Briefly: JiveBox review, Apple traffic
In brief: We have a review of the Logic3 JiveBox, Apple comes in 12th in Web traffic, the IK Multimedia Plug and Mix promo has been announced, dates have been set for the Lasso Developer Conference 2008, and Aperture/Sony Alpha 700 RAW tests have been posted ... We have posted a review of the Logic3 JiveBox. This all-in-one cube houses a 2.1 speaker system that delivers a surprising amount of volume for such a compact system. The JiveBox comes complete with IR remote, 3.5mm line in cable, AC adapter, and an assortment of docking cradle plates to fit various iPod sizes new and old. The focal point of the JiveBox is the 7-inch glossy black block that encases all of the speakers and neatly hides the cables underneath the unit. A changeable glowing LED light strip that can be changed to red, blue, or green complements its simple design.
iTunes 7.6.1: better Apple TV 2.0 compatibility, more
Apple today unveiled iTunes 7.6.1, a minor update to its media player software, advertising several bug fixes and increased compatibility with Apple TV 2.0. As with other recent updates, details on the bug and compatibility fixes were scarce, with the update saying little more than what was written above. The update is available through Software Update, but hasn't yet surfaced on Apple's support website.

Mossberg review pits X300 vs. MacBook Air
The Lenovo ThinkPad X300 does well but falls short of Apple's MacBook Air in key areas, says a new review by Walt Mossberg. Due for release on February 26th, the X300 is found by the journalist to offer more features, though it was significantly bigger, heavier, and more expensive than the Apple notebook. Prices start at $2,476 for a bare-bones model or $2,799 for a ready-to-run version with a half-size battery; while appropriate for the cost of the 64GB solid-state drive, the system has no option for a traditional hard disk to lower the system to Apple's starting $1,799 price tag, Mossberg notes. The likely most popular X300, which comes with a DVD drive and a full-size battery, will retail for close to $3,000.
FCC to hold open hearing on traffic shaping
The FCC will on Monday hold a public hearing to discuss the ramifications of traffic shaping, it has announced. The focus will specifically be on the concept of net neutrality, an FCC policy which traffic shaping is said to violate, by dictating which services and/or websites an ISP customer can use. Panels at the hearing will be staffed by academics, engineers, lobbyists and politicians, in contrast to a workshop held last year which was mostly helmed by industry representatives and supporters. The hearing is scheduled for 10AM to 4PM at the Harvard Law School in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

LG SH150A sports 26 million colors
The Korean home division of LG is releasing a new version of its SH150 slider, the SH150A. The A refers to the introduction of a new, 2.2-inch AMOLED screen for the phone, which boosts color depth to an unprecedented 26 million colors -- more than one and a half times the number found on most HDTV sets. This is mainly for the sake of watching DMB mobile TV, which can also be displayed in HD resolution.
ASUS outs webcam-equipped MK computer LCDs
ASUS has catered to both frequent video chatters and gamers with the launch of two new displays. Both the 22-inch MK221H and the 24-inch MK241H sport swiveling 1.3-megapixel cameras with microphone arrays, giving users of any OS with USB webcam support the ability to join video chats without extra hardware or software drivers. HDMI is equally standard on the screens and allows them to double as a TV equivalent for outside sources, such as Microsoft's Xbox 360 or a dedicated Blu-ray player. Chin-mounted 2W stereo speakers provide sound for users without the space for separate audio.
iPhone GO suffers EDGE outage, AT&T fixes problem [U]
An EDGE network outage that seems to be based around pre-paid AT&T iPhone GO clients is on its fifth day today, leaving many without mobile internet access. According to Scott Kleinberg of iPhone, Therefore I Blog, users have been experiencing intermittent success surrounded by failure to access the EDGE network. Several have reported switching to the billed service and are back on the network. AT&T has not officially commented on the matter, other than to say they are working on a solution to the problem.
Google opens AdSense to web videos
Google today expanded its AdSense web service to include AdSense for video, one of the first large-scale ad revenue systems for web-based footage. The feature allows videos from YouTube to either embed ads in the videos themselves or to use the company's overlay system to put text ads on top that change based on the video and its surroundings: ads will change based either on text on the video's host site or on cues in the video itself, Google says. In-video ads are paid out based on impressions while text ads are based on the number of actual clicks.
Linutop 2 offers more speed, capacity, capabilities
French mini-PC vendor Linutop yesterday unveiled the Linutop 2, a more powerful version of its tiny Linux-based PC, offering faster internals, greater capacities, and an optional VESA mounting bracket. While the original is geared towards being a web surfing kiosk or digital sign computer, the Linutop 2 is designed primarily to be a home computer, according to LinuxDevices. Linutop is selling the model for 280 Euros (~$410US).
HP's UMPC to use Via CPU, hit $499 price?
HP's Compaq 2133 ultra-mobile PC may use non-Intel hardware to achieve an exceptionally low price, says an off-hand remark in an article comparing the devices. Although previous leaks have pointed to Intel's Silverthorne forming the backbone of the 8.9-inch miniature notebook, the report claims that at least one version will use a Via processor and sell for $499, putting the computer into the same price .league as the ASUS Eee PC and Everex CloudBook. This is most likely to involve Via's notebook-oriented C7-M processor and should be helped by the use of Linux instead of Windows as the stock operating system.
Motorola announces DOCSIS 3.0 modems
Though typically associated with cellphones, Motorola has announced its very first collection of modems based on the DOCSIS 3.0 standard, which has yet to deploy in any wide fashion in North America but can dramatically increase the possible bandwidth of cable Internet connections. Aimed at the average consumer is the SURFboard SB6120, which permits as much as 160Mbps in standard DOCSIS mode, or 195Mbps under Euro-DOCSIS; because of its internal design, this works without the need for hybrid support by cable operators.
DeIMG turns images into HTML tables
Satirical software and news company The Daily Grind today unveiled DeIMG, a re-branding of its software That's Not A Picture, which is designed to turn images into table data, for, as the author puts it, "browsers which support tables but not images". The largely pointless and futile app converts PNG, JPG. GIF, and PDF files into HTML, XHTML, or XHTML+CSS. Usage of the application is largely in question, as the developer proudly displays users' qualms and frustration on the product's webpage.
NVIDIA intros Quadro FX 3600M for notebooks
Following its introduction of the mainstream-oriented GeForce 9600 GT, NVIDIA has also announced a new video card for professionals, the Quadro FX 3600M. Slotting into notebooks, the card is equipped with 512MB of G-DDR3 memory, and uses a 256-bit interface that provides up to 51.2GBps of bandwidth. Its primary purpose is for tasks such as CAD, modeling and rendering, and as well as various kinds of simulation.
Syncro SVN Client 3.1 adds new view modes
Syncro has launched an update to its SVN Client software, bringing it to v3.1. The program is multiplatform, and lets users quickly share, track and update code or documents. New to the upgrade are two extra modes for the Synchronize view, compressed and flat. Flat simply displays resources as a list, while compressed displays SVN content as a two-level tree, grouping resources by parent folder. Each mode prevents people from having to dig into subfolders or receive the full list of material.
HighDesign 1.8 reads AutoCAD files, more

