My Lil Secret - Its Time to Share!
I began writing articles and visiting forums to give my 2 cents about cheating and relationships. Something strange happened along the way. I started getting a lot of emails and instant messages from readers or visitors of the forums asking me what I thought they should do in their relationship.
Wow! Something clicked! I realized that the painful lessons I had learned could help others. Even if it was just to help them get through their difficult situation a little bit quicker.
I decided I would build a website to educate others. I only had one problem. I didn't know how to build a website and where to even start. I started to bounce the idea off of friends to see what they thought.
A friend of mine Wellesley had been using a web host called Site Build It. It caters to beginners, but is applicable to anyone. He assured me that it was something I could do. I took his recommendation and the leap of faith and I decided to try it out.
I am continually giving Wellesley a hard time for not recommending me Site Build it a lot sooner. The package is unbelievable. It provides an action guide, design templates (no web developing experience necesssary), search engine ranking help, etc. More importantly it shows you how to make a little cash with your site.
Even though all the information on this site is completely free (and will always be!), SBI has showed me how to earn a profit with Google ads and other affiliate programs.
Yes, I give away so much for free, but the reward comes back to me through these affiliations. So instead of it costing me to maintain this website, it actually returns a nice profit. Pretty cool, huh?
You probably found this site by using a search engine. Well that's what SBI helps me with. It showed me how to build pages that rank high in the major engines so I can get as much free traffic as possible.
As for the money, Google has a program called AdSense, and it allows you to help them advertise by placing text ads on your pages.
It is such a blessing to be able to share free information that I "see" is helping others while making money at the same time.
Cool Success Story and Personal Goal!
Here's one of my favorite Site Build It! Stories and a goal that I aiming to achieve. Elad bought SBI! and created a site based on his hobby and began earning $2,000 per month after only six months.
He was completely new to website building and I love to tell my friends and family about Elad because it proves you don't have to have website building experience to achieve success with SBI!.
I Strongly Recommend..Give it a Go!
If you've got some spare time, you should try it. I wouldn't recommend it if I didn't use it myself. My advice is to pick a topic that you have a personal interest in. Think about your hobbies or passions?
Do you have the solution to a problem that can help people? Acne? Make-up? Gardening? Dating? The topic can be anything. Just make sure you are interested enough in the topic to build a useful, informative site - otherwise you'd get bored and abandon it.
The host I used, Solo Build It, is completely risk free. SiteSell.com will give you a FULL refund if it's not for you, and there's no "trial period" or any sneaky catches.
They can honor a great guarantee like that because they know they've got an outstanding product and the success stories like mine to back it up.

Common Specialist Auctions. Stafford Auctioneers Of Militaria & Medals
April 8, 2016 Lucille Wood Military Auctions
Army antiques at Skinner include weapons, equipment, flags, uniforms, and documents that can be traced to a warfare or historical military use. Bosleys are pleased to have not too long ago accomplished their greatest undertaking to date, a really fascinating valuation of the vast and prestigous Sandhurst Collection for Royal Army College Sandhurst. In early days of actual property auctions solely the properties in bad situations or subjected to foreclosures had been auctioned. Army backpacks, deployment bags, tents and other military gear is tough, rugged, and in demand by the public. Now, these army vehicles are located in sites throughout the country, including California, Utah and Georgia. Take the quiz below to see what sort of lodge, transportation or army silver may interest you. Army and Authorities Surplus in our monthly Tender Sale at Skegness, Lincolnshire.
Now we have over 35 years of experience in appraising army antiques and weapons. One reason why you must certainly patronize these auctions is that you will get to buy goods at actually low prices. A number one proveyor within the army antiques world for over 25, Grenadier Navy Antiques proudly broadcasts ! Take a look at the brilliant vary of surplus gear that is on sale at Authorities Army Surplus Auction.
AM Common, which has manufactured more than 300,000 Humvees for the reason that Army adopted them in 1985, has made no secret of its opposition to the sale of military Humvees to the general public — which had heretofore been restricted by the government.
In some circumstances, the auctions are operated completely by the government agency, whereas in different instances the company only operates the procuring website, but a third-occasion company handles the auction itself. That's right – like a advantageous wine – these cars, jeeps and trucks will inevitably peaked and will ultimately cease working as well as up to now, especially when it comes to high standards on army vehicles. Presumably the most thrilling information I would heard in years regarded government vehicle auctions. Following our evaluation, we will be in touch to discuss the sale of your lifetime army assortment, military swords, bayonets, uniforms, patches, flags, arms, helmets & headgear, paperwork, awards, medals and different military memorabilia.
Many American farmers hope that leaders in the U.S. navy will acquire that assurance by inspecting the results from planned discipline tests. An extra 23,000 components are useful for navy and commercial use and are being studied to see whether it's protected to promote them, Baillie said. Reasonably, they were referring to government automobile auctions where seized vehicles and authorities owned cars are auctioned off for really low prices! The data on this part will provide help to perceive the U.S. Government system for auctioning surplus items, particularly army vehicles. But navy leaders in the U.S. want some assurance that unforeseen issues will not eat-up any money saved by a change from petroleum-based mostly to bio-based mostly hydraulic fluids. Finding reliable information on an military vehicles on the market isn't always easy.

