Apple engaging in shady deal with patent troll?
0. phoneArena 13 Dec 2011, 10:56 posted on
Apple seems to be supporting a patent troll, who is now suing the rest of the mobile phone arena with patents that Apple transferred to them behind closed doors...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Another reason I don't care for Apple's products. Not feeding my money into this monster to crash companies like their trying to do. I guess they don't like competition.

Apple LOVES competition. There's no greater joy than overtaking RIM or watching MicroSoft self implode with its Zune MP3 line. Or watching the initial Android 7" tablets become DOA or how BN or Amazon is currently running circles around Android OEMs as they discount their tablets by hundreds of dollars off the inflated MSRP. It's fun watching Samsung flop with their Galaxy Player MP3 line (didn't Samsung learn from MS' mistakes...hmmm).
Apple's competitors lose because Apple competes in software and uses their expertise in software along with an integrated hardware to win customers.

Wow, how can you read that article and cheer about it. The whole article screams unethical!!! Boo to you ardent1, I'd give you 10 more thumbs down if it would let me.
18. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
Because I am not cheering about the article. I am simply pointing out zayzay miss the point on hoe Apple loves to compete by bring out great consumer electronic products.

Ardent I've thought this for awhile but that post just confirmed that you are a total moron.
15. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
Sarcasm is typically lost on the android fanboys who have one track mind.
Android fanboys have no problem when HTC tries to buy a company solely sue Apple. Or how Google "gave" HTC access to patents so HTC can further sue Apple. Google, HTC et al engage in patent trolling BUT THAT OKAY in android fanboys mindsets.
All I am doing is call a spade a spade. When faced with facts that highlight the evil-doings of the android camp, the android fanboys engage in their typical flames.
20. ZayZay (Posts: 571; Member since: 26 Feb 2011)
I don't think this is an android fanboy issue. I think your automatically assuming it is. Sounds like your one track mind (which you are calling everyone out on) to attack android users didn't derail. People are simply saying this is ridiculous for Apple to try and shut down all competition. No where in the first comment you replied to did it say android. I DON"T EVEN OWN AN ANDROID.
77. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
Zayzay, LEARN TO READ, the android fanboy comment was directed at iamcc, jamrockjones et al who ARE CONFIRMED android fanboys.
I am sticking the FACTS when you stated "[Apple] don't like competition." and provided you numerous examples. So zayzay, why didn't you rebutt my argument? Does the cat have your tongue.
The FACT is android fanboys (in reference to iamcc) HATE it when the truth exposed on how Google and HTC engage in patent trolling but that's okay. It simply a double standard.
87. ZayZay (Posts: 571; Member since: 26 Feb 2011)
The #1 patent issues come from Apple. This is another reason not to like them.
I think your reading to far into this and trying to over prove your right. Which in this case. NO ONE IS RIGHT.
See I can talk in all caps too! Hurray for me.

Hello Taco
again I think you are getting things wrong:
"Android fanboys have no problem when HTC tries to buy a company solely sue Apple. Or how Google "gave" HTC access to patents so HTC can further sue Apple. Google, HTC et al engage in patent trolling BUT THAT OKAY in android fanboys mindsets."
-HTC Android pones could be banned from selling what HTC did was simply try to scale to an even position SO their merchandise does not get banned from sales, of both end up holding dangerous win cases and entering an AGREEMENT witch cant be done when they are on a bad position
-Google Gave HTC patents to increase their chances if becoming even on the field, just showing that they CARE for their partners and ecosystem avoiding them from taking
-Google bought Motorola to beef up its arsenal in patent and PROTECT their system
80. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
protozeloz, thanks for the flame. Thanks again for showing what android fanboy do best -- they flame away as they avoid the debate.
Google and HTC colluded in a patent trolling behavior. Spin it anyway you want -- it is still patent trolling.
67. denney (Posts: 98; Member since: 20 Oct 2011)
How many times did HTC sue Apple before Apple sued HTC?
If you were punched in the face at random no one would blame you for fighting back.
11. ZayZay (Posts: 571; Member since: 26 Feb 2011)
From the looks of this article they don't like competition. They want everyone to shut down and everyone to have an apple product. How is that competition? Putting patents on a rectangle tablet? You have to be kidding me. Apple is a joke with these patents.
16. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
Zayzay - do you even know the difference between a "design" patent and a "utility" patent. My patent is a utility patent.
What stopped other people or companies from filing that design patent in the first place. It's fair game and the johnny came too late are crying sour grapes! Apple paid Nokia for Nokia's technology and that's how the system is supposed to work!!
22. ZayZay (Posts: 571; Member since: 26 Feb 2011)
You putting everyone out to be a retard compared to your massive brain. You are the definition of Pedantic.
23. SuperAndroidEvo (Posts: 4833; Member since: 15 Apr 2011)
No Apple was made to pay Nokia, there is a BIG difference. Apple stole Nokia's patents & got caught.
It was never like what you are implying. Apple lost in court & thus it needed to pay Nokia royalties.
14. EclipseGSX (Posts: 1717; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
its not really competition is everything "flops" according to you and your flawed logic
17. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
If you compete and 'flop"; the flop is reflective of said competition. It's called a flop because it couldn't compete.
26. hepresearch (unregistered)
... and if it doesn't flop, Apple will sue it out of existence.
38. EclipseGSX (Posts: 1717; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
seriously if it loved competition it wouldnt sue or even make patents because its products are so godlike they sell themselves
66. ledbetterp3 (Posts: 467; Member since: 31 Aug 2011)
@ardent1 stfu.

