Welcome to NAMI Spokane
When the National Alliance on Mental Illness was organized in 1979, state and local affiliates immediately began springing up across the country. NAMI Spokane was among the first, and by 1980 was promoting and providing mental health advocacy as a non-profit corporation with an office in downtown Spokane. For over 30 years we've been part of the nation's largest grassroots organization dedicated to helping people open their minds and learn that mental illnesses are biological brain disorders that can be successfully managed through medical treatment and family and community support. The NAMI network joins all of its members and friends as a voice of reason and ray of hope for those whose lives have been affected by severe mental illnesses. Our strength lies in the wonderful volunteers who staff our office, teach our courses, lead our support groups and represent us in the community. Our shared understanding based on personal experience allows us to gain empathy and an increased capacity for love by supporting our relatives, our friends and each other. We are all PEERs in mental health advocacy: Persons of Experience Engaged in Recovery.

I love surprises, little somethings wrapped up in pretty paper and elegant ribbon, shiny satin or lush velvet. Rings slipped into tiny silk sachets pushed across a white tablecloth or chocolates wrapped up in gold, tucked into tissue paper that rustles as I choose. I remember when my dad parked the new car he had bought my mom on the front lawn all decked out in a giant, bright red ribbon, the bow sitting jauntily atop the roof as he led her out of the house to see. Marty wrapped up in JP's jacket against the March cold, baby face just peeping out from between the lapels, a little bundle of joy. Special gifts in boxes much too big simply to throw me off the scent or presents hidden under the coats in the back of the closet for curious hands to find, searching in the dark days before Christmas. Parcels that come in the post enveloped in brown paper and string, ripping it open after days or weeks of anticipation.
Old black & white movies, images of elegant women wrapped in luxurious furs back in the days when it was politically correct; movie star poses, fur sliding softly down, caressing bare skin, a shoulder bared just so, coat parted to reveal a shimmering gown and just enough leg to excite imaginations. Children running out of the chilly surf, scooped up and quickly wrapped in beach towels, their plush warmth all cuddly and safe.
Or simply wrapped up in his arms.
Or what about rice wrapped up in grape leaves or delicate slivers of fish swathed in dark, glistening nori, dark jewel-like prunes wrapped in bacon and grilled, the sweetness of the fruit mingling sensuously with the saltiness of the meat, fresh, tangy goat cheese snuggled into smooth smoky roasted red pepper, bananas and strawberries enrobed in warm, sexy chocolate smearing lips and dripping down fingers.
Why are things wrapped in something else so attractive, so delicious? Why do they remind us of presents from loved ones, exciting surprises? or snuggling deep down into blankets or wrapped up in the warmth and glow of a burning fire?
I love lamb. It's my predilection. If I have my druthers – and I usually do – I cook lamb. But after all the tagines and couscous, the roasts and the chops, I was in the mood for something fun, something special, something to surprise. These gorgeous, flavorful keftas wrapped up in filo (phyllo) dough are a special treat indeed. They were inspired by a recipe I saw in Cuisine & Vins de France and were greeted, as I placed them on the table, piled high, in front of my men, by ooohs and ahhhs. Biting into the crispy wrap, tasting the savory filling and the room was filled with mmmmms.
20 – 25 oz (600 – 700 g) ground/minced lamb
6 sheets of filo (phyllo) dough
2 slices white bread
3/8 cup (100 ml) milk (if you don't mix milk and meat, replace with water)
2 onions
2 Tbs pine nuts
1 large egg
1 small bunch fresh coriander
1 tsp liquid honey
1 tsp allspice
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground coriander
Salt & freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil or melted butter for the filo dough
Place the ground/minced lamb in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the 2 onions. Heat a large skillet, preferably non-stick, over medium heat and add a little oil, butter or margarine. Cook the chopped onions for several minutes until caramelized a golden brown.
Beat the egg in a small bowl. Measure out the spices. Soak the two slices of bread in the milk until soaked then squeeze out all of the excess milk. Chop the soaked and squeezed bread finely. Finely chop the fresh coriander.
Add the caramelized onions, the bread, the beaten egg, the chopped coriander, the honey, the spices and the pine nuts to the ground lamb. Add the spices to the meat and generously salt and pepper.
Using your hands, blend all the ingredients with the ground meat until completely and evenly combined.
Spread a sheet of parchment paper out on a large serving platter or an oven tray. Form the meat mixture into quenelles or cylinders of even thickness and about 2 or 3 inches (5 to 8 cm) long and 1 to 1 ½ inches (2 to 3 cm) wide. Lay them on the parchment paper as you prepare them.
Heat back up the skillet you used to fry the chopped onions over medium heat. Add a little oil if it is not non-stick. Brown the quenelles of lamb on all sides, lowering the heat to medium-low if it seems too hot, about 8 minutes each batch. Do not overcrowd. They will still be pink in the center (they will finish cooking in the oven. Remove the browned lamb quenelles to another baking sheet or platter as you go and continue cooking until all of the quenelles are browned.
Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C). Line a large baking tray or cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Working with one sheet of filo dough at a time, brush the sheet with olive oil or melted butter. Evenly slice the sheets into long strips, slicing lengthwise into widths as wide as your quenelles (I divided my strips into lengths 3" (8 cm) wide, the width of my quenelles. Place a quenelle on the end of a strip and simply roll up, sealing the end with a bit more oil or butter. Place, seem side down, on the lined baking sheet. You can place them fairly close together if need be. Brush the outsides with more olive oil or butter.
Bake them for about 10 minutes until golden brown. The meat peeking out each end should be sizzling. Serve immediately.
We ate these with olives, but they would be delicious dipped in a spicy dipping sauce or even a cool, tangy tzatziki-type sauce. You can accompany them with a salad of tomatoes, cucumbers and onions. They can be made smaller to serve as finger foods or hors d'oeuvres.

