If you're looking for anime similar to Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, you might like these titles. All recommendations are made by Anime-Planet users like you!
Kaede is a devoted high school student who lives with her adopted brother Rin. She holds a quiet confidence that one day, when Rin finally starts showing interest in sex, he will make the obvious choice and turn to his loving sister. But what Kaede wasn't counting on was the lords of heaven and hell coming to Earth, wanting Rin to mate with their nubile daughters! Rin, like any teenager would, takes full advantage of his newly acquired harem; but how long can he keep up his carefree, boxed-lunches-on-the-rooftop lifestyle, as the horde of girls on his tail grows?
Very powerful drama and if you liked Shuffle and want an anime up to the same par. Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (KGNE) will not dissapoint. KGNE offers the same visual quality as Shuffle and similarly has a boy who must make a choice between girls. The role of health in one of the plays a part as too as it also does in Shuffle. Though it doesn't have any fantasy elements or comedy as Shuffle does you will not be dissapointed to follow up shuffle with KGNE.
If you really loved Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, I think you'd love Shuffle! even more. Both are about a guy that needs to make a decision between numerous girls that are all in love with him. In then end, the guy makes the "right" choice but has to deal with many emotional and physical hardships along the way. Shuffle! has a very unique feel about it and will not cease in making you laugh and gasp.
Shuffle! and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien are both centered around the topic love. Shuffle! touches the subject at first from a very comedian side with a harem, but later on it changes to a tragic love story which would never gues by the first half of the anime. On the other hand Kimi ga Nozomu Eien doesn't lose any time and goes directly from the second episode to the dramatic love.
In Kimi ga Nozomu Eien and Shuffle the same dramatic quality is portrayed in each and the main guy has to make a choice between the girls in his life. Kimi ga Nozomu Eien does not have the fantasy elements that Shuffle has, however, there the same power of romance in both.
In a high school setting, there are many people whose stories must be told: Hiro, an aspiring manga artist whose view of the world is "missing a certain color," according to himself; his childhood friend Kei, who is vying for his attention; Kyosuke, a photographer and cameraman who seeks to capture true emotion in his work; the ever-cheerful Miyako, who meets Hiro by chance and immediately becomes attached to him; the gentle Renji, unsure of his aspirations to become a novelist; and Kei's mysterious and quiet sister Chihiro, who seems to be a different person every day. As time passes and they interact with one another more, their paths increasingly intertwine as shades of regrettable pasts emerge.
The plots of these two anime are very different, but there are some key similarities. For instance, one of the main female protagonists suffers a memory defect that threatens her relationships with the people around her.
They're both character dramas, which can get pretty heavy and dark. There isn't a lot of comedy, but if you're into drama... you'd probably enjoy either series.
Both anime feature a somewhat sad or even tragic love story. But to be clear: Kimi ga Nozomu Eien is better at it and trys to move you tears in almoast every episode. ef on the side has its own tragic moments but they are manageable. ef also has a very unique way of visualising feelings and situations of the characters and gives you the feeling that you are watching visual art at some points. The love story itself is in both animes one of the best in its genre.
Drama and hard choices. These are the key-words for these two animes. Ef and KGNE portray the concept of 'love' through the eyes of different couples and love triangles. They are about the choices that have to be made in order to attain happiness at the cost of someone else's sorrow and exploit love to a very high depth. Also, they show the importance of one's time and memories as without them life can be very difficult. While they both show some very sad scenes, they are still so very pleasant to watch and if you liked one, you should like the other.
Both stories are full of romance as well as pain and sufferring. Both series are intended for mature audiences.
Long ago, young Meiko Honma tragically died and her tight-knit group of friends, shaken by the event, drifted apart. Now, ten years later, Meiko has re-appeared as a ghost that only Jinta, the former leader of the gang and an avid shut-in, can see. All she desires is for Jinta to fulfill her final wish so that she can move on to the afterlife, but with no memory of what it was, it's up to the teenager to gather his former friends and discover what will allow his beloved friend to rest in peace. With so many feelings left unsaid, can this group work out their strife and help the ghost of the girl they once adored?
Although the two don't share as much a likeness in art-style as their general themes, a catastrophic event that ties all those related from completely moving on (or at all) and friendship, both are sure to bring the similar teary-eyed moments or emotional drama required of a great "slice of life" anime. In the interest of not spoiling too much, Anohana and Kiminozo both provide viewers with the "conflict of interests" scenarios in anime that dare to ask morally difficult questions. They are both tied to a reality we're familliar with; those we like/love, and choosing between them, one's future, and/or one's social commitments. Moreover, if you like to see before and after stories, great flashbacks, chances to analyze character development, make character comparisons, and like all great slice of life anime, recall similar experiences in your own life you may, or may not, have wanted to have done differently, these two provide those criteria.
