Israeli official tells NYT that White House gave 'specific commitment' to back Israeli refusal to talk to PA government that includes Hamas.
Published: 04.29.14, 13:44 / Israel News
Israel has received "a specific commitment from the American administration" that it supports Jerusalem's vehement opposition to peace talks with any Palestinian government that includes Hamas, the New York Times on Monday quoted an Israeli official as saying.
A senior State Department official refused comment to the Times, saying the administration was "not going to reveal the details of private conversations."

Are parents to blame if their children are morbidly obese? Are parents guilty of neglect if their children gain too much weight?
Remember this case? A 14-year-0ld South Carolina youth weighed 555 pounds and was put in foster care.
Can't we just blame Bush for childhood obesity?
I think parents are responsible for taking care of their kids. How we define "taking care of" is very much a matter of class. Can the parents afford to take their child to a physician? Can they take time off from work to take their child to a doctor? Can they afford the services of an endocrinologist? Can they afford fresh fruits and vegetables? Do they have time to cook, or are they each working two or three jobs? Is there a market in their neighborhood that has fresh food? Or is the nearest food market three-quarters of an hour away by public transportation? And so it goes… You never see rich people with fat children. Is that because they hide them away? Is it because they have a personal trainer? Is it because they can afford nutritious meals? Will we ever know for sure?
You don't like bagels Vegas? I used to live in the midwest too…great cheese, sausage, and pop…very poor bagels. If you tried a Eastcoast bagel, I am certain that you wouldn't throw up.
And if Vegas had a hot, fresh NYC Bagel, She could never go back to a midwest bagel again!
Where I went to college in the Bronx, there was a bagel factory a few blocks down the hill, under the El on Jerome Ave. We bought them by the dozen in a plain brown paper bag. Nothing has ever come close since. The store-baked bagels at Stop & Shop are a distant second.
I've had Cincinnati chili. Make some spaghetti. Open a can of Hormel chili, heat it up and throw it on top. Chop onions, throw on top. Grate some longhorn cheddar, throw on top.

Vegas, my aunt would never have allowed me to call anything with cinnamon or nutmeg by the name of "chili." I suspect a good dose of ketchup goes into it, too.

BP Oil Leak Containment Efforts Continues: The British Petroleum (BP) which owns the oil rig should ast track its actions to contain the oil spill. The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is getting larger and larger as time passes by. On its latest update, the oil spill which started from an oil rig explosion last April 20, 2010 in the Deepwater Horizon owned by Transocean is getting closer and closer to the Louisana coastline which poses a threat to the marine life over there.
US President Barack Obama has called every possible action to contain the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico from continuous leakage. As of last week, a third leak in the oil rig was found which is throwing the most amount of oil into the water.
According to several experts, the current situation of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico may probably surpass the extent of the BP oil spill which happened in 1989 from Exxon Valdez in Alaska. That particular oil spill is so far considered as the worst oil spill in the history resulting to millions of environmental damages particularly in the livelihood of fishermen and in the wildlife. Currently, it has already reached more than half of the size of that oil spill.
I hope they do the fastest possible action to contain this oil spill in Gulf of Mexico from further leakage to the water. Companies who have the necessary oil spill machineries like boom oil equipment should coordinate with the authorities. I've heard that these boom oil equipments clean oil spills and contains them to avoid further leakage.
So far, the US Government has already taken its action to contain this oil spill which is spreading fast in the Gulf of Mexico. Last May 2, BP begins accepting claims for the Gulf Coast oil spill via BP's helpline at 1-800-440-0858. To date, more than 1 million gallons of oily water have been recovered and 367,881 feet of Boom have been deployed. Let's all be united to prevent this oil leak from further damaging us.
Efforts to contain the BP oil spill centered is now centered in a solution called LMRP or Lower Marine Riser Package which involves a channeling of the oil leak to a nearby Discoverer Enterprise. This drillship, in turn will collect the oil and gas and then spew it out of the ocean to avoid further injuries.
I think people and most especially companies like BP and Transocean should be more careful enough the next time they drill another oil rig.

