I love the canopy. It looks like it was made out of recycled water bottles.
Kind of like the Pope-mobile's canopy. Actually to me, it looked like the sneeze cover of a 1970s Vegas buffet.
Interesting that in the picture with the pilot the distortion of the background is profound, but not in the action picture. Also, what it flying that thing? A pair of disembodied headseat?
Probably is LOL
You can even see the reflection of the blue light on the tail from the original photo. Sad
So riddle me this... Its an "Iranian aircraft" right? With tons of Arabic writing all over the walls and crap. Then why are the placards along side the cockpit and the "Remove before flight" tag written in English? My little nephew could do a better job of photoshoping this thing lmao. What morons.
They don't write or speak the Arabic language in Iran. Their language is Persian (Farsi).
Hahaha doesn't change the fact that it's written in English...
That's for the propaganda effect - we American infidels don't read Farsi...
Obama gave it to them
My favorite part of this is how they said twice that "it's capable of flying at low altitudes." Duh, it's called taking off geniuses. The 1903 Wright Flyer was also capable of flying at low altitudes. I'm sure Israel is having a pretty good laugh at all this.
I think it's really the lighting on the top of the aircraft that gives it away as being 'shopped. It's the exact same pattern and intensity as the one in the hangar. That's not going to happen outside at altitude.
Not Photoshop, it just switched off its cloaking device!
WOW talk about not even trying to correct the lighting. Epic Fail Iranian losers.
WRONG HEADLINE. With a photoshop you can make a beautiful girl out of some ugly beetch but no expert can turn a fake plane into a real one FLYING (LOL!!!), these retards didn't show a video clip so it can NOT be said that it was spotted in the air as this wrong headline is claiming.
We've got more sophisticated looking computers in our cranes than that thing has in it's cockpit. Looks like a few toggle switches and plastic straws going into the back of it.
Amazing that it is airborne, and still attached to its stand.
Even though it's obviously a fake, it still looks pretty cool
Maybe it was designed to be flown by their space monkey?
Saddam Hussein was able to trick Bush and his cohorts into believeing that he had all kinds of WMD when all evidence pointed to the contrary. But these Iranian fools did not get anywhere with this "cartoon".
"....trick Bush and his cohorts..."
Yes and those cohorts included a majority of the democrats in Congress who voted for the invasion of Iraq! At least Congress, the people's representatives, had a say in that unlike Obama and his war in Libya that has since backfired causing the unnecessary loss of American lives. But where did all those chemical WMDs come from that have now been discovered in Syria which are of great concern to the Israelis given the missile launch platforms being sent from Iran to terrorist groups in Lebanon, a convoy of which was recently the target for destruction by the Israeli Air Force? I doubt Assad and his thugs produced them. Intel from a former Saddam Hussein loyalist military officer revealed to CIA debriefers some time ago that in the days leading up to the U.S. invasion of Iraq when Congress was debating the issue, multiple heavy lift air cargo flights were made to Syria from Iraq loaded with such materials and more. WMDs are not exclusively nuclear. Saddam tricked no one nor is Iran with this fake stealth fighter or their coordinated effort (Russian, North Korean, Pakastani and Chinese assistance) to not only produce nuke WMDs but biological and chemical WMDs as well. Arrogantly thumbing our noses at this perilous danger is no laughing matter and should be taken dead serious lest we "wake up dead!"
Of course Iran can't make a good stealth fighter. And neither can the US for that matter (check out the F35 debacle...).
F-35 is a well preforming aircraft, but they still have several major issues to fix with the pilot support systems. So far the rest of the aspects of the aircraft has worked, in non-combat roles.
you aren't getting it confused with the F22 are you?
'F' designation stands for FAKE, FRAUD, FUNNY, FLOP or maybe FAILURE....it looks a bit like that lame Soviet fighter Clint Eastwood stole in Foxfire/Foxfire (?) some 30 years ago...
Nah, the plane from "Firefox" actually looked cool. lol
It is a fake, some dumbass over there photoshopped it and made international news. Read the comments at the end of the story
Wow, you are smart enough to realize the exact same thing as everyone else, but not smart enough to read a single other comment before posting yours. You win the idiot of the day award.
Hmmm....can't PhotoShop remove glare from the original?
Photoshop FTW!
False headline. Iran released another publicity picture. Nobody else has actually seen this aircraft in the sky.
They can't even Photoshop, let alone build a decent fighter.
Hilarious, the same counrty that still flies 707's for passenger flights makes stealth technology state of the art fighter...
From flying boats, to 5th gen fighter in 2 years flat!!!
Yep, you can see the spot light ontop of the fuse located on the show room floor and bingo, it's still there over the snow fields :-)
Don't you just love them
"Photoshop: Eagle-eyed observers claim the Iranian jet was superimposed upon a generic picture of Mount Damavand"
How fucking eagle eyed would you need to be to see that the cloud formation is identical in both shots. What's the odds ?
Now you would think that the person altering this pic would have at least tried to alter the lighting reflections.Well if they can't work photoshop not much chance of them building a stealth fight haha.
I wonder if the technology advances they developed for this will transfer to their nuclear program. Next we will see them tape a M80 to a model rocket and call it an ICBM.
Is the production team of 'Thundrbirds' planning any remakes?
Divid Sims is right. I looked at the picture before feading comments, and saw that blue, green, and white light reflection lined up perfectly...
I disagree with the posters who say it was photoshopped. I think it more likely that a free open source tool such as GIMP was used. At least they didn't claim the peak was Mt. Ararat, INMNSHO.
All the lighting features of the original photo are present although some may be subdued but it is exactly the same image of the aircraft.
Neat what you can do with some plywood, glue and some paint. I love how the clouds are the same around the mountain in the "plane" pic and the generic pic.
Who cares?
It's not even a good Photoshop job.
The "inflight" photo is an obvious depiction because one doesn't fly at cruise with flaps extended as shown in the fly photo. But that doesn't mean the actual aircraft is a fake. We bad mouthed the Russian Mig-15 until we met it in combat. We din't bad mouth it anymore after that!
Unfortunately the people this is meant to impress know nothing about aircraft only need to believe that a Muslim nation can build technology like the west. Any infidel who says different is a devil. Could prove to be the most lethal fighter ever built.
If they like their aircraft to be displayed using Photoshop, perhaps some talented folks could pair it with King Kong or a kite tail and string etc.
Don't rule out the possibility that this thing is a red herring designed to attract attention away from something else they're doing in secret. The West, and the U.S. in particular, loves to denigrate its foes as bumbling boobs who couldn't make toast if they were starving, but those same foes have too often surprised the West. The Iranians aren't stupid people. This isn't their first indigenous design and while I agree that the mockup and the faked photos mean this particular aircraft is not real, it doesn't mean they're not working on something else in secret. Will it be a world-class fifth-generation fighter? Unlikely, but that doesn't mean they're incapable of developing their own aircraft. Igoring that fact, as the West usually does, is a mistake.
Indeed, the Iranians have managed to keep quite a few of their prerevolution-era Phantoms and even a couple Tomcats airworthy - sans parts and support - for over 30 years.
Excellent Point
I doubt this creation would classify as a 1st gen anything let alone a 5th.
Good point. How is progress on their nuclear program? I'm fairly certain they are not starving funding of that program for their gen-x mock fighter.
If you believe they can build a supersonic plane, well I have some property in Florida, beach front of course, that I want to talk you about (LOL!!!)
Didn't they just put a monkey in space last month? That's about a 30 year gap in history compared to the U.S......just saying.
The U.S. put a monkey in space in 1983?
Actually the U.S. launched the first monkey June 14, 1949 and numerous others in the 50's and 60's.
1948-1961 with one flight in 1969 and one in 1985
His call sign was "Iceman." And they didn't actually release the film until 1986.
All Iran has to do is fly it in France this year....
Sour grapes! The West is so arrogant they think that only they have the tech know how! First it was amock up now it's phony photo. They did the same to Pre-WWII Germany. People like that aren't "sceptics".They are stupid!
You are stupid for equalizing German tech with these bozos who can only make carpets that can't even fly (LOL!!!)
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is that you. I didn't relieze you followed Flight Aware.
Skeptic, not sceptic, moron. Sounds like the pot calling the kettle stupid.
I think he was right about using septic, Iran is after all the cesspool of the middle east
Comparing the two photos, it looks like they had the same cloud formations on two separate occasions. Global warming?
To the obvious; every shadow and every reflective light from within the show room is exactly the same as the ones in flight. Which we all know is impossible to have happen.
Nice try guys. Get a better photoshop user.

