LJWorld.com weblogs Sharpening My Pen
When I posted Stop! Part 1, it made the rounds on the internet. (I posted it at more than one blog and site.)
It created a lot of conversation and in the course of that discussion I learned a great deal.
I was introduced to a book, When Abortion Was A Crime: Women, Medicine and Law in the United States, 1867-1973, by Leslie J. Reagan, published in 1997.
It's a scholarly book, solidly researched and referenced. It's been used as a text book in law history courses in some law schools. But anti-abortionists hate it. Why? Because in it's cool, dry text is a stark, scathing indictment of illegal abortion and the sheer number of women lost to it over a nearly hundred year period in this country.
Many of the people I've spoken with are concerned that this new push to recriminalize abortion will be far worse.
In the past, when abortion was illegal, entire wards of hospitals were set aside to treat women that had undergone abortions and needed emergency care. They weren't exactly treated courteously (and in some cases actually had treatment withheld until they named their abortionist to the police) but by and large, women, themselves, were not criminalized; only the clinics and providers.
However, in this new era of anti-abortionism, it's already become apparent that the political climate is to also charge women with criminal wrong doing. Several high profile cases have been in the media about women charged with feticide when they have self aborted from lack of access. One was charged with it when she miscarried after a suicide attempt. Another was charged with attempted feticide when she fell down a flight of stairs and told her ER nurse that, early in her pregnancy, she had contemplated aborting.
This attempt to criminalize women is troubling on a number of levels. If abortion is totally outlawed, women will delay or even forego treatment entirely, if they run into trouble, to try and prevent being charged with a criminal act, thus placing their lives in far greater jeopardy than that in the past. Some cynics actually question the reason for this criminalization and point to private prisons and the need for their state contractors to fill them and make a profit.
In the end, there is simply no denying that, no matter what, if these laws get past Federal challenge, the impact on women and their lives is going to be horrendous.

Sissy Spacek also starred with Aidan Quinn in 1992 in an HBO movie about Sherri Finkbine's case in 1962. This one hit home HARD because the exact same thing happened to my own mother. My mom was turned down for a legal therapeutic abortion and she was actually in the process of seeking an illegal one when she naturally miscarried. Her doctor told her the fetus was so malformed it would have never survived birth. It had no arms and the entire spinal cord and part of the brain were growing outside of the body. It turned her into a life long pro-choice advocate.

I've just been pointed to another documentary.
It's called "Motherless: A Legacy of Loss".
It follows the stories of four people who lost their mothers to illegal abortion prior to Roe V. Wade.
I'm a bit amazed at these stories almost coming out of the woodwork.
WHY DON'T PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS??? Or do they know and just not care?
It's heartbreaking.