[...] Oil Spill Update: BP Oil Leak Containment Efforts Continues Daily Top Trends – May 14th – 12:09 [...]
So, years ago I worked for Hallibuton services as a operator. Cementing casings in and plugging up the wells.
Solution to spill. Put back down the concrete bell and instead of sucking up the mess pump concrete down displace all the water and oil and entomb the wellhead in concrete.
Mark Moritz
Good luck to us all.
Why are they fussing with all that broken pipe. can't they cut the pipe at the well head use the regular capping equipment to shut it down completely? At least they could clear it off to make the problem simpler. Then it would be easier to cover the leak or plug it or cap it and quit dancing around this terrible problem. Keep it simple stupid. ps Watch JohnWayne in the movie Hellfighters. Maybe you can get some ideas from that.
A satirical report on the BP oil spill– the companies responsible want to charge U.S. gov't for it! http://bit.ly/bbOza8
I have a solution for stopping the flow of crude oil from flowing from the severed pipe. I would need to be compensated if you use my solution. Please contact me through email. Robert Robison.
We need to empower the creative capacity of the entire world to efficiently develop solutions. A good way to do that is through use of a wiki like Wikipedia. http://oilspill.wikia.com is a site doing that but is not well known. The best solution is for the Unified Command to set up such a wiki and we should all call our reps in congress and demand as much. We should also demand that all relevant engineering data be released to give the motivated engineers and laypeople alike the information they need to develop the best solutions.
Not until we've done these things and empowered the collective intellect of the world can we begin to say all resources have been brought to bare on the crisis. The congressional switchboard number is (202)224-3121. You can call that and ask for your representative. The Unified Command suggestion number is 281.366.5511.
Well the problem Madeline Watkins is that if they cut the pipe off complety, then they will have a but load of pressure comeing out the ground, so therefor they cant cap it nor seal it. they will have a bigger spill if they cut the pipe complety off. This is my idea use the same chemical they used on the last oil spill. what they do is pump the chemical in the line with pressure, which will clog up then keep pumping untill the hole is clogged up. then once they done that put cement in the hole. and cut the pipe off. then they can drill another rig some where else. Also everyone who is blaming BP for this. I belive you are wrong. It is not BP fault, if anyone is to blame it would be, DOT they are the ones who checked the pipe last. Also i belive our president is not doing enough to help BP out ( just my opinion). Bp is not to blam on this one, just cause everyone hates the gas prices dont mean they got to blame BP.
To Robert Robinson…..Don't you think they have smart enough people to repair the leak if they really wanted it fixed?
I have a repair rig design for them also….I've contacted them, but I've yet to hear a peep out of them. I would expect compensation just as you would….there is no free lunch for profit seeking oil companies. We can come up with all the repair ideas in the world….if they have an agenda there's not a thing any one of us can do.
Robert Robinson, are you serious? compensation on something that could very well save millions of our dollars not to mention marine life that affect you? You should be honored if they even considered your idea, but from the sound of it, it is more than likely just as ignorant as you.
This is both horrific and discusting at the same time. Not only are they harming the lives of sea life, but they're also losing money from travellers. They're saying Canadians should cut our protection pipes that can stop an oil spill in approx. 1 dayv , but look what they have done, due to their dumb ideas. If animals from sea go extinct , then there's no point of travelling. Get plans!
Dana C & Alex Clark please note that the mans name was Robert Robison NOT Robert Robinson. If you would look above you see that it is Robert Robison that made the comment. Pay closer attention next time please. Thanks!
I was told that they were looking for llama and alpaca fiber to help absorb the oil. I have llama fiber and am trying to find out how to help the enviroment now!
I have a very simple solution to stop the leak and/or control the flow of oil. I would like for someone from BP to contact me asap.
I would like to donate llama fiber to absorb the leak but don't know how or where
A possible "quick fix" solution might be to fabricate a semi permiable geotechnic fabric such as that used in some landfil applications in Florida which could be anchored by concrete or steel cylinders. This fabric could then be dropped over the leak. This geotechnic fabric is designed to be water and gas permiable but would trap the thicker oil and thereby contain the oil which would then form thick tar like balls underneath to slow the oil flow out of the pipe. This solution may work until a more permanant capping of the pipe could be accomplished.
Hi guys.If you guys have brains who can go to the moon,how on earth cant you stop the leak.Assemble the best brains of oil professionals to crack a way out.Let not leave the spill to BP only.Lets all combine effort to sort out the mess.Once the leak is fixed,way now look for who to blame!Twende kazi!!!
this is bull shit
[...] Oil Spill in Gulf of Mexico 2010: BP Oil Leak Containment … [...]
having an oil super tanker parked there with a pump capacity 2X the amount being pumped through the pipe by the gas pressure will vastly increase the number of solution options.
Dear Madam / Sir,
The solution to shut off the oil flow can be had with the Theodore Cap. The Theodore Cap is like a fluted dowel, wider at the top and tapered down to the bottom. The bottom should be about 3/4 of the top. The flutes start at 2 feet from the top down. The 2 feet top, without the flutes should fit the inside diameter of the blow pipe. Included in the 2 feet top is a wider part about 3 inches with a rubber seal that should rest on top of the blow pipe. The bottom of the Theodore Cap should be rounded to deflect oil pressure to the sides and to channel the oil pressure into the flutes. The whole length and weight should be in correlation to the depth of the hole and the pressure, to be decided by on site specialists. The Theodore Cap should be constructed of high grade dense concrete with no re-bars, as they in time may corrode.
Thank you very much for your consideration. Ted
Call in demolition experts to assess their recommendations for imploding on the rupture.
When I was a teenager I remember watching dredging operations in the Buffalo NY harbor. Explosives were detonated in the rock river bed and finely crushed stone was then removed. Also, at that time I did a chemistry term paper on atomic energy and I recall that one of the critical designs of the atomic bomb was specific placement of charges to drive the U235 segments to critical mass under swift and extreme pressure.
Would it be possible to concentrically and with proper geometry place charges in the Gulf rock bed and detonate them so that crushed rock under enormous pressure would seal the leak? Demolition experts could help with the viability of this idea.
I know, most will say that I'm a nut for suggesting to crack open the entire oil deposit, releasing all the oil for an even bigger ecological disaster. However, explosive shock waves can be focused.
think helium balloons.lower fabric folded of say 50 linear yards.attach pump hose securely to top.allow cigar shaped fabric to sink with a skirt around the leading end.secure skirt to sea bed away from leak with concrete blocks.release fastening to skirt and using the pressure of oil to inflate the balloon.allow oil to partly fill the balloon to neutralise the pressure from outside.release second,third and fourth tie to allow oil to maintain equilibrium of pressure.start pumping.the cigar shaped balloon only needs to be of suufficient diameter to contain the amount of oil actually spilling.job done.
install an inverted cap with a hard neophene rubber boot that would slip over pipe and flange,and an oil hose line from top of fitting to the surface.
If its a pipe that needs to be blocked, why not insert a smaller pipe inside it and inflate a thick rubber balloon inside the bigger pipe. Same principle as with a medical angioplastie but on a bigger scale with high pressure. The balloon could be kept inflated with a high pressure tank attached to it.
This is exactly what our Fearless Leader should be doing, but he has no concept of how to get different groups, including industry, to work together. All he can do is blame, sue, threaten, set up commissions, and make empty promises, which by the way, may ignore the rule of law ("forcing" BP to set up an escrow account? c'mon!) Furthermore, he's turning this into an international incident by directing so much hatred at BP, instead of figuring out better ways to work with them. They're the culprits, but also our best hope for fixing the problem. Worst of all, he and his advisors have NO IDEA what they could be doing, because they're all just lawyers and politicians, who always think in terms of courts and legislation, not SOLVING REAL LIFE PROBLEMS. Please just fix the problem, don't screw around with compensation schemes for people who want to work, or talk about legal action, until AFTER the problem is fixed.

