Gear Review
Sizing Runs Small
Member since
I really wanted to like this pair of pants. I've owned several pairs of K Slim denims, and this was my first pair of K Slim twills.
I've been a size 32 for years, and all my denim is 32. I needed to size up to a 34 in these pants. The pants are slim, but not ridiculous. B-Ry says they are skin tight but I disagree. There is plenty of room in the crotch (not nut huggers). For all you spec junkies out there, ALL K Slims feature a 9 inch rise, 33 inch inseam and 16 inch leg opening.
The material is lightweight and stretchy for Summer, the cut and craftsmanship are awesome and I really dig the fit. Just watch the sizing.

Best Kept Sightseeing Secrets of Atlanta – Don't Miss Them
Discovering The Best Kept Secret Activities of Atlanta
If you live in or have ever traveled to Atlanta, you likely know about attractions such as the Atlanta Braves' Turner Field, the High Museum of Art, the CNN Center, the Atlanta Zoo, and Piedmont Park.

When travelers who prefer a vegetarian lifestyle go on vacation, it's often challenging to locate nearby restaurants that offer vegetarian, vegan and gluten free menus.

Food items that were once relegated to small dark corners of grocery stores, now occupy prominent and expansive displays.

An Introduction To London's Cool Caribbean Scene
If you love Caribbean culture – the music, the festivals, the food and drink – simply head to London. Apart from the sun, nearly every area in London has something Caribbean to help spice the locale up. Whether you're looking for a plate full of jerk chicken, a glass of rum punch or a summer festival, our guide will help you navigate London and find the coolest Caribbean vibes.
Two of the trendiest places in London right now are Brixton and Harlesden. Unsurprisingly, both areas have an affluent Caribbean community. Brixton early in the morning is a great place to visit cafes; there's an abundance to choose from. Negril serves Caribbean toast (spiced toast served with cinnamon and vanilla and toasted coconut), traditional cornmeal porridge and smoothies (the Caribbean Queen drink with papaya, pineapple, mango and a splash of dairy milk) will transport you from the busy streets of London to a tranquil beach in Jamaica.
Villa Vacations Complete With Local Excursions Just Got Easier To Book
It seems the world has fallen in love with the idea of renting a beautiful villa and bringing the whole family along on vacation. The number of villa rental sites has expanded dramatically in recent years as have popular home rental sites like VRBO. But one big obstacle to a fabulous rental vacation has always been how to tap into local experiences, events and sightseeing options.
Villas of Distinction To The Rescue. Recently Villas of Distinction, a well respected villa rental company with inventory around the world, has solved this age-old problem by partnering with Excursionist.com a provider of experiential travel and sightseeing excursions. Adding tailor-made travel experiences to your villa rental vacation is now a cinch.
Before They Were "Inn" These Five B&B's Had Fascinating Former Lives
What do you envision when you hear 'bed and breakfast?' If you're like most people, you probably think about an historic Victorian or Queen Anne draped in lace and tucked away in a quaint corner of town. While it's true that many inns were grand, former homes of the town's well-to-do, some were not even used as homes at all.
From schoolhouses and churches, to working lighthouses and sail boats, some B&Bs lived completely different lives before opening their doors to travelers and serving up delicious breakfasts. So, next time you fall asleep in class, don't be too hard on yourself. In fact, you may be onto something!

