Two Deputies Killed After Man Shoots Cop In Head Inside Maryland Panera BreadFebruary 11, 2016 at 8:50 am by Morbid
ABINGDON, MD – Officials say two sheriff's deputies are dead after 67-year-old David Evans ambushed a police officer inside a crowded Panera Bread restaurant in Maryland.
According to reports, Evans was sitting inside the restaurant looking "sketchy" and disheveled. Evans was known to the workers and, going by statements made to the press, has a history of mental issues.
A sheriff's deputy was called to the location to check on a report about Evans causing a problem. According to witnesses, the officer sat down beside Evans and asked him how he was doing. Evans responded by pulling out a handgun and shooting the officer in the head.
"I saw him fall back out of his chair and the blood started coming out," said one patron sitting 10-feet away from the shooting.
Evans fled the scene and witnesses gave responding officers a description the direction Evans was headed. One deputy caught up to him, leading to an exchange of gunfire that left both Evans and the officer dead.
The names of the two police officers have not been released yet, at least not while I am writing this up, but it was reported that one was a 30-year veteran and the other served 16 years.…

Elementary School Teacher's Aid Used Students To Make Child Porn At SchoolFebruary 10, 2016 at 8:58 am by Morbid
GLENARDEN, MD – Police have accused 22-year-old Deonte Carraway of using students at the elementary school he volunteered at to create child porn during school hours.
Police were notified by a relative of a victim after they found a nude photo on the child's cell phone that had been sent to Carraway via the "Kik" messenger app.
During their investigation, police found about 40 videos showing children between the ages of 9-13 performing sexual acts on each other or alone at Carraway's direction.
Carraway admitted to making the videos and was arrested on 10 counts of felony child pornography. Police believe Carraway sexually abused some of the children so they tacked on 10 counts of sexual abuse of a minor and second-degree sexual offense. More charges are likely, according to police.
Police believe Carraway, who is also listed as the head of youth ministries at Zion Praise, produced more videos at the Glenarden Municipal Center, the Theresa Banks Memorial Aquatic Center and some private homes.
Some parents are not surprised by the accusations, saying Carraway was "fishy" and wishing they would have said something sooner.…
James VanCallis Found Guilty Of Murdering 14-Year-Old April MillsapFebruary 9, 2016 at 11:01 am by Morbid
ARMADA, MI — It only took a jury six hours to find 34-year-old James VanCallis guilty of the attempted rape and murder of 14-year-old April Millsap along a popular hiking trail.
We first reported on Millsap when she went missing in 2014 after going for a walk with the family dog. Hours after sending her boyfriend a text that read: "I nearly got kidnapped OMFG," some joggers found her body in a drainage ditch along the Macomb Orchard Trail.
Millsap's shorts and underwear were around her ankles, and her shoes had been removed. Her cause of death would later be determined to be blunt head trauma and asphyxia due to neck compression someone stomping on the girl's neck, face and chest.
There were no witnesses to the murder, but people reported seeing a man in the area on a motorcycle wearing a black helmet. Going through the physical and electronic evidence they had, along with eyewitness testimony, investigators identified their suspect.
"Law enforcement took great care to follow every tip and every lead to its conclusion," County Prosecutor Eric Smith said.…
Joshua James Accused Of Tossing Alligator Through Wendy's Drive-thru WindowFebruary 9, 2016 at 7:58 am by Morbid
ROYAL PALM BEACH, FL – Joshua James is facing a couple of charges after 23-year-old tossed an alligator through a Wendy's drive-thru window.
Back in October, James pulled up to the drive-thru window of a Wendy's after placing his order. When the server turned around after giving James his drink, James gave them something back.
According to a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission incident report, James reached in the back of his truck and grabbed a 3-and-a-half long alligator that he then tossed through the drive-thru window.
It took a few months, but investigators finally figured out James' identity and took him into custody on Monday. He reportedly admitted to picking the alligator up from the side of the road before bringing it to the Wendy's.
James has been charged with aggravated assault and unlawful possession and transportation of an alligator. As for the alligator, it was released in a nearby canal and presumably doing fine.
James' mother told reporters that her kid was not violent and the stunt was just a prank.…
Derek Lawson Accused Of Raping Woman, Repeatedly Stabbing Her VaginaFebruary 6, 2016 at 5:21 pm by Morbid
CLEARWATER, FL – Derek Lawson is behind bars after the 26-year-old was accused of raping a woman before repeatedly stabbing her vagina.
According to police, Lawson kidnapped a woman then proceeded to beat and choke her until she passed out. Afterwards, he brutally raped the woman and used a sharpened object to "repeatedly stab her vagina."
The woman managed to get help after Lawson left her for dead. She required emergency surgery after the attack to repair the multiple cuts and stab wounds she had suffered.
Lawson was picked up on Thursday and charged with kidnapping with bodily harm, sexual battery with a deadly weapon and attempted felony murder. He is being held at the Pinellas County jail with no bond.
