Hmmm sounds like Ms Window's .
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort,
and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,
and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash,
and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash,
then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house,
says the network is connected to the button on your mouse,
but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's
repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.
And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss,
so your icons in the window are as wavy as a sause; then you
may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet,
the sucker's gonna hang.
When the copy on your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the
macro code instructions is causing unnecessary risk, then you'll
have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM, and
then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!

Everything I learn gives me another way to say \"OOPS!\" :oops:
Hmmm sounds like Ms Window's .
Wenn Sie Spaß meines Englisch mich Willensfuckingtötung Sie bilden.
Deffinitely Micro-crash!
Everything I learn gives me another way to say \"OOPS!\" :oops:
BTW, How often do you degauss? I used to degauss twice daily, but it's been a good 8 months since I've consciously thought of doing it, except when looking at new monitors, and noticing if they have a neat little button that does it for you....
:?: Degauss :?:
What's that? Powering on a monitor degauses each time. Presently, I'm using a 17 inch panel display. My 15 and 19 inch CRT monitors are down in the basement awaiting emergency time should this display poop out.
Everything I learn gives me another way to say \"OOPS!\" :oops:
degauss?? NEVER!!

S.T.Dupont associates the French excellence with Streamline, legendary movement which transformed the American industrial design in the 30s, and creates a new line of writing: STREAMLINE-R.
His dynamic design, purified with slightly curved lines, is inspired by the fallen of the drop which symbolizes the perfect forms of the aerodynamism.
Of new design, the line Streamline-R is mainly realized in CERAMIUM A.C.T ., the new revolutionary material was created by S.T.Dupont. Alliance of the ceramic and the aluminum, the Ceramium A.C.T. gets an incomparable lightness while insuring a resistance of very high level.
In matt or grey black brushed metal, the collection Streamline-R comes in fluid ball, roller and golden feather 14ct.
Every pen is accompanied with its pencil box, so becoming an object of unique decoration.
S.T.Dupont imagined Line D as a masculine and traditional line with generous and established proportions. The curved and harmonious form of the cap combines with the smooth lines of the barrel to provide a simple, timeless elegance.
Elegance, noble materials, quality and tradition are the values expressed by this line of writing instruments.
Crafted from metal, the weight of each Line D pens is just right, providing reassurance when handled: "The weight of excellence".
The highest-performing and most precise pen of its generation. Designed as a truly sophisticated object, like a fighter jet, its dynamic, vigorous and elegant design makes it both contemporary and masculine at the same time.
Its innovative and unique construction combines a high precision injected metal frame, finished in palladium, and a carbon fiber body.
Never before has a pen provided you with such an intense and rapid gliding sensation.
The Défi pen will delight you with its clear, precise and fluid writing.
Faithful to its philosophy of excellence cultivated since 1872, S.T.Dupont has created "Liberté" a new collection of writing instruments devoted entirely to women.
The rounded ends, emphasized by a slender, slightly cone-shaped body, illustrate the perfect proportions of an object imbued with noble Sensuality.
The beautiful contrasting materials, palladium and lacquer, highlight the exquisitely refined details of the Liberté line. The top of the cap, perfectly faceted like a brilliant cut diamond, bears the seal of the brand. The faceted clip decorates the pen with a touch of sparkle.
Jackie Kennedy loved her Dupont lighter so much that in 1973 she ordered a matching pen. So S.T.Dupont hit on the idea of reproducing the roller of the lighter as the body of a pen. Another Dupont icon was born: the "Classique". With its slender form, the first luxury ballpoint became symbolic of modern design.
Again, the workshop brought forward its exceptional craftsmanship. A new product, a new sensation: people went wild for the Classique, not only for its impeccable looks, but also its perfect balance and fluid writing.
Iconic to the brand, its fine and slender shape still appeals today.
More than just a writing instrument, the new line Jet 8 Pen enables its owners to express their own style and creativity thanks to a large range of bright, lively colours.
The Jet 8 Pen is a ballpoint, with a unique design, dynamic and contemporary, combining a metallic structure and a high-density composite body.
Easy to use, light and extremely well balanced, the Jet 8 Pen fits perfectly in the hand. Its special ultra-glide ink offers an exceptional writing experience.
Our Collection - Pens
So much more than a mere writing instrument, the pen resembles a gem that carries within it all the memories of an entire life. Developed by the very best master goldsmiths and master lacquerers, S.T.Dupont pens meet the demands of connoisseurs with consummate skill.
With the beauty of their lines, the precious nature of their materials, the accuracy instilled by their weight, and the suppleness of their handling — more than ever before, these are exceptional objects destined to give pleasure to their users.
Fashioned from metal to give superior strength, the S.T.Dupont pen takes shape in the hands of our master craftsmen over the course of 150 separate processes. The metalwork, the application of the lacquer, and the combination of exceptional materials are the result of invaluable know-how handed down from generation to generation.
The nib is subject to meticulous attention: in solid gold, each nib is handcrafted and polished by our Master Craftsman giving a superlative quality to writing.
Symbols of elegance and culture, these pens have been part of the French luxury tradition cultivated by S.T.Dupont since 1872. As a result, they celebrate beautifully an art of living that is also the art of writing... the story of your life.

