Jet Blue Blew It
Posted by
NYC (JFK), NEW YORK -- I can't imagine what happened on 08-08-08 for Jet Blue airline.
I was flying home from JFK - New York City to Pittsburgh on the above date.
Got to the airport only to find my flight was going to be delayed by 3 hours. As I looked around the Jet Blue Terminal and started to have conversations with other passengers I realized the whole system was out of sorts. People where laying on the floor, curled up on chairs trying to sleep etc.(being stranded for up to 9-10 hours already) and why I found out, was a delay in the whole system. Planes were ready to go but had no crew. Crews were ready to go but had no planes.
Scheduled flights were canceled to various parts of the country, leaving many passengers stranded, looking for alternative planes with added costs for moving. People with babies and children. Announcements were few and far between. I was routed from Gate 6 at 11:45 pm to Gate 15 at 10:35 pm to Gate 18 by way of shuttle bus for 11:15pm. People passing by in the shuttle bus line were hysterical at the inept service. Many people had been shuttled back and forth between gates several times as their gates were changed.
Whew, what a seriously defective way to handle a misstep on the airlines part.
Some people said it was weather related, but as we searched our laptops and called homes we couldn't find a single incident of really bad weather anywhere.
Over the years I've been in planes that have taken off in storms, winter ice (with planes de-icing more than once) fog, turbulence, So if there was a weather related delay on 08-08-08 no one could find it.
I would think it was a total domino factor. One delay by a late crew or a faulty plane would set the tone for the complete ruination of a travel day.
My biggest complaint is the lack of communication on the part of Jet Blue staff. The way we found out our flight was leaving earlier than the info. board said was by one of our group checking online through her phone.
There happens to be a customers Bill of Rights by Jet Blue that says the following:
Customers whose flight is delayed for 1-1:59 hours after scheduled departure time due to a Controllable Irregularity are entitled to a $25 Voucher good for future travel on JetBlue.
Not one of us was offered this compensation. Our flight was scheduled to leave at 8:35 pm and didn't board until after 11:00 pm and wasn't able to take off until after midnight.
We were truly treated BEST by the man guiding us to the shuttle bus and by the bus driver.
When I flew to NYC on Jet Blue I was totally surprised and delighted, but it doesn't pay to be too optimistic about airline travel. It is at best a precarious, fine line between good and awful.
Thank you for taking my Review.

You said it yourself don't be too optimistic when traveling by air. Airlines are a very complex business model, fact is you got home - not as scheduled but you got home. Weather incidents can and do effect aircraft across the country - sunny and clear between your city pairs means nothing.
On a side note...sad to see how PIT didn't support a legacy with the loss of PIT as a USAirways base
Ben There on 08/10/2008:
Also remember that bad weather early on in the day at an airlines hub will cause delays all day long. Even though there is nothing going on at 10pm does not mean that all the planes were stuck on the ground for 3 hours at 10am.
Ponie on 08/10/2008:
Don't know if this would have had any effect on your flight, but in our area on Friday (Detroit metro) we had hail/thunderstorms ripping through here that dropped the temperature 18 degrees in 15 minutes. Trees uprooted, homes damaged, power interrupted and thousands haven't had power restored as of this moment. Weather is still unseasonaly cool. It's about 1:15pm, and the outside temp is 63. If there's a silver lining to no power, guess it's best to get it during weather like this than when it's 95 out there.
annee35 on 08/12/2008:
I too was victim to this "weather" story, Friday night , fling JFK to Rochester, when I arrived at the airport the plane was 20 or so min late, then within 1/2 hour went from a 5:20 departure to an 8:50 departure. weather was given as the reason, which did not make any sense b/c flights were being cancelled all over the country.
then again on Sunday , my flight was cancelled and they did not call me, (actually to be fair they called my NY home phone, even though my cell phone is reported to be the one they were supposed to call, according to customer service)
I was able to get on to a 3:30 PM flight on Monday (AUG 11)
Then, just for fun I checked on the flight, and lo and behold, on Monday the 11th I was told that my flight was cancelled, again because of "weather". They could not get me on a flight until Tuesday at 11:30 am.
Fearing more random "weather" cancellations, we drove to Manhattan yesterday, so I can actually go to work today.
Needless to say I cancelled my flight today.
I am very sour about my experience with JetBlu. They were clearly having an organizational problem, and blamed the weather. Not a good thing.
Bruce Le on 08/13/2008:
The cancelled flight 121 from JFK to MCO scheduled for departure at 07:00AM on Monday, 08/11/2008, was nothing short of a horrific experience. It appears that the cancellation was due to a "weather story". The night before my departure I attempted to get 3 boarding passes online but the program refused to provide me with the boarding passes. Likewise, the program NEVER notified me that the flight was indeed cancelled until I arrived at the JFK airport at 5:30AM, 1.5 hours ahead of the scheduled flight.
Jet Blue's customer service personnel stated that they could not do anything for me except reschedule my flight for WEDNESDAY, 08/13/2008. I asked the customer service personnel if they could locate a flight into Tampa as opposed to Orlando but they could only offer us 2 seats. I immediately phoned Jet Blue's customer service and they located 3 seats to Tampa with a 10:45AM departure time ON MONDAY, 08/11/08. Due to inclement weather at JFK, the plane SAT ON THE TAXIWAY FOR 2 HOURS. Finally, the flight arrived in Tampa at 3:45PM.
My experience involved the following: lack of pertinent information and lack of personnel (even supervisory level!) etiquette, that when combined, left me very dissatisfied with the way this Airline handled my situation. It was stressful and disrespectful.
wgaguy1984 on 08/14/2008:
These last two posters need to realize that airlines don't control weather. Annee, it makes perfect sense that your flight could be further delayed by weather, especially if other flights are being cancelled, which, to my mind, makes your delay make more, not less, sense. And yes, there was bad weather two days in a row, any airline operating out of EWR LGA or JFK had flights cancelled.
TOK on 08/20/2008:
WOW. Now I am really annoyed after reading these postings. I too suffered the same problems on 08-08-08. I was supposed to leave SFO to Ft Lauderdale with a connection in JFK on 8-8 at 8am. I received a vm on 8-7 at about 4pm saying this flight was cancelled due to "air traffic control." When I called, they told me they weren't sure what the problem was. But they put me on the next available flight, which would have been 10:25PM, basically losing an entire day!!! I took that flight thinking there were no alternatives. I received a vm again on 8-7 at 730pm saying this flight was cancelled!! When I called, the lady said there were issues with the plane coming into SFO. She never mentioned anything about weather in JFK. If I had known, I would have tried to find a different connecting city. To make matters worse, I could no longer cancel my hotel stay of Friday since it past the cutoff. In addition, I was needed to drive from FLL to Miami on Saturday for a cruise. The lady told me she could get me on a flight Saturday morning that would get me to FLL by 2:30pm. Well, too late as the cruise ship would have already left by then. I finally got her to look into Oakland Intl and we flew a red eye and got to FLL by 11am and made it to Miami and my cruise with 3 hrs to spare. I was about to write a letter to JETBLUE asking for compensation for my lost hotel but it sounds like we are all SOL based on your postings. Never been more stressed for a vacation.

