Tucson's Historic Barrios
A link to Tucson's Spanish and Mexican past, the barrios have become a critical part of revitalizing the city's oldest neighborhoods.
By: Jennifer Netherby
For almost as long as it's been part of the United States, Tucson was a Spanish-speaking territory and settlement. That heritage is evident in the city today through its cuisine, street names, large Hispanic population and older barrio neighborhoods, now part of a major city revitalization effort.
Spanish conquistador Francisco Vazquez de Coronado was the first European to pass through the Tucson area around 1540 in search of the "Seven Cities of Gold." More than a century later, Spanish Jesuit missionaries moved into the area, establishing missions and converting the local Tohono O'odham Indians.
One of the more spectacular missions they built was the nearby Mission San Xavier del Bac, which blends Moorish, Byzantine and late Mexican Renaissance architecture.
Not far away, modern-day Tucson was established as a Spanish presidio, or fort, in 1775, around the same time that the Declaration of Independence was being signed on the other side of the continent. Built where the Pima County Courthouse and other downtown buildings now stand, the presidio had a walled fortress surrounding a garden and residences. The new city was named Tucson, a Spanish word borrowed from the Tohono O'odham Indian name "Cuk Son," pronounced "Chook shon."
Mexico won its independence from Spain in 1821, and Tucson became part of the new nation.
History of the Barrios
The barrios, some of which still stand today, were built in the early 19th century to house the growing population. In 1854, the city became a U.S. territory along with the rest of present-day southern Arizona under the Gadsden Purchase. While other parts of the city were Americanized, the barrios retained their own culture largely due to their distance from the railroads, which brought in the newcomers.
By the late 1950s, those barrios had fallen into disrepair and the city began bulldozing them to make way for progress in the form of a convention center, government buildings and downtown skyscrapers. An outcry by residents forced them to back down before all were destroyed.
The Barrios Today
In the 50 years since, artists, younger couples and other Tucsonans slowly began moving into those that remained, bringing revitalization money into the old neighborhoods.
Barrio Historico, immediately south of the Tucson Convention Center, is one of the best preserved. The nearly 20 blocks of Sonoran-style adobe row houses painted in yellows, reds, purples and other colors of the rainbow give the area the feel of a Mexican village more than a turn-of-the-century American city. The homes house artist studios, young couples and some longtime Hispanic residents, making it one of the more diverse neighborhoods in the city.
Nearby, Barrio Santa Rosa, has been hailed as a new urban model for the way architects and builders fit new adobe row houses, rammed-earth and hacienda-style homes into the existing neighborhood. Like Barrio Historico, it's home to a mix of longtime Hispanic residents, younger families and couples without kids. Older homes in the neighborhood start in the lower $100,000 range with newer ones fetching up to $500,000.
Meanwhile, the city and private developers are beginning work on Rio Nueva, a $250 million mixed development project in nearby areas building on those early successes. Plans call for several unused downtown buildings to be converted into lofts, construction of walkable neighborhoods with new single family and multi-family homes built in the old Spanish style and close to restaurants and businesses, a new Arizona history museum and science center.

67mm filter on 58g?
Jul 4, 2014
Last week I went on a short trip and only took a 28mm f1.8g and 1 58mm f1.4g for my D800 and it seems like a good travel combo for me. My only issue is they gave the 58mm a 72mm filter size. I'd just as soon not have to carry 2 diff size polarizers and I already own a nice 67mm MC "thin" one. Looking at the way this lens is made etc, I can't imagine a 67mm filter would vignette on this lens, especially stopped down to f2 or more where I mainly use it. Anyone tried this?

Costner caught in garden disputeComment on this story
Kevin Costner is being sued by a neighbour.
The Bodyguard actor has infuriated Rick Grimm by planting a series of trees and shrubs to protect his privacy in Carpinteria, California, and has allegedly ignored requests to cut down the greenery.
Grimm - who bought his house, which is situated behind Kevin's, in 2009 - says he has sent "multiple" pleas to the actor asking him to trim the shrubbery, only for them to be replaced with even taller trees, which block his once-spectacular ocean views.
Grimm is seeking $150 000 damages for loss of enjoyment and $500 000 for damages to his property value if the trees are not removed.
The lawsuit states the 57-year-old actor made it clear he would not "back down" and would "do everything in his power to secure his privacy".
In addition to his damages claim, Grimm wants a judge to force Kevin to chop down the trees.
It is believed that rules for the area state that no hedge shall be over six feet tall. - Bang Showbiz

