HARRISBURG, Pa. — Pennsylvania's state House majority leader, Mike Turzai, is telling top Republican Party officials that he plans to run for a U.S. House seat.
View full sizeTwo party activists said Friday that Turzai is informing key people of his decision before he makes a public announcement.
The activists who spoke to The Associated Press did not want to be named talking about the subject before Turzai publicly announces his candidacy.
Asked about it by telephone Friday, Turzai said he was in a meeting and couldn't talk.
Turzai, of Allegheny County, would run for the 12th District seat whose suburban Pittsburgh boundaries were dramatically redrawn in December by Turzai and other top Republicans.
Its new boundaries combine portions of districts currently represented by two Democratic incumbents, Mark Critz and Jason Altmire.

Parrots at Lunch……
Photographed from a friend's garden in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
" ….Ceylon large parakeet or Alexandrine parakeet (Psitticula eupatria) is called Labu Girawa in Sinhala and Periya Kili in Tamil. Named after the legendary Alexander the Great of India. This bird is also found in India. This resident bird is the largest amongst our parrots. It is a little smaller than a crow but has a long tail. The tail feathers are graded and of different lengths.
Only the males have a ring round their necks, the front half of the circle being black and the back half pink. The males of Rose-ringed parakeet also have a similar colored ring but the large parakeet has a much bigger beak and is also bigger in size. Also both sexes of the large parakeet have a red patch on the wings.
This species is found in the low country dry zone and is not seen in the hill country but is seen infrequently in the wet zone. It prefers to frequent jungle tanks and chenas near jungles. Its presence, in some areas, where it was seen in large numbers has now diminished. Some birds of this species are seen in Colombo.
Small flocks of this bird are seen flying fast making a screeching noise. These birds pair off for life and at breeding time the pairs move out of the flock to nest. The rest of the time they remain with the flock foraging for food. They also roost in communal roosting trees. Coconut trees are also popular roosting trees…." (Extract from Jayantha Jayawardena's Wild Life)
Nature …..(through the camera lens)
Am I the Only One?
This little Purple Rumped Sun Bird is a frequent visitor to my garden. He gets fooled by his reflection seen on my windows, the car mirror and on this occasion, on the glass panel of a box housing the electricity meter.
I captured him through my window as the little bird was totally engrossed in checking out the vision of his look-alike !

(n) The act of tripping a person who is walking and then instantly having sex (not rape) with this person before they hit the ground. Tripsex is a punishment for an annoying person who deserves it. This is not enjoyable for either party.
That kid is so annoying, he deserves a tripsex fast.

