Radiation Protection Dosimetry Vol. 83, Nos 1–2, pp. 165–169 (1999) Nuclear Technology Publishing EXPOSURE METRICS FOR RF EPIDEMIOLOGY: CELLULAR PHONE HANDSETS Q. Balzano Motorola 8000 W. Sunrise Blvd Plantation, FL, USA INVITED PAPER Abstract — The parameters are described that characterise the exposure of the users of cellular phones. The parameters are distinguished in two classes: the human and the cell phone parameters. Among the human parameters the following are discussed: size and shape of head and neck, manner of holding the phone (left vs. right, finger tips vs. palm contact) and phone position on the face of the user. The cell phone parameters causing the largest exposure variations are: antenna geometry (size, shape, extended or retracted) and matching conditions; operating RF power level; proximity of tissue to RF currents on metal parts, channel access method (analogue, pulsed, CDMA). The large variability of the RF exposure is further expanded by the variety (ever increasing) of phone models available to users who may change service frequently or sporadically. After a brief discussion of possible dose definitions and the uncertainty of the 'user' of a cell phone for a specific call, the paper analyses the critical exposure parameters that should be investigated to characterise statistically the RF exposure of the subjects of an epidemiological study. The improved exposure assessment of the users of cellular phones requires the cooperation of network operators and equipment manufacturers. The statistics of the most critical parameters, those with variability greater that 10:1, can be collected by modifying the software and hardware of the cell phone equipment. The paper suggests base station software modifications and the introduction of cell phone 'dosemeter' devices that record some of the critical exposure parameters. A certain number of these 'dosemeters' should be distributed among subscribers to determine the statistical variations of the RF exposure from cell phones. The paper concludes by recommending a pilot dosimetric study independent from any epidemiological study.

The secrets behind the mysterious nano-sized electromagnetic "hotspots" that appear on metal surfaces under a light are finally being revealed with the help of a BEAST. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a single molecule imaging technology, dubbed the Brownian Emitter Adsorption Super-resolution Technique (BEAST), that has made it possible for the first time to directly measure the electromagnetic field inside a hotspot. The results hold promise for a number of technologies including solar energy and chemical sensing.
"With our BEAST method, we were able to map the electromagnetic field profile within a single hotspot as small as 15 nanometers with an accuracy down to 1.2 nanometers, in just a few minutes," says Xiang Zhang, a principal investigator with Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division and the Ernest S. Kuh Endowed Chaired Professor at the University of California (UC), Berkeley. "We discovered that the field is highly localized and, unlike a typical electromagnetic field, does not propagate through space. The field also has an exponential shape that rises steeply to a peak and then decays very fast."
Zhang, who directs the Center for Scalable and Integrated NanoManufacturing (SINAM), a National Science Foundation Nano-scale Science and Engineering Center at UC Berkeley, is the corresponding author of a paper on this research that appears in the journal Nature under the title "Mapping the Distribution of Electromagnetic Field Inside a 15nm Sized Hotspot by Single Molecule Imaging." Co-authoring the paper with Zhang were Hu Cang, Anna Labno, Changgui Lu, Xiaobo Yin, Ming Liu and Christopher Gladden.
Under optical illumination, rough metallic surfaces will become dotted with microscopic hotspots, where the light is strongly confined in areas measuring tens of nanometers in diameter, and the Raman (inelastic) scattering

Broadband Briefs for 07/31/09
• Arris posts Q2 profit
By The Associated Press
(AP) – Arris Group Inc., a communications equipment company, on Thursday reported higher second-quarter earnings, helped by sales of more profitable products. Net income jumped to $22.9 million, or 18 cents per share, compared with $7.8 million, or 6 cents per share, last year. Adjusted earnings in the most recent quarter totaled 27 cents per share, excluding equity compensation expenses, non-cash interest related to convertible debt and other costs.
Sales slipped to $278.5 million from $281.1 million. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters predicted 22 cents per share and slightly higher revenue of $280.9 million.
Arris said gross margin was 42.1 percent, up sharply from 33 percent a year ago, because of strong sales of cable modem termination systems (CMTS) and MCS products, which include content and operations management systems, operations management systems and fixed-mobile convergence networks.
For the third quarter, adjusted earnings per share are expected to range between 22 cents and 26 cents, the company said. Analysts, who usually exclude items, expect 23 cents per share, on average. Sales are forecast to range between $260 million and $280 million, below analysts' average $289.8 million estimate.