Flight 591 January 27, 2008
Posted by
NEW YORK -- On January 27,2008 flight 591 left white plains,ny at 7:55 am. We taxied for take off and we were told we needed to return to the terminal due to a ventilation problem. We were told the problem was fixed and finally departed at 10:00 am.
We began to take off and we were in the air but not at the correct altitude.The pilot came on and said we needed to be diverted to JFK because we were still having a problem. We waited on the plane for a mechanic and we were told that the problem had been solved that the mechanic at white plains had shut off a valve that was supposed to be open for the cabin pressure which is why we could not reach altitude for flighting. This was a commercial mechanic which was clearly stated by the pilot. We started to taxi after 2 hrs waiting and now due to weather there was a 30 plane wait and the airport was considered close due to weather. We were given warm water to drink and the usual snacks. After waiting another 2 hrs the pilot decided to return to the JFK terminal and decide what to do with the flight. A rep from Jetblue cams to the plane and said that the plane needed to be refueled and have lab checks done before the flight could leave,we must stay on the plane.This is at 2:30. We have been on this plane sine 7:30am, people with children and older people and angry people. We were then told we could leave the airplane but stay close by. We were told that a rep would come by and issue food coupons but we needed to leave the terminal to get the food,many people opted to stay where we were in case they decided to get the flight underway.
We were misinformed by many reps during this time regarding rescheduling and transportation back to White Plains, NY where the flight originated. We were told the flight was cancelled then we were told the flight was not and Jetblue was trying to get another plane for us because our problem was mechanical not due to weather. At 5:00 they cancelled the flight and we waited for transportation back to white plains. We were all advised to call the 800 number to reschedule our flights however because there were many "weather related" cancellations, we were either on hold or disconnected. Eventually we arrived back at white plains where we were able to get a bit more assistance then at JFK's Jetblue associates.
All the passengers seemed to feel that we were being shoved around and that no one really cared if we were satisfied or not. Up till now we were satisfied with Jetblue,but this last experience was very discouraging to think that the consumer is treated so unfairly when without the consumer many of the airlines would not exist. I am following this up with Jetblue and the Better Business Bureau in our area.
Thank you

The original problem was mechanical. Weather just added to the situation and made things worse.
Ryan84 on 08/02/2008:
What doesn't make sense to me is that when you said the plane was diverted to JFK, you didn't mention anything about the plane needing to fly around for a couple hours to burn enough fuel to land. Then you mention, only after the plane landed at JFK, then taxied, then once again returned to the gate, that they needed to refuel. Any pilot would have refueled the first time as they burned too much fuel during the diversion! Another thing is, where was this plane headed to? I find it hard to believe that JetBlue had to return you to White Plains to rescheduale. JFK is their hub and they fly to every destination from JFK as they do from White Plains.

Luggage Problem
Posted by
LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA -- I've always enjoyed flying with Jetblue & I would recommend my family & friends to use them! However, recently I had a problem re:my luggage. I flew from Long Beach to JFK(Aug 28th) & returned to Long Beach (Sept 24th). I did not unpack until the following day.
I had placed a pair of OKNY JEANS sandals in the front compartment of my luggage; had not worn them yet. The Left sandal on its side; instep & heel area were broken off. The Left sandal, its toe & instep area were broken off. To receive that much damage to my sandals, my luggage must have been thrown really hard & crushed under something? I was so disappointed, I truly loved flying JetBlue!

Flight Delays
Posted by
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- My flight was number 236, schedule to depart at 1:44 am on August 29. The flight attendant notifies me they had a delayed and was leaving at 3:30 am, but the flight was really leaving at 4:16 am. When you notify someone, the airline should be clear enough and not give misleading information. As result, I will stop my traveling with JetBlue company. My child is tired and hungry. She wants to get home.
I will not recommend you to any my friends and family.I will think twice to travel with JetBlue, and all my reviews will refer to this inconvenience.

A friend of mine was flying to NYC yesterday and due to weather his flight - like many others - was diverted. When this happen it can take a while for planes and crews to catch up.
These weather problems create big headaches for passengers and airlines, and things often change quickly... I wonder if the airline was misleading you, or simply gave you the most correct information at the time. It looks like your flight didn't take off till almost 5am, so the time changed again after you posted this.
A lot of airlines will simply cancel a flight early on instead of having lengthy delays that will change several times. This strands people without hotels and missing a few days of vacation, but the upside is they won't have to spend many hours waiting on a flight that keeps getting delayed. Jetblue, however, is known for completing flights even if it means a long wait.
Weedwhacked on 08/29/2013:
You might want to stop flying altogether since delays happen with all airlines.

Damaged luggage
Posted by
FOREST HILLS, NEW YORK -- On red-eye return flight from CA my suitcase was destroyed. I didn't know it until I got home. I had help getting the bag and getting into the car service. I called customer service and was told I should have brought it to the counter when I got off the plane and I have to bring it back to the airport. I am on disability and cannot take a car service back to the airport to bring them the bag they damaged. I even wrote a letter to the President of jetBlue but did not receive a reply. I am extremely disappointed.

It does appear that you must do it in person, according to the Contract of Carriage: http://www.jetblue.com/p/jetblue_coc.pdf
It is in the first four lines of Section 22 (A).
CUontheFlipSide on 10/24/2012:
They will justifiably raise the possibility of the damage happening after the suitcase left their control. This is the reason it has to be claimed when you retrieve your bag.

Airline Temporary Passes for Military Parents
Posted by
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- Today, July 21, 2012 my husband and I took our son O'Hare Airport at 5:45 AM to drop him off for his destination to Japan. He is a Marine and he was in Afganistan for seven months. Also he was on leave for three weeks. When we approached the Jet Blue counter the supervisor, Jesse, informed us that we cannot get a temporary pass to accompany our son so we can see him depart.
All the other airlines give us the courtesy and gratitude that our son along with other soldiers are fighting for this country. We insisted with Jesse but he gave us the reason that our son is old enough to travel by himself. We thought this was a very stupid response. Can you explain this situation of being denied temporary passes to us?

