Hydraulic Fracturing: Testing the Waters
EPA Researchers combine public and technical input on a study of the potential environmental and human health impacts of a technique used to drill for natural gas.
"Natural Gas Now Viewed as Safer Bet," declares a recent headline in The New York Times (March 21, 2011). From the aftermath of the tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan that crippled the Fukishima nuclear reactor, to the BP oil spill, and continued political turmoil in the Middle East, a convergence of energy-related events all seem to be shinning an ever brighter spotlight on natural gas development.
In 2010, the U.S. Congress tasked EPA with planning and conducting a transparent, peer-reviewed study of the relationship between hydraulic fracturing—a method that relies on large amounts of water, sand and chemicals injected at high pressure to crack open underground rock formations to extract natural gas—and its relationship to drinking water resources. (See Hydraulic Fracturing: Drilling for Answers, "Science Matters" Vol 1, No. 2.)
On February 8, 2011, EPA released the Draft Hydraulic Fracturing Study Plan (PDF) (140pp, 2.3 MB).
One of the unique aspects of the development strategy has been the amount of public engagement the Agency has solicited and incorporated into the draft study plan. More than 9,500 people provided written comments, participated in webinars, or spoke up at EPA-held meetings in Texas, Colorado, Pennsylvania, New York, and Washington, DC.
EPA scientist Jeanne Briskin, who is helping lead the hydraulic fracturing study, emphasizes the importance of public input in designing the study. "From each and every group, we have learned important and interesting things that will help make our study better," she says.
Since the Congressional request for the study, Briskin, along with technical lead Dr. Robert W. Puls, and their colleagues have listened carefully. "We've gotten comments from an incredible diversity of stakeholders," says Briskin. "Some feel that hydraulic fracturing and gas development are extremely important because natural gas is an important fuel for our country's future. Others have raised concerns about potential impacts on their air, their water, and their community."
"We feel that not only because Congress told us to, but just in general it is important for us to have a very open and transparent process as we put together our approach to studying this issue so that people can see what we're doing, why we're doing it, and how we're doing it," explains Briskin.
Managing the public input process has been integrated with researching the scientific evidence related to the potential environmental impacts associated with hydraulic fracturing and formulating a scientific strategy for the study plan. Briskin says that "making strong, scientifically-validated information available to the public is important to addressing their concerns and ensuring that policy makers have access to data that will assist them in decision- making."
Combining both public input and scientific strategies is consistent with recommendations made in a key 1996 National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Report, Understanding Risk: Informing Decisions in a Democratic Society. According to the report, five objectives are important to combining public input and science:
- Getting the science right
- Getting the right science
- Getting the participation right
- Getting the right participation
- Developing an accurate, balanced, and informative synthesis.
The Draft Hydraulic Fracturing Study Plan
Briskin and her colleagues followed the objectives illuminated in the NAS report to produce the draft study plan, while focusing on providing the science Congress and the Agency need to make key decisions and on the research needed to advance the sustainability of water resources.
The heart of the study plan is research questions that address each stage of the lifecycle of water used during hydraulic fracturing operations. The five critical stages in this lifecycle are:
- Water acquisition—Large volumes of water are transported for the fracturing process.
- Chemical mixing—Equipment mixes water, chemicals, and sand at the well site.
- Well injection—The hydraulic fracturing fluid is pumped into the well at high injection rates.
- Flowback and produced water—Recovered water (called flowback and produced water) is stored on-site in open pits or storage tanks.
- Wastewater treatment and disposal—The wastewater is then transported for treatment and/or disposal.
Flowback and produced water is generated when the injection pressure in the well is reduced, which allows theses wastewaters to return to the surface. The wastewater contains injected chemicals, natural gas and contaminants that are found in the subsurface rock formation (e.g., dissolved solids, metals and radionuclides).
The wastewater can be treated and used in another hydraulic fracturing operation. More common, however, is treatment followed by disposal in an underground injection control well. In areas without underground injection control wells, such as the Northeastern U.S., the wastewater may be treated and discharged via a publicly-owned treatment plant. Many publicly-owned treatment plants may not be able to remove some of the components of hydraulic fracturing wastewater, such as radionuclides and the high levels of dissolved solids. This is of concern particularly in the Northeastern U.S., where there has been increased activity and interest in natural gas development.
Briskin explains that the research plan is designed to identify which stage of the hydraulic fracturing water lifecycle warrants the closest exploration. Accordingly, her team is planning a series of forward- and backward-looking case studies, scenario evaluations, laboratory work, and an evaluation of the toxicity of chemicals. EPA also will be collaborating with the Department of Energy—which has strong wastewater and radioactivity research programs—in carrying out the study plan, as well as with other Federal partners.
Briskin and her EPA colleagues continue to welcome stakeholder involvement from members of the public, states, industry, tribes, sister Federal agencies, technical experts, and other stakeholders as they select locations for case studies and revise the draft study plan released on February 8, 2011.

Great Peddles
By Chris
from Minneapolis
About Me Avid Cyclist
Comments about Nashbar Double Track Pedals:
When visiting a friend in CO, I borrowed a bike to go mountain biking. The bike had these peddles. I found them to be perfect for me. I climbed stronger and easily clipped out and flipped to the platform when feeling a little nervous on the decent. I bought a pair and put them on my commuter bike. I'm going to buy another pair for my mountain bike.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

excellent recreational pedal
By Bob the Biker
I used to ride 250 miles a week and also was a mountain biker till i lost my leg. Now i just started riding recreationally and this pedal has been a big help. I can clip in to hold my prosthesis stable or i can just use the platform for a short ride.

About Me Casual/ Recreational
See all my reviews
Bought for my wife's nashbar big ol' fat bike. Reviews indicate its not compatible with SPD, but I don't have any issue clipping in with my shoes- who knows what cleats I'm using, but they are certainly SPD compatible. I like the design of the old model of this pedal better- it has 8 set screws rather than 4- but overall- this is a good budget dual use pedal.

Awesome budget pedals
By T-Rev

Great pedals for the money. No need to spend tons of money on some high end name brand....Nashbar is my name brand and I love them!!!! I'm no slouch on the trails, and these pedals are bomb!
High Profile, fast tracking.

