WTS: BRAND NEW Fujifilm XF1 Camera + Freebies
Ad Details
Hi guys
I have a totally brand new Fujifilm XF1 advance compact camera that I received as a gift only yesterday. Only took it out to test that it is working fine, and it comes with an unfilled warranty card. All labels and stickers on the camera are intact.
This is an extremely well reviewed camera that has a larger image sensor, and a F1.8 lens wide open.
Reason for selling: I already own a DSLR so I do not need another camera.
I will also be throwing in an entire list of accessories together with this so that you do not need to purchase anything additional. All of them are brand new and unopened:
1. Original Fujifilm thick leather case
2. Sandisk 8GB Memory card
3. Yashica lens cleaning kit
4. Nikon Memory card reader
I am selling it at $350. Those of you who are familiar with this camera will know that it is sold for a much higher price at the shops even after discount.
Please contact me directly at eight-one-9-8-two-2-1-4.

Samsung Makes Plans to Launch Google Phone in Q2
According to a report by Korea's ETNews, Samsung is set to release its first Google Android-enabled phone for North America by the second quarter of 2009. The company is currently in the development process for the phone. To meet its goals, Samsung has added 30 experts in Linux and Java to the task force team of its information and communications division, bringing the team to a total of 80 developers. The article quotes an official from Samsung as saying that the company is accelerating development for the phone in order to meet carriers' demands.
The phone will be available on Sprint Nextel's and T-Mobile's networks. If you'll recall, Sprint's CEO Dan Hesse made a comment back in October and said Android (in its current form) is not "good enough to put the Sprint brand on it." If the report from Korea's ETNews is true, then it appears that Android has made enough progress to garner Sprint's favorable attention. Given some of the carrier's recent struggles, it's good the company is focusing on quality and on launching new products to stay competitive.
We haven't seen official photos of the phone, but Samsung is expected to use a full touch screen form factor similar to that of the Omnia or Instinct. The Google phone will include the Google Map based location information service, messenger G-Talk, the G-mail application, and Google Search.
This news is important for all phone manufacturers and carriers, as the wireless industry is watching this new platform, trying to determine how and when it will really take off. We're excited about this open-source platform, and are hopeful that Samsung's announcement will light a fire underneath other manufacturers and carriers to start offering additional Android phones. After all, we're all for new products and new ideas, especially when they make our lives easier or bring us a good product for a reasonable price.
Can't wait to see a Google Phone here in NZ.
One part of me says Sweet more Android phones. The other says Samsung doesn't have 30 linux experts already?
I thought the man who invented and developed the first G1 has developed the G2 now and it is better than the G1. From what I'm thinking they said he has a rather small company and it is all run virtually. Everything is super efficient equaling 30 days design and development!
Yup I was right http://www.phones-online.org/phones/smartphone/smartphone-news/new-google-g2-gps-cell-phone-preview.html this is just a general link not the article I had read talking about the company and everything. This (the G2 looks more like a blackberry than an Iphone.

Fruit crop diseases are starting to appear! With all of the wet weather lately, I am actually surprised that it hasn't gotten worse than it already is. Apples are showing signs of frogeye and apple scab. These area early diseases of apples and relatives such as crabapple. If you have frogeye the leaves will have a small brown spot with a lighter tan colored interior. Apple scab will have darker less symmetrical lesions without a lighter tan interior.

Savanna will graduate in May of 2015 and plans to pursue a Ph.D. in clinical neuropsychology.
DUYEN TRANG, Psychology, minor in Statistics
IMSD Mentor: May Yeh, Ph.D.
Duyen joined the IMSD Program in June 2013 as a Psychology major with a minor in Statistics. She is currently conducting research at the Child and Adolescent Services Research Center (CASRC) under the mentorship of Dr. May Yeh. The laboratory focuses on examining cognitive match, or agreement, between therapists and clients in psychotherapy. Duyen's project investigates the relationship between cognitive match and contributing factors (e.g. parent-therapist ethnic match, parent-therapist acculturation match, and acculturation level of parent) that may increase therapeutic alliance between therapists and parents of youths receiving outpatient mental health services. The purpose of this study is to identify and understand factors of cognitive match that may help to increase youths' therapy attendance, progress, and possibly even outcomes. As a former Biomedical Exploratory Program (BEP) Scholar and a current IMSD Scholar, Duyen aspires to pursue a Ph.D. degree in Clinical Psychology to learn more about children's mental health with an emphasis on cultural issues. Her eventual goal is to join academia as a university professor. Duyen will apply to graduate programs in Fall 2014 and earn her B.A. in Psychology in Spring 2015.

