War in Georgia
Quote:

     The Prime Minister of Russia Vladimir Putin accused the United States in cynicism and unwillingness to reach a peaceful settlement in the conflict zone. "It is a pity that some of our partners do not help us, and trying to obstruct. I have in mind and move the United States for its military-transport aircraft of the Georgian military contingent from Iraq actually in the conflict zone" - Putin said at the podium government. According to him, this "movement in reverse from the settlement of the situation."

     "Cynicism is not surprising that policy, surprising scope of this cynicism. Surprising ability to issue white for black, black for white, the ability to deftly expose the aggressor as victims of aggression. Saddam Hussein, as you know, because he has destroyed several Shiite villages, it is necessary was, of course, hang. But the current Georgian rulers, who overnight just £ 10 from the face of the Earth Ossetian villages which tanks giving children and the elderly, who were burned alive in the barns of innocent civilians - these figures are, of course, must be brought under protection " -- Putin said.

The secret of iPhone LMT

| No Comments
Almost within month (well, plus two days) in our proud Latvia must begin officially sold iPhone. But still no information.

By totally incomprehensible reason, in my opinion, LMT refuses to share whatever it was not the details, citing commercial secrets. What is the trade secret that potential buyers will know when they can buy this phone and at what price? Something is certainly not all seem so smoothly and well, as stated.

Probably not yet developed a mechanism to activate the mind and tying the phone. Or is it simply not brought to our country an acceptable number of phones, and the party is expected this summer, but when exactly no one yet knows no. Or simply have not yet decided on what terms they will sell.


I can even think of another obyasnenie trade secrets - not dremlyut competitors. And too soon the remaining mobile operators agree with Apple to sell ifonov its customers. What again in the near future will be announcements. And it is in no hurry to call LMT price, rightly fearing that if competitors offer their clients more profitable and interesting proposals.

And even ozvuchenny comment in the news, if we adopt it (in terms of prices) is close to the truth, claiming that the phone will be offered for 70 lats (140 dollars) and of course Mr. contract for two years. Only remembering various other promotional offers from LMT, I assume that under this contract, within two years to the amount accounts will be more pluses 20-30 lats per month. But if this is not the case, then I still vryadli imagine going to buy iPhone - wife does not appreciate if I rasstanus with such a sum of money for "ordinary toys." While certainly would like to, yes. But hopefully it will do the same Bite sell iPhone (how did they relate to Vodafone).

And I have yet odnoa spoon tar personal assumption. And if so many people in Latvia pozaryatsya on iPhone? In the circle of those people with whom I talk, only one person waiting when iPhone will sell. The rest do not even have heard about this phone, and when I try to tell about it, bored with that kind of say anything interesting for them at this phone does not. And indeed I think for most of the remaining inhabitants of our country is more than true.

We even iPod s pro who knows little. And among those who has heard anything about this player, a lot of different misconceptions have nothing to do with reality. This is sad picture.

And now remained not so much (hopefully) wait to see how it all will be in reality. Indeed, until the end of the summer has left little time.

iPhone in Latvia

| No Comments
A few weeks back began formal sale of new iPhone. In America, and I know some other countries. Long before that day was aware that the CH is the new iPhone, how much it will cost and how many will have to pay per month under the contract.

This summer officially start selling iPhone promise and we have in Latvia. The date of the start of sales does not specifically reported. Only meager

and later this summer - in Estonia (EMT), Latvia (LMT) and Lithuania (Omnitel)

On the price at which the phone will prodvatsya nothing specific is not said. On conditions of the contract - you can see - again full molchok. Apparently terrible military secrecy. And now nearly half of summer. And if the aforementioned vague deadlines, the sale of the phone must have already begun within a half months. And if even take distant deadline nachla sales - say 31 August, then in my view already, it would be very time you about some prices, terms. In order for the remaining time having complete information can decide for themselves whether potyanesh whether the purchase of the phone...

We want it to become the owner of the iPhone. While bearing in mind the significance silence, I think that the price of phone and conditions of its acquisition will most likely be little comfortable and probably shocking to worse.

And I think silly to expect that I shall enjoy the services of LMT with etak pomoemu year 1998, will be a particular proposal. After all, it's LMT. In their current rates, taking into account all the discounts and a permanent multi-subscriber calls from connecting to subscribe LMT LMT costing more expensive than if I called from his room at the Bite number in LMT.

So it is likely to read the prices on iPhone, I most likely vzdohnu hard, and become one step closer to a complete renunciation of LMT. In principle, this one step further and stayed for this.

The website LMT in the news about the imminent start of prozhad unclear when the iPhone in our country, there is a small form, signed by filling in for news about the iPhone in Latvia. Subscribe immediately, even in early June. Only in this way since then no information I had received. Steels truth but news coming from Apple on the iPhone, and in the beginning chasnosti phone sales in America. It is very strange and telling zvonochek. Although it is possible and I certainly nothing linking these two events.