In a model of CTBs cocultured with HUSASMCs, preeclamptic serum effectively decreased the invasive ability and FasL mRNA expression of the CTBs. Preeclampsia serum also increased HUSASMC viability, decreased their apoptotic rate, and decreased the expression of Fas mRNA and protein. Conclusion: The abnormal invasive ability of CTBs and decreased expression of the Fas/FasL system may be directly involved in the defective remodeling of the uterine spiral arteries during preeclampsia. Furthermore, the decrease in HUSASMC apoptosis may be related to the abnormal expression of Fas/FasL.
This is WAY COOL. These researchers figured out that yeah, there's stuff in our blood that is keeping cytotrophoblastic cells (CTBs) from advancing into the spiral arteries and remodeling them. And roughly which ligands it's messing with. I need to pull the full-text to say more.

Happy Birthday, Prince William! See Him Battle Pregnant Kate Middleton at Hogwarts (PHOTOS)
Prince William turns 31 today, June 21. And today is the 10th anniversary of the release of the book ;Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth in the magical saga. ;So what better day to combine the two in this awesome gallery!
The recent Inauguration of Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in London had some royal guests! Pregnant Kate Middleton and Prince William, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, attended the inauguration along with Prince Harry. As the trio toured the Harry Potter sets, photo ops appeared like magic!
Watch these royals have a blast making magic happen and having wand battles in Diagon Alley, hanging with Hagrid in the Hogwarts Great Hall, and, of course, visiting with children.
Of course, this was as much business as it was pleasure — one of William's causes is being president of the British Academy, which partners with the studio to set up scholarships for aspiring film industry workers.
"On the other hand, Harry's just excited to see a real life talking owl in the Harry Potter studios," William said in his inaugural speech, "I haven't told him yet that Harry Potter is fictional, so please keep the secret for a little longer."
It was great to see the Duke and Duchess out and about together! And the pair looks like they're having a fantastic time.
Of course, Kate's bump gets bigger by the day. We can't wait for the Royal Baby to be born... any week now!

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (October 10, 2012)--The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency said Wednesday that 11 of Lance Armstrong's former teammates testified against the Texan in its investigation of the cyclist, revealing "the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen."
The USADA will deliver its reasoned decision against Armstrong later Wednesday, a summary of the facts it used to hand him a lifetime suspension and erase his seven Tour de France titles.
In a news release previewing the decision, USADA CEO Travis Tygart listed 11 of Armstrong's former teammates, including George Hincapie, Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton, as among those who provided evidence that led to the sanction.
In delivering the report to the International Cycling Union, Tygart called for the federation to create a program to help clean up the sport.

