According to StatCounter GlobalStats, Android OS has surpassed SymbianOS to become Ireland's second most popular mobile operating system. iOS, the operating system found on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, is still by far the most popular mobile OS in Ireland.
StatCounter GlobalStats, a service that aggregates internet traffic data, has shown that in December of last year Android's Irish internet traffic market share rose to 15.56%, whereas SymbianOS fell sharply to an all-time low of 10.98% market share.
These figures are largely mirrored in our own analytical site data for The Sociable. In December 2010 13.3% of our traffic from Ireland came from mobile devices. Out of this 13.3% figure, 75.7% were from iOS devices, 20.9% from Android, and just 2.5% from SymbianOS, with others like Nokia and BlackBerry accounting for the remaining 0.9%. Individually within the iOS figure of 75.7%, the iPhone was the largest contributor with 53.1% of overall mobile traffic in Ireland. The iPad followed with 15.3%, then the iPod Touch with 7.3%.
Earlier this year Android became the fastest growing mobile OS in Ireland, and is also rumoured to have reached the 200,000 app mark. With stats like these it's hard to wonder how much longer iOS can retain its mobile dominance.

Q: Standardizing odds ratios with opposite outcomes for lit review When doing a lit review, I find that results are frequently presented in different ways. Sometimes the outcome is Facility Births (FB), sometimes it is Home Births (HB). These are dichotomous outcomes.  I'd like to be able to convert them all to make Facility Births the outcome so they are easier to compare, but I don't know if this is possible.
I know that I can convert OR< 1 to OR >1 by using the equation 1/x, where x=OR<1, which then reverses the factors being compared. For example,
FB is less likely than HB in rural [OR=.26 (.12, .50)] than urban areas
converts to:
FB is more likely than HB in urban [OR=3.85 (2.00, 8.33] vs rural areas
My question is how to convert:
HB is more likely than FB in rural [OR=22.8 (10.6, 49.4)] than urban areas
Is it correct to say:
FB is more likely than HB in urban [OR=22.8 (10.6, 49.4)] than rural areas
Or is there some calculation that needs to be done?

A: When you reverse one factor you take the reciprocal, as you suggest. When you reverse the other you take the reciprocal again and so end up where you started from.

Discovery Channel Turning Scrapped Everest Jump Into Avalanche Documentary
Family members of the Everest avalanche victims at Sherpa Monastery in Kathmandu on April 20.

By Josh Dickey 2014-04-22 11:44:45 -0700
Discovery Channel is repurposing its scuttled live jump from Mount Everest as a documentary special after the deadliest single incident ever recorded on Everest killed at least 16, including 13 Nepalese Sherpas, last week. The documentary will focus on the avalanche, Discovery confirmed to Mashable.
A crew producing the jump special was at the base camp on Friday when the avalanche swept the Sherpas off the mountain.
SEE ALSO: Everest Sherpas Pack Up for the Season After Deadly Avalanche
High-altitude climber and wing-suit explorer Joby Ogwyn had planned a jump from the summit on May 11, for which a NBC crew was shooting advance footage for a five-night special. But in the wake of the tragedy, the jump special was scrapped.
Instead, the Discovery special will focus on the disaster and the Sherpa community's reaction, including a call for better wages and insurance after quitting for the season.
Ogwyn will still be a part of the show, as he was brought in to help recover the bodies from the mountain, according to Deadline, which first reported the news of Discovery's change in plans. Some of the Sherpas killed in the avalanche had been hired by Ogwyn and the production company, and Discovery is planning a donation to a Sherpa charity, Deadline reported.

