Holiday Glow Shines on Apple
Updated from 3:34 p.m. EST
Wall Street analysts gave investors in Apple (AAPL - Get Report) an early Christmas present on Monday: a bundle of upbeat reports that helped send the company's shares to an all-time high.
Apple's iPod digital music players appear to be a holiday hit, selling out or in short supply at a number of retailers, the analysts noted. That, plus the potential for an even better year next year, led analysts at Deutsche Bank and Piper Jaffray to raise their price targets on Apple's stock.
"Our checks over the Thanksgiving weekend suggest that demand for iPods and iMacs is strong and that Apple has sufficient supply to meet demand (so far)," said Deutsche Bank's Chris Whitmore, who raised his price target on Apple to $79 from $60. "We believe Apple is off to a very strong start to the holiday season."
Apple has been a non-investment-banking client of Deutsche Bank in the last 15 months. With the help of such sentiments, Apple's stock edged upward to as high as $71.07 -- a new high -- in intraday trading on Monday. At the close, the company's shares were up 32 cents, or less than 1%, to $69.66. Investors have been particularly bullish on Apple in the last six months. While the company's shares have more than doubled in the year to date, they are up 94% just since mid-June. And many on Wall Street expect the bull run to continue. The company's revival began with its launch of the popular iPod four years ago. Sales of the devices now comprise about one-third of Apple's total revenue, and for years this has been the fastest-growing part of its business. If the analysts' reports are correct, the company's digital music players are as in as high demand as ever this holiday season.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Hello to all you snow lovers! We finally got a big one. Last Monday about 10:30 till 12, when I finally finished grocery shopping, the stores were as busy as I've seen them since Christmas Eve, 1998, when we had the huge ice storm. Remember? In both cases it was difficult to even get down some aisles. The good thing was people being nice and trying to be patient. A snowstorm can certainly be a hardship. It can also be that break in our routines that gives us time to pause and think of something good. Many thanks go out to all the people who remove snow and take care of our roads and are there when emergencies occur. What would we do without you? I'm sending a personal thanks out to Evan Davis, a Lee-Davis student who came and cleaned off our driveway. He did a very thorough job.
I have enjoyed a couple of walks over ice in the streets and noticed a lot of neighborhood kids, building forts, having snowball fights and sliding down hills. I'll bet they're ready to get back to school for a while. As I write this, it is much warmer, but more warning of flurries are still in the forecast.
Neighboring Henrico County native, Rayvon Owen is among the top 24 contestants in this season of "American Idol." It's nice to have a local doing so well.
Spring is on the way. It really is! Mark your calendar for Saturday, March 21 to come to a Spring Craft Bazaar from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Church of the Redeemer, 8275 Meadowbridge Road in Mechanicsville. You can start out with breakfast and stay for lunch.
In between you can shop and stop and chat with folks you didn't see during the cold weather. Of course you'll need some crafts to brighten your spring. A $1 ticket at the door gets you a chance at a door prize. If you bring a can of food for the needy, you'll get a bonus chance. Raffle tickets are $2 or 3 for $5, and there are hourly drawings. There will also be a bake sale. It might still be cold outside, but I can promise lots of warmth on the inside
Mechanicsville wants to hear your news? I want to print news about what your church or organization is up to. I want to write about your experience with the weather and any event you'll be celebrating. Please email me at email@example.com or call (804) 746-9142.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Photographer Glen E. Friedman remembers Bob "The Bullet" Biniak, a hero in the early days of skate culture who was a member of the original "Z-Boys" team. Biniak suffered a massive cardiac arrest on Sunday, and passed away Thursday at 12:51pm EST in Florida. From Glen's blog post:
Back in DogTown's heyday Biniak was known as one of the toughest, hardest skating dudes out there. Few could match his skills skating the infamous pipes out in Arizona or on the vertical flat wall of Mt. Baldy. In pool skating he was a clear innovator as witnessed by my lens, and Craig Stecyk's even earlier when he was interviewed in SkateBoarder magazine's first ever "Pool Riding Symposium." Bob early on received the coveted "Who's Hot" bio, and later, only for the most respected riders, a full length interview in SkateBoarder. He was also voted as one of the top ten Skateboarders of the year in SkateBoarder magazine's first annual poll held in 1977.Bob "The Bullet" Biniak, original Z-Boy, Bad Ass Mother Fucker, R.I.P. (Idealist Propaganda)
Related: DogTown: The Legend of the Z-Boys, a book documenting Biniak and fellow skate pioneers, co-created by Friedman and C.R. Stecyk III.
Biniak's passing follows the recent loss of fellow early Dogtown greats Baby Paul and Dennis "Polar Bear" Agnew. There will be a memorial skate for Biniak at the Venice Skate Park (named for Agnew) this Sunday, according to Yo Venice.

