Business briefs from across the nation and around the world
Calif. court: Governments can ban storefront pot shops
SAN FRANCISCO -- Local governments in California have legal authority to ban storefront pot shops within their borders, California's highest court ruled on Monday in an opinion likely to further diminish the state's once-robust medical marijuana industry.
Nearly 17 years after voters in the state legalized medical marijuana, the court ruled unanimously in a legal challenge to a ban the city of Riverside enacted in 2010.
The advocacy group Americans for Safe Access estimates that another 200 jurisdictions statewide have similar prohibitions on retail pot sales.
Bank of America, MBIA settle securities dispute
NEW YORK -- Bank of America and MBIA, a mortgage insurer, have reached a deal to settle a dispute over faulty mortgage securities issued during the U.S. housing boom, according to the Wall Street Journal.
As part of the settlement, Bank of America will pay MBIA $1.6 billion in cash, along with other compensation, provide MBIA with a credit line of $500 million and take a stake of about 5 percent in MBIA's holding company, the Journal said.
MBIA's stock surged $4.36, or 44 percent, to $14.19 as of 1:45 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Bank of America rose 53 cents, or 4.2 percent, to $12.77.
FAA safety oversight of aircraft repairs faulted
WASHINGTON -- A government watchdog says the Federal Aviation Administration's oversight of hundreds of domestic and overseas repair stations that service U.S. airliners is ineffective and doesn't target stations mostly likely to present safety risks.
The Department of Transportation's inspector general said in a report released Monday that a supposedly risk-based safety inspection system adopted by the FAA "falls short of being truly risk-based." The report said this is especially true for foreign repair stations.
To save money, U.S. airlines have increasingly outsourced their aircraft repair and maintenance to repair stations in countries where labor rates are cheaper.
EU: Motorola may have violated antitrust rules
BRUSSELS -- The European Commission said Monday that Motorola Mobility may have abused its dominant market position by denying Apple the right to use technology essential for mobile phones.
It is a violation of European Union antitrust rules for a patent holder to deny use to technologically essential patents to companies willing to pay a fair and reasonable price for their use. Motorola Mobility, which Google bought in August 2011, obtained a court injunction preventing Apple from using certain patented technologies considered "standard-essential" for the industry.
Hong Kong dockworkers end 40-day strike
HONG KONG -- Hong Kong dockworkers have accepted a 9.8 percent pay increase, ending a 40-day strike that slowed traffic at one of the world's busiest ports.
The workers settled their dispute late Monday by agreeing to the pay offer from four middleman contractors that provide staff to a container terminal controlled by Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing.
About 450 workers went on strike March 28. They originally demanded a raise of up to 23 percent. They later said they would settle for a double-digit percentage increase.
Adidas: Asia laborers can file complaints by SMS
BERLIN -- German sports gear maker Adidas says it is encouraging workers in factories of its Asian suppliers to anonymously share possible grievances directly with the company via text message.
Adidas AG, which also owns the Reebok brand, said Monday the SMS hotline will help bridge the communication gap between management and workers, enabling employees to "simply send an SMS when they feel their rights are breached."
It says the initiative was successfully tested at an Indonesian supplier's factory and will now be rolled out to four other plants in the country and one in Vietnam.
ECB, Germany at odds over banking union setup
BERLIN -- The European Central Bank and Germany, the bloc's biggest economy, are at odds over how to set up the banking union that is meant to stabilize the 17-nation eurozone's financial system.
ECB executive board member Yves Mersch said Monday in Luxembourg that in addition to establishing the agreed joint banking supervisor, the project also requires a centralized authority to unwind failing banks. He insists "one cannot live without the other."
But German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told French newspaper Les Echos that the establishment of such an authority to unwind banks isn't possible without changing the European Union's treaties, which is a complicated and lengthy process.

What is NAEP?
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), also known as The Nation's Report Card, is the largest continuing, nationally representative measure of student achievement in core subjects in grades 4, 8, and 12. The assessments follow the frameworks developed by the National Assessment Governing Board which specifies what a student should know and be able to do in a given grade. Since the assessments are administered uniformly across the nation, with the same set of test booklets, the NAEP results serve as a common yardstick.

McDONALD - For the second time this election cycle, an area school board race has not garnered enough potential hopefuls to fill vacant seats.
Aug. 7 was the filing deadline for all November races. However, no one filed to fill the two vacant seats on the McDonald Board of Education. Since that time, Robert Jones Jr. filed as a write-in.
"I was sad that no one signed up," said outgoing board member Catherine Harvey. "It's a wonderful position. We get to shape the policy that educates our future."
Harvey has served two terms for a total of eight years. She said maybe people are shying away from the position because the district went through a difficult period when it was placed in fiscal emergency by the state.
However, she said the community supported a levy that helped them work their way out of fiscal emergency in two years' time by March 2011.
"McDonald has gone through a rough patch and has come out the other side even stronger," she said.
Since she last ran, responsibilities and life changes have forced her to redirect her time. She will not be running again.
"I've got to have some new priorities ... Right now, it's family time," she said.
The deadline to file as a write-in candidate is 4 p.m. Aug. 26. Kelly Pallante, director of the Trumbull County Board of Elections, said it only takes one vote for a write-in candidate to be elected.
"Believe it or not, there have been instances where a write-in candidate has not gotten that one," Pallante said.
She said the board's website is being updated constantly when new candidates apply.
The Liberty Board of Education was facing a similar difficulty. As of the filing deadline earlier this month, one person filed for a board that has three vacant seats. Since then, two write-in candidates have filed.
Come January, if any board position remains unfilled, it will be up to the school board to appoint someone to the position.