MS to publish free APIs for Windows, Office
Microsoft today quickly halted speculation about its significant announcement by revealing that it will freely publish the application programming interfaces (APIs) and communication protocols for many of its key products, allowing any company looking to use some of Microsoft's techniques for their own software. The access extends to both Windows Vista and Server 2008 as well as the .NET framework that underpins some application code. Office 2007 and Microsoft's latest server suites for Exchange, SharePoint, and SQL are also covered, according to the company. More than 30,000 pages are expected to go online and will include documentation of how the company implements cross-platform standards.
DLO ships VideoShell for 3G Nano
iPod accessory builder DLO has a new version of its VideoShell case, designed specifically for the iPod nano. As with other VideoShells, the Nano model is made out of polycarbonate, offering stiff protection from impacts and scratches while allowing access to the clickwheel, dock connector and headphone jack. Because it is transparent, it can also fully protect the screen; to further improve video watching, a sliding kickstand rests the Nano at an angle on flat surfaces. DLO is selling the new VideoShell for $20.
Apple seeks personalized podcast patent
Apple is developing a technology that would let users tailor the content of a podcast to their own needs, says a new US patent filing. Recognizing that current podcasts are essentially one-way downloads, the company describes a system that would let users set criteria that appears in the podcast. Software loaded on the subscriber's computer would either allow direct control of the podcast's contents by the user or else retrieves data already stored on the computer for later use. This information is promptly sent to a server that processes the information and automatically generates both current and future podcasts in a custom RSS feed based on that data; different audio and video could be added to each file from a basic template.
Patents: Multitouch device and control methods
The US Patent and Trademark office today published five of Apple's patents, describing versatile multi-touch input device and control methods in a wide array of fields. The device appears to be an ergonomic multi-touch keyboard-style device that can accept a wide array of touch commands, including typing, resting, pointing, scrolling, 3D manipulation, and handwriting. The patents involve actions that are simple for the user to know and remember, while the system has little difficulty differentiating between the actions.
Relationship 1.1 adds collaboration, .Mac

Relationship is further integrated with Address Book, and can assign event reminders for each person.
T-Mobile offers unlimited VoIP calls for landlines
T-Mobile this morning revealed HotSpot@Home Talk Forever, a new spin on its existing voice-over-Internet service that takes the previously mobile-only concept to landlines. Similar to Vonage and other VoIP systems, subscribers attach a landline phone to a specialized router that that eliminates the need for long-distance fees; users can place unlimited calls to any place in the US. T-Mobile's variant includes a special Linksys router that also supplies 802.11g Wi-Fi for other devices in the home, including T-Mobile cellphones already using the mobile version of HotSpot@Home.
XFile 2 introduces 'seam carving'
Human Software has released XFile 2, the latest version of its specialist resizing plug-in for programs like Photoshop and PhotoPaint. The software gives users more control over how an image will altered, and attempts to preserve more detail. XFile 2 incorporates an option called "seam carving," also known as non-linear resizing; this lets users alter the size and aspect ratio of an image while keeping a particular focus area intact.
Paramount last studio to adopt Blu-ray
Paramount has become the last studio to drop HD DVD, the company quietly said in a statement to the Hollywood Reporter. The movie house said it would begin releasing movies on Blu-ray in the near future and claimed it was "pleased" that the industry had chosen a single HD movie disc format. This should help the end user, Paramount claims. The company follows previous HD DVD holdout Universal in switching to Blu-ray and came more than a day after Toshiba halted HD DVD production, leaving both studios with virtually no alternative but to opt for Blu-ray.
Linkin Park plays at Apple SoHo store
Linkin Park's Apple Store concert, hinted at by band member Mike Shinoda, was played last night at the New York City SoHo location. The event got underway just after midnight according to reports, and was filmed and recorded for a later release on the iTunes Store, sources for Billboard say. The finished product will likely be ready in March, featuring songs such as "Wake," "My December" and "Bleed It Out."
Microsoft preps mystery "significant" news
Microsoft will make a "significant company announcement" within hours, the firm announced today. Without providing details, the software developer notes that it will hold a mid-day conference and makes clear that the news is unrelated to its attempted acquisition of Yahoo. However, the presentation will include both Microsoft chief Steve Ballmer, chief software architect Ray Ozzie, and legal counsel Brad Smith, suggesting that the news will involve legal issues relating to the company's core Windows or Office businesses. Servers and Tools senior VP Bob Muglia is also said to be involved.
NVIDIA intros GeForce 9600 GT mid-range card
NVIDIA's contribution to the ongoing Game Developers Conference is a new addition to its staple GeForce graphics card line. Marking one of the instances in which the graphics chip maker is launching its mid-range card first rather than its flagship, the 9600 GT is designed to replace the outgoing 8600 GT and dramatically improves performance: in addition to boosting the clock speeds for the core and memory from 540MHz and 1.4GHz to 650MHz and 1.8GHz, the 9600 doubles the number of onboard stream (pixel and geometry) processors to 64.

