Lol@2020mah batteries.
Stop focusing on thinness and focus on FUNCTION!
|Jan 9, 2013, 09:49 PM
S3 is nice, display is horrid. Note 2 is nice, screen is nice, size is a bit much. I'll wait till the s4 and until then use my i5
|Jan 9, 2013, 10:01 PM
I did the same- bored with iOS, so went android. Got the s3, just couldn't get the hang of it, went back to iPhone. Got the 4s.... I am much happier.
I'll take a little boredom over a lot of frustration any day
|Jan 9, 2013, 10:21 PM
I've gone back and forth between the two OS's for several years. I think I've finally decided to hang with Apple, though. I currently have a Nexus 7, which I enjoy, with a whole page of widgets that I NEVER use. I'll get plenty of use out of it and then get whatever edition of the ipad mini is out at the time. Probably getting a Macbook Air next year too as I have grown weary of PCs.
|Jan 9, 2013, 11:30 PM
Iphone 5 has III beat hands down as far as screen, ecosystem, software.
For some reason some people prefer that 5" screen which isn't going for a quality device.
|Jan 10, 2013, 12:09 AM
|Jan 10, 2013, 01:55 AM
There is allot of function with my GS3. But like I have said in other post, I am compromising the OS for 4.8 inches of sexy 720p display.
Right now using a GS3 instead of an iPhone is a personal experiment to test the waters to figure out what I really want out of a smart phone.
Having an extra fully charged battery in my bag along with a 64gb class 10 mini sd card with the ability to swap and pull out anytime is really hard to ignore after living with it.
What would be nice is if Apple could make a nice little *Mini SD cart slot on the side of the iPhone just as they did with the current 13 inch Macbook Air (Standard SD card size), Give us bigger wider screen.
The iPhone would be considered modernized by that alone.

- Using TrueCaller etc. to let you know who is calling you even though you don't have the number in your contacts and/or block calls from sellers etc.
- Widgets and fast setting toggles.
- Letting you choose default app for different functions (calls, navigation, browsing, music, pictures etc.).
- Use custom keyboard like Swype
- Ability to have different DND settings, e g different settings for weekdays and weekends. On my Ray I had it quiet longer in the mornings on Saturdays and Sundays compared to weekdays.
- T9 Dialer
- Ability to add/remove music, pictures and other files easily and drag/drop them betweeen any computer and phone with USB connection through file explorer.
These are no dealbreakers for me, but I sure miss them.

GS3 on Jelly bean is very smooth. But one thing IOS still has an advantage in is touch responsivness. For example on IOS when you scroll with your finger the response is just about 1 to 1. On android it still lags behind your finger a bit. Not a BIG deal but its a difference.

Let's see an iPhone5 ...
take a screen shot by simply swiping the screen
...open a music player and control it completely with voice, for instance you're listening to a song and it goes off,a song you don't want to hear right now comes on, just simply say "next" from across the room and it changes. Someone walks in and starts talking say "pause" and it does. Volume control, skipping, playing and pausing. Very convenient when washing dishes.
...let you watch a video while you're checking email, sending texts or anything else on your phone besides talking.
...Google now is more responsive than Siri
...dlna. nuff said
...nfc. you can transfer entire movies with this! You can be watching a YouTube video and want to show it to someone, tap the phones and YouTube will pop up, in the exact same spot the video was when you clicked it. Google wallet. Nfc tags.
...can change the battery out and add storage when needed, up to 64gb more
...no need to download any particular software to put music on the phone just drag and drop.
...I can have live wallpaper with the weather, stocks, news headlines, or in my case, Mario running through a level
....install apps I didn't get from the market
Oh and on apps, show me an app on Apple's market that will let you download ebooks, movies, music, for free without a pc attached.

I went from an S3 back to the iPhone as well, after i got the iPad Mini, I decided I wanted a phone that fit in my pocket easier.
It's been a month and I couldn't be happier. particularly with the materials, build quality, and battery life.
One thing that irritated the crap outta me was the features that the S3 touted were difficult to use and time consuming to get set up.
the first thing I did with the last few Android phones was to buy an extra or an extended battery so I could make it through the day, I really like Apple's implementation of LTE and how it conserves battery life compared to the Android phones I've had.

