Skip to comments.2 dead, 29 injured in Tunis as protesters storm US Embassy, set fire to American school
Posted on 09/14/2012 2:34:20 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
TUNIS, Tunisia Violent protests outside the U.S. Embassy in Tunis against an anti-Muslim film were met with tear gas and gunshots Friday, leaving two people dead, 29 others injured and plumes of black smoke wafting over the city.
Several dozen protesters briefly stormed the U.S. Embassy compound in Tunisias capital, tearing down the American flag and raising a flag with the Muslim profession of faith on it as part of the protests. Protesters also set fire to an American school adjacent to the embassy compound and prevented firefighters from approaching it. The school appeared to be empty and no injuries were reported...

Were the dead and injured all protestors?
I truly hope so.
I wonder if GWB ever formally kicked the @ss of the speech writer that coined the term "Religion of Peace"...
Justice would be if half the mudslime protesters died as a result of their evil actions. The survivors would eventually
get a clue.
Salvation would be the result if they all died from it.
why aren't we on full scale alert!!! these are acts of war..
shouldn't our people be in a White House situation room??
what in the heck is going on over there?
All he has to do is publicly retract that statement.
He hasn't, so we can safely assume that his opinion on that subject has not changed.
More than you can imagine.
No way this is about some stupid movie. This is just barbarians doing what barbarians do.
I agree. Fly in a C-17 load of M134 miniguns, put 3 or 4 on each embassy compound roof with 4,000 lbs of 7.62 ammunition. Use liberally when required. Repeat as needed.
raising a flag with the Muslim profession of faith on it as part of the protests
They keep repeating this but the black flag is the war flag
I doubt that very much. Dumbass doofus dumber than Shiite, GW Bush actually enjoyed that outrageous lie, and repeated it on numerous occasions. Less than 3 weeks after 9/11, is when GW Bush first made this outrageous statement.
He declared on more than one occasion, that all roads lead to heaven... so much for his supposed Christian faith, and certainly no Biblical knowledge or understanding at all. Jesus declared that He is the way, the truth & life. No man comes to the Father except by Him. In the book of Acts, it declares there is no other name under Heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved. Not Islam, not Muhammad, not Buddha, not Confucius, etc. Only the name of Jesus. GW Bush is ignorant & unaware of this basic tenet of the Christian faith.
I would be willing to bet that GW Bush had more sympathies for the muzzies killing our ambassador & other Americans, and would vent his outrage against the filmmaker rather than the muzzies.
GW Bush has been a panderer & appeaser & capitulator from day one, and the only ones that he criticizes are conservatives & Tea party members.
Why such a feeble response? I would like to see hackers take over the video airwaves in the ME and force feed repeated viewings of the Mohammed movie. Place geosynchronous satellites over the region and jam all their airwaves and repeatedly show the movie. Eventually they'll kill each other and themselves to relieve the agony.
As the jackass continues campaigning ....
Islam is a Faith of Hate and a Cult of Insanity
Until we all acknowledge this...we will continue to have problems with Islam. Time to cut the political correctness...time to stop blaming this on some "film"
You are correct....GW Bush was just as much a wuss towards the Islamic Terrorists as the Democrats were.
Anyone who states "Islam is a Religion of Peace" is not on the side of America or Americans. Its time for the PhonyCons to get real...
did are Marines not have ammo again?
Can someone please help me? I've been watching the news non-stop since the mid-east blew up and I don't remember if anyone address this ...
Do we know WHY the Cairo embassy sent out the apology statement in the first place? I mean, did they get a note saying protesters were headed their way and they're mad about a video?
I haven't seen an answer to this anywhere, can someone help direct me if there is please? thanks

Thread: First Time Out With The Grizzly
First Time Out With The Grizzly
Took the Grizzly out for a test drive after lunch yesterday. 20yds. only. Left and right was good not too much wider than a big deer target's 10 ring with an occasional oops. I used a good bit of that block vertically though. I was pleased that drawing 48# (29" draw) was very comfortable for me, just a bit of stack right at the very end. Any thoughts from you traditional shooters on the vertical stringing?Bear Grizzly, Beman Centershot/Steelforce , Legacy Quiver

my first thought is velocity due too inconsistent DL, or inconsistent anchor height. without a sight pin as a gauge it's tough.
I raised my anchor point on my face and my short range shots are way better. Are you trying to gap?
If just trying instinctive keep both eyes open and mabey raise that anchor, my old corner of the mouth anchor was a point-on 50-60. left a lot of room on the closer shots.FBSA Member

Los Angeles Unified Superintendent John Deasy has given principals another month, until May 30, to review decades worth of personnel files as part of the district's continuing investigation of teacher misconduct.
In the wake of the Miramonte Elementary sex-abuse scandal, Deasy ordered a review of personnel files at the district's 900-plus campuses, with principals ordered to look for allegations of sexual misconduct, inappropriate behavior, violence or drug-related activity.
The original deadline of April 16 was extended because the task proved so time-consuming.