Good idea, marginal execution
By Pedal Reviewer 1
from California
Been searching for something like this forever. Nashbar's one is lighter than the Wellgo version by 100 grams. The platform size is like a regular M636 from Shimano. It is way too small for DJ and there is only 4 pins which doesn't glue to the five ten shoes like a true platform. I rode it on the flat side this morning and it simply doesn't come close.One pin felt off on the first ride on its own.And despite the warning that said the click out resistance is set at minimal at shipping, I actually had to do three full turns or more to loosen it to a comfortable level. And I have been riding clipless for close to 20 years.It does allow me to have only one pedal set on the bike instead of switching it around with the spd.The best part I guess is that it isn't expensive at all.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Rated 3 out of 5Â by elifmamak Wish it was more sturdy. I LOVED this dress on. It was the perfect length, beautiful color, extremely flattering, etc. It does need a slip, but I usually wear a slip with flowy dresses to prevent any mishaps. That being said, the dress is made of a very thin, gauzy material. It looks great, but just wasn't sturdy enough for me. Being an accident prone person, 150$ for a dress that would pull/rip in a couple wears wasn't worth it for me. But it is gorgeous and flattering! 7.16.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by mkiley Nena Tie Dye Gauze Dress Not a one-size fits all! I am 5'7 and the so-called "dress" comes right below my waist. I can't imagine this dress fitting the model who is 5'9. Picture is not accurate. This is a top, not a dress. Very nice material. Runs very short. 6.28.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Sophie0920 I really like it!! I was nervous to get this dress based on the reviews I was reading. The color is not as shown in the photo...more of the white being a "tea dyed color" and the orange being "deep and muted orange" but, the colors work together and are very pretty. I have no problem with the straps staying up. I'm 5"10, 138 lbs and small busted. This dress hits me in length like it does on the model and the fabric does not "wing out" and look huge when you move. It is a flattering fit. The dress is very see through and will need a slip underneath and for the price is unfortunate. I went to a tailor and had them make me a strapless slip so it wouldn't take away from the shoulder part. I can't wait to wear to a semi casual beach party in July!---it will be perfect! 6.7.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by TaniaM Great boho summer top! I love this top so much I bought both colors. Just wear a bando underneath as it is very sheer. Its great for the summer as a top with jeans, or as bathing suit cover up! 5.25.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by ElephantGirl Agree with other reviewers In theory, this dress is so cute... It looks very much as pictured, except the orange detail was slightly duller in person. The fabric is the thin gauze that is characteristic of Jen's Pirate Booty. I normally wear a size Medium and I was pleasantly surprised that it was long enough to be worn as a dress (although it is slightly sheer and would need something underneath) I tried it on with the front tucked into a pair of shorts as seen on the model and it was cute... until the straps fell down. Just as the other reviewers noted, the straps are just too wide to comfortably stay up. I tried pulling the dress down, but that didn't work. I found myself adjusting it every time I moved. This combined with how delicate the material is made it a no-go for me. I debated over sending it back because I love the idea of it, but unfortunately there are too many flaws to justify the price. I think it would work so much better if it came in sizes or had adjustable straps. 5.9.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by gabriella12 love, love, love This dress is more like a top...or a really cool beach cover up because it's very short...and I'm 5'4". The gauzy material is semi sheer and very cool looking. It is definitely a cream and not white color with orange. The straps stay up fine on me...no problem. It is one of my favorite FP pieces purchased so far....If you wear this.... you will get compliments galore....it's so unique...the tag inside says made in Mexico...original design...something out of the norm....very cool!!! LOVE IT!!!!! 5.8.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by sunflower76 So cute, but going back..... I loved the way this dress looked online, but I have to agree with the other review that the neck is just too awkward and big. I tried to see if I could pull it off, but the straps kept falling down and so I am sadly returning it. 4.19.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by hockey runs very large I wanted to love this, but it is not worth the money, as the fit is quite odd. the shoulder straps, which are not adjustable, do not stay up. this dress runs large. I am 5'3 and I tried belting around the hips and it looked cute but the sleeves would just hand off me. Maybe for someone taller with broad shoulders. 4.17.2013

Since 1989, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste (CCAGW) has examined roll call votes to help identify which members of Congress have defended taxpayer interests and which have backed down on their promises of fiscal responsibility. The ratings separate the praiseworthy from the profligate by evaluating important tax, spending, transparency, and accountability measures. CAGW applauds those members of Congress who stood up for taxpayers and ignored the temptations of satisfying local or special interests. However, those who supported a big-government agenda should be prepared to face the consequences for their spendthrift behavior.
CCAGW's 2013 Congressional Ratings, for the first session of the 113th Congress, scored 80 votes in the House of Representatives and 48 votes in the Senate. By comparison, in 2012, CCAGW rated 76 votes in the House and 58 votes in the Senate.CCAGW rates members on a 0 to 100% scale. Members are placed in the following categories: 0-19% Hostile; 20-39% Unfriendly; 40-59% Lukewarm; 60-79% Friendly; 80-99% Taxpayer Hero; and 100% Taxpayer Super Hero.