Apple loves competition so much that there will be no competition left when Apple is done with the market.
78. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
That is correct, when a company can't compete, it's not competition.
It's not Apple's fault for setting the bar so high with the iPad that the android OEMs brought out 7" tablets with froyo that turned out to be DOA.
82. hepresearch (unregistered)
When there is no one left to compete against, then there is no competition... goofball!
"Apple LOVES competition" - no, not really. There really is no competition now, and when anything that does sell comes around they sue the living crap out of it, so how can they love competition? there is no competition left to love... Apple is making sure of that.
83. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
"when anything that does sell comes around they sue the living crap out of it,"
What another fine hyperbole (an extreme exaggeration) if there ever was one. Let's stick to facts.
Did Apple sue Sony over the Sony tablets? No
Did Apple sue HTC over the flyer? No
Did Apple sue Asus over the transformer? No.
I can go on and on.
Let's sticks to facts as opposed to facists views by the android camp.
88. hepresearch (unregistered)
- Apple HAS NOW sued, whether directly or via their proxy troll, every company that designs mobile devices... except for themselves.
- Steve Jobs declared aloud that Apple will go to figurative "thermonuclear" war with Google's Android and ALL OEM's that use it on their devices.
- Apple has not bothered to sue Microsoft over WP7.
You think I'm dealing in hyperbole? This coming from the guy who says that Apple LOVES competition, and yet also says that no one can compete with Apple, and that Apple is suing all these OEM's because... they all make crappy phones?
I can hear it now... "Apple is doing the world a huge favor by suing the crap out of... the crap!"
Fascist? In the Android camp? I resemble neither one of those remarks. I will soon happily be the subject of a fascist company when I upgrade to the iPhone 3GS... the iPhone works best for my current needs (which are few, and involve nothing like the modding and mobile coding I used to do) and is almost free on-contract ($0.99 is so close it is hardly debatable). Yes, I know I will be selling my soul, but I don't really care at this point... I have already been reduced to serfdom by life's circumstances, and I am now sufficiently humbled to live life in the role which has been hopelessly imposed upon me.
48. RazaAsad (Posts: 100; Member since: 24 Nov 2011)
I do not wonder about your comment. One must have such mentality to be an apple fan.
79. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
Razasad, thanks for the flame. The question remains, can you add something intelligent to the discussion?
40. anywherehome (Posts: 971; Member since: 13 Dec 2011)
yes, they are not able to compete so they sue like a little baby
63. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
Didn't Google and Motorola do something similar? Just asking.
64. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Yes! Google bought Motorola and it's patents...gave 3 to HTC, to DEFEND themselves and the Android platform from Apple's BS lawsuit. The difference is Apple is using this as an offensive strategy to bring down what appears to be every other platform that it competes with.
81. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
"Yes! Google bought Motorola and it's patents...gave 3 to HTC"
It's still considered patent trolling. However, it's understood by the android camp that is acceptable patent trolling behavior under the guise of "defense". People aren't being fooled execpt the typical android camp.
90. hepresearch (unregistered)
Ah... but there IS a big difference! There is a difference between a company getting three patents from a bigger company so that they can protect themselves, and a company getting three patents from a bigger company so that they can attack their opponent and rip them up...
HTC is like a master Jedi with a light-sabre that has been handed to them by Google and Motorola... Apple is like the young padowan-learner who has just received their first light-sabre from the patent office, and they decide they want to use it to cut up everybody else just for fun. Hopefully, Apple's light-sabre is short and tiny, and they will go around slashing at everybody just to have HTC wisely wave the big MOTO light-sabre to knock the little thing out of the dumb kid's hand.
It is all about intent. If you get a patent, and you are all about the idea of going and slashing up everyone around you, then you are doing no one any favors. If you get a patent, and you are just out there to deflect the slasher from hurting you or other friendlies out there, then that seems fairly reasonable to me.
Apple has decided to go and slash everyone up. I hope that Apple's light-sabre is not as big as anyone else's, or else everyone is in big trouble...
71. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
What is good for Google is good for Apple. Google lost in its bid to acquire Nortel's patents and cried like a little baby. So what does Google do, it engages in patent trolling with HTC.
Yes, the android camp HATE when these facts are disclosed.
56. cheetah2k (Posts: 1576; Member since: 16 Jan 2011)
Looks like Apple are "trying" to resurrect some company image.
I guess they think that by transferring the patent trolling to another company will eliminate Apples name from the headlines and restore faith in the Apple brand..
Do they really think we're that stupid?
The "patent troll" image must really be damaging them for Apple to consider such a move

Im sure it really is not.
65. andro. (Posts: 1998; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
The worst part is ifans are either so under apples mind control or so oblivious to reason that they little drool the cash over to apple with out realizing it
2. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Making it even harder to respect Apple! They can't compete with Android, it obvious to everyone and there is simply no defending this kind of action. (I'm sure the loyal iOS fans will do it anyway). I have been a fan of Apple computers for years but this makes me want to look at other options for my next computer. I can't support this kind of behavior.
10. SuperAndroidEvo (Posts: 4833; Member since: 15 Apr 2011)
This is so Apple's nature. They are the most bogus & desperate company ever. Android is dominating & instead of making better products Apple is lazy & takes the easy way out. Apple's solution sue everyone and their mothers.
Apple's iPhone was originally made through stolen patents from many companies most notably Nokia. That is why Apple pays Nokia royalties from every iPhone sold. Now if you take that into consideration, why is Apple aloud to have any patents is all? The patents Apple has now are a direct result of the patents they stole to make the iPhone in the first place. So why or how is Apple awarded those patents?
To me the system is warped & f'ed up. If Apple dishes money then companies like Digitude Innovations have no problem doing all the dirty work. Apple can manipulate or control any company with its cash flow. To me I have lost respect for Apple since 2009 & this is further proof that Apple doesn't care about anything but itself. Apple will sue everyone because they just can't compete in this cut throat market.
The iPhone 4S is a weak & sad product that can't compete with the likes of Android (Samsung Galaxy Nexus) & even the soon to be released Windows Phone 8 devices. Like Whateverman said, I can't support this kind of behavior from Apple. Apple is a scared company that has been reduced to suing instead of innovating.
27. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
So the fact that Google also did it is ok?
33. robinrisk (unregistered)
Google did what?
Google used code that was open source, that belonged to a company that got acquired and stopped being open source.
They had the technology implemented before it got closed.
34. SuperAndroidEvo (Posts: 4833; Member since: 15 Apr 2011)
Google did what? Can you please elaborate?
41. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
Sure, they hand off patents to help in lawsuits against Apple. Most recently immediately following the acquisition of Motorola they gave patents to HTC to help fight Apple.
46. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
To DEFEND against and add LEVERAGE against Apple's lawsuits against every Android OEM it feels threatened by.
Try again.
49. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
I don't need to. This was a lawsuit between Apple and HTC. Not every Android OEM. Again, I feel Apple is definitely in the wrong here, but Google's nose is not so clean.
57. gotphone (Posts: 10; Member since: 30 Jun 2011)
obviously hallucinating
54. SuperAndroidEvo (Posts: 4833; Member since: 15 Apr 2011)
Well just so you know Google is helping Android not HTC. HTC happens to make Android phones. Since HTC is a huge threat to Apple with its Android phone sales, Apple needs to sue them to slow them down. What Google did is defend Android against Apple's BS tactics.
Google was forced to do that because Apple is flooding the mobile industry with lawsuits.
How you think it's the same thing that Apple is doing is beyond me. It seems to me that your grasp on the subject is mediocre at best.
Again like Whateverman said "Try again".
72. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
It's a double standard. It's okay for Google and the android camp turns a blind eye. When Apple is SUSPECTED of the same Google play, they becomes a lynch mob.
12. Dmann (Posts: 165; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Feel the same here. I used to be a defender of a good product, regardless of brand. But Apple is making it harder to recommend Macbooks or iPads to other people.
3. MalakiMills (Posts: 257; Member since: 15 Jun 2010)
A little surprised by this, we already knew that they were a low company for the lawsuits they already placed. And then to take it to this level is a little to much for me. But then again I never bought apple products in the first place.
73. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
You are quick to judge before the facts are disclosed. In contrast, Google and HTC engaged in blatant patent trolling in the open.
5. jamrockjones (Posts: 345; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
This is exactly why I don't like Apple. I like their products, I think they are well made, but I can't stand the way they do business. I don't own a single Apple product and I download my music from every other source before I use iTunes, and this is why. I don't want them to have my business because I hate the way that they run the company.
7. LewsTherin006 (Posts: 140; Member since: 18 Nov 2011)
If this is true it seems that Apple is getting a bit desperate to keep its top spot. At least we know they are feeling the heat.
9. Joker (Posts: 24; Member since: 07 Dec 2011)
Rotten Apple's new motto: What's a better way to screw your competition? Sue them!
13. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
I completely disagree with Apple's tactics here, however let's not act like Google has not done this as well. They have fed patents to other companies to go against Apple. It's wrong no matter who does it.
19. Dmann (Posts: 165; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Yes, We can´t forget that many, if not all companys have some rottens.
Samsung had that CEO´s tax evasion problem.
We must be careful not to be hypocrites, after all, what all companys care about is money.
The main question would be, is Apple worse than the others?
21. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
Well, I suspect that the majority of people that post here don't really fully understand business or know all to much other than what they read on the tech sites. So it probably will just be a matter of opinion. Android enthusiast will say yes and Apple enthusiast will say no.
29. tacohunter (Posts: 408; Member since: 06 Nov 2011)
35. robinrisk (unregistered)
Actually, when you are defending yourself things are better justified.
Google transfereed those patents so other companies could either defend themselves in court or sue and get leverage on previous patents.
Stupid patents have not been used before apple to sue and get money, much less ban the competetition.
36. Hallucinator (Posts: 357; Member since: 24 May 2010)
Spoken like a true Blind Android fanatic. It's always justified by you guys when it's Google doing the dirty. It makes you look hypocritical and ignorant.

