I was doing dishes as I listened to the story on electronic voting machines and how difficult the technology is and just caught the last piece about how having a printer print the vote is too complicated of a technology to implement because "the voter wont know if and/or what to do if the printer jams and neither would the poll worker" (paraphrased).
This is potentially the stupidest thing I've ever heard anyone utter that has at least an elementary school education.
Printer technology is pretty advanced. I am quite sure that I have seen a checker at a grocery store deal with a printer jam quite effectively as I have seen second graders do the same in their classroom. Error messages pop up. A buzzer can go off. You can be told that your vote will be confirmed on a piece of paper after you are done voting, and you don't get the print out; to go tell the poll worker who will then come with the one page directions on how to clear a printer jam and do so for you. If the poll worker is not able to fix the problem, maybe they could call someone and get help. On an error message, the computer can be told to not finish processing the vote until the printer prints a receipt successfully which can be validated by the voter pressing a button "did you get your vote printed correctly." I am pretty sure I've seen a similar technology atm of my bank that asks me basically the same thing.
If, for some reason- the voter or the poll worker, cannot manage things that we already take for granted and have used in our day-to-day lives for the past 30 years; perhaps they should not be allowed to vote or be a poll worker respectively. Or at least be given assistance to allow them to vote. In fact; I will volunteer my services to support printer jams during the next general elections. I am sure my three daughters would as well. I will set-up a toll-free phone number so that the taxpayers of the particular county where the troubled printer exists doesn't incur any additional cost. I would gladly do this for my country.
I can only imagine the strangled cries of fear and confusion the woman that uttered this feels when her washing machine load goes off balance and the machine starts buzzing or when the popcorn in her microwave is done and it beeps.
Thankfully the majority of us live in the year 2006 and have the cognitive skills to deal with a crisis such as a printer jam.

A garage door should be functional and provide ways of making its operation easier. One way of ensuring the functionality is to convert a manual door to an electric one. In as much as many homeowners would like to convert their garage doors, they do not know whether their doors qualify for the conversion or not. The fact is; not all doors can be converted from manual to electric garage doors. There are three main factors to consider before the conversion.
Doors that do not rub on the floor or their frame when moving and those that move freely and easily are candidates for the conversion. A garage door expert can rejuvenate stiff and wobbly garage doors for them to qualify for conversion. There is no limitation to the doors that can be converted as there are strategies to deal with every type of door. One strategy is to change the mechanism of doors that owners do not wish to change. Another strategy is to add a motor as a way of motorizing garage doors in poor conditions.
All roller and sectional manual garage doors can be converted to automatic doors. As for up and over doors; it depends on whether the door has tracks that run vertically, horizontally, has a canopy door, or a retractable door. Canopy doors need to be motorized if it runs smoothly or if it is modern. Retractable garage doors can also be motorized even if they are old.
Is your Garage Ready for Conversion?
For a garage door to be converted, the garage must have power. The physical conditions therein should allow for the motor to move freely without affecting the reliability. You can now say goodbye to inconvenient garage doors in South Wales; you do not have to leave your car to open your garage door again! Contact Accessgaragedoors-cardiff.co.uk for more details on garage doors in South Wales.


$24.50 – Includes the guided meditation (music and voice) PLUS a free copy of the original album (music only).
This guided meditation lasts just over an hour (if you do need a shorter meditation then there is an appropriate place to stop after about 35 minutes).Each track on the album has been created to incorporate the energy of one of the chakras… As you probably know, each chakra vibrates to the frequency of a certain color, likewise each chakra also vibrates to the frequency of a certain musical note. Each of the tracks has been created with this in mind.The guided meditation will take you by the hand and lead you into a meditation where you activate chakras one by one, you are told to imagine a ball of colored energy coming out of your chakra as it opens, You are then allowed to drift off into the music as that chakra starts to slowly open up and spin. Each track lasts about 5 minutes and then you go onto the next chakra. Once all 7 chakras have been activated the energy of the music changes and the second part of the meditation will begin.This second part of the meditation is a lot deeper, the energy now changes direction and starts to pour in through your already open chakras.
You now allow the energy to flow inwards, this time beginning with the crown chakra… With each track you then work your way back down the chakras one by one. Once you reach the root chakra with the last track of the album you should have the energy flowing up through your spine, coming back down into your crown chakra and flowing all the way back down to the root again.This meditation will completely energize you and repeated practice of this will open you up to a new level of consciousness… the benefits are endless.The Guided Meditation is available as a download only. You get two albums with the download… the meditation and also a version of the album without the voice over, just the music. If you are interested in hearing a sample from the album you can get a free download of one of the tracks by signing up to the mailing list over in the right hand column of this page.The following video should give you a sample of what it is all about.

