MyHeritage and BillionGraves join forces to digitally preserve the world's cemeteries
We're excited to announce that MyHeritage has teamed up with BillionGraves to launch a global crowdsourcing initiative to digitally preserve the world's cemeteries.
Gravestones play a very important role in genealogy. They provide vital information such as the person's name, the names of close relatives and dates of birth and death. They often describe the deceased's character and personality, providing a glimpse into the person's life. However, billions of gravestones in thousands of cemeteries worldwide have never been documented nor has their information been made available online.
In addition, time is chipping away at the gravestones and many are becoming unreadable over the years. Age, and exposure to the elements, means that what is written on the stone eventually fades, making it harder, and sometimes impossible, to read them and know who has been buried there.
Today we have the necessary tools - it is up to our generation to preserve these headstones and store their valuable information online for the future.
BillionGraves is a one-of-a-kind application, available for both iOS and Android, which uses patent-pending technology to enable users to photograph and document gravestones. With the help of MyHeritage, the app will be available in 25 languages, and support Gregorian, Hebrew and Julian dates. It records the GPS locations of gravestones to make them easy to find and volunteers can easily see which areas of any cemetery remain undocumented, to maximize efficiency and avoid duplication. The gravestone photographs are then transcribed by volunteers on the BillionGraves website, resulting in searchable digital data.
In just two years, BillionGraves has already amassed millions of headstone records, uploaded by 70,000 volunteers.
Starting immediately, we'll be reaching out to the users of MyHeritage and encouraging them to join us in using BillionGraves to preserve and document gravestones worldwide - for future generations. The records will be available for free on BillionGraves' website, and MyHeritage's search engine for historical records, SuperSearch. Each record will contain photographs of the gravestone, GPS coordinates, and an index of corresponding information.
MyHeritage Record Matching technology will be unleashed on the new records and users will automatically receive notifications of any new cemetery records that match individuals in their family tree. Users can save new cemetery records and extract relevant information directly to their family tree, helping them discover vital details about relatives and find out more about their ancestors.
This global initiative is a great way for MyHeritage users to contribute to the future of family history research, and to help preserve their own family legacies, as well as the legacies of others. Through our partnership with BillionGraves, MyHeritage continues to add additional digitized global content, providing enormous value to millions of users.
We'll be posting more details soon about how you can participate in this global mission and help preserve the information today, for the generations to come.
The MyHeritage team
Search for your ancestors:
- I have been a Billiongraves contributor almost since the beginning of the project. Enhancements and upgrades requested by volunteers are listened to and the team at Billiongraves continues to make it easier and better to do our jobs. The one thing that has eluded or had been looked over is a way to link up with people locally to tackle a cemetery a lot quicker. I have already completed one colonial cemetery on my own, am 80% through another, and at about 60% through a town cemetery that has taken me two years to get as far as I am now. I am disabled and have a difficult time moving around and can not complete as much as I would like whereas I am working alone. There has to be a way to connect people in their local area to speed up the process of completing cemeteries especially here in Massachusetts as we have some of the oldest in the country and the stones are not faring too well.
- I live in Danville Va and have found several graves on private property with trees and weeds taking over.Have been researching Wolfe family.in WVa.Was born and grew up there A lot of my kin is buried in Baxter Cemetery i have several pictures of grave stones from there.Retired and will be happy to help.
- I was more than delighted to read the latest news on photographing the entire cemetery of Segula Cemetery in Petah Tikva, and digitize gravestones using the BillionGraves mobile application.
I do hope this project will include Jewish cemeteries in Germany as well, a country with the most restrictive rules to privacy (not that one can claim privacy in cemeteries!)
The BerlinWeissensee Jewish Cemetery is a prime example. I would love more on that particular location.
- Glad to see this ... I have been using findagrave for years and this would just add to research data ...
- I would love to contribute from my area.
- Can we use a camera for this adventure or must it be via an android phone or iphone app? The first cemetery I'll tackle is that in Carson City, NV.
- Sounds like a great project. I would be glad to contribute but don't have an I-Phone. But an IPad and IPod should work, right?
- Tried to register but it said my e-mail was already in use.
- I have a couple of photos of family gravestones. Were can I upload them?
- Nice idea and I wish I could contribute but my smart phone is BlackBerry, not Android or iPhone.
- Hi
I am in Western Australia and would be happy to contribute to this project. I have already found a gravestone of one of my husbands relatives in Australia through this myheritage service. We will be travelling around the country in a couple of years and would love to contribute once that happens. In the meantime I will endeavour to assist with any cemeteries we come across in our travels, although these will only be around Perth.
- I love this idea! I'm currently searching for relatives headstones but not having luck yet. I'd love to help :)
- I have an android tablet with GPS. Can I use that to document?
- Do you have to have a smart phone to participate? I have been documenting graves for about 2 years for Find-A-Grave but solely use a digital camera?
- Is an app for BlackBerry avalable to download ?
- I would like to be involved and do the grave yards in Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada and surrounding communities.
- would love to help, but i don't have an i phone, can i take with camera and down load them?
- I would like to contribute from my area
