For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.
Have you tried unplugging everything, replugging it ( power and all)? Mine occasionally does something similar, or occasionally when it picks it up asks if I want to reformat it and usually killing it's power source for about 5 mins does the trick- no idea why as I don't think it ought to make a huge difference, but it does seem to work.
Question Author
Thanks for the suggestion NOX- it does seem to come on after several sw on sw off sequences....Can't help wondering if the power supply is beginning to fail...
Whatever the cause, to state the obvious, make sure anything you need kept is backed up now. May be worth running disk check software too after the back-up.
Question Author
The odd thing is -I have it running now -after many,many sw on/off attempts! I am also running a virus check too. I wish I knew if the problem was the enclosure itself- I never liked the sort of 'mushy' power switch since I got it....
Question Author
My virus check found one called 'class.zip' .....still ploughing through deleting free space on each partition before I try a shutdown & restart....
Question Author
Just in case anyone still following this....PROBLEM SOLVED! - After swapping drives over (I have two enclosures for backup) The 'problem' drive booted up normally, allowing me to conclude my suspicion for the enclosure being the culprit! I paid a bit more than I intended for a new enclosure from Maplin but still saved about £70 which I might have spent on a new terra bite SATA drive which was not required.....Thanks to all who responded!

Bulgarian MPs on Tough Debate of New Election Law
The Bulgarian Parliament has extended its working time till late in the evening as the second reading of the new Election Code is under way in plenary Wednesday.
Among the chief innovations and subjects of debate is the re-introduction of preferential voting for national and European elections.
Some MPs have vowed for the introduction of a number of MP seats to be filled using majority vote, but this is unlikely to pass.
The new Election Code was developed by an ad hoc committee chaired by Parliament Vice Speaker Maya Manolova, MP for the Bulgarian Socialist Party.
Critics have said that the draft law fails to introduce any major changes in Bulgaria's election system, which were deemed necessary by some.
Many have argued for the need for greater choice for voters, including less stringent requirements for the registration of independent candidates.
MPs from the informal ruling Bulgarian Socialist Party - Movement for Rights and Freedoms coalition hope for the new bill to enter into force for European Elections 2014 in May.
But it is expected that Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev will likely veto the act, which would then necessitate a reconsideration by Parliament.
End of January Plevneliev proposed that Parliament call a referendum asking Bulgarian voters to choose on three topics: the introduction of partial majority voting, obligatory voting, and electronic voting.
- » Ansbach Attacker Was to Be Deported to Bulgaria - German Officials
- » Bulgaria's Last King 'among Presidential Nominees' of Socialist Party
- » Court to Sit on Bulgarian DOST Party's Denied Registration
- » Bulgarians Expect Situation in Turkey to Worsen after Failed Coup Attempt - Poll
- » Bulgarian PM Warns of Rising Migration Pressure along Southern Border
- » Chief Prosecutor: 'Thin' Line between Anti-Terror Measures, Human Rights

I bought this game for my husband since he is a big Rune Factory fan and plays all the games. So far he's said this is one of his favorites. In his opinion, he likes this game and Rune Factory 4 better than any of the other ones. Definitely recommend!
Love the Rune Factory series and this is a great addition. Very different style than previous entries; but still overall a 5/5

We love egg-fu-yung, but not theirs. It's mushy and had just a few shrimp. The flavor was so-so and my wife had an upset stomach all night. The egg rolls were okay but priced way too high. We'll never go there again.
Ordered take out kung pao chicken and friend dumplings. I've done this a number of times before and it's been ok but this time, it was much better. Great flavor. I will do it again next time I am in town. Prices are very reasonable.
Don't waste your time and money. This place has changed. Went here tonight to celebrate the Lunar New Year. Big mistake. The wonton soup was lukewarm with 3 wontons in the bowl. The fried rice was a mess. The rice wasn't even fried. They took regular rice and doused soy sauce all over it and it was 10 bucks. They...
Went here for a family dinner and was served by an older Asian lady who was mean spirited and came across as bitter.

