Several times already at theBandBer we've reported first hand on accommodation owners' experiences of Groupon and other daily deals sites. The consensus so far seems to be that flash sales can be useful when it comes to boosting your property's profile, as long as you don't expect to make any real money out of it.
None the less, the fact remains that many BandBers have always been wary of this kind of sales technique. And now it seems that their scepticism is fully justified. When it floated on the stock market in November 2011, Groupon was valued at $20 per share, but that valuation has now sunk as low as $2.60. More pertinently, it has also started to move away from its core business, instead using the huge customer database it has built up to sell "vacuum cleaners, mattresses and other overstock merchandise," as Stephen Jones of Tnooz observes.

If your goal is to live healthy, then you need to think about more than just the food you put in your mouth. Even the healthiest of eaters should look at their home environment and try to work on decreasing toxic chemicals. Simple Green is a company dedicated to creating effective cleaning products that are also safe and free from toxic chemicals.
I was given a bottle of Simple Green All Purpose Cleaner to review. I had the opportunity to review products from their Naturals line last year, so I had high expectations for this product. The cleaner comes in a concentrated solutions, which means one bottle will last a VERY long time. The kit I received came with a dilution bottle and a tip sheet for use. You are able to customize the amount of Simple Green solution you use based on whether you are doing light or heavy cleaning. The picture below illustrates how much, or should I say how little, solution you need to use for light cleaning! (Yes, that tiny green amount of liquid at the bottom of the bottle on the left is all you need!)
The product is non-toxic, biodegradable, non-hazardous, non-flammable, and non-corrosive. It is designed to be use for general, all-purpose cleaning. So, how does it work? Here is the before and after picture of my back door which was embarrassingly filthy:
I was able to clean the door with minimal scrubbing (there is some damage to the side of the doorknob, it is not dirt)! The product really did work great and the smell was practically non-existent. I am thrilled at the idea of using concentrated formula. Because this product can be used for multiple purposes, you can eliminate many of your other cleaners. Think of the money you will save!
Buy it here: You can purchase Simple Green products from a variety of retail locations and from Amazon.
Win it here: One lucky Cake Mom reader will win the same Simple Green All Purpose Kit (solution, dilution bottle, & tip sheet) reviewed in this post!

Miyazaki Comes to Town -- Part 1
View trailers and clips from Hayao Miyazaki's latest, Ponyo! It's not often that the great Hayao Miyazaki comes to town in support of his films. Although he came to L.A. when the English-language version of Spirited Away was released, he refused to attend the Academy Awards to collect his Oscar in protest of the Iraq war. But John Lasseter, Kathleen Kennedy, Frank Marshall and Disney as a whole are pulling out all the stops to ensure the greatest possible box office success for the English-language version of Ponyo (opening today). They're launching the Hans Christian Andersen-inspired fable on 927 screens: the largest rollout ever for Miyazaki in this country. Not surprisingly, the reviews have been glowing. Ponyo arguably skews younger than previous Miyazaki films and has a simpler design, but it succeeds in enchanting young and old alike. It is the tale of a magical goldfish (voiced by Noah Cyrus) that wishes to break free from her overbearing, wizard of a father (voiced by Liam Neeson), and become human to maintain a friendship with a five-year-old boy (Frankie Jonas) in a nearby seaside village. Although he has loving parents (Tina Fey and Matt Damon) his father is rarely home so they have their own issues to work out. Last month Miyazaki made his first trip to Comic-Con in San Diego before holding a press conference with Lasseter in Beverly Hills and then getting feted later that evening at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences: chatting for a couple of hours with the chief creative officer of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. The following is an edited transcript of the press conference; the second part will be a recap of "The Marc Davis Celebration of Animation: Hayao Miyazaki." AWN: How do come up with your worlds? Hayao Miyazaki: I do all my work on storyboard, so as I draw my storyboard, the world gets more and more complex. And as a result, my north, south, east, west sense of direction kind of shift and go off base. But it seems like my staff as well as the audience don't quite realize that this is happening. Don't tell them about it. AWN: How important is it to get elements [about preserving the environment] into your films? HM: The most important thing is, I think, that even within such an environment, children grow up, they learn to love and they enjoy living in that environment. AWN: What was the original inspiration for Ponyo? HM: I think John Lasseter knows as well, but it's really hard to explain what becomes the motivation or the instigation to do a film. I feel like I'm searching in my subconscious with a fishing net and I happened upon catching a goldfish in that net and that was the inspiration for starting to make this movie. AWN: What have been some of the influences throughout your career? HM: There are many, many people so I can't give all their names. And I forget their names. So I can't really tell you. AWN: John, how difficult was it to getting the script, getting the dialogue to coordinate with the voice movements already done and then getting the [appropriate] voice talent? John Lasseter: One of the biggest challenges in taking and creating the English language versions of Miyazaki sans' films… is that I don't want the English versions to change anything in [his] story. The first thing we do is get a direct translation. Even though the sentences will be hard to understand, I just want to know exactly what's being said. And then I work with Steve Alpert at Studio Ghibli and we'll rearrange the words to fit into sentences. And that's our starting place. And, in this case, we worked with Melissa Mathison, the brilliant screenwriter, and Kathy and Frank, the co-executive producers with me, and we'll sit down to discuss every step of the way what we want to do with this. And the goal is to make the [language] for American audiences to be very natural -- you don't think of this as being a dubbed Japanese film. We want everyone to just swept away with this story. However, there are some things that Japanese audiences will understand visually that American audiences won't. And in those cases, what I strive to do is make sure that the American audience will be at the exact same level of understanding at any one time in the movie that a Japanese audience would be. And sometimes that's a bit of a challenge. An obvious example of that was on Spirited Away when the main character was exploring the village and looks at this building. All Japanese audiences would know right away that it's a bath house. But no one in this country would know… so we just added a little line.

