Candy Hearts for Our Celebrity Valentines
I mean, should we count the ways on this one? Oh wait, we already gave them their own retrospective. They are the very essence of the '90s: ridiculously cool and perfect, and we didn't realize how obsessed we were until they were over.
From the time they met at Cafe Tabac in NYC in 1994, to their ultimate, permanent split in 1998, they walked red carpets together, wore coordinated outfits, smoked in tandem, broke up, made up, and even got engaged. Depp is now betrothed to Amber Heard (and has two children with Vanessa Paradis), and Moss has (finally) settled down with a family of her own, so I'm not rooting for them to get back together. Their memory can live on with the rest of our wonderful nostalgia for that amazing decade. Sigh.
As Cobain rose to fame with Nirvana and Love with Hole, this duo took the title of the royal couple of grunge after meeting in 1989. Each struggled with drug abuse, issues that became further complicated when daughter Frances Bean was born in 1992. They married in Hawaii shortly after Frances' birth, but the end of their union was swift and tragic: Cobain committed suicide on April 5, 1994.

Best Of :: People & Places
It's not so close to Roosevelt Row, but if you plan on hitting Grand Avenue galleries on a First Friday artwalk, there's no better place to park than in the lot of The Paper Heart. In addition to being the only gallery on the strip with a parking lot that includes more than five spaces (there are at least 25 spaces here), The Paper Heart sits on the corner of Grand Avenue and Van Buren Street, more or less at the beginning of the strip and the avenue walk. So once you've parked your ride in The Paper Heart's well-lit lot, you can start your cultural journey with the offbeat exhibits at the gallery, and then walk to any number of other galleries on Grand (Tilt Gallery, Red Door, PHiX, The Lodge, Chocolate Factory, Cone, and several other art houses are literally right across and down the street). The only catch is, if you're going to park at The Paper Heart, you should get downtown early (no later than 7 p.m.), as parking's at a premium downtown and the lot fills quickly.
With its lavishly tony décor soaked in red and black, talented DJs spinning Top 40 and rock mash-ups, top-shelf food and drinkage, performances by musical and burlesque acts, and plenty of chi-chi clientele, the Jackrabbit Supper Club is definitely the kinda E-Ticket club that exudes big-city splash. Since debuting last fall, it's not strange to see the place filled to its rafters with the beautiful people (including such celebs as Matt Leinart and Jamie Foxx) from Thursday to Saturday every week. Oh, and by the way, good luck trying to get inside. We've seen limos full of ladies and gents getting turned away by the iron-jawed security types after the club hits its capacity during the prime time of 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. And even when these gatekeepers grant admission, usually they're picking the hottest hotties that are standing in line outside the unmarked building. So unless you can somehow transform into Nick Lachey or Jessica Simpson, chances are you're gonna be partying down the street at Mickey's with all the other mooks.
Something's going up on the northeast corner of Scottsdale and Camelback roads, and no, it's not another gas station. It's a cupcake shop! Well, you say, cupcake shops are as common as gas stations these days and, hey, both are outrageously priced. You're right. We won't argue (in fact, a Sprinkles cupcake costs $3.25 even more than a gallon of gas). We'll just tell you that if the hype on these precious Beverly Hills-based sweet cakes is anywhere near right, you'll be lined up out the door like an imitation of the '70s gas crisis when the Scottsdale Sprinkles finally opens. We'd hoped it would be in time for our Sweet Life issue, but alas, some good things must wait.
Just listen to the lineup of flavors: ginger lemon, dark chocolate, cinnamon sugar, chai latte, peanut butter chip. Drooling? Try scrolling over the full descriptions at www.sprinklescupcakes.com. Lemon isn't just lemon, it's "fragrant lemon cake with lemon-vanilla frosting flecked with zest." These people mean business, and we expect their business to boom when they open allegedly sometime this fall.
If it weren't for sheer willpower, we'd all be sitting around on asses the size of Texas, eating bonbons, and frothing at the mouth like Homer Simpson. Mmm... chocolate. So you can imagine we were floored to discover a cocoa treat that has zero calories and zero fat at the Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak. Offered as part of the Tocasierra Spa's "My Tempest Truffle" Valentine's Day package, the Chocolate Scrub immerses your whole body in guilt-free chocolaty goodness. The included Chocolate Decadence Pedicure turns tired tootsies into plump, juicy Tootsie Rolls. Can't wait to check out next year's cocoa-infused V-Day specials at Tocasierra? Don't fret the spa plans to offer the chocolate body scrub year-round for an anytime indulgence. They say that because of similar endorphins, chocolate is just as good as sex. Considering that the spa does the messy cleanup for you, we say this sinful scrub is even better.
Thanks to one of Old Town Scottsdale's newest boutiques, we'll gladly add some extra penance so we can atone for the lust we feel for Covet's Tretorn shoes, limited-edition Andy Warhol Factory Foundation Levi's, and one-of-a-kind Liz Saintsing painted bags. We're envious of owners Randy and Adrienne Kreb's excellent taste, and have been known to stare longingly at the Yoko Deveraux shirts and the Alexander McQueen Puma trainers. We're just angry that we didn't spend more time at the gym, so our slothful selves have to be squeezed into our April 77 skinny rock-star jeans.
We love looking like a million bucks, especially if our champagne tastes can be sated on our beer budgets. That's why we've been braving traffic on the I-10 for ages so we can scour the racks at Neiman Marcus Last Call at Arizona Mills. Where else will you find purple Miu Miu pumps for $19.95? Or John Galliano for Dior camis for $50? Or a men's Prada blazer for less than $150? Stock up on Radko Christmas ornaments for $9, and score a suede couch for under $1500. When you pay for your purchases and the kind clerk asks if you'd like to be added to the mailing list, say, "Yes." You'll get invitations to preview sales and you'll have first crack at some choice Chanel ballet flats. Now you'll be able to afford a matching bag. Who says you can't buy happiness? And at a bargain!

Hi all!
I'm happy to announce that m0n0wall is on the front page of the November
issue of French computer magazine "Login:" (released today). It contains
a beginners-oriented article and comes with a monthly CD-Rom
(with the current 1.1 images for all platforms)
When I started to write this article, my goal was to make the French
Linux and BSD communities aware of the great project that m0n0wall has
become. (I must admit I was even not sure it would ever be published...)
Now it's there, so I hope the French community of users will
grow and give us lots of useful feedback!
For those who are interested, the editor web site's forum is at:
http://www.posse-press.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=26375 (sorry,
in French only).
Many thanks to:
(it's now or never)
- Manuel Kasper (the boss) who made me learn a lot on m0n0wall in
general, on its original design in particular (and for his great
patience with me of course ;-)
- Michael Alderete for his famous "Getting started with m0n0wall"
on-line article [1] and for letting me re-use some of his network figures.
- Chris Buechler and Jim McBeath for their accurate work on m0n0wall's
And all the very nice people on the mailing lists (I can't write
everyone's name here...) for their "savoir-faire" (know-how) and their
unfailing motivation.
Let's have a drink!

PS : I hope the magazine can be found in Belgium + Luxembourg +
Switzerland, too.

'"The last two games on that trip weren't what we want to play like," Lydman said of his effort with Montador in losses at San Jose and Vancouver. "But I think it's not just the last two games of that trip. Our game has been very sub-par for a while, and we can only try to get better. I'll just try to prepare as any other game. I don't think I should change anything and I don't think I could change anything. Having said that, I need to focus on keeping it simple."'
Lydman hopes to get back into lineup

Everyone encounters grief and loss in their lives. Having someone to talk to who understands your pain and can give you resources can be helpful. There is a difference between healthy grief and unhealthy grief. If you are experiencing grief for more than 6 months which is causing you impairment in your eating, sleeping, concentration, your work, etc. you may need some professional help, like talk therapy and medication temporarily. I use an empathetic and understanding approach through person centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution focused therapy.

