Dangerous by Design: Fashion-Inflicted Injuries
High Heelitis
Achieving statuesque status comes with a fair share of risks, as this Washington Post article helpfully/terrifyingly demonstrates. Those to-die-for pumps put added pressure on the joints (especially the knees), throw your body's alignment out of whack, tighten your calf muscles and Achilles tendons, and can result in a slew of unsavory side effects like bunions, hammertoes, Morton's neuroma, joint pain, sprained ankles and a heel-strap-induced "pump bump" called the Haglund's deformity.
And let's not forget that tragic episode of "Sex and the City" in which Kristen Johnson tripped on her stilettos and took a swan dive out the window. Talk about a fashion victim.
Click here to find out about four more fatalistic fashions.

Flip-Flop Foot
Figure sticking to to flip-flops is a safe bet? Nice try. A recent Auburn University study found that flip-flops and other flat shoes can result in muscle and joint pain because they change the way you walk, forcing you to take shorter steps and work more to travel the same distance. The habit of scrunching your toes to hold the sandal in place also leads to aching little piggies, while the lack of support can bring in heel pain. Docs recommend wearing flip-flops in moderation and replacing them as they become broken in.
Handbag Hernia
We always suspected that our toddler-sized totes stuffed with fashion mags, gym clothes, makeup and water bottles could be used as weapons. Unfortunately, it seems we're the ones under attack. Last year The Daily Telegraph noted that the fashion industry's fondness for oversized totes (the average woman's handbag weighs the equivalent of five bags of sugar!) has led to a significant rise in related back injuries due to the added strain. We say, keep the bag, but lose the unnecessary junk inside to lighten your load.
Jogger's Nipple
Yep, this is an actual ailment, presenting as chafed, bleeding, or otherwise irritated nipples that have spent a bit too much time rubbing against the fabric of your shirt at great speeds. To remedy, use a nipple cover or rub Vaseline over your nips.
Bra Boo-Boos
Wearing an ill-fitting, unsupportive bra can lead to its own share of aches and pains, and we swear underwires are designed to be painful, but that's not what led Jessica Lang of Greenville, S.C., to sue Victoria's Secret. Lang's complaint? An allegedly defective bra whose underwire broke and lacerated her chest. Yeeeeooooooooooouch.
Be careful out there, ladies. It's a painful, painful, world.

A kid 11 to 12 years old who is not quite a teenager who we refer to as a "TWEEN" (meaning in between child and teen). They are starting puberty which makes them "WEIRD". Thus they are a TWEIRD!

Excellent quality...this is EXACTLY as represented which is not always the case when ordering online. So pleased I'm about to order another. Would highly recommend!
This is cute for my kitchen breakfast nook, and the quality is good. The back cover is lime green, FYI.
Ok first I have to admit when I got the package I thought to myself..."Wow this is a little pillow". I totally had forgotten that it was a "pillow cover". Nonethless I was still extremely happy. The pillow is a good size - large! The workmanship is beautifully done - overall I would recommend this pillow cover. I know I will enjoy it for many years to come.