The title says it all. Typically, full auto is used for fire suppression. Is there a police role ever that needs suppressive fire in that magnitude? I can't really think of a reason. Door Kickers might have a need, but not being knowlegable about that, I can't say that I'd know what that need it. I can certainly say that no town needs any sort of belt-fed weapon (hint-hint, bay area.) It would seem to me that any scenario I can think of is typically better handled by a well placed shot, rather than many shots that may or may not be aimed.

Skip to comments.Instead of Spain, Michelle Obama Should Stick to U.S. Vacations
Posted on 08/09/2010 1:06:07 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
Theres a lot of talk about Michelle and Sasha Obamas mother-daughter trip with 40 friends to a ritzy resort on the coast of Spain, and some of the commentary is a little harsh. Andrea Tantaros of the New York Daily News calls the first lady a material girl and a modern-day Marie Antoinette--but she also brings up a valid point about the cost to taxpayers of taking an estimated 70 Secret Service agents and Air Force Two on an overseas vacation. Ruth Marcus in the Washington Post writes that the attacks are unfair and that its not reasonable to expect the first family to have a stay-cation in Washington, cleaning out closets at the White House.
Maureen Dowds column on this in the Sunday New York Times quotes Obama adviser David Axelrod saying that not everything is political theater. Axelrod continued, Folks in the public eye are also human beings ... If you have the ability to show your kid a part of the world and you can do that together before they get to the age where they dont want to do anything with you, I dont think its right that you have to defer it because of the politics.
He makes a good point, and Im a big fan of foreign travel for kids. Im also all for mother-daughter trips together. But surely the Obamas have enough foreign travel coming up--to places other than five-star resorts--where the girls can see how people from other nations live and what its like for kids who arent as blessed as they are. The presidents canceled trip to Asia hasnt been rescheduled yet, but why not take the girls along, even if they have to miss some school? The only time I ever got to travel to a far-off place when I was a kid was when I accompanied my dad on a business trip. I suspect kids who can do that learn a lot more than they would have in the classroom.
Part of the problem with the trip to Spain is that Mrs. Obama was photographed wearing clothes by Jean Paul Gaultier, an expensive haute-couture French designer. Glamour magazines coverage (with photos) calls her an ambassador of total glam when she travels. Of course we all want the first lady to look great, but choosing way-out-there expensive designers like Gaultier might be feeding the narrative that theres a disconnect between the White House and the rest of the country. I think Mrs. Obama does a great thing when she chooses up-and-coming American designers--as she did when she asked Jason Wu to do her inaugural gown--or when she mixes edgy American designs with J. Crew standards.
[See photos of Michelle Obama.]
If I were first lady, Id have two rules: When out in public, Id only wear clothes by American designers, and when on vacation, Id only go to towns inside the United States.
Think of the excitement if Mrs. Obama had convinced her 40 friends to stay at an expensive resort (and there are plenty) on the Gulf Coast or in Florida. Or if theyd gone to see the Tetons or the Grand Canyon or Santa Fe or Macinaw Island. How about taking over a luxury resort at Half Moon Bay? The California economy could certainly use the business. The Obamas are already scheduled to go to Marthas Vineyard, which is great. They need to have more vacations like that: an opportunity to have fun with friends while also sending a strong message of support for Americas small businesses and small towns.
What could the daughter have learned on a five day trip to Spain.
How to say vanilla ice cream in espanol?
This was an outrageous abuse of taxpayer dollars.
If she wanted to spend time with a bereaved friend she could have invited the woman to the White House for a few days.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. I am sure if Laura Bush had taken similar lavish vacations we'd STILL be hearing about them.
It sounds like Mary Cate Kelly is a racist. So many racists in the MSM these days. Its just like Selma!!!
Even their toadies in the Lamestream Media are jumping ship over this. Hubby's already plummeting approval ratings are about to head through the basement floor.
Fixed it.
She's prolly just tired of being Barry's beard.
Sure. She could go to Vegas and rent the Bellagio for a week.
If it's Tuesday, the Obamas MUST be on vacation!!
"If she wanted to spend time with a bereaved friend she could have invited the woman to the White House for a few days."
Laura Bush went hiking in our beautiful Rocky Mountains when she wanted to be with her girlfriends. Such a down-to-earth trip.
Michellappalooza tour......
I'm sure she's not proud of anything American except her flunky, community organizing, teleprompter hubbie.....
Well, the downtrodden looks on the people losing their homes and jobs and the oil gobs on the beaches kinda ruin it for her.
Mr. President: Forget Air Force One - think "Airstream One"
Yeah...Barack and Michelle will pay attention. They will tour county fairs, stay in WigWam motels, visit VFW halls and catch fireflies at night.
And "bitter small town" America, where people "cling to their guns and religion" will rise as one and declare, gosh darn, this is the bestest First Couple ever!
Also a little off topic but has anyone given any thought to how this clown and is sour puss wife would act should they loose the WH is 2012. Would she go after the future First Lady? Sit there seething with hatred? Endure the boos and cat calls like the Bushes did?
These people can't get out quick enough for me.
hey Hillary took Chelsea on a trip...it seems to be an elitest Dem thing. to heck with the small people
Just waiting for the drumbeats urging Hillary to run start coming up.
"Let's Hear it for the Rainbow Tour..."
First, the assumption that it is the US taxpayers' responsibility to enhance the mother-daughter relationship between the First Lady and her youngest child.
Second, the idea that this is an accurate description of what is going on here: a multimillion dollar boondoggle involving an entourage of more than 100 people on the taxpayers' dime to an exclusive European resort known as one of the playgrounds of the world's wealthiest hedonists.
This is the First Lady treating her husband's office as a winning lottery ticket, not as a serious responsibility.
Its so frickin' weird and the comparison to the constant bashing and nit-picking of Bush is 20 stories tall.
"Ruth Marcus in the Washington Post writes that the attacks are unfair and that its not reasonable to expect the first family to have a stay-cation in Washington, cleaning out closets at the White House. Maureen Dowds column ... quotes Obama adviser David Axelrod saying ... 'If you have the ability to show your kid a part of the world and you can do that together before they get to the age where they dont want to do anything with you, I dont think its right that you have to defer it because of the politics.' He makes a good point, and Im a big fan of foreign travel for kids. Im also all for mother-daughter trips together. But surely the Obamas have enough foreign travel coming up—to places other than five-star resorts—where the girls can see how people from other nations live and what its like for kids who arent as blessed as they are.'"
I've got an idea for the jet-setting mother-daughter team: how about a trip to Kenya to stay in one of the huts the Obamas live in there? That will allow the daughter to meet some of her relatives her idiot father is so proud of and will allow—in Axelhead's words—the daughter to "see how people from other nations live" and see how she'd be living if she were in a third-world Marxist country (like her idiot father is trying to turn the U.S. into).
I remember when bubba said they hitlery and chelsea were gong to India because chelsea wanted chicken tandoori.
I think the trip was all about the Indians reneging on a deal they made with Enron. That deal ultimately helped destroy Enron.
Brilliant! a new beer guy has been born! Thanks for the laughs and keep em coming!
Love those!
The Obama's are simply following the advice of the late Jim Morrison:
Mrs. Obama's vacation to Spain will cost taxpayers well over $400,000... probably money borrowed from China. With record spending and $1 trillion deficits, federal debt to GDP at 61% and climbing and the national debt interest payment of $1.1 billion per day, do the American people really need to have this lavish expense added to our dismal fiscal plight? Perhaps Mrs. Obama will bring a large dessert filled "doggie-bag" back from Spain for the 25 million unemployed Americans who wonder if they have enough money for bread... then she can simply say to them: "Here... let them eat cake!"
I saw Axelrod saying he thought she deserved it. It might look like I'm bowing down. But I'm really just making sure my powder is dry.
Reminds of the story of when Anwar Sadat doubled the price of bread in Egypt. Then went to stay at one of his villas. He went out on the balcony and was concerned by all the black smoke coming from the nearby town. So he sent someone to check it out. Seems like the ENTIRE country was rioting. Looking for his head.
Obama is ensuring his place as a one term POS POTUS. Let him have at it. This is another straw on the camel's back. I'm ALL FOR them piling on the straw. When the back breaks I'll be ready. Are you?