O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Ramlal Bhagat, a Class XII. student from Haryana,India has developed a 32-bit operating system demonstrated to be far Superior to any of the desktop operating systems in the market today. The program has been named "O-Yes". O-Yes provides operating system services on any Pentium-based personal computer (PC) and does not require MS-DOS as a base operating system. The operating system's capabilities were demonstrated in a student convention at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), New Delhi.
HCL Ltd. conducted benchmarks on the system and published results, which are partly reported here:
Ramlal Bhagat, described as "quiet and philosophical" by his peers, was not available for comment. Suresh Reddy, spokesman for HCL Ltd.,said, "this is the operating system that the world has been waiting for". On HCL's move to purchase the rights to the software, he said, "We are here to ensure that Mr. Ramlal gets fair recognition and compensation for his innovation. HCL Ltd. can provide him a firm launch-pad to market software globally". Is this the beginning of the end of the Bill Gates' monopoly ????? :D
This article can be found at the following location :
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Hain buddy,
sorry ,But i want to ask you one thing,are you still using Windows 95 and NT.
pls come to present,the most old OS to be commonly used is 98 which is itself 50 to 55 % faster and reliable then 95.
and now windows is so advance,no buddy in world could compete them except Macintosh.
thnaks and sorry if this reply hurt you
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
It is fairly unjust to compare a high school student's effort with a product of an organization which boasts of having the best programmers in the world, and has spent billions of dollars and decades to develop and market their product.
The article was an attempt to bring to light the genius of people like Ramlal who are unfortunately not brought to the limelight. And who knows ... might be tomorrow if a dozen of Ramlals team up .. they might give Windows a run for their money ....
And as for Windows ... the days when Windows was synonymous with OS is already a thing of the past.
Amit Ray. :cool:
Microsoft's only factory asset is the human imagination. (Bill Gates) :D
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Yea you are right Amit.
let we pray that,that day shd come early when people like ramlal team up to create the new OS and drive india toward path of Becoming Super Power as Early as Possible
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Hi all,
just visit the link: http://www.ramlalbhagat.com/o-yes.html
The design of the site is like one I desinged in 10th grade for my curriculum. .
Muze HCL ne contact kyo nahi kiyaaaaaaaaaaaa???????
BTW, Ramlal says in his site that they were 12 guys working on so-called OS.
Other links on this website show you some funny ideas like adding shortcut to a folder to context menu or blablabla .
Let me guess what should have happend:
this ramlal guy has done some sort of course in VB6 and developed some basic porgs. And excited by this he and his frnds tried to develop a O-Yes, ye samazkar ki OS banana VB6 me programing itna easy hai..
Also he said that he stop working on this project 6 years b4. To HCL ke offer ka kya hua??
Guys .who r in support of this guy: Come down to earth. Its true that we Indians are doing gr8 in IT. But still how can we belive that a single person can develop an OS?? Why we are making a joke of ourseleves..?
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Hi amit,
This is Ramlal here.
I've joined this forum only to reply to this offensive post.
I'll try clearing a few things up.
I also love the way you address VB.
Bottom line : The mail that you probably got is almost all untrue. However I did start work on an OS and worked on it for 2 years. Of course I dont have any "screenshots" to show - the project never reached that stage. I'm making some efforts to revive development; however have not made any progress so far.
All I'm asking for is to keep an open mind about it, and not brand me and my work as a joke.