Hey guys, I have been running into this problem as well, but on the PC version (2013LT). We are running Win7 Pro on 27" iMac, utilizing the Boot Camp utility. I realize this thread is related to Cad for Mac OS, but @wei503, is there any corralation to the "memory leak" and Boot Camp? Or is this a ACAD for Mac only thing?
Hi, The issue discussed here is a AutoCAD for Mac only thing. You can post your issues about AutoCAD 2013 for WIndows here: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/AutoCAD-2013/bd-p/70
Thanks Wei, I posted a simlar question to the PC forum, but was directed here.
It's unfortuately a grey area b/c we are running AutoCadLT for Windows, but on a Mac. So this should be a Window's question. But due to the Boot Camp utility, I feel it potentially involves both systems.
We have tried numerous fixes, with some limited luck last night, but it is back to being fussy again this morning. I would love to hear from anybody that has run into this issue, or seen fixes that are productive.
Ok my 1 month free trial is over and there is no way I can purchase in its current form.
To recap, I am using a brand new 27" imac and was using a trial of Autocad LT 2013. I had updated to the latest version.
I couldn't isolate the lag which ranged from a short delay to absolutely huge infuriating ones of over a minute or 2 with the spinning circle, to any one particular command and it happened on old drawings and also brand new ones started from scratch with 2013.
If Autodesk can sort this problems out I will give it another go but until then I am not spending £1,200
I will check back here from time to time to see if any progress has been made but until then it is back to using 2000 on my old PC
hi using autocad 2013 on macbook pro running 10.7.5 having the sunning slow problem as reading the forum i noticed u can update with sp1 to address this issue but when i check for up dates its not there is this because im a student using a student copy from the autodesk website ??? i need to fix this problem to carry on with my corse work
I am running out of my patient right now. I have a drawing here with many references. And AutoCAD 2013 Mac get really really slowly. My CPU (1 core?) is running 100% and stocks there. i think this is the problem. Is AutoCAD running on 1 core? On a windows machine the drawing is heavy but fa away not that slow.
Hardware is: 2.3Ghz i7, 16Gb Ram, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB (2012)
Software: 10.8.3, AutoCAD 2013 Mac
Pleasse help me it's driving me crazy.
Hi Carl,
I already made some investigations about AC for Mac slowing down when using Xrefs, you can read about this here, in this topic. Pay special attention to posts from #21:
to #28:
Could it be so, that in there are some proxy objects (objects, created with some third-parity applications, that runs inside AutoCAD) as you wrote that external references come from PC side?
If so, that could be the main reason for slowing down AC for Mac with such files.

Vince Vaughn's lovability gets pushed to the limit in 'Delivery Man' ★★
It's too much to call the misty-eyed sentimental comedy "Delivery Man" Vince Vaughn's very own "Patch Adams," but the film does require Vaughn's character to smile through tears, over and over, in an attempt to yank your own heartstrings straight out of your heart. The movie's goal is a simple one: to leave moviegoers all over the world without functioning hearts, just like that poor schnook in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom."

MCN has the world exclusive images of the new Lotus superbike in this week's issue of the paper along with details of the project and how running prototypes are already out testing.We have exclusive high resolution images of the new Lotus C-01 superbike as well as exclusive information from those close to the project revealing more details about the 200bhp V-twin.The C-01 is the first bike to come from a new set-up using the Lotus name under licence. Lotus announced it was moving into the world of motorcycles in June last year and at the time it promised a 200bhp bike would be on sale in late 2013 or early 2014 but no images of the bike have been seen so far.MCN managed to get hold of two images from a source close to the project. That source, who didn't want to be named, was able to hint at a few details of the bike which certainly looks very different to anything else currently on the market. These computer generated images have come directly from the Lotus factory and are not the work of MCN.You can read the full story in MCN on sale now. It can be downloaded through the Apple Newstand and Google Play store in electronic form too.

This appears to have been designed by a dribble who likes cafe racers to much .... cafe racers being modified bikes personalised for weekend use producing one in this form is plain silly Given lotus make wicked lightweight cars that have their own race and track classes why not take some of the tech and use it in this ( other than the cf and engine tuning) they could quite easily have put adjustable wheel base and rake angle into this giving the user options for applications from drift and drag to high speed cornering capability's. It's a good job I'm not overseeing any designs in a paid fashion cos I would make the designers do lands end to John o groats and back without fender's or fairing then see what they thought !!

Very welcome. Both Lotus entering the bike market and something that looks a bit different. Currently all the superbikes look virtually the same with different logos on the tank.

Lotus making their own Engines
Now that's a new Concept.........most of their cars have developments of ,or are engines supplied by other Manufacturers.........so using a KTM engine isn't that unusual........ however what.s really disapointing are the Bike's looks...............Ugly...unlike virtually every Car they have ever built.