Ano Hana and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien are both heavy emotional dramas that delve into themes such as love, loss, memory, and living with it all. I must admit, both shows were very powerful for me, and looking back, they had such a great effect on me for similar reasons. I'm sure if you're a fan of one, you'll love the other.
KgNE ranges much further on the dramatic scale and has fewer 'light-hearted' moments, but they are similar in overall plot. A tragedy occurs to one of the members of a group of friends, which causes the group to split. The people within the group grow and change, and then... the person who left the group because of the tragedy randomly comes back.In AnoHana the 'coming back' was less devestating for the group and served as a 'social glue,' but in KgNE, the 'coming back' is almost as devastating as her leaving. While AnoHana is more of a story about friendships, KgNE is a dramatic love story. However, if you liked the general plot, you'll probably like one as well as the other.
AnoHana and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien / Rumbling Hearts are grounded in the idea of a tragedy that happens to a member of a group of childhood friends, and how they move on after that. In each case, most survivors of the group have made a mess of their lives, and the reappearance of the victim (Menma's ghost versus the post-coma Haruka) forces the characters to come to terms with their guilt and the decisions they've made. There's a tonal difference, with Anohana mixing a supernatural twist and somewhat slice-of-life pace, while Rumbling Hearts is firmly grounded in the real world and lays on the angst heavily (it's also worth noting that the animation in Anohana is absolutely lovely, while Rumbling Hearts is utterly bare-bones). Of the two, I kind of prefer the seriouness of Rumbling Hearts and its acceptance of its highly-flawed characters, who are put in no-win situations where every option involves hurting someone. But don't get me wrong, they're both great. If you can withstand the feels, watch 'em both.
There is nothing more sad and pleasant than love in its various forms, and a group of high school students will discover them in this melancholy series. The focus is on Kanzaki Kyoichi, an artist and a dreamer at heart, and Nitta Chiharu, a track star and a childhood friend of Kyoichi's. From spring to summer to fall to winter, love will grow and fade, and grow again

If you enjoyed the realistic aspect of relationships in KgNE, you'll appreciate the more light hearted and varied series Boys Be. Wonderful animation, and fantastic tales of a group of friends who experience change and wonder in new relationships, themselves, and life in general.
Both Boys Be and KgNE have a realistic approach to relationships, romance and the problems associated with them. KgNE is rather dramatic and focusses on a single (triangle) relation, while Boys Be covers several relations and first romantic experiences. However the beauty of both anime is that as the episodes pass, the characters really grow and become more mature in their relations and the choices that must be made. It's a process of try and learn for all characters involved and the road is often a bumpy one. For sheer realism alone these two are must-see anime for any romance fan. Note that KgNE is rather dramatic (and sometimes depressing) as it focusses more on the negative side, while Boys Be takes a lighter, more optimistic yet serious approach.
the same reason as my reccomendation for Love Hina, "Atmospere" however, boys be has got one more detail which makes it even more alike KGNE than Love Hina: it's melancholic genre.it's the same as KGNE.
Nagamine is a young high school student who lives a fairly typical teenage life: hanging out with friends, attending class, and falling in love with a wonderful boy. But when she enlists in the galactic army, who is desperate for candidates to fight an alien war, she finds herself drifting farther away from her first love, Noboru. In the depths of space, where a simple email takes eight years to be delivered, will their love truly flourish, or simply fade away?

Hoshi no Koe and KgNE are both heartbreaking dramas about romance, and the people ensnared in it. In addition, both are surprisingly "real", with the relationships between the characters, unlike many airheaded school dramas.
Like Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, Hoshi no Koe is about young lovers torn apart by fate, and how real feelings for another person may fade with time, but never really disappear.
On the surface, Hoshi no Koe's premise seems simple. It centers mainly on unfair, unrequitted romance, much like Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. However, Hoshi no Koe adds an unique perspective on this frequently used theme. In this anime's sci-fi future, Nagamine gets drafted away by the galactic army, suddenly ending her relationship with her boyfriend. Her only means of communicating with him is by e-mail, and the further away she gets from earth, the longer it takes for her messages to be delivered. Ultimately, she gets so far away from Earth that it takes years just to deliver a simple e-mail message. Hoshi no Koe offers a realistic, yet tragic stance on how how far two lovers will take their long distance relationship. If you like the realism in Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, you'll definitely love Hoshi no Koe.

