The roof is one of the most vital parts of your entire property. This means that it needs to be maintained by professionals that have experience and can provide roofing services that offer the highest level of quality. Trying to choose a roofing professional by just flipping through the Yellow Pages is never a good idea. You need to make sure that you take more care and consideration when you are choosing a roofer to deal with your next installation or repair project. Roofing companies are not all the same, which means that you need to know the helpful tips that allow you to choose the best roofing contractor for the job.
These are the three tips that are most helpful when you are trying to choose a roofer:
Do They Have Experience?
The thing that you need to be most concerned with when you are choosing a roofer is the amount of experience that they have. It is highly recommended that you choose a roofing company that has been around for at least five years. This means that you will be able to more easily evaluate the type of reputation that the roofer has because they have sufficient experience and have been in business long enough. You never want to be the guinea pig for a roofing company that has been in business for a couple of years, or less. It is best to hire a roofing company that has been there and seen it all before. These are more often than not, the roofers that provide the best roofing services.
Referrals Can Help
One thing that you can rely on when you are looking for which roofer to hire is a referral. This means that you should ask friends and family, within your area, which they choose when they are in need of roofing services. This will allow you to hire a roofer that you know will do a good job and give you a rate that you can afford. If you are looking to make the best decision that is most informed, it is a good idea to ask for referrals from any roofer that you are thinking about hiring. This will ensure that you are making a wise decision.
Estimates Matter
It is also important to hire a roofing professional that offers free estimates. This will enable you to compare rates for a number of different roofers and allow you to choose the roofing company that offers the most value to you. Please make sure that estimates are apples and apples. You may find different roofing contractors offer different solutions or materials. That being the case, decisions must factor in more than cost. Ultimately, you want the best job then the best price. Roofs are a long-term investment.

Somewhere in Manhattan's trendy Chelsea is this office building, which just so happens to have a subway car in it.
The discovery was made by the excellent ScoutingNY, which points out the subway car is actually more of a replica than a real car. ScoutingNY also did some research and found out the car used to serve as the offices of B-Train Films, though they've since moved to a new location.

Badman™ is another inspired by the bold attitude that made our X Metal® collection so coveted among those who break rules – not to be different but to defy a world where everything is the same.
A super lightweight aluminium die cast frame at the heart of the model. The driving force behind the lens is the glare-reducing performance of HDPolarized. The comfortable Three-Point Fit is enhanced with the sure grip of Unobtainium® components, the mechanics of custom-engineered spring hinges, and a nose bridge of sandblasted O Matter for rare aesthetics and added flexibility.
The Polarized Black Iridium lens works best in Extremely bright light. Comfortable lens tint that offers truer colour perception. Features an Iridium® coating for maximized glare reduction.
Plutonite® Lens
One of the most optically pure materials used in eyewear today, it maximizes clarity and impact resistance while filtering out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm. Not a coating, the UV protection is from the lens material itself.
High Definition Optics®
High Definition Optics® (HDO®) is a collection of patented technologies that allow Oakley eyewear to meet or exceed the testing standards of the American National Standards Institute for optical clarity, visual fidelity, and impact resistance.
Impact Protection
Backed by decades of innovation, Oakley performance eyewear offers uncompromising protection against high-velocity and high-mass impact. The protection is a benefit of the premium materials and unique architectures of Oakley lens/frame combinations.
UV Protection
Eye damage attributed to ultraviolet light includes cataracts, pterygium and macular degeneration. Our Plutonite® lens material filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm. The protection is from the lens material itself.
Three-Point Fit
A patented innovation that ensures the frame makes contact only at the bridge of the nose and the sides of the head. It holds lenses in precise optical alignment with a secure fit that eliminates the pressure points common with frames that hook the ears.
The high strength-to-weight ratio of Oakley's aerospace-grade aluminum alloy minimizes weight to optimize comfort. The durability of the alloy allows for bold sculptural designs with aggressively original styling.
A soft hydrophilic synthetic, it increases adhesion when wet to grip better when you perspire. This makes it ideal for earsocks and nose pads in performance eyewear.
Oakley HDPolarized®
Improving safety, comfort and performance, Oakley HDPolarized lenses filter out 99% of reflected glare without the haze and optical distortion that can come with polarized lenses made with conventional manufacturing techniques.
A stress-resistant frame material that withstands environmental extremes, it is lightweight yet highly durable. Controlled flexibility enhances impact resistance while contributing to the all-day comfort of frames made with this innovative synthetic.

Enough already: "They always complain about regulation," says President Barack Obama about businesspeople in an interview published over the weekend with the Economist. "That's their job." Obama defends his economic policies in the interview and also says the business community has broader responsibilities than just to itself. Here's more:
So the point, though, is that I would take the complaints of the corporate community with a grain of salt. If you look at what our policies have been, they have generally been friendly towards business, while at the same time recognizing there are certain core interests—fiscal interests, environmental interests, interests in maintaining stability of the financial system—where, yes, we're placing constraints on them. It probably cuts into certain profit centers in their businesses. I understand why they would be frustrated by it, but the flip side of it is that they'd be even more unhappy if the global financial system unravels. Nobody has more of a stake in it than them.
Candidate Paul? Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky hasn't said whether he will seek the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. But as The Wall Street Journal reports, his aggressive groundwork seems to point to no other outcome. Paul on Monday begins a three-day, 10-stop swing through Iowa, marking his 10th visit this election cycle to one of the first three states on the traditional nominating calendar. And in recent weeks, he has announced political hires in Iowa, New Hampshire and Michigan—states key to winning his party's nomination.
'Mean' Congress: You'll be hearing more about the "mean" Congress from the White House in the days leading up to the midterm elections, the Hill writes. Those in President Obama's circle say it's no coincidence that with fall elections only months away, Obama is ramping up attacks on a "do-nothing" Congress. Tommy Vietor, a former longtime Obama communications aide, tells the Hill: "All of us have always thought he's better with an opponent and someone to fight against."
'Side issue': Texas Gov. Rick Perry says unaccompanied children who have streamed across the U.S.-Mexico border are a "side issue" compared to illegal immigrants who have committed crimes. Speaking over the weekend on CNN, the Republican said 203,000 illegal immigrants have been booked into Texas county jails since September 2008. He said those individuals are responsible for more than 3,000 homicides and nearly 8,000 sexual assaults. "I wish the president would respect that desire of Texans and citizens of this country to secure the border," Perry said, according to Politico's recap.
Rubio on immigration: Florida Sen. Marco Rubio said Sunday that comprehensive immigration reform will "never have the support" to pass in Congress, and an alternative may be passing it in stages. National Review has a closer look at comments from the Republican, who said: "We're not debating what to do – we're debating how to do it. I'm just telling you we will never have the votes necessary to pass in one bill all of those things – it just won't happen."

