Why I Don't Think There Is A "Playstation" Phone
A very convincing photo of a Sony Ericson gaming phone has surfaced this week with site after site calling it confirmation of a "Playstation Phone."
I have doubts, though.
The Playstation brand has had several leaks over the past couple of years, namely the PS3 Slim and PSP Go, but even on photos of leaked prototypes there have been some form of Playstation logo. This Sony phone does not; instead it has an "S" logo.
The menu button below the D-Pad is different than that of the Playstation brand's logo button that brings up the Xross Media Bar - a symbol that's unified across the PS3 and PSP Go systems (The PSP-3000 has a "Home" button, but the logo is still present on the system's case).
Sure, these things could have been done for prototype use only in a weak effort to throw off anyone who discovered it, but like I said: the other leaked prototypes have had a PS logo.
Of course, there is still the question of why there would be Playstation face buttons and the PSP's L and R shoulder buttons included. Easy: the phone is still by Sony, and Sony owns the Playstation brand. They can legally utilize parts of the Playstation system in any piece of hardware they create, can't they?
Of course, there is also the Playstation controller logo in the screenshots of the menu. I don't really have a defense for that, except that the controller image is associated with Sony's gaming enterprise.
My thought is that this is obviously a Sony gaming phone, but with stronger and stronger rumors of developers having a PSP2 it wouldn't make sense for Sony to develop a PSP successor AND a phone at the same time.
I see this with two possibilites: 1) This gaming phone will indeed have its own gaming marketplace but will not carry the Playstation brand, or 2) I'm completely wrong and it is actually a Playstation phone alternative to the PSP Go (since the design is nearly identical), and it will play everything the Go can as well as make calls and use Android apps. On top of that, it would have exclusive games, since it has that mini-trackpad in the center of the control pad (perfect for flinging some Angry Birds, perhaps?).
Here are the four of the best ipad keyboard case that I've tried, along with pros and cons for each. Every one of these keyboard case combos ...

On Sunday night, Daniel Alfredsson will make his much-anticipated return to Ottawa for the first time since suddenly bolting town as a free agent.
The organization seems to be extending a small olive branch towards their former captain, as owner Eugene Melnyk confirmed to TSN 1200 this week that the Sens will have a video tribute for Alfredsson. The highlight reel will run just after the anthems are played and before the opening face-off, ensuring that the atmosphere inside Canadian Tire Centre will be electric.
If Twitter, phone calls and e-mails to our radio station are any indication, there could be a mixed reaction for Alfredsson on Sunday. My gut feeling is that about 90 per cent of the crowd will applaud Alfredsson after the video tribute with a majority of people giving him a standing ovation.
There will undoubtedly be a small murmuring of boos in the crowd, as some people felt Alfredsson betrayed the organization and city with his decision to sign with the Red Wings.
In any event, Sunday does have the potential to be a polarizing moment for Alfredsson in Ottawa. But that's nothing new for the ex-captain, who is certainly used to being a lightning rod for criticism in this town. Here's a look at the five most polarizing and controversial moments of Daniel Alfredsson's career with the Senators.
5. Shooting puck at Niedermayer
In the dying moments of the second period in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final, Alfredsson appeared to shoot the puck directly at Ducks defenceman Scott Niedermayer. In subsequent interviews, Alfredsson insisted that the puck was rolling around on his stick and he never intended to shoot the puck directly at the future Hall of Famer.
But Niedermayer's take on the situation was quite different as he certainly hinted that Alfredsson's actions were intentional during his post-game interviews.
"I wasn't happy. There's no need to get hit with a puck at that point. But I'm not going to say more than that," Niedermayer said at the time.
Ducks head coach Randy Carlyle was even more blunt and accusatory in his post-game press conference.
"I thought it was blatant shooting the puck at our player at the end of the period," Carlyle said. "You could tell he directed it toward him because he changed the shooting angle halfway through his wind-up. People have long memories."
The Senators were down 2-1 in the series and many people suggested that Alfredsson was trying to do something to spark his team. But the Senators had just tied up the game 2-2 when Dany Heatley scored at the 18:00-minute mark of the period, so why would Alfredsson feel the need to jumpstart his team? Whatever the case, the Ducks ended up breaking the tie with a third-period goal by Dustin Penner to take a 3-1 stranglehold on the series.
4. The fake stick toss tribute to Sundin
This was one of the funniest and wittiest things any player has ever done in the middle of an NHL game – at least that's the opinion of people who lived in Ottawa. As for those who reside in Toronto, they viewed this as a classless gesture by the Ottawa captain.
Just a few days after Mats Sundin was suspended by the NHL for carelessly throwing his broken stick shaft into the crowd, Alfredsson found himself in a similar situation at centre ice at the Air Canada Centre. The Sens captain had broken his stick and, as a joke, he decided to do a mock stick toss into the crowd – emulating the Sundin incident.
Whether you think it was funny or not, you do have to give Alfredsson credit for thing: Having the wherewithal to even think about pulling that stunt in the middle of an NHL game is pretty impressive.
3. The "probably not" comment
After a 7-3 loss on home ice to the Penguins in Game 4 of the 2013 playoffs, Alfredsson was asked if his team could come back and beat Pittsburgh given the way the series was going. His answer of "probably not" generated a media firestorm, as many viewed the comment as defeatist and a sign the Sens captain was surrendering.
Others felt Alfredsson was just being brutally honest and possibly trying to deflect some of the pressure away from his team. In the end, Alfredsson had to change his answer to "definitely not," after the Sens ended up losing Game 5 by a lopsided margin of 6-2.
2. The Pominville OT goal
In the spring of 2006, the Senators bowed out rather meekly to the Buffalo Sabres in the second round of the playoffs. The Sens had been the Eastern Conference's top seed during the regular season, but ended up being eliminated in five games by Buffalo.
The crushing blow came in the overtime period of Game 5, when Jason Pominville blew past Alfredsson – who was manning the point on the power play – and scored a shorthanded goal to win the series. While some fault could have been laid on Wade Redden and Ray Emery on that play, Alfredsson took the lion's share of the blame.
In the months that followed, a significant portion of the Sens fan base wanted Alfredsson traded – insisting that the Pominville incident was tangible proof that they could not win with the captain. By the fall of 2006, the cries to trade Alfredsson had become so loud that rumors were swirling about a potential deal with the Los Angeles Kings.
Ironically enough, one year after the Pominville goal, Alfredsson would be the one to score a series-clinching goal in Game 5 against the Sabres, sending the Sens to the Cup Final for the first time in modern history.
1. The hit on Darcy Tucker
With the score tied 2-2 and time running out in Game 5 of the 2002 playoff series between the Sens and Maple Leafs, Alfredsson delivered a controversial hit on Darcy Tucker. To add salt to the wound, while Tucker was writhing on the ice in pain, Alfredsson went to the front of the net and scored the eventual game-winning goal past Curtis Joseph. The Leafs bench was irate that no penalty was called on the play and the crowd at the Air Canada Centre chanted obscenities towards the officials.
The hit on Tucker made Alfredsson public enemy No. 1 in Toronto and was the catalyst for why he started getting booed every time he touched the puck in a game involving the Leafs and Senators.
Will the hit on Darcy Tucker make Alfredsson's video montage on Sunday at Canadian Tire Centre? If it does, you can bet that portion of the video will receive a loud ovation from the Ottawa crowd.

