I've Been Here and There - Streaming Video
I've Been Here and There - Streaming Video
As the image you displayed below in your follow up post shows, HDR and the resultant tone mapping does not have to lead to an "artificial" looking or "stylized" image but can in fact lead to an even more realistic one. (very nice image by the by, ((we won't touch on the subject matter hopefully images of same aren't taboo! )) ).
Since the way we perceive a dynamic image with our eyes constantly adjusting to changes in shadow and light can not be captured in a static image of the same scene HDR is nothing more an attempt to bridge that gap.
I guess its a reaction to such comments as that made by that crazydrummercrimial dude and just feel HDR or the process of trying bring together a set of images that come closer to what the human eye sees has gotten a "bad rap".
See, its all that crazy drummers fault!
HDR is like Auto-tune... used properly it makes things better without being overly noticeable.
Misused and well it grates on your senses... of course some people really like both. Have you heard what passes for music these days!
Yeah, like when digital first came out and many holdouts cried that it was "cheating" and unworthy of being called photography!
(saddly I was among them, at least in part, and held on to film till around 2000, "ain't nothin' out there better than my trusty ol' Nikon F !" or so I thought at the time! Ha Ha!)
Its all good.....
Not a HDR shot, but it looks about as cold as it felt with the black Tron-like effects.

All About Lindsay Lohan's New Dude, Avi Snow
Lindsay Lohan's been having a rough week. Just like all the other weeks, actually. But aside from rumored sugar daddies, there's one person on whom she's been leaning.
Here's what we know about him so far.
NAME: Avi Snow
OCCUPATION: He's a guitarist for the indie band City of the Sun and a club promoter in New York.
WHERE THEY MET: We're not quite sure, but while sources say they've only been together for a few weeks and that the relationship is in its "early stages," she gave his band a shoutout on Twitter back in October. We also know that Avi was aboard the Mr. Pink jet that Lindsay barely caught to get to her Los Angeles court date on Monday, and that after her latest mug shot, she attended one of his shows at 41 Ocean in Santa Monica.
WHY HE MAY BE GOOD FOR HER: A source told the Daily Mail that while Lindsay is known for her party animal ways, this is a case of opposites attracting. "He's from a solid background and doesn't get involved with the drugs scene, he doesn't even drink much," the insider said. "Basically, he knows who is and likes control, [so] he could help Lindsay."

Hey guys, I plan on making a trip to the vet fairly soon to see if my bun is indeed deaf, but in the meantime, I was wondering if I could get some help?
Moonie is chewing on our rug, and no matter how loud I yell, clap or stomp, nothing startles bun into stopping. I've tried nudging away, but that doesnt seem to be working either.
What in the world am I going to do to train bunny not to chew on things theyre not allowed to if they can't hear me ??
Posted By LittlePuffyTail on 09/02/2012 09:33 AM
First of all, I have to comment on how incredibly cute the bun in your avatar pic is! Is that Moonie? He looks like a younger version on my Bindi Loo.
Bindi Loo is at least partially deaf. He doesn't react very much to noise. Sometimes a particularly high pitch noise will get his attention. When he's being bad and chewing something or rattling the X-pen bars, I usually physically go over and direct his attention to something else. Often, I'll just scoop him up and bring him to sit on the couch for a minute. Sometimes, that method can be a pain in the butt because I have to do it like a dozen times repeatedly before he gets the idea and stops. He's very stubborn.
Yes, that's Moonie in my avatar :3 He's a REW mini lop just like Bindi Loo haha!
I have some pics of Moonie posted in the Welcome forum.
I'll try the physically picking up and putting on the couch thing, and see if that works..
Thank you for the advice everyone, I'm still welcome to more.

Drawing from classic American literature but rooted in today's New York City, "What Maisie Knew" is an affecting portrait of a family coming apart, as seen from the vantage point of a six-year-old girl who watches the adults around her behave like children.
Susanna (Julianne Moore) is a pushy but seductive rock and roll icon married to Beale (Steve Coogan), a charming, distracted art dealer. Unnerved by the prospect of middle-aged stasis and drawn to other lovers, the couple eventually divorces. Maisie (Onata Aprile), their only child, is caught in the middle of it all, a flesh-and-blood bargaining tool who winds up being shuttled back and forth between her parents as they each attempt to start their lives afresh with new partners. Quietly precocious and a keen observer, Maisie begins to understand how essentially selfish, irresponsible and damaged her parents really are. With time their new relationships disintegrate as well, and Maisie is forced to consider whether or not she should try to construct for herself a whole new family altogether.

Homage to the unsurpassed savior, the Lord of Oddiyana.
Now that you've found this precious human life with freedom and richness,
Take care not to squander it unconsciously.
Push yourself to uncover the meaning of this life.
Your mind is the source of everything.
It is skilled in deception and manipulation, and beguiling when unexamined.
Once you look into it, it is without basis or root.
It comes from nowhere, stays nowhere and goes nowhere.
Everything, including samsara and nirvana,
Is but a reflection of pure and impure mind;
In reality, neither samsara nor nirvana exist.
The source of compassionate awareness
Is primordially empty. Though free from characteristics,
It is not just a barren nothingness
But is luminous and naturally present.
Pristine awareness is not captured by names and labels.
The endless unfolding of samsara and nirvana pours forth as its radiance.
At the same time, there is no rift between the place from where all these come and that which is coming;
Remain in that nondual place.
Unborn dharmakaya Rigpa
Arises naturally without cause or condition.
Alert, fresh and naked,
It is uncolored by dualistic mind
And unpolluted by intellectual ideas.
Stay in that spontaneously arisen meditation.

BMH and Grace Cottage probe collaboration
BRATTLEBORO -- With big changes in health care looming, Windham County's two hospitals have agreed to work together to find ways to save money and become more efficient.
Brattleboro Memorial Hospital and Grace Cottage Hospital will work with Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center to find ways for both Windham County hospitals to better serve their patients.
"With all of the changes in health care reform we felt like this was an interesting opportunity to start this dialogue," said BMH President Steve Gordon. "Traditionally we have collaborated in the past and we want to see if there are better ways we can both serve Windham County."
Dartmouth-Hitchcock and Helms & Company, a Concord, N.H. healthcare management firm, will conduct interviews and assessments over the next few months at both hospitals.
Doctors, patients, administrators and staff will all be asked to take part in the study, which Gordon said he hopes will be available some time in the fall.
Grace Cottage, with 19 beds, specializes in acute and rehabilitative care, while the 61-bed Brattleboro Memorial focuses on primary and specialty services.
Both hospitals routinely send patients who need serious surgery to Dartmouth Hitchcock.
Gordon stressed that both BMH and Grace Cottage are in sound financial shape and the study is being done to address the shifting landscape brought on by state and federal changes in the healthcare system.
"This is being driven by the boards," Gordon said. "It is a good time to do a study like this when you are not facing financial stress."
Meg Cleary, who is interim CEO at Grace Cottage, said the Townshend hospital wanted to look at all of its systems before hiring a full time leader.
Cleary said the discussions to do a top-to-bottom assessment started as the board began considering how it would hire the next CEO, and Grace Cottage approached BMH about looking at both institutions at once.
Cleary is also a principal with Helms & Company.
"The board understands they have strategic work to do in thinking about the changes in health care reform," said Cleary. "The board very quickly determined that they have good partners in BMH and Dartmouth Hitchcock and we are really looking forward to determining how we can do a better job at sharing services."
Along with questioning staff the public will be involved and the hospitals hope to hold three focus groups in the coming months to gather input.
"Health care is changing so much it requires us to bust out of our comfort zone," Cleary said. "It's not only about saving money it's also about reaching better outcomes."