iCloud and Apple?
With Apple's formal entrance into what I've been calling the Cloud Revolution, we take another step closer towards the coming App/Cloud Stock Bubble that I've spent the last two years positioning for.
Everybody you know is trying to figure out what this whole "Cloud" thing is and every investor you know is trying to figure out what stocks will benefit from it now that Apple just truly introduced it to the mainstream.
I've had several huge winners in the Cloud Revolution that subscribers to my TradingWithCody.com service see me trade in real-time and I continue to build those positions and to add new Cloud names as the opportunties to do so arise. So if you'd like to find out which Cloud stocks I own right now, including what options I'm buying to maximize my profits in them, please be sure to check out TradingWithCody.com. But in the meantime, here is a collection of a lot of my writings and analysis on the Cloud Revolution with lots of stock picks layered throughout:
- The best tech investment theme for 2011 (updated with video) Feb. 5, 2011
- You're in the cloud: 5 stocks for the sector April 26, 2011
- 30 Stocks for the Cloud Revolution April 26, 2011

- The best two pick-and-shovel stocks for the Cloud Revolution May 17, 2011
- Riding the cloud May 24, 2011
- Shut up and buy the tech bubble May 26, 2011
Apple's new iCloud will need billions of dollars of further investment in the next couple years to make it work and to keep it working. It's not that these cloud supplier stocks are going to jump 50% on announcements like this from Apple. But Google, Apple, Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Yahoo, Facebook, RenRen, LinkedIn and every other tech/content company on the planet is going to have to start spending billions upon billions to stay up with Apple's iCloud.
As I've been doing for my whole investment life, I'm focused on finding the guys selling the picks and shovels to these companies now which are going to be racing for the cloud gold rush much more aggressively tomorrow than they are right now.
Riverbed and Cypress are my two favorite suppliers into the cloud gold rush and if you'd like to find out the other cloud stocks I own, please do check out TradingWithCody.com.
At time of publication, Willard, author of Revolution Investing and Trading With Cody, was net long Apple, Google, Microsoft, Riverbed and Cypress though positions can change at any time. None of the information in this column constitutes a recommendation by Willard of any particular security or trading strategy is suitable for any specific person.

Malloy, clergy celebrate opening of New London Homeless Hospitality Center
New London — The New London Homeless Hospitality Center opened its new facility in a former church Wednesday afternoon to the cheers and support of hundreds of religious and civic leaders, including Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, and volunteers from across the state and those closer to home.
"It's amazing, right?" asked the Rev. Carolyn Patierno, past chairman of the homeless center's board of directors. But she wasn't just talking about the sparking new facility with its 50 beds for men and women, laundry and shower facilities, a day room with access to computers and telephones, and eventually, a health clinic and an eight- to 10-bed respite center for those discharged from hospitals or recovering from illnesses.
She was also referring to the 16 religious leaders from across the region who joined her in a prayer, "Blessed be this place and all who enter here." It was also repeated in Hebrew, Spanish, Greek and Polish.
Those battling mental illness, alcoholism and drug addiction need a place like the shelter to survive, said Malloy, who addressed hundreds who stood elbow to elbow in what will soon be the bedroom for 50 homeless men and women at the shelter at 730 State Pier Road.
"Without these facilities, we expect them to go it alone. But no one can go it alone. ... The most likely outcome here is recovery," Malloy said.
State Sen. Andrea Stillman, D-Waterford, also spoke at the dedication.
Located in the former Sts. Peter & Paul Polish National Church, the new shelter was built with support from the state of Connecticut, as well as 30 foundations and individuals. Guests will receive comprehensive services at the new location, including health care, counseling referrals and housing assistance.
"I'm proud to live in a state that fills a compassionate need," said Cathy Zall, executive director of the shelter. "We are stronger when we care for each other."
The shelter's $800,000-a-year budget is supported by faith communities, state and federal agencies, foundations and private donations. New London, East Lyme, Groton, Montville, Stonington and Waterford also make annual contributions. The organization, which also runs a thrift store downtown, has 18 paid staff, including eight or nine full-time positions. Volunteers also are a large part of operation.
An overnight shelter at St. James Episcopal Church and the daytime hospitality center at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation, both in downtown New London, will close with the opening of the new center.
On Wednesday, the former rectory of Sts. Peter and Paul Polish National Church, which has been renovated into offices, was dedicated as the Father Emmett Jarrett Hospitality Center.
The late Emmett Jarrett, an Episcopal priest and champion of the homeless, helped start the shelter in 2006. A plaque was also dedicated to Frank Loomis Palmer, whose foundation, established 70 years ago, contributed numerous grants to the organization over the years. The Palmer Fund and Jarrett's estate are two of the largest supporters of the project, center officials said. The state also contributed $500,000 toward the $1.2 million project.