West Virginia basketball coach Bob Huggins will be making his annual visit to the Coalton Days celebration on Saturday.
The Mountaineer mentor always takes time out of his busy schedule to visit Randolph County for the event.
It will be the third straight year that he's made an appearance at the celebration, where he's always a popular target for scores of WVU?fans. The fan-friendly coach never disappoints as continously mingles and takes photos with those in attendance.
Article Photos
The same is true for West Virginia University women's basketball coach Mike Carey, who will also be at the event for a third consecutive year.
"It's always exciting to have coach Huggins and Carey come to Coalton for the celebration," said Mike Ross, who helps organize the event. "I expect to see a lot of West Virginia fans come to Coalton Days to see coach Huggins and coach Carey. The coaches like visiting with the fans as much as the fans like seeing them."
New athletic director Oliver Luck, WVU?assistant coaches Billy Hahn and Erik Martin, and radio personality Jay Jacobs have been invited to the event. Ross is not sure if they will be able to attend because of other commitments.
Huggins just completed his third season as coach of his alma mater. It was his best season to date as he led the Mountaineers to the NCAA Final Four. WVU?has made the NCAA tournament in all of his three years at the school.
Huggins, who graduated from West Virginia magna cum laude in 1977, has 670 career victories as a collegiate head coach.
Carey just finished his ninth season as coach where the Lady Mountaineers finished 29-6 and made the NCAA tournament.
Carey has led West Virginia to four NCAA?appearances and two WNIT?berths.
The Lady Mountaineers have had just one losing season under Carey and have posted 20 wins or more five times.
Carey, a 1980 graduate of Salem University, is a native of Clarksburgh.

