APOLOGY

I would like to apologize for not posting very much lately.

This past month has been a very emotional roller coaster and we have a way to go yet.

A very wonderful lady in my apartment building, whom I considered like a mom to me was diagnosed with brain cancer, Four days later I found out my cousin had a massive brain tumor (Cancer). Two days later we found out that the man in my life (Arbyn) , his mom has cancer and doesn't have long.

Since all the news started pouring in, my cousin has passed away the Saturday before Easter and unexpectedly my Uncle passed away on Easter Sunday. In this turmoil.

My mind has been in all directions so please bare with me, I will do my best to put up some posts for my followers.

UPDATE

Sorry I haven't posted much the past couple of days.

Was having some major laptop issue so I did a full reinstall and hopefully am back on the right track.

Thank You to all my followers and viewers for your patience.

The Great Sidekick Data Outage of 2009: T-Mobile Offers $100 in Apology Money

T-Mobile sent out an update regarding the first great tragedy of the 21st century (involving Sidekicks): They're still holding out hope for data recovery, but if they can't, they'll show how sorry they are with a $100 credit.

T-Mo seems really sorry about this, you guys. Of course, they did lose a ton of customer data that's unlikely to be found, but at least they're properly apologetic. The full statement: At the LINK.

Burger King Updating 12,000 Locations with 'Futuristic' Look

Touchscreen menus. Corrugated metal. Red chandeliers. Brick. Burger King will add these elements to 12,000 locations in renovations costing franchisees between $300,000 and $600,000 apiece.

The goal? "A contemporary, edgy, futuristic" look, according to CEO John Chidsey. One of an "upscale restaurant."

You can see the new design in the lead shot (AP Photo/Pat Sullivan). It certainly looks more industrial, like a motorcycle shop or maybe a Chipotle. But there are more aggressive design elements, like the saucer ceiling, that you don't really see in a stock chain restaurant...and that honestly feel a it more retro than they do "futuristic." (And on another note, are a couple of touchscreens randomly dispersed through the tables really enough to encourage casual, table ordering?)

UPDATE: Bushfires in Victoria, Australia

The state of Victoria in southern Australia has recently been hit with hundreds of bush fires during a record-breaking heatwave - temperatures well above 38°C (100°F). Unfortunately, these fires have proved to be the deadliest in Australian history, with at least 166 deaths reported so far. The fires mostly appear to have been started by lightning - however a few appear to have been arson, and are under investigation - entire towns being declared crime scenes. Twenty-four fires are still burning, and authorities warn that the death toll will likely rise. (36 photos total) . LINK

I found this link for help in the comments area of the story.