What drives you to get out of bed in the morning? Hunger for food, a full bladder, a sense of duty, a need to earn money, a passion for your work, your baby's cry, fear of being late for work, hunger for success, a sense of adventure?
Before reading on, have a think about all the things that get you moving during a typical day. As well as some of the above, perhaps you are driven by love, sex, exercise, chocolate, alcohol, drugs, helping others, a need for order, curiosity, a wish to learn, friendship, self-improvement, high drama, a need to impress, to be right, to feel valued, to set a score, to atone, to hide, to be seen.
Take a moment to list the top ten things that drive you through a typical day. Write them down.
It's easy to see how your drives affect how you act each day. Hunger drives you to find and eat food. Thirst drives you to reprioritise all other plans while you find and drink fluid of some kind. A caffeine addiction drives you to plan your morning around the required number of coffee, tea or coke hits. A need to be right drives you to argue the point instead of negotiating a win-win situation or learning something new. If you're driven to help others, you may avoid asking for help. If you're driven by a sense of adventure, you'll take risks, and if you're driven by a need for high drama to keep life interesting you'll stir it up good.
All of this is easy to understand. Our drives ultimately dictate our actions, and our actions dictate the outcomes of our lives.
It's all well and good to acknowledge what drives you and to see how it affects the way you go about your life, but what about those drives you DON'T know about? Your unconscious drives – those deeply embedded beyond your awareness – have a strong grip of the wheel. In any battle between the drives you know about (your conscious drives) and your unconscious drives, the unconscious wins.
Imagine, for example, feeling driven to succeed in your career – making all the right moves, getting excited about the prospects, heading for the right goals – yet having a conflicting unconscious drive to avoid commitments of all kinds, including commitment to career. In this scenario you're likely to wonder why things never quite succeed in the way you imagined, why unforeseen circumstance seems to conspire against you at the last moment, why 'bad luck' seems to dog you, and why, if you listen very carefully, you hear a whisper of relief at the back of your mind as you think, 'Ah well, at least I'm free to ….'
This is where dreams come in.
And in a simple, easy to interpret way too.
Have you ever dreamed of being in a car, in the passenger or back seat, with someone else driving? It's a common dream. The person driving the car – the person driving you somewhere – represents a driving force in your life at the time of the dream.
It's usually a car. We 'drive' cars, and, as dreams often use word play, cars can symbolise your drive or motivation. The person behind the wheel symbolises the prime driving force. However your driving force might be driving any vehicle in your dream, or driving an animal – either riding it or shepherding it.
If you dream of being driven by someone you know, your father perhaps, then ask yourself if you're driven by your father's expectations, or by the kinds of beliefs your father subscribed to. And remember, we're talking unconscious drives here, so you may think you're very different from your father, but if your father's driving you in your dreams, then there's an aspect of your father driving you deep in your unconscious. Once you think about this possibility and examine your life for evidence of its effect, you'll see it. That's the way you catch an unconscious drive – getting the clue from a dream and then collecting the evidence from your waking life. You can then decide whether this drive is working for you or against you, and disable it if you wish.
As soon as you're aware of an unconscious drive, it's no longer unconscious, so it loses its power. From that point forward you can observe the way you respond in life and question the driving force behind your response. For enduring results you can apply dream alchemy practices.
When interpreting a driving dream, write down three words to describe the personality or approach of the person driving your dream vehicle. For example, if Jack (an acquaintance of yours) is driving your car, you might write 'proud, dutiful, reliable'. Ask yourself if, at the time of your dream, your actions may have been driven by pride, duty or reliability. (It's likely to be at least one of the three on your list.) Look for evidence in your life, especially in the day or two before your dream. What actions did you take that could be explained by pride, duty or reliability?
What if your dream car is driven by someone you don't know in waking life? Your dream driver's character will have been evident in the dream by the actions taken, the way you were treated, or the gut feel you got from the person. For example, if your dream driver seemed really helpful – perhaps even over-the-top helpful – then it's likely that you were driven by an unconscious need to help at the time of your dream. In this example, if the dream worked out well, then all is good, but if the dream did not work out well, or remained unresolved, then ask yourself why you're driven to help others and why this might not be 'getting you anywhere'.
If your driver isn't getting you anywhere in your dream, then that drive isn't getting you anywhere in your life.
Your dream driver might take you back to the past – perhaps your school days, somewhere you used to work or live. This often indicates the origin of the drive.
We think of drive as a positive thing. It's good to have drive, to be motivated. But we can be driven by negative as well as positive factors. We can be driven by greed, by a need to dominate, by a need to avoid a feeling or issue. We can be driven to prove ourselves to someone, to sabotage our plans to avoid the things we think success will bring, to appease, to suffer the pain we think we deserve.
There's a difference between driving and being driven, but is there a difference between having drive and being driven? Maybe, maybe not, but I can guarantee that if you take this question and contemplate it today, you'll be wiser by the bedtime and set up to dream of drives yet to be revealed.

For the last 31 years, Yosemite Park Ranger Laurel Boyers has had your dream job. She's been working for the park, patrolling and managing the wilderness backcountry of Yosemite. Most park visitors (over 98%) never travel through the backcountry, but for the 1 1/2% that can get away from the hotels, traffic, and shops of Yosemite Valley, the experience can't be beat. I can only imagine what it would be like to have a career working outside in such a remarkable natural wonder. Our friend Steve Sergeant has put together a tribute piece to her career on his WildeBeat website:
Audio Program : Thanks Ranger Boyers!
In the interview, Laurel describes one of her final hikes as Wilderness Manager,
I just did my swan song of a sort, and took a trip where I went from Wawona, all the way up through Tuolumne Meadows, taking some of my favorite routes, all the way to that furthest northeast part, and then back down to Hetchy, so rode the entire length of the park. It takes ten days to ride across this park, which is quite interesting. That's not trying to make it longer, or whatever. And I think that's quite an important part of the wildness of this park, to think that you do have to cross a road once, you've got to cross the Tioga Road. But, Aldo Leopold said that wilderness should be big enough to take a week long pack trip. And lo and behold, in Yosemite it takes ten days, at least, to cross it, which is pretty exciting to me.
She concludes the interview by saying, "it's been a great honor to have this job. I'll be sorry to leave."
The WildeBeat produces a lot of stories that I think would be of interest to National Parks Traveler readers, including a recent two part series called 'Ranger Changes', which examines the changing role of the back country ranger in the National Park Service. It's worth a listen.