i'll let you no when i have thought of one :?
i'll let you no when i have thought of one :?
Hmmmm... that's a good one.
I hate to be brutally honest....
So I'll just say that it's an arrangement of a very popular hymn, spoiled by some awful chording.
But that's just my opinion. Many people like it.
name of the hymn would be helpful alot of popular hymns out there
Be careful here please Ladies and Gentlemen.
We don't want to offend anyone by telling them that their music is the
the worst piece in the world!
Exactly what I was thinking....
But hey, this is all about opinion.
Christmas Swingalong! Only because I've played it about 10,628 times
Blue Rondo Alla Turk. Jeez.
And an arrangement of Edward Grieg's "Holberg Suite". That's one way to ruin perfectly good music.
But I have heard worse...some arrangements of popular music, for instance.
I TOTALLY DISAGREE!! Blue Rondo Alla Turk is fantastic!! i love that piece.
My worst has to be ermmmmm: The british open test piece this year. Forgotten the name but i REALLY struggled listening to 20 bands playing that! It begins with an M lol.
Kimmy xXx
'Cavatina'.....especially when its been played 3,0000 times!
Hey, my avatar's worked too!
Merry Christmas everybody!!!!!!
I think that the Ground Force tune is really groovy....
But I must admit, they play it all the way through the programme it does get a little bit annoying after a while
Love Bexc.x
I agree with you Kimmy - haven't played it for years, but I reckon it's brilliant too!Originally Posted by kimmy
Good piece i hate the horn part cos it looks easy to play and it's not
Thanxs Spooky

Man detained for misuse of 911
An Aiken man was detained for misuse of 911 after he reportedly called County dispatch while intoxicated and became belligerent with a dispatcher and first responders, according to the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
Dana Derek Owens, 46, of Lander Lane, was placed in the Aiken County detention center, where he remained on Friday night.
According to a sheriff's report, Owens called 911 and began calling the dispatcher a racial slur and using profanity. Officers arrived and found Owens, who they said was "extremely intoxicated."
Owens made no threats toward himself but said "he was pissed at the system" and began cussing at the officer and EMTs that responded, according to the report.

Demi Lovato: "It Is Very Unhealthy When Girls Devote All Of Their Time To a Guy"
Demi Lovato is so inspirational, and we're not just talking about her magnificent ever-changing eyebrows. This gal has more than opened up about her eating disorder, and continues to be a champion of healthy nutrition habits for teens.
"It's OK to love your body the way it is," she tells Cosmo on Campus (via E!), "and it's OK to reach out for help if you have drug and alcohol problems, or if you're self-harming or being bullied."
Demi was pretty young when she developed her eating disorder, and she's determine to help her teenage fans remain positive about their bodies. "That's my goal in talking about my problems," she says. "I want to be the person for other girls that I needed to admire when I was looking for help and strength."
Demi thinks teens can become insecure about their bodies by focusing on their dating lives. "It is very unhealthy when girls devote all of their time to a guy and forget their friends and family," she shares. "I did that. I was always looking for distractions because I was so afraid of being alone."
Nowadays Demi says she is "taking care of myself and not focusing on guys," and has been living in a sober house in order to keep her rehabilitation on track. It's okay, guys, you're not the only one sobbing and applauding toward your computer screens at what an inspiration this gal is.

Ascutney man fined for firing gunBy ERIC FRANCIS
CORRESPONDENT | May 20,2013photo ERIC FRANCIS
Charles Johnson, 60, of Ascutney was fined $750 Thursday for firing shots into the floor of his home last November after he got into an argument with family members over who was going to cook dinner.WHITE RIVER JUNCTION An Ascutney man was fined $750 for firing at least four gunshots into the living room floor of his home during an argument that took place in November with his wife and daughter about whether or not he was going to cook his own dinner.
Charles Johnson, 60, pleaded guilty to amended charges of disorderly conduct Thursday during a hearing at the criminal courthouse in White River Junction.
Windsor County States Attorney Michael Kainen explained to Judge Robert Gerety that after conducting depositions the state had decided to drop the original felony charges of first-degree aggravated domestic assault and amend the original reckless endangerment charges because the victims in the case did not actually feel threatened.
Whether by accident or to add emphasis, a gun was fired into the floor, Kainen explained to Gerety, but, he added, While both wife and daughter said Mr. Johnson was tumultuous, swearing at them, and fired a gun in the house, the gun was not pointed at them and they never felt they were at risk of serious bodily injury or death.
Kainen said the offenses that Saturday evening, which were committed while Johnson was extremely intoxicated, prompted a large law enforcement response to Gird Lot Road in Ascutney which in itself amounted to a substantial public inconvenience, which is a key element of Vermonts disorderly conduct statute.
Gerety commended both Kainen and Johnsons defense attorney, Bill Whitten, for skillful lawyering as he accepted the amended plea deal. After Johnson was successfully talked into surrendering peacefully to the contingent of troopers, police and wardens that were surrounding his house that November evening, officers learned that Johnson had originally snapped after his wife had asked him if he wanted supper and he said he would get his own (expletive) supper and the confrontation escalated from there, police said.MORE IN This Just InBy Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli Full StoryBennington College and Middlebury College both top a list for most entrepreneurial colleges in...

