The Swedish retailer has proposed a 470,000-square-foot store to replace one about half that size less than a mile away. The new store would be Ikea's largest in the United States.
"We need the big store now, quite frankly," said Ikea spokesman Joseph Roth. "It's not so much planning for the future as addressing our current situation. The store needs to be updated."
If approved, the new store will sprawl over 22 acres near the company's 242,000-square-foot store, which opened in 1990. The current Ikea will remain open until the new store is ready in fall 2016, the company said.
The company submitted its development plans to the city earlier this month, Roth said.
The approval process could take nine months to a year, with construction starting in 2015. The project will create 500 to 1,000 construction jobs, Roth said.
While the current Ikea seems pretty big already to many shoppers, some welcomed the news of an even bigger one on the way.
"Bring it on," said Dawn Adams of Newhall, who was shopping at the current Ikea Tuesday with a tape measure and notebook in hand.
While she favors the idea of an even-bigger Ikea, the interior designer admits the 242,000 square-foot warehouse store can be daunting.
"It is a little overwhelming to come in here -- I get heart palpitations sometimes," Adams quipped.
Alex Mendoza of North Hollywood, who was testing out beds for his new apartment, isn't convinced.
"I feel that building a new Ikea would be a waste because there's nothing wrong with this one," Mendoza said. "I think we're kind of an impatient culture and I don't think we need to feel like we constantly need more and more and more. We should be happy with what we do have -- and this place is already huge."
"My mom always says that's the problem with our generation, that bigger means better," Mendoza added. "In this case, I'd agree with her. I'm not convinced bigger would be better. I just don't see the need."
But Stephanie Koenig of downtown Los Angeles, who was shopping for a kitchen table for her apartment, thinks the larger Ikea will bring more variety. "I always say, `The bigger the better,"' Koenig said. "I don't care if I get lost."
The new site will have improved access and parking and a larger warehouse space. Ikea currently has to store some merchandise at off-site locations, Roth said. There will be parking for 1,700 cars.
"Because of this store's success, we are excited about the opportunity to build upon our established presence in Burbank with a new, roomier store," Ikea U.S. President Mike Ward said in a statement.
The privately held company declined to release financial details of the project, but Roth said, "Obviously it will be tens of millions of dollars by the time you buy the land and build the building."
Ikea, founded in Sweden in 1943, has 330 stores in 40 countries, including 38 in the United States. The world's largest Ikea, at 594,000 square feet, is located outside of Stockholm.
The new Ikea Burbank would stock nearly 10,000 items, versus about 8,000 for the current store, Roth said.
It will also feature 50 "inspirational room-settings," three model-home interiors, a supervised children's play area and a larger restaurant for serving Swedish specialties.
Other family-friendly features include a "Children's Ikea" area in the showroom, baby-care rooms, preferred parking and play areas throughout the store.

