Feb 22, 2011So my foray into the world of smartphones was brought to a short end over the weekend when my Android was destroyed by a minor spillage.
At this stage, I'm wondering if smartphones are all they are cracked up to be, and whether I actually want to buy a replacement. I'm just not sure - I guess I expected a lot more from the Android.
And so it endsIt all happened one Saturday morning. The phone was on the floor under the bed, plugged into the charger. This may sound like an odd place to keep it, but there's a reason for everything. Firstly, the bedroom is one of 2 places in the house that gets reception - see, the Nexus just doesn't get as good signal as the trusty old Nokia. Not even close. And secondly, the Nexus one has this giant blinky light that flashes every time you receive an email (ie permanently flashing). This is bright enough to warn passing ships of nearby danger, and certainly perfectly adequate for keeping one awake all night. So the lighthouse phone goes under the bed at night where it can blink to it's heart's content.
Then Emily accidentally knocked a glass of water off the side table. It landed on the floor but no spillage on the phone. This got cleaned up quick smart, and a towel was left there to soak up the water by the bed. At this point I'm making breakfast, and nobody else noticed the phone under the bed. I return a bit later and rescue the phone - no direct spillage but the screen is all misted up anyway. I unplug, remove the battery, dry out for 24+ hours in a warm place, then turn it on to see if it works. It doesn't. After a fair bit of playing around and a factory reset, I confirm that the device can boot but the touch controls are dead. And the phone won't charge. All indications point to a dead phone.
ReliabilityAs it turns out, I'm not alone in losing an expensive phone due to a tiny mistake. A friend dropped an Android from waist height onto a linoleum floor and the screen cracked. Another friend had his iPhone removed from the corporate network due to something about security (he now has a Blackberry and hates it). And I met someone else with a new Nexus One, also with hardware faults. The more I read online, it seems these things crack easily, can't sustain the tiniest amount of moisture, and need to be reset constantly due to software glitches. I'm talking smartphones in general here, not specifically Android. They just don't seem anything like as sturdy as normal cellphones.
The goodThere are some things I will miss if I decide not to go Android again. The first is my bike-riding routine - which involves Runkeeper to record my loop times (and monthly total distance), the music hammering out something to get the blood pumping, and the phone headset in case a client calls. I quite like to go for a sneaky bike ride during work hours, divert the landline, and pretend I'm in the office if someone calls. I'll definitely miss that, and dread going back to the dusty old ipod + itunes.
It's an immensely handy tool for powder days too. Plenty of times last season I would drop tools and skip off up the mountain for some skiing because the weather was good. More than once, my day got interrupted with urgent stuff, which is fixable with a smartphone. You can bring up a webpage, see what's going on, login to the hosting control panel, email the client back, FTP in and do stuff if you have to, etc. It gives more power for doing technical stuff when you don't have a computer handy. Far better than the alternative of driving back to the office.
I'll miss the news reader a lot. I never seem to find time to read the news at home or during the day, the Android has been great for catching up on the news while the kids play in the park.
And the camera on the Nexus One was well decent for a phone camera. A reasonable picture + plenty of storage space + the convenience of not having to carry around a proper camera means you take more photos when the opportunity arises. And that's a good thing. Also the Android is great for flicking through old photos, with the big screen and all.
Special mention goes to the maps and navigation features - absolutely lovely tools to have when away from home.
The badThese are all good things, but there's also the everyday annoyances which come about all the time when doing basic tasks. There's the crappy reception to consider - remember I'm comparing a $1000 brand new Nexus One to a 5 year old $250 Nokia here so really there's no excuse. There's countless small usability things like the above blinky light. There's this annoying glitch where the phone's touch screen won't respond after waking from sleep - even if the phone is ringing I often can't answer because the touchscreen takes 20 seconds to sort out it's shit. This issue is especially bad when Skype runs in the background which means I don't run Skype anymore. The email client has recently got mind-numbingly slow, taking about a minute on average to check email even on Wifi. Facebook photo uploads fail about half the time. The phone overheats when I use a protective case on it. The Google calendar doesn't seem to stay in sync properly and can't be trusted. The speaker gets drowned out easily if the phone is placed on certain soft surfaces, meaning you don't hear it ring.
A lot of this is minor, but seeing as we are talking about user experience, this is what spoils the fun.
The uglyThen there's Google's new 15 minute refund policy. Yet again, Google completely missing the point and offering no sensible explanation to users or developers. The Android Market previously offered a 24-hour no questions asked refund on any paid app - giving you time to evaluate and be sure that the app worked on your hardware (which isn't a given). In my mind easily the best feature of the Android market, and a fantastic feature that iPhone users don't get. A clear point of difference that made Android's market better if you will.
It's now shortened to 15 minutes and as usual, Google has fuck all to say on the matter other than "most people who request a refund do so within the first 15 minutes of download and that's why the change to 15 minutes". Which reminds me of when hard drive warranties in NZ went from 5 years to 1 year becasue "it's better for consumers that warranty periods are standard across all components". Right.
What Google have forgotten is that the 24 hour refund period puts the onus squarely on the developer to produce quality applications at a fair price. This is a massive driving force behind improving the quality of paid apps in the marketplace. Seriously, if a paid app can't sustain enough interest to make buyers want to keep it for just 24 hours, then it doesn't sound like a very good app to me.
Openness is about letting things succeed on their own merits. It's not about pedding something average and using complicated license agreements and contracts to screw the user out of choices and freedoms. The move to 15 minute refunds is a move away from openness and towards 'buyer beware'. In what world can this be a positive step?
Sleep on itSo I'm going to have to think about this for a bit, and in the meantime see how my old Nokia treats me. It's certainly much more comfortable in the pocket and the battery life is fantastic, but it does have a few glitches of it's own to deal with.
A lot will come down to whether the insurance company ponys up the cash for the replacement - there's no way I liked the Android enough to want to fork out another $1000 of hard-earned cash, but for an insurance payout I might go there again. I'd love to be able to finish off the half-complete Android apps I'm working on if I ever find some free time.
I'll also revisit the idea of an iPhone4 again - maybe there's some merit in that idea after all with the benefit of hindsight?
One final thought - don't you just wish Nokia would make an Android phone? I'm certain their awesome hardware would go a long way to fixing many of Android's shortcomings

