Alabama LLC
Northwest Registered Agent will form your LLC for $100 plus state fees in any state.
Your online account has every state form you could file; pre-populated with our info on them. Along with:
- State filing instructions & contact details
- Annual report reminders
- Additional ordering
- All documents we receive for you
- Extensive resources
We don't mark up the state filing fees. You pay us exactly what you would pay the state. $100 filing fee, $125 registered agent. That's it.Order Now!
So you've decided to form a Limited Liability Company in Alabama? Excellent choice.
Throughout the course of your Alabama LLC's life, you will be able to refer to this page over and again to find the answers, information and forms you'll need to organize and maintain your Alabama LLC.
Alabama LLCs are formed with the secretary of state. In order to create an LLC, you file a form called the Certificate of Formation (also known as Articles of Organization).
In Alabama (no other state does it like this), you send your certificate of formation to the probate judge in the county where you'll be forming your LLC. That judge will pass on the approved paperwork to the secretary of state. Once filed, the Alabama Secretary of State will send you a confirmation that your LLC has been formed.
Here's what you need to know about forming an LLC in Alabama:
How do I form an LLC in Alabama?
We can form your LLC for you, but if you want to do it yourself, we've created an in-depth guide on how to form an LLC in Alabama.
How much does it cost?
Total cost: $178. This fee covers the $100 filing fee, the $50 probate judge fee, and $28 reservation fee.
How long will it take?
Alabama will take six months getting back to you, though, so if you want it formed sooner you can include an additional $100 for an expedite fee and receive confirmation within a three days.
Name reservation?
Alabama is the only state that requires you to reserve your name prior to filing. Name reservations are required in Alabama and cost $28.
Name requirements?
You can do an Alabama LLC name search for free online. Your LLC's name must be unique and include the words "Limited Liability Company" or the abbreviation "L.L.C." or "LLC".
Registered agent?
On the Certificate of Formation, you must designate an Alabama registered agent.
How are Alabama LLCs governed?
You form the LLC with the secretary of state, but an LLC is governed internally by its operating agreement.
Where can I find forms for my Alabama LLC?
You can find every legal document you'll need for your Alabama LLC in our Free LLC Forms section.
What forms do I need?
Links to forms you'll most likely need to start your limited liability company in Alabama are provided below:
Get a Tax ID Number
After you receive confirmation from the state, you'll need to obtain an Employer Identification Number for your LLC, or what's more commonly known as an EIN.
Open a bank account
Depending upon what your bank requires, the members, may need to sign a resolution to open a bank account for your LLC.
What if I want to form a corporation instead?
Learn more about Alabama corporations.
Alabama LLC Maintenance
Below, you'll find some waypoints to help you navigate operating an LLC in Alabama.
Annual reports
Alabama LLCs have annual reports, but what is semi-unique is that the filing of an annual report coincides with a tax called the Alabama Business Privilege Tax. Fortunately, you'll only need to file one form, Form-PPT with the Alabama Department of Revenue. The privilege tax is a minimum of $100 and is due on March 15th. To learn more about these annual reports, see our Alabama annual report page.
All revenue in your Alabama LLC will be passed on to you personally, which means you'll have to pay Alabama's personal tax rate (as well as applicable federal taxes) on all profit that passes to you through your LLC. See our Alabama taxes page for more specifics.
With an LLC, you can also elect to be taxed as an S Corp. This is an election made with the IRS, and in some situations can save you money. To learn more, go to our S Corp election page.
Doing business in other states
In order to qualify your Alabama LLC in a new state, you'll need to obtain an Alabama Certificate of Existence from the Secretary of State. Then you'll need to file the Certificate of Authorization in your new state and attach a Certificate of Good Standing to the application. The cost varies per state. See our foreign LLC registration page for more information.
Other considerations
- Should you need certified copies of your Certificate of Formation, you can find out how to get them on our Alabama certified copy page.
- To find out how to obtain an apostille for your LLC, see our Alabama apostille page.
- If you need to change your Alabama registered agent, we'll show you how.
- Reviving an Alabama LLC is not possible, as the Alabama Secretary of State no longer administratively dissolves LLCs. If your LLC in Alabama has been dissolved, you'll need to form a new limited liability company. However, if you need to dissolve your Alabama LLC, then we have instructions on how to accomplish that.
- And finally, when it's time to sell, we also have free forms you can use to sell your LLC membership interest.