Visit my Nikonians gallery.
The two slow sync settings (front and rear) are used to let in more ambient light into the background of your flash photo. The shutter will stay open longer as metered to get the background while the flash fires a short burst to fully light up your subject.The difference between the two settings is when the flash fires. "Slow Sync" will fire the flash at the start of the exposure while "rear sync" will fire it at the end of the exposure. "Rear sync" is often the better choice because if the subject moves during the longer exposure, the flash will fire at their final location instead of their starting location.---------+---------+---------+---------+Joseph KSeattle, WA, USAD200, 17-55mm f/2.8 DX, 70-200mm f/2.8 VR, 50mm f/1.4 D18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 DX, 70-300mm f/4-5.6 ED, D70S

Happy the storms missed you, we get the same weather and it is so randum where it decides to strike. I'm killing you? your T-45 is killing me. We will just have to continue on and hope to survive! Hanzie, The upright wire cutter is new (2 months ago) and only used it once before to help shape the canopy blank on the F-84. Since this is pretty new territory, I used both, but think I will start using my homemade stuff more next build. As far as paint goes, we really have that worked out and actually many paints work great. Just happens that someone posted in a thread this morning that shows what can be done easy with just paint. Click on THIS LINK to see a MiG-3 http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1504266in foam and how it was painted. A Yak 9 would be very cool. Blue foam works if you can't get pink. That green stuff is not even close. White works too. Walt, Thank you Sir. The glue stand was right off the assembly line in that photo. I resisted for years, but so worth the 10 minutes, and pennies to make it. Just plug in the glue gun before cutting foam to save some time. I'll bet you MiG is done before my Yak. Thanks again.

Hope I am not boring you, but needed to start to make internal space and foam removal. After all equipment all has to go on the inside. So since it is so easy to make these aluminum templates, this time I just made a couple extras to do inside cuts, and drill holes for pins to hold them to the foam.
If I post some plans, and the next time I build something doing this technique, I would make single templates that would include all in one: A), Exterior shape, B). Interior shape for cutout, C). location holes to take pins, and for toothpick dowels. I drill for the pins with a clipped off section of a sewing pin. You want the clipped end to stay ragged from the clippers, rough and sharp. Old woodworking trick is drill holes with nails. It works for a great accurate hole, and often trying to find such small drill bits could be costly and hard to come by. They just plain work! Note I then hot wire cut out the center of section #3, and it came out real nice. I really like this method of building. Guess because it is something new for me, and that always holds my interest.

So I didn't have much time day #2 or today because of all those things we have to do in real life. I did get some progress that makes me feel even more confident this is a pretty cool prospect and is going to work out in the end.
Mostly did some marking, chasing with the toothpick, adding dowels, pluging parts together to get a bit more rough sanding and blending done. Fred ImagesView all Images in thread |

Opps, too many posts and photos like usual! Sorry. Look at POST #20 linked Here. Simply regular cheap scissors, some drilling/or punch/nibbler work, and a Dremel. The Aluminum roof flashing is about .008" thick (0.25mm) and soft, but very springy. On a roll it is really cheap too! And DAVE, While I have your attention: I own one of those Sky Angel T-45's that HK delivered so beat up I will never fly it. It will be a organ doner one day for other things. Since the ESC smokes on 3 cell, and is only good for 2 cell operation, do you think it is reliable enough to use on an Ammo and GP 30mm Hyperflow application? I won't use it if it is total junk, not worth it. What is our valued opinion? But........ Thanks Fred |

So I was now able to plug parts together and really start to do some final roughing in of the sanding work. In fact I am now using my medium 120 grit, and 180 grit sandpaper blocks.
I know there are a lot of photos in this post, but then there are a lot of angles to see when you are shaping a fuselage to your liking. There is more to sand, cut out on the internals. Then glue, fill. final sand, etc. But for now I thought I would share my results up to this point. No need to hog this moment all to myself, right. Beside it is my thread so I can post as many pictures as I want. I'm a little aren't I! Fred ImagesView all Images in thread