Why are you ladies dating total losers? What's in it for you? I know women who are smart, kind, funny, creative, and they accept guys who hinder them in every realm... and then they disappear from healthy friendships. My female friends date men who don't work, or barely work (and they support them) don't engage them mentally, don't contribute to the household, treat their kids like strangers, and are socially retarded. Women would never, ever tolerate these slugs as female friends. But they get a mamma and a maid in return. I am so tired of watching my friends settle for mutants who need their food chewed for them. It is about time that these men identify as the adult babies that they are.

|Working to achieve well planned, sustainable regional capitals...
Local Government Leadership
Creating vibrant regional capitals requires not only an investment in infrastructure and services but an investment in thinking – a strategic approach to the challenges and opportunities of sustainable growth. A commitment to strong planning for the future from all levels of government is fundamental.
Regional Capitals Australia seeks to bring about a collaborative approach to the development of Australia's regional cities. The group is working with all levels of government to keep the momentum of regionalism moving forward; ensuring strong regional capitals means a strong Australia.
What is a regional capital?
RCA defines a regional capital as a regional city, located outside the state metropolitan urban growth boundary. A regional capital provides a central point to access essential infrastructure, services, business, employment and education for local residents as well as those in surrounding towns and rural areas. These cities perform a 'capital city' role within their regions.
Why are regional capitals important?
Regional capitals are significant social and economic contributors to regional Australia and Australia as a whole. Hear our members explain the importance of regional capitals and the work of our alliance in the video below.