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

Guardian Angel Guides Descents
By: Terese Schlachter,"RECON" Senior Producer
It's hard to keep a good man down- especially one who's holding the world record for the highest parachute jump. In 1960, then Captain Joseph Kittinger floated in a balloon gondola nearly 103- thousand feet above earth, then jumped out. He was testing parachute systems and other gear. What it didn't seem to test were his nerves.
"I'd made the jump a thousand times in my mind so when it came time to go I said a silent prayer, hit the button and jumped," the retired Colonel told SSgt Josh Hauser.
He couldn't have known that a dozen years later his nerves would be tested again, in a very different descent.
"I was leader of a (mission) over in Hanoi … probably 100 airplanes … and I started chasing a MiG. I was very close to getting him- to shooting him down – when another MiG crawled up my rear and shot me down," recalls Col Kittinger. "I was immediately hog tied, thrown into a vehicle and taken … to the Hanoi Hilton."
He spent eleven months there as the senior ranking officer among the newest captives, who were kept separate from those who'd been taken prisoner earlier.
"You have to make decisions that affect other men's lives in a very hostile environment." But Kittinger says they were able to maintain discipline and seniority and it became like another tour of duty. He spent 30 days in solitary confinement.
"When the US started bombing Hanoi and I heard that first bomb come down I knew it was the B-52s. I knew the war was over. I was in the deepest, darkest dungeon there was in Hanoi and they needed that area for the B-52 crews they were shooting down so they moved me into another prison cell." He wound up with American POW's who'd been held for six or seven years. "It was like Rip Van Winkle," Kittinger says, "For the next 40 days I was interrogated by the guys in that room about hair styles and what was going on in the world!" He was released in March of 1973, but calls the experience one of the greatest of his life. "Every one of us was a better person when we came out of there."
The Colonel retired in 1978. But the former POW and record-holder wasn't finished accumulating titles. In 1984, he was the first solo balloonist to cross the Atlantic Ocean. One early morning, during that passage, he made radio contact with a random nearby commercial flight. Turns out, his wife, Sherry and his crew were on board. The pilot let them chat for a while. Sherry and the crew were all in Italy a day and a half later when he landed – grounding it at about 30 miles per hour.
"I got knocked out of the gondola and fell about ten feet and hit the only rock within a half mile and broke my foot," he told Josh. "But it was an awful lot of fun."
Of all of his adventures he counts as the "hairiest" the 1989 Gordon Bennett Cup- the premier event of world balloon racing. Somewhere over Baja he stalled and ran out of ballast. The water temperature was 59 degrees. "If we went in the water we were dead. We finally started drifting and about four o'clock in the morning we landed on an uninhabited island, and that saved us."
The name of the island: Guardian Angel. Probably not the first time Kittinger's run into his.
In 2012 Kittinger played a key role in the Red Bull Sratos launch in which Austrian Felix Baumgardner broke the Colonel's own record. Kittinger currently lives with this wife in Orlando. His story and other adventures in military ballooning are featured in "RECON: Lighter Than Air". Click here to watch!

FIV-positive cats deserve forever homes and Furkids in metro Atlanta is helping make that a reality by waiving all adoption fees for their FIV-positive kitties and offering free medical care for one year. Click here for more information on this special promotion.
FIV stands for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus - it is a virus that affects a cat's immune system. FIV weakens the immune system making them more vulnerable to other infections. However, FIV-positive cats can live safely with FIV-negative cats.
Each week I will be featuring Furkids' FIV-positive kitties who are available for adoption. This week's featured cat is Baxter - a seven-year old male brown tabby kitty. Here is Baxter's description from the Furkids' website:
Baxter was rescued by a Furkids volunteer from Cobb County Animal Control. He is a brown tabby guy who is looking to be the king of his castle. Baxter is what you would call an Alpha cat, so he will need to be the only cat in his new home. He has a unique look with his large head and a little less than proportionate smaller body. But he knows he is a tough cookie.
Baxter would be happy in a home where he can watch nature from the top of a cat tree near a window. When this fellow goes into 'love mode', he may just climb on top of the sofa and nuzzle his head into your neck with all the affection he can. He does want to let you know that he is FIV+ but that is not going to stop him from living a great life. FIV+ kitties can live long and healthy lives with just a little extra care. If you would like to give this guy his own palace, then apply to meet Baxter today.