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowhttp://www.arshtcenter.org The Adrienne Arsht Center might be Miami's most beautiful building. Any way you slice it, the modern tribute to glass and steel is a bold reminder of our city's commitment to the arts. Most major shows make a stop at the Arsht Center, from Les Miserables to the Boston Pops. The largest performing arts center in Florida, this 5,000 seat apex is comfy indeed. There's a concert hall, a theater in the round, an outdoor performance space and even a swanky eatery on site. Sure, a visit to the Arsht ain't cheap - you'll pay a pretty penny for drinks and snacks and probably tickets (although deals do abound) - but it's so worth it to nourish your starving intellect, now isn't it? More >>
http://www.aaarena.com Besides its duties as home base for our beloved Heat, the American Airlines arena sees a lot of action. The 20,000 seat downtown arena is hard to miss, what with the thousands of taillights from the gridlock it induces or the massive outdoor screen facing the street. Regardless, the arena is where the big names bank. From Taylor Swift to Queen Beyonce - they all pass through, eager to play to Miami's music lovers. So while you'll struggle with traffic hell and overpriced drinks, you're paying for star power here - and you'll get it in spades. More >>
http://www.clevelandorchestramiami.com In addition to its myriad of other uses, the Adrienne Arsht Center is also home to the Cleveland Orchestra's Miami residency. Annually, the internationally acclaimed crew plays an extensive program in downtown's flagship center. From Beethoven Nine and Piano Concerto No. 4 to Mahler's Symphony No. 3, their calendar runs the classical gamut. Ticket prices start around $52, so get all gussied up and listen to some string instruments for the evening. More >>
http://www.grandcentralmiami.com The Garret is a secret hideaway club within downtown indie hot-spot Grand Central. It has its own side entrance (use 7th street), and a steep flight of stairs, so watch your footwork. The bar is dark, the drinks are cold, and the intimate room hosts artists and DJs well into the early morning. More >>
http://www.grandcentralmiami.com This midsize live-performance venue has a killer light show and sound system. The open warehouse-like space in downtown Miami includes a stage, plenty of dance floor, a range of seating options, and an outdoor area. Management procures buzz-worthy underground indie acts from around the world. More >>
http://www.olympiatheater.org/ Old is the new new. Especially in a city like Miami, where historic charms are often bulldozed to make way for new school crap. Thank God for the Olympia Theater at Gusman Center, a shining beacon to Miami's glamorous past, smack dab in the middle of downtown. Erected in 1926 as a home for silent movies, this recently restored palace oozes charisma, from the red velvet curtains to the baroque balconies. The theater's simulated night-sky ceiling has looked down on the likes of Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Luciano Pavarotti and countless other notable names. Today, they host movie screenings, concerts, live performances and a whole host of other events. So get glammed up and spend an evening immersed in what once was. There's something to be said for the classics, after all. More >>
http://www.railroadbluesmiami.com/ To the uninformed passerby, Railroad Blues, disguised as Railroad News, looks like an old-time newsstand, the entrance cleverly hidden from sight. Inside, the vibe is that of a Prohibition-era railroad car, complete with decorative luggage, moody lighting, and classy staffers dressed in bow ties, corsets, and suspenders. Taking up residence at 30 NE 14th Street, the speakeasy-style venue and drinking space shares the same building as Steam Miami, which inhabits the Vagabond's old location. More >>
http://www.steammiami.com "As water boils and changes form, you'll come here one way and leave another." That whole transformational nightclub experience is what industry vets Russ Bruce and Anthony Moretti hope to create with the Magic City's first performance-driven party hall, Steam Miami. From the industrial pipe that releases puffs of steam onto NE 14th Street to "secret rooms," a metal-bead-curtained catwalk that surrounds the club, and giant chains that hang from the ceiling, everything about Steam encompasses an element of surprise. Located in the former Vagabond space, the 10,000-square-foot space is "part nightclub, part theater, part live entertainment" venue. More >>

Using Tweetbot and wondering how to enable the recently added experimental push notifications? Tapbots just recently opened up tons more slots in the beta program so if you haven't enabled it, there's still a good chance you can snag a slot.
The most common question I've been getting is how to enable push notifications. Although Tweetbot is a gorgeous Twitter client, the push settings are in a bit of a weird place. Follow along for a quick guide on how to try and activate push in Tweetbot.