My first "smartphone" was the Droid X. I've been with Verizon for a long time, way before they started selling the iPhone.
My contract for the Droid X was up earlier this year, but wanted to wait for the iPhone 5.
I bought a used HTC Thunderbolt back in April and used that until I got my i5 on October 17th.
Granted, I have never used Jelly Bean as the Thunderbolt (or Droid X) never got that update.
I guess I just wanted a change. I had some friends that had iPhones and I played around with them and just really liked it. Then, I also bought an iPad 2 back in March when the iPad 3 came out and the iPad 2 price dropped to $399. I loved the iPad 2 and that made my switch easy.
Have loved my iPhone 5 since I took it out of the box.
I'm sure the new Android phones are nice. The Samsung's look nice and the reviews are pretty good. The new DNA and Razr phones look nice as well. All the customization doesn't really matter to me. I really like the i5 because everything it does is extremely fast. No lag whatsoever.
I most likely will never go back to Android. Actually just got my wife an i5 this past Saturday.
|Jan 10, 2013, 08:37 AM
I love how all the Android lovers come to an Apple 1st Forum, and tout how great their device is. It makes me laugh that they come here to justify their purchase and talk about features that are irrelevant to most of us. I will start calling the Android Salesmen. lol.
|Jan 10, 2013, 08:54 AM
i've been in this position before. i go back and forth quite often. i root or jailbreak whatever the case may be and then when i'm bored of the device i trade up or trade back for the opposite. both run a great OS, both very different . all depends on what you're needs are or what you're into. as of right now i'm on a gs3, but we'll see how long that lasts before i return. because i must say, the 5 has really caught my attention
|Jan 10, 2013, 09:06 AM
I went from a iphone 4 to the s3, tried it out for a few months, then ditched the s3 for the iphone5. Like others, I was a little bored of ios and wanted to see what android could do. A couple of things I liked about the s3 was the ability to customize the keyboard and to expand storage. The big display on the s3 is also nice. However, I really missed the effortless syncing among all my apple devices. Also, I use facetime on a daily basis, and was unable to find an android app that even comes close - skype is virtually useless on the s3, and I found gtalk to have really poor quality when talking to someone running gtalk on an ipad.
|Jan 10, 2013, 09:49 AM
|Jan 10, 2013, 09:54 AM
What was difficult it time consuming to set up?
I have yet to find one feature like that
|Jan 10, 2013, 10:56 AM
Yeah, features are irrelevant until Apple steals them right?
Tons of Apple people do that on android central too.
Only difference between those Apple fans and android fans are the android people can show you tons of things the phone can do that the iphone can't, but when confronted with facts it always comes down to them saying either "but it's an iPhone" or "those features don't matter"
But then when Apple somewhat catches up and gets those features then they act like it's the cats meow

|Jan 10, 2013, 10:57 AM
The S3 and Note2 have better screens than the iphone5 or any other ips screen. I don't care what anandtech or all the pro's say. They have no idea what they are talking about.
Colors are more vibrant and lively, black is pitch black, everything looks just greater on amoled. The stradivarius is the most sought after instrument in the entire world. Its also super imperfect. Tube amplifiers heavily distorts sounds yet they are highly sought after by audiophiles. How do you explain that?
I really don't care what a bunch of phony bloggers say. I asked all my buddies and everyone is unanimous about screen quality. I don't care if its unrealistic. Everything on my phone looks unrealistic anyway. Just a bunch of icons, text and graphics in a virtual world.

FDA warns pregnant women of migraine drug risk
Wednesday - 5/8/2013, 3:58am EDT
AP Health Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. health regulators are warning doctors and women of child-bearing age that half-a-dozen medications used to treat migraine headaches can decrease children's intelligence if taken while their mothers are pregnant.
The Food and Drug Administration said Monday that the drugs, including Depakote and Depacon, should never be taken by pregnant women for the prevention of migraine headaches.
The pills, which all contain the ingredient valproate sodium, already carry a boxed warning about the risk of birth defects. But the FDA said it is adding new warnings to the drugs after a study showed they decreased IQ scores in children whose mothers took them while pregnant.
"We have even more data now that show the risks to the children outweigh any treatment benefits for this use," said Russell Katz, the FDA's director for neurology drugs.
Earlier this year, researchers at Emory University reported that valproate-containing drugs were connected with an 8 to 11 point reduction in IQ scores for children at age 6. The study compared children whose mothers had taken different classes of neurological drugs while pregnant. The results supported similar findings from when the children were age 3.
Depakote and similar drugs are also used to treat bipolar disorder and seizures. While the FDA said it would not contraindicate the drugs for those uses, the agency said women of child-bearing age should only them as a last resort.
"Women who can become pregnant should not use valproate unless it is essential to managing their medical condition," the agency said in a statement.
Depakote is marketed in the U.S. by AbbVie, which was spun off earlier this year from parent company Abbott Laboratories. AbbVie also markets several other versions of the drug, including Depacon, an injectable formulation. The FDA's warning also affects Stavzor, a pill marketed by Noven Pharmaceuticals for bipolar disorder.
The FDA said it is working with the drug manufacturers to change their products' pregnancy code for migraines to X. The code indicates that the drug's risks outweigh its benefits for the given use.

text: Nomad Strum ~ collab. w/ Chris O (2) by jonnie cook published on 2013/08/24 14:14:08 +0000 What a soulful singer/songwriter she is, Chris O (2). I'm grateful for her faith, inspiration and hard work on this project. And of course, the perfect addition of her own special writing and vocal mix concepts and skills. If you appreciate the genuine sound in blues like I do, please visit her SC page: http://soundcloud.com/chris-okunbor When I wrote this guitar part, I knew it was begging for something special that I would be unable to procure on my own. I left it alone to wait for the right ingredient. Eventually, I opened Chris' SC page and was stunned by the genuine and sincere sound of her blues work. Her work was no regurgitation of the blues, it WAS the blues. It was a direct tapping-into of the source. I listened, I watched, I waited (ok, stalked, lol!). Finally I got the nerve to contact her, expecting little or no response. To my delight, she opened up right off because she is a very nice and approachable person. And because I had the fortitude to dismiss my concerns for potential for ego injury or death through the probable rejection of my collaboration request, I now have this gorgeous track on my page. And as is her way, she has made this track so approachable and accessible, giving it a direction and a sense of identity. Thank you Chris, you are a gem! Here are Chris' Lyrics: "Nomad Strum" Never going home, I ain't ever going home again. Moving on again, out on the Road again, we're out on the Road, back on the Road. Never going home again. Strains of wandered rhymes Calling traveler times Touching life divine Tracking old Songlines Moving on again, out on the Road again, we're back on the Road out on the Road again, never going home. Don't say we can't be here! Don't say we have no right! Don't say we can't be here, touching Life! Southern stars behind our backs, carrying the World inside our sacks, out on the Road! Moving on again, out on the Road again, we're back on the Road, out on the Road. Moving on again. Calling traveler times. Tracking old Songlines. Strains of wandered rhymes. Out on the Road.

