Get The Full 3D Experience At HomeThe UN40F6400 is the first in the series of Samsung's 2013 Smart 3D LED TVs. This 40" LED TV features impressive motion clarity and picture quality with Clear Motion Rate of 480, Micro-Dimming technology, Full HD 1080p resolution, and Full HD 3D – the 3D image processor naturally enhances your 2D picture. Along with the picture quality, you'll receive Samsung's improved Smart TV platform with a full web browser, built-in Wi-Fi, and a dual core processor. The Smart Interaction of the 40" Smart 3D LED TV features voice control via the Smart Touch Remote and limited motion gesture (Samsung Skype Camera required and sold separately). You receive all of this and more in a slim LED TV design with the Samsung F6400 series Smart TVs. The F6400 series is also available in 46", 55", 60", 65", and 75" screen sizes.
Smart TV 2.0Discover more of the TV you love with the Samsung 40" Smart LED TV. Use gestures to navigate within the 5 content panels within the Smart Hub or simply speak into the mic on the Smart Touch Remote to get S-Recommendation content recommendations. Samsung Smart TVs allow you to easily discover shows, social posts, and movies with more watching and less surfing.
Smart HubSamsung's Smart Hub underwent a major overhaul and now includes 5 convenient panels. The new Smart Hub of the UN40F6400 organizes your entertainment options across these panels: On TV, Movies and TV Shows, Social, Apps, and a panel for your Photos, Videos, and Music.
S-RecommendationDiscover what you want to watch and new content without the channel surfing, but by asking your TV. The 40" 3D Smart LED TV will respond to your voice and find customized selections of content for you to watch based on your preferences. Simply ask your TV for recommendations while you're watching TV, for instance "what basketball games are on?" or visit the S-Recommendation hub for new things to watch.
Full Web BrowserThe UN40F6400, a 40" Smart LED TV by Samsung, allows you to sit back relax and leave the computer or the phone alone. Every website will be displayed just as it would on your desktop or smart phone. Checking your email, updating your social network status, and browsing the web have never been so convenient and fun.
Dual-Core ProcessorWith twice as many processors as a conventional HDTV, you can do two times as much work at once. Samsung's Dual Core processor enables multi-tasking on your UN40F6400, so there's never any down time. Downloading an application and browsing the web at the same time is made possible without slowing the connection down.
Smart Interaction 2.0The Smart LED TV offers new and easy ways to interact with your Smart TV and discover new content. Samsung Smart Interaction returns better than ever thanks to S-Recommendation and new voice and gesture commands. Now you can control your TV in new and unexpected ways by speaking into the built-in microphone on the Smart Touch Remote Control along with hand gestures. Use everyday language and casual gestures to find content or command and control the TV.
Motion ControlUse hand motions to control your UN40F6400 Smart LED and browse the Smart Hub, play games, and more. The hand motions and gestures have been improved with Smart Interaction 2.0. (Samsung Skype camera required and sold separately.)
Voice ControlWith Smart Interaction 2.0 voice control received an update as well. Voice control takes place at the remote control without the need to mute your TV, turn it down, or yell all the way across the room because the program you're watching is too loud to pick up your voice. The library of commands for voice control uses everyday language to speak naturally into the Smart Touchpad Remote control and get instantaneous results.
Samsung Full HD Active 3DThe UN40F6400 features Full 1080p High Definition Active 3D, the included 3D glasses never filter any lines on the TV which allow a crisp, clear picture, with minimal blurring and obscuring of the picture.
2D to 3D ConversionDon't have any 3D Blu-rays or have a limited amount of 3D content at your disposal, no worries; your 40" 3D TV can convert any 2D image to a 3D image. With Samsung 2D to 3D conversion your 3D library is endless.
Full HD 1080pYour Samsung 1080p TV makes no compromises for picture quality. You'll experience amazing attention to detail, regardless of the content or format, with Full HD 1080p resolution.
Clear Motion Rate 480The Samsung UN40F6400 LED TV has a CMR of 480 handles motion 8 times better than their base model. Clear Motion Rate is Samsung's answer to an industry littered with inflated performance numbers. The current panel refresh rate standard isn't an accurate measurement of how well a TV can handle fast motion. CMR is a more accurate way to measure and inform you how well and LED TV handles motion. Clear Motion Rate takes 3 factors into consideration: panel refresh rate, image processor speed, and backlight technology. The higher the CMR, the better performance the TV will give you when watching fast action movies, video games, or sports.
Micro DimmingSamsung's Micro Dimming technology is a software enhancement that breaks your screen into separate dimmable zones and uses special scanning technology and algorithms to deliver greater contrast and sharper images. With Micro-Dimming Your UN40F6400 LED will achieve deeper blacks and more vibrant colors for a better 2D and 3D viewing experience.
Wide Color Enhancer PlusWide Color Enhancer Plus ensures that you are seeing the entire RGB color spectrum on screen. The colors of your 40" LED TV are bold and vibrant, yet natural looking.
Samsung Smart ViewNever miss a second of action with Samsung Smart View for your UN40F6400 Smart TV. Smart View allows you to move content wirelessly between devices in real-time.

