Money for old mobile could be put towards upgraded Nokia 6700 classic
1 July 2010 — 7:13 PM
Earning money for an old mobile phone may be one way to afford the Nokia 6700 classic, which is now available with a significant software upgrade.
The improvements create a range of additional benefits for those who own the device, including the arrival of a free navigation system to help drivers, explains the Nokia Conversations blog.
There is also an enhancement of the official Nokia map service, which could also be handy for those requiring help with their journeys.
But the upgrade to the Nokia 6700 classic is not confined to the navigation tools - with new camera software now in operation, the publication states.
The handset, which was dubbed 'the little black dress of phones' by its designer, has been fitted with more reliable Bluetooth connection points and a new menu that should make it easier to use.
Nokia is the world's largest manufacturer of mobile phones, with more than a billion sold each year.

Before I begin, let me start by saying I had Clausen rated No. 14 on my draft board. I would have had no problem with a team like the 49ers taking him in the 1st round, or someone trading back into the 1st round for him at the end of the night.
The question I have now is: if no one liked Clausen enough to take him in the 1st round, then why would they take him in the 2nd?
If you watched Notre Dame this past season, then you know that Clausen has NFL skills. He may actually be the most physically gifted quarterback in this year's draft class and he's certainly the most NFL-ready. Because of this, the only reason I can see why a team passed on him is because of concerns about his maturity level and leadership ability. If you're concerned about those red flags, when why would you take him at all?
Now I don't actually believe Clausen will far on day two, but I will question the draft philosophy of any team that takes him after passing him over in round one.
Take the Bills for example. If Buddy Nix believes that Clausen can be the face of his franchise, then why take C.J. Spiller in the 1st round? Spiller doesn't even fill a need. The same can be said for the Browns who also addressed an area that was viewed as a strength entering the draft.
If either the Bills or Browns select Clausen, I think we have to question their commitment to him. While he won't be paid nearly as much as a top-10 pick, the expectations of developing into a franchise quarterback are still there. I don't believe either team can convince me that they actually believe Clausen is franchise quarterback after they let the entire 1st-round go by without taking him in the top 10 or trading back up in an effort to land him.

Tunis — Speaker of Iraq's Parliament Oussama al-Noujaifi said, in a meeting on Monday with National Constituent Assembly (NCA) Speaker Mustapha Ben Jaafar, that Tunisia is entitled to serve as a role model in the region.
"Success of the Tunisian Revolution and the establishment of legitimate institutions, built upon the foundations of a modern State, allow Tunisia to be a role model in the whole Arab-Muslim region," said Mr. Al-Noujaifi.
NCA speaker, for his part, pointed out that Tunisia is on the process of establishing a democracy which rests on pluralism, diversity and equality. All the living forces, he added, are well aware of this important responsibility in spite of their political frictions, reads a communiqué of the NCA.

You'd rather have less music? I understand that if you have one album, you think there would be less filler. But you have no idea what 13-15 songs the band would choose, you could be even unhappier with them. This way, you have those 13-15 tracks that you think are outstanding, plus a lot of other cool music, ya know?

The point I'm getting at, is that there isn't a 'right' 13-15 songs, not everyone would be able to agree on the best 13-15 songs off of the 3 albums, so there would still be people who think the albums contained 'filler' and were unhappy with the albums. Either way you still have those 13-15 songs, and everyone else has their top 13-15 trilogy songs. So it's not like we're missing out on anything by not having our favorites together on one album, we've still got some of their best music, plus more music.

Your definition of the "right" songs aren't the same as mine. They released 37 songs to satisfy everyone, not just you.

Sorry, but I can't understand you! The trilogy is perfect, you can have more or less favorites songs but the three albums together are amazing, you have classic green day's songs, you have experimental songs and you have rock songs! Kill the DJ, Nightlife and Brutal Love isn't for anyone but are great song, you have to open your mind, the bass in Kill the DJ and Nightlife is terrific. Uno and Tre for me are my new favorites Green Day's albums with Insomoniac and Kerplunk
Posted 25 December 2012 - 11:10 PM
I've been trying to work my mind around the trilogy over the past few weeks, and I'm glad the boys chose this route. Sure, some songs don't set the world on fire for me, but would my life be any better if I had never heard those songs? Absolutely not. With Uno, Dos, and Tre, Green Day grabbed several handfuls of darts and hurtled them at the dartboard. Certain darts were closer to the target than others, but I'm ultimately thankful for the game.

It made the blood pump down under, and I think the whole thing is perfect, apart from Maybe I'll See You Tonight. Boring as hell, but it's like the break you take in sex to put on a condom before it's fuck time.

Uno wasn't a good effort, and didn't contain any real gems accept Nuclear Family and Rusty James, in my opinion.
I think Dos is the best. It has the least amount of week songs and is well put together album-wise.
Tre is all over the place. Starting out with a soft, epic song, which I don't like, and then it contains the best and worst stuff on the Trilogy. Tracks 6-9 I just skip over. overall, it just doesn't flow together very well.
Green Day should've just released one amazing album.
I would've done it like this.
1: Nuclear Family
2: 8th Ave. Serenade
3: Lazy Bones
4: Rusty James
5: Missing You
6: Makeout Party
7: Ashley
8: Fuck Time
9: Stray Heart
10: Drama Queen
11: X-Kid
12: 99 Revolutions
13: Dirty Rotten Bastards
14: Brutal Love
15: The Forgotten

Listened to all three albums in a row for the first time today and it really made me appreciate the sheer scope of this project. Seriously, we got almost 40 fucking new songs. That's crazy. I love the trilogy. As a combined 37-song album, it's my second favorite Green Day release ever, only behind American Idiot, which I don't think they'll ever top.