Few people were more excited to see what Colin Kaepernick did against the Green Bay Packers than Chris Ault, the former coach at the University of Nevada.
Ault, who stepped down following the 2012 season, developed the "pistol'' offense in which Kaepernick thrived at Nevada after not being heavily recruited as a high school player out of Turlock. His system of football will be carried on under new coach Brian Polian in 2013.
Ault, 66, shared his thoughts on Kaepernick, the pistol and the place the option football has in the NFL in phone interview Monday night:
Q: As the game was unfolding against the Packers, what was it like to watch? Did it look like what Colin did in college, only against the highest level of his profession?
Ault: I just enjoyed the heck out of watching the game and I kept thinking to myself, 'They're in pistol a lot, hopefully they'll run that read a few more times.' The things I was seeing were the things we'd seen here and looked like it would be a pretty good call. When they did it, it was exciting to see and of course exciting to see Kaep do his thing. The great thing about that read, as you well know, they give it to the (running) back more than the quarterback, and I don't know what those backs averaged, but I know it was pretty doggone good.
Q: How similar was the stuff the 49ers were running to what you ran for Kaepernick at Nevada?
Ault: The read plays that they're running, that's what we ran. That's what we did and what we still do. The play-action passes, which I was really excited to see out of the pistol, are things that we did here in Kaep's senior year. The routes, I can't tell you the routes are the same, but I thought that was the one thing I had not seen the Niners do, that I saw the Redskins do, was throw the ball with play-action out of the pistol. I thought the play-action passing really helped with the read itself out of the pistol. It was fun to see, I'll tell you. I recognized most of it, and I'm sure they changed it to match their personnel, but it was fun to see the skeleton, anyway.
Q: Had Greg Roman or Jim Harbaugh reached out to you at any time since Colin has been there to pick your brain about him?
Ault: Not since he's been there. Greg came over, their last year at Stanford. Greg, and I want to say, two other coaches from Stanford came over. And they wanted to look at the pistol, what are you doing, what are you running, they just wanted to see what it is and what advantages there would be. They were with us a day, a day-and-a-half, it was a lot of fun. We exchanged films and it was good clinic talk. But I have not talked to Greg or Jim since Kaep's been with 'em.
Q: You do a lot of that, telling coaches about what you run and how you run it ?
Ault: You know what ... we've been very, very open about the pistol offense. Last year we had over 44 teams come to spring football. College, high school, JC, Canadian teams a couple of years ago. We've been very upfront in sharing some of the things we do with it and a lot of the coaches that come say, 'We can't run these particular things, but we run these and we'd like to see it.' There has been some nice exchanges, and it's grown so much, and at the collegiate level it's all over the country. And I enjoy watching all these other teams run it to see what they're doing. Everybody thinks the pistol is just a read, but the pistol is a formation. And from that formation, if you're a power offense, you can run the power. If you're a counter offense, you can run the counter. It's not just a read offense. I think the read offers another dimension to it, but it's really a versatile formation.
Q: How similar is what you did at Nevada to what Chip Kelly is doing at Oregon?
Ault: Chip and those guys, they have the back offset. He's not behind the quarterback. So their first base play is an outside zone play, a sweep-type action. Whereas our first base play is an inside zone and that sets up the read and the play-action pass off it. Really two different offenses, Chip's and ours.
Q: A lot of people lump them together simply because the quarterback runs a lot . .
Ault: Well, that part of it, those two things you could lump together. It's really basically where you're going to start your back, behind the quarterback or on the side. Oregon does it from the side and we do it from behind the quarterback.
Q: What was Colin like to coach?
Ault: You don't get many of those. He is probably one of the most unselfish, humble young men I've ever coached, and I've coached for a long time. He leads by the way he practices. His work ethic is just unreal. Just unreal. He set the tone -- and it didn't matter if you were an offensive player or a defensive player. When Kaep worked out, he set the tone for the way that workout was going to go.
Q: As you watch what Kaep did on the big stage, as well as what Robert Griffin III, Cam Newton are doing, do you think based on scouts you've talked to that the NFL evaluates quarterbacks differently than they did before?
Ault: You know, here's my thinking, and we've had a lot of scouts come through. Obviously the pure dropback guy, in the NFL's eyes, if he can throw it, he's going to get a lot of attention. But I think because of what's happening now -- the NFL's been a copycat league, as you well know -- and they haven't really diversified much through the years other than maybe a special formation now and then, with their passing game. But I think what the pistol is bringing to the table is there is something else out there. And you can do a lot of different things out of the pistol. But I think, in my personal opinion, what they're seeing out there, is these quarterbacks that can run in this day and age, they can also throw. It used to be, if you could run, then you couldn't throw very well, so you're not going to make it, you're going to go to defensive back. But these kids now, they're such good athletes and the offenses at the collegiate level, have become so diversified, they're more complex, and the guys are just that much better to go to that next level.
Q: Seems like common sense to take advantage of the athletic skills these quarterbacks have . . .
Ault: Absolutely. I'm not here to tell you that the 49ers should run the read 16, 17 times a game. You can't do that in the NFL. But I think by running the read play, it's in your offensive system and you're going to run it five times, nine times a game, it's one more thing you've got to defend. And then when you throw the play-action pass off it, that's another thing. So it's not just one dimension that you've got to look at, it's a couple of things. You see Kaep run that 56-yard touchdown, and you say, great, that's the read option. And it is great. But I think one of the things that set that up was a couple of the play-action passes out of the pistol.
Q: Atlanta saw to it that Russell Wilson did not carry the ball on the read option based on how they deployed their linebackers . . . Kapernick's running on the read option can be taken away, correct? And in so doing, do you relinquish the middle?
Ault: That's exactly right and that's what happened in college. They would load the outside and take Kaep away, and that's why it's the read. You give the ball off. We really designed our pistol offense, where we want the running back to carry the football. That is first and foremost in our thinking. But all of a sudden, you just fall asleep, just like Green Bay, you're handing it, and handing it and handing it, and he might've been able to pull it a couple of other times, but he waited until the right time. No question, they might just say, 'We're not going to let this Kaepernick run the ball.' And we had that in college. Then, it gives you an opportunity to run the read and the play-action pass.
Q: The 49ers did a little bit of this during the season, but they really waited until the right time to break it out, didn't they?
Ault: (Harbaugh) kept it in his hip pocket. He probably couldn't sleep at night he was so excited to get it going. What a great coaching job by those guys and the element of surprise, and the diamond they run, the two-back offense with the pistol, that was good stuff too. I just think, I always love to see the NFL become more innovative. In the past it's just been a copycat league.
Q: I noticed late in the game, with the game under control, Kaepernick could have gained more yards, and he slid instead . . .
Ault: You doggone right he did. I'm sure when Kaep ran that one play and he took on those two guys, I'm sure Coach Harbaugh had something to say to him. We taught him here, you get your yardage and when they're closing on you, get down. Get out of bounds. I've seen guys -- I mean, if you throw the ball 45 times in a game -- I've seen some of the most vicious hits on quarterbacks that you can see. We've never lost a quarterback running the pistol -- not one. We had one quarterback miss a game and a half and it was due to an injury we had at practice. You've got to use your head. Obviously you're not going to run Kaep like we did in college. But you tell him, use your head, if they're around you, you go down. You don't need to take anybody on. I hear these guys talking and stuff, about a 16-game season, well, sure, common sense is going to tell you, we want to hand this thing off most of the time. That's what the running back is going to do.
Q: Talked to Colin since the game?
Ault: We text. I don't want to bother him. Listen, I've never done that. I don't want to bother him and his concentration, and let those guys get his mind going towards Atlanta.
Q: Send him an congratulatory text?
Ault: Oh, yeah. I said, 'Just awesome, awesome.'
Q: His reply?
Ault: He usually replies right back. This time he didn't. He's probably got me on the list. Usually he just says, 'Thanks, coach.' He is that humble. He's not going to say, 'Yeah, I had a great game.'
Q: He's not particularly expansive with the media, zeroed into the team aspect, talking up teammates, his linemen . . . does he avoid being the center of attention?
Ault: You know what, believe me, in the five years we had him here, a lot of that is about being a quarterback, but he is a very humble and unselfish young guy. That's the way he was here. He would rush for 240 yards or something like that and you would think he rushed for 50. That's just him and he's a team guy all the way. Always has been.

