NOT ONLY do they not embed the password into the url so I don't have to enter the damn thing manually, they make the password unintelligible, and when you FINALLY get the picture.. it's displayed in a FLASH OBJECT! And not even at full resolution!
Why in god's name would you put a picture in a flash object in the first place, and second why wouldn't you fix it when it's obvious that it's hindering millions of iphone / smartphone users?? AT&T sucks big ****. I don't know how they're surviving in the technology industry with idiots like theirs at the wheel.
Apple, Crapple, you get the point

Because not everyone has email on their phone
iEat. iSleep. iPhone.
It's people like you that are sitting at Apple finding excuses NOT to add standard features and instead to add **** like Google Street View who are hindering progress on what could be the end-all to cell phones. Having to 'adapt' to the missing features in an Apple product is why I've never, ever bought one prior to the iPhone.
Apple should work around what its' customers want in a phone, especially when the device is MORE than capable of doing it. Quit making excuses that people should have to adapt to the phone, simply because apple won't push a software update. You sound like an idiot.
My wife sent me a MMS and asked if I got it. How do you explain to someone the "most advanced phone" doesn't have a simple feature. She said whatever and walked away.
It's all part of apple consiracy to get everyone on an iPhone. If everyone has one then everything will be fine, but that's never gonna happen. It's gonna take forever for everyone to even have email on their phones.
I don't think that there will be mms or copy and paste until the next gen iPhone. Just as some stupid gimmic to sucker unsuspecting victims into lots of money for just a software update, and of course some other snazzy new features like maybe an upgraded camera.
Here's an idea, Einstein - seeing as how MMS is something that could easily be added as an additional feature via a software update, give me one reason why I shouldn't complain about it. In fact, give me a good reason Apple even put a camera on the damn phone. I can't send a picture to someone else.. I can't take video without hacking it even though I have 8gb of space to play with.. why is it there?
While you're at it.. explain to me why this so-called idiot got a thank you on my first post to this forum. Maybe I should be a moderator...
Oh and before you reply back with your miserable "you can send a picture via e-mail" excuse, I'll go ahead and refute that one. I bought the world's most advanced phone. It being so, I should NOT have to send my grandma and every other friend and family member a guide on how to add an e-mail account to their respective phones, should I decide to go sending them a picture all willy nilly. Nor should THEY have to deal with down-arrowing through their hoardes of spam to find whatever the hell it is I send them.
Your arguments are terrible and you know it. If you want to sit by idly and accept the iPhone's faults, then do just it and quit refuting people with valid points.
Happy Noodle Boy (2008-11-25), jaysh (2008-11-27)
It's a give and take, buddy. Other phones can do video, mms, copy/paste, and homework. Yet none of those phones have the iPhone OS, AppStore, and everything else the iPhone comes with.
Apple never put the camera as a big priority. Even when the 2G came out the camera was hardly the best in the market. It was meant to take a quick snap here and there, not to be a replacement to a real camera.
MMS has been argued to the ground, so I don't see why I should add to it but whatever. MMS is simply not in part of Apple's vision. Same reason they have one button mouse and all the other things that make it stand apart from Windows and the rest. They obviously feel e-mail is superior and the phone does a great job at that.
If you want to blame someone for MMS, blame AT&T. I guarantee you a lot of the people complaining would stop is viewmymessage.com was updated for iPhones.
Oh my, you got a thanks with your first post, congratulations! You really are the jewel of the desert. Let me help you make the number just a little bit higher so you can go to sleep knowing that you have been thanked in an internet forum.
And you bought the most advanced phone. You don't see other phones out there with half the applications/games the iPhone has now. And holy god are you seriously arguing against e-mail messaging because of SPAM? You must be some elaborate troll because I honestly cannot believe you call my arguments terrible when you throw me a point that hasn't been an issue for years if you know basic computer skills and/or have a gmail account (which are free and even my own grandmother has one, and she's as computer knowledgeable as a rock)
Well, HNB ATT had the ability to get service for 3 iphones from my family. They blew it. As a matter of fact their new ATT service is going to be cancelled and reverted back to verizon.
The camera is mediocre, at best, my wife wants MMS and wants to hear her phone ring.
As great as the iphone is, in some eyes, themost significant short comings are the basics.
Blame MMS on ATT. you obviously don't read too many posts on this place. Being a Noob one can only conclude that MMS is not everywhere and ATT is not the only carrier providing this service. So am I to conclude ATT is influencing Swedish-Finnish carrier Telia decision to not offer MMS service until now?
I do not understand why ATT would be so reluctant NOT to offer a service that the phone is so capable of providing.
Perhaps I will just settle for the sports car with snow tires.

lol, that's a good analogy, and the same way I feel about it. Basics have come to be known as such because it's assumed they'll be there.
Although I will not refute that e-mail is better than MMS for some things, most of which are better suited for a computer, any idiot will agree that MOST phones are not equipped to view text email properly, let alone one containing a graphic or attachment. In regard to the spam comment, you know what I meant. I receive about 20 emails a day, and even without spam, anyone with a "normal" phone shouldn't have to hunt and peck through that sh!t looking for a picture that their phone has been designed to receive in a standard format, as an INSTANT message. It's the same reason Apple saw fit to support the TXT functionality and made an app for it, rather than telling me to use e-mail instead. When I send a pic to your grandmother, wouldn't it be great for her to hit Accept instead of have to log into gmail? Wouldn't a notification be nice rather than hoping she decides to check her e-mail? E-mail is not a replacement for MMS, and even Apple wouldn't dare to make that argument.
As for the camera, NO cell phone places emphasis on the camera! All of them are hellacious, and the iPhone actually has one of the better ones I've ever seen! This again, is not a valid argument. Other companies managed to have MMS functionality even if their camera was terrible. My argument wasn't that the camera isn't a suitable replacement for a digital camera.. no phone is. Way to miss the point though.
While you're correct there would be a lot less b!tching if viewmymessage.com didn't suck, that again is not the point. I had never even heard of viewmymessage.com prior to owning an iPhone, because with all the half-assed phones I've ever had with Cingular, all of them were able to receive MMS! vmm.com was initially designed to help people who had sh!t phones that can barely even receive text. If Apple thought to give me a PDF plugin viewer, there's no reason they couldn't spend a few minutes writing the MMS protocol into the TXT app.
I'm done with you Noodle Boy.. you're just going to make a sad attempt at refuting anything I say, when your arguments don't make a lick of sense to anyone but yourself.
Sorry but MMS is a basic feature which ALLLLL phones have these days (except iphone that is). I'm sick of apple including pointless things into their updates (such as the latest google street view crap) and continue to ignore the very basics. They get away with this purely because they are apple and the fanboys let them get away with whatever they want. If Nokia or SE were to release a phone with no MMS etc it would bomb. In order to use MMS i have to jailbreak my phone, pay $8 for swirly and lie to my network provider (o2 uk) by telling them that i also use another phone so that they enable MMS on my account.
If only we were all so lucky.. I've battled with AT&T countless times trying to get them to enable MMS. It's hopeless, even when telling them I want to use another phone, they claim their system won't give them the option to add MMS without removing the iPhone data plan entirely. I've pondered over it forever trying to figure out if there is a way I can trick them into enabling it, because obviously there are people on ATT using swirly. If anyone has any advice, it'd be much appreciated.
ALL THIS IS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. IF YOU CALL ATT&T, THEY SAID THAT THE IPHONE DOESNOT HAVE THE CAPABILITIES TO SUPPORT MMS, IF YOU CALL APPLE THEY SAID THAT ATT&T HAVE THE RATE PLAN RESTRICTED AND DONT WANT TO CHANGE THE DATA PLAN FOR A MEDIA NET WHICH ARE THE SAME/ COMPARE TO A BLACKBERRY 9000 BOLT(NEW THAT CAME OUT FROM ATT&t AND HAVE ALMOST THE SAME AS IPHONE EXCEPT TOUCH SCREEN) GOT THE POINT. IPHONE IS CAPABLE OF DOING ALL AND MORE... ATT&T DOESNOT WANT TO CHANGE THE RATE PLAN TO ALLOW MMS. SO SIMPLE.
While I accept that MMS may not be a massive thing in the US, in Europe it is VERY big. Its used by a large % of mobile phone users in many of the main countries. Europe is MUCH more expensive users of txt & mss. You don't want to know how many txts some of the Scandinavian countries sent.
The fact the phone does not have MMS DOES put off buyers, I know many in the UK that just write it off due to it, with it they would have had a good chance of a sale but its a big blocking point.
Personally I don't get the issue for Apple. Others have coded apps (SwirlyMMS) so why don't Apple just agree to it. A) Apple sell more iPhone = more market share and money, B) Operators will make more money due to people sending more MMSs
why in the world would phone companies want use email. Email is far more costly than messaging. Messaging the message is received by the host, relayed and cleared. Email is routed. Stored, replicated thru out the hosts email server network. Held there until the recipient deletes the item tieing up server space, back up space and so on.
Now my email is being clogged up by messages where on multiple computers and iphone. As opposed to the message going to my phone i look at it keep or delete locAlly at no additional cost to att or another email service.
Att doesnt charge for an email but would charge for a mms. So push people to use email at ATT expense or ATT gets more money from subscribers. Well we know what route ATT has chosen. And people wonder why american banks and industry needs nearly a trillion dollars to avoid collaspe. Unreal