A police car was involved in an accident on the North Side early Friday that left two officers and another person in serious condition.
A squad car was rear-ended about 1:40 a.m. in the 2500 block of West Addison Street, according to police News Affairs Officer Amina Greer.
Two police officers were taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, and the driver of the other vehicle were taken to Swedish Covenant Hospital in Chicago, Greer said.
All victims were in serious condition, according to Fire Media Affairs.
The driver was in custody but no charges or citations have been issued early Friday.

|Great climb. It has two overhanging sections (basically two quick boulder problems) and the rest is easy. I placed a #0.5 BD cam before the 1st bolt, and a #1 after the 2nd bolt. The roofs are straightforward, especially if you've already climbed it, so you can warm up on this before climbing the excellent Leading Should Feel This Way.

Bacon-Wrapped Cheese-Stuffed Dates
Each bite of these simple baked appetizers is an explosion of tastes and textures. You'll get crunchy almonds, soft dates, salty bacon, creamy blue cheese and sweet honey.
32 Servings
Prep: 25 min. Bake: 10 min.
16 center-cut bacon strips
32 pitted dates
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
32 blanched almonds
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
Cut bacon strips in half widthwise. In a large skillet, cook bacon
over medium heat until partially cooked but not crisp. Remove to
paper towels to drain; keep warm.
Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of each date, being careful not
to cut through completely. Fill each with 1/2 teaspoon cheese and 1
almond. Wrap with 1 piece bacon; secure with a toothpick.
Place in foil-lined 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans. Brush tops
with honey. Bake at 375° for 9-11 minutes or until bacon is

Chris Thile and siblings Sean and Sara Watkins, collectively known as Nickel Creek, have been widely embraced by the bluegrass and acoustic-music communities, even though their music makes a habit of stretching or ignoring genre boundaries. How have they gotten away with such apostasy? "Talent" is probably too facile an answer, but it's the best one available. On Why Should the Fire Die?, their latest release on Sugar Hill Records, the Creekers work with producers Eric Valentine and Tony Berg, whose rock credentials result in a bigger-than-usual sound on tracks such as the darkly evocative "When in Rome," "Best of Luck," with a lead vocal by Sara that's tougher than anything she's recorded to date, and "Helena," which (gasp!) actually uses drums. Under typical circumstances, purists would be up in arms over this type of eclecticism, but the quality of the tunes helps blunt the argument that Nickel Creek should limit itself in any way. Thile and the Watkinses, presently traveling with Andrew Bird, get away with breaking plenty of musical rules. May they continue to be rewarded for their misbehavior.