Why hasn't anyone tried making a sideways
valve( like a ( HOT PATCH )? They can use a cylinder with 2 or 3 flex pipes hooked to it and a valve on top of that. Use the flex pipes for diverting some of the pressure and oil to some barges or tankers, this will leave less pressure to deal with will installing the valve to cut off the flow. Use 4 chains or cables and pullies with 1 or 2 man submarines to slide the valve and lines sideways over top of the leak.Pull tight with the pullies, even if you have to use an above water ship or two. Then underwater weld the the cylinder and valve to the leak.
Remove and seal off the pressure lines going to the barges, permenantly.Use the pressure lines to create a large vacumn cleaner, of a sort to recycle the oil spilled. Thanks; Willie of
Trinity, Texas
Says Don't Mess With Texas !!!!!
Real containment solutions – use the SQUID to channel the oil to the surface, then skimmers siphon off the oil from the top containment pool – the oil never spreads out, and it never comes close to our coasts! Environmentally friendly, no chemicals in the water, no wasting of millions of bales of hay meant for livestock, contains the oil from spreading and harming more wildlife, no nukes! Allows divers and machinery access to the ocean floor leak for repair/rebuild. Or allows them to drill another well 20 feet over for pressure relief of the leaking well.
i'm glad BP is paying for it, but they are also paying for things that the government is responsible for, like putting all the oil men out of work by not approving their permits. BP would be doing much better if they started listening to the public as well, not just the government. Have you heard of using a SQUID? Super-Quick Undersea Incident Device – and it will contain the oil at location, instead of waiting until it is so spread out it's a disaster. The SQUID device is using the KIS method and letting the oil flow naturally to the surface in a contained environment, instead of putting a pressure cap on it. it can still be used to stop the oil from spreading even more, while they are waiting on the relief wells to be functional.

The site of all this oil sickens me , I have been in the oil patch in Canada for about 25 years , I like willie's idea , Sliding a full port valve over the cut pipe and weld it ,then close the valve , WHY IS THIS NOT DONE . You could even go in with a packer . With the all the brains in the oil patch this should be fixed !!! Not the biggest desaster in the world , and to me that is where it is headed.
Please use an Idea that will shut this down NOW , We will be paying for this many many years .

Plants - Flower Bulbs
Bulb strategies for continuous spring blooms
From gardens to pots to the front lawn, try these techniques for a colourful show
Planting bulbs in a lawn
Embroider a lawn with bulbs for an artlessly beautiful display. Best candidates are small bulbs that naturalize (i.e., multiply on their own), such as snowdrops, crocuses, grape hyacinths, scilla, species tulips, striped squill and dwarf daffodils (large daffs are fabulous naturalized in a meadow, if you're lucky enough to have one).
Rather than plant the bulbs individually, cut rectangles in the turf, peel it back, dig in some slow-release bulb food and plant the bulbs following the directions on page 1, then simply roll the turf back into place instead of mulching. Don't set the bulbs too symmetrically; toss a handful and plant them where they lie. Avoid high-nitrogen lawn fertilizer, which will encourage foliage at the expense of flowers; use a balanced organic
fertilizer (10-10-10) instead.
Don't mow the lawn, either, until the bulb foliage has died back (this can take up to six weeks—so not for neatniks but Dagwood types will be ecstatic).

Skyway is a lovely older campground. With the mega campgrounds around nowadays, I would hesitate to call it a resort though. Nonetheless, we greatly enjoyed our stay here in R1 & R2 with family members. The owners have run Skyway for 45 years and now their children help out. All of them are extremely friendly and helpful and contributed to our enjoyable stay. There were a few negatives. Primarily, they do need to address the access to the campground. The turns are really too sharp for the bigger rigs. There is a lovely area near the front entrance called Strawberry and would be perfect for big rigs but there is still at least one sharp turn to maneuver. The access to this area could be reconfigured and should be really. I believe the owner puts some weekenders up in the back (which is up a decent hill). If they want privacy - that's great, but if they want to use any of the amenities, they've got a hike. Everything is down the hill and most is across a very quiet country road (pool, basketball court, pond). Now on to the positives. We loved this place. Gorgeous sites - most were huge. Wifi was perfect all the time (perhaps they've upgraded since the previous review?), with several transmitters throughout the campground. Roads were graded nicely and we thought they were plenty wide enough. This is the Catskills which means lots of trees! We love that this campground has left so many lovely trees around - it was stunning this weekend with the fall color. But if a branch here and there brushing the top is a concern, ask for the Strawberry or Ridge areas,they're the most open and except for the one inital tight turn, the most accessible. There are quite a few seasonals - although some younger families have left due to the newly remodeled Jellystone nearby. So the crowd right now skews a bit older and quieter. Skyway is the type of campground to relax, do a couple activites they organize and then go find something fun to do on your own. It's not a go-go place. We loved it. With a few improvements, it would be absolutely perfect. We'll definitely be going back. - Gala62

Review for this park dated June 2014 is exactly right on the money in every aspect. Office staff was very friendly. Ridiculous price for a campground with a pool. This park is barely big rig accessible, and not at all big rig friendly. Road to the park is narrow and roads in the park are very stressful to negotiate given the obstacles. We will not return. - Snidely Whiplash
Jun 2014 - $36.00
This campground is in one of the most beautiful areas in NYS. The Catskills are a great place to visit. Unfortunately this campground is in need of a make-over. The sign on the main road is hard to understand on where to "enter" the campground. The office help are wonderful and extremely helpful. The roads are very narrow with low hanging limbs and shrubs that rub the sides of your RV. There are old tree stumps, dumpsters, and large rocks on critical turns that make it even hard to navigate. It is NOT big rig friendly by any stretch of the imagination. About 50% of the campground is occupied by seasonal and about 20% occupied by park models. These sites are messy and owners' cars tend to block the already narrow roads. Wi-Fi is almost nonexistent and the cell service is very poor. The pool and hot tub are beautiful but also across the main road outside the park. Ellenville is not a destination, but it does have adequate shopping. We will not return. - User3766

You use a paint program of sorts to do you comic in. You can either hand draw it and scan it in or do it straight up in your paint program of choice. After that you save it as a jpeg or gif file and upload it on drunkduck. Click on the green button with the + under my comics and you should be able to upload the page you saved.

