While there are many claims such as Germany, Chicago, and Connecticut as to where the hot dog capital of the world is, there is strong evidence that New Jersey can claim it is the "hot dog capital of the world".
If not all of New Jersey, than certainly northeast New Jersey which has claim to the origin of several popular versions of the hot dog and home to some of the top hot dog manufactures in the country.
With all the hoopla about New Jersey hot dogs, it should be noted that south of the Raritan River in Central and South Jersey, there is a significant drop in the quality and popularity of hot dogs. This may also be a strong argument for northeast Jersey being the "hot dog capital of the world".
While the hot dog (frankfurter) was created in Germany, North Jersey has a long history of creating three of the most popular types of hot dogs consumed in the world --- the "Hot Texas Weiner", the "Italian Hot Dog", and the "Ripper". With the popularity of these hot dogs and other hot dog versions, New Jersey can make a legitimate claim to being the current hot dog capital 0f the world.
Its hard to find a region that has more variations of the hot dog than New Jersey
Despite the opinions expressed by Texans, there is a strong school of thought that claims the "Hot Texas Weiner" -- a chili dog -- was created and made famous in Paterson, NJ. This began in 1924 when a hot dog stand was opened and run by a Greek man in downtown Paterson. The name of the hot stand still remains a mystery. However, in 1936 a former employee of this Greek hot dog stand left and opened Pappas Lunch, later called Libby's Hot Grill, and has since become Libby's Lunch which is still in operation under different ownership. Since it's beginning, a number of former employees of Libby's left to open other Hot Dog stands in Paterson. One of them, the Falls View Grill opened in 1949 and carved out a reputation for serving an excellent Texas Weiner. The "original" Falls View Grill closed sometime in the eighties. Former employees of The Falls View Grill have also moved on to open their own "Hot Dog Stands" including The Colonial Grill on Chamberlain Avenue in Paterson, and the Hot Grill on Lexington Avenue in nearby Clifton.
The Italian Hot Dog was created by Jimmy Buff's more than 75 years ago in Newark and continues to remain a North Jersey favorite. Some claim it's the water in North Jersey, others claim that there just hasn't been any Italian Hot Dog restaurant former employees that have ventured south of the Raritan River.
The Italian Hot Dog is made from large loaves of pizza bread, cut into quarters, sliced down the middle, and stuffed with one or two deep fried hot dogs, topped with onions, peppers, and deep fried potatoes. The soft pizza bread is a perfect vehicle for the ingredients, holding everything together and soaking up some of the grease. If you're not from North Jersey, don't make the cardinal sin of adding ketchup to the Italian hot dog -- it destroys the true flavor of the Italian hot dog. Ketchup contains sugar and other ingredients that overwhelms the flavor of the hot dog.
The ripper was created in Clifton, NJ in 1928 by Royal Rutt, of Rutt's Hutt. The ripper is a pork and beef hot dog that's deep-fried in fat at a temperature of 310 degrees --- until it splits apart.
Best's Hot Dogs made by Best Provisions in Newark, is one of the country's top manufacturers of hot dogs. They are gluten free beef franks made with natural spices that are blended, linked, and naturally smoked.
Sabrett Hot Dogs, known for their all beef natural casing and skinless hot dogs are manufactured in New Jersey. Sabrett hot dogs are often referred to as "dirty water dogs" because they are cooked in hot water.
Thumann's Hot Dogs are manufactured in Carlstadt, NJ and makes natural casing pork and beef franks.

Those of us with mortgages – and this is the biggest debt most people will take on – should realise that the management of it is very important. There is a whole range of types of mortgage - if your income is relatively low and you want the security and certainty of knowing what your out-goings will be each month then a fixed-rate mortgage is a good thing for you - you will pay a bit more per month for the security it brings. Every two or three years I review my mortgage and change according to my circumstances. I would recommend that you take out a mortgage with a 'mutual society' rather than a bank. This is because they are not making profits for shareholders but for their members and so they give better interest rates.
In recent years in this current economic era new mortgage borrowers have found that the size of the deposit/down-payment required from them has increased and so it has become more demanding financially. You need to review your mortgage arrangements regularly and move or consider moving regularly. There are comparison websites you can look at, or mortgage advisors you can talk to, who will give you current information on this.
Many people do not realise that if you can over-pay on your monthly mortgage payments, even by a few pounds, it will make a massive difference in later years. This is allowed to a certain extent by the terms of most repayment mortgages, other types (e.g. endowment mortgages) may not let you do this. If you can't manage, say, an extra £25 a month, then consider rounding up your monthly payment to the nearest £10. Done early on in the life of a mortgage, even this small move could save you two or three years of payments at the end of your mortgage term!
Another thing to consider is to shorten the term of your mortgage. This will mean you pay more per month over fewer years. Mortgages of 25 years were the standard that was set up because there were no computers to work out all the different payment options for shorter-term mortgages - it can all be calculated very quickly now. And make sure that your interest rate is calculated on a daily basis rather than an annual interest rate – that will also make a massive difference.

