Yellow iMac Display: Apple Executive Care, "No solution, Not fixed."
I sent an email to Steve Jobs about my yellow tint 21.5 iMac issues (three exchanges, all affected, resulting in a refund). I got a call from Dena at Executive Care within 24 hours.
She said they are aware of the problem and do not know how widespread it is. According to Dena, the issue is not resolved and that ordering a new iMac will not result in a fixed display. She said the engineers are working on it now and they are not sure if it's hardware (most likely) or software related. Further Apple stores cannot do repairs because they haven't determined what the issue is. Her advice: "Wait to buy one until the issue is resolved." |

That's a great piece of advice. I am certainly waiting. Way to go to the root. Good job.

should we all email him?
give him an idea of how widespread it is? or should someone link him to this thread and the one on apple discussions? |

Its funny though, Apple keeps on churning out yellow displays, even though they know there not right. The people that it bothers are returning and waiting for a replacement (me for example) and the ones that are "just living with it" are, well, just living with it.
I think the yellowing is on every machine and some people just don't see it or care. I have looked at like 15 machines in my area and there all yellow on the bottom right. |

the dilemma of apple is now they cant solve the issue , but orders coming for new iMacs in every day , and they have to deliver by law ,and in the time agreed , they cant say if you ordered one and payed for it sorry we deliver it when we have sorted out the issue
because that could take weeks or month depending what the cause is , if its a construction problem of the screen it could be quiet tricky to find the actual cause , dont know exactly how many parts are in the lcd screen, but its certainly build out of more then two parts so finding the bad part , and finding a solution on how to fix that part can take time , if possible at all , eventually they even are forced to look for another supplier , in a lcd screen are quiet a few electronic parts especially in the backlid lcd screens , maybe the whole screen needs to be reconstructed from scratch to solve the problem you never know maybe its only a couple led`s from a bad batch that cause the problem but they have to deliver the goods ordered in the agreed time , even if they would know that they are likely to be faulty , they can delay a delivery for a couple days, but then customers are screaming already "where is my iMac i odered it already back then and it still did not arrive " so either way they do get complains

What I find most amusing are all of the posts asking : "do you have week 47, 49, 50, etc. etc. and is it fixed". Do these folks really believe you can retool a factory in Shanghai while it's operating at full capacity. Apple has made a wise business decision. Most people, including myself, will live with it for awhile, or for the life of the computer (assuming all else is well, fortunately I got a WD HD), let Apple Care take care of it a year from now or throw it on eBay an get a new one when the manufacturing process reaches maturity. I'm old enough to have paid $3,000 in 1983 for an IBM PC with two floppies and a 12" CRT. The 27" iMac's are a steal, even with yellow. Like the executive office so honestly implied in their reply, go to the Apple Store and check it out, if it bugs you buy one in 2011. |

sorry but this isn't right. If Apple know a product is faulty or likely to be faulty then it is illegal in the UK to sell it. end of story.... Orders don't even have to be fulfilled at all as long as they don't take the money till it ships. its a shoddy way to do business though if you know you have a problem and still keep sending them out. All you end up doing is annoying the end user.... and, again in the UK it can cost a lot of money. I'm sure the Apple 'faithful' will keep on ticking highly satisified on the survey when their 22nd iMac eventual turns up faultless. Quote:

he's part of the free world, you're are in the US. The clue is next to his name.. Quote:
wise words.. Mac Mini Apple's no-frills desktop just got a spec increase and added a server model in late October. It shouldn't be getting any more updates any time soon, which is a shame, because it's still not a very competitive product for the price. Check out the Acer AspireRevo R3610 as a more than viable alternative.

Thanks for sharing Pointbreakd
I'll definitely wait another 2-3 months before I buy this version... People should be realistic and patient if they would like these problems worked out: January, and even the March iMacs are not guaranteed to be any different than the current ones. When I picked up my first iMac almost ten years ago, it was a revision B (333Mhz)-- but it came in a Bondi-blue case, instead of the stated Blueberry case. The harddrive whined so loudly. But it was my first computer, and I didn't know any better. I'm sure there are so many more 27" iMac owners that are in the same position as I was back in 1999; they just don't know any better... Thanks again Pointbreakd |

iMac screen without the computer kenny003 posted this over a Giz.. I am surprised the 24" ACD didn't get this much attention but I'm glad the iMac is. I bought.... 16 24" ACDs before getting one with a "decent" uniform screen. The bottom is still a little more yellow then the top but its the best one out of the 16 units.. My 23" ACD has a perfectly uniform screen Last edited by archipellago; Dec 29, 2009 at 01:31 PM. |

The first 15" LED MBP's suffered with the yellow tinge as well. I believe those were Samsung panels. So yes this is not a new problem for Apple.