Getting the dreaded "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" error when trying to install an iOS 5 beta, and wondering how to edit your hosts file to get around the problem? Host files can often be used to resolve issues with an iTunes restore, even those that happen due to SHSH saves on jailbroken devices. Follow along for a quick walkthrough, and I'll show you how.
Since Apple recently released iOS 5 beta 3, you may be wondering whether or not you can jailbreak as you could with beta 1 and beta 2. Fortunately, beta 3 is also jailbreakable.
But again, we'll warn you that beta software has its own qualms to begin with so if you're not comfortable with a few more bugs, we urge you to stay away. Also keep in mind a lot of jailbreak tweaks and apps have not yet been updated to support iOS 5. If you absolutely need to get your beta jailbreak on, follow along for another walk-through.
Just get iOS 5 beta 2 and already wondering how to Jailbreak it? We recently showed you how to jailbreak iOS 5 beta 1 with Redsn0w. Fortunately, the process for beta 2 isn't much different. You'll simply need to use the beta 1 IPSW in order to jailbreak.
As always, betas are already buggy to begin with, and iOS 5 is no exception. The Dev-Team and many jailbreak devs are really only encouraging developers to jailbreak iOS 5 beta as of now. So if you are a developer (or a ninja who is afraid of nothing), follow along for a short walk-through.
Jailbroken Verizon iPhone users on iOS 4.2.7 have been stuck on a tethered jailbreak until recently. Sn0wbreeze 2.6.1 will allow you to go from tethered to untethered quickly and easily. So if you used redsn0w to jailbreak your Verizon iPhone and you're currently tethered, hit the jump for a quick walkthrough on how to free your Verizon iPhone from its tethered state!
How to back up application data is a question I get asked almost on a daily basis. This question seems to get asked even more frequently every time a new jailbreak is released. I never recommend restoring from a jailbroken backup, ever. It can bring all kinds of problems with it and cause crashes and freezes. I always recommend a new restore.
But what about all your game save data and other app data? If you don't restore from a backup, it's gone right? Not exactly. There's tons of reasons why you may need to completely restore your device. Whatever the reason is, appbackup is a huge aid that helps bring your application data with you.
Hit the jump for a walkthrough!
SBSettings is a wonderful little jailbreak app that adds tons of quick toggles to your iOS springboard. The one thing I don't care for in SBSettings is the default theme. It's just downright ugly. I get tons of questions on whether or not you can theme SBSettings like you can the rest of your springboard. The answer is yes. It's quite simple actually. Hit the jump to find out how!
Complete review of Apple's iOS 4.3 software update for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
iOS 4.3 is now in gold master and scheduled for release on March 11, 2011 alongside iPad 2 with new features like Wi-Fi personal hotspot for iPhone, iTunes home sharing, improved AirPlay, faster Safari and more.
If you want a quick look at the new software but don't have a lot of time, check out the video above for everything you need to know about iOS 4.3 in just 5 minutes. For a more in-depth iOS 4.3 guide, read on after the break.
Note: We're combining iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad walkthroughs below since, post iOS 4.2 grand-unification the size of the updates are roughly similar. If it gets more complicated later, we'll split iPhone/iPod touch out from iPad like last time.
Greenpois0n RC5 now allows you to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 untethered on most devices including iPhone 4 and iPad. The best part? You won't need any SHSH blobs saved. redsn0w beta required you to have 4.2b3 blobs saved (and it was pretty unstable). Hopefully greenpois0n is going to be a much smoother experience for you guys. Hit the jump for a walkthrough on how to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 with greenpois0n and for the answers to some commonly asked questions.
IAlready jailbroken your Apple TV 2 and curious how to install the nifty little XBMC add-on that allows you to stream and add even more content from your network?

Hit the jump for a quick walkthrough on how to get XBMC working on your jailbroken Apple TV 2.

Symptoms Similar To Radiation Poisoning Killing Seals/Walruses - Russia, Alaska, Canada - Scientists Fear Could Be Infecting Entire Ocean
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
link to hisz.rsoe.hu
"The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared a recent rash of seal deaths to be an "unusual mortality event" on Tuesday. More than 60 seals have died and 75 found diseased in Alaska with skin sores and patchy hair loss. The Fish and Wildlife Service has also identified diseased and dead walruses."
"In most cases, necropsies and lab tests have revealed
skin lesions, fluid in the lungs, white spots on the liver, and abnormal growths in the brain. Some of the seals and walruses have undersized lymph nodes
, possibly a sign of weakened immuned systems."
link to hisz.rsoe.hu
A mysterious and potentially widespread disease is thought to have contributed to the deaths of dozens of ringed seals along Alaska's Arctic coast. Scores more are sickened, some so ill that skin lesions bleed when touched.
The animals are an important subsistence food, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has proposed listing them as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act."
""Right now we're leaning toward it being a virus, and that could weaken their immune system,""
"Reports of nearly 150 other seals with the illness have come in from villages outside Barrow, population 4,200, as well as from Chukotka, Russia, and Tuktoyuktak, a village on the northwestern corner of Canada, Herreman said."
"He's concerned the illness will spread up the food chain, affecting other animals and hunters near Kotzebue Sound."
""I'm scared they might pass it on one way or another and the whole ocean could be affected," Shiedt said. Folks in the Barrow region also are worried.
Many of the Slope's Inupiat residents are about to begin hunting for seals, and some are wondering if they are safe to eat, Herreman said."
"The sickest ones don't move much on the beaches and they have blisters or wounds that bleed easily, including around the nose, eyes and especially the rear flippers. Others have lost much of their hair.
"They're not deathly skinny. It's not like they're dying from malnutrition."
People are worried about what "doom" or "apocalyptic event" is going to happen that will reset the planet, or destroy it completely...but I think Fukushima got the ball rolling.
If all ocean species die off suddenly, we're looking at a complete collapse of the marine ecosystem. It's called an Anoxic event, and apparently Fukushima is one.
I think we're looking at a shutdown of ecosystems, a butterfly effect, if you will.
On top of that...it feels like spring here in Boston today. Right now the temperature outside is about 55 degrees and feels like 60. That is ridiculous. We have had ONE storm, a nor'easter in OCTOBER. I believe that it will stay warm on and off for awhile, and then suddenly without warning we are going to get SLAMMED. I think New England is looking at one of the worst winters for blizzards in a very long time. Food and fuel trucks will probably have difficulty making deliveries and people are going to panic. It's gonna get messy.
Anybody else have thoughts on these subjects.
with you 100%....and it seems when you try to help people, many are still sleeping & think you are a fool.
Time is now....welcome to Purgatory folks....you only have TWO choices of where you can go, choose wisely.