Moving Forward Membership Standards Release August 16, 2013
For 103 years, the Boy Scouts of America has been a part of the fabric of this nation, with a focus on working together to deliver the nation's foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training.
Upon approval of the membership standards resolution in May of this year, the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America began reviewing its policies and guidelines to help ensure a smooth transition to the new policy. With the combined leadership of volunteers and professionals, seven task forces have reviewed every aspect of the Scouting movement, including unit operations, finance and fundraising, camping and outdoor, youth and adult audiences, chartered and community organizations, and human resources. While the new policy does not go into effect until January 1, 2014, the National Council has released some additional details about the implementation of the new policy.
Of course, there is no way the BSA can answer every possible question that may arise. Ultimately, people in leadership positions must exercise good judgment, all the time asking the key question they have always asked: "What is in the best interest of the youth we serve?" We expect the release of much more information and training resources related to the membership standards change throughout the remainder of the year.
Fact vs. Fiction - This document is is meant to clearly explain the effect the new policy could have on local units and members and to answer frequently asked questions.
Implementation FAQ for Unit Leaders - This document is specifically for leaders and addresses unit operations questions associated with the membership standards implementation.
Special thanks to all of you, our leaders, for your continued service and dedication. You truly make a difference in young people's lives. We must continue to remain focused on our mission and serving the youth of our nation. Together, we can continue to impact more than 34,000 local youth by delivering amazing programs and the promise of Scouting to each of them and their families.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Muri Perfect I love this cardigan. It's the perfect sweater for a cool evening, the colors are super crazy and fun, it makes any outfit stand out, and it fits perfectly. I bought xs and it was al little bit tight on the armpits, but it is not a problem, and after a couple of hours it stretched and now it is perfect. 4.24.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Angelkins Lovely!.. This cardi is really cool I love it and I get tons of compliments on it. I'm 5'9 and curvy the length is nice and long arms a little snug but I have big arms so everything fits me like that, I bought the large. Only one downfall is it snags easy so if your wearing rings etc u have to be careful. It's very thin which is good for me so u can layer without boiling to death!! Would love to see FP come out with a similar style that was super super thick for fall winter!! 4.23.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cochranejm Love this sweater I am very pleased with this purchase. The colors are exceptional. It is a very flattering fit. I had it delivered to my work place and everyone at work thinks it is a hit! 4.13.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by LittleMissMolly Beautiful, But Delicate I bought this when it went on sale. I ordered both colors, and settled on the black multi colorway. I love the idea and colors, but it is definitely delicate. The threads snag easily, and I have many pulls after wearing it only twice. I'm going to get as much wear out of it as possible, but I have a feeling this one may fall apart quickly, unfortunately. The knit is very thin, so don't expect this to be a substantial layer, more of a light layer for when it's a little cool outside. 3.29.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by Uge :( I really like the style on the pictures. Unfortunately, what I received wasn't like that at all. The colors were ugly, and it looked cheap. I sent it back. Very disappointed... 3.23.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by blue9girl9 Fits great - built poorly I was going to buy this new, I loved the way it looked so much! As soon as I saw it was on sale, I went to the store to buy it. It fit me perfectly and I love the colors. I was, however, concerned about the flimsiness of it. After wearing it one time only, it got a hole in it right by the clasp. I have no idea how it happened. I'm going to try to patch it, but I don't think it will work. Disappointed! 3.19.2013
Rated 1 out of 5Â by phoenix29 Not impressed Looked and looked for this sweater after seeing it online. When I finally found it I was beyond disappointed. Thin knit made it look really cheap. Colors looked like what I used to wear when I was 5 or 6. Tried it on and looked nothing like I had hoped. Is not as loose as pictured if you have hips and a butt (even in the correct size). I even tried to size up and the fit was disastrous. Such a letdown. 3.17.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Beachinchick Color Spectrum Cardi So thrilled to get this. It is lightweight as other reviewers have stated, but that's what I love because that makes it perfect for all year either over sweaters and thermals in the winter or dresses and t-shirts in the spring or on cool summer nights. I wear a 6 and the small is a nice fit. I got the black multi and it matches almost everything in my closet. 3.9.2013

This unit introduces students to the concept of surveillance as a key and largely overlooked element of modern criminological theory, policy and practice. Surveillance is historically embedded within early criminological theory, but more recently has become a standard policy response that connects intelligence, new technology and rapid information flows to convey an appearance of an efficient and responsive justice system. However, critical surveillance theory also recognises the problems of focusing on technology alone given the broader expansion of 'governance through crime' in recent times. Contemporary surveillance policies intersect with many fields, including crime prevention, the management of dangerous spaces and people, the more routine forms of accountability impacting on police and other justice personnel, and the various domestic and international principles of individual rights to privacy. The centrality of these issues in interpreting current developments and driving future research, policy and practice across the justice sector is examined in the context of the growing impact of risk in the criminological landscape.

The Earned Income Tax Credit provides a much-needed financial helping hand for Americans who work hard to make ends meet. Millions of workers may qualify for this credit in 2012 due to changes in their marital, parental or financial status. President Ronald Reagan hailed the Earned Income Tax Credit as "the best anti-poverty, the best pro-family, the best job creation measure to come out of Congress." He was right. Last year it lifted 3.3 million children, and an equal number of adults, out of poverty.
The IRS has a wonderful diagnostic tool on its website www.irs.gov to assist persons who earned $50,270 or less in 2012 to see if they qualify. To get the credit, taxpayers need to file a return and specifically claim the Earned Income Tax Credit, even if they aren't required to file, since the Earned Income Tax Credit is a refundable tax credit.
Generally speaking, the more children a family has, the greater the credit and the maximum credit can be as much as $5891. Sadly, unscrupulous tax preparers have attempted to scam the government by inflating incomes in order to get larger credit amounts, which these preparers invariably keep. A family with three children that earned $6,000 in 2012 would receive $2,710 from the EIC. But if a tax preparer stated on their tax return that their income was $12,000, the EIC becomes $5,410.
If you employ individuals who cook, clean or take care of your children, don't overlook what have been referred to as "Nanny Taxes." In a word, if you paid a babysitter or other household service person more than $1,800 in 2012, or more than $1,000 in any quarter last year, you are a household employer and owe the tax, unless that babysitter, maid or cook is your parent, spouse, under-21 child or someone under age 18 whose principal occupation is not household employment; i.e., a student. You must withhold the employee's share of social security and Medicare taxes unless you choose to pay both the employee's share and the employer's share. The taxes are 15.3 percent of cash wages. Your share is 7.65 percent and the employee's share is 7.65 percent.
You may also be responsible for paying federal unemployment tax if you are a household employer, and this tax is not withheld from your employee's wages.
As a tax consultant, I get questions such as: "Why didn't my tax refund go up (or my taxes due go down) when I entered this such and such expense?" For example, I spoke with a gentlemen whose $8,000 gold watch was stolen in 2012, and when he entered that loss into his tax preparation software, his tax due amount did not go down, and he did not understand why. The reason is that casualty losses are only deductible as an itemized deduction if they are in excess of 10 percent of your adjusted gross income. This fellow had an AGI of well over $100,000, so he qualified for zero loss.
In a similar vein, employee business expenses are generally only deductible if they exceed 2 percent of your adjusted gross income, and you itemize. To illustrate, if I had an AGI of $60,000, the only business expenses that I may deduct on my Schedule A are those in excess of $1,200. The same treatment applies to medical expenses, since only those expenses in excess of 7.5 percent of your AGI are deductible on your Schedule A and only if you itemize. That number will go up to 10 percent in 2013.