Thread: Breastfeeding and Tongue Tie
Threaded View
9th July 2013 03:40 AM #1
Breastfeeding and Tongue Tie
Have you breastfed a baby with a tongue tie? There seems to be varying opinions among health professionals as to the impact that a tongue tie has on breastfeeding; I think it would be good to gather our experiences here to help support mums' of babies who have a tongue tie.
A tongue tie is when the skin which connects the tongue to the base of the mouth is too short; this restricts the movement of the tongue. There are some useful online resources that explain how this can have a negative effect on breastfeeding such as this Information from the Royal Women's Hospital, Victoria and Unicef's information for parents' on tongue tie.
Tongue tie can make breastfeeding uncomfortable for the mum and cause the baby to feed for a long time (in many cases, well over an hour a feed) as well as feed frequently. This is because a tongue tie may cause:
- an inefficient latch: the baby will then not be able to remove breastmilk efficiently and so will feed for extended times
- because of the poor latch, a baby will feed off the nipple - this causes pain to the mum (which can be intensely uncomfortable)
- this can then lead to a mum feeling negative about breastfeeding and even finding it difficult to bond with her baby
- the nipple may be misshapen after breastfeeding - this in turn makes getting a good latch more difficult, and the negative breastfeeding cycle continues
- if a baby is not able to drink enough breastmilk they will not put on weight as quickly as expected or may even start to lose weight
A tongue tie can be solved by a simple cut which is thought to cause little discomfort to the baby. It can be carried out in the home, by a trained professional, using sterile scissors. In other words, it is really quick and easy to solve!
It's important to note that not all tongue tied babies have problems breastfeeding. This is why it would be great to read your experiences here. How did your baby's tongue tie affect breastfeeding? Did you have any of the problems described above?
Both of the boys have had a tongue tie. With my first, it caused us incredible problems. He fed for hours and hours at a time and I was in a lot of pain and ready to give up. Once the tongue tie was diagnosed (at 3 weeks of age - an eternity when you are struggling as a new mum) and cut everything changed. I heard him glugging down the milk for the first time! With my second son, I had him checked straight away for a tongue tie - this was found shortly after birth. However, we have had absolutely no problems with feeding! So we didn't get it cut, and I tandem fed my two boys for some time and now mainly breastfeed just my youngest.
I look forward to reading your experiences of tongue tie and breastfeeding.

Hear It Here
:: first ::
"Ph4D3 70 9R3y"
:: Cue & Ey!ed* ::
[ as in: "Ey," the exclamation used to attract attention…ya naw mean? ]
[Clinty] So you do drag, huh? That's cute: a straight dude who cross-dresses. Very James Franco-for-Candy-Magazine.
[N△tty] I'm comfortable with the term drag because it was one of the earliest terms used to describe "Screw" music.
Oh, I've totally screwed to music. "The Fudge Punch" by Wiseblood gives some serious soundtrack, if you know what I mean. Got any faves that rev you up for a sesh of runp-wranglin', ol' nasty Nattymaster?
I really consider my only influences the dub pioneers: Robert Earl Davis (DJ Screw), and probably The Early Sheffield [ Cabaret Voltaire, The Future, etc. ] I've been a fan of Screw music since about 1998. Incidentally, I also listen to a lot of darker music; so of course when artists started blending the two I got very excited—especially since I'd been leaning in that direction already, [experimenting with drag remixes].
Now, hold on just a durn minute. Dark music? You mean that Kiss-The-Goat kindly stuff them anhk-wearin' P.I.B.s listen to?
image source: his dark nostalgia
Geraldo Riviera did a special about that whole…"scene"…a bunch a years ago. Yeah, I know me a thing or two about "dark music." Sure as shit, I do!
Basically, during the 90s, I toyed with the concept of being a working DJ. I was writing for the [L.A.] New Times and doing occasional dj gigs: mainly art openings and loft parties. These led to a short residence at The Parlour [club]. Back then — and still on my blog — I fuse[d] a number of sounds: disco, house, minimal synth, electro…all in the style of Ron Hardy and Larry Levan, who are still my mentors as a DJ [in addition to] the Cosmic DJs (Danielle Baladelli and Beppe Loda), who I didn't find out about [till] later. Oh—and as far as live DJs, I was really influenced by the Wicked crew out of San Francisco, and the Idjut Boys and Harvey.
[At any rate], this sound remains intact in my blog mixes. As a producer of tracks, I am really trying to do something more. I try not to get too high concept about it, but there's definitely a 'MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE' component to my music.
All-caps, huh? O I C. Hearkens back to the early 'Aughts when the phrase MASHUP was being spread around as insistent & insidious(ly) as a scabies outbreak from a strip-club's dressing room. Some remixes are just remixes, you know — but when they're really remixed, they get an extended title: complete with parentheses and clever little phrases signified by caps-lock. The most SRS of BSNS, maing.
:: experience . the inspiration :: via international download lovin', provided by Electrocasts ♡ ::
Never mind my obnoxious enthusiasm over A + D (ditto, their rump-shakin', world obliteratin', full-on overtakin'-the-gayme endeavor: Club Bootie), Girl Talk, & D.J. Raw-burt; matter of fact, consider this a rare instance in which I acknowledge —
[interrupts] I pretty much despire the term or concept of mash-up.
Oh, c'mon Natty! Sure, the term remains so frickin' mashed to this day that more often than not, it's denied a hyphen. But insofar as the act thereof? When it's done well, it's not just brilliant; shit's incandescent. Proof/pudding: Hawkins' xXx.
DJs have been blending and fusing styles from day one. The [categories] "disco" or "house," for example, were really blanket terms used to describe the music played in clubs.
Or not played. Someone much witter than I am described Witch House as "the genre for people who don't leave theirs." Unfortunately, I'm not even sharp enough to recall whom it was, nor where I read it. All the same —
Ron Hardy played a fusion of really gay disco, italo disco and new wave/synth…and later included minimal beat tracks created by his friends and club-goers.
'Really gay'? How do people respond to that? I mean, 'some of my best friends are' queers & flamboya feministing fagocytronics & everything — but HAPPY?! That's a 'lifestyle choice' I'm just not sure I can accept…
Well, I've been receiving really encouraging emails all along from artists. Gyratory System and Yellow Ostrich had contacted me about the 'post production' I did over their tracks, but my main introduction to the drag community actually was by way of a disagreement I had with GuMMy†Be▲R!

