American magazine Complex have put together a new feature listing the 20 most expensive domain names ever sold. If you're big in online business, then having the right domain to drive relevant traffic to your site is hugely important. As a result easy to remember and simple web addresses such as shop.com or clothes.com can go for vast amount of money. The people who benefit from this? Those who were smart enough to grab all the addresses before the Internet really took off, such as "domainer" Kevin Ham who now earns over $70 million USD a year. Take a look at the top five below and read the full post here.
Insure.com - $16 million USD Sex.com - $13 million USD Fund.com - $9.99 million USD Porn.com - $9.5 million USD Business.com - $7.5 million USD

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 97reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by gordongekko I received my Apple iPad mini 16GB with wif-fi (white) as a birthday present. This is the best birthday present I have ever received! The device is small and lightweight, but with the same size screen as the iPad. Battery life is 8 - 10 hours depending on usage. It is very simple to setup and use. You use just like your iPhone, but it is bigger! Now, I will take the mini instead of my laptop on trips. Thanks, Apple! 01/25/2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by EdP852 Love it and can't put it down! Had 1st gen iPad. Sold it and bought a mini. Much better size and way more portable. 01/21/2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by SLC1486 Very happy with product, not sure if I like the way the parental controls are set up. But that could be the the operator (me) and I just don't get it. 01/17/2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by bhaynes Great item I love my iphone but I always wished it was bigger. this is perfect. All the features of an iphone and more! 01/31/2013

The gala will honor the traditions of the workshop by recognizing former Director Bea Hamlin. Hamlin directed the workshop from 1969 to 2005, sending hundreds of Santa Barbara and Goleta children off to a strong start in their school careers. At the same time, she educated the workshop parents and families in early childhood development and guidance. Throughout her tenure at SMPCW, Hamlin, along with Assistant Directors Paula Phillips, Derry Godar, Jan Kovarick and Diane Gonzales, created a safe and supportive environment at the school and by doing so, instilled confidence and caring in many parents and children in the community.? They created a safe and supportive environment at SMPCW and by doing so, instilled confidence and caring in many parents and children in the?community.
The event will be professionally catered by former SMPCW parent, Lara Mislang, with a menu that includes crab cakes with roasted red-pepper aioli, filet mignon toasts with horseradish cream & arugula, balsamic-glazed tri-color beets topped with gorgonzola mousse and much more. Local wines and beers will also be?featured.
There will be something for everyone in the live and silent auctions. The wide variety of items includes a sculpture by renowned Santa Barbara artist Bud Bottoms, Disneyland and Sea World tickets, sky diving certificates, many local restaurant certificates, gym memberships, jewelry, local services and?more!
Come to the oceanfront event Saturday March 2nd 4-7pm at the Cabrillo Arts Pavilion- raise a glass to Bea Hamlin and Paula Phillips and help raise funds for San Marcos Parent-Child Workshop. This is a 21 and over event. Tickets are $20 at the?door.
About San Marcos Parent-Child?Workshop
The San Marcos Parent-Child Workshop is a licensed, cooperative preschool and parent education program instructed by the Continuing Education division of Santa Barbara Community?College.
It is operated by parents under the supervision of an Instructor and the Assistant Director educated in Early Childhood Education and Parent Education. Parents from each family participate actively one morning a week in the preschool setting. Parents also attend a weekly evening parent education class at the school, where a curriculum of child development and parenting issues are discussed and speakers from the community share their?expertise.
The school is located on the San Marcos High School campus within its own site. The program interfaces with the high school early childhood education class where students spend one hour and forty five minutes daily at the?preschool.
The purpose of the preschool is to introduce children ages 2.5-5 years to a high quality preschool experience, using developmentally appropriate practices. The nurturing, loving environment makes an ideal first school experience for the children and brings out the best in?parents.

A report out of the Far East claims that iPad mini display supplier AU Optronics has started development of screen technology to be used in the next-generation of Apple's mid-sized tablet.
Buried at the end of a report regarding AU's iPad mini display yields, DigiTimes claims the Taiwanese company is "working on" panels for an expected follow-up to the 7.9-inch tablet. It should be noted that the publication has a rocky track record with Apple hardware rumors, but its reports on display-centric news has been somewhat accurate. Little is known of the supposed next-generation technology, though AU is currently supplying Apple with AH-VA wide-angle panels for the iPad mini, compared to the IPS components from LG.
Earlier in February, supply chain sources claimed AU was already in the pilot production stage for manufacturing Retina panels bound for the second-generation device
Many analysts expect the next iPad mini iteration to include a Retina display as Apple continues to deploy the high-resolution screens across its various product lines. Pricing remains a concern, however, as industry watchers estimate a Retina version could raise the bill of materials by more than 30 percent. Traditionally, when a new generation Apple product is launched, it retains the same price as its predecessor.
As for the current iPad mini, AU has reportedly overcome yield issues to reach one million panel shipments, easing the supply bottleneck that affected sales of the tablet since launch. The company is said to have managed higher yields as of the first quarter, with the rates expected to continue throughout the year.
It was reported earlier on Tuesday that Apple had finally caught up with high demand for its 7.9-inch tablet, as the product showed "In Stock" availability on the company's online storefront.
Feb. 15, 2013 ? Organic semiconductors hold promise for making low-cost flexible electronics -- conceivably video displays that bend like book pages or roll and unroll like posters, or wearable circuitry sewn into uniforms or athletic wear. Researchers have demonstrated the ability to "print" transistors made of organic crystals on flexible plastic sheets, using technology that resembles inkjet or gravure printing.
However, for the technology's potential to be realized, scientists have to show that these organic semiconductors will withstand the rugged handling they invite -- they will need to perform reliably in spite of frequent flexing and sharp bending.
In an article published Dec. 11, 2012 in Nature Communications, scientists led by Rutgers University physicist Vitaly Podzorov report they have demonstrated extremely flexible organic semiconductors that withstood multiple bending cycles in which the devices were rolled to a radius as small as 200 micrometers. The scientists worked with numerous crystalline devices they made and found no degradation in their performance.
Podzorov claims his is the first rigorous study of solution-crystallized organic semiconductors under various types of strain -- sharp bending and repeated flexing along with compression and stretching. He acknowledges some earlier encouraging studies of mechanical robustness, but felt those lacked rigorous tests of flexibility involving different types of organic semiconductors, especially those that show the most promise for development of low-cost printed electronics. The scientists at Rutgers focused on two soluble small molecules (developed in the group of Prof. John Anthony at the University of Kentucky), depositing and crystallizing them on thin plastic sheets from solution, and claim the results should apply to numerous other organic formulations that researchers are investigating.
