D A+F Parking: Parking on OSU's campus is almost impossible to find and very expensive.
C A+F Weather: Ohio State University is located in central Ohio and has decent weather, but is not consistent. Tends to be hot in the summer, very cold in the winter.
B A+F Computers: OSU has a great IT department as well as a reliable wireless network on campus.
B A+F Overall Experience: I enjoyed my time at Ohio State, but I would not say that I am overly in love or obsessed with my university like others are.
B A+F Guys & Girls: There are a lot of people on OSU's campus and therefore a wide array of people to form social and personal relationships with.
B A+F Majors: There is a wide array of majors to choose from with many open options for classes and requirements to fulfill those majors.
C A+F Transportation: OSU is not a campus that was meant to have high traffic driving, nor is there ever much available parking on campus.
B A+F Scholarships: The process (and really for anything at OSU) is a bit of a headache, but it is usually taken care of eventually.
B A+F Campus Dining: There is a wide and diverse selection of campus dining options for students - not so much for visitors or those who come to campus to not eat in a dining hall or market.
C A+F Off-Campus Housing: Off Campus Housing is generally so-so. There are some nice places to live near campus, but you will definitely pay the price for them. Most houses and apartments are rough and not exactly up to high standards (due to the poor reality companies).
A A+F Greek Life: Greek Life is prominent at OSU (though not completely by numbers due to the large size of the student population).
B A+F Drug Safety: Overall, OSU has a good control on the alcohol and drug issues on campus. Because of its size, there is still a significant presence of both though.
B A+F Campus Housing: Not enough housing for more than the freshman class usually - I only stayed in the dorms for one year.
A A+F Diversity: The Ohio State University is very progressive with minority and diversity affairs and is something pushed forward daily.
B A+F Health & Safety: There were some robberies off campus but I never feel unsafe, and the health center is really convenient and friendly
B A+F Local Atmosphere: Columbus is a pretty big city with a lot of things to do
B A+F Computers: I don't know anyone who's had problems printing or using computer labs
A A+F Athletics: Go Bucks! Everyone loves varsity sports, especially football, and the games are so much fun
B A+F Guys & Girls: There are a lot of students so it's easy to find someone attractive
B A+F Academics: I like my major but I'm thinking of switching majors
B A+F Academics: The classes aren't too easy or too hard and the professors are usually interesting but there are a lot of large classes
Diversity: I don't know that much about diversity here but I haven't seen any discrimination personally
B A+F Drug Safety: A lot of people drink and some do drugs but there is no peer pressure
C A+F Off-Campus Housing: Houses and apartments get filled up really quickly

There is a reason the Buckeye Nation is considered to be so devoted; an overwhelming love for OSU is evident in student responses, and in the loyalty of alumni to their alma mater. Each person has his or her own reasons for loving the University, and there are quite a few of them. Some students feel that the academics are top-notch and have found exactly the programs they wanted; others lean toward the athletic success of the Buckeye teams, while some just feel that the friendships and bonds they have made are enough to make their tenure at OSU worthwhile. At any rate, everyone can agree that being a Buckeye creates a special bond between you and nearly 50,000 other students, which you will carry with you for the rest of your life.
Once you get past the sheer size of the University, it will really become a second home. After only a quarter of classes, you won't be able to cross the Oval without seeing someone you know. Ohio State is truly the smallest large university you will find. The people are known for their friendly attitudes, and alumni are scattered across the nation. If you choose to go to OSU, you're choosing a school with a name that's well known, both in the workplace and in the college community. Few students ever regret their time at Ohio State, and most consider their college experience to be among the best offered in the Big Ten and the country.

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A Visalia couple has been charged with the severe beating of a three-year-old boy.
Desie Horton, 29, and Trevor Bishop, 30, both pleaded not guilty to the charges they face in the case.
Bishop is charged with assault and felony child abuse. If convicted, he faces life in prison.
Visalia police believe Bishop beat the toddler last week at the home, he and Horton shared.
The child's mother is facing felony child abuse charges for failing to protect the boy, who remains in a coma and in critical condition.

The Holy Grail of Workouts!
There are two types of reality food shows on TV. The first features mouthwatering meals we wish we could eat right off our flat-screens. The second subjects us to gag-inducing footage of people wolfing down bull testicles, duck embryos, and puréed insects.
Is your kitchen more a) MasterChef or b) Fear Factor?
I'm sorry to say, the correct answer is probably B. Thanks to modern food processing techniques, manufacturers are allowing toxic and disease-promoting ingredients to find their way into our food, and in many cases, they've invented clever ways to keep them off the ingredient statement.
So with help from Rodale.com writer Leah Zerbe, I've narrowed down the most sordid supermarket selections for you. Read on for a countdown of the five grossest foods your grocer has to offer.