James Hoggan | November 24, 2009
By James Hoggan • Tuesday, November 24, 2009 - 11:05
Lawrence Solomon, the National Post's champion of imagined climate change Deniers complained in a weekend column that Anna Maria Tremonti, host of the CBC radio show, The Current, was too hard on him and too soft on me in a series of interviews last week.
In this, Solomon reminds me of some PR clients I have had over the years, people who, in the midst of a problem of their own making complain about the questions reporters ask rather than accepting that they looked bad because they didn't have good answers.
Solomon's in a tough spot because nobody could gracefully answer the questions he was asked.
He wants to say that climate change isn't happening, even when an overwhelming majority of the world's best scientists say otherwise. He wants to call people like the UK astrophysicist Nigel Weiss "deniers," when they respond that his work is a "slanderous fabrication." And when Tremonti challenges him on these assertions, he blames her for treating him roughly.
Solomon should understand: all questions are hardball when you don't know – or can't stomach – the answers.
As for answers, Solomon demanded some from me in that same weekend column. He posed a series of questions that he wished Tremonti had asked, actually going so far as to attribute them to her in his presentation.
I have repeated the questions here verbatim, though I have replaced her name with his. Tremonti is too good and impartial reporter to have made the minor blunders or major ideological assumptions characterized in these questions. My answers follow.
Solomon: Mr. Hoggan, during this interview you have three times cited NASA in making your point that the science is settled on climate change. How does that square with the comments two years ago from the head of NASA, Dr. Michael Griffin, a scientist with six degrees, who said that global warming is nothing to worry about? Or with calculations by a group of NASA scientists, recently published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, which cites reduced solar activity as the most important cause of stagnating global warming?
This is a denier industry classic: quote an "expert" who has no expertise. Dr. Griffin is a brilliant aerospace engineer. He has seven degrees, not six, but none of them is in climate or atmospheric science, and he has never done research in the field. It's relevant too that this reassuringly conscientious George W. Bush appointee later apologized to his NASA colleagues for commenting outside his field and for embarrassing the organization.
As to the article in GRL, you have to be more specific, but perhaps the answer arises in the next question.
Solomon: You say the debate over whether the globe is warming or cooling is taking place at the Kiwanis Club and small community newspapers, not among real climatologists or in peer-reviewed journals like Science. How do you explain the Science magazine article of last month, entitled "What Happened to Global Warming? Scientists Say Just Wait a Bit," in which scientists grapple with whether the globe is warming or cooling and whether their models are working? And how do you explain the stir caused in September at the UN's World Climate Conference, where Mojib Latif of Kiel University — one of your own — shocked the gathering of 1,500 climate scientists by saying that temperatures could fall over the next two decades, again contradicting the past predictions of climate models?
How fast humans are warming the earth.
That shouldn't give journalists license to imagine there is an argument over whether humans are doing so. And regardless of how many times Solomon does something like this, it is still shocking to witness his cherry-picking of facts. For example, he quotes the Science article headline without acknowledge the thrust of the article itself. Here, for example, is the first sentence:
"The blogosphere has been having a field day with global warming's apparent decade-long stagnation. But climatologists are finding that although global warming has indeed paused, it is likely to return with a vengeance within a few years."
As for Mojib Latif, the thrust of the good professor's presentation at the World Climate Conference was that global warming is real and inexorable, but that we should talk openly about the possibility of short-term lulls, in part to prevent unscrupulous people from suggesting that those lulls indicate that warming is somehow "over" or not proven.
Solomon: You paint the corporate sector as working behind the scenes to undermine global warming legislation such as the Waxman-Markey bill, which the U.S. House of Representatives passed recently. Yet it is well known that this bill was largely written by a powerful lobby called the United States Climate Action Partnership. This lobby is dominated by a long list of multinationals, including major oil multinationals that you love to excoriate such as BP, Shell and ConocoPhillips. Doesn't this support the claims of the skeptics, who point to the immense profits that the multinationals stand to make should global warming legislation pass?
I never have suggested that corporate America is endemically corrupt. Neither do I contest the legitimate contributions that corporations can make to the public debate and to good policy making. My complaint is with those corporations that have been implicated in the backchannel promotion of disinformation, in the financing of anti-science front groups, phony grassroots organizations and "think" tanks that have, in fact, corrupted the public conversation.
As to whether this is some complicated play for a profit, how can the deniers be so worried about imagined future profit on an environmentally benign green technology, and yet so oblivious to the fact that Exxon has been the most profitable corporation on earth for years and that the leading U.S. coal companies have been making more money in recent years than at any time in history.
In a desperate – and sometimes desperately disingenuous – effort to protect those profits, these players, through organizations like the American Petroleum Institute and the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity have acted with inexcusable misdirection to create confusion in the climate discourse.
Solomon: I'd like to follow up on why my listeners should trust someone in the PR business to be impartial in this debate. When I look at your client list on your firm's corporate website, I see that it includes ALCOA among your firm's blue chip clients. ALCOA happens to be part of this lobby, the U.S. Climate Action Partnership, that's pushing climate change legislation. Can you explain why exactly you don't have a conflict of interest here, when you are attacking those who would derail your client's legislation? While you're at it, can you elaborate on the "Hoggan Credo" that you advertise on your website. The way I read it, your advice to corporations is that they need PR services, but that they should be sure that the public doesn't know it's having a PR job done on it.
I am happy to be judged by the company I keep, by the transparency of my actions and by the accuracy of the positions that I put forward, whether I am working for clients or pursuing pro bono advocacy on issues that I believe are critically important to the survival of humankind.
On the issue of climate, I am not engaged in defending a specific client's interests. I am attacking people who lie, mislead or spread confusion on climate change science – especially when they do so without acknowledging their own associations and sources income.
As to the Hoggan credo: thanks for bringing it up. I cannot stand accountable for the way you read it. I can't begin to explain the way you read or misread any number of documents. But here's what the Hoggan Credo says:
That's the advice we give our clients, in part because we find it works really well. People who do the right thing deserve to have a good reputation.
And we're proud to work with such people, to make sure their stakeholders know about the right things they do. It's so much better than defending the rights of oil and coal companies' right to deny the science of climate change because they know it will end their profitable, but unforgivably destructive free ride.

Good spin. Let's divert attention from climategate. If this site ever wants to be taken seriously, you need to take a stand right now! Otherwise just post a picture of a Polar Bear standing on an ice cube and be done with it.

Yup, Ya betcha
Let's take a stand RIGHT NOW and suppress comments that are found to be uncomfortable (read: accurate) and not beneficial to THE CONSENSUS.
It shouldn't be too difficult to find precedents for this type of behaviour. It's pure survival instinct; who could argue with that?
But; isn't this what got us in trouble in the first place?
Perhaps we should ask the good people over at Realclimate how to best go about it. Have they started answering their correspondence, yet?
Richard Littlemore replied on Permalink
Have you a point?
shooshmon replied on Permalink
It is really amazing
Yeah it would be big of this blog if they made a statement about this climategate scandal and said they would not use these scientists points of view or published material. This blog does not have to recant their position on global warming, merely state that some have manipulated the data. The thing that everyone should be concerned about is that either way, we need accurate temperature measurements, whether they be going down or up. I think this blog should embrace scientists like Richard Lindzen and Roy Spencer. Roy Spencer is one of the only people I know who has said he could be totally wrong about global warming and that is a credit to his character and honesty. Lindzen is just brilliant, I don't think anybody comes close to his knowledge of the climate.

Please show any manipulated data. There is none, is there? Not once you get past the indignant arm-waving and deliberate misrepresentations. And your own wide-eyed gullibility.
If you want to see manipulation and weaselly behaviour the "honest" Spencer and "brilliant" Lindzen would be an excellent place to start.
Be as you wish to seem.
As Socrates put it: Be as you wish to seem.
Good answers. I'm still trying to get my head around the phrase "stagnating global warming."
Statement from the Met, NERC & Royal Society
I had been hoping we would see this type of response from major scientific organizations related to this latest dust up over the e-mails.
I suspect others worldwide will do similar soon.
Been waiting for this confrontation far too long. Looks like the wait will soon be over.

What we are witnessing here is the berlin wall falling one brick at a time. As more and more people uncover the scientific and ethical abuses the wall of corruption built around the truth is starting to crack. George Monbiot, Canada's foremost global warming fearmonger has bolted from the Desmog PR team and said he was wrong to not question the faulty science he was fed and he should have been more SCEPTICAL.
I just started a blog to talk about this stuff and to help get the information out. The most recent article I have posted debunks trebonti's biased interview. It would be greatly appreciate it if a few of you would come and take a look and pass me some comments as I have seen some of the wise commentary you have all poseted in the past. cammackay.com
I'm sure desmog will come around eventually.
How dishonest of Cam
How dishonest of Cam to so mischaracterize what Monbiot has written.