Does anybody question where this wood is coming from? I LOVE wood. wood everything. But we really are the generation that is now responsible for asking where our wood products are coming from. The more we ask, the more pressure industry will feel to only buy sustainable.
Does anybody question where this wood is coming from? I LOVE wood. wood everything. But we really are the generation that is now responsible for asking where our wood products are coming from.
If deforestation is your worry you may take some solace in the knowledge that one tree should be enough to make enough of these overpriced chopping blocks for every nitwit who has the budget and inclination to buy one.
I don't get it; how is this better than $0.10 worth of styrofoam?
The lumber yard is your friend.
I prefer rosewood for audioblocks, though. But heck, you could make them out of bloodwood and still come out well ahead of those prices. At $650 they ought to be made of agar!
If you're looking for an opportunity to spend money, why not a block of wood?
It's expensive so it must be good!
It's expensive so the other fools who waste their money to delude themselves with status will be jealous when I show it to them.
The sad thing is I want to buy it. To dampen the vibration that gets to my turntable. It won't take many fools like me to give them a profit.
Luckily, I can't afford it.
I have an old phone book that will work even better. I'll sell it to you for $1000. That means it is $350 better.
I much prefer the full-sized version:
A few months ago, my wife and I were walking through the bookstore in downtown Tokyo. On the 4th floor, a wood craftsman had a table set up, and he was carving little wooden doo-dads and hawking his stuff. Most of it was wooden fountain pens, business card holders, tissue boxes– things I would expect (but wildly expensive). At the back of the table were two little tweeter speakers encased in some rosewood. Price? USD$2500. I blinked and blinked again, and then I crassly asked him if the price was correct. It was, he said, and he sells quite a few of them.
There are quite a few audiophiles in Japan (probably the same as anywhere else, I'm convinced it's a psychological issue combined with some genetics toward sensitive ears).
There is also a huge obsession with wood. Wood is pure, wood is traditional, wood is the True Art before the westerners arrived with their metal and plastic and cheap pursuits. Anyone with money will have a 和室(washitsu – Japanese room) in their house that is all wood, bamboo mats, and the Buddhist cabinet containing the photos and memories of their ancestors. Often, these rooms have a huge chunk of polished wood in some interesting shape. These objects can go up to USD$20,000 in some cases.
So, combine those two obsessions, and it makes sense this guy makes bank selling wood-enclosed speakers. It also makes sense that people would pay good money to invoke the "purity of wood" into their stereo sound system.
Obviously, the block of wood described here is absurdly expensive, but $2500 isn't necessarily overpriced for a pair of speakers. Don't get me wrong, I've heard $100k speakers I thought sounded like crap, but sometimes the $20000 pair of speakers really is much better than the $5000 ones.
I'm not an audiophile. I don't care that much, it isn't worth it to me. But my dad is, and I've learned a lot from him. If you take the time to program your equipment to know how far you are from each speaker, and carefully angle each (200 pound) speaker half an inch and a few degrees back and forth, you really will notice the change. Sometimes a small piece of sound-absorbing foam, carefully placed, makes a huge difference.
I'm really hoping the post is ironic but I fear it may not be
It certainly is absolutely laughably ridiculous…
…but I sure as heck wish I had thought of it. I really have to find a way to part rich fools with their money.
Phew, having clicked on the link for http://boingboing.net/2005/11/07/astronomically-overp.html I'm now 99% sure irony was involved in the post
Grr. This makes a mockery of actual artistic woodwork. You can do the audiophile thing and pretend you hear a difference between identical sounds– or you can purchase gasp-inducingly beautiful stuff for $500 and support a real artist. It's your call.
All my floors are wood, so I had to build something to dampen the speaker cabinets I built. There's no reason on Earth to spend that kind of money though. You can get or order blocks of better wood at any decent woodworking shop and pay a fraction of the price. Even if you don't want to go the DIY route, there are lots of artisans willing to build you a base for way less, and you can tell them what you'd like. But yeah, most audiophile stuff is pure %100 snake oil, and when, like me, you love music but aren't loaded, you improvise.
I've always LMAO when products like this appear. I particularly enjoy the pseudo-science behind how they work. High-end audio is filthy with things like this. I don't know who to laugh at more..the people designing/selling this crap, or the rubes *actually buying* it.
I'm particularly fond of shredding most of what can be purchased here. http://www.shunmook.com/text1.htm
I know that 15 years ago the discs were $50 each. And the record clamp was almost $900.00. P.T. Barnum is LHAO somewhere.