- Will the app work with a android? We don't have the so called "smart phones" and not about to get one.
We came across an old cemetery in Pe Ell, WA a few weeks ago and were planning to explore it, anyway. Can we send digital photos??
- I would be more than willing to assist in this important worthwhile project.
- I have the billiongraves app on my smart phone and plan on starting to photograph gravestones in the local graveyards as soon as the snow melts, but that will be awhile, since we have about 3 feet of snow on the ground at the moment with more on the way
- My Husband and I are working with others to log the cemetary which belongs to our Church. We use a camera and do not have a GPS on it which is a shame as we have already taken over 150 photo's of headstones. Are you thinking of using photo's in the future without the GPS? We are doing this because over the years the records have been lost or misplaced.
- Pls let me know how I can help. I would love to do the cemeteries in my area of Maine. I am in Waldoboro, Maine. Pls contact me.
- I would love to participate as well, but it's a little difficult for me since I'm disabled and not allowed to drive again...yet.
- I'd love to include at least two community graveyars with our rellies. I have neither android or iphone. I'll have photos in case they are ever needed, but I will document the information that I'm able to read. I'm looking forward to being able to find our family members in your exciting project.
- I would be happy to participate - I live in Melbourne, Victoria Australia & we have some of the largest cemeteries in Australia, right here in Melbourne. Fawkner Cemetery, Melbourne Cemetery, Springvale Cemetery. Only problem I can see is most of your details are American orientated, would there be much use for Australian gravestones?
- I would be happy to participate - Perth, Western Australia. wE have some pioneer cemeteries here. Hopefully you are interested in Australian headstones/gravestones. I have also photograph many in my travels during my genealogical fact finding travels.
- I am in Australia and have ancestors buried in the Lake View Cemetery, Cuyahoga County, Cleveland, Ohio, USA. Wondering if any volunteers living in the area could make a start on that cemetery? Message to Alec Mead. Billion Graves has made a start in Melbourne and is progressing through Cheltenham Pioneer Cemetery and Cheltenham Memorial Park. Go for it!!
- I live in South Africa and have found it vry difficult to trace my roots. I would be very happy to volunteer to help
- Hi I live in a Cemetery Gate house in Brentwood Essex England and would love to help
- Documenting the cemeteries in our town for the Magalang Heritage years ago made some people laugh at me. Thanks for the invitation to join.
- This is an exciting project that I could easily do with my new Android Smartphone. The only problem is I am based in London UK. Would this be of interest to you?
- Hi, I live in central California.I live close to a lot of gold rush cemeteries. Would love to help.I will use my smart phone and a camera. I have also worked with find a grave.I have android tablet and phone will look for apps.
- Our cemetery may wish to become involved. I will bring the subject up at our next meeting.
- This shows the positive power of the Internet: I have ancestors in UK-Scotland, Austria-Germany and the Ukraine (where little info exists on-line). It will be so exciting to SEE the fruits of concurrent labor in exchange for our work in North America...especially in smaller sites that may not have been documented before!!! We're in as soon as we can gather our technology and get rolling!!
- I believe some suggestions on how to better photograph 'hard to read' headstones would be appreciated. Time of day, angles, enhancements etc. would be appreciated.
Cellphone pictures are small and difficult to read in sunlight
To view photos taken at the end of the day, can sometimes be disappointing.
- I live in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada and would love to help. The Peter Robinson Settlers came around Peterborough in 1823 and 1825.
- This is a very huge undertaking in recording the past while the present is happening and somehow set in motion something that will be functioning in the furure. I am new to this but will contribute something.
- I live in Essex , and would be very willing to help , but i have only got a digital camera
- I have been researching ancestors graves myself and know how difficult it is sometimes to find them , so would very willing to help if i can
- Iwill take photos from graves in carbonear
- I would love to participate. I am in East London, South Africa and move around a lot. I have an Ipad. If there is an app that can be used, please can you advise.
- I live in Stafford County, VA and am interested in assisting with this project. Plan on communicating with Hartwood Presbyterian Church. Will need to secure access to appropriate phone.
- This concept is excellent, it will be of great assistance to to all those doing Genealogical research
- In Sydney Australia, Rookwood Cemetery is the largest in New South Wales. I also have photos of Tibooburra Cemetery. Far North Western country. Rookwood also has a Society that have tours every month. Would be happy to photograph some rural areas of Australia.
- Thank you for updating. From personal experience I can tell you that your project will succeed under the condition that the grave is readable. I went to my grandfather's grave in Berlin and after search found and renovated it.
- Very Good!!
- Wonderful project. I would love to contribute.
- Sounds like a great idea. Can a digital camera that records GPS with each photo work with your app?
ie: some of the Canon & Nikon models.
- Chi muore giace, chi vive si da' pace
- @esther
I have written in recent past both to my heritage and billion graves to know about the possibilities to match the database between photo and data.
it seems it's not possible yet.
I asked too to myheritage to give the possibility to use html language in the note field into the profile just to link the site of sepolture to google maps.
it seeems no possible too so I decided to put on the profile of my mother and brother the photos of the grave, but it's not the same.
I hope you know qhat I mean.
please to meet you esthero.
ciao, silvano.
- All of the graves loaded on my Heritage Site where captured on a digital camera. Can I still download the app if I don't have an Adroit phone.
- As a full time Rver, I frequently photograph grace memorials in battlefields so will do my part by uploading those I already have
And vow to continue where I am able to download photos with iPhone or iPad.