DTS 2.0 + Digital OutDTS 2.0 is an advanced audio processing codec that decodes DTS multi-channel audio and then mixes the signal down and outputs 2-channel audio, played via stereo speakers. The digital out allows the device to output the DTS stream via HDMI or S/PDIF to a receiver for further decoding.
DTS Premium Sound™ 5.1DTS Premium Sound™ 5.1 enables seamless delivery of content across the internet to web connected devices and provides an immersive surround experience using your UN40F6400's speakers.

Eco SensorThe UN40F6400 has a built-in light sensor that measures the lighting in the room and adjusts the brightness of the picture; lighter or darker depending on environment.
Energy Star 6.0Samsung TVs not only meet Energy Star requirements, they exceed them. This means lower utility bills, more energy savings, and a smaller carbon footprint on the environment. You save money and it's good for the environment!
Good tv for the money
A Clear Motion Rate of 480 is a remarkable level of motion-clarity. TVs with this CMR can display action-packed movement with in-depth sharpness clarity and contrast. Clear Motion Rate was developed to accurately measure how well an LCD or LED TV can depict fast moving images. Previously motion-clarity was calculated by the frame refresh rate alone. But CMR offers a more complete measure by calculating 3 factors: frame refresh rate image processor speed and backlight technology.
For the 40" line of TV's this set is full of features and items to that will make you go wow. This TV will give you years of great entertainment as long as you don't mind pairing it with a nice sound system.
A huge improvement over comparably priced vizios or 3rd tier manufacturers, but like all electronics you get what you pay for. For a little more you can jump into nicer features like 240HZ, Quad Core Processing, Higher Refresh rates, etc.
One of the better options in the size if you're looking for a fully loaded 120hz set

It's the Tube strike drinking game!
So, I'm going to arrive home on Wednesday to a scene of utter catastrophe, a ruined capital city where nothing works and nothing's getting done.
Or, to put it another way, Bob Crow's swinging the lead again by "holding Londoners to ransom". Or fighting for his members' rights by calling a Tube strike. Whatever, the way it gets reported, you'd think angry, rabid tigers had been deliberately released onto the capital's streets, causing destruction wherever they roamed.
If I were you, I'd "work from home", crack open the drinks, and play a little drinking game. With apologies to The Guardian's peerless daily football e-mail, The Fiver, it may be the only way to get through a day of lazy and cliched coverage of one of the capital's perennial pains in the backside…
- BBC London says the strike is causing "chaos" (a finger of rum)
- Evening Standard refers to "Tube strike hell" (two fingers of rum)
- Evening Standard calls it "misery" (three fingers of rum)
- Footage of Boris Johnson on a bike with other commuters (trebles all round)
- Footage of Boris Johnson falling off his bike (another round of trebles, chaps!)
- Someone calls the RMT "dinosaurs" (a litre of White Lightning)
- "Why are they so well paid anyway? All they do is drive trains!" (a bottle of Meantime Brewery's Union beer)
- Tory council leader demands congestion charge is suspended (glass of Harveys Bristol Cream)
- Ken Livingstone offers "advice" to Boris on TV (bottle of brown ale)
- At breakfast time, BBC London goes "straight to the Scotland Yard cameras", as if anyone with a brain will go by car. (triple gin)
- National broadcast media dwell on strike like it's the most important thing in the country. (a tot of brandy)
- Uppity Scotsman sends a text message to BBC 5 Live Breakfast to say he doesn't care about the Tube strike. (pour a pint of McEwans Export over radio)
- Phone caller to radio station upset at having to walk two miles. (small glass of absinthe)
- Bob Crow complains about "bullying", demonstrating slight lack of self-awareness. (A Watney's Party 7)
- Commuter gets fined for trying to use Oyster pre-pay on mainline rail, despite TfL pledge that it'll be allowed. (three fingers of Bacardi)
- Smug south-east London blog writer pens hilarious post disparaging Hammersmith for "not really being London anyway, it hasn't got a mainline rail station, how are we meant to get there?" (a pint of Guinness and a bag of dry roasted)
- Footage of Tube trains in depot. (two fingers from the slops in your local pub)
- Footage of shapely woman on roller-skates. (a whole flask of weak lemon drink)
- Footage of queues for bendy buses at Victoria Station. (a shot of Baileys)
- Boris Johnson reaffirms commitment to scrap bendy buses. (large glass of cheap white wine)
- Footage of Bob Crow in Wembley Stadium for England match. (two fingers of scotch)
- Vox-pops with England fans on Olympic Way (can of Stella).
- 33,796 England fans sing "Bob Crow, is a wanker, is a wanker" live on ITV1 (case of Stella, followed by 18, 453 and 53 buses home)
- The whole charade happens again next month/ next year. (a pint of Domestos on the rocks)
- London news media properly investigate why industrial relations on Tube are so bad. (a shot of… hang on, that's just taking the piss)