Yum Thai Duck Bowl
By Scott Sharot
I crave Tom Yum Goong, which is a delicious spicy, tart shrimp soup that's offered at most Thai restaurants. It seems complicated to make and has a lot going on, but it's really quite easy. Here's a quick and tasty version of the soup that uses duck instead of shrimp. When I'm really in a hurry I make the broth from Oriental-flavor Ramen packets (they're not bad in a pinch). I either buy Peking duck already cooked from the Oriental market, or I use frozen confit (duck legs) left over from my twice-yearly cassoulet extravaganzas. You can also use chicken, scallops or shrimp, or just vegetables instead of duck—it's all good.
Restaurant Review
Krung Thai
It's all here
By Scott Sharot
We are fortunate to have a very nice selection of good quality Thai restaurants to choose from in Albuquerque. For several months, I kept hearing about this new one, so when a friend who lived in Thailand for several years said that Krung Thai was his favorite, I went there. I'm happy to report that now I also have a new favorite Thai restaurant.

I know you've already read the headline so you know the answer, but pretend you didn't.
Suppose I told you a pitcher in his last three years has a record of 54-18, an ERA of 2.74, averages over a strikeout per inning, and that his hits and walks combined have never surpassed his inning or strikeout count in any of those years. Who would we be talking about?
Why, he would be the ace of the Minnesota Twins, Johan Santana.
This year the 27-year-old lefthander is 18-5 with a 2.75 ERA. He's a god-among-men 10-0 at home and a less-impressive-but-still-better-than-me 7-5 on the road. On a Twins pitching staff that carried on without phenom Francisco Liriano since late July — as well as veteran Brad Radke battling nagging injuries — Santana took a rotation running out of gas, got out of the car, and began pushing.
Santana won the Cy Young in 2004, although he should have won it last year and ought to be a lock for it this year. Oddly enough, he's only made one All-Star game, which was last year (Correction: This is a bald-faced lie). That means he wasn't even an All-Star the year he won the Cy Young
, nor did he make the squad this year (although Liriano barely made the cut as an alternate).
While this sadly looks like a lack of respect, it makes perfect sense since his best numbers don't emerge until after the All-Star Game. Look at his first half numbers since 2004:
He made the All-Star team in '05 likely due to the respect of being the incumbent Cy Young winner, but those numbers are all fairly consistent.
Now let's gander at his numbers from mid-July through September:
2006: 8-0, 2.63 ERA (with half a month left to go)
Twice is a coincidence, but three times is a pattern. If the man has so much as a sub-4.00 ERA and a winning record going into July, he ought to make the All-Star team until his arm can no longer bend.
This is a guy who the Houston Astros let the Florida Marlins snatch him up in the 1999 Rule V Draft. Worse, later that day the Marlins traded him to the Twins for Jared Camp, a pitcher who never left the minor leagues.
Back on August 3 the Twins were just two games behind the Chicago White Sox and three behind Boston/New York for the Wild Card. Today they own the Wild Card lead by 1 1/2 games, but scarier still they trail those division leading Detroit Tigers by another 1 1/2 games.
If the Twins can surpass the Tigers, Johan Santana is hands down this year's American League Cy Young winner. And also the MVP.Powered by Sidelines