I bought my car a few months ago and wanted to write this review after I experienced all levels of service at this dealership. From the moment I reached out to William to buy my new car I had nothing but the best service. I told him what I was looking for and he found it for me in a timely manner. The whole transition was very smooth. He was extremely helpful and really went out of his way to make...
Had the pleasure of completing a super smooth sale with Tony Lawrence and Kenny Shaw. Initially when I was shopping around I contacted other dealers to see who could offer me the best price. I have a very busy schedule and I'm the type to close on solid deals and not waste my time. There was another dealer that offer me a way better deal after closing, but it's okay the customer service here is TOP...
I bought my new Toyota Corolla on 13th August and I want to say I had a great experience dealing with Chris Jones. He is a professional, very nice person and very polite. He understood what I needed and he never tried to influence or to change my decision, or to add more stuffs to rise up the price of the car. He answered to all my questions and he was patient, he never tried to push me to take a decision....

[[BecauseDestinySaysSo In accordance with the prophecy]], the children, helped by Aslan (Turkish for "[[MeaningfulName Lion]]"), defeat her, and are jointly crowned as the four Kings and Queens of Narnia. [[DistantFinale After fourteen years]], the children accidentally return through the wardrobe, reverting to childhood.The action of ''TheHorseAndHisBoy'' takes place during their reign.----!This book provides examples of:* AlwaysChaoticEvil: [[OurDwarvesAreDifferent Dwarfs]], Wolves, Minotaurs, Hags, Harpies, Giants and all the other races that are loyal to the witch initially appear this way, but it's later shown a good portion of them do have Good members, as seen by dwarfs, a giant, and even wolves rescued from the Witch's castle, who later fight for Aslan. Later books and films show many good Narnian dwarves, giants, and minotaurs. Indeed, if you only read those books you'd think the dwarfs are just another of the many AlwaysLawfulGood races in Narnia, with only a few bad apples. [[spoiler:Until the revolt of a large amount of them in ''Literature/TheLastBattle''.]] However, in the only other appearance of a Hag and a Werewolf, in ''Literature/PrinceCaspian'', it's implied that they really are AlwaysChaoticEvil.* AnIcePerson: The White Witch has ice powers. She froze all of Narnia, you know.* ArbitrarySkepticism: Lucy, when she first comes to Narnia, wonders why there's a street light in the middle of the forest... a forest she discovered inside of a wardrobe.* AsYouKnow: Done in an aside from the narrative, as Lewis notes several times that his readers all know better than to shut themselves into a wardrobe. This was probably done to avoid inspiring kids to lock themselves in by mistake. See also DontTryThisAtHome. Ironically, one of the outakes from the 2005 film shows the actor of Edmund shutting the door behind him as he climbs into the wardrobe...and demonstrating why Lewis was careful to emphasise the warning against doing that.* AuthorAvatar: People who know about Lewis's life story will recognise definite parallels between him and the grumpy professor the children go to stay with.* AwesomeMomentOfCrowning: For all four Pevensies at the end. Aslan himself is there.* BeingEvilSucks: This realization spurs Edmund to make his HeelFaceTurn.* BigBad: Jadis is the evil queen causing all the problems here, from the winter to the oppression. * BigBrotherBully: Edmund is this to Lucy. The film plays this up between Peter and Edmund too.* BigGood: Aslan is TheParagon of goodness in this world. The kids are the main characters, but he is the one who saves the day. This is lampshaded by the Beavers.* BlitzEvacuees: The Pevensie children* BreakTheHaughty: Edmund starts off arrogant and becomes more so under the witch's influence. Then she decides he's more useful as a prisoner.* CaptainObvious: See DeadpanSnarker below.* CreepySouvenir: The whole ''garden'' of people/animals the White Witch has turned into stone. In the Walden Media film version, she also wears Aslan's shaved-off mane into battle.* CrystalDragonJesus: Aslan, AKA "Lion Jesus". He's the son of "The Emperor Across the Sea" and enacts Christ's Passion to save a sinner.* DarkActionGirl: The White Witch is usually an EvilSorcerer but she can join close combat too. She certainly participates in the battle at Beruna. The animated film and TV series have her as a LadyOfBlackMagic while the live action film shows her actively fighting.* DisneyDeath: Edmund gets stabbed by Jadis. He's definitely near death until Lucy's healing cordial revives him.* DisneyVillainDeath: Averted in the book and most adaptations - Aslan crushes [[spoiler: Jadis]] by jumping on her (in the film it's implied he ''eats'' her). But in the BBC TV series, Aslan roars and causes her to fall off a wall.* DistinguishedGentlemansPipe: Professor Kirke.* DontTryThisAtHome: Every time someone climbs into the wardrobe, to the point where one begins to wonder if it's an inside joke or a RunningGag.* DreamingOfAWhiteChristmas: Averted in that in Narnia, it is always winter and never Christmas and when [[spoiler:Christmas finally does come, it heralds a thaw]].* DubNameChange: Maugrim, the wolf servant of the White Witch, had his name changed to Fenris Ulf in earlier American editions (which also changed Peter's first title from "Wolfsbane" to "Fenrisbane"). Then they went back to using Maugrim.* EndlessWinter: The White Witch casts a spell on Narnia so that it is always winter but never Christmas. * EvilAlbino: The White Witch is deathly pale. It's implied this is because she's not human; only looks the part.** A later book in the series (a prequel) reveals that this is the result of her eating from the fruit of a magical tree she's picked herself. The fruit heals those it's given to by others in compassion, but when selfishly consumed with the intent of gaining power or immortality has the side effect of turning the eater snow pale.* EvilIsDeathlyCold: The White Witch, and her effects on the Narnian environment, are all cold, and evil.* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler: Aslan did it knowing exactly what would happen if he were to die. [[LoopholeAbuse In more than one way]]]].* FaceDoodling: Edmund, during his nasty period, rather tackily scribbles a mustache and glasses on a lion that's been turned to stone, telling himself it must be Aslan himself, TakenForGranite.* FaeriesDontBelieveInHumansEither: Tumnus the faun reacts this way to Lucy the first time he meets her, and owns a book called ''Is Man a Myth?''