Loss occurs in everyone, sometimes it is expected, sometimes not. It can be helpful to have someone to help put things in perspective and to find a "New" normal functioning. Grief and Cognitive -Behavioral therapies, with the guidance of a therapist, can help individuals make adjustments in living and thinking about the loss, and move on with life using healthy coping skills.
John Neyman, MA., BCPC

John Neyman has been experienced with helping overs work through their grief for over 30 years. As a therapist and Pastor he has been involved with those who were grieving from the loss of a child, parent, grandparent, and spouse. He has helped others work through the grieving process of divorce and separation. You do not need to go through this alone. Call now to get the help you need.
William Kelly, Ph.D., NCP, LPC
Psychotherapist/Professional Counselor
5725 Forward Ave, Suite 300, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15217
Grieving is a normal process filled with pain. Sometimes the process can be made easier by talking to a someone. People who are grieving the loss of a loved one or the loss of a relationship are often confused about the meaning of the loss and have raw emotions just below (or sometimes directly on) the surface. I provide three things: 1) a compassionate place to talk about the loss, 2) ways to figure out what the loss means to you, and 3) ways to take the loving memories of the person in your heart while you manage to move on with life with a healthy sadness rather than intense despair.

2003 Pascal Berthier "Saint-Amour" Vielles Vignes
Creches Sur Saone, France
So last weekend we were in need of a lighter style red wine and I knew the topic gamay was coming so I decided to open this orphan Bojo I had in the cellar from a pair I purchased last summer.
Woo! Too tart. Not ready, and a little sour smelling. So I opened something else and left this on the counter. The next day I sniffed it--uh oh, there's VA. So I left it yet another day and when I pulled the cork--vinegar! Full speed ahead, no U-turns, it was turning into vinegar!
So I went to the pantry to get my current house red wine vinegar, which I made myself from a bottle of red wine that went total-VA on me about a year ago, thinking I'd start feeding this one to that. The vinegar is in the original wine bottle it came in, I just put a better stopper in it. And guess what I found last year's red wine vinegar was made out of? The first bottle of 03 Pascal Berthier "Saint-Amour" Vielles Vignes!
So all's well that ends well: I am glad this happened because I really love the wine-y vinegar this turned into and I was going to be running out soon, and frankly good red wine vinegar is harder to find than good wine, and $16 isn't too much to pay for good red wine vinegar.

A man was stabbed in a brawl at Lorne and two people suffered burns during New Year's Eve celebrations in Melbourne.
Police administered first aid and drove a man to hospital after breaking up a fight on the Lorne foreshore, Victoria Police spokeswoman Belle Nolan said.
"Police were patrolling near the intersection of Mountjoy Parade and Grove Road and they witnessed an altercation between a group of people at 11.45pm," she said.
"They've gone over, and broke up what was going on and they've spoken to an 18-year-old man who told them he'd been stabbed in the chest.
"Police actually administered first aid themselves at the scene and they also took the victim themselves to the Lorne Hospital and from there he was airlifted to The Alfred [hospital] in a stable condition."
Metropolitan Fire Brigade spokesman Trevor Woodward said a 22-year-old man suffered burns to his left arm after a firework exploded in his hand at Mount Waverley, while an 18-year-old woman burned both hands and one leg after falling into a fire at Mentone.
Police are investigating the fireworks incident, which happened about midnight at a Pamela Street home.
Investigators believe the Chadstone man was holding fireworks in his left hand when the device exploded, causing burns to his forearm and hand.
He was taken to The Alfred with medium-level burns.
Mr Woodward said firefighters rescued three dogs spooked by fireworks.
"One of note was in Sunshine West where a dog got well and truly wedged in a fence," he said.
"It was bleeding, it was in quite a deal of pain.
"The crews managed to release the dog – it took about 15 minutes to get the dog released from the fence – but it was a stray and no one around wanted to take responsibility for the dog, so the crews actually took it back to the fire station so they could look after it and get the council ranger to come and pick it up from the fire station.
"At least they gave it some TLC because the poor thing had been in a lot of pain and had been scared totally out of its wits."
Nearby in Albion, several homes were evacuated after a single-storey weatherboard house was destroyed in a suspicious fire.
Mr Woodward said the blaze at the Ridley Street home was reported about 5.30am.
"They had to evacuate a two-storey block of units on one side and a double-storey house on the other – it was burning that fiercely."
Ambulance Victoria spokesman John Mullen said paramedics treated more than 30 people drug overdoses across regional Victoria, including a number on the Lorne foreshore.
"The youngest was a 15 year-old boy," he said.
"It's a combination of drugs and alcohol."
Victoria recorded its lowest road toll since records began in 1952. There were 279 deaths for 2012, compared with 286 the previous year.
Anyone with information about the Lorne stabbing is urged to phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Suspicious Items: Police Clear Parts Of Two Senate Office Buildings
(Washington, DC) -- Capitol Police have cleared parts of two Senate office buildings due to a suspicious package and a suspicious envelope. The package is in the Hart office building and the envelope is in the Russell building. Both Senate office buildings are located across the street from the Capitol. Police are on heightened alert status after this week's deadly bombings in Boston.

To introduce riders to the new $850 million extension of the FrontRunner commuter rail between Salt Lake City and Provo, the Utah Transit Authority will offer free rides on that stretch on Saturday, Dec. 8.
"There will be trains every 30 minutes between about 10 a.m. and 10 p.m.," said UTA spokesman Gerry Carpenter. The free rides will only be between Provo and Salt Lake City not on the existing FrontRunner section between Salt Lake City and Ogden.
The new extension officially opens to passengers Dec. 10.
Carpenter said that grand-opening ceremonies to celebrate the new line have been scheduled for the morning of Dec. 6 but the exact time, place and speakers are still being determined. The new 45-mile extension will initially include stations in Murray, South Jordan, Draper, Lehi, American Fork, Orem and Provo. A future station also is planned in Vineyard.

Not only has Rob reportedly moved out of the home he shared with Kristen in Los Angeles, but a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that Rob won't even speak to Kristen!
Read on for all the details!
A source close to the situation tells that "Rob is not taking Kristen's calls and he isn't much of a texter as they don't text each other. Not only has he left the house they share but he is leaving the situation all together cold turkey to have time to himself and deal with it on his own terms. He currently wants to be as far from Kristen symbolically and physically right now while he deals with what has happened."
Rob and Kristen may have had an "awkward," tearful meeting after the news broke, but apparently Rob has had enough. He's taken control of the relationship — or what's left of it — and moved out!
Our source believes he "will stay in the states," but that is not confirmed yet. What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Is Rob making the right decision?

Plenty, if you happen to be a StFX University student. Even more if you are one of the senior students alive with anticipation, counting the hours until StFX Day, December 3, the day you receive your much-coveted X-Ring.
Alumni will gather at homes, hotels and church halls in locations across the country and beyond to mark this day, the feast of the university's patron saint, St. Francis Xavier, the famous Jesuit missionary to the Far East.
On campus, black-robed seniors will take part in what many StFX students regard as one of the most memorable events of their university careers, the X-Ring ceremony.
StFX Day is the day the graduating class earns the right to wear the X-Ring, the distinctive university symbol that stands out in Canadian government, business, education and entertainment circles. Students hold a countdown starting at least a year in advance. According to myth - supposedly confirmed by a question on Jeopardy, although no one can say when - the X-Ring is the most recognized ring in the world after the papal ring and Super Bowl ring.