Hungary have dispensed with the services of coach Attila Pinter after less than a year in charge of the national side.
Pinter was appointed as Sandor Egervari's successor in December after Hungary missed out on qualifying for the World Cup play-offs.
Former Hungary international Pinter took charge of five games in total during his reign and won only twice - friendly wins over Albania and Kazakhstan in June.
However, his only competitive international in charge ended in a 2-1 Euro 2016 qualifying defeat to Northern Ireland in Budapest earlier this month.
Goals in the final 10 minutes from Niall McGinn and Kyle Lafferty sent the visitors home with the three points in what proved to be Pinter's final game in charge.
Former Hungary international Pal Dardai will take over on an interim basis for the remainder of the year, taking charge of qualifers against Romania, the Faroe Islands and Finland.
Dardai, 38, currently helps to coach youth teams at Bundeslia side Hertha Berlin.

"substantial limitations which will help prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon". Iran agreed to give better access to inspectors and halt some of its work on uranium enrichment. President Hassan Rouhani said the deal recognised Iran's nuclear "rights". But he repeated, in a nationwide broadcast, that his country would never seek a nuclear weapon. Tehran denies repeated claims by Western governments that it is seeking to develop nuclear weapons.
It insists it must be allowed to enrich uranium to use in power stations. Continue reading the main story Analysis image of James Reynolds James Reynolds BBC Iran correspondent The first announcement of the most important agreement between Iran and the West in more than a decade was made on Twitter.
Shortly before three in the morning in Geneva, the EU posted: "We have reached agreement between the E3+3 and Iran." Minutes later, Iran's chief negotiator, Mohammad Javad Zarif followed: "We have reached an agreement." The immediate origins of this deal date to 14 June 2013, when Hassan Rouhani was elected president of Iran. Mr Rouhani promised to end his country's repeated confrontations with the outside world, beginning with the argument over its nuclear programme.
To bring about a deal, Mr Rouhani pursued two key policies. Firstly, he secured the public backing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei for his diplomatic efforts. Secondly, the new president and his foreign minister broke precedent and pursued direct high-level contact with Iran's long time enemy, the US.
If there is to be a lasting nuclear agreement, it may spring from a reconciliation between these two countries. The deal comes just months after Iran elected Mr Rouhani - regarded as a relative moderate - as its new president, in place of the hard-line Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. It has also been backed by Iran's Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. After four days of negotiations, representatives of the so-called P5+1 group of nations - the US, the UK, Russia, China, France and Germany - reached an agreement with Iran in the early hours of Sunday.
The specifics of the deal have yet to be released, but negotiators indicated the broad outlines: Iran will stop enriching uranium beyond 5%, the level at which it can be used for weapons research, and reduce its stockpile of uranium enriched beyond this point Iran will give greater access to inspectors including daily access at Natanz and Fordo nuclear sites In return, there will be no new nuclear-related sanctions for six months Iran will also receive sanctions relief worth about $7bn (£4.3bn) on sectors including precious metals US Secretary of State John Kerry said the agreement would make the region safer for its allies, including Israel.
But the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his cabinet it was a "historic mistake" and that his country reserved the right to defend itself. "Today the world became a much more dangerous place because the most dangerous regime in the world made a significant step in obtaining the most dangerous weapons in the world," he said. At a later news conference, Mr Netanyahu said Israel would not be bound by the agreement. "We cannot and will not allow a regime that calls for the destruction of Israel to obtain the means to achieve this goal. "Israel has many friends and allies, but when they're mistaken, its my duty to speak out." The Israeli comments came as it was revealed that the US and Iran had held a series of face-to-face talks over the past year that were kept secret even from their allies. Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said it was an opportunity for the "removal of any doubts about the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear programme".
President Hassan Rouhani said the deal recognised Iran's nuclear "rights" But he insisted that Iran had not given up its right to enrich uranium. "We believe that the current agreement, the current plan of action as we call it, in two distinct places has a very clear reference to the fact that Iranian enrichment programme will continue and will be a part of any agreement, now and in the future," he said. The US denied any such right had been conceded, while UK Foreign Secretary William Hague said the agreement was "good news for the whole world".
'Significant agreement' The US state department gave more details of the deal, insisting that most sanctions would remain in place. Restrictions on Iran's petrochemical exports and some other sectors would be suspended, bringing in $1.5bn in revenue. Obama: "Agreed to provide Iran with modest relief" But Mr Obama warned that if Iran fail to keep its commitments, "we will turn off the relief and ratchet up the pressure".
This deal may be the most significant agreement between the world powers and Iran for a decade, says the BBC's James Reynolds in Geneva. Negotiators had been working since Wednesday to reach an agreement that was acceptable to both sides. As hopes of a deal grew stronger, foreign ministers of the P5+1 joined them in Geneva. But it only became clear that a breakthrough had been made in Geneva shortly before 03:00 local time (02:00 GMT) on Sunday.

