SAN FRANCISCO -- About to jump on a conference call with Ryan Howard's agent, Casey Close, but for now, here are some of the most interesting answers from the press conference that just ended with Howard and general manager Ruben Amaro Jr.
Why now?
AMARO: We just felt it was good timing for us. We felt like No. 1, he's one of the elite offensive players in the game. We could have waited another year-and-a-half or so and dealt with it later on, but the fact of the matter is we decided that he's that important to our organization and our future. We decided to go ahead and work something out with Casey and it worked quite well.
Did the market of other first basemen (Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder, Adrian Gonzalez) play a factor in doing it now?
HOWARD: I know that all of us were going to be free agents around the same time. I think the decision was based more for myself. It wasn't trying to live off what Albert might get or what Prince might get. It was look after myself in this situation. I wanted to stay in Philadelphia. I've had fun here. The fans have been great. The organization has been great. I'm glad we were able to reach the agreement and now I can focus on going out there and just playing ball.
You could be 37 when it ends. What's the risk involved?
AMARO: I think that we're blessed as an organization with guys who take a lot of pride in their craft and what they do. Ryan is one of those guys. Ryan has clearly dedicated himself to being a very complete player. He's worked on his defense. He's worked on a variety of ways to make himself a more complete player. He has a special attribute with his power and run-production that not many in the history of the game have been able to accomplish. Yet he continues to try and work to be a better player. When we commit these kind of dollars and these kind of years to a player, it's not just because of what he does on the field as an athlete but it's also as a person. To me and to our organization and to our fans, he's not just a special athlete, he's a special person. And that makes a difference.
HOWARD: For me, the production and whatnot, it's just a matter of going out there and continuing to do what I've been doing over the last couple of years, which is trying to stay ahead in my training. Just making sure my body is staying good and staying healthy is the most important thing. I feel that what I've been doing over the last couple of years, I feel pretty confident that down the road, I'll be right where I want to be and doing the same thing.
Do you still have payroll flexibility with this deal?
AMARO: We tried to design the contract in a way that we can. Our goal remains the same: put a championship team on the field year in and year out. We feel the way the we structured the contract gives us a little bit of flexibility to be able to do that as far as Jayson [Werth] and Jimmy [Rollins] and other that will be become free agents in the not so distant future. Natually we'd like to keep all those guys. We'll go on a case by case basis … Hopefully we can keep this group together, but we'll see how the pieces of the puzzle are fitting for us.
Do you see this as a market-setting deal?
AMARO: Ryan earned this contract with what he's done. Very few can say they've done what he's done and in some categories there's none. ... He kind of set the market for himself. … We don't view it as a market setting deal. We think it's an equitable deal for both sides and it's something he deserves. There's always risk when you're doing guaranteed deals but with what Ryan has done and what we think he'll do in the future I think it's a good risk.

WTP/Service Interface and Data Types Editors/Proposal
The Service Interface & Data Types Editors project is a proposed open source project under the WTP Incubator project.
This proposal is in the Project Proposal Phase (as defined in the Eclipse Development Process) and is written to declare its intent and scope. We solicit additional participation and input from the Eclipse community. Please send all feedback to the Webtools incubator forum.
The Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) 1.1[1] has been used world-wide for the definition of Web Services ensuring well-defined, system-independent and interoperable contracts for reliable communication among different structures and organizations thus being the foundation of many industry specific solutions in the area of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Business Process Management (BPM). The primary type-system, utilized for definition of data types within a WS interface as part of an operation signature, has been the XML Schema Definition (XSD) [2][3]. As such the XML-based WSDL 1.1 and XSD artifacts are integral to the development of scalable business (A2C, B2B, etc.) solutions in distributed environment. In addition the XSD has become a prominent way to describe and validate XML documents in many use-cases, which are outside the scope of the Web Service provisioning one, e.g. data-base schema description, arbitrary XML documents validation, etc.
Yet the complexity of the aforementioned XML dialects imply considerable difficulties and a steep learning curve when it comes to the definition / modification of WSDL 1.1 and XSD models. The currently existing tooling in the Eclipse WTP project, although full-featured in terms of specification-support, does not do much to hide this complexity and has been considered to be too technology-centric by the average SOA developer. In addition it seems to be distributed in several editors and views, which to some extent makes the navigation a bit harder.
The feedback of a number of end-users, experienced in the development and maintenance of SOA/BPM-based applications, points out that they need a compact UI modeling toolset, which only gives them access to the most common entities defined in the WSDL and XSD specifications and makes it easier for them to quickly create and modify Web Service contracts and XSD artifacts. As part of it the early error detection and resolution as well as the rich refactoring capabilities seem to play a quite important role in the development process.
The Service Interface and Data Types editors are Eclipse form-based editors, which fully satisfy these requirements, providing easy-to-use, unified user interface and facilitating developers with quick and efficient application development in all WS and XSD related areas. In order not to restrict WSDL and XSD experts to the visual-editing capabilities of the tooling they also provide feature rich text-editing capabilities based on the WTP Structured Text Editor.
The project is based on the Graphiti, which is also a proposed open source project. Graphiti is a framework based on GEF and EMF for creating graphical diagram tools. The JPA editor project provides a graphical diagram editor as part of the Eclipse IDE, which allows the user to create, view and edit her business model as part of Java EE application project.
Providing the JPA Diagram editor as integral part of the JPA Dali tools is in the scope of this proposal.
Extending the existing Dali API is out of the scope of this proposal. The editor will use the Dali API, but it won't change and/or extend it.
This editor is targeted to Java EE (and particularly JPA) developers who use Eclipse and provides them with a graphical tool for visualizing and manipulating Java EE application business model.
Service Interface Editor
- Service Interface modification
- Define namespace
- Define operation
- Define input/output/fault messages
- Select type for input/output/fault
- Documentation field
- Embedded Data Types Editor for advanced Data Types manipulation of inline types
- Source tab (WSDL 1.1 source modification)
- In-place / document validations
- WS Interoperability
- Refactoring
- Re-use of externally defined data types
Data Type Editor
- Types creation, modification, inheritance
- Simple & structure
- Elements
- Attributes
- Define type name & namespace
- Define type cardinality and constraints
- Documentation
- Source tab (XSD source modification)
- In-place / document validations
- Refactoring (Renaming of all possible entities, Copy & Paste of all possible schema entities, etc.)
- Re-use of externally defined data types
The editor will avoid as much as possible opening of dialogs and wizards. The idea is to use simple operations as 'drag-and-drop' and 'in-diagram' direct editing (of text). The palette on the right side will allow the user to create entities and relations between them with 'drag-and-drop' and 'point-and-click'. The user will be allowed to create from the palette new entities which inherit java.lang.Object, mapped superclasses or some other entities. The user will be able also to create XML defined entities. The JPA entities will be presented by rectangles and attributes will appear in these rectangles with their names and icons. On mouse over context buttons will appear providing basic operations. The operations which are not available through context buttons will be available through context menus.
The editor will show validation markers and messages. The attributes will be separated in different compartments and any different entity or compartment can be collapsed or expanded.
The diagram will be persisted in a file in xml format.
A certain preference page on the global level and a property page on project level will allow the user to set some specific JPA diagram options.
The JPA details view will be integrated with the JPA Diagram editor. It would be possible to open it through a context menu command and it will reflect the selected diagram objects – entities or attributes.
A miniature view will be available for opening through a context menu command and will allow the user to see a miniaturized image of the diagram.
It will be possible to create one (or more) diagrams per JPA enabled project. It will also be possible to create diagrams which unite entities from more than one project.
Since it's possible for a diagram to become very big the user will be allowed to define logical areas in a diagram. It will be possible for the user easily to visualize/hide only those parts of a diagram which she/he wants to.
The diagram will visualize the merged Java annotated classes/XML model and will allow the user transparently to modify the both.