(this article contains HUGE SPOILERS – you have been warned)
It is evident immediately upon starting Majora's Mask that this game is nothing like any other Zelda game. The last Nintendo 64 Zelda, Ocarina of Time, opened with a calm horseback ride with pleasant music. Yet here, after the eponymous mask itself spins onscreen, the player is shown a curious character known as the Happy Mask Salesman holding the mask aloft much like Link would when he finds a treasure – but rather than play the familiar Find Item tune, you hear the man oddly chuckle. The introductory video to the game's locale then begins with cheery music, showing a typical day in Clock Town, its residents going about their business. Once the time of day in the video changes to night, however, the player is shown the Skull Kid, the main enemy, wearing Majora's Mask, and the music plays a snippet of the disturbing Skull Kid's Theme while the camera pans out further to reveal a deranged looking moon. It is at this point that the game's title appears, to drive the point home that this game is going to be unsettling.
Once a file is created and the game proper is started, the opening video lays out the back story. Link has become a legend in Hyrule, and is in search of a "beloved and invaluable friend" – Navi, apparently, judging by the fairy sound that is heard immediately after that text appears on screen. Link is then shown for the first time, riding Epona through a foggy forest (the Lost Woods, perhaps? It is never made entirely clear). He appears to have been riding for a long time, as he is slumped in his saddle and generally looks tired. Epona stops and Link looks around, presumably to try and get his bearings, when two fairies startle Epona who knocks Link off her back. The Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask then appears out of thin air and tells the fairies they did great, and wonders if Link "has anything good on him." The Skull Kid then goes up to an unconscious Link and robs him of the Ocarina of Time, and attempts to play it. While he does that, the personality of the two fairies are first revealed. The purple fairy, Tael, has a personality very similar to Navi from Ocarina of Time – positive, curious, and nice, whereas Tatl seems to be the opposite – negative, impatient, and kind of a bitch. At this point, if the player tries to guess which of these fairies will be journeying with them, it is safe to think that most of them probably assume the upbeat Tael will be coming. But as the player will soon discover, the unsettling nature of this game necessitates that it will of course be Tatl.
So Link wakes up and attempts to catch the Skull Kid, but fails – the Skull Kid steals Epona and rides off, but Link is able to grab one of Epona's legs. Link falls off in as the Skull Kid rides into a door in a tree stump, and the player is given control of Link for the first time. Link follows the Skull Kid into the doorway, and falls down a deep dark hole. He lands on a pink flower, and the Skull Kid, along with the two fairies, is floating before him. It laughs, and tells Link that he got rid of his "stupid horse" – forcing the player to ask, "Did he kill Epona?!" Then, he makes fun of Link (and by extension, the player) for being sad at this notion – "Aw, boo hoo – why the sad face? I just thought I'd have a little fun with you." Then, the Skull Kid starts to do something to Link, and as he does so, it appears Link is in great pain. Then a very blurry sort of dream sequence is shown where Link is surrounded and chased by Deku scrubs. When Link comes to, he has been transformed into a morose-looking Deku scrub. This scene parallels the scene in Ocarina of Time in which Link awakens to find himself to be seven years older – the difference this time (besides the end result of the transformation, of course) is the tone. In Ocarina of Time, when the player first discovers they have aged and are now an adult, the player is meant to feel empowered and excited to try out the older Link's abilities – here, the player feels confusion and is probably put off by this transformation. This is a great example of the way Majora's Mask subverts expectations of the Zelda series. The Skull Kid leaves, and Tatl hits Link, preventing him from giving chase. The door slams shut, and Link and Tatl are left in the room. Tatl begins yelling at Link, blaming him for being separated from Tael and the Skull Kid, and tells Link to open the door for her.
Tatl is an important character to analyze. Remember, the beginning of Link's journey was to find his upbeat fairy partner from Ocarina of Time, Navi. Link finds a fairy, but again, rather than the happy, energetic, nice one, he gets the opposite – a mean, impatient bitch of a partner, who berates everyone she talks through throughout the game (even her brother, the fairy Tael). One of the most famous lines of dialogue from the game is when she literally tells a NPC "Oh my. I pity you." It's interesting to note that Tatl and Midna from Twilight Princess share many personality quirks, although admittedly, Midna is much more fleshed out in her game (out of necessity, really – Midna is much more important to the story of her game than Tatl is to hers). So, the way the fairy treats the player in Majora's Mask is another subversion of the player's expectations of the Zelda series.
