Computer Hobbyists and Personal Computing
April–June 2014
This issue features several articles that give different perspectives on the emergence of affordable computers for use by ordinary people. Specifically, Kevin Gotkin's "When Computers Were Amateur" and Petri Saarikoski and Markku Reunanen's "Great Northern Machine Wars: Rivalry Between User Groups in Finland" look at the history of amateur computing from the perspective of the users, rather than that of the manufacturers or by focusing on technological artifacts. The issue also includes a discussion of the 1940s effort to convert ENIAC to the new style of programming first described in John von Neumann's "First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC" and an article by David Walden and his team of contributors that documents the emergence of the Arpanet Interface Message Processor (IMP) program and how it evolved to run on a variety of hardware platforms.

Interview with Jonathan Koomey
In today's era of battery-powered mobile devices, computing is being driven as much by energy efficiency as by performance. Research by Stanford University associate professor Jonathan Koomey discovered that since the 1940s, computers' energy efficiency has doubled about every year and a half. The Inside Story interviewed Koomey to learn more about his research and his predictions for the future. Hear interview and read full article »

Today is election day in Canada. David Frum says that the polls show a dead heat between the ruling Liberal party and the Conseratives, who not that long ago lost nearly all of their seats in parliament. Frum thinks the reason for the Conservative's comeback is that, although "Canada prospered in the 1990s, individual Canadians did not." And, in part, that was because "the lion

Ep #00011 – Perpetual Geek Machine Podcast
Hide ya kids, Hide ya wife…. it's another episode of the Perpetual Geek Machine podcast! Episode #11 is a number to celebrate really, it's no milestone or earmark of any kind. Yet I so enjoy doing the podcast that each one is a little celebration to me, a chance to really nerd it out and get into some goofy conversations… like about 3D printers made out of lego that print functioning lego pieces. Oh yea, we really get our nerd on here.
So I think I have a job for you, our intrepid listeners. If you enjoy our show we'd be forever grateful if you could tell your friends about us. Right now we do this show simply because we love it, and fitting in into our normal isn't always easy. As such we falter in to the advertising area, but I've always believed that word of mouth is better than a million bucks spend on google ads anyways. So if you dig the show, tell a friend to check it out… and as always we'd love to hear from you!
Here's the link to give Perpetual Geek Machine: Show #00011 a listen!

Borba Skin Care was founded by Scott-Vincent Borba in 2004. After becoming frustrated in his search to find products that would support his extremely sensitive skin, he founded his own line of fun, unique products to treat the body and the skin concurrently. Classics like the Age Defying Super Creme Day Moisture SPF 100 provide all day moisture without weighing the skin down or making it greasy.
Unique to the skincare industry, Beautyceuticals are a line of supplements and vitamins designed to complement and enhance the topical products. They address deficiencies in the body that may be contributing to dull, blemish prone or irritated skin. The topical products are rich in antioxidants to give skin that healthy glow. Angie, a loyal SkinCareRx customer, raved that when trying Borba Clarifying Complexion Repair Night Hydration Cream, she "loved how after a week and a half of use my skin cleared up like magic."