This prevents third-party certificates from getting mail relay permission with the permit_tls_all_clientcerts feature. Unfortunately this may cause compatibility problems with configurations that rely on certificate verification for other purposes. To get the old behavior, specify "tls_append_default_CA = yes".

Fix by Thomas Arnett. File: global/pipe_command.c. * Bugfix: the milter_header_checks parser provided only the actions that change the message flow (reject, filter, discard, redirect) but disabled the non-flow actions (warn, replace, prepend, ignore, dunno, ok).

This really doesn't impress my family. You have to pack the snowball "just right" or it will explode on deployment. When you do launch one, it just doesn't go very far or very fast like you might hope. Nothing can replace the good old arm!!!

Simple task - remove the front door cover to expose the cover for the control panel which is then also removed. Be sure electricity is disconnected from the appliance, then simply remove the old control board (remove the quick-connect wire harness) and slide the replacement board back in. Reconnect wiring harness, replace cover and door panel, then turn-on electricy. NOTE - I suggest you shut off power at the breaker panel vs. disconnected the direct wiring at the appliance. The reason for this is because the new controller board could be damaged in the process of connecting the wires and any sparking that would take place when working with hot wiring.

Following advice given on website by previous customers I was able to remove 6 tork screws and check the fuse which was okay. Proceeded to remove the control board and found significant burning on the bottom side. Ordered a new board online Sunday night, shipped Monday by two day Fed Ex, arrived Weds. morning and installed it in less than 10 minutes. Fair price, excellent service and shipping. Thank you and I would buy from you again.
The cycle select buttons on the top of the door worked and would light, however, the power button did not function and did not light. The faulty part ended up not being the control board but the control panel, which included the power button. I spent a good amount of time troubleshooting the problem until I figured this out. The part number was (8531257) Panel-cntl.
Upon replacing the circuit card I found that one of the connectors was burnt. I fixed the connector and installed the new card, but it itermittantly still does not work. I think that the micro switch may be defective.
I replaced the electronic control board,
First- unplug dishwasher.I replace the circuit board by removing the 6 top screws on the door, I needed to gain access to the inside of the door. unplugged the wiring harness, removed old board, replaced with new and connected the harness correctly, reattached the screws.Plugged the dishwasher back up to the power and it now works!
Disassembled the contal panel & replaced electronic controler, put it all back together & ran a cycle & it worked just great. Got rid of the ghost!!!! It hasn't come on by itself once since. .
Besides the circuit board I had to replace the keypad membrane but that meant getting the hole plastic cover. Turned off the power to the Dishwasher first then I removed the front door using the Torque Allen Wrench. From here it was simple enough to disconnect the electrical connections to the switch panel the control board and the door interlock switch. I used a small flat screwdriver to release the tabs holding the switch panel and control circuit board from the plastic cover. Put the switch panel into the new cover along with the control board and the interlock switch. Then reconnected the electrical connections and put everything back together. Put the door back onto the front of the unit and screwed it all together.Turned the power back on the started the dishwasher. Ran fine for the first load and stopped at the end. But the CLEAN light on the switch panel was blinking on and off and I could not get it to turn off and that was preventing me from restarting the dishwasher for another load. I called the help desk and looked on line for a possible cause. Finally someone told me to check the heater cause the CLEAN light flashing was an indication that there was a fault during the cycle and it holds the system in a lock out mode. Haven't had time to look into it any further so that's on my to do list. I reinstalled the original control board and just watch the timer and after an hour I turn it off.
After doing research, figured that it had to be the control board. Direction were fine, except that the screws holding the cover to the dishwasher had torx heads. Fortunately, I have a set of those.
Replaced control unit. Front panel now works so can pursue repair of water controls.
Lights were blinking and was unable to make cycle selection so I ordered this part based on KitchenAids reccommendation. Installed part and it did not work, pretty simple. All I did was removed the 6 screws, unplugged the harness, placed new control board and hooked up harness. But did not work so I'm looking for another solution. Just ordered the Thermal Fuse, so we'll see how that works out.
removed 7 screws from inside door removed old control board installed new control board put 7 screws tested dw all set

