The Fight Hunger Bowl is played each December at AT&T Park in San Francisco, California. Since 2002, the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl has treated millions of fans to some of the most exciting bowl games in college football. The game matches up a choice from the Pac-12 Conference with BYU in 2013. Beginning in 2014, it will feature a team from the Big Ten and be played at the new Levi's Stadium in San Francisco. The Fight Hunger has been sponsored in the past by Kraft and Diamond Foods, Inc. It was previously called the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl, Emerald Bowl and the San Francisco Bowl. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Fight Hunger Bowl tickets.
The 2013 Fight Hunger Bowl will be played on Friday, December 27 at 6:30 PM between the BYU Cougars and the Washington Huskies. Check back soon for a preview of the 2013 Fight Hunger Bowl.
In the 2012 Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl, the Arizona State Sun Devils defeated the Navy Midshipmen 62-28. Arizona State came out to a 21-0 lead after the first quarter and never looked back, led by Marion Grice on offense. The running back had 159 rushing yards and 2 TDs to spur his naming as offensive MVP. Will Sutton took the honors on defense. The attendance at AT&T Park was 34,172.
Check out our Fight Hunger Bowl Preview History page for previews of previous Fight Hunger Bowl games.
The Fight Hunger Bowl is held at AT&T Park, home of the San Francisco Giants. It's located just south of downtown San Francisco in the SoMa (South of Market) neighborhood. It also was the home of the Cal Golden Bears in 2011 and the San Francisco Demons of the short-lived XFL.
The team benches are both on the same side, in front of sections A through H, which is usually right field at AT&T Park. Field Level sections 122 through 129 also offer a great view from the other sideline. Sections in the 130s are behind the end zone and 136-141 are bleacher seats.
This is the club level of the park, and unlike the field level sections has alphanumeric rows. Most sections will go from row A through M, unless there is wheelchair accessible seating instead of the last few rows of the section.
The first few rows of these sections that go all around the park are called "View Box" and are alphanumerically numbered. After that, the sections are called View Reserved and are back to numbered rows.
Pier 39 is a must for anyone in town for the game. You can get a great view of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz, as well as world-class dining and the Aquarium of the Bay to get a good look at the otters SF is famous for. There's also Golden Gate Park and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
We'd suggest taking the BART to Embarcadero Station. Muni Metro Streetcar service to the park is available daily on the T-Third. Fans can transfer from any Metro line to streetcars serving the ballpark at Embarcadero station – look for trains headed to Mission Bay, Caltrain or Sunnydale and get off at the Second Street/Ballpark Station.
The 2008 Emerald Bowl was a classic that had the Cal Golden Bears beat the Miami Hurricanes 24-17. Cal RB Jahvid Best was named MVP after his 186-yard performance. Best scored the game's first two touchdowns to give Cal a lead they would not give back.
Colin Kaepernick led his Nevada Wolfpack to the 2011 Fight Hunger Bowl win, while Matt Barkley took the USC Trojans to a 20-13 win over Boston College. It's one of the newer bowls, so you can be sure even more superstars will grace the field in the upcoming years.

The battle in Massachusetts between Sen. Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren for U.S. Senate is locked in a dead heat, two polls released this week indicated.
One poll, from Western New England University, showed Warren edging Brown 50%-45%. Another survey, from WBUR, showed Brown with the advantage, netting the support of 47% of likely Massachusetts voters compared to 43% for Warren. Margins in both polls were within the sampling error.
The two candidates are waging a bitter fight in the state, with Brown raising questions about Warren's claims to Native American heritage and Warren volleying back, asserting Brown has ties to big banks on Wall Street.
The two last debated October 1. At that event, both candidates stuck to messages of independence from their respective parties, as well as the barbs they've used on the campaign trail and in television ads.
"I vote about 50 percent with my party and about 50 percent with the Democratic Party," Brown said at the debate, held at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell. "That's a lot different than what Professor Warren would do."
Sitting next to Brown at a table on stage, Warren took issue with the senator's self-portrayal as a bipartisan lawmaker.
Asked, however, whether she felt she could work with any current Republican members of the Senate, Warren named only retiring Sen. Dick Lugar of Indiana, who lost his seat in a heated primary battle earlier this year.
Pressed further, the Harvard law professor said it would "depend on the issue" and pointed to her experience "working across the aisle" when she served as Obama's adviser during the formation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
The Western New England poll released Monday surveyed 440 likely voters by telephone between September 28 and October 4, and the sampling error was plus or minus 4.7 percentage points. WBUR's poll surveyed 501 likely voters by telephone October 5-7, and the sampling error was plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.

