Unfortunately for those looking to purchase a new iMac, shipping has now been pushed back to January.

rush and buy it... then, please let us know about all of the problems that you would have encountered... as the poor chinese "slaves" might have been working under heavy Santa Claus pressure, who cares about quality controls and human rights as long as the gifts are under the x-mas tree!

This is not possible! Iclarified reported that it wouldnt ship till jan. im calling shenanigans!
Crunch - December 10, 2012 at 11:54pm
No shenanigans. iClarified noted that all NEW 27" iMac pre-orders from the date that they reported the January ship date would ship next month. All initial pre-orders (since 11/30 up to aforementioned date) had a 3-4 weeks window for shipping, which, as it turns out, effectively changed to 1-2 weeks for some of those lucky bastards, as this new report shows. What a nicely configured one they're shipping to this customer. ;-) P.S.: Is there ANY indication as to when we might see an updated 27" Thunderbolt/Cinema display from Apple?

Letter: No merit badge
Sam Dawson, Bartlett
President Barack Obama's statement that he thinks gays should be able to join the Boy Scouts of America is the stupidest thing he has ever uttered (Feb. 4 article).
To let boys at their young, impressionable age closely interact with those who have homosexual tendencies will be a stress on their abilities to know what is morally right. It would be different if the boys were older and had the maturity to know what homosexuality really means. But, at their young age, most of the boys of this country have very little idea of what this lifestyle is all about.
To suggest that the youth of America should be subjected to any unnatural sexual behavior is totally irresponsible and against the moral values of the majority of the citizens of this country.

This past weekend was so much fun! Friday we had a night in and watched a ton of movies, including my all time favorite movie, The Town. Saturday was a study day, which was definitely needed, and then at night I ended up having to help my friend go grocery shopping. Definitely a few lessons learned there. For example, when a guy says that he only needs to buy gatorade and chicken, don't be surprised when they get distracted and end up coming out with $150 worth of groceries. I was surprised to say the least. After that we went out to dinner at Hana on the Hill, which was delicious as always.
But Sunday was the best day, without a doubt. In the morning, my sorority Delta Delta Delta held our philanthropy, Tee-Off with Tri Delta, down at the Fossil Ridge Golf Course in Golden. It was so much fun! We ended up raising over $10,000 dollars for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which makes me so proud. St. Jude is our national philanthropy, and over the years it has become one of my favorite causes. Nationally, Delta Delta Delta has made a pledge to raise $15 million in 5 years, and we are so close! Previously, we had a goal to make $10 million in 10 years, and we managed to raise the amount in only four years! That may seem like a lot of money, but it takes about $1 million dollars to run St. Jude every day, and it's all funded by personal donations. Even though I can't personally donate $1 million dollars, I'm glad to know that my sorority is raising so much money for such a great cause.
After the philanthropy, I went to my Big's wedding. It was so beautiful! Unfortunately, it was a bit chilly, but they were kind enough to make us all blankets, which were also really cute! It was a great ceremony and an awesome reception, but it was kind of bittersweet to watch my Big get married, to be honest! I love her so much, and I'm glad she's happy, but being the spoiled Little I am, I still want her all to myself! I guess I'll just learn to share!
That's all for now! I hope everyone has a great week and cheers for the Buffs tomorrow during the Blackout game! GO BUFFS!

DETROIT - OCTOBER 05: Calvin Johnson #81 of the Detroit Lions catches a pass during warm up before the game against the Chicago Bears at Ford Field on October 5, 2008 in Detroit, Michigan. (Photo by Harry How/Getty Images)
Four days after breaking the NFL single-season record for receiving yards, Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson was named as a starter to the NFC Pro Bowl team. Johnson becomes the first Lion to be a Pro Bowler in three consecutive years since running back Barry Sanders was selected 10 straight years from 1990-99. Johnson needs 108 receiving yards Sunday against Chicago for 2,000 on the season. Two of his teammates, defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh and quarterback Matthew Stafford, were named as Pro Bowl alternates and could be added to the roster if other players ahead of themare scratched. The rosters were determined by a voting of players, coaches and fans. The Pro Bowl is Jan. 27, one week before the Super Bowl, in Honolulu.