A club like Barcelona is not one to stay clear of transfer rumors when the windows open.
With so many great players at the club, there is never a shortage of stories that suggest a potential exit from the club because of how much depth and competition exists in Catalunya.
At the same time, fans and the media alike are constantly barraged with 'links' to top European players who could soon be wearing Blaugrana—not surprising since essentially every player in the world would love to do so.
With the winter transfer window getting closer and countless rumors floating around daily, focus is often needed to stay abreast of realistic moves that could be made.
This article looks at four of the latest rumors or updates to previous stories that have a legitimate and documented chance of happening.
There is a strong chance that none of these moves—or non-moves—happen, but there is enough buzz happening that they are worth mentioning and discussing.

Back in March, my sister started going to Zumba (BEWARE: Website has auto-play music) classes. Several weeks ago she invited me to go to one with her and I loved it. It was really fun and a great workout. She told me then that she wanted to find something different because it wasn't working for her anymore. I agreed to look around with her to see if there was something else we can do.
As I often lament, we live in a small town that's a good hour away from civilization. We have a Walmart and a Starbucks, but that's about it. So finding an exercise class close to home wasn't easy. Although I'd prefer to do Zumba - even if my sister wanted something new - the nearest class is 40 minutes away. Instead we decided to do Jazzercise, which is about 5 minutes away.
No brainer, right?
Except..well, there's kind of a stigma attached to Jazzercise. Or there is for me anyway. I expected to see cheesy dance moves and one-piece unitards with shiny nylons, leg warmers, sweat bands and high-tops. (reference video)
Not that I really care about the stigma, but I didn't think it would be a very good workout. I was wrong. It's an excellent workout. It has seriously been kicking my ass. I go three days a week, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. The first week I thought for sure I'd die at the Thursday class. Last week, my second week, was better, but I still got my ass kicked.
They start you off really hard..you go up quick and come down slowly. The first 5 or so songs are really upbeat and it's a lot of cardio. The next 5 or so songs are dedicated to working core muscles, including a few floor routines do a lot of ab/leg work. My muscles are always screaming by the end of the hour. This week we're doing three in a row since Monday is a holiday. I'm very concerned about making it through three classes back to back.
Besides Jazzercise, in my bid to beat the pants off Kay (and Casee and Scooper, who decided to join) by the end of March, I've also started doing a 1200 calorie-a-day diet. I did really great with it the first week and managed to lose just under 4lbs. Last week I stayed within my calorie range but ate a lot of bad calories (Del Taco and Doritos) and only dropped just over a pound. Still, I'm down almost 5 lbs now, and that's just in the first two weeks of the challenge. So really, I can't complain. Even with the cheesy image I get in my head every time I think about it.
Also? I'm totally winning this challenge.

Remember that package...
...the one I shipped to Rowena? Well guess what? It finally made it!
I took it back to the post office the week before Christmas and they said they'd send it out again at no charge, though they weren't able to offer an explanation as to why it hadn't arrived the first time (no such number my ass). She hadn't mentioned it and it slipped my mind but guess what? Last week she finally received it. Only a month later.
I might as well say it again: What The Fuck, Post Office?

It's That Time Again...
Kay and I have started another weight loss challenge. I can't remember if I blogged about it before (I'm too lazy to go look) but just before I got pregnant we signed up to do one together. That didn't work out so well for obvious reasons.
I started gaining weight before I got pregnant, then I gained more while I was pregnant and I haven't stopped gaining since I'm not pregnant anymore. It's become rather ridiculous. So when Kay asked if it was time to do another challenge I said, "Bring it!".
Now that the holidays are over I plan to get back into a regular routine, and I'm making exercise part of that. I'm also going to try to re-train myself to cook healthier. We always eat well-balanced meals, but butter and bacon seem to be major components of every meal. While that works sometimes, it isn't good for the every day.
Starting tomorrow we'll be doing a three month challenge, ending March 1, 2010. Just so you know..I plan to win. I'm bringing my A-game to this challenge, and I won't be going home the loser. Er..staying home the loser. Er..whatever.
The point is, I'm going to win. At the end of these three months I WILL have beaten Kay. Oh yes, I will.
I'm starting out with 17lbs. That's an average of about 6lbs a month, which seems pretty healthy. If I lose more than that, bonus. My total goal is about 23lbs, but I don't want to over do it to start.
I even created a ticker to help me out:
Wish me luck!

HONOLULU (AP) - The University of Hawaii says it's helping 35 of its students currently studying in Japan to follow the latest travel advisory from the U.S. State Department urging Americans to consider leaving the country.
The university said Thursday it is communicating with the students and helping them abide by the warning. Twenty-seven of the students are from the Manoa campus while eight are enrolled at Hilo.
None is near the area most seriously affected by last week's earthquake and tsunamis and damaged nuclear reactors. The school says they have no indication any UH student is in any immediate danger.
The travel warning issued by the State Department on Wednesday said it ''strongly urges U.S. citizens to defer travel to Japan at this time and those in Japan should consider departing.''