A little over a month ago, a few Drupal developers announced something new: A fork of Drupal called Backdrop. There's been quite a bit of talk about it, of course. While I don't plan to be using it myself, Backdrop has raised a number of valid points and criticisms of Drupal that are worth discussing.
The private variables debate is going around the PHP world again. Brandon Savage posted a pair of articles pointing out the perils of private variables, boiling down mostly to them making extension infesible or impossible. Anthony Ferrara replied with his own article, arguing that the real problem is using inheritance in the first place rather than composition. I figured I'd weigh in on my own blog rather than in a comment. :-)
As an academic matter, I agree with Anthony. Composition and interfaces are more flexible than inheritance. I've been preaching the interface gospel within Drupal almost as long as I've been preaching Dependency Injection.
As we begin a new year, it seems appropriate that the discussion of backward compatibility has come up yet again in Drupal. It's a perennial question, and you can tell when a new Drupal core version is ready for prime time when people start complaining about lack of backward compatibility. It's like clockwork.
However, most of these discussions don't actually get at the root issue: Drupal is architecturally incapable of backward compatibility. Backward incompatibility is baked into the way Drupal is designed. That's not a deliberate decision, but rather an implication of other design decisions that have been made.
Drupal developers could not, even if they wanted to, decide to support backward compatibility or "cleanup only" type changes in Drupal 8. It is possible to do so in Drupal 9. If we want to do that, however, then we need to decide, now, in Drupal 8, to rearchitect in ways that support backward compatibility. Backward compatibility is a feature you have to design for.
Earlier today, Dries committed a patch that adds two Symfony2 Components to Drupal: ClassLoader and HttpFoundation.
On its face it's a fairly simple patch; the new code in it is maybe a dozen lines. But it's an important part of a larger shift within Drupal to better embrace the modern web, on the server as well as the client.
As if on cue, the public vs. private debate has sprung up again within Drupal. The timing is fitting given my last blog post on programming language paradigms. Of course, property visibility is not a new debate, and the PHP community debates this subject from time to time (sometimes humorously).
What I believe is usually missing from these discussions, and what I hope to offer here, is a broader picture view of the underlying assumptions that lead to different conclusions about when different visibility is appropriate (if ever).
In short: It's the difference between procedural-think and object-think.
This article is also available in Serbo-Croatian
There has been much discussion of late in Drupal about Object-Oriented Programming. That's not really surprising, given that Drupal 7 is the first version that has really tried to use objects in any meaningful way (vis, as something other than arrays that pass strangely). However, too much of the discussion has boiled down to "OMG objects are inflexible so they're evil!" vs. "OMG objects are cool, yay!" Both positions are harmfully naive.
It is important for us to take a step back and examine why one particular programming paradigm is useful, and to do that we must understand what we mean by "useful".
Programming paradigms, like software architecture, have trade-offs. In fact, many of the same methods for comparing architectural designs apply just as well to language design. To do that, though, we need to take a step back and look at more than just PHP-style objects.
Warning: Hard-core computer science action follows. If you're a coder, I recommend getting a cup of $beverage
before continuing, as it could take a bit to digest although I've tried to simplify it as much as possible. There's fairly little Drupal-specific stuff here so hopefully it should be useful to any PHP developer.
Well, it's been long enough after DrupalCon for me to survive another conference and a business trip, so I finally have time to reflect.
(See below for slides from my sessions.)
Once again, I am slated to present general Object-Oriented techniques at DrupalCon. It's an important topic; sadly a large number of Drupalers don't really "get" OO programming, but Drupal 7 is starting to make heavy use of OO. There are also an enormous number of places in Drupal where a more Object-Oriented approach would make the code vastly cleaner, simpler, and faster, if only more people thought to approach it from that standpoint.
Of course, the question is how to target such a session. I don't want to talk over people's heads, but I also don't want to waste your time with "this is a mouse"-level material.
So, I put the question out to you, future DrupalCon SF attendees. What level of technical detail would be most useful to you?
Just to give everyone a heads up, I have made some changes to one of my sessions. Based on the feedback I received earlier, my session on Object-Oriented Drupal has been updated. It seems no one wanted to hear about the basics, as they already knew them. :-) I will instead be focusing on design patterns, OO design philosophy, and how it applies (or should apply) to Drupal. It's too late to get changes into the printed program, but I have updated the session page on the DC DC web site to reflect the new focus.
So if you were hoping for a session on basic PHP OOP syntax and concepts, um, sorry. If you're looking for an intermediate to advanced session on how to use OOP well, then this session is for you.
I'll see you in DC!
So we're a month away from DrupalCon DC 2009, and although the official schedule has not been published it seems likely from the preliminary schedule that my Objectifying Drupal session will be accepted. The basic idea is to help Drupal's mainly procedural army of developers get up to speed on object-oriented development, which has been gaining popularity in contrib (most notably the Views module) and will be in many parts of Drupal 7.
Of course, given how large an army of developers we have there is no one level of existing expertise I can target. There are entire multi-course college programs on OOP design, and I have an hour. :-) So, how about some preliminary feedback? What do you want to see in a one hour session on object-oriented code in Drupal?