Salmon Runs Dwindling in Central Kitsap
The chum salmon run started about two weeks early in Chico Creek and ended about two weeks early as well, according to Jon Oleyar, a fisheries biologist who counts salmon on the eastern side of the Kitsap Peninsula.
Most salmon have spawned, and only small numbers of live fish remain in most streams in Central and North Kitsap, said Oleyar, an employee of the Suquamish Tribe.
The Chico Creek system — which includes Dickerson, Kitsap and Wildcat creeks — produces the largest chum run on the Kitsap Peninsula. Normally, the peak of the run comes about Thanksgiving. According to Oleyar, this year's Chico run is about average, but the pattern of arrival was moved up by about two weeks — something quite unusual.
Because of steady and ongoing rains, salmon got farther up in many Kitsap streams than they have for years, he noted.
Chum salmon are still coming into major streams in South Kitsap, he said. Gorst Creek, known for its late run of chum, may still be getting fish arriving at Christmas, he said. Salmon in Gorst Creek can be seen from viewing platforms in Otto Jarstad Park on Belfair Valley Road.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Federal Emergency Management Agency Community Relations teams are working in three Kentucky counties, reaching out to residents, business owners, nonprofit agencies and faith-based organizations in areas under the disaster declaration for July flooding.
CR – shorthand for Community Relations – is FEMA's "front line." CR specialists walk neighborhoods to talk with people. They listen and share information on how to get help. They also work to identify people with special needs, veterans, seniors and those with disabilities.
"We wouldn't be as effective at reaching people impacted by the flooding without CR specialists,"
said Kentucky Division of Emergency Management Director John Heltzel. "They're literally walking
every affected area, going door-to-door informing residents and business owners of the assistance
that's available."
CR teams have been in Pike County since the county was declared eligible for federal assistance on
July 23. Teams have been deployed to Carter and Lewis counties to assist in spreading information about recovery efforts there.
Easily identified by FEMA photo ID badges, CR specialists seek out any location where people affected by the disaster might be found. They provide information on how to access recovery resources such as grants to help pay for temporary housing needs, essential home repairs and other uninsured disaster-related expenses.
Low-interest disaster loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration may also be available to homeowners and renters to cover residential losses and to nonprofit organizations and businesses of
all sizes.
Heltzel encouraged homeowners and renters in Carter, Lewis and Pike counties who sustained
damages resulting from the July severe storms, flooding and mudslides to register with FEMA
for disaster assistance.
Individuals may register online at www.DisasterAssistance.gov, or by calling FEMA's toll-free registration line at 800-621-FEMA (3362), or TTY 800-462-7585.
Additional information, photos and links for this and other open disasters can be found at www.kyem.ky.gov and www.fema.gov.
FEMA's mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that as a nation we work together to build, sustain, and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards.
Disaster recovery assistance is available without regard to race, color, religion, nationality, sex, age, disability, English proficiency or economic status. If you or someone you know has been discriminated against, call FEMA toll-free at 800-621-FEMA (3362). For TTY call 800-462-7585.
FEMA's temporary housing assistance and grants for public transportation expenses, medical and dental expenses, and funeral and burial expenses do not require individuals to apply for an SBA loan.
However, applicants who receive SBA loan applications must submit them to the SBA to be eligible for assistance that covers personal property, vehicle repair or replacement, and moving and storage expenses.

