3G mobiles and smartphones are third generation phones. This refers to a new wave of mobile phones that were the first to use wireless technology to connect to the internet. 3G mobile phones and smartphones exploit this ability in numerous ways, from browsing the web to emailing and downloading music tracks.
Choosing 3G Enabled Mobiles and Smartphones
3G phones offer several benefits over their predecessors, 2G or second generation phones, and most modern handsets are now 3G enabled. There are a few points to be aware of when purchasing a 3G enabled mobile or smartphone, and these will be discussed below.
Because so many modern phones are 3G enabled, there is a huge amount of choice when it comes to the type of handset that can be chosen. They tend to fall into two basic categories – feature phones and smartphones.
Feature Phones
At the lower end of the 3G range are relatively simple handsets, often known as feature phones, with limited web browsing and other internet functions, including emailing and possibly social media apps. These phones tend to have rather more basic cameras, typically with a resolution of about 2 megapixels.
At the higher end of the 3G range are smartphones with faster processors and advanced internet functions. Smartphones look and act in many ways more like a computer than a phone, and are often considered a hybrid between the two. Browsing the internet is easy, and there are a huge number of apps that can be downloaded. Smartphones with touch screens allow easy access to all the phone's functions, and the screens are larger with better resolution. Smartphones also have better, higher resolution cameras with the capability to take excellent pictures.
Operating System
Smartphones, like computers, have different operating systems that run the different programmes on the phone. Which operating system the phone uses affects the apps that can be used on the phone. There are several operating systems, the main ones of which are outlined in the table below.
Android is the most popular operating system available and has many advantages over other operating systems. Phone owners benefit from its simple user interface and enormous range of apps, many of which can be downloaded for free. Android can run several apps at once to allow seamless multi-tasking. It is also easily customisable to suit individual requirements. Most phone manufacturers include handsets that can be used with Android in their range. Android is designed to integrate with the Google desktop environment and features on phones like the Samsung Galaxy S7.
Apple iOS
Apple iOS benefits from an intuitive and user friendly multi-touch interface. Thousands of apps and games are available – iOS has the largest collection of apps of any mobile operating system. iCloud can store users' music, photos, documents, contacts, and much more as well as making them available on connected devices such as a Mac or iPad. Together with voice activation software, advanced graphics, high level security features, inbuilt accessibility, and easy updates, there are numerous benefits to using Apple iOS. This features on the new iPhone 6s.
BlackBerry 10 has been praised for its excellent interface and web browser. BlackBerry 7 and previous versions also benefit from fluid interfaces and fast, responsive Liquid Graphics. This all benefits the range of apps and games available, but the disadvantage with BlackBerry is the more limited number of apps available compared to Android or Apple iOS. BlackBerry Balance is a feature designed to keep personal and business information separate and secure.
Symbian is Nokia's operating system, available for use with a wide variety of handsets, including both touchscreen and QWERTY handsets. The operating system is designed to be energy efficient, partly because internet connection is not required at all times. Together with superb multi-tasking capability and a good selection of apps, Symbian is one of the easiest operating systems to use. Navigation and voice guidance are additional features.
Windows (WinMo)
WinMo, the Windows operating system for mobiles, benefits from excellent multi-tasking capability, the ability to hold a huge number of apps either on system memory or external memory cards, and high quality apps. Compared to some other user interfaces, WinMo is not quite as cutting edge in design or style, but this is improving. One of the big advantages WinMo has over other operating systems is its ability to integrate seamlessly with Windows for desktops.
SIM Status
When buying a 3G enabled phone, there are a number of options when it comes to the SIM card status required. These are outlined below.
Typically mobile phones and smartphones are sold with a contract for terms ranging from around 12 to 24 months. This makes the cost of the handset cheaper, so is useful for those without the cash for a new handset upfront, but it does tie the user into a specific network provider and monthly payments.
SIM Free
SIM free phones come without a SIM card. They may still be locked to a particular network, but the user can choose the payment plan. They may also be unlocked. If not tied to a network, the cost of the handset may be more expensive.
Pay as You Go
Pay as you go handsets are paid for upfront and come with a SIM card that can be pre-paid before making calls. They are typically locked to a certain network. They are a good choice for those that use their phones infrequently.
Unlocked phones are not restricted to a certain network. If bought new, this means that they can be quite expensive because the network provider has no guarantee of recouping costs through fixed monthly payments. It does give the user more flexibility and choice.
Data Capacity
One of the important things to check out when purchasing a 3G enabled mobile and tariff is the provision for data usage. 3G phones are designed to be able to transmit large amounts of data – this is necessary for certain internet functions such as video streaming – so it makes sense to take advantage of this with a tariff that offers a decent data usage. Downloading uses up the data allowance just as calls and texts do, and if it is exceeded, extra charges may apply.
Buying 3G enabled mobiles and smartphones involves consideration of factors such as the type of handset required and operating system. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative, you can always purchase a refurbished mobile. There are various types of handset available, which fall into the two basic categories of feature phone and smartphone. Feature phones are the more basic, with limited web browsing capabilities and typically low resolution cameras, whereas smartphones are more similar to computers in their user interface, with numerous apps and high resolution cameras. Which operating system is chosen affects factors such as the display interface, graphics, number and quality of apps and document storage. Other factors to be considered when buying a 3G enabled phone include SIM card status and data provision.

Federal Way man ejected from car dies during rollover collision
A Federal Way man who was ejected from his car after it flipped several times died at the scene on Tuesday.
The man was identified as Sergey Romashevskiy, 26, according to the King County Medical Examiner's Office.
Federal Way police responded to the rollover collision at approximately noon in the 2500 block of SW 344 St. in Federal Way. Just before the crash, a Tacoma Police Department dispatcher reported the man was recklessly driving his vehicle near the Tacoma and Federal Way boundary, according to Federal Way Police Department spokesperson Cathy Schrock.
Witnesses at the scene reported the vehicle was driving at a high rate of speed and struck a parked car while attempting to pass illegally. The car flipped several times, ejecting the man from the vehicle, Schrock noted.
It is unknown why the man was driving recklessly or whether alcohol or drugs were involved. Federal Way police are investigating the accident.