Gotta love a Newbie!
Cam, you're so sweet spouting all the transparent denialist BS for us with such fresh enthusiasm! You're like Woody Allen in one of his early films describing how he won a bar fight by smashing his groin into his opponent's knee.
Wake up !!
Cam, I would like to suggest you spend less time spouting this nonsense and read what is being released NOW, today in fact.
Also you mentioned elsewhere you are on the side of truth…..
George Monbiot is in fact from the UK, NOT Canada.
Getting basic facts straight goes a l-o-n-g way to establishing credibility. So far you dont seem to be doing that well…. Cheers
One hesitates to address them, so I won't.
But one would think that anyone who has been on the intertoobz for 1 day, 8 hours would know enough to leave a link when blogwhoring.
Second, I was quite shocked by the news of Monbiot's conversion (again, a link would have been helpful) so I googled (http://www.google.ca/)around and found this:
I for one welcome our new overlords, The Knights Carbonic!
Just stay away from Ford Mustangs.

Global warming faith
It was a little naive of me to think you would do your own due diligence properly. Instead I guess you choose what to see what conforms to your religion.
In addition to Monbiots article yesterday outlining that jones should be fired and that the hacked e-mails are a critical blow to global warming. Today on the Guardians blog he appologised to readers for pumping the GW religion.
Under pressure from readers who wisely asked, if the science is settled, why hide data from FOIA requests, why fudge numbers, why try to stiffle critics. Monbiot appologised to readers and said he should have been a better journalist and investigated the claims made by GW alarmists rather than taking them at face value. In short he should have been more SCEPTICAL.
I guess now it's fair to say that Monbiot is now a climate change sceptic like the rest off us! Don't be the last to figure it out, ditch the religion now, its a false god!
Cam, you have been suckered.
Cam, you have been suckered. Monbiot did not say that the hacked e-mails were a critical blow to global warming. He wrote: "…But do these revelations justify the sceptics' claims that this is "the final nail in the coffin" of global warming theory? Not at all…"
And he wrote "…The hacked emails are a hard knock, but the science of global warming withstands much more than that."
And where did he apologize, if he did? In the satirical portion of his article? Can't you tell satire from reality?

major blow
funny, vj, when searching to see if monbiot said it was a critical blow the closest thing you evidently found was something about nails and coffins. so cam was suckered. and he sure was b/c the only thing remotely close that i found was when he said
"It's no use pretending this isn't a major blow." cam sure did get suckered. you were right , he didn't say critical.
as far as the apology, again, i guess i can't see the satire just like cam can't when monbiot says "
"I apologise. I was too trusting of some of those who provided the evidence I championed. I would have been a better journalist if I had investigated their claims more closely".
you can mis-lead a horse to the cool-aid, vj, but were not drinkin' it. peace, rich .
Where exactly is this
Where exactly is this apology? Provide a link and tell me which paragraph it is in, because I don't see it in Monbiot's article.

WASHINGTON, DC – House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement this morning regarding the Department of Labor's August employment report:
"The gain of 144,000 jobs in August is certainly good news for every American who secured employment last month. But the reality is that our economy must gain 150,000 jobs each month just to keep pace with population growth. And by that measure, this employment report for August clearly shows that the job market under President Bush is struggling and the American worker is bearing the brunt of the President's failed economic policies.
"This employment report virtually guarantees one thing: that President Bush will finish his four-year term with the worst record of job creation since the Great Depression. Even with the gains in August, the Bush Administration still has a net job loss of one million jobs during his term.
"Furthermore, it's clear that the Bush Administration has failed to live up to its promises. The President promised that his economic plan would create 5.5 million new jobs by the end of 2004, but he is on course to fall 4 million jobs short of that figure. That is not a record to run on, so he's running from it.
"The hard truth is, this Administration has no real job-creation plan beyond crossing its fingers and hoping. It's stunning that the President, in his 5,000-word acceptance speech last night, barely mentioned jobs and failed to articulate a pro-active, positive plan for creating more of them.
"If a CEO accumulated a record like that – a record of failure and a failure to articulate a clear strategy – you can bet that there would be a change at the top. Come November, the American people are going to be confronted with the same choice, and I believe they're going to embrace the pro-active, pro-growth agenda put forward by John Kerry and John Edwards and Congressional Democrats."

ATKINS - A 56-year-old woman reported to Pope County Sheriff's Deputy Bill McGlothlin last Saturday that approximately $500 in jewelry was missing from her residence on Reed Lane.
According to a report, the complainant stated that an Atkins woman came to her residence around 8:30 p.m., asked to use the restroom and later left the residence. The complainant stated that she entered the restroom after the suspect left and noticed that her jewelry box was open and discovered a gold wedding set, with an estimated value of $200, and a white gold wedding set, estimated at $300, were missing.
The complainant called the suspect on her cell phone and asked about the items. The suspect denied taking the items and hung up on the complainant, the report indicated.
-- ATKINS - A 58-year-old complainant reported to Deputy Bill McGlothlin on Thursday that two 30-packs of Coors Light beer was allegedly stolen from a refrigerator on the front porch of a residence on Twin Dykes Road.
A report indicated the complainant stated a 17-year-old Atkins male came to his residence at 2:30 a.m. and took the beer, which was valued at $45. The items were found in the alleged suspect's vehicle by the Atkins Police Department on the same date.
Juvenile pursuit
CLARKSVILLE - A 13-year-old female was transported to the Yell County Juvenile Detention Center in Danville after leading officers from four law enforcement agencies on a pursuit throughout Johnson County on Feb. 12.
The juvenile was left in a vehicle at a Clarksville business while her parents went shopping, according to authorities. The parents later reported the vehicle stolen after returning to discover it missing. Clarksville police joined Arkansas State Police Cpl. Brian Syfert after he witnessed the vehicle on Main Street.
Due to safety concerns for the juvenile driver, other drivers and citizens, sirens and emergency lights were discontinued after the age of the driver was discovered. Authorities continued to follow the vehicle, and Johnson County Sheriff's officers got behind the vehicle as it traveled east into Lamar.
After Lamar Police Chief Arron Arnold joined other pursuing units, the vehicle went north on Highway 123 and avoided an accident at the highway's intersection with Highway 164, authorities stated. Johnson County Sheriff's Sgt. Jimmy Dorney and Syfert set up stop sticks at Highway 164 and McGuire Road to stop the vehicle, but the juvenile stopped the vehicle before entering the area.
Sobriety checkpoint
CLARKSVILLE - Arkansas State Police troopers conducted a sobriety checkpoint on Highway 109 in Johnson County on Feb. 13 that resulted in five arrests and 14 warnings during a two-hour period.
Cpt. Ed Wolfe of Troop J Headquarters in Clarksville stated three arrests were DWI related and two resulted from criminal charges. The sobriety checkpoint was a result of an increased number of traffic fatalities stemming from possible use of alcohol.
Meth lab bust
CLARKSVILLE - Johnson County Sheriff's officers and agents with the Fifth Judicial District Drug Task Force seized another methamphetamine laboratory Feb. 4 in Hartman.
According to reports, the lab was discovered at a residence on Highway 64 and resulted in the arrests of a 39-year-old man and 24-year-old woman. They each were cited for manufacture of a controlled substance (methamphetamine) and conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance. Johnson County District Judge Len Bradley set their bond at $15,000 each on Feb. 6.

