AT&T Wants you to Commit, Raises Price of 1-year Contracts
AT&T: Want a 1 Year Contract? Prices are Going Up! Because we said so!
Our buddies over at Android Central found this information out, and it's not looking good for tech-savvy Android fans. It looks like their 1-year contract price is going up an astonishing $150! That a pretty HUGE difference!!
The one year contract is a better way to get a new phone each year, and at one point it wasn't that bad of a deal to do. I realize with how competitive carriers are getting they want to keep you around as long as you can, but this ISN'T the way to do so. If you want to keep people around provide a quality service, excellent phone selection and competitive pricing. Just when AT&T started to show more Android love (coincidentally after they lost iPhone exclusivity) they go ahead and pull this one.
I'm sure most people just go with the two-year contracts, but since you're a reader of our site you've seen how fast these new great phones have been coming out. Is this the final straw for any of our readers? Personally this and their 4G slower than 3G phone stunt make me happy I left them back in '09 for the Original Droid!

The Energy Studies Institute (ESI) and the Centre for International Law (CIL), both of NUS, have secured a research grant from Singapore's National Research Foundation entitled "Policy and Law for Nuclear Safety and Security" as part of the Singapore Government's Nuclear Policy Research Programme. With funding of over two million Singapore Dollars, the three-year Nuclear Governance Project, which began on 4 January 2016, is staffed by a multidisciplinary academic team carrying out research in the governance of nuclear safety, security and civil liability for nuclear damage.
The project will focus on two main research areas: international, regional and national legislative and regulatory frameworks for nuclear safety and security; and nuclear liability.
Associate Professor Robert Beckman, Head of Ocean Law and Policy, CIL, is the co-principal investigator for the project, and Dr Philip Andrews-Speed, Senior Principal Fellow, ESI, is the principal investigator.

He's completely delusional.
After Scalia and Senior discussed heaven and hell (he believes in them; she doesn't), the justice said in a stage whisper, "I even believe in the devil."
"You do?" Senior replied.
"Of course! Yeah, he's a real person. Hey, come on, that's standard Catholic doctrine! Every Catholic believes that," Scalia said.
Senior asked Scalia if he's seen evidence of Satan's work recently.
"You know, it is curious," Scalia answered. "In the Gospels, the devil is doing all sorts of things. He's making pigs run off cliffs, he's possessing people and whatnot. And that doesn't happen very much anymore. ... It's because he's smart."
Scalia said the Devil has gotten "wilier" and convinced people that he and God don't exist. The justice added that he doesn't think that atheists are Satan's minions, but that disbelief in God "certainly favors the devil's desires."Senior asked if it's "frightening" to believe in the devil, which seemed to annoy Scalia.
"You're looking at me as though I'm weird," he answered. "My God! Are you so out of touch with most of America, most of which believes in the devil? I mean, Jesus Christ believed in the devil! It's in the Gospels! You travel in circles that are so, so removed from mainstream America that you are appalled that anybody would believe in the devil! Most of mankind has believed in the devil, for all of history. Many more intelligent people than you or me have believed in the devil."
Here's the full conversation if anyone is interested to read it.
Holy fuck. That's nuts.
Also, the first link is broken. There's a space in it.
It blows my mind whenever I hear that there are adults who fully believe all that bullshit - I can't even fathom someone of Scalia's credentials clinging to such malarkey.

Christmas Candy
23 comments :
Wow that candy looks absolutely amazing! I can't believe you were able to keep all the chocolate in the squares for the most part; if I was doing that, there would be chocolate EVERYWHERE!
I'm your newest follower from the bloggy buddies blog hop. Please feel free to come by my blog and if you like, follow me back. :o)
For Love of Cupcakesso funny. I just posted my Holiday Peppermint Bark recipe which is very similar to this one. I love the idea of placing the chocolate in that pan with squares - makes it very easy to take the chocolate out when it's done. My recipe calls for a 9x9 pan to harden the chocolate. Once it's cold, it's very difficult to break apart. However, it is nice looking to have many jagged little pieces.

Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that.

