There's an endless array of minimalist, "distraction free" text editors to capture notes and ideas, but what about more visual, free-form thoughts? Fapptory's $7 Delineato Pro (Mac App Store link) is a new diagramming and mind-mapping Mac app with a clean design and lack of visual clutter.
Each Delineato Pro document starts fresh with a gray canvas that is limitless in size. There are five other themes to choose from, but they're mostly similar. To add to the canvas, either double or right-click to bring up a palette of shapes and lines, then drag the desired object onto the canvas. A grid can be enabled to help you align objects.
There are two simple ways to connect shapes. You can just drop a line out of the palette, then drag each end to connect it to a shape. Alternatively, click on a shape, then drag on one of the pop-up arrows to draw a line to another shape. If you just drag a line out of a shape and drop it on a blank spot in the canvas, it will create another shape of the same type.
There are a number of shapes to choose from, like clouds, but there are also purpose-specific shapes intended for Concepts, Tasks, Ideas, and Notes. You also have a selection of lines to choose from, including my favorite, a curved line that makes just about any diagram look elegant.
Some aspects of Delineato Pro aren't so elegant, though. On my 2011 MacBook Pro, text appears blurry when using the default light gray background. The grayness of the text blends with the grayness of the background, detracting from readability. Changing the background to dark removes this issue. Also, in my experiments, the Cochin italic typeface that the app uses looked the least blurry on a light background.
Another drawback is the lack of OPML support, which is the standard import/export format of most diagramming and mind-mapping apps. Nor is there a corresponding iOS app, so for now, your drawings are trapped on the Mac.
Despite that, there are plenty of built-in ways to share a drawing, including email, Twitter, Facebook, and even AirDrop. By default, Delineato Pro saves to iCloud, with Dropbox support planned for a future release.
Delineato Pro takes its Zen-inspired minimalism seriously. There is an option to play "Zen Music" as you work, which is a relaxing theme with chimes and piano. However, the music clip is only a few seconds long, so it gets old fast.
Delineato Pro is a wonderfully minimal app that still needs a bit of polish. But for a mere $7, it's hard to pass up investing in an app with an awesome future in store. Once import/export and blurry text are fixed, Delineato Pro will be a beautiful bargain of a diagramming app.

When Love AwaitsOnce Lady Leonie cursed 'the Black Wolf' - handsome Rolfe d'Ambert, the mercenary Lord of Kempston - for his bloody deeds and cruelty to the local peasants. Now she must marry the magnificent blackguard to bring peace to the land. Young, innocent, and possessing a rare and exquisite beauty, Leonie would be a prize for any man - yet Rolfe seeks the match solely for revenge. But her sensuous kiss ignites within him the fiery need to claim her - and an irresistible desire to unite their warring hearts in glorious love. |

Mandated Concussion Training For High School Coaches Takes Effect In January
Tuesday, August 28, 2012
Aired 8/28/12 on KPBS News.
A new law requires high school coaches to bone up on concussions every two years.
SAN DIEGO High school coaches in California will have to learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of concussions. A new law requiring concussion training will take effect in January.
High school coaches already have to take first aid training, but the new law adds a course on concussions that must be completed every two years.
Carmel Valley resident Beth Mallon's son Tommy suffered three concussions playing high school sports. Mallon said making coaches more aware of the problem is only half of the battle.
"The coach can only do so much if he doesn't have good knowledge from the athlete," Mallon explained. "In other words, if the athlete isn't speaking up, it's very difficult for the coach to then do his job."
State law requires schools to take athletes who've suffered a concussion out of the game and get medical clearance before they can return. Football and girls soccer have the highest rates of concussions.

The face of a pyramid
We have decided to remove the
fallen rubble from the north face of the pyramid to see if there might be
further indications of how and when it was built and how it may have been
connected to the pyramid of one of the most important kings buried at El Kurru—Piye
(also called Piankhy)—whose pyramid burial is immediately to the north.
This work will also transform the
appearance of the pyramid and of the site. The pyramid was built of stone
blocks around a rubble core. Right now, it's mostly the rubble core that's
visible—the upper stone blocks were taken for re-use elsewhere in medieval
times, and the rubble simply spilled out over the pyramid stones.
We are excited to see how this will develop in the remainder of the season.
8 comments:
Hi Brian,
There are three kind of separate teams working at El Kurru, but we work together really well--in some contexts as just two teams and in some contexts as one. We try to work at the same time so that we can coordinate our activities--it's also more rewarding to be in the field at the same time.