* EU's deal to close failed banks not enough, say economists
* Deal won't break "doom loop" between banks and states
* Governments left with bill while resolution fund being built
* ECB to hold rates, but poll shows downward bias
By Andy Bruce
LONDON, Jan 3 (Reuters) - The European Union's blueprint to close failing banks won't be enough to break the pattern of euro zone states haemorrhaging funds by propping up weak lenders, a Reuters poll showed on Friday.
Hailed as "the final pillar" for a banking union by Germany, last month's deal aims to prevent bank failures from dragging governments to the brink of bankruptcy, as happened in Ireland and Cyprus.
It features a single resolution fund that banks will pay into over the next ten years, giving roughly 55 billion euros ($76 billion). Until then, individual governments would be left holding the bill.
In a Reuters poll this week, 27 of 41 economists said this structure would not break the so-called "doom loop" between banks and states.
"At least for the first years, the agreement doesn't go far enough in terms of risk sharing," said Kristian Toedtmann, economist at DekaBank in Frankfurt.
"If serious problems develop in the banking system, the sovereign will ultimately have to step in, probably with assistance from the European Stability Mechanism," he added, referring to the emergency backstop fund for euro zone states.
Euro zone governments have already spent hundreds of billions of euros trying to stop the rot in the region's financial system, and at a huge social cost.
With harsh austerity a direct result of the financial crisis, the euro zone has struggled to escape the spectre of recession over the last few years, and high unemployment has become endemic.
The banking union project aims to stop citizens taking the hit for the banking sector again.
By setting up a system to shutter troubled lenders, Europe would equip the ECB with the means of dealing with teetering banks. However, the scheme that has emerged, because of efforts to accommodate sceptical countries, is unwieldy.
It requires the ECB to fire the starting shot by declaring a bank as too weak to survive. What follows, however, would involve input from a new agency empowered to shut banks, the European Commission and up to 18 different euro zone countries.
Michel Barnier, the European commissioner in charge of financial regulation, expressed frustration with the watered down deal.
"When I compare it with my original proposal I have regrets," he said. "I would like to have seen things done otherwise."
Some economists were highly critical.
"If anything, the agreement will strengthen the 'doom loop' by making clear national governments' responsibility to recapitalise banks in difficulties before having recourse to supra-national institutions," said Stephen Lewis, chief economist at Monument Securities.
Lena Komileva, economist from consultancy G+ Economics, said the deal ensures that the current drivers of the euro zone's banking and sovereign debt crisis - and the forces of market fragmentation - are here to stay.
A wider poll of more than 50 economists showed the European Central Bank will hold its main refinancing rate at a record low 0.25 percent on Thursday, and through to mid-2015.
But there was a slight bias towards looser monetary policy.
Ten respondents - almost a fifth - predicted a further cut to the main refinancing rate by mid-2015, and some predicted it would hit zero. Only three predicted a hike.
There was a similar pattern in forecasts for the deposit rate, currently at zero. Six economists expect it will be cut to a negative rate, while three said it would be raised. (Additional reporting by John O'Donnell, polling by Sarmista Sen and Sarbani Haldar; Editing by John Stonestreet)

Banks and Credit Unions are Offering Prizes to Save Money in Savings Accounts
2014 Financial Security Index showed that 76 percent of Americans didn't have the recommended 6 months of expenses in an emergency savings account. A more depressing statistic is that 26 percent of Americans had no emergency savings at all and live paycheck to paycheck.
Because of recent changes in Federal Legislation on prize-linked savings (PLS) accounts, you can play the lottery, so to speak, and save money at the same time.
Federal laws used to prevent big banks from offering prize-linked savings accounts and only a few states allowed credit unions to offer these accounts. The recently passed American Savings Promotion Act Bill (H.R.3374), with rare bi-partisan support, makes PLS legal for big banks and credit unions in any state that does not prohibit it.
The law is designed to help people save more money by offering an incentive. In 2012, Americans spent $78 billion on lottery tickets according to the North American State and Provincial Lotteries (NASPL). Ideally, some of this money will find its way into savings accounts because Americans are not saving enough. Though current savings rates are low, low rates shouldn't be an excuse not to save and possibly win money.
D2D and Michigan credit unions created Save to Win, the first scaled PLS program. A majority of participants in the program rolled their savings account over from 2010 to 2011. The program has over 50,000 unique accounts saving a total of more than $94 million.
Michigan launched a PLS program more than six years ago. The Save to Win program, one of the largest around, offers the chance to win prizes based on how much money you save each month. Every monthly $25 deposit earns an entry into a monthly prize drawing with a maximum of 10 entries a month per person.
There are monthly, quarterly and some states also offer annual prizes as much as $10,000. Even if you don't win, you save money and earn interest on your savings. The Save to Win program has been a tremendous success.
Check to see if your state passed laws allowing prize-linked savings accounts.

Can i do something to make the slider slide in touch screens?Asked by pedropv on July 02, 2015 at 07:30 PM
I want to use the form on a mobile app but the touch, especialy of the slider widgets, dont work very well. Its possible to make it better?
JotForm Support
Please see the solution provided by NeilVicente here. Would that be workable for you? If not, it's possible my other colleagues might have a more suitable workaround or two.
Thanks for the reply.
I already saw that post but i thought there would be a better solution.
I'm looking for a seamless mobile experience and it wont do that. No one likes doing forms and slides are a more interesting way of inserting data but if slides wont work properly in touch devices, it wont be a solution.
Still looking for a solution :(
Thanks anyway
You can try exploring the numeric slider, perhaps this will react more better to touch input.

Rainn Wilson Gets Cheeky at the Independent Spirit Awards
Is there really room for two Mickey Rourkes in this world?
There was at last night's Independent Spirit Awards, at least.
As part of the entertainment for the evening's festivities, Office star Rainn Wilson donned a blond wig and green tights in homage to Rourke's Randy "The Ram" Robinson role in The Wrestler (which scored Rourke a Best Male Lead award at last night's Indys).
Oh, and the 43-year-old actor flashed a too-generous glimpse of pasty butt cheek while he was at it.
Hopefully Wilson didn't continue to follow Rourke's lead and maul everyone he could get his hands on afterward.
The evening's festivities also included Desperate Housewives actress Teri Hatcher writhing seductively while gripping what appeared to be a dog collar. Though, truth be told, that might have just been her normal Saturday night routine.