"Attn DPT: Please do not ticket this vehicle…"

The current SFMTA position is that only security guards and cops can legally park at this location. This is a result, one supposes, of that Chinese citizen firebombing the front door of the place on Laguna not too long ago…

Well, I know it's a selfie stick because I seen them using it. In this shot above they are simply reviewing their results.
Actually, I heard about the "selfie stick backlash" afore I ever saw one. We're moving through Kashmir Hill territory here, from June 2014:
"That is un-f***ing believable," he said. My Hong Kong friend was surprised by our surprise. "It's a selfie stick," she explained. "They're all over Asia."
Oh, here's one, and there are others.
In closing, selfie stick – it's a thing!
Or, if you'd prefer, Selfie-Stick Fever – Catch It!
Oh let the sun beat down upon my selfie-stick, stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
To pose for selfies with the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
They talked for days of my new iPhone 6, and all will be revealed
It's a wrap, deets below.
Some photos of the second day are here.

Capacity Number of Attendees Witness the Unveiling of the World's First Tizen Smartphone, New Tizen IVI System and Tizen Smart Television SDK
SAN FRANCISCO, June 5, 2014 — The Tizen Developer Conference (#TDCSF14), the world's largest event focused exclusively on the growing developer ecosystem around the Tizen open source operating system for converged devices, today marked the closing of the third-annual TDC event in San Francisco. The event saw a record number of developers and media attendees witness the official unveiling of the world's first Tizen smartphone, the Samsung Z, set to launch in Q3 of 2014 in Russia. A number of other new device prototypes, software, device profiles and developer tools were also on display at the event.
Highlights included:
The news of the day:

Boy, it wouldn't take too much effort from a few members of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to hop on this particular bandwagon.
Now, which street to rename?
Hey, how about Laguna, the location of our Chinese Consulate? My, wouldn't that be "provocative?"
In related news, here's what a small stretch of Laguna looks like now, right in front of the consulate – see the brand-new NO STOPPING ANY TIME signs?
They're also on Geary, so that means the Western Addition has lost maybe ten parking spaces, in the name of security, one supposes.
Actually, I'm surprised that parking lasted as long as it did, as it was such an obvious security issue.

Then the Taylor Swift people said no way, Jose.
But hey, look what's on the front door now, a weathered posting:
Here's my stab at it:
But here's the For Sale sign that's still there. (Note the smallish 3810 Washington next door on the left.)
And here's the web site still offering the place for sale. Check it out – the floor plans make this place look amazing, with levels up and down into the earth
And here's the current listing.
This certainly is a mystery…

"DON'T YOU SIDEBALL ME: Chronicle's Beth Spotswood blogged Feb. 17 about being given "extreme side eyes" near the Lunar New Year parade reviewing stand in Chinatown as she vainly scouted for verbal shots against local pols from Chinese Chamber of Commerce advisor Rose Pak. As Spotswood skulked about and expressed disappointment about Auntie Rose's tameness, she nicknamed one parade observer as a scowling "Side Eyes" allegedly close to Pak…While fortunately not tagging anyone as an incendiary "slant eye" or "round eye," she had to be referring to a fish …"
Verdict: NOT RACIST. (This was an easy one.)
And actually, Rose Pak got pressured by elements of the Communist Party of China (CPC) as well as SFGov, so she doesn't mouth off as much anymore.
Even her 2012 performance was relatively tame:
She was out of control back in the aughts.

Additional Information
About MLO Humo and PartnersMLO Humo and Partners is a microfinance institution in Tajikistan that aims to support vulnerable and underserved populations living in rural areas through financial and consulting services for small businesses. Kiva loans are used by groups and individual borrowers to start and grow businesses and build brighter futures for themselves, their families and their communities. This is especially important in Tajikistan, the poorest country in Central Asia, where more than two-thirds of the population lives below the poverty line.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

Jonathan Tannenwald, Philly.comWhat a wild weekend in college football, and what a successful weekend for the region's teams.

At the I-AA level, No. 1 Villanova upset Richmond, with Chris Whitney... Read more

Is it really football season?
Jonathan Tannenwald, Philly.comI guess it is. Though I find it really hard to believe that the first games of the season kick off in only 72 hours.

