4 Stylish (Although smaller than it looks)Posted: 13/02/2009I bought this as part of a package deal so mine was half price. It takes fifteen minutes max to assemble, it's that simple. Once built it looks extremely stylish albeit a little small. My only qualm would be paying full price which is why I have given it four stars and not five.
5 Wonderful!Posted: 13/02/2009This television is excellent for it's price. My friend fortunately bought it for 370 and I unfortunately bought it for 450, but i do not have any regrets because I beleive this television is worth 450. It has a lovely picture in Standard Definition(SD) which is refreshing because my sisters tele(LG 37") looks awful in SD. As for the HD, it is downright stunning. My PS3 games look immense.Other bonuses are the freeview and sound. The software is so much better than my digibox and it is just more functional and user friendly. The sound, I expected it to be 'tinny' for some unknown reason but thankfully it wasn't. Even with the volume on low it still booms out nice and clear.Overall this tele is near flawless for it's price. If you are after a good, large, HD tele which doesn't have to be 1080p then this is the one I would recommend.
4 Splendid AdditionPosted: 15/11/2008This is a lovely little iPod accessory. Packs a punch for something small, however there is very little bass, but that is to be expected due to it's size and price. If like me you feel you have a need for this then I would recommend it. Who knows might even make a good Christmas present...Not sure on what iPods it works but mine is a 120gig classic.
5 Advice for batteries.Posted: 11/09/2008Camera is fantastic and the videos are also excellent. These qualities are not in question. However, the battery situation is.I bought a sony "fast charger" (off play.com for about 12 pounds) which came with four AA 2500mah Ni-MH batteries and thankfully they work a treat. They also only take four hours to charge. I took approximately 250 pictures the other day, whilst messing about with the options and whatnot in between shots before they eventually died on me. Compare this to the Duracell batteries I first put in when I first used it and it is an immense difference. Those rechargeable batteries allayed all my fears.For those who have bought the camera, i hope that helps. For those thinking of buying this camera do not be put off. The camera is immense and it is only an extra twelve pounds for the batteries and charger.
4 ExcellentPosted: 23/06/2008Excellent iconic image of Willem Defoe in Oliver Stone's brilliant film Platoon. Looks majestic on an empty wall.
5 Watch it again.Posted: 23/06/2008When I watched this film in the cinema for the first time, I like alot of other people I know, was disappointed with how the film ended, especially considering the brilliance that had occurred prior to the last twenty minutes, which actually felt longer than the previous one hundred. However when I watched this for a second time on DVD, I felt an appreciation for the final scenes and especially for Tommy Lee Jones and his character. All of a sudden the film had a meaning. Just by watching it for a second time, you simply understand the things you didn't the first time around.
5 Excellent.Posted: 12/12/2007I bought these to go running with and they are excellent in comparison to my iPods earphones. At a penny under five pound you can't ask for anymore really. The extra bass is evident and both the wire for the left ear and the right ear are of equal length thankfully so none of that business where you have to loop a headphone round your neck. The product also came with the usual protective thing that covers the earphones like you get with most earphones these days. If you expect more for five pounds then don't buy these, but me personally, I think they're great.
5 Fantastic! Superb. (Insert more superlatives here)Posted: 11/09/2007I am absolutely stunned with this product. The best value for money TV/PC monitor at the moment.Ordered Monday morning, delivered Tuesday lunchtime. Absolutely astonished with that.Setup was less than 10 minutes. Plug and Play.No blacklight bleed, No dead pixels.I use speakers but the sound is fine without them.Nice, easy to use remote control (with batteries)If you have a PC and Console (PS3 or Xbox360) in the same room, this is the tele to have if you are worrying about finances.
5 Simple, cheap and effective.Posted: 07/09/2007Bought this for my PS3, works a treat. HD uses digital signals so a cheap one is exactly the same as an expensive one. At 10 pound i was happy with this. Probably could have got a cheaper cable had I shopped around but wasnt worth it for a few quid. First cable I came across much cheaper than high street, quick delivery, thank you PLAY.
5 Excellent, all round.Posted: 04/09/2007Ordered this product on Saturday evening and it arrived on Tuesday morning, which was pleasently surprising. It was also fully packaged for those concerned about other reviews. The player itself does the job, it comes with Nero software, you cannot ask for any more really. Lovely stuff.

imright,not only are you wrong,you have some serious issues,"sweet tears drip drip down Michelle Obama's cruel face". you cannot be a lifelong democrat or you would not wish for a victory for a man who supports almost nothing Hillary Clinton does and wish for the humiliation a new generation of "smart "young democrats.
What you sound like is a bitter woman whose candidate lost and wants to destroy everything around you because you did not get your way.I feel sorry for your ex-husband.
Great article! It reminds me "PC for Dummies" - brief and witty.
pgr88 (and others),Obama has surrounded himself with experienced policy wonks precisely because he will need their expertise and wonkiness to effect any sort of change. He needs to have some traction with the existing apparatus in order to interact with it and yes, change it. These advisers are intended to give him that traction.Consider taking a walk with someone who is moving at too slow a pace. You could simply walk fast and have a total disconnect, or you could match their speed and slowly increase it, resulting in their slowly changing their speed to match yours. You need to make contact with a thing in order to change it.It could be argued that HillaryCare failed in the early 90's by virtue of failing to apply this principle...