PS Amit: You seem to have posted the same post at a number of places. You do seem determined to "expose" me.
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Also if you want you can nominate it for Support Open Source as well.
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Good going Ramlal.
You shouldn't criticize someone that has made a operating system better that Microsoft, ok it was a bit late, but Microsoft has the man power and the money to be able to make things fast, and look were that got them...........
Though I must agree amitmohod on this one, the site is a bit bland.
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
keep up the good work ramlal.
Re: O-Yes its the beginning of the end of bill gates
Im sorry but this just doesn't fly with me.
1. Microsoft will have a huge hold on the market FOR YEARS to come. If any of us see the a huge new OS in our time I will be shocked, unless its a google OS (wishes)
2. 32 bit? c'mon man way of the past. Im sure if they made a 64 bit 95 computer it'd go twice as fast to. So its a waste of time to make a 32 bit OS.
3. Its not so hard to make your own OS. my friend did it in like a week or two, sure it was crap. but he did it in one week lol.

Park Slope – Craigslist Blotter
Santa baby, so hurry down and kill me tonight
Cute idea having a Santa come Christmas night to give presents to your kids. However, later, when talking to the police, you'll realize this plan went off the rails the minute you decided to hire a stranger off of Craigslist to play the part.
Childhood obesity rates are running rampant in this country. Well, not running. More like riding really quickly in those motorized wheelchairs from Wall-E. So exercise is good. Let's get those kids sweating. Baby yoga though? I don't know. Put your kids in kung fu. They'll get in shape snapping boards.
It is against the law to masturbate while looking out a window. It might seem like a grey area because you are in your house but nope. I asked a lawyer. Anyway, I hope this woman is intentionally putting on a show for this man. Otherwise this is the creepiest Craigslist post we've done yet.
I don't have mother-daughter fantasies. It's like eating the chicken with the egg. It doesn't feel right. So let's just take this for what it is. A daughter thinks her single mother is lonely and needs some company for the holidays. If any of you single Park Slope dads are interested shoot her an e-mail. Just remember tell us how it went!
What's worse, getting murdered by a stranger off Craigslist or having to sit in this terrible movie theater? Follow-up question. Did you know there was a platonic section on Craigslist? There is. This guy is looking for a date there. A movie date. The worst kind. Just go to the movies by yourself dude. It's NYC. Nobody is going to think you're being weird. Well maybe for wanting to see The Best Man Holiday. Not because you are alone though.
This chair looks sweet and super comfortable. And it's free! You can't go wrong with free. Only complaint is I'd have probably cleaned up my room a bit before snapping pics of the chair. Still. Great looking chair.
Let's go Mets! Pretty sweet Christmas present for any long-suffering Mets fan. And trust me, suffering is the right word. These guys both go to so many New York events you could probably even get them signed at some point.
Weird science fiction books for sale. Got any Kilgore Trout? I never heard of this Warehouse place. It's comic books and nerd stuff right? 2-1 they've got a weekly Magic The Gathering tournament. If any of you have actually been here please let us know in the comments. Your favorite FIPS blogger might want to check it out.
I know. You want to buy this. Hell, I want to buy it. So I'm going to talk us out of it. You don't have room for it. $100 for a Foosball table isn't a great deal. Foosball isn't even that good of a game. At a bar it's your least favorite thing to play. And in your own house? Forget it. There are too many fun things to do in our homes now. Technology has passed the foosball table by. If you want this table you might have just stepped out of a time machine from the 1950's. What was it like having only 3 channels on TV? Did you vote for Adlai Stevenson?