"The Plebeian Republic is a well-done and welcome contribution to ongoing debates on the meaning of political independence from Spain and the difficulties the new nation-states faced in creating new political, economic, and social spaces. Cecilia Méndez not only asks new questions but, in answering them, dismantles long-held assumptions about the nonparticipation of manifold social groups in the construction of politics."—Christine Hünefeldt, author of Liberalism in the Bedroom: Quarreling Spouses in Nineteenth-Century Lima
"The Plebeian Republic is an exciting and pathbreaking examination of state formation seen from a local perspective. Cecilia Méndez offers a convincing analysis of how people who are usually seen as 'acted upon' and reacting to political events develop and act on political strategies of their own. I found this a wonderful read."—Karen Spalding, author of Huarochirí: An Andean Society under Inca and Spanish Rule

I've had this my entire life
- I was rather young when I really considered the idea of me. When I realized that eventually my loved ones would leave me, I ran crying to my mom. Over the years it has lessened but lately it has spiked. I lie away every night in panic thinking about how I don't want to die and I want to keep my loved ones forever. I'm really going to try to keep my mom from smoking...IwantohaveheraslongasIcan... I'm constantly having dreams about dying and my loved ones dying... I think if I can make my life a little happier (alone at a college separate from my love and my friends but trying to fix this) I will be better off... Until then...man, I don't know... (sorry for the messy writing...I just wanted to write this...

We need an outlet.
- I have lived with this since i can remember. This cold dark dread. As i read these responses i learn there are others out there with the same thoughts and fears and although it doesnt give me solace it does show me i am not the only sane person on earth. I also read of people who are fearful they will through panic, bring about their own exit, for me this is not what this fear is about. My journey every day is of a man trying to float. Each day i fill my time with 'doing'. Each moment i spend thinking of something is a moment this dark cancer cannot attack itself. I can sometimes go days, even weeks without a bad attack but once it has reared its head it is hard to shake. We will die... this doesnt bother me. Everone will die... this doesnt bother me either. Cold as i am now to the existence of man i care only of my own. Can someone build a forum? somewhere we can talk? therapy is scary.. an outlet would be helpful
- —Guest Tinyark
- I was very surprised to learn that I am not the only one who has these feelings. I thought I was weird for thinking these thoughts and have kept them to myself for a few years now. I don't enjoy the thought that one day I will not have control over my body and that my body will cease to exist. I have been very religious throughout my life, but since I have attended college I have worked with cadavers for a semester. Since then, I cannot think of life the same way. I think of my friends and family and how they will one day not exist as well. I question if animals are like human death and I am scared to kill insects. I try not to think about the meat I eat and how it came from an animal. This may sound silly and strange, but it is one of the other things I think about. And I cried the entire time I read the other stories. I try to distract myself with other thoughts, like homework.

It finally dawned on me.
- I've been diagnosed moderately depressed with mild anxiety and some OCD tendencies. One of the big problems in my life has been that I'm scared of everything, so when I was reading a cognitive behavioral therapy book, it finally dawned on me that I'm scared of everything because I constantly think I'm going to die. I'm afraid of airplanes, roller coasters, driving too fast. I won't go on boats and I'm scared of the ocean and lakes because I think I might drown. When I'm going to bed, if I don't specifically remember if I've locked the doors, I get up to check them because I'm afraid someone will come in and kill me. I'm depressive but never been suicidal because of the fear. I'm only 28 but already having slight panic attacks about 30 because life has moved so fast that it will be no time before I die.... So I looked up fear of death and found this, and it upsets me even more that I'm reading a description of most of the things I feel. It's all really weird to read yourself on a page.

Fear of Death/No Afterlife
- I have been thinking about death just recently. I am at home alone, I'm 18 and I took a gap year, and will be attending college this year, already accepted (yay!!!) The thing is, I'm just the type of guy that questions all the religions and such (is there a god? does heaven/hell exist?) It always happens the worst at night. I start to have mini-panic attacks. My heart level gets elevated, I start to move, I start to cry mentally, its soo bad. All this time alone, my thoughts are my own mental enemy, one that I cannot defeat. One the topic of my death gets rolling, all the other thoughts just RUSH in, I can't control them. I fear that I will have no ability to talk, speak, act, BREATHE, to THINK. Loss of Consciousness is what I fear the most. Will I just "cease" to exist as a human being? I just wish that someone would help me. Its good to know that Im not the only one that has this very irrational fear.
- —Guest Alexander Ponce
Is it really thanatophobia?
- I have the same obsession with death as all the other responses I've read. I especially get scared at night while I'm lying in bed or in the car or a plane (I'm always afraid the car will veer off the road, or a semitruck will topple over, or a bridge will collapse, or a plane will crash) I'm afraid at night because this is the only time where I'm actually able to reflect on it and think of it; however, it's always lurking somewhere in the back of my mind, no matter how big the distraction.) the only thing I'm sceptical about is whether it's just a really big fear or an actual phobia. I've never experienced a panic attack or anything of the sort, but sometimes my heart beats fast or my breathing speeds up. I also find myself crying almost hysterically when I'm thinking about it by myself. I'm just not sure if this is actually thanatophobia or not.
- —Guest blahhhh
No escape
- I feel very trapped. I think a lot about what/who I am, and I usually come to the conclusion that I am a series of electrical signals in my brain. I'm distraught that I cannot replace the organic material of my body with metal, or discover the secret of the immortal jellyfish. I can't comprehend not existing because it is impossible to experience. I fear being alone, and I fear the ending of my life. I fear that I am not spending my extremely limited time wisely. I also fear the possibility of various "afterlives" even though I am an atheist. I fear that maybe after death I will be trapped in a perpetual regretful retrospection. I think a lot of my fears are based on loss of control. I hate that no matter how much effort one puts forth, or how good of a person you are there is no escape. The only thought that comforts me is that maybe since my time is limited, what I do with it means more than if I had forever to do whatever. So in the meantime I am going to rave my balls off. -blueboy
- —Guest chicago blue
- Death is not the end(at least every religion says that and there are some very good scientific proofs) so you don't have to be so scared. I recommend you to read "The Tibetan book of living and dying" by Sogial Rinpoche - it can really help. Don't be so narrow-minded.