New RISC-V CPU claims recordbreaking performance per watt
Micro Magic's new CPU offers decent performance with record-breaking efficiency.
Jim Salter - Dec 4, 2020 11:15 am UTC
Micro Magic's new CPU prototype is seen here running on an Odroid board.
Micro Magic
Micro Magic Inc.—a small electronic design firm in Sunnyvale, California—has produced a prototype CPU that is several times more efficient than world-leading competitors, while retaining reasonable raw performance.
We first noticed Micro Magic's claims earlier this week, when EE Times reported on the company's new prototype CPU, which appears to be the fastest RISC-V CPU in the world. Micro Magic adviser Andy Huang claimed the CPU could produce 13,000 CoreMarks (more on that later) at 5GHz and 1.1V while also putting out 11,000 CoreMarks at 4.25GHz—the latter all while consuming only 200mW. Huang demonstrated the CPU—running on an Odroid board—to EE Times at 4.327GHz/0.8V and 5.19GHz/1.1V.
Later the same week, Micro Magic announced the same CPU could produce over 8,000 CoreMarks at 3GHz while consuming only 69mW of power.
OK, but what's a CoreMark?
Part of the difficulty in evaluating Micro Magic's claim for its new CPU lies in figuring out just what a CoreMark is and how many of them are needed to make a fast CPU. It's a deliberately simplified CPU benchmarking tool released by the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium, intended to be as platform-neutral and simple to build and use as possible. CoreMark focuses solely on the core pipeline functions of a CPU, including basic read/write, integer, and control operations. This specifically avoids most effects of system differences in memory, I/O, and so forth.
The Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EMBC) is a group with wide industry representation: Intel, Texas Instruments, ARM, Realtek, and Nokia are a few of its more notable and easily recognizable members.
Now that we understood all that, the next step in order to better evaluate Micro Magic's claims was to run a few CoreMark benchmarks of our own. All we needed to do here was clone its GitHub repository, then issue a make command—optionally, with arguments XCFLAGS="-DMULTITHREAD=8 -DUSE_FORK=1" if we want to test on multiple threads/cores at once.
I still have an Apple M1 Mac Mini on hand, as well as a Ryzen 7 4700U-powered Acer Swift 3, so those were my test systems for comparison. Getting the raw performance scores was considerably easier than getting truly comparable power readings. On the Ryzen-powered Linux system, I used the utility turbostat to get both Core and Package power readings while the tests were running.
I don't have access to anything nearly as fine-grained as turbostat for the Apple M1, so for that platform I took whole-system power draw at the wall and just plain subtracted the reading at desktop idle from the sustained reading while under test. This is extremely crude, and I caution readers not to rely too much on comparing the M1's efficiency to the Swift 3's on these numbers alone—but it's good enough to get some perspective on Micro Magic's claim for its new RISC-V (pronounced "risk five") CPU.
On to the tests!
Performance per watt on Micro Magic's new CPU is eye-popping as compared to typical systems. (It's worth noting that we had no way to run CoreMark on the M1's slower, less battery-hungry Icestorm cores only.)
Jim Salter
Micro Magic's RISC-V CPU delivers about 1/4 of the raw performance of a single Apple M1 Firestorm core at its hyper-efficient 3GHz clockrate.
If you've got access to a Linux system, it's pretty easy to download, compile, and run CoreMark yourself.
The Micro Magic CPU is, for the moment, single-core and single-threaded—although Huang says it could "easily" be built as a 25-core part. Micro Magic has provided figures—and in one case, a screenshot—for performance at 3GHz, 4.25GHz, and 5GHz. At the maximally power-efficient 3GHz clockrate, the Micro Magic CPU scores about one-fourth the CoreMarks of either the Ryzen 4700u or Apple M1. At the maximally performant 5GHz clock, it manages just over a third of their performance.
This is enough to let us know that the Micro Magic chip in its current form isn't a world-class competitor for traditional ARM and x86 CPUs in phone or laptop applications—but it's much closer to them than previous RISC-V implementations have been. At the power-efficient 3GHz clockrate, the Micro Magic CPU is nearly three times faster than, for example, SiFive's Freedom U540 CPU running single-threaded. At 5GHz, it outruns all four of the SiFive's cores.
Enlarge / We can see the Micro Magic CPU on Odroid board here, scoring 8,200 iterations/sec over 10 seconds. The multimeter attached to the board is reading 69mW—according to Micro Magic, that's a measurement taken during the run, not at idle afterward.
Micro Magic, Inc
At roughly a quarter the performance of world-leading x86 and ARM mobile processors, the Micro Magic CPU doesn't sound like much yet. But when we factor in power efficiency, things get crazy. I gave my Ryzen and Apple processors the benefit of every possible doubt when generating the above charts—I used core power (not total package power) on the Ryzen 4700U and ran tests with the Gnome3 desktop shut down. For the Apple, I only had access to whole-system power draw, so I subtracted the "desktop idle" power draw from the "under test" power draw.
I tested the Apple and AMD CPUs both single-threaded and multithreaded when checking power efficiency. Unsurprisingly, both parts produced more performance per watt when exercised with one work thread for each available CPU thread. None of this made much of a dent in the Micro Magic's commanding lead in power efficiency.
At 4.25GHz, the Micro Magic can accomplish the same workload as the Ryzen 4700U with less than one-third the power required. At 3GHz, that figure plummets to less than one-eighth the power required.
The Linux operating system already supports RISC-V architecture—so for headless or near-headless controllers that simply need to deliver decent performance paired with extreme power efficiency, Micro Magic's new CPU is likely most of the way there. Things get considerably more complicated once you start talking about entire consumer-friendly systems, of course. Even aside from hardware considerations like GPU and LTE modem, creating an entire Android phone based on a non-ARM architecture is likely to be a much bigger undertaking.
With that said, it's worth pointing out that—if we take Micro Magic's numbers for granted—they're already beating the performance of some solid mobile phone CPUs. Even at its efficiency-first 3GHz clockrate, the Micro Magic CPU outperformed a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820. The Snapdragon 820 isn't world-class anymore, but it's no slouch, either—it was the processor in the US version of Samsung's Galaxy S7.
If we use the EMBC's published single-core score for the Snapdragon 820 along with Anandtech's single-core CPU power test result, we get about 16,000 CoreMarks per watt. That's triple the efficiency of the Ryzen 4700u running single-threaded and a little better than par with it when the Ryzen's running an optimally multithreaded workload.
In other words, Micro Magic's prototype CPU is both significantly faster and tremendously more power-efficient than a reasonably modern and still very capable smartphone CPU.
All of this sounds very exciting—Micro Magic's new prototype is delivering solid smartphone-grade performance at a fraction of the power budget, using an instruction set that Linux already runs natively on. Better yet, the company itself isn't an unknown.
Micro Magic was originally founded in 1995 and was purchased by Juniper Networks for $260 million. In 2004, it was reborn under its original name by the original founders—Mark Santoro and Lee Tavrow, who originally worked at Sun and led the team that developed the 300MHz SPARC microprocessor.
Micro Magic intends to offer its new RISC-V design to customers using an IP licensing model. The simplicity of the design—RISC-V requires roughly one-tenth the opcodes that modern ARM architecture does—further simplifies manufacturing concerns, since RISC-V CPU designs can be built in shuttle runs, sharing space on a wafer with other designs.
With that said, it would be an enormous undertaking to port—for example—an entire smartphone ecosystem, such as commercial Android, to a new architecture. In addition to building the operating system itself—not just the kernel, but drivers for all hardware from GPU to Wi-Fi to LTE modem, and more—third-party app developers would need to recompile their own applications for the new architecture as well.
We're also still taking a pretty fair amount of Micro Magic's claims at face value. While we've seen a screenshot of an 8,200 CoreMark score, and we've seen a 69mW power reading, it's not entirely clear that the power reading was representative of the entire benchmark run.
Still, this is an exciting development. Not only does the new design appear to perform well while massively breaking efficiency records, it's doing so with a far more ideologically open design than its competitors. The RISC-V ISA—unlike x86, ARM, and even MIPS—is open and provided under royalty-free licenses.