I told the owner it was my first time and I hoped the food was good. But I will definitely not return as it definitely didn't meet my expectations at all
We had the Wan-Fu family dinner as a take-out and selected Hot & Sour soup, and for entrees; Kungpao Chicken and Szechuan Beef. The food had little flavor other than a vague sweetness. The soup was the least Hot & Sour Ive ever had. We were surprised because we had visited the restaurant before and thought it was OK but...
Took the boys to Wan Fu last week. Had a very good meal! Lemon chicken is always good! Very lemony and I like the fact that is actually a chicken breast that is battered and then sliced instead of pieces or nuggets. We also got the Honey Walnut Shrimp and that too is one of my favorites! It doesn't look...
Lunch is our favorite time to go. Good prices & lots of food on lunch specials. Good spot with a group because of reasonable prices. Friendly family staff.
We order from Wan-Fu when we want Chinese delivery and have generally gotten fast service and the food is good and reliable. We love there egg rolls!
Very good food, excellent value on family special. Wife loves the won ton soup, personally the lemon chicken is my favorite. Been there five or six times in the last six months everytime walked out will satisfied bully and the next day's lunch.

Israel-Hamas ceasefire takes effect, holds
November 22, 2012 - 09:06 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Israel and Hamas have agreed to an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire accord to end a week of violence that resulted in nearly 160 deaths.
The ceasefire between appeared to be holding on Thursday, Nov 22. Israel radio said some rockets had been fired from Gaza, but there was no sign of an Israeli response., according to BBC News.
Overnight, thousands of Gaza residents poured on to the streets to celebrate, waving flags and setting off fireworks.
The UN Security Council has called on Israel and Hamas to uphold the agreement, brokered by Egypt.
In its first statement since the current flare-up began, the council also commended Egyptian President Mohammed Mursi and others involved in the diplomatic effort.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, who has been meeting regional leaders during the conflict, welcomed the ceasefire and said it was urgent that humanitarian aid be delivered to Gaza.
"We are all aware that there are many details that must be solidified for a broad, durable ceasefire to take firm hold over the longer term," he said. "It is imperative that both sides stick to the ceasefire in order to allow these underlying issues to be addressed."
The truce was announced in Cairo on Wednesday by Egyptian Foreign Minister Kamel Amr.
Alongside him was U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who had taken part in the negotiations, first in Jerusalem and later in Cairo.
Despite the ceasefire, Israeli schools within 40km of the Gaza Strip were being kept closed on Thursday as a precaution, the military said.
Israel says it targeted 1,500 "terror sites" during Operation Pillar of Defense.
It says its targets included 30 senior militants, 980 underground rocket launchers and 140 smuggling tunnels.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that, for the first time, militants in Gaza had fired long-range rockets, such as the Fajr-5, toward Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
A statement from the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he had agreed to a U.S. suggestion "to give a chance to Egypt's proposal for a ceasefire and so give an opportunity to stabilize the situation and calm it before there will be need to apply greater force".

[EDIT 1-9-08: Dug up this thread and decided it would work as the slice-of-life recommendation thread. For future posts in this thread, make sure they conform to the genre guidelines listed below.~Zalis]
I love it when the main character runs around the big city in "Whisper of the Heart" and also all the "talking to friends" and "sitting at home" stuff. Please give me some suggestions about Anime of the kind where there's no fantasy or violence but just pure "everyday" life. I like to see families, friends, school, dreams... Just like that "Whisper of the heart" movie I once saw. If there's some sort of "fantasy" or "magical" thing underneath it all like in that movie it's okay, but I really want it to be about a boy or girl with dreams, living his or her everyday life with friends, parties and stuff like that. I've heard of a show called "Honey and Clover"... is it good? And like that. And please post more shows for me to see.

You're definitely looking for the kind of anime that I like. I recommend Honey and Clover, my favourite anime, as well as both the two Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou OVAs.
You might also want to take a look at one of the public lists that I've put together: 幽勝 - Yuushou. This is a list of anime that focus more on a sense of quiet beauty and day-to-day existence, than on action. Some action does occur, occasionally, but it is very much peripheral to central theme of quietly reverential being.

I think Kokoro Library fits your criteria. It also is a non-fantasy type of anime, with simply modern everyday scenarios, in this case a library and a town.
It's a very nice feeling kind of anime, something to relax upon.

