Interesting move. A disfigured newsreader will read the news on Channel 5 for one week - http://www.zee.me/blog...
James Partridge, chief executive of Changing Faces
Newsreader? - Rochelle
"Newsreader" is Brit for "Anchor." In the US, anchors traditionally started as reporters. The BBC (and thus other UK news broadcasts) de-emphasized the reporting skills of the presenter. - John Craft
Oh, okay. To me, "newsreader" is the program I use to organize and read RSS feeds! - Rochelle
"Two nations divided by a common language," indeed ;) - John Craft
This is a great idea and helps to stamp out prejudice. - Bill Masson
yeah +1 Bill - Zee.
Newsreader = reader of news. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Kol, I read the local news when I got up this morning. :) - Rochelle
Americans stopped speaking English decades ago ;) - Roberto Bonini
Rochelle, ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Good for them. I can't imagine any of the US news programs doing it, sadly. - Spidra Webster
You know, as much as it is difficult to look at some of these unfortunate people, it is a stark reminder of the real world. One that I'm grateful for. - Roberto Bonini

I have a hard decision to make: a new SLR. I have been eye'ing the 5D Mk II since before its launch, but then 7D came along. I am attracted by 7D's 19-all-cross-type AF points, but want the full-frame. So I am wondering if anyone have an opinion on the AF points on 5DMkII? Fast focusing is ideal - can't afford the 1D. #canon #photography #tools
Does it need to be Canon? You don't have to compromise if you don't want to. The D700 has 51 AF points and is full frame. - Benjamin Golub
It does need to be a canon. I own too many lenses to switch. :) - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Ah, then you are in a bind. I went from a D40 to a D700 but seriously considered the 5D mk II because I hadn't invested in expensive glass yet. The reason I stayed with Nikon was because I did not like the 5D mk II AF system - Benjamin Golub
What don't you like about the AF on 5D mk II? - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
(I wonder if Nikon has a competitor crossgrade program similar to many software tools...) Maybe someone should start a canon-to-nikon + nikon-to-canon program! - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
@Benjamin.Golub What I meant was: Does the 5D MkII have focusing issues (slowness) or are you simply referring to the number of AF points? - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
For my reference 5DMkII whitepaper https://docs.google.com/filevie... - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
If the full frame is important, 5D... other than that 50D... The 7D is just a latest & greatest 1.6. I doubt you will notice some great AF that makes your images any better. If I had it to do over.. the 5D although I'm quite pleased with my 50D. I don't really think relying on a camera to take pix is important. People are killin other photags all day with rebels. The 7D is just a marketing move to fill a gap Nikon has covered. - Signal7
I think it depends on what you shoot on a regular basis. People have called the 5DII a one-AF point camera. I personally don't think it's THAT bad although things does occasionally get a little iffy with the outer points in low light. Also, AI Servo works best with the center point (plus the 6 assist points). It really is pretty crappy with the other points. I feel that the 7D does have... more... - ronin
Lenses are improving as quickly as sensors. When I went digital, I had a number of Nikon lenses - I kept a 35mm 1.4 and a 50mm 1.4, but got rid of the others. Even if a full-frame option had been available, I don't think I would have kept my old lenses. So unless you have a collection of L glass, you may find that newer lenses are sharper. - John Craft
Thanks for all your input! #smlthankyou Quick AF is important to me for my photojournalism shots. And yes I do have a collection of L glass. I just looked into the 5D2 on B+H and after tax it came up to $3000 with no change. Ouch. I guess I will give 7D a whirl then. The viewfinder is really sweet. - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
@ronin so you own the 7D? Oh interesting to note. I will definitely investigate this further... :) - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
@Signal7 I don't believe that equipment makes photos better. However, my 10D is *really* showing its age. It's also closing into its 60,000 shutter cycle. So I must upgrade. :) - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
@SML I have both the 5D2 and the 7D. I use the 7D primarily for chasing my kid around outside. Otherwise I like me some FF. =) - ronin
@ronin Just look into 5D2 further. Single cross-type AF point. Ouch. Based on 'chasing kids around outside' statement, I guess I will likely get the 7D then - I don't chase kids, but I chase lots of people around daily. Just read the 7D brochure re the new AF system - sounds like the 1D. Also checked it out at the store and the viewfinder is super sweet. I think that I'm set here. Thanks for all your feedback! - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Yeah I'm really hoping they move the 7D AF over to whatever the 5D2's successor will be. I can only assume the reason they didn't do it for the 5D2 to begin with was cause it wasn't ready until now. - ronin
5D3. So excited! ...and so glad I didn't make the 5D2 purchase last year. This is a dream. I guess I can forget about the full-frame for now. It's been 3 years since I had the time to do landscape photography... wonderful memories (not knowing how to drive a car does not help) :) - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
ok dropped the ball and bought the 7D. Arriving on Monday. psyched!!! - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Woh sorry I missed the rest of this thread! To answer your question: I didn't like the 5D mk II because it felt slower to me than the D700. Also a little clumsy but that could just be because I'm used to the Nikon way of doing things. I think you'll be happy with the AF on the 7D. And you can always sell the 7D to fund the next FF body Canon comes out with which is sure to have the improved AF system. - Benjamin Golub
This is true because I'm slow when I get to play with a Nikon. It takes me a second. I have a Kawasaki. When I get on a Suzuki, it DOES take me a second to get it together. - Signal7
@Signal7 ??? Kawasaki + Suzuki are bikes no? :) - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML

Yesterday my site was hacked and a Bank of America phishing scam was installed on my domain. Looking at my server stats, approximately 400 people hit my site because of the scam (and for me, that's quite a lot). Now that this has happened, I'm wondering - should I just get rid of the domain name and move my site to a different host?
Depends on the access 'the scam' had... and if it disturbed your usual business. - ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,
neither may be necessary. it doesn't look like google has caught up with the scam yet, so no google juice lost. what you should do first is figure out (if you can) how they got in. remove the files the hackers added. fix your permissions so that none of your files or directories are writable (444). check your other files and scripts for malicious code, or better yet, export from the DB... more... - tiffany
that really sucks. I have lost all faith in humanity. OK, not really, but still, it sucks. - Laura Norvig
Even if some gogle juice is lost, their webmaster tools will let you quickly rescan your site and remove any malware notification Google might include in the search results. This problem is extremely commonplace (sadly) so Google has provided a way to clean up the mess. - Jason Huebel from Android
I have a domain that's been attacked twice this year. I believe both times it was an exploit in a plugin, not the WP core. I don't see any benefit to moving hosts or changing domain names. Do keep an eye out for repeats - in particular, you might want to delete any CRON entries in the WP_OPTIONS table, which might re-deploy the files. - John Craft
to follow up what john said: search secunia to see whether any of your plugins have known vulnerabilities. upgrade or delete as appropriate. - tiffany
tiff: 444, not 644? My host recommended 644 file permissions/755 directory permissions. - cecily
444 means that the files are read only and not even you can edit them without making them writeable first. Same for 755 on directories: If you set the permissions to be 555, then you're not allowed to create or delete files until you change the permissions on the directory. - DJF
i use 444 because i'm paranoid like that :-). although i suppose 6 vs 4 doesn't mean much if the server is compromised enough. - tiffany
Yeah, but it makes sense. I just wasn't sure or clear if the wp-app would still work if permissions were set to 444, but all seems fine right now. The Google malware scan didn't turn up anything else, thank goodness. - cecily

THE THREAD IS 12% BETTER NOW. - Sparky, a big deal
I just use this image as a way to announce crap. no one really pays attention to my feed... except my enemies. so when I have something important to say I tell the Asian Titty lickers. it is my strong belief that this thread needs it's very own domain name. something like http://xrl.us/TittyLickers - Noah David Simon

Nooooooooo - don't close it! - Sparky, a big deal

I posted this http://friendfeed.com/kmeelah... about this thread, and no-one saw it... - Kamilah Gill
LONG LIVE THE MEME THAT IS THIS. - Sparky, a big deal
You know, every time this pops up, since FF hides the middle of the comments of which there are 804 or so, I see Akiva say "I'm sorry." at the top. It makes me wonder about how some things are just not possible to apologize for! - Rick Cogley
wow, I can't believe tomorrow is Friday :o) no, wait, somewhere in the world it's ALREADY Friday :o) - David Gross from email
It's already Friday in Japan. - Rick Cogley
Thanks Rick, thats what I thought.. does that mean I can start with the #followfriday on twitter or do I have to wait till it is Friday here in NJ? would be funny to post it from this post LOL all my friendfeed goes to twitter.. - David Gross from email