Many entrepreneurs in the legal cannabis space have meandering, almost mythic origin stories of how they ultimately landed in the marijuana industry.
Chris Yang is one of those dreamers.
As a biochemistry major at the University of Southern California, Yang surprised himself when he instead started leaning toward organic chemistry classes and labs. After a stint in Shanghai working for Pfizer, where he worked with Viagra, Robitussin, and other brands, he moved to Taiwan to secure a masters degree in hospital management.
But Yang later clashed with what he saw as that industry's profit-over-health-care values and returned to Los Angeles, where he taught himself to cook while watching YouTube videos. His career in the kitchen truly started while entertaining Instagram influencers at his home with creatively extravagant five-course meals, thus boosting his own social media presence. Later, he used his thriving Instagram profile as his only resume to cook at Marina del Rey's now-shuttered Paiche, a seafood-centric Peruvian hotspot from chef Ricardo Zarate.
These days, Yang is still carefully juggling his disparate passions, including a tech startup play for property management firms. His primary focus, however, remains in the kitchen—only now he's cooking with a new herb, throwing one of southern California's most celebrated cannabis-infused pop-up dinners once a month.
"These dinners are a lot trickier when there's weed in evolved," Yang said recently from his Los Angeles home. "Like with any of these normal, non-cannabis pop-ups, the challenge is being able to do everything with a level of consistency and on a regular basis. It's logistical coordination—how to house these events and have the kitchen needed to cook for and serve 30-60 people, and those are all challenges we need to work with.
"Then you need to find the 30-60 people to come out and pre-buy tickets and show up on time—and finding that clientele is hard," Yang continued. "With a restaurant you find a good location and put a sign up, but this is still underground, so you have to actively be marketing and talking to people all of the time.
Yang's monthly parties operate under the Pop Cultivate banner and include walk-in apps, weed-infused cocktails, and five sit-down courses. Two of the courses are infused with psychoactive cannabinoid THC, and Yang's desserts are generally infused with a healthy serving of THC's non-psychoactive sibling CBD, "which has the medicinal benefits and gives you some mental clarity and alertness," says Yang.
Each dinner is paired with a different artist, who displays their work all over the makeshift dining room and also creates a new piece as the evening progresses. Most of Yang's customers are "doctors and accountants and other white collar workers," he says, and his next few dinners include the barbecue-centric Taste of Summer on Memorial Day Weekend as well as dinners on June 24 and July 29.
The most common questions customers ask are about dosing: "How high will this meal make me?" Each course of drinks and food can be ordered individually sans marijuana, and around 20 percent of Yang's customers generally opt for uninfused meals—though about half of them change their minds at some point in the evening. Those with higher tolerances can supplement the infused courses with weed-packed nonalcoholic cocktails available at the bar throughout the night, and the Pop Cultivate space also includes a bring-your-own smoking section.
Yang's dinners straddle two very different worlds—Los Angeles' trendy $100-a-plate fine dining scene as well as the city's explosive D.I.Y. renaissance, which is currently benefitting from a migration of artists and creatives fleeing the "billionaire playground" of San Francisco.
Pop Cultivate's events also straddle the semi-legal reality of pop-up dining and the fully illegal world of unlicensed drug distribution. California voters overwhelmingly said yes to recreational pot in November's election, but those rules and regulations are still being written—and the specific laws regarding the non-retail distribution and social consumption of cannabis aren't the legislative priorities figuring out retail sales and commercial and personal cultivation are.
But Pop Cultivate has never had to fight the law, and Yang is careful to do what he can to stay in line with the most common operating procedures for these kinds of not-quite-legal events.
Yang and his once-a-month team of cooks, hosts, servers, and helpers are also struggling with the current business model's inability to scale. At Yang's most recent Pop Cultivate dinner, a dreamy late-April gathering, his team hustled to serve a record 70 customers—"but a decent-sized restaurant can serve 70 customers on any Friday or Saturday night," Yang told me. "Our number one concern right now is to get frequency and volume up, to move from doing these monthly to doing them weekly.
Yang will soon move his Pop Cultivate dinners from a container yard in the downtown Los Angeles arts district to a new undisclosed space near his alma mater USC. In an attempt to fill out his business offerings, Yang is also expanding Pop Cultivate's cannabis empire beyond these culinary events.
Yang's is a quintessential L.A. story, one that is as cinematic as it is unexpected: A scientist moves abroad and goes corporate, only to return to California and his artistic roots to create an empire in a booming—if not-yet-legal—industry.


BMW, the renowned German luxury automotive marque, has revealed the first impressions of it's much hyped X4 Concept Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV), just days ahead of the Shanghai Motor Show. The initial pictures indicate that the BMW X4 Concept could perhaps be the company's most stylish crossover model till date. The futuristic SAV is expected to be unveiled in front of the global auto industry at the Shanghai Motor Show, which is to be held in the last week of April 2013. Accordingly, most of the devoted automobile aficionados will be keeping their fingers crossed with the impending showcase of BMW X4 Concept in Shanghai.
From exterior appearance, the BMW X4 crossover derives its design cues similar to the elder sibling X6. The Concept version has the same low slung silhouette of BMW X6 luxury SAV and has captured the essence of a saloon in a classy manner. Further, the X4 design depicts a clear design link between the BMW X3 compact crossover and the 4 Series Coupe Concept, and the trio has a common integrated LED pattern in the headlamps that flows nicely into the grille.
Speaking of under-the-hood specifications of the BMW X4 Concept, the stunning crossover is expected to share engines with the X3 little sibling, just like X6 shares X5 power mills. Therefore, the BMW X4 Concept could come assimilated with 2.0 litre and 3.0 litre engines rated with peak power outputs close to 180 bhp and 250 bhp, respectively. A top end model of the X4 could also derive its power from a tuned 3.0 litre motor that could churn out peak power around bhp. The drivetrain installed in the BMW X4 Concept is expected to be the cutting edge xDrive system in All Wheel Drive (AWD) configuration.
BMW reveals first impressions of the X4 Concept.
As per reports, the German luxury automotive marque will be assembling its X4 model along with its siblings X3, X5 and X6 at the Spartanburg manufacturing facility based in South Carolina, United States. BMW is expected to launch the production version of X4 SAV sometime in the first half of 2014 calendar year.

Turbidimetry (the name being derived from turbidity) is the process of measuring the loss of intensity of transmitted light due to the scattering effect of particles suspended in it. Light is passed through a filter creating a light of known wavelength which is then passed through a cuvette containing a solution. A photoelectric cell collects the light which passes through the cuvette. A measurement is then given for the amount of absorbed light.