What a huge huge pleasure it will be in November 2008 when the TV flashes "Mccain takes Ohio, McCain Takes Texas, McCain Takes Florida, McCain takes Pennsylvania, McCain Takes Michigan", and the sweet tears drip drip down Michelle Obama's cruel face.....!
I have a good bottle of champagne ready to drink along with Hillary that evening.
How sweet it will be to see all these crooked smart guys beaten and humiliated !!!
I am a lifelong Democrat.
funny - Obama ran as an "outsider" but has garden variety democrat policy wonks for advisors. It just shows how empty his claims of "change" are.
At the end of the article, there are a lot of what ifs. I cannot imagine a situation where things get worse than where they were under Bush. Remember the early 2000 congress (the "Hammer" anyone? Mark Foley, mountains of sleaze, corruption etc.)Let's face if folks, the bar is set pretty low. And I'm a Republican.
sjaganna :All these guys are clinton folks? Where do you get that? The article pointed out several examples of why they are not clinton folks. e.g., the woman who said Clinton was a "monster". Read it again.
He will not win. He cannot win. Maybe next time.
The economic credentials of the men in Obamaworld look good. Unfortunately economies don't run the way economics is taught in universities. Many economists have problems making non-specialists understand them. Those long equations in economics textbooks and academic journals do not come anywhere near the the real world.
...Mr. Obama with world support and a growing euphoria… unequivocally will change the political-mind-set of world politics. From my perspective he is the second coming of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, India's great leader Gandhi, John F. Kennedy and more.The radicals of the world like George Bush, Tony Blair and other nations leaders who supported the Iraq war and see the world through the exploitations of race, culture and religion is going to disappear like affordable gasoline has in America.
Actually, the way to go is to have social programs, but to have substantially less regulation of business coupled with that. (Also with large re-training programs, a la Denmark) France, for example, has a welfare state, but they ignore the chief advantage of one -- that you can hire and fire workers with moral impunity, since they will be taken care of. So, they suffer work and transportation stoppages at the hands of unions when they're really not too bad off.Also, for example, American healthcare is tied to employment by a specific firm. This makes it rather dangerous for an individual to switch firms, reducing economic liquidity.
I have never lived during a depression but have lived during a recession. At the moment, the financial state at least in my neck of the woods, feels like neither. When you have a hamburger joint called Red Robin selling burgers for $7 bucks and up and the parking lot is crammed full of cars, we are NOT in any sort of recession - YET. As high as food prices are, as high as gas prices are, I am nothing short of astounded that for the most part life for most has gone on with barely an audible "ouch". People today are resilient and can modify their behavior pretty darn quick. We are having a huge summerfest here in our town and the crowds are huge paying 25 dollars and up for admission. Maybe in my mind a recession is technically upon us when all the frills in the life no longer are attended. BTW, I also see few for sale signs in the yards. I think the media has grabbed on to this idea that the end is near in order to support their political position that change is needed. Do I think this administration has been fiscally prudent? NOPE, not by a long shot. Do I think any administration has been? NOPE, and never will unless the US taxpayer takes the time to put the screws to those in Washington that live in a bubble.
Ultimately class warfare is going to be the ruination of the social democracies. It's absolutely impossible to continue to provide higher and higher levels of service without a proportionate growth in real productivity. When people are living longer and retiring with decades left of expensive life to maintain AND are not having the necessary amount of children to work and pay for their own upkeep and maintenance then ultimately these programs got to go.
You cannot blame a Republican OR Democratic president for being unable to muster the popular support to get rid of some of these social programs. It's damn near impossible because once a democracy figures they can vote themselves cradle to grave healthcare, education, housing, transportation, and food they will.
Well, this is a lot like global warming (regardless of its causes) in that the signs of catastrophe are there but everyone is too interested in their own selves to do anything for the common good. Which I suppose is ironic, advocating less public service as being better for the common good, but history has shown that to be the case.
Doctor X: I was against the war when Hans Blix and Scott Ritter reported no WMD. Bechtel left Iraq almost 2 years ago because of corruption in the Iraqi government - looting, no security etc. Halliburton is still there sucking up money, doing jobs the military could do for itself, making more than our kids are making. Blackwater is still there, unaccountable to anybody or any government. The Maliki government made it through two so-called controlled elections, but pulled elections in the South when it was clear that they could not carry the country. No regional elections allowed. Who props up Maliki if not the US? $30 billion in NY banks and we are still paying for everything? Perhaps our allies are pulling out of Afghanistan because it has become a corrupt narco state with Pakistan being "unhelpful" in securing the border. The Taliban just managed to break out between 1200 and 1500 Taliban prisoners in the South. Iraq is neither Germany nor Japan: We had completely beaten both countries when we began to establish democratic governments there; we were not facing Japanese insurgents, nor German insurgents - we did not face an unseen "enemy"; we had allies; and we were able to administer both countries until we had truly established representative governments. Not true in Iraq, not now, nor in the foreseeable future. Maliki is not our strength, rather our weakness. What do we know about Middle Eastern politics, tribal loyalties across borders, an ancient political history -or anything at all for that matter. And, the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, with the Bagram prison scandals, have left us out there alone with torture as a policy. To date, we are still paying for Rumsfeld's "old Europe" arrogance and the Bush/Cheney willingness to kidnap and torture unnamed, unseen "enemy combatants". Maybe you know who is in Gitmo and why they are there, what they have been charged with, who were sold to us, and who were legitimately captured attempting to do us harm - I don't - and I don't think my fellow citizens know either. Until Bush is gone, we are seriously tainted.