Charleston Appetizer Crawl
When you're planning to spend a weekend in Charleston, a destination on the fast track to becoming the new culinary mecca of the South, you'll realize that there just aren't enough meals on the docket -- let alone room in your stomach -- to sample every delectable dish that the destination has to offer. That's when its time to plan an appetizer crawl: a progressive tasting that allows time-sensitive foodies to experience the atmosphere and flavors of several different dining establishments, rather than eating a multi-course meal at just one.
To get in on the trend, simply make reservations for your group at a few notable locales, order selections exclusively off the appetizer or bar menu, then dish about your favorite plates before moving on to the next stop.
After my travel companions and I embarked on our own culinary journey to 6 Charleston restaurants, we developed some informal guidelines that can help you better plan your own crawl. Follow (or ignore) these tenets at your discretion -- but don't miss the "Holy City" hotspots that made our final Charleston culinary cut.
How to Plan a Successful Appetizer Crawl
1. Get the local perspective. Before scheduling your crawl, get residents, friends in the know or your hotel concierge to share their recommendations for Charleston's top tastes and small plates.
2. Arrive at the first destination as early as possible. You want to get through at least half of your crawl before restaurants get busy for the night (if you can get there by 4 p.m., all the better).
3. Order one fewer appetizer than the total number of people in your party. And pair your selections with one signature beer or cocktail apiece. Consume more than that at each stop, and you'll have a tough time finishing your crawl before you're too stuffed -- or tipsy.
4. Make reservations. Do this at each eatery around 90 minutes apart. That should give you an hour to snack and sip before you need to take off for the next restaurant.
5. Give your server the heads up. Let him know that you're on a crawl. Not only is it good form to let them know that you're not ordering an entire meal, but he or she can clue you into the best items on their bar or appetizer menu. Don't forget: Tip generously.
Now that you know the rules, it's time to start the appetizer crawl.
Check out the best places for small bites in Charleston:
McCrady'sCharleston's culinary reawakening may well have begun -- with all the subtlety of a starting pistol -- when a young Johnson & Wales-trained chef named Sean Brock took over the helm of McCrady's. Within the kitchen of Charleston's oldest restaurant (which once played host to then-president George Washington), he almost single-handedly reinvented traditional Southern cooking by tapping into a veritable arsenal of postmodern gastronomy techniques and using nearly forgotten local ingredients like heritage grains and heirloom greens (grown on farms nearby, including his own). The result is Southern fare like you never knew it could be: delicate, finely focused and exquisitely elevated. Even the well-priced snacks that our group chose from an ever-rotating selection posted on a chalkboard above the bar -- pumpkin pork roulettes, pillowy-soft tempura-battered grouper fritters and succulent General Tso's sweetbreads -- were 4-bite celebrations of what the Charleston region has to offer.
Hank's SeafoodFrom our vantage point at the raw bar at Hank's -- not an official seating area but the only place our foursome could find to perch on a busy Saturday -- it became clear why people clamor to get into this 1940s-style fish house (a throwback to the era of white-linen tablecloths and penguin-suited waiters). The entire place is a full-on shrine to seafood, one expressly devoted to purist classics like platters of shucked oysters still dripping in their native seawater, rock shrimp sizzling alongside crispy calamari, local clams simmered in white wine, and deep red slabs of tuna cubed and served tartare. Of course, that's just the beginning of what chef Frank McMahon can orchestrate for those obsessed with the freshest catch (we're determined to return for the Shrimp in Charleston Curry Sauce, Shellfish Pasta and the Low Country Bouillabaisse). Be sure to get here before this former warehouse gets packed to the rafters with other ravenous guests -- or be prepared to stand.
FIGWhile "locally sourced" has been an industry buzz-term for several years, few chefs have taken it more literally -- or approached it with as much creative gusto -- as those in Charleston. James Beard award winner Mike Lata, executive chef at the popular downtown eatery FIG (aka "Food is Good"), leverages his relationships with local growers and food purveyors to source ingredients at the very peak of their season, and transform them (with minimal tampering) into the simple, flavor-rich dishes that grace his table nightly. While seated at a round table near the bar (prime real estate for groups), we tried Escabeche of Amberjack, Painted Hills Carne Cruda and Keegan-Filion Farms Chicken Liver Pate. But the clear winner was the Ricotta Gnocchi with Lamb Bolognese, which had us sopping up every last, slightly spicy, morsel with bread once the lighter-than-air gnocchi had been devoured.
Amen Street Fish & Raw BarLong before the thoroughfare outside was dubbed Cumberland, it was called Amen -- literally the word heard on the street thanks to its proximity to the prayerful congregations of St. Philip's Church and the Methodist Meeting House. That's just one of the long-forgotten facts rediscovered when restaurateur partners Richard Stoney and Keith Jones renovated and refinished the historic space that now houses this neighborhood seafood spot. We were particularly fond of the extra-long wrap around bar, which offers plenty of space to belly up and order house favorites like Shrimp Corn Dogs with Carolina Mustard, Fried Green Tomatoes and Gulf Oysters on the half shell. We're still fantasizing about the Jumbo Calamari Rings served with corn, tomato, bacon, green onion (and drizzled with lemon aioli) that were so deliciously tender, they sliced into bites at the merest hint of pressure from a knife.
Closed for BusinessWhile it's probably far better known for its extensive beer selection, including 42 seasonal small-batch brews on draft (available in flights or by the glass), this highly atmospheric gastropub serves up some mean, must-try, down-home grub to pair with your pint. One of the cult favorites, crispy, tempura battered green beans served with a ramekin of ranch, was a table-wide hit. From there, we moved on to sample the french fries smothered in gravy, cheddar cheese and red onion. Blame it on the beer (a dark Westbrook Mexican Cake from South Carolina, in my case) but we broke appetizer crawl guidelines and ordered dessert.
HuskEven before chef phenom Sean Brock opened his second restaurant in a pair of gorgeously restored 19th-century buildings, locals and restaurant critics alike were clamoring to try his latest take on Lowcountry cuisine. Unlike at McCrady's, where Brock pushes the outer margins of what Southern could be, Husk draws the cuisine back to its earliest roots with rustic-style offerings made from the bounty of the local larder -- and nowhere else. He's famously said, "If it's not from the South, it's not coming in the door," and has banished out-of-state staples like extra virgin olive oil. Brock changes the menu not once, but twice daily, and woos diners with instant classics like Sassafras Glazed Pork Ribs with Pickled Peaches, House Cured Country Ham with Acorn Griddle Cakes and Rabbit-Pimento Loaf with Husk Mustard, Pickles and Rice Bread. The standout appetizer from our crawl: Kentuckyaki Pig Ear Lettuce Wraps with Pickled Cabbage and Cilantro, a crispy, addictive instant classic.