Richard Littlemore | April 15, 2008
By Richard Littlemore • Tuesday, April 15, 2008 - 08:50
"You need a giant plan for America. Not the pissant 83 megawatt [windfarm] deals being stamped all over the country. There needs to be a huge plan from someone with leadership. It's going to take years to do, but it has to start now."
Al Gore? Nope. Too plain-spoken. This quote comes from oil tycoon T. Boone Pickens, an erstwhile Bush supporter who is bankrolling a Texas windfarm that will be five times bigger than the current world-record holder.
Is Pickens a sudden convert to what the denier community calls global warming "dogma"? Not hardly.
"Don't get the idea that I've turned green," Pickens recently told the Guardian in the Dallas offices of his new venture Mesa Power. "My business is making money, and I think this is going to make a lot of money."
Gotta like capitalists with vision.
John Mashey replied on Permalink
Not surprising
This isn't that surprising. T. Boone Pickens is well-known for thinking that Peak Oil has already happened.
For example:
"Open letter to Texas newspapers about peak oil: 'Why aren't you listening?'" http://www.energybulletin.net/14606.html
I prefer Big Wind to Big Oil
I prefer Big Wind to Big Oil or Big Nuclear, but I think it would be even better to have small windpower on every individual farm and every home where feasible. Last I heard it was too expensive, but it should be getting cheaper to do.
John Mashey replied on Permalink
Physics matters
Philosophically, I agree, but unfortunately:
1) There's more wind higher, and while people try hard for rooftop devices, it isn't easy.
2) These things don't scale down as well as one might like, i.e., power ~ radius^2 for a given type of design.

T. Boone and Crude Oil
Will T. Boone actually sell electricity to make money? Probably not. Since crude oil flows in his veins, he will most likely use the electricity for advanced methods of heavy oil recovery such as steam flooding, steam-assisted gravity drainage and in-situ resistive heating.
FYI, Shell R and D has developed an in-situ method of resistive heating in oil shale deposits that will make available some of the several trillion barrels of oil equivalent in the Green River Basin.
Brian D replied on Permalink
Rather than idle speculation
Rather than idle speculation (or speculation to spread FUD, it doesn't matter), it's easier just to follow the paper trail. Judging from the agreement between Mesa Power and the Energy Reliability Council of Texas, Pickins actually is selling electricity to the consumers (specifically delivering it to the grid through either the Oklaunion or Anna substations).
Richard Littlemore replied on Permalink
Thanks Brian, John ...
… it's nice to read into the comments and find new information.
Harold Pierce replied on Permalink
The Juice is for Oil Recovery
Hello Brian!
T. Boone's $6 bilion project has not yet been built. Shell WindPower also has a proposal to build a wind power project in the same area. There is an oil and nat. gas basin centered in Robert County.
Go over to ClimateArk and read about Shell's pilot project using in-situ resistive heating to recover oil from oil shale in western Colorado.
With oil at $100/bbl it would only take about 60 million bbl to recover capital cost.
alexferguson replied on Permalink
T. Boone has always been a
T. Boone has always been a real American … as long as there was a bundle of money to be made by him. If reducing our dependence on oil (and foreign oil in particular) isn't profitable, then why bother? Seeing beyond the profit motive never has been his strong suit.

How to Be Funny on Twitter
Probably the first thing you should do to be funnier on Twitter is print out this "How to be Funny on Twitter" article and light it on fire in front of a crossing guard. Not a full cop because you might get arrested but still, someone in a uniform so that it feels ceremonious.
Can you teach a bird to fly? I mean, probably you can if you're a mother or father bird, but you get the idea. First though, are you even a bird? That's probably the larger question.
A class or a bunch of guidelines on how to be funny is about as futile as a second appendix that sits between your shoulder blades. And just as disgusting. With that as our preamble, here are eight INDISPENSABLE things you must do to be funny on Twitter:
1. Dress comfortably. Maybe undo the top button on your dungarees so your gut doesn't feel constricted. That's where your creativity lives.
2. Call your mom. That's always a good idea. If she's dead, that's fine, just say something nice about her out loud. Are you estranged from her? Figure out why. Probably some jokes in there.
3. Join Twitter. Can't skip that one.
4. Think about what makes you laugh. Is it old people falling down? If it is, get help. That isn't funny and you're a big jerk. You disgust me.
5. Put on "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning" by Frank Sinatra. It's not funny at all, but it's a sublime example of an artist doing something incredibly, perfectly well.
6. Have a cup of coffee to get your cylinders firing. And none of that pumpkin spice garbage or anything with a long silly name. Coffee. Like a regular person.
7. Imagine William Shakespeare peering down on you from a big, orangey-pink cloud at sunset. He's filled with good will for you and he KNOWS you'll do well. But he's wrong; I mean, let's get real.
8. Finally, write amazing, hilarious tweets effortlessly.