Weereewa – a Festival of Lake George was founded in 1999 to celebrate this magnificent ancient landscape in arts and environmental science activities and events. It has since been held about every 2 years.
2014 festival
The 2014 festival runs from February until the end of March with a wide range of events showcasing regional excellence in arts and culture– visual arts, dance, writing, music, cuisine and viticulture – and some focussed on the environment itself. This includes thinking and talking about environmental issues and getting out in the Lake George (Weereewa) region on foot and by bicycle.
There is also a noteworthy event at Goulburn Regional Art Gallery starting in January. Find the calendar for a summary of the program on the Program Calendar page. Explore fulsome details and have a look at some images on the Festival page.
The festival is managed entirely by a volunteer committee, members of which donate their time and expertise as community service. In 2014 we are funded through residual funds given by Infigen for the cancelled 2012 festival, a new grant from Braidwood and Bungendore Community Banks and a grant for the dance in schools program at Bungendore School from the Country Arts Support Program of Regional Arts NSW, funded by the NSW Government through Arts NSW.
The Bungendore Chamber of Commerce and Industry is sponsoring the community concert in the paddock, A Beautiful Noise on Sunday 16 March.
The Festival committee acknowledges with thanks the support of our funding bodies & sponsors: Infigen Energy, Braidwood and Bungendore Community Banks, the Country Arts Support Program of Regional Arts NSW, funded by the NSW Government through Arts NSW, Bungendore Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Lerida Estate, Gorman House Arts Centre, Create + Print, KV Productions.
We also gratefully acknowledge the support of our regional business and community partners: ANU School of Music, Artsound FM, A Suitable Book, Bungendore Mirror, Bungendore Public School, Bungendore Wellbeing Centre, Bungendore Wood Works Gallery, Café Wood Works, Canberra Museum and Gallery, Goulburn Regional Art Gallery, Le Très Bon Restaurant, Mirramu Creative Arts Centre and Mirramu Dance Company, PhotoAccess, Silver Wattle Quaker Centre, The Big Green Cup Café, The National Arboretum, Wick Consulting at Terroux, Writing with Light and X Gallery.

It was a busy night for Savannah firefighters after being dispatched to battle two separate house fires.
The first one was at a duplex on West 35th Street that left three people displaced. The Red Cross was called to help a mother and her two children after a blaze destroyed the duplex they lived in around midnight. Fire officials say only one-half of the duplex was occupied and the fire started in the rear corner of the occupied side. There is significant damage and a partial ceiling collapse near where the fire started.
Officials say the fire spread to the attic of the unoccupied side as well. The cause of the blaze is being investigated. Fire crews say they were able to salvage most of the family's clothing.
A second fire started at a vacant home on Helen Street around 1:30 a.m., destroying the inside. Fire officials are investigating the cause of that fire as well.
Both W 35th and Helen streets had to be shut down while fire crews battled both fires, but both roads have since reopened.

Many people also find that they feel a bit intimidated by their physicians, and once with a doctor, don't feel they have the right to switch, or worry that they will offend the doctor.
Remember – in a doctor-patient relationship, YOU are the client, and the doctor is providing a service. And if that service is not meeting your needs, the best thing you can do for your health is to find the right doctor who will meet your needs.