This is a public site, I would suggest you remove All of your personal information.
frak on 07/21/2012:
My first thought was what difference does it make that your son is in the military, why not give gate passes to everyone's families. But then I remembered how crowded the gates already are without adding a bunch of people who are not flying. I have no problem with JB's policy. Hang out with your son in a pre-gate restaurant or other waiting area until its time for him to head to the gate.
trmn8r on 07/21/2012:
I have never heard of temporary passes for people to travel through the security checkpoint and enter the gate area.
However, it makes sense that a youngster travelling alone could be attended by a guardian to the gate. I think this is where the comment arose from regarding your son's age. The policy makes sense to me - I don't see why there should be an exception for relatives of members of the military.
yoke on 07/21/2012:
Most airlines have no problem with family members being with service members deploying at the gate. Shame on JB for not allowing parents to be with their son the last few moments before he goes off to protect our country. We were just allowed to be with my sons girlfriend before she left for boot camp and that was with United.
DebtorBasher on 07/21/2012:
Regardless of what their policy is, that age remark was uncalled for and unprofessional.
My thank you and prayers will go with your son.
CowboyFan on 07/22/2012:
Debtor Basher - it was only after the parents "insisted" (probably means demands) with the manager that the remark was made.
DebtorBasher on 07/22/2012:
It was still uncalled for and unprofessional. I know people can get to you when you're dealing with the public, but if you're going to accept a position working with the public, you have to have A LOT of self control...and I tell ya, it's not always going to be easy and when you make a remark like that, it makes you look bad, not the customer.

Fare Jacking
Posted by
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS -- I attempted to book a round trip ticket from Boston to Las Vegas. After going through everything through seat selection (and upgrading to "Even More Legroom"), I pressed "Continue" and was bounced from the site. Hit back button and attempted to re-book and fare magically increased on return flight. Called to speak with a supervisor who continuously lied to me (i. e., all JetBlue.com activity is on "my computer", not on JetBlue server; could not adjust fare through direct adjustment or issuance of credit, etc). She would not even give her name. Not the way to run a business - especially one that will be suffering once again as the economic recovery appears short-lived. Customer service should mean something again. One more extremely loyal customer gone.

I'm wondering if someone else was booking seats at the same time you were, and so the price jumped before you were able to purchase them.
Anonymous on 06/09/2012:
I don't see where the agent lied to you. They cannot see what is happening on your computer. I worked in the internet department for an airline once (not Jet Blue) and we were not able to access your personal server. We also didn't honor online prices over the phones. Sounds like Jet Blue doesn't honor online prices either. The only time I would honor the price was if the site crashed and there wasn't a ticket booked already.
trmn8r on 06/09/2012:
Airline fares change by the second, based on various factors. My guess is a large one is number of seats remaining. I understand your frustration that an apparent glitch caused you to have to spend more, but I don't know that this is necessarily "fare jacking".

JetBlue Finds Reasons to Deny You TrueBlue Points
Posted by
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- I flew JetBlue to Ft. Myers from Westchester on May 16, 2011 and back on May 19th, 2011. I flew JetBlue again to Tampa on August 22nd, and back on the 23rd, 2011.
I realized just a few days ago that I never received credit for either flight. When I called up JetBlue, they cited their rules that "if it's after 90 days, you don't get credit for the flight."
When I asked them what the purpose of the 90 day rule was, no one would answer me - they just said it's JetBlue policy. I asked for the supervisor, she wouldn't answer it either. She then proceeded to lecture me on how there are rules in life, and I need to know how to follow them.
Bogus. I have flown JetBlue countless times over the years, and this is not the company I once was so fond of. Where is David N.'s leadership when you need it.
Bottom line, if you fly JetBlue - you earned the true blue points. The only purpose of a 90 day cut-off is to deny any busy (business traveling 20+ weeks a year, 2 kids, no spare time to check the website regularly to see if I have credit) consumers credit for their flights.
I will vote with my wallet. After my next flight in March (already booked - unfortunately), I will no longer give my business to JetBlue.

JetBlue InFlight Crew is RUDE!!
Posted on
FLL, FLORIDA -- This past Friday(1/13/2012), I flew with Jetblue on flight 509 from Newark to Ft. Lauderdale. My inflight experience with the flight attendant was horrific. The flight attendant whose name plate read "Jane", was so rude that half-way through the flight, the lady sitting next to me (total stranger) asked me what had I done to the attendant and if I knew her outside of the flight. Jane refused to serve me inflight beverages, a snack or take my trash at the end of the inflight service. My complaint of the sound jack in the armrest not working was met with a curt "and...". The outrageous rudeness of the flight attendant is very uncharacteristic of JetBlue crew members, and is more the behavior that I expect from an American Airlines employee. Never in my life have I had an incident with a member of the inflight crew, nor do I expect to be treated so badly during a flight.

Hijacked by JetBlue
Posted by
I purchased tickets on JetBlue for my family based on the published flight schedule. I received an email about a month before my flight saying the flight times had changed. With these new times I would miss my connection to the Long Island Railroad and in turn miss an important event I had on my return leg. I called customer service to change my flight to an earlier one since the new times were not good. They had the nerve to charge me a change fee for each ticket and pay the current difference in airfare even though the new flight cost less than the original flight. The entire change transaction would have cost more than what I had paid for the tickets. I asked to speak to a supervisor and she actually accused me of trying to take advantage of JetBlue! The reason they gave for not allowing me to change is that the change needed to be at least a few hours before they would waive the fees. Really....a few hours? Basically they scheduled a change and are now trying to profit from this action. My family will now be hostage to their poor customer service.

I was with you until you compared the flight change to being held hostage. They are not forcing you to take this flight. They explained their policy and you can change the flight if you pay their fees. Is it right? No, but are you being held 'hostage?' No not so much
Blackfang321 on 02/07/2011:
I can understand how the OP would feel held hostage. What I don't understand is the OP saying the "change needed to be at least a few hours". As in you called right before boarding the flight and they charged fees? Because you said you got the email a month before the flight. Or do you mean you had to wait a few hours after getting the email? Because that should have been easy. Or were there no flights avaibale "in a few hours" time of yours and hence nothing worked? I'm just confused!
Still though...sounds crummy.
yoke on 02/07/2011:
Since the new flights were not good for the OP Jetblue should have worked with them and not charge to change the flights. They bought the tickets in good faith that they would be on the flight they wanted and for reason. JetBlue now needs to make them whole or give them a complete refund.
What was the reason Jetblue gave for the changes they made?
Ben There on 02/07/2011:
So by how minutes did your flight change?
FlShopper on 02/07/2011:
JetBlue shouldn't have charged a change fee if they were the ones who imposed a change. When my son was returning to school in ATL in early January, we got an email (as well as a phone call!) from Delta the day before his flight to let us know his flight had been cancelled; he was allowed to change it to any other flight that day free of charge.
Easy peasy.
Ben There on 02/07/2011:
FIshopper - there is a difference between a last minute cancellation and a schedule change for a flight that is not departing for another month.
Most airlines do allow for refunds or changes in the event of a schedule change, but there are some limitations... If the new time is within say 30 minutes of the original time they don't budge. This time varies by airline.
Unhappy JetBlue Guest on 06/23/2011:
So my return flight from Orlando to Buffalo was changed and interfered with plans that I had for that night in Orlando with a friend. But because the change is not 4 hours or greater nothing will be done. I was told that I can accept the change or be charged an addition $100.00 per person to change. Two problems occur with that first is I am not looking to have to pay more money second the time I am looking for is no longer available because that flight was just cancelled the new flight I have been put on is the latest outbound available. So in talking to the agent my only choice is to take the $200.00 cancellation fee and get the balance of my tickets applied as a credit to another flight with JetBlue then pay the difference for a new flight or accept the new itinerary. So I accepted the new itinerary. I also asked for some kind of credit or any kind of customer service we are sorry type of thing but nothing is given. I must say I have never had this issue flying with other airlines. At least you get an "I am very sorry unfortunately that's all we can do at this time if something comes up we can try and reschedule" But no I was told "that's all they have at this time and if you want to change it later if something comes up you will have to pay a Change fee of $100 per person" So great if my original flight is available again I have to pay a $200.00 change fee and any increase or other fees they may have for that flight. I paid the extra to fly JetBlue because they had the flight times I wanted even though I have to pay for my second bag. You would think that with all these charges that at some point you would show some feeling for issues you cause your guest.

