Won't Factory Reset
Hi, everyone. I'm new to having an android so bear with me here. I bought a refurbished Droid X off of Amazon, and after having a very fun time trying to get it to charge (took two days to do it), I was finally able to turn the phone on. Then I ran into a problem. The previous owner's data was still on there: accounts, pictures, everything. I didn't want to mess with that, so I decided to do a factory reset. I found instructions how to do that on this forum.
1. Turn the device off.
2. Hold the power and home button until the little android with a triangle and exclamation point come up.
3. Press the volume up and down buttons until the options menu comes up
4. Highlight "wipe data/factory reset".
5. Press the power button to select that option and wait for it to run through.
6. Highlight "reboot system now" when that's done and then press power again.
I've done that literally ten times, but every time the phone has come up with the same settings, apps, accounts, and pictures that were on there when I went in the first time. I have no idea what to do. Can anyone help me? (And please tell me if this has been asked before. I tried searching for it in the forums, but I found nothing that would help me.)
Thanks! -
Re: Won't Factory Reset
That's weird. Will the phone run other that that, though?

Re: Won't Factory Reset
Yeah. It boots up just fine but every time I "factory reset", any kind of changes I made (deleted accounts or apps or changed settings) go away and it goes back to the exact same way it was when I unpacked it. It connects to wifi and everything. I don't have it activated on a new number or anything, but I didn't want to do that without erasing the old owner's information.
Re: Won't Factory Reset
I'm stumped. Hopefully someone else will chime in. I don't think I ever heard of a reset replacing deleted data before.

Re: Won't Factory Reset
I still hope someone will chime in. There has to be a simple explanation for the phone not deleting the prior owner's data. I just don't know what it is. I'm sorry I couldn't be of any real help.

Re: Won't Factory Reset
Could the mods close this thread out? I ended up calling the company, and they said to just return it for a refund because it sounded like the phone itself was defective. That's what I'm gonna do, so thanks mrsmumbles for your input, and I'm just gonna return it.
Re: Won't Factory Reset
I'm glad you can get a replacement! :thumbup::beer:
Oops, I meant a refund!

Re: Won't Factory Reset
not that it helps now, but if data wipe fails, likely a memory write hardware failure, no way to fix. If phone was properly checked, it would have been obvious, and should not have been sold as working.

Cold War Files: All Units: People: John F. Kennedy
One of the most charismatic U.S. presidents in history, John Kennedy was born on May 29, 1917, in Boston into a prominent, wealthy Irish Catholic family. His father, Joseph P. Kennedy, served as U.S. ambassador to Britain from 1938 to 1940. The time in Europe enabled John to write "Why England Slept," a best seller. Kennedy was a Harvard graduate, also having attended Choate Preparatory School. During World War II, he served in the Navy, commanding a PT boat that was sunk by the Japanese in 1943. His wartime experience led to another successful book and helped launch his political career. Probably equally important in this regard were the political ambitions Joseph Kennedy had for his children. After the war death of his older brother Joe, John became the focus of his father's hopes, benefiting greatly from his contacts and money. In 1946, Kennedy was elected to the House of Representatives. He posed as an anti-communist, conservative Democrat. In 1952, he defeated Henry Cabot Lodge in the race for the latter's Senate seat. As a senator, Kennedy did not build an impressive legislative record. By 1954, however, he began to speak out on foreign policy issues and in 1956 made his first bid for his party's presidential nomination. In 1960 Kennedy again ran for president. He attacked the Eisenhower administration for lacking vigor in the contest with the Soviet Union. Kennedy defeated Eisenhower's vice president, Richard Nixon. In the White House, Kennedy suffered some early setbacks, such as the failed Bay of Pigs operation and the tense Vienna meeting with Soviet leader Khrushchev. The early failures only added fuel to his administration's military buildup. The president wanted U.S. forces to be more diversified than they were under his predecessor, so as to acquire "flexible response" capability instead of having to rely on nuclear weapons. Later in 1961 Kennedy appeared to be hitting his stride. In August he responded with restraint to the building of the Berlin Wall and the following year performed brilliantly during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the peaceful resolution of which is probably his greatest triumph. In 1963, the United States and Soviet Union agreed on a limited test ban treaty. Kennedy's legacy in Vietnam is more ambiguous. He increased the number of U.S. advisers from 700 to 15,000 and brought the conflict no closer to a resolution. In the domestic field Kennedy also developed while in office, eventually becoming quite supportive of the civil rights movement in the South. On November 22, 1963, Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald during a visit to Dallas, Texas. He was 46.