Fairtrade flower producers hope for renewed sales as flights to Europe resume
Fairtrade producers of flower and fresh produce breathe a collective sigh of relief as flight restrictions to and from Europe are gradually lifted. The European ban on flights due to the erupting Icelandic volcano had put a hold on virtually all of their sales into Europe. Farms had to destroy many tonnes of market-ready goods which perished before they could be exported.
No Fairtrade certified farm has reported layoffs of workers. The farm management managed the situation by encouraging workers to take up early paid leave, clearing any pending off days and redeploying workers to other sections/departments.
Fairtrade producers are hopeful that they will soon be exporting at full capacity. Fairtrade Labelling Organizations International urges consumers show their support by purchasing Fairtrade flowers.

NAMI Faces
"Persons living with mental illness can and do recover!"
My name is Ramiro Guevara. I have been asked to share a subject that is so close to my heart -- the path to mental illness recovery. NAMI has been very supportive and an integral part of this journey.
Before I share my story, I want to be certain of three things. First, I hope that you will view my self-revelation as a beacon of hope -- that absolutely no one is too far-gone, or too sick to be reclaimed. There is no such thing as a throwaway person. Mental illness does not encapsulate who we are or what we could be.
Secondly, I want to make sure you do not take away the impression that families cause mental illness. My story and the dysfunction that I experienced in my family, resulted from years of undiagnosed mental illness, alcoholism and drug abuse, and the failure of a mental health system, as President Bush's New Freedom Commission reports.
Thirdly, I do not want to leave you with the idea that people living with mental illness are violent. The fact is most persons suffering from mental illness are more afraid of you and are more likely to be victims of violence then perpetrators.
You see, we need to do more to educate the public about mental illness. One out of 5 people in the United States will experience a diagnosable episode of mental illness in their lifetime. Most will never seek treatment because of the fear and stigma associated with mental illness.
Now, here is my story…
I was born in Houston in 1971. My mother was 16. She had been living with mental illness and had been a victim of unspeakable abuse at the hands of my grandfather. My grandfather was an active alcoholic and abused his children. In fact, through family members' stories, I am convinced that mental illness has run through my family for several generations.
With the shame of being an unwed mother, my mother tried to abort me. Unsuccessful, I was in ICU for six months and my mother was told to make funeral arrangements. There was no baby shower, no parties, no cigars. But, the moment my mother laid eyes on me she said, "You were the first thing I ever really loved." She went on to explain, "I told God I was sorry and begged that you would live!"
Growing up was extremely frightening. My mother had a breakdown when I was two and soon afterwards, she began to drink, I believe to self medicate. It was a usual sight for me to find my mother drunk, her hands tied because she would get violent. I remember crying myself to sleep with the feeling of loneliness, and with an emptiness that engulfed me.
Never knowing my father, my father figures were older uncles. I remember one family member teaching me how to stab someone and how to kill them. I was beaten, abused physically, emotionally, and sexually. I was hanged. I watched someone being murdered. And one close uncle, right before my eyes, made a suicide attempt-dousing himself with gasoline and lighting himself on fire. I was a witness to all this before the age of ten!
School was a nightmare. I was very poor and it showed. In second grade my family was told that I was developmentally disabled and they held me back. I was put in special education and made to ride the "special" little bus. I internalized all the more, "You are really different and you will never fit in!"
In junior high, I found what I thought was the solution -- drugs and alcohol. They made the depression and loneliness go away. I could forget how different I was and nothing mattered.
What I remember most about this time of my life was extreme emotional pain. I remember waking up on many times thinking, "Another day, I wish I had died in my sleep."
Many of my teenage years involved street gangs, and self-loathing that increased to a point where I stopped caring if I lived or died. I actually wanted the rival gangs to kill me.
When I was 15, I tried suicide a second time. This time I had taken a bottle of an unknown medication and called someone I hardly knew. I simply wanted her to tell everyone that I was tired and it was no one's fault. But, she called 911, leading to my first stay in a mental health facility. They arrested me, cuffed me, and took me to the hospital.
I became a ward of the court. We at NAMI call this the criminalization of the mentally ill. I was sentenced to ten years and nine months. During all this time, no one offered me any mental health help unless there was a crisis situation!
When I was released at 18, I had a "break" that lasted about a year. I was hopeless, helpless and had lost faith in everything. Hanging out, waiting to die -- either by my own hand or someone else's. I really was a dead man walking.
A new chapter in my life started… [read part 2]