A few weeks before initial reports that Apple was planning to acquire Beats Electronics, I started AT&T's three month trial of the Beats Music subscription streaming service.. Given that generous window of time, I felt more comfortable investing my time than I would with a one or two week trial. When news broke that Apple was in final talks to purchase Beats, I was caught off guard and immediately concerned that the subscription service that I was starting to really like would change under Apple's watch. Since the deal has been made official, Apple has said that Beats Music will continue as it is (across multiple platforms even) as will the headphones line (Beats branded, not Apple branded) for now.
Because I was rather surprised by the appeal of Beats Music and Apple is now endorsing the headphones more than ever (even if only really for their massive profit margins), I got really curious Friday afternoon to try out a pair of Beats headphones first hand so I did just that. I've been using the Beats Studio Wireless headphones (Amazon) just about all waking hour of this weekend, and below you can read my thoughts on one of the products included in Apple's biggest acquisition to date.
I'll start by including a major disclaimer to which the majority of people can probably relate: I am not an audiophile. In a blind test, I probably couldn't tell apart moderately decent headphones from professional studio headphones, but I can certainly recognize crappy headphones when I hear them.
Apple's EarPods are better than those free ear buds that came with any CD player or MP3 player before the iPod debuted; they're may not be incredible, but they're not bad either. Beats are probably that way too, but over-the-ear headphones should sound better than any ear buds and be the direct upgrade path from the free ones that come in the box, and I think that Beats headphones probably serve that area well.
Now for more on my initial impressions with the Beats Studio Wireless headphones. These first few thoughts are not about the sound quality but instead about the experience before you actually push play.
The packaging on the Beats Studio Wireless headphones feels really premium like those Apple boxes in my office closet that I secretly collect. Too nice to throw away. It is, however, bulkier than it could be. While the packaging does note that it is recyclable, it's an area in which I imagine Apple would want to improve like it has done with its own packaging in recent years.
The headphones are packed compactly in a Beats case. In sounds silly to say, admittedly, but they have this new car smell upon unboxing. Overall, the opening experience is similar to holding a box set collection of music and the included case with the headphones feels like a storing a nice pair of sunglasses. It's not at all unlike the initial experience with opening a MacBook; Beats should just use less material to accomplish the same thing.
What's in the box?
Included aside from the headphones is a number of goodies like the headphones case I mentioned above and a large Beats logo sticker as well as a nice carabiner with Beats branded on it. You also get a very Beats branded wall adapter and USB cable as well as two audio wires, one with phone and music controls and one without. The wire without phone and music controls in my set is black while the USB cable and wire with phone and music controls are both red. I'm less concerned with the color of USB cable, but I would have much preferred the wire with phone and music controls was black like the headphones. They're matte black without the signature red accent so it's not ideal to have a flashy wire attached. Luckily, the set I purchased is wireless. More on that later.
As for the actual headphones, the Beats Studio set is much more comfortable than my previous set of headphones (V-Moda Crossfades). In fact, a lot of over-the-ear headphones often feel too tight (okay, maybe my head is big), but this set feels especially lighter and more cushiony.
I would say overall comfortability is good, but not great as it still feels better to take them off rather than keep wearing them after lengthier periods of time (I'm talking hours here). My previous set was just bad, plain and simple, after even a few songs to the point where I just didn't use them; I can tolerate several hours of listening with the Studios.
They're even relatively comfortable to wear around the neck if you need to slide them off for a bit, but there's probably an opportunity here for refinements by Apple.
As for the look and design of the Studio Wireless set, both the matte black and titanium gray colors look very sharp. The other options including black with red accents, blue, white, and red probably have more personality if that's what you're looking for, but the glossy material looks more plasticky for the same price (and I still wish the audio wire with phone and music controls was black, not red, in the matte black set).
The headphones fold inward and compact quite impressively into the included carrying case. It's almost like folding a pair of nice sunglasses and casing them. This comes in handy when packing them, I imagine, as I've cracked larger headsets in my backpack in the past.
You can also adjust the height up and down to fit looser or tighter. My only complaint here is that when you make either side taller the inside of the band is exposed and much narrower. This has an incomplete look to it that could be handled better. If nothing else, I hope this is a detail that Apple improves.
About the audio quality: music sounds loud and full, podcasts sound loud and full, you don't hear the noise around you much if at all. Compared to EarPods? Blow away. Compared to my V-Modas? Definitely better, and I would expect that given the big gap in price ($180 difference reguarly), but it's probably the design and feature set that I'm attached to the most. That's why I opted for the more expensive Bluetooth set; wireless plus design is a winning combination if the audio quality is better than my last set. It is.