Arizona sheriff aims to put armed posse at schools
Friday - 12/28/2012, 9:50am EST
PHOENIX (AP) - An Arizona sheriff has announced plans to deploy an armed volunteer posse to protect Phoenix-area students in the wake of the mass shooting at a Connecticut elementary school.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio tells KTVK-TV ( http://bit.ly/WMVRwn) he has the authority to mobilize private citizens to fight crime but hasn't talked to specific districts.
He says he doesn't plan to put posse members inside schools but will have them posted around the perimeters.
Arpaio is known as one of the nation's most high-profile supporters of strict U.S.-Mexico border policy.
His plan announced Thursday comes after two other Arizona officials released ideas for boosting school security.
Attorney General Tom Horne proposed firearms training for one person in each school. And Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu proposed training multiple educators per school to carry guns.

Downtown Eaton Inc. will continue to sponsor a number of community events in 2014, as well as the Adopt-a-Pot program.
During the week of May 19, before Memorial Day, 24 beautiful pots of flowers will brighten the downtown area. The pots are sponsored by local businesses, organizations and individuals. Jim Simon of Simon Insurance Agency in Eaton has sponsored a pot for years.
"It really brightens the downtown – It tells people, 'we're here, we're open for business' – It shows that we really care about our downtown. I would certainly invite other businesses to participate," Simon added.
On Saturday, May 10, the Eaton Early Bird Farmers Market will open for its 12th year. This event is open every Saturday through mid-September from 8 a.m.-1 p.m. The market will offer fresh produce (including organic), honey, fresh baked goods such as rolls, cakes, pies, breads, cookies and homemade noodles. Also available will be greenhouse plants, fresh flowers, and more. Marcia Glenn has been a committed vendor at the Farmer's Market for at least nine years. Glenn offers produce, plants and baked goods at the market.
"I look forward to the Market every year – getting to see my customers and friends again – it's like a reunion. It's a great place for people who appreciate good, fresh food. You know where it's coming from," Glenn added.
Any interested Farmer's Market vendors should call Patty Wagner at 937-456-1705.
The 16th Old Fashioned Downtown Saturday Night will be held downtown on Saturday, Aug. 23 and is hosted by Eaton Police, Fire, and EMS Associations along with Downtown Eaton Inc. As in previous years, visitors can still expect to see vintage automobiles, motorcycles, and enjoy music, homemade ice cream, and more refreshments. Participants will be eligible for awards and prizes, including grand prizes. The car show will take place on Saturday from 4 p.m.-8 p.m. For more information, call Rolinda Bowman at 937-533-8542 or Ted Landis at 937-456-1933.
Downtown Eaton's Events finale with the 26th White Christmas Celebration on Friday, November 28 at the Preble County Courthouse Plaza. Heralding the Christmas season, the event features music from Bruce Elementary second graders and the Eaton High School Band. Don't forget the favorite guest – Santa Claus.
Downtown Eaton, Inc. is a non-profit organization for the benefit of the downtown area and the entire community. The group welcomes new members; dues are $20 annually. To request a membership form, call Kathy Willis at 456-7667. Visit www.downtowneaton.com for more information.

Trade Paperback
A finalist for the Scotiabank Giller Prize, the Governor General''s Literary Award, the Rogers Writers'' Trust Fiction Prize, and a #1 national bestseller, Kathleen Winter''s spectacular debut novel is now available in a new edition.
In 1968, into the beautiful, spare environment of remote coastal Labrador, a mysterious child is born: a baby who appears to be neither fully boy nor girl, but both at once. Only three people are privy to the secret - the baby''s parents, Jacinta and Treadway, and a trusted neighbour, Thomasina. Together the adults make a difficult decision: to raise the child as a boy named Wayne. But as Wayne grows into adulthood within the hyper-masculine hunting culture of his father, his shadow-self - a girl he thinks of as "Annabel" - is never entirely extinguished, and indeed is secretly nurtured by the women in his life.
Haunting and sweeping in scope, Annabel is an unforgettable novel about a one person''s struggle to discover the truth in a culture that shuns contradiction.