David - yeah, you can get an early start. - Rick Cogley
Rick, I am not good at lists or #followfriday but there are lotsa good people in this thread. - David Gross from email
the thing that strikes me about this (aside from the obvious) is after seeing this thing pop up like 35-40 times since March its just occurred to me that I don't have any (guy) friends that a) would lick my nipples b) would lick my nipples for a photograph. Maybe I should get out more... - J. Abdul-Qahhar
I'm a little scared that I've this has gotten more than 800 comments and almost 200 likes over nearly five months and I still haven't clicked "Hide." - Scott of Two Countries

For the life of me, I'll never understand the emotion people have around this picture for or against. There's no nudity at all, not even implied nudity. Less dude nudity than a beer commercial or cigarette ad, yet there are people who really really really hate this picture. - Matthew DeVries

Rumor is that this isn't bumping up anymore so I'm trying it out. - Rochelle
It bumped - Matthew DeVries
MOOBIES!!!! Wait wut was I doing? - Jimminy
The bumping algorithm includes things like novel people posting to it, in addition to thread age, and rapidity of comments. If the same 3 people are talking in a thread, it quits bumping because it's obviously a closed tea party. - Matthew DeVries
He said tea party. - Mattb4rd
Can't unsee this. - Matt Hilton

Akiva's a boy! He's not a girl! He's a boy! - Christopher Harley
LMAO, I'm surprised, that David never this belief sooner here. - Jimminy
Wishful thinking, perhaps. - Akiva Moskovitz
Why are my private beach photos on Akiva's feed? - Mike Nayyar from iPhone
Mike, I think it's because Akiva felt like sharing a picture of the back of his head, like always.(guy on the far right) - Jimminy
Totally can't be me, Jimminy. No kippah. - Akiva Moskovitz
I forgot, also you're a very handsome guy(saw the wedding images), I don't understand why you don't like to share your face. Rochelle is a lucky lady. - Jimminy
Jimminy, it's an irrational phobia. No different than people who are afraid of heights, spiders, clowns, or Canada. - Akiva Moskovitz
Oh, and thanks! You sly dog, you! - Akiva Moskovitz
I say again. WTH! - Got Love For DB™?
Akiva, now I'm LMAO at the fear of Canada. People are actually afraid of Canada, or just the fact they don't know if they're British or French? - Jimminy
I don't think even Canadians know that difference. - Akiva Moskovitz
Leave Canada out of this. - Sparky, a big deal from iPhone

It is now September 1st, and this has not reached 1000 comments. I am sorely disappointed. Yet, for some reason, I am uplifted by the smile of this young man, who was fortunate enough to have such great friends that fateful day on the beach. - Josh Haley
Quick let's add some comments... Gee that guy on the far left is not really getting into the swing of things is he? - Travis Koger
Travis... bear in mind that we don't know what "main chubby guy's" right hand is doing, or where it's doing whatever it's doing... - Mark Jepsen

Welcome back, asian nipple lickers! - Jason Huebel
Who here hasn't licked a asian nipple or 2? - Matthew DeVries
This guy. - Jordan Hofker
On Fark, there was this one thread, that just kept growing and growing. On Fark, it was a single page per thread. And you could post images and gif inline. Well the thread wouldn't die, people just kept posting. I forget which one it was. Anyway, it got so monsterous, that few people going to read/post to it per day (which was only a handfull) accounted for 1/3 of the server load of the site. They eventually had to cull that thread. - Matthew DeVries
I think everyone who has participated in this thread has 'culled' themselves privately. - Akiva Moskovitz
ah - now that's the way I like to start the week! - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
This is how I always start my week. - Sparky, a big deal

Anyone who doesn't appreciate this thread is clearly not developing a FriendFeed iPhone client because this is a great stress test case. (It crashes BuddyFeed, by the way.) - Akiva Moskovitz from iPhone
Also it exercises the crap out of your thumb trying to scroll down to the bottom of it. - Akiva Moskovitz from iPhone
Do you need to appreciate the pic in order to appreciate the thread? - Travis Koger
If I un-collapse this thread, will it break my computer? - Eivind