Bitcoin exchanges suspend conversions as hacker attack intensifies
Three online exchanges for the bitcoin virtual currency have suspended conversions into state-backed currencies, saying they are under attack from hackers suspected of trying to create fraudulent transactions.
The value of the currency has plunged as the attack has intensified, from $926 on 5 February to $530 on 12 February on MtGox, one of the affected exchanges. Bitstamp, based in Slovenia, and BTC-e, in Bulgaria, also halted withdrawals indefinitely on Wednesday as they came under attack.
The moves follow crackdowns by China in December and Russia last week on use of the cybercurrency, which some authorities fear could be used for money laundering, funding terrorism or tax evasion.
"This is a denial-of-service [DoS] attack," said Jinyoung Lee Englund, a spokeswoman for the Bitcoin Foundation, a trade organisation for exchanges. "Whoever is doing this is not stealing coins, but is succeeding in preventing some transactions from confirming. It's important to note that DoS attacks do not affect people's bitcoin wallets or funds."
In a statement, MtGox said: "A bug in the bitcoin software makes it possible for someone to use the bitcoin network to alter transaction details to make it seem like a sending of bitcoins to a bitcoin wallet did not occur when in fact it did occur. Since the transaction appears as if it has not proceeded correctly, the bitcoins may be re-sent." Such "double spending" could destroy trust in the system.

Cold still kills : cold-related illnesses in military practice freezing and non-freezing cold injury
Imray, C. (Chris). (2005) Cold still kills : cold-related illnesses in military practice freezing and non-freezing cold injury. Royal Army Medical Corps. Journal, Vol.151 (No.4). pp. 218-222. ISSN 0035-8665

Despite being one of the oldest threats to life and limb, cold exposure and consequent disorders are no less
important in modern military practice as they were during classical times. Indeed, the desire of clothing
providers to over-sell incremental improvements in protection may lead them to build unrealistic expectations, for example, claiming that a new boot will make cold injury a thing of the past (1). If only these conditions were that simple to prevent.

Reckless Seniors Fool Themselves Into Thinking They're Safe Online
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Conventional wisdom has it that age begets wisdom -- but being technologically savvy about protecting your identity and money while online is a whole different thing.
According to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, consumers age 65 and up are particularly vulnerable to online ID theft.
"Many seniors spend lifetimes building credit and saving money for their golden years, but the identity thieves steal their hard-earned savings or ruin their reputations," said FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez at a recent forum on senior identity theft .
You'd think that older Americans would get the message and be more cautious about who they share data with online, then, but in a study tracking the online habits of U.S. adults over the age of 50, they are seen as more likely to engage in "risky behavior" with their identities online, and may well be inviting cyber-criminals to track them down and try to fleece them of their cash.
The study, Fifty-Plus Booms Online , commissioned by McAfee, the Santa Clara, Calif., security solutions firm, says that the 50-Plus generation spends five hours a day online on average, but "are exposing themselves to social media reproach and dangerous security risks."
Eighty-eight percent of older Americans online, according to McAfee, say they are just as tech-savvy as their kids, and grandkids, but they are actually more likely to share personal information recklessly than younger online and social media users -- meaning with people they have never met and aren't working with on online shopping or business transactions:
- 52% of senior citizens have shared their email address online.
- 27% have shared their cellphone numbers.
- 26% have shared their home address online.
These are major no-no's, security experts say. That's especially true in online social media groups, which are much easier to crack for cyber-criminals than bank accounts or credit card accounts.
"The use of social networks among people 50-plus is trending now that it's become more commonplace across all age groups," says Michelle Dennedy, vice president and chief privacy officer at McAfee." "It seems counterintuitive that sharing personal information with strangers would not concern them, however. This further highlights their need to better understand the difference between the real and perceived dangers online and how to best protect themselves."
McAfee, of course, wants consumers to buy their online security packages, and that's a grain of salt worth taking on the study.
But some figures are alarming. For instance, about one-third of the over-50s say they have no password protection on their smartphones and tablet computers. Additionally, just under 60% of seniors say their devices are able to block viruses and malware, the favorite entry points among online identity thieves.

