Diamond Peak
May 31, 2008
It was a big snow year for the cascade mountains (what use to be considered normal) It has been difficult to visit the peaks in mid spring. I rescheduled the climb three weeks later than initially planned to facilitate an easier approach and climb.
The climb had as many as twelve people signed on, then on the day of the climb it dwindled down to seven participants. We met at the Albertsons on 58th and main and popped over the hill to hwy 58 on are way to the wilderness. We experienced heavy rain along hills creek lake then arrived in sunshine at the trail head at pioneer gulch.
We shared the trailhead with two groups of telemark skiers intent on linking turns in the bowls. We non skiers headed on up to the southwest ridge through hemlock and fir forest to open vistas of Diamond peak as we began to ascend to treeline.
We kept a pretty brisk pace once we were out on the open slope. It turned into a torrid pace once I let the twenty somethings get out ahead. I gave the guys a minute and a half head start, then I went off after them. they said they had already been waiting ten minutes by the time I caught them. I developed cramps chasing those darn kids.
The weather on top of the mountain went from awesome to awful in a minute We summited in a white out with the rumble of thunder not far off. Are group hung around for the obligatory pics and briskly headed back down. The view into the east bowl was fleeting but gorgeous. The Diamond peak wilderness is still slumbering in winters white blanket. Meanwhile we were keeping a weary eye on the storm that was casting a dark sheet of rain over Maiden peak and Davis lake.
We had taken advantage of the steep slope and did some glissading down the ridge until we reached the trees (what a hoot!) Once in the forest it's all about which way did we come into these darn woods and will we find are way out, hmmm.
The participants for this fun outing were Brian Hamilton and Mark Slipp, both fearless assistants, Larry Huff trip leader, and fellow Obsidians Marianne Camp and Steve Kuhn. The eager non members were Ajah Boise and Shawn Grover.

If you've read the VGA output-specific remarks in my Web Browsing and PDF Reader bibles (more specifically: the dedicated row in the charts), you may remember I've complained about all(!) of the VGA output-enabled titles not producing high-resolution output on Retina display-equipped 4th generation iPhone and iPod Touch models.
As I've been updating my official iOS Programming course with everything dedicated to programming the VGA output, I've decided to find out what the problem is caused by.
Fortunately, it was very easy to find out the bug, particularly because I knew from the beginning it must be caused by the different scaling of the Retina display-based devices from the iPad. (The VGA output work just fine on the iPad with all these programs.)
The fix is simple: instead of using the plain UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext, (assuming you use the traditional way of "blind" bitmap copying to the VGA output – see e.g. THIS for more info on this technique; note that my solution is way simpler, contains far less code and is, therefore, far easier to understand/follow), you will need to use the conditional block explained HERE. It fixes all these problems.
I've even created a very simple program demonstrating all these. It displays a scrollable UITextView full with scrollable text on the internal screen. Note that it must be inside a UIScrollView for the mirroring to work right. (If you leave UIScrollView out, mirroring will only work OK at the top of the document; if you scroll down, the mirrored image will be gradually hidden.)
The UIWindow directly connected to the external screen only has a UIImageView inside. (There's no need to use any View Controllers unless you want to support display rotation.) It's this image view that we just copy the bitmap contents of the internal screen's document layer four times a second.
Try commenting out the conditional block setting the scaling and using the plain old UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext (it's commented out by default) instead – you'll see the output becomes blurry on a 4th generation high-resolution device.
Two screenshots showing the output in the simulator (where you can also debug VGA output; see Hardware > TV Out):
the buggy version (look for the blurry characters in the VGA output emulation window!)
the fixed version (the default)
BTW, I've just spoken to the developer of iCab, the best Web browser on iOS; he's told me this will be fixed in the next version.
The source code archive for the entire project is HERE.

Greatest Comedy Films of All Time
What are the best comedy movies? Almost all movies have some comical element in them and on a large scale every second film is a comedy film. Either be it Action comedy or Romantic Comedy or even Horror comedy. So it makes hard to pick up the greatest comedy films of all time. Comedy genre could be traced back to silent era (in the 1920s). People were big fan of Charlie Chaplin and Laurel and Hardy style of comedy movies. The 1940s and 1950s saw many hit screwball comedies along with War comedies and satirical comedies. The 1960s and 1970s gave birth to spy comedies,Star packed comedies and Black comedy movies. 1980s is known as the best decade for Teen comedies and Romantic comedy films. 1990s continued the success of romantic comedies along with buddy comedy movies and dark comedy films. The decade of 2000s saw a rise in horror comedies along with st0ner comedies and $ex comedies. However, the 2000s also saw a fall in family comedy movies.
The best comedy movies are surely those that gave funny moments on every scene of the film and made it impossible for a person to hold laughter. But with time comedy has found new taste and new style of humor. Comedy has a huge range, ranging from Slapstick comedy, comedy of manners, comedy of errors to situational comedy, parody and satirical comedy to black comedy. We tried to include the best of almost all type of comedies in this list.
Here is the list of 100 funniest comedy films of all time (This list is updated regularly so you will find the most recent comedy movies too) :
100. We're The Millers
99. Harold and Kumar Series
98. Euro Trip
97. Liar Liar
96. This Is Spinal Tap