Now, this is something I could see myself playing.
Excellent! Whilst browsing all of this Tube Strike stuff (as much as anything to find out if I have to go in tomorrow or not) its nice to finally find something on the interwebs that isn't negative! Well not a union-bashing, we-don't-need-staff-anyway kind of negative.
This morning I picketed. I was being kind, cos I'm a nice guy, I love the job I do, so I was telling people get back in your cars there are no trains. Some guy goes "of course there are there are Chilterns!"
I advised him, "no, there are no trains." so he asked me gruffly, "why not!?" When I explained it was because there are no staff, he told me how ridiculous I was, and you don't need staff to run trains….
Asides from that being a little silly (maybe he just didn't think before he spoke, it was before 7am), you'd think the fact there are no staff… and no trains would suggest his assessment was wrong!
3.1, you're not doing yourself or your colleagues any favours here. You really reckon some people are striking about PPP? Um, sorry, stable door, horse bolted. Striking because you're naffed off about a stupid decision taken several years ago isn't going to win you any sympathy votes. And "alleged" recession? Where have you been while the rest of us have been facing pay cuts, salary freezes and mass redundancies for at least the past year? Idiot though he may be usually, for once, I'm with Boris.
Well bumbling Boris the baffoon has really done it this time. I wonder if he had just finished playing the drinking game when he stuck his clown feet into the negotiations and scuppered the deal.
He should never have left have I got news for you. At least we could chuckle at his stupid floppy hair and smile at his blubbering comments.
You stupid Londoners voted him in, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT??
Not laughing now eh ! Vote Bob Crow for the next London Mayor he will certainly sort the tube out.
"WORLD CLASS TUBE"???? My arse
Power to the people and all that.
By the way how do I get out? push pull? stupid gate..
OMG where are the station staff when I need them.
But alas – where's the Pimm's O'clock?!
Seems a long time since I was catching the Eurostar from Brussels. Took forever to get back because of the go-slow through the Channel Tunnel.
3.1, several people this morning demanded to know why "no-one has told us about this". What can you do? Chiltern Railways managed to tip a train out on Amersham platform at 06.27. Amersham station was closed, unmanned, and had locked doors.
What a messed up world. Overgrown boys who kick a ball around a field get hundreds of thousands for 90 mins of playtime. Politicians get thousands to make new lies to tell the people. Musicians get thousands for doing what we all dream about doing. Mechanics charge hundreds to change your oil, then don't do it. No-one bats an eyelid.
Someone has the audacity to ask for a payrise after enduring a company propagandathon (which I found interesting at the time!) which told us all how we were way ahead of target. Taking 4million passengers a day years before they'd hoped we would. 4 million people who's fares go up every year… doesn't seem unreasonable for us to ask for a slice of the pie that we made for them.