An Amazing Season
|June 24, 2014
|Posted by Arrowhead Warriors under Uncategorized
If you look closely, you will see a nice, shiny trophy sitting in front of all these amazing Warrior players! This team was one of the most incredible group of kids to watch this season. As the coaches reflect on where we started and how far we then came, it really is a season to remember. Our first scrimmage back in September was rough…we were starting out shaky and unsure of ourselves. Balls were dropped, bad passes made and timid shots taken on goal. The coaches were scratching their heads because this was NOT the team that came to practice every time. THAT team was a well-oiled machine, full of confidence and skill. As a team, these players had to do some soul-searching of what they wanted out of the season, a line was drawn, and things started to turnaround. The kids came together for each other on and off the field, everyone stepped up their game and the Warrior Junior High team went on to WIN 12 STRAIGHT GAMES IN A ROW! We marched into the Cactus Cup Finals and earned our place in the books with the CHAMPIONSHIP WIN! But, even more importantly, we did it as a team that showed great sportsmanship and exemplary conduct on and off the field. Could not be more proud of these young men!
Our 5th and 6th graders are quite a group of up and coming lax players! This is a group of athletes, stemming from other sports like baseball, football and hockey. They have been quick to pick up stick skills and had a great season as well. We fully expect them to carry on the legacy of our junior high team and dominate in the 2015 season. Our little laxers were so much fun to watch….all heart and great sportsmanship. It is great to see young athletes take up this sport and really enjoy it. It is going to be exciting to see them all develop into amazing lax players!
Here We Go…Again!
|August 18, 2013
After a successful Spring 2013 season with some signature victories on our way to the semifinals of the AYLL Cactus Cup State Championship, we are looking forward to another GREAT season! We appreciate all the players who made good use of their summer, whether it was taking clinics and joining travel teams or simply playing […]
The Season Is Here!
|February 5, 2013
Saturday was our kick-off and we are really proud of the kids for the first weekend of actual game play. We have room for improvement across the board, but it is always good to get those first games under our belt and see how we stack up in the competition. We are looking forward to […]

ECPI versus Wake Tech, DTCC, Wilson, or Barton - page 8
Hi Monique. I am enrolled in the August LPN class at MCI in VA Beach. It starts on Aug 1st. The cost for the school is $19 thousand. You take an entrance exam and if you pass, your in. I bombed out on the math portion so I... Read More
- 0Jun 5, '07 by TNUp2JenCheck into Vance-Granville CC in Henderson. No wait list (point system based on merit, etc). I paid around $500-700 each of my five semesters...I was able to work between 20-30 hours a week with this program; others in my program worked full-time. LPN (1yr) and RN (2yrs) programs available. I graduated last month and am currently waiting to take the boards.
- 0Jun 10, '07 by CherishQuote from 2007LPN2BThats what I am saying why pay for an LPN program when you can go to an RN program for the same price. PLUS the Watts program has an optional 3 yr commitment with Duke Hospital that will pay back the cost of tuition. I doubt ECPI has an agreement with a hospital to pay back that tuition. But its your choice to become LPN or RN. I personally would never become an LPN for that price though, not without me knowing someone else will be paying for the tuition (i.e. tuition reimbursement).Yes, the program at ECPI is definitely very expensive for it to only be an LPN program, but you have to base your decision on your own individual needs. If you can afford it and don't want to wait to get into somewhere cheaper, than why not go to ECPI. I am currently an evening student and work a full-time job, as though many of us do in my class. This program was a better fit for me due to the fact that I'm not married and do not have any financial support from any family, so I needed to keep a full-time job. Believe that when I heard the actual price. . . my eye balls did get big, but I figured it was the best way to get my foot in the door as a nurse without having to wait 2-3 more years to be able to financially afford to attend a day-time program.
I'm not sure if anyone has looked at Watts prices, but the last time I checked they were around the same price for the RN program.
My plan is to sit for the state board in Dec/Jan and apply to get my BSN, with hopes to move on to an MSN as a CRNA. Good Luck to all future nurses whether LPN or RN. One key thing is to make sure you always surround yourself with positive people because they'll give you that motivation to get you through it all.Last edit by Cherish on Jun 10, '07
- 0Jul 8, '07 by RN ZekeI understand what some of you are saying....You want to get into school now and are willing to pay for it. ECPI does have RN classes at Raleigh and maybe Greensboro now. Yes they are expensive, there may be hospitals that have loan forgiveness that could be helpful in paying off some of the school debt. I would recommend getting all the pre-Req's out of the way first no matter where you go to school. Ask how many students enrolled and how many graduated and passed the NCLEX-RN/PN. If there is a huge number gap, then the school is not teaching what they should be teaching to their students. GPA's must be near perfect, pass a test to get in, an 80 to stay in (that was my schools requirement), a final and the NCLEX. Check out all the options and go from there.
- 0Jul 8, '07 by VickyRN Senior ModeratorAccording to the latest NCBON bulletin, ECPI in Charlotte has just increased their LPN enrollment from 60 to 120 (evening, weekend schedule).
And, Wayne Community College (Goldsboro) has just been approved to increase ADN enrollment from 81 to 96, effective fall 2007.
- 0Jul 27, '07 by NCSUCarolineWake Tech admissions are based on a point system. You are admitted based on your grades for the required pre-reqs only, therefore previous education does not factor in. I just finished my third semester of the ADN program at Wake Tech and will be happy to answer any other questions you have. Good luck!
- 0Aug 1, '07 by Eaglegrad007I was a second degree nursing student and I found that going to get the BSN was probably the best way to go. I applied to DTCC and was put on a waiting list. If I had waited for my name to come up, I would still be in nursing school, I was accepted to start nursing school at DTCC for the Fall of 2006. I was a senior in the fall of 2006 and I graduated May 2007. I suggest applying to a BSN program because you will spend the same amount of time getting the ADN. I graduated from a BSN program which took the same amount of time to complete if I had done the ADN program.
- 0Apr 7, '11 by CarolinaGirl1112I know this thread is old, but I just wanted to add this update. I recently began talks with ECPI/MCI Raleigh, NC and the cost of the LPN program is now $32,000 per year. INSANE!