So, after learning to fly using the pink Deku Flowers, Link goes through a twisty hallway similar to the one in the Forest Temple in Ocarina of Time, and finds himself in Termina. Note the name; throw an L at the end and you've got Terminal – doesn't imply a very cheery place, does it? Link starts out in Clock Town, named for the giant clock in its center. Once Link exits the clock tower, the ever-ticking clock is first shown at the bottom of the screen. This is the central conceit of the game: Link has three in-game days to complete his adventure, which translate to about a half hour of real time to a day of game time. If he doesn't save Termina within the three day period, the giant moon shown in the game's title screen crashes into Termina and, well, terminates it. Of course, since Link gets his Ocarina of Time back, this means that every time he plays his the Song of Time, he goes back to the beginning of the first day – while only keeping key items he collected throughout that particular three-day period. All events revert to their original state when he goes back in time. This means that any sidequests he undertakes will reset, along with any dungeon progress he has made that doesn't include getting the dungeon item or beating the dungeon boss (dungeon maps, compasses, small keys, and boss keys all disappear when the three day period starts over, and all unlocked doors become locked again, etc.).
Since Majora's Mask was released for the Nintendo 64 two years after Ocarina of Time, Nintendo opted to reuse assets from Ocarina. At first glance, this would seem to be a lazy, cost-cutting measure on Nintendo's part – and while it may be true that Nintendo was trying to save money, they certainly justify it in game. The NPCs from Hyrule are all in Termina, but they all play new roles here – none of the characters (except for, possibly, the Skull Kid) recognize Link from his last adventure. So the Cucco Lady from Kakariko is now the proprietor of the Stock Pot Inn, Talon is now the bartender at the Milk Bar in Clock Town, Koume and Kotake (who were actually bosses from Ocarina) now run businesses in the Southern Swamp, and there are plenty more. Of course, none of these characters are actually FROM Hyrule; they just look like the characters Link saw in his last adventure. So why bring this up? Because whenever the player sees a familiar character, they are usually doing something that they would not have been doing in Ocarina – like Koume selling potions to Link, for example – which is another case of subverted expectations.
So what does Link have to do in this land called Termina? Well, to stop the moon from crashing, he has to go to the dungeons in the four cardinal directions and awaken the gods that are imprisoned in them. That's right – there are only four dungeons in Majora's Mask, and while they are fantastic dungeons, it should be noted that Majora isn't a particularly long Zelda game. To get to all these dungeons, though, Link has to obtain different masks to transform into different races – he starts with the Deku Mask, and then gets the Goron Mask and the Zora Mask. Each of these races give Link different powers, and none of them use Link's sword to attack. The Deku can shoot bubbles which can cause a little damage, and it can also spin attack to hit enemies, in addition to being able to fly when using a Deku Flower. Goron Link can roll into a ball and, using magic power, make spikes jut out from his body and start rolling at high speeds to crash into enemies and fly off jumps. Zora Link can swim at high speeds and generate an energy shield, while also being able to use two of his fins like boomerangs.
Obtaining these masks, however, is sad and unsettling every time. The Deku Mask is obtained when Link is transformed into a Deku at the beginning of the game, and it initially seems as though that's it – but before he reaches Termina, Link goes past a very sad looking tree. During the ending credits, a character known as the Deku Butler is seen in front of this tree, crying – implying that this tree is his son, and that his son died so Link could transform into the Deku. When Link obtains the Goron mask, it is after hearing the sad tale of the dead Goron hero, Darmani, who died trying to save his people. Darmani was not able to stop Goron Village from freezing over, and his regrets carry over to his death – he ceases to be a ghost so Link can turn into him and hopefully put an end to his pain. Link finds a dying Zora floating in the Great Bay and pushes him to shore, where he tells Link his story, how he was trying to save his girlfriend's Zora eggs, but couldn't due to being unable to traverse the now extremely cloudy sea. Link watches him die after hearing his story. He receives the Zora mask, and then proceeds to (in what I'm sure is a series first and last) bury the dead body, and erect a rudimentary gravestone. It is surprising how morbid a Zelda game from the year 2000 on the Nintendo 64 is isn't it?