Notes from Organised Tastings
Various other red wines
by Tom Cannavan, 02/98
This was part five of the private cellar assessment/tasting (see
"Private cellar 1"
for details). This was mopping up some assorted, good quality wines which we suspected might be past their best or in urgent need of consumption. Scores awarded out of 100 again.
Cabernet Sauvignon 1984, Marques de Griñon (Spain)
Blackish colour with orange at rim. Very appealing nose with sweet cassis fruit and a pencil-shaving edge. Very pure. Palate is creamy but robust. Medium weight, with peppery, blackcurrant fruit and a drying finish which shows some age. Drink soon. 86/100.
King Valley Cabernet/Shiraz 1986, Brown Brothers (Australia)
Deep ruby/purple colour. Rather thin on the nose and dominated by old wood. Decent, claret fruit, quite sweet with ripe blackberries and brambles, but flavours die quickly. Tannins are the major feature now. The wine is probably starting to go downhill fast. I would expect bottle variation. 84/100.
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1987, Cuvaison
Very intense, youthful colour. Dense purple/black. Gorgeous, sweet cassis fruit with hints of mint, eucalyptus and chocolate on the nose. Chocolatey, rich blackcurrant fruit on the palate, creamy and medium-dense, with keen, broad acidity and a lovely cloak of soft tannin. Excellent. Will hold 5 years. 90/100.
Chianti Classico Riserva 1983, Castell'in Villa
Browning, dark garnet colour. Nice, warm, clove and spice nose. Good initial cherry fruit on the palate. A wee bit thin and dies a little quickly, though a nice, mature, gutsy mouthful. 86/100
Pesquera (Spain) 1985, Bodegas Fernandez
Deep, solid, browning colour. Good, cedary, savoury nose. Very mellow and inviting. Amazingly sweet blackcurrant fruit on the palate. A big mouthful of velvety wine with generous acidity, plenty of classy oak and a raft of supportive tannins. Good for a few years. 88/100.

Burford Bridge, Box Hill, DORKING, RH5 6BX
At the foot of Box Hill in the sumptuous North Downs countryside, the Burford Bridge is proud of its location. Comprising a cluster of buildings including an old tithe-barn with original beams, it's been done in light contemporary style inside, including a monochrome bar with comfy sofas, and a white-walled dining room called the Emlyn, which has elegant curved banquette seating in gentle lilac. Light and contemporary describes the culinary approach too, which makes a good showing of starter dishes such as chunky pork terrine with pickled mushrooms and apple jelly, and mains like crisp-skinned seared chicken breast with charred onion, bread sauce and a good meaty jus, braised salmon with asparagus in champagne sauce, or vegetable cannelloni with smoked cheese and roasted vine tomatoes. A happy ending is assured with a textbook rendition of tiramis?, or pear frangipane tart with cr?me anglaise.

Rumors of Borders Sale Stoked
There have long been rumors of a sale/merger of Borders and Barnes and Noble. Analysts have commented on more than one occasion that this made sense. I think publishing folks generally dislike this notion across the board. Consolidation doesn't help sales and it certainly doesn't help midlist authors.
But according to the Washington Post, Borders is considering putting itself up for sale. It's not clear from the article whether Borders is going to sell part of its business or all.
Borders, the nation's second-largest bookseller, said Thursday it may put itself up for sale and has lined up $42.5 million in financing to help the chain continue operations.
This is certainly a development that could have far reaching outcomes not the least of which would be the increase of power by Amazon in the marketplace.

Question: when are you supposed to encounter Catwoman?