This review is from: CORSAIR CXM series CX600M 600W ATX12V v2.3 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC CORSAIR CP-9020060-NA Power Supply
Pros: Very quiet. Modular design means you only have cables for the devices you are hooking up - no big bundle of unconnected cables. Has no problem supplying power to two optical drives, on SSD, and several hard drives.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: The power supply on my computer, which I had built, fried and so I was looking for a new one. Newegg had this on sale with a rebate and so I ordered it and have been very pleased with the performance.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: SanDisk Extreme 64GB SDXC UHS-I Flash Card - Class 10 45MB/S
Pros: Fast and reliable. Currently using it with a Panasonic DMC-G3 which writes both RAW and JPG files. The writes are very fast considering the size of the files being written.
Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: Sandisk is THE memory card standard. This card is about half of the Extreme Pro. If you are doing video or photos, get this card.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: AOC e2752Vh Glossy Black Bezel 27" 2ms HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 20,000,000:1 (dynamic) Built-in Speakers
Pros: Last year I took the plunge and got a Planar 27" monitor on sale and loved it. Wanted to get another 27" monitor so I picked up the AOC during a Newegg sale. Its even nicer than the Planar! Absolutely gorgeous and the price (under $200) was a deal.
Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: I passed up quite a few other 27" monitor deals for various reasons, especially the lack of VESA mounting holes. This monitor has the VESA mount and I am using it with a 3M monitor stand - looks great. Its amazing how many well known manufacturers are not putting a VESA mount on a 27" monitor and equipping the monitor with a cheap, fixed height stand.READ FULL REVIEW

NEW YORK, March 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- American Realty Capital Properties, Inc. ("ARCP") (NASDAQ: ARCP) announced today that on March 19, 2013, it sent to the Board of Directors of Cole Credit Property Trust III, Inc. ("CCPT III") an offer to acquire 100% of the outstanding common stock of CCPT III for at least $12 per share, or $5.7 billion, in cash and stock. The transaction, valued at more than $9 billion including assumption of debt, would create the largest and highest quality publicly traded REIT in the net lease sector.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120529/NY15147LOGO )
The fully financed proposal offers CCPT III stockholders:
- Consideration: (i) $12.00 per share in cash or (ii) 0.80 shares of ARCP common stock for each share of CCPT III common stock, with a guarantee that the value of the stock consideration will not be less than $12.00 per share. This offer represents at least a 20% premium to the original CCPT III offer price of $10.00 per share.
- Dividend Increase: An increase of ARCP's dividend to 93 cents per share upon closing, meaning all CCPT III stockholders who elect stock consideration will receive an equivalent dividend of 74.4 cents per share ( 93 cents x 0.80), a 15% increase ( 9.4 cents per share) over CCPT III's current 65 cents per share dividend.
- Integration and Operating Synergies: ARCP currently estimates that general and administrative (G&A) savings will be not less than $30 million annually. The majority of CCPT III's real estate assets are net lease properties similar to ARCP's existing portfolio, resulting in seamless integration and minimal additional resources or ongoing expense requirements.
ARCP's offer is designed to provide CCPT III's stockholders with a tax-free exchange and instant liquidity, as there will be no lockup and all ARCP shares will be immediately tradable on NASDAQ with significant market support and numerous index inclusions at or subsequent to closing. The offer also provides CCPT III shareholders certainty of execution, timing and value. The cash component of ARCP's proposal is fully funded by cash on hand and borrowing capacity under ARCP's existing line of credit.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 5 nights
Relax in a three-bedroom, two-bath house with a large ocean view lanai. Better to watch the whales on their travels north. You may even hear their 'singing' especially at night when all is quiet. Walking the ocean front road and paths with awesome views of the ocean and beautiful homes and tropical foliage will become your favorite exercise. Watch cruise ships pass many evenings. Enjoy the moon shining on the water while relaxing on the lanai after your day of touring our beautiful island.
Our home is furnished island style with rattan, wicker, tropical prints, local art work, and ceiling fans. For your indoor activity enjoy the 40" HD, satelite TV with DVR, DVD & CD, stereo and a lender library for your reading pleasure.
Lie in the queen bed in the master bedroom enjoy the ocean view through the sliding door. The yellow room sports a double bed and the blue room has twins all with mirrored closet doors.
We are centrally located for the adventurous traveler to discover the beauty of the East side of the Big Island. Close to Volcano National Park, Lava Tree State Park, Kapoho Tide Pools, botanical gardens, zoo & oh so much more!
Hilo has old-Hawaii storefronts, a farmers\flea market, and cultural events (such as the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival, Tahiti Fete and Big Island Hawaiian Music Festival). Pahoa with its mix of Cowboy and Victorian character with wooden sidewalks is close by and has some of the best small restaurants in East Hawaii. There is much more to see and explore in East Hawaii .
The Makuu Farmers Market is a must! Every Sunday 7am to 4 pm the market sells fresh island produce, crafts, flea market, fantastic food booth and local musicians share their talent.
Other activities not to miss:
Kapoho Tide Pools offer wonderful snorkeling or sunbathing on the rocks surrounding the pool!
Ahalanui Park county park features thermally heated mineral pond right on the ocean.
Pohoiki is a popular surfing, swimming and hangout for locals. Also has a boat ramp for fishing boats.
Kalapana Lava Site located at the end of Highway 130. You need to hike in to view the flowing lava going into the ocean
Volcanoes National Park the Kilauea Caldera, the home of Pele, the Hawaii goddess of volcanoes and fire and the Thurston Lava Tubes.
Richardson Beach Park is one of the best snorkeling beaches in Hawaii! It's also great for swimming, scuba diving, kayaking and body surfing.
Punaluu Black Sand Beach is a great place to see sea turtles.
Don't forget the Hilo Zoo and Imiloa Astronomy Center.
Keywords: Ocean View, Tropical Living
What we love about our side of the Big Island is the small town flavor. People are friendly, there are no freeways, everyday is an adventure even if you just set on the lanai you may spot whales or dolphins frolicking so close you can see their eyeballs. The air is clean and often has the scent of flowers. You can pick guava, mangos and lilikoi just walking the trails. Nature is all around no hustle no bustle. We love our piece of the island.

