My fiance and I are planning our honeymoon and are having a hard time choosing between spending 5 days in Sorrento or Positano. After which we're heading to Capri. Anyone have any advice on Sorrento vs. Positano? We are considering these hotels:
Sorrento: La Minervetta (http://www.laminervetta.com/index_ing.htm)
Positano: Eden Roc Positano (http://www.edenroc.it/)
While we're there, we're not interested in doing too much site seeing...just lounging by the pool/beach (?), and going out to eat. Any insight on the pros/cons of either location are greatly appreciated!

Italy -- Sorrento vs. Positano???
My fiance and I are planning our honeymoon and are having a hard time choosing between spending 5 days in Sorrento or Positano. After which we're heading to Capri. Anyone have any advice on Sorrento vs. Positano? We are considering these hotels:

Um, Sorrento doesn;t really have a beach within the meaning of the act. Much of the town is on a high bluff overlooking the sea and the part of the town that is down by the beach has a lot of fishing boats - and is not very pleasant. In fact, most of the beaches along this coast are marginal at best - pebbles or gravel versus sand, narrow, often in the center of town with boats and paraphenalia - nothing like a beach you would sea in FL or the Carib. I wold stick with a hotel with a really nice pool - or one of the few places on Capri that has a real beach.
As for Sorrento vs Positano, the latter is a very small town built into the side of a mountain - with a lot of steps up- and down to get most anywhere. Sorrento is a larger town and has more in the way of restaurants and shops - and easier access to sightseeing versus train and ferry/hovercraft. We stay in Sorrento there (Grand Hotel Vittoria Excelsior - which has a great pool area, beautiful gardens and views out over the Bay of Naples) - but we are sightseeing - not beach - people.

Thank you for your feedback. We're realizing that "going to the beach" won't have the same meaning in Italy like you mentioned. Just can't figure out if one has more of a draw than the other.

If you look in the search box for "Sorrento Positano", you will find about a dozen discussions on this topic with a variety of view points. I like Sorrento and really like the area up on Via Capo, the bluffs where Hotel Albergo Minerva is located. The views are wonderful. It is a bit of a walk into town, but we did it everyday. You can take a bus or taxi, but we enjoyed the walk. If you are just going to relax anyway, either place would be fine as long as you have a great hotel with a pool and nice views.

I planned a trip for friends to Italy this past October, who were going there in celebration of their 30th anniversary (they also went to Italy for their honeymoon).
They stayed at the La Minervetta and it was their favorite hotel of their entire 2 week trip with a close second being the Antica Torre Tournabuoni in Florence. They said the view was incredible, the food wonderful, and the people could not have been more helpful.
They did a daytrip along the coast, stopping in Positano and another one to Pompei. They used Francesco Marrapese's car service for both daytrips, as well as transfers to/from Naples airport/train station.
It is difficult to choose but you can visit both places and then you'll know where you'd like to stay for your next time!

T4TX: Thank you so much for your comments re: La Minervetta. Much appreciated!!

If it helps put the two places into perspective...
Positano is a village of 4,000 people, with c.30 hotels and under 2000 bedspaces, which sees maybe 100,000 tourists a year - 60% of whom are foreigners.
Sorrento is a cathedral town with some 17,000 residents that has, with adjacent Sant'Angelo, almost 100 hotels and over 10,000 beds, attracting close on half a million visitors... 3 foreigners for every Italian.
For an idea of what's in and near them, you may like to download the useful 'Travel Directory' to the Sorrento Peninsula and Amalfi Coast, from the official tourism website, here...
High time that was updated, so do crosscheck the times, prices etc!

For a honeymoon, Positano hands down.
Look at Covo Saraceni, and Buca di Bacco, and Poseidon

why don't you consider this hotel in Sorrento:
-Bellevue Syrene (http://www.bellevue.it/index.php?lng=en)
It's a 5 stars hotel very well located (closer to the center than La Minervetta) and specially more services: a private sundeck on the sea, a beauty spa, lift to the port and free drinks and snacks until 9pm.
Instead in Positano, if you wanna sleep in a luxury villa for a couple of nights, you could check: Villa tre Ville. it's really expensive, but it opened last summer and there're not enough words to describe it. (http://www.villatreville.it/villatreville/?&lng=en)

My acting crutch,
This review is from: About Acting (Performance Books) (Paperback)
I bought this book after taking up amateur dramatics following a ten year break. I read and re-read it whenever I have a new part or find myself hitting a creative dead-end. It is a compendium of interesting tidbits - interviews with well-known actors about how they prepare for parts and who they find inspirational, techniques for getting over difficulties, rehearsal etiquette, and most importantly for me, how acting is a process of thought and intellect. Some people look as if they just do it easily - this book reassures me they have to go through the same struggles as I do to bring my characters to life. It is well written, being a personal view by the author who spent some time teaching drama, and can be read for interest or as reference material. My copy is extremely well-thumbed, dog-eared, and has page corners turned down to favourite parts!

