01.11.2012 - How to invest in the Australian (property) dream |
Lost amid the furor of the U.S. elections and quarterly earnings, a report last week showcased one country as having the worlds highest median wealth, plentiful land, sparse population, substantial natural resources and a high quality of life. Central to the countrys wealth creation has been its active and resilient property sector, which also sports one of the highest rates of individual property ownership in the world. No need to call the bank or your agent. The easiest way to tap into this wealth is through an investment in Australias online real-estate companies, which are growing at a healthy clip and trading at half the values of their cashed-up and hungry overseas competitors...............................................Full Article: Source |

The Security Week That Was: A Recap - Dec. 2-8, 2006
SecurityInfoWatch.com doesn't normally closely follow stories of convenience store robberies, but there was a story on the wire this morning that piqued our interest mainly because we thought that the tragedy of it could have been avoided, and I want to use this story as a brief education talking point for both security directors, security officers and even security installing dealers.
The story happened in the Houston area, where a man robbed a gas station and then struck off in a car. A Good Samaritan -- a local volunteer firefighter who happened to be on the scene -- pursued the thief's vehicle in his own car and was on the phone to police dispatchers when he was reportedly shot dead by the thief he was pursuing. That's the tragedy of the story, but the aside on this is that the gas station had a video surveillance system. Except it's not that easy… According to the news story on the shooting, the video recorder was broken and therefore no surveillance footage from inside the store was unavailable to help identify who the murderer was. Read the full story at this link.
There are three lessons here. The first is for your security officers, who encounter these situations in their line of work. The lesson there is if the job calls for observe and report duties, then that duty needs to be done in the safest manner possible. The contents of a cash register are not worth the cost of a life; maintain a safe distance as you record the situation and information like tag numbers. The second lesson is for the security director or the business owner who oversees security. Equipment purchases are not a one-time expenditure; budgets need to be created for maintenance. Develop a sound plan, also, for checking to see that equipment is working so that video systems are checked at least once a week, if not daily. Neither a $10,000 DVR nor a $150 VCR are worth the shelf space they're taking if they are not functional. Finally, for security installing companies, have you considered the possibility of long-after-the-sale maintenance calls? Is it in your marketing plan to follow up with a postcard to former clients asking them if that surveillance system you installed five years ago needs service? The fact is that most business owners look at security equipment as a "buy it once and then forget about it" type of expenditure. With digital systems where they don't have to swap tapes, it's even easier for them to forget to check their recording systems. It's your role to remind them that security is an ongoing process (and so is maintenance).
Dallas continues to stir the pot
Industry and police at odds over new statistics
The Dallas Police Department, which earlier this year got its wish of a verified response policy for commercial alarm systems, is out with data claiming that the program works. The DPD reports that there were almost 19,000 fewer alarm calls in November than March due to the policy. But local alarm industry leaders are saying, "That's great – but what about the crime increase?" Business robberies have gone up about 3 percent in the same time period. It may be too early to tell whether this policy was a good one for Dallas citizens.
Widening the surveillance angle
Korean researchers create new design for wide-angle lenses
Some years ago, I pulled in a little extra income by working as a magazine photographer. One of my favorite lenses was the wide-angle lens, which allowed me to capture the scene just as if I was seeing it through my own eyes – which can see a panorama. One of the challenges, of course, was that the wide-angle lens tended to distort the image, so that it felt "bent". On the surveillance side, software like DvTel's SceneTracker overcame this problem of not having a wide enough perspective by stitching images together (the SceneTracker does more than just stitch images into a wider perspective, but that's the basis for the system). And wide-angle lenses became available for surveillance cameras, but with these lenses you either ended up with a fisheye type perspective or a typically panoramic view with a narrow height, a lot of width and some bending. However, if the news out of Korea's research community is correct, then advancements from Homan University in South Korea may solve this wide angle problem. The research team thinks it has created a lens that is not only cheap and easily produced, but also gives a 151-degree field of view (yes, 151 degrees!) without the bending. CCTV system designers are probably salivating at their desks.
Yet another headache for security directors
VoIP wiretapping a new concern
Security of VoIP systems is a new concern. Scanit, a security consulting and management firm is warning that phone tapping has been made easier because of lax VoIP security, and that many businesses in the Middle East are falling prey to this trend. In fact, Cisco's public relations department issued a similar statement about VoIP security this week when it said "Message tampering, eavesdropping, voice spam, registration hijacking, server impersonation, session teardown and denial of service are some of the security risks companies might be exposed to if they do not take appropriate security measures." The systems' weaknesses don't usually stem from placing an electronic bug on a phone; instead the systems are hacked. Chalk this up as the newest converged security threat.