What a way to finish an article! What if smart economic policies are ignored and President Obama loses his leadership and what if and what if...Yes, there are many contingencies; but I think most of the American electorate are ready to take a "gamble" on good judgement, leadership and policies. Agreed?
Jet Screamer: McCain is no ordinary Republican. He criticized the Rumsfeld strategy from day one (earliest was 2004, I believe), calling for more troops to secure the peace and listening to the generals on the ground. McCain also called for the surge (and a much larger one) long before the Bush admin even contemplated. The fact is, we would not be in the same mess had McCain managed the counterinsurgency from the start. That's why I trust McCain, Republican or not. northstate: I was never swayed by the faux patriotism leading up to the 2003 intervention. If you were, and you now feel duped, that was your fault. Don't try to change the subject because you have no legitimate response to facts. If we are there for decades, why is there this assumption that the weak Iraqi government will stay in its present state for so long? And the Iraqi government is no puppet. It commands support from two federal elections with a larger turnout than our own. Yes, it has its gridlock and serious defects, but it is not some kind of American imposed stooge. You cannot impose democracy. It's a logical impossibility. If there is democracy in Iraq - and there is, given the evidence before, even if it's weak democracy - then it is not American imposed. But indeed, if we can get violence down and reduce casualties to a manageable level, I'd be for a two decade long occupation. It's what we did in Japan and Germany. As for Afghanistan, Let's ask our allies why they are all withdrawing from Afghanistan and at the same time calling for more western leadership in solving the world's problems.
All these guys that Obama has on his side to advise him looks like are Clinton folks. If someone is running on the notion of change why would he surround himself will same old folks where is the change, innovation and new thinking. It is sounding more like any other candidate.
Doctor X: are you suggesting that we are now in Iraq to broker a particular form of government? Are we there for decades to prop up a puppet, corrupt government? Since you mention faux patriotism, isn't that how this war has been waged? And, you don't answer the problem that is Afghanistan. Malacapricornis: You are big on theoreticals, but that is not helpful to the thousands who have been laid off, or who are about to be laid off. As far as economic and intellectual wealth, we are now in competition with China, India and Europe. WWII is over and our hegemony is over. We need to produce an educated generation ready to compete with countries who are educating their young to move into the 21st century. We used to keep foreign students here because they wanted to be here; now foreign students go home with their education and skill sets. Our immigration policy is keeping out those few who do want to come in and add to our intellectual capital. Europe is independent of our economy, and the global economy no longer hangs by a thread from our economy. We can step up, put our resources into solar, wind, alternative fuels: all of which can create jobs here at home. We can make better cars; we can invest in mass transit and rail. We can do so many things besides pouring youngsters and money into the sand in the Middle East. America has enormous potential and strength, all we need is a leader who asks us to use it. (Note: the "trickle down" theory promoted by Reagan et al never worked, and will never work.)
@ Doctor X & northstate - It was the republicans that got us into this mess, and I'm not sure how much I trust them to get us out of it- no matter if that means staying in or getting out of Iraq. If we stay, we do little good, garner further resentment, and keep paying and paying. if we leave, we condem the country to violence it hasn't seen in a 1000 years. In the end, we did this; we're responsible. This immense debocle will ultimately be a mess that someone else has to clean up and in more ways than one- probably our children. So many thanks to our current administration for lying to us and our allies, and going it alone.
@ SRU Poli Guy - Republican and Democratic policies have EVERYTHING to do with helping the country whether a storm- you may call the current economy a component of a natural cycle- perhaps it is, perhaps it is not- either way, its the government's responsibility to craft policies that shelter the country from its damaging effects. One might question if the current administration has thoughtfully done so, or if it has created a situation for itself where it can't- namely by spending so much on the war, that could otherwise have been put to a more constructive use in a time like this.
It's alot like what happened with Katrina- a natural storm that you can't blame the administration for creating. But you can blame it for not being prepared for it and for not responding appropriately.

Settled below the strikingly beautiful mountains of the Japanese Alps lies Azumino, a picturesque valley in the heart of the countryside of Honshu, the central island of Japan. The area, introduced as Hotaka in the 'Lonely Planet Japan' guidebook, is located in the western part of Nagano, the prefecture that was brought to international attention during the 1998 Winter Olympic Games. With stunning views of the surrounding alpine landscape and a dizzying array of cultural attractions, Azumino really is one of Japan's best-kept secrets!