- and all right here in Anniston
Only 25 percent of all hospitals in the country have cancer programs accredited by the COC, with 80 percent of all newly diagnosed cancer patients being treated at those facilities.
While no one can guarantee the outcome of any cancer treatment, patients can rest assured that they will receive the best in diagnosis and treatment of cancer, that full consultative services will be available from all medical disciplines involved in diagnosing and treating the disease, and that their condition will be carefully watched through a lifelong program of follow-up care.
The COC is comprised of Fellows of the American College of Surgeons and other members representing 39 national cancer-related organizations. To maintain accreditation, facilities with accredited cancer programs must undergo an on-site review every three years.

Just 350 miles from the cubicles and incubators spawning the digital renaissance unfolding in Silicon Valley, Burning Man turns 28 this year -- probably about the same age as many of the high-tech workers who flock to the weeklong homage to communal self-expression.
But with pro-tech and disconnect camps warily eyeing each other at Black Rock City, Burning Man is showing acute symptoms of a digital identity crisis it has long wrestled with. This year, burners, as attendees are known, aren't just trying to find themselves -- they're searching for Burning Man's soul, and figuring out how tech fits in.
The drones overhead may provide a clue.
"I saw none in my first year," said festival veteran Jim Parisi, 42, who works in the Bay Area for a large computer maker that he declined to name. "Last year, I saw several. I suspect that the skies will be abuzz with them this year."
As Burning Man glimmers with a sheen of high-tech sensibility, festivalgoers are bringing new accessories -- Wi-Fi hot spots, smartphones, GoPro cameras. This year, there's even a Camp Bitcoin, which calls itself "the first Burning Man camp for crypto-currency industry professionals worldwide."
At the same time, there are plenty of traditionalists who eschew the tools of the digerati and bemoan the influx of rich techies. As one blogger on SFist put it: "Burning Man itself is quickly becoming Coachella on Crack for rich tech folk."
Yet the tech keeps coming: Videocameras, for example, increasingly document everything, not only in close range to capture the trademark nudity on the open playa but also from atop a nearby mountain for sweeping shots of the annual and oft-debauched festival.
Dreamus.com, a "dream-sharing" group, announced that it will bring its solar-powered video booth, known as the DreamBox, back to Black Rock City.
"This time it will be LIVE, with an Internet connection and a video feed of people's dreams," the group wrote on its website. "We expect to go viral, but we know it's silly to even say that."
Though their population among the 68,000 attendees has swelled in recent years, tech workers were some of the first to embrace Burning Man and its disruptive designs. And now that the valley is cranking out instant 20-something millionaires, entrepreneurs don't have to rough it in the desert, said Brian Doherty, a senior editor at Reason magazine who wrote the book "This Is Burning Man."
"If you've got a lot of money, maybe you don't want to have your tent knocked down by the wind," said Doherty, 46, who lives in Los Angeles. "Maybe you want to have a nice place to hide away."
Enter plug-and-play camps, a term in burner lexicon for the ritzy shelters that some wealthy attendees enjoy without lifting a finger, thanks to the "Sherpas" who wait on them. The phenomenon has left some burners concerned that the valley has fundamentally disrupted the desert.
"I worry that earlier, simpler spirit of Burning Man is being lost," said Landis Gwynn, a tech writer at Oracle who has been to the festival before but is skipping it this year. "It would be sort of a turnoff to see all these tech millionaires descending on Burning Man."
Tech celebrities including Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg have been spotted at Burning Man in recent years. Yet few Silicon Valley firms would publicly cop to having their leaders at the event. Companies including Advanced Micro Devices, Juniper Networks and Oracle said they were not aware of any executives making the trip. A spokeswoman for Tesla declined to comment on the plans of CEO Elon Musk, who has publicly declared his passion for Burning Man.
Burning Man used to be a time when tech workers took refuge from technology. Some camps offer Wi-Fi now, but fiddling on a smartphone is a social faux pas, several burners said.
"It's just kind of an awkward place to be Facebooking," said Bailey Queue, a 43-year-old Web designer from Santa Cruz who is going to Burning Man this year for the fourth time.
But when Black Rock City finally opened itself up to the faithful Tuesday after a deluge of rain, tweets surfaced about the festival's iconic pyre.
"Behold, the man ... It's a massive 150 feet tall this year!" one burner posted on Twitter.
And Burning Man's own Facebook page enjoys more than 688,000 likes and provides running commentary on the event.
Despite the digital rift, it's difficult to discern which camps people fall into in Black Rock City, Doherty said. Three-year veteran Riaz Rahim, a 28-year-old product manager at Groupon, is leading a camp with his friends at Burning Man this year. In his time as a burner, Rahim said he felt somewhat out of place until he gradually realized that many of those carefree dancers in the sand were actually fellow techies, hailing from corporations like Google and Facebook.
Gwynn, the Oracle employee, wishes they weren't in such good company.
"I went to Burning Man," he said, "as a getaway from the valley."