Li Na Reaches Australia Open Fourth Round, Zheng Ousted
Sixth seed Li Na is yet to drop a set at the Australian Open, having posted a 6-4, 6-1 win over 27th seed Sorana Cirstea in a little over an hour Friday.
Li, 30 years old, served for the first set at 5-2 but lost two straight games to the top-ranked Romanian before she reeled it in, extending her head-to-head lead over the 22-year-old to 4-1.
"Before the match I was a little bit nervous," said Li, adding that it was easier than she thought it would be. "I know she [hits] the ball like unbelievable, I never know if [the] next ball is in or out, I have to [be] ready for every second," she said.
Li said that since hiring Carlos Rodriguez, Justine Henin's former coach, in August 2012, she has seen an improvement in her game."Two days [into it], he changed technique of the serve, of the forehand," said Li, adding she has added more topspin to her groundstrokes instead of hitting flat.
Li is currently ranked sixth in the world, and her goal is to reach the top three in 2013. Her career-high rank of fourth is the equal-best ranking obtained by an Asian player, alongside Japan's Kimiko Date-Krumm. "I know it's tough, but if you didn't have a goal maybe you just feel like, oh, No. 6 also is pretty good," she said.
Friday's victory secured Li a place in the final 16 in Melbourne for the fourth consecutive year, where she will face 18th seed Julia Goerges, who defeated Zheng Jie 6-3, 1-6, 7-5. Goerges and Li have never met on the court.
Zheng made 24 unforced errors, compared with Georges's 56, and served for the match at 5-3 but was unable to close it out.
"I knew I [would] always have a chance to break her because her serve is not so huge. There is always a chance to fight back," said Georges.
Speaking about her match-up on Sunday against Li, the 24 year-old said it would be tough. "She's a Grand Slam champion, and I have to be there from the first second on," said Goerges, who has reached the fourth round of a Grand Slam just once before, at the 2012 Australian Open.
The German will be hoping to notch the tenth Top 10 win of her career, having recorded wins over Caroline Wozniacki, Samantha Stosur, Victoria Azarenka, Marion Bartoli and Agnieszka Radwanska.

Back to Lattimore, what's the difference in his injury to Willis McGahee? McGahee was drafted in the first, so why is Lattimore projected by many to fall to the 4th? Is it because he's had two knee injuries? Just curious.
I would have to think Colbert's mindset going into this draft, more than other drafts, would be to avoid any risks in the first four rounds. If Lattimore fell to the fifth, yea why not. I really think Bradshaw is the hinge point on whether they pull the trigger on Lattimore in the fourth round. If Bradshaw is signed, I think KC feels a lot safer knowing he can gamble on this guy. Personally, I would not draft him. Why take the risk when you a lot more holes in a competitive division.

on & body type.
McGahee looked to be a better NFL prospect. He didn't put up several years of stats like Lattimore but his '02 year was monsterous over 1,7oo yards & 28 TDS on an undefeated team until the bowl game. He was arguably a Top 5 pick. Still the first RB taken even over Larry Johnson @ #27. McGahee was an Adrian Peterson type... Speed, Power, & wiggle. The question is did the injury really set him back? He has had a productive NFL career but he wasn'tthe impact player he was projected to be. IMO the injury really impacted his NFL production.

Magahees's '02 tape ranks up there with some of the best. The comparison to AP's impact on the game is pretty accurate before his injury. He was a game changer in college and IMO was never the same player after his injury.

Lattimore seems more Marcus Dupree than Willis McGahee/Frank Gore. He seems like a charity case to a certain extent.

"As soon as CN told us they wanted to unload this line, we saw that as good news," AMT CEO Nicolas Girard said in an interview with the Montreal Gazette. "If we can own railway lines and be masters in our own house, it gives us more flexibility and allows us to improve service for customers." AMT hopes to secure an agreement by year's end.
The 18.6-mile, 12-station Deux-Montagnes route is AMT's busiest, carrying 45% of the agency's annual ridership.
AMT traffic currently dominates the line's use, though CN operations take precedent at present between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. and between 8:30 p.m. and 5:30 a.m., essentially limiting AMT to traditional "commuter" rail service. AMT ownership could allow service expansion.
The price of such an exchange has yet to be set. "CN wants to sell and we want to buy, now we have to agree on a price," Girard said.
More immediately, AMT is struggling to meet increased ridership demand by adding Bombardier BiLevel equipment (pictured above) to the line, initially slated to begin this fall but now postponed until early 2014.

DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings have adjusted well to life as an Eastern Conference team - and it only gets better Wednesday as they entertain the Ottawa Senators.
Detroit has beaten the Senators four straight times, outscoring them 19-11 along the way. The Red Wings are coming off back-to-back losses to the Phoenix Coyotes and San Jose Sharks, while the Senators also are looking to turn things around after falling 3-1 to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday.
Wednesday marks Red Wings forward Daniel Alfredsson's first game against his former team. The veteran Swedish star logged 1,178 games with the Senators, establishing franchise records with 426 goals and 682 assists before departing for Detroit as a free agent this past offseason. The Senators are off to a sluggish start without their former captain but have fared well against the East so far this season, earning five of a possible six points.
TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, TSN, TVA (Ottawa), FSN (Detroit)
ABOUT THE SENATORS (3-3-2): Ottawa players know that facing Alfredsson for the first time as an adversary gives Wednesday's tilt more significance than a normal regular-season game.
"You're used to seeing one guy move on and play a different team and play against teammates he played with," captain Jason Spezza told the Ottawa Sun. "It will be different because it's Alfie, but I think it will be harder for him because he's playing against Ottawa and because it's the only place he ever played."
ABOUT THE RED WINGS (6-3-1): There may not be a goaltending controversy brewing in the Motor City yet, but the backup has outperformed the starter through the opening 10 games of the season. Jonas Gustavsson earned three victories in a four-day span last week but has ceded the job back to Jimmy Howard, who responded by allowing six goals in two games. Howard is 3-0-0 with a 3.00 goals-against average in his career against the Senators, while Gustavsson - formerly of Toronto - is just 2-3-0 but has a 1.98 GAA.
1. Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg has two goals, 10 assists and a plus-7 rating in nine career games against the Senators.
2. The Senators' last win in the head-to-head series came on Jan. 12, 2008, when Alfredsson scored two goals - including the game-winner with 2:56 remaining - in a 3-2 triumph in Ottawa.
3. Senators coach Paul MacLean formerly served as an assistant under Detroit's Mike Babcock.

The saving of our world from pending doom will come, not through the complacent adjustment of the conforming majority, but through the creative maladjustment of a nonconforming minority. - Martin Luther King
I think it's important to think about your expectations of the team or what management's expectation of the team is... making the finals vs. making the playoffs takes a different level of talent and usually a different level of salary payroll.
I don't have a source but i seem to recall reading that the gay acquisition may have been the result of ownership wanting to increase talent. At the very least you expect that ownership was aware of our current salary and the Gay's salary. I think it safe to assume at the very least they are not horribly afraid to spend some money.
I have been on the trade bargnani band wagon for three years. However, my problem with Barg's was primarily due to expectations. He was never a franchise player. I did an in-depth analysis of his contract and performance vs. nba a couple of years ago (tried to find it but couldn't... maybe it was eaten by the everything bargs thread?) My conclusion then is still applicable today, bargnani gets paid like a 3rd or 4th option on a championship calibre team
For example Eastern Conference playoff teams (as of now)
Miami 17 mil, 17mil, 17mil, 6mil
Indy 14 13 10 8
Chicago 16 15 13 11
Western Conference playoff teams (as of now)
SA 14 12 10 10(duncan only makes 10mil?!?!)
LAC 17 10 8 8 (does not include griffen who is at 7 mil)
Toronto 16 10 6 6
By looking at these rosters it's clear that bargs ranges from tied for 2nd to 5th in terms of salary and is anywhere for 3rd to 5th in terms of a teams depth chart.
I still think he is over paid. However, if you want to make it past the first round it is not ridiculous to pay 10 mill as the back up power forward. Amir is also playing at a very high level right now so is still capable to start. I don't see it being a problem to let bargs play out the rest of the season coming off the bench. If he raises his value then you can get more back for him OR stay with him coming off the bench. Then the only hole is a back up pg which I'm confident we can find in FA or by trading filler.
Lowry/2nd PG/JLIII
As long as Derozan and Gay look like they are coexisting and bargs is coming off the bench you don't need to ship our derozan in order make a bargs trade happen, UNLESS you are really concerned about salary, something I've not heard the ownership be vocal about.
Ross isn't ready to take the leap as a starter, and neither is JV, so there's nothing wrong with making a deal like this in the off season or even waiting as long as the off season of 2014. Considering that we aren't going to be making the playoffs this year anyway, and that Ross & JV probably won't provide meaningful impact until the 2015-2016 season there's really no need to rush.
However, if you have a chance to trade derozan and bargs for Kevin Love you do it. I'd be happy to trade bargs + filler for Millsap but bargs + Derozan is giving up to much. If bargs + filler isn't enough to get millsap, then you take a pass and try to get someone else via trade in the off season or next year. I can't see bargs value getting any lower, but if it does just amnesty him in the off season. Yes that leaves us with the kleiza contract, but it'll be an expiring and we can just sit him on the bench, so it's not like i'll be much of a change from the rest of the 3 years he's been here.
Both Bargs and Derozan are expendable, but I don't think were under any pressure to make a bargs trade before the deadline just to get rid of him.
As much as I still want bargs off the team, I wanted him off the team for 3 years, so I don't see why 6-18 more months makes a big difference, if it means we get better talent back than if we traded tomorrow.