* FauxActionGirl: ** Susan. She's an archer, and at least in the film, a good one. Yet she's never part of any of the battle scenes, being limited to calling for Peter's help and shooting one stray dwarf in the ending.** The White Witch becomes one in the BBC adaptations. She never does any fighting herself, save for using her wand to turn a few people to stone. And she runs away when Aslan returns.* FirstNameBasis: We only find out the children's last name in later books (it's "Pevensie").* FollowTheWhiteRabbit: ** A robin leads the children to Mr. Beaver.** Inverted later when they are hunting for a stag, and it leads them back to the gate to the normal world. * FoodChains: See GRatedDrug below.* TheFriendsWhoNeverHang: A variation. Susan and Edmund barely interact in the stories. They're the only two Pevensies not to get any scenes alone together.* FurryConfusion: The BBC Series has [[PettingZooPeople people in animal costumes]], actual animals and animated creatures all on the screen at once. At one point, Maugrim even appears to shapeshift into a regular wolf, though he's supposed to be a regular wolf anyways.* GRatedDrug: The White Witch's Turkish Delight. WordOfGod states it's an [[EvilTastesGood analogue for sin]].* GenderEqualEnsemble: Two boys (Peter and Edmund) and two girls (Susan and Lucy).* GenreSavvy: All the Pevensies, seeing as they're children who are pretty familiar with fairytales, and (rightly) assume a fairytale world will work according to fairytale rules. For example, their decision to follow the robin is based on Peter's observation that robins are [[AlwaysLawfulGood always good birds in books]].* GoodAnimalsEvilAnimals: The book splits talking beasts more or less along the standard lines between those on the side of the Witch and those on the side of Aslan. This doesn't show up so much in the rest of the series when Narnia was united, but "evil" animals don't show up much at all then.* GrimUpNorth: It's grim everywhere in Narnia due to the Hundred Year Winter, but particularly near the Witch's Castle in the north.* HeelFaceTurn: ** Edmund, for the second half, when he realizes that BeingEvilSucks and Aslan saves him.** Mr. Tumnus, after his HeelRealization while in the company of Lucy.* HonorBeforeReason: It's said that Lucy was tempted to say she just made up the story of the wardrobe just so she could happily play with her siblings again. But as a very truthful girl, she's unable to bring herself to lie.* IcePalace: The Witch's castle was created by her own power.* InterdimensionalTravelDevice: The wardrobe allows travel between Earth and Narnia -- sometimes.* ItOnlyWorksOnce: The White Witch's justification to Edmund for why she cannot give him more Turkish Delight in the sleigh. The wardrobe is a straighter example. Although it transports the children to Narnia three times in the story, Professor Kirke says it won't work again afterwards.* ItWasAGift: Father Christmas's gifts to the Pevensies.* {{Jerkass}}: Edmund is rude, arrogant and sells out for candy.** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Mellows out into this at the end.* KidHeroAllGrownUp: Two examples. The children grow up to be royalty in Narnia, but return to our world and get de-aged and we find out that Diggory was a KidHero in ''Literature/TheMagiciansNephew''.* LightIsNotGood: Jadis, the ''White'' Witch is evil. Notable in that Tilda Swinton was going to portray her as a brunette but producers thought she looked "too gothic".* LimitedWardrobe, ironically: Examining the pictures closely reveals that the children are always wearing the same clothes (bar the addition of fur coats for the third entry to Narnia) despite the early chapters of the book taking place over several days. Perhaps [[JustifiedTrope justified]], given the time period the book is set in.* MagicPants: At the end, the now adult Pevensies in their royal garb reenter the wardrobe from Narnia and return as children (or teens) back in their English clothing.* TheMarvelousDeer: The wish-granting stag -- that is not caught. Instead the hunt sends them back home.* MenAreTheExpendableGender: Father Christmas [[ValuesDissonance infamously]] tells Susan and Lucy, "Battles are ugly when women fight." This is why Peter gets a sword, Susan gets a bow, and Lucy a dagger (self-defense only).* TheMole: ** Edmund, for the first half, although it is revealed to the reader at the start of the plot thread.** [[spoiler: Jadis also fooled Edmund into thinking she was on his side long enough for him to lure his siblings to Narnia]].** Mr. Tumnus was this to Lucy, then oddly became a ReverseMole to the Witch after his HeelRealization* MrExposition: The beavers fulfill this role, and it avoids AsYouKnow territory since the kids are new to that universe and really don't know any of the expository material.* MustacheVandalism: Edmund does this to the [[TakenForGranite stone lion]] in the witch's courtyard.* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: ** Edmund's reaction when the White Witch turns a dinner party to stone for refusing to deny it was provided by Father Christmas over his protests. At that point, Edmund realizes the evil he has sided with and wishes with all his heart that he could undo what he has done. Fortunately, Aslan later helps him do just that.** Mr. Tumnus reaches it immediately when he tries to kidnap Lucy for the Witch. Since he's a nice guy who was only doing it on pain of being turned to stone, she's able to talk him out of it.* MyRuleFuIsStrongerThanYours: Aslan and Jadis argue about the Deep Magic and she seems to win. In the end it turns out there are things he knows about it that she doesn't.* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Edmund absentmindedly tells the White Witch that Lucy met a faun the last time she was in Narnia, not realising he's just blown Mr Tumnus's cover. The faun may have got away with it had it not been for that (though he does say the trees are on Jadis's side too).* NiceJobFixingItVillain: The Witch's preference for turning people to stone and keeping them as trophies in her castle, as opposed to just killing them, means that Aslan can resurrect them all and lead them as reinforcements in the battle.* NightmareFuel: Invoked by the LemonyNarrator, who explains that if he were to describe some of the more hideous creatures, your parents probably wouldn't let you read this book.* NoodleIncident: The talk Aslan gives to Edmund after his {{Heel Face Turn}}. The narrator tells us it's a moment that belongs to only the two of them, and he won't intrude.* TheNounAndTheNoun ...And the noun.* PinnedToTheWall: The White Witch sticks a sword through Peter's chain mail sleeve, pinning him to the ground so she can kill him.