February 18, 200916 yr THIS is big news: Single charger coming for mobile phones By David Meyer ZDNet.co.uk Posted on ZDNet News: Feb 17, 2009 8:37:00 AM Major phone makers and mobile operators have agreed to adopt a single interface for handset chargers, the GSM Association announced on Tuesday. By 2012, more than half of new handsets shipped will use Micro-USB as the interface for charging, the mobile trade body said at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. People will be able to use a single charger to revive devices from the 17 manufacturers and operators participating in the initiative. The adoption of Micro-USB as a common standard has several advantages for users and the industry, the GSM Association (GSMA) said. In particular, it allows manufacturers to stop shipping a new charger with every handset, and it lets buyers avoid the need to have multiple chargers for different devices. \ http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9595_22-269606.html
February 18, 200916 yr ^ This is old news, KFOTW. Either stay up with the times, or forfeit your 'Moderator' status.
February 19, 200916 yr Anyone watch some horrible show called "Criminal Minds" tonight? It's on CBS. Anyways, I watched bc my sister told me it was supposedly taking place in Cleveland. While I saw zero footage of the city, they did utter "Edgewater Creek," "cuYOGA," and "Cedar Park."
February 19, 200916 yr ^ This is old news, KFOTW. Either stay up with the times, or forfeit your 'Moderator' status. Well lah-dee-dah to you too, mister.

February 19, 200916 yr For the IT people out there, can anyone give me an example of an IT project in the public sector that failed? I have to write a quick synopsis on it. Thanks. **My google search has been somewhat unproductive.
February 19, 200916 yr How about Florida's infamous touch screen voting machines? http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/13/us/politics/13voting.html?ex=1349928000&en=332c90f6ecf671a7&ei=5088&partner=msnbcpolitics&emc=rss
February 19, 200916 yr Muchos gracias. I should have thought about that. Cuyahoga County had a debacle too.
February 19, 200916 yr Specifically, Cuyahoga had trouble with the GEMS operating system that went with the Diebold touch screen machines. Go to www.cuyahogavoting.org to download a detailed report on how the system failed.

February 20, 200916 yr A 90-year-old man who lost his life savings to accused fraudster Bernie Madoff is forced back to work. http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?cl=12131768
February 20, 200916 yr I really think they need to bring back public executions. Madoff would be first on my list, followed by serial killers and rapists. No, I am not kidding. I also wasn't kidding about my belief that race consciousness/racism has its origins in our DNA/primal instincts (it was deleted).

February 20, 200916 yr "Personally, I hope both of these lifestyle centers close." "I say, wipe FL off the map with the rest of the South!" "Tear it all down! Just tear it all down. Redevelop the areas that were destroyed when the innerbelt was planned and built." Thank goodness MTS isn't in charge! Several hundred people including some forumers would be out of a job, I-90 would be gridlocked for miles, and I would be somewhere floating in the Atlantic! :x :laugh:

Trust me. I would create a fabulous rail network to take cars of the streets. Give me 5 billion dollars and I could turn Cleveland proper around!
February 20, 200916 yr Bull. If we gave you $5B you'd spend it all in upscale retail stores. :) Not true. I would build a GAP!

February 20, 200916 yr Does anyone else find the following situation really odd? You are at a urinal doing your business, when another individual walks in. Instead of doing his business at the urinal next to you or 2 urinals down from you, he instead decides to enter a stall, close the door, and do what he could have done at a urinal. Is this strange, or is there some unwritten man rule I am unaware of?

Is this strange, or is there some unwritten man rule I am unaware of? NO. I never use urinals. I dont want another dude talking to me so to avoid "conversation" at the urinal I use the stall.
February 20, 200916 yr ^You are one of those weirdos then. Just cemented it. I think it's a g.a.y. thing...
February 20, 200916 yr ^You are one of those weirdos then. Just cemented it. I'm sorry, but there is no reason why a) another man should be next to you at a urinal unless its a super busy bathroom [and thats a whole 'nother issue] and b) there is no need to have conversation while at the urinal or in the bathroom. NONE PERIOD! Those two reasons are why I miss having my own bathroom. ^You are one of those weirdos then. Just cemented it. I think it's a g.a.y. thing...
February 20, 200916 yr No folks it is not a gay thing.. It is Pee-Shy, Shy-Bladder thing. http://www.paruresis.org/

February 20, 200916 yr Who is that, MTS, Doogie Howser? Florida Magne, he knows I'm tripping up in hurr. No Chris "to catch a...." Hansen You are so ghetto. lol
February 21, 200916 yr So, MTS, you aren't interested in checking out the "hardware"? I guess it's not like straight guys and boobs where we just cannot help but look.
February 21, 200916 yr So, MTS, you aren't interested in checking out the "hardware"? I guess it's not like straight guys and boobs where we just cannot help but look. Ahhh NO. That is disgusting. I have a penis, I don't want to see anyone else's! I've had this conversation with my cousins. We're tall so I can see over the divider, I don't want anyone to assume I'm taking a peek! I don't get down like that. I don't believe the mens room is a place for conversation. I want to go in, do my business in peace and get the phuck out! Besides, I'm far more interested in what a mans got going on in the back. :wink:
February 21, 200916 yr Besides, I'm far more interested in what a mans got going on in the back. :behind: Fixed that smiley for ya.

February 21, 200916 yr The only thing that ever bothers me privacy-wise about public bathrooms are when you are sick. When I lived in the dorms we had community bathrooms, so when I got food poisoning and had the need to throw up, I would go down 5 floors (as fast as I could) to a private bathroom. Even then, someone in a room nearby would still here and be like "Are you okay ? ? ?" as I came out.
February 22, 200916 yr Saw this on a visit to my parents not far from their house. The driver here was run off the road into this fence by another vehicle. I was almost hit sitting stationary in the left turn lane. Missed me by 3 feet.