I have a few ideas for a company, and plan to get started sometime this fall. I know of an accelerator that focuses on this vertical, and I have contacts there so reaching out to them would be pretty easy. Here are my questions/concerns.
Exit Strategy: I don't really want one. I want to start a company and work there for a long time. Will I get squeezed into selling to reward investors?
IP Leakage: A few entrepreneurial friends have been burned by people taking their ideas & running with them. Since this is a vertical specific accelerator, they have deep contacts in the industry. I have some concern that they'll run with my ideas.
Funding is good, but I think the biggest up-side would be the publicity and the contacts within this industry. I'm sure to get this off the ground much faster with their help, but there's a cost. I guess the core of my concern is that going through an accelerator feels like I'm giving up control. I'm not sure if that's warranted or paranoia.
Anyone here have experience with accelerators that they can share?

As you may know, Cubicle Seven has greatly reduced the number of its publishing partners at the start of October 2013. Virtually all partners who co-branded d100 related products are no longer with them. Cakebread & Walton have already stated what they intended to do with their product lines once "free" of CB7. Alephtar had a different approach as stated in this Alephtar public announcement.
As you can see, we plan to keep everything "in print" and "available in the shops" as well as in PDF and for direct sale, although at present there is one title not immediately available. The new partner (who is not new at all, as he is Good Ol' Angus formerly of CB7) will grant us this opportunity at its best. It is also worth mentioning that Chronicle City is also co-producing other cool D100 stuff such as Achtung! Cthulhu.

On every online checkout process that I can think of the steps order is:
- You fill in you details (click next)
- you get your order details confirmed (click next)
- you click that you have read the terms and conditions and complete the process
However, during a current process redesign a business manager has asked me if the "I have read the T&Cs" be moved to the previous step so that the final step simply becomes a matter of a static page of the details previsouly filled in and click to complete.
Now, the fact that nobody else does it this way makes me nervious! Can anybody give me any reasons why this is a bad idea.
Emma Lowry
eCommerce Strategic Development Manager - Global at Electrocomponents / RS Components

Hi Tracy,
T&C are traditionally on the very last step so that is what customers are used to, it's a clear flag that the next button you click submits/confirms the order. Therefore you run the risk of confusing customers into thinking that this earlier step is the final page before confirmation - and then not proceed any further.
Customers may realise that not all details have been filled in, but nowadays there are so many 'express' checkouts that reduced length of checkout with saved details is not that unusual. May not happen - but my fear would be early inadvertant abandonment leading to lost orders and confused customers when nothing turns up.

Ohioans to Stop Executions and other human rights groups are asking Gov. John Kasich to halt any further executions of inmates until the Ohio Supreme Court completes its review of the state's death penalty process.
The groups, which include the Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center (IJPC) in Cincinnati, say the U.S. Supreme Court has denied a petition by the Ohio Attorney General's Office to review an August 2011 ruling by the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. That means the exoneration of Death Row inmate Joe D'Ambrosio is upheld.
Amid the recent controversy about possibly adding more publicly subsidized housing for the poor in Green Township, local Republicans will hold a special forum tonight to discuss methods for blocking the expansion.
In 1908, the automobile was considered nothing more than a rich man's plaything. The technology existed but could not yet be applied on a large scale or made affordable. Soon, Henry Ford supplied those missing parts and, with some outside help, transformed the 20th Century.
In 2010, U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown and the rest of Ohio's congressional delegation have a rare chance to vault us into a position of global economic leadership by passing a comprehensive clean energy and climate bill.
An anti-abortion group is defending the claims it makes on billboards criticizing Congressman Steve Driehaus (D-Price Hill), but comments from a prominent Catholic bishop appears to support Driehaus' stance.
As Cincinnati Archbishop Dennis Schnurr and other Catholic officials speak out publicly against a new federal rule involving free birth control, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) defends the switch and says the criticism is misguided.
Last month the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — known informally as "ObamaCare" — would require nearly universal coverage of contraception.
When it comes to debating policy issues, most people will tend to respect their opponents more if they at least use verifiable facts when making their arguments and not outlandish statements that are easily shredded.
Such is the case with Hamilton County Republican Party Chairman Alex Triantafilou and his attacks on U.S. Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-Westwood) over the recent "cap and trade" bill that seeks to limit carbon dioxide emissions.
Just a few weeks after leaving office, ex-Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner is trying to raise awareness about a political action committee (PAC) she helped create while campaigning last year for the U.S. Senate nomination.
Courage PAC is designed to increase grassroots advocacy and citizen activism on several issues, and perform a watchdog role on Ohio government now that Republicans fill most statewide offices.