Speaking of morbidity, the most involved sidequest in the game is particularly heart-wrenching. It takes Link the entirety of the three day cycle to complete it. This sidequest involves reuniting the lovers Kafei and Anju. It appears that the Skull Kid transformed Kafei into a child and later, a thief stole his wedding mask, and Kafei goes into hiding because he promised Anju he would meet her on the day of the carnival with the wedding mask in hand. Link first has to spend a day to locate Kafei for Anju, exchange letters and items between the two for a day, then follow Kafei to the thief's hideout on the last day to complete a quick set of puzzles to obtain the lost mask for Kafei. Once this is done, there is literally six in-game hours (which translates to roughly six minutes in real time) before the moon crashes into Termina, and Link must go meet the two characters who finally reunite a mere hour before the moon comes crashing down. What is interesting about this sidequest is that while Link can play the Song of Time and escape certain death, Kafei and Anju cannot. They meet up just to be together when they both die. This is certainly touching, in a way, but again, pretty morbid for a Nintendo game, right?
As the game draws to a close and Link summons the four gods to stop the Skull Kid, the gods prevent the moon from crashing. But Majora's Mask drops the Skull Kid's body like a rag doll and enters the moon's mouth. Link follows the mask into the moon and unexpectedly finds himself in a meadow. It is a huge, sunny, bright green field, populated by butterflies and bright green grass, with a giant tree in the middle on top of a slight hill. Around the tree are running four kids, each wearing one of the four masks Link obtained in the dungeons. When Link talks to them, they tell them they want to play hide and seek and teleport Link to a small dungeon with puzzles based on each of Link's forms. When they have all been found, the last kid teleports Link to the last boss.
Majora's Mask itself is fought in a flamboyant rainbow colored room. It has three forms – Majora's Mask, Majora's Incarnation, and Majora's Wrath. Majora's Mask floats around the room and tries to spin into Link. Majora's Incarnation flamboyantly dances around the room while making strange, childlike noises. Majora's Wrath tries to whip Link to death. Each form is fairly easy, both with the ultimate Fierce Deity Mask (obtained by finding all the other masks in the game) and without. When Link finishes off Majora's Wrath, the game ends, and the fate of the Termina inhabitants is shown (depending, of course, on how many people the player helps and how many masks they got). For the most part, the fate of the characters of this game end up fairly positive, with the possible exception of two: the Deku Butler mentioned earlier, and Link himself.
Link wakes up outside Clock Town, in Termina Field. He sees the Skull Kid, without Majora's Mask, looking up at the giant gods. The Skull Kid realizes the gods hadn't forgotten about him and begins crying out of shame for the acts he committed. He then asks Link to be his friend. The Happy Mask Salesman has gotten Majora's Mask back, and apparently, the evil left it. He asks Link, "Shouldn't you be heading home, too?" As he walks away, Tatl talks to Link. "Well, both of us have gotten what we were after… So this is where you and I part ways, isn't it? You know… it was kind of fun. Well, it's almost time for the carnival to begin… So, why don't you just leave and go about your business? The rest of us have a carnival to go to." Pretty cold, for what Link and Tatl have been through together. Link gets on Epona, takes one look at yet another fairy friend he must part with, and rides off. To herself, Tatl quietly thanks Link as he rides away. The carnival starts, and the fate of the rest of the Termina characters is shown.
To end the game, the scene showing the Deku Butler crying in front of what is presumably his dead son's body is shown. Then, the scene shifts back to Link. He is back on Epona, back in the forest he started the game in, and he looks tired again. He rides off, and a tree stump is shown with a drawing of Link, the Skull Kid, Tatl and Tael, and the four giants. "The End" appears on screen, along with a brief ocarina solo of Saria's Song from Ocarina of Time – probably to imply that Link is lost again, as Saria's Song is the song of the Lost Woods.
A pattern throughout this article probably became apparent early on – that the Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is a game about subverting expectations. Not just about subverting the expectations of a Zelda game, either, but of video games as a whole. Majora's Mask is proof that video game sequels do not have to be more of the same. That what is familiar can easily become creepy and unsettling. That saving the world can be personal, too. Although they are great games, it's too bad the Zelda games that have come out since Majora's Mask haven't dared to be as unsettling and interesting as Majora's Mask did.

In addition to partnering with local non-profits, we address underserved geographic areas and populations through our own direct service programs. This model allows us to provide more than 100,000 meals per day to those struggling with hunger in the community.
Potential Long Term Impact
Our vision is to end local hunger by ensuring that anyone who needs a meal can get a meal. People cannot thrive on an empty stomach. Nothing else matters when you're hungry.

Afghanistan: A different kind of war
Britain's foreign secretary testifying before a Senate committee. Russian airspace opened to American cargo planes carrying lethal military supplies. High-level consultations with China. Shared border intelligence at the Khyber Pass.