University lauded for environmental efforts
22, 2010 -- SF State has been recognized by The Princeton Review as one of the nation's top 286 environmentally-responsible colleges and universities.
The University is listed in "The Princeton Review's Guide to 286 Green Colleges," which recognizes institutions that have demonstrated a dedication to sustainability in infrastructure, activities and initiatives.
In the rankings, SF State was recognized for a variety of environmental activities, including: a wide selection of degree offerings related to sustainability, research opportunities available at the Romberg Tiburon Center and surrounding wetlands, as well as campus-wide composting activities and efforts to encourage biking.
The rankings were developed through a partnership with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and examined universities based on each institution's commitment to building certification using USGBC's LEED green building certification program; environmental literacy programs; formal sustainability committees; use of renewable energy resources and recycling and conservation programs among others.
SF State's efforts have already yielded significant results. A recent greenhouse gas survey found the University has reduced greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 rates. The University has launched new sustainability initiatives including: reducing energy and water usage, increasing waste diversion, creating more alternative transportation options, offering sustainable dining choices, implementing green cleaning, purchasing environmentally preferred products and planting native species.
"SF State is institutionalizing sustainability through a concerted campus-wide effort," said Caitlin Steele, sustainability programs manager. "Our inclusion in the Princeton Review list of green schools is a testament to the sustainability work of the students, faculty and staff."
SF State founded its Campus Sustainability Committee in fall 2008. The committee works with faculty, students, staff and administrators to stimulate discussion and ideas to facilitate the adoption of practices, policies and projects designed to improve the environmental, social and economic sustainability of the campus community.

I have been trying to wrap my brain around this one for an RTS style game.
I have considered some different options and all really not making much sense to me so I figured
I would throw my ideas at you wrong as they may be.
Hopefully some better ideas come out and give me a good point to start at.
Idea #1 (really not what I hope to do) Draw the green health bar above my unit sprite's but
have 100 frames and then use code to determine what % of 100 of the units total hps are at
any given time then simply have that display that frame of the animation. The reason this is
such a terrible idea is because once I go from stationary sprites to sprites with a full movement
of animation I would need such a huge amount of 100 frames per frame of animation that it makes
my head hurt.
Idea #2 Create a healthbar type of sprite and somehow have it follow my individual unit -- use the 100 frame animation for it based off of the percentage of total hps like my previous idea. This might be going about it at an incredibly non optimal way but it *would* work -- but my problem next would be having that sprite work for each individual unit? Or would changing the animation for it change it for all of the copies of the healthbar sprite. I could evolve the idea to create as many health bars as allowable units in the game so that they all have their individual health bar need in accordance to the unit that spawned by maybe using variables.
I know someone is prob gonna post .. "bro wow, no... just simply do this and BAM done" and if someone does post that, great!
Any suggestions would be very helpful, thank you.
Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.
bro wow, no... just simply use two sprites in a container with the unit, moving them every frame to a position relative to that unit: bar background and bar progress, set the hotspot to the left side and set the width of the bar progress sprite to originalsize*(health/maxhealth)and BAM done

Can anyone send me some contact info for Asset Acceptance? I have tried writing them... now, I'd really like an email or fax number.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
I don't have any contact information for you but please be very careful with Asset. I've heard horror stories about what absolute scum these people are
Thanks. Yeah, I know.. they suck. I got so tired of trying to PFD with them that I PIF. I was hoping since they gave me so much greif about the PFD, if I actually paid them in full and write a GW, they would be nicer. But, I realize they haven't been. I found a fax number for them, but they don't respond to them. ha.
So, I guess maybe I will send them a certified GW letter every day for a month, or until I at least hear something!! I've cleaned up EVERYTHING on my credit, this is the absolute last company left.. and obviously, I saved the worst for last! they are soooo hateful and do not care about anything, even when they get their money!
Please do not call anyone at Asset as suggested below. They record phone conversations. I had a dealing with them...not good...long story. Keep it to email or regular mail. IME, the worst.
I would not even provide you with who I contacted because it would not do you or anyone else a bit of good since i got the run around and they did NOT honor the PFD agreement, until I had to take other measures....
thank you soooo much for the advice.
I kinda had a feeling hubbo would be stuck with those 2 asset accounts. At least they do show PIF.. so, thats better than nothing. They were the absolute worst to deal with so far. I made the mistake of calling them first.... then i realized they must hire the most miserable people ever.
Now maybe I can work on WFNNB and perhaps get THEM taken off. Every little bit counts, right?
Thanks again
I appreciate everyones help!
Did you ever have success with Asset? I had WFNNB delete the derog from my account.. piece of cake. Asset on the otherhand.. letter to the CEO, two snail mail letters and still no luck.
Dont waste the CMRRR additional postage for a GW letter.
They are under no obligation to do anything with it. Proof of date of receipt is really meaningless,when they can just chuck it in the trashcan..
Just do a single first class stamp.

Is it possible that Bryce Harper is somehow underrated? He's eighteen years old. Sure, it's only 111 at-bats, but he could go into a slump of epic proportions and still match the numbers put up by some of the best age-18 seasons of all time. For instance, in 1994, Alex Rodriguez was in a similar situation to Harper, having been the first pick in the draft the summer prior and making his debut in a full-season league at 18. ... Even after you account for the slightly lower offensive environment of the Midwest League in 1994 (average OPS of .710 versus .737 for the 2011 South Atlantic League), Harper's performance is blowing away what Rodriguez did in Appleton.