Constant Fear
- I had a young relative pass away a little over a year ago due to a car crash. He was in his early 20's. Every since then I've had bad anxiety and panic attacks. Not only of the fear of myself dying, but others that I'm close with as well. Whenever my phone rings, my heart starts pounding with fear that something happened to one of my loved ones. At night, my mind is constantly filled with worry and the fear of dying. I have turned into a complete worry wart. Calling and texting family while they are away or out to make sure they are ok and nothing happened to them. It's been extremely hard to deal with and not sure what to do next.
- —Guest Lee
I Understand
- Ive struggled with this constantly since I was 13 - it first popped into my head in the middle of a family dinner at a pub (perfect timing!) It's become part of my life and I know I will always have to deal with it. To Help : NOthing here is long term and it won't stop the thoughts but it will help you relax. 1) Take deep Breaths 2) Think of it as a natural cycle 3) Every single living thing on this planet will experience it one day (people, animals, plants,etc) 4) Remember LIfe is for the Living so enjoy it 5) Think of it as winning the lottery. Everyone will eventually get their chance. I know its easy to say and hard to actually do, but try your hardest. I also find going outside calms me down aswell. Im Terrified, and I just hope that when it happens, it will be so quick I won't realise whats happening. I really hope all those NDE's are true and I hope I will see my family immediately. Good LUck everyone!

Stories are so familiar
- I'd like to thank everyone who posted on this board. I can relate to so many of these stories. My fear of death also started as a child and it comes and goes. I've found it's worse if I am overtired. I try not to stay up too late until the point were I pass sleepy and am too tired to control my thoughts. If I get to that point, I usually try to distract myself from thoughts of not existing by watching a movie I've seem many times or reading a book. This doesn't always work, but it does sometimes, so is worth a try. I also use deep breathing to control panic. I try to remind myself of the line from the song "The Rose" It's the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live, and try to think of things I want to do now, while I can. I also have developed a physical movement-- when I think of dying, my head turns quickly to the left as a way of "shaking it off." I fear this will become a tic.

cant grasp
- im 19 and had a very great life i had the best firend in the world sorry to say she passed away novemver 2009 standing there at her casket relizing omg shes only 17 i started to panic thats when these thoughts have entered my mind i can t grasp that we live and that death is so sudden and then ur gone no more anything it terrifies me even though i am young i still know that we can dsie any minute to the point where i lay and cry at night somtimes i dont sleep i confront my husband alot he always tells me baby we all die someday just dont think of it and hugs me the bad thing is i dont think of it all the time like the other night watching family guy quagmire faked death that triggerd me thinking oh god i wont be able to move imadha and very closterohobic so the thought of lying in a casket for all eternity disturbs me and the loss of control and what terrifies me the most the same man i have been with since the age of fourteen never being able to see touch kiss hold him agian

Finally...A Name...
- I have been dealing with this since I was around 13. I'm 25 now, I work as a registered nurse, and my fear/phobia has grown astronomically in the past couple of years. Like I read in the other posts, I used to fly everywhere! Now a days, I cannot get on a plane without calling everyone close to me and once I get on the plane, I sweat and shake. I have been blessed with the most amazing family. That is where my fear starts to develop. I have panic attacks at night thinking of the non-existence part of death. It will most often manifest in me as "chest-pains" and severe anxiety. I too am afraid of how my family would handle my death. My mom and I are very close and it creates anxiety for me when I think about not seeing or talking to her again. Tips for coping: Distraction (sounds hard, but REALLY try) Focus on something you enjoy and play out a scenario in your head. If you have an animal, pet them. Get up and walk around. Fold laundry or put clothes away. Hope this can help
- —Guest Allison
fear of not being
- ive been struggling with this 4 years now. im even on 40mg of prozac which does help/distract me. any suggestions OR emails greatly appreciated. i do think there is a god/creator but i wish my resolve & faith was stronger. ugh i hate this :(
- —Guest Albee
Not alone ~.O
- Thanks everyone for your stories! Like several of you have mentioned, ' you're ' not the only one who has this fear. Something that soothes me is the idea that I have no memory of what was 100 years ago, but it doesn't bother me. Also, in my mind, it's only fair that we give back to the cycle of life. It's a wonderful feeling to know that you have, and got the chance to be a part of something so amazing! Everyday something ceases to exist in its current form so that we may eat, and exist. Deep down in my heart I know that we CAN'T be the smartest enhabitants all around. We all just gotta do the best we can, and have faith that there HAS to be something after. [Much Love]