Beijing has billion of dollars of investments in highways, naval ports and energy conduits inside Pakistan, its longtime ally. China's commercial investments in Afghanistan include a large copper mine, as well as related rail and electricity projects. And the president personally raised the Afghanistan issue with China's President Hu Jintao as reflected in a joint communiqué issued after their November summit.
"The broader point is right," House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Howard Berman (D-Calif.) told POLITICO. "Obama will get more votes in the sense that Afghanistan is different than Iraq because the international community is involved. It isn't a phony coalition of the willing."

1990 GMC Jimmy Problems
The fuel pump may fail causing the engine to stall and not restart. Our technicians recommend replacing the fuel filter every 30,000 miles to help prevent undue strain on the fuel pump.
The power door lock actuators may become slow to operate or stop working completely and require replacement.
The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Our technicians tell us that operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct these leaks.

1990 GMC Jimmy Reviews
Have 220 k miles and it still runs like a champ. Have had the Jimmy for the past 50 k miles. No issues whatsoever.
As a whole, the Jimmy V1500 is a great truck. The interior trim, weatherstrips & electrical components are it's weakest features. The 5.7L is a solid, long lasting engine and the TBI fuel system keeps it simple and dependable. This generation truck is not quiet on the road like the new ones, lots of wind noise, it's a truck and it rides like one. Good off-road truck for exploring and camping in...

Corsair Flash Voyager Mini 64GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Review
Flash drives offer us a solution to transfer files to take with us on the go. For the most part, these devices have always had one downfall, especially if you're working on a notebook - and that's size. With notebooks and tablet PCs shrinking each generation, there comes a time when the storage we use with these devices has to shrink down to size as well.
Recently, Corsair announced the availability of a complete range of new flash drives. The Mini, as the name states, is a small form factor USB 3.0 flash drive. Capacities range from 16GB and 32GB models, all the way up to an impressive 64GB model. Compatibility includes Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating system. The Flash Voyager Mini carries a very solid five year warranty.
The Corsair Mini carries a sleek dark brushed metal surface, with logos adorning the sides of the drive. At the top, the key ring is secured straight to the body of the drive.
Of course, the USB 3.0 port is properly colored to denote its capabilities.
Here we have put the Voyager Mini pictured up against a few other pico drives we have tested previously.
One of the lesser-known features of running Microsoft's new operating system Windows 8 is the native capability of USB Attached SCSI or UASP. In benchmarking flash drives, we utilize ATTO Disk Benchmark followed by DiskBench and our custom set of real-world data, and is by far the most important comparison when looking for a flash drive for everyday use.
Recently we have added our very own Price vs. Performance charts for both read and write performance of each drive, for these charts we take the average sequential performance over five runs and divide it by the price per GB. All pricing information is updated before a new drive is added and is taken from certified channel retailers such as Newegg or Amazon.
The Corsair Flash Voyager Mini is factory formatted with the FAT32 file system, insuring compatibility between Windows and Macintosh computers. The usable capacity after formatting is 57.6GB.
ATTO results were promising for the Voyager Mini. Here we see the drive peak at a rate of 79 MB/s read and 20MB/s write.
DiskBench testing threw a slight curve at the Mini, where we find the drive towards the bottom of our chart. Though, it is slightly faster than the Super Talent Pico.
Moving over to price/performance, the Voyager Mini landed itself right behind the PQI i-Mont and ahead of the Super Talent Pico.
While the Corsair Flash Voyager Mini certainly isn't a burner when it comes to performance, it does offer tremendous capacity in a very small form factor. An added bonus to this is the over durability of the unit, being a single piece design.
Touching on the drives performance, where it does offer decent read speeds of 70 MB/s. Unfortunately, most of the work with flash drives is done by writing groups of files to them and that's where we only managed 20 MB/s.
Pricing at this time for the 64GB capacity model is set at $54.99.

Phoenix Suns
Suns Strokes: Suns suffer third-worst defeat in franchise history
Sure, you could read the box score and know who won, but we all know that won't tell you everything that happened in a basketball game. So, we will give you Suns Strokes, providing you with the analysis, quotes and notes from the Suns' 117-77 loss to the Pistons on November 28.
The Good:
The Suns didn't have much go their way Wednesday night.
Luis Scola led the team with 11 points and six rebounds in the loss, which shows just how poorly Phoenix performed.
The Bad:
Detroit handed Phoenix its third-worst loss in franchise history.
The Suns didn't notch an assist for the entire second and most of the third quarters. According to STATS, the last team to go a whole quarter without an assist was the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 13.
