The evolution of The Score Network from a hard-core sports highlight provider to … well, something else, was confirmed this past week with the departure of Steve Kouleas, the network's face of hockey the past 13 years. The 42-year-old and the network mutually agreed to see Kouleas and his high-energy style move on to new opportunities.
With him went the last vestiges of what was once a thriving hockey presence.
"I leave with no hard feelings," Kouleas told Usual Suspects. "I feel blessed to have had 13 years doing what I most wanted to do in life. We went from supplementing the sports wheel to creating original programs. The network is heading in another direction, and it just feels right to pursue a different path myself. We shook hands and we're still friends."
Kouleas was the host on a number of Score hockey shows where he and panelists such as Al Strachan, Steve Ludzik and Mark Osborne chewed over the hockey issues of the day. Sometimes the results were inspired, other times it was a cringe worthy. But it was rarely boring under the effervescent Kouleas, who won a Gemini nomination in 2009.
Kouleas - who interviewed for the Edmonton Oilers radio play-by-play job this summer - says he'll take a few weeks to consider his options, then get back to business.
"The secret in today's business is content," says Kouleas, who's continuing to host the Live From Wayne Gretzky's radio show. "You can't just be selling Steve Kouleas or TV. You have to bring show ideas for all the platforms out there today."
In may ways, The Score was a pioneer in the hockey TV field. With a blank canvas and acres of air time to fill, Kouleas and crew were the first to make a specialized production out of previously unheralded NHL events such as trade deadline day and the July 1 free agent frenzy - shows now staples of their competitors at TSN and Sportsnet. Hockey Night In Canada also picked up elements of their style when it signed reporter Elliotte Friedman.
With Kouleas gone (along with NBA, MLB and EPL soccer), it's fair to ask where The Score is headed. Where once hockey was the most recognizable feature of the network, NCAA basketball, horse racing, Serie A soccer, wrestling and Cabral Richards, aka Cabby, the schmoozing locker room comedian, are the new faces of the network.
In recent months, Score president John Levy has repositioned with ScoreMobile and ScoreMobile FC apps, Hardcore Sports Radio and reality-based promotions to find a niche versus the programming juggernauts at TSN and Sportsnet. Without the ability to compete for rights to the big four sports TV properties, he'll have to stay lean and creative, knowing that their best ideas will often be co-opted by their competitors.
Mad As Hell
Add Rogers cable customers who buy basic cable to the list of folks irritated by the company sending Blue Jays games to its new Sportsnet One channel. While Sportsnet Ontario is on basic cable, the new channel is not, obliging customers to either pay more for another tier of channels or miss the Sportsnet One games altogether.
Disgruntled ball fans needn't contact the CRTC if they feel Rogers is employing misleading advertising after promising to deliver the full Blue Jays season. One customer who appealed to Canada's broadcast regulator was told "The CRTC's jurisdiction does not extend to concerns such as misleading or deceptive advertising."
King For A Day
TSN is looking for a new president after Phil King was promoted to president of sports and executive vice-president of programming with CTV Inc. King, who's been with TSN for 21 years, will now assume responsibility at CTV for the Olympic TV consortium as it prepares for London in 2012 - as well as all of CTVglobemedia's TV sports outlets in English and French.
Rick Brace, who previously held the responsibilities, now becomes CTV's president of revenue and business planning. An announcement on King's successor as president of TSN and the Olympic consortium is expected this week.Report Typo/Error

The Jalopy Journal
Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by oddrod46, Dec 19, 2006.
looking to get a dash striped anyone local?
contact ..chazin ..he's on the hamb....he is the best around the georgia area ..aleast the best that i have found..what ever you do dont let TOP HAT(mike fenyo) do it..he sucks and it will flake off after a while
I second Chastin, he's from Butler Ga. and works out of his dad's shop. I may be biased (he did my car) but his work F'n rocks...
And the rear...
There's a guy named Gaucho down your way who's pretty good, I have his number here somewhere...
Yeah, but TOP HAT will stripe your car front to back for a couple of slim joints...he even includes his signature fingerprint for free!
Jamie (Metalflaked60) isn't local, but you might get him to make a road trip.
I'd get Gaucho to do it... ask him to bring his lovely girlfriend along for inspiration
I've got his card around somewhere too.
I have been traveling down to Bremen,Ga to bigOstreetrods also known as Oneal Dodge.They call me when they have about 4 or 5 to do and I drive down for the day.
Tony Davis in Lawrenceville. He's been in the same location for 20+ years. 770-962-6363. He did the lettering and striping on my coupe both times it was painted.
Sounds like we need an Atlanta Panel Jam.
This is good to know.
or purse jam or cooler jam.....haha just fucking with you...
Who's car was it that Top Hat striped "Teen Angle" (NOT Teen Angel)on? Yikes. I have a guitar that needs striping, and was going to use the guy in Marietta that Josh knows. I don't have a name or number yet. I think he's the guy that did that Lakewood Special they did on the biker build off. I saw a tank he striped up at Josh's the other day. Super straight lines. Don't know his prices either.
There might be something under the Christmas tree for you... if you're good.
your still in town???? when are you leaving??? what ya doing tonight?
I got back from Toronto on Sunday, leaving for Vancouver this Sunday.
Pinstriping a purse, maybe What's up?
Any of you guys remember a striper from the 60's from Atlanta that was called the Mad Striper.
He signed his work:
Mad Striper
Atlanta, Ga.
He used to come over to S.C. and stripe cars and did really good work.
Hot Rod Walt does it.He is in Jackson Ga
the Mad Striper was an old guy back when I was in my early 30s (I'm 64 now). Probably not around any more.
Yeah ... I remember his work well. He was good!
Do any of you also remember Buddy Ashmore? He was also top notch striper in the Atlanta area. I was asking someone about him not too long ago. I was told that he is still around and will still do pinstriping.
Brian Papa is / was very good. But he has moved to the west coast, his wife got transferred with her work. He was doing Brian Fullers work, may still be.
Bill Ingram is in the Smyrna area. But it can be hard to pin him down and IMO pricey. But he does do very nice work.
The Mad Striper is dead and gone. A buddy owns one of the last trucks he did.
Brandon from down around Carrolton can lay down some pretty nice licks for the price.
Wasn't Mad Striper and Top Hat the same guy?
Top Hat did my car shortly before he passed away and I'm quite happy with it. Nothing has flaked off, some has worn off due to never getting clear coated and me not taking particularly good care of my paint.
He told me that when he first started striping under his (uncle?) that the first job they worked was Doug new 63 Comets at a dealer. I always wondered if that was true or he adjusted that story for whatever old car he was striping.
when did Top Hat pass? he did my nova dash about 20 yrs ago still looks good
There was a post on here awhile back(I think by Anthony White)that told of his passing.Might be under Mark Fenyo.
Ok, it seems that the Mad Striper has passed away. Does anyone know his name? I thought it might be Baldwin since he signed his work that way. Come on now don't just say you remember, tell us what you remember. Post pictures of his work if you have them.
this outta help you out.....
I seem to remember when Fenyo passed away seeing an obit in one of the biker rags that referred to him as The Mad Striper? At the time I wondered if he used a different nom de plume depending on the scene.
There is a guy by the name of ronnie edwards, has a shop at lakewood, went by the name of "the sign man" think he did the wall at thunder rd in dawsonville also.
I don't know if anyone is following this thread anymore, but I got some info from what I believe to be a very credible source. I had some people tell me that the Mad Striper was the same guy known as Top Hat or Mad Hatter, Mark Fenyo. Well I questioned that because the Mad Striper signed his work Mad Striper, Baldwin, Atlanta Ga. I talked with Harvey and Wayne Richardson and they said the Mad Striper's name was Jack Baldwin. The Mad Striper used to come to Harvey's shop to stripe cars in the 60's.
I was at Gear Jam at Atlanta Dragway Saturday and noticed some pin striping on Hubert Platt's original A/FX falcon. I asked Hubert if the Mad Striper did the striping and he said yes he did. I asked did he remember his name. He said, "hell yeah, he used to live in my house. His name is Jack Baldwin."
So I am convinced the name of the Mad Striper from Atlanta in Jack Baldwin.