The bass is certainly heavy, I think everyone has already well established that, and initial reviews of the new Solo2 headphones say Beats is addressing that by upping the high end as well. I kind of like it myself. When you turn the volume up way higher than you should probably be allowed to, the speakers actually thump like a stereo pushing out air. This excited me, but I admit it can't be safe. If you're listening to music through something with a customizable equalizer, you can even adjust the sound to something more balanced to a degree.
It terms of audio quality, they're certainly the best headphones I have owned, and I think that's the point. I'm not an audiophile and I'm really not certain I would know how to recognize and appreciate something more high end. What can I say?
As for the wireless aspect of this particular set, I find it to be a really cool feature to have. Wearing headphones when doing different things around the house like vacuuming or unloading the dish washer is noticeably less frustrating with the absence of a cord dangling between my head and pocket. It also feels really appropriate using a MacBook Air, which if of course wireless and light, with wireless headphones. You're not tethered to your laptop by the wire and that's really cool.
The range when using Bluetooth is rated at 30 feet according to Beats, and I've found that I can be as far as 45 to 50 feet before the connection experiences any interruptions. But AirPlay support of some kind is an obvious wish list item for an Apple-owned Beats headset. I have an AirPlay-supported speaker and a Bluetooth-connected speaker around my house, and it's so much easier to manage and connect to AirPlay over Bluetooth hands down. The range when using AirPlay is also much better as my Wi-Fi network extends not just across rooms but beyond my house by several feet.
Playback controls
The playback and phone controls could also improve compatibility with iOS with Apple's guidance. For example, you can use Siri on a paired iOS device when in wireless mode, but you have to prompt Siri from the home button on the device. When in wired mode, of course, you can prompt Siri from the music playback and phone controls without actually touching the device. For this reason, I would love to see a future version with more of Apple's influence include a way to interact with Siri in your pocket from the controls on the headphones in wireless mode.
The current product offers standard playback that you have on the music controls of Apple's EarPods: play, pause, skip forward, skip back, and volume up and down.
Noise canceling & battery life
A few other areas to note include support for adaptive noise canceling and battery life. The headphones do produce a small degree of white noise if no audio is playing when powered on in either wired or wireless mode, which is really useful when trying to focus on working in a noisy environment or zone out and relax in any environment. Battery life is rated at 12 hours of playback in wireless mode, which is longer than the battery life on an iPad and as long as the battery life on a 13″ MacBook Air, and playback in wired mode nets you 20 hours of usage. Charging is also pretty fast; I went from drained to full in less than three hours using the included power adapter. The battery indicator light on the headphones is sleek, too, in an Apple way.
The charger uses Micro USB like many battery-equipped accessories and Android phones. I'd like to see this move to Lightning when Apple designed Beats headphones start shipping eventually. As an iPhone and iPad user, I always know where a Lightning cable is, but I don't keep up with a Micro USB cable nearly as well. Beats headphones, however, aren't just accessories intended for use with iOS devices so moving to Lightning isn't likely (and maybe not smart). Oh well.
As for additional "what different under Apple" ideas, I think it would be useful to have fewer options, or at least better differentiate between models, in the Beats headphone line. Admittedly, I decided based on design and feature set, but it's not immediately obvious the differences between each model with the current lineup in the way it is between iPad Air and iPad mini or iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. With the current lineup, I think design and price point are probably the two biggest deciding factors, but I'd like to see more clear differentiating factors in future lineups without having to be a Beats connoisseur.
At any rate, I'm certainly pleased with my set of Beats Studio Wireless headphones for now, including sound quality in music playback and podcast playback. I'm actually kind of addicted to using these probably more than I should be at this point. Being able to connect wireless via Bluetooth to my iPhone, iPad, and Mac is really futuristic feeling and especially convenient. I'm not as certain I would appreciate a wired pair as much, personally; I think it's worth the extra expense to opt for wireless if you're already making the purchase.
As for the price point, I would much prefer to have the design and feature set of the Studio Wireless Beats at a lesser cost. At $379 (Amazon Prime), they're not exactly dispensable like a set of ear buds, but they are very nice once you accept that you're buying a decent set of headphones to last a while.
I'd certainly like to see improvements with the amount of packing material included, increased Siri compatibility, support for AirPlay, and maybe even Apple TV connectivity in the future.
With that being said, I wouldn't expect any major changes in the Beats line any time soon as Apple doesn't expect the Beats acquisition to gain regulatory approval until likely the end of September, and there's some degree of novelty in owning a pair of Beats before they're officially Apple commissioned headphones. There's definitely a lot to like here.