John Lobb Giono, 8896 Last, Size 8E
I spent the day yesterday with Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon, chef de cave of Louis Roederer, at Roederer's presshouses in Aÿ and Avize. While waiting for Jean-Baptiste to arrive from Reims, I snapped some hasty photos amidst the hubbub of activity surrounding the presses, trying not to get caught underfoot and feeling a little like J. Peterman, à la Seinfeld:
"There I was, in the midst of harvest, dodging forklifts and watching the fruit of countless man-hours of labor fly by at breathtaking speeds. The ground was sticky with the mangled carcasses of grapes not fortunate enough to make it into the press, thereby tragically missing out on their ordained destinies. A man loudly honked his horn at me, demanding my hasty retreat; another came towards me with a hose, seeming to spray water about indiscriminately in an attempt to clear the floors of detritus and the desiccated skeletons of unfulfilled pinot noir. It was chaos.
Thankfully, I was wearing my three-eyelet, Chukka-styled ankle boots by John Lobb, made of highly-polished, dark brown calfskin and built on the rugged yet shapely 8896 last. Thoughtfully double-soled with 3.5-mm rubber rather than the customary leather, they allowed me to nimbly evade the obstacles in my path, keeping my feet dry through the ubiquitous puddles of water while remaining elegant and stylish."
More about my Roederer visit tomorrow.

There are many reasons to start a collection, but perhaps none is so alluring as feeling a part of your country's history. On eBay, it is easy to find many different types of collectibles that celebrate Australia's rich history, including historical advertising for Bundaberg Rum, or an enamel sign announcing the presence of Coca-Cola. Of course, there is much more to collecting than signage and beverage. You may want to add a vintage jukebox to your home or even display a collectible knife over your mantle. On eBay, it is easy to search for all manner of historical or kitschy collectibles that can add a unique and vibrant air to any room.

|Credo students, blind find bond with woodwork
Eight visually impaired high school students in late February visited Credo High School for a day-long course in woodturning, creating rolling pins and baseball bats on the school's machine lathes.
The course was a result of an innovative Credo 11th-grade course called Developing Capacities, taught by Credo science and woodworking teacher Julian Shaw, PhD, in partnership with Hoby Wedler, a blind doctoral student in chemistry at UC Davis. The Waldorf charter school course is part of a larger intention of the two teaching colleagues to engage more blind and visually impaired (BVI) students in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education.
For Shaw, the experience could not have gone any better.
"Wow, what a day!" Shaw said. "It was beyond expectation, one of the highlights of the year for me. Our juniors really rose to the occasion. They showed an amazing degree of maturity guiding other high school students. Our students were exemplars.
"It was a teacher's dream. All of our students were totally engaged, and I just let the day unfold. Everyone went away with a sense that we were doing the right thing."
Preparing for this event over the 12 weeks of the Developing Capacities course, Credo students developed the social-emotional, communication, spatial and kinesthetic skills that are needed as an assistant to blind students. This initial program took the first step towards developing the necessary partner communication skill set, some background protocols and abilities to negotiate successfully a complex social/cognitive relationship that needs to develop between sighted assistants and BVI students interested in pursuing STEM careers.
To prepare for their work with the BVI students, Credo students were placed in sighted and blindfolded pairs. Each student in the pairing had to experience a woodturning task without the use of sight (while blindfolded), and developed some semblance of understanding of the challenges of performing a complex task.
This process allowed students to become more emotionally attuned with each other. More importantly, this immersion attunement helped students develop a deeper understanding of the capacities required in these "specialized zones" of development.
This effectiveness of the course is largely reliant on developing in-depth communication skills, which are different with each pair of students, and different depending on the events encountered. Assistants to BVI students should be able to develop an ability to "read" their partner's actions/speech and make crucial judgment calls about when to continue to allow the BVI partner to lead at their own pace and when to intervene either through verbal communication, spatial guidance, or kinesthetic modeling. The assistant's role then is not to guide the BVI student to a stated goal, but instead to follow the BVI student's lead, and in doing so, help create a new way of communicating. The "BVI individual as the leader" exercise provides an important lesson for both the assistant and BVI student.

Fixed PriceBudget: $50
Start DateMay 19, 2013
It all seems a bit retro, doesn't it? An actual A-Z index on a website, when we are all now living in the future, and where the search box is king. Maybe, but there is something special about indexes, even if you don't always find exactly what you were looking for then you will always find something else interesting.
We are running a food website with somewhere just below 300 articles at the moment, and a lot more planned articles coming.
I am looking for someone who can go through each article and add it to an A-Z index in a human logical way - not by some algorithm. Some articles will be listed multiple times, and there will be subcategories, etc.
I have started to do this myself, but simply do not have the physical time to go through all of the articles. The small part that I have managed to do will show you what I am looking for though. See here: http://porkandgin.com/a-z-index/
Budget is to be discusses, but ODesk needs me to enter something.

Glanville, 38, tied the knot with Darin Harvey, a mixed martial arts manager, after a tequila-filled night in Sin City, according to her Twitter feed.
She also posted a picture of the nuptials on Twitter, with the caption, "It wasn't planned and we will handle it, but good times!"
"I'm married again - suuuuuuck it!" she further Tweeted.
The newlyweds celebrated their "honeymoon" later in the evening at the strip club Spearmint Rhino.
But the marital bliss was short-lived. The couple plan to have the union annulled, Harvey Tweeted Monday, characterizing the wedding as a "drunken BFF thing."
"It[']s not legal! We were just having fun!," Glanville Tweeted.
Apparently not everyone saw the humor, however – some of Glanville's Twitter followers criticized the stunt.
"I didn't mean to offend anyone!" Glanville responded. "I believe everyone shud [sic] be able to get married & maybe even embarrass themselves in Vegas ;)."
Seems like those quickie Vegas weddings just don't last.