Where have they all come from? All these hipsters, tiny of beard and large of spectacle? Is there a shuttle bus, bringing them over from east London? Why is that man wearing some kind of shortie pyjama suit? And shouldn't that girl try and cover up some of those tattoos with a pretty scarf?
This week we're in Shrimpy's, which pretty much represents the cutting-edge of London dining, at least for those of us who don't get out much. Look away now, if you are sensitive to any of the following words. Pop-up. Art space. Urban regeneration. Calexican food. For Shrimpy's is – in a move guaranteed to stymie even the most ardent parodists of trendy nonsense – a temporary diner housed in the kiosk of a former petrol station. Marooned in the interzone of high-rise developments behind Kings Cross, the old filling station has been re-purposed as a canalside gallery, bar and restaurant, and rebranded as – hah! – King's Cross Filling Station. Once, this was a notorious red-light area. Now the miniskirted girls are buying, rather than selling.
Last time I queued in this space, it was to pay for pump number four and a packet of Rolos. Now I am threading my way across an al fresco terrace, through what seems to be a staff outing from Perfect Curve, and lining up for a table in the booked-out diner. It's small – imagine, say, a petrol station kiosk that has been taken over by architects. The look is American diner with a quirky urban twist, the counter lined with bar stools but sporting flowers and thrift-store pineapple lamps, the walls painted with naïve primary-coloured motifs, like the window display of a particularly inept tattoo parlour.
But the welcome is warm, the velvet banquettes comfortable and the tables draped in crisp linen. Staff are impeccably turned out, in classic French waiter garb of white jackets and black ties. The formal effect was slightly undermined by our Amazonian waitress's double-decker hairstyle – a bleached white bubble perched atop a dark buzz cut. "I've never been intimidated by a waitress's hair before," whispered Harry.
The men behind Shrimpy's are Pablo Flack and David Waddington of Bistrotheque, who have form in creating arty restaurants, both temporary and permanent. Their chef-director, Tom Collins, has apparently travelled through the Americas, both North and South, in search of inspiration for Shrimpy's menu. It reads well, taking a road trip through Mexico (tuna tostadas; skirt steak with chimichurri) Peru (ceviche with plantains) and the Deep South (sweetcorn chowder; fried chicken; soft shell crab burger) with stopovers in Portugal (salt cod croquettes) and Italy (veal chop with fennel, olives and Sambuca). It's so modish, so directional, you'd want to laugh at it, if you didn't want to order everything on it. The cocktail list, too, is full of come-hither tempters, though the margarita with hot Habanero sauce isn't one of them. And prices are generally far steeper than the diner-like plainness of the setting suggests – starters average around £8, and mains from £16 to £19.
So, time to fuel up. Sweetcorn chowder, too often a one-note blast of creamy sweetness, was well-anchored with salt and spice, and swirls of sour cream and chilli oil to keep things interesting. And Shrimpy's must-have dish – the soft-shell crab burger that had its own Twitter following within days – lived up to its rep, the soft sesame bun char-striped from the grill, the crab's distinctive flavour shining through a golden puffy batter. But tuna tostada – fried tortilla decorated with raw tuna, shredded lettuce, avocado and tendrils of fried onion – seemed to have been put together purely for visual effect, the tostada itself as chewy as an old toenail.
No modern menu worth its salt dares not to offer onglet, or skirt steak, these days. But it was the salt that sabotaged Shrimpy's version, apparently the creation of a heavy-smoking chef. Or one who hadn't tasted the pungently acidic dressing on a green salad, or the overwhelming chimichurri sauce which prompted Harry's gloomy Alan Hansen impression – "thyme, and thyme, and thyme again". If that sauce had been petrol, it would have been heavy-leaded four star, and swiftly withdrawn from sale.
The 50-shades-of-Shoreditch clientele is clearly carb-averse; the menu offers only three desserts plus cheese. But the two we tried were good – particularly the brownies, served in a sundae coupe with chocolate ice-cream.
It's a fun place. We loved the vintage wine glasses, and the penguin-shaped ceramic carafes. And we loved our waitress, whose every movement was performed with such a precise, silent-movie flourish, I correctly guessed she trained as a mime artist. Ah, London 2012. The petrol stations are restaurants, the waiters are mime artists, and the hipsters are out on the street, desperately trying to flag down taxis to take them back east. But maybe taxis don't come this way so much, not since they closed the petrol station.