Tesla Model S aces remarkable real-life 'Moose Test' in dark, icy road
Credit: greberte/Instagram, Tesla Owners Club Sweden/Facebook
By Simon Alvarez
Tesla's vehicles have made a name for themselves thanks to their excellent safety features, and this is evident by the impressive scores of the company's lineup in the infamous "Moose Test," which evaluates how well a car could evade a potential collision on the road. Tesla's electric cars, such as the Model 3, have even set records in the Moose Test by outperforming more expensive vehicles like the Porsche Taycan.
For a Tesla Model S owner in Sweden, the Moose Test became a rather frightening reality. While driving at night on an icy road, the Tesla owner came across an adult moose and her calves, two of which were following behind. One of the calves sprinted across the road to safety, but the other crossed the road casually. It was only moments before an imminent collision with the large animal seemed inevitable.
Fortunately for the Tesla owner, the vehicle detected the impending collision, and its driver, David, promptly swerved around the animal. Video taken from the Tesla Model S' built-in dashcam depicted the sequence of events that transpired as the moose came into view and as the Tesla swerved to avoid it. The sudden maneuver resulted in the Tesla fishtailing for a bit, though the driver was able to straighten out the vehicle quickly.
In a later post at the Tesla Owners Club Sweden Facebook group, the Model S owner noted that the experience was quite surreal. Despite coming extremely close to what could very well have been a serious accident, the Model S actually came away without any damages. "I can barely believe it to be true myself. And that I also managed it without visiting a workshop," the Model S owner wrote.
Thanks to its all-wheel-drive system, the Tesla Model S handles pretty well in the snow, especially when it's equipped with winter tires. This, together with its robust set of safety features, allows the vehicle to have the capability to react quickly and safely to any unexpected incidents on the road—including a real-life Moose Test.
Watch a video of the Model S owner's icy encounter in the video below.

Roberta Warshaw Art and Design: Something New!
A pendant using the technique, a photo by Roberta Warshaw on Flickr.
A few months ago I took an online class from Barb Fajardo called "Textured Tile Tessellations." at CraftEdu. I hadn't really tried the technique until now and this is one of my first attempts.
I have to say, it is fun for me since it is like drawing. I used to draw all the time, but hadn't been lately. I think it is a wonderful technique to add to my repertoire.
I also made some beads utilizing the technique which you can see here.
I am going to go mix up some more ivory color as we speak!
Speaking of ivory, what is your favorite mixture for this color? Everyone seems to have a favorite. I am using Julie Picarello's formula for "Jecru" here. It is 1 part ecru, 1 part translucent and 1/2 part pearl. I like the little shimmer that the pearl gives it.
Wow, this piece is gorgeous.
I love the pearl in! Such a pretty design!
This piece looks really nice. I like the beads a lot, too!


I am a 20 year old photographer from Texas specializing in seniors and wedding photography. This session is one of my favorites! I fell in love with this couple, as they were both so easy to work with. She is gorgeous and he is a firefighter, how can you not love them?! I love photographing couples that are just in complete awe of each other because I can capture it on camera, and it's wonderful. So thankful I was chosen to capture these two. They remind me why I love photography so much.
Alyssa is beyond amazing, I absolutely adore her work. Such a young, beautiful, and determined little lady! She is so much fun to work with and really made us feel comfortable, like we had been doing this for years ;D ! My fiance and I are very veryyyy happy with our engagement photos and we can not wait for her to capture our wedding<3.


