PASCAGOULA, Mississippi -- The Pascagoula Historic Preservation Commission is trying to work with two property owners to salvage three of the city's oldest homes from demolition, but the chances of saving them are slim.
James Platt owns two homes on Front Street that were on the Mississippi Heritage Trust's top 10 endangered historical places list in 2010, one of which is among the last antebellum structures in Pascagoula. Charles Petty owns a home at 3611 Frederic Street that has been in his family since the 1860s.
They filed demolition applications with the city, but this week the Historic Preservation Commission issued a 60-day stay to see if a remedy could be found to save the houses -- or at least some of their contents.
"It's a very, very sad situation," said Liz Ford, chairwoman of the commission. "In this 60-day period, we are trying to work with the owners to advertise to see if anyone is willing to move the houses and if there are no takers, then we'll work with the owners to salvage materials out of the houses, flooring and mantles and such, that can be reused rather than just have them bulldozed."
Platt and Petty are in similar predicaments.
The old riverfront homes have been damaged by Hurricane Katrina, time and -- in one case -- termites. Without grant money earmarked for historic projects, it's not cost effective to restore them. The owners can't get that kind of grant money because the homes would have to be raised to meet new flood elevations, which would also be too costly. Then, of course, skyrocketing insurance costs would have to be factored.
"They've outlived their physical life," Platt said of the Front Street homes. "A wise, prudent investor would not come in and spend money on these houses. It would be throwing money down a crawdad hole. When I first bought this (seven years ago), I tried to come in and get rid of the termites, but Orkin told me it was too far gone.
"We want to make everyone happy, but we're not going to make everyone happy. If these individuals that really want these houses, if they really want to come in and buy this place, it's for sale. Let them buy it. I bought it. We'll work a deal and give the houses away and move them."
Platt's Front Street property is five acres with 535 feet along the Pascagoula River. It's listed for $3.8 million.
The two houses are the last remaining structures in Pascagoula's original Front Street Historical District.
The house on the northern side was built by John Delmas around 1840. Delmas, a ship pilot and entrepreneur, was a descendant of Pascagoula's first settlers.
The adjacent house was built for his son, Charles Delmas, about 1898.
Platt said he's spent about $1 million on the property after purchasing it, including a new roof on the John Delmas home 'to make sure it didn't rot all the way down."
"They're just in bad shape," he said. "You might be able to salvage some of it like the old stair wells, the hardwood floors, the doors, and the walls are tongue-and-groove hard pine, but it will be a big undertaking with a lot of liability."
Petty said he would like to put a senior care home on his property. The home was built in the 1860s by the Colle family of Colle Towing in Pascagoula.
"We're between a rock and a hard place," he said. "It's been a killer as to what to do. Banks don't want to lend money for homes in that neighborhood and you can't get the grants. It's less expensive to tear that house down and rebuild than to redo it."
Petty said he received a $30,000 federal grant after Katrina and he's spent about $15,000 of that trying to secure the home.
He said the low bid on elevating the home 4 feet to meet the flood code was about $60,000 and that the front and back porches would have to be torn off to do that work.
"I hate to tear the house down," said Petty, holding a photo album that survived Katrina and included family pictures at the home. "My mother and her three sisters and brothers were born in that house. My grandmother and grandfather got the house in 1917. There are a lot of memories there."
During this 60-day window, Petty said he was exploring some options, including perhaps some BP oil spill restoration money, to help with the property.
All three homes in question are on the National Historic Registry.
Ford said at the end of this 60-day period that the commission would meet again and make a determination on the fate of the homes.
"It's sad but we have to be realistic," she said. "You don't want to lose things. This is part of our history and fabric of our community."

