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.
There's just enough new here to make this interchangeable-lens model worth a look.
The Panasonic Lumix CM1 is an Android device packed with the best camera technology you'll find on a phone, including a huge 1-inch sensor and full manual controls.
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.
For your perusal, JPEG samples at various ISO sensitivities.
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 swapping of the flash for the EVF is the most substantive physical change between the GM5 and its predecessor.
The small but notable change of swapping a built-in flash for an EVF is welcome, but the price...
The 16x zoom bridge camera features a 1-inch sensor, tilting 3-inch LCD, a hot shoe, mic input, and more making it equal parts video and still photo camera.
Featuring a large 1-inch sensor and 16x zoom lens (the longest in its class), this compact might be all the camera you need.

One day, the Reaper will steal
Into your home, and make a deal:
Will you live forever in black, bad health?
Or part with your soul, and have eternal wealth?
The riches of heaven are pleasant, but few--
So you can understand when I chose to do
Exactly what the Grim Reaper had advised:
To become immortal, and die while alive.

You can see all the love,

Such would be Cadvan's joy,

Happy they would be for life,
if he would take her as a wife.
They're in love more than we ever knew,

Blindness is a lack of vision. It may also refer to a loss of vision that cannot be corrected with glasses or contact lenses.
People with vision that is worse than 20/200 with glasses or contact lenses are considered legally blind in most states in the United States.
Vision loss refers to the partial or complete loss of vision. This vision loss may happen suddenly or over a period of time.
Some types of vision loss never lead to complete blindness.
Loss of vision; No light perception (NLP); Low vision; Vision loss and blindness
Blindness has many causes. In the United States, the leading causes are:
The type of partial vision loss may differ, depending on the cause:
Other causes of vision loss include:
When you have low vision, you may have trouble driving, reading, or doing small tasks such as sewing or making crafts. You can make changes in your home and routines that help you stay safe and independent. Many services will provide you with the training and support you need to live independently.
Sudden vision loss is always an emergency, even if you have not completely lost all vision. You should never ignore loss of vision, thinking it will get better.
Contact an ophthalmologist or go to the emergency room immediately. Most serious forms of vision loss are painless, and the absence of pain in no way diminishes the urgent need to get medical care. Many forms of vision loss only give you a short amount of time to be successfully treated.
A complete and thorough eye examination will be performed. The treatment will depend on the cause of the vision loss.
For long-term vision loss, see a low-vision specialist, who can help you learn to care for yourself and live a full life.

POSTED: Monday, March 4, 2013 - 9:31pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, March 5, 2013 - 11:53am
(CNN) -- In what appears to be his most in depth public comments regarding 2016, Jeb Bush says he's not ruling out a run for president.
The comments come as the former two-term Florida governor releases a new book on the issue of illegal immigration. He heads to two events over the next two weeks considered early cattle calls for Republican White House hopefuls.
Asked Monday morning on NBC's "The Today Show" if he was going to run in 2016, Bush said "that's way off in the future. I have a voice. I want to share my beliefs about how the conservative moment and the Republican Party can regain its footing, because we've lost our way."
Pressed by host Matt Lauer on whether he would not rule out a run for president in 2016, Bush answered "I won't. But I won't declare it today either."
Bush is doing television interviews this week to promote his new book "Immigration Wars: Forging an American Solution." At the end of this week Bush heads to Coral Gables, Florida, to meet with GOP officials and top donors at the Republican National Committee's quarterly finance meetings. Bush will join other possible 2016 GOP contenders such as Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
Next week Bush speaks at the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference, a popular cattle call for Republicans considering bids for the White House. CPAC, which turns 40 this year, is the largest annual gathering of conservative leaders and activists, and it's boosted the presidential campaigns, or ambitions, of many Republican candidates. The annual CPAC GOP presidential nomination straw poll is considered a key gauge of conservative sentiment, and garners much media attention.
While most other Republicans considering 2016 runs are speaking at the conference, Christie was not invited. But Bush said it wasn't a big deal and said he's a big fan of the tough talking GOP governor of New Jersey.
"I love Christie. I think Gov. Christie is a part of the future of the Republican Party for sure, and whether he's going to CPAC or not is not really changing that."
Tuesday Bush speaks with CNN's Jake Tapper. That interview will run on CNN, including on "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer."
Bush, the younger brother of former President George W. Bush and son of former President George H.W. Bush, served two terms as governor of Florida, winning election in 1998 and re-election in 2002. He ruled out a run for the White House in 2012.

Web size. Ok, here is my problem. All my SB pages inc. cards are done in my Corel Draw X4 program. I figured out how to save for a JPG (are these suppose to be jpg's or something else?), but I can't figure out (hmmmm) how to get it in an image, for me to upload? Oh, I see below here in typing msg, that I can save as a png, I can try that, perhaps? Aren't pngs bigger files as in bytes then jpg's?
How would I adjust the size of file I would like to upload?
Thanks for the urls, but sorry I have to bug you with more questions. I did watch the video, understood that portion, but I need to save the page first and I'll all confused. I know I've done this before...that was years before, but it seems to have left my memory, so frustrating.
If you can understand what I'm asking (more power to you lol), please respond, thank you!

*. V \ The College News VOL. XX, No. 1 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1933 Copyright BRYN MAWK COLLEGE NEWS, 1933 PRICE 10 CENTS Miss Park Predicts Basic Social Change Stresses Need for Elasticity, Per- sonal Adjustment, and Tested Facts ANNOUNCES NEW PLANS At the opening chapel of the col- lege year, President Park spoke as follows: "I am glad to see you here today� students who are returning and stu- dents newly come, graduates and un- dergraduates, wardens, professors, deans; and to welcome you to Bryn Mawr at the beginning of its 48th year. Those of us who came early were ready to hear the ejaculations of the returning college and the trucks clattering up with the luggage. The swimming moonlight of last eve- ning, the summer green of the cam- pus, the red dogwoods and the thorn tree near the library�proof that this is after all October�they really de- mand an audience. Joe Graham said to me last week, "Certain, it's like u graveyard with them gone"�and he is really right. The year begins well, bright weath- er, a full college. To the eye of the layman at least the state of the world and of Amer- ica looks no less confused and dark than in June. Yet we are all aware of an indefinable and still inexplica- ble feeling of slowly coming confi- dence, like the faint lightening of the eastern sky on one of these last misty September mornings,�herald � who knows?�of later clearing. This feel- ing, if it can be called by so definite a name, is reflected in our college numbers. Individuals and families as the summer went on ventured to make plans for their daughters before which spring had found them hesi- tant. The college begins this morn- ing with Wyndham open again, with 491 students, graduates and under- graduates, as against 474 last year, and an entering class of 124, one of the largest in the history of the col- lege. The graduate school, always slow to register, because many of its number are teachers in the not yet (Continued on Pape Four) Hockey Veterans Limber Up College Bookshop Opens Under New Management The College Bookshop may not be under the omnipresent NRA, but it is engineering a "new deal" on its own hook. The part that should ap- peal to the students is that this par- ticular new deal is for the benefit of the undergraduate body and has noth- ing to do with a sliding wage scale or shoddy manufacturers' code. As far as possible, prices are being kept down to a competition-with-Liggett's basis and such profits as accrue will go to the Scholarship Fund. There are several innovations which should make the shop popular, in addition to its price-appeal a lend- ing library has been established with new, good, and popular books (such as the notable Autobiography of Alice B. Toklae), which may be tak- en out without deposit, and which supplement the rather static New Book Room books. Old books, which include novels and textbooks, may be bought at cost, and stock from last year, perfume, stockings and other articles, will also be sold at cost. There are some unprecented bargains in this wide collection. Although the shop is open from 9.45 to 12.00 in the morning and from 2.00 to 3.00 in the afternoon only, there are hall shops, selling a complete range of necessities, which are open at announced times. They are another extremely useful part of the "new deal," and their managers will probably be willing to help cope with any deficiency of supplies, even outside of hours. Indeed, the administration should be congratulated on having presented the college with a new convenience and a new way to economy�the Col- lege Book Shop. �Photo by Clark.

This year's squad, of which only five were on the 1932 Varsity, will try to forget former defeats and look for- ward to what we hope will be a more successful season. On the forward line are Faeth, Brown, Stevenson and Kent, who has been shifted from inner to center for- ward. Taggart, Carter, Simons, Boyd and Perry are out to give Brown and Stevenson a run for the wing posi- tions, while Cary, E. E. Smith, Har- rington and Raynor are training for the position as Faeth's running mate at inner. Ballard, a Varsity inner from North Shore Country Day School, is giving them keen competi- tion. Kent's position at center for- ward is at present challenged by only me other candidate, Bennett, who will probably take up that place on the second team. Although Daniels is the only vet- eran left in the backfield, that section .seems to*be shaping up .much more luickly than the forward line. P. Little and A. Van Vechten have both had experience as substitute fullbacks '>ut Bucher, a newcomer to the squad, has been showing exceUent progress in early practices.

Mrs. Underhill Talks on Mountaineering Recent Guideless Expeditions in Eastern Alps Required Unusual Skill DOLOMITES GIVE THRILL "The last two or three years I have done moetly guideless climbing," said Mrs. Miriam O'Brien Underhill last Friday evening, at the start of her amusingly illustrated lecture on "Mountain Climbing in the Eastern Alps." This sort of climbing, though necessarily limited, gives a thrilling feeling of independence. Last summer, Mrs. Underhill, her husband, and two friends, cruised around Europe in a roadster, piled high with boots and wet ropes. Mrs. Underhill did the photography: "You can always discover something to be photographed, when a tire has to be changed." Her pictures reveal the perils of layers of hairpin curves� eighty on one of the thirty-five passes they traversed�which her husband took in high with a "rhythmic swing." "He missed the biggest thrill of Al- pine driving: that of riding in the rumble seat when he was at the wheel," said one of his suffering pas- sengers. Cows were **the chief ob- stacle on the road. The only way to get rid of them was to drive them up the steep roadbanks with an ice- axe, and pass on, leaving them to wonder how to get down. When the car boiled, because of the installation of valves upside-down by a Swiss mechanic, it was filled with ice-water from the mountain brooks and roll- ed backward down the mountains, un- til the engine warmed up enough to start. The roadster was in most cases driven up to the base of the mountain. The passengers then dis- embarked, changed their shoes, and began their climb. Snow, encountered in climbing, dis- pleased Mrs. Underhill.

All Sophomores were notified that there will be no course in Hygiene given this semes- ter. Those who will be unable to take it in the second semester are urged to see the Dean as soon as pos- sible, because arrangements arc be- ing made whereby Biology students may be allowed to work up the Hy- giene course by themselves. A Homer course, which will be of interest to all Greek enthusiasts, is being offered. Dr. Dulles is giving an advanced course in Finance at her office in Philadelphia, which is open only to those who have had several years of Economics. The Biology Department has found it necessary to reduce the number of students enrolled in the First Year course, because of the inadequacy of the laboratory to provide for them all. Several years ago the Science Department expanded to its capac- ity, and it will be necessary to limit the " numbers taking laboratory courses until the proposed new Sci- ence Building has become an. actual fact. ^ The large number of students who enrolled for the Modern Novel course, (Continued on rase Six) Duncan Based Style on Coherent Philosophy Her Dancing is Not Natural, Interpretive, Greek, or Wholly Romantic TECHNIQUE IS AMERICAN (Especially contributed by Janet . Barber) It is astonishing that we are so rarely .conscious of our lessons as lessons in a way of creating:�wit- ness most of out melancholy infant musical efforts and, for the purpose of this article, witness the Duncan dancing at college. It is too seldom remembered that this dancing is bas- ed upon a definite technique created out of the coherent philosophy of a single woman (whom, after all, we might not have liked); that she had reasons for choosing the movements that she chose, and reason for choos- ing; that Miss Cooper has a definite and conscious relationship to this se- lection, and that we have or should have such a relationship also.

A few superior glances were cast in our di- rection which served to convince us that we were a case of mistaken iden- tity, that we were being labeled as the freshman from the Union of South Africa who couldn't quite get here on time. Appalled by the idea that in a moment we would have to answer questions about the veldt and how to trek, we started a loud conver- sation with our friend, the warden, about the advantages of Freshman Week. No one seemed electrified by this attempt, no one except one very sweet young thing who leaned across the table and asked us sympatheti- cally why we hadn't got to college on time. Somehow, after that, we couldn't go on, just mumbled some- thing about every week being Fresh- man Week to us and fled.

2009 Kitchen/Merit: Live, Dine, Sleep, Reno, Nev., by Hawkins & Associates, Reno, Nev.
Asa Gilmore
Changes in cabinet depth indicate a subtle shift from living space to kitchen.
The ktichen is tucked beneath an exposed steel staircase.
The homeowners' program demanded a minimalist space with an honest expression of its structure and materials.
The metal stair leads from the second-floor main living space to a reading loft. Custom cabinetry throughout the home stores kitchen and laundry supplies, as well as other secrets.
A Murphy bed adds master suite to the list of uses already in play for this open kitchen/dining/living space.
Beyond the sleek Murphy bed, etched glass pocket doors screen the combination bath/laundry/closet in this hardworking space.
Hawkins & Associates
The project's floor plans.
hawkins & associates, reno
Hawkins loaded as much storage as possible into custom cabinets that climb step-by-step with a hot-rolled steel stair until they level out at counter height. The smooth steel also works as a low-maintenance backsplash that blends nicely with cast-in-place concrete counters. Steamed beech millwork, which Hawkins used throughout the house for continuity, provides a warm counterpoint to the otherwise raw materials.
"The biggest challenge was talking my wife into having our bed in the kitchen," he chuckles. Much like our jury, however, she quickly fell head over heels for the Murphy bed, along with all of the clever cabinetry.

Hey Chris,
I currently play 51 55 and 59 degree wedges, and I'm looking to upgrade. I play my 59 out of the bunker primarily, and from 90 yards and in, play the 55 from 95-105, and my 51 from 110-120. Just wondering what degrees of bounce you would recommend for these clubs.
Hi Adam,
Without seeing you hit shots, if you are happy with the bounce of your current wedges I would duplicate them with your new wedges.
To play the same lofts you have now, would require playing Vokey SM5 at 1 degree strong or weak.
I usually recommend going 1 degree weak because it adds 1 degree more bounce and takes away offset (the opposite effect for 1 strong)
A safe bet is going with medium bounce, which can prevent digging but still playable from tight lies.
I hope this helps!
Hi Andrew,
The best way to find irons have better green stopping performance would be to go through a fitting.
Chances are if your iron trajectory is too low, there is not enough loft at impact (effective loft).
I would test the AP2 714 with PX 5.5 as a starting point and fine tune the flight from there.
Enjoy the fitting process!
Graham JHi Chris, I'm looking to buy some 714 Ap2 irons in the next couple of weeks before the golf season starts. I was wondering if there is any Titleist Authorized Fitting Facility near Kelowna British Columbia. The only golf fitting place I can find so far is Golftown, and I was wondering if they are Titleist Authorized Fitting Partners. And if you know anywhere else I could go to get fitted. Thanks, Graham
Thanks Chris. I will be setting up a full fitting at the National fitting centre very soon.
Hi guys,
I've been playing a 712U 18* with the same shaft that I have in my irons (KBS C-Taper X) since I received it late last year. Back then, they were not a lot of "lighter weight, lower flighting" shaft being offered. That's why I went with the C-Taper. Having played it quite a bit (I was fortunate enough to not be in Canada during the winter), I do notice that it's quite hard to play when the ball is not sitting perfectly. I'd love to have something lighter (around 100 grams) that would offer a similar flight and feel. My guess is that the lighter weight will help me generate a few extra mph but will mostly help in the forgiveness department.
I've looked at the new 2014 options and I was wondering which off the following would do the trick?
recoil prototype 95X
Steelfibers 110X (I don't think the 95X exist right?)
Dynamic Gold SLX100 (did not like the standard DGX100 so I'm not sure the SL would be my first choice)
Also, I know it's quite early but, any idea as to when the 714/715U will come out? ;)
Thanks for your help!!
Hi Math,
If you are looking for a "similar" profile to C-Taper X but lighter I would suggest the following:
-C-Taper Lite
-Steelfiber 110
The 712U is a very low spin product. I have yet to see anyone over spin it. I wouldn't be afraid to try a shaft that says "mid flight" as the biggest influence on launch and spin is the loft and CG of the head.
As for the release of 714/715U...We have no plans related to new a new release of 'U' product at this time.

Thanks for the insight Chris! Really appreciate it.
You may have read that I changed my grips this winter from GP Oversize grips to the Jumbo Max Grips due to my issues with tennis elbow in my left arm. (I play right handed).
My question is related to swing weight. Although I have found I am hitting the ball well, I was wondering if perhaps the larger grips will have thrown off the swing weight and if so is there something I can have done to fix that?
Hi Darius,
When changing to a larger/heavier grip it will decrease the swing weight by a few points.
To add swing weight you can do the following:
-A heavier Surefit weight (in your 913D2)
-Lead tape for Irons, wedges, and, hybrid.
Thanks Chris...
I had not even thought about the driver. I will check that out when I go for my fitting for my rescue replacement.
I think it will be good to have a chat about my irons when I come for my fitting. Who knows - maybe I don't have to do anything. I know the club heads feel a lot lighter but that may not be a bad thing.
If it turns out to be a good idea to add some tape, it will be good to chat before I put any on to make sure I put it in the right place.
Hopefully the elbow heals (am seeing a sports therapist now) and I can get back to a lighter weight oversize grip. My AP1's came with GP Jumbos which I understand weigh in around 50 grams. The JumboMax grips weigh in at just over double that. If my elbow heals, I can then go back to a lighter grip and restore the clubs to their original feel.

Alex Pietrangelo will be a restricted free agent after next season and there is talk that the Blues are already working on signing him to a new deal this offseason. That price tag just jumped....and significantly.Last night the Ottawa Senators rewarded their start 22 year old defenseman with a 7 year 45.5 million dollar deal.
To be fair he is a finalist for the Norris trophy and scored 27 more points then Alex, so one should assume he could demand more cash the Petro. However, any time the 'bar' is raised, all amounts below that adjust accordingly.
Any hope of getting Alex to sign a 4 year 16 million dollar deal probably just went out the window. I would assume Alex would probably prefer to playout this year and with an increase in his offensive numbers he could make a strong case for a similar contract.Something like 6 years around 36 mill (6 mill a year instead of 6.5 and a year less since he'd be a year older).
Here's hoping maybe they can reach a middle ground on a shorter team deal like 3 years for around 15 mill. Giving him a nice increase this year and giving both sides a couple more years to see where he really fits in the class of elite defenseman.

Maybe its just the shading, but for some reason, Discord seems a little threatening here, like he's going to ring her neck. Or maybe I haven't gotten the whole "Discord is a villain thing" out of my head.

That little gem was traded for the most valuable item. Previous episodes already showed that different gems have different rarity and value, like the baby blue sapphires in Sisterhooves social were said to be extremely rare, and the fire ruby seem like a one-of-a-kind.
J-Dude wrote: In fact, this episode is no doubt going to be picked-over to worldbuild on how Equestria's economy works and what the value of jewels is. I mean, it makes sense for the girls to pay Spike off with jewels, but some of them just happened to already have a jewel on them when he spontaneously offered to take care of their pets. It says something, y'know? I can only assume that jewels can be used in trade like you'd use a ten-dollar bill instead of ten one-dollar bills.
But naturally, jewels aren't equal in value, depending on the size and type.
The ruby makes sense, because technically I think rubies these days are more valuable than even diamonds, though we didn't see a diamond in this episode, I don't think.
But then we have Fluttershy's massive green gem. Emeralds aren't AS valued as diamonds, but they're more valued than sapphires, and we saw one of those in Spike's measuring cup from Pinkie or Applejack. I'd guess it was just a huge garnet, unless Fluttershy really IS just that determined to keep Angel well cared for (which isn't out of the question).
Still, that damn ruby rented out a massive hair dryer. What must that translate to, 50 bucks a day? An hour? More? Less? Either way, quite a bit for something like pet-sitting.
So, some insight, perhaps, into how much more common and less valuable gems are in Equestria as opposed to real life? I mean, they sound less common now than I'd speculated before, but then, they DO tend to be friggin' enormous compared to IRL gems of a fraction of their size, while still being affordable to layman... er, laymares...
Ich... I'm starting to think we're overthinking a lot of the elements in this show...

Mon-Kitsune wrote: There's one big problem with your guess about Fluttershy, by and large, garnets are RED or orangy. There ARE such things as green garnets (in fact garnets come in every color except blue) such as Dematoid and Tsavorite, but those tend to be pretty expensive (I actually own one in my "savings hoard" that cost me about $10, but I got that from someone who was liquidating and selling at only about 5% of market value) and are not found in a size like what Flutter had. Peridot is a possiblity, but again they don't usually show up that size. If you want something green that would be that size IRL, you'd probably be some sort of tourmaline.
Though I agree that that gem may be a bit excessive. It isn't just that that stone, if an emerald is enormous (stones that size havent really been seen since the coffers of the Mugal princes on India were all liquidated and the massive number of stones they had bought from the Spanish over the previos 3-4 centuries began to liquidate (The Mugals loved emeralds for religios resons (they were Muslim, and the Koran describes emeralds as being the same color as the grass in paradise)) it's that for a stone like that to be eye clear is basically unheard of (eye clear emeralds are almost uheard of anyway).
Also, sappires aren't neccecarily all that expensive. I've got 5-6 of them and I think the most I paid for one was about $50, and that was a 3-4 carat one of a very unusual color (actually all of the sapphires I bought are pretty ununsual colors, since I tend to go for non-blue ones, I have a purple, a green, two orangy (one of which is red enough it techically counts as a ruby) and the one I mentioned is cantaloupe). A lot of the "expense" in jewelry jewels is actually the markup for the setting; loose the gems are usually pretty affordable (unless very rare or very large).
Though we do have an explantion of how they all have stones. We know Rarity's "knack" is finding gems, and her element is generosity. I'm sure she gives the occasional stone out to her friends. That could for example explain where AJ got hers (remember her family is fairly poor, so gems have to be avaliable to even the lowest income bracket from time to time. Maybe she occasionally hands out leftovers from her work, which could explain why Flutters and Twilights stones were actually cut.

Hello everyone, I am George Scatchard, an old but still active potter living in Vermont. Recently I have become obsessed with the thermal expansion properties of high temperature pottery. It all started with mugs cracking from bad clay composition. I have built a Rube Goldburg contraption to measure the thermal expansion properties of various clay mixtures and now am making experimental pizza stones from a modified cordierite clay body. Because I fire hotter and in a reduction atmosphere I am able to do things that can't be done at lower temperatures in oxidation the way most cordierite stones are made. I have read a lot on line about the various claims of manufacturers and the preferences of many pizza chefs. I assume no one material would please everybody, but I am looking for guidance from you experts as to what I should shoot for. Some of the considerations are: denser than regular cordierite? still porous? thicker or thinner? glazed or unglazed?
I am hoping to come up with a really good product within the next few months, so I will appreciate any help I can get. I don't think I will really make money on this project because the materials and firing are expensive and I am limited to hand methods of production. That means I can't sell them in wholesale quantities.

Hi George, welcome to the forum. The work you're doing sounds fascinating.
As I'm sure you've found in your research, cordierite can vary pretty widely from manufacturer to manufacturer. From what I've learned, cordierite can be extruded or pressed. I'm not exactly certain which of the popular cordierite brands (old stone, pampered chef, williams sonoma, etc.) are extruded or pressed, but I do know, from studying ceramics in college, that clay molecules are flat and that when you press them, they sandwich together and become stronger- a lot stronger. This is one reason why slipware (clay molecules that dry facing every possible direction) is so much weaker than hand built or thrown pottery.
I have a working theory that extruded cordierite, due to moisture content of the extruded clay, is most likely less dense than pressed. If this is the case, then one could look at the weight/volume/density of commercial stones and determine which are extruded and which are pressed, but I haven't gotten that far with my testing.
The strength obtained by pressing is flexural (bend strength). Flexural strength (and thermal conductivity) are directly related to thermal shock resistance. I've seen videos of pressed high alumina cordierite stones going from red hot (more than 1000 deg. f.) into ice water without any issue. I highly doubt any extruded material could achieve this.
Lack of porosity/air pockets is critical to a good pizza stone. Air is an insulator/slows the transfer of heat/conductivity. When heat doesn't transfer quickly, you will have hot, expanded areas next to cooler unexpanded areas, resulting in structural failure. Air pockets also allow a stone to absorb water, not so much during baking, but more during cleaning and/or moisture from humid air. Water plus heat equals massively expanding steam. Lastly, and most obviously, air pockets decrease strength. Air is the kiss of death for pizza stones *cough* fibrament *cough*
Conductivity is also critical for good stones, especially for the home baker. It's essential, as discussed, for thermal shock resistance, but materials with greater thermal conductivity transfer energy at a faster rate, allowing lower temp home ovens to bake pizzas faster, resulting in pizzeria quality results. From what I've read, cordierite is silica and alumina, and, because alumina is more conductive, it's ideal to maximize the alumina content.
The other side of the heat transfer coin is thermal mass. Dense, highly conductive materials such as steel can make great pizza at thicknesses as low as 1/2". Cordierite, in order to bake pizzeria quality pizza in an average 550 deg. home oven should really be at least 1". Thickness gets tricky because, as you go thicker, the stone will weigh considerably more, which, in turn, can potentially challenge the structural integrity of the oven shelf.

Hello Scott, Thanks a lot for responding. I have been able to test one of the most popular pressed cordierite brands by sawing off a strip to test in my device, and I am consistently able to get lower thermal expansion. I hadn't given much thought to the forming process, but I have thrown and slip cast the stones I have made so far. With my cone 10 reduction firing, iron acts as a flux, and I have tested up to 4 % without any problem. I am hoping the iron will raise the specific gravity some. I am also experimenting with a lot of texture on the back side to double the heat absorption rate which should help. I will be doing specific gravity calculations soon to see where I stand there.

Super interesting reading. Since this is a topic that most people will be interested in, it might be helpful if it were moved or copied from the new member area to the pizza tools section. George, I suspect that if you develop a better mousetrap you will have lots of customers from this forum!

Thanks Tin, This is my first day so I am just learning my way around here. As my work develops I will keep posting results, and some day try to figure out a fair way to have some stones tested by members who have experience with several stones.

George, while I think that expansion testing is a good indicator, as you begin to finalize your formula, I think some quench testing is order. Extreme quenches are what separate the manly pizza stones from the boy-ish ones and are rock solid proof that they'll stand up to the thermal rigors of pizza baking.

Thanks again scott, that is something I have not done yet, but it will be easy. In my testing device, I heat 10" strips of the fired sample clay to over 1600 F. to measure total expansion. I will pull out a sample and dump it in water
to see what happens. I just ordered a graduated cylinder so I can figure out the specific gravity of some of the best
of the samples. I am trying to get a denser variation of cordierite that will transmit heat faster and still not crack. I have been working for months on this in between trying to make a living. I think I am close to a usable product, but
I keep thinking of new ideas that I have to test. I will be firing my big kiln again later this month and hope to have a bunch of new stones in it to see how they work.

Sounds good, George.
And I'm sure this goes without saying, but be careful with the quench, as there's a chance the cordierite sample might explode when it gets wet. This is more than just safety goggles, but real distance between you and water. Perhaps some more Rube Goldbergian inspiration might help.
