LOL ULF & Tony.
Can you imagine that wee note:......, "That's been a year since the Harbawbags have been in the Superbowl,........ "
I'll try mixing Malto Markos words up a bit in the hope that it'll be google proof......, but there is no way on this Earth I could've wrote something like that......, not because its not true, (she is my whole world, after Hibs!!! ) but because I am just not any good at wording the mushy stuff.
Miss you Charlie & love you Sash xxxx

Here you go, Marko. Maybe they'll make a fudge donut printer next?
3D Systems (DDD) announced a deal with Hershey's (HSY, Fortune 500) Thursday to collaborate on developing a 3-D printer that makes chocolate and other edible products.
In a statement, 3D Systems said making printers that print chocolate is a good way to help the relatively new technology go mainstream. Hershey sees it as a great delivery system for its products.
"Whether it's creating a whole new form of candy or developing a new way to produce it, we embrace new technologies such as 3-D printing as a way to keep moving our timeless confectionery treats into the future," said William Papa, head of research and development at Hershey, in a statement.
There is no word as to when the magical device might be available or how much it might cost.
3-D printing allows people to print actual, tangible products instead of words on a page. It's usually done by adding the raw material -- plastic, metal, or, in this case, chocolate -- to the printer instead of ink and building the product layer by layer.
At the consumer level, most 3-D printing is done by hobbyists, who print everything from toys to clothes to musical instruments. Consumer 3-D printers start at about $1,000.
But at the industrial level they are used to make manufacturing operations more efficient, making mostly high end products for the aerospace, medical or automotive sectors.
Some think 3-D printing could soon revolutionize the manufacturing sector, cutting out the need for expensive transportation and making the whole concept of outsourcing seem so 20th century.2015 AAL - Ezekiel "Double Digit Sacks" Ansah.

I think I'd just open the Chocolate cartridges and scoop it all out before its even tested.
And fudge donuts? You mean there would be a cartridge with liquid fudge in it? That'd DEFINITELY be getting opened and scooped out."...when Hibernian won the Scottish Cup final and that celebration, Sunshine on Leith? I don’t think there’s a better football celebration ever in the game.”

Very cool ....., hope the guy at the end there picked that up and ate it......, if it was within the regulation five seconds of course!
Got to say though, since this food 3D conversation has started....., I have been to my kitchen and ate two Tunnocks Tea Cakes....., and its 1245am......., not good!"...when Hibernian won the Scottish Cup final and that celebration, Sunshine on Leith?

The PC itself seems decent. One thing I missed is that is does not have dual cameras, only a front-facing one. But it appears my wife is using it as a laptop more than a tablet anyway.
Windows 8.1 is driving me nuts though.The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.

Cool Easter Egg at digg.com Use the old Konami cheat code on your keyboard (Need to have sound on):

Here's another couple of easter eggs I hadn't heard of before:
Stashed away on various Nestle-owned sites are some creative renditions of their most famous brands' logos. By viewing the source code (right click "view source" or "view page source" on most browsers) of kitkat.com, or Skittles.com, you'll see some artistic text art placed in amongst the page's code.
Typing various phrases into Google can produce some interesting results.
First, try "do a barrel roll". Then how about "askew".
On Google Images, a search for "Atari Breakout" will steal a lot of the working day. As will a regular search for "Zerg Rush".AAL Quintez Cephus

Man I'm addicted to wireless charging. My Nokia Lumia has this. Just set the phone down and you're done. I've only had to plug it into a charger a handful of times when I was traveling.
Thing is, AT&T decided that the Qi standard that my phone has is not the one they want to support going forward. So the next generation of Lumias that they carry don't have it. This has deterred me from upgrading. I'd rather stick with my older phone that wirelessly charges than upgrade to a nicer phone that requires an additional charging cover and won't work with my existing charging stands.#birdsarentreal

I wish mine had wireless charging. The mini usb charging port has actually become a little loose and sometimes won't charge. I'm looking at phones now. I definitely want wireless charging. I like having an external data slot so I get to add 64 GB of storage and those are getting rarer. I suppose they want people to use cloud based storage so the data usage goes up. I'm on Verizon so that keeps choices fairly open but not free range.Benny Blades~"If you break down this team man for man, we have talent to compare with any team."