I think you will enjoy that link. There is so much more to find just in the bible alone. I didn't need anything more then that to convert me to atheism.
The book "the End Of Faith" by Sam Harris is all about how dangerous religion is to all of us. The movie "Religulous" is about that too.
I wish you well with your project. Hope this helps.
Biggest suggestion I have is to just stick with it until you get through the Pentateuch. It gets pretty mind-numbing about half way through Exodus, and it remains so most of the way through Deuteronomy. The real sucking doesn't begin until Numbers.
After you get out of the first 5, is picks up rapidly. The Histories are written in a more tolerable narrative-style.
Great, One way to gain some information is probably to study the bible and how it compares to rituals and stories of other faiths. There are many parallels between the story of Jesus and those of other mythological characters such as Zeus, Hercules, and Osiris.
In forming the actual group, I would suggest getting in touch with other, more national or statewide Atheist groups, such as the American Atheists organization. They could definitely give you some pointers.
Hello Kaila G,
I think you're doing what you need to be doing (and I'll try to do regularly): reading the bible paying attention to detals, and confronting, if you have the possibility, with other versions of the bible, because they differ. In an ideal world, the best solution is to read it in the original languages it was written, but that's beyond many of us.
Reading carefully the bible, both the old and the new testament, will provide you with many examples contradictions, besides adultery, genocide, bribery, lying, scientific improbability and impossibility, etc and historical mistakes.
You might or might not know there are not historical (chiristian or not christian) references to any "Jesus" during the historical period the christians claim him to have been alive. The first notices appear at about 70 maybe more years of his "dead", seemingly from a Greek source.
You could also use the excellent book which is "The god delusion", by Richard Dawkins, as a guide to many paragraphs in the bible which are good examples of actions the christians either ignore, or prefer not to mention maybe because there are too embarassing for them.
There are also the gospels the church decided they "weren't good enough" to be part of the official bible, therefore not in the bible. A quick google research could address you to those, although I always recommend research books.
I hope these informations help you.
Good luck!!!
This world needs persons like you who find an ideal soon in their life and then also take a timely decision to work for their ideal. I hpoe you will really do it and succeed in your objective. I also hope that you will find like-minded people who will strengthen you. Wish you best luck!!
I'm not sure why you guys seem to think that it's a choice between the bible and atheism. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam aren't the only religions out there, and I don't think a person is an atheist just because he or she has realized that the bible is full of ridiculousness.
Anyway, Kaila, I think you will quickly become disenchanted with the intellectual capacity of most people. If you're looking to connect with like-minded people, that's cool, but don't think that you're going to convert others. Religious thinking is so deeply ingrained in people that it doesn't matter how ridiculous it is, people will blindly believe. Most Christians that do realize how absurd the bible is will tell you that it was written by people and not by God, so it doesn't really matter all that much. What their faith is then based on, I can't tell you, they just say that it's faith in God and Jesus that matters most.
The Gnostic Gospels may help you as well. Revelations 22:16 is an interesting passage. You have to show them that their own faith is flawed. I'm not sure if you noticed but in Genesis there are two creation stories with two different Gods and people.
I hope this helps as well.
Happy researching <3
One of the things I would do is an internet search to see if there are any atheist groups in your area. They could be a great resource for you.

Supercar Sunday: Lamborghini Veneno Roadster Makes Debut; McLaren P1 Guns for Nurburgring Record
The Lamborghini Veneno was already something of a neon strobe light attached to a mortar that plays electronic dance music compared to the stoic stealth missiles that were the LaFerrari and McLaren P1 during the Geneva Motor Show this year. But while those cars were all about Formula 1 technology and lap times (more about that later), the Veneno was about the sizzle, about enthralling driver and passenger with the best irrationality conceived by humankind. Consider the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster more of the same, but amplified. Powered by the same 6.5-liter V-12 engine with 750 horsepower, the Roadster exposes its passengers to the elements, letting them experience more of the visceral thrill. Power is routed to the ground via a seven-speed automated transmission, and the car comes in at least 400 pounds beneath the Aventador on which it's based, now totaling 3,278 pounds without fuel or any other liquids. By comparison to the Veneno coupe, this car is practically mass production. Whereas the Veneno coupe will find four copies made--one prototype and three sold to U.S. and Middle East customers--Lamborghini says that nine Roadsters will find their way to production. The price? A cool 3.3 million euros, or about $4.5 million at today's exchange rates, not including taxes.But speaking of those stealth missiles--and certainly not to be outdone--the million-dollar McLaren P1 now has confirmed performance statistics that put it into another realm versus just about anything you will ever ride in. Zero to 62 mph? 2.8 seconds. Top speed? 217 mph--electronically limited as not to get too close to the 240-mph McLaren F1 from the 1990s. Fuel economy? 28 U.S. miles per gallon. Seriously. This 903-horsepower hybrid supercar elevates its performance on all levels and may just be the fastest car in the world. Porsche recently set a new record on the Nurburgring in Germany at 6 minutes and 57 seconds with its 918 Spyder. Before that, McLaren was bragging about a 7:04 Ring time. However, now that Porsche has laid out its record time, McLaren is likely to go back with its lighter, more powerful car to see what it can to do change up the pecking order. Production on the P1 has begun, with the first customer having just taken delivery. Buy one of the 375 being made while you still have a chance. Sources: Lamborghini, McLaren