Matthew, you may have given some people more reason to keep bumping this thread. - Victor Ganata

He's talking about the iPhone. - Josh Haley

Robert Scoble
EthanZ: "Why we fall for fast news" - continuing the conversation with @dangillmor on the slow-news movement: http://is.gd/4RgWe - http://twitter.com/EthanZ...
Didn't find the piece insightful. There'll always be the human need to hear things first, even if the source is unreliable. And there'll always be cool heads to take a moment and think rationally about what just happened, after the dust has settled.. - Andy Connell
Because we buy on the rumor and sell on the news. Slow-newsers are buying at the top. You have to understand both. - Cliff Gerrish
Cliff: agree there's room for both. Andy: disagree the fork comes after the dust has settled. It seems like there should be a provision for a user in scanning the news to say whoa, hold up, that's something worth exploring. I know, it's called a bookmark, but who ever gets back to those? Same with conferences, podcasts. I'd love to see a practice bloom in which any discussion ends with... more... - Amyloo
I see nothing wrong with "fast" as long as it's accurate. And there's the rub - fast often turns out to be wrong (balloon boy, Ft. Hood, etc.), and being wrong no longer has any consequences. Frank Reynolds was humiliated when he wrongly announced James Brady was dead in 1981 - today's stenographers just throw it out there under the guise of "we're just repeating what we heard." Stenography isn't reporting. - John Craft
News now follows the startup model: try something quick, fail fast, iterate, converge on what works. Maybe not the most ideal model to follow for news. - Todd Hoff
Jorge Escobar
What do you think if FriendFeed exposes the Friend lists you're in ala Twitter? Thoughts?
I'd need to change some of my list names; for instance "Super Vixens" might become "Wholesome Young Ladies" - RAPatton from iPhone
I thought there was a way to do that...I could just be confused :) - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
HAHA Rap! Rah, there's no way to do it right now - Jorge Escobar
If someone clicks through to something that tracks referrals while they're using a list, then, yeah, you'd see the list names. Sometimes I'll see what list folks have me on when I check my blog stats. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
That's correct pea. But the majority of people don't track and/or click through to your items. - Jorge Escobar
I'd definitely would have to change my lists names. LOL - Anika
That would not be a good thing to do after-the-fact. Better to make a separate public lists feature. - LogEx
HAHA Anika -- I'm very SFW, so wouldn't worry. BTW, what list am I on *your* profile, Anika? Quick! - Jorge Escobar
I only have one list, but I'd prefer that list remain private. - Jason Huebel
Choice to make it public is fine. Private by default. - Micah Wittman
Micah: absolutely, you choose to make private or public, like Twitter does. - Jorge Escobar
I prefer how it is here. Users are given a choice to join a group. There's no choice being on a list. - Rodfather
Rod, Groups and Friend Lists are two different things. I'm talking about exposing what Friend Lists you are in your friend's profiles. Like I have 4 Friends Lists: Influentials, Blog Readers, Cool Friends and Español - Jorge Escobar
I would definitely need to rename my FFersILF list... - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
ILF? Is that... - Jorge Escobar
* hopes he's not on Rahsheen's list * - John Craft
:: Hopes he is :: :P - Jorge Escobar
It wouldn't be so bad. My lists names are so plain. :p - Rodfather
Mine are fine. I've, at last, updated them today. - Kol Tregaskes
Yes, my "Social Media Whales" might come across as...inappropriate. Actually, considering who's in there, they might not care. - Hutch Carpenter
My guess would be the most common list among FriendFeeders is "People who I want to appear to follow but whose content I never want to see" or something similarly named. - Ken Sheppardson
Even if you rename the list, the original name is displayed in the address bar when the new name is moused over. - Polly Potter
That would be pretty cool. They should have done it a long time ago - Ahsan Ali aka. Slick