Publisher's Description
Travel along with Elise Finster and her British mistress, Lady Anne Stone, as they search for the new but missing earl of Stoneford. Determined to follow David Stone's somewhat cold trail leading to Oregon, greenhorns Elise and Anne secure livestock and supplies to join a wagon train. Will the ladies succeed in their quest or succumb to the malfeasance of the mysterious man dogging their heels? Scout Eb Bentley's initial disgust with these ill-prepared women eventually turns into admiration for one lady in particular. Can he protect her long enough to win her over, or will prairie dreams turn into a Wild West nightmare?

Anyway, I really liked this book. For anyone who wishes they would have been born "back in the day" this is a fascinating read. Parts of pioneer life are skipped over for the sake of the story line, but you get the picture of what life was like traveling the wagon train. It has enough mystery to keep a reader's attention, and enough romance to stir your emotions. I'm glad I read it.

Samsøn is proud to present Suzannah Sinclair's 2nd solo exhibition with the gallery: "Tomorrow is Here" from March 26 – May 1st, 2010: Artist's Reception Friday, March 26 / 6-8pm
The new ocean paintings are 8 x 11 inches; the size of a page from these same vintage men's magazines devoid of figures.
"They are sometimes from advertisements trying to convey a warm easy feeling that embody the beauty and stillness that I find in the women I paint. I like the pairing of 'Sister What a Good Time': landscape, that insane feeling of getting lost in the depths of someone's eyes or the blue depth of the ocean."
The works will be installed in an environment complete with lamps, rugs, Bertoia benches and pots/planters with plants setting a stage for comfort, suggestion & space-time. A mirror can be part of a scene without the figure through reflection.
"I like the word 'quietude'. Just saying…"
Suzannah Sinclair was born in Frankfurt, Germany in 1979 and currently resides in NY, NY

Renting a van
We will be in Sweden in July. There will be 6 of us. I was just told by a rental car agency that for 6 people we would need to rent a van (and was quoted over $1,000 for 6 days). They said that a van has room for 6 people but no luggage. (Consequently we reserved a car for 4 people which will hold luggage, and the Swedish couple will drive their own car.) Has anyone had any experience with renting a vehicle that holds 6 people and luggage? Thanks.

Wild Wild Winter is a 1966 Universal Pictures comedy film in the beach party genre, starring Gary Clarke and Chris Noel. It is directed by standup comedian Lennie Weinrib and produced by Bart Patton and is notable for featuring Jay and the Americans and the duo of Dick and Dee Dee in their only film appearances. The Beau Brummels, Jackie and Gayle and The Astronauts also perform onscreen.[1]
Fraternity brothers at the fictional Alpine College in the mountains recruit Ronnie Duke (Clarke), a surfer friend from California to seduce Susan Benchley (Noel), head of the school sorority and secretary to Dean Carlton (James Wellman), because Susan has brainwashed the other female students on campus to avoid dating the boys. Ronnie sets out a plan to become captain of the ski team and win over Susan, who is engaged to John Harris (Steve Franken), while he also attempts to save the school from its financial troubles.
Production notes[edit]
This film was shot on location at the Alpine Meadows Ski Resort near Lake Tahoe, California.[2]
Wild Wild Winter is the last of four films in the beach party genre that made use of a winter setting. The other three are MGM's Get Yourself a College Girl (1964), AIP's Ski Party (1965), and Columbia Pictures' Winter A-Go-Go (1965).
A follow-up to Lennie Weinrib's previous beach party film, Beach Ball, this film was originally titled Snow Ball, then Snowbound (the only lyrics to Wild Wild Wild Winter's opening theme song are "Snowbound, snowbound!") While technically not a sequel to Beach Ball, this film utilizes the same writer (Sam Locke) as well four actors from that film's cast: Chris Noel (named Susan in both films), Don Edmonds, James Wellman and Dick Miller.
Weinrib's directing career consisted of only three films – all in the beach party genre: the aforementioned Beach Ball from 1965, and both Wild Wild Winter and Out of Sight from 1966.
The Astronauts was a Boulder, Colorado-based surf band[3] who had a Billboard Top 100 hit in 1963 with their song "Baja." They appeared in three other beach party films (Surf Party, Wild on the Beach and Out of Sight) – more than any other surf band.
The composer for this film, Jerry Long also wrote the score for another beach party film, Catalina Caper. Both films are his only onscreen credits.
"Wild Wild Winter", the theme song to the film, was composed by Chester Pipkin.
The Beau Brummels are shown performing their own "Just Wait and See".
The Astronauts perform "A Change of Heart", written by Mark Gordon and the film's composer Chester Pipkin.
Al Capps and Mary Dean wrote two songs heard in the film, "Our Love's Gonna Snowball", sung by Jackie and Gayle; and "Heartbeats", sung by Dick and Dee Dee with the Astronauts shown as performing back-up.
The Astronauts are also shown as providing back-up for Jay and the Americans' performance of "Two of a Kind" (written by Victor Millrose and Tony Bruno).
A soundtrack to the film was released on Decca Records in December 1965.[4]