Procedural Law and Economics, edited by Chris William Sanchirico. Edward Elgar Publishing Company, 2012. 531 pages. $245.00, hardcover edition.
Procedural Law and Economics is a collection of information detailing the effect of economics on the areas of litigation, legal procedure, and evidence. In this, the second edition of this volume, the authors analyze some important aspects of the law and how monetary issues insert themselves in a variety of ways. The authors look at some of the more mundane aspects of the law (e.g., the economics of class actions and fee-shifting) but also some apparent aberrations (e.g., "negative-expected-value suits," where the final expected judgment is actually less than the cost of litigation).
This volume begins at the very basics, analyzing the economic benefits of both the adversarial and inquisitorial systems. From this basic analysis, the book sets forth its attempt to deal with theoretical issues (e.g., which system should be instituted to make the most economic sense) as much as practical issues (e.g., the actual costs of each system). The authors of this section, and throughout, justify their conclusions through the use of many equations, some of which are beyond this reviewer's capacity to fully comprehend. But still, even with limited understanding of these equations, one can follow the thought process of the authors through the detailed narrative analysis.
While the authors analyze the economics of such items as appeals, class actions, evidence, and fee shifting, one of the more interesting chapters (at least to this reviewer) was the chapter on "negative-expected-value suits." As previously stated, this chapter analyzes suits where the cost of litigation is expected to outweigh the expected judgment. Even with the expected costs outweighing the potential judgment, many Defendants still agree to settle such suits in a manner which makes these negative suits result in a positive gain for the Plaintiff; the authors take an economic approach to this puzzle to determine why Defendants would agree to such settlements.
Procedural Law and Economics is written in manner that is suitable for both economists and lawyers. Each chapter gives a basic introduction to the area of law in a manner that provides a basic understanding of the area of litigation being discussed; economic formulas are discussed sufficiently in detail to allow lawyers to grasp the concepts that are being discussed.
This volume is a valuable tool for those interested in procedural law, economics, and the convergence of the two. While much of the volume is theoretical, much of Procedural Law and Economics provides tools to understand why parties act certain ways when litigating. Still, a reader of this item must remember at all times while reviewing these chapters that Procedural Law and Economics only analyzes these topics based on financial incentives and disincentives; there may be many other non-economic reasons affecting how parties act throughout litigation, but Procedural Law and Economics leaves these justifications for other authors to analyze.

Comment: Semiconductor allocation? Bring it on!
0 comments post a comment
The specter of product allocation could soon rear its ugly head yet again for users of semiconductors, as well as for fabless chip companies.
The specter of product allocation could soon rear its ugly head yet again for users of semiconductors, as well as for fabless chip companies.
That became clear at the International Electronics Forum, held earlier this month in Geneva and organized by Future Horizons.
Allocation, of course, is a double-edged sword. It could work wonders for the woeful profitability of some in the industry; it allows chip suppliers to charge higher prices for their products, and foundries to demand more for their
services. But it also leaves those not classed a tier one client--on the scale of, say, a Broadcom or Qualcomm--in the back of the queue.
The prospect of big changes in inventory management, even allocation, positively cheered some delegates at the forum. Some were heard to whisper, if not shout aloud, words to the effect of, "Hey, bring it on!"
Of course, it should come as no surprise that we are likely to reach this stage again, especially to the old-timers in the sector who have survived the dips and rises that have characterized the chip industry almost since its start.
As we are reminded over and again, the industry has rarely invested so little in additional capacity, and taken out so much capacity in so relatively short a time, as in the past year or so.

The Guyserwrote a review of La Sportiva Primus Hoody Insulated Jacket - Men's on June 4, 2015
Needs a few tweaks
Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Fit: Runs small
Good materials, workmanship and finish. The hood is awesome. Two things...the arms are kind of tight and the thumb hole chanels cold air straight into the lower arms, more so than any other thumb hole garment i've worn. Should have proper wristies. Also there is no waist draw cord...feels a bit weird not having that option in an alpine garment. Once remedied, it will be a 5 star hybrid.

A Healdsburg Homecoming for Rosenblum Cellars
Pioneering Zinfandel Producer has returned to Sonoma County with a second Visitors Center
Nov 25, 2013, 16:20 ET from Rosenblum Cellars
HEALDSBURG, Calif., Nov. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosenblum Cellars, the "original urban winery" and Zinfandel pioneer has returned to Sonoma County, with a dynamic new wine tasting lounge on the square at 18 Matheson Street, Healdsburg, CA.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131125/SF23605)
The new facility offers a primary tasting room, an event and educational space, a lounge for locals and club members, and an outdoor patio. The Tasting Lounge will provide wine flight tastings, wine based cocktails, "Bites & Flights", Zinfandel ice cream, wines by the glass, and non-alcoholic beverages for designated drivers. A calendar of educational offerings will provide a forum for local growers, food and wine pairing seminars, seminars with local artists and artisanal food producers.
"It's great to be back on the square!" says Winemaker John Kane. "There's a buzz on the street and the locals are such wine enthusiasts. So many of the Rosenblum grape growers hail from Sonoma County, it really does feel like a homecoming of sorts."
Founded in 1978 in Alameda, with a dockyard winery and tasting room, for many years Rosenblum Cellars maintained two visitors' centers - the original Alameda location, and a Rosenblum "North" location on the square in Healdsburg. Closed in 2008, the Healdsburg location was greatly missed by the North Bay Rosenblum fans and after a hiatus of 5 years, Rosenblum is now enjoying a Healdsburg homecoming. The founding location in Alameda remains open and a popular destination with East Bay wine tasters and day trips on the ferry from San Francisco.
With a focus on the Zinfandel varietal and a smaller production of Rhone style wines, Rosenblum Cellars prides itself on excellent grower relations, partnering with more than 50 grape growers in premium viticultural regions around California. Over the years, the wines have garnered rave reviews from critics, and the influential Wine Spectator has called Rosenblum Cellars "a mecca for Zin-Fanatics".
To join Sonoma County Zin-fanatics and visit Rosenblum Cellars Tasting Lounge in Healdsburg please call (707)-473-9267. The Rosenblum Cellars tasting room in Alameda is located at 2900 Main St. Alameda (510) 865-7007. Located just a short car or ferry ride from San Francisco, the bay-view, dockside visitors center allows visitors to sample a wide portfolio of award-winning wines.