Plusnet customers SWAMPED by spam but BT-owned ISP dismisses data breach claims
Re: no proof
@AC - Very wrong.
I get plenty of other spam, but all of these have followed a pattern.
They are *all* addressed to a unique address only used for PlusNet (e.g. mynamemangled.pn@mydomain etc).
They *all* have a subject that starts with "(mynamemangled.pn@mydomain)"
They are *all* are sent from the same "spammer"*.
They *all* have this footer...
"To stop all future communications from this sender, please go [link here]
You may also write to us at 237 S Delsea Drive #302 Vineland, NJ 08360"
Not just mine, but everyone else too.
* - I say spammer, but unlike random garbage spam looking for active mailboxes, this to me this looks like PlusNet/BT have released addresses to a third party for marketing use, which is in breach of their policy where they say they will *never* do this without permission.
I have blocked the address in question and changed my PlusNet registered address to something else unique. Guess what? These mails have stopped.
If this was random attacks guessing addresses, I'd have tonnes going to random addresses testing them. I don't.
So yes, it's entirely an issue with PlusNet and/or BT. Remembering that BT have leaked addresses recently, and PN is owned by BT.
Been doing this for 15 years or so. *@mydomain goes to my main mailbox and I just register on each site with an address specific to that site. Makes it a doddle to spot where the spam has come from, and block the spam address, change the registered address to another one.
Better still as I run my own mail server and can have it reject an address at source so it's seen as dead, though for non techies it doesn't matter. Most ISPs and mail apps have some form of blocking so at least they'll never receive the spam. Dead easy to do.
On top of that I can also report the spam occurrence to the site in question and tell them to sort out their servers! ;)
Behold the Lumia 535 NOTkia: Microsoft wipes Nokia brand from mobes
Re: Lovely hardware
Nokia did put Android on the same hardware with the X series. It didn't set the world on fire.
Re: Meh
Seen plenty. Not the majority, but I know many who have them (all Nokia) and reasons being are...
* Cheap
* Reliable
* Great build quality
* Better battery life than Android
* Excellent camera
All depends what you want from a phone really. Some are not fussed about having millions of utterly garbage apps available to install, or want to bling their phone up with Bieber customisations. They just want a phone to actually, you know, call people, and that has a few of the social app bits, email, and not much else.
Typical customers are people looking for cheap, students, kids, but also a lot of older folk who find Android just a bit overwhelming with too many features and customisations or differences between each brand. I recommended a Lumia to my parents for this very reason.
Not saying I'm a fan, and I'm on Android myself at the moment but it's only a few apps missing that stop me from switching. I was a long time Nokia fan and still much prefer their build quality and battery life so I'd love to switch back. Except they're not Nokia any more.
And can't say from what I've used of Windows Phone that it's bug ridden. Plenty of bugs in my Android phone though.

Seismic activity is another matter and there are small faults dotted all over, and we do get minor quakes in places, but then again the dots should be all over the place.

