I am looking for the locaton of the Galloway Cemetery. I am assuming it is in Christian County. The person I am looking for funeral was in Nixa, Mo and the Harris of Clever funeral home had the funeral. This was in Oct. 1951. Could it have been changed, any help would be appreciated.

← You did not specify any titleLoading editor
Someone just erased all of the codes and pictures (everything) of Elena and Damon's page! please say you can restore that! Cause that was too much history :( I don't know why she did it!Loading editor
That person is deleting and re-adding stuff to gain badges, which is against the rules of this wiki. I left a warning on their wall. If they do it again, they'll get blocked.Loading editor
Loading editor
Hello, Alaric. I need an idea of a different style for templates on this wiki. Can you help?Loading editor
Loading editor
So it says on Klaus page that he was a werewolf/witch hybrid, when it has never really been confirmed, only hinted. So I'm wondering what you think should be done?Loading editor
- View all 23 replies
Both werewolf and witch aspects come with the bloodline and they don't skip generation. Klaus is born to a werewolf father and witch mother. He therefore is a hybrid of both.Loading editor
That's never been stated or implied. That's entirely speculation.Loading editor
How is it speculation when I express pure facts? Had Klaus wasn't capable of magic, like Esther's every other children, Mikael would have suspected long ago. Not until after he made his first kill as a vampire.Loading editor
We don't know for a fact that the children were witches, though.Loading editor
Being children of a witch makes them witches.
Rebekah implied that they were all witches in season 3 episode Ordinary People.Loading editor
Not necessarily. Elena is descended from witches but isn't one, so the witch gene stopped being passed along at some point.
Esther said in All My Children, "When they become human again, they can be killed." And Rebekah makes references to becoming human. But when Silas was talking about taking the cure, they talked about him becoming a witch.Loading editor
I agree with that it's a speculation and since it's not canon it should not be on this wikia until it's confirmed.Loading editor
Becoming human was a figure of speech. It means they can age and die, have children, do human stuff. Elena was referred to as human multiple times but she was a doppelganger, not human as in species.
Elena didn't trigger her traveller magic, just like Katherine didn't until she became human in season 5. That's why she wasn't a witch. But Katherine's father was a traveller, so Katherine was a traveller and so was Nadia. It was and still is in the bloodline. It didn't stop at some point ever. And until it is confirmed to be otherwise, we go with what we know.Loading editor
How can we go with something that has never been stated or confirmed?Loading editor
You don't "trigger" magic. Katherine had it in life and was told not to use it. Elena didn't have powers or she wouldn't have been able to be compelled.
The bottom line is; we have no solid proof that the Original siblings were witches.Loading editor
Elijah, Kol, and Finn were confirmed to be witches.
as for Rebekah..
Elena: "But if your mother was a witch, then..."
Rebekah: "Am I? No, a witch is nature's servant; a vampire is an abomination of nature. You can either be one or the other, never both."
And I simply cannot bring proof for 2 other children whom we saw for not more than 2 seconds.Loading editor
That's not proof. She didn't say, "Not anymore", or anything.
Until someone says, "Oh, yes, wasn't it such fun when we were witch-Vikings?", we can't know for sure.Loading editor
how is that not proof? She said she can't be both of them, so she is not a witch.
You don't need to hear everything word by word. Use some common sense.Loading editor
It becomes more obvious as the show goes on they were witches. After the Harvest failed, Elijah said "as a family we share Esther's magic" and Rebekah said they can't because they're vampires.
Anyway more proof- https://twitter.com/MichaelNarducci/status/530932419851870209
The writer here confirms Kol & Rebekah used magic. Elijah and Finn would've been the same. Klaus would've had the gene through Esther. They were witches.Loading editor
She just said that you can't be a witch and a vampire. That's all. She didn't say that she used to be a witch.
Silas was a witch and his family weren't. The Petrovs were witches and the Flemmings weren't. We need undeniable proof.Loading editor
There we go. Undeniable proof. They had the potential and they had the gene. Doesn't necessarily make them witches, though.Loading editor
@Rebekah Mikaelson
Where is that quote from, though? I can't seem to find it and don't remember it.Loading editor
So the writer confirms they have the gene, they had potential, two of them use magic. But that's not enough for you to believe they were witches..?
And it was the TO episode where Celeste ruins the Harvest by taking Esther's power.Loading editor
Found it. I was looking after the Harvest as you said, but it was actually before.
I'm simply saying what Narducci said. They had the potential and they had the gene.Loading editor
It was before or after, that episode was too long ago to remember lol.
Kol and Rebekah had the gene & used magic, there's no reason why the others would be any different. Anyway, like he's says, we'll see in the future.Loading editor
Precisely. And when that happens, we can edit the wiki accordingly.Loading editor
Klause was not a warlock , he inherited the werewolf gene. Like Rebekah said " You can only be one or the other , never both" and the statement still stands even with the werewolf gene . There are not hybrids between warlocks and werewolfs exept Hope .Loading editor
In the last episode Kol said "none of my siblings tapped into their power".
They all had it. They just never used it.
Klaus was a witch, or warlock or whatever the hell you wanna call.
And yes, he was also a werewolf.
He was a hybrid.
Only of another 2 species.
Rebekah's statement doesn't stand for werewolves and witches. She was talking about witchcraft and vampirism.
Klaus inherited both genes, just like how Katherine inherited the traveller gene and doppelganger gene. She could be both.
Klaus was both.Loading editor