The former New York City mayor met with Senate and Assembly leaders on a top priority of his New York Uprising group. He seeks an independent, nonpartisan process to redraw election district lines next year, rather than the usual process in which the parties in charge of the Assembly and Senate redraw their own lines.
That process, required every 10 years, has been manipulated by Democrats and Republicans to protect the majority party and its incumbents for years by stacking voter enrollment. To change that, Koch says he's counting on voter anger, and pledges by the candidates for governor to veto partisan lines.
The Democrat says this election year, in which the Democrats' thin majority will be tested, boosts the chances of meaningful changes in the Albany. Good-government groups have long said incumbents are too comfortable to change the status quo and that special interests perpetuate the power of majorities through lobbying and campaign contributions on sure bets.
"I think we have a great chance," Koch said. "We have the commitment of the four gubernatorial candidates ... That puts us way ahead, that's never been available before."
But he is also counting on the tide of voter anger evident beginning last fall. "All incumbents today are part of an endangered species and they recognize that," Koch said. "So they are looking to establish their bona fide reform credentials ... we can even turn the bums into good people. So we are giving them that opportunity. I am honestly very upbeat about getting this done."
"New York Uprising" group secured the commitments from Rick Lazio, Steve Levy and Carl Paladino, all of whom are seeking the Republican nomination for governor. Democratic Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, who hasn't yet announced he's running, sent a letter expressing a similar commitment. The group includes former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a Republican; and former Gov. Mario Cuomo, a Democrat.
They seek an independent, nonpartisan commission to draw districts that would avoid splitting counties and county subdivisions, wouldn't split villages into different election districts and would "unite communities of interest." The new lines would also face public hearings statewide and would be made available on the Internet.
Redistricting — done after the U.S. Census — was intended to make sure racial and ethnic minorities have a voice in elections.

No matter how little the final score matters in the preseason, it's nice to see a win. The Colts first unit looked shaky for a minute, and then bolted out to a 17-3 lead, bookended by Andrew Luck touchdown passes, one a dangerous near-interception, saved by some amazing concentration on the part of Reggie Wayne, and the other a beautiful throw to the corner of the end zone to T.Y. Hilton.
Luck, playing most of the first half, finished 9/13 for 107 yards, 2 touchdowns, and a 133.7 quarterback rating. Darrius Heyward-Bey led all Colts receivers with 4 catches for 42 yards and looked downright legitimate in the process.
Reggie Wayne had 3 receptions for 37 yards including his touchdown. On the play, Luck threw the ball as he was going down, badly underthrowing Wayne. The pass bounced off a New York Defender's hands near the goal line and right to Wayne, who batted the ball into the air momentarily, only to catch it in the end zone for the odd-looking, highlight reel touchdown. (more after the jump)
Luck made up for the broken play in the second quarter with a beautiful 18-yard touchdown pass to T.Y. Hilton, who finished with 2 catches for 36 yards and continues to look very, very good in practices and in preseason games. Hilton is by all accounts an exceptionally hard worker, constantly seeking out ways to be a better player, and his efforts are showing every time he takes the field.
Areas/Players that Demanded Attention
On defense, the Colts finished the game with 6 sacks, definitely a better showing in the pass rush department. On the first unit, free agent signee Erik Walden added a second quarter sack of Eli Manning during the 2nd quarter that helped turn the New York drive into a three and out that set up Luck's second scoring drive.
Starting CB Greg Toler added an interception of Eli Manning in the first quarter on a play where both he and ILB Kelvin Sheppard had very good coverage.
With the backups on the field, DT Drake Nevis (2 tackles, 2 sacks), and OLB Caesar Rayford (3 tackles, 2 sacks) had stand out performances for the defense. Nevis was a 3rd round pick in 2011 who showed some noticeable promise before being hampered by injuries. Staying healthy will be the key for him moving forward.
As for Rayford, the former AFL star will either have to beat out Lawrence Sidbury for a roster spot, or hope the Colts keep a fifth player at outside linebacker. Rayford is 6-7, 267 pounds, and averaged 7 sacks per season in the AFL, a league built to be dominated by quarterbacks. Here's a link to my story on Rayford from back in May.
On offense, reserve offensive lineman and UDFA Emmitt Cleary had a nice showing on the field, keeping his momentum from a strong training camp, and laid a huge block on the Giants' 2nd round pick, DT Jonathan Hankins.
Areas/Players that Need More Work
The Colts had an up and down performance against the run, and struggled to run the ball themselves, finishing with 33 carries for 88 yards and 2.7 YPC. Take out Andrew Luck's 14-yard scramble, and that total dips to 32/74/2.3. Indianapolis doesn't need to be completely run focused, but they will be working toward a better result next week, when their starters will see their most action before the regular season opener against the Raiders.
Other than that, the second half looked like a preseason game, with some inaccuracy from the quarterbacks (Hasselbeck and Harnish combined for 8/15 for 55 yards and an interception (Hasselbeck), and several players playing for roster spots who have rarely played together as a unit.
This team's starters looked very promising, and they have a few solid performers in the bottom half of their roster. No one should ever be too high after a win, especially in the preseason, but this one did feel pretty good.