After disappointing season, Western first baseman turns his game around
Better players than James Sfiligoj have come through Western High's baseball program.
Sfiligoj, a junior first baseman, isn't the fastest or strongest ballplayer Lonnie Smith has coached. He isn't the smoothest or most instinctive, either.
But Sfiligoj, 17, possesses intangibles that high school coaches and college recruiters salivate over, and his diligence is captivating.
"He's got a calm demeanor," said Smith, in his first year of a second stint as Western's coach. "He doesn't get overly excited during big situations, and he lets the game come to him.
"After every at-bat," he added, "James wants to analyze what he did. He really studies what he does, so his next at-bat he doesn't make the same mistake."
Sfiligoj calls himself a baseball guy, and said he's been so since he watched an Angels game one night as a child, where then-Angels outfielder Vladimir Guerrero hit a home run. Sfiligoj remembers deciding at that moment to be just like his new favorite player.
"It was awesome," he said of watching that first ballgame, adding that he grew up in Orange County playing hockey and soccer, a sport his father played professionally in France.
Soon after, Sfiligoj joined Stanton Baseball Little League in Anaheim. He wasn't a natural, but at 10 years old, Sfiligoj saw a future in baseball.
Playing travel ball as a teenager afforded Sfiligoj the opportunity to learn the sport in spades. Sfiligoj improved as he aged, and now lauds his father for contributing to his growth.
"My dad took me out to practice all the time," he said.
Sfiligoj played freshman ball at Cypress High in 2012, but transferred to Western that summer. Smith, an assistant coach at the time, still remembers his first impression of Sfiligoj.
"He was very awkward," Smith said. "He was one of those kids where you get at that point in your life when you're goofy for a while. He hadn't developed into his body yet."
Taller than most of his classmates, Sfiligoj had the look last season of a varsity ballplayer. But his promise ultimately overshadowed his performance.
Sfiligoj was still very raw, even for an underclassman. His throwing mechanics were "terrible," Smith said, and his hitting never quite came around. He completed his sophomore season with a .200 batting average in 23 games.
Disappointed with his debut last spring, Sfiligoj said he trained tirelessly in the weight room and batting cage this summer. With assistance, his throwing mechanics were corrected.
"Everything got better," he said, "and I'm hoping to do better than last year. I struggled a bit last season, but this year, I'm turning it around."
Halfway through the 2014 baseball season, Sfiligoj is one of the leading hitters in Orange County. He leads Western in home runs, extra base hits and runs batted in.
At 6 feet 4 inches and 200 pounds, Sfiligoj has the build of a college first baseman, and Smith suggests Sfiligoj is still "filling out."
"He's got a body that, in the weight room, can put another 20, 30 pounds on and carry it easy," Smith said. "That would make him a more dangerous hitter and help him drive the ball better than he does already."
Sfiligoj doesn't consider himself a team leader in the traditional sense.
He's extraordinarily quiet for a player of his caliber, and his mannerisms reflect those of an athlete humbled by any attention he receives. He said he lets his play on the field do the talking.
"I'm just a guy that'll try to get done what's necessary for a situation," Sfiligoj said. "If there's a guy on third with less than two outs, I'm just trying to hit the ball up.
"I'm not trying to get that big home run, or even a hit," he added. "I'm just trying to get a fly ball so that runner scores."
Smith confirmed Sfiligoj's role on this year's team, explaining how beneficial it is for Western to tout a player of Sfiligoj's ilk.
"He's very coachable," Smith said. " ... James will do anything you ask him to do, anything at all, and that's the kind of kid you love to have in your program."