Mandatory Water Restrictions
The rain from beryl wasn't enough to end the drought and now the suwannee river water management district is enforcing more stringent mandatory water restrictions.
The water restrictions apply to residents, farmers and businesses.
For farmers, the good news is that the district says they will install GPS trackers for the farmers so they don't have to pay for it themselves.
One farmer, Alton Straughton has been recording his water usage for years and says he is thankful for the new restrictions.
"The more and more people requesting more water at a higher rate than there's ever been, their going to have to reach a decision in the near future."
The restrictions go into effect on June 13th and are slated to last until september 30th.
They will be lifted if our area receives an adequate amount of rain.
The district met to decide what the penalties will be if the restrictions are violated.

The game has a system which detects if you "hacked" your Pokemon, and pokesave is considered hacking. This is usually because in black and white, it is literally impossible to get a 6IV Pokemon, unless they hack and use pokegen and all the people who use pokesav usually use 6IV ones. If you RNGed a Pokemon, or get a pokesav Pokemon with 5IVs (so like a dragonite that has perfect IVs except for special attack which its moveset wouldn't need) then it may work.

Keith Ellison on voter ID approval: "Today is a sad day for democracy"
Though he no longer serves in the state legislature, Ellison is apparently following the proposed voter ID amendment closely. |
The amendment now goes before another committee before coming before the whole Senate. A companion bill in the House has not yet been scheduled for committee hearing.
Though polls show a vast majority of Minnesotans favor requiring voters to show photo ID at the polls, U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison was so outraged to see the amendment win its first legislative victory that he issued a harshly worded statement following yesterday's committee vote. Here's what he said, in part:
Today is a sad day for democracy. Earlier this afternoon, Republicans voted to turn our constitutional right to vote into a privilege. Minnesotans should be outraged...Voter ID legislation won approval in both the House and Senate last year, but the bill was ultimately vetoed by Gov. Mark Dayton. With a constitutional amendment, supporters of the bill -- mainly Republicans -- can bypass the governor.
... When it comes to civic participation, our nation has always moved in the director of greater inclusion. We need to keep that tradition going, and a photo ID amendment would do nothing but restrict Minnesotans' constitutional right to vote.
Scott Newman, R-Hutchinson, sponsors the voter ID amendment in the Senate.
The amendment, of course, is aimed at eliminating voter fraud. Bill sponsor Scott Newman, R-Hutchinson, said during yesterday's hearing that he does "think we have voter fraud here in Minnesota."
But others question whether voter fraud is a significant enough problem to justify spending an as-of-yet-undetermined amount of money to issue ID cards to eligible voters without driver's licenses. The state would presumably also have to pay for staff to check IDs on election day and the 10 days afterward. (If you forget your ID when voting, the bill allows you to cast a provisional ballot, but you'd have to show proof of identification within 10 days in order for your ballot to count.)
MPR found that roughly 113 people were convicted of voter fraud following Minnesota's 2008 general election. That's less than 1 percent of the roughly 2.9 million Minnesotans who voted.
The Minnesota Secretary of State's Office estimates the proposal would be a problem for about 215,000 current voters, primarily the elderly, disabled, students, and military personal -- all groups less likely to have a valid form of photo ID than a typical citizen.
John Harrington, D-St. Paul, characterized Republicans' voter ID drive as a solution in search of a problem.
"We're talking a microscopic number that could be charged, and I really urge you to seriously think about this," he said. "Why are we doing this? What is the need? What is the problem we're trying to solve?"
But Republicans, contra the evidence, seem to think voter fraud is a serious problem. And with 80 percent of Minnesotans favoring a photo ID requirement as of last May, the amendment's growing momentum in the Republican-controlled legislature means it's likely that Minnesota will join 33 other states in adopting some form of voter ID requirement this November.