Kick Scooters for "Last Mile" Transportation
To between home, campus, and downtown Moscow I usually use my Xootr kick scooter. Human powered, it uses no fuel. It goes about 8 miles 13 Km/hr, about halfway between walking (4 miles 6.5 Km/hr) and cycling (12 miles or 19 Km/hr). It's easy to carry uphill, is very pedestrian friendly on campus or downtown, and is easy to carry up hill. On a recent trip to France we saw many scooters of this design used by riders of the bus and the Métro.
Power-Assisted Bicycle
I purchased the Hilltopper electric bicycle kit from Clean Republic: http://www.electric-bike-kit.com/hill-topper.aspx. I got the 4-1/2 pound lithium ion battery, good for 20 miles at 15 mph. Because there are so many steep hills here in the Palouse, using a regular bicycle is not always practical. The extra boost from the front wheel motor helps me get up those hills without having to break my stride by dismounting and walking, or S-turning up at two miles an hour.
It doesn't have proportional control, just an on-off switch. Push the switch, and it's as if another rider has started pedaling along with you I push the switch to go up a steep hill, to accelerate quickly in traffic, or simply to maintain speed in traffic when the road slopes up. When I'm in a real hurry I pedal in the highest gear with power assist, and go quite a bit faster than I could on my own.
I call it a winner! Now I'm tempted to get a trailer and see if I can use it for grocery shopping.
Quote of the Year
"Il semble que la perfection soit atteinte non quand il n'y a plus rien à ajouter, mais quand il n'y à plus rien à retrancher."
"It seems that perfection is reached, not when there is nothing else to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

Traveler Reviews
By F | Posted 07/25/12
We flew all the way from Hong Kong to Calgary for my mom's 80th b-day only. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was totally dissatisfied and the only comment â the dinner was way over-priced (CAD12xx). VIP Room The given VIP room seems like a reception area or a lounge bar, nearing the entrance. Staffs were even working (i.e. clean up glasses, doing some tableware) while we were having dinner. It was so annoying and disrespectful. Braise Supreme Sharkâs Fin: A bowl of Bean sprouts with countable low graded sharkâs fin on top. It tasted so salty and the Sharkâs fin wasnât supreme at all. Braised Whole Fresh Abalone in Chicken Sauce: The abalones were cheap canned type, The chef probably only needed a microware for making the dish. The source tasted the same as used for the Sharkâs fin. Braised Sea Cucumber with Vegetable: I was impressed by the size of the plate, not anything on it. The vegetable was so salty and difficult to chew. The sea cucumber was ridiculously unacceptable! Again, the same source Couple Jumbo Scallops: It shouldnât be hard to buy good scallops in Canada. The so-called âJumboâ ones were small and tiny ones, with roughly estimated 1.2 inches in diameter. The worst thing was that some were sliced into two. Steamed Fish with Soya Sauce: Each one of us was served a very small portion of such low graded fish. If the chief wasnât sure how to cook fishes like Grouper, Coral Grouper, etc, it might be better to serve the whole low graded fish, at least, to fill up our stomach. Noodle with soup: The crappy noodle tasted like Rubber band! It tasted horrible and sucks! The soup was just plain tasteless like water. The birthday buns It looks like to me that the chief wasnât know how much time it needed to steam up the buns, some were remained cold inside. (This is quite a big surprise for every one of us) We had 7 people and paid CAD 12xx for such disappointing dinner, it costs more than CAD 170 for each one of us. I understand that business means making profits, but most importantly, recurring clients are the major source of future revenue. There is a thin line between ripping off and making profits. The overall qualities of food and the waiterâs bad attitude have forced me to write this message; we were so pissed off. The restaurant should speak to the chief and the waiter, at least, to ask the chief changing the menu or lower the price by at least 30%. (Why would this restaurant do something like that for us, especially on my Momâs 80th birthday?) http://www.regencypalacerestaurant.com/... Read More

