Skip to comments.Nearly 700,000 Guestworker Visas Issued In 2012
Posted on 04/08/2013 10:40:47 AM PDT by zeestephen
About two-thirds skilled, one-third unskilled. Last week, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced that the AFL-CIO and Chamber of Commerce had agreed on a proposal to increase the number of unskilled guestworker visas above and beyond the number already being issued.
(Excerpt) Read more at cis.org ...
Many work visas are good for several years, and some work visas are actually valid indefinitely.
Also, many work visas issued in prior years can be renewed, often for periods up to six years.
The Center for Immigration Studies has estimated that the total number of people working in the USA with a valid visa is about 1 million.
America's job market is booming! If you're a foreigner.
They announce this as if it's the best thing to happen in years.
H1B's are decimating the IT industry.
H-1B Professional Skilled 136,000
WTH is this? Anyone?
TN Nafta Professionals Skilled 75,000*
Yes, but if an H-1B saves just one American's job, it will be worth it!
(s) nully, who was displaced by THREE H-1B's on his last job...
There might soon be a lot more than 11 million new "guest workers" if the traitors in congress have their way. These "guests" are eating us out of house and home.
...about 80% of those are petroleum engineers from the middle east....gas station attendants, who eventually wind up over extending their "work" visas
NAFTA contained provisions which allowed a certain number of workers in various categories to come to the US each year. Not sure of the details, but one objection to NAFTA was that it changed immigration law without those provisions being debated, or even known about by most.
"H-1B Professional Skilled 136,000"
That actually understates the problem.
Many H-1B's are renewable up to six years.
H-1B's are also quite often a direct path to a Green Card.
That means the reported visa total goes down, but the worker is still in the USA.
Last year CIS did an analysis of native born Americans who had a science or technology degree.
From memory, 2 million were either unemployed or working in a field not related to their degree.
that it changed law without those provisions being debated, or even known about by most.
Take out the immigration part and it is business as usual.
That's a very surprising figure given the current salary levels for those graduating with technical degrees. The last time I looked the top 9 paying jobs were going to various engineering categories with Petroleum Engineering at the top at $80K+. Hard to believe there is a surplus of Petroleum Engineers if they are paying that much for someone still wet behind the ears and with just 4 years of college.
Take a look at Engineering Salaries 2012 for a little counter programming. You'll see some pretty big salary numbers tossed around.
Who is CIS? I'll try to find your reference. And note that you have to be careful with the term "science degree". Study psychology and you get a "science degree". We need to look at the the CIS definition.
Those native-born Americans are only responding to incentives, with a sub-optimal result, much like those that won't pursue science/technology degrees due to the problem. Why would someone bother with something that isn't going to bring in a favorable(or just positive) return on investment?
The problem with guest workers is that citizenship is discouraged - since the H1-b program is first a vehicle for offshore knowledge transfer as well as a government program that distorts the labor market.
On top of that, the US Government itself knew there was a problem with enforcement before the public at large did. The incentives that keep the program going also make enforcement ineffective.
There may be a path that exists, but citizenship would work against the dual incentives to keep the guest worker captive and to export knowledge to another country. It would be far better to just scrap every guest worker program and the underpinning immigration law set in 1965.
In all cases, it is far better to encourage freedom - not captivity. When that is done, it attracts those that want to work and live here - having choices as a productive citizen. Who knows, they might actually form a business, employ people, and promote the idea that the American Dream is attainable.
If we didn't have so many illegals people in these unskilled jobs could maybe get paid a little more. I know any talk of higher wages is generally met with disdain here but a tighter labor market would be a beautiful thing.
Here's a twofer: give those 'guest worker' passes to the citizens of Detroit. I mean they're looking for work, right?
Here's a twofer: give those 'guest worker' passes to the citizens of Detroit. I mean they're looking for work, right?
I personally believe that bringing in all of these foreign IT people is why we have so many vulnerabilities in code. If I am a foreign worker and I leave a back door access, why then I can blackmail when I get back home. It is insidious, but I believe it happens all the time.
You forgot the /sarc tag.
And that was written more than two years ago.
" Treason. "
Including the Chamber of Commerce.
It gets cheap labor, and America gets the tab.
Lots of articles about it if you're interested in more information:
Just click the link on the posted article to get to their home page.
They do much original research, and they also maintain an archive of all Ph.D dissertations on USA immigration issues.
I don't have time to search right now, but I'm certain it was a 2012 article.
As I recall, the survey included only STEM degrees, not the social sciences, but it may have included economics.
Also, I don't mean to imply that ALL those native born STEM graduates left their field unwillingly.
No doubt many have found more satisfying work in other areas.
As to salary, I find median salary much more helpful than mean salary.
Overwhelmingly, foreign technology workers earn near or below the median salary.
They are NOT geniuses.
They compete against recent graduates and mid-level engineers.
I can verify that from personal experience.
I live in the heart of Microsoft country.
Most of the foreign programmers in east King County are paid less than $75k.
They are nice people, they are competent, they work very hard, but they are NOT geniuses.
The "genius" scam spills over into the Ph.D arena, also.
Foreign Ph.D STEM graduates have wide latitude to stay and work in the USA for many years.
But which ones do?
Among Ph.D STEM grads from western Europe, Japan, and the Persian Gulf, 80% return to their native country.
Among Ph.D STEM grads from China, India, Russia, and eastern Europe, 80% are still in the USA after 5 years.
Once again, most of the Ph.D's who stay are NOT geniuses.
On a per capita basis, foreign Ph.D's in America have their work cited fewer times than native born Ph.D's.
I'll search for that link, too.
Bottom line.....
Politically, I think we have the same goal - bring the most brilliant scientists and engineers in the world to the USA.
I think that number is probably 10,000 to 15,000 a year.
I am absolutely certain it is NOT 700,000 a year.
That is correct. We need the right balance and we need the best and brightest engineers working for American companies.
I worked for many years as an engineer and as an engineering program manager and so I saw a lot of really smart guys and gals who weren't born in this country. I worked for several years for a Japanese fellow who was in Japan when the bomb dropped. He came to this country after the war and helped the U.S. become a leader in phased array and satellite antenna technology. But I've seen a lot of just as smart students come out of UCLA and USC and Purdue and Stanford and Cal Tech and MIT and do the same thing.
I did a STEM search on the CIS website and I came up with a couple of articles that may be the ones you are referencing:
Or it could be THIS ONE:Is President Obama Right About Engineers?
There is an interesting chart in the second article. Here it is:
I'm not quite sure what to make of it and I certainly don't know what a "General Engineer" is. Never met one but it doesn't look like a good category. But neither does Electrical Engineering. And note that there aren't too many Petroleum Engineers looking for a job.
A caution. Some of the engineers simply retired before they reached 65. I've seen that a lot and I managed it by a couple of years. And some have started business that benefit from their technical skills. And some are simply managers that would say no to the question of whether they are employed as engineers.
In any case, my real concern relates to who is getting into the STEM programs at our Universities. There are at least two theories running around:
1. The foreign students are getting the slots because there is a financial incentive for the Universities due to the higher tuitions paid by those foreign students.
2. Those slacker Americans are not up the hard work that it takes to get a STEM related degree.
It's probably a combination of both ideas. I'm not sure. But I'd like to know the truth.