Yes! I love Dr. Kracker! Ryvita is my favorite, but Dr. Kracker's stuff is a close second.
Oooh... I've never tried Ryvita... I'll keep an eye out.
I usually get the seeded spelt, and eat them with Laughing Cow cheese. I keep a package of each at work for snacks. Mmm!

I like Seeded Spelt and Three Seed (I think that's the name of #2). I eat them plain as the whole grain part of my lunch or occasionally top them w/ peanut butter or tuna salad. Hummus would be good, too.
I guess we have a Dr. Kracker fan club!
I will have to try the seeded spelt. And some of those toppings sound good!
Dr Kracker fan club -- cool!
Where do you get yours? Only place I've seen them is Whole Foods.
d: I'm liking the sound of Glory's qusadilla, and I have everything except whole wheat tortillas, may have to use the ones I have which are Diane's 98% fat free.
Glory - what size are your totillas? taco or burrito?
The Dr Kracker's sound good too. I'll have to see if they're sold around here anywhere.
On tea - I don't like iced tea, only hot and that with milk in it. I have some green tea that I'm learning to like (but hot, not cold).
And I'm with - oh, who was it? - about the lower sodium V8 - blech!!!
I have gotten mine at Whole Foods and, of all places, Target! My Target has a grocery store and that's where I first found them.
Pat - I'm the one who thinks low sodium V-8 is yuck. I'm drinking a regular large can as we speak, which I'll stick with until/unless I find a better alternative. I buy it by the case @ Costco (I think you're a Costco shopper, too, no?) and drink it w/ breakfast 5 days a week.
Any ideas for a recipe that will use up the low-sodium V-8 I have left?
Also, Pat, did you have salmon AND pasta salad or was it salmon pasta salad? If it's the latter, can you share the recipe?
I love tomatoes but for some reason, I can't stand tomato juice or V8. I like carrot juice and I've had success with other mixtures of veggies/fruit juices. I wish I knew why.
Can you cook with v8? I'd try doing that.
Ah, sorry BF, I just didn't go back to confirm who it was. Sorry. I do buy V8 by the case at Costco sometimes. I really like it, esp ice cold. And Nelie, eeewwww to carrot juice! We had friends who loved it and would bring it to us fresh. Both of us agreed - not for us! And yes, you can good with V8, many WWer's use it as a soup base.
Salmon pasta salad. It was just that little seashell pasta with left over salmon, onions, cut up snap peas, cut up orange pepper (and celery would be good, but I didn't have any), with a dressing of lf mayo, lemon juice, salt and pepper. It makes a nice cool summer dinner. I wish that you could get more shapes in whole wheat pasta. I try to buy it or at least the blended stuff, but I miss all the varieties.

No need to apologize ! That salmon salad sounds great. I'll have to try it.