This is especially important when you have a chronic health concern that will keep you returning to your doctor regularly. Your relationship with your doctor is the foundation of your health and well-being. The wrong doctor may make it difficult – if not impossible – to return to wellness and optimal health.
How do you know when it's time for a new doctor? Here are some signs.
1. Your doctor doesn't respond to calls or faxes.
- Do you find yourself leaving message after message, but not getting a return call for days?
- Are you ending up going several days without thyroid medicine because your doctor won't approve a refill until you make an appointment?
- Are you ending up going several days without thyroid medicine because your doctor's office hasn't called in a refill, despite your requests?
- Are you finding out that the office staff are not getting your messages to the doctor?
- Are the office staffmembers rude on the phone, or in the office?
- Does the office regularly make billing mistakes, overcharge you, or lose paperwork?
- Have you ever showed up for a scheduled appointment, only to be told that there's no record of your appointment?
- Does your doctor refuse to look at any information you bring in from the Internet?
- Does your doctor think that everything on the Internet is foolish quackery, and tell you so?
- Is your doctor entirely unaware that the National Library of Medicine, most major medical journals, and the literature from most professional medical organizations is on the Internet?
- When you bring up a symptom or concern, does your doctor quickly assume that it's something like "age, hormones, not enough sleep" and fail to explore other medical causes?
- If you request a test for a particular condition, does your doctor say "You don't have that condition," and refuse to order a test?
- If you asked for a different drug, or a new drug for your condition, does your doctor usually refuse, without a reasonable explanation?
- Do you always leave your doctor's office with bottles and jars of vitamins, supplements, powders and potions, and books, videos or other materials that set you back several hundred dollars, and that the doctor claims you can only get from him/her?
- Does your doctor regularly recommend remedies that only he or she sells?
- Does your doctor regularly recommend costly treatments, provided at his or her office, that are not covered by your insurance?
- Do you find surprises in your bill, and charges that you don't understand, and can't get decently explained?
- Does your doctor pop in and out of the examining room or office to take phone calls while you are having an appointment?
- Does your doctor sit at his or her desk and read, go through mail, or type on the computer while you are having an appointment?
- Do you find that your doctor is asking you the same questions over and over, indicating that he or she doesn't remember what you've said?
- Does your doctor view each appointment independently, and not remember symptoms or conditions you've had in the past?
- Does your doctor fail to pull our your chart and review your history for a few moments to look for patterns in symptoms?
- Do you get the feeling like your doctor never has read your chart or history?
- Does your doctor have mousepads, pens, pencils, prescription pads, calendars, mugs, patient information literature, wall charts and posters, and other paraphernalia with drug or pharmaceutical company logos plastered on them?
- Does your doctor refuse to allow you to switch to competing brands of drugs, but fails to provide a rational reason other than "this drug is just better?"

