Tom Rowlands (Thomas Owen Mostyn Rowlands, 11 January 1971, Kingston-Upon-Thames, London, England) and Ed Simons (b. Edmund John Simons, 1970, Herne Hill, London, England) met while studying medieval history at Manchester Polytechnic in the late 80s. Rowlands became a member of the Balearic group Ariel, which put out a number of releases on Deconstruction Records. At the same time the pair found a common interest in acid house, techno and hip-hop and began DJing at house parties, calling themselves the Dust Brothers after the west coast hip-hop producers. They subsequently played at a club called Naked Under Leather and began writing their own material to use. One track, Song To The Siren, was picked up by Junior Boys Own Records and released early in 1993.

It was so great to have our groceries at the hotel when we arrived. however, Delivery was 5 hours early which would have been no problem had they remembered to put the Ubcrustables in the hotel freezer. If buying for a Disney Hotel, remember the refrigerators are very small, we had trouble fitting the large creamer we bought. But it did fit on door.
Garden grocer was very easy to use and service we exceptional. Items were delivered right on schedule with both a text and email confirming delivery to bell service. Will definitely be using the service again next Disney trip !!!!

Video: Ben Stiller Promotes Charity Using Naked Jennifer Aniston
Ben Stiller is using Jennifer Aniston's fame to promote his new foundation. In a new and ticklish video he made to attract more attention to The Stiller Foundation, the "Little Fockers" star reveals that he has found the best name for the charity and it puts together his "Along Came Polly" co-star and nudity.
The one-minute clip is kicked off in serious tone with the 45-year-old explaining what his foundation is all about. Giving a touch of light entertainment, he continues to share while building schools in the area affected by poverty around the world is challenging, determining a name for the charity itself provides more challenges.
After pitching a number of creative names, such as "The Ben Cross", "No Child Left Ben-hind" and "Touched by a Ben-Gel", Ben shares that he settled on The Jennifer Aniston Foundation. While Jennifer herself is completely clueless about it, he urges viewers to check out SeeJenniferAnistonNakedFoundation.com.
In the official site of The Stiller Foundation, Ben opened up, "I never have felt comfortable having a foundation named after me. Originally I asked if we could call it the LeBron James Foundation, or the Brad Pitt Foundation, since I thought that would get a lot more people to donate money."
"I was told I could get sued if I did that. So I went with the Stiller Foundation, since the point is to try to get as much or as little attention for this cause as my name could muster," he continued. On what his charity aims for, he explained, "The Stiller Foundation is working to build more schools, to give more children the chance to realize their potential."

In this work, a new two-dimensional optics design method is proposed that enables the coupling of three ray sets with two lens surfaces. The method is especially important for optical systems designed for wide field of view and with clearly separated optical surfaces. Fermat's principle is used to deduce a set of functional differential equations fully describing the entire optical system. The presented general analytic solution makes it possible to calculate the lens profiles. Ray tracing results for calculated 15th order Taylor polynomials describing the lens profiles demonstrate excellent imaging performance and the versatility of this new analytic design method.
1. Introduction
In geometrical optics, the modern formulation of Fermat's principle states that rays of light traverse the path of stationary optical length1]. However, its mathematical complexity could give rise to the impression that it is impractical to be used for optics design. In fact, conventional optics design is based on minimizing a chosen merit function which quantifies the system's performance for a defined sets of rays. In case of imaging applications, this can be merit functions such as the sum of the squares of certain aberrations or the RMS blur spot at the image plane [2]. In case of nonimaging optics, different merit functions such as the contrast ratio at a receiver plane or the optical collection efficiency could be chosen.
For many optical design problems, perfect solutions normally do not exist. Therefore, the design strategy begins with a parameterized description of the (refractive or reflective) optical surfaces. By using multi-parametric optimization (a common tool of any optical design software), these optimization algorithms normally start from an initial set of parameters and end with a final optimized set of parameters that minimizes a defined merit function. Since this is often a non-convex optimization problem, it cannot be guaranteed that these algorithms find the global minimum.
In contrast, direct optics design methods do not necessarily follow this design strategy. Usually, a key objective is to find a set of unrestricted free-form surfaces designed to have specific predefined characteristics. Where unrestricted means that the optical surfaces can have any shape to fulfill all imposed requirements. Such an approach can help to reduce the needed number of optical elements to a minimum or offer a way to design very compact optical systems. A basic example of such a design task is to focus light coming from a point in object space onto a point in the image space which can be achieved by using a Cartesian oval [3]. In order to focus light coming from an additional object point, one surface is no longer sufficient, two surfaces are needed. In general, an optical system consisting of N optical surfaces can couple N sets of rays for which specific conditions are imposed.