CRM1614T: M16-14T Big Dog
Columbia River
Kit Carson, designer of the M16® Series, became famous for his titanium frame M16 customs. True to Kit's custom design in all details, the production M16T models have been taken a step further with the addition of our exclusive patented* AutoLAWKS™ safety, which automatically turns the folders into virtual fixed blades when the blade is opened and locked.
The handles, which form the open-build frame, are CNC machined from 6AL4V titanium. The result is a better strength-to-weight ratio than steel or aluminum, and an almost indestructible frame. The titanium frame is minimally ceramic bead-blast finished to enhance grip. The single 420J2 stainless steel locking liner with friction grooves provides positive locking.
The blade is AUS 8 stainless steel, chosen for edge retention and durability, in non-reflective fine bead blast finish, with a Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edge. This steel can handle the most rugged cutting tasks and still be field sharpened.
Of course, it also features the signature "Carson Flipper" extension to the blade, which aids opening and acts as an additional blade guard.
The "Big Dog" M16®-14T is a hefty, full-size working knife with a dual grind modified Tanto-style blade.
One-hand opening and closing is quick and smooth, the result of lubrous washers at the blade pivot. The ambidextrous thumb stud with checkered surface provides instant access in any circumstance. It features a removable stainless steel clothing/gear clip.
Faithful replicas. Premium quality. Precise. Smooth. Amazing value for those who want the ultimate M16. Kit Carson still marvels at how well our production titaniums compare to his customs.
*U.S. Patent Nos. 5,596,808 and 7,437,822
About the Knife Designer
Kit Carson of Vine Grove, Kentucky, is a retired professional soldier, rising to the level of Sergeant Major. He has made knives for 30 years and has been a full-time knifemaker since 1993. He is a voting member of the Knifemakers' Guild. Kit has been an avid hunter and fisherman for over 40 years, growing up enjoying the woods and trout streams in the mountains of north Georgia. About his philosophy of knife design, he says: "I strive to follow form and function in the knives I design and build. My reputation has been built around solid working knives, both fixed blade and folders. All the time spent outdoors as a young man and the time spent around the world with the Army has strongly influenced the knives I create." Nothing reflects this approach more than the Carson Design of our M16 series, which is built for function, not to follow fads. This highly successful knife series was named one of the Top 10 Factory Tactical Folders of the Decade by Blade magazine. The M16-14M recently won a comparison test conducted by Germany's Messer magazine.

toy panel thread.
i posted a thread for like brand new people to graffiti and these forums in general. lotta people been cloggin up the toy BB lately with useless junk, i think it would be good to have not only for people brand new to graffiti, but it would also allow better people to figure out where they belong on the site cuz i noticed a bunch of new kids postin in intermediate as well. would appreciate it if that got approved i think it would help to filter a lot of the junky stuff out of the toy bb and intermediate threads
empty your pockets thread, (flicks of whats in your pockets)?

It's 9 a.m. Thursday morning, and Marie Kettle is on the move.
She emerges swiftly from a pair of double doors, then quickly disappears behind them again, pausing briefly to explain that it will be just another minute before she's able to sit down and talk about the next stage of her career.
Kettle didn't expect to be busy Thursday morning, but this is the emergency room at The Memorial Hospital in Craig, where the unexpected and the urgent take precedence.
She's used to that.
Kettle, a full-time ER nurse who her coworkers call "Momma Marie," has worked in the ER for the majority of her 35-and-a-half-year career at TMH.
But, come Oct. 17, the frenzied pace will change.
On that day, she'll start as a full-time nurse in the hospital's new infusion clinic, where she'll be able to administer a variety of medications, including those for chemotherapy and rheumatoid arthritis.
The position is a natural fit for Kettle, who has her oncology nursing certificate and has done infusions since the 1990s.
"I have totally enjoyed the emergency room," Kettle says when she's able to step away for a few minutes. But, she adds, she's ready for something different.
A slower pace.
A more relaxed environment.
When caring for patients in the infusion clinic, "You're concentrating on just them," she said. "You don't have to jump and run to go do something. You're concentrating on that person, and it's a more relaxed atmosphere all the way around."
Perhaps most importantly, her change in position will allow her to spend more time caring for patients one-on-one.
After all, caring for people is the reason she's been in health care for more than three decades.
Her job allows her to care for people who are injured or ill, see them improve and help them feel better, Kettle said.
In short, it's "just being there to help people through their rough times," she added.
Dora "Corky" Coverston, of Craig, was one such person.
Coverston comes from a family of survivors. Her daughter, Ronda, has had breast cancer for two years and her husband, Edward, had battled prostate cancer.
Thirteen years ago, Coverston discovered she had colon cancer.
She underwent chemotherapy at TMH under Kettle's care.
And, although the worst may be over — Coverston's cancer has since gone into remission — remembering Kettle's care still brings tears to her eyes.
"You could not have asked for anybody more gentle and caring than she was," she said. "It was almost like your best friend was standing beside you, holding your hand and going through this with you."
Kettle said she tries to help patients continue to lead normal lives, which is important, she added, because patients who can preserve their routines and activities generally do better.
She knows this because she's seen it in her patients with diseases like cancer.
"People will look at it as, 'This is another chapter in my life, and I need to work around it and continue on,'" she said.
"You learn so much from these people with cancer," she added, "because they're dealing with the real world."
After about 20 minutes, Kettle is on the go again.
Work in the ER is a "high adrenaline rush," she said, and she's ready to step into a slower pace of life.
But, even though retirement may be just a few years down the road, she's not ready to stop nursing yet.
This line of work "gives me great joy," she said.