A Coast Guard official says the cause of the engine-room fire on the Carnival cruise ship Triumph was a leak in a fuel oil return line.
In a teleconference Monday, Cmdr. Teresa Hatfield estimated that the investigation of the disabled ship would take six months.
She said the Bahamas is leading the investigation, with the Coast Guard and National Transportation Safety Board leading U.S. interests in the probe.
She said investigators have been with the ship since it arrived Thursday in Mobile, and interviews have been conducted with passengers and crew.
The ship left Galveston, Texas, on Feb. 7 for a four-day trip to Mexico. The fire paralyzed the ship Feb. 10, leaving it adrift in the Gulf of Mexico until tugboats towed it to Mobile.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif. - Cal State Northridge had two golfers named 2011-12 All-Big West Conference this week as junior Chris Russo earned first team honors for the men and junior Margo Dionisio was named honorable mention for the women's squad.
The 2011-12 Big West honor is the second for both players as Russo was named honorable mention in 2010-11 while Dionisio was also honored with honorable mention accolades following the 2009-10 season.
Russo, who's season will continue at the NCAA Regionals in Greenboro, NC on May 17-19, led the Matador men with a 72.5 stroke average during the regular season. He posted the first two tournament wins of his Northridge career this season taking home individual medalist honors at the St. Mary's Invitational (Sept. 13-14) and the Pat Hicks Thunderbird Invitational (Feb. 13-14). He was the Matadors' low player in 10 of 12 tournaments and finished with seven top-20 finishes including a ninth-place finish at the Big West Championship.
"Chris had a solid year for us and is certainly deserving of first team honors," said head coach Jim Bracken. "He posted two wins this season which is a great accomplishment. Chris is also a great leader on this team with a great work ethic. He is also supportive of his teammates and never puts himself above the team.
"With the core guys we have returning next year, along with the recruits we have coming in, the leadership of Chris and Matt (Siporin) will make our team competitive not only in the Big West but in the region as well."
Dionisio played in all 11 tournaments and 26 rounds for the Matadors this season compiling a 78.8 stroke average. The junior from Whittier, Calif., had a team-best three top-10 finishes highlighted by a fourth-place showing at the Big West Championship. Dionisio also was the low scorer in all three dual matches with CSU Bakersfield. Her three-year scoring average of 78.47 currently ranks third in Cal State Northridge women's golf history.
"It was great for Margo to finish in the top-five at conference," said head coach Bonnie Murphy. "It will certainly give her confidence heading into the amateur season this summer. I know she was disappointed with her spring season but she poured it on when she needed to and we're super proud of her. Margo will definitely be a key player for us next year and someone the younger players will look up to as we look to challenge for the Big West championship."

5% Avg. Alpha. Palisade hops are grown in the Yakima Valley of the Pacific Northwest by a family farm with generations of hop growing experience. The Palisades variety was bred from Swiss Tettnanger hops, and have a character similar to Willamette or Fuggles. They exhibit a refined and subtle flavor with an earthy herbal aroma that could also be described as grassy. A slight spicy character with hints of citrus or apricot makes some describe this hop as pretty. As mellow rather than overpowering hop the Palisades are a great hop for beers that strike a good balance between malt and hops and have a smooth drinkable character. Recommended substitute for Tettnanger, Willamette, Fuggle, Styrian Golding.

I would have to say Tilt to Live. It's just such a polished app with a great, simple idea for gameplay that I always come back to it, even two years later. I really have to congratulate One Man Left on making such a solid game. Long story as to how I found it, but once I decided to give it a try, I have never once regretted spending that $2.99 (which is a little steep for me). Still my favorite app.
What's the best iPhone app you ever bought?
During a recent iMore show, I was asked to name the best iPhone app I ever bought and it really made me stop and think. When you take free apps out of the equation, and you start to consider what gave you the most enjoyment or stress-relief, or provided the greatest value to your education or business, or made the time you spent with your loved ones, traveling or at home, just that much more special -- when you consider what gave you the most value for your money, it really can be hard to choose just one.
But that's what I'm asking you to do!
Whether it was a $0.99 app that distracted you at just the right time and made you smile when you needed it most, or a $1.99 app that helped you find what or where you absolutely had to find, a $2.99 or $3.99 app that keeps track of things so your already busy brain doesn't have to, or launches things in a way that saves you a ton of time, or a $4.99 app that saved you $$$ on your bills or taxes, or even a $19.99 or higher priced app that helps you get things done on a daily and yearly basis, I'm asking you to think back over all the amazing apps you've bought and share with the iMore community the one that's meant the most to you.
I know what my answer is now, and I'll share it on the next show... along with some of the best of yours!
So think about it and tell me -- what's the best -- paid! -- iPhone app you ever bought?
Have something to say about this story? Leave a comment! Need help with something else? Ask in our forums!

