Pics and videos or STFU! (to the guys at bright side news)
6. _Bone_ (Posts: 2155; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
It wouldn't be a rumor if there were pics or videos, would it? Evidence would make it a fact, wouldn't it?
7. Dr.Phil (Posts: 1771; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
Eh, it would still be technically a rumor because even if they were to release pictures or a video we would have no idea what we are really looking at. It could be the Nexus 10 or it could be a new device called the Nexus 10 Pro. Also, they could just use a normal Nexus 10 and tamper with the benchmarks to make it seem like it's a new device (haven't seen that before but I wouldn't put it in the realm of impossible.)

Its a rumor up until the moment it becomes official, regardless of evidence.
Idk what dr. Phil's smoking cx
9. _Bone_ (Posts: 2155; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Either way, considering a quad(octa)-core next-gen GPU'd 10" tablet I'm holding my breath for, this rumor is pretty promising as that's what required for 100% lagless fullHD+ gaming and movie playback, for other purposes a Nexus 7 should be enough.

I think theres a better chance they will put a tegra 4 in the nexus 7/10 than this.
24. Dr.Phil (Posts: 1771; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
I was saying exactly what you are saying, except I was using an example to explain it...
My point was that EVEN IF they released the video, we wouldn't know what we were looking at.

So the people who shelled out $499 at the Play Store and to the people who spent the extra money purchasing it on eBay will have a unit that will be "night and day" differenece compared to the new one? Sounds like Apple with their 3rd and 4th generation one.
14. _Bone_ (Posts: 2155; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
So should they stop making new devices?
21. imkyle (Posts: 1087; Member since: 18 Nov 2010)
Oh yes stop making devices all together. That's a sarcastic question that should not even be mentioned. They should have tested the current GPU more thoroughly to make sure it could handle a screen that large in pixels. Releasing a device 2 months after the first one sucks for those who purchased the first model.

Difference is they are not saying it's the new model like 4,4s
Im ok with updated product hardware. At least Google is addressing problems.
3. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Okay, sounds awesome..Google seems to be well aware of things and is making all the right decisions.
This could be my first tablet, if true
4. jove39 (Posts: 2049; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
That was quick Google :)
5. techguy22 (Posts: 227; Member since: 09 Aug 2012)
wow.and i almost bought one on ebay. i cant wait. hope its true.
10. TheLibertine (Posts: 484; Member since: 15 Jan 2012)
Geez. But the iPad 4 was a decorative and over-rushed update...
12. HDShatter (Posts: 1021; Member since: 17 Jan 2013)
Nexus 10 is already getting outdatted by other devices running 1600p + tegra 4s so it makes since for an upgrade.
15. MorePhonesThanNeeded (Posts: 645; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
Wow, I have yet to see one affordable tablet running 1600p. Seen CES things, but nothing that is out now that a consumer can purchase running that.
Google will always upgrade things, seems that the original Nexus 10 bit off more than it could chew, so they want a better specified CPU/GPU combo to run it's insane resolution as smooth as butter.
13. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
Exynos 5 quad and Mali-T658 or 678 would be a very nice upgrade.
16. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
ASUS made?
17. MistB (Posts: 581; Member since: 07 Jul 2012)
Nope, insider info definitely points it to being Samsung.
22. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
That's too bad then... If the tablet look anything like the Galaxy Note 10.1 then I'll think about it.
25. IHateApple (banned) (Posts: 122; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
IF it's Samsung, then I am sure Exynos 5 Octa also has Mali-T628. The performance T628 should be twice the performance of T604. Plus, we also get OpenGL ES 3.0 support.
20. papss (unregistered)
I wish as they make WAY better hardware than crapsung
19. papss (unregistered)
It's more likely in response to apples updated GPU, too bad there are no games on android that will show the power
23. half_21 (Posts: 44; Member since: 16 Nov 2012)
This is one trend that i hate about google..they release a product then months after they release an upgraded device of the same product on the same price, which makes u regret buying the lower spec model rather than waiting for the improved one...(happened to me on my nexus 7 16gb model for $249)....hmmm,
26. amirata_xman (banned) (Posts: 33; Member since: 05 Jan 2013)
nit interested at all
28. thelegend6657 (unregistered)
Can't wait for a Google nexus 10S/nexus 10+ , with a GPU of up to twice as fast , 3G/4G LTE , bigger battery , more colour options , better camera etc

Whenever we play a guard with above average speed Lin looks like he's lost on defense.
Damn I'm tight the Lakers lost to Detroit tonight and the Knicks are looking like their about to lose to Dallas
disappointing quarter - How bad are we shooting today - Mello like 2 from 11 , lin 4 from 12, smith 1 from 5 - stat 6 from 13 - davis 1 from 4, fields 2 from 5
We either shoot the lights out or shoot like dogs !
Like it or not folks the Knicks are just a .500 team. The talent says otherwise but the results show who they are.
You have to put this team in someone else's hands and see what you get. This team should be better than this.
Real Talk
So who still wants Davis to start?