DOYLESTOWN - Mike Clark didn't even let the question finish being asked. He knew his answer, and he spoke it.
"Awesome," the Lycoming head football coach said.
And just for added emphasis, he repeated it.
There was so much Clark could have heaped praise on safety Tanner Troutman for after Saturday's 24-14 win over Delaware Valley, but the simple two-syllable adjective he repeated before the question was done being asked seemed to encapsulate it all.
Troutman played the best game of his young career Saturday afternoon. It would be hard to lose a player like Nate Oropollo and the four sacks he recorded against the Aggies in the shuffle on a normal day, but Saturday wasn't a normal day.
Troutman, a sophomore safety, did everything the coaching staff could have asked to help the Warriors put together its best defensive performance of the young season, first out of earned playing time, then out of need when Ryan Fenningham went down with a knee injury. And Troutman played every facet of the defensive game superbly yesterday.
He recorded an interception at the goal line on a potential Delaware Valley touchdown pass. He made a brilliant open-field tackle in the fourth quarter saving a touchdown which would have drawn the Aggies within one score of Lycoming's lead with more than four minutes to play. He batted down a pair of passes and separated receivers from the ball a few other times.
And just for added measure, the 160-pounder delivered the hit of the game, taking a page out of the book of Cody Butler, the player he played in place of for much of Saturday's game.
In a word, on a day where he had to be, he was awesome.
"The kid's a good football player," Clark said. "I know it sounds very simple, but he just makes plays. He's around the ball all the time. We're thrilled with him."
"He's definitely just scratching the surface of what he's capable of," Oropollo said. "He kind of got thrown in this week and we wanted to see what he's capable of. He played great."
Troutman earned his playing time with a solid performance against Brockport a week ago, a performance which included an interception. He played out of necessity when Butler, a Hughesville graduate, battled an illness for much of the week, and much of the day Saturday. He, along with Caleb Shertzer, earned even more playing time when senior Ryan Fenningham left the game in the second quarter with an injured left knee and didn't return.
And in a spot on the field which was manned for the last three years by two-time All-American Ray Bierbach, Troutman showed there's no drop off with the departure of Bierbach. He was a do-it-all kind of player.
Consider his open-field tackle on Darren Parrott in the fourth quarter occurred 32 yards downfield, and then consider he also recorded a tackle for a loss, as well, Saturday. The hits he delivered didn't seem to fit his 5-foot-10, 160-pound frame, but he delivered them nonetheless.
"I come from a small school with a lot of smaller athletes, so I'm like average size in high school, but I'm not afraid to hit," said Troutman, a Tri-Valley graduate. "You can't come play college football if you're afraid to hit people. It won't get you anywhere. So being as small as I am, if I don't hit, there's not a spot for me on the field."
"I'm not going to lie, I was a little worried about him at first because he's a little on the smaller side and I wasn't sure if he could play. But he was really popping people today," Oropollo said. "He is a hell of a safety and down the road he's going to be making bigger plays."
Troutman showed off the Warriors' improvement in the Warriors' secondary with his interception yesterday. A week after giving up more than 300 passing yards, Lycoming made the necessary adjustments to help slow down Delaware Valley's passing game.
It was a communication problem a week ago that saw Brockport be able to find open windows to make big plays. Those windows were shut down for the most part yesterday.
And when cornerback Matt Talerico ran deep down the left sideline with the Aggies' Lewis Vincent, Delaware Valley was trying to take advantage of one of the windows Brockport had exposed a week ago. But better communication allowed Talerico, a senior corner, to run with Vincent while Troutman came over from his safety spot to undercut the route and make an interception on the Lycoming 3-yard line.
"We stressed all week that the corner has to get underneath so I can get over top of the post," Troutman said. "But I didn't have that threat, so I was able to get over the top with Talerico and I was able to make a play."
"(Defensive coordinator Steve Wiser) has done a great job of getting him ready and he's done a great job all preseason," Clark said. "He's really matured. He was fantastic."

Your Review:
The Chinese Parrot (1926) is the second in Earl Derr Biggers's mystery series featuring Charlie Chan. What is interesting is that these stories were running during the same time period as Sax Rohmer's "yellow peril" Fu Manchu. Biggers's representation of Asians may not be perfect, but it is certainly far more positive than most of the Western literature of the early 20th century. The Chinese detective from Honolulu manages to outsmart everyone in this snapshot of 1920s America. And he's using his intelligence for good, rather than in an evil "yellow" plot to wipe out civilization. I grew up watching the Charlie Chan movies on Saturday/Sunday afternoon television and I must say that I appreciate this novel much more. I enjoyed the mystery and the wisdom of Chan. It didn't matter that I suspected who was responsible the entire time...there were enough twists and turns and unknowns to make for an enjoyable read. Three and a half stars. I read this for many online reading challenges that I do in the book-blogging community and because it is a vintage mystery--a genre that I love. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good classic mystery.

DESA, UNDP Launch E-Discussion on 2014 AMR
February 2014: Ahead of the 2014 Annual Ministerial Review (AMR), the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) and the UN Development Programme (UNDP) are organizing an e-discussion to engage experts, policymakers, practitioners and other stakeholders in a global dialogue on the theme, 'Addressing ongoing and emerging challenges for meeting the Millennium Development Goals in 2015 and for sustaining development gains in the future.'
The AMR will take place as part of the UN Economic and Social Council's (ECOSOC) High-level Segment in July, in New York, US. The 2014 AMR is expected to make policy recommendations for sustaining development gains, and highlight areas to monitor and address to ensure sustainability beyond 2015. It will also include National Voluntary Presentations (NVPs) from: Bolivia, Gambia, Georgia, Kuwait, Mexico, Palestine, Qatar, Sudan, Thailand and the UK.
The e-discussion is expected to provide ECOSOC with inputs and policy recommendations on strengthening efforts to achieving the MDGs by 2015 and on sustaining and continuing development gains in the context of the post-2015 development agenda. Input also will contribute to the UN Secretary-General's report on the AMR theme, regional preparatory meetings and the NVPs.
The e-discussion includes three parts. Part I (3-16 February) will focus on 'Facilitators of development progress, including in the achievement of MDGs.' Part II (17 February-2 March) will address 'Sustaining development gains through inclusive development.' Part III (3-16 March) will discuss 'Measuring progress in MDG achievement and beyond.' A summary of the discussions will be prepared by 28 March 2014.
AMR preparatory events will also be organized at global, regional and national levels. [AMR 2014 Website] [DESA Newsletter] [E-discussion Website] [2014 NVPs]