Weight loss: Gain control of emotional eating
Find out how emotional eating can sabotage your weight-loss efforts, and get tips to get control of your eating habits.
By Mayo Clinic staffSometimes the strongest cravings for food happen when you're at your weakest point emotionally. You may turn to food for comfort — consciously or unconsciously — when you're facing a difficult problem, stress or just looking to keep yourself occupied.
But emotional eating can sabotage your weight-loss efforts. Emotional eating often leads to eating too much, especially too much of high-calorie, sweet, fatty foods. But the good news is that if you're prone to emotional eating, you can take steps to regain control of your eating habits and get back on track with your weight-loss goals.
The connection between mood, food and weight loss
Emotional eating is eating as a way to suppress or soothe negative emotions, such as stress, anger, fear, boredom, sadness and loneliness. Both major life events and the hassles of daily life can trigger negative emotions that lead to emotional eating and disrupt your weight-loss efforts. These triggers may include:
- Unemployment
- Financial pressure
- Health problems
- Relationship conflicts
- Work stress
- Fatigue
Although some people actually eat less in the face of strong emotions, if you're in emotional distress you may turn to impulsive or binge eating — you may rapidly eat whatever's convenient, without even enjoying it.
In fact, your emotions may become so tied to your eating habits that you automatically reach for a treat whenever you're angry or stressed without stopping to think about what you're doing.
Food also serves as a distraction. If you're worried about an upcoming event or stewing over a conflict, for instance, you may focus on eating comfort food instead of dealing with the painful situation.
Whatever emotions drive you to overeat, the end result is often the same. The emotions return, and you may also now bear the additional burden of guilt about setting back your weight-loss goal. This can also lead to an unhealthy cycle — your emotions trigger you to overeat, you beat yourself up for getting off your weight-loss track, you feel bad, and you overeat again.

JEFF TIEDEMAN: Vinegar — with a kick
Americans discover the joys of using balsamic variety.
I'm not sure how and when my dad developed his taste for vinegar. But what I do know is that he liked the acidic liquid with a variety of foods. And as a consequence, I received my vinegar baptism at a fairly young age.
Just about every way I remember Dad using vinegar he passed on to me. (I certainly am my father's son.)
For example:
— In the summer, I still love to put garden onions and radishes in a bowl of vinegar. (Of course, you have to make crosscuts in both of them so the vinegar is more readily absorbed.)
— On the occasions I've had head cheese, a sprinkle of vinegar — with a little salt and pepper — has been the order of business. (My cousin, Gordy, used to make the best homemade head cheese; now my choices are limited to store-bought varieties.)
— And the cabbage that's contained in my version of a New England boiled dinner wouldn't be the same without a dab or two of vinegar. The same for homemade bean soup.
My affinity for vinegar had me go as far as even putting it on potato chips, trying to replicate that Canadian favorite, before they became available in the States.
Always a mainstay in pickle-making, vinegar's popularity has skyrocketed in the U.S. Cooks not only are using it in salad dressings but also to deglaze pans, marinate meats and add tang to vinaigrettes, sauces and desserts.
And the vinegar most of them are turning to is balsamic.
While Italians have been relishing the rich and slightly sweet flavor of balsamic vinegar for centuries, Americans only started enjoying it the past two decades. Today, it is one of the most popular condiments available in American grocery stores.
Unlike most vinegar, which start as fruit juice or wine, balsamic originates with unfermented crushed trebbiano grapes. Authentic balsamic vinegar, which come from Modena or Reggio Emilia, towns in northern Italy, is aged in wooden barrels for 12 to 25 years. Prices in specialty stores can top $100 for a small bottle. (The highest-quality is labeled "condimento" or "tradizionale." Some professional chefs keep it in spray bottles and spritz it on foods.)
Inexpensive imitations of the traditional balsamic are widely available in most supermarkets, right next to the cider and wine vinegars. This is the kind commonly used for salad dressing together with oil. (A low-grade imitation balsamic can be made by adding brown sugar and caramel coloring to red wine vinegar. This mimics the sweetness of a balsamic, but you probably will be disappointed.)
While we've had a bottle or two of the expensive balsamic vinegar at home, it's a little too pricey for salads. So, Therese generally buys a thick, cheaper version at T.J. Maxx, which works just fine. I also like to use it when grilling portabella mushrooms on the Foreman. Most recently, I made some balsamic-glazed pork chops.
One of our favorite soups (pasta and bean) also contains balsamic vinegar, as well as spinach and horseradish. (See recipe at www.grandforksherald.com/event/tag/group/ Features/tag/food/.)
The surge in popularity of the dark, syrup-like balsamic vinegar is not only because of its remarkable taste but also because of its health benefits, which include reduced risks of heart diseases, cancer and other infectious diseases as well as decelerateing the aging process, controls diabetes and assists in digestion.
I bet my dad would have liked it.