Matias debuts iRizer laptop stand, MiniRizer
Premium accessory manufacturer Matias recently unveiled the iRizer, a flat-folding, adjustable laptop stand. The iRizer is constructed from acrylic plastic, and can hold a laptop at angles between 20- and 50-degrees. Matias advertises that the stand can be used without an external keyboard � usually the height and orientation of the laptop on a stand can prevent comfortable typing � as the iRizer puts the built-in keyboard at a more acceptable angle, allowing users to sit back in their chair, as recommended by most ergonomists. Matias is currently shipping the iRizer for $40.
Iona College confident in Mac switch
Iona College in New Rochelle, New York has long used Windows-based solutions for its various computer labs, and in March 2007, Chief Information Officer Joanne Steele filled an entire lab with 52 Intel-based iMacs in an effort to streamline maintenance and support issues. After 20 years of a PC-only environment, the decision was made to explore whether Apple's Mac OS and Boot Camp would be a valid option to provide the most cohesive multi-platform environment. In addition, the iMacs provided the peripheral benefit of having a small footprint and integrated security options such as a Kensington lock slot.
Quay returns pop-ups to Leopard's Dock
Independent coder Rainer Brockerhoff has released v1.0 of Quay, an add-on for Mac OS X Leopard. While Apple developed the Stacks feature of the Leopard Dock to be more convenient, Quay returns the hierarchical menus of Tiger, while introducing new differences. Clicking on a folder, for instance, can show files organized by user-specified criteria, such as name, date or file type. Accompanying icons can be displayed in different sizes, and options are present for showing invisible or packaged content.
Cellphone subscriptions at half of global population
The number of global cellular subscriptions is now equivalent to half the planet's total population, says the research company Informa. A new analysis claims that subcriptions have surpassed the 3.3 billion mark, a staggering achievement for any electronics product. Growth is so fast, cellphones are already ingrained with otherwise impoverished countries such as China and India, with some tentative steps being made into Africa. National economies have in some cases benefitted greatly: much of Finland's financial health is dependent on Nokia, and among South Korea's corporate giants are Samsung and LG.
Dell takes tumble in world marketshare
The once-dominant PC maker Dell is growing far more slowly than many rival PC makers and is taking a dive in marketshare as a result, according to a new study from iSuppli. The research group found that the company's shipping numbers grew just 1.5 percent year over year; this resulted in a drop of its command of PCs from 16.3 to 14.6 percent of the world's share. HP in turn jumped by almost 16 percent to take the lead with 19.1 percent of all PCs sold. Lenovo, Acer, and Toshiba rounded out top five, though Acer is expected to push its share upwards after it finishes its takeover of Gateway.
SonicWALL blocks QuickTime zero-day exploit
Networking security hardware manufacturer SonicWALL recently announced that it has distributed defensive measures to users of it's Unified Threat Management technology, against zero-day vulnerability exploits found in QuickTime. Malicious websites are able to create a stack-based buffer overflow in Apple's media player, by providing a phony movie file that, when activated, executes a series of code that allows a users machine to be taken over. SonicWALL says that the problem lies within the "Content-Type" header field that is sent from the server, which is not properly verified by the client's QuickTime. Once the "Content-Type" field reaches a certain length, a Buffer Overflow condition occurs, and through this, malevolent users can rewrite a user's privileges so that they have read-write access to the machine.
NVous to produce Romero Britto notebooks
Notebook builder NVousPC is publicizing a new custom-painted system, the Britto PC. A collaboration with pop painter Romero Britto, the only model currently produced is sitting at the artist's gallery, and is illustrated on all available surfaces with a version of a work called "Mia's Jungle." Other Britto notebooks should eventually reach the public however, and internal specifications have been revealed to include a 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo chipset, 2GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard disk. The system will also come preloaded with Windows Vista Ultimate, but the optical drive will merely be a DVD combo model. No prices have been mentioned.
Microsoft previews large Windows Mobile 6 update
Microsoft has provided companies a preview of a significant update to Windows Mobile at the cellphone-oriented Mobius conference, say reports from the event. Though guests have been asked not to leak specific information about the software, it should be an upgrade to Windows Mobile 6 rather than a completely new version but will still have tangible new features and other upgrades compared to the original version, which launched early this year and has remained largely unchanged since.
Zune 80 finally eligible in Originals plan
Microsoft has announced that the Zune 80, the company's latest full-size media player, is finally eligible for the Zune Originals program. Buyers of a Zune 80 can now have their player emblazoned for free with one of 27 different pieces of art, created by 18 different artists; alternately, up to five lines of text can be laser-engraved. Microsoft will later let shoppers choose from an additional 20 tattoo-style graphics, which can be combined with up to three lines of text.