Turbidimetry can be used in biology to find the number of cells in a suspension.
Turbidity-is an expression of optical look of a suspension caused by radiation to the scattered and absorbed wavelength. Scattering of light is elastic so both incident and scattered radiation have same wavelength.
A turbidometer measures the amount of radiation that passes through a fluid in forward direction, analogous to absorption spectrophotometry.
Standard for turbidimetry is prepared by dissolving 5g of hydrazinium (2+) sulfate(N2H4H2SO4) and 50g of hexamethylenetertramine in 1liter of distilled water is defined as 4000 nephlometric Turbidity Unit(NTU)
Application
Determination of water
Clarity of pharma products and drinks
Immunoassay in lab
Turbidimetry offers little advantage than nephelometry in measurement of sensitivity in low level antigen a antibody immunoassay.
Antigen excess and matrix effects are limitations encountered

Immunoturbidimetry
Immunoturbidimetry is an important tool in the broad diagnostic field of clinical chemistry. It is used to determine serum proteins not detectable with classical clinical chemistry methods. Immunoturbidimetry uses the classical antigen-antibody reaction. The antigen-antibody complexes aggregate to form particles that can be optically detected by a photometer.

Today at CES, Samsung unveiled its new tablet lineup and its flagship 12.2-inch Galaxy Note Pro. The Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2-inch features the same chassis which is a hair thinner due to the absence of the S-Pen. The Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 and 8.4 get the same display resolution, no S-Pen and the same product design packaged in smaller form factors.
The Galaxy Note Pro boasts a beautiful WQXGA (2560×1200) touch display, a quad-Core Exynos 5 (Wifi only) or a Quad Core Snapdragon 800 (LTE version), 3 GB RAM, 32 or 64 GB of internal storage, a micro SD card slot (up to 64 GB memory expansion), 9500mAh battery, Android 4.4 Kit Kat, IR emitter, and GPS/Glonass.
Samsung launched its new stitched leather look its mobile products at IFA last September, when the Korean manufacturer introduced the Galaxy Note 3 smartphone and the Galaxy Note 10.1. The new models get the exact same form factor with the same finish. Overall, the new design language is very stylish compared to the previous generation of Galaxy products whose plastic feel looked cheaper.
At only 750 g (Wifi only, 753 g 3G/LTE), the sleek body feels very light in the hand despite the large 12.2-inch display.
At the top, on the left side you will find the power button, the volume rocker, and the IR emitter in the middle.
On the right side, at the top you will be able to slide out the S-Pen, which is located right above the loudspeaker grid. The USB 3.0 port is in the middle and close to the bottom corner you will find the microSD slot and the SIM slot.
On the left side the audio jack 3.5 mm is placed at the top just above the left speaker grid.
The large 12.2-inch display with the WQXGA (2560×1200) resolution is gorgeous and delivers bright and high contrasted images. The user interface is fluid, despite the large number of pixels the system has to move around (about 4 million), thanks to the powerful processor.
I briefly tried the video playback using a file locally stored in the image gallery. I was impressed by the audio quality and the powerful sound coming out of the two speakers placed on both side of the tablet. Thanks to the WQXA resolution and its 4 million pixels, the image quality is stunning.
Samsung with its "pro" lineup aims at bringing the efficiency of the PC to the tablet which is more of a content consumption device than a productive tool. The new digital keyboard now features additional keys such as the Tab key, page up and down and provide the ability to copy/paste suing the CTRL+C and CTRL+V keys, an option that regular tablets do not offer. Additionally, the haptic feedback make it feel more like a computer keyboard. The large size provides a very comfortable typing experience.
Samsung decided to depart from the traditional Android home screen full of application icons by creating what the company calls the "magazine UX". Probably inspired by Flipboard and the Microsoft Metro UI, the home screen is now divided in large rectangular zones, from where users can select the content or applications they need to launch.
One of the key differentiators of Samsung's tablets and smartphones is the multi window and multitasking feature. Now it is possible to have four applications simultaneously, compared to before where split screen allowed only for two. You can access the multi window tray by swiping left from the right edge of the screen.
Click on an application to open it in a pop up window, or drag it by swiping the icon to open it in a split screen view. When you press on the blue dot that separate the multi windows, an additional menu will appear, from there you can rearrange the order of the two, three or four windows.
Watch the video demo to see how it works.
Air Command is another unique feature from Samsung that was launched with the Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy Note 10.1 at IFA. You get access to the Air Command menu when hovering with the S Pen on any part of the display. Air Command provide four options: Action Memo, Scrapbook, Screen Write, S-finder:Pen window. Check the description in our Galaxy Note 3 Review and the video demo in the hands-on.
With productivity in mind, Samsung offers a good remote desktop feature that allows people to directly edit their Office Document on their PC from the tablet. Remote PC features a split screen from where can move around files and folders in their computer from the Galaxy Note Pro. Samsung demoed the feature live, but I could not videotape it.
With the Galaxy Note Pro, you will get 6 month of free WebEx videoconferencing service, which allows for on screen collaboration during a video call.
Samsung claims that the Galaxy note include $700 value of premium content from partners such as Dropbox, Bloomberg, Evernote, LinkedIn, New York Times, Blurb, Live Sport TV and Autodesk (Sketch Book Pro ).
MIMO, Multiple-Input Multiple-Output, is a technology that uses multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver to improve data transfer performance. One of the first tablet to integrate MIMO was the Kindle Fire HD.
The new Galaxy Note Pro and Galaxy Tab Pro tablets do not offer any surprises in term of product design or innovation. However the hardware performance and the display are top of the line and it provides a set of new software features that will certainly help to make the device more useful for work.

