hi I have been locked out of my xperia X10 for enterin the unlock pattern incorrectly too many times. Although I have been given the oppurtunity to put my google account email and address in. It still won't work. My google account still works on my PC. I'm truly at my wits end and need help please... anyone? plzzz plzz plzz
When you try to unlock the phone more than 5 times it locks the phone but only for 30 seconds and you can try again, this is right from Sony's site, you will have to call them for the only way I know is to either try to remove everything from the phone, Sim, Battery and leave it for 10 minutes and try it, if not then you can try Sony's default unlock code 0000 . other than that see if you can get into the phone menu somehow to turn it off or do a Factory Reset. Sony Ericsson - Support - Phones - Detailed - Screenunlockpattern - Xperia? X10
I had this problem. i shut the phone off for about 10 minutes. then tried my google account again. I had to enter it about 3 times then i finally got in.
I had the same problem with my x10, i tryed everything even turning it off for a while then back on. I entered in my google account info over twenty times and it still never let me in. I have managed to now unlock my phone without having to send it away, i went on to sonny ericsons website and upgraded the software on my phone. The only thing about doing this is that it wipes off anything saved to it. Just remeber to take out sim card and memory cards.
could you please provide me the link from which you downloaded the software? I downloaded the PC Companion from Sony's site but that didn't work for me. I inserted the USB cable while holding the Back key, nothing happened and the phone just booted into its previous 'enter google acct' info again. i dont understand why they have that screen if the phone refuses to take the google acct info
Its the update service you need Sony Ericsson - Support - Phones And proberly wont let you login due to your details being wrong. Had this happen to me. Sony ericson wanted to charge 20 GBP just to do somthing I did at home.
I just did the update service, and i have my phone back!!! i may have lost everything, including internet.. but that can all be replaced hopefully! thankyou.
this phone is a joke! this is the second time that it's locked and wont accept my google account. i'm getting tired of resetting everything! there must be an easier way?
There was a suggested cheat... try typing 'null' into the password box. It worked for some people so might be just the thing for you! Let us know if it does.
Thanks for the feedback. I think you were lucky cos it hasn't worked for a lot of people and they have had to do the whole reset/repair thing. Its worth advising people to give it a try first tho just in case.
I have been locked out of my xperia X10 for enterin the unlock pattern incorrectly too many times. Although I have been given the oppurtunity to put my google account email and address in. It still won't work. My google account still works on my PC. I'm truly at my wits end and need help please... anyone? plzzz plzz plzz
If you have tried the suggested cheat of typing in 'null' and that hasn't helped then the only thing you can do is a repair using Sony Ericsson Update Service, link given above. It will wipe your phone tho but its the only thing that will sort it out.
I am having difficulties with my x10. I have read all of the other forums on how to bypass the gmail account and I have tried to do that with mine. I have tried updating my phone numerous times and I have the newest firmware on the phone. I have also put "null" as my password to see if that would help and I still have the same result. If there is another way I can unlock it without having to send it in, may you please help me out. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
You need to do a repair not an update on the Sony Ericsson Update Service programme downloadable from their website. It is the only thing that works but will wipe your phone. If this does not work then I guess your only alternative is to have it seen by SE service centre.
I have tried to repair it several times and each time I have no luck. Do you think when they release the upgrade to the Android 2.1 it will take care of it? I went and found out that that might occur here in the next week to three weeks depending on how long SE takes to add the new HD feature to the phone
No if the normal repair doesn't fix your problem then I can see that the update will. I suggest it needs looking at by SE or your telco/retailer.
my god help meto unlock my pattern .. i have a google account but it still not workin !!! help pls ..
The information that you need is all contained in the thread. Have a read through, basically you will have to do a reset/repair via Sony Ericsson Update Service.
no offence meant here but I HATE LAZY PEOPLE posting the same problem in the thread that the solution is in and its only 24 posts long takes 5-10 minutes to read it yet your posts are 40 minutes apart - what did you do ???

Our WILDTYPE GIST listserv is for patients of any age with wildtype GIST (no mutations in KIT or PDGFRA or BRAF), including SDH-deficient GIST, pediatric GIST, Carney Triad, and Carney-Stratakis GIST-paraganglioma dyad.
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in children and adolescents is extremely rare. In contrast to adult GIST, which is usually caused by mutations in the genes for KIT or PDGFRA, most cases of GIST in children and adolescents show no mutations in these genes. GIST without mutations in KIT or PDGFRA is referred to as wildtype GIST. About 10-12% of adult GIST patients have wildtype GIST. Young people between ages 18 and 30 years old may develop either adult-type mutant GIST or the pediatric-type wildtype GIST. Many wildtype GIST patients have defects in succinate dehydrogenase function, as described further in following sections. Defects in succinate dehydrogenase genes are associated with Carney-Stratakis Dyad of GIST plus paraganglioma. Research to identify genetic abnormalities that may be responsible for wildtype GIST, pediatric GIST, Carney-Stratakis Dyad, and Carney Triad is a very active pursuit.