By Megan Fleet
Apple's iPhone and iPad are undoubtedly two of its most iconic products. They were also revolutionary, creating demand for tablets, smartphones and apps that tied into customers' existing iTunes infrastructure. With these kinds of accolades and cult-like following, there have been twinges of disappointment for Apple's more recent launches of the iPad2 and iPhone 4S as they were so comparable in "look" and functionality at first glance.
This trend towards subtlety (and maybe towards a safer path in the post-Jobs era?), looks to be continuing with the iPad3. Attendees to the Consumer Electronics Show this past week could have perused the Apple booth and have had the iPad3 right in front of them without recognizing it as a the latest version of the tablet.
Like the iPhone 4S, there are differences, but touting this particular version as the iPad3 instead of the iPad2 or some other such moniker seems a bit overdone. This potential newest tablet addition has a body that is approximately 1mm thicker than its antecedent. For cases and various other accessories this minimal change will allow customers to recycle their previous purchases. The exception is for those protective cases designed to be exactly form fitting.
Another similarity to the iPhones 4S, this latest iPad contender has a noticeably larger rear camera, but does not have the LED flash. These improved features in camera quality and images will win over some customers. But, the front of the device is very much the same as the iPad2.
Enhance your mobility and turn your device into a power tool! Discover select accessories such as; stylus & pens, micro SD memory cards, batteries, docking stations, Bluetooth headsets, data cables and glider gloves all specifically designed to make your devices functionally efficient and performance rich.
The iLouge writer who viewed the device at CES did note that the display model appeared to be six months old or so. That particular detail points to the many possible changes that could take place in revamping the iPad3 in the coming months. As we await the actual release of the tablet, current Apple users can continue to indulge their love of accessories without fear of them being obsolete when the new kid in town makes its debut.

Please note they may have their own privacy policy which we encourage you to read and understand.

California Online Privacy Protection Act Statement
In response to the recently enacted law A.B. 370, amending the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA), AVG states the following:
(1) Because AVG does not "track" the people who visit its website, AVG.com does not respond to "do not track" signals sent from web browsers.
(2) When people visit AVG.com, AVG does not allow third parties to collect personally identifiable information (PII) about an individual's online activities undertaken over time and/or across different websites.
What does this mean for you?
As "The Online Security Company", AVG Technologies knows that you care about how your PII is used and shared. AVG is in the security business to protect you—and keep you educated as well. The following background information will help you learn some more about the key terms around the DNT concept and how AVG continues to respect your privacy.
What is Do Not Track?
DNT is a concept introduced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for the Internet industry. It is designed to help the industry develop and implement a mechanism that would provide you with a choice. Specifically, DNT is a way for you to choose whether you want to allow websites to collect information about your Internet activity when browsing, which could be principally used to deliver targeted advertisements to your devices.
What is a DNT signal?
A DNT signal carries information about your tracking preferences, which is sent to the online service operator, such as a website (here, AVG). Technically speaking, the usual means of delivering this signal is through a DNT header set in your browser.
How does AVG respond to the signal?
While there is no single set of guidance on how to address the CalOPPA requirements, we can faithfully disclose how AVG responds to the DNT signals it receives.
Being a security and privacy company, our practices as such are privacy aware.
Currently, AVG does not respond to the DNT signals because we do not "track" our users. In other words, AVG's practice does not meet the definitions of "tracking" as outlined in the above mentioned opinions. AVG does not provide people's PII to third parties (unless these parties supply AVG with outsourced services, which then makes them subject to AVG's policies). Additionally, AVG never combines your collected PII with tracking data collected on other web sites.
Does AVG allow third parties to collect PII about your online activities over time and across different Web sites when you use our web site?
No. From our site you may be able to access other sites, such as when you access Facebook or Twitter via a link that you click. This action is subject to the policies and practices of those companies.
This Fair Processing Notice and our Privacy Policy is AVG's commitment to protecting your privacy. AVG protects your information from unauthorized use or loss and will only pass your data to our business partners, to fulfill your requirements or where we are required to do so by law. The information we collect from you may be used by AVG worldwide, including countries that may have weaker data privacy laws than your country.
The information AVG and AVG's products collect from your computer is utilized in product and security improvement, to transmit messages to your computer or to generate e-mail marketing.
You may opt-out of e-mail marketing at any time by clicking the relevant link in the e-mail message or contacting customer support at www.avg.com/support..

Boyd, Conforto earn Pac-12 honors
WALNUT CREEK, Calif. – Oregon State senior left-handed pitcher Matt Boyd and sophomore outfielder Michael Conforto led the third-ranked Beavers to a sweep of 20th-ranked Arizona over the weekend.
On Tuesday, the duo produced another sweep.
Boyd was named the Pac-12 Conference's Pitcher of the Week and Conforto the league's player of the week. It's the first sweep of the Pac-12's weekly awards for the Beavers since 2006 when Mitch Canham (player) and Dallas Buck (pitcher) were honored on May 23.
Each picked up their second honor of the season Tuesday.
For Boyd, the award comes on the heels of a seven-inning, two-hit performance against Arizona, which came into the series with a robust .328 batting average. He ended the night with six strikeouts en route to his fourth win of the season. In the process, he became the school's all-time leader in winning percentage, at .938, as he stands at 15-1 during his four-year career.
The lefty is 4-0 with a 1.59 earned run average in five starts this season. Opponents are batting .214 against hi m and he has walked just six while striking out a team-best 31 batters.
Conforto, meanwhile, capped off his five-game week with a home run Sunday that gave the Beavers a 1-0 lead en route to an 8-4 win over the Wildcats, which OSU its first-ever sweep in Tucson. He finished the week 8-for-19 (.421) with two home runs and four RBI. His first home run of the weekend came in the first inning Friday night against Arizona. The three-run shot helped pace OSU to the 6-2 win.
Conforto leads the team with a .380 batting average and has a team-leading six home runs with 21 RBI. The six home runs also leads the Pac-12 while his 21 RBI are good for third.
The Beavers have three Pac-12 Player of the Week honors this season, giving them 63 all-time. OSU, meanwhile, has two pitcher of the week awards, placing the club at 68 all-time.
Oregon State returns home Friday to open a three-game series with Arizona State. First pitch Friday is 5:35 p.m., Saturday is 2:05 p.m. and Sunday is 12:05 p.m. Sunday's game will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks and the other two can be seen live for free on pac-12.com/live/osubeavers.aspx.