As discussed above, PLOI is excepted from the adverse application of section 212.3. PLOI is also excepted from the adverse application of subsection 15(2) of the Act, although the indebtedness that qualifies for the PLOI exception from subsection 15(2) is different than that which is excepted from section 212.3.
Subsection 15(2) and paragraph 214(3)(a) of the Act generally deem (subject to various exceptions) indebtedness 12 owing to a Canadian resident corporation ( "Canco" ) or a resident corporation not dealing at arm's length with Canco by a non-resident shareholder of Canco or a non-resident person not dealing at arm's length with a shareholder of Canco to be a shareholder benefit subject to Canadian withholding tax if not repaid within one year after the end of the taxation year of the relevant Canadian creditor in which the indebtedness arose. 13 Indebtedness that is PLOI is excluded from the application of this rule under subsection 15(2.11) of the Act."Canco"
Back to top
The PLOI exception in subsection 15(2.11) applies if all of the following conditions are met:"NR Debtorco" Qualifying Canadian Partnership PLOI Elections
The exception from subsection 15(2) for PLOI is not automatic. Where the amount is owed to a CRIC, the CRIC and the non-resident corporation that controls the CRIC must jointly elect under subparagraph 15(2.11)(d)(i) of the Act for debt to be PLOI. If the amount is owed to a Qualifying Canadian Partnership, all of the members of the partnership and the non-resident corporation that controls the CRIC must jointly elect under subparagraph 15(2.11)(d)(ii) for debt to be PLOI.
The PLOI Elections must be made by the non-resident corporation that controls the CRIC even if the amount is owed by another NR Debtco in the group or by a partnership of which another non-resident corporation in the group is a member.
The PLOI Elections are made on a debt by debt basis for qualifying debtor/creditor relationships. It does not appear that the election can be revoked.
The PLOI election under subparagraph 15(2.11)(d)(i) must be filed with the CRA on or before the income tax return filing-due date of the CRIC for the CRIC's taxation year in which the post-March 28, 2012 debt becomes owing to the CRIC by the relevant NR Debtco. The subparagraph 15(2.11)(d)(ii) PLOI election must be filed with the CRA on or before the income tax return filing-due date of the CRIC for the CRIC's taxation year in which the fiscal period of the Qualifying Canadian Partnership ends and during which the post-March 28, 2012 debt becomes owing by the relevant NR Debtco. Late filing of the election is permitted within three years after the filing deadline if a late filing penalty is paid. 14
Moss employs a unique manufacturing process and specialized equipment to bend the Construct framing systems to execute non-linear designs and angled corners. Construct 120 80 are significantly stronger than system groove locks and snap frames for fabricating large scale tension fabric structures.
Because cladding extrusion is only added where it is needed, the rest of the surfaces are left smooth, eliminating the need to hide unused system grooves.
Building 20', 30' and 40' spans without vertical support unleashes creativity, maximizes space utilization and minimizes material requirements - Construct 120 can span 30' (at minimal load) without vertical support, and when used in an I-beam style double-beam spreader configuration can span up to 40' without vertical support (minimal load). Construct 80 can span 20' (at minimal load) without vertical support, and when used in an I-beam style double-beam spreader configuration can span up to 30' without vertical support (minimal load). Less drayage and faster installation mean more budget for designing the ideal exhibit. Cost savings at future shows are rapidly realized.
Eliminate costly rigging labor and potential delays while highlighting your company with impactful branding. The Construct System is ideal for showcasing branding with 10' high seamless graphics and no need for rigging.
Proprietary Pull-Tite locks deliver amazingly fast, secure and simple frame assembly. The best part: no small, loose parts.
plug-and-play Illuminedge LED lightbox technology is integrated to impressively backlight fabric panels. Available integrated lighting solutions also include the LED Color Wash Wall, dynamic and programmable with 4,000+ colors. Each eye-catching lighting solution features plug-and-play efficiency and pre-run hidden wiring that saves on site electrical costs.
Several design differentiators immediately set the Construct System apart. Along with its ability to span great distances without support, it is the fastest-installing channel-less extrusion with modern, clean and elegant lines. It is also the largest bendable extrusion available, creating organic curves resulting in a sleek, artfully attractive booth with superior functionality. This product is covered by one ore more pending U.S. Patent(s) owned by Moss Holding Company.
Construct 120™ is now available for custom outdoor structures. All outdoor structures are certified by a structural engineer. Create outdoor temporary and portable 3D structures for branding and wayfinding including arches up to 20 ft. high.
The Construct System is perfect for creating modern, large-scale custom structures, clad however you like with fabric and a variety of available materials. It is also available with standard Rental Post Beam sizes to build large-scale with a design-centric rental solution. Learn more about all of our rental products and