Winnipeg's police chief Keith McCaskill gave an update to the city's protection committee Monday morning regarding the status of the police department's helicopter. McCaskill said the department can't yet justify a second aircraft, after a CTV news report prompted calls for a second unit. The report said the helicopter had been grounded lately due to maintenance and staffing issues. Neighboring cities Calgary and Edmonton both have two helicopters but Chief McCaskill said the department can say whether a second one if necessary until the first has been fully evaluated.
"The helicopter is a very expensive tool. It's a very exceptional tool," he said. "If we're in a position to say that there should be an expansion, then we'd make the recommendation. We're not there yet." He added that his helicopter has been grounded primarily due to staffing issues arising from two pilots quitting in recent months. "This is a tool we want up as much as we possibly can. Two less pilots makes an impact" McCaskill said.
The chief advised the committee that the helicopter had flown for 1,100 hours and responded to over 2,000 incidents since January 2011. It helped net 147 arrests last year and flew an average of 81 hours each month. During the first three months of 2012 the aircraft flew about 40 hours each month on average. A search is ongoing to find another pilot while the department prepares a more detailed update for city officials.

The 2012 Food and Farm Bill discussions on Capitol Hill are underway. The first Senate hearing, held this week, focused on conservation. Among other important topics addressed: the idea of tying crop insurance payments with soil conservation. We say yes, definitely!
This month and next the Senate Agriculture Committee, chaired by Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Michigan), will hold three more hearings. Hearings in the House begin next month. PAN and our allies in the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC) will be closely following the debates.
Farmers across the country are seeing the impacts of climate change first hand. Crop losses to drought, floods, heat waves, insects and diseases made headlines throughout the year.
We hear Congress plans to improve crop insurance programs in recognition of these hardships, as negotiations for the 2012 Food and Farm Bill move ahead. But to really reduce risks, they should go one step further: tie crop insurance payments with an obligation to create healthy soil.
With last month's death of the congressional Super Committee, so too died the 2011 Food and Farm Bill proposal that was folded into those fast-track talks. So what happens next?
A mixed bag of disappointments and glimmers of hope, the 2011 proposal now enters into the more normal process of policy development. Because of the tireless efforts of National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition members and many organizations around the country, this starting point for the 2012/13 Food and Farm Bill does contain some elements of our priorities — namely, support for conservation, local food, beginning farmers and organics.
Update on the crazy, secret Food and Farm Bill: The House and Senate Agriculture committees failed (at least by the time of preparing this blog post) to get their Food and Farm Bill proposals to the congressional Super Committee so now our ONLY opportunity to influence this unprecedented secret process is to target the Super Committee members themselves.
Things are moving fast, furiously and secretively in Washington, DC with the entirely undemocratic development of the 2012 Food and Farm Bill — an approximately $300 billion, tax dollar-funded set of programs covering everything from farm support programs and renewable energy research to food stamps and conservation initiatives.
It is expected that the 12-member congressional Super Committee will receive a Food and Farm Bill proposal this week from the chair and ranking member of the House and Senate Agriculture Committees, and then decide to accept or reject it within a week's time. That's four individuals — referred to as the Big 4 — making huge decisions that affect us all, and with virtually no public input!

witch ones do you use/like
any brands you hate?
post pictures!!!!!
I use these-
JVC over the head headphones
good bass, great at blocking out sound, they come in colorful colors!, and I like them better then the earbud headphones cuz that shit always falls out and it gets really fucking annoying.
cord is a little long, but easy to get used to, a little hard to handle when they are around my neck cuz I always accidentally yank the cord.
the first pair I had broke after 6 months, but I taped over some parts of the cord and its been longer then 6 months with my second pair.
only $20, I figure they're worth replacing every half year, since earbud headphones break after awhile too
Sony Earbuds
they suck, dont buy them. Crappy bass, they dont fall out of your ear much, but still do sometimes. I rarely use them, so I dont know their lifespan, they were like $13
JVC Gumy Earbuds
really good sound, rarely fall out of your ear
lasted me a little less then a year, only $10