STOP THE CON CON Compact for America: Next Threat to Constitution
The movement across the country to restore the Constitution via a Balanced Budget Amendment, has encountered a fork in the road. The correct path is for States to use the power of Nullification provided to them within our Constitution. The incorrect path is to propose new amendments to "fix" the Constitution by calling a Constitutional Convention, also known as a Con Con.
The Constitution is not broken. it does not need to be fixed. It is ignored. It needs to be obeyed.
This presentation will start by reviewing previous attempts of a Con Con and why this is so dangerous to our Constitution. We will also touch on the proper way the States can invoke the power already given to them to strengthen the 10th Amendment and take back our country from the runaway train, the Federal government.
|Location Covenant Presbyterian Church, 520 Kings Highway South, Cherry Hill, NJ
|This event is open to the public and is being hosted by the Cherry Hill Tea Party. Visit http://www.meetup.com/SouthJerseyJBS/events/99904722/ for more info.

The sweltering and sticky heat that occurs at this time of year can make dressing for evening an unpleasant task. So what's a style-minded girl to do? Cue this season's strapless trend: an easy and stylish solution to those hotter-than-hot summer nights! This practical and carefree silhouette is your best bet when it comes to assembling an outfit that is comfortable, uncomplicated, and chic all at the same time. Already a look beloved by the likes of Taylor Tomasi Hill and Zoe Kravitz, strapless tops and dresses are a foolproof choice for both casual weekend outings and dressed-up soirees. Just be sure to jot down some key style notes from today's How They Wear story to ensure your strapless ensemble makes a memorable statement too!
Strapless Tops
Zoe Kravitz
Photographed arriving at the Chanel "The Little Black Jacket" exhibition in New York last month, Kravitz wore a black leather strapless top and white tweed skirt from the Chanel S/S 12 collection. The edgy top acts as the perfect contrast to the skirt's prim, ladylike look, resulting in an uptown-meets-downtown outcome ideal for an after-hours event.
Get The Look: Susana Monaco Tube Top ($71); Plein Sud Bustier Tube Top ($1157.50); J. Crew Pencil Skirt in Hologram Tweed ($395).
The stylish singer turned up at Roc Nation's pre-Grammy brunch in Los Angeles earlier this year wearing a Bottega Veneta bustier top and wide-leg trousers from the brand's Resort 12 collection. The juxtaposition of the corseted top and languid pants makes this a chic and comfortable combination you can wear to cocktails with friends.
Get The Look: What Goes Around Comes Around Snake-Print Jumpsuit ($405); Bottega Veneta Cotton and Linen-Blend Corset Top ($368); Club Monaco Lesley Wide Leg Pants ($149.50).
Taylor Tomasi Hill
Moda Operandi's Artistic Director assembled a flashbulb-worthy ensemble at the CFDA Awards last month, courtesy of Josh Goot's New Cocktail Corset Top ($900, 212.524.9770) in Flower Bomb Black, an Altuzarra skirt, and fringe sandals. An oversized motif and of-the-moment peplum silhouette make this strapless top event-appropriate, while black accents keep the entire outfit feeling sleek.
Get The Look: Waverly Grey's Dusk Leaves Corset Top ($40); Modcloth's Tra La La Bustier Top ($65); DKNY Pencil Skirt ($79); Emilio Pucci Wool & Silk Pencil Skirt ($795)
Strapless Dresses
Alexa Chung
During London Fashion Week back in February, the British tastemaker dressed to the nines for the Stella McCartney presentation in a black strapless satin gown by said designer. A floor-grazing silhouette and minimalist cut, along with Chung's decision to opt out of any jewelry or accessories, lend the dress its dramatic and elegant look.
Get The Look: Lupita Strapless Double Layered Dress ($156); Wilt Strapless Maxi Dress ($167); A.B.S. by Allen Schwartz Side-Pleated Strapless Evening Gown ($270).
Lauren Santo Domingo
The Moda Operandi co-founder looked ravishing at the Runway to Win event during New York Fashion Week a few months ago, where she wore Proenza Schouler's Croc Strapless Dress with Belt ($4435). Paired with ankle-strap heels and Proenza Schouler's PS1 Pochette Leather Clutch ($895), the dress' luxe reptilian bodice and green skirt is both sophisticated and playful, making the outfit a pitch-perfect choice for a fashionable fete under the stars.
Get The Look: Reverse Aztec Bustier Dress ($75); Alice + Olivia Elena Strapless Dress ($396); Mango Touch Twin Ankle Strap Pumps ($130).
Tibi Look 15 from S/S 12 collection
Thanks to the addition of the bright yellow Silk Linen Blazer (price upon request, 212.226.5852)--draped nonchalantly on the shoulders--and the Stella Heels($375), Tibi's Matte Jersey Strapless Dress ($420, 212.226.5852) easily transitions from resort getaway to office chic.
Get The Look: Tinley Road Bleecker Blazer ($79) in Canary Yellow; Rag & Bone Silver Tuxedo Blazer ($345); Gap Pintucked Strapless Dress ($60); BB Dakota Gisela Strapless Dress ($85).--Jessica Baker