Anyone else seeing this? No steam in the exhaust, no bubbles or oil in the radiator. I have drained the oil twice to check for water, it's just what you would expect from a running engine with no filter but the inside of the transmission and the oil filler opening is has a white coating on them. You can see some droplets of water through the filler opening. I even pulled the valve covers off, just oil. I am leaving them off so I can check to see if there might be any cracks I didn't see in that area. Any time the engine is run it is allowed to come up to full operating temperature. The last time I checked the plugs, which was not too long ago, they just had their normal oily black soot on them. I am guessing that given the cool damp (wet) weather here in Portland Or and where I have my T which is a glorified lean-to with tarps on the side and given the amount of condensation on the outside of the engine, the same must be happening on the inside.
Any thoughts?
My car lives outside. The white foam is normal for me it leaves when the car warms up a few miles.
When I lived in Cincinnati I had the same thing Mark. It's humidity contamination of the oil. We don't see it here in Dallas or when I lived in Tucson because it doesn't rain that much here. Time to change the oil.
Someone made a PCV setup that fit their T, it might be a good idea for folks who live in places where it rains and snows a lot.
Same thing a hunnerd miles north of you.
I worried about it for a long time and checked things over many times.
Now I don't worry...just change the oil maybe every 500 to 1000 miles.
Thanks. I was thinking about some sort of vent for the inspection cover. I just changed the oil so I will keep and eye on it! There was a unit back in the day that had a pipe that ran from the filler hole to the carb, wonder if that is what they were trying to clear up. Only 3 1/2 months/450 miles or which ever comes first till the next oil change!
Model T standard splash oiling with no filter should be changed every 500 to 1000 miles anyway. That condensation coupled with gas contamination from choking the engine when starting and short drives turns the oil acidic which is bad for Babbitt bearings. Oil filters in pressurized systems are designed to remove the acid.
No, this should not turn into one of our famous "what kind of oil do you use" threads. It does not matter whether you use detergent or not, multi-viscosity or not, without a filter, your oil will become acidic in under 1000 miles. Actual mileage really does vary, depending on humidity and other driving conditions.
I do not plan on ever converting a T to a filtered system. I just change the oil in the T often, then put it into the modern car. It has a filter which removes the acid and I am too cheap to throw away otherwise nearly new oil.
Drive carefully, and enjoy, W2
Wayne; Never thought of that using the old oil, I like it!
I've run other flat head engines with out any indication of condensation. I suppose the Model T would be about as bad as it get. The oil says cold because it does not circulate past the cylinders as an overhead valve engine and the transmission acts as a big oil cooler. It probably never really gets warmed up to really dry out the oil.
I've heard that non-detergent oil will not adsorb moisture but detergent oil will adsorb moisture. I wonder if anyone has observed a difference in the amount of condensation based on the type of oil used?? Maybe the detergent oil will remove more moisture from the engine when it is changed then non-detergent oil. I don't know.
Perhaps you'd find this product to be of some help. They come in 14mm and 18mm spark plug sizes, which would mean coming up with some kind of adapter for a Model T.
http://aircraftproducts.wicksaircraft.com/viewitems/ignition-charging-supplies/d ehydrator-plug
You might also consider sticking a bag of silica gel (also available from aviation supply companies) in the exhaust pipe and sealing it up with duct tape.
Baloney regarding non detergent oil being better in any way than modern oil Jim. Crummy oil has no better protection against moisture contamination than good oil. Non detergent oil is not good enough for my lawn mower. Using non detergent oil in anything you care about is a bad idea. Sludge kills engines.
There is one purpose (that I know of) for non detergent oil in an internal combustion engine. It is used to break in cams properly in high performance engines like the 427 Fords in my garage. I use 6 quarts of SAE 30 ND every time I build a new engine, mixed with a pint of General Motors Engine Oil supplement, a ZDDP rich engine break in additive. The engine is run at 2500 RPM for 20 minutes. Then the rotten non detergent oil is drained and disposed of.
Non detergent oil is best for this use because it can circulate while allowing the camshaft break in grease to cling to the lobes during the critical 20 minute break in period. You want to drain it immediately afterwards and replace with detergent oil because the cam break in lubricant is not good long term for the other engine components in these high performance engines.
Please note that none of this is applicable to a Model T Ford unless you have something like a Frontenac or Rajo overhead valve head with crazy high spring pressure.
I had the white mixture,around the filler neck on my Hack.
********************* Its gone now. ******************
How? The filler cap was an obvious re-pop from the past. The O.D. of the cap was the same O.D. as the filler neck, which means the crankcase was not BREATHING as designed. The moisture was trapped.
Swapped caps with another car and the symptoms moved with the cap. I bought a new cap.
If the crap is yellow, it's from oil burning.
I use a 180 thermostat, because it causes the car warm up completely within a mile, and the oil has to get about that hot to evaporate the moisture and light acids. I also use a PCV valve and seal all the other openings on the Fronty.
Yup 180 thermostat or a burlap bag! The cap is original and the screen is clear. I should have put cardboard in front of the radiator when I took it to breakfast yesterday I didn't get her hot enough to clear the moisture. It was only about a 10 mile round trip.

It's back to basics for Trapattoni as Green is given pivotal midfield role
Leeds midfielder will start alongside Whelan against Sweden in World Cup qualifier
Sweden v Republic of Ireland
World Cup Qualifier

Date: 22 March, 2013
Time: 7:45 PM
Venue: Friends Arena, Stockholm
On TV: RTE Two
For all the talk of grooming talent and shifting styles, Giovanni Trapattoni has rather more pressing business here in Stockholm this evening. After an embarrassing European Championship and a humiliating home defeat by Germany, the 74 year-old must engineer a way for Ireland to emerge from the Friends Arena at full-time with something to show for their efforts. Pride will count for little on this occasion. A point is what is required.
He will point to the away days in Paris, Bari, Moscow and Belgrade as evidence of what he and his players can do on their day and hope he can instil the confidence required to upset Sweden by producing another big one.
In a slight departure from his usual practice of naming his starting line up, the Italian did so but said that he was still unsure about Hull City midfielder Robbie Brady, revealing that he would speak with him again after training and suggesting that he wished to be persuaded by the player himself that he was "psychologically" up to the challenge.
The ploy, it seems, might have intended to focus the 21 year-old on the scale of the responsibility with which he is being entrusted. Sure enough, the pair could be seen deep in conversation out on the pitch and while it unclear last night what the conclusion of the exchange was, the Dubliner is expected to start ahead of Andy Keogh who, Trapattoni confirmed, is currently next in line.
Those sharpening knives for the former Italy boss will watch with interest how it all plays out this evening but the greater controversy in terms of this team selection remains the inclusion of Paul Green at the expense of James McCarthy.
This was the manager's clear statement that he intends the side to get back to basics this evening with the Leeds midfielder expected to hustle and harry in midfield, winning the ball where possible but primarily depriving opponents of the opportunity to use it effectively.
Whether the 29 year-old is really up to the task remains to be seen but Trapattoni clearly sees him as the best bet for the role. McCarthy, it might well be argued, would have helped Ireland keep the ball when they had it but the manager clearly reckons that is a price worth paying on a night when it may prove hard to come by at all for stretches and Zlatan Ibrahimovic's extravagant talent requires come class of counter measure.
Trapattoni was defensive about Green, insisting that he is maligned because of the type of player he is - Gennaro Gattuso and Nobby Stiles sprang to the 74 year-old's mind - while his ability is consistently underestimated. The veteran coach was even prepared to talk down McCarthy in the circumstances, apparently taking exception to the suggestion that he is more creative. "No," he said," "you can not say that. What he does is good but he passes the ball in a linear way (sideways) and in two years time he can be better than Glenn Whelan but he is not creative."
Brady and James McClean will be depended upon to produce the goods on that score and it will be a critical test for the pair. Having angrily taken to twitter when he was passed over previously, the Derryman will get his chance tonight to do his talking on the pitch. His task will not only be to provide openings for Robbie Keane and Shane Long but to contain Mikael Lustig as Seb Larsson drifts inside to clear a path for the celtic full-back.
On the other wing Behrang Safari, assuming he starts, may not be so adventurous given how badly things went wrong for him when the team lost in Holland a couple of years ago and Brady, along with Seamus Coleman, should get chances to test the Swedes down that flank.
The speed with which they can do it will be crucial for there should be space through much of the evening for Shane Long to run into behind the home side's central defensive partnership of Jonas Olsson and Andreas Granqvist, neither of whom possesses much pace.
The Swedes fear being caught on the break or at set pieces, where Brady could again prove crucial, and they are certainly vulnerable on both scores. There should then be opportunities for the Irish although clearly they will have to tighten up pretty dramatically themselves if they are have any real prospect of making even an away goal count for much.
The absence of Johan Elmander should take a little of the edge of the Swedish attack but Larsson and Alexander Kacanikic will pose a persistent threat from behind likely lone striker Tobias Hysen. And that is before you even begin to consider what might happen if Ibrahimovic has a good night and the Irish defence a bad one.
It won't be lost on Trapattoni that the match will be overseen by the Spanish referee that gave Juve defender Stephan Lichtsteiner such remarkable latitude against Celtic a few weeks back. Green, John O'Shea and the occasionally rash Ciaran Clark might, the Italian will hope, all benefit from a little of that leniency this evening.
For his part, the PSG star rather sportingly observed, when asked whether the Irish plan might involve kicking him a bit; "I'm prepared for everything. The opponents have to do everything they can to beat to win; us too, we just try to do it in a different way, that's all."
The Irish, in fact, are unlikely to be devoting too much time to thoughts of victory but the avoidance of defeat? Well, that's another thing. It will not be easy but then neither would the road back be in the event that tonight's game is lost.
Sweden (Probable): Isaksson (Kasimpasa); Lustig (Celtic), Olsson (West Brom), Granqvist (Genoa), Safari (Anderlecht); Kallstrom (Spartak Moscow), Elm (CSKA Moscow); Larsson (Sunderland), Ibrahimovic (PSG), Kacaniklic (Burnley); Hysen (Gothenburg).
Republic of Ireland: Forde (Millwall); Coleman (Everton), O'Shea (Sunderland), (Clark), Wilson (Stoke City); Brady (Hull City), Whelan (Stoke City), Green (Leeds United), McClean (Sunderland); Long (West Brom), Keane (LA Galaxy).
Referee: Alberto Undiano Mallenco (Spain)