Williamsburg, Virginia
By Michael Olmert
Six is the number of creation, and perfection, symbolizing divine power, majesty, wisdom, love, mercy, and justice. -George Ferguson , Signs and Symbols in Christian Art, 1954.
The mystical number six and its perfect expression, the hexagon, long have stirred men's souls, and, in such places as Colonial Williamsburg, are still capable of making us think. We may not particularly want to consider the implications of social or personal morality with which the shape is freighted, but the architectural and structural hexagons put up in the eighteenth century persist-are great brooding sentinels, bearing messages from deep antiquity.
Not that the human figures in the eighteenth-century landscape were better than we are, not at all. It is just that they were more adept at reading the iconography of religion and virtue that once suffused the secular world. Most of us have lost that knack. Still, it is instructive to try to take on some of their cultural values and instincts, to view Williamsburg as they must have.
Perhaps no example of a hexagon in Colonial Williamsburg's Historic area is more prominent than the cupola of the Capitol at the eastern extreme of Duke of Gloucester Street.
In the matter of hexagons, there are five important versions in the Historic Area. Foremost is the bagnio, or bathhouse, in the Governor's Palace kitchen yard. Then come the three lanterns atop the Capitol, the Palace, and the Wren Building. The fifth hexagon is one that is most conspicuous by its absence-the hexagonal pulpit inside Bruton Parish Church. Though the modern one there now is square, I'm as certain as I can be the original pulpit was six-sided. Most early pulpits in England are. In Virginia, every surviving eighteenth-century pulpit is hexagonal.
That One and Two and Three which ever lives, and ever reigns in Three and Two and One, uncircumscribed, and circumscribing all things. . . . - Dante Alighieri , Paradiso, 1320 .
That's the thing about the number six, it is perfectible. Consider the combinations: its sum is the product of its factors-excluding itself-one times two times three. Moreover, one-sixth of it, the number one, plus one-third of it, the number two, equal one-half of it, the number three. If you resolve the numeral into six dots and pile them up, with one on top, two dots centered under that, and the final three under that, you get a triangle:
It's the divine triangle, just as Dante imagines it: the Father, followed by the Father and the Son, and finally by the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. It's also the triangle as a universal symbol of eternity-look at a dollar bill. Plainly, there was something mysterious and wise about the number six.

"America's Funniest Home Videos" drew nearly 33 million viewers when it debuted in 1989.
Its amateur footage of adults, children and pets captured in pratfalls made the show ABC's longest-running prime-time entertainment program, and created the concept of "user-generated videos" long before the advent of YouTube.
But after 24 years on the air, "AFV's" audience has dwindled to 6.3 million viewers per episode, according to Nielsen.
So Executive Producer Vin Di Bona and former ABC executive Bruce Gersh have created an independent production company, FishBowl WorldWide Media, to look for new ways to mine "AFV's" massive video library. FishBowl has digitized the 1 million home videos submitted to "AFV" over the last quarter-century, categorized them and deposited them into a digital media warehouse so the clips can be recycled and reused online, and in other ways.
Some of the "Funniest" staples — those adorable pet and baby videos, and the spectacular trips, falls and collisions that Internet denizens now describe as "fail" videos — are reaching new screens and audiences.
These homegrown video shorts now form the foundation of five YouTube channels: Petsami, Toddletale, CuteWinFail, Lindo Victoria Fracaso and AFV, which together have drawn nearly 78 million online views. That doesn't include the viewership from fan channels such as Best AFV on U2be, which posts clips of home improvement projects gone awry, animal mishaps and "flat-out strange behavior," and which has logged more than 63 million views. All told, these slapstick snippets have garnered about 130 million views on YouTube.
"It's kind of cool and interesting that this brand, well before YouTube was born, was steeped in this fan-sharing of content and moments," said Malik Ducard, YouTube's director of content partnerships. "It's appropriate that we should be really working together today."
FishBowl has partnered with the digital media company Fullscreen to help identify people using "AFV's" clips on YouTube without permission and to help capitalize on these videos. Fullscreen also plans to draw from its pool of emerging YouTube talent — which includes filmmaker Devin Super Tramp and Andre Meadows, star of "Black Nerd Comedy" — to produce original programming that incorporates "America's Funniest Home Videos" clips.
"I think the potential is pretty massive," said Fullscreen Founder and Chief Executive George Strompolos.
FishBowl also created a video licensing library to make its vast catalog of amateur videos available for use in feature films, Internet marketing, national TV campaigns and even live events and trade shows. Gersh described the business as the home-video equivalent of Getty Images, which sells stock images and footage.
"It's the first time that we've actually put it out on a platform, as opposed to the way it's been handled over the course of time — which is 'Brand X' needs a clip for their baby commercial, they call us, we then license that clip," Gersh said.
Gersh and Di Bona met at ABC, where Gersh was a senior vice president responsible for identifying and managing digital business opportunities for network shows and those produced by ABC Studios. "America's Funniest Home Videos" was a centerpiece of ABC.com's early Web strategy, Gersh said.
The duo launched FishBowl in January 2010 and assembled a creative team with experience developing scripted and reality programs. FishBowl has sold several original series for the Web and television, including the digital series "Ultimate Proposal" to Yahoo; a VH-1 reality show about unconventional couples, called "I'm Married to a ..."; and "Tone It Up," for Bravo, featuring best friends and roommates who become the unlikely "it girls" of fitness after launching their own popular YouTube channel.
At the same time, FishBowl began the process of exploiting "America's Funniest Home Videos'" massive catalog of videos — which grows by 3,500 new submissions a week — for the Web. It modernized the process for obtaining the rights to use the material in fresh ways, reshaped the clips to make them shorter (and appeal to the abbreviated digital appetite) and re-categorized them.
"The show was looking for specific funny things," Gersh said. "Whereas in digital ... we're now able to tap into it for things that would never be part of any of these TV shows."
John Saade, ABC's executive vice president of alternative series, said distributing some "America's Funniest Home Videos" clips online will doubtless "give a little bit of a tail wind to the show." However, the secret to the show's enduring success is its careful curation and the way one video is juxtaposed against the next, to heighten the humor.
In the show's earliest days, Di Bona's television production company would receive 30 mail bags a day filled with VHS tapes. Now, 40% of the submissions come via mobile upload from smartphones.
But the mechanics of producing "America's Funniest Home Videos" hasn't changed much since its debut.
Screeners watch every clip in its entirety, rate it on a scale of 1 to 10 and describe the funny bits in meticulous detail on an index card. Every card is categorized, then grouped with similar video segments. These paper-clipped piles of homegrown humor are stuck with pushpins into a gray corkboard wall that rings three sides of the writers room, and gradually form the comedic spine of individual shows.
After the reel of clips is finalized, writers develop a script for host Tom Bergeron, and each show is taped in front of a live audience. The clips that fail to produce a laugh are pulled from "America's Funniest Home Videos" before it airs.
Even though viewers can watch these clips on new screens and in new ways, the essence of what people find funny hasn't changed with the times, Di Bona said. Audiences seem to connect to these unfiltered, unrehearsed vignettes of everyday life.
"We capture the American lifestyle," Di Bona said. "Whether it's a birthday party or a picnic, a pinata, a ball game, unfortunately, a hit to the crotch, weddings, bullfights. The reason the show still is a mainstay is ... how we put together what's captured."