Mark Rasch is dying to get in on the super-fast 4G cellphone networks he keeps hearing so much about. Advertisements with streaming movies, live sports, even lightning bolts that help create stirring multimedia experiences on the go have been tempting him for more than a year.
An AT&T customer, he was thrilled last week when the firm released its first two "real" 4G LTE phones -- the HTC Vivid and Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. A Washington, D.C.,-area resident, he's lucky to live in one of the handful of cities where the providers' highest-speed service is currently available, so he was ready to jump in with both feet.
Then, he read the contract.
It says this: "Data sessions may be conducted only for the following purposes: (i) Internet browsing; (ii) email; and (iii) intranet access." Nothing about lightning bolts, and according to Rasch, nothing that he can't already do with his old phone. He found the limitations troubling.
"If you buy these phones thinking that you can use them, any of the thousands of Android apps, and the LTE data network for a host of really cool things like making VOIP calls, using Skype, streaming audio or video, remotely accessing a home PC, accessing cloud services, or any of the thousands of things that such apps enable, think again," he said. "In effect, you are buying a fully enabled phone, crippled by AT&T's Terms of Use."
The new AT&T 4G LTE service, promising download speeds of 5-to-12 Mbps, could be incredibly attractive to consumers because that much bandwidth is almost enough to permit streaming of HD movies or sports to big living room flat-screen televisions, while leaving enough headroom for other family members to still surf the Web. It theoretically could replace the need for a hard-wired Net connection, and make that home broadband connection completely portable – but not if providers saddle the service with restrictions.
This holiday shopping season will be the first that all four major cellphone providers will be hawking their faster 4G networks. But Rasch is concerned about the long list of activities that appear to be prohibited by AT&T's terms of service. While such restrictions are not new for 4G, they are far more relevant -- why pay for a high-bandwidth phone if not for high-bandwidth activities?
"AT&T promotes and advertises all the 'cool' things their devices can do," said Rasch, a digital law consultant and the former head of the Department of Justice's computer crimes unit. "You can download apps, listen to radio stations, stream TV, watch movies, play games with third parties, share data, log into your home PC, do real-time GPS, get traffic and weather reports, and thousands of other things. But only, according to the contract, on WiFi. To me, advertising and promoting services that you know you don't offer in the way that people are likely to use them is ... false advertising."
AT&T, in an e-mail statement, didn't directly address Rasch's complaints, but it did say that its new phones offer rich experiences to users, including apps with video, and that it continually works to balance bandwidth demands to keep its network running smoothly.
"Our (terms of service) help us ensure the efficient use of limited wireless spectrum and strong network performance for all customers," the firm said. "A variety of video apps, including Sling, Netflix, YouTube and others, are optimized for use on wireless networks, and are available for AT&T customers today. Among other things, this optimization ensures a quality experience for the customer without excessive data usage. We are committed to working with apps developers to help them to optimize apps for use over our wireless network."
The firm did not answer requests for clarification about individual elements contained in its terms of contract, responding simply: "We're comfortable with our terms of service and the many ways customers use AT&T's mobile broadband network."
So does AT&T's terms of service contract for new high-speed wireless gadgets throw a wet blanket on consumers, or not? The difference may be mere semantics at the moment – AT&T appears to allow many of the activities that Rasch believes are restricted by the terms of service. And at the moment, AT&T's 4G LTE service only works in Boston, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Athens, Ga. It will turn on LTE in six more cities next week, and hopes to reach a total of 15 cities by the end of the year.
But Michael Weinberg, staff attorney at consumer advocacy firm Public Knowledge, says the semantics matter.
"(The contract) does read incredibly restrictive, essentially, only Web browsing and email. Is downloading apps using one of those two things? Playing Scrabble?" Weinberg said. "The classic definition of Internet browsing is things done in a browser. This is another example of a terms of service written in a way that has traps … that can be pulled up to stop people doing things (the company) doesn't like."
The new 4G -- for "Fourth Generation" -- cellphone standard is off to a rocky start. Promising speeds that rival fast, hard-wired home Internet connections, 4G phones create possibilities such as streaming full-screen HD movies in the back seat of a moving family minivan. But carriers have co-opted the term 4G, turning it into catch-all phrase that includes refer to lower-speed networks such as AT&T's HSPA+. Marketplace confusion reigns – the new 4G LTE phones released by AT&T this month are the providers first "real" 4G entrants. And, early 4G users on all networks report it doesn't really provide video streaming nirvana.
Meanwhile, bandwidth caps render true 4G devices essentially useless, some critics say. A report by Public Knowledge published in Augustsaid that users streaming at top 4G speeds would use up a typical 2 gigabyte monthly bandwidth allotment after watching just 3 hours of a Netflix movie or uploading two 10-minute HD movies. Since then, basic capped plans have risen slightly, and data plans let users pay for more bandwidth, but the costs quickly become prohibitive.
"They promise unlimited possibilities. However, they will deliver little except anxiety and disappointment to millions of consumers who will pay extra for speeds they cannot use for fear of running over their data cap," the group said in its report, which concluded that 4G services are "a waste of money. … For the perhaps first time, the introduction of a generationally faster technology will not have a widespread impact on online behavior."
Cellphone service providers must perform a delicate dance with each new network rollout. On one hand, they have to brag about great new features and capabilities, but at the same time they must avoid creating a gold rush that clogs their networks and avoid inviting network abuse. High overage fees are the most practical way to stop bandwidth hogs from degrading fragile high-speed networks, but restrictive usage contracts are a handy legal arrow to have in the quiver.
AT&T's been down this road before. In 2009, the firm temporarily blocked usage of the popular Slingbox streaming TV service. It was restored nearly a year later, when the two firms reached an agreement that helped AT&T manage network usage.
AT&Ts current 4G and 3G contracts contain language that appears to restrict usage of the Slingbox by its subscribers. The terms clearly prohibit "redirecting television signals for viewing on Personal Computers," for example.
But Jay Tannenbaum, Slingbox spokesman, said that the Slingbox app works just fine on AT&T's network, and he doesn't anticipate problems with the new 4G LTE service.
"We have no problems with any carrier," he said. "We try to be good network citizens and work with the bandwidth we have. ... We have had no problems with our data being limited on any network."
Net neutrality advocates worry that a provider like AT&T could choose to discriminate against a specific application like Slingbox and favor its own flavor of the same tool. But the terms of service issues raised by Rasch don't suggest any underhanded attempt to gain a market advantage; they sound more like an effort at self-preservation. Many activities expressly forbidden in the AT&T contract are illegal anyway, and much of the language is standard across many carriers.
But the restrictive nature of AT&T's contract does stand out. For example, AT&T language says, "data sessions may be conducted only for the following purposes," and then lists browsing, email, and intranet access.
Verizon's terms of service puts it this way: "You can use our Data Services for accessing the Internet and for such things as: (i) Internet browsing; (ii) email; (iii) intranet access ... (iv) uploading, downloading and streaming of audio, video and games; and (v) Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)."
T-Mobile's contract falls somewhere in between. It reads: "Your Data Plan is intended for Web browsing, messaging, and similar activities on your Device and not on any other equipment. Unless explicitly permitted by your Data Plan, other uses, including for example, using your Device as a modem or tethering your Device to a personal computer or other hardware, are not permitted.
Sprint's contract merely prohibits illegal activity, or "excessive utilization of network resources."
AT&T's restrictive list of unwelcome behaviors offers considerable detail.
"Examples of prohibited uses include, without limitation, the following: (i) server devices or host computer applications, including, but not limited to, Web camera posts or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, automated machine-to-machine connections or peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing; (ii) as a substitute or backup for private lines, wirelines or full-time or dedicated data connections," it reads.
AT&T's lawyers are grabbing as much legal ground as they can to support any possible usage challenge, Rasch said, "to make it easy for them to enforce their rights at some later date."
The problem is, even if the contract isn't functionally restrictive, it raises doubts about the future Rasch argued.
"Show me where in contract it says I can use Slingbox, unless you consider Slingbox to be Internet browsing, which is absurd," Rasch said. "And is FTP use Internet browsing? The problem is they can decide at any time that doing these things is a violation of their terms of service and terminate you, and you would have no legal recourse."
The real problem with such assertive language, even if it's loosely interpreted, is the chilling effect it could have on mobile broadband technology, said Michael Weinberg, staff attorney at Public Knowledge.
"If i am the kind of consumer who tries to stay on the right side of the law, I could read this and worry – should I use my Slingbox? Will I wake up one day and find it's been cut off?" he said. He conceded that there are good reasons to terminate network abusers, and that there's nothing wrong with AT&T's decision to spell out restrictions in detail.
"But they talk about things like web broadcasting, saying you can't do that. But web broadcasting is really an undefined term. You can download an app right now that lets you use your phone to broadcast what's going on to the world using your phone. Why should that be restricted? We don't even know what that will turn into," he said. "This is a classic problem a terms of service policy where they reserve the right to cut people off. They don't necessarily enforce it, but it's there if they need it."