Accusations of sexual assault (such as rape or child abuse) are very serious and should never be taken lightly. The problem is that far too many people use accusations of sexual assault for their own gain. In other words, many people have been known to fling false accusations of sexual assault at someone to "get even" for some wrong they feel they have been done. Retribution in sexual offence cases can hold serious consequences for both the person being accused and the complainant.
False Sexual Accusations have become part of the compensation culture. True victims of a sexual crime should not get compensated financially. This we believe via our own research is probably one of the main reasons why there are so many false allegations in sexual offence cases. The compensation is that the true offender goes to prison!
The Accused
The person who is falsely accused of a sexual offence (whether major or minor) may well never recover from the serious damage that the accuser does to the accused reputation. Anonymity is not afforded to the Accused however it is to the Complainant! Even when the accusations are proven false, people often have the thought of the accusation in the back of their minds. That means that the falsely accused person will have lifetime repercussions because of a lie. No matter what a person has done in their lives, they should never have to deal with being falsely accused of sexual offence.
There are further consequences for the person that has been falsely accused as well. For instance, that person will likely have to pay for a good specialist defence team, which can be expensive. They will probably be suspended from work and in some cases lose their jobs over something that isn't true. They then may have to spend sometime in a courtroom facing a jury who decides their fate on what the accuser has said. After all is said and done, the falsely accused person could end up going to prison if the jury believe the case is true.
The Complainant
We prefer to us the word "Complainant" rather than the word "Victim" as this word insinuates the allegation happened. When someone accuses someone else falsely of a sexual offence the accuser usually wants some kind of retribution and what ends up happening is a long cycle of lies that will eventually catch up to the person who has lied about the allegation (this is known as the "snowball effect"). The consequences of this can be anything from broken families and friendships to being arrested for the false accusations, although the lie can take years to uncover and by this time it could be to late.
False accusations destroy lives on a very deep level. The person falsely accused will go through the rest of his/her life being treated, by some, as though they actually had committed the crime. They could end up losing family and friends who believe the accusation. Don't take any chances, get a specialist defence team.

Vanessa Minnillo doesn't hesitate when asked what makes Nick Lachey a great boyfriend.
"He's very supportive," Minnillo told PEOPLE Wednesday following an autograph session in New Jersey to launch her makeup line, Flirt. "He's here to support me."
Of her relationship with Lachey, who attended the two-plus hour appearance but stayed out of sight, Minnillo added, "I'm very grateful."
Minnillo says that she and Nick, who in April moved in together in New York, work out together with a trainer to keep fit and healthy. "I do a lot of reps," she says. "I don't want to bulk up."
Minnillo also says she's always wanted to date a guy who would cook for her. Asked if Lachey fit that criteria, she laughed: "No, I cook. We both eat – but he cleans up."
Talking about her new makeup line, Minnillo calls the project "my baby."
"It's surreal," she continues. "I picked out every color [of the eye shadows], I mixed and picked the colors for the lip glosses."
The line, which Minnillo's makeup artist Elisa Tallerico also worked on, consists of two different palettes of eye shadows and lip gloss.
Minnillo has long been a makeup aficionado, says the star who was "about 12" when she started wearing makeup. "I had a cousin who put eyeliner on the insides of her lids, so I did it too."
But it really started even earlier than that. "When I was a kid, I went into my mom's room and put on rouge," Minnillo says. "I'd put on her high heels and walk around the house."

Bachelor's Melissa Rycroft Dazzles in Dancing Debut
Scott Kirkland/INF; Craig Sjodin/ABC
If Melissa Rycroft had an inkling of a doubt that she made the wrong decision to join the cast of Dancing with the Stars, it was erased the minute she stepped foot onto the stage Monday night.
"She was radiant. She owned the place," judge Bruno Tonioli gushed to PEOPLE after the live show. "She embraced the whole feeling of the show."
The Dallas beauty, whose engagement to The Bachelor's Jason Mesnick ended unceremoniously on television just a week earlier, was embraced by the supportive crowd as she and partner Tony Dovolani took her mark during the commercial break before she performed. After she and Dovolani danced an elegant Viennese waltz, the crowd leapt to their feet. The thunderous applause was much deserved, especially considering Rycroft had only two days to rehearse while her other fellow competitors had four weeks. With 48 hours of practice, Rycroft managed to earn one of the highest scores of the night: a 23 out of 30.
The warm response brought tears of joy to Rycroft's eyes, and made the judges gush.
"You're just a beautiful dancer," an awestruck Carrie Ann Inaba said.
Perhaps head judge Len Goodman summed it up best, telling Rycroft, "The Bachelor's loss is Dancing with the Stars' gain." --Monica Rizzo

i believe Windows 8 is beautiful and not a failure... but its just annoying on my computer!! the gesture using the mouse is stupid!!!1but since this is post-pc era, everyone will jump on tablets now!
and im getting a surface pro but maybe the next version or whatever!!! coz i love the sony vaio 11 duo and dell xps 12!!! any users of these devices?