* PortalSlam: The wardrobe's door.* PrettyInMink: Fur coats are necessary in the deep and eternal cold.** FurAndLoathing: Jadis is described as having a magnificent ermine coat. * PropheciesRhymeAllTheTime:** [[DownplayedTrope Almost.]]-->''When Adam's flesh and Adam's bone''\\''Sits at Cair Paravel in throne,''\\''The evil time will be over and done.''** Susan lampshades this in the film:---> '''Susan:''' You know, that doesn't really rhyme.** However it is what is known as an "Eye rhyme". Each line ends with "-one"making it look like it SHOULD rhyme. * RainRainGoAway: The children are prompted to explore the house (and thus kick off the plot) because it's too rainy to do anything outside.* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Subverted. It looks as if Edmund will suffer this after redeeming himself by destroying the Witch's wand, but he is saved by Lucy's cordial.* RuleOfSymbolism: As a Christian allegory, nearly every one of the book's major plot points ties back into a corresponding plot point in the Gospels in some way or another.** The Pevensie siblings come to see themselves as Aslan's disciples, and vow to carry out his will in Narnia by fighting the White Witch. Appropriately, there are four siblings (just as the Gospels were written by Christ's four closest Apostles), and {{the leader}} of the group is named "[[MeaningfulName Peter]]".** Edmund's betrayal of the group (for Turkish Delight) is based on Judas Iscariot's betrayal of Jesus (for 20 pieces of silver). Aslan chooses to peacefully give himself up to the White Witch after his betrayal, just as Jesus chooses to peacefully give himself up to the Romans.** Aslan's death and resurrection at the Stone Table is based on Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. The innocent Aslan chooses to die in place of the traitor Edmund, just as the sinless Jesus chooses to die to atone for the sins of humanity. Before killing him, the White Witch's minions [[KickTheDog humiliate Aslan]] by binding him and forcibly shaving his mane, just as the Roman soldiers humiliate Jesus by stripping him naked, gambling for his clothes, forcing him to drink sour wine, and crowning him with thorns.** The two girls in the quartet, Susan and Lucy, stay with Aslan to comfort him before his death, and are the first to find him alive after his miraculous resurrection, just as a group of women close to Jesus ([[DependingOnTheWriter including Mary Magdalene and at least one other woman]]) witness his crucifixion and first realize that he's alive after finding his tomb empty.** The Stone Table, which represents the most ancient laws of Narnia, symbolically stands in for the divine law of the Old Testament (which was engraved on '''stone table'''ts given to Moses). Aslan's death and resurrection causes the table to crack, signifying the beginning of a new age built on Aslan's law. In the Christian Bible, Jesus' death and resurrection signifies the beginning of the New Testament, and the beginning of a new age based on Jesus' teachings.* RunningGag: The first few chapters are insistent on reminding you what a very foolish thing it is to lock oneself into a wardrobe. It's said that Lewis wrote this in so that young readers playing pretend would not lock themselves in real-life wardrobes. In one of the movie's HilariousOuttakes, Skander Keyes (Edmund) does get himself locked in the wardrobe.* SavageWolves: Maugrim and his pack work for the witch as a secret police and enforcers. * SiblingRivalry: Edmund and Lucy, with more on Edmund's part, due to the fact that he enjoys tormenting her. Fortunately, they got better.* SkewedPriorities: Coupled with ValuesDissonance. Father Christmas says to Susan "battles are ugly when women fight". He's saying she shouldn't fight because she's a girl, as opposed to because she's just a child. It's fine for Peter to fight in battle when he's only a year or so older than her. (Lucy gets a dagger to defend herself. Edmund isn't present to be compared with). However, Susan gets a bow and arrows. This may be FairForItsDay, considering that even the U.S. military didn't allow women in combat zones at all until the 1990s.* SpringIsLate: By about a ''hundred years''.* SupernaturalAid: Father Christmas' gifts to the Pevensies such as a HealingPotion.* TakenForGranite: How the White Witch deals with people she doesn't like.* TenderTears: Susan and Lucy shed these during Aslan's Passion. * TheyStillBelongToUsLecture: The Witch tries to reclaim Edmund after his HeelFaceTurn by telling the other heroes that he is a traitor and his blood is her property. [[spoiler:The problem is, according to the laws of magic in Narnia, she's right. This is why Aslan has to sacrifice himself in Edmund's place.]]* ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself: Aslan tells the others to stay back and let Peter fight Maugrim alone. It directly echoes the story of Edward III saying of his son, the Black Prince, at the Battle of Crécy, "Let the boy win his spurs." (The spurs were a symbol of knighthood.)* ThisIsYourBrainOnEvil: One of the consequences of Edmund's GRatedDrug usage is a lowering of his IQ.* TranshumanTreachery: Mr. Beaver invokes this trope as he advises the Pevensie children that if something claims to be, used to be, or may become human, "keep an eye on it and feel for your hatchet."* TheVamp: The White Witch for Edmund but with candy instead of sex. The movie sure kicks up that subtext, however.* VictoryGuidedAmnesia: After being crowned Kings and Queens of Narnia, the children slowly forget their old life on Earth -- until one day, while out riding...* WeaponOfChoice: Father Christmas's gifts to Peter, Susan, and Lucy include a [[HeroesPreferSwords sword]] and shield, a bow and quiver of arrows, and a dagger respectively.* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: ** The animals having a dinner party before being turned to stone by the Witch (leading to Edmund's HeelFaceTurn) are never mentioned again. Lewis was even asked about this by one of his readers (or the reader's mom) and hastily wrote back a WordOfGod that ''of course'' the animals at the dinner party got turned back, just not on stage, and he was very sorry the child was distressed about the issue.** Also, the Dwarf that drives the Witch's sleigh is a fairly prominent aspect of the story, yet his fate goes unaccounted for in the book. In the film, he gets shot by Susan in his attempt to finish off an injured Edmund.* WinterRoyalLady: Although not fitting the title part of the trope, Jadis fits the other parts; calls herself queen, dresses in winter colors and styles etc.* WomanInWhite: The White Witch.----