Edit: As a lot of people seem not to be reading the blog, I'm going to clear up the most common misconception first. I play Yasuo, he is a lot of fun, you should try it. I don't need any advice on how to counter him.
I'm a player who has always played to within a sliver of my power in toplane. What I mean is, I'm as aggressive as I can possibly be without dying. This generally means I ward up and go full offense on the enemy, going for kills while paying less attention to CS as I could be. This means I'll usually (60% of the time) be leaving lane something like 3/1/2, but be down 15% of the CS as my other laners. This is a playstyle I'm very comfortable with.
But Yasuo, whew.
There isn't a single other champion in the game who I feel it's actually worth ignoring the other laner and getting perfect CS with. On paper and in game, he scales so much harder than anything anybody else has to offer. I could pick Tryndamere, and when I do, I play him very well, but why would I pick him when I have Yasuo, who does more damage and has more crowd control and blah blah blah.
My point is, Yasuo represents a new paradigm for my play, and for the game in general. I really think Yasuo is going to be picked up by the pros, since he is so good with gold and the pro scene is so passive in lane in general, he is going to be making all of the money he could possibly be making, and carving up mages and tanks alike by 30 minutes. His damage is ludicrous, his lategame is unparalelled. His shield is incredibly hard to play against. His poke and sustain once he has Shiv is abusive.
He has weaknesses. A soloq team which does not pack many Airborne crowd controls will be more difficult to play Yasuo with, but NOT impossible or ineffectively. I feel like being able to activate R off of other's crowd controls is icing on the cake, not an all-important part of his kit.
Similar to Pantheon, he is able to function in lane and lategame without his ultimate. Since that ArPen only works on bonus armor, it is primarily going to be useful when attacking super-tank champs like Shen, Malphite, or Rammus that have been knocked up somehow. It's not going to be as noticable on other champions until they pick up their Zhonyas or GA. It's worth mentioning that a 30-minute Yasuo is able to proc his knockup from 0 stacks in about 3.5 seconds.
A lot of people are responding that you should simply "Poke him down" but I find that to be far less effective against Windman than a lot of other champions. His shield can be charged very rapidly by dashing through minions, or slower by just walking around. A targetted spell like Teemo's Q can just be Wind Walled on occasion. His autoattack range is essentially 475 making it very easy for him to last-hit even at large distances, meaning the enemy may have to get right up into your minions to hit you. After he gets a Vamp Scepter and is able to sustain his HP as well as fend off poke, it's very hard to get him out of lane. Yasuo is tremendously resistant to poke.
To finish: Yasuo IS overpowered when played a certain way. The fact that he's manaless and has a free shield makes him incredibly difficult to kill in lane (Read: Riven, Renekton, Shen), and the fact that he uses gold better than almost anybody means that if you're going even with Yasuo in lane, you're actually losing.
He's a god.
Play him before he gets a nerf and experience the golden age of the new toplane critmaster.

Investigators believe the same vandals who damaged 42 vehicles at a South Jordan dealership this weekend also broke into 38 cars at an American Fork dealership.
Employees at the Ken Garff Ford dealership, 597 E. Auto Mall Drive (1000 South), discovered broken glass on the lot about 8 a.m. Sunday. Windows had been smashed out of 17 trucks, and the navigation systems had been removed, said American Fork police Sgt. Gregg Ludlow. Side and rear windows had been broken on 21 other vehicles, Ludlow said.
Police believe the culprits are the same people who caused $120,000 in damage the same night to cars at the Jerry Seiner dealership near 10500 S. Jordan Gateway in South Jordan.

RECYFIX®HICAP® Movie
RECYFIX HICAP was developped for special drainage tasks. The channels system is used for drainage of big areas and at the same time is used as drain water canal. The RECYFIX HICAP drainage system carries the surface water as a standard linear drainage run, leads it over big distances and drains it at one point into a main water canal. The system offers high drainage capacities with "increasing drainage cross sections". So a extensive backflow capacity as retention is established. At the same time there is the possibility to choke the dispose of water into the main water canal and give the stored water step by step to the canal net.

We intend to use this as the starting point for our project and it will touch much of our curriculum. We will sing | 'No Wars Will Stop Us Singing' at school and possibly at Leeds Met. Our partners will sing at the same time in their languages and we will video ourselves and exchange videos. If possible we will use video conferencing to perform our songs at the same time to each other.
We will read the book 'What Is Peace?' and write our own ideas for peace. These will be collated and a book produced in the 2 languages, illustrated by the children.
We will draw the dove symbol in different media, according to the children's age and make paper cranes with a message of peace attached. These will be distributed around the world to as many destinations a possible. It is hoped the messages will spread and we will receive replies from many countries.
Students from Leeds Met will be invited into school to help run the workshops. Parents will also be involved in distributing the cranes and invited into school to help make them. We will publicise our work both within the community and on the internet via the etwinning space.

Land of the giants redux. It's really incredible how much talent Hollywood used to garner in one place at any given moment during the golden age. The list of luminaries is endless.
Today's well spring is parched by comparison.

Just, FYI, the man on the far right is Lou Anger, Roscoe Arbuckle's manager. Both Arbuckle and Keaton produced a number of his films at the Long Beach studio. Apparently William Desmond Taylor made many of his films there and Lon Chaney Sr. appeared in bit parts in films shot there in the late teens.

Hello everyone! This is my fanfic of Adventure Time. It centers on a new villain created right after the Lich's appearance with the Enchiridion.
Kaos Saga - Pt 1
After Billy the Hero smote and struck the Lich King down, he created a replacement by telepathingly creating one from his Well of Power. His name was Kaos. He was stored inside a prison. Should the Lich King be weakened or destroyed, he was his replacement. And now, in this Time, he was released...
Finn and Jake sat on the floor of their living room. They were playing with BMO. All of a sudden, a massive explosion was heard. The very treehouse was shaken. "What the Grod was that?!" Finn screamed. Finn turned to the window to see that the Candy Kingdom was on fire. Jake looked through the window as well, and screamed. "We've got to help them!" Jake told Finn. "Agreed." Finn replied. He grabbed his pack, along with the family sword. He hopped on Jake's back, who grew and quickly made their way to the Kingdom.
Finn and Jake soon arrived at the Candy Kingdom. They saw a hooded boy who looked about Finn's size. The hooded figure was blasting Candy people with giant black fireballs, melting large portions of their body. Finn knew that the decorpsinator serum that PB made would revive them, so no worries. At the sight of a magical dog and his owner, the hooded figure turned. "Who are you?" he asked. "I'm Finn the Human, And this is Jake the Dog! And it's time to board the Knuckle Train to Fist Planet!!!" Finn jumped up and attempted to strike the figure, but to no avail. The figure dodged swiftly and grabbed Finn's arm. "You are weak and foolish, human boy. You show no care that you are the last human... It appears that I need to teach you a little discipline. " He pushed Finn's left wrist into his bone. It was broken. The figure then tossed Finn aside. Jake took immediate action and stretched up and saved Finn from falling. "Finn! You okay?" Jake asked. "Urgh.. Get out the cyclops tears..." Finn said. Jake ruffled through the backpack and found the small bottle of cyclops tears.
Jake quickly poured on the tears and healed Finn's wrist. "Thanks, Jake." Finn said. Finn then took out his demon sword. The figure took a look at the sword. "Joshua's sword..." He said. "Shut up! How do you even know about Dad?!" Jake asked. "Joshua opposed me... I had to destroy him... I.. am Kaos." "You what?! I'll kill you!!!" Finn screamed. He jumped on and swung the sword down on his head. Kaos quickly blocked with his left hand. The sword was lodged into Kaos's hand with a black ooze coming out. Finn tried to take it out of his hand, but to no avail. Jake them stretched his hands up and turned them into hammers, where he bludgeoned Kaos's face. The sword quickly came up from Kaos's hands and Finn fell. Jake then jumped down and caught Finn. "Enough! I'll obliterate the entire Kingdom with this blast." Kaos shouted. He conjured a large black fireball and then shot it directly at Finn and Jake. Finn quickly blocked with his demon blood sword. It exploded.