Pointers star Heyward busts out of defensive lineman mold
Christian Heyward is not your garden-variety, beefy high school lineman.
For a 275-pound tackle, the Point Loma High senior is exceptionally quick, agile and mobile. Once the football is snapped, he seems to explode across the line of scrimmage.
Athletically gifted, the 6-foot-3 senior also plays varsity basketball, offering an inside scoring touch and ample vertical leap to crash the boards and even dunk on occasion.
It's an attention-grabbing combination that's prompted strong interest from college football recruiters. The list of suitors courting Heyward includes every Pac-10 school except Stanford, plus such notables as Miami, Arkansas, Oklahoma State and Nebraska.
"Because of his athleticism and quickness, there's a lot of upside with Christian," said Pointers coach Mike Hastings. "Right now, he's enjoying the high school experience. So, he's just starting to tap into his ability, learning how to use his talent and his body. In college, where he will be more full-time into what he's doing, he's only going to get bigger, faster and stronger."
There's certainly an athletic legacy in the Heyward lineage. Christian's dad, Walter, played basketball at Point Loma Nazarene University, and his cousin, Jason Heyward, is the Atlanta Braves standout rookie right fielder. His uncle, Kenny Washington, played basketball at UCLA, scoring 26 points in the Bruins' 98-83 win over Duke in the 1964 NCAA title game. Another cousin, Simone Heyward, is a pitcher on the LSU women's softball team.
An All-Western League first-team selection on defense last season when the Pointers rode a six-game winning streak into the San Diego Section Division III final (a 20-14 loss to Cathedral Catholic), Heyward is scheduled for additional duty as a tight end this season.
"I'm comfortable there and want to contribute on offense, too," said Heyward, who's ranked as the nation's 18th best prep defensive tackle by one Internet recruiting service. "My personal goals are to stay healthy and have a good final season. We did what we could to win last year, but it was a game where the team that had the ball last would win. The team goal is to get back in the final and win."
Heyward didn't play tackle football until ninth grade, but blossomed as a sophomore starter for the Pointers, leading the team with nine sacks and ranking second with 59 tackles. Last fall, his 50 tackles, nine sacks and six pass deflections were team highs, to go with two recovered fumbles and six pass deflections.
"I realized my sophomore year I could be something special in football," said Heyward, who carries a 3.0 grade-point average. "I was playing well against guys who were two years older and I decided something like college football or even the NFL could be a reality."
Noting he's planned recruiting visits to Arizona, Oregon and Miami, Heyward outlined these factors in his ultimate decision: "A good football and academic environment, a good fit with the coaching staff and the education I will get."
For now, what looms is that last-hurrah campaign as a Pointer, beginning Sept. 4 at home against Orange Glen.

Why utilities will soon be obsolete in HI and CA (and then in your state)
Quick Take: I often consult to investment firms looking for insights into the smart grid space. I recently spent time with a hedge fund trying to decide whether and when to put money into the solar industry. I told them that solar + storage would soon enable certain customers in certain areas to divorce their utilities and become self-sufficient.
A day later, a report appeared that adds some precision to that prediction. Called "The Economics of Grid Defection," it predicts when solar + storage will reach grid parity in five different parts of the U.S.
As is so often the case, this new development is a result of several converging trends:
· Plummeting solar costs
· Declining battery costs
· Increasingly efficient buildings that require less power in the first place
I agree with most of the report, but I think two factors could defer this "death spiral." First, I think regulators will wake up and end net metering subsidies. They don't want a world where C+I customers and wealthy residential customers self-power themselves and the grid is financed exclusively by apartment dwellers and low-income families. That would delay the day that solar reaches grid parity by a few years.
Second, I think regulators may allow utilities to start competing to finance, install and manage solar rooftops. In that case, the advent of solar will not cause a death spiral, but an upward spiral of increased utility revenues. Indeed, the report authors seem to recommend this option as well.
Every utility needs to review this report. Even if you don't operate in one of those five regions, you can easily extrapolate to your own situation. My quick summary is below, but jump to the Rocky Mountain Institute site for their overview or to download the full report. - By Jesse Berst

A Very Interesting Place
October 26, 2009
NEAR Shoemaker's pictures of Eros show many places that defy long-held stereotypes of asteroids as crater-battered balls of rock. The southern part of Eros' saddle, shown here in a picture taken June 14, 2000, has several characteristics suggesting the importance of processes other than cratering. The dense population of large craters observed on other parts of the asteroid has been obliterated or covered over. The elliptical depression at the upper right probably formed by regolith movement due to mechanisms other than impacts, and the brighter patches scattered throughout the scene suggest exposure of subsurface materials. The image was taken from an orbital altitude of 51 kilometers (32 miles) and shows a region approximately 1.9 kilometers (1.2 miles) across.

Recent Lubec Reviews
Right in the thick of things!
We love the idea of having a beautiful, modern, and comfortable apartment in a historic building which is in the historic district of this lovely city. Having several restaurants, a coffee shop, a bakery, and a sweets shop within easy walking distance is delightful. The bright and airy apartment has views of the harbor, Campobello, and downtown Eastport. The apartment was the perfect size for us. We had a delightful visit and look forward to returning.
This place is awesome!
I visited Lubec for the Bay of Fundy Marathon. My girlfriend and I stayed at the Captains Studio for 3 nights and it was perfect. Everything we needed was in walking distance. The location is great. The place was much bigger than I thought it would be. We brought food and cooked dinner one night and we walked to eat fried clams the next night. Karen was awesome too and she made everything easy for us.
50th Wedding Ann.

The kitchen has everything you need and the sunrise is wonderful( very early)Bald Eagles and a very interesting tide.Jodie was very helpful with all the information there with things to do and places to go.If it is relaxation you are looking this is the place.Quiet and comfortable. We are planning our next trip..Thanks again Jodie for a great job..