The mission of the Children's Vision Foundation is to identify children who have potential visual barriers to learning, to encourage families and schools to seek professional eye care for identified children, and to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of vision problems.
To conduct screenings that includes an in-depth assessment of children's visual abilities.
To provide families and school staff with information that will facilitate appropriate vision care referrals.
To educate communities about learning related vision problems.
To enhance the opportunity for children to learn and succeed.
Studies show that fully 85 percent of the average child's learning is done visually. Yet almost 25 percent of school-age children have vision problems that can affect their ability to learn. There is a direct connection between undetected vision problems and a child's success in school. In fact, at least 70 percent of juvenile delinquents have vision problems. The correlation is clear: Good vision is integral to a child's academic success.
While many children pass their school's standard vision screening, standard screening is designed to check only for distance vision. These screenings DO NOT check to see if a child can coordinate both eyes as a team, track print consistently across a written page, sustain eye focus across a written page, or adjust focus when looking from near to farall necessary components of effective learning.
The Children's Vision Foundation (CVF) is a non-profit organization that specializes in identifying and helping children with these types of vision problems. CVF screens 3–5,000 students annually in public and private schools in communities across Oregon. Our goal is to advocate for students to ensure a lifetime of successful learning through optimum visual function.

Enhanced security procedures at Hale Center Independent School District have some parents outraged and claim they are an infringement of their rights.
Hale Center ISD Superintendent, Carl Krug joined the district last June and was notified by a board member that the entrance could leave students and faculty vulnerable to an intruder.
Parents are no longer allowed to walk their children to class. Instead, parents must enter through the new entrance, which is next to the secretary's office. They are allowed to eat breakfast with their children in the cafeteria. Students are escorted to class by faculty members either from the new entrance or the cafeteria. These new security measures have Paula McGee, the mother of a kindergartner who attends Aikin Elementary, ready to move out of the district.
"I think they're trying to make it a fortress and you can't do that," said McGee. "You can't keep the boogey man out and the parents."
These controversial security plans were in the works even before the Newtown Connecticut shooting occurred.
"What happened in Connecticut just sped up the process for us," said Krug.
Other districts are considering less drastic security measures.
Rise Academy is a charter school in Lubbock. There is open discussion among board members to possibly hire armed officers on campus.
The school had to deal with a frightening hostage situation on campus back in 2011, which ultimately changed the way Superintendent Richard Baumgartner protects his staff and students. "A deranged individual took 4 hostages in our office building at knife point and fortunately, that situation resolved itself without injury, but it could have been a lethal situation," said Baumgartner.
Supported by Texas Penal Code 4603 Section (a), Baumgartner and the School Board decided that Baumgartner would be the only staff member to carry a firearm on campus.
Hale City ISD has not has not hired any armed officers. However, Terry Timms is a parent of a 3rd grader at Aiken Elementary and is also the Hale County Constable. He patrols the school armed every morning.McGee said the Constable's temporary presence is not enough and the answer does not lie in prohibiting parents from walking their children to class.
"I know they're trying," said McGee, "but when you have 4 and 5 year olds you should still be allowed to walk them to your class to make sure they get there safely, to see their artwork that they put in the hallway, to see the things they make and to talk to their teachers every day."
These new safety measures are enough for McGee to actually move out of the district.
Her child will attend school at Lubbock Cooper ISD, where each campus has an armed officer.
Krug said he is currently under discussion with the School Board regarding the possibility of the addition of armed officers on campus.

Kitchen Spotlight: Scott's Vintage Industrial Pantry
We love the combination of dark gray, white, and bright colors in the kitchen. So this tiny pantry from a recent house tour at Apartment Therapy really jumped out at us. Take look at Scott's little pantry, with plenty of interesting vintage details.
• 1 A peek into Scott's pantry, part of his restored apartment in a historic building in Washington D.C.
• 2 We love the combo of dark walls, white cabinets, and bright artwork.
• 3 Vintage lighting, and an old letter "S" from a restaurant sign.
• 4 A greyhound!
• 5 A vintage servant's call button in the kitchen! Not much use to us servantless cooks...

Love it!
Anyone know where to get the shelving unit housing the books? I have very bad allergies, so I am always on the lookout for shelves that keep dust out.
I love these small apartments you feature here and how they are able to do so much in such a little space. The kitchens are ideal for me and I enjoy seeing where they can fit things like a frozen drink machine on their counter tops.