County Business Patterns has been produced as a consistent, annual series since 1964 and ZIP Code Business Patterns since 1994. Printed reports were published annually through 2004 and at irregular intervals dating back to 1946. Printed volumes in major depository libraries are the only forms in which data are available prior to 1986.
Given the ease of accessing this data via the Internet through American FactFinder or .csv files the Census Bureau no longer produces data disks or publications for the County Business Patterns series. Complete County Business Patterns series data are available on disc (CD-ROM/DVD-ROM) for 1986-2004. These data discs include software for creating County Business Patterns data files compatible with popular database and spreadsheet software. You can order County Business Patterns data disks from the Census Catalog.
ZIP Code Business Patterns data are available on data disks for 1994-2004. You can also order ZBP data disks from the Census Catalog.
To order by phone, contact the Census Bureau's Marketing Services Office at 301-763-INFO (4636).
The comparability of data over time may be affected by changes in industry classifications, definitions of establishments, establishment's active status, and/or changes to geographic boundaries (actual or statistically-defined areas).
Since 1998, County Business Patterns has been tabulated based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Data were tabulated according to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) System for prior periods. For more information on the SIC system, see the SIC Information Page.
Prior to 2012, County Business Patterns lagged by one year in the adoption of the classification system employed in the Economic Census. Starting in 2012, the classification system was changed in the same year.
Classification changes and the realignment of industries introduced in the 2012 County Business Patterns are explained in this update.
For Puerto Rico County Business Patterns data, the change from SIC to NAICS occurred in 2003.
For details, refer to the description of the correspondence between the SIC system and the 1997 NAICS.
Classification changes introduced in the 2003 County Business Patterns are explored in detail in the Bridge Between 2002 NAICS and 1997 NAICS.
Classification changes introduced in the 1998 County Business Patterns are explored in detail in the Bridge Between NAICS and SIC.
In the 1998 - 2002 County Business Patterns publications, corporate, subsidiary, and regional managing offices were tabulated in NAICS Sector 55. All other auxiliaries were tabulated in NAICS 95. Starting with the 2003 County Business Patterns publication, corporate, subsidiary, and regional managing offices are still published in NAICS Sector 55, but the other auxiliaries are tabulated in the industry of the service performed. The other auxiliaries were coded into ten separate NAICS classifications listed in the auxiliary section of the 1997 Bridge Between NAICS and SIC [PDF].
In 1997 and earlier County Business Patterns data series based on SIC classification, auxiliary establishments were similarly excluded from SIC categories, but were reported as a separate data line for those counties where they were present.
Definitions and coverage differences may affect the direct comparison of Economic Census and County Business Patterns data. See Definitions for an explanation of the data items contained in County Business Patterns.
The Economic Census generally uses respondent reported data. County Business Patterns uses a combination of reported Company Organization Survey data and administrative records data. Although efforts are made to resolve significant differences in the data, differences are known to exist. See How the Data are Collected for further information on how the County Business Patterns data are produced.
Some large companies report different activities at the same location as separate profit centers. The County Business Patterns program treats each profit center as a separate establishment. The Economic Census reporting may combine the profit centers into one establishment. This results in establishment count differences due to differences in how the data are collected.
Counties: County boundary changes may occur between each publication year; however these changes are implemented in batch once every 5 years. Such changes are detailed in the following page: Substantial Changes to Counties and County Equivalent Entities: 1970-Present. This is primarily done to maintain data consistency and comparability over time.
Metropolitan and Micropolitan Areas: Metropolitan areas are redefined after each population census and new criteria are generally introduced at that point. Most metropolitan areas tabulated in CBP for 2007-2008, those defined as of November 2007, had at least some boundary changes relative to the areas tabulated in 2006 and prior years. Lists of counties that comprise each metropolitan area as of different time periods can be accessed here.
Micropolitan areas were first defined in 2003 therefore data are not available for prior years. In 2002 and earlier years, CBP data were published for New England County Metropolitan Areas rather than for MSA's in CT, ME, MA, NH, RI, and VT.
ZIP Codes: ZIP codes are defined at the discretion of the U.S. Postal Service and may change from time to time.
Prior to 1974, there were certain variations in County Business Patterns data collected:

Our Second TimebyBookkeeperLover©
My mother and I didn't talk all that much over the next couple of days. I think we were both a little bit in shock after that first encounter and didn't know what to say to each other. We tried to pretend as if everything was normal, living life as usual but there were some awkward pauses in our conversations. We both knew that a line had been crossed, that we'd have to sort out our feelings for each other sooner or later. As it turned out, it was sooner than I expected.
It was less than a week after that first time. The memories of those moments were still fresh in my mind. I felt butterflies in my stomach every time I thought of the moment I had reached out and pulled her brassiere off...
I came down to the kitchen one morning to find my mother sitting at the table, having a coffee. She was deep in thought and looked startled when I walked in. I bent down and kissed her on the cheek then poured myself a coffee. I sat beside her, asked how her night had been. She smiled and spoke for a moment then reached out and took my hand. She began to talk, quietly, her voice a little shaky, about the other day, about how we'd both lost control of our feelings, how we had let our desires take over and allowed them to take us to a place we both knew was out of bounds. She shook her head as she spoke about us making love and the passions that had been unleashed. She told me how confused she felt, how she was at a loss about how to move on from here. Slowly I began to realize that she wasn't talking about putting an end to our new relationship. I had fully expected her to take a different view and bring it to a full stop but it became obvious that she wasn't willing to do that.
We talked for some time about our feelings for each other, how there had been a spark of desire for many years, how that spark had grown over time and ignited the fire between us. She spoke about my father and how she felt about him. I realized how much she loved him and how confused she was with her desire for me. She told me that she didn't want to stop making love with me but warned that it could become very difficult in time. We had to be cautious about what was happening between us. If he ever found out, it would be devastating for all of us. Fortunately, his job kept him away for long hours, sometimes for days. That would take some of the pressure off and give us a chance to learn how to be with each other without the added distraction of him being home with us. We sat and talked a little longer, then parted ways. I headed off to my summer job while Mom arranged plans for her day.
I was grateful for my mother's frankness and found that our talk that morning helped me to relax and breathe a little easier around her. Even as I started work it didn't take long for my mind to fill with images of her lying under me in her bedroom, her breasts heaving, her legs wrapped around me. It was a moment that I had relived again and again every day and night since. I was filled with desire for her and completely amazed at the thought of her wanting this to continue. As I got closer to the end of my shift that day I found myself wanting nothing more than to rush home and be able to make love with my mother.
The three o'clock bell finally rang. It was all I could do to stop myself from pushing people aside and running full tilt out the door for the bus. The ride home seemed to last for an eternity but to my relief I was soon opening our front door and calling out hello. I heard my mother's voice calling back to me from the depths of the house. I found her in the laundry, finishing another load of washing. As usual, she'd been busy all day working around the house. She smiled at me over her shoulder as she carried on with her task and asked how my day had gone.
She suggested I grab a cold beer from the fridge. A cold beer? She was full of surprises this week. I'd never been offered a beer by either of my parents. It took me a minute to respond. I guess she sensed that and again looked back at me and winked. "Go ahead Hon, and get me one too while you're at it please? Dad dropped by at lunch to say he's been called out of town and won't be back until the weekend. He packed his grip and left a little while before you got home. He asked me to say goodbye to you...and to take care of me while he was away." Her voice change slightly as she said that last part. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. If I'd understood her correctly, I think my mother had just told me we were going to spend the next day and a half together. Not together in the normal sense but in the way I had been thinking of all day long.
I went to the kitchen and opened a couple of beers, pouring hers into a glass – she never drank from a bottle. My hands were a little unsteady as I walked back to the laundry and set the glass down beside her. She thanked me and leaned over to give me a kiss on the cheek. I watched as she took several long sips. I jumped up onto the counter behind her and watched as she finished the last load for the day. I drained the bottle as I stared at her back, totally amazed by the woman in front of me. She was wearing a white cotton blouse, tailored, over tight, beige Capri slacks and low-heeled sandals. She had a fabulous figure regardless of the fact she was a woman in her mid-forties. That hourglass shape and those long legs would be the envy of any woman, no matter what age.
She switched on the washing machine, then picked up her glass and turned to face me. She raised it to her lips and took another long drink. As she did, the hair on the back of my neck stood up. My eyes had drifted down to her bust as she stood there, eyes closed. Two dark circles, punctuated with an obvious bulge in the centre of each could be clearly seen through her blouse. I couldn't believe it. My mother was not wearing a brassiere! I was awestruck. Sure, there had been reports in the news about "bra burnings" and free love and all, but that was far away, in the big cities. The idea of a woman - especially my mother - not wearing a bra was beyond comprehension in our small town. My cock immediately began to swell. My face was burning as she lowered her glass and looked up at me. I quickly turned away, hoping she hadn't noticed me staring at her breasts. Even after our first passionate time together, I still felt a little nervous about being really forward with her.
She stepped toward me and gently placed her hand on my cheek, a concerned look on her face. She asked if I was ok, that I was looking flushed, hot. I nodded that I was fine and that it was just...well...it was that I could see she wasn't wearing her brassiere. She smiled - giggled actually – and asked me what I thought about that. She said she'd heard so much about the women's liberation movement and had wondered what it would feel like to not wear a bra during the day. She told me how delicious it felt to be just a little bit naughty. She'd never dream of going out in public like that she said but at home, with my father away, well...it made her feel free. Suddenly she frowned and asked if I was bothered by it, if I wanted her to put one on. I shook my head and told her no, that I thought she was the most beautiful woman I knew, that seeing her like that made me proud of her. After a brief pause I told her, hesitantly, that I liked seeing her nipples through her blouse, that it was very sexy. I was surprised to hear the words come out of my mouth. I had never in my life thought that one day I would be telling my own mother that I liked seeing her nipples, that I thought she was sexy. Maybe it was the beer...
She stepped back from me and nodded, told me she understood completely. She told me that she had hoped I would notice and that it might make me feel the same way I had just a few days ago. She told me how I was always in her thoughts. Her hands were trembling as she took hold of mine and brought them to her lips. She kissed them and then stood up close to me and kissed me on the mouth, softly but with a trembling urgency behind it. I took her in my arms and pulled her close to me. We kissed again, longer and harder. We broke apart and she whispered close to my ear. She told me how much she wanted me, how much she longed for me to be with her.
She pulled away from me and ran her hands down across my chest. She noticed my soiled shirt, dirty from a day's work and told me to give it to her so she could add it to the laundry for later. Before I could move, she began to undo the buttons, slowly peeling my shirt off until I was bare to the waist. She dropped it to the floor and then pulled me off the edge of the counter to my feet. She wrapped her arms around my waist and pressed her cheek against my chest. She began to trace her fingertips up and down my back as she pressed her lips to my skin, kissing my neck and shoulders again and again. I felt a shiver surge through me as she brought her hands around to the front of my pants and undid them. She hooked her fingers inside the waistband of my shorts then bent down and pushed both my pants and underwear off of my hips and down my legs. As she did, my cock sprang out into the open, almost hitting her in the face. Lifting each leg, she undid my shoes and tugged my pants off. I stood rooted to the floor, stark naked in front of my mother. She pushed my clothes aside, then looked at me. Her face was gleaming; her cheeks were a bright pink.
She stepped back and straightened her blouse. She looked me in the eye and said again that she wanted me, that she wanted her son to make love to her. She began to unbutton her blouse, staring into my face all the while. When the last button was free, she unzipped her slacks and let them drop down her legs, then kicked them off her feet. Another surprise! She was not wearing panties either. My mother stood before me, partially nude. Her bulging vagina was in full view. Her blouse draped open, revealing the deep cleavage between her heavy breasts. She stepped toward me and took my cock in her hand. With a few strokes, she had me rock hard and ready.
She let go of me, then took hold of her blouse and spread it wide, exposing her bare breasts to me. She asked if I would do something for her. I assured her that I would do anything – anything – she wanted me to do. She asked me to tell her how I felt about seeing her breasts and what I thought of them. I told her that I loved the shape of them, the way they stood out from her body, how firm and heavy they were. I loved her nipples and how they sometimes grew long and hard. I told her that seeing them excited me and made me want to touch them. I told her how beautiful she was, that I was so proud of her.
She smiled, paused for a moment and then asked me to touch her breasts. She said she wanted to feel my hands on her. I hesitated for a moment, then reached out and cupped them in my hands, feeling the weight of her supple flesh. I squeezed them gently, massaging them, watching them move under the touch of my fingers. I watched as her nipples hardened and grew until they were thick nubs that I could hold between my fingers. She looked down and watched as I ran my hands over them. She raised her arms, put her hands behind her head and asked me to keep touching them, to do anything I wanted. She told me sensitive her breasts were, how the feel of my hands on them made her shiver.
This was a dream come true for me. I had wanted to do this for as long as I could remember. Even though we'd already made love once, I still couldn't believe this was happening, that I was actually standing naked in front of my mother, fondling her breasts. I lifted the heavy globes up away from her chest and let each one drop, fascinated by how they bounced and jiggled as they fell back against her. She began to moan as I played with them. I found I was losing my inhibitions the more I handled her. Finally I asked her to do something for me, something I had always wanted to see. She nodded, said absolutely, just ask. I told her how much I liked to see them move and asked if she could make them jiggle herself. She smiled and then somewhat self-consciously began to shake her shoulders. She kept her hands behind her head and I watched as her breasts swung from side to side, sometimes slapping against each other, quivering. Without thinking, I began to stroke myself as I watched her breasts bounce back and forth.
She was breathing hard now, obviously very turned on by the attention she was getting from me. She stopped shaking her shoulders and stepped up close. She scooped her breasts up and held them, asking me to suck them. She shivered again as I bent down to take an erect nipple between my lips. I drew it deeply into my mouth and sucked hard, stretching her breast out from her chest. I ran my tongue across the pebbly surface of her nipple. She moaned. Her knees were trembling as she stood in front of me, letting me fondle and suck her breasts as much as I wanted. Suddenly I had a thought. Without letting go of the nipple in my mouth, I lifted her other breast toward her face and brushed her lips with it. She hesitated but then finally understood what I wanted. Shyly, she began to suck on her own breast. It was an amazing turn-on to watch her lips and tongue caress her own nipple, inches away from my face.
She moaned again. She reached down and grabbed my cock. "Please," she said, "please Hon, I want you now. I want you inside me." She shuffled her feet apart until her legs were spread wide. She pulled my cock toward her crotch and began stroking herself with it. I dipped my hips down under her and tried to enter her. She rose up on her toes and guided my cock in between her swollen labia. We struggled like that for a moment, me trying to enter her as she tried to lift herself up onto me. She was gasping for breath now. She stopped, backed away and moved beside me. She bent down and put her elbows on the counter that was behind us, then thrust her hips up high into the air.
"Come around behind me Hon. Oh god, fuck me from behind. Hurry Hon, I need it now," she gasped. It was like re-living that first time. Listening to her breathing, hearing her use the word "fuck", seeing her swollen, wet vagina – it made me so excited that nothing could stop me from mounting her. She spread her legs and tilted her hips as I moved around behind her. I had never thought of entering a woman from behind like that. As I've said before, my sexual experiences were very limited. I looked down at her long back, the curve of her hips, her smooth, round ass. I took hold of those hips and pressed my cock between her legs. She reached down and guided me up inside her, opening her vagina for my thick, throbbing shaft. I lunged up into her until I was buried so deeply that her lips pressed against the base of my cock. Her vagina was on fire. She was already flowing heavily. Her tunnel was soaked and ready for me. I pumped myself into her once, twice. Her entire body was shaking now. Her hands gripped the edge of the counter and she bent down low, her head between her arms.
I pushed her blouse up her back and held her waist. For the second time in a week I began to fuck my own mother. I listened to her whimper and groan as I pressed my cock into her again and again. She was pushing her ass back against me each time I slid into her. The feel of her ass pressed tightly against my hips was amazing.
We were moving faster now. I reached down and felt for her breasts. I found them hanging down and swaying in time with my thrusts. I took them in my hands. I dug my fingers into the heavy flesh and pulled until I could see them stretched out from under her arms. Her nipples pressed into the palms of my hands. I gripped them tightly, feeling the flesh squeeze out between my fingers. I let go of them and leaned out to the side, trying to see her breasts as I kept banging my cock into her over and over. I was fascinated by how they hung down, how they swayed and bounced each time I shoved my cock up into her.
She was talking to me, gasping out words as our bodies pushed against each other. "I'm starting to come, Honey. Unh! Oh god, yes...unh...I'm going to come! Pinch my nipples Darling, quickly!" I reached down, my fingers searching for the hard nubs as her breasts swung back and forth. I caught them between my fingers and squeezed. "Oh god, yes! Don't stop, don't stop!" she squealed. I pulled hard and felt her breasts stretch out from under her. "Yes! That's it, yes! Yes! Oh god, I'm coming!"
Suddenly her body went rigid and she let out an almost feline howl as the orgasm washed over her. Her legs were shaking uncontrollably. She gave out a loud grunt each time I drove myself into her, trying to keep her orgasm going. She was gasping, calling out "oh god, oh god!" and "yes, yes, yes" as she twisted her hips around my cock. It was when she began to cry out "fuck me harder Hon, fuck me, fuck me harder!" that I finally lost it. I drove my cock into her as deeply as I could. I banged my hips against her ass, fucking her for all I was worth. I soon felt my own orgasm begin to surge through me and into her. She clamped her vagina around my cock, drawing my orgasm out of me. I let go of her nipples, arched back and furiously drove my cock into her. Gasping for air myself, I shot load after load into her body through my throbbing cock. I thought it would never end. I'd never climaxed so hard or for so long.
Both of our peaks finally ebbed away. I was doubled over, lying on her back. She rested her head on the counter. My cock stayed hard for a long time after. We stood there together, swaying slightly. She let me stay inside her for several minutes before we finally stood up and faced each other. Her skin was damp with perspiration and her breasts were red where my fingers had squeezed and stretched them. She cupped my face in her hands and planted a long, loving kiss on my mouth. We held that kiss, wrapped in each other's arms.
She turned away, picked up our scattered clothing and dropped them into a pile on the counter. I stood there, my heart pounding as I watched my mother walk naked out of the room. She stopped in the doorway and turned to smile at me. "I love you Hon. I love you so much."
"I love you too Mom."
"Go have a shower and get ready. You're taking me out for dinner tonight." She winked at me and disappeared out the door.