All of you who posted websites, thank you very much. I'm especially interested in GeoGarage. I think that will do nicely for my purposes.
Regarding that boat I like, I think you have all convinced me that trucking it over land is the right solution. My broker estimates that it would cost less than $3k, but that isn't an official quote from a trucking company. I'm still looking at other boats, and I am trying to look locally, but I looked at one locally that I really liked but it wasn't in great condition, so I found this other one that is the same brand/design but further away and appears to be in excellent condition... I need to go look at it in person eventually though.

Health Insurance is an essential insurance coverage in which the Insurance Company pays for the medical expenses of the insured person if the said person becomes sick or gets injured in any accident. It offers a protection cover for you and your family for any disease or injury-related emergencies like hospitalization, surgical expenses, medical expenses, etc. Health insurance policy is for individuals as well as groups.
For self and family covering dependent children and parents for Fixed Sum Insured for each such insured person individually to be specified at the inception of the policy and at every renewal inception thereafter. It is the most common Health (Mediclaim) Insurance policy. At present there are various variants available on the market.
This is the most popular Health Insurance Policy to the market where there is no individual Sum Insured specified. A family wise Sum Insured is set in the Policy at the inception or at the renewal stage; it is available for all members of a family named in the Policy. The reason for this Policy's popularity lies in the logic that it is very unlikely that all Insured members of a family get hospitalized in a Policy Year due to illness/accident.
Critical illness insurance or critical illness cover is an insurance product, where the insurer is contracted to typically make a lump sum cash payment if the policyholder is diagnosed with one of the critical illnesses listed in the insurance policy. The policy may require the policyholder to survive a minimum number of days (the survival period) from when the illness was first diagnosed. The survival period used varies from company to company, however, 14 days is the most typical survival period used. These critical illness insurance policies pay healthcare providers directly for the treatment costs of critical and life-threatening illnesses covered by the policyholder's insurance policy, including the fee of specialists and procedures at a select group of high-ranking hospitals up to a certain amount per episode of treatment as set out in the policy. In India, presently, the undernoted critical illnesses are covered for the persons in the age group of 20-65 years:
For any specified Group Members like Employees, Club members, Credit Card holders, Organization/Society members, Residents of any Housing Complex etc. Where the group can be identifiable, such Group Health Insurance Policies are available.
(i) The universal health insurance policy will be available to either individuals or groups.
(ii) Each Insurance plan should cover all eligible members (insured persons) under one group policy only. In other words different categories of eligible members shall not be allowed to be covered under different group policies. It is not permissible to issue an insurance policy to an unnamed group.
(iii) The Individual Policy will be issued in the name of the earning head of family with details of insured family members. The Group policy will be issued in the name of the Group/Association/Institution (called insured) with a schedule of names of the members including his/her eligible family members(called Insured persons) forming part of the policy.
The Sum Insured for each individual/family is pre-fixed at Rs.30,000/- with Personal Accident coverage for the earning member of the family for Rs.25,000/-.
It is comparatively new policy in the market, mainly offered by specialized Health Insurance Company for senior citizens aged from 61 to 69 years with lifelong renewability.
Health (Mediclaim) Insurance premium paid for self, spouse, dependent children and dependent parents paid otherwise than by cash is exempt u/s 80D of the Income Tax Act and the current limit is Rs.15,000/- p.a. for other than senior citizen tax payers and Rs.20,000/- p.a. for senior citizen tax payers.
With so many technicalities of health insurance policies, it is quite difficult to select the most appropriate health insurance policy, satisfying all your needs and at the same time at the most competitive price. Here comes GIBL With our technical expertise and updated knowledge of market developments, we will do the shopping on your behalf for the best suitable health insurance policy available in the market at the most economic price.