US PGA: Rory McIlroy 'on way to greatness', says Montgomerie
US PGA Championship
Venue: Valhalla, Kentucky Dates: 7-10 August
Coverage: Daily reports on BBC Sport website, live text and radio commentary of the last two days on the BBC Sport website, BBC Radio 5 live sports extra and BBC Radio 5 live
Former European Ryder Cup skipper Colin Montgomerie believes Rory McIlroy is "on his way to greatness" heading into the final major of the year.
McIlroy is the justifiable hot favourite for the US PGA Championship, which starts at Valhalla in Kentucky on Thursday. The 25-year-old is fresh from dominant victories at the Open and WGC Invitational in Akron, Ohio.
Those wins have taken McIlroy back to the top of the world rankings and Montgomerie echoes the view of most observers that the Northern Ireland star is the man to beat this week.
"When he plays well, he is the best player in the world," Montgomerie told BBC Sport. "We have a rightful number one in the world, with all respect to everyone else.
"When he plays his best, he wins. I could have said the same about Tiger Woods in the year 2000 when he was proving it. Now McIlroy is proving it as well."
Montgomerie is in the PGA field courtesy of his victory in the Seniors' PGA Championship earlier in the season, the first of two major wins on the veterans' circuit this year.
The Scot is convinced McIlroy can go on to make it three victories in a row following his triumphs at Hoylake and then Firestone last Sunday.
"Having played the course I can say it suits him down to the ground," Montgomerie added.
"This is like a Congressional [where McIlroy won the US Open in 2011], which suits Rory. There's bunkers out there at 300 yards he doesn't see. I see them as sight bunkers to lay up on - it's a whole different ball game."
Although Montgomerie never tasted victory in a major, he knows all about collecting wins with more than 30 to his name in a glittering European Tour career. The 51-year-old has been impressed with the maturity McIlroy is now showing.
"He's taken a few years to learn how to react and how to cope with stardom. It's not easy, living one's life in the public eye. He's managed it very well, especially over the last month.
"I expect he is going to go on and win here as well and make that four majors now. He's on his way to greatness."
Montgomerie is thrilled to be back on golf's big stage having not played one of the big four tournaments since missing the cut at the 2010 PGA. He believes his impressive displays on the Champions Tour can act as a springboard for personal success this week.
"It's great to be back in this fold and to see everybody again," he said.
But does he think the standard of golf he's produced this summer is good enough to contend this week? "I hate to say it, but I think it is," he claimed.
"This course is very long; it's 7500 yards. We tend to play courses on the seniors at around 7,000 so it's about 40 yards a hole longer.
"That's the issue. The rest is OK. I can hit the fairways and I can get up and down but it's the length of the second shots into the greens that is going to be an issue here.
"But at the same time I'm ready for the competition. This is, though, a whole different ball game when you're playing against Rory McIlroy and friends, who hit the ball out of sight."
McIlroy is at the vanguard of a new generation that is taking over the game. All three major winners this year are repeat champions after Bubba Watson added a second Masters Green Jacket and 2010 PGA winner Martin Kaymer ran away with the US Open at Pinehurst.
Victory at Royal Liverpool provided McIlroy with his third major title.
His most likely challengers at Valhalla are 2013 Masters winner Adam Scott, whom he deposed as world number one, and last year's US Open champion Justin Rose.
Rickie Fowler, fifth at the Masters and joint runner-up at both Pinehurst and Hoylake, has been the most consistent major performer this year. The young American should not be discounted.
And Sergio Garcia's growing maturity suggests he will rebound from his near misses at the Open and Akron, where he was twice second to McIlroy, rather than fade from the limelight as he has done in the past.
Rarely in recent years have we had so many of the same generation in such enticing form heading into a major. It suggests a special week in Kentucky.
It already is for Monty, as he relishes the prospect of another crack at golf at the highest level.

RM sublime again today. Some tired "old" golfers left in his wake as the guard changes.