Walker's Twitter account down
Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker's Twitter account is down. The Walker campaign believes political opponents reported the account as spam:
"This afternoon, our Twitter account was the victim of attack from opponents of our movement. We comply with the Terms of Service for Twitter and are working to rectify the situation. In the meantime, keep up with our campaign by following our Facebook Fan Page," the campaign page says.
Jill Bader, communications director for Walker's campaign, confirmed that the Walker camp believes political opponents reported Walker's tweets as spam, prompting Twitter to shut down the account, at least temporarily.
Some bloggers and people on Twitter have speculated that Walker's account might have broken Twitter rules and tried to get the attention of potential followers by following their Twitter accounts and un-following them repeatedly. Some Twitter users do that to gain new followers.
Bader says Walker's campaign hasn't done that.
Unfortunately the only deterrence for such a prank is to ban the prankster permanently. That's not likely to happen, even if that was Twitter's intent, because of how easy it is to register a Twitter account.

Web hosting provider Hostway announced on Tuesday that it has released its FlexCloud API for potential resellers of Hyper-V cloud services as well as for organizations that want to connect Microsoft Hyper-V private clouds with a public cloud. The API is apparently the first one to support Hyper-V deployments.
According to the press release, the new API is compatible with OpenStack and is available immediately to enterprises and resellers using Hostway's FlexCloud server. Hostway introduced its Hyper-V based hybrid cloud offering in February.
This announcement comes a day after Hostway announced that it would offer its customers the Websplanet website builder.
The FlexCloud API helps eliminate vendor lock-in concerns that can arise as a result of the proprietary APIs offered by some hosting providers, Hostway says. It enables Hyper-V virtual management across multiple cloud environments and allows partners and resellers to build their services upon a cost-effective cloud platform, according to the press release.
Hostway customers can use the API to automate server provisioning, auto-scale servers up and down based on set performance controls, and integrate services on an enterprise-class cloud.
Companies that have Hyper-V installed on their internal Windows Server environments can instantly connect to one of Hostway's geographically dispersed public clouds to help meet bursting, failover and compliance.
Hostway resellers can bundle the API with their offerings to drive new revenue streams and automate the server provisioning process.
"The lack of integrated cloud management on a cost-effective, enterprise-class cloud has hampered our efforts to capitalize on the growing cloud marketplace," Ryan Sumner, director of technology at Cynch Inc., which resells Hostway's hosting services, said in a statement. "With Hostway's new API, we can offer full management and support and reduce vendor lock-in concerns for Hyper-V shops and SMBs that want their applications, websites or other resources hosted in the cloud without requiring them to move to a costly cloud provider like those running VMware. We expect this to drive substantial cloud revenues for our business."
Hostway says its cloud and hybrid hosting services provide full support for Linux and other operating systems, including a hypervisor-agnostic managed cloud.
Hostway is demonstrating the new FlexCloud API at Booth 131 at the Microsoft Management Summit 2012 conference in Las Vegas.
Talk back: Are you offering Hyper-V cloud solutions? What do you think of Hostway's API? Let us know in the comments.

AN application to stage a loyalist parade in Armagh on the evening of St Patrick's Day has been approved.
It will not overlap with the main St Patrick's parade in the historic city.
The Cormeen Rising Sons of William parade would usually hold its St Patrick's Day march in the village of Killylea, but the organisers have asked to move it to Armagh city because its size has been increasing year on year.
Around 40 bands and up to 1,200 participants are due to take part.
Nationalist politicians have raised objections to the march.

