And I think we are in the same position with all this technology around us - for cheap. When we get the chance to make our lives more efficient [and thus giving us more time to research our family history] for cheap, why not take that chance?

- How to use your iOS device as your PC's second display by Grant Brunner from extremetech.com ~ A lot of folks have started using multiple monitors, but apparently you can use your iOS device as a second monitor, and Grant shares step-by-step instructions on how to set that configuration up. Hello, Productivity, eh?
- Cloud Printing Available for the New iPad Mini and iPad 4th Gen by Barbh from appcraver.com ~ I am not sharing this app just because the developer attended my alma mater, Texas A&M University, it's very handy, helpful, and efficient when you need to print something from your mobile device. And it's nice to know that even with device updates, the app developers are right there quickly updating their apps as well.
- Google's Chrome Remote Desktop Screen Sharing Service Comes Out Of Beta, Adds Real-Time Audio For Windows by Frederic Lardinois from techcrunch.com ~ I haven't time to play with this, but ohmigosh! I can see myself using this a lot when I'm coaching clients on tech and genealogy. Plus, they added some tools to this. Definitely read Frederic's post on the Chrome Remote Desktop tool coming out of beta. And you can thank me later. ;)

- Google Search app for iOS updated with new voice search functionality, iPhone 5 compatibility (video) by Donald Melanson from engadget.com ~ Okay. I haven't tried this out yet, but if it works as well as the video implies that it does, bonus! The comments on Donald's post look pretty good. *shrugs* But if it does work nicely, then how much more time can be saved by using it? I guess it depends on how much you use Google Search. [And I use it A LOT.]

What a wonderful way to start a surprise holiday, the vpriver cruise was brilliant and the guy gave so much info while we meandered down the river, lunch was great, vegaterian option was very tasty. Back on a lovely co for table bus, and Gordon was just a fountain of knowledge, the commentary never stopped and so interesting. I am now a concert to bus trips, as I have always thought they are for old people, but no, go out and do it a any age, you get to see everything for a greater night and learn as you go. Thank you once again Gordon for a truely memorable trip, and also for dropping us back to the hotel in Little La Trobe street.
A fantastic tour...our bus driver Ian was amazing...very knowledgable and friendly...highly recommend!!
Yarra River tour was good even a short tour.
City tour is amazing. Friendly driver.
Well worth money thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and the trip on the Yarra river
A lot of variety in this tour - many interesting things were packed into the afternoon. A very good introduction to Melbourne.
Must do while in Melbourne
The bus driver was great but the river cruise captain had a poor sound system.
Viewing the city from the Yarra River was really nice. The only problem with this part of the tour was the fact that you could not hear the boat captain talking and he didn't seem to care. The rest of the city tour on the bus was just fine. Gordon worked hard to tell us about the visited spots and to get us there timely despite traffic issues. He was also helpful in getting us back to the hotel
Our tour began at 12pm, the Yarra River Cruise was good, might be a bit too long on the river and maybe the cruise could be shortened a bit and its place a short stop at the Southbank. The cruise downriver on its conclusion gives the voyagers a glimpse of the Southbank riverside restaurants and the Crown Casino complex. It would've been nice to go landside for say 15 mins or so. Coming back to the cruise, the information that the skipper passed on is all good however he should minimize the ladies and gents and just get on with his presentation. The cruise is worth doing as it gives you an opportunity to learn about the Yarra River. The 2nd part of the tour was the City Tour and this is definitely worth doing. One place missed was the Queen Vic Market. I especially enjoyed the short stopovers at the Botonical Gardens, St.Kilda and Brighton Beach. The weather that day was good and our driver I think his name was Geoff did an outstanding job of driving safe and giving a lot of good information for each site. For the 1st time visitor, definitely worth your while to take this tour.
I think it is overpriced. It isn't really clear that it's a highlight tour.