Better to require parents to give consent than to have to opt out.
A lab technician reviewed results of a newborn screen at the Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus.
Photo: Kristyna Wentz-Graff • Milwaukee Journal Sentinel/MCT,
In a recent commentary, five hospital executives tried to frighten Minnesotans into thinking that if a proposed bill isn't passed in the Legislature, their babies' lives will be in danger ("The case for keeping newborn test results," March 1).
The truth is that Senate File 2047 and House File 2526 would not change newborn screening. Rather, this legislation focuses on what would happen after the screening is done. It would repeal a current law that requires parental consent for the government to store and use newborn DNA and babies' genetic data. Essentially, this legislation ends genetic privacy.
A Minnesota Supreme Court decision in November 2011 ruled in favor of 21 Minnesota families who sued the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) over its secretly storing their babies' DNA. MDH, which began storing and using genetic test results and baby DNA in 1986 without legislative authority, had argued that newborn-screening blood spots are not genetic information. But the Supreme Court found it in violation of the state's genetic privacy law. A settlement earlier this year required MDH to discard the illegally stored DNA of about 1 million babies.
Now, MDH and others who support research without consent are attempting to get around that ruling. The new legislation, which two committees already have approved, will undo the consent requirements now in law because of the Supreme Court decision and put the handling of our children's private genetic data back in the hands of the government.
MDH and some hospital executives think they should be able to store and conduct research on the genetic blueprint of 70,000 babies born every year in Minnesota — forever. The Citizens' Council for Health Freedom strongly disagrees.
We believe in newborn screening for the health and safety of our state's youngest residents. But it is unnecessary to keep their genetic information without parental consent. As current law requires, 71 days after newborn screening is completed, the blood spots used for the tests should be destroyed unless parents give written informed consent. Currently, after 24 months, genetic test results are also destroyed, unless there is parental consent.
This year's bills replace consent with dissent, meaning parents must first learn about the practice of storing their babies' genetic data and then apply to the government to leave the storage and research program. Today, the Health Department can't do anything until the parent signs a consent form — and we think that's the way it should be. The ACLU, in a May 14, 2010, letter to the federal newborn screening advisory committee, agreed, calling for express informed consent.
Parents also think that's the way it should be. A study out of the University of Michigan, "Not Without My Permission," found that three-quarters of parents support parental consent for research. They want to be asked before their child's DNA is analyzed. If they approve of the research, they'll likely give their consent.
Permission will become even more important as genomic sequencing advances. Last September, the federal government awarded $25 million to four institutions to develop a genomic-sequencing program for newborn screening. This would detail every part of the child's genetic code — at birth. Under the proposed Minnesota legislation, the genetic code, along with the child's DNA, would be held by state government. As cost containment becomes the push of health care reform, where could this lead? What could government officials decide to do when they hold the genetic code of every child — when they know the potential health care conditions of every citizen from birth?
Proponents of the legislation say parents would still have a choice. They could opt out. True enough, but that's not consent. It's not even a real choice. The fact is, many parents can't remember the newborn screening being done. If they remember, they think it is the hospital laboratory doing the test. They have no reason to think that it's a government program or that the government would store and use the child's DNA for research without their consent.
Minnesota has had parental consent requirements for two years. If this legislation becomes law, we'll move from sunshine back to secrecy. This must not happen.