As you might have suspected, based on his current charges, this is not Lawson's first run-in with the law. He was arrested in 2014 on similar charges of kidnapping and sexually battering women, and has spent time in jail for marijuana possession and reckless driving.…
Video Captures 8-Year-Old Attempting To Rob Grocery Store At GunpointFebruary 6, 2016 at 4:43 pm by Morbid
WEST PALM BEACH, FL – Video surveillance footage captured the moment an 8-year-old boy tried robbing a Florida grocery store at gunpoint.
The boy walked into King Foods and Meat Bazaar Wednesday morning wearing a motorcycle helmet with a sweater obscuring part of his face.
"He went through the entry door and very quietly, very confidently," the clerk says. "He was wearing like a motorcycle helmet, and he was wearing a sweater over his mouth. He was only showing his eyes."
The kid was hiding a handgun that he pulled out and pointed at cashier. "Give me the fucking money," the boy allegedly demanded. Another employee saw what was happening and quickly apprehended the kid.
"All of a sudden I'm so shocked. I don't know if it's a real gun or if it's a fake gun, but my priority is to take it away from him because I don't know. I just turned his wrist and took it out from his hand. At that point, the other coworker of mine grabbed him," said the clerk.…

CHICAGO, IL – Not a lot of details on this yet, but Chicago police say six people, including a child, were found murdered in a home Thursday afternoon. I am sure some of the following details will change as more information is released.
Police discovered the bodies after being called to the home to perform a well-being check after a co-worker of one of the victim's called to report they had not been at work for the last two days.
When police arrived, they could see a body from outside of the home and made entry. Once inside, they found five more bodies. The identities of the victims have not been released, but police said the victims were four men, one woman and a 12-year-old child.
According to reports, some of the victims had been stabbed to death, while others were fatally shot.
One neighbor said the family that lives at the home had been there for at least three years and included a woman with two sons, who were grade-school age; and her parents.…
Grocery Store Worker Dies After She's Pulled Into Industrial MixerFebruary 4, 2016 at 12:29 pm by Morbid
SALT LAKE, UT – A 45-year-old employee at a Reams Food Store was killed yesterday morning after she was pulled into an industrial mixer.
Investigators say Carmen "Jackie" Lindhardt was using an industrial-sized bakery mixing machine inside the store when she was "caught up in the machinery, the augers," said Sandy Police Sgt. Dean Carriger.
"It was possibly some loose clothing, or she might have reached into the machine for an unknown reason and gotten caught," said Carriger. "We're trying to determine the exact cause at this point."
Regardless of how she was pulled into the machine, a co-worker heard her screams and immediately shut off the mixer. Unfortunately, it was too late for Lindhardt and the mother of one was pronounced dead at the scene.
We have reported on a slew of horrific ways people have died while doing their job, including getting pulled into a wood chipper; suffocating inside a cryochamber; cooked inside an industrial tuna steamer; drowning in cow shit, pinto beans or chocolate; being chewed up inside meat grinders; getting stuck inside industrial dryers; flattened by paper rolling machines; and dying from exploding beer kegs.…
Five-Year-Old Andrea Debruhl Died While Playing On School Monkey BarsFebruary 4, 2016 at 8:41 am by Morbid
COVINGTON, GA – Police say that 5-year-old Andrea Debruhl died from accidental asphyxiation while playing on the monkey bars at her elementary school.
Debruhl was playing on the monkey bars during recess at Newton County Theme School when she slipped and her body became wedged between the bars.
Although there were other children playing nearby, along with teachers monitoring the playground, Debruhl was left with her feet dangling until she slowly asphyxiated herself.
When she was found, school officials and responding officers performed CPR on Debruhl, but it was too late. She was pronounced dead after being taken to the hospital.
Her death was ruled accidental on Wednesday, but the investigation is ongoing. Police say they don't anticipate any criminal charges to be filed, but that decision will be up to the district attorney.
The Newton County School District released the following statement on Wednesday:
"We are struggling to comprehend the heartbreaking accident that occurred Monday afternoon and are grieving over the loss of such a beautiful little girl.…
Registered Sex Offender Caught Performing Sex Acts On 3-Year-Old GirlFebruary 4, 2016 at 8:08 am by Morbid
SAINT PETERSBURG, FL – Police have arrested 50-year-old Bernard Jones after his girlfriend caught him performing a sex act on her 3-year-old daughter.
The incident happened just before midnight last Tuesday when a woman walked into her daughter's bedroom and caught her boyfriend, Jones, performing a sex act on her daughter.
The woman yelled for her teenage son who helped his mother take Jones to the ground. Jones managed to break free after biting the teen and flee the scene. The mother called police, who would find Jones at a nearby home.
Jones was arrested and charged with capital sexual battery, lewd and lascivious molestation on a child under 12, and aggravated battery. This is just par for the course for Jones, a registered sex offender who has already shown he should've been put in the ground a long time ago.
He was arrested in 1990 for entering the bedroom window of a 10-year-old girl and sexually assaulting her. Then, in 2001, he was convicted of sexual battery against a child under 12 and kidnapping.…
Couple Charged With Beating Death of 3-Month-Old BabyFebruary 3, 2016 at 10:21 am by Morbid
BURKE COUNTY, NC – Police have arrested 20-year-old Nicholas Clark and 24-year-old Brittany Hefner after they say they beat their 3-month-old baby to death.