Dreadful listening to Ewen Murray and Butch saying Tiger should walk off course now cos he can't make the cut... People would go ape if he did! He has started to tournament and should finish it!
Comment number 296. Posted by Stevieon 8 Aug 2014 18:26
It really doesn't matter much who the picks are for Europe. Any three of those mentioned will do the job. The US team is falling apart as injury after injury seems to emerge. Losing e.g. Woods, Kuchar and Dufner would be a huge dent in any team. It would certainly be a very brave man that leaves out Poulter, the greatest scrapper there is.....
Comment number 295. Posted by WCIHISon 8 Aug 2014 16:45
@DBF and others. It is difficult to compare a players form over a 72 hole stroke play tournament and a match play competition. Completely different mindset. Experience will be essential in the RC and Poults comes alive and is an inspiration to the rest of the team. If he doesn't play his way in through the points list. He HAS to be the first pick.
Comment number 294. Posted by Stevieon 8 Aug 2014 16:35
When Rory gets to 8 majors then let's START talking about him maybe being one of the all-time greats. Faldo won 6 and is not regarded as a true "great", other than in his time. And just to contradictory to my own argument, Ballesteros won only 5 but was definitely one.... Hm!
Comment number 293. Posted by Captain quirkon 8 Aug 2014 16:29
PMG has no standing in the game? Apart from his experience in the game,in the Ryder cup(sinking the winning putt), being picked as Ryder cup captain for 2014, being one of the most popular golfers on tour, respected by players and fans alike. Apart from that yeah he has no standing in the game.
Comment number 292. Posted by DBFon 8 Aug 2014 16:17
Poulter should not get a pick just based on medinah. Yeah he raises his game but one man team he is not. GMAC is equally as good a player for the big occasion and has more form having won the French open and top ten at hoylake.
Watson has the bigger pick headache surrounding Woods as he will not make their team on merit and if he picks him who does he pair him with?
Comment number 291. Posted by jamesmathewon 8 Aug 2014 14:24
Poulter has to be picked. He is a ryder cup animal and the Americans will hate to see him coming. GMC shouldn't be picked. Lee had a 62 last week and leading this week. I would pick him on that as its match play. Luke needs to prove himself this week or he wont be picked. Id love all 4 on the team.
Comment number 290. Posted by JDandfrieson 8 Aug 2014 14:06
I'd have Poulter in regardless, I don't like him but he is a great guy to have in your team especially in match play.
there are a few to choose from, but I just think he should go on form, but doubt he will
Comment number 289. Posted by JDandfrieson 8 Aug 2014 13:51
Agree, winning majors does not make u a leader, Faldo awful etc etc, but I reckon (hypothetically of course) that if Faldo didn't pick Poulter he would get less stick than McGinley would, hence he might not have the balls to not pick him.
@James - stop disagreeing, the convenient 'fallacy' that we are one in the same will be dispelled.

It looks like it is going to be Verizon's year considering the number of quality products it has lined up for release this year. Motorola Unlocked Droid (2), Blackberry Storm 3, Blackberry Curve 3 and 10.1-inch tablet are all set to be released by the end of this year which means that there is going to be a huge buzz surrounding Verizon this year.
The rumors have already started with the surfacing of a few Droid 2 images. This comes fresh after rumors were doing the rounds about Droid 2 releasing along with a two blackberry devices. The images have served up the rumors to be pushed to the fact that the Droid 2 is supposed to have 5 MP camera fitted together with a 1 GHz processor. It is also believed that it will have a QWERTY keyboard and Android option. The images have all the more confirmed the fact that the Droid 2 will be launched soon, maybe even as early as August.
A couple of Blackberry phones are also likely to be launched soon. There is talk of Blackberry Storm 3 and Unlocked Blackberry (Curve 3) being the ones. The Blackberry Storm 3 is supposed to have SurePress and will run on LTE. The Blackberry phones will have other new features which have not been clearly understood. The Blackberry Storm 3 may have OS 6, but details on this matter are not available.
The 10.1-inch tablet can be more or less confirmed to be a rumor and there is a maximum possibility of a 7.9 or 8-inch tablet. Even that is releasing next year.
Even if the tablet does not release this year, Verizon may be on the verge of a highly successful year with a series of much-hyped products ready for launch. It is only a matter of time before we know more about these fascinating devices.

Ford and Big 5 Sporting Goods have both engaged their customers through mobile media recently by using Tag.
Ford has developed an in-market, direct mail campaign integrating a gorgeously tailored custom Tag into its material. While print media has its limitations – from amount of space to viewers' attention spans – Tag can unlock endless information online. With a custom Tag showing off Ford's newest models, the readers are invited to "experience Ford technology" their way.
Ford's Tags link to online videos showing off the latest models like the 2012 Focus or the 2011 Explorer in action. Also promoted by the Tag campaign is a $750 Private Cash offer. The unique Tag and the videos go a long way to grab the readers' attention, and the offer seals the deal.
In a different strategy, Big 5 Sporting Goods is using Tags in-store as part of an interactive, multimedia shopping experience. Over 50 different Tags are scattered throughout Big 5's locations, providing product info sheets and videos to educate customers about the items they're most curious about, right there on the sales floor. Providing Big 5 customers with product information via Tag enables them to make educated decisions about their purchases, without needing to search the web.
Would learning more about a big (or not-so-big) purchase by scanning a Tag make you more likely to buy it? Could Ford or Big 5 have used more Tag ideas to connect with customers? Let us know in the comments below or on Tag's Facebook or Twitter pages.