In case of optical systems designed for wide field of view and with at least one surface far from the aperture stop, it will be shown in this paper that it is possible to couple more than two ray sets with only two lens surfaces. However, this can only be achieved if different ray sets use different portions of the lens surfaces. Optical systems, where different incident directions use different portions of lens' surfaces, are widely known. Field-flattener lenses are used in binocular designs and in astronomic telescopes to improve edge sharpness and lower distortion. Aperture stops in imaging systems often target the same objective. Based on a very basic example of a single thick lens, the Simultaneous Multiple Surfaces (SMS) design method will serve as a starting point in Sec. 2. It will help to provide a better understanding of the practical implications on the design process of an increased lens thickness and a wider field of view. This foundation will lead to an irreducible design representation in Sec. 3, based on the local coupling of two ray sets with two surface parts to achieve global coupling of three ray sets with two smooth surfaces. A first implemented numerical algorithm demonstrates the existence of solutions and it is used to introduce and establish the concept of convergence points which were first introduced to design aspheric V-groove reflectors [4]. Fermat's principle is then used to deduce a system of functional differential equations in Sec. 4, fully describing the lens' profiles. The transformation of these functional differential equations into an algebraic linear system of equations allows the successive calculation of the Taylor series coefficients up to an arbitrary order. Ray tracing analysis in Sec. 5 is then used to demonstrate the versatility of this analytic design approach by explicitly evaluating Taylor polynomials of 15th order.
2. Initial degrees of freedom for SMS2D designs
The Simultaneous Multiple Surfaces (SMS) method has proven to be very versatile in various applications. SMS surfaces are piecewise curves made of several portions of generalized Cartesian ovals that map initial ray sets to final ray sets. It involves the simultaneous calculation of N optical surfaces using N one-parameter ray sets for which specific conditions connect the initial with the final ray sets [3]. A particular formulation of the SMS2D method for imaging systems comprises perfect imaging of N ray sets at the correspondent N image points. The SMS2D method offers the flexibility to choose the ray sets and their associated image points [5]. SMS optics are calculated by applying a constant optical path length for each coupled ray set. For two design angles of opposite sign the overall symmetry implies an identical optical path length for both ray sets. The optical path length can be determined by choosing one initial point on each lens profile. Figure 1(a)–(c) show different SMS2D designs for θ = ±5° design angle and increasing lens thicknesses from left to right. Similarly, Fig. 1(d)–(f) shows designs with increasing lens thicknesses for θ = ±10° design angle.
Fig. 1
The bold light rays highlight the initial points used to determine the optical path length. Additional rays alternately construct the final lens profiles by applying the constant optical path length condition. This design process only provides a set of discrete points and correspondent normal vectors. An SMS skinning process can finally be used to fill the gaps between the separated points, fully defining both optical surfaces. A segment can be interpolated between the two symmetric adjacent points of the bottom surface, as indicated as solid lens profile in Fig. 1. As a boundary condition, the segment has to match point coordinates and normal vectors at the initial points, which requires at least a 2nd order polynomial function. However, in principle, any analytical function satisfying this boundary condition can be applied - which correspondents to an infinite parameter space for the initial segment problem. For small design angles and moderate lens thicknesses, the initial segment represents only a small fraction of the entire lens profiles. However, with increasing design angles and/or distances between the optical surfaces the relative importance of the initial segment increases as well. In extreme cases, the initial segment can completely define the full lens profiles as shown in Fig. 1(f). A selected 2nd order polynomial segment may guarantee coupling of two ray sets with chosen design angles of opposite sign, but it does not make any further use of the full potential offered by an unrestricted initial segment satisfying the boundary condition. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to find ways to construct initial segments which ensure maximum benefit from these infinite degrees of freedom.
3. Optimum utilization of the initial segment
It is shown in this section that the degrees of freedom of the initial segment can be used to couple an additional on-axis ray set. Consider the curve segments S1 and Ŝ2 of the two surfaces shown in Fig. 2(a). They are designed to couple a tilted parallel ray set onto a point. Because of the symmetry applied with respect to the optical axis of the lens, the lens segments Ŝ1 and S2 will couple the parallel ray set with opposite sign. That means that only one ray set is actually coupled using these two surface segments. This offers the opportunity to couple an additional ray set. One of these two identical off-axis ray sets is now replaced in Fig. 2(b) by an on-axis ray set. The constant optical path length condition can then be used to calculate the final lens portion on the second lens profile by tracing off-axis rays through Ŝ1, which is illustrated in Fig. 2(c). Finally, the full set of rays on the completed lens is shown in Fig. 2(d) - coupling three ray sets with two lens profiles.