Police responded to the couple's home after receiving a call about a baby that had stopped breathing. First responders performed CPR on the infant before rushing him to the hospital, along with his twin brother.
Staff at Brenner Children's Hospital in Winston Salem found that both boys had been abused. One was admitted in stable condition, while the other was admitted in critical condition and would die on Tuesday.
According to court documents, the baby died from an assault that caused "serious bodily injury, bleeding on the brain and neck injury." The documents go on to say that both Clark and Hefner were responsible for the injures both boys suffered.
Hefner and Clark were initially arrested and charged with felony child abuse on Monday and are each being held on $75,000 bond. Additional charges are probably pending following their son's death.…
Xiao Ying Zhou Accused Of Hitting Woman With Car, Dragging Her For Nearly Three MilesFebruary 2, 2016 at 2:18 pm by Morbid
BOSTON, MA – Police have arrested 45-year-old Xiao Ying Zhou after she allegedly hit a woman and then dragged her underneath her car for nearly three miles.
According to police, Zhou struck a 56-year-old man and his 48-year-old wife as they crossed the road early Monday morning. The man was treated at the scene but his wife was dragged away by Zhou's SUV as she drove from the scene.
Zhou drove two miles down Interstate 93 with the poor woman stuck underneath her vehicle before stopping. Zhou's lawyer says his client was not aware that she had run over anyone until she found the woman underneath her car and tried to help.
"She is innocent, according to what she told me," said her court-appointed lawyer, Jose A. Vincenty. "She was driving, thought the car was operating in a strange way; she pulled out at the exit and at that particular point in time saw the person and tried to assist."
Police and people who tried stopping Zhou say that's a crock of shit.…
Four Norman North High School Wrestlers Charged With Raping Two TeammatesFebruary 2, 2016 at 8:28 am by Morbid
NORMAN, OK – Four Norman North High School wrestlers have been charged with sexually assaulting two younger teammates on a school bus.
Officials with the school said the incident happened on Jan 9 as the school's junior varsity wrestling team was returning from a tournament.
According to court documents, three wrestlers restrained a 16-year-old at the back of the bus and used their fingers to sexually assault him over his clothing.
Afterwards, four wrestlers did something similar with a 12-year-old teammate, but this time they had condoms over their fingers.
When the bus arrived back at school, the teens tackled the younger boy in the parking lot and assaulted him again between two parked cars. They were stopped when the victim's parents arrived to pick him up.
After police finished with their investigation, 18-year-old Tanner Shipman was charged with first-degree rape by instrumentation by force and fear and two counts of first-degree rape by instrumentation of a victim under the age of 14.
Two 17-year-olds and a 16-year-old were all charged with rape by instrumentation and two counts of rape by instrumentation of a victim under the age of 14.…
Day Care Director Charged With Child Abuse After Being Caught On FIlm Battering ChildFebruary 1, 2016 at 8:22 pm by Morbid
CLEREMONT, FL – The director of a Clermont day care center has been arrested after they received cellphone video of her smacking a 4-year-old with stuffed animals before picking him up and dropping him face down.
The director, 41-year-old Kimberly Reid, was arrested at the facility on Friday. According to a state child-protective investigator, the abuse occurred over a three-week period "without regard for the child's safety or mental health."
Reid told investigators that she knew the video looked bad, but that "it's not what it appears to be." She said that her hitting the boy with the stuffed animals and dropping him on his face was just her playing rough with him.
It's obvious that whatever she was doing, a co-worker did not feel it was "rough" play and decided to get some hidden video and turn her in. Police agreed and have charged Reid with child abuse. Officials say there is no evidence that any other children at the facility were being abused.
As of today, a sign on the facility stated the day care was temporarily closed and the owner of the facility said they plan on giving up the day care's license.…
Ohio Seminary Student Accused Of Trying To Have Sex With Baby In TijuanaFebruary 1, 2016 at 2:51 pm by Morbid
CLEVELAND , OH – Joel Wright, a 23-year-old seminary student, was been accused of trying to have sex with a baby in Tijuana.
Investigators say the former Pontifical College Josephinum student first tried to adopt a child from Mexico in 2014, but was unsuccessful. A year later, the 23-year-old made contact with the same person and eventually admitted he wanted to have sex with a girl under the age of 3 and film it.
Federal agents were notified and they continued their conversation with Wright online, posing as a Mexican tour guide. A deal was eventually made in which Wright would fly to Tijuana and have sex with an infant and a 4-year-old girl – acts he described in explicit messages to the agents.
Wright was arrested after landing in San Diego where he thought he was to meet the tour guide before continuing to Tijuana. He had $2,000 in cash and was carrying baby clothes and a baby bottle in his luggage.
Wright has been charged with travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct and aggravated sexual abuse of a child.…
Two Virginia Tech Students Arrested In Relation To Murder Of 13-Year-Old Nicole LovellFebruary 1, 2016 at 11:53 am by Morbid
BLACKSBURG, VA – Police have arrested two Virginia Tech student in connection to the abduction and murder of 13-year-old Nicole Lovell.