Patagonia Belts, Gloves & Scarves
- 0 Items
- 0 Items
When it comes to preparing for an outdoor adventure, true innovation lies in the details. Sure, everyone knows you need a high-quality ski jacket before you hit the slopes, and hitting the surf in the early morning is best done with a wetsuit, but what about all those accessories that make the journey pleasant?
As you head out to explore your favorite part of the world, don't forget to take your Patagonia gloves, scarves, belts and other accessories along for the ride. They might not be the flashiest pieces of equipment you'll ever own, but these items tend to make a big difference once you hit the trail.
Patagonia Accessories Take You Further
Although Patagonia is most known for its backpacks and climbing gear like heavy-duty jackets and performance wear, the company has long been providing high-end accessories to complement any outdoor adventure.
In fact, one look at the Tech Web Belt, and you'll see where the company's ingenuity comes into play. This simple web belt with an aluminum buckle looks basic enough, but with a built-in bottle opener and quick-drying polyester that can double as an emergency lash strap, this Patagonia belt does triple duty.
For just as much resourcefulness in Patagonia scarves, look for options like the Micro D Gaiter or this moisture-wicking Sun Mask. What look like (and act as) squares of fabric for holding back your hair or adding an extra layer of warmth are actually detailed pieces of equipment that are designed for use in the most extreme temperatures. Versatile, breathable, and functional, you'll wonder how you ever got by without them.
When you purchase Patagonia gear, you aren't just getting an article of clothing – you're buying equipment that's been engineered and designed for the toughest treks. Push harder and succeed more. The right equipment will take you there.
The products in the Patagonia Belts, Gloves & Scarves category have an average rating of 5 of 5 from 2 customer reviews.

Hello everyone!
My name is Dustin and I'm a 30 year old APBT owner from Goodyear, Arizona. These two are my first APBT's and to be honest, were not the dogs I was originally looking for. I've owned dogs all my life including wolf hybrids, GSD's, Great Danes, German Short Hairs, and a Blue Tick Coon Hound. I have learned a lot about this breed and have become completely enamored.
My two dogs are Dodger and Ivy, both with very differing personalities. The first one I'd like to introduce is Dodger, he is a 5 year old rescue from the unit at which I work. He was seized from an owner who was not caring for him or his mate and puppies. He had severe valley fever and was extremely emaciated. During his time at the unit I began training him and then began to realize how intelligent and playful the breed was. It took a few months but I was eventually able to convince the girlfriend to let me bring him home. He now believes he is her lap dog and she treats him as if hes her baby. They are inseparable.
Dodger and his Girl, my daughter, Zoe.
Onto Ivy, our puppy. After bringing Dodger home we began associating him with dogs at the local dog park. It took about two visits (and prior months of training, teaching him I was the alpha and getting him use to commands), until I was comfortable with him at the park. During our time there we met a very nice gentleman named Kevin who had the cutest puppy who matched Dodger's colors. Her name was Ivy and they played together great. We talked to Kevin for about an hour while our pups played and discovered he might have to find Ivy a new home. He only had her for about a week (She arrived the Wednesday Prior, it was a Sunday, from IronKing Kennels in Florida. He had spent a lot of money on getting her to Arizona) but his mother, who was in her late 70's and his ONLY family, was terrified of her. She was only 4 months old, who could be scared of a puppy! But regardless, he needed to find her a home and she was welcome in our house. We were not really looking for an addition, but Dodger seemed to get along great and it only gave him someone to play with when we were not home. 3 months have passed and they are now the best of friends.
Doing what she does best
Happy pups!
Sibling Rivalry!
The previously unmentioned Queen of the Roost, Carolina
Then there is the Queen of the Roost, my 12 year old DSH Cat, Carolina. She has seen several dogs in her time and is not impressed/scared/or even lightly concerned about them. She smacks them both around regularly and they are both terrified of her. I honestly believe she might be the evil incarnate.
I am an avid mountain biker, online gamer (Titanfall Incoming!), and a Paleo believer. I have lost 150 pounds in a year by following that lifestyle and will never give it up. I work for the Sheriff's Department for the MCSO MASH Unit (http://www.mcso.org/mash/ -- Where Dodger came from). I build computers on the side and am currently attending classes to become a certified dog trainer and hopefully getting Dodger certified as a therapy dog!

|Construction led to computer thefts
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Tuesday, 10 July 2007 20:00
Construction at West Wilkes High School is believed to
be responsible for security breaches that resulted in the alleged theft of
$12,300 worth of computer equipment.
Sometime in the past week, according to deputies, equipment including three Macintosh computers, a hard drive, and four data projectors disappeared from the campus. Several doors have been unlocked this summer due to the ongoing construction projects, and deputies say that's probably how the alleged thief got to the computers. The equipment was allegedly stolen from the library. Serial numbers will be entered into a national crime database, officials say. Wilkes deputies have no suspects at this time.

Submission World on course for catastrophic 6C rise->
jamie writes: "The world is now firmly on course for the worst-case scenario in terms of climate change, with average global temperatures rising by up to 6C by the end of the century, leading scientists said yesterday. Such a rise — which would be much higher nearer the poles — would have cataclysmic and irreversible consequences for the Earth, making large parts of the planet uninhabitable and threatening the basis of human civilisation."