audio cable aficionado
A great investment so you can hear your low grade mp3's or your dusty, popping vinyl lps.
…. or, you could spend half that on a visit to an Audiologist, who would save you money by proving that your ears are measurably incapable of hearing the difference.
Audiophiles have a lot in common to the new age enthusiast, with their crystals and orgone collectors or what have you.
I have no doubt some of the high end speakers and the like are superior (though at some point the added costs are disproportionate to the added quality).
Then there are some products that are snake oil – pure and simple. I have an uncle who is an audiophile, but not stupidly so. He likes to show me the 'idiot product of the moment' from one of his magazines. His best stories involves friends who shell out money for some of them.
I wonder if audiophiles consider the fact that they may be spending lots of cash to get extremely accurate replay of recordings that were probably done on average recording instruments. For all you know that great symphonic album was done by near amateurs on cheap equipment. Now you are spending out the wazoo to try to reproduce every mediocre second of it.
There is also the matter of how the masters were made and the copies made from that. I doubt they were made using $100 an inch cables.
At a certain point, wouldn't it become cheaper for these guys to just get an annual subscription to their local philharmonic orchestra? Or if their local one isn't any good, monthly plane tickets to a town where the orchestra is good?
A housemate of mine in college had a functionally similar audio block. We'd been repairing the slate walk out front, and ended up with a slab about six inches thick and 2-3 feet across. Stood it up on some cinder blocks, put the turntable on top, and you could dance in the room without the record skipping. He was an audiophile who liked classical music, but his stereo wasn't that expensive – it was good enough to hear what the orchestra was playing, and it was much more cost effective to buy better recordings of better orchestras with better conductors than to get a little less distortion so you could hear an uninspired performance better.
I'm holding out for the Monster version, I hear they'll be using the quantums.
Jumped to comments, ctrl-F "monster".
leaving happy.
Makes me want to find a wounded tree and harvest sap to mould into amber platforms for audiophiles to put their speakers on
I think the only way they could possibly remotely justify that price for such a simply made chunk of varnished wood is if the used high end imaging to check every piece to make sure there weren't any knots, internal wobbles, or inauspicious twists in the grain that would somehow disrupt your "audio chi".
It would still be snake oil, but at least they would have put some effort into it.
I hope it's at least a *well made* simple chunk of varnished wood…
Even more great questionable tech here: http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina5.htm
And here's their answer to your turntable problems: http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina24.htm (wish I could find pricing)
Audiophile snake oil is the best snake oil I want to buy!
I got into a semi-heated discussion with someone who is in love with very high end audio equipment a while back. They are very passionate about their stuff.
At one point, I asked how a 20,000 dollar two channel tube amp for playing records can possibly be worth that kind of dough, when a: the guy uses printed circuit boards, and b: I can buy a handmade guitar amp using a hand wired board and the best quality caps, wire, etc, for not much more than a 10th of that that.
She fumbled but ultimately failed.
Ah, morons… I mean audiophiles. Always good for a laugh, and not the cheap kind either. Makes me want to 'invent' some almost reasonable BS to make a killing off of these chumps. But that would be slightly less ethical than just laughing at their expensive follies.
Why all the grief for audiophiles? I love music, especially that old school warm analog sound. Personally I've seldom invested in audio tweaks, but I can certainly hear the difference between brands of stereo components, speakers, and — more subtly — cables. I figure it's all about a harmless pursuit of happiness and appreciation of performance art. Besides, the money goes somewhere… into some small business or perhaps your local economy. On some level, paying $650 for a piece of wood is probably less detrimental to society than buying $100 worth of carcinogenic plastic crap at Walmart.
"Warm analog sound"? Hardly.
I did the audiophile bit on a low budget. Thirty and forty years ago superior sound cost more money. Today it doesn't. Incrementally better sound and its concomitant cost are akin to the speed of light and the absurd amount of energy one would be required to expend to reach light speed.
The "warm analog sound" was never my aim. Pops, clicks, snaps, buzz feed, and feed back were what one was trying to keep out of the listening experience.
Those who think that digital copies of analog originals are somehow inferior misunderestimate the mathematics behind limit theory.
I am pretty happy to be living in an era where nicely middle of the road priced gear generates a superior listening experience.
The use of the non-term "misunderestimate," apparently without irony, is hilarious. One can only wonder, "Is our children learning?"
You all miss the point. The objective is not great sound – the objective is the visceral experience of feeling smug, and superior to those "not in the know". The price tag is an essential component in the formula that makes up this experience – without it, the whole endeavor would be plain, common, pedestrian… the antithesis of "superior".
"Connection Revitalizer" reminds me of Caig's Pro-Gold connection cleaner, which I am ashamed to admit I purchased a bottle of after a smart audiophile extolled its virtues. When I tried telling a bunch of electric vehicle enthusiasts to try Caig's Pro-Gold on their battery connections, I learned how easy it is to fool even skeptical folks like myself.
If you sand off the varnish it'd make a half decent chopping board.
I don't get why audiophiles buy this stuff.
Yes, it's well-understood that vibration-damping, judiciously applied, can make your stereo sound better. But why overpay for something, the benefits of which could probably be replicated for dimes on the dollar? It just ain't smart.
Protip to my tech-oriented friends – "Music servers" are the currently hot segment. A music server is a fairly low-spec Linux computer with some open-source software, some custom software, a nice interface, and a pretty case to hold it all. They should sell, based on average specs, for less than a grand. They are flying out the door at ten times that price. Best to move into that market now, before the rubes wise up.
Side note to audiophile haters – Be more open-minded. In audio, everything makes a difference.
Remember when science had proved it impossible for the human ear to hear anything that wasn't being sampled for the production of CDs? Remember the slogan "Perfect Sound, Forever"?
That turned out to be a crock because people were willing to say "I don't care about instrumented measurements. I don't care that A measures perfect and B measures like crap. My ears tell me that A sounds awful and B sounds OK, more like music."
Some of those people who heard a difference, who felt that CDs sounded awful despite their demonstrated perfection, were engineers and scientists. They did the work and found that things like jitter and inadequate error-correction existed, could be measured, and, when fixed, made the recordings sound better.
All that, despite the fact that the original CDs were supposed to be perfect.
I was there, a grown man in the early 80s when CDs hit. I read, over and over and over in newspapers and magazines, that "those stupid audiophiles who think they can hear problems with the sounds of CDs" were idiots and that all their claims had been scientifically proven false. I got caught up in the hype, believed it, and bought a CD player even though I didn't have a stereo at the time. Then I went shopping for amps and speakers. I went to a bunch of places, always taking my own CD so that I heard the same music, listened to all sorts of equipment, and got more and more confused. Something didn't sound right. I had spent too much time sitting in the middle of large groups of musicians, the double reed buzzing in my head as my fingers flew over the keys of my bassoon. I had an idea what music sounded like. And this was NOT it.
I will never be able to express my gratitude to the saleslady at AudioProphiles, a long-gone Houston establishment, who let me play my CD on a Phase Linear player, through Krell electronics, with sound output by the original Apogee speakers.
Less than a bar past the entry of the strings (The Four Seasons, on Telarc), I was screaming at her to turn it off, fingers firmly inserted in ears to block that awful, awful noise. Here I was, with a PERFECT source playing through some of the finest audio equipment in the world, and the sound was indescribably horrible.
She took pity on me and simply gave me the room for the next couple of hours after she had showed me how to cue up records on the Goldmund Reference turntable (first one in the country, bought off the floor of the Consumer Electronics Show). For a couple of hours, I was in heaven. Violins sounded like violins, not instruments of torture. Rock records sounded like music.
When she returned with another customer I had to leave. I expressed my dismay and confusion. "Why do all the CDs sound so bad?" "Because they're digital."
She gifted me with a copy of The Absolute Sound and showed me to the door. From that moment, I knew that I couldn't trust the people who had an ideological stake in how things should sound. I knew I couldn't trust anyone who was trying to sell me something. I knew I could only trust my ears.
The progress of audio over the decades has always been the same. People who listen say "I hear a difference". Rational people respond "Stupid audiophile! There is no difference! It's scientifically impossible!" A few of those people who heard a difference do the work, come up with a theory, find the reason, come up with a way to measure, and improve the state of the art.
The process repeats over and over and over again, ad infinitum.
Today's big deal seems to be cables. I don't hear a difference but I've gotten old and my ears are bad. Lots of people, though, claim to be able to hear a difference between speaker cables or interconnects or even power cables. Lots of other folks are busy putting their fingers in their ears and humming loudly, stopping occasionally to shout: "Stupid audiophiles! There is no difference! It's scientifically impossible!"
Other people are doing the work, coming up with some fascinating theories, and trying to do the needed testing/experimenting.
The cycle repeats. We'll see how it turns out.
tl;dr – $650 wood blocks are stupid. Not all audiophiles are. Audiophile haters, otoh, turn out to be wrong more often that most people realize.