What are the drawbacks of narcotics? What narcotics are in common use in the U.S. for relieving labor pain?Narcotics (also known as opioids) popular in the U.S. include Sublimaze (fentanyl), Stadol (butorphanol), Nubain (nalbuphine), and Demerol (meperidine, also known as pethidine).What are the effects of narcotics on labor pain?Narcotics dull pain.How are narcotics administered?Narcotics can be injected into a muscle (usually the hip) or into a port on IV (intravenous) tubing.A new alternative is patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). With this technique, you can give yourself a small dose of IV medication when you need it by pushing a button. A lockout mechanism keeps you from going beyond a preset dose. A nasal spray version of butorphanol (Stadol NS), which was developed to treat migraine pain, is used in some maternity settings. The manufacturer's "label" for this drug, which has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, does not recommend use in labor as it has not been studied for this purpose.

As one of the largest cities in the Treasure State surrounded by the beauty of scenic forests and mountainous terrain, the capital city of Helena is luring many people to relocate there. At the cross section of Interstate 15 and U.S. Highway 287, Helena apartments for rent are the perfect option for residents who want to have all the perks of mountain life, but still have a connection to the surrounding cities of central Montana.
With its small-town way of life, breathtaking landscapes, welcoming and friendly atmosphere and loads of outdoor recreation, it is not surprising that this mountain town saw a nine percent increase in population from 2000 to 2010, according to City-Data.
Like many other cities in Montana, Helena got its start in the mining industry; however, the city was founded by accident. Four men from Georgia came to Montana in hopes of discovering riches after hearing rumors of gold in the western part of the U.S. in 1864. The "Four Georgians" (an affectionate term coined by locals) finally found their gold in Helena after nearly giving up and heading back South. In just a few years the city became one the biggest western hubs, and eventually connected to the rest of the country after the Union Pacific Railroad came into the area. Although the mining shafts have been closed for many years, Helena still maintains its presence as a major distribution and transportation hub in Big Sky Country. A unique capital city, the city holds dear to its past with many preservation efforts, but looks to its future as one of the business epicenters in the Western states.
The largest attraction in the area by far is Helena National Forest. Although this expansive park begins in the city, there are nearly 1 million acres of stunning landscapes that attract mountaineers, hikers and thrill seekers from across the country every year for outdoor recreation. Home to the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail, this park offers stunning views of untouched earth that Lewis and Clark passed through many years ago. Everything from hunting to snowmobiling is offered at this beautiful Montana green space.

BOSTON -- A Dracut woman involved in a tax-evasion scheme for a former Chelmsford paving company was sentenced Thursday to six months of home confinement and six months probation.
Judith Kelleher incorporated Mass. Paving in 1993 with William Belleville, a Groton resident. From then until 2006, the two withheld federal income taxes from their employees' weekly pay but failed to pay that money to the IRS, according to the office of U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz.
Belleville was sentenced last week to 18 months in prison and ordered to repay $460,000, the amount of taxes he withheld. He will also have one year of supervised release after his jail sentence.
The restitution, or repayment, issue is still pending with Kelleher, according to the IRS Boston office.
Kelleher was 53 and Belleville was 58 at the time of their indictment in July 2011. Both were charged with conspiracy and willful failure to collect and pay payroll taxes, and Belleville was also charged with tax evasion.

Really Like Mitt
By Mary
from Columbia, SC
About Me Midrange Shopper
Comments about Lava Mitt:
First time I used the mitt I was a little hesitate about grabbing hold of the hot container. Worked great!! Mitt did not even feel warm!!
useful in many ways
By KC the cook of the house
from Small Iowa Town
About Me Budget Shopper
I bought two, and use for taking things out of the oven, getting canning jars out of boiling water(did not feel the heat at all), and we use for trivets on a table. I've used it to keep my mixing bowl from skittering across the counter while hand mixing. The pattern on them makes them nonslip. I even like the red color. They were on sale so ordered four more to put some in camper, too.

