2013: The year of mobile market fragmentation?
Visits (8281)
On my desk are devices from four players that changed the mobile space and could potentially do so even more in 2013. I have an iPhone that runs iOS, a Nexus 7 tablet running Android, a BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha smartphone, and a notebook running Microsoft Windows 8. (Well, OK. Three mobile devices and one notebook. I am still looking for an excuse to buy a Microsoft Surface tablet.) For the last few years, we have been constantly hearing from developers about the fragmentation in the mobile world. Yes, it was fragmented. There was iOS for the... [More]

Many believe he should be granted clemency because there isn't enough physical evidence linking him to the crime and after his trial witnesses recanted and said police threatened them. Davis' attorneys made a last-ditch effort to save his life by asking the Supreme Court for a stay of execution, but the court denied his motion about 20 minutes ago. Georgia officials are expected to proceed with the lethal injection.

Is this the Happiest Place on Earth? Really?
By Scott Peehl
14 Apr 2008
On a recent vacation to the West Coast I ventured to one of the World's most beloved, and for obvious reasons unnamed, Theme Parks in Southern California. After an hour or so I became fascinated with the lack of enthusiasm on the faces around me. While waiting near a ride to take pictures of my friends as they drove by in a tiny yellow car I decided to snap some random shots of other people driving by.
It quickly became clear to me that most of the people around me were here because of some sort of cultural obligation to have fun. Just one in a long list of "not to be missed" experiences that Americans feel the need to indulge in.
As part of my experiment I began to take photos while walking past crowds of people going the other direction. I just held up my camera and snapped.
Surprisingly it was not hard to pick out photos for this story. Most of the pictures not included are simply out of focus, not of people having a great time or enjoying themselves. Everyone just seemed to be plodding along like Zombies.
The flip-side of this was when I watched people taking pictures of each other to document the great time they were having. All of a sudden faces lit up and smiles gleamed for the camera.
I still wonder how these people would remember their trip to this Kingdom of Magic if they put these candid photos of their trip in their scrapbook instead of the the happy pictures they took of themselves.
The truth is I had a great time with my friends that day and have plenty of pictures to prove it. At least thats what the snapshots I took of us lead me to believe.

Phil Redman, research director for Gartner said, "When assessing the total costs of wireless mobile products, we found that the more capable the device, the higher the cost."
With a wireless modem, the annual cost to a business of a handheld computer rose by $1,392 (£953) to $4,392 (£3,005) per user.
Hardware, software and network services account for 60% of the costs. Some 30% is taken by operational costs, such as technical services and support, peer support, application management and development. A further 10% goes on administration, including evaluation, implementation and training.
The full findings will be discussed at Gartner's Mobile Business and Technology 2002 Conference, which takes place next week (17-18 June) in Denmark.
Redman advised businesses to take into account these management costs when evaluating whether handheld computers gave a good return on investment.
"Enterprises that link mobile technology investments to job functions and bottom-line productivity indicators, such as sales revenue, customer support and internal operations goals, will be successful at defining a mobile ROI," he said.
To reduce overall TCO when deploying handheld computers in a wireless LAN, Gartner advised users to consolidate network service providers, bundle services and aggressively negotiate contracts.

Mother Nature turned on the water works. It rained for days and days, caused quite a bit of street flooding and it filled up our unfinished pool. You can see that it is still raining - we were wondering when it would ever quit. My back yard is a mess and all work has had to quit until the rains stop, things dry out somewhat and then they will pump the rain water out of the pool and get on with finishing up our back yard. This is in July of 2010. Now we have a finished pool and a very nice looking back yard : )

County rankings show link between economy, health
The Pulse April 25, 2012 Andy Miller 0
A county-by-county ranking of health statistics, released earlier this month, showed a geographic divide in Georgia.
Rural South and Middle Georgia counties were clustered at the bottom of the state's health rankings, and urban/suburban at the top.
Now economic factors have been added to those figures in a new list that shows a link between a Georgia county's financial health and the health of its citizens.
It's the second year that Partner Up for Public Health, an advocacy campaign, has generated this comparison. The top 10 and the bottom 10 show that counties tend to score well or poorly on both measures.
Fayette and Oconee counties – near Atlanta and Athens, respectively — tied for first place in the Partner Up "Power Ratings" of Georgia counties, based on combined health status (from the University of Wisconsin rankings) and economic vitality. Macon County, in west central Georgia, finished last on the new list.
"If a county has healthy citizens, they'll have healthy employees, who will be more productive at their jobs,'' said Matt Caseman, executive director of the Georgia Rural Health Association, in an interview Wednesday.
"Companies are going to want to locate their businesses in a county that has better health statistics,'' with good access to physicians, hospitals and preventive care, Caseman added.
For the economic figures, the new rankings used the 2012 job tax credit rankings, which are based on poverty rates, unemployment and average per capita income. These tax credits are designed to give incentives to employers to create jobs in impoverished areas of the state. The worse off a county is, the higher the tax credit.
The Partner Up analysis, funded by Healthcare Georgia Foundation, reverses the job index rankings, showing that counties with the highest credits are the weakest economically.
Charles Hayslett of the Hayslett Group, which is managing the Partner Up campaign, said the findings are not a surprise to health officials. Political and business leaders should be aware of the linkage between health and the economy of an area, he said.
Compared with last year's rankings, Gwinnett surged from No. 14 to No. 7, while Towns County, not in the top 20 last year, jumped to No. 9 this year. Gwinnett is one of the major core counties of metro Atlanta, while Towns is a North Georgia mountain county heavily involved in tourism.
Meanwhile, rural Ben Hill, Crisp and Randolph counties dropped into the bottom 10 from higher positions last year.