In recent years, Shadie Hall has always been concerned about possible federal budget cuts to the Aiken-Barnwell Head Start pre-school program that she directs – but she has seen nothing quite like the current funding situation.
If Congress doesn't find a solution to a gridlock involving budget cuts to decrease the national debt, automatic reductions to the military and many social programs would take effect Jan. 1. The total cuts over 10 years would amount to $1.2 trillion.
The impact to Head Start nationally could be 20 to 22 percent of its budget, said Hall.
"That could mean a loss of $650,000 to our program here and the loss of 476 children," she said. "We have 90 employees in seven centers in Aiken, Ridge Spring-Monetta, Salley, Gloverville, Barnwell, Williston and Blackville."
While Congress and the White House almost certainly won't allow the process, called a sequester, to occur, no one in Washington expected it to get this far without a solution. Republicans and Democrats have been unable to agree on a debt reduction strategy both can live with.
That's what worries Hall, who cites the value of Head Start for 3- and 4-year-olds and their families.
"I love working with the children and the parents," she said, "being able to see the growth in families, especially those with more than one child."
In a Head Start classroom last week, teacher Cassie Bates enjoyed an ongoing conversation with the kids. They talked about the food they were eating for lunch.
"What's the color of the container?" Blue.
"What's the color of the arrow to open it." Red.
"What are you drinking?" One percent milk.
"It's been a great experience, being able to implement developmentally appropriate activities for them," said Bates, starting her second year with Head Start. "We focus on school readiness goals and prepare them for kindergarten in the public schools."
Hall acknowledged that studies in the past have criticized Head Start's effectiveness. However, she cites research through a 2010 study administrated through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The study indicated in part that "Access to Head Start has positive impacts on several aspects of children's school readiness during their time in the program."
The program also provide medical and dental components for the children, said Hall.
"If they have developmental delays or other issues, we can get on top of it early," she said. "That will put them in a better situation when they go on to public school."
Hall also cites Head Start's opportunities for parental involvement. Parents serve on parental, policy and health care advisory committees. Former parents serve as board members for the Aiken-Barnwell Community Action Agency – Head Start's parent organization in Aiken and surrounding counties.
The national Head Start Association has started a campaign to call House and Senate members of Congress, explaining the services the agency provides.
"It's about who will care for the children and how they're being successful in Head Start," Hall said. "It's a hand-up, not a hand-out."
In Bates' classroom, the kids took turns holding up hand puppets with names like Ollie Orange and Burple Purple.
"It's a fun way for them to learn their colors," Bates said.

The Chiefland Indians and Branford Bucs locked helmets in a phone booth for a defensive tussle that left the score knotted at 0-0 at the end of regulation.
Luckily, the Indians (2-0, 1-0) proved to have a little more left in their tank, as senior Lonnie Hinote ran right for a 10-yard, walk-off touchdown in the first overtime to lift CMHS to a 6-0 homecoming victory and a 2-0 mark.
Chiefland is 1-0 in District 1A-7, while Branford (2-2 overall) starts at 0-1 in the district.