text: HP's Leaked 13" Folio Ultrabook Looks Pretty ToughKyle Wagner11/15/11 4:14pmFiled to: UltrabooksLaptopsGadgetsHpFolio29EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink HP's new 13" Folio just leaked on the blog Ritchie's Room, adding to the cacophony of Ultrabooks zooming around right now. The design isn't as much of a departure from Hp's current laptops, but it's just as slim and pretty as you'd expect an Ultrabook to be, and a little tougher, thanks to a rubberized base and sides. Advertisement The Folio will come with either a 1.4GHz Core i3 Sandy Bridge process or or a 1.6 Core i5 that can max out at 2.3GHz with Turbo Boost. It's also got a 128GB SSD and 4GB that is apparently expandable to 8GB. That would make the Folio the first expandable Ultrabook if it's true and not just a spec sheet flub. Overall, it looks like a solid little machine that should be out by late December. [Ritchie's Room via Verge]Reply29 repliesLeave a reply

A couple months back, I made a post on a mixtape that I had stumbled upon by a Dutch duo named Homework. I dubbed it one of the best mixtapes I had heard in a long time, and that statement still holds true today. I back these guys 100%, and I am extremely excited to see what else they have in store in the future. Jesse Rose feels the same way, as he has given the go ahead for Homework's newest EP, Rally Racquet Club, to be released on the lauded Made To Play label on June 20th. So make sure to head on over to Beatport next Monday to pick up the whole package, including a top notch remix from current Beatport chart topper, Oliver $.

- Release Date: Nov 3, 2004
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Excellent gameplay is the order of the day here, and the classic franchises will make Dreamcast and Saturn fans teary-eyed just at the thought of them. This is the best EyeToy compilation to date.
Ultimately, this is a very solid package, with massive potential for future iterations of not only Superstars, but also for the actual franchises from where these Superstars came.
These minigames take a step beyond previous eyetoy efforts because they use many of the gaming elements that make their original incarnations such fun to play.
Game InformerWhile there's not much new, it takes something old and makes it seem fresh. And where gaming fun is concerned, that's worth a lot. [Dec 2004, p.177]
Substantially deeper than any EyeToy title I've seen so far. Granted, that's not hard to do, but it's still a nice surprise.
Easily our favourite EyeToy game to date.
There are tons of classics in here, from Super Monkey Ball to Nights. All have been converted as well as you could expect. [GamesMaster]
Unfortunately, Sega SuperStars is missing one crucial thing - a multiplayer mode. You can enter your name at the end of each game if you've scored well enough, and the ability to take a photo of the winner and save it along with the score is nice, but there's no structured multiplayer mode such as the one found in EyeToy: Play.
Sega Superstars' many minigames may be of a decidedly variable quality, but those that are decent easily make up for the duds. All the Sega hallmarks are there, from the robust and colourful graphics to the faithful and sometimes nostalgia-inducing soundtrack.
The inclusion of familiar characters is no doubt a bonus to the game and the way the developers have tried to move the gameplay from those games to a new medium was very ambitious and in some cases did not come off, but others like Samba De Amigo and Space Channel 5 can very easily be ported to a new control system.
Play MagazineNot a title that you'd likely want to spend much time with alone, but can be a good deal of fun in a party environment or for younger players. [Jan 2004, p.67]
PSM MagazineThe most polished, varied, creative mix of EyeToy games yet. [Jan 2005, p.76]
Lacks the lastability of "Eyetoy: Play 2" as once the twelve games are over and the Chao garden has been exploited that is the end. There is no playroom and there are only small novel unlockables.
Pretty good for what it is trying to be. There are a select few who like the Eye Toy, and this game is just as good as the rest of them.
Whatever the case, it's absolutely perfect for parties.
It doesn't reinvent the EyeToy genre, and some of the games lose their appeal quickly or feel a bit too familiar, but the healthy number of minigames included in the package makes it one of best values out there for EyeToy owners.
Cheat Code CentralAll of the games are arcade simple and relatively easy to play and master. Not all of them are a hoot however. "Crazy Taxi," which is a classic Dreamcast game is nothing but filler in this collection.
The quality is uneven and there are no multiplayer tournament modes, but youngsters and Sega devotees will have great fun, particularly with the music games.
AceGamezSega Superstars will bring a tear to the eye of many gamers, especially the poor old Dreamcasters. Okay, so there's no great substance here and no multiplayer modes, but all those little extra bits add up to something of a surprise.
Edge MagazineThe complaints that can be levelled at Superstars are real, but so is the magic it contains. When it works, Monkey Ball truly feels like you're tilting the land, not moving the ball. When it works, Nights makes you think you can fly. [Dec 2005, p.112]
It's just too bad that by putting in just a little effort pretty much everyone should be able to get through the game without much difficulty at all.
The camera simply cannot detect movements accurately enough to make replaying games for a high score a viable option, since you'll often not get credit for things you did correctly.
It's all a bit like typing while wearing oven mitts.
An interesting experiment that works well in some situations and grinds to a halt in others. While this would be a disaster for a full-priced game, the $30 tag softens the impact somewhat.
It's a great way to work out, and it'll definitely be a hit at parties, but it's also a short-lived experience that doesn't feel like a full-fledged game.
The overwhelming majority of the games are over too quickly, making it a great party game but not something solo players will necessarily be returning to early and often. That said, it's easily the best EyeToy disc released to date.
Electronic Gaming MonthlyIt's the kind of game you'd make your mom play to show her that not all videogames involve stabbing hookers. [Jan 2005, p.135]
GMR MagazineWhy waste money on Superstars when you can buy any number of hallucination-inducing substances to get your friends swatting at the air for a fraction of the price? [Feb 2005, p.94]