Fig. 2
A simple optimization approach is used to establish the concept of convergence points and find them. These convergence points form the basis for the analytical solution given in Section 4. The implemented design algorithm starts with a central on-axis ray along the optical axis. By choosing points P1, P2 and R1 the central lens thickness and the related optical path length are determined. Both normal vectors in P1 and P2 point in the direction of the optical axis due to the overall lens' symmetry. This initial step is shown in Fig. 3(a). In the next step in Fig. 3(b), the focus position R2 of the off-axis ray set is chosen. A ray coming from R2 is refracted at P2. A chosen optical path length is then used to determine the edge P3 on the first lens surface. At this point, all necessary information is provided - the focus positions and optical path lengths for on- and off-axis ray sets.
Fig. 3
Figure 3(c) consists of two steps. First P3 and its correspondent normal vector are mirrored along the optical axis resulting in Q3 and its associated normal vector. An on-axis ray is refracted at Q3, P4 is calculated using the constant optical path length condition. The correspondent normal vector is calculated to refract the ray towards the focus position R1. A ray coming from R2 is refracted at P4, P5 is calculated using the constant optical path length condition, as shown in Fig. 3(d). Figure 3(e) shows the next step in analogy to (c). These two steps in (c) and (d) are now alternately repeated until a stop criterion is reached.
For chosen initial values, steps (c) and (d) typically fail to close the lens profiles. The initial parameters, namely P1, P2, P3, R1 and R2 are varied using unconstrained nonlinear optimization in MATLAB until the algorithm converges and results in the final point clouds with correspondent ray paths, which are shown in Fig. 3(f). An additional zoomed in view of one convergence point is shown to better see this behavior. The repeated design steps (c) and (d) successively construct the lens profiles from center and edge simultaneously until they asymptotically close the remaining gaps in the profiles. The optimization procedure is used to minimize the remaining gap sizes. As a consequence, in the limiting case of infinitesimal profile gaps, the design process results in two convergence points taking the axial symmetry on the first lens profile into account. The convergence points are thus characterized by the special case that on- and off-axis rays passing through the lens share identical points and normal vectors on each surface.
4. Analytic solution of initial segments starting from convergence points
The numerical algorithm introduced in the previous subsection provides already a comprehensive solution to the stated initial segment problem. However, multi-parametric optimization is still needed which has several disadvantages. The guess of an initial parameter set may decide whether the algorithm will converge or not, furthermore the optimization process can be fairly time consuming, to name just two.
The reverse case forms the starting point for all further considerations: determine the convergence points first and derive the full lens profiles from these initial convergence points for one on-axis and one off-axis ray set. All necessary initial values are defined as shown in Fig. 4(a).
Fig. 4
The point coordinates (x0, z0) of the convergence point on the first lens profile can be freely chosen without loss of generality. The slope m0 at the convergence point represents a first variable. The intersection of the refracted on-axis ray through (x0, z0) and the refracted off-axis ray through the mirrored convergence point (−x0, z0) determines the coordinates (x1, z1) of the convergence point on the 2nd lens profile. The slope m1 at this second convergence point represents a second variable. The intersection of the refracted on-axis ray through (x1, z1) and the optical axis determines the first focus position d. Finally, the refracted off-axis ray and the known lateral detector position determine the x-coordinate r of the second focus position. This formulation provides a compact representation of all initial values depending upon the two variables m0 and m1 only. In addition, it provides the permissible range of values for these two variables for which the convergence point construction is possible. For example, a given value m0 limits the possible range of values of m1 for which an on-axis ray can be refracted towards the optical axis.