Life Extension of Units 5, 6 of Kozloduy NPP to Cost EUR 500-600 M
The projected cost of the extension of the lives of units 5 and 6 of the Bulgarian Kozloduy nuclear power plant has been increased to EUR 500 – 600 M.
The evaluation of Stanislav Antipov, Deputy Director-General of Rosenergoatom has been increased from the forecast of EUR 400 M announced in the beginning of 2014 and the EUR 266 M estimate presented in 2012.
Rosenenergoatom includes the research organizations which were involved in the designing of the two 1000 MW units of the Kozloduy NPP, which makes it only logical for Bulgaria to consult Rosenergoatom about the life extension of units 5 and 6 of the N-plant whose licenses expire in 2017 and 2019, respectively, according to the BGNES news agency.
Antipov claimed that Bulgaria had delayed the launch of the life extension procedure for the two N-plant units.
He suggested that the procedure would have started at least 6 years before the deadline in Russia, while in Bulgaria it had been launched as late as 2012, mainly for political reasons.
He was optimistic that the two N-plant units would be granted life extensions, adding that they would be permitted to function for another 15-20 years after that.
He emphasized that the procedure involved stringent tests.
Antipov said that the first stage had been launched in April 2012 and Rosenergoatom had submitted the paperwork to the Bulgarian Nuclear Regulatory Agency at the end of 2013. He explained that the Bulgarian watchdog was to get acquainted with the documents within 6 months and then start the next stages of the procedure.

