Excellent point. Does anybody else find it hilarious that Amazon had to resort to removing the Fire HD/iPad mini comparison ad?
If you're competing with the iPad mini based on price, you're telling people to buy the BlackBerry PlayBook
Apple absolutely left an umbrella beneath the iPad mini's $329 starting price. From the moment they showed off the Google Nexus 7 on stage at the October iPad and Mac event, Apple was making the case that the iPad mini was worth more than smaller, cheaper competing tablets. Apple was arguing premium over discount, value over cost. It's the same argument Apple made against low-margin netbooks when they released the MacBook Air. And it's an argument that leaves Apple as wide open to competitors playing the "cheaper" card now as it did then.
Competitors can -- and already are -- claiming that they offer more for less with their products than Apple does with the iPad mini. Even if the argument is severely contorted, it can be compelling. For many buyers, price matters, and for some it matters the most. For some, price outweighs any other consideration.
That's the problem with it. If you compete based primarily on price, you can be competed against primarily on price. If you claim to be cheaper, but you're not the cheapest, you're going to reap what you've sown.
So while the iPad mini is indeed more expensive than the Google Nexus 7 or Amazon Kindle Fire HD, neither of them are the cheapest small form factor on the market, not even from a major mobile player.
The BlackBerry PlayBook is.
Sure, the BlackBerry PlayBook isn't the latest hardware anymore -- it's closer to the original Kindle Fire in specs than the Nexus 7 or any of this year's Kindle Fires -- but it's scheduled to be updated to BB10 in 2013 and that looks to be a much more functional tablet experience than what Amazon offers, and something that could rival Android for not-Apple in not-Apple lovers' hearts. Even the PlayBook as it stands today is arguably a better pure tablet experience than either the more-properly-defined-as-a-media-appliance Kindle Fire, or the "blown up smartphone" interface elements that still plague the Nexus 7.
And if you look around, you can find the Wi-Fi only version of the BlackBerry PlayBook on sale for only $150.
Sure, there are a lot of advantages to the Kindle Fire HD, especially if you're all in on Amazon and live in the U.S.. Absolutely, the Nexus 7 is the clear winner if you're a heavy Google user and want Android on your tablet.
But if you're arguing something other than value, if you're complaining that the iPad mini is way too expensive for a small tablet, if all you care about is the lowest cost, legitimate device possible, whether you're Amazon, Google, or anyone else -- right now you're arguing for the BlackBerry PlayBook.