First-of-its-Kind Technology Park Created in Knoxville-Oak Ridge Innovation Valley
May 30, 2006, 01:00 ET from East Tennessee Economic Development Agency
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., May 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Business leaders and officials in the Knoxville-Oak Ridge Innovation Valley announced plans today to build the nation's first technology park located at a national laboratory. Work will begin this summer on the Oak Ridge Science and Technology Park on the campus of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The lab has constructed nearly $2 billion in new facilities in the recent years, including the Spallation Neutron Source, which is the nation's largest science project, and the Center for Computational Sciences, which is assembling the world's fastest super computer. In addition to the lab, the Knoxville-Oak Ridge Innovation Valley is home to the University of Tennessee, the Tennessee Valley Authority headquarters and more than 1,000 tech-based companies. The Innovation Valley was recently recognized by Forbes magazine as one of the top five hottest business metro areas in the country. The Oak Ridge Science and Technology Park will be available for private sector companies and will be used to help create new companies from technologies developed at ORNL. The technology park already has announced its first tenant. Pro2Serve Professional Project Services Inc., an engineering services firm, will construct a $15 million, 100,000-square-foot facility to serve as the company's National Security Engineering Center and corporate headquarters. Pro2Serve plans to add approximately 200 new employees to its staff. Pro2Serve President Barry Goss said the decision to locate within a national lab was based on "strong relationships with Department of Energy and the lab in deploying national security technologies." Gerald Boyd, manager of the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge office, said the lab "develops some of the world's most important new technologies. One of our priorities is to help make those technologies available for new companies and new jobs." The park property will be managed by the Community Reuse Organization of East Tennessee (CROET). ORNL Director Jeff Wadsworth predicts the park -- in combination with the lab's nanotech, biotech, computing capabilities and energy research -- will attract "universities, large established companies, and small start-up companies. Each can benefit from the unique resources we have in Oak Ridge." Oak Ridge National Laboratory is managed for the Department of Energy by a partnership between the University of Tennessee and Battelle.

In the sentence he's behaving like he owns the place, like is a conjunction meaning 'as if', a usage regarded as incorrect in standard English. Although like has been used as a conjunction in this way since the 15th century by many respected writers, it is still frowned upon and considered unacceptable in formal English, where as if should be used instead

'Days of our Lives': Special Extended Fall Preview
DAYS has discharged an "expanded fall review" video that gives a tremendous sneak look to what's in store in Salem. Hattie returns (with Deidre Hall in a double part), Adrienne breakdown, Jade uncovers she's pregnant and that's only the tip of the iceberg.
Missed Day of #DAYS? We've got you covered. Here's a sneak peek at what's to come this fall on #DAYS.
Justin told Hope and Rafe that he made a deal for her with the D.A. Justin also told her that she has Judge Fitzpatrick as her judge. Rafe said that the judge was on the DiMera payroll. Justin said he would have the case thrown out if the judge didn't rule the case fairly. Andre busted Abby checking on Thomas. She hid when Chad showed up. When Chad left, she came back out and told him that she wanted to check on her mother and son. JJ told Gabi about what led him to cheat on her. Victor found Theresa unconscious. Jennifer went to see Hope at the police station.
Gabi wondered how JJ knew he cheated on her when he didn't remember what happened. He told her why he thought he knew he cheated on her. Gabi was furious that JJ had sex with her after he cheated on her. Victor called Kayla to get Theresa. She was upset with him for not letting the medics in the mansion. He wanted to keep it quiet and would explain later. She said she would try to get the drugs out of Theresa's stomach. JJ asked Gabi to forgive him for cheating on her. Hope asked Jennifer about Ciara. Jennifer said Ciara was okay. Hope thanked Jennifer for everything she has done.
Andre promised Abby that he wouldn't tell Chad that she was back. A flashback was shown showing her telling Andre about leaving Chad the note when she escaped from Shady Hill. She didn't want Chad to spend his life with his crazy wife. She wanted him to have a new life with Thomas. Andre thought Chad would never stop looking for her. She wanted Andre's help to help her disappear.
After the flashback was over, Abby reminded Andre about helping her disappear. She wanted to hold Thomas for a few minutes. Just as she was about to hold the baby, Chad was about to come in the room. Chad noticed that the door was locked. Abby was gone when Chad got in the room. Chad was suspicious when Andre quickly left the mansion.