"I knew people would ask questions," the R&B singer says about his now-famous letter.
Frank Ocean is finally clearing up any ambiguity stemming from his bold letter...or is he?
The R&B singer, whose debut album Channel Orange has received critical raves, broke his silence on the topic of his sexuality to UK newspaper The Guardian:
"I knew that I was writing in a way that people would ask questions," Ocean acknowledges. "I knew that my star was rising, and I knew that if I waited I would always have somebody that I respected be able to encourage me to wait longer, to not say it till who knows when."
While he stops just short of declaring that he's gay, Ocean does say he feels relieved. The Odd Future member says he wants "to feel like I'm living a life where I'm not just successful on paper, but sure that I'm happy when I wake up in the morning, and not with this freakin' boulder on my chest."
As for his lyrics, which sometimes reference relationships with men, he says:
"When you write a song like 'Forrest Gump,' the subject can't be androgynous. It requires an unnecessary amount of effort. I don't fear anybody. So, to answer your question, yes, I could have easily changed the words. But for what?"
Ocean's letter, in which he reveals a past relationship with a man, has been met with tremendous support from within the hip hop community, with artists like Beyoncé, 50 Cent and Tyler, the Creator publicly applauding him for his honesty.
And the move hasn't hurt his record sales either. Channel Orange debuted at No. 2 on the US pop charts and has already sold upwards of 131,000 copies according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Released: Feb 01st, 2006
Running Time: 83
Directors: D Wise, Playboy T
Company: Multimedia Pictures. D
Wise, Sophie Dee, D. Wise, Serena Marcus, Eden (I), Samantha Fox
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gonzo
D. Wise has just returned to California from a trip home to New York where he had his fill of black women. Now, the African-American stud is looking to chase some white booty since, according to him, white girls on the West Coast love black dick. It sounds like a tough life Wise is living. He appears to be correct, of course, because he really doesn't have to do much chasing, which makes things easier for him. Four blondes and one redhead barely hesitate to pounce on Wise's meat in an interracial production that never really gets cooking.
Give credit to Wise and his co-director Playboy T for keeping the proceedings simple and succinct, but most of the sex is completely standard. Wise's roll with the English Sophie Dee is the only scene that remotely approaches the boiling point, but even it, is pretty average. Additionally, Serena Marcus is mistakenly billed as Serena Sin, so everyone will want to take note of that.
Retailing: It's passable interracial filler.

AP and The Wall Street Journal report a deal between Intel and Sun Microsystems will be announced as early as today involving Sun's plans to purchase Intel chips for use in its servers, according to a person briefed on the deal. Sun is seen embracing Intel's Xeon processors again, after about a two year period in which Sun opted to exclusively use AMD's Opteron processors given their lower power consumption. Intel reportedly may endorse Sun's Solaris operating system. Bank of America Securities analyst Sumit Dhanda started the rumor of a Sun-Intel partnership last Friday in a research note, basing his prediction on unspecified channel checks. He said Intel could potentially gain 50% of Sun's x86 business, which would result in a $25m to $50m loss of revenues for AMD and lower its annual EPS by about $0.01 to $0.02. Dhanda added that "[W]hile the impact to Intel financials is not meaningful in the near-term, we think the shift away from AMD bodes well for momentum in Intel's server business over the course of the upcoming quarters." Sun will continue to use AMD chips according to sources.

A feld experiment was conducted at KVK, Srinagar during two consecutive kharif seasons of 2008–09 and 2009–10 to study the "Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management for Soybean (Glycine max L.) Under Temperate Conditions". The experiment was laid out under 18 treatment combinations viz., three levels of recommended inorganic fertilizers (50, 75 and 100% RD), three levels of organic manures (control, FYM 10 t ha−1 and Dalweed 10 t ha−1) and two levels of biofertilizers (control and dual inoculation with Rhizobium + PSB) in randomised complete block design with three replications. The results revealed that grain and straw yield increased signifcantly with increase in the recommended inorganic levels. Application of FYM @ 10 t ha−1 showed signifcantly superior results over other organic treatments. Dual inoculation with Rhizobium and PSB showed signifcantly superior results over no inoculation. Yield attributing characters viz. 100-seed weight and number of nodules showed signifcant increase with increasing levels of recommended inorganic fertilizers. Application of 75% recommended inorganic fertilizer level showed highest 100-seed weight over other levels. Organic fertilizers also showed signifcantly superior results. Among organics, FYM (10 t ha−1) was found superior than Dalweed (10 t ha−1) for yield attributes.

Does IPL hurt to have done?
Is IPL Treatment Painful?
Doctor Answers 22
Also, the cooling apparatuses now used are much more sophisticated, giving an even more comfortable treatment experience. You should always have these treatments done at an office of a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon, and check with them on which machine they are using. Make sure it is one of the newer models with a squared pulse: Lumenis One, Lumenis M22 and Alma Harmony are some of these devices in 2014.
Web reference: http://www.goldskincare.com/photorejuvenation/
IPL (intense pulsed light) or photofacial laser treatment can be painful depending on the type of laser machine that your doctor has. Discomfort can be minimized with numbing cream followed by Saran wrap to be applied 45-60 minutes prior to IPL treatment.