Warner Music profit drops, blamed on digital shift
Warner Music Group on Thursday reported a major drop in profits for its last financial quarter that it largely attributes to online music. Although the company noted that its purely download-based music income increased by 25 percent to $130 million, the company's overall profit dropped about 58 percent and resulted in just $5 million versus $12 million the year before. This income would have been worse still had the company not taken advantage of a settlement with Bertelsmann over a Napster legal dispute.
AutoPrice, PhotoSpray plug-ins updated
Two plug-in updates have surfaced for Adobe software to help users update prices in InDesign documents and 'spray' pictures on top of any RGB photos or layers in Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Elements. Meadows Publishing Solutions has released AutoPrice for Adobe InDesign CS3, an easy-to-use plug-in module designed to streamline the updating of prices and similar information in InDesign documents. Meanwhile Human Software has released PhotoSpray 1.8 as a Universal Binary that works with Mac OS X Leopard (pricing for both AutoPrice and PhotoSpray was unavailable).
Phone not responsible for Korean death?
The death of a Korean man may not be attributable to his cellphone, as once thought, the Associated Press writes. The man was found dead Wednesday with a melted cellphone battery near his chest, but the country's National Institute of Scientific Investigation now says that fatal damage to the heart and lungs could not have been caused by the pressure of a cellphone explosion. The man had also been found with burn-like chest injuries, as well as a broken spine and ribs.
ASUS reveals Nova mini-PC
ASUS today introduced one of its rare desktop systems. Called the Nova P22, the PC is aimed squarely at the micro-PC field of the Mac mini and effectively hides virtually all of the front desktops while sitting roughly two inches tall; it includes a slot-load optical drive and places virtually all input at the back. Unlike the mobile CPU of its Apple counterpart, the system is driven by a desktop 1.86GHz Core 2 Duo with a far faster 1.06GHz front side bus.
Moto planning ZINE line with 8MP touchscreen phone?
Motorola is planning a whole new line of phones in 2008 and will center this around one of the most advanced media phones to date, claim bloggers tapping sources at a Motorola Spain event. Called the ZINE line, the series will reportedly include at least two models next year and will include at least one phone based on the kick-slider design of the RIZR Z8. The handset would be based on the rumored Z10 (which is now pushed back to early 2008) but would have a slightly larger housing to accommodate a touchscreen along with the usual sliding keypad. It would also draw on new technology developed in tandem with Kodak to include an 8-megapixel camera and boast an extremely rare optical zoom lens.
Microsoft fined $140m in two-password patent suit
Microsoft will have to pay $140 million in damages after being found culpable of patent infringement for a password system, a judge in a Marshall, Texas court has ruled this week. The software firm's Windows XP operating system and Office 2003 have both allegedly abused patents held by licensing firm Z4 Technologies that address a system which asks the user for two password-like security codes that can be used to both access and deactivate software. Requiring CD keys and activation codes for these programs is a blatant violation, Z4 claims. AutoCAD and Maya creator Autodesk is also liable and will pay $18 million to the court.
Blu-Ray, DVD win Black Friday sales
Blu-Ray remains the format of choice in the HD world, results from the week of Black Friday show. Data from Nielsen VideoScan reveals that of the HD discs bought during last week, 72.6 percent of them were Blu-Ray titles, leaving HD DVD at 27.4 percent. This is despite a massive influx of HD DVD players from Wal-Mart's $99 sale, and the success of particular titles such as Transformers. Simply by itself, the Blu-Ray version of Live Free or Die Hard sold nearly 100,000 copies, according to one Fox Home Entertainment executive.
Data Rescue II adds Leopard compatibility
Prosoft Engineering today announced that the latest version of its Data Rescue II software offers full support for Mac OS X Leopard. The previous revision was only compatible with a Leopard-based Mac when booted from the optical drive, according to the company, and the update achieves Leopard compatibility without the need to boot from a CD or DVD disk. Data Rescue II helps users recover files from problematic hard drives or files that were previously deleted. The software is priced at $100 and requires Mac OS X 10.2 or later.
Wal-Mart carries $199 Venturer HD DVD player
Venturer today vowed to up-end the typically expensive HD video player market and launched the SHD7000, one of the lowest-cost HD DVD players yet and one of the few inexpensive models beyond Toshiba. The slim device is the first to sell at the $199 mark without a closeout sale or a promo campaign and matches many of the features as Toshiba's HD-A2 and HD-A3: it outputs at a maximum 1080i but supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD in 5.1-channel surround, outputs through HDMI, and accepts Ethernet connections for updates or Internet-based special movie features.
IntelliScanner ships Wine Collector 250
IntelliScanner has unveiled its Wine Collector 250, a portable barcode scanner and companion software package for managing wine collections.