Hi. Remember me? It's been so long since I've gotten to write about basketball and while I enjoyed the brief hibernation of the All-Star break, I'm glad to be back. In my week away from writing about basketball, I graced the hardwood with my presence twice. I'm only 5'7'' and I don't have exceptional handles, so my role in pickup games is really up in the air. Sometimes I get paired with a good point guard who can utilize my screening ability and other times I'm merely a pawn, frustrated by my teammates inability to properly space the floor. I won't ever make a difference offensively, although I can hit the occasional three, so I make my money on the defensive end of the court. Yes, I'm the guy that annoys everyone because he plays tough defense. I keep my guy from scoring, add in a couple steals, hustle after loose balls and I'm doing my job. I can't really compare myself to any player in the NBA, but if I had to, it would probably be LeBron James – I don't know.
While I'm busy being LeBron for my pickup team, the other four guys are forced to settle into the blanket stereotypes that are commonly associated with pickup basketball.
Steph is the best. He's the guy that doesn't look like much, but shows up and hits every single shot he takes and leads your team to victory. You don't even care when he decides not to pass it to you on the break. Steph is the equivalent of that guy. He's battled adversity based on his size and has shut up all his critics. He has a great matchup with the Blazer backcourt in a game that features a total of 220 and should be primed to get the Warriors rolling to start the second half. I shouldn't have to boggle your mind with all the crazy statistics, but I'll show you a few. First, Steph leads the entire planet in player efficiency rating (PER). Second, he has a top-5 usage league wide. Third, he's freaking Steph Curry – he's a safe bet for value in cash games and has an enormous ceiling.
This would be a magical spot to roster James Harden, but you won't be able to fit Harden and Steph on the same team unless you sell your soul to the devil. Booker has seen his price rise since receiving significant playing time thanks to all the Suns backcourt injuries, but he's still on my radar tonight. The Rockets have been atrocious defensively and this game is currently sporting a total of 215. While most of your points from Booker will come from actual points, in his last few games before the break he showcased an ability to pickup peripheral statistics, averaging 4.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists in his last five games. If he can throw that in with nearly 20 points, you'll be feeling good about his night.
You know what is good for older guys? Rest. Alright, yeah, I know Rudy Gay is only 29 years old, but it feels like he's been around forever (he's been in the league for 9 years). Gay exploded in a matchup with the Sixers right before the break and will get another excellent matchup with Nuggets tonight. Gay has taken a backseat to DeMarcus Cousins, but still has been able to carve out an average of nearly 18 points and seven rebounds per game this season. Despite seeing a drop in usage, Gay has become a bit more efficient from the field, upping his field goal percentage to 47% this season while still attempting 15 shots a game. The best thing about it is you probably won't be able to get him at a price like this for long, should he play to his abilities. I'm attacking a soft matchup in a game with a high total and a tight spread with this pick, he could pay off greatly in tournaments.
Disclaimer: There are a lot of really good PF matchups tonight.
Anthony Davis has an awesome matchup. The Nuggets, Kings, Lakers, Suns and Rockets are on the slate. Yes, I know there are a lot of viable guys in this spot tonight. However, I want to recommend a scrub so I can turn around and give you another stud option at center. Tolliver was getting starts prior to the all-star break thanks to some injuries in Detroit and despite the Tobias Harris trade, Van Gundy has said he'll continue to start for the first few games out of the break. I don't think we're guaranteed the 30 minutes or so he was before the break, but he should still see more than 20 minutes for near the bare minimum in price. To top that off, he actually has a decent matchup against the Wizards in a game with a nice enough total. Tolliver won't run the show when he's on the court and lots of possessions he probably won't even touch the ball, but he actually is serviceable from beyond the arc and should be able to get his hands on some loose rebounds while he is out there. He isn't special, but in a tournament, he's going to let you unleash the stars.
You: Did you just recommend Anthony Tolliver so you could then say Boogie?
You: Cool. Does he have a good matchup?
Me: Yes, the Nuggets frontcourt is weak defensively. The game has a nice total and a tighter spread, Boogie should thrive.
You: Is he going to take a lot of shots?
Me: Boogie has the second highest usage rate in the league (33.3) and attempts 21.5 shots per 36 minutes, so yeah, he'll probably shoot a lot.
You: Will he make those shots?
Me: Probably some of them, he averages like 27 points a game. Oh and also, he grabs a lot of rebounds as well, more than 11 per game.
You: Should I take him tonight?

Dunham is a Democrat!
Back in November, a reporter named Michael Tracey caused controversy when he posted a screenshot of Lena Dunham's voter information. Tracey took the info from https://voterlookup.elections.state.ny.us, and his screenshot showed Dunham was "Not enrolled in a party." And if Dunham wasn't a registered Democrat, it raised questions about how she could have voted in the 2016 New York Democratic primary.
Dunham responded to the controversy on Twitter by saying: "I DID vote and am a registered Democrat. I used to be a registered independent before my 'political awakening.'"
It's a bit annoying how Lena Dunham couldn't state when, exactly, she registered as a Democrat. I can tell you the exact day I registered to vote in New York: It was February 13, 2015.
If Dunham was telling the truth, and she did register as a Democrat in time to vote during the Democratic primary, that means one of two things:
1.) The information on the voter lookup website was more than six months out-of-date,
2.) The information on the voter lookup website was inaccurate.
Either of those scenarios strikes me as weird. Shouldn't people be more concerned about the accuracy of their databases??
Anyway...I recently took another look at voterlookup.elections.state.ny.us, and lo and behold, Lena Dunham is now listed as a member of the Democratic party! She did it!
This calls for a "Lena Dunham dancing" gif!