AJ Ashe isn't your typical seventeen-year-old vampire—as if there is such a thing! She's stuck in the middle of a huge fight between her two BFFs. Her ex-boyfriend—whom she's still totally in love with, by the way—is now her stepbrother. A former classmate—who, um, she may or may not have turned into a vampire—is stalking her. And now, apparently, the fate of humankind lies in her little undead hands. What ever happened to the good old days, when all a vampire girl had to worry about was the occasional zit and hiding her taste for blood?

Emacs was always a one-stop shop for me. If I could do it in Emacs, I did. Email. Web browsing. Twitter. Listening to music. Games. Shells and terminals. Even Google Maps. Of course, I did coding and actual text editing as well.
Well, a while back a gave ol' vim a shot. I like it. Quite a bit, actually. It is my second preferred editor, and I even use evil-mode in Emacs now. I learned a lot during my time with vim, and I have been applying lessons learned to my other work flows. It has created a dichotomy in me that I've been struggling back and forth with for a while now.
Vi(m)'s big motive, so to speak, is to do one thing and do it well. It accomplishes this. It's fast and efficient. Editing in Vim is fast and efficient. This is largely why I have adopted evil-mode. However, I found myself asking "where is X?", where X could be terminals, web browsers, etc. These things simply don't exist in Vim (and, really, rightfully shouldn't). Those things aren't part of the One Thing it does well. That forced me to outsource these things to other programs. Programs I already used, mind you. This was, as crazy as it seems, a revelation. If I'm going to have a terminal, a web browser, etc. open anyway, I may as well make use of them.
So, here I am, years into my Emacs experience, finding myself with, once again, a new look on all things Emacs. Emacs is a hell of a text editor. It does lots of other things as well, some of which it does extremely well. However, not everything needs to be done, or should be done, in Emacs. It hurts me just a little to say that, but I'm increasingly believing that to be true. Heresy, thy name is me.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention another potential factor in this recent change of mind and heart. I'm slowly (but not that slowly) severing ties with the Google Machine. In doing so, I've become aware of just how tied in I was. It was eye opening and scary. Having all your eggs in one basket, so to speak, has its benefits, but also can basically be a self-imposed lock down.
As I was untangling myself from this web (heh... get it?), I began recognizing other similar situations I was in. Emacs was at the forefront. Being so tied in to Emacs, when it crashed (which, to be fair, is rare), an update went badly, or anything else prevented Emacs from working appropriately, it was detrimental. Spreading tasks to the appropriate separate handlers is important. This is the same reason why micro-frameworks have become a huge deal, especially in the PHP world. It's piecing together your own solutions with several parts that each do one thing and do it well.
The end result of all this is I'm going to use Emacs for what it's good for: development and text editing. This includes things like running terminals for tests or other things, using version control (seriously, magit is the shit [technical term]), and other development and text editing related things. Other tasks will be delegated elsewhere, including 2048.
If you go through the history of Emacs posts on this blog, you'll see that I've flip-flopped on several topics and not kept up with various changes I've made (cough org-mode cough). This may very well fall into that category as well, and I may find myself back to doing as much in Emacs as possible. For now, though, I'll be spreading my work across multiple applications.
Side notes:
You'll notice the title of this article says "possible". That's largely due to what I said in the last paragraph.
Also, as far as getting myself away from the Google Machine, to be fair, I've basically just jumped ship to Apple (for most, but not all, things). This may sound hypocritical, but a.) as I'm basically all Apple hardware these days anyway, it at least makes more sense than being tied into Google, and b.) Apple is now at least on par with Google as far as the EFF is concerned. I'm not a complete hypocrite, though, as I've been looking at what Apple services I can move to other providers, so I'm at least trying to apply this same separation of services thought to my Apple tie-ins as well.]]>