What's the best iPhone app you ever bought?
Air Video.
The first app I ever paid for without even giving it a second thought. It's made me never have to put any videos on my iDevice. I can easily stream any video on my computer, no matter the format, in superb quality anywhere in the house. If I'm out and about, it does a great job streaming from the net as well. It's great not having to think about what's on my iPad to watch while I'm in bed, I just need to know I have it digitally somewhere on my PC.
Ohhhh that's a good one.
Tough for me, honestly. Air Video's up there, as is Tweetie 2 when it came out... And there there's djay and GarageBand...
Jeez, I think Ill just go with carcassonne, the most beautiful game on iOS (with the best music!) and by far the best implementation of asynchronous 'with friends' style multiplayer. More strategy than chess, but you don't agonize over moves forever, it's quick.
I've stayed in touch with several friends over long distances via games of Carcassonne on the iPad, it's the only iOS game I still play every day 2.5 years after I bought it.
Kinda weird to pick a game because I don't use my iOS devices primarily for gaming at all, but I think it takes the cake.
My top fave paid app is HD 4cast2 weather for 99¢ I love weather apps, but this one is my fave because the icons in it are great looking:)
I'd have to say Downcast. Hands down the best podcast management I've encountered. On the gaming side, Ascension and its expansion packs have had extremely long legs for me, I've been constantly playing since December last year. So on both accounts money well spent.
Tweetbot. Hands down.
the best. I agree ! worth every penny
I second this, Reeder is by far hands-down the best RSS reader app for any mobile device. It's changed the way I use RSS since I bought it.
Of Apps I've paid for:
Reeder is the one I use the most. Daily! (and it's better on the iPhone than the iPad).
Scrabble is pretty great.
Star Walk is AMAZING. Better than a planetarium (in your pocket).
Photosynth is also AMAZING, but it's free so I'm not sure if it counts for this list?
Tweetbot for me.
csr racing
This is the best app i have its a racing game
upgrade my car and beat all the competition.
I didnt pay for it its free....
Calengoo. It was the only way I could create a functional master family calendar with a family that had one Android phone, two iPhones, one Windows phone, two google calendars and one Outlook Calendar.
I would have to say the Plex app. My roommate was irritated that I had my mac mini connected to the tv in the living room for some reason (she's odd). And I wasn't really getting the best use out of my personal computer anyways. So I bought the Apple TV to connect to our tv instead (of course she loves that it works with her music and iphone) and I can now push all my television shows and movies to the tv through Airplay, it works pretty flawlessly and I get to use my computer back in my room for personal stuff. The most I have ever paid for an app, but totally worth it.
I've bought very few apps. I'm still just using my 2nd gen iPod Touch. I mostly have free games/apps. But the best app I've paid for would be 1Password or Bento.
I really like Shazam but tried Sound Hound and fell in love with it. Amazing App and free I believe.
Traffic View from TrafficLand is the best app I've purchased thus far. The app displays near-real-time traffic video from many of the traffic cameras located along freeways and roadways.
When possible, I prefer to use the I-95 freeway in the Washington Metro area, instead of the back roads, to travel to my destinations. I-95 traffic is perhaps the worst in the nation. And the southbound afternoon traffic is regularly congested due to volume or slowdowns caused by rubberneckers gawking at an accident.
This app has helped me avoid some of the worst traffic congestion events on the MId-Atlantic's longest parking lot.
1Password. Hands down the best money I have ever spent. I feel that my important logins are more secure and have them on all my devices.
I would have to say that of all the apps I have purchased, the best and most used apps would have to be a tie between launch center pro, tweetbot, and pages for iOS. All of these apps help me multitask and keep things synchronized between all my devices.
That's tough...for everyday = Tweetbot. Trips = Navigon
Guitar Toolkit by Agile Partners. I lead worship at church and play live several times a week. I use this app almost every day to tune my guitar and bass guitar. It does so much more with metronome, scales, chords, and on and on. The tuner is more accurate than my 100 dollar Boss pedal. Best $9.99 I ever spent.
Speedlist. A little known iPhone app that has been both useful and a pleasure to use, and really well designed and thought out to do just what I want in a list-making/tracking app. Though it was hard not to choose 1password, which is really essential but doesn't give me warm feelings.
iCash Tracker. $.99 to help me keep track of every single expenditure out of my account. Haven't overdrawn my account since I bought it because I know exactly how much I have now!
so far, for me is Tweetbot. it's a very cool app that is worth the money. no issues, no lagging, no freeze ups. All smiles here! :-)
Oddly enough Springtomize; from allowing 5 icons/folders per line to changing the user agent. If you won't count jailbreak apps the Documents to Go gets the nod.
Mine is definitely the Tapatalk app because it allows me the opportunity to learn as much as I can about the devices I've owned and currently own as well as share that knowledge with other people. Having said that, if you had asked for a specific platform, I would have easily answered by naming Twitter, but I've used all sorts of Twitter apps from UberTwitter to Tweetbot, but since you're asking for a specific app, I have to go with Tapatalk.
I'm really loving Camera+. I even bought the inApp filter pack and have no buyers remorse. I'm by no means a photographer but I have been getting so many comment on my pics and have even used them with Postagram. Anywho, I have found a new love for photography thanks to the iPhone 4a and Camera+. :-D
Do I win something if I say the iMore app?
Tweetbot forever! I bought it for my iPad 3 and iPhone!
I have to say, I bought Camera+ the very first day it was available and have NEVER ONCE regretted that choice. That app is absolutely invaluable for me, and especially now with iCloud Photo Stream, the fact that it doesnt clutter up my camera roll (and thusly my photo stream) with pics, plus the touch exposure/autofocus controls are absolutely a godsend (and it even came in handy for me today when I was taking pics of bonsai trees at an exhibit on bonsai that I went to).
Star Walk. It never fails to fill me with the same sense of awe I got as a kid when I looked up at the sky.
I would definitely say iFiles, hands down. It's the ultimate file management app for iOS devices.
It has iCloud support for sharing files between devices, not to mention being able to add multiple accounts from Dropbox, Box.net, Google Docs, SkyDrive, SugarSync, WebDav, FTP, SFTP (SSH), Picasa, Flickr, etc.. and move files directly between each service.
I tried my best to narrow it down to one. Got to my top three. The loss of any one of these would put a real damper on my lust for my iphone.
Geocaching: I had previously heard of the Geocaching hobby, but it seemed like a lot of work and a lot of learning. Thanks to this app, I have discovered countless natural wonders all over New England. It provides endless free fun, anywhere in the world, anytime you like.
Navigon: I've utilized "alternative means" to thoroughly test every turn-by-turn system the iphone has to offer. I finally settled on Navigon and have purchased all of its in-app purchases. I would happily pay for it again ten times over. Every time a friend gets an iphone, the first thing I do is gift it to them. Oh, and once while Geocaching, it's offline map caching saved my life. Being lost in a New England forest in winter is no fun.
Air Video: This app... THIS APP! I won't ramble on about it, because everybody else already has. What an amazing bit of tech.
ForeFlight is the best app I have ever paied for. $75 a year makes it a little expansive, but worth it if your a pilot.
I'm a very detailed manager of my personal finances, and it still amazes me how powerful this app is for every question I have about my finances.
Second place would go to SnapSeed. That was the first time I ever thought that photoshop could eventually be possible on a mobile platform.
I have to agree! I bought the case mate case that holds my debit card and drivers license and iReconcile at the same time. The combination is unbeatable to me. Never carry a wallet or checkbook and always know how much money I have on hand. Plus the reports, if you use the app correctly, are great. The budget feature is great as well. Easy to use app, easy to set up, use it multiple times daily.