Azumino attracts many visitors throughout the year through its close proximity to the neighbouring city of Matsumoto and its close association with the sweeping mountains that overlook the area. Indeed, Azumino is seen by many as the 'gateway' to the Japanese Alps, and hikers and snowsports enthusiasts flock to these mountains annually to sample their world-class trails and slopes.
While the Northern Alps are certainly the most dominant feature in the area, Azumino is equally famous the vast wealth of cultural attractions that can be found throughout its valley. The Daio Wasabi Farm in Hotaka area is the largest of its kind in Japan, and draws many visitors through its picturesque setting and delicious produce.
Furthermore, Azumino has become a virtual 'mecca' for art lovers around the world through the incredible number of museums and galleries that make up what has become known as the 'Azumino Art Line.' Famous Japanese artists Takahashi Setsuro, Chihiro Iwasaki and Ogiwara Rokuzan all have works showcased throughout the Azumino Art Line respectively, while international artists such as Jean Jansem also have collections that can be viewed.
Breathtaking nature, exhilarating mountains and unsurpassed culture combine to make Azumino a highlight of anyone's visit to Japan!

POINT CLAIRE, QUEBEC, CANADA/OLD LYME, CONNECTICUT, USA: Sennheiser has signed an exclusive distribution agreement for North America with K-Array, a PA loudspeaker and amplifier manufacturer based in Florence, Italy. K-Array's light and intelligible speaker technology is best exemplified by the new KH4 self-powered, two-way, flat panel line array.
K-Array's ultra-compact and powerful flagship KH4 delivers consistent, high-quality audio in long throw applications. Weighing less than 104 lbs. and measuring 44 inches wide by 24 inches high and just 6.3 inches deep, the system can produce 145 dB SPL. The vertical coverage pattern is variable between seven and thirty-seven degrees, with a 120-degree horizontal coverage pattern. The KS4 self-powered, dipole subwoofer is just 6.3 inches in depth and weighs 82 lbs. An internal DSP module controls the KH4 mid/high pack and the KS4 subwoofer. The speakers may be computer controlled remotely using dedicated PC software.
Vaino Gennaro, business director for live sound products at Sennheiser Canada says, "We are excited to bring this innovative technology to North America. The technology, design, and sound quality of K-Array have generated a big buzz in Europe and the Middle East. The depth of the line and the crossover into various markets makes K-Array an extremely attractive brand. It will change the production standards of the live entertainment industry."
Sennheiser Electronic Corporation, located in The United States is thrilled to add K-array to their portfolio. Dawn Birr, SEC's product manager for K-array says, "K-array is lighter and smaller than traditional speaker arrays.

The space-saving design and performance-to-size ratio offer significant cost savings in production, rigging, transportation and setup for medium to large-scale live performance events."
"We are delighted that Sennheiser is handling the distribution of our products in North America,'" says Alex Tatini, CEO of K-Array. "Sennheiser has a long and illustrious history in the audio industry.

Quoting MrstormX: Thanks for posting this Japanese model. I like how clear and concise it is. |
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 2:55 PM GMT on August 25, 2011
Back in 1938, long before satellites, radar, the hurricane hunters, and the modern weather forecasting system, the great New England hurricane of 1938 roared northwards into Long Island, New York at 60 mph, pushing a storm surge more than 15 feet high to the coast. Hundreds of Americans died in this greatest Northeast U.S. hurricane on record, the only Category 3 storm to hit the Northeast since the 1800s. Since 1938, there have been a number of significant hurricanes in the Northeast--the Great Atlantic hurricane of 1944, Hazel of 1954, Diane of 1955, Donna of 1960, Gloria of 1985, Bob of 1991, and Floyd of 1999--but none of these were as formidable as the great 1938 storm. Today, we have a hurricane over the Bahamas--Hurricane Irene--that threatens to be the Northeast's most dangerous storm since the 1938 hurricane. We've all been watching the computer models, which have been steadily moving their forecast tracks for Irene more to the east--first into Florida, then Georgia, then South Carolina, then North Carolina, then offshore of North Carolina--and it seemed that this storm would do what so many many storms have done in the past, brush the Outer Banks of North Carolina, then head out to sea. Irene will not do that. Irene will likely hit Eastern North Carolina, but the storm is going northwards after that, and may deliver an extremely destructive blow to the mid-Atlantic and New England states. I am most concerned about the storm surge danger to North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and the rest of the New England coast. Irene is capable of inundating portions of the coast under 10 - 15 feet of water, to the highest storm surge depths ever recorded. I strongly recommend that all residents of the mid-Atlantic and New England coast familiarize themselves with their storm surge risk. The best source of that information is the National Hurricane Center's Interactive Storm Surge Risk Map, which allows one to pick a particular Category hurricane and zoom in to see the height above ground level a worst-case storm surge may go. If you prefer static images, use wunderground's Storm Surge Inundation Maps. If these tools indicate you may be at risk, consult your local or state emergency management office to determine if you are in a hurricane evacuation zone. Mass evacuations of low-lying areas along the entire coast of New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia are at least 50% likely to be ordered by Saturday. The threat to the coasts of New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine is less certain, but evacuations may be ordered in those states, as well. Irene is an extremely dangerous storm for an area that has no experience with hurricanes, and I strongly urge you to evacuate from the coast if an evacuation is ordered by local officials. My area of greatest concern is the coast from Ocean City, Maryland, to Atlantic City, New Jersey. It is possible that this stretch of coast will receive a direct hit from a slow-moving Category 2 hurricane hitting during the highest tide of the month, bringing a 10 - 15 foot storm surge.