Zac, good job. Thanks for making the point about audiophiles/non-audiophiles. That is what some of us have been saying: a huge number of people are NOT audiophiles, so the Beats headphones are more than good enough for them. Combine that with great marketing and the so-called "cool factor" and Beats had a winning combination to the chagrin of audiophiles out there. Yeah, other brands may be way better, but they are languishing at 10% or less of the market (according to reports).
It is now left for Apple to add that "magic touch" to a brand that already has magic and the sky is the limit. Imagine this: every iPhone, iPod in the world comes standard with a Beats headphone; every Mac, iPhone, iPad, and iPod comes with Beats speakers (I pray that Apple sees the sense in putting stereo speakers on their iPhones, iPads and iPods soon); every account holder in the iTunes/Apps store is invited to test drive the Beats streaming music service free for 4 months, and so on. With these (and more) I can definitely see the music/video landscape changing soon.
There are at least seven technologies that could benefit everybody's ears:
Bluetooth listening, Bluetooth communications pass-through and noise-reduction are the three that are already being offered, but there are at least four more:
1. Hearing compensation. You can use your iPhone/iPad/iPod right now to give yourself a comprehensive –and quite accurate– audio test that maps out your actual hearing profile. But so far, nobody has applied that to general earphone listening with the iDevices. A future unit could store bunches of hearing compensation profiles for all sorts of listening. Including these:
2. Enhanced presence. Any earphone with active noise reduction has a mic on each ear. That mic could feed its ear a boosted, custom shaped acoustic image. Amplified hearing. Hunting earphones have this now, but it could be an option for a future headphone set. People think of headphones as limiting hearing, but they could amplify environmental awareness, too.
3. Stereo binaural recording. Your iDevice could be the recorder while your headset captured incredibly three dimensional sound. Great for videos.
4. Music listening enhancement live. If you have played with apps like Headquake, Audio Xciter, SRS iWOW, EarPrint or MyTunes Pro, you know that flat or even EQ'd sound is not the limit. A music listening option to item #2 would help, even at concerts. There are actually music listening hearing devices being offered by Sennheiser and others (Google listening system), but they are far from killer.
Ear buds are generally poorer, less comfortable and far less flexible than over-ear headphones. Their one advantage is small, less-obtrusive size. It's time to build in ALL of the ear-friendly technologies in sleek, ergonomic, great-looking devices.
I'm pretty sure those are over ear headphones. Not on ear like you said.
Beats are like crappy sounding Bose headphones… and guess what, I'm not an audiophile either but my I.Q. is also not 2 standard deviations below the mean.
Wel I am an audiophile, and I have a range of cans, and earbuds, from TripleFi 10s to Sennheiser RS 180s. And that's what I'd like to see these compared to, the RS 180s. Please.
Saying please doesn't always get you what you want.
People who've heard previous generation Beats should not judge the new Studios by that experience alone.
Very few headphones feature all of: bluetooth, active noise cancellation, and AAC and/or aptx support. The Beats Studio Wireless headphones are in this category (with AAC only) and they are reasonably comfortable.
My wish list for these headphones includes an easier-to-find power button, distinguishable audio signals for when the headphones change state (e.g., to signal when they turn on and off, so I don't have to take the headphones off to look at a transient LED display), and auto-off when used wirelessly not just wired.
i've had mine for months, i love them.
I have, Bose, and the old Beats, and The new wireless.. They are exelent .. Much better than the old Beats that sux, and much better sound than my Bose, its already like a Apple product when you open the box. I think this is so smart..
This is where I'm left really shaking my head. These headphones are the most overrated product I've ever seen in the world of electronics. I wonder what Apple was thinking. For a company that is usually very good at putting out excellent products, I'm not sure why they would want to put 3 Billion eggs in this basket.
I just bought it. Used them for a weekend, and really want to return them, because of that faint hiss from Active noise cancelation. Also the mid. sound is not so great, I have the previous model, that I personally think sounds better than a new one. I love the design and the brand and I really hope that apple will make them better.
BEST – better than all others: of the highest quality or standard or the most excellent type. That's not necessarily the word i would use to describe these headphones. Maybe fun or even exciting.