This is no sweet music for Indian cricket board. Taking a cue from one of his predecessors, sports minister Sarbananda Sonowal on Wednesday expressed BJP government's keenness to bring Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) under the purview of Right to Information (RTI).
In his written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha, Sonowal said: "The government has also formulated a draft of the National Sports Development Bill to bring all the National Sports Federations and the BCCI under the RTI Act with the provision of exclusion clause of protecting personal/confidential information relating to athletes."
Clearly, Sonowal's statement is going to ruffle quite a few feathers within the ruling party. Two years ago, when UPA government was in place, the then sports minister Maken tried to bring in similar legislation to ensure transparency in the working of BCCI. But he faced stiff resistance from powerful voices within the Union cabinet and was forced to take it back and work on it again.
Maken's efforts eventually failed to yield any results as he was forced out of the sports ministry later and the rich and powerful cricket lobby emerged winner.
The BCCI has always maintained in its defence that since it doesn't take any government fund like other NSF's, it cannot be brought under the RTI.
With Sonowal's latest reply, it looks like sports ministry and BCCI are again heading for a showdown over this issue in the proposed National Sports Development Bill.
Sonowal has also replied that government is aware of the spot-fixing allegations during the Indian Premier League (IPL) matches and that it is under investigation.
"Several controversies about BCCI regarding allotment of franchises, match-fixing, betting etc., reported in sections of print and electronic media, have come to the notice of the government. Various agencies of the government namely the Enforcement Directorate, Income Tax and Service Tax Department have conducted inquiries into the allegations of the irregularities involving the BCCI in the country," stated the reply.
"In order to curb match-fixing and other unfair practices in sports, Ministry of Law and Justice has prepared draft legislation and has sought the views of the Ministry of Youth and Sports Affairs," he added.
To clarify government's intentions, Sonowalsaid that that there is no intention of taking over the BCCI as it's an autonomous body.
"BCCI is an autonomous body registered under the Societies Act. It is not feasible for the government to take over and run the day to day activities of BCCI," he said.

OXFORD – It looked like Mississippi State was going to get out of the fourth and eighth innings unscathed on Thursday night.
The Bulldogs had two outs in both frames, but Ole Miss found a way to score all four of its runs with two outs and ended up beating MSU 4-3 at Swayze Field.
The Starkville High School girls track team has been solid in distance events over the last several years.
When it comes to the 800, 1600 and 3200 meter runs in Saturday's Class 6A State championship meet in Pearl, the Mattox sisters have had it covered.
EUPORA – Rusty Johnson did his best to keep the Eupora Eagles within striking distance of Thursday's baseball game against Hatley.
Johnson went the distance on the mound for the Eagles and drove in two runs with three hits offensively.
At the end of the day, Eupora didn't have enough in the tank to outlast the tough-hitting Tigers and lost a 7-5 decision to end its season.
There are many words that come to mind when you talk about Mississippi State and Ole Miss meeting in an athletic event.
For Bulldog senior left hander Ross Mitchell, the one word that comes to mind is competitiveness.
Starkville High School Principal David Baggett announced on Wednesday that he has chosen Brooks Oakley to lead the football team as the interim coach head coach.
Baggett said that Oakley would run the program for the remainder of spring practice.
Those hot summer days of running sprints up and down the steps at Yellowjacket Stadium have paid off for Patton Little.
Little will be representing Starkville High School at the Class 6A State track meet on Saturday in the 1600-meter and 800-meter runs.
He found out during the course of the year that the distance events were more to his liking.
Daryl Greenan always believed he was going to get Mississippi State back to the NCAA Tournament.
The Bulldog head coach took over the program in 2009 and thought the NCAA Tournament was right around the corner.
He found that just wasn't the case.
After six years of leading MSU, the first NCAA Tournament appearance will happen for Greenan and his Bulldogs this Friday.
Mississippi State was hoping to be playing in Starkville this weekend.
The Bulldogs were on the cusp of hosting their third regional in the last four years, but found themselves on the outside looking in.
Starkville Academy baseball coach Jody Britt hopes his players have a short memory.
He wants his Volunteers to put game one of the Class AAA playoff series against Oak Forest Academy of Louisiana out of their minds as soon as possible.
In the first game, Starkville Academy made seven errors and lost an 11-4 decision to the visiting Yellow Jackets.
MABEN – Jack Wilson didn't know what was at stake when he stepped to the plate with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning.
He knew after he slid into second.
The East Webster second baseman delivered a three-run double which proved to be enough for a 13-3 walk-off win in six innings over East Union.

How three Texas precasters are meeting the challenges of a booming infrastructure market.
Today, precast pavement is considered a mature technology, providing highway agencies with an effective rapid construction option.
Where else can you find more than 50,000 fellow concrete construction professionals and more than 1200 exhibiting companies than World of Concrete.
There is a widely held and incorrect belief in the concrete industry that a producer's quality control (QC) department takes away from and does not add to the bottom line.
Traditionally, pervious concrete has been promoted to be a mix with 15 percent to 25 percent void structure. Our industry has accepted these values due to the balance of hydrological and engineering properties.
Bakersfield lacks the notoriety, glamour, and fame of other California cities, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego. Yet many outside the Golden State probably don't realize that a huge population gain from 70,000 to 350,000 in just 40 years has catapulted Bakersfield almost into the...
Researcher seeks new avenue for precast concrete disposal.
Ready-mix production could top 300 million yards in 2012.
In the world of green there are two ways to evaluate the release of carbon compounds into the atmosphere: "embodied carbon," which defines carbon releases along the complete material supply-chain, and "emissions," which quantifies the amount of carbon released during the lifetime of a structure.