Figure 1. The scene in Nassau in the Bahamas at daybreak today. Image credit: Wunderblogger Mike Theiss.
Irene a Category 3 over the Bahamas, headed northwest
Hurricane Irene tore through the Bahama Islands overnight, bringing hurricane-force winds, torrential rains, and storm surge flooding to Crooked Island, Long Island, Rum Cay, and Cat Island, which all took a terrific pounding. Eleuthera and Abaco Island will receive the full force of Irene's eyewall today, but the eyewall will miss capital of Nassau. Winds there were sustained at 41 mph, gusting to 66 mph so far this morning, and I expect these winds will rise to 50 - 55 mph later today. Wunderblogger MIke Theiss is in Nassau, and will be sending live updates through the day today. Winds on Grand Bahama Island in Freeport will rise above tropical storm force late Thursday morning, and increase to a peak of 45 - 55 mph late Thursday afternoon. Grand Bahama will also miss the brunt of the storm. Irene is visible on Miami long-range radar, and the outer bands of the hurricane are bringing rain to Southeast Florida this morning.
Irene is currently undergoing an eyewall replacement cycle, where the inner eyewall collapses, and a new outer eyewall forms from a spiral band. During this process, the hurricane may weaken slightly, and it may take the rest of today for a new eyewall to fully form. Satellite imagery shows a lopsided pattern to Irene, with less cloud cover on the storm's southwest side. This is due to upper level winds from the southwest creating about 10 - 20 knots of wind shear along the storm's southwest side. We can hope that the shear will be strong enough to inject some dry air into the core of Irene and significantly weaken it today, but I put the odds of that happening at only 10%. The most likely scenario is that Irene will complete its eyewall replacement cycle later today or on Friday, then begin intensifying again. Wind shear is expected to stay moderate, 10 - 20 knots, for the next three days, ocean temperatures are a very warm 29°C, and Irene has an upper-level high pressure system on top of it, to aid upper-level outflow. None of our intensity forecast models show Irene growing to Category 4 strength, though the last 4 runs of the ECMWF global model--our best model for forecasting track--have intensified Irene to a Category 4 hurricane with a 912 - 920 mb pressure as it crosses over Eastern North Carolina.
Track forecast for Irene
The models have edged their tracks westwards in the last cycle of runs, and there are no longer any models suggesting that Irene will miss hitting the U.S. The threat to eastern North Carolina has increased, with several of our top models now suggesting a landfall slightly west of the Outer Banks is likely, near Morehead City. After making landfall on the North Carolina coast Saturday afternoon or evening, Irene is likely to continue almost due north, bringing hurricane conditions to the entire mid-Atlantic coast, from North Carolina to Long Island, New York. This makes for a difficult forecast, since a slight change in Irene's track will make a huge difference in where hurricane conditions will be felt. If Irene stays inland over eastern North Carolina, like the ECMWF and GFDL models are predicting, this will knock down the storm's strength enough so that it may no longer be a hurricane once it reaches New Jersey. On the other hand, if Irene grazes the Outer Banks and continues northwards into New Jersey, like the GFS model is predicting, this could easily be a Category 2 hurricane for New Jersey and Category 1 hurricane for New York City. A more easterly track into Long Island would likely mean a Category 2 landfall there.
Category 2 landfalls may not sound that significant, since Hurricane Bob of 1991 made landfall over Rhode Island as a Category 2, and did only $1.5 billion in damage (1991 dollars), killing 17. But Irene is a far larger and more dangerous storm than Bob. The latest wind analysis from NOAA/HRD puts Irene's storm surge danger at 4.8 on a scale of 0 to 6, equivalent to a borderline Category 3 or 4 hurricane's storm surge. Bob had a much lower surge potential, due to its smaller size, and the fact it was moving at 32 mph when it hit land. Irene will be moving much slower, near 18 mph, which will give it more time to pile up a big storm surge. The slower motion also means Irene's surge will last longer, and be more likely to be around during high tide. Sunday is a new moon, and tides will be at their highest levels of the month during Sunday night's high tide cycle. Tides at The Battery in New York City (Figure 3) will be a full foot higher than they were during the middle of August. Irene will expand in size as it heads north, and we should expect its storm surge to be one full Saffir-Simpson Category higher than the winds would suggest.