That's why someone "receiving transmission" is really up in the air and to be taken with a grain of salt. In theory it should work as a quality control mechanism, but let's be honest, do you really think it works as it is supposed to?Fruitzilla wrote: Ah right, but that kind of applies universally if you're looking for any kind of teacher.
Academic credentials are possibly a better indication of a person's quantified understanding of Buddhism. I don't say that because I'm a scholar myself, but simply because it seems to be the case most of the time. Academics who may not practice often display a superior understanding of basic Buddhadharma than a lot of practitioners. The latter might protest and say their understanding is based on practice, not mere books, and hence is superior, but at the end of the day the academic often makes a hell of a lot more sense (not always, but often I find this to be the case).
Generally speaking if you have a post-graduate degree from a recognized institution it indicates a certain level of competence, whereas "Dharma transmission" or formal sanction from a lineage is hit or miss. There are proponents of Zen who have formal transmission from some purported Zen master, yet don't even understand basic Buddhism, or even if they do they reject it outright rendering everything else they say on the subject just plain stupid nonsense.

The red hot Lady Panthers tennis team won again Monday afternoon.
And, again, the girls knocked off the Miyamura Patriots of Gallup, N.M.
This time, Montezuma-Cortez High School welcomed Miyamura to the Jim Harfendorff Tennis Courts. But it was anything but a battle.
The Lady Panthers defeated the Patriots, 6-1, to move to 4-1 overall this season.
Kristen Parker continued her undefeated streak with a win over Miyamura's Kelley Shell, 6-1, 6-1, in the No. 1 singles match.
Sadee Threlkeld won her third match in a row for the Lady Panthers at No. 2 singles, shutting out Sanyata Komarolov, 6-0, 6-0.
At No. 3 singles, Mary Wright played nearly flawless tennis in the first set, winning 6-2. But Gabi Myers put the Patriots in a spot to win the second set, forcing a 6-6 tie. The home crowd gathered to watch the very competitive deciding set. An inspired Wright triumphed to a 7-2 tie-breaking win. Wright remains undefeated with a record of 6-0.
At No. 1 doubles, M-CHS seniors Emily Walck and Wright also remained undefeated by winning their match 6-2, 6-1. Brianna Begay and Kate Jane played some good tennis for Miyamura, but Walck and Wright were simply quicker and stronger at the net and baseline.
Jessica Quinonez and Jaci Veach dominated the No. 2 doubles match for M-CHS. Quinonez returned almost everything at the baseline, and Veach played very tough and accurate at the net.
Racquel Lucero and Skye Cole used precise serves and consistent play to win at No. 4 doubles, 6-1, 6-3.
Tori Calliham and Samantha Woyedwodzic lost at No. 3 doubles, giving the Patriots their lone win.
Kate Wright and Cheyenne Stice won the junior varsity No. 1 doubles match for M-CHS, 8-5. Courtney Gray was victorious over Miyamura in the JV No. 1 singles match, winning 8-5.
The Lady Panthers open region play this afternoon on the road against Montrose at 4. M-CHS plays Saturday morning at Grand Junction Central at 9.

|Brief description
Bibliometrics is a set of methods to quantitatively analyze academic literature. Citation analysis and content analysis are commonly used bibliometric methods. While bibliometric methods are most often used in the field of library and information science, bibliometrics have wide applications in other areas. Many research fields use bibliometric methods to explore the impact of their field, the impact of a set of researchers, or the impact of a particular paper.

big data
In information technology, big data consists of datasets that grow so large that they become awkward to work with using on-hand database management tools. Difficulties include capture, storage, search, sharing, analytics, and visualizing. This trend continues because of the benefits of working with larger and larger datasets allowing analysts to "spot business trends, prevent diseases, combat crime." Though a moving target, current limits are on the order of terabytes, exabytes and zettabytes of data. Scientists regularly encounter this problem in meteorology, genomics, connectomics, complex physics simulations, biological and environmental research, Internet search, finance and business informatics. Data sets also grow in size because they are increasingly being gathered by ubiquitous information-sensing mobile devices, aerial sensory technologies (remote sensing), software logs, cameras, microphones, Radio-frequency identification readers, wireless sensor networks and so on." Every day, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created and 90% of the data in the world today was created within the past two years.

BSON is a computer data interchange format. It is a binary form for representing simple data structures and associative arrays (called objects or documents). The name "BSON" is based on the term JSON and stands for "Binary JSON". Compared to JSON, BSON is designed to be efficient both in storage space and scan-speed. Large elements in a BSON document are prefixed with a length field to facilitate scanning. In some cases, BSON will use more space than JSON due to the length prefixes and explicit array indices.

blackboard learning system
The Blackboard Learning System is a virtual learning environment and course management system developed by Blackboard Inc. Features include course management, a customizable open architecture, and a scalable design that allows for integration with student information systems and authentication protocols. It may be installed on local servers or hosted by Blackboard ASP Solutions. Its main purposes are to add online elements to courses traditionally delivered face-to-face and to develop completely online courses with few or no face-to-face meetings.

born digital
The term born-digital refers to materials that originate in a digital form. This is in contrast to digital reformatting, through which analog materials become digital. It is most often used in relation to digital libraries and the issues that go along with said organizations, such as digital preservation and intellectual property. However, as technologies have advanced and spread, the concept of being born-digital has also been discussed in relation to personal consumer-based sectors, with the rise of e-books and evolving digital music.

A web browser or Internet browser is a software application for retrieving, presenting, and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web. An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) and may be a web page, image, video, or other piece of content. Hyperlinks present in resources enable users to easily navigate their browsers to related resources. Although browsers are primarily intended to access the World Wide Web, they can also be used to access information provided by Web servers in private networks or files in file systems.

Web accessibility refers to the inclusive practice of making websites usable by people of all abilities and disabilities. When sites are correctly designed, developed and edited, all users can have equal access to information and functionality. For example, when a site is coded with semantically meaningful HTML, with textual equivalents provided for images and with links named meaningfully, this helps blind users using text-to-speech software and/or text-to-Braille hardware. When text and images are large and/or enlargable, it is easier for users with poor sight to read and understand the content. When links are underlined (or otherwise differentiated) as well as coloured, this ensures that color blind users will be able to notice them. When clickable links and areas are large, this helps users who cannot control a mouse with precision. When pages are coded so that users can navigate by means of the keyboard alone, or a single switch access device alone, this helps users who cannot use a mouse or even a standard keyboard. When videos are closed captioned or a sign language version is available, deaf and hard of hearing users can understand the video. When flashing effects are avoided or made optional, users prone to seizures caused by these effects are not put at risk. And when content is written in plain language and illustrated with instructional diagrams and animations, users with dyslexia and learning difficulties are better able to understand the content. When sites are correctly built and maintained, all of these users can be accommodated while not impacting on the usability of the site for non-disabled users.

Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD, sometimes called Berkeley Unix) is a UNIX operating system derivative developed and distributed by the Computer Systems Research Group (CSRG) of the University of California, Berkeley, from 1977 to 1995. Historically, BSD has been considered a branch of UNIX - "BSD UNIX", because it shared the initial codebase and design with the original AT&T UNIX operating system. In the 1980s, BSD was widely adopted by vendors of workstation-class systems in the form of proprietary UNIX variants such as DEC ULTRIX and Sun Microsystems SunOS. This can be attributed to the ease with which it could be licensed, and the familiarity it found among the founders of many technology companies of this era. Though these proprietary BSD derivatives were largely superseded by the UNIX System V Release 4 and OSF/1 systems in the 1990s (both of which incorporated BSD code), later BSD releases provided a basis for several open source development projects that continue to this day. Today, the term "BSD" is often non-specifically used to refer to any of these BSD descendants, e.g., FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD or DragonFly, which together form a branch of the family of Unix-like operating systems.

bsd licence
BSD licenses are a family of permissive free software licenses. The original license was used for the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), a Unix-like operating system after which it is named. The original owners of BSD were the Regents of the University of California because BSD was first written at the University of California, Berkeley. The first version of the license was revised, and the resulting licenses are more properly called modified BSD licenses. Two variants of the license, the New BSD License/Modified BSD License, and the Simplified BSD License/FreeBSD License have been verified as GPL-compatible free software licenses by the Free Software Foundation, and have been vetted as open source licenses by the Open Source Initiative, while the original, 4-clause license has not been accepted as an open source license and, although the original is considered to be a free software license by the FSF, the FSF does not consider it to be compatible with the GPL due to the advertising clause. The licenses have fewer restrictions on distribution compared to other free software licenses such as the GNU General Public License or even the default restrictions provided by copyright, putting works licensed under them relatively closer to the public domain.

business process modelling
Business Process Modeling (BPM) in systems engineering and hardware engineering is the activity of representing processes of an enterprise, so that the current process may be analyzed and improved. BPM is typically performed by business analysts and managers who are seeking to improve process efficiency and quality. The process improvements identified by BPM may or may not require Information Technology involvement, although that is a common driver for the need to model a business process, by creating a process master.

c programming
C is a general-purpose computer programming language developed between 1969 and 1973 by Dennis Ritchie at the Bell Telephone Laboratories for use with the Unix operating system. Although C was designed for implementing system software, it is also widely used for developing portable application software. C is one of the most popular programming languages of all time and there are very few computer architectures for which a C compiler does not exist. C has greatly influenced many other popular programming languages, most notably C++, which began as an extension to C.

In computer engineering, a cache is a component that transparently stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster. The data that is stored within a cache might be values that have been computed earlier or duplicates of original values that are stored elsewhere. If requested data is contained in the cache (cache hit), this request can be served by simply reading the cache, which is comparatively faster. Otherwise (cache miss), the data has to be recomputed or fetched from its original storage location, which is comparatively slower. Hence, the more requests can be served from the cache the faster the overall system performance is.

hmm nothing really well for me that is ^^
What what? oh.. okay.
I don't think my problem is not being able to trust. I think I trust too much. I remember one of my boyfriends a few years ago told me her was going over to his friend's house to go swimming with her, I said okay, you know no big problem he wants to go swimming, I go swimming with male friends so no big deal. Then he came back and told me they were listing to music and lying on her bed, which he quickly said "Not anyway sexual, there just wasn't much room on the bed so we laid down". It didn't make sense, but I was like okay, you know maybe they are like close friends. Then he dumps me and goes out with her the same night. Weee~! So yeah, I think I trust too much.
I think my main issue is being afraid and not understanding. When I don't understand what my boyfriend has been doing it confuses me and it hurts because it feels like I'm not being told something. I'm also afraid, if I really like him chances are I'm afraid that they will go away and I'll never see him again. It hurts sometimes, but it isn't so bad that I keep guys on a leash and don't let them leave my sight.
I think of guys like stray cats and dogs (mainly cats). If you feed them, love them, talk to them, and try and understand them, they will come back. You don't question where they go when they leave, you just be there for them when you can. If you force a stray cat in your house too soon it will get scared and run away and might not come back. But if you just give it time, they will follow you into your house after you. Same with guys, well most of them. That probably didn't make sense.
Simple really. Trust, Communication, & Time.
Heds hit me up on FB!
I would have to say when your partner starts getting really clingy to you and calling like... nonstop. xD Well, that's my experience, so yeah...
I would have to say honesty and trying to open up to your partner would be another one.
when you have a BF/ GF but you love someone else... much worst... you love that person more than your partner
jamlegend <3
Here's a story of a person explaining her love life :)... it's soo.... T^T......
My husband is S/W Engineer by profession, I love him for his steady
nature and I love the warm feeling when I lean against his broad
Two years of courtship and now, five years into marriage, I would have
to admit, that I am getting tired of it. The reasons of me loving him
before, has now transformed into the cause of all my restlessness.
I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when it comes to a
relationship and my feelings. I yearn for the romantic moments, like a
little girl yearning for candy. My husband is my complete opposite; his lack of sensitivity, and the inability of bringing romantic
moments into our marriage has disheartened me about LOVE.
One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a
"Why? " he asked, shocked.
"I am tired. There are no reasons for everything in the world !" I
He kept silent the whole night, seemingly in deep thought. My feeling
of disappointment only increased. Here was a man who was not able to
even express his predicament, so what else could I expect from him?
And finally he asked me: "What can I do to change your mind?"
Somebody said it right... It's hard to change a person's personality,
and I guess, I have started losing faith in him.
Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered: "Here is the question.
If you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind.
Let's say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain cliff,
and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your death.
Will you do it for me?"
He said: " I will give you your answer tomorrow..." My hopes just
sank by listening to his response.
I woke up the next morning to find him gone, and saw a piece of paper
with his scratchy handwriting underneath a milk glass, on the dining
table near the front door, that goes....
"My dear, I would not pick that flower for you, but....please allow me
to explain the reasons further.....
This first line was already breaking my heart. I continued reading.
"When you use the computer you always mess up the Software programs,
and you cry in front of the screen. I have to save my fingers so that
I can help to restore the programs.
You always leave the house keys behind, thus I have to save my legs to
rush home to open the door for you.
You love traveling but always lose your way in a new city. I have to
save my eyes to show you the way.
You always have the cramps whenever your "good friend" approaches
every month. I have to save my palms so that I can calm the cramps in
your tummy.
You like to stay indoors, and I worry that you will be infected by
infantile autism. I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and
stories to cure your boredom.
You always stare at the computer, and that will do nothing good for
your eyes. I have to save my eyes so that when we grow old, I can help
to clip your nails and help to remove those annoying white hairs. So I
can also hold your hand while strolling down the beach, as you enjoy
the sunshine and the beautiful sand...and tell you the colour of
flowers, just like the colour of the glow on your young face...
Thus, my dear, unless I am sure that there is someone who loves you
more than I do... I could not pick that flower yet, and die ... "
My tears fell on the letter, and blurred the ink of his handwriting...
And as I continue on reading... "Now, that you have finished reading
my answer, and if you are satisfied, please open the front door for I
am standing outside bringing your favorite bread and fresh milk...
I rushed to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face, clutching
tightly with his hands, the milk bottle and loaf of bread....Now I am
very sure that no one will ever love me as much as he does, and I have
decided to leave the flower alone...
That's LIFE, and LOVE. When one is surrounded by love, the feeling of
excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that lies
in between the peace and dullness.
Love shows up in all forms; even in very small and cheeky forms. It
has never been a model. It could be the dullest and most boring form
Flowers, and romantic moments are only used and appear on the surface
of the relationship. Under all this, the pillar of true love stands...
What what? oh.. okay.
I Say Trust
because u have to trust them whoeva they are wit and hope they keep their word about they are Loving you and only You
i think the hardest thing in a relationship is staying together, honestly
your daughter was here @ 3.27.09 (;
Finding out that the person your with is cheating on you
manipulating your partner until they agree to help you with the whole "world domination" thing.
^ haha i would say the time it takes to have one
keeping it steady
your parents don't let you date yet and your dating without letting them know
Im searching for something