This year's North Island-wide drought has taken a chunk out of New Zealand's sheep and cattle numbers, according to the latest figures.
This spring's lamb crop is expected to be 2 million lambs fewer – down 7.7 per cent to 24.4m – and only 18.6m lambs will be slaughtered for export.
The Beef+Lamb New Zealand Economic Service's annual stock survey confirms what many predicted. Many farmers were forced by the drought to reduce ewe and beef cow numbers because of a lack of feed. The result will be fewer lambs and calves born this spring.
The export cattle slaughter is forecast to decrease 2.7 per cent to 2.2m head in the coming season.
Beef+Lamb's chief economist Andrew Burtt said pregnancy scanning results in the North Island were hit by the drought's affect on ewe condition at mating.
"We're expecting lambing percentages to be down by up to 20 percentage points in the regions worst hit by drought in the north.
"The South Island fared better and scanning results were down only a few percentage points – and that's against last season, which was favourable in the south."
Overall, sheep numbers were down 1 per cent to 30.94m at June 30, compared to 31.26m a year earlier.
Burtt said breeding ewe numbers were also down 1 per cent overall, but the numbers in each island moved in opposite directions.
"Ewe numbers in the North Island decreased by 2.7 per cent to 9.52m, while South Island ewe numbers were almost static at 10.69m.
"Hogget numbers reflected a similar pattern – back 1.3 per cent overall, but down 3.5 per cent in the north and up 1 per cent in the south."
Meanwhile, cattle numbers fell 1.3 per cent to 3.69m, from 3.73m in 2012. "Again, the North Island figures tell the drought story, with numbers back 2.5 per cent – with particularly large decreases in East Coast and Taranaki-Manawatu – while the South Island's cattle numbers rose 1.8 per cent."

This is why education is so important. For me it was hard to know what I wanted to do for a living when I graduated high school with a 1st grade education. Everyone acts like you've got a lot of possibilities. But that's just a fantasy. There aren't too many possibilities if you aren't well educated.
"my DREAM", typical, she justs wants someone to pay her way so she can pursue her fantasy. Women's Lib is basically a joke, how many women have gotten great degrees and then when married decided they no longer wanted to work outside the home. I can name 2 Nurse Practitioners and a Lawyer. Can't have it both ways ladies.
That depends on what you happen to think is a good life. I know plenty of people that do blue collar jobs that make a good living. I also know people with a college degree working at fast food joints. It's not the education , it's the person and their willing to work to make a life for themselves. Your message above proves something to me and that is you would rather complain than actually work for a good life. If you don't have any faith in yourself and your abilities don't expect anyone else to have any either. Fantasies only happen when someone puts the work into them to make them happen. Otherwise you might just as well buy lottery tickets because you have just as small a chance of winning in life.
I agree. I'm not going to buy lottery tickets. I still have to work on my education. But writing here on GoComics helps. Writing was something we didn't do in our school. When you write you also learn to read, which is another difficulty I have – reading at a college level. We've got to improve our public schools! The academics in my school just didn't exist because sports took too much importance. Sports and academics are in a conflict for resources in the public schools.
Why don't we teach the basics in our public schools? You know, reading, writing and arithmetic. Ever wonder about that? Experts say it's because the elementary school teachers are themselves poorly educated. And if you don't know the material yourself, it's going to be hard to teach it. But it isn't going to be easy to change this. Right now everyone just blames the students for not having enough gumption. But that isn't it. The public school classes are devoid of content. Education is important, even for a blue collar job. The public schools have a goal of making sports, particularly football, a substitute for academics.
The reason we have publicly funded schools in the first place was because it was determined many years ago that an education creates discipline in people. Along the way, especially with the advent of sports, we have lost that meaning. Now school is a place to park your kids until they age out. Sports gives them something consuming to do. Everyone is happy because parents don't want wise kids. My dad enjoyed blaming me for his bad marriage. I believed him and felt bad about his bad marriage to my mother. If I were well educated I would have never stood for that. So, you see, inadequate education systems have multiple purposes for adults.
I think it's interesting that we are not to complain about how bad our schools are, when they are bad. But it's perfectly good to complain about kids not wanting to learn. In our school I remember our classes of kids waiting for the teacher to say something. The teachers would get mad at us peering up at them from our desks. They were usually coach/teachers. They probably were incapable of teaching and were hired for their sports abilities.