Web application framework and Java middleware
Web application frameworks help enterprise application developers focus on the business logic that makes enterprise application indispensable without focusing too much effort on ensuring that the applications work across browser platforms. The write once, run anywhere promise of the Java language only extends so far. Server-side developers must still concern themselves with Java integration into the enterprise architecture. Frequently, Java middleware platforms will be necessary to integrate enterprise Web applications.

I lay there on my back in Savasana, listening to the geckos chirp as they ran back and forth on the ceiling after the bugs that had emerged in the moonlight. The pavilion was completely open there on the beach. The class began as the sun set over the Philippine Sea and we went through our asanas as it sank into the ocean. These yoga classes kept my sanity on Guam during my guy's two deployments. I would park our Jeep in front of the hotel, walk through the throngs of Japanese tourists, down the torch-lit path that wove between lush tropical gardens to the Spa to sign in. I loved going a little early to sit on my unrolled mat and watch the outrigger crews row in the calm bay. It was where I went to get a little more grounded and collect my thoughts.
This salad is like going to that yoga class. It nourishes the soul and breathes life into your body. Full of vitamin rich walnuts and apricots, it's satisfying without weighing you down. I'm trying to focus more on recipes similar to this. Not necessarily salad, but clean, health full meals. I've noticed it really does make a difference in my energy levels. There's been a bit of pizza, cookies, and er, pie this week. So real food is making it's way back on to my plate, and it's a welcome change around here.
Apricot + Goat Cheese Salad with Honey Balsamic Dressing
- Mixed Greens
- Cherry Tomatoes, halved
- Green Onions, chopped
- Dried Apricots, halved
- 4 oz Goat Cheese, crumbled
- Walnuts, roughly chopped

- For the Dressing:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon honey
- salt and pepper
- 2 small or 1 large clove of garlic minced

Profile Last Updated: April 03, 2009
This company was started by Myer Dunn in Montreal in 1927 and the name soon became synonymous with the Canadian deli experience. The main location in downtown Ottawa takes up close to half a block of Elgin street real estate. You would have a hard time missing the large neon sign announcing its presence. Step inside and you're transported into a Montreal deli with the walls decorated with period photographs and various memorabilia.
Smoked Meat to Stay
The menu starts off with Dunn's famous smoked meat sandwiches. Smoked is the meat that made Dunn's famous, but in true deli style there are options of all beef salami, chopped liver, smoked turkey breast and roast beef. There are also six different kinds of club sandwiches from which to choose and an appetizer menu which includes deli staples like blintzes, latkes, and verenekes. Feeling like more of a meal? The generous menu includes everything from steaks to burgers to souvlaki and spaghetti. For dessert, their famed massive cheesecake is a particular treat.
Smoked Meat to Go
Take the taste to go. This location has a counter specifically devoted to take out orders with a large menu of large sandwiches and everything else. The counter is open 24 hours, seven days a wee, and delivery is free within the restaurant's two kilometre radius.
Little Dunn's
Dunn's on Queen is a smaller version of its big brother with a more limited menu and hours that cater to the downtown breakfast and lunch crowd. A deli counter stretches the length of the restaurant's first half, and tables of four are scattered throughout. Breakfast specials come quick and cheap. '40s pop tunes, the likes of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin play in the background as you participate in the small town diner feel.
Order In: Delivery free on orders over $15
Eat Cheap: Little Dunn's has breakfast specials for under $5

- Official Site: StateOfPlayMovie.net
- Release Date: April 17, 2009
- Director: Kevin Macdonald
- Main Actors: Russell Crowe, Ben Affleck, Rachel McAdams, Helen Mirren
Adapted from the popular 2003 BBC miniseries, State of Play stars Russell Crowe as Cal McAffrey, a veteran reporter working for The Washington Globe. When a petty thief and a research assistant/mistress to his former college roommate-turned-Congressman (Ben Affleck) both turn up dead, Cal stumbles across disconcerting clues linking the two seemingly unrelated deaths. With the help of an ambitious young reporter -- sorry, blogger -- Della Frye (Rachel McAdams), those clues quickly grow into a full-blown corporate conspiracy. The question is, how far are they willing to go to get the complete story?
2006's Last King of Scotland officially marked Kevin Macdonald as both a director to watch and a valuable commodity in Hollywood -- a man who could turn around a smart and engaging fact-based thriller. With the help of a script cowritten by Tony Gilroy (best known for Michael Clayton and the Bourne films) and Matthew Michael Carnahan (less known for the politically themed flops Lions for Lambs and The Kingdom), Macdonald has delivered on that promise with another taut, engrossing thriller in State of Play. While much has been made of the casting shake ups that turned Brad Pitt and Edward Norton into Russell Crowe and Ben Affleck, the film's strong suit remains its cast. Crowe, McAdams and Helen Mirren (as the Globe's hard-nosed editor-in-chief) all shine, with Robin Wright Penn and Jason Bateman providing strong supporting performances as well. If there's a weak link here, it's -- surprise! -- Affleck, but it's almost too easy to pick on the guy. At eight years Crowe's junior, Ben seems miscast as his contemporary, and is unable to inhabit his role with quite the same ease.
Plot-driven thrillers like State of Play are usually only as good as their twists, and in this case they range from painfully obvious in the beginning to head-scratchingly rushed at the end. That said, Play is a rare exception to the rule: a thriller that's good almost in spite of its plot machinations. Instead, the film is at its most compelling exploring the murky middle ground between Crowe, Wright Penn and Affleck's characters and in the buddy movie-like interaction between the grizzled Crowe and rookie cub McAdams (they even have the same haircut!). Equally intriguing is the running subplot about the death of the American newspaper and fact-based reporting in the face of our current blog-happy culture. Those themes may not get the blood running quite like the film's more conventional action sequences (or the lovely Ms. McAdams), but it does ensure your brain will be racing almost as fast as your heart.