Dr. App is wonderful. Which is why this to type this is hard, but his staff are very rude and do not listen.
Best doctor ever
Phenomenal Doctor!! Horrid support staff. Have left messages over a period of 3 WEEKS! NEVER got back, even though I stated I was in a good deal of pain...3 WEEKS! Still waiting for a call back to get referred.
Love Dr App, but cannot handle the uncaring staff who talks but doesn't listen to your needs and when asking for medicine orders totally different then what I request and does not tell me, so awkward when picking up from the pharmacy. Both the nursing staff and billing staff are uncaring and screen all their calls. NEVER answers their phone directly. I will be looking for a new doctor although I love Dr App and have been going to him for years. I need a staff who cares and is honest when I am under the weather and this staff totally does not care.
Dr app is fantastic! Was happy we switched but his staff has no follow up. I have called several times to medical staff and no one answers or calls back. Now I wonder if leaving our other doctor was worth it. A great doctor should have a great staff. This is not the case
Dr App has been both of my kids only Doctor and they love him!. My son is almost 9 and my daughter is 4. He makes the kids feel comfortable when he walks in the room. My kids aren't scared when going to the drs.
My child has been here since the beginning of her life. I have gotten referrals in a timely manner from the office , however, the actual care that my child receives leaves me feeling that I need a second opinion every time . I have second guessed decisions made by Dr App, which then , under pressure from me questioning his decision, he may give in to my request, and after another test or two, they inform me that actually , I was correct and a different medication is in fact now necessary . I also feel that the used car salesman feeling is adequate description. At first it felt possibly sincere,, but after the care given showed me otherwise , it just seems condescending . I really don't like the feeling of not trusting my ped . I know I need to find another .
My family and I have been patients of Dr. App's for 6 plus years. I feel as if over the years the quanity of patients brought into the pratice is more important rather than the quality he puts into his patients has become him. I am transfering out of the practice. It is very sad that it has come to this!
Dr. App is an amazing physician!! My son was sick for over 3 weeks, was in the ER 5 tims and had seen his previous physician 3 times. All everyone kept telling me was that it was viral. I finally had enough and called Dr. App,, hearing wonderful things about him from friends and co-workers. He worked us in that same day and informed us that my son more than likely has asthma and gave us the correct meds to help him. Since seeing him, my son is 150% better and I thank Dr. App for that. To the person that said he was a used car salesman, I work with people that know him on a personel level, These people also include other physcians that I work with. He was never a used car salesman, your comment was nothing but misinformation and you should investigate before you write such things.
My entire family had been seeing the same family doctor for years. More recently, my sister wasn't happy with the treatment her son was receiving and asked around for a recommendation. A friend of hers referred her to Dr. App, and after seeing him, my sister referred me to him for my daughter. He is great and so is his staff. The first time I called to make an appointment, they offered to let me come in the same day. I've never waited more than 10 minutes. He always asks me if I have any questions, takes his time, and isn't pushy about treatment plans. So happy to have found him!
Dr. App is coming back!! He is opening his own practice very soon-- within the next month. He is the best Dr. ever and can't wait to see him again. His contact information is going public very soon if not already.
I am crossing my finger that he is indeed opening his own practice!!! That would be a dream come true because he was clearly restricted practicing under the iorn fist of SHMG..... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE OPEN A PRACTICE! 1300 MI has already landed my youngest daughter in the hospital after a misdiagnosis-- aparently every cough sounds like the "croup" to them....
Hey all, Dr. App is starting up his own practice in the GR/Cascade area. It'll probably be another couple months yet but he WILL be back soon so watch for him!!
Calling DR APP? Has anyone heard where he went ... and if he is scheduling new patients. Well respected, trusted and loved by "former" patients.
We have been using Dr. App for about 8 years and his bedside manner is not fake, he is a genuinely caring and enthusiastic person. Much needed in that profession. I want to know what happened and where he is going to practice so we can move all our records over ASAP. If anyone has any leads please post. Wondering if SHMG has a non-compete on him for awhile?
Seriously, after reading some of the comments, I am a little nervous. This guy is a used car salesman who cares more about what you think of him than taking care of you. If he is gone, it is for the better.
Dr. App has been taking care of my girls since birth. He has been excellent in taking care of my older daughter as she was diagnosed with Celiac disease. He came to see me at the hospital after I gave birth to my youngest, and he made sure I had all of my questions answered in a proficient manner.I want to know where he is. I will not trust my children to another doctor. He is truly the best doctor I've had the pleasure of knowing. If you know, please re-post. He has many patients waiting to see him.
Dr. App has always been very courteous and helpful. After SH took over the medical group their phone cue and follow for test results suffered and I could see the patient load increased greatly. I know through my medical problems and those of my children there were occasions where there similar problems where the diagnosis had to be modified but thats medicine its not perfect every time, but he was willing to listen and reevaluate if treatment wasnt working right away.
Dr.App is the best i really would like to know where he went. if anyone knows please post.
Dr App is the BEST doctor that I had, and I don't know why he left, I need to find where he went so I can transfer all my records to his office. He is the BEST doctor that i HAVE ever had...
Dr App is awesome. I would not trust anyone else with my children's health
Dr. App has been our family doctor since my first child was born in 2003. Even though he has moved farther out from where he first started practicing, we have opted to follow. He has a genuine love for what he does, genuine concern for his patients and a phenomenal bedside manner. He is truly what every doctor should be :) Kudos, Kudos, Kudos!!!
Dr. App is an Amazing doctor. He is wonderful with my daughter and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who is looking for a great doctor to take care of their child/children.
Dr. App sees all of my children and me, too. We trust him with our health.
He seems to really be concerned and care but when it comes right down to it, he doesn't. He seems to have the same characteristics of your typical used car salesman. He would make a great marketing professional.
My entire family had been under his care for almost eight years. He is an excellent doctor, kind, and remembers your family. He has also become very popular over the past few years and is getting harder to get in. I am not enjoying that, especially when my kids are sick.
Dr App is such a great doctor. I would recommend him to everyone!! We have gone to his practice for the past 3 years. My husband and 3 boys all see Dr App and me the mom sees one of lady doctors at his office. Never have been treated better!!
Dr.App is an EXCELENT doctor!!! Very caring and compassionate! Seems to generally care how you are feeling and takes the time to make you feel very comfortable. He has a awesome personality and is EXECLENT with children! My children have seen him since they were both born and he still remembers everything about them. Its not like going to a doctors office and some old doctor just reading his chart 2 mins before entering your room and not even know who you are. My only concern with Dr. App is how popular he has gotten in the past few years and i hope he never gets a "big head" and starts to not make the time for his patience, nothing worse than a doctor that's to over loaded with patience!!!
Dr App is a wonderful doctor. I had gone to a couple of others and was so unsatisfied with their results. He really cares about his patients. I would recommend him to anyone. He truly listens.
Dr. App is a GREAT doctor if you want to actually enjoy visiting the doctor's office. If you're looking for accuracy or excellence in actual health care diagnosis and treatment... I strongly recommend you look elsewere. At the very least, see Dr. Harold for any real concerns or problems. She's not as personable as he is but she knows what she's doing.
I almost always get in a room right away. My only complaint is that it takes a while once your in the back,but I'm sure thats everywhere. Dr. App is wonderful and always happy and great!
Office is very busy. Don't always feel you can ask questions and get an answer.
The office has become very busy over the last 3.5 years we have been going there. I wish it were less busy but I guess the word is out about what a truly wonderful doctor he is. I actully look forward to taking my kids to thier checkups! He always has us laughing. I recommend him to all my friends having babies...but I guess now that the office is so busy I should stop!:)
What a great guy! So easy to talk to, and actually is listening to you. Makes you feel like you are the only one in the office at the time.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
Plowed through this quirky book about a quirky family I fell in love with.
I'm not sure what to say about this book to be honest. Semple's dive into Seattlites and the oh-so-standardly-wacky-ways of the Wacky Ones wasn't a horrible read. Her writing is well done and she definitely has a good phrase turn here and there throughout. But the increasingly fantastic turn of events made it more of a fun, quick read through rather than anything that stood out for me in particular.
I know this is satire and that I'm not supposed to to like the characters, but I HATE these people. I can't read this right now. DNF
I devoured this book. Thought it was hilarious and incredibly right-on about life as a Microsoft employee, and about living in Seattle. Witty and fun - can't imagine why it's taken me this long to read it!
Beware: This book is utter chaos.
After a summer of little reading joy, October certainly seems to make up for it with some cracking reads. I'm not usually keen to pick bestsellers because they don't often live up to expectations, but this one worked for me.
Where's You Go, Bernadette? is the story of a family of endearing characters, all of whom seems to be persecuted for their individual eccentricities by various people from the confines of the particular Seattle community they live in. However, not all is well. There are strains and stresses that take their toll and lead up to events which cause each of the characters to examine their lives and their relationship with their surroundings. At the heart of the story is the bond between Bernadette and her daughter, Bee:
"I hit the pause button.'How do you even know this?' I demanded.
'Abbey Road?' Mom shrugged. 'I don't know, you just know it.'
She unpaused the CD. When 'Here Comes the Sun' started, what happened? No, the sun didn't come out, but Mom opened up like the sun breaking through the clouds.
You know how in the first few notes of that song, there's something about George's guitar that's just so hopeful? It was like when Mom sang, she was full of hope, too. She even got the irregular clapping right during the guitar solo.
When the song was over, she paused it.
'Oh, Bee,' she said. 'This song reminds me of you.'
She had tears in her eyes.
This is why I didn't want her to come to the first- grade elephant dance. Because the most random things get her way too full of love.
'I need you to know how hard it is for me sometimes.' Mom had her hand on mine.
'What's hard?'
'The banality of life,' she said."
As mentioned, the writing is chaotic - the story is told from different POVs and through different snippets of media: email, reports, interviews as well as straight narrative. It is littered with cultural cynicism, witty comedy, slapstick, and thinly veiled contempt for the exaltation of the mundane.
And why not? When boredom and depression are issues to be faced, I, too, like to challenge the routine:
"My heart started racing, not the bad kind of heart racing, like, I'm going to die. But the good kind of heart racing, like, Hello, can I help you with something? If not, please step aside because I'm about to kick the shit out of life."
The book stumbles a bit in the middle as it transitions from a scathing anti-Seattle manifesto into a family drama with comic undertones. But once the gears have finished their grinding and the shuddering subsides, Semple eases into her strongest work yet, allowing her characters to change in a way that suits the story, and not just shooting for an easy punch line or a sharply worded barb. In the end, with its big heart set on acceptance, Bernadette feels something like coming home.
The tightly constructed "Where'd You Go, Bernadette" is written in many formats — e-mails, letters, F.B.I. documents, correspondence with a psychiatrist and even an emergency-room bill for a run-in between Bernadette and Audrey. Yet these pieces are strung together so wittily that Ms. Semple's storytelling is always front and center, in sharp focus. You could stop and pay attention to how apt each new format is, how rarely she repeats herself and how imaginatively she unveils every bit of information. But you would have to stop laughing first.
Semple is a TV comedy writer, and the pleasures of Where'd You Go, Bernadette are the pleasures of the best American TV: plot, wit and heart. (There are places where Semple really wants to be writing dialogue, and stretches the epistolary conceit of the novel to suit.) It's rather refreshing to find a female misunderstood genius at the heart of a book, and a mother-daughter relationship characterised by unadulterated mutual affection. If Bernadette is a monster of ego, Semple suggests, so are most people, when they're being honest. In her spiky but essentially feelgood universe, failure and self-exposure open up a rich seam of comedy, but shame can always be vanquished by love