Deafness means a lack or loss of the sense of hearing, which may be partial or complete. Partial loss of hearing is often called hearing loss rather than deafness.
Deafness can occur in one or both ears.
There are three primary types of hearing loss:

Deafness may occur at any age, from birth through old age.
The conditions that can cause or be associated with hearing loss include the following:
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
Risk factors for deafness include:
Hearing loss usually comes on gradually, but may come on suddenly. Symptoms may include:
Symptoms of deafness in infants may be noted at these stages:
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, all children (including newborns) should be screened for hearing loss so that hearing loss occurring before birth can be uniformly detected prior to three months of age.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam. As part of the diagnosis, your doctor may try to determine the following:
Depending on the type of hearing loss you have, the doctor may order tests to confirm your diagnosis. Tests may include:
Treatment for deafness depends on the type of hearing loss. Options may include:
To help prevent deafness, avoid loud noise. In cases when loud noise cannot be avoided, you can reduce exposure to loud noises by wearing earplugs, earmuffs, or ear protectors. Also, taking steps to reduce injuries or disease may prevent certain types of deafness.
There is currently no effective way to prevent congenital or genetic deafness.
Hearing screening for newborns can help insure that hearing loss in young babies is detected and treated at the earliest possible stage.

Hanging PunctuationSubmitted by José Alberto Ma... on 13 March 2013 - 6:30am
In the course of developing a revival of Mergenthaler Linotype's Benedictine (1915-1922), I am considering the possibility of including hanging punctuation marks (quotes, periods, colons, hyphens and the like) in the OpenType implementation. I was thinking of using contextual alternates to substitute punctuation marks at the begining/ending of lines with the corresponding hanging (null-width) marks. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to detect within the "calt" feature a begin/end of line event. Is this possible? Or, more generally, is there any way of implementing mechanically this type of substitutions?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

The developers had money, business leaders and most of the town's elected officials on their side. But last week, the citizens of Berthoud decided to stick with their beleaguered growth cap, rejecting a proposed exemption that would have allowed for massive development of a 4,200-acre parcel of land along the northern I-25 corridor.
A solid 55.7 percent of the town's voters rejected Initiative 200, while 44.3 percent voted in favor of it. The double-digit spread was a sweet victory for supporters of the cap and a stunning defeat for McWhinney Enterprises of Loveland, the developers who'd sponsored the initiative and hoped to master-plan thousands of homes on the I-25 site. The cap, a grassroots initiative that limits residential growth in Berthoud to no more than 5 percent annually, was approved last year -- and has been under assault from developers ever since ("Scenes From a Sprawl," August 9).
"This was a major shock to the other side," says John Meyer, a Berthoud resident who joined growth-cap author Brian Anderson in spearheading the fight against the exemption. "I don't think the McWhinneys were as troubled by it as the town's board of trustees, who spent their own money to try to get this thing through."
Supporters of the exemption outspent the growth cap's defenders in the campaign by a margin of nearly ten to one. The contributors included members of Berthoud's board of trustees, who paid out of their own pockets to distribute a letter endorsing the exemption. (Only one trustee, Jenny Foote, opposed the exemption.) "They didn't just crawl into bed with the McWhinneys; they did a backflip off the headboard," Meyer observes.
But the battle isn't over yet. Next month, a special election will be held to determine if the growth cap should be eliminated entirely. That initiative is being pushed by mortgage broker Lou Gassner, president of the Berthoud Chamber of Commerce, who claims that the growth cap is driving builders and businesses away from bustling Berthoud and into the embrace of neighboring boomtowns.
If the growth cap survives, Troy McWhinney, vice president of development for McWhinney Enterprises, has indicated that he might seek to develop part of the I-25 site in conjunction with another municipality, such as Johnstown. Landowners of one 1,600-acre property at the site have already filed suit in an effort to undo the flagpole annexation that made their land subject to Berthoud's growth restrictions.

"I don't think the voters understood the ramifications of letting the control go to Johns-town," says Berthoud mayor pro-tem Jeff Hindman. "Growth is going to happen there whether Berthoud is in control of it for not."
Meyer says he's not troubled at the prospect of the property going to another township. The McWhinney proposal -- which was recently named to the "Sprawl of Shame" list issued each year by the Colorado Public Interest Research Group -- would have strained town services and added to the area's traffic and sprawl, he contends, while Berthoud's critical need is not rooftops, but retail development for its highway interchange.
"Whoever gets [the property] can have the tax burden," he says. "Let Johnstown be saddled with the expensive residential development, and we'll develop the retail and commercial property next door."
Growth-cap supporters expect to be outspent in next month's election, too. "We're going to have to get creative with fundraising to counter this thing," Meyer says. "But our basic strategy won't change. We're just going to bombard them with facts."