Now there's one less reason to leave Emacs for PHP developers.]]>
emacs-setup came about when during a time when I became very fond of Emacs making things really easy to do, or flat out doing things for me. As I was adding/removing packages, and changing my .emacs file in general, I thought to myself "certainly, there's a more interactive way to do this." As I found, there wasn't. Not in the capacity I was looking for, anyway.
So, I began writing some basic functions, the base of what would become emacs-setup. I have since been using the package for over a year.
What does any of this have to do with anything? Well, put simply, I just realized that it has been over a year since I started using emacs-setup. This was a shocking realization, for a couple of reasons.
First, I realized that I had written software that was usable and had become such a part of my Emacs usage that I almost forgot about it and began to take advantage of it. As a developer, knowing that I've written software that's "good" (for lack of a better term or metric) is an extremely positive feeling. I often struggle with my own developer skills, worrying that I'm not "good enough" at times. Realizing that software I wrote has been up and running for a year or more was a huge boost, even though (most likely) I'm one of a very few people using it or who even knows it exists. Which brings me to my second point.
I have always, er, obsessed over making software for people, and by "people" I mean "other people". I think that's wrong. I should be obsessed over writing good, useful software. If others find and use it, all the better. If not, then I still wrote some awesome software that I can personally use. The inherent realization here is that writing software shouldn't be about fame and not completely about money (paying bills is one thing, being Bill Gates is a bit much). As a programmer, I should enjoy programming, which I do, but I should not let the fact that no one will ever see a program I wrote, or even know it exists, deter my enjoyment or pursuit of programming.
Ok, ok. Enough with all the philosophy. I've explained how my Emacs setup has changed me and taught me some life lessons about what I love to do. However, what about the second part of this article's title?
Simply put, emacs-setup has served me well, in many capacities. That said there are a few limiting factors to handling my Emacs setup in an interactive way through my package. For instance, temporarily commenting out a piece of your .emacs for testing/debugging purposes is easy, but not so easy with my package.
Therefore, I've begun rethinking if emacs-setup has completed its usefulness to me. Perhaps it is time for me to go back to working with straight init files again. I honestly haven't decided yet, but it is always in the back of my mind these days. Like with many things (emacs vs vi, evil vs default, GUI vs CLI, etc) I tend to flip-flop philosophies alarmingly regularly. Is my desire to go back to .emacs management a manifestation of my desire to be closer to pure, base Emacs? Is it, instead, in response to the few drawbacks emacs-setup has? Yet still, is it purely that I want to change again, to be different than I have been for so long? Put succinctly, if I switch back away from using emacs-setup, am I doing so for good reason or on a whim?
Side note: if you are using, or have used, emacs-setup. Let me know what you think. I'd be curious to see if it has helped or hurt anyone.]]>

Bennington fire called arsonBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | October 21,2013BENNINGTON Police are treating an early-morning apartment fire as an act of arson.
Shortly after 3 a.m. Sunday, members of the Bennington Fire Department responded to an apartment building at 113 Gage St. With aid from Bennington Rural Fire Department, firefighters contained the blaze to a single apartment and had it extinguished within 30 minutes.
There were no injuries.
It was a large effort to get the blaze extinguished, said Steven Crawford, chief of the Bennington Fire Department.
We probably had 40 firefighters and eight trucks on the scene, Crawford said.
The apartment building contains four units. When firefighters arrived, residents from two of the units had already fled the building, while a resident in a third apartment was not home at the time.
When firefighters entered the fourth unit, they encountered a fire in the entryway. After extinguishing that blaze, firefighters found two additional fires in each of the bedrooms.
The fire was contained to the apartment, police said, with damages estimated at $20,000.
The apartment where the fire began was rented out but was not occupied at the time of the fire, Crawford said. A dog that resided in the apartment managed to escape the fire, according to Crawford.
Due to the suspicious nature of the fire, Crawford requested assistance to investigate the origin and cause of the blaze. Investigators with the Vermont State Police and the Division of Fire Safety responded to the scene and determined the fires were set intentionally.
The other apartment units sustained smoke damage, said Crawford. Two families have been temporarily displaced because firefighters had to cut electrical power to the building. They have been given shelter by the American Red Cross.
The Bennington Fire Department was assisted at the scene by the Bennington Rescue Squad and Bennington Police. Members of the North Bennington Fire Department covered the Bennington Fire Station.
The incident remains under investigation and anyone with information is asked to call State Police Sgt. Steven Otis at 875-2112, the Bennington Police Department at 442-1030 or the anonymous Vermont Arson Tip Line at (800) 322-7766.

And after facing off against his two greatest enemies, the Joker and Two-Face for the final time, Batman finds himself in mortal combat with his former ally, Superman, in a battle that only one of them will survive.

Beginning with the simultaneous destruction of some of Gotham's oldest bridges, the mysterious villain is targeting the holdings and legacies of Gotham's most notable families--including the Waynes. To uncover the truth behind the villainous Architect and his link to the city's violent past, Batman unites with Robin, Red Robin and Batman Inc.'s Hong Kong operative the Black Bat. But can they stop their new foe's plans before it's too late? The future of Gotham started with an explosion, and it could end the very same way...