Jesus said: I tell you for certain that I am the gate for the sheep. Everyone who came before me was a thief or a robber, and the sheep did not listen to any of them. I am the gate. All who come in through me will be saved. Through me they will come and go and find pasture. A thief comes only to rob, kill, and destroy. I came so that everyone would have life, and have it in its fullest. I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd gives up his life for his sheep
Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, "Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?" Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace, be still!" And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.
Where is your heart? When we say the pledge to the flag of the United States, we place our hand over our heart on the left side of our chest, is that where our heart is?
Along the coast line of the Sea of Galilee lies a little stop in the road community in the middle of a very green farm area, called Kibbutz Ginosar. We stop to see the 2,000-year-old boat at the museum, but outside, like an overlooked simple lace collar on a beautiful dress, the mosaic benches line the sculptured lawn, making a welcoming place for people to sit as they soak in the fresh air and sunshine. A kibbutz is a place of growing, a farming area that sustains the people of the area. This is not the only kibbutz in ...
A true disciple of Christ has more to do than just be a faithful follower.
Jesus gives six "woes" in Luke 11, I wonder if any of them would cause us to say, "Woe is me?"
Just a Thought: Are you ceremonial, or spiritual?
Beside the Sea of Galilee and up from Tiberias lies the Kibbutz Ginosar. A kibbutz is an area in Israel rich in farmland and vegetation. Kibbutz communities rely on agriculture for their income, and much of the area's fruits and vegetables come from these communities. The Kibbutz Ginosar is also known as the place for the "resurrection" of a 2000 year old fishing vessel which dates back to the first century. Known as the "Jesus boat," this boat was probably in use for many decades on the Sea of Galilee, and was the kind of boat that Jesus and ...
During my trip to Bethlehem, I had the pleasure of visiting the St. Nicolas Church, an Arab Christian congregation that sits on a side street just up the hill from the Angel Hotel. Behind the church in a small courtyard lie tombs of past leaders of the church. The graves are surrounded with flowers and marked with names and a picture, reminding all who visit this small churchyard of the faithfulness of these beloved leaders.
Have you ever had a need, but couldn't express it?
Who are you teaching to pray? Now maybe no one has come to you like Jesus disciples and asked you specifically to teach them to pray. However, we don't always teach one on one or in a class or Sunday school class room either. The truth is we do far more teaching from a distance than we realize.
"Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? "
I know you've heard of this one; "The Mary, Martha syndrome" Yup, we take a step back on purpose to remind us we need to be careful not to let the good things in our life rob us of the God things. Backing up to a small scene with huge implications in Luke 10, we find Jesus coming into the home of His single friends Martha, Mary and Lazarus. This is place where Jesus can find rest and relaxation from His busy schedule. He has just about six months left before He will be crucified and he stops by ...
For the next few weeks, my meditations will grow out of the many thoughts, feelings and prayers from the Holy Land. If you follow me on Facebook, some of this may look familiar as my Lenten Journey this year will contain reflections from my recent trip. Some will be included here.

When civilizations come to ruin and new civilizations are built on top of them, it takes archaeologists ...