Commercial Renovation
General Commercial Contractors and Commercial Remodeling
Service areas include Seattle, Shoreline, Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, and Edmonds.
Our approach to commercial renovations is very similar to the way we work in homes and condominiums. We want the process to be safe, as stress free as possible and most of all; we want the end result to make our clients happy.
The difference in a commercial remodel is the scale and timing. These projects can involve multiple stories, special scaffolding, extensive exploration into code enforcement requirements, permitting, land use, zoning and special inspections. We understand that access to businesses while construction work is being completed is a paramount consideration. Our years of experience position us as a market leader in planning for all of these important factors and integrating them into a comprehensive project plan. We are currently working on a project in South Lake Union.
Our in-house design team brings an important piece to that planning. Because we are under one roof, we can collaborate with the decision makers seamlessly and efficiently. Whether you are considering interior design, space planning, additional space or structural repairs, our commercial design team can help.
Recent projects include a multi-story repair of a building with water intrusion that had caused mold, rot, and major structural damage; another building required the installation of eighty foundation pin piles to support a new second story addition; other projects have included reclaiming unused spaces, updating reception areas, and moving walls to facilitate more efficient workgroups.
Whether you are considering a repair, a facelift, a new configuration, more space or a complete transformation, we are here to provide a complete and comprehensive solution for your needs.

Glad's One Bag campaign supports events of all sizes that strive to send just 'One Bag' of waste to the landfill, with the rest being diverted to recycling and compost. Give it a try at your next event, and learn how to waste less every day. It's a small change that can make a big difference.Find out more at Glad.com/OneBag/ or visit the One Bag Sweepstakes.
OAKLAND, Calif. (March 4, 2013) – Party planning is all about the who, what, where, why and when. But now Glad is asking America to consider the sixth 'W' of party planning – waste. Together with actress Tiffani Thiessen and celebrity event planner Heidi Mayne, The Glad Products Company is calling on its Facebook fans to help host a 50+ person eco-conscious One Bag bash. Through a crowdsourced approach, people gets to choose all aspects of this celebrity event that will produce just one bag of landfill waste, with the rest being diverted to recycling and compost.
"I'm excited to be participating in Glad's One Bag party because entertaining and sustainability are two things that are important to me," shared Thiessen. "I'm looking forward to seeing what America chooses for the event and to help inspire others to reduce waste at their own events."
Fans can visit Facebook.com/Glad to enter for a chance to win $10,000 toward their own personal One Bag party designed by Mayne for every vote they cast toward the One Bag crowdsourced party, now through March 31, 2013.
Throughout March, Glad's Facebook fans can vote on everything from the event's location and cuisine to décor and party favors. Each week a new aspect of the event will be featured on the Glad Facebook page for America's votes, with all winning selections being showcased at Thiessen's party this coming Earth Month.
"Glad is thrilled to be working with Tiffani and our fans to create a unique event that shows the types of small changes that can be applied to everything from special events to day-to-day activities to reduce landfill waste and increase recycling and composting," said Kristina Vannoni, Marketing Manager for The Glad Products Company. "We know that waste reduction isn't a problem that can be solved overnight, and we're committed to supporting new waste diversion efforts and educating consumers on small steps they can take against waste that make a lasting impact."
Mayne has designed everything from elegant weddings to intimate dinners for Hollywood's top stars, and knows that an event going green doesn't mean less glam. "When planning parties at home, there's an opportunity to create a feeling of intimacy mixed with extraordinary," says Mayne of Red25 Events. "You don't have to sacrifice style and individuality when introducing eco-friendly elements that promote the three R's into your plans."
Below are a few tips Mayne suggests for keeping waste to a minimum at parties:
Glad launched the One Bag campaign last year – working toward the ultimate goal of sending just one bag of trash to landfill, with the rest being diverted to recycling and compost. To help consumers looking to take their own parties "One Bag," Glad offers a One Bag toolkit (available at Glad.com/OneBag) that provides a how-to guide on planning and executing a waste-conscious event.
Glad is committed to taking small steps against waste, and supports the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) goal to divert 80 percent of solid waste from landfills by 2020. Glad offers a portfolio of products that help consumers waste less, including bags with less plastic, recycling and compost bags. For more information visit Glad.com.

When Does Bones Season 8 Come Back in November 2012 for Episode 5?
Yes, you really did hear that commercial right. After tonight's Bones Season 8, Episode 4, "The Tiger in the Tail," our favorite crime drama really is going away for an entire month.
New episodes of Bones return on Monday, November 5, 2012 at 8 p.m. on FOX.
It will be worth the wait, though. In Season 8, Episode 5, we finally get to find out who Cam's (Tamara Taylor) mysterious new love interest is. Then in Season 8, Episode 6, it's that glittery, often-teased Dancing With The Stars-style ep — featuring Booth(David Boreanaz) and Brennan (Emily Deschanel) undercover as contestants. Now that is something we can't wait to see!