More Powerful than Ever: Kernel 2.6.23 Released
With numerous new drivers and functions and a whole bunch of improvements Linus Torvalds released the new 2.6.23 version of the Linux kernel in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
The new kernel version took slightly longer to complete than anticipated. "not because of any huge issues, but because of various bugfixes trickling in and causing me to reset my "release clock" all the time" Torvalds explains. In his announcement on the Linux Kernel Mailing List he goes on to say that there have not been many changes between the last Release Candidate and the final kernel version 2.6.23. Most of the improvements affect the Mips, Sparc64 and Blackfin architectures, apart from a couple of one-liners, driver and subsystem fixes.

The information contained in the monograph makes available to the medical profession an accurate digest of the work done in a large and important chemotherapeutic field. It also permits a proper evaluation of that work and points out certain areas in which additional research may be profitable.
The monograph gives a fairly complete survey of the experimental work in the field of sulfonamides and related compounds. The book is divided into twelve chapters, seven of which are devoted to the chemistry and pharmacology of simple and complex sulfanilamide derivatives and of sulfones and related compounds. Most of the sulfonamides and sulfones which have been prepared and tested are arranged in convenient tables which list their activities with respect to various organisms and give appropriate references. The compiled material is grouped into 323 tables and contains 2668 references.
The volume also includes chapters on the experimental method used in the evaluation

Watch stocks you care about
The single, easiest way to keep track of all the stocks that matter...
Your own personalized stock watchlist!
It's a 100% FREE Motley Fool service...
Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over daily movements, we do like to keep an eye on market changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
Stocks fell for the third straight day today as worries about a potential government shutdown mixed with rumors about the Fed's upcoming stimulus taper to rattle investors once again. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) finished down 50 points, or 0.3%, to close at 15,401.
In the latest Fed news, New York President William Dudley said plans for initiating the taper are still on track as long as the economy keeps improving, and Dallas President Richard Fisher said he had advocated for a $10 billion cut to the $85 billion monthly bond-buying program in last week's meeting. However, Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart stood by the decision to delay the taper last week, noting that job gains have only added 148,000 over the last three months. The Fed next meets October 29-30, though it seems after last week's big misjudgment that investors would be better off not playing guessing games and obsessing over every comment.
Meanwhile, the market continued to await the Senate's next move after the House sent over a bill that would shut down the government on October 1 if Congress does not vote to defund Obamacare. The Democratic-led Senate has said that the idea is dead on arrival, but a core of Tea Party Republicans including Ted Cruz have vowed to fight, and Cruz has suggested filibustering any attempt to keep Obamacare alive. We can't predict the outcome of this debate, but continued steps toward a government shutdown will only put negative pressure on the market.
On the Dow today, financial stocks were the poorest performers as Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS ) in its first day on the index fell 2.7% while JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) dropped 2.5%. The sectorwide decline seemed to be paced by Citigroup (NYSE: C ) , which slid 3.2% after announcing it would lay off 1,000 employees in its mortgage unit, following the lead of other big banks. Perhaps more importantly for the industry, The Financial Times reported that the bank is headed for lower bond-trading revenue due to a decline in interest rate and currencies business. JPMorgan was also on the receiving end of what appears to be yet another mortgage suit from the Justice Dept., which may file allegations tomorrow, saying that the bank violated securities laws in bond sales during the run-up to the financial crisis.
Finally, General Electric (NYSE: GE ) was one of the Dow's biggest gainers, moving up 1.1% after the conglomerate won a $2.7 billion contract from Algeria's national electricity and gas company. The deal is one of GE's biggest power plant orders ever, and will pave for the addition of 9 gigawatts of capacity. With energy demand in Algeria growing 14% annually, the agreement could lead to similar purchases down the road.
Hungry for dividend stocks?
Dividend stocks can make you rich. It's as simple as that. While they don't garner the notoriety of high-flying growth stocks, they're also less likely to crash and burn. And over the long term, the compounding effect of the quarterly payouts, as well as their growth, adds up faster than most investors imagine. With this in mind, our analysts sat down to identify the absolute best of the best when it comes to rock-solid dividend stocks, drawing up a list in this free report of nine that fit the bill.

Skip to comments.Caption Bill and Chelsea Clinton
Posted on 09/26/2008 3:14:32 PM PDT by redstates4ever
She's slightly better than Amy Carter.
1) Did Hilly just say that?
2) Oh God, She is toast now..
3) Oh Look! Sarah Palin!!
No caption, just noticing how loose Bill's wedding band appears to be. It must be the "easy on, easy off" model.
That may be true, but so is my neighbor's dog.
Hey, you don't want tan lines on your ring finger when you're out clubbing.
I like to think pic #2 will be their reactions on election Night when Mccain/Palin is swept in on a landslide.
"Don't worry, baby, I'm gonna make sure mamma's the candidate in 2012."
Actually I think pic#3 will be more their reaction.
"Web Hubbell is my daddy and I got stuck with this walking vessel of STDs"
1. Oh geez look away...look away...shoot I hope Chelsea didn't see me staring at that woman's rear.
2.God this is boring...I wonder what monica is doing?
3.ahha Fake Laugh...HOw long do I have to keep this up?
I think it will be picture 3.
"No dad, I'm not gonna be your wingman tonight."
[Actually I think pic#3 will be more their reaction.]
I tend to agree.
This is what you need to use to carry home 15 lead bricks.
Who can risk a ripped bag?
Bill Clinton enjoys a good laugh with Web Hubble's daughter.
"You're right, Daddy...that McCain guy is the one to vote for!"
Where are they? And speaking of rings, Chelsea must be engaged. Did I miss something?
"Why the long face, pal?"
So tell me Chelsea, do you hear from your Father ?
Looks like he is holding his glasses, and that isn't his ring. Doesn't look like he is wearing a wedding ring.
Web Hubbel is proud.
He is holding glasses, but he also has the ring on.
That's the first time I've seen his ring :P