If you're competing with the iPad mini based on price, you're telling people to buy the BlackBerry PlayBook
Exactly. And I, being 12 years old at heart, really enjoyed seeing the word "ballsy" on the Amazon main page for a day.
if someone really considers Kindle, I would say consider this DUDE :
The only problem is what most people consider "legitimate." As far as a strong app marketplace that is sure to grow over time, the choice doesn't include the blackberry playbook. For all we know rim could totally give up on their tablet tomorrow or next year. Unless you're just looking for an e-reader/movie player, its only about apple vs android at that point.
"As far as a strong app marketplace that is sure to grow over time, the choice doesn't include the blackberry playbook."
It doesn't include Android tablets either unless you consider blown-up phone apps optimized tablet apps. For the most part, only Google's apps are optimized for Android tablets and if that's all you're going to use then fine. But if you plan on doing anymore or using a bunch of other apps forget it. The iPad has far more and far higher-quality tablet-optimized apps.
Something that many forget is the ability for the PlayBook to use Android apps. Now granted most Android apps are really phone apps, but you still are getting apps on the PlayBook. Once BB10 is released, there will be many more apps, many developers have committed to doing apps for BB10.
Something that many forget is the ability for the PlayBook to use Android apps... I guess its a nice way to describe the emulation process, although its absolutely not the same (using is not running)... no one knows for how long Rimm can run its business even if BB10 would be out soon
its heading in Palm direction
Recent news have BB10 software on test at 50+ carriers...
This article came across a little condescending. My opinion is that Apple introduced the iPad mini to ensure that they do not continue to lose market share to Android, like they did with mobile phones. I think we can all recognize that Apple has a more refined mobile OS and hardware that is the envy of the industry, but the reality is most people are concerned about cost. If the iPhone wasn't subsidized would it be as competitive as to Android phones, I'm not so sure. I think Apple is trying to avoid, at all costs, the history lesson from the PC era and making sure that its products stay in reach of all consumers. Apple currently rules the roost when it comes to tablet, but its market share keeps dwindling every quarter...regardless if consumers keep them in their cabinet drawers like T. Cook says.
The BlackBerry Playbook rOcKs! I've had it since it launched. I use it every single day and I take it everywhere. It's an excellent tool, especially for business. The OS is silky smooth and multi-tasking is huge for productivity. I'm not an Apple hater...I happen to use an iPhone 4s and I do like it a lot, however, I will definitely be jumping back to RIM as soon as BB10 launches...nothing wrong with Apple... I took it for a spin. Apple may be for a whole lot of people, but it is def not for me.
Nobody ever said ".... if all you care about is the lowest cost..." I have the iPad3, Playbook and Nexus 7. The playbook has very good specs but the user experience is horrible. Best browser goes to the iPad but for the price of the Nexus 7 ($199) along with the user experience and portability, the mini Ipad has a steep hill to climb. I was ready to buy the mini Ipad but at that price ($329 plus cover) I am buying the new Nexus 7 (16GB). Apple seems to be resting on its laurels and Google is catching up very very fast. The absence of Steve Jobs is beginning to show.
Hello! A raffle ticket for me please.
Content, content content. The iPad has it because of iTunes. The Playbook has it because of..... flash. It's not the easiest to use , but since it's cheap and runs flash, it's great for couch surfing streaming video.
If the only competition isn't available until 2013, is it actually what you should recommend?
sigh, ye of little comprehension... Rene mentioned that it wont be updated to BB10 until 2013. This does not mean it does not exist however. The PlayBook works off the BlackBerry Tablet OS, which essentially is the basic framework behind BB10. In other words, its a good value now, that will get even better in the start of next year.
This article attempts to fling mud in the eye of iPad mini price critics: "Oh you're dogging the beloved Apple because the mini is expensive? Well then YOU like Blackberry, so there!" Reminds me of the fat kid in Sandlot saying 'oh yeah, well you play ball like a girl!'
And it's just as childish.
untill u r a super rich person spendin huge amount of money on ipad mini is understandable. wid this price tag n no-retina display n havin specs of ipad 2, its not worth it. its like sellin a old product in a smaller version n brandin it new. its better to spend 100$ more n buy the 4th gen ipad. Apple jus cant keep askin us to pay a premium price for a product which doesn't give u a premium feel n specs to brag about. Sorry Rene we understand wat u r tryin t do here, but this price of ipad mini is not exceptable.
I believe that sometimes you get what you pay for and in this case it couldnt be any more true. Just based on the spec sheet alone you can tell that the ipad mini is bring quality and innovation to the game. You can count on the product based on the track record. The price is definitely a factor, understandably so, so with that in mind...just go for the next best thing, which is clearly not the playbook...
GizmoTrims.com - iPhone 4 & 5 cases / Galaxy S 3 cases/ & MUCH MORE!
"Sure, the BlackBerry PlayBook isn't the latest hardware anymore" - Wait, doesn't the BB Playbook have the same specs, if not slightly better (3mp ff camera, aGPS and a touch higher ppi on the screen) as the "new" Ipad mini despite being well over a year older?
Way to go Apple and do the RIM trick by repackaging last years hardware into this years device...
Exactly, I think people (typically android fans) get too caught up in specs and not focus on experience. Putting a jet engine on Porsche doesn't always make it better than the next Porsche.
I find this article condescending as well as some of the comments. All of these tablets are comparable on most levels. Screen density is close enough that 99%of people wouldn't know the difference except possibly the surface. They may have shat the bed on that front. Processors and ram are all comparable and capable of running a good os. Crappy storage on the nexus with no rear camera and no tv out makes it a poor competitor. The kindle fire is a bit too 'amazon' for me. That is just personal preference,but I can see that as an obstacle for many. The ipad is classic apple. Decent os and good all 'round specs. It has itunes and imovies and ibooks and blah blah. Apple is alot like Amazon in that respect. But the OS is stable and smooth and access to apps and whatnot is generally quite easy. Is that worth the premium? Far as I can tell, what kept the playbook from really taking off was the price point. Smaller tablet with better specs than the ipads of that era. The tablets were completely capable of becoming more than they are at this point in time but we all know they overpriced it by trying to sell it at ipad prices. If it had priced it where the ipad mini is now they would have sold out. But everyone balled at the price and it's lack of native email which I found overblown. But the playbook came out almost 2 years ago. All of these tablets have 2 year old specs or worse. The ipad, by that standard, IS overpriced especially if the most expensive playbook is less than the least expensive ipad. Apple's os isn't that much better than android or the playbook os to justify the price either. Preference comes into play but I don't know why someone would prefer paying more for a tablet and for accessories. Although some are under the impression that more expensive means better.
I think i prefer the playbook above all and I think it will get better with the BB10 update. Can anyone tell me the current price of the playbook and what possible updates can we expect to come with BB10? Blackberry is my thing.

WILLIAMSON - A criminal complaint was filed in Mingo County Magistrate Court by Sheriff's Deputies R. Fitch, L. Thomas and S. Smith regarding an arrest that stemmed from a Pittsburgh woman entering three homes without permission, and committing destruction of property while inside one of them.
The arrest report for Marcelene Helen Miller, 47, states that on June 17, she allegedly entered a Harvey Addition home on U.S. 119 belonging to Gene and Denise Brinager without permission before traveling on down the lane to a camper registered to Brian and Brenda Dillon where she proceeded to once again, enter without permission. The defendant is accused of throwing around and damaging personal items that were inside the camper including a small refrigerator, a chair and toaster, with a total estimate of $600 to $700 worth of damage reported.
The defendant then fled the scene after exiting the camper and drove to the Hell Creek residence of Connie Thompson near the Town of Delbarton and attempted to gain entrance to the third home, but was refused. Thompson relayed to the officers that she repeatedly told Miller to leave her property but she adamantly refused, and told the homeowner that "this is my house and I ain't going nowhere".
Upon arrival, the defendant was taken into custody and was charged with 2 counts of entering without breaking and 1 count each of destruction of property and trespassing; asked to leave.
Miller was arraigned before Magistrate Pam Newsome and was remanded to the custody of the Southwestern regional Jail at Holden where she remains on a $5,500 bond. The defendant is scheduled to appear in court for a preliminary hearing next week to face these charges.