But besides that it's a robust Embedded Windows running most of them, and has been for a long time. Since XP at least in fact as most are, yes, running Windows XP Embedded. And that is still supported by Microsoft while ATM vendors migrate to another solution.
Anti-virus, not required as they run on their own private network, with no link to the Internet, and the theory was that there was no physical access to ports on the machine to load anything onto it without permission. That's where the vulnerability actually lies when the criminals have found they can get physical access and get away with modifying the machine and keep it in service without anyone noticing. The flaw there is in the physical security, and utterly down to the ATM vendors & banks and absolutely nothing at all to do with Microsoft.
"That said, using Windows as an OS seems to be an invitation to disaster."
Makes no difference what the OS is. If they can reboot the ATM with a CD, they can install whatever they like or just run their own cloned ATM software bypassing the OS itself.
The flaw here is simply vulnerability through physical access. It shouldn't have a CD drive, or a USB port (which most apparently do have). Simply needs a dedicated port that uses a secure key at the hardware level to ensure only authorised devices can connect to it to talk to the ATM to do updates etc. Plus a BIOS that doesn't let the machine boot of any connected media, or better not use a standard BIOS at all but roll their own proprietary system.
UK reforms on private copying and parody come into force
£58m lost revenues
£58m lost because a few people are ripping their CDs or hell even from vinyl instead of paying yet again for the thing they already own to get it on MP3 or whatever?
I call BS.
What irritates me though is when certain artists fall for the crap that the industry spouts about loses and then start ranting about how copying is evil and denying them of a fair income. No, the industry is ripping you off, not the consumer! They give you a fraction of a penny for every CD/MP3/whatever sold and keep the rest themselves.

Stick a 4K in them: Super high-res TVs are DONE
Re: aware of the benefits of 4K
On the colour depth, with current 1080 TVs, many have deep colour or wide gamut, but the source, even in blu ray is not up to it. When setting up mine all the advice I read said to turn off the deep colour options because it was a waste, if not a harm. Blu ray players often handle deep colour, so do the TVs, but apparently most, if not all discs do not have the encoding. There's no advantage as the extra colour bit depth is not there. Deep colour settings on non deep sources can look a bit odd. Something you may notice with a deep colour monitor used on a computer and just go browsing the web. Colours too heavily saturated is often the case.

MH370 'pings' dismissed as false positives
Go back to the start
Still convinced the radar contacts (which are secondary so not even confirmed they are the plane) are rubbish. They have all along been reluctant to release the data and I smell something fishy there. Though I suspect it's more plain incompetence they are covering up than anything more sinister.
Which would mean the plane still went down somewhere on its original course. Which fits more in line with the sighting by the guys on that rig of flames in the distance.
Yes they searched that area before, but I have zero confidence in the Malaysian authorities to have done a competent search there.
And yes there are the Doppler shifted pings back to Boeing etc, but I'm convinced these may be misleading, misinterpreted or just based on false data. Everything else has been.
Now we know the ACARS and transponder were probably lost at the same time after all, and if you treat the radar contacts with suspicion, and other non positional data as speculative and potentially misinterpreted, it all fits with a simple theory that the crew became incapacitated, possibly by fire/smoke, which took out the cabin equipment, signals lost, and the plane flew on and simply ditched. Either in the ocean or in some jungle.
Rap chap tapped for $3 BEELLION: Apple buys Dr Dre's Beats
Spotify killer