Q. How do I know if I have a claim for Agent Orange?
A. Many Vietnam War veterans are concerned that they have been exposed to Agent Orange, the chemical herbicide used to destroy jungle foliage in order to expose enemy troops. Public Law 107-103 provides a presumption of exposure to herbicides for all veterans who served in Vietnam during the Vietnam era. You do not have to prove you were sprayed or in an area that was sprayed if you served in Vietnam from Jan. 9, 1962, to May 7, 1975. However, before you begin to file a claim, you must have proof of service in Vietnam during the war time and medical documentation of the condition(s) officially recognized by VA.
The following is a list of diseases that VA recognizes as related to Agent Orange exposure:
Learn more about the diseases: www.publichealth.va.gov/exposures/agentorange/diseases.asp
Vietnam veterans who were exposed to Agent Orange may be eligible for an Agent Orange registry health exam, health care benefits and disability compensation. Contact your local American Legion accredited service officer to discuss possible benefits and file a claim: www.legion.org/serviceofficers

This is just what what I was looking for to carry wallet-sized pictures in my purse. The wallet I have doesn't have much room for the plastic sleeve holder. This little album is of good quality. I wish it would've come in less subdued colors, like a bright pink or light blue, but the quality is good and it does the job so nothing to complain about.

Station operators safely took Exelon Nuclear's Quad Cities Generating Station Unit 2 off-line for a scheduled refueling and maintenance outage shortly after midnight this morning.
Cordova, Illinois – Station operators safely took Exelon Nuclear's Quad Cities Generating Station Unit 2 off-line for a scheduled refueling and maintenance outage shortly after midnight this morning.
During the outage, workers will perform approximately 13,000 extensive inspections and tests on a wide range of components and equipment in addition to refueling the reactor. This work includes the replacement of all three low-pressure turbines and casings. Many of the activities performed during the outage cannot be done while the unit is operating. All the work is designed to ensure the unit's safe and reliable production of electricity through its operating cycle.
During this outage, nearly 2,100 skilled workers from other Exelon sites, local union halls, and numerous communities and other states will be in the area, which provides a temporary benefit for the local economy.
Quad Cities Unit 1 will continue to generate electricity while Unit 2 is off-line. Quad Cities Generating Station is located approximately 125 miles west of Chicago. With both units at full power, the site can produce enough electricity for more than 1 million homes.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Great visibility and soft snow made for excellent conditions on the slopestyle course today in Tignes, France. Eight finalists had three runs to impress the judging panel on three jumps and three jib sections. Competing against the best freeskiers on the planet, Jossi Wells got the second highest score of the day behind McRae Williams, while Gus Kenworthy rounded off the podium; easily the best results of their season.
An unfortunate twist of fate for one can be a great opportunity for another. Andreas Håtveit unluckily tweaked his neck during practice two days ago and was unable to compete during qualifiers. As first alternate Jossi Wells was given the opportunity to compete and blew everyone away with a fantastic run, qualifying in first, while his teammate Gus Kenworthy qualified in 3rd. The pressure mounted in the final as both Jossi and Gus bobbled on their first two runs during and had to lay it all down on their final run through the slopes course. They did just that, both of them laid down the best slopestyle runs they have ever landed.
Sitting in last place, Gus dropped in with focus written on his face, in the tight and technical rail
section he started off with a switch left 270 on pretzel 450 off the high rail, a 270 on to flat rail to right 270 on 270 off the down box, flowing into the jumps he sent a big switch left double 900 japan, followed by a left double cork 1260 true tail to switch right double rodeo 1080 japan and on the last jib feature he stomped a switch right 270 on pretzel 450 out. It was truly one of the most technical runs possible on that slopestyle course and scored Gus a 92.00 just 2.3 points behind McRae Williams.
Jossi Wells was the last competitor to drop and came out with guns blazing launching a massive
switch 630 disaster on the flat down rail, a switch 270 on 270 off the flat rail followed by a smooth
switch double cork 900 safety, a left double cork 1260 mute, a text book switch right double 1080
safety on the jumps, and rounded things off with a switch on blind 270 off to 270 on 270 off the last jib features. His great mix of creativity, style and technicality was awarded a 93.00, pushing Gus off second place and giving Jossi the best slopestyle result of his career. "I couldn't be happier right now" exclaimed an exulted Jossi "I have wanted to land that run for years and to do it now, here at X Games, is a dream come true. Gus also killed it, and to stand on the podium with him is an honor!" Congratulations to both, truly the success of the season.

McCabe & Mrs. Miller
1971. USA. Robert Altman. 121 min.
Wednesday, May 21, 2014, 1:30 p.m.
Theater 3 (The Celeste Bartos Theater), mezzanine, The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Education and Research Building
McCabe & Mrs. Miller
1971. USA. Directed by Robert Altman. With Warren Beatty, Julie Christie, Rene Auberjonois, Keith Carradine, Shelley Duvall. In a sense a revisionist Western, Altman's film (like almost all of his works) is so idiosyncratic as to defy genre classification. In direct contrast to the romantic vision of Peter Bogdanovich in his The Last Picture Show, Altman is hell-bent on demythologizing America and its cinema. Beatty, by this time, was about the biggest star in Hollywood, and Altman emerges from the pack of independent filmmakers following the passing of the studio system. 121 min.