jr, you got a little problem. someone has got to move him for you to git him again. guess I could help you out and move him to hot springs, with a few other tags.
IDK. It'll take someone more motivated than me to go through the posts..lol
Although I was looking for another active region for eggy and the SE ToR. Doesn't look like other areas like to ride like NC, though.

Saturday, Aug. 4 was a wonderful day in Yell County. Many churches, health professionals and volunteers from Pope and Yell counties came together to serve the people in our community. The different stations that provided for the needy included dental exams, basic health checkups, eye screening tests, hair cuts, school supply distribution and grocery distribution.
There were also stations for kids to play games and ride ponies. There was live music and free hot dogs, cookies and drinks. There was a prayer tent set-up for folks who had spiritual needs. Once again, it was a great day.
This year's event was even more successful than last year. There were 396 families served 1,457 bags of groceries; 590 children received school supplies; 44 young children had their eyes tested; and 43 children were given hair cuts at the event while another 45 "free haircut" coupons were given away for later appointments. Moms got their nails painted while they waited. Kids and adults got their faces painted with different designs. There were more hot dogs eaten than can be counted. It was a joyous, festive event.
The list of churches and volunteers is too numerous to be named. Fourteen churches from the Arkansas River Valley brought food, drinks, horses, volunteers and helped financially. Dentists, nurses, organizations and businesses got together to help with this event as well. We would like to thank Lee's Trash Service, Walmart, Harp's, Area Agency on Aging, River Valley Christian Clinic and, most of all, the Arkansas Food Bank. Without them, this event would not have been possible.
The simple fact that this many people — with different religious backgrounds, from different walks of life, from competing businesses — could come together to work for the good of our community and help those in need is uplifting and inspiring. People gave and did what they could and out of that came extraordinary things.
The extraordinary came from the love of God. His love exploded our feeble efforts and made this event truly a blessing. Not just to those who received what was given, but to those giving it as well.
Thank you again to all the volunteers. Thank you to all the contributors. Thank you to the ones who came and let us be a part of your lives.

This code will be used to determine wheter a cell value (from a datagridview) is 0, if so it's background color will be red.Code:
int countRows = dataGridView1.Rows.Count;
for (int i = 0; i < countRows + 1; i++)
if (int.Parse(dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[11].Value.ToString()) == 0)
dataGridView1.Rows[i].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Red;
But i get a NullReferenceException at the red marked line.
So i have two questions:
1. How can i fix this?
2. Is it possible to get data from a cell by using it's columnname? Not like dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[11].Value.ToString() since the database column places can be changed.
Thanks in advance.

Great work, masak. I started using that in Padre::Plugin::Perl6 to index Perl6 functions.
Happy to hear that.
A more safe one-liner that works even on win32 platforms.
perl -e "$_ = <> until
That version may work on win32 platforms, but it doesn't in bash, which does variable interpolation of double-quoted strings. Single quotes work.
Thanks for the tip about
q{} and
qq{}, though! I really should remember to use those more in one-liners, where single quotes are essentially hijacked by the
-e string.