Google's response is simple, but has far-reaching implications: tethering apps are back, just not for T-Mobile USA customers. What this means is that means that listed apps can be defined as carrier specific, by Google. A tethering app that violates T-Mobile's ToS will be either invisible or inaccessible to US users, while available to someone on a tethering-friendly network elsewhere. This has the effect of creating carrier-specific App Markets, and an uneven Android experience from company to company.

Break the two-party stranglehold on our country. 5% of the vote means ballot access and debate access for national third party candidates going forward.
By voting for the lesser evil (Obama or Romney), you will wind up getting evil. The Patriot Act, NDAA, endless banker bailouts and wars will continue as usual for America. Is that what you want?
Break the pattern, get out of the rut that has landed America here and make your vote truly matter for the future of our country.

I am not a pro, just farm maintenance. I dont know which type of NPT die to buy, HSS or Alloy as I dont know their intended uses. I am using a 700 pony. Thanks

Replacing Ridgid 12R Dies- Confused
Re: Replacing Ridgid 12R Dies- Confused
The difference between alloy and high speed dies is the material they are made of. High speed dies are made of high speed tool steel, while alloy dies are made of alloy steel. I recommend high speed dies in situations where a lot of continuous threading is being done, or tougher materials are being threaded. In most other cases alloy dies will suffice.
I hope this helps.

Automakers from around the world are set to launch new hybrid models at the Paris Motor Show, proving that despite the buzz around soon-to-be launched electric vehicles, hybrids still remain a hot topic.
Among the most eagerly anticipated will be the Fisker Karma, the first-factory-built model of the plug-in hybrid EV.
The four-door Karma boasts a top speed of 200 km/h and a 0-100 km/h time of 5.9 seconds, despite an annual average fuel economy of 2.4 l/100km (around 100 mpg) and emissions of 83 g/km.
It won't be the only luxury brand debuting a new hybrid at the show, however.
Lexus will be in attendance with its long-awaited CT200h hybrid, which it describes at the "world's first full hybrid luxury compact hatchback".
Nissan-owned Infiniti is also set to launch its M35h hybrid, the first in-house hybrid ever produced by Nissan, which will go on sale in 2011.
Fellow Japanese brand Honda, meanwhile, is aiming at the lower end of the market, reportedly planning to debut a hybrid version of its popular Jazz subcompact, thought to be one of the smallest and cheapest hybrids on the market.
Peugeot unveiled its contribution a month or so ago - the 3008, billed as the world's first diesel hybrid car with a fuel consumption of 3.16 l/100km.
The Paris Motor Show runs October 2-17.

The new facility will create nearly 150-200 new highly skilled roles by 2019
Singapore: AstraZeneca recently announced that it planned to invest nearly $285 million to expand its biotech drug manufacturing in Sweden. The new facility, focused on filling and packaging of protein therapeutics, will be built in Sodertalje.
The $285 million planned investment is the first phase of a potential three-part program to expand AstraZeneca's biologics manufacturing capabilities, said the company in its press realease.
AstraZenaca announced that the facility will supply medicines for clinical trial programs from the end of 2018 and will deliver finished products for commercial use once fully operational by 2019. The company further said that the new facility will create nearly 150-200 new highly skilled roles by 2019.
Mr Pascal Soriot, CEO, said, "This is a strategically important investment for AstraZeneca to support the accelerating development of biotech medicines, which now make up around half of our pipeline. We expect to bring a significantly increased number of new specialty care medicines to patients in the coming years, driven in large part by biologics. This new plant will give us greater capacity and flexibility to handle clinical trials, and will also play an important role in our future commercial production."
Sodertalje is currently home to AstraZeneca's largest global tablets and capsules manufacturing facility and is also a launch platform site for the company, with specialist capabilities on-site that allow large-scale production of new medicines