Stop the presses
It consistently awes me, sometimes to tears, to see how consistently wrong some Free/Open Source Software commentators are about things like the current state of the desktop. To hear some of them tell it, it's a hand-wringing, brow-furrowing situation in which the fate of the entire paradigm rests in the delicate balance.
Let me explain this in simple terms: It's not. If anything, it's an invitation to a front-row seat to witness digital Darwinism at its finest.
So stop acting like this is a crisis. It's not.
Unity is a dog — it's a textbook case of incredibly bad judgment by The Mark to make a cookie-cutter, all-in-one user interface across a wide range of different hardware. But that's all it is. Is it the death knell of the desktop? Hardly. It's not even the death knell of Ubuntu.
The same with GNOME 3: Arguably a bad move, but not one that is forcing GNOME to fold up the tents and go the way of the Studebaker or the hula hoop.
KDE thriving? In my opinion, it is. That's a good thing, and they have weathered some bad times recently to come out stronger and with a good product for those so inclined to use it.
Xfce making progress at GNOME's expense? Tough if you're a GNOME guy or gal, but not bad in the grand scheme of things. Xfce has always been a good desktop environment which is finally getting the recognition it deserves — it will be interesting to see how they take advantage of this (and good luck, guys and gals).
There is even more attention now toward window managers like Openbox and Fluxbox, as the current desktop environment "crisis" ushers in a sort of renaissance for window managers that gives users a new look at a facet of Linux that is not often discussed.
The bottom line is that's what it's all about: choice. Choice is good. Having choices is a virtue, not a vice. It's simple: Get that and you get FOSS.
[Note to the Linux Foundation: You may think that firstname.lastname@example.com works, but I'm still getting bouncing e-mails across a wide variety of machines using various e-mail programs on FOSS and non-FOSS platforms. Tell you what: I'll just print out my blog from yesterday and mail it to you. Watch your mailbox.]
(Larry Cafiero is one of the founders of the Lindependence Project and develops business software at Redwood Digital Research, a consultancy that provides FOSS solutions in the small business and home office environment.)
February 25, 2012 at 5:56 am
I think having Ubuntu give up on GNOME, then see GNOME give up on GNOME 2 was too much for much of the community to take.
I'm not sure the "works like Windows" desktop metaphor is still as compelling in terms of really bringing new users to free OSes as it used to be.
The teams behind these new UI paradigms need to do a lot of marketing to let users know what the advantages are.
GNOME 3 is something I can live with. I'm hoping for great things by the time we get to 3.4.
And there are always a dozen other UIs to choose from.
February 25, 2012 at 8:56 am
It's not a crisis — just fascinating in its unpredictability.
However, I have to disagree that it's an opportunity for other alternatives to come to the fore.
Instead, a vacuum seems to have been created with the disappearance of GNOME 2. Those alternatives that come closest to delivering a GNOME 2-like experience — Xfce, MATE, Cinnamon — are exactly the ones that people are flocking towards.
February 28, 2012 at 1:19 pm
Where's the Ubuntu spin that ships with GNOME 3? If Canonical had any stones, they'd make it an official project and let GNOME and Unity fight to the death.
February 29, 2012 at 7:43 am
This conversation should never have taken place. It is a case of over thinking
on the part of several groups. Remember when we first had computers and
were able to choose between a bezillion different fonts? And we used them all?
The people who make this magic can do a bezillion new and different things and
they do. Hope it calms down someday.
Everybody should be working on the replacement for flash damnit!

HealthSmart: Three methods to curb headaches
February 24, 2013
All headaches share these unpleasant qualities: They're common and sufferers are eager to find relief. Scientists also continue to search for new solutions — one treatment technology under development is a nerve-stimulating device implanted in the mouth to help relieve cluster and migraine headaches.
Here are a few more research-backed strategies to soothe your aching head:
Get acupuncture
A review of studies reports this practice, which involves inserting and stimulating needles at specific points in the body, is effective at reducing chronic pain, including migraines. Previous research suggested true acupuncture worked no better than a "sham" version (which pricks random spots). But researchers recently analyzed data from 29 studies involving nearly 18,000 participants and found acupuncture eased pain more than standard headache treatment and was slightly more effective than using the sham version.
Ask about supplements
Put a preparation of the herb butterbur (also known as petasites) at the top of your list. According to guidelines developed by the American Academy of Neurology and American Headache Society, it's effective at preventing migraines, as well as reducing the severity of attacks. Other research suggests riboflavin and co-enzyme Q10 may help headaches, too.
Speak the truth
Limiting the number of lies you tell may make you healthier, suggests preliminary research presented at the American Psychological Association convention. Americans average about 11 lies per week, say scientists. Study participants who told three fewer fibs than in other weeks complained less of headaches.

Hotel Forte - Official Site
In the splendid and picturesque setting of Via Margutta, a short distance from Piazza del Popolo, Villa Borghese and the boutiques of Via del Corso and Via dei Condotti, in the heart of the Campo Marzio District, at Hotel Forte you will experience Rome in complete relaxation, surrounded by beauty.
Via Margutta, a colourful street of artists who reside there for hundreds of years, of Galleries and of the capital's most beautiful Art Exhibitions, remains peaceful and quiet, immersed in a seductive romantic atmosphere. At the same time, it is located right in the centre of Rome, next to the city's most famous high-end shopping streets, in a neighbourhood that is exceptionally rich in monuments, basilicas and tourist attractions, including Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon and the Imperial Fori, which can be reached with a pleasant walk through Rome's alleyways.
Hotel Forte is an homage to elegance and hospitality. With its magnificent frescoed lobby, the work of local artists, it is the perfect union between the historic characters of Via Margutta and Palazzo Alibert, in which it is located, and a modern Hotel. A perfect equilibrium between functionality and tradition run through by a single thread, which can be seen in the recurrence of Pompeian red and gold in the decor and the furniture (the traditional hues of Imperial Rome); of paintings and frescoes representing the great works of art by renowned artists; and of typically Roman late-baroque accents, recognizable in the use of exotic motifs.
The 18th century heritage of Palazzo Alibert tastefully meets luxurious interior design producing a perfect harmony between the classical and the modern, which will accompany you through refined spaces where tradition is respected and reinterpreted in an original and personal way.
Traditional Roman hospitality and authentically friendly atmosphere blend with the amenities and services of a modern three-star hotel.
Smooth, family-run management ensures the hotel's guests truly exceptional and personalized treatment: every member of our staff was selected not only for his/her professionalism and competence but also for his/her natural ability to relate to people and build friendly relations with the guests. From our breakfast serving girls, to our housekeeper and front desk staff, you will always meet people chosen with care, who add personality and likability to a unique services offering designed around the desires of our guests. This will transform a pleasant stay in the "Eternal City" into an experience rich in unforgettable emotions and sensations topped by spontaneity, warmth and an authentic sense of family, since often between us and our guests develop true, sincere and long-lasting friendships.
Hotel Forte is part of the Historical Hotel Circuit, in the framework of the "Roma Trasparente" Project of the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities. The Circuit is outlined in information boards listing the 64 Historical Buildings of the Capital that currently house hotels.