Reece said he is totally opposed to the bill and explained that, for many years, all weapons, radar units, and computers have been purchased with confiscated funds.
"We take the money from drug dealers, but as it is now it goes to court and they have a right to fight it," the sheriff pointed out. "It goes to court like any other case."
He said the bill would hurt all local law enforcement departments. At this time anything confiscated can be used to purchase items needed by the officers and/or departments, with the exception of salaries.
Reece said state Reps. Bubber Epps and Susan Holmes have both told him they do not support the bill, and Sen. Burt Jones has also expressed his opposition.
The sheriff said the bill itself is 92 pages in length and is complicated.

Comments about ONE Plus 12V Multi-Chemistry Charger:
Great charger. Not many choices for the Ryobi 12V variety, but this is a great contender if any competition were out there. So far had it in use a bit over a month, works very soundly.
If you ever experience a power outage or brief circuit trip it is advised that you remove and re-install battery on charger. The charger will give off reading of flashing red and green lights (which means battery is bad) but in reality it is in response to the power drop. Once battery is re-inserted the charger will resume normally.

Comments about ONE Plus 12V Multi-Chemistry Charger:
Bought a Ryobi 12v drill with NiCad batteries for quick small light jobs instead of hauling the heavier 18V drill. But the charger that came with it is the same as a cell phone charger and took 10 hours to trickle charge the batteries....... that's not going to fly. This charger gets the job done in less than an hour, enough said.

What is accreditation?
Voluntary accreditation in higher education originated almost a century ago as a uniquely American process. Sought voluntarily by colleges and universities, accreditation is conferred by nongovernmental bodies. Voluntary accreditation has two fundamental purposes; quality assurance and institutional and program improvement.
Voluntary accreditation has come to be marked by the following attributes; it is provided through private agencies; it requires a significant exercise of self-evaluation by an institution or program, the results of which are summarized in a report given to the agency; a team visit is conducted by the agency; judgments about accreditation are made by experts and trained peers; and institutions under review have opportunities to respond to most steps in the process.
There are two types of accreditation for higher education in the United States: institutional and specialized accreditation.
Institutional Accreditation
An institutional accrediting body evaluates an entire organization and accredits it as a whole. It assesses formal educational activities and also evaluates governance and administration, financial stability, admissions, and student personnel services, resources, student academic achievement, organizational effectiveness and relationships with outside constituencies.
Specialized Accreditation
Specialized (or program) accreditation agencies evaluate particular units, schools, or programs within an organization. Some are discipline-based (business, computer science, and library science, for example), and many are also associated with national professional associations and state licensing (engineering, medicine, health professions, and law are good examples). Institutional accreditation is separate from the accreditation given or withheld by specialized agencies, although the Commission does take cognizance of the standards set by professional bodies. (Information from http://www.ncahlc.org)
Licensure Program Approval
Licensure program approval agencies review and approve school administrator and teacher licensure programs to maintain high standards for quality licensing.

It's an honor to lead the talented team at the Portland Housing Bureau. The bureau has come into its own in 2012, and I'm excited about how our work strengthens our community. We continue to make progress toward our goal that all Portland residents have safe and stable homes, but we know there is still much to do. As we start the new fiscal year, the work you do to enrich our community inspires me. Although we have much to celebrate, we still face formidable challenges. Together, we can build on our successes and achieve more. The Portland Housing Bureau partners with many great organizations throughout the region that share our goals of increasing affordability and stability in the local housing market, ending homelessness, and creating equitable opportunities for all our neighbors.
Over the last two years, the Portland Housing Bureau changed dramatically. We are becoming a streamlined and nimble agency as we fortify our partnerships, strive to preserve the city's affordable housing stock and seek new and sustainable funding sources. Long-term stable funding will allow us to build stronger neighborhoods--and a stronger Portland.
We work in many facets, outlined throughout the site. View the "What We Do" section of the site to explore our mission in action.

The Board of Education seats are the only local contests for the May election, and because the positions are nonpartisan, that election will determine the outcome of the race.
Chairman Ginger Bailey has no opposition and will be serving another four years leading the board.
District One had three candidates qualify. The incumbent, Deloras Moon, announced her retirement last month. The candidates competing for the District One seat are Tony Blash, medical education coordinator; Richard Cazort, construction estimator; and Ken Hamilton, electrical designer.
Of the three candidates, Hamilton is the only one who has previously run for office. He was a candidate for the chairman position in 2010 and lost to Bailey in the primary. That was before the Board of Education seats became nonpartisan.
District Three incumbent Larry Haskins also announced his retirement last month.