WASHINGTON — An official says the D.C. package that ignited at a postal facility was addressed to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.
The department official spoke Friday on condition of anonymity because it was an ongoing investigation.
The package at the D.C. facility ignited a day after fiery packages were sent to Maryland's governor and transportation secretary burned the fingers of workers who opened them.
Initial information indicates all of the parcels are similar. The Washington postal facility was evacuated and no injuries were reported.
The Maryland packages contained a note railing against highway signs urging motorists to report suspicious activity.

Breezing Forms made it very easy for me to set up the base set of options and then replicate and adjust them to each of the sets of parameters I needed, so the form was complete much faster than I expected.
The included stylesheets are also neat and professional looking, so I saved time from having to customize the look & feel.
All in all, this is a great component. I'm working on doing an Authorize.net integration script for it as well - with that, BF will give me everything my clients want.

Berkeley to look at residential permit parking citywide
The Berkeley City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to study whether permit parking might be needed in more residential neighborhoods throughout the city, and whether the cost to buy those permits should increase.
To be included, residents would have to opt in to the program by garnering the support of at least 51% of homes per block face. In addition, a parking survey would need to show that at least 75% of available street parking is occupied at mid-morning and mid-afternoon. Council will set the boundaries but it is residents themselves who will determine which blocks will participate.
Parking in West Berkeley, particularly around Fourth Street and the city Corporation Yard on Allston Way, has been an area of concern for officials, as are blocks near Sacramento Street where many city staff reportedly park.
The city hopes to learn — via a new environmental study — where it might make the most sense to expand the permit parking program. Berkeley currently has 14 permit (RPP) zones in central Berkeley, most of which are near commercial areas. Via the staff report, "The existing RPP zones are bounded roughly on the north by Rose, Hopkins and Eunice Streets; on the east by UC Berkeley; on the south by Woolsey and part of 62nd Street; and on the west by Sacramento and Chestnut Streets."

New drought rules would see Berkeley reduce its water use
This week the state Water Resources Control Board will consider emergency restrictions on water use that would require the city of Berkeley to impose fines for certain types of outdoor water use.
If approved, the Water Board's drought measures would require Berkeley to levy fines of up to $500 for excessive water use while cleaning sidewalks, watering plants, cleaning cars, or operating outdoor fountains.
This will be good news to some Berkeley residents, who have noticed some businesses using large amounts of water around town. Isabelle Gaston, president of the Northeast Berkeley Association, emailed Councilman Jesse Arreguín recently about the Downtown Berkeley Association's use of power-washers to clean the sidewalks in the downtown neighborhood.
"One can see in the photos the large pools of water accumulating on the sidewalks," wrote Gaston in her email. "I would think a good sweeping would be sufficient given the severity of our water shortage."
Berkeley Spark 2.0: Art, innovation and a kinetic bear
On Saturday July 19, Berkeley's Civic Center Park will be filled with artists, idea makers, entrepreneurs and techies from around the Bay Area for the second annual Berkeley Spark, a festival of creative and technological splendor.
From 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., these innovators will host an array of activities and share their ideas with the public. At the event's "tech corridor," representatives from All Power Labs will showcase their biomass-fueled power generators. ArtIsMobilUs, Frankentrikes and Infinity Boxes will be there too. Attendees can also participate in a letter-writing project by Letters to the Universe, or share their work at a hip-hop open mic.
For the foodies, organizers are bringing in Drake's Brewing Co., Dan Cook of The Mead Kitchen, Amy Murray from Revival Bar + Kitchen and Tamales Acapulco to share their specialty drinks and food dishes. … Continue reading »
Berkeley BART plaza plans 'not a bad first start'
More than 100 people attended an open house Monday to assess the latest proposal for significant updates to the downtown Berkeley BART plaza.
A light-filled rotunda, more trees and open space, new bus shelters and an opened-up pedestrian area were among the suggestions presented in the 35%, preliminary, design plans on display at the Brower Center on Monday afternoon.
BART has proposed removing the brick planters and benches and replacing much of the brick with concrete and permeable pavement. That would increase pedestrian space by 3,500 square feet.
The $11.2 million project could come before council in the next few months, with plans for construction from September 2015 to February 2017. … Continue reading »