The statements of a girl about sexual assaults that happened four years ago led to the arrest of a Sutherland man on Thursday.
The girl told the interviewer that four years ago, 27-year-old Wray D. Dodrill of North Platte sexually assaulted her. She was about 10-years-old at the time.
She said the assaults happened nightly and repetitively for more than a year while she lived in Hershey.
Investigators also talked to an adult woman who said the girl told her the same story, that Dodrill had sexually assaulted her on many occasions.
Dodrill, who now lives in Sutherland, was interviewed on Thursday by Lincoln County Sheriffs Investigators. He denied the assaults but investigators believed there was enough evidence to charge him with five counts of first-degree sexual assault of a child.
The counts include oral and vaginal intercourse, according to court statements Friday.
In court, Dodrill asked for a relatively low bond. He said he is the only provider for his family, which includes two children.
Lincoln County Judge Kent Turnbull said he understands "this is an important issue for you, but the reality is the victim was 10 years old and it happened repeatedly over the period of a year."
Bond was set at $250,000.
Dodrill has struggled with alcohol in the past. In February 2012, he was pulled over for going 20 miles an hour over the speed limit on a U.S. highway. His blood alcohol content was over 0.15. He was charged with driving under the influence second offense. He told the court he was seeking treatment.

Treating Your Neck Pain After An Auto Accident
Neck injuries or whiplash can be disruptive and painful, especially after an auto accident in which whiplash is the most common injury caused by rear end collisions. Studies say around 75% of whiplash patients experience symptoms for more than six months. Whiplash patients also can lose up to eight weeks of work.
Depending on the severity of the injury, neck pain or whiplash can cause the following symptoms: Dizziness, fatigue, pain, weakness, numbness and tingling down the legs and arms, sleeplessness and headaches. Some or all of these symptoms may take weeks or even months before presenting themselves. Whiplash syndrome can cause all these symptoms to linger for months.
But there are ways of treating neck pain after an auto accident. Experts say if following these easy, self-care steps can help speed up your recovery.
See Your Doctor
After any auto accident it's always best to see your doctor for an evaluation. Your doctor may well suggest using a neck brace (called a Cervical Collar) for 2 to 3 weeks along with pain medications, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antidepressants, muscle relaxants, until the pain ebbs away.
Cold Therapy
Applying ice (either a bag of ice cubes or even a bag of frozen food) with a towel between the skin and the frozen item, to the neck for the first 24 hours will reduce inflammation. Try ice at 20 minute intervals while lying on one's side.
Heat Therapy
Alternate by applying dry or moist heat to the area. This helps relax the muscles.
Pain Relief
Try normal painkillers and NSAIDS then consult your primary doctor if headaches, pain or stiffness don't subside.
Neck Exercises
Turn the head so you can look over your right shoulder. Hold. Rest. Repeat looking over alternate shoulder. Rest. Repeat. Use a soft ball. First place the back of the head on the ball, resting on a wall. Try moving the ball in circles, or in figures of eight. Rest. Repeat. Try the same exercise, but now placing the ball between the forehead and the wall.
Support Neck During Sleep
WebMD suggests applying a small pillow beneath the nape of the neck to align the head with the neck and offer better support during sleep.
Staying Active
Until recently, doctors recommended lots of rest for those with neck injuries. But recent research out of the Harvard Medical School suggests the contrary. Now, experts say consistent movement and exercise will help resolve neck pain (along with shoulder pain) and speed up recovery considerably. Exercises targeting the neck and shoulders can help build strength in these areas along with accelerating recovery.
Chiropractor and Physical Therapist