The next row has three circles backed with white cotton fabric, hand quilted with white quilting thread. The pattern of flowers, vines and leaves was made in careful small stitches.
'FAMILY' Reading left to right, the family is first.
The colours of each circle were chosen to compliment the subject of the circle.
Black and gold squares are placed where the circles intersect. As with each level, the lettering style is meant to reflect the meaning of the words. The lettering was drawn with fabric pens.
'COMMUNITY' is the last on this row. Positive words which suggest the best of community life are used.
On the word melon 'activity' we can see some of the satin found on the inside yoke of this shirt. Odd that. Didn't realise the satin was there until I cut it up.
'SOCIETY' is the forth in this row. This is a real mix of the good and bad...just like the real world.
'TERRORISM' is the first circle on the forth row. There are three circles on this row. The fabric used for the background is an antique flour sack.
The spots are human blood (contributed by myself and another volunteer) ironed and washed to kill any pathogens.
Stitched with synthetic sinew, the pattern is disrupted and awkward.
The wording is warped, and the binding slashed. (I had my children write some of the words).
On the connecting black squares, the gold has been damaged using fingernail polish remover.
'GOVERNMENT/POLITICS' had a sad moment. I did not have enough fabric left from the flour sack to make a spare centre. I put the word 'government' in the centre, but made it crooked...as in crooked government.
My husband commented that it wasn't straight. I explained and he thought it wasn't crooked 'enough' to be apparent. He also pointed out that government itself wasn't a problem, that politics would be more appropriate. FINE. Got it.
The apparent problem was solved by stamping politics over government. Afterwards I found the effect appealing in some twisted way. Thankfully in this quilt there was no right or wrong way to express concepts.
'GOD' Until 'Consequences' my quilting had been predictably traditional. This art/statement quilt caught everyone (including me!) off guard.
Although I still ADORE traditional quilting, my artistic side had a way to express itself.
The colours reflect both royalty and blood.
This circle was hand quilted with gold thread. The white words painted with acrylic paints. The quilting was absent in the middle - accentuating the cross.
The area above the 'quilt' is a piece of black fabric, without batting. Tiny rays of gold thread spike out from the top circle.
'CHURCH' In the centre of the second row, is the circle of 'church'.
In colour the 'church' is a reflection of the top circle "GOD" using cotton fabrics.
Moving to the third row down we come to a less elegant fabric. The background is an old cotton work shirt, complete with stains, pockets and buttons.
'ENEMIES' - is the first of five circles in this row. This level represents humanity in it's seedier form.
The hand stitching is the same design as the rows above but more crude, with a darker thread.
Words become less tidy, the meanings darker. At the bottom of this circle the fray is beginning to show.
Uglier fabrics are introduced, as well as a lack of harmony in the colours.
In the middle of this row 'RELIGION' appears. It imitates the top circle with it's shiny self (half)...but fails.
Last on this row is 'PREDATORS'.
The paper inside the pocket is glued to the front so that it can be easily read.
Like the 'enemies' circle this is on the farthest edges. Some of the fray is visible below.
'Idolatry' is the centre of this row.
Euro, Australian, Kiwi and USA bills are shown. It apparently is illegal to pierce or damage paper currency so plastic was laid over and sewn around the bills.
The print from the flour sack is easily seen.
Black chord, weird threads and staples create a cacophony of visual confusion. The blue stitches are actual sutures begged from the emergency department. (Thank you sweetheart for breaking your leg for my quilt).
The staining is blood (steak this time) and ground in charcoal. Well-ironed then washed to ensure no pathogens and no staining the rest of the quilt... the burned holes had to be drawn around with a brown marker because the burned cotton all just dissolved.
The dirty cotton batting that is hang out is just added for effect. There are backwards sewn seams.
Finishing the edges so no threads made a mess was a little tricky, but the over-all effect hit the mark.


The message Mr C sent on his phone said 2/2 - does that mean there's also a 1/2??
Good catch and good question!
Lol - I've been looking at it & assuming I'm missing something bleeding obvious.
But them wouldn't it have said 1/2.
BTW gotta love the pink bedazzlement of that flip phone.
Lol at the idea of that phone being from the stone age! I have just unearthed mine & found the charger, 'cos I'm going to have to try it out in the name of research.
My phone is even more simplistic than that. Cheapest little phone I could buy, just so people can phone or text me if they have to. I refuse to become one of the smartphone zombies.
You must be a rare breed. I think we need to take you to the lab to study you.
And back to the topic, I think what Mr C sends is MMS(this is even shown) and the 1/2 part could be...some pic maybe? Which we didn't see yet obviously.