Top 10 Android Smartphones Under Rs 20,000 (July 2015)
India has a huge market for mid-budget smartphones. The reason is because it is affordable to most of the people. In this budget the company's are trying to provide higher end specs for their devices at a lower price. In this buying guide I am not covering all the features of the phone. I will highlight only the main features, pros and cons. Here is a list of the best 10 Android Smartphones under Rs.20,000 in India.
#10. Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo was released in February last year. The smartphone has a 5.5 inch HD AMOLED screen Quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex A7 & dual-core 1.7 GHz Cortex A15 CPU, 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage which can be expanded using a MicroSD card. The phone has a Mali-T624 GPU and the gaming performance of the phone is really good. The phone sports a 8 MP rear and 2 MP front shooters. The camera's are good, but in this price range you can get better performing phone cameras. The phone has a good 3100mAh battery which gives pretty good battery backup. The phone runs on Android 4.4.2 Kitkat. The phone has a good leather textured back cover like the Note 3 which gives a premium feel to the phone. The main highlight of the phone is it's S pen. It's really very smart and has lots of functionalities. It has air command too. As the performance is concerned, the phone performs really well. But compared to the performance of other devices in this price range, the performance is just OK. Another problem is its user inference. The Touchwiz is laggy and really affects the phone's performance. Note 3 Neo has 4G LTE support too. This phone is exclusively for the Galaxy Note fans. Galaxy Note Neo was priced at 36k. But the price has decreased and is now priced at 22k.
#09. Sony Xperia Z Ultra
The Sony Z Ultra is an old flagship phone from Sony. The phone was released on July 2013.
The phone has a very large 6.4 inch Full HD display. The phone is powered by a Snapdragon 800 processor and has 2 GB RAM. The phone comes with an internal storage of 16 GB which can be expanded using a MicroSD card. The GPU inside is Adreno 330 and performs really well. The phone has a 8 MP and 2 MP rear and front cameras. The phone has a 3050mAh battery and has 4G LTE support. The phone now runs on Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. The main highlight of this phone is its display and it is water proof. It is IP58 certified -It can resist water over 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. The 6.4 inch display is good for watching movies, but the phone is very hard to carry. It won't fit in your pocket unless it's too big. The camera performance is good, but lacks a led flash. From the users review the performance of the phone is good but not great. The phone is very slim at 6.5mm thickness. Another good feature of this phone is that, pencils or pens can be used to write or draw on this device like the S pen on the Galaxy Note. In terms of batter in a paper it has a 3050mAh battery. This sounds good, but the case is different. For a 6.4 inch Full HD display, a 3050mAh batter is not enough. Thus the battery backup is just average.
The phone was priced at 19k till May 2015, but now the price has dropped really down to 14k.
#08. Samsung Galaxy S4
The Samsung Galaxy S4 was released on April 2013. The phone features a Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 processor 2 GB RAM.

In the rear there is a 13 MP camera and a 5 MP front facing camera. Both are capable of recording videos at 1080p. The camera performs very well. It takes good sharp photos. The color reproduction is good and the low light photos were good. The phone has NFC connectivity in the LTE model. The phone packs a 2950mAh battery which gives a very good battery backup. The phone also has the ultra power saving mode, which extends the battery life. You can even use the phone while wearing a glove. The phone runs on Android 4.4.4 with the Samsung's improved Touchwiz UI. As mentioned the Touchwiz brings lots of extra features to the phone. One of them is the multi-window option. The gaming performance of this device is also pretty good. It does not heat up very easily. The phone has no USB OTG support and don't have an Auto brightness sensor. The main pro of the phone is its camera, display, battery performance and the design. The design feels premium and has only 7.3 mm thickness. The phone has a metal like finish and comes in premium colors. The phone has sensors like proximity, Accelerometer and Ambient light sensor, but lacks a compass and gyro.
The phone is now priced at 18k. In this price range the phone offers decent performance in all areas.

The phone comes with a 8 MP rear camera and a 1.3 MP front camera. The camera performance is not good as compared to its competitors. The rear cam can record videos at 1080p.

What is 3D Printing ?
3D Printing 3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM) is any of various processes for making a three-dimensional object of almost any shape from a 3D model or other electronic data source primarily through additive processes in which successive layers of material are laid down under computer control.A 3D printer is a type of industrial robot. Early AM equipment and materials were developed in the 1980s. They were expensive and most required special handling. The names 3D printing and additive manufacturing did not yet have currency as umbrella terms for the field; each AM technology usually went by its own name. In 1984, Chuck Hull of 3D Systems Corp, invented a process known as stereolithography employing UV lasers to cure photopolymers. Hull also developed the STL file format widely accepted by 3D printing software, as well as the digital slicing and infill strategies common to many processes today. Also during the 1980s, the metal-sintering forms of AM were being developed

The Abrahamic Covenant
A History of Christian Zionism
Israel Answers
For more than 3,000 years, the Land of Israel has been the beating heart of the Jewish faith. The values that underlie modern civilization emerged from its soil. Since Israel was re-established as a modern state in 1948, it has served as a beacon of justice and democracy, an engine of innovation, and a critical ally for free nations.
An Everlasting Covenant
The Jewish people's sacred connection to the Land of Israel has remained unbroken since God bequeathed it to them in his covenant with Abraham. Despite many expulsions and millennia of persecution, Jews have maintained a continuous presence in the land - and their eternal capital, Jerusalem.

Why do Christians support Israel?
A Beacon of Justice and Democracy
The State of Israel is the Middle East's only democracy, providing the full rights of citizenship for people of all cultures and faiths. Israeli law protects the free exercise of religion - and ensures that all faiths have unimpeded access to its many holy sites. The country is home to a lively free press, vibrant civil society, and independent judicial system. Like all Western democracies, Israel struggles to ensure socio-economic equality for all of its minority populations. However, Jews and Arabs; Christians and Muslims; and men and women all participate in public life, contributing to the rich tapestry of Israeli culture.
When Israel unified Jerusalem in 1967, the city's holy sites were opened to all peoples for worship. Learn how a united Jerusalem has thrived under Israeli control.

An Engine of Innovation
In just 65 years, Israel has transitioned from a developing nation to a "startup nation" with one of the most advanced, technology-driven economies in the world. Israel is on the cutting edge in science, medicine, high-tech, and agriculture. As a leader in disaster relief and international development, the Jewish State continues to change lives in all corners of the globe - from aiding earthquake victims in Haiti to bringing agricultural technology to Africa.

Fighting Delegitimization
Since its founding more than 65 years ago, the State of Israel has not known one day of peace. Israel's enemies have sought to use all available means to destroy and demoralize it: from military invasions to terrorism to economic and cultural boycotts. The Jewish State now faces a new and growing threat. A global campaign of delegitimization tries to demonize Israelis, deny its government the right to defend its citizens, and subject the country to a double-standard not applied to any other state.

They stage provocations designed to cause violence and embarrass Israel in the public arena.
They use the voting dynamics of international organizations like the UN to pass resolutions against Israel that do not reflect the facts on the ground.
Increasingly, they are targeting Christians and other faith communities with false and misleading information.