About Me High-end Shopper
Tried this out this first day - Worked as described.
Best I have found!!!
By yellow rose
from Tpa, Fl
I have bought & returned others because of fit or because they had some fabric that would get soiled. This glove is a great fit for men or women.(I bought one for my brother as he loved mine & was always burning himself-No More!))
Works okay, a little bit awkward
By Barbara
from Chicago, IL
This works just as promised. Completely protects against heat and spills when taking hot dishes from the over. My main complaint is that it quite big and a little bit awkward. Maybe they should offer a large and small size?
Hot Stuff
By Pat the Cat
from Maryland
Performs as advertised. Buy them
By DeeJays
from Owatonna, MN
They do what they say as far as no heat coming thru, but are very cumbersome.

By FLORIDA COOKEY
from FLORIDA'S WEST COAST
This mitt offers a safe way to move cooking pans and sheets in/out/around a hot oven.

Awesome Product
By Bren
from Pittsburgh, PA
Received my order in time for Thanksgiving. I had 10 people for dinner and a lot of food. Everyone who helped and used these mitts loved them. They are flexible enough to get a good grip on a variety of pans. They are long enough to protect your arms. I didn't feel any "heat" at all thru them. I ordered 4 more for gifts.

A partner who cooks is a treat indeed
Thanks to all of you who commented and/or e-mailed me with suggestions and tips on cooking. And to give myself a little credit, I can boil an egg! (Thanks, Rich!)
Fortunately for me, I have a partner who cooks. And cooks very well! We have unbelievable dinners on the most random nights. An exotic Mediterranean chicken dish on an average, run-of-the-mill Wednesday. Or grilled salmon with a homemade dry spice rub, grilled corn on the cob, salad with strawberries and mangoes on an ordinary Monday. Last night, for instance, we had a Thai dish with tofu, peppers, zucchini (from the market downtown!), rice noodles, cilantro and Thai basil. It had just the right spice and flavor, a tough balance to strike when cooking Thai food. I've got leftovers for lunch.

daddy ganymedes and roland vocoder
were loitering with intent to loiter
the missiles aimed at the west were gently humming
the endless day of man was ending
the evening would bring bats and gliding rodents
the vegetation was poised to breakthrough
the moon seemed impossibly large
the magic realist was writing a book
in his book
he resurrects erskine from the dead
and has him upon some weird adventures
spooky stuff best half forgotten
some fucked up olde wizard
a recreational necromancer
some beachside shaman with gold top mojo
some washed up bottled up energetic calamity
erskine in buenos aires and montevideo and sao paulo
oh erskine snort that pure 5 buck a gram coke
oh erskine sort out the orphans surrounding you everywhere
oh erskine visit ipanema and see the lovely girls
oh erskine fall in love with an incan princess
oh erskine lost in the andes 5 miles high
oh erskine meet the magic realist in his garden apartment
hes writing it all down
hes getting it all down
attended by five young graces
his lemurian crystal in a pocket over his heart
his melodic voice he speaks perfect english
conesuela cooking in the kitchen
cooking up a storm
the magic realist such a host of hosts
offers you tapas erskine
offers you wine
offers you time
offers you a line
and another line on the next page
when people read about you in spanish
when people see your handsome face in print
do i really have to die erskine asks
and daddy ganymedes laughed out loud
englishman he said
are you fuckinga kidding me?
and roland vocoder said ahh........
and the magic realist who was writing this story
looked up at his characters in wonder
for truly they were there in magic reality
and the wind blew
and the apartment was filled with the scent of jasmine
and all tiny things jingled in their places
the frogmask licked its lips
oh horror the frog has sharp white little teeth
erskine reaches up to touch it
and the amphibious monstrosity bites
you fool says the magic realist
conesuela come here he calls
conesuela the most beautiful woman on earth
blonde haired darkskinned browneyed
a palomino of a woman
her breasts are shaped like abundance
her mouth is generous
her waist is curved like an expensive guitar
her teeth are ivory oblongs gleaming
her eyes are the history of love
her hands are like graceful herons
her ears are tiny and faerylike
her forehead is slightly frowning
her eyes are slightly narrowed
her neck is graceful long swanlike
her shoulders are straight
her thighs are voluptuous
her calves are milkfed
her ankles are slender and tenderly arrayed
her feet are brown and broad
her toenails are bloodred
her stomach is flat like a great plain
her ribs encage her beating heart
her mind is quiet
her mind is deep
it remembers for thousand years
it remembers in and out of lifes lives
its constant
her voice is soft husky
her words are well chosen
her winged words fly into any hearts now
her mornings in the ocean
her mornings in the oceans bed
her tea she sips in mint condition
she bathes in a lagoon with the fish
she gently handles the curious snakes
she touches them so gently so humanly
she touches the snakes with their patterns
she lets them smell her skin
she submits to their trespasses
she rolls over in black satin water
down by the holiday houses quiet in this season
she holds her breath
and spits out the surrounding sea
she is there right now
go there
go to her
go erskine
go magic realist
go the cats
go the rats
go the mountains
go the sun and moon
go to her
go to her