Sochi Turns Up In To A "Ghost Town"
Sochi once was the hottest spot on earth during the winter Olympics that was held in the year 2014. The Russian city during the period of the Olympics was filled with various tourists filling in the stands of the stadiums. The world class infrastructure that was built during the Olympics is now left alone without being used at all. It is a picture that is similar to all the cities who once was a host of a major sporting event.
The winter Olympics was hosted in the city of Sochi Russia this year. The country spent millions of euros to construct the world class facilities that were used during the games. A special 40,000 capacity stadium with world class seating arrangements was built but currently it is of no use. The various shops and other arrangements were made to lure the people coming from the various countries. During the games it was a city which seemed to be celebrating a festival of sporting events. The streets and shops were filled with all the guests coming from various cities across the world to cheer their teams.
Once the town was most sort after town in the country of Russia but today the city of Sochi is nothing less than a Ghost Town. As soon as the various visitors and the media personal left the town the city lost its life. Currently all the shops that were built are of no use. The stadiums are left empty and the streets are without any people on it. The media reporters visited the place a week earlier and found that it is nothing but lifeless. The stadiums that were built for the games currently is of no use but the city will be back in life during the winter skiing championship and 2018 world cup.

Plymouth next generation diving stars proceeding to follow Daley's footsteps
Tom Daley, Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow should better check out as now the young lot of Plymouth divers is really making mark.
Diving's future as a sport looks certainly bright in Plymouth post some great performances from a good pool of Sheffield based Plymouth Diving's youngest members.
The club got in several junior members to the finals of National Skills, where the country's most impressed and best lots get the chance.
Piper (Oscar), who turned into a virtual sensation 2 years back when Tom posted the video featuring the little one leaping off 10 m, has won gold in boys' 8-year-old category.
Oscar won by quite a huge margin which offered the deserved value to his hard effort. Tom Grave was another gold winner from Plymouth. Grave competed in 14-16 boys' section & has shown great progress in the recent months. He scored 12th position at Nationals last year.
But this Grave was in top 3 all through the event & he showed great merit by wining the gold.
When it comes to great progression, Matthew Third should be mentioned after Tom Grave. Third improved himself a lot in the past 12 months and even claimed a silver in 10-year-old boys' event, He stood 5th in younger age the past year.
Another young achiever was Sam Isaac who secured silver in 12-year boys' competition.
Isaac's 2nd place was quite a major achievement for him as he ha just started competing.
Added to Grave, Piper, Third and Isaac, some other young Plymouth divers came up with brilliant performances, but could not win on the medals. These include Euan McCabe (who came 4th in boys' 9 years), Aaron Treeby (5th in 13-year-old boys' section), and Abby Fishleigh (who came 7th in 12 years girls' category).

Five... great iPhone racers
Ground Effect
I found Lil'Racerz to be very buggy, unfortunately. It was fun and had lots of amusing touches (for example you can run over the spectators if you skid off the track and they'll try to run away from you).
I've really enjoyed Ground Effect by the guy who wrote Populous. It's a very chilled out racing game.

The best sci-fi film never made: Also-rans take a bow
No Hinterlands?
Sad that Hinterlands by William Gibson didn't make the cut. That's one of the best stories about alien-ness I've read.
So, what's the best sci-fi film never made?
I'd love to see a movie version of Hinterlands by William Gibson. It's a haunting story, and it could probably be done on quite a small budget.
Ubuntu's high-risk Linux Narwhal beta floats
Can't wait

Hardly a new trend...
"...a worrying trend: Microsoft appears to be copying what someone else did rather than having any confidence in themselves and providing any real innovation or design leadership"
Worrying trend? Sounds like business as usual. MS' big successes have come from reproducing other companies' innovations. Their big failures from trying to innovate themselves.
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Narrative games are always disappointing
Dumbly following someone else's linear plot just makes for a dull game. A good game creates situations that the *player* wants to tell stories about. There's a huge difference between a story writer and a game designer. Both are fine art forms, but why do story writers think they can just write a story in game-form and it will become a good game?