Sounds like I have been approved in the office! :-) - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
tempted...but tied to iPhone contract...Android 2.0 is def looking better - brainno722 (Peter)
I really think I'll be getting one, but I think it's smart to wait for independent reviews. It's gotta at least be better than the Storm 2 for me to bite - LANjackal
is it really true according to BillShrink.com...that there are over 10k apps in Android market? - brainno722 (Peter)
I'm seriously considering picking up a non-phone Android 2.0 device when they come out. The android platform is evolving rapidly and I'm excited to follow along. - Sparky, a big deal
brainno: 20k+ is more like it, actually - LANjackal from IM
One of the reasons we switched from VZW to TMO was that we could get the same functionality on our Treos for about 1/3 the price (VZW's data plan was $45/mo.). Android 2.0 looks great, but not great enough to go back. - John Craft
I'd love to grab a Droid, but I'll likely wait a bit (just got a new phone). - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
Peter, I haven't counted ;) , but I've seen that number many places. - John Craft
I'm not sure that the number of apps is a good indicator, anyway, given that games and wallpapers get counted as apps. I use the Weather channel app, an FTP client, several Google Maps add-ons, Twidroid, a file manager, a stopwatch, subway maps, OpenTable, and of course the Flashlight. - John Craft
John: I won't lie, VZ's expensive. The only reason I can afford their unlimited service is via a corporate discount. The good thing about them is the predictable bill, unlike some carriers (I'm looking at you, AT&T) and amazing coverage. You'd have to be on the moon to not get a VZ signal - LANjackal from IM
price is a big factor for me...but i don't like iPhone's closed OS...i hope Android is more open...and yeah...VZ is also expensive...T-Mob is going to gain popularity from pricing...too bad they don't have good reception in my area... - brainno722 (Peter)
VZ's MO is QoS >>>> everything else. Including, unfortunately, features and handsets. Until next week :). But then again before the iPhone AT&T's handset offerings were nothing special either - LANjackal from IM
yeah I was using Sprint cuz of their sleak Samsung phone...then iPhone came out and I drooled...still waiting for a driving factor to switch out of iPhone though... - brainno722 (Peter)
"You'd have to be on the moon to not get a VZ signal" - I'll give you that. TMO was pretty deficient in even providing a signal in a lot of rural areas. I was pleasantly surprised in September to be out in rural Michigan and get full 3G in places where before my G1 was a paperweight. - John Craft
most definitely - Jason Kintzler
I really like the HTC Hero, but not the DROID so much - Shevonne
If the UI is smooth, I'll get it. If not, I may wait for the other Verizon Android phone from HTC. - Tony C
It looks really good, but I'll wait and see how much people like it. - SmallCapVoice
i don't get touch-phones with a keyboard...i know ppl are still getting used to it, but wouldn't 20+ million iphone users show that it's not that hard to learn? touch+keyboard just makes the phone bulky... - brainno722 (Peter)
One of the nice things about a physical keyboard is that you don't use up screen real estate displaying one :) - LANjackal from IM
touche; still, i wish there's a way to be best of both worlds: sleak and sexy - brainno722 (Peter)
getting it as my work phone as soon as i am upgrade eligible again - Isaac Zahavi
JUST GOT MINE. Anyone else? - LANjackal
Congrats LAN, look forward to reading the joys of using it. - Travis Koger
Thanks, it's a fantastic device thus far. Love the push Gmail and automatic mail syncing :) - LANjackal
how is the video and picture taking options? Also, surfing the net and battery life? - Amani from IM
I'm at work now and I'm about to enter a webinar and get some other stuff done. I'll find out more about all of the above as I play with it over the weekend - LANjackal
I should have mine in hand by Monday or Tuesday it sounds... - manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Y the delay? - LANjackal from IM
Will w8 for HTC :) - Sasha Kovaliov(.com)