Rick RobeyBasketball Player
Inducted: 1995
This story originally appeared on SportsNola.com on May 25, 2009. Reprinted by permission.
While Robey played at Brother Martin, their nemesis was Holy Cross featuring 6-11 center Felton Young (father of current NBA player Thaddeus Young), Haywood Hewitt, Carlos Zuniga and Nat Kiefer. The competition was fierce, and you had to be at your best every game.
The Crusaders were a local prep power. "We had Donald Newman, Jimmy McCulla and Tommy Cronin at the guards," Robey recalled. "Joel Hron (6' 8") was my backup and LeRoy Oliver, Reggie Hadley and Rodney Montgomery were the forwards."
Andy Russo served as head coach until Robey's senior season when Tom Kolb would take over the reigns. Four members of that team would later play in college.
During Ricks junior season, the Crusaders made it to the state title game, beating a fine Captain Shreve team led by super athlete Carlos Pennywell in the state semifinals. Pennywell would later star in football at Grambling before playing in the NFL.
In the finals that season, Brother Martin lost by one point to an outstanding Bastrop team led by Calvin Natt.
The team built on that experience in 1973 and made the following season something special. "We lost two games that season, losing to De La Salle and Holy Cross my senior year," Rick said.
The Crusaders would advance to the state championship title game once again, led by the 6-11 state MVP Robey. They would split in their meetings with Holy Cross during the '74 campaign, but the 3rd time would be the charm.
"We beat Holy Cross in the state finals (67-56). I had 26 points and 14 rebounds." said Robey. His team also beat Capt Shreve in the semifinals.
Robey ended up as Mr. Basketball in the State of Louisiana for 1974.
Deciding which college to attend was a challenging decision. "I spent a lot of time at Tulane (Charlie Moir was the Green Wave head coach) and LSU recruited me heavily (Dale Brown). But it came down to Notre Dame and Kentucky, said Robey.
"Notre Dame had Adrian Dantley. Kentucky had a great nucleus coming back. I felt like if I went to Kentucky, tradition was great and the fan support was outstanding. They had all of those national title banners."
The Wildcats brought in an outstanding group with Robey including center Mike Phillips, forwards James Lee and Jack Givens. But there was a quartet of seniors already in place - Kevin Grevey, Jimmy Dan Connor, Mike Flynn and Bob Guyette. Robey would become the 5th starter as a true freshman on a team that would make a run during March Madness.
Becoming acclimated to college basketball was made easy for Robey due to his support and preparation. "As a freshman at Kentucky, I was ready. Brother Martin had prepared me.
Once I got into the flow of things, I was fine. (Senior) Bob Guyette did a good job of getting me through. (Head coach) Joe B. Hall didn't put pressure on us. (Fellow freshman) Mike Phillips and I stayed close. We had to go to early morning practice. He and I became like brothers."
Joe B. Hall had taken over for the Baron, Adolph Rupp in 1972. "Coach Hall was a real disciplinarian and a no-nonsense gut. It taught me everyday to go to work and work hard, good things will happen. Joe B. Hall was old school. He had rules and regulations. When you look back, he didn't get the recognition that he deserves. He was a great coach."
Coach Bobby Knight woke up the talented Wildcats. The Indiana Hoosiers featured Kent Benson, Scott May, Quinn Buckner and Bobby Wilkerson. "They beat us by 25 points during the season," Robey said. "We beat them in the Mideast Regional, 92-90. That sent us to the Final Four. We beat Syracuse (95-79) in the semis."
The powerful UCLA Bruins were next up against Kentucky in the National Championship game. Played on March 3, 1975 was in San Diego, California, it would be a tough battle for the Wildcats.
The Bruins led 43-40 at halftime. "It was Coach John Wooden's last game that he would coach at UCLA. We felt like everyone was against us, the fans, the referees," Rick chuckled.
UCLA's All American David Meyers had 24 points while Marques Johnson added 6. Andre McCarter and Pete Trgovich were the Bruin guards. Sophomore center Richard Washington did the most damage in the title game with 28 points. Grevey had game honors with 34 points. Bob Guyette chipped in with 16. The Bruins prevailed 92-85, giving Coach Wooden his 10th and final National Championship.
Robey's sophomore season at Kentucky was cut short by injuries. "I got hurt 12 games into the season and didn't play anymore." Kentucky would go on to win the NIT that year.
The next season, the Cats would make it to the Eastern Regional but fall to a talented North Carolina Tar Heel squad . "They had Mitch Kupchak, Phil Ford and Mike O'Koren," Robey recalled. "They hit 35 out of 36 free throws and put it in their 4 corner stall."
The road for the 1977-78 season was made easier for Robey and his teammates for the lessons that they learned as freshmen in 1975. "The experience was easy our senior season," he said. "We were now more focused to work and win."
The Wildcats ranked #1 throughout most of the '77-'78 season, going 32-2. One of those 2 losses stood out in Rick's memory. "We traveled down to Baton Rouge. LSU had Dwayne Scales, Rudy Macklin, Kenny Higgs, Jordy Hultberg, Ethan Martin and Willie Sims. They beat us 95-94 in triple overtime."
The Alabama Crimson Tide represented the other loss that year. "(Alabama) blew us out."
The season finale in Rupp Arena was an emotional game.
"The whole year (National Championship 1978) was just a great experience," Rick said. "The last night in Rupp Arena was really special. All 4 seniors had a great night (Robey had 26 points and 15 rebounds) against UNLV in our final home game. That gave us momentum (Wildcats won 95-65) leading into the NCAA Tournament. Playing in front of the home crowd was emotional for us."
Kentucky had a solid group of starters and strong bench. Robey, Mike Phillips, Jack "Goose" Givens, Kyle Macy and Truman Claytor represented the starting 5. James Lee was the 6th man, and SG Jay Shidler came off the bench.
The path for the Wildcats to the Final Four in 1978 was tough. "We opened up against Florida State with a win. We beat Michigan State, with Greg Kelser and Magic Johnson in the Mideast Regional. (The Spartans would win the National title the following season against Larry Bird and Indiana State in 1979)."
"We went to the Final Four against Arkansas. The Razorbacks were led by the "Triplets" (Sidney Moncrief, Marvin Delph and Ron Brewer). They were the toughest battle in the Final Four because of the quickness of the 3 guards. It caused us problems." But Kentucky would win 64-59.
The final step was the Duke Blue Devils in the 1978 final. Mike Gminski, Jim Spanarkel and Gene Banks were the leaders for Duke. Bill Foster was the head coach.
"The starters came out for a curtain call with 3 minutes left," Rick said. "But we had to go back in. We won by 6 (94-88). There was no 3 point shot." Goose Givens had 41 points and was game MVP. Robey and Givens were selected to the All-Tournament team.
Robey finished his days in Kentucky Blue in style, as a 3-time All-SEC performer. But it was the camaraderie that meant the most to the 6-11-245 pound strongman. "The neatest part was the 4 seniors being so close since we were freshmen. We got what we came for. It was a great group of guys. We're still friends."
The NBA was next up for the two time college All-American. Mychal Thompson (U. of Minnesota) was the 1st pick by the Portland Trailbalzers in the '78 NBA draft. Phil Ford (North Carolina) went next to the Kansas City Kings. The Indiana Pacers took Robey with the 3rd overall pick. The Boston Celtics picked Larry Bird with the 6th selection as a future pick, hoping to sign him prior to the 1979 draft.
Rick's stay in Indiana was short-lived. "I spent 3 months with the Pacers," he said. "We played the Celtics in one game. Player/coach Dave Cowens told me that they were trying to trade for me." Cowens had been Rick's idol growing up. The trade went down, and Robey joined Cowens in Beantown.
He would spend the next 4½ seasons with the Boston Celtics. The first year was not a championship season, but you could see where things were headed. "It was great. We had Bob McAdoo, Curtis Rowe and Jo Jo White. We only won 32 games, but I could see the major changes that they were making."
Rick averaged 12.4 points and 7.2 rebounds a game throughout the 1978-79 campaign, playing in 36 contests for Celtic coaches Tom Sanders and Dave Cowens. Bill Fitch took over the reigns as head coach the following season when Larry Bird was a rookie, and both Kevin McHale and Robert Parish came over from Golden State in trades.
"Larry Bird pushed people," Robey said. "He taught Parish how to run the floor. He figured out that if he (Parish) ran, he'd get the ball from Larry."
Rick contributed 9 points and 4.8 rebounds in all 82 games that season as Parish's backup. He was the first big man off the bench. Bird led the team with 21.2 points per outing.
Boston faced the Houston Rockets for the 1981 title. Calvin Murphy, Rudy Tomjanovich, Mike Dunleavy and Moses Malone were the Rocket stalwarts. The Celtics won the World Championship series in 6 games.
Needless-to-say, Rick felt that he was in a comfortable spot. "Playing in Boston was just like playing for Kentucky, lots of fan support. 1981 was Bird's 1st NBA championship. Larry got the monkey off his back. Magic had already won a title."
Robey was dealt to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for guard Dennis Johnson for the 1982-83 season. Then injuries began to take their toll on Robey. "I spent 3 years with the Suns. It was a great city, but I had major knee surgery, hip surgery and Achilles surgery. Injuries took a lot out of me."
After 8 seasons in the NBA, his body told him that it was time to hang up the sneakers. Robey had the honor of sharing the court with 3 legendary players, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan. "They were the greatest players that I had the pleasure to be around" Rick said.
Rick scored 3,723 points throughout his NBA career and had his jersey retired (#53) by Kentucky.
Robey currently resides in Louisville, Kentucky with his wife of 21 years, Bonnie. They have one son, Sam, a redshirt freshman center at Florida. "He has a great shot at starting," said the proud papa. "He's 6'-4" and 300 pounds and was a 3 time All State tackle in high school. He's real quick and smart."
Rick travels down to the Crescent City every 18 months for a Brother Martin reunion. He runs a Remax real estate business that has attained national goals as a 100% club, platinum club, Hall of Fame and the #1 real estate team in Kentucky and Tennessee, along with the Chairman's Circle.
Robey's work ethic and resulting success in basketball appears to have carried over to his business ventures.

* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
I have had my iPad 2 for nearly 2 years, it was originally a joint anniversary present, but over time it has been mostly me that uses it. We chose this one as we felt we wanted the 3g so that we could use the internet away from the house, and the shop we went to only had available 16gb or the 64gb. We felt that the 16gb probably wasn't enough memory, and knew that you can't upgrade the memory on an iPad so decided to go for the bigger memory.
What it looks like
The iPad 2 is 18.6 cm by 24.1 cm, it is said to be 30% slimmer then the original iPad, but length and width ways it's about the same. I know this is true as when we first got ours we compared it with my mum's original iPad. It is quite light and weighs just 612g. Mine is black with the aluminium silver back, it also comes in white, the colour I'd originally wanted, but I agreed to go with the silver, which was my husband's favourite. On the top is the power button, and a microphone, top of the screen is the front camera, which is 0.3 mb. On the left is the sim card holder. Then on the right side going down is the screen lock button, (which can also be set to do something to the mute, so if you lose sound this is probably what's causing it), then the volume control is under this. At the bottom is the plug to charge the iPad, and above this on the screen is the home button. This is a multifunction button, which switches on the screen, and if the screen is on will take you back to the home screen, or out of a app. On the back is the main camera, but on the ipad 2 this is still only 0.7mb. It takes a decent picture, but is obviously not the best quality.
The battery lasts about 8 to 10 hours with constant use.
What it comes with
In the box this comes with a usb charging cable, a plug which the usb charger attaches to charge this with the mains, a small thing that looks like a safety pin and is needed to open the sim card holder to put the 3g sim in. Mine came unlocked (I think they all do in the UK),and I got the sim free from O2 after deciding they had the tariff and signal I wanted.
Mine came with what I think was ios 4, but has since been updated to ios 6. The software packaged with it originally was Notes (for surprisingly enough writing notes), Music, Video, Facetime (Apple's version of Skype, I've never used it as I have no one to Facetime with :( ), a clock (with alarms and timer), Messages (for instant messaging, again I've never used this), Calendar, Maps (originally was google, but is now Apples' own system), App store, iTunes, Camera, Photo booth, Photos, Mail and settings. Since a software update last year it also now has Reminders (a ticky box reminder list), and Newstand (allows you to download newspapers). It also comes with notifications, a system that links with other Apps to remind you of events, (particularly handy for telling me when something is about to end on eBay.)
Additional purchase
The iPad 2 also has many accessories you can purchase, both made by Apple and made by other companies. Of these I would recommend the protective film, and a case to protect your shiny toy. I also have an iPad bag, and several iPad styluses, and a car charger. For any of them I would shop around as the price varies quite widely.
Using the iPad
The true joy of the iPad for me has to be the App store, you can pretty much find an app for anything. You can create folders to organise your apps, and through a linked computer can move them around the screens. I have 10 pages of apps, some I love, some I barely use, I have to confess to an app addiction, I love finding them and downloading them. In the App store there is a good selection of paid for and free apps, and in my defense many of my apps came free. There are also some apps with free "lite" versions so that you can try before you buy the full app, I have always found this handy. Free Apps I would recommend are iBooks, and the Kindle app, both handy for reading books, manuals etc. Another free one worth a mention is iTunes 12 days of christmas, this gives you a free app, song, book or video each day from boxing day until 12th night.
How I use it
In the house I use it for the internet, as it's quick to pick up and use, I also use the eBay app to list things on eBay. I usually read reviews on Dooyoo through it, although I still prefer to write them on the laptop. I use it to make lists of what I should be doing, and to plan things, I also have several photo apps to alter photos. I also use it to waste too much time playing games :) My husband laughs as I use it to multitask, doing 1 thing on the iPad and another on the laptop :) Sometimes when he is using the laptop I use it to check mail, or to again go on the internet.
Away from the house I have used it as a map whilst traveling, even without the 3g it knows where you are. On holiday I have used it to watch films and tv programs bought from iTunes, and to listen to music. I have also used it to take photos and videos when I haven't got my camera, or can't be bothered to take it out. On holiday last year, with the help of Burger King's wifi I used it to keep up to date with eBay and emails. The volume isn't great but in a quiet room it's loud enough, and the picture for films is good.
So do I like it
Yes as you can probably tell I love it.
It does have some negative points; iPad's don't have flash so some web sites and surveys won't work on it, it doesn't have a usb connection so you can't easily add peripherals like a camera or a flash drive. I believe it is possible to buy an adaptor, but I've never done this. For this reason you really need a computer as well to be able to do most things. The touchscreen keyboard can be faffy, and it likes to think it knows what you are trying to type, and will auto correct, even if thats not what you wanted to say. You can buy an adaptor to use a physical keyboard with it. If you want to print from it you will need a wireless printer.
For me these problems are minor, possibly because I have a laptop as well. I find it does most things I want in the house, and comes into it's own when we go away for the day or on holiday. I can honestly say I'm addicted to it, and there isn't a day I don't use it. In fairness I don't use the 3g a lot, but like to have the option for when I need it (I just cancel it when I'm not using it), and the memory is probably too big hence me filling it with so many apps, as well as loads of music, 3 series of "on the buses" and other tv programs,and films.
For me then I think I will give it 4 stars, as much as I love it I can see that on reflection it can't for me replace a laptop, and so loses a star.
When I bought it this was about £679
It's now between £530 (eBay) to £700 new, and about £320 used.
The new iPad 3 retails for £659 in the Apple store
I've had iPads since August 2010. I work as a musician abroad, and sometimes need to carry a lot of music around with me - so I bought the first iPad wifi only, 64gb. I use it to read pdfs from, as opposed to books. Saves megabucks on excess baggage charges!!
Anyway, the problem with that iPad was that it had no webcam, and the page turns were a little slow. Also,having wifi only meant internet was limited to when I was in range of wifi - plus I couldn't video Skype with home.
Cue the iPad2 64GB wifi+3G. It cost me £659 in Sep 2011. Paying the extra £100 for the 3G was worth every penny, as it has liberated me - I can be in the sticks and watch a film, or call someone visually via skype.
I have to say the webcam on this one is not terribly hi resolution - iPad3 has addressed this I'm told.
Also, the ipad2 is lighter,thinner, and a lot faster on the page turns than the ipad1.
Of particular note is the speaker, which has exceptional clarity. For example, there's the end of a 'Yes Minister' episode where the dialogue is unintelligable - until I watched it on this iPad where I could hear every word.
I recommend getting one of the cases that fold into a stand. I chose the invision one on amazon because it covers the back as well and is a quarter of the price of apple's own magnetic cover.
If you want the basic benefits of a computer and books, without the bulk, the iPad2 is an excellent solution.
After having an iphone4 for around a year, I didn't think there was any need for me to have an iPad. However my boyfriend recently went to America and bought me one back as a present and now I can't live without it! The first thing I noticed about it was the speed of everything. I have a laptop and used to do things like online shopping on that but the iPad beats it hands down, it also is much faster than my desktop computer at work which is really high quality! It is basically just a larger version of an iPhone but this means that you use it as a computer and it works the same, just with loads of added features!! The apps mean that you can do everything from online banking to catching up on tv. The quality is really good too and it's so easy to navigate with the toUch screen being so easy.
