People looking to walk into an Apple retailer and buy an iPhone with cash will be out of luck...





People looking to walk into an Apple retailer and buy an iPhone with cash will be out of luck. The company is now accepting only credit or debit card payments for the devices so that it can track who purchases the phone, according to an employee at the Apple Store in New York’s SoHo neighborhood. The new policy is Apple’s attempt to prevent people from purchasing and then unlocking and reselling iPhones, a situation that has been a problem for the company. Apple won’t let anyone without a credit card or debit card in their name purchase iPhones, according to an unidentified Apple Store employee in a phone interview.The part about “tracking who purchases the phone” really caught my eye. When Radio Shack, Micro Center, or some other merchant asks(ed) for my personal data, it’s not as much about giving them the information as it is about what they plan to do with it. If for example, the cashier said, “Hey, where ya from?,” I’d be happy to tell him/her. But, when the data is being programmatically absorbed into some database, that’s when I begin to envision all sorts of dasterdly usage scenarios. But tracking in the context of the iPhone unlocking debacle (which the IW story says is costing Apple millions)? Suddenly, Micro Center isn’t looking so bad.Unfortunately, the IW story doesn’t contemplate Apple’s rationale for this so called tracking and what might happen should a phone connected with a credit card end up unlocked or in the hands of someone other than the original buyer. What makes this even worse is Apple’s complete lack of transparency regarding such an unorthodox policy. Nothing about Apple’s credit/debit card requirement has been published by the company and the InfoWorld report says the following: Apple’s public relations team did not respond to multiple requests for comment on the new policy.

First Commercial Transistor Radio Announced-1954







Texas Instruments Announces First Commercial Transistor Radio (1954)

The
transistor radio remains the single most popular communications device in the world. There are approximately 7 billion compact, portable transistor radios worldwide. The battery operated devices, which are especially handy during electrical outages, became popular in the 1960s, when prices of some models fell below $10 as markets became flooded with radios from Hong Kong. What modern music player has led to the transistors recent decline in popularity?

Dark day at the BBC as staff learn their fate - Independent Online Edition


Dark day at the BBC as staff learn their fate - Independent Online Edition


The BBC will announce the axing of 2,600 jobs this morning – one in nine of the total staff – risking a wave of industrial action over what is the biggest round of job cuts in the organisation's history.Most of the cuts will come in BBC newsrooms, from which hundreds of journalists will be laid off, and in departments making documentaries.Mark Thompson, the BBC director general, who has been criticised for not negotiating a more favourable licence fee settlement from the Government, will also take the knife to the corporation's output of drama, children's programmes and its services in Scotland and Wales. Radio Five Live and the rolling news channel News 24 will also be hard hit.Unions are already drawing up battle lines, describing the programme of job losses as "unprecedented" and describing morale at the BBC as being at "an all time-low".The BBC Trust, which oversees the corporation, gave its approval yesterday to Mr Thompson's six-year strategy, entitled Delivering Creative Future, which is intended to create a more streamlined organisation for the digital age beyond the switch-off of the analogue signal in 2012 and place a greater emphasis on internet-based services.Sir Michael Lyons, the trust's chairman, said: "We are confident that the plans we have approved today will safeguard the core values of the BBC at a time of radical and accelerating change in technology, markets and audience expectations."Senior BBC sources tried to play down the scale of the blood-letting yesterday, saying that the net loss would be 1,780 posts, after programmes of reskilling and the creation of new jobs.But BBC staff are likely to react with anger to the announcements. Gerry Morrissey, assistant general secretary of the broadcasting union Bectu, said he expected the BBC management to be put on notice of impending strike action, after a meeting of the main unions today, which is likely to trigger a strike ballot. Staff could be on the picket lines by the end of next month.The cuts to the corporation's main newsrooms will be deepest of all, amounting to more than 360 lost posts, some 12 per cent of the total staff of BBC News. BBC Nations and Regions will have to cut 500 jobs from the teams that produce local news, more than 8 per cent of the total.After protests from high-profile presenters such as Jeremy Paxman and John Humphrys, the BBC's flagship news programmes, such as Radio 4's Today, The World At One and BBC2's Newsnight, have been largely safeguarded. One source said: "We've sought to protect the big beasts like Today, Newsnight and newsgathering. They're not exempt but they have been largely protected and it's the daily newsroom, the 24-hour machine, where we have looked to drive out the duplication."In looking for cuts, BBC management is looking to reduce duplication, with specialist correspondents being expected to work for all BBC platforms – website, television and radio – much more than is currently the case. News 24 , which has already incorporated the major bulletins into its schedule to reduce its own output, will be obliged to cut some of its weekend talk-shows and original programmes such as Dateline London.Factual programming, which includes documentaries and educational programming, will lose several hundred jobs because of "an over-capacity" of production staff in London.Mr Morrissey said he was concerned at reports from employees that letters with offers of redundancy had already been prepared for named members of staff before talks had taken place between management and unions. "Morale at the BBC is even lower than when John Birt was director general," he said.