Artist Elizabeth DeMoss at SMWC Art Gallery
March 26th, 2014 | SMWC
Sculpture, photography, acrylic paint, graphic design – Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) senior graphic design major, Elizabeth DeMoss, has done it all. She introduced her designs to the public during an opening reception at the SMWC Art Gallery on March 19, 2014.
The exhibition, which will be on display through April 4, 2014, features DeMoss' work from a multitude of mediums. DeMoss, of Martinsville, Ind., states her inspiration not only came from her environment but also from her admiration of famous pieces.
"I especially like Salvador Dali and Edward Hopper," said DeMoss. "Although they are both painters, one creates more realistic pieces while the other is more whimsical. Their paintings are amazing."
DeMoss will graduate in May with a bachelor's degree in Art & Design. After graduating, her goal is to further her education toward a career in interior decorating and design.
"Elizabeth's exhibit shows her interest, as well as her ability, in a variety of mediums, including graphic design, photography, painting and ceramics. It is the perfect example of the blending of skills that the Art & Design major offers," states Rebecca Andrews, chair of the department of Text & Image at SMWC. "Elizabeth will be graduating from SMWC with the ability to conceptualize and then make her ideas a reality in the medium that is most appropriate."
The SMWC Art Gallery is located in Hulman Hall, room 130. Admission is free and open to the public. Regular Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. For more information, contact Rebecca Andrews by phone at 812-535-5141 or by email at .

Bergdahl deal could be first step to emptying Gitmo
President Obama released five Taliban leaders from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility on Saturday without consulting Congress and without strict assurances that the militants won't somehow return to the fight. Republicans on Capitol Hill worry that the swap of these Taliban leaders for American hostage Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is a prelude to a bigger move—the emptying out of Guantanamo entirely.
In his 2014 State of the Union address, Obama promised to shutter the prison built on Cuban soil by the end of the year. Obama now has seven months to fulfill his latest promise to shut down Guantanamo—or come as close to it as he can. During that time, Congress will be unable to prevent the release of the 149 prisoners still there.
"This whole deal may have been a test to see how far the administration can actually push it, and if Congress doesn't fight back they will feel more empowered to move forward with additional transfers," said one senior GOP senate aide close to the issue. "They've lined up all the dominoes to be able to move a lot more detainees out of Guantanamo and this could be just the beginning."
On Saturday, only three days after announcing the complete withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan by 2017, the White House revealed that it was releasing the Taliban commanders in exchange for Bergdahl. The law requires 30 days' advance Congressional notification before such a release from Guantanamo. But it was simply not workable in this case, White House officials, said; the soldier's health was failing, and the Qatari-brokered deal for the prisoner swap unfolded too quickly.
Lawmakers' surprise fueled their confusion and skepticism about the deal—especially since the on-again off-again negotiations for Bergdahl were an open secret, dating back years. GOP leaders, in particular, were offended that they received calls from their Democratic counterparts and administration officials only after Bergdahl's release was reported in the news.
Now there's growing concern on Capitol Hill that President Obama intends to bypass Congress to fulfill his promise to close the prison by releasing scores of more Guantanamo prisoners with little public or even private debate. Lawmakers and staffers see the Bergdahl case as only the latest maneuver in a larger plan to cut Congress out of the Guantanamo issue; and they're not exactly reassured by senior administration officials' refusal to disclose what steps will be taken to mitigate the risk that these prisoners could become involved again in the Afghan insurgency.
Of course, the Bergdahl case is a special one. Partially due to concern over Bergdahl's fate, Congress actually gave up a significant amount of oversight of Guantanamo releases last December by passing a defense policy bill that eased the burden on the administration before releasing prisoners. Now, it's just a simple Congressional notification. The law itself contains no enforcement measures and Obama even issued a signing statement at the time saying even the remaining restrictions violated his Constitutional prerogative.
(Candidate Obama pledged to do away with signing statements as an unconstitutional "end-run around Congress," but often in these matters, where you sit is where you stand.)
"The whole reason the administration ignores reporting requirements is because they know there is no consequence for ignoring them," the senior GOP senate aide said.
It's also true that the Obama administration has been steadily transferring Guantanamo prisoners to third countries for years, as the George W. Bush administration did before it. But the Bergdahl deal was the first major release under the new, looser restrictions and the five Taliban former prisoners were seen as some of the worst of the worst being held at the facility.
Despite outrage by several Republican leaders—including House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon and Senate Armed Services Committee Ranking Republican James Inhofe —about the release of the Taliban commanders, privately GOP offices admit that the deal is done. All they can do now is demand more transparency. But the GOP does intend to ramp up the fight over the larger issue of releasing the other 149 prisoners by taking trying to take some of their oversight authority back.
"At this point, I don't think Congress can do anything on his case. Nothing Congress is going to do is going to bring these guys back. But what this might lead to is tightening restrictions overall to make it harder for the administration to do this again," another senior GOP senate aide said.