UDF Data Access Macro
I am running a DPM model with vaporizing droplets (1 vpaorizing species). I require to access the heat and mass transfer coefficient used by the solver for the vaporization law. does anyone know of the macro that we can use to access them? Alternatively, if the coefficients can't be accessed, they can be calculated with the following properties: particle reynolds number viscosity (continuous phase) specific heat capacity (continuous phase) species diffusion coefficient (in the continuous phase) particle to fluid relative velocity prandtl number schmidt number I tied looking in the UDF manual but can seem to find the macro to access these properties. Hope someone can help. It will be great if we can access the heat and mass transfer coefficients directly. Woo |

Lance Armstrong, doping and the culture of cycling
October 23, 2012
Yesterday, cycling's governing body, the UCI, announced that Lance Armstrong was stripped of his seven straight Tour de France wins from 1999-2005 and permanently banned from the professional sport. These were the recommendations of the United States Anti-Doping Agency, USADA, which released a 1000 page report filled with witness testimony and scientific data alleging that Armstrong led a massive doping program for his pro cycling team. USADA chief executive Travis Tygert said in a statement that Armstrong "ran the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program the sport has ever seen." Armstrong, who has denied the charges, announced that he wound not fight the decision and last week, he stepped down as chairman of his charity Livestrong. Today on Radio Times, a conversation about Lance Armstrong, the culture of cycling and doping in sports. We'll talk to JOE LINDSEY, a writer for Bicycling Magazine who has closely followed Armstrong's career and the problem of doping in cycling, and CHRIS COOPER, Director of the Centre for Sports and Exercise Science at the University of Essex and author of Run, Swim, Throw, Cheat: The Science Behind Drugs in Sport.

2010 Ford E-150 Review
America's workhorse van
Reviewed by Automotive on
The Ford E-series, for more than three years, has proven a profitable vehicle for the carmaker. The vehicle's success can be attributed to the fast changes occurring in the segment. This vehicle is a common fleet offering, and it has not seen many refreshments over the years. The Econoline got a few functional changes in the past three decades. The Ford E-Series is sold to consumers with a chassis cab or as a cargo panel van, as a passenger wagon or as a cutaway. Essentially, the E-Series is an offering that's ideal for many purposes and it has customizable options.The E-Series van has a few flaws however. First, in terms of its fuel-economy, the E-Series warrants improvements, regardless of the fact that all of the vehicles host 8500 plus pound gross weights, and are not confined by EPA ratings. The size of this van ranges from 216.7 to 237.7 inches so it is large, bulky, and hard to handle or park. The driving manners are cumbersome, and this vehicle is sorely in need of side curtain air bags.
The Range
Bodystyles: Van
Engines: 4.6L V-8, 5.4L V-8, 6.8L V-10
Transmissions: 5-speed automatic, 4-speed automatic
Models: E-150, E-150 XLT, E-150 Premium, E-250, E-350 XL, E-350 XL Extended Length, E-350 XLT, E-350 XLT Extended Length
Engines: 4.6L V-8, 5.4L V-8, 6.8L V-10
Transmissions: 5-speed automatic, 4-speed automatic
Models: E-150, E-150 XLT, E-150 Premium, E-250, E-350 XL, E-350 XL Extended Length, E-350 XLT, E-350 XLT Extended Length
What's New
The rarely-revised E-Series received a substantial update for 2009 that included numerous cosmetic updates to the interior and a host of comfort, convenience, and technology features. These include a navigation system, rear backup camera, rear-seat entertainment system, extra power ports, new glovebox, and Ford's exclusive Work Solutions systems. As such, the 2010 model carries over without any changes.
E-series passenger vans are available in regular or extended-length flavor. E-Series XL models come with black plastic grilles, while others get chrome. A sliding side cargo door can be had instead of the standard hinged doors.
Depending on configuration, between seven and 15 people can fit inside an E-series passenger van, with plenty of room for all. Maximum cargo space is 237.8 cubic-feet for regular-length models, 278.3 for extended-length variants.
Performance & Handling
The E-Series is available with a variety of engine options. These range from a 225 horsepower, 4.6-liter V-8 to a burly 305 horsepower, 6.8-liter V-10. Cargo and cutaway models get the option of a 6.0-liter diesel V-8 that makes 235 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque. Diesel and V-10 models can tow up to 10,000 pounds. Handling, given the vehicle's size, is an abstract concept.
The E-series comes with standard with dual front airbags and four-wheel ABS. Roll stability control is standard on passenger vans and optional on cargo vans. A rear-view camera is available, as is an integrated trailer brake.

How Convicted Felons Can Vote in North Carolina
An organization called Democracy North Carolina is serious about getting people registered to vote in this state. I recently saw one of their flyers that explains how ex-felons and other convicts can vote.
The flyer says, "Don't be locked out!" It goes on to say that if you've been convicted of a felony in North Carolina, you only temporarily lose your citizenship rights, including the right to vote. BUT you automatically get those rights back after you serve all parts of your sentence, including probation, parole and restitution. You do not need a special document saying your rights are restored. You just register and vote like any other citizen.
And for those who have been convicted of a misdemeanor, you never lose your citizenship rights. You can register and vote, even if you are still in jail.
For more information on where or how to vote, call toll free 866-522-4723.
Good information! Thanks Democracy North Carolina.