About Us > Newsroom > National Jewish Health Transitions into Lung Cancer Care and Research
National Jewish Health is seeing its first cancer patients today in the newly established Lung Cancer Center. National Jewish Health has diagnosed and treated lung cancer patients for many years. The opening of the center integrates all current clinical and research cancer efforts. Initially, the Lung Cancer Center will focus on the diagnosis, treatment and research of lung cancer with expansion into other forms of cancer in the future. Lung cancer is the third leading cause of death in the United States with more than 150,000 deaths each year; more deaths than breast, prostate and colon cancer combined.
As the top respiratory hospital in the nation, National Jewish Health is uniquely positioned to provide exceptional diagnosis and treatment for persons with lung cancer.
"Oncology at National Jewish Health draws on existing strengths in imaging, genomics, interventional pulmonology, immunology, pathology and clinical research," said Jeffrey Kern, MD, Chief of Oncology at National Jewish Health. "World renowned physicians and scientists at National Jewish Health have focused expertise and state-of-the-art technology that enables early detection and intervention, accurate staging, and therapy for the best possible prognosis."
An adult chemotherapy infusion center will open shortly to provide chemotherapy treatment. Radiation oncology and surgical oncology will be coordinated closely with the University of Colorado Denver Health Science Center and Rose Medical Center.
"One of our hallmarks will be individualized and personalized selection of treatment for patients taking into account a patient's specific type and stage of lung cancer, their genetics and other medical conditions," said Dr. Kern.
Dr. Kern's own research has helped reveal the origins of lung cancer, especially the events within cells that control their growth. He will continue that line of research while recruiting world-class scientists to develop a research program based on epithelial-cell biology, cell signaling, tumor immunology, tumor biomarkers, and drug discovery and testing. As a part of the lung cancer program, Dr. Kern and his colleagues will participate in clinical trials and translational research.
National Jewish Health is known worldwide for treatment of patients with respiratory, cardiac, immune and related disorders, and for groundbreaking medical research. Founded in 1899 as a nonprofit hospital, National Jewish remains the only facility in the world dedicated exclusively to these disorders. Since 1998, U.S. News & World Report has ranked National Jewish the #1 respiratory hospital in the nation.

Mount SSH/SFTP or FTP accounts as if they were local files.
MacFusion is an open source Mac application that allows you to work with files on servers across the internet, as if they were sitting on your computer. Macfusion presents a Volume in Finder, letting you use your favorite Mac applications to work with them. Macfusion works with SSH/SFTP and FTP servers.
More generally, Macfusion is a front-end to Gogole's MacFUSE software. Macfusion provides a plugin API to enable the creation of plugins for other FUSE filesystems.
Required OS: not specified
Tags: sftp , ssh , finder , network , macfuse , fuse

Mounting an FTP server with MacFusion & OSXFUSE is so slow it's useless, and MacFusion tends to crash. Cyberduck is a much better solution.
Lets you mount remote filesystems over SSH or FTP, and access them through Finder. Far nicer than using the ssh command in Terminal, or a third-party FTP client (which you may well have to pay for).
NB. Finder does already provide FTP access (via âConnect to serverâ¦â), but itâs read-only.
NB2: In order to have write access over SSH, youâll need to do the trick described here (http://jann.is/daily/archives/757-ExtraAdvanced-options-for-MacFuseMacFusion.html) to map your local username to the username of your SSH account.
NB3: I find it convenient to place a link to Macfusion.app in Finderâs toolbar.
To get it to work under Snow Leopard, increase time-out interval and refer to this post:
Is this still being maintained? MacFuse is currently 1.5.1 and the latest MacFusion is for use with MacFuse core 1.1 . . .
V. 1.2 Beta 3 hangs my system when I try to mount an ftp location. I then have to restart Mac OS by keeping the reset button down.
It did this twice on two different locations, accessed via the 'favorites' menu.
I don't have the time to investigate more, sorry. :)
Just a note to everyone ...
If you have problems with write access using FTP or SSH, please try adding
"-odefer_auth" in the advanced options, without the quotes. This has fixed many issues with FTP and SSH.
If anyone has any improvement suggestions, bug reports or any other issues please add them to the list of issues at the MacFusion Project
http://code.google.com/p/macfusion/wiki/quick is a good place to start.

MacFusion Project member
New version is here: http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/users/08/mgorbach/MacFusionWeb/MacFusion_1_01_Beta1.zip
Just a note for you all: If you were having issues with storing of passwords in keychain under SSH or FTP accounts, I highly recommend you give the new beta a try. It has fixed many issues related to storing passwords. It can be found at the google group for MacFusion, linked off the MacFusion website.
Pretty much K.I.S.S. I love it's simplicity and although I'm still working with Fetch and Transmit, I heart this one very much.