As they prepare for their Showtime pay-per-view clash on Saturday night, Manny Pacquiao and "Sugar" Shane Mosley met with the Showtime production crew to talk about the fight. This is standard stuff and where a lot of the quotes you hear on broadcasts come from as they talk about "when we sat down with the fighters" and such. The Showtime promotional series Fight Camp 360 has released some bonus footage of these meetings:
Manny is joined by his head trainer, Freddie Roach, while Naazim Richardson accompanies Shane Mosley. The always outspoken and entertaining Naazim continues to push the idea that no one should be thinking about Manny Pacquiao as a "small guy" despite Mosley's height advantage and does it by pointing out that "Pacquiao has convinced you all he's two inches tall and weighs thirty-two ounces."
Follow all of our fight coverage in this Pacquiao vs. Mosley StoryStream, which includes updated news, odds, and live results the night of the fight. SB Nation's boxing blog Bad Left Hook also has extensive Manny Pacquiao vs. Shane Mosley coverage.

I was commissioned by a client to build a box for her daughter as a Christmas gift. Her daughter is really into horses, and she came back from a recent trip to Kentucky with an ornamental horse motif that she really loved. My client asked if I could incorporate this motif into the design, and this is what I came up with.
Dimensions are based on the golden ratio: 10×6 x 3.75". The sides of the box are made from a single board of locally harvested urban black walnut, re-sawn to about .375" thick with perfect grain match at all four mitered corners. Hot hide glue used throughout. The hinge is Shipwright's design and the client was very impressed with how nicely it works. Thanks for the blog on this Paul!
The outside lid features Boulle marquetry of the horse motif cut in walnut veneer on a field of maple burl, and the daughters initials cut in maple and walnut veneer on the inside. A single sliding tray is inside, and both the tray and the box bottom are lined with black leather which imparts a wonderfully luxuriant aroma upon opening.
Finish is traditional french polish which I built to a high gloss.
I got this done just in time for Christmas delivery, and both the client and her daughter were very happy!
Thanks for looking!

Great Job. I like the simple outline of the horse. I am impressed with the letters. I find them much harder to get to look right than a design. Any tricks you have on the lettering?

Very beautiful. Great job on the hinge.

Beautiful work Mathew. I like that horse head a lot. It is quite striking as a marquetry motif.

That is an awesome box. The woods work so well together, the finish is flawless, the marquetry so accurate, and of course the HINGES! Great job and I'll promise you made some horse crazy girl very happy.

What an awesome piece of woodworking skill. Attention to detail is perfection.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone.
John I spent a long time looking through fonts trying to find one that I felt confident I could cut, and in the end came back to plain old Times Roman. I cut the initials using Boulle method on the chevalet, and the only advice I can give is take it slow and keep it straight :)
I need a lot more practice cutting lettering, but I am getting better.

Wow Mathew!! That is a most beautiful keepsake for your client's daughter. The simplified lines in the Marquetry motif enhance its elegance. Stunning!!

The Terrapin Assassin
If we're going to run down the list of Duke hoops Texans, we can't forget Willie Hodge, Duke's greatest fouler.
He actually had some game. But man did he foul.
One time Duke was getting off the bus at Chapel Hill. Somebody asked "where's Willie?" Bill Foster replied that he had fouled out on thebus ride over.