If you've played a Monster Hunter game, you would naturally compare it to Gods Eater Burst. In both cases, you join your chums and do battle with gargantuan creatures that take away large chunks of your health with a single swipe of their massive tails, or with a single bite from their gnashing teeth. In between battles, you use monster bits and other items you've gathered to create new weapons or upgrade those already in your possession, in turn making it possible to take on even bigger, badder fiends. But while comparisons are inevitable, dismissing Gods Eater Burst as a mere clone would be doing this enjoyable game a disservice. Eerie, attractive environments make it a pleasure to stalk your ferocious targets, and being able to quickly switch between ranged and melee weapons grants your hunts intensity. Not every facet of this action/role-playing hybrid is a winner. A cumbersome camera and control scheme can get in the way, and the condensed structure will have you longing for more gameplay variety. These and other flaws notwithstanding, it's hard to deny the appeal of joining some real-world or computer-controlled comrades and cutting a roaring brute down to size.
6299945This game wouldn't be as fun if you had to pick on somebody your own size.None
Gods Eater Burst takes place on Earth, but it isn't an Earth you would recognize. The planet has been ravaged by mutant beasts called aragami, and an organization called Fenrir has made it its mission to wipe them from the planet. Fenrir's goals aren't always so noble and pure, however, and as the game progresses, you learn more about their scientific studies on the creatures that roam the land. At first, you aren't likely to be invested in the story, or in the role-playing archetypes that inhabit it. Among them are the overeager, histrionic adolescent; the sighing ingenue hiding a terrible secret (as all such characters must); and the faux-mysterious, spiky-haired sulk who keeps his teammates at arm's length. Each character is enthusiastically and inexpertly voiced by a cast that knows no subtlety, going heavy on the whimpers, chirps, and breathless line deliveries. Awkward characters aside, the plot takes enough twists and turns to get you interested in this world and its enigmas. Who is the gaunt, ghostly figure glimpsed on the battlefield? What is the meaning behind a newcomer's visions? What exactly is Fenrir looking for out in the howling wastes? The answers often lead to more intriguing questions--enough to see this tale to the end.
Those characters are the Gods Eaters, though irritatingly, while the game's subtitles all use the phrase "Gods Eater," the spoken dialogue is always delivered in the singular: "God Eater." Armed with weapons created from the very DNA of the monsters you hunt, you and up to three companions head into the bleak landscape to hound your enemies and scavenge for raw resources. These environments are all attractive and in some cases rather haunting. Pockmarked skyscrapers loom above you, a reminder of the civilization that once stood there. Falling rain and cloudy, turquoise skies provide a menacing backdrop to the tense battles that transpire. The aurora borealis stretches across the heavens in one snowy map; glowing lava is a sinister touch in another. As you jog across these stretches searching for your quarry, an eerie howl fills your heart with dread. The presentation is excellent, and unlike in similar games, you move freely about each battlefield without any intrusive loading times. It's unfortunate that your dozens upon dozens of missions occur on a relatively small number of maps. Fortunately, repetition is at least partially relieved by the visual diversity among Gods Eater Burst's atmospheric environments.
It's always the pretty ones that cause the most pain.
The high visual quality and diversity carry over to the beasts you fight, some of which have characteristics of real-world creatures, and others of which seem almost demonic in origin. One aragami looks and acts somewhat like a giant scorpion, but when it shields its face with a creepy skeleton mask, you know it's no simple arachnid. A gorgeous, toxic angel takes to the skies, emitting poisonous dust--half beautiful butterfly, half shrieking spirit. You won't see any indications of a living ecosystem as you might in a Monster Hunter game, so fans of that series might miss that touch of authenticity. Yet Gods Eater Burst makes up for this loss with the pure inventiveness of the aragami designs and behavior. You fight the same creatures time and again, though you meet new ones as you progress, while familiar ones learn new attacks and come in variants that are more vulnerable to certain attacks than others. Early on, you might take on one at a time, but missions mix things up later, sometimes requiring you to fell a large number of simpler foes, or sometimes throwing two, three, or even more massive monsters at you at once.
Of course, you aren't helpless in the face of such insurmountable odds. Mission descriptions indicate any aragami weaknesses, so you know which type of weapon might be best to equip before heading out. You fill three different equipment slots: melee weapon, shield, and gun. Melee weapons come in various flavors. Some are heavy and slow, but do good amounts of crushing or piercing damage. Others are quicker, and might have elemental properties, using ice and fire to wound your prey. Guns have their own sets of statistics, and you can purchase (and later, craft) specific types of bullets with similar elemental properties. In battle, you can switch between your melee and ranged weapons at will, but there's a catch: you can't just fire bullets willy-nilly. Rather, your ability to shoot is limited by a meter that is filled by landing melee attacks. In this way, Gods Eater Burst not only reduces the possibility of exploiting guns, but also gives combat variety by letting you both slice and shoot in a single mission.
Strike when the iron is hot.
Battles are uniformly intense. You generally get 30 minutes to complete a mission, and while it is rare to fail because the timer runs out, a single confrontation can take up a good chunk of that allotment. Aragami charge at you, spew rockets, and belly flop, among the many different attacks they deliver. Battles have a careful but smooth rhythm and require a lot of focus, since a single attack might wipe away a good portion of your health bar. If you find battles like this frustrating in similar games, you may find Gods Eater Burst's tweaks to the formula welcoming. For example, quaffing a health tonic and setting traps are brief affairs, so while you still make yourself vulnerable when performing such actions, you don't have to wait through overly long animations, nervously hoping to stay alive. Your attention is instead directed toward avoiding attacks, landing blows, and devouring your oversized targets with your weapon, which is also known as a god arc.

So, uhm... not the best at this. But, I made the cool banner up there. ^_^ So, anyways. I've got an idea, and I'd like to know if any of you are interested in joining. If enough people are, I'll make an OOC thread to put up character 'sheets' (Applications in a sense). So, here we go.
Jarrikson, New Jersey is an isolated town. The population is just low enough to not appear on many maps, making it somewhat a tourist attraction for it's mystery. Despite it being vastly unknown, the population standing at roughly 15 000, the town has been heavily modernized. There are multiple universities and schools about the town, many people attending yearly. Although, any who visit this town know of it's strange occurrences...
In 1992, a boy was found brutally mutilated on the side of the main highway right outside the town. The gashes were too large for even a bear, and the blood seemed to be nonexistant, as if it was drained out of him. Not two years after, a crew of people was found dead on their boat, their skin white as sheets. They had multiple marks along their bodies from what seemed to be needles, leading people to believe it was poison... although others believed it was caused by none other than vampires. All decisions aside, this wasn't the end. In the year 2000, these corpses began appearing more and more frequently. People crushed by boulders that seemingly were impossible to move, brutal mutilation, drained blood, burned bodies, kidnapped babies that were found speared days later in the woods, massive hoofprints... it was all so confusing to the towns people. But, despite what was happening, people continued on with their lives, as if it wasn't occurring at all.
Our story will be that of the attendants of 'Setrelmen School', which seems to have quite the number of... Odd... students.
If you didn't pick up much from that, I mean Supernatural Roleplay! ^_^ Like, Lycans, vampires, psychokinetics, witches, etc... All while they must try to stay hidden from the mortal view. You and I will be 13-19 year old students of the school, all with ONE TO TWO special abilities. Two being the most.
Hope I provided something interesting for you guys and gals! Hope you want to do this! ^_^
Just tell me if you're interested, and I'll get around to getting a good estimate of how many people I'd like before I open the OOC.
Hope to see you soon!

Brownfields – unused and abandoned sites – are scars on the landscape and often the legacy of our industrial past. They are the result of heavy industrial activity that did not pay as much attention to environmental concerns as we do today. If managed efficiently and professionally, these brownfield sites have great potential in land recycling programs. Sites can be redeveloped and redeployed for the good of whole communities. Our brownfield management services help you to examine your disused site. The area may be affected by asbestos, soil and water contamination, hazardous waste and other pollution. To find the best ways to revitalize your site, our specialists work with your architects, contractors and local authorities. Together we investigate appropriate and innovative solutions that meet the needs and regulatory requirements for your area. The objective of our brownfield assessment is to highlight any site problems and to develop efficient technical solutions for remediation, waste removal, asbestos removal, redevelopment and land recycling. We can then help you to appraise the economic return on your investment, depending on the project development and schedule. Your project's success is backed up by our track record in managing numerous brownfields project with creativity and innovation. Call us today for an integrated plan for rejuvenating your brownfield site.