You are at war. I know, you probably didn't have to swerve to miss any IED's on the road today, and I'm sure you weren't dodging any heat-seeking missiles when you went to get the paper. Nevertheless, you are at war. That's the way God's Word describes your life here on this earth: War.
In the gospel stories, I do not recall any occasion when the disciples complained of being hungry, or tired, or of pain. As followers of an itinerant rabbi, they were prepared to hike for miles over rough terrain, sustained by meager fare and perhaps suffer violence at the hands of their detractors. We see stories where the disciples note a lack of food ("send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves"). We even see them falling asleep from exhaustion, as in the Garden of Gethsemane. We see them plucking grains out ...
Have you ever had that feeling like you're spinning your wheels? Does it ever seem like you work work and work and don't seem to get anywhere? You know you make as much as a bunch of people, but it just doesn't seem like you can ever get ahead? God's Word for us today in Haggai 1 explains why that happens.
The news recently has celebrated the antics of Jet Blue flight attendant Steven Slater, who pulled off his version of "Take this job and shove it." He made his grand exit from the plane (and his employment) by shouting a series of expletives, opening the emergency escape door, deploying the escape chute, and sliding down to freedom. The two beers he took with him added a dramatic flourish. But more notable is the public reaction to his clearly inappropriate behavior. Nationwide people are celebrating his misdeed. Television, radio shows, blogs, Facebook and Twitter are burning up with support for him ...
"Be joyful always." That's what the Holy Spirit inspired the apostle Paul to tell us in 1 Thessalonians 5:16. Now, if you're looking for a verse of the Bible to memorize, that is one of the easiest, right alongside the classic "Jesus wept." Actually, did you know there is a shorter verse in the NIV translation? Job 3:2 is just "He said." But I digress. I was saying that "Be joyful always" is a real easy thing to say, and almost as easy to memorize… but how hard is it to do?
I disagree with both the liberal and conservative approaches to the current economic crisis.
Well, my doctor has advised me to reduce my salt intake for the sake of my blood pressure, a task which has proven to be very difficult. I can pass by the obviously salty things like chips and bacon, but salt is hidden in everything from artichokes to zucchini. Cooking without salt is not hard, but dining out low-sodium style is next to impossible.
Our church's construction project has hit a little delay. We're still waiting for approval from the Department of Transportation. So, I asked the contractor who's trying to work through all this what I could do to help. I was thinking he might tell me to make a phone call or supply some documents. His answer? Pray.
In this information age, almost anything you want to know can be gleaned from the internet or some other source. The recent "Wiki Leak" of tens of thousands of war diary entries from Afghanistan is only the most recent in the flood of data made available to us. The problem with data, though, is that it is up to the user to analyze it and draw conclusions. While our knowledge has grown exponentially in one generation, it would be hard to say that wisdom has gained much ground. I'm afraid the raw data from 91,000 pages of journal ...
Are you busy? You know that question precedes someone asking for a moment of your time, right? You know that it might come off as rude to say "yes" and then walk away, even if you are busy. But you are busy, aren't you? Doesn't it always seem that there are more things to do than time, money, and energy to do them? Are there things you don't get to because your life is so hectic? My guess is "yes."
Tomorrow, I'll be conducting a funeral of a man not yet 50 years old. So, needless to say, there are a bunch of people asking a bunch of questions. Have you ever been in that situation? Have you ever asked God "Why?" And maybe it isn't even about a death. Maybe you've tried to figure out why you lost a job, or why your child rebelled, or why your health failed, or why whatever else happened in your life that you would not have picked for yourself.
If you asked 50 people what they wanted in life, you would probably get 50 answers. But at the heart of each answer would run a common theme: meaning. We all want meaning in our lives. We all want a sense of purpose and gravity around something bigger than ourselves. This is part of what John Wesley called Prevenient Grace. It is God's gift to us which includes our innate awareness of the need for God. It is not taught but is a universal characteristic of all cultures. Without it, we wander through life with an empty feeling of ...
You know the saying: "Freedom is not free." As we prepare to celebrate the 4th of July this weekend, it's important to appreciate that. Think of how much so many have given so that you could be reading this in peace. Think of the lives given so that we can be so comfortable in our security that seeing things exploding in the sky this weekend will not be scary.
Current events can sometimes take a toll on my spirit. Recently, the news outlets have bombarded us with this hot news flash: More Of The Same. More economic stagnation, more sweltering heat, more closures and foreclosures, more oil spilling into the Gulf of Mexico. Even a new field general in Afghanistan does not mask the fact that it is the same old war. Politicians campaigning for office are giving us the same old message: "If you send me to Washington, I'll be different. And this time I really mean it!"
Here's a quandary for you. When you see a building going up - who gets the credit? Is it the contractor, the supplier, the fund-raiser? Or what about the architect, or the laborers? I know that a whole bunch of people will be at least partially taking credit for my church's new building. The contractor and the stone supplier and the stained glass guy have already asked for pictures to use in their advertising. I'm sure the architect will have our picture up in his office soon, and I'm sure that, before long, the foundation that gave ...