Today (April 21) marks the first anniversary of Prince's death at his Paisley Park complex in Minneapolis, at the age of 57 from an overdose of fentanyl.
Fans will be observing the occasion around the world and especially in Minneapolis, where a number of events will be taking place throughout the weekend. Among those taking part will be members of Prince's band the Revolution, who will open a 26-date tour as part of the commemoration.
The group reunited for three shows last year at Minneapolis' First Avenue -- made famous in the film Purple Rain -- and guitarist Wendy Melvoin tells us that the goal of the group's shows is to both celebrate but also publicly mourn Prince's passing:
"In the spirit of full disclosure we're ambivalent but we're compelled to kind of put our feet in the water and see whether or not we can find some kind of place for this grief to land. The thinking around doing some of these shows is that when we did First Avenue there was a real profound sense of shared grief with the fans with us...I always say it felt like a shiva...and we're kind of gonna take it to different areas and see if we can let the fans have a place to kind of taste a little bit of him."
The Revolution tour will feature the five members of the Purple Rain band sharing vocals, along with guest singers who may pop on stage during the tour.
...A remastered version of Purple Rain will be released later this year featuring two discs of unreleased bonus tracks. Two Prince concert films from the vaults are due for release on June 9 as well.
...Meanwhile, Nielsen Music reports that Prince sold more albums than any other artist during 2016, a combined 2.23 million copies of all his titles during the calendar year. During the year since his death he's sold a total of 7.7 million songs and albums, most of which (5.65 million) came during the month after his death.
...A posthumous Prince EP, Deliverance, was to be released today but was pulled after the estate sued; The title track, however, remains online.

Things are not as simple as they used to be—or so it seems. Perhaps there never really was a time when issues were clear-cut and moral decisions were easy. In our time, technology allows choices never before possible. Decisions about medical choices, for example, particularly those involving the beginning and ending of life, are more complex than ever before. In global economic systems the ramifications of our choices now go far beyond our local and immediate venues. How to understand complex systems and make good moral choices is a question that today's Gospel can open up for us.
The parable in today's Gospel is itself so complex that the only thing biblical scholars agree on is that it poses more questions than it answers, and no interpretation fully answers all of them. Questions such as these confront us: How can a dishonest steward be praised by his master? Who is the master? Jesus? The rich man? Is the parable about lost honor or lost income? What is the economic system presumed in the story? Does it concern usury? Or the steward's commission? What does "squandering" signify? Is the charge true or false? Who are the debtors? Is the master a sympathetic character or a villain? Is the steward someone to be emulated or is he a picaresque character designed to give us a chuckle in a comic story?
To complicate things further, it seems that the original parable of Jesus ends at verse 8a, and verses 8b to 13 are more like homily notes of early interpreters. These verses are stitched together by catchwords offering four different interpretations around the theme of the right use of money, none of which really captures the dynamics of the parable proper.
One possibility for this Sunday is not to try to settle the interpretation of the Gospel parable, but to look instead at the underlying values and attitudes that the readings propose, which orient us toward what we must do in order to be able to make good moral decisions in complex situations. In the first reading, the situation seems straightforward: the dishonest merchants cannot wait for the sabbath to be over so they can return to cheating the poor.
As with Amos, our first important step is to cultivate the ability to see from the perspective of those made poor and to be outraged, as he was, about economic practices that feed greed and "trample upon the needy." Once one sees these practices, it is then important to do whatever is possible to counter them. Publicly raising one's voice, as did Amos when telling the truth about the unjust practices, is one important response. Another is to observe sabbath days, when rest and communal and contemplative prayer can help communities of faith to cultivate eyes that see what is needed for the common good. A sabbath rest from buying and selling also provides a hiatus from exploitation of the poor and cultivates reliance on providence.
The letter to Timothy reminds us of the importance of praying for all those in authority so that they will be persons of wisdom, able to lead in such a way that all can enjoy a dignified and tranquil life. From the Gospel we can see that a time of crisis is an opportunity to assess one's own or a community's strengths and weaknesses while weighing different possibilities for the future. Cultivating relationships, as did the steward, is essential. When all these values and practices are put together, then a creative solution for the common good emerges and decisive action can be taken.

Two news items from last week raise hope that the American society will hasten progress on the national obesity crisis.
Two news items from last week raise hope that the American society will hasten progress on the national obesity crisis.
One, the American Medical Association voted June 19 to declare obesity a disease. That move officially defines 78 million adults and 12 million children as having a medical condition that requires treatment.
Two, the mayors of 18 cities, including New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, are publicly pushing Congress to ban the use of food stamps to buy soda and other sweet drinks. One need only look at the real estate that such drinks occupy in any supermarket or convenience store to see the prominent role calorie-laden drinks play in the American diet.
There will always be opposition to government intervention in people's life choices. But remember, taxpayers foot the bill for food stamps, a longstanding federal program now called Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that 47 million Americans use. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was right on the money in saying "Why should we continue supporting unhealthy purchases in the false name of nutrition assistance?"
Obesity limits people's physical activity and claims lives. It's also a costly disease, by one measure adding about $147 billion each year to the cost of U.S. health care. In part, higher caloric intake is to blame. Americans take in about 250 more calories a day now than they did in the 1980s, at the same time they're finding more and more ways to recreate by moving nothing besides their thumbs.
Obesity is associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney problems, arthritis and other problems. It's a complex medical condition that deserves more attention from physicians and medical researchers.
Meanwhile there's no sense in forcing taxpayers to pay for food stamp users' purchase of nutritionally empty calories. SNAP vouchers should cover the cost of healthy foods and drinks.
Americans need to have a conversation about a disease that's affecting nearly a third of the population. Eating better and getting healthy physical activity will help many of them avoid carrying health-threatening extra pounds. That ounce of prevention would be far less troublesome, not to mention expensive, than the cure.