Here's the bootzin technique for conditional insomniacs:
1. Go to bed only when you are sleepy.
2. Use the bed only for sleeping; do not read, watch TV, or eat in bed.
3. If you're unable to sleep, get up and move to another room. Stay up until you are really sleepy, then return to bed. If sleep still doesn't come easily, get out of bed again. The goal is to asoociate the bed not with frustration and sleeplessness, but with falling asleep easily and quickly.
4. Repeat step 3 as necessary throughout the night.
5. Set the alarm and get up at the same time every morning, regardless of how much or how little you slept during the night. This helps the body to acquire a constant sleep-wake rhythm.
6.Do not nap during the day.

Technology is always changing, and more people are becoming glued to their computers and mobile devices to keep up with the world and perform daily task. Things people once did in person, such as renting a self-storage unit, are now conveniently accessible online or through a mobile app. A self-storage facility's management software can help keep operators in step with technological advances, allowing the business to run smoothly and leaving customers happy with their experience.
When searching for the right self-storage management software, keep some important factors in mind: Software needs to be quick, easy to use and straightforward for employee training. Of course, operators need to consider the upfront costs, but they also need to think about long-term expenses such as equipment and upgrades.
Compatibility with a facility's existing security and other technology components, such as a kiosk, is also critical. When looking for software, operators need to ensure all the facility's technology will function seamlessly.
Self-storage software manufacturers are in tune with today's technology trends and are incorporating them into their products. Updating their software frequently, vendors are adding features to streamline operation, increase revenue and improve the user experience. This year's highlights include mobile tools, online payments and reservations, revenue management, marketing tracking, and cloud-based services.
Mobile Tools
As smartphones and mobile devices become increasingly popular, people often assume "there's an app for that," or wonder why there isn't one. Realizing this, some software companies are adding apps to their products. For example, self-storage managers can use an app to conduct facility walk-throughs and check unit locks. They can also make notes on site maintenance, mark units for scheduled move-outs, and create online reservations and inquiries.
Centershift Inc., a company that provides two Web-based products, is planning to expand its platform to mobile devices, tablets and other non-desktop devices to extend "functionality for users into more convenient forms," says John Bilton, vice president of business development and marketing.
In late 2011, SMD Software Inc., provider of SiteLink management software, released the latest version of its mobile-reporting module, which allows users to view real-time software reports via the Web on any computer or mobile device. The module allows self-storage operators to look over reports by facility or as consolidated documents. It runs on all Internet-ready devices including desktop computers, smartphones and tablets.
Online Payments and Reservations
Self-storage customers want to do business from wherever, whenever. Software that allows renters to make payments and reservations online gives them the ability to do so at any time, even after hours.
"The online payment is popular for probably the same reason 'pay at the pump' has caught on—convenience!" says David Essman, director of marketing for Sentinel Systems Corp., a provider of self-storage management software and security systems. These two features are popular and now available from several software vendors, including Sentinel Systems and Empower Software Technologies. Empower will soon provide customers with a new facility-management system that runs as a standalone or Web-based program.
The prevalence of online marketing is one reason more software companies are moving toward Web-based products. "[Operators] made the transition [from] depending heavily on Yellow Page ads and print media for their self-storage property advertising to marketing their properties via their own company website," says Alison Kiesa, sales and marketing director of Syrasoft Management Software LLC.
After getting online, the next step for self-storage operators was to accept payments and reservations via the Web. Existing customers can view their balance and pay bills from any Internet location with Syrasoft software. Other vendors provide similar capabilities. Reservations can be made by current tenants, so the unit will be ready when they arrive at the site.
Last year, Sentinel Systems added more payment options, including the ability to affix a transaction fee to its online-payments module. The new features also include greater credit card encryption to protect customers and tenants, Essman says.

I know, two blogs in as many days is unheard of!! Just a quickie to finish off the update about my new craft room. I know it will be great, but first the clearing out of the old toys. I seem to be spending more time remembering the hours they played with the Lego and what fun we had on many a rainy day with the box of Early Learning animals and who could forget the fingerpaints and dot to dot books............( I could continue , but I won't.)
I can hear you ask why hasn't she cleared this out earlier? Well, the answer is simple I ALWAYS MEANT to get round to it, but never did.
As you can see it is a mammoth task now, but I SHALL OVERCOME. Have a laugh at my expense, I deserve it. Till next time, when I might have some crafty bits to show.

text: Northern White Rhino: Now Ceratotherium cottoni? Using genetic data and re-assessing physical evidence, scientists write that they have uncovered a new species of rhino (Ceratotherium cottoni), long considered by biologists as merely a subspecies (Ceratotherium simum cottoni). Researchers write in an open access PLoS ONE paper published last year that evidence has shown the northern white rhino is in fact a distinct species from the more commonly known—and far more common—southern white rhino (Ceratotherium simum, formerly Ceratotherium simum simum). If the scientific community accepts the paper's argument it could impact northern white rhino conservation, as the species would overnight become the world's most endangered rhino species with likely less than ten surviving. The researchers found that the skull of the northern and the southern white rhino are 'readily distinguished' and that the animals can be differentiated simply by looking at them. In addition, the genetic study found that the northern and southern white rhino diverged around a million years ago. "Its taxonomic distinctiveness argues strongly for its conservation, as its demise will mean the permanent loss of a unique taxon that is irreplaceable," write the authors. Currently 8 northern white rhinos are confirmed to survive, however four of these though are no longer able to breed. The last four northern white rhinos capable of saving the species were transferred from Dvur Králové Zoo (Czech Republic) in 2009 to Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Laikipia/Kenya where they are guarded around the clock (the photo shows Suni, a male northern rhino, arriving in Africa). While dire, the situation may not be utterly hopeless. "The admirable success of the conservation histories of the Southern white rhino and the Indian rhino, both of which were brought back from the brink of extinction by successful conservation efforts, does, however, hold out hope that the northern white may yet be saved for posterity," write the authors. Conservationists hope that by providing the four rhinos—two males and two females—with their natural habitat will provide a better chance for breeding. Rhinos are notoriously difficult to breed in captivity.

Breakfast club leader Cheryl Herrick said: "We are very proud of our breakfast club, which is hugely beneficial for parents and pupils.
"It improves attendance, encourages social skills and starts the day in a positive way.

Tottenham's 2-1 win over Arsenal at White Hart Lane means Andre Villas-Boas' side now have more points than Harry Redknapp's Spurs team did at the same stage last season.
After 28 games played Spurs now have 54 points in the league, one point more than the 53 points Tottenham had amassed at the same time last year.
With ten games to go Redknapp's men had just lost their last three games against Arsenal, Manchester United and Everton before continuing their winless run in the next two matches with draws against Stoke City and Chelsea.
Concerns that Spurs may slip into another late slump this campaign have so far proved unfounded as the team have won their last four in the league and are unbeaten in 12.
Tottenham had trailed last season's points total ever since the second match of the campaign.

Crysis 3 Graphics Will 'Melt Down PCs' – Crytek
Crysis 3 will push PC gamers' rigs in much the same way as the first game in the series, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli has revealed.
Crysis is infamous for being one of the most demanding PC games ever at launch, with PC spec requirements becoming a barrier to entry for many – so much so that it became something of a running joke in comunity circles.
"That joke will be resurrected again with Crysis 3, I'm quite sure about that," Yerli said during an EA livestream. "There are brutal expectations around the PC version of Crysis 3. So this time we promise to melt down PCs."
Crytek recently revealed a video showing how Crysis 3 will push the CryEngine to even more visually-impressive heights.
Yerli reiterated that the PC version of Crysis 3 will "look fantastic" despite the compromises inherent in simultaneously developing the game for PS3 and Xbox 360.
Crysis 3 launches in February next year.