I'm just a horny old goat with an old prick,
Another thing I love is a pretty ass,
With my cock inside her asshole, in shit!
A young sweet pussy is my succulent treat,
And I love slurping her pussy's juice out.
I love to shove my cock inside and fuck it,
Cause having a good cums what it's about!
I love to see a girl's round naked bottom,
Cause it raises my lust to a new height.
My taste buds are aroused when I start licking,
And her sweet asshole makes me want to bite!
When I shove my cock deep inside her asshole,
My fevered brain explodes with pure desire.
When I climax deep inside her with my cum,
I know my hot cum sets her ass on fire!
I'm not ashamed to be a horny old goat,
In fact it makes me want to yell and shout.
I love to eat and fuck pussies and assholes,
And after all, that's what it's all about!!

Why a Living Will? What can a Living Will Do For You? A Living Will can help you to:
A Living Will contains space for you to add any directions or provisions you may want. What is the Legal Status of Living Wills? In the landmark case of the United States Supreme Court concerning the right to die (Cruzan v. Harmon), the Court recognized the constitutional right of an individual to refuse unwanted medical or life-sustaining treatment. They went on to say that there is a right to refuse treatment only if a patient's wishes could be established by "clear and convincing evidence." Most sates now have laws that allow a competent adult to make his or her wishes known through a Living Will. In the states that do not as yet have such laws, Living Wills have been upheld and referred to in their court decisions. A Living Will is the best evidence of your wishes and best protection for the emotional and financial well being of you and your family. Plan ahead.
This website provides general information. Due to complexities and constant changes in the law, exceptions to general principles of law, and variations of state laws, seek professional legal advice before acting on any matter!

New Mexico PBS, located at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, is using a Snell Kahuna SD/HD multiformat production switcher in its new HD production control room and studio. Integrated with other best-of-breed broadcast products, the Kahuna provides the reliability, ease of use and image quality that New Mexico PBS required for its state-of-the-art video production facilities. By improving the efficiency of the overall broadcast workflow, the flexibility of the Kahuna system also saves New Mexico PBS time and money.
New Mexico PBS produces both public affairs programs and documentaries with live studio content, so video production values are critical. After a thorough evaluation of video switchers, it selected the Kahuna multiformat production switcher.
Kahuna's internal resizing engine allows it to handle any format or aspect ratio on the fly, and Snell's FormatFusion technology enables simultaneous SD and HD operations in the same mainframe and on the same control panel. This flexibility vastly simplifies the HD transition by eliminating the need for external up/down/crossconverters in the live production environment, as well as the cost and signal-path delay associated with these products. Kahuna's three M/E banks, with four tiers of effects per bank, make 12 keys possible, and staff at New Mexico PBS rely heavily on Kahuna's chroma key and on the four two-channel DVEs built into the system to bring complex effects and sophisticated elements to their productions.

For becoming Power Home Technologies' 75,000th customer, Jordan Moore received free monitoring for one year and a system upgrade to Alarm.com's advanced interactive and home automation services at no charge.

July 22, 2014 (DALLAS) - Power Home Technologies recently celebrated 75,000 customers installed and their 10-year anniversary. Out of the 75,000 installs, more than half of those customers have been installed since Power Home Technologies became a Monitronics authorized dealer in 2011.
"We are so excited about our business right now. Since joining the Monitronics dealer program, our business has almost doubled! The past ten years have been good but the next 10 years are going to be GREAT! Not only are we exceeding the goals we set but we are providing more growth opportunity for all of our team members," said Ben Brookhart, Power Home Technologies, CEO.
"Monitronics was honored to celebrate the achievement of Power Home Technologies 50,000th customer in 2012. Now, achieving 75,000 customers installed shows their rapid growth and dedication. Power Home Technologies is a great partner and we continue to look forward to reaching and celebrating many key milestones in the future," said Bruce Mungiguerra, Monitronics Vice President of Operations.
For becoming Power Home Technologies' 75,000th customer, Mr. Jordan Moore received free monitoring for one year and a system upgrade to Alarm.com's advanced interactive and home automation services at no charge. The upgrades included a light module, Z-Wave Door Lock, and a controllable thermostat.
"I chose to do business with Power Home Technologies because they had a local office with a great reputation in the Hampton Roads area and offered the new technology I was looking for," Mr. Moore said. "I was very impressed with their follow through on everything they offered and the professional installer who was a dedicated employee of the company."
Power Home Technologies is a "Super Regional" company in the Southeast that has branch locations in VA, NC, SC, FL, TN, and AL. They also do business in 13 other states throughout the US.
Brookhart credits the company's success to the trust, loyalty, and dedication of his team members.
"Without people you can trust there is no growth. Without loyalty there is no trust. Without dedication to the growth of our company there is no opportunity. "Brookhart said. "You have to believe in your employees when they don't believe in themselves at times. That's what we do at Power Home Technologies, believe, believe, believe!"