Painting of Jajang (artist unknown).
|Korean name
|자장 율사
|Revised Romanization
|Jajang Yulsa
|Chajang Yulsa
|Birth name
|Revised Romanization
|Kim Seonjong
|Kim Sŏnchong
Jajang (590–658) was a monk born Kim Seonjong, into the royal Kim family, in the kingdom of Silla. He is credited with founding the temple of Tongdosa in 646 CE, near in what is now Busan, South Korea, and played a significant role in the adoption of Buddhism as the national religion of Silla.
In 636 Jajang traveled to China to study under the great Buddhist masters of the Tang Dynasty China,[1] for seven years[2] becoming a taeguksa (Great Noble Priest) upon returning, receiving the highest honors from Queen Seondeok.
When Jajang returned from China he was given invaluable holy treasures: a fragment of the original Sakyamuni Buddha's skull, a wooden begging-bowl and monastic-robe of Buddha, and 100 of the Buddha's "sarira" (pearl or crystal-like bead-shaped objects that are purportedly found among the cremated ashes of Buddhist spiritual masters).
Because of his sharp mind he was repeatedly requested by the King to take a position of responsibility at court. Jajang repeatedly refused these requests so finally the King issued an ultimatum: "If you do not accept this official position I offer, I will have your head severed for disobedience." Jajang replied "I would rather die keeping the commandments of Buddha for one day than live for a hundred years while breaking them." The King seeing the wisdom in Jajang's reply relented allowing Jajang to remain a monk.[3]
Jajang established many temples but Tongdosa, one of the Three Jewel Temples of Korea, is considered the most important.
Temples of note:
- Magoksa in 640 or 642
- Bongjeongam (Phoenix Bower Hermitage) in 642[4]
- Sangwonsa in 643[5]
- Oseam in 643
- Woljeongsa in 643
- Tongdosa in 646.