Stealing the show for the Brian Dawkins-led workouts in Colorado was Kyle Orton. [Orton] was trying to get through his passing workout without showing off. Orton, who is the Broncos' starting quarterback today, but with no guarantee for tomorrow, arrived before the team's player-supervised workout Thursday, as he did Tuesday, at the South Suburban Sports Dome to throw passes to wide receiver Eric Decker and tight end Dan Gronkowski. Even though it's May, and even though Orton was throwing to uncovered receivers, his arm, footwork, release and accuracy appear to be ready for a game. ...

Sizemore injured the knee during a slide into second base Tuesday night. An MRI exam Wednesday revealed no structural damage. Sizemore is listed as day to day. "It's just painful right now," he said in the postgame clubhouse. "I really don't know how else to describe it." Sizemore spent Wednesday and Thursday receiving primarily ice and pool treatments. "We wanted to stay off it for at least two days," he said. "I'll come in [today] and see how it feels." (Plain Dealer) Comment

The British Fashion Council's (BFC) livestream of 46 catwalk shows from London Fashion Week resulted in a 100% increase in viewers year on year, indicating the growing demand from an online audience for real time fashion events.
Powered by Rightster, the shows were accessible via the BFC's YouTube channel, the London Fashion Week TV site, as well as delivered to designer and publisher Facebook communities for the first time - including the Roksanda Ilincic and Vogue pages.
The shows were also distributed to over 100 broadcast, online and mobile publishers worldwide, with sites such as Elle, Grazia and the Telegraph carrying live and on-demand video from the events.
Plus, this year the content was placed onto tablet devices for the first time via the Times's iPad app.
BFC CEO Caroline Rush said the organisation launched its digital strategy in 2009 to harness technology and creativity to promote British designers to a global audience.
Each season we look for new ways to unite fashion and digital innovation. With London playing such a key role on the world stage this year, we are pleased to meet the demand from a worldwide audience for London Fashion Week content."
This wasn't simply about views though, since the content was also monetised via integration with various advertising solutions, media agencies and brands.
Particularly clever was a feature that allowed editors to have control over when ads were triggered, so that audiences weren't shown brand messages when the shows were running – but allowed them to 'pad out' a stream if a show was running late.
Last month fashion PR and production agency KCD Worldwide announced that it would be launching a digital fashion show service to make life easier for time-crunched reporters and editors.
Positioned as an alternative to runway and presentation formats, these are accessible by invitation only, with a password required to gain entry. The livestreamed shows include runway footage, interviews with designers and cost between $150,000 to $300,000.
Reaction to KCD's offering has been mixed, Vogue's Ella Alexander said that: "in one camp, a catwalk show is the ultimate branding tool and, in the other, are a costly and stressful prerequisite that would be far better reimagined online."
While KCD's service is most definitely intended to target a smaller audience of handpicked viewers, Burberry has bridged the gap. This season it combined a show-stopping event in-person with innovative social elements (including animated GIFs of its new line) that were distributed openly to its fans via Twitter.
Though for some designers retaining exclusivity is key, BFC's stats are yet another example of the hunger for fashion-related video content online - and one that can be monetised at the same time as being a useful promotional tool.
Following the success of London Fashion Week, Rightster will provide a similar digital solution to other major fashion weeks throughout the year, so it's something we'll only see continuing to grow.

Fewer people now are relying on solely their TV networks to watch what they want. On line streaming is growing rapidly and this is another example.