Our response to the FCC on Google Voice
In our response today to the FCC's inquiry about Google Voice, we announced that our engineers have developed a tailored solution for restricting calls to specific numbers engaged in what some have called high-cost "traffic pumping" schemes, like adult chat and "free" conference call lines.
We went to work on this fix because earlier this year, we noticed an extremely high number of calls were being made to an extremely small number of destinations. In fact, the top 10 telephone prefixes -- the area code plus the first three digits of a seven digit number, e.g., 555-555-XXXX -- generated more than 160 times the expected traffic volumes, and accounted for a whopping 26 percent of our monthly connection costs.
To prevent these schemes from exploiting the free nature of Google Voice -- making it harder for us to offer this new service to users -- we began restricting calls to certain telephone number prefixes. But over the past few weeks, we've been looking at ways to do this on a more granular level. We told the FCC today that Google Voice now restricts calls to fewer than 100 specific phone numbers, all of which we have good reason to believe are engaged in traffic pumping schemes.
While we've developed a fix to address this problem, the bottom line is that we still believe the Commission needs to repair our nation's broken carrier compensation system. The current system simply does not serve consumers well and these types of schemes point up the pressing need for reform.
7 comments:
You write "Commission needs to repair our nation's broken carrier compensation system."ReplyDelete
Amen to that. Question: can Google publish a link here to its clearest, most comprehensive statement (FCC comments, whatever) as to what a reasonable intercarrier compensation scheme would look like?
Thank you,
Chris Witteman
Go Google! I've often wondered why it is that the PSTN is so superior and access to it so sacrosanct that PSTN carriers feel they may gouge any other would-be provider that wants to connect to its network and customers. Frankly, the PSTN industry risks marginalizing itself, when it becomes just one more off ramp (with limited functionality) on the IP network of networks. Just because they had the lion's share of the customers and minutes (and revenue) yesterday, does not mean they will have all that tomorrow. Perhaps some day PSTN carriers would be willing to pay the IP community for access to its ever-expanding member base. If so, perhaps all providers could freely negotiate interconnection in a peering-like relationship, without one party being able to wield unfair bargaining power simply because it controls most of the users. Some day, when we have the bigger or more desirable sandbox, I think that all providers will have to end the practice of exacting unfair access rates to allow the less powerful to reach potential customers. Remember the Golden Rule?ReplyDelete
So why this Gizmo conference number (605) 475-8515 still being blocked?ReplyDelete
Is it considered as a "traffic pumping"?
I'd say this sounds like a little bit of hoist by your own Network Neutrality petard.ReplyDelete
Congratulations. There will no doubt be more.
Hey, I really appreciate it, you guys are doing the right thing.ReplyDelete
We're going to find that these pumpers will adapt quickly, much like the professionals of spam. It's likely to be whack-a-mole for what seems like eons...ReplyDelete
The problem here is that Google is still blocking consumer access to an exchange that the FCC has ruled ALL consumers have a right to access.ReplyDelete
I guess Google's motto is "Do no evil... unless it costs us money."
Blocking consumer access is not the right thing to do. The right thing to do is to gather arms with the other companies who also have this problem and mount both a legal campaign to end this terror by rural exchanges, and mount a public awareness campaign so that citizens demand better service.

BUFFALO, NY - At Rascals on Niagara Street on Buffalo's Westside, the most important words outside the restaurant are "We're Back, Now Open."
The popular take out and dine in restaurant had been closed for almost five years.
2 On Your Side's Jeff Preval took a look inside to find out what's new.
The traditional foods like burgers and hot dogs are back. Beer-battered fish fry is also back. So are chicken wings and barbecue brisket.
"There's not a whole lot of brisket out there; ours is better, that's what's different," said Mark DiMartile, the owner of Rascals on Niagara.
He's resurrected the restaurant, which has changed ownership and suffered some setbacks when it was burglarized two years ago.
REPORTER: How does it feel to be open?
DIMARTILE: After a year and three months working on this building it feels great.
REPORTER: What's the community reaction been in the two weeks you've been open?
DIMARTILE: Ah, it's phenomenal, it's amazing how many people walk in and can't believe we're open again and the neighborhood's been lit up. So it's been really good business is good, we're getting the word out more and more everyday, it seems like more people are coming in so, it's been really nice.
REPORTER: You guys have been closed for about four or five years or so, what's the big difference with Rascals now, compared to then?
DIMARTILE: There's not a whole lot, maybe the menu's more condensed because we're trying to introduce a simpler menu, as we pick up more customers, we get busy again, we're just trying to learn it all over again.
Clam chowder, corn on the cob and various ice cream flavors are also here. Rascals is looking to expand their menu by boosting the clam stand to have lobster, shrimp cocktail and more barbeque are on the way.
In the past, Rascals has been a seasonal restaurant, it now plans to stay open all year round, but it's going to feel out, in the fall time, on whether it wants to stay open the entire year.
Rascals is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and on Sunday 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Learn more about Rascals at RascalsOnNiagara.com.