See plans Tuesday for new downtown Berkeley hotel
A 16-story high-rise hotel under consideration in downtown Berkeley is making its way through the city approval process, with three preview meetings already completed before city panels related to development decisions. No votes have yet been taken, but are expected in the coming months.
The hotel, proposed by Jim Didion and Center Street Partners LLC, would replace the 1970s-era one-story Bank of America building and parking lot at Shattuck Avenue and Center Street. If approved, the project would transform one of the most visible corners in downtown Berkeley.
An open house about the project is scheduled for Tuesday, April 15, from 5-7 p.m. at the Marsh Theater, 2120 Allston Way. … Continue reading »
Berkeley's long-shuttered UC Theatre to get new life
For the last seven years David Mayeri has had a dream: to refurbish the old UC Theatre on University Avenue, which has been closed since 2001, and re-open it as a state-of-the art concert venue.
Mayeri, the former chief operating officer of BGP, the successful concert company started by Bill Graham, has come tantalizingly close over the years to pulling off the project. He got city approval to refurbish the 1,400-seat landmarked theater in 2009 and seed money from the now deceased millionaire music lover Warren Hellman. … Continue reading »
Council to consider higher rates, evening hours for some Berkeley parking meters
New metered parking rates and time limits, in effect in Berkeley since last fall in three of the city's busiest commercial areas, have made it easier for many visitors to find daytime parking, according to new data released by city staff this week. But more changes are needed to meet the city's goal of freeing up 1-2 spaces per block.
Proposed changes include slightly higher hourly rates in some areas, and a new pilot program to extend metered hours until 8 p.m. The Berkeley City Council would have to sign off on any new changes at a meeting currently scheduled for late April. … Continue reading »
Berkeley to celebrate Valentine's Day with mass wedding
Forget a mere box of chocolates or a bouquet of red roses or a pretty pink heart. The Downtown Berkeley Association has much bigger plans for Valentine's Day.
To celebrate love, and the first Valentine's Day since the repeal of Defense of Marriage Act and the overturn of Proposition 8, Berkeley will be holding a mass outdoor wedding for gay, straight and other couples on Friday. Everyone who decides to say "I Do," at the 5:00 p.m. celebration near Berkeley BART also gets the chance to win an instant mini-honeymoon in downtown Berkeley.
"What better way to celebrate the first Valentine's Day since the repeal of DOMA and Prop 8 than a mass wedding for all?" said John Caner, the CEO of the Downtown Berkeley Association. "Our merchants were thrilled to donate mini honeymoon packages for three lucky couples." … Continue reading »

A new project underway to improve the BART plaza in downtown Berkeley is gaining steam, with a public workshop scheduled for Monday afternoon.