AS A RESULT of more than a decade of investigation in the field of replacement of defects within the cardiovascular tree, our group has been able to appreciate certain basic conclusions.
The first accomplishment was the establishment of a relative scale of acceptability of all known arterial graft materials (Fig 1). It is of interest to note that the fabric prostheses in general do not enjoy ultimate healing fates significantly better than homografts in general.2 With respect to small caliber arteries, the canine carotid homograft demonstrates a 50% patency rate in 90 days (Fig 2). On the other hand, equivalently small caliber arterial prostheses exhibit a 90% occlusion rate within 24 hours of implantation even when the superb microsurgical technique of Jacobson is employed (oral communication, April 1968).3
Methodical study of the factors influencing the healing of arterial prostheses allowed certain basic observations, such as the relationship between

Apple and Carrot Turkey - Step 4
Then we took Pipe Cleaner and using the paint brush we wrapped the pipe cleaner around the paint brush to make it curly. We did a longer one for the neck and four smaller ones for the winds and legs. After we had the pipe cleaner ready, we went and taped it onto the back of the pieces that they colored. Then we took a needle and poked a hole in the paper big enough to fit in a little end of the pipe cleaner. Then we taped the pipe cleaner on the back of the paper.

Getting Up Close and Personal
It is easy to be awestruck by a stunning landscape, towering mountains, or wide open spaces. Often, however, we tend to overlook the incredible beauty hidden in the details.
Macro Photography can produce some remarkable images, and provides a portal into the microscopic world all around us. Here are a few tips to get you started:
Keep Your Distance
Though you may be tempted to bring your lens as close as possible to your subject, it is important to maintain a bit of space, and let your camera do the work for you.Too close of a proximity could block your lighting and disturb your subject.
Manual Focus
Using auto focus can be tricky when shooting macro — you may notice that this setting will have a hard time adjusting when you shoot. Try using manual focus instead to improve the process and keep your images looking sharp.
Simplicity is Key
Composing an image with a single subject can be very effective with macro photography. With a narrow depth of field, your background will be out of focus, bringing more attention to your subject. Be sure to avoid any distracting lighting or objects in the background.
Switch It Up
Get creative and try shooting from alternate angles and experiment with lighting to create artistic effects in your images.
Now grab your camera and start exploring these miniature photographic opportunities!

Remember when I said the San Antonio Spurs spikes would be "nicely sharpened and ready to urge the Mavs into the direction of their vacations" Friday night?
Well after pulverizing the Mavericks 119-96, that was a bit of an understatement.
The Spurs didn't just "urge" the Mavs, they shot them onto the piers of the nearest beach like the Coyote launches t-shirts into the AT&T Center stands.
As I'm sure you all know, the Spurs led by as many as 31 points whereas the Mavericks led by as little as two, just two. Even with this great advantage, there was still enough drama to keep fans on the edges of their seats thanks to hard fouls and some "friendly" conversation between Tony Parker and the now strongly disliked Mavs' Dejuan Blair.
Considering my last post, San Antonio fans were confident the Spurs had game seven in the bag but did their expectations meet the beautiful blowout that became game 7?
Here is how they sounded off minutes after the game via Twitter:
"Hmm, I believe my pregame expectations were more than met and and blown out of the water just like Dallas was from the AT&T Center." -@TheCrunchySopa
"I felt certain the Spurs would take care of business today and I'm glad they did that with this blowout!" -@katiebelltx
"I expected the Spurs to win but not in this fashion!! Hope they carry this momentum to the Portland series!!!" -@texastoutah512
"I expected that display and a win. This kind of blowout, NO." -@satscribe
"A blowout? No. The Spurs were going to bring it, but the way Dallas has played, I thought it was going to be much closer (8-12pt)." – @Chill_Will
"[I] had a pretty strong confidence in us advancing to the 2nd round, but never did I imagine a victory of THIS magnitude." -@levoyelle
"Yes I was expecting the Spurs to blow them out, they're defending their home and determined from the last game. It was time!" -@jesscobedo13
"I was expecting one of these games, thank god it came in the one that mattered." -@matt194z
"Not at all. I knew they'd win, but damn. Total onslaught. They hadn't had a game like that all series so I guess it was due." -@JayP_Lugo
"Well I said in game 1 that the Spurs are going to blow them out at some point, it just so happened to be today." -@JPequalsAwesome
A surprise blowout was a great reward for the fans after suffering through seven games of Vince Carter threes and Blair's unsportsmanlike antics.
I'm sure I speak for all of Spurs Nation in saying I hope this fire and tenacity carries over into round two with the Portland Trailblazers.
Until then, GO SPURS GO!