Tourism Ireland's roadshow series around Great Britain involving about 70 Northern Ireland tourism organisations visited Glasgow last week.
The tourism roadshow – which aims to generate excitement about ni2012 and raise awareness of Northern Ireland as a fantastic holiday and short break destination – has been taking place in shopping centres in London, Glasgow and Manchester, targeting shoppers and potential holidaymakers in those high-footfall locations. The venue in Glasgow last week was the Buchanan Galleries Shopping Centre, where the participating Northern Ireland tourism organisation promoted direct to shoppers. A networking evening event was also organised by Tourism Ireland, targeting some of the main tour operators and travel agents in and around Glasgow and encouraging them to include Northern Ireland in future holiday programmes.
Vanessa Markey, Tourism Ireland's Head of Great Britain, said: "This type of roadshow, where we are able to talk directly to prospective holidaymakers around Britain, as well as to influential tour operators and travel agents, provides us with an excellent opportunity to spread the good news about Northern Ireland as a holiday and short break destination. It is proving to be an excellent platform for our tourism partners from Northern Ireland to showcase their product here in Great Britain, helping to grow tourism business in 2012 and beyond.
"We very much welcome the business and networking opportunities of this roadshow to highlight the fantastic programme of major events planned for Northern Ireland under the banner of ni2012. With the imminent opening of iconic attractions such as Titanic Belfast and the Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre, as well as events such as the Peace One Day concert at Ebrington in June, ni2012 provides a wonderful opportunity to showcase the new and vibrant Northern Ireland in Great Britain and elsewhere around the globe."
2011 marked a welcome growth for visitors from Great Britain to Northern Ireland with 772,000 GB visitors coming here during the first nine months of 2011, an increase of +6% over the same period in 2010.

"The whole week I have tried to put the 100th game in the background and make sure the team interest comes first," said Smit, whose Bok side desperately need a win over the All Blacks to keep their Tri Nations hopes alive.
"It is fantastic to reach 100 Tests and even more special to be playing the game against the All Blacks.
"It is a great honour but there are times when the milestone is less significant than the people who played a role in getting you there.
"There have been many highlights and also some low points but the successes have more than made up for the disappointments."
The 32-year-old, who made his Test debut a decade ago and assumed his country's captaincy in 2004, will become only the second South African to reach the landmark.
Smit will join former Newport star Percy Montgomery in a list of 15 players to have reached a century of caps.
There are five Lions on that list, with triple tourist Jason Leonard second behind Australia's George Gregan who made a staggering 139 appearances for the Wallabies.
Brian O'Driscoll, John Hayes and Ronan O'Gara all passed the landmark for Ireland and the Lions last season, while Gareth Thomas, who skippered the Lions in O'Driscoll's absence in 2005, is also included.
Fellow Lions Martyn Williams and Stephen Jones also look set to join that list this autumn, with the Welsh pair currently sitting on 99 and 97 caps respectively.
The 100 Club
George Gregan (Australia) 139 caps
Jason Leonard (England and the Lions) 119
Fabien Pelous (France) 118
Philippe Sella (France) 111
George Smith (Australia) 110

FTC Commissioner Rosch Says He Will Not Seek Another Term
Jan. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Thomas Rosch, a Republican member of the Federal Trade Commission who has pressed to strengthen U.S. antitrust and consumer-protection enforcement, said he won't seek to be reappointed when his term expires in September.
Rosch, 72, one of four FTC commissioners, disclosed his plans in an interview today in Washington. He was nominated to the commission by former Republican President George W. Bush, confirmed by the Senate and took office in 2006. A slot for a fifth commissioner is open.
Before serving at the FTC, Rosch distinguished himself as a litigator for corporate clients. He said he wants to return to California, where he practiced law in San Francisco.
"I have no intention at all of litigating again," he said. "Whether I fully retire is another matter."
Rosch has supported the efforts of commission Chairman Jon Leibowitz, a Democrat, to use the law that established the agency to broaden its antitrust enforcement powers. The FTC shares responsibility for enforcing antitrust law with the Justice Department.
Rosch was one of four commissioners in 2010 to agree to an FTC settlement with Intel Corp. that banned the world's largest computer chipmaker from using threats, retaliation or exclusive deals to block customers from buying competitors' products.
Rosch is known for sometimes being a maverick on the commission. In 2010 he dissented with the agency's decision to challenge Laboratory Corp. of America's acquisition of Westcliff Medical Laboratories Inc.
After a U.S. judge denied the FTC's request for a preliminary injunction, the agency dropped the case.