Patently ridiculous: Apple applies for iOS face unlock patent
0. phoneArena 29 Dec 2011, 12:54 posted on
This isn't the first time we've seen it from any tech company, let alone Apple, and it probably won't be the last, but Apple has put in an application to patent a technology which some of us are already using: face unlock...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. israelian (Posts: 12; Member since: 15 Dec 2011)
Apple, stop making s**tty steps! The world'd be fine even if without you.
29. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
I seem to recall a similar function being part of Android ICS. I guess Apple doesn't care if their patent is invalid before it has even been awarded.
39. ReturningToNokia (Posts: 130; Member since: 09 Jul 2011)
Umm...Apple applied/filed the patent in June 2010. ICS was just released a few weeks ago.
Besides, if Google doesn't have a patent on it, why shouldn't another company file for their implementation of the technology?
43. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
And I suppose there was zero development time involved with the facial recognition function in ICS? BTW, for Apple's application to not be subject to an invalidity challenge, there must be no publication of algorithms for facial recognition prior to the filing date.... I rather doubt that test will be met.
46. ReturningToNokia (Posts: 130; Member since: 09 Jul 2011)
Then Google should have filed for the patent while this was in development, or once their development was completed. What is so difficult about filing a patent? It's seems others do it quite well; why not Google?
47. sgogeta4 (Posts: 394; Member since: 02 Feb 2011)
You clearly do not understand anything regarding Google's open source stance. While Apple filed the patent a while ago, none of their products currently use it...
64. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
> And I suppose there was zero development time involved with the facial recognition function in ICS?
This coming from Droid_x_Doug (the same guy who was beating his chest exclaiming that ATT will engage in a hostile takeover of TMobile USA).
The US patent law has changed -- now, the basic rule is first to file versus the the prior doctrine of first to invent.
73. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Ah... haven't you requested PA to change your ID to strident1, yet?
BTW, do you know anything about invalidity? Even under first to file, if publication of the underlying principle occurred more than 1 year prior to the filing, the patent's validity is still open to challenge. Facial recognition has been 'out' for way more than a year before 2010.
If you need a referral to competent patent counsel to explain the concept, I can give you one.
40. quakan (Posts: 1373; Member since: 02 Mar 2011)
It's the patent office fault. I bet what they do is look through their database and see if something is already patented and if they don't see it, they just award to the first bidder. They should hire some techies in that office so they can actually show them what could actually be patentable. I love apple products but even i agree that these vague patents are ridiculous.
87. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
apple applied for this patent in june of 2010.. it only recently became public... how is that in violation of android? which recently only came out a month ago? yes they acquired a company before, but if we are being true and just, did google do any of the work that apple did?
2. Slammer (Posts: 1515; Member since: 03 Jun 2010)
----"Either way, there is no reasonable way that this patent should be granted, but no one ever said the USPTO was a reasonable organization, and it certainly wouldn't be the first time Apple or any other company were granted a patent for something that already exists."----
I agree totally!
If technology proves anything, it does not like to be stifled. It needs to advance by way of leapfrogging on one great idea and move it forward. It does NOT take kindly to being controlled so no other can capitalize on it.
Touch Gestures, Face recognition etc, are all technological inventions or discoveries that benefit all of society. It should remain open to every single individual regardless what product or company they choose.
Just as Linux has benefit the computer industry. It is imperative that the patent office reviews technological and scientific innovations with care. One controlling entity will provoke a severe slow down, or worse yet, a stale-mate in moving forward.

this proves that apple is not innovative as before
just find competitor's technology and has been using it for a bit then claimed as their own
cheap apple you are just cheap right now

Apple sees a good thing & does 1 of 2 things.
#1) They try to patent the technology.
#2) If the patent doesn't work then they buy the tech or company outright.
Apple to me seems to have lost its edge. They clearly don't innovate like they once did & are now releasing sub-par products like the HUGELY underwhelming iPhone 4S. This is just a sad state of affairs for Apple. Their magic is fizzling away & soon people will notice. If Apple doesn't shape up, this could be the beginning of a RIM like fall for them.
Apple needs to do more than rest on its laurels.

Let me be the first to say this before any iphone lovers say it.

Stranger things have happened.
I think its time Google actively patents all its inovative ideas, making the wording as vague as possible so as to cover everything from the kitchen sink to the push buttons on the toilet...
Will that be a half or full flush??
12. derricob (Posts: 25; Member since: 18 Jul 2010)
This is a bit low for Apple. a face recognition unlock patent? It's funny they didn't apply for this a year ago or so. They chose to do it after Google/Android released their new flagship phone and software that uses it. Also, what happens to the little guys like the devs that made iGotYa and Visidon Applock? Will they be banned or sued if this patent is approved?
51. stealthd (unregistered)
They did apply for it a year or so ago, 18 months to be exact. The patent was just published.

If this is true then I really have lost all respect for Apple! Tim Cook has to reign in these lawerys. This is absoulutley BS. Aagain I am a tech agnostic I favor neither camp I just like what can get the job done I own a ipad and a Xoom I was a iphone 4 owner but have now moved over to a Samsung Galaxy skyrocket since it provides the LTE performance I need. I love all tech gadgets. However, the recent rash of patent lawsuits that Appl has been launching against other device manufactures is very concerning. And this if it is true is probally what will cause me to really double think purchasing anything else from Apple.
Please say it aint so!!!!
19. joseg81 (Posts: 194; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
honestly if google stepped up and fought back i'd be so happy cuz this is just crap.
and if google would only come out with a dedicated music player and accompanying software, n no i'm not talking about google music, i'd get rid of my ipods. google music is great but i want my music without being tethered to the cloud and i didn't buy my phone to turn it into an ipod.
20. PhoneCritic (Posts: 693; Member since: 05 Oct 2011)
Patent office please wake UP!!!! and reject this one out right. This move, The more I think of it, is so Steve Jobs. I hope Tim Cook is not going to carry out his personal vendetta agains Google. No let the old war die with its founder and please move on to new innovative things. This is just to petty.

Apple can file tor this but if they prove there concept is after Google they will never win in court. Apple is the master of invention just look they were the first to add pull down menu with Emails, messages and more, oh wait!!!

35. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
lol guess we know whats iphone 5 selling point is going to be...and apple will claim that the 4s isnt capable of face unlock.
36. tacohunter (Posts: 408; Member since: 06 Nov 2011)
Much like the somewhat controversial face unlock feature built-in to Google's Galaxy Nexus smartphone, a new patent application reveals Apple too is working on similar, but more advanced user detection solutions. As PatentlyApple pointed out, Apple noted these recognition systems could land in a future iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or MacBook.
The basics of the patent entitled "Low Threshold Face Recognition," is to allow a user to unlock a device—such an iPhone or iPad—using facial recognition. Apple's solution could allow the device's camera to recognize the user even when the device is in sleep mode. In other words, the device's camera would remain active when sleeping, detect the user, and unlock the device without having to press the sleep/wake button. This could, in theory, allow a user to bypass the current Slide to Unlock feature.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the system would be the ability for the device's settings to be customized depending on the user. For example, when detecting a specific user, iOS could set personalized wallpapers, notification settings, and custom configurations for apps. This would provide multiple user logins, allowing iOS users to easily share a device among family or coworkers.
For those who didn't read the source or this is just the patent in short extra info. It's stil a lot different from google's. P.S. a month ago or so they had a 3d face recognition patent.
41. tacohunter (Posts: 408; Member since: 06 Nov 2011)
P.S.S. maybe Michael needs to update this article.
44. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
Nice read. Thanks but you must also remember what Michael posted that the camera app can already distinguish certain parts on a user. The SDK also provides more power to the face recognition. Why the app is limited. We have no clue yet but it was deemed as beta. Only thing I never like is that again will limit the amount of uses someone can find if used on the war
37. ReturningToNokia (Posts: 130; Member since: 09 Jul 2011)
For all of the Android fans who think that face recognition/facial unlock is new and that it was invented by Google, please understand...there is a face unlock app in the Nokia Store and has been for quite some time. No, it is not implemented into the Symbian OS, but this type of technology is not new.
In addition, Apple's implementation (if you read the source) goes beyond what is on the G Nexus; the G Nexus implementation is no different than the app in the Nokia Store, which is very basic (http://store.ovi.com/content/205739?clickSource=search&pos=1)
45. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
Again there has also being an app on the market I don't think people are claiming this is Googles invention but rather not wanting this as an ammo against android. Now the face unlock might be basic but the SDK has lots of new cam features that devs could approach a faction was used for face unlock the other for the new camera app. Why? Don't know but the nexus can read lips and facial expressions its just being told not to do so.

I think patents are getting completely out of hand. In the world that we live in now, there are always so many ideas rolling around about how to improve a product or another idea. These patents make it impossible for a company with a good idea to do anything with it when companies (Apple) make it impossible for anyone but themselves to touch it. The consumers are the ones who get the short end of the stick here, and as usual, the corporations get the money. Just my 2 cents.

depression tactic again
wake up Apple, I'm about to lose all of my respect to you

The patent was just PUBLISHED. Apple applied for it 18 months ago, before anyone outside of Google knew about it. So no, ICS's face unlock is not prior art, and no, there is nothing ridiculous about this patent unless you just casually ignore the facts like this article does.

Yeah. But then this site is not the greatest source of news either.
52. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3108; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
It doesnt matter who started it, we all know Apple didnt invent it nor do they have the rights to patent it. They are just trying to control every feature and make other companies fear of using it. Bottom line is they are trying to create a monopoly yet they state they love competition...right.

well, apple ios is good, but this kind of lawsuit things bother me a lot
is apple afraid of losing with android ? why they can just confidence on themselves

So people are upset at a patent that Apple applied for over a year ago..
58. chadrick0814 (Posts: 209; Member since: 23 Nov 2011)
People are upset that apple is applying for a patent for technology that already existed. If Google was able to release facial unlock on ICS, I bet they were working on it well over a year ago. People will really be upset next year when apple sues Samsung for violating the patent. Apple patents things they haven't even created.