Niall Horan dating Joe Jonas' ex
Niall Horan is reportedly dating Joe Jonas' ex.
The 22-year-old One Direction singer spent the weekend in Los Angeles and Las Vegas with former 'America's Next Top Model' contestant Jessica Serfaty, who split from Joe last month after a brief fling.
A source told The Sun: "Niall and Jessica have loads in common and enjoy spending time together.
"He met up with her at the UFC fight in Las Vegas on Saturday before inviting her to the football in LA the following night. They chose seats next to each other and were flirting in the box. Niall even pretended to pull a wrestling move on her for a laugh.
"They seemed to be getting on really well."
24-year-old model and actress Jessica has a young son with her former husband Ididia Serfaty.
Niall was last linked to Selena Gomez and brought her to the 'X Factor' wrap party in London in December where they were spotted kissing.
A source said: "They spent the entire night locked together and were very touchy-feely.
"They kissed in a corridor. There is no doubt there is something going on between them."
However, Niall has spent the past few months travelling around South East Asia during his One Direction hiatus and Selena has since been linked to sales executive Samuel Frost.

I've been marketing online for quite a few years now and have built up a nice e-mail list (about 30,000 subscribers). The lists have been developed over time from a variety of sources. Some are subscribed to me because they are on my team, others are leads that I've generated through various traffic sources like Bing, Solo Ads, etc. Some are on my Shannon Lavenia or newsletter lists. Some have inquired about working with myself…

Throughout your career, there are always going to be times when you feel nervous, anxious or simply afraid of the unknown. You may be preparing for an important presentation to a group who does not support your proposal. You may have just accepted a new leadership role and suddenly your peers are now reporting to you. You may be about to approach management to register a complaint regarding the organization and are fearful of how it will be received. As odd as it sounds, these are everyday occurrences that must be dealt with in a calm and confident manner.
When you feel yourself becoming nervous as you approach a situation, apply one or more of the suggestions below to restore a feeling of calm and collected preparedness to your being and move forward. These suggestions not only work well in a professional situation but can also be applied in your personal life.
Temporarily Walk Away
The word "temporarily" is important here. You cannot abandon the situation you are faced with altogether and must return to it. However, simply taking a moment to remove yourself from it can make all the difference. Step out into the hallway, go to the restroom or step outside and breathe in fresh air. A couple of minutes to simply gather your thoughts and regroup can make all the difference.
Shut Your Eyes for a Moment
Your eyes are constantly sending hundreds of signals to your brain when they are open. Color, shape and depth of every single item and person in the room are being processed. Your nervous system is on overload already and this just adds to it. Close your eyes for a moment and block out those signals. With your eyes closed, you can focus more on what is going on behind the eyelids.
Alone Time
Seek out a place at work or home where you can be completely alone. Perhaps a little-used conference room at work or out in the garage at home. When you are nervous, you need a place where you can go and just be by yourself for a brief time. No distractions, no conversation, no TV and definitely no computer or cell phone. Just you, alone with your own thoughts, can make a huge difference.
Back to Nature
Inside an office building, regardless of how big, can still be very confining. Take a moment to go outside. Walk around the exterior of the building, or take advantage of a walking trail. Driving around in your car with the windows down is a great way to boost your spirits and take your mind off being nervous. The smell of freshly cut grass or someone grilling out can cause an immediate reset of your nervous system and an instant calm.
Take Deep Breaths
Breathing, by its very definition, is the body's way of supplying oxygen to the organs and exhaling the toxins which can harm the body. The brain and nervous system benefit the most from this largely involuntary function. Now try something called "deliberate breathing." Slowly breathe in for a count of four, hold your breath for a count of four, slowly breathe out for a count of four and do not breathe in for a count of four. Repeat this several times until your feeling of nervousness is replaced by a sense of calm. It really works!
Music Hath Charms
Listen to a minute or so of your favorite music. It does not have to be Beethoven or Bach but it certainly can be. For your own personal taste, it could be Aerosmith or Van Halen. Something that relaxes you, or something you can sing to. The important thing is, that it allows you to lose yourself in it and erase every other thought from your mind. Your thoughts will return and they will return quietly and calmly.


text: This has probably been answered before, but I figured I'd ask. I'm a total noob when it comes to phones (currently on a samsung alias w/ no data plan), but I am a linux sysadmin by trade, so I kinda/sorta know what i'm doing. I am interested in purchasing the epic 4G and using it as a phone (with all of the regular features) and as a wifi hotspot (without paying the $30/mo fee) for my mac running OSX running 10.6. From reading through these threads it appears I *should* be able to do this. It seems like a 2 part process: 1. the 1-click rooting your phone bit and 2. downloading a wireless application. Here are my questions: 1. Can I use macOSX to root the phone, if I use windows under VMware Fusion? I know the theoretical answer...but has someone actually done this? 2. Has anyone succesfully connected to the phone/hotspot using macOSX? 3. Is it possible to use the phone in non hotspot mode, i.e. via a usb cable to a Mac? If not, no biggie, assuming #2 works. 4. Is the idea to avoid doing any kind of auto updates to android after rooting? 5. 4G just came to San Francisco and has some nice DL speeds. The speeds remain intact after rooting and all that? Seems like it would, but gotta ask. GPS still works? 6. Lastly. Any downsides a noob should know about? Thanks for the responses.