Jo says
I've been craving mexican food ~ these look and sound delishous! I am making these Friday night when our neighbors come over. Thanks for sharing.
Anonymous says
I made these last night and they were SO delicious! Thanks for sharing:)
Anonymous says
So good…my new go to enchilada recipe!
Wynnebaer says
Made this last night and it was very good. We like a bit more spice though so maybe next time I'll add some salsa to the chicken mixture to kick it up some.
Jolie says
Making these tonight… they look exactly like what my neighbor made us the other night! Yum!
momof3darlings says
Made these tonight, and might I say. LOVEEEEEEEEE! OK, I seriously HATE to cook, but having 6 kids (3 of our own, and 3 foster "hoping" to be our own), I have to do that every once in a while. This recipe was a HIT! The only thing I added was finely chopped fresh spinach to the sauce to sneak in some veggies. ALL the kids ate it and LOVED it!
THANK YOU!!!!! I love you all. Seriously, totally in love with your site!
Zero's human says
i've been wanting to make these since I first saw the recipe. The baking dish is in the oven now!
Jolie says
So they were amazing….five of my friends asked for this recipe and they all loved it!
Sara says
These were delicious! I'm vegetarian so for the chicken broth I used a couple teaspoons of McKay's chicken seasoning added to 2 cups of water, and refried beans instead of chicken for the filling. They turned out great! Will definitely make again.
Kat @ The Polka-Dotted Turtle says
I love these! My sister and I have both made them more than once and they were a hit! Thank you for sharing. I linked your recipe to my blog. You guys are great.
Michelle Edwards says
i'm making these tonight for the first time. i will post again once i've made them and we've tried them. i'm sure they'll be amazing !!
C says
These are in the oven right now, they smell SO good. I used your Cafe Rio shredded chicken recipe so I've been drooling over the scent of the chicken in the crock pot for a while now.
tgmommy says
super yummy! and so easy! had some left over shredded crockpot chicken in freezer—- thanks for the "different" enchilada recipe
Heidi Andrade says
I love chicken enchiladas with Verde sauce too, but I substitute corn tortillas for the flour. Flour tortillas tend to get gluey when covered with the sauce, which the corn do not.
CheBebe says
Does this store well in the freezer if I make extra?
Catherine says
CheBebe, I freeze these all the time. Make up a batch and put them in zippered freezer bags. When you're ready to prepare them, just put them in a dish, cover them with the sauce and bake them up!
Catherine says
Been making these for years, only thing I do different is add sauteed onions to the chicken and cheese mix…so easy and so delicious! First saw this recipe in one of my (many) USAF Squadron cookbooks from 25 years ago…hubby still asks for it!
SherlockVeteran says
Hi! Found this recipe through Pinterest. Made it for my dinner and it was graced with Mmms and was said to be good! Thanks for such an easy recipe!
Lynn says
I totally love this recipe but the only thing I change is the sour cream….I use plain Greek yogurt….a little less calories!
Marjorie says
My husband and I made it for dinner tonight. Easy preparation.
He emphatically said "Don't lose this recipe, I want you to make it again!"
My adult son asked if he could take the leftovers to work tomorrow.
Esther says
I made these 2 weeks ago and because my husband absolutely loved them, I'm making them again today!! The only thing that I did different was that I put a can of corn inside the chicken mixture and verde sauce because I had no green chiles and I put the chili powder inside the sour cream mixture by accident. With that being said I will continue to make them the same way I did the last time. I also made a side of guacamole with this. The next day these tasted even more amazing. This is one of the greatest recipes of all time! Love it! <3 Thank you for sharing. =)
JO says
We LOVE these – these are my Hubby's fav enchilada recipe. We've made them for guests for dinner as well, and they're always a huge hit. So good and SO easy!
To make them a bit more filling, we always add a can of black beans and a can of corn to the chicken mixture, as well as a packet of taco seasoning and a squeeze of lime before filling the enchiladas.
I also add a squeeze of lime and use fresh cilantro for the sauce.
Super easy to adjust to make more to feed a large crowd, or less if it's just for Hubby and I.

Every Tablet Worth Knowing About
Apple's iPad is here busily redefining the whole mobile PC market by making touchscreen-only tablet PCs cool, hip and user-friendly. It was long-awaited, and hotly-rumored before it arrived earlier in 2010. But oddly enough, despite all that warm up, it hasn't had any real rivals arrive in the intervening months. Until now that is: An army of iPad competitors, clones, family members and bare-faced copies are about to march into battle. We took a stroll among 'em, and picked the best, most interesting or just the weirdest to show you.

Dr. David Q. Segars's Ratings
I found Dr. David Segars through this site. I had never found my own doctor before so the process was a bit daunting. I decided to trust the rating here, and I'm glad I did. David Segars is a knowledgable, kind and competent doctor. His front office staff are nice and cordial. It doesn't take forever to make an appointment with him. He's punctual and he's willing to listen. If you are looking for a general physician, I'd recommend seeing Dr. Segars. I know I'm just a stranger on a website...but I trusted these reviews and made the leap and I'm glad I did. Thank you to those people before me who took the time to write up a review, because without you guys I wouldn't have even known about Dr. Segars. Take care everybody, and I hope this finds you all well!

I have been with Dr David Segars for 11 years. He's a good listener and very easy to work with. Depending on urgency, appointments are fairly easy to get. Also, he readily authorizes appointments with specialists as needed.