- The sections on creating widgets and panels from scratch (found in Chapters 4 & 5) should be broken out into a separate chapter and presented as an advanced topic. The authors themselves repeatedly state that creating your own widgets and panels should be done as a last resort (favoring Composite widgets instead). If that is the case, they should not risk confusing the reader with this information in Part II.
- Though JSNI (JavaScript Native Interface) is a fundamental feature of GWT, it should have been presented later in the book with the advanced topics, not in Chapter 8. Knowledge of JSNI is important and necessary to grow as a GWT developer, but I don't think beginners will put it to use right off the bat.
- Building AJAX components with the basic RequestBuilder class, which is presented in Chapters 12 & 13, should be introduced earlier than it was (especially considering the book's subtitle is Easy Ajax with Google Web Toolkit). GWT's ability to make AJAX (with JSON and POX) so easy is one of its biggest, and most important, selling points as a JavaScript framework. As such, it's one of the first features newcomers want to learn and play-around with. GWT-RPC, on the other hand, should remain as an advanced topic for later parts of the book.
- The final chapter of the book, Chapter 17, describes how the GWT compilation and application loading process works. This chapter should appear in Part I of the book because it is extremely useful and insightful.
GWT in Action Book Review (2 messages)
GWT in Action is a comprehensive tutorial of the Google Web Toolkit. The book was co-authored by Robert Hanson and Adam Tacy and released in early-2007. Hanson is an industry veteran who started working with GWT immediately after its initial release in mid-2006 and has since contributed a valuable open-source extension to GWT - the GWT Widget Library. You can view Robert's interview about GWT in Action in this TSS Video Tech Brief. Although Google's own GWT documentation is quite handy, it is overly concise and does not thoroughly break down important concepts. The Google documentation acts best as a quick reference guide for those that already have some working experience with GWT. I suspect Google wants developers to take a more hands on approach and learn by diving straight into the numerous source code examples they provide. Though this way of learning can be extremely useful, it can also be very frustrating for beginners/newcomers as they are forced to make assumptions about the underlying concepts and often learn only after trial-and-error. GWT in Action does a great job at filling many of the gaps left by Google's documentation. Not only does GWT in Action teach you the fundamental concepts behind GWT and its API, it also instills best practices and processes for the end-to-end development of GWT applications (from conception, to design, to setup, to implementation, to testing, to deployment). This information alone is invaluable and well worth the price of the book. So, what's not to like about GWT in Action? The book doesn't come without flaws... but that should be expected from the first edition of a book about a technology that is barely a year old. The biggest issue with GWT in Action is its running example - the Widget Dashboard. The Widget Dashboard is analogous to a desktop or window manager in that it manages the display of various GWT Widgets within the visible space of your browser. The Dashboard application itself is pretty cool when you play around with the end-result. However, getting to the end-result is a different story. Though the authors do a great job of showing relevant code snippets from the Dashboard application in the appropriate chapters and sections, I don't think they do a good job of helping the reader seamlessly bring together the Dashboard application from scratch. Even after attentively reading chapter-by-chapter, example-by-example, at the end of the book I had nothing that resembled a complete Dashboard application. To fill in the missing pieces, and get the Dashboard up and running, I had to download the completed source code from the book's web page. If GWT in Action is ever revised, I would prefer to see each section have a stand-alone example relevant to the topic at hand and, alternatively, have the Dashboard presented as a comprehensive example towards the end of the book. Another problem with GWT in Action is its organization. I feel that some information is presented in suboptimal order and may confuse or detract some readers.

Studies show that California's English immersion programs are working. In conducting a study for the Santa Cruz Sentinel, reporter Jondi Gumz analyzed test scores and interviewed teachers in school districts with significantly different approaches to Proposition 227. Students at schools implementing phonics-based English-only instruction and eliminating bilingual classes showed "dramatic" improvement over those who retained bilingual programs. In districts that failed to improve, Gumz found teacher union efforts to undermine the English immersion initiative along with low morale among bilingual teachers. School Reform News (05-00) reported that the Sentinel's findings are consistent with those of other studies. A San Jose Mercury News study, for example, found that 2nd graders learning English in mainstream classrooms averaged at the 35th national percentile on the Stanford 9 test, while bilingual learners averaged in the 20th percentile. A third study by the READ Institute yielded similar results.
Survey shows colleges are accepting more homeschooled students. The National Center for Home Education (NCHE) in Purcellville, VA surveyed 513 colleges and universities in 1998 and 1999 and found that 68% had admissions policies favorable to homeschoolers. Many others were in the process of adjusting their policies. Homeschool-friendly colleges typically require parent transcripts, standardized achievement test results and student portfolios in lieu of high school diplomas. Research shows that nearly 70% of homeschooled students go to college, with about one million expected to pursue a college degree during the next decade.