The latest news and views about music in Milwaukee and beyond
This week in videos: New singles from The Hives, Curren$y and The Eagles' Joe Walsh
This week in videos we're featuring three very different aritsts: rapper Curren$y, Swedish garage rock five-piece The Hives and Eagles' lead guitarist Joe Walsh. They don't have much in common, but all three acts will have new albums out the first few days of June. Plus they'll all be playing Milwaukee this summer (in one case, as early as next week).
Who: Curren$y
What: Music video for "Fast Cars Faster Women," from forthcoming album "The Stoned Immaculate" (NSFW)
Milwaukee Connection: Curren$y's Jet Life tour stops at Turner Hall May 22.
Sound Bites - Your Memorial Day Weekend Show Guide and Other Music Tidbits for May 27, 2011
THREE-DAY WEEKEND! WOO-HOO! JUST A FEW MORE HOURS! To get things started, Sound Bites has a weekend concert preview and other music tidbits.
Loads of tickets go on sale today for some shows at the Pabst/Riverside/Turner triumvirate, including Milwaukee faves The Hold Steady (who rocked Riverside so good on New Year's Eve) at Turner Aug. 24,the exceptional Alison Krauss and Union Station at Riverside Sept. 10, Five for Fighting at Pabst July 20, Kenny Wayne Shepherd at Pabst Aug. 20, and James Vincent McMorrow Sept. 16 at Turner.
I've been able to catch up on some new albums released this week that were overshadowed by the third coming of Gaga. MGMT-esque Foster The People has been building up buzz for a few months thanks to its catchy jam/potential indie song of summer "Pumped Up Kicks." It's not just a one-hit wonder - the whole album is worthy listening to, and free to spin at Spinner. I also love the quiet, deceitfully powerful opening two songs to King Creosote's and Jon Hopkins' "Diamond Mine," featuring ambient noises from a Scottish shop, gorgeous piano, steady assured guitar and heartbreaking singing. Also free to stream at Spinner. »Read Full Blog Post