We were really blown away by the food, wine, service and atmosphere of the place (aside from the group of six behind us who brought their toddler). Although the decor is somewhat rustic like an old printing factory, the food is very refined, yet sourced locally, and the wine list is like an old telephone book. This place is a gem.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 9/20/2014Have not dined here for a few years. Why, I don't know. The artistry of the appetizer and dessert out shadowed the entree but still a fine experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OverpricedOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/20/2014The food was decent enough -- although the fois gras was disappointing -- but just not worth the price.Special Features:
- Service Should Have Been More "On"ziniDined on 9/19/2014Our service at the beginning of our meal was very good and then we fell off the face of earth. Had to wait and wait for check, which really irks me because at the end of a meal you want to be able to make a decently quick exit. Instead we sat, got tired, felt ignored while the server saw to everyone around us and whipped by. Not cool after dropping $200 for two of us and it was our anniversary to boot (which they knew). Also, avoid the chicken special, super dry, over fried and just a little odd. disappointing and it was a server-recommended dish.Special Features:
- Lives up to it's ratingsMaidmarrynDined on 9/18/2014Presentation was great, food for the most part was exceptional. Out of the four of us who dined together, three were different entrees and all were superb; from the chicken and smoked trout to the smoked tea leaf duck, we were all extremely happy with the both the flavor of the food and how it was plated. Mixed crowd which was actually quite nice to see. Atmosphere is dark but pleasant and noise level very conducive to dining. Would definitely go back again!Special Features:
- OutstandingStevePDined on 9/16/2014I took my wife and daughter to Sepia for lunch. The food and service were absolutely outstanding. The meals came to the table hot and were made to perfection. Wonderful atmosphere and an A+ meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect Mealaustinknight01Dined on 9/14/2014The place was empty on a Sunday evening, but that just meant we could linger longer over our wonderful meal and chat with the knowledgeable server while sampling wine. The fresh seasonal fruit and the tea-smoked duck were definite stand outs. Service was friendly and attentive but still allowed us to have a long conversation with minimal interruptions. I would definitely recommend!Special Features:

- Great food, Great service.irish1Dined on 9/12/2014I took a client to a Friday lunch. Our meals were unique but tasty. Mayor Emanuel arrived just before us. This is a trendy, fun restaurant. I highly recommend Sepia for client entertainment and/or special occasions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful FoodWayneDined on 9/11/2014Sepia is a restaurant with a great menu and the food backs it up. A lovely setting matches the superb food that they offer.Special Features:
- Chicago Dining DestinationOldtimer8Dined on 9/9/2014Certainly one of the top dining destinations in Chicago, Sepia maintains high quality of cuisine and service at a price a bit below other restaurants of equal quality, while maintaining a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The menu is limited to about 10 or fewer choices for both appetizers and entrees, but there is sufficient variety and originality to make choices difficult. The wine list is both broad and adventurous, with enough quality choices in the $40-$50 range to appeal to a broader audience.Special Features:
- Special NightBirdi2Dined on 9/6/2014We choose this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary because my son had gone there and said it was amazing. He was right, the food was spectacular, with a great presentation, and very unique menu. Peach Gazpacho was incredible, and my husband had a pork collar that he could not get enough of.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vintage Vibe and Amazing FoodfoodiewannabeDined on 9/5/2014The dining experience at Sepia is top-notch. The ambiance is very classy with a vintage vibe. The food was superb and clearly deserving of its Michelin Star! The tea smoked duck and the smoked rainbow trout were out of this world. And how could i forget to mention the duck fat fried potatoes?! Delicious. It was the best meal we've had all year. They also have an interesting selection of libations and an extensive wine list (by the glass and by the bottle). The day after the dining visit, I received a call from Sepia thanking me for dining with them and ensuring that I had a great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Romantic Dining ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 9/4/2014Remember every visits at Sepia. If you get a close friend wants to find some cool or private place for special taste experience, I believe Sepia is a good choice. The entree here is not too large but decorative, with their cocktails. Cannot request more.Special Features:
- Great foodMAMADined on 8/30/2014Nice and friendly waiters. Great bar selection and cocktails. Service is nice and servers are friendly and very knowledgeable. Food took a little while to arrive, but the quality was as if every dish was hand-made by Chef Zimmerman himself.Special Features:
- Terribly Slow ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/30/201430 minute post reservation before actual seating. 1.5 hour wait for entree. Drink orders from bar in excess of 20 minute wait. When asked, server blamed it on the "10:30 dinner rush" - never in my life have I heard of such a thing, nor did the relatively empty dining room validate that excuse. Food was good, but absolutely not worth that kind of wait - I will never go back and caution you to spend your dollars elsewhere.
- Very nice foodfun2dineDined on 8/30/2014Very nice experience. The wine the waiter recommended was at a bit pricy side (probably x4 of the store price), but it was very good. The food (smoked duck & pig collar?) was perfect. The service was comfortable, but could be better at this level of restaurant. I may come back for the excellent dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Experience at SepiaSepiadinningDined on 8/30/2014- Overpriced drinks, anticipate $15-20 per drink & not all made well. - foie gras royale was excellent, needed to be served with more brioche. - butter lettuce, pickled ramp ranch was good but nothing special. Can get a ranch salad anywhere. - burrata had AMAZING FLAVOUR! Could have eaten the app myself. - ny strip steak cooked perfectly but the steak itself had no flavour what-so-ever. Sauce was good but had it not been present meat was flavourless. Would like to enjoy a steak without drowning it in sauce. - sea bass was too salty - duck excellent - duck fat fried potatoes were amazing. Presentation was beautiful. Loved the amuse bouche, burrata & the dessert. - Excellent service - Chairs are ugly - Soft music preferred to nothing.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/29/2014We sat in the private area for a small group. An extensive beverage list for everybody's taste. For apps, we tried the cavatelli with bone marrow butter, eggplant tortoloni, foie gras, charcuterie board. Everybody was thrilled. For my entree, I had the smoked trout which was flaky and perfectly cooked and I would definitely return for it. However, 2 people in my group had the steak which was difficult to cut and neither guest finished their meat. Another guest had the duck which she said was okay. Our server was attentive but seemingly frantic. Overall, the experience was a good one but not everybody left content. I would say that half my party would not return again. I'm not sure the food was at par with how much our bill ended up being.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- looking for a nice spot go to sepiadavessssDined on 8/28/2014sepia was tag best 'nice' meal I had in Chicago in 7 years. spend $100-$200 dollars and absolutely crush the date with incredible food ambience drink list, the entire package. service was great too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- What a GemAlwaysgetsVIPDined on 8/22/2014We ended up checking out Sepia and have been hitting the foodie scene a lot. I did not realize it was a michelin star rated restaurant and it delivered and did so at a great price point!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, but speak up!AnonymousVIPDined on 8/19/2014The food at Sepia is great. The portions are just right, the menu is varied but not overwhelming, and the flavors are interesting and fresh. It's a beautiful restaurant, too. All the staff, from the friendly woman at the door to our server, were accommodating and gracious. I'd give it 4.75 stars if I could, deducting 0.25 of a star for the unbelievable din of conversation filling the room when we were there. If you want to have an in-depth conversation during dinner, ask to be seated near the perimeter of the room where it's a bit quieter, or (I guess) bring a dining companion who's loud.Special Features:
- Great Food. Upscale classics.OldStyleVIPDined on 8/16/2014Fried chicken, served two ways was simply amazing. Soft tender breast and some of the best milanese-style thigh ever. NY Strip was prepared excellent, at a perfect medium-rare. A good steak doesn't really need anything, but the presentation here and accompanying dishes only heightened the experience. Chocolate-bourbon pudding to finish with fresh banana pastries wrapped up the evening nicely. An then, the complimentary bite of house brownie will put you over the top! Well done, sir.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding Food and ServiceDianaDined on 8/13/2014We took a very experienced group of diners out for a business dinner. They were very impressed and enjoyed themselves tremendously. They will be more likely to dine with us again if we treat them to caliber places such as Sepia.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2001Dined on 8/4/2014The only reason that I don't give it 5 stars is because it's rather pricey. However, the food, service, and décor are all excellent. Thanks very much for a wonderful evening!Special Features:
- Anniversary dinnerNewbieDined on 8/2/2014From the moment we walked in we felt very special celebrating our anniversary! The ambiance was really cool, the food was amazing and the service was perfect! The only down side was how were seated for a table of two was awkward and extrely close to the people next to us. They were chatting away about their day- and we felt like we were just sitting with them. I would absolutely recommend for you to try it out, but I don't think we would head back there for dinner again, but would stop in for a drink at the bar!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary SpecialSecureadineDined on 8/2/2014Took my wife there for our anniversary. Ordered the taste menu with wine pairing. Food and wine were excellent. Waiter was professional and knowledgeable. Special requests were no problem. Overall excellent experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AnniversarySnackAttackDined on 8/2/2014I made 6:45 pm reservations an hour before dinner, which is quite odd for a Michelin-starred restaurant. Even stranger was that we had the entire outdoor patio to ourselves for the first half of the meal. Thank you Lollapalooza!! The service was impeccable. We began with cocktails and ordered the peach gazpacho and toasted masa cavatelli to split. The in-season sweet corn mixed with perfectly prepared noodles provided a wonderful textural contrast. Combined with the succulent shrimp and doused in bone marrow butter, this dish was a winner. The peach gazpacho played good cop to the 'bad' cavatelli. The in-season peaches played nicely with the black cardamom froth, which finished the dish with a kick. Very refreshing. Want more characters!Special Features:
- PizzaVIPDined on 7/30/2014Food was fantastic. Our server, Taylor, was phenomenal- knew her stuff, made the evening great. Still dreaming about all the deliciousness we had.Special Features:
- Outstanding+Eclectic, big wine listMuddyDogCoffeeDined on 7/23/2014Sepia was recommended by one of my Chicago foodie friends. She recommended several places, and I was a bit apprehensive that Sepia was the only one with a reservation available (how good could it be, right?). Well, as someone who eats in 25-50 fine restaurants per year, I rank Sepia in my Top 5. For some reason, it seems to be under appreciated in terms of reservations. Food was seasonal and creative. Wine list outstanding. Service attentive. No negatives at all to report.Special Features:
- Outstanding ServiceCHIfoodieDined on 7/21/2014We had a wonderful experience at Sepia and it was hands-down due to the great waiter that served us. I went for a business dinner with my boss and our client. Our server was extremely knowledgeable yet nice and humble. He had great suggestions to offer when we described what we were looking for (from food to drinks). The food, drinks, and wine was spectacular, but our server (Tony) really was the value-add. If the rest of the wait staff is anything like Tony, you are guaranteed to have a great and memorable meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointed!GSPVIPVIPDined on 7/19/2014Worst service we've experienced in a long, long time. And, as dedicated opentable VIP members, we have a very good appreciation of what good service looks like, should be. Apparently, this restaurant did not understand, that we ( wife and I) have this good, experienced understanding. In turn, unfortunately, would not return to this restaurant, based on bad service, driven mainly by far too long of a wait for entrees to be brought out, etc.
- Great, but...RichHDined on 7/17/2014Like so many restaurants these days, they prefer to build buzz and energy rather than spend money on softening the noise level. We enjoyed the restaurant, but frankly as the room grew more crowded, all of us were looking forward to leaving so we could hear again. Table top conversations were difficult. The food and wine were excellent, the service took care of our dietary needs, but frankly, if you want to talk across the table, this isn't the place to go. They may call it energy, I don't.Special Features:
- Duck timeSepia2014Dined on 7/14/2014Got roasted duck, halibut, and duck fried potatoes. Roasted duck was amazing, halibut was clean and tasty. Duck fat fried potatoes were slightly salty but made a good pairing with halibut. Cocktails were well made (sazerac and gin martini) and got my friend drunk. Overall good experience as it's a Michelin level meal for $100.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Year of publication
- Distribution of Abacion texense (Loomis, 1937), the only milliped species traversing the Rio Grande, Mississippi, and Pecos rivers (Callipodida: Abacionidae) (2010)
- Localities are documented for the milliped Abacion texense (Loomis, 1837) (Callipodida: Abacionidae) whose distribution forms both the northern and southern ordinal limits in the Western Hemisphere. The westernmost component of Abacion Rafinesque, 1820, A. texense is the only milliped species whose range spans the Mississippi and Pecos rivers and the Rio Grande. Distribution extremes are in Hennepin County (Co.), Minnesota, in the north; Terrell and Potter cos., Texas, in the west; Alcorn Co., Mississippi, in the east; and southwestern Tamaulipas, Mexico, in the south. Occurrences are projected for southeastern South Dakota, northwestern Alabama, and the southwestern periphery of Tennessee. The type series of A. texense consists solely of the male holotype, so a neotype will be needed if this individual is ever lost, because no paratypes were officially designated.
- A third locality for the milliped Mitocybe auriportae Cook and Loomis, 1928 (Platydesmida: Andrognathidae) (2012)
- With the discovery of Mitocybe auriportae Cook and Loomis, 1928 (Platydesmida: Andrognathidae) in Alameda County (Co.), east of San Francisco Bay, a potential overall distribution in coastal California is projected based on those of partly congruent diplopods. The area extends from northern Mendocino to central Monterey cos. and inland to central Lake, Yolo, and Santa Clara cos.
- The milliped families Spirostreptidae (Spirostreptida) and Paradoxosomatidae (Polydesmida) in the Middle East; first records of the Diplopoda from Saudi Arabia (2009)
- The class Diplopoda, represented by the families Spirostreptidae (Spirostreptida) and Paradoxosomatidae (Polydesmida), is recorded from Saudi Arabia for the first time. Archispirostreptus transmarinus Hoffman, 1965 (Spirostreptidae) inhabits the Jabal Al-Hijaz Mountains in the southwest, and the Paradoxosomatidae, represented by an unidentifiable, indigenous female, occurs in a "wadi" in the center of the country. Other Middle Eastern familial records are documented, and occurrences in the Arabian Peninsula are mapped. Males, necessary to identify the paradoxosomatid, may be encountered if samplings are timed to coincide with seasonal rains.
- Distribution of the centipede Scolopocryptops sexspinosus (Say) in Alaska and Canada (Scolopendromorpha: Cryptopidae) (1992)
- Specific Alaskan and Canadian localities are recorded for the chilopod Scolopocryptops sexspinosus (Say) (Cryptopidae), the only indigenous Nearctic scolopendromorph species occurring north of the lower 48 states. It occurs west of the crest of the Coast Range in British Columbia, extending northward to the southernmost islands of Alaska, and is recorded for the first time from eastern Canada, from Niagara Gorge, Ontario. Reports of S. rubiginosus Koch from southern Alaska are based on a misidentification of S. sexspinosus, and records from the north-central United States are too distant from the international border for it to be plausible for Manitoba and western Ontario. This centipede does not occur along the Pacific Coast and is improbable for any other part of Canada.
- The milliped genus Orophe Chamberlin (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae) (1993)
- The milliped genus Orophe, characterized by long, twisted gonopodal telopodites with short subequal distal elements, is comprised of two allopatric species.
- A re-evaluation of the milliped genus Motyxia Chamberlin, with a re-diagnosis of the tribe Xystocheirini and remarks on the bioluminescence (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae) (1997)
- Motyxia Chamberlin is comprised of eight species of bioluminescent xystocheirine millipeds in which the gonopodal solenomere arises at different positions, from basally and subbasally on the acropodite to being fused with the companion acropodal branch and detaching proximad or near midlength. Previous synonymies ofAmplocheir Chamberlin and LuminodeslnllS Loomis and Davenport under Motyxia are confirmed as is its assignment to the tribe Xystocheirini, which is redefined. Component species are 111. Iwnw Chamberlin, the type species, monica Chamberlin, sequoiae (Loomis and Davenport), tularea (Chamberlin), sequoia (Chamberlin), pior Chamberlin, porrecta Causey and Tiemann, and tiemanni Causey. Motyxia sequoia is comprised oftwo races, the nominate and sequoia alia Causey and Tiemann; sequoia ollae Causey and Tiemann is properly a subspecies of tularea.1I1otyxiapiorform secea is an invalid name without standing in nomenclature, and M. tejona Chamberlin, andM. expansa and exilis, both by Loomis, are placed in synonymy under M. monica, the oldest name for the southernmost species, as Polydesllws dissectus Wood is referrable to Xystocheir Cook. The bioluminescence is a continuous, neon-white glow of the entire dorsal surface including the antennae and legs.Its visibility at night suggests a warning function analogous to aposematic coloration. The phenomenon may observe a circadian rhythm, and controlled photoperiod experimentation may be productive.
- Occurrence of the milliped, Stenodesmus tuobitus (Chamberlin), west of the Rio Grande (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae) (1992)
- New records of the xystodesmid diplopod Stenodesmus tuobitus (Chamberlin) extend its range and those of the family and suborder Chelodesmidea into southwestern New Mexico, west of the Rio Grande. They confirm that it inhabits arid juniper environments at relatively low elevations as well as moist deciduous fir forests at high elevations, thereby lending credence to past records from the former habitat in Lincoln County. Discovery of the milliped in neighboring mountain ranges to the north and west is now likely, with the distant possibility that it may occur in eastern Arizona.
- The Milliped order Glomeridesmida (Diplopoda: Pentazonia: Limacomorpha) in Oceania, the East Indies, and southeastern Asia; first records from Palau, the Philippines, Vanuatu, New Britain, the Island of New Guinea, Cambodia, Thailand, and Borneo and Sulawesi, Indonesia (2011)
- The taxonomically neglected milliped order Glomeridesmida and family Glomeridesmidae (infraclass Pentazonia, superorder Limacomorpha) inhabit 21, rather than seven, regions of the world, being newly recorded from Thailand; Cambodia; the Republics of Palau, the Philippines, and Vanuatu; New Britain, Bismarck Archipelago; the Island of New Guinea (both West Papua [formerly Irian Jaya], Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea); and Sulawesi and Borneo, Indonesia. Occurrence in Fiji is confirmed with two additional samples, and discovery is predicted in southern China, Myanmar, and perhaps Madagascar. Coupled with published localities, these records suggest subcontinuous (super)ordinal and familial ranges extending some 12,480 km (7,800 mi) southeastward from northwestern Thailand to Fiji. Though infrequently encountered, the taxa may actually be diverse and abundant within this area, which encompasses all of the Indochina and Malay peninsulas, the Philippines, Palau, the Island of Borneo and Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon and Santa Cruz Islands, Vanuatu, and Fiji; it excludes Taiwan, Australia, New Caledonia, and the Loyalty Islands. The paucity of preserved individuals probably results from their dark pigmentations and minute sizes, adults being <6.5 mm long; Berlese extractions and sieved litter techniques are recommended over hand collecting. Glomeridesmida are much more continuous, widespread, and abundant in the "east" than previously believed and clearly do not comprise a minor, insignificant taxon. The first glomeridesmidan photos are published.
- Occurrence of the milliped, Hiltonius carpinus carpinus Chamberlin, 1943 (Spirobolida: Spirobolidae), in the United States and new records from Mexico (2010)
- Hiltonius carpinus carpinus Chamberlin, 1943 (Spirobolida: Spirobolidae), is authoritatively recorded from the United States for the first time; it is known only from southern/southeastern Arizona but should be expected in adjoining counties of New Mexico. The northernmost locality is the Pinaleno Mountains, Graham County, and its distribution extends to southern Mexico; the other subspecies, H. c. vulcan (Chamberlin, 1953), occurs in Guatemala. The range of H. c. carpinus includes the type locality of the enigmatic H. fossulifer (Pocock, 1908), lending credence to prior suggestions that the names are synonymous. Three new Mexican states – Durango, Jalisco, and Nuevo León – are documented for H. c. carpinus.
- Annotated checklist of the millipeds of Florida (Arthropoda: Diplopoda) (2000)
- The milliped fauna of Florida consists of 8 orders, 18 families, 34 genera, and 51 species and subspecies; it comprises six elements: widespread species occurring widely in Florida, northern species reaching their southern limits in north Florida, neotropical species occurring naturally in Florida or adventive there, oriental adventives, Florida endemics, and southeastern endemics.