Do you know which states, if any, do not allow felons to vote AFTER they have served their time?
I am asking because of how I intend to handle this election, which I find personally confusing.
If you like, see my blog www.undertow-revolution.blogspot.com, especially the post "introduction."
I'd like to give a voice to the MOST voiceless, and people in those states would NEVER have a vote.
Its been said that a conservative acknowledges the difficulty and complexity of change. That, and the fact that my dad is a Viet Nam combat vet, is where my confusion is coming from. - 7/23/2008 12:03 PM

Hi Roots,
I don't know the voting rights of former felons in other states. I was pleasantly surprised to see Democracy North Carolina's pamphlet about the voting rights of felons in North Carolina.
If I were you I would contact the Democracy North Carolina folks and ask them what they know. I'm sure they know a lot about what goes on in the other states. Here's there contact information:

According to a download pdf file at Project Vote (link here: http://www.projectvote.org/index.php?id=190) only two states, Kentucky and Virginia, completely disenfranchise all felony offenders for life, while all other states have different restrictions and rules.
- Alicia Michele Benjamin said...
Thanks for the link. Based on the number of hists this posts gets, a LOT of people are interested in this topic. - 3/13/2009 7:40 PM

I agree, as a country with the highest number of prisoners on the planet, I think we need to take a close look at how we deny people the right to vote forever for one mistake. Do we take away any other rights, such as the right to free speech or religion? It is a travesty, piled on to the travesty of our criminal justice system. - 3/14/2009 10:26 AM
- Alicia Michele Benjamin said...
Amen! As a matter of fact, after being incarcerated, a number of people become more conscious and educated about politics, so they would make excellent voters/civic participants. - 3/16/2009 11:05 AM

Ebola, being a rare disease, it was hard to attract investments for research
Singapore: Global experts have commented that the lack of adequate funding was a major drawback that discouraged research to develop medical interventions for potentially lethal diseases like Ebola. Experts opine that Ebola being a rare disease, it was hard to attract investments to hunt for a vaccine or a cure.
Professor Peter Piot, director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, who co-discovered the Ebola virus in 1976, said that until this West African outbreak, Ebola was a very rare disease and not a public health problem.
Mr Sylvain Baize, in charge of the Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers Reference Center, France's Pasteur Institute said, "Highly sophisticated P4 labs were necessary for Ebola research due to its extreme lethality. Lack of many P4 labs and qualified personnel to handle such potent viruses too slowed the research."
Prof Piot added many pharmaceuticals are now engaged in hunting a vaccine and that FDA has fast-tracked the process of drug development, given the deteriorating conditions in West Africa.
Mr Seth Berkley, head of the GAVI Alliance, a public-private partnership designed to bring vaccines to poor countries, said that incentives must be offered to pharma companies to encourage drug discovery for such rare and lethal outbreaks.
He added,"There are many ways to handle this. You can directly finance the vaccine technology transfer, you can provide incentives to companies by funding them directly, you can create an advanced market commitment with supplemental funds to try to make it a good deal for business, you can create a long-term plan for buying the vaccines as an incentive."
Mr Berkley said that such aids will encourage many companies to develop drugs for such potent viruses, which if left unattended, may wipe out the world.

I posted in October about the possible domestic partner benefits ban, which the Michigan House and Senate have just passed. The Senate passed it secretly, without a press release, and now it goes to the Governor - for a veto, I hope. There is an exception for universities, but it does affect public institutions such as the State itself, cities, and school systems. Indeed, plenty of businesses extend benefits to domestic partners (Blue Cross-Blue Shield, Dow Chemical, Kellogg, GM, and Whirlpool, to name a few). This legislation is clearly bad policy and I hope that our readers will take the time to contact Governor Snyder's office to urge the veto of the bill.