California Department of Transportation
Headquarters – Sacramento
Mark Desio
(916) 654-2380
April 8, 2010
On Wednesday, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) took historic action and authorized two regional projects to move forward under the state's new Design-Build Program. The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro)/Department of Transportation (Caltrans) ExpressLane Project (I-10 and I-110) and the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project are the first local design-build projects authorized by the CTC under the landmark legislation (Senate Bill 4, SBX2 4) signed in 2009 by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The CTC had previously authorized three Caltrans projects at their February 2010 meeting.
"The Commission's action represents the start of a new era for highway construction in California and is a welcome addition to the state's public contracting toolbox," said Caltrans Director Randy Iwasaki. "Both projects are excellent design-build procurement candidates that have the potential for achieving improved delivery efficiency and significant job creation."
The LA Metro/Caltrans ExpressLane Project is a joint state/local project slated for implementation by Caltrans on the state highway system utilizing one of the ten slots allocated to Caltrans. The LA Metro ExpressLane Project will take existing carpool lanes on the Interstates 10 and 110 Harbor Transitway and convert them to high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, or ExpressLanes, scheduled to open in 2012. The project will provide commuters with new and better travel options along two of LA County's most congested corridors and create 2,400 construction-related jobs.
The RCTC SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project is a local transportation entity project slated for implementation by a regional entity on the state highway system. The Commission's decision provides an important approval for RCTC to move forward with a $1.3 billion plan to widen State Route 91 through Corona with the addition of new freeway lanes, toll/express lanes, expanded freeway-to-freeway connectors and better access to and from the freeway at congested locations. The project is expected to create 20,000 jobs.
The passage of SBX2 4 in February 2009 created a mechanism to address
innovative contracting methods like design-build. The legislation provided
for a pilot program for design-build contracting, providing authority to
Caltrans and local transportation agencies for up to 15 design-build
transportation projects. The statute authorizes use of the design-build
method of procurement by regional transportation agencies for up to five
projects, and by Caltrans for up to 10 projects, subject to authorization
by the CTC. The design-build portion of the bill will sunset
on January 1, 2014. SBX2 4 also permits design-build for certain other types of public projects and allows the use of public-private partnerships for transportation projects.

Bono's Unusual Request to Hillary Clinton
An unusual request made by Bono is among the latest E-mail revelations to surface from Hillary Clinton's private server.
According to People magazine, the U2 frontman asked a former Bill Clinton aide if it were possible "to do a linkup with the International Space Station on every show" during the band's 360 Degrees tour. Hillary's aide Huma Abedin and Clinton Foundation executive Doug Band both replied, "No clue."
Though the hoped-for hookups never took place, U2 featured footage from astronauts aboard the space station during shows on the North American and European legs of the 360 Degrees tour.
Bono has long been close with the Clintons. He performed at the dedication of the Clinton Presidential Centre in Arkansas in 2004.

My Boy Bentley
5th August 2008, 11:55 PM
My three year old Cavalier started getting really soft stool and started pooping more than usual about a month ago. He got put on prescription food by the vet and it seemed to get better, still not firm, but more regular and he was going less. I started introducing Natural Balance slowly, and he went right back to soft stool. This is the third food if tried. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions? My vet just says it's trial and error, but it's getting expensive and time consuming.

In my earlier post titled Cellphones aren't allowed while driving, you naughty children I slammed the recent law which made driving while using a cellphone illegal and proposed a better alternative. Now, there's an article in the NZ Herald which supports my contention that there is no need for yet another law in this police state which tries to drown us in a stinking swamp of legislation.
Here's the article in its entirety:
A Dunedin woman who was too busy texting her friends to notice the patrol car following her has been charged with dangerous driving.
The 25-year-old, who was returning from a trip to Naseby, was spotted by members of the public crossing the centre line on State Highway 1 between Waikouaiti and Dunedin, Senior Sergeant Mel Aitken said.
She was also alleged to have reached speeds up to 140km/h, Ms Aitken said. A marked patrol car followed the woman, with the officer observing her car crossing the centre line and exceeding the speed limit.
The driver was pulled over before Pine Hill where she admitted she had been texting a friend. She is to appear in the Dunedin District Court this month on the dangerous driving charge.
I simply cannot see any need for a ban on using a cellphone whilst driving when there are already laws that cover the results of doing such a thing in a dangerous manner.
Can you see what is happening here? Instead of merely wanting to punish wrongdoing (as in the case of the woman above [1]), the state is wanting to prevent wrongdoing, by making the use of cellphones whilst driving illegal. The only way to prevent wrongdoing is to take away the freedom of people by putting up fences around them and that, in my humble opinion, is unadulterated evil. When Big Brother and Nanny State start copulating we get cops controlling what you and I do in the course of our daily lives.
I believe that talking and texting while driving is dangerous and inconsiderate of others, but I do object to making it illegal.
Please read my earlier post in order to see a better way of dealing with people who use cellphones whilst driving.
1. I would not classify what this woman did as wrongdoing because she did not breach the non-aggression axiom. I would classify what she did as stupid and inconsiderate of others in the extreme (I'm not saying that she's stupid – I'm saying that she did a stupid thing).

The arson at the mosque in the town of Lauffen on Thursday night caused material damage before the imam managed to extinguish the blaze. There were no casualties.
Stuttgart prosecutors and local police said five people were being sought for attempted murder, AFP reported.
A joint statement said, "several Molotov cocktails were thrown into the mosque through an open window". adding that they were treating the incident as a possible racist or anti-Islamic attack.
Germany is home to some three million ethnic Turks. On Saturday the leader of the community, Gokay Sofuoglu, denounced the incident as an "inhuman crime" and an "act of terrorism".
There were 950 attacks in Germany last year on Muslims or places linked to Islam, according to the interior ministry.