In pushing for price transparency in health care, advocates have argued that patients can make smarter decisions if they know the cost.
A study in the Journal of Consumer Research suggests, however, that patients might actually make worse choices if they had more price information.
According to Kaiser Health News, one group of patients was told a flu shot cost $25 while a separate group was given a $125 price. In both cases, insurance would pay, so the patients would have no out-of-pocket cost.
Patients in the group offered the lower price thought the vaccine had "high communal need" and was therefore more important to their health. Conversely, the higher price made those in the other group think the vaccine was less accessible and therefore less important. The patients used price information to draw a surprising and inaccurate conclusion.
Researchers said the result could be bad medical decisions, maybe even dangerous ones, according to Kaiser. "Price and risk should be very independent from one another when you think about consumers making informed health care choices," said Janet Schwartz, a professor at Tulane University and co-author of the study.
It's a confounding notion that we consumers might really be that foolish in our thinking process. Fortunately, the solution is one that needs to be in place anyway: information both about price and about medical need and effectiveness.
The problem today is that price information is almost totally absent in the decision process, but that doesn't mean it should be the only factor. There's no substitute for education and discussion with a health professional to weigh the relative value against the price.

Forgive me PS for I have sinned,
I've posted a poem I ought to have binned,
I have read many poems without leaving a word,
And wonder why my opinion's unheard,
The odd shameless plug is not beyond me,
(My e-book's on Amazon if you'd like to see!)
I've spent too many hours creating a poem,
When there's plenty of housework waiting at home,
Not to mention my hogging of all the broadband,
It's not fair on my man, he pays for it and,
He deserves his far share that's clear to see,
So I'm asking PS would you please forgive me?

Look Away
Don't look this way
For I have been burned in the face.
Defeat and captured
Only released by the sound of my breathing.
From dust till dawn
I say look away for I no longer wish for you to see me.
Released the blood from my eyes.
Look away for I have you placed in my heart
I wish you not to see me this way.
Though I be burn ,torn,tattered and fatal wounded
Shall my breathing keep me sane.
May you memory keep me warm
See these words I speak,hear me breathing so shallow.
Feel the darkness that formed in my eyes
Since this is my mind I may be released.
But forever trapped in a maze that brings
Me up to drag me down.
Look away for I am burned in the face
As long as you remember your in my heart,
And memory I shall be in yours.
So I shall say look away
For I am burned tattered and torn inside my mind.
Just look away

Forgotten somewhere in the midst of steel and concrete.
Bound by shackles and chains even in our sleep.
Living like wolves preying amongst lost sheep.
Concrete tears and pains so mindfully deep.
Forgotten by those on the outside.
We cant even run no where, we cant even hide.
No choice left but to sit and fight.
In here only the strong minded survive.
Truth be told in here what is wrong is right.
All most os us got is wasted M&^*&F*^&&ng time.
We sit back and work out and write heartfelt rhymes.
Not to be a victim of prey we all trying.
Many stories are told, songs are written of truth over lying.
We are gone for the moment but not truly forgotten so the hurt we must not show it.
We are to old while we young to be crying in front of full grown men for this is a time we must out grow it.
There aint no way out this hell hole and we all know it.
Feelings of hopelessness surrounds te heart to the point where we can no longer control it.
In here there is only time no fun.
Darkness fills night no light shone in here from the sun.
Only by our own selves we may be out done.

Two people have broken their friendship ties because of either a disagreement or he or she has found out that his/her boyfriend/girlfriend had an affair with his or her best friend of one too many years. This type of betrayal has taken its toll on all people since day one. It seems that this friendship wasn't enough for him or her, especially when this guy chose this girl over her best friend and this girl has chosen this guy over his best friend. Why these people aren't best of friends anymore is because for one, his girlfriend or her boyfriend cheated on him or her with his or her best friend and for two, they've gotten themselves in a lot of compromised situations. It breaks the hearts of every human being just thinking about it. He or she, of all people, should know that they've been the best of friends since kindergarten and/or elementary school. So now that these people are no longer friends, thereby being "ex-best friends," I guess he or she has no choice but to move on with their lives. These people have broken ties from each other, eventually trying to rebuild them. But even if he or she has betrayed his or her best friend, one should be seriously forgiven for all the misdeeds he or she's done: trying to take his or her girlfriend or boyfriend, leaving him or her hanging, everything. These two people are best friends and they're all they've got. But the sad thing about two people being ex-best friends is that not only are they not talking to each other anymore, they've humiliated each other publicly and personally. So, if that's the way these two people want it and they want to cut off communication with each other, well, then two ex-best friends (guys and girls) have no choice but to wish them the best of luck and hoping that they'd forgive each other in the near future.

Abomination scorn Affection Passion Yearning
Struggle Attempt Cherish Relationship Flame
Taste Tender Inner soul Bloom Bamboozle
HERE IS MY ON THE SPOT CREATION!..enjoy :)
I was a woman scorn
Unknowingly cherished a relationship
where the flame was no longer existent;
where time flew by in the distance and I missed
everything in my life I intended
because I was accepting a me that depended
on him
I made an attempt to bamboozle the truth
and convince myself that he wasn't screwing Kim
Ultimately I faked passion and lustfully feigned for affection
since I'd been betrayed
So, I got down on my knees and I prayed
I began yearning for knowledge of my Inner soul
I began to taste freedom and feel whole
The healing began and my consciousness rose - fresh bloom
It was no longer a struggle to end an abomination that would
prove to be a path of doom

My Wishes are Simple
My wishes are simple,
my desires few,
to gaze upon an ocean,
and marvel at a solitary drop of dew.
My wishes are simple,
my dreams not too grand,
to feel the waves teasing my tired feet,
with no footprints left in the cool, wet sand.
My wishes are simple,
my thoughts serenely gentle, calm,
my heart resting beneath a swaying palm,
healing my being, caressed by nature's soothing balm.