That funny picture up there in post number 1. I was writing up the poll and attaching the pic but, I guess the thread posts already before that is done.
I think that is one of the funnier TEOTWAWKI shots I ever have seen. Of course my wife would probably not think so but, it could just as well be the wife left standing...

mine would be 50' behind me with her sar2 waiting to perforate the fool who opened up on me!!!!!!
shoot your wife??? thats wiping out 50%of your firepower if you have no kids.
and if you dont have a wife you trust with a hd rifle at your back,WHY NOT?
April 25, 2005, 07:03 PM
That funny picture up there in post number 1. I was writing up the poll and attaching the pic but, I guess the thread posts already before that is done.
Yeah, when I first posted the poll wasn't even up yet.
BTW I am sorry, I don't really find that humorous.
Dave R
April 25, 2005, 07:06 PM
You need another option to your poll.
[ ] No way I would shoot. There's no one I'd rather have at my side, whether its TEOTWAWKI or not.
April 25, 2005, 07:11 PM
Now you gotta give me a break and loosen up at least a little bit, I was only posting this as a humorous relief. Not a serious kind of poll at all - just for fun.
As for it being the wife, well it doesn't necessarily have to be the wife although I guess the pic gives that idea. I just did not think my wife would find it funny being she would probably think it was the guy's wife. Me I still think it is hilarious. Of course that would be my luck if it was me. Not that I would do it mind you, just if I did it that would be my luck.

I can't say that there are not people who I consider to be misusing valuable oxygen for there are such people. However, in a TEOTWAWKI situtation, I wouldn't have time to fool with them. I'm single but if I were married; I would not stay married to someone whom I wanted to kill. Not for a single day.

Be first on the slopes this winter with early bird ski season deals at hotels near some of the best parks in the United States and Canada. Celebrate the grand opening of a ski-in/ski-out resort in Snowmass Village, stay steps from the gondolas at a 4-Diamond resort in Mammoth or head north to a 4-star boutique hotel in the heart of Whistler Village -- all for as much as 65% off.
Here's a full list of our early bird ski resort deals:
Aspen, Colo.: The Westin Snowmass Resort ... $119 Nov. 21 - Dec. 20 (65% off)
The resort offers ski-in/ski-out privileges to Snowmass, the largest of the four Aspen/Snowmass mountains. Despite its family-friendly reputation, the long, steep slopes, and gladed terrain are a magnet for extreme skiers. This year, Snowmass earned the No. 2 spot on Transworld Snowboarding Magazine's Top Parks List of 2012 by adding boarder-friendly elements such as a new Superpipe to its terrain park.
Be one of the first to lodge at the resort, reopening on Nov. 15 after a yearlong renovation. Ideally located in the center of Snowmass Village, the hotel is within walking distance of shopping, dining and nightlife.
Park City, Utah: Goldener Hirsch Inn ... $189 Dec. 7-20; +$20-$60 Jan. 2-16; March 31 - April 13, 2-night minimum (50% off)
This 4-Diamond ski-in/ski-out property is located at the Deer Valley Resort, named best overall ski resort in the country by Ski Magazine for five consecutive seasons and host of multiple events during the 2002 Salt Lake Olympic Winter Games. Stays at the chateau-style inn include a daily European buffet breakfast (reg. $50).
Deer Valley caters to an upscale audience with amenities such as free ski valets, fine dining and boutique shopping. Daily admission is capped and no snowboarding is allowed at the resort.
Mammoth, Calif.: The Westin Monarche Resort ... $179 Dec. 2-6 +$30 other November dates, incl. weekends (reg. $499)
Even when the surrounding desert is scorching hot, it's almost always ski season 8,000 feet up in Mammoth; some years stretching from November to the 4th of July. The tallest ski resort in California, Mammoth receives 400"+ of snowfall and 300 days of sunshine per year.
Rated as TripAdvisor's No. 1 hotel in Mammoth, this resort is steps from the express gondola and offers a heated pool, two hot tubs and an in-house ski and snowboard rental shop. All suites have a fireplace, kitchen and a flat-screen TV.
Elkhart Lake, Wisc.: The Osthoff Resort ... $89 through January (reg. $210)
Wisconsin's rugged landscape is ideal for both downhill and cross country skiing as well as terrain parks, popular with snowboarders. Little Switzerland, one of the first ski parks in the Midwest, will re-open this year after extensive renovations including a state-of-the-art snow-making machine, updated chairlifts and new Swiss Chalet.
The 4-Diamond lakeside retreat was voted No. 1 Midwest Resort by Conde Nast Traveler Readers Choice Awards. After working up an appetite on the slopes, whip up a masterpiece at the on-site culinary school.
Galena, Ill.: Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa ... $99 Sunday-Thursday through March; +$20 Friday-Saturday (40% off)
Voted one of the Best Midwest Small-Town Getaways by Midwest Living Magazine, Galena offers a charming backdrop for winter sports in the rolling hills. Nearby Chestnut Mountain is rated among the Top Ten Ski Resorts in the Midwest by Ski Magazine. Multiple half-mile runs, a 475-foot vertical drop and late-night skiing options separate this Midwest resort from the pack.
On-site, the sprawling resort offers cross-country skiing on its 6,800 acres incl. complimentary equipment rentals. Complimentary ice skate and sled rentals are also available.
Essex, Vt.: Essex Resort & Spa ... $399 2-night Sunday-Wednesday arrivals through January; +$100 Thursday-Saturday arrivals (45% off)
Nestled in the Green Mountains, this hotel provides easy access to Vermont's highest peaks and longest trails. Head to Smugglers' Notch, voted No. 1 Ski Resort for Family Programs in North America by Ski Magazine fourteen years in a row and home to Vermont's only triple black diamond, The Black Hole.
Follow up ski lessons for the kids with Chef In Training cooking classes (reg. $150 each) or 50-minute massages (reg. $110 each) for Mom and Dad at the 4-Diamond resort. On-site, find more outdoor fun for the whole family, including an ice skating pond and mountain bike rentals.
Shawnee, Pa.: Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort ... $179 two-night Sunday-Wednesday arrivals through Feb. 14; +$90 Thursday-Saturday arrivals (50% off)
Located in the Pocono Mountains, the budget-friendly resort is easily accessible from both Philadelphia and New York City and less than a 10-minute drive from Shawnee Mountain Ski Area. All of the Poconos ski areas offer night skiing until at least 10 pm.
Cradled by the Delaware River, the mountain resort is praised by Lonely Planet as "a beautifully natural getaway."