The platform shoes to-die-for were Frank N. Furter's in The Rocky Horror Picture Show - those bejeweled white heels made Tim Curry's first appearance as the sweet transvestite the epitome of glam. And gorgeous he was too.
Elton John may arguably have had the best platform shoes, but his tended to veer into stage props, eventually leading to those sky-high Doctor Marten boots in Ken Russell's Tommy. And of course, there was David Bowie, Twiggy, and a host of pop stars sashaying around London on pairs of ankle-breakers. Like Oxford bags, bell bottoms, high-waisters, and bomber jackets, the platform shoe epitomized the androgynous nature of seventies fashions. Originally devised as stage shoes in Greek theater, platforms have been in and out of style through the centuries, at various times used by prostitutes to signal their availability and profession (to literally stand out from the crowd), and were popular in the 18th century as shit-steppers, used to avoid effluent on the road. However, their greatest impact was in the 1970s, when they were the boot of choice for seemingly everyone under 30.
I had a pair of 5 inch heels, blue patent leather, divine to walk in, impossible to run in, and not the expected school uniform. This British Pathe featurette takes a look at the trend of platform shoes from 1977.

With all of the extensive media coverage of the Midwest blizzard,an extreme cold event in the Southwest has gone virtually unnoticed.Today,Phoenix,Arizona was colder (44 degree max,a record) than Juneau, Alaska (46).A record low of 27 is expected tommorow morning.Tucson is going for 18; any colder and a new monthly, not daily, record will be set.There may be some serious crop damage as a result.Buy your veggies soon;prices could be going up!
Meanwhile, all we can disgustingly look forward to is more of the semi-permanent "dirty" ridge and some dying warm fronts for excitement.I`m still hoping for some major retrogression in the ridge,but it sure looks questionable.Well,at least it dried up enough the past week or so for me to dig and plant my peas today.

Jon Fortt at Fortune interviewed Greg Joswiak, VP of marketing at Apple for the iPod and iPhone, and the biggest news is about the iPhone. Joswiak looks forward to having "a real SDK" that will allow "legitimate developers to come into the space." By that latter comment, he was not dismissing hackers, or "grassroots, small developers," as they apparently say in marketing. However, the main worry appears to be those grass roots, or at least a few bad seeds. To that end, Joswiak pretty much confirms how security and application development will work together.
One of the things Steve talked about in his open letter is something Nokia's doing, which is requiring a digital signature. That way if there's something wrong with an application, you have a way to track it back to where it came from.
Aside from that, there's not much real information about the iPhone, like where the hell the updates that increase functionality have been. The music store is not a to-do list or wireless syncing.
As for the iPod, Joswiak effectively states the obvious: Apple has reached saturation in a number of markets like the US. Interestingly, the enemy is not Microsoft and the Zune in a country like China, where the iPod holds a market-leading 8 percent share.
We're actually competing against "Other" – the off-brands that somebody's trying to sell only on price, and not establishing any value in the market, which gives us a better opportunity because we're the ones that are actually building value in the market. As a result, it becomes easier to grow your share against "Other" than it is against name-brand, well-established competition.
On the Mac, Jon Fortt tried to get Joswiak to open up about making laptops. In the article introduction, it mentions that Joswiak "pushed for the company to produce a 14-inch iBook," but that doesn't come up. The rumored subnotebook isn't mentioned, either, but then that's strictly Macworld Keynote material. As interviews with Apple executives go, it's better than most, though the bar is admittedly low.

The dear dear pope, so consistently hateful and harmful and bad. Yesterday he launched his new Twitter account and blessed the Ugandan legislator pushing the "kill the gays" bill.
Pope Benedict XVI has given blessings to Uganda Parliament Speaker Rebecca Kadaga during a mass attended by thousands of pilgrims at the Vatican," Nsimbe Kasim at the Ugandan New Vision news reports.
He hates secularists and loves people who want the state to kill gays. What a mensch.
Then today – how productive he is! – he used his "peace day" message to bash same-sex marriage.
The pontiff said on Friday: "There is also a need to acknowledge and promote the natural structure of marriage as the union of a man and a woman in the face of attempts to make it juridically equivalent to radically different types of union.
"Such attempts actually harm and help to destabilise marriage, obscuring its specific nature and its indispensable role in society", the Pope told worshipers.
That's not peace.

I bought this for my sister who is graduating soon. She spends a lot of time on her cell phone, and I thought this would be a personal and usefu giftl. The image is a bit dark but over all nice quality. The charger came with some charge (blue light came on). It looks easy to use, and I'm eager to see how my sister likes it!
I have always been a very artistic person and have learned many crafts over the years including woodworking, crochet, painting, macrame, counted cross stitch, jewelry making, silverware art and now photography. I just started photography in the summer of 2013 and have totally fallen in love with it. I am self taught which makes it quite a challenge but I enjoy every minute of it. I am so addicted to photography now that the weather doesn't stop me. I've been out in minus 12 degree weather on the Lake Michigan lakeshore in high winds just to take photos. I love it. I only wish that I could do this full time as I would shoot photos all day, every day if I could. I started out doing landscape photography and then branched out into...

This page provides an Index of Animated Surgical Knots. Each photo is a link to the Interactive Step by Step Animation. The picture shows all the knots as a reference.
Welcome to Surgical Knots
Introduction: We introduced this section partly to accompany our research on surgical knots showing that the Constrictor is markedly superior to knots usually employed by surgeons1. The paper has generated interest and, as a result, the Royal College of Surgeons has kindly made it Available On Line.
Animations: We show four techniques for tying the Constrictor in Surgery as well as animations for Surgical Ties and Ligatures – all tied from the surgeon's viewpoint. Each animation can be flipped to suit right-handed and left-handed operators or inverted to help an instructor guide a student sitting across a table.
Names: Surgical Ties are commonly described as "One-Handed" or "Two-Handed" – slightly confusing because both techniques involve two hands. We have added the names "Push" and "Pull" based on the way that the end is guided through each knot.
Practical Considerations: A completed surgical knot may be out of sight. So, the technique may create the intended Square (Reef) knot or it may create an unintended stack of Half Hitches. This partly explains the custom of adding multiple extra Half Knots. The Constrictor provides a method of which eliminates this risk.