I enjoy action series like Scrapped Princess, Elfen Lied, and Wolf's Rain just as much anyone, but I'll always have a spot in my heart and my DVD shelves for these laidback, quiet, realistic series...
Probably the most "slice-of-life" anime that I've ever seen is Piano, which is about a junior-high school girl getting along with her family, going to piano lessons, having crushes, dealing with friends, and so forth.
There's also Boys Be, an anime about a few guys and the girls in their lives...pretty different from most anime romance/comedies, and no fantasy or excess fanservice.
Sentimental Journey and Diamond Daydreams are both based on dating-sim games, but instead of being angsty or full of fanservice, they're quiet, slow-paced, and episodic (split between multiple stories with no real main character or main plot) -- just a bunch of stories about different girls and their lives and romantic involvements.
Suzuka has many trappings of standard shounen harem anime (one guy, lots of girls, guy lives near these girls, etc.), but it's not as crazy as Love Hina--you get to see the life of an average guy, who goes to school, likes girls, has crushes on girls, goes on dates, goes to school activities, wants to excel in track and field...sure, there's some sadness and melodrama, but it's a solid school/romance story underneath.

|Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. I haven't seen the second OVA yet but this thing has to be the epiphany of "relaxation" and "slice of life" in anime if I've ever seen one. Although something this laid back I didn't think would appeal to me, I enjoyed it. It's best watched when alone and preferably a day off when you have nothing to do, you will enjoy it the most then. It seems to have a greater effect on me when like that.

I would suggest Zettai Shonen. Although it has to do with UFOs, a huge part of the story revolves around a group of kids living an everyday life, with a myserious ufo storyline attached to it. There's no action really. I haven't seen whisper of the heart, but it seems to be the same sort of thing. Give it a look, becasue it sounds like exactly what you're looking for.
Also if you like Whisper of the Heart, try Only Yesterday, also from Ghibli.
edit:I can't believe I forgot Windy Tales!. This is another anime that matches what you're looking for, although this also has a bit of fantasy in it. It's about three kids who gain the power to control the wind, and the everyday events that happen to them.

ARIA The ANIMATION sounds like it might appeal to you. It's a nice, slow-paced 13 episode slice-of-life seinen (aimed at young men) anime that takes place in the... well, I'm not exactly sure of the year, but it takes place in the far future, when humans have cultivated Mars and turned it into a habitable planet. Don't get me wrong though, it isn't sci-fi or anything like that. It's a nice, light, feel-good series. Plus, the art and landscapes are very pretty.
The only thing I don't get about this anime is why all the girls' names start with A. lol.
Anyway, if you happen to like ARIA The ANIMATION, rejoice, because there's a second season coming out in April called "ARIA The NATURAL".

Here is Greenwood might interest you. It follows a couple of friends at a boarding school and their personal problems. It starts out mostly comedy but also has a slice of life aspect to it.
Also, Nana is going to premiere shortly, and that its also an interesting "big city" anime. You might want to read the manga if you are more interested.

If you liked Whisper of the Heart then you absolutely have to watch The Cat Returns. The cat she writes about in WotH plays a major role in TCR. It's not perhaps quite what you are asking for but still an obvious recommendation.
Figure 17 shows the everyday life of a shy young girl who ends up with a surprise twin, mixed in with fighting alien monsters. That might not sound like what you are asking for but believe me, it's a really touching slice of life drama. It's very much an exploration of what happens when the main character suddenly find herself with a twin, who quickly becomes her close friend and confidante. How does she react to and cope with this major change in her life?
Zettai Shonen is also somewhat science fictional (or perhaps that should be science fantasy). However, to get the best out of the story I would recommend focusing your attention on the characters. You might think ZS is about the mystery of the material fairies but no, that way lies disappointment. Stay focused on the characters to the end (Stay on target, stay on target).
Suzuka is a bit on the melodramatic side but people do seem to identify strongly with the main characters. Starts off rather weakly and the animation is uneven but stick around until the end of episode six and you should be hooked. No doubt the surprise anime hit of 2005. If you come to like the actress who voices Suzuka you'll have an additional incentive to watch Zettai Shonen.
Slow Step is not actually that slow since they have to cram the manga volumes into five episodes. Somewhat kooky high schoolers with everyday dreams, and a girl who by chance and mischief ends up posing as two girls.
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou has been recommended by a number of people. However, if you haven't read the superb manga I strongly suspect you will find the anime version plain boring. It's pretty much geared towards the existing fans of YKK (fans like me). Read the manga regardless of whether you are planning to watch the anime version or not. It's just that great.
From what I hear it's the same with Aria, though I'll have to stress the fact that I haven't seen the anime (but the manga is certainly great).
Boys Be starts off rather silly, although it gets more serious in the second half. I can't claim I enjoyed it that much but it certainly contains a fair amount of slice-of-life stuff. That I rate it as high as I do (Decent) is because of the last episode where Megumi Hayashibara turns out a bravura performance as a Fenno-Japanese painter.
A classic of anime is Maison Ikkoku. It has really great animation and art, and plenty of what you look for. Personally I thought the story verged a bit on the boring side at times and that the original manga was clearly better. Still, most people really like the show.
You might also want to check out The Star of Cottonland. It's an oddball movie about a little kitten. All the cats look like humans with tails and cat ears (nekomimi = catgirl) although humans in the anime perceive them as normal cats. The slice of life element in this movie lies as much with the owners of the kitten as in the kitten doing all the things little kittens do (with us hearing every thought). I suspect people will either find TSoC utterly charming or just plain boring.
Anyway, I started with cats and so I end with cats.

Another thread got me thinking about anime where by the time it ends, you really feel like the cast of characters are like your friends and/or family. I absolutely love it when the characters are so realistic that you feel like you're hanging out with them during the show to.
Some of the first that come to mind for me include Noein, Cromartie High School,and Planetes.
Noein has such a realistic casts of late elementary/early middle school, that it reminded me of being back in elementary school and snooping through the woods, hanging out and having fun with friends (except this was before everyone had cell phones). Sure, I lived in a rural area surrounded by trees and not a small city, but the similarities were still there for me regardless because it was about the kids and hanging out realistically, not the city.
Cromartie High School was a bit more unusual in that if I honestly were around people that dumb, I might go insane, but it felt to me like hanging around completely unpredictable morons in a fun way. It somewhat reminded me of my friends in high school, except with lower IQs, a Gorilla, a robot, and Freddie Mercury. It also reminds me a little of game Bully, where I also felt like a part of the game. Cromarite High's opening theme aided in sucking me into its insane world.
Planetes felt more like family than friends here. Watching the bond made between all the main characters develop sucked me into their bonds too. Because we learned of the characters intimate pasts and secrets, which in real life, we normally know only of very close people like family or life-long friends, it felt like the characters were inviting us into the family and it felt real as a result. The part where spoiler[Ai almost dies due to oxygen deprivation on the moon and ended up in a wheelchair due to some damage made me feel so crushed like I might for a real family member.]

A lot of what you're mentioning sounds like the "Slice-of-Life" genre. A genre where many a viewer often develops a strong liking for the characters because of the realism in their depictions and such. As a result, I'm taking the liberty of merging your thread into this one.
By the way, this thread is in dire need of some more recommendations, so let me add:
Great Teacher Onizuka - My favorite title of the genre about a wild, rambunctious former gang leader gone teacher. At first he's doing it just to get laid by schoolgirls. But we later find out he's much, much more that just a 22 year-old virgin with blond hair and an attitude. As he inherits the worst class in the school, we see him emerge as total bad-ass teacher who compensates for his lack of book smarts with street smarts and a peculiar tendency for bringing out the good in people. Takagi Wataru, his seiyuu, is absolutely hilarious in the role and very charismatic to boot. This is a guaranteed hit for anyone looking to enjoy a high school comedy with lots of quirky characters (and those classic Onizuka faces).
Ouran High School Host Club - I was hesitant at first. The idea of a reverse harem made me scoff and give very little thought to enjoy this series, but they sure proved me wrong. While very shoujo-esque, the comedy itself counters such sentiment with a great mix of parody, satire, and slice-of-life in between. Despite the gimmicky feel of all the hosts in the club, their characters feel genuine enough and explore just the right amount of real-life drama to actually make me care for them. Plus, many of the situations are damn, over-the-top hilarious. A bit too cutesy for some (Honey), perhaps, but I had no problems with the overall atmosphere. The developing romance is probably the greatest aspect of it all. Not that it developed in such a way that really captivates you, but the circumstances from the comedy and the way it just happens to turn out felt refreshing. Highly recommended.
Azumanga Daioh - The main cast of girls may throw most people off, but their characters are very endearing and full of quirky humor that will have you laughing your ass off, and often. Like Seinfeld, it's a show about nothing. You just see these girls living their lives in high school, but with a few zany moments and random trains of thought thrown in. It's actually rather difficult to explain. So I recommend just watching it and letting series do the talking. I rarely give comedy shows a Masterpiece rating. But other than this, Ouran, and GTO, AzuDai gave me many, many laughs, in addition to making me feel.. good, happy, exalted, etc.!
Nodame Cantabile - I've only seen 4 and a half episodes up to this day, but have read the manga a bit further. And I must say, from what I've gathered, it's shaping up to be a very lovely romantic comedy with nice jousei feel and more mature outlook than I'm used to. The artwork is very Honey & Clover-ish and I especially like the musical aspect. On top of that, it also stars two of my favorite seiyuu in Seki Tomokazu and Kawasumi Ayako. Dang, I need to get back to the rest of the series and live-action.
BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad - Another music-themed anime, but with ROCK instead of classical. I was blown away when I first watched it. The characters felt so real and empathic that I wanted to learn guitar myself and aspire to be the next big rockstar!... But anyway, the characters really do grow on you throughout the whole series. It's a somewhat "rags to riches" story of a kid who has really low self-esteem, but finds solace in life through the power of rock music, and things just take off from there. Again, this is another one of those anime that's hard to just "explain." This one, you have to hear. Audio is a big, big proponent of this particular series. Another of my few Masterpieces.

I second the ARIA the Animation recommendation. If you're hooked after watching the first season, you should check out the second (ARIA the Natural) and third (ARIA the Origination) seasons. Both seasons follow a standard slice-of-life format- each episode is a story in itself, and the story doesn't really progress beyond each individual episode. And don't forget the OVA (ARIA the OVA ~Arietta~)- I highly recommend watching that one too, especially if you're an Alicia fan, like me
Another slice-of-life worth checking out is Hidamari Sketch and sequel Hidamari Sketch x 365. The main character, Yuno, moves into the Hidamari Apartments across the road from the art school she just got accepted into. Living at the Hidamari Apartments, Yuno meets other interesting characters (who become the main characters you'll see constantly throughout the series). This series is mainly about her (Yuno's) everyday adventures/experiences living at the Hidamari Apartments and studying at the art school. And for some strange reason, x 365's style screams spoiler[SAYONARA ZETSUBOU SENSEI!!] at me everytime I watch it. I think it's just me.
If you're looking for something newer, try Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto ~Natsu no Sora~ (currently airing in Japan). Suzuki Sora, a girl from the countryside, moves to Tokyo after being accepted into a mage school in the city. It's worth watching even just for the movie-quality visuals.

I'm going to go ahead and add a couple more which came out recently.
Spice and Wolf revolves arround a trader of goods who encounters a female wolf god named Horo. In exchange for a ride she agrees to help him out with his bussiness dealings. It has elements of the fantasy genre as well but is mostly a slice of life character drama with a little economics thrown in.
Kurenai is another I'd recomend. Heavily character oriented and gives you that slice of life feel. It also has plenty of great humor and some neat action. It's about Shinkuro Kurenai who works as negotiator of disputes. However his job gets more dangerous when he accepts a bodyguard job for a little girl named Murasaki Kuhoin who's run away from her family.

The Aria series are really good, my friends and I enjoyed watching the whole thing in one sitting.
Although, there are a few anime 'Slice-of-life' series that I haven't seen anyone post yet that I would like for people take a look see.
I strongly recommend the series:
Bamboo Blade- The series is interesting enough with the girls and their coach trying to get through the year as members of a kendo club. Even though, I could go for Suzuka, I find this series so entertaining because all the characters have their own issues, but the one thing they have in common is the only thing that puts them in place.
Minami-ke- I really like the first season more than the second, but it was sure fun just watching the antics of the Minami sisters. Although the three sisters are main characters of the anime, there are a bunch of supporting characters that helps the series along to continue until the end of the second season.
The one's that I put in a box or at my side-pocket, but still good enough to watch:
Ichigo Mashimaro- Although, some of the resemblance of the series Minami-ke is there, it's just a softer side in life which makes the difference between the two.
Hidamari Sketch- This series is just a bit touching, more cuddly to my heart because I majored in arts, but concerning to the people I knew who saw the series... they thought it was an adorable story.

Jean Charest: "This is great news for Canadian jobs"
OTTAWA, Aug. 6, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - Jean Charest joins other Canadian leaders in welcoming agreement on final text of the Canada-EU free trade agreement.
"Many in business and in government have been encouraging a comprehensive trade and investment agreement between Canada and Europe for years", said Charest, chair of the Partnership for Resource Trade. "The progress this week represents great news for Canadian workers, consumers and employers."
"Canada is now well positioned in a world of increasingly interdependent economies where each country must work to strengthen trade and ensure its fluidity. The rising economic and political power of emerging economies have weighed heavily in the decision of the United States and the EU to enter into trade negotiations last year, with the goal of delivering an agreement aimed at greater reciprocal access to their respective markets."
"This announcement is a great step to promote our economic interests and our common democratic values, defend the sovereignty of our states and ensure a prosperous future for our children."
"This agreement represents a new generation of treaties and make the most of globalization within our respective economies. It will not only allow us to deal with all trade issues (including tariffs, rules of origin, investment and government procurement), but it will also allow us to address the human and social dimensions of our relationship, particularly in regard to the environment, research, innovation and culture."
"This agreement opening new trade opportunities in a market the size of Europe should allow for greater diversification of our economy and give stronger incentives to the development of our businesses, products and services."
"With 500 million people and $17 trillion GDP, the European Union is the world's largest integrated economy area, and Canada's second-largest trading partner. CETA means opportunities for Canadian exporters, importers and consumers, and is forecast to deliver a 20% boost in bilateral trade, the equivalent of creating almost 80,000 jobs."

I couldn't dream of doing something like this. His partner accepted an invitation to participate in doing this with just a phone call while he was at work the same day they did it. There are people among us, who look like us who are apparently 'inches' away from choosing to do something like this. I have to imagine they are born with different wiring or different programming in the brain. These kinds of people have so little regard for others.

The son and his wife were apparently tied up by Bond and Rettig, and it was
reported that on Jan. 16, the son's wife then testifies in court that:
"Before the men left, she said they told her and her husband to tell police that three black men had been inside the home. They said they had her husband's identification and their address and threatened to come to their home if they told police anything else."
If the son and his wife actually told the police the false story about three black inside the home, then as far as I am concerned, that son and wife got just what they deserved by subsequently being charged with murder. And, the time they spent in jail was justly deserved also.

I feel such sorrow for all the Mortensens have been through; not just the horrific murder, but the wrongful imprisonment of two innocent family members. And to think that the murderer, Bond, is the son of a good friend of the victim! Both families must be in much pain. Kay Mortensen owned many firearms and no doubt possessed the skill to use them. But when you invite a friend's child into your home, you have no reason to suspect he'll take your life. I am blown away by this case and the ignorance, viciousness and evilness of Martin Bond and Ben Rettig.

Panasonic Lumix GX85 ( black)
Panasonic's inexpensive sibling to its GX8 interchangeable-lens model has a a new sensor and updated image-stabilization system as well.
Panasonic Lumix ZS100 ( black)
The Pansonic ZS100 offers great blend of quality, size and features for people who want better photos and are willing to trade off a little quality for a lot of lens.
Panasonic Lumix FZ300
The Panasonic Lumix FZ300 might not be a huge update from its predecessor, the FZ200, but it's still one of the best in its class and a fantastic option for a single camera for photos and video -- even in the rain.
Panasonic Lumix G7 ( with 14-140mm lens, black)
A great mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera for families and travelers, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 is a compelling alternative to similarly priced dSLRs.
Panasonic Lumix GX8 ( body only, black)
Incorporating all of Panasonic's latest technology, including a brand new 20-megapixel Four Thirds sensor, the Lumix GX8 finally challenges Olympus' OM-D lineup.
Panasonic Lumix FZ1000
With excellent photo and video quality and a deep feature set, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000 is the perfect mix if you want dSLR-like controls and better than point-and-shoot performance with the convenience of a single fixed lens.
Panasonic Lumix CM1
While the Panasonic Lumix CM1 is undeniably pricey and bulky, its wealth of photography kit helps it achieve image quality that's unrivalled in the smartphone world. If you love the idea of always having a great camera to hand but don't want to be weighed down with two devices, the Lumix CM1 is the phone for you.
Panasonic Lumix GF7 ( with 12-32mm lens, pink)
There's just enough new here to make this interchangeable-lens model worth a look.
Panasonic Lumix ZS50 ( Black)
Announced at CES 2015, Panasonic has dropped the resolution of its popular compact travel zoom from 18 megapixels to 12 increasing pixel size for better results regardless of lighting conditions.
Panasonic Lumix LX100 ( black)
With really good photo and video quality, a great set of features and generally class-leading performance, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 is probably one of our favorite compact cameras ever. It's not for the inexperienced, though.

The Greatest Show on Earth : The Evidence for Evolution
List price: US$30.00
Currently unavailable
AbeBooks may have this title (opens in new window).Try AbeBooks
Richard Dawkins transformed our view of God in his blockbuster, "The God Delusion, "which sold more than 2 million copies in English alone. He revolutionized the way we see natural selection in the seminal bestseller "The Selfish Gene." Now, he launches a fierce counterattack against proponents of "Intelligent Design" in his latest "New York Times "bestseller, "The Greatest Show on Earth." "Intelligent Design" is being taught in our schools; educators are being asked to "teach the controversy" behind evolutionary theory. There is no controversy. Dawkins sifts through rich layers of scientific evidence--from living examples of natural selection to clues in the fossil record; from natural clocks that mark the vast epochs wherein evolution ran its course to the intricacies of developing embryos; from plate tectonics to molecular genetics--to make the airtight case that "we find ourselves perched on one tiny twig in the midst of a blossoming and flourishing tree of life and it is no accident, but the direct consequence of evolution by non-random selection." His unjaded passion for the natural world turns what might have been a negative argument, exposing the absurdities of the creationist position, into a positive offering to the reader: nothing less than a master's vision of life, in all its splendor.show more

Community shows off its attractions through a 21st century scavenger hunt
Submitted: 07/22/2013
Story By Lauren Stephenson
- Take a scavenger hunt. Give it a 21st century twist, and you get Geocaching.
"Geocaching is a very inexpensive opportunity for the people in town to get together with their families and do something else without having the computer screens always in front of the kids," says Arlyne Becker, Phound It in Phelps co-coordinator."
Arlyne and her husband recently organized a free Geocaching event in Phelps.
Treasure hunters take a list of coordinates and use their GPS's to find containers like this called Geocaches.
"They have little trinkets and stuff in there that you can trade," Becker says.
Once you find a Geocache, you take a trinket out, and put one in.
That way the Geocache remains full for others.
"It's fun to do that because I really like finding things," says 6-year-old Abraham Meinka.
Abraham and his dad, Kevin, play this never-ending game in Wisconsin and their home state of Michigan.
"I like to get him out into a wild area to have him experience nature. I think he has a good time finding things and looking for them," Kevin says.
Geocaching isn't just a fun, inexpensive way to get the family outdoors.
It also helps them find some of their new favorite places.
"You get out into these parks and wild areas that you would not know about except for you're there geocaching and some of them, you know, we now regular because they're just such interesting, neat places," Kevin Meinka says.
The 21st century scavenger hunt started in 2000 in Oregon.
Since then, it's expanded worldwide.
Now there are more than 2 million Geoecaches located around the world.
Arlyne lives in West Bend now but decided to organize the event in her hometown to show people what Phelps has to offer.
"The people that have come in here, a lot of them have been, 'We've heard about it. We don't know what it is. We're from Chicago. You know, get us going on this. And what a perfect opportunity for them all to get to try it," Becker says.
Those geocachers can now put Phelps on the worldwide geocaching map.

First annual mud run draws hundreds of participants
Submitted: 07/23/2016
- The first annual Legionnaire Mud Challenge made its way to Crandon Saturday.
The International Off-Road Raceway welcomed nearly 200 participants ready to get down and dirty.
Men and women of all ages were brought together by the desire to work up a sweat.
"There's not a lot of opportunities like this in the northwoods, so it's always great to see one pop up," said Justin Lund.
He's an experienced obstacle course athlete and came in first in the men's 10k.
And for the women, Sheila Reynolds also took first place.
"It's fun and then you get other people running and you're encouraging them along in a way. It's just a great atmosphere," said Reynolds.
Athletes participating in the mud challenge had the option of running as an individual or on a team. When registering, they chose between the 5k or 10k.
Not only are these athletes getting all muddy as they're going through the race, they also have to climb over obstacles like these barrels of hay.
Some of the obstacles included a tire wall, slip n' slide, and muddy wet puddles to get through.
"I talked to a lot of the runners before we went and they said that the obstacles were tough and they really liked the course," said Beaver, one of four runners on a team.
Beaver and The Boys completed the course with only a few setbacks along the way.
"I lost my shoe in the middle of it and had to go back and find it," he said.
Athletes had to get up and over more than 15 obstacles throughout the race.
All the money raised will go to the Northwoods United Way and American Cancer Society.
The second annual Legionnaire Mud Challenge will take place next year.