Orange will ban Non-Orange Internet based streaming services on the iPhone. (Spotify, UStream…surely not YouTube?) - http://thenextweb.com/europe...
Orange will ban Non-Orange Internet based streaming services on the iPhone. (Spotify, UStream…surely not YouTube?)
it's not like anyone's gonna bother using it, eh zee? - James Cox from IM
it's ridiculous. How do they expect to compete? - Zee.
Precisely Zee. O2 must be ever so pleased. - Roberto Bonini
well they won't, obviously. it's just newbies getting into the net neutrality debate. they're going to get lynched - James Cox from IM
anyhow, it's all good- this has to mean that getting unlocked phones will be easier… so then running it on t-mobile uk will be much simpler, especially given that it is such a better network - James Cox from IM
But Zee, consider. Do newbies even know that non-orange streaming services exist (apart from youtube)?? - Roberto Bonini
+1 James. @Roberto honestly, I'd say YouTube and Spotify are enough to be pissed off about - Zee.
Agreed Zee. I dislike restrictions in all its forms. I'd steer well clear of Orange on principle alone. - Roberto Bonini
The strain on the O2 network, at least in London, is palpable. Most people chalk it up to increased data usage driven primarily by iPhone. The hope was that with Vodafone and Orange in the game that things would settle as the usage flattened across the services. Looks like that’s less likely to happen, now that Orange is providing a sub-optimal user experience. This kind of “protectionism” feels a lot like the music industry, before it got burned. - George Nimeh
when i switched to tmo about 5 years ago, i was told during the sales pitch that tmo were investing a million pounds a month on their data infrastructure, to build for the future they knew was coming. i believed them- and still do; in areas they've got 3g, the data rate has been pretty decent and continues to be. It also makes sense: when money was cheap, they upgraded their network. now money is expensive, it's impossible to invest. So don't expect anything to change for a while! - James Cox from IM
"Not to be used for other activities (eg using your handset as a modem, non-Orange internet based streaming services, voice or video over the internet, instant messaging, peer to peer file sharing, non-Orange internet based video)." Why does it remind me of this? http://www.youtube.com/watch... - John Craft
Although I agree with what's being said, I think this is just the old T's & C's for Orange Internet services pre the iPhone. They will change them or not enforce them. That being said, Orange is actually the worst uk network in my view and the 750mb limit just goes to show they really do not understand this marketplace. Personally I think that Vodafone will be the network of choice for the uk come Feb when they start selling it. And I for one will be porting over as soon as I can. - Keith Bennett from BuddyFeed
@James, I've tried an iPhone on tmob uk and it's not as good a service as O2 tbh. All the networks upgraded in recent times to build proper 3g services. In my experience, Vodafone is by far the best for any Internet service. - Keith Bennett from BuddyFeed
I wonder if twisting o2's arm may get me a slight reduction. - Roberto Bonini from iPhone