Mobile is everywhere, and while it might not be everything, one need look no further than Facebook to recognize that for many companies, figuring mobile out is crucial.
But despite the obvious opportunities being created by the mobile explosion, many questions remain. One of the biggest: just how big is the mobile ad market going to be?
There are billions of mobile devices in use around the world, but even in the world's largest advertising market, the United States, spending on mobile ads is still in the single digit billions. Contrast that with spending on television ads in the U.S., which exceeds $130bn each year.
Many believe that the mobile ad market is in its infancy and that we haven't seen anything yet. Razorfish's Paul Gelb, for instance, has suggested that mobile ads will eventually overtake their television counterparts, and he's not alone.
Matt Cohler, a former Facebook executive who is now a partner at venture capital firm Benchmark Capital, also believes that "mobile will grab TV advertising's crown."
In a guest post on TechCrunch, he explains:
People are going to spend more time staring at mobile screens than television screens (and certainly more time than staring at computer screens, especially when you exclude work applications). Your smartphone is with you pretty much all the time. Smartphones are also inherently social devices, which explains the deep emotional connection people feel to them. The society-wide reach and social context that mobile smartphones will provide advertisers leaves other media in the dust.
Using a mobile device is also a focused, immersive experience. Like watching TV, the screen focuses the user's attention on one thing at a time and "changing the channel" is even less distracting than with a television.
So what is holding mobile ads back? According to Cohler, the current size of mobile ad market is "simply an issue of time and of product and market development."
Theory versus reality
Few doubt that the market for mobile advertising is going to grow significantly. But can it really overtake television, which still generates more than double the revenue produced by all web advertising?
Cohler's faith in mobile is based on his belief that mobile beats television in "frequency, reach and engagement." But does it? In practice, mobile advertising suffers from a number of challenges, including:
- Size. One of the most attractive characteristics of mobile devices -- consumers always carry them because they fit in a pocket or purse -- is also one of mobile's most problematic characteristics. Put simply, creating effective mobile ads is a challenge with smaller form factors and even Apple
- Efficacy. Mobile ads are often seen to deliver higher CTRs, but does that mean they're effective? In some cases, advertisers are learning that their higher-than-average CTRs are the result of fat fingers, not interest, something that's reflected in a lack of ROI.
The annoyance factor. Mobile devices are intimate devices. They connect us to our most important friends, family members and colleagues, and they are our lifelines when we need information in a hurry. While Cohler sees this as a benefit, it's actually arguably a limitation: mobiles are tricky devices through which to advertise because they give advertisers the ability to annoy at least opportune times.
So it's not exactly surprising that many consumers seem to be tuning out mobile ads much as they do display ads. According to a new study conducted by Azullo, just a fifth of users polled could recall seeing an ad on their smartphone, either in an app or via the device's browser, within the past six months. Of the minority who did, over half couldn't recall the brand the ad was for.
- Inventory glut. Advertisers pay hefty premiums for television ads and one of the reasons is that inventory is tightly controlled by networks and purposely sold in a fashion that limits the efficiency of the market. With mobile, there is effectively no limit to the amount of inventory that can be created, and much of that inventory is sold very efficiently. As such, it is likely that mobile ads will face the same downward pressure on price as their web counterparts.
Can these challenges be addressed? Yes, some more easily than others.
But there's no reason to believe that they'll be addressed sufficiently enough any time soon to produce the time of shift that would be required to propel mobile advertising to television-like heights. Advertisers and publishers still have a lot of work yet.
Comments (10)
I don't believe mobile advertising can be compared to TV advertising directly, but it a large market and has the potential to grow to TV like figures.
My concerns are that Mobiles are personal...our diaries, our photo libraries, our music collections. TV is just a medium like Newspapers. Most advertising is brand based on TV. I think mobile brand advertising needs to be clever, app and service sponsorship for example.
Likewise, if businesses want to advertise offers, they need to be clever. Perhaps Geo location pop ups notifying users of a local deal, or a special offer on the DVD box-set of the TV program they just posted about on their mobile social networking app.
Adverts need to have a personal touch in my opinion. this way it fits with the way Mobiles are used, not viewed (like TV).
Great post I think the mobile ad market going to be massive. In 5 years time they will be by far the biggest source of advertising.
Whether you look at it as a glass half full kind of thing mobile marketing won't kick off to the astronomical figures it has threatened to, until the arrival of augmented reality.
the continued growth in mobile advertising I think is going to be a big breakthrough for our industry, away from a very static form a advertising when you can hit someone when sat at a PC to a far more effective way of getting people when they're more likely to purchase - such as offering a deal on something when a user is in a particular GEO location.
As Oliver has said, in a few years from now this is going to probably be medium for online advertisers - with this growth, it's making more and more sense for mobile to be a key element is everyone's online marketing plan and just not an extension of it.
Looking further down the line and in particular with regard to PPC - I can see average CPC rising significant as more and more advertisers start to bid online, which makes it even more important to be segmenting your advertising in AdWords by device now and implementing appropriate bidding strategies.
I think Dean's point is probably the most accurate here as at the moment here is a fundamental problem with everyone assuming that based on reach, frequency and engagement, Mobile advertising should be huge. What they are forgeting is the way in which consumers engage with content on their mobiles and as a result, the limitations within this.
Ultimately, as Dean mentions, Mobile phones are a very personal thing and they're also often something people use for very short bursts of time to check a piece of information or look something up which they wait for a person / means of transport / meeting or event. As such, to actually engage users you've got to be truely compelling and to do this, you've got to know who you're targeting.
This is obviously complicated by the way Mobile devices are tracked (not to mention the restrictions that DNT and the ePrivacy directive are trying to put in place) and opens up the question of whether Mobile will ever really achieve it's potential!
I hadn't considered the privacy issues Matt. Mobile advertising has a long way to go to be ultra effective, but then again how effective is TV advertising, sometimes not very!
@Dean - Too true. I still find the fact that in the UK TV advertising is entirely based on a panel of 5,100 households (11,500 viewers) ridiculous given the technology that is available these days to improve on that!
What if there is a way to make mobile advertising not annoying? And what if you can experience it cross device? These are not the concerns.. Advertising will definitely go mobile, but don't forget, so does Television :)
What is most attractive and interesting about Mobile advertising is how accurate a campaign will be able to be tracked, especially now that cell phone can function as credit cards + all other reasons already listed in the previous comments.
Projecting Mobile growth might be inaccurate at this stage but the shift of funding is inevitable from TV ads. We are comparing apples to oranges as the experience and context of such ads are very different from one another. Specific ads will benefit more than others at least at the beginning or until more successful campaigns will be marked.
Great post. In my opinion, Mobile Multimedia Ads is a great opportunity for Telcos with 4G deployment. Hope Omantel realizes the potential asap.