The eldest living descendant of France's King Henry IV appears to be a 48-year-old lawyer in Bhopal, India. Prince Michael of Greece "discovered" Balthazar Napoleon de Bourbon's ancestral ties while researching a book, though the supposed heir's family had previously attempted to gain recognition.
BHOPAL, India—An Indian lawyer and part-time farmer says his lineage traces back to the Bourbon kings of France and that he has been flooded with calls and visitors after reports he may be first in line to the throne.
Balthazar Napoleon de Bourbon says he is a descendant of Jean de Bourbon, thought to be a nephew of the first French Bourbon king, Henry IV, who ruled France in the last few years of the 16th century.
Balthazar lives in a crowded neighbourhood of Bhopal and has become a mini-celebrity there since reports that Prince Michael of Greece—who is said to consider Balthazar as his cousin—recently traced him in a historical novel called "Le Rajah Bourbon" to Jean de Bourbon.

Hey all,
Its time to get new suspension on the motor, the old oem's are getting tired and I guess everything under there will be tired too! so Im hoping you guy's can help me on a suspension decision whether it be coilovers or strut/spring setup.
My aim is to have a decent daliy drive/track car that I can take on road trips to the nurburgring (without breaking my arse! or getting beached on a speedbump!) but having a setup thats good to take it on?!?!
The car is getting old and for me its just not worth spending crazy cash on suspension for a 1995 devaluing 3.0 m3.
I thought about new oem's Sachs-Boge type and after market springs if it would do a decent job?? Ive already bought RSM and plan to get it freshly polybushed.
I have looked at the group buys on at the moment but also want to know about other makes what you guys the tryed and tested drivers think?
800 quid budget, cheaper the better, No Rubbish!!
let me know you choice and why

If you smell yummy spices swirling through the air, perhaps feel a fresh cold breeze kiss your skin, you know that it's that Thanksgiving time of year again. Thanksgiving is the time for apple pies, carving pumpkins and of course the turkey, and sending out Thanksgiving cards. Thanksgiving cards offered by Tiny Prints go above and beyond your usual Thanksgiving card because the Tiny Prints focus is on the Thanksgiving photo card. The Tiny Print difference begins with offering you a plethora of Fall colors from which you can choose - beautiful shades of red, dark green, bronze and many more. If you are having trouble choosing a color, then think of your favorite color of leaf when all the leaves change and fall from the trees in the Autumn.
And since the holidays are right around the corner, be sure to browse through our stunning personalized Christmas cards. More Thanksgiving Cards:

"I ordered this card and used sepia photos of my kids. The finished product was absolutely stunning. I am so pleased with the quality of tinyprints' products and with their service."
"I loved this card! The picture I wanted to use was a tight frame of my baby's face and it cropped into this card nicely (parts of her face were covered by other designs I tried). I did change the back of the card to a plain brown so that I could write a personal message there to those I was sending them to. We don't live near family and cannot make the long trip for every holiday. By receiving this card, they will know they are loved, and in some small way- it's like we are there, hanging from a magnet on their fridge! :)"
"I ordered this design because it really says it all. I'm so very thankful... for my sweet baby boy. I added a cute portrait on the front and two pics of him eating his first solids on the back. These will be a hit with the Grannies and Grampies!"
"As with all Tiny Prints cards this card's paper and print quality are superior. I love the layout as the boxes on the front are all different sizes so it gives the card a nice custom, layered look. The optional customized back gives it an even more unique touch. I am 110% satisfied with this card."
"I made this a Halloween card instead of a Thanksgiving card...used a pic of my baby in his 1st Halloween costume and sent out to family and friends. It looks great!"

The Tug of War
By Joseph Lisanti
In his April 20 appearance before Congress, Alan Greenspan observed that "threats of deflation...are no longer an issue." Stocks promptly headed down because investors interpreted the statement as subtle assurance of an interest rate increase. The market stabilized the next day when the Fed chairman eased investors' fears by noting that inflation pressures did not appear to be building.
That deflation is no longer a worry should not come as a surprise. On the other hand, Greenspan's comments on inflation may puzzle anyone who has bought gas for the family car recently. Part of the disconnect is the way that the consumer price index is calculated. The "core" CPI excludes food and energy costs because they are deemed too volatile.
As a result, the 22% rise in the national average price of regular gasoline since the start of 2004 isn't captured in the core CPI rate. Increases in the prices of everyday purchases like gas make some individuals believe that inflation is higher than the government indicates. Whatever the belief of most investors, it is clear that the economy is growing, and the pricing of many products and services is becoming firmer. That leads us to conclude that the Fed is likely to raise short-term rates from their 46-year low, perhaps as early as June.
Right now, the market is being pulled in two directions, with bears focusing on the prospect of higher interest rates and bulls concentrating on strong corporate earnings. Standard & Poor's equity analysts believe that, when the current reporting period is over, the S&P 500 will have posted a 20% year-over-year increase in operating earnings for the first quarter of 2004. They see almost as large a gain in the second quarter.
Although higher interest rates are not a plus for equities, we think that the strong earnings picture will support stocks. We expect the S&P 500 to post a 9% advance in 2004.