Best AnswerI have been having the same issue. It looks like you can go to the itunes store and purchase the $19.99 snow leopard os x. You have to purchace that and load that first to be able to update to the 10.6.8. So basically start with the 10.6 snow leopard and then update after that. I have the 10.5.8 version also, but the itunes version requires a 10.6.8 or higher. You can also upgrade to the 10.7 moutain lion version after the snow leopard and it should work even better for your phone. Hopefully that helps!

Flash storage is essentially a really big USB memory stick instead of using a standard Hard Drive which stores information on disks inside the drive. here are the Pros/cons to flash:-
Faster to access information from the drive
More realiable as they have a lower failure rate
Even more reliable as if the mac is dropped beyond repair you stand a very good chance of recovering your information without issue as their are no disks inside which are usually shattered/scratched resulting in a loss of information

I am still running 10.4.11 (pathetically!)! Can I at least download Snow Leopard first to get a little more uprgraded??
- Asked by Gregory C from Minneapolis

- Asked about: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
Best AnswerDepends on your Mac's processor.
If it is a PowerPC processor, you CAN NOT install Snow Leopard.
If it is an Intel processor, you CAN install Snow Leopard.
To determine the type of processor, go to "About this Mac" in the "Apple" menu. If the word "Intel" appears anywhere next to "Processor", you can install Snow Leopard. You need at least 1GB of memory, 2GB or more is better.
TIP: Consider installing Snow Leopard on a separate partition (especially since Snow Leopard may need to do some reformatting of the partition it is being installed to). With an OS installed on two partitions, you can then start up from either the Tiger partition or the Snow Leopard partition by pressing the Option Key during startup (or using the Start Up Disk preference in System Preferences). This lets you keep you OS 10.4.11 installation in case you want to jump back.
BTW: If installing to a new partition, Snow Leopard installer will search your Mac for other OS installations and ask you if you want to import OS settings, apps, and/or files from an older installation. Say yes to all for a smoother transition to Snow Leopard. All settings, compatible apps/drivers and files will be copied to the new partition.- Answered by Ewald W from Vancouve

what is mountain lion & snow leopard ?
Sorry guys, I am just looking at buying an Imac, but don't know anything abut them ??
- Asked by Toni W from Brisbane
- Oct 2, 2012
- Flag as inappropriate
Best AnswerMountain lion and snow leopard are different updates of the computer operating system, OS X. Mountain lion is the name given for OS 10.8 and Snow Leopard is the name given for OS 10.6, with Lion in the middle at OS 10.7.
But if you buy a new iMac, it should come with the latest version of the operating system, which is Mountain Lion, currently at 10.8.2. And if it is running Snow leopard or higher, than you can upgrade online by opening the "App Store" on the iMac and buying and downloading the upgrades to get to the latest release.
Of course, if you are buying an older iMac, then double check which version of the operating system is the highest one that will run on that machine. Each new version has system requirements that an older machine may not meet.- Answered by Larry S from Brookline

13 inch Retina or 15 in Retina
Hi guys,
i'm looking to invest into a MacBook pro.
now the question is should I get a 13inch or 15inch macbook pro retina.
I travel a lot but I do watch movies most of the time on my current ipad, or desktop.
I would probably use the following software most of the time
-Microsoft Office - Word and Excel
-Picture editing
-Adobe Acrobat
-Occasionally: AutoCad
-Occasionally: Microsoft Projects or P6 (apparently i can run it in parallels)
-Occasionally: play a game (Assassin's creed)
Ideally i'd like it to be able to carry it everywhere when I go around to the gym, coffee or GF.
I was hesitating on the 13inch but it seems that it wont' be enough space. I have not seen any of them in person. But I would like to have a decent Laptop with which I could do my CPD, watch movies and some work sometimes.- Asked by Bhavesh R

Best AnswerI just purchased the 13" for the fiancé based on the fact that her work boss has the 15" and she said that thing is a beast. So, I talked to him and he said, "I wish I had bought the 13" this one is just a bit to large to travel". With the retina display you can pack more onto the screen because everything is so darn clear. Go 13-retina for sure.

Are Apple keyboards, with only a delete key, less efficient in making deletions than conventional keyboards with both a backspace and a delete key?
I have been using a Windows desktop at home and my office. Although I have never had a laptop, I have been planning to buy an Apple laptop for use when I travel. However, I recently used an Apple and found its keyboard, in one particular way, to be inferior to the standard keyboards that I have been accustomed to using. Do you agree?
A conventional keyboard has two keys to make deletions. The backspace key deletes characters to the left of the cursor. The delete key deletes characters to the right of the cursor. In contrast, the Apple keyboard has only one key to make deletions. It is the delete key and it deletes characters to the left of the cursor. It appears that if I want to delete characters to the right of the cursor, there is no way to do that directly and simply. Am I correct about that? I must either use a second key or I must first highlight the text and then delete it.
Using a non-Apple conventional keyboard, it is also possible to delete an entire word and one adjacent space in only two strokes by using a combination of the control key and the delete key. The same can be done in the other direction using the control key and the backspace key. How would these two types of deletion most efficiently be done with an Apple keyboard?
The reality seems to be that two keys to delete can operate more efficiently, in more directions, than only one (Apple). Do you agree that the Apple keyboard is less efficient in making deletions than the conventional keyboard when using Word software? What is the best way to get around that inefficiency in a MacBookPro? If there is no way around it, should this discourage me from getting an Apple since I do lots of word processing and deletions?
Does the Apple keyboard have any advantages over the conventional keyboard that I should be aware of?- Asked by Robert J from Granger