Figure 2. Predicted tides for the south shore of New York City's Manhattan Island at The Battery for Sunday, August 28 and Monday, August 29. High tide is near 8pm EDT Sunday night. Tidal range between low and high tide is 6 feet on Sunday, the highest range so far this month. A storm surge of 10 feet would thus be 10 feet above Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW, the lowest tide of the year), but 16 feet over this mark if it came at high tide. Image credit: NOAA Tides and Currents.
Irene's storm surge potentially extremely dangerous for the mid-Atlantic coast
Irene's large size, slow motion, arrival at high tide, and Category 3 strength at landfall in North Carolina will likely drive a storm surge of 8 - 10 feet into the heads of bays in Pamlico Sound, and 3 - 6 feet in Albemarle Sound. As the storm progresses northwards, potential storm surge heights grow due to the shape of the coast and depth of the ocean, though the storm will be weakening. If Irene is a Category 1 storm as it crosses into Virginia, it can send a storm surge of 4 - 8 feet into Chesapeake Bay and Norfolk. I give a 50% chance that the surge from Irene in those locations will exceed the record surges observed in 2003 during Hurricane Isabel. The region I am most concerned about, though, is the stretch of coast running from southern Maryland to Central New Jersey, including Delaware and the cities of Ocean City and Atlantic City. A Category 1 hurricane can bring a storm surge of 5 - 9 feet here. Irene's large size, slow movement, and arrival at the highest tide of the month could easily bring a surge one Category higher than the storm's winds might suggest, resulting in a Category 2 type inundation along the coast, near 10 - 15 feet. This portion of the coast has no hurricane experience, and loss of life could be heavy if evacuation orders are not heeded. I give a 30% chance that the storm surge from Irene will bring water depths in excess of 10 feet to the coasts of Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey.
Figure 3. The height above ground that a mid-strength Category 2 hurricane with 100 mph winds would push a storm surge along the Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey coasts in a worst-case scenario. The image was generated using the primary computer model used by the National Hurricane Center (NHC) to forecast storm surge--the Sea, Lake, and Overland Surge from Hurricanes (SLOSH) model. The accuracy of the SLOSH model is advertised as plus or minus 20%. This "Maximum Water Depth" image shows the water depth at each grid cell of the SLOSH domain. Thus, if you are inland at an elevation of ten feet above mean sea level, and the combined storm surge and tide (the "storm tide") is fifteen feet at your location, the water depth image will show five feet of inundation. This Maximum of the "Maximum Envelope of Waters" (MOM) image was generated for high tide and is a composite of the maximum storm surge found for dozens of individual runs of different Category 2 storms with different tracks. Thus, no single storm will be able to cause the level of flooding depicted in this SLOSH storm surge image. Consult our Storm Surge Inundation Maps page for more storm surge images of the mid-Atlantic coast.
Figure 4. The height above ground that a mid-strength Category 2 hurricane with 100 mph winds would push a storm surge along the New Jersey coast in a worst-case scenario. Water depths could reach 6 - 8 feet above ground level in Ocean City and Atlantic City, and up to 16 feet along less populated sections of the coast.
Irene's storm surge may flood New York City's subway system
The floodwalls protecting Manhattan are only five feet above mean sea level. During the December 12, 1992 Nor'easter, powerful winds from the 990 mb storm drove an 8-foot storm surge into the Battery Park on the south end of Manhattan. The ocean poured over the city's seawall for several hours, flooding the NYC subway and the Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation (PATH) train systems in Hoboken New Jersey. FDR Drive in lower Manhattan was flooded with 4 feet of water, which stranded more than 50 cars and required scuba divers to rescue some of the drivers. Mass transit between New Jersey and New York was down for ten days, and the storm did hundreds of millions in damage to the city. Tropical Storm Floyd of 1999 generated a storm surge just over 3 feet at the Battery, but the surge came at low tide, and did not flood Manhattan. The highest water level recorded at the Battery in the past century came in September 1960 during Hurricane Donna, which brought a storm surge of 8.36 feet to the Battery and flooded lower Manhattan to West and Cortland Streets. However, the highest storm surge on record in New York City occurred during the September 3, 1821 hurricane, the only hurricane ever to make a direct hit on the city. The water rose 13 feet in just one hour at the Battery, and flooded lower Manhattan as far north as Canal Street, an area that now has the nation's financial center. The total surge is unknown from this greatest New York City hurricane, which was probably a Category 2 storm with 110 mph winds. NOAA's SLOSH model predicts that a mid-strength Category 2 hurricane with 100-mph winds could drive a 15 - 20 foot storm surge to Manhattan, Queens, Kings, and up the Hudson River. JFK airport could be swamped, southern Manhattan would flood north to Canal Street, and a surge traveling westwards down Long Island Sound might breach the sea walls that protect La Guardia Airport. Many of the power plants that supply the city with electricity might be knocked out, or their docks to supply them with fuel destroyed. The more likely case of a Category 1 hurricane hitting at high tide would still be plenty dangerous, with waters reaching 8 - 12 feet above ground level in Lower Manhattan. Given the spread in the models, I predict a 20% chance that New York City will experience a storm surge in excess of 8 feet that will over-top the flood walls in Manhattan and flood the subway system. This would most likely occur near 8 pm Sunday night, when high tide will occur and Irene should be near its point of closest approach. Such a storm surge could occur even if Irene weakens to a tropical storm on its closest approach to New York City.