Sleaze Ball Headliners Leaked
- 9
Wed 16th Jul, 2008 in Local News
Since the announcement of the theme of this year's Sleaze Ball – The Villain's Lair – tongues are already wagging about who'll be headlining the party.
Same Same has heard rumblings that the headliners for the Hordern Pavillion will be Irish-Australian house/electro group The Potbelleez and the legendary DJ Alan Thompson.
Those of you who were lucky enough to catch The Potbelleez's performance at Mardi Gras party will remember how much they rocked the house. No doubt they'll rock it once more.
And Alan Thompson needs no introduction! Maybe you know him from his work on last year's Ministry Of Sound Housexy release? Perhaps it's from his slick sets at DTPM at Tank? Or from his dirty, hot beats at Action? Maybe it's from the countless other gigs he's played around Australia… and the world for matter. We look forward to hearing him play at Sleaze. We've been told that he's been asked to keep it dark and sexy.
Sleaze – The Villain's Lair – is on at Entertainment Quarter, Saturday October 4. Ticket price and further line up announcements to come. Stay tuned to Same Same for updates.

by Wesley Parritt
(Winston Salem, Nc. USA.)
I have about 2 and a half years experience driving semi tractor trailer. Mostly Flatbed but some experience with dry van.
Recently I've spent 11 months OTR getting jobs through brokers and on GET LOADED. I have a Nc. Drivers license CDL-A with Hazmat Doubles Triples and Tanker endorsements. I also have my TWIC card.
I thought I would be able to be home more often after a year. My boss didn't see it that way and we parted company. I have a little girl who just turned 19 months, i would like to be able to spend time with her. Bigger trucking companies with their forced dispatch, and the driver isn't a man he's a piece of equipment, attitude.
Home on the weekend for 34 hours and being days away if an emergency arises, isn't my idea of being a good daddy.
I have other things to do around home and I need a solid few days a week with my daughter. If I were home nightly, a day or two on the weekend would be fine. I would be willing to work Sunday through Thursday, or three on four off or four on three off, or even seven on seven off.
If I could have a set schedule, I could plan my off time accordingly.
Is there anyone out there who feels the same way or has the same needs for on time off time. Please call me, I want to work. (419)-308-8944 or E-mail email@example.com

Broccoli stalks are known to hold more nutrients and mineral in the stalk. Most times, they are cut off and discarded into the trash. However, they can be used in preparation for a better meal to enhance the nutritional value and the usage of them. They can be sliced thinly to be considered in a stir-fry dish to garnish and to be eaten in a meal with other vegetables. As well as soups or salads to be eaten in preparation for a meal, with slicing off the outer skin that can be tougher in taste then the florets. They then can be added to a dish for rich flavor and benefits.
The El Paso, TX grocery stores to farmer markets offer locally grown foods to the community. Most of the broccoli's are sold as the floret and with the thick heavy stalk all in one. Look for the whole piece, for at time just the floret of the broccoli can be sold with the broccoli stalk removed. A start can now begin with, instead of throwing them out now they can be added with a purpose. If not able to use at that time store in refrigerator and can search out recipes to help, incorporate in a mealtime at a later time. Moreover, thinking of adding more green to a meal remembering it can be done with introducing broccoli stalks that can then add minerals and nutrients hidden in the stalk of the broccoli.

text: February Fashion Faux Pas Last February, I made a fatal fashion mistake. The man I was dating — and crazy about — asked me to "dress sexy" for our Valentine's Day lunch. "What fun," I thought. I pulled out my shortest skirt — which I should have relegated to one of my daughters' closets years ago — and paired it with a form-fitting Chinese-inspired blouse, thigh-high fishnets, and what I like to call my tango shoes. My overcoat was a silky black designer trench that was also way too short. The moment I left the privacy of my home, I realized I'd gone off the deep end. My outfit was more like a parody of sexiness than the real thing. At the elegant and stuffy hotel restaurant where we dined, I could feel people scrutinizing me as if I were a cash pickup. Forget about a romantic aftermath. My outfit quashed any notion of that. I'd felt playful getting dressed, but when I went public, my whole being screamed, "Imposter!" My date thought I looked great, but I couldn't go through with the fantasy. My friend Karen, a forty-something newlywed, faced a different version of the same dilemma when her husband asked her to wear something sexy to a business dinner. She felt confused: What did he mean by sexy? "I've never thought about buying 'sexy' clothes," she told me. "I just wear what I like." Karen is a confident woman, but this small fashion problem left her absolutely flummoxed. My very attractive friend Maggy, meanwhile, feels guilty about never wearing the lacy lingerie her husband continues to buy for her. "I should try," she tells me, "but the lace itches." Not to mention that she's going through menopause and not exactly bursting with desire: Wearing anything overtly sexy, she feels, would send the wrong signal. My "Sexy" ResolutionSo what are we supposed to do — dress to please the guy or to please ourselves? The latter, obviously. But on a romantic occasion, especially one as loaded with expectations as Valentine's Day, it can be easy to try a little too hard and maybe fall back into ways of dressing that no longer suit us. The clothes I wore to my lunch date fiasco last year were relics of a past life. But they were right there in my closet, ready to grab. This is why regular wardrobe purges are so important. They save us from dressing like the women we used to be. The things that make me feel sexy now speak to me in a private fashion language I've learned over the decades: fabrics that feel luxurious against my skin; bold, artistic jewelry; toe cleavage. Once we've reached a certain age, we know what we like. The trick is knowing how to kick it up a notch. This Valentine's Day, Karen may wear a version of the outfit she finally decided on for that business dinner: a black off-the-shoulder top with fitted jeans, dangly earrings, and killer shoes. Her husband likes it, and that makes her feel sexy. Maggy may put on her very favorite black dress and consider, perhaps, wearing that lacy lingerie as a gift of love to her husband. And me? I don't know where Cupid will find me this year, but I'll know enough to wear clothes that make me feel comfortable in my own skin — just as I do every other day of the year.