As home values start to pick up and Philadelphia enjoys its first significant growth spurt in a long time, a different story unfolds for those on the lower end of the income spectrum.
In her latest "Changing Skyline" column, critic Inga Saffron writes that while the city's gentrifying neighborhoods push up prices, inclusionary housing tends to fall by the wayside, even when developers promise to include subsidized units in their buildings.
Inclusionary housing, which is basically an "if you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours " deal, involves developers pricing some of their apartments for below-market rates in favor of receiving zoning bonuses. Some do it, most don't. As Saffron points out, the number of market-rate residences outweighs affordable housing in the area:
You could probably fit every unit of affordable housing being built in Philadelphia today inside one of the fancy glass skyscrapers going up in University City, and still have a couple of floors left over. That's not because the new towers are so immense, but because the city produces so little subsidized housing for the poor and working class.

Thoughts on Semin's injury, Methot's stalemate and the bottom line in Broward County.
It would seem that Alexander Semin is still recovering from wrist surgery, a procedure the skilled Russian-born winger underwent in late May. That's a bad sign for the Hurricanes obviously, and might give me some pause in gambling on Semin to bounce back in a major way next season.
Semin, who played through this injury for much of last season and was said to be unable to take a wrist shot, only managed 22 goals and 42 points last season - his lowest cumulative total since 2007-08. The days of him potting 30 goals and 80 points are probably over, but if Semin's healthy, I certainly think it's reasonable to expect 25 goals and 60 points.
The problem then is that it doesn't sound like Semin is particularly healthy, and though I'm sure he'll be ready to open training camp, you have to wonder how much that wonky wrist is going to bother him this season (especially early on).
The Ottawa Senators are having a tough time working out a contract extension with defenseman Marc Methot. This isn't a huge surprise - Methot seems to have fallen out of favor a bit in the Canadian capital anyway, and he likely saw the way this summer's free agent frenzy played out for other "shutdown defenseman" and has a pretty high appraisal of his value on the open market.
I'd urge potential buyers to beware on Methot. Though he's a useful piece, I very much don't think he's a top-of-the-roster quality defender and the performance of his defensive partners with (vs. without) him would suggest that he's not exactly moving the needle in terms of shot attempt differential.
One day the Ottawa Senators will find a defender who can really skate to pair with Erik Karlsson. That day though is probably not coming this summer...
Speaking of defensive defenseman, former journeyman NHL blue-liner Jason Strudwick wrote an interesting piece on analytics over at OilersNation.com. I don't particularly agree with the "it doesn't have to be one or the other" misnomer (we really have to get past the idea that anyone is recommending you build a team just based on Corsi For percentage...), but I found Strudwick's explanation of how he's come to value the stats as a former player very interesting, and doubly so since Strudwick was not a player who the underlying numbers flattered.
Also interesting: how the ultimate failure of the 2013-14 Toronto Maple Leafs test case was a tipping point for Strudwick (and presumably many others in the hockey world), and the acceptance of analytics. Because there's nothing like a statistically improbable event - like an 80 point team going from third in the East to way out of the playoff picture by picking up just four points in their last 14 games of the season - to vouch for playing the odds...
According to Florida Panthers Vice Chairman Doug Cifu, new cats head coach Gerard Gallant so impressed owner Vincent Viola in their meeting that, within 30 minutes, he all but declared the club's coaching search over.