Everyone but Oracle demands Java independence
What matters is the JVM. Java the language is stagnant, maybe dead
"there really isn't another enterprise grade language of this caliber around"
There are plenty of much better languages but no runtime with the same combination of performance, management support and a wide variety of libraries.
There may not be a next big JVM language. Scala and Clojure are taking over from Java in some organisations. Java will continue to limp along, becoming more and more unwieldy as it shoehorns language features onto an already awkward base. JRuby. Groovy and other languages will have their niches.
For enterprise software, the language to pick will be the one with best tool support that lets programmers evolve their systems rapidly. And which language that will be basically comes down to JetBrains, unless the Eclipse community can pull something surprising out of their hat. Considering they still haven't got Svn support into the main distribution, I won't hold my breath.
Google drops cash on virtual currency firm Jambool
Did Google ever innovate? Their innovation has always been behind the scenes, not in the services they provide. They created a web search algorithm that was better than that of Alta Vista and Yahoo, and a home page that had one input box and so was better than that of Alta Vista and Yahoo. Then they made a webmail app that was better than that of Hotmail. And bought a company that produced a maps webapp that was better than MapQuest et al. And bought a company that put videos on the net when their own attempt went nowhere. And bought a company that made a spreadsheet webapp that was not as good as DabbleDb. And bought a company that made a wordprocessing webapp that was just plain awful (and therefore familiar to people who used MS Word). And bought a company that made a phone operating system that was better than Symbian (but then were beaten to market by Apple). And then produced Wave which was an innovative combination of chat and a wordprocessing webapp , the main innovation being that it worked in a browser. And Buzz which was a microblogging app that was a knock-off of Twitter and screwed over Gmail users. And now they've bought a company that runs a virtual currency service...

Apple 'stunned' by iProduct demand
It works for De Beers
"The idea that restricting supply somehow increases demand is utter bunk fueled by a complete lack of understanding of economics. Every consumer who walks into an Apple store wanting to buy an iPad and walks out without one is a customer who might go across the street and buy a netbook"
It works for De Beers. People could buy other gems or artificial diamonds, but they don't. And, a more appropriate comparison to Apple, it works for fashion houses.

Microsoft dreams the dream... and lives it
"On your PC noone would ever dream to move all the standard features around"
Apart from Windows Media Player, Windows Office Communicator, Office Ribbon Bar, Internet Explorer, etc. etc.
Not that Microsoft are alone. ITunes, Quicktime Player, Winamp, etc. etc. all ignore the platform's look & feel (feel being more important) and make the Windows experience a case of random button clicking around mystery-meat UIs.
It makes the Linux GNOME desktop look like a paragon of consistency.
Microsoft stealth launches 'historic' programming language
The fact that a language descended from ML is a supported part of VS is great news. Yes, ML code is succint compared to C#, but it is that way because the language doesn't require you to write loads of unnecessary guff to help the compiler writer, you just concentrate on what you want done.

Apple iPad vs netbooks: fight not over yet
I bought a netbook because it's cheap and small
I bought an EeePC 900 because I wanted to write on the tube or in cafe's (and do a bit of programming) and I didn't want to worry too much about the cost if a thief snatched it off me. The larger and more expensive they become, the less useful for that kind of thing. I do miss a touch-screen though because I like to sketch diagrams and what-not with my laptop's stylus.
An iPad is less tempting for using when out and about because it's more expensive, more fragile, and harder to type on.

Maven and Eclipse strive for Visual Studio 'power'
Java already has a VisualStudio beater
it's IntelliJ.
And shouldn't the Maven developers think about fixing the security issues first, before trying to take over the world?
Eclipse will be watching you very closely
Why does Eclipse care a jot about NetBeans? It's JetBrains they should be chasing. If they spent a little more effort on usability and performance, Eclipse might have a chance of being a real alternative to IntelliJ. As it is, it's only useful for people who's time is worth so little that all the time they would save using IntelliJ would cost less than its asking price.
Nokia grabs control of Symbian - then gives it away
No way to compete with Android
"This does remove at a stroke the principle advantage of Google's Android: the code being free."
Whether Android is free or not, its biggest advantage over Symbian is that it is much easier to code to. The Symbian APIs make Windows 3.1 look simple and elegant.
KDE 4.1 beta 1 released
@KenBW2: genie and zoom effects in Compiz prove my point
You missed my first comment. The transitions in Compiz don't take into account how you have configured your desktop. If you put the window selector in the top right corner, as I do, Compiz still animates minimising windows downwards to the bottom of the screen. If one moves the dock around the screen in MacOS, still windows minimise to the true position of the dock icon.
Compiz has copied the feature from MacOS with no attempt to understand how Apple actually designed it and why they designed it like they did, and no attempt to actually provide a useful, usable feature for the user.
@Gerry: I'm a Linux, not OS X, user
I've used Linux as my main desktop for years, so it does matter to me when the desktop experience becomes worse, and Compiz and the wobbly effects definitely make the experience worse, breaking features, showing misleading transitions, etc.
My point was that, unlike in Apple, there's no pressure encouraging OSS programmers to use the graphics power for good and not for evil (or at least, not for showing off).
Shows the difference between Apple and OSS
I hate the wobbly effect!
The genie effect in MacOS X communicates useful information: where the application has been minimised to.
The wobbly effects in Linux desktops convey no useful information at all and sometimes convey misleading information (e.g. minimise to the bottom of the screen when my menu of running apps is at the top). It's completely pointless work that is more about stroking the egos of the graphics programmers than delivering useful features to users.
Bluetooth finally reaches ten (years, not users)
Remote control for presentations
Bluetooth is widely used to control presentation software. The profile is supported by many phones and Windows. It's a good idea: flip between slides without having to keep going back to the laptop to hit the space bar.
Except... if you have a room full of people with Bluetooth phones, the connection freezes. So it appears to work perfectly when you rehearse before the presentation but fails as soon as you stand up and start talking. Sweet!