Garrett Raboin Returns As Assistant Coach At SCSU
SCSU has announced the hiring of Garrett Raboin as an assistant men's hockey coach effective immediately.
Raboin was a standout on the Huskies blueline from 2006 to 2010. He most recently played professional hockey in Europe from 2010 to 2012. In the 2010-2011 season and the beginning of the 2011-2012 season Raboin played in Finland for Turku. He completed the 2011-2012 season in Norway with the Lorenskag club.
SCSU head coach Bob Motzko said that Raboin is a natural fit for this position and the team. Motzko also said that as a player, Raboin was one of the all-time great team leaders in the program's history and he has all the makings of an outstanding coach.
Raboin says he had a great four years at SCSU as a player and as an alumnus to return here as a coach is a dream come true. The Huskies will kick off the 2012-2013 season on October 12th and 13th on the road at the University of New Hampshire.
SCSU will open its home season on October 19th and 20th.

4 Comments on "National Writing Contests"
First, I really did like the story about the mental patient you posted, though I thought a few of "ly" adverbs made from adjectives should have been changed. Second, do you usually charge $18 for what will most likely be a rejected submission, or do you ever have a cheaper, reading period?
Is your National Writing Contest only national, or is it also open to international entries?

A patcher I created in Max 6.0.8 (Mac) that contains Message objects when opened in Runtime 6.0.5 (also Mac) can't find the Message objects, see attached image. I tried it on three different computers and got the same result. Updating the Runtime to 6.0.8 fixes the problem, but I wouldn't think there should be a difference between the two versions in regards to the Message object. It's also really a pain for distributing people who may not have the very latest version of Max 6 Runtime.
I've had similar issues in the past with an object from a newer version of Max not working on a slightly older version of Max Runtime. In each case, the main version number was the same, only the .x number was different.

You're going to be on radio? Cool deal! :) :) :) Hey, Mike? Be careful they don't pull a fast one on you and slip in a question like: "How did Ned come from Edward?" :) Ah, you already know all about that stuff, anyway.Hey, does the radio station take questions from call-in listeners? You know, like on *Frasier*? Coz that would be so cool. I could call in with my question for you (just like they get familiar voices to do the call-in segments on *Frasier*) and you'd have to guess who I am.
Heheh, don't worry -- I'm not really gonna call. Jus' kiddin'. :)

When someone you love vanishes without a trace, how far would you go to get them back?
For ex-FBI profiler Pierce Quincy, it's the beginning of his worst nightmare: a car abandoned on a desolate stretch of Oregon highway, engine running, purse on the driver's seat. And his estranged wife, Rainie Conner, gone, leaving no clue to her fate.
Did one of the ghosts from Rainie's troubled past finally catch up with her? Or could her disappearance be the result of one of the cases they'd been working- a particularly vicious double homicide or the possible abuse of a deeply disturbed child Rainie took too close to heart? Together with his daughter, FBI agent Kimberly Quincy, Pierce is battling the local authorities, racing against time, and frantically searching for answers to all the questions he's been afraid to ask.
One man knows what happened that night. Adopting the alias of a killer caught eighty years before, he has already contacted the press. His terms are clear: he wants money, he wants power, he wants celebrity. And if he doesn't get what he wants, Rainie will be gone for good.
Sometimes, no matter how much you love someone, it's still not enough.
As the clock winds down on a terrifying deadline, Pierce plunges headlong into the most desperate hunt of his life, into the shattering search for a killer, a lethal truth, and for the love of his life, who may forever be...gone.

January 27th: First Shipment of Aquatabs Arrives! "Our first distribution was to a school building in Leogane. Several hundred people are living there with no access to clean water. We distributed enough tabs to purify over 100,000 liters of water at the school!" John Smith, DSI Volunteer Additional distributions include: -Two field hospitals received enough Aquatabs to purify 1 million liters. Each patient receives a strip of tabs. -Mobile doctor team distributing tabs as they go into the countryside. An additional ½ million liters will be treated -A distribution was held in accord with the US Marines outside one of their camps "People are excited to get the tabs because many of them understand the dangers of their water situation. Also, they know how to use them already." A special thank you to the people of Lanxess for their donation of Aquatabs. Additional News: Water Treatment Training: 150 health agents and 36 Monitrices (community health workers) have been trained and provided with Aquatabs to distribute Buckets: Negotiations with the local bucket factory are complete.