2 cups water
1 cup pearl (Israeli) couscous
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1 shallot, chopped
6 cloves garlic, quartered
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter, softened
Quick and easy to make and it was delicious! I was out of shallots so I used extra onion. I used regular raisins and added some chopped up dried apricots. It was really good! I will definitely make this again.
I added 2 Tbsp lemon juice (not 3), and that suited our tastes fine. An additional Tbsp would have been too lemon-y for us (personal taste). This couscous is rich with flavor, the raisins and sun dried tomatoes bring a little sweetness, and the tartness of the lemon brightens it. It was a little gummy and dry, so I did add some vegetable broth to moisten it slightly. Very nice, would make again.
7 Ratings
This was pretty good. There's not much to say about it. I threw in a can of chickpeas to make it a main dish.
I normally do not care for couscous. This recipe is sweet and delicious. Only difference I made was chopping up some blanched almonds since that's what I had on hand.
I've made this a couple of times. Easy and quick. I always leave out the butter.

"Films for all in Highland Perthshire"
Heartland Film Society is delighted to announce that as usual we will have a new season of monthly film evening screenings starting again in Septermber, and all to be shown at the Birks Cinema . Full details of dates and timings will be confirmed on the monthly Birks Cinema programme.
As the Birks Cinema has become our new home for regular HFS screenings we are pleased to announce that all paid-up Heartland Film Society Members for the 2013-14 season - priced at only £10 for the year - will qualify for tickets to each of the HFS screenings at the Birks Cinema at the specially reduced price of £4.95 ... so it is well worth joining or re-joining HFS as soon as possible to qualify for the discounted price for all HFS screenings, when purchasing your ticket from the Birks Cinema box office, in person (or on-line once systems are in place to offer you the discount for on-line bookings). In due course we anticipate that membership of the Heartland Film Society will be available directly through the Birks Cinema but for now (until those systems are set up) membership applications for the 2014-15 HFS season should be made in writing using the membership form (providing home address, telephone number and e-mail address if possible) accompanied by a cheque for £10 per person (payable to Heartland Film Society) and sent to: The Membership Secretary, Heartland Film Society, The Locus Centre, The Square, Aberfeldy, PH15 2DD Anyone applying to join HFS for the 2014-15 season should also apply separately directly to the Birks Cinema for their (free) loyalty card. This will in due course be encrypted by the cinema management to indicate that you are also a HFS member and so qualify for discounts for HFS screenings - as we are providing the cinema management with an up to date list of all paid up HFS members for the 2014-15 season. We hold a film festival every year in Aberfeldy. Our 2014 festival on Scottish Film Makers has now finished, thanks to everyone who came. The results of the short film competition can be found at the Palme Dewar website |
Heartland FIlm Society is based at the Birks Cinema in Aberfeldy. Visit their website for more information.
Are you a film maker? If so, you may wish to enter the 2014 Palme Dewar short film competition, which will be judged at the 2014 Aberfeldy Film Festival in mid November. Entry for the 2014 competition is now open.

2001 Subaru Forester Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 10 reviews
Some restyling to the front and rear ends, including new head and tail lamps and a new chrome grille for the S trim are the most noticeable changes to the 2001 Subaru Forester. The SUV that drives like a car, but has enough cargo space to handle kids, groceries, or home improvement supplies, features full-time AWD and a 2.5-liter boxer H4 engine that hits best-in-class 165-hp with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The unique design and small size of the H4 means it takes up less room, allowing for greater cabin and storage space.
All models come with ABS brakes, dual front airbags, a hill ascent assist, foglights, roof rack, and a trailer hitch. The base L is well equipped with power features and cruise control and gets the 60/40 split-fold rear seats for 2001. With both seats down, the cargo area expands to 64 cubic feet. The high-end S adds heated seats and mirrors, plus new leather trim for the wheel and shifter and new de-iced front and rear wipers. It also comes standard with a limited slip differential for better AWD performance, though the 2001 Forester's low ground clearance prohibits true off-roading. New on the S this year is a Premium Package that adds gold wheel trim and side impact bags, as well as a brand new sunroof that stretches from the front to back seats and is just under three feet wide.
A lot of drivers like the 2001 Forester because it provides what they're looking for in an SUV, but doesn't feel unwieldy or hard to park. It handles more like the Impreza platform on which it's based, and the ride is smooth and quiet. AWD capability is a big hit in northern climates, and the 20/25 mpg isn't bad for an SUV. There are some major complaints, however, including the cramped backseat and the poor location of the flimsy cupholders in front of the air vents. Owners report numerous visits to the mechanic to address a check engine light which always comes on, problems with the transmission, and sensor failures.