Hello all, this topic has been buzzing around in my head for a while now. So I guess I'll give my two cents on all of this.
For time and length sake I'm not going to go off on every song on every album on the trilogy, instead I'll just talk about the songs that really stood out for me, and the ones that weren't all that great in my opinion...which will probably still be kinda long but idk bare with me!
+Nuclear Family: A great intro into Uno and the trilogy, fast paced with a catchy chorus and a lot of attitude,
+Stay the Night: Just wonderful in my opinion, one of the best of the three albums, just the whole attitude the song has "Do you wanna share a ride and get the fuck out of this joint?" it's incredible. Everyone does a great job and the song sounds so tight. The breakdown is also just incredible
+Let Yourself Go: In your face, fuck you and the horse you rode in on, just awesome.
+Kill the Dj: I'm not gonna lie, I like the dance and groove feel this track has. I know this song has a lot of love and hate on both ends, but I just think it's awesome.
+Loss of Control: "I wanna find me a better scene where it's not the same opinion, I'd rather go to a funeral than to this high school reunion" Nuff said,
+Sweet 16: This song is a nice change of pace. A lovely ode to past loves both the ladies and gents can appreciate
+Oh Love: Another song that's either love it or hate it, when I first heard it I was mostly like "Wooh? :I" Now I enjoy it more and more. Simple guitar and chorus, but hey, catchy as hell.
+Lazy Bones: Ever since I heard the demo from Angry Birds I fell in love with this song, I don't know why, there's just something infectious about it, something amazing. Another stand out track. The lyrics, the music although simple does it right. Everything just clicks
+Ashley: I can't help but just think of the chick from "Fight Club" whenever I hear this song. I can't find the right words to describe this song, I feel like nothing I say will do it justice. But just awesome.
+Nightlife: Woah Woah let me explain. Everyone is so quick to write this song off saying it sucks and Lady Cobra ruins it and etc. Look guys, Mike Dirnt's Bass on this song is fucking incredible, it has a sick groove that you can't deny sounds great. I'd much rather listen to Lady Cobra rap than Nikki Minaj, am I right? This song just reeks of sleaze and debauchery and it really embodies well what was set up in Lady Cobra "She just wants to get me high" when I listen to this song I imagine like the dirtiest strip club with chicks that are bad news. And the guitar near the end of the track, so dark, gotta dig it.
+Brutal Love: This song reminds me of something my rents probably listened to, this track I can't always quite find the words to describe it properly. It just works though, and when Billie bellows out the word "Mind" when the music stops. Epic.
+X-Kid: Another stand out track, I can just imagine a montage of like good times shared with family and friends to this song. And the lyrics are some of the best
+Dirty Rotten Bastards: 7 Minute's of Epic. The "Yeaaaaaahs" the "Ladadada Dee" and the last repeats of "We're carried away" it's like if Jesus of Suburbia and Homecoming had a Baby.
+99 Revolutions: A catchy song that has enough political energy that takes me back to American Idiot
+The Forgotten: A nice ballad and ending to the trilogy, the end credits to it all.
Now the Meh
-Troublemaker: It didn't exactly hook me like the other tracks off of Uno, it eventually grew on me a bit, but it's one I do skip here and there.
-See You Tonight: I'd probably enjoy this a bit more if it was either A. Longer or B. Not the intro to the album claiming it was the start of the party. I felt either they should of just kicked things off with Fuck Time or had a more upbeat track leading into Fuck Time.
-Wild One: Sort of boring in my opinion. I'm not sure, I heard the little snippet of this and thought it would have been better, I finally heard the full song and just meh.
-Little Boy Named Train: Lyrics mostly, the music is great, but the lyrics take me out of the song. "Serious people are funny to me, funny people seem so serious"...okay?
-Walk Away: It starts out fine, great even! But mostly the same deal, some lyrics make me stop and go huh? "You're gonna need a parachute or a used pair of shoes and Walk Away!"...What?
Well...that was longer than I hoped. Anywho, Other songs I didn't name I enjoy, they didn't stand out per-se, but I enjoyed them. Overall I'm very happy with the trilogy. I've read it multiple times and yeah I totally agree, this is 37 songs in a few months. Who does that now a days? It's incredible! Guys this is just my opinion, I don't want to be hung for it. But!! I do encourage not debates but like conversations about songs, maybe one of my pluses is one of your minuses, vise versa. I'd love to talk and discuss with people about any song on the trilogy. Please feel free to respond to this.
Thanks Guys(:

I like the trilogy. Dos is still the best in my opinion. Tré grew on me, and I really go for this "Ra Da Da Da De".... damn, I love that line! It´s what the whole trilogy is about: fun with a meaning.
Posted 28 December 2012 - 09:32 AM
Posted 29 December 2012 - 07:32 AM
I decided to take some time to really let the albums sink in before giving my opinion on them. So, here it goes. First of all, I love this trilogy. I'm a huge fan of Warning and its melodic, good songwriting, and to me this trilogy is sort of a more upbeat, varied Warning. It's really beyond me how so many Green Day fans can be disappointed in many of the songs on this album. I can honestly say, cross my heart, that I am not disappointed in any of the songs. As a matter of fact, I expected very little from this trilogy because of the sheer number of songs to be released, but I was blown away by the quality of many of the songs. I loved Uno instantly when I heard it, I was so relieved that they decided to move away from the whole heavy, political "rock opera" thing and go back to being just fun, punk Green Day, the band that I fell in love with in primary school. Then Dos came out, and I saw how many Green Day fans reacted to it (negatively). Again, I expected very little, but I was blown away. I particularly loved the experimental Nightlife (I guess me and a lot of other Green Day fans don't have a lot in common, going by what's said on this board). Finally Tre came out, the one album that I had quite high hopes for, and it's honestly one of the best Green Day albums I've ever heard. Warning, make room for your equal. Thank you Green Day for making this fan's dreams come true by allowing us to enjoy good old Green day again to such a large extent.
Posted 03 January 2013 - 05:10 AM
Hey guys, I recorded a medley of like half of the songs on iUNO! iDOS! iTRE! I hope you guys like it!
Posted 03 January 2013 - 05:41 AM
My thoughts on the trilogy are hard to put in a text I really, really like the trilogy. Both ¡Dos! and ¡Tré! have the second and third place in my Green Day album ranking I love both.
I don't mind ¡Uno! thought, to me ¡Uno! is like ¡Tré! but not as good Also poppy, but without that spark in many songs. To me it has a few killer songs (Stay The Night, Kill the DJ (gets so much better live) and Let Yourself Go) and all the other songs, with the exception of Oh Love in my opinion, are all just 'ok' songs. When I first listened to it I was, although I couldn't believe it, disappointed and although I didn't regret buying the album I knew it was not what I was expecting or wanted. Plus, this album has many songs I don't care about all together 6 songs I don't care about in a row are too much to me. 6/10
However, ¡Dos! totally restored my faith in the trilogy with most of its songs being so fucking good I can't even choose only one to be my favorite! Fuck Time, SWTRLF, Lazy Bones, Wild One, Wow That's Loud, Lady Cobra, Nightlife, Amy... ALL GOOD SONGS!! The two songs I didn't really like as much as the others were Baby Eyes and Ashley. They are 'ok' too. I just don't feel like randomly listening to them like any other song. on ¡Dos!. I prefer even See You Tonight, which is an amazing opening! That doesn't make the album overall any worse though. 10/10
Then I got to hear ¡Tré!. ¡Tré! is as epic as Green Day were saying. All those strings, well-worked vocals, better lyrics... It also has ALL good songs! I like all of those songs. My least favorite is Brutal Love, but I can't say it's bad at all. It's just not my kind of song. The strong songs in this album for me are: Missing You, 8th Avenue Serenade, X-Kid, A Little Boy Named Train, Walk Away, Dirty Rotten Bastards and The Forgotten. I know, too many ¡Tré! is just that good. 10/10
In conclusion: I loved the trilogy and I like all three albums, but I get the impression ¡Uno! could have been better if they had used some of those songs that got cut instead of 'meh' songs like Fell For You, Loss of Control, Troublemaker, Angel Blue, Sweet 16 and maybe Rusty James too My final punctuation for the trilogy is 9/10. It could have been 10 if it wasn't for ¡Uno!.
Posted 05 January 2013 - 06:43 AM
I've been trying to work my mind around the trilogy over the past few weeks, and I'm glad the boys chose this route. Sure, some songs don't set the world on fire for me, but would my life be any better if I had never heard those songs? Absolutely not. With Uno, Dos, and Tre, Green Day grabbed several handfuls of darts and hurtled them at the dartboard. Certain darts were closer to the target than others, but I'm ultimately thankful for the game.
Great post and well put.