OTTAWA - Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz is hoping some face time with Chinese officials will help boost Canadian agriculture exports to that burgeoning market.
Ritz is to lead a delegation of more than 30 agricultural groups and officials from four provinces to China next week.
They'll be talking about expanding trade access and boosting Canadian agricultural products.
China accounted for more than $5.6 billion in Canadian agri-food and seafood exports in 2013.
Ritz says there's quite a bit more to do because that figure only represents five per cent of China's imports and he believes the number can be doubled or tripled.
For example, the minister hopes to soon see meat shipments expanded to allow bone-in products from animals under 30 months.
He will also be delivering a keynote address to delegates of the World Meat Congress in Beijing.

This friendly little museum is located in Vegesack, a twenty minute train ride from Haupbahnhof (the fare is included for holders of the Bremen Erlebnis card). It is very child-friendly but visitors of any age will enjoy pressing the buttons or turning the wheels on the interactive displays spaced out around this warehouse. Highly recommended.

Even Richard Jeffrey, of Charterhouse Tilney, who has been advocating 4,000 for some time, reckons the stock market is now looking fully valued.
He says: "While this does not rule out further progress this year, we believe that higher ground will be hard to defend."
And a raft of leading strategists take the view the market has peaked and will fall in the remaining months of the year.
They are either prepared to ignore the possibility of the traditional Christmas rally or foresee a sharp decline and then festive joy from a lower base.
Last week, at a time Footsie was seriously challenging 4,000, NatWest Securities pointedly reiterated its 3,700 year-end forecast and said clients should sell into strength.
ABN Amro Hoare Govett is also on 3,700 and UBS is shooting for 3,800. Goldman Sachs expects Footsie to fluctuate in a 3,650-3,950 range for the rest of the year.
Such views may bring some comfort to arch bear, Tony Dye, fund manager at PDFM. He has already unsettled his clients by banking on cash rather than equities and missed the bull market.
But to make the Dye philosophy plausible and - more importantly - rewarding, a dramatic retreat is necessary. Few experts are prepared to talk in terms of a pending crash; they prefer "correction" which could mean a modest Footsie retreat.
David Schwartz, an expert follower of the market who is based at Stroud in Gloucestershire, seems in tune with the policy of the PDFM investment chief.
In his latest newsletter he again warns that the next big share move is down.
"Many long-running historical trends continue to send a very clear message - that the UK stock market is at or very close to its high point for a bull market," he declares.
But, hedging his bets, he adds: "As most investors know, history also teaches that the market doesn't always play by our rules.
"The fact the odds favour a down-move does not guarantee one will occur... the favourite does not always win at the races."
One of the influences Mr Schwartz cites for his bearishness is the "five- quarters rule". The market looks like completing the remarkable achievement of moving higher for a record nine quarters in a row.
This century there have been only 12 gains which ran for five quarters or more.
Mr Schwartz observes: "As far as this indicator is concerned, history is signalling very low odds of further rises occurring in the near future." After each of the 12 gains, shares disappointed for at least the next nine months.
He points to the rally which followed Britain's ERM retreat four years ago. When, after five heady quarters, shares ran out of steam, prices fell sharply for a time and then experienced a weak nine-month run.
Should blue chips give ground, is there a case for switching into second liners?
The FT-SE 250 index, covering the next batch of shares after the 100 Footsie stocks, had a splendid run in the first four months of the year, peaking in April. Since then it has not matched its peer index and is still 140 points from its high.
At Panmure Gordon, strategist Ian Williams is pondering whether the so- called mid caps can fight back.
As the economy grows it should be positive for companies with high domestic exposure - and there are proportionately more outside Footsie.
So the move back to second liners, he concludes, could be the story for next year.
Allan Collins at stockbroker Redmayne Bentley is inclined to agree. "With profits now being taken in the leaders, it may be that attention will switch to the mid-cap and take the 250 index up to challenge the peak," he says.
The interim profits season has, so far, not caused any anxiety. This week's reporting list is rather less crowded than in the past two weeks.
Guinness holds centre stage. There are worries about the strength of the spirits market. Michelle Proud and Graeme Eadie at NatWest point out that for the past six half-year periods Guinness has showed a decline in spirit profits.
But they add: "We believe we are now close to the point where we will see a change of direction, with spirits profits turning back upwards."
They do not expect any change this week but suspect an upturn could occur in the second six months and feel "there is now potential to be surprised on the upside".
An advance "will trigger a spell of share price outperformance much needed for a stock which has underperformed the market by 20 per cent over the past year".
Profits are expected to emerge around pounds 350m, a rather sober 3 per cent advance. The dividend, however, should be lifted by, say, 10 per cent to 4.6p.
Bernard Arnault, the French tycoon with more than 20 per cent of Guinness, is, no doubt, not the only shareholder dismayed by Guinness' share performance.
He has suffered the additional hit of adverse foreign exchange movements. There is a belief he would like to end, or at least dramatically curtail, his Guinness share involvement and, if NatWest is on the right lines, he could have an opportunity to reduce his interest.
He has already placed one batch of shares and could be looking in the short term to cut his stake to at least 15 per cent to help finance his other business ambitions.
Others reporting this week include Inchcape, where around pounds 80m at the half-way stage against pounds 83.3m is expected, and housebuilder Barratt Developments, with year's profits of pounds 50.5m (pounds 47.1m).