: : : : : : : Pedestrians are essential to the life of a large city. When we talk about how "alive" a city seems, what we mean is the number of pedestrians in the city's public space. The cities that are widely considered to be the greatest to live in or visit, such as Manhattan or Paris, are those one can walk around in for days with pleasure. If Toronto is to fulfill its long-standing desire to be one of the world's great cities, it has to bring its citizens out into the street — not only in a few prize downtown locations, but throughout the city. What makes pedestrians distinctive is that they are open and slow. These qualities enable walkers to truly experience and interact with their urban environment. As Janice Etter of Toronto's Pedestrian Planning Network points out, "when you're walking you have time to look." Encased in a vehicle, we are separated by a shell and travelling too fast to experience the city — we can see it, but not absorb it. It is on foot that we can get the tactile sensation of how a city works and fits together. Equally, only on foot are we open and accessible enough to interact with the other people who inhabit our city and so learn to feel comfortable and secure with them. Without walkers in its public spaces, an urban environment retreats into the private spaces of home, car and workplace, becoming merely a series of isolated silos that do not form a coherent whole. It is walking that knits the structures, spaces and people of a city together. There are two obvious purposes to walking in a city — for transportation, in order to get to a particular destination; or for pleasure, in order to look at interesting sights or to get exercise. These two purposes can be combined. We might choose a particular route to our destination because it is more attractive. Or we might select a destination for our pleasure walk in order to give it some structure. We can think of this kind of walking as deep pedestrianism. It is when a city spawns this kind of walking that it begins to achieve greatness, because this is when its inhabitants and visitors appreciate it as an integrated whole, not simply as a place to accomplish tasks. To achieve this state, it is not enough to simply have a few pleasant walks, whether a pretty shopping street or a lovely nature trail. Nor is it enough to simply plan residential areas within walking distance of useful destinations, such as retail or employment. In order for deep pedestrianism to thrive, the city as a whole must be integrated into a great pedestrian experience and must seek, not just to tolerate, but to seduce pedestrians into its public space. But how do we create this great pedestrian city? What follows is a list of some of the most essential elements that attract pedestrians into public space. Pedestrian Space A fine example of how a bit of extra space can draw pedestrians is the wider sidewalk on the north side of Queen Street West between SoHo and Spadina, which is always bustling with activity. An example of the damage a lack of space can do is visible one block west, at Beverly, where the relatively new Caban building was built to a narrow sidewalk. Instead of using the opportunity to expand the thriving pedestrian zone, this building perpetuates a little dead area that people hurry by between the wider spaces on either side. Too many of Toronto's sidewalks, if they exist at all, are narrow, suggesting pedestrianism is no more than tolerated. The most basic step the city can take to encourage pedestrians is to build sidewalks where there are none, widen sidewalks where they are narrow, and enforce setbacks from the street, enabling wider sidewalks, in all new construction. Under pressure from pedestrian activists, the city has already embarked on a project to add sidewalks to the 130km of major roads where they are missing; a good start, but there is much more to do. To really stimulate walking, the city can create true pedestrian zones, temporary or permanent, building on the encouraging model of the car-free Kensington Market and Church Street that will begin this summer. The city can encourage the creation of destinations by systematically encouraging shopping, work and residential areas to exist within walking distance of each other. The city can also stimulate walking directly by strategically seeding the city with destinations such as municipal services (libraries, schools), parks and other attractions that are easily accessible by foot. Human Scale The most common enemies of these proportions are the wide empty spaces of the suburbs, where every destination seems too far to walk to, and massive tall buildings that overwhelm the space around them. The "avenues" and "centres" strategy in Toronto's new official plan, in which major streets and core areas in the suburbs will be made more urban through denser buildings closely linked with improved pedestrian zones, could go a long way towards expanding the area of Toronto that is built to a human scale — but the city will have to systematically enforce zoning to ensure that the balance is not tipped the other way, towards overwhelming buildings that are equally out of proportion. North York's dire "downtown" on Yonge between Sheppard and Finch is a cautionary example of what can go wrong. Of course, cities themselves are by definition beyond human scale — it is impractical to walk all the way across them. To bring cities back to a human scale, one needs regular, reliable and fast public transit, to bring distant parts of the city within reach of someone on foot. article continues on next page Popcicle Test The problem is far too complex for one thing to make a difference, but how about two things, just for starters? Increase urban densities and improve public transit. The main reason Toronto isn't more pedestrian friendly is that we lack the compact form and density of European cities, as well as the cheap, efficient, and accessible systems of public transit that such forms support. The City's plan to increase densities along main streets is a start, as are proposals for transit right-of-ways, but driving and parking must become much more expensive and unpleasant to break the addiction to private cars. 'Walks to the Water' One of the great pedestrian divides in Toronto is the inhospitable passage from the established part of the city north of Front Street and east of Yonge Street, the Esplanade and Mill Street to the central waterfront. While it is physically possible to cross these relatively short distances on foot on Cherry Street, Parliament, Sherbourne, Jarvis, Yonge, Bay, York, Spadina, Bathurst and even on Strachan, not one of these walks is inviting.