The My Net Wi-Fi Dual-Band N Range Extender from WD is an IEEE 802.11 n/g/b/a range extender with 3 x 3 antenna array providing extended range as well as fast data transfer speeds up to 450Mbps. The dual band functionality provides a 2.4 Ghz band for wider range and a 5 Ghz band for increased performance. With dual band functionality, you can transfer large files faster, stream HD quality content, video chat with friends, and game with ease.
The integrated WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button allows for quick and easy configuration. Press the WPS button on both your Range Extender and router to create a solid, secure connection. Once connected, the Range Extender will keep the current network name as well as any firewall and anti-virus protection.
- More Coverage
- Get the coverage you need in areas that have a weak or missing signal. Stream HD video seamlessly and game in areas previously out of reach of your current network connection.
- More Speed
- Take advantage of fast repeating Wi-Fi speeds with a 3 x 3 antenna array on both the 2.4 and 5 Ghz bands. With more antennas you benefit from a stronger more reliable signal enabling faster Internet access.
- Find the Right Spot Easily
- The Wi-Fi signal strength indicator lights on the front of the range extender make it easy to find the optimal location for your Range Extender. If the first set of lights are on, your wireless signal is strong enough for Internet use. If the middle set of lights are on, the signal is strong enough for backup and watching low resolution video. If all the lights are on, you found the optimal location to enjoy anything from downloading files, chatting, and streaming HD content.
- Selectable Dual-Bands
- Easily choose between the 2.4 and 5 Ghz bands with the flip of a switch as no software or PC is required. The 2.4 Ghz band gives you a wider range while the 5 Ghz band gives you a smaller range with faster performance. Now you can stream videos, download music or chat with friends in areas previously out of reach of your current network connection.
- Easy Setup
- No CD or software is needed. With the integrated WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button setting up the Range Extender is simple. Simultaneously press the WPS button on both your router and the Range Extender to create a secure connection in minutes.
- Network ID and Security
- Maintain your current network name after adding the range extender, making it less confusing when adding new devices. You will also have the same virus and firewall protection as your current network ensuring the network remains secure.

I came to Champlain College through the Community College of Vermont. What attracted me to the school was the class sizes. The classrooms were small enough for me to have all the attention I needed from my teachers. The facilities were top-notch and I can say that the New American scholarship from Champlain was an unbeatable offer. I majored in Public Relations.
For years, I thought of efficient ways to tell my story. During the war, I have seen how photojournalism has played an instrumental role in getting the world's attention. That's when I became aware of the power of images.
However, I have also seen the devastating impact of images when taken out of context, so I decided that if there would be someone to tell my story, it would have to be myself.
I don't exactly remember how I started taking photographs, but the first camera that I ever owned came from a raffle I won at Champlain. I'd never won anything before, but this time I did...and it was an Xbox. Instead, I asked the school to give me a gift card to Best Buy, and the next day I went and selected a camera from the store.
I started by taking photographs of my family and friends. I never stop asking questions of my friends who are photographers. My senior year, I enrolled in a class to learn the black and white negative film processing in the darkroom. Shooting film taught me to slow down while I shoot and to think hard about composition and light before I press that shutter because film is expensive. Shooting film made me a better digital photographer.
I just spent three weeks in Rwanda with a group of 20 high school students from Harwood Union High School (HUHS), teaching them multimedia and storytelling skills along with another instructor. Before that I was in India for a month traveling and working on a multimedia project.
I went to India to document the Siddi community-a community of Indians of African descent. I spent 12 days with different families traveling by motorcycle covering around 60 kilometers a day in remote areas of the Karnataka region. The Siddi were brought over by the Portuguese some 500 years ago as slaves from Africa. They now live isolated lives since the Indian government hasn't given them land, so they make a living by farming for others.
They have limited access to healthcare and the children are not being educated in English. They have been told that they are backwards intellectually, dropping out of school when English proves too difficult and they become discouraged.
I ate, played, and slept in their homes. Their hospitality was remarkable and life changing. I am grateful to them for allowing me to be part of their lives.
My goal is to raise money to put five young Siddi folks through grad school. I want to be part of this process of creating leaders for tomorrow. When they finish they will be education advocates for their own community and inspire children and parents, showing that education is important.
Going back to Rwanda was a major step. I have wanted to go back home for years but never found the strength to do so. When I returned from India, a friend called, inviting me to join him on the HUHS educational trip. This time I was ready. It was the perfect time; my bag was still packed. I was ready to face my past.
Going to India gave me strength and courage to go home. For the last eight years spent living in Vermont, I felt very African, but as soon as I landed in India I realized how American I have become. My way of thinking, reacting, and saying things had changed. Traveling to Asia took away my fear of traveling outside America for the first time.
Rwanda had also changed. I had to ask someone to take me around because I couldn't remember places. It felt unreal walking in a place where everybody spoke my language and looked familiar. The food was amazing; my body reacted to familiar sweet smells of passion fruits and bananas. I hadn't been so excited for food in a long time.
I saw my grandmother who I had not seen in 16 years. She is very old, but I was happy to hold her in my arms. I went to see her in my mother's village where I spent every summer growing up. It is a place I cherish in my memories. I also went to my dad's birthplace. The last time I was there I was around age 5. It was very emotional to see family members. I also went to many genocide memorials and cried for friends I lost during the 1994 tragedy. I can say that as hard as it was, I was able to find closure. I freed myself from irrational fears and faced the real ones. As much as I belong there, I also belong here. I have grown so much in the last two months. I feel like I have traveled to my past and back again.
The hardest part of this journey I am on is working hard to stay true to myself and to keep pushing forward, creating compelling work that is not only beautiful but also educational.

