during my summer of pain I researched how people react differently to facial hair. Evidence supports the fact that when a chap sports a goatee beard, he is looked upon unfavourably. This may be because an upside down triangular shape is created over the face, which harbours all sorts of dark and nasty ... hairy thoughts. Strange, but true!

Don't know why Tescos has such a bee up its arse. I thought the choice to not include a single baked bean on the packaging was daring and bold.
PS. Try approaching Sainsburys. Their marketing department is notoriously weak-willed and breaks down at even the most feeble petitions for a product alteration. If a three year old girl can convince them with a poorly constructed letter to change the name of tiger bread, I don't see why you couldn't redesign the label for Sainsbury's Basics Goats Milk.

Ignore what's going on at the front - Vettel in a fast car who is in the lead at the end of the first lap? Obviously a Vettel victory - and the rest of it was pretty decent. There have been many races I loathed this year (chiefly the usual suspects: Spain, always shit; Monaco, almost always shit; Hungary, always shit; etc. etc.) but this wasn't one of them.
Just popped in for a quick look down the board.....
I got up this morning, while having a fag and breakfast I installed my line 6 pod farm studio, dragged out my filthy electic guitar with rusty strings that has not been played for 8 years or so. started playing with my pod farm and just realized it's half seven, it's the second best thing I'v ever owned in my life, I fucking love it.....

In other news.... I went to unplug my EIGHT YEAR OLD daughters iPad mini yesterday.... Here's the result. Notice the charring on one of the pins..... It's been suffering with an intermittent charging problem that Apple could not track down after 3 visits to the Liverpool store...
And before you ask, NO... it was OEM cable, OEM charger.. in fact the charger and cable where both only 3 weeks old purchased from the Liverpool Apple store on recommendation as they could not track down the charging issue.. not a cheap e-bay 99p death trap!

I've not got more money than sense, It was a choice between an android tablet or spend the extra £100 or so on an iPad... I chose the iPad because they have outstanding build quality (but not so much in the charging department) and gorilla glass in them so it can really take a beating... She's only with me on weekends and we use facetime to stay in contact through the week... I know I could have gotten an Android tablet and used Skype.. She has all the dolls/prams/figures under the sun! (and I am yet to use a decent Android based tablet) The Daily Mirror are sending a journalist out to my place tomorrow morning for photos before Apple send a courier out to collect it.

Looks like a blown capacitor to me.
Easily mistaken for soot / smoke. I do this sort of thing all the time - it's my job to break electronic kit to see if it fails safely.
Blown caps are less dangerous than you might think - they tend to blow at a lower temperature than actual explodey fire and that. As far as I can see in the pic, there's no melting of the plastic, which is a giveaway that the temperatures weren't dangerously high.
Still shitly built for that to happen, mind you. Certainly you're entitled to your money back, and if you've been upset by it, then I'd expect them to give you vouchers. And I'd expect them to tell you the outcome of their investigation, too.
Checked all the capacitors and they are all intact (no bulging)
to paraphrase the Beatles "I've got blisters on me fingers!!!!" and did get a nasty shock from it! I am not an engineer but the only real damage I can see is where the pins from the wall met the circuit board... the charring on the PCB is around the solder point of the live cable.... (maybe it was a bad joint and the wire slipped) I don't know yet.... It's OEM from the apple store in Liverpool (never used a cheap charger on it due to reports of them just going bang)... The Daily Mirror have been out and interviewed me and my daughter.... took about 4000 pictures (With the most amazing camera I have ever seen... The guy let me take a few pictures with it... it had a "multi focus" mode that you point... half depress the shutter, again and again and then press down fully to take the photo... it could handle up to 12 focus points in one snap) anywho.. The guy asked if he could pass my contact details back to Apple and my phone rang 9 minutes later with some snotty bird from Ireland (the press office) she was really rude and abrupt and spat out words like a machine gun spits out bullets... She really lost her temper with me when I asked her to speak a little slower! But they are sending someone out to collect it tomorrow now... The case continues... Not sure if it's going to be a digital on-line thing or in print yet.... Apple have refused to comment before they get chance to examine it but the story can still run!