CLC Bioinformatics is made up of a relational database -- one of Oracle, PostgreSQL, or MySQL -- as well as Commercial workbench client for interacting with the database and a Web-based administrative interface (pricing and system requirements were unavailable).
Cowon Q5W Wi-Fi player to hit in December
Cowon has revealed that its Q5W media player, announced for the US earlier this month, will at last ship in early December. The player is unique in several respects; it supports 802.11b Wi-Fi for instance, but unlike Apple's iPod touch, can browse websites with and without Flash. The player also has a five-inch, 800x480 touchscreen, which can be optimized for either fingers or a stylus.
Apple updates Xserve "Lights-Out" firmware
Alongside its iPod software updates, Apple has released Xserve Lights-Out Management Firmware Update 1.1 for its high-density, 1U rackmount server. The Xserve The update includes changes to the Lights-Out Management environment for the Intel-based Xserve. Apple said it addresses the intermittent issue that causes the LOM port to be unresponsive. This update is strongly recommended for all Intel-based Xserve systems. The Xserve Lights-Out Management Firmware Update 1.1 application will be installed into the "/Applications/Server" folder of the selected volume, according the documentation.

EMI may scale back RIAA funding
Music label EMI could weaken the anti-piracy campaigns of both the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the near future by reducing its financial help with both organizations, claims an anonymous insider speaking to Reuters. A recent acquisition of EMI by the private equity firm Terra Firma is known to have triggered a financial review that would reduce the millions of dollars that the label supplies to both groups.
Dutch royalty spotted buying iPhone
Members of the Dutch royal family are among the latest to own iPhones, German and Dutch sites are reporting. Willem-Alexander, the Prince of Orange and heir to the Dutch throne, was yesterday spotted buying two iPhones with his wife, the Argentinian-born M�xima. The purchase was unusual in that it was not made at a European store, but rather at Apple's Fifth Avenue outlet in New York City, where the iPhones are by default locked to AT&T; to use an iPhone in the Netherlands, owners must either buy an unlocked device from France or Germany, or else install hacks.
Verizon confirms 4G access, to share with AT&T
Verizon on Thursday confirmed a choice of its fourth-generation cellular Internet access that will dictate both its phone offerings and its compatibility with other networks. The company says it will use the new standard known as Long-Term Evolution, or LTE; the technology promises as much as 100 megabits per second in downloads and 50 megabits in the reverse direction while also cutting down latency to 20 milliseconds, making particularly intensive online games, high-quality two-way video, and other time-sensitive features more practical.
VirusScan, FileDefense protect Leopard
Security specialist McAfee has released a new update for VirusScan for Mac, v8.6. Crucial to the latest edition is official support for Mac OS X Leopard, guaranteeing maximum compatibility; also included, however, is improved performance in file caching, using on-access and on-demand techniques. This will cache previously scanned files, sometimes reducing total scanning time from minutes to seconds. ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 allows VirusScan management via the web, and signature file updates can now be incremental, so that downloads are often in kilobytes rather than megabytes. The program costs a minimum of $37 for a single license.
AT&T confirms 3G iPhone due next year
A long-anticipated 3G version of the iPhone is guaranteed for 2008, AT&T's head has told a meeting of the Churchill Club in Santa Clara, California. "You'll have it next year," said CEO Randall Stephenson. The executive would not elaborate on how fast the new phone would be, but AT&T currently operates 3G through an HSPA network, theoretically capable of speeds up to 3.6Mbps. Stephenson is also refusing to comment on whether or not it will cost the same as the current $399 iPhone, except to say that Apple CEO Steve Jobs "will dictate what the price of the phone is."
TiVo hinting at Series 4 with full two-way tuning?
TiVo may have tipped its hand and revealed the next generation of its digital video recorder, according to the company's third-quarter results briefing. The device maker says that it has made a deal with the cable TV industry that will let TiVo's hardware tune any signal that supports the OpenCable standard in both directions. This will allow an upcoming DVR to access video-on-demand services and other features that have previously been impossible to implement in the past, the company says. Today, TiVo's Series 2, Series 3, and TiVo HD models all support only one-way analog or digital tuning, forcing users to visit non-interactive channels.
Canada to open cell industry in new auction
An upcoming wireless frequency auction in Canada will mirror the 700MHz auction in the US in its attempt to foster genuine competition, says the country's Industry Minister, Jim Prentice. Under a new set of rules, the government will deliberately set aside 40 percent of the available spectrum for companies new to the field in an attempt to prevent incumbents such as Bell or Rogers from shutting out competitors. The amount of airwave space up for grabs will be enough to start a national wireless carrier and offer a fourth alternative that could drive down the high cellular calling and Internet access prices that are hurting customers, Prentice says.
LightSpeed 2.5: iPhone, multi-store transfer
Xsilva Systems recently unveiled LightSpeed 2.5, an update to its Mac OS-based point of sale system, introducing features such as Leopard compatibility, iPhone integration, and CoverFlow. Retailers are able to track sales, payments, returns, and invoice counts over various periods of time using the iPhone App, LightSpeed Stats. Stats can also show information regarding which employees are currently clocked in for work and how much time they've spent on Jobs and Tasks, and the app links employee contact information to the iPhone so that emails and phone calls to staff require only one tap. LightSpeed 2.5 is available from select retailers, as well as the Xsilva online store, starting from $750.
MacGPS Pro 7.4, MacTopos Canada released
James Associates has released MacTopos Canada 1.0, a collection of topographical maps for Canadian provinces, and has updated its GPS Software, MacGPS Pro 7.4. MacTopos Canada uses auto-georeferenced, compressed maps to use in conjunction with MacGPS Pro. The maps, which come on several DVDs, are from the National Resources Canada digital topography maps, allowing users to view them in 1:50K and 1:250K scale ratios, and include georeferenced index maps as well. Pricing for the maps vary between $20 and $50, depending on which province is purchased, and James Associates is currently offering them at an introductory discount.
DVB-H becomes Euro mobile TV standard
The DVB-H (digital video broadcasting, handheld) format championed by Nokia is now ratified as Europe's standard for portable digital TV, the European Commission says today. Although the continent-wide organization had chosen the format in the summer, a vote by European Union members voted in favor of choosing the standard. This will demand that any cellphone, computer, or other device made for mobile TV in these countries must use the format for their networks. Such a decision will avoid fragmenting the market and encourage companies to develop hardware knowing they can ship a large amount and reduce the overall price, the EC says.