Paul Kevin Turner (June 12, 1969 – March 24, 2016) was an American professional American football fullback. He played eight seasons in the National Football League for the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles.
Turner attended Prattville High School in Prattville, Alabama. Playing for the school's gridiron football team, Turner was a member of the 1984 Alabama state champions.[1] He enrolled at the University of Alabama, where he played college football for the Alabama Crimson Tide. With the Crimson Tide, Turner was regarded as a strong blocker, supporting running backs Siran Stacy and Bobby Humphrey. He also rushed for 4.7 yards (4.3 m) per carry and had 95 receptions.[2]
The New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL) selected him in the third round of the 1992 NFL draft. Turner played for New England for three seasons, and then played for five seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles.[3] Turner missed the majority of the 1995 season due to a knee injury. When he came back the following year, he blocked for Ricky Watters, who led the NFL in rushing yards. Turner won the Ed Block Courage Award for his persistence through the injury. He experienced two neck injuries in 1999, which ended his career. He finished his NFL career with 635 rushing yards (4.0 yards (3.7 m) per carry), 236 receptions for 2,015 yards, and 10 touchdowns.[2]
Personal life[edit]
Turner and his ex-wife had three children. They were divorced. Kevin married Allison Sanford in 2014.[4] His son Nolan will play college football for the Clemson Tigers of Clemson University.[3]
Health issues[edit]
In June 2010, Turner was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease.[5] He was involved in research that links chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) to ALS, and agreed to donate his brain and spinal cord when he died.[3] Turner served as a lead plaintiff in a major lawsuit filed by former players against the NFL regarding the health risks of concussions in American football.[4]
Turner's life with ALS was documented in the music video for the song "Journey On" by Ty Herndon. Turner and his two children appeared in the music video along with Herndon. In 2012, Jon Frankel of HBO worked with Turner to create the documentary film American Man,[6] describing Turner's life, especially his battle with ALS.
On March 24, 2016, Turner died as a result of ALS in his home in Vestavia Hills, Alabama.[3]

Your choice of dessert and a meet-and-greet with the chef wrap up the night and send you home with memories of a mouthwatering meal and meaningful experience.

Bob was there every step of the way. Always on top of everything. Great Real Estate agent, the best i have ever had. Very nice man, it was a pleasure to have Bob working for me. Recommend Bob to everyone who wants the best in real estate.
The management team was outstanding, especially our transaction coordinator(Danielle Davis) she let us know exactly what she needed, when and how soon, (good communication)!!
Thank you, Kevin McMillan and your team I'm in my new home. Wow and I can afford my monthy mortgage payments too. thank you for making my loan process a great !!! experience.
Tim Overshier and Nick should get awards! They should get employee of the year and a great bonus! I will forever remember this process! Thank You so much
Wendy was absolutely brilliant. I couldn't have asked for a better realtor. My wife and I had dealt with a realtor before Wendy and well, she left us with sour taste in our mouths. We even questioned the necessity of having a realtor in the first place. Then we met Wendy. She was so helpful and caring. She had so much enthusiasm and a lot to share. Wendy made our home buying process feel so easy. I would definitely recommend Wendy to anyone especially first time buyers.