Please excuse the number of steps. It is really easy and can be made within an hour and from bits lying around the office, hence very cheaply.
Step 1: The tools and materials list
1 pair of pliers (needle nose would be best, where available)
1 pair of scissors (yay for scissors)
8 paperclips
thin string/thread
Corrugated card (approx 6"X6")
Ballast (I used a bunch of batteries from our recycling box)
Rubber band
Step 3: Now shape them
At the other end, make a dog leg. Try to make it on the same plane/axis as the eyelet.
EDIT: Ignore the dogleg. Instead bend approximately 1/2" of the non-eyeleted end at right angles (90 degrees) to the eyelet. All will become clear very soon.
Step 4: The axle
Step 5: The arm
Make a small hook at the other end.
Step 6: The trigger
EDIT: See the adjustment I made to the firing mechanism in the final step. It works so much better.
Step 8: Assembling the parts
Thank for the inst' anyway !â¦

Weather makeup days announced
Lee County Schools will hold winter weather makeup days for students in most schools by extending three days that had been planned as early release days to full days.
The days are Feb. 12, March 5 and March 28, and that schedule applies to all students except for those at Tramway Elementary School and Lee Early College, which operate on special calendars.
Lee Early College students don't have any makeup days. The only change for Tramway students is a full day Feb. 12 instead of an early release day.
The decision was made to cut out early release days "in lieu of using Saturdays or days of spring break," Superintendent Andy Bryan said during a meeting Tuesday with the Lee County Board of Education, when the decision was approved. He added: "Of course, this could all change if we have more bad weather."
The state allows schools to either meet a minimum number of days per year or hours per year; this decision will get local students the required number of hours in school.
Harnett County Schools announced last week that it would have makeup days on Feb. 17, March 28 and April 21, as well as on a fourth date that hasn't been announced yet.
Chatham County will have school on two days that students previously had off, Feb. 14 and March 7, as well as turning the early release day on April 11 into a full day.
No decision on makeup days has been announced by Moore County Schools yet.
Also during Tuesday's Lee County Board of Education meeting, the board hired Vicky Matthews as the district's next director of child nutrition — a position responsible for arranging food and cafeteria supplies for all 16 local schools, training cafeteria staff, auditing local lunch room operations and making sure everything is in compliance with state and federal law.
She has worked for Lee County Schools for 19 years — all in the child nutrition department — first as an assistant and, since 2006, as a supervisor. She will replace her former boss, Jeanne Ellington, who is retiring.
"Feeding children is a very rewarding job," Matthews is quoted as saying in a press release that was distributed after the school board approved her hiring. "I am looking forward to the opportunity to work as the Child Nutrition Director. I am hoping we will be able to implement some new menu ideas for the school cafeterias."
In the same press release, Bryan said Matthews is well-regarded by local principals and cafeteria workers alike, and that "Vicky will make an outstanding director and will continue to explore ways to make our cafeterias both healthy and appetizing for our students."

HOW TO | Pop a spot
YES, I'M really doing a post on how to pop a spot/zit/pimple at home. Having been prone to acne my entire post-pubescent life, I've learned a thing or two about how to and how NOT to pop a spot.
Every magazine you read, every dermatologist you visit will simply say don't do it because it's bad for your skin. Guess what? NO S**T! Did you need a medical degree to figure that one out? Those of us with acne can give you the exact medical reasons WHY it's bad. We pore (heh) over articles and studies about it. We, maybe even more so than you, understand. Yet we still choose to get rid of them because, boy, let me tell you, I'd rather pop it than have a giant whitehead waving hello to the PR Director of a skincare company while I'm walking in for a meeting. Counter-intuitive? Not at all. We ARE judged by our appearance, like it or not. Acne has a detrimental affect on that appearance, especially post-secondary school when it's not an acceptable trait to have. [editor's note: Fully aware that full-on acne is different from an occasional spot. Not downplaying how awful acne can be!]
And, really, you silly dermatologists, where do you get off? Did you go to the George Bush School of Abstinence Is The Only Way? As with teenagers and sex, you can teach them that they shouldn't do it, but it ain't going to stop them from bumping uglies.
Same with acne (although clearly without the resultant illegitimate child)... teaching people to simply not pop a spot because it's bad for your skin results in all sorts of heinous skin atrocities being wrought on poor, undeserving complexions at home due to simple ignorance. I've met people who literally scrape off the whitehead with their fingernail (ew), will go at it with unclean hands and fingers, who don't know what they can and can't pop and thus attack everything on their face with the same zest for destruction. I've even known someone to try to pop... a mole. Preaching pimple-popping abstinence leads to to all sorts of unmitigated skin disasters. Shame on you