Marquette needs road work
4 of last 6 games away from home
One way to measure a basketball team's relative strength would be to subtract home losses from road victories.
The simple formula is more relevant in the NBA, which plays a 50-50 schedule. But it also works to a degree with college teams.
It's important to see Marquette this way because the Golden Eagles, tied for first place in the Big East, have just six games left, four of which are on the road, including Tuesday night at Seton Hall.
It's also interesting in the respect that Marquette has begun the big push for the NCAA Tournament.
With no home losses this season as part of their 23-game winning streak at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, the Golden Eagles have won two on the road. That makes them plus-2.
Syracuse and Georgetown, which share first place with Marquette (18-6, 9-3), are plus-5 and plus-3. Louisville is plus-5. Like Marquette, Villanova is plus-2.
In fact, the No. 17 Golden Eagles are tied for the fewest road victories in the Big East with last-place South Florida.
Louisville and Villanova have six each. Syracuse has five.
What all this means is the Golden Eagles must become a better road team during the stretch run of the regular season if they are to be a serious player in March, the time when most of the tournament teams will bring road credentials to the neutral sites.
So how do they transfer their home energy to the road this late in the season?
"It's obviously tough," guard Vander Blue said. "I feel like we have great fans here. We're comfortable here. There's no place like home. We practice here.
"Everybody is good on their home court. But the way we prepare here, we have to prepare for the road and just bring it. That's what separates elite teams, teams that can win on the road.
"We don't want to be known as a team that can just win at home. We want to take it to the road, because if we can start putting together some wins on the road, I think we'll really be dangerous. "
The Golden Eagles' only two road victories have come in the Big East, but both were impressive. They beat Pitt in overtime in a tough environment and they throttled South Florida, jumping out by 20 points in the first half.
When they were a different team earlier in the season - before they found an identity and while Todd Mayo was ineligible - they lost by 33 at Florida, which is as good as anyone in the country, and played very poorly in a loss at UW-Green Bay in getting their first long look at a zone defense.
The Golden Eagles came back to take Cincinnati to overtime after scoring 13 points in the first half. They turned the ball over 19 times at Georgetown. Louisville took them apart.
Although it is somewhat mitigated by a surprising 2-1 finish at the neutral Maui Invitational, Marquette's road performance so far is not something it would want to take into the NCAA Tournament.
The good news is they have time to become a good road team against the Pirates (13-13, 2-11), Villanova (16-10, 7-6), Rutgers (13-11, 4-9) and St. John's (15-10, 7-6).
The Golden Eagles were most impressive Saturday at home in completing a season sweep of Pitt, but now they have to prove themselves on the road.
"There's no telling in this league," Blue said. "Seton Hall is really tough at home. We don't want to lose our momentum after such a big win."