what gives?
what gives?
Flacco is elite. Time for everyone to get over it. And Kaepernick is ascending.
Was Brady elite when he won his first SB? Was Rodgers?
Hindsight will tell.
Flacco was 21 of 36 for 240 yards with 3 TD's and 0 interceptions
not sure what the QB rating is but stats are above average in the NFL
You don't have to be elite. You just have to be able to score and not turn the ball over. Take away marks turnovers and its a different outcome.
Flaco is elite. He was a dropped pass from being in 2 consecutive Super Bowls.
Flacco and Kap are playing like elite QBs.
The bottom line is that the QB has to play well. No team is going to win a championship with awful QB play.
If anything, this just shows that you can win with a pretty good QB, who has some key pieces around him. Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, and Ray Rice are studs in key spots. I mean, Ray Rice consistently makes chicken salad out of chicken ****. That OL beats people up as well. Boldin is a tough mother ****er who will impose his will on you and Smith is a big play waiting to happen.
Joe Flacco just beat Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Of those three, who would you say is elite? As important as the QB is, it's still a team game. The point is, you don't need an "elite" QB to win it all. Eli Manning won it last year and Joe Flacco may win it this year. Eli Manning couldn't even get his team into the ****ing playoffs this year and has three one-and-dones on his record.
Above all else, the New NFL requires playmaking WR's and TE's. If you look at the Kapernick and Flacco TD's, very few were of the easy-peasy variety. More often than not you're seeing fanastic catches with very tight coverage (Boldin) gutsy balls-out physicality (Pitta) explosiveness (Crabtree, Jones in a losing effort).
The QB's are critical, obviously, but tonight's loss for the Patriots is as much on their feeble WR's as it is on their lousy D.
I agree. I actually think Boldin is a lot closer to the Hall of Fame than people realize too. Rice is a great player too, he always seems to make something big happen
As a QB, you don't have to apologize for playing well when u have a good team surrounding you. But when people go overboard about your performance, the context needs to be pointed out
OP is right, this year is a reminder that there are many ways to build a Super Bowl team. It's great to have one of the top 5 QBs, that makes it a lot easier, but it's no guarantee.
And if you don't have one of those QBs you still can build a Super Bowl team.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- Alex Abrams threw six solid innings in his first collegiate start and Jordan Simpson went 4-for-5 and drove in five runs to spark Furman to a 13-3 victory over Wofford in Southern Conference baseball action Saturday afternoon at Russell C. King Field.
The Paladins' victory evened the series at a game apiece heading into Sunday's 1:00 p.m. finale.
Given his first start to halt Furman's recent weekend struggles in league play, Abrams (3-0) delivered by allowing only a run on six hits while doubling his longest outing of the season. Prior to Saturday the junior right-hander had posted 24 career appearances — all in relief. The junior from Charleston also collected an RBI double and scored two runs serving in a designated hitter role.
Simpson, meanwhile, continued his mid-season surge with a pair of singles, a double, and a triple in his 4-for-5 performance that produced a season high five RBI. The Paladin freshman second baseman has batted .369 (17-for-46) over the last 12 games.
Furman (19-15, 7-10 SoCon) roughed up Wofford (14-23, 5-12 SoCon) for five runs in the first inning, chasing Terrier starter Luke Leftwich (2-4) before he recorded an out. Taylor Johnson's RBI double scored Will Muzika, and Paul Nitto's RBI grounder drove home Jake Jones to give Furman a 2-0 lead. Abrams followed with a double that scored Johnson, and singles by Harrison Farmer and Simpson tacked on the final two runs in the Paladin first.
Furman tallied two unearned runs in the fourth to stretch its advantage to 7-0, and then to 10-0 in the sixth on a Simpson two-run triple and RBI single by Ohmstede.
Abrams yielded his only run in the bottom of the sixth before giving way to the Paladin bullpen.
Simpson wrapped up his big day at the plate with a two-run single in the eighth off of Terrier reliever Dominick Del Monte. His four hits led the way in Furman's 13-hit attack, which also featured two-hit peformances by Ohmstede and Griffin Davis, who entered the game as a pinch hitter.
Paul Nitto scored three of the Paladins' 13 runs.
Seth Neely went 4-for-5 to lead Wofford, which finished with nine hits.

Isaac was eliminated from "The Challenge: Free Agents" after drawing the kill card and losing the elimination round to vet Johnny Bananas. But if only Isaac had kept his mouth shut, he would have been safe from drawing the kill card from the entire season.
Zap2it got Isaac on the line to discuss how he knew how to cheat the system, what happened in that elimination round, and what didn't make it to air this season. Check out the full Q&A below:
Zap2it: I'm so sorry you got eliminated, that was pretty brutal to watch. What happened?
Isaac: I f***ed up, Sydney! Let me let you in on a little secret: The kill cards are made out of wood and there's a grain on the side of the cards. During the first elimination rounds, I looked at the grain and memorized what they looked like and which ones were the kill cards. So I was straight and I wasn't even worried about it. Every elimination after that, I knew which one was the kill card because I remembered what the grain on the side of the kill card looked like.
So if you knew which one was the kill card, why did you pick it?!
Because I talked about it, which was stupid on my part. I told Cohutta which one was the kill card, and in the house we all draw straws to see the order of who picks the card, and I still didn't care because I still knew which one was the kill card, didn't matter if I picked first or last. But after they heard me talking about it on the mic, they switched up the kill card and I picked it.
Oh man. That probably made it that much worse for you, knowing that if you kept your mouth shut you'd probably still be in the game.
Yeah, plus I was not mentally or in any way prepared to go into the elimination, because I really thought I was going to go back into the house and party that night. To tell you the truth, it was really inconvenient [laughs].
But you still fought pretty valiantly in the elimination —
No. Don't lie to me, Sydney. I did horribly. We all saw it on national TV, don't bulls*** me. Johnny Bananas, he's a strong dude. You don't really expect it but when I grabbed ahold of him, it was hard. And I have a background in jiu jitsu, but I was so stupid and I listened to Cohutta. I always listen to him which is probably why I'm not a billionaire. He gives the worst advice ever. He told me to go high and try and tackle his torso, and I did that, and it was the worst f***ing strategy. I should have trusted myself but I chose to wrestle the bear and I f***ed myself.
You said something after the elimination that the sand screwed you up, too, right?
That's just an excuse I used for being terrible and losing. It's not the sand. I can't blame the sand. I just suck. [laughs]
Do you think if the format of this season was different than "Free Agents" then you'd still be around?
I loved "Free Agents." I thought it was great. When I was on "Duel 2," I was the fifth guy to leave, and on "Free Agents" I was the fifth guy to leave, so I don't think it really matters what format it is. Everyone in the house knows my attitude. I'm not there to party, I just don't care a lot. I'm in the middle. Whereas some of the people in this house, this is their lifestyle, their main source of income and their identity. That's just not me and everyone knows it. So I get along with everyone, I make the house fun, so everyone keeps me around until s*** in the house gets serious. I'm the first to go out of the competitors and the last to go out of the lames.
Has your time on "The Challenge" taught you anything that can help you stay around longer next time?
No! Absolutely not! I'm never going to learn. I just don't give a f*** [laughs].
I appreciate the honesty! [laughs] So I know that there's always a lot of footage that doesn't make it to air every season. Is there anything you wish that MTV would have shown?
Yes! Everything! I think it's a MTV motto, "If Isaac likes something, cut it." There were like real life conversations, life affirming stuff that we did and talked about, and none of it is shown, and all the stuff I hate is highlighted vehemently. I don't even know what vehemently means but I know it works here. To MTV, if it's not fighting or f***ing, it gets cut.
"The Challenge: Free Agents" airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.