Justin Marcum
West Virginia Delegate (D-Mingo)
Governor Earl Ray Tomblin's State of the State address was a step in the right direction for the state of West Virginia.
The Governor stressed something very important to me and my fellow residents of Mingo and Logan County: ensuring our students get the education that they deserve. Making sure students have the necessary tools to learn to read and providing opportunities for every student who wants to go to college or vocational school are policies both the Governor and I share.
Teachers have always been an integral part of our community, and as such, it is very important to me that teachers receive the proper certification and education to allow them to provide the proper education to our children. Governor Tomblin made these remarks Wednesday night and I fully intend to back them in order to protect our teachers and children.
In the Governor's address, prison overcrowding was also a major point. The Governor has created a plan that will help reduce overcrowding by reducing recidivism and increasing public safety. These proposals the Governor has made will save the state over $116 million over the next six years.
Also in his State of the State address, the Governor stressed the importance of the mining industry and mine safety programs. Both the Governor and I understand the importance of the coal industry to this country and this state, and I can assure you that I will work to make sure this valuable industry will not be crippled. With that being said, I am proud to announce that I have introduced a bill to provide penalties for any person who trespasses with the specific intent to shut down an active mine site.
I have an immense amount of faith in our Governor. I believe that his balanced budget will steer the great state of West Virginia in the right direction. If you should have any questions or comments regarding any issues or bills before the legislature please feel free to contact me.
Both Delegate H.K. White and I will continue to fight for southern West Virginia and we look forward to hearing from you.
To write me, my address is Delegate Justin Marcum, State Capitol, Building 1, Room 224-E, Charleston, WV 25305. Or you may call me at (304) 340-3126. I encourage all my constituents to remain active and become part of the legislative process.

Saturday, September 7, 2013
Police were called to a local bank because a suspicious man was inside talking gibberish.
He was walking around inside and began cussing. Then he began carrying on a conversation with anyone who would listen saying the British were coming. He added in for good measure that a major earthquake would soon strike as well.
He had no apparent business to do at the bank so after a while, when he realized everyone was ignoring him, the suspect left.
He was never located, and perhaps was kidnapped by the arriving British forces.

Tips For Being Induced Into Labor
10 Things to Know Before Being Induced
The waiting game for Prince George's younger sibling may be coming to a close. Reportedly five days past her due date, rumors are swirling that Kate Middleton may be induced this week as doctors don't want her to carry the baby more than a week past her due date.
As moms-to-be, we assume that our babies will make their debuts when they are good and ready. So many women are thrown for a loop when the doctor announces it's time for the wee one to arrive via induction. Whether the procedure is scheduled because the infant is overdue or based on the amniotic fluid levels, there are a few things mothers should know about being induced. Here's what I learned after being induced twice.
POPSUGAR, the #1 independent media and technology company for women. Where more than 75 million women go for original, inspirational content that feeds their passions and interests.
If a pregnant woman is receiving medications to induce or augment labor, then CONTINUOUS fetal monitoring IS required, in almost all US healthcare facilities. Every time the woman changes position, the baby can come off the monitor.....if induction medicine is being given and the baby is not being adequately "traced" for 10 minutes or more, the nurse can lose his or her job....and possibly her license.
When a patient is obese, moves around a lot, if the baby is very active, there's too much amniotic fluid....or a million other possible scenarios.....it can be extremely difficult to get the baby back onto the monitor after a position change. Most nurses caring for labor patients are responsible for the care of MULTIPLE patients, and cannot remain at the bedside, hand holding the monitors and adjusting them every time you or the baby moves. Some facilities have "portable" (aka cordless) monitors, where the baby can be monitored without the mom being attached to an immovable machine. Even with this technology, significant movement can hamper the ability for the baby to be continuously monitored.
During a low risk, non-induced or augmented labor, intermittent monitoring is possible.....this gives the laboring woman greater freedom to move around and change positions (which is CRUCIAL for comfort during labor). Her support people (including a doula) can more easily provide comfort measures. However, this will also depend upon the usual practice of your doctor (some doctors, under NO circumstance, will "allow" intermittent fetal monitoring....if this is something that is important to you, then you need to discuss your doctor's usual practice WELL BEFORE labor begins), the policies of the hospital or birthing center that you plan to utilize, as well as the comfort AND the experience of the nurse who is assigned to care for you.
As related to this article....many inductions are performed for reasons of "convenience" only. Before you agree to be induced because your doctor is going on vacation....or you aren't due for another week, have an unfavorable cervix, but are just really sick of being pregnant (aka....non-medical indications).....educate yourself and ASK QUESTIONS. Ask your physician his or her usual practice, and consider scheduling a meeting with the nurse manager of the maternity department of the hospital or birthing center that you are considering.
If induction becomes necessary because of health risks to you or your baby, then I'm sure most of us can agree that we would do whatever is necessary for a safe delivery. However, it is important to remember.....if the baby and the mom are comprised enough to require immediate delivery, continuous, uninterrupted monitoring of BOTH mom and baby will be essential.
However, if you are considering induction for NON MEDICAL reasons (which comprise the vast majority of inductions in the US), you MUST realize that more intervention will require more monitoring....which, in turn, will require greater restrictions....many of which will be unpleasant. Induction also significantly increases your risk for having a c-section. If these are not risks that you are willing to take for non-medical indications, then you may want to re-think being induced.
Ha seriously some nurses have no tact. Women in labor need comfort, not to be belittled. I had the WORST nurse at first, told her to get the fk out of my room and send in someone else before I knocked her on her ass, and that she needed to go shower because her hair looked like it hadnt been washed in weeks. After I was discharged , I wrote a scathing letter to the Nurse Manager and got this turd fired. She was so rude, made comments about me being overweight, needing to make sure that my water broke and that I didnt just pee my pants. Ummm ya Im pretty sure the POP I felt that woke me up, then a gush, then clear liquid running down my legs at 2 am was not freaken urine. Some really need to learn what a bedside manner is!
A healthy mom and baby are NOT all that matter--- that's totally wrong. Also, being bed-bound is not true, intermittent fetal monitoring is always a choice and as a patient/customer you have the right to deny anything they are telling you is necessary, another reason that getting a doula is crucial in a hospital birth.
Being induced sucked. Labor sucks. But babies are wonderful and beautiful. My nurse got frustrated with me because i was annoyed about being hooked up to sooo many thing, well, only like three things, but with an iv in your hand and contractions, your movements are limited. You want to lay however you please or sit however you please, whatever makes you comfortable, without someone tsking you every five minutes. "What did you expect an induction to be like, honey?" The nurse asked me, rather snottily, when I started getting frustrated. I told her to unhook me and get the needle out of my hand or I'd do it myself. My boyfriend had to talk me out of leaving right then and giving birth in the woods, and keep me from decking that nurse. I expected pain and discomfort, I didn 't expect you to make it worse by being a bitch, thanks. The team you are placed with makes a huge difference in the induction and birthing process.