Find a loophole, how can we not wait until someone gets turn to a new interface for gmail. Your profile should only change the interface language to English (US). So let's say both are old and well-known trick, which I have worked in this case.

Trying to deal with lastfm. Not that there, I did not understand what it would be. Simply, it works very strange and incomprehensible to me. Even last week put in the right column of the blog widget displaying tapped top performers in the week. Moreover, I now have their own differences in the profile at the top lastfm top-there appears only in the first week of November, the past never displayed.

And plus problem with scrobbleing. All last week, my iPod has served in single-lastfm no information on the pumping. Yesterday poshamanil bubnom with, and even though this something passed. Today it is again not working, and proslushannoe during this period of time spent on the iPod again nowhere.

Strannenko ponyatnenko and not all of this seems to lastfm.

Work and home

There are such times at work, when a lot of work and once distracted. When hands are already tired of mysheklikov and klavoklikov. And no longer want. But still this preset get fun. Interestingly, a lot and be happy. While ustaesh, but there is a moral satisfaction from prodelanoy work and the results achieved. And when all behind you satisfied, happy naslazhdaeshsya quiet, you do not want anything more.

But when it is prolonged for too long, when instead of a bunch of important cases zanimaeshsya any details when something serious is busy and important, but you want urgently to what made something fines, perhaps even slightly beyond duties. When apparatus go from coffee mugs with hot aromatic coffee, and its going to drink for reading RSS, but instead managed to reach a mug only an hour or two, when its contents are irrevocably cold .. When there is time and opportunity to pay their bills, but conceivable and inconceivable deadlines are not waiting ... When the next caller wants nagavkat first and only then trying to understand who and what you want. Not because I am such an evil and bad. And because it is already going to limit some, the rest is already out of this circle, and you are able to engage only to the current shaft which in the terms is, there is a natural reaction to the subconscious attempt something more akin to the zone closest attention when there simply is already no place.

And when someone is just a way of trying to chat desire to drag themselves all the attention. Which allocate it at this point in time can not do it. And not only want around talking about yes, but it is specifically expressed thoughts, so you can burn them to be in memory or on a piece of paper and forget to defer to the then when the time comes for that. Now just once, but you want to correct a reaction now. We want so its no longer just nagavkat but to bite.

And then remains only fatigue and a strong reluctance to do anything. Void. Like peregoraesh from surges from the brink. But then again gradually prihodish in itself.

Here is somehow this is all joined together. But nevertheless, it is already all over, and life is accustomed to gauge. Although not quite. Armaggedon There is a local scale in the form of repairs in a strategically important facilities apartment. What adds temporarily into some difficulties and require physical labor. This of course does not like me, but it is necessary.

Continue trying eBay

So. Purchased and longer days in the hands of the American-mail is the memory card. Its location tracking via the internet. It is a pity update only once a day.

Purchased but not yet sent almost golden ring.

And on the way, two more rings, made their bid for a few days is not broken, and most likely before the end of the auction and will not be broken. Of course, and I want to get them. But this gap in my budget will be too serious. While the possibility remains receiving these rings, they sell, not even in a loss.

And just want to buy the iPod. Is the 4-giga. But this is no longer likely this month. Although, if the two rings will be killed by someone else, and the first orders to creep its way safely to me .. It can be ....

Prismotrel already polzovanny one, but it is normal iPod. In running condition. But there were doubts thought-work he could work well, but the state of its battery, and because it does not raz-dva pomenyaesh. So this is a very critical parameter.

My experiment with eBay

| No Comments
I already have experience buying electronic goods (not required delivery, and download all). But we think that there sell at the auction, decided to look at that and sell others.

To its regret is not possible to see all auctions ending soon in the not-depending on the category. See category certainly convenient, but when you know that Looking. But used items to sell at all to learn that, inconvenient.

And my home has been more than a year, and perhaps of all complained two years without cause Playstation 2. Without case - because 8 Mb memory card is $ 40. Joystick-again about 40 American presidents. To just play in my view expensive. Too expensive. While certainly want to take two joystick, and play a fighting with his wife. Or with the same slot race car. Especially given that many hits console games these genres spared personal computer side, or were ported, but the management .... I certainly silence about what I tell Silent Hill, Resident Evil .... Yes, I know that there are at personalkah, but I think that it will no longer there.

What happened next I think you have already guessed. I went to auction in the appropriate category, and the first that saw a memory card for consoles. For four and a half dollar 64Mb. But delivery-$ 20. Compare the price with the store in the village of 8 Mb-40 usd, and 64 Mb of selling, I do not see. Greed and curiosity played their case. Purchased.

Now interesting results. How long will be my buying of America. And I get that ordered, so for the money so funny in working order. Or, as they say greed fraera disease. Although based on the reputation of the seller, all should be well. So I think in any case, plus one get positive feedback to your profile at the auction. With too well.

I hope that I have not yet familiar with the customs services in the country, before a purchase. :))

And I doubt that the 64Mb memory card for the PS2, there seem reval Google.

If interesting result otpishus here when ordering.