Another installment of Earthed, I like it. Would love an audience with the Magic Realist, perhaps another life, another chance, another reality.
My brother's friend, who came with him from Hawaii to see my father off, brought the nicest island herbal gift; which I will enjoy tonight. Memories will flow and ebb from the wicker sofa, iPod and headphones set to the TB.

a friend sent this link to me today ...i'm still trying to figure out who and what and when and why .....
and obviously i'm behind here - not knowing erskine or the magic realist, but i do know latin america, and i am woman in all her mysterious, fucked up glory as well as mermaid and panther and Selene and a trapeze artist and of course woman handled snake - they were best friends before the betrayal .....
this is somewhat like that old anxiety dream: show up for the test - everyone else knows the answers - and i've not been to one class ....
sigh. i'm intrigued. but not sure if i'll return ....(as she wanders away, shaking her head in bemusement ...) - 9:49 am
'Go the cats' indeed...i fully concur!
Can't help but think the TB's presence earlier in the year in our fair city opposite 'K' Park was but an omen of the good times ahead...

But don't really want to give up four fingers in your big title for it and I'm talking about -- you're in lot.
Wall is here to rescue you from DC all things digital with Walt Mossberg the personal technology columnist for the Wall Street -- -- Hello all -- you have by -- many euros how many euros or four fingers in your big -- I expect.
I've given it has stated here our heads up about 650.
Who couldn't agree on -- -- -- date and so most of these funds cost 200 boxer and the iPhone or anything else -- you found what it's not too bad for fifty -- is that right.
Fifty bucks and actually if you buy it online at Wal-Mart it's free.
Little two year contract and if you go to a Wal-Mart store it's.
And get this eighteen dollars and 88 cents I have no idea they think.
Came up -- that but it but T-Mobile cells for fifty bucks and it was designed to be sold for fifty bucks and it's interesting and not only -- of the price but.
It's a Windows Phone which as you know is the kind of newest.
Challenger to android and apple and kind of -- -- got a very late started doing this but it's a different looking operating system and Nokia is their main hardware partner for Windows Phone and they have and so this phone is the first.
Of the Nokia windows phones to be sold in the US.
A bike carrier it's T-Mobile.
So I took a look at I said to myself -- that let's take a look at this is -- what you get fifty bucks.
And the answer is it's not.
Nearly as good as an iPhone or Samsung galaxy or some of the elite ones that do sell.
For a couple hundred bucks but if you're moving into a Smartphone for the first time.
You're on a budget or if for some reason you do you -- you really are anxious to.
Have it -- -- experience with Windows Phone without laying out a lot of money I think it's a good value it's a pretty decent found.
Want to -- I think the exact phrase -- used in your column what is it missing.
Because that's what people are gonna ask right from right -- -- so it's miss -- does not have a front camera.
Most of these Smartphones now come with that standard.
So that you can do video Skype for some other video calling so it doesn't have a front camera.
The rear camera is pretty mediocre I would say.
It's -- -- -- it's.
It's it's not fantastic he can't be used.
As a hot spot.
You know a lot of these phones you can actually create a little a little Wi-Fi network with the font carrier laptops and things around you.
This doesn't have that in.
It only has half the memory.
The basic.
Entry level versions of all these more standard and familiar.
Smartphones -- eight gigabytes.
Could I should also I should also -- when that while there are many many good qualities in my opinion to Windows Phone as the system.
It only has about 10% of the available lapse that apple has and -- and of course Google has a lot more to.
But could this be the start of some sort of a job and have a Smartphone pricing war has to go back to the earlier point in every found same pricing you what you -- -- -- the sense on phone dimension is -- a box basically I know if you tried that.
-- -- more but to take 200 dollars you sign up for a couple of years and you take your phone is this the start of something different.
Plus it's a great point and and better but I would point -- it's not the start.
This has been happening quietly without much notice.
Now for a little while for you know I would say a year -- more than a year there's a bunch of the android phones that.
Are you a little older or again have fewer features and they're selling for.
-- About a hundred bucks there's a couple itself for in this fifty dollar -- you -- even less.
And even apple which you don't think of as low priced and which really establish this 199 umbrella.
Price umbrella you know they've they put the iPhone four which is not that old and looks exactly like the iPhone four -- That's now available it all three US carriers for 99 bucks.
And the iPhone 3GS which is from 2009.
But runs the latest software is free.
Within eighteen -- contracts written there in the game so I think this is an important trend of trying to push Smartphones.
-- lots of web capabilities and so forth.
Down in -- price bands were more people can afford them.
-- three -- three all -- Wal-Mart wal thank you so much it was great to see it was always welcome back we see you're glad to have you back on the east us.
Thank you Walt Mossberg it's right on the -- -- Consumer Electronics Show and.