Good afternoon and thank you all for being here. Thank you to the Chamber for hosting this today. The strong relationship between the City and the Chamber is valuable and something none of us take for granted. So thank you for having me here today.
This is now my second State of the City as Mayor of Shawnee and I am honored and humbled, as I've always been, to be in this position of representing all of you and this wonderful City of ours.
I was at a Chamber of Commerce coffee last month when the theme for this year's State of the City just kind of came to me after being put on the spot by Mary Taylor. She insisted we go around the room and introduce ourselves and say a word that signified what we wanted to focus on for 2017. I had no idea! I have to think these things through and analyze everything. So I was put on the spot and the only thing I could come up with was the word "More". Both Julie Breithaupt and Dave Holtwick's heads spun around as they asked how I can possibly do more.
I want to do more, be more places, interact with our residents and businesses more and see Shawnee as a whole do more. This has been a tremendous year and we have accomplished so much. Today, I can only tell you a small part of all that we have done. But there is so much more I want to do! Our community has so much potential, and I want us to keep getting better every day. I quickly realized this wasn't just a good word for ME to focus on for the New Year but for our entire City.
So believe it or not, there are MORE people than just ME who help get things done in Shawnee, right? I'd like to quickly introduce my fellow City Council members who join me in making big decisions that impact you and your lives.
We'll go by seniority…whoever has MORE years, right?
Councilmember Dan Pflumm
Councilmember Mickey Sandifer
Councilmember Jeff Vaught
Councilmember Jim Neighbor
Councilmember Mike Kemmling
Councilmember Stephanie Meyer
Councilmember Eric Jenkins
Councilmember Brandon Kenig
Another round of applause for our Council and thank you for all you do.
So speaking of more, one thing I think we can all agree that we want more of is development. The group in this room gets that better than anybody. We've had some really good projects this year. Federated Rural Electric Insurance Exchange is constructing a 36,690 square foot professional office building on Renner Road and will be relocating their 60 employees to this new headquarters building. Summers, Spencer & Company, P.A., moved their offices to the BMO Harris building, and Citywide Electric is constructing a new 7,659 square foot building at 5911 Barton. Near the close of 2016, the second building at WestLink filled up with Amarr Company, and another nationally recognized company that we'll be able to announce soon is committing to occupy over 160,000 square feet. Centra Care is about to complete their urgent care medical facility on the Parkway in the center with JoAnn Fabrics and Harbor Freight Tools. This shopping center received a new façade in 2016, too. In other healthcare news, a "small hospital" has been approved for the northeast corner of 67th and Lackman.
We've also been glad to see a number of new retail and restaurant businesses…..
McAlister's Deli opened a new restaurant on Shawnee Mission Parkway on the former site of Arrow Rents. Joining them very soon on the east part of this site will be Discount Tire.
Oishi Japanese Cuisine & Bar opened in the Ten Quivira Center and Mi Pueblito Meat Market opened in Westbrooke Village.
Panera Bread recently added a drive-thru to their building on the Parkway and The Other Place opened in western Shawnee in Shawnee Crossings.
Stag's Creek is putting in a beautiful new building at Shawnee Mission Parkway and Goddard, giving our gateway the look it deserves. We have two new hotels under construction that will be bringing more people to Shawnee and who isn't excited about B&B Theatre's renovations? It is awesome to have a state-of-the-art theater right in our backyard.
Nieman Now is truly going to change the face of downtown Shawnee. Our hope is that this major makeover will boost business and attract new development while also making it even more of a place where people want to hang out, have a bite to eat and do some shopping. It's a multi-million dollar investment that will not only enhance the look and feel of downtown Shawnee but it will also convert flooding streamways into green space and provide even more community connections between neighborhoods with more trails and paths. Nieman Now is one of those big projects that we will look back on decades from now and see what a solid commitment this was to our downtown and to making Shawnee even more than it is now.
Another development that we are really hoping has a bright future is Westbrooke Village at 75th and Quivira. As you've probably heard, a Kansas City firm called Mission Peak Capital bought Westbrooke and we have reached out to them to see how we can help support a vibrant and viable development for this area. This has long been a property residents have asked about and wanted to see change. We're hopeful that something positive is on the horizon for that area.
Most of you in the room right now represent a Shawnee business. We have such great businesses, owners and workers in the City. We are honored that each of them has chosen to be here in Shawnee. So thank you and please know we appreciate your dedication to Shawnee. I am always committed to supporting our local businesses and look forward to doing even more of that this year.
But wait, there's more....
How about more books? More reading? More technology? We have that on tap too! Construction of the Monticello branch of the Johnson County Library will kick off this year out in western Shawnee and it is going to be a state of the art facility. These are just a couple shots of what it will look like but they are really working to attract young and old alike by offering more options than what you think of when you think of a standard library. It will feature cutting edge technology, a rooftop terrace and trails with interactive elements outside the building. The Monticello Library is just another example of new development that will help draw more people into our wonderful City.
And while we are talking about western Shawnee, you may have noticed crews are working now on the Clear Creek Parkway Project that will extend Clear Creek between Clare Road and K-7 Highway. This will not only allow for more beautiful neighborhoods, it will make it easier for people to drive to businesses out in that area. It's going to be a beautiful road and will also have a trail for those wanting to walk or ride bikes as well. You're getting it, right? More connectivity to bring more development.
Of course to support all these businesses and neighborhoods, we have to have solid infrastructure, including our stormwater system. Inspections show that nearly 31 percent, or about 57 miles, of the city's pipes need to be either completely replaced or have major repairs. We had extensive discussions about this as we worked to put together the 2017 budget. Our Council worked together to make sure the City can fund those much-needed repairs and maintenance. We decided to raise the stormwater utility fee to help pay for that. That was a hard decision because we know it impacts families, churches and businesses but we also know that we will be able to fix more deteriorating pipes now and moving forward. This fee increase marked the first time we've had to raise it since 2006 but it is truly allowing us to put more emphasis on your safety and our community's sustainability.
But wait, there's more.....
We obviously have to talk about our police department. I'd be remiss if I didn't take a moment to reflect on what a tough year it was for law enforcement nationwide. These men and women truly put their lives on the line every single day. And this isn't something they just sacrifice for themselves. It's something their entire family sacrifices and it's all so those officers can keep you and me and our families safe. It's humbling, to say the least. I am often reminded of the dangers of their job as I witness them out doing their jobs. On my way to work the other day during the fog and black ice I saw them out working a multitude of accidents and I prayed for their safety in the dangers of that situation as I passed by. Fortunately, we are blessed to have an incredible community that surrounds our law enforcement with love and support. Sometimes I think Shawnee is the exception to the norm when it comes to how our citizens treat officers. There is a lot of mutual respect here that sadly doesn't always happen in other cities. So I want to encourage and embrace more of that as our police department continues to grow.
As you've likely heard, we landed two big federal grants at the police department. One will help pay for five more police officers. That means more coverage, more safety and more security. The second grant is making it possible for every single officer to be outfitted with body cameras. That puts us on the leading edge of a trend that is sweeping police departments nationwide. Both of those grants required a local cash match and ongoing expenses. Once again, our Council made the decision to put your safety and security first when they approved and accepted both of those grants. We cannot stress enough that your safety is our top priority at the City of Shawnee. So anything we can do to make things more secure will come high on our list every time.
Our police department has really stepped up its game when it comes to community events. There have been several meet and greets with the public that have gone over extremely well. They've recently kicked off a series of seminars about a range of topics including personal safety and residential safety. And who could forget the amazing stories that came out of the Shawnee Secret Santa this year? Talk about heartwarming. That's saying a lot that our anonymous donor thinks so much of our police to entrust them to hand out $10,000. Every officer I talked to who took part in it talked about how much that meant to them to be able to spread some joy during the holidays and to help give people a much needed hand up. Our police department is continually looking for new ways to do more for our community and, for that, we just can't thank them enough.
But wait, there's more....
Big things are happening with our awesome Fire Department as well. We'll be building Fire Station 74 in the northwestern part of Shawnee to make response times even faster and it will help us prepare, prevent and protect even better than we do now. The City is currently looking for the best spot for Station 74 and the hope is to have it up and running in 2018. And with a new fire station comes 12 more firefighters, more equipment and more life-saving coverage for our City. The Fire Department also teamed up with several other departments in Johnson County to land a $360,000 grant to help pay for self-contained breathing apparatus. This of course helps better protect our men and women who are risking their own lives while battling fires and working to rescue people from dangerous situations.
Connecting with our community is something we strive to do very well every day as a City. This past year, the Fire Department hosted our City Open House in 2016. That was the first time we've had an Open House in a number of years so we were very excited to bring that back.
But wait, there's more...
Our Public Works Department staff managed an amazing street maintenance program this year, completing nearly 62 miles of mill and overlay. That's the equivalent of traveling from Shawnee to Topeka. They repaired more than 12 thousand feet of curbs and gutters and 28 hundred feet of sidewalk! Our Public Works crews continue to do an outstanding job of maintaining our 10,054 stormwater structures, 791 lane miles of streets, 58 signals, 241 crosswalks, 44 flashing beacon signs, 2,203 stop signs and 4,213 streetlights. They work around the clock when bad weather moves in… or even the THREAT of bad weather as we saw a few weeks ago with the major ice storm that fortunately didn't happen. So thank a Public Works employee, the silent heroes of the city, the next time you see one! Their tireless work makes our lives easier every day…
But wait, there's more...
The Mayor's Christmas Tree Fund raised nearly $23,000 dollars this year. That's more than we've ever raised and it wouldn't be possible without the support of our residents and business community. That money benefitted two local organizations… the Shawnee Lions Club and Rebuilding Together Shawnee. That money will allow them to do more good for our children and for people in need.
We've had more interest and attendance than ever at quite a few of our community events from Christmas Around Town to the Scarecrow Festival. Of course we always have an amazing turnout for Old Shawnee Days, the Craft Fair, Great Grillers and the countless other events put on through the Civic Centre and Shawnee Town 1929. There are really too many to mention unless you all want to see a whole lot "more" of me than just at these events because I'd be up here for hours! These are the events that I hear people talking about all the time. How they are looking forward to it or how much fun they had or what special memories they are making by attending these things year after year. Our City should take great pride in playing a part in these community events that thousands of people will remember and talk about for years.
But wait, there's more...
Shawnee Town 1929 continues to draw in more visitors every year. We have accomplished a lot from the first ten year strategic plan, and last year the Council approved the strategic plan for the next ten years. You'll be seeing some big changes outside these doors over the next several years including the construction of Fisher's Chevrolet, Murphy's Filling Station and Dr. Sullivan's residence. Shawnee Town 1929 continues to be a unique attraction like no other in our area as it brings in thousands of people every year, young and old and from every walk of life. Thanks to the rock star staff and the amazing volunteers and donors, it truly is a crown jewel of our community.
As Mayor, something I always want to be doing more of is communicating directly with the people of Shawnee. I host Third Thursdays every month at the Civic Centre. We have a group of about 20 regulars, and also new faces every month, who come to those to get updates on what is happening in the City. I also do Quarterly Q&A's and that's been a great avenue to catch a different group of people who might not be able to come during the day. And I'm definitely working on even more opportunities to connect with the community whether it be more business tours or speaking at even more events.
You may have noticed we are focusing quite a bit more on social media and getting the word out about big City projects, meetings and events. In fact, from this time last year, we have nearly 2,500 more Facebook followers, nearly 1,200 more Twitter followers and nearly 7,000 people get our updates through Nextdoor. This is truly making it more convenient for our residents to get answers to their questions quickly and efficiently and also to just get informed on what is happening in Shawnee.
We are working on building and launching a new website this year. It is one that is being designed with the main purpose of making information at the City of Shawnee easier to access for our residents.
We continue to build more relationships with our community and our schools. One example of this is how our police department has been working with Mill Valley High School Journalism Students to produce videos to promote safety in our City. One of the videos addressed an ongoing problem of folks warming up their cars and leaving them empty and unlocked. So let's take a quick look at what the students came up with to get the word out about that.
So this has been a really fun new partnership we've been working on and we hope to expand it out to produce a few videos for some of our other departments, as well. And you may have noticed a couple Mill Valley High students here taping the speech for us today. Thank you to Kaylie and Julia for joining us today. We appreciate it!
Citizen feedback is perhaps one of the most important parts of my job as Mayor and our job as a City. This year's Citizen Satisfaction Survey is out now and we will be getting results back in a couple weeks. We are excited to see what our residents think is going well and to see where they think we can improve. And if you didn't get a survey mailed to you, we'd encourage everyone to go on the City's website to fill out the survey and please tell people you know to do that as well. The wider range of people we have weighing in on what we are doing, the better. We are always striving to improve and do more for our residents and our businesses.
For me, increasing awareness and engagement with the community is key and it is something we will be doing much more of moving forward.
This past October, I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to visit two of our Sister Cities. My family was able to join me, Councilmember Brandon Kenig, Johnson County Commissioner Jim Allen and Shawnee Sister Cities Club President Dennis Busby on a two week trip to Erfurt, Germany and Pittem, Belgium. It was an incredible trip and we had the opportunity to meet lots of people and really get a face to face and firsthand experience in both cities… especially with their fire departments. To my dismay, they do not have local police and made me appreciate the fact that we do even more. What really struck me is the strong bond of friendship and the respect that is evident between Shawnee and our European sister cities. We have parks dedicated to our Sister Cities and our City flags are flying there as well as other symbols. The connection is everywhere. And even though they are halfway across the world from us, they encounter the same issues we do. Their goals are the same as ours.
Ok, while I LOVED everything about the entire experience, the people, the food, the history, the architecture, etc. There is one thing I was MESMERIZED by. All of their cows and sheep wear bells around their necks and it makes the most beautiful sound I have ever heard. I could have stood out in the rain for hours listening to the cow bells.
Maybe we can get MORE cows in Shawnee? That wear bells?! :)
Here – take a listen so you can see what I'm talking about.
We've seen lots of changes over the past year when it comes to retirements and more people will be leaving this upcoming year. People with decades of experience are moving on. We are so thankful for the wealth of knowledge they have brought to the City. We are trying to keep in mind that change can be a good thing and we are fortunate to have good people and good employees who are ready to fill those big shoes.
2016 took some dynamic leaders from us across the country and we were no different. Among others, we lost both longtime City Attorney Marvin Rainey and former Mayor Tony Soetaert. Both men were truly pillars of our community. Their legacy and impact on Shawnee was enormous and will be seen and felt forever. And talk about more. They set the stage for more.
So with the theme of "more" it seems fitting to honor and celebrate Marvin and Tony today, because they of all people would want Shawnee to keep growing and doing more.
So today, I would ask that you raise your glass for a toast to Marvin and Tony, a toast to Shawnee and a toast to more in 2017.
Thank you.