priyanka, how do you do it? How do you even remember?? Loving this blog!!
@ anon
Like Payal said before..remembering is easy, its finding evidence that kills us! Glad you enjoy the blog..keep coming back!
I am a little sad with this post. On one hand starlets/has-beens/wannabes are shot down for having the money to buy expensive bags (see the recent anupama verma post), but then again they are booed when they repeat accessories/outfits. What are people to do when they are trying for roles and do not have that much money? Everyone is not lucky to be born in a rich family and some people just decide to spend there money in a more sane way than give it to already super rich western designers.
I understand when it is people like karishma with money and fame repeating in a span of week. But all these starlets may not have all the money. Think before you make your snarky comments
@ Anon #2
Most of the posts on this blog are meant o be taken in a lighter vein and with a pinch of salt :) I am not commenting on the fact that she doesn't have the money to buy more clutches (which am sure she has) nor is it a commentary on one's financial choices (of how they decide to spend their money)… it is just a fun 'point' at 'look they repeat too'!!
I however can neither justify nor take accountability for how other readers choose to 'comment' on a post!!
she looks pretty in photos…but Have seen her in person and she is even better…pretty lady…lucky man who married her….
Her corset dress looks stunning….the other dress is also very attractive ..i guess its monisha jaisingh's collection… she looks very attractive as always…

Postal CJ
I've browsed this forum a few times and really like it. Decided to share my wheeling rig with you guys, maybe get some tips and ideas along the way.
I'll keep this post shortish. I just built my postal last year, but after wheeling it a couple times its not good enough. Gearing isn't low enough and its too tippy. Thats why I'm tearing into it again. I got it as a Postal DJ body on a CJ frame. So I swapped the steering over to normal left hand drive in the body to match the frame. With the clutch linkage this was much easier and saved me money up front. Got it with no motor, t90, and d18. I put spacers on the stock axles and slapped my 33's on. Stock F head was installed, then power steering. Fuel cell cut into floor. There was a 3" body lift in it as well, helped it fit the frame. But after the first trip I cut it down to about 1/2" because it was too tall.
I've now picked up an AMC T18 with granny gear, d20, GM 4.3l Vortec, ford 8.8 rear end, scout 2 d44 front end, and I wanted to go spring over to get some flatter springs. I think I'll keep my RC 4" yj lift leafs though because it'll be much easier. And it'll likely get to see a trail again this year if I keep my spring under setup, since I haven't found any close to me stock yj leafs. Hopefully the wiring for the 4.3 isn't too much of a problem.
picking it up
body lift was stupid tall, was removed after first wheeling trip
Too narrow
picked up some more tubing to build the cage, I got scared a couple times of flipping it on the last trail. Was very close to it. Then someone flipped over right in front of me on the way out, it was a great excuse and motivator to build my cage.
then some spray paint
getting the 4.3l out, what a pain it is to pull these motors..
|September 1st, 2012, 09:24 PM
So far on the rebuild I've gotten the front scout 2 dana 44 knuckles turned, bolted the front and rear axles up, finally got my Novak stuff figured out after incorrect shipments and studs breaking so the motor and trans are bolted together, twin sticked the dana 20 case, and I put the motor/trans/tcase in the jeep. I welded up the front motor mounts and got that done. The setup is up and back as far as possible, but afterwards I noticed that the stupid oil pan is like 5" below the frame rails And I need to bend the levers back so that when they are in the forward positions they don't smack my knuckles into the dash. So tomorrow I think I'm going to chop my motor mounts out as well as the tunnel so I can get them back farther and up higher. I'm going to measure the drive shafts and see if this is a good idea first though, and maybe get a second opinion. I also installed a TJ rear bumper with tire carrier.
8.8 perches
outboarding front leafs
finished the knuckles with my new welder
tire carrier
two sticks!
spent about 2 hours trying to get these two things together
then put it in and made the mounts

Thanks for the compliments! Today a friend and I got most of the wiring done, just need to clean up old wiring pretty bad. I also noticed my rear axle isn't straight! Not sure where the issue is yet, but I seems like it is in the mounting spots on the leaf where the axle sits. Never noticed/had this issue with the last axle. But the shims aren't in the same location relative to the spring pads on the axle tube. I'm going to pull the shims anyways and I'll investigate further then. Hoping to start it up this weekend and replace my rear end gears.
|September 8th, 2012, 05:26 PM
Been working on this the past two days attempting to get it ready to start up. Attempting to start it now, but the starter isn't kicking in. I think that thing is fried. Fuel pump sounds good the first time it starts up, then after that when it kicks on it sounds like the battery is dead. It's still over 12v though.
everything in had to move the shackle mounts forward and screwed up their placement. Going to have to build mounts into a front bumper
moved my wheel up so the tilt was useful.
and how it's sitting now.