God so many idiots commenting. I'm playing battlefield 3, mass effect 2, dota, fifa 2013 and all my games perfectly on my alienware m17x running windows 8 pro. Everything from windows 7 still work and better because they use less ram. I can play four games at a time instead of three because it makes better use of my 4gb of ram. Mouse and keyboard still work. Full screen is for windows 8 apps. Use the thing before you post these damn stupid comments. Gosh. There is nothing you cannot do in windows 8 that you never did in 7. Windows 7 was made for touch screen too. Windows 8 is just an improved version of 7 that is more ram efficient. Before my sims3 deluxe pack with all the updates used to eat up 3gb of my 4gb ram. Now it hovers just above 2gb in windows 8. Dont be stupid. Again. If you still use xp your opinion is irrelevent

I really don't understand how people are not liking Windows 8. I personally love the performance of it on my Sony VAIO laptop which shipped with Windows 7. The "Modern" UI is actually pretty cool. Another thing, it's also OPTIONAL. In all honestly, since I spend most of my time in the Desktop, Windows 8 feels like Windows 7 to me. The only difference is that the Start Screen replaces the Start Button.
72. weedl (Posts: 50; Member since: 05 Oct 2012)
first time installing win 8 become lag after installing software , try to unistall not working had to reinstall windows 8 again....
75. 7thspaceman (Posts: 1546; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
Since Windows 8 is going to be on new computers it will sell . there are programs/ apps to get the Start button back and programs and app to help a person go directly to the desktop and skip the Modern UI AKA start screen. I have upgraded to window 8 PRO and find it OK. To me the Modrn UI AKA Metro start screen is just an additional Windows screen I can use from time to time. I do not let it bug me I use it to my advantage

On the Wiltshire border immediately west of Lockerley, the parish of East Dean stands astride the railway line from Romsey to Salisbury and the tributary of the River Test which runs parallel to the railway. The small village of East Dean is scattered along a minor road close to the railway, and the chalk escarpment of Dean Hill rises to the south. The original church was a chapel of ease to Mottisfont, and parts of the Norman work have been preserved in the Victorian building. There are some scattered areas of woodland and several public footpaths in this small agricultural parish.

If imitation isn't the most sincere form of flattery, John Mayer better watch his back.
The singer was the subject of a killer (albeit slightly mocking) impersonation by his pal Justin Timberlake on Monday's premiere of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
"John Mayer is like if Macy Gray and Smokey Robinson," Timberlake started, before switching gears, "Actually, Macy Gray and Smokey the Bear, had a love child."
Riffing on Mayer's hit "Daughters," Timberlake – who most recently scored big laughs with his SNL spoof of Beyoncé's "Single Ladies" video – then explained the technique behind impersonating Mayer's "solo face" saying, "Literally his tongue takes over."

Lower Swatara Township commissioners hired N.J. Hess and Associates on Wednesday to provide interim management services for drafting a proposal to hire a new township manager.
Commissioners also appointed board Vice President William Leonard to serve as an uncompensated liaison to township department heads until May 2.
The moves are necessary since the departure of former Township Manager Harry Krot, who resigned on March 12.
The board hired N.J. Hess, of Hummelstown for $6,000 plus expenses to "assess the township's needs and wants" for a new manager, solicitor Peter Henninger said.
Henninger said he didn't know how long it would take the firm to complete the job but said, "It has to be addressed ASAP. That's why we're addressing it tonight."
Leonard already serves as chairman of the township's police committee and is a member of the Personnel and Budget and Finance committees and the Non-Uniform Pension Advisory Board.
He also is a liaison to the Lower Swatara Township Fire Department, Middletown Area School Board and the Penn State University Advisory Board.
As a liaison to township department heads, Leonard has the authority to resolve department issues. Department heads also will report to him.
Leonard also has the ability to report department matters to Henninger and township commissioners. He also will provide reports at the commissioners' May 1 meeting.

Is an additive manufactured part structurally sound? Not necessarily. Particularly in plastic, a 3D printed form might easily be too weak to sustain a force required of it. In response to this problem, researchers at Purdue University and Adobe's Advanced Technology Labs have developed a computer program that automatically adds strength to 3D printed designs before they are produced. The program does this by increasing the thickness of key elements, adding struts or hollowing out overweight elements. This video from Purdue illustrates.