HA NOI Violations along railway corridors are the main reason for an increase in railway accidents this year, according to a senior official from the Ministry of Public Security.
"About 90 per cent of railway accidents occur at intersections where there is no safety fence," said Tran Son, deputy head of the Traffic Accidents Investigation and Instruction Unit of the Road and Railway Traffic Police Department.
The number of deaths and injuries caused by railway accidents in the past 11 months exceeds last year s figures, according to statistics supplied by the General Department of Police within the ministry.
Over the past 11 months, there have been 391 railway accidents, killing 178 people and injuring 259 others. Compared to last year, the number of deaths increased by four and the number of injuries, by 14.
Son said a lack awareness among residents and violations along railway safety corridors were the primary reasons for the increase in accidents.
"Crossing road and railway intersections requires a lot of caution, but many people drive at high speeds and don t pay attention," Son said.
Serious violations along railway corridors have been discovered and a large number of illegal intersections have been created.
"There is no accurate figure of the illegal intersections but they are estimated in the thousands," Son said.
According to Nguyen Chien, deputy director of Ha Thai Railway Management Company, railway corridor violations include the establishment of temporary kiosks for selling goods and informal markets set up at different times of day.
Figures from 2008 revealed that there were 304 violation areas along the 34km of railway in Ha Noi.
Railway inspection authorities said the illegal crossings didn t have signs and hindered the vision of drivers and pedestrians.
Meanwhile, many intersections had degraded to substandard levels.
Nguyen Trong Thai, deputy head of the National Traffic Safety Committee Bureau, admitted that adequate investment had not been spent on many intersections.
Therefore, examinations of all intersections should be completed to determine upgrade needs, he said.
From now until 2020, about VND4.1 trillion (US$216 million) will be spent on restoring safe rail crossings nationwide, according to Nguyen Van Doanh, deputy director of the Viet Nam Railway Department.
In the meantime, the Ministry of Transport and the National Traffic Safety Committee have co-operated with relevant agencies in regions to investigate violations and to ask organisations and individuals to destroy or remove anything in the way of railway traffic.
"From 2009 to 2010, the sector will provide compensation and remove any structures that interrupt railway traffic, including fences, flyovers and handrails. From 2011 to 2020, overpasses will be built at railway and highway intersections," he said. VNS