LOOK magazine, January 26, 1954: SAFARI by Ernest Hemingway (picked it up for $2 on Bedford Ave. this afternoon - amazing).
Returning after twenty years to the scene of The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Green Hills of Africa, Ernest Hemingway is on a five months' journey through East Africa. In the first five weeks, his safari ranged 2,000 miles through the wild Masai country of southern Kenya, by truck, hunting car, jeep and on foot. With him were his wife Mary, a Cuban friend, a white hunter, a game ranger, LOOK photographer Earl Theisen and 22 native scouts and safari attendants.
The mountain (Kilimanjaro) did not show itself for three weeks. Then one morning it was there and it looked nothing like the Snows of Zanuck. There was not even much snow. But there was all we needed. -E.H.
Philip Percival is the finest man that I know. This statement covers very much ground and is not intended to offend good friends. Most of us good friends know we are not as fine as we would wish and are good friends anyway. Philip has only one defect. He is going to die as all of us will. But no man will do it better or give it less importance. He had been retired for three years and never intended to take out a safari again. He had no need to. With many forms of the true physical suffering, from sciatica which is a pain men cannot bear, down through the simpler tortures, he was always cheerful, sound, solid, efficient and exemplary. He was also more fun to be with than anyone I know from any war or peace. He loves the animals and respects and knows them as few other people ever can. And when things start to be bad he is as young as when he galloped lion fifty years ago on the lovely broken hill of Wami. - E.H.
Breakfast in the dry river bed that we cruised in the morning for game pictures and to study the Masai dry-weather wells for watering their cattle when the rains fail. -E.H.
Mary kept a diary and a newborn Grant Gazelle. When Mary found Baa he was still wet from where his mother had dropped him. He was about the size of a jack rabbit and he could not stand. She found him in the morning in high grass where the herd of Grant Gazelle had been frightened by the lions. By noon he could stand shakily and was nursing from a bottle. The same afternoon he was butting Kibo the dog if he came too close.
One time when he was tethered by a tree in Fig Tree Camp some visiting natives saw him. He distrusted and feared all people who did not smell either like Ty or Mary who fed him. They smelled respectively of good pipe tobacco and a perfume that is so expensive that I will not name it. They also smelled of soap. So Baa broke his tether and ran from the natives. They pursued him and when our Wakamba cook cursed them for frightening Baa one of the visitors started for the cook with a spear. Baa was lost in a thick country where leopards came every night after the camp meat. Everyone in the camp searched for him and when the sun was gone behind the escarpment and night came it was a sad camp and Miss Mary was crying without letting anyone see. We heard the leopard cough and the baboons speaking to him. Then the fire was burning down the trail in the firelight came Baa walking delicately and with his usual elegance to kiss Miss Mary on the chin. He had ridden it out the way Baas do in Africa. -E.H.

BA - and how cute that they called it Baa!
Leica - Seattle...a must! My grandma grew up there and loves it dearly. I never knew about the hidden city until last year! How wild. That recent Domino feature made it look so fantastic. I love their city guides.

First photos of the rear end trickled out, and now we get to see the front. As Carscoops reports, a tweet from Twitter user @Rudybenjamin13 reveals pretty unquestionably what the next-gen Aston Martin looks like. I like it. To me it looks a bit like the Aston Martin DB10 seen all-too-briefly in last year's Bond movie, Spectre—just with headlights and front end designed to meet safety requirements. Not to mention a hood that actually opens, which is important. The DB10 from Spectre, which looks better in motion than on film. And under that hood is an all-new 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 believed to crank out something like 600 horsepower. Never a bad thing, that.

Roses and thorns
A rose to officials at Mississippi University for Women and East Mississippi Community College, who announced Friday that the two schools will collaborate on a culinary arts program. In the world of higher education, competition is often the focus. There are occasions, however, when schools can complement each other rather than compete. With the acquisition of the former Columbus Country Club, EMCC now has a state-of-the-art facility that provides students with "real-world" experience. By joining forces with The W, the quality of education in the culinary arts is enhanced for students of both schools. We applaud The W and EMCC for joining forces to give their culinary arts students the finest training available. Bon appetit!
A rose to Haley Montgomery of Small Pond Graphics, Jennifer Gregory of the Greater Starkville Development Partnership, Nicole Thomas of the Starkville School District and members of Parents for Public Schools Starkville and the Starkville Foundation for Public Education for their efforts in enhancing the dialogue concerning school consolidation plans through social media. In addition to regularly tweeting at school board and consolidation meetings, the advocates also joined forces to organize a Twitter "town hall" on Nov. 6 to encourage dialogue and questions about the merger before the commission holds its public hearing the next day. The forum itself generated about 600 tweets and reached a combined 28,000 followers -- with some redundancy, of course -- from the entities' combined Twitter lists. Giving residents another means of participating in the discussion, through social media is a great idea, one that should be emulated throughout the Golden Triangle.
A thorn to the Starkville Board of Aldermen, who are proposing a resolution to prohibit the use of smartphones, curtailing social media usage and free speech, during board meetings under the guise that it is a distraction. With no credible examples of how the use of smartphones has been a distraction during previous meetings, one would think the aldermen are trying to silence those in the public who disagree with them. Since it took over in July, this board has engaged in a litany of questionable moves that have invited criticism. In trying to stifle its critics, this board shows yet again just how petty and childish they have become.
A rose to Robin Ballard, whose conversation with her soldier/son turned into a unique drive that secured more than 1,300 tubes of lip balm for soldiers stationed in Afghanistan. Ballard, an administrator with the Lowndes County School District, said her son, Kyle, complained of chapped lips caused by the inhospitable climate in Afghanistan. When told that lip balm was hard to come by there, Ballard organized a "lip balm drive" in the district. Fifty-five teachers placed donation boxes in their classroom and by Friday, the total haul was more than 1,300 tubes, along with other toiletry items. "I just didn't expect to get this much," Ballard said. "I just couldn't believe it."
A rose to Maggie Proffitt, who has become a bona fide freshman sensation for the University of Central Arkansas women's basketball team. The former Columbus High and Starkville Academy standout leads the Sugar Bears in scoring, averaging 16.3 points per game, including a 30-point explosion in UCA's 98-36 win over Central Baptist on Thursday. In that game, Proffitt made eight 3-pointers, second most in school history.