Samsung GT-I9500 scores highest Browsermark 2.0 score
0. phoneArena 28 Feb 2013, 01:47 posted on
The Samsung GT-I9500, which is supposedly the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S IV, has scored the highest on the Browsermark 2.0 benchmark test, beating out some of the biggest superstars in the smartphone world like the LG Optimus G, HTC One, Oppo Find 5 and even the Sony Xperia Z not to mention the Samsung Galaxy S III...

THE beast is coming.....
10. blahUNimpressed (Posts: 2; Member since: 28 Feb 2013)
meh the BEAST is NOT coming and even if it did it will not live long. OCing the snapdragon 600 to its limits won't do it good for very long especially when the snapdragon 800 is coming out 2 months after the s4 release. Also let's not forget the IPHONE and its quad core cpu + rouge or powervr 554 gpu which is going to dominate the gpu side for this year. There is no way this stray dog will hold the title for long... consider it beat. BWAHAHA
22. SamsungFan (Posts: 201; Member since: 16 Apr 2012)
Nobody is sure about snapdragon 600 being used in s4. Samsung knows snapdragon 800 will be out soon and s4 is the flagship for the year so most probably It'll be exynos 5 octa in the international version and snapdragon 600 in us version
25. therealestmc (Posts: 320; Member since: 23 Jul 2012)
But most of nerds who like boasting about specs are in the US, so their version of the S4 will get beat pretty by apple or T4.
43. SamsungFan (Posts: 201; Member since: 16 Apr 2012)
That's true. People who reside in US might need to get an unlocked s4
26. TylerGrunter (Posts: 1522; Member since: 16 Feb 2012)
Those scores belong to and Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 at 1.9 MHz instead the 1.7 MHz in the HTC one. It's merely 10% higher.
Exyons Octa has 4 A15 and the score should be much higher in that case.
So for the leaked benchmarks is in all of them clear. If they use the Octa kudos to them for keeping it so secret, as not even ONE benchmark has leaked out.

Hi Tyler! :P

True this one is running on qc snapdragon 600. As they are keeping octa as secret.

7. Dr.Phil (Posts: 1163; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
It most likely will top most of the benchmarks, but this still doesn't prove whether the phone has the Exynos Octa or Snapdragon 600 in it. Remember, there were rumors that pointed to a 1.9 Ghz Snapdragon 600 processor which would put it above the HTC One and LG Optimus G's 1.7 Ghz clock speed. This could possibly give it the edge in benchmarks such as this, so that's why I am saying for right now it is inconclusive which CPU we are seeing.
42. medicci37 (Posts: 1276; Member since: 19 Nov 2011)
Tyler is right. It's the 600. If it was the Exynos, the benchmarks would be much higher.

5. techspace (Posts: 1036; Member since: 03 Sep 2012)
samsung galaxy s4 is the most anticipated android phone in the world, we all know that the s4 will have good specs and it will be very fast, i hope the s4 will look better than the s3, i hope that its made of aluminium, removable battery and sd card slot are really important, but if the ativ can be made with aluminium, then the s4 should be made with aluminium as well
35. redmd (Posts: 1268; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
the ativ is made of plastic which looks like brushed aluminum. it seems the design got you.
46. techspace (Posts: 1036; Member since: 03 Sep 2012)
Yes, the ativ isn't made of aluminum like the apple products or the new htc one, but I still don't think that it's made of plastic, but it feels better and richer than the s3.....I would like that material or coating on the s4 if we don't get anodized aluminum
47. techspace (Posts: 1036; Member since: 03 Sep 2012)
Actually you are right, it's pure plastic which looks like aluminum, it still looks better than plastic because of that colour, but lets hope that s4 is made of aluminum, or at least with that virtual aluminum on the Ativ lol....
6. jonartpop (Posts: 180; Member since: 25 Oct 2012)

GS4 will come and beat every flagship phone again like GS3 >.<
13. oying24 (Posts: 48; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
benchmark? how about the design? its too big for a smarthpone and too small for a phablet.. 4,2-4,7'is still the perfect size for a smartphone. look at htc LG BB and sony's designs,. samsung is just lucky to build a name. quality wise,samsung is a no no. thats a fact. and dont ever compare it with apple's quality.coz ya'll know the answer.
19. tedkord (Posts: 11667; Member since: 17 Jun 2009)
Sorry about your tiny hands. The SGS3 is the prefect size for my hands.
39. shuaibhere (Posts: 1986; Member since: 07 Jul 2012)
Apple's quality????
Yea they were first to release bendable phones that will be scratched out of the box...
14. frydaexiii (Posts: 1443; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
Somehow, I wish the S4 would be a flop, because if even the rumors and leaks are this awesome, it probably means I'll have to shell out money to buy it to replace my S3...
Gee, this must be how Apple fans feel all the time...No wonder Apple has their current release strategy...
15. exynos5 (Posts: 21; Member since: 17 Aug 2012)
If its octa core then not impressed....it might be 600 because see the difference between one , optimus and samsung , the increase is around 200 which can be attributed to overclock and also software optimization..

If it's plastic again I won't buy.
21. nikenturd (unregistered)
Wow ...dont you think that plastic back has some sense of purpose or something? yeah you are right, flexible back means it can accomodate removable batteries better than aluminium ones, plus it is more effective at absorbing any form of shock....Plastic back with removable batteries anyday over over fixed aluminium ones
23. PunyPoop (Posts: 752; Member since: 18 Jan 2013)
You are a rude guy sir. That's my standard and you have to respect it. I have nothing against plastics, I only said that "If it's plastic again I won't buy." then here you are saying blah blah blah!! Get a life!