Today I feature another fantastic chicken wing recipe for your Super Bowl Parties. These are my absolute favorite chicken wings anytime anywhere!
Put your oven rack in the upper middle position. Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Put wings in a large bowl and add the oil and sprinkle with a little garlic salt to taste. Do not use too much here as you will have other opportunities to add more salt. If using, add garlic powder to taste. Using your hands mix it all together so that all the wings are well coated.
Then arrange in a single layer on the rack. Sprinkle a little more salt on top of the wings.
Place in the oven and toast until golden brown about 40 minutes.
While the wings are roasting make the sauce. Melt the butter in a pan over very low heat.
Sauté the garlic in the butter until fragrant. Take the pan off the heat, cover and let the garlic sit in the butter until the wings are cooked. It is hard to see the garlic in the butter, but it is in there.
When wings are golden brown remove them from the oven. Look at the golden color on those wings. Makes my mouth water just looking at them!!!
Using tongs place each wing on the garlic butter sauce and turn several times to coat.
Put back into the pan. Be careful that there are no pieces of garlic clinging to the wings. If there are they will burn. And burnt garlic is YUK!!!
Place the wings back into the roasting pan, and sprinkle with a bit more garlic salt. Spoon any remaining butter sans the garlic over the wings.
Then place back into the oven for 8-10 more minutes.
Place the wings in a bowl and serve hot. For contrast in the picture I placed some chopped parsley on the wings.
**NOTE: I do not measure. These are approximate guesses of how much I used.

Patrick Lencioni Running Meetings & Presentations Communication Skills Workplace Culture Workplace Behavior Business Office Skills Career Success Management & Leadership Leadership & Motivation Business & Money
Casey McDaniel had never been so nervous in his life.
In just ten minutes, The Meeting, as it would forever be known, would begin. Casey had every reason to believe that his performance over the next two hours would determine the fate of his career, his financial future, and the company he had built from scratch.
"How could my life have unraveled so quickly?" he wondered.
In his latest page-turning work of business fiction, best-selling author Patrick Lencioni provides readers with another powerful and thought-provoking book, this one centered around a cure for the most painful yet underestimated problem of modern business: bad meetings. And what he suggests is both simple and revolutionary.
Casey McDaniel, the founder and CEO of Yip Software, is in the midst of a problem he created, but one he doesn't know how to solve. And he doesn't know where or who to turn to for advice. His staff can't help him; they're as dumbfounded as he is by their tortuous meetings.
Then an unlikely advisor, Will Peterson, enters Casey's world. When he proposes an unconventional, even radical, approach to solving the meeting problem, Casey is just desperate enough to listen.
As in his other books, Lencioni provides a framework for his groundbreaking model, and makes it applicable to the real world. Death by Meeting is nothing short of a blueprint for leaders who want to eliminate waste and frustration among their teams, and create environments of engagement and passion.

From the Inside Flap
DEATH by Meeting
"How could my life have unraveled so quickly?" he wondered.
In his latest page-turning work of business fiction, best-selling author Patrick Lencioni provides readers with another powerful and thought-provoking book, this one centered on a cure for the most painful yet underestimated problem of modern business: bad meetings. And what he suggests is both simple and revolutionary.
Casey McDaniel, the founder and CEO of Yip Software, is in the midst of a problem he created, but one he doesn't know how to solve. And he doesn't know where or whom to turn to for advice. His staff can't help him; they're as dumbfounded as he is by their torturous meetings.
Then an unlikely advisor, Will Petersen, enters Casey's world. When he proposes an unconventional, even radical, approach to solving the meeting problem, Casey is just desperate enough to listen.