Looters chant 'Allahu Akbar' during Stuttgart's worst ever riots that turned the city into 'a battlefield' - as police reveal those involved were 'mainly young people with a migration background'
written by Tim Stickings
Looters shouted 'Allahu Akbar' as they ransacked shops in Stuttgart on Saturday night and most of those arrested came from a 'migrant background', it has emerged.
Yobs attacked police with stones and bottles after a German teenager was arrested for a drugs offence in clashes which quickly escalated into the city's worst-ever night of rioting.
Of the 24 people arrested, 12 were foreign nationals while three of the other 12 were German nationals with a migrant background, police announced at a press conference on Sunday.
Hans-Jürgen Kirstein, the head of a police union, told Bild that 'young people with a migration background were at the front of the riots'.
German chancellor Angela Merkel today condemned the violence as 'abhorrent' after even paramedics were attacked with bottles while trying to help an injured person.
Police say there was no sign of a political motivation, blaming alcohol and the 'party scene' for the outbreak of violence - although some have linked the riots to the anti-police protests in the United States.
Footage verified by German media showed some of the rioters chanting 'Allahu Akbar', meaning 'God is great' in Arabic, as they ran down a street during the night-time violence.
Muslim blogger Nasir Ahmad condemned the rioters for 'abusing' the phrase, saying it is meant to be 'not a call to terror, but call to prayer and peace'.
Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said today: 'Whoever has done this has turned against their city, against the people with whom they live and against the laws that protect us all.'
Stuttgart's deputy police chief Thomas Berger said that the hundreds of young looters had come from the 'party scene' and the 'Saturday night scene'.
In his 30 years as a police officer he had never seen violence like this and 'there have never been any scenes like this in Stuttgart,' he said.
Berger said the violence had erupted during a 'totally normal' encounter in which police arrested a white German teenager on suspicion of a drugs offence.
Some 200 to 300 people immediately started attacking police in 'solidarity' with the teenager, and the crowd of rioters eventually grew as high as 500, he said.
The rioters even threw bottles at paramedics who had been called to an 'emergency' at the scene, he said. German media has described the scenes as a 'battlefield'.
19 police officers were hurt and the number could yet rise because some of them may not have reported their injuries at the time, it is believed.
Police said 40 shops had been attacked while 12 police vehicles were damaged, some of them so badly that they had to be taken out of service.
Police chief Franz Lutz told a press conference that 'at the moment we can rule out a left-wing or indeed any political motivation' for the violence.
However, the 'party scene' which has re-emerged after the lifting of the coronavirus lockdown has recently seen a growing anti-police sentiment in social media posts, he said.
Police forces have been the subject of widespread anger around the world since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25.
Crowds in Stuttgart threw stones and bottles while smaller groups ran through surrounding streets breaking shop windows, according to officers.
Police said 40 businesses were vandalised and nine of them looted before the violence was finally brought under control at around 4.30am.
'These are unbelievable scenes which have left me speechless and which I've not experienced in my 46 years in the police,' Lutz said.
'There was a never-before-seen dimension of open violence against police and massive property damage,' he said.
'It is a sad day for Stuttgart and also for the police.'
Thomas Strobl, the interior minister of the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg which includes Stuttgart, said the 'pictures reaching us from America may have led to a certain aggression'.
Speaking to regional broadcaster SWR, he said authorities would respond with 'everything that the rule of law provides us with' to track down and punish the rioters.
The foreign nationals arrested included suspected rioters from Bosnia, Portugal, Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan.
German police and media have increasingly tended to state a suspect's nationality after a controversy over New Year's Eve attacks on women in Cologne in 2015, when it was not initially revealed that some of the suspects were asylum seekers.
Allegations of a cover-up helped to spur the rise of the anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, which enjoyed a rise in the polls after Merkel opened Germany's doors to a million refugees in 2015.
Stuttgart mayor Fritz Kuhn, a member of the Green party, called this weekend's attacks on police 'unacceptable'.
He said that more people were on the street on Saturday night because many clubs and discos remained closed because of coronavirus.
'One cause was likely alcohol, another the addiction to social media film clips,' Kuhn said.
Video taken on mobile phones circulated widely on social media, with police asking witnesses to upload footage that could assist their investigation.
Several police officers were injured as riots and looting were carried out in the German city of Stuttgart early on Sunday morning.