Lauren by Ralph Lauren faux crocodile belt, $58. Payless faux-lizard pumps, $20. Neckisses silver necklace, $300.When you want to look more sensual than sexy…Go for body-skimming skirts and sweaters in supple fabrics (think cashmere and suede).

Calvin Klein kidskin pumps, $110. Fossil silver concha belt, $48. Julie Sandlau silver hoops, $175. When you want to look ageless and just trendy enough…A richly cabled sweater dress adds sporty, confident style to knee-high boots and opaque tights.

Suzi Roher belt, $225.When you want to feel pretty but a little naughty…A ruffled silk blouse is sensual but subtle.

ATLANTA - When Eric Shanteau touched the wall second at the U.S. Olympic trials, he was overcome by the joy of reaching a lifelong goal.
The celebration didn't last long.
Shanteau had barely locked up his trip to Beijing when he was forced to deal with a gut-wrenching choice: Should he have surgery for the testicular cancer hardly anyone knew about? Or, should he put it off for another month so he could swim at his first Olympics?
Shanteau chose the Olympics. Surgery will have to wait.
In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, Shanteau said he learned just a week before leaving for the U.S. Olympic trials that he has cancer.
"I was sort of like, 'This isn't real. There's no way this is happening to me right now,'" he said by telephone from the team's pre-Beijing training camp in California. "You're trying to get ready for the Olympics, and you just get this huge bomb dropped on you."
His doctors cleared him to compete at the trials in Omaha, Neb., determining he wouldn't be at great risk to delay treatment. Then, Shanteau surprisingly made the team in the 200-meter breaststroke, finishing second ahead of former world-record holder and heavy favorite Brendan Hansen.
He's putting off surgery until after the Olympics because it would keep him out of the water for at least two weeks, ruining his Beijing preparations. The 24-year-old Georgia native will be monitored closely over the next month by U.S. Olympic team doctors and vows to withdraw if there's any sign his cancer is spreading.
"If I didn't make the team, the decision would have been easy: Go home and have the surgery," said Shanteau. "I made the team, so I had a hard decision. But, by no means am I being stupid about this."
Still, there are no guarantees.
"With any cancer, you want to find it early and treat it early for the best outcome," Dr. Brett Baker, the Austin, Texas-based urologist who delivered the news to Shanteau, said Friday. "It's difficult to say in his scenario what to expect. The risk, of course, is that time is an opportunity for disease progression."
Seeking out advice from team doctors and other outside experts, Shanteau came up with own plan. He will have his blood tested once a week and a CT scan done every two weeks through the Olympics, hoping that will be enough to keep a handle on the disease.
"If something comes up abnormal," he said, "then that's kind of a barrier I shouldn't cross."
In most cases of this type, Baker said it's impossible to know for sure exactly what type of testicular cancer the patient has - or, even the very slight chance that it's not cancer at all - until the tumor is removed surgically for a biopsy.
"Sometimes, the best decisions are not always exactly the way the doctor sees it," Baker said. "I don't consider him crazy at all. I think if he's happy and content with playing it out this way, that's the most important thing."
If Shanteau can't compete, the Americans would add Scott Usher as their second swimmer in the 200 breast. The third-place finisher in Omaha was told of Shanteau's condition the day after the race and encouraged to keep training.
"I've been trying to play in my head what I would do in his situation," Usher said Friday before heading to a solo training session at Purdue University. "I don't know if I would have taken the same route he has, to be honest. ... Cancer is not something you want to mess around with."
It was found after Shanteau noticed an abnormality and was finally persuaded by his girlfriend to see a doctor in Austin, where he trains on a star-studded team that includes Hansen, Ian Crocker and Aaron Peirsol.

Could I Be Pregnant if....
Alright, so I had sex with my boyfriend on the 8th of May... And we did not use a condom... And we were a little nervous that I was gonna get pregnant because of our stupidity. lol. But I ended up getting my period yesterday. Is there a chance I could still be pregnant even though I got my period? I'm thinking of taking a pregnancy test just to be sure but I've been told by many people it would be a waste because I got my period. I'm only questioning this because we didn't use a condom at all. Any information is good information, please comment. :) Thanks.

The workaround is as simple as renaming a couple of files in AVG's main program directory. Furthermore, in an attempt to save you time, we've written a quick batch file which renames the files and disables the notification area for you. In this revisited version of the tip, we have updated a working fix for the latest version of AVG. It should also work with all language versions of the program, unlike our first try at disabling the undesirable notification panel.