Apple to announce handheld games console at WWDC?
Very unlikely
Apple go into markets where they have a chance of making a splash with novel new technology. Nintendo already have that role in the games biz and would eat Apple for lunch.
SOA benefits: too much reuse of reuse?
I reuse code all of the time, the difference being...
...that none of the code I reuse was ever written to be "reusable". It was just written, was useful, got used, got found by me and got used again.
Make useful code easy to find. There's your "reuse strategy".
Anything else is just someone trying to sell you something.
10 ways to improve your code
He should actually read what Fred Brooks writes
Saying we should "simplify essential complexity" shows he either hasn't read what Fred Brooks wrote or completely misunderstood it.
The essential complexity is the complexity of the problem domain and, by definition, cannot be simplified.
The accidental complexity can be addressed, but certainly cannot be "killed". Computer programming is never going to be completely straightforward as long as we have to obey the laws of physics and economics.
Time for UML tools to evolve
The tools aren't good enough because the vendors do not know what they are for
UML has no practical purpose.
It cannot be used for real modelling.
If it can be round-tripped it is just another representation of the code but graphical diagrams cannot scale up as well as text and we already have excellent tools for working with code (as the article says).
It could be useful to support informal discussions about designs, except that it's not very good for visualising object-oriented software.
How do you measure the productivity of a modelling tool?
Come on Matt. Don't tease us with throwaway statements like "while they're being left behind in terms of productivity, though, modeling tools are making headway with advanced features...". What does productivity mean for a UML modelling tool?
Number of A4 pages per day? Number of lines drawn between boxes per hour? System features deployed to customers per week? Money made from the system per financial year?
Define your terms.
Ubuntu chief ushers in the age of Intrepid Ibex
Networking is not the biggest problem for laptop users
I've had no problems with networking when using Ubuntu on my laptop. However, X configuration when plugging in monitors is a complete disaster area. The design is completely illogical, so it's no wonder it's unreliable: testing it must have been impossible.
Google beats bugs from Android
Wot Google, no devices?
At least Apple has sold a few phones.
Tools vendors stuck on UML and agility
UML isn't really modelling... so what is it for?
It's interesting that Anonymous Coward brings up the "programming" vs. "software engineering" distinction.
A engineering model is a simplification of a system (aircraft, bridge, office block) that ignores unimportant aspects of the system so that the the engineer can easily and cheaply prove that the system as designed will have certain desired properties (fly, handle expected traffic volumes, not fall over in high winds).
UML cannot be used for creating engineering models. You can't prove interesting runtime characteristics from UML models.
So what is UML good for?
Maybe for visualising ideas on a whiteboard or paper, but it's a piss poor notation for software visualisation.
Maybe as a notation for software blueprints, but if you have enough detail in the diagram to mechanically produce code, you have code and you need all the testing tools as well as refactoring tools, to work with it.