We've heard and answered this question many times with our new patients. While the industry standard answer is that it feels like a rubber band snapping on the face, we like Dr. Hedden's description a bit better. Hot grease splatter is a pretty accurate description. Variations in the pain level can be attributed to the individual pain tolerance, gender (men are bigger babies), condition being treated, device being used and the treatment settings.

Yes, IPL can be uncomfortable at the time of treatment. Some people attribute it to hot grease popping out on you. IPL has been described to feel like a bad sunburn after the initital treatment.Redness and irritation usually last only a couple of hours with the help of topical hydrocortisone1% applied immediately after. Chemical peel at a light percentage can also treat pigmented areas.

IPL is not supposed to be unbearable.. but you should feel something when undergoing treatment. Make sure the technician is certified and does all the necessary tests prior to your treatment..i.e Fitzpatrick skin test, and spot test to ensure that you are a good candidate for IPL
Undergoing IPL / BBL treatments should not cause significant discomfort. We do not use any topical anesthetic for patients undergoing these treatments alone as they tolerate the procedure very well with only the use of refrigerated gel and a gentle breeze with a fan in the room. The addition of topical anesthetic actually decreases the safety factor of the treatment as the patient is not able to give feedback to the provider on how their skin feels during the course of the treatment.
I use the Sciton Joule platform to perform Broad Band Light treatments and this device provides excellent results with a large sapphire crystal to cool and protect the epidermis appropriately.

Treatment with IPL feels like a cool rubber band snap. Some patients are able to tolerate this well, but for those that find it painful, topical numbing cream can be used that can make the procedure completely painless.
IPL treatments feel like a quick snappy sting but with the application of cold gel and blowing of cold air you scarcely feel anything. Seek a provider who uses the cold gel and Zimmer cold air.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said Wednesday that delays and cost overruns plaguing the FBI's computerized case management system, which are detailed in a new FBI inspector general's report, are "alarming."
The report from Justice Department Inspector General Glenn Fine's office examined the status of the FBI's Sentinel case management system and found "significant additional issues that we believe can affect the full and successful implementation of Sentinel." The report is the seventh in a series of IG reports that have monitored the progress of the $450 million Sentinel system, which was estimated to be completed in December 2009.
"Our review found that as of August 2010, after spending about $405 million of the $451 million budgeted for the Sentinel project, the FBI has delivered only two of Sentinel's four phases to its agents and analysts. Moreover, we believe that the most challenging development work for Sentinel still remains," the IG report found. "In addition, we found that while Sentinel has delivered some improvements to the FBI's case management system, it has not delivered much of what it originally intended."
In a statement, Leahy voiced concern that the latest IG report once again found problems with Sentinel and pledged continued oversight of the system until it is "working as it should be."
"Information exchange is critical to protecting our national security," Leahy said. " These stumbles continue to be alarming."

Customer Reviews
- This little board works wonders and save a heck of a loads of time when it comes to continuous fling at the field. I love the ability to charge multiple batteries all at once. The board works great and it is very reliable. Durability and design makes this little beauty a neat tool to have in your tool box.
I waited quite a while before purchasing a charger. After reviewing and comparing, I decided to go with the 208B setup. Very happy I did. It is everything I expected. First rate!
Great board!
Make sure batteries all have similar voltages before charging simultaneously. One way to do this is by connecting all your batteries to the board with the charger OFF. This will balance the batteries.
Although you can balance the batteries by simply plugging them into the board - you still want to make sure the voltages are somewhat similar.
NOTE: for MQX batteries, you'll need a JST to micro adapter for each batt - just like the adapter that comes in the MQX box.
I plan to by another board from Progressive for my 3 - 6S batts.
P.S. Thanks for the piece of candy you placed in my order - nice touch! ;)
You've got a new customer.

'The trouble with gribbles' may actually be a boon for biofuel industry
"Silly Earthlings, your puny docks are no match for our mighty digestive enzymes" - A gribble poses for a mugshot
Article Summary
Just what, you may ask, is a gribble? It's a tiny marine isopod, and it eats wood. For centuries, they destroyed wooden ships. Today, they continue to munch away on docks and piers. Unlike creatures such as termites, however, gribbles have no helpful microbes in their digestive system to help them digest wood - they themselves possess the enzymes necessary for converting it to sugar. British researchers are now suggesting that what works for the gribbles could also work for converting wood waste and straw into liquid biofuels.

