INDEX TRAUB: World Leaders in Precision Turning Technology
The new 65mm R200 Turning/ Milling Center produces precision workpieces nearly twice as fast as any conventional turn-mill. Two powerful 18,000-rpm milling spindles moving freely in the Y and B axes and two moveable 5000-rpm work spindles both rough-machine and fine-turn in two independent subsystems at the same time. And the R200 can do 5-axis work on both spindles simultaneously.
Quick and precise with a huge tool capacity: The surprisingly affordable TRAUB TNL18 is a sliding headstock automatic and a CNC single-spindle bar automatic in one.Changing over in only minutes, the TNL18 can put 3 tools in the cut at once, features a quick-positioning top tool turret with a larger tool capacity than any gang carrier--up to 24 tools--and chip-to-chip time of 0.3 sec. A counterspindle with large X/Y/Z axis travels includes a 7-station tool carrier, each tool can be equipped with multiple holders.
The INDEX MultiLine combines the benefits of traditional high production multispindle automatics with the benefits of modern CNC technology.
The newest addition to the line is the affordable MS40, another member of the long line of leading INDEX multispindles featuring unmatched versatilty, quick changeover,and wide open work area for easy access and superior chip shedding.
For nearly unlimited operations on small workpieces from bar up to 40mm or for chucking up to 120mm, the MS40 feratures six fully independent liquid-cooled hollow-shaft CNC spindle drives each capable of 7000 rpm. The MS40C can be equipped with up to 35 axes, 12 identical CNC tool carriers with 1 or 2 axes plus 1 or 2 synchronized spindles with 150mm travel in Z and up to 6 tools for backworking.

Why Shops Are Looking More to Swiss-Types
These days, more traditional job shops are installing—or at least eyeing—Swiss-types. Here are some reasons why.
Sliding Headstock Automatic for Swiss and Production Turning
The TRAUB TNL18 production turning machine is capable of five-axis machining of 20-mm-diameter bar for long and short parts in a single setup.
Sliding Headstock Automatic Lathes
The TNL18 and the TNL18P are sliding headstock automatic lathes designed to be changed over quickly to produce precision parts with or without a guide bushing.
Sliding Headstock Automatic for Swiss and Production Turning
The Traub TNL18 P production turning machine is capable of five-axis machining in a single setup.

Turn-Mill With New Fanuc CNC
The C100 series of production turn-mill centers features the Fanuc 31i CNC option. With three 14-position tool turrets and identical main and counterspindles, the centers are designed for fast, cost-competitive production of medium-complexity turned parts from barstock ranging from 30 to 42 mm diameter, the company says. Said to be ideal for small- to medium-lot sizes, the three-turret machines deliver high performance within a small footprint, and are targeted to handle fixed-headstock work often run on Swiss-type machines.
High Production Turn-Mill Centers
The C100 series of production turn-mill centers are versatile, high production machines linked in real-time to the company's Virtual Machine programming and simulation suite. Virtual Machine includes user software that is a mirror of the real machine configuration. The data allow users to program, set up and operate the "virtual machine" in exactly the same way as the real machine.

Remodelling our bathroom! Advice and ideas needed!
Would love some input! We are remodelling out master bathroom ourselves. I know this is very general but we are in the beginning stages and will be starting this week with buying everything and demolition.
Would love input from anyone that has gone through this - what things did you do that worked really well? What did you wish you would have done? What did you do that you wish you hadn't? I am hoping these boards will be a good place to get help and input throughout our adventure in bathroom remodelling!
Feb 27, 2013, 11:39 PM
Advice from a pro who has remodeled more bathrooms than I can remember:
Do not start this weekend until you have answered all your questions. At the very least you need to have all your major fixtures and materials on order and on hand before getting started. Beyond that, make an honest assessment of your skills. If there is any areas that you are lacking be it plumbing, electrical, drywall etc. then find some subcontractors and revise your schedule.
Bathrooms and kitchens are the hardest remodels to do. If you haven't tackled a project like this before then you MUST work from a careful plan.
Feb 28, 2013, 12:12 AM
Bathrooms and kitchens are the hardest to remodel because there is so much going on with such a small space. So it takes careful planning. (oops, sorry Jaybee, I just noticed I kind of quoted you). But it can be done even by a novice with some skills.
People like dual sinks for one thing, and if there is room, I like to make sure the tub is a 6 ft instead of a standard 5. But it all depends on how big the bathroom is -- so you might want to give us the sizes of what you have to work with.
Also, a 6 ft high, or more, towel cabinet, towel bars, seperate shower stall, roman bathtub, nice tile job, and try to eliminate any window that is in a shower area (will lead to problems down the road).
And speaking of problems, Price Pfister faucets are known to be a problematic pain in the oops. I'm a particular fan of Moen, and there are other good ones out there.
And if you want a "toilet closet", building code requires a minimum of 15 inches from the center of the toilet to any side wall. Shoot for 18 inches as being the minimum. And update your wiring to meet modern codes. The newer hair dryers can trip a 15 amp breaker, code requires a 20 amp in bathrooms.

Ok! About two months later, we are almost done! I appreciate all of the advice I received from the boards I posted on!
We thought we could just rip everything out and do things as we went along. Instead, we had a guy come and measure for a vanity and had it specially made. We had a guy who came in and did most of the work but we still had to go to the hardware store and search online for odds and ends.
A couple things we purchased that I am so happy about are:
A "standard" bathtub with jets! Love it!
A heated towel bar - I never thought I'd want something like that!
We went for heated floors - loooovvvvee them!
A longer overflow gasket. I know it's not a heated towel bar or anything but during the construction but after the tub was installed, my son took a bath and the dining room below got wet. What the heck? A little setback but nothing we couldn't fix!
Ultimate Overflow Gasket
New towels! Love these!
Front Gate Towels
What a pain it all was but so glad it is over!

A tip of the hat to executive director Lauren Ellis and volunteer leaders of the United Way of Stephens County's 2013-14 campaign.
A nicely coordinated effort to assist the organization's 16 member agencies is working well. To date, 65 percent of the campaign's $350,000 goal has been raised. That translates into $227,500.
Now is the time to dig deeply. Exceeding the goal assists many in our communities who need a helping hand.
United Way agencies need your help
A tip of the hat to executive director Lauren Ellis and volunteer leaders of the United Way of Stephens County's 2013-14 campaign.
- Opinion
Governor, state Legislature have misplaced priorities
If the Oklahoma State Legislators and our Governor spent less time interfering in women's rights to manage their bodies, creating ways to lay more taxes and fees on the middle class in order to generate more tax breaks which benefit only the wealthy while also conceiving methods with which to fill Oklahoma's for-profit prisons, they would be doing all of us a favor. Instead, why not work to enhance funding for our schools and wage increases for all school employees? While reforming the state's educational budget, why don't they approve wage increases for our Oklahoma State Troopers and enlarge their Academy to insure qualified individuals are ready to fill the upcoming vacancies as many of the older force retire?
Self government key to keeping politicians in check
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that federal campaign laws that limit the total amount of money donors can give to political parties, committees and candidates for federal office (U.S. House, Senate, and President) was unconstitutional. The ruling will not increase the current $2,600 limit on how much a donor can give to a federal candidate in each primary and general election or the $32,400 limit that can go to a national party committee. Those limits are still in place. The ruling will instead remove the limit on how many candidates/committees to which a donor can contribute.
Legislative goals crucial to priorities in education
I am a member of several professional organizations where I attend regular meetings, network with colleagues, and stay abreast and informed on education best practices. The Cooperative Council for Oklahoma School Administration, better known as CCOSA, is a nonprofit organization that establishes close and continuous communication and cooperation between educators, taxpayers, and legislators to improve the effectiveness of professional school administrators and to communicate the needs of schools. Attendance this time of year is especially critical because legislators are in session.
An impressive ranking that could be better
That Duncan was named one of the best 15 communities in Oklahoma by Movoto, a national Real Estate company, is news worth celebrating.
Of 43 places with population of 10,000 or more, as determined by the U.S. Census data, Duncan finished 15th. Norman was first, Edmond second, Yukon and Moore tied for third and Bethany was fifth.
Kids shouldn't have to pay for having punster parents
Friends and neighbors, I've been cloistered in my Thought Chamber for the past few days, contemplating many high-brow philosophies and haughty hypothesis that we who think on a different level use to exercise our finely-tuned minds and remain intellectually superior to the Great Unwashed.
As you see, the time alone has been intellectually beneficial. I just composed an opening sentence (what we in the journalism dodge call a "lead") that's 46 words long.
The blissful serenity of No-TV Land
Life without TV is possible. Maybe you should try it. I did. It's a do-able thing, I tell you. I'm still here, no worse the wear, no oozing wounds, no serious loss of brainwave activity except for the slow, inexorable downhill decline that already started when TV viewing was a daily occurrence.
Granted, two months without the tube is quite likely not a scientifically acceptable sample from which is to hold forth. But it's the best I can do, so deal with it.
Cooper's message is to remain active
Dr. Kenneth Cooper, the Dallas physician who coined the phrase "aerobics" more than four decades ago, who has become a world leader in physical fitness and who has saved, literally, thousands of lives by promoting the value of an active lifestyle, shared his philosophy of life here last week.
Time to take the "B" out of the "Three R's"
Our young folks are hitting the stretch drive toward the end of another school year, during which they've been taught "Three R's", which are not really "r's" at all.
In case you missed it, reading is the only one of the "Three R's" that actually begins with the letter "r." Writing starts with a "w" and arithmetic begins with the letter "a." There are two reasons we drop the "w" from "writing" and the "a" from "arithmetic": 1. For poetic flow in the age-old saying; and, 2. many people have a secret yen to talk like the Beverly Hillbillies.
Thank you for lettin' me be myself again
Friends and neighbors, hope I don't sound like the biggest egomaniac since Donald Trump, but you know, I am the most interesting person I've ever known.
Forgive me if — on first blush — that sounds like the most totally self-aggrandizing statement you've ever heard. And if you've headed to the restroom to express an editorial opinion about the statement above, I'll stop for a couple minutes.
Buzz misfired in Vanity Fair body slam of Duncan
As the new kid in town, I'm reluctant to leap atop the ramparts to defend the honor of Duncan, Okla., my new adopted hometown.
But to heck with that. When an out-of-towner comes into your house and soils your rug, it's on.
I speak, of course, about the article in Vanity Fair magazine about Duncan and the killing last year of Chris Lane, the Australian who was gunned down in August.

At Kosciuszko school, a new extra-curricular group called Playpals has been created to improve the quality of games on the playground.
For this group, responsible students exhibiting certain leadership skills were selected by teachers to participate in the program. During the month of September, the Playpal advisors and Mr. Katte will train the students and work to develop their skills so that they can lead games, model good sportsmanship, and demonstrate sound problem-solving skills on the playground.
Hopefully, the Playpals will be ready, trained, and out on the playground in early October.
Earthwatch Trip - Update from Cudahy Middle School Teacher
On September 21, Kurt Wojciechowski, a teacher from the Cudahy Middle School, will be leaving for a two week trip to the Canadian Arctic to study the environmental changes and effects of global warming taking place in the Canadian Arctic.
Here is his first message and a link to his blog.
Homecoming Week at Cudahy High School
Homecoming week for the Cudahy High School runs from September 29 through October 3. For this week, Student Council has established themes for each day!
Five Days of No Tardies ...
At Kosciuszko school, the first day of school came and went with no tardy students!
This is a wonderful accomplishment, since a lot of the staff do not recall a day with no tardies. Mr. Katte, the school principal, congratulated the students and told them if they have five days with no tardies this school year, he will shave his head! We will keep you informed!
New Student Mentor Program
At Lincoln School, a new mentoring program has been implemented to welcome and help students adjust to their new school. All new students in this program will take part in team building activities with classroom mentors and the mentor will serve as both lunchroom and recess buddies for the new student.
The program gives new students a way to develop special bonds with their mentors/buddies and will hopefully make their first year at Lincoln a great experience!
Study Island and Education City
At Lincoln School, students in grades three through sixth were introduced to Study Island last school year. This wonderful online program helped to advance student skills in reading and math and will continue this year. For Study Island, students have a username and password and can use this site from anywhere they have Internet access.
New this year is Education City. Education City is a similar program for students in Kindergarten through 5th grade. This program contains lessons in reading, math, and science. Parents can find out more about Education City as the year progresses.
Bulldog Boosters
At the Cudahy Middle School, the Bulldog Boosters allow middle school parents to sit down with school administration to talk about middle school issues. These meetings educate parents on topics that affect adolescent youth while their children go through middle school.
At the first meeting, parents received information about the SOS (Signs of Suicide) program. The SOS program is a topic that health classes plan to highlight this semester. Next month, we discuss Nature's Classroom!
Reading Buddies
At the Cudahy Elementary Schools, the kindergarten students just met their reading buddies.
Reading buddies is a program throughout the school district that benefits and excites both age groups! The younger children, either 4-year old kindergarten or 5-year old kindergarten, love the one-on-one attention they receive from their buddy. They are also excited to become friends with a "big kid" and friendships form very quickly.
Cudahy's 2007-2008 Teachers of the Year
Special congratulations go out to -
- Cudahy High School 2007-2008 Teacher of the Year - Josh Beck

The survey did not show widespread efforts to censor school library books. It did report that at least eight schools have received requests to remove books in the last five years. None reported removing books, although in some cases the books were placed on restricted access, requiring students' parental approval to check them out. The report also showed that some school libraries were reluctant to provide records, which should be considered public (July 14, 1A).
The Star in July also provided in-depth articles about utility rates, dental clinic practices, the relationship of lead and crime and the quality of special education in Alabama schools.
Perhaps the strangest investigative stories covered the practices of dental clinics owned by national corporations. There were two stories by Eddie Burkhalter, July 25 and July 28. Together they took up 120 inches of newspaper space. They were actually the same story, the first one rewritten with some additional information as the second story. The articles cited critical reports on such clinics, primarily one recently issued by the Finance Committee of the U.S. Senate. The subject is an important one, but did it justify two very long stories, which overlapped by about 60 percent?
The major charge against such clinics as Small Smiles and Aspen Dental is that they are owned by national corporations, which violate state laws, including Alabama's, requiring that dentists must own dental clinics. The allegations are that such clinics exploit poor children and adults by providing treatments that may be more profitable than necessary. The July 28 story opened with a horrendous incident of apparent over-treatment by the Small Smiles clinic in Montgomery, the placement of five stainless steel caps on the teeth of a three-year-old child. The story suggested that the treatment was aimed at higher Medicaid payments. Despite the emotional impact of the incident, it is difficult for the layman to evaluate. It would have helped if The Star had interviewed a dentist about the nature of the treatment.
The Star article suggested that the Alabama Board of Dental Examiners has been lax in its regulatory duties in not looking into the practices of the Alabama clinics named. Although the Senate report was just out or when the Board director was interviewed, there had been earlier lawsuits and federal investigations of the clinic corporations.
Lost in the wind
"Winds of change" reported on a wind turbine project planned for Cherokee County. Eight turbines would be built to produce energy that would be sold to TVA, which handles electric power generation for North Alabama. The article, by Laura Gaddy, was informative but left questions. Some answers were available on the web page of the project developer, Pioneer Green.
The story referred to a feasibility study by JSU cited by a company spokesman. Why didn't The Star review the study directly? How did JSU happen to do such a study? How much will the project cost? According to its web page, Pioneer Green has not yet created any turbine projects but is working on three, the two in Alabama and one in Maryland. What is the expected impact on TVA power rates, if the Cherokee County project is carried out? (July 18, 1A)
More June Starbrites:
• "Freshly Southern," A useful 5-page guide on where to buy and where to eat wholesome local food; four stories by Leah Cayson, good color photos by Courtney Davies (July 21, E section).
• "On a mission," about a former JSU football player and his mission to Portugal to teach American style football and to spread the gospel, by Al Muskewitz (July 28, 1B).
And some blips:
• The Sunny King Classic golf tournament is one of the most popular sports events of the year, attracting around 400 participants. The tournament ended Sunday, July 14. With no Monday publication I expected the results to be carried on The Star's website Monday. They were not. Nor were they published in the Tuesday paper. They were published Thursday, four days after the event (July 18, 5B).
• On Wednesday, July 24, the Atlanta Braves won a ball game, but their lead pitcher, Tim Hudson, suffered a season-ending broken ankle. There was nothing in the Thursday paper, although the game ended well before The Star's deadline. It was finally carried Friday (July 26, 1B).
Paul Rilling is a retired former editor at The Star.

The Anniston Star's Calhoun County Class 1A-2A girls basketball coach of the year spent three years building up to Faith's first winning team in 10 years of the sport, and it all started with a fundraiser on a golf course.
It helped Shiflett build a team that went from 0-21 to 6-16 to 15-8 in his three years as the team's coach.
"When I took that program, there were seven girls, and I'm talking about grades seven through 12, the entire program," Shiflett said. "What I did was, I knew that we needed to get numbers up."
So Shiflett organized a golf tournament, and his players worked it. Including hole sponsors, the tournament raised about $5,000.
Shiflett used the money to make Lady Lions'girls basketball sweatshirts, T-shirts, warmups and hats.
"You couldn't get enough of it," Shiflett said. "We were giving them to parents and students. Our girls had them and were wearing them, matching every day."
After about five weeks of interested parties wearing the clothes around the school, Shiflett had an interest meeting. Of the 26 players who showed up, 21 stayed with the program — enough to have junior high and varsity teams.
After that first, winless season, Shiflett used the same strategy and turned out 20 players, despite losing two to graduation.
An enrollment decline in lower grades squelched the junior high team this season, but seeds were planted for this season.
"Those girls that were on that varsity team this year, they bought in when I started," he said. "I told them we could win.
"They just had to do what I asked them to do, but all of the tools were there for us to win. We just had to work hard."
And work efficiently. Shiflett limited practices to an hour to 90 minutes, provided his players were all business for that time. Less became more, and more became Shiflett's third team. Led by freshman point guard Madison Stephens and three seniors, including All-Calhoun County pick Kylee Shiflett (Scott's daughter), the Lions beat Ohatchee and Donoho for the first time in program history.
The 2012-13 season was Shiflett's last at Faith, and he said it's not because his daughter is graduating. He has private business interests and a "good opportunity in front of me," he said, but he's proud of what's behind him.
"I think that was a pretty good run," he said. "When you leave something better than you got it, then you feel like you accomplished what you set out to do."

As I continue to promote my book, I have reached out to numerous periodicals in hopes of getting a book review. In some cases, I have written articles in exchange for a promotional blurb. In the case of the Underwater Journal, an online scuba diving publication, my work was profiled in the marine life section of the magazine's latest issue.
They used nineteen of my photos over ten pages. I was very pleased with the outcome. Here is another page:
If you would like to see the entire article, you can visit the Underwater Journal and subscribe for free issues or you can download it from my site here. My article starts on page 12 and runs through page 22.
I thought that this would also be a good time to mention some new pages on my website. I created a page called Reviews. It lists reviews of my book from my blog, Amazon, and online publications. I have also a page called Presentations. It lists where I will be giving presentations and doing book signings. It also shows which venues allow the public.

Gmail is a free (gratis), advertising-supported email service provided by Google.[5] Users may access Gmail as secure webmail,[6] as well as via POP3 or IMAP4 protocols.[7][8] Gmail initially started as an invitation-only beta release on April 1, 2004[9] and it became available to the general public on February 7, 2007, though still in beta status at that time.[10] The service was upgraded from beta status on July 7, 2009, along with the rest of the Google Apps suite.[11][12]
With an initial storage capacity offer of 1 GB per user, Gmail significantly increased the webmail standard for free storage from the 2 to 4 MB its competitors such as Hotmail offered at that time.[13] Individual Gmail messages, including attachments, may be up to 25 MB.[14] Gmail has a search-oriented interface and a "conversation view" similar to an Internet forum. Gmail is noted by web developers for its pioneering use of Ajax.[15] Gmail runs on Google GFE/2.0 on Linux.[16][17][18] As of June 2012[update], it is the most widely used web-based email provider with over 425 million active users worldwide.[2][19]

Gmail was originally launched with 1 GB of storage space.
On April 1, 2005, the first anniversary of Gmail, the limit was doubled to 2 GB. Georges Harik, the product management director for Gmail, stated that Google would "keep giving people more space forever."[20]
On April 24, 2012, Google announced the increase of free storage in Gmail from 7.5 GB to 10 GB ("and counting") as part of the launch of Google Drive.[21]
On May 13, 2013 Google announced the overall merge of storage across Gmail, Google Drive, and Google+ Photos allowing users 15 GB of free storage between the three services.[22][23]
Users can buy additional storage, shared between Gmail, Google Drive and Google+ Photos, through a monthly subscription plan. Storage of up to 15 GB is free, and paid plans are available for up to 30 TB.
Gmail Labs[edit]
The Gmail Labs feature, introduced on June 5, 2008,[24] allows users to test new or experimental features of Gmail, such as bookmarking of important email messages or custom keyboard shortcuts. Users can enable or disable Labs features selectively and provide feedback about each of them. This allows Gmail engineers to obtain user input about new features to improve them and also to assess their popularity and whether they merit developing into regular Gmail features. All Labs features are experimental and are subject to termination at any time.[25]
Tabbed inbox[edit]
In mid-2013, Google updated the Gmail inbox with tabs which allow the application to categorize the user's emails. The five tabs are: Primary, Social, Promotions, Updates, and Forums. These tabs also appear in Gmail's mobile version. In addition to customization options, the entire update can be disabled, allowing users to return to the traditional inbox structure.[26][27]
Spam filter[edit]
Gmail's spam filtering features a community-driven system: when any user marks an email as spam, this provides information to help the system identify similar future messages for all Gmail users.[28][29] Users may tune the system to allow mail marked as spam to be handled in particular ways.[28]
Gmail Mobile[edit]
Gmail Mobile is a version of Google's Gmail email service. It was released on December 16, 2005, and is available in more than 40 languages.[30] It is a free service, developed to provide access to Gmail from mobile devices such as cell phones, or smartphones. Gmail Mobile offers many of the features as Gmail delivered effectively to smaller, mobile screens.[31]
On September 22, 2009 Google added push support to its Gmail service using Google Sync for iPhone and iPod Touch platforms.[32][33]
Social Network Integration[edit]
On February 9, 2010, Google commenced their new service, Google Buzz, which integrated with Gmail allowing users to share links and media, as well as status updates.[34] Buzz was launched with an automatic opt-in, causing an uproar in the Gmail community which led Google to quickly undo its initial moves.[35] Buzz was discontinued in December 2011 in favor of Google+.
Google+, which was launched on June 28, 2011 as Google's latest social networking application, integrates further into Gmail than Google Buzz: Google+ profile icons appear in the headers of emails received in Gmail and Google+ circles appear in the Contacts section. As of August 2012, Google+ Hangouts allows multi-user videoconferencing for users, replacing Gmail's video chat function.[citation needed]
As of January 2014, Gmail allows users to send emails to people who have Google+ accounts, even if they don't have each other's email addresses.[36]
Google Drive integration[edit]
Gmail integrates with Google Drive to allow users to view files received as attachments in supported formats using the Google Drive viewer. Also, attachments are previewed within the message itself, and clicking on the preview opens up a full-screen view of the file. Users can also save the attachments directly to Google Drive.[37]
Google Voice in Gmail chat[edit]
In August 2010, Google released a plugin that provides integrated telephone service within Gmail's Google Chat interface. This service initially lacked an official name, with Google referring to it as "Google Voice in Gmail chat" and also "Call Phones in Gmail",[38][39][40] but is now called Google Video and Voice Chat. The service allows people to make free calls from their Gmail account to U.S. and Canada, at least through the end of 2012.[41] Gmail account users can also call other countries on a fee basis. The service logged over 1 million calls in 24 hours on 26 August 2010.[42]
Google Voice multi-way videoconferencing (with support for document sharing) is now integrated with Google+ Hangouts.[43]
Gmail Search[edit]
Gmail incorporates a search bar for searching emails. The search bar can also search contacts, files stored in Google Drive, events from Google Calendar, and Google Sites.[44] It can also make web searches via Google Search. On May 21, 2012, Gmail improved the search functionality to include auto-complete predictions from the user's emails.[45] As with a web search, Gmail's search functionality does not support searching for word fragments (also known as 'substring search'), although it does perform partial-string stemming (e.g. searching for 'month' will turn up an email that includes the term 'months').[46]
Language input[edit]
As of October 2013, Gmail supports handwriting input for 75 languages after Google introduced the Transliteration, Input Method Editor (IME), and Virtual Keyboard input tools to Gmail's settings. The update allows Gmail users to switch between over 100 virtual keyboards and transliterations that support languages such as Hebrew, Thai, and Arabic.[47][48][49]
Money transfer and payment options[edit]
At the Google I/O 2013 conference, held on May 15, 2013, Google announced a feature that allows Gmail users to send money as email attachments via Google Wallet.[50] Google then explained in a blog post:
Google Wallet is now integrated with Gmail, so you can quickly and securely send money to friends and family directly within Gmail — even if they don't have a Gmail address. It's free to send money if your bank account is linked to Google Wallet or using your Google Wallet balance, and low fees apply to send money using your linked credit or debit card.[51]
Google planned to roll out the feature "over the coming months" following the announcement.[51]
Prior to the launch of the email attachment feature, the corporation's plan to introduce a physical Google Wallet card was publicized in 2012,[52] but the project was abandoned due to logistical problems and following the departure of the head of the Wallet team in early May 2013.[53][54] Following the Google I/O announcement, Google then reintroduced the card product in the US on November 21, 2013 as a debit card for Wallet accounts (the initial concept was a unifying card that could represent all of the user's credit cards)—the Digital Trends website described it as "essentially a standard debit card that you can use to pay with things using your Google balance." As of December 2013, the card was free to obtain and the shipping period was around 14 days.[53]
At one time Gmail used an unencrypted connection to retrieve user data, encrypting only the connection used for the login page. However, by replacing the URL http://mail.google.com/mail/ with https://mail.google.com/mail/, users were able to force Gmail to use a secure connection, reducing the risk of third-party eavesdropping on user information, such as emails and contacts, which are transmitted in plaintext as JavaScript data in the page source code. Starting in July 2008, it was possible to configure Gmail for HTTPS access only through the Settings - this prevented any insecure access via HTTP. POP3 and IMAP access uses Transport Layer Security, or TLS. At present Gmail now defaults to a secure HTTPS connection.
Although email clients such as Mozilla Thunderbird use TLS when sending email, it is not used when the email is sent from the Gmail servers to the destination domain's mail exchangers, unless supported, so at some stage the user's email message may still be transmitted in unencrypted plain text.
On March 20, 2014, Google announced the implementation of an enhancement of the overall security of Gmail in response to the Edward Snowden privacy revelations in 2013. An encrypted HTTPS connection will be used for the sending and receipt of all Gmail emails, and "every single email message you send or receive—100% of them—is encrypted while moving internally" through the corporation's systems.[55][56]
Around 2007, Gmail had severe security issues which allowed a full account compromise via Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities affecting the google.com homepage or information disclosure through a file which was stored on Google's server and included all the Email contacts of the currently logged in user. The vulnerability was quickly patched after the initial disclosure on the Internet.[57][58]
Gmail offers spam filtering: the system automatically deletes messages marked as spam after 30 days. Users can disable the spam-filtering system by creating a rule to make all messages skip the spam filter. POP3 users can only check the Spam folder manually via the web interface, as only emails sent to the Inbox can be retrieved via POP3. This is a technical limitation of POP3. Currently about 75% of email sent to Gmail accounts is filtered as spam.[59]
IP addresses of webmail Gmail users are disguised in order to protect security.[60]
Gmail automatically scans all incoming and outgoing e-mails for viruses in e-mail attachments. If a virus is found on an attachment the reader is trying to open, Gmail will try to remove the virus and open the cleaned attachment. Gmail also scans all outgoing attachments and will prevent the message from being sent if a virus is found. Gmail also does not allow users to send or receive executable files or archives containing executable files.[61]
Gmail became one of the first major e-mail providers to sign outgoing mails with Yahoo!'s DomainKeys signatures.[citation needed]
On June 5, 2012, a new security feature was introduced to protect users from state-sponsored attacks. Whenever Google analysis indicate that a government has attempted to compromise an account, Gmail will display a notice that reads "Warning: We believe state-sponsored attackers may be trying to compromise your account or computer."[62][63]
The Gmail user interface differs from other Webmail systems with its focus on search and its "conversation view" of email, grouping several replies onto a single page. Gmail's user-experience designer, Kevin Fox, intended users to feel as if they were always on one page and just changing things on that page, rather than having to navigate to other places.[64] In 2008, Fox left Gmail for a position at Yahoo.[65]
The idea for Gmail was pitched by Rajen Sheth during an interview with Google,[66] and went on to be developed by Paul Buchheit several years before it was announced to the public. The project was known by the code name Caribou.[67] Initially the email client was available for use only by Google employees internally. Gmail was announced to the public by Google on April 1, 2004 as a limited beta release[68] and was made publicly available on February 7, 2007.[10] Gmail exited from the beta status on July 7, 2009.[12]
As of June 22, 2005[update], Gmail's canonical URI changed from http://gmail.google.com/gmail/ to http://mail.google.com/mail/.[69] starting in December 2012, those who typed in the former URI were redirected to the latter. Gmail added IMAP support on October 24, 2007.[7]
Code changes[edit]
Gmail's interface was rewritten in the middle of 2007 and was released to users starting on October 29, 2007. The new version had a redesigned contacts section, quick contacts box and chat popups, which were added to names in the message list as well as the contact list. The contacts application is integrated into other Google services, such as Google Docs. Users granted access to the new version were given a link at the top-right corner which read "Newer Version". As of December 2007, most new registrations in English (US) along with most pre-existing accounts are given the new interface by default when supported.[3][70][71][72]
These coding changes mean that only users of Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 2, Google Chrome and Safari 3.0 (or more recent versions) are officially supported by Gmail and can fully use the new code. Opera 9.5 and more recent versions are not officially tested but are expected to "work with all of Gmail's features". Internet Explorer 5.5+, Netscape 7.1+, Mozilla 1.4+, Firefox 0.8, Safari 1.3 and some other browsers will give limited functionality. Other browsers may be redirected to the basic-HTML-only version of Gmail.[3][73][74][75][76]
During the week of January 18, 2008, Google released an update that changed the way Gmail loads JavaScript. This caused the failure of some third-party extensions.[77]
On December 12, 2008, Gmail added support for faster PDF viewing within the browser.[78]
When Internet Explorer 10 had been available for several months, Google removed support for Google Apps for Internet Explorer 8 and older versions.[79]
Gmail was one of the first Google projects to begin using Closure Library, part of Closure Tools, which were later open sourced. Much of the core library was developed concurrently with the 2008 update.[80]
Gmail was ranked second in PC World's "100 Best Products of 2005", behind Mozilla Firefox. Gmail also won 'Honorable Mention' in the Bottom Line Design Awards 2005.[81][82] In September 2006, Forbes magazine declared Gmail as the best webmail.[83] In November 2006, Gmail received PC World's 4 star rating.[84]
After Gmail's initial development and launch, many existing web mail services quickly increased their storage capacity.[85]
For example, Hotmail increased space for some users from 2 MB to 25 MB, with 250 MB after 30 days, and 2 GB for Hotmail Plus accounts. Yahoo! Mail went from 4 MB to 100 MB and 2 GB for Yahoo! Mail Plus accounts. Yahoo! Mail storage then increased to 250 MB and in late April 2005 to 1 GB. Yahoo! Mail announced that it would be providing "unlimited" storage to all its users in March 2007 and began providing it in May 2007.[86]
These were all seen as moves to stop existing users from switching to Gmail and to capitalize on the newly rekindled public interest in web mail services. The desire to catch up was especially noted in the case of MSN's Hotmail, which upgraded its email storage from 250 MB to the new Windows Live Hotmail which includes 5 GB of storage that expands if necessary. In November 2006, MSN Hotmail upgraded all free accounts to 1 GB of storage.[87]
In June 2005, AOL started providing all AIM screen names with their own email accounts with 2 GB of storage.[88]
As well as increasing storage limits following the launch of Gmail, Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail also enhanced their email interfaces. During 2005, Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail matched Gmail's attachment size of 10 MB. Following the footsteps of Gmail, Yahoo! launched the Yahoo! Mail Beta service and Microsoft launched Windows Live Hotmail, both incorporating Ajax interfaces. Google increased the maximum attachment size to 20 MB in May 2007[89] and to 25 MB in June 2009.[90]
Automated scanning of email content[edit]
Google automatically scans emails to add context-sensitive advertisements to them and to filter spam. Privacy advocates raised concerns that the plan involved scanning their personal, private emails and that this was a security problem. Allowing email content to be read, even by a computer, raises the risk that the expectation of privacy in email will be reduced. Furthermore, email that non-subscribers choose to send to Gmail accounts is scanned by Gmail as well, even though those senders never agreed to Gmail's terms of service or privacy policy. Google can change its privacy policy unilaterally and Google is technically able to cross-reference cookies across its information-rich product line to make dossiers on individuals. However, most email systems make use of server-side content scanning in order to check for spam,[91][92][93] and of course any email system must access email content merely to display it to the user.
Google defends its position by citing their use of email-scanning to the user's benefit. Google states that Gmail refrains from displaying ads next to potentially sensitive messages such as those that mention tragedy, catastrophe, or death.[94]
In March 2011 a former Gmail user in Texas sued Google, claiming that its Gmail service violates users' privacy by scanning e-mail messages to serve relevant ads.[95]
In July 2012, some California residents filed two class action lawsuits against Google and Yahoo! claiming that they illegally intercept emails sent by individual non-Gmail or non-Yahoo! subscribers to Gmail and Yahoo! subscribers without their knowledge, consent or permission.[96] A motion filed by Google's attorneys in the case concedes that Gmail users have "no legitimate expectation of privacy".[97]
A court filing uncovered by advocacy group Consumer Watchdog in August 2013 revealed that Google stated in a court filing that no "reasonable expectation" exists among Gmail users in regard to the assured confidentiality of their emails.[98] In response to a lawsuit filed in May 2013, Google explained:
"... all users of email must necessarily expect that their emails will be subject to automated processing ... Just as a sender of a letter to a business colleague cannot be surprised that the recipient's assistant opens the letter, people who use web-based email today cannot be surprised if their communications are processed by the recipient's ECS [electronic communications service] provider in the course of delivery.[98]
A Google spokesperson stated to the media on August 15, 2013 that the corporation takes the privacy and security concerns of Gmail users "very seriously."[98]
Google updated its terms of service for Gmail in April 2014 to create full transparency for its users in regard to the scanning of email content. The relevant revision states: "Our automated systems analyse your content (including emails) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customised search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection. This analysis occurs as the content is sent, received, and when it is stored." A Google spokesperson explained that the corporation wishes for its policies "to be simple and easy for users to understand." In response to the update, Jim Killock, executive director of the Open Rights Group, stated: "The really dangerous things that Google is doing are things like the information held in Analytics, cookies in advertising and the profiling that it is able to do on individual accounts".[99] In 2004, privacy advocates also regard the lack of disclosed data retention and correlation policies as problematic. Google has the ability to combine information contained in a person's email messages with information from Internet searches. Google has not confirmed how long such information is kept or how it can be used. One of the concerns is that it could be of interest to law enforcement agencies. More than 30 privacy and civil liberties organizations have urged Google to suspend Gmail service until these issues are resolved.[100]
Other privacy issues[edit]
Gmail's privacy policy used to contain the clause: "residual copies of deleted messages and accounts may take up to 60 days to be deleted from our active servers and may remain in our offline backup systems". However, this statement does not appear in Gmail's current privacy policy. Less specifically, Google has stated that they will "make reasonable efforts to remove deleted information from our systems as quickly as is practical."[101][102]
Gmail accounts of human rights activists in China were hacked in sophisticated attacks — thought to use phishing and exploit a vulnerability in Internet Explorer[103][104][105] — in late 2009. Any (web mail or other) mail system which stores and retains user's email contents is an attractive target for such attacks, but Gmail is popular with security-conscious users because of its early HTTPS secure (encrypted) connection support, and its more-recent HTTPS-only default setting.[6][106]
The launch of Google Buzz as an opt-out social networking service immediately drew criticism for violating user privacy because it automatically allowed Gmail users' contacts to view their other contacts. Buzz was discontinued in December 2011.[107][108]
In December 2013, Gmail made changes in how images are displayed, to improve protection against insecure content and (by default) remove the necessity for recipients to click the "display images" confirmation.[109] Gmail now serves all images through Google's own secure proxy servers. It also removed the ability for email marketers to track IP, user agent, if it was a mobile open or which mobile device was used.[110] At the same time, the default behavior was changed to show images without user confirmation, thereby enabling senders to track the time when an email is first opened by the recipient, by inserting tracking pixels.[111] While media such as Wired criticized the change as weakening user privacy, email marketing service provider MailChimp welcomed the improved capability to track previously invisible email subscribers.[111]
A new Gmail feature was launched in January 2014, whereby users can email people with Google+ accounts even though they do not know the email address of the recipient. Marc Rotenberg, President of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, called the feature "troubling". The new feature is enabled by default but can be disabled.[112]
Technical limitations[edit]
Gmail does not allow users to send or receive executable files or archives containing executable files if it recognizes the file extension as one used for executable files or archives.[113][61]
By design, Gmail does not deliver all of a user's emails. When downloading mail through POP or IMAP access, Gmail fails to deliver messages that users have sent to themselves if the client has a copy of it already.[114] It also does not deliver to a user's inbox (via any access interface) those messages that users have sent to mailing lists and which they might expect to receive back via the mailing list.[115]
Gmail normally sorts email only by conversations (threads), which can be a problem for large conversations. For example, if a user sends a query to a large group of people, all of the responses are stored in a single conversation that is impossible to break apart. There is no way to search for responses from one user without getting the entire conversation. While deletion of individual emails is possible, most operations, such as archiving and labeling, can be performed only on whole conversations. Conversations cannot be split up or combined. As a result of complaints from some users, Google made conversation view optional starting September 29, 2010, but there is currently no method to split individual conversations.
Google may terminate a Gmail account after nine months of inactivity.[116] Other webmail services have different, often shorter, times for marking an account as inactive. Yahoo! Mail deactivates dormant accounts after four months.[117][118]
Gmail has been unavailable on several occasions. On February 24, 2009, the Gmail service was offline for 2 hours and 30 minutes, preventing millions of users from accessing their accounts. People who rely entirely on Gmail for business purposes complained about these outages.[119][120] Another outage occurred on September 1, 2009. Later that day, a Google vice president, Ben Treynor, explained that the problem, which ultimately resulted in about 100 minutes of outage, was caused by overloaded routers, triggered by a routine configuration change which added more router load than expected. Treynor wrote, "Gmail remains more than 99.9% available to all users, and we're committed to keeping events like today's notable for their rarity."[121][122]
In 2009, Google continued to experience outages across its network, leaving users without access to their email, calendars, and virtual files.[123]
Key outage dates include:

Twenty-four hour lockdowns[edit]
If an algorithm detects what Google calls "abnormal usage that may indicate that your account has been compromised", the account can be automatically locked down for between one minute and 24 hours, depending on the type of activity detected. Listed reasons for a lock-down include:[138]
- "Receiving, deleting, or downloading large amounts of mail via POP or IMAP in a short period of time. If you're getting the error message, 'Lockdown in Sector 4,' you should be able to access Gmail again after waiting 24 hours."[138]
- "Sending a large number of undeliverable messages (messages that bounce back)."[138]
- "Using file-sharing or file-storage software, browser extensions, or third party software that automatically logs into your account."[138]
- "Leaving multiple instances of Gmail open."[138]
- "Browser-related issues. Please note that if you find your browser continually reloading while attempting to access your Inbox, it's probably a browser issue, and it may be necessary to clear your browser's cache and cookies."[138]
On behalf of[edit]
Prior to July 2009, any email sent through the Gmail interface included the Gmail.com address as the "sender", even if it was sent with a custom email address as "from". For example, an email sent with an external "from" address using Gmail could be displayed to a receiving email client user as From firstname.lastname@example.com on behalf of email@example.com (the display used by versions of Microsoft Outlook). By exposing the Gmail address, Google claimed that this would "help prevent mail from being marked as spam".[139] A number of Gmail users complained that this implementation was both a privacy concern and a professionalism problem.[140]
On July 30, 2009, Gmail announced an update to resolve this issue.[141] The updated custom 'From:' feature allows users to send messages from Gmail using a custom SMTP server, instead of Gmail's.[142] However, the issue is still present for users whose custom email address is a second Gmail account, rather than an account on a separate domain.[143]

My second book, The Competent Cook: Essential Tools, Techniques, and Recipes for the Modern At-Home Cook, officially launches November 18th. It has been a work in progress over many years, beginning with the eponymous food column I had on cdkitchen.com, which launched in the spring of 2005. When I was approached to write the column and come up with a title, I thought "The Confident Cook" was alliterative and catchy. Thank goodness my father convinced me otherwise, pointing out that confidence without competence is worthless. Very true indeed. So, "The Competent Cook" became my weekly online outlet to help readers become better cooks and learn the standards I valued.
By late summer of 2006, I was seven months pregnant and gearing up to wind down. I worked until five days before my son was born (my last gig was for Tyler Florence on "The View." Needless to say, I think he was pretty shocked to see me 40 weeks pregnant and waddling around the set with strip steaks and brandied mushrooms!) I was right back to work for Michel Nischan on a TV shoot three weeks later. I just couldn't keep away from the work I love. In early 2007, when my friend and agent, Molly, encouraged me to consider what kind of cookbook I would want to write (she knew me too well to ask if I wanted to write one!), the theme of the The Competent Cook was the clear winner.
I have been privileged to be a culinary instructor in addition to all the other toques I wear (chef/caterer, food columnist, recipe tester, and food stylist). It has been a sincere pleasure to pass along to students the knowledge and standards that I have learned from others and from my own trials and triumphs in the kitchen. Everything from the equipment I favor to the way I store food impacts my daily cooking life. My favorite evergreen recipes and the techniques that go with them are now finally compiled in a book that has been a work in progress not just since 2005, but my whole life. The book was meant to be born.
Getting a book published can take a long time, and at one point my patience waned. In March of 2008 I was ready to give up and just move on to other things. I was given the opportunity to write Notes on Cooking with Russell Reich, and I jumped at it. As fate would have it, the very same week I had an offer for The Competent Cook to be published. Unwilling to choose between the two projects, I said, "Sure! I can write two books in six months!" And that's exactly what I did. Notes on Cooking was just released in June, and now a few months later The Competent Cook hits the stands.
Since receiving my advance copy a few weeks ago, it has been gratifying to pick up The Competent Cook and find recipes like my basic pie crust and chicken satay with coconut lemongrass sauce without having to pull the files off the computer or my hand-written notes from a filing box. At last, my favorite go-to recipes are in one convenient collection! I hope you enjoy the book and find it to be the perfect compliment to Notes on Cooking.