Germany: Riots and looting grip Stuttgart
The southwestern German city has seen a night of rioting and looting, with several police officers injured as hundreds of people took to the city center. Police said the situation was "completely out of control."
Several police officers have been injured during riots and looting in Stuttgart, one of Germany's biggest cities. Dozens of small groups of people threw stones at authorities early Sunday morning in the city center, smashing cars and breaking shop windows.
A police spokesperson described the scene as being "completely out of control," and said it had devolved "into real riots." Twenty people were arrested.
Police said the riots happened after police conducted checks in the city center related to suspected drug dealing. Several groups then ganged up on police and started to threaten the officers. Police were "confronted in an extremely aggressive manner, attacked and injured," a police report said.
Shortly after 3 a.m., the situation appeared to have calmed.
Authorities said several hundred people were involved in the riots, which took place in the Stuttgart's central shopping district and lasted for several hours. Several businesses and vehicles were damaged.
Later Sunday, Mayor Fritz Kuhn wrote on Twitter that he was "shocked about the violent outbreak." He said it was "a sad Sunday for Stuttgart" and that authorities would analyze the situation "thoroughly." He retweeted a video from regional public television SWR that shows some of the violence.
Dutzende gewalttätige Kleingruppen haben in der Nacht zum Sonntag in der Innenstadt von #Stuttgart randaliert und mehrere Polizisten verletzt. Inzwischen hat sich die Lage beruhigt. Die Hintergründe der Auseinandersetzung sind noch unklar. https://t.co/LZMQ1v1e01 pic.twitter.com/JJEMj2td5a

Stuttgart is the capital of the state of Baden-Württemberg, and State Premier Winfried Kretschmann also condemned what he called the "brutal outbreak of violence."
"These actions against people and things are criminal acts that should be prosecuted and brought to justice," he said. "We can't remain unmoved by the pictures from downtown Stuttgart."
Kretschmann added that his thoughts were with the injured police officers and others injured in the rioting. The facts need to clarified and the people responsible should be identified as swiftly as possible, he said.

How do I set up items to reflect properly on the P & L statement for a film production company?
I work for a small film production company where the owner is a single member LLC and all income is supposed to show up on his 1040. Our income is mostly through grants for which we need to show all expenses and apply them to cost centers. I have set up items for these expenses and they are billed to the grant from the item tab on a bill. I then make all these billable (including payroll) and invoice them to the grantor. This works great to track costs but no income shows up on the P&L. I need to show how much we have income we receive through grants but I can't set the items up as "income" when they are expenses. What am I doing wrong?
"linked it to an income account but there is no place to put in my customer name."
You use that on Invoice or Sales Receipt.
"I have a customer set up that I would send the invoice to but that is not "Grant Income"."
You Invoice or Charge someone, for whatever it is you need to Charge them.
Invoice = an Unpaid Sale for the date of the invoice and payment follows later.
Sales receipt = you are also already paid for this date = one step.
A Landlord Charges Rent on an invoice.
A Veterinarian charges for a Checkup and vaccinations, on a Sales Receipt.
I list Grant Income on an Invoice to show you just awarded me a Grant and the payment will be coming later.
But Grant Income really is only for Not For Profit entities. You donn't have Grant income on the Sched C; that is on a 990.
Your client has Income. Period.
"Also, will this work if the same grantor funds several different jobs?"
I have a Motorcycle rider Safety video. The State wants to help fund it, and a Motorcycle Dealership also wants to help fund it, and I will support it = all in thirds.
Customer name = Motorcycle Safety video project.
Now everything I enter I split and allocate by Customer:Job tracking. And it is Not Billable, if they already gave me their share of funds. but let's pretend the State only works on a Reimbursement Grant format. So their splits are marked as Billable. That way, I can invoice them their Billable Time & Costs.
And all of your items are Two Sided. The only reason to use a Single-sided (one account link) named Grant is because you are only getting that as the revenue stream. Otherwise, "billable" indicates you incur that an charge it back, such as Labor and Supplies and Fees and Rental Costs, etc.
"Finally, since I have already billed some of these expenses"
Items. You should be using Items. I described how to Fix them by making them two sided.
"do I go back and take the billed status off each transaction?"
If you billed them, they already changed to Billed. That isn't what needs to be fixed.
Here's what you stated: "This works great to track costs but no income shows up on the P&L."
And that is specifically what I answered. Edit your Items, make them two sided, and let the program Move existing data for you, when you try to Save that change. Please look at the attachments I provided and carefully reread that earlier input.
Great...I understand the two sided transactions and that will help tremendously. Sorry I unintentionally said expense when I meant item...I do use items. Thanks again!