Margaret Dongo
Margaret Dongo (born 14 March 1960) is a Zimbabwe politician, and ex-freedom fighter.
Liberation war[edit]
In 1975 she left secondary school to cross into Mozambique to join the guerrillas, adopting the chimurenga (liberation war) name of Tichaona Muhondo ("The Battle will Decide"). She described the ZANLA leader Josiah Tongogara as "principled. He was unwavering in knowing what he was fighting for and could not easily be driven into corruption. I believed in him." In December 1979 Dongo was one of the last people to see him alive, explaining later that "We were 18 girls who were having a function and he came to say a few words to bless the occasion."
With the ceasefire, Dongo took a typing course and obtained a telex diploma. In 1980 she worked for the ruling ZANU-PF party in a variety of roles, and then in Mugabe's Prime Ministerial office. She gave birth to three children.
In 1989 she co-founded the National Liberation War Veterans' Association to secure the rights of marginalised war veterans. In 1990, sponsored by the war veterans, Dongo became an MP for Harare East. In Parliament she was an advocate of democracy, human rights, and marginalised groups in Zimbabwe. Her willingness to challenge the ZANU-PF leadership when she felt they had not helped on these issues led to her deselection, and at the 1995 election the boundaries of her constituency were altered in a way unfavourable to her chances of holding the seat.
Opposition to Mugabe[edit]
She stood again for Harare South as an Independent against ZANU-PF's Vivian Mwashita in 1995. After her defeat by 1,000 votes was announced, Dongo was convinced that the election had been rigged, and challenged the result in court. The subsequent case revealed serious defects in the electoral roll, including the registration of many non-resident voters, suggesting that at least 41% of the names on the roll were inaccurate, and the court judgment in August 1995 invalidated the election. She went back to Harare South as an independent candidate in the re-run. On 25 November 1995 she won the rerun with 3,075 votes to 1,630 for Mwashita, and continued her fight in parliament as a strong advocate for human rights and democracy. She was one of only three opposition MPs.
Dongo hoped to oppose Robert Mugabe in the 1996 Presidential elections but did not meet the minimum age requirement of 40 years. She called on Bishop Abel Muzorewa and Ndabaningi Sithole to withdraw from the election because their participation lent it legitimacy, remarking that "the presidential elections are only for the consumption of the international and donor community, and not for oppressed Zimbabweans". Both did eventually withdraw. The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation was said to have banned its reporters from covering her activities.
On 19 December 1998 Dongo formed the Zimbabwe Union of Democrats in preparation for the 2000 elections. However, she did not get on with Morgan Tsvangirai and the Movement for Democratic Change when that party was created to challenge ZANU-PF control, and the ZUD remained small. Dongo regarded the MDC as being comparable to the Movement for Multiparty Democracy in Zambia which had failed, in her analysis, to live up to its name despite defeating Kenneth Kaunda.
Land Reform[edit]
After the 2000 land redistribution, she requested and received a parliamentary written answer in January 2001 detailing beneficiaries. Including land rented out under the tenant farm scheme since 1990, only a handful of these, which range from very large farms to smallholdings, had been given to genuine farmers. According to her, the majority of state-owned commercial farms leased out under Zimbabwe's land resettlement programme had been given to well-connected individuals, most of whom are absentee landlords with no farming experience. Many of the new owners had been given leases for 98 years at advantageous prices, while others have yet to have their lease rates assessed.
She said: "I appeal to my fellow war veterans not to let your suffering be used by selfish and greedy politicians who caused your suffering. This will not benefit you at the end of the day. Comrades, you should stand up and be a watchdog of the government. If you do not, you will have fought for nothing."
Other sources point out that over 350,000 families have been the recipients of land reform, and in Masvingo Province, only 3% of farms were found to have gone to politically connected individuals. However, even this source finds that in a rural area, Masvingo, only 60% of the farms have gone to new farmers, and admits that nearer Harare and the Highveld generally many farms have gone to politically connected individuals.[1] Moreover, the manipulation of the state apparatus for political gain (to which Dongo draws attention)has been ascribed by political scientists to Zimbabwe becoming a 'predatory state' due to the misuse of state power by ZANU/PF.[2]
2000 election[edit]
Attempting to retain her seat in the 2000 election, Dongo's house was attacked by a group of 60 opponents who threw rocks through the windows. She lost heavily with the MDC taking the seat.