According to Lovell's parents, their daughter pushed a dresser against her bedroom door and climbed out a window last Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
Since she did not take the liver medication she has to take daily, it is assumed that Lovell believed she would be returning home before her family woke up.
Unfortunately, she never did and she never will.
On Saturday, her body was found 60 miles away in North Carolina. Before the day was over, police would arrest David Eisenhauer, an 18-year-old Virginia Tech student, and charged him with Lovell's abduction and murder.
There hasn't been a lot of details surrounding how investigators honed in on Eisenhauer, but police did say that Lovell and Eisenhauer "were acquainted" and that Eisenhauer "used this relationship to his to abduct the 13-year-old and then kill her."
But Eisenhauer wasn't the only Virginia Tech student police would arrest. They also apprehended Natalie Keepers, a 19-year-old freshman from Maryland.…
Woman Using Loudspeaker To Promote Store Fatally Shot By Aggravated DrunkJanuary 28, 2016 at 10:15 am by Morbid
MOSCOW – A woman using a loudspeaker to promote a clothing store was shot to death by a drunk man who was sick of listening to her.
Anna Nosova, 25, was hired to help lure customers into a clothing store near the Lyublino metro station.
This tactic aggravated some of the residents who lived nearby, but not nearly as much as it aggravated 58-year-old Sergei Galakhov, who lived above the clothing store.
The nuclear engineer had been fired the day before and was drinking when he became increasingly aggravated by Nosova's use of a loudspeaker to advertise the shop's wares.
So instead of asking her to stop, Galakhov shot the woman dead from his apartment as she stood on the sidewalk. Nosova's horrified co-workers carried her into the clothing store, but she was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.
Police arrived and spoke with Galakhov, who confessed to taking the law into his own hands and shooting Nosova without any warning. He was taken into custody on suspicion of murder and is facing 15 years in prison if convicted.…

Skip to comments.Boise State projected as BCS No. 1
Posted on 10/11/2010 11:45:55 AM PDT by rhema
Six weeks into the college football season and one week before the first Bowl Championship Series standings are released, there are 13 unbeaten teams in all three polls.
So who'd be the BCS' No. 1 if the standings came out today? Would it be consensus No. 1 Ohio State, the top team in The Associated Press, USA Today and Harris polls? Or maybe fellow unbeaten Oregon, ranked No. 2 and earning first-place votes in all three polls?
According to the projection of ESPN's Brad Edwards, it's consensus No. 3 Boise State.
According to the projections, the No. 1 Buckeyes would place fifth in the BCS standings, percentage points behind Oklahoma.
1. Boise State .913
2. Oregon .863
4. Oklahoma .8425
5. Ohio State .8421
7. Nebraska .777
8. Auburn .744
9. Michigan State .642
10. Alabama .634
Edwards projects the unbeaten Broncos, the highest-ranked team from a non-automatic qualifying conference, as the top team in the standings by a comfortable margin, followed by Oregon.

As a big Buckeye fan, I'm fine with this early season projection. Buckeyes need to take of business and things will work out as they should.
Over—rated. (chant with me).
Yeah. Right up until Nov. 20th.
We're waiting for you!
Perhaps one thing going for THE Ohio State University is the BCS Championship Game is in Glendale AZ. Glendale, AZ is technically north of the I-10, hee hee.
That whole list will get re-shuffled in the next 4 weeks.
Were you "waiting" for us the last 6 years? (8 of the last 9 years)?
Both Wisconsin and Iowa will be tough, no argument from me there. And Iowa will be tougher than Wisconsin. But even when Ohio State should beat Wisconsin, they usually find a way to lose the game.
(eyes rolling)
There is no apostrophe in "Buckeyes."
(eyes rolling)
There is no apostrophe in Buckeyes.
Yep. Just don't be "waiting" like for Arizona.
Yeah, I know. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!
Isn't their strength of schedule probably at the best it will be as their remaining schedule plays out and isn't that a BCS computer factor?
Some of these teams have a point, but BCS conferences were decided by the beatings they take game after game.
I almost feel sorry for Alabama (I said almost) playing teams for the next X weeks that had byes before playing them.
All the whining about Boise State surprises me. If the heavyweights at schools like Ohio State, Texas, Florida, etc. weren't refusing to schedule Boise State, maybe those who make the "Boise State's schedule is so weak" argument might sound a little less like a bunch of whiny girls. Obviously, if Ohio State thought they could beat Boise so easily, they'd schedule them. Everyone knows Boise State has offered to play anyone, anywhere. Go Broncos! I hope they blow the lid off the BCS good old boys' club.
Boise would be 2nd in the Big 10, but I'd like to see them play some good teams instead of the palookas on their schedule.
After seeing that news why do I suddenly have the urge to go out and eat some cupcakes?
if they played the entire B10 schedule I don't think they would be 2nd.
Even if it's required that BCS schools play BS - that still doesn't make a season.
let them join a conference - someone should have to take them.
That is what the big conference cry babies say all the time. What does Boise St do about it? Just win. Look at their bowl game record.