Recently I wanted a Camelbak Havoc but now I saw something that changed my mind: a small-medium sized bag in the sports section of a shop. It was really well padded and looked like it ventilated well and the most important is that it was, as I call it, reservoir ready (i.e., ready to become a hydration pack). It had a pouch for a reservoir, straps to hold the reservoir in position, a hole to route the pipe thing through and a hole in one of the shoulder straps to hold the pipe thing in position. Guess what? The bag only costs 18 euros! (Most bags here cost above 30). Anyway, I'm going to (probably) buy the bag today out of my pocket money (I'll be leaving to stay in Hungary for 6 weeks and won't be back till September by the time it might not even be sold anymore). Then, when I come back in September I'll get a Camelbak water reservoir (27 euros) and make it a hyrdation pack, saving myself 80 euros. Sure, no straps to hold armor or fullface helmet but I'll live. Now my birthday present is not the Camelbak but something else... My cousin is giving me a Shimano Deore Disk hub for free... I could have it laced onto the front and go front disc brake... Hmm.
What do you think of my idea of getting this bag? It's a not well known brand's bag but it seems like it's a really nice bag.
PS: I've only seen 2 and 3 litre Camelbak reservoirs and I'm not totally sure they'll fit. Does Camelbak sell a 1.5 litre reservoir?

The term fanboy is often used to describe in a negative way someone who sticks to one product or vendor just because. The term is intended to be negative because it implies that the person gave no real thought as to how good the product is or how well it fits their needs.
In a discussion about this vendor vs. that vendor playing the fanboy card is a lazy way to try and remove any legitimacy to the point of view of the other side. After all, how can they possibly bring anything useful to a discussion if they are just a fanboy?
Sadly playing the fanboy card is more often than not a lazy way of trying to ignore a different view point instead of addressing it. This is particularly true of Google Android phones vs. the iPhone. Aaron Toponce recently employed this method:
People jumped onto the iPhone bandwagon when it was announced on AT&T for two reasons: Apple fanboys and superior hardware. People getting an iPhone on the Verizon network will be: Apple fanboys.
Aaron Toponce – The Verizon iPhone
The only possible reason for "People getting an iPhone on the Verizon network will be: Apple fanboys." By playing the fanboy card you simply get to ignore any possible counter point. I used Aaron's post because it illustrated the point so well, folks on both sides play this game, it isn't limited to one side or the other.
In the original post there was actually one detail provided, that the HTC Evo 4G is "head and shoulders over the iPhone 4. It's no contest, and it's already outdated hardware". I've never used an HTC Evo 4G before and only played with an iPhone 4 for a few minutes. This made me curious to find out if there is any possible reason why someone would go with an iPhone 4 over an HTC Evo 4G. Fortunately others have already done the numbers comparison for me – Engadget lists numbers for the iPhone 4 vs. the HTC Evo 4G – with a chart for easy comparison.
Since the claim was "no contest" I only looked for things listed on the chart that could reasonably be justified by someone to indeed provide some contest.
- 802.11b/g/n for the iPhone 4, HTC Evo 4G only supports 802.11b/g
- 960 x 640 resolution on the iPhone 4, HTC Evo 4G 800 x 480
- 720p at 30fps video recording on the iPhone 4, HTC Evo 4G 720p at 24fps
- Gyroscope on the iPhone 4, none of the HTC Evo 4G
- Listed talk time, iPhone 4 – 7 hours on 3G, 14 hours on 2G and the HTC Evo 4G – 6 hours
There are several other factors that could come into play, but I choose to limit the list to just specific numbers. Now it is entirely possible that none of the iPhone 4 advantages listed above make any difference given individual circumstances. The flip side is also true, some of these factors may be very important for some individuals. This constitutes a contest between the two.
The next time you get the urge to simply wave off counter points by calling the other side a fanboy, stop and think about what you are doing. Other wise you may end up being the actual fanboy in the discussion :-)


text: Smash vball 24. November 2008 Nolan Carson OITC Comments (4) well, we are unfeated. Is that a word? If not it should be, it means we haven't won any games. Once again, we got smoked and had a few balls spiked on us. This time, I don't remember having any of our own. Don't get me wrong, we had a couple kills. We had a few good plays, we just need a few more games to get some practice under our belt. I'm not sure if we signed up for the best league, but we're doing our best. It has been really fun, and we have a blast making fun of our opponents after the game, as I'm sure they do of us also. This week we are hoping to win atleast 1 game. I'll let you know who get's "Smash"ed in the next post, since I know you can't wait.