One of the most popular mobile chipset makers Qualcomm has already build a rock solid reputation in the smartphone market by its well known Snapdragon processors. Among all, the Snapdragon 800 made the best impact among the users while the Snapdragon 400 and 600 are also pretty amazing.
But those who have been following the company's latest products, you might have heard of the new chipset called Snapdragon 805. The chip was unveiled last year around November and now the Korean manufacturer Pantech is reportedly said to unleash the device called the Vega Iron 2 which will be powered by the same processor.

Many have asked why Kaoru and I share a bed, others receiving a nosebleed just from the idea. The answer we've always given them was one that required no thought.
"Well, we're always together," One of us would always say. But, not today.
Though we are never apart, the reason we sleep in the same bed has more reason than just that. And today, I'm going to give you the full story, so, listen up.
We were about five or so, drifting off to sleep in our separate full sized beds. Our parents had set us up with different beds only because they thought we would be more comfortable that way. And we didn't mind sleeping apart, not for a while at least.
There were two nightlights in the room that remained on all night. One next to Kaoru's bed, and one next to my bed.
That night, there was a thunderstorm, which didn't scare either of us in the least. We'd seen plenty of them before, so there was no reason to be scared of them. The thunder was a little louder than usual, the wind was blowing quite hard, and the rain was pouring down harder than it did in most storms.
And that's when it happened.
The power went out, leaving our nightlights off, and leaving us in a pitch black room. Staring at the ceiling that I couldn't even see, I realized I was afraid. I'd never been totally in the dark before. Closing my eyes tightly, and turning on my side, facing the wall, I tried to ignore that fact that I was surrounded by darkness. I tried to fall asleep, but I wasn't having any luck.
I heard a tiny voice, almost a whisper.
"Hika.. Hikaru."
Realizing that voice that called my name belonged to Kaoru, I quickly opened my eyes and turned to face him. His eyes were watering, and he was biting the end of his thumb. He looked absolutely terrified.
"Kaoru, what's wrong?" Even though I had a pretty good idea of what was the matter, I felt the need to ask him anyways.
It was at that moment he burst into tears. Acting without even thinking, I quickly pulled him into a tight hug, to comfort him.
"Hika..ru." He uttered my name in between his sobs. "The dark.. It's scary." He looked straight at me with fear in his eyes. I admit, I was afraid of the dark, too, but I needed to stay strong for Kaoru.
"It's alright, Kaoru. As long as we're together, we don't need to be scared."
My younger twin was a bit calmer than he was just two minutes before. While wiping the tears from his eyes, he asked me something. "Hikaru, do you.. Do you think it would be alright if I slept in your bed tonight?"
To be honest, I was a little shocked that he needed to ask. I don't think there was ever a time I'd said no to my brother.
"Of course you can, Kaoru. Come on up here." I extended my hand, silently offering him help up. He grabbed my hand and soon was laying next to me. "Let's try and go to sleep, okay?"
We lay side by side, my small hand in his, and his in mine. Both he and I felt calm. We didn't need to be afraid anymore, as long as we had each other. I slowly closed me eyes, feeling relaxed.
"Yes, Kaoru?"
"I love you."
"I love you too, Kaoru."
After that night, we asked our parents for a bigger bed that we could share. They obliged without question.
It's been years since that night, but we've never stopped sleeping in the same bed. I guess you could say it's an old habit. A habit I don't think we'll quit for at least a while.
After all, we've nothing to fear, as long as we're together.

The typical asking rate per listing is in the $20's per square foot per year. The Mechanicsville region is going through a decline in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate fell $2 per sqft per year. That's a 8% decrease in rent.
In the last 90 days, 3 listings have been made available, which means new listings most likley are leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to make an offer immediately. About 267% of the available leases in the Mechanicsville are subleases, so you might be able to snag a great spot on a short term. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet on the market, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
Even though the median size is 4,030 sqft, there are still 0 office spaces below 2,000 sqft. Most buildings in this market are around 2 floors. Most buildings in this area were built in 1993 and are Class A.

Hi guys, how was everyone's weekend? I'm also talking about Labello Original on the blog today! Curious? Continue to read and I'll tell you more!
I always get sore, dry and cracked lips when temperatures start to drop. Winter just isn't my best friend – and I always need a little help from the Labello Original to keep my lips moisturized. When they asked me if I wanted to give their brand new "Neon Limited Edition Lip Balm" a try, of course I said yes and I'm so happy I did!
Besides its awesome formula (which lasts about 12 hours), they come in these bright neon packages which I really love.
There are six different neon shades you can collect: pink, purple, orange, green, yellow and blue. They don't leave any color on your lips, but they do come in bright neon packaging and if you go out at night, they can be an eyecatcher when they glow under the UV light. How cool is that?
Don't forget the Labello Neon Limited Edition Lip Balm is limited, so you better check out labello.nl for more information.
Would ♥ it if you follow me on Social Media!