What's needed to make Toronto a great pedestrian city?
by Dylan Reid
photo by Adam Krawesky
But there is also a kind of walking in the city that transcends these two purposes. It is walking as a way of living the city, without a single purpose or destination. It includes being out on the street to see and be seen, to shop or eat or drink at multiple locations which you may not even have in mind when you set out, to cross paths and hang out with friends, to do chores or explore new spaces as the opportunity arises. Other forms of transportation, even bicycles, bring you to specific destinations or achieve specific goals. Only with walking can you browse a city, interact with it, and truly get to know it.
Pedestrians need to be welcomed with a defined zone that is specifically for them. At its most essential, that means sidewalks on streets and paths in parkland. To really bring pedestrians out, this pedestrian zone has to be spacious and well-defined. Obstacles on sidewalks affect this pedestrian space. Sandwich boards, poorly sited garbage cans, uncollected garbage, dog crap, or unplowed snow restrict and discourage walkers.
To get people out on the street, you need places for them to go that are within walking distance. The destination could be as humble as a post box, as practical as a store, or as diverting as a pleasing walk in a park (see Popsicle Test sidebar).
Pedestrians are, by definition, human sized and move at human speed — so a pedestrian-friendly city has to be built in dimensions that are specifically suited to a human on foot. There are well-understood, balanced proportions between sidewalk, road and adjacent buildings that create the most attractive environment for pedestrians.
To test whether there are sufficient destinations for pedestrians, Dan Burden of Walkable Communities, Inc. has proposed The Popsicle Test: At every location there must be some destination worth walking to, close enough that if you walk there to get a popsicle, you could walk there in comfort and walk back without it melting. Since Burden lives in sunny Florida, the test is quite a stringent one.

are downright discouraging and bleak. Eventually they may be improved by redevelopment along the routes, but at the current rate this could take forever. Why not show a positive sign now and make modest investments in making these into great 'Walks to the Water' with improved paving, lighting, street furniture, planting, signage, and public art?

Lighten a DAO Beretta 96 trigger pull
Does any one know if it is possible to lighten a Beretta 96 DAO trigger pull? I have a friend who carries this and would like a lighter trigger, but does not want to get rid of this gun.