**REMINDER -- ENROLL NOW FOR THE NEXT CHAT**FOS11 Chat Program Online Community Support GroupGrowth and Resilience: Integrating Loss in Our Journey of Healing
The path to healing from loss is different for each person. Some may be "moving forward" while others may feel the sense of being "left behind." However, Dr. Donna Gaffney notes in our recent Resource Newsletter that "…grieving may not be categorized or staged. Phases or stages suggest there is a prescribed, optimum way to work through the process. It also suggests a linear model where one can move forwards or backwards… Grief is a journey that begins with the loss. It takes many twists and turns but it does not disappear." How can we facilitate the process of healing in ourselves and others? How do we integrate loss in our lives in a way to grow and heal? Join us in our next chat for this discussion.

On Lulu's blog there's been a lot of talk about the "how" of marketing (Pinterest, Blogging, Twitter, writing a press release, video chat, etc.) but little focus on the "when," which is an equally important component of a successful book marketing campaign.
Here are some general guidelines you can follow compiled in a simple marketing timeline to help you plan:
10–12 weeks out: Do your research. Find appropriate blogs and media outlets that might want to review your book and compile a list of media contacts. Come up with a list of friends who can help spread the announcement of your publication and ask each one personally for support. When you reach out to contacts, offer them a free copy of your book and ask for pre-publication quotes to be used in your book's detail page at various online retailers.
*Expert tip: Make the first chapter of your book available for free for anyone who might want to review your book or include it in a news article. You can do this by creating a free eBook on Lulu.com that includes just the first chapter of your book as well as contact details for press inquiries.
8–10 weeks out: Draft your press release and any announcement emails you're planning on sending out.

I still don't think it's going to create as long of a line as the iPad 2. I just don't feel that same need it or gotta have mentality with this one as it did with the iPhone 4.
I hate to say it but Steve's passing away will have increased sales.I didn't want iPhone 4S but after seeing how much I miss Steve when I didn't even personally know him makes me think i should get the phone as dual cores, 8mp camera n Siri will be sweet.
Apple knew this all along, that is why they didn't give a rat's a** about how "disappointing" some people felt about the launch..
Yes I a little disipointment that apple came back with the same model, but like my self I like to keep that tradision going sent the first to the last iphone apple and AT&T will get reacher in my account ( the only iPhone I sleep was the 3GS didn't fell the need of that phone) beside they can complaint all they want ones you own one iPhone is not turning back I have friend they live the iPhone for android and there back to the iPhone. I love my iPhone and I always will. (still have all 3 model won't sale them for nothing at this moment I use them all in my house or my car)
Im not surprised to hear that sales are still through the roof. Doesn't everyone remember when the iPad was hated on for just being a huge iPod... but those sales broke records. Personally I was disappointed about the 4s because I liked the tear drop design floating around the internet, but I've never actually owned an iPhone so I'm not going to wait another year just to get the design I want.
These initial sales are from all the people that will buy anything that Apple sells no matter what it is or what it cost. Since the 4s is a lame upgrade, the sales will taper off after all the Apple fanatics get their orders in. I believe Apple knows that they have created a cult like following and didn't need to come out with the iPhone 5 right now. They know the 4s is lame but they don't care because they know millions will still buy it.
Anyhow, this will be the first time I won't be upgrading. I just didn't feel compelled to reaching into my pocket and dishing out cash for something I probably won't even use IMO. I'm just not looking forward to tasting my foot.
This is another typical example of how blogs, newspapers, tech analysts, and general outsiders can be way off base with their assumptions and opinions. This is a great upgrade for the phone, contracts for 3GSs are coming due, and more carriers are offering it.
Of course they will have extra sells of this. This is the first time 3 carriers have launched the same iPhone at the same time correct, plus it is new to Sprint. Also the death of an American Icon will help with the sales. I am sticking with the iPhone 4 for awhile longer.
"Apple last year saw 600,000 iPhone 4 preorders in the first day across all carriers and five countries"
Except last year, 600,000 was all the pre-orders available and AT&T's activation servers were hit so hard, so many people were never able to place their order. I remember waking up early in the morning and trying all day, finally being able to get my order placed around 4pm. Not even an hour after that, pre-orders were sold out.
200,000 is still impressive, but you can't compare it to the iPhone 4, which still had delays months after it started selling.
Like he said, with the problems pre-ordering online last time and then figure in the fact that the White one wasn't available, so numerous people waited for it, thinking it would only be a month away. I'll bet that 600,000 would have been closer to 800/900k the first day if the servers and white phones were prepared. Like also mentioned, if 200,000 people all go buy one the first day, then nobody does after that; how great of a sales record will it then have? There will always be people that want the new product on the day of release, there aren't always thousands left wanting it.
I covered this in another thread, but I thought that it might still apply. Apple is playing this game intelligently and intuitively. iOS has fallen behind as the major mobile OS market share. Android OS has 3 times the manufacturers since Apple only manufactures 3 current models. They are driving on Apple Fans and cult followers to encourage other peeps to maintain or change to something better, stable, and enjoyable. I'm not the least bit concerned that there are other devices with power and diversity. I'm more into the experience and enjoyment .. something that doubles with jailbreaks. I'm happy to see that Apple's fan-base is much larger than previous releases IMHO.
Let's not forget that iPhone 5 can still be a possibility 6 to 9 months from now.
My prayers go to Steve Jobs family and friends. The pioneer of tomorrow's future.
I can't wait to see additional reports with numbers from additional carriers and locations - it will be exciting to sit down and do a comparison.