1964 Dodge Polara

Model Polara
Polara 1964
Title Status --
Back in the early '60s, you could buy a turn-key racecar from your local Dodge dealer, and it would look a lot like this 1964 Dodge Polara 500 convertible. Of course, the full-race machines were incredibly rare, but the guys who knew their hardware also knew that when they saw a car that looked like this industrial-strength Mopar, they should probably steer well clear of it lest they get badly hurt.
Make no mistake, this no-nonsense Polara carries what appears to be its original 383 V8 engine, a more user-friendly version of the many venerable Mopar big blocks. It also offers the same bare-knuckle street fighter look that screams high performance in a very low-key way, like it's almost contradicted by the easy-going nature of the vintage droptop feel. The bodywork is very straight, almost like it rolled out of the factory just a few years ago, and it shows off the work of guys who knew their stuff. They didn't have to work very hard since this was a clean, dry car with no major issues to handle. It has been refinished in its original code P Ruby Red, so maybe it's not designed to be subtle, but even in red, most guys won't know what's coming until it's too late. Sure, the paint's not perfect and there are some imperfections that can be found upon closer examination, but you can't argue with the curb appeal of this dialed-in, driver-quality droptop. Chrysler's turbine look was in fashion in 1964, and they retained all the chrome and stainless trim on this one to enhance the sleeper look. To guys who know what they're looking at, this car is gorgeous. As for everyone else, well, don't say we didn't warn you.
Just because it was built to pound the pavement doesn't mean it wasn't also comfortable and stylish inside, where a recently refreshed red-and-white interior absolutely steals the show. With big-car comfort and sporty twin buckets flanking a stock center console, it balances just the right amount of flash with no-nonsense attitude. The interior is in excellent condition, with fresh red seat covers contrasted with white inserts, matching door panels, plush red carpets, and a surprisingly well-preserved dash pad. The intricate gauges are original and in fantastic condition, highlighted by the beautiful dash bezel that expands from end-to-end, and the chrome accents around the gauges, switches, and toggles add the perfect amount of bling inside. The factory center console houses a sporty shifter for the automatic transmission below, which really emphasizes the killer vibe of this Polara, and the big, original steering wheel was beautifully finished in matching paint and chrome, and it feel amazing in the hands of the driver. Amazingly, the original AM/FM radio is still in the center of the dash (and it works!), the rear seat looks completely untouched, and the beautifully finished trunk features a full-sized spare and correct replacement plaid mats.
The engine under the long hood is believed to be the car's original 383 cubic inch V8, and the big block makes this Polara feel smooth and effortless in everything it does. It's one of Chrysler's most durable engines and performance is extremely entertaining. Looking pretty stock save for the shiny chrome dress-up kit and updated plug wires, it's a reliable runner that seems as tight today as it did decades ago. Thanks to impeccable care throughout the decades and since this car was refreshed, the engine bay is really clean, and the condition of the paint-matched inner fenders and firewall speaks volumes about the easy life this car has led. A 727 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic transmission doesn't seem to mind munching on all that torque, and with highway-friendly gears in the 8.75-inch rear, it seems that this car is a bit of a sleeper, too. The floors are impressively solid, the newer H-pipe dual exhaust system has a great sound, and those chrome wheel covers with super-cool spinners are wrapped in whitewall radials that are the perfect rolling stock for this neat Mopar.
They say that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but this one is beautiful to the guy holding the time slips. A great droptop cruiser that still has the moves. Call today!

what was lost
What Was Lost by Catherine O'Flynn
In the early 1980s, an eleven-year-old girl called Kate Meaney disappeared from Green Oaks, a West Midlands shopping centre built on the site of the factory that once provided work for an entire town. Twenty years later, exhausted security guard Kurt and disillusioned record shop worker Lisa see a girl who meets Kate's description wandering the Green Oaks service corridors at night with her detective's notebook and her faithful companion, Mickey the toy monkey. Surely this lonely figure can't be the same child?
What Was Lost by Catherine O'Flynn is, as the title suggests, a novel about loss - the loss of loved ones, the loss of oneself, and the loss of industry under Thatcher that saw Green Oaks built on the site of the factory that was previously the economic heart of the community. And yet, despite the underlying sadness that pervades the book, it's also very funny. The details and dialogue are beautifully observed, particularly through the young eyes and ears of Kate, and despite Kate's vulnerability - I warn you that your longing to reach into the pages of the book and rescue her will be almost painful - there is not the tiniest hint of sentimentality to be found.
While Kate Meaney's unexplained disappearance is central to the story, What Was Lost - rather like Belinda Bauer's Snap or Joanna Cannon's The Trouble With Goats And Sheep - is a book with a mystery at its heart that is somehow not really a mystery novel; the mystery drives the story forward but it's essentially a means of exploring the interconnected lives of people affected, one way or another, by the same thing. In Snap this is the unsolved murder of a mother of three, and in The Trouble With Goats and Sheep it's the disappearance of a neighbour from a suburban street in the 1970s. In What Was Lost, it's not so much Kate's disappearance from Green Oaks but the presence of Green Oaks itself, which is not just a location but almost a character in its own right. The shopping centre - the sort of location most of us would probably consider about as blandly neutral as it gets - feels like an increasingly toxic presence as the story unfolds, its influence almost an entirely negative one - in contrast with the presence of Kate, whose character is bright, hopeful, resourceful and kind, Green Oaks becomes symbolic of everything that is harsh, draining and disappointing about modern life.
I'm writing this review a full month after finishing What Was Lost, and yet I've found myself thinking about the book almost every day. It's an absorbing, funny, multilayered read that's also oddly unsettling at times - I notice that there's an endorsement on the cover from Jonathan Coe, and it reminded me of his work at times. It gave me a lot to think about, and I'm sure I'll return to it for a second reading.

Below is a list of businesses which provide Publishers - Books services. If you do not see your business in the list, you can submit it for addition to this list. Adding your business will feature your listing above Standard listings.
When books are published by a small number of very large book publishers, but thousands of smaller book publishers exist in Okemos.Many small and medium-sized book publishers specialize in a specific area. The publisher takes responsibility for the publication in a way that a mere printer or a shopkeeper does not.
In Okemos thousands of authors have created their own publishing companies, and self-published their own works. The book publishing industry, the publisher of record for a book is the entity in whose name the book's ISBN is registered. The publisher of record may or may not be the actual publisher. The book, whilst nominally published, is almost impossible to obtain through normal channels such as bookshops, often cannot be special-ordered and will have a notable lack of support from its publisher, including refusals to reprint the title.

Grimaldi orders five more ammonia-ready car carriers
by Mariska Buitendijk | Jan 18, 2023 | Emissions, Energy transition, Marine fuels, News, Ship propulsion, Shipping
Grimaldi Group has ordered five new ammonia-ready pure car & truck carrier (PCTC) vessels, with an option for another two units, with subsidiaries of China State Shipbuilding Corporation Limited (CSSC). The shipping company placed a similar order for five such vessels just two months ago.
Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Company Limited (SWS) and China Shipbuilding Trading Company Limited (CSTC), subsidiaries of CSSC will build the vessel. In total, Grimaldi has now invested over USD 630 million in these ammonia-ready vessels.