IceWEB™, Inc. (IWEB), a leading provider of Unified Data Storage appliances for cloud and virtual environments as well as secure, infinitely scalable Cloud Services, announced today that CEO, Rob Howe, issued the following comments concerning the filing of the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
As you look over our filings for fiscal 2012, the period ending in September of 2012, I would ask you to keep your reading of these results in context. As I have repeatedly predisposed anyone who was listening to understand, in addition to the personal issues surrounding the tragic passing of IceWEB Founder and CEO, John Signorello in late May of 2012, the company's business activity suffered a major hit as well. So let me repeat, when I took over at IceWEB in late July, sales were at a standstill, customer and reseller confidence had dropped to zero, and those who had recently purchased anything bearing the IceWEB brand were extremely concerned that there would not be a company around to support them. Recovering from such a difficult set of issues takes a lot of hard work—and time.
The hard work began immediately, and to our credit, the IceWEB team of dedicated associates, dug in and made the improvements I asked of them in near-record time. They have proven themselves to be a committed and hard-working group, with the best long-term interests of IceWEB and our shareholders as their driving concern. We repaired old processes, instituted new ones, developed new products and launched them, identified and solidified new relationships and began rebuilding old ones, along with revamping our marketing and sales processes resulting in shipping product. We are no longer the demoralized company hanging by a thread that we were when I came on board the last week of July. Much has changed—and all for the better.
Repairing the sales and customer relationships proved to be more difficult and has taken longer than we hoped. Many customers and resellers, understandably, took a "wait-and-see" attitude. Wait and see if IceWEB will make it. Wait and see if somebody else will make the first move toward IceWEB's technology. Wait and see if the new guy can do what he says he'll do. We exited September with a great deal of work remaining in repairing our direct and reseller sales channels, but that work was underway, and was showing positive signs.
Therefore, I ask you to read these Fiscal 2012 results in the context in which they took place. Many of you repeatedly send me emails asking me to give updates on the current progress of the company. I always reply to you the same way, that the reporting cycle for our company is the place where those results will be revealed and nowhere else. I continue to stand by that.
Our Q-1 2013 results will be reported in accordance with SEC regulations in February. All of us here at IceWEB wish you a most prosperous New Year.

There are several IoTs: the Industrial Internet, Consumer Wearables, Wearables and Healthcare, Supply Chains, and the movement toward Smart Grids, Cities, Regions, and Nations. There are competing communications standards every step of the way, a bewildering array of sensors and devices, and an entire world of competing data analytics platforms. To some this appears to be chaos. In this power panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, Bradley Holt, Developer Advocate a...

Digital Initiatives create new ways of conducting business, which drive the need for increasingly advanced security and regulatory compliance challenges with exponentially more damaging consequences. In the BMC and Forbes Insights Survey in 2016, 97% of executives said they expect a rise in data breach attempts in the next 12 months. Sixty percent said operations and security teams have only a general understanding of each other's requirements, resulting in a "SecOps gap" leaving organizations u...

Cognitive Computing is becoming the foundation for a new generation of solutions that have the potential to transform business. Unlike traditional approaches to building solutions, a cognitive computing approach allows the data to help determine the way applications are designed.

The cloud is a 'Dynamic Tool for Dynamic Apps' and resource allocation is an integral part of your application architecture, so use only the resources you need and allocate /de-allocate resources on the fly.

It's easy to assume that your app will run on a fast and reliable network. The reality for your app's users, though, is often a slow, unreliable network with spotty coverage. What happens when the network doesn't work, or when the device is in airplane mode? You get unhappy, frustrated users.