A disappointing Experience

I bought this for a legally blind person who found it did not correspond to the 3X magnification of her handheld device bought through the Canadian Institute of the Blind.

Who wouldn't love to have an improving offensive line and running back Jamaal Charles at his disposal? That must have been part of the logic behind Andy Reid's interest in joining the Kansas City Chiefs with a five-year deal. No other assistant coaching decisions have been made at this time. The Chiefs are also without a general manager after parting ways with Scott Pioli. This move could also sway Dwayne Bowe to stick around since he was looking for a way out.
Fantasy Analysis:
Reid has a nice foundation to build upon on offense. The big question mark is at quarterback. Matt Cassel struggled and could not stay healthy. Brady Quinn is a viable backup, but nothing more. Ricky Stanzi isn't likely to stick as a third-stringer unless Reid really likes him. So who's next? Kansas City has not drafted a quarterback in the first round since 1983, which was a great year for quarterbacks, not including the Chiefs' pick, Todd Blackledge. It's the beginning of a new era.

It depends on what type or recipe you are using the shortening in. In many cases, you can substitute butter for shortening in baked goods, but the finished cake, muffin or cookie, will have a slightly different texture. Most people won't see any difference, though. In icing, butter can be used in place of shortening but the icing will be slightly more yellow.

Electioneering is well under way as councillors and candidates want our votes on May 22.
One bemused resident in Meols received a letter from Eddie Boult, Conservative candidate for the area, sending her a personal note to thank her for "the warm reception he had received when canvassing in the ward."
But she has never met this Boult from the Blue.
And she is certainly not of his political persuasion.
So that was rather strange, wasn't it?
I also read a missive from a local Labour candidate with the slogan "Putting Wirral before Westminster."
Surely "Working with Westminster" would be the best motto?
Granted, issues such as fracking and dealing with dog-fouling are admirable causes.
And yet there are bigger and more immediate problems: I would like all our politicians to look at the state of the Jobcentre Plus system.
Now that jobseekers have to sign on every weekday, it is unfair that they have to pay their own travelling expenses out of their meagre allowance.
This system should be fairer for those who simply cannot afford a hefty outlay in fares.

While Liverpool and Everton look forward to European football in one form or another, it was extremely sad to see footballing neighbours Tranmere Rovers relegated on Saturday.
They have faced tremendous problems on and off the field this year, and their exit from League One left players and fans alike devastated.
It was good to see their loyal supporters consoling the tearful players on the pitch.
With so much emotion, fight and dignity displayed, they deserve to go straight back up.
*** *** ***
Where has the time gone?
It was 30 years ago this month that saw a two-day ground-breaking TV show called "New Brighton Rocks" - specially filmed by Granada at the resort's open air swimming pool.
Headliners Frankie Goes to Hollywood say the 1984 festival was one of the many highlights of their career.
They appeared with Madness, Gloria Gaynor and Spandau Ballet.
Brian "Nasher" Nash of the band says it was a fantastic gig for for him and the rest of the group who enjoyed three number one hit singles in the 80s.
Nasher - a headline performer at our Wirral Golden Globe Awards - says it was "Frankiemania."
The band, who had travelled the world, relished going back home: "It was like a Frankie homecoming gig for us," Nasher told the Inferno.
"We had spent a lot of time down in London and were feeling homesick.
"I remember it being the first time we experienced teenagers screaming at us.
"During the soundcheck we were walking along the roof – out of sight- and then popping our heads over the top at various points and being greeted by hundreds of screamers - like scenes from early Beatles footage.
"A great memory of Wirral for all of us."
Isn't it time we had another New Brighton Rocks?
It would a great showpiece for our revitalised resort.
*** *** ***
This a rum do…sales of the book Jamaica Inn are on the increase, thanks to the telly drama - but I suspect it's only to find out what the characters are actually saying.
I found the series' equally bad lighting kept me in the dark.
But the mumbling dialogue was unforgivable.
They should provide subtitles.
Which reminds me of a tale relayed to me by Craig Charles on a trip to New York.
He entered a bar where his show Red Dwarf was on the television - and was taken aback to see his character was given subtitles because native New Yorkers couldn't understand his Scouse accent.
*** *** ***
And finally...I recall the late, great Screaming Lord Sutch when he was standing for the Monster Raving Looney Party and I asked him for an interview.
Yes, the crazy pop star replied, as long as I paid him in tomatoes.
He was politically incorrect and mad as a hatter, but he made general elections fun.