Great Idea For Camping And For Festival Goers!


Ideal for festival-goers, hikers, campers and trans-globe explorers,the fully-portable Super Solar Shower is essentially a big vinyl bag that heats water using the sun's rays, so you can enjoy a warm shower anytime, anyplace. No plumbing or power required.

Simply fill the bag with water, place it flat with the black side up and leave it out to soak up some rays. The heat time varies depending on the temperature, but on a sunny day at a temperature of21°C (70°F) the water temperature will rise to around 40.5°C (105°F) in around 3 hours. Be warned though - the temperature can rise as high as48°C (150°F). Ouch!

Once the water is heated simply hang the bag from a branch or some other overhanging thingamabob and get your kit off. You can even slip into your bikini and re-enact that Myleene-in-the-shower moment off 'I'm a Celeb…'. (Assuming you're a woman). And with a 20 litre capacity you'll have more than enough water to wash those bugs right out of your hair.

The Super Solar Shower comes with everything you need for an alfresco shower, including shower head, flow control and hanging cord.Pack a decent bar of soap and you'll feel fresh as a daisy, wherever you may roam. Pass the loofah!

CANNABIS GRAN WINS FIGHT!


Source: BBC News

Date: July 6 2007

---
A grandmother convicted of growing cannabis at her Northumberland cottage, can continue using the drug at home.

Patricia Tabram, 68, from Humshaugh, was found guilty in March of possessing and cultivating cannabis, which she says is used for pain relief.

Her landlord, Milecastle Housing, said she was in breach of her tenancy agreement and threatened to evict her.

But after a court hearing in Newcastle, Mrs Tabram was told she could continue to use cannabis treatments in her home.

However, Milecastle Housing warned that if Mrs Tabram was convicted for either cultivating or supplying the drug in the next two years, she would be evicted.

Mrs Tabram claimed the decision was a victory for her way of life.

She said she would continue to take cannabis medicinally - but would no longer attempt to cultivate the drug at home.

Mrs Tabram appeared at Newcastle County Court, after the housing association sought permission to evict her for breaching her tenancy agreement.

Bill Tebay, chief executive of Milecastle Housing, said after the hearing: "If she is convicted of supply or cultivation, we will take action.

"The judgement as it stands means that we will not be taking action if she uses cannabis in her premises.

Walking sticks

"But it is important to note that this judgement is specific to her and that Milecastle Housing have got a very specific policy about illegal use of drugs in its premises."

Mrs Tabram said: "I will be taking my medicine five times a day to be pain free 24 hours a day.

"That means I don't have to go down the route of using two walking sticks, having a neck brace or having to be looked after by home helps."

Mrs Tabram was arrested in 2005 when police raided her bungalow.

She was in breach of a six-month suspended jail sentence when officers, acting on a tip-off, found cannabis plants and growing equipment in a walk-in wardrobe.

She was subsequently convicted at Carlisle Crown Court.