- Asked about: Apple Wireless Keyboard - French
Best Answerfn + Backspace will achieve what you want. The 'fn' key is at the bottom left of your keyboard.
Deleting text in front of the cursor with the regular Delete key can be done by holding down the Function, or fn key while pressing it.
You can also do this by pressing Control + D.
You can delete the entire word behind the cursor by pressing Control + Delete or Option + Delete.
You can delete the entire line of text or paragraph behind the cursor by pressing Command + Delete.- Answered by Mikulas J from Mount Kuring-gai

Best AnswerFirst, upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard. You can purchase this at some stores, but only if they still have supply. They will not have it on display and you have to specifically ask for it. You can also order it online directly from Apple:
store.apple.com /us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Once you have 10.6 installed, you can update to 10.6.8 and use the Apple Mac Store to upgrade to 10.7 Lion because the MacBook4,1 and MacBook4,2 do not support 10.8 Mountain Lion. However, you might need to call Apple Care in order to purchase this over the phone, as they no longer list 10.7 Lion in their app store.- Answered by Miles R from Lakewood

MacBook Pro retina 13 inch or 15 inch?
I've been thinking about switching from windows to Mac for a while,and in the end, I've decided to get a MacBook Pro with retina display. I would use this computer as a desktop since I have no need for portability other than the odd weekend trip or vacation.
I need the laptop for documents, many presentations, browsing the web, watching some movies, editing some photos and for a little gaming if I have the time for it.
Originally, I wanted the 15 inches because I like the bigger screen, but there is a big difference in prize between both laptops. Which one should I buy? Is it worth it to spend 400$ more for the 15 inch MacBook Pro with retina display?
Thank you for your advice.- Asked by Raquel J from Salamanca

AnswerI got pages for my iPad, and then for my Mac only because I was a PC user with Microsoft Word for many years and needed something that would be made for Mac, but also compatible with Word. While pages was okay, with a lot of new and interesting features, I must say that intolerably lacking in features that most students would need. As a result, I got the Microsoft Office for Mac (2011 version with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; I'd personally stay away from the 2013 version) and found this to me a much better choice for either schoolwork, or other general Word applicable use's..

Is it better to run the macbook pro with the battery charger plugged in at all times or wait for the power to run out and then re-charge it fully?
- Asked by Sanaa F from Thornhill
- Oct 2, 2012
- Flag as inappropriate
Best AnswerYou can find info on MacBook batteries on the Apple website, in the Support section.
Basically, it is a MUST to use the battery once in a while. It is perfectly okay to use it on the AC adapter most of the time as the battery will never overcharge. While on AC, click on the battery icon and you will see 'Power Source: Power Adapter'. This means it's not charging and using your battery at the same time.
In fact, using it on AC will help you NOT finish up the limited charge cycles your battery can hold (Apple claims 1000 cycles for MacBook Pros) AS FAST as you would if you were to use the battery ALL the time. That being said, all batteries will degrade naturally over time, whether you use it or not.
My advice?
1) At least once a week run down the battery to 75% (or whatever number you choose), then use it plugged in as you wish. I personally use it on AC most of the time since I'm always near a socket, but once a day let it run to 80% before plugging in again. This is to keep the electrons moving (which is very important. See Apple's Support page.).
2) Once a month, charge it to 100%, run it down all the way, then recharge to 100%. This is solely for calibration purposes. Don't do this too often as it will be HARMFUL to the battery instead. (look up Battery University for proof) In fact, you can even opt to do it once every 6 months or not at all. Not important.
3) MOST IMPORTANT: Keep it AWAY from HEAT! Always ensure your laptop is cool. Heat is your battery's worse enemy. Stay away from it.
Just remember - Move the ELECTRONS once in a while and keep away from HEAT! These are the most important things. Don't worry about the rest. Enjoy your MacBook Pro!- Answered by Jed Y.j L

Is there a Word Processor included on MacBook Pro?
What is the best / simplest Word Processor for student use on MacBook Pro?
- Asked by Joanne L from Saint Louis
- Dec 7, 2013
- Flag as inappropriate
AnswerYou asked for best and/or simplest.
All Macs include an App in the Applications Folder named "TextEdit". Drag the icon to your Dock and you have a functional Word Processor that's about as simple as possible.
Apple's Pages Word Processor is much more powerful, with many of the features found in Microsoft Word for Mac. I find it to be better than Word for some tasks. It's free with new Macs.
Both of the above allow you to save files as MS Word documents and open Word documents.
If you purchase any new Mac from Apple, or any current model Mac from the Refurbished and Clearance page of the Online Store--all the new version iWork Apps, including Apple's "Pages" Word Processor, are included free. So you will have an excellent word processor, spreadsheet and presentation package.
Apple sells the iWork Apps individually for $19.95 each, as downloads from the Mac App Store, for users with older Macs who hadn't already purchased a license. The new versions of iWork were free for me when I upgraded my old Mac to the new OS X 10.9, because I paid for the previous version.- Answered by Gary F from Fort Worth

Macbook Pro with Retina Display VS The Macbook Air
Hello, I know this question has been asked 17,000 times on this website, but I am really confused. I am a switching from windows to a macbook. I am studying at a university right now to get my music education degree (with a slight possibility of adding a 3D media fine art minor degree) and I currently don't have a computer. Just like everybody else, i'm trying to decide between the 13" pro (the October 2013 retina model) and the 13" air. I usually have pretty long days at school so I plan on taking my laptop with me a couple days a week.
The things I will be doing is surfing the web (Youtube, social media, small computer games,etc.), downloading music and movies (I currently have about 600 songs and 6 movies on iTunes ), painter 12, writing papers and running Bootcamp or Parallels.
I also plan on editing Youtube videos, I have made a couple and would like to continue with that, and editing photos as well. My family is planning on taking a family trip and last time we took a trip we took almost 2,000 photos.
I talked to someone at the apple store and she told me to get the base model 13" air. I realize that she probably knows more than me about what I need but I wanted to get a second opinion before I spend so much money. 4gb of ram and 128GB of storage just doesn't seem like enough, although she kept telling me it was...
Anyway, if everybody on here tells me the same thing then I will get that one. I just don't know if I need the extra power on the pro. I was planning on getting 16GB of ram and 256 GB SSD. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks- Asked by Karen C from Virginia Beach