Is anyone surprised that Apple bought a company that is way over marketed like their own. This would be a much better review if you got your head out of apple ass and just stuck to the product as it stands. They are overpriced but a good product like all things apple. You said apple and siri almost more than you said beats if not more. That's horrible for a supposed review.

What does the word new mean? That has been what Georgetown City Council is trying to decide when it concerns mobile homes in allowable areas.
City Council gave first reading approval last week to some changes to the mobile home ordinance but asked staff to tweak the wording of the amendments before second reading.
At issue are mobile homes placed in the citys R3 zones.
Councilman Clarence Smalls, who was the one who suggested the ordinance be reviewed and revised, said his main concern was not the ordinance as it is worded but raggedy trailers that are dumped in the West End.
Councilman Rudolph Bradley said he was concerned about the stipulation that any mobile homes moved off a property can only be replaced with a stick or brick structure or a new mobile home.
I am stuck on the word new. Some people cannot afford $140,000. Can the word new be modified? We are not considering an individuals finances, Bradley said.
City Administrator Chris Carter said the word new is in the current ordinance.
I have concerns about it as well, Carter said.
City planner Rick Martin said the definition of new is a mobile home that has never been titled.
Mayor Jack Scoville asked staff to reword the proposed changes before second reading on March 20.
Antenna relocation
Georgetown City Fire Chief Joey Tanner was given permission to spend $24,268 to relocate antennas that are on top of the water tower next to City Hall.
The water tower is expected to be taken down within the next few weeks. The antennas on the water tower are used by the citys fire department and the public service department.
Tanner said the antennas will be relocated to a nearby tower owned by SCANA.
Tanner said SCANA will allow the antennas on their tower free of charge. However, Carter later said the city will not be charged if council agrees to extend SCANAs contract with the city currently set to expire in 2019.
If the contract extension is not granted, it will cost the city $1,500 monthly to have the antennas on the SCANA tower, Carter said.
Steel dust?
During the public comment period of last weeks meeting, Prince Street resident Bret Phillips talked to council about what he said are oxides from ArcelorMattal Steel.
He said he waxed his car on Feb. 19 and by the next morning he could not tell it had been waxed.
He showed council a rag covered in a dust substance he said came from his vehicle the morning after it was waxed.
It has ruined the roof on my house. It makes it impossible to have outdoor furniture, Phillips said. Why is this allowed to continue without repercussions to the steel mill? I have respect for the workers, but I wonder what this is doing to their lungs?
Phillips requested the city contact the Environmental Protection Agency for a team to come to Georgetown to take emission samples.
This has gone on long enough. The steel mill may be in conformity of all the laws, but we do not know. This is a good time to find out, Phillips said.
Mayor Jack Scoville thanked Phillips for his comments but did not say if the city would contact the EPA.

