The Super Bowl is this Sunday. Over 70,000 people will pack into Houston’s NRG stadium for the big game, while hundreds of thousands more will descend on the Texas city to join the festivities.
And a lot of people means a lot of smartphones.
To deal with the data demands, AT&T, Verizon...

A bocage is a artisan-made raised hedge, which creates a safe grazing area for livestock, without tethering and obviates the need for ugly barbed wire. Its trees and banks make excellent environments for a rich biodiversity of plants and animals. Intensive farming removes them so as to allow access for large mechanical machinery. In twenty years time Governments will be paying out grants to put them back but the aged oaks and animals and plants will have long gone. However, we like a growing number of others are rebuilding and maintaining them already.
Twenty years ago we came to France because we saw the Countryside here as it once was in England - now we begin to see the same pattern reoccuring. Luckily France is bigger (an obvious but important factor) and the learning curve faster because it has all happened before...... By the time the CAP hits the latest European Member States perhaps they will be savvy enough not to take the same destructive paths - let's hope.
The shot is taken through the plastic pipes waiting to become part of the Mains Sewage requirement for our village - up 'til now we have all dealt with our own.......
I haven't sourced long enough tubing sections yet so I'm joining two lengths. The join is offset per layer to maintain strength, the join is wrapped with vinyl tape to finish.
Wandering through Siena on my way to the duomo I came cross this ornate loop fastened to the wall. I don't know what it's for; I'd guess it's a tying-up spot for horses. Or llamas.
The sculpture begins at the left with a scene that can be taken to be the birth of Dionysos. A semi-draped seated figure who is likely Zeus facing him is a youth holding a small child, presumed to be Hermes and the infant Dionysos at the moment of his second birth from the thigh of Zeus.
The next slab represents the bestowing of the gift of wine, the introduction of the worship of Dionysos to Attica and alludes to the beginnings of tragedy. At the right is a young male figure in a chlamys and lion skin gesturing to his right. Immediately next is a figure identified by his attributes of grapevine, leopard skin and cothurni as Dionysos. Between him and the adjacent figure to his right is a small altar, this latter figure may be Ikarios accompanied by his dog Maera and a tethered goat. Next follows a draped female, possibly a maenad, sometimes identified as Erigone.
After a sculpture of a crouched Silenus comes the third slab with three figures, they are conjectured to be, from left to right, Tyche Dionysos and Basilinna.
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "On the medium and small sized farms one finds the cows tethered--usually in a straight line across the field. This eliminates the need for fences, it eliminates the need of cutting hay during the green season and it assures the best of fresh succulent feed as the stakes are moved by degrees across the field. It does require more labor in miking and carrying water which would make the system impractical in America."

This hack was way simpler than I thought. I don't have many reasons now to jailbreak my iPhone. iPhone tethering works over USB or bluetooth. I had tethering before on iPhone 2.2 using iPhonemodem.de which created a network and connected the iPhone to mac via WiFi.
It's surprisingly smooth for beer with 7.5% alcohol.
I love these tall-boys - but I tend to forget about the whole "documentation" thing until I'm finished. I have three others that I drank and totally forgot to take pictures of until much later...

the safety, security and wisdom of duplicating this is questionable. ie. this was just a stunt to see if it could be done. :)