By Rob Mahoney
• Kobe Bryant gambles a ton on defense. When those gambles pay off, limited opponents can be completely handcuffed by that additional ball pressure. When Kobe is caught cheating off his man, the Lakers pay for it with uncontested layups, open threes and necessary fouls. He puts his team in a horrible position on an all too frequent basis, as Darius Soriano illustrates in his video breakdown of some of Bryant's more annoying defensive habits:
What further complicates things is that Kobe is a major culprit. His off-ball defense stands out as particularly poor this year. He's gambling for steals, losing sight of his man, and roaming in ways that make the team's defense structurally unsound. In essence, Kobe is making the easy choice way too often rather than making the harder play that is more taxing physically.
In a way, this is easy to understand. Kobe is playing heavy minutes (44 hard ones against the Jazz) and is carrying a tremendous burden on offense. The energy he's expending on that side of the ball is massive and to think that won't affect him in other areas would be a silly conclusion, especially for a 17 year veteran. That said, he's clearly coasting on defense in order to conserve energy on offense and that simply won't do. Not only does it hurt the team in countless tangible ways, it sets a bad example for how the team needs to play on that end of the floor.
• Very much related: Tom Ziller examined the wild variance in the Lakers' defensive performance.
• Evan Turner -- who is shooting a career-high 44.4 percent on three-pointers this season -- happened upon his long-range game by accident.
• NBA backstories hardly come better than that of Reggie Evans, the bruiser of a forward (and impeccable flopper) who has turned an undrafted start into some all-time rebounding numbers. Howard Beck tells Evans' story in The New York Times, complete with this great moment of confusion on the part of Evans' one-time Sonics teammate, Brent Barry:
Fifty-eight players were selected in the 2002 draft. Evans listened to every name called, then cried. It was the last time anyone in basketball underestimated him. The Seattle SuperSonics saw enough promise in Evans to sign him to a free-agent contract. It took little time for him to make an impression with his frenetic, borderline-reckless energy.
"The Thing," said Brent Barry, a former Sonics guard, comparing Evans to the blocky Fantastic Four character. "That's how I looked at him -- he's just a thing out there. 'What is that thing?'"
• Not strictly NBA related, but holy cow is this free-throw attempt something to behold.
• Austin Rivers has been absolutely awful. He also needs as much playing time as he can get. These two truths are not at all contradictory, as Rohan Cruyff explains in a great piece for At the Hive.
• On Friday, Kirk Goldsberry examined an occurrence which he called "the Kobe assist" -- an attempt missed in such a way that it's conducive to offensive rebounding and thus hardly harmful for the offensive team. Today he posted the spillover from that initial column, including a point of clarification that's as crucial to the notion of the Kobe assist as it is to basketball thinking in general:
Also, I believe Kobe Assists are fascinating, and an important component to offensive basketball. I do not believe they will revolutionize basketball analytics. As I explain in the piece, I do believe they expose -- albeit in an admittedly silly way -- a critical limitation of basketball metrics. We chop up the game too much. I also want to clarify something about "crediting" the jump shooter for the Kobe Assist. In no way do I believe that people miss shots on purpose in a way that create second chance points. I do however absolutely believe that teams are units, and good schemes that align shot timing, shot locations, and rebounding positioning can increase second chance points.
• Pau Flannery took a moment to appreciate the unexpectedly competent basketball being played in Orlando, where some might argue the lottery-bound team is winning too much:
... Even in the watered down East, the Magic are not going to the playoffs. What's the point of winning games if you're not going to have a realistic chance of winning them all? Over and over we are told that middling mediocrity is the worst kind of attribute. It's better to be horrible and maybe get lucky in the lottery than try to build anything of consequence in the interim.
This is the Waiting for Godot principle of team building and while it has been proven to work on occasion -- like, say, in Orlando -- it has also been proven to be a colossal waste of time in others. What if there is actually some kind of middle ground here. What if by being competitive, competent and professional, the Magic are actually laying the groundwork for something better down the line?
• David Lee does not appreciate you reminding Steph Curry about his wobbly ankles.
• Using Google Motion, Ian Levy offers us a fun look at the shot selection and shooting efficiency of three stars -- Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, and Kevin Durant -- over the course of an average game.
• Josh Bowe of Mavs Moneyball makes a great point regarding the perceived importance of "starting," and the manipulation of lineups in general:
Starting doesn't matter, but matchups and finishing the game do. It's why the Mavericks would start DeShawn Stevenson in the 2011 season, despite him rarely finishing the game. Carlisle liked how Stevenson fit in with the starting lineup, surrounded by better players. Could you imagine Stevenson checking into the game toward the end of the first quarter with J.J. Barea and Peja Stojakovic? Stevenson's primary asset (floor spacing + defense) would be rendered useless with fewer open looks generated by less-talented offensive players around him and his defense would be negated because he's guarding less-talented players.interesting visual representations of Chicago's performance and lineups this season Bulls
If Stevenson is playing 17 minutes, wouldn't you rather a majority of them be checking Dwyane Wade than Mike Miller or Mario Chalmers? It's all about maximizing your talent, getting the right players on the floor at the right time. Whether that means you play the first seven minutes of a game is pretty meaningless when you consider the long-term goal of playing well in a 48-minute contest. It's why some players start games and play less than 20 minutes a night, while Jason Terry can come off the bench close.

Is that some what accurate paraphrase of the theory on how DNA (or at least precursors) came to be?
Not really, to be honest. It's also nothing to do with Evolution. Evolution, in its purest form, discusses how DNA (or RNA, or any other genetic material) changes. It doesn't say anything about where that genetic material may have come from.
It may be a genetic algorithm some bored programmer put together. They evolve just like the more widely known living systems and the theory of Evolution describes them.

Yes. Since they are part of our society and since being in prison means they are paying a debt towards society, they should be able to vote.

There's a lot of criminals out in the open -in fact a lot who you voted for- who should instead be inellegible and not be allowed to vote...
NO WAY

They have been removed from society for a reason they are CRIMINALS
I refuse to read a NOVEL for a reply
definately not.

the emphasis for that law goes back to a variety of situations

for example, voting for the most lenient judges

voting on propositions that favored something of their interests.

block voting as a disruptive statement (in judicial or court elections, again as the subject)

they are considered to have lost the right to vote when they lost their freedom. the reasons are many, but meaningful.
I dont think prisoners should have the right to vote. They have commited crimes and have been sent to jail. You don't get sent to jail for picking up a packet of sweets..:)
Uh, yes, they do. Because being locked away in prison for something doesn't mean you're no longer an american and don't have the right to vote.

You know who REALLY shouldn't have the right to vote?

Narrow-minded people.

The same narrow-minded people who seem to believe being in jail means you're no longer a citizen and don't have the right to vote.
no when they commited the crime they lost that right
What are the people afraid of? That criminals will outvote "non-criminals"? When more people are behind bars than outside it, then I'd say you definitely have much greater problems than allowing them to vote or not...
You are sent to prison to pay your debt to society. Part of that payment denies you the right to vote.
No they lost that right
ummm NO. thats part of the punishment, losing their rights. Its the chance they take when they break the law and they know it.
YES! WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE SAYING NO FOR?

Dear God, this is what is wrong with society. Do you know how many INNOCENT people are in jail? Yes there are people who are guilty and swear that they are not, but they are still human beings.

They will get out of jail one day and return to normal society, prisoners watch television, read books, browe the internet..... they do everything that we do except have everything ******** from them.

IF you were wrongly accused and sent to prison with children in the outside world, would you not want to shape and change their desinty by voting for an elective in your country?

THIS would give them HOPE, THIS would make them feel they can make a CHANGE in the world instead of being TOLD WHAT THEY ARE. @Everybody who says NO THEY ARE CRIMINALS THEY DONT BELONG IN THE REAL WORLD BLA BLA BLA.... You are labelling somebody who has a soul a personality and an opportunity to change themselves and the world around them, by labelling them you are silencing them.

How cold and ignorant that is
No. I believe they lose the right to have a say when they commit a crime.
Yes, take them to vote in Philadelphia where the Black Panthers showed up, so Holder can see that real voter intimidation is only a matter of perspective. Not all criminals are behind bars.
No,

1. when you commit a crime you loose those rights.

2. if enlisted men and women can not vote, then people in prison should not be allowed.
The only thing a prisoner should be allowed to do is breath and in some cases thats even to much freedom for them
Do the Crime forfeit the Right to Vote.Besides that ,criminals have more rights than their victims now.What next,week end furloughs,or prison time from 6 am to 5 pm.There's a reason why their in prison.DUH !!
Absolutely not, that is a Privilege for law obiding citicens, revocation of rights is part of the punishment of breaking the law. It is not a absolute privilege entitled to all,..rather conditional. You also have the right to keep your rights... it's an individuals choice which is also a right...free will...You screw up,.. tuff horseshit.
No. If they felt that they could break the rules and laws, then that means they disrespect their country and fellow contrymen, and shouldnt be allowed to choose who leads a community they have separated themselves from.
I think that the right to vote is an honour. It's a way in which our legal system recognises the voice of individuals. Everyone has a voice. Even people in prison