Mahmoud '15 COMMUNICATIONS MAJORHebron, Palestine
Mahmoud, an international student from Hebron, Palestine, can only be described as inspiring. In 2012, Jabari gave a TEDxTeen Talk titled Bringing Peace with More Reporting as a Global Teen Leader through the We Are Family Foundation, where he narrates his experience of growing up as an activism journalist in a city plagued with conflict.
Before coming to Champlain in January 2012, Jabari reported for World Youth News and Al-Jazeera Talk, and was elected Youth Mayor of the city of Hebron from 2005 to 2008, where he led many social initiatives as he now does as a student leader at Champlain. His peers describe him as earnest and benevolent; he seeks out countless opportunities to tell his story and advocate for social change. I heard many interesting stories while interviewing Jabari about his transition from Palestine to Champlain College.
In the summer of 2010 I attended a youth leadership retreat hosted by Miracle Corners of the World at Champlain College, which led me to apply.
Ever since I was 10 years old, I wanted to come to the United States because I was interested in politics and wanted to create more opportunities for my people. The government schools in Palestine don't prepare students for school in the U.S., so I taught myself English from the time I was in sixth grade. After the Youth Leadership Retreat at Champlain, I knew it was the starting point for a transition in my life.
For the past year, I have worked in Champlain's Emergent Media Center (EMC), which enabled me to bring the game Breakaway to my homeland in the summer of 2012. Breakaway is an online soccer game promoting teamwork and gender equality. At one of the summer camps I brought the game to, boys and girls played soccer together on the same field for the first time. The EMC has been very supportive of my interests and beneficial to my studies as a communications major.
In April I attended the Clinton Global Initiative University's annual meeting in St. Louis for a weekend after creating an action plan for poverty alleviation in Palestine.
A group of students and myself, with the help of BYOBiz director Robert Bloch, have developed Abraham Market International, an online content hub that sells handmade goods from Palestine and tells the stories of the artisans dedicating their lives to making them through journals and multimedia. This will provide an opportunity for Palestinian people to raise their standard of living and educate their children.
Based on my experience, I think youth from all cultures and nations are able to overcome political, religious, and cultural borders, and become unified based on their common dreams: to create a world in which they'd like future generations to live.
Lawuo '14ACCOUNTING MAJORGbarnga City, Liberia
I got a scholarship to come to the United States when I was 15, and I went to high school at St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont. I decided on Champlain because I like the size of the school, and I heard they have a great accounting program.
I like the community. It's not a big college, so most of the people I see are people I see all the time. I've really gotten to know them and get close to them.
I'll be doing one this summer at an investment banking company downtown called Oleet & Co. They are starting a big project involving the EB-5 program, which is basically where foreign nationals invest in U.S. businesses to secure jobs for U.S. workers in exchange for a green card. It's my first internship, and I'm really excited.
It's helpful because you learn a lot about other cultures. For example, in The Secular and the Sacred, you learn what certain people practice in their religion. You learn what is good and what is taboo, so when you come in contact with people who practice that specific religion later in life, you know what to do and what not to do, which is very important.
I am the facilitator of the Cultural Community Alliance Club. Our membership includes international students who educate everyone about their culture and a handful of U.S. students who educate us as well. This past year, we celebrated International Education Week with a speaker series and other fun events. It's a great way to make friends.
I am thousands of miles away from home, so that can be challenging. But I have a host family here, and they're my family away from home. Last summer, I was the International Student Orientation Leader, and new international students came to me with many questions like "What do I do? I'm homesick." And I could say, "Yeah, I've experienced that," and I was able to help, and that felt great.
I'm already a practical person, so when I learn something in class I like to practice it right away. That's why I'm so excited about my internship. The professors really stress the value of internships. And they stress not just reading the textbooks because you have to or so you can get an A. It's about actually studying so you can remember the information and practice it. They really emphasize that.
The people in Burlington are really friendly. If you're walking down Church Street and you see someone, they're going to smile at you and say "hello." I like that. It's a great community.

"The mountain is high
The valley is low
and you're confused on which way to go" – Free Ride, Edgar Winter Group
In the 1970's a buddy and I decided to hitchhike our way across the country. Occasionally we would catch a ride with someone whose bumper sticker declared a desire to be compensated for hauling us to the next stop. That iconic 70's bumper sticker came to mind during yesterday's VMware Cloudfoundry announcement. Brilliant demo after brilliant demo ticked off but I still had this nagging sense that, just like our trip across the USA, there is still no free lunch to be had, particularly in the cloud.
"But", you might complain, "look at all the open source software for cloud, the cloud is Free!" Indeed the last 8 months in the cloud have been unlike anything we've ever seen in the IT industry. The speed of innovation has been breathtaking and the competition particularly brutal. Starting last July with the announcement of OpenStack, a free, Open Source IaaS platform that, when delivered, will instantly crush the business of about 20 odd Cloud Stack vendors, to yesterday's VMware announcement of the next major turning point in the cloud – Cloudfoundry – a free Open Source PaaS platform that will instantly dissolve the business of the dozen or so PaaS vendors (including one of VMware's own products VMForce) the cost of cloud software has been a race to zero.
Both of these stacks are awesome and the prospect of being able to stand up either or both of these types of clouds with no software cost is just unbelievable and inspiring and downright cool. That is until you realize that you still have to manage the underlying systems of these clouds. Whether its racks of computers, storage and network gear in your own datacenter or zillions of virtual machines in a public cloud provider you will need staff and tools to keep your cloud engine running. Both IaaS and PaaS stacks do a great job of obscuring the supporting technology and, like the idiot lights in your car, can make you complacent about the humming hardware underneath the hood. So with software now free, hardware prices dropping exponentially and datacenters getting more efficient (reducing power costs), the only real costs left are the management costs. The people and the tools to help them manage the infrastructure are more critical to success than ever before and, while management has traditionally been a back burner IT component, it is often the most critical and costly part of a cloud system at any layer – SaaS, PaaS or IaaS.
We returned from our 70's journey a bit older and a lot wiser about the world. As you make your way into the cloud remember that, as alluring as it sounds, it's not free.