The real reason the BCF conferences dont want a true tournament is they can lock out the Boise St's and TCU's of the world, keep all the money and prestige for themselves. But, if, by some miracle because the big boys will do everything they can do to lock them out, Boise St does win the mythical national championship the outcry for a tourney (from the big school that gets locked out) may get to be too much and we may get a real national championship.
I will take Boise St and the points in the mythical national championship.
OSU, Nebraska, Texas, et al would gladly schedule Boise State, except Boise insists on a "home and away" two-fer. Sorry, big schools aren't going to fly their team out to play on smurf field in front of 143 people. Not going to happen.
Boise would own the little ten this year.
I think TCU has been more impressive than Boise State.
I also think Nebraska, should they go unbeaten, should be in the BCS title game. You don't go into Manhattan and put a licking on Kansas State like that, unless you're damn good.
Why should Ohio State play the big time teams every week, when these little schools play high school schedules and then claim they should have the title? What a farce.
I don't know if Boise State beats Nevada.
Yup, all the time. And they always schedule division 2 cupcakes in the beginning and refuse to schedule teams like Boise St. And when they do, they will not travel to be a visitor in no uncertain terms.
Mountain Dad, put down that Mountain Dew. It's affecting your thought processes. Go Bucks!!!!
The schedules are made three, four and sometimes five years in advance.
Unless, and until, Boise can get routinely onto the schedule of top twenty teams, they are S.O.L. As for this season, they have to sit and eat their cupcake schedule and hope against hope that Virginia Tech and Oregon State do not lose any more games (both have two losses already).
Boise State will fade from the top based on their schedule. They'll have to content themselves with another BCS game, but no ticket to THE game.
Hmmm, why didn't you mention U of Miami, who was a powerhouse when Ohio State scheduled them about 5 years ago?
If you want the "Big Boys" to come play in your house, build a stadium big enough to at least pay for the trip.(and while you're at it, get green turf, nobody wants to play on that blue turf either)
They need to play in a better conference. And I think they know that.
Same with the Horned Frogs.....
I'd love to see...TCU, and Boise State play in the Big 12.
Yup. Come November 20 Michigan is our Bitch Again!
In my husbands never ending quest to leave the socialist republic of WASHINGTON, he has been offered a position in Boise/Kuna area. We are going to be visiting the area soon. What is it like, It has been about 20 years since we have been to Boise. Pros/Cons of living there, how is the gang situation??
This just in....Florida just ran another dive play.
Boise State? Yeah...they've played some real POWERHOUSES so far. Toledo, New Mexico State, San Jose State...a killer schedule. The Buckeyes play Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan, Penn State through the rest of the season, just a little more of a test than Wyoming or the Virginia Tech team Boise beat 33-30. Sorry BCS, but nonsense won't sell.
Boise State?
We'll see at the end of the season. Enjoy.
Oregon State would have beaten TCU if TCU hadn't decided to have the roof of Cowboys Stadium opened on a miserably hot day. Pretty chicken-shit if you ask me.
Had I been Mike Reilly, I would have told TCU that the game would not start until the roof was closed and the A/C turned on.
If 'ifs' and 'buts' were candy and nuts, we'd all have a Merry Christmas.

Make It
Vacations are coming up. Kids will be going off to college or camp. Or maybe you know someone who has just landed a first big job and apartment. Make them a simple sewing kit in 10 minutes with a Mason jar.
Look for the true canning jars with the classic lid in two pieces. You'll make the pin cushion on the lid by gluing a larger ball of fiber fill than you think you'll need. Cover the fiber fill with colorful fabric and create a cushion for sewing pins.
Push the padded insert into the lid band and trim the excess fabric.
Then fill the canning jar with small scissors, thread, a few needles, buttons, safety pins and other quick fixes like hem tape. Done and ready for gift giving.

There's nothing quite like unwinding before bed after a long day with a nice, warm, high-pressure shower. Or maybe you're a morning shower-taker, and that steamy stream of hot water is just the jolt you need to kick off your day. But by the same token, a bad shower experience can certainly get under your skin after a while.
When you have tried the common household tricks and your water pressure still is not improving your water pressure check out these quick tips that might help you optimize your shower experience.
Take out your flow restrictor
One of the most common shower-related problems is weak water pressure. When your shower stream is too gentle, it makes the task of rinsing off all those suds a little more time consuming.
An easy solution to improve shower pressure is to remove the flow restrictor. This is a fairly straightforward process that can be done with a few household tool such as pliers or a pipe wrench to disassemble the shower head.
You will know you found the restrictor when you see a white plastic disk with a small hole in the middle of it. The way it restricts your waterflow is that the white disk only allows water to flow through the small hole in the middle. By removing this you can improve and increase your water flow and pressure.
While removing the restrictor will quickly improve water pressure, it will come at a price. For instance, your water bill could increase significantly over the course of a month and you'll also notice substantially increased humidity in the bathroom during showers, which may damage paint, wall paper, mirrors and plumbing fixtures over time.
Another alternative for homes that inherently have low water pressure is to invest in an amplifying shower head. These are water efficient and easy to install, and they will help you make the most of your shower experience.
Get some new hardware
Unusual fluctuations in shower temperature can be extremely unpleasant. No one wants their relaxing evening ruined with a cold shower, or to be unexpectedly greeted by scalding water on a hot summer afternoon.