Taking action to help typhoon victims
San Diegans are showing their broad ties to the Philippines through a profusion of disaster-relief efforts in the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan, which has killed thousands and left millions displaced since early this month.
Many families in the county, home to one of the nation's biggest Filipino communities, are holding benefit concerts and collecting essential supplies for their hard-hit relatives.
Locally based sailors and Marines, including those originally hailing from the Philippines, are providing security, distributing aid and offering medical care in ravaged towns.
Companies, colleges and elementary classes are raising funds and awareness through special events, from silent auctions to campus assemblies to car washes.
And nonprofit groups here are coordinating relief efforts with partner organizations in the disaster zone. They include PCI (Project Concern International) in Clairemont, which sent a team to work in two areas walloped by the typhoon. U-T San Diego journalists Kristina Le and Nelvin Cepeda have been traveling with them.
"People are coming in and want to help," said Joel Delossantos, a deacon at the First Baptist Church of Spring Valley, a largely Filipino congregation that just finished a clothing drive netting about 30 suitcase-sized boxes. "It's touched us because it's so unlike anything we've seen in a long time."
For the following sampling of local residents, there was no question about taking action to assist loved ones, friends, fellow human beings.
Joel Delossantos, 53, Chula Vista
"I'm Filipino, and I see those people on TV, grieving for their loved ones who have died and they have no way to bury them," said Delossantos at the Baptist church in Spring Valley. "We can't stop calamity, but we can do something to help survivors."
On Wednesday night, the congregation gathered to fill boxes with clothing and other donated items for typhoon victims.
Delossantos said one member will head to the Philippines to personally deliver these contributions to the New Life Baptist Church in Tacloban city, which suffered widespread devastation.
Daughlet Ordinario, 64, Escondido
"I came from Pandan, one of the towns on Panay island that was hit by the recent typhoon. I visit the place every year," Ordinario said.
A San Diego County resident since 1972, she founded the Pandan Bay Foundation to promote music education and after-school programs in her hometown, where 28 families were displaced by the cyclone. She also works with groups that perform medical missions and promote conservation on the island.
Ordinario's family members are safe, but her brother's house was damaged and he lost his noodle-making business. In her last conversation with him before the typhoon hit, he said he had been ordered to evacuate the area.
"It took us like four days after to hear," she said. "I was really anxious, not knowing what was going on there."
Ordinario is scheduled to fly to the Philippines on Dec. 13 but hopes to book an earlier flight. Until then, she is raising money for relief operations through the National Asian American Coalition.
Peter Varberg, 22, Point Loma
Although not Filipino by nationality, Varberg spent much of his life in the Philippines, where his parents still live as missionaries.
"Growing up, typhoons were like going to an amusement park," he said about growing up in Tacloban. "When the typhoons come, you go outside and play."
He knew this storm would be different when his father e-mailed him about concerns that it might damage buildings at Bethel International School, which the elder Varberg founded.
"We have this enormous school building there that for the past couple of years, my dad has been raising funds to build," said Varberg, in reference to an athletic facility on the campus. "It was essentially crumpled. You can't even tell what it is if you look at the (post-typhoon) photos."

From Fab Four FAQ 2.0's page:
R.I.P. Lauren Bacall 1924 - 2014
Word this evening of the passing of the 89 year-old actress. As for relevancy to this page, she was a neighbor of John and Yoko's, as she explains in this exchange with Larry King:
KING: You were at the Dakota when John Lennon was killed? You are there, aren't you? You are around.BACALL: So it seems. I mean, when you put it that way. It's not too appealing.
KING: What do you remember about that night?
BACALL: That night I remember very clearly, too. Because I was in my bedroom with my dog, of course. Because I'm always with one or another of my dogs. And I heard this -- it was a shot, but it sounded like a backfire. And but there was something kind of different about it.
So I went to my kitchen and opened the window and looked in the courtyard. And I saw other people across the courtyard doing the same thing. Looking. Couldn't see anything. So I thought, well, I don't know what that was. It must have been a backfire.
And then I went back into the -- close the window and went and turned on the television for the 11:00 news. And the first news was John Lennon was shot.
KING: Did you know him in the building?
BACALL: Yes. I've met him before, yes. Liked him a lot.
She had something else in common with John, too: they both liked to whistle: http://theimmortaljukebox.com/.....en-bacall/

Very sad that we lost such a talent in Robin Williams the other day, and although most associate the many laughs he gave as his legacy, Robin Williams was a very good singer as well, just ask Sir George Martin:
His acting abilities beyond the realm of humour are very underrated and very few nailed such a versatile collection of outstanding roles. My two personal favourites were his outstanding portrayal of Popeye (not an easy role and I don't think ANYONE could've pulled it off but him) and his work on Disney's Aladdin which, although animated, is probably the most "Robin" of all Robin Williams' performances, Peace & Love to Mr. Williams...:-)

Another one gone this year: Joan Rivers. For those who only know Joan in her later incarnation as a heavily Botoxed fashion critic and red-carpet staple, she was a real trailblazer for women comedians in the '60s, '70s and into the '80s. Didn't spare anyone with her humor, especially herself. An argument can be made that only Lucille Ball had more of an impact on female comedians than Joan did. (And Joan would always tell people that Lucille was the real queen.) Whoopi Goldberg, Kathy Griffin, Sarah Silverman, Rosie O'Donnell, Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Ellen DeGeneres, Amy Poehler... they all owe a huge debt to Joan.
14 April 2010
The first line from the article on the ABC News website: "The world just got a little less funny."
Back in the day, Joan Rivers was one of my mom's favorite comedians. I actually met Joan when she broadcasted her radio show one day from the station I worked at in Phoenix. She had us all in hysterics just prior to going on air.
RIP, Joan.
1 November 2012
What I liked about Joan Rivers can be summed up in two words: audacious irreverence. That quality by itself is not necessarily enough to win me over; but when you add a sparkling wit to it (as she did), it is.
9 August 2011
My wife was a big fan of Fashion Police, and I must say, whenever I'd walk into the room Rivers would be saying something that would make me laugh.
I'm looking at some of her quotes in the paper this morning: "Liz Taylor is so fat that when I took her to McDonald's she got caught in the arch ... no really, she's my two best friends." "When I die I want Harry Winston to make me a beautiful toe tag .... I don't want some rabbi mumbling at my funeral, I want Meryl Streep to be crying in 5 different accents ... This guy I went out with was so dumb he couldn't count to 21 unless he was naked [took me a few moments to figure that one out]"
"I don't exercise. If God wanted me to bend over he'd have put diamonds on the floor." "My breasts are so low I can get a mammogram and a pedicure at the same time"

My grandfather Bernard Collins died last night at 10:52pm aged 96 and 7 months exactly. My brother, a carer and myself were with him and it was very peaceful and painless for him. He wanted and was ready to go and it was better for him.
He was one of the most amazing men i have ever known. Very happy for him as his suffering is over, very sad for the family, his friends and myself. He will be deeply missed and was deeply loved.