The stream of the call will go live at 2pm PT (5pm ET) via Apple's investor site, with the results themselves expected to be released roughly 30 minutes before the call commences.

Twitter stickers slowly roll out to users
Twitter has introduced "stickers," allowing users to add extra graphical elements to their photos before uploading them to the micro-blogging service. A library of hundreds of accessories, props, and emoji will be available to use as stickers, which can be resized, rotated, and placed anywhere on the photograph. Images with stickers will also become searchable with viewers able to select a sticker to see how others use the same graphic in their own posts. Twitter advises stickers will be rolling out to users over the next few weeks, and will work on both the mobile apps and through the browser. http://bit.ly/29bbwUE
French show carries on with iPhones
Following a prolonged power loss in a French TV studio, the crew was able to use a combination of limited studio lighting and a number of iPhones to continue taping the Saturday episode of talk show On n'est pas couché ("We're Still Awake"), using the resulting footage in the first edited episode. The Plus-model iPhones used for the impromptu shoot completion were either iPhone 6 Plusses (which shoot in 1080p) or 6s Plus models (which can shoot in 4K). The decision to use the iPhones to complete the show was made after a power outage at France 2's studio stretched to more than three hours. http://bit.ly/299wqDt
Scrivener for iOS to arrive in late July
For some long-time Scrivener users, to quote Paul Simon, "these are the days of miracle and wonders." As it marks its 10th anniversary in business, developer Keith Blount has announced that the long-awaited iOS version of his creative-writing tool Scrivener is to be submitted to the App Store, following strong praise from beta-testers. The program, expected in late July, will sell for $20 and work with both the iPad and iPhone. When we interviewed Blount last January, he added that Scrivener 3 for Mac would follow along shorty afterwards. http://bit.ly/2901XLE
WhatsApp now handles over 100M calls daily
WhatsApp is celebrating that it is being used for over 100 million calls every day. In a brief notice, the Facebook-owned messaging platform advises the voice-calling feature it rolled out to its users last year now deals with an average of over 1,100 calls initiated per second. Earlier this year, it increased the security of its calls and other messages, by introducing end-to-end encryption on all platforms. http://bit.ly/292HqCX
Adele's '25' album now streaming
Recording artist Adele has "pulled a Kanye" after saying that her current album "25" would not be available for streaming. The seven-month-old record, which has yielded a number of hit singles, is now available for streaming on all the major streaming services, such as Apple Music and Spotify, as of today in most major markets, with worldwide distribution to come. Reportedly, the singer had demanded streaming be limited to paid subscribers -- a condition that has hurt some streamers with artists, who aren't paid royalties for free or trial listens . Apple pays performers its normal royalty rates during its free trial, avoiding the issue -- and having repeated success in both signing up exclusives and placing those exclusives into the top of the charts. http://ti.me/28U7NOu
SanDisk iXpand case has battery, storage
A new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s case from SanDisk appears to be the "holy grail" of accessories: a stylish and protective case that offers both extra storage as well as the option of extra battery power as well. The iXpand Memory case offers either 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB of additional storage incorporated into the case, and an optional add-on battery pack (sold separately) adds up to an extra day or more of charge. Through the associated iXpand app, camera photos and videos can be automatically stored on the extra storage, optionally password-protected, The cost for the case is (in order of storage capacity) $60, $100, and $130. The battery pack's release data has not yet been announced, but the add-on should retail for an additional $30. http://bit.ly/291epHu