There are many excellent reasons why you might want to collect coins. For starters, they tell unique stories. A coin's design, mint mark, condition and composition can offer a glimpse into history and a better understanding of the past.
Some people collect coins in the hope that they will appreciate in value. Some coins have intrinsic bullion value (such as silver, gold and platinum coins). Others become valuable because they are rare.
Coin collecting, one of the oldest hobbies, was once practiced only by kings and the wealthy. That's why coin collecting often is called the "king of hobbies" and the "hobby of kings."
Coin collecting became increasingly popular in America during the 1930s when United States commemorative coins became widely available. Today, there are millions of coin collectors in the United States alone. The thriving coin-collecting community, which includes clubs throughout the United States provides numerous opportunities for collectors to meet and trade.
A Brief History of Coins
From ancient Egyptian coins to today's circulating cents, coins have a rich and fascinating history. The first coins date back to 650 B.C. - more than 2,600 years ago - in Lydia, an area that today is part of Turkey.
The first United States coins were copper cents, which were struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 1793. At that time, production was manually intensive and the coins were struck one at a time. Today, about seven hundred coins can be produced in one minute.
Check out the United States Mint's Virtual Tour — a behind the scenes look at how we produce both circulating coins and numismatic products! Visit our "How Coins Are Made" pages and our "Birth of a Coin" section for an animated introduction to the minting process. Although designed for children, this special addition to our H.I.P. Pocket Change site provides straightforward information suitable for adults as well as kids.

Vitrolife in IVF technology deal
02.07.2012 - Cell cultivation company Vitrolife announced it will acquire Hungarian Cryo Management Ltd, a specialist in time-lapse embryo monitoring for IVF.
Gothenburg – The purchase sum is €5m, and could be increased to €9m upon the fulfilment of defined objectives primarily related to sales during the period 2013 to 2015. Through the acquisition, Vitrolife gains access to a product portfolio in the form of time-lapse products for IVF and increased knowledge within IVF technology and embryo development.
The fixed purchase sum is financed by a corporate acquisition loan of €3m and by payment of €2m in newly issued shares or cash. If payment is in shares, this is planned to be carried out after distribution of the subsidiary Xvivo Perfusion AB. Vitrolife, headquartered in Gothenburg in Sweden, anticipates that the acquisition will have a marginally negative effect on earnings per share for 2012 due to increased marketing activities and transaction expenses but that the business will make a positive contribution as from 2013. Cryo Management Ltd and its subsidiary Cryo Innovation Ltd are located in Budapest, Hungary. The company was formed in 2005, with 20 employees and budgeted sales of approximately €2m for 2012. The company has developed, produced and marketed time-lapse products, primarily for the IVF market. Its Primo Vision time-lapse technology takes images of the embryos at short intervals during the cultivation process. The pictures are then played back as a film which is analysed by an embryologist. This method avoids, amongst other things, today's problem that the sensitive embryo is subjected to stress when being evaluated as the embryo must be taken out of the incubator for assessment. The time-lapse technology also enables the entire development of the embryo to be studied, which gives greater opportunities to choose the most optimal embryo and thereby improve the chances of pregnancy.http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-03/vitrolife-in-ivf-technology-deal.html

CASTRO VALLEY -- Castro Valley High girls track and field star Sasha Wallace took a very analytical approach to choosing a university.
"I went through all the pros and cons of all the schools, and it pretty much came down to Oregon," said Wallace, who won two state individual track and field titles last June. She transferred to Castro Valley from Holy Names over the summer.
Wallace signed with the Ducks this morning at a ceremony at Castro Valley High.
"It was pretty much just me wanting to be part of a rich program," said Wallace about her decision. "It's Tracktown. It's the best of the best as far as resources."
Wallace took visits to Oregon, Kansas State, Kentucky, Arizona and Central Florida before choosing the Ducks.
"I'm going to be close to home and my family can be accessible to me," she said.
She also had a valuable resource in the recruiting process in her father Joaquin, who has been the head women's basketball coach at San Francisco State for eight seasons.
At the 2012 California Interscholastic Federation state championships in June, Wallace won the girls triple jump by nearly 17 inches with a mark of 41 feet, 5¿3/4 inches. She also was first in the 100-meter hurdles with the fastest wind-legal time in the nation (13.33 seconds) last season.
She was also the national leader during the 2012 high school season in the triple jump with a mark of 42-4¿3/4 (wind-legal). Her best marks in both the 100 hurdles and triple jump were among the 10 best in California high school history for the events.
Wallace was named the Bay Area News Group East Bay Female Athlete of the Year in June.

Over the past year, I have fallen very fond of the home improvement and blog website ApartmentTherapy. This online nucleus missions itself on "helping people make their homes more beautiful, organized and healthy by connecting them to a wealth of resources, ideas and community." What I appreciate most about the site is its never-ceasing posting that provide an array of ideas. The writers and designers within the site also work diligently to create inspiration for all designs aesthetics.
As I made my weekly "swing" by ApartmentTherapy.com this morning, the one of the top posts was the new "January Cure." This is the site's new month long, daily email program sent to participants providing a task for folks to complete each day. The idea is to promote efficiency which will result in having all of your home improvement chores to be completed by the first of February.
I am a big fan of New Year's resolutions, so I didn't hesitate signing up for the "January Cure" for a second. There are several things around my home that I intend to complete; however, I don't care to drag out the process over the course of the whole year. Sound like yourself? Check out ApartmentTherapy.com to get signed up for the daily home improvement assignments sent out every weekday. Upon your arrival to their website, type "January Cure" into the search box at the top of the page. This will navigate you to the sign up page immediately.
After providing my email address, I received my first daily assignment (January 2) to "make a list of projects." My list humbly includes: to finally finish the painting project I have been working on since Thanksgiving, acquire well-considered and effective wall decor to match my desired ambiance, replace all light switch and outlet plates, and replace bedding.
Perhaps your list consists of cleaning and organizing your closet, finally tackling your cabinetry updating project, purchasing new furniture and modernizing your decor.
While your list may seem fully attainable, busy schedules can quickly intervene. ApartmentTherapy's orchestrated timeline for your projects give some promise to helping you enjoy the majority of your 2013 in a home that makes you proud and feeling accomplished.
For more home style tips and information visit ifurnish and More Space Place in Frisco or email Kalyn Johnson at firstname.lastname@example.com.