Not only do I try to talk to all of my patients and families about media use and the need for a healthy media diet, I also try to incorporate questions about eating habits into my well child visits. Even though most pediatricians are busy, a few minutes spent discussing healthy eating can go a long way. I have started asking a few new questions which I think are really helpful about assessing a families eating habits.
It is impressive how much information you can get out of asking a few key questions even to children as young as 4 or 5 years of age. This is especially true if they are talkative! You know the saying, "out of the mouth of babes", it is so true.....kids often have no filters.
If I just ask, "do you think your family eats healthy meals?" the answer is usually yes. But that doesn't really tell me much about what the child (or their parents) deem "healthy". So, I start off asking "who fixes breakfast?". This question not only lets me know if a child is eating breakfast but also if a parent is involved in getting a child's breakfast ready. Not every child is fortunate enough to have a parent around in the morning to fix breakfast...and some of their food choices are related to that issue. Then I ask them what is their favorite cereal......rarely do I hear "steel cut oats".
Next, I ask if they take their lunch to school or if they buy their lunch. If they buy lunch, I ask what they like to buy at school, and often it is pizza, chicken, hamburgers, tacos. Almost any age child can name their favorite food, but then I ask them their favorite fruit or vegetable... sometimes a child cannot name one, which makes me think they are not eating them.
Most kids come home from school and have a snack as well.....so once again I ask "what do you do after school for a snack?" . Some kids are in after school programs and seem to have healthier snack options, while others tell me they stop at "fast food" restaurants almost every day. Some come home and eat cereal for the second time that day.
Lastly, I ask...."who fixes dinner?" "Do you set the table?" This also is a great way of seeing if a family eats together. As you know I am a big believer in family meals for all sorts of reasons.
I hope your pediatrician is asking you and your children about mealtimes as well.....very important to promote healthy eating habits.

Do you believe that it is RISKIER to bet on a well fleshed out "sandbox" MMO, or to alienate your subscriber base by copying something that has no "moveable" consumer base?
In other words, is it Riskier to copy WoW than it is to innovate now? For me, I believe that it is. Risky, doesn't mean what investors and publishers seem to think. Copying WoW post RIFT or SWTOR is pretty much a gauranteed failure. EA-Bioware are doing almost anything they can to keep subscribers even if it means outright lieing about their subscription numbers.
Also, I'd like to take this moment to say I'm not the only one hoping that the "leaked" game informer is a joke, or a REALLY bad attempt at sarcasm. If everything in that Game Informer leak, shy of 3 faction system, is true then shame on Zenimax. What was outlined in that "Leak" is NOT an Elder Scrolls title.

I had no delusions about what kind of MMORPG game they were going to make based on the ES series...and it's not the kind of game I would be interested in playing.
They should change the name so it doesn't have Elder Scrolls in it and then in the opening credits it can say "based upon the Elder Scrolls series" because that is abouty as close as it will come to the gameplay of the Elder Scrolls series.

From the info in the leak, the moment The Elder Scrolls Online launches, Mortal Online will still be the closest thing to an Elder Scrolls MMO.
ZeniMax obviously does not understand why people wanted a TES MMO in the first place.
Unless something changes with the plans for TESO, I'll be sticking with MO or something like it. That's the kind of game I enjoy - I'd rather play an immersive but flawed sandbox of this type, than the most polished WoW-clone in the world.
Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned.
I dont know any TES game that is a sandbox. You cant physically manipulate anything in these games other than killing "mobs" and gather materials which didnt qualify a game as a sandbox game the last I checked. If I could chop down trees and plant new ones on the place of those, if I could bring down the wall of a castle, if I could build a boat and set sail with it, if I could push that rock off a cliff which would roll down the hill smashing some deers on the way... And so forth. That's a sandbox game.
Just having the freedom to move around as you please with no gated content around, while having access to all skills and abilities in a game does not make it a sandbox game when there's absolutely nothing you can manipulate physically in the world.
Anyway, I agree with the part "do not make a WoW clone please" - even if a game is a themepark it does not have to share all the game mechanics, if any, with some/any other game. Would be nice to see some original or just different design choises compared to the mainstream mmorpg pool. And sandbox elements in the game.