A slightly lighter hammer spring would help. Wolff also offers a trigger modification that supposedly makes the trigger smoother and less "stagy."
http://www.gunsprings.com/Semi-Auto%...ID1/mID2/dID36 I have no personal experience with the trigger mod, but have heard good comments. It's not that expensive. |

So, yours has a polymer trigger? (I wonder if you can also replace the trigger. That's a relatively low cost to get something that feels better to you.)
For me, the trigger is everything. You could have a local gunsmith do a trigger (or action) job -- if you like it that much. |

the wolff conversion unit absolutely will not make your trigger pull any lighter...
a couple guys have noted a 1 lb increase in the stock power unit and the same (sometimes a little grittier) pull weight with the reduced power unit. the INS unit is not what you're looking for.. all that'll help is a serious trigger job...not just a $2 garage trigger job. posted by a member on the berettaforum who shoots USPSA and IDPA..

Custom gunsmith work on Beretta 96/92 D(DA only) pistols...
If the Beretta pistol is meant for protection or duty use, I highly suggest a hone or smoother pull not a light trigger pull.
It could cause problems to ignite or fire pistol rounds. I'd look at the top Beretta pistolsmith David Olhasso; www.Olhasso.com or refer to www.Americanpistol.com . Brownells may have a few parts & kits too. Gun press writer & tactics instructor "Chuck Taylor" also wrote years ago that some LAPD armorers would swap out a full size 1911a1 .45acp spring and use it on issue 92F 9x19mm models. Taylor wrote it was smoother but as I posted, I'm not sure how it may effect ignition. ClydeFrog |

I used a 16 lb 1911 spring on my Beretta 92D Centurion and it worked great. If it is too light for you then move up to the 18 lb.

Both boots are really similar. They are extremely lightweight, both have b3 gel cushioning, and are both super light. If you are able to try them on, I would try both of them on since they have different liners and see which one you prefer.

Yeah, they would both be good for all mountain and park/jumping. Generally, a sofer flexing boot is preferred for park, but since they are so close in flex rating, it won't really matter which one you go with. That's why you should try them if you can. One might feel a little better, or you might prefer the traditional laces to the speed lacing.

What does it mean to do community-driven research?
This seemingly innocuous question is overlain with conflicting politics, tensions and ethics along with the potential for social change that attracts many activist-scholars to this form of research in the first place. During this seminar, I will attempt to conceptualize a reflexive assessment of praxis by drawing on five years of participatory action research with community groups, organizations and residents in the inner suburban region of Southeast Scarborough.
My entry to this community, and to this talk, begins with a failed struggle to prevent the demolition and displacement of public space through policy-supported demolition of a community mall. But next I tell the story of how this loss has segued into a grassroots attempt to re-spatialize the barriers of inequality between city and inner suburbs in response to processes of gentrification and suburban decline. With an emphasis on change, I focus on the imbrications between politics, research and activism through exploration of three key questions: How do we, as researchers, maintain long-term commitment to an evolving community development project? How do we build and maintain effective relationships with communities that support residents as experts? How do we deal with struggles, conflict and transition? Through reflection on shared struggles, successes and failures over the course of a long-term community development project, I hope to spark discussion over how we can best position ourselves and evaluate our work as scholar-activists.

CS Grad Aids NYC
Adam Pennington (CS '01), a software engineer at Hewlett-Packard in Florham Park, N.J., volunteered as a member of a disaster management team to help in New York City after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11.
Pennington's expertise in ham radio communications helped the Red Cross to set up a fast, effective alternative communication system. According to Foster's Online, a New England news Web site, he arrived in New York 36 hours after the attacks and began working 12- to 18-hour shifts.
While he was helping to rebuild New York's infrastructure, Pennington intermittently returned to his job at Hewlett-Packard. This month the company closed its Florham Park office due to the worsening economy.
Pennington has returned to the Pittsburgh area to find work or to attend graduate school, his mother, Ellen Pennington, said.
"Carnegie Mellon is creating responsible compassionate adults," said Pennington's parents, Ellen and Rohe, in an email to President Jared L. Cohon. "We are very proud of our son and very glad he went to Carnegie Mellon. We thought you would like to see something positive that came from the tragedy."

text: HighSpeedHalo welcomes two new speedrunners, Chrizzel & Robinsky for their first submissions of speedruns. Their 4 submissions of single-player and co-op runs give Cortana some more speedrunning-love, knocking off almost a minute from the previous runs. The duo show off a particularly useful grenade-jump into a equipment jump that leaves what Chrizzel's calls the "maze room" in the dust.