If you're looking for easy ways to improve your computing experience, one item that belongs near the top of any list is a second monitor. When you hook two monitors up to a computer, an interesting thing happens.
Suddenly you'll spend a lot less time flipping through open files, programs, and e‑mails, hunting for what you want. With all of that screen real estate spread out before you, you'll soon realize how much time you used to waste switching windows and looking for things. You'll then ask yourself, "How did I ever get by with just one monitor?"
Everyone I've met who has tried "going dual screen" with two monitors can't imagine going back to one screen. Some people think it's extravagant to buy a pair of monitors for one computer, but if it's been awhile since you've checked prices on flat-panel monitors, you might be surprised how affordable they've become.
My wife didn't want me to buy her a second monitor until she learned it would cost less than $200 to add a second 22-inch flat-panel monitor to her new computer. Then she thought a second monitor was something she'd rarely use. I encouraged her to give it a try. Now I see her using both monitors all the time, keeping an eye on her e‑mail on one screen, while she works on a document or checks a website on the other screen.
As a writer, I often keep two documents open on different monitors, copying information between them or checking a website on one monitor while writing on the other. I'm so used to this that it slows me way down now to use a PC with just one monitor.
How you use two monitors depends on what you do with your PC and how you like to work. The most common use I see here at Microsoft is people who keep their e‑mail open on one monitor, while they work on documents or files on another monitor. I also see a lot of programmers who rotate one widescreen monitor vertical so they can see as much code as possible at one time without scrolling, while they keep their other monitor in the normal horizontal position to work on e‑mail and everything else.
The possibilities are almost endless. Here are just a few ways to use two monitors:
View a different document or spreadsheet on each monitor. Refer to one while you're working on the other or drag information between them.
Look up information in a web browser on one monitor while composing an e‑mail message or document on the other.
Edit photos or videos on one monitor, while you keep a folder of your photos or video clips open on the other.
Some programs are designed to spread their menus over a second monitor if you have one. These tend to be programs with a lot of options and controls that are easier to use with more screen space, such as photo-editing or video-editing software. Some photo programs, for example, let you put the editing controls on one monitor, while you view the photo at full-screen size on the other monitor.
A dual-monitor setup doesn't just make you more productive and efficient at work. It can also help you have more fun. For example, you might keep your music collection open on one monitor, while you surf the web on the other. Or play a game on one monitor, while you check your e‑mail or send instant messages to your friends on the other.
Many games let you take advantage of two or even three monitors. One of the coolest uses for this is in games where you can use your center monitor as the front window of your race car or plane, with monitors on either side acting as your side windows.
Some people wonder if it's better to use one really big monitor—a 24-inch or larger flat-panel monitor—or two smaller monitors. This comes down to cost, personal preference, and how you use your monitors. For most people, two smaller monitors are a better choice than one large monitor.
If you work with giant spreadsheets, you might prefer one large monitor that can display more rows and columns at once. Professional photographers also love huge monitors for their ability to display photos as large as possible. Most people don't want to view a spreadsheet or a photo split in half between two monitors.
If I could afford a 30-inch behemoth, I might just use that single vast display. Instead I use a pair of 22-inch monitors because they're a lot less expensive and still provide me with a big desktop workspace.
Be careful what monitors you pair. I tried using one 22-inch monitor with a 23-inch monitor of slightly higher resolution. The minor differences in size and resolution annoyed me so much after awhile that I returned the 23-inch monitor and went back to using two identical 22-inch monitors. I prefer to have everything appear exactly the same size on both monitors. You might not care, but this is something to consider when you pick your monitors.
Some people think it must be hard to connect two monitors and get them both working properly. It's not if you have the correct type of video card in a PC running Windows 7. Most desktop PCs today come with a video card with two DVI video ports, and most flat-panel monitors sold today have a matching DVI port. Some video cards and monitors also have a VGA port.
If you have a video card with two ports, you can usually just plug two monitors into the matching ports. Look on the back of your desktop PC for the video ports, and match the cable from each monitor to the corresponding port. These ports connect directly to your video card.
You might need an adapter to plug a DVI cable into a VGA port or vice versa. These inexpensive adapters are easy to find and often come with a new computer or video card.
In the unlikely event that your desktop PC only has only one video port, consider replacing the video card with a new card with two DVI ports. (A new video card is one of the best hardware upgrades you can make for most PCs, so you're likely to gain more than just another port—especially if your PC came with integrated graphics, which are usually inferior to a dedicated video card.)
Even if your computer has only one video port, some PC makers include custom monitor cables that split the signal from one port to two monitors. So you might not need two ports on your video card after all.
Because every laptop comes with an integrated screen, you only have to connect one monitor to create a dual screen. That's easy because most laptops have a video port. (Unlike desktop PCs, two video ports are rare on a laptop.) Just plug a monitor into the DVI or VGA port and Windows 7 will automatically detect the monitor. As explained above, you might need an adapter to plug a DVI cable into a VGA port or vice versa.
I plug a monitor into my laptop when I'm at my desk and unplug it when I take my laptop on the go. You don't have to change any settings in Windows when you do this.
When you plug two monitors into a desktop PC or one monitor into a laptop, Windows 7 should automatically detect each new monitor and provide you with multiple display options. You can choose to:
Extend your displays. This spreads your desktop over both monitors and lets you drag items between the two screens. This is how most people use two monitors, and it's the default setting.
Duplicate your displays. This displays the same desktop on both monitors. For a laptop, this is the default setting. This is useful if you're giving a presentation with your laptop connected to a projector or large monitor.
Show your desktop on only one monitor. This is most commonly used with a laptop if you might want to keep your laptop screen blank after you connect to a large desktop monitor.
Now you know how to connect two monitors to your PC, so you can start working more efficiently and start having more fun with your computer. No matter how much you read about using two monitors, this is something you have to see for yourself. So grab an extra monitor and plug it in.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate Reporter
It was "ready, set, whoops" during Tuesday's opening day of the prescribed burn near Bruin Point in east Carbon County. But by Wednesday, the glitch was fixed and the expected inferno blossomed.
On both days, the procedure was textbook-perfect. Equipment and personnel deployed exactly as planned, the weather and plant conditions favored the fire. A small test burn set off by a ground crew confirmed that the "go" decision was right.
But organic chemistry got in the way on day one.
The napalm-like fuel that was supposed to touch off an inferno by helicopter bombardment on the main blaze was not working as planned. This fire starter ought to have a consistency "like snot," in the words of one veteran crew chief. Blobs of burning gel should coat branches leaves to get the fire going.
However, the fuel was too thin. The gasoline was chemically oxygenated, which prevented the thickening agent from congealing the mixture. As a result, much of the fiery stream dropped by the chopper disintegrated into tiny droplets in mid-air, completely burning before reaching the trees.
A few spots in the 140-acre burn area erupted in flames, but those isolated fires went out quickly because there was not enough surrounding fire to provide heat for a full-scale blaze.
A support crew that custom-mixes the ignition fluid on site was not able to overcome the problem with the critical fuel ingredient.
At about 2 p.m., Steve Rutter, northeast area fire management officer for the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands, called it off for the day. The break would provide time for a replacement fuel truck with unoxygenated gas to negotiate the steep, winding road to the summit for a replay on Wednesday.
It worked. The smoke plume was visible for many miles around.
Rutter had compiled an impressively thick document for the prescription fire, and as Fire Boss had assembled a multi-agency crew of veterans and trainees to assure that the fire did not get out of bounds. Although the plan calls for a total burn of about 1,000 acres, it will take place in designated patches of 100 to 400 acres over several days to make it easier to patrol burned-out areas nightly to watch for unexpected flare-ups.
The fire is intended to remove subalpine fir in the burn area, allowing aspen to move in and improve game habitat. Its other purpose is to remove combustible dead or dying plant matter to prevent major forest fires later.