#23 Volleyball Prevails Over Lipscomb in Battle of League Favorites
LAWRENCE, Kan. -- The No. 23 Creighton Volleyball team opened up the 2014 season with a hard-fought 3-1 victory over Atlantic Sun Conference favorite Lipscomb on Friday morning at the Kansas Invitational in Lawrence, Kan.
Scores of the match in favor of CU were 29-31, 25-17, 26-24, 26-24.
Creighton improves to 6-0 while winning its program-record sixth straight season-opener. Lipscomb dropped to 0-1 with the setback, losing for the first time in three meetings against the Bluejays.
Following the match, Creighton head coach Kirsten Bernthal Booth was pleased with her team's resolve late in the third and fourth sets.
"We were up 24-22 in game one and dropped it, and in game three were were up 24-22 and let them come back in. We need to close out when we have opportunities. I am pleased that once they got back to 24-24, that we were able to push back and win. Two senior-laden teams, both teams have a lot of experience on the court and I think you could see that both teams were performing at a high-level at the end of the game."
The teams started the season with a barn-burner featuring 12 ties and five lead changes before the Lady Bisons won a 31-29 nailbiter. Creighton had leads of 20-16 and 24-21 it could not protect. In fact, the Bluejays would have set point opportunities at 24-21, 24-22, 24-23, 25-24, 27-26, 28-27 and 29-28 before three straight kills by Lipscomb won the set, including the clincher on a kill by Lauren Ford.
Kelli Browning, Lauren Smith and Leah McNary each had four kills in the first set for CU, while Kate Elman had eight digs. Creighton hit .300 in the frame while Lipscomb hit .354 on 23 kills, including seven by Brittnay Estes.
Creighton never trailed in the second set, racing to a 10-4 lead that was quickly extended to 17-8. CU hit .455 in the second set, including four kills from McNary and Smith, and limited LU to .226 hitting.
Creighton overcame a 15-11 deficit in the third frame to post a 26-24 victory and take a 2-1 lead in the match. Katie Neisler sparked a 7-0 run by the Bluejays to reclaim the edge, only to have the Lady Bisons answer to take a 20-19 advantage. A 5-1 run gave Creighton a 24-21 lead after Smith and Neisler combined for a block. Just like the first set, Lipscomb rallied back to knot the score at 24-all. This time, Creighton would take care of business, as McNary's fifth termination of the frame gave the Jays the victory.
Creighton led most of the fourth set, only to see Lipscomb tie the score at 19-19 and 20-20. Creighton squandered two match point chances at 24-22 and 24-23 before converting its third try at 25-24 via Browning's 14th kill of the match.
McNary led the Bluejays with 16 kills on .419 hitting in 31 swings, while Browning and Melanie Jereb each had 14 kills and one error each. Smith added 10 kills and eight blocks, while Elman recorded a match-best 27 digs. Creighton had 67 kills, four aces, 75 digs and 15 blocks while hitting .296 as a unit.
Lipscomb was paced by Estes, who turned in a triple-double with 12 kills, 12 digs and 10 assists. Ford paced all players with 18 kills while adding 11 digs, while Kayla Ostrom had 44 assists and 12 digs in her debut as the team's starting setter. Lipscomb had 64 kills, four aces, 77 digs and 10 blocks while hitting .233 overall.
Creighton returns to action at 5:30 pm tonight with a contest against Utah Valley (0-1). The Wolverines were swept by No. 22 Kansas, 25-11, 25-16, 25-18 in the second match of the day.
NOTES: Maggie Baumert's start marked the sixth straight year a Bluejay newcomer has started the season-opener. Baumert is a transfer who spent the previous three seasons at the University of Georgia ...Katie Neisler's five kills tied a career-best, first done in the 2011 season opener vs. UTSA ...This was the third straight season that Creighton won its season opener despite dropping the opening set, having also won in four sets in 2012 vs. UCF and last year vs. No. 13 BYU ... Creighton has now won 50 straight matches in which it has taken a 2-1 lead ... Jereb's 14 kills were the most she's had since Nov. 23, 2012 ... Creighton improved to 18-5 all-time when playing as a ranked team, including a 17-2 mark versus unranked teams ... With 27 digs, Elman moved from ninth to seventh place in CU history with 1,149 career digs.

MASSENA A Massena man involved with the Little League program is proposing an indoor athletic complex that would locate outdoor sports centrally at Bushnell Field.
Peter D. Firnstein told Massena Joint Recreation Commission members Tuesday the setup with Little League fields at Springs Park and on North Main Street poses safety and handicapped-accessibility issues that could be resolved by creating a sports complex.
Its a parking nightmare on North Main if 20 teams are there, he said, noting spectators often have to cross the busy road to get to the park.
Soccer fields behind Massena High School are also difficult for spectators to access, he said.
One of the biggest complaints I hear is elderly people have to walk so far behind the school to get to the field, said Mayor James F. Hidy, who joined Mr. Firnstein at the meeting. Pete has a vision for Bushnell where hed like to see a more event-filled campus. Ive been there a couple of times. All there are is a couple of baseball diamonds. He was hoping this was something we could start discussing.
Mr. Firnstein stressed his desire to help children.
I was just thinking something for the kids a multi-field complex in one location, he said. Everything is centrally located. Its for the youth of Massena, but I think it will benefit the community as a whole.
He has come up with an outline that would ocate sports such as football, soccer, baseball and softball centrally at Bushnell Field. The fields could be used for indoor sports year-round, allowing for some seasons such as soccer to stretch out longer, he said. They also could be used by sports organizations from other municipalities as well as by the planned Boys and Girls Club of Massena, which officials hope to open in May.
Theres only so many things (the Boys and Girls Club) is going to be able to do in that building (St. Josephs Social Hall). Im trying to think outside the box and get everything in one location. Im trying to think of an opportunity to give kids something to do in the winter months, Mr. Firnstein said.
It will affect more than just the village. It will affect the whole county, he said. If you dont build something to get people to come, theyre not going to come.
While Recreation Commission members said the plan was admirable, their concern was funding.
We dont have our own funding supply, said Chairman David M. MacLennan. Its a nice facility but a high price tag.
Board members added Dr. William Orlando came to them several years ago with a similar idea to create a softball complex, but funding was the issue.
Dr. Orlando came down here. That idea has been tossed around. Its a nice idea if funding is available, said George Hammill, a commission member.
It didnt go very far, Mr. MacLennan said. It comes back to the bottom line funding.
Mr. Hidy and Mr. Firnstein said they believed funding was available to assist the project. Mr. Hidy said the Massena Community Center had been funded partially through a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