Dam girl when Im locked up you set me free/
When Im not myself you set me free/
Im behind the lock and you got the key/
Im blind with hate but you helpmy love see/
WhenIm lot and alone you take the lead/
Without you I could have never planted my seed/
I hate to say it but you make me better/
You know I love you even without this letter/
When Im cold with sadness you my comfort warm sweater/
I know I can be a bad boyfriend but Im going to be a better father/
I might have wanted a son, but it really didnt matter because now you having my daughter/
Im guess Im too stubborn girl with me why you even bother/
my heart gets heart gets colder but for you it only gets hotter........
In the beginning I started off as just another nobody from another nowhere trying make it to somewhere as a somebody as everyone else. In the beginning I was BORN TO LIVE TO DIE, but in the process I was BRED TO LEARN TO SURVIVE. I became a CONVICT OF CHRIST through PAINFUL PLEASURES of my many struggles and strife's. I was a SINFUL SAINT but more of a sinner, mainly a loser and never a winner. I was once considered one of the best, now days I'm just trying to be lower than the rest, unseen in plain sight , NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS. I became lost in time through my many self-taught TRUE LIES of yet another LOST FIND growing up where few DREAMS LIVE , but many more DREAMS DIE. I soon got LOCKED UP but it was very educational because I LIVED IT and LEARNED FROM IT. I was given a choice to LIVE FREE OR DIE INCARCERATED, so I made that choice to be more loved than hated, so I became UNDER LOVE and OVER HATE, I learned to stop wanting and actually appreciate. Its been hard to change so I became a POET OF PAIN. That's when I learned the truth about those who think their dying for something but they might as well be living for nothing, because I learned that real truth comes from LIVING FOR SOMETHING because I ain't DYING FOR NOTHING. So now I am forever a W.O.L.F. once a warrior of lost freedom now trying to stay a warrior of lasting freedom you know what I mean.
Random Free Write:
Just flowing - writing
and not stopping to think
or even to lift my pen
I kept going and the words seemed to have no end
Understanding that the process is a simple one
Love everyone and
stear free of the wicked one
I'm not sure if it was winter or spring
But, I gave way to all the flaws and imperfections
and realized that this is me
The change came when I saw fit
and not when someone else decides
It's not hard to forgive
And even easier to forget
Does that not reflect love and also what it begets?
Except too many hold grudges and even
pretend to be angry beyond whats necessary
Caught up in someone elses problem
and not dealing with their own is a hard burden to carry
Let it go
stop negativity where it begins
Cut people short if you have to
because this is your life you have to live
Be on the lookout for those looking to devour you
Pray for those who do ill sh@! to you
Respond in a way that makes them realize they love you
and hope it inspires change
Still maintain dignity and move on to something new
Growing, building up treasures for a place greater than
you can even dream to go
It's the simple things that help make life flow
I could go on and on with this practice flow
Writing and stoping to think or lift my pen
This is one of those poems that didn't make it to the waste bin.

To get someone to read my poems… Contests there must be.
They must be bleeping nuts thinking I can follow all those cockeyed rules.
Out of a zillion types of poems they always pick the weirdest ones.
Allowed only 16 lines… I found I stopped at ninety-one.
And for a topic they want a bird throwing glitter from a tree.
How about I spank them as I put them across my knee!!!
And why must I name it… as they told me? Where's that for creativity?
Then they want a special comment added in the poem…
I would rather not add plagiarism… I'd rather call it my own.
But, you know, I am so very needy that I'll do whatever they want.
Well… I'll do, maybe one or two… of the things they want.
I know this makes it harder to judge the poems that are found therein.
But to me a poem… is a funny bent on my crazy whim.
Then suddenly, Lord Have Mercy… my poem didn't win.
But I'm happy as punch for even with their strained smile…
I'm sure they read one of my poems yet again. :)
(Meant only for fun) I'm not really complaining. Just having fun.

Our family tree will never stop growing…our faith and comfort will never crumble
Love grows here…so have no fear—God is near
My family, though packed up with pride and low self-esteem, still appears humble
Mirth produces joy and our hope gives birth to cheer
God is our Father; who could play this role as skillfully? Who, other than God, created the world so genuinely?
Love comes from He…so scare away the anxiety—God will grant us ecstasy
My family, though packed up with hope and despair, cherishes my soul with glee
Rebirth and life comes from He and our faith should draw near to thee
"i love you sweet boy..we will have fun this summer and be a close and godly family..nighty nit my light"
This summer, I am positive that we will be a close and godly family
But we must be lights of the world…and we must be willing to finish that race of hardships to earn His dignity
By all means, we will have an enjoyable break without paying a fee
But we must be God's faithful followers…and we must be prepared to follow our Shepherd who is the key
Of never-ending faith and comfort, nourishing us abundantly
He still exists…He unravels the insanity
Of this world and set us free from blasphemy
Watching over us with pure vitality
Give us Your water
Don't leave us in the gutter
Listen to the words we mutter
I pray that our family tree will look up to you devotedly

Yeah I'm back on that same road once more,
Struggling like litterally I see our very children eating off the dirt floor'
Who can really give a **** about dollars because where Im from over ninety percent living dirt poor,
Even down here the struggle remains the same,
Alcohol remains top dog around here it wont change,
We want something different yet we keep seeking just a little more money, just a little fame,
We aint happy with what we got now so we let the bull *****get to the brain.......
Its sad how our people let even ourselves be lowered to ask for pocket change,
We dying fast, no not our people but our culture cant you see the blood stains?
Cant you see the youth playing games, six feet deep is where many of our very own youth sleep, forever trapped in their death beds still laying,
I just hope I am remebered strong when Im gone confused why sometimes I wont stop praying...........but its alright though because Im back on that road again lost without family or friends......I dont know where to stop but I know where it begins........there's a meaning to everything in the start on this road so lets make this a memorable End......
You dont need no friends
all they will do is hurt you
let them all go, why hold them up?
the family are so far behind,
they will never understand
we are so alone, in this life,
women want what you can give
i wont trade money for sex
or even a bit of attention
or a commitment of ownership
a culture of prostitution...
The poor people steal from you
the rich will rape you
not selling my rear for interest..
and the middle are just stupid
addicted to the drugs, the propaganda
I am the artist, the expressionist, the prophet,
alone, with one mission,
where are my pleasures?
cursed to teach this selfish culture
pathetic humans, suffering
too stupid to give anything
complaining, whining, frustrated,
They are about to destroy themselves
a collective suicide of selfishness
The other immortals tell me to have hope,
to love them, to teach them,
They arent my friends, so busy
teaching, and giving to the vampires.
The christians love war and murder of others
They worship, punishment, hatred, and money
the buddhists wont stand up for themselves and fight,
the middle road is lost.
The muslims are too busy oppressing women
and praying for heaven
The jews know nothing of love, only greed
They tell me i should feel special
i have so much to teach and give,
Jesus taught them forgiveness
helping the poor, loving all people
they crucified him!
The afterlife is so wonderful, they say,
if you teach love and forgiveness.
I am in this life now,
and all i find is tricksters, liers and decievers
I am tired of being alone,
The body is male, and only half of itself.
addiction to female energy
no control, clairvoyance gone
the suicidal idiots have something right
I am cursed to sit here and learn compassion,
patience, how to inspire them
teach them to love, and give to others,
all in the hope that they wont destroy themselves
Why cant i give up on hope?
they are pathetic, i am tired,
of the abuse, and anger, i evoke.
They hate me, unless i pretend,
smile the big smile,
and pat them on their back for selfishness.
They love you then,
I do not worship their god, of self-worship.
I wish i could, maybe i would be rich.
living off of the blood, sweat and tears of others
how nice that would be, to relax, no responsibilty
to give or love anyone except my family.
I am sure i will feel better tomorrow

Just breathe in the clarity
Clarity of the whole
Whole or negativity
Negativity eating your soul
Head for tomorrow
Tomorrow always waits
Waits for enlightenment
Enlightenment heals mistakes
You are where you've put yourself
Your "SELF" now reminds you of shame
Shame brought on by acting out thoughts
Thoughts a conscious shouldn't retain
Give yourself an apology
An Apology you deserve to have
Have some faith in your timing
Timing bleeds wisdom in man
Bless your self and live righteous
Righteous spirits rise above
Above all if you are kind
Kind souls conquer hate with love
Poetry brings torment to a halt
Halt all your never-ending thoughts
Thoughts are forbidden evil hiding
Hiding light inside divine spots
So please write down your own deep thoughts
Thoughts penned will conquer your inside trap
Trap your life up in your cell all alone
Alone you shall stay smelling your crap~
please don't be offended by the last line~
I felt it was necessary to get my point across~

A child is born
all loving, forgiving, honest,
a special child of the light,
eyes wide open, awake,
the wolves are happy,
to feast at the table of its suffering.
Feed it just enough love to survive,
milk it of its light, little by little
suckling its love, its forgiveness,
a sweet delicacy for a vampiric world.
The child becomes a young adult...
control, conformity, submission,
overwhelming expectations,
no freedom, no love, no peace,
a barrage of others suffering,
cant get it off me, out of my head!
out of my heart, it hurts!
Its all too much!
Why do they all hurt me?
Why are they not honest like me?
How can they be so mean to me?
What is wrong with me?
I just want a taste of love,
to remind me why I am alive!!