@meanmistermustard I'm so sorry about the passing of your grandfather. It is a known fact that we will all die eventually, but we will live on in the memories of those we knew. As George said, "Life goes on within you and without you" and "All Things Must Pass."
8 November 2012
My condolences, MMM. I was very close to my maternal grandmother and it was devastating when she passed. But he is, as you said, now at peace.
20 August 2013
Dearest @meanmistermustard (did your grandfather ever know this alter ego of yours?), I'm glad you got to spend the last few days with your grandad. I hope your healing time is quick.
And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.
It sure sounds like your grandad gave out a lot of love to his family. You sure loved him in return. I am glad he could take that love with him through to the end.

Hello. Thought I'd put up my first attempt at mapping a location that's been rattling around in my head for some time. An inland sea in a hot and humid jungle. I have my own issues with this map, but am interested in what you all think.
I used the "Ascension's Atlas Style Tutorial - Revised" and found it a great help, though lacking in explanation of what each step was doing for a noob like me.

For nearly 40 years, Elliott Sharp (b. 1951) has created a body of work that is exemplary in both its breadth and its depth. Sharp's discography, which numbers more than 300 separate items, includes works for orchestra, string quartet, rock band, blues band, solo guitar, multiple guitars. He is constantly in search of new sounds, processes, ways to create narrative arcs, ways to find music in unexpected places.
Selecting illustrative works from the lifetime of a creative person is a daunting task; doing so with a singularly individual artist like Harry Partch is all the more difficult. More

Recent casting news had actor Richard Schiff (West Wing, The Lost World: Jurassic Park) joining director Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman reboot, Man of Steel, which seemed a little strange since the movie has already been shooting since August of last year. In an interview with I Am Rogue, Schiff revealed that he had actually been cast "over the summer" but is only now joining the production "for the last six weeks."
Reportedly, Schiff was cast as a character named Dr. Hamilton, which comic book fans instantly thought to be the DC Comics character Dr. Emil Hamilton, a genius-level inventor and former employee of S.T.A.R. Labs who has alternately been Superman's ally and enemy throughout the character's comic book history. Schiff played coy at first, and would not outright confirm that his character is the same Dr. Hamilton from the comic books.
I am not allowed to say but I will allow people to draw their own conclusions. They obviously have the same first and last name, so they can draw their own conclusions. I want to live up to the promise to not reveal anything I'm not allowed to reveal.
Schiff then did admit that his character first name is also "Emil" and said that he didn't draw much inspiration for the character from the comic books.
Dr. Hamilton came along very late, didn't he [1987, to be exact]? So I don't even know if I would be able to find those (comic books). Can you find those online? I don't know? So not so much, I mean I did some research into who he was and who people interpret him to be. Obviously he has had incarnations on a number of different mediums, on TV and in animation. They always get interpreted differently so you have to go with what the script has to offer and I've been very intrigued but what they've written. I wouldn't impose some outside idea on what Zack and the writers want to do with this. But it is fun to know all the various incarnations that he's had. Obviously he's been evil in some incarnations, and friendly in other incarnations, and a combination of both in yet other incarnations, so that is fun to have in your mind when you are playing him. But the script goes in certain directions and that is what I will follow.
Schiff would say that his character is "obviously a scientist and he enjoys his work, let's put it that way" and revealed that he has "already started shooting" some scenes for the movie.
I go back again this weekend and shoot for another couple of weeks and then will go elsewhere. So I've gotten my feet wet and have worked with Amy Adams [who plays Lois Lane], Chris Meloni [who plays a general] and a few others. I've gotten to know Zack and he is fantastic. That guy is just an upbeat happy guy.
Schiff also confirmed that he will appear in scenes with Henry Cavill, who plays Superman, but outside of his confirmation Schiff added: "and that is all I can say."
With shooting still continuing on the movie, new set photos have arrived online, with some revealing Kevin Costner walking from the set as Jonathan Kent, Superman's adoptive father, while another set photo of a truck shows the kind of destruction audiences can expect from Man of Steel.
Man of Steel was written by David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight) from a story he conceived with producer Christopher Nolan (Inception, The Dark Knight Rises) that reportedly follows a pre-Superman Clark Kent discovering his powers and trying to find his place in the world. The cast includes Michael Shannon as General Zod; Diane Lane as Martha Kent; Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet; and Russell Crowe and Ayelet Zurer as Superman's Kryptonian parents, Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van, respectively.

Readers Muscle Car Stories - 'Readers' PagesWritten on December 6, 2006
Do as I say
Who: Rudy Resch
Where: Gardena, CA
What: '65 Chevrolet Corvette
Why: Rudy is always there to tell/demonstrate how to do a straight and safe burnout in his twin-turbo small-block Pro Street PSCA car. After this picture was taken, Rudy straightened the car out after punting the 60-foot marker with the back tire. It was found 100 feet away.
Spanks her Husband's
Who: Erika Hendrickson
Where: Houston, TX
What: '72 Pontiac Firebird
Why: Erika built a 455 and dropped it in the Firebird after buying the car for $1,700 with a 350 in it. She kept the 10-bolt and added some sundry performance items under the hood with a mild cam.
She Says: I enjoy spanking my hubby's pretty '72 Camaro. The total project including the car cost less than $6,500 and looks great