2nd time around We are currently on our second one. We had the first coffee pot for about one month. There was a water flow problem or maybe it was the coffee filter getting too much water at once and it getting clogged. We.contacted Breville right away. They had some suggestions and in all fairness we tried it out. The problem was not resvoled so we contacted Breville right away and we sent the "old" one in and they replaced it without troubles. The customer service was great. I love that it makes a cup of coffee or a pot. And love the functions for stronger or weaker coffee. The coffee tastes good. It also requires a bit more every a maintence but but over all I am enjoying it problems and all

You'll want to keep several considerations in mind when choosing your coffee table, including size, material, style and function.

Lewis Hamilton suffers crash on Mercedes testing debut
Lewis Hamilton's first day of testing for his new Mercedes team got off to a bad start when he crashed after 15 laps because of a braking problem.
The 2008 world champion lost control at the end of the back straight at the Jerez circuit in southern Spain.
Hamilton was unhurt after ploughing across a gravel trap and into a tyre wall.
The team were unable to fix the car in time to run again, continuing a troubled start to their 2013 campaign.
"I'm just glad that firstly I'm safe and that it's happened now, not when we're in the season or something," said Hamilton.
"This is what testing is about. It's about getting through those development phases, errors or whatever they may be and working on them and that's what the guys are doing."
The two problems suffered by Mercedes on their first two days of testing are not major but they have cost the team a lot of laps, which is a set-back with only 12 days of testing before the start of the season. Nico Rosberg's problem on day one was an electrical fault and Lewis Hamilton suffered a failure of a rear brake fitting on Wednesday. It seems the pipe fitting to the caliper was flexing and finally cracked. The crash also damaged one of the front suspension pick-up points. So before Thursday they will have to re-do the brakes and fix the pick-up points. In the brief running they have done so far, they haven't been slow, with the proviso we do not know the fuel loads they - or in reality anyone else - were running. So it's a set-back, but not an insurmountable one. However, they don't need too many more of them.
On the first day of testing on Tuesday, Hamilton's team-mate Nico Rosberg managed only 11 laps before his running was ended by an electrical problem in the wiring loom.
The car was pictured with flames coming from it but these were caused by unburnt fuel in the exhausts after the engine shut off as a precaution.
Mercedes said Hamilton's car lost rear brake pressure. He managed to slow the car using the front brakes but could not avoid the barrier.
The problem was traced to the hydraulic brake line connecting to the right-rear caliper. The impact with the barrier also damaged the front left corner - the suspension and associated aerodynamic parts.
Hamilton added: "We had a failure with one of the brake pipes, the hydraulic lines, so when I hit the brakes they did not work, basically. Just the front brakes worked, not the rears, so I just went straight on.
"[The impact] was pretty heavy but it wasn't as bad as I've experienced in the past.
"We damaged the car a little bit and as all the new stuff is still being built we didn't have too many spare parts to be able to change it so they're working on it tonight."
Hamilton had just set what was, at the time, the second fastest lap of the day when he crashed.
Mercedes motorsport boss Toto Wolff said the team decided to end their running for the day to ensure they had got to the bottom of the problems.
Hamilton said he was "quite happy" with the car, describing it as "a good foundation that we can work on".
However, he admitted that the car was lacking downforce compared with the McLaren he drove last year.
"That was an easy time to do, there is definitely more in it," Hamilton said. "I'm pushing the aero guys as hard as I can because we need more aero, definitely. Coming from a McLaren that was so competitive at the end of last year and had incredible downforce, I definitely notice the difference, but it is nowhere near as bad as it could be."
Hamilton, 28, signed a three-year contract with Mercedes in September having spent his entire F1 career at McLaren since his debut in 2007.
The fastest time of the day was set by Lotus driver Romain Grosjean, 0.785 seconds ahead of Scot Paul di Resta in the Force India.
Daniel Ricciardo's Toro Rosso was third, ahead of Red Bull's Mark Webber, Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg and Hamilton.
Mexican Sergio Perez, Hamilton's replacement at McLaren, was seventh fastest, 0.7secs slower than team-mate Jenson Button had been in setting the pace on day one.
Perez said: "Very good day in terms of getting into the new office. It's much more different than I expected, just by sitting in a different seat. You have to adapt yourself to a different position, a different way to hold the steering wheel - everything is different but I think we are going in the right direction.
"I still need to sort out something with cockpit but we managed well.
"Feedback is good straight away. I knew this car had good potential as soon as I drove it out of the garage."
Ferrari's Felipe Massa was eighth, 1.696secs off the pace, his team saying they were concentrating on analysis of different exhaust systems.
Force India's British simulator driver James Rossiter, 29, tested for the last hour of the session for the team, clocking the 10th fastest time.