Mr Schultz was always professional and courteous, there were times when he was hard to get in contact with but he would always return my calls. Over all I think he and Mr Schefler did a great job and I would not hesitate to use them again.
i worked with both Zach and Koleen Kaye for this loan and they were both wonderful, i would highly recommend them, and would be more than happy to do so.....i am very pleased with their performance....
I couldn't have asked for a better group of people they have exceeded all expectations
Underwriting could have been more of a positive experience but i guess they have their reasons for asking for certain things
Our experience with Veterans United was such a positive one from start to finish. From the prequalification to closing, it was so easy and we felt like we were in friendly and capable hands. Blake was an awesome loan officer, very nice!! Andrea was so helpful and made the steps we went through so smooth! I would definitely recommend both Veterans United and Blake to everyone we know!!
Lee Sattler is a great asset to the Veterans United team. He was a joy to deal with throughout our home buying experience.
I know you deal a lot with members of the Armed Forces from all branches of service. There should be a more thorough checklist for what is asked for from the very beginning. I feel it could speed the process a long a lot faster. There should be no reason it takes more than 2-3 weeks to close on a loan. I know you process a lot of loans but if a soldier is told up front what is needed than it is easier to get it all in one swoop versus telling them I need these 3 things things today for this stage of the loan process and then 2 days later tell them we need these 5 things for this stage and then say I know you sent this to us already but we need it again but I need you to explain it all in a letter. Especially for something as simple as an individual having alottments which all soldeirs have some type of an allotment. So going into the process knowing what is almost always asked for from active duty service members if you just created a checklist of things you already know the underwriters ask for and what you ask for then have the soldeir get those things done in the beginning. That way when you send it to the verification stage everything is there and then the underwriters are pleased when they recieve the packet, the loan officer is pleased and above all else the applicant is pleased. Thank you.
I would recommend this organization to anyone that needs to obtain a VA Loan. I recommend that Mr. Werner be given a raise for doing such an outstanding job from start to finish.
Your entire staff did an excellent job in guiding me through the mortgage maze. I would not hesitate in recommending you to any veteran seeking a mortgage! BZ
For the management team, we are very hands-on Consumers and we feel that allowing a homeowner to assist you in retrieving the documents needed rather than relying solely on third party companies such as Equifax for documents would make the process much quicker and less stressful. Third party companies kind of fit you in their schedule and nothing seems to be a rush for them. Sometimes the Homeowner requesting certain documents is handled much faster than third party companies. In the end, the Homeowner is the one who feels the pressure and stress of waiting while this process can take a long time.
VU got us better rates than any other lender in the market. Without them, our dream of having a home would have never come true. Our agent was friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable. He took care of everything and kept us fully informed throughout the process.
You guys are great to work with. I only wished we could have met all of you.
Thank You so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

1 Introduction
[2] Subducted seamounts have been suggested to act as asperities where large thrust earthquakes nucleate [Cloos, 1992; Husen et al., 2002; Hicks et al., 2012], and as barriers to inhibit coseismic rupture propagation [Kodaira et al., 2000; Mochizuki et al., 2008]. Such barrier effect is characterized by various conceptual models. For instance, subducted seamounts have been suggested to increase normal stress on the thrust interface [Scholz and Small, 1997], and such seamount-induced additionally frictional resistance could stop coseismic ruptures [Kodaira et al., 2000]. On the other hand, subducted seamounts have also been suggested to cause erosion of overriding plate and to deliver fluid-rich sediments into seismogenic zone [Bangs et al., 2006]. The presence of entrained fluid-rich sediments in the vicinity of a subducted seamount would reduce effective normal stress and lubricate the thrust interface, leading to little elastic strain accumulation and thus inhibiting coseismic ruptures [Mochizuki et al., 2008; Singh et al., 2011]. Furthermore, it was proposed that seamount subduction may create a complex fracture network in the overriding plate, making it unfavorable for the generation of large earthquakes [Wang and Bilek, 2011]. Thus, the specific mechanisms for subducted seamounts to stop coseismic ruptures could be complex and remain open for debate.
[3] Previous numerical studies have modeled a subducted seamount as a patch under elevated effective normal stress on planar subduction fault [Duan, 2012; Yang et al., 2012], showing that the subducted seamount could slow down or stop coseismic ruptures, acting as a barrier. If such a barrier is broken, it may produce large concentrated coseismic slip as suggested for the 2011 Tohoku Mw 9.0 earthquake [Simons et al., 2011; Duan, 2012]. However, these planar subduction zone models have not considered the geometrical irregularities caused by a subducted seamount. Hence, its barrier effect is only realized by increasing the local effective normal stress unless other heterogeneities in friction parameters are introduced. Is it possible for a seamount to stop ruptures even with a reduction in normal stress due to the presence of fluid-rich sediments as observations in the Japan Trench and Sumatra subduction zone imply [Bangs et al., 2006; Mochizuki et al., 2008; Singh et al., 2011]? In this study we take into account both the geometry and local normal stress changes on a megathrust fault due to a subducted seamount [Scholz and Small, 1997; Bangs et al., 2006]. Specifically, we investigate how a seamount geometrical high under either elevated or reduced normal stress would influence coseismic rupture propagation by performing numerical simulations of dynamic ruptures using a Computational Infrastructure for Geodynamics open-source finite element tool, PyLith (http://www.geodynamics.org/cig/software/pylith) [Aagaard et al., 2008]. PyLith has been tested in a series of Southern California Earthquake Center dynamic rupture benchmark verifications [Harris et al., 2009].