Figure 6. Flooded runways at New York's La Guardia Airport after the November 25, 1950 Nor'easter breached the dikes guarding the airport. Sustained easterly winds of up to 62 mph hit the airport, pushing a large storm surge up Long Island Sound. The storm's central pressure bottomed out at 978 mb. Image credit: Queens Borough Public Library, Long Island Division.
The rest of New England
The entire New England coast is at high danger of receiving its highest storm surge in the past 50 years from Irene, though the exact locations of most danger remain unclear. If North Carolina takes a bullet for us and reduces Irene below hurricane strength before the storm reaches New England, the surge will probably not cause major destruction. But if Irene misses North Carolina and arrives along the New England coast as a hurricane, the storm surge is likely to cause significant damage. I urge everyone along the coast to familiarize themselves with their storm surge risk and be prepared to evacuate should an evacuation order be issued.
For those of you wanting to know your odds of receiving hurricane force or tropical storm force winds, I recommend the NHC wind probability product.
Wunderground has detailed storm surge maps for the U.S. coast.
The National Hurricane Center's Interactive Storm Surge RIsk Map, which allows one to pick a particular Category hurricane and zoom in, is a good source of storm surge risk information.
Wunderblogger Mike Theiss is in Nassau, and will be sending live updates through the day today.
Landstrike is an entertaining fictional account of a Category 4 hurricane hitting New York City.
Elsewhere in the tropics
Tropical Depression Ten in the far Eastern Atlantic will not be a threat to any land areas over the next seven days, and will probably move too far north to ever be a threat to land.
Portlight mobilizes for Irene
The Bahamas have been hit hard by Irene, and unfortunately, it appears that the Northeast U.S. may have its share of hurricane victims before Irene finally dissipates. My favorite disaster relief charity, Portlight.org, is mobilizing to help, and is sending out their relief trailer and crew to the likely U.S. landfall point. Check out this blog to see what they're up to; donations are always needed.

Quoting BobinTampa: He did during Ike... and saved some lives. |
Quoting MrstormX: What model is that? |
Looking better then earlier. |

Quoting SCwannabe: LOL! |
Holy moley: SFMR: 123 knots* (~ 141.4 mph*) Sure, it's a suspect reading. But still, we haven't seen winds like that at all. If that's even close to right, she'll be a strong Cat 3 in the 5pm. |
Quoting MrstormX: just SW of little abaco island |
Quoting VAbeachhurricanes: Whereabouts in YC? I lived in Hampton for Isabel. Dare Peninsula now...gonna be a wild ride, i'm thinking. I think this 5pm update is gonna be interesting; new track, maybe a watch issued... |
Quoting tiggeriffic: It's moot not mute and this is a place to: a) get Dr. Masters take on the tropics, and b) discuss the tropics amongst ourselves. It is NOT a place to get evacuation advice. Plain and simple. If local authorities were telling you to evacuate but Levi (one of our more knowledgeable commenters) was saying you'll be fine where you are, what would you do? I think the world of Levi, but I'm getting out of dodge. |
look what recon found OH MY SFMR Peak (10s Avg.) Sfc. Wind 140 knots* (~ 161.0 mph*) Estimated Surface Wind (30 sec. Avg.) Using Estimated Reduction Factor 137.8 knots* (~ 158.5 mph*) Category Five Hurricane |
Quoting 900MB: Diurnal Cycles, the daily maximum temperature generally occurs between the hours of 2 P.M. and 5 P.M. and then continually decreases until sunrise the next day. |
Can anyone provide info about model verification? The GFDL is so much farther west than any of the other models. Does it typically do well with these storms? I've seen people say that the ECMWF has been the most accurate in recent years and it's a bit more toward the west, but not anywhere near the GFDL. What do you think the GFDL might be responding to that the others aren't? |
Quoting tampahurricane:Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, and Morehead City are kinda low... not protected by storm surge very well. I don't know about area south of these cities. |
It seems like the blog has a case of the giggles. Nervous laughter? I would love to see some facts about Irene right now because this seems to be a critical time in determining if she will stay on track. I'm not a weather expert and I can't even tell when some of you are kidding or not. I do know that I am watching the latitude and longitude to determine how this is going. Thanks for all your great posts and images so I can continue to learn. Be safe. |
Quoting presslord: She can't...it's like a mouse and a snake... |
CAPE HATTERS is a definite no. I know they would be under water. |
Updated Hurricane Local Statement for IRENE from NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC Excerpt: .SITUATION OVERVIEW... AS MAJOR HURRICANE IRENE APPROACHES THE AREA...EXPECT AN INCREASING THREAT OF TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL. LARGE WAVES AND STRONG RIP CURRENTS WILL DEVELOP WELL AHEAD OF THE HURRICANE...WITH CONDITIONS DETERIORATING ON FRIDAY. THE WORST CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED LATE FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON WHEN WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN AND TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS WILL OCCUR. A GENERAL CONCERN SHOULD BE FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGING WINDS AND LOCALIZED FLOODING SOMEWHERE WITHIN SOUTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA AND NORTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA. REMEMBER...WHEN MAKING DECISIONS KEEP IN MIND THAT IRENE IS A VERY LARGE HURRICANE...SO SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS ARE LIKELY REGARDLESS OF THE EXACT TRACK IT TAKES. |
Quoting Dragod66: really? |
Has anyone heard from Oz lately. Is he covering Irene? |
Quoting Floodman: there are more than a few people who are curious about the anomalies with mimic microwave loop. I mean...the program exists, weather (pun) or not you believe in conspiracy. Why do i feel like mel gibson all of a sudden? We may have just seen the worst we will see out of Irene in SWFL....a small band 5 mins of rain :( or :) depending on your outlook. |
Quoting SCwannabe: HAHAHAHAHA... THAT MADE ME LAUGH SO DARN LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
161 mph surface winds on recon? |
Quoting TropicalXprt: That's obviously false. Water is too shallow and the shark's fin would be visible above water, plus... it would have made news here. Though there were caimans wandering a community. |

Why would Republicans want to "brace for battle"? If Kagan were not to be confirmed, then the number 2 pick might be more "liberal"? Kagan has no scandals, she is very smart, and the president wants her. What else matters? Congress is just looking for free TV time.