Military coup: drive it through the front door
Drive it and this won't happen
Who: Mark with no last name
Where: Middleboro, MA
What: '66 Pontiac GTO
Why: This car was parked in a barn in 1969. In the mid-'80s, the barn collapsed with the car inside. It stayed smashed until someone bought the house and found it while cleaning up the property. The carcass was dragged to Mark Zion's Auto Salvage where the guys just can't bring themselves to crush it.
Genuine Mark Donohue Javelin
Who: Mark Sorensen
Where: Shakopee, MN
What: '70 AMC Mark Donohue Javelin
Why: Mark bought it new in 1970 when he was 17 years old and was smart enough to keep it. He ordered it with a 390, Hurst four-speed, and the Go Pac option.
He Says: I was inspired by Steve McQueen's Mustang and ordered it in Glen Green.
Complete Grand Spaulding Dodge Dealership
Who: Jeff Klawitter
Where: At home, alone we suspect
What: A complete 1:25 scale diorama of Grand Spaulding Dodge.
Why: It looks like the original dealership, and it has lights and speakers that play old Grand Spaulding commercials from WLS AM 890 out of Chicago.
He Says: I have 500 hours in it including many long nights and trips to Chicago getting measurements of the building to complete this.
318, no wait, 360, no wait, Hemi. That's right.
Who: Tory Robson
Where: Woodbury, MN
What: '71 Dodge Challenger
Why: The car was bought with a dog of a 318. When the engine was yanked, Tory found out it was actually a 360, but he didn't care because he already had a 472 Hemi crate engine with a Holley 950HP carb. He added 3-inch pipes with some Magnaflow mufflers for some nice cackle. It had what Tory calls a cheesy vinyl top, which he removed, and he found some nice masking tape covering rust holes caked over with Bondo. The experts at Sharadon Performance in Hugo, Minnesota, sawed the top off, miraculously found a donor lid, and surgically welded it on. On went the 17 and 18 Foose Nitrous wheels for a rubber rake, some A/C, and an Alpine system with Fosgate speakers.
He Says: I'm just a chiropractor who loves cool cars and always has. I promised myself I'd have one again someday. With 550 horses, maybe I'll put "whiplash" on the plates.
Forgotten Muscle
Who: Mike Ringland
Where: Billerica, MA
What: '70 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Why: Because this Monte is in great shape, and first-generation Monte's are forgotten by most. Mike's has a 350 with an Edelbrock intake and a Holley 750 carb.
He Says: I am searching now for a big-block to take the Monte to its full potential.
Two Montes?
What, are we nuts?Who: Scott Lee
Where: Lombard, IL
What: '74 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Why: According to Scott, people are starting to look at his car when he drives it to shows. Even though it's stock, the prices of other garden-variety musclecars have made the Monte cool again.
He Says: At shows, people always seem to notice the Chevy everyone forgot.
Readers' Letters
The FE Score
That white Mercury S55 (Scene, Oct. '06) is way too straight and solid for you guys to pull its guts out. I realize big cars aren't as cool as Torinos and Mustangs. I also appreciate the rarity of the 428. If you must mess with that barge, why not leave it intact and modify it? Suspension and brake mods, some Marauder badging, and maybe wheels? Think about it. If you must yank a motor, I passed by a wrecked Merc convertible last week while visiting Los Angeles. It looked like a tree fell across its rear. Maybe it's got a 428. -Doug Hallberg, large-car driver
The Troz
I just received my first issue of your magazine. While having been somewhat familiar with Car Craft, the single reason I subscribed was because I learned George Trosley's Krass & Bernie was going to appear in your publication. Had I known it was starting in May, I would have subscribed sooner. As long as Mr. Trosley's work is part of Car Craft, I shall continue to subscribe. Thank you for allowing his old and new fans to have continued access to his talents. -Joseph Davis, Tampa, FL
Had to show you this one
Who: Ray Smith
Where: Richardson, TX
What: '84 Chevrolet El Camino
Why: C'mon, look at this thing. It has a 600hp 383 with a Cola steel crank, Olivier rods, SRP 13.0:1 pistons, and Pro Action heads that have been ported to flow 330 cfm. Even better is the monster Lunati solid roller with a stupid 310/309 duration and 0.700 lift. He has to run 110-octane gasoline through the tunnel ram and twin 500 carbs. Of course, it has 3-inch Flowmasters with 3-inch electric cutouts so the guys in the next state can hear the 7,500-rpm shift points. We are so proud.
He Says: It's mostly a cruiser, but it will run low 11s.
Send Burnouts!!Don't be sensible, live a little! Send your burnout photos and be the king of all guys who cannot or will not do their own burnouts.
If you send them via e-mail to email@example.com, always send large files. That's at least 500k and 5x5 inches at 300 dpi (1,500x1,500 pixels). If you don't know what we're talking about, ask a 12-year-old kid. Send tangible photos to Car Craft, 6420 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048.

Reg. ExtJs Shadow Problem
I've created custom window by extending extjs window. I'm seeing a problem after closing the window it's shadow is not getting destroyed, in it's style the display is set to none. This creates some problems when opening windows one over other. What is the solution for this? Do I need to destroy manually the shadow before destroying window?

- CBI receives fresh set of documents from Coal MinistryCoalgate: AG Vahanvati apologises in SC for losing cool during argumentsHalf of Fortune 500 firms to be based in emerging markets, Aditya Birla Group leads: McKinseyCBI files fresh FIR in coal scam, names Hindalco, former coal secretary
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has filed a fresh case in the coal-block-allocation scam against the chairman of the Aditya Birla Group and Hindalco Industries, Kumar Mangalam Birla, and former coal secretary PC Parekh. The charges relate to criminal conspiracy and corruption in the allocation of a captive coal block in 2005 in Orissa, which was pri-marily meant for public sector firms.
Following the registration of the first information report (FIR), its 14th in the case, the CBI carried out searches at the offices of the group across Delhi, Kolkata, Bhubaneswar and Mumbai. Searches were also carried out at the former coal secretary's residence in Secuderabad. The accused have been booked for criminal conspiracy under section 120B of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
The AV Birla Group, on its part, has strongly denied the charges stating that every process stipulated under the coal allocation policy by the government were followed.
This relates to media reports on an FIR naming Hindalco and our chairman on the coal issue. Apparently, this seems to be part of a larger case entailing coal allocation to companies, and being one of the companies, we are being investigated also. We wish to state unambiguously that we have followed every process required for allocation of coal completely, as stipulated by the government policy, a company statement said.