"I don't see how you can deny that..."
ADDED: Some people don't understand vlogging. I think a nice vlog for a blog post makes the blog bloggier, but some people are alarmed by blogginess. It brings out the you-a-law-professor side of a lot of people. Some people want the heavy signs of trustworthiness, like they try to serve up on the network news. If you cut into that with low-tech recording, rough edges, and -- oh, I don't know -- a glass of wine... it can really bend some people out of shape. But what's bloggier than bending people out of shape?

Ann - generally I'll go where your links send me. Honest. But don't send me there again. Please.
Now I'm scared for the rest of the day. - 4/4/07, 8:24 AM

Vlogging indeed brings something new to the table -- and how can they miss it? -- just as blogging does, in that ordinary people (not talking heads) have the chance to express themselves in media with the possibility of drawing an audience, whereas it was only the established big guys before, and viewers were forcefed their choice of content, their formats. The everyday guy is what is new to the table, where it may have been just suits and money before. There are a lot of innovative thinkers out here that have their own voices and needed a platform/audience, and now they have it and the potential to make a name for themselves, through a backdoor. What the indie trend did for music and film, blogs and vlogs are doing for entertainment and news. It's a packaged deal.

Please- I wouldn't trust the simps that run network (and local!) news any further than I could throw Dan Rather. - 4/4/07, 9:38 AM

How the hell is this even remotely new? People blabbing semi-coherently to a camera?
It only proves that there's a reason most of us prefer to watch good looking, trained people deliver the news and opinions. - 4/4/07, 10:51 AM

Video is video, no matter the genre.
You've got to make it compelling and inject an urgency. Go on a crying jag, reveal startling information, be creative etc..
Peace, Maxine - 4/4/07, 11:06 AM

For me, a video blog means that I can't load it onto my mp3 player and listen to it in my car during the commute. If I want to listen I have to be in the same place as my computer. I never bother to watch as it's just talking heads.
It's not that there's anything wrong with talking heads as such. It's just that all the useful information is in the audio. The video is just a gimmick. I suppose that the video can be worth the huge bandwidth required but I haven't seen one yet where the video was worth the trouble. - 4/4/07, 11:52 AM

HD: Matt isn't THAT bad in that vlog is he? (You'll notice I'm asking because after one look at the screen, I clicked out ;-)
I enjoy reading Yglesias far more than I like most of his vlogs and bloggingheads appearances. OTOH, I tend to really enjoy David Corn's vlogs. - 4/4/07, 11:54 AM

Look, nobody likes an infidelity story. We'd all love to think that vows are vows and if you go to all the trouble to say them, you'd better mean them! Of course, there are always the exceptions to the rule. The press has erupted this week with stories of Tony Parker straying in his marriage to Eva Longoria.
]]>Erin Barry. She's the ex-wife of Parker's former San Antonio Spurs teammate, Brent Barry. Brent and Parker played basketball together for four years. He now works as a sports analyst for NBA TV, and he filed for divorce from Erin just before Halloween. Longoria allegedly discovered hundreds of texts sent between her husband and Erin over the last few months. She subsequently filed for divorce. Access Hollywood's Billy Bush reached out to Barry for a comment, but she burst into tears. ""We spoke to erin barry…Brent Barry's wife from San Antonio Spurs…she cried and said "No comment," Bush tweeted. Can we just throw this out there to the married famous folks of the world? Don't cheat on your spouse. We don't actually want to write about this stuff. You leave us no choice.

We were tickled by a recent shoutout from Contactology, the Durham-based company that powers the Nasher Museum's weekly e-newsletter.
Contactology summarized the past year for clients in an article, "2013: The Year Marketers Got Smarter (But Also Panicked a Little)."
"Images work, if used correctly. The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University used heat maps and other reporting data to discover that their subscribers were more likely to click on images than text links. The result: a successful redesign and better engagement."