Tim Thomas, the top puck stopper for the National Hockey League's Boston Bruins, recently announced he was hanging up his mask and glove. Not quitting, exactly, just taking a year off to go livin' la vida loca and avoid having to skip another White House gig in the event that the Bruins win another Stanley Cup during another right winger's (the non-hockey kind) term as president.
The decision had absolutely nothing to do with other athletes firing pucks at his head at 100 mph. The fact that some actually hit his head may have though.
His speech writers even came up with rational-sounding reasons for him -- he wanted to devote more time to the 3 F's: Friends, Family and Faith.
The betting line on how long someone used to The Big Bucks and adoring fans can remain sane taking out the trash, watching Ellen and muttering "yes, dear" two, maybe, three times a day hasn't been posted yet in Vegas. But I'm guessing that unless his idol, conspiracy theorist Glenn Beck, hires him as a radio co-host, immediately after the presidential election, the Bruins will read FaceBook and learn they have a goalie glut.
Thomas' age makes regaining his old form after a year spent lounging on the sofa drinking Coors a long shot. It's not unprecedented, though; other "that's all I can stand and I can't stands no more" athletes have succeeded in returning from vacations lasting as long as two years – or as short as 3 days!
Both former National Basketball Association star Michael Jordan and the NHL's Mario Lemieux retired not once, but three times, with Jordan taking a side trip into Major League Baseball to prove he couldn't hit a curveball. Both came back for the final time near Thomas' age, but with clubs they bought before finally hanging it up for good. At least we think it was for good.
There's also Dave Cowens, the hyperactive red-headed center of basketball's Boston Celtics during their championship years in the 1970s. At a mere 6-9, he managed to hold his own against taller opponents by playing with all-out, maniacal intensity at both ends of the court.
Always one to dribble to a different drummer, Cowens, after one championship victory, slept on a park bench on Boston Common after partying with Celtics fans throughout Boston.
A sequence in a 1976 game best describes his style of play. Houston Rockets guard Mike Newlin foolishly stepped in front of Cowens not once, but twice, and then feigned falling down, his Academy Award level performances drawing fouls against the Celtics' center. Cowens hated "floppers", who he called cheaters, and thought a little show-and-tell was in order.
On the next Houston possession, Cowens hit Newlin with a flying tackle at midcourt, knocking him into the press table. Just to make sure he got his point across, he glared at the referee and in his best Crocodile Dundee voice declared, "Now that's a f***ing foul."
Predictably, this manic approach burned him out a year later. In midseason, needing "to clear his head", he decided to replace his hefty basketball income by selling Christmas trees at his farm in Kentucky, and then accepting an internship at a Foxboro racetrack. In between, he embarked on a meandering road trip to Florida with pals. Boredom set in after a few months, and he returned to the Celtics. "I was just exploring other opportunities," he said later.
They were hints earlier in his career that Cowens might eventually go over the wall. In the previous season, the night before traveling to a playoff game, he became a Boston cab driver. A 6-9, 230-pound red headed cab driver that, amazingly, no one recognized.
"I just wanted to see what it's like … you even get to keep the fares you made," he said.
In 1980, Cowens decided once more to retire and figured writing a Boston Globe article was the way to announce it. But just two years later, Milwaukee Bucks coach, and former teammate, Don Nelson lured him back a final time.
But my favorite "retirement" story – albeit a brief one – involved two Boston Red Sox players.
One, Pumpsie Green, a backup infielder, has the distinction of being the first black player to play for the Sox. The other, pitcher Gene Conley, is the only man to play for three professional teams in the same city (baseball's Boston Braves and Red Sox, plus the Celtics) and to win championships in two major American sports (baseball's Milwaukee Braves and three with the Celtics). "I wore a jockstrap year-round," he said later.
He also had a demonstrated talent for consuming large amounts of alcohol.
In New York City on July 26, 1962, the woeful Sox suffered a humiliating loss to the first place Yankees, putting them a whopping 18 games behind. Conley had started the game and lost, giving up eight runs with two outs in the third inning. To pass the time through the final six innings, he did what any self respecting Sox pitcher does – he emptied every can of cold beer he could find in the clubhouse, establishing himself as the patron saint of the 2011 team's pitching staff. Its unknown if a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken was delivered to the park.
Trying to catch the post-game flight to Washington, the team bus got stuck in a massive traffic jam. Nothing moved for over an hour, except for Conley, who was not very good at sitting in buses (especially after his clubhouse refreshments), and Pumpsie, unluckily seated next to Gene.
They asked off the bus to find a restroom and found one conveniently located in a bar. By the time they came out, the bus had escaped.
Staggering from the George Washington Bridge to a Lexington Avenue inn, they spent hours discussing New York's traffic problems, the weather and political conditions in Israel. Then they noticed a headline in an afternoon newspaper reporting that the dynamic duo had jumped the Sox and their careers in baseball were likely over.
Pumpsie got worried, and Conley discovered he had even bigger problems. At first, he figured, what the hell, there's still basketball, and likely called his long suffering wife to tell her he was coming home. Immediately aware of his impaired condition, she had her own ideas of where he should go.
Pumpsie, sobering up quickly, decided it was best to rejoin the team in Washington. Conley, however, had a better plan to avoid both the team and his wife.
"Pumpsie, its time to make a choice. Are you going to Washington or Israel?"
Uhhh … Israel??
Pumpsie made it to the Sox's hotel alone, and got slapped with a $1,000 fine. The team, later, found an even better way to reward him for his extracurricular activities by trading him to the even more woeful New York Mets.
"Why didn't you go to Israel?" somebody asked him later. "I'm not Jewish," Pumpsie reasoned.
Conley wasn't either, but he had money in his pocket. So he got a room at the Waldorf, and continued his drinking binge. The more he drank, the more he was convinced that he'd be safer in Israel than facing either his team or significant other. Three days later he was spotted at Idlewild International Airport "extremely inebriated" trying to board a plane to Jerusalem. Lacking passport, luggage and coherent speech, El Al Airlines wisely refused him to board.
Now out of money, Conley chose the lesser of two evils, and decided to face the team owner instead of the Mrs. Once back in Boston, he received a $2,000 fine and a three days suspension.
A few years later at age 33, he parted company with professional sports. He was once found sobbing in a church, and a man, seeking to console him, asked "Did you lose someone dear to you?" and Conley replied, "No, sir. I lost my fastball."
Green was eventually honored by the Boston Red Sox in a first-pitch ceremony, in recognition of his breaking the Sox color barrier and now lives in El Cerrito, California. Several years after he retired, Eddie Andelman's Sports Huddle, a radio sports call-in show, would close each show with "Goodnight, Pumpsie Green, wherever you are!"
Conley lives in Clermont, Florida, and Kathryn, his wife of over 60 years, wrote a biography about him titled One of A Kind. He wisely quit drinking three years after his sports career ended.
Cowens is now a special assistant to the President of Basketball Operations for the NBA's Detroit Pistons. After his brief 'retirement', he told reporters "I came back because Jim Loscutoff and Bob Brannum told me to. They both wore my No. 18 and they want it retired."
Jordan is the majority owner and head of operations for the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats, and Mario Lemieux is the Pittsburgh Penguins' principal owner and chairman of the board.
And Thomas? He's hanging out in Peabody or Danvers and working diligently on his Bucket List and FaceBook page.