Often, temperature fluctuations are caused by the use of another appliance such as a toilet or a washing machine. By installing a pressure-balancing valve it would ensure that the lapse in cold water pressure wouldn't cause the shower stream to become too hot. It does this by obstructing the hot water valve to balance out the pressure.
Unfortunately, if this isn't the problem, it could be a sign that there is an issue with your water heater. If you seem to only be able to take half of a shower before the cold creeps in, you might not have a large enough tank. Alternatively, there could be a maintenance issue, such as a broken pilot burner, or something else.
When all else fails, call in a professional. They'll help you identify the problem so that you can make the most of your shower.
Areas that have a lot of rainfall, are close to a floodplain or have a high water table are likely familiar with a sump pump. These appliances are used to send water away from a house to a storm drain or drywell, preventing basements and lower parts of the house from flooding. Sump pumps will turn on more often in some areas, while in others, they may not turn on at all. However, it's always good to have a battery backup for the pump. Let's take a look at why a battery backup is so necessary for your sump pump:
Likelihood of risk
Homeowners should determine the potential for flooding to gauge if the battery backup is right for their needs. Power outages can happen during strong storms, taking out the sump pump. If you have these situations a few times a year or even once a year, a battery backup will be worth the investment. This will eliminate the cost of repairs, water removal and other issues that come with flood damage. A battery backup will decrease your risk and give you peace of mind that your property is protected from problems.
It's important to note that an aging pump can also have a higher chance of failure without the need of a power outage. If your pump is 10 years or older, it's high time to invest in a new one. If your sump pump is over 5 years old, a battery backup will come in handy to ensure that your aging appliance comes back online quickly.
Easy to maintain
Battery backups for sump pumps have a number of benefits, including the fact that they are relatively easy to maintain. It's simple to install a battery backup, and that they will work even when there's no water supply. However, the battery water levels and terminals must all be checked on a regular basis. It's important to note that a battery can also run down before the power comes back, so it will be crucial to choose a solution that has the right capacity for your home. For example, if you have a pump that runs once a minute, you'll require a different battery capacity than a pump that runs every five minutes. These differences will play a big part in what battery is installed and how long you can expect to keep your pump operational.
Warns you of danger
The sophistication of battery backups for sump pumps is increasing to tell homeowners when to expect danger as well as when support is required. Some solutions monitor battery status, test themselves and alert homeowners in signs of trouble. This type of interfacing adds a layer of oversight that will be important to protecting your house and ensuring that your property remains dry. If your sump pump fails, and you have a finished basement, or important objects in your crawl space, how much would it cost to recover from a flooding event? A battery backup pays for itself in this regard, as it can notify you to prevent damage.
A sump pump isn't necessarily something that every house requires, but it has saved countless homes from the dangers of flooding and water damage. For those that are in higher risk of these events, a battery backup will be essential. With this, homeowners can have peace of mind as these appliances are easy to maintain, and many of them will sound the alarm to minimize potential damage. Call your Roto-Rooter expert today for a sump pump consultation or any questions that you may have about these appliances.
When you buy a home, one of the first things you should do is check your water heater and see how long ago it was installed. Beyond that, what are some things you may not realize about this important appliance right when you move in?
Here are three things you should know about your water heater:
When should you replace it?
Typically speaking, homeowners should replace their water heaters every 10 to 13 years. There may be some hidden costs associated with replacing your water heater, including the mount, venting system, drain pan beneath the heater and the supply pipes themselves. Installation also comes with a price tag. Depending on what kind of unit you're installing, you may be able to do it yourself, but be extra careful and don't forget to call a plumber if you find yourself in over your head.
Look out for signs of failure
When your water heater is getting ready to fail, you may experience rust in your water or hear rumbling noises coming from inside the fixture. The rumbling or knocking sound is created by layers of sediment that have coagulated and hardened in the water heater. This sediment can make your water heater less efficient and cause more wear to the tank, eventually leading to system failure. If you notice any leaks, sediment could be the culprit.
Be more efficient
It's important to make sure your water heater is using electricity and water in an efficient manner, and not just for your bills' sake. The easiest way to do this is to invest in a newer appliance, which could operate about 20 percent more efficiently and save $700 more over the life of the unit than older models. However, replacement is not always an option. One way to improve efficiency is to check some of the working parts of your water heater, like the TPR valve and anode rod. In addition, you can drain the aforementioned sediment out of the tank in order to strengthen the longevity of the appliance.
There's still so much to learn about your water heater. If you think your appliance may be experiencing some difficulties, give the plumbing professionals at your local St. Paul Roto-Rooter a call today for more information and to schedule an assessment.
Pipes, like most other things in your home, won't last forever, even if they're made from quality materials. Whether you've been living in your house for years now or are in the market for a new one, the condition of the plumbing is certainly something to consider. After all, you don't want to enter a home to find out you have to shell out to fix the pipework right away. With that in mind, let's take a look at a few signs that it's time to replace your pipes:
The older your pipes are, the more likely you are to have issues with your plumbing down the road. For newer houses, you won't have to worry about this one too much right now, but for those of you with homes that have been around a while, you'll want to look into what types of pipes you actually have. Brass and galvanized steel supply lines as well as cast iron drain lines can last 80 to 100 years. Copper supply lines come in at 70 to 80 years, and PVC drain lines are the most fragile, only able to last about 25 to 40 years. It's important to note that proper maintenance, or lack thereof, will also have a significant effect on how long your pipes will work, but these guidelines can keep you aware of when to check them.