Next, two analytic functions f(x) and g(x) are introduced to describe the two lens profiles. To analytically describe the optical paths of rays passing through the lens it is necessary to introduce two additional mapping functions s(x) and u(x). Figure 4(b) shows an on-axis ray passing through an arbitrary point p⃗ = (x, f(x)) on the first lens profile which is then refracted in (s(x),g(s(x))) towards the focal point (0,d). The auxiliary function s(x) thus defines the mapping in x-coordinate. Similarly, function u(x) defines the mapping in x-coordinate for off-axis rays through an arbitrary point on the first, and through (u(x),g(u(x))) on the second lens profile, as shown in Fig. 4(c). All optical path lengths can then be expressed in sections using vector geometry as
Fermat's principle states that the optical path length between two fixed points is an extremum along a light ray. Consider a fixed point on the on-axis wave front defined by w⃗0 and n⃗0, and the fixed point (s(x), f(s(x)) on the second lens profile: an on-axis ray coming from the wave front and passing through (s(x), f(s(x)) must be such that the combined optical path length d1 + d2 is an extremum. With point (s(x), f(s(x)) kept fixed, the only remaining variable to achieve an extremum for D1 = d1 + d2 is the point (x, f(x)) on the upper lens profile. Fermat's principle thus implies thatFig. 4 is thus fully described by four functional differential equations (Eqs. (4)–(7)) for four unknown functions f(x), g(x), s(x) and u(x). The fundamental analysis of a similar system of functional differential equations has been discussed [6–10]. The results on existence, uniqueness and analyticity were all based on fixed point theorems in functional analysis. These arguments break down when there are off-axis foci. However, the results presented in this work will provide strong evidence that the solutions for off-axis foci are analytic and smooth as well.
Suppose that (f,g,s,u) is an analytic and smooth solution to the functional differential equations (4)–(7), Taylor's theorem implies that the functions must be infinitely differentiable and have a power-series representation. Thus the four functions can be given by power-seriesFig. 4(a) then satisfy the conditional equations Di = 0 for i = 1..4 and provide general solutions for the initial Taylor coefficients f0, f1, g0, g1, s0 and u0 depending upon variables m0 and m1. In ascending order it is now possible to calculate (n+1)th order Taylor series coefficients in f(x) and g(x) and nth order in s(x) and u(x) by solving equations
- For n = 1, the set of Eq. (11) results in nonlinear algebraic equations for Taylor series coefficients f2, g2, s1 and u1. These equations have two general solutions, where one solution can be discarded as non-physical. The remaining unique solution can be expressed as functions of the initial, already known Taylor coefficients for n = 0.
- For n > 1, the set of Eq. (11) results in linear algebraic equations for particular Taylor series coefficients. By sorting and combining terms, the equations (11) can be transformed and expressed as a compact matrix equation Eq. (12) are mathematical expressions only dependent on previous Taylor series coefficients fi, gi, si−1 and ui−1 for i = 0..n. Finally, the vector elements of b⃗(n) can be calculated for each n = 2,3,4,.. (in this order) from Eq. (11). For known matrix M and vectors b⃗(2).. b⃗(n), the Taylor series coefficients fn+1, gn+1, sn and un can then be calculated by solving the linear system of Eq. (12).
5. Ray tracing results for calculated 15th order Taylor polynomials
In a first step, the general solutions for Taylor polynomial coefficients for n = 0,1 are calculated which also determines the matrix M of Eq. (12). The general solution of the matrix equation Mx⃗ =b⃗ is then calculated to obtain the general solution vector x⃗. The vector elements of b⃗(n) are calculated within a loop from n = 2 up to n = 14. It is possible to calculate even higher orders. However, the error made in this approximation is already extremely small.
All calculated mathematical expressions, sorted in the right order, are then exported as C++ compatible code and embedded in a MATLAB-compatible mex file library. Once compiled, this library returns the Taylor polynomial coefficients for the lens profiles f(x) and g(x) up to 15th order, and the mapping functions s(x) and u(x) up to 14th order as output arguments. The off-axis design angle θ, the refractive index n2 and the derivatives at the convergence points m1 and m2 are passed as input arguments.
By fixing the design angle and refractive index (here: θ = 12°, n2 = 1.5), the only remaining free parameters to vary are m0 and m1. Furthermore, the intended real focus of the lens suggest to choose a negative value for m0. The sign of m1 then determines the global lens shape - which can be either meniscus like (negative m1) or biconvex (positive m1). Local smooth and analytic solutions exist for any values within the permissible range of values for these two variables. However, the lens' smoothness and symmetry additionally requires f′(0) = g′(0) = 0 at the optical axis. This boundary condition introduces an additional correlation between m0 and m1, meaning that for a specific value m1 the correspondent value m0 can be obtained by making sure f′(0) = g′(0) = 0 is fulfilled. Even though it is not possible to deduce this correlation m1(m0) as a closed form solution, the numerical calculation of roots of f′(0) and g′(0) is very accurate and fast.