I have already post a review for the mQ. I had time to experiment with this little beast. I found some bad points (sorry !) : - Some information on the LCD screen are erased when you edit a parameter, but it's not disturbing ! - Patches levels are very low !!!! - The internal tempo is not right (134 on the mQ is 135 in the real life) - No time to experiment the vocoder, but I will do (it's not a bad point !) - Phaser is hard to program (to have good sound quickly)
Good points : - great waveforms, I didn't experiment the alt waveforms, but I'd like to have mellotron choir and I don't know if i could have it !! - FM is better than AN1x, is closer to the DX series than AN1x, nothing compared to a TX81z - Filters are OK. - didn't experiment the 5FX, I do it soon, with voice and internal sounds
To close this review, I will say : buy one, there are plenty of 80's sounds in it (alphaville, Vince Clark ,...) For your information, I've got : CS1x, A3000v2 Yamaha, JV1010 Roland (phaser is easy to program), MC307 Roland, TX81z Yamaha (great FM basses, that I will never have with the mQ), MB33 Mam (warmer than mQ for TB303 like sounds), SG01v Akai and That's all.... I'm waiting for my VIRUS indigo rack access for 1 month !!!!!!!!!
Processing other synths with the mQ's filters, envelopes, fxs and lfos is also a joy, my an1x really came to life after this treatment.
The only things I can complain about is that the knobs should be a bit more "tweakable", a bit stiff to my taste. And the phones output in the front sounds like a waterfall (just my mQ?), but that doesn't really matter when you've got 3 stereo outputs on the back.
I really recommed this one!

The great routine.

A no doubt comedy classic. Made me laugh out loud again just like all the other dozens of times I heard it.
Actually, whenever it snows I think of that routine. All the lines come to life in my head.
Thanks, Alex.
Awesome. I havent listened to this in 30 years and I can still recite large chinks of it.

St. Mark's Bookshop could be moving to a new location on E 3rd St
The financially troubled bookstore is reviewing a lease for a new space in the East Village and raising funds via Indiegogo to finance its move
Fri Mar 21 2014
Photograph: Tova Carlin
St. Mark's Bookshop may have found a new home on East 3rd Street near Avenue A. While no paperwork has been signed yet, co-owner Terry McCoy revealed that a proposed lease for the space is being looked over by a lawyer. This is great news for the local institution, which has been beleaguered by financial woes.
The beloved East Village establishment, founded in 1977, has been struggling for several years to keep up with its pricey rent at the corner of Third Ave and Stuyvesant Street. After successfully fund-raising over $24,000 in 2012, the indie bookseller was able to keep its doors open—but the relief turned out to be only temporary, with many of the retailer's shelves understocked due to unpaid bills to publishing companies.
Now, another crowdsourcing campaign is underway to finance the big move. According to its Indiegogo page, the store is asking for "support as St. Mark's transitions to its new role in the community as store, event space and literary nonprofit."
There are some pretty sweet incentives for those willing to shell out. A $25 or $50 donation gets you a gift certificate of the same amount to the store, and a $100 donation will give you a 10 percent one-year discount. For those able to be a little more philanthropic, donations of $250 and more can earn you annotated books by famous local authors. Some of the annotated work includes margin scribblings by Junot Diaz, Patti Smith and Anne Carson. As of now, only about $8,000 of the $50,000 goal has raised, and the campaign ends April 26.