Despite some repeated arguments and assurances here that 011 most likely is a winner, the price of OGXI has virtually been cut in half in less than a year. What happened? The obvious answer is that there's more selling than buying going on. Most longs have (correctly) been pointing the finger at Fidelity's relentless selling, and sleeping at night secure in the knowledge that a big fund can sell for a variety of reasons - i.e., Fidelity's selling isn't necessarily a vote of no-confidence. However, with the release of the latest 13Fs, we see that Fidelity hasn't been the only whale distancing itself from this ship, During 2Q, Jeffrey R Jay, another one of OGXI's biggest institutional shareholders, reduced his fund's exposure to OGXI by almost half. So, now it's not just Fidelity acting alone for the mysterious reasons that big funds sometimes have for doing what they do. Now, we have two of OGXI's biggest fish swimming away even as Summer and others here vigorously rebut anyone who dares call into question 011's Ph II results and the lack of good news from Ph III. Big thumbs down for me, but I, for one, am not surprised. Although some here have argued that no bad news counts as good news, Fidelity and JRJ probably wouldn't be selling so much if they shared that opinion. I happen to interpret Fidelity's and JRJ's selling as votes of no confidence, but even more so, I view management's decision to enter into a ATM facility as the biggest vote of no confidence of them all. I fully expect the the facility to be used, and have to question why management wouldn't simply wait to launch a proper secondary after the 011 Ph III results were disclosed if they had as much confidence in the Ph II data as Summer does. Perhaps JRJ felt the same way. Disclosure: I'm an under water long like most of you.
Sentiment: Hold
Recent institutional holdings are a mixed bag that it's hard to draw any conclusions from. If you Google "OGXI institutional holdings" and select the Nasdaq site, you'll find that there were 14 new positions totaling 623,000 shares and 8 sold out positions totaling 164,000 shares; 32 increased positions totaling 922,000 shares and 28 decreased positions totaling 1.23 million shares. It's true that the biggest position changes were decreases by Fidelity and Jeffrey Jay, but Fidelity still holds 460,000 shares and Jay 347,000. Sabby Management added almost 200,000 shares and J. Goldman took a new position of 223,000 shares.
Admittedly, since it's an open-label trial, meaning the investigators know which of their patients are getting 011 and which are getting docetaxel (though they and OGXI and Teva are blinded as to the aggregate results), there's always a possibility of a leak. But given that the results are 8 or 9 months away, a meaningful leak at this time seems unlikely. If anyone would have a sense of how things are going it would be Teva. But they've also sent mixed signals: they said almost nothing about 011 in their strategic presentation last December but they've continued to fund not only SYNERGY but the AFFINITY and ENSPIRIT trials. And Cormack said in the CC last week that enrollment in AFFINITY is expected to be completed in the second half of 2014. That means that even if SYNERGY fails, there will be another P3 prostate trial (in second line with Jevtana) that will go to completion and will likely report data in 2015 (since second line patients don't live that long following treatment).
It is very unlikely that OGXI will not raise funds in advance of the phase III results. If they do it should not be looked on as a negative but just a prudent business move. Most small biotechs in their position would and if O11 fails they will look like idiots for not raising and will be forced to dilute at much lower prices to keep supporting the many 427 phase II's. I doubt that they will use the ATM for much of their financing. If the do it will be in the run up a month or so pre O11 results.
The market is expecting a raise and the big boys won't jump in until it is done in my opinion.
I also don't understand why they do not release results from the first 427 study that they have on their slides as reading out in Q1 2013. That's the part that bugs me!!
Investors will look like idiots, as they do for investing in vicl.
Do not let it bug you this is going down for good reason, other drugs are better !

The Babymakers
Starring: Olyvia Munn, Paul Schneider, Kevin Heffernan, Jay Chandrasekhar
Director: Jay Chandrasekhar
Rated: R
Audrey(Olyvia Munn) is all fired up to have a kid, all her friends have kids and it's her turn, the only problem is that her husband Tommy (Paul Schneider) is shooting blanks and can't knock her up, not due to lack of effort.
When all efforts are exhausted to get Audrey pregnant Tommy must take matters into his own hands and with the help of his best friends Wade (Kevin Heffernan) and Zig-Zag (Nat Faxon) along with a former member of the Indian mafia Ron Jon ( Jay Chandrasekhar) they plan on stealing an old deposit that Tommy made at a sperm bank.
Given a scant one month theatrical release prior to its DVD and vod release, came off initially as an odd strategy, after review this is the perfect strategy, everything about Babymakers works better on the small screen. It earns its R rating with gusto if you can discount the fact that everyone gets naked except Olyvia Munn who for whatever reason fails to be a goer, (odd given her role in Magic Mike, apparently it's art with Soderbergh) it's a shame when someone who is known more for her physical body rather than her body of work refuses to partake in the festivities. For the most part the laughs are strictly straight to DVD caliber, the exception being every time Ron Jon and Wade take to the screen, just making you wish the Broken Lizard alums could have the rest of their crew together to elevate the material. Just having team ramrod together for the small amount of time makes the film worth watching, particularly the heist scenes Heffernan slipping in a pile of jizz is fantastic, While Ron Jon is the stand out character of the entire film. This Rom Com is a Rom Rental.

Election officials in two counties have begun counting ballots in the contested race for state controller.
Assemblyman John Perez, a Los Angeles Democrat, requested the recount in Imperial and Kern counties after finishing third in the June 3 primary. Perez was 481 votes behind fellow Democrat Betty Yee, a member of the state Board of Equalization. Fresno Mayor Ashley Swearengin, a Republican, finished first.
It is the first recount in a statewide candidate election in modern California history.
Perez is seeking recounts in 15 counties, a process that could drag on for weeks. There is no deadline for clerks to finish. Perez's campaign must pay the cost.
Friday also is the deadline for Secretary of State Debra Bowen to certify the election results and release the official voter turnout statistics.