Best AnswerI would recommend listing your requirements for a new laptop and rearrange them in order of importance. Such requirements may include cost, hard drive capacity, expandibility, RAM, processor performance, weight, display quality, etc. In terms of cost, figure out your budget and get the best computer you can afford. For HD capacity, both Air and Retina can quickly become unaffordable as you get beyond 256 GB. Video will use up a lot of capacity, so the most cost effective approach is to use an external hard drive. It can be a pain to carry around and hook up. But it's probably more feasible for storing your video, music, and photos. To start, you can get a MacBook with 128 GB or 256 GB and later expand with an external HD if you run out of space. For RAM, I'd recommend 8 GB minimum, especially if you do any video. With both the MB Air and MBP Retina, the RAM is not user upgradeable. For processor performance, I'd recommend i7 quad core for video. Every computer I've used for video has had 8 GB RAM and i7 quad core, and I have been satisfied with them. For weight, I'd recommend finding a 2-1/2 lb book and carrying it around for a couple days to simulate a MB Air, then swap out the book for a 3-1/2 lb book to simulate a MBP Retina. If you can tell a difference and find it unpleasant, go with the Air. For display quality, compare an Air and Retina display side by side. I personally can tell a difference, but if display quality is at the top of your list, then go with the Retina display; it will probably be a $250-300 upper in price. In the past 20 years, I've bought 8 different Macs. Don't sweat the purchase. Get the best computer you can afford, and you will be all the more wiser when you buy the next one. Plus, Macs hold their value for resale.

- Asked by Todd L from North Vancouver
- Jun 24, 2012

Best Answer"Retina" as trademarked by Apple, and is a process where apple doubles the amount of pixels where one pixel lies. An example is, the old macbook pro resolution was 1400x900, the new one in Retina is 2880x1800. Essentially they split the pixel into 4 squares, and they do all sorts of other technical stuff to make it all clear.
I suggest you only go with the Retina MacBook Pro if you're in Video, Sound Editing/Producing or Graphic Design, I've heard Web Designers get a bit frustrated at times, but Adobe will soon resolve this with an update in Photoshop. I think the graphics may still seem blurry for now.
I personally ordered one, for the purposes of design, and more.

Best AnswerA Solid State Drive (SSD) is a storage device that uses flash technology but comes in the form factor of a conventional hard drive so it can be used in a computer in the hard drives role.
The term 'flash storage' refers to the use of any memory based on a micro chip with no moving parts. E.g. USB flash drive, memory card...
Apple describe their latest machines as having flash storage as they use flash chips soldered to the board. In practice, this is like an SSD but as it can't be removed and is in a different form factor.- Answered by Shane B

More witnesses testified for the prosecution Monday in the murder trial of Veronica Taft. Taft is accused murdering her two-year-old son, Lyric. Our Melissa Kakareka has more from Broome County Court.
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. -- Members of the jury continue to hear witness testimony in the murder trial of Veronica Taft as they try to determine whether or not the Baldwinsville mother murdered her two-year-old son, Lyric.
The child was found beaten and unresponsive in his bed in December of 2010, when Taft and her children were living at 4 1/2 Fayette Street in Binghamton.
On Monday, Taft's former boyfriend, Jesse Noel, told the jury that the defendant called him on January 10, 2010 and confessed to him that she had killed Lyric, telling him she had kicked the toddler and slammed him into a wall.
Noel said he lied to police to help Taft make it look like Charles Pratt was responsible. Pratt was another boyfriend of Taft's and was babysitting on the night of Lyric's death after Taft went to work.
Jury members also watched nearly three hours of DVD footage depicting Taft's original interrogation with police investigators.
In between questioning about the events surrounding Lyric's death, Taft can be seen sitting alone in the interrogation room, crying, shaking and talking out loud to herself about the story she was giving police.
Inside the courtroom, Taft began crying and covered her face as she relived the interrogation.
Court will not be in session Tuesday. The prosecution will call more witnesses on Wednesday morning.

A new Ad Hoc Committee on Health Care Reform Implementation has been established by AOTA President Florence Clark, PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA, to help identify strategic targets of opportunity for the occupational therapy profession as reform legislation approved by Congress is implemented. The panel is chaired by Dr. Brent Braveman, former speaker of the AOTA Representative Assembly, and taps the expertise of a broad range of knowledgeable members of the profession to help guide the Association's agenda.
The Accountable Care Act presents many opportunities and challenges to occupational therapy. Along with expanding health insurance coverage, the law contemplates a redesigned health care system with a focus on prevention, coordination, and evidence-based practice. "I have established this new Committee to help AOTA understand and identify key targets of opportunity as reform is being implemented so that we position our profession to thrive in this new environment," said AOTA President Clark. "I have asked Brent to identify experts in health care policy and systems within our profession to provide guidance to our advocacy and related activities." The Committee will reach out to use expertise within the Association's membership in critical areas such as prevention, wellness, chronic care management, and telehealth, and look at the implications of new payment systems and emerging health reform concepts such as medical home and accountable care organizations.
In announcing the new Committee, Clark said, "I am excited about the opportunities health care reform provides our profession, and I look forward to the work this group will be doing to assist the Association in responding to the new health care dynamic."
Questions about the Committee can be directed to AOTA's Federal Affairs Department at firstname.lastname@example.com. To volunteer, access the COOL system and check Health Care Reform as your interest area. (AOTA members only. Log-in required.)