Not even the customers as there aren't that many compared to the likes of Spotify, but they then have a streaming service built into iTunes and bingo suddenly all other streaming services are in breach of their app terms for providing a service Apple provides, and all get banned, and then iSheep switch over to iTunes for streaming.
You've got Mail! But someone else is reading it in Outlook for Android
<title goes here but will it be encrypted?>
So they found many (I bet probably most) messaging/email apps had no on device / SD card encryption, but singled out Outlook, I assume because it makes good press to have a dig at Microsoft who some still see as the bad guys rather than any Android developer (those that aren't writing one of the millions of malware apps out there).
Besides that, to be honest I've never expected my emails to be encrypted on the device, or on the SD card, unless it states it offers that facility. It never has been the case in any other email application I've used, on devices or desktop, and that's both Windows and the holy Linux where everything is super secure of course. True, there are access rights that keep your mail folder from being read by other users, but if by some chance you ran a rogue app on your account, sure it has access to you mail.
If anything the fault here is with android by not sandboxing apps correctly (or at all) so they can't access other apps or their data. It shouldn't be up to the app developer to implement this.
Audio fans, prepare yourself for the Second Coming ... of Blu-ray
Blu Ray has never really been as big as they wanted. Even now, DVDs still outrank Blu Ray in your average high street shop. Well, what's left of HMV that is. Bringing music into the equation you've just got to see the rapid decline of the CD and that the vast majority of the population are happy with compressed MP3s playing on the shittiest of ear buds, or even out of a mono speaker on the phone (I've seen many kids "enjoying" music with their mates this way), to know where the market is. It isn't audiophiles, and appealing to them isn't going to save Blu Ray from cheap and crap quality streaming downloads replacing it or people hanging on to DVD for years to come.
Windows 8.1 Update: Throws desktop drones a bone but still as TOUCHY as ever
Re: 'and if you need sideloading keys, you can purchase an unlimited number for around $100.'
The problem is the concept of
"Please sir, would you possibly allow me to run my own code that I have written on my operating system that I bought, which is running on my hardware that I bought, please? please? pretty please?"
Might be an RT only issue, but on full fat Win 8.1, if you're just running your own 'Store' code, Visual Studio does all this for you without having to pay for a sideloading key. I've had a brief play and knocked up simple app and it deploys and runs without payment required on my Dell Venue Pro (full fat Win 8 tablet with really nice keyboard options that makes far more sense out of Win 8. Metro for tablet mode, and it is quite nice to use, slap the keyboard in for desktop apps).
Of course if I want to distribute apps that's another matter. Buy keys for corporate deploy, or stick in the store and let MS take a slice. It's a fair enough business model really. Apple do the same and everyone thinks the sun shines out of their arse.
"Ah but Android does it all for free". Yes, that's why there are thousands of clones of the same apps, each increasingly more crappy, bug ridden and most likely full of malware. 99% of Android apps are utter junk. The 1% are really nice though. Microsoft's problem is not so much the lack of apps, which is good if most will be crap, but what they've got is lacking key apps the majority use. Which is an issue not with the interface or APIs (which are much nicer than Android's), but with the image of Win 8 that's putting off companies from porting their apps. Sadly, by making 8.1 more desktop friendly, while it keeps the loyal base happy(er), it shoves the Store further into nothingness.

Re: Take aim...
"That is it's not-Metro when no one wants that UI and has a choice. Why would I want to use it when I can use the desktop version*?"
Try using desktop versions of almost any application on a touch-only tablet. Then you realise what Metro is actually good for.
Example is Chrome. Utterly unusable with touch, even with the beta versions and touch features enabled. Many other apps are a struggle to use with touch. They are desktop apps, not touch apps.
The problem Metro has is a vast negativity towards it based purely on desktop users not wanting it. Which is perfectly fair, but Metro is being shot down as unwanted when it's essential for the touch interface.
Jean Michel Jarre: Je voudrais un MUSIC TAX sur VOTRE MOBE
Re: Oh, my!
"On the other hand, in many countries, like here in Germany, there is already a levy on CDs, external hard drives, DVDs and printers!"
I think we would in the UK also, if it wasn't for the fact private copying is actually illegal in the UK full stop and no amount of talk to change it to a fair use law has made any difference.
Though oddly, CD-R Audio discs were still on sale in the UK complete with a levy in the price and yet still copying was illegal, so why on earth pay a premium for CR-R Audio discs if you are only going to be using them for your own original material? Except those fools who bought the hardware that would only record to them. So basically paying a tax to the studios to make your own music.