"We only have one rule on this team. What is that rule? E.L.E. That's right's, E.L.E, and what does E.L.E. stand for? EVERYBODY LOVE EVERYBODY. Right there up on the wall, because this isn't just a basketball team, this is a lifestyle. ~ Jackie Moon
Well expressed and thought out.
My conclusion then is still applicable today, bargnani gets paid like a 3rd or 4th option on a championship calibre teamA simple comparison of salary doesn't mean players are fairly comparable. Using this logic if Solomon Alabi or Kenyon Martin was getting paid 10 mil a year he'd therefore "good enough" to be the 3rd or 4th option on a championship team.if you want to make it past the first round it is not ridiculous to pay 10 mill as the back up power forward
That being said, if there was a magical way in which we can trade a $10m contract with 2 more years for a $1.5m contract, I'm up for it

Only in your mind do you think you get smarter by the post...lol WOW

How the Raiders graded out in a 26-13 loss to the San Diego Chargers on Sunday at Qualcomm Stadium:
Passing offense: Matt McGloin completed 20 of 36 passes for 206 yards with no touchdowns and an extremely costly interception — a ball he couldn't get over safety Eric Weddle that came after the Raiders had secured an interception of their own. It led to a Chargers field goal. San Diego bottled up Rod Streater (1 catch, 2 yards) and McGloin had his most success going to Andre Holmes (five receptions, 71 yards). McGloin did not get downfield to the extent he has in past games. Grade: C-minus
Rushing offense: Rashad Jennings had 45 yards in 10 carries with a long gain of nine yards. Darren McFadden had four carries, eight yards and did a nice job on a 5-yard touchdown run. In the end, the Raiders were a subpar 3.5 yards per carry and weren't nearly the operators on the ground as they have been in many games this season. The Raiders had only three rushing first downs, their lowest total since getting three on Sept. 29 against Washington. Grade: D
Pass defense: Mike Jenkins had an interception off Philip Rivers, who mostly played it safe with 19 completions in 29 attempts for 201 yards and a 4-yard touchdown pass to Keenan Allen. There were defensive holding penalties on Jenkins, Chimdi Chekwa and Tracy Porter. The Raiders were vulnerable on third-down throws, as has been the case the last five games. The pass rush was non-existent, with Jason Hunter getting the lone sack on Rivers. The Raiders at least forced Nick Novak to kick four field goals. Grade: C-minus
Rush defense: San Diego stayed stubborn with the run even when the passing game looked open and although the Raiders were able to make some stops for losses, San Diego ended with 37 rushes for 148 yards. Ryan Mathews had 99 yards in 25 carries with a long gain of 34 and a 7-yard touchdown run. Danny Woodhead got more consistent yardage in terms of yards per carry with eight carries for 52 yards. San Diego had seven rushing first downs. Grade: C-minus
Special teams: Greg Jenkins, who replaced Taiwan Jones (who replaced Jacoby Ford as kickoff returner), lost a kickoff that led to a San Diego field goal. Marquette King hammered the ball high and deep all day long, with a spectacular 54.7 gross and a 47.2 net, although Allen did get loose for a 28-yard punt return. Sebastian Janikowski converted both field-goal attempts from 20 and 42 yards and the Chargers did no damage on kickoff returns. Grade: C-plus
Coaching: The Raiders can't be faulted for their effort, but whether it's because of the uncertainty surrounding what happens in the offseason, players who are trying too hard or too much youth, they're simply not capable of doing what it takes to win a game. A third-and-1 deep pass attempt to fullback Jamize Olawale resulted in an incomplete pass and a punt. The Raiders struggled to run but there were no plays for Terrelle Pryor, who has jump-started the running game as a reserve. Too many penalties — a season-high 12 for 64 yards. Grade: D-plus

OCEAN CITY – It officially took 126 seconds to freeze the salaries of an entire city's workforce.
At the end of Monday night's meeting at City Hall, City Manager Dennis Dare announced that the town would freeze the salaries of all general employees for at least the next year.
"My recommendation as we continue this budget process is to basically freeze the salaries of the employees where they are at this time for this fiscal year," said Dare.
For an issue that will impact hundreds of people, the matter took a total of 2 minutes and 6 seconds from Dare's presentation, to the unanimous vote by council, who agreed that all general employee salaries for the town of Ocean City should be locked in place. The freeze does not include union employees, although it could surface during negotiations between the city and representatives.
"This sounds fiscally responsible and I motion that we do the budget in this way," said Councilman Lloyd Martin.
Martin's motion received a quick second by Councilwoman Margaret Pillas and a unanimous vote took place just seconds later.
Pillas, who was adamant in her quest for the release of a list of the top 100 salaries of town employees thought that the decision to freeze salaries might have been directly connected to the release of the salary list.
"I expressed that I wanted to move forward with the release of the salaries and the freezing of the salaries, and I think that this is the city manager's way of showing the citizens that government is in the same boat as them, and we want to reflect the hardship that our citizens are feeling," she said.
The town has already instilled a hiring freeze and temporarily revoked the 3-percent Cost of Living Adjustment that employees enjoy each year and now with the addition of a salary freeze, the message being sent from City Hall appears to be that the town is trying its best to be fiscally responsible and perhaps even conservative.
In the past weeks, closed session meetings have lagged on longer than usual, and one council member, who asked to remain nameless in this case, hinted that the issue may have only taken mere minutes in the public eye, but it was heavily debated behind closed doors for some time.
The council decided to freeze Dare's salary in recent months, and Pillas said that it was only a natural progression to extend the freeze to the working pool of city employees.
"We want the citizens to know that we understand the hardships that they are going through. Property taxes are down, as well as income, and other things, and their government should reflect that," Pillas said.
Council President Joe Mitrecic dispelled notions that the decision or the process to freeze salaries was in any way hasty by saying, "this type of thing is happening all around the area, and we wanted to let our employees know as soon as possible and make that decision today, rather than at the 11th hour of the budget process."
Dare is currently the highest paid city employee, earning $170,814 in gross earngings, with Public Works Director Hal Adkins ($150,025 gross) and Police Chief Bernadette DiPino ($141,742 gross) rounding out the top three, according to the salary list released last week. City Engineer Terry McGean's $141,129 and Finance Director Martha Lucey's $141,127 round out the top five.
What could alarm some people is the fact that the top 50 on the list all make over $100,000 per year, and number 100 on the list, a firefighter/EMT, made over $85,000 in gross earnings in 2008.
Mitrecic said the list of salaries should only be judged if one sees the longevity of each worker.
"Anytime you see a salary of $100,000, you are going to think that people might be overpaid. Some department heads might have started working for the town when they were 18 and only made $4,000 a year without pension, make much more than that after 30 years of service. In today's market, those numbers are not outlandish, but to some people, especially retirees, those numbers could seem unheard of," he said.
Notable numbers from the top 100 included a firefighter/EMT officer, who earned over $36,000 in overtime pay alone, and the city's golf professional, who makes well over $80,000.
Pillas said that if she is successful in gaining access to the benefits package and city "perks" that employees receive as part of the Ocean City workforce, the numbers could be even more startling.
"I just want to see what everything costs. From cell phones to take-home cars to the benefit packages that could be worth about 20-25 percent of a worker's salary, I want to know what the expense is for each item," said Pillas.
There are currently 26 positions that sit vacant due to the hiring freeze, according to Dare, and he said that if some of those positions are not filled eventually, some of the services provided by the town might be adversely affected, namely, the Winterfest of Lights.
"We may have to scale back the Winterfest of Lights, because we might not have the manpower to keep it going at the current level," he said.
Mitrecic also said the council dropped the ball on savings for the town when denying the proposed changes to the city's bus service.
"Our town employees work on their own personal budgets and when we make decisions like this, it affects them directly. I don't think that it's fair to them to cut COLA's and freeze salaries if we don't cut everything that we possibly can," said Mitrecic.