To the strawman generators:
We are not claiming that Google invented face unlock.
We are not claiming that Apple can't have face unlock.
We are not disputing the time period in which Apple filed its patent application.
What we're worried about is that Apple has a habit of trying to patent ideas and methods that other companies have already used in their products so that they can level the patents granted as weapons against their competitors. The story is also notable because Apple is not the first at all to implement this feature in their OS, yet they're considered the great innovators by iFanboys.
57. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Why is anyone worried about Apple patenting this? That's just a symptom of the real problem, which is the complete failure of the USPTO to deal with technology patents properly.
61. stealthd (unregistered)
How is this such a failure? Just because someone didn't invent the wheel doesn't mean they can't come up with some novel, patentable uses for it. The patent doesn't give Apple ownership of facial recognition.
62. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
There's no such thing as invention, just discoveries. No one invented the car, but someone did discover an efficient way to take wheels, pistons, combustion pressure, etc and make it into a mode of transport.
This patent wouldn't give Apple ownership of facial recognition, but given how broadly patents tend to be written, it would give Apple ownership over using facial recognition on a mobile device to unlock that device. Just like Apple may not own the idea of pushing a latch to the side to unlock something, but it does own the patent on the idea of using that motion on a touchscreen.
The patent system is a failure because it doesn't take into account prior art, or duplicate applications, and it doesn't require a working prototype or compiled code of anything, just a theoretical drawing or description. Case in point, someone was granted a patent for making toast in the year 2000:http://www.google.com/patents/
That is a complete failure of a patent system.
70. stealthd (unregistered)
The only problem here seems to be that companies are issued patents before the true limits of those patents are determined (in court). It's a little backwards but hardly a complete failure.
80. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
That's almost an impossible thing you're asking. Testing the limits of a patent is tough enough without having a working model of it, let alone the fact that people are notoriously terrible at understanding the full ramifications of new technology. The court system is already overloaded as is, and adding technology patents to the mix make things worse because so few judges can actually understand what they are dealing with. It ends up just being wasteful. The best test of a technology's limits is time. Of course, by the time we fully understand the limits, we've likely moved on to the next thing. Patents don't help any part of that process, they just gunk it up.
88. XiphiasGladius (Posts: 813; Member since: 21 Aug 2011)
The one that worries me is that if this patent is granted it may block the innovation/improvement of the Face Unlock which is implemented by Android, since the idea in the patent that they applied is a leapfrog from the one's that is implemented at the moment in the Android OS. . .
59. smartphone (Posts: 160; Member since: 21 Oct 2011)
soon apple will be filing patent for antigravity, teleportation, time machine etc.
When some body actually invented them(joking) . Apple says hey we file the patent long ago so its ours.
60. SensibleVision (Posts: 2; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
This article describes a small part of the technology that FastAccess has used since we innovated this type of face recognition in 2006. Come see us at CES in a couple weeks. We will demonstrate FastAccess Anywhere – for mobile. Using patent pending technology, we have optimized it to recognize faces in real-world mobile conditions. Our tech is highly resistant to photo and video of an enrolled person's face. sensiblevision.com/faa
63. TKFox007 (Posts: 303; Member since: 02 Nov 2010)
What I don't like about Apple is that they'll file for patents, get them and turn around and sue other companies who were using the idea long before them.
I can only imagine that they're going to use this patent in another lawsuit against Samsung. And because USPTO just hands patents willy nilly
As someone said before, Apple has lost their edge, they've just turned into patent trolls, not to get money, but in an attempt to monopolize the market by making Android devices useless.
Why they don't go after Google is a question that remains largely unanswered. They are the ones who are distributing this "patent infringing" software to manufacturers.
66. rockstarlive (Posts: 307; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
this story is gonna be pulled down seriously....
Even though I own a android device....
Apple actually filed a patent on this in 2010.
Talk about jumping the gun.
I was looking around andI am pretty sure it was filed in 2010.
Its just that its now taking this long to make it public. almost 2 years.

Ace Combat 6 anticipation
With 48 hours and counting until AC6's release my anticipation is at its apex. As a flight sim/arcade fan ( Il-2 Sturmovik , Wing Commander: Prophecy ) i've been waiting what seemed to be eons for something of this calibre to hit the PC or even the 360. Theres been a huge void in this genre for quite some time now. Namco's Ace Combat series has always been a staple of great arcade air combat simulation and rightly so. What makes this game different is Namco's realization that online multiplayer was the way of the future. For now its exclusive to the 360 but i'm sure it will come out for the PS3. This should have been a multiplatform title from the get go but i'm sure MS monetarily incentivized Namco to focus the main build for the 360 primarily to optimize the game for xbox live multiplayer.
I'm so excited to get to the skies i've signed up with an online squadron and played the demo more than a handful of times. To those of you who read this and will be purchasing the game watch out for my black Rafale aka the 4 of Spades of the Aces High Mercenary Fighter Wing 51st Mercenary Division.