1) Downcast
2) Instapaper
3) Tweetbot
4) Dark Sky
5) Pages
The Best iOS App ever is "iFiles" - Its one of my first Apps I bought for FileManagement and having access to all my online cloud services like dropbox, box, sftp and more. You can surf the web and download stuff to your device, access it in iTunes or open a small web-server to access the files with a browser while you are in your local network.
Its probably the only app that survived since year one of the iPod Touch.
Most apps I own are free but among the apps that I paid for, Documents To Go is my favorite app. I bought it at $12.99 when there was a sale and it's been very useful. When I don't have my laptop, I use it to write a draft for essays or edit on the go. I also use it to view excel and PDF files which is very nice.
App Store apps: 1. Tweetbot 2. Camera + 3. Hours Keeper
Jailbreak apps: 1. Springtomize 2. Lockinfo 3. Zephyr
I would have to say an app called White Shark, marine biologist tag and release Great White Sharks with radio satellite beacons so they are able to track these sharks movements using GPS. Each Shark is given a name and we are able to map their comings and goings. The app lacks design style but the owner can see in real time where these sharks travel. I find it fascinating watching these creatures and looking at how they cover their territory.
hands down the best app that I have ever purchases for my iphone 4 and the app that I consider the most important can't live without app had to be purchased on cydia, not the app store. It is called "iblacklist". Android, blackberry and windows all allow call clocking apps in their respective app markets/stores, however, apple does not. This attitude that I have to buy the world's most elegant and elequent phone for quite a bit of money and pay for an expensive plan, I cannot us the phone the way I want to just simply has to stop on Apples part. I jailbroke the phone just for this app which allows me to block any caller from sending me a call or text and it is priceless, well worth twice the $9.95 in which i paid for it. Say I go car shopping at 4 different dealers and I choose one deal at one dealer, well what do you think is going to happen? 3 dealerships are going to be calling my phone wanting to know why I didn't buy a car from them - so I blacklist them - get the picture?
I haven't paid for many apps, but mSecure is one and it was totally worth it! I have all of my passwords in one secure location. This allows me to have more complex, secure passwords since I don't have to remember them myself. :-)
Bought a lot of great apps, but even tho $49.99, Auria for the iPad takes portable music studio to a new level. There are great DAW's in the app store, but this is a whole lot of ability is a small package. To have a 48 track studio mixer that is a high end product with a lot of thought put in, is amazing. Yes you have to have an audio interface, a power USB hub, and the Apple camera connection kit to make it work. But well worth it.
"iFiles" for sure.
I would have said Pocket Informant until recently. Beatiful app. Then work moved to Office 365/Outlook - and now PI is useless unless you want to run 2 calendars that don't sync.
My favourite now (was no2) is NAVV UK sat nav app. As slick as the big names at a bargain price (£7.99). Never let me down, but obviously that's the UK version so I can't comment on others. I would just say give it a try.
Agenda is a nice overlay on the calendar app well worth £0.69.
Firstly, this might not be the best app, but out of I think 343 apps I have, Tech Junkie I use the most....multiple times a day to keep up. I think of myself more as a app tester, because love to check out what people can do. The most impressive app that I get the most of, and that I am always surprised by how high the bar is raised would be GarageBand. It anyone knows others that sound so real, and diverse in instruments, I would love to hear about them!
The best $1.99 I spent for an app was for Week Cal (endar)...love the weekly layout and its perfect to display both my work events and kids' events!!
I use that app everyday to remind me to pay bills, cancel trial memberships or anything else I might forget. Its the best reminder app I've used mainly because it has a autosnooze feature which will keep reminding you of the task until you check it as completed. Money well spent.
for my first iphone I went and bought Antidote. I am an Anglophone living in Montréal and live and work in French and English. When I was learning French I struggled because I didn't get up and get my dictionary or verb guide, tooo lazy, but once I had Antidote it was so available that improved my French rapidly and easily. Now on the iphone4S and Antidote is still with my, in constant use three years later. Easily the most expensive app I have ever bought, at 20$ but the best purchase ever. Oh by the way I love Montréal.
A bit late to the party here, but my wanted to put my $.02 in. A list of my favorite iphone apps would be:
MLB At.Bat
Spotify (I didn't see it mentioned above, but I kinda skimmed through)
Bank of America
All in all, I would probably peg spotify as my favorite. I currently have 10GB of extreme quality music saved on my iphone that i listen to when I don't have a strong signal/wifi around or when I'm on a plane. Then another couple thousand tracks saved in various playlists I've created or subscribed to plus maybe a dozen radio stations I've "created" I'm listening to spotify in the car, while I'm working, at the gym or running around my neighborhood, laying in bed to fall asleep, playing with the kids, pretty much all the time.
As far as Jailbreak apps
my must have JB apps would be:
GV to SMS
Fully integrated and free text messaging via google voice on my iphone with the ability to text from anywhere in the os. <3
For iPad, my favapps would be more towards video
MLB At.bat
HBO go
Jailbreak iPad apps
various notification center tweaks
iFile + the camera connection kit is awesome. I have a 32 GB SD card loaded with TV shows and movies, I have to travel a good deal for work, so while I'm on the road I can carry a 16 GB iPad, fully loaded with apps, plus the 32GB SD card and have everythign I need to entertain myself while I'm sitting in a hotel room or a plane. Don't know what I did before it.
As a pediatrician, I have dozens of Apps on my phone to help me care for children. Most are free like Epocrates and the John Hopkins ABX Guide.
The most valuable paid program is one I have been using on my Palm Pilot since 2000ish. The Riley Kidometer (now just Kidometer) is a database of pediatric information searchable by age and sex. It is so indispensable that I've kept my old Palm alive for all these years just to keep using the Kidometer. The App is now available on the AppStore for $5. It is worth every penny and then some if you need the information!
(disclaimer: I have no financial ties to the Kidometer or the developers although I was a beta tester for the iOS App).
would this be a useful app for parents? Or is it overly technical or just inappropriate for that particular audience?
I'd have to say the best iPhone/iPodTouch app I ever bought is Bookmark. It's the only podcast listening app I know of that lets you bookmark as many times in any podcast as you need to. That way, I can concentrate on enjoying the podcast and be able to go back later and look into all of the bookmarks I made. You can even give them titles, if you want. And all of the audio podcasts that you subscribe to in iTunes and have checked off to sync to your iPhone will immediately and automatically show up in Bookmarks. Another huge feature they have is a completely unique "timeline" or way to skip forward or backward. And you can custom set the different increments for this. I use it quite often every day.
I also can't pick just one...
- a simple, but great text editor with dropbox support
Password management:
- not the best or prettiest UI of the bunch (on iOS), but I've been using this product for decades (back to pre-OSX days with Palm). It's about as full-featured as anything and available on about every platform imaginable (with sync). Once you've got it down, it is indispensable.
Task management:
Todo by Appigo
- I looked at a LOT of todo apps when I first got my iPod (and now iPad), and this was by far the best. I haven't done a recent comparison again, but it is quite full-featured, has a nice UI, and is easy to use.
Tech tool:
Remoter VNC and/or LogMeIn
- Simply excellent tools for remote control and ssh (in Remoter VNC)
- Has to be the best alternate browser, and WAY more full-featured than Safari.
I want a 32GB iPad 4 black to use at school :)
Great app that allows me to see the latest movies and photos of my Great Grandchild.
I can also share my movies, music and photos with everyone and myself while traveling