NameCheap and WordPress are the best companies at protecting customers from baseless copyright and trademark complaints, according to a report released by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) on Monday. Each received five stars, and along with Twitter, were the only companies among the 13 examined to post transparency reports with takedown information.
The report, titled "Who Has Your Back: When Copyright and Trademark Bullies Threaten Free Speech," examines how service providers deal with intellectual property-based takedown requests, expanding on the annual "Who Has Your Back" report, published in May, which details corporate protection of user data privacy.
The report also singles out Etsy for taking the positive step of providing educational guides to its users.
The EFF notes that the lack of transparency reports represents "an information black hole for consumers," and that three companies fail to document a DMCA counter-notice process, which would allow content inappropriately taken down to be restored.
"Major online platforms are essential to online expression, so their policy decisions can have a huge impact on public discourse," EFF Intellectual Property Director Corynne McSherry said. "As users choose which platforms will host their updates, writing, images, and videos, they ought to know which of these services have publicly committed to treating their speech fairly and even helping them fight back against bullies that would try to take it down."
The EFF identifies the absence of statutory safe harbour in trademark law as a key point of division among service providers. Some take the conservative approach of removing all content subject to a trademark dispute, while others require a trademark complaint to meet certain standards or undergo a review process.
The company which comes out a clear loser on the scorecard is tumblr, which is the only company which does not document a trademark dispute process, and managed to get zero stars. The only other company examined to receive less than three stars is imgur.
Intellectual property law is a topic of natural concern for web service providers, as they are not only forced to curate disputed content, but also themselves come under attack from patent trolls, as was the case in a dispute won in September by Rackspace.

" Address: Wiseman's Bridge / Saundersfoot SA69 9AU / Pembrokeshire "
On my recent trip back to the UK I decided to take a camping trip to South Wales. Since I was just 9 months old I have been going on family holidays to Pleasant Valley in Pembrokeshire. While I was young we had a caravan on one of the caravan sites there, however when I was 15 my grandparents decided to sell the caravan as it was no longer getting enough use to make it worth paying the site fees. This left me with the options of not visiting my favourite place, using B&B's or taking up camping. I chose the camping and over the years I have discovered many great campsites in Pleasant Valley and the surrounding areas. The one I will be reviewing today is Wisemans Bridge Campsite.
Wisemans Bridge Campsite is located directly on the coast line in the heart of Pleasant Valley across the road from the beach and local pub, The Wiseman's Bridge Inn which directly over looks the beach. Located within a reasonable distance and easily accessible by both car and public transport are the neighbouring towns of Tenby, Saundersfoot and Amroth.
Arrival at Wisemans Bridge Campsite
From Birmingham it is around 200 miles and takes approximately 4 hours to reach Pleasant Valley. If you come onto the country roads from the direction of the dual carriage way then simply follow the country road until you come to the beach you will see the entrance to the campsite directly opposite the beach.
To check in on the site you need to walk off the site and turn left and go into the entrance to the caravan site next-door. There is a shop located close to the entrance and this is where you need to go to pay for your camping. The site fees for 2012 are £17 per night for tents and £20 for touring caravans. I personally remember the days of £5 per night camping and do find this price had to accept, but it seems to be one of the cheapest in the area at the moment. Once you have paid you are given a written receipt for the duration of your stay, you will need to keep this just in case of any discrepancies but there is no need to attach it to your tent.
The shop sells many essential items at the average price of the local shops in town. They also the usual buckets, spades, children's fishing nets and crabbing lines, which are very useful as the beach opposite the site is perfect for rock pooling. At the time of our visit I found the lady working in the shop to be very pleasant and smiley, which was lovely after the long drive.
The Camping Field
The camping field itself has undergone a bit of a refurb since I last stayed here, this may also explain the price increase! Last time I stayed here the camping field was mainly grass with a path worn down by the cars but now a proper gravelled driveway has been made with parking spaces near each pitch. While the site isn't huge, I think it is very well laid out and there are numerous picnic tables near each pitch which anyone can move around and use. I think this is a nice touch and had the weather been nicer I'm sure we would have had a barbeque and made full use of them.
The views from the site are very green and literally just trees, however, when the wind isn't blowing you away you can clearly hear the sea which is fantastic to listen to as you fall asleep in your tent.
I have always found the site to be kept clean and tidy with ample rubbish bins provided and emptied on a regular basis. The grass has always been cut to a nice length, but I have noticed a few muddy patches where no grass grows and nice muddy puddles appear when it rains, so be aware of this when you are pitching your tent.
The site is close to the road, however the area is reasonably quiet and during the night you only get the occasional car coming past so I have always managed to get a nice peaceful nights sleep here. With regards to noise on the site, I have never had an issue with noisy neighbours, but I guess this is something that you will either be lucky or unlucky with depending on who is camping at the same time as you.
Toilets and Showers
To the left of the entrance there is a toilet block with four toilets, two male and two female. The toilets are stocked up with plenty of toilet roll and they do contain both a regular bin and a sanitary bin, which both seemed to be emptied regularly while we were there. I noticed on a few occasions I was sharing the toilet with random spiders and daddy long legs, but this is a factor of Wales which I have grown to accept over the years!
There are wooden doors on all of the showers and toilets and out of the ones I used all of them had working, secure locks. There is soap supplied in the toilets and the sink has two taps, both labelled as hot, however I only ever managed to get cold water out of them both, but for me this wasn't a problem as I did have a hot shower each morning.
The showers are token operated and tokens can be bought from the shop for £1, this will last around 5 minutes, I didn't time it exactly as I was busy trying to be quick! The showers were nice and warm and easy to adjust the temperature to suit. The building in which all of these showers and toilets are located is made of the stone blocks which make everything seem colder and the floor in the showers is simply concrete and very cold when you finish your shower!
Other Facilities
There is a payphone located on the side of the toilet block next to the information board which contains information about who to contact in an emergency.
On the other side of the toilet block is a sink area for washing your dirty dishes and at the back of the toilet block is a chemical toilet waste disposal point.
Dog Friendly
Wisemans Bridge Campsite is dog friendly and there is no extra charge for taking your dog. You must of course clean up after your dog and your dog must be kept on a lead while you are on the site. The bonus of this site with regards to the dogs is that the beach across the road is one of only a few within the local area which actually allows dogs onto the beach. I didn't take my dog on this occasion but I have done in the past and she has always appreciated an early morning run across the sand after a night in the tent.
Renting a Caravan
Although I have reviewed the camping part of the site it is notable to say that Wisemans also own the caravan site next-door so if camping isn't your thing you may like to know that you can rent a caravan within a fantastic distance of the local pub and the beach.
Opening Times
The site is open from the Easter holidays right through until the end of October. When we arrived it was pretty quiet so we didn't need to book a pitch in advance, however, I have seen this site get rather busy in the past so I would definitely recommend giving them a call to book your pitch if you are going in the school holidays or any other busy period.
Following my recent stay at Wisemans Bridge Campsite I have no issues with any part of this site to complain about. The location is fantastic and while the toilets do contain a few spiders and the floors are cold concrete I have come to accept this as part of the 'camping deal'. The nearby shop is well stocked and reasonably priced. I would recommend a stay on this site, after all, who wouldn't like to fall asleep listening to the waves in the sea and the stones rattling back and forth in the water?
Thanks for reading :)