According to British trade paper MCV, latest calculations by Sony suggest that the European user base for the PlayStation 2 could overtake that of the U.S. later this year.
The U.S. installed user base for the PlayStation was 30.5 million units at the end of January, while total PAL sales (presumably including non-European PAL territories such as Australasia) were 28.8 million at the same time. Sonys own calculations suggest that PAL sales could overtake the U.S. before Christmas this year.
Total global sales for the PlayStation 2 are now put at 85 million (compared to around 20 million for the Xbox and approximately 18 million for the GameCube). Global sales for the original PlayStation are put at around 100 million, suggesting that the PlayStation 2 will easily eclipse it before the end of its lifetime.
Although the overall European video games market has long been at parity with the U.S., the complications resulting from language and cultural differences in each of the many different countries has meant that companies have always found it less profitable than either North America or Japan.
Both publishers and console manufacturers have steadily been increasing their efforts over the last few years though, with Microsoft rumored to be planning a simultaneous U.S. and European launch for the next generation Xbox console, and Japanese publishers in particular specifically courting European customers with localized content.
Holy smokes! No wonder Microsoft is releasing Xenon for both NA and Europe at the same time! They obviously see the gaming market in Europe! I hope Sony catches on quick, they better ease the pain of having to wait for the fans in Europe (a.k.a. Release either right after NA, or together with NA)!
"Please understand that in cases where the OS itself is acting in an unstable fashion, this software could behave in unpredictable ways. Unfortunately, this happens to be the case at all times with Microsoft OS's." - Japanese PC game disclaimers!
i think they should expand btw i am on my psp
ok now I'm on my pc, it is a LOT easier to type. they should definitly expand. btw it is hard to type when you're on a psp, the stupid cell phone thing is retarded
Agreed, the gaps between console releases have been a bit much sometimes. I can't remember how long we had to wait for the PS2, but I'm sure it was long enough to become a bit aggrevating.Originally Posted by The_One
Anyway, good on Microsoft for that move.....
Didn't the Playstation 1 sell the most units in Europe? I'm pretty sure it did, so this is no surprise that they expect the PS2 to do the same.
I have to say I'm a bit surprised at how close they just because of the localization issue with all the Euro countries.
Since the US still has more, are they confirming that more PS2's sell each week in Europe?
It doesn't state that exactly in the article, but I would assume that as European sales are slowly catching up, that the European weekly sales are greater than in the US.
Its was nearly a year if I remember correctly.Originally Posted by Matt
What anoys me is that they have all this evidence and yet they takes so damn long to get the games here. Stupid pal...
Hehe, when i was buying my ps2 1.5 months ago there werent even ps2 in stock :shock:
They stil sell like a train here in Holland
Blagh. Too late for me... the damage is done *cry* :wink:
But seriously, 85% of my PS1/PS2 games are US versions bought on Ebay. I'm a huge RPG fan and these games take 5+ months to arrive in the UK. And some (my favorites)... dont even make it!
Its just stupid. I understand it takes time to translate the many languages of the EU, but the UK should be included in with the US/Canada/Australia markets.
And they complain about console modding. I'll be ordering my PS3 from the US. Why not? It'll be availible sooner, the games arrive their sooner and some games are only made for the US/Japan.
Not to mention when it does actually make here from america the prices aren't converted they just change the dollar sign for a pound sign.
e.g. $300 will be £300 CRAZY!!!
the only reason that the US is loosing market share and europe is gaining in terms of ps2 sales it's because microsoft has been brainwashing the us market. sony may have better marketing but microsoft has way better and more advertising than ps2. also remember PSP came out here and people have stopped and actually bought psps instead of ps2s. also since psp has not released on europe then people are more focused on ps2 only. so it's bound to gain marketshare and here to loose. i think sony has already a super strong hold of the japanese market share i think they should put a bit more attention the US and bring out more FPS to the console. since those are the types of games that appeal more to the american market share. once sony has that the us market share will rise significantly.
Hopefully Europe will be shown as a more important market than it is right now thus getting more and faster game releases.
It is just not reasonable to have a game released nearly a year after the original Japanese launch.