CLEVELAND – What a difference a year makes.
Twelve months ago Jose Reyes spent part of April on the disabled list with a severely sprained left ankle but there was no clear return date in sight.
On Saturday, Reyes was back from a strained left hamstring. There was greater clarity this time around. He didn't expect to be out much longer than the 15 days he was required to spend on the disabled list. Turns out he was right.
"Real happy just to be back with my teammates, see my guys again," said Reyes. "More happy that I'm going to be on the field, playing and doing what I love to do, just play baseball."
The Blue Jays technically went 9-7 in Reyes' absence but he was a non-factor on Opening Day, reinjuring the hamstring that gave him trouble during spring training while running to first base in his lead off at-bat. In fact, when Reyes took his shortstop position on Saturday afternoon it was his first time in the field this season.
For manager John Gibbons, who been able to field his preferred lineup far too infrequently since the start of last year, the return of Reyes means an opportunity to reset the lineup.
"It's the way it's supposed to look," said Gibbons. "Hopefully he gets us going a little bit more. He adds a little bit more offence. It's good to have him back."
Just as Reyes returns, the Jays formally lose Adam Lind through at least April 30 after he was placed on the disabled list with stiffness in his lower back.
In steps Juan Francisco, who hit 18 home runs in 348 bats for the Atlanta Braves and Milwuakee Brewers last season. Like Lind, Francisco will be a designated hitter who can spell Edwin Encarnacion at first base. He'll likely start at first base on Sunday. Francisco can play third base in a pinch, although he didn't get the call up for his defence.
Since signing a minor league deal with the Blue Jays on April 2 following his spring release by the Brewers, Francisco has posted a .341/.420/.568 slash line with two home runs and 11 RBI for the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons.
Blue Jays brass wrestled with the decision, Francisco or Dan Johnson, who's also off to a strong start with Buffalo (.318/.466/.591, three home runs, 10 RBI).
"Francisco worked out, he can hit a little bit," said Gibbons. "He's got some juice in that bat so hopefully he can add something while Lindy's out."
It's one of baseball's mysteries as to why a guy like Francisco can't find a permanent home in the major leagues. He's a left-handed bat and while not a batting average or on-base machine, at 26 years old and with his fourth big league Francisco's been around long enough to be, at the very least, a contributor off the bench.
"I've got no idea," said Gibbons. "Guys that make it in the big leagues and establish themselves, there have got to be some opportunities. I know he's had some opportunities but it's got to be in the right organization. They've got to like you. They've got to throw you out there no matter what. But he's got some talent. Hopefully he shows up."
Now that Jose Reyes has returned, Munenori Kawasaki is back in Buffalo, and with the Blue Jays committed to giving Ryan Goins the majority of playing time at second base, especially against right-handed pitching, Jonathan Diaz settles into a utility role.
Diaz hasn't played much outfield in his professional career but he's worked hard on the craft during batting practice.
"I've always loved to shag my entire career ever since I can remember," said Diaz. "Every time I'm done my ground balls I go out there and power shag and I enjoy it. I feel like that's prepared me throughout my life to be ready for this opportunity."
The Blue Jays transferred Maicer Izturis to the 60-day list, formalizing his protracted absence, and despite his selection over Kawasaki, Diaz lamented the tough decisions that had to be made.
"I was just saying earlier, we're all buddies, we all wish we could all stick around," said Diaz. "Kawasaki's such a great teammate but, you know, that's the way the game goes. Luckily I was able to stick around and I'm going to go out there and work hard at every position I can because I know I'm going to be that guy filling in a role."