think my first loves were Midnight Mahjong (took full advantage of the touch screen, pinch and rotate), and i.TV I was in the car programming my Tivo from 200 miles away with a phone... if was awesome not to miss the game I forgot to record.
For me, absolutely is Time Master ( by On-Core Software ) I don't remember how much I paid for 1st Module but well worth every penny. Since than I have purchased 2 other module 1 for sync. from Iphone to Ipad ( $6.99 ) and 1 to invoice my customers ($ 9.99 ) best Time and material tracking program I have ever used. They also have a module you can export you T&M to Quickbooks. there is so much I could say but I'll just say if your looking for a GREAT T&M tracking program that is as customisable as any need out there. Check it out.
Wobble : )~
I would say SounHound which is really simmilar to Shazam which is free but I love soundhound it has been so many years with me and it help me remeber the cool songs I hear.
The second one would be TextGrabber, that helps me a lot everyday. I just snap a pic of a document and it transofms it into the text that i can share, edit keep. Really cool.
Magellan. Best GPS program around. I have 4 others

Chattanooga Head Coach Russ Huesman
Thoughts on the game
"We knew this would be a hard game going in, but I think our guys played hard, played well and we're awfully proud of them. We had some big standout performances. I think we came out in the second half and played pretty error free. We made some plays in the kicking game and on defense. It was a fantastic win for us against a team that is going to win a lot of games down the road in the Socon."
On getting key defensive stops
"Our stops were huge. We threw the one pick, but we still held them to a field goal. Then we fumbled the kickoff and held them to another field goal. That was a great defensive effort. I'm proud of our defense. I told A.J. Hampton and Muhasibi Wakeel what a great job they did out there. They were able to come in and play well for us."
Thoughts on Keon Williams
"I knew he was capable of doing this stuff. I just wanted to see if he could do it consistently week in and week out. I'm awfully proud of him. He's a load out there. He's a really good player."
Furman Head Coach Bruce Fowler
Thoughts on the game
"It was uphill all night, but we were fortunate to make some plays and get some turnovers. I think that kind of kept the game close in the first half, and I thought we came out battling at times defensively in the second half. Really, Chattanooga was in control of the game most of the time."
Bright spots for the Paladins in the game
"Marcus Anderson ran the ball hard and made some good cuts. He broke a lot of tackles and I am proud of his effort on defense. Then Carl Rider had a lot of production. Chattanooga just did a good job of running the football and controlled the game and ball."
Moving forward, Appalachian State next weekend
"We have to get back at it tomorrow. We have some areas we need to improve on and we're going to get back to doing that tomorrow."
Jacob Huesman, Quarterback, Sophomore
On dominating the first quarter
"We did play good in the first quarter. My personal turnovers in the second half killed us. I try never to turn the ball over but sometimes stuff happens. Luckily, we were able to overcome that in the second half, come back out and put more points on the board."
Thoughts on the running game
"The offensive line is still doing a great job when we run outside. They are doing a good job of getting to the perimeter, staying on blocks and getting to the second level. I sound like a broken record because I say it every week but they are doing a great job upfront. Also, the running backs are finding the holes and running hard."
On where the Mocs can improve
"Those three turnovers right in a row could have killed us. We could have shut it down and said we had to play tight because we couldn't turn the ball over again, but that leads to playing scared and we don't need to be doing that. Luckily, at halftime we were able to calm down a little bit, come back out and overcome those turnovers."
Toyvian Brand, Defensive End, Junior
Thoughts on the defensive line with Derrick Lott being out
"We definitely miss Derrick and his presence, but Danny Ring and Josh Freeman are doing a great job holding the inside down. Of course, we've got Davis Tull and I on the outside. We're pretty short on ends but we're trying to get it done. We are all working hard to reach all of our goals together."
On Davis Tull's presence
"I think other teams know how disruptive he can be on the field so they are going to gun for him. Like tonight, it opened for Josh Freeman and Danny Ring. They both got sacks, and I made a few plays off of that. Davis is a beast and people are going to gun for him."
Kadeem Wise, Defensive Back, Senior
Thoughts on breaking the losing streak to Furman
"Today in the team meeting was the first time that it was brought up. I think some of the guys knew it, but we didn't know how many years it was. We don't really let that affect us."
Thought on the latter part of the season
"We like to take it one week at a time. We are not going to look too far down the road. Each week in and each week out, we are going to practice for that game."

Embarking on a journey in search of acceptance, Astro Boy encounters many other colorful characters along the way. Through his adventures, he learns the joys and emotions of being human, and gains the strength to embrace his destiny.

Synopsis: Romantic-comedy regulars Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker finally unite in this fish-out-of-water laugher. The actors play Paul and Meryl Morgan, a Manhattan couple whose marriage is in danger. But it turns out all they may need is a change of scenery: when the Morgans witness a murder and are sent by the government to small-town Wyoming to hide from the killers, their marriage shows signs of recovery.