By Wayne Veysey at Etihad Stadium
It is hard to judge the mood of Carlos Tevezsimply from his facial expression.
As a man who wears the almost permanent frown of one who has lost a fistful of dollars and found a peso, Manchester City's Argentine enigma is notoriously difficult to read.
It takes a particular brand of vexation to score a hat-trick and lay on two assists to steer your club to a 5-0 win and the semi-finals of the FA Cup, yet still manage to appear angry with your manager when you leave the pitch even though you had personally signalled to be replaced.
Tevez's testing times
|Joins Manchester City after failure to renew his deal with rivals United. City fans erect "Welcome to Manchester" banner on Deansgate.
|Hands in written transfer request despite being made club captain in August. The club refused to give in and Tevez apologises and vows to stay.
|Refuses to warm-up in Champions League match against Bayern Munich. Mancini says that the Argentine is "finished" at the club. Tevez plays golf in his home country and misses out on £10m in income.
|Returns to first-team action after apologising unreservedly. Celebrates with golf swing celebration after hat-trick at Norwich in April.
A riddle, wrapped up in a mystery, inside an enigma. Winston Churchill's quote about 1939 Russia could have been coined for Tevez, who is keeping the cod psychologists busy now that Mario Balotelli has taken his own version of unpredictability back to Italy.
Will the notoriously restless El Apache also fly the nest this summer? Tevez is careful not to fashion an emotional allegiance to a mere football club yet, somehow, amid all the grumbles, strikes and disregard for officialdom, he is about to complete his fourth season in the sky blue half of Manchester.
For a player who forfeited nearly £10 million in wages, fines and lost bonuses in a forlorn attempt to tunnel his way out of Etihad Stadium last season, that represents an achievement of sorts.
Tevez lost his primary status in the City striking roster the moment the infinitely more gifted and hassle-free Sergio Aguero signed.
Yet, with Aguero injured, Balotelli gone and Edin Dzeko openly eyeing a return to the Bundesliga, suddenly Tevez is the forward being relied upon by Roberto Mancini to win matches.
Conveniently, the Argentine is in a rich vein of form. His clinical hat-trick against Barnsley extended his recent run to six goals in four games, lifting his season's haul to 15, two more than both Aguero and Dzeko.
After sweeping in the third of his goals at the 49-minute mark, the home support, who never lost faith in Tevez even during his prolonged estrangement from the club, were treated to the rare sight of a broad grin on his face.
The satisfaction of a job well done did not last. In keeping with the player's perverse nature, he had what looked like a testy exchange with Mancini as he left the pitch.
"He asked to come off," confirmed the Italian, with the bluntness that is common when addressing the misbehaviour of one of his charges. "He said, 'It's better for me to come off'. Maybe he was tired."
Second guessing Tevez is a dicey occupation, but it does beg the question why he had the temerity to be angry with his manager when he had hooked himself.
Mancini admitted he had considered resting Tevez for the home cup tie against a side placed 22nd in the Championship, particularly in light of the latest controversy in his player's rollercoaster life.
On Thursday, Tevez was arrested on suspicion of driving while disqualified. He will return to Macclesfield police station on Tuesday to find out if he has been charged and will face trial.
|Carlos Tevez is 9/2 with Bet365 to score the first goal against Everton
In the aftermath of the striker's game-changing display, his manager attempted to make light of what is a serious situation. "If it is a problem to him, I hope the police stop him every day – I hope they do it next Friday because he scored three goals today and won the game."
While Tevez remains innocent, Mancini will be satisfied that the player who is ending the season with the same vim with which he began it is writing stories for the sports pages rather than the news pages.
As to what the future holds, it is anybody's guess as far as Tevez and his notoriously impatient entourage are concerned.
His age (he turned 29 last month), £198,000-a-week basic wages and accident-waiting-to-happen persona is an acid combination for all bar a handful of clubs.
But Carlito's way is not to follow the obvious path. He revealed in January that he had snubbed City's offer a two-year extension to his contract, which expires in the summer of 2014.
Explaining that his plan is to link up with Boca Juniors for a second time, Tevez said: "i would prefer to return home, but it is very difficult because City won't let me leave for nothing. I will stay in Europe for another two years and then go back."
For Tevez and City, the romance is long dead. But while he is doing the business, it is a convenient marriage for both parties.

On June 3, 2003, two months after Pfc. Jessica Lynch was taken prisoner in Iraq, a suspect in the attack on her convoy, Nagem Sadoon Hatab, 52, was detained by US forces. He was taken to a detention facility near Nasiriyah, where he was beaten and strangled to death. Two Marines, Sgt. Gary Pittman, 41, and Maj. Clarke Paulus, 37, eventually faced criminal charges at highly publicized courts-martial in Camp Pendleton, California, in 2004.
It seemed like an easy case to prosecute–complete with witnesses to the brutal beatings. Ultimately, though, the most serious charges were dropped. In September 2004 Pittman was convicted of dereliction of duty and assault, sentenced to sixty days of hard labor and reduced in rank; two months later Paulus was found guilty of dereliction of duty and maltreatment and dismissed from the Marines.
What happened?
Interviews with people involved in the courts-martial, and military documents recently obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union through the Freedom of Information Act, shed some light on the proceedings. Pathologist Lieut. Col. Kathleen Ingwersen ruled Hatab's death a homicide and placed blood, urine and tissue samples in a cooler to be shipped back to the Armed Forces Medical Examiner's Forensic Toxicology Laboratory in Washington. But the cooler got left on a tarmac in 100-plus-degree heat, explains Marine Col. William Gallo, an assistant US attorney in San Diego, who acted as an investigating officer from December 2003 to February 2004.
"The cooler exploded," he says.
Then Hatab's fractured hyoid bone, a key piece of evidence, was shipped to Landstuhl, Germany, and his rib cage was sent to Washington. Or maybe it was the other way around, says Hina Shamsi, a senior counsel with Human Rights First, an advocacy organization based in New York and Washington, and co-author of an upcoming report that examines the cases of Hatab and close to 100 other detainees who have died in US custody in the "war on terror." In the end, the evidence was irrevocably damaged.
"You send one body part to one country and another to another country, and of course you can't prosecute," says Deborah Pearlstein, director of Human Rights First's US Law and Security Program and co-author of the upcoming report on detainees who died. "The evidence is destroyed through what looks like incompetence."
It's not just the Hatab investigation that was botched, says Pearlstein. There has been a pattern of disregard for the niceties of evidence collection, storage and processing–as well as the handling of witnesses–in dozens of cases in which detainees have died in US custody. And those are just the on-the-ground investigations undertaken by the military in the wake of detainee deaths or allegations of torture and mistreatment.
There have also been twelve large-scale internal military investigations, including the much-publicized reports of Maj. Gen. Antonio Taguba on the Army and Maj. Gen. George Fay and Lieut. Gen. Anthony Jones on military intelligence. The reports, which include testimony from hundreds of military personnel and run into thousands of pages, were prompted by public outcry and Congressional inquiries into the abuse of detainees. And yet the reports have been inadequate, flawed and, in many cases, overly protective of the military personnel they purport to investigate, say human rights activists and legal experts.