Samsung Galaxy S3 Receiving Android 4.1.2 Update
The international version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 is starting to receive the Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update.
Previously seen features only delivered by the Galaxy Note 2 has made its way to Samsung's flagship smartphone due to the update. The multi-view function, for one, allows users to have more than one app on screen at a time, providing an improved multi-tasking experience.
Page buddy has also made a transition to the Galaxy S3. It allows users, for example, to insert headphones and a dedicated homescreen will appear offering various actions such as a link to the music player.
Moreover, the Android 4.1.2 update includes an updated gallery application, accompanied by a notification panel that can be customized. Also offered is a swipe input for the keyboard and smart rotation.
Galaxy S3 owners in the United States, meanwhile, will have to settle for Android 4.1 Jelly Bean in the meantime.
halcyonThey're really working hard to ensure there's not reason to buy any iPhones this holiday season. Can't help but applaud the effort. I was on the Metro this morning and the passenger next to me saw me using my S3 to read and post in this forum and said something to the effect of, "That's a neat phone, I like the screen...." I must it admit it was with a little childish pride that I told her what it was and showed it to her. I did, however initially think, "How could you not know this is an S3?"
Wrong topic? Also, last I heard, that verdict is being thrown out of the window(s)
Remember when Apple is being brand as Patent Troll? They still are, being asshole as they are, they should just patent Human Breathing process, so we all have to pay in order to live. I'll just patent walking(mobile) while talking, this way I can sue apple back.
Going to be funny when it's thrown out because of the foreman lying to the judge, I'll laugh when charges are pressed against him for lying under oath, and the jury itself putting infringement charges on devices they even said don't infringe.