I have never been an Apple fan, i use Dell laptops and have a blackberry phone but i thought i would give this little gadget a try as everyone seems to be made about them. i have to say i have now been converted and if Apple iphones were cheaper on contract i would have one of these too. The Ipad works so smoothly gliding from page to page and opening the apps is never a problem, they always open straight away with one touch, compared to other android tablets that crash or take a few taps to get it to recognise you are trying to open something. The creen is brilliant too, very bright and clear and i have set for hours playing games on it and has not effected my eyes at all like some screens. i cant see much difference between the newer module and the Ipad two apart fromt he screen and voice recognition and to be honest if you are happy with the IPAD2 there is no need to spend all that money out again ont he slightly upgraded version. For the price it costs however i do feel it is slightyl on the expensive side and is only really worth it if you use it for everything you do and not switch between the ipad and a computer, maybe because some things are easier on a computer such as switching between sites or looking at documents.
The main good things i would say the Ipad has are: really good apps both free and chargeable, quick access to emails, watching films in bed as so easy to hold, getting daily podcasts and news articles, using it the same as a kindle + the bigger screen.
The down sides are: no flash support, no USB ports, is not adaptable with anything other than apple software and hardware, cant plug my camera in to look at pictures or any slots for SD cards.
However even though there are a few down sides it is still a great little device for when you are sitting on the sofa and want to surf the internet, play games or listen to music.
So I got my brand new iPad 2 as. A 21st birthday present, arrived from apple almost a week earlier than predicted so that was great. I plugged it into my laptop done the usual upgrades you would expect it to do. It works a treat, a lot of people were telling me not to get it but I decided to try for myself. I have so far had no technical faults, certainly nothing a quick upgrade or on/off didn't fix.
There have been a few things I am not too impressed about. When I first tried to download old apps that I had from my iPod touch, they would only show up as an iPhone sized screen, I didn't realise there is a button that says 2x to make it full screen, however when you do this with iPhone apps they go a bit blurry, they are perfectly fine to use still just a bit off picture.
Another problem I noticed is you cannot install flash player, which is very annoying for some sites! I think if apple allowed flash this would be great. I also think they should allow some kind of word or something built in (apart from the cheap looking notes. Also a way to upload to regular sites would be nice.
The wifi is great but I do regret not getting 3G sometimes, however paying an additional £100 does not seem worth it in my opinion! Considering I'd be on the go and the battery does not last 10 hours as mentioned, infect when I'm doing a few bits at a time I'm using my battery in 2 hours flat.
Overall great product definatly buy it, the sounds, the graphics and everything are great, the two built in cameras are awesome! But I think you may need to use it along side a laptop sometimes.
I do realise how lucky I am as my workplace have just bought me a 64GB Wifi+ 3G iPad 2. In the main this is because I spend a lot of time away from the office and out on the road and so it is incredibly useful for me to have a device which allows me to manage my email and calendar effectively.
At around £600 for the Wifi + 3G version this is by no means cheap and there are certainly cheaper tablets on the market - but what you get for that price tag is an incredibly slick, intuitive and responsive devise which is an absolute joy to use. I really cannot express how much easier this makes my working life and having the 3G means I am also not beholden to finding wifi spots, which is amazingly useful when I am in the car.
The iPad is astonishingly thin and light and this means that I can slip it into my handbag easily enough, I therefore feel safer carrying this than my full size laptop as it is far less conspicuous. As a female this matters a lot to me.
The touchscreen on this device is very accurate and easy to use, I find I can type as quickly on the
keyboard as I can on my laptop or a desktop and I rarely have problems hitting the wrong keys, it is amazing how accurate the touch screen is for this in particular. Answering emails properly and with a detailed response is made very easy by the iPad (although I have to say the iPhone is also brilliant for this).
I have become a proper iSheep over the last few months and now possess two iPhones (one work and one personal) and the iPad. One of the advantages of using both the iPad and the iPhone is that the iPad is second nature if you are used to the iPhone operating system and organisation structure (although I actually believe the iPad is so intuitive anyone could pick it up and figure it out pretty quickly).
For speed the iPad is, I believe, unbeatable. Browsing the internet on it is amazingly easy and fast and regardless of the number of tabs you have open it is consistently slick. In fact, in my house the laptop has become virtually redundant because it is just so much quicker and easier to pick up the (always ready to go) iPad.
Battery life is impressive on this device and although I use it for an hour or two every day I find it only needs charging a couple of times a week and it seems to hold the charge well if I have fully charged it and then do not touch it for a couple of days. It is also very useful that it uses the exact same charger as the iPhone so I only ever need to take one charger with me to conferences and the like.
You can probably tell I am a big fan of these devices but that is not to say they are perfect. Being Apple rather than Microsoft does have some limitations, for instance you cannot open/use Word, Excel or any other Microsoft documents and you also cannot use Adobe flash player, you can of course download apps which do this kind of thing for you but as many of the emails I am required to deal with have such documents attached it is a minor irritation not to just be able to use them fluidly.
The other niggle I have with the iPad is that there is no USB port so you cannot quickly and easily move or back up documents from it to an external drive. There is of course the iCloud (which is great) but it means you rely on a third party source looking after any such data you move to it. In terms of using the iCloud for photos and apps and music, this is a fabulous idea and I love that it synchronises remotely and enables you to access all of your items from any device linked to it.
In terms of the amount of apps available there literally is one for pretty much everything you can think of or possibly want. I use Evernote to take notes in meetings these days and the time it saves me by already having an electronic copy of what's gone on is very helpful. I do think having the 3G is worth the extra investment as you never actually need to faff about getting passwords for wifi at each place you visit. I do believe that although work have invested in this device for me they also get more out of me in non-work time as I am inclined to answer emails whenever I pick it up and respond more quickly regardless of whether or not I am at work. This could be seen as a negative but I actually find it somewhat reassuring that I rarely ventur e into the office without being fully appraised of what's going on.
In short, I do believe that as far as tablets go this is the best on the market and, as you would expect from Apple, it gets top marks for functionality, design, ease of use and speed. I cannot fault it as a support device for my job and I feel totally privileged to have one at my disposal. When I next replace my home laptop I will have to seriously consider whether or not to just buy one of these instead, it really is that good.
Well going back a few years now when Apple released the early version of the I-Pods they were a great piece of kit, so much music in a small bit of kit, then they added to it and added the photo and video functions. Then along came the I-phone and things progressively become more and more impressive and now we have without a doubt the most piece of incredible technology released to date, the I-Pad 2!
I was always very interested in the design of the I-Pad when the original series was first released as it seemed like just the job for what I needed, wifi access with the availability to download apps as and when needed, at the time of the release I couldn't really afford to pay out for the I-Pad. However now after taking out a new contact with Orange I have been given the I-Pad 2 which has been included with my monthly tariff, all I can say at this stage is Wow!
The I-Pad 2 is my most used electronic device, over my laptop and blackberry mobile the I-Pad seems to do be able to do everything that all my other devices can but in a much considerably faster and efficient manner!
The main positives about the I-Pad 2 are the the large brightly lit LCD display, the fast processing power for the use of Apps and browsing internet and accessing e-mail etc.
Then you have the size and the fact that its fairly lightweight in comparison to carrying a laptop or other device around, I seem to use it for the convenience more than anything but simple things like checking weather forecast's, tv listings, facebook and social networking.