Finally got the damn thing started. The wiring got mixed up and the ecu was not getting power under cranking.
I'm waiting on gears for my dana 44 front and a new press. Then I'll finish my rear end and start my front.
|September 13th, 2012, 10:27 PM
8.8 drive gear teeth. Some look really good, some don't really look that good.
coating teeth
The gears are used. Based on the coasting pattern I think thats as good as it gets. The drive pattern is a little towards the inside of the gear. The paperwork I have says that the pinion depth is good in terms of the coast pattern. But based on a majority of the drive patterns it says add backlash. Backlash is already at .010 though, so I'm going to leave it as is I think.
|September 15th, 2012, 08:41 PM
After putting my new bearings on it was all dickered up. Got is as good as I thought I could. Got the d44 re-geared this morning too. Hoping tomorrow after I get off work that I can redo my front leaf mounts to move them back an inch or so. I'd love to have my jeep on tires and ready to go in that sense in a couple days. Getting tired of working on this in all my spare time though, really need to just get it done though.
|September 17th, 2012, 11:00 PM
Got the clutch linkage built today, need some adjustment so it fully disengages though. Put the front driveshaft in as well. Tomorrow I should be able to get quite a few more things checked off my list of things to-do.
Also looking at some 80% tread, 38.5x14.5 Swamper SX's. Seem to be a fair price, and there are 5 of them. I'd rather have 35-37's but this seems like they would be perfect. I don't have any experience, but it sounds like I should be alright with my axles and them if I'm just crawling around like I usually do.
|September 19th, 2012, 02:22 PM
Seems like I've got a working clutch linkage, it's not top notch by any means but works. Hopefully works without fussing too
Picked up some cool stuff last night! 38.5x14.5 swamper sx on wheels and a 1979 Rockwood drill press. Press is like new! I've also got a question concerning my suspension. The jeep leans to the drivers side pretty good. I double checked and all my perches are the same distance apart and I even swapped leafs from one side to the other. It still leans. There really isn't any weight thats more on one side or the other either. The shackles show the lean with an increased angle as well.
|September 19th, 2012, 04:47 PM
They are all loose. I can double check the back, but the front isn't even tight. I'm fairly certain the back is in the same situation though, not even tight. I flipped the rear springs around first and didn't get a change. Then I switched the front springs around with no change either.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'TiVo Home Media Features & TiVoToGo' started by Yoav, Dec 10, 2008.
Based on the output above, doesn't it look as though I have PIL installed?
from this chunk
I would guess you do.. You can always verify by checking that there is something in that directory .
However, a 'clean' mac has nothing in site-packages. And I'd rather not tell people 'to use photos, you must go install PIL and whatever requirements it has'.
That said, in an earlier message wmcbrine pointed at a build of PIL that has all non-default dependencies linked in, which I am now toying with. So if it works out, I'll just include it, and hopefully it will get things working.. (building stuff right now).
Ok, so I just integrated the PIL build, and photos are working...
So next build of pyTivo should do photos fine..
Thanks for catching it...
Will pyTiVoX somehow install the pkg that was referenced earlier? Will I need to "uninstall" the library that I've already installed?
It will 'just work' (it will include the necessary files in the pyTivoX.app bundle).
You do not need to install or uninstall anything
If you feel like trying it out, download the latest beta...
edit: I should point out the latest beta has the latest code of a bunch of things, including
pytivo, ffmpeg (+underlying libs), streambaby, etc...
Downloading it now...I'll let you know if it works for me.
It worked! Thanks a lot! BTW, I also tried out the streaming feature and it rocks. Be sure to let me know when you release an official version. I'd love to mention it on my blog.
Also, what does "videoytivo" mean in the type column? How is it different than just "video"?
I may have spoke too soon . StreamBaby is saying that most of my directories don't contain any video. Thus far I've only gotten it to work with one directory where I have .mp4 files.
does streambaby only work with h.264 encoded content?
If you do some Google or forum searches on this you'll find the answer. There's an error in the Tivo firmware that flips some bits in the AAC codec or something like that. There's a script you can run on your Mac that flips the bits so it works with Tivo. I did it last spring when I got my TivoHD and I forgot the exact details but it works just fine.
Just curious - is this PPC Macs you're talking about and the big endian/little endian difference between PPC and x86? All my Macs are Intel-based now; but I do remember (unrelated to Tivo) occasionally having to do some "endian magic" with some music files - specifically when I was trying to make ringtones for my phone on my old Powerbook.
It was requested that I allow you to specify some directories to be served by pytivo only, and some by streambaby only. I'm still debating removing this since it feels more like it's confusing than useful (again, simple program for people who don't want advanced features...).
Is it listing nothing? I believe streambaby only lists files that end with a file extension that matches any of these (from the wiki):
extensions= (default:mp4,mpeg,vob,mpg,mpeg2,mp2,avi,wmv,asf)
Ok the wiki is a little out of date, I believe mkv was added to that list. Do your filenames match that? It will only 'as-is' stream mpeg-2 and mp4 (h264/aac-ac3) files, but other files it will gladly convert on the fly and stream...
However, things are still being ironed out .
Oh and did you hit 'apply' after changing your lists of directories?
Hmm.. I have an intel mac and haven't had any issues with AAC (except for that problem I mentioned earlier when streaming as-is h.264/AAC, it got dropped to 2-channel even though the aac source was 5.1).
Sorry I wasn't clear (and it was asked simply out of curiosity anyway) - then endian issues were back when I was on a PPC-based Powerbook. PPC uses Big Endian architecture while x86 is Little Endian. Actually I think PPC CPUs can go either way, but PPC Macs ran in Big Endian mode by default. IIRC I used to have to tell lame to output in Little Endian mode if I wanted the ringtones to play at all on my phone.
But it sounds like this wasn't even related to the problem mentioned anyway.
Designbot may be referring to encrypted AAC files, which won't work with pyTivo. Unencrypted AAC should play (transcoded to MP3 on the fly with ffmpeg).
I'm really finding the feature useful, but then I requested it. Maybe if the option was video:stream, video:now playing, video:both that would clarify. I won't die if you remove the feature, but I will cry a little.
On an unrelated note, I downloaded the latest beta, and now the stuff I stream only goes for 5 minutes and then the TiVo drops back into Live TV. I tried a number of videos, rebooted the TiVo and restarted pyTiVoX and the result is consistent. It's like the TiVo doesn't realize streambaby is doing something.
Unhandled idle events. See the Streambaby thread... I don't think he's made changes in that area yet (?), so it's probably just bad luck that you're seeing it now.
I just installed pyTivoX yesterday for the StreamBaby capabilities on my Mac. I am seeing the same behavior also (plays for 5 minutes then kicks out to Live TV). I can go back into the file and it gives me the option to resume playback at the point I was kicked out and the show resumes at the right spot.
I have also noticed that if I play a show but hit Left to go back to the previous menu, about 3 out of 5 times, the pyTivoX StreamBaby menu item disappears from the choices of HME items. The only way to get it back is to go to my Mac and open the config menu and hit 'Apply' and it comes back to life.
I suspect latest pyTivoX streambaby portion may have been built based on current SVN code from streambaby which has wrong fix for idle handling.
It indeed does use the latest svn code (yay beta). Any idea when that will be fixed? I can drop it back to 0.19, but it seems like plenty of nice new things were added....
edit: Well given that the choice is between only working for 5 minutes or losing some nifty new features... I'd guess people prefer the working . So I'll go build another beta right now... (should be up in a few minutes).

The reason that the nano needs iTunes 8 is so that it can show off another new feature, Genius mode. Genius mode let's your iPod decide what you want to listen to next, by cueing up tracks in a similar genre or tempo. Apple is by no means the first to come up with this kind of feature, and I can't say I'm a fan of the concept. Personally I prefer to listen to the music I want to listen to, rather than what my player thinks is best - isn't that what playlists are for after all?
Battery life for music playback is an admirable 24 hours, just like the outgoing model, but strangely video playback is only four hours on a full charge, as opposed to the five hours offered by the third generation model. Of course this reduction could be attributed to the more svelte dimensions and lighter weight than the outgoing nano, but then I would have expected music playback time to suffer too. The new nano retains the fast charge ability of its predecessor, which means it can go from empty to 80 per cent charged in only 1.5 hours, with a full charge taking three hours. The quick charge is pretty handy if you know you're going on a trip and forgot to charge your iPod overnight.
In the box you'll find a pair of Apple earbuds, which are best left untouched. You also get an iPod docking cable, and a docking plate, so that the nano will sit comfortably in a speaker dock. Unfortunately, Apple only supplies a white docking plate, so if your speaker dock happens to be black, it's going to clash somewhat. Of course if you buy yourself a B&W Zeppelin, then you won't need a docking plate at all.
The 8GB version of the nano that I'm looking at here can be had for £104, which seems like pretty good value to me. Yes there are small 8GB players on the market that cost less, but none of them are quite as cool as the nano, or feature a navigation method as good as Apple's wheel. Ultimately, if you need a small and stylish player and have £100 burning a hole, the nano should be high on your list.
There's no doubt that the fourth generation iPod nano is the best so far. The design is beautiful, even by Apple's high standards, and the user interface is as intuitive as it always was. Crossfade is superb, and makes listening on shuffle even more enjoyable, but the nano still lacks some of the features seen on competing devices, like an FM tuner. The nano also looks a little pricey on paper compared to other players, but then no other player is as thin, light and stylish as this one.
Sound quality isn't quite up there with the best players available, but I'm sure that the vast majority of non-audiophile users will be more than happy with it. Pair the nano with a pair of Klipsch Image earphones and you'll have the perfect combination of small, light and comfortable mobile listening. My trips to the gym just won't be the same once Apple picks up the nano.