Classic ToeToe Socks
These are simply the best toe socks most of us have tried. They have great stretch, so don't worry if they look too small when you get them... they stretch right up to at least a 10, & they are definitely a 10 for comfort!
"Unisized 4-11 UK 35-46 EUR" should fit women's US shoe size 5-13 and men's size 4-11.5. They have a perfect amount of elastane to make sure the fabric will take the shape of any feet. Completely seamless w/ formed heels.
Cuffs stretch to about 13 inches.
The Black, Grey, Fuchsia, Lime, Purple, Red, Turquoise and White all have a ToeToe label at the cuff (see extra images for those colors to check out what it looks like). The label is easily removed.
Additional Info:
Made in Turkey
Fiber Content: 90% Cotton, 10% Elastane.
Feet have 250,000 sweat glands. High-quality cotton absorbs excess moisture, letting skin breathe and keeping feet naturally dry all day long.
Label: ToeToe
Is there any chance you can add a navy blue to your classic toe toe sock? I love these socks, but would really like a navy to add to my collection
I cannot possibly express the sheer force of my utter delight that your Extraordinarily Longer Thigh Highs (Striped and Solid versions) actually go up to my thighs on my fairly long and very curvy legs. I own four pairs of that particular style now, and plan on purchasing more!

It's been a long wait, but at least Rafael Montero and Matthew Reynolds are confirmed to have signed cards. Other than that, probably Topps Update and not much more. The first half was terrible with so little value in most products, it's just not worth it to open anything that isn't on clearance. Posted July 22, 2013 at 11:02 am | Permalink

When I was very young, my great-aunt gave me a set of the Book of Knowledge that had been published, I think, in the late 1920s. I used to read the volumes of the encyclopedia—each bound in embossed dark red with blue lettering—from cover to cover, like novels. It was a deeply strange reading experience, since by the time I got the books, a good deal of the information they contained (certainly much of the science and world affairs) was outdated, and besides, I was too young to understand much of what I was reading. The result was that I scarcely knew or cared what was supposed to be factual and what wasn't. Were the constellations really formed when Greek mythological figures were pasted up in the heavens? As far as I was concerned, they were.
One of my favorite pages was an illustration for a long article on Charles Kingsley's The Water Babies, the Victorian children's classic. Another contained a series of illustrations—I remember them as black-and-white photographs, but of course that is impossible—of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Colossus of Rhodes. Nothing in the text informed me (or perhaps I ignored what was there) that some of these places no longer existed, if they ever had. In any case, that was information I didn't want, because it would have interfered with my ambition to visit them someday, one by one.
On a recent sojourn in Sicily, I frequently found myself remembering that page in the children's encyclopedia, because it seemed to me that what I was seeing was as close as I will ever come to the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that in Sicily so many astonishing places are so close together. Within a single day you could, if you wished (given enough stamina and a really hot car), visit Segesta, home to probably the most majestically sited Greek temple and theater in Sicily; head west to the point of departure for Mozia and catch a boat to this ghostly island where an important Phoenician settlement once stood; and finally drive north up to Erice, a town so exquisite that it became the raw material for legends and was for centuries a center of the cult of the goddess Aphrodite. Though you could see all three places in one day, each of them makes you want to stay or to keep returning to watch the effects of the changing weather and the mercurial Sicilian light.
What Segesta, Mozia, and Erice have in common is that they are not only lovely but also mysterious. No one knows why the temple at Segesta was left unfinished—it has no roof, and the thick columns were never fluted—or exactly when it was built. Most scholars agree that it was constructed at some point in the fifth century B.C., by the citizens of Egesta, a settlement of Hellenized Elymians, members of one of Sicily's earliest indigenous groups—the same tribe that founded Eryx, as Erice was originally known.
Lonely, moody, surrounded by mountains, overlooking the patchwork fields in the valley below and (from the theater, which is uphill from the temple) a vista that extends all the way to the Gulf of Castellammare, Segesta is one of those places where the sky seems to expand as if in response to the heroic scale of what lies beneath it. For centuries it has been the sort of destination that inspired romantic voyagers to contemplate the sublimity and transience of earthly existence, the vast scope of eternity.
When Goethe visited Segesta, the site had not been restored to the extent it has been today; tired from the effort of "clambering about among the unimpressive ruins of a theater," he cut his visit short. Yet his description of the temple's setting still seems fresh and accurate.
The site of the temple is remarkable. Standing on an isolated hill at the head of a long, wide valley and surrounded by cliffs, it towers over a vast landscape ... The countryside broods in a melancholy fertility; it is cultivated but with scarcely a sign of human habitation ... The wind howled around the columns as though they were a forest, and birds of prey wheeled, screaming, above the empty shell.
From the start the prospect of going to Mozia made me a little edgy: sailing across a lagoon to an island on which no one lives but which was once the outpost of a highly developed and cruel civilization. Today there are only ruins, and a small museum in the former home of one Joseph Whitaker, an Englishman born in Sicily who made a fortune exporting Marsala wine. The ride wasn't long—ten, maybe fifteen, minutes. And the boatman was very clear about the fact that he'd be back to pick us up in two hours. Still, as he let us off at the dock on the island, I felt a sharp, irrational stab of panic and abandonment.
What if the fisherman who ferried my husband and me out there got distracted and forgot about us? What if we were stranded, exposed to the elements, alone with the spirits of the Phoenician traders who first came to Mozia in the eighth century B.C.? The traders lived in harmony with their Greek neighbors until a series of Carthaginian wars, when Dionysius the Elder of Syracuse, using catapults and battering rams (the state-of-the-art tools of warfare in the fourth century B.C.), destroyed the settlement and much of its population.