"the recurring question about what to make of Kagan's lack of judicial experience"
hey, we now live in Obama world where experience does not matter -- it worked for Obama's run for President, and the only thing that now matters is politically correct thinking and being a member of a minority group.
sara palin keeps saying, even today, that obama lacks experience and is a community organizer. um, he's president. i think it's funny that the same people that throw the word experience around support palin, who truly does lack experience. she quit the only job where should could get experience (being governor) to go on a book tour and host a show on Fox. these arguments are such a joke.
several repub senators, like cornyn and hutchinson, said that not having judicial experience is a good thing. now that kagan is nominated, it's a bad thing. more blowhards blowing in the wind....
I am in favor of Kagan and I am not a member of a minority group. I've been married for 27 years and am not a lesbian. I'm not "politically correct" either or I would not have been imprisoned by USDOJ for my truthful presentations in civil court matters. I support Kagan because I believe her legal writings to be correct such as the government cannot use first amendment restrictions that discriminate on the basis of who is speaking or the content of truthful non criminal speech and that when people are imprisoned by USDOJ without a statutory basis as I was, they have recourse under the APA. (I was imprisoned by USDOJ for 5 months without a criminal charge, arraignment or bail hearing for the stated purpose of forcing me to withdraw a lawsuit I filed.)
In recent years all the S.C. nominees to the best of my knowledge have been former judges. To the best of my knowledge, the current S.C. justices all believe that pro se litigants are not protected by the Constitution and can be arbitrarily fined and imprisoned without a statutory basis. see http://www.rightscase.com I think that the existing judges are much too much concerned with protecting their colleagues and that they are blinded by hatred of pro se litigants. I know that Kagan likes to show off her brains but I think she will extend the law to those who aren't as smart and educated as she is.
"um, he's president"
. . . not really, he just plays one on tv
Kagan must have head butted Sessions, he came out of the meeting so angry. Probably, he went in underestimating her. that seems like not a good thing to do where Kagan is concerned.

The First Amendment rights of judges are a hot topic these days.
Plaintiffs' lawyers dodged a bullet last year when the U.S. Supreme Court spared a quarter-century-old precedent that had served as the legal linchpin of the modern investor class-action case. Despite that win, a new report suggests that securities class actions have lost some of their firepower.
In a week in which images of Prophet Muhammad were connected to acts of terror and defiant expressions of freedom, a sculpture of the prophet of Islam inside the U.S. Supreme Court has drawn little notice.
Alan Dershowitz has vowed to slap a defamation suit against the two lawyers who claimed in a court document that Florida financier Jeffrey Epstein arranged sexual liaisons for him with an underage prostitute. Those lawyers have beaten him to the punch.
The salacious allegations against Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz that surfaced in a federal lawsuit involving convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have generated international attention. Drawing less coverage is the lawsuit itself -- a case with the potential to expand the rights of crime victims during federal investigations.

Boro seek to reassure Alves
03 Dec 2008 - 09:05:20
Middlesbrough manager Gareth Southgate has urged Afonso Alves to keep the faith as he bids to end a barren spell in front of goal.
The club transfer record £12million Brazilian has netted just three goals in 16 appearances for the Teessiders this season.
But Southgate believes the striker will soon be rewarded for his recent hard-working displays.
He said: "He wants it to happen and we're desperate for it to happen for him.
"He has got to keep practising on the training ground, get into good habits and things will happen for him."
Alves passed up chances to win last weekend's goalless derby with Newcastle United, but the Boro boss is not unduly concerned about his form.
The former Heerenveen striker has failed to find the net in his last five games.
"He's desperate to do well and he's desperate to score goals, but he has to continue doing the things he did on Saturday," added Southgate.