Dev team releases updated Pwnage tool to preserve the baseband....
Glad I got my replacement iPhone yesturday early on as I managed to get my IBSS and IBEC signatures and also the file what gets put on cydia
DAmn!! I am glad I read this , I will not download anythig new untila JB is found !!!
After the Cydia update yesterday I was gonna go home and get the IBSS and IBEC files using the methods described.
Glad I didn't get to it, as I may have been stuck upgrading to 3.1 against my will...
My 3GS will be here today..... Thank god I had my Stepdad jailbreak it and unlock it before he sent it... He even got the IBEC and ECID for me... I just need to be really careful not to screw it up until the jailbreak is released.
Might be a little off topic but I am gonna say it anyways; What about iPod Touch users?
I upgraded to both iTunes 9 and 3.1.1 last night, and was very worried because the same thing that happened to iTunes 8.2 might happen to 9.0.
I trust the Dev Team. They will (most of the time) warn you if upgrading (iTunes or firmware) is not safe. Let's just hope that everyone who upgraded is still able to jailbreak.
Just another good reason why not to buy a iPhone 3GS..... Can anybody say,"Added Feature!". LOL
I just love me old 3G....
can someone tell me if you didnt upgrade to itune 9 can you down grade the phone
Dumb question of the day...
Where in Cydia do I go to get them the IBEC and IBSS files? When I first got my 3GS I did the manual method of pulling them so I have them locally, but if it's possible to store them in Cydia that would be even better!
What are the IBSS and IBEC files?
Where do i get them?
LMAO those who already upgraded too 3.1..... SUCKERS lmao how many time's do we have too tell you DON'T UPGRADE TILL THE DEV TEAMS TELL YOU TOO. lol... gonna say it again... SUCKERS lol
This is very disturbing. Afte upgrading iTunes to 9, it saw my 3G no trouble, but after connecting my 3GS it stated that it couldn't read the phone and told me to restore. I didn't do it because I'm waiting for the 3.1 JB and MMS and didn't want to go through a full restore process at 10PM or I'd still be working on it. I have my EICD, IBEC & IBSS files, but not my husbands (only have the EICD).

