Kindle 2

KINDLE 2 is against the Law

It was hardly the most interesting or earth-shaking part of Jeff Bezos's introduction of the Kindle 2 on Monday, but one small, experimental feature in the device is already causing a minor uproar. Specifically: The Kindle 2's text-to-speech function, which will use a computerized voice to read aloud anything displayed on the device's screen. The problem? The Authors Guild says that that's against the law.
The challenge revolves around audiobooks, which are treated separately from printed material from a copyright standpoint. A retailer can't record a copy of a book on a CD and sell it or bundle it along with a novel without paying a separate fee, just as buying a copy of an audiobook doesn't entitle you to a free copy of the printed version.

plane crash in NY

CLARENCE, N.Y. – A commuter plane crashed into a suburban Buffalo home and erupted in flames late Thursday, killing all 48 people aboard and one person on the ground, authorities said.

Flames silhouetted the shattered home after Continental Connection Flight 3407 plummeted into it around 10:20 p.m.

"The whole sky was lit up orange," said Bob Dworak, who lives less than a mile from the crash site. "All the sudden, there was a big bang, and the house shook."

The 74-seat Q400 Bombardier aircraft, operated by Colgan Air, was flying from Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey to Buffalo Niagara International Airport in light snow, fog and 17 mph winds.

Dworak said while residents of his neighborhood about 10 miles from the Buffalo airport were used to planes rumbling overhead, but this one sounded louder than usual, sputtered and made some odd noises. After hearing the crash, he drove over to take a look, and "all we were seeing was 50 to 100 foot flames and a pile of rubble on the ground. It looked like the house just got destroyed the instant it got hit," he said.

For the last several weeks, Pacitti has been the subject of Internet chatter regarding her former deal with A&M Records, which yielded the single "Let It Slide" (embedded below), and more recently, for her rumored close relationship with a pair of 19 Entertainment executives. Specifically, Star magazine reported that Pacitti lived for a time in the same apartment building as 19's Michelle Young and Roger Widynowski, even referring to the former exec as her "best friend"; 19, of course, is the production company behind Idol.

lincoln s birthday

lINCON'S BIRTH DAY CELEBRATIONS:::::::::::::::::::::::

February 12th marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of an extraordinary American: Abraham Lincoln. Born on the frontier in an isolated log cabin, Lincoln experienced profound hardships during early his life. Although he had few opportunities for formal education, he loved books and learning. A self taught man, he moved away from his family’s farm to become a gentleman lawyer and political leader. He was often under estimated. Critics viewed him as a simple-minded backwoodsman who was unqualified for the demands of high office.

The nation was divided on the day that Abraham Lincoln assumed the presidency. The Civil War was a dark cloud threatening the future of the Union. Despite his humble beginnings, Lincoln rose to meet each challenge. One of his most significant actions was to draft the Emancipation Proclamation which changed the course of our American history and culture. Sadly, this man who even today continues to inspire our nation died on April 15, 1865 as a result of an assassin’s bullet

sat scores

Origional story for students ... do come back again...


Students registered for the SAT in March will have an option no other previous test-takers have had: they’ll get to send only their best scores to colleges next fall. Called Score Choice, the new reporting method doesn’t allow mixing and matching from test sittings, but students will be able to choose which sitting(s) they want college admissions officers to see.

WIN EXCITING PRIZES : CLICK ON SIDE ADS

The College Board’s rationale is that Score Choice will reduce test anxiety. Critics say it won’t really help students, because it will result in a new level of gamesmanship in a process already jammed with such tactics. They sound like the College Board itself, which reported in 2002 when it stopped offering Score Choice for its subject tests that “it encouraged ‘gamesmanship’ and appeared to favor wealthy students with access to guidance counselors who know how to maneuver the system.”
Score Choice could also significantly increase revenue for the College Board as is encourages students to take the test many times. But not every student can afford to do that. Score Choice will benefit the wealthier students who can plunk down $45. for each SAT registration. Ironically, this another reason the College Board gave in 2002. According to the New York Times, they went on the record then saying “ending Score Choice would be fairer to low-income and minority students, who did not have the resources to keep retaking the tests.”
Here’s another possibility: the SAT’s only rival, the ACT, has since its inception in 1958 allowed students to choose the scores they report. As the number of students taking the rival test increases, the College Board may have made the change to stay competitive.

In the mind-blowing new Fox drama, "Dollhouse," Eliza Dushku plays a woman who gets to approach life with the proverbial "clean slate." Unfortunately, that's not as enticing as it sounds.
Dushku is Echo, a member of a highly illegal and clandestine group of individuals who can be "imprinted" with various personalities in order to perform missions for filthy-rich clients. Following their missions, they lie down on a table adorned with lights and — zap! — something occurs to wipe their brains squeaky clean.
Then they walk around, robotlike, with vacant looks as if they've watched too much "Grey's Anatomy."

DONT BE Oniomaniac: USE YOUR HEAD...

Oniomaniac is the new buzzword of the week. It has nothing to do with onions. An Oniomaniac is someone who has an uncontrollable desire to buy things. Apparently what this economy needs is citizens inflected with Oniomania.
From what CN can gather, an Oniomaniac is not a real diagnosable condition, though there certainly are less of them in this economic climate. What would actually be best for the economy?
With many businesses still struggling, we can’t seem to decide if we should be saving our money and paying off our debt or if we should turn into a bunch Oniomaniacs.
The word comes from the Greek onios = “for sale,” and mania = insanity. It’s also the name of a blog. The Oniomaniac is a blogger name whose counter says they have received 14,000 + visitors, So why is Oniomaniac