Really guys,
In holland almost every 16 year old has either a PS or a Xbox. Not surprised about Europe exceeding US like i told earlyer. However Xbox is way more populair here, kinda shitty. Only because it has better graphics :S Sony should had putted more ram in the PlayStation 2 damnit.
Actually, Australia (and New Zealand) are part of European (PAL) territory so we have to wait just as long as people in the UK or any other part of Europe. I'm hoping that next generation, all the territories are treated fairly equally and all of us in PAL land aren't left waiting a year for the PS3 and it's games.Originally Posted by eggyoke

RTEMS Hitachi SH Applications Supplement
An RTEMS context switch is defined as the act of taking the CPU from the currently executing task and giving it to another task. This process involves the following components:
RTEMS defines the hardware state of a task to include the CPU's data registers, address registers, and, optionally, floating point registers.
Context switch time is often touted as a performance measure of real-time executives. However, a context switch is performed as part of a directive's actions and should be viewed as such when designing an application. For example, if a task is unable to acquire a semaphore and blocks, a context switch is required to transfer control from the blocking task to a new task. From the application's perspective, the context switch is a direct result of not acquiring the semaphore. In this light, the context switch time is no more relevant than the performance of any other of the executive's subroutines which are not directly accessible by the application.
In spite of the inappropriateness of using the context switch time as a performance metric, RTEMS context switch times for floating point and non-floating points tasks are provided for comparison purposes. Of the executives which actually support floating point operations, many do not report context switch times for floating point context switch time. This results in a reported context switch time which is meaningless for an application with floating point tasks.
The actual context switch times are reported in the Timing Data chapter of this supplement.