Rangers GM Jon Daniels juggling trade deadline, dad duties with even keel
SportsDay's Brad Townsend wrote an in-depth profile of Rangers general manager Jon Daniels for the Sunday section of the Dallas Morning News. In case you missed it, click here to read it in full, and also tune in to Fox Sports Southwest at 5 p.m. Sunday to catch In My Own Words: Jon Daniels. Here are a few highlights that Townsend covered in his story:
Earning his stripes: Daniels graduated from Cornell in the late '90s, but his Ivy League education didn't earn him a straight shot to the top. In 2001, Daniels left a corporate job at Allied Domecq PLC for a $1,200-per-month internship with the Colorado Rockies and slept on a mattress in a friend's unfinished basement to help make ends meet. A year later, the Rangers hired him as a baseball operations assistant and paid him $30,000 a year. Now, Daniels' salary exceeds the seven-figure mark.
Finding time: Aside from juggling the day-to-day tasks of an MLB general manager, Daniels has the added stresses of being a father to three young children. While Townsend points out that most general managers earn their long-hour gigs in their 40s and 50s (by which point, their kids are mostly grown up and independent), Daniels started working as a GM at 28. That means his kids -- Lincoln (5), Harper (3) and Charlotte (8 months) -- tend to need a little more attention.
Keeping cool: The demands of Daniels' life are enough to make most people snap, but he manages to handle his daily tasks with a calm, laid-back approach. Even during times of peak pressure -- like the MLB trade deadline -- he doesn't show signs of stress. "I probably bury it," Daniels said jokingly. "And I'll probably have some medical issues later in life. ... That's just my demeanor. I'll have emotional peaks and valleys from time to time, but I am a pretty even-keeled person. That's just how I'm wired."
Still a fan: Daniels isn't some disconnected executive -- he's a die-hard baseball fan. He grew up in New York loving the Mets, and the fan in him still exists, which made the Rangers' latest World Series loss especially tough to swallow. Daniels says that baseball in the Northeast is like football in Texas, with fans hanging on every moment. "That's still ingrained in me," he says. "I've tried to even it out. I'm much better now during the regular season. The postseason, I'm still 'highs and lows with every pitch.' "

Feldman posts bumpy second start in loss
By Owen Perkins / Special to MLB.com
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- The Rockies veteran left-handed starter looked like the Jeff Francis of old as he pitched four scoreless innings of one-hit ball in a 6-3 win over the Cubs on Tuesday.
Francis completed his third scoreless outing, giving him a nine Cactus League innings without allowing a run. He struck out four, induced four groundouts and notched four flyouts, including two warning-track outs to left from the first two batters he faced.
Cubs starter Scott Feldman was less effective, allowing four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one over two innings and two batters.
"If you're going to have an outing like today, it's a good thing to have it in spring and not the regular season," Feldman said. "It's an opportunity to kind of sit back and look at things and what I need to work on and make a little bit of adjustment. From where I am right now, second start of spring, I'm just happy I feel good and my fastball is where it needs to be."
In the first game the Cubs have played without a designated hitter, Feldman recorded their only hit through the first four innings, a single to right to end Francis' streak of eight straight outs.
The Rockies tagged Feldman for runs in each of three frames, starting in the first when Todd Helton bounced a double over the wall in the left-field corner after a gritty at-bat, scorching foul balls down the right-field line and into the stands. Helton's first hit of the Cactus League season plated Josh Rutledge, who started the rally with a single to center.
Colorado added on in the second with a one-out double to right from Kent Matthes and a run-scoring single to center from Dexter Folwer.
Wilin Rosario capped Feldman's damage with a two-run homer to center -- his first -- following Troy Tulowitzki's leadoff single in the third, bringing an end to Feldman's outing.
Chicago broke through against Danny Rosenbaum when Edwin Maysonet drove a ball of the wall in the left-center gap, legging it out for an inside-the-park home run as left fielder Tim Wheeler and Fowler scrambled for the ball.
Up next: Lefty Hisanori Takahashi, competing for a spot in the bullpen, will start on Wednesday when the Cubs travel to Surprise, Ariz., to face the Rangers. Takahashi has appeared in three games in relief so far this spring, giving up one run on three hits over four innings. Junior Lake will start in center field and Javier Baez at shortstop. If you get to Surprise early, Jeff Samardzija will be pitching against the Rangers in a "B" game at 10 a.m. MT. The game will be available on an audio broadcast on Cubs.com.

A casual dining chain makes an electronic leap, the Federal Reserve votes no confidence for the economy, Tim Horton's plans substantial changes, second quarter restaurant traffic and more.
It was bound to happen sooner or later. Given the state of technology someone was going to make a major commitment to electronic ordering. The pioneer is Chili's who announced the chain will equip tables in most of the chain's 1,200-plus restaurants with a touch screen tablet that shows menu items, offers games, and allows credit card payments.
Chili's CEO said that a test of the devices in 180 locations indicated sales of appetizers, deserts and coffee increased. Only 10 percent of guest tables paid 99 cents to play games but the usage was higher if there were children at the table. (Customers can play an unlimited number of games for 99 cents on each visit. Chili's splits the game revenue with the equipment's owner.) About half of the customers used the equipment to pay their bills, too, probably because it expedites the process. Table turns actually increased for customers using the system.
In a company statement, Chili's says the system was not intended to cut labor and no job reductions are planned. And despite reduced interaction between customers and wait staff, the tip levels remained constant. Other chains testing the same or similar systems include Applebee's and Uno Chicago Grill.
As for operations that fear turning off less tech-savvy clientele or those who might find this approach too cold and impersonal, customers are free to ignore the tablets and just talk to the staff. (Information culled from articles in the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg Business Week.)

Anticipated US natural gas exports are expected to provide economic benefits to gas importing countries but probably will not trigger a significant rise in US gas prices, said a report released by Deloitte's Center for Energy Solutions.
"This shows why the government doesn't need to put a lid on projects. This says you don't need to artificially constrain this," Peter J. Robertson, independent senior advisor to the oil and gas group of Deloitte LLP, said during a Jan. 8 media briefing in Houston on the report, "Exporting the American Renaissance, Global impacts of LNG exports from the US."
Robertson said exports likely will strengthen trading relationships between the US and LNG-importing nations, especially members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
Deloitte researchers analyzed global gas markets if 6 bcfd of US LNG were to be shipped to either Asia (2 bcfd each to Japan, South Korea, and India) or Europe (3 bcfd each to UK and Spain). The 6 bcfd is not a projection but rather an assumption to evaluate gas markets, said the report, the third in a Deloitte series (OGJ Online, Dec. 16, 2011).
"Prices are projected to decrease fairly significantly in regions importing US LNG, but only marginally increase in the US," the study said.
Tom Choi, Deloitte MarketPoint natural gas market leader, said the projected increase of average US prices during 2016-30 is about 15¢/MMbtu.
"We don't see a global gas price evolving because of high transportation costs," Choi said.
The report also discussed pricing strategies, saying some exporters will continue to price gas supplies based on the oil price index. But oil-based pricing is likely to eventually erode, Choi said.
He believes gas markets will transition toward a more competitive price regime, in part because US LNG sold to Asia-Pacific buyers is not indexed to oil prices.
US LNG is widely expected to be indexed to Henry Hub gas prices rather than to crude oil, he said.