Of course, reports at the time would suggest that Dan Bylsma was the front runner and the reason he didn't take his talents to South Beach was that the Panthers wouldn't offer him the sort of lucrative contract that he was looking for...
In the same interview, by the way, Cifu refers to the club's business model not being sustainable and talks about incurring years and years of massive losses.
Fascinating, compelling stuff from Harrison Mooney over at Puck Daddy on the subject of a potential ECHL/CHL merger, ECHL integration into the AHL, the Western migration of minor league hockey and its potential impact on NHL teams.
It seems to me that if the AHL is going to pull off an expansion as ambitious as what Mooney details, then they desperately need to rebrand their game.
I enjoy watching the occassional AHL games, but I'm an insane hockey nerd. In general, the AHL game is a lot slower than the NHL product. That's not just in terms of on-ice pace, but also how many stoppages there are, the number of fights there are, and how long the game literally takes to play.
That an AHL game can take 3.5 hours to watch sometimes is brutal, and really tests my patience (and again, I'm a pretty significant societal outlier in terms of my "willingness to watch an endless amount of hockey"). I really think that's an issue that needs to be solved if the AHL is going to attract more fans.
High quality streams of games would be nice too. Also the occassional 19-year-old who is legitimately ready to play, and shouldn't have to spin his wheels in junior for no good reason except that the NHL treats the CHL as a favored partner for whatever reason.
Jordan Nolan taking the Stanley Cup to a 'mini pow-wow' is all kinds of awesome.
There's just three more weeks until September, and four-and-a-half more weeks until the Penticton Young Stars and Traverse City tournament's open. After those prospect tournaments it's just one short week until training camp and then the preseason only lasts for 12 days before coming to a close on October 4th. After that, there's just four days until the start of hockey season.
If you look at it this way, then the dog days of summer seem somewhat less interminable.
Barring any playoff overtime games, not once was there a game that took over 3.5 hours, nevermind 3 hours.
Nice job working the laffs into the ramblings again.
No pot shots at MTL though? Disappointing. Would love to hear more about how PK 'dragged' them to the Eastern Conference Finals. 'Dragged' definitely covers a 4 game sweep, plus an epic 7 game series in which the goaltender stood on his head. Keep the intelligence comin'!

Lots of candidates have embarrassing things in their past that they'd hate to have flare up in the middle of a presidential campaign. I think we can safely conclude that we have found Rick Santorum's! At the right, cast your eyes upon the tragedy that is Santorum's high school year book photo--specifically, Carmel High School in Mundelein, Illinois, in 1976. (The picture is from Chris Good's compilation of high school year book photos of the 2012 Republican presidential candidates--it's not pretty, although I recommend clicking through.)

Starting May 4, 2013, a coast to coast for tiddlers
Beginning May 4th there will be a no holds barred, balls to the wall run from New York to Los Angeles. The ride is billed as the "Real Cannonball" and will be for motorcycles up to 250cc for modern bikes and 360cc for vintage bikes of 30+ years of age. There are four motorcycle classes. We will begin at the starting point of the Brock Yates/Dan Gurney ride of the 1970's that protested the national 55mph speed limit of that era, and will finish at their end destination. So, basically, we're talking about leaving from the Red Ball Garage in Manhattan, NY and riding to the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach, Ca. There's also a scooter class. Details are available at sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/trctd. Check it out and join the fun.
This sounds sweet! Makes me want to buy back my DS7 Yami.