29. _Bone_ (Posts: 2154; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Not very impressive considering the Snapdragon 600 improves on the S4 Pro by 50%, and the 800 will probably double that. This is probably the Octa performing and I think as far as user experience goes, it'll be fast enough, but far more concerning is the GPU they choose. The Adreno 320 is one beast and would not be surprised the US version handily beating the International in most tests.
But in the end, as long as all videos and games run smoothly, the real take it or leave it will be the user experience, and Samsung is the best on that front right now.
30. mydi.maus (unregistered)
looked at the graph ,whos that at the way bottom its GS3 even the nexus 4 beats it.
31. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
oldest smartphone out of the bunch is gs3..
36. xoatomxo (Posts: 57; Member since: 26 Apr 2011)
@mydi.maus you are an oaf.
56. procopiojose (Posts: 132; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
nexus 4 will look like a dumb device if gs3 beats it.. you know... gs3 is a much older device with just 1gb of ram and an older exynos chip..
34. inertiatic (Posts: 34; Member since: 29 May 2012)
LG Optimus G with 1.5 ghz s4 pro beats HTC one with snapdragon 600 and nexus 4 with same s4 pro? Or is it supposed to be Optimus G pro?
40. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
..you are right.
This benchmark is more about software /browser optimization, than the raw processing power.
The best benchmarks are Antutu (overall), Geekbench(CPU), and GLBenchmark (GPU)
41. bigstrudel (Posts: 518; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
Browsermark measures the performance of the browser youre testing it on. Samsung has a great stock browser. LG does as well. Not all browsers are created equal.
37. Shubham412302 (Posts: 431; Member since: 09 Nov 2011)
it's just 2k above optimus g
I think samsung should think of that. it can be broken easily.
53. procopiojose (Posts: 132; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
well.. samsung doesn't have to worry about that. benchmark scores can easily be topped but the user experience, tons of features and software updates will keep consumers to come back for more..
38. bigstrudel (Posts: 518; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
And the difference in day to day use will be? Yeah no difference. Any device running on an S4 Pro already never lags and launch times are basically instant.
Take these new super processors and underclock them for battery savings. Measuring raw performance in bemchmarks is completely pointless from now on.
44. Techboi (Posts: 84; Member since: 20 Sep 2012)
Not impressive the new Lg optimus phone should easily be better.
55. procopiojose (Posts: 132; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
you'll be impressed on how often lg updates its flagship devices... optimus 2x anyone??
45. DanishDynamite (Posts: 41; Member since: 28 Feb 2013)
Hahahahahaha, the Lumia 820 beats the living crap out of the S III :D didn't see that one coming? But anyways, nice score. I don't know if I'm buying this, HTC One or X Phone :)

The comical thing is, important things like processing power, functionality and utility mean nothing to the millions of Samsung haters.
I didn't bother reading the comments for this article but I'm sure there is at least 1 idiot commenting that he/she wants a phone that looks good, even when the "better looking" phone is inferior.
Your phone will spend it's entire existence doing one of the following.
A. in you pocket/purse, where you can't see it.
B. On your ear, where you can't see it.
C. Charging while you are either sleeping or doing something else like driving or working.
D. In use where you will be inputting/receiving data from the screen, which are all rectangles with light emitting from them.
In all of the above activities your phone's looks won't do a damn thing.
58. bigstrudel (Posts: 518; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
Millions of Samsung Haters? Sorry buddy Sammy is the new Apple. Its hip to have an S3 right now. And it doesnt have a thing to do with its processing power, functionality and utility.

Hart district officials are focusing on a short list of four possible sites for the long-awaited Castaic high school, a school board member said Thursday.
"We hoped to have announced a site before Labor Day," said Steven M. Sturgeon, member of the William S. Hart Union High School District board. "We're invited to the Castaic Town Council meeting in October and, at that time, we should be able to give them something."
The meeting is scheduled for Oct. 15.
Castaic residents have been awaiting a high school campus for more than 10 years.
In 2003 the district signed an agreement with developer SunCal for a site in the proposed NorthLake development, overlooking Castaic Lake.
But on Monday, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. of New York - the 158-year-old investment bank that funded many of SunCal's land development projects - declared bankruptcy.
Sturgeon, responding to a report in The Signal that the Lehman bankruptcy could make the NorthLake project, and related high school site even more unlikely, said the bank's troubles were irrelevant to the four sites being considered.
He declined to identify the locations.
"(The bankruptcy filing) does not deter the Hart board from making sure one gets built," he said.
Despite the Lehman bankruptcy, it doesn't matter who funds the construction of the new campus, Sturgeon said.
John Kunak, president of the Castaic Area Town Council and longtime advocate for a Castaic high school, said he is skeptical.
"If these guys are going to come and tell us they've found a site, I'm going to need more," Kunak said Thursday. "I want an absolute guarantee."
Joe Messina, a former school board candidate and critic of the district's proposed November bond measure, shared Kunak's caution.
"I would say if they have good news and they have something in writing ..., I will rejoice with them," Messina said. "But if its just verbiage, then I'm not interested."
Sturgeon and other Hart district board members hope November's $300-million bond measure will enable them to build more schools, including a high school in Castaic.