Congratulations Alaric! You are indeed the User of the Year !!Loading editor

Thank you! :)Loading editor

Hey, Alaric! Well, I kind of changed the end dates of the voting polls thing. And I changed it to Nov 14. And I know, it was supposed to end on Dec 02. I just changed it because it was taking too much time and people were rarely voting these past few days. And Frank told me that I can change the dates anytime.
So, I hope it's okay if I post the results.Loading editor

Hey, I have a question. Is there going to be a second season of awards or something? And do you want the ID and password?Loading editor

Hi there, i started a thread, entitled "ways in which Elena could regain her memories" but it was before i made a profile, so it was contributed as by an anonymous contributer, is there anyway to change it so that it attributed to my account?Loading editor
I believe I can. Can you give me the link?Loading editor
I can yes. And Thank you very much for replying so quickly.Loading editor
It turns out that I can't. It it were a blog post, then it would be possible to do that. Sorry.Loading editor
No worries, its only one post, i was just hoping to have it connected to my account. Thanks anyway.Loading editor
Loading editor
I think we should remove the question mark from the page name Do You Remember the First Time? at least until the episode airs. Because this way I can't seem to add it to the wiki navigation/Upcoming episodes. See if you can add if you want, but I couldn't.Loading editor
You can add the name without the question mark in the navigation. It should redirect.Loading editor
yes, it redirects. ThanksLoading editor
No problem.Loading editor
Loading editor
Hey, Alaric! I have a question. Should we rename Sarah (Season 6) to Sarah Salvatore or not because some users just keep renaming it and that redirect thingy happens. You know what I mean. So, please reply.Loading editor
No we shouldn't. Salvatore is not her legal surname so until we know what it is, it should remain the way it is. I tried to protect it from being renamed, though not sure if I made it right. But she's not Sarah Salvatore.Loading editor
Ah, I see. Thanks, Mgc!!Loading editor
I agree with Mgc. We should wait.Loading editor
Okay!Loading editor
Loading editor
Hey, Ric! Yeah so, I need a favor. Well, as you see that all the categories have been closed, so from here users are going to vote. So, instead of creating polls on the wiki, can you create polls like you do for the "The Vampire Diaries Wiki Awards"? You know. If not, then I'll make them here on the page. Just think about it and let me know.
P.S. 6x05's promo video is not working. It says "The video is private". So, can you replace it?Loading editor
I'm kinda busy at the moment and basically for the next 10-14 days. I have sort of written exams in college. I don't know how you call it in the USA.
Promo for 6x05 seems fine to me.Loading editor
Done.Loading editor
Thanks.Loading editor