Question: when are you supposed to encounter Catwoman?
She plays a prominent role in the recent 'Blackgate' game for the Nintendo 3DS and PS Vita but there's barely a mention of her in 'Origins'.

Batman: Arkham Knight announced
The final game in the trilogy from Rocksteady Studios is due out this year complete with drivable Batmobile and a fully explorable Gotham City
And so the Dark Knight returns once more. Rocksteady, the London studio responsible for the critically acclaimed Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City adventures has announced its third and final title in a series that has redefined the super hero video game. Due out later this year Batman: Arkham Knight will be on the PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One only. And once again he's up against a veritable army of super villains. This time Scarecrow is the lynchpin, assembling a diabolical collective that also includes Two-Face, Harley Quinn and Penguin, all determined to destroy Batman forever. In what publisher Warner Bros is referring to as the end of the trilogy, the scale has been ratcheted up with a fully explorable Gotham City, available to players in its entirety. Previous titles Arkham Asylum and Arkham City have featured only closed off sections of the metropolis.
Furthermore, Arkham Knight will feature a new exclusive interpretation of the Batmobile, designed by the Rocksteady team. It will be the first time the iconic car has been available to drive in the series.
Interestingly, the game will be available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One only. "We're excited to be developing the game for next-gen platforms," said game director, Sefton Hill. "[It] has allowed us to bring to life the design elements that we envisioned from the beginning such as the Batmobile and how it augments Batman's abilities, to the fully detailed and realized Gotham City."
Released in 2009, Arkham Asylum provided an authentic vision of the Batman universe and was acclaimed for its smooth controls and accessible combat mechanic. Co-written by DC author Paul Dini the story captured the gothic darkness of the best Dark Knight comics. The sequel, Arkham City, expanded the action to feature a whole area of Gotham, but retained the original's style and atmosphere.
The news of this third title will be bittersweet for fans – the prospect of another Rocksteady-developed adventure is exciting, but if this is the studio's last it places a question mark over further Warner Bros Batman titles. Last year's spin-off, Batman Arkham Origins, developed by Warners' in-house studio in Montreal, was not as acclaimed as previous instalments. But then Batman is a comic book character well used to unexpected comebacks.
Just when I'd more or less resolved not to bother buying a PS4 anytime soon.
Posted 07 March 2014 - 06:55 AM
Retailers seem to have let the cat out of the bag regarding the game's release date (for some reason, it wasn't mentioned in the initial statement ). It's expected to arrive on October 14, which I'm guessing points to an October 17 release in the UK.
The worst-kept secret in the industry is finally out as well, with Kevin Conroy now confirmed as the voice of the Bat. Also apparently due to return to their former roles are Nolan North as The Penguin, Wally Wingert as The Riddler, Troy Baker as Two-Face, and Tara Strong as Harley Quinn.
More info here...
Batman: Arkham Knight out October – and is five times bigger than Arkham City
Further details on the new Batman game have emerged from American mag Game Informer (which is itself owned by GameSpot). In it Arkham Knight is revealed to be the name of a new supervillian, created specifically for the game by comics writer Geoff Johns. What the new bad guy looks like isn't yet known, but it sounds like he's a sort of anti-Batman style character who uses guns.
Kevin Conroy has been confirmed as the voice of Batman/Bruce Wayne – after working on Arkham Aslyum and City, but not Origins. Following his involvement in Batman: The Animated Series, and many of the other DC cartoons, he's considered the definitive Batman voice by most fans.
According to developer Rocksteady the game will take place in a new 'central zone' of Gotham City, which is split into three island and is roughly five times the size of Arkham City. That's still not that large compared to other open world games, but Rocksteady are emphasising that they want their world to be the most detailed and vibrant, not the biggest. They're also adamant that the game will not have any multiplayer, and that the studio is focused on 'making the best single-player experience it can'.
Although the phrasing is slightly ambiguous it doesn't sound as if Gotham City will feature much in the way of civilians or normal traffic, as Scarecrow is threatening to flood Gotham with his fear toxin (as seen in the trailer) and the city has been evacuated. According to Game Informer that means only criminals are left in the city, with fives times the number of thugs compared to Arkham City and riots of up to 50 characters at a time.
Confidant Oracle is also back in the game, and a character you physically meet this time. Although wheelchair bound in the games she was previous Batgirl in the comics – but it's unclear whether she'll take on that role again in the new game. Oracle is also the daughter of Commissioner Gordon, and her remaining in the city against his will is apparently a key plot point.
The game's much admired combat system maintains its elegant simplicity, but there will be numerous tweaks, including being able to use quickfire gadgets in mid-air and new throw counters that allow you to grab and throw enemies into each other.
Although the gadgets will also be upgraded and tweaked the Batmobile is the most important bit of new tech in the game and designed to be 'the best car in any game ever', according to Rocksteady. You can call it to your location at any time and it can do jumps, boosts, burnouts, and rotate in a circle even when stationary (presumably inspired by that scene in Batman Returns).
In terms of graphics Rocksteady insist they're trying to make the game look as much like pre-rendered CGI (such as in the trailer) as possible, with the polygon count for one character apparently being as big as the whole of the Arkham Asylum environment.
Rocksteady describe Arkham Knight as a 'genuine next-gen game' and that not having to make the game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 was key to being able to do everything they wanted. 'Obviously, you see a lot of games that are cross-gen, and they feel a bit reined in because of that,' said director Sefton Hill. 'Because we were able to make that decision quite early, we were able to be more ambitious with the design and make a real, genuine next-gen game'.
But Rocksteady has also given some interesting hints as to what will happen after Arkham Knight, insisting that their next game will not be Batman related (although that doesn't necessarily rule out the rest of the DC Universe).
Although this will be the final part in the Arkham series, with Arkham Knight set quite late in Batman's career, Rocksteady has also hinted that other Batman games will continue without them – presumably via Arkham Origins developer WB Games Montreal.
Posted 08 March 2014 - 06:54 PM
Origins was good and all, but Rocksteady back in the driver's seat feels much better. Perhaps most encouraging of all was this:
I really hope they live up to that. A bigger city with the ability to drive the Batmobile sounds great, but I'm worried about how much they'll have to sacrifice in terms of detail and quality. So glad that developers can finally break the shackles of the crusty old PS3/360 hardware holding everything back