Anti-Defamation League statements:
Was there an Armenian genocide during World War I?
While it was happening, no one called the slaughter of Armenian Christians by Ottoman Turks "genocide." No one could: The word wouldn't be coined for another 30 years. But those who made it their business to tell the world what the Turks were doing found other terms to describe the state-sponsored mass murder of the Armenians.
In its extensive reporting on the atrocities, The
Foreign diplomats, too, realized that they were observing genocide avant la lettre. American consular reports leaked to the Times indicated "that the Turk has undertaken a war of extermination on Armenians, especially those of the Gregorian Church, to which about 90 percent of the Armenians belong." In July, US Ambassador Henry Morgenthau cabled Washington that "race murder" was underway -- a "systematic attempt to uproot peaceful Armenian populations and . . . to bring destruction and destitution upon them." These were not random outbreaks of violence, Morgenthau stressed, but a nationwide slaughter "directed from Constantinople."
Another US diplomat, Consul Leslie Davis, described in grisly detail the "reign of terror" he saw in Harput and the corpses of "thousands and thousands" of Armenians murdered near Lake Goeljuk. The mass deportations ordered by the Turks, in which hundreds of thousands of Armenians were crammed into freight cars and shipped hundreds of miles to die in the desert or at the hands of killing squads, were far worse than a straightforward massacre, he wrote. "In a massacre many escape, but a wholesale deportation of this kind in this country means a longer and perhaps even more dreadful death for nearly everyone."
Other eyewitnesses, including American missionaries, provided stomach-clenching descriptions of the "terrible tortures" mentioned by Morgenthau. Women and girls were raped, then forced to march naked through blistering heat. Many victims were crucified on wooden crosses; as they writhed in agony, the Turks would taunt them: "Now let your Christ come and help you!" Reuters reported that "in one village, 1,000 men, women, and children are reported to have been locked in a wooden building and burned to death." In another, "several scores of men and women were tied together by chains and thrown into Lake Van."
Talaat Pasha, the Turkish interior minister who presided over the liquidation of the Armenians, made no bones about his objective. "The Government . . . has decided to destroy completely all the indicated persons" -- the Armenians -- "living in Turkey," he wrote to authorities in Aleppo. "An end must be put to their existence . . . and no regard must be paid to either age or sex, or to conscientious scruples."
Was there an Armenian genocide during World War I? The Turkish government today denies it, but the historical record, chronicled in works like Peter Balakian's powerful 2003 study, "The Burning Tigris," is overwhelming. Yet the Turks are abetted in their denial and distortion by many who know better, including the Clinton administration and both Bush administrations, and prominent ex-congressmen-turned-lobbyists, including Republican Bob Livingston and Democrats Dick Gephardt and Stephen Solarz.
Particularly deplorable has been the longtime reluctance of some leading Jewish organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League, the American Jewish Committee, and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, to call the first genocide of the 20th century by its proper name. When Andrew Tarsy, the New England director of the ADL, came out last week in support of a congressional resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide, he was promptly fired by the national organization. Shaken by the uproar that followed, the ADL finally backed down. The murder of a million Armenians at the hands of the Ottoman Turks in 1915, it acknowledged yesterday, was "indeed tantamount to genocide."
Now the other organizations should follow suit. Their unwillingness to acknowledge that the Turks committed genocide stems from the fear that doing so may worsen the plight of Turkey's beleaguered Jewish community or may endanger the crucial military and economic relationship Israel has forged with Turkey. Those are honorable concerns. But they cannot justify keeping silent about a most dishonorable assault on the truth. Genocide denial must be intolerable to everyone, but above all to those for whom "never again" is such a sacred principle. And at a time when jihadist violence from Darfur to Ground Zero has spilled so much innocent blood, dissimulation about the jihad of 1915 can only aid our enemies.
The Armenian genocide is an incontestable fact of history. Shame on anyone who refuses to say so.

The Frost Queen is a boss from the Obsidian Mod spawned using the Ice Crystal. Immediately before spawning, chunks of ice will rain from the sky, sticking to surfaces and causing damage if touched.
The Frost Queen attacks in several ways. The Frost Queen will constantly attempt to jump or walk into the player, causing melee damage. In terms of ranged damage, it fires ice-like crystals which pass through blocks. The Frost Queen also drops Eggs, which hatch into Mini Spiders. The Player has about 17 seconds to destroy it before it hatches.
The most destructive of the Frost Queen's attacks is her barrage of Ice Bombs. Before the attack, She's angry... will appear on the screen. Soon afterwards, bombs will destroy absolutely everything positioned between you and the boss. This attack appears to be some sort of anti-cheat mechanism, used when the Frost Queen is unable to move. It is advised to avoid this attack when at all possible.

A Last Chance for Italy
If the mainstream parties don't reform now, they face much worse later.
Investors' love affair with Italian debt is on the rocks and will face tougher tests ahead. Foreign money returned to Italy last autumn with the European Central Bank's pledge to buy sovereign bonds from struggling countries in the euro zone's periphery. But this new confidence hangs by a thread, as Italy's inconclusive election raises doubts as to whether it will form a credible government that could meet the terms of ECB support.