1. Wilson Island
No TVs. No phones. If you've ever dreamed of being shipwrecked on deserted island in style, Wilson Island is your answer. A small coral cay in the Great Barrier Reef just 72 kilometers from the Queensland mainland, Wilson will win you over quickly. Watch newly hatched turtles clumsily meander down to the ocean. Snorkel in the surrounding reefs, witnessing manta rays, triggerfish and reef sharks cruising by. And, when you need to take it even slower, enjoy gourmet dining then retreat back to your designer-style luxury tent, just one of six on the whole island.
2. Heron Island
Even if you're not a diver, Heron Island will impress you: 10 Great Barrier Reef dive sites are within 15 minutes of the island. And the Heron Island Research Station takes advantage of this location. It's one of Australia's most prestigious marine research stations and even trains students in marine sciences. Topside, a perfect white-sand beach surrounds you on all sides where you can truly immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. Among the music of seabirds, tracks of turtles and multi-colored clouds of fish, the feeling that you're a guest of nature itself is inescapable. For even more indulgence, visit the Aqua Soul Spa for massages, facials and more.

Cricket's summer washout
12:00pm Wednesday 26th September 2012 in Sport
AS Yorkshire continues to be plagued by downpours and deluge, STEVE CARROLL and ALEX FINNIS investigate how the wretched summer affected the area's cricket clubs...
IT has been labelled the worst summer for a century – and cricket clubs in York and North and East Yorkshire are hoping it will be 100 years before they see another one like it.
The wettest April since records began, and rain which fell relentlessly in the months that followed, didn't just see matches abandoned across the Hunters York & District Senior League and HPH York Vale League.
It hit clubs hardest in the pocket.
With more than a third of York & District games lost, and around 120 Vale League matches cancelled or abandoned, stalwart clubs have together lost tens of thousands of pounds in bar takings, match fees and fund-raising.
But the weather has affected every aspect of club life, with some teams also claiming the many weeks between fixtures has cost them players – with adults and juniors getting involved in new activities during the enforced break and not returning.
Chiefs in both the Senior and Vale Leagues fear that, should the heavens open in a similar vein next season, some clubs could face closure.
That is the reality facing Stillingfleet, founder members of the Vale League, whose miserable year left them with a shortfall of about £1,000 and has seen members asked to consider the possibility of folding.
Vale League bosses have sent out a survey to clubs asking them about their plans for the future, while, in the Senior League, the rain saw the biggest loss of games since records began with secretary Albert Pattison saying it has had a huge effect on junior cricket.
"At the 16th week of the season, we had lost 44 per cent of our games," Pattison said. "I would guess we lost, in total, about 36 per cent of the matches. I think the previous worst was 27 per cent.
"Up to 12 weeks, we had 247 uncompleted matches and the first five weeks were all badly affected. There has only been about five weeks where every game was played, so there was a considerable loss.
"It caused mayhem with cup matches and we had an awful lot of bowl-outs in the League Cup. It's had a big effect on juniors. Most of the games have been rained off week after week. They tend to bring more people to the club, you get parents and grandparents coming down (to watch). That's another disastrous effect financially.
"It has discouraged kids who find something else to do. Clubs rely on juniors. They fill in the gaps when adults are on holidays but the youngsters have hardly played at all."
Martin Jarred, York Vale League media officer, added: "We've lost in the region of 120 fixtures and that's more than anyone can remember. It is inevitable that it will have an effect on all clubs. Players tend to pay money to play and, obviously, they are not playing.
"We decided, at a management meeting a couple of weeks ago, to carry out a survey of clubs. We were mindful of the fact that some were struggling a bit. We've sent a questionnaire asking them about their plans for the future.
"We started the season with a record number of clubs and a record number of divisions – six for the first time. We did have problems with some clubs dropping out during the course of the league – like University of York Staff, Drax and Huntington , who were struggling to get a team out."
Nearly every club contacted by The Press told a similar tale – frustration at a lost season and significant financial losses.
At Goole CC, secretary David Caldicott presided over a double whammy for the Senior League outfit. Not only did they lose £8,000 in bar takings but the first team were also relegated, he believes, as a result of the weather.
"It was most difficult at the beginning of the season," he said. "In April and May we only played one or two half-games out of eight or nine and we've lost around £8,000. We normally take around £1,000 a game.
"Our first team got relegated this season because of the weather. We found it really difficult just to get going."
It was a similar story at Easingwold, where secretary John Redshaw added: "We lost ten fixtures which financially meant around £5,000 to £6,000 lost. The bar is our biggest bringer of income – we would normally take £500 to £600 there on a matchday.
"We've made some extra money through fundraising, doing things like a golf day and have made back about half the losses. But we are only okay because of this."
At Sessay, secretary Keith Houlston said: "The weather has had a massive effect on us. Our first team only played 11 out of its 22 matches, which is a few fewer than most and we were relegated by a few points because of it. There's been no-one in our club on Saturday evenings. We're very much down financially because of it."
Even at those clubs who are financially secure, the weather has still taken its toll.
Clifton Park-based York have resigned their fifth team from the Vale League because of a lack of players. Secretary Nick Kay believes the dearth of cricket has contributed to club members finding other things to do.
"It has had a horrible, massive effect on us," he said. "Yes, we lose out revenue-wise but we have also lost out player-wise. We try to field five teams every week and, when you have two or three weeks where it is rained off, parents, players and juniors make other plans.
"People in the Vale League will think we have been a complete rabble this year because we have conceded six fixtures and had six rained off. We have resigned from the Vale League. It is not a case of wanting to do it but we felt we were becoming a bit of an embarrassment."
CASE STUDY Stillingfleet Cricket Club
VALE League founder members Stillingfleet CC have told their players to consider the possibility of folding after a miserable campaign left them with a shortfall of around £1,000.
The club, started early in the 20th century and who have been in the league since it began in 1934, could also consider giving up their ground or looking to raise significant funding in order to secure their future.
Stillingfleet were only able to complete 50 per cent of their league fixtures in 2012 – either because of rain on the day of the match or because wet weather in the run up to the game made the ground unplayable.
With the club suffering slowly dwindling squad numbers, the cost of keeping going is beginning to prove extremely difficult, said club secretary and team stalwart Chris Woodfine.
"We currently pay more than £1,000 to insure players, supporters and passing third parties against injury and damage and also to insure the timber pavilion and ground maintenance machinery," he outlined.
"The club own two wicket mowers, an outfield mower and a wicket roller that annually cost nearly £500 to fuel, service and maintain. The club must pay more than £100 annually for cricket balls and other cricket equipment, although this season the club benefited from York Vale League providing a dozen free match balls.
"Each season, the club uses in excess of £300 of grass seed, fertiliser, worm killer, dressing, loam and top soil in the preparation of their cricket wickets. The club also pay ECB affiliation and league fees of approximately £250 per annum.
"The annual cost of keeping the club on the pitch amounts to more than £2,150 before additional incidental costs."
Woodfine added that the club used to generate at least £1,000 a year from an advertising board on the ground visible on the Stillingfleet to Naburn road but the recession had seen that figure slashed by three-quarters.
"The club's only other source of income is the players themselves who pay match subs of £10 for an adult and £5 for a junior," he added.
"After paying the scorer and Maureen, the league's best tea lady, this results in an average profit of £65 for an away game and £95 for a home game.
"A full season of fixtures would generate at least £1,600 from the club's players. However, in 2012 with rain affected fixtures, it generated only £865.
"The result of the above factors is that in the 2012 season the club had a financial shortfall of approximately £1,000, which has been personally financed by one of the players."
A recent meeting of the squad talked about the financial problems, the player shortage and the time involved in maintaining the ground.
Woodfine said the options of folding the club, giving up the ground and becoming a nomadic team to reduce overhead costs, or raising significant new funding were now on the table with the future of the club to be decided over the next few months.
What other clubs said
ASKHAM BRYAN – Six out of 16 games called off. Secretary Mike Bains said: "Our fundraising target would normally be around £1,000 a year but we are well under half of that target."
BISHOPTHORPE – Six games rained off. Ian Holmes, secretary, said: "Those six games saw us lose £50 to £60 a team which is £360 to £400 over the course of the year."
COPMANTHORPE – First and second XI lost six to seven games. Secretary John Hughes said: "We have probably lost between £300 and £400. That sort of money is not easy to claw back."
DUNNINGTON – Also in the Senior League. Secretary Gary Andrew said: "Bar takings go straight into the sports club so it doesn't materially affect us but you can't get any momentum going."
FULFORDGATE – Four home games lost. Alan Baldock, secretary, said: "We get our money from match fees and, if we don't play, we don't get any money in. We just about coped."
HIRST COURTNEY – Secretary Anthony Hinch said: "We will have made a financial loss this year, simply because we haven't had the turnover with the teas and raffles that we run and the game fees that come from the lads that play."
MELBOURNE – Five matches out of 20 called off and one abandoned. Nick Boyd, secretary, said: "We don't really think we have lost out financially."
NORTH DUFFIELD – Chairman John Patrick said: "Financially, it affects us badly. We only actually lost two games, which is our teas money, but when we lose away games it is the match fees we lose as well. It's between £500 and £600 in total."
OVINGTON – First XI lost nine fixtures. Alan Fletcher, secretary, said: "We are more than £1,000 down. We've worked on a system for a number of years where we pay match fees. If we don't play, we don't get any money."
WOODHOUSE GRANGE – Also in the Senior League. Eight games abandoned for the first XI. Secretary David Farmer said: "If you lose a third of your games, you lose a third of your bar income as well. We were fortunate that we had a few big games towards the end of the season."
DRAX – Lost ten fixtures out of 22. Keith Powell, secretary, said: "It cost us about £60 a fixture. We paid £7,000 for a new drainage system three years ago and it hasn't coped. The sheer amount of water made a dip in the outfield which needs rectifying. It's going to cost around £1,200."
LONDESBOROUGH PARK – Peter Milne, secretary, said: "The groundsmen and others are having to put twice as much work on the ground and we've lost £1,000 to £2,000 of income."
OSBALDWICK – Lost nine games. David Rippon, secretary, said: "It cost the club around £900 in total. The land drainage couldn't cope with the amount of water. You couldn't see the grass."
SHERIFF HUTTON BRIDGE – Colin Mole, secretary, said: "Players got used to not playing and found other things to do. We lost four or five players. We couldn't afford to have another season like this."
THIRSK – Secretary Philip Robshaw said: "We lost a lot of away games and two or three of our home games. We lost money from unused teas."