Play On Words - BOTS
Artist: Play On Words
Producer: Omari T
Album: Suns of God
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 2 votes )
A buzzmaking rap duo hailing from Sin City, Play On Words make their grand entrance into the Booth with a freshly-minted single off their latest street album. True to their collaborative name, partners-in-rhyme Nate Quest and Nick Crucial take this cut as an opportunity to showcases their facility with the English language. From its acronymic title ("BOTS" stands for "Brothers of the sun.") down to the duo's blunted verses, the record brims with double-meanings and vivid turns of phrase. Omari T. provides a mellow, summery beat to accompany their bars. Like what you're hearing? More awaits on POW's Suns of God street album, available now for free download via Audiomack.

Lambda Legal Honors Staples Principal Dodig
Staples High School Principal John Dodig today was honored by the Lambda Legal organization at a brunch, silent auction and fashion show at Mitchells on Post Road East. The group was founded in 1973 as the nation's first legal organization dedicated to achieving full equality for lesbian and gay people. Dodig, Staples principal for 11 years, said 15 years ago he decided to let people know he was gay. "I'm in a community that is accepting," he told News 12 Connecticut. "I'm able to be an advocate not just for gay kids, but all kids that see themselves as being different. My goal in life as principal has been to help kids avoid, as much as possible, not carrying a scar for the rest of their lives." A former student nominated Dodig for the award.

Staples Fails to Make Newsweek Top High School List
Newsweek magazine has released its annual list of the Top 500 high schools in the United States, and 13 Connecticut high schools, including one in Fairfield and Greenwich, made the list.
But Westport's Staples High School, named by Newsweek No. 3 in the state two years ago, is not among them. (See WestportNow May 3, 2012)
Each year, Newsweek teams up with a research group to compile the list based on a tough set of quality guidelines. Officials from Newsweek said that the methodology for the list was stricter than ever this year.
On top of the list this year was Thomas Jefferson High School of Alexandria, Va. The highest ranking Connecticut high school on the list is Amity Regional High School at No. 112. Amity serves students from Bethany, Orange, and Woodbridge.

FORT WAYNE -- Though local Roman Catholic officials removed a parish priest following an allegation of sexual abuse, a national survivors' advocacy group believes the diocese did not go far enough.
In a statement issued Wednesday, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, said the Fort Wayne-South Bend Catholic Diocese should have revealed when and where the alleged abuse took place.
The Rev. Thomas C. Lombardi, 62, was removed from his duties at St. Joseph Catholic Church-Hessen Cassel.
According to a letter written by the Rev. Kevin C. Rhoades, bishop of the diocese, the church's "commitment to the safety of our children and young people" necessitated Lombardi's removal.
The letter, provided to The Journal Gazette by the diocese, said the incident involved an unnamed minor, saying it took place some years ago at another parish, which was not named.
But SNAP officials said the diocese did not disclose all the information it has regarding Lombardi's actions.
Monsignor Robert C. Schulte, diocesan vicar general and rector of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Fort Wayne, said the reason little information has been released has been out of consideration for the "accuser/victim," who wishes to remain anonymous.
Besides a request for more information, SNAP also urged Rhoades to visit every parish where Lombardi ever worked, which includes St. Louis Besancon parish in New Haven, St. Joseph in Garrett and St. Joseph in Mishawaka.
The bishop should beg "other victims or witnesses to come forward and report what they saw," wrote Barbara Dorris, SNAP outreach director.
Schulte believes the diocese's "safe environment program" provides such opportunities for disclosure. Twice a year, the diocese publishes information in every parish bulletin asking anyone who has suffered from abuse to come forward. The information includes details on whom to contact.
Such information is also available on the diocesan website.
"We feel that we're doing quite a bit. If we get some more information, then more action could be taken," Schulte said. "We'd have to see if it is warranted."