Either way, Smith isn't great at getting receivers the ball outside of maybe Crabtree and other positions that don't involve corners.
When we play Frisco, it's just going to be about being physical, physical, physical... Run and stop the run.
Ah well, time to test our depth..
No way to spin it, losing Revis sucks...
Will be balanced out if Palamalu and Harrison don't play
I like our depth, let's not forget we have a #1A CB in Cro
Lankster can play, and Trufant is a tough little dude.
Believe it or not, we still may match up ok with the Steelers given they don't have a beast WR, but a bunch of little guys, and our guys can run.
That said, you don't replace Revis, and I would think the Jets will shift their coverages a bit and play a little more zone.
The key will be getting E Smith back to put he and Bell down low, and put Landry in the backfield in coverages
I expect our pass rush to be fierce with a weak Steeler OL, so our secondary will have some help that way too.
Even worse, I have to eat crow from patfan.
Bring it...
Why don't you just take as gospel that he can't play and move on? The reality is is that in the NFL today, they are very cautious as far as head injuries. Players typically don't play the following week. The doctors are being cautious.
Your over-analysis of every little word that is reported - second hand - is a bit silly.
Who didnt play well last week? I mean, Ryan Fitzpatrick was throwing the ball directly at our players. You would have looked good out there last week.Wilson had a great game last week, just shut it Joe Nancy.
Ironically, Wilson will actually play the position he excelled at in college and got him drafted in the first round.
Slot/Nickel DB and outside CB are two completely different positions. The Steeler WR's don't scare me, they are quick little guys that can make plays, turns out our DB's with their ability match up pretty well, even without Revis.
If we were playing a team that had a Calvin Johnson or Andre Johnson type of play, I'd be more concerned.

Defense attorneys for Darin Etherton had sought to keep the prosecuting attorney's office from using a statement Etherton made about Brent Test, who died May 20 of a gunshot wound to the head.
But Circuit Court Judge Jon Comstock rejected the motion Friday and determined that Etherton's statement was spontaneous and admissible.
The statement was made to Cpl. Justin Crane while Etherton was being held July 3 in the Benton County Jail on charges unrelated to the murder case. However, Rogers police considered him a suspect in the shooting, and Crane said he was aware of that, the Northwest Arkansas Times reported Saturday.
According to Crane, he saw jailers escort Etherton to the recreation area where they left him alone. Crane, who was in a control pod, said he heard Etherton yelling from the recreation area.
"It was more yelling and grunting," Crane said. "I couldn't hear specific words he was saying."
Crane said Etherton then admitted to shooting "Brandon Test."
Crane said he was shocked by the admission and asked Etherton, "What?" Crane said Etherton responded by saying, "I murdered him. I shot him in the head twice."
Crane returned to the control pod and wrote down Etherton's statements, and then told a Rogers police officer who was in the booking area to contact one of Rogers' detectives concerning the "spontaneous admission."
Defense attorney Drew Miller questioned Crane about why he hadn't given Etherton his Miranda warning and Crane said he didn't question Etherton about the murder case.
Crane reiterated he only asked "what" after hearing the first admission because he was shocked.
According to Stuart Cearley, chief deputy prosecutor, the issue was whether Etherton made a spontaneous admission or whether his statements were the product of a custodial interrogation.
"He's clearly in custody but it's not an interrogation," Cearley said. "He did not go in E-Pod with an 8-by-10 glossy picture of the victim and stick (it) in his face."
Miller said the first statement about the murder was a spontaneous admission, but it went into the interrogation realm when Crane asked, "What?" It didn't matter whether Crane was trying to clarify what he heard or was shocked and surprised by Etherton's comments, Miller said.
The judge didn't agree.
Miller didn't immediately return a call left after hours on Saturday seeking comment.

Not long ago, I read Lance Gray's tutorial on isolating a color using Photoshop. Lance's tutorial focused on color isolation in still images. You can also achieve this effect on the video side of things, and for that, the perfect application is After Effects—which is, after all, Photoshop on a timeline. This tutorial will help you to achieve the color isolation effect in your videos.There are several different ways in which we could tackle this task; this is just one of them.
Step 1: Import Your Video and Create a New CompositonTo begin, open After Effects and import the video. To do so, select Choose File > Import > File or use the shortcut Ctrl + i (for Windows users) or Cmd + i (for Mac users).
Next, create a composition for the clip by selecting Composition > New Composition (Figure 1, below) or by using the shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + n. Make sure your composition settings agree with the frame size, frame rate, and other properties of your source clip. You can also create a new composition by dragging the source clip to the New Composition icon, located in the bottom of the Project Panel.
Step 2: Apply the Leave Color EffectOnce you have the clip in the Composition, you are ready to apply the effect. The effect that we will try is the Leave Color effect.
Apply this effect by selecting the clip (just click on it to select), and then go to Effect > Color Correction > Leave Color (Figure 2, below).
Step 3: Choose a Color to IsolateAs soon as you apply the effect, you will notice that the Effect Controls panel becomes visible (if it doesn't, select Window > Effect Controls). In the Effect Controls panel, do the following:
Step 4: Get Rid of an Unwanted ColorThere are occasions in which this effect will not work to your expectations. There might be similar colors in other parts of the image that did not turn grayscale with the effect. If this is the case, you need to take a few additional steps. Begin by duplicating the layer. Select the layer and choose Edit> Duplicate or use the shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + d. You should now have two layers in your composition.
Select the bottom layer and delete the effect from the Effect Controls Panel by clicking on the effect and then pressing Delete on your keyboard. With the bottom layer still selected, choose Effect > Color Correction > Hue/Saturation.
Right after you apply this effect, locate the Effect Controls panel. Choose the Master Saturation values of the effect and lower its value to 0 (Figure 4, below). This will turn your lower layer into a grayscale video and you'll be able to use this to get rid of the unwanted color that still exists on your top layer.
Step 5: Create a Moving MaskThe best way to "cut a hole" on the top layer is by creating a mask. Because this is a moving video, this will have to be a moving mask.Click on the top layer and choose the Pen Tool. Next, select RotoBezier from the Pen Tool options. Create a loose selection around the color that you would like to isolate. With that layer still selected, press the letter m. Then choose the Selection Tool from the tools panels (or press the letter v). You should not be using the Pen Tool anymore.
Next, keyframe the Mask Path. Then move the CTI (Edit line) to the end of the composition and move the individual points so that the color that you would like to isolate is still inside the mask.
To move the individual vertex points, open the Composition Panel (Monitor). Use the selection tool and deselect the mask by clicking somewhere outside of it. Select the desired vertex point and move it.
You will notice that just the fact that you moved that one vertex point created a new keyframe in the Timeline. Move the other vertex points until the mask is where it needs to be (Figure 5, below).
Next, move the CTI left toward the beginning of thecomposition and move the vertex points of the maskagain (this will create a new keyframe). Do the same toward the end until you have keyframed the entire clip.
Note: If your clip is 10 seconds long, keyframe in this order:
Step 6: Feather the Mask (if Necessary)
You should now have a very good color isolation effecton your clip (Figure 6, below).