Michael Carter-Williams, who put his name in the NBA record books in his first game as a pro player, was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week for helping to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 3-0 start.
Kevin Love, who in three games has shown how good he can be when he's healthy, has led the Minnesota Timberwolves to an undefeated start as well. He was named the Player of the Week in the Western Conference.
Carter-Williams is only the second player to get this award to begin his rookie season -- with Shaquille O'Neal in 1992 being the first . Carter-Williams, the 11th overall selection in the 2013 NBA Draft, averaged 20.7 points and team highs of 9 assists and 4.3 steals.
In his NBA debut on Oct. 30, a 114-110 home win vs. the Miami Heat, Carter-Williams recorded 22 points, 12 assists, nine steals and seven rebounds. The nine steals were the most by a rookie in his NBA debut, while the 12 assists represented the second most for a player in his first NBA game (Buffalo's Ernie DiGregorio dished 14 assists in his NBA debut in 1973). Philadelphia has wins vs. the Heat and Chicago Bulls
Love led Minnesota to a 3-0 mark, the second time in franchise history the Timberwolves have opened the season with at least three straight wins.
Love paced the team in scoring and rebounding each game, averaging a league-best 29.7 points and ranking with 4.7 rebounds. He had at least 30 points and 15 rebounds twice, giving him 20 such games since entering the league in 2008-09, second over that span to Dwight Howard (23). In the team's season opener Oct. 30 – a 120-115 overtime victory against the Orlando Magic -- Love finished with 31 points and 17 rebounds, and sank the game-tying three-pointer to force overtime.
Here is a recap of the week for Carter-Williams and Love:
Michael Carter-Williams, Philadelphia 76ers
Oct. 30 vs. Miami: Recorded 22 points, 12 assists, nine steals and seven rebounds in a 114-110 win vs. the Heat
Nov. 1 @ Washington: Contributed 14 points, five assists and three boards in a 109-102 victory at Washington.
Nov. 2 vs. Chicago: Posted a double-double with 26 points and 10 assists in a 107-104 win against the Bulls.
Kevin Love, Minnesota Timberwolves
Oct. 30 vs. Orlando: Scored 37 points, including a three to force overtime, and grabbed 17 rebounds in a 120-115 OT win vs. the Magic.
Nov. 1 vs. Oklahoma City: Posted 24 points, 12 rebounds and two steals in a 100-81 victory vs. the Thunder.
Nov. 3 @ New York: Recorded 34 points, 15 rebounds and five assists in 109-100 road win against the Knicks.
Other nominee: Orlando's Arron Afflalo, Portland's LaMarcus Aldridge, Phoenix's Eric Bledsoe, New Orleans' Anthony Davis, Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant, Indiana's Paul George, Detroit's Greg Monroe, and the L.A. Clippers Chris Paul.

This build video is for Reddit user TheCenterOfEnnui, who asked the /r/buildapc community for help building a computer with his 12 year-old son. His original post was here. Since TheCenterOfEnnui did not have any experience building a computer, I offered to help by creating a build video tailored to the parts he would be using. I'm happy he accepted my offer, and this video is the result of that.
I purchased the exact same part list that he will be using with his son, and filmed my build step by step. Some of the things he will run into, I ran into during filming (like short power supply cables). Hopefully this video can serve as a guide if they run into any difficulties.
I will be auctioning off this completed build with 100% of the proceeds going to benefit Charity:water, a non-profit organization that provides clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries.