text: The Australian dental community recognises that oral health is an important part of quality of life. There is a shared concern of dentists beyond the confines of national boundaries. This embraces the growing health care needs of Indigenous Australians, those of the Asia Pacific and Oceania regions and the world generally. One of the factors in improving the quality of health care will be to link dental professionals to events, organisations, professional activities and volunteer opportunities around the world. It is with this aim that Federal Council has established a Special Purpose Committee on Dental Volunteers to assist our members who provide volunteer dental outreach programmes. We hope that you will share Federal Council's commitment to dental volunteering and respond with interest.

Police Stormed Temple Mount, Violence in Judea & Samaria
Israeli police broke into Temple Mount after Muslim worshippers, at the completion of their prayers, began throwing stones at the security forces at the site's Mughrabi Gate. No one was injured. Forces pushed the stone throwers back with stun grenades.
There have been ongoing disturbances in several areas of Judea and Samaria on Friday. At a Hebron checkpoint some 60 Arabs have been rioting, throwing stones at security forces. Several dozen Arabs have been rioting in other parts of Hebron as well.
Today marks the 1994 killing of 29 Arab worshipers and the wounding of another 125 inside the Cave of the Patriarch by Jewish-American doctor Baruch Goldstein.
In Bitunya, near Camp Ofer prison, some 30 Arabs are throwing stones at security forces. Four Arab terrorists are on a hunger strike inside the prison.
Ayman Sharawna, Jaafar Azzidine and Tareq Qaadan were transferred from Ramle prison to hospitals in Israel for medical tests, according to the Ma'an news agency.
Azzidine and Qaadan, who were taken to the Assaf Harofeh Medical Center, have been on hunger strike for 87 days in protest at their administrative detention, without charge or trial.
Sharawna went on hunger strike on July 1, 2012, but briefly stopped on Dec. 23 after believing there were developments in his case, prisoner rights group Addameer says. He restarted the strike in January.

I do not think the verb "stormed" should be used.
Besides recalling "stormtroopers", it's the verb the Arabs use to describe entry of non-Muslims to the site.
wish someone would put a bomb under that mosque, don't the arabs have their own holy city in mecca? why the greed to have two sacred places. its ugly anyway.
The Temple Mount is meant for the Jews! May the G-d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob be their defense! and that speedily!

A lot of coverage has been given to mobile phones recently, especially with Google's Nexus One looming, the ongoing battle of platforms and the continuing onslaught of the iPhone.
I've already opined that although 2010 "won't exactly be the year of mobile, but it will be a big year for mobile", so with this in mind, marketers need to be thinking about what kind of options are open to them in this rapidly developing area.
But understanding and navigating mobile marketing can be a bit of a minefield. I caught up with Zoe Sands from Cisco to discuss the various issues within this often complex area.

Guys, I am new in this but I will start with a strike. I believe that every multi media company that plan to keep its followers(Clients) happy make sure their product can work with the previous generation of this product. Windows does that and even Apple specially with Iphones. Sony tried it at the very beggining of PS3 production then instead of improving the product with new feaures, these guys downgraded the PS3. Result the new generation of PS3 only feature according to me is that it doesn't heat quickly. Except that this is just a gaming machine on the market with the main purpose to rip us. What I understand is that PS3 is all about softwares and this make it easy for Sony to provide us with an upgrade that allow us to play our PS2 games on the PS3. Blueray machines plays DVD. we are getting ride of our old dvd's not because our Bluray's can't play them but because of the space. Why do Sony doesn't do that? The answer is clear they want to rip us.
I suggest that unless Sony provide us with this upgrade, we stop buying their products. I have no intention to keep wasting hardly earned money just because of a company greed.
Pass the word guys and let us see what Sony will do with this.
Thank for all of you who will understand this as I do.

I bought the PS3 as a gaming console as I did with the 360, Wii and all the consoles before them!