Community media training courses are organised for non-EU nationals alongside Irish citizens, developing individual knowledge and skills, as well as producing intercultural radio programmes for the general public.
Training the staff who are required to interact frequently with vulnerable asylum seekers and refugees led to more effective and sensitive assistance, tailored to the migrants' situation and needs.
Over the course of a year, more than 200 vulnerable irregular migrants returned voluntarily to their country of origin or habitual residence, with several enrolling in education or starting a business.

Of course the Patriots drew the toughest possible matchup in the first round according to my own list. You didn't think I would read anyone else's work did you? On top of that, Wes Welker injures himself (yes you read that right) and possibly takes himself out for not only the playoffs, but the entire 2010 season. Talk about a head start!
With these developments you can imagine the attitude of Boston's finest radio personalities. I heard everything from "the Patriots game against the Ravens doesn't matter because they can't beat the Chargers" to "the Ravens will win because they should have won back in Week 4."
Amidst all this negativity surrounding the Patriots this week, there is still a way to remain optimistic going into Sunday afternoon's match-up and I will tell you how with my five easy steps to enjoying the Patriots vs. Ravens first round playoff game.

Im sure the Patriots wont forget this ass kicking they got today.

Real Pictures Of The HTC Incredible 4G
5.0By Athanasios Zarkadas April 11, 2012 09:44 PM
Htcpedia news:
Just when I write the article for a rendering of the HTC Droid Incredible 4G, actual pictures come out. Oh well. These pictures provided by Android Police Show actual shots of the HTC Incredible.
As you can see, we were right that it had a 1.2GHz processor with 1GB RAM. It will also be running on Verizon's 4G LTE service and come equipped to handle NFC.
What bothers me is the 8GB of internal memory. Thats it? That is a bit small, don't you think. At least they have a microSD slot for expansion. We can not really tell by the pictures on the size of the screen but we do know that is qHD.
Check out the pictures and tell me what you think.

Neighbors helping out
I would like to tell the people on Crosstown Road in Berlin that I notice all the time that while they are walking they also are picking up pounds and pounds of trash. It is too bad that some people are such pigs and throw garbage out their windows. I have recently witnessed a person wait until I passed him and then threw trash out his drivers window over the bank coming down the Riverton side. I did not get a plate number.
No matter the weather I have seen residents picking up trash. I just want to say I appreciate it. Your work does not go unnoticed. Happy holidays to you good people.

Xbox One
Questions about the Xbox one...
- Topic Archived
snowfoxboi 3 years ago#1
So for anyone who actually has the thing, I had some questions:
Are the load times for the dash any better? I always had issues with everything having a slight delay on it on the 360.
Are microsofts policies still against cross platform play?
What happened to the horrible things announced like online only and no rental games? I know they retracted these, but does it seem set up at all where they might patch these in later? I really kinda felt like my 360 turned crummy after the blades died, and I don't wanna get screwed mid gen again.
Is the DDR5 RAM that PS4 uses significantly better than the DDR3 that Xbox One uses? Or is it a tiny or negligible difference? Same question for the CPU's although they are both greek to me.
Overall, how are the online gold features? Annoying? Efficient? Super Cool? Terrible? Explain :P
Lastly, I really had my eye on KI as it was a childhood favorite of mine and several of my long term friends. If anyone owns it, and has played the old ones, would you say it lives up to them? Or does it feel like it lost it's edge?
Beyond that, any unbiased talk of exclusives for either console is welcome. I'm saving up for a console and I don't have money for both, so I wanna get the one that's right for me. I wish the people who buy the other console the absolute best at having fun with it, and I don't see why so many people are offended by that.
But in general I just wanna hear what seasoned gamers who actually own the thing think. If you own BOTH consoles, and can give an unbiased comparison, or just say what you like and don't like about the Xbox one.
I know there's plenty of you guys with tl;dr stories about your experiences with the console... Well, nows your chance! I actually want to read them! :D
Millertime660 3 years ago#2
Im not gonna hit all of your points but i will say....
The dash is way faster.... no long loading of apps and such.
The DRM issue doesnt seem to be an issue. There is nothing that insinuates that it will come back and I also dont think it will.
XBLive gold is about the same right now.
Cant really say much about the ram except for it seems the ddr5 on the ps4 is easier to optimize with.
All in all they are mostly two different beasts.... If all you want to do is play games then the PS4 might be your thing. The Xbox is more about the experience and bringing everything in your living room together. It still plays great games too.
snowfoxboi posted...
What policies?
There were a few games last gen that were cross platform play on the Xbox 360 and PC and PS2.
What about PS3... There was Portal, was there anything else?

Yeah those games were from early gen prior to MS establishing their damn ass backwards policies, it all rolled out along with the floating window dash.
Actually that's the main reason SE isn't doing FFXIV on the 360, and I assume won't on the X1 either. They were so determined they kept up production on a port for a while during negotiations, but finally shut it down when MS refused to compromise on it... I was privvy to some of the news via the FFXIV beta forums back when the ship sank and they sacked the team lol.
I also recall the PC vs 360 gamer night events they did pitting shadowrun and PDZ players against the other platform... I loved that stuff, really sucks they got rid of it. And I don't wanna hear a bunch of crap about interface differences. I was fine with it, was only an optional weekend event anyway.

That's somewhat reassuring on the DRM issue, and very reassuring on the load times... I know it's a petty pet peeve but damn I hated that little lag, mainly because it wasn't there with the blades and I always kinda held a grudge for them dropping those.... lol :p

PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona Republican Jon Kyl said Thursday he won't seek re-election to a fourth term in the U.S. Senate in 2012, creating another open seat as Republicans try to take back control.
Kyl, the second-ranking Republican in the Senate, said at a news conference that it was time to give someone else a shot at the seat he's held since 1994.