A ray tracing animation video ( Media 1) helps to better illustrate the correlation between m0 and m1. For m1 ranging from −0.065 to 0.065 the correspondent m0, satisfying the boundary condition, is directly calculated each time. Figure 5 shows two single-frame excerpts from this ray tracing animation video for m1 = −0.065 which is equivalent to a meniscus lens (a), and m1 = 0.065 which is equivalent to a biconvex lens (b). The two arrows indicate the directions of the normal vectors at the convergence points.
Fig. 5
The ray tracing simulations for this animation video (240 frames) are done using the MATLAB-based ray tracer OPS (by courtesy of Prof. Dr. Udo Rohlfing, Hochschule Darmstadt, Germany). The ray tracer is only used for visualization purposes - the entire optics design is based on the derived general analytical solution. In addition, the two mapping functions s(x) and u(x) are used to directly calculate the semi-diameters of the lens profiles. For example, solving equation u(r1) = 0 provides the semi-diameter r1 of the upper lens profile. Lens specific parameters such as the effective focal length and magnification can be directly calculated for each correspondent m0 and m1.
Some fundamental aspects of this new analytic design method deserve to be particularly emphasized at the end of this section. The fixed parameters θ = 12° and n2 = 1.5 have been selected arbitrarily to provide clear evidence that it is possible to calculate analytical high order Taylor polynomials for various values m0 and m1. However, this calculated general solution provides much more. It solves the stated initial segment problem for any given (physically meaningful) initial parameter set (θ,m0, m1, n2). This also means that it could be used in a hybrid technique: first calculate a highly accurate initial segment and finish the overall lens design using the SMS2D design method. This particular convergence point design was chosen to demonstrate the possibility of coupling an additional on-axis ray set, meaning that three ray sets can be coupled with two surfaces. In addition, the imposed axial symmetry of the lens is not explicitly needed by this design method. Other wave fronts besides plane and spherical wave fronts could be coupled as well. A further important step will be a solution and implementation of this new method in three dimensions and for more than two surfaces. This would allow calculating free-form optics targeting applications with wide and even asymmetric field of view.
6. Conclusion
Within the scope of this work, it has been shown that it is possible to couple three ray sets with two refractive surfaces forming a lens of minimum thickness. The established convergence point formalism provided the basis for an analytical description of the entire lens using Fermat's principle. The derived set of functional differential equations led to algebraic systems of equations which have been solved up to an arbitrary order of all Taylor series coefficients needed to describe the lens profiles. Exemplary ray tracing results for analytic lens profiles given as Taylor polynomials of 15th order demonstrated the capabilities and versatility of this new analytic optics design method. Future work will focus on its non-rotational symmetric three-dimensional generalization and target applications where this new design method can help to further increase the overall optical system's performance.

SPARSE: A Symptom-based Antipattern Retrieval Knowledge-based System Using Semantic Web Technologies
- Antipattern detection
User Ratings
User Reviews
Antipatterns provide information on commonly occurring solutions to problems that generate negative consequences. The number of software project management antipatterns that appears in the literature and the Web increases to the extent that makes using antipatterns problematic. Furthermore, antipatterns are usually inter-related and rarely appear in isolation. As a result, detecting which antipatterns exist in a software project is a challenging task which requires expert knowledge. SPARSE, is an OWL ontology based knowledge-based system that aims to assist software project managers in the antipattern detection process. The antipattern ontology documents antipatterns and how they are related with other antipatterns through their causes, symptoms and consequences. The semantic relationships that derive from the antipattern definitions are determined using the Pellet DL reasoner and they are transformed into the COOL language of the CLIPS production rule engine. The purpose of this transformation is to create a compact representation of the antipattern knowledge, enabling a set of object-oriented CLIPS production rules to run and retrieve antipatterns relevant to some initial symptoms. To use SPARSE, simply import the antipattern ontology (.owl file), select some symptoms and execute the system to retrieve the antipatterns relevant to the selected symptoms. SPARSE can also provide the user with further explanations on the reasons why a specific antipattern has been detected and how it is related with other detected antipatterns semantically. The example ontology .owl file that is included contains an example dataset of 31 software project management antipatterns that appear on the Web.

