How GM plans to ride out a disturbing safety problem
The Exchange19 hrs agoThe first indication of a problem with the ignition switch on the Chevrolet Cobalt came in 2004, right around the time General Motors (GM) was launching the vehicle for the first time. It took nearly a decade for GM to issue a recall to fix it. In the meantime, at least 13 people died in 31 crashes that may have been related to the faulty switches. GM and federal safety regulators have known about many of those crashes for years.
Don't blame the weather for the frozen economy
The Exchange1 day agoWinter storms and a two-month deep freeze have gotten the blame for weak sales of jeans at the Gap (GPS), burgers at McDonald's (MCD), sedans at General Motors (GM) and shampoo at Walgreen's (WAG). But companies and economists may be a bit too eager to blame every recent downdraft in the economy on bad weather.
Nobody disputes it's been a brutal winter in some parts of the country, with a record number of canceled airline flights, a polar vortex that sent heating bills soaring and paralyzing snowstorms as far south as Alabama. Along with the lousy weather has come a string of disappointing economic reports. Job creation during the past three months has averaged a mere 129,000 per month, compared with 204,000 per month for the 11 months prior to that. At least 194 big companies cited weather in their latest earnings reports, according to FactSet. When the Federal Reserve released its latest overview of the economy, it mentioned weather 119 times — a record, as far as anyone can tell.
The startling Obamacare fee you may soon have to pay
The Exchange4 days agoOne percent of your income may not sound like a lot, especially if it's only a potential fee you might have to pay at some vague point in the future.
When that time arrives, however, 1% of your income might suddenly feel like a huge bite out of your wallet. And that time will soon be here for people who neglect to get insurance coverage as required under the Affordable Care Act.
March 31 is the deadline for people to enroll in a health insurance plan for 2014 or pay a penalty fee. There are so many complex details in the ACA that it's easy to lose track of what ordinary people are supposed to do. Plus, nobody knocks on your door or gives you a call to remind you of your civic duty. So it may come as an unhappy surprise to certain Americans that the penalty for foregoing health insurance in 2014 could be as high as $3,600 per person — and more for a family.
Even Obama seems to be losing faith in Obamacare
The Exchange5 days agoIf you'd like the government to change something about Obamacare, give the White House a ring. They're in a flexible mood.
President Obama this week approved yet another delay to provisions in the Affordable Care Act, giving insurers until 2016 to sell a type of insurance policy that's supposed to be banned under the health-reform law. The ban, which was supposed to begin this year, would prevent insurers from selling bare-bones plans that might be affordable but don't abide by 10 "essential service rules" required under the new law.
When insurers began canceling such coverage last year, however, several million Americans were forced off plans they had chosen, with most alternatives being more expensive. That undermined Obama's frequent claim that "if you like your health insurance, you can keep it," and turned into one of the most controversial elements of a law that hardly lacks detractors.
Wealth rebounds — but mostly for the wealthy
The Exchange5 days agoAmerica is rich again — if you add up all the money. But a familiar, unhappy tale is playing out as the nation recovers the household wealth lost from 2007 to 2012.
The total amount of household net worth hit a new record of $80.7 trillion at the end of 2013, according to the Federal Reserve. That's certainly better than the grueling declines that occurred during the twin housing and stock-market busts. But a deeper look at the numbers shows that the kind of wealth held primarily by the affluent — financial assets — has soared beyond prior levels, while the most common middle-class asset — home equity — is still far below prior highs.
Here are the numbers:
Total amount of financial wealth now: $66.9 trillion. Pre-recession high: $54.3 trillion (third quarter of 2007). Change since then: 23% increase.
Total amount of real-estate wealth now: $22 trillion. Pre-recession high: $25 trillion (fourth quarter of 2006). Change since then: 11.9% decline.
The changes aren't quite as stark if you adjust for inflation:
Total change in real financial assets from the pre-recession peak: 9.7% increase.
4 ways to become a worker companies will fight over
The Exchange6 days agoAt some rarefied level of the workforce, there's apparently a "war for talent" in which companies beg workers to sign on, throw money at them and ply them with perks to lure them from competitors.
You might assume this type of offer applies only to a few Mark Zuckerberg types in Silicon Valley. But companies increasingly struggle to fill certain jobs, and a recent survey by Payscale, a compensation-research firm, found 57% of firms say retaining workers will be a top concern in 2014 — up from just 20% saying that in 2010.
"The war for talent is heating up," says Cathy Shepard, a principal in the talent practice at Mercer. "I see it in specific functions or job categories, where there's just enough labor and you have to pick off folks from your competitors."
10 cities where ordinary people can no longer afford homes
Rick Newman at Yahoo Finance6 days agoIt now seems pretty clear that late 2012 or early 2013 was the ideal time to purchase a home: Real-estate prices and interest rates were both near record lows, creating an unprecedented buying opportunity for those who could muster a down payment and qualify for a mortgage.
Home affordability is still pretty good by historical standards, but typical buyers are once again being priced out in at least two dozen markets ranging from coastal hotspots to lower-cost inland cities. Three factors are pushing the cost of owning a home beyond the financial reach of ordinary families: Mortgage rates are ticking upwward as the Federal Reserve backs away from the super-easy monetary policy of the past five years. Home prices are rising as the economy recovers. And incomes are barely budging, which means typical families are once again falling behind as they try to bank enough to buy a home.
As Obamacare kicks in, doctor visits explode
The Exchange8 days agoThere's been an endless amount of speculation on how the Affordable Care Act will affect the real economy. Now we're finally getting data to displace the guessing.
Consumer spending in January was restrained except for one obvious exception: Spending on healthcare soared. It will take a while for economists to sort out the details, but it seems clear that new enrollees in Obamacare, as the ACA is known, were responsible for a burst of visits to doctors and other healthcare providers.
Spending on services, which increased by an average of .17% per month in 2013, surged by 0.9% in January, or more than five times the 2013 rate. That was the largest monthly jump in spending on services since 1998. Higher costs for energy explain part of the jump, since the cold winter has pushed up utility bills. But Obamacare seems to be a much bigger factor, by far.
Measured another way, spending on healthcare rose by an estimated $29 billion from December to January, or 1.7%, after adjusting for inflation. "The strength in this report was on spending in healthcare," says economist Chris Christopher of forecasting firm IHS Global Insight. "We're not seeing strength elsewhere."
Why your kids are "economically worthless"
Daily Ticker9 days agoRemember when children were an economic asset?
No, you probably don't, because that was back in the 1800s, when kids labored on farms and in factories and kicked in a few pennies to help cover the family expenses. "The more [children] you had, the better off you were," Jennifer Senior, author of the new book All Joy and No Fun: The Paradox of Modern Parenthood , explains in the video above. Since most kids produced a positive financial return for their parents, there was a natural incentive to have more.
The financial implications of having kids have completely changed, needless to say. The average middle-class family these days will spend about $295,000 to raise a typical kid, one reason the average mother now gives birth to just two children, down from three in the 1970s and more before that. With fewer kids, parents tend to dote on them more. Children, Senior writes, have become "economically worthless but emotionally priceless."
5 odd signs the economy is heating up
The Exchange11 days agoThe recession that ran from 2007 to 2009 seemed to be good for family cohesion: The divorce rate hit a 40-year low, lots of grown kids moved back in with their parents, and the proportion of people leaving their home town for greener pastures sank to the lowest level since the idyllic 1950s.
The family cohesion, of course, was largely an illusion. What really happened was that people put off big decisions that might have hurt their budgets, no matter how much teeth-gritting it required. The economy is still iffy, as new Fed chair Janet Yellen indicated in recent Congressional testimony, pointing out that jobs are still somewhat scarce and consumer spending hesitant. And the latest data shows the economy grew more slowly at the end of 2013 than previously thought.
Yet more Americans are now making the tough decisions they put off a few years ago, which might look like bad news but actually shows people are feeling more confident about taking risks, busting a career move or going it alone. Here are five offbeat indicators of a growing economy:

The Morning News At Branch
At A Glance: The Details
The pictures of the details of the construction of these massive pergolas is not just for our records. We will send a complete set of pictures to the contractor who will be charged with assembling the structures once they get to Florida. Though I have described this Branch project yesterday with few pictures and few words, the actual length of time and the attention to detail has been serious and long. At the risk of boring you beyond all belief, these pictures help to better tell the whole story.
welded lattice
Note the 2 by 4′s between the vertical panels. Great care was taken to square up the four posts before the roof would be dropped on.
Big enough to house a forklift
finishing the roof
Once both pergolas were finished, cradle structures needed to be built for the roof structures. They are too wide to lay flat. The maximum width of a flatbed truck is 8.5 feet. We are over the legal transport dimension limit. Not a problem. Terry, Michael, Sal, Dave, Enrique, Owen, Scott, Steve, Geri, Dan, Max, and Buck worked together to bring a big idea for the landscape to life. Start to finish. Am I happy with the result? Truly? Yes.
A Structure
Every project, no matter whether it is big or small, begins with that first step. I had several months of communication via email from a design firm in Florida. Could we build a pair of large scale pergolas for one of their clients? The emails flew back and forth regarding the design and dimensions. 8 weeks ago we had a call. The principal in this design firm would be flying up the following day to see Detroit Garden Works, and our operation at Branch. We were happy to oblige. Our design client was charming and discerning-that part was obvious. As a result of that meeting, Buck had 2 very large garden structures to build. A project of this size started with the first step. The cut steel stacked on a pallet pictured above represents some 960 pieces of flat steel that would form the lattice pattern for both structures.
The pergola roofs would be curved. Gracefully curved. Curving substantial tubes of steel involves a process that is anything but graceful. The proper tools and a measure of brute force more accurately characterizes the work. Any big project that comes along asks for a person in charge who can imagine, and engineer-that would be Buck. I sent this progress picture to our client early on. These 8 pieces of steel would become a pair of roof structures.
So much engineering precedes the actual construction. Buck figured out how to build these large garden structures such that they could be shipped. As few pieces as possible means that the reassembly on site would be straightforward. The frame of this short side panel is actually 3 pieces which would be unbolted for crating and shipping.
The leg and beam panels were finished in a lattice pattern. Three Branch fabricators welded the side panels lattice in tandem-from the ends to the middle. The order of events, and the community action of an associated group of welders, is more critical than you might think. The tremendous heat generated by welding can stymie the most careful design and planning. Happily for this project, Buck had it all in hand.
The side panels for this pair of pergolas have been done for a few weeks. They are beautifully and precisely made.
The construction of the roofs came last. Those curved pieces of steel contructed weeks earlier were welded into place.
Prior to the finish of the roof, Buck put one structure together. He needed to be sure that everything fit true, square and tight. The orange apparatus you see on the ceiling in the picture above is a bridge crane. The arm of the crane can move the block and tackle of the crane from one end of the studio to the other. And up and down. This makes it possible to handle the construction of very heavy objects.
The weight of this pergola? Close to 2800 pounds. I did take lots of pictures yesterday, as this may be my only chance to see this all put together. I can imagine that once placed in a landscape, these structures will be stately and beautiful. We are always appreciative when a client sends pictures of the things we make at Branch in the garden, but we don't always get them. These will go to a private garden.
The first day I walked into the building that would become the Branch Studio, I worried that I had bought place much larger than I would ever need. Yesterday it occurred to me that the size of this building had not only inspired the imagination of our group, it enables us to take on large projects. The ability to produce work on this scale doesn't come fast or easy. We had to grow up into it. There is an investment to be made in equipment and tools. But more importantly, there are those talented and hard working people who are able to work together as a group towards a common end. There's lots of listening, and lots of teaching.
Once the pergola was all put together, I saw cellphones come out. There were a lot of pictures taken. A sense of accomplishment and pride was in the air. As for Buck? Once he saw what he had designed, engineered and built go together perfectly, he was one very happy man.
The last roof was finished yesterday. Are all these guys at home relaxing? No. They are at work today for a half day, building the steel cradle/ crates that will hold the pergola roofs during transport. The crates are necessary, as the roofs are too wide to ship flat. It won't be long now when a 48 foot long flatbed truck will back into the studio, be loaded, and haul these structures to Florida. Well done, Branch Studio.
The Music In The Background
I have devoted several posts to Branch in the past week. Over the winter, we designed and made a catalog detailing all of the products we made. I had the idea to introduce our made in America ornament for the garden to a broader audience. I felt we were ready. The past 10 years has had its successes, and most certainly setbacks and failures. Bringing a hand made object to market takes a lot of time. There are mistakes made every step of the way. Solving problems creatively is not about minutes. It is about months, and years. As Seth Godin said, "all boats leak". No matter the best of intentions, it takes time and effort to hone a design and a manufacturing process such that your product stays afloat, the majority of the time.
We were a new company that needed time to get our house in order. Given that we are just about at 10 years sorting out who we are, and who we hope to be, I think we are ready to introduce ourselves to other people, in other places, who love the garden. Most of that introduction via our print catalogue is visual. But we printed a few paragraphs about who we are, and where we come from. Much of that commentary had to do with where we are from-the rust belt.
Our work in steel is grounded our history and experience. I grew up in Detroit. I rode my bike to JL Hudson's downtown, now and again, for a chocolate soda, when I was 12. And again when I was 14, 15, and 17. The gritty city-everything about that bustling urban downtown enchanted me. I biked it. This means I was on the ground floor whizzing by every factory and shop for 22 miles from my home. Those experiences made a big impression. There are many many things I cannot remember, but I do remember the city. So much to see. So much energy. The growing I could see every place I turned-loved that.
I so admire and appreciate the sculpture produced by the automobile industry. There was a time when Detroit made the issue of transportation an art. I am not such a fan of horsepower and speed as Buck is. I like the shapes. I love that the design is beautiful, functional, and made to last. Manufacturing is an idea that not only interests me, it is part of that music that plays in the background no matter what I am doing. Buck grew up in Texas. His grandfather was a carpenter. His father was a riveter at General Dynamics in Texas, in his earlier years. He became head of production some years later, until his retirement. If you are not familiar with General Dynamics, they were and are a huge defense contractor. They built the F-111, and the F-16 fighter jets. His Dad supervised the building of jets. Buck comes from a long line of makers, whose work involved steel and wood, and whose work involved great precision and exacting standards of construction.
The music in one's background-what is that? Simply stated, every person comes with an attitude, instincts, a history, a point of view, a skill set, a mind set, an aura that that makes for a particular music that plays in the background while they work. The fabrication of the Branch boxes, Italian style vases, pergolas, and fountains are infused with the music playing in Buck's background.
This pergola involved making very thick steel tubing conform to a round shape. The accumulation of a lifetime of fabricating skills, and a love of both geometry and industry is evident in all of the work he produces. His spheres are riveted. His pergolas are bolted together, so they can be broken down and shipped. They also have that industrial aura about them that recalls the history of structural steel buildings and bridges.
The moment I became aware of the Runwell watch, being manufactured in Detroit, by Shinola, I knew I had found the perfect birthday present for Buck. Everything about their philosophy, mission, and devotion to quality I knew would really appeal to him. But most of all, the watch is a very precisely and beautifully handcrafted instrument-made by a company in Detroit. http://www.shinola.com/
Precision made, by hand, in Detroit. This is music to my ears.

Guitarist and singer James Hetfield, born on August 3, 1963, in Downey, California, formed the heavy metal group Metallica with drummer Lars Ulrich. The band with underground roots became a multi-platinum act known for albums like Ride the Lightning, Metallica, Load and St. Anger as well as singles like "Fuel" and "Turn the Page." By 2013, Hetfield and the band had won eight Grammy Awards.
Early Life
Musician James Alan Hetfield was born on August 3, 1963, in Downey, California. The son of strict Christian scientists, James Hetfield was an outsider in high school, which was only exacerbated after his mother's death from cancer. He turned to music, playing with several garage bands throughout his teens.
Hetfield found a kindred heavy metal spirit in drummer Lars Ulrich, who had placed an ad in the newspaper looking for someone to jam with. Along with bassist Cliff Burton and guitarist Dave Mustaine, the two formed the straightforward heavy metal band Metallica in 1982.
The Making of Metallica
Though Hetfield didn't originally plan on being the frontman for Metallica, the role he won by default now defines the band. After relocating to San Francisco and replacing the unpredictable Mustaine with Kirk Hammett, Metallica began work on their debut album. The heavy metal group was rejected by various record labels for their aggressive sound, which led to their managers launching their own label specifically for the release of Metallica's album. Although it was a risky decision, the release of Metallica's debut album, 'Kill Em All, in 1983 proved to be successful.
Death of Cliff Burton
As the band's popularity continued to grow, they began touring in 1986 to promote their third album, Master of Puppets. While travelling on the tour bus, tragedy struck as the bus hit a patch of black ice, leading to bassist Burton was thrown from the bus, which subsequently flipped over onto him, and died. All of the members were deeply affected by the loss of Burton, but none more so than Hetfield. After the accident, Hetfield reportedly threatened to kill the bus driver and ran through the streets loooking for the black ice that caused the band members death.
The following day, Metallica went back to San Francisco. Fans of the band, in addition to the members of Metallica themselves, wondered if there was anything more that the band could do with Burton dead. It was Ulrich who convinced the band that Burton would've wanted them to carry on. And with that, they added Flotsam and Jetsam bassist Jason Newsted to the band and continued touring and prepping for what would be their biggest album.
Commercial Success
Two years after Metallica reformed to make up for the death of their bandmate, Hetfield and Ulrich wanted to take the band in a new, more mainstream, direction, even if it meant going against their hardcore rebellious image. With the release of their fourth album ...and Justice for All, the band released their first music video for the second single off of the album, "One."

your sexual girls pleased me... A girl - fire especially pleased... good job!
Hey you got some cool stuff! You have a good sense of colour and your pieces are well rendered and defined. I would have to say that perhaps you could show some more variety in the shapes of your faces. A lot of these girls look like the same girl. It could be what you're going for though. A lot of the guys I draw have a similar face too but it would be cool to see some more pushed and almost caricatured faces. I think it would compliment your style
I saw your work at deviantart.Glad to see you here!!!I really love your work,so here you got some stars from me!!!
Very appealing style. I love the clothing designs. Seen your work at the Chow a while ago I think, couldn't find a sketchbook back then. Glad I accidentally ran into it now. Trying to subscribe but can't find the button. :| Gave you some stars instead.
Good to see some progress shots too, very inspirational. Hope to see more of those especially. I'll be checking.
nice, really nice , line work is awesome
Great stuff!... I love your style!... Can't wait to see your Yin Yang piece finished.
Keep up the good work!
i like your last chow
i really like your coloring though and the design on the skirt.
pz great stuff here...
your coloring is superb
Beautiful work...
Oooh, luv it. I'm incredibly jealous of your PS skillz... will there maybe be a tutorial someday? *eager puppy eyes*
Stars from me Keep up the great work

I really like your linework and color schemes. I really like "The Temptation of Man," but I'm wondering if you could push it a bit more by messing with your highlights and shadows to get a bigger tonal range?
Great inspiration, love the girls and those foxes.
Waiting for more Grizz
wow very very nice work!
Bookmarked! Great stuff!
wow, looks great Girlie drawings are the best!
Please show us more!
So much talent in such a small space, your work is all really incredible
JessiBean these are great. I love seeing WIPs in different stages of developement as you have with the harp player and creepy lich thing. All of these have just beautiful dynamism. My eye can just go 'round and 'round all day. Your figures are great and each have good personality put into their respective posistions. And the colors! So bright so vivid! Makes me happy! The first is definately my favorite. If i had one crit, it would be to increase your contrast on some of the figures only slightly in a few small areas to more deeply express their volume, but even then i'm more grasping at straws than anything. You've got great style and wonderful flow in all of these. Keep up the great work!
LOTS and LOTS of thanks to everyone for comments, and to Garrett for your crits, definately need to work on my likenesses, and I will certainly push those further in the future...

He is based on a story a Jewish friend of mine told me once about going down to the river in Richmond on the New Year and feeding breadcrumbs to ducks, while thinking of and atoning for sins, and thus being cleansed for the coming year. I asked her if this means she passed her sins on to the duck... this image followed. Based on Catholic and Eastern Orthodox iconogrpahy and illuminated pages.

U.S. defense agency teaching open source
It says something about open source's impact on the world when the the U.S. Defense Information Systems Agency--a division in the Department of Defense--starts running seminars on how to shift to open-source software.
Could there be a better sign that open source has arrived?
After all, it's one thing to adopt open source, which the U.S. federal government has in earnest--but to advocate for it and teach it? That's a higher level.
The September 1 seminar, co-hosted by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and the Open Source Software Institute (OSSI), promises to … Read more

It had 4.10's.
I had a set of 5.29's for my other project that I put in right before the Loonie Run but during the Loonie I found out I really needed the HP front so I sold off the front LP with 5.29's and a locker. |

Flex Is OverRated
That's all i have is 4.7:1....wheeled it like that with 5.29's and 38.5's and now with 5.38's and 40's.....once on the trail i really see no need for another range....the only time i miss standard low is running around on smooth connecting trails. Here in MI its not a issue as i just pop it in high range but down south in the mountains high is a no go lol.

Yea, I end up switching in and out a lot. One case is 5:1 and the other is the 2.28. 5:1 is where I am in the rocks but sometimes like the lower double. Then like you say, gotta get higher to go from thing to thing on the trails.
I haven't had it out too many times yet so I am still getting used to it and figuring out what gear works for what. |

So putting a V6 high pinion center in a 4 cylinder low pinion housing presents some challenges.
First the bearing adjusters are way bigger and different. Not the rounded stamped steel like the 4 cyl has. They do not fit. And the ring gear is noticeably thicker. Thicker is better right? Either way, it don't fit. So clearancing is required. Ok, so that's done, then more problems. Pulled all the studs and replaced them with bolts. Toy people know, but others may not know that the studs can pull out. So I replaced them all and put loc tight on them to keep them there. The problem comes when I put the diff in. The mounting face on the 6 cylinder is far thicker than the 4 cylinder diff I pulled out of there. I didn't catch that before putting it together. So a lock washer won't fit and not enough threads are available for me to feel comfortable with just running a nut with loc tight. So the diff has to come back out, get cleaned back up and all new bolts put in. I said screw it for now and went on with setting the perches. Got the perches set and burned in. Set caster to about 9 degrees positive. Perches have 3 holes but I decided to use the center and not do the one inch stretch. The 1 inch stretch equated to just about a 2 inch difference in how the driveshaft splines engage at full droop. |

Cuomo to strapped municipalities, schools: Merge
Posted at: 03/16/2013 9:26 AM
By: Associated Press | WHEC.com
Print Story |
The state budget being shaped in New York may be remembered years from now as the beginning of the end of many small towns, cities and school districts.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo is upping his conflict with local officials who are facing fiscal crises and asking for more help from Albany. He says Friday that if things are really that bad, they should consolidate services or merge outright.
School districts and local governments are asking for more measures to cut labor, pension and other costs than Cuomo has offered in his proposed budget.
Local officials say they're already consolidating and taking on some mergers, but still need help including more money from Albany.

Can we expect multiple phone releases in the next few years?
There's a few different lines in the MacBook family for the example the MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and pro with retina. Same with iPods there are few different varieties there..and now the iPad with regular and mini.
Do you think we will see iPhone pro? Or iPhone air or iPhone mini? Would it be a smart idea for apple to release options like this? I just received my iPad mini and I am happy with it even with lower/older specs..maybe they will release a new phone with lower/older specs for folks on a tight budget, and maybe a super high end top notch phone as well. |

No. I think Apple will keep moving forward. Improving their phones with no thought to who can afford it or not. They will make the best phone that they can, with what improvements they deem necessary (or what the public wants) I don't see them bowing to who can afford what.

If they do, it'll likely be with screen sizes. iPhone at 4" then iPhone Max at like 4.5" would please me. Since they have the mini, venturing into 5" or higher would be a bit much. Maybe two variants of screen sizes but that still sounds unlikely.

They should keep the iPhone on schedule every fall and keep it 4 inches. Then starting this coming spring, they should release the iPhone 5s with a 5 inch 720p HD display with over 400ppi. You keep existing iPhone users happy with the iPhone and you also keep or steal those who want larger displays with the S version.. Then you follow that schedule every year.

I think they designed something as thin and light as possible, while still being able to cash in on the "275,000 optimized tablet applications." |

Multiple releases are not the answer. New and Innovative new iPhone is the answer. Not just improved.

As you have pointed out, Apple has multiple selections for most of their other products. When it comes to the iPhone it seems they stubbornly stay with only one updated product. Their other choices aren't really much of a choice. They are the previous year's products at a lower cost and rather than a new product line that's being updated with better specs like the iPad mini. I am very curious why Apple chooses to stay with only one sized iPhone when having two would ease many of the bitter complaints and discussions about different sizes. People have given several different theories as to why not, but Apple is company and if there is enough demand it would surprise me if they didn't make both. I do realize that unlike most companies, Apple does tend to do what they think is best even if it's not what others think is best, but they have also given into user's demands if there is enough of it. The iPad mini is a good example. Apple didn't seem to really want to make a smaller iPad, but with the popularity of smaller tablets from other manufacturers they decided to make two iPad sizes, so why are they still unwilling to make two iPhones sizes when it's such a hotly debated topic among users? IMO two sizes is all they need because I think it will satisfy the majority of users. |

If anything they will release a bigger screen version of the iP5, they already have low/mid/high tiers with the 4/4s/5.

I really hope not. I hope they continue to focus on just one device, and ramp up the quality. There are a plethora of other devices out there if the iPhone doesn't tickle your pickle.

But how many people would buy these phones? It's about profit first then the customer. Macrumors isn't the whole world. I think they're doing perfectly fine with the 1 phone a year.

Angler Garrett Kubota and Simms Guide Ambassador Captain Mike Costello pose with this 47 pound striper caught recently in the California Delta. Captain Costello sums up the conditions of the day: "To sum it up, the grab was violent, the great fish peeled off around 75 yards of line, and we were very lucky to land and photograph such a remarkable fish." We think they were fortunate to have relied on Simms gear as well. Here you can see Capt. Costello wearing Superlight Shorts, DL WINSDTOPPER® Vest, Bluewater Shirt, Pursuit Sandal, Microfiber Long Bill Cap. Angler Garret Kubota also brought along his Simms Guide Top for the great day on the water.

WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney's running mate shot down the need for a breakthrough in the first presidential debate Wednesday, trying to allay Republican concerns that the race is slipping away with five weeks to go and momentum on President Barack Obama's side.
Vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan praised Obama's debating skills and called the Democratic incumbent "a very gifted speaker" with years of experience on the national stage. He played down signs that Obama is gaining distance in the most competitive states. Polls are tight, Ryan said, and will stay that way until the election Nov. 6.
"We're running against an incumbent president with incredible resources," Ryan said. "More importantly, I don't think one event is going to make or break this campaign."
Yet at the same time, a prominent Romney supporter said he expected Romney's performance in Denver on Wednesday night would shake up the campaign after a "tough couple of weeks." Gov. Chris Christie, R-N.J., predicted Romney would do "extraordinarily well" in the debate, and that come Thursday morning, "this whole race is going to be turned upside down."
Romney is trying to rebound from a difficult September, and the three October debates offer a chance to help show that the race is winnable. Christie, who passed on a 2012 run for the White House but is a possible contender in 2016, called the domestic policy and economic debate in Denver "the restart of this campaign."
That confidence from a high-profile backer comes even as Americans are growing more optimistic about the economy and Obama's leadership, creating a significant obstacle for Romney.
Polls show Obama with a steady lead in many of the nine states where the candidates are competing most fiercely. If the election were held today, an Associated Press analysis shows Obama would win at least 271 electoral votes, enough for re-election. The analysis is intended to provide a snapshot of a race that until recently has been stubbornly close in the small number of the most contested states.
Obama headed to Las Vegas for an evening rally and planned to stay in Nevada as he prepared for the debate. Accompanying him was a cadre of advisers assisting with debate prep, including chief of staff Jack Lew, top economic adviser Gene Sperling, pollster Joel Benenson and speechwriter Jon Favreau. Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., who is playing Romney in debate prep, was traveling to Nevada separately.
Romney remained in Boston on Sunday, going through preparations of his own for Wednesday's event.
Ryan, a Wisconsin congressman, said on "Fox News Sunday" that the debate would mark Romney's debut "on this kind of stage." Romney participated in more than two dozen multicandidate debates during White House runs in 2008 and 2012, and went one-on-one against Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., during a losing 1994 Senate bid.
"They expect to come out of this with the race fundamentally changed. Now, what does that mean?" asked David Plouffe, a senior White House adviser. "If it's going to fundamentally change, that means in seven or 10 days from now you'll see states like Ohio tied, the state of Iowa tied because that's what really matters here. So they have set the bar quite high."
Christie said Romney needs to "tell the truth about what's going on" in the country while laying out "a positive and hopeful vision for the future."
"I think he can do both. Listen, Mitt Romney can walk and chew gum at the same time. I'm not worried," Christie said.
Ryan acknowledged errors by the campaign but urged Republicans who are publicly carping to join him on the trail to witness the forceful case they're making.
"We've had some missteps, but at the end of the day, the choice is really clear," Ryan said, adding that up until now, he and Romney "have not been able to frame that choice as clearly."

Testimony continued Monday in the corruption trial of former State Senator Pedro Espada Jr., as jurors heard from tenants who rented space at the former senator's Soundview Health Clinic in the Bronx.
Witnesses testified Espada's janitorial company overcharged for minimal services while renting.
They also made it clear that the rent arrangement was confusing since they did not know exactly where their money was going.
Prosecutors argue Espada operated the rent-scheme to steal money from the not-for-profit.
The former state senator is accused of stealing more than a half-million dollars from the health network.

Solid state lighting
Energy efficiency of light sources is typically measured in lumens per watt (lm/W), meaning the amount of light produced for each watt of electricity consumed by the light source.
Conventional incandescent light bulbs have a lifespan of around 500 hours, and convert electricity to light at an efficiency of around 10-18 lm/W. This means that most of the power is lost as excess heat.
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), often called "energy saving" bulbs, have a lifespan of around 3,000 hours, and convert electricity to light at an efficiency of between 35 and 60 lm/W.
Quantum dot LEDs have a lifespan of between 25,000 and 50,000 hours (up to 20 years at typical rates of domestic usage) and convert electricity to light at between 30 and 70 lm/W. They turn on instantly, and can be tuned to produce any shade of white light (or any colour).
As well as domestic lighting, quantum dot LEDs have an enormous range of potential applications in the public domain where longevity, accessibility (or lack of it) and economy are significant issues, for example in street lighting, traffic lights, exterior signage or vehicular lighting.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. -- Pittsfield Democrat Ben Downing will not be vying for the empty U.S. Senate seat if John Kerry is confirmed as President Obama's new secretary of state.
The current state representative had considered running but released a statement saying he will not after all. Downing said while discussing the option with friends, family and colleagues, he received overwhelming positive support.
Part of his statement reads, "After considering every aspect of a possible campaign, I have determined that I will not be a candidate for the U.S. Senate in the upcoming special election. I am blessed with a wonderful wife, great family & friends and an incredible job, representing the community that has given me every opportunity in life. I am excited to continue representing the people of Western Massachusetts in the State Senate..."

Sligo Creek Golf Course closing overnight for deer control this winter
SILVER SPRING, Md. (AP) — Police sharpshooters will kill deer at a Montgomery County golf course this winter to control the population.
County officials say the Department of Parks was asked to manage the population because of increasing vehicle accidents involving deer, Lyme disease from deer-borne ticks and damage to native plants that is affecting birds and other animals that rely on the plants.
The Sligo Creek Golf Course will be closed from 5:30 p.m. until sunrise in January, February and March while sharpshooters reduce the deer population. Park police will patrol during sharpshooting and signs will also be posted saying the park is closed.
County officials say contraceptives were considered, but that requires deer to be captured, tagged and injected by hand. And they say contraceptives used in other areas have not proven effective.