One of Virginia's main projects is the ESR-led work for the Centre for Integrated Biowaste Research (CIBR). The project involves working with iwi, communities, local councils, engineers and scientists.
"It's a collaborative project that draws upon local knowledge and expertise to build appropriate solutions for managing biowastes," Virginia says.
She says understanding social values and practices is important, especially for how we best manage things like biowastes which are mostly human-generated wastes like sewage, food waste, chemicals, and household products that go down the drain. Some of Virginia's work in this area is also focused on raising awareness of waste with schools and communities.
"What I enjoy about this project is that the work with communities helps guide and inform the science that we do. Also the laboratory techniques that we are developing in CIBR make our science better able to explore 'real world' issues with communities. For instance, we are now able to investigate complex mixtures of contaminants in wastewater, and are finding that the environmental effects of certain combinations of chemicals may be more toxic together than they would be alone.
Virginia earned a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Sociology from the University of Canterbury. She continued on with her academic career, but found she was drawn to real-world research.

Microsoft to create single cross-platform Windows operating system
By Pete Hayman published 25 July 14
Microsoft has revealed that Windows, Windows Phone and Xbox operating systems could be changing, with plans to bring together all three into a single, cross-platform operating system when the next version is released.
The news came from chief executive officer Satya Nadella, who confirmed the move in Microsoft's quarterly earnings call for the three months ending 30th June – a quarter in which revenues increased 18 per cent to $23bn, compared to last year.
Nadella said: "We are investing in ways that will ensure our Device OS and first party hardware align to our core. We will streamline the next version of Windows from three Operating Systems into one, single converged Operating System for screens of all sizes."
It's not yet clear what the move will mean in practice, but Nadella has indicated that a sole operating system would deliver benefits from a retail, development and user perspective. It also delivers the potential for apps that work across all Windows platforms.
The announcement comes after the corporation revealed it would be cutting up to 18,000 jobs – including 12,500 from Nokia's former mobile phone arm, as well as closing Xbox Entertainment Studios and ending Android smartphone production.

Q: reactjs: select box with FormGroup, how to route to other page when one option is selected As the title said. I have a select box, and lets say i am on '/home', and when one of the option in select box is select, I want the page direct to '/home/test'. I tried LinkContainer from react-router-bootstrap. But it is not working with option tag.
Can anyone help me please? I am using react-router v4
 <FormGroup controlId="formControlsSelect">
        <ControlLabel>Please select one of the following: </ControlLabel>
        <FormControl componentClass="select" placeholder="select">

            <option value="select"></option>
            <LinkContainer to={`${match.url}/test`} >
                <option value="select">TEST</option>
            </LinkContainer>
        </FormControl>
</FormGroup>

<Route exact path={`${match.url}/test`} component={Test}/>

A: Currently you try to render a links in your select box and thats not going to work.
React-router's <Link> etc all create a tags with correct url's for you.
What you need to do is create a proper <select> with <option>s inside it. And on the <select> handle the onChange event and redirect your app from within the onChange handler. Either by just window.location = "/your/new/page" or if you want to route internal within you SPA get hold of the history object from react-router(more on that here).
http://jsbin.com/misewekida/1/edit?js,output
class HelloWorldComponent extends React.Component {
  onUrlSelected(e){
    console.log(e.currentTarget.value);
    //Navigate using 'window.location =' here or use
    //react routers "withRouter" to access the history and history.push("/your/local/url")
  }

  render() {
    return <select onChange={this.onUrlSelected}>
      <option value="www.google.com">Label 1</option>
      <option value="/some/internal/url/as/value">Label 2</option>
    </select>;
  }
}

React.render(
  <HelloWorldComponent/>,
  document.getElementById('react_example')
);

1) I know this answer doesn't cover how to navigate from within an even handler in a detailed way but the api changes from version to version in react-router so go in to their documentation as i suggested and read how they do it for your version. With v4 its as suggested the withRouter HOC.
2) Another option could be to not create a select box but just a  list of links and style it yourself then the  inside would work, but if you need a select then this is the way to more forward.