Depolarization and blurring of optical images by biological tissue
JOSA A, Vol. 18, Issue 4, pp. 948-960 (2001)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (274 KB)
We present a study of the image blurring and depolarization resulting from the transmission of a narrow beam of light through a continuous random medium. We investigate the dependence of image quality degradation and of depolarization on optical thickness, correlation length of the inhomogeneities, and incident polarization state. This is done numerically with a Monte Carlo method based on a transport equation that takes into account polarization of light. We compare our results with those for transport in media with discrete spherical scatterers. We show that depolarization effects are different in these two models of biological tissue.

dc.description.abstract | Due to the rapid growth of wireless technology, there has been a growing interest in the capabilities of ad hoc networks connecting mobile phones, PDAs and laptop computers. The distributed and self-configurable capabilities of ad hoc networks make them very attractive for some applications such as tactical communication for military, search and rescue mission, disaster recovery, conferences, lectures, etc. In this thesis, we describe several new time scheduling algorithms for multihop packet radio networks; MaxThrou, MinDelay, ECTS (Energy Conserving Transmission Scheduling) and LA-TSMA (Location-Aided Time-Spread Multiple-Access). The MaxThrou and MinDelay algorithms focus on maximizing the system throughput and minimizing the delay bound by using constant weight codes. In these algorithms, each mobile host is assigned a word from an appropriate constant weight code of length n, distance d and weight w. The host can send a message at the j[superscript th] slot provided the assigned code has a 1 in this j[superscript th] bit. The MaxThrou and MinDelay scheduling algorithms are better than the previously known algorithms in terms of the minimum throughput per node and/or the delay bound. Since most of mobile hosts are operated using the scarce battery, and the battery life is not expected to increase significantly in the near future, energy efficiency is a critical issue in ad hoc networks. The ECTS algorithm conserves the power using strategies that allow the network interface to use the low power sleep mode instead of the idle mode, and also eliminates data collisions by introducing Request-To-Send (RTS) and Clear-To-Send (CTS) control slots. Simulation study shows that the ECTS algorithm outperforms previously known protocols. Due to the increasing popularity of mobile networking systems, the scalability becomes a significant new challenge for ad hoc network protocols. To provide a scalable solution for mobile ad hoc networks, we introduce the LA-TSMA algorithm. Instead of assigning a globally unique TSV to each host as done in previous topology-transparent scheduling algorithms, the proposed algorithm assigns a locally unique TSV to each host. In LA-TSMA, a territory is divided into zones, and the mobile hosts located in different zones can be assigned the same TSV. | en_US |

With the decline of Ashikaga power in the 1560s, the feudal barons, or daimyos, began their struggle for control of Japan. The ensuing four decades of constant warfare are known as the Momoyama (Peach Hill) period. The name derives from the site, in a Kyoto suburb, on which Toyotomi Hideyoshi (15361598) built his Fushimi Castle. Unity was gradually restored through the efforts of three warlords. The first, Oda Nobunaga (15341582), took control of Kyoto and deposed the last Ashikaga shogun through military might and political acuity. He was followed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who continued the campaign to reunite Japan. Peace was finally restored by one of Hideyoshi's generals, Tokugawa Ieyasu (15421616).
The decorative style that is the hallmark of Momoyama art had its inception in the early sixteenth century and lasted well into the seventeenth. On the one hand, the art of this period was characterized by a robust, opulent, and dynamic style, with gold lavishly applied to architecture, furnishings, paintings, and garments. The ostentatiously decorated fortresses built by the daimyo for protection and to flaunt their newly acquired power exemplified this grandeur. On the other hand, the military elite also supported a counter-aesthetic of rustic simplicity, most fully expressed in the form of the tea ceremony that favored weathered, unpretentious, and imperfect settings and utensils.
During this era, the attention of the Japanese was more than usually drawn beyond its shores. In addition to the continued trade with and travel to and from China and Korea, Toyotomi Hideyoshi instigated two devastating invasions of the Korean peninsula with the ultimate goal of invading China. The arrival of Portuguese and Dutch merchants and Catholic missionaries brought an awareness of different religions, new technologies, and previously unknown markets and goods to Japanese society. Over time, these foreign influences blended with native Japanese culture in myriad and long-lasting ways.

what are you doing?
Trying to figure out where all that bad WIP came from.
Waiting for UPS to collect a parcel. They should have collected between 3 and 5pm - I got home from work at what I thought was a reasonable 2.30 to find a card saying they had called at 1.45. It said they had called but you were out. I know that! I was at work - that's why I booked a 3-5 slot!! Re-booked for before 5 today and still no show....
That'll be why they're also known as the Useless Parcel Service! My house apparently doesn't exist in their world (don't get me started) although DPD (aka Dependable Parcel Deliveries in our house) don't seem to have any problem whatsoever!