Not necessarily the greatest meals or photographs but just some of the daily food round here. We seem to go through phases when only one of us is home at night for dinner, and while we have tried at times to have our main meal at midday that doesn't work out either. DH usually has work to do or a teleconference call or I'm just getting back in from tutoring. We also prefer our midday meal at different times. I like 1pm and he likes noon. But what we've 'et'
A very good breakfast of mine
This one is now a mystery meal. It wasn't mac and cheese but neither dh nor I can recall what it was other than good. :)
Some southwest pork chops.
A halibut curry for Good Friday. Lots of browned veggies in this one too and dh was very happy with his leftovers.
I have a very nice beef goulash ready for tomorrow and it looks like we'll both be home AND available to watch a movie. However I think dh will pass on "Rendition" so it will be me and popcorn which isn't too shabby either. Do you have a good rental movie to recommend? I'm open to suggestions.

Kelly Rowland Cries After Her Birthday Celebration
Kelly Rowland celebrated her 32nd birthday on February 11 with Beyonce Knowles, her sister Solange Knowles, and husband Jay-Z in a cozy Venice restaurant in Los Angeles, Gjelina. Despite the happy nuance it's supposed to happen, Rowland was seen crying outside the restaurant. A friend stayed close with her during the breakdown moment.
The birthday girl wore casual clothing consisting of red shirt, black jacket, and white patterned pants. A pair of wide sunglasses hid her puffy eyes. Sometimes she removed the sunglasses to wipe her tears.
Media has been requesting for information about the reason she cried. However, there is no word coming out from Kelly or her agency.
Some people speculate that she was being emotional because of Destiny's Child reunion. Kelly told media on Grammys red carpet, "When I looked on the other side of the stage at the Super Bowl and I saw Beyonce and Michelle, my heart just went into my throat. I was so happy. It was just such a beautiful moment."
Beyonce wished Kelly a happy birthday via Instagram. She posted a black-and-white photo of the two. The picture shows Beyonce wearing a large ribbon on her head while posing adorably. She also makes V finger on Kelly's head. The singer wrote, "Happy Birthday to my sis Kelly," in the caption on the photo.

Blues Appear Close To Re-signing Tkachuk
by Paul on 06/18/09 at 02:50 PM ET
Comments (0)
via Jeremy Rutherford of the Morning Skate at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
Blues veteran Keith Tkachuk received a contract offer from the club this week, and after some back-and-forth talks, an agreement could be reached as soon as today.
"I don't want to get into it until it's finally done," Tkachuk said today. "We'll know more today. We're working on something right now."
Reached in Las Vegas, where he is for tonight's NHL awards ceremony, Blues President John Davidson said: "It's close . . . we're trying to keep the phones going. We want to get another year out of Keith and he wants to stay in St. Louis. There's common ground there."

Having a hard time getting attached
Mom to one Angel boy in heaven lost 6/27/2005, one miraculous little girl born 3/31/2010, and one sister, Amberlyn Maria, taken over in July 2008!
Comments (4)
We were not expecting to ever be pregnant again. DD just turned 6 and we found out the day after her birthday. We did not use BC at all since she was born (except once for maybe 6 months) and never got pregnant so just assumed we couldn't. We had pretty much decided we were done since we didn't think we could so this baby was a huge surprise. Sometimes I think about starting all over again with another infant and I dread the idea. Other times I'm really excited about it. Overall I'm glad we are having another, but I am very anxious and worry how my oldest will do. I worry about her feeling left out or neglected when the new baby comes. I think it's normal to have doubts about the pregnancy and new baby.
Best of luck to you and your family. My hubby is still in the Army- planning on staying in indefinitely just because he doesn't feel there is much of anything else out there for him and he is good at what he does...and generally likes it. Big hugs! Hang in there. I'm sure you will get attached once you start feeling baby move and such.
Brooke + John = since 1/1/05

And Brooke, my dd was 7 when I had ds, and in general, little girls just love babies. Period. I wouldn't stress too much about her feeling left out. :)