Sociocontextual Variables that Affect Spousal Perception of Social Support
Abstract:The aim in this study was to determine the effect of certain sociocontextual variables on the level of perceived spousal support. Family members are the most significant source of social support for an individual throughout his or her life. Spouses' mutual support in a marital relationship, however, seems to be particularly important compared to other sources of social support. We interviewed 579 randomly selected married individuals in Ankara, Turkey. They responded to the Spousal Support Scale and completed the personal information form that included individual and family data. Results showed a significant relationship between the level of perceived spousal support and a variety of sociocontextual factors such as number of children, length of marriage, form of marriage, and income level. Theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.

Bebe Le Strange Lyrics
Artist: Heart
Album: Greatest Hits
It's got to be you reading my letter
Not your hired hand
I don't know how to say it no better
I love you and the band
Never heard rockin' like you could
Howling like you can
It gets me thinking of Johnny B. Goode
But you know you ain't no man
When I heard you play I knew your
name should be changed
We're all dog panicked and you are to blame
Everybody ought to call you
bebe le strange
You look so insane
We gave you a name
bebe le strange
I wish I knew what you're really like
A touch so shy and fine
But the way you move with that guitar
Just gives me other signs
Here's my number give me a sign
Call me back if this gets through
bebe, bebe, bebe, bebe
I'd never say no to you
When I heard your song I knew your
name should be changed
Everybody ought to call you
bebe le strange
Under my skin you've got my mind
You're so insane
bebe's so strange

Objectives: The increasing prevalence of latex allergy among healthcare workers is a large socio-economical problem for the society and affected individuals. The objective of this study was to describe and evaluate a nationwide, interdisciplinary campaign by the institution for the German workers' compensation scheme for non-public healthcare providers that targeted the reduction of exposure to powdered high-protein latex gloves. Methods: The effectiveness of the prevention programme is described and evaluated with a before-and-after design comparing data on compensation claims for latex-related skin and airway diseases of the German statutory compensation scheme for work-related diseases in non-public health services. A survey on change in glove use was conducted after the programme. Results: The main feature of the campaign among healthcare workers (budget €340,000) was to increase awareness by means of educational components on the aetiology of latex hypersensitivity for healthcare workers and their providers, and professional trainers. The number of reported compensation claims for latex-induced skin diseases increased from a pre-measure of 664 in 1996 to 884 during the programme in 1998 and decreased after the programme (post-measure n=567 in 1999 and n=204 in 2002). Doctors' assistants in practices and nurses/nurse assistants/midwives filed most claims. Similar decreases were observed for confirmed claims and latex-related respiratory diseases, while two other prevalent occupational diseases in healthcare workers (low-back disorders, infections) increased during this time period. The survey demonstrated a considerable concurrent drop in the use of powdered latex gloves (hospitals 76% vs 37% for unsterile gloves and 86% vs 62% for sterile gloves). Conclusions: The campaign against latex allergy in connection with concurrent corresponding recommendations, activities of State authorities for worker protection, and regulations, is an example for the successful incorporation of research results into preventive measures that directly affect the frequency of a work-related disease. This effective programme can be regarded as a model for the reduction of other occupational diseases such as bakers' or isocyanate asthma.

Amazon: International Kindle owners won't have to pay roaming charges
Amazon has confirmed to Pocket-lint that International customers won't have to pay for roaming charges on the new Kindle International edition.
"No they won't", a spokesman for the company from the UK office told Pocket-lint after we asked if the company could confirm whether or not UK customers will have to pay the $1.99 download charge, before adding "Wireless delivery is included in the price of the book for international customers so there are no additional charges".
The confusion has arisen over how UK customers and those in other countries will be able to access books over the 3G connection Amazon is promising, as Amazon has confirmed that the Kindle will be roaming on the AT&T Global network.
However, UK users will still only be able to order the new Kindle via the US Amazon site and pay customs tax on the purchase.
At the moment the Kindle will be sold on an import basis to customers in the UK from Amazon.com. The price for the device is $279, and when import fees and shipping is added the total comes to $344.98, which works out at £216.85 at today's rates.

More owners are all work, no play
Almost six out of 10 small-business owners are working more hours this year than they did last year, according to a survey released today by Manta, an online community for small businesses.
In fact, almost half are working so hard, they won't have time to take a vacation, according to the online survey of about 1,200 owners.
However, they don't plan to have employees step up so they can take time off: 70% do not plan to hire any new employees during the summer months, compared to 43% who had no hiring plans in 2011.
"The current economic conditions are putting a strain on all businesses, particularly small and mid-sized businesses, that often times need to do more with less," said Manta CEO Pamela Springer.
In separate research by the Corporate Executive Board, one-third of self-employed persons said they work more than 50 hours per week.