This review is from: ASUS GeForce GTX 780 DirectX 11 GTX780-3GD5 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: This thing is a monster. Chews up anything i throw at it and with style no less. Looks awesome, and with the latest drivers the LED "GEFORCE GTX" logo on the side can be manipulated to do a couple different effects.
Cons: Price is only thing. On paper the non reference cards perform better but the difference isnt that much but the price is the better part of $100 more expensive than a better performing version of the same card. Paying for aesthetics i guess.
Other Thoughts: Paired with an AMD FX-8350 OC'd to 4.5Ghz im getting 70FPS on Battlefield 4 cranked all the way up. So like i said its a beast but if you dont care about looks go with the cheaper non-reference cards since they perform better.READ FULL REVIEW

Thai Basil Chicken
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 20 mins
Adapted (liberally) from Simply THAI Cooking, this is a favorite in our house, as testified by the badly stained page in my cookbook. Can also sub pork for the chicken. Change vege to suit your taste - green beans are nice instead of bok choy. Prep all ingredients, including the sauces, before starting to cook.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 medium bok choy, sliced 1-inch wide, whites and greens separated
- 1⁄2 onion, sliced
- 1⁄2 red bell pepper, sliced
- 12 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sliced 1/4-inch thick
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1⁄4 cup shredded basil
- peanut oil, for stir-fying
Sauce 1
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
Sauce 2
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 4 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon chili paste
Sauce 3
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- Heat oil in wok. Stir-fry onions, peppers, and white part of bok-choy until crisp tender. Remove and keep warm.
- Add oil to wok if needed and stir-fry chicken, garlic, and pepper flakes until chicken is done. Add sauces in order, stirring between each addition to coat. Add cooked vegetables back and stir to coat.
- Add green part of bok choy and basil, stirring just unti hot-crisp, and beginning to wilt. Serve immediately.

First off I want to say that I normally don't write review, even though I should, since I am always using them to help me out. Anywhooo, this meal was FANTASTIC!!!!!! B/c I read a lot of the reviews I made some changes. First off, b/c i read a complaint of saltiness, I decided to go with Braggs ( natural soy sauce) and I did not use fish sauce ( did not have it) I just simply used 3tbls of braggs and 1 tbls of lime juice (read this is a great substitute for fish sauce). I also used the red curry paste and red pepper flakes ( read from one of the earlier reviews). I added a lot of vegs, ( broccoli, green & red pepper, onions, zucchini & mushrooms). My fam LUVD it. We will def be having this again and again. I cant say enough about how good it was.
This was fantastic, the flavor was amazing! I used broccoli, onion, red pepper, and mushrooms. I substituted hoisin sauce for oyster sauce because I couldn't find oyster sauce without HFCS, it was super tasty! I also used half teaspoon of chili paste and it was very mild, I'll probably use more next time, but I was a little worried about the spice. I wanted something like the traditional dish at a local thai place and this far exceeded my expectations of anything I could make! Thank you for this recipe, my hubb and I LOVED it!!!
This was surprisingly good. Found the recipe when searching for something to use up some fresh basil (although after reading some reviews now I want to try to find some thai basil!) It was my first time eating bok choy, not bad! The only subs we made were using 1 tsp green curry paste instead of chili paste, and we added peanuts because my husband loves to put them in any asian dish that he can. For me it was on the verge of being too salty but the flavor won out. Maybe the low sodium soy sauce saved it from going over the salty edge? Will definitely be making this again!

I also give my beans a short blanching period, about 2 minutes, before
packing them into the jars. It makes the beans more flexible, which
gives you a tighter pack, and it means less shrinkage when the jars are
in the boiling water bath.

Dilly Beans
2lbs green or wax beans
2 1/2c water
2 1/2c distilled white vinegar
3T salt
4 sprigs fresh dill
4 garlic cloves, peeled
4t red pepper flakes
Snap stems from beans, then cut beans 3/4 inch shorter than the height
of the jars. (You can cut them into 1-2 inch lengths, but they are not
nearly as pretty or easy to eat!) Combine the water, vinegar, and salt
in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Place 1 sprig of dill, 1 garlic
clove, and 1t red pepper flakes in each pint jar. Pack the beans in
the jars and ladle the boiling vinegar mixture over them, leaving 1/2
in headspace. Cover, and process in a hot water bath for 10 min. You
may get more than 4 pints from this recipe, depending on the accuracy
of your scale, or how tightly you pack the beans in the jars!