Located in Whistler Village, the 4-star hotel is within walking distance of outdoor activities such as skiing, snowboarding, dog sledding and sleigh rides.
Mont-Tremblant, Quebec: Hotel Quintessence ... $399 2-night Sunday-Thursday arrivals through Jan. 31; Bonus Friday arrivals: Nov. 23; Jan. 11 (reg. $720)
While this idyllic ski village may look like a fairy tale setting, the slopes are anything but child's play. Ninety-five runs criss-cross the mountain to make 49 miles of trail, helping the resort earn Ski Magazine's award for No. 1 Resort in Eastern North America fifteen years in a row.
The hotel is located within walking distance of Mont Tremblant Ski Resort and offers a free shuttle to and from the resort. Skiers with sore muscles will delight in unlimited spa facility access as well as $25 credit for spa treatments.

LG Nitro HD Review
0. phoneArena 06 Dec 2011, 06:15 posted on
The Nitro HD, as its name implies, has brought forward one very impressive asset – a 720x1280 HD display, to deliver a screen clarity that would be unmatched by its opponents. But having in mind its above-average price tag of $249.99 with a two-year contract, we think it'd still be worth it if we take a closer look at the LG Nitro HD, in order to determine if it's really capable of leap-frogging the competition...
This is a discussion for a review. To read the whole review, click here
1. medalaster01 (Posts: 42; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
LG Nitro HD though first hd from manufacturer it fails, because it is LG.
2. HTCiscool (Posts: 449; Member since: 16 Jul 2011)
Sadly so...
6. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
wait. The g2x was the first tegra phone.
Optimus 3d was the first 3d.
i guess there are a couple of phones worth praising LG for.
I like LG. not over rated much. I just hate their software so much.
7. Muhannad (Posts: 455; Member since: 20 Sep 2011)
That's why the LG G2x from T-Mobile was good. Why? It had Stock Android Gingerbread.
10. RORYREVOLUTION (Posts: 3108; Member since: 12 Jan 2010)
Exactly the G2x on stock gingerbread runs very smooth and lag free and it only is clocked at 1ghz dual core with only 512mb of ram. While you have phones like the rezound running 1.5ghz dual core and 1gb of ram and yet it can be sluggish at times. Sense UI is to blame for that just like LGs UI is as well. Put a stock android rom on this and it would be insanely fast and zippy.
25. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
I haven't used LG phones much, but if by "software" you mean their design, I think it's way nicer than Samsung's ugly TouchWiz design. I'm just shocked that their Optimus Sense is actually designed well and I never paid attention to LG phones.
3. HTCiscool (Posts: 449; Member since: 16 Jul 2011)
Well we may finally have an LG phone worth buying :D
I like he polished look but hate the sluggishness of the LG UI. They never really been great at software, ir hardware for that matter
Brand aside, this is a rather decent offering.
8. TalkingTechy (Posts: 97; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
Yeah it's pretty decent.
I like the 720p IPS LCD display and LTE, but the sluggish UI, so-so camera, and $249 price point are deal breakers.
And who KNOWS when this device will get Ice Cream Sandwich.
19. LGlady (Posts: 3; Member since: 09 Dec 2011)
The camera on the Nitro is way better than on any of the other compared devices so I don't know what you are complaining about
26. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
They might not have been great at software design, but to bring some balance Samsung's android software design is way uglier.
I agree this definitely looks like an LG phone worth buying, and primarily the "IPS" HD display that has me sold on it.
4. samda (Posts: 52; Member since: 28 Nov 2011)
The unit used by gsmarena team ran much smoother.. : /
5. jasongohjr (Posts: 75; Member since: 26 Sep 2011)
Laggy is a no no....
27. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
Yeah true but so is Galaxy S2 t-mobile version and HTC amaze are laggy and a lot of other high-end smartphones.
It's the "snapdragon" processor that doesn't have a great reputation, and also the maximum software to hardware optimization which most android powered devices lack. That's why iphones and recent windows phones, run by lower specs perform way more smoothly, because they're optimized well in that area.
9. nelnel21 (Posts: 1; Member since: 06 Dec 2011)
how does this get a 8.0 and the skyrocket get a 7.5 score. compare the pros vs the cons of both and i'm sure the majority would much rather have the skyrocket with a "bland design" than "sluggish performance" of the nitro. the only thing the nitro has over the skyrocket is it's hd screen.
11. rayjones09 (Posts: 149; Member since: 16 Dec 2010)
The skin on this phone looks horrible. Other than that and the uninteresting design, in terms of specs is a great competitor.
28. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
are you kidding me????? It's way nicer than Samsung galaxy whose TouchWiz is horribly designed.
12. metoyou (Posts: 279; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
LG phone always longer than other phone with the same or smaller display
LG 2X is a terrible phone if you ask me. I had it and sold it as soon as i can :(
13. Hunt3rj2 (Posts: 396; Member since: 11 Nov 2011)
Wrong OEM, released at the wrong time, with the wrong software, and the wrong hardware.
If Samsung released the Galaxy Nexus on AT&T right now you can be sure as hell, LTE or not, this would be the phone to get.
14. bambiheo85 (Posts: 2; Member since: 08 Dec 2011)
why there are so many people saying that this is the first hd phone =.= it's the galaxy note. And btw, note get 7 and this urly thing get 8 ???
29. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
definitely not the first HD phone, but the first phone with a 720p high quality "IPS" display.
15. Carlitos (Posts: 514; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
1.5 mbps on HSPA+ is pretty neat, considering the max you can get i believe is 2mbps.
I like the display, but the UI is kinda suckish, i remember how motoblur use to be just as worse or even worse, now its one of the best ones out there. LG needs to step it up, or stick into making TV's or dishwashers.
21. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
2mbps is not the max on HSPA+, especially for this phone.
16. eli577 (Posts: 84; Member since: 29 Jun 2010)
Everbody's complaining about lagging. This kind of lag, which is hardly noticable is acceptable to me. Btw the first HD screen thing: it's true that it's not the first HD screener, but the first one to use RGB matrix, which is really noticable. Just put this phone next to a Nexus and a Rezound. You'll see the difference.
I like the look of the phone, it's simple and cool, like the Nexus (and don't tell me the Nexus looks better :D)
30. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
Right on the bulls eye! I had a chance to experience Nexus and Rezound displays and wasn't too satisfied.
Nexus- matrix pixels still noticeable on small fonts such as when zooming out, and the screen's white color is dull, producing "yellower" or "bluer" color than normal.
Rezound- nice but lacks great contrast and nice viewing angles.