SANTA FE — Despite earning a comfortable 15-point victory in its first meeting against the Santa Fe Demons, the Los Alamos Hilltopper girls basketball team wasn't taking anything for granted Wednesday night.
That turned out to be a good thing.
With under 10 seconds remaining in regulation, Santa Fe's Alix Jeantette, who hadn't taken a shot all game long, buried a long-range 3-pointer to force overtime at Toby Roybal Gymnasium.
CAIRO (AP) — Egypt's military announced on national television that it stepped in to "safeguard the country" and assured protesters that President Hosni Mubarak will meet their demands in the strongest indication yet that the longtime leader has lost power. In Washington, the CIA chief said there was a "strong likelihood" Mubarak will step down Thursday.
State TV said Mubarak will speak to the nation Thursday night from his palace in Cairo.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Residents in Otero and Lincoln Counties are being told to boil water before drinking, cooking or washing dishes.
The New Mexico Environment Department's precautionary boil water advisory includes all of Ruidoso.
Health officials say they issued the warning because extreme weather conditions have frozen and ruptured water pipes, possibly contaminating the water supply.
ALLENTOWN, Pa. (AP) — A natural gas explosion rocked a downtown neighborhood overnight, leveling two houses and spawning fires that burned for hours through an entire row of neighboring homes. Three people were killed, including an infant, and at least two others were unaccounted for Thursday.
CLARENCE, N.Y. (AP) — Rep. Christopher Lee of western New York abruptly resigned with only a vague explanation of regret after a gossip website reported that the married congressman had sent a shirtless photo of himself flexing his muscles to a woman whose Craigslist ad he answered.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of people applying for unemployment benefits plunged last week to the lowest level in nearly three years, continuing a downward trend that suggests hiring could pick up this year.
Applications sank by a seasonally adjusted 36,000 to 383,000, the lowest point since early July 2008, the Labor Department reported Thursday.
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea's abandonment of military talks with South Korea is merely the latest feint in a long duel between the two rivals, according to analysts who see further provocative actions from Pyongyang coming next.
The communist country refused to hold further talks Thursday after walking out of their first discussions in months the day before, blaming the South for insisting on putting the deadly sinking of a warship on the agenda.

Home improvements
Ever since Oliver Twist made its debut in 1837, the scene of young Oliver asking for more food has come to symbolise the worst of occurrences in a poor house.
Hong Kong Human Rights Monitor stressed that the eight children's homes run by the Social Welfare Department were nowhere as bad as the dreadful accommodation for paupers in 19th century England. But it could not help citing Charles Dickens' famous work when revealing that at some of the local institutions, even the staff, let alone the inmates, complained of a lack of food.
That this had happened in an affluent society like Hong Kong in the 21st century is downright shameful. And poor food was just one of many deficiencies the non-governmental organisation (NGO) managed to uncover in a series of visits to the facilities.
While the homes are supposed to adopt social work methods in helping their inmates, they were found to be run more like prisons, even though some children had committed no offences and were sent there for their own protection. Indeed, discipline seemed all that mattered, with most inmates locked inside their cells most of the time and not given adequate education or recreation, which was what the hapless juveniles should have expected from institutions that sought to rehabilitate or protect them.
Nor was there sufficient attention to the problems caused by putting juvenile illegal immigrants, some of whom were believed to be adults who lied about their age, together with local children. In fact, it was the death by suicide of a mainland illegal immigrant in one of the homes in 1997 that prompted the NGO to initiate this project.
It did not appear staff in the homes were perfunctory in discharging their duties. Rather, they were simply not sure of their mission and were too preoccupied with maintaining order. Like many civil servants, they tried to get the job done but lacked the imagination and initiative to go one better.
The Social Welfare Department last night rejected the main criticism, saying there was 'no question of an inadequate supply of food'. The department did, commendably, adopt an open attitude in co-operating with the watchdog, allowing it access to the homes, although it said it could not verify claims about military-style regimes as the visits were unannounced. It said it had addressed some of the problems observed by the visitors, pledging to strengthen education in all homes from September by providing more teachers. Let us hope this positive approach continues.

The Friends of Mana Island Incorporated was formed in December 1998 to provide support for the Department of Conservation (DOC) in the restoration of Mana Island.
A restoration plan was prepared by DOC in 1999 and reviewed in 2010.http://www.doc.govt.nz/documents/conservation/land-and-freshwater/offshore-islands/mana-is-restoration-plan-review.pdf .
The plan called for a 20 year planting program to restore the vegetation and habitat of the Island to a similar environment to that existing prior to human intervention on the Island. The re-forestation program called for the planting of some 500,00 trees over the period.
This has been achieved. The review provides a summary of progress since 1987 and recommendations and tasks into the future.

The Denver Broncos had a slow start to free agency, making Bronco Nation upset, frustrated, and confused. A couple months ago John Fox, John Elway, and Brian Xanders all came out and said how they had a plan for free agency, and that their top priority in free agency was the running back position.
Everyone was hoping that DeAngelo Williams would reunite with Fox, but it turned out the team didn't offer enough (or unwilling to offer enough) and lost out on that front. It seemed the Broncos never had interest in Ahmad Bradshaw of the Giants or even Ronnie Brown of the Dolphins, but there was one player who they were watching the entire time. Enter Willis McGahee.
The ex-Buffalo Bill/Baltimore Raven is entering his ninth year in the league and he is just two years removed from a 12 touchdown season. The Broncos like what they have seen in McGahee, and are hoping that he has a couple more years left in the tank to help produce for the Denver Broncos and improve last year's awful rushing attack.
EFX are hoping that McGahee can do a few more things than just collect what seems like his last contract.

The Box Born Wraith
Drabblecast released episode 87 on 10/30/08 which featured my story, The Box Born Wraith. It was their Halloween episode and I was proud to be apart of it. There hasn't been a lot of comments thus far in the forum, but what is there is mostly positive. As always Norm Sherman did a great job on the production, and I think its one of the best episodes this year. But I may be biased.