Now that the temperature has dropped about 20 degrees this week, our seemingly never ending sun porch projects have almost come to an end. Just in time for….next year. Today Dain put the finishing touches on the baseboards and trim, cleaned everything, and put our bistro set back in its home under our candle lanterns. It's looking very whimsical in there, and we are looking forward to the day when we can enjoy a cocktail in there with the sun shining in.
Dain began his work today by sanding smooth the nail holes that he filled after installing all of the baseboards and trim around the sliding glass door.
Then he used a brush and the same Decorator White paint that we used on the window trim to paint one coat over all of the wood filler. After that, he used a combination of the brush and a small foam roller to give one final coat to all of the new trim.
And it is looking pretty good. To recap our summer progress, we primed and painted the window trim, painted the walls with a few coats of Mango Madness, stenciled the ceiling with a Moroccan pattern, tiled the floor, installed new baseboards throughout and trim around the sliding glass door, and installed curtain rods and curtains.
And it is a huge improvement over where we started (with nasty carpet and completely unfinished windows and walls.)
We had a lot of other projects going on throughout the summer, but we kept knocking out a few sections of this room one at a time. We didn't get as far on it as we hoped, but we are pretty happy with where we are at with it.
The room desperately needs a rug and a little more decoration. And we also have plans to build in a mini-bar counter and a bench because the slope is so severe in here that anything we buy would be tilted. But with built-ins, we can hopefully compensate for that problem and provide a little more seating and storage. Now we are on to our winter projects: insulating our furnace room and creating a light and airy guest bedroom and office combo.

I just love this recipe, and I have to tell you, I am not sure why I made it in the first place, because I was absolutely sure it was going to be a disaster. But I found the recipe on the Steamy Kitchen blog (quick aside: Steamy Kitchen is a fabulous recipe site, written and photographed by the even more fabulous Jaden Hair. Jaden is one of those rock star food bloggers with a television show and a huge blog and a cookbook…and she still took the time to visit my little blog when it was in its toddler stages and leave me an encouraging comment that made me think — hey, maybe I can actually DO this. Jaden, you rock, and I hope everyone in the USA buys your new cookbook.)
Anyway, Jaden made these dumplings look so good and sound so easy that I put them on the menu and got the ingredients. And scheduled them for a weekday dinner. And then got home on that weeknight and thought to myself — am I NUTS?? The recipe made 50 of them, and I could just see myself making dumplings into the wee hours of the morning and then watching them all self-destruct as I put them into the boiling water.
So I enlisted the helpful Southern husband, figuring it would be comforting to share the blame when everything went South (went South…Southern husband…get it?? I crack myself up!) and we got down to it. And you know what? 15 minutes later we had 50 adorable looking little pork dumplings. I held my breath and lowered them into the boiling water, and 6 minutes later we had the most perfect little cooked dumplings. Not a single one fell apart. I popped them onto plates with a puddle of Sweet Ginger Chili sauce (see link below) and they were as light and tender and delicious as can be.
I got this fabulous sauce at Fairway (natch!) but you can order it online and I promise you won't be sorry.Anyway, thank you to the amazing Jaden for this recipe, and go check out her website AND her great new cookbook:
Happy dumplings!

So true. I was very surprised to learn that lithium batteries have an energy density in the same ballpark as gunpowder and dynamite. Small wonder that one of them cutting loose and letting all that power go at once is a big deal.
> A lithium-air battery has an energy density (per kilo) comparable to traditional gasoline
It's still got problems to overcome, but the point is, battery storage is only getting better.
If solar energy were dirt cheap but batteries were still for shit, then yeah, using H2 as a storage medium wouldn't be so bad. However, both PVCs and batteries are getting better all the time. The latest lithium-air batteries actually have the same energy density as gasoline. H2's density is still better of course, but has a host of storage problems that make even a lesser storage system more appealing.

At least now the school knows not to include camera-enabled surveillance software on the phones.
Space suits in general and the SAS in particular are why I no longer give a rat's ass what happens to NASA. Cut their funding, Congress orders them to start launching their rockets upside-down, I couldn't care less. NASA had a working prototype of a replacement for those injurious, exhausting, and dangerous inflatable suits 40 goddamn years ago, and they flushed it down the toilet and haven't looked back since.
The future of the human race is in outer space, but NASA will have zero role in it. Giving them money would be no better than throwing it away.
Am I the only one who remembers seeing this sort of 3-d painting reproduction featured on Beyond 2000 a good 20 years ago? They made a rubber mold of the original painting, printed the copy either with special ink or onto a surface that could be flash melted to fit the mold.
Copyrights with a theoretical duration of nearly 2 centuries (max human lifespan plus 70 years) is kinda stretching the definition of the word "temporary".
Not really. The tools are impressive, but mostly in how they try to overcome the crippling need to run remotely from umpteen million miles away.
Let's have a look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curiosity_(rover)#Instruments
Lists 14 instruments. But 5 of them are just cameras, strategically placed because they can't be moved. My friend the amateur photographer could do much better with her DSLR. The "environmental monitoring station" measures humidity, pressure, temperatures, wind speeds, and ultraviolet radiation; not exactly groundbreaking stuff here. Same with radiation assessment. There's a robotic arm capable of drilling holes a whopping 2" deep and a dust removal tool, commonly known as a 'broom'. The "Dynamic Albedo of Neutrons" sounds sexy as hell, but then you realize a person with a trowel could do the same job.
The other instruments are all spectrometers and a chromatograph. The means by which they work are novel, due to the aforementioned remote requirements, but the end result is not really different from what could be done in any decent lab 50 years ago. Honestly, a decent scientist with a shovel and a few thousand dollars in high school lab gear could do better than all the rovers ever sent. God help us if we ever needed a probe to do something _really_ difficult.
So by all means, send what probes are needed to figure out how to get people there, but anything beyond that will just provide minimal information at enormous cost.
I always was rather impressed with those Quantum drives. I had a Quantum 1.2GB hdd in my computer when we suffered a house fire, and that drive was the only piece of electronics to survive in usable condition. Indeed, it lasted a good 4 or 5 years beyond that.
NASA sure does dream big, considering they can barely even get to LEO these days. Their launch capacity has been diminishing steadily for the past 40 years. Thank goodness it's not entirely up to them anymore.
> Wake me up when every single AI agent is simulated in detail with urges, wants, needs, desires, disgust, hatred, genetics, a simulated lifespan from birth to death....
I did like that part of the Total War series. The lifespan of your family members is a real concern. Train a son up into a terrifyingly competent commander, then he goes dies of old age? Fuck! Definitely a good start, though.
How about a massively multiplayer civ game? Run it at or nearly at realtime, so no tech tree. BUt every city, every army, everyone in any sort of position of power is controlled by a real person, all jockeying for MORE.