"From our above analysis one thing is clear - some real powerful things come in small packages and the Xolo X500 is definitely one of them. It has really outperformed other smartphones in the same price range as well as in the graphical comparison with the Desire SV. The display is vibrant and has good viewing angles..."
From thinkdigit
Sentiment: Strong Buy
LAST year Intel..........THIS year ARM... but you keep on trying to decieve people here.
Last year, we exclusively managed to get our hand-on the first Intel smartphone, the Lava Xolo X900. Ever since, the Xolo X900, Lava has managed to get a lot of attention. Earlier in the year it even launched the first smartphone based on Intel's Lexington chip, the Xolo X500 and today the folks at Fone Arena have published a hands-on of the Xolo A1000, which becomes the company's first 5-inch Android smartphone. Apparently they managed to get their hands on a prototype in the capital.
According to the post, the A1000 flaunts a slim form-factor of 8.8mm and is superior to most 5-inch phablets in terms of industrial design. Unlike the X900 it is based on a dual-core ARM chipset. It also has a 2,100-mAh battery and it will run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
I don't know why the ARMH fanbois post here on the INTC board if ARMH is so great,you sound a bit on the insecure side to me. ARMH is a flyspeck that INTC is going to swat IMO.
That's cute how you say I'm on ignore but you read EVERY WORD I type. Why don't you address how the newest XOLO has ARM inside? ARM is dying yet going into new phones??!!! Stay in your fantasy world. You might be dangerous to society if you leave it.

Honey Whole Wheat Rolls RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 10 6
Most of the farmers in our area grow wheat, so this recipe definitely represents my region. I bake these rolls often, especially when I'm making soup or stew.
- 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- Additional melted butter
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Stir in the butter, honey, egg, whole wheat flour, oats, salt and 1 cup of all-purpose flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down. Shape into 15 rolls. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
- Bake at 375° for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with butter. Yield: 15 rolls.

TC TO ROBERT BROWNING ; 13 February 1845; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18450213-TC-RB-01; CL 19: 30-31
Chelsea, 13 feby 1845 (Night)
Dear Browning,
I find I must still trouble you with that unfortunate Field a little. His Note,1 of no great significance, is full of obscurities; has no address, and one or two other dubieties.
I send you his Copy, and mine taken from his, which still does not make very indisputable sense; I wish you would contrast it with the original, especially in the places which I have marked with an interrogation in pencil.
'New Hall' I suppose to be New Hall in Essex, which I have some obscure remembrance of, otherwise, in reference to Cromwell:2 of course it would be of no use questioning Field on the subject; but I will have a trial made in the County Histories of Essex. 'Wallop' may be a money-scrivener; or a man that has got land to sell, which Richard is to buy with the £18,000.3 'Waterhouse' is evidently the man of business.4 'Burleigh' is an Estate of Oliver's not heritably settled on Richard; but whether the big Burleigh House near Stamford (once stormed by Oliver in the early part of his career), or which of the other three or four Burleys, is a question hitherto.5
Pray give me your best guess, and the light of your own eyes and mind. Any day; no haste. And above all, thank Field for me, and say (if you can politely) I do not need the 'view of Newhall,' nor the viewer of it henceforth!— Yours ever truly
T. Carlyle

A book of photos, a few thoughts, but mostly photos. A world of majesty or of the miniscule. Mountains, the Ocean, Lakes, Rivers, the Sky, Buildings, Cities, Towns, Woods, Light, Darkness, People, Animals, Shape, Shadow, Form, Plants, Flowers, and more... The photos are pretty evenly split between Color or Black and White. Just a view of the world as it comes to me.

Slotted Headstock OO size Guitar with a 24.9 inch scale! One of the nicest custom pieces we've seen from Santa Cruz in a while!
This is an absolutely staggering guitar. We had Eric Skye in this past summer for Richard Hoover's workshop, and based on the intricacy of his playing I was very eager to see how Richard went about crafting a flat-top that could handle that kind of complexity and nuance...
The departmental consensus is that this guitar can handle anything.
This is the guitar player's guitar player's guitar player's guitar.
What you've got is a dense piece of Adirondack that's still bursting with overtones
A dense, beautiful cut of cocobolo that offers lushness, warmth, and a hint of natural reverb
A 12-fret configuration for smoothness and roundness of tone
And a 24.9 inch scale for easy playing.
If you demand a lot out of your instrument. If you believe nothing is technically impossible on your instrument. If you've got specific sounds in your head that require a very sophisticated mechanism of expression.
The 00~Skye will not disappoint. It will inspire you to try things on an acoustic guitar you never thought you could achieve. With a 00~Skye, you will succeed.
As with almost all Santa Cruz guitars, this 00-Skye model hold a vocal-like mid-range quality to it's tone. I've never heard anything like it! It's an absolute pleasure to cruise around the fingerboard on this signature model. If you've ever seen or heard Eric Skye, you know what this instrument is capable of! It's scary good!
Portland based jazz guitarist Eric Skye was named by 20th Century Guitar Magazine as "one of the best rising stars of the American acoustic jazz scene." This hardworking instrumentalist has gained a loyal following both as a dramatic and expressive live performer and an in-demand acoustic guitar instructor both in Oregon and in the online music community. He has been featured in magazines such as Acoustic Guitar, Guitar Player, Jazziz and Jazz Improv, and his music can be heard on NPR. To match his distinct personality and playing style, Eric and Richard collectively dreamed up a gorgeous Cocobolo OO with an Adirondack top, unique 24.9 inch scale length for ease of playability, slightly deeper body for added bass and volume, hot hide glue with Adirondack Spruce, scalloped bracing and a distinctive herringbone purfling and ivoroid rosette. This instrument is designed for the excruciatingly accurate and sophisticated techniques of the most demanding jazz fingerstylist.