Follow the directions in the "Getting There" section of the main page. Leave the A.T. below the cliffs.
Route Description
This route is just my personal route to the top as an ascent up the cliffs to Hawk Rocks. You'll be able to see the escarpment above you from the A.T. There is an opening from rock fall in the vegetation which is where I left the trail. A short Class 3 scramble over some boulders and steep rock slabs will bring you to the base of Hawk Rocks. My route traversed the ledge system on the right which ends about ten feet from the top. You'll see the nice ledge on the right side of the cliffs and it heads up almost like a miniature colouir. The crux move is at the top in the form of the overhang which composes the uppermost part of Hawk Rocks. The height of the cliffs alone is about seventy five feet and the top of Hawk Rocks towers about one hundred and fifty feet above where the A.T. crosses beneath it. If there are wet conditions or snow conditions you'll definitely need rope. Other than this one exception, all the other routes up the face are technical and class five. Of course there are great views from the top as mentioned in the overview of the main page. Have FUN but be SAFE!
Essential Gear
All your normal hiking gear, camera, water/snacks. In wet conditons you'll definitely want to bring rope because it will change the difficulty of this route to Class 5.
Miscellaneous Info
If you have information about this route that doesn't pertain to any of the other sections, please add it here.

Why De La Soul Is Giving Away All of Its Music for Free – Businessweek
Native Tongues! Assemble!
On the 25th anniversary of De La Soul's landmark debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising, the hip-hop group is said to be releasing its entire music catalog, for free, for 25 hours only. All tracks will be available at wearedelasoul.com from 11 a.m. ET today until noon Saturday. "It's about allowing our fans who have been looking and trying to get a hold of our music to have access to it," group vocalist Posdnuos explained to Rolling Stone. "This is our way of showing them how much we love them."
One of the most important acts to come out of the early and adolescent days of rap music, De La Soul has been digitally MIA over the past decade, with few of its tracks available for legal purchase or streaming. Even while longtime holdouts like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin ultimately sold their music online, fans of Me, Myself and I, Buddy, Bitties in the BK Lounge, and other classics were left in silence.
@WeAreDeLaSoul Can't find your albums digitally anywhere. Say no go?
— Sam Grobart (@samgrobart) February 5, 2014
Why the absence from digital platforms? Members of the group cite vague contract language that has made rights clearance a problem. What also may contribute to the holdup is the tremendous amount of sampling the group did in recording its music. From the beginning, De La Soul (and its frequent collaborator, producer Prince Paul) wove rich tapestries of beats and melodies, often pulled from unlikely sources such as children's songs and advertising jingles. Untangling all the permissions to that source material is like trying to find the Ark at the end of Raiders.
Giving away the music for free sidesteps some of those legal issues. Doing so over a 25-hour period also gives the gesture some buzz. Indeed, De La Soul is working on a new album that's expected later this year, and the group plans to release an EP, Preemium Soul on the Rocks, next month. The six-track mini-album consists of three tracks produced by DJ Premier of Gang Starr, as well as three tracks from equally legendary hip-hop producer Pete Rock. Releasing their existing catalog for free gets the group more attention for these upcoming efforts.
Besides, the money that's made by actually selling music has dwindled considerably. More cash can be made in touring, merchandising, and other activities. De La Soul is arguably getting more press and attention than if its music had quietly shown up on iTunes or Spotify. In spite of the title to the group's second album, we are keenly aware that De La Soul is not dead.

Red Hat weighs in on Internet regulations
In a blog post by Red Hat's legal team, the company says the piracy and intellectual property acts "raise enormous concerns for North Carolina home grown technology companies like Red Hat. ... Their potential effect on jobs and innovation is a matter of serious concern."
Red Hat relies on sometimes miniscule innovations by hundreds (or even thousands) of different people. Its developers combine those small innovations, each one seemingly inconsequential on its own, into something that can have broad impact. Depending on what comes out of Washington, that could change.
"In a single generation, the Internet has transformed our world to such an extent that it is easy to forget its miraculous properties and take it for granted," according to the blog post.