Phoenix suffered a complete meltdown in the third quarter, in which the starters made just one shot. The Suns were also called for four technical fouls in the period.
They also totaled 19 turnovers in the loss.
The Suns were behind by as many as 44 points in the fourth quarter.
The loss wasn't the worst in the NBA this season -- that distinction belongs to the Charlotte Bobcats, who lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder 114-69 Monday night.
He Said It:
"There was nothing that we did that you could say was even NCAA quality," head coach Alvin Gentry said. "It was an absolutely horrendous game, and we'll have to do much, much better."
Up Next:
The Suns will continue their six-game road trip on Friday night against the Toronto Raptors. Tip-off is scheduled for 5:00 p.m.

Why are my gel nails still sticky and thicker on one end?
First let's talk about the stickiness issue. Are you using a gel cleanser after curing? Almost all gel products require a cleanser to be used after curing. Too much stickiness is also a sign of not curing the nail long enough or not curing with the required amount of bulb wattage.
To deal with the thickness problem, watch how the customer is placing her hand under the curing light. She may be tipping the hand to one side or the other and causing the gel to pool in one area. One remedy is to have the customer start curing by turning her hand upside down under the light for the first ten to 15 seconds. After 10 to 15 seconds, turn the hands upright and continue curing for the amount of time required for your gel product. Also, during application, use a thin line of gel down the center of the nail and brush it out using one or two strokes. — Kathi Heim, owner of Kathi's Hands & Feet in Richmond Heights, Ohio

RUTH SUNDERLAND: Dangers of divisive UK housing market
There is only one city in the UK where house prices have risen by more than 100 per cent in the past ten years.
London, obviously? Actually, no.
The capital certainly boasts the highest number of 'British' property millionaires, though the majority of them are probably of overseas origin.
But it is in fact Aberdeen that tops the house price growth table over the past decade, thanks to the granite city's oil riches, according to Nationwide research.
The point is that impressions of the housing market can be very misleading. We hear quite a lot about the so-called property millionaires, for example, but this is out of all proportion with the numbers involved.
Surprising: Aberdeen tops the house price growth table over the past decade, according to Nationwide
Only 1.1 per cent of households live in properties worth more than £1million, and the average house price across the country is a much more modest £162,262.
Some areas have been badly blighted, particularly Northern Ireland, which was infected by the property madness that gripped the Republic during the boom years. Prices there have halved since the peak in 2007.
Outside of honey-pots such as London W8 and Aberdeen, which are immune from the economic problems afflicting the rest of the country, the picture seems flat.

Nationwide reckons the price of a typical home fell by 1 per cent last year, reversing an increase of the same size in 2011.
A stagnant market might not seem such a bad place to be, given the depth of the economic crisis.
Ultra-low interest rates and strong employment have spared us the horrors of mass mortgage defaults and repossessions. But the main property indexes are deceptive.
The UK housing market is deeply divisive, socially and geographically. Gulfs in property wealth have grown up between the old and the young; the rich and the average; the mortgage-free (a third of households) and the indebted; and between London and most of the regions. And some very serious underlying risks are lurking below the seemingly calm surface.
One is the vast interest-only mortgage time bomb. Lenders themselves are unsure as to the full extent of the problem but the Financial Services Authority is on red alert and has a report out later this month.
Some 3.6million borrowers have interest-only loans that might more accurately be described as renting, with a side-bet on a rise in the value of the property that now looks like a losing gamble.
The theory is that people should have a plan in place so they can repay the capital at the end of the mortgage term, but it is suspected more than 1million have nothing.
Even those who do have some sort of repayment vehicle set up risk finding it is inadequate, as was the case with the endowment mortgages sold in the 1980s and 1990s.
Billions of pounds worth of these interest-only loans will reach maturity between now and 2020. Many will be in negative equity, so selling the home will still leave a shortfall.
From the lenders' point of view, it is a nightmare bearing all the hallmarks of a new mis-selling scandal.
Rather than forcing repossessions, lenders may well opt to extend loans so homeowners have to carry their mortgages well into retirement or offer equity release, if there is any equity to be drawn on.
Any hopes of a bounce in house prices riding to the rescue seem misplaced, at least for most of the UK outside of the hot spots.
Property is still overpriced at more than five times average earnings compared with a long term average of 4.2 times.
Even with interest rates at their current low levels, repayments are typically a third of average earnings, suggesting that many may be pushed into difficulty when borrowing costs rise.