IBM will be pitted against the two most successful Jeopardy contestants in a test to see if the computer can search its database and find the correct answer faster, the TV Show announced.
"The iconic game show announced Tuesday that it will pit Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter, its all-time most successful contestants, against "Watson," an IBM computing system, in a series of battles next year," CNN reported.
The test of the computer is to understand the answer and find the right question in its database of information. It better be better than Google search results that often does not even list the right answer in the top few results.
"After four years, our scientific team believes that Watson is ready for this challenge based on its ability to rapidly comprehend what the 'Jeopardy!' clue is asking, analyze the information it has access to, come up with precise answers, and develop an accurate confidence in its response," David Ferrucci, the scientist leading the IBM Research team that has created Watson, said in a written release.
They could have just called me – I'm pretty good at Jeopardy.

This is what will happen if you don't finish your highschool kids. You'll be sent as cannon fodder to die for the big corps. 16-04-09 100.000 views! People should know that US foreign policy is based on how to best protect and increase American interest around the world. In order for it to do so, they use the patriot/ free/ protect America from terrorists/ maintaining freedom card . It is nothing more than using Euphemisms for waging war. You often hear these people talk about paying the price for their so-called 'protection'. Tell that to all the innocent people who died because of this. Americans need to start living in the real world. We all know that American citizens are by average, the most dumbed down people of the world. They should start using a more critical view of what their country is doing to other countries and stop this fantasie: "they are jealous of our freedom" bull. Atleast with Obama things will change for the better and Americans will wise up... I hope.

"Professor Nancy Kim's new book, Wrap Contracts: Foundations and Ramifications, is essential reading for academics, judges, and lawyers interested in the nature, functions, and enforcement of Internet contracts. Wrap Contracts is a comprehensive, yet accessible treatment of the formation of contracts in the age of digital technology, of the behavior of businesses and consumers in this new environment, and of the limitations of current doctrine to administer these contracts. The book also contributes useful ideas about changes in the law that could better and more fairly facilitate electronic contracting. Wrap Contracts is also valuable for its vast collection and discussion of pertinent cases and secondary sources."
Robert A. Hillman, Edwin H. Woodruff Professor of Law, Cornell University Law School
"I recommend picking up a copy; the author both synthesizes and meaningfully extends her important thinking on the evolving role of contracts in a digital world. The sophisticated practitioner, too, has something to gain, particularly from later parts of the book where Kim explores the origins and strategic uses of wrap contracts and makes recommendations that attorneys may one day encounter in a court opinion or Federal Trade Commission complaint."
Ryan Calo on ContractsProf Blog, Assistant Professor, University of Washington School of Law, and Faculty Director, Tech Policy Lab, University of Washington
"Kim does a terrific job categorizing and describing the various types of wrap contracts. Wrap Contracts forcibly describes how businesses, the courts, and technology have created a new world for contracting parties and how fundamental contract formation principles have been skewed to favor the drafting party. Reading Wrap Contracts was enjoyable because it made me re-visit some of the concepts relating to contract law that I putatively learned during my first year of law school and for the bar exam. I highly recommend this book to anyone who either drafts or litigates contracts. It is provocative, thoroughly researched with terrific references, and very stimulating." -Frederic H. Marienthal, Partner at Kutak Rock LLP (The Colorado Lawyer)