New type of engine
With a length of 200 metres, a width of 38 metres and loading capacity of 9000 CEU (car equivalent unit), the new builds have been designed to transport electric and fossil fuel vehicles (cars, SUVs, vans, etc.) as well as other types of heavy rolling freight (up to 250 tonnes).
They will be among the first ships equipped with a new type of electronic engine whose specific consumption is one of the lowest in its category. Thanks to their emission abatement systems, the new units will comply with the most stringent limits established at international level for CO2, NOx and SOx emissions.
Ammonia-ready
In addition, the new ships will have the RINA (Italian Naval Register) Ammonia Ready class notation, which certifies that they may be converted for the use of ammonia as an alternative, zero-carbon fuel. They will also be designed for cold ironing with shoreside supply of electricity (where available), which constitutes a green alternative to the consumption of fossil fuels during port stays.
The vessels ordered represent an evolution of the 6700-CEU car carriers delivered to the Grimaldi Group between 2016 and 2018 (Grande Baltimora, Grande New York and Grande Halifax). In addition to the significant increase in capacity, thanks to design innovations and state-of-the-art engines and systems, their CO2 emissions per cargo unit transported index will be 27 per cent lower than that of previous generation of ships.
Upon delivery, expected between 2025 and 2026, the new vessels will enhance the Grimaldi Group's services between Europe, North Africa, the Near and Far East.
Previous five-vessel order
The new order was signed just over two months after the Group's latest order for the construction of five ammonia-ready PCTC vessels (with an option for another five units). This testifies to the company's trust in the growth of the global automotive industry, and notably of the electric car segment.
Moreover, this agreement with Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Company Limited and China Shipbuilding Trading Company Limited comes at a very important time for the Chinese maritime industry, in light of the recent entry of the China Shipowners' Association (the national association representing owners, operators and managers of merchant ships) in the International Chamber of Shipping, the body that represents over eighty per cent of the world's merchant tonnage.

England On Fire
A enchanted wonderland to change the way you see England, not for showing anything new, but what has been there all along.
Thomas Overlook on April 28, 2022
John Ruskin made the case for art as a language. Crafted visual images are more than frozen icons: they articulate an inner voice. Lines, space and perspective are its grammar, colour its syntax. From his perspective, it's what you depict that counts: "It is not by the mode of representing and saying, but by what is represented and said, that the respective greatness of either the painter or the writer is to be finally determined."
But not everything is about 'greatness'. While art may tell a story, Ruskin is telling his story about art, and as with any story, the narrative unfolds according to who gets to do the telling. England On Fire: A Visual Journey Through Albion's Psychic Landscape tells a different tale, or rather the same one through different voices.
In this superb collection curated by Stephen Ellcock, visual art tells another story of what it means to be English. Mat Osman provides written commentary that unpacks the images' latent meaning, providing a verbal correlate to their visual narrative. Like Ruskin, he too sees poetry in the visual, a "language that speaks to England's subconscious and which we understand in some kind of deep, pre-verbal core".
Artist unknown, Astronomy – a Meteor in the Night Sky, 1868
Osman asks us to consider the conventional English self-image: proper, well-managed, controlled, and rational. This is an image of imperial riches and hard-won technologies; it's an image of refinement and self-regulation. But England On Fire is a visual journey through a suppressed history, from forest revelry to surreal enchantment to urban alterity. "Which Coventry Kahlo, which Plymouth Picasso should be hanging in the National Gallery?" Osman asks, following Thomas Gray's silent rebellion centuries ago in a country churchyard.
Cast by Osman as a 'visual Saturnalia', England On Fire features lesser-known pieces from canonical figures, like Blake and Turner, but the heart of the book is in its multitude of works — some achieving their first reprint in this very edition — from neglected artists, some of them anonymous, ranging from the thirteenth century to the present moment (though most range from the late eighteenth century on). Here we see work by nameless monastics and immigrant artists: portraitists from London's black gay underground, surrealists, pagans and, I dare say, more than a few madmen, all of them brilliant. Stag-horned beings, otherworldly solstice gatherings, stone-dotted landscapes, nature reclaiming human spaces, immigrant celebrations, homoerotic human-animal hybrids, evocations of folk magic dredged up from the raw earth; these images conjure England's mythical past to remind us that the present too is a myth.
Christopher Noulton, Father Figure, 2012
Each section offers an interpretation of England — its history, lore and identity — from a particular thematic perspective. Some of these thematics have clear parameters (images focusing on water, for instance) while others remain stubbornly (and fittingly, in the case of Chapter 3, titled "Rebellious Nature") resistant to clear boundaries. Osman's textual annotations are, by his admission, tangential, but then so too is this book. It's a jaunt through the environs rather than a trek to the capital: a magnificent view of the castle from the pauper's square, though one that transforms the castle's image and meaning. Liberian-British artist Lina Iris Viktor, for instance, photographs herself against a gold acrylic backdrop to recreate the self-presentation of a medieval monarch. As Osman reminds us, "English words have fallen like rain across the globe and then washed the world's riches back into England's gutters". It is fitting, then, that the gutter be made so glamorous.
England On Fire frequently counterpositions the old and the new, often juxtaposing pieces separated by a century or more on adjacent pages, linking them through theme, colour and subject position. Ellcock pairs Nicola Tyson's Bird Call (2021) with William O'Keefe's A Vision, Vide, the Monster of Slaughter, the Distress of Nations; Deluge of Blodd (1796). O'Keefe's is a disturbing vision of war: a politician-as-monster floating above a literal sea of blood. Tyson's is of a simple bird, and yet both share a disquieting set of similarities: the contrast of red and blue to differentiate flesh from sky, the sharp oral protrusion, and the sheer menace of the familiar. In a book that is all about change — about replacing linearity with aimless meandering — we get a subtle hint of where continuity may lie. A similar sense of terror embedded within the familiar — one of Ellcock's favourite central tendencies — is in Sutapa Biswas' Housewives with Steak-knives (1984–5), an awe-ful (or awe-inspiring?) rendering of the Hindu goddess Kali transplanted into a domestic immigrant setting. This incendiary, anti-colonial domestic avenger both haunts and inspires hope for change. Ellcock not only rereads the past, but foretells alternate futures.
J. G. Keulemans, Mother Carey and her Chickens, 1877
Ultimately, the themes here allow us to do what these artists have done for themselves: define our own ways forward. The same essential elements — stones, pathways, water — that guide these artworks remind us that any pathway by definition leads us, that is, coerces us to follow the feet of those that have gone trudging before us. Indeed, there is no wrong way to read this book, only your way.
Osman suggests that England On Fire reflects not some wistful moment of rebellion, but rather "the nation's true nature", the "very English rebellion of the nameless many against the privileged few". This book too is a sort of enchanted wonderland, not the sort one finds in some mythical grove pulled from the storybooks, but that found under our noses, in the alleys, along the backstreets, or in the long-forgotten archives. Ellcock and Osman bring these images into blazing life, not by glorifying them but by giving them the space and the dignity to speak for themselves.
Osman, in reference to his homeland, offers the affectionate demarcation "Albion unhinged". You may agree or disagree, but one thing is certain: England On Fire will change the way you see England, not for showing anything new, but for showing you what has been there all along.