The Bank of England's Funding for Lending scheme is helping with the availability of mortgage finance, but it and other schemes are unlikely to reverse the steep decline in housing transactions, which have halved since their peak in 2007 and are 35 per cent below the twenty-year average.
Demand from first-time buyers, the traditional engine of the housing market, is at a low ebb, because of the need for enormous deposits.
Confidence in the economy is low, prompting potential home-movers to stay put until the outlook seems brighter.
An apparently static housing market gives the appearance of some kind of stability, but in so far as any equilibrium exists, it is an uneasy one.
At best, if there are no shocks, the bubble will continue deflating slowly, a process of painful attrition that is likely to go on for some years.
The main hope must be that lessons are actually learned this time, and we eventually emerge with a more sane mortgage market.

Newly planted Pygmy Date Palm, fronds turning brown
I planted a 7 gallon pygmy date palm 5 days ago. Since then I water it every other day, each time with about 1.5 gallons of water. I know for sure that the soil it sits in is damp, and since now the temperature in the valley has come down quite a bit, I haven't watered it every day.
Before it was planted, I noticed that one frond started to turn brown at the tips. Well, after I planted it, there have been quite a few fronds that started to brown. And the one that was a bit brown now turned totally brown (sorry about the tongue twister!)
Here are a few pictures:
These pictures were taken this morning. And by the time I got home in the evening, it was actually even worse -- two fronds had turned pretty much totally brown.
Could someone please kindly tell me if this is just simply the initial shock, or from too much water, or too little water? Thanks so much!
PS:Just in case the pix don't show, here are the links:
Good job posting the links as the embedded pics didn't work for me. Every other day seems a bit much to me if they're in the ground, but it doesn't sound like you're drowning them either. The leaf loss in your pics looks pretty minimal/normal for a transplanted one, especially since they mostly seem to be the older fronds, but let's see what our other members say too.
I'd just just make sure they get lightly dry between watering (mine get watered twice a week at this time of year) and then not to sweat the older fronds yellowing/browning, especially after a recent transplant. I think your plants look pretty good overall.
Good luck and keep us posted,
Many thanks grant_in_arizona!
What worries me most is that the trunk appears to be turning brown, as you can see from this picture.
I went back to Home Depot and took a look at pygmies of a similar size, and their trunks all looked green!
Have already cut down on watering. Just a little bit water (like a cup or two) every day in the morning. I can see that the clay is damp enough.
Hmmm...that is a little worrying. There's really not much you can do other than let them get slightly dry between watering. If they were mine I wouldn't water them every single day, but rather give them a good drink and then let them go several days until the next watering (especially now that it's so cool).
Good luck and keep us posted. I think they can be pretty finicky when they get transplanted, but once they are happy they're pretty easy to keep happy.
Take care,
Thanks! I will quit watering every day, and wait a few more days to see how it does.
It was my first time planting a pygmy palm -- well, planing anything, really. lol.
Worse case scenario I will have to dig it out and get another one from Home Depot. It would be such a shame because I really like the shape of this one, and a lot of effort already went into it.
Thanks again!
Today's the end of the second week after it was transplanted, and the pygmy is still alive! The color of the trunk remains pretty much the same (as in the picture), and the tips of a few fronds have turned brown. But other than that, it seems to be doing OK.
I hope that the initial shock stage is already over now! Still keep my fingers crossed.

Murray basin and project location
King County is designing an underground storage tank across the street from Seattle's Lowman Beach Park. The tank will store approximately one million gallons when the Murray Pump Station exceeds maximum capacity.
Like many cities around the country (external link), the older parts of King County's wastewater system uses a single set of pipes to carry untreated sewage and stormwater to a treatment plant. To prevent sewer backups into homes and streets, the system includes safety valves called "combined sewer overflows" that route excess sewage and polluted stormwater flow directly into Puget Sound during storms. Although CSOs reduce potential exposure to untreated sewage, they pose significant public health concerns.
The Murray CSO control facility will reduce CSOs into Puget Sound. State regulations require no more than one untreated discharge per year. The Murray Pump Station averages five untreated CSO events per year, discharging 5 million gallons into Puget Sound off of Lowman Beach Park.
View construction schedule overview (PDF) and project meeting calendar.
Since October 2011 Lowman Beach Park neighbors and park users have worked with local designers, environmentalists and community advocates to help the King County project team design a facility that fits with the community. These discussions produced "common themes" for the design that reflect the community's values for a safe, reliable facility. The common themes are:
Southbound vehicles on Beach Drive SW can use the access road south of the park to turn around.