Arctic Museum Offers Bus Subsidy Grants for Schools
Story posted October 27, 2009
The Peary-MacMillan Arctic Museum is offering bus subsidy grants to K-12 schools. The subsidies are possible due to generous donations to the Arctic Museum's Bowdoin College Friends Fund initiative. The Museum staff hopes that the grants will allow teachers experiencing school budget cuts to continue to bring their classes to the Arctic Museum. Over the last year, 152 classes comprising 3,645 students visited the Arctic Museum and used its resources.
Students learn about Arctic animals, northern climates, Inuit culture, and Arctic exploration on museum tours. They investigate the museum's touch boxes, where they can hold a walrus tusk, try on Inuit snow goggles or use Inuit drill bows. Through prior arrangement, classes can work on student writing and drawing skills as well, or the class can listen to Inuit stories.
Any school with 25 percent or more of its students receiving free or reduced-fee lunches is eligible for the subsidy. The Arctic Museum will subsidize up to $150 per bus trip, with each school limited to a $300 subsidy. Grants to eligible schools will be awarded on a first-application-received basis and will be available until the subsidy fund is depleted. In addition, the Museum will continue to provide guides to lead tours of museum exhibits if a teacher requests guides. The tour guides, known as docents, are Arctic Museum volunteers who generously give of their time, and work-study students, many interested in the Arctic or teaching careers.
The Arctic Museum does not charge tour fees, but teachers are asked to call and schedule tours. People interested in volunteering at the Arctic Museum are welcome to call as well, as the 2009-2010 tour guide training program has just started.

He's one of thousands in the lawsuit campaign against file-sharers, but he seems to be an unlikely candidate. He's legally blind and too busy with his personal life to secure his WiFi connection. Unfortunately for him, he's also unable to afford to fight the case and might be forced to settle anyway.
For years, we here at ZeroPaid have been saying over and over again that an IP address doesn't necessarily connect to a guilty party of any alleged wrong-doing online. This is for a number of reasons which does include the possibility of WiFi hacking.
It's very likely that was the case in this instance.
According to Seattle Weekly, a blind man is amongst the thousands targeted in a mass BitTorrent lawsuit because he allegedly downloaded a porn movie. If you think this is odd that a blind person would be downloading porn movies, the accused would definitely agree. From the article:
He stood accused of having illegally downloaded a copyrighted film five months earlier, at precisely 6:03 a.m. on the morning of January 27. The name of the Imperial Enterprises movie he purportedly purloined wasn't mentioned until four pages later. Though printed in tiny italic font in a court filing, it practically leapt off the page: Tokyo Cougar Creampies.
Yet when Mrs. Doe set eyes on that ignominious title, she couldn't help but crack a smile at the absurdity of the situation. Her husband is legally blind, with vision roughly 1/100th of that of a person with normal sight. He is physically incapable of watching any film, this particular porno included.
"To be honest, it's a little ridiculous," Doe 2,057 says with a rueful chuckle. "My movie-watching ability is nonexistent. My kids watch movies, but they are 4 and 6, so they don't watch porn either. Well, hopefully they don't."
This is just, yet, another case of how a mass lawsuit campaign can go wrong. For those that have followed these stories for years, this case might remind them of how the RIAA sued dead people for copyright infringement. There might also be the reminder of the case where the RIAA sued a family that didn't even own a computer. As long as rights-holders erroneously believe that an IP address always links to the person downloading copyright infringing material, false accusations will always be a running theme of any lawsuit campaign or three strikes law. Rights holders might as well open up a phone book, point to random people and say, "sue" because that tactic is just as accurate.
Sadly, with the case of the blind person today, he very likely won't have a choice but to settle due to financial constraints. Going before a judge would cost thousands – and if he lost, hundreds of thousands.
How could this have happened? The suspicion amongst the accused is WiFi hacking. They apparently live in a densely populated area. Being unable to find time to secure their connection, their network was open to hacking.
I think that as long as these lawsuit campaigns continue, we'll keep getting stories like this. There are rights holders out there that constantly want to sue file-sharers into non-existence, but they often have a habit of not caring who the intended target is in the end. Sometimes, the target is completely innocent of any wrong doing. When the target is innocent, it really sends the message that rights holders are simply suing completely random people.

Cleaning out the book shelves has put me in a mood to look at my tools, and move along those items i am making no sue of, for whatever reason. Some of these tools were purchased from little mom and pop hardware stores in Japan and never used or set up, others were included in batches of tools bought in quantity, others were bought and just not put to use as I had thought I might. May as well move them along to someone who will make use of them. I'll be adding to this list over the next couple of days, so please check back if this sort of thing is of interest.
Shapton 'Pro' #2000 stone, NIB, still with the plastic wrapping:
Japanese framing hammer, medium size:
Cross-hatched face:
Brown and Sharpe trammel set:
Packed in a mahogany box:
A pair of 42mm kiwa ganna, of a unique type, kinda like a gotoku ganna was divided into two separate planes, right and left. Makes for a low profile dai so this plane can also be used for trimming the sidewalls of grooves:
I bought these from another carpenter about 5 years ago and he had set them up. I never put them to use since. They are a hair loose in fit in my judgement, so a thin paper shim will likely be required.
The sub blades are not laminated:
I think the maker is Katsujiro:
$200 for the pair.
A set of corner molding planes:
These I scrounged in small town hardware stores in Japan, and have never done much with them.
Various makers.
A look at the profiles:
The set of 5 is offered at $250.00
The Akafuji ("Red Fuji") jointing plane, by the famous (and long deceased) Tanaka Sho Ichi Ryo:
About 15.5" in length:
Dai is fitted with a kuchi-ire:
Laminated sub-blade - the cutting steel is excellent, but I don't know what it specifically is:
I purchased this as a used tool, already set up. While the ura isn't the prettiest, the fit between blades and in the dai is fine.
Maker's name:
The plane was called Red Fuji due to the slight copper patination on the blade:
The working surface - the dai is 'hon' red oak, a material getting harder to obtain and now quite costly:
The mouth opening:
There's another one of these on Ebay right now- which is surprising given the rarity of the tool - for $900. I'll offer this one at $750.00
More tools to be listed tomorrow.