Hey Riyad, do you by any chance own an iPhone? You should probably mention it four or five more times, y'know, just to avoid confusion.
Nice review, though with all the drawbacks you mention I'm a bit dubious as to the headline score. Would you have been as generous if it came in a Technika box?
iTunes and sound quality are the deal breakers for me, though it is very pretty.
"Could this be the coolest music player available?"
Definately No. Other players have come light years since the last gen.
Best nano ever, yes maybe....still prefer the phat version.
I don't know how others but I use mp3 players, while commuting, taking public transportation or traveling. I must admit that for commuting I do not need all my music. In the last then years I spent a lot on mp3 players from Creative, Apple, Iriver etc... Once I tunes ruined my music library since than I keep all my music on a dedicated hard drive ( even iPod classic would be to small anyway...)Since most mid class cell phones have mp3 players I happily marched out from the stand alone media player business! Your phone has it anyway, no missed calls, less gizmo in your pocket! I used Sony and Samsung phones and I was glad with them, I might risk the new touch screen Nokia, btw iPhone contracts are just plain for the birds at least here in Hungary, how it is on the "Islands"?))
Tim - with the iPhone being the halo product for Apple right now, it seemed to make sense to compare where necessary. Besides, I wouldn't show off about my iPhone since it's only a 1st gen, which means I have to stand in the car park to make a phone call :(
The scores reflect the fact that most consumers out there are more than satisfied with the sound quality offered by an iPod, and most of them are still using the bundled earbuds! Yes I personally hate iTunes, and would rather be able to drag and drop my music, but I'm not the average consumer, and I suspect that neither are you :)
localhero - I agree with much of what you're saying, which is why I use an iPhone. It allows me to listen to my music without missing any calls, and doesn't make me use a horrible interface like most so called music phones. However, if I'm going for a run, or to the gym, the iPhone is a bit big and heavy, so something like a nano is preferable. And of course, I don't want to answer the phone when I'm at the gym!
A little mathematical anomaly: the average score is 8.25, how is that good enough for a TR recommendation? Ahhh, forgot it... Apple product...
You're assuming the overall scores are an average, which they aren't. Moreover, we frequently award products "Recommended" awards with an 8/10 score.
For example, the Creative Zen Stone averages 7.67 and has a recommendation.
I don't think it's a good idea to be telling people you rip all your music to 320kbps MP3s. MP3 is really getting on now, and isn't a smart choice for quality. In a blind listening test I found AACs at 192kbps offered a similar level of quality to 320kbps MP3s, and that a 320kbps AAC was close to indistinguishable from the source. Of course, blind listening is all dependant on the person, the headphones/speakers, amplifiers etc. I personally blind tested on some Shure SE420s plug in to an Auzen X-FI Prelude with an in line attenuator, as I was going to be using the Shures with the AAC compression in my iPhone; my music is all ripped to my desktop in Apple Lossless (I found flac, either in the encoding or decoding, was changing to dynamic range compared to the source CD). I would advise everyone blind tests when deciding what encoding to use, and there are a number of free programs to do so.
As I'm rambling a bit now I'll shut up.
I'd question whether most people's mobile phones have a better screen. It's QVGA, few mobile phones (with the exception of smartphones) get higher than that.
Stephen - you're missing the point. I was saying that I rip everything at 320kbps MP3 because it's the best quality format that I know is supported by EVERY device. The library that I have on my NAS box at home, will also be encoded in FLAC, but I need a version that I can play, no matter what device I'm using.
Take in-car stereos for instance. The majority of them will now allow you to use CDs loaded with MP3 files - not AAC, not WMA, not FLAC, just MP3. So if you want to listen to your music in your car, you're going to need a version of it in MP3.
Sockatume - Yes, most mobile phones have the same resolution as the nano, but many of them have a larger screen that will be better for looking at photos.
Good review & I agree with most of it. It's not on everyone's wish-list but an FM tuner would be a very welcome addition next year.
I didn't want to spent too much on headphones and I believe the excellent Sennheiser CX 300's are exceptional value at around 㾾 from the likes of Play & Amazon. I thought I'd recommend them to those not wishing to spend a fortune...
@Hugo: if anything, I would have assumed that the sounds quality is the factor that matters most on a device that is designed for listening to music. Probably format support... or how easy it is to get your songs onto the device... Still can't see the reason for the recommendation.
Riyad, I think it was more I was missing the information that you rip everything to a NAS in flac :)
@ Singularity "Still can't see the reason for the recommendation."
It's a bloody brilliant bit of kit. It's not perfect but what is? Do you own one?
Agreed, it might not be the best when it comes to sound quality, but it does look like a pretty complete package. I dont particularly like the Apple approach to their product lines, a bit of an understatement infact, but i do realise that a lot of people out there are not as involved in the technical know how of their audio equipment, and are rather just looking for the best overall package.
I'm still going to buy the Sony NWZ-A829, for the exceptional sound quality ofcourse,
(unless something else comes out soon to beat it ;)), but this does look like a pretty tempting player.
Nice review.
Pretty easy setup: take any WM phone with decent storage (Samsung Omnia jumps to mind), install pocket player (plays any format including flac). You can drag'n'drop your music onto it, sound quality is superb. The best part: cost is fraction of the nano, and there is no crippling iTunes.
Yes, that sounds good, too much like hard work though! I guess I'm shallow, I choose my MP3 players like I choose women, looks first & the stuff on the inside is very much secondary ;)
Sorry, but I simply can't agree with the value score you gave this, I agree with sound quality and usability, but 8 for value? This nano gives you very few features, and although 𧴡 for 8GB doesn't seem bad when you find the the Clix 2 or Cowon D2 8GB are around 𧴺. However the Clix 2 and D2 both come with a wealth of extra features that I believe are worth the premium. The nano however? 𧴡 for 8GB, average sound quality, small average screen quality, bad bundled earphones and missing simple features. How can it score an 8 when similar 8GB players from iRiver or Sansa top out at around 䀁-90, and these cheaper players offer much more in the way of features, sound quality, expandability and Sansa recently added FLAC and OGG playback to their 8GB player.
Considering the competition, I can't see how the Nano could score more then a 6 value wise.
1. You assume the sound output circuits on all WM phones are up to scratch? Bad idea.
2. iTunes is not crippling. It is a shame that it is nowhere near as responsive on Windows as it is on OS X though.
3. How much is your average WM phone sim free again?
4. Pocket Player does not play any format (MP3, WMA, WMV, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, and WAV is not any format).
5. Pocket Player is not free.
6. Pocket Player would look better if someone vomited on the screen.
I hear you ;) I guess it's because of the difference in amount of time you spend with your MP3 player (and the slightly different functionality) that I would perhaps recommend considering a different approach.
Btw, all the hustle with iTunes is way more work than connecting your phone to the PC and double click once to run the installation.
Yes, I quite like iTunes too, although I agree, it's not as good on Windows as it is on the Mac. The only player I've found that comes close to it is Foobar2000 but that takes a lot of fiddling about with (I'm sure linux users will mention Amarok).
Anyway, it's either the new Nano or a new graphics card for me this Christmas.
Another Apple product with a flurry of comments! Personally I really like the apple range of MP3 player ect and theres one main reason for that, iTunes. It makes the ipod so much easier to use for the average user.
Thing is, I doubt any of these comments will change people opinion about Apples products however it does bother me a little bit when people post to say that the original writer is wrong, this website employs people to give their OPINION on the products, and thats what this is, the writers opinion. So you cant say that it is wrong. It is YOUR opinion that THEIR opinion is wrong, not their opinion that is wrong.
I think you should have a look at MediaMonkey; a quite outstanding player/organizer. Should you want video as well, I would recommend WinAmp; however for music only I have yet to come across a program that can match the MM.
I for one wont be buying an Ipod from the UK which is more expensive, and has a lower specification than the US model.
On that note can somebody please remind me why France has suddenly started showing such a loving concern for our welfare by imposing a volume cap (20% I believe) on EU models rendering the Ipods useless in busy environments? Its my hearing and my business what I do with it. Whats next, banning the sale of matches and lighters just in case somebody accidentally burns themselves? Nanny state argghh.
I just bought the new Nano (my fourth iPod). To be honest I was really interested in some alternatives like the Zune and one of the new Sony's. They have more features and are supposed to be great but at the end of the day the iPod is just the easy choice. Everything works brilliantly. iTunes is a dog but all my music and playlists are set up and ready to sync. The sound quality is good enough for my ears too. You just can't go wrong with an iPod.
Next time I'm gonna have a change.
There's some sort of volume limit setting in the menu so I think you can make it louder to some extent.
would it make more sense if the 4th generation nano gets its recommendation compared to the 3rd generation? in that respect, the value point would make sense, as the 8GB version of that is far cheaper than the original, plus offers better features, and has exceptional build quality (scratch proof aluminium all around)
on a side note, i would like a one off ipod review where sound quality through a line out dock connected to a portable amplifier (cmoy, voyager, anything) compared to using the players built in amplifier. i've taken the plunge and bought a 120GB classic. i've also considered aline out dock to an amplifier, just to see if it'll improve audio quality a little. and so the volume doesn't turn up in my pocket.