GEORGE TOWN: Health inspectors investigating the spread of the hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Penang have narrowed it down to the supermarket trolley.
The HFMD virus was found on the handlebars of the trolleys and on child ride equipment in supermarkets.
Last week, the State Health Department directed shopping malls here to sanitise their trolleys, child rides and public benches.
HFMD spreads by contact with nasal discharge, saliva and faeces, and fluids from the blisters of an infected person.
A person infected with HFMD is most contagious during the duration of the illness, with no known treatment available besides relief of symptoms such as fever, sore throat, mouth ulcers, rashes or lethargy.
The disease has been spreading fast among children here, mainly in the island's urban northeast district.
However, the number of new cases reported since Wednesday has dropped.
State Health Committee chairman Dr Afif Bahardin said the number of cases dropped over three consecutive days.
"We recorded 78 cases on Wednesday, followed by 52 and 51 on Thursday and Friday.
"However, the cumulative number of cases is still high at 2,341 so far this year compared to 1,099 cases in 2017 over the same period," he told a press conference yesterday.
Dr Afif said 30 premises remained closed since the outbreak early this month, comprising 10 kindergartens, seven nurseries, six primary schools, six preschools and a childcare centre.
The schools still closed are the SK Sungai Bakap, SJKC Sum Min 1, SK Saujana Indah, SJKC Moh Ghee Pusat, SJKC Beng Teik and SJKC Kwang Hwa.
"Nine victims are undergoing treatment in hospitals," he said.
Commenting on claims in social media of HFMD fatalities, Dr Afif told reporters there was no such confirmation yet pending a mortality review by the Health Department.

The Worcester Linux Users' Group (WLUG) is a group that meets monthly to talk about various topics of interest to the Open Source, Free Software, and Linux/Unix communities. Sometimes we have a guest speaker with a planned topic. while other times we have an ad-hoc discussion, but we always have fun. Come to learn about Linux and other Free/Open Source Software, get help and support for a problem you are having, or present a topic about something you are working on. Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experts--just show up!
This mailing list is for general discussion by WLUG members, meeting announcements, etc.  Anyone is welcome to join the mailing list, whether you have come to a meeting or not!

Dragonrouge: Further Adventures in Terra Magica is a fantasy novel by American writer Lin Carter, the second in his series about the fictional "Flat Earth" of Terra Magica. It was first published in paperback by DAW Books in December 1984. A trade paperback edition was published by Wildside Press in 2001, with an ebook edition following from Gateway/Orion in February 2020.

Plot summary
The novel's setting of Terra Magica is "the world as imagined by Dark Age European geographers and bestiary-writers," envisioned as one that "actually exists as a world parallel to our own. There magic works, hippogryphs and mantichores roam free, the earth is flat, paynims worship Termagant, and there is no Western Hemisphere."

Sir Kesrick, Knight of Dragonrouge, together with his staunch companion Mandricardo of Tartary and their lady loves, continues their perilous quest through Terra Magica, with adventures ranging from a princess to be rescued from a sea serpent, a giant of anthropophagous inclinations, and a kingdom under an enchanted curse.

Again, chapter notes at the end of the book reference the sources in earlier fantasy literature of various creatures and character and place names used by the author.

Sources
Carter "admits to having got the idea for the [Terra Magica series] from 'Thackeray's delightful treatise, The Rose and the Ring, a splendid spoof of fairy tales,'" with "nods to other fantasy classics as well," including Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Cabell's The High Place, Beckford's Vathek, and Vance's The Dying Earth.

Reception
Robert M. Price, writes "[a]ll the faults of [Carter's]  Gondwane and Green Star books are collected here. The humor is broader and more ham-handed than ever. ... Or at least it's supposed to be. ... I suspect that most [readers] will find it growing a bit thin before arriving at the end of several volumes of it." While conceding the series is intended as a parody or spoof, he notes "[t]here are some things, many things, from which [such] does not exempt a writer," including repetitiveness, failure to think things through in advance, poor continuity that "credit[s] exploits from ... previous book[s] to the wrong character," and an "intrusively and self-consciously cute" authorial voice. Price also observes that the protagonists, supposedly warriors, "scarcely ever lift a sword;" indeed, "[t]here is almost no fighting, only a series of perils and escapes, an endless chain of rescues by magicians, fairy godmothers, flying carpets, wishing rings, etc."

The book was also reviewed by Carl B. Yoke in Fantasy Review, January 1985, and Richard E. Geis in Science Fiction Review, Spring 1985.
