Cellphones, Though Banned, Thrive in U.S. Prisons
“Cellphones, Though Banned, Thrive in U.S. Prisons - http://nyti.ms/htHyQr $goog #google”The technology required is the Faraday Cage. The prison can be constructed to block the cell phones connection. A passive process. To use a phone, it must be taken into the yard. Once there it commences connecting to the network. the connection process can be detected thus finding the phone. All of this requires no new technology.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

Helping Grandpa Get His Tech On
A few days before my 100-year-old mother’s death this summer, she said she had only one regret: not being able to see her family in California again.I will get her connected. The very short memory does not help.She likes letters. They lie around for months but are much sought after. The mail comes in as soon as it arrives.

“When Mortgage Rate Locks Expire - Mortgages - http://nyti.ms/gALnMI”Things are getting progressively shakier. I expect to buy some kind of a ruin on the edge of downtown. A solid roof and utility connections. Foot traffic would be a plus. It will be studio space.

New Street Photography, 60 Years Old: Discovering the Work of Vivian Maier
Vivian Maier, evidently one of America’s more insightful street photographers, has at last been discovered. The release of every fresh image on the Web causes a sensation among the growing legion of her admirers. (Frankly, Lens is late to the tabl...She walked and saw people. I don't like to do it. It is a violation of sorts. Much of the excitement is in the cropping and printing. That camera makes a 2.25" square negative. I would guess Plus X. The grain is fine for Tri X and the exposures are short for pan.
She makes a nice picture. I would rather look at you.