Considerable attention and effort have been made to ensure that these descriptions are accurate.

Sudan sentences 19 men for wearing women's clothes
KHARTOUM (Reuters) - A Sudanese court on Wednesday sentenced 19 young Muslim men to 30 lashes and a fine for breaking moral codes by wearing women's clothes and makeup, a case exposing Sudanese sensitivity toward homosexuality.
Many of the defendants tried to hide their faces from the around 200 people who watched as they were lashed straight after their sentencing. The men had no lawyers present and said nothing in their own defense.
The trial judge said police had raided a party thrown by the 19 men and found them dancing "in a womanly fashion," wearing women's clothes and makeup. He said there was a video of the party and that one woman who was present had fled the scene.
The defendants were charged with violating Sudan's public morality codes.
Local newspapers reported that the party was held to celebrate a same-sex wedding, propelling it into a talking point all over Khartoum's conservative Muslim society. The court on Wednesday made no mention of a marriage ceremony.
One lawyer present, who declined to be named, said legal advocates would have been afraid to take on such a defense.
"These people did not get a chance for justice," he said. "Public opinion and the media prejudged them and lawyers were too scared to come and defend them."
Islamic sharia law has been weaved into Sudan's legal code and was a sticking point in a 2005 peace deal which ended more than two decades of civil war between Khartoum's Islamists and the mostly Christian and animist southern rebels.
The south was exempted from sharia but it still applies in Khartoum, where many non-Muslims live. Khartoum's women's jail is filled with southern non-Muslims convicted of manufacturing or selling alcohol.

In the heart of Ketchum, Idaho, blocks from Sun Valley, the oldest ski resort in North America and a land seriously steeped in ski heritage, lies the Board Bin, arguably the oldest snow and skate shop in the Northwest, and ground zero for the area's thriving shred scene.
Like most people in town, Jim Slanetz is a transplant, who began snowboarding on the East Coast in 1982 before opening his first snowboard shop, Board with Life, in Burlington, Vermont to avoid getting a real job. Slanetz sold the shop in 1986, and diligently funneled the proceeds into supporting his shred habit in the Alps. When the funds ran dry, Slanetz moved to Sun Valley and opened the Board Bin in 1988 with his business partner and wife, Karin Reichow.
"Our first shop here in Ketchum was in a heated garage and we lived in the back," explains Slanetz, who is a fixture on the mountain and knows every inch of it. "I think we opened at 1 pm everyday so we could ride in the mornings."
As the Board Bin celebrates its 25th anniversary, we caught up with Slanetz at the 2012 TransW0rld Snow Conference for a tour of the shop, a look at what's trending, and the highlights of the last quarter century.
Looking back, what have been some of the best moments for you over the years?
For me, the biggest highlights have been the events we put on and rallying the community behind us to get the Ketchum Skate Park built. Another high point is that we have great employees in Dave Kelso, who has worked for us almost 19 years, and Lydia Wills, who has worked for us almost 14 years. [They] have allowed us to spend time with our kids Ziggy,13, and Shea, 10, and even live in Garmisch, Germany for a school year.
My friends back in New Hampshire are always way more impressed that we've had movie stars such as Bruce Willis, Tom Hanks, and Robin Williams shop at our store.
How did this season go for you?
This season was about the same as last year—not great but decent enough. I think most retailers that are still in the game have made the necessary adjustments to keep their businesses viable. We are lucky in Sun Valley because with the great park and unbelievable snowmaking, conditions were really good even with this year's meager early snowfall.
What's your customer mix look like as far as locals compared with tourists?
We are about 50/50 in the summer and winter, but in our spring and fall slack seasons it's the locals who keep us alive.
What are the biggest changes you've seen since '88?
As the longest running specialty board shop in the Northwest, we have seen a lot of changes in the industry and sport over the years. Locally owned shops are key to keeping boardsports thriving. This year we have been involved with putting on our annual skate contest, a rail jam, a banked slalom, a Go Skateboarding Day picnic and a grand opening celebration for the new section of the Hailey Skate Park. We are also working with the city on an expansion of the Ketchum Skate Park. These type of things naturally happen with a local shop and dedicated board community. Internet retailers and big box stores will never be able to have the same effect on local scenes.
On a somewhat related topic I think our industry, as do most in the open market, have way too many product choices. We should really be somewhere between Communist Russia and where we are today. There are far too many consumer choices confusing retailers as well as consumers. Simplifying lines would be a benefit to all players on the product chain. It would also allow smaller retailers to be more competitive with online stores that are able to carry a wider range of products.
How are inventory levels looking after the winter?
A little high especially on outerwear. I am a firm believer that it is OK to mix in last season's softgoods with in-season merchandise. Good product is good product and often snowboard companies are so forward in their styles that it takes us here in Idaho a little while to catch up, so last year's outerwear sometimes does better a year later.
You guys have a really broad mix of skate, snow, and apparel for guys, gals, and groms. What have been your three best performing categories over the last year?
With two great Dreamland built skateparks in the valley our skate business is fairly consistent. Shoes are also a category that remains strong. Our biggest growth has been in the kids category for both boys and girls.
On the product front, what have been your three best selling brands and SKUs so far this year?
We do really well with our shop apparel—Board Bin and Sun Valley/Ketchum T's and Hats.
The three next best SKUs are:
1.Red Bearings
2. Toms classic canvas slip-ons
3. Volcom youth stone socks
Snowboard-wise we do well with Yes, Lib Tech, and Never Summer.