i really like everything about this place. The decor and setup and the desserts. My fav is the tiramisu sphere which is unlike anything i've ever tried! Amazing! This place is a hidden gem and in recent times i think the low volumes has seen levels drop somewhat however i still keep coming back. These guys need to be given a chance.
So, i used to go to this place... then after months, one day i decided to get a hot chocolate instead of my regular coffee. The staff there 100% refused to stamp my coffee card. Considering I actually paid even more than the already expensive price for a coffee to get the hot chocolate, i thought it was really petty. I will say though, they do nice croissants

The hydrological cycle is driven by a complex, interrelated ensemble of dynamic natural processes (climate forcings). The Earth's tilt and rotation around the Sun are among the primary drivers of seasonal variations in precipitation and water availability. Atmospheric and oceanic circulation patterns and their interactions are equally important drivers of weather, climate and the hydrological cycle.
Humans have a significant impact on some components of the cycle, in which some interventions are deliberate, such as modifying runoff through storage and inter-basin transfers. The former impacts floods and droughts to ensure water is available when needed and damage is averted or minimized when there is an excess; the latter brings water to where it is needed. Other interventions such as changing land surfaces for urban settlements or agriculture can severely alter the hydrological cycle through changes in infiltration, runoff and evapotranspiration rates.
The state of water resources is one of constant change, resulting from the natural variability of the earth's climate system and the anthropogenic alteration of that system and the land surface through which the hydrological cycle is modulated. Specific changes to water resources and the hydrological cycle include:
- Changes in mean surface flows due to natural climate variability at interannual and multidecadal time scales and climate change
- Increased flood potential due to climate change
- Increased losses due to temperature increase
- Changes in the seasonality (or timing) of flows, especially in snow melt basins
- Changes in flows from glaciers due to their retreat
- Decreasing snow and permafrost
- Groundwater depletion – losing the buffer against rainfall variability
- Changes in soil moisture
The state of water resources is also influenced by withdrawals to meet socio-economic demands. These are in turn influenced by population growth, economic development and dietary changes, as well as by control measures exerted to protect settlements in flood plains and drought-prone regions. These sources of change and the interactions between them create a new level of uncertainty associated with the use and availability of water resources – in addition to existing uncertainties related to the earth's climate system and hydrological cycle. As a result, it is no longer possible to assume that the future hydrological record will follow the course of the historical record.
Hydrological cycle in Namibia
Namibia is the most arid African country south of the Sahara with low and varied precipitation, from a maximum of ± 650mm in the north east to less than 50mm per year along the coast. It is estimated that only 2% of the rainfall ends up as surface run-off and a mere 1% becomes available to recharge groundwater. The balance of 97% is lost through evaporation (83%) and evapotranspiration (14%).
Namibia's rainfall is skewed, with the northeast getting more than the west and south-western parts of the country. Namibia's international boundaries, both northern and southern are marked by the Kunene River in the northwest, the Okavango River in the central north and the Zambezi and Kwando Rivers in the northeast. The Orange River marks Namibia's southern border. It is only in these rivers that perennial surface water resources are found. These rivers are all shared with neighboring riparian states with an obligation for them to be managed and used in terms of the relevant rules of International Water Law.