Coherence theory of a laser beam passing through a moving diffuser |
Optics Express, Vol. 21, Issue 11, pp. 13032-13039 (2013)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (2148 KB)
Abstract: We present the general coherence theory for laser beams passing through a moving diffuser. The temporal coherence of laser beams passing through a moving diffuser depends on two characteristic temporal scales: the laser coherence time and the mean time it takes the diffuser to move past a phase correlation area. In most applications, the former is much shorter than the latter. Our theoretical analysis shows the spatial coherence area of light scattered from a moving diffuser decreases while the coherence time remains unchanged. The conclusion has been confirmed by experiments using a Michelson interferometer and it is not in accordance with the original coherence theory in which both the temporal and spatial coherence of light scattered by a moving diffuser decrease. We also developed a method based on the theory of eigenvalues to calculate the speckle contrast on a screen illuminated by light transmitted through a moving diffuser.

Outbreaks of Hand Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) have occurred in many parts of the world especially in China. We aimed to summarize the characteristics of the levels of blood glucose and white blood cell (WBC) counts in cases of HFMD in Mainland China and Taiwan, using meta-analysis based on systematic review of published articles.
We systematically reviewed published studies, from the MEDLINE and WANFANG Data, about the levels of blood glucose and WBC counts in cases of HFMD until 15th June 2011, and quantitatively summarized the characteristics of them using meta-analysis.
In total, 37 studies were included in this review. In Mainland China and Taiwan, generally, the average level of blood glucose, the prevalence of hyperglycemia, WBC counts and the prevalence of leukocytosis increased with the severity of the illness. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of leukocytosis between ANS (autonomic nervous system dysregulation)/PE (pulmonary edema) group and CNS (central nervous system) group, and in the average level of blood glucose between healthy controls and mild cases of HFMD. WBC counts in cases infected by EV71 were less than those in cases infected by CA16.
our analyses indicated that blood glucose and WBC counts increased with the severity of HFMD disease, which would help doctors to manage patients efficiently.

Construction on The Charles at 1355 First Avenue is underway, after a drawn-out saga leading up to financing, and Wired New York forumer EastMillinocket snapped the above photos. Designed by Ismael Leyva, 1355 First Avenue's developer is Bluerock Real Estate, and the building will rise a total of 31 floors. With only 29 units, residences will certainly be large – the tower's Upper East Side location isn't the worst, either, especially with the imminent opening of the Second Avenue Subway.
Renderings of the project are what one would expect for typical new residential construction on the Upper East, and the all-glass tower portion will sit above a small and contextual white base. The Charles also features a minor cantilever, adding random variety to what would otherwise be a simple box – the tower saw several iterations over the course of the proposal process, though none deviated too far from the 'glass box' norm.
Completion should occur in 2014, and units are already on-sale, priced between $5 and $15 million.

A former fishing village boasts a vibrant waterfront and an esplanade lined with posh shops and restaurants.
From Bridgeway, the main street of Sausalito, Calif., you can see why this bayside town just north of the Golden Gate Bridge is often compared to a Mediterranean fishing village. Bay-windowed homes cling to steep hillsides and look out to sky-and-water-framed views of Alcatraz and the San Francisco cityscape. Sailboats, kayaks, and ferries glide by just offshore while shops and galleries lure visitors. But whether you want to enjoy the views or the local scene, winter is the perfect time to explore Sausalito and avoid the summer crowds.
Along the esplanade, the aroma of grilled fish wafts out of waterfront eateries, and high-end shops and galleries display their wares. One versatile place, Studio 333 on Caledonia Street, carries custom design furniture and the work of more than 20 local artists. Nearby, Edith Caldwell's Five Star Station sells old and new art, clothes, and furniture in a 1920s gas station. You'll discover wine country–inspired creations at Bacchus & Venus on Bridgeway, where for as little as $10 you can sample flights of California boutique wines.
Head north of downtown to leave behind the strip of ritzy stores and explore the waterfront, including its thriving houseboat community. On a walking tour with artist-author Victoria Colella, you'll also see a wide variety of classic wooden boats and the harbor area where Liberty ships were built during World War II. "We have some amazing treasures," Colella says, "like the 1888 Yellow Ferry, the oldest surviving wooden-hull ferry on the West Coast."
A little farther on, the calm of Richardson Bay is perfect for smaller craft. If weather permits, consider a full-moon kayak paddle with Sea Trek Ocean Kayaking Center—they will outfit you fully, and novices are welcome.
Despite the four-digit Brioni suits and Movado watches for sale on Bridgeway, you can locate bargains in town. Stroll along Gate 5 Road until you reach the Heath Ceramics factory—in business since 1948—selling seconds of elegant pottery at reduced prices. Nearby, the Industrial Center Building houses 80 artists' workspaces and invites the public twice a year during open studios. The ground floor holds West Marine Products, a great place to find seaworthy gifts such as a brass-and-copper bosun's whistle for $16 or a $15 flashlight that turns on when you shake it. Back on Bridgeway, check out the Bay Model Visitor Center to see a 3-D over-view of San Francisco Bay with tides surging in and out.
For a taste of Sausalito's Mediterranean soul, dine at Cork, which serves antipasti, panini, and other small plates. Sushi Ran, on Caledonia, is not cheap but prepares tasty sashimi for a well-heeled clientele. Stop by if you'd like a glimpse of the jet-setters who keep much of this town an exclusive, expensive enclave.