Before teaming up in 1953, Burt Baskin and Irv Robbins were seasoned business owners with their own ice-cream shops. The words "unusual varieties" shone high above each shop, signaling their respective owners' passion for anything but an ordinary dessert experience. When the two got together, it was natural that they'd adopt the theme of "31 flavors," one for each day of the month. Since then, Baskin-Robbins has introduced more than 1,000 flavors and opened shops with more than 5,800 franchise owners worldwide. Even their little pink tasting spoon has become a staple as a way to make flavor browsing an event by allowing guests to try specialties without paying cash or chicken-based trade for the privilege.

The global financial crisis is several years in the rearview mirror, yet global debt is at an all-time high in dollar terms, and even larger as a share of global GDP than before the crisis. The overhang of leverage is an integral reason why PIMCO sees a New Neutral of abnormally low monetary policy rates that will persist over the secular horizon of three to five years. In the following interview, Daniel Ivascyn, Deputy Chief Investment Officer for income and alternative strategies, discusses the status of financial regulation and shares PIMCO's long-term outlook on lending institutions and related capital markets. He also highlights opportunities for investors with patient capital. Q: Reregulation of the international financial system has been a theme of the post-financial-crisis era. Now that the global economy is healing and converging toward slower but increasingly stable growth, will policymakers ease up? Ivascyn: Over our three- to five-year secular horizon, we expect a modest relaxation in financial regulations. Nevertheless, we expect the regulatory environment to remain significantly more restrictive than what we have observed in the past, which will impede the loosening of credit standards in both mortgages and other forms of consumer credit. Given this backdrop, we have not seen, nor do we expect to see, a material loosening in credit standards, which was typical in prior economic recoveries. As long as credit growth remains muted, this will be a headwind for economic growth. Many of these financial regulations are highly complex, and in some cases these financial regulations have not yet been finalized. Given the uncertainty in both the regulations themselves, and the implications of these regulations, many market and industry participants have constricted lending standards until there is more clarity. Consequently, the lending that is taking place is at higher rates or to a smaller subset of borrowers than under prior regulatory regimes. This is particularly true across the regulated banking sector. As for the U.S. housing market, we think that governmental agencies such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will continue to be the primary providers of mortgage credit, only gradually loosening their underwriting guidelines. Nevertheless, significant market frictions will remain. Q: What is the outlook for global banks over the secular horizon? Ivascyn: Overall, banks have made a lot of progress in repairing their balance sheets, and we expect this trend to continue. Nevertheless, there are still some banks that will have to be restructured, and we see some concerning trends developing in China. In general, we believe U.S. banks are among the healthiest. Not only are bank leverage ratios lower than before the crisis, we have seen stabilization in U.S. housing prices, and expect U.S. national housing prices to increase by another 3%–4% a year over the next two years, which should be positive for bank credit quality. In Europe, while we have seen significant progress in terms of bank balance sheet repair, European banks entered the financial crisis with materially more leverage than U.S. banks, and economic growth in Europe has lagged the U.S. Consequently, European banks have a lot further to go in deleveraging their balance sheets. Over the next few years we expect to see European banks continue their strategy of asset dispositions and capital raises to deleverage their balance sheets. As for banks outside the developed world, they are generally in good health, but they still face challenges. For example, Chinese banks are confronted with issues and pressures related to rapid credit expansion that are spreading to other developing economies and sectors that rely on Chinese economic growth. Q: How do these trends create opportunities? Ivascyn: These trends are shifting the opportunity set in favor of certain sectors and strategies. As financial institutions deleverage and sell non-core assets, for instance, we are looking to capitalize on potential dislocations that may result in investment solutions for our clients. These distressed sales have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns. In Europe, we expect banks will dispose of some $1 trillion in non-core assets, including residential and commercial real estate as well as corporate securities. This is slightly less than what the market had predicted as banks recently have been successful at raising additional capital in the marketplace. Relative to the capital dedicated to those opportunities, it remains a quite large and significant investment opportunity. Moreover, the prolonged and significant dislocation in some legacy structured products will continue to result in investment opportunities. Compared with the pre-crisis environment, the number of assets getting securitized and then rated by ratings agencies has fallen sharply, which has led to significant opportunities for investors that are not constrained by ratings. As markets heal, we anticipate there will be ways to exploit the return of market liquidity via securitizations. To make the most of these opportunities, however, investors will likely need the strengths of firms that have the capacity, diligence and experience to conduct deep analysis, offer and manage comprehensive solutions, and optimize eventual exits. Another attractive opportunity is to provide capital in areas where banks are no longer participating. In the past, particularly pre-crisis, financial institutions and Wall Street broker-dealers committed a lot of capital to arbitrage away market mispricings and localized market volatility. Now these institutions are much less involved due to regulation as well as some bad experiences during the 2007–2008 period. As a result, these pricing displacements tend to linger a bit longer than previously. This is true across volatility markets, interest rate markets and credit markets, and provides opportunities to investors with longer-term investment horizons. Q: What are the implications of The New Neutral for interest rates, and for income opportunities in fixed income strategies? Ivascyn: Central banks are likely to remain accommodative and keep policy rates abnormally low for an extended period of time: longer, in fact, than most market participants seem to expect. In the U.S., for example, we view the Federal Reserve as moving slowly to a neutral policy rate of roughly 2% nominal in the years ahead (0% after adjusting for inflation – what we call The New Neutral rate). Why the low policy rates? There remains excess capacity across global economies and labor markets, and shifting demographics, which will contribute to lower growth and reduce inflationary pressure. In addition, policymakers are likely to feel constrained by the overhang of global leverage, which remains at peak levels. Given that the intermediate portion of the yield curve will benefit from the stability of policy rates, we find that portion of the yield curve to be attractive. In contrast, the long end of the interest rate curve is subject to significant mark-to-market volatility, and we do not believe that the current level of rates is sufficient to compensate for these risks. In general, credit spreads are tight, but having the resources to scour the global opportunity set allows us to concentrate our capital in select opportunities that are attractive, such as in U.S. non-agency MBS, higher-quality emerging market opportunities and select senior secured corporate exposures.