I just got a suitcase from a second hand store and I cannot remove the nasty smell. It smells like old vomit or moldy milk. How can I get rid of the smell?
By booboo kitty from Jacksonville, FL
Our old house had wood heat, everything always smelled like smoke including our luggage, which then got put in storage when we moved to a smaller house. I just took it out for a vacation, sprayed the inside with a vinegar/water mix and closed them back up for two days. They smelled fine for us to pack for this trip and our clothes were fine on arrival.
Definitely. I use FRIDGE IT activated carbon odor absorbers in my luggage and storage bins. They are unscented and work great to eliminate odors. I just put one or two in each suitcase to keep "old" smell out. Works like a charm. I get these right on line at www.innofresh.com. Easy to order and they ship really quickly.
I have been using a product called BioWorld Odor Neutralizer that has worked well for all odors. It is very strong and I haven't found an odor that it hasn't taken care of yet!
I've heard clay kitty litter absorbs odors really well so it might be worth the try to get a small bag of it, dump the litter in, close it up for a few days and then dump it out. Of course, wipe the inside of the case well to remove the litter dust. If it still needs a bit of freshener, by all means use Febreeze but don't close the lid until the Febreeze has completely dried.
I would wash this suitcase out first, and then try all the different odor absorbers. It may be that something has been spilled in the inside in the past, and never suitably and thoroughly cleaned. Leaving it in the sun to air out after washing would be good too.
Things don't get a sour milk or vomit smell from being stored in musty garages or basements. Something has been spilled in that suitcase to make that smell.
Thanks. I will try both and we will see if that works. I am expected to be in Tampa next week, and I hope I can get the smell out again. Thanks for your support.
Adding a post about a suitcase situation that I had completely forgotten about. A couple decades ago I lent a leather duffle type suitcase to an employee for her and significant others vacation. When it was given back it reeked :-o Turns out that they had a bit too much fun drinking and instead of putting their dirty clothes (with vomit on them) in a plastic bag they just put them loose in my bag :-o I washed the inside as well as could with a rag soaked in vinegar and that made me feel like the germs were at least gone but it still stunk :-( Since it was a soft duffle I turned it inside out, put it in the dryer with a whole box of dryer sheets on low heat for awhile and, blessedly, that did the trick. Needless to say, I never loan out my suitcases anymore ;-)
How do you get rid of the musty smell in luggage?
By Sondra from FL
Put a few pieces of chalk or charcoal (not the kind with lighter fluid in it) in the case, close it up for a few days, the odor should be gone after. You can also try a piece of potato or apple. I've never used those but I have heard it works.
Good luck!
Try putting Fabric Softner sheets in suitcase and closing it up for a few days.
Try soaking a couple of crumpled up pieces of newspaper in regular vinegar, put them inside and close it up for a few days. It worked for me. Good luck. Regards, lori
Other things that are good for odors are baking soda and coffee grounds. Set a dish of one or the other, or both inside the suitcase and leave for a few days. You might also try one of those silica gel packs that comes with purchased items to remove moisture.
I just handled the problem with musical instrument cases, which are specialized luggage. Leave them open and spray daily with a few drops of tree tea oil in warm water. It's taken two weeks or so but the rank mold odor is almost completely gone.
I like Lysol Disinfectant in the brown bottle to help in removing stale odor. Just put in with water and wipe the interior well. Leave open to dry and if the odor is still pungent, then sprinkle some baking soda in it and close it up for a few days. Check it again and if the odor is still prevalent, then seek a professional.
You can line the bottom and sides of the luggage with a large cloth and place charcoal (non-fluid that lights it kind) in it. Close it up and leave it be for a few days and the charcoal will soak up the odor. The best part is that you can still use the charcoal on the barby. ;-)
Open one end of a box of antibacterial soap, like Irish Spring or Dial. Leave the hard soap in the box and put it in the suitcase and close it up for a week or so. This works well. To keep the suitcase smelling fresh, just put the open ended box with the soap in it back in your suitcase after your trip.
I have a suitcase that was down in the basement and now it smells like fuel oil inside and out. I have sprayed the suitcase with Glade Tough Odor Solutions about 15 times and it didnt work. Please help me; I don't want to have to throw it out it's like 6 months old.
My travel mug, filled with flavored coffee, opened in the outside pocket of my new nylon luggage. How can I remove the flavored coffee smell?
By Debra K.
Every time we go to visit our kids, we pack our suitcase and when we get there our clothes have musty smell. The suitcase and clothes don't have the odor when being packed.