A blanket of snow has the ability to brighten the dreariest of days. And, despite school closures and tricky driving, a snow-covered landscape proves to be quite beautiful. It's not so bad for the plants either, so don't be tempted to knock the snow off drooping branches.
Snow has an insulating effect which is particularly useful when we do have frigid temperatures. Ground level snow will actually protect the roots and crowns of perennial and woody plants, but you may notice a little burn above the snow level when it comes to broadleaf evergreens.

House Rules: Charms
- The Charm changes from the Players Guide apply to all Charms unless otherwise stated.
- Ferocious Biting Sword: The mote cost of the charm is now 3, not 4.
- Deadly Beastman Transformation: This Charm is nullified under the Majestic Totem Aspect rules for Lunars.
- (De)Materialize: The cost to (de)materialize for elementals and spirits is now calculated by dividing the spirit/elemental's entire Essence Pool by four, rounded up.
- Example: The Branch Maidens posses an Essence Pool of 63. 63 divided by 4 equals 15.75, rounded up it comes to 16. So Branch Maidens have to spend 16 motes of Essence to dematerialize.

Alexander Semin and Tomas Vokoun are reportedly following Dale Hunter out the door.
Semin and Vokoun will not return to the Washington Capitals next season, according to separate reports, which means more changes for the team that saw its head coach step down on Monday.
Semin's agent told ESPN.com that his client has no intentions of signing a contract extension with the Caps, and that he will therefore become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
"It was good while it lasted. With the lack of playoff success, with the direction they are going. They decided to change directions. That's within their rights. Alex doesn't fit into that system obviously," Semin's agent, Mark Gandler, told ESPN The Magazine. "It just doesn't make any sense to him. He plays, he did the best he could under the circumstances and he earned his right to be a free agent."
Gandler said that the strong priority is for Semin to continue to play in the NHL, rather than to head over to the KHL in Russia.
Semin finished with 21-33-54 totals in 77 games this season. The 28-year-old finished with a career-high 40 goals and 84 points in 2009-10.
Meanwhile, Vokoun's first choice is also to stay in the NHL, according to SportsNet's Nick Kypreos. However, it's unlikely that he'll be staying with the Capitals. CSNWashington's Chuck Gormley reports that Vokoun said Monday he never intended to play more than one season in Washington.
The Capitals netminder took a huge pay cut from his 2010-11 salary to the $1.5 million he made this season in an attempt to chase a Stanley Cup — a move that didn't exactly go as planned.
In other words, expect big changes in the nation's capital this offseason.

ISA At Work In The Healthcare and Public Health Sector
The Department of Health and Human Services is designated as the Sector-Specific Agency for the Healthcare and Public Health Sector. ISA member Centene Corporation represents this sector.
Centene Corporation is a Fortune 500 company and a leading multi-line healthcare enterprise that provides services to government healthcare programs. Centene also contracts with other healthcare and commercial organizations to provide specialty services, including behavioral healthcare services through Cenpatico, care management software, correctional systems healthcare, in-home health services, life and health management, vision, pharmacy benefits management, specialty pharmacy and telehealth services.
Geared toward the healthcare industry, ISA and American National Standards Institute (ANSI) launched their third joint publication in the highly successful and acclaimed Financial Management of Cyber Risk series at a March 5, 2012 National Press Club Event opened by National Cyber Security Coordinator for President Obama, Howard Schmidt. The publication, "The Financial Impact of Breached Protected Health Information: A Business Case for Enhanced PHI Security"is available for download.
Successful in its own right, this publication builds upon the enterprise-wide risk management approach developed and promoted by ISA and included in its prior ISA-ANSI joint publications of Financial Risk Management: "The Financial Impact of Cyber Risk: 50 Questions Every CFO Should Ask" (2008) and "The Financial Management of Cyber Risk: An Implementation Framework for CFOs." In this third publication, we describe the prevalence of protected health information breaches, its higher resale value compared to other stolen information, and provide a five-step formula (known as PHIve) to help estimate the financial impact of such a breach/theft.
In describing this formula, Mr. Schmidt stated that it "would help health care companies move more quickly to protect their patients' electronic records by providing IT professionals a way to estimate the financial impact of a breach and to convince executives to invest in security infrastructure." The press seems to agree, having been featured in over 50 articles (and growing) in such publications as Bloomberg, the American Medical Association's Newsletter, CIO Magazine, Computer World, etc.