Space heater is a special device used for heating outdoor and indoor areas. Its main function is to heat small or medium size rooms. You can use it while your central heating is either on or off. In this space heater review we are aimed to choose the best one for household purpose.
First of all it's necessary to define what types of heater we have. They can be divided into convective and radioactive heaters.
Convective heaters use oil or other filler which transfer warmth to the air. Delonghi TRD0715T Safe Heat Oil-Filled Radiator is an example of such heater. It's very economical in using energy- due to the 3 speed levels and 96 settings programmable timer. And it should be mentioned that with an LCD temperature display it is really easy to use. Another example of this type of heaters is Mr. Heater 80,000 BTU Propane. In comparison with above mentioned heater this model is aimed to be used outdoors or at the workshops and garages. Its main benefit is that it works on propane. This fuel is cheap, eco-friendly and widely available. Its main unpleasant feature is that while using it in a closed room there should be ventilation. It means that you are forced to buy a fan together with the Mr. Heater , if you don't have one.
Lasko 755320 Ceramic Tower Heater is modern self-contained unit. It has all necessary features for the best space heater: quiet work, overheat protection, several speed levels, compact size and flexible portability. Moreover, it has a Digital Display and Remote Control. The only complain on this device is that it beeps very noisy while changing the settings.
Sunpentown SPT SH-1507 Mini-Tower Ceramic Heater perfectly combines in itself the heater and the fan. When it's cold you turn on the heater, but when it's hot you can use it as a fan. One unit stands for two. The one drawback that we found out is that it has a limited heating area. It's only for small and medium rooms. So consider the size of your rooms if you are planning to buy a heating device.
Now it's time to turn to radioactive heaters. Their most important distinction from convective is that radioactive heaters warm objects not the air. It makes its best when used in small room or certain places. Soleus Air MS-09 Oscillating Radiator is one of the best representatives of that type. It's small, doesn't stir up dust and burns oxygen. Due to its shape and one negative feature it gets the nickname "small sun". It's too bright on high setting, which can be disturbing.
And finally after a short reviewing of other worth-looking heaters we are glad to introduce you the best space heater according to our opinion. This is Lasko 758000 Cyclonic Ceramic Heater. It has 2 speed level, 7-hour timer, self-regulated element, overheat protection, the ability to change the position of air flow.
We just hope that this review will help you to choose the heater which will fit your apartment and your needs best!

How do you balance friendships that you have and time with your Husband or how does your Husband balance time with friendships?
One of my friends is married and I am friends with both husband and wife and my brother has been friends with my friends husband since kindergarten. Both me and my brother both have children and they have 2 children as well that are close in age with out children. It seems as though they rather to their own thing then to hang out with us all the time. We invite them once in a while to some gathering but they decline. We don't even have play dates with the kids. They hang out with married couples more than hanging out with us.
Is it because i'm nto married in a relationship? I could understand that, but it shouldn't be that way.
Should there be a balance with friendships and family/marriage or should it always be family only and friends later or never?

DD2 Superintendent Joseph Pye has some concerns about how this years school test scores are going to pan out, but after this year is over he feels teachers are in a better position to teach students Common Core Standards.
On May 1 the Senate approved a bill that replaces Common Core education standards with those developed in South Carolina by the 2015-16 school year, according to The State paper.
The bill passed 42-0 and is a compromise of legislation that had sought to repeal the math and reading standards that have been implemented in classrooms statewide since their adoption by two state boards in 2010.
Sen. Sean Bennett, R-Summerville, said this bill allows South Carolina to take back control of its own curriculum. Common Core English/Language Arts and Math will still be taught for one more year, but now school districts will be able to design their own tests and curriculum. Before the end of the school year there will be a study done by a committee, which will evaluate the implementation.
This has been the bridge year of South Carolinas implementation of Common Core Standards, and many DD2 classrooms have already included Common Core into their classroom instruction.
Bennett feels this compromise comes as a relief for many people. There were a lot of people in the community who were concerned with Common Core, he said, adding he felt a lot of concerns circled around a fear of losing control. I think this was a good compromise.
Bennett also feels that with DD2 already implementing Common Core, educators will be able to weigh in on the benefits of the standards and capitalize on those benefits.
Pye said he feels the move to replace Common Core was a good one, and that the move says a lot about the states legislature and the need to have students better prepared for the workforce.
When youre teaching standards as tough as those are, it leaves little room for teachers to work with what they want to do, he said, adding there is a difference between standards and curriculum, and many parents might not realize that. This is saying that the district will have more control over the curriculum.
Assistant Superintendent Sean Alford feels the districts teachers will be satisfied with the change in assessment.
Our high school teachers will not be upset at all at switching to an assessment that is going to attribute to (students) success when they leave us, he said.
In addition to Common Core movement, Governor Nikki Haley recently signed a law eliminating HSAP testing, which Pye lightly touched on at DD2s board meeting on April 28.
HSAP (High School Assessment Program) has been a requirement for students to graduate high school. Pye said high school students take the test their sophomore year and if they do not pass they take it again their junior year.
Haleys signature means next school year HSAP will not happen.
Pye said he feels the test was eliminated because it was not needed. It was a minimum test, he said, saying he felt it did not particularly challenge students. It really wasnt helping us get our children ready for college.
Pye also felt the test was not tied in at all to workforce development.
HSAP will be replaced with ACTs WorkKeys or with the SAT/ACT college entrance exams. DD2 officials have explained that WorkKeys is a skills assessment system that helps employers select, hire, train, develop and retain a high-performance workforce, and helps teachers get their students ready for work.
HSAP was never going to tie into any of this, Pye said. Im glad South Carolina is moving in the right direction.