Re: How they want to hold my health records.
"Or do you get a larger organisation who can notice a problem on a Sunday and have a fix in place on Monday?"
I had quite a chuckle at that one. We're talking public sector IT here.
1) They won't notice the problem
2) No one knows what to do about the problem and the original supplier has probably gone under or is deemed too expensive to use for ongoing support
3) It will go round and round for months until someone quotes £5m to fix it and then it takes a year to fix it and the end cost has risen to £10m. For something that's probably a 10 minute job to fix.
UK picks Open Document Format for all government files
Open does not necessarily equal cheap/free
Okay they're mandating using an open format and yet can still use MS Office, but generally from what they've announced they are strongly hinting the purpose is to reduce costs, which can only mean they think they want to shelve MS Office and use Open Office or Google Docs or similar and think this will be cheaper. It's been tried many times before with some official thinking it's like in the no-support home user world and just because they can download the software for free it will be free for them. Until they require enterprise level support, not to mention the costs of implementation (which is more than just installing the relevant software, as it includes changing back end systems to handle the open doc formats, convert existing documents, and bucket loads of training).
And god forbid they want to use Open Office on Android tablets ;) - or indeed any tablet given Open Office UI is still stuck in a very desktop & mouse Office 2003 world.
Or they could use Google Docs and do away with any useful features.
Anyway, all I say to the gov is, good luck with that, but don't go raising my taxes to pay for it.
What can Microsoft learn from 'discontinued operations' at Nokia?
Re: Dead Platform
Windows 8 on the desktop may be an abortion, but Windows Phone is hardly that.
If anything it's got the most pleasing and idiot proof while intuitive UI out there for a mobile, a more secure mobile OS, and very reliable.
Combine that with Nokia's hardware quality, makes a damn good phone. Recommended to the folks and they love it.
While myself, I do love Android despite it's many frustrations, but I much prefer the UX of Windows Phone. For me though it lacks some critical apps. Not many as most apps in the various stores are complete bollox, but there are a number of essentials by big names that just aren't there. For many who just really want a phone that makes calls, sends texts and can browse the odd web site, receive emails, Windows Phone is perfect. More so when something like a 520 doesn't need charging up every couple of hours like certain Droids.
Microsoft buries Sinofsky Era... then jumps on the coffin lid
Re: What we want to know is...
While the Metro 'Start' may not be great, I've never quite got the love for the old Start menu. It's always been annoying deeply nested method of finding the apps you want to launch and much of it is grouped by vendor named folders which means you have to try to remember who made the app you're trying to find. That and if your mouse drifts off by a few pixels the sub menu disappears.
Then you end up pinning things you want to find to the root of the menu or in modern versions to the start bar, along with sticking thousands of shortcuts all over the desktop in a right mess.
I'm unsure about Metro Start but playing with a bit more I see it simply as a launcher much like iThings and Android. Also having found all the menu items are still there and can be dragged about into the main menu as you like, it's quite flexible, and it keeps the desktop from being cluttered.
Okay you have to click/tap into it which brings up the menu full screen to launch something. But then most of us probably have to close a dozen windows to expose the desktop to launch various apps anyway.
I'm a bit Meh about the whole thing. Only thing is yes Microsoft should have offered the classic menu for the luddites, who I admit are most of us. If it asked on first run if you wanted the classic experience and gave you the desktop with old Start, then few would be complaining. What you've got not is not far off, just lacking the old Start menu... which you can get 3rd party apps for.