The city of Stockton's bankruptcy case is winding down, but the tantalizing issue of whether the city can or should use bankruptcy court to further reduce pensions that people have earned is still capturing media fascination. I thought I'd share an informed perspective and try to clarify this issue within the rubric of municipal bankruptcy.
First, I'd like to clear the air: CalPERS costs did not push Stockton into bankruptcy any more than it did the other 482 cities in this state. This was a narrative pushed by certain creditors in the earlier stages of the Stockton case because it served their interests. Immediately, the media echo chamber repeated it so often that it became established fact to almost everyone. This is not to say more pension reform is not necessary. We need more reform, but it must be statewide.
Second, no one is asking what happens if Stockton further reduces its CalPERS pensions, or explaining how it might work. It requires rejecting the CalPERS contract. Doing so will not produce any more cash for other creditors to divvy up in bankruptcy or to fund more services. Moreover, state law provides a financial incentive for employees to find another CalPERS job within six months after terminating the CalPERS contract. Stockton would experience a massive employee exodus, and retirees would experience a huge reduction in benefits, to well below the poverty line.
In order to be a viable municipality, Stockton would have to find a new retirement plan that would allow it to compete in the marketplace. In the end, Stockton doesn't save money, and its capacity to provide services drops to dangerous levels. Moody's latest pronouncement that cities will file for bankruptcy protection to get out from under their CalPERS bills is ridiculous, because once cities understand what happens in this scenario, they will quickly realize this will lead to their undoing as a viable city.
This is why Stockton's creditors, at least at the beginning, and definitely Moody's to this day, are dead wrong yet again.
After two years, no one has announced a cheaper CalPERS alternative that works in the California public sector. While it is delaying Stockton's bankruptcy exit and causing more police officers to leave, the bankruptcy judge is taking additional time and digging beneath the CalPERS rhetoric. I think he will quickly see Stockton's calculus for weighing the benefits vs. harm of impairing the CalPERS contracts.
Chapter 9 of the federal bankruptcy code and the criteria for success in these difficult situations is much different than the other bankruptcy chapters. Cities cannot disappear and be liquidated to pay their creditors like private companies. Moreover, cities need to be "service solvent," i.e. provide adequate services, after exiting bankruptcy. At the outset, the judges in Stockton and Detroit focused on this point. Stockton could not impair its CalPERS contracts and ensure future service solvency, due to the effects mentioned above.
Virtually all local government employees in California are receiving a CalPERS or similar pension plan. How many large employers can ignore their de facto labor market standard and recruit substandard compensation? Knowing this, Stockton pursued a surgical plan that cut employee pay by 9 to 23 percent, completely rewrote labor contracts to save millions, and eliminated retiree medical benefits. We also restructured the massive debt the city owed and the financial service companies screamed about it, as have their allies at Moody's. But what they ignore is that employees gave up 34 to 70 percent of their future retirement packages, depending on when they were hired. Many retirees gave up 34 percent of their retirement package, and many of them are not eligible for Social Security. What more do people want from them, and why?
We lost 100 police officers in a very compressed time frame due to the cuts mentioned above. What do you think they will do if Stockton goes after their pensions next? California cities have rigorous standards for hiring police officers. It takes 100 applicants to fill one police officer position, where they are given a gun and huge discretion in our communities. Stockton has highly trained paramedics and water or wastewater treatment plant operators. Would you have concerns with your airplane pilot or surgeon if they were getting substandard compensation?
I encourage people to look behind the ideology and beyond the rhetoric. As the city manager of Stockton, I consumed more time focusing on the safety of our citizens than most of my peers. My successor can ill afford the catastrophic effects from playing out people's displeasure with CalPERS.

In this age of social media and all-you-can-eat news sources, secrets never stay secret for long. Most of us knew a full five days before the plane towing the anti-David Moyes banner sputtered over Old Trafford on Saturday that there was a group of Manchester United fans determined to show they have a surplus of money and a skewed idea of the important things in life.
But every now and then, you pick up something new from that antiquated medium known as terrestrial television. Like the fact that a World Cup-winning rugby player has a habit of driving to the cinema just to buy popcorn.
The player in question was Ben Cohen ("I like cinema popcorn," he protested) and the admittance was on Big Star's Little Star – a new series of which started last week.
On the face of it, the programme, hosted by Stephen Mulhern, is a fluffy game show in the "kids say the darnedest things" vein, where celebrities guess which answers their offspring have given to potentially embarrassing questions.
Neil Ruddock, the former Liverpool, England and, er, Swindon player, was given the question of what he could never live without: bed and telly, beer and football or chicken and chips. The rotund former defender was genuinely flummoxed.
But beneath the chuckle-inducing revelations, such as Cohen's affinity for wigs or Ruddock's liking for Neil Diamond, the show is a mine of intel for muckrakers. Now that phone hacking is a no-no, all scurrilous reporters need to do to unearth celebrities' darkest secrets is to watch a couple of episodes of Big Star's Little Star.
Denise Lewis, the former heptathlete, hit the nail on the head halfway through the show – just after her son Ryan had revealed that mum "doesn't really like Dad" – when she exclaimed: "This is an exposé – anything you didn't want to come out..."
If only she had listened to herself, because immediately afterwards she admitted – on national TV – she regularly sneaks off to the toilet to play Candy Crush on her iPad. We'll never look at those Sydney 2000 highlights in the same way.
Possibly the most shocking revelation came from Ruddock, the eventual winner of the £15,000 charity prize, which he gave to Pilgrims Hospice in Kent.
He was introduced with his six-year-old daughter... whose name is Pebbles. "So, Razor," Mulhern ventured gingerly, "how did the name come about?" We inwardly hoped the Millwall-loving reality TV veteran had a cherished relative with the odd moniker, or that he would tell a heart-warming story about how the moment he found he was to be blessed with a child was while sitting on a South Coast beach watching the sun set. But, in truth, we feared the worst.
"I love The Flintstones," Ruddock said, disturbingly proudly. Amid the raucous laughter from the studio audience, many would have felt for the child – and society in general. And a desperate hack would have been rubbing his hands with glee.