Haha! Brasilia 2.0!
They need to put the Saab 2000 back into production!
We've been wondering what ever happened to Mesaba's Saab 340s, well there is one of them right in the picture. They even kept the old XJ tail number. They were still good birds, it was sad to see them go.
Flew on them as a pax between KFSM and KMEM when Mesaba had them as NWA. Definitely not my favorite over a CRJ. It will be interesting to see what new technolgy does for noise and vibration. AA for awhile was running an ATR of some type on one of their daily flights between KDFW and KFSM. Flight time was about 1/2 hr longer each way than an RJ. Don't know if the trade off in flying time compensated for less fuel or not, but me, like a lot of other folks just got accustomed to the RJ's. Again, no doubt they are cheaper by the hour to operate and they may mean the difference in a city having service or not but the extra time has to be looked at rather than just straight fuel saving.
Preacher, those AA ATRs you used to fly are now being flown by my company for Fedex as "feeder" aircraft on the shorter runs. After a few teething problems, mostly having to do with the conversion to cargo, and issues with being parked for a long time, they've done well. They're reliable and relatively economical to operate, and, considering they are, for the most part, about 25 years old, they are surprisingly modern. The new ATRs use the latest in technology to make them even more so, and the Q400s have already developed and enviable reputation for their performance. I think we'll be seeing a lot more props in the future, and fewer and fewr RJs.
10-4, yeah I am tpyed in them as well but there is a lot of room for improvment, particularly for the pax. As I said earlier, the business end of anything don't make much difference as you are occupied but the back end leaves a lot to be desired
nice to see the return of the props
Im with you, Love the sound of Turboprops.
Q400, fast, powerful, and there's just something cool about the look and sound of those big 13ft props.
I heard a q400 pilot say they have to derate the engines for take off. Wow.
The future is in turbo-prop aircraft like the Dash 8-400. With seating for 70+ passengers and jet like speeds,this turbo-prop is both fuel efficient and comfortable for both short and medium stage length flights. The aircraft also has the ability to get into and out of runways less thasn 5000 feet long, making a win for many small communities.
I miss seeing the b-1900s
Do these amazingly high fuel prices effect the amount of money the CEO makes each year?
All T-P's I have flown have been older DH-8's..
I hate them. The interior of the cabin stinks from fumes, the climate control is inadequate and the cabin noise is unbearable.
Other than that, they're great!
I would have no issue flying in a T-P absent of the above attributes.
While in the USAF in the sixties, I flew (read: Rode) in many C130s. In and out of small airports was a breeze and the ride was smooth at most altitudes. The noise wasn't dampened at all in military cargo aircraft, but I have no doubt it could be insulated adequately. Is the C17 more fuel/load efficient?
Yeah, you knew you were in for something when the loadie met you at the door with a set of ear plugs. Even the new models, as they fly low altitude over the house daily out of LRAFB on training, can be heard coming log before they pass over.lol
They certainly have their own noise signature. My favorite is still an old radial or two or four.
When they come over you can almost feel it in your chest and they have their own unique sound.
That, my friend, is an UNDERSTATEMENT.lol
While deployed to Iraq in 08-09, I flew on C-130s twice into and out of Ali Al Salem Airbase, Kuwait. It is somewhat noisy, and disposable earplugs are distributed by the flight crew to those who did not have their own. For short hops in a full aircraft (we sat in the web seats, with a knee of the person across from you between your knees) it is not too bad. More than that and it becomes awful. I will never forget the smell of JP-8, hydraulic fluid, and human perspiration all mixed together. NOT a happy memory.
During my deployment to Afghanistan ('11-'12), I rode in C-17s. The noise level is a lot lower than the C-130, and the seating is better. The pallet-mounted seats are comparable to commercial coach seats, except that the pallet will shift forward and back during the flight. The seats on the sides of the aircraft are more comfortable, have adjustable headrests, you can stow your bag under your seat, and you can stretch your legs during the flight. I will choose a C-17 over a C-130 any day of the week and twice on Sundays!
Good to hear that some changes workout for the better! Welcome home.
Bring back the Vanguard and Electra ! Seriously though, if fuel prices continue to rise, why not build a 120 pax turboprop using state-of-the-art technology? Remember Boeing's 150 seat 7J7 PropFan concept?
Flying the CRJ 200/700. I must strongly agree that the No pax turbo prop comes close to those speeds except for the q400. Managed a TAS of 375kts and a ground speed of 460 kts. Awesome airplane and def out flys the CRJ 200 in performance.
Got me a fully mod 200/600ER the other day. We did some playing and all was good but I don't know what it will do on a long haul. It's an ER so I guess we'll find out in the next week or 3
I have an affinity for the turboprop. I grew up watching the Pacific Airlines Fairchild F-27s at Meadows Field in Bakersfield and often the sight of a Horizon Dash 8-400 evokes those fond memories. The whine of the Rolls-Royce Dart is unforgettable. Gary
Regional Jets were not supposed to replace props on short runs, they were actually created to relieve congestion at Hubs and fly more direct linear routes bypassing Hubs.. Instead, commuter/regional airlines dumped the more efficient props and put regional jets in their place or even dumped cities altogether because all of a sudden the RJs were too expensive to fly into smaller cities.
Im afraid tho, because of public perception that props = danger, it might be harder to go back to them. Its like after Deregulation, when local service airlines that flew DC9s or BAC 111s into smaller cities pulled out and the service was replaced commuters using Beech 99s or Twin Otters....Today people just dont care, they want what they want and they dont care if it costs someone else to provide it for them.....
But we need something more that Q400s and ATR72s....We need a decent MULTI ENGINED 9 passenger prop plane to replace aging Navajos and CE 402s. Convincing passengers to rely on a Single Engined Cessna Caravan or PC-12 can be tough..
We also need something in the 19 passenger range as well as the 30-40 passenger range....US Aircraft manufacturers dropped the ball big time when it came to fulfilling the need for Medium sized commuter props planes...And most of them built in other countries are either carrying cargo or have been scrapped.
To try to go back and re-introduce props will be hard because the airlines themselves have cut their own throats by re-enforcing the belief to passengers that props are less safe.....
Thats a new twist never heard of props being a problem with the public before must have missed it.
A lot of the unaviation public perceive props as old technology. I've had people talke about the turboprop service we have, and they think the aircraft must be from the 1940s. Many are surprised to find out they are 90s or newer aircraft.
Well, you got to remember that turboprop was an advancement back then. It ain't hard for me to remember as a young man flying on a Convair 580 and it was top of the line.lol
I think the public just got spoiled when the RJ's came along and thinking that they were an advance in technolgy,(and rightly so as they were marketed that way), hence when a service would change back, it was a regression. This is just kinda personal as well, but NWA used to field all CRJ's KMEM to KFSM, to compete with Eagle for awhile, then that last evening flight would turn into a Mesaba prop, which would RON and be first flight out next morning. Big disappointment to see that waiting at KMEM after a long day or to start your day off with. I don't know that it's as much a problem as disappointment.
I'm glad they are making a comeback. they're an overall better solution im my opinion. they hold just as many people and can fly almost as far. It's also cheeper. the Saabs are my favorite, followed by the Q200
i would fly a Q400 over a CRJ200 on any route less than 300 miles. Anything further, the speed difference becomes apparent.
Some time soon, they will probally tweak the engines or invent a new engine to settle the speed difference. I would fly an EMB 120 any day of the week.
My personal opinion, from a speed standpoint, it's not that much difference up in the business end because you are busy, but from a pax standpoint it's the vibration and noise. Once you have been on a full size jet of some type or an RJ, it is just like a downgrade and as I said in another post, a disappointment more than anything. While we all know they are just as reliable, it is a hellacious letdown at the end of a long day, to step off a jet of some type and onto one for the last leg home. That said, your destination makes a lot of difference. As a pax, I'd much rather fly out of KFSM than KLIT, just on account of less hassle.
Engineers will also probally create a quiter, firmer engine, but you are right, stepping from a jet to a prop is a little of a let down, but personally I see nothing different than size and interior decoration whatever little there is.
That interior may have something to do with the feel too as about every one that I have been in has been rather spartan.lol
Great Lakes has been going at it for years with Beech 1900's. Yet Delta and American recently eliminated turboprops. Makes ya wonder.
Great Lakes survives only on the Essential Air Service subsidies. Half the time they fly empty flights just to make money from the govt.
[This poster has been suspended.]
I may have missed the half of the times you speak of, but I've flown GLA from Minneapolis to South Dakota destinations several times and there were always other passengers with me.
flights out of PHX are what i've referred to, but i do remember seeing a news report about it to.
Many of American Eagle's old Saab 340's are parked and sitting at KABI. I always wondered what might happen to those planes.
I didn't know Eagle had any SAAB'S. I thought they were all ATR
No I used to fly on AA Saab 340s from Orlando (MCO) to Miami (MIA) back in the 90s.
I just probably didn't pay that much attention. Stretch the Q400's and bring 'em on.lol
Low and Slow and Loud and like riding inside a sewing machine. Anything to save some gas and a buck I guess. I avoid them would much rather fly a Bombardier or a 145
Been saying it for years... Planes like the Q400 are a great solution, fast, nice, significantly more fuel efficient... yet again we cater to American ignorance and fly half empty A320s on 1 hour routes daily because they don't have big scary propellers.
Yeah, I have to agree with Andy. Personally, I haven't been on a half-empty airliner in over 20 years. Usually it's a full or even over-booked flight with the "this is a full flight, so we don't have any room for your carry on or your feet" announcement.
And I do think that turboprops are good for flights of about an hour duration that normally don't carry more that 50 pax or so. Beyond that you start having too many problems with weight and balance.
We had a chance to fly Horizon Air Dash-8's last year into and out of Medford, OR. An accommodating flight crew even gave me a quick tour of their front office during a weather delay. It is surprisingly modern. Although it's tough for me to squeeze my 6'5", 240 lb frame into any small RJ or turboprop, I enjoyed those flights much more than on the ERJ140's that AA uses here in the Midwest. (Then again, after the Roselawn ATR crash, AA and its subsidiaries did away with all non-jets where cold weather is a factor.) On the Dash-8, we were low and slow enough to enjoy the beautiful Pacific Northwest scenery, but still high enough to avoid significant turbulence. The difference in flight time was 15 minutes vs. a jet. Although it was a bit louder than the RJ, conversation was easy. Actually, the background noise prevents conversation from loud passengers from being heard. There's no reason why comfortable, well-designed turboprops can't do the job.
really? LFs for US Based airlines are in the upwards of 85%+ so not sure where this "half empty A320s" claim is based of.
Another one here never have heard of anyone say props are scary but hey am not everwhere ether, also they dont seem to have as much problem with the birds either maby they are the ones scard by the props.
Only one mention of the BAC-11 here but in reality they were the first RJ's. Braniff flew a slug of them back in the day and they could hop in and out of about anywhere; best I remember quieter and smoother than anything around at that time, including the DC-9.
As far as the birds, engine wise, you don't have near the open intake and by the time that prop gets done with them, there generally is not much to worry about anyway. A pilot may not even know he has encountered a bird.
I remember seeing Mohawk Airlines BAC 1-11s at Newark Airport in the 60s. The outdoor observation deck above the old (North) terminal's West Arcade let you get tantalizingly close to the aircraft. Sadly, the 1-11 prototype introduced the aviation world to deep stalls on T-tailed aircraft when it crashed during stall testing. Mohawk's 1-11 and United's Caravelles were the 'runts' of the aircraft during those days, especially when parked next to a 707 or DC-8. But they were loud jets, so they were still very cool to a child!
Climbout was an understatement with them. Braniff pilots were cowboys anyway, but more than once, as wx approached KFSM, they would leave the gate quickly, stand on their tails and bank out heading toward KTUL or KOKC in time to beat it. The local ANG didn't have anything on them boys. That was in the late 60's.