Researching Creations: Applying Arts-Based Research to Bedouin Women's Drawings
In this article, the author examines the combination of arts-based research and art therapy within Bedouin women's empowerment groups. The art fulfills a double role within the group of both helping to illuminate the women's self-defined concerns and goals, and simultaneously enriching and moving these goals forward. This creates a research tool that adheres to the feminist principles of finding new ways to learn from lower income women from a different culture, together with creating a research context that is of direct potential benefit and enrichment for the women. The author, through examples of the use of art within lower income Bedouin women's groups, examines the theoretical connection between arts-based research and art therapy, two areas that often overlap but whose connection has not been addressed theoretically.

Garth Brooks to play new music during 2014 tour
Listen to Garth Brooks on iHeartRadio
Garth Brooks isn't just busy planning his upcoming tour. He's also working on new material. The country superstar said in a recent radio interview that his shows will feature "the stuff you know Garth from and all the new stuff that's coming."
He adds that there are no words to convey just how excited he is to be bringing fresh music to the stage on a new tour, and he hopes his fans enjoy the new songs as much as his hits. However, he doesn't say if or when a new album might be on the way.
Brooks also says his tour announcement really was spontaneous. He unveiled his plans unexpectedly during a recent appearance on "Good Morning America" to promote his new box set. Garth explains that it just felt like the right moment. He adds that revealing his plans gave him a huge sense of relief - along with concerns that he'd just made a big mistake. Garth says he immediately looked over to his publicist, Nancy, who was there off-camera, and was thrilled to see she was "just glowing."
Dates for Brooks' 2014 world tour haven't been announced yet.

Hunger Strikes and Miracle Jelly Beans: The 10 Craziest Moments of Royal Wedding Frenzy Yet
As the clock ticks down to Will and Kate's big day, we present a roundup of some of the wackiest moments of the ensuing madness. Will and Kate manicure, anyone?
-April Daniels Hussar
|This exclusive scoop is brought to you by Diet Pepsi. Get the Skinny on the Royal Wedding by liking us at http://www.facebook.com/dietpepsi
Over 2 billion people are expected to tune in to the Royal Wedding, and the world is eagerly hanging on every detail surrounding the big event (Beer banned from the reception! 10,000 canapés ordered! David Beckham will indeed attend!), and we can't even imagine the media frenzy that will ensue when Kate Middleton's wedding dress designer is finally revealed! Speaking of frenzy, at the time of this writing, a Google search for "Royal Wedding Frenzy" returns 1,650,000 results … here are 10 of our favorite moments of madness so far.
1. The Miraculous Jelly Bean.
Wesley Hosie, 25, said he was digging into a stash of jelly beans from The Jelly Bean Factory with his girlfriend Jessica White when … suddenly … a vision of Kate Middleton appeared amongst the myriad flavors!
"As Jessica opened the jar, I saw her immediately," Hosie told The Daily Telegraph of Kate's jelly bean doppleganger (mango-flavored, if you must know). "She was literally lying there staring back at me."
And what a vision it was … the newspaper describes the sweet treat thus: "The bean, of red and gold, has an opalescent beauty, like some piece of ancient amber."
And where is the miraculous, opalescent thing of beauty headed next? Why, eBay, of course! Starting bid? £500.
Read Kate Middleton, Royalty's Freshest Fashion Icon:
7 Looks & Trends We Love!
2. This AP Headline: "Mexican Hunger-Striker Wins a Royal Wedding Trip"
MEXICO CITY – A fairy tale has come true for a poor Mexican teenager who spent 16 days on a hunger strike hoping to wrangle an invitation to Britain's royal wedding. Touched by her attempt, a good Samaritan put up the airfare to London, where she hopes to at least watch the festivities from outside Westminster Abbey. (Via Shine.Yahoo)
Words fail.
3. Even Reese Witherspoon has Royal Wedding Mania!
Reese Witherspoon confessed to Ellen Degeneres that she actually invited Will and Kate to her wedding in hopes that they'd return the favor. Then Reese told Ellen she was more excited about the Royal Big Day than her own recent nuptials. No offence, Jim Toth!
4. There's an app for that.
According to the Washington Post, there are now 20 apps available for the Royal Wedding Obsessed. Some of the best: The HELLO! magazine app (complete with "a timeline of the couple's love story"), the Alarm Royale ("Royal Wedding Alarm Clock, Facts & Countdown Timer!" ) and of course, the one where you can dress Prince William in a wedding gown.
5. Butter London's "No More Waity, Katie" nail polish … and lip gloss!
There's a plethora of Will and Kate merchandise, but my personal favorite is this lovely set from Butter London that pay homage to Kate Middleton's long "wait" for her prince to pop the question. The nail polish is "a soft, elegant greige shade with a splash of glitter" and the gloss? "A soft, sheer lavender … with tiny flecks of lilac glitter. Makes lips look noticeably fuller and the gloss griege finish is utterly unique."
Too true!
Of course, if "greige" is a little understated for you, you could always get a set of William and Kate nail decals…