why does everyone hate lg so much?
18. BattleBrat (Posts: 1456; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
I don't know, I have an LG Vortex I play with, it is very smooth, impressive for the processor speed, Aren't any flagships for Verizon from LG, I wouldn't mind giving one a shot....
31. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
good question!
20. LGlady (Posts: 3; Member since: 09 Dec 2011)
All of you that hate LG not sure why exactly because all manufactures have their issues and you are just not mentioning those. Stop haten on LG.... Have any of you even played with the Nitro or are you all going by past devices or isolated issues? I can tell you from experience that this device is outstanding and deserves recognition! Go LG
22. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
I owned the lg C1500 and it got poor signal in the house - I would be willing to try another one, again.
23. louay_joumaa (Posts: 18; Member since: 09 Dec 2011)
i might trade up my htc rezound with that,much better screen but hate the software:P
32. vmaster (Posts: 31; Member since: 11 Dec 2011)
What exactly do you mean by "software"? The sense? If yes, I beg to differ, I think it's well designed at least compared to Samsungs TouchWiz.
24. MpowerSkills (Posts: 41; Member since: 19 Feb 2011)
After my experience with the Revolution, I can't see myself buying a LG device any time soon.
33. vanowm (Posts: 2; Member since: 23 Mar 2012)
Seeing 8 out of 10 score for this phone I now highly doubt the competence of this website.
The phone is a joke, totally. The only good about it is the screen, which no doubt is the best at the time it was released, well, to be fair, camera is also surprisingly good. That's about it.
The battery drains in 3-4 hours with no screen active if you use any kind of heavy data (not even LTE data), even voice chat via google talk or skype will kill the battery in no time.
The compass is defective, and seems to be hardware defection (google navigator when switched to walking spins your direction 360 degree). Email support refuse to admit it, blaming on apps I'm using (all of them???), however their official forum moderators admitted the problem.
If you own headset for iPhone - forget it, it will not work on Nitro, it will only work as headphone, mic most probably wont.
The UI is laggy, even after hard reset (aka wipe user data). After some usage the lag become so bad that sometimes you don't know did it register your tap or not, waiting 1-2 seconds and tapping again more often then not produce double tap.
The US version (actually Nitro HD) has so much room wasted around clock, could fit an extra icon, this is specifically noticeable if you switch to 24H mode.
The community development for the phone is totally dead, because any good coders know better then wasting their time on this piece of crap - can't blame them.
ICS update luckily will be released this summer, it's over 6 month after release? And that's for the phone that was designed for ICS!!! Wait to go LG!
If you are looking for a decent phone DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE! It's not worth a $100, let alone it's release price at $600.

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
Following yesterday's monster gains, stocks are taking a breather today. Roughly halfway through the trading session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) is lower by a marginal 6 points, or 0.04%.
While the typical fare of economic news may seem anticlimactic in the wake of the, dare I say, fiscal cliff debacle, it's nevertheless critical for understanding the market's daily movements.
The biggest news out today concerns the employment situation. On one hand, a report released this morning showed that private employers added an estimated 215,000 jobs in the month of December, beating the consensus forecast of 140,000, according to a Bloomberg survey of economists. On the other hand, data from the Labor Department forecast that more Americans filed for unemployment benefits for the week ended Dec. 29. The number of applications for jobless benefits jumped sequentially by 10,000 to 372,000, exceeding the 360,000 median estimate of economists.
In terms of individual stocks, a lot of the action in today's market is focused on the retail sector, as multiple stocks therein are making big moves. Shares of Family Dollar Stores (UNKNOWN: FDO.DL ) are down more than 11% after the company released a disappointing profit forecast for the second quarter of this year. The company now expects to earn no more than $1.28 a share in the quarter compared to the consensus estimate of $1.39 a share.
Shares of Limited Brands (NYSE: LB ) were also down considerably -- lower by 5.6% at the time of writing. The owner of the Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works chains saw same-store sales, a pivotal metric in the retail industry, grow less than expected in the month of December.
Alternatively, while Kohl's (NYSE: KSS ) also cut its fourth-quarter profit outlook due largely to deeper discounts, its shares are nevertheless up marginally thanks to a better-than-expected 3.4% increase in December same-store sales. According to Kohl's CEO, Kevin Mansell, "Sales came late in the holiday shopping season and, as a result, were at deeper discounts than planned."
And finally, shares of Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST ) are higher by an impressive 7.8%. The move comes after the discount retailer raised its fourth-quarter earnings-per-share outlook to $1.05 to $1.06 a share, compared to a previous range of $0.99 to $1.04 a share, and reported comparable-store sales of 6% for the month of December, handily beating the consensus estimate of 2.7%.