The world is awash is popularizations of modern physics. Here is one more. The author writes clearly and incisively about the physical ideas, but so have other good popularizers. Bais has chosen an original means of setting himself apart. Most books of this genre take it as axiomatic that they must avoid equations. Bais embraces them, building his book around the equations of physics and using them as the vehicle for describing the counter-intuitive world of relativity theory, quantum mechanics, and string theory.
This book is structured around a comprehensive collection of important equations, starting with the logistic equation and continuing through the equations of Newtonian mechanics, electricity and magnetism, the Korteweg-De Vries and Navier-Stokes equations, the Boltzmann equation, equations of special and general relativity, the Schrödinger and Dirac equations, and ending with the equations of quantum chromodynamics, the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model for electro-weak interactions, and super-string action. Quite an impressive list, especially when one considers that his audience really is the neophyte, witnessed by the need to begin this book with explanations of the concepts of function, vector, and derivative.
The equations provide useful hooks on which to hang a discussion of the big ideas of physics. Each equation (or collection of equations) gets its own page in which it is displayed in all its incomprehensible glory. In that sense, the equations serve their role as icons, mystical pointers to a meaning beyond what is visible to the uninitiated.
Bais is trying to do more than this. He would like the reader to gain an appreciation for the meaning of these equations. He does attempt an explanation of the significance of each of the symbols and operators, more diligently and successfully in the earlier equations than the latter. Ultimately, he fails. To someone with familiarity with the language of mathematics and with some of the physics, there is too little here. To the person who really is unfamiliar with such equations, too much comes too quickly. Once Bais has moved to partial differential equations and Lagrangian operators, the mathematics is treated perfunctorily and cryptically. I cannot fault him for this. Bais is trying to communicate an important physical principle in a few pages. There is neither time nor space for the mathematics.
The result is that the title of this book is something of a cheat. This is really about the physics, not the equations. The best that might be hoped for the general reader is an increased appreciation that equations play an important role in our understanding of physical universe.
Yet when all is said and done, this is a pretty book that is well-written, and I would not hesitate to give it as stocking-stuffer to a young person who is just beginning to discover the wonder of our physical universe and to appreciate the power of mathematics as the language in which we express our understanding of this universe.

I know that the technical term for pleasing a man by performing oral sex is called "fellatio." What is it called technically when you please a woman by performing oral sex?
The term for performing oral sex on a woman would be cunnilingus. It's origin is from the Latin lingere, to lick, and cunnus, vagina. Actually, cunnus means "sheath," but you can see how that might have come to mean "vagina."

In this game, clearly, neither player can move. Since it is a second-player win, it is therefore a zero game.
This game is a 2-by-1 grid. There is a convention of assigning the game a positive number when Left is winning and a negative one when Right is winning. In this case, Left has no moves, while Right can play a domino to cover the entire board, leaving nothing, which is clearly a zero game. Thus in surreal number notation, this game is {|0} = −1. This makes sense, as this grid is a 1-move advantage for Right.
This game is also {|0} = −1, because a single box is unplayable.
This grid is the first case of a choice. Right could play the left two boxes, leaving −1. The rightmost boxes leave −1 as well. He could also play the middle two boxes, leaving two single boxes. This option leaves 0+0 = 0. Thus this game can be expressed as {|0,−1}. This is −2. If this game is played in conjunction with other games, this is two free moves for Right.
is a more complicated game. If Left goes first, either move leaves a 1×2 grid, which is +1. Right, on the other hand, can move to −1. Thus the surreal number notation is {1|−1}. However, this is not a surreal number, because 1 > −1. This is a Game, but not a number. The notation for this is ±1, and it is a hot game, because each player wants to move here.
is a 2×3 grid, which is even more complex, but just like any Domineering game, it can be broken down by looking at what the various moves for Left and Right are. Left can take the left column (or equivalently, the right column), and move to ±1, but it is clearly a better idea to split the middle, leaving 2 separate games, each worth +1. Thus Left's best move is to +2. Right has four "different" moves, but they all leave the following shape in some rotation:
This game is not a hot game (also called a cold game), because each move hurts the player making it, as we can see by examining the moves. Left can move to −1, Right can move to 0 or +1. Thus this game is {−1|0,1} = {−1|0} = −½.
Our 2×3 grid, then, is {2|−½}, which can also be represented by the mean value, ¾, together with the bonus for moving (the "temperature"), 1¼, thus:
The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute held a Domineering tournament, with a $500 prize for the winner. This game was played on an 8×8 board, which proved sufficiently large to be interesting. The winner was mathematician Dan Calistrate, who defeated David Wolfe in the final. The tournament is detailed in Richard J. Nowakowski's Games of No Chance (p. 85).

Spectacular weather for a "Star-Spangled Sailabration"
Are you looking for something to do this weekend? Don't feel like fighting the traffic to get to the beach or just want something fun for you and the family to do together without traveling for hours? Well, here's your answer. Head to Baltimore's Inner Harbor and check out the "Star Spangled Sailabration."
The "Star-Spangled Sailabration" marks the start of Maryland's three year commemoration of the bicentennial of the War of 1812. The weeklong event began on June 13th and will run through the 19th. Baltimore's Inner Harbor will be home to an international parade of more than 40 tall ships and 12 naval vessels from 12 Countries. The event offers plenty to keep you entertained and busy featuring free tours of the ships, waterside festivities, an airshow featuring the famous Blue Angels and much more. To find a complete list of the scheduled events and times, parking, hotels, and more (Click Here).
The weather this weekend couldn't be more perfect for this event with daytime highs around 80 degrees if not into the low 80s with low humidity. As luck would have it the "Sailabration" will wrap up Tuesday just before the real June heat and humidity arrive.
My friend Jacob Wycoff with Weather Bug was kind enough to send me a great time-lapse from yesterday with a great view of the Inner Harbor as the ships arrive. Enjoy and have a good weekend.