I've seen the future of car radio - and DAB isn't in it
Sat radio
I still don't get why we aren't into Satellite radio in the UK.
In the US, every car I've hired has Sat radio built in and gets hundreds of channels, reliably. Makes a huge difference when driving through many states just gives you "both kinds of music" on FM.
DAB is expensive, reception is poor in rural areas limiting the choice of channels, few car manufacturers want to invest in it, and few other countries use it (those that do have limited availability and might be on a different band your radio doesn't support anyway. Sat radio at least might still be available in other parts of Europe and likely you'll get all the same UK stations.
Fanbois, prepare to lose your sh*t as BRUSSELS KILLS IPHONE dock
Meh - micro USB does the job, charges the phone. I don't need to spend five times as much for a stylish design that does the same job to make me feel smug.
However, the EU rules may insist on a standard connector, but I bet it won't stop Apple continuing with their devices only working with connectors that have their proprietary chip in. So only an Apple branded micro USB cable will work, though technically that cable would work for other brands, just not the other way round and it of course blocks the use of cheap alternatives to ensure you pay a premium for your Apple lifestyle.
BT warned: Speed up Openreach repairs or face PUNITIVE FINES
2 days? dream on
Parent's phone line went dead and it took BT a month and a half to fix it. Most of that was in waiting for people to come round to look at it and then the relevant contractor to be booked and get permission to dig up the road, and another to dig up the driveway to run a new cable, and another to actually connect the new cable to house. They were effectively considered low priority as a residential customer compared to other work the contractors had to do.
In the old days BT did all the work themselves in a day or two, and for a phone line down they were looking at heavy compensation for even just a few days. Now the compensation is limited unless you complain at the highest level and all the work is contracted out to different companies who have to fit into their schedules and coordinate with each other (or rather they fail to do that).
Apple patents facial recognition tech for mobile log-in
Re: Right, time to sue the Android phone manufacturers.
Putting aside any possibility (almost certainly probable) that Google et al obtained/devised their technology before Apple in 2008 or not, in the US as I understand it, patent pending does not technically protect the filer, but regardless of that the intent of patents is that you are to actively develop the product or process or otherwise have a granted patent and/or already a product on the market.
But even regardless of that, before Google did it, it was a stupidly obvious way to have a phone unlock mechanism.
Prior art, failure to develop on patent filed and produce a marketable product, patent not granted before competition went to market, blatantly obvious.
But that all counts for nothing. USPTO will grant it. It will go to court Apple vs Samsung (never Google), Obama will comment that Apple is good for US and Samsung bad, Apple will win, Samsung pay Apple for a feature from Google that was never stolen from Apple in the first place for an obvious idea that wasn't patented correctly and Apple hadn't developed until way after the competition had. All perfectly fair in the land of the free.
The patent system has its theoretical benefits, but in general the whole system is so corrupt it would be far better to scrap patents entirely until someone comes up with a better one.
Julie Larson-Green: Yes, MICROSOFT is going to KILL WINDOWS
Re: Why Windows is doomed. @Filhart
"That's interesting as the Corporation I work for has gone from XP to 7, and the thing we noticed most was on the same hardware our computers needed more RAM to perform the same with 7 as when we were on XP"
Likely because Windows 7 installs will have been 64bit, which naturally uses more RAM. RAM is cheap however and more to the point 64bit Win7 lets you use all that 8GB of RAM whereas 32bit XP will barely let you use 3GB. Suddenly it's free to do far more at the same time and faster also.
Anyway, all this rubbish about boot times - the major audience for Windows now is corporates. Who aside from touch being ludicrous for a productive environment, generally leave their PCs on overnight or at least sleep / hibernate them. Boot time - non issue.
Re: Which one ? Windows 8 with luck
"There's an abundance of choice out there like Mint, Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, and Debian. "
The vast majority of consumers would be utterly lost with any of these. More so the instant they are told they have to edit some config file and browse through dosens of linux forums to find out why they can't do something they can do easily with Windows (even Windows 8), or where instructions are written for Ubuntu but they've got any one of the huge number of other distributions. Or they buy some USB gadget but it won't work without recompiling the kernel or ripping drivers from a Windows install, hacking about with this and that, etc (I speak from experience here).
And god forbid they want to do some Excel work. Open Office is okay, if you want the equivalent of Excel 97 and don't mind it taking several minutes to launch and doesn't quite do what you're used to in Excel and isn't quite compatible with the latest Excel document formats, etc.
Don't get me wrong, I like linux and use it for what it's good for, as a server. I would not recommend it to my parents however (fairly representitive of the average consumer).
In fact I'm even recommending Windows Phone over Android as the former would be less confusing and less easy to get into a mess or download something they shouldn't and generate a lot of support calls.

How to relieve Microsoft's Surface RT piles problem
The only issues with RT
Really the only issues with RT are...
1. Price
2. Not enough quality apps
And that's pretty much it. If you have got your head around it not being 'Windows', just the same as all Android tablets are not Ubuntu or any other linux desktop distro and iPads are not OS X. Everyone understands this fine and they're popular tablets, so what's the problem here? Basically the above combined with the media generally slating RT for it not being Windows.
Even compatibility with Win Phone is not an issue to the consumer, so long as they can get the apps that do what they want on the tablet version. Okay for a developer it needs a port, but even iOS needs alternate builds for iPhone and iPad, and while maybe much easier, it certainly is not the case with Android where fragmentation is vast compared to iOS and Windows devices.
Myself, I want a nice tablet for a low price I can surf and send emails, plus a few funky apps. It doesn't really matter if it's iOS, Android or RT, and certainly doesn't matter if it's not OS X, Ubuntu(etc) or full blown Windows. So long as I understand that. Price and subsidies so you can pick them up for £100 to £200. Sorted.... except for the lack of apps.
That said I do actually want something that will do spreadsheets properly in a productive way and is compatible with modern Excel formats. Turns out Office on RT pretty much does, minus macros. Though there's still a major problem that editing spreadsheets on a touch UI just isn't that useable.

Alien planet is just like EARTH - except for ONE tiny detail
Re: There's science and then there's wild guesswork
The issue I have with exoplanets is the conclusions made are based on our only knowledge of planetary bodies we actually can observe, i.e. those within our own system. It's perfectly fine science to conclude because of X and Y observed and what we know about similar planets with properties X and Y therefore it must be the same, but could easily all be blown out of the water by a new discovery. After all, we don't even know what 'dark matter' is and yet it comprises a large chunk of the universe.
The other issue I have is it's all rather pointless as not one will we ever see or visit. The likelyhood is the human race will be extinct long before the time it would take to visit such places and they won't be there any more anyway.