... but Rocksteady are emphasising that they want their world to be the most detailed and vibrant, not the biggest.

New teaser has arrived. Title is a touch misleading as there's very little in the way of actual gameplay footage, but you do get a few quick glimpses of what it'll be like to drive the Batmobile. Looks pretty great.
Posted 11 June 2014 - 06:02 AM
Another new trailer has just debuted at Sony's E3 2014 press conference, looks like it's the real deal in terms of actual gameplay footage this time. They appear to have combined some of the best traits of 'Asylum' and 'City', and the speed at which Batman is able to fly around the rooftops is terrifyingly impressive.
Posted 11 June 2014 - 07:34 AM
I love the little touches and bits of polish that you can see in the animations, transitions, etc. It feels so much better to have Rocksteady back at the helm. Bring on 2015

Posted 11 June 2014 - 07:57 AM
Ah, I hadn't heard about Rocksteady's change of heart regarding the game's release date until now. Not the worst thing in the world, I suppose. It'll be next year (at the earliest) before I even begin to think about upgrading and I'd much prefer them to take their time and get it right rather than rush it out.
Interestingly, it seems deliberate that they haven't featured much of Detective Mode as yet. The thought occurs that they may have figured out another way of incorporating its attributes without forcing the player to be in it quite as often. It was never any more than a minor irritation, but I remember feeling an ever-so-slight tinge of sadness when I had to use it for long periods of time in the previous titles, because it meant appreciating the level design less.
Posted 11 June 2014 - 08:15 AM
I know what you mean with the detective mode. I can't imagine they're going to drastically change the way that works though - the visual style of that mode is quite a distinctive signature of the series. Maybe they'll introduce a sort of 'tagging' mechanic so you can still track enemies through walls and whatnot once you switch out of it I do quite like what WB did with those investigation segments (eg. the rewind mechanic) - It'll be interesting to see if Rocksteady pick up on that and push it to some more interesting interactions and gameplay features.