When I scrap a ship, does it accomplish anything besides reducing my financial burden? Does it matter if I scrap the ship in my own territory? Or would I be better off sending my useless ships on suicide runs to get them blown up an inconvenience my enemies?
Yes, but not directly.
Ships have a hidden "upkeep cost", just like improvements' more explicit upkeep. If your income drops so low that you start losing Dust, you can scrap ships to lower the upkeep cost (unlike, for example, Sins of a Solar Empire, where fleet upkeep is a separate, non-refundable upgrade).
It becomes clear that eventually this must be the fate of "Advanced Defenders" and their ilk, if they're not destroyed in combat. They're simply not worth your Dust.
Maybe...maybe not
I thought that perhaps it appears that scrapping a ship provides a similar reimbursement to when one scraps an improvement, but I've searched a half-dozen articles, including the official user manual and I can't find a reference to it.
However, another player concurs with me that there is some reimbursement for ship scrapping. When he scraps a large enough ship, he can see his dust (money) go up after a scrapping.

Was the universe created by God, or by the Big Bang Theory?
i believe both to be true, but i wanted to know what your views are on this. Physics is such a subject where it is difficult to prove anything, therefore we rely on our own views/religions. The big bang sill remains a theory , and there is no way was can 100% say this is how it exactly started

Jan 18 2012: i believe in god.
Yes there is such a theory which exists called the big bang. my question is all about one individuals faith and belief and whether or not you choose to belief one or the other or none that is up to you.
alothough no scientific evidnce can prove god there are many things in life which some people experience, you may want to read my story in a reply to another person

C SarrinJan 18 2012: @ T. Jones, or whoever you are.
How boring to answer all debate questions with "I don't know".....Imagine a presidential debate with the candidates answering thought provoking questions with "Gee, golly I just don't know". Instead, what do we hear? Lies....yes, lies. Everyone knows they are being lied to. But some humans enjoy being lied to everyone once in a while. What's wrong with that?
Truth, we can't handle the truth. Just let us say what we believe, without psychoanalyzing our responses.....we are aware that our current beliefs can/will change sometimes. But in the meantime let us have our fun.
C Sarrin
Jan 19 2012: C Sarrin (or whoever you are),
If we do not know - and there are many things we do not know - the appropriate response is to say, "I do not know."
Now, if there is something we believe in and do not know, we may accurately say, "I believe."
And so on.
And I do not believe the purpose of intellectual enquiry is to insulate you from your boredom.
You might not agree with me.
My name happens to be Thomas Jones and that is my picture ... whoever you are.
And as to your final thought: First, it isn't your thought, second, I doubt it will be the final thought you have. And, third, do you really think there are only two kinds of people in the world?
The comments and question are rhetorical (meaning: you are not expected to reply.)
Jan 19 2012: 100% agreed that the theory of big bang exists but there certain things that is still not yet clear i.e.,
according to the standard theory, our universe sprang into existence as "singularity" around 13.7 billion years ago. What is a "singularity" and where does it come from? Well, to be honest, we don't know for sure. Singularities are zones which defy our current understanding of physics. They are thought to exist at the core of "black holes." Black holes are areas of intense gravitational pressure. The pressure is thought to be so intense that finite matter is actually squished into infinite density (a mathematical concept which truly boggles the mind). These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun as an infinitesimally small, infinitely hot, infinitely dense, something - a singularity. Where did it come from? We don't know. Why did it appear? does it really happened? We don't know