Qualcomm (QCOM) is slated to report 2Q 2012 earnings after the close on Wednesday, April 17. The results are expected to come through at 4:00 p.m. EST, with a conference call slated to follow at 4:30 p.m. Sympathy Plays: NOK BRCM TXN.
Outliers and Strategy
Key Measures:
- Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share: For the 2Q 2012 period, Qualcomm previously indicated it expects Non-GAAP EPS of $0.91 to $0.97. Guidance tends to be conservative and actual results tend to come in at the high end of forecasts.
- Revenues: Qualcomm said in January it expects 2Q revenue of $4.60 billion to $5.00 billion, an increase of 19% to 29% Y/Y.
Adjusted EPS Guidance and Revenue Guidance (3Q 2012): Guidance for the next quarter will be watched closely, given that results for the 4Q period are largely priced into the shares. The estimates are for adjusted EPS of $0.89 on revenue of $4.80 billion. (Source: Yahoo Finance)
At 23.92x trailing earnings, Qualcomm is trading at a discount to the 5-year average (24.2), but just 15.9x forward estimated profits. With an expected 5-year earnings growth rate of nearly 15%, the FWD PEG ratio is nearly 1.0.
Over the past several quarters, Qualcomm has benefited from its relationship with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), supplying chips for the popular iPhone device. In addition, the majority of Android devices run on Qualcomm chipsets.
Recent News
04/12: Credit Suisse raised its price target on Qualcomm from $70 to $80 and increased FY2012 and FY2013 EPS estimates, according to a report on Benzinga.com. The firm attributed the outlook to Qualcomm's position in the smart phone market entering 2012.
04/10: UBS reiterated a Buy rating and raised the price target on Qualcomm from $75 to $80, according to a post on StreetInsider.com. The positive outlook was based on a ramp-up in LTE adoption during the second half of the year. The firm also raised its earnings forecasts for FY2012 and FY2013.
04/03: Qualcomm announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per common share. The company boosted the dividend in early March by 16%. (The yield is now 1.51%).
03/06: Qualcomm announced a new $4.0 billion stock repurchase program to replace the prior $3.0 billion stock repurchase program, which had $948 million of repurchase authority remaining, net of put options outstanding.
Technical Review
Qualcomm shares are up more than 20% YTD, en route to a recent 52-week high of $68 on March 27. In the event of a very strong earnings release, that will be the initial resistance area. Despite the enthusiasm headed into the upcoming release, Qualcomm recently broke an uptrend bounce back to late December and took out the 20-Day SMA near $67.25. Shares are currently hovering above support near $66 - a level going back to mid-March. If earnings fail to meet the high end of the estimate range, there is downside risk toward the 50-day SMA at $64.50, with further downside risk to $62.00. (Chart courtesy of StockCharts.com)
Qualcomm shares have been on an impressive run over the past several months, given its footprint in the smart phone market and supplier agreements with the likes of Apple and Google (NASDAQ:GOOG). But with the shares currently trading near a 12-year high and sell-side sentiment heavily bullish, Qualcomm shares are vulnerable to any missteps. Over the past week, the shares broke an uptrend that extends back to this past December. But with valuation at reasonable levels, a solid dividend yield, a recently increased buyback program and optimistic forecasts for smart phone and tablet sales into 2012, the market is looking for Qualcomm to deliver a stellar quarter and increased outlook for the balance of 2012.

Also, intent matters when determining guilt.
I suggest you try, "Officer, I didn't see the sign" the next time you're pulled over for running a stop sign.
The traffic code in most cases specifically excludes intent from consideration, but that's an anomalous area in the law. Throughout very nearly all of criminal law, intent is crucial to determining guilt. So while you're correct that "Officer, I didn't see the sign" won't do you any good, your argument is a red herring that demonstrates significant lack of knowledge of criminal law. (It's also worth noting that most traffic violations aren't technically crimes in most jurisdictions, they're civil infractions which is why you may be assessed a fine but cannot be arrested. There are exceptions for very serious violations, including extremely high rates of speed.)