Banks Rush to Ease Supply of Money
Israel Is Latest to Cut Interest Rates in Pursuit of Faster Growth, Weaker Currency to Spur Exports
Joining a recent wave of global central bank easing, the Bank of Israel cut its benchmark interest rate Monday in a surprising move aimed at relieving upward pressure on the country's currency.
A growing number of central banks have been cutting rates. Slowing inflation gives them more leeway to pursue policies aimed at stimulating growth amid a global economic slowdown. Meanwhile, some central banks, including Israel's, are trying to prevent their currencies from rising and hurting exports....

Hello ladies!
First of all thanks so much for your replies to my previous posts. This forum is great for new moms like me!!
Now... I'm having issues keeping up with my baby demand. She's been taking 3.5 to 4 oz bottles every 2 hours while I'm at work, for a total of 5 feedings. Oh! She's 4.5 mo, 15# and 25 in long, so she doesn't have any issues growing! Her diaper output is normal too.
Back to the issue, I am pumping 4 times a day at work, and getting about 3.5 oz bottles every time. But I am missing one bottle to make up for that 5th feeding.
I started taking fenugreek to see if I can pump more milk, but it hasn't work (yet). I am also eating oatmeal every morning.
I don't think I can accommodate another session at work, sometimes I can't even pump 4 times due to the workload I have. I was going to try today, but I am afraid I will get less milk if with pumping sessions spaced out less than 2 hours.
Also, since she's eating some much, my freezer stash is gone. I need to somehow recuperate!
Any advice will be welcome!

Put it this way, was on a cruise about 3-4 weeks ago and every single person who were reading didn't have a book, it was all kindles and ipads and what not. Who the fuck goes on a cruise to read?
MMMmmmmm Daddy plz
The world going "digital", reminds me of an anime I saw a few years back... Well who knows if the world is going "digital", but I can tell you it would take a few hundred years before what I think you are thinking will happen.

yes it is sir, read fahrenheit 451 by ray bradbury the world will become this...anyways blu-ray quality can't be streamed sry to break the news bud that quality is god-like it surpasses 1080p its not 1080p ...you can't stream that quality anyways sooo that will never be streamed due to profits and bandwidth issues.
Blu-ray has a max bit-rate of 40Mbps.
My home broadband is 60Mbps and could be upgraded to 120Mbps for a fairly reasonable price. I can stream BR media perfectly.
The cost of bandwidth to stream a full BR disc of data (25GB, realistically this would be less) starts at $3 on Amazon EC2 on it's most expensive tier, and would drop to $1.75 for a medium sized provider (4000 full BR streams a month). This price is reasonable for rental service on a Pay Per View model.
In short, this is not only already possible but it is also practical for some business models.
Edit: As UHDTV was mentioned, UHDTV 4k has been compressed to a 250 Mbs format.
There are already quite a few Countries/Cities where this is already available. The main issue obviously being the lack of UHDTV capable displays and the current cost of bandwidth making it unsuitable for video streaming services such as YouTube. This is one area broadcast TV has an advantage as they only have to send the signal once. While it is while away from being common, we managed to use it quite nicely in the 2012 Olympics :D.
Sir, I see your valid points. Pay close attention to what i stated. He couldn't stream it specifically.
Profit issues include distribution of proper BD quality computers and proper ISP speeds to stream. Not everyone has these matter of fact most Americans don't have these. I can totally see it being used a on a larger scale in the foreseen future.(actually its predicted for 2025 to be widely because of 100mbps capability prediction)
Then thinking about how many streaming providers would have to upgrade their equipment and those costs. Then the consideration of how many people actually would offer the service.
Then the fact of how much total it smacks your bank just to get all the prerequisites to stream blu-ray quality will pack a whallop like christmas shopping that it will be difficult for the average American as it is right now to stream blu-ray.
(>^.^)> <(^.^<) Everyone needs a hug every now and then. Do somebody a solid.
Streaming 1080p is not hard, man. It's already been done.
Actually yes, the world is going to "cloud" and streaming computing. I actually work a lot with datacenters for my job and I can say from experience that my business is booming. The owner of my company has had to turn down work because there are so many new datacenters being built. Part of the reason for this big boom in datacenter construction is the increasing demand for remote memory such as cloud storage. The other reason is to provide backup/redundancy if a single site fails.
So no, it doesn't seem like optical media and the like are disappearing, they are intentionally being phased out. Think of it from a business perspective -- no DVDs to burn, no boxes, no shipping costs, no warehouse stockboys, no warehouses, no manufacturing facilities, fewer employees to pay and less environmental impact -- that means more of the licensing fees make it to the owners pocket. A media executive would have to be high in order to go against that. It is also easier for the average user to access data. A lot of major tech companies are actively pushing for cloud computing. If you look at the technical specs of mobile devices such as phones and tablets, they are actually coming with less memory now than they did a couple years ago, because there is a much greater reliance on streaming data -- and it forces users to subscribe to services which do stream data.
Of course there will always be a need for physical media for very private materials or backups, but physical storage media will eventually become the same as sheet film or VHS -- rare and only for specialty purposes.
I hate storing DVD or CD. I would only buy the CD if I really really like the artists.
I wish everything would just stream. That would be awesome. No more papers, dvds or cds.
I like filling forms online, reading lecture notes online, listening to lectures online... hahaha.
It saves so much space.
The way I hold you and the night just seems to fly
when it goes fully digital some of us will be great collectors and dvd's will make us millionS!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like it might be heading in that direction.
I noticed this is happening. Today, I went to a pawn shop and found a few bluray movie I wanted to see. I got five for twenty dollars. Common sense would dictate that the movies would at least have a scratch, but they were almost brand-new. The only thing missing is the plastic wrapped around it. I think people bought the blurays for the digital copy and sold it when they got it. I can't complain. I got five movies for 4/5th the price of one at Walmart.
Time to move on. Start with a to-do list and go from there.
simple answer, YES. complicated answer, JOIN THE WIRED
If your seeing this now then i would have to say "better late then never".
I deal a lot with electronics, audio/video equipment to be accurate so i'm always looking at advancements in technology to keep up with my job. Good example of advancement i saw about a month ago stating a new process which sends information at fiber optic speeds over and normal Ethernet (Cat6) cabling and without slowing down normal Ethernet activities. So for all the people that dumped money into fiber i just started laughing.