Collection: Congressional Research Service Reports
Globalization, Worker Insecurity, and Policy Approaches
Date: December 22, 2011
Creator: Ahearn, Raymond J.
Description: This report discusses the trends driving global economic integration, sources of worker insecurity and policy approaches. There appears to be a range of views on the merits of each of these policy approaches and the extent to which they can be designed and implemented in a way that would reduce worker insecurity without undermining the benefits of globalization.

Globalization, Worker Insecurity, and Policy Approaches
Date: December 22, 2011
Creator: Ahearn, Raymond J.
Description: Today's global economy, or what many call globalization, has a growing impact on the economic futures of American companies, workers, and families. The current wave of globalization is supported by three broad trends: technology, increase in world supply of labor, and reduced government policies to international trade and investment.

The Future of the Eurozone and U.S. Interests
Date: January 10, 2011
Creator: Ahearn, Raymond J.; Jackson, James K.; Nelson, Rebecca M. & Weiss, Martin A.
Description: Seventeen of the European Union's 27 member states share an economic and monetary union (EMU) with the euro as a single currency. These countries are effectively referred to as the Eurozone. What has become known as the Eurozone crisis began in early 2010 when financial markets were shaken by heightened concerns that the fiscal positions of a number of Eurozone countries, beginning with Greece, were unsustainable. This report provides background information and analysis on the future of the Eurozone in six parts, including discussions on the origins and design challenges of the Eurozone, proposals to define the Eurozone crisis, possible scenarios for the future of the Eurozone, and the implications of the Eurozone crisis for U.S. economic and political interests.

Treasury Securities and the U.S. Sovereign Credit Default Swap Market
Date: July 25, 2011
Creator: Austin, D. Andrew & Miller, Rena S.
Description: This report explains how the sovereign credit default swap (CDS) market works and how such CDS price trends may illuminate fiscal stresses facing sovereign governments. Although CDS prices may be imperfect measures of the federal government's fiscal condition, some investors may try to glean information from those price trends. CDS prices have been playing an important role in the European government debt markets and could potentially affect U.S debt markets in the future. European policymakers have debated certain restrictions on types of sovereign CDS trading, and such calls for reform may be of interest to U.S. lawmakers.

France: Factors Shaping Foreign Policy, and Issues in U.S.-French Relations

Creator: Belkin, Paul
Description: This report examines the key factors that shape French foreign policy. From that context, it analyzes some of the reasons for the tensions in and the accomplishments of U.S.-French relations. The report is illustrative, rather than exhaustive. Instead, the report reviews issues selected because they exemplify some of the essential features of the U.S.-French relationship.

NATO Common Funds Burdensharing: Background and Current Issues
Date: March 10, 2011
Creator: Carl, Ek
Description: This report discusses North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) burdensharing--the funding, via individual contributions from NATO member states, of certain commonly conducted activities. The report discusses how each NATO member state's contribution is negotiated, and how member states are reconsidering their defense budgets (and, thereby, their willingness and ability to contribute to NATO operations) in light of the global financial crisis.

Trade in Services: The Doha Development Agenda Negotiations and U.S. Goals
Date: March 10, 2011
Creator: Cooper, William H.
Description: The United States and the other 153 members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) have been engaged in a set or "round" of negotiations called the Doha Development Agenda (DDA) since December 2001. The DDA's main objective is to refine and expand the rules by which WTO members conduct foreign trade with one another. This report is designed to assist the 112th Congress to understand and monitor progress of the negotiations and the major issues that the negotiators are addressing. The report provides a brief background section on the significance of services to the U.S. economy. It then explains briefly the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) and the structure and agenda of the services negotiations in the DDA round, including U.S. objectives in the negotiations. The report concludes with a status report on the negotiations and an examination of potential results.

The Depreciating Dollar: Economic Effects and Policy Response
Date: April 15, 2011
Creator: Elwell, Craig K.
Description: This report discusses the trend of depreciation of the dollar since 2002. This raises concern among some in Congress and the public that the dollar's decline is a symptom of broader economic problems, such as a weak economic recovery, rising public debt, and a diminished standing in the global economy. However, a falling currency is not always a problem, but possibly an element of economic adjustments that are, on balance, beneficial to the economy.

Creator: Getter, Darryl E.
Description: This report provides a description of the debit payments process and network pricing, as well as an overview of the effects of the Durbin Amendement implemented by the Federal Reserve which includes a cap on the interchange fee for large issuers. In particular, the Durbin Amendment is discussed in light of comments by Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke.