I'd definitely jump at the chance to fully take in the atmospherics while tackling the main story missions, especially now in what promises to be such a breathtaking digital rendering of Gotham. Obviously though, it'd be extremely difficult (not to mention risky) to suddenly start pulling staples of the series up by the roots now. Plus, you can almost always revisit things afterwards, for Riddler trophies and suchlike. I'm probably just getting a bit greedy.
It'll be most interesting to see Scarecrow take centre stage in this one. His voice has changed a bit, but his monologue towards the end of the trailer was genuinely chilling and the so-called 'Nightmare Missions' were always such great psychological asides to the first game's narrative.
Posted 21 June 2014 - 06:25 AM
Some interesting stuff regarding the Batmobile here.
Batman Arkham Knight preview: Hands-on with the indispensable Batmobile
Until recently, the Batmobile in next year's Batman: Arkham Knight - the headline-grabbing addition in the final chapter to Rocksteady's adventure series - has been mostly used to roam the larger, sprawling next-gen vision of Gotham City. But an early-game mission - which sees Batman explore a hostile-filled chemicals facility at the edge of the city - shows it's more than a means of going from A to B, proving instrumental in infiltration, puzzle solving and combating criminals.
For starters, the Batmobile has a deployable winch, which when latched onto the dead end of a bridge to create a ramp, and followed by the well-timed use of an afterburner, sees the Batmobile rocket over a huge expanse and land inside the chemical plant's gates. It seems that you need it to reach certain areas in Arkham Knight's expanded open-world. Once inside, the Batmobile proves ideal for quickly zipping through courtyards and a network of chemical pipes that stretch to the outer edges of the facility. Naturally, there's resistance throughout in the form of missile-wielding vehicles, but a special Battle Mode sees the Batmobile turn into an agile battle tank that makes short work of them with its own homing projectiles.
The most impressive showcase of the Batmobile, perhaps, is when Batman is on foot. When it's exploring indoors, it can be called and controlled remotely to help blow up walls that expose switches and new routes to progress onward. Provided it's sitting outside, it can even spice up Batman's acclaimed combat, where an uppercut can be stylishly finished off with a blast of a missile while the thug is mid-air. (These missiles will only stun, so don't worry about Batman suddenly turning homicidal now he's got his driving licence.)
Batman in the Arkham games has always felt a little on the stiff side, so it's impressive how quickly he can transition from car to combat. A simple button press will allow you to smoothly eject from the Batmobile, slide into an air duct and go straight into a combo, and you can return just as quickly whenever you decide to leap back onto the streets. While the transition between fighting and exploring is fluid, actually controlling the Batmobile might come with a small learning curve.
It accelerates as you'd expect from a car in a game - with a pull of the right trigger - but to brake you need to press a face button (on PS4, this is Square). This is because holding the left trigger transforms the car into its aforementioned Battle Mode, where handling changes to something similar to a third-person shooter, with the two sticks to turn and strafe and the right trigger to fire off cannon shots. Adjusting between the two styles is a little confusing at first, and becomes even more so when summoning the Batmobile while Batman is elsewhere. Puzzles that require the vehicle's winch or projectiles begin with a series of button presses - starting with a shoulder button, to a move of an analogue stick on a radial wheel followed by a tap of a face button - before you then remember how to select one of the many toys the Batmobile has at its disposal.
On the bright side, using it in combat is really easy - it's simply part of a combo that flashes on-screen, and at the very least that sequence of switching between Bat and car highlights the sheer range of abilities now available to Batman in Arkham Knight. This limited early-game slice proves the Batmobile isn't just a fun ride, but an indispensable and cleverly-implemented weapon in the Dark Knight's battle to save Gotham.