Assembling the Tree of Life
Scientists are organizing knowledge of all living things into a single evolutionary tree.
By Emily Sohn, 00:00 AM May 22, 2006
It's easy to see how you're related to your parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, and cousins. It's not so easy to see how you're related to apple trees, worms, or elephants.
From algae to zebras, all living things on Earth have a common ancestor. The Tree of Life Project aims to show how these species are related to one another by putting them into a family tree. Biologists and other scientists all over the world are working to identify and sort Earth's organisms—from plants to microbe...

"Brilliant educational and fun gift.…"
My youngest got these as a gift for her first bday, they are lovely. Really great size for little hands to pick up and durable, colourful and textured.
Both my children have played with these every day for 2 months, even though they have had many other gifts bought for them in this time.
They are a good price and expect they shall last a long time.
Highly recommend.Read moreLess

The Naked Shoe charts the decades-long love story of a shy Jewish girl from Flatbush, her Italian-born Catholic husband, and the gorgeous shoes they created
The Naked Shoe: The Artistry of Mabel Julianelli, a photo book that is also a biography, tells the rags-to-riches story of Mabel Winkel, a shy little Jewish girl from Flatbush, Brooklyn. Born about a century ago, Mabel, a mite of a thing, was blessed with a good eye, an innate talent for design, and plenty of ambition.
She found her way to the Pratt Institute, where she studied costume design and fell in love with Charles Julianelli, a gorgeous-looking but equally poor Italian-born art model who dreamed of becoming an artist. She and Charles worked at a Brooklyn shoe factory where Mabel sketched and Charles cut shoe models. In 1929, the petite powerhouse of a girl, set on starting her own business, invited Charles to become her creative partner. Business was terrific, but romance was more problematic. Mabel was besotted with Charles from day one, but her parents were aghast at the idea of her marrying a Catholic. Charles was popular with the ladies. (He'd had a fiancée, who committed suicide.) They finally married after 10 years, at the Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach on New Year's Eve 1939. But, never mind that. The shoes, oh, the shoes they created! They were gorgeous.
Mabel, the granddaughter of a Russian-born push-cart peddler, did not know much about Judaism. When she asked her parents what it meant to be Jewish, they told her you were born one, and she didn't seek to find out more. What truly mattered to her was her great love for Charles and her burning ambition to achieve success. But her story is still a Jewish one; she's a classic example of a second- or third-generation American Jewish girl whose talent and drive propelled her to prosperity and success.
Mabel and Charles' beautiful couture creations were sold in stores like Saks Fifth Avenue, first under the stores' labels and then under the Julianelli brand name. The Julianellis were inventive and versatile. They developed new styles and techniques, creating a sensation with their Chopine sandal, a combination shoe/sock, the parts of which could also be worn separately. It was the most talked-about shoe of 1941. The Julianellis' artistic achievement was confirmed a year later when Saks donated two pairs of Julianelli shoes to the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Mabel and Charles kept expanding their horizons, designing footwear that ranged from simply walking shoes to elegant ballroom slippers, and they even branched into men's and children's footgear. Worn by such fashion goddesses as Sophia Loren and Diana Vreeland, their designs were also included in the 1945 Museum of Modern Art exhibition, "Is Fashion Modern?"
Mabel died in December 1994, survived by her daughter, Jane, a former Women's Wear Daily editor and the author of The Naked Shoe. But the shoes she and Charles created—beautifully made, delicate, smart, the epitome of good taste—are her legacy. I would love to have them in my closet.
Edna Nahshon, a professor of Hebrew at the Jewish Theological Seminary, is the author of Jews and Shoes.