I love this scent. It's a strong, exotic smell but so warm. I love patchouli but some types are either too rough or have dank overtones. This one is rounded and spicy and will get lots of comments. It's sold as a man's perfume, but I have worn it for years and feel it suits both genders.

The display of the Apple iPad mini is tested against its main two 7 inch Android competitors
0. phoneArena posted on 05 Nov 2012, 23:40
DisplayMate did a rather explicit analysis of the display on the Apple iPad mini and found that Apple made some poor decisions which led to a "less than perfect" product; one of the major problems with the iPad mini is the low pixel count of the tablet...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

I don't get it. The writer made Nexus 7's screen look better in the article but it came last. Either this is another pathetic attempt to promote the Mini's obsolete screen or the article's summary is wrong and more details needed to be specified.
3. Lift_Off (Posts: 152; Member since: 04 Apr 2012)
Maybe because of the "washed out color and contrast" or the "dithered coloring and false contouring". Thats really all I see up there that the nexus 7 got marked down for. Sometimes the display will look nicer with true colors even though the pixels per inch might be lower. Just my guess as to why it got a "B-"
4. Savage (unregistered)
Nexus 7's screen took a major beating in areas where it mattered most although iPad Mini often came last in most comparisons. They should have declared it a tie and named Kindle Fire a winner.
19. Nadr1212 (Posts: 741; Member since: 22 Sep 2012)
Amazon Should have put a bigger battery on the Amazon Kindle fire HD, and better specs
5. Dr.Phil (Posts: 1771; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
It also looks to be a possible software issue according to DisplayMate.
"The Factory Display Calibration problem mentioned above for the Nexus 7 display qualifies as a bug because it is a software or firmware problem rather than an inherent hardware display issue. Depending on the display firmware this may or may not be correctable with a software update."
It was also running Android 4.1.1 when they were doing there tests, so it may or may not have been fixed with Android 4.2. Who knows?
10. Savage (unregistered)
Sure, now we need to compare them again when 4.2 is installed in N7.
13. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
The author of the report used a color-coded scheme: Green shaded cells means the best while yellow-shaded cells means less than the best. However, the author did not provide the grading scheme meaning you can't replicate the score.
It is an objective analysis given the author's technical background. You have to keep in mind the iPad Mini's display is about 35% larger than either the Kindle or Nexus 7 and that does play a HUGE role in web surfing, etc.
Apple has a policy of not bring out the best features until it is commercially feasible. It took three tries for Apple to bring retina display to the iPad something that is lost to many people. Google, Amazon, et al are practically sh*tting in their pants because Apple products get better over time meaning the next generation Mini is just going to that much harder to compete. Right now Amazon and Google is playing the pricing game, and that can't last. People who are educated know the real cost of a product is it's depreciation cost. Since Apple products have high resale value, that more than offset the high initial price.
15. Savage (unregistered)
Why would Google and Amazon be afraid of a device that will come out next? The next year's Mini will compete with next year's Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire. You are making it sound as if only Apple updates their tablets.
20. bensch (Posts: 7; Member since: 06 Nov 2012)
ardent1, I do not agree with your depreciation cost argument. Tablets are not houses, or cars for that matter. Their depreciation costs are completely irrelevant as they are not designed to be sold as second hand products. Instead, their initial cost-quality ratio is what is important when purchasing a tablet. The cost-quality ratio of the iPad mini is completely ridiculous. Its design is not innovative, its screen is not special at all, its features are limited and quite universally found in hundreds of devices today, its OS is expensive to update and very basic, bluetooth is virtually useless unless you are going to use an earpiece to skype or face time. So what does that leave us with? A very high price . A price which is not explainable considering the iPad mini's features. Gizmodo had an interesting article on the iPad mini's price, go read it:http://gizmodo.com/5956252/the-ipad-mini-costs-141-more-than-its-components-add-up-to
Finally, the iPad's 35% screen size "advantage" over the competition would certainly help if the resolution was appropriate. Unfortunately it is not even HD, while lacking a decent ppi densitiy... Which means your browsing experience on the mini will be average if not worse because a high res display paired with a high ppi makes reading and viewing web pages a lot better. More space without a good res and ppi will not help apple's case.
14. PhenomFaz (Posts: 1236; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
And here we were wondering why Apple's stock has been plumetting!
This is just more proof that Apple uses underrated stuff and charges through the roof for iCrap!
2. ElektronicGeek91 (Posts: 105; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
Everybody already know this is not going to stop people from buying the mini. Even though it clearly states everything it DONT have.
6. phil2n (Posts: 488; Member since: 30 Apr 2012)
kindle FTW.. Comparison between the three tablets is biased specially in iPad mini and Nexus 7. Kindle Fire HD no doubt it has the best display among the 3
7. mydi.maus (unregistered)
poor mini pull mini off the shelves apple and dig its grave..
8. Evil.Bunny (Posts: 41; Member since: 29 Feb 2012)
What about the 1440x900 screen of the nook tablet ???
9. Evil.Bunny (Posts: 41; Member since: 29 Feb 2012)
So let me get this straight
N7 has better ppi;
Best viewing angle;
almost 50% more battery than competitors at max brightness;
40% better colour reproduction than iPad mini
and better bightness and contrast than iPad mini but comparable to kinde
and yet, Kindle gets "A-", Ipad mini gets "B" and N7 gets B-"
11. pikapowerize (banned) (Posts: 1869; Member since: 03 May 2012)
and still people will buy this...
im not against apple, im actually loving iDevices..but this iPad mini makes me sick.. too pricey for its total cost! 43% profit margin is huge!
the basic iPad mini,16GB, should just cost $250 (coz its apple and i understand this) but putting a pricetag for $330 for 16GB?! that is ridiculous! even though it looks very premium and and got the huge screen, but its not HD screen or even retina! not even running a6 chips..running the old iPad 2's specs... but if you ask me, maybe the reason why apple didnt make siri available to iPad 2 because of iPad mini! same specs (but smaller) and iPad 2 can be update to iOS 6 but no siri! and its current price is $399 which is only $60 higher than iPad min! apple really makes everything with margins...
but still people will buy this! the sad truth!
12. bloodline (Posts: 706; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
also a key fact to remember is that the N7 was first, other products are newer.
IMO the nexus 7 is the best device out of these
16. Aeires (unregistered)
I'm just surprised they are claiming a retina display would have been too costly when they are estimated to be making 43% profit on the Mini. We all know the retina display will come later, just to get people to upgrade.
17. downphoenix (Posts: 3165; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
amazing how the Ipad 2 was praised a year and a half ago for its screen, the ipad mini not so much now despite being pretty much the size but smaller and with a higher PPI. Things sure do change fast.
21. TritonForceX (Posts: 60; Member since: 27 Sep 2012)
Here's an obvious example of a "Tim Cook" decision. Apple has made several comments about not wanting to make a compact version of a tablet. But with an area of competition coming about that didn't include Apple, oh sh*t, we've gotta put something there.
So rather than take a more "Steve Jobs" approach and not let it out until it was at least equal, it looks even more like a "slap something together, put an exorbitant price on it, and claim it's the best thing since humans learned to wipe their ass, it'll sell."
I'm no Steve Jobs fan by any means, but this argument of only putting an Apple product out till it's perfect, even if it uses older technology, is wearing thin more and more. Steve did that for one or two generations, enough to give Apple its name, but it is becoming more apparent with each product iteration that Apple literally is scrambling to keep up because competition is moving faster than they want to, and they're seeing their empire slip more and more.
Hmm, what would be the best way to slow technology progression down among competitors? How about suing the crap out of them with a flawed patent system! Only that's not working too well for them now, either.
22. TritonForceX (Posts: 60; Member since: 27 Sep 2012)
Oh, and it is nice to see an article that doesn't kiss Apple's ass throughout!