Last year at this time, Tennis were one of the most blogged about artists on the WWW. Their debut album, Cape Dory, didn't quite live up to the hype, but Patrick Riley and Alaina Moore have returned pretty quickly with its follow-up. Produced by Patrick Carney of the Black Keys, Young and Old will be released on February 14th (awwww) via Fat Possum. Before that, they'll be releasing a single on Forest Family called "Origins," which you can now hear below.
Also, check out this interview we did with Tennis earlier in the year.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My daughter started at Lake Shore's kindergarten during the school's temporary relocation and is finishing first grade there in a few weeks. I just can't say enough good things about this school...we had high expectations and it has surpassed all of them. Lake Shore's teachers are team players and are creative. When our daughter showed reading skills well beyond her grade level, they quickly experimented with other ways to challenge her, and did so in ways that were developmentally appropriate. The teachers stay in e-mail contact with parents and send plenty of materials home. We enjoy attending functions at the school because the faculty and staff are all so friendly and fun. To top it all off, Lake Shore's now in a brand-new building. It shines. So do the people who work there, and so do the kids.
Lake Shore has been completely rebuilt and filled with every technology available! It is such a beautiful place for our children to learn. Highly motivated and energetic teachers very involved parent volunteers. Great all around education.
My son is a 4th grader at Lake Shore Elementary and I couldn't be more pleased with all the teachers that he has had. My son has been at this school from K-4 and will be in the new and improved LSE for the next school year. I have never has an issue with any of his teachers or any member of the staff. They are all very sweet and friendly. My son still gets a little red faced when we see a teacher out of the school enviorment like he grocery store or the mall.... I think that is the coolest myself. I never went to a school where the teachers or staff live iin the are of the school. The are many big hearts and wonderful minds at Laker Shore !!!!!
We just moved into the area last year & I was nervous about a new school, but Lake Shore Elementary couldn't have been any better. The staff, principal & teachers are approachable, involved and eager to improve the school in any way. My sons are in Kindergarten & 2nd grade and both have wonderful teachers and excellent reading groups & extracurricular programs offered.
Lake Shore has now schooled 4 generations of my family and we all agree that the environment is second to none. Lake Shore is very unique. Small closed classrooms afford the children the undivided attention and security they require at a young age. Other schools in the area are open classroom or modified open classroom. Parent involvement is so high that as a first grade parent, I was turned to the kindergarten classroom to volunteer because my daughter's grade level was saturated with parent volunteers. Lake Shore also produces an unusually high number of the high achievers at the middle and high school levels.

fourth-quarter guidance,
sheet steel,
bar and structural,
direct-reduced iron,
Samuel Frizell
NEW YORK Nucor Corp. expects its fourth-quarter earnings to be lower than a year earlier due to weaker raw materials and bar and structural performance, as well as several one-time miscellaneous charges, despite a strong sheet steel performance.
Charlotte, N.C.-based Nucor expects to generate fourth-quarter earnings of between 35 and 40 cents per diluted share, down from 46 cents in the third quarter and 43 cents in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The company has seen a decreased performance at its bar and structural mills due mainly to extended planned outages as a result of upgrades at its special bar quality mill in Norfolk, Neb., and its structural mill in Blytheville, Ark., Nucor said Dec. 17 in its fourth-quarter earnings guidance.
The company expects its raw materials segment to see weaker results due to increased start-up costs at the companys St. James Parish, La., direct-reduced iron plant, where a storage dome collapsed in September.
End markets remained mixed, with nonresidential construction only slowly improving, Nucor said. "Thus far in 2013 nonresidential markets continue to lack sustained momentum, but they are slowly improving from historically low levels. The strongest end markets continue to be in manufactured goods, including energy and automotive."
The companys sheet steel performance improved in the second half of this year due to a series of price increases and rising demand. "Sheet steel profitability has continued to improve in spite of the three-week planned outage at our sheet mill in Berkeley County, S.C., to accommodate major equipment upgrades related to our wide and light production expansion," Nucor said.
Several significant write-downs also will contribute to Nucors earnings decline, including a $30-million lifo expense vs. a $71.9-million credit in the fourth quarter of 2012. The company also will post a non-cash charge this quarter of $12 million relating to inventory purchase accounting adjustments after its acquisition of Skyline Steel LLC.

CAMARO's Watchlist for 4/4/14
BCCI - Broke out of similar pattern to NVLX. Looks great for another big up day tomorrow up into resistance around .12-.14c We tweeted out this setup this AM when it started breaking out and then it went on to close out on highs. Watch for prior high break to keep trade alive.
ITNS - Still in this really tight bull flag that should get resolved soon. Needs a move above .02c tomorrow to snap above the flag portion then it should be open for a move to recent highs up at .03c
MPET - Another one we tweeted out earlier today when it broke above the bull flag pattern on the daily chart. It went on to close on highs and looks good for some more momo tomorrow. Looking for some more follow through tomorrow up to 1.80 which is big resistance.
MINE - Bull flagging on the daily chart, & it might not breakout of the flag until next week but its pulling back in the last few days on really light volume which is very bullish. I think it might be good idea for a dip buy tomorrow against the bottom of the flag which is around .025c with the expectation of it returning back to the top of the flag around .035c then perhaps next week it breaks above the flag.
FITX - Wedging / Bull flag on the daily/weekly chart, needs to break out above .09c to get out of the wedge. Wait for the break. should be clear up to new 52w highs.