Finished Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

Finished Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own
Thomas Bernhard – The Loser
I've already started this, and i'm pretty much setisfied, but I have to push myself to stay persistent.
Julan Barnes – Flaubert's Parrot
I'm going to the gym for two months now. I feel very proud of myself, because I never though I could make it! What is more, I actually like it, I have need to go trainig, and that's just awsome! My final goal is to go there for three months, and than start to work out outside.
I'm really going to stop. I wanted to end this, but not this way, that should be decision, and it's going to happen in a hurry. You guess, I have financial issues and that's the reason why i have to do this so suddenly. I'm afraid, i cry all the time, like all my fears are back, or just around the corner. It seems like the situation impossible to solve… Can't remember when felt this bad…
... on bicycle. I think this is a very good start. Planing the same next week…
Is this enough for saying done?
I'm on the right road. Now, no wrong paths…
...after I gave up on this it happened alone. Now I'm moving in new apartment which is much bigger and closer to school. I'm still kinda sad because I'm leavin' my old roommate, but we still can be friends even though we're not gonna live together any more. It was a hard decision, but in the end I've choose option that is better for my future.
I AM in love! But, just for case, I won't say it out laud yet, I don't want to spoil it… :)
... one more step! I can't believe it, and I can't wait!
... frustrating! Just thinking about my room mate makes me nervous! What is worse, I don't think she is the problem. It's so clear that I am! She is very nice, and I used to be very happy when I found her but… It's been a year since we're living together and I realized that she doesn't "fit" me anymore… We have different habits, and the place we live in is actually her flat, so I never can feel like home. Btw, it's so small, an I really need space for studying where it's peace and quite, and I need privacy of course!
I know my parents doesn't have enough money to pay me a flat where I would live alone and all of my closest friends (who are only people I really could live with) have different plans. Maybe the worst thing is that even if I find another room mate and place to live it would be so emberesing for me to tell that to my current room mate, because she's is still so nice!
Oh, I'm just crazy about this!
I'm not sure I still want to do this. Maybe I should remove it from the list…For now…
Now I hope I'm not, 'cause we broke up. Why everything always have to be so complicated!
I am….
I am not…
I am…
I am not….
Am I?
I have a boyfriend! We're together for two months now, but I don't think I'm in love yet. I still feel very strange while I'm thinking about a relationship with someone who's not my ex. I'm not even thinking about love, I feel all that like having fun with someone new and nothing more, at least for now. Maybe that's good, but maybe I'm just foolin' myself with this guy…
What can I say…? Again…
Tomorrow I'm having my first exam. I'm SOOOO nervous, and can't say how much I really know. If I'm so insecure does it mean I don't have enough knowledge for passing? Aaaaaaa!!!!
One step back, two steps forward. But, the progress's what is important, isn't it?

Il piccolo Diavolo
Father Maurice, a priest living in a residential college for priests in Rome, is called out one day to "exorcise" the devil from someone. The devil turns out to be in the form of a fun-loving man called Giuditta. What Father Maurice doesn't know is that this type of devil will turn his life around.