So do we know how far the 2nd season is supposed to cover up to?
If I were to make a guess as to where the endpoint would be, then I'd say it would be when Guts and company flee Flora's home about a third of the way through v27. The first season roughly covered five volumes of material (17-21) plus about the last third of v16. Since that endpoint means they would have to cover about the same amount of material give or take (volumes 22-26, plus the first third of v27), I'd say it's a good estimate. But don't quote me on this.
Looks like the anime is to resume in April with a preview of sorts on May 3rd. Official dates will be posted on the website (of course).
MAY preview??
Looking back on the special digest video together with the cast members in the first phase of the 12th episode of the first phase, the second phase of television animation of the strongest dark fantasy "Berserk" that begins in April is finished.
I think Delta meant March 3rd actually.
and now some type of berserk thing?
https://twitter.com/berserk_anime/status/833482984984498176http://berserk-anime.com/news/index00890000.htmlStaff & Cast revealed along with a character visual of Berserker Armor Guts.
Looks like a fan art... Not saying it doesn't look good, but I won't be impressed until I see it in full motion.And why aren't we seeing a voice actor for Grunbeld? Something tells me this is some sort of omen.
I bet you still won't be impressed once you do see it in full motion.As for Grunbeld's absence, it's possible they just didn't consider him an important-enough character to consider listing him in the cast here. However, being as he plays a major part in the debut of the Berserker Armor, which they're so far banking all their promotion of the series on, I agree that it's a bad sign. Wouldn't be surprised if they just omitted him entirely or turned him into a voiceless grunt.

Craftools are an investment that will last for years to come! In most types of carved leather designs, the beveler tool brings the design into three-dimensional relief. Using this tool correctly, along with proper moisture content of your leather, produces a nice burnishing (darkening) effect around your design. Our book, "Tech Tips" #66056-00 by Al Stohlman, illustrates "correct" and "incorrect" examples of beveling. Approx. stamp dimensions: 3/16x3/16.

Dave Richeson, author of Euler's Gem, was interviewed on the Wild about Math! podcast this weekend.
Listen in at the Wild about Math! site or Download the MP3
Here is what interviewer Sol Lederman says about the program, "Professor Dave Richeson is one of the most exuberant math people I've gotten to know but I didn't know how exuberant he was until I interviewed him. He's also involved in a bunch of neat projects. It was one of these projects, documented in Dave Richeson's blog article, How I teach topology: an inquiry-based learning approach, that caught my attention since I have a real passion for collaborative learning….Richeson is a mathematician, math professor, and math blogger. He loves topology and geometry among other things. He's taught inquiry-based math which engages students to the n-th degree, he wrote a book for Princeton University Press "Euler's Gem," about Euler's polyhedron formula, he's working on a new book about four classic construction problems, and he's finishing up an article "Who first proved that C/d is a constant?" We discuss all these things on this podcast."

Shelton's Lauretti considering run for governor
The allure of higher office is once again beckoning Shelton's mayor of two decades, Mark Lauretti, who could join an already crowded field of presumptive Republican challengers in next year's gubernatorial race.
"I've been discussing it with some people," Lauretti told Hearst Connecticut Newspapers Monday.
Despite a published report over the weekend that he will seek the GOP nomination, Lauretti said he had not made a formal decision.
Lauretti, 58, cruised to an 11th term in 2011, capturing 65 percent of the votes cast in a rematch of the 2009 election against challenger Chris Jones. It is unclear if Lauretti, who was first elected in 1991, will seek a 12th mayoral term this November.
John F. Anglace Jr., president of the Shelton Board of Aldermen, said Monday that if Lauretti does decide to run for governor the city won't let him go without a fight.
"We do not want him to go and will not let him go," said Anglace, adding he personally hasn't heard anything from the mayor about running for governor.
Multiple Republicans are testing the waters for a challenge against first-term Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, who public opinion polls show faces a tough re-election in 2014. They include former U.S. ambassador to Ireland Tom Foley, who lost by 6,500 votes to Malloy in 2010; state Senate Minority Leader John McKinney; and Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton.
Twice before, Lauretti has flirted with leaving his comfort zone of Shelton. In 2010, he started a petition drive to get on the Republican ballot for governor, only to suspend his candidacy because of a federal corruption probe in his city that led to the imprisonment of two local developers and Shelton's former building inspector. No charges were filed against Lauretti, who has maintained his innocence throughout the scandal.
Last year, Lauretti briefly entertained a run for Congress against U.S. Rep. Jim Himes, D-4th District.
"Mark is a dedicated public servant who has led Shelton to an economic revival during the past two decades," said Jerry Labriola Jr., chairman of the state GOP. "Certainly, a mayor of a small city who is already running a government would be well equipped to move our state forward as governor."
Lauretti's supporters credited him with keeping the city's taxes in check for the last seven years. In May, the city's budget had a slight decline in the tax rate from 22.4 to 22.31 mills. His critics say he has not worked hard enough to provide more funding for the town's school system.
Tom Carson, a Justice Department spokesman based in New Haven, declined to comment on the status of the corruption probe involving the city of Shelton.
In September 2010, developer James Botti was sentenced to six years in prison after being convicted of buying approval for his 828 Bridgeport Ave. plaza project.
During Botti's sentencing, Senior U.S. District Judge Charles S. Height Jr. said he hoped the sentence "would send a message to contractors that they can't do business this way."
In April 2011, developer Robert Scinto was sentenced to six months in jail for making false statements to the FBI while being questioned in 2008 about gifts and benefits he provided to city officials and employees.
In February 2011, former building inspector Elliott Wilson was sentenced to five months in prison after admitting he received building supplies and cash from a developer.
An ethics complaint against Lauretti over a townhouse project on a property owned by the mayor was recently thrown out.