Someone is confused about "now make up a tenth of the jobs". If you follow to the original Propublica article they say it is actually 2.2% of private sector workers.

fullback, I have a little research project, please contact me at my ID at MSU.edu
(the project is just to satisfy my curiosity about how fast these high speed connections in Japan, etc are once you get out of that country)
I heard that one of the nice advances of the D510 Atom is that it is both dual core and hyperthreaded. So it shows up as 4 cores. Also Intel tried to cripple the previous version with a max of 2GB RAM, now that is up to 4GB.
If you are interested in playing, any card 8xxx series or above works. (Nvidia) For instance, this Macbook has 9400M and I was able to download the CUDA stuff and run the sample programs with no trouble. RE the double precision and # of shaders (or performance), it really depends on what your code uses and how fast you need/want it. Easiest to get something running and then see where the bottleneck is, and how much it costs to fix.
Mostly my GPU usage is for folding (folding.stanford.edu), I like the new boards because they run cooler. Just ordered a Gt240 for about $65 after rebate. An advantage is that the 240 doesn't need the extra power cable. I think it will fold proteins as fast as about ten Core2 2Ghz CPUs. The best card I have so far is a 250, it equals about 20 of those Core2's. Last summer I picked up some 9600gso cards for about $35, those have similar performance to the 240, but require the extra power plug.
I would like to do something like atlasfolding.com , but with much less $$. It looks like this new 480 is about 4X's the 295 performance for ~same cost. Sounds good to me.
PS - if you get some good GPGPU code running and need more performance, try to hook up with a
Any news on how much juice the Slim sucks? I heard it would be less.
And I assume that Stanford's Folding client still runs on them?
Knowledgeable people in the wireless ISP industry say whitespaces gear won't be available for at least another year. If it works out as expected, you would just buy it and use it, similar to today's wifi gear. It would require an Internet connection, to lookup the available channels database (daily) in your location.
As an alternative available today, you might consider the WISP 3650Mhz spectrum. The license for that costs $210. A brand I have looked at is Tranzeo, they sell Wimax gear in that frequency. (about $2000 for the AP, $250 for client radios). There are some exclusion zones that you aren't allowed to use 3650 within, so do a little research first.
And there is, of course, the usual wifi based gear. For example, see StarOS/Lucaya (my choice), or Mikrotik. And Motorola Canopy seems to work well at 900MHz.
Congratulations on being in the desert! You have a big advantage there with the lack of trees.
You're at Witt's End.

Food farm and jobs bill to grow local and regional markets
This week, the U.S. Senate acted in bipartisan spirit to approve the Agriculture Reform, Food and Jobs Act – a balanced, comprehensive bill that will drive continued growth in rural America. The House of Representatives now has another important opportunity to stand with rural America and pass their version of a bill.
People often call this the Farm Bill – but it's much more than that. This is a conservation bill. It's a trade promotion bill. It's an innovation bill. It's a jobs bill.
And it's a bill that will help continue a tremendous increase in markets for locally-grown foods. This includes creating more farmers markets, building additional regional food hubs and strengthening farm-to-institution programs.
In recent years, USDA has carried out a very successful Farmers Market Promotion Program that has increased the number of farmers markets by 67% since 2008. The Senate bill expands these efforts through its Farmers Market and Local Food Promotion Program.
This would continue to help producers sell their product directly to consumers through farmers markets, but it would also help farmers who are ready to scale up and sell to local grocery stores or other institutions. Regional food hubs, which connect farmers to these larger-volume markets, would have a new tool to expand and grow.
Passage of a Food, Farm and Jobs Bill would help farmers develop new value-added products for local or regional sale, creating new income opportunities in rural America. In recent years, the Value-Added Producer Grant Program has already helped more than 285 projects directly related to local markets for agriculture.
It would continue efforts to provide healthy, locally-grown food in schools – building on our work to serve 3,200 schools and 2 million students through USDA Farm-to-School projects across the country.
And it would provide investments in the infrastructure that locally-oriented producers can use to grow a better crop. This includes support for new cold storage facilities, hoop houses to extend the growing season, and access to credit to start or expand an operation.
The Food, Farm and Jobs Bill isn't just needed by America's farmers and ranchers – it's important for all of us who enjoy fresh, local foods at a farmers market. It's important to ensure our nation's youngsters have access to healthy, fresh foods. It's important to help create new economic opportunity in rural America. These are all good reasons why Congress must get a Food, Farm and Jobs Bill passed as swiftly as possible.