Watching a pregnant woman having a glass of wine with dinner at the other table. When did that become ok? IS that ok?
I heard one glass of wine a day is OK for pregnant women - Garmon Estes
Yeah it's fine - Mark from iPhone
Especially if they are drinkers before pregnancy -- the stress of wanting a glass is more harmful than a single glass. - Mona Nomura
good to know! - Shandiz
Yeah...and it has nothing to do with alcoholics being in denial about the harm their behaviour creates. - Ross Bennett
What does that mean, Ross? - Mona Nomura
Then again, maybe she was only a little bit pregnant, too. - Ross Bennett
It's like Ross didn't even read the study. Just started a shootin his mouth off.... - Matthew DeVries
What, nothing was happening with your Table? Mind your own business! - Victor Ryden
If you want to prevent FASDs definitively, abstain completely. IIRC, a glass of wine a day poses little risk -- but little risk is not no risk. - Alix Whitmire
Victor - What nothing was happening on your feed? Mind your own business! - Matthew DeVries
Alix - there's a post up there, with a link. - Matthew DeVries
Seriously? Citing a British study about alcohol consumption? Kind of like citing Roman Polanski on child care. - Ross Bennett
argumentum ad hominem - Matthew DeVries
Matthew - why is she looking around to to make aspersions on other people. Must be as bored with her own company. - Victor Ryden
Matthew, I've read it. And I've tutored kids with FASDs - it's not something I'd personally risk. As your article says, the study wasn't conclusive. None of them are, and none of them are likely to be as human bodies aren't uniform. - Alix Whitmire
Victor - why are you looking around to to make aspersions on other people. Must be as bored with your own company. - Matthew DeVries
Interestingly, your answer to Ross applies to you! - Victor Ryden
Wow, you somehow got a hold of the study, and managed to analyze it, break it down, and come to a conclusion, in....50 seconds? I have 2 graduate degrees in the life sciences, formerly lead journal clubs in pharmacology and neuropharmcology and I have literature publications in same. I currently read detailed scientific research plans in pretty much every biomedical discipline you can... more... - Matthew DeVries
One glass of red wine is ok in many countries - Shevonne
Victor - Interestingly your answer to my answer to Ross applies to you! - Matthew DeVries
It has more to do with mental states - happy people produce happy children. - Mona Nomura
Parents' mental states don't mutate their babies' DNA. - LogEx
Matthew, I think I'll leave, but your argument is sorta "I know you are but what am I" - Victor Ryden
LogEx - depends on diet too. If one eats overly processed foods and pollutes their body with alcohol, of course the probability of health issues are higher. #commonsense - Mona Nomura
LE - that's kind of backwards. The parents stress increases circulating cortisol, a steroid. Steroid "receptors" are not really traditional receptors, they're nuclear receptors, that do their work by directly effecting DNA translation, transcription, and protein assembly. Alcohol on the other hand, does absolutely nothing to DNA. It's effects are entirely epigenetic. - Matthew DeVries
In the context of alcohol, I read the article as statistical not causal. I didn't read the study, so someone may know better, but if lack of alcohol affects a woman's mood enough to affect the baby, she (they) have bigger problems. - LogEx
Now you're just fighting for fighting's sake...... - Matthew DeVries
No, I am just trying to be objective. If a pregnant woman wants to imbibe moderately, that's her choice. I'm with Alix above though... small risk is not no risk. - LogEx
"imbibe", now you are just making up words! - Mark
Yeah...if you go look a little closer at that article, you'll see it plain as day. The BMA and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists [sic] both say the safest option is not to drink alcohol while pregnant. I'm betting the AMA position is still much the same. Yet we have here a collection of anecdotal evidence of people who it didn't hurt and the headline proclaims... more... - Ross Bennett
Wow Ross, how did you even get a copy of the article at this hour? You have access to a 24 hour library? - Matthew DeVries
It's not the lack of alcohol, it's the emotions attached to being forced to give something up. And if the proper support is lacking, it is extremely hard on the female. Especially, since pregnancy causes female hormones to rage. Don't be so quick to judge, dude. - Mona Nomura
Fair point...my comments should not be construed about the study. I'm merely judging the gutter journalism that was printed in the Times Online. Really...one would expect it in the Daily Mail. Probably would have, too, if it could have blamed Fetal Alcohol Syndrome on foreigners. - Ross Bennett
No...on further reflection, I *am* refuting that conclusion. There is a vast body of evidence and learned opinion indicating alcohol is not for women who are pregnant or are trying to become pregnant. Anyone who would advise otherwise is being recklessly irresponsible. - Ross Bennett
I'm glad Matthew is so much smarter than the rest of us. I don't know what I would do without his great insight. Thanks Matthew for making my day more informed. I can now rest comfortably knowing that with his keen intellect and superior education has been shared with us. Just remember that although we may not be as sharp as you, that is no reason to make comments that puts another person down. Maybe next time have a conversation instead of attempting to make someone look or feel stupid. - Shawn Whitmire
The same article that was in The Times also appeared in a Norwegian newspaper, but the headline was even better: "Scientists now say it's okay for pregnant women to drink every day." - Eivind
Apparently the general British concept for drinking during pregnancy is avoiding it completely during first 3 months (more chance of miscarriage) and then anything up to one drink a day (although most wouldn't) - Amy
It is quite simple I think... not just for alcohol, but for anything that has even the slightest element of risk... you just don't do it. If you cannot stand to be without something for such a short period of time (relatively) then you FAIL. Even if there are studies up the wazoo about it being fine, why would you take the risk. If there is a question about the risk (even if it is your own internal doubt), you don't put yourself and your baby in the position of facing that risk. Simple. - Travis Koger
It's not always that simple Travis. Case in point - anti-depressants. - Mellissa Jane
Also, it's doesn't seem to matter what you do (or don't do) as a pregnant woman or a parent, someone somewhere is going to tell you you're doing the wrong thing, and they all seem to have studies to back up their arguments. - Mellissa Jane
I recently read a study that conclusively proves that telling pregnant women what to do causes birth defects. - John Craft
Mellissa, true there will always be exceptions, however for alcohol and other 'non-essential' pleasures in life, I am not sure you could find an example where it is not that simple. Medical issues such as anti-depressants are always going to be a tough call for the parents/mother and in a lot of those tough calls you are really just weighing which risk is greater. I guess my point is... more... - Travis Koger
That's true enough. Some areas are a little grey-er though - eg tuna, cold meat, caffeine after the first trimester. Lots of conflicting information can make it difficult, too. - Mellissa Jane
My wife's OB said it was fine so that's all I need. He ACTUALLY went to school for this and not just made observations based on hearsay and obscure articles. - Jason Williams
Hey Victor, you're kind of a jerk. - Veronica
But I'm sure you knew that already. - Veronica
I think it would be OK, in as much as a lot of things done in moderation during a pregnancy would be OK. But there will be plenty of time to drink, smoke, eat sushi etc after the child is born. In the interim why not err on the side of caution? - J. Abdul-Qahhar
Later in the pregnancy, it's fine. But the doctor told Jax's mother at one point, "Nothing's worse than a mother's regret, so why risk it?" Or something like that; I'm probably butchering it. - Andy Bakun
Ok - how many of you have been pregnant? I've actually been told to have a glass of wine by the doctor at different points in my three pregnancies and I don't drink, you have no idea and people were having babies after drinking for thousands of years. You don't get fetal Alcohol synd after a glass of friggin wine in nine months. - janiedelaney