How to Set Up a MongoDB NoSQL Cluster Using Oracle Solaris Zones
By Orgad Kimchi-Oracle on Jun 24, 2013
This article starts with a brief overview of MongoDB and follows with an example of setting up a MongoDB three nodes cluster using Oracle Solaris Zones.
The following are benefits of using Oracle Solaris for a MongoDB cluster:
• You can add new MongoDB hosts to the cluster in minutes instead of hours using the zone cloning feature. Using Oracle Solaris Zones, you can easily scale out your MongoDB cluster.
• In case there is a user error or software error, the Service Management Facility ensures the high availability of each cluster member and ensures that MongoDB replication failover will occur only as a last resort.
• You can discover performance issues in minutes versus days by using DTrace, which provides increased operating system observability. DTrace provides a holistic performance overview of the operating system and allows deep performance analysis through cooperation with the built-in MongoDB tools.
• ZFS built-in compression provides optimized disk I/O utilization for better I/O performance.
In the example presented in this article, all the MongoDB cluster building blocks will be installed using the Oracle Solaris Zones, Service Management Facility, ZFS, and network virtualization technologies.

Findings in relation to the instances of Irving's historiography cited by the Defendants
13.51 For the reasons which I have given, I find that in most of the instances which they cite the Defendants' criticisms are justified. In those instances it is my conclusion that, judged objectively, Irving treated the historical evidence in a manner which fell far short of the standard to be expected of a conscientious historian. Irving in those respects misrepresented and distorted the evidence which was available to him.

STOCKTON – San Joaquin Sheriff's deputies are investigating a jewelry heist at DeVons Fine Jewelers in Lincoln Center.
Sheriff's spokesman Deputy Les Garcia said three suspects wearing masks and gloves entered into the store, at Pacific Avenue and Douglas Road just after 12:30 p.m. and sprayed an aerosol spray into the air.
The thieves used an ax to break display cases, stole jewelry, and fled in a black Cadillac.
Garcia said nobody was injured and no firearms were reported. The amount of jewelry stolen and its value has yet to be determined.

Soundrop Brings its Interactive 'Listening Rooms' to Facebook
Oslo-based Soundrop introduced its 'listening room' to the music service Spotify last year where it claimed to be responsible for the streaming of 500 million tracks over 12 months. The idea is that people can listen to music from their favorite artistes and chat with fellow fans. The company has brought the same service to Facebook , with the addition of video so fans can watch as well as listen.
The Facebook service will let people embed existing playrooms on to Pages — specifically fan pages — on Facebook. There, people can add a mixture of audio tracks (from Spotify) and videos (from YouTube and Vevo), and then interact with each other on the page while in the room together. Artists that have signed on early to use the Soundrop Facebook feature include Matisyahu, Delphic, MC Lars, Owl City, Dan Deacon, Devlin, Nick Cave, Franz Ferdinand, Hot Chip, ABBA, Public Enemy and Greg Dulli from the Afghan Whigs…
It's… one step in what Soundrop hopes to do eventually: "Our strategy is to give everyone our SDK to embed the rooms in apps, websites, mobile apps. Everywhere," said [Inge Sandvik, co-founder and CEO of Soundrop]. "We want to scale out the rooms everywhere. They are going to be accessible from TVs, cars, phones, tablets, laptops – all in real time."

Markets Brace for Weak Canada GDP Print Friday
By Nirmala Menon
Canada's closely watched gross domestic product report is due Friday, and financial markets are bracing for a weak print, possibly showing the worst back-to-back quarterly growth figures–outside of a recession–in 17 years.
The consensus estimate is that Canada's economy expanded a mediocre 0.6% on an annualized basis in the fourth quarter of 2012, according to economists at RBC. That would be the same pace as in the third quarter.
Excluding economic slumps, there haven't been two successive periods of sub-1% growth in Canada since the second and third quarters of 1995.
There won't be much comfort if expansion here outpaced the U.S., where output grew just 0.1% in the fourth quarter, because recent data from south of the border have generally been good, and government spending cuts are masking strong underlying fundamentals. That's in stark contrast to the recent stream of weak economic figures from Canada, including poor manufacturing, retail and wholesale trade numbers for December. See some of those results here.
"The implications of that is, the handoff to the first quarter (of 2013) will be very poor," Mazen Issa, Canada macro strategist at TD Securities, told Canada Real Time. He's looking for GDP to have grown 0.5% in the fourth quarter and said an even weaker print wouldn't be a surprise.
In addition to the external headwinds that are dragging on exports, domestic demand is weakening as Canadian consumers, weighed down by record debt, look to cut back spending. Meanwhile, Canadian governments don't have much room to spend as they grapple with budget deficits. That leaves the heavy lifting to businesses, but even though many are sitting on large cash piles, overall capital spending by Canadian businesses this year looks like it will be quite modest.
Statistics Canada, the country's statistical agency, will release the GDP figures at 8.30 a.m. EST Friday.