Not long ago one of the Comcast sports channels in this area ran that most legendary of Duke-Kentucky games, and I was reminded in watching it of what a fine game Thomas Hill played, made a huge basket in the late going. Also had forgotten how high he could sky. Shooting guards from Texas are always welcome at Duke.
Sounds like our rivals will be trying to keep up with the Joneses.
Thank you, thank you...

Defense Attorney Daniel King, right, and Aurora theater shooting suspect James Holmes review advisement documents in court in Centennial, Colo., on June 4.
One year after 12 people were slain and dozens more wounded in a massacre at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., survivors and the families of the victims allegedly gunned down by James Holmes still have months to wait before learning if the former neuroscience student will be found guilty on first-degree murder charges.
The ongoing case, scheduled to go to trial on Feb. 3, 2014, involves thousands of potential witnesses and pieces of physical evidence and 40,000 pages of documents, all of which prosecutors and Holmes' defense team will sift through to determine what may wind up being the most critical question: Whether Holmes was sane when he carried out the shooting.
Twelve people between the ages of 6 and 51 died in the attack; 58 more were shot. Attorneys for the alleged killer wrote in a July 10 court filing that "Holmes suffers a severe mental illness and was in the throes of a psychotic episode when he committed the acts that resulted in the tragic loss of life and injuries sustained by moviegoers on July 20, 2012."
It was the first admission by attorneys for Holmes, who changed his plea in June to not guilty by reason of insanity, that their client was responsible for the heavily armed melee that left dozens more people injured.
Insanity defenses are used in less than 1 percent of criminal trials, according to Dr. Howard Zonana, a professor of psychiatry and law at Yale University. In most of those cases, the plea is successful when it had already been agreed upon by both the defense and prosecution before they go before a jury, he said.
At issue, Zonana said, is whether the accused appreciated the wrongfulness of what he or she was doing at the time, and so investigators and lawyers will sort through all the evidence they can gather about what a defendant was thinking before committing a crime.
"It's nice if the person was hospitalized three or four times before with exactly the same symptoms before they did this," Zonana said. "But if you don't have that, you try and gather data from a lot of other sources to show that this craziness was sort of there beforehand."
The evidence in Holmes' case is extensive, but court filings to date have given hints at his mental condition only in dribs and drabs. On June 25, Arapahoe County District Judge Carlos Samour granted state psychiatrists six additional weeks to observe Holmes, who was briefly committed to Denver Health Medical Center last November, according to court documents.
Defense lawyers have fought to obtain a video of Holmes while he was under psychiatric care at the facility, where he "remained for several days, frequently in restraints," they wrote in a motion filed in March.
Holmes was transported to the facility because he was "a danger to himself," the document states. In other motions, the defense team has argued that the tape may help assess Holmes' psychiatric condition.
"Moreover, the defense has spoken with the clinician who will be conducting the court-ordered sanity examination of Mr. Holmes, about the necessary materials he needs to conduct his examination," they wrote in a separate motion filed in June. "He expressly stated that video footage of Mr. Holmes while he was hospitalized at Denver Health is relevant to his sanity examination, and that he would like to view this footage."
The chances of an insanity defense proving successful in Holmes' case are "really, really slim," Michael Perlin, a professor at New York Law School, told the Denver Post.
Insanity defenses are allowed in every state besides Idaho, Kansas, Montana, and Utah. The standard is set by what is known as the M'Naghten rule, based on an 1843 trial of a Scotsman who killed a man he had mistaken for the prime minister of Britain. That test relies on assessing whether the person knew what he was doing and that it was wrong at the time of the offense.
Colorado is unusual among states with the insanity defense, however, in that the burden of proving Holmes' sanity at the time of the crime will fall to the prosecution. Among the evidence prosecutors would like cite in court, should the case get to that point, is Holmes' response when questioned by police immediately after the shooting, when he asked them "How do I get a lawyer?" and said he wanted to "invoke the Sixth Amendment." The Sixth Amendment pertains to a speedy and public trial by jury.
Statements that appear to show a clear head after the fact, as well as evidence that the accused person gathered firearms or other materials with the intention of using them to commit a crime, may undercut an insanity defense in the eyes of a jury, Zonana said.
"It's hard to explain to a jury at a time when somebody is psychotic and delusional that they can still plan," he said. "So when they see planning they tend to think, 'Well, he must have appreciated the wrongfulness.'"
The judge has also ruled that prosecutors can use a notebook sent by Holmes to a psychiatrist at the University of Colorado before the shooting. The notebook reportedly contains violent plans.
On July 10, Samour rejected a motion from defense attorneys, and said that Holmes would be anchored to the floor during his trial by a hidden restraint. The judge wrote in his order that the restraint is the least restrictive available and is "necessary for public safety."
The shock of the Aurora mass shooting, compounded for many by the brutal killing of 20 Connecticut elementary school children in December, sparked a national push for new gun control laws. Colorado was among the handful states to pass new restrictions on the purchasing and ownership of firearms, signing into law expanded background checks and limitations on the size of ammunition magazines.
For heartbroken relatives of people who died in the movie theater shooting, the case drags on. Victims have logged "a voluminous number" of calls requesting that they be allowed to attend Holmes' hearing or trial, according to a July 17 filing by prosecutors, but the judge has yet to rule on whether they will be given access. Until then, they wait, and the nuances of a psychiatric diagnosis for Holmes will bring little peace.
"Do any of us think he's insane?" Sandy Phillips, mother of shooting victim Jessica Ghawi, said after the judge allowed Holmes to change his plea in June. "No, absolutely not. He was way too meticulous to be insane.
"He's mean. He's evil. But he's not insane."