Even the erotic nightmares may be able to make more pleasant the Wake. Erotic dreams may even help ease tensions, since the content is often reflected in real excitement.
Who never had a nice erotic dream?!
Even the erotic nightmares may be able to make more pleasant the Wake. Erotic dreams may even help ease tensions, since the content is often reflected in real excitement.
Men have erections and, in women, vaginal lubrication occurs. The physical strain of the excitement begins with the dream, even before the person is relaxed sleep.
An erotic dream can also be just a way of giving meaning to issues unresolved. Here a list of the most common dreams:
Although nudity in general is associated with sex, there is an erotic connotation in this dream. It shows a situation in which the person is feeling humiliated, powerless or exposed. In practical life, is usually a sign of fear of public speaking and expose their ideas.
Sex with the Boss
Does not translate necessarily attracted to the person. You have to understand what is the symbolic meaning that it occupies in your life. If sex, for example, is a source of insecurity for the dreamer, the dream may reflect job insecurity or fear of failing professionally.
Sex work colleague
In the dream, the partnership has a sexual nature. However, this does not mean horny collected, but rather that the two have chemistry and a good relationship. It also means that you may be learning from the person, since sex is related to exchange, knowledge and experience.
Can reveal the desire to live a fantasy and at the same time, it is a way to do it, but not specifically. Forced sex can also translate a desire to be sexually active without being tied to social norms or conventions.
Sex with famous people
Sex with a celebrity is very common among women. It's the kind of dream of self-esteem booster. In the real world, the person is in a situation of intimacy with someone you want or disputed. And of course, wants to take the best.
This is a dream more common to males, although many women also have. Many people have this fantasy, but lack the courage to do it. But this dream also suggests that the person feels trapped in other aspects of your life, not only in the sexual sense.
Means that the person wants to be admired, desired, renowned for her sexual abilities or other talents you have.Sex in unusual setting
Amusement park, luxury car, bathroom of the club, empty classroom, building, balcony … Anything goes! It is also a dream more feminine, it translates to fantasy environments common good-something women. You can report a desire for romance, desire to innovate, out of boredom.
Sex with the same sex
If you are heterosexual, although the content has nothing to do with homosexual desire or erotic. Believe it: what is behind this dream, in fact, is the desire or need to put in place the opposite sex to understand it.
Sex with someone UNKNOWN
Sex with an unknown person can translate a need for change, a new desire. And it reveals a desire to make a more gender-free bonds.

Federation Tactical Fleets
View Single Post
July 7 2013, 09:58 PM
Re: Federation Tactical Fleets
Arguing that the 10th Fleet only had a single assignment is possible, but not all that consistent with what we know of the assignments of all the other described fleets. The 3rd was considered for participation in liberating DS9, even if it had commitments at Earth, so it wasn't flat out impossible for it to have varied assignments. The 2nd and the 5th that eventually were included in this liberation were explicitly said to be pulled back from other, distant assignments.
All the back-and-forth rushing of fleets we saw makes it look unlikely that fleet identity had anything to do with specific assignments or locations. For all we know, the ten (or slightly more) fleets were created for the purposes of the Dominion War only,
of them being mixtures of UFP and ally assets, and some other war would have seen different forces differently arranged.

Niger: African conference pledges greater protection for civilians
21-02-2002 News Release 02/15
Geneva (ICRC) – The African Parliamentary Union's first Conference on International Humanitarian Law for the Protection of Civilians during Armed Conflict in Africa came to a close on 20 February with the adoption of a Final Declaration.*
The Conference, held in Niamey, Niger, was attended by delegations of parliamentarians from the following countries: Algeria, Angola, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Côte d'Ivoire, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Gabon, Guinea, Kenya, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Senegal, Sudan and Tunisia.
During the Conference, participants exchanged views on the protection of vulnerable people during armed conflicts and discussed possible parliamentary action to ease their plight.
The Final Declaration highlights the concern of parliamentarians over the proliferation of armed conflicts and other forms of violence in Africa, which have caused immense suffering among civilians and violated the norms of international humanitarian law. It also stresses that there could be no better prevention than good governance, the rule of law and respect for human rights.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) urges parliamentarians to fulfil their pledges, in particular by playing an important role in bringing about accession by States to humanitarian law treaties and ensuring that those treaties are reflected in national legislation and fully implemented. The participants also committed themselves to paying particular attention to the plight of refugees and displaced persons and to preventing the recruitment for military purpose of children under 18 years of age.
One of the Conference's aims was to encourage parliamentarians to use all the means at their disposal to facilitate parliamentary discussions on humanitarian law treaties and to ensure that States and all parties to armed conflict honoured their obligations, in particular to respect the rights of the victims of armed conflict and the dignity of all individuals.
The participants also undertook to provide independent humanitarian organizations, in particular the ICRC, the National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and their International Federation, and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, with unimpeded access in times of armed conflict to civilians in need and to facilitate the free flow of humanitarian supplies.
In order to keep up the momentum created by the Conference, the first of its kind, and to generate further debate on humanitarian law and related issues, the parliamentarians requested the African Parliamentary Union to set up a coordinating committee in charge of follow-up activities.* http://www.ipu.org/