The nation's second largest rate-regulated utility owner of wind-powered generation resources just added 74 new wind turbines in Wyoming.
On Oct. 1, PacifiCorp's Dunlap I wind project began producing renewable energy for customers in six states. The company serves 1.7 million electric customers, operating as Rocky Mountain Power in Utah, Wyoming and Idaho, and as Pacific Power in Oregon, Washington and northern California.
PacifiCorp and its sister utility, MidAmerican Energy Company, own wind resources with a combined generating capability of 2,316 megawatts - topping the list of all U.S. rate-regulated utility owners of wind generation.
The Dunlap I wind farm is located in Carbon County, Wyo. near the town of Medicine Bow. Its 74 turbines have a total generating capability of 111 megawatts. On average, the annual energy production of the wind farm is expected to equal the amount required to serve about 32,000 households per year.
"We've learned a lot during the past several years about operating variable energy resources as part of a portfolio with other more constant resources needed to serve our customers," said Mark Tallman, PacifiCorp vice president of renewable resource acquisition. "Since 2006, we've added 12 wind projects that we own and operate in Wyoming, Oregon and Washington. We have also acquired cost-effective renewable energy for customers through power purchase agreements with other wind project owners."
In Wyoming, PacifiCorp now owns nine operating wind projects: Foote Creek I, Seven Mile Hill, Seven Mile Hill II, Glenrock, Rolling Hills, Glenrock III, High Plains, McFadden Ridge I and Dunlap I. Also in Wyoming, the company purchases 100 percent of the output of six operating wind projects owned by others.
"Some have mistakenly suggested our wind energy acquisitions in Wyoming are for the purpose of exporting electricity to power-hungry markets in the Southwest or solely to meet the renewable energy requirements of other states," said Tallman. "That is far from the truth. In fact, these are cost-effective resources that are needed to help meet our customers' growing electricity needs in Wyoming and the other five states we serve. These resources have also resulted in valuable Federal tax benefits being passed through to our customers. PacifiCorp's generation and transmission functions serve customers in all six states in which the company operates. As system resources, customers in each state pay only for what they use. We're regulated on a state-by-state basis, so all costs and benefits must first be reviewed and approved by a state's utility commission before customers there see any change in electricity prices resulting from new facilities."