Guatemala Café de Mujeres Fair Trade Organic
Guatemala Café de Mujeres Fair Trade OrganicProfileThis coffee is the result of a special project conducted by CODECH, a cooperative located in Guatemala's Huehuetenango growing region. Although the co-op has hundreds of individual members, this lot was grown on farms that are owned or managed exclusively by 350 women producers, of which there are 350. In addition to the purchase price, a premium was paid to the co-op, with the funds designated for programs that promote women's health, including a focus on prenatal health care. CODECH, which stands for Coordinadora de Organizaciones de Desarrollo de Concepción Huista, was founded in 1998 as a cooperative for coffee and a variety of other agricultural products. The farmers live in the area surrounding the town of Concepcion Huista, where they cultivate small plots of land which average just over one acre in size. Equator has formed a very special relationship with Patrocina Camposeco, who serves CODECH as a promoter of heath care. She provides basic health education to members and their families, as well as gender equality workshops for women producers and their husbands. We recognize the importance of her work and vision. Patrocina has experienced recent medical complications and Equator is providing financial support for her treatment as well as supporting her through her final year of nursing school. Cupping NotesA beautiful, round coffee with a sweet chocolate base, perfume-like floral notes and flavors of cranberry and caramel.

The Gravitational Lensing Effect
The rays of light emitted from the celestial object - in this case, a galaxy - are bent around another object of mass sufficient to distort spacetime (e.g. a black hole or a galaxy cluster.)


text: Maybe I'm doing something wrong but for some reason the drum fill indicators do not show up in the RBN preview. Has this happened to anybody yet? I'm assuming that in order for me to indicate that a drum fill should occur over a certain period of time for all difficulties I would simply have to create a note on 120(C8) with a duration of the length of fill that I want to let the user experiment through. Is this correct? (see the image attached)

Grab a Button!
Product 179/186
You wanted to see me, Captain?
Have a seat, Detective.
I prefer to stand.
The captains response was dry. His lips formed a rueful smile. I didnt ask. We might be here a while, and I dont want you looming over me while we talk.
Oh, please. Youre nearly as tall as me sitting.
You have exceptional talent at looming. Sit.
The owner of the beautiful voice sighed, a sound like wind in virgin forest. Whatever. Matt heard one of the cheap office chairs give the tiniest squeak, as if a child had perched on it. Why isnt Frankenstein sitting down?
The captain took on the clipped tones of a parent dealing with a particularly frustrating child. He doesnt loom, and we havent been making small talk.
Doesnt loom? Hes a mountain! How does a mountain not loom in an office the size of a walk-in closet?
Inspector Franklin, it appears the detective is intimidated by you. Please, have a seat.
Matt knew when an invitation was an order. Gingerly, he settled himself onto a chair opposite the detective. As he did so, he caught a glimpse of
Beauty. Perfection. An angelic visage gazed at him and found him wanting. Features too even to be real stared back at him, formed of skin like milk and framed by broad curls of jet. Lips the color of carnation petals moved, and her voice filled the room again. Captain, why is the creepy scarecrow staring at me?

With the rumour mills firing up to full capacity about the next iPad and its specifications, the time has come to ask the question: Will I buy a tablet?
I personally don't have a tablet device, I've never really needed one for home having both a netbook and desktop machine. Recently though I've been toying of the idea of using one for work.
What I'd want to do with a tablet for work:
- Take notes in meetings
- Record meetings (audio)
- Access previous meeting notes
- Access WiFi in meetings
- Create or Access documents in meetings
What I'd like to do with a tablet for home:
- Browse the internet
- Write on-the-go blog posts
- Play games
- Stream movies from network drive
The software I use every day like Dropbox and Evernote and Google Docs are supported on most devices these days so transferring from an Android or Apple device would be easy.
One thing I can see that may be a slight hitch in this plan is that I own an Kindle Keyboard. Now this doesn't seem like too big a deal, but I do love my Kindle to death so moving to either Kindle for iPad or Kindle for Android may be either an enhanced experience or a degraded experience depending on the circumstances.
In any case I'll still be keeping my Kindle Keyboard as it is the best travel companion one could ask for, other than some good human company of course!
So here lies the dilemma, jump now? or wait till the next Apple iPad is released?
Decisions, Decisions…

Kent Library
History of the Kent Library
The Kent Library was born seventy-six years ago on August 23, 1920. Located in a room of the Red Cross Community house, this first library was comprised of donations, and the staff members were volunteers. On December 22, 1922, the Library moved into a room in the Kent City Hall at Second and Grove. City funds supported the library. The first salaried librarian, Anna Fisher, was hired in 1926 and held that position until 1950.
On October 5, 1959, the city contracted with the King County Library System for staff and materials. A new 4,200 square foot library, co-owned by the City and KCLS, was planned for the corner of Fourth and Titus. One house needed to be removed from the site, and it was burned to the ground by the Kent Fire Department for firefighting practice on April 22, 1959.
On June 23, 1969, the Kent News-Journal
reported a new record for the library: that day 1,154 items were checked out.
After a library bond issue was passed, the library at Fourth and Titus was expanded to 15,000 square feet and opened on October 21, 1973. Library board suggestions for improvements for 1975 included a recommendation that the library serve coffee to its customers once a week to enhance public relations. The Kent community continued to grow, and a consultant was hired to develop a plan based on this reported growth. A 25,000 square foot building was recommended for the downtown area.
The site of the Sea-Kent Cold Storage Plant at the corners of First and Second at Smith Street was selected for the new library. The groundbreaking ceremony was held on October 20, 1988. The plant was demolished; but nobody suspected that the soil was frozen down to 24 feet, requiring permafrost technology to thaw the ground. The technique of drilling holes into the soil and allowing ground water to seep into them speeded up the thawing process. Fill dirt reinforced the land, and pilings were driven more than 30 feet into the ground to secure a firm foundation. The new 22,500 square foot Kent Library opened in September, 1991. Residents of the city voted to annex to the King County Library System in 1993.
The library's interior has been updated several times since opening. In 2009, a major re-model included enlargement of the meeting rooms and general refurbishment of the building.