The no-bike zone: do we have to teach kids to ride bikes?
(Boston: Not an E.T.-in-the-bike-basket kind of town?)
How emotionally damaged will my kids be if I never teach them to ride a bike?
Yes, yes, I know it's that time of year. Cue the springy Saturday morning with the proud mom and dad giving the madly grinning kid a shove and a wave as he pedals away for the first time.
If suburban life was a movie, this would be the opening scene.
Except at my house, a no-bike zone that borders a busy road.
It's not for a shortage of bikes. The well-meaning grandparents have picked up several second hand. There is a constant stream of biking families out the window pulling kids in trailers with the cheerful little safety flags.
Those happy scenes give me the chills. I know too many veterans of bike accidents who had head injuries and required cosmetic surgery. I knew a teenager who was killed on his bike. I have covered too many stories of young adults getting mowed over by trucks while biking to work.
For the nostalgic types out there, I have to point out that cars are way bigger than when we were kids. Every day here in the suburbs, I see some jerk on a cell phone piloting a monstrous SUV nearly hit a pedestrian out of carelessness.
Greater Boston is just not a-kid-with-E.T.-in-his-bike-basket kind of place.
I don't need a therapist to tell me that this is probably more about being afraid of the unknown than an actual dislike for cycling. And I don't need Lenore Skenazy and the Free Range Kids Movement to tell me I shouldn't "protect" my kids by denying them simple, free and healthy pleasures.
But can't we just skip the bicycle? I'll teach them to ski, ice skate, swim, rockclimb, even scuba dive. Isn't that enough?
Do you think teaching kids to ride bikes is a must-do for parents? Is it really such a fundamental life skill? Have you had any regrets about letting -- or not letting -- your kids learn to ride a bike? Leave us a comment or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Incandescent Bulbs Get a Reprieve 767
from the every-comment-must-contain-the-words-'free-market' dept.
Ethanol? What unintended consequences? It did exactly what it was supposed to do:
Drive up corn prices artificially.
Seems unlikely, unless it's your oven light...
Although CFLs technically will work in an Easy Bake Oven, they really need incandescents.
Oil from juvenile seals, expressed by antemortem percussion, works just as well as whale oil.
GE 26 Watt Energy Smart CFL - 100 Watt Replacement, about $250 each -- rated at 8,000 hours
As it turns out, your $250 "GE 26 Watt Energy Smart CFL - 100 Watt Replacement" bulb is now on sale for $13.40 each:
http://www.amazon.com/Watt-Energy-Smart-CFL-Replacement/dp/B000UYF80S [amazon.com]
If we extrapolate [xkcd.com], by tomorrow the price should be about 4 cents each.
Geeze, one typo and nobody will ever let you forget it. $2.50, not $250 obviously. Or at $13.40 for six, a little under that, if you want to get pedantic.
Once it hits the fan, the only rational choice is to sweep it up, package it, and sell it as fertilizer.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|5 - 6 nights
What we intend to become our retirement home in a few years, our 1300 sq. ft. home is on the Anclote River between the Greek Sponge docks and the Gulf.
Grill fresh fish and set up dinner on the dock, then boat out to the keys. Play golf nearby, hike or bike the Pinellas Trail that slips through the center of old Tarpon Springs.
With 2 bedroom, 4 beds, we are set up for a very comfortable relaxed vacation for 4, with a pull-out queen in the living room for the occasional visitor.
We have replaced all the appliances except the electric stove-top that refuses to get old. If water doesn't go through it, it lasts forever down there! Our HVAC is sterilized at the intake with a UV filter to keep the environment healthy even for sensitive souls, like us.
We have two bicycles for your use, and a great Necky tandem kayak as well as a solo that give you intimate access to the river and bayous.
Scott is an airline pilot, Betsy an artist, who are happiest near the water. Life-long sailors who summered on sailboats in Maine, and a lake cottage in Southern Ontario, our home was inland in the Finger Lakes region of Western NY. We have recently moved to the Boston area, nearer to two grown children (and our grandchildren). Our 3 year old grandson loves fishing or lying on the dock to observe the dolphins hunt together, watch the crabs and lizards in the mangroves, or the eagle battle it out with the ospreys in aerial stunt flying.
Scott and Betsy Taylor purchased this house in 2009
After visiting the Tarpon Bayous and Anclote River and Key for years, friends found this sweet location and talked us into buying it to upgrade and share with them. Purchased from the family of the original home on 'Pioneer Point', we are in love with the setting and are continuing to improve the home. Because we use it as a second home it is outfitted as we need a home to be! The newest project is a dock rebuild with a ramp to a floating dock for kayak access. Shallow draft boats can tie up to the pilings.
Lovely, twisted live oaks frame the water view from the house, and the dock is a favorite spot to gather for watching birds, dolphins, the local fishing fleet and the sunset. Well around the bend in the road, it becomes a quiet, private neighborhood, safe from through-traffic, yet a fun bike ride or boat ride to the beaches. Kayak south to the Greek Sponge Docks for great food and entertainment, to the bayous, or north to Miss Vickie's to eat lunch on the water. Boat out the river to Anclote Key and Shark Island for serious beach and swim time.
When indoors, newly installed central Air super UV filtration system keeps the home allergen-free.
939 Bayshore is a lovely, comfortable home on an idyllic setting. The view of the boat and pelican traffic on the water offers hours of entertainment. Osprey, heron, ibis, and egret ply the waters while dolphin swim past. Truly gorgeous. The house is comfortable, the hosts accommodating. An excellent choice for a laid back holiday.
Nice House in a quiet location. We enjoyed staying here. We enjoyed the kayaks and hammock. Screened porch was excellent also. Owners very helpful. Only 2 things negative about the house was the master bath was Very small and we came and went a lot to visit family and do things, so driving around the bay to get there repeatedly was tiring. Beach parks very nearby, that was great! We would stay here again.
This is a great place for relaxing, enjoying a river view with close access to beaches by water or bicycle. It was really great to have the Kayak and the dock for easy access to the water. The home is very comfortable and has everything needed. The neighborhood is very quiet good for walking or bicycling, a quick ride to Howard Park for a sunset. We enjoyed watching birds from the dock, a bald eagle lives very close.
I recommend this for a couple or family get away, but you'll want to stay longer!
Tarpon Springs is a lovely town and very easy to get to from Tampa, we enjoy the ride across to Clearwater and coming up Alternate 19, slow but more scenic.
Will definetly visit again when in the area.
I came with two ladies in their 80's who needed to relax almost as much as I. It was everything I hoped for and more. We were very close to the Tarpon Springs greek village but not caught up in the hipe of sightseeing. Daily we had the "regulars" join us, a blue heron, an egret and the many ibus that would stroll the walk along the bulkhead. Inthe evening we watched the many boats come in, including a troller that was lit over every inch. Nothing has been more relaxing.
The owners were easily available to answer questions or solve any problem. I hopeto return someday.
Deciding that it was preferable to rent a private property rather than an impersonal hotel for the 5 days that we were in Tarpon Springs, I am more than satisfied with this rental. The owners were willing to work with me on a price for the short time that we were staying there and its location was within 10 minutes of all of the family that we were visiting. In fact, those family members who knew the area well, were impressed with the size, condition, cleanliness and coziness of the house. Traveling with an older parent and younger niece, we felt at home and could relax more before setting out on daily adventures to the aquarium, beach, docks, etc. The location on the bay was fantastic and a manatee may have even been spotted! I could recommend renting this home to anyone visiting this area and may even consider using it again in the future.
A much needed refuge from the storms of the world. We could not have imagined a more relaxing stay. The small house is right on the Anclote River and includes all the amenities to take advantage of one's stay. We loved sitting out on the dock in the morning to catch sight of Osprey, Kingfishers and Herons. In the evenings we enjoyed grilling seafood and dining on the lanai while watching the sun set. Scott and Betsy have a jewel of a home. If we fail to close on our own place, we hope to return. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
Located on the quiet side of the Anclote River, between Tarpon Springs and the Gulf. Boating from our quiet street on the river to the Gulf, beaches on the Gulf.

Product Data
About the Alpinestars brand
Alpinestars is a technical safety gear manufacturer for motorcycle and auto racing (MotoGP, Motocross, Formula One and NASCAR), as well as extreme sports. The company takes its name from the English translation of the Italian word "stelle alpine" which, when translated into English, literally means "Alpine stars".
They have also developed a fashion clothing division for men's and women's sportswear lifestyle apparel, based upon Alpinestars' heritage in motorsports.
Founded in 1963 by Sante Mazzarolo in Asolo, Italy, the company started out making hiking and ski boots, but quickly focused on making boots primarily for motocross racing. In the 1990s, the company branched out into manufacturing all types of protective and technical gear ranging from gloves and jackets to full leather suits for motorcycling. They also sold Alpinestars branded mountain bikes until 1996. Today they have offices in Los Angeles and Tokyo while the original headquarters and main research & development labs remain in Northern Italy.
The company is today headed by Sante's son, Gabriele Mazzarolo.