San Diego, CA (Sports Network) - Pedro Ciriaco went 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBI to lead the San Diego Padres to a 6-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the opener of a four-game set.
Ciriaco also had an RBI triple and scored twice, while Logan Forsythe and Chase Headley added one RBI apiece for the Padres, winners in eight of their last 10 games.
"A moving bat is dangerous. He got a high sinker and put it in the seats. Pedro is doing fine," said Padres manager Bud Black.
Jason Marquis worked six strong innings, giving up two runs on seven hits while striking out five. Nick Vincent (2-0) picked up the win after working one scoreless inning in relief.
Yasiel Puig and A.J. Ellis both hit solo homers and Juan Uribe drove in a run for the Dodgers, who have dropped eight of their last 11 games to fall to 30-41 this season.
Matt Guerrier (2-3) was pegged with the loss after giving up a pair of runs in the seventh inning.
"We just couldn't get the outs we needed late in the game. Matt has been throwing the ball well, about as well as anyone out there. We just don't get the outs we need," said Dodgers manager Don Mattingly.
Los Angeles starter Stephen Fife gave up two runs -- one earned -- on four hits while fanning six over six innings.
The Padres pushed a pair of runs across in the seventh inning to go up 4-2. Yasmani Grandal smoked a ground-rule double to left then scored on Ciriaco's triple to center field, spelling the end of Guerrier's night.
Paco Rodriguez replaced Guerrier on the mound and got pinch-hitter Mark Kotsay to pop out. Rodriguez then intentionally walked Logan Forsythe to put runners on the corners and Headley roped a base hit to center to score Ciriaco.
With a runner on first and two outs in the eighth, Uribe lifted a fly ball to right-center field. Alexi Amarista made an incredible diving catch in the gap with the ball slicing away from him to save a potential run.
Ciriaco gave the Padres some insurance in the home half with his two-run homer to left field. Grandal singled before Ciriaco belted his second homer of the year.
Ellis added a solo homer in the ninth to account for the final difference.
Puig's solo shot gave the Dodgers a 1-0 lead in the first inning.
San Diego broke through with a pair of runs in the fifth. With runners on second and third, Marquis singled to left field to score Amarista. Forsythe followed with an RBI single to right to plate Ciriaco.
The Dodgers tied the game in the sixth inning. Hanley Ramirez and Andre Ethier opened the frame with back-to-back singles to put runners on the corners before Uribe lifted a sacrifice fly to right.
San Diego has won seven straight home games, its longest home streak since
winning six straight August 1-25, 2008 ... Grandal had two hits and scored a
pair of runs ... Marquis hasn't lost since April 22 ... Puig has hit safely in
14 of his first 16 games.
Portland State fired football coach Nigel Burton on Wednesday after the Vikings struggled to a 3-9 season.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.
The Chicago Bears have placed guard/center Brian de la Puente on injured reserve because of an ankle injury.
The Arizona Diamondbacks have reportedly come to terms with Cuban power-hitting outfielder Yasmany Tomas on a six-year, $68.5 million contract.
San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich missed Wednesday night's game against Indiana after undergoing a minor medical procedure.
Martin Brodeur's quest to continue his NHL career hasn't ended just yet.

Local Police and Fire Departments Participate in Joint TrainingPosted Jun. 23, 2014
Kent State University Police Services, the city of Kent police and fire and the Brimfield police and fire departments participated in joint training on Tuesday, June 10, and Thursday, June 12, in Johnson Hall on the Kent Campus.
The eight-hour training days included classroom training in topics such as emergency wound care, tactical movements and secondary explosive devices, and exercises involving officer solo entry and rescue teams in the hall's rooms and hallways.
"The purpose of the training is to learn how to provide treatment to wounded people faster," says Sgt. Jim Campbell of the Kent State Police Department. "We wanted to get all departments involved and on the same page because they would all be helping in the case of an emergency."
This training was the first of its kind and focused primarily on what to do in the event of a school shooting. Campbell hopes the training occurs more often in the future.
"During the gun discharge outside Bowman Hall where the suspect accidently shot himself in the spring, all of the departments responded," says Sgt. Nancy Shefchuk of the Kent State Police Department. "So all of us working together is important."