While I remember, here's part two.
Posted 11 July 2015 - 10:17 AM
I watched the story and all the settings for Arkham Knight since its release. I enjoyed it a lot and it's loaded with homages to the batman universe. The game story is a bit like the 'Dark Knight Rises' where prior story trails come to a closure. The ending is open ended and more interesting than 'Dark Knight Rises' IMHO. The city design is also quite detailed, and large. The narrative of the game is very ..'grandiose' with action set-pieces. I liked the design of the police department. The writing for the game is overall quite good IMHO and so are the side quests with the super-villains.

This is just one of the 55 activities that will be held in the city. At least 150,000 people are expected to attend the celebration, which will be held from the 15-17 of June. Other events being held in the city focus on social activities, sport, art and culture and the economy. The Jakarta International Expo and the Jakarta Carnival is just some of the highlights of the celebrations for visitors and residents of the city. These events are a perfect opportunity for the Government to showcase the development projects they have been working on that will benefit the residents of the city. An especially important issue for the incumbent Governor as this is an election year. A need for infrastructure development is a major concern voiced by city residents. This fact was highlighted by almost everyone Press TV talked to. Some residents believe that it is not only important to focus on development issues, but also the most marginalised members of society. Ludo Vicus explains why he thinks the Government should run social programs alongside ones that are aimed at businesses and tourism. Though people are happy at the chance to celebrate and enjoy these festivities, they have not been distracted from the bigger issues the city faces.

An In-Depth History of One Block of Greene Street in SoHo, NYC
The entirety of Greene Street in SoHo is pretty short, as New York City streets go -- just five blocks long. Walk along it today between Houston and Prince Streets and you'll pass an Apple Store, a Ralph Lauren store, and a variety of other high-end retailers. A hundred and forty years ago, you'd be walking by brothels. A new website, The Greene Street Project: A Long History of a Short Block, covers more than four hundred years of that one block section -- just 486 feet long -- illustrated with photographs, maps, newspaper clippings, survey data, and charts.

Exxon Mobil proceeds with $14 billion Canada oil field
By: International Business Times
Posted: 1/4/2013 12:42:00 PM
Referenced Stocks:
Exxon Mobil Corp said on Friday it is moving forward with the next major offshore oil project in the North Atlantic, the $14 billion Hebron development off the Newfoundland coast.
Exxon Mobil said the oil from Hebron will be produced with an iceberg-resistant gravity-based platform designed to pump 150,000 barrels a day. First oil is expected by 2017.
The project, in the Jeanne d'Arc Basin, 350 km (200 miles) southeast of St John's, Newfoundland, follows the other developments in the region -- Hibernia, Terra Nova and White Rose.

No idea. Couldn't get past the "! HACKED" in orange pixel/digital font..
However, I think anything with a wireless interface and control over a mechanical object is a potential for disaster. 15 years ago, it was garage door openers getting hacked. After that, it was key-fobs. Now it's pacemakers and cars. The biggest problem is that people fail to realize/acknowledge that they are driving in a 4000 lb object at 80+ miles an hour while being propelled by explosions under the hood (or trunk), and that computers (from PCMs to OnStar) are now becoming critical components in the process of controlling everything that happens in a car. Driving a vehicle is probably when we put ourselves most at risk of serious physical injury. And we do it every day. Now we're adding lane-departure correction and adaptive cruise control into cars. I could probably "hack" that and get someone killed just by spray painting some white lines on the road.


text: Thilo is right, but it doesn't mean you can't use an exposure meter in the lab. Gossen, for instance, has a specific attachment for some models and after careful tests you may find equivalent ISO speed for any paper you select. Don't know about other makers, but wouldn't be surprise if one finds more options available.

I run a JVC Kaboom box at outdoor volleyball tournaments. The unit can accept 10 D cell batteries and can them chew up in one day. I'd need to carry a spare set of 10 D cells. Spent alkaline cells would go in the trash. A set of good rechargeables and chargers would run near $200. Instead I used a single SPV20. I think it has ~20 hours of capacity for my device. I charge with a 15 amp marine smart charger. The charger never seems to indicate a charged state, so I simply disconnect after a few hours, to avoid overcharging. I realize repeated undercharging can also degrade performance, but the basic problem is that it's difficult to read the charge state of this type of battery. I would certainly like to see a built-in LCD charge indicator, for both charge and discharge. I happen to have a sturdy cloth carrying case with strap, but it is rather a pain to carry the heavy battery around. By the way, I had to solder a custom 12VDC supply cord for the Kaboom.