Battle For The Top Four: Free The Animals- Ugo Njubigbo
Brila 0	April 18, 2017 9:42 am
Tried chasing a mirage before and get frustrated? Once I heard a man say, the most pathetic but dreadful sight he's witnessed is a beast chained in a cage. Every team sports in the world requires every jigsaw of it's puzzle to function and achieve a desired result, every player, staff, steward, sometimes the crowd that shuffle into the stadiums doing the cheering and chanting play their roles. Nonetheless, when the lights fade out of the arena one man gets all the plaudits when the team wins and the criticisms when the team fails to perform, he is; the gaffer, the manager, the boss, the coach. All the pressure, the tactics, the shouting are his to contain and manage.
Whether a game is won, lost or drawn, it's him, the gaffer that knows more. Not always about the skills of his players, more of his tactical awareness. More about knowing who's stronger and when in particular, more about urging his team to play on, stay in shape, keep the balance or keep pressing. More about discerning the atmosphere. It's always him that relives every miss, every save, every goal through a grueling 90 minutes, even more. It's him that knows when to rave, rant, or rally his team. He knows his job is to lead his lads every second of the game.
But once his team sets their feet on the pitch, he has to cede. The white lines are his boundary, his chains, the technical area his cage, like a beast. Hungry for purpose but how tactful in relating his burning coal desires becomes his rage. His players like pawns now have their roles to play out of his prior tutelage, they now act out the scenes rehearsed in his scripts. Every match is the gaffer's battle in a season hard fought.
Slowly the curtains are drawing to a close in the Barclays English Premier League, the weekly fights and swipes at oppositions are still on as men who are paid to taunt each balance their books before business closes. Only this time, it has been a longer season with lots of twists and turns, one of it's kind, a "world championship of managers" like Arsenal's loanee at Bournemouth Jack Wilshere puts it in his own words. The league, like a stove is getting hotter as the weeks go by, Arsenal under manager Wenger are on the verge of missing out of the top four for the first time. Tottenham for the first time in over 20 years are looking more likely to finish above their North London neighbors. Liverpool: the kops under klopp are already experiencing a renaissance, looking to qualify for Champions league with ease this season. Manchester United, currently on the most unbeaten run across Europe's top 5 leagues are lurking behind top four with 2 games in hand. Pep's Manchester City are also in the mix. Run away league leaders in the first half of the season, Chelsea have seen their lead cut down to 4 points in recent weeks and the heat is on. Everton, this season looking to qualify for Europe and have not stopped the chase and are no push overs.
The 2016/2017 Barclays English Premier League season will go down as one for the managers. One where final weeks tactics and style of play will go a long way in this journey of the top four.
Who makes the top four remains to be seen. Will it be the passing possession attacking football of Wenger and the gunners, the high press total possession football of Pep and the citizens, the solid defending but counter attacking strong tackling style of Jose with his big boys, the high press all out attack but water tight defensive set up of Pochettino and Spurs, the lightening quick transitional attacking style of Klopp and the kops. Who makes Europe at end of the road is what we live to see when all the animals are set free.
Until then, let's have one for a lifetime.

CBS: What's New for Fall 2009
Posted by Will Harris (09/06/2009 @ 4:50 pm)
Accidentally On Purpose (Mon., Sept. 21 @ 8:30 PM, CBS)
The competition: "Dancing with the Stars" (ABC) "Heroes" (NBC), "House" (Fox), "One Tree Hill" (The CW)
Starring: Jenna Elfman, Grant Show, Jon Foster, Ashley Jensen, Lennon Parham, Nicolas Wright
Producers: Gail Berman ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Angel"), Gene Stein ("Less Than Perfect"), and Claudia Lonow ("The War at Home")
Network's Description: Billie is a single woman who finds herself "accidentally" pregnant after a one-night stand with a much younger guy, and decides to keep the baby… and the guy. A newspaper film critic, Billie is barely surviving a humiliating breakup with her charming boss, James, who's still trying to resume their relationship. Suddenly expecting a child with her "boy toy," Zack, Billie and Zack make an arrangement: to live together platonically. Billie's party girl best friend Olivia, and Abby, her conventional, younger married sister, eagerly look forward to the new addition and offer their own brands of advice and encouragement. But when Zack and his freeloading friends, including Davis, start to turn her place into a frat house, Billie isn't sure if she's living with a boyfriend, a roommate, or if she just has another child to raise.
The Buzz: Elfman's been trying to mount her post-"Dharma and Greg" comeback for some time now (2006's "Courting Alex" only lasted 13 episodes), but CBS's decision to place the comedy in the midst of its Monday night line-up – and between "How I Met Your Mother" and "Two and a Half Men," no less – shows their confidence in it. Or is that desperation?
Pilot Highlight: Billie's walk of shame after what, at the time, appears to be a one-night stand.
Bottom Line: The young man / older woman dynamic obviously has potential for comedy, but this is a painfully pedestrian affair, one which feels like it never would've been made if Elfman hadn't been attached.

Starring: Jay Leno
Producers: Debbie Vickers, Larry Goitia, Jay Leno, Jack Coen, Stephanie Ross ("The Tonight Show with Jay Leno")
Network's Description: Marking a new era in television, Jay Leno, recently named America's Favorite TV Personality by the 2009 Harris Poll, moves from late night to primetime on September 14 when his series becomes the first-ever entertainment program to be stripped across primetime on broadcast network television. The series promises more comedy in the 10 o'clock hour and will showcase many of the features that have made Leno America's late-night leader for more than a dozen years.
The Buzz: About as mixed as buzz can be. This is the most controversial maneuver in the past several decades of television history, a Hail Mary by the people at the Peacock. It's highly possible that the people who've abandoned "The Tonight Show" since the tall, skinny Irish kid took over have just decided to go to bed early for a change and are fully prepared to start watching their old buddy, Jay, in his new locale. Then again, maybe they won't. It's a crazy crap shoot, this series, and all that us critics can do is sit back and see what the viewers decide to do.
Pilot Highlight: None, obviously, due to the live nature of the show.
Bottom Line: If you like Jay Leno, you'll like the show. If you don't, you won't. It's really as simple as that. But will you watch the show? Leno has the right attitude by acknowledging outright that he doesn't expect to beat original programming, only anticipating that they'll probably start to take home the ratings gold once the reruns start. I like Leno as much as the next guy, but I like scripted dramatic programming better. For that alone, I'm not exactly rooting for him to succeed. But with that said, I'm mostly just curious to see what's going to happen.