Reading Reactor (or a Google Reader Update)
A Google Reader update, released to a select number of users, solved a weird annoyance and added a long-existing feature to the interface. (Update: The new release is live and it also includes the most requested feature - search.)
Apparently, Google Reader learned to count to 1,000, which is a major improvement if we consider that Google Reader was only able to count to 100. More exactly, all the feeds, folders and other views showed 100+ if you had more than 99 unread items. I wonder if this is a technical limitation or Google is afraid we're not able to handle the information overload.
The other feature lets you hide the sidebar by clicking on a small arrow, like in Google Maps. You can already do this by typing u, but who's going to remember all the keyboard shortcuts? (You don't have to remember them. Google Reader is probably the only major web applications that makes it a piece of cake to see the available shortcuts: just type ?)
Like any grown-up Google product, Reader will also add support for multiple languages and remove all the icons reminiscent of Google Labs. Google Reader is now more than a feed reader, it's responsible for almost anything related to feeds at Google: from iGoogle to the feed API. After all, it started as an Atom parser in JavaScript that became a 20% project.
"[Aaron Boodman] let me know (I'm paraphrasing) that I was missing the big picture and that a reading tool would be more useful if its model started with the item (not the source) as a building block and allowed items to be interleaved and maybe even ranked and recommended to other people. Our conversation meandered into comparing certain views to television as TV channels are important but not as important to viewers as the shows themselves," describes Chris Wetherell the initial vision.
Hopefully, this vision will continue to guide Google Reader. Ranking, filtering, recommending help you see the most important information and obtain a personalized view for your feeds. Google Reader could truly become a reactor by reacting to your signals and to external signals (Reactor is Google Reader's codename).

Thursday, April 18, 2013
Already known for his regular outreach to the local community, Summerville Orthodontist, Dr. Britt Reagin, has announced his latest plans to give cash donations of up to $1,000 to three Summerville-area schools.
By opening voting to local residents, the community-at-large has a rare opportunity to choose three schools to receive either $1,000, $500 or $250. With voting open until April 30, each member of the community is urged to act soon to make their voice heard.
"The spark for this campaign came to me after reviewing the donations made to schools over the past year. Many campaigns were launched by parents and the financial need in the local school system became obvious," says Dr. Reagin, owner of Reagin Orthodontics.
"This inspired me to put forward some money so that students, parents and local groups could mobilize and help their schools earn a donation. I want to help cast light on a worthwhile cause while simultaneously motivating other businesses in the community to enact similar actions," Ragin said.
Social media is Dr. Reagin's publicity vehicle of choice due to its ease of access and high adoption rates in the local area.
By voting online, the local community can choose which Summerville-area schools will benefit from Reagin Orthodontics' generous cash donations.
Voting is easy; simply visit the practice's Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/ReaginOrthodontics) and select the school of your choice by clicking the 'Supporting Schools- Vote Here' icon.
When voting closes on April 30, the three schools with the most votes will enter a final round, where one will be drawn to win a $1,000 donation. The second-drawn school receives $500, and the third $250.
"I highly value my own education and want to make a difference to the futures of others. By involving the local community I believe we can strengthen our spirit and do good collectively. Cast your votes now," Reagin said.

FORT WAYNE — A federal lawsuit was filed this week in connection with the January semi crash in New Haven that killed two women.
On Jan. 8, Scott A. Saunders was driving his semi west on U.S. 30 near Doyle Road when he rear-ended a pair of vehicles and caused a six-vehicle wreck that killed two and injured seven others.
Killed were Suzanne K. Stephenson, 65, of Monroeville and Sandra Dealy, 43, of Convoy, Ohio. Both women were traveling alone in separate vehicles.
They were wearing seat belts and died of blunt-force trauma.
Police said at the time that the light at the intersection turned green and traffic was starting to move forward when Saunders failed to slow down and rear-ended the vehicles.
The lawsuit, which names Saunders, was filed by Stephenson�s husband and seeks at least $75,000 in damages. Saunders� semi was owned by Wisconsin-based Kutzler Express, also named as a defendant in the lawsuit.
Stephenson was a former member of the Monroeville Town Council, according to her obituary.
A spokesman for Kutzler Express said the company was saddened by the deaths and injuries suffered in the crash and was cooperating with investigators.
The crash remains under investigation, according to the Allen County Prosecutor�s Office.