Daniel Boone by John Stevens Cabot Abbott
Book DescriptionJohn Stevens Cabot Abbott (1805-1877) who also wrote under the pseudonyms Jacob Abbott and Joseph S. C. Abbott, was an American historian, pastor, and pedagogical writer. Dr. Abbott graduated at Bowdoin College in 1825, prepared for the ministry at Andover Theological Seminary, and between 1830 and 1844, when he retired from the ministry in the Congregational Church, preached successively at Worcester, Roxbury and Nantucket, all in Massachusetts. Owing to the success of a little work, The Mother at Home; or, The Principles of Maternal Duty, he devoted himself, from 1844 onwards, to literature. He was a voluminous writer of books on Christian ethics, and of popular histories, which were credited with cultivating a popular interest in history. He is best known as the author of the widely popular Napoleon Bonaparte (1855), in which the various elements and episodes in Napoleon's career are described. Abbott takes a very favourable view towards his subject throughout. Also among his principal works are: History of the Civil War in America (1863-66), Hortense (1870), The History of Frederick II, Called Frederick the Great (1871) and Daniel Boone: The Pioneer of Kentucky (1872).

Run for your life.
Or whatever's left of it.
Is it worth all the pain?
All the adrenaline rushing through you?
It tires you,
It exhausts you,
But still,
You run.
Every day,
Every night,
Even in your sleep.
You cannot stop.
If you do,
You will die.
You run from everything,
From the enemy that chases you,
From the past that is already behind.
You still run,
To the future,
To the safety,
That you have already passed by.
Several opportunities…thrown away,
Because you do not stop.
Death is chasing you to his own self.
You will die either way.
You still run.
You turn the corner,
And there Death is.
You stop.
No longer exhausted,
No longer tired,
No more adrenaline left.
It isn't worth all the pain.
There is nothing left of your life.
You've used all up.
No longer can you…

Hi Hosta List,
I went today to inspect part of my Hosta collection I grow in other
place far from where I garden. It is a colder place and I thought I
could be in time to see if slugs and snails had done their nasty job...
Well, I've arrived far too late!!!. On the early sprouting hostas the
foliage was severely ravaged by these %??@ bugs and, frankly, the plants
looked dreadful. The only thing I could do was trying to clean the base
of the plants and shovel some slug bait. I can only check these plants
once a week at the most. Is there any hope for these plants to make some
new growth?. What can I do???. the ammonia solution would help for if
there are critters inside the clumps?. Too late, too late!!! :o(

Arabs in Gaza, Jerusalem, Yafo and the Israeli territories protested against America, free speech, and the "Innocence" movie. From Al Qaida supporting Salafists to Hamas, the entire range of Palestinian culture was represented on Friday's protests across the country.

No indeed, I am in agreement on freedom of expression: We could also make a video about Jesus, or something funny about the Jews, the Buddhists, or better yet… But that's not the point. The truth is that America implements the seemingly small and trivial, only through the obvious reactions to create a climate of fear in regard to Islam, this is a serious issue. All strategies to make the already tense climate, even worse, pretending to public opinion, that Islam is extremism-terrorism and as such must be eliminated.

There's no such thing as arrogance for Kanye West when it comes to love and romance.
The 36-year-old rapper admitted to Ryan Seacrest on his radio show Tuesday that he was nervous before proposing to his fiancee, Kim Kardashian, on her 33rd birthday.
"I'm not arrogant about love and feelings at all. I'm confident about the work that I put so much work into, but this is someone else's feelings. You never know what someone might feel. I just knew that I wanted her to be my girl for a long time."
West has shared that the plan is to hold the wedding next summer, and he does intend to take part in orchestrating the ceremony.
While he told Seacrest that he wants to be "very involved," perhaps tapping "the people who do the Chanel shows," West isn't thinking quiet and docile.
"I only got two words in my mind so far, as far as ideas for the wedding go," he told Los Angeles radio station Power 106 radio earlier this week. "That's fighter jets."
If that's what West ends up settling on, his soon-to-be-bride is more than happy to let it fly.
"As far as wedding stuff, we haven't even talked about anything, it's been such a whirlwind," Kardashian told E!. "We need like a moment to relax and figure it all out," she said. "I'm going to leave this up to him. Whatever he wants."
One thing she has decided is whether or not she'll take West's last name.
"I will," she told E!. "Kim Kardashian West, (no) hypen. Make (Kardashian) the middle."