wikiHow to Seek the Presence of Jesus Christ in your Life
If you want to find life in this dark world, then you can find Jesus. If only you diligently seek him in prayer, he will personally guide you to truth in your life and will reveal his reality. This article will help you come to know Jesus and have a personal relationship with Jesus.
1Leave your worldly lifestyle and cry out to God on your knees. People are living a worldly lifestyle, suiting their own dreams, goals, and desires. Some people also have severe depression, which makes their lives very dark and desperate, but if you are humble and cry out to Jesus, and repent, (which means to turn away from your sins in your heart fully) then he will hear you, speak to you, and help you like he did for me. But you have to put Jesus first in your life, and seek a relationship with him, then you will come to know his voice. You need to be willing to open your heart to the love of Christ.
2Seek Jesus in prayer. Cry out to him, he will hear you, and answer you if you mean it! Ask Jesus to save you and forgive you of your sins, and wash you whiter than snow, however you must leave all your sins. In prayer to Jesus, you must repent of your ways, and decide to put Jesus first. Jesus will give you peace, a deep peace, and instantly the depression and the darkness will simply disappear.
3Wait for Jesus to talk to you. Jesus will talk to you, when you draw near to Him. He will show you how you need to abide with him, lay your faith in him, and leave your way. He will show you that to be serious, one has to lay aside their own way, and take up their cross and follow him! He will show you that no sin enters the kingdom of heaven, and that only if we repent and come to him for a personal relationship, which is true faith, can we enter the narrow gate to life!
4Repent: of sins. Jesus will let you know that he forgives all sins in the past, and if we make mistakes, he forgives them also IF we repent and stop doing them, however we must not go and live in sin again, or we will be lost if we don't repent, and thus end up in Hell if we die in our sins!
5Listen and let Jesus show you the truth. Many people have gone to hell, because they left it too late to repent and get to know him. Many don't want to have a relationship with him, because many people would rather continue living the way of this world, or being religious by studying the Bible and basing a doctrine on certain verses, yet not seeking him for real in prayer and commitment, as Jesus said in John 5:39. You need to seek him like you would a real person, because Jesus is alive and risen from the dead, is in heaven as King, and can hear and speak to us. He will soon return for those who accept him as their King and Saviour, and are faithful. Read Jesus's words in the Bible and obey them, and by your faith, you will be justified, and he will add your name in the Book of Life which is in heaven.
6Be Baptized in the name of Jesus the Messiah and ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit. For God will give you this gift to give you power from heaven to do his will on earth, and to lead you. The most common sign of this gift is to begin speaking in other tongues that the Holy Spirit will give you, among other gifts. Then you can pray in other tongues. This prayer is very powerful, for it is the Spirit of God praying through you. As it is said, "Today is the day of Salvation."

CANVEY Island centurion Jay Curran said he was "over the moon" at surpassing the 100-goal mark on the day he was made club captain.
When Curran, 29, equalised after 36 minutes against Bognor Regis Town on Saturday it was the 100th time he had wheeled away in celebration for the Gulls. He added the 101st before the game was out.
Curran follows in the footsteps of club greats Andy Jones and Lee Boylan, but says he isn't finished yet – with tonight's opponents East Thurrock United next on his hit list.
"I wanted to get it off my back early on so I am pleased to reach 100 so early," he said. "I knew I was on 99 and a few people have asked if I thought about it over the summer, but to be honest I didn't.
"I knew it was always going to come, but to get it on my first day as captain made it a bit more special."
Curran said manager Danny Heale told him he wanted him to skipper the side on the day of the Bognor Regis match.
"I spoke to Danny in the week before and he announced it in the dressing room on Saturday. It came as a bit of a surprise but I can't wait to lead the team out again.
"I was always scoring goals when I was growing up and always wanted to be top scorer in the team. Four or five years ago I started to move to the right hand side and I wasn't scoring as often, but the last few seasons I have been on the right of a 4-3-3 and I have done well."
The hot-shot said he always looks forward to facing tonight's opponents, East Thurrock, and has an extra reason to want to do well against them.
"East Thurrock is my local team. I can walk to their ground from my house and we want to go there and get three points, plus I would love to beat my local team!"
Curran is aiming for 15-20 goals from wide positions this year but remains confident the team can push for a play-off place.
He said: "We are capable of reaching the play-offs I am sure of that. We will give anyone a game and everyone here knows that."
And Heale has backed Canvey to beat "bogey team" East Thurrock United and take all three points tonight.
Canvey have lost their last three matches against the Rocks and have not been successful against their rivals at Rookery Hill since the Thurrock side were promoted to the Ryman Premier back in 2011/12, losing all three league games.
Both sides come into the match off the back of impressive opening day wins, the Gulls beating Bognor Regis Town and East Thurrock United defeating AFC Hornchurch, and Heale knows his side have a tough match on their hands.
"They got a very good result at the weekend," said Heale. "And we must look to push past our recent poor form against them and try to get a win.
"But we are a different kettle of fish this year. If we play anything like we did on Saturday tonight then I think we will win the match. We need consistency but we won't be taking East Thurrock for granted."
Heale confirmed Victor Osobu is likely to be fit although he picked up a knee injury in Saturday's win.
Meanwhile Rocks boss John Coventry said he was hopeful of having Nicky Symons back in the squad, after he pulled out of Saturday's squad on Friday after being admitted to hospital suffering with kidney dehydration.
"Nicky is an important player for us," said Symons. "We had little time to prepare without him for the first game and we hope he is fit. If not we will find a way to manager without him.
"Manu (Osei) and Reece (Harris) did very well for us on their debuts and so did Ben (Wood) so if we can play well again there is no reason we can't beat Canvey."