Microsoft: Everyone stop running so the fat kid Win RT can catch up
Re: RT is pointless, WP is the way to go
"A. It isn't Windows compatible."
Nor is Android - doesn't stop them selling bucket loads of tablets and phones.
Problem is the marketting. Selling it as *Windows* RT made people think it would run Windows apps. Daft thing is most people don't really need that on a tablet anyway. They just want to browse, read emails, play videos and games.
With the exception of Office use, and in the main it's Excel that's the killer part of Office but the traditional spreadsheet interface is useless on a touch interface. Hence why Android and iOS don't really have this cracked either. So basically you don't need proper Office either for a tablet (but MS have provided it in RT anyway). So what really do you need legacy wise on a cheap tablet? As said, Android has shown you don't need anything as plenty of Windows users are buying Android tablets. Yet won't touch RT.
Market as the Microsoft Tablet (or Microsoft Tab !), price at £150 to £200, chuck in a decent camera, optional 3G/4G... and maybe more attractive. *If* the Store was utterly revamped and developers could finally be convinced to knock up decent apps. But even then 'Microsoft' in the name may still be making people think it's Windows. Hmm... Nokia tablet... running RT... ;)

It'll go to court, fight out and even if Samsung win and get a ban on Apple, Obama will overturn it as Apple is of benefit to the US economy supposedly, plus he probably likes his iThings, then Apple will win a ban against Samsung and round we go to the next product.

Last updated: 04/14/2010
This is your property ?
Casa Ana is a recently renovated and refurnished villa 150m from the sea, close to Cala Embaster and San Fernando on the paradise island of Formentera. 30 mins by ferry from Ibiza.
The nearest sandy beach is at Blue Bar on Playa Mitjorn, about 10 minutes walk from the villa. This property was until recently a private residence so is furnished and equipped to a much much higher standard than would usually be found in holiday accommodation. For instance, the kitchen has hob/oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine & dishwasher. In the lounge there is Sat. TV, DVD, Music Centre & small library. Outside there is a tranquil covered terrace for outside eating and a built in BBQ. Of particular benefit during the hotter months of July and August is the air conditioning in the lounge and main bedroom.
Formentera is famous for its beautiful white sand beaches and crystal clear water and Casa Ana is well placed to take advantage of them as none of the beaches is more than 10 minutes by car from the villa.
Prices vary according to season and occupancy. Contact me now for a quote for your preferred dates.
As Casa Ana has only just been released onto the rental market there are vacancies for most months, including the school holidays.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Football: 2 Hour Nap In Car, Then Practice?!
POSTED: Monday, July 20, 2009 - 9:41pm
UPDATED: Thursday, February 25, 2010 - 11:33am
McAllen High's Tino Hong's story of how he landed a roster spot in tomorrow's Texas high School coaches association all-star football game shows a lot of heart -- a work-out machine, Tino spent Friday evening in the gym and weight room -- when he returned home around 8 o'clock he saw many missed calls from his coaches and teammates from McAllen -- Tino had been asked to join the south all-star team last minute and needed to be in Austin for a morning practice..
"I explained to my parents and my dad said let's eat and then go.."
Tino's dad then drove his son from the Valley to Austin starting at 11 o'clock Friday night...arriving at roughly four in the morning
"We got two hours of sleep and then deny's then off to practice!"
Tino's dad stayed to watch his son take every other series of snaps in the morning session before returning home -- while he may be sleep deprived, Tino's definitely awake enough to appreciate the experience..
"Take it in slow and enjoying it -- can't wait for tomorrow's game.."
The all-star contest kicks off at 7:30 -- Tino will be blocking for McAllen Memorial's Patrick Granchelli -- the only Valley athletes on the South roster.

Governor calls for minimum wage increase
Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin is calling for lawmakers to incrementally raise the state minimum wage to $10.10 by 2017.
Shumlin, speaking Monday at Bear Pond Books in Montpelier, said the increase would ensure all Vermonters enjoy a piece of the economic recovery.
Shumlin said the state Legislature's leadership agreed with his proposal and would be working on the details of a bill.