Tempura Japanese Grill is one of the Family's fave restaurant. Though it's slightly far from home because we have to go to San Fernando pa, the travel is always worth it.
We ordered..
GYOZA - This is my personal favorite. I could finish this by myself. dumplings forever
TUNA SASHIMI - This is my dad's personal fave. TJG's tuna sashimi is one of the freshest sashimi we ever tasted. :)
SEAFOOD KAISEN RAISU - This is good for 2 to 3 persons. Sweet and Spicy fried rice with bits of seafood and crunchy spicy anchovies. My fave part was the Tobiko at the top.
*Tobiko is the japanese name for flying fish roe. The orange thingy at the top of the rice. It is also used in sushi.
SEAFOOD RAMEN - Thin egg noodles in clear soup. This time the ramen disappointed me. I think it should be called MUSSEL ramen. Coz it's full of tahong. No clams and squid.
EBI TEMPURA - This is mama's fave. What can i say? Yummy as always. :)
GYUNIKU TERIYAKI - It's our first time to order this. We didn't like it that much because it's sweet. And i think hindi bagay yung pagkasweet niya sa Beef.
... I recommend Beef Teppanyaki.
All in all, it's still our fave resto, so.. five stars!

FAIR OAKS - A young woman is dead after leading police on a high speed chase through Citrus Heights.
Officers opened fire when the driver rammed her vehicle into a Citrus Heights Police Department car. The Sacramento County Coroner identified the woman as 22-year-old Gabriella Nevarez, referred to by her friends and family members as Gaby.
Those who knew Nevarez embraced one another near the crash site as word quickly spread that the 22-year-old was shot and killed during a police pursuit.
Citrus Heights police said Nevarez led officers on the high speed chase after they received reports that the car she was driving had been stolen. Officers tried to pull her over but were unsuccessful.
"The female became uncooperative, combative and tried to flee the scene. She did this by ramming a patrol vehicle with an officer inside," said Brian Fritch with the Citrus Heights Police Department.
Police chased after Nevarez as she reached speeds of up to 70 miles an hour on Madison Avenue.
One of her friends was on the phone with her as the pursuit played out. "She said, 'cops are behind me' and then hung up. I texted her about 20 minutes after that and I said, 'are you okay?' And I didn't get no text back," said Whitney Palma.
The pursuit ended at an apartment complex on the 7500 block of Sunset Avenue when Nevarez tried ramming another police vehicle. Officers opened fire saying they feared for their lives.
But Nevarez' friends said the shooting was not justified.
"She tried to backup, but they thought she was trying to get a gun or something and they start shooting at her," Palma said.
Family members said Nevarez took the car from her grandmother who she had just gotten in an argument with.
Nevarez leaves behind a 3-year-old son.
"One day, we will have to pull him aside and let him know what happened and the story about his mom. But from here on we just have to keep pushing our lives," said cousin Louie Esquivel.
Friends plan to hold a candlelight vigil on Monday at 8 p.m. where Nevarez died.
In the meantime, as is routine with cases like this, the officers involved in the shooting have been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.

We have been seeing the ads on TV for a computer keyboard that had a high contrast keyboard with letters four times normal size on the keys. We both had been discussing getting new keyboards, so I went to the GetEZEyes.com and checked out the offer. The main promotion was two EZ Eyes keyboard $14.95. There was a bonus of two mice being included. There was more. I ended up ordering two deluxe keyboards that glow in the dark and have a lifetime warranty, two mice, shipping and handling, all for $40.85. I called and the girl on the phone didn't know if the mice were rollerball or optic.
Due to massive orders, the merchandise was back ordered, but when the package arrived, we were not disappointed. The keyboards are great, easy to use and waterproof. The mice were optic mice that were virtually identical to a mouse at WalMart that sells for thirty dollars. We did some math and found that the keyboards and mice cost us about ten dollars a piece, a price WalMart cannot meet. This TV offer is good.

While spilling the beans about his hugely successful Kick-Ass comics, writer Mark Millar gave IGN the lowdown on his brief brush with the Superman film franchise.
According to Millar, he and director Matthew Vaughn were interested in the project, but the creative freedom of the independent Kick-Ass shoot made them less keen to tackle a studio franchise.
Interestingly, although the interview took place before the news that The Dark Knight helmer Christopher Nolan was being brought onboard to "godfather" the Superman series, Millar says that the franchise could do with a Batman Begins-like reboot.
And he suggests future franchise instalments should avoid sticking the Man of Steel in a hospital bed for the final 20 minutes, a la Superman Returns.

text: Gamnesia: "The story of how this game ever even happened revolves around alcohol. The guys from both studios got together and just started talking about a collaboration. Telltale felt that Borderlands had a rich world with a really great narrative, and they felt it would be a good fit to make a game about Borderlands with the style of Telltale Games. Many fans these days fail to recall Telltale's history of funny games – Sam and Max, for example, or Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People – so Borderlands' tendency for humor fits well with them, and they're a bit relieved to be moving away from the darker stories of The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us."