One of the great aspects of the upcoming 9th San Francisco Documentary Festival is not only the number of environmental based docu films but the fact that the eclectic selection comes from other regions that might not be on the general green radar. On Coal River would be one of those deeply environmental films that register emotionally strong notes by way of West Virginia.
A few of us viewed On Coal River which that takes place in the bucolic mountain area of Coal River Valley which immediately brings us into a David and Goliath struggle with the town residents confronting the notorious Massey Energy (the same Massey Energy that had the coal mining disaster on April 5, 2010).
Directors Francine Cavanaugh and Adams Wood take a back roads approach for the footage and back-story. The films smartly keys on some of the more active residents and colorful residents who have either been coal miners or know coal miners. The film makers go out of there way to show how coal mining (or rather mountaintop removal) continues to be a vital aspect to the economy (although they point out that the percentage of miners sits significantly lower that in past years) but many people believe that this business has also become a toxic and environmental liability for local residents.
The film focuses on several local community members who like to call themselves hillbillies but also educated hillbillies. In the forefront stands former miner Ed Wiley an activist/environmentalist who fights the good fight to get people to recognize that their local elementary school where their children attend should be recognized as an environmental hazard. The filmmakers capture the passionate and emotional Wiley spearheading protest efforts, leading educational meetings as well as him walking from West Virginia to Washington DC to raise awareness and get his point across.
On Coal River does a great service by not creating an overly polished film, and by sticking to capturing real emotion. The rough footage works well to demonstrate that people will fight for an environmental cause in states other than west coast states. It offers some insight into what the other people who support Massey (mostly people concerned with the local economic concerns if they fight Massey) but the film doesn't get any official response from the energy giant. Did Massey officials decline to be interviewed for this film? Although the focus on the school offers a solid storyline and a hot topic, the film might have added some additional conclusion and information about the polluted water supply and toxic health conditions. What good is it to have a new school when the water supply and air remain poisoned for the whole town?
Despite some loose threads, it is great to see an emotionally charged environmental film where David wears a hillbilly hat.

Etch vs. Epoxy
Can someone give me a heads-up on the differences of the 2 or are they the same just named different by manufacturers ? I know that when you start a project with a bare steel body you are supposed to epoxy it but is etch not the same thing ?
They are not the same. Do a search on the board. This has been covered several times in great detail.
Paint products
I am holding in my hand a can of epoxy base coat which is a self etching primer..contains zinc phosphate for corrosion resistance..And gives an excellent base for the finish coats of paint..
This product is what I am using to protect and base coat all my metal with..Now if one waits a long time to proceed with the finish it will need to be sanded to give it some "tooth to hold the next coats of material..
I got this stuff to stop the rust and protect the metal until I got to the final finish..
I have tried most all of it and now do what is known to work..
From my understanding the etching is for bare metal, you can get
etching in a single stage or an epoxy base. I have found the
epoxy ething primer to work better with the epoxy "2k" primer.
I use both, the etching primer preps the bare steel and the 2k primer
fills and gives you a good surface to sand and level out.
If you're painting over something other than bare steel just skip
the etching primer altogether.
Some will argue that you don't even need the epoy primer over
a properly prepared surface at all but I like to always prime before
painting. My epoxy primer says right on the label to always use
a etching primer over bare steel first, so I prime all the exposed
steel areas with that then spray the entire panel with the
urethane epoxy primer.
Tell me more about your primer, did you say your color can go
right over that? And it etches too?.
Can you wet sand this primer and if so what is it? Thanks.
Etching primers and epoxy primers are two different animals. Etching primers offer a little better adhesion than epoxy. Epoxy works well on surfaces that are sanded or sandblasted, they require a surface texture for good adhesion. Most etching primers cannot be directly topcoated, epoxies can. Body fillers can be applied over epoxies. Body fillers should not be applied over self etch primers. Consult you product tech sheets for detailed info.
What about "wash" etch ?
Preferably no filler over self-etch primer .... ok... now what if one uses the wash etch over the metal.. and then apply filler... and after that... 2K epoxy primer ?
Thing is, I'm personally not too fond of the idea of adding filler over epoxy primer, nor just adding it over bare metal.
I'm still no pro at bodywork, and I would prefer to see the metal somewhat when I sand the filler down.
No mud on self etch or wash primers. Mud over epoxy very good!! Epoxy is more of a glue than an etch in the terms of sticking to bare metal. Must have enough mils of epoxy to acheive the best adhesion. At least one mil(2 good coats). If you use PPGs DPLF, please don't use the 402 catalyst. The 401 catalyst is slower but much more effective, read the P sheet.
I was looking at some transtar paint at a local jobber, and he showed me an all in one metal up primer for this line. Anyone hear of this stuff, is it anythign worth trying out? not trying to hijack, thought it goes with this thread.
i think most of the paint companies have come out with a 2k type primer/surfacer that can be applied direct to metal. i believe most are some kind of mixture of epoxy and urethane but i could be wrong. i have used the turbo primer from southern polyurethanes which is like this and it works great. bonds fine, sands easy and sprays like any other 2k primer. for the other post......while you can put bondo on bare metal, you will get a stronger bond if you put it ontop of the epoxy. epoxy the car or part then bondo then epoxy over it again. DO NOT put bondo over any type of acid etch primers!!!