Velodyne vPulse In-Ear Headphones Review
First and foremost, we have to mention it's attached with an $89 price tag – meaning, these are premium headphones! However, it's clear why it's graced with such an extravagant price point. Simply, everything about the vPulse In-Ear Headphones is premium! From its high quality choice of materials to its meticulous build quality, there's nothing that Velodyne overlooked in crafting this beauty. To tell you the truth, we love the tangle-free approach of the headphones, which makes it a breeze to uncoil and using straight from our pockets. Furthermore, Velodyne throws in a nifty carrying case with various sized ear pieces to better fit your specific size.
With the metallic blue finish of our review unit, it shimmers in the light and definitely comes off more appealing than most headphones out there. With the headphones themselves, they're distinctively etched with a "V" to indicate Velodyne's brand, and on top of that, they're angles to allow proper fitting and comfort in the ear. Also, it's worth noting that the noise reduction in-ear headphones create a robust and all-encompassing listening experience. Topping things off, it features a volume control & pause/play button for quick access, an adjustable strap, and a 90-degree 3.5mm jack to minimize accidental removals.
So how's the quality? Stunning! Comparing its quality to those with a pair of comparably priced iBeats headphones, we can tell that its audio is more robust – aided by the deep bass tones that the vPulse headphones are able to produce. Even at the loudest setting, it maintains its powerful output without sounding distorted. When it comes down to it, these provide the best audio experience with any pair of headphones out there. Therefore, if you're going to be listening to music on the go or have an occasional phone call with a friend, the vPulse In-Ear Headphones will get the job done admirably. And did we mention that they look oh-so stylish too? Trust us, you'll stand out with these during your subway ride to work. Seeing that this is the first time that Velodyne is moving outside of the subwoofer market, we're captivated with their work with the vPulse headphones.

There much better than beats..
5. clevelandiskindacool (Posts: 28; Member since: 03 Jul 2012)
Beats have amazing bass but I have untangle every single time......tangle-free is a HUGE asset
6. gtrxman (Posts: 122; Member since: 10 Sep 2011)
If Beats is your reference standard, you need a better reference.
I haven't heard these and they may be a great value, but $89 is most certainly not high end. I would love to see these compared to the Klipsch Image s4 which is probably one of the best overall values out there in terms of balanced and uncolored sound,
If you really want high end, check out offerings from Shure and Etymotic.
It hurts my ears to see so many people out there listening to music through their white Apple earbuds
7. bayusuputra (Posts: 945; Member since: 12 Feb 2012)
Shure is shurely great!
Beats? What's that? Bling bling that can produce sound?

text: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-20325517 Have you seen this discussion? Campaigners in Sweden are trying to force a dictionary to change its definition of "nerd". But after two decades of "reappropriation" has "nerd" - and its sister word "geek" - now completely lost its derogatory connotations? In the 1984 film Revenge of the Nerds the rousing final speech of one of the protagonists starts with the statement: "I'm a nerd." Its plot may be cartoonish but the film reveals a certain cultural backdrop - to be a nerd was to be socially awkward, even socially inferior. Jocks, those who were good at sport, or other socially successful groups, usually ended up winning. To turn that on its head could form the basis for comedy. Things have changed. The Social Network in 2010 came in a very different social milieu. Now a nerd, or a "geek", can be a driven Machiavellian bent on success - Gordon Gekko in a zip-up hoodie. Today when people think of "geeks" and "nerds" they might very well name the likes of Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg - people whose imagination and grasp of the technical made them billions. Historic geeks are celebrated, with Alan Turing and Nikola Tesla's legacies provoking great passions. New York Times blogger and geeky statistician Nate Silver has been hailed as an unexpected star of the US presidential election after correctly predicting the outcome. "Memo to wannabe presidents: hire geeks, not pundits," advises this week's New Scientist magazine. Even sportsmen unabashedly refer to themselves as "nerds". Chris Kluwe of the Minnesota Vikings, who has just been voted "sexiest man of the year", said of the honour: "It's a little weird because I'm a nerd video game player." Did you read the Dr. Seuss book "if i ran the zoo" when you were growing up? to your college students? Should we change the definition? Do you feel nerd is more negative than geek?