Hi Kevin!
I just discovered your work thanks to Drabblecast and I must say I LOVED "Box Born Wraith". (I'm now addicted to the podcasts...)
Awesome story, by the way. I have a special fondness for ghouls and really enjoyed what you did with that. ;)
Can't wait to read/listen to more of your work.

A Potter County grand jury has cleared three Amarillo police officers who last week shot and killed John Allen Smith.
Potter / Randall Special Crimes Unit Coordinator Lt. Ed Smith presented the case to the grand jury Thursday, along with the testimony of several civilian witnesses.
"The grand jury stated that the officers acted within the law and according to their training," Smith said.
The jury cleared officers Jason Riddlespurger, Hal Simpson and Thomas Hightower in the June 16 shooting death of Smith, who was 27.
The officers were involved in a foot chase with Smith, who led police on three high-speed chases in the two days before the shooting, when he turned on them and fired a shot in an alley between 17th and 18th avenues off Grand Street, said Amarillo Police Lt. Gary Trupe.
The shot missed all three officers, and they returned fire, hitting Smith several times, Trupe said.
Paramedics rushed Smith to Northwest Texas Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
The case will now be turned over to the state attorney general's office, which reviews all officer-involved shootings, Smith said.
The three officers will be cleared to return to duty, Smith said.

I'm surprised when any local investment firm, except for First Round Capital, closes on a new venture capital fund.
The Philadelphia area is far from the venture capital centers of Silicon Valley, New York, and Boston.
But there was Osage Venture Partners, of Bala Cynwyd, on Monday announcing that it had raised $66 million for its third fund.
Before you decide to ship the latest version of your business plan to Osage, it's worth knowing that the firm only invests in "early-stage enterprise software companies" in the mid-Atlantic region.

Alexis Ford Named Gtxxxtreme.Com "Starlet Of The Year" 2011!
Adam & Eve (www.AdamandEve.com) exclusive contract star Alexis Ford is starting off 2011 with a bang. Today she was named 2011 Starlet of the Year by favorite fan website www.GTXXXTREME.com!
"I'm speechless," said Ford, upon hearing the news. She recently appeared on the website as the first adult star featured in their popular 'Day in the Life' column.
"This is such an honor and a surprise," she continues. "It's just amazing to think that only a year ago I'd never even had a movie released. To be recognized as 'Starlet of the Year' like this is really a dream come true for me!"
"We are extremely proud of all that Alexis has accomplished in her short time in the adult business," said Katy Zvolerin, public relations director for Adam & Eve. "This time last year, she was a relative unknown. Now her fan base is huge and her movies with us are among out best sellers."
The blonde beauty, a native New Yorker, started her career with nude modeling and the occasional girl/girl scenes. Adam & Eve signed her in late 2008, and her first movie, "American Made: Alexis Ford," debuted in 2009. Since then, she's graced numerous magazine covers and has been nominated for multiple awards for the 2011 awards season.
"I want to thank GTXXXTREME.com for recognizing me in this way," adds Ford. "I really feel like the best is yet to come!"
For more information on Alexis Ford or Adam & Eve, please contact Adam & Eve public relations director Katy Zvolerin at 919.644.8100 x 3121 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Little tomatoes deliver big flavor
Sun Gold cherry tomatoes are a treasure -- and I don't think that's an over-the-top claim or hyperbole at all.
If you've had them, then you know: Just skip down to the recipe. If you haven't tasted them, then you must. The name is apt; they're liquid gold, distilled from sunshine. But you've got to find a good producer. (Those I've had from grocery stores cannot compete for flavor against Sun Golds directly from a farmer, but maybe you'll have better luck.)
If you taste one at a farmers market and it's not intensely flavored and wonderfully sweet, move on to the next grower.
After you've had your fill eating them out of hand, consider cooking with them. They are best when subjected just briefly to heat so that the sweetness is intensified but the freshness remains. Try the easy method here, in which just barely breaking-down Sun Golds create a sweet foil for savory sausage.

The Classic Struggle Between Meat Boy and Evil Fetus
Super Meat Boy is a furiously challenging 2D platformer. It features over 200 levels that constantly test the player's thumb-eye coordination and perseverance. To those who can muster the will to attempt what should be a 30-second-long level an embarrassing number of times, this game offers satisfaction rather than frustration. This is because it is very rare that victory comes through memorization (a la Mega-Man). Instead, the player only needs pixel-perfect platforming skills and the ability to identify the most effective way to reach a level's goal. This goal, by the way, is Bandage Girl, Meat Boy's significant other. In typical hard-to-get fashion, though, she is constantly being captured by the evil Dr. Fetus just prior to being rescued by her skinless lover. For fans of video game nostalgia, Super Meat Boy includes cut-scenes that parody classic game intros like Ninja Gaiden and Castlevania, as well as bonus levels that look like good old green-tinted Game Boy games. There are even secret characters from newer games like Tim from Braid and Commander Video. The visuals are colorful and creative, the soundtrack is truly fantastic, but the key to Super Meat Boy's success is its heaping portion of tough yet tightly polished platforming.

ZURICH, Switzerland - The Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Philadelphia Orchestra are bound to have ships-that-pass-in-the-night moments on their tours of European festivals, and the first was at the Zurich Airport on Sunday morning: The Chicagoans were emerging from the arrivals section of the airport while the Philadelphians were two levels up, going through security and passport control.
The Chicagoans were in transit to Lucerne from Salzburg, Austria, and the Philadelphians were shipping out from Lucerne to Dublin, Ireland, using the same buses and Air Berlin chartered airplane. Anticipating the near-miss, the Philadelphians wrote notes to their Chicago friends - "Best wishes," "Have a nice tour" - while on the bus between Lucerne and Zurich, and the messages were presented to a lost contingent of Chicagoans emerging from baggage claim by Katherine Blodgett, the Philadelphia Orchestra's vice president for public relations.