The I-Pad 2 comes in black or white, however the black version does look that bit more attractive to the eye. It has the same slick design which has been developed further from the evolution of the I-Phone and of course its another quality product produced by Apple.
Only negative is the price tag as they are still selling these at between £450-£600, as mentioned I have had mine included with a mobile contract through Orange so haven't suffered with the immediate cash payout just to own one but this option may not be so suited to some as they may not like to be tied in to a contract just to own such a device.
Overall a very well designed and constructed device, can not wait to see what the future holds for Apple and what new technology we may be introduced to in the near future..
I am a big fan of apple products. So when I have to choose what to buy between Apple iPad 2, Blackberry Playbook or Samsung galaxy tab to replace my old iPad, it will always be the iPad 2 that comes out as a product to buy.
I ordered iPad 2 3G 64 GB running on iOS 5 with anti-glare screen protector and free laser engraving which I opted to put my name on the back of my iPad 2 to personalize it.
The debatable topics that people always talked about are whether the apple iPad 2 is really worth the price? Or how about the customer who already has an iPad, does it really necessary to upgrade from iPad to iPad 2? Well, I have to say that so far I am somewhat satisfied with my iPad 2 experiences. While the Samsung galaxy tab leads the selling in the market, I still think that the apple iPad 2 is better if we compare it to any competitors in term of the features and technology.
Once again apple show their superiority with the brilliant product design they made. The apple iPad 2 comes with a very slim and light design. It is very similar if we compare it to the previous version really. But If you previously own an iPad, you will notice that the new product is thinner and lighter compared to its predecessor. The length and height are the same for both models, so if you think that the 9.7-inch display in the last year model is too big for you then maybe this new product is not for you. While I'm happy with the overall built, I do hope that the next version of this gadget will come in smaller dimension in terms of the length and height.
The Dual Camera
The iPad 2 comes with dual camera, the one at the back of the device, and a new integrated web cam in front of the device that has the ability to take a still picture, records a video and make a video chat with a new application support called facetime. I found the front camera really useful not only to use with the awesome facetime feature, but also to use with skype, which at the last year iPad failed to provide. While apple hyped their HD camera ability, I have to admit that the camera quality is not that "great". Perhaps "ok" or "decent" is more suitable.
One word: brilliant. The retina display is still as good as the previous product. I don't think that anyone will complain anything substantial about the iPad 2 displays because the quality is really good. Despite of that, I already knew from my iPad experience that the glossy screen glares under a bright light. That's why I bought my iPad 2 with the anti-glare screen protector.
Apple promised that the iPad 2 battery can last for 10 hours while browsing the internet, listening to music or watching video. But I don't think that my iPad 2 battery life ever match the 10 hours mark. The longest battery life for me is approximately 8 to 9 hours only with continuous usage. This is almost the same compared to my last year iPad. But I do feel that the iPad 2 battery recharged faster though.
iOS 5
Well, it has been totally different experience compared to the iOS 4. The new operating system is really awesome, rich in features, supported by established app store with a huge application choise, very user friendly and it gives this product a giant leap to leave all the competitor years behind. One feature that is really cool is the AirPlay Mirroring where I can wirelessly stream whatever's on my iPad 2 screen to my HDTV via Apple TV. But, The missing part of this brilliant OS is still the old same classic problem, where apple 'forgot' to add the flash player to the safari browser. I solved this problem by purchasing the Skyfire app from the app store which cost me more money but useful to open flash supported websites.
The overall speed performance of iPad 2 is much faster compared to the old one. I can tell the speed different when I open an application, playing games or browsing Internet that it's faster.
Well, it's an apple product. The price maybe high, but once again, you get what you paid.
Where to start? This is the best thing ever!
There are lots of tablet computer devices on the market today. But for me and the majority of the tablet buying public, you just can't get better than the iPad. This is the second generation of iPad, I didn't own the first so I can't compare them. This is so stylish. It's thin yet heavy. It has so many functions there are too many to list, and the functionality is growing by the day as more apps are added, and the new iOS 5 upgrade has made it even better to own.
The iPad 2 has a 9.7 inch TFT screen which is LED back lit. This results it an amazing vivid screen picture with a resolution of 1024 x 768. The screen isn't like a laptop screen it's hard glass. This does mean you have to be a little bit more careful as the screen will shatter if dropped or knocked against with reasonable force.
The screen is a touch screen and is very good at responding to the slightness and lightest touch.
This 64 GB 3G model is the top of the range. It features a 64 GB memory full Wi-Fi, and the 3G part refers to the fact that you must insert a sim card from a mobile provider. This then enables you to use their 3G network weather you're out doors or in. This actually means you don't have to have Wi-Fi at home with this model. You just pay a set amount (this differs for each network) for an allotted amount of download space, the norm is 5G.
I find there to be so many uses for this iPad. It's great for multi page Internet browsing.
It's wonderful for Skype as the built in front facing camera is of the best quality, and the built in microphone is very clear as is the speaker.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of apps (application's) for the iPad. These cater to your every need from booking a Holiday, medical advise, translation, calculation, social networking (the official Facebook app was added recently), bookmaking, educating all the way down to the best games available. Most of these apps are available free, and if there is a charge it's normally a one off small amount.
Sky, BBC, Fox, CNN, all the major world news sources have high tech apps for the iPad. While all major publications, such as your daily newspaper, magazine or a book by your favourite author can be accessed at a touch of the screen via the built in Ebook reader.
The quality of the recordings from the built in high definition cameras is outstanding. Playback on the iPad is like looking out through a window.
I find using the Google street maps app very helpful when booking a Holiday as you can literally stroll around the streets of your destination before you decide to buy and go. You can see what the area is like, the kind of stuff you won't see in a holiday brochure.
The lithium battery used in this is great. It's lasts far longer than a laptop battery. The running time is around 10 hours from just one full charge, this means ten hours of use browsing the Internet over a Wi-Fi signal or playing back video that you have recorded. Show me another device with that kind of battery power.
There are a host of accessory's for this tablet, from the new magnetic Apple cover. Too the Apple TV device.
I can find no faults, only hundreds of positives when it comes to reviewing this beautifully designed, compact tablet computer. FIVE STARS.
This can be bought from Amazon.co.uk for £500 + shipping
I purchased an Ipad 2 about a month ago as I had recently got rid of my Iphone and was going through a sort of "I-withdrawal" phase. Was very pleased with my purchase. The device is really well designed, comfortable to use and looks great! I also couldn't believe how fast it was, very responsive compared to my 3g Iphone.
I use my Ipad for games and there are literally thousands to choose from in the app store. My little one loves her virtual pets and watching youtube videos, as well as films purchased from itunes. That is the joy of having an Ipad, there really is an app for almost anything you could ever want!
I also love the Ibooks app and would say the Ipad stands out as a very competative Ebook reader, the plus side being it has a backlit screen for bedtime reading which competitors do not have.
The only downside I can think of is of course the lack of Flash player on Apple products. I keep my fingers crossed that Apple will soon introduce this although I think we may all be waiting a while...

As a first step, cd to the directory you did the make, and then tryThis should at least get your original onboard driver back.Code:make uninstall.You could then try compat again, but use the driver script to only install the relevant driver, not the entire package.