Yeah they called him Tiny Tim....so dam tiny he fitted through the basketball rim
everytime they were out yeah he was hiding in
yeah, while they were out he was holding back from enjoyin the young life of sin
but he cared little none for the drugz, the liquor or the shiny gin
all he wanted was someone to care, someone to show him atleast a grin
He was soo dam small people started calling him Nemo without the broken smaller fin
while his peers were out making dough off dope he was out collecting cans of tin
Light shone upon others dreams while upon his hopes the light remained dim
He was hated on because the size and weight of his body, not the color of his skin
half breed yeah he was as he played ball they laughed at how he came to their chin
he was just a young boy living in a world of hateful men
But he cared not cuz he would get the **** back up and try again
they told him he would never BE
that he would never succeed
he would never be apart of something or anything
but with a stroke of luck he doing something
no more hiding and no more ****ing running
People see his attitude and life now aint it stunning
His life shooting off cant you see Tiny Tim with a Bazooka Gunning
But now He living for something and dying for nothing
he made it through high school while most his haters were frontin
staying in school payed off now his life career is out on sidewalks jumping
while he sees his past peers life out in the ghetto life with drugs and alcohol dumping
He was gone for a minute lockdown but make way TINY TIM IS COMING

The monster became a living, walking nightmare
my dive into insanity, no longer perfect, containing a blank stare
I should resist, the monster will find me, run away with me
Pretend to hear my meager complaints, force me to see what I'm afraid to see
Blame and guilt, volleying right and left, up and down
It's crashing me closer, with every step, I'm falling to the ground
It's all a game, just play along, play the game, play it well
Brimming confidence, dissolved in thoughts, of what? I won't tell
Demons, devil born souls, run quick, run fast, stand my ground
No sense of fear, n sense of foreboding, not even a slight sound
High speed, pursuit of hell, bent on going, bent on crashing
Giving into the power, life's faster, lights flashing
Crash and torment me again, my eyes close after all
The beginning of the end for me, feeling numb after the fall
Is there a way out? I'm different, distant and moved on
Listen to the water, calling, coaxing into death, I'm gone
Endless, empty cloud; dreamless oblivion; oxygen, exhalation
Am I dead? Still alive? Broken into pieces, I need motivation
Reality closes in, walls me in; until there's nothing there
Death comes behind me, containing a blank stare.

I interpret what I see
hoping that it's on target
you hope it's what is accepted
or is it?
I read you and then you disappear
no answer
oh dear...did I cross the line?
quickly I try to amend my words with more words
have to be heard...when reading was the culprit
or was it?
oh the written word...(sigh)
IMs become obselete since there's no one
to answer to...
so I write to plead my case
hoping to propitiate the soul
that may have been hurt.
But then again...
did I misinterpret the no answer?

An epiphany is actually a Christian holiday that takes place on the 6th of January every year. An epiphany is also a sudden realization of greater truth. It seems that after he or she had said some hateful remarks about each other or whatever, he or she finally has an epiphany; people should accept some changes in their lives. Epiphany is used different ways, especially when it comes to being a Christian holiday, even after Christmas. The only way for people to each have an epiphany is to end their selfish and hateful ways. And the fact that day in and day out, even if these people are moving on with their lives, they should do the same. Some people, like Albert Einstein, were using the word "epiphany" as a scientific term, but it's used to end all types of selfishness and a lot of arrogance. No wonder why epiphany has affected the lives of every human being on planet earth. and just like I said, the only way to end this selfishness is to have an epiphany. The only reason why he/she shouldn't care about him/herself anymore is because other people are as important as he or she is. Without multiple people in their lives, he or she is nothing. He or she must put all negative thoughts aside in order to save themselves from reliving a lot of painful memories. Everybody knows that God wanted the entire human race to get along well. Right now, I wish every human being on the planet each have an epiphany and were to stop being self-centered and start thinking about others besides themselves. Unless he or she each has an epiphany and until he or she ends his or her selfish ways, he or she will likely spend the remainder of his or her days alone.
Wordless and pitiful, this fool can't deny
The emptiness hollowed out deep in my mind
Nothing will redeem these broken thoughts
And nothingness is all I have, I'm so damn lost
I can't remember how to sleep anymore
I can not recall the taste of oxygen or law
Only the blood that was spilled from my mouth
As I choked upon the words that threw me down
How am I still living without my heart?
How is it that I can stand when I fell apart?
Truth is that I am gone, deep in the dirt
A place where I can not think; where I'm safe from hurt
I can't recall a way to speak anything
That does not remind me of every single thing
The dry blood across my skin will not be washed away
And whatever else I try to hide has stained all I say
Collapsing into a mess upon the kitchen floor
Fearing to even walk out of my bedroom door
The sun burns away every place I can cry
And the moon delivers another thousand lies
How can I ever hope to breathe and sleep again
When every single breath I take turns dreams into pain?
The stains of blood are punishment for all that I said
And nothingness has carved your face deep within my head
Wordless and pitiful, the things I will write
The deepening eternity of every lonely night
The broken thoughts accompany a song that always plays
I've lost you forever, but this music will remain