Members of the public will have a chance to review the project goals and timeline, meet the design team and share opinions about design sustainability, transit infrastructure, bike and pedestrian amenities, and downtown commerce and arts. … Continue reading »

'Explosive' downtown Berkeley housing boom under way
More than 1,400 housing units are currently in development in downtown Berkeley, with demolition on one of the first in the pipeline scheduled to begin this week.
There are eight projects, including a hotel, planned in the downtown core, with two more planned just south, on Dwight Way, and another proposal on University Avenue just west of downtown that's set to have its first public city review next week.
Demolition for The Durant, which has frontage on both Durant Avenue and Channing Way, was slated to begin Monday, Jan. 13, according to Downtown Berkeley Association CEO John Caner.
Caner said the project is expected to break ground for construction several weeks after that.
According to Downtown Berkeley Association calculations, the new projects will bring at least 1,414 new units and more than 88,000 square feet of new retail space to the downtown area. Not included in those calculations is the project just beginning city review, The Overture, which would bring an additional 44 units and 4,151 square feet of retail and restaurant space to the city's core. … Continue reading »

12 ways hardware makers screw up a perfectly good Windows PC
Summary: Making PCs is a tough business, with low profit margins and cutthroat competition. To squeeze a few extra bucks out of every PC they sell, some OEMs cut deals to preinstall trial versions of software. On top of that, some OEMs feel compelled to "add value" to their hardware by bundling software programs and utilities that duplicate functions already available in Windows. This gallery documents the frustration I found after unboxing three new consumer notebooks.
9 of 13Image
How many desktop icons is too many? Personally, I think the correct answer is "anything more than one," but someone in the business development group at Samsung obviously disagrees with me.
This startup screen could be Exhibit A in the case against crapware. There are 17 icons on the desktop, and they cover the full range of needless junk: unnecessary utilities, trialware, a user guide, and a feedback form. Hey, I've got some feedback right here...
The signature feature of Windows 7 is its redesigned taskbar, which allows you to pin programs and files so you can have quick access to them any time you want.
So, naturally, someone at Sony decided that the perfect complement to the taskbar on the bottom of the screen is a separate dock/toolbar at the top of the screen. It's installed and enabled by default, ready to appear as soon as you accidentally bump the mouse pointer against the top of the screen. And some of the icons are actually folders that spawn secondary toolbars!
On the plus side, none of those icons are on the desktop...
This screenshot documents what I saw shortly after I opened Internet Explorer on a freshly set up HP notebook. It's just so full of fail that it's hard to know where to begin.
There's the HP-branded Bing toolbar, with a search box and a Facebook icon. And then, right below it, there's another toolbar, from Ask.com, with its own search box and its own Facebook button. The Favorites bar has HP and Amazon shortcuts, both of which are duplicated in other toolbars. And the home page is an HP store just filled with offers to sell me software.
Is it any wonder that Internet Explorer just threw up its hands and decided to stop working?

BOYD COUNTY, Ky. (WSAZ) -- Crooks are taking over cell phone accounts, upgrading to new phones and leaving people with "no service".
A woman from Boyd County found that out the hard way earlier this week.
She said it's a frightening situation and one that could cost you thousands if you don't pay attention.
"Just wondered what was going on, how did it happen, just getting really frustrated," said Lynn Stambough.
Stambough has a new sense of awareness after her AT&T Wireless account was compromised.
A text message tipped her off that a man got her information, added his name to her account and upgraded all her lines with three, brand-new, $850 iPhones.
Then she received several e-mails.
"It says "thank you for your purchase here at the Summit Retail Store, I enjoyed helping you"," she said.
The Summit Retail Store is 188 miles west of Stambough's home, in Louisville, Kentucky.
She said the crook bought the phones there.
"Should you have any questions about your service plan, features or simply how to use your equipment, please don't hesitate to call," Stambough said, reading from the e-mail.
She said she picked up her three phones immediately, to find they had no service.
Stambough had to borrow a neighbor's phone to call AT&T's fraud department.
"Made me feel kind of unsafe, you know," she said.
AT&T store workers said the problem has grown recently.
Stambough had to replace SIM cards in her phones to fix them. That day, she was told she was the sixth person with that problem.
"I just don't want it to happen to somebody else," Stambough told WSAZ.com.
She said this experience taught her a lesson.
"If you get a text saying something's changed on your phone, check it out really really quick."
She didn't have to pay for the new phones or the service because AT&T cancelled it.
AT&T hasn't said what will happen to the man who got the phones.
Stambough had some tips for others, including reporting fraud alerts to the major credit agencies, adding more difficult passwords to your accounts and adding a security code to your phone account.