Not compatibility with everything but with its own previous product. This is one of the most importatn aspect of loyalty-I mean having the intention to keep most of the regular customers satisfied. By the way I understand that some of us are enough loaded to own a cinema room in their Haciendas. What about people with less space? Should we keep all our old machines just because of compatibility issues?

Sony decided to cut manufacturing costs and make PS3 more affordable by taking the BC enabling hardware chips out. It's not like the majority of consumers need that feature. Software only emulation of PS2 games on PS3 is very hard - memory being one of the issues. You need a relatively powerful PC to run a fluid emulation of PS2 or Gamecube games and PS3 is pretty old tech by now.

SLOW DOWN FOR WET WEATHER: About 25% of all car crashes occur in bad weather, and most of those occur when the pavement is wet. Many drivers recognize that snow and ice can cause them to lose control of their cars, but most underestimate the dangers that rain can pose. For this reason, more people travel in wet weather, and do not realize the need to adjust to lower speeds when traveling on wet roads. Following cars less closely is also a strategy that provides drivers with more time to react if something dangerous occurs in their path.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING A CRASH? The laws of physics say that an object in motion will stay in motion, with the same speed and direction, unless it is acted upon by an outside force. So if you are traveling at 60 MPH and your car hits a solid wall and comes to an immediate stop, your body will continue going at 60 MPH until it is stopped by, say, a seatbelt, airbag, or, at worst, a windshield. If the car has a rigid body, the rapid deceleration caused by the impact will produce injuries and fatalities. Because the stopping time is only a split second, the force on the passengers is very high.
The American Meteorological Society and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc., contributed to the information contained in the TV portion of this report.

Liberty and Freedom
Let me explain my view on abortion this way.
Some senior citizens require extended care. Assume 50% of the US population, about the same percent which
support abortion, believes that caregivers should be able to decide if the seniors under their care should be
involuntarily killed if they become a burden or inconvenience.
Should there be a law allowing these caregivers the "Choice" of whether or not to terminate another's life?
Even if 99.9% believed it proper, killing others for your own convenience is wrong.You never have the moral right or authority to kill an individual you consider inconvenient to your lifestyle.
The same reasoning applies to unborn babies in the womb. The most innocent among us should be nurtured
and protected, rather than slaughtered on demand.
Our country is founded upon the principal that all men are "endowed by their creator with unalienable rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness."
Life is an unalienable right from God. Governments are instituted to secure these rights for everyone -especially
the most innocent and defenseless amongst us, the unborn.
Our society has been conditioned to view a baby in the womb as a "fetus", or mass of flesh, not as a human
baby. It's a misconception. At eight weeks after conception, the baby has a human form with a regular heart
beat. Its arms, fingers, toes, and all major organs are clearly forming. It's a baby, defenseless, protected within
its mother's womb. As time passes the baby geometrically evolves. By the end of the second trimester, the baby
moves, sleeps and wakes, has hair, fingernails, taste buds, skin - a fully developed, yet still evolving, human
It's not the baby's "choice" to be aborted. Quite the contrary, Life strives to survive.
A baby in the womb is an innocent and defenseless being totally dependent on its mother for protection and
sustenance. They do not want to die. Life strives to survive. Once born, the baby cries when it is hungry, cold,
or uncomfortable and is at peace when cared for.
Abortion is wrong. It goes against Christian-Judeo morality and the principals upon which our country was
Rather than aborting, unwanted babies should be brought to term, and then given up for adoption to desiring
parents. The long term solution to unwanted pregnancies is a re-dedication within our society to the time
honored values of pride, self respect, and fidelity.
I will not support any law allowing for the abortion of an unwanted or inconvenient baby. In the tragic event
when the physical health of the mother is in question, then the decision must be left to the parents.
Partial birth abortions are never justified and are nothing less than infanticide.
Peter Konetchy
May 2, 2010
No pro-life requirement, but don't call for help here if someone is attempting to take yours.
Mark, you said "I DO believe there should be a revision to the law." There was not a "law" to allow abortion or murder. There is nothing to be revised. Murder has always been unlawful, but when there are those in power that call good, evil and evil, good, some murder is allowed. You either choose to kill the people that get in your way, or you believe that all people have as much as a "right to life" as you do. Some murderers are arrested and tried for their crimes and some are treated as a special class of killers who have been given permission to disregard the law that states something like "thou shalt not kill".
Abortion is an issue of freedom. Freedom for those who can not protect themselves from the killers which would like to eliminate them before they have that chance to defend themselves.
The rest of your babbling does not warrant a comment or reply.