Sayer Auto Repair - Hermon, NY - Phone: (315) 347-2471
Oil and lubrication goes hand in hand. Oil plays an important function in lubrication purposes. Motor oil is used primarily for the lubrication of engines. The lubrication of moving parts of vehicles in Hermon is mainly done by the motor oil, also known as engine oil. Crude oil cannot be used as a lubricant as the thick petroleum is not at all suitable for greasing.
In Hermon motor oils are not only used for lubrication in vehicles like cars, trucks, etc, but also for lubrication purposes in non vehicles like lawn mowers, soil cultivators, generators, and similar other machines running on oil. Motor oils can be obtained from various stores in Hermon which deal in vehicles.

Every dermatologist has seen cases of dermatitis due to the application of butesin picrate ointment and from solutions of picric acid, and cases have been reported by Pusey1 and Jackson.2
In the case herein reported, a generalized exfoliative dermatitis developed following the local application of butesin picrate ointment to abrasions of the leg.
Butesin picrate is not a mixture of butesin and picric acid, but is a chemical combination (dinormalbutyl-p-aminobenzoate trinitrophenol) containing 63 per cent butesin and 37 per cent trinitrophenol (picric acid).
H. M., a white man, a laborer, aged 41, first seen on July 24, 1930, presented a generalized exfoliative dermatitis. He stated that six weeks previously he had received several abrasions on the left leg, which had become infected. The industrial physician used several ointments and finally applied butesin picrate ointment. There were burning and itching during the night,

One can write
and then both work the same. In the first case, the replacement of "C" by "binomial" is done at parsing time before evluator gets hold of the code, while in the second case, the replacement is done at run-time (evaluation).
So alias will be more efficient and more safe, I assume.
Is that all there is to it, or are there other more subtle and important reasons to use alias vs. := when one want to bind long name to smaller ones to save on typing.

FIT provides funding to LSSU faculty members for implementing innovative or best practices in teaching and learning. Funding comes from LSSU's Title III SIP Grant and thus FIT projects must help further the Title III grant's overall goal of enhancing student retention and graduation rates. In other words, the proposed project must help one or more faculty members develop and evaluate innovative approaches to teaching that are designed to increase student success.
Funding is available to support up to $3,000 per project. Projects that exceed this amount will be considered upon review of additional justification. Projects are typically one semester or one year in length. Funding is available for all five years of the Title III project (beginning in 2014).
Each semester, the Faculty Center will issue a call for proposals to the LSSU faculty. The following examples illustrate the type of projects appropriate for the FIT program:
Faculty members considering making an application for FIT funds are encouraged to contact the Faculty Center Co-Coordinators to discuss the idea.
Any interested faculty member or project team should submit the proposal to the Faculty Center Workgroup for consideration. The Faculty Center workgroup will select projects for recommendation to the Title III Steering Committee which makes the final decision for Title III expenditures. The workgroup or the Steering Committee may recommend that a proposal be revised and resubmitted.
Proposals will be awarded based on a ranking system using the following criteria:
Application of the practice with students in a specific setting (e.g., a particular class or experiential project).
Appropriate and effective use of the funds, including cost sharing.
Basis in evidence for the practice.
Extensibility/potential impact of the practice to other faculty members.
Statement of measurable outcomes and quality of the plan for evaluating those outcomes.
Sustainability of the practice beyond this funding.
Connection to the overall goal of improving student retention and graduation rates.
Past participation with FCT events.
Successful awardees will be expected to provide a written report to the Faculty Center regarding the implementation of the practice and results of the evaluation of the practice and to present the results in a Faculty Center seminar. In the past, awardees have presented in an informal brown bag session.
Complete and submit the following no later than [Deadline will be posted here for Fall 2015 mini-grants]:

In 2013, as part of a Title III proposal, the LSSU Faculty Center for Teaching was established with the goal of providing resources for faculty to improve teaching.

Eighty-four cases have been reported in the literature in which hyperthyroidism and myasthenia gravis have existed together. Weickhardt and Redmond have reviewed these cases and report 29 deaths in this group, showing the serious prognosis that exists when this relationship occurs—the prognosis appearing to be most grave when the hyperthyroidism develops in a patient with preexisting myasthenia gravis. The fact that, within the course of a few months in 1960, we were acquainted with 3 additional such cases has prompted this report. It has been well established that, when these 2 diseases coexist, control of the hyperthyroidism is the essential therapeutic problem, and we would like to suggest that perhaps such control may be more safely induced by the use of I,131 along with control of the myasthenia gravis, than by subtotal thyroidectomy.
Since the 2 diseases have so many findings common to both, the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis