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
My 93-year-old great-aunt, Helen, told me she didn't use a cane because she'd been falling down all her life and if she used a cane she'd simply fall down with it rather than without it. She told me that most of the old girls in the neighborhood had replaced their traditional canes with shiny new aluminum tripod canes. Now three prongs weren't enough. Many of them wanted newer, shinier quad canes. She shook her head: "I think it's all just a fashion statement."
That was ten years ago. I thought of her words the other night, coming upon J. G. Ballard's reference to "the use of fashion as a political weapon."
Aunt Helen wasn't talking about political weaponry, and Ballard wasn't talking about multipronged walking sticks. Now they're both dead, and there's no asking.
But somewhere between the two—between the metal and the metaphor of things—lies the heart of what is known as punk.
Have you ever read a definition or description of any kind of music, be it plainsong or punk? Lifeless and untelling compared with hearing even just a few breaths of the music itself.
Nobody can say where it came from or where it went, and we should beware always of those who would bring sociology or any other ology to rock 'n' roll.
We could date the first, dissonant chord of punk to 1972, when Laszlo Toth took a hammer to Michelangelo's Pietà in the Vatican. We could consider punk the fulfillment of the 1816 envisioning by Thomas Love Peacock of a "deteriorationist" metaphysics.
In the spring of 1977, there it was, apogee and essence: from London, "God Save the Queen" by the Sex Pistols, right smack dab in the middle of Queen Elizabeth's Silver Jubilee; and from New York, "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker" by the Ramones, which appeared on the British charts before the American charts—on May 21, precisely five years to the day after Toth struck.
Both records were bigger hits in dear dying England than in the dear dying States. A grayer shade of gray: Margaret Thatcher and the ascendance of the new Tories there; the seemingly benign Jimmy Carter here.
As if on cue, Elvis croaked that summer.
Since the late nineteenth century, the term "punk" was used in American hobo and prison slang to denote a catamite. Its meaning eventually modulated as it spread to general urban slang: petty delinquent, then self-styled miscreant. Ultimately, while still carrying echoes of its earlier meanings, it was little more than an epithet to generally denigrate or dismiss any young male.
As it applied to one of many short-lived effusions of rock 'n' roll, the blur of punk between delinquency and posturings was well-suited to the edge of violence in the noise of the Sex Pistols, the misfit merriment in that of the Ramones, and all that lay between. Including females in its fold, punk in this late sense lost the echo of its earliest meaning.
It is easier and more illuminating to see punk for what it was not than for what it was.
In the context of its day, it wasn't glammed-up glitter rock or heavy metal. It wasn't blues-rock minstrelsy. It wasn't corporate album-oriented rock (AOR). It wasn't Easy Listening, or fusion, or progressive, or Adult Contemporary, or Tony Orlando and Dawn singing "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree." It wasn't Gloria Gaynor, the Village People, or disco. It wasn't the slick market-ready concept of Generation X or New Wave—at least not until it was dead.
If it was anything, it was a last gasp of life before the youths of the land returned to the all-American precepts of submission, greed, idiocy, and repression. Soon we would know them as yuppies.
That last gasp had as much to do with those who crowded the stage as those who were on it. Compared with the audience, punk's fleeting idols looked somewhat mundane.
Of course, Ecclesiastes is everlastingly right. Nothing was new. Boris Karloff wore four-inch platform boots in Frankenstein in 1931. Multi-zippered Schott black-leather motorcycle jackets and tight blue jeans were de rigueur street-punk fashion within a year of the release of The Wild One in 1953. Mohawk haircuts also date from the 1950s. Every form of hair dyeing, body piercing, and scarification is ancient and time honored.
Nobody saw what was coming. The Giuliani and Bloomberg regimes would stifle the last free breath in New York. The national economy would suffer a stroke from which the country would not recover. The lunacy of terrorism, Homeland Security, and "heroes" would render it brain-dead. All was spam. Life? Fun? Tweet me. Awesome.
Most of those today who are drawn to the music, look, ethos, and eidos of punk were not yet born when it flashed its moments in the pan. They are young people—mere punks, if you will—not drawn to the death-in-life of today's world. Different from those around them, they seek air in the thinning oxygen. It is always better to be born into a dull, doomed, and dead-end existence than to wake in it with the memory of liberty and abandon.
So what do you do with something that is dead? You put it in a museum. As Mick Jagger some years ago rightly said, though wrongly attributing the words to Jean Cocteau: "Americans are funny people. First you shock them, then they put you in a museum."That was before the Rolling Stones sadly began to censor their own lyrics for the sake of political correctitude.
Thus, we have Punk: Chaos to Couture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Not the Museum of Modern Art, but the big one. The vast Gothic Revival mausoleum of the greatness of the ages. Giotto, Botticelli, Raphael, Rembrandt, mummified Egyptian guys. The big one.
Museums. "Art appreciation." If you have to be taught to appreciate something, it can't be much good. Who ever heard of sex appreciation, drug appreciation, pork-chop appreciation? I shall not forget being asked to extinguish my cigarette at the Apocalypse exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in 2000. Welcome to the end of the world: No smoking allowed.
And runway shows. Models parading louche and haughty down gangways in punk-inspired designer fashions.
The metal and the metaphor, the Met and the merchandise. I am still lost as to what J. G. Ballard was talking about. But it is clear that Aunt Helen, who outlived the Floradora Girls and punk alike, made sense.
As I wait against all odds for the final exhibition, the final fashion show—Living the Lie: Credit Stimulation and Style—I wonder what will be the choice of the punk survivors of 36 and more springtimes ago as they enter senescence: three prongs or four, or, just imagine, five.
Nick Tosches' new novel, Me and the Devil (Little, Brown and Company), is out now.

Driving deep in New Orleans' territory, the Green Bay Packers were threatening the end zone when Aaron Rodgers rolled out right looking for a receiver, only to be greeted with a facemask from safety Malcolm Jenkins. It wasn't just a penalty, as Rodgers sustained an eye injury that took him out for one play, and that's all it took to change the game.

In his stead it was Graham Harrell who was asked to step in and play caretaker. He was asked to do one simple thing– hand the ball off the Cedric Benson, and get the heck off the field; hopefully in time for Rodgers to return from his injury. That, well, that didn't go so well.
Tripping over the feet of center Jeff Saturday, Harrell bumbled the ball, botched the hand-off, and turned it over. What's worse is that the New Orleans Saints just completed a huge touchdown pass, and are now in the lead. The eye troubles for Rodgers may be continuing, as he just threw an interception to Patrick Robinson while looking for Jordy Nelson.
Ladies and gentlemen, we present Graham Harrell. a quarterback in the National Football League. Sir, you better discount double check yourself before you wreck yourself... and the entire team.

funny you ask this as I have been walking around a lot with my 70-200 and not bothering to take any other lens with me and using my iphone as my wide angle camera. Seems to work for me, IQ is on par with just about any other mid range PS out there plus it has the advantage of being very light and something Id take with me anyway. It also is the best PS on the market for taking the photograph, doing some quick pp through snapseed and off to my facebook or flickr accounts. But if that doesn't work for you I'd invest in the 17-55 f2.8 IS over any of the wide to normal primes especially on APS C. Its way more flexible and you don't lose much if anything in the IQ department. My 17-55 was glued to my 7d.
If you're taking photos with facebook or flickr as the only location of the end-product, you don't need a DSLR.
what a terrible post, majority of the people who have dslrs dont need them but its a hobby. you didnt need to post this but yet you did.

East Palo Alto police call off crime emergency

Come on, Just because there has been three weeks without a shooting, they want to call it quits. Let's wait and see how long will be before we hear the shootings, perhaps one day or one week. Whey would they stop it if they claim that is working? Things are not going to be fixed in this three weeks, this should crime emergency should stay longer if not permanent.
on Jun 11, 2013 at 10:51 am
They should not tell the gang members that the operation is over
let them think that it is still going on, but that is taking the overtime away, Humm, just a thought
on Jun 11, 2013 at 2:52 pm
I think that this kind of statement could prove to be extremely counterproductive. After all I can easily imagine lying low until the police stepp away, which is just three weeks later. MY feeling is that to truly impact this terrible situation the program either needs to be permanent or permanent if even at a somewhat lower level of staffing.
We have had 3 good weeks so we are going home makes no sense to me.
I should like though to acknowledge the good work that has been done by the PD during this time, my point is - keep it up.

Bernie Ecclestone's days as F1 supremo could be nearing an end - but it is his age, not his legal trouble, that is responsible.
Ecclestone has been at the helm of Formula One for 40 years, however, as he is set to mark his 84th birthday later this year he admits he's contemplating retirement.
He told The Mirror: "I'm going to be 84 at the end of this year so I am probably going to have to start to think, 'Do I want to go into the 85th year doing what I've been doing for goddamn how many years'.
"It's something I'll have to give some very serious thought to."
The F1 supremo refuted suggestion that his pending court case in Germany, in which he will have to answer charges of bribery, was planning a role in him considering retirement.
"No," he said. "That's nothing. No, no. It's the way people have to run businesses today compared to how they used to.
"I never knew about corporate governance back then, different committees, ethics committees and God knows what else boards to report to. I never reported to any.
"I didn't know about any of these things back then. Probably, if I had of done, I wouldn't have lasted as long as I lasted.
"And we will be more restricted as time goes on. That's how the world is. It's coming that way. I don't agree with it.
"What we are slowly but surely managing to do is get rid of entrepreneurs. Getting rid of people who think outside the box."
Pressed as to how difficult it would be to walk away such as 'leading sports stars do at the top of their game', Ecclestone said: "They do these things though you know...
"The important thing is to know when you should hang the boxing gloves up. So you are not going to end up going into the ring and getting a good hiding."