This weekend's Wall Street Journal contains a must-read interview with Washington attorney Cleta Mitchell, who is representing a number of conservative clients harassed by the IRS. Two items in the piece particularly caught my eye.
First, not surprisingly, no one from the IRS has contacted any of Mitchell's clients as part of any investigation into IRS abuses. Presumably Eric Holder's department isn't terribly motivating to find evidence of wrongdoing. But, Mitchell says, the FBI had contacted Tea Party leaders about who attends their meetings -- as though they're some sort of domestic terrorists.
Second, it sounds as though the IRS also managed to threaten the business interests of at least one conservative donor:
Ms. Mitchell says she learned this week that the IRS even intervened in the business dealings of a donor to conservative causes. "There were two public companies that were in the process of trying to do a merger and somehow the IRS stepped in and demanded all this information and said, 'If you don't give it to us we'll stop this merger,' " she says.
Third, Mitchell mentions the possibility that there has been systematic IRS harassment of individual conservative donors -- but understandably many are worried about coming forward.
All this, put together, suggests that a time may come -- after Congressional investigations have run their course -- for an independent counsel to take over . . . someone who will lead the kind of investigation a Holder-dominated DOJ will never conduct, and who has the time and the power to really plumb the depths of the IRS's dirty work.

NOWHERE do I read of the rights or status, or even of the existence, of the clinical faculty. Having been a clinical professor for 15 years, I set down my own experience, which relates to appointments at several medical schools that shall remain nameless. I do it in writing because in my experience that is the only way that the clinical faculty can communicate with deans. I never met my deans, either before or while I was a clinical professor. Of course, my experience might be only a small, poor sample and not be representative of that of other readers who participate in clinical teaching.
What do I understand a "clinical" appointment to be? I consider it to be an action by a dean of a medical school that confers the right to teach and the right to use a title. Of course, the right to teach is a magnificent

Welcome to the Majisuka Gakuen Wiki
If you would like to contribute, please see our list of pages that need work here.
About the Majisuka Gakuen Series
Majisuka Gakuen Series (マジすか学園 シリーズ, Majisuka Academy Series?) is a school drama series featuring the members of AKB48 Group. The series focuses on the lives of "Yankee" (ヤンキー?) girls during their senior high school years. It is the first school series to have the first three seasons be broadcasted from TV Tokyo, and the fourth and fifth to be broadcasted from Nihon TV.
TV/NET Drama
Season 1: Majisuka Gakuen
Season 1 focuses on the life of Maeda Atsuko, a 2nd Year Yankee Girl who wanted to become a nurse after her bestfriend died trying to keep her away from a fight.
The first season ran on TV Tokyo from January 8, 2010 to March 2, 2010, garnering criticism about the amount of blood and violence featured in the show [1],[2].
Season 2: Majisuka Gakuen 2
Season 2 continues on the story of the characters from the previous season, with some introduction to additional characters.
Majisuka Gakuen 2 ran from April 15, 2011 to July 1, 2011.
Season 3: Majisuka Gakuen 3
The third installment of the drama had the same title as the previous seasons, but a completely different plot and new cast of characters. It is set on a Prison-like School for Female High School Yankees.
It ran from July 13, 2012 to October 5, 2012, and was the first season to feature a member of HKT48.
Season 4: Majisuka Gakuen 4
This installment of the drama continues on the same setting as the first two seasons, but has a new generation of cast and characters. It is the first season to have members of NMB48 in the main cast.
Majisuka Gakuen 4 started airing on January 19, 2015 on NTV, and on Hulu a week earlier.
Season 5: Majisuka Gakuen 5
This installment of the drama has the same setting as the fourth season, and is a continuation of it's preceding season. The story of Majisuka Gakuen 5 is more original and expansive than the other installments of the series. It is not only about school-age delinquents, but also involves Yakuza and the police in the storyline.
NTV aired it's first three episodes (called "volumes") on August 24th, 2015, with the rest of it only viewable on Hulu.
SP: Majisuka Gakuen 0 (Kisarazu Schooltrip)
A 1-part movie which shows the story of Sakura's and Katsuzetsu's previous school year before they transferred to Majisuka Jyogakuen. It also shows the story of what happened to Wota/Scandal during her 2-year transfer to Shekarashika Joshishogyo in Fukuoka.
A 30-min version of it was aired in NTV on November 28, 2015, while a 1-hour version is available on Hulu and the Shekarashika! Type-A DVD as a Bonus.
Gaiden Series
Gaiden (外伝 Side Stories?) are short stories/skits that features some of the characters from Seasons 4 & 5. While Season 4's Gaiden shows the possibility that these were events after the season's main event, Season 5's Gaiden only shows some short skits/manzai similar to NMB48's Geinin! Series.
Stage Musicals
Stage: Majisuka Gakuen (Kyoto Schooltrip)
A musical version based on the series was released on May 14-19, 2015 at the AiiA Theater in Tokyo. It tells of the story of Gekikara and Otabe leading Majijo's first school trip to Kyoto. It served as the connection between Seasons 2, 3 and 4.
Stage: Majisuka Gakuen (Lost in the Supermarket)
An upcoming musical which features Black and Katabutsu. The story continues the events after Majisuka Gakuen 5. It is the second Majisuka Gakuen Stage Musical and will be shown on July 25 to August 5, 2016 at the Akasaka ACT Theater.