Timmy TV
this wiki
Timmy TV is the eighteenth episode of Season 5.
Timmy Turner finds out that he has been a TV star on a hidden camera reality show in Fairy World called Timmy TV. He enjoys it at first until Simon starts making big changes to the show that affect his life.
This synopsis needs improvement. |
After watching a TV show hosted by Chet Ubetcha about the famous people's lives, Timmy asks if it would be awesome if he, Cosmo, and Wanda were famous. Cosmo says that he, Timmy and Wanda are already famous. Wanda gets mad and turns Cosmo into a concrete block. Then Cosmo backs and tells "there isn't any secret to find out with a trip to the Fairy World". So Timmy wishes he was in Fairy World. Wanda, looking nervous, says it's not very polite to appear in Fairy World without warning, and Timmy says he does not mind being polite. Cosmo agrees, saying that the only times that the words "Timmy" and "polite" appear in the same sentence is when the contraction "isn't" appears in the middle. Timmy ends up wishing to go to Fairy World anyway.
Once there, Timmy is surprised that all the fairies are watching and waved to them. After a fairy says "Cosmo's gorgeous" and another says that "Wanda is more fat live" Timmy finally asked what was happening. Then he sees a sign reading "Timmy TV, weekdays at 9pm" and asks what is Timmy TV. Simon Sparklefield, in his office, responds that it's Fairy World's top television show. However, now that Timmy knows, it's has to be cancelled, because the show uses a "fly-on-the-wall" concept that would be ruined by Timmy's knowledge. However, he quickly changes his mind and starts thinking that, now that Timmy knows, he'll be able to change some things in his life to make the show more interesting.
Timmy gets happy to know that he's Fairly World #1 star, and asks since when the show has been on. Cosmo answers that it's since they cancelled "Leave it to Binky".
Timmy meets Simon at The Pointy Crown, where Simon says that wanted to make some changes on the show. Cosmo begs to not to be withdrawn from the show, because of his lots of fans, but actually, nobody at the restaurant seems to be his fan.
Timmy signs a contract without reading it, making Cosmo says that the only times that the words "Timmy" and "Read" appear in the same sentence are when the words "Doesn't" appear in the middle. While relaxing at the pool, Simon says that Timmy needs a catchphrase, "What Could Possibly Go Wrong?", an to change his hat's colour to purple. Even while Wanda disagreed, Timmy does everything that Simon says.The "Timmy TV Theme" plays and the show begins.
Timmy's Mom gets annoyed about the laughing in the background, common in many sitcoms, and about the fact that Timmy constantly repeats his catchphrase, "What Could Possibly Go Wrong?". Then she puts the boy in punishment, making Simon claim that punishment does not give audience in a reality show. He replaces Mrs. Turner for a woman named Florence Henderson, and later, Chester and A.J. for monkeys.
Mr. Turner asks Florence, thinking that she's Mrs. Turner, what she did with her hair, face and body. When Simon tries to replace Cosmo and Wanda next, however, Timmy refuses. Wanda thinks that Timmy will make a sentimental speech, revealing his love for his godparents, as he did in "The Zappys" but instead, Timmy says that if they were gone, he would miss having ice cream every time he wants.
Simon says that Timmy signed a contract, and the only one way to he to get out of that was finding a crazier person to be the main character of a new show. So Timmy founds Crocker TV, about Denzel Crocker's crazy life hunting fairies. Crocker's expression "FAIRY GOD PARENTS!" became his catchphrase. Suddenly, the fairies in Fairy World know Crocker, and they start spazzing out while saying "DENZEL CROCKER!".
Towards the end of the show, Timmy repeats for the last time his catchphrase "What Could Possibly Go Wrong?" and then Binky answers "several things" and tells that his mom is his manager. It makes Timmy remembers that his Mom was replaced, and then she appears in a screen with a lot of other children. Florence appears and says that she was in her place. The episode ends with Mrs. Turner noting that Florence is so shrill.

Both starters had no trouble. For Myrtle Beach, RHP Cody Buckel faced the minimum 18 batters through six innings while striking out nine and walking none. He gave up a lead off double to Michael Taylor but that was the only Potomac batter to reach second against Buckel.
Potomac's hurler RHP Kyle Winters was outstanding tossing six scoreless innings striking out seven batters including all three in the sixth. He didn't walk anyone and scattered three hits.
Both bullpens continued throwing up zeros on the TicketReturn.com Field scoreboard. The Pelicans Ben Rowen threw three frames without giving up a run while Rob Wort worked two scoreless for Potomac.
The Pelicans broke through in the ninth off Cameron Selik. Jared Hoying singled and advanced to second on a sac bunt. Then with two outs, a short pop up down the left field line went off the glove of a leaping Kevin Keyes. The ball was ruled fair as it was right on the line to the protest of Nationals players to give the Pelicans a 1-0 win.
The Nationals open their home schedule with the Lynchburg Hillcats tomorrow night at the Pfitz at 7:05 p.m. Join us in Woodbridge to cheer on the 2012 P-Nats by calling our ticket office at 703-590-2311.