Mom jeans and stretch pants be damned, because Kim Kardashian isn't letting a little thing like carrying an unborn child to term stop her from wearing skin tight uncomfortable leather maternity dresses.
By the grace of God, the 32-year-old mom-to-be somehow managed to stay upright in a pair of sky high stiletto heels and successfully wedge all of her childbearing hips, ass and thighs into a form fitting mustard yellow sheath while maneuvering through the streets of NYC on Tuesday.
Pregnancy can be so constricting.

'Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together' live video: Watch NBC benefit concert to help Sandy victims
Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen and more are hoping to lift the spirits of those affected by Sandy while raising donations for relief efforts.
According to a statement, Bon Jovi has pulled out of a European press junket in London to return to the States. "I really need to get back home having spoken to my wife and kids who are stuck in New York. I need to be with my people," he said. "Thankfully, my family is safe."
The New Jersey native is eager to pitch in, noting that many rely on his JBJ Soul Kitchen, a community kitchen in Red Bank, New Jersey, for food.
"I need to find a generator and get that working. ... We take care of each other, that's what we do," he said. "There is no power, water, the devastation is off the charts. The President is in my hometown in New Jersey because of the damage. It's like Armageddon. Where my children surf, 80 houses burnt down."
Bon Jovi will join fellow Jersey icon Bruce Springsteen in a benefit telethon and concert to raise support for the American Red Cross relief efforts.
NBC Universal's networks - including NBC, E!, Bravo, MSNBC, Style, Syfy, USA, CNBC and G4 - will air the event Friday from 8 to 9 p.m. ET with Matt Lauer on board as host.
"Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together" will air live on the East Coast, with a tape delay for the West. (No TV? You can catch the telethon live on NBC.com.)
Christina Aguilera, Billy Joel and Sting will also perform, with appearances from Jimmy Fallon and NBC News' Brian Williams.

Klipsch Image X10 Noise-Isolating Earphone
" Those earphones are very nice, strong tight bass, mids are detailed but a bit lacking, highs are very smooth. Soundstage is ok, but I don't have much experience on it (worse than IE8 for sure). I love the warm sound, and it really reveals low quality compressed songs. The build fells fragile. I mostly use it at home, and I had no problems with it. They are very comfortable, but they stick out..." --yliu