THE national Tender Board, charged with the government's procurement, exempted tenders worth N$12,3 billion between 2004 and 2007, exceeding the amount for tenders awarded through the normal procurement process.
Revelations of the N$12,333 857 600 spent in four years comes a few weeks after The Namibian reported that there is a trend emerging at various ministries where they request exemptions under the guise of urgency or security concerns or to empower small and medium businesses, while the real reason is to benefit companies owned by people close to officials involved in the procurement process.
The 2004 Tender Board annual report shows that the board awarded tenders worth N$548 million and exempted tenders worth N$1 billion.
The spree continued the following year, when N$6,2 billion was exempted from public procurement while N$619 million went through the normal procedures.
In 2006, N$1,6 billion worth of tenders were given to selected bidders while N$868 million went the formal way of procurement. In that year, 638 tenders were advertised - 191 annual and 447 formal tenders.
According to the report, a total of N$3,5 billion worth of tenders were exempted from the normal process the next year, while the public got the chance to apply for work to tenders worth only N$624 million.
Current Trade and Industry Minister Calle Schlettwein, who was the chairman of Tender Board at the time, admitted in the report that exemptions in 2007/2008 financial year saw an overall increase of 112,2% compared to the previous year.
"This increase in exemption approval could be attributed to factors such as urgent construction of and extensions to classrooms due to the exceptionally high demand for classrooms in the Khomas and northern regions for the ever-increasing number of learners," Schlettwein said in the report.
The same document, which is the latest Tender Board annual report to be made public, shows that 2007 saw N$1,58 billion worth of tenders exempted for construction work, N$30 million for consultancy work and N$3,2 million for vehicles.
The handpicked companies that benefited from the exemptions are not listed in the reports.
The Tender Bulletin this week reported that exempting N$12 billion from 2004 to 2007 means that the government procured six times more goods and services without an open tender process than with.
"Value of tenders exempted exceeded that of tenders administered through the national tender board in each of the years," it reported.
The Bulletin also reported that it had picked up a trend of an increase in Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) companies.
"This raises the question whether this is coincidental, or whether there is a connection to the high rate of tender exemptions during the same period."
The chairperson of the Tender Board, Ministry of Finance Permanent Secretary Ericah Shafudah, declined to comment on the above statistics, saying she was not the chairperson at that time.
For the last five years, no Tender Board annual reports have been made public.
Shafudah, who became chairperson of the board in 2010, said the nation can expect another annual report next month, blaming the absence of annual reports on a lack of manpower at the secretariat.
Finance Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila could not comment on the figures yesterday as she was not at the office.
Kuugongelwa-Amadhila tabled three old annual reports of the Tender Board for the 2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08 financial years in 2010.
The past three years have been crucial for the Finance Ministry, especially relating to tenders given through the Targeted Intervention Programme for Employment and Economic Growth (Tipeeg) which came into force in 2011.
According to Tender Board rules, single or restricted tender procedures may only be used in circumstances when open competitive tendering would not be an effective means of obtaining the requisite supplies or services - for instance, "where there is extreme urgency brought about by unforeseeable events and where the delay that would arise as a result of open tendering would seriously harm the public or security interests".
Over the years the Ministry of Finance has promised to reform the government tendering process, but it is not yet known when the tightened regulations will come into effect in order to discourage corruption and waste.

Usability Design for Online Web Forms
Designers aren't just creating pleasing graphics for the Internet anymore. As a web designer you need to consider other properties of user interaction and coding. UX design is possibly the most important topic to cover, and this is especially true designing web forms. All webmasters should understand this message.
Your goal is to offer the simplest path for your users to move from filling out input forms to hitting the submit button. There isn't a lot of special effects required, although jQuery form plugins have always been a popular topic. In this article I'd like to focus on the user interaction and how each visitor is experiencing your forms. There are techniques you can use to streamline the process which converts to less frustration in your audience.
Keep a Small Focus
I've heard dozens of users complaining about signup forms which require too much info. If you're looking to increase user registrations then you want the form to be as simple to complete as possible. The same goes for newsletter signups and other similar types of input data.
The minimum number of fields will vary depending on your objectives. Registration forms may ask for a username, e-mail address, and 2 password fields. This is certainly reasonable and users looking to signup will be expecting about this length. But consider other signup forms such as the default WordPress style.
Here your visitors are only required a single username and e-mail address. The system then generates a password and sends an e-mail to the given address. This works to reduce original form size and keep spammers at bay. You don't need to verify your e-mail through a link, but you do need access to your inbox to acquire your new login password!
Perform Actions as Expected
The one thing most users hate is unexpected page activity. You will absolutely want to keep your form behaving in a natural manner, and reduce any JavaScript extras to a minimum – popup guides and Ajax validation are key components. Usable forms shouldn't be split into multiple columns and spanned across the page. This is just one example of poor technique.
Another mistake I run into often is misuse of the tabindex HTML property. This attribute is wonderful from a usability standpoint since your visitors can fill out forms even without a mouse. But if you have these numbered out of order, or only fill out a few input fields then the whole system is thrown off. This is certainly true with signup forms but even more-so with other types of input – especially online shopping carts.
Security is Priority #1
Whether you're dealing with customer credit card numbers or simple e-mail addresses you should always put website security first. Visitors are trusting your website and backend code to process each form properly and store user data in a secure database.
If possible I recommend using an SSL certificate on your entire domain. This way users won't just be protected during signup, but their entire viewing session will be protected via https. It can be a bit of work, but some web hosts like Fat Cow will actually aide you in the setup process. It's certainly not a requirement for every site but it doesn't hurt to go that extra mile for security. Your users will feel much safer, and it builds a level of trust going forward.
Additionally don't fall for some of the more obvious ploys to detect data. Always use a POST data type in your forms unless the information isn't exactly "private". GET requests should only be used if the URL structure can benefit from the data(ex. search pages like search.php?q=my+search+terms).
Both of these methods will pass backend data in a similar fashion. But GET data is processed openly in the URL and is susceptible to hijacking. POST data is much more secure, especially behind an HTTPS connection. This fantastic guide by Think Vitamin explains the differences in an easy-to-digest format.
Large, Spacious Inputs
I have listened to a lot of arguments surrounding the sizes of web forms. Standard CMS brands including vBulletin, Joomla!, and Drupal use fairly smaller text sizes for input fields. These are generally default 10px-12px fonts with very little padding.
The signup form on Diigo has a very spacious layout! You need to alleviate room between the many different input elements. Also bold text lets you know which fields have been entered and which are still untouched. As you highlight each field the form responds with a faint blue tint – just a marker to let you know where your cursor stands.
The classic Digg registration form was designed and built in a very similar way. Twitter's registration form is also oversized so you can't miss a beat. They are not afraid to use extra white space which gives prominence to the input fields. Their system of labels is also very unique by setting placeholder text when the field is empty. By dropping the color to a light grey you can easily distinguish between user-added text and the field presets.
There are a whole library of new trends emerging in web design. The newer CSS3 specs are still growing in popularity and we can see these properties in various layouts. Web forms are no different and deserve just as much attention from designers.
I hope these guiding principles behind user experience can invigorate you towards building better web forms. The process of handling backend data can be tricky even with simpler languages like PHP. But with just 1-2 weeks of practice you can likely figure out a system that works for you. Web developers both frontend and backend would do well to learn and understand these paradigms. If you'd like to share ideas on building accessible web forms please let us know your thoughts in the post discussion area.