Why is it that now-a-days everyone assumes that for a game to be Sandbox you must manipulate the enviroment somehow?
Sandbox also mean how you can manipulate and form your character and what they do.
Sandbox means that you arent stuck as a Mage or Warrior or Rogue or whatever for life.
You could start the game as a resource gatherer, then become a crafter, then learn to fight with weapons and eventually magic. or however you choose to live.
It really comes down to choice. What direction do you want to go today.
In a game like SWTOR, my choice pretty much ends once I select my character and class.
Everything from there on is directed and scripted for me with very little choice left up to me.

I just want to explore the massive world that this game is going to have. The class system doesnt bother me..In the end it all turns out the same with copy and paste builds and a skill system without a skill cap just leads to tank mages and master of all unblanaced igorance.
I want to know more about the crafting in particular though.

Well yeah, you're right about the freeform progression after thinking about it. Though when I imagine about a sandbox first thing to pop in my mind is manipulating the sand, which in these games are the environment, structures etc. I dont feel that a game is a sandbox game if it only has a freeform char progression as the sandbox feature. That would make TSW a sandbox game too but since every zone and the content in those zones are pre-determined, I feel it's quite far off being an actual sandbox game.

Just to chime in on this sandbox discussion. In every TES game I've played (Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim), you can move pretty much any object in game, corps and all. You can kill others in the game, and the effects are permanent (at least in Morrowind, it even reccomended you to restore a previous save if you killed someone in the main storyline). In that sense, you are manipulating the environment, leaving your prescence on the gameworld. That and the free roaming nature of the games make it a sandbox to me. You don't need to literally effect the landscape, like planting trees and moving dirt, to call a game sandbox. My opinion, of course.

In multiplayer game you have the pressure of the community to be as powerful or good as possible, which makes many gamers to roll the flavour of the month build/class, and that's not very fun imo or immersive to see all of those spellcasters to turn into hulking berserkers now that the zerker abilities got buffed.
In singleplayer game you can make the kind of build you want without anyone telling you how much it sucks and why they wont take you into a group if you run with a build like that, hence fixed classes works a bit better in multiplayer games imo.

The ability to "manipulate physically" anything in the world came well after sandbox play already existed. Sandbox did not start with games that let you build stuff, it started with people moding existing games and developers providing a gameplay mode that let you run around in a game with unlimitted/ or near unlimitted access to content, but not having to actually complete the game.
Some games had a feature called god mode. Others had one called sandbox mode. It's were the entire idea came from. It never had anything to do with building anything.
Sim city is the earliest game I can think of that I could build in, it isn't, nor has it ever been called, a sandbox. It's an open-ended strategy game. UO was the first game I ever saw that you could build a house in. I played RPG well before UO ever came out, with a sandbox mode enabled.
UO didn't invent the sandbox feature.
One of the Baldurs gate games had a hack or option to enable sandbox mode. It's the only nonobscure game I can remeber that was popular that I could do that with, it's was also why I loved those games so much. It just went on forever and didn't end; the only way an RPG should be playable.

I agree with the OP. So far with the very little information somewhat leaking out, it isn't boding well for my taste and for what I love the ES series for.

The confusing part about this game is:
I myself ever will like a good Daoc2 but feel they probably miss a chance here cutting the Elder Scrolls Virtual World Part that makes the flair of the games.

But, every single class and level based game I played had balance issues and FotM classes and builds.
Rift was the last themepark I played for any real length of time.
Was warriors, then rogues, then mages, then clerics and then back to warriors again.
In vanilla wow I could pvp against level 60 with my hunter at level 45. I could kite everyone until and kill them slowly. Then it was shaman, then it was rogues, then it was mages, then it was clerics, etc. etc.
EQ, EQ2, L2, CoH, and on and on and on.
There is no such thing as a balanced MMO, it's not possible, and developers know it's not possible. That's why pretty much every game has this cycle of nerfs and buffs.
I remember I couldn't raid with my hunter in WoW. Already had a couple. I had to roll a mage in order to raid with my guild at one point. Again, class based, or freeform progression doesn't change a problem that exists in all MMO's. In class based ones it's usually about playing a NEEDED build in order to make sure you can group stuff. It's one of the big questions when people start in a new MMO, "what class is need most?" It's always been that way. Tanks and healers are always the easiest class to get in a group with, dps classes are always harder. I can Q as a tank, or dps in Rfit, if I don't Q as a tank I would sit for up to an hour waiting to do a dungeon, Q as a tank and it would take only a minute or two. Was like that with every single class that gave me an option to either heal or tank and dps. I played every role in Rift to 50, and raided with a mage and a cleric.
The gimped class problem was solved a long time ago by just letting people retrain skills. It's also possible to dummy proof a freeform system by not making overly complex (Anarchy online), and making sure that the skills you would take will be viable to your class.
Besides that, ES character progression is impossible to gimp yourself. It's entirely use based, with only spells being purshased; you couldn't gimp yourself with skyrims skill set up. You can put caps on the amount of skills you can learn to avoid the godlike issue. You could do like MO does and allow the unlearning of skills if you want to switch from 2 handed swords to a one handed mace. You can level out damage so that your choice in weapons and magic come down to style prefernce.
There are always going to be problems in any MMO. It's not inherent to any one way of doing things. It's just the nature of being huge online games with more unknown variables then the devs can ever solve. If you can't do it because it can't be balanced, then the entire genre should have been scrapped a long time ago.
BTW. Meridian 59. First graphcal MMO. Came out 17 years ago. Still running today. Guess how it's played. Not like WoW.
PS: spelling and gramatical errors just gets worse and worse. hand is like a dead fish.