"Water sustains all life. Her songs begin in the tiniest of raindrops, transform to flowing rivers, travel to majestic oceans and thundering clouds and back to earth again. When water is threatened, all living things are threatened."-Indigenous Declaration on Water, July 8, 2001
Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill — it's two years later, and the horrible effects continue. We hear all the time about external dangers, like terrorism, that threaten our safety and way of life. But the poisoning of the water and the destruction of the ecosystems that sustain that way of life seems unstoppable.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
No doot aboot it: QB security tops on Trestman's list
Now that the "zone read option" has been making its rounds in the NFL -- a play that has been the mainstay of offences in the CFL for years -- it should come as no surprise the National Football League is also looking north of the border for help when it comes to protecting one of their star quarterbacks.
Chicago Bears general manager Phil Emery told reporter Larry Mayer on the team's website multiple reasons why he hired Marc Trestman as the newest head coach of his football team. He listed Trestman's intellect, competitiveness and professionalism as key components of his winning sales pitch. My favourite reason, of course, was how Emery noted Trestman's ability to adapt to conditions in Canada as something he admired: "The mental toughness that it takes to go into some place that you've never been before, that they don't know you or anything about you, where they speak a foreign language."
The things we never even think about or consider, living up here on Mars. But I digress.
Do not kid yourself into believing Trestman is now the head coach of the Bears because he didn't know how to speak French and yet still won two championships. Marc Trestman is the head coach of the Chicago Bears because that organization wants him to do for Jay Cutler what he did for Anthony Calvillo -- take their quarterback from punching bag all the way to the promenade.
It has been noted several times in these column inches Calvillo was well on his way out of the CFL before Trestman arrived on the scene. Defensive linemen in Canada were having their way with Calvillo and it was widely speculated he was done, either by voluntary retirement or by physical incapacitation. He looked like his spirit was broken and his body wasn't far behind as the 2007 season came to a close.
When Trestman showed up in 2008 though, not only did he rejuvenate and resurrect Calvillo's career, but he implemented an offence more productive than any other during his five-year steamroll through the CFL.
Jay Cutler in 2012, just like Calvillo in 2007, was one of the most sacked and abused quarterbacks in the entire NFL. Since neither Calvillo nor Cutler are of the Brett Favre variety -- a pivot who was seemingly impervious to pain and even fed off it -- the more they get hit, the less productive and more prone to chucking and ducking they become.
There will be differences to be sure, but expect the 2013 version of the Bears' offence to revolve around protecting Cutler and getting the football out of his hands in the most expedient of fashions. Marc believes in sacrificing offensive options for QB security, so once Cutler gets used to the idea he is no longer a human pi±ata, he will stop flinching in the pocket and start executing on a more regular basis. And just like AC, Cutler plays his best football when his jersey is devoid of grass stains.
It is worth mentioning Trestman isn't exactly being set up for success down south. Out of all the head coaching vacancies available this year, he is taking over a team that actually had a winning record in 2012 at 10-6 and anything short of tying that mark will be viewed as a failure.
Furthermore, regardless of his 17 years of experience coaching in the NFL, and the fact he is American, the biggest criticism of Trestman was the fact his last gig was as a CFL head coach. Believe me when I say he will have to earn every ounce of respect not only from his players, but from the local media magistrates as well.
As a rookie player down south, NFL offensive linemen used to tell me how their coach would berate them by saying, "You just got beat by a Canadian!" whenever I was victorious in our individual drills. When you come from the Great White North and make your living in the States playing football, proving your worth is easier said than done.
Hopefully, Canadian phenom Israel Idonije can help pave the way for this Quebec coaching sensation in Chicago, as we all wait and see whether Trestman's systems and schemes translate to the NFL and whether he still remembers how to speak 'Merican.