Finding a cool and truly unique costume for an occasion can be a difficult process. Whether you need one for Halloween or just a themed party, originality seems to have been lost and you often find many guests wearing similar getups that blend in. Showing that you are the life of the party begins with standing out from a crowd, so you will need to come up with some great, obscure ideas for an ideal costume.

Home Alone characters
Movie characters are usually done to death but there are some lesser-considered character costumes that are just as recognisable yet cost-effective to recreate. 1990 family caper, Home Alone, is one of the films with a number of memorable characters to choose from.
Harry and Marv – the Wet Bandits – for instance are the film's bumbling antagonists. Both characters wear worn, tattered winter gear including trench coats, scarves and mittens. Harry covers his head with a woolly hat whilst a curly wig will be necessary for Marv's trademark bonce.
Alternatively, you may choose to be Marley the "South Bend Shovel Slayer" using a black trench coat, big black boots, a snow shovel and a metal rubbish can full of fake salt fashioned from ground-up Styrofoam.
Split personalities
Show that you have two opposing sides to your personality simply by splitting two outfits directly down the middle. Make sure you know beforehand what both themes are going to be and have each separate costume set out. Useful themes can range between "evil and good," "ying and yang" or "comedy and tragedy" dichotomies. Cut the costumes in half and sew a half of each together, then once you have completed your attire, set about making your hair and face match the separate themes respectively using some makeup and prosthetics.
Edgar Allan Poe
The American literary great has this iconic melancholic image about him. The key here is that everything needs to be black – black suit, black hair, darkened circles around the eyes using eyeliner and a thin black moustache. A cravat, a large book in hand and maybe even a stuffed raven attached to the shoulder will accentuate the look.
Sly photographer
This is a simple costume to construct that parodies paparazzi photographers who take their jobs a little too far. Again, you will have to dress predominantly in a dark colour like black, attach a few leaves and branches to yourself for camouflage and have a similarly-disguised, high-end camera in your possession.
Board games
There are many board games out there to use as an obscure costume idea such as Chess, Othello, Twister or even Operation. Outlets sell costume adaptations of the boards from these games that can be thrown on like overalls. The added accessories such as pieces for checkers or the Twister spin board can be made or borrowed from the board game if you have it at home. An Operation suit can be fully fashioned by you. All you will need is a skin-tone attire from head to toe, some coloured felt and wool to make three-dimensional body parts and medical tools.

One thing I notice while standing under the squirrel-laden trees is how many acorns and leaves are scattered about on the lawn. So, when I read that this week's 'Illustration Friday' challenge was the word "Scattered," I decided to do something with squirrels and scattered acorns.
I started out by doing some sketches based on a couple of the squirrel photos I had taken. At this point I wasn't sure in what direction I was going to take this image, but I kept sketching. As I worked on it, I decided I would do an image of a mother squirrel who has discovered that her son has scattered their acorns all over the floor of their den.
I finally decided I would put clothes on the squirrels. You can see at this stage I also decided to change the position of the mother squirrel's arms.
I thought the female squirrel looked too young and not at all like the mother of the other one, so in order to age her, I gave her a few extra pounds and put her in an apron.
At this point, it was just a matter of shading things in. I created the image entirely in Corel Painter 12. For the most part I used the 'Real 2B Pencil' brush, but for the background, which I created on a separate layer, I used the 'Real Sumi-e Wet Brush.'
I decided that I wanted to make the mother appear to be backlit so I added another layer and created some darker shading. Once I had the shading the way I wanted it, I collapsed the various layers I had created so that it would be easier to do blending and smoothing out of the overall image.

Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.
Describes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
The purpose of this study is to assess how well glembatumumab vedotin works in treating patients who have melanoma in the middle layer of the wall of the eye (uveal) that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or has returned at or near the same place after a period of time during which the cancer could not be detected (locally recurrent). Glembatumumab vedotin may shrink the tumor by binding to tumor cells and delivering tumor-killing substances to them.