The Time Traveler's Wife(2009)Clare has been in love with Henry her entire life. She believes they are destined to be together, even though she never knows when they will be separated: Henry is a time traveler-- cursed with a rare genetic anomaly that causes him to live his life on a shifting timeline, skipping back and forth through his lifespan with no control. Despite the fact that Henry's travels force them apart with no warning, Clare desperately tries to build a life with her one true love. For more about The Time Traveler's Wife and the The Time Traveler's Wife Blu-ray release, see the The Time Traveler's Wife Blu-ray Review published by Kenneth Brown on January 28, 2010 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.0 out of 5. Starring: Eric Bana, Rachel McAdams, Ron Livingston, Stephen Tobolowsky, Arliss Howard, Brooklynn Proulx Director: Robert Schwentke » See full cast & crew The Time Traveler's Wife Blu-ray, Video QualityThe Time Traveler's Wife features a sumptuous 1080p/VC-1 transfer brimming with rich colors and dramatic primaries. Despite some over-saturation, skintones are gorgeous; while sullied by crush, blacks are incredibly inky; though nearly impenetrable, delineation is faithful to cinematographer Florian Ballhaus' painterly vision. Henry's visits to Clare's childhood home are steeped in lush fields and blazing skies. His tenuous trip down a night-clad alleyway is dotted with warm golden hues and seedy greens. His dash through a snow-swept forest exposes him to a stormy bed of chilly grays and blues. Contrast remains strong and stable regardless of the scenario, and the film's jarring palette shifts are strangely consistent even in their inconsistency. Moreover, fine textures stake a claim on every surface, depth is convincing, and detail is exceedingly sharp. Arguably too sharp. Edge enhancement takes a slight toll on the image, occasionally disconnecting foreground objects from their backgrounds. Likewise, faces framed by bright skies suffer from brittle definition and minor ringing. It never becomes a major distraction, but it's an unnecessary hindrance that lessens the impact of the transfer. Be that as it may, The Time Traveler's Wife has been properly primed and polished for mass consumption. Fans of the film will be ecstatic. The Time Traveler's Wife Blu-ray, Audio QualityWarner's able-bodied DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track is just as impressive. The Time Traveler's Wife doesn't offer a bombastic sonic experience by any means -- whispers and sighs frequent Henry and Clare's conversations, Mychael Danna's score is one of the more engaging elements of the mix, and snazzy directional effects are few and far between -- but it does handle the film's quiet exchanges and more sobering scenes with poise and confidence. LFE support is ever-present and ever-ready, and rear speaker activity enhances interior acoustics and exterior ambience. Bustling city streets immerse the listener in crowd chatter and dense traffic, Clare's lonely home sounds as empty as it should, and Henry's sudden arrival in another time period carries with it the weight of whatever situation he finds himself in. To that end, pans are transparent and dynamics prove to be quite arresting. Granted, a first-act tragedy and a third-act mishap are two of the only standout sequences, but the rest of the mix is so proficient that it hardly matters. Dialogue is crisp and intelligible (regardless of the locale), lines are never buried in the mix, and prioritization is spot on. The track wouldn't turn many heads in the middle of Best Buy, but it is another solid offering from Warner Brothers. Blu-ray bundles with The Time Traveler's Wife (1 bundle)