American Samoa Gov't; Hawaiian Airlines v.
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, Appellant
AMERICAN SAMOA GOVERNMENT ex rel. AFAESE UIKIRIFI, Appellee
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, Appellant
AMERICAN SAMOA GOVERNMENT ex rel. GEORGE NERU, Appellee
High Court of American Samoa Appellate Division
AP No. 5-89
AP No. 6-89
October 10, 1989
Airline's role in its Contract of Carriage exonerating the airline from all liability for irreplaceable articles, valuable items, religious or ceremonial fiats and artifacts, samples, and goods for resale included in passenger's baggage was contrary to public policy and void, at least as applied to personal property that was neither fragile, perishable, inherently dangerous, nor uniquely valuable. [13ASR2d6]
An airline may not limit its liability for provable direct or consequential damage resuming from the disappearance of, damage to, or delay in delivery of a passenger's personal property, including baggage, in its custody to an amount less than $1250 for each passenger. 14 C.F.R. § 254.4.
Federal regulation prohibiting limitation of airline liability to an amount less than $1250 per passenger for "personal property, including baggage" is not limited only to baggage. 14 C.F.R. § 254.4.
Auto parts, clothing, and modestly priced mats are not the type of goods --such as live animals, jewelry, fragile, perishable, or inherently dangerous items, or items with unique value ---which an airline may reject from carriage altogether, or for which it may require increased payment or a release or other condition before agreeing to carry the goods.
Language in airline ticket limiting airline's liability for lost baggage adequately notifies passenger of such limited liability where language is conspicuous and understandable, even though the language deviates from that provided in federal regulation. 14 C.F.R. § 254.5(b).
Language suggested in federal regulation to give notice of monetary limitations on airline's liability for passengers' baggage is not mandatory; alternative language that effectively notifies passengers is permitted. 14 C.F.R. § 254.5(b).
Before CANBY,* Acting Associate Justice, THOMPSON,** Acting Associate Justice, OLO, Associate Judge, and VAIVAO, Associate Judge.
Counsel: For Appellant, Charles V. Ala'ilima
For Appellee, Tauivi Tuinei, Assistant Attorney General
Per Thompson, J.:
The Uikirifi Case
Appellee Uikirifi made two trips on Hawaiian Airlines from Honolulu to Pago Pago, one on August 7, 1987, and another on [13ASR2d7] September 17, 1989. On the August 7th trip the airline lost two of Uikirifi's bags containing clothing which he valued at $1,926.64. On the September 17th trip the airline lost nine pieces of luggage containing clothing and "fine mats" valued by Uikirifi at $5,055.24. In a trial de novo in the Trial Division, the trial court rendered judgment in favor of Uikirifi but limited his recovery to $1,250.00 for each of the two trips, a total of $2,500.00, plus $129.00 which Uikirifi had paid in excess baggage charges. [ASG ex rel Afaese Uikirifi v. Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., 10 A.S.R.2d 31 (1989).]
The Neru Case
Appellee Neru made one trip on Hawaiian Airlines on February 8, 1987. The airline lost two of Neru's bags. The lost bags contained auto parts which Neru valued at $2,286.70. In a trial de novo in the Trial Division, the trial court awarded Neru the full amount of his claim, $2,286.70. [Id.]
The Appeal
Hawaiian Airlines appeals. Uikirifi and Neru do not. Hawaiian argues that by its Contract of Carriage, incorporated by reference into the airline tickets which Uikirifi and Neru bought, Hawaiian is exempt from any liability for the lost baggage claims asserted against it. Hawaiian contends that its Contract of Carriage exclusion applies, because Uikirifi's clothing and fine mats and Neru's auto parts were the kind of baggage described in Hawaiian's Contract of Carriage Rule 26(B)(2), for which Hawaiian has no liability in the event of loss or damage. Alternatively, Hawaiian argues its liability for the lost baggage is limited to $1,250.00 per passenger per trip, and the trial court should have limited Neru's recovery to this amount.
Hawaiian's Contract of Carriage Rule 26(B)(2) provides in pertinent part:
HA [Hawaiian Airlines] assumes no liability for irreplaceable
articles and/or valuable items; ... religious or ceremonial mats
and artifacts; ...samples and goods for resale; ...included in a
passenger's baggage with or without knowledge of HA.
[emphasis added] . [13ASR2d8]
This section differs from subsection (B)(1) immediately preceding it in the Contract of Carriage. Subsection (B)(1) begins with a modifying introductory clause: "When HA has exercised the ordinary standard of care it shall not be liable for. .." damage to perishable or fragile articles under certain circumstances. Thus, while subsection (B)(1) purports to absolve Hawaiian from liability only when it has not been negligent, subsection (B)(2) purports to absolve Hawaiian from all liability in any case in which a passenger's baggage is lost, if the baggage is of a type described in the subsection.
Hawaiian's Rule 26(B)(2), at least insofar as Hawaiian seeks to apply it to the kind of baggage Uikirifi and Neru shipped, is contrary to public policy and void; the rule attempts to exonerate Hawaiian Airlines from all liability due to its own negligence for the loss of or damage to baggage it carries on the airline. See Klicker v. Northwest Airlines, Inc., 563 F.2d 1310, 1313-14 (9th Cir. 1977). Hawaiian argues that it has no way, short of disruptive and time consuming searches of passengers' baggage, to know what its passengers are shipping, and therefore it should be liable only for the loss of or damage to the kind of baggage a passenger typically takes along for his own personal use and comfort.
Hawaiian suggests that there are, at minimum, two categories of baggage which come into play in the cases now before us: "passenger baggage" which it defines as that taken for personal use and comfort, and "unusual or valuable items of inventory"; it argues that while it might be appropriate to impute to it knowledge, and hence its acceptance for carriage, of personal property within its definition of "passenger baggage, " it should not be forced to assume liability, even in a limited amount, for its carriage of other classes of baggage. It argues that Uikirifi's and Neru's lost baggage fits into the category of "unusual or valuable items of inventory," and as a result Hawaiian is contractually exonerated from all liability for the loss of this baggage. We disagree.
First, Hawaiian's argument overlooks 14 C.F.R. § 254.4 (1984). This section provides in pertinent part that:
[A]n air carrier shall not limit its liability for provable direct
or consequential damage resuming from the disappearance
of, damage to, or delay in delivery of a passenger's personal
property, including baggage, in its custody to an amount less
than $1250 for each passenger. [13ASR2d9]
Id. (emphasis added). A reasonable reading of this section would be that Hawaiian may not limit its liability down to zero. The section expressly applies to "personal property, including baggage." It does not limit its application only to "baggage." Since the claims made by Uikirifi and Neru were for personal property which was contained in the bags which they shipped with Hawaiian, Hawaiian should not be able to limit its liability to less than the $1,250.00 prescribed by 14 C.F.R. § 254.4.
Second, and of equal if not greater significance, the lost baggage in the present cases does not involve fragile or perishable items, nor does it involve personal property such as live animals, jewelry , or inherently dangerous items or items having a unique value which an airline may be permitted to reject from carriage altogether, or for which it may require an increased payment, or for which it may demand a release or other condition before agreeing to carry the goods. We deal here only with auto parts, clothing, and "fine mats." Insofar as the "fine mats" are concerned, the shipment was for 270 mats which Uikirifi valued at a total of $2, 700.00, or the rather modest amount of $10.00 per mat. As to the clothing, there is nothing unusual about baggage containing clothing, and as to the auto parts, it certainly cannot be said they represented items of any unique nature or special value.
We conclude that Hawaiian Airlines may not absolve itself from all liability for the loss of the Uikirifi and Neru baggage. We turn now to a consideration of the question whether Hawaiian Airlines effectively limited its liability to $1,250.00 for Neru's lost baggage. (1)
In Neru's case, the trial court concluded that Hawaiian Airlines' notice of the limitation of its liability for lost baggage contained in the ticket Neru bought was ineffective because, although the notice was sufficiently "conspicuous, " the language of the notice was deficient. It also concluded that, while the language of the notice of Hawaiian Airlines' liability limitation which appeared in the jacket into which the ticket was placed was adequate, this notice in the jacket was not sufficiently "conspicuous" because the notice was hidden from view by an inside jacket flap. Because we conclude that the notice in the ticket was itself sufficient to impart notice of Hawaiian Airlines' limitation of [13ASR2d10] liability for lost baggage, we do not consider the sufficiency of the notice in the jacket, either as to language or conspicuousness. (2)
The notice of limitation of liability for lost or damaged baggage set forth in the ticket Neru bought from Hawaiian Airlines provided in pertinent part:
NOTICE OF BAGGAGE LIABILITY LIMITATIONS Liability
for loss, delay, or damage to baggage is limited as follows unless a
higher value is declared in advance and additional charges are paid:
...(2) For travel wholly between U.S. points, to $1,250 per passenger
on most carriers (a few have lower limits). Excess valuation may not
be declared on certain types of valuable articles. Carriers assume
no liability for fragile or perishable articles. Further information may
be obtained from the carrier .
In Diero v. American Airlines, Inc., 816 F.2d 1360, 1365 (9th Cir. 1987), this same language was determined to be "conspicuous and understandable, especially the notice in relatively large type under the heading 'NOTICE OF BAGGAGE LIABILITY LIMITATIONS.'" Id. In the present case, the trial court viewed this language as inadequate because it deviated from the language of 14 C.F.R.§ 254.5(1), and in so doing the language did not provide adequate notice of Hawaiian's particular limitation of liability. "
Section 254.5(b) sets forth language which, if used by an airline, will be sufficient to limit its liability for lost baggage. The language reads: "Federal rules require any limit on an airline's baggage liability to be at least $1250 per passenger." 14 C.F.R. § 254.5(b) (1984). But this is not the only language which will suffice. Section 254.5(a) permits an airline to use alternative language consisting of "Notice of any monetary limitation on its baggage liability to passengers. " 14 C.F.R. § 254.5(a) (1984).
Given the substantial similarity between the language on the Hawaiian Airlines ticket and the statutory language of 14 C.F.R. § 2 [13ASR2d11] 254.5(b), bearing in mind that alternative language is permissible (see 14 C.F .R. §§ 254.5(a) (1984)), and considering the decision in the Diero case by which language identical to the language contained in Neru's ticket was found to be "understandable and conspicuous," we conclude that the language of the notice of limitation of liability on the Hawaiian Airlines ticket which Neru bought was sufficient to impart notice of Hawaiian Airlines' limitation of liability. (3)
The judgment in favor of Uikirifi for $2,500.00 plus excess baggage charges of $129.00 is AFFIRMED. The judgment in favor of Neru for $2,286.70 is reduced to $1,250.00.
* Honorable William C. Canby, Jr. Judge, United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, serving by designation of the Secretary of the Interior.
** Honorable David R. Thompson, Judge, United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, serving by designation of the Secretary of the Interior .
1. Uikirifi does not appeal the trial court's limitation of his recovery to $1,250.00 per trip plus the excess baggage charges. Hawaiian Airlines' alternative argument by which it seeks to limit its liability to $1,250.00 applies only to Neru's case.
2. The trial court determined that the notice of limitation of liability in the ticket was sufficiently "conspicuous"; it found fault only with the wording of the notice. No party has raised the "conspicuousness" issue on appeal as it applies to the ticket, and we therefore do not consider it.
3. The trial court found that the ticket was sufficient to incorporate by reference Hawaiian Airlines. Contract of Carriage, which contains its rules for the shipment of baggage and other property and which limits its liability to $1,250.00 for lost or damaged baggage. No party challenges the district court's resolution of the "incorporated by reference" issue, and we do not consider it in this appeal.