iPod nano Jailbreak: Movies, Calendar Events, and Passcode Lock coming soon?
Developer and hacker, James Whelton has managed to "Jailbreak" the iPod nano, getting past its cache comparison and installing a rather simple tweak that can remove default apps and replace them with 'blank spaces' on the nano's springboard. This can open up the iPod Nano to more hacks and mods from other hackers, including the ability to potentially view Movies or TV Shows, set Calendar Events and set a passcode lock.
Whelton pointed out some hidden strings that he discovered in the iPod nano OS as well.
Next is the discovery in some of the device's plists of reference to support of Movies, TV Shows, Apps, Games, vCards, Calender events and so on, with a few other cool things like a passcode lock. With the bypass I figured out, I hope to enable these pretty soon. It seems like the OS is a rehashed version of the previous nano's OS.
Details on how to jailbreak the iPod nano are said to be released in a few days. It'll be interesting to see what Team Jailbreak will do with the newly hacked Nano. Would you want Movies and TV Shows on such a small screen? Are there any particular mods you would like on the sixth-gen nano?
Check below for a video of the hack in action.

iPod nano Jailbreak: Movies, Calendar Events, and Passcode Lock coming soon?
Id be down, especially since I'm wearing it on my wrist as a watch. I'd use events and maybe movies to kill some downtime. Why not? If its got the availability, might as well take advantage of it.
Time for someone to create an Iphone Nano with all this jailbreak science, just like the Peel for the Ipod Touch(http://www.gadgetvenue.com/apple-peel-520-ipod-touch-phone-case-08062156/)
As indicated yesterday, with tethering please !

Its big, green, scary and, apparently, very tasty.
Alligator meat has become a popular seafood in South Carolina, with South Carolinians snapping up the chewy, pork-like meat almost as fast as stores can put it in their freezers.
Gator meat, which comes almost exclusively from the tail, is typically a by-product of processing. Gators are wanted more for their leathery hide, usually to make clothing and shoes, according to Mark Kelly, a sales representative at Inland Seafood, a distributor in Atlanta, Ga., and the largest distributor in the Southeast.
Lucius Moultrie, owner of Palmetto Seafood Company in Columbia, said he started selling gator around 2009 in one- and five-pound packages.
David Young, owner of Roastfish & Cornbread in Hilton Head, said the restaurant typically sells 20 to 25 pounds of gator a week during the summer. He said few places in Hilton Head sell gator meat, but the food is popular among tourists, especially with kids.
According to Young, gator is prepared in a variety of ways, but it is typically served as deep-fried nuggets. Young said his restaurant also sells the meat in a smoked pork/gator sausage and as ribs. He also has a recipe for shrimp and gator chili.
Mike Godbout, general manager of Sellsfish Premium Seafood in Summerville, said he started selling gator in 2011 and has seen sales gradually rise. On a good week, he said, he sells about 30 pounds.
Why has gator meat become so popular? Moultrie, Young and Godbout cited credited the recent rise in popularity to History Channels Swamp People, which documents the life of a gator-hunting family in Pierre Part, La.
Paula Huff, who co-owns Huffs Seafood on James Island alongside her husband, Bill, had trouble acquiring and selling the meat during last years recession because gator farms in states like Georgia and Louisiana stopped harvesting the animals until the economy improved.
Good news for the Huffs and other seafood markets arrived when Sen. C. Bradley Hutto, D-Orangeburg, proposed R167/S714, the Captive Alligator Propagation Act, in May 2013.
The act was signed into law by Gov. Nikki Haley April 14, making regulated gator farming, the process of carefully raising gators specifically for slaughter and processing, legal in South Carolina.
The Huffs have been selling gator for a decade. Gator, Paula Huff said, can be cooked just like almost any other meat. She said a number of her customers come from outside the Charleston area to buy gator from her.
Jay Butfiloski, the Department of Natural Resources alligator program coordinator, said that no special licensing is required to sell and distribute gator in the state, though standard inspections and regulation from the state Department of Health and Environmental Control are required. However, special licensing is required to privately hunt gator in the state, and hunters are subject to a number of restrictions. The recently passed law, Butfiloski said, subjects gator farmers to special licensing and inspection from the Department of Agriculture.
Gator meat sells for about $12 to $14 per pound. According to Moultrie, thats roughly double from when he first sold it. Despite the high price, he said, the meat is not always available because of its high demand.
David Szam, a sales representative at Lowcountry Shellfish, a distributor in Charleston, said the product is especially popular at gullah restaurants across the state.
Most of Lowcountry Shellfishs meat comes from a gator farm in Crescent City, La., and the distributor provides for about 35 locally owned restaurants and fish markets and dozens of chains and franchises.
Szam said that gator as a food is a love it or hate it thing, but most people try it anyway for the novelty of eating something exotic.