The company's portfolio of services includes IT infrastructure, global services, business and home computing, and imaging and printing. The Modis Solution: Testing lab increases monitor quality, video card compliance This client needed help in effectively testing their line of monitors with the newest video cards. They saw an opportunity for cost savings and process improvement by consolidating responsibilities that were spread across several groups by outsourcing. The client wanted to ensure monitors performed well with all video cards in the market and provide feedback to the video card manufacturers so they could meet the company's high standards. The Modis Technology Center in Houston, Texas proposed to test the monitors and developed a Web-based tool to provide real-time feedback to the client's program managers and monitor manufacturers. This solution streamlined the feedback process and cut down on the need for travel. The Modis Web site also can be easily modified for any new type of test project Modis receives. Since the engagement started, Modis has been testing 30 to 50 models for the client annually. The client benefited from Modis' years of testing experience and the Modis quality assurance testing process, which involves the step-by-step verification needed for confidence in the end product. The client realized significant improvements in the quality of their monitors, a diminished need for post-purchase service calls as well as better compatibility across a wide variety of platforms. In addition to making sure that each monitor met very stringent requirements, Modis worked with a variety of monitor vendors to identify and correct errors and make improvements.

The phenomenon of actors dipping their toes into the pool of rock music isn't exactly a new one, with a long list of largely derided recordings from thesps like Russell Crowe (30 Odd Foot of Grunts) and Keanu Reeves (Dogstar) having fallen by the wayside. Over the past few years, however, Hollywood's women have been getting in on the act, and doing so with a good deal more artistic acclaim — and even a modicum of commercial success.
This current wave of crossover performers includes Rebecca Pidgeon, Scarlett Johansson (who recently released an album consisting almost entirely of Tom Waits covers) and Zooey Deschanel, who formed the quietly rootsy duo She and Him with cult singer-guitarist M. Ward.
"There's really no denying the credibility of these records," says Rob Cross, director of programming for Sirius Satellite Radio's Left of Center channel. "These aren't women who are focused on having hits, so they're willing to take some chances. And people are responding. We're a couple of hundred plays into the She and Him single ("Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?") and we're still getting a great response to it."
Deschanel says she feels validated by the response, particularly given the fact that — unlike the showier Juliette Lewis, who's taken to hard rock with her band the Licks — she's gone out of her way not to capitalize on the name recognition that might've come from her starring roles in "Elf" and "The Happening."
"I suppose I was conscious of wanting to draw a line between the two aspects, and that's why I chose a sort of anonymous band name," Deschanel says. "As an actor, your name is a product in a sense — the name of a public entity that's different than you as a person. So it's already strange enough to have that other entity, and I didn't want to bring that into this project."
Deschanel has ventured into music on a smaller scale in the past, dabbling in cabaret with an act she dubbed If All the Stars Were Pretty Babies, but kindred spirit Pidgeon actually gained her earliest public notice in the mercurial late '80s band Ruby Blue. The Brit actress was a student at London's Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts when she formed that band, which garnered a seven-album deal before disintegrating in the wake of Pidgeon's 1990 departure.
"Things happened very quickly for Ruby Blue, but when I moved to the States, I restarted both careers again, which was a different kettle of fish," says Pidgeon, who relocated to Los Angeles after marrying writer David Mamet. "I'm training myself not to see (music) as a secondary career, but it was never my plan as a forming young adult to be a singer-songwriter. … I saw myself as an actress."
While she's attained more stature in the latter realm, Pidgeon's quirky songwriting and warm, burnished vocal tone have won over an impressive roster of supporters, including producer Larry Klein — a 2008 Grammy winner for his work on Herbie Hancock's Joni Mitchell tribute "River" — who produced her latest album, "Behind the Velvet Curtain."
"One of the things I like about working with Rebecca is that the ambition isn't driving the singing or songwriting," Klein says. "She has a very natural quality about what she does."
A similar ease of delivery has been attributed to Johansson, who made her full-length recorded debut this May with "Anywhere I Lay My Head," a disc largely culled from the catalog of the notoriously difficult-to-interpret Waits. While hardly an unmitigated commercial success — it barely skirted the album charts — the disc did win the actress a goodly number of critical bouquets that saw her compared to precursors as varied as Nico and Ronnie Spector.
According to Sirius' Cross, praise alone would seem sufficient to sustain the continued recording careers of performers like Johansson, Pidgeon and Deschanel, who's already announced plans for a second She and Him album.
"It used to be that an actress would have to have the potential to be as big as Jennifer Lopez before a label would take a shot with them," he says. "But you don't need a huge machine behind you anymore. You can focus on the tastemakers and, if you're willing to take some chances, you can carve out a really cool, viable niche."