INTRODUCTION: The detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are the primary aims of pharmacovigilance activities. Pediatric patients, especially all newborns and infants, are particularly at risk for experiencing drug-related adverse events. AREAS COVERED: This review briefly analyzes the physiological peculiarities of pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic aspects of drugs in newborns, infants and toddlers and children. It also deals with specific pediatric pharmacovigilance aspects, such as the frequent use of unlicensed and/or off-label drugs in neonatal intensive care units in European countries and in Australia. This review reports on European, American and Canadian data about the incidence and type of pediatric ADRs, particularly focusing on neonates, infants and toddlers. EXPERT OPINION: The awareness of pediatricians about the importance of reporting ADRs should be stimulated, new reporting systems should be encouraged and pediatric pharmacovigilance activities should be improved, first, by intensifying active post-marketing surveillance methods. |

State of War
This hidden history involves domestic spying, abuses of power, and outrageous operations. It includes a CIA that became caught in a political cross fire that it could not withstand, and what it did to respond. It includes a Defense Department that made its own foreign policy, even against the wishes of the commander in chief. It features a president who created a sphere of deniability in which his top aides were briefed on matters of the utmost sensitivity -- but the president was carefully kept in ignorance. State of War reveals this hidden history for the first time, including scandals that will redefine the Bush presidency.
James Risen has covered national security for The New York Times for years. Based on extraordinary sources from top to bottom in Washington and around the world, drawn from dozens of interviews with key figures in the national security community, this book exposes an explosive chain of events:
- Contrary to law, and with little oversight, the National Security Administration has been engaged in a massive domestic spying program.
- On such sensitive issues as the use of torture, the administration created a zone of deniability: the president's top advisors were briefed, but the president himself was not.
- The United States actually gave nuclear-bomb designs to Iran.
- The CIA had overwhelming evidence that Iraq had no nuclear weapons programs during the run-up to the Iraq war. They kept that information to themselves and didn't tell the president.
- While the United States has refused to lift a finger, Afghanistan has become a narco-state, supplying 87 percent of the heroin sold on the global market.
These are just a few of the stories told in State of War. Beyond these shocking specifics, Risen describes troubling patterns: Truth-seekers within the CIA were fired or ignored. Long-standing rules were trampled. Assassination squads were trained; war crimes were proposed. Yet for all the aggressiveness of America's spies, a blind eye was turned toward crucial links between al Qaeda and Saudi Arabia, among other sensitive topics.
Not since the revelations of CIA and FBI abuses in the 1970s have so many scandals in the intelligence community come to light. More broadly, Risen's secret history shows how power really works in George W. Bush's presidency.

The PGY-2 year is designed to develop advanced knowledge and skills in complex psychiatric diagnosis, psychopharmacology, and consultation-liaison psychiatry. It also provides elective training experiences in sub-specialty areas of psychiatry and longitudinal outpatient psychotherapy.
The PGY-2 year is comprised of rotation blocks varying in length from 1-4 months each, including inpatient psychiatry, consultation-liaison psychiatry, geriatric psychiatry, and electives. The flexible schedule allows residents some choices and the ability to explore interests, deepen knowledge of a particular sub-specialty, and perhaps refine plans for post-residency fellowship training.
PGY-2 residents have a year-long, half day per week outpatient psychiatry clinic. Residents develop longitudinal treatment plans and more advanced psychotherapy skills; some residents co-facilitate psychotherapy groups.
PGY-2 residents have 5.5 hours per week of protected didactic time. The PGY-2 curriculum focuses on honing knowledge and skills in complex diagnosis, advanced psychopharmacology, and special populations. In addition, there is an emphasis on psychodynamic and developmental perspectives. The PGY-2 seminars include:
PGY-2 residents have two hours weekly of regularly scheduled individual supervision, one from the primary attending at the inpatient site, and one at their outpatient clinic.
Residents on the Integrated Track continue with the protected time. Residents on the Research Track begin their scholarly activities. Other PGY-2 may opt to fulfill their scholarly activities.