Synopsis: Raizo is one of the deadliest assassins in the world. Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed into a trained killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret society whose very existence is considered a myth. But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them…and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge. In Berlin, Europol agent Mika Coretti has stumbled upon a money trail linking several political murders to an underground network of untraceable assassins from the Far East. Defying the orders of her superior, Ryan Maslow, Mika digs into top secret agency files to learn the truth behind the murders. Her investigation makes her a target, and the Ozunu Clan sends a team of killers, led by the lethal Takeshi, to silence her forever. Raizo saves Mika from her attackers, but he knows that the Clan will not rest until they are both eliminated. Now, entangled in a deadly game of cat and mouse through the streets of Europe, Raizo and Mika must trust one another if they hope to survive…and finally bring down the elusive Ozunu Clan.

The Fourth Kind
Synopsis: In 1972, a scale of measurement was established for alien encounters. The final level, abduction, was classified as the fourth kind. This encounter has been the most difficult to document… until now. In modern-day Nome, Alaska, a disproportionate number of the population has been reported missing every year. Despite multiple FBI investigations of the region, the truth has never been discovered. Psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler began videotaping sessions with traumatized patients and unwittingly discovered some of the most disturbing evidence of alien abduction ever documented.
Cast: Milla Jovovich, Elias Koteas, Will Patton, Hakeen Kae Kazim; Directed by: Olatunde Osunsanmi

When Naveen, a handsome prince arrives in town looking for romance, the evil Dr. Facilier hatches a nefarious plot and turns Naveen into a frog. A kiss from Tiana should return him to his true form, but she is instead transformed into a frog herself! The pair must travel into the heart of the bayou to find the priestess who can reverse the curse in order to find their "happily ever after."

Comments about NIKE Tour Perforated Golf Cap:
I've worn this hat several times since purchasing it and I am extremely happy with it! It fits nice on a woman. I like how the back is adjustable and the strap is hidden (slides into a slot on the back of the hat) so the strap isn't flapping around since I had to make it much smaller than it came. The material is extremely light, breathable, and comfortable and it dried very fast making it great for running and playing golf. I highly recommend!

Real Housewives of New York
Ramona Singer's Family Gets Attacked by a Shark in Throwback Thursday Photo!
The Singer family — Ramona, Mario and Avery — got a little more than they bargained for during a vacation trip to Florida in this Throwback Thursday pic the Real Housewives of New York star posted on Twitter.
Avery, just thirteen at the time, found herself in the jaws of, well, Jaws himself as mommy and daddy hilariously tried to rescue her from a toothy grave. Aw it's all just in good clean fun of course, and the shark is totally fake, but their little show definitely made for one memorable shot!
The funny thing is, by our math (Avery's now eighteen) this had to have been taken about five years ago — so, around 2007 — when it was Ramona who would soon find herself navigating some shark-infested waters a la RHONY Season 1. Ba-zing!

Linguistik-Klassifikation: Grammatikforschung / Grammar research
- On the scope of the referential hierarchy in the typology of grammatical relations (2008)
- In the late seventies, Bernard Comrie was one of the first linguists to explore the effects of the referential hierarchy (RH) on the distribution of grammatical relations (GRs). The referential hierarchy is also known in the literature as the animacy, empathy or indexibability hierarchy and ranks speech act participants (i.e. first and second person) above third persons, animates above inanimates, or more topical referents above less topical referents. Depending on the language, the hierarchy is sometimes extended by analogy to rankings of possessors above possessees, singulars above plurals, or other notions. In his 1981 textbook, Comrie analyzed RH effects as explaining (a) differential case (or adposition) marking of transitive subject ("A") noun phrases in low RH positions (e.g. inanimate or third person) and of object ("P") noun phrases in high RH positions (e.g. animate or first or second person), and (b) hierarchical verb agreement coupled with a direct vs. inverse distinction, as in Algonquian (Comrie 1981: Chapter 6).

- love my new discovery Review by bob
- I purchased a Nicobella Truffles Assortment box as a gift because of the beautiful packaging & decided to add one in for myself.GREAT DECISION! I loved the rich creaminess of the dark chocolate & the burst of flavors in each unique truffle. It was only afterwards that I noticed the word "vegan."If the new description of "vegan" is delicious then count me in! (Posted on 10/29/12)
- Very interesting collection Review by Marcela
- It is more than 3 years ago when I found on the Internet the information about vegan Nicobella truffles. They looked wonderfully and at the same time, they did not include such ingredients like fondant, soy powder or puree that are often used in vegan truffles as substitute for cream and also the content of sugar was taken into account (that is not ordinary practice) and I was very excited that brown rice syrup was used in some truffles. It did sound like a dream! I ordered them and all truffles were delicious. Since then I have ordered Nicobella truffles regularly. Even if I have some favorite truffles I always order also Truffles Assortment box. It is very interesting how each truffle is different from others, from nutty and slightly crunchy walnut flaxseed crunch, through smooth and creamy sunflower butter banana, surprisingly intensively fruity flavored blueberry almond, spicy ginger green tea and pumpkin chai (but each very different) and finally smooth and mildly tasting pure cocoa bliss with wild accent of cocoa nibs. Really very interesting collection. And each truffle contains only 1g of sugar, amazing! (Posted on 10/28/12)
- Perfect Choice Review by Olivia
- The assortment box is the best way to get a taste of each delicious flavor (then you can decide which one is your favorite and order the Custom box!). These make perfect gifts for family, friends, teachers...and yourself! (Posted on 10/26/12)

Happy Friday, Bratzies! Yasmin here, and I was doing some reading on the President's Inauguration last month and the way cool dress Michelle Obama wore to the Inaugural Ball. I found out that she's the first Democratic First Lady to wear red to the Inaugural Ball in at LEAST a hundred years! I thought that totally fit her, though, because she's done a lot of firsts since her husband has been President. Did you know Michelle Obama planted the first vegetable garden in the White House in over sixty years?
Michelle Obama isn't the only First Lady with firsts. Did you know Hillary Clinton was the first First Lady with a postgraduate degree and her own office in the West Wing? Or that Laura Bush was the first non-president to deliver the weekly presidential radio address, and spoke on female equality across the globe? I think it's pretty awesome that these ladies worked just as hard as our Presidents to make a difference in not only the United States, but the world.
Have you ever done something that your friends or family had never done before you? Let's hear about your fabulous strides to set the bar higher, Real Bratz!
Happy Weekending!