Job Description for Legal Counsel
Legal counsels, also called general counsels, are the chief lawyers of large corporations or government agencies. They advise departments on legal ramifications, ensure that the business is working in accordance with the law, and may represent the company or government agency in the case that a law suit is filed.Read More...
Legal counsels are usually included early in any company's decision making process. This helps ensure that there will be no room for error when it comes to working within the law. This may sometimes cause tension, since it is their responsibility to provide professional and sound judgments if they see any actions that aren't in compliance with the law. Legal counsels also often attend important board and committee meetings. In order for legal counsels to be an effective and important part of the company, they need to have a close relationship with the board and stay up to date with what is happening.
Legal counsels are typically skilled in multiple areas of the law, including securities, compliance, labor and employment, compensation, risk and dispute management, litigation, class action suits and corporate governance. Depending on the company in which they work, other areas of expertise will be expected.
Legal counsels have law degrees and are typically targeted from outside corporations. They may already be working as attorneys at law firms and they may be approached by a company. Regardless of how they are hired, they are expected to be great communicators, hard working, and show leadership, firm and fair judgment, and a great deal of integrity.
Legal Counsel Tasks
- Advise business in legal affairs of the company including government regulations, taxes, and legal and human rights.
- Apply for registration and copyrights for the products, processes, and trademarks of the organization.
- Manage disputes and litigations.
- Prepare and review legal documents including contracts, licenses, leases, sales and purchases, and real estate, etc.

The move was in the right direction at the Shell Houston Open, though lunch for Rory McIlroy would have been an uneasy diet of hope served with the prospect of disappointment. McIlroy shot a second-round 70 to enter the clubhouse bang on the projected cut mark of one under par.
There was none of the unevenness of the first day when McIlroy rescued a rusty outward nine with a much sharper routing homeward. It is all about what happens next for all the participants in Texas, no matter what they say in public.
With only 10 competitive rounds completed this year, McIlroy arrived in Houston hoping to make it 12 before the first major of the season at the Masters in a fortnight.
Starting at the 10th McIlroy posted six successive birdies before pumping some heat into the putter with a birdies at 16 and 17. A bogey at the second seriously threatened his participation across the weekend before a birdie at the par-five eighth, where he had rinsed his ball in the lake on the first day, at least eased digestion while he waited for the afternoon starters to determine his fate.
Of those, Lee Westwood, also starting his second round at the 10th, came out blazing with his new putter, carding a birdie to reach five under par. Westwood is seeking a first win since moving permanently to the United States last December.
On the European Tour, Germany's Marcel Siem kept up his charge towards Augusta with a second round 68 to take a three-shot lead into the weekend. Siem needs to win the Hassan Trophy to claim a place in the world top-50 and gain entry to the Masters for the first time.
"I am trying my best," Siem said. "It is a tournament I have always wanted to play and if I can keep calm and play the way that I have been for the first two days here then I have a chance. I actually hope the wind blows a little bit more because I actually enjoy the challenge of playing into the wind and it would also keep the guys behind me away from me because if there is no wind out there then people can go very low around this course."
England's 2011 winner David Horsey and Finland's Mikko Ilonen represent the greatest threat to Siem's Masters ambitions. Ilonen posted a 66, including a 60 foot eagle putt at the long 17th, to bring a first victory since 2007 into view.
Horsey flew out of the traps with four birdies in the opening five holes but a double-bogey at the par-three eighth briefly stole his momentum. Horsey clearly likes this course and was off again starting the back nine with successive. He added two more on the way in only to sign off with a bogey at 18.
"I am pleased overall and in a good position going into the weekend," Horsey said, enjoying a more benign day than the gusty morning he encountered on Thursday. "I think you do feed off the positive vibes when you come back to a place where you have won and that is certainly the case for me this week. I am coming into form at the right time and I have been playing good the last few weeks."