Council member Dwaine Caraway calls for apology after flawed Dallas judge selection process
In this morning's paper, I have a story about the resignation of Alex Hernandez from the Judicial Nominating Commission after his vote in support of a former girlfriend who got a judicial appointment. Asked about it, Hernandez suggested he disclosed the relationship to fellow commission members, but several of them disputed that.
The episode has called into further question the city's process of selecting judges, something several City Council members, including Dwaine Caraway, complained loudly about as the process was underway. The council's four black council members — Caraway, Tennell Atkins, Vonciel Hill, and Carolyn Davis — walked out of one meeting, complaining that their entreaties to retain two black judges were being ignored. It was the most divisive fight among council members that has occurred in years.
"We really took a black eye on that," Caraway told me this morning. "After the smoke settles, we find that the process was flawed."
Caraway said he and the others who called the process into question are now due an apology.
"We're not letting it go like that; it is not that simple; it should not be that simple," Caraway said. "People's characters were challenged, our character was challenged, and somebody owes an apology somewhere about the flawed process."
Caraway said he's not calling for Judge Paula Rosales Aldana, who would not have been nominated for appointment without the vote from Hernandez, to resign. "But I'm calling publicly in question the process and how unfair it was to us in trying to let our voices be heard fairly," he said.
Just moving on at this point "like nothing ever happened" is not an option, Caraway said. "That's not going to be."
After hanging up with Caraway, I called council member Angela Hunt, who co-chairs the council committee in charge of selecting the judges. Caraway never mentioned Hunt specifically, but she was the one who accused Caraway and others of cronyism in fighting to retain the two black judges.
"I welcome any improvements to this process," Hunt said. "If Dwaine has any specific ideas, I'm open to them, and we should certainly discuss it as a council."
Hunt said the committee has already held one meeting to discuss changes to the process.
"We can certainly continue to find ways we can make improvements and work to ensure that it's not who you know, but the quality of the judges' credentials that get them selected," she said.

Hey has anyone felt "flutters" yet? When do you usually start feeling that kind of thing? I know my baby is really down low and I have felt this weird sensation ( not flutters though) at what I would think to be the top of my cervix...wonder if that is baby?? I will be 13 weeks on tues; but baby did measure 12 wk 5 days this past tues the 22nd.
when do you start feeling the baby??
Married to my true love Evan 10/23/09
Our sweet baby girl Brooklyn Hartlee was born 1/2/11
Awww we have the same due date! This is my second baby and I have been feeling flutters all the time! With my first I didnt feel anything untill I was about 20 weeks!
I felt movement around 18 weeks with my first. It felt like gas bubbles. Rumor is that thinner women feel movement slightly earlier than others. At only 12 weeks, you probably aren't feeling the baby yet, but don't worry, by the end you'll have a major kickboxer in there, and will long for the days when you couldn't feel anything.
With your first it is usually between 18-22 weeks. I felt my second very early (12 weeks) and although people say it is impossible I know for a fact that I was feeling the baby. I was in the hospital for several weeks and was being monitored heavily and could actually watch and/or hear him move as I was feeling it. With this pregnancy I will be 12 weeks tomorrow and have felt a few small flutters in the last few days Soooo exciting!

With my first I felt my first flutters at 14 weeks, daily, active movement by 17 weeks. Everything I have felt so far with this baby is gas. :)
I've felt my first flutters when laying on my stomach, but nothing daily or regular yet.
Cara ODS "Bubs" 5.5 *SPD YDS "Booger" 3 *ASD EDD baby boy 1-18-17
With my first it wasn't till about 16-18 weeks. With this one, I've already felt movement.
This can be a touchy subject i almost get scared to answer LOL this is my 5th child and i am 11wks and i have been feeling flutters for a week or 2 nothing that if you put your hand on my stomach you can feel but i can feel it, sorry ladies not trying to start a fight, but i remember the last post from last week got a bit tense LOL, its always so exciting to feel those first little flutters and it makes you think man i can't wait until i can actually see my belly move from side to side, thats my favorite part of pregnancy becasue my DH and 4 boys can see him move around too.

Update: An elderly dementia patient who was reported missing has been found, a report says. According to The Police News, Barbara Griffitts was discovered injured in a ditch about 2 miles from where she was last seen.
David Simon, a former Galveston officer, and his wife, Lori, a nurse, discovered Griffitts while the couple were on a walk on Sunday, according to the report. Police News says Griffitts "was barely breathing, was suffering from severe dehydration, and was covered with ants."
An investigation is under way. KHOU-Channel 11 says Griffitts was taken to UTMB. No further information is currently available.
Earlier report:
Authorities were searching for a 74-year-old woman from Houston who was reported missing in Galveston on Saturday. A Silver Alert was issued.
Barbara Griffitts was reportedly last seen around 2 a.m. at the Delanera RV Park at 10901 FM 3005. She suffers from dementia, according to KTRK.