Michael Jackson: Not Guilty A California jury has found Michael Jackson not guilty on all 10 felony counts stemming from child molestation charges. At approximately 2:00pm PT Jackson arrived in court with select family members, including his parents and sister Janet. The judge allowed the audio portion of the verdict to be broadcast live. Loyal Jackson fans, who have been camped outside the court for months, screamed when the verdict was announced. After Jackson was proclaimed a free man, he was escorted outside by bodyguards and family members, shielded by a large black umbrella. Though he's been known to climb up on his SUV and wave to fans, Jackson quietly got into his waiting vehicle. But first, in a nod to his adoring fans, he patted his hand over his heart. No word on if Jackson's young accuser plans to file a civil suit against the pop star.
Pink Floyd to Play London Live 8
Pink Floyd is reuniting for the first time in 24 years, not for the usual reason -- to fill aging rockers' bank accounts -- but for the Live 8 charity concerts. Four members of the legendary band, guitarist David Gilmour, drummer Nick Mason, keyboardist Richard Wright and bassist Roger Waters will play on the July 2 Live 8 concert in London. It will be their first public performance together since they played in London in 1981. The Live 8 show will also boast performances by Coldplay, Elton John and Paul McCartney, among others. "Like most people I want to do everything I can to persuade the G8 leaders to make huge commitments to the relief of poverty and increased aid to the third world," said Gilmour.
Brangelina Scores at the Box Office
The Brangelina rumors certainly paid off at the box office. Mr. & Mrs. Smith was tops this weekend, making an estimated $51.1 million -- better than most industry watchers had predicted. The opening was better than Pitt's and Jolie's other previous hits. The gossip pages, however, didn't help telephone tyrant Russell Crowe's latest flick, Cinderella Man, which made only $9.5 million.
Destiny's Child to Disband after Tour
Perhaps it wasn't destiny after all. The members of Destiny's Child made a surprise announcement on stage in Barcelona on Saturday night, saying they will disband at the end of their current Destiny Fulfilled and Lovin' It tour. (Guess they aren't really loving it.) Kelly Rowland made the announcement before 16,000 fans at Spain's Palau Sant Jordi, saying that it would be the group's last European gig. The band then released a statement to MTV News: "We have been working together as Destiny's Child since we were nine, and touring together since we were 14," the statement read. "After a lot of discussion and some deep soul searching, we realized that our current tour has given us the opportunity to leave Destiny's Child on a high note, united in our friendship and filled with an overwhelming gratitude for our music, our fans and each other. After all these wonderful years working together, we realized that now is the time to pursue our personal goals and solo efforts in earnest. ... No matter what happens, we will always love each other as friends and sisters and will always support each other as artists. We want to thank all of our fans for their incredible love and support and hope to see you all again as we continue fulfilling our destinies." The group's U.S. tour will go on as planned, starting July 9 in St. Louis.
Blabber Bits
The Jacko jury is still out, of course, but people are already speculating about what life behind bars could be like for the King of Pop. If he is sentenced to prison, experts say that he'd most likely be headed to Corcoran State Prison, which has a protective housing unit. It's the best place for California inmates who need protection from fellow prisoners, and has held some of the state's most notorious criminals. Charles Manson and Sirhan Sirhan are among the former residents of the special unit. The cells are eight feet by 12 feet, and just 21 inmates live there now. It's about 100 miles northeast of Neverland. As far as prisons go, it sounds decent -- TV is allowed, the dress code is denim and inmates can play chess in the day room. The latest email virus is a Trojan horse that taps into the Jacko trial. The email purports to share "News from Neverland Ranch" about a "suicidal attempt." But the news is of course a hoax to spread the virus. Somewhere, Anna Kournikova is jealous. Sean Penn, perhaps hoping to never be known again as "that dude from Fast Times, is on assignment as a journalist in Iran. Penn is in Tehran for the San Francisco Chronicle to write about the Iranian presidential elections.

text: Obama Raises $3.1 Million in Boston, Sticks City with Security Bill Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 26 Jun 2012 post a comment Municipalities across America are struggling, but that does not concern the nation's campaigner-in-chief. In what is becoming standard operation procedure, President Barack Obama campaigned in Boston on Monday night and left the city with the tab for all of the security-related expenses his appearance forced the city to undertake. As the Boston Herald reported, Obama was in Boston to raise $3.1 million but did not cover the estimated $150,000-$200,000 his presence in the city cost Boston's taxpayers. Earlier in the day, Team Obama left a city in New Hampshire with the bill. David Tuerck, a government ethics watchdog with Suffolk University, told the Herald: "It's an atrocious waste of taxpayer money ... There is no taxpayer interest in any of this. It's all about getting him re-elected, and the campaign should pay for everything." Obama's campaign has raised hundreds of millions of dollars and an campaign that believes in "spreading the wealth around" should spread some of its fundraising wealth to the local governments Obama burdens with his campaign visits.

Back-up Aircraft Attitude Information Derived From The GDL 39 3D, Displayed On Garmin Pilot. (Photo: Business Wire)
Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN), the global leader in satellite navigation, today announced the GDL 39 3D, a portable ADS-B and GPS receiver which adds simultaneous display of aircraft attitude information (pitch and roll), alongside rich, interactive mapping, traffic, and weather within the Garmin Pilot™ application. The GDL 39 3D also features advanced traffic awareness, including patent-pending TargetTrend™ relative motion technology and subscription-free weather.
Back-up aircraft attitude information derived from the GDL 39 3D, displayed on Garmin Pilot. (Photo: Business Wire)
"The GDL 39 3D is an example of how we're dedicated to expanding the capabilities of our existing ADS-B solutions," said Carl Wolf, Garmin's vice president of aviation sales and marketing. "As the industry-leader in ADS-B solutions, we're devoted to educating the pilot community. Our full line-up of portable and certified ADS-B products, along with our comprehensive ADS-B Academy website, support Garmin's commitment to making the ADS-B transition easy and affordable for all aircraft owners."
The GDL 39 3D portable ADS-B receiver is a simple and economical solution for pilots who want to receive the benefits of ADS-B In and back-up attitude information. The GDL 39 3D combines a dual link ADS-B receiver which conveniently supplies ADS-B traffic, weather, and WAAS GPS data to Bluetooth ® compatible iOS and Android devices. Garmin Pilot conveniently enables the display of back-up attitude information and moving map page with weather and traffic overlay while in split screen mode, so it's easy to view flight information alongside attitude information simultaneously.
In addition to back-up attitude information, pilots also receive subscription-free weather. Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather is broadcast using the FAA's 978 MHz UAT uplink and is similar to the existing weather products available today by commercial satellite weather providers. Weather products include NEXRAD imagery, METARs, TAFs, winds and temperatures aloft, PIREPs, NOTAMs, and more.