Let the games begin.
Updated 7:18 pm, Wednesday, August 5, 2015
The summer is gone.
While no competitions have taken place yet, practices for some football teams and all volleyball teams began Aug. 3.
Cross country runners have been "practicing" — that is, running miles and miles in the wee hours in the morning — for most of the summer.
During the second week of August, all football teams will be practicing and the first volleyball matches take place.
Another high school sports season has arrived.
It's always fun to look ahead at what could happen, so here are a couple of story lines of the upcoming season.
News Channel
In football, can Sam Houston retain the momentum it gained from winning the District 28-5A championship under a new head coach?
The answer from this corner is "yes."
Sure, Patrick Brown may be new to these parts and replacing former NFLer Gary Green won't be easy. But, Brown was a proven winner at El Paso Andress and there's nothing to think he can't duplicate the same success at Sam Houston. The Hurricanes will have the district's most experienced team. It doesn't hurt that they have some of the best athletes in the city.
In volleyball, McCollum might be hard-pressed to repeat its 16-0 record en route to winning the 28-5A championship, but the girls will certainly give it a shot. The Cowgirls will miss Neyda Sanchez, but they still have a bevy of talent expected to return, including junior Victoria Yzaguirre, sophomore Miranda Rich, junior Samantha Rodriguez, sophomore Alicia Garcia and senior Savannah Borjas.
These are just some things to watch. The fun comes in the ones we don't anticipate.
Enjoy the new season.

Updated to SSL. Form no longer showingAsked by alanmeaney on May 28, 2014 at 07:23 AM
I've updated our site to redirect all pages to https. I also updated the embed code to use https:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://form.jotformpro.com/jsform/33453903542957"></script>
The form is no longer showing on our page.
Any ideas for a fix?
Found the answer. Correct code removes the subdomain of 'form' and replaces it with 'www' as below comment.
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.jotformpro.com/jsform/33453903542957"></script>
just adding this in if it helps anyone, because I had problems with mine as well.... make sure you also change the word "form" to "www" in addition to adding the s to http.
so it should be https://www.jotform.com/111111111
instead of the code jotform gives you which is
JotForm Support
Glad to know you have figured out the solution, but just so you know, the official SSL URL starts with "https://secure".
That is what our embed form wizard uses for the generated embed codes.
Please feel free to contact us again should you require further help.

POLICE are hoping a $100,000 reward will help catch the killer of a Melbourne man who was bludgeoned to death on his way to work last year.
Fifty-year-old Robert Hoff was attacked with a blunt instrument and found dead at Carrum Downs, in Melbourne's outer southeast, on March 16 last year.
Police are offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of his killer or killers, and possible immunity from prosecution for the informant as well.
A resident found Mr Hoff lying face down on a path linking Hendon Court and Orsett Court in Carrum Downs.
Detectives believe he was attacked on his way to work between 5am and 7.20am,
His black sports bag, believed to contain a can of baked beans and a newspaper, was stolen and has never been recovered.
Homicide Squad Detective Inspector John Potter says someone knows who killed Mr Hoff and he hopes the reward will encourage them to come forward.
"Often it takes just one small bit of information to help put the missing pieces into place, so I am encouraging anyone with information to contact police in a bid to solve this crime and bring closure to Mr Hoff's family," he said in a statement.

Here is an overview of Thailand, of its population, economy and environment to help you to better prepare your trip to the country.
The Royal Kingdom of Thailand, more commonly known as Thailand, is a south-east Asian country. Divided into 77 provinces, it covers an area of 514,000 km2, spreading to West Burma, South Malaysia, Cambodia at the east and Laos in the north-east. The capital of Thailand is Krung Thep, formerly called Bangkok. The official language is Thai but some sixty local languages are spoken by the inhabitants.
According to the World Bank statistics, the population of Thailand was around 66,785,000 people in 2012, placing it in the 19th rank among the world's most densely populated countries. The population consists of 75% of Thai, 14% of Chinese and 3% of Malay. There are also numerous tribes in the hills, like the Mons and the Khmers.
The Thai economy is growing gradually at a rate of 6.4% and an inflation rate of 3.0%. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) amounted to $ 365 564 375 701 in 2012. The principal pillars of the Thai economy remain agriculture, processing and export of agricultural products, including rice, plus livestock. Foreign investment and tourism are also playing an important role in the Thai economy.
Thailand is a constitutional monarchy; the King is officially the head of state and head of the army forces. King Rama IX, the ninth of the Chakri dynasty, holds the record for longevity at the head of the country since 1946. In 2011, Yingluck Shinawatra was elected Prime Minister of Thailand. She was the first woman to take the commands of the Thai government.
Thailand has a tropical and rather wet climate with two seasons. The summer or dry season lasts from December to April, while the winter or monsoon season lasts from late May till November. The dry season is shorter due to the proximity of the sea. The average temperature varies between 19 ºC and 38 ºC during this season.

Are you the next Ms. Senior Athens or do you know who is? The Athens Community Council on Aging (ACCA) is gearing up for its signature fundraiser, the 2013 Ms. Senior Athens pageant. Now I know what most of you are thinking… why would I ever want to go to a pageant much less be in one? Well I am here to tell you that this event is so much more than your typical pageant. It is a celebration of the women in our community who are living well and aging well and are setting examples to so many others on the wonderful lives you can lead in this community as you age gracefully and beautifully.
The women who are celebrated in this annual event are retired and working. They are old and young. They are outgoing and some are shy. They are volunteers for almost every kind of organization you can list and most importantly each and every one of them spends their time bettering our community in some way shape or form. Not only are they inspiration to me but they are inspiration to anyone that wants to live life to the fullest and enjoy the wonderful community that we live and work in. The next Ms. Senior Athens could be your neighbor down the street or your favorite teacher growing up. She could be your mother, grandmother, or favorite aunt. We just want to celebrate her and what she is doing in our community to make it better.
Each participant in the Ms. Senior Athens pageant will participate in an interview, casual wear, on-stage question, and formal wear. During this event the audience will, like year's past, fall in love with each and every one of the contestants and want them all to be crowned the 2013 Ms. Senior Athens. However, there can only be one. Those who attend will get to enjoy the afternoon hosts; Liz Dalton and Chuck Dowdle entertain the crowd as well as performances by the Dazzlin' Dames. The Dazzlin' Dames are all former Ms. Senior Georgia contestants and had the audience in the palm of their hands at last year's event. You will leave the 2013 inspired and encouraged to do more for your community and a passion to live well and age well each and every day. The 2013 Ms. Senior Athens pageant will be held at 2:30 p.m. on April 21, 2013 at the Athens Country Club.
For more information about the pageant, to register as a contestant, or to nominate a contestant for the 2013 Ms. Senior Athens, CLICK HERE, or contact KaDee Holt at 706-549-4850.
The mission of the Athens Community Council on Aging is to promote a lifetime of wellness through engagement, advocacy, education and support. Founded in 1967 by local citizens, ACCA is a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization and aims to maintain and enrich the lives of older persons with 15 programs in 12 Northeast Georgia counties. ACCA's programs enable older persons to live independently at home and offer opportunities for employment, volunteerism, and other activities. ACCA is a resource for education, information, referral, counseling, and general assistance.