Have you ever wanted the god-like power to create entire worlds? Wondered what it feels like to destroy a universe with the flick of your hand? Then become an accountant. That's right, you heard me. The Great Creators (and Destroyers) of reality are the people who define what is worthy of measurement.
Consider this:
Current wisdom says that the amount of global economic activity is the total of Gross Domestic Production (GDP) for all countries in the world. This number tells us how much value is created each year through productive activity. And yet none of this activity would be possible if children were not born, raised by devoted parents, and educated by society. The most essential "productive" activity performed by humans is parenting. And what is the net economic value of parenting? Zero. Zilch. Nada. It doesn't exist as far as economists are concerned.
And how do we know this? Because it doesn't appear on the accounting books! Being a mother has no economic value — at least not according to the accounting schemes used by macro economics today. This sweeping power to make massive value-creation disappear is wielded by accountants every single day.
How Measurement Defines Reality
What we take to be real is largely determined by what we are able to perceive. If something doesn't arise in awareness, we behave as though it doesn't exist. This little feature of human experience is what makes measurement so important. Our sensibilities about what is real and knowable are shaped by the existence of interpretive frameworks and the data streams that reinforce their "realness" in our lives.
As an example consider the cost of gasoline. The visible marker we use to assess total cost is the displayed price per gallon (the current price in Seattle is $3.89). This tells us how much we'll have to pay if we want to fill up our tank and take the car for a spin.
What is hidden by this perception is the vast infrastructure that makes gas available to US citizens. Getting that gas to the pump required:
- Massive subsidies to oil companies;
- A global military presence to protect supply lines;
- International agreements with oil producing countries;
- Neglect of environmental impacts;
- Roads and ports funded by taxpayers;
- …and so on.
So what is the true price of gasoline? Whatever it is, it's a LOT more than four bucks! (I've read estimates as high as $24 per gallon.)
We don't directly experience the hidden costs of oil refinement and distribution. From this experiential perspective these costs simply don't exist — a cognitive blindness keeps us from seeing them. So how can the public engage in meaningful discussions about energy policy? Clearly, a different kind of measurement is needed to make the true cost of "business as usual" visible to the public at large.
Half Truths and Political Agendas
Measurements can be used to intentionally conceal information, as part of PR campaigns intent on creating a particular public perception of unfolding events. Numbers can be defined to elevate one class of data while obscuring another. A powerful example of this is the death toll presented to the public throughout a military campaign.
During the invasion and occupation of Iraq, for example, a measure of "US soldier casualties" was used as the proxy for total deaths arising from the conflict. The citizenry was constantly reminded of fallen heroes and the debt we are reminded that we owe to them. This framing of events did much to conceal larger patterns of human suffering and moral culpability by various actors involved in the war effort. Iraqi soldiers were not included, nor were civilian casualties. These numbers were intentionally excluded for several obvious reasons, all contributing to the need for media narratives to promote an appetite for war among the populace.
This ability to use numbers as a political tool is well known. It has been commonplace throughout military and political history. And yet the role of accounting schemes to shape public perception remains unconsidered in standard commentaries about current events.
The power of accountants remains largely hidden from view. Just as the Enron scandal demonstrated how cooking the books could create perceived value among financial investors, so too can accounting metrics shape the perception of value for politically motivated agendas. We saw this with the occupation of Iraq (using measures like the death toll I just described). And we saw it with the puffing up of "junk bonds" in the build-up to the financial meltdown of 2008 (where metrics were used to imply that derivative stocks were more secure, and thus more valuable, than they actually were). The ability to establish the perception of value is fundamental to maintaining power and control over society.
Measurement tools can be misleading by design. And so special care must be taken to deconstruct and analyze the semantics of societal metrics to ensure that they are worthy of the legitimacy granted to them. Just as frames and metaphors need to be considered for their strategic import in communications and engagement, so too must they be dealt with in the use of metrics that shape public policy and social behavior.
Real-World Complexity and the Wall of Ignorance
Even when there is no overt agenda to obfuscate and confuse, the cognitive blindness to hidden realities inherent in social measures can have a devastating effect. The Japanese tsunami of March 2011 made visible — in a catastrophic way — the hidden linkages between tensions built up in the ocean floor across centuries and the thermal core of a nuclear power plant standing in a valley that would become a flood zone when disaster struck. The inability to measure real-world risk and adequately prepare for it caused the deaths of more than 20,000 people and released radioactive debris into the world's atmosphere and oceans.
A Horizon of Ignorance stood between the stewards of public safety and the complexities of the real world. This absence of knowledge about systemic risk plagues the world today. Our evolutionary make-up as humans, which gave us the cognitive machinery that blinds us to our own meaning-making process, places a perceptual layer of semantics between our understanding of the world and its actual make-up.
This problem is pervasive in attempts to characterize the harms associated with climate change. Perceived threats are filtered through the multiple lenses of belief systems, familiarity (or lack thereof) about climate science, and emotional capacity to ponder its implications. The true scope of harm is very difficult to assess. Even the experts struggle to understand the full complexity of planetary climate. And the public remains incapable of cultivating system-level responses to the broad risks that climate disruption brings to the table.
The absence of measurement tools for societal resilience only serve to exacerbate this situation. We cannot depend on GDP and gas prices at the pump to tell us how we should collectively respond to global change. Nor can we merely let status quo actors dictate the terms of public debate about what is worthy of being measured in the first place.
How shall we leverage the power of accounting to make visible those risks that are well known? And how can we construct appropriate measures for the unknowns that lurk beyond our awareness? Will cognitive blindness keep us from mounting an effective response? The jury is still out on this one. Much remains to be done if we are to both understand the semantic processes that keep us from grappling with real-world complexity and also continue to advance our knowledge of what are truly enormous technical challenges for humanity on the global stage.
I just hope that more people will familiarize themselves with the power of measurement as a key feedback of public perception. We can't address problems we are unable to see. And we can't see through the political agendas of existing measurement systems until we take seriously the implications of cognitive science for shaping what we take to be reality.
So there you have it. Accountants hold the power to create and destroy worlds. As more of us step into the role of measuring social value, we must wield this power with great care.
The future of our species may well depend on how skillfully we employ it.

We offer observations on the human condition from a 21 year old mind trapped in an 81 year old body.
There is a moment when eyes of a stranger catch yours and you don't know whether to nod or speak.
Americans are trapped in a world that no longer exists.
To seek, "what I want," rather than accept "what is" creates anger and frustration.
To know thyself is the most important goal in life.
In life, taking a stand for principles is more important than money.
If three children enter a store, the youngest leads.
A singer or actor knows the importance of leaving the stage when ahead, I regret to say, that no Republican presidential candidates know this principle.
In most cases when encountering two adolescent girls one is thinner than the other.
To lack trust in being able to solve economic problems in life is to doom oneself to economic problems in life.
Modern marvel: a person eating not talking on phone or playing with machine!
There are those who eat with abandon, and those who abandon common sense when eating.

328 Interior Light Problem
In 40 years of driving, I have never run into this one! I recently purchased a 1997 328ic, with the manual transmission. I have my overhead light set to Position 1, (illuminates when the door is opened), it does this. So far,so good. When accelerating from a full stop and shifting into 2nd gear, between 1000-2000 RPM,the light illuminates, stays on until 2000RPM and shifting into 3rd gear, when it goes out. It will not come on in 1st or 3rd gear. It doesn't matter whether the road is rough or smooth as silk, the light goes on. Any ideas, is my car possessed?, what's the deal here! Thanks, maybe I should call in an exorcist.

It was about this time that Giorgione's ladylove won fame by discarding him in that foolish, fishwife fashion.
As he had told his ladylove, he was neither a child nor a fool.
Just then ladylove—my grandmother—came out of the side door.
We called my grandmother "ladylove," because I guess that is what my grandfather called her.
That was the way my grandmother ladylove was, as old as old, and nobody ever loved trees the way she did.
Nobody ever called her anything else but ladylove, not "Gran'ma" or anything like that.
At these young Sybaris smiles faintly, for his thoughts are away with his ladylove, the too fascinating Lydia.
He's gone off hours ago to escort his ladylove from Hanbridge to Hillport.
It had needed but this, the sight of helpless distress in his ladylove, to finish his subjugation.
"They is," replied Mr. Toner, humbly and laconically; and his ladylove proceeded thitherward.

Sugarland Duet With 11-Year-Old Aspiring Singer in Virginia
Alana Springsteen is a singer, a songwriter and a powerful performer … at the ripe old age of 11 years old. The Virginia native recently caught the attention of Sugarland's Kristian Bush, who has been meeting with the precocious young girl and her family in Nashville, in hopes of helping her get a record deal. But it was in Alana's hometown of Virginia Beach last week, during an April 26 Sugarland concert, where the young girl proved she is ready to be a star.
"[Kristian] said you have the opportunity to sing 'Baby Girl' with us, are you ready?" Alana recalls (quote via 13 News/WVEC). "And I said yes! I'm totally ready."
Alana's parents, David and Shannon Springsteen, proudly watched from the audience as their talented daughter sang her heart out. (Watch a fan's footage of the performance below.) "As soon as the first verse got done it was like, 'I got this stage!'" David says. "She was walking around, flipping her hair, and I was like, 'What is going on?'"
Alana has even written a song with Kristian and his brother Brandon … perhaps to be featured on her debut album? The young musician has also performed the national anthem at Chicago's Wrigley Field and continues to balance school with career planning. Luckily, her lofty dreams are balanced by a family that keeps her grounded.
"We tell Alana, God opens doors and whenever He opens them, you go," David continues. "As long as she remembers that this is a gift that's been given to her to bring happiness and steer people in the right direction, it will always be there."
Kristian isn't the only band member who is spending time mentoring new artists. His partner, Jennifer Nettles, will appear on the ABC show, "Duets," this summer, along with Kelly Clarkson, Robin Thicke and Lionel Richie. The new show allows each celebrity coach to find and mentor new and undiscovered talent, with the ultimate winner securing a deal with Hollywood Records.