I beg for your forbearance
For I have disregarded my faith towards You
I beg for your healing in advance
For I have disclaimed Your protection and now I'm blue
Do you notice that I'm blanketed in deep distress?
My pillow is soaked externally with unsettling tears
My good memories that bestowed hopefulness
Has been meddled with for years
Has been mistreated and replaced by insecure dreadfulness
I need shelter from the tide of despairs and fears
I'm shattered and I'm seeking Your helping hand
Receive my hushed prayer…from your throne in heaven
I'm begging for Your contentment that's beyond grand
Receive my muffled prayer… or I'll be stuck in this tarnished den
Do you notice that I'm spinning mad in the rivers of mystifying visions?
My unwavering boat sinks drastically with damaged gears
My bad memories that departed from my missions
Has been discarding the carefree years
Has been neglected and torn apart by dishonorable decisions
I need Your love to embrace me with jubilation and cheers
I beseech for Your mercy
For I have abused my steadfast hope towards You
I look forward to Your infinite Kingdom favorably
For I have admired Your blessings and now my dreams come true!
In Jesus's name,
Walking away might be the most hardest things for a man to do,
you cant even imagine what that feeling can do to you.
Falling flat on your face would be better than to look shameful,
even walking around naked around the streets would be cool.
But like any story in life goes, there is always that one person that will help you get back on your feet and walk again.
No matter how much you fall, no matter how much you stumble upon a struggle, that person will be there with you till the end.
Give love and thanks to this person who never leaves your side and helps you put a smile on your face everyday.
When the day comes to an end and you know that the person has to go, all you can wish is for your special person to stay.
Mine has walked away on me,
I was so blind that i couldn't see.
She wanted everything for her self, for me to change and be what she wanted me to be,
but i had to let her go and never see this person again, cause it would only be worse in the end.
Writing this is more painful than getting your body tattooed,
writing this is more painful than getting over screwed.
Writing this is more painful than words,
writing this is more painful than razor sharp swords.
No matter how much you try to let it out it just wouldn't come out,
the pain is way to deep and its almost like its tattooed on your bodies gout.
haven't i been hurt enough in this world, i just don't understand why i am being treated like this,
is it cause i am better than you and have nothing to look forward too but my blue and black handkerchief?
The cut was way to deep my dear, you just cant imagine,
i have been cut and bruised for the last time, i can promise you that.
No one will ever touch this body or hurt this soul ever again,
if you wish to try so, go ahead and check it, but before that go ahead and get yourself a casket.

This is the man that I am
No need for a detective because I have few mysteries
Whatever you don't find its trapped somewhere inside my mind
I put my life into words for the whole world to read
I hope you enjoy what you see
A South Korean English teacher by night
An avid writer by day
A helpless romantic somewhere in between
The smile and joy from my students is priceless
Seeing someone enjoy my writings is pretty rewarding as well
I feel that everything in my life is finally going well
From my writings you may find that hard to tell
Sorry I don't write more fantasies or fables
To convey happy emotions and attract more followers
You are getting my life through my eyes
I don't have a sweet tooth so I don't sugarcoat things
I write what I have seen and how it has effected me
My adventures and journeys have been vast
Come with me on this ride
Together we can both be pleasantly surprised
With what I will write
This is the the man that I am

iPad Success not the Fruit of Apple's Labor
And why Apple owes everything to developers
The Apple iPad has been out for about a month and I have been a user of a 16GB Wi-Fi model since day one. It has quickly become a near daily addition to my workflow as I utilize it for taking notes throughout the home and office, watching TV via the SlingPlayer application (among others), checking email away from the desktop and even to waste time with a quick round of Plants versus Zombies. I would not call it critical to the success of PC Perspective yet, but I can see it reaching that point with a few changes.
I think it goes without saying that the iPad is a success but after having numerous discussions with friends, colleagues and even other pundits on the TWiT network, I think I have to dispute how much of the success of the iPad is the result of Apple. In fact, I believe that the iPad is a success despite of Apple, not because of it.
Keep in mind that this argument is being made based on the product itself, the hardware and software engineering behind it, not the Apple created and sustained hysteria and fan base that will buy anything because of the logo on it. As a tech journalist, I think it is important to separate these facets of the product and once we do this, we can better judge the merits of the device.
Let's take a look at what Apple is actually responsible for on the iPad; what components of the shipping product were created by Apple. The most obvious point here is the hardware of the unit itself. Not many will be able to honestly say the device isn't sexy, at least when it comes to judging the attractiveness of consumer electronic devices. The flat glass screen, silver backing and polished design definitely give the iPad the style necessary to make it a fashionable accessory. Apple is also technically responsible for the hardware powering the iPad. After purchasing PA Semi we assumed that Apple would be designing its own processors for use in these types of mobile devices so it was no surprise to find Apple had created and branded the Apple A4 CPU inside the iPad. While much of the CPU is still a mystery, it and the complimentary graphics hardware seem more than capable of pushing the pixels and processing necessary for the 1024x768 display.
That leads me to another aspect of the hardware that is impressive: the screen. It is crystal clear and bright and even though many of us were let down to find that Apple went with a 4:3 ratio device rather than a widescreen-ready 16:9 it is hard to find fault in the display. Apple is able to keep it on and running for an incredible amount of time as well: the battery life of the iPad has impressed basically everyone that has used it. Apple claims that the iPad gets about 10 hours of use time with a single full charge and that has easily been met according to my and most other reviewer's reports. When not under constant activity it is easy to go several days to a week without needing to plug in your iPad – a definite improvement over standard notebook computers.
And don't forget the instant-on factor here: even when the iPad has been off for a while a user can pick it up, hit one of the buttons, slide to unlock and begin accessing an application in about a second.
There are some hardware issues that some people feel were left out including any sort of rear-facing or front-facing camera and the lack of some kind of connectivity option like integrated USB or the ability to easily access and transfer non-music files. But overall, I think the hardware of the iPad is pretty competent.
Now let's discuss software: specifically what software Apple brought to the iPad. First, there is the operating system itself, currently up to 3.x. While the OS seems capable for single applications it still lacks the ability to do multi-tasking and even with the upcoming iPhone OS 4.0 update the multi-tasking features are pretty limited. Some pundits will argue that multi-tasking isn't needed or would be detrimental to the user base but I couldn't disagree more; even doing something simple like copying a URL to share with another application require closing and restarting those two apps. I also think that it is a shame that with a big beautiful screen like the iPad has that the entirety of the real estate is often wasted by applications that have no choice but to fill the whole display. It's workable but is in no way an ideal situation.
Next, let's talk about the keyboard that, as Steve Jobs put it, is "a dream to type on." Sorry Stevey, that software touchscreen keyboard is far from a dream to type on and writing anything more than a few sentences at one time is a hassle and just isn't worth it. Yes, Apple sells a word processing application for the iPad yet also sells external keyboard adapters. Obviously if the on-screen keyboard was such a "dream" that wouldn't be necessary and nothing kills the mobility of your new iPad like having to pack a keyboard with an angled plastic mount on it.
There is also the issue of the various Apple-built applications that come on the iPad: Notes, Calendar, Contacts, Mail and even iBooks. NONE of these programs is worth a damn and border on being really, really bad. Have you tried to use the Calendar application? Not only does it have one of the poorest uses of a touchscreen user interface but it is also unattractive and doesn't fit in with ANY other Apple programs. The Notes application doesn't have any innovative features and uses red pencil circle animations to "spice things up." Have you used the Mail application on the iPhone? Yah, nothing has changed there and the lack of unified inboxes and only being able to store 200 messages (for me barely over a day) locally are just the first complaints. Even the iBooks program, for as innovative as Apple pretends to be with its e-book plan, is all about fancy animations and not much else.
There are some good programs that Apple has written, including the Safari app. But again, nothing has changed from the experience a user gets on the iPhone other than it being at a higher resolution. Yes, bigger is better, but despite Steve Job's claims it probably isn't the best browsing experience available. Without getting into the whole Apple/Flash debate, let's just agree that having Flash support on the iPad would improve the overall user experience if it were done well. The tabs remain a hindrance as much as a help since often times reverting back to another tab still requires a refresh of the page taking time and relevancy away from the browser.
The iPod and iTunes applications are still very good and were modified just enough to take advantage of the larger screen real estate the iPad provided.
But none of these programs are really what make the iPad so exciting and enticing to new users; it's all third party applications. When you talk to a person that is excited about the iPad what do you hear? "Check out the streaming Netflix!" "Have you watched Modern Family on the ABC Player?" "Look at how awesome the comics are on the Marvel app!" These applications, as well as others like the various Twitter applications, the Kindle app, Plants versus Zombies and Starwalk are what make the iPad so amazing.
What do all of these programs have in common? None of them were developed by Apple. And my stance is that all of these programs could have been written and distributed for another touchscreen based tablet devices. Yes, even one of the numerous Windows-based ones.
Look at it - this is really nothing more than a slightly optimized version of the Netflix website
Think about it honestly if you will – is there anything that the applications that run on the iPad do that they couldn't also do on Windows? Kindle, Netflix, ABC Player, Marvel Comics, Plants versus Zombies, Starwalk, Magic Piano, etc. These programs and numerous others that users love on the iPad could have been published on the Windows (or other) platform had there been the initiative to do so and if Microsoft had been able to convince developers to change their way of thinking about touchscreen applications. The programs that ran on Windows needed an interface switch that developers seemed unable to do without insistence. Insistence that they apparently got from Apple.
In a different world, with some other people running and setting the direction of the tablet division at Microsoft, it is not only entirely possible, but very likely, that the innovative applications that we are seeing today on mobile phones and the iPad would have been on machines like the Lenovo X201 or ASUS Eee PC T91. And maybe they still will be now that software developers recognize that simply adding a touchscreen to a basic Windows program won't do the trick.
Magic Piano is fun but nothing about it is specific to the iPad.
No one can argue that Microsoft's Windows operating system revolutionized the computer era for the better but few will give Microsoft the same credit they give to Apple. How many times have you heard pundits and media compliment Windows for creating the environment that allowed applications like the Steam gaming platform, various office and database tools and off-site Internet backup services to exist and thrive? Not often – instead we hear about the negatives and drawbacks to the OS. Apple has really done nothing different by creating a platform that facilitates applications and creativity and yet they get much more of the good will than they deserve.
Apple is the beneficiary of a robust developer group that was nurtured (not by Apple but by quick profits) during the earlier days of the iPhone; the same developer group that Apple sometimes seems to being working against. It really is these applications, and not what Apple is doing with the iPad itself, that truly is making it a revolutionary product. Does Apple deserve some of the credit for the push to user friendly touch applications? Definitely. But as I demonstrated above, Apple's own applications aren't even close to the best iPhone/iPad offerings telling us once again that truly is developers, developers, developers.
There are numerous questions that need to be considered after this type of discussion including why developers didn't also flock to Android and if there remains an opening for Android-based tablets to improve and differentiate. I think the answer to the first question can be summed up to cash – developers went where the money was early on in the app game and with the much larger install base the iPhone/iPad developers were able to rake in the revenue and have since stuck around. As for the second question I think the door is wide open should Google and its partners or even the new HP/Palm combo jump in with full force. The world, and millions of tech enthusiasts, is waiting.
We have a comment thread going in our PC Perspective Forums; drop in if you have any thoughts or comments for the author or other readers.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