Every was beautiful: house, service, neighborhood, environs, region - all was the best, but unfortunately the one thing disturbed our stay.
Very unpleasent strong smell of animal (cat, dog?) in living room.
It was really unpleasant.
We really enjoyed our stay in Grau Village. The apartment was well equipped and nicely situated close to the sea. Thank You! The only disadvantage was that we did not have any Wifi.
Very basic studio with sofa bed. Fittings outdated and slightly broken. Would spend a little more next time for something a lot better.
We stayed for 6 days at the apartment. Good spot with nearby metro for different places. Host was on time and welcoming. The air conditioning was undersize for the hot weather and the master bedroom bed needs an upgrade. Apart from that, our stay was nice and the neighbourhood is nice and calm.
We were there in may, and we liked it there. Not too crowded. The house and garden were nice. Inside a spartan furniture, but functional
A great place to stay in the summer.
Very friendly and nice host.
We had a great time at the Apartment, which was almost direktly at the Moldau. The Hosts were great and there was nothing bad about the Stay. The neighbourhood is quiet but still in walking distance to the center.
We will definetly come back :)
We spent a really good time in this flat, everything is close, beach, shops, bar..
A perfect accommodation in central Budapest on the pedestrian street with a small balcony .
Clean and nice with a bath and all conceivable needed during a stay.

That cup of java may pack more punch than you think. Besides acting as a pick-me-up, a recent study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry suggests that it may help in warding off optic disorders such as retinal degeneration.
Coffee contains the antioxidant chlorogenic acid (or CLA), which works to inhibit the production of free radicals that damage tissue and lead to vision loss. In the study, mice were exposed to nitric oxide which generated oxidative stress and in turn, free radicals which lead to retinal degeneration. The mice in the study that were pre-treated with chlorogenic acid showed no signs of degenerative damage.
More studies are necessary to determine CLA's effectiveness in humans, but work is underway to develop a coffee specifically aimed at retinal health, as well as production of an eye drop for direct application.

The pilot episode of "Resurrection" which aired on March 9 on ABC has already gathered a following of fans that can't wait to see future episodes. Reactions by Twitter users range from those declaring they are already addicted to the show to those who find it intriguing.
"#Resurrection is already my favorite TV show. First show worth watching in a long time. Loved the first episode!" says one fan in a tweet.
The premiere opened with a young boy waking in a rice field in China where he begins to wander in the small village. While he looks dazed, his collapse comes as surprise to those around him. When emergency personnel swoop in, they soon discover the young man does not speak and has not identification other than the name Jacob written in the collar of his Mansfield Panthers jersey.
When immigration agent J. Martin Bellamy (Omar Epps) is tasked with taking the child to protective services, he takes a special interest in the young man. When 8-year-old Jacob spells out the name of his home town of Arcadia, MO, agent Bellamy feels compelled to take him home.
Upon arrival, Agent Bellamy encounters the aging parents of Jacob. The only problem is that their Jacob drowned 32 years ago in the nearby river. We soon learn that the young man who claims to be Jacob remembers events of his life 32 years ago and recognizes his parents.
DNA testing reveals that Jacob is their biological son.
Jacob begins to reveal unknown facts about the drowning that suddenly begin to make sense to family members.
Where Jacob has been for 32 years is unknown, but by the end of the episode we learn that he is not the only one who is returning from the dead. A friend's father returns at the end of the show.
Although there are no indications yet as to where they have been, it should be noted that Jacob wears a red jersey throughout the entire show, even when admitted to the hospital after a seizure and in his memories of the original drowning.
When Elaine's father returns he too wears a red cap throughout the show until it finally revealed that he has returned from the dead.
Whether the use of red is significant of simply used to lead the viewer astray is unclear.
Tune into ABC Sunday nights at 9/8 central to find out more about Jacob and his mysterious return on "Resurrection"

If you're a small business professional, you know there just aren't enough
hours in the day to accomplish everything - sales work, production work,
accounting, and running your safety program. Does it take a lot of time
to set up a safety program? How about two lunch hours! Oregon OSHA will
offer a no-cost simple safety and health program during two "brown
bag" lunch workshops in October.
The Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Division (Oregon OSHA) designed
the Safety for Small Business' program to help small business owners
start implementing safety and health programs in their workplaces. The
program consists of two one-hour "brown bag" workshops. Participants
bring their own lunches and Oregon OSHA provides workshop materials for
participants. The workshop is free.
The Safety for Small Business workshop is presented in two phases. Attendance
is required at the first meeting to participate in the Phase Two meeting
two weeks later. Participants will learn how to integrate a safety and
health program into their business plan, receive industry-specific resource
materials, and be introduced to the program's ten short duration safety
and health training modules.
Medford: October 3, 2002 - Noon to 1:00pm at the Rogue Valley Mall,
Education Resource Center Room One
(Phase Two class on October 17 from Noon to 1:00pm)
Oregon OSHA offers a variety of conferences, training, educational resources
and consultation services to help Oregon employers create safer workplaces
and reduce the number of injuries which occur at work. Additional information
and resources are available on Oregon OSHA's website, www.orosha.org

Bon Marche Food MarketPosted by Linda under Life in Paris
No Comments
There is an incredible and huge amount of gourmet food for sale at Bon Marche. Here are just two photos of what I saw.
They used to have a display of spices in little mounds but now you find spices in these little containers.
And look at this: pasta in the shape of Monuments around Paris, such as the Arch de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower. Who thinks of these things?