Very useful, thanks. Always remember the old adage: "Keep it simple, stupid" – especially true for forms.

Great article Jake. There is always so much to say about forms! I did cover web form usability last month in my blog too: http://usabilitygeek.com/an-extensive-guide-to-web-form-usability/
Keep up the good work!

Thanks for this useful article… waiting for more
jimJanuary 12, 2012
All great points and in my opinion Usability Testing of forms (among other things) is critical. I use a live User Testing Service (such as http://www.usertesting.com) to see what real website users really think while they use my websites. I am always amazed at what I learn.

Also make sure the forms are jquery enabled to recognized an incorrect field with a design that is clear and easy to fix.

Great to see a focus on web forms, especially an article that talks about things that really matter to users such as asking the minimum number of questions, being really careful about security, and avoiding silly tricks.
Well done.

more essential for all kinds of online web Form Designers.

Well written, I agree with jake that keeping the form simple to fill is paramount. No one likes to waste unnecessary time keying in fields of rubbish.
Cristian BalauJanuary 16, 2012
I agree on the simplicity if you want people to register and stay around. Especially if the website is new and unpopular you need to keep as many users as you can, do not drive them away with complicated register forms.
KatieJanuary 19, 2012
Validation is huge when it comes to forms. If certain elements are required and there is a user error, the error should post relative to the field and be obvious. It's happened so many times where I actually have to search the page for what I did incorrectly on a form. Thanks for the article.

Well said about taxindexes, once we used to value them a lot in the 1990's Windows development. They're still important for sites and web apps that require filling long forms.
One thing of debate is the length of drop down lists. Some preach that they should be same as the previous textbox, while Facebook's sign up page seems to have them of varying length.
Also use radio rather than combos when you have 3 options or less to choose from.

Great article Jake.
Really interesting reading, really liked seeing the different techniques that can be applied to user focused designs.
Very useful indeed.

Yesterday we took a look at the five best opponents Wladimir Klitschko has faced and today we will do the same with Mr. David Haye.
He was the undisputed cruiserweight champion of the world and that is where he fought the best. There will be more cruiserweights on this list then heavyweights, but overall his oppponents are lacking.
He hasn't faced anyone that great at heavyweight despite winning a title and this Saturday he will face his first real test at heavyweight.

After returning from Vietnam and being stationed at Ft. Hood, I was out boring holes in the sky when a buddy of mine flying an OH-58 ran into a bit of a problem. He was flying back to Hood AAF when lost hydraulics:
1005: Hood Tower, Army 1005. We have hydraulics failure, request straight in to the runway.
HT: 1005 Hood. Are you declaring an emergency at this time.
1005: Negative Hood, just the straight in.

1005: That's affirmative Hood.
UKN A/C: 1005, you shit's flaky

He set it down without problem. There was an IP in the back seat but a grunt in the front.

Originally written on Madtown Badgers | Last updated 12/19/12
By the numbers the Wisconsin Badgers have come a long, LONG way since the early 1990's and that's highlighted by the fact that they were named to the Forbes College Football's Most Valuable Teams list. Where did the Badgers rank? A not too shabby 14th to be exact. Forbes estimates that the University of Wisconsin football team is worth $76 million this year, a change of + 13% over this time last year. Part of that has to be the fact that Wisconsin has now won three straight Big Ten championships and because of the hype brought on by the impressive offensive output by Russell Wilson and Montee Ball. According to the Forbes article the Badgers earned about a $24 million profit in football alone over the past year and they will garner a $24 million payday for the Big Ten with their appearance in the Rose Bowl this year. The Badgers weren't the only Big Ten team to come up on the list, but they were ranked ahead of a team's who's value may surprise you - Ohio State, who cam...

A DRAB PARKING GARAGE across the street from a McDonald's is an odd place to contemplate the potential of human ingenuity. But on a rainy spring day, George Beard unplugs a power cord connecting a white Toyota RAV4 to the wall, throws the SUV into reverse, and, in total eerie silence, we back into the possible future of transportation—and potentially Oregon's economy—taking care not to hit any concrete pillars.
The 59-year-old former Oracle executive has become the electric-vehicle guru at Portland State University, which maintains a mini fleet of four electric-powered RAV4s. At eight years old, Beard's RAV is not particularly futuristic, but this all-battery ride exists, basically, to convince people not to be scared of cars powered by the local grid rather than Saudi sheiks or disaster-prone Gulf oil rigs.
"Our primary objective with these vehicles is to give people firsthand experience," Beard says. "And they invariably discover that, hey, it ain't no big thing."
For now. Beard, PSU, the city, the state, regional businesses, and fans of polar icecaps hope EVs, as they're called, become a very big thing indeed. The long-range EV dream is a carbon-free renewable grid to plug into every night (albeit, the grid Beard's plugging into is supported in part by the coal-incinerating Boardman power plant) and a national infrastructure with recharging stations every 100 miles or so. No small task.
Whether EVs turn out to be the new paradigm or the new Betamax, Portland and Oregon are at the vanguard. This spring, Oregon became one of five states involved in a $98 million stimulus-funded project to install hundreds of EV charging stations in the state and monitor users' driving habits. Not coincidentally, Portland is among the launch markets for both Nissan's cute new all-electric Leaf and Toyota's plug-in version of the iconic Prius hybrid. And Portland State will essentially act as the global carmakers' local research arm, assessing the performance of the new products.