After many hours of putting the poles together and undoing them again, we got the tent up. The sun was shining and all was well. Thank you to all the helpers. Roll on Friday.
Friday night was a great start to our music weekend despite the cold weather. Turnpike opened the festival with a lovely duo set and they were followed by the beautiful singing of Ruth and fantastic guitar playing of Ken Powell. They chose music from many different genres as well as contemporary folk, and everythijng they chose had "the magic". They are truly a class act.
Saturday Afternoon started with the song writers show case. Little Bird, Peter Southworth and Ken Scalley entertained us with their self penned songs. It was great to hear original material performed so well.
This set was followed by "TheYoung Uns" who were an absolute delight . Such up and coming talent. Well done, Shannon Walmsley, Adam Cheetham, Paul Regan, Alex Preston, and Lauren Clarke.
Saturday night treated us to the delightful Chonkinfeckle who were superb as always. Their clever self penned lyrics about life in Wigan and environs, were delivered with excellent ukulele and percussion backing. They were entertaining and fun.
Hard Times were brilliant. We had history, storytelling, singalongs, comedy, and virtuoso whistle and banjo instrumentals from Laurie and Gordon. Highlights were the William Tell Overture and the Masons Apron played on the whistle. These got standing ovations.
We had a great day with a full house both in the afternoon and night, followed by another long night session in the bar.
Sunday afternoon saw the usual Open Mic Session which again had good performances from many of the musicians attending the Festival.
On Sunday night, the highly talented Jon Brindley did not let us down. He sang from the heart with his magnificent voice, accompanied by excellent guitar and accordion playing. His new 'beast' adds yet another dimension to his already wide repertoire. His patter is like no other. You can see him again at the Unity Club, Standish along with that other highly talented group Chonkinfeckle, on July 10th. That double bill should be fun. So get there and support your local talent
Also on Sunday night, Ed McGurk and Nic Caffrey treated us to wonderful musical renditions of both traditional and contemporary folk songs. Their harmony and story telling have resurrected many of these gems of songs and brought them back to mainstream audiences. Not many people can do that but these two experienced and accomplished performers have nailed it. The fact that Nic had a throat infection did not deter from this wonderful set. They were a delight and the audience loved them. A comment after summed it up "this is real folk singing". A fitting end to another great music weekend at Coppull AND it didn't rain!!
A big thank you to the tent team who turned up both on Thursday and Monday afternoons.. You did a sterling job and the tents have now been put to bed for another year.
Thanks to Mavis and Ron for all their hard work tending to the bar and keeping their pub open to accommodate so many guests all day and night. Thanks to Westminster Stage Engineering – Bill and Lesley, for making sure that the sound quality was A1 throughout all 5 concerts. Thanks to Ken for the Stage. Thanks to Mavis and Ron and to Phil who provided the tents. Thanks to Ken and Phil who shared the MC'S role. Thanks to everybody who helped with the raffle, both the prize donators and the ticket sellers. Thanks to Coppull Rugby Club for providing the camping facilities. Without all this help, the Festival could not run. A very big thanks to you Phil for co-ordinating it all, and making it happen.
Lastly thanks to all of you who came, and helped to make this Festival of 2015 come alive for the weekend. For old friends and new it was another very memorable occasion and a great success.
FRIDAY NIGHT - Turnpike and Ruth and Ken Powell
SATURDAY AFTERNOON - Outdoor Session, Singer Songwriters and the Young 'Uns
SATURDAY NIGHT - Chonkinfeckle and Hard Times
SUNDAY NIGHT - Bar Session followed by Jon Brindley and Ed McGurk and Nic Caffery

text: After you finish mowing your lawn, a string trimmer and hedge trimmer can spruce up your yard by trimming hard-to-reach areas mowers can't get to. Touching up areas along fences and driveways gives your lawn a polished look and helps to improve the overall appearance of your home. So stop fiddling around with those hand clippers and pruning shears, and make things easier by adding a little extra outdoor power to your life.

Flood warnings are precautionary
MONTPELIER The National Weather Service issued warnings of potential flooding for parts of northern and northeastern Vermont on Thursday, which were expected to be in effect until this morning.
Ice jams caused some rivers to rise, and more ice jams could form. Montpelier officials said at mid-day that the major risks had subsided, but Montpelier Fire Department Lt. Mark Tillinghast said city crews continued to monitor water levels.
The state warned those near waterways or in low-lying areas to monitor river levels, keeping in mind water can rise quickly if ice clogs the riverbed. If water begins to rise, those affected should seek higher ground immediately, a news release said.
Firefighters in Montpelier and Moretown said they thought the worst was behind them Thursday afternoon, adding they found no evacuations were necessary.
Moretown Fire Chief Sean OBrien said officials had watched near Route 100Bs Ward swimming hole, but an ice jam there cleared up.

The NCAA issued this statement on its site: "Media reports yesterday quoting unnamed sources said the inappropriate use of Nevin Shapiro's attorney to obtain depositions in the Miami case was authorized by the NCAA General Counsel's office. These reports are not true. In fact, evidence shows the General Counsel's Office specifically told the enforcement staff — on at least two occasions prior to any arrangements being made with the attorney — that they could not use Shapiro's attorney for that purpose. As a result, the external investigation is solely focused on the behavior within and the environment of the enforcement program."

INDIANAPOLIS and EL PASO, ILL. – July 14, 2009 – Dow AgroSciences LLC announced today it is acquiring the majority of assets of Illinois-based corn company Pfister Hybrids. The addition of Pfister Hybrids will further expand Dow AgroSciences' current U.S. seeds business as the company anticipates the introduction of SmartStax™ in 2010 and Dow AgroSciences Herbicide Tolerance (DHT) technology in corn in 2012. The transactional close is expected in the near future.
"Pfister was one of the founding seed corn companies in the Midwest, and we are proud to continue the legacy started more than seven decades ago by one of the nation's original seedsmen Lester Pfister," said Stan Howell, vice president, North America Regional Commercial Unit for Dow AgroSciences. "Pfister Seeds is a welcomed addition to our U.S. seed business. At Dow AgroSciences investing in innovation is the key to our future, and we look forward to building upon the Pfister tradition."
Under the terms of the agreement, Dow AgroSciences will acquire the Pfister brand and the sales and marketing areas, as well as the warehousing and administrative services of the business. Dow AgroSciences will continue to independently market seeds under the Pfister Seeds brand, and Pfister Seeds will continue to be headquartered at its existing location in El Paso.
Linda Brown, president for Pfister, will remain with Pfister Seeds LLC as general manager. Dale Brown will continue with Pfister as the business and brand development lead, and Bill Salmi will remain as the company controller.
"I'm very pleased that the Pfister brand will continue with Dow AgroSciences," said David Pfister, CEO, Pfister Hybrids. "The additional resources they provide will help enhance the service and support to our customers along with providing better access to new genetics and traits. I am excited that together with Dow AgroSciences, Pfister will be able to provide an excellent choice for providing Midwestern corn growers the quality seed they have come to expect."
Lester Pfister founded Pfister Hybrid Corn Company more than 70 years ago and was one of the first seedsmen in the United States. He was recognized as "Outstanding Corn Breeder of the World" by the Museum of Science and Industry, and by 1940, 44 states and 30 countries were planting Pfister corn. His early innovations in corn breeding and production aided in the development of today's hybrid seed corn industry.