Late last week, the BBC launched a new beta version of the web iPlayer, the on-demand TV service which has made a considerable impact since its launch in 2007.
Announcing the beta launch in a press release, the BBC stated that the new iPlayer has "a fresh new look and functionality to make it simpler, more personal and connected".
So, what's new? First up is a new interface, which separates TV and radio content and sets aside three 'discovery areas'(TV Channels, Categories and an area at the top giving access to four panels) which provides easier access to programme content.
There's new functionality too. Viewers can recommend content within their existing social networks on Facebook and Twitter, suggested programmes are recommended, based upon viewing and listening behaviour and there is more opportunity to personalise the iPlayer experience. The screen is also bigger and video is played in higher quality.
So how well has the new functionality been implemented and does the new interface improve the user experience?
The beta version has benefitted from dividing TV and radio content into two separate elements. The current version of the iPlayer has a vast array of panels and links, while the beta version looks simpler, less fussy and as a result, appears easier to navigate around and use.
The downside, of course, is that users have to notice the link to 'Radio' in order to access audio material.
The three 'discovery areas' in the beta iPlayer are clearly visible, allowing a faceted approach to locating programmes: by TV Channel, by Categories, and through four panels at the top of the page, 'Featured', 'For You', 'Most Popular' and 'Friends' as well as via a search tool in the top right hand corner.
These offer a greater range of ways to search for programmes of interest than is available on the current iPlayer and all without the need for a navigation bar at the top of the page.
Unlike with product recommendations on Amazon, It is not possible to remove programmes suggested to the viewer in the 'For You' area. Allowing for further user refinement of the suggestions made might help allow even more tailored content to be provided and so improve the usefulness of this tool.
Perhaps of most interest is the 'Friends' panel, in the top discovery area. This allows a viewer to link in to their Facebook and Twitter accounts and recommend programmes to their existing social networks and receive recommendations in return. It isn't, however, clear if it is possible to recommend programmes to individual contacts, or whether it is only possible to share recommendations with the entire existing network.
Nor is it clear who a recommendation has come from. Clicking into the 'Friends' panel provides a link to find out how to 'Share recommendations with friends'. On clicking this, the user is immediately taken to a sign-in / registration page, which is somewhat disconcerting given that at this point all they are expecting is information on what they should do, rather than being launched into the process.
In fact, the whole experience of creating a profile on the website is a little daunting. The 'Register now' link is not particularly visible, compared to the sign-in link but the greatest problem is that none of the benefits of registering on the BBC website are listed so there is no incentive to do so. A short list, in bullet-point format, of the key benefits of registering would probably result in more people doing so.
Even once a profile has been successfully created, the process of establishing the link into Facebook and Twitter networks is not straightforward. The user is required to provide details of their Facebook and Twitter accounts, in order to create the links.
Although this is a necessary step, it may act as a barrier to some users, particularly since linking to a Twitter account looks as though it will require the user to leave the iPlayer to do so.
Given the increased personalisation promised in the new version, it is a little surprising that the customisable functionality of the BBC homepage has not been replicated here.
It isn't possible to re-position the discovery areas to match how the viewer wants to search for content, nor edit the channels and categories to show only those of interest. While it is possible to create a personalised list of categories, this is not particularly easy to do.
The viewer needs to click into one of the category types and then notice the link to 'Add to My Categories' which lies next to the title, and outside the main area of the screen to which the user is drawn.
A number of other features have also been implemented. It is possible to mark a programme as a favourite, which means that all other shows in the series will automatically be saved. Programmes saved as favourites can be sorted by those that are new, or those that are expiring.
Programmes that are showing now across the range of BBC channels can be accessed from the iPlayer homepage, within the TV Channels discovery area.
However, users are likely to be drawn to the list of programmes underneath the day of the week navigation bar, rather than the static 'On Now' image and so may miss this functionality.
Navigating within sections adopts an uncommon approach. While the dots and arrows employed makes it looks like a carousel system, by which content is scrolled through, using the navigation actually refreshes the page with entirely new material.
In summary, the look and functionality of the beta iPlayer is a significant improvement on the previous version. The tools should make it easier to find programmes of interest and there is a lot of interesting potential in the opportunity to link into existing social networks to both recommend and receive recommended programmes.
There are a few niggles of course, but that is why it can be good practice to launch in beta and get users to identify many of these on your behalf.