THURSDAY: 10th Circuit Appeals Court hears argument in Oklahoma marriage case
April 15, 2014
This week, on Thursday, April 17, the United States Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit in Denver will hear oral arguments in Bishop v. Smith, a federal lawsuit that seeks the freedom to marry in Oklahoma. The hearing, which begins at 10:00am Mountain Time, comes one week after oral arguments in a similar case, Kitchen v. Herbert out of Utah. Both cases entered into the appeals court with a victory at the district court under their belt.
The Bishop v. Smith case, which had been pending for nearly ten years before the federal judge ruled in January that anti-marriage laws in OK are unconstitutional, and the Utah case could have far-reaching impact on the state of the freedom to marry in the country. The appeals will certainly impact marriage laws in both states, but they could also have a wider reach. Because the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals covers six states - Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah and Wyoming - a broader ruling could potentially impact these other four 10th Circuit states as well as UT and OK.
These 10th Circuit hearings kick off what well may be the penultimate chapter in the campaign to win the freedom to marry nationwide: This spring, a wave of activity will sweep through the federal appellate courts, as nine different marriage cases face consideration in five different appellate courts. One of these cases – or perhaps one of the more than 60 active lawsuits nationwide seeking the freedom to marry or respect of legal marriages – could make its way to the United States Supreme Court. The Supreme Court would then have the chance to provide national resolution on marriage for same-sex couples.
You can learn more about the long history of Bishop v. United States HERE, in our oral history with lead plaintiffs Mary Bishop and Sharon Baldwin. And don't miss our Live Blog of the oral arguments, which will provide context for why marriage matters throughout the day.

The Volkswagen GTI series offers an affordable and well-made option for those looking for performance as well as economy. As a long-running model, the GTI expects to fare well both in new sales and as a used car.
The early 1900s saw a massive push by forward thinking people and companies into the virtually brand-new automotive industry. Both in the U.S. and in Europe brilliant engineers and planners created the predecessors of the cars, trucks, and SUVs consumers enjoy today. The Volkswagen company provides no exception. This company had a bit of a late start compared to some of the American companies with its doors opening in 1938 at a brand-new plant.
World War II brought some changes to the plant, and the people there received orders to make armaments for the German army. Thousands of people were forced to work in the plant, such as prisoners of war and concentration camp prisoners.
Fortunately, following the war, when Volkswagen came under the responsibility of the British Military Government, the company turned its attention back to building cars and the famous Beetle came into production in 1945.
Since that time, the designers and engineers of Volkswagen have continued to offer all kinds of cars and vans for the public. In addition to the Volkswagen Beetle car and van, the company also produces the GTI. This series has become one of Volkswagen's most popular models.
The one thing Volkswagen has been known for since the beginning is producing affordable cars and vehicles people can rely on. With the GTI series, it continues this tradition. Over its years of production, there have been a variety of changes made to the series, but it has always been known for its reliability and driver-friendly features. The GTI, in its earliest form, often receives credit for bringing the hatchback craze to the American public. With it comes a new appreciation for the smaller and more fuel-efficient car options.
The GTI series from Volkswagen draws on the Rabbit and Golf series also produced by the German carmaker. With the GTI series, however, Volkswagen chooses to experiment a bit by adding more powerful engines and shaper suspension systems to boost the power and performance of the car. The result has been an overwhelming success, especially among Volkswagen fans.
The modern Volkswagen GTI makes another appearance as a performance model of the Golf. Much like in past generations, the GTI comes equipped to provide drivers with higher speeds and better performance than the more sedate Golf series. This model also offers a reasonable price tag compared to other hatchbacks with this kind of performance and powertrain. Interested buyers will find the GTI available in two- and four-door body styles as well as two trim levels, the base and the Autobauhn.
The base model features a variety of very nice standard amenities such as a sport suspension system, full power accessories, and cruise control. This model also features a trip computer, an eight-speaker sound system complete with a CD player, and heated front seats. The upgraded Autobahn naturally has all of those features and several more. This version comes equipped with 18-inch wheels, an upgraded sound system, and keyless entry and ignition.
Both the base and the Autobahn remain similar under the hood. Volkswagen has given these cars a turbo 2.0-liter, inline four-cylinder engine. A standard six-speed manual transmission couples with the motor. It also offers an optional six-speed dual clutch automated manual transmission or DSG for short.
Used car buyers can most likely find the GTI available from the fourth generation to the current one. The fourth generation saw production from 1999 to 2006. These cars come equipped with a 2.0-liter engine in its GLS trim level. This model offers either a manual or automatic transmission. The GLX differs a bit with a 2.8-liter, six-cylinder engine that pairs with a manual transmission system only.
The fifth generation debuted in the middle of the 2006 model year and continued until 2010 when the sixth generation began. For the fifth generation, Volkswagen equips with GTI with a turbo charge, four-cylinder motor. Buyers can also choose from a standard six-speed manual transmission or the optional DSG transmission system. This generation only comes in the two-door body style for the first year of production. By the 2007 model year, the four-door version joined the lineup again.
While the past versions of the GTI provide good choices for a used car purchase, since the models vary so much, buyers must pay attention to the various aspects of each generation and model year.

Super Sunday is fast approaching, and it'll be interesting to see what kinds of commercials some federal tax payer dollars will have funded (at, oh, about $3 million for a 30-second spot). As always, I'll be interested in the Coca-Cola commercial, the one last year was fantastic. If you're interested in these commercials, you can visit YouTube.com/AdBlitz after the game on Sunday, and even vote for your favorites. I wonder if, some day, we'll have something like this make it (it's from the late 1990s). It'll grab some front page headlines, don't you think? :D
A public service message: Drink water, not Coke!