Get down and dirty in the garden
By Eileen Troemel
Eileen Troemel, black thumb, gardening, container gardening
Residing in rural Wisconsin, by day Eileen Troemel work as a clerical worker and part-time student. At night she spends her time writing. Raised on a farm, she has a love for nature and is inspired by the beauty and power she finds there. Nature and her just don't get along though as she has the blackest of black thumbs.I've been talking about container gardening and herb gardening for almost a year. I love fresh produce but struggle with physical limitations that prevent me from doing traditional gardening. (Oh yeah, and there is the whole black thumb thing.) If I do container gardening, will it be like trying to keep a house plant alive? Will I kill the plants rather than help them to grow?
My daughter, who is ever helpful, found a few things that will help with the container gardening—we hope. She was in a dollar store and purchased an herb garden mix, salad mix and, for my flower obsession, butterfly and hummingbird mixes. She thought the hummingbird and butterfly mixes could be put in containers, but we discovered on reading further that these were annuals and perennials. We will have to find a place to plant these flowers in our yard (not a hardship). The salad and herb garden mixes came with their own containers. I'm not sure how it will work with the hole in the bottom. That is supposed to be for easy watering but doesn't that mean that you have to have a tray to put under them? Well, I think it does. The directions aren't clear. There are seven or eight directions on how to plant these seeds. We have been having unusually warm weather, and I'm on vacation for a week. Therefore, I'm going to attempt to make these things grow.Since my daughter got them at the dollar store, she spent only $16 on the four things. If these don't work, I'm going to blame it on the quality of the product and try to wiggle out of blaming my black thumb. I know there are people out there who are going to KNOW it is my black thumb but hey—a girl has to have some delusions right? Here goes my first attempt at container gardening….

Barclays Center Builder Beefs Up Data Analytics
Forest City Enterprises, the parent company of the developer that built the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, is ramping up its business analytics capability as public investors push the company beyond family control.
Over the last two years Forest City has shifted to more data-driven analysis and less gut-driven decisions. The move came as pressure from shareholders has tamped down control by the Ratner family and forced it to change focus from big controversial development projects such as the Barclays Center—the new home of the Nets basketball franchise–to the more mundane work of collecting rent on properties, according to BMO Capital Markets analyst Paul Adornato. Bruce Ratner is planning to step down as chief executive of Forest City's New York-based development company, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday. And for the first time, over the last two months, the board has come under the control of non-family members.
In an October 2011 filing, investment firm Third Avenue Management LLC said it had pushed Forest City on "modernizing its governing structure" and "enhancing financial reporting."
"In order to answer investor requests, they have changed corporate governance," Mr. Adornato said.
Jeff Linton, a Forest City spokesman, said the changes reflected a desire within the company for more data-driven methodology, and were not the result of shareholder pressure. "None of the changes were knee jerk reactions to what shareholders were asking for."
As part of the change, the company's chief technology officer, Charles Rau, has shifted his IT team from "commodity back office work" to developing analytic tools for business executives. Mr. Rau is providing executives with SAP business intelligence tools, embedded inside iPads, that allow them to analyze and compare vacancy levels, cash flow and return on investment of any of the company's properties. "You can look at the business holistically…It allows them to compare properties under the same light," said Mr. Rau, who plans to deploy the tools to a couple hundred executives over the next few months. "You can see which malls are doing well and which are struggling."
To help develop the platform, he has moved several employees from help desk work to implementing the business intelligence tools, replacing the support positions with outsourced workers from the technology firm Genesis10. "We wanted them to be doing high competency stuff," Mr. Rau said.
Forest City's shift to a more data-driven approach fits with the company's move toward providing shareholders with more information, said Mr. Adornato. "They are re-examining all aspects of their business and trying to rationalize expense structure."

Despite Poor Sales in China, Toyota Raises Forecast
TOKYO—Toyota Motor Corp. lifted its profit forecast for the current fiscal year Monday, dispelling concerns that tumbling sales in China amid anti-Japanese sentiment could derail plans for a robust recovery from damage to its business from last year's natural disasters.
The upward outlook revision—the first and likely only among Japan's top-three car makers—is a rare upbeat view among Japan's blue-chip companies as consumers in China, the world's second largest economy, shun Japanese goods, from cosmetics to consumer electronics and cars.
Toyota raised its net profit projection by 2.6% for this fiscal year to March from its previous forecast after posting more than a threefold gain in net profit for the July-September quarter.
In a news conference after the results were released, Executive Vice President Satoshi Ozawa, said the situation was changing "to a point where we are now able to factor in a greater contribution" from cost cuts and price increases to offset the yen's strength.
The company's earnings are a contrast with those of Honda Motor Co. released a week ago. Japan's third-largest car maker lowered its net profit forecast by 20%, blaming slumping sales in China amid caution among global car makers about their business outlook in Europe as the debt crisis there drags on.