I recently moved up to a new 17" iMac with OS X Tiger; now how can I transfer the old text files from my old G3 iMac onto the new guy? I did them in Appleworks 5 on my old G3.
I transferred all my writings via zip drive, but the shiny new machine doesn't want to know them. An error message says that "the Application is not supported on this system." Also, the old AppleWorks 5 app won't install. The thing is, I wrote on the old word processing app for 10 years, never upgraded, never needed to. I'm wondering then if the problem, for me at least, is that I never bought any of the various upgrade iterations of Apple OS and AppleWorks; so now this fancy new Intel iMac can't read applications that are this old. So what to do? (Besides continuing to use the old G3, that is :-) tia |

Mods: please move to Applications forum.
Apple's Pages (part of the iWork suite) can import AppleWorks files. So can Microsoft Word on the Mac. Some formatting may be lost in the conversion process with Word. I'm not sure, though, whether either of those programs supports AW5 files. There are free one-month trials of both apps, though, so you should be able to test them before you plunk down your money. As a last resort, AppleWorks 6, the last version, is still available for $80. It will run in Rosetta on a Macintel, but should open AW5 files just fine. |

The poll is slightly misleading...is the co-worker a deranged wacko, or a normal law-abiding CCW holder?
A clearer definition as to the type of co-worker might have yielded a more favorable result...although one could say, "Arm them all, I'll take my chances!"

Conversation After the Flood
With Jerry Ward, Miriam Mona Lisa
Tue, 20 Sep 2005 16:01:31 EDT Dear Mona Lisa & Jerry,
Today I talked with Karen Green, a Dillard professor who knows you, and she told me that Dillard is paying its faculty.
Apparently, her sister, who is in Houston, has direct deposit and received her salary, but Karen doesn't have dd. She had to call the following number--1 (877) 888-0100--to give them her address. She also gave me the e-mail address of the provost (?), which is bparker firstname.lastname@example.com. She said there's a space in the middle of the name, but that doesn't look right to me.
Karen is in Natchez with her parents.
I hope that you are doing better this week than last.
Take care,
Tue, 20 Sep 2005 19:05:11 -0500
Dear Miriam and Mona Lisa,
Since I had direct deposit, Dillard did put my final August check in the bank; I'll have to go online to see if there was a September 15 deposit. Dillard now has a new websit: www.dillard.edu which contains updated news and other information. When I talked with Dean Taylor last week, there was a strong possibility that Dillard would offer classes in January from the Morris Brown campus. That would be an historically noteworthy happening.
I have an apartment in Vicksburg and am doing some volunteer teaching at Tougaloo College as my alumni gift. Working with students also prevents my falling into self-pity about what I may have lost in New Orleans. Doing a two-week seminar at Grinnell College (24 Oct-4 Nov) will also help. I am working on various entries about the disaster and my oddly convoluted states of mind and my brain walking a tightrope to somewhere under the title "THE KATRINA PAPERS." Let us pray we do not have to add a "RITA CODA."
Mona Lisa, it would be good if John Lowe and the LSU English Department could sponsor a Red Beans & Ricely Yours party for you next month or in November. I am sure those of us who are in driving distance would come for the celebration.
Wednesday, September 21, 2005 2:40 PM
Hey now Jerry and Miriam,
If you don't know, I've accepted a Visiting Assoc. Prof. position at the University of Washington for the year. They begin school next Wednesday; I need the job so I can keep my property.
Y'all, I visited New Orleans on Monday. Ishmael Reed's words are more than on target. My beloved New Orleans is a ghost town, like the abandoned towns of the old west, empty, dead, no grass, nothing growing, no one there. Jerry, can you imagine Dillard with all dead grass? That's what's there, deadness, and the surrounding homes were flooded like mine. I salvaged a few clothes, some research, my soggy Kaufman books since I'd like to finish that work and get it to a publisher. Everything is ruined, my library, even my clothes--the smell is unimaginable; already, I've washed them again and again, hoping to at least recover my jeans and some shirts. Some fine things are in the dry cleaner, and because everything floated around, I couldn't get to my winter coat. All my shoes are gone, my beautiful kitchen and new bedroom; I had just renovated last year. How can we all rebuild at once? At least, in my neighborhood, our old shotgun homes are still standing. In the East, it is more of a war zone with massive damage to most every home and more extensive flooding. It was horrible. Even if Dillard opens in January, who will be there, who will come into this?
I'm exhausted, and trying to get everything in order before flying out on Friday, the 23rd of Sept.
I'll get together, with my sister Barbara too, who lives in Seattle as well, one great reason to pick that place. I have so much to be thankful for since daily I see so many without jobs or a place to go. God help us all.
Please keep in touch. Hugs to you both.
Red Beans and Ricely Thankful and Hopeful, Mona Lisa
Wednesday, September 21, 2005 4:55 PM
Rudy, Mona Lisa was one of the first persons whom I contacted, and I knew that you were worried about her. This is so sad, and it's like so many of the stories that are coming out of New Orleans: everything lost, in shambles, moldy and mildewed. How can a person go back to that? Maybe M. L. can because (I think) she's young and will have the energy to undertake the monumental job of rebuilding, but what about the aged and sick and disheartened and clinically depressed? -- Miriam