What is a Diploma in Languages?
The Diploma in Languages is an extra undergraduate qualification that can be taken while studying another degree. It is the equivalent of a language major (48 points of study) and is appropriate for both beginners and those with a language background, as there are several entry levels. Languages offered are Chinese, Classical (Greek, Latin), French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Ukrainian.
Why study a Diploma in Languages?
Undertaking language studies will boost your appeal to prospective employers.
Many organisations require personnel who can communicate effectively with international companies or are able to easily move overseas to work.
The Diploma in Languages provides you with:
- Competency in a language other than English comparable to that of an Arts student majoring in the discipline;
- an understanding of the culture(s) and society(ies) associated with the language;
- increased cross-cultural understanding;
- enhanced possibilities for professional experience in the country(ies) where the language is spoken.
Studying a language also hones general skills. For example, language learning requires keen listening, and switching between languages develops flexible thinking patterns and sharper evaluation and comprehension. These skills are valuable for any career.
Monash Arts students
Normally you would commence the diploma at the same time you commence your main degree (first year)
Other students
- Students enrolled in a non-Arts bachelor's degree at Monash or another university.
- Students enrolled in a double degree at Monash or another university
- Students enrolled in an Arts degree at another university.
Approval is required from your home faculty, faculties or university. Normally you would commence the diploma at the same time you commence your main degree (first year). Applications will also be considered from students who decide at the beginning of their second or third year that they would like to study a language.
Students may be eligible for up to 24 points credit if they have already completed some language electives.
The diploma will usually add one year to your studies and will be completed concurrently with your main degree over a three to four-year period.
Completion time may be reduced if you receive credit for electives already done, or undertake summer semester units, including intensive study abroad programs available in some languages (see study in-country section).
High-achieving students may be able to reduce the time required by overloading in later years.
Clayton campus
Chinese; French; German; Indonesian; Italian; Japanese; Korean; Spanish; Ukrainian
Caulfield campus
Subject to class scheduling, students can travel from Caulfield to Clayton for language classes. Some Italian and Indonesian studies are offered.
Study in-country
Diploma in Languages students can undertake an in-country intensive program of four to eight weeks duration. Programs are offered over the Australian summer break in Shanghai and Beijing (Chinese), Prato (Italian), New Caledonia (French), and Yogyakarta (Indonesian). Semester-length programs are also available.
Application procedure
Information on applying to study in the Faculty of Arts:
For non-arts students entry to the diploma requires the approval of your home faculty or home university. Students admitted into the diploma negotiate a suitable program of study in consultation with their home faculty, and the relevant language discipline.
You should discuss your application with your home faculty and seek approval before lodging the application form.
Students who have completed some language electives at university may be eligible to apply for mid year intake into the Diploma in Languages.
Students cannot defer their place in the course. They should re-apply for entry in the year they wish to commence studying the diploma.

A pregnant woman sitting on a bench was hit by a falling tree and killed inside Kissena Park in Flushing Sunday evening.
Witnesses say it was an awful freak accident and that the woman was simply sitting on the bench when the tree came falling down on her.
"I heard a loud crash and a boom," Same Kim said. "When we got there we saw a young Asian girl lying face down and there was blood coming out of her head."
Salvatore Delligatti's wife was walking a dog and was just feet away when the tree came crashing down.
"She looked up and saw the tree across this park bench, and on top of the poor lady, it crushed her," Delligatti said.
Emergency responders rushed the woman, identified as Yingyi Li, to New York Hospital Queens, but she did not survive.
Delligatti and other people who live nearby told Fox 5 they were not surprised by the falling tree. They say many of the trees in Kissena Park appear to be in bad condition.
"They need another program where competent people, tree people, to come around and assess which trees should be taken down, because it's a mess," said Delligatti.
"There are other trees, huge trees that are slanted, they're tilted, they're old the roots are coming up, I guess they can only do so much at one time," said Artie Altierri, resident.
As police investigated, people took in the scene, shocked at the tragic outcome.
"She was just enjoying a beautiful day in the park, just a tragic thing to happen," said Kim.
NYC Park Advocates say this is the 12th incident involving a fallen tree branch or limb or in this case, an entire tree, in the last few weeks. This incident is the only fatal one in the recent spate of incidents.
The NYC Parks Department referred all calls regarding the incident to the NYPD.

After being officially vacant for nearly two years, the position of Cobb Director of Public Safety will be filled.
The Cobb Board of Commissioners on Tuesday approved the hiring of Jack Forsythe of Currituck, N.C., a former law enforcement executive with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Association/Homeland Security.
Forsythe succeeds Bob Ash, who retired two years ago, with Cobb Fire Chief Sam Heaton serving in an interim capacity.
The Marietta Daily Journal reported Tuesday that Cobb Commission Chairman Tim Lee said the position remained vacant during Cobb Citizens Oversight Committee deliberations.
The panel recommended that the position, which oversees operations for police, fire, emergency services and animal control, continue to be funded.
Also on Tuesday, the commission approved the hiring of Jackie McMorris as the new Cobb Director of Public Services. She had been the chief of staff of the Fulton County District Attorney's Office.
The position involves direction of the operations of the county public libraries, parks and recreation, senior services and extension services and serves as a liaison between the commission and the Cobb Board of Elections and Voter Registration.

Legislation to improve employment opportunities for north suburban residents was introduced today by Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Deerfield). It is the first bill introduced by the 10th District Congressman.
Aimed at small and medium sized companies, the law proposed by Schneider and Rep. Lou Barletta (R-PA) will help create a certification which schools and other training programs can issue to signify to a potential employer the credential holder is ready to step into a specific job.
Earlier: Local Businesses Bend Schneider's Ear
"Businesses want to grow and they need qualified, skilled people who are ready to go from day one," Schneider said. This was a major take away he got from a tour of area businesses Jan. 10 and 11. "This will help match the needs of businesses with the skills of people looking for work."
This will ease the way for states to work with companies under existing laws to develop the precise needs they require for a specific job in their place of business. Those who train the workers can then teach the necessary skills to issue the certificate.
"The employers will know the people are qualified because in many cases they helped develop the program," Schneider said. He said it will ease the way for governors of states to work with businesses and organizations like National Association of Manufacturers to develop the needed skills.
Another thing Schneider learned on his tour last month was the need for skilled workers in the northern suburbs and a lack of people with those skills. "Many of these jobs require technical science and math training," he said. A lot of the positions can be filled with a high school education and proper training.
Schneider is also proud of the fact his first legislation was introduced with a Republican from Pennsylvania. Both during his campaign and after winning the seat he has pledged to do what he can to end gridlock in Washington.

Devante Jones, 19, of Cliffwood was indicted this week on charges of eluding police after an August police chase which spanned from Howell to Aberdeen.
The chase eventually ended with his being apprehended following a foot pursuit in Aberdeen, according to police.