�The center will be the doorway to a million-acre classroom,� said City Light Superintendent Gary Zarker. �This project symbolizes the work we�ve done to balance our needs as a growing community with the need to protect the environment. Clearly, the center�s message is that we must maintain that balance.�
City Light owns and operates three dams � Ross, Diablo and Gorge � on the Skagit River within the Ross Lake National Recreation Area. The Environmental Learning Center is part of a mitigation package associated with City Light�s federal license to operate the dams. Mitigation negotiations culminated in the signing of Settlement Agreements in 1991, and the dams were granted a new federal license in 1995.
City Light is financing the project with a total contribution of more than $21 million, including $12 million for site acquisition and construction, $4.2 million for operational support and about $4.5 million toward an endowment fund. The City of Seattle will advertise for contractors later this year. The facility is expected to open in 2002.
The center will be located on the shore of Diablo Lake, about 130 miles northeast of Seattle. Its 16 buildings will include staff and visitor accommodations, classrooms, science labs and an outdoor amphitheater. Hiking trails and outdoor learning areas will also be developed.
Seattle City Light will be owner of the facility. The North Cascades Institute, a 15-year-old organization that provides outdoor environmental education to 10,000 people a year, will operate the center and develop its educational programs.
North Cascades National Park will be responsible for water and sewer mains, water supply and trail maintenance and also provide support for the institute�s educational programs.
The partners in the Environmental Learning Center project are working closely with the architect, the Henry Klein Partnership of Mount Vernon, Wash., to design an environmentally responsible facility. The wood used in the project will be sustainably harvested. Plant materials gathered on site will be propagated and replanted, so all plants at the facility will be native to that specific location. An on-site recycling and composting center is planned, and power lines will be buried.
"City Light has a good record on the Skagit,� Zarker said. �The river continues to support a huge salmon population. The Environmental Learning Center is another important contribution to environmental protection and awareness.�
The groundbreaking and tree-planting ceremony will take place Saturday, Sept. 16, 11:30-3 p.m., 68 miles east of Interstate 5 on North Cascades Institute Highway at Diablo Dam, milepost 127.

ok so while i was jtagging one of my xbox's, when i was flashing it back something must have went wrong because i couldnt turn on the xbox anymore and nandpro wouldn't recognize the xbox so i looked around and someone said to short out a few of the pins on the nand chip and that will fix it well i think i did it wrong and shorted it out, after that i tried a mod i found on xs where you can add a 5v power supply to the xboxes nand so i did that and it still wouldn't recognize the xbox in nandpro so im sure the nand is fried, im just wondering is there any way to fix this, i remember hearing about dual nands ages ago, if anyone knows of a product that would help me fix this please point me in the right direction

I don't think dual NAND will work if the first one is dead. Did you power on the console when it was hooked up to your PC or something? You'll probably need to get a new NAND chip...hopefully you have at least your orig.bin.
Posted 02 August 2010 - 09:05 PM
yeah i have my orig.bin. and no i never powered on the xbox while it was hooked up to the pc. i think it was when i shorted out the few pins on the nand that killed it but if i did the xd card mod could i just lift the nand chip out of it all together and just use the xd card as my new nand ?

'BAMA Magazine/BamaMag.com was present for the 2013 Draft Red Carpet event.
Standout offensive tackle prospect D.J. Fluker was the first former Tider we caught up with on the red carpet about 90 minutes prior to the start of the show.
Lacy stopped by to talk about his unusual situation and chance at history with a former high school teammate.
Perhaps set to be the initial Alabama player taken, Dee Milliner brought a host of people close to him along for one of the biggest days of his life.
Set to be one of the higher guards taken in the Draft, Chance Warmack completes his rise from middle-of-the-road recruit to NFL standout on Thursday.
And one of the more well-known former Alabama greats took in the day as well. Joe Namath had plenty to say on the NFL and of course his Alma Mater.

Is Winchester all they had? Did they have any other reloading stuff? I'll be in Tyler this weekend to visit family, actually Chandler, but Tyler isn't too far off.
August 7, 2013, 04:03 PM
Academy has never carried primers in the past, so I was surprised by the find. I do not believe that there is any more reloading supplies. jwrowland77 FYI I live in Chandler and work next door to Academy
August 7, 2013, 04:46 PM
I would check each pack before you buy, 2 of 10 were missing primers.

Oh dang. I'd be pissed.

Our farm is in Palestine and I usually have to run to Gander if I need anything while I am up there playing with the toys.
August 7, 2013, 05:30 PM
Academy is about 1/2 mile north of Goober Mountain
August 7, 2013, 08:03 PM
It's WAY down on south broadway. I saw some tuesday morning at academy in conroe tx. winchester brand, all sizes, $4 a box of 100. pretty good if all you need are a couple hundred. I however need to buy in bulk.
JL, I live in tyler, so if you ever want to talk shop give me a holler. or I can keep you in mind next time I order components online.