Second Time Around
Four Couples Who Got Divorced ... Then Remarried Each Other
Celeste Simmons-Bacon and Alan Bacon, Kennesaw, Georgia
In 1997, Celeste Simmons and Alan Bacon got married for the most common of reasons: They were in love. During their first six years of marriage, they had two children together — and Alan had an affair. "He left me for the other woman when our younger child was an infant — and the most devastating thing was finding out that the affair began when I was pregnant," says Celeste. After the divorce, her life bottomed out: She lost her house, moved in with her parents, suffered from depression. Slowly, though, she put things back together and, after a year or so, she was involved with someone else. Meanwhile, Alan's relationship didn't last, and he moved to be nearer to his children. "We talked because of the kids, but also because we both wanted to heal the hurt feelings." It took a couple of years, but soon the pair was talking about trying again, and made a decision to move in together. "It was a mistake right then," says Celeste. "We still hadn't really forgiven each other, and I still didn't trust him." That reconciliation lasted six months. Another half-year later, they tried again — and this time, sought counseling from their minister. In 2005, two years post-divorce, they remarried.
Why it worked the second time around: "We can finally talk about everything without tears or bitterness," says Celeste, adding that she's able to stand on her own two feet. "I'm much smarter now, about money, about what it takes to keep us going, about everything." Marriage education is key, says Bisacre. Even more so than in a first marriage, "go into your second with your eyes wide open." It's also valuable, she says, to find a second-marriage support group. "You can learn from others who've been there, and also be inspired."

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. Grand Junction firefighters learn to fight fire with foam to prepare for a type of fire that calls for more than water.
Thirty firefighters participated in wednesday's live burn session at suncor energy to combat water resistant flames from liquid fuel fires.
These annual foam firefighting training sessions are critical for firefighters now that many Grand Valley drivers use E-85 gasoline that contains water resistant ethanol.
"At Suncor they have a great facility, it's perfectly safe for us to do these operations because it's a real clean burn, but what we're actually going to be able to do is practice these techniques before we actually have to use them on a real incidents," says Derek Trombetta of the Grand Junction Fire Department.
Firefighters practiced direct and roll off techniques foam application techniques that will be used in the field to quickly put out liquid fuel fires.
Although foam is significantly more expensive than water extinguishing methods but the multi-gallon buckets used by the fire department typically last through several fires depending on their size.

The Boston Globe-Horn Book Award judges will be meeting in Boston this weekend to make their decisions. Anyone have any inside dirt? I'll be announcing the winners on Saturday, May 31st at BEA, 1:00PM in the Librarians' Lounge at Javits.
They ARE judging you
(No inside dirt. Just excited to hear about the winners.)
I love hearing about these awards in the middle of the year instead of Midwinter. It's just so cheery to me.
I don't have any favorites at the moment, so I am not invested, just anticipatory.
Wishing the judges all the best. So many books so little time!!
Looking forward to it! I also enjoy a good midyear award. What was the publishing deadline in order to be considered? Starts in June of the previous year?
Once again I get to say that these are my favorite awards!
Sarah, Pam and I had an amazing opportunity to sift through about 700 books for last year's awards. What a terrific experience. Looking forward to a rich slate this year too.
I like this schedule and I like that the announcements are at BEA. A lovely Bing cherry on the sundae of the show. Also, I request Rebecca Stead return as co-host.
I am greatly looking forward to the announcement!

TOKYO (AP) -- Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is heading to Africa, keeping up a busy overseas travel schedule designed to boost Japan's global profile in the face of China's rise.
Abe departed Thursday and will make a brief visit to the Mideast state of Oman before heading to the Ivory Coast, Mozambique and Ethiopia.
He has traveled more widely than his immediate predecessors in a bid to expand Japan's diplomatic reach and help Japanese companies win business overseas.
The unofficial backdrop to his whirlwind travel is China's rise, and the relative decline of a once ascendant Japan during two decades of economic stagnation. Japan is a major aid donor to Africa, but China's investment and trade has powered Africa's economic growth in the past decade.