A minimalist style that doesn't sacrifice support, the New Balance® 101 men's running shoe is crafted using a lightweight blend of mesh and synthetic materials. Its rubber outsole provides durability and dynamic traction on tricky surfaces.

The final phase of a years- long pollution control upgrade project at DTE Energy's Monroe Power Plant will begin this weekend when hundreds of workers converge at the E. Front St. site.
Up to 300 contract workers will work on the installation of emissions control on a boiler, or unit, of the plant during routine maintenance.
Another 400 workers will be on hand for other maintenance jobs.
Barry Marietta, supervisor of the emission quality group, said the construction of the pollution control equipment, or scrubbers, could take until mid-May to complete.
" There is a significant amount of time involved in the work," he said. "It has to be done during the outage."
An outage refers to the shutdown of the boilers and will not have any effect on customers, he said. The plant has four boilers and three have been equipped with the upgraded pollution control process. Two upgraded units have been in operation for several years.
Once work is done in May, another outage will occur for a one- to two- week period in October before the overhaul is considered complete. Then the focus will be to demolish the remaining 800- foot tall smokestack, said Randi G. Berris, DTE spokeswoman.
Two shorter 580- foottall stacks, which are part of the scrubber systems, will be serving the four units once they are overhauled.
There is no timetable yet on when demolition will begin on the existing stack. The other taller stack was removed in 2012.
The 700 additional contract workers on site in the next several weeks will cover two shifts. Ms. Berris said emphasis is placed on local and state contractors.
Typically boilers are shut down for maintenance every two years in the spring and the work takes nine to 11 weeks to complete. The installation of the new scrubber, known as a flue gas desulfurization ( FGD) system, coincides with the shutdown.
The FGD system further reduces sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, mercury and acid gas emissions, Ms. Berris said.
It works in conjunction with what is known as the selective catalytic reduction ( SCR) system, which reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by about 90 percent.
When operating together on the same generating unit, the combination also eliminates 75 to 90 percent of mercury emissions.
The Monroe Power Plant is the first coalburning plant in Michigan to operate with scrubbers and the first Michigan plant to operate scrubbers in combination with SCRs, DTE officials said.
The operation of the systems at the 3,000 megawatt Monroe plant will help meet new federal emission standards that take effect Jan. 1.

Re: Persistent Time Machine Error in response to rpbnyc
Look at C2 in the first article. Also make sure the disk is formatted properly.

Re: Persistent Time Machine Error in response to rpbnyc
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — anonymize before posting.

I have the same problem at two places. At home and at work. The same system (Lion) the same external drive: G-Drive 2Tb.
Here are messages from console concerning backup failure.
First backup works but none after.
Partitions in two subdisks and reformating don't help.
Please, M. Davis, have a look.

Re: Persistent Time Machine Error in response to ofocus
I have been experiencing the same Time Machine failure with OS X 10.9.2. Some initial number of Time Machine backups succeed, but after a few hours a backup fails with the messages below. Thereafter, backups continue to fail until I reboot. Then all is well for a few more hours.
4/23/14 11:58:16.260 PM com.apple.backupd[11525]: Starting automatic backup
4/23/14 11:58:16.297 PM com.apple.backupd[11525]: Backing up to /dev/disk2s2: /Volumes/Seagate 4TB Backup/Backups.backupdb