A U.S. District Court jury in Baltimore returned guilty verdicts yesterday against all nine men accused of murder, kidnapping and drug charges for their participation in the alleged Anthony Jones drug ring, which prosecutors say was one of the city's most violent drug gangs.
Eight of the nine could be sentenced to life in prison without parole for conspiracy to distribute narcotics. Some also face prison time for other, related convictions.

Getting to the Point
When the fireweed was in mid-bloom I made a trek out to Yakutania Point with my fishing rig and a box of lures. The air was warm and the wind still, under a blanket of smoke from fires raging many miles north in the Yukon. Small puffs of whirling dust spun away from each footfall under the canopy of branches and leaves along the trail.
I could feel the muscles in my eyelids flex when I emerged from the shadow of the woods. The smoke-filtered light dulled the shadows and turned the sun into a blood red disk, motionless and small in the broad, whitened sky. A seagull cried from the edge of the granite jetty that was scarred and smoothed by glacial force. This is The Point, and it's a nice place to fish.
There was a time I used to fish here often. Many years ago, when a tank full of gas for driving to trout holes in the Yukon was not in the budget. The Point was the perfect place for casting into the silt laden lime green water with a buddy, always hoping for a nice salmon. Usually we were lucky to catch a Dolly or two.
By evening a crowd would gather. A fire would be lit. Any and all fish would be wrapped in aluminum foil with onions and potatoes, and set into the fire. There was music, laughter, and full bellies. Intrepid youth on no particular mission other than what the moment offered.
There was one night in September, thirteen years ago, when eight of us sat on that same rock outcropping staring up into the darkening sky. Behind breaks in the clouds was an eerie green glow. Someone said the northern lights would probably be visible if the clouds happened to clear. Moments later they did.
The green glow quickly gave way to fiery tendrils that filled the sky. Beams of light shot down upon us and undulated in rhythmic waves of color.
No one made a sound. It seemed as though you could reach out and touch those curtains of light. Orange, yellow, and red pulses shone from the faces of my friends, eyes heavenward, smiling.
There were some good days fishing The Point. There was an occasional bright king to test your skill. All the while fighting it you hoped a boater cruised by who could offer a net. On other occasions the Dollies were in good numbers. Catching, not fishing. Ultimately it didn't matter either way.
Then as years passed there were other places to fish, different places to go, and adequate gas money. Those friends all moved away, and different seasons saw different faces. A fire ban was put into effect at The Point, and the fire pit was filled in. It still sits there like a scar of memory - a testament to the fact that all is change and even the best of things are destined to end.
Fishing is still allowed, however, and it was the motivating factor for stretching the legs and taking advantage of this summer's well deserved heat.
To the chagrin of the seagull, I worked my out to the very end and sat upon a curved space on the smooth granite: The perfect natural fishing chair. The tide was high and the water almost completely still. I cast for an hour, changing the lure a few times to see if it would prompt a bite. I was slowly becoming mesmerized watching the helicopters across the Skagway River takeoff and land. I could feel a bead of sweat on my back reach critical mass and start its slow decent down my spine.
Then came the hit.
Optimistic I had a big king on the other end of the line I set the hook a few times to make sure it was solid. Line started coming off the drag in short bursts so I knew it wasn't a Dolly, but it was also too small to be a king.
I fought the fish for a few minutes. It was a good fighter and stayed deep. When it got close I could see the bright scales shimmering under the surface. I thought it was a shaker king, but when the fight went out of it and it came to the surface on its side I could see it was a six-pound ocean-bright pink.
While many disagree, a bright pink salmon is fine table fare. Smoked or cooked. The meat is light red and when it's prepared it has the same color and consistency as a king. I like them better. The filets are smaller and easier to deal with. I have served pinks to some unknowing Alaskan salmon snobs, and they have always praised the fine quality of the king or coho they thought they were eating. However, this does not mean you will have the same culinary experience by heading over to Pullen Pond in August and filling your cooler.
I bring a small swing gaff with me now when I head out to the rocky shores to fish, just in case there are no passing boaters with nets. Unfortunately, I had practiced using my gaff on gravel and this had a marked effect on the sharpness of the point. This necessitated pulling the fish out of the water by sliding the gaff under the gill and lifting him out.
All was going well until the fish flipped up sideways and cleared the point of the gaff. The weight of the fish falling back into the water caused my line to snap. The fish hung there in the water motionless for a moment, with the lure still in its mouth. I tried to get the gaff back around the gill, but the dull point missed him entirely and he swam away with a flash, along with my $5.00 lure.
A couple of years ago, tourists began asking me the whereabouts of "Seal Rock." For weeks I repeatedly got the question and always gave the same answer, "I have no idea." It turns out that a popular travel magazine published an article about a certain Skagway location where a short hike through the woods leads to a rocky jetty. The article said you could hike there for "Your own private seal show." I eventually got to read the article and learned that "Seal Rock" was none other than Yakutania Point.
Who knows, maybe even the name of The Point will change over time, just like everything else. In the meantime, it's a pretty good place to fish, hang out, or even take a nap. Just beware of all the seals.

I'm trying to figure out how to translate the idiomatic expression "Bless his (little) heart" into German. The general sense is: "He meant well, but, wow, was that ever dumb!" I don't think the literal translation segne sein Herz will work here.
Take the 2-minute tour ×
German Language Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for speakers of German wanting to discuss the finer points of the language and translation. It's 100% free, no registration required.
I would translate it as:
He meant well (but).
to quote the other response:
or passive:
It was meant well (but).
I'd never use 'Gott' in that expression. God no. :-)
It will depend; as a parenthesis of sorts "Gott segne ihn" should work. If you want a full sentence, I'd suggest "es war ja gut gemeint, aber ... " oder "er hat es ja gut gemeint".
Do you have a fuller example?
How about ending it with "..., der Arme" or something along those lines?