MADISON — A 21-year-old man visiting college friends in Morris County was dead when they returned from classes today afternoon, authorities said.
The man arrived at the Fairleigh Dickinson University campus in Florham Park Tuesday night to visit a friend, said Capt. Jeffrey Paul, a spokesman for the Morris County Prosecutor's Office.
Paul would not comment on what caused the death of the man, whose identity was not released pending notification of next of kin. But in a statement, Prosecutor Robert Bianchi said "preliminary assessment at the scene does not suggest foul play."
When roommates arrived back from class shortly before 3 p.m. today they found the man unresponsive and called Florham Park police, said Paul. He was pronounced dead a short time later at nearby Morristown Medical Center, said Paul.
Four hours later, the prosecutor's office Major Crimes Unit remained at the school with Florham Park Police, the Criminal Investigations Section of the county Sheriff's Office and the medical examiner's office.
More than 2,500 undergraduates and 900 graduate students attend classes at the primarily residential campus, known as the College of Florham, according to the university's website.

Apple refunds $6000 bill belonging to an 8 year old wielding her dad's Apple iPad
0. phoneArena 20 Jul 2013, 21:27 posted on
Lee Neale is just like many of us; he has an 8 year old daughter by the name of Lily and a good job as an aerospace designer in the U.K. Like most 8 year-olds, Lily asked to use her dad's Apple iPad from time to time and being a good Dad, Lee gave in. But one day, Lee tried to take out some money from his bank account and was stunned to find out that it had been frozen...

40. ZeroCide (Posts: 773; Member since: 09 Jan 2013)
First of all the guy was responsible. He had a password on it for purchases. So what you are saying is that he should not let his daughter play games with the iPad while he is away on business. I was un aware that his dughter had learned his password. $6000 is a lot of money to through away on virtual junk. His daughter was probably not aware what she was doing and niether was he because of being away on business.

Apple really needs a kids only mode. I've had younger family members use my iPhone and attempt to figure out my password so that they can buy something for game or download another app and it just locks me out and forces me to go to my computer and reset my password. Needless to say, it's irritating.

Get android and you can disable the password lock outs.

It's as easy as turning off in app purchases in the restrictions and password protecting it.

Pass the buck much.
Parents except others to police their children. This guy is let off the hook for being stupid, as he gave his consent to the child using his ipad.
And yes I know children can't enter contracts legally.

I agree, parents and their silly out-of-control rug-rats; they should all be fined!
And, the kids should be sent to school where they can learn something rather than play on iDudz!

This man surely must own a smartphone if he can loan his iPad to his 8 yr old daughter. He must be getting some sort of a notification on it.

Yeah android should invent a kids mode you just click and you can buy no password......

I think there's already a sign in option for the Play Store. I have a feeling it's the same way for the App Store because I constantly have to sign in if I were to download a new app or update the current ones on my iPod Touch or brother's iPad.

I've used "App Lock" by DoMobile Lab to put a lock on my phone's settings, app stores and task/app killers. Pretty much locks it down for the kids. Now I just need a way to prevent sideloading without preventing it for myself.

Plenty of apps on android to lock kids out on android while IOS is a barren wasteland when it comes to that.

A good deed indeed. Hope we hear more positive news from Apple such as this one.

Kids ALWAYS know more than the parents think they do. If someone forgets that...
Regardless, parents SHOULD stop passing on the responsibility of raising their kids to everyone and everything else.

I once made an accidental purchase on my ipod touch and they refunded the cost. At first they said all purchases were final too, but they gave me a chance. The cost of that purchase was small though.

For once apple did something right. Next time dad don't let your kid sign in on your acct.

Well this time I disagree with everyone and shame on Apple; Apple should not only make the man pay the $6000+ charges in in-app' purchases but they should also fine him an additional $6000 dollars for being an iDiotDaD aka iD³.
What is this world coming to when Apple gives an iRefund to an irresponsible parent!!??

And if a parent had the same experience with Google and Android I'd imagine your comment would be much different. Stop trolling, you make all us android users look bad.

Good to see Apple come to their senses, but it's really a shame that Apple even considered letting the bill stick in the first place.

This was irresponsible and reckless on the parents' part. An 8 year old child should be expected to know the value of money and he should have known better. Understanding his child and what it is into could have been an integral and important step from preventing the mishap that occurred here.
34. darkkjedii (Posts: 21292; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
Re read the article. The child isn't an it, she's a little girl name Lily, also how many 8 yr olds do you know that understand the value of money, processing transactions, and handling accounts? Being able to count some coins doesn't add up to the knowledge of finances dude. Lily was going off memory, which most little kids use to do things they're not fully versed in. And what part of this article leads you to believe he doesn't understand his child?
39. JMartin22 (Posts: 1969; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
I don't care what that little degenerate is called. That's simply negligent parenting. Children learn the value of currency and monetary value as early as age 2. Maybe he should teach his daughter better values. She ascertained enough knowledge to go through the proper process of issuing a transaction multiple times. Her critical thinking skills are refined enough to have awareness of the implications she caused