4/23/14 11:58:16.622 PM com.apple.backupd[11525]: Backup failed with error 2: 2
Some facts that may possibly be relevant:
I am backing up to a Seagate "Backup Plus" desktop drive directly connected to my iMac via USB. I used Disk Utility to copy my previous Time Machine backup volume "Macintosh HD 2", a 1 TB internal drive. I had to do this because the Finder reliably failed when trying to drag the backup folder to the 4TB Seagate drive that is attached via USB. Rsync also reliably failed when attempting to copy Backups.backupdb
Even more interesting, backups to my internal Macintosh HD 2 volume never experienced this Time Machine backup failure, while backups to my external Seagate 4TB Backup volume do have this problem. Is it possible that a Disk Utility copy of my 1 TB internal drive is somehow corrupted? Everything checks out okay in Disk Utility, and the Seagate drive passes the Seagate Dashboard drive test.
DonnaR Apr 24, 2014 5:38 AM
Re: Persistent Time Machine Error in response to rpbnyc
How are you connecting to the G-Drive? It should be able to work with any cable it comes with, but in fact there are known issues when connecting with FireWire. (See comments/reviews on amazon.com re that issue.) The G-Drive Mobile doesn't have those problems, though.

Astronomers have stumbled onto a previously unknown star in Earth's stellar neighborhood, a red dwarf that appears to be the third-closest star system to our own.
"Our new stellar neighbor is a pleasant surprise, since we weren't looking for it," Bonnard Teegarden, an astrophysicist with NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, said in a written statement.
Teegarden, the lead author of the study, and his colleagues happened upon the star while searching for nearby white dwarfs, the remains of collapsed stars that quickly traverse the night sky. Astronomers track white dwarfs like they track planets and near earth objects, by tracking their change in position over time. The study of these dead stars can then help estimate the mass and ages of galaxies.

Brendan Haywood is the veteran of the Bobcats' frontcourt. / Sam Sharpe, USA TODAY Sports
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Veteran center Brendan Haywood will miss at least 12 weeks with a stress fracture in his left foot, the Charlotte Bobcats announced Thursday.
The team said in a release Thursday that Haywood will have surgery next week to repair the problem.
Haywood has been struggling with the ankle in recent days and had an MRI and CT scan on Wednesday ordered by foot specialist Bob Anderson. The team says the test results revealed a stress fracture in the navicular bone.
Surgeons are expected to place two screws in the bone to reinforce the stress fracture and help it to heal. Haywood will be immobilized for 12 weeks.
Haywood played in 61 games last year for Charlotte and averaged 3.5 points and 4.8 rebounds per game.

The Secret to Winning Back Your Woman
When it comes to trying to get your girlfriend back, it might seem like this is the world's most difficult task. However, this does not have to be the case. Most men make it seem harder than it actually is. The fact is, folks have been led by movies in Hollywood, makers of greeting cards, chocolates and jewellery makers how love is supposed to be, when this is the farthest thing from the truth.
As a matter of fact, once you are left behind by your girl, it may seem as if your relationship is broken irrevocably. However, there are a few things you can do that will truly help in restoring your relationship. If you really want to win your ex girlfriend back, there are a few things you need to remember.
3 Secret's To Winning Back Your Woman …
How to Win Your Ex Girlfriend Back – Remember that Life in the Past is Over
Alice Morse Earle American Author in the turn of the century had written, "Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it is called the present."
Living in the past of your relationship will rob you of the present joy you can live in. Of course, once your woman has left you it can steal away the necessary clear perspectives on what needs to be accomplished at the moment to make your relationship work a second time around and to save it.
How to Win Back An Ex Girlfriend – Becoming the Real You
For most men, this is not easy. It is something you may have thought about and reflected upon. In the movie called The Kid starring Bruce Willis, the adult man gets a confrontation from his 8-year old version. The horrified 8-year old sees his grown self and says that he has become 40, unmarried, not a jet pilot and has no dog. He then says that he had grown up to become a loser.
In these echoes of childhood, there is sometimes wisdom. You might have not pursued the ideas of becoming a jet pilot (who really gives this idea up?). However this does not mean that you are unable to begin the path to becoming your true self, the person you yearn to be, even if it doesn't involve jet flying. Step number one is making a decision about the person you truly want to be. Next, you need to tackle the methods of transforming into a man.
How To Win Girlfriend Back – How This Gets Your Girl Back
There really are no movie scripts in life. You need to wait a bit before truly getting her attention. However, once you begin making notable, real changes into the person you want to be and stop attempting to remake a past that was not as perfect as a picture, you might be able to gain a new future outlook. One certain thing is that the moment you become the person you prefer to be in the PRESENT, here and now, this is something your girl will want to be involved in.