This Valentine's Day, Treat Yo Self
Each Valentine's Day I can count on one thing: a bouquet of flowers from my mom. This bouquet used to make me feel lame, lonely, not loved in any "real" romantic, non-mommy way. As a feminist I have always wrestled with the significance of Valentine's Day in my life, not just because it's a commercial holiday based on consumerism and patriarchal customs, but because the day has never made me feel good or loved.
I did some quick research into the history of Valentine's Day and it turns out that the day now associated with chocolate and roses dates back to the 5th century. The Roman holiday Lupercalia consisted of men sacrificing a goat and dog, then whipping women with the hides of animals they had slaughtered because they …

Leading up to SXSW, we'll be doing Data Stories with SXSW presenters starting with Director of Product of MutualMind, Eric Swayne, who is speaking on "Scientist to Storyteller: How to Narrate Data." (Gnip is hosting a SXSW event for those involved in social data, email email@example.com for an invite that goes out in a month or so.)
1. In your SXSW session, you're going to talk about being more than a "data janitor." What do you mean by this?
Data Janitor is a term that resonates with many Analysts currently, as they're basically being used for maintaining the facilities: scrubbing data sources, pushing data into prescribed buckets, rolling out the same reports because they're the reports "we've always done." These are still important, but we have to aspire to more. People that live in data analysis have the crucial opportunity for extracting meaning that transforms businesses through data-driven decisions, and it takes much more than just pushing out the monthly graphs and charts.
2. How important is visualization to good data narration?
Great data visualizations put incredibly powerful tools in the hands of Data Narrators that enable them to tell better stories, as well as extract insights from incomprehensible data sets. However, it's critical not to confuse the visualization WITH the insight – they are distinctly separate, and not necessarily dependent upon each other. A simple pie chart that tells a CEO exactly what they need to know to make a good decision isn't any visual tour de force, but it clearly gets the job done. In all cases, visualizations should serve the story: the string of insights that lead to data-driven decisions. When a good picture makes a good idea stick, that's when you know the Data Narrator has done their job.
3. What are the trademarks of good data narration?
You'll often see three key hallmarks:
1. True Insights – An insight tells me something I don't know, that I need to know, and that I can do something about. If the data story doesn't include these three elements, it's factual or irrelevant, not insightful.
2. User-Centric Approach – Human Interface Design isn't just for UX professionals – Analysts need to become more adept at its principles as well. Everything we say in a report or dashboard through form, color, size or spatial relationships carries meaning – whether we intended it to or not. Data Narrators not only understand their story but also their audience: what they're used to seeing, how they might be biased against certain ideas, and what assumptions they're making based on what they see and hear.
3. Idea Inception – I would call this "stickiness", but we have a much better term for it now, thanks to Christopher Nolan and Leo DeCaprio! Work from great Data Narrators shows an intent to focus the audience on an idea, and make sure they remember it. Data Narrators often focus not on the meeting where they present their work, but the NEXT meeting their audience is having, and whether they remember what was said and use it.
4. When marketers misinterpret data, what are the ramifications that you see?
Of course the ultimate impact of misinterpreted data is bad decisions, but it usually starts by creating bad stories. Urban legends pervade businesses just like any other culture, and they often sound enough like real data that they're not questioned. "Our site visitors click on blue more often," "We've never had a good Q4 for product X," "Twitter hasn't driven sales for us like Facebook," and on and on. These "data-ish" stories are particularly insidious because they're often unquestioned assumptions, and voices that seek to pick them apart are often quashed as trying to "rock the boat." Storytelling isn't just a tool to be used for good or ill – it's the default processing protocol for human brains. Where good, data-driven stories are NOT created, it leaves a vacuum that others will fill with whatever they remember.
5. What are your data pet peeves? What is the data equivalent of driving slow in the fast lane?
- Confusing correlation with causation. I know, I know, we say this maxim so many times it should be the Data Scientist's Golden Rule. But the fact is that it's tremendously hard for humans to avoid this trap, particularly when correlations appear to validate the opinions we already have. This is why it's incredibly important for us to question each others' assumptions, and to be open to ours being questioned.
- "Perfect" data. When charts show a straight line, or scatterplots neatly cluster, or r^2 results are incredibly high, I get suspicious. Nothing in nature is perfect, particularly when humans are involved – the reality is that while many of our behaviors can be consistent, they aren't absolute. It's incredibly important that we use analytics and statistics to tell the story that the data tells us, not the one we want to say.
- Trophy numbers. When I start a new client engagement, I like to ask them what their Trophy Numbers are. These are the stats and figures that are used to report upwards (and often justify jobs), but that we know have no inherent value. Pageviews, Hits, Impressions, Potential Reach, and Asset Views are all often found in this category. While these may be good symptoms of success, they almost always aren't the way your business wins in the world. Data Narrators don't ignore these, but rather they lead clients on a journey from here to better KPIs that indicate real business success.