This week was the United States GR8Conf, and we were lucky enough to have it right here in Minneapolis. GR8Conf is a conference focusing on Groovy and Grails and is held in the US, Europe, and Australia. Refactr was one of the sponsors this year as well.
The conference started off on Sunday with a few introductory sessions to get attendees up to speed on Groovy and Grails. Monday and Tuesday had 4 different tracks of presentations over 5 sessions for a grand total of 40 different presentations. There were also 3 keynote addresses from Graeme Rocher on the current state and future of Grails, Dr. Venkat Subramaniam on the rise and fall of programming languages, and Dierk König having some fun with Groovy.
There seemed to be a focus on using Grails for mobile development, using Async and REST interfaces, and developing for the cloud. There also seemed to be some crowd favorites like "Contributing Back to Grails" by Bobby Warner, "Future-proof scaffolding with the Fields plugin" by Rob Fletcher, and "Git Core Concepts" by Ted Naleid.
The slides and code samples from the talks are being collected on github here. There was also talk of delivering some videos of the presentations on the GR8Conf website.
Shaun Jurgemeyer and everyone else did a great job of organizing this event and I'm looking forward to next year.

Laura PalmerEdwards Bio
Laura Palmer Edwards, a writer and PR veteran, returned to the studio and art class in 2002 after a 25-year hiatus. She was lured back into painting in response to overwhelming grief and used art as therapy and in the process awakened a long repressed dream.
Strongly influenced by a School of the Museum of Fine Arts class called Art as Process, the philosophy and freedom unleashed an emerging artist: 'The artist sets a process in motion with traditional and non-traditional materials and often repeatedly applies a process, allowing the work to evolve. The means justify the end.' For Palmer Edwards, involvement in ' Art As Process' set in motion a dramatic life shift where her focus became making art. Her first major sale was during the December Sale Fundraiser at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, generating sales in excess of $1500, and was named a Medici Scholar.
She has produced and sold hundreds of original paintings and mixed media images since 2002. Her works hang in numerous institutional and private collections in the U.S. and abroad including Wellesley College, Novations, Inc, The Denver Post
Newspaper, and in the private collection of Freida Klein and Mitch Kapor, S.F. based philanthropists,and Edmund Barry Gaither, noted art scholar and curator of the Roxbury based National Center of Afro- American Art, among others.
She works from her home studio and shows her work through private showcases, select vendor opportunities,and juried group exhibits. She is interested in representation.
In July 2006 she embarked on a 2-week intensive studio art program in Amsterdam, Holland, with 13 other working artists with instructors from the SMFA in Boston. Upon her return, Palmer Edwards was selected to showcase her work during the founding event of the N.E. Arts Chapter of The Society, a national arts organization supporting emerging African American artists.
June 2007 debuted Life Dance, Laura's solo show at Boston's Gallery at the Piano Factory. The show contained 40 pieces of work. Art Historian and curator Cecilia Levin said, ' One of Laura Palmer Edwards' great talents is her thorough exploration of the potentiality of every aspect...color, line, shape, contour, texture, body language, patterning and the interplay of mixed media. Nothing is ignored, yet in each of her works she magically seams a myriad of elements into bold and enlivened compositions that truly "dance". Her symphonic approach to her art is used primarily in the exaltation of womanhood and to express the need for feminine self-discovery. As a result her canvases resonate with the journey to finding one's true "life dance".As an artist, Palmer Edwards is interested in exploring new media, mono-printmaking, collage and painting.