February 12, 2013 European Jewish Parliament to EU: no half-measures on Hezbollah |
Members of the European Jewish Parliament have urged 27 foreign ministers to avoid the "error and half-measure" of calling only Hezbollah's military wing a terrorist entity. "Let us insist on the fact that there is no distinction between Hezbollah's 'political wing' and 'military wing,'" members of the European Jewish Parliament – a Brussels-based body founded in 2011 – from the European Union's 27 member states wrote in letters sent on Tuesday to their respective foreign ministers. "There is a risk that the ministers who will meet on Feb. 18 in Brussels will decide on this half-measure," European Jewish Parliament Co-Chair Joel Rubinfeld said, in reaction to a report by Bulgarian security authorities last week that linked Hezbollah to a deadly July 18 terrorist attack on Israelis in Bulgaria. The report found the attack was carried out by agents of Hezbollah's military wing and was funded by the organization in general. Hezbollah has denied any involvement in the attack that killed six people. Currently, in the European Union only the United Kingdom makes a distinction between Hezbollah's military and political wings, and regards the military wing as terrorist but has not outlawed Hezbollah in general. The European Jewish Parliament encouraged other EU states to follow the example of the Netherlands, the only member state where Hezbollah in its entirety is considered a terrorist group. The letters by the European Jewish Parliament contain a quote from 2009 attributed to Hezbollah No. 2 man Naim Qassem: "Hezbollah has a single leadership .... All political, social and jihad work is tied to the decisions of this leadership." |

Installed on a 2009 Yamaha XVS950. Looks perfect and functions flawlessly. Needle is rock solid when running, no bouncing at all. VERY easy to install. Backlighting is bright and makes it easy to read at a glance. If your ride doesn't have a factory tach, I highly reccomend this one.

Really nice Tach
I ordered one of these just after Christmas. When I opened the box I found the tach was off-center and upside down with parts missing from the box! I quickly e-mailed DK and they said to send it back for a full refund or exchange..well I finally got around to sending it back on Jan. 25 and it showed up at Dennis Kirks returns department on the morning of Jan. 30. Imagine my surprise when I got home from work on Friday (Jan. 31) to find a box on my doorstep!! I quickly tore open the box and found a perfectly centered and shiny new replacement. I can hardly wait until the weather turns nice so I can install this and get riding. (We've got 3 feet of snow up here.) The tach is smaller than the pictures would lead you to believe but it's plenty big enough to read and not look like an aftermarket item on the bike. Kudos to DK and all the gang in the returns department for their excellent service and willingness to stand behind the products that thy sell.
I would recommend this item to a friend.Best investment Needed if you do your own work
I wasn't sure if I should have bought cheaper, But I am very happy with the Cobra Tachometer for my Suzuki 2005 C90. Lots of bright shiny chrome .
I would recommend this item to a friend.Very nice
Beautiful chrome well made and back lighted. Helps me know at a glance whether I am in high gear or not.
I would recommend this item to a friend.Nice Tach
Nice looking. easy to install Would have liked the wire bundle cover to extend just a little further. I used heat shrink to cover more of the wires going into the headlight bezel.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