"I use my CMA body of knowledge every day. It comes naturally in the role of CFO because I need to look at things from many different angles, not just from the financial perspective. Management accounting skills are very much in demand as foreign and local companies reach out from the local marketplace and into more global arenas. The CMA body of knowledge is very valuable in this regard." John K. Lau, CMA Chief Financial Officer WesTrac China
"Don't just blindly follow the CPA track. More than 80% of accounting professionals wind up working in industry, so be aware of the non-public accounting opportunities. The big CPA firms sponsor everything on campus, so it's easy to think they're the only game in town. They're not." Paula Riemer, CMA, CPA Senior Financial Analyst The Martin-Brower Co., LLC
"I tell my students: taking the CMA exam is something you can do even before graduation. It gives you and your potential employer evidence that you're well prepared and well qualified. The CMA sets you apart from others who have a college degree alone, and it's something that is recognized and respected by a lot of potential employers." Christine McKeag, CMA, CPA Assistant Dean Schroeder Family School of Business Administration University of Evansville, Indiana
"The fact that I had recently completed the exam definitely came up in my interviews. It was a strong selling point that I think helped to set me apart. Pursuing my CMA shows not only that I have a specific skills set but also that I was able to prepare for the exam and accomplish a goal." Amy White, CMA Accounting Safeway, Inc.
"The CMA gave me the cohesion and validation that I needed. Because I come from India and my education and experience came from there, my background wasn't as easily recognized. It's been very helpful for me to have this designation, because it shows that I'm a person who understands all the things that are tested on the exam." Raj Bansal, CMA, CFM Assistant VP, Banking Specialist HSBC Bank
"The CMA credential is a spotlight directed to anyone working in accounting and finance. To be certified as a CMA means that I'm a more knowledgeable and experienced professional. In addition, the certification gives me more confidence and adds to my clients' trust, when they realize that they are dealing with a CMA." Dr. Samir M.A. Hassan, Ph.D., CMA, CFM
The CMA exams are computer-based and administered in hundreds of testing facilities worldwide. With three testing windows each year, you can sit for an exam part at a time and place convenient for you.
Here are the steps:
File an Exam Registration Form selecting the exam(s) you wish to take and pay the indicated fees.
Receive a Registration Acknowledgment Form which provides your authorization number(s), testing window(s), and the Instructions for Candidates.
Schedule your exam appointment(s) with Prometric.
Appear for your scheduled exam appointment(s) with the required identification documents.
Exams are administered through the worldwide network of Prometric Testing Centers and are available in accordance with local customs. There are many locations throughout the U.S. and internationally.
Exams are offered throughout the year:
To schedule exam appointments, visit www.prometric.com/ICMA.
To ensure your first choice of date, time, and location is available, it is best to schedule your appointment at least four weeks in advance. All exam appointments must be scheduled at least 72 hours in advance of the exam date. Please note if you reschedule your appointment within 30 days of your appointment date you will incur a $50 rescheduling fee. Appointments cannot be rescheduled to another testing window. Once you are registered, you must take the exam part during your assigned testing session. If for any reason you are unable to schedule an exam appointment during the assigned testing window, you will need to pay for a new registration.
If you are unable to keep a scheduled exam appointment at Prometric, you must cancel 72 hours prior to your appointment date. To cancel an exam appointment, call Prometric at (800) 479-6370, Monday through Saturday, or go to www.prometric.com/ICMA. If you do not comply with this cancellation policy, you will be considered a "no-show" and will need to reregister with ICMA and pay the new registration fee. If you cancel an exam appointment you must reschedule in the same testing window.
After 30 days from the date of registration, examination fees are not refundable. Within 30 days of the registration date, an examination fee may be refunded if no test appointment has been set. A $25 processing fee will be deducted from the refund. We do not offer extensions of exam parts; if you purchase this registration, you must sit in this testing window for which you purchased a registration.
If you purchase both parts 1 and 2 for the same testing window, you are eligible for a $100 discount. To receive the discount, you are required to take both exams in the same testing window. If you are unable to, and you request a refund of one part within 30 days of purchase, you will receive a refund of $255.00. After 30 days, there are no refunds. (Refund calculation: $660 paid, less $380 for the exam part you plan to take, less $25 processing fee equals a refundable amount of $255.)
An exam part may be taken only once in a testing window (e.g., Part 1 may be taken only once within the January/February testing window). All exam retakes require a new registration along with payment of appropriate fees.
All CMA candidates have three years to complete the CMA program, including Part I and Part II of the exam. The time period will begin with the date of your entry into the CMA program. If you do not complete the two-part exam within three years, credit for the part passed will expire and you will have to retake the exams.

The duration of pregnancy from conception to birth is called gestation. The length of gestation in dogs is normally 61 to 63 days.
While most dogs will have an uneventful pregnancy, sometimes problems occur that may necessitate early birth or a veterinarian-assisted birth (such as a caesarian section). For instance, toy breeds that are bred with larger dogs may have puppies that are too big to pass through the mother's birth canal; bulldogs may have complications because they have large heads relative to the size of the birth canal; and death of one or more fetuses can cause complications warranting early removal of the puppies.
If your dog is pregnant, or if you're planning to breed her, be sure to talk with your veterinarian so you know what to expect and what changes you may need to make in your dog's care and feeding.