|With Margaret Pratt. This was the scene of a near-death experience. Arriving from sea level without acclimatizing, I was unsteady and took a surprise slip at the top of a snow couloir while descending at dusk. Since I had just belayed my inexperienced partner down, I had a rope on, but with a full runout. The fall line took me onto a vertical drop to horrendous rock terrain before I could arrest. Just before the first life-changing or ending impact, the rope stopped me: it had wrapped around and dug into a 6" edge of a suncup high above to provide some unexpected natural pro, made of nothing but snow!
A great peak, but be careful.

|My group (two guys and I) set out early in the morning on an attempt of the East Face but accidentally ended up climbing the Northeast Chimney (one of the best mistakes I have ever made). It's more challenging than the East Face and requires more rock climbing skill than the Owen Spalding route up the Grand Teton which I did a few days before Teewinot. We did eventually come to a point where we couldn't downclimb what we had just come up, so the only way to get down was to summit first and try to figure it out from there. Other groups were surprised when they summited and found two guys and a girl all talking on cell phones trying to figure out how to get down! Luckily we were able to figure it out.

|My husband and climbing partner, bthere, claims we climbed this on our 1 year anniversary. Not true, we climbed it days prior to our wedding. This I know because I was certain my family would end up at my funeral instead. The north face was adventurous, but REALLY lose rock and poor pro. One of my anchors consisted of a cordellete slung around a small, loose boulder that I sat on top of in an effort to make a stronger anchor. Due to the loose rock all I could think during the entire climb was "please let there be no people underneath this climb".

|Great climb, tougher on the legs and knees than anything else, one mistake on the climb though was to not bring an ice ax, the snow patches about 3/4 of the way up are made much easier and quicker when an ice ax is available. Also be sure to bring lots of water as there are precious few run-off springs on the route in which to fill up. Great, fun climb perfect for begginers or people looking for a fun and challenging day!

|Solo ascent, like most of my ventures. Climbed base to summit in just over 4hrs...would've been less, but I spent an hour futzing around looking for the route. Only one pitch with any real exposure, but it was enough to make things interesting...oh yes. And downclimbing it was even more exciting. At least the rock was firm. Magnificent, unique view from the summit. LOOONG way down, hard on the knees. Met three parties on the descent, all real friendly folks. My car was an oven when I got back.