text: Just watched House of Wax, it's a kick to see Charles Bronson looking so creepy... he'd have made a good Frankenstein's monster back then. Some great Price lines in his tour of the new museum, too. I actually first saw it in 3D -- there was a 70s revival release of it in theaters with the cardboard glasses and everything.


text: Hi all, Yesterday I played a great match against a pusher, but one of the best I have ever played against. I lost the match with 6-3, 6-3, but I did not have the feeling playing bad. This guy was very consistent and a former atlete (used to run 100m in 10.5s :shock, so about everything I have tried during the match turned out not to be working that good. A list of things that I did in my plan: Play consistently deep => long rallies of +20 balls, but in the end I lost. He moved perfectly fast from left to right and forth and back. Played with higher pace => he was returning my balls back to neutral so I had to start over and I made more errors. Mixed up with more slices and dropshots => dropshots seem to work a bit, he handled the slices well. Attack his backhand => extremely consistent backhand, no way to go there Moved to the net => got lobbed a few times, but also got opportunities to score but I failed the last point. Only could make 1/15 net points. Some improvement to make here. Tried to hit angles, but he managed to handle those pretty well as he was very fast. He made a couple errors how ever. Since I had to play close to the lines, I made as many errors as well. Many things I have tried, but not very successfull. However, if I had scored the points at the net, it would be a different match. I missed agression and placement at the net, maybe I needed to try some drive volleys. Don't know. I would like to play again with him, so I can learn to deal with it . Do you have other ideas to play against a superman like this?

Pottsville ended its regular season with a 48-6 win over Waldron to finish the year with a 9-1 record (6-1 in the 4A-4 Conference) on Senior Night at John Needham Stadium.
"I was really proud of the way our kids rebounded after the tough loss from last week. We had a good week of practice and were really focused, and it showed," Apaches coach Brian Rust said after the game.
The scoring for Pottsville started with 7:05 left in the first quarter when Tyler Weaver went in from 7 yards out. Corey Campbell added the conversion, and the Apaches led early 8-0.
After forcing a Bulldogs (0-10, 0-7) punt, Pottsville took over at their 49. It took the Apaches just six plays to capitalize as Michael Perry ran the option off the left side for the 8-yard score. Campbell added the conversion and increased the lead to 16-0 with 2:54 left in the opening quarter.
Waldron's next possession ended when Perry scooped up a Bulldog fumble and scooted in 18 yards for the score. The conversion attempt failed, but the lead extended to 22-0 with 2:09 remaining in the first period.
After forcing another Waldron punt, the Apaches took over on the Bulldogs 34. Four plays later, Perry found Luke McAnulty in the end zone for the touchdown.
Perry then connected with Blaze Schrepfer for the 2-point conversion. With 10:54 left in the second quarter, Pottsville's lead was 30-0.
Perry then set up the Apaches with good field position after a 34-yard punt return to the Pottsville 32. Ten plays later, Campbell went in from a yard out and added the conversion to give the Apaches a 38-0 margin at the 4:36 mark of the first half. Tyler Weaver intercepted a Waldron pass and stopped its only deep drive of the first half at the Pottsville 38.
With 7:55 left in the third quarter, Senior Hunter Daniel scored on a 14-yard blast up the middle. Alonzo Torres added the PAT, and the Apaches led 45-0. Two minutes into the fourth quarter, Torres connected on a 19-yard field goal to make it 48-0. The Bulldogs added a late touchdown to set the final score.
"This has been a great group of seniors, and I am glad they ended the regular season with a win. Now, we start our second season. We have to focus and prepare for next week." Rust added.


text: . . . which he will. A strange thing has happened to me during this absence of Nadal's as opposed to the one in 2009, when I was cursing the tennis gods that Federer got to back into that 15th slam. I'm actually enjoying watching Federer win, or try to win, as it were at the US Open. I like the way Federer plays. As I improve my own tennis game, I realize that although Nadal is my favorite player, I play much more like Federer in my own 4.0 way, of course. Federer is the most aggressive player on tour. When he sees an opening, he tries to end the point, usually on with one-two forehand punch. If I'm honest with myself, it really hasn't been that fun to watch Nadal in a couple of years. He seems to have lost his killer instinct. I also find, as I get better at tennis, and play more and more with friends (still fiercely competitive matches), and USTA matches, that I rarely say "come on" or make any noise at all. I hit my forehand quite hard for a 4.0-4.5 but I don't grunt at all. And when I face some d-bag who is yelling "Vamos" at 30-15 in the second game of the match, it takes all the self-control I have to not scream "Vamos" mockingly back at him the next time he nets a ball. Anyway, as Kilgore's adjutant said in Apocolypse Now, "this is Federer's beach", or maybe it was "this is Federer's court." The point is, the pros are inside now. Now wild and wooly weather, no wind, no sun, nothing but fast, low-bouncing Federer conditions. He will take Shanghai, Basel, Bercy and go undefeated in London. According to my calculations, that should do it. Make no mistake, Fed wants that YE #1 A LOT. When was the last time a year end #1 was up for grabs this late in the year? 2003?

My wife is 76 years old and suffers from both rheumatoid and osteo arthritis. Her hands are the most painful – swollen joints, burning sensation and crooked fingers. The mornings were particularly difficult as her fingers were quite swollen thereby severely restricting the use of her hands. Since using Quiken three times daily, she now awakens with little or no swelling, no burning thus enabling her to function with far less discomfort and greater ease.

If you are wondering why i am so excited about your product its just that you must understand fixing my little pains is fine and dandy, but seeing my mom and misses Davignon from Ottawa being able to hold their reading materials with their hands ( they where not capable of this for the last 5 years) is just great. And to top it all off their fingers for some reason are getting straighter. Why we really dont care it's just working!

This product does all it says it will. Creates a gorgeous heat deep into the ache & soothes the pain away. Will definitely have a stock of this in my med drawer. Product arrived immediately too, this trader is great to deal with. thanks I can reccommend highly.
"I live in Christchurch and the cooler temperature has a real impact on my arthritic condition. I've had rheumatoid arthritis in my right elbow for the past 15 years and the cold climate means I'm in pain a lot of the time. Quiken pain gel has really worked for me and I've got my bridge club onto it now. Thank you so much.

"I was visiting Auckland a few weeks ago and saw your sign for pain relieving Quiken gel. My sister–in-law has bad arthritic pain in her hands so I ordered some for her. She has been thrilled with the results.

"I bought some organic Quiken for my dad who had both hips replaced. Getting him to use it was a mission, but I succeeded in the end and in spite of himself, he has agreed it has given him way more relief than the anything else he has tried.