The fact that it takes me 40 mins to get to work every day also means I have some time to burn in the car, thus my ears need me some NBA drivel! The one thing that is uber-important to me is audio quality. There are couple of podcasts that have great content, but the audio is so shit it frustrates the heck out of you. I do however realise that some are these are done by professionals out of studios (ie: they're paid), and some of these are just super-fans doing good. I've only ranked the top 7, and then made brief mention of a few others. Here goes…..
1) The Basketball Jones 9/10
Pros: These guys have figured out the right blend between analysis / (OK, its fan-based observation) & humour. Skeets, Tas, Trey Kirby & Lee Ellis are great. The audio quality is pristine too, + the fact that they do 5 x podcasts per week during the season is awesome. Also stacks of Twitter interaction with listeners.
Cons: Only negative thing I've got to offer is that they could have more guests on the show (players, ex-players, analysts etc).
2) Jalen Rose (via Grantland) 8.5/10
Pros: Jalen & Jacoby do a great job & again the audio quality is great. The best parts are Jalen's inside stories from his playing days & also general insight into the life of an NBA star ("champagning & campaigning").
Cons: not as regular as fans would like (generally once per week) & sometimes they skip a week (boo Jalen).
3) NBA Today (ESPN) 8/10
Pros: You want analysis? This is the hotspot with the mainstays being Henry Abbott (True Hoop), Ryan Russillo (like a boss) & Tim Legler (Leg-time Sories). Great audio too (der, it's ESPN!)
Cons: Basically dead during offseason. Sometimes Rusillo takes a week off dammit (& then get attacked on Twitter).
4) CBS Sports Basketball Podcast 7.5/10
Pros: Recent "new-comer" this one, & I've been pleasantly surprised by how professionally this is done. Their season preview stuff (running right now) is really good with a blend of interviews with team analysts, beat-writers & bloggers. The show's host Matt Moore has a great style & his depth of knowledge right across the league is top stuff.
Cons: They went super quiet for a while there with no new content for months, and I thought they may have died.
5) Bleacher Report (NBA) 7.3/10
Pros: This is a relatively new one to the fold. Joel & Ethan do a pretty damn good job actually. Their matter-of-fact analysis blended with differing opinions works well.
Cons: Ethan is a Laker-man, so there's always that.
6) Bill Simmons Report 7/10
Pros: Great guests + Bill does a fantastic job of representing the average fans perspective (cos he used to be one). His buddy House is pretty cool too. They're "over & under" episode predicating where every team will finish is one of my fav episodes of the year.
Cons: Very rarely is it NBA only, & I find myself trolling for it & usually it's NFL... blahhhhh.
7) HoopsSpeak Live 6.5/10
Pros: Content & knowledge is right up there. So are the quality of guest bloggers / analysts. These guys really know their shit & their sense of humour is well-infused too.
Cons: I really like Ethan Sherwood-Strauss & Mason Beckley so it pains me to say this, but the audio quality is terrible at times. It's just so frustrating because the podcast content is awesome. Here's hoping they can rectify it & they'd be top 3 for sure.
Honourable mentions to a few others:
"Brewhoop", I probably don't need to tell you guys about this one... Whilst it can be sporadic at times, when it does air the guys do a great in-depth job for Bucks fans. Steve Van Horn, Dan Sinclair & Frank Madden know & love their Bucks inside out, & I know for a fact that even non-Buck fans (call them observers) enjoy their tormented love-affair with Milwaukee & their somewhat tortured mid-market team. Something about a potential cinderella story (even if its only once every 10 years) that people like. Good job Brewhoop.
"FreeDarko presents: The Disciples of Clyde podcast". This can actually be very cool at times. I especially loved the midnight plea to the Knicks to keep Jeremy Lin. Gold.
"Warriors World". Brand new podcast from the guys that do the Bay Area Suger Free podcast. Only 1 episode in & obviously heavy on Warriors content, but definately gonna be a winner.
"ESPN NBA Fantasy" is legit if you are a fantasy nut during the regular season.
Dishonourable mention:
Hang Time (official NBA)
Pros: Oh dear..... let me try & come up with some positives. Great audio qual. High calibre guests from time to time.
Cons: How do I say this nicely? Sikou Smith is terrible, just so bloody annoying. Laughs at his own jokes & drags Lang Whittaker down into the celler with him. To be honest, I only download this one when I've listened to EVERYTHING else & I'm desperate. The NBA should be able to do SO MUCH BETTER.
Australian mentionsBeing an Aussie it would be remiss of me not to give a few shout outs to the handful of bball podcasts regularly pumped out down under. These guys all love their hoops & it shows through. Aussie Hoopla does an awesome job of NBL & international content, + they also get some high calibre guests on board. The guys at Courtside definately know & love their NBA & I particularly liked their recent Heroes vs Villains episodes. That Basketball Show is another strong aussie take on NBA happenings run by "Train" & "Pumpa". Nice job guys. Finally, the last shout-out is for a podcast called The NBA Crossover which is a Knicks / Nets specific take on things by Rusty & Pmac.