Besides age, any irregularities in your exposed pipes can be early signs of trouble. If tubing displays, flaking, stains, dimpling or discoloration, it's likely time to call in a professional to inspect it. This rings especially true if you detect any leaks in your system, as a few sporadic leaks can lead to bigger problems throughout your home if not addressed quickly. Water color can be a sign of pipe decay. These pipes will need to be replaced as soon as possible to prevent leaks and other issues.
Outside forces
Pipes that extend outside of your home should also be factored in when considering replacement. Sewer and supply lines can be root-bound or crushed. Certain types of pipes are also more susceptible to root intrusion and corrosion as well as plugs developed from putting items like diapers or tennis balls down the drain. If you suspect that your pipes have succumbed to a clog or if you have a home with older pipes, call a plumbing professional to run a camera line inspection. An expert will bring all the necessary tools and expertise to identify the problem and fix it appropriately the first time.
Remodeling opportunities
If you're remodeling or have been wanting to change things up, replacing your pipes may be the perfect time to do so. Taking renovations as an opportunity to inspect and replace plumbing lines if need be is a convenient option, most of the time. When opening up your walls and floors, a pipe evaluation could save you from extra costs down the road, and ensure that your system is working appropriately. In addition, if you do need to replace your plumbing at this time, a plumber is going to be on-site for the renovations, making the pipe fixes a bargain.
Plumbing pipes are an essential part of any home, but they have their weaknesses and degrade over time. These signs will help you determine when's the right time to change your pipes and when your system needs to be inspected. Call your local Roto-Rooter plumbing professional for a camera line inspection, pipe replacement and any other plumbing issue.
First things first: Assess the situation
Whether you're returning home after fleeing a flooding incident caused by a storm or an overflowing river, or you've gotten back from a recent vacation to a water-logged basement, the first thing to do following a flood is to assess the damage. You should immediately look for any indicators of structural damage to the home. If you suspect that any utilities – gas, oil, electricity, sewage leaks, etc. – have been impacted, contact the respective utility company.
If you must enter the water for any reason, be sure to wear waders or waterproof boots that are higher than the water level. Even if the power is out, disable all fuse connections to reduce the risk of electrocution should it come back on. Use a flashlight for visibility. Remember, your top priority is safety. Finally, make sure your insurance agent has been made aware of the event.
Begin the cleanup
If the flood water is from a sanitary source such as a sink, a broken water supply line or rain and has been standing for less than 48 hours, it could be a do-it-yourself job. If this is the case, the first priority should be to get all of the water out. If it sits for 48 hours or more, it can become gray water, at which point it will need to be handled professionally.
Assuming that the water accumulation isn't extensive enough that it will need to be pumped out, you can start by using a mop to soak up some of the excess water. Once any pooling and puddles have been cleared away, you can set up a wet-dry vacuum cleaner. It's safer to do it this way since there will be less water, and a reduced chance of the appliance's power cord causing a shock.
Know when to call a professional
To reiterate, if the water has been standing for 48 hours or more, call a professional. Also, if the source of the leak is discharge from a household appliance such as a dishwasher or a washing machine, the resulting water will be classified as gray water. This demands professional treatment. Last but not least, gray water that has been allowed to soak for 48 hours may become black water, at which point it is extremely dangerous. Other sources of black water include overflowing rivers, ocean water or streams. Black water contains dangerous pathogens and should never be handled alone.
If you ever find yourself in any of the above situations, or if you're just overwhelmed and need a helping hand, contact your Palm Bay Roto-Rooter right away.
Manchester's arid climate provides those who live there with hundreds of beautiful sunny days a year, which locals take full advantage of. However, as summer comes to a close in Manchester means one other thing, too: It's time to do some cleaning. As you're giving your home a thorough scrub down, it's a good idea to consider changes you can make and steps you can take to upgrade and maintain the plumbing fixtures in your home. Maintaining your plumbing will extend its lifespan, but it can also save you money! Take a look at these three tips for saving money with plumbing maintenance:
Insulate your water heater
The first step to saving money with your plumbing? Take a look at your water heater. Just like with your thermostat, lowering your water heater by just a few degrees can help you save a little bit of money each month. Make sure it's set no higher than 120 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also buy a water-heater blanket - this will insulate the water, which means the machine won't have to spend so much energy reheating the water every time you turn on a shower or faucet.
Replace fixtures with low-flow versions
From your toilet to your showerhead to your faucets, replacing old fixtures with up-to-date, low-flow versions can help you save an enormous amount of water and, in turn, a great deal of money. The best part? Showerheads and faucets are relatively inexpensive and easy to replace yourself, so switching them out is a lot simpler and cheaper than you may think. To replace an old toilet (which can save thousands of gallons a month), you'll want to call in a Manchester Roto-Rooter professional to get some assistance.