Stealth introduces Core i3/i5/i7 mini-PC
By Paul Ridden
April 15, 2011
Industrial-grade rugged computer systems manufacturer Stealth Computer has announced its most powerful small form factor PC to date. The Little PC 670 has been designed with Intel's Core i3, i5 and i7 mobile processors, and packs numerous I/O connectivity options into a 6.54 x 6.18 x 1.89-inch (166 x 157 x 48 mm) durable aluminum chassis. HDD storage comes as standard, but SSD solutions are available for applications that require extra-high shock, vibration and temperature protection. There's support for full 1080p high definition playback, and 5.1 Channel audio courtesy of Realtek.
Although the standard LPC-670 model comes with Intel's Core i5 520M processor running at 2.4GHz on a QM57 chipset, there are Core i3, Core i5 580M (2.67Ghz) and Core i7 620M (2.67GHz) versions also available. Up to 8GB DDR3 memory can be installed over two slots, and 2.5-inch hard drive storage options go up to 750GB, with SSD options also on offer. The system comes shipped with a slot-loading DVD-RW/CD-RW combo optical drive, with a Blu-ray burner option also available.
Connectivity takes the form of Gigabit LAN, an optional Wi-Fi 802.11g card and antenna, four USB 2.0 ports, RS232 COM port, DVI-I video connector, audio in and out, and a HDMI port.
The LPC-670 will operate within a temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees C (32 to 122ºF) and 95 percent relative humidity. It can cope with vibration of 0.5Grms, Random, 10~500Hz, X,Y,Z 3Axes, 0.5hr/Axis, and withstand shock of 8G, half sine, 11ms duration. There are chassis brackets available for rack mount installations, and the unit can be powered by an included 20V DC power adapter or can be connected to an external DC source of 12 to 20V DC.
The device is compatible with Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems, with custom configurations possible. The LPC-670 is available now, with the base model starting at US$1,650.
$1,650, i think it would be more economical to just buy a laptop, at least it comes with its own screen.Denis Klanac
1650??? what?? did you mean 650?? even then I don\'t see the value in it..Michael Mantion
The mobile i3/i5/i7 are much more power efficient than desktop i3/i5/i7, and are also much less capable. This is very nice that they made it so small, but they priced it as if it were very chic, when in fact it is an ugly little black box.
At work I did something much more stealthy: I took my big HP computer box and placed it underneath my desk. So now it is completely hidden from anybody having to look at it, plus it serves double-duty as a footrest. Score!Grunchy
Toshiba Lenovo Libretto W100 - truly portable, with two (!!) scrrens runs on batteries (not that long, though...) Currently on sale in Australia for USD 840 Love it!Hans Schaefer
People are simply trying to be more like Apple, take a basic product try to wrap it nicely, slap a chic name on it, and charge 200% it\'s worth. I don\'t understand...Bart Komorowski
Basically an ITX mainboard in a little box....Big Deal, way overpriced!Facebook User
$1650 - Doh! You can built at least 2 powerful desktops for this money. What\'s is that, really?Михаил Финогенов
Buy a Mac Mini instead - cheaper, looks nicer and you can run windows if you really want to!Derek Henderson
Rugged... That is what the name implies which means it should be able to take on most anything. I could see military or outdoors people looking into this...Daniel Lafontaine
1650 Dollars... Joking... a Mac Mini is not even half the price with double the style.. why would anyone buy this product?Jens Schwoon

Nine homeowners associations in Northbrook, Ill., near Chicago, have banded together to stop a proposed Wal-Mart from being constructed in the village. "Crime, clutter, intense light and noise have followed Wal-Marts where they've been built. This is a residential area in a suburb, not a city. We will lose our lifestyle," says Irwin Rosenberg of the Northbrook East Homeowners Association.

The answer really depends more on your play style then anything else...
Are you going to be primary Space Combat character, a Ground Pounder, or a mix of both?
Due you want the quick knock-out punch, or due you prefer to tank and go mano on mano for a long drawn out battle?
The answers will effect your mix of Space Traits vs Ground Traits, as well as which skills you want to enhance through your trait choices...
(My own choices is that I prefer mix but with a emphasis on space, and to tank mano on mano, so my choices may not be applicable to your own wants and needs...)

Gear Review
Great Vest - highly recommend
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought this vest with the Chromium Soft shell. Together they make a great combination in very cold weather. The vest by itself is incredibly warm. It also breaths wel.