And despite some non-baseball weather, the valley was still on cloud nine as the number two ranked Lewis-Clark State College swept Missouri State University Billings in a four-game series this past weekend.
The Warriors took on the Yellow Jackets in two doubleheaders on Saturday and Sunday and rarely trailed against the division-two team. Game one saw a big solo home run by Jake Shirley and what would be the game winning RBI double by Kevin Hawk in the seventh to give the
The Warriors a 5-4 win. In game two, L-C had to overcome a four-run deficit, but after an offensive explosion, including home runs from Ryan Sells and Ty Jackson, eleven Warrior hits and six Yellow Jacket errors, L-C scored double digit runs to win big time, 20-6.
As for game three, the Yellow Jackets committed seven errors, and the Warriors saw a great pitching performance from Dillon Keene who only gave up five hits and two earned runs in five innings
To give L-C their third win of the weekend, 9-2. As for the rubber match, another masterful pitching performance for the warriors. This time from Gunnar Swanson who gave up one run while striking out seven in six innings, helping his team win 4-1. And for his efforts, also earned NAIA West Red Lion 'Pitcher of the Week' honors.
The 4-0 Warriors will take on Western Oregon in a four-game series at home.

Hewlett-Packard Australia 2133 Mini-Note PC (FH441PA)
A good looking, well-featured and affordable ultraportable
- Good performance, ExpressCard slot, 1280x768 resolution, big keys, 160GB hard drive
- Battery life, got noticeably warm after prolonged use, LEDs were distracting
Bottom Line
It's small, affordable and easy to use. Business users will appreciate the fast networking options and the ExpressCard slot. Travellers and students will love its large hard drive capacity and the fact that it's compact but still easy to use.
Price$ 999.00 (AUD)
Special Offers
While it has some similarities to the ASUS Eee PC, the Hewlett-Packard 2133 Mini-Note PC is a different beast altogether: it has a 5400rpm notebook hard drive instead of a solid-state drive, it has a higher screen resolution (despite being 8.9in in size), and it has huge keys! Not only that, it runs Windows Vista Business edition and it even has an ExpressCard slot.
Only the lack of a solid-state drive can be seen as a weakness — the hard drive's moving parts mean it can be damaged if you drop the Mini-Note — but this is off-set by the drive's comparably huge capacity of 160GB (the Eee PC 900 (Windows XP version) has only 12GB of space). In fact, this Mini-Note trumps the Eee PC in almost all areas; and it should, as it costs $999, whereas the Windows XP version of the Eee PC costs $599.
When it comes to processing power, the Mini-Note shuns Intel technology and instead favours a VIA C7-M 1.6GHz CPU, a VIA chipset and integrated graphics. With 2GB of DDR2 RAM installed (256MB of this is dedicated to the integrated graphics), it runs Windows Vista relatively swiftly, but don't rely on it for taxing tasks.
In our WorldBench 6 benchmark suite, which runs Photoshop, Microsoft Office, Firefox, Windows Media Encoder, WinZip and multitasking tests, the Mini-Note garnered a score of 29, which is very slow. In particular, it took 1900sec to finish the Photoshop test (most Core 2 Duo notebooks can do this in about 500sec), but it is impressive that it ran the test at all. It's not an ideal unit for multitasking, although you can work on documents or browse the Web while listening to music — you might find scrolling long documents to be a little slower while the music is playing.
Nevertheless, you can still load 10-megapixel photos easily and perform basic tasks on them, such as cropping and contrast adjustment. The Mini-Note will even play movies without any tearing or stuttering, and they'll look pretty good on the 8.9in screen. It has very good contrast, which makes colours look vivid, and it's also quite bright; however, its vertical viewing angle suffers from colour shift. The speakers on either side of the screen are loud and relatively clear for listening to music and watching videos, so there's no need to plug in a set of headphones (unless you don't want to disturb other people!).
Away from an outlet, the Mini-Note isn't overly impressive. Its three-cell battery has a rating of just 2700mAh (milliamp hours). In our worst-case scenario battery test (in which we loop a video and disabled power management), the unit lasted only 1hr 12min. This is almost exactly half the time of the Windows XP-based Eee PC, which has a battery rating of 4400mAh. So while working on the road you'll have to employ a smart power-saving strategy.
With a weight of only 1.2kg, you'll want to take this unit on the road with you often; it's very easy to use, despite being only 26cm wide and 17cm deep. Its keys are full-sized (apart from the arrow and function keys), so typing won't get tiring, and you won't be able to attribute spelling mistakes to a cramped keyboard! However, the implementation of big keys means that palm-rest space has been sacrificed; this may take some getting used to.
Navigation is by way of a Synaptics touchpad, which is wide and also takes some getting used to. Vertical movements are limited and the placement of the left- and right-click buttons either side of the pad is unnatural. We do appreciate the on/off button for the touchpad, which comes in handy when typing.
Getting online is easy thanks to the integrated 802.11a/b/g wireless networking module; the Mini-Note even has a Gigabit Ethernet port. There are only two USB 2.0 ports (one either side of the unit), but business users might appreciate the ExpressCard slot, which can be used to conveniently house a mobile data card, for example. An SD memory slot is present, and it also has a D-Sub port, and a built-in webcam.
While running office applications and browsing the Web for a prolonged period of time, the unit will get noticeably warm — especially at the front. This could become uncomfortable when using it on your lap. There is an exhaust fan on the side, and this runs relatively quietly.
On the underside of the notebook, there aren't any access panels. If you want to change the RAM or the hard drive, you have to remove the battery and unscrew and lift the keyboard. There is only one memory slot.
Physically, the unit feels solidly built and it looks good, too. Its screen is protected and has a slightly glossy finish, although this isn't a problem. However, we don't like the location of the power, hard drive and wireless networking LEDs on the front of the unit, as they are distracting.
When you weigh up the pros and cons of the Mini-Note, the pros tip the scale easily; the only real drawback is its poor battery life. We can safely say that if you're in the market for a new notebook for word processing and Web browsing that you can also easily carry to and from the office or the classroom, the Mini-Note is a worthwhile option.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