Their cars, particularly this this 1935 C25 Cimier, remain some of the most striking auto designs in history. We have an excellent history of Voisin's left-field approach to carmaking right here, when we inducted the Voisin C28 Aerosport into the Jalopnik Fantasy Garage. In short, Voisin started off building planes, and when he switched over to cars he brought his craftsmanship, his aerodynamics, and his engines with him.

Customers buy more capacity, typically. They dont buy exactly what they need. So if the amount of processor power [shipped] is going up quarter to quarter, it says that the customers future intention is, "Im going to do additional work on this platform, and Im just building the accommodation." Heres why Im really excited on this thing. Its because what got announced was that our specialty engine MIPS were up substantially in the first quarter. In fact, the mix of MIPSof our specialty engine vs. what we call our general-purpose MIPSwas up to about 35 percent of the total MIPS. Thats a leading indicator that not only is the customer buying capacity for future use, its buying specialty engines for future use that are running brand-new workloads that have never run on the mainframe, or on their particular mainframe. Theyre saying, "Im not only going to buy capacity for general-purpose workloads. Im going to buy extra capacity at a faster rate for consolidating Linuxeliminating Intel servers, consolidating them onto what we call IFLs [Integrated Facility for Linux], or the specialty engines for Linux." That theyre leaning into taking WebSphere and moving it into the zAAP [zSystems Application Assist Processor] engine, which is the advanced application processor for Java workloads. Now we announced in January the zIIP engine that became [generally available] in April. Our early indications are that theres a thirst in the market for that. So these leading indicators on MIPS are vital to say, "OK, the customer over time is going to do work on the platform." So thats a leading indicator that revenues will grow.We see it as both. Ill give you clear examples of it. When we made these specialty engines available to our existing mainframe customers, we saw a dramatic increase in growthrevenue growth, MIPS growth, workload growth. Now the great news is that weve taken that strategy and deployed it in the small and midrange machine that we announced back in April. We didnt just announce a "mainframe lite," we announced a low-priced mainframe thats around a $100,000 entry price. Its got the exact same capability with these specialty engines. So think about a small to midsize customer. They can now scale up their open-source workload, they scale up their Java-based workload, they build a databasethey dont even have to wait to become an enterprise-class customer to take advantage of these capabilities. They can start out [now] because every one of these accounts I go to, they have mixed workloads. Theres nobody thats running a one-type, one-class workload. So the reason why we say it helps with both is, a new customer to the mainframe thats buying a platform for the first time can exploit the type of capability day one with the first MIP. Which is one of the reasons why we announced the business-class machinecalled the z9 Business Classin China, in Beijing. We had hundreds of customersreporters, toothat witnessed it because we realized there were 10 million small businesses in and around that sector that could take advantage of that. So this is how we see the growth, both vertically with our existing customers and horizontally, not only with medium-sized customers in new industries, but also new markets. You mentioned the launch of the midrange mainframe in China. Can you talk about the new markets youre targeting for the mainframe? We see this growth opportunity beyond what has traditionally been our core business. Were very strong in financial services, in banking, in insurance, even in the investment side of financial services, private banking. Weve got a presence there because those customers have always required a high level of availability, but also a high level of trust between the mainframe delivery and their customers. Its a demanding environment, its a capital intensive environment, and theyve got enough capital to do anything they want to do. They can push the envelope. Next Page: Security is a key selling point.
Regarding the specialty engines, is that growth within the current mainframe installed base, or do you see that coming from new mainframe customers?