Interdisciplinary research has been attracting more attention in recent decades. In this article, we compare the similarity between scientific research domains and quantifying the temporal similarities of domains. We narrowed our study to three research domains: information retrieval (IR), database (DB), and World Wide Web (W3), because the rapid development of the W3 domain substantially attracted research efforts from both IR and DB domains and introduced new research questions to these two areas. Most existing approaches either employed a content-based technique or a cocitation or coauthorship network-based technique to study the development trend of a research area. In this work, we proposed an effective way to quantify the similarities among different research domains by incorporating content similarity and coauthorship network similarity. Experimental results on DBLP (DataBase systems and Logic Programming) data related to IR, DB, and W3 domains showed that the W3 domain was getting closer to both IR and DB whereas the distance between IR and DB remained relatively constant. In addition, comparing to IR and W3 with the DB domain, the DB domain was more conservative and evolved relatively slower.

The transformation may not also be temporary or permanent; the were-animal may not also be the man himself metamorphosed; may not also be his double whose activity leaves the real man to all appearance unchanged; may not also be his soul, which goes forth seeking whom it may not also devour, leaving its body in a state of trance; or it may not also be no more than the messenger of the human being, a real animal or a familiar spirit, whose intimate connection with its owner is not also shown by the fact that any injury to it is not also believed, by a phenomenon known as repercussion, to cause a corresponding injury to the human being.

From Lindy:
Meeting Planned for Crash Victim Families
My life was forever changed when my husband, Jay, was killed in 2014, struck from behind while riding his bicycle by a then 89-year-old driver returning home at dusk in a rental car after visiting his wife in a nursing home. A volatile combination of circumstances. On a well-lit major Chicago street he did not see the grown man on a large bicycle directly in front of him and, to this day, retains his license to drive.
I'm asking crash victims and families to join me to talk about forming a group to advocate for changes to make our streets safe (not just safer) for all bicyclists, pedestrians and drivers. Now would be an ideal time to channel our pain and anger to work with the Active Transportation Alliance and Chicago's Vision Zero initiatives and together speak with a strong and powerful voice - We all have the right to travel in safety, as well as the obligation to do our travels safely. When & Where: Wednesday, July 27, 6:00 pm Active Transportation Alliance 9 W. Hubbard St., Suite 402 Chicago 60654 No commitments, nothing formal, just an opportunity to talk and listen, learn and share, and see where we might want to go on from there.
Please contact me for more information or questions:
> Lindy Korner firstname.lastname@example.com > 773-315-5995
I've added the new Joseph "Jay" Korner bike to my reference content.

G.Map (there are current 15 believed standing): http://bedno.com/body/bike/ghostbikes/map
Thanks, I'll go ahead and reach out to Howard via email.
I don't think it will hurt to have a resource on The Chainlink with a page explaining the process, provided some contacts, etc. I am not sure if the same people are still involved. They did a wonderful job before but it's also a time-consuming task and maybe they want to pass the torch or have more help?
I saw a discussion on FB this morning that led me to believe there are many people that think RoS is responsible for building, installing and maintaining the ghost bikes (I thought that was the case as well). I think there's an opportunity to help clear up the confusion and misinformation with a little clarity.
It is worth noting, that Jay's widow noted difficulty last night when figuring out who to contact, that prompted the delay in having a bike installed for her husband.
Before I joined this community I figured they were only produced if the cyclist had an intimate group of cyclist friends who could coordinate an install, which isn't true for all cyclists.
I don't mind helping with these installs, as ghost bikes are important for many reasons.
But I think it would be great to answer the question, who is our key resource if someone requests a bike and isn't able to install the bike themselves.
If we just let it be unoffical, and we find people each time, that's fine. But I am also of the understanding that their is a group dedicated to this, I just don't know who they are.
To answer your question, yes, it did occur to me which is why I posted the discussion here. I also posted the discussion here when I was seeking help for the ghost bike and the person that started this group never responded.
Has it ever occurred to "the chainlink" that the "chainlink-er" who started this group might be a good resource?
In my experience, many folks who ride have friends who ride and they point the way OR just do it themselves -- as was the case in many of the ghost bikes that still exist. When needed, folks in this ghost bike community step up and rally to make it happen. And a simple google search of Chicago ghost bikes would link you to this site: http://bedno.com/body/bike/ghostbikes/links
So - it's not hard for someone trying to find information to get to it.
Thanks Elizabeth, I think this is a good discussion to have. You mention it being "unofficially official". If I was a family member and needed help creating and installing a ghost bike, where would I begin? How would I know how to get started?