USciences' DrOT will put you ahead of the game, setting you up to be a leader in the burgeoning occupational therapy field.
Occupational therapy focuses on helping people with physical, developmental and behavioral disabilities participate effectively in meaningful and goal-directed activities. Occupational therapists work in medical and nonmedical settings. Occupational therapy is seeing strong growth in its administration in community-based settings, such as schools, outpatient facilities, and senior centers. Effective training is essential.
Both the master in occupational therapy program (MOT) and the doctoral program in occupational therapy (DrOT) are fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE). ACOTE is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
ACOTE can be contacted at:
ACOTE c/o Accreditation Department American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) 4720 Montgomery Lane, Suite 200 Bethesda, MD 20814-3449 (301) 652-6611 extension 2914 www.acoteonline.org
Nearly every state will require you to have a license to practice occupational therapy. Please note that a prior felony conviction may prevent licensure. Each state has a law describing the process for obtaining a license to practice occupational therapy. The primary criterion for obtaining a license is passing the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) examination. Each state has specific application requirements. The NBCOT examination is widely recognized throughout the world in case you plan to work overseas. In order to be eligible to take the certification exam, you must complete all of the MOT or DrOT program requirements. All fieldwork must be completed within two years of completion of the academic work. The total number of MOT graduates who passed the NBCOT examination as first time new graduate test takers in 2010-2012 was 63 out of 103, a pass rate of 61%. During that three year time period, the program has 102 graduates. The Occupational Therapy Program has implemented several initiatives to improve the first time pass rate on the NBCOT examination, which are having a positive impact. The first time pass rate for graduates in both 2011 and 2012 has been above the three year average. As of October 22, 2013, all graduates who have taken the NBCOT exam between January and June, 2013 have passed on their first attempt.Giving the program a 100% pass rate for this period.