Red Beans and Ricely Yours
By Mona Lisa Saloy
Dr. Mona Lisa Saloy has achieved a similar liberation and transformation with this new book of poems. Such personal victories always deserve great applause, especially when they are achieved so wonderfully. No writer or group of writing comes to mind of Black New Orleans that captures the New Orleans life in so wondrous a painting, musical composition—not Kalamu ya Salaam, not Brenda Marie Osbey, not even Marcus Bruce Christian. None expresses such love and devotion, none so realistically and approachable, none so fully and delightfully as we find in Red Beans and Ricely Yours(2005). These fifty poems or so of a life murdered by human neglect and disregard are insights won with blood and tears. I remind you the book should have been the first three sections (36 poems), except for a few other poems in the other two sections (16 poems). Whatever flaw the book may have, one delights even in them. All the poems are well done and will be enjoyed. Folks, we have a classic here that will make an excellent gift for any occasion. I have the hardback edition. One on your shelf, everybody'll know you have good taste, New Orleans style. A final note: I'm told that Louis Armstrong used to sign all his letters Red Beans and Ricely Yours.
Malcolm X
A Life of Reinvention
By Manning Marable
Years in the making-the definitive biography of the legendary black activist. Of the great figure in twentieth-century American history perhaps none is more complex and controversial than Malcolm X. Constantly rewriting his own story, he became a criminal, a minister, a leader, and an icon, all before being felled by assassins' bullets at age thirty-nine. Through his tireless work and countless speeches he empowered hundreds of thousands of black Americans to create better lives and stronger communities while establishing the template for the self-actualized, independent African American man. In death he became a broad symbol of both resistance and reconciliation for millions around the world.
Manning Marable's new biography of Malcolm is a stunning achievement. Filled with new information and shocking revelations that go beyond the Autobiography, Malcolm X unfolds a sweeping story of race and class in America, from the rise of Marcus Garvey and the Ku Klux Klan to the struggles of the civil rights movement in the fifties and sixties. Reaching into Malcolm's troubled youth, it traces a path from his parents' activism through his own engagement with the Nation of Islam, charting his astronomical rise in the world of Black Nationalism and culminating in the never-before-told true story of his assassination. Malcolm X will stand as the definitive work on one of the most singular forces for social change, capturing with revelatory clarity a man who constantly strove, in the great American tradition, to remake himself anew.

Sister Citizen: Shame, Stereotypes, and Black Women in America
By Melissa V. Harris-Perry
According to the author, this society has historically exerted considerable pressure on black females to fit into one of a handful of stereotypes, primarily, the Mammy, the Matriarch or the Jezebel. The selfless Mammy's behavior is marked by a slavish devotion to white folks' domestic concerns, often at the expense of those of her own family's needs. By contrast, the relatively-hedonistic Jezebel is a sexually-insatiable temptress. And the Matriarch is generally thought of as an emasculating figure who denigrates black men, ala the characters Sapphire and Aunt Esther on the television shows Amos and Andy and Sanford and Son, respectively. Professor Perry points out how the propagation of these harmful myths have served the mainstream culture well. For instance, the Mammy suggests that it is almost second nature for black females to feel a maternal instinct towards Caucasian babies. As for the source of the Jezebel, black women had no control over their own bodies during slavery given that they were being auctioned off and bred to maximize profits.