All quotes by Craig Cook
(6 quotes found)
"The snow issue isn't as a big a problem in April (as early December). People tend to forego some of these (late spring) values mainly because the sun is coming out and they've started thinking about golfing (and other warm-weather activities)."
"People think they need to be at a ski-in/ski-out resort, but the reality is it's not such a big deal to jump on a shuttle."
"You have to make sure you are comparing apples to apples. A lot of times, people don't do that -- but the properties could be really different, the lift tickets might cover different areas, and the shuttle service might not be as good."
"We've seen a definite increase in clients who just enjoy being in snow country. They've discovered that a resort vacation in the mountains offers a lot of things and that air travel is often a lot cheaper in winter than in summer."
"Depression set in and I would break down and realize that I'm in a wheelchair, and I can't be doing the things I used to do."

Good Points
Excellent accuracy
Excellent power for it's classic design
Rekord Trigger - enough said on that
Bad Points
None - Some say weight but actually it shoots better than lighter rifles
General Comments
The Weihrauch HW35 rifle is a classic. It's been the genesis of modern magnum springers. It's bbl latch is a great design.
I bought a 30 year old one in rough shape. After a new JM spring, guide and seal and proper lubrication, this thing came back to life!! I prefer it to my R1
Yes, there are better modern springers but this review is not a comparison to those, it's an evaluation on a classic springer

BOUNTIFUL — Piles of snow several inches deep in the streets, sidewalks and park strips of Davis County are making it difficult for letter carriers to deliver mail.
Postal authorities in Davis County and throughout Utah are reminding customers that they are responsible for providing an accessible path to mailboxes.
"Winter storms make mail delivery very challenging for our letter carriers," USPS District Manager Ken McArthur said in a press release on Friday. "Clearing a path to your mailbox will go a long way toward keeping our letter carriers safe and ensuring mail delivery each day."
Postal customers who receive door mail delivery should clear their sidewalks, steps, and access ways of all ice and snow, according to the press release. Customers with street-side mailboxes or centralized cluster neighborhood mailbox delivery should also pay special attention to having a safe and clear pathway to their mailbox.
Letter carriers will continue to do their best to deliver the mail, McArthur said, but when mailboxes and approaches to mailboxes are buried in snow and ice it can be too difficult to safely deliver mail.
If mailboxes are blocked and conditions are too difficult, letter carriers must consider safety and accessibility first. They are instructed to refrain from delivering too locations they deem too hazardous.
If you have not received your mail, call or visit the post office nearest you.

WACO, Texas, Nov. 22 (UPI) -- A judge in Waco, Texas, has sentenced a former Baylor basketball player to 18 months in prison for attempted extortion against quarterback Robert Griffin III.
U.S. District Judge Walter S. Smith Jr. sentenced Richard Khamir Hurd for trying to extort $1 million from Griffin, a Heisman Trophy winner who played football at Baylor before being drafted into the NFL by Washington.
Hurd, 26, pleaded guilty in September to extortion and receiving money from extortion.
Hurd, who was fined $1,000, will be permitted to surrender once it is determined where he will serve his sentence, the Waco Tribune-Herald reported. His attorney asked the judge to recommend a facility close to Houston, Hurd's hometown.
At his sentencing hearing, Hurd apologized and told Smith he knew he "messed up" and had done "something really stupid."
As he left the courthouse Wednesday, Hurd smiled and said: "Happy Thanksgiving, Sic 'em, Bears, and anything else cliche that I can throw out."
Federal court records indicate Hurd -- who played basketball for four years at Baylor -- contacted Griffin's agent and threatened to make public information that would be damaging to Griffin.

As you may recall, with clenched jaw and trembling fingers we typed away a post last week counterpunching Charles Ferruzza's Fat City jab the Waid's. Well, with the dust settled and the benefit of a few days of reflection, we're ready to make up. Mostly because Ferruzza's Fat City colleague Jonathan Bender published a love letter to Bloomsbury Bistro and its proprietor, Cari Jo Cavalcante.
With a location tucked away in the Mission Road Antique Mall, a number of people didn't give Cavalcante or the restaurant much hope. But more than ten years later, the restaurant's gained a loyal following.
"When I was getting ready to open, one of my instructors from JCCC looked at me and looked at this place. He said, 'Well, you're not going to make it. I wish you the best, but this is a bad location.' And yet, it's turned out so great," Cavalcante told Bender.
See the whole story here.