Market research firm Infonetics Research released excerpts from its new Worldwide M2M Service Provider Leadership Analysis report, which profiles and analyzes the 10 largest machine-to-machine (M2M) service providers based on cellular M2M connections served: AT&T, China Mobile, China Unicom, Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Sprint, Telefónica, Telenor, Verizon, and Vodafone. The 28-page report identifies the factors for success that are common among the world's leading M2M providers.

"One of the key traits that enables the service providers in our machine-to-machine leadership report to be successful amid the great breadth and chaos of M2M is focus—the ability to identify the key vertical segments and hone resources on those that offer scale and growth. In the boundless world of M2M and the Internet of Things, focus is table stakes," says Godfrey Chua, directing analyst for M2M and IoT at Infonetics Research.
Chua adds: "Focus also means understanding the unique nature of M2M services and the importance of enabling technologies such as connectivity and application platforms purpose-built for M2M, like those from Axeda and Jasper. Platforms are essential to scaling and differentiating services and bringing solutions to market faster, allowing monetization to begin at an earlier stage."
- Benefitting from the sheer scale of the Chinese market, China Mobile is the global M2M connections leader, with over 32 million M2M connections served in 2013 (+43% from 2012)
- AT&T, the reigning M2M leader in North America, comes in #2 overall in connections thanks to a large U.S. M2M market coupled with global roaming agreements
- Hot on the heels of AT&T, Vodafone rounds out the top 3, owing to its strong global presence, breadth of operations, and homegrown connectivity platform
- Currently, the most popular vertical M2M segment among service providers is automotive/transport/logistics
Infonetics' annual M2M service provider leadership report profiles and analyzes 10 of the leading M2M service providers in the world influencing the Internet of Things (IoT), currently AT&T, China Mobile, China Unicom, Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Sprint, Telefónica, Telenor, Verizon, and Vodafone. These companies together account for over 100 million cellular M2M connections, nearly half the global M2M cellular installed base.
The report includes global M2M service revenue and connection forecasts and profiles providers' approaches to and activities in the M2M/IoT space, examining their M2M connections, total M2M revenue, scope of M2M operations (including partnerships and agreements), and resources (people) devoted to M2M.

I you can't find it, you can add some chilli powder and cayenne pepper. If you don't like spicy, skip the Mrs. Dash, maybe add some thyme, marjoram and rosemary for a twist provençale.

OK, my 2 cents worth...
when I worked as an electrician:
that lady that calls me out to her house because her desk lamp isn't working, turns out that there wasn't a bulb in the lamp... gee wonder why it didn't work
the emergency where I get called out at 2 a.m. because "nothing works" in the house. I get there maybe 45 minutes after I get the call, all the outside lights are on, as are most of them in the house. When I ask the customer what the problem is, I'm told that the light in the bathroom "just stopped working". I asked if they had checked the circuit breaker, they didn't know what a circuit breaker was... I reset the breaker... total time on the job about 10 minutes... they got charged 3 hrs at the emergency rate and I got 2 hrs of OT
We all knew that when we went to work for the railroad that we worked "on call". We knew that we were not "guaranteed" to work 40 hrs a week. We all knew that it was not only possible, but likely that we'd work in excess of 12 hrs every time we go to work. Why do so many of us bitch and complain about the phone ringing, going to work, and the fact that we "had" to work 10 hrs today? Yes, I'm just as guilty as everyone else LOL
Idiots who don't realize what those flashing red light at the crossing are for, or why there is this bar (that strongly resembles something that you're not s'posed to go around) is in the middle of the road when the lights are flashing. Chances are there's a train coming.
those who live next to a railroad track, then complain that the trains make too much noise... HELLO??? chances are the track was there when you purchased the house... did you fail to notice that you had railroad tracks in your back yard? (the same can be said for those who buy a house near an airport, then complain about the noise)
OK I think I'm done...
well almost... some of us sleep when we get the chance... time of day often means little or nothing... guess that is what black out curtains and ear plugs are for!