Routinely check your drains and sump pumps
Manchester's springs and summers are usually pretty dry, but when it does rain, it can come down hard. If any part of your home floods, this can lead to terrible water damage that's extremely costly to repair. So, this tip is about prevention: Routinely inspect your drains and basement sump pump to make sure they're clear and working properly. Just pour a couple of buckets of water into the sump pump, and see if it turns on and discharges the water - if it does, it's working.
This summer's been quite a hot one, especially for Arkansas. If you're the kind of person that doesn't relish the idea of melting in your own home, you've most likely had the air conditioning cranked up for the past few months, which means your energy bill's been higher than you'd like it to be. Sadly, there isn't much you can do about the heat, but there are other ways that you can earn back that savings. Let's take a look:
The lawn is a point of pride in American culture. Having green, well-cut grass set around your house shows your neighbors that you care both about yourself and how you're reflected in the community. However, ensuring that your lawn is properly watered can be extremely difficult when you're competing with one of the hottest summers in American history.
This is why it's crucial that you water your lawn at the right time. A lot of people simply bring the hose out whenever they have the chance, and that usually occurs sometime in the late afternoon. The problem here is that doing so pretty much ensures that your grass won't be getting all the water you put down, as the sun is going to evaporate a lot of it. Water your grass when the temperature is low and the sun isn't beating down on your lawn, generally in the morning or late evening.
Steaming hot showers are great to wake up to when it's cold out, but the summer's heat demands a cool shower to get the day started right. Even if you do like a warm shower during the summer, you probably don't need your water heater turned up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. In fact, most people really only need their machine set to 120 degrees.
So why is this such a big deal? Well, having a water heater turned up to an extremely high temperature is going to result in two kinds of heat losses: consumption and reduced standby losses. The second is the most interesting here, as it denotes the amount of heat lost to the air surrounding the water heater.
Summer means extra laundry, especially when that Tennessee air gets a little muggy. This means your washing machine needs to be working at peak efficiency, and summer's as good a time as any to ensure your appliance is functioning properly. Make sure to check the hoses in the back for any leaks or punctures that could lead to additional water loss. On top of this, if you have a front loaded washing machine, take a look at the door to discover if it might pop open while cleaning a load.

Minneapolis plumbers deal with a number of problems on a daily basis, from clearing out grease clogs to repairing broken pipes. However, one of the most common plumbing issues they see are those relating to sewer-line backups. And often, in Minneapolis, it's because tree roots have punctured a drain pipe and are blocking the lines completely. In these instances, and many others, plumbers often choose to perform a camera line inspection.
Video camera line inspections allow plumbers to clearly see what may be causing an issue in your home, without them having to dig trenches in your yard or damage your landscape in any other way. Not sure why you'd need a camera line inspection? Here are three possible reasons:
Your drains are slow or backing up
Of course, the typical reason for a camera line inspection is because a homeowner is having trouble with their toilets, sinks or showers backing up or draining too slowly. In these instances, blockages in the sewer system are often the problem, whether they're because of those tree roots, non-biodegradable items clogging the line or even too much grease buildup. A camera line inspection will help your Minneapolis Roto-Rooter professional find whatever the issue is and develop a plan to fix it quickly.
You need help locating a piece of jewelry or a valuable
Oftentimes, when someone loses a beloved heirloom ring or a valuable diamond earring down a drain, they believe it's gone forever. However, plumbers have been able to retrieve these types of valuables using a camera inspection of the person's drainage pipes. The high-quality video camera is the perfect way to spot something that's made it's way too far into your plumbing to retrieve by yourself.
You're buying a home and want peace of mind
If you're considering putting an offer on a new home, you know how important the inspection is to discover any property issues that aren't immediately apparent. However, these inspections don't typically cover the sewer line. So what happens if you move in and find that you have a bellied or broken pipe that needs to be completely replaced? A camera line inspection can help ease your mind considerably, allowing you to discover any potential or current issues with your sewer and water lines.
Remember: If you have any questions about why a video camera line inspection may be right for you, your local Minneapolis Roto-Rooter is happy to help.
Homeowners often try to fix problems to the best of their abilities to save time and money, but when it comes to plumbing, they can sometimes make the issue worse. Plumbing professionals have the tools and expertise to diagnose and fix a problem before it spiralsout of control. Although it will cost you to have them come out, it's worth it to ensure that your system is functioning appropriately. Here are a few situations that call for a professional touch:
Broken fixtures
Think about your shower at home. Do you have a shampoo rack hanging from the showerhead? Do you regularly use the bathtub spout as a footrest? This is possibly one of the worst things to do because these fixtures cannot handle the amount of weight on them, and can snap off at the threads. If this happens, or you break one of your fixtures through some other method, call in an expert to assess the damage. With any luck, you won't have water spraying from the broken fixture, but if you do, you'll want an expert at your side to calmly and decisively handle the problem.
Super clogged toilet
It's no surprise that people flush items down the pipes that shouldn't be. Normally, in a clogged situation, a plunger is all that's needed. But what if the item that went down the drain was a toy, or