Tasmanian Devil Mascot for Kernel 2.6.29
Linus Torvalds announced at the Australian Linux.conf.au that he wants to make the conference mascot, the Tasmanian Devil (considering that the conference took place in Hobart, Tasmania) the new logo for Linux Kernel 2.6.29.
Called "Tuz" for short, the carnivorous marsupial matched with Tux the penguin's beak was designed partly to draw attention to the endangered Australian species and save it from extinction.
Linus has now made things official through a commit and subsequent blog. The Tasmanian Devil population is currently stricken with the dreadful transmittable Devil facial tumor disease (DFTD) that has decimated its numbers and baffled scientists since the 1990s. The animal known in other contexts as a Warner Brothers cartoon character lives exclusively in the Australian island state of Tasmania.
So Tux has morphed into Tuz for the next release, but retained the penguin beak, perhaps as a way of hiding the ugly tumor, but with an idea of building an eventual immunity to the disease.
Ignore the trollI think it's awesome that Linus and the Free Software community are trying to draw attention to endangered species like this. The mascot is cute, and supports a good cause.
Don't like the penguin (or the Tuz?)? It's open-source. Change it for yourself.
brandingIt's as f**king awful as the penguin.
If they're gonna dick with the branding, they should move well away from this kiddy stuff.
There's a reason Distro's don't use it.
World class OS represented by a Toys'R'Us type mascot, it's an embarrassment. Saying you work on Linux shouldn't feel like saying you do occupational therapy with the learning disabled, or run a crèche.
Not that I stand in admiration of that mutant window thing...