Jacob Hester: It's going to be tough to replace Lo'. He's one of the greatest fullbacks of all time. I'm not going to try to do what he did. I'm a little bit different of a player than him, so I'm just going to come in and do the best that I can. I'll be playing two positions, so I'll definitely have to have my mind on the game at all times and really learn my playbook. It's tough to learn the plays as a rookie, but I don't have the luxury of waiting. I've got to learn two positions and learn them quickly.
MK: Much has been made about LaDainian Tomlinson mentoring you on the field. What exactly has he been helping you with and how much of a difference does it make?
JH: When you're a rookie, you're going to mess up, you're going to make mistakes and you're going to do stuff that's not quite right. Anytime I'm on the field and there's something I'm not quite understanding from the coaches, he'll explain it from a player's perspective and really break it down and say "here's what you need to do." He doesn't have to do that. Veterans can go about their business, but he's really taken the time to help all of us rookie running backs.
MK: What is it like being reunited on the Chargers with a former teammate in Buster Davis? Has he given you any advice about being a rookie or anything else?
FB Jacob Hester Alex Brandon/AP |
MK: Speaking of former teammates, what was it like playing with John David Booty in high school? Who do you think is going to have a more successful rookie year between the two of you?
JH: [Laughing] Oh, that's tough. He's a great quarterback, obviously, and it made my job as a running back easier when teams had to pay attention to him. We still remain really good friends. He was actually in my wedding. We remain very close and he's in a great situation, just like I am. We've both got a chance to play a lot of football if we do the right things and work hard. Hopefully, he can get a chance to get in there and show them what he's all about.
MK: As good friends, do you think there should be any sort of wager on the season between the two of you?
JH: [Laughing] I don't know, I haven't signed anything yet, so I don't have any money to wager.
MK: Every year around the time of the draft, draft experts like to talk about how certain prospects may not have tested especially well at the NFL Combine, but that they are just "football players." How do you feel about that sort of analysis, which has also already come from teammates such as Philip Rivers?
JH: The Combine doesn't really have anything to do with football. It's just something that you do, almost like a track meet. I did have some success at the Combine on my bench press and my shuttles, but that's not what makes you a football player. I'm not a flashy guy. I'm not going to wow you with this and that, but hopefully I can just come here and work hard and be a football player.
MK: Mike Nolan of the San Francisco 49ers was extremely high on you before the draft. What does it mean to you to hear from an NFL head coach that he "would be shocked if [you] were not a damn good player"?
JH: That meant a lot. He was my coach down there at the Senior Bowl and I got a chance to really get to know him. He's a great coach and an even better guy, and for him to say that, it's one of the biggest honors I've received. Hopefully, I can live up to that. He's a respected guy, so hopefully I can live up to his words. I haven't played a down yet, so I've got to keep working to get there.
MK: Is there anything that you want to say to all the Chargers fans out there or that you would want them to know about you?
JH: I just want them to know that I'm going to work my tail off and I won't disappoint them for trading up to get me.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month
Pros:light, simple. I don't have an Ipod shuffle, but I use this on my MPIO player. It works as I expected, replacing the $14 one that I would have ordered from the manufacturer's website.
Cons:None that I can think of. Not sure how long the gold(?) plating will last.
OtherThoughts:Seems durable enough. Not sure what each pin corresponds to, but it works with a non-ipod (my MPIO mp3 player)
Bottomline:unbeatable price in USD. Saved me at least $13. Very small and portable, better than other chargers that use other power sources.

How do you change the four icons at the bottom of the screen (by default, Phone, Contacts, Messaging, and Applications). I seem to recall only the middle two can be changed, but I can't remember how to do it.
Anthony, go into your applications. Then touch the cog symbol in the upper left corner. then you can drag whichever apps you want down to swap it out with those at the bottom. While you are in your applications, the lower right icon becomes a Home icon instead of the Applications icon. It changes back once you leave the application area.
Jacki, I've got a similar problem, I've lost messaging from the bottom row so I now only have 3 apps on the bottom row, phone, contacts & applications. When I tried to follow your instruction, to put messaging back, the applications Icon became a home icon but I do not have a cog symbol, or anything else in the top left hand corner. I'm using a Galaxy S with the latest firmware 2.2. Ron.
press you applications shortcut > look at the top when you slide your app drawer left/right, it will have the bubble numbers, and all the way to the left will be a gear icon, press it and move around your apps. OR, just go into apps, press menu softkey, and "edit".