Razer Blade Pro first play: pictures and hands-onPocket-lint
Razer gaming laptops are rare creatures in the UK, so when Pocket-lint caught a glimpse of the latest superthin Razer Blade Pro at a gaming event ahead of this year's Computex we jumped at the change to have a play.
With a 17.3-inch 1080p LED display, the Razer Blade Pro takes on that typically large screen form factor, but trims the fat to be one of the slimmest, most stylish gaming laptops we've seen. It's as portable as they come, measuring less than 23mm deep when the top is shut.
But the slim form does come at various costs. And we don't just mean the $2,500 (£1,630) price for the 256GB SSD option. No, it's the fan noise that's most disappointing as it's clearly audible. Slap on some headphones and you may not care, but compared to its fatter competitors the Blade bleeds out the unwanted audio. Furthermore the chassis is a sucker for fingerprints - it's hard to keep it looking pristine when every touch mars the body and trackpad.
Style is at the forefront of this Razer. In addition to the twisted green snake emblem on the lid, the layout is specifically tailored for gamers. The trackpad doubles as an LCD display and has been pushed to the right-hand side, in front of 10 programmable macro keys. Cooler yet is that each key has an LCD behind it to display specific symbols depending on the game in play, assuming compatibility with the title.
Battlefield 3 was our shoot-'em-up of choice which, thanks to the latest fourth-gen Intel Core i7 processor, 8GB of 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM and beefy Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M graphics - complete with its own 2GB of GDDR5 - was running super smooth.
Will we see the Razer Blade Pro appear in the UK market this year is one big question? Apparently not - it's available for pre-order in the US and Canada only. A shame as it's one hot looking bit of gaming kit that we'd like to see more of on Brit shores.

What Tenants Can't Store: Self-Storage Talk Erupts with Praise of Facilities Who Display, Enforce Their Rules
Off the top of my head, I can think of a handful of items that should never be put into self-storage: human beings or animals; perishable food items; hazardous or highly combustible materials; and myriad others. Common sense should prevent tenants from attempting to lock up this stuff in their units, but as any manager can tell you, that's not the case. That's why Self-Storage Talk, the largest online community in the industry, currently features a thread called "I Love This: Specific Things You Can't Store."
The thread began with moderator MamaDuke giving praise to member Storage Dunstable. Storage Dunstable had posted a link to the facility website on another thread, and MamaDuke, after reading that thread and visiting Storage Dunstable's website, was so impressed with Storage Dunstable's list of things tenants can't store that she started a separate thread to express her joy. One of the key functions of SST is to show some love to industry peers when they do something admirable. But even more important, by highlighting this list, MamaDuke has pointed all members to a resource they can use. This resource-sharing concept is an invaluable benefit to the forum. Member A Space Place Storage replied with, "Wow, very interesting. We should have a big poster that states all this and keep in our office to remind our customers not to store these items." Then other posters started posted concerns that tenants won't read a "you can't store these" sign anyway, so it may not be worth having. In either case, Storage Dunstable's strategy to post a clear list on its website and, presumably, provide to new tenants, is a strong one.
Want to find more useful resources on SST or perhaps post some of your own? If so, register your free username by visiting www.selfstoragetalk.com and clicking on "register." The sign-up process is easy and takes only a few minutes. Once you're logged in, make sure to check out the Resource Center, where you can upload and download various documents and marketing materials.

Objective: To derive the optimal BMI and waist circumference (WC) cut-off values to predict clustering of cardiovascular risk factors in Hong Kong Chinese adolescents.
Research Methods and Procedures: A total of 2102 Hong Kong Chinese 12 to 19 years of age were recruited. Participants were considered to have clustering of risk factors if at least three of the following risk factors were present: 1) high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ≤1.03 mM, 2) low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ≥2.6 mM, 3) triglyceride (TG) ≥1.24 mM, 4) fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥6.1 mM, and 5) age-, sex-, and height-adjusted systolic or diastolic blood pressure (BP) ≥ 90th percentile. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves were generated to identify the optimal age-adjusted BMI and WC cut-off values to predict clustering of risk factors in boys and girls separately. These age-adjusted BMI and WC cut-offs were transformed to percentile values. Cole's lambda-mu-sigma (LMS) method was used to obtain smoothed age-specific BMI and WC at these percentile values.
Results: The areas under ROC curves for BMI in girls and boys were 0.85 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.77 to 0.92] and 0.76 (95% CI, 0.66 to 0.85), respectively. The respective areas under ROC curves for WC in girls and boys were 0.82 (95% CI, 0.74 to 0.91) and 0.78 (95% CI, 0.68 to 0.87). The optimal BMI thresholds were at the 78th percentile for girls and the 72nd percentile for boys. The respective values for WC were at the 77th percentile for girls and the 76th percentile for boys. The sensitivities and specificities of these cut-off values ranged from 72% to 80%.
Discussion: Age- and sex-specific BMI and WC cut-off values can be used to identify adolescents with clustering of cardiovascular risk factors.