1Rachel saw that she couldn't have any children by Jacob. So she became jealous of her sister. She said to Jacob, "Give me children, or I'll die!"
2Jacob became angry with her. He said, "Do you think I'm God? He's the one who has kept you from having children."
3Then she said, "Here's my servant Bilhah. Make love to her so that she can have children for me. Then I too can have a family through her."
4So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife. Jacob made love to her. 5And Bilhah became pregnant. She had a son by him. 6Then Rachel said, "God has stood up for my rights. He has listened to my prayer and given me a son." So she named him Dan.
7Rachel's servant Bilhah became pregnant again. She had a second son by Jacob. 8Then Rachel said, "I've had a great struggle with my sister. Now I've won." So she named him Naphtali.
9Leah saw that she had stopped having children. So she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife. 10Leah's servant Zilpah had a son by Jacob. 11Then Leah said, "What good fortune!" So she named him Gad.
12Leah's servant Zilpah had a second son by Jacob. 13Then Leah said, "I'm so happy! The women will call me happy." So she named him Asher.
14While the wheat harvest was being gathered, Reuben went out into the fields. He found some mandrake plants. He brought them to his mother Leah. Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."
15But Leah said to her, "Isn't it enough that you took my husband away? Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?"
Rachel said, "All right. Jacob can make love to you tonight if you give me your son's mandrakes."
16Jacob came in from the fields that evening. Leah went out to meet him. "You have to sleep with me tonight," she said. "I've bought you with my son's mandrakes." So he made love to her that night.
17God listened to Leah. She became pregnant and had a fifth son by Jacob. 18Then Leah said, "God has rewarded me because I gave my female servant to my husband." So she named the boy Issachar.
19Leah became pregnant again. She had a sixth son by Jacob. 20Then Leah said, "God has given me a priceless gift. This time my husband will treat me with honor. I've had six sons by him." So she named the boy Zebulun.
21Some time later she had a daughter. She named her Dinah.
22Then God listened to Rachel. He showed concern for her. He made it possible for her to have children. 23She became pregnant. She had a son. She said, "God has taken my shame away." 24She continued, "May the Lord give me another son." So she named him Joseph.
Jacob's Flocks Increase Their Numbers
25After Rachel had Joseph, Jacob spoke to Laban. He said, "Send me on my way. I want to go back to my own home and country. 26Give me my wives and children. I worked for you to get them. So I'll be on my way. You know how much work I've done for you."
27But Laban said to him, "If you are pleased with me, stay here. I've discovered that the Lord has blessed me because of you." 28He continued, "Name your pay. I'll give it to you."
29Jacob said to him, "You know how hard I've worked for you. You know that your livestock has done better under my care. 30You had only a little before I came. But that little has become a lot. The Lord has blessed you everywhere I've been. But when can I do something for my own family?"
31"What should I give you?" Laban asked.
"Don't give me anything," Jacob replied. "Just do one thing for me. Then I'll go on taking care of your flocks and watching over them.
32"Let me go through all of your flocks today. Let me remove every sheep that has speckles or spots on it. Let me remove every dark-colored lamb. Let me remove every goat that has spots or speckles on it. They will be my pay.
33"My honesty will give witness about me in days to come. It will give witness every time you check on what you have paid me. Suppose I have a goat that doesn't have speckles or spots. Or suppose I have a lamb that isn't dark-colored. Then it will be considered stolen."
34"I agree," said Laban. "Let's do what you have said."
35That same day Laban removed all of the male goats that had stripes or spots. He removed all of the female goats that had speckles or spots. They were the ones that had white on them. He also removed all of the dark-colored lambs. He had his sons take care of them.
36Then he put a journey of three days between himself and Jacob. But Jacob continued to take care of the rest of Laban's flocks.
37Jacob took branches that were freshly cut from poplar, almond and plane trees. He made white stripes on them by peeling off the bark. He uncovered the white wood inside the branches.
38Then he placed the peeled branches in all of the stone tubs where the animals drank water. He placed them so they would be right in front of the flocks when they came to drink. The flocks were ready to mate when they came to drink. 39So they mated in front of the branches. And they had little ones that were striped or speckled or spotted. 40Jacob put the little ones of the flock to one side by themselves. But he made the older ones face the striped and dark-colored animals that belonged to Laban. In that way, he made separate flocks for himself. He didn't put them with Laban's animals.
41Every time the stronger females were ready to mate, Jacob would place the branches in the stone tubs. He would place them in front of the animals so they would mate near the branches.
42But if the animals were weak, he wouldn't place the branches there. So the weak animals went to Laban. And the strong ones went to Jacob.
43In this way, Jacob became very rich. He became the owner of large flocks. He also had many male and female servants. And he had many camels and donkeys.

text: The three different survivorship curves (referred to as Types I, II, and III) illustrate the relationship between life span and the number of survivors in a population. The overall population growth rate for a population is a basis of the birth rate and the death rate. However, when life span is factored in, three possible scenarios (curves) are possible. In type I, the individuals of the population live for a significant portion of their possible life span and undergo high death rates only when the individuals are in the postreproductive stage. This population sees the highest percent of individuals surviving to reproduce, thus accelerating the population growth. In type II, the survivorship decreases steadily throughout the life span of the individuals in the population. This decreases the availably of individuals in their reproductive stages while still maintaining steady reproduction rates. The decrease in reproductive individuals would slow the overall growth rate so that it is less than that experienced by type I. A type III population is distinguished by the low survivorship present in young individuals. This would result in relatively few individuals making it to the reproductive stage. The population would be maintained but in lower numbers.

As Samsung prepares to release its new flagship to the masses, the company is already making moves to accommodate its open source following. Today, the Korean electronics maker served up the kernel source for three versions of the Galaxy S 4. On tap are two unlocked variants of Samsung's next big thing (GT-I9500 and GT-I9505) along with Virgin Mobile Canada's rendition of the handset. Seeing how you've already seen the device stripped down to its unmentionables, why not go the extra mile and take a whack at its software? That is if you know what you're doing.