Google Redefines Disruption: The “Less Than Free” Business Model « abovethecrowd.com - http://abovethecrowd.com/2009...
"While it is obvious that this maneuver creates a problem for the multi-billion dollar GPS market, it also poses real challenges for the leading smart phone players – RIM’s Blackberry and Apple’s iPhone. Without access to their own mapping data, these vendors now face an interesting dilemma. Do you risk flying naked without free navigation or do you suck it up and swallow the above average royalty fee for each and every handset? Neither option is stellar. This problem isn’t nearly as daunting as the one now faced by the Windows Mobile and Symbian teams. As software providers, they are lucky to get a per unit royalty equal to that extracted by the GPS data guys. If they are now forced to integrate this data merely to keep their product competitive, their gross margin just went negative. Ouch!" - Bret Taylor from Bookmarklet
I would love to be a fly on the wall in Redmond - Ray Cromwell
I'm psyched to get Google maps powered navigation. they provide much better directions than tom tom ever could... and if they calculate live traffic as well thats good. but i'm curious as to why Verizon doesn't seem to mind since their nav package is normally $15/month. - Matt Ellsworth
My experience with Google has been completely different. They were notably subpar when they stopped licensing the leader in map data a year or two ago, and their directions now are as bad or worse than MapQuest. I split the difference now between them and a GPS unit when I need to, but generally prefer to use an actual map for most accurate directions. - Cole Jolley
I think this is likely to change in a big way once they fully leverage their Street View database. Still, I can't argue with free when the errors are few IMHO. - Ray Cromwell
Is this an example of "open" systems putting people out of business? (of course, it's not personal, it's just business..." - Cliff Gerrish
What I really don't understand is: why are there so many lost people? - LogEx from iPhone
Does Google actually make any money from their maps? How many Google behaviors are enabled by their huge search revenues and how many of those can continue as their dominance wanes? Also as the article mentions Nokia owns Navteq so the "Symbian" problem is a non issue (unless you think there is a viable Symbian outside of a Nokia context). - Hayes Haugen
Now the droid initiative on verizon finally makes sense to me. I watched the demos as they showed off feature after feature that verizon likes to charge extra for thinking no way is this not going to be expensive. But with google paying verizon on search ad revenue, verizon doesn't have to nickel and dime their customers for every added feature. - dthree
"I would love to be a fly on the wall in Redmond" - things may be just as interesting in Cupertino. - John Craft
Google's move is similar to MSFT's free browser play. - Cliff Gerrish
I'm wondering how Apple's purchase of PlaceBace is going to play out. Are they going to ditch Google Maps on the iPhone? - Matt Mastracci
I also have issue with the "less than free" thing as a new disruptive thing. Pay-to-play on a platform or a device is not new (e.g. anti-virus software). - Hayes Haugen
@hayes yes, you're darn rite about Navteq thingie... - A.T.

Is anyone else surprised that the iPhone can't print? PDFs, docs, photos, web pages and email. Why can't I print them over wifi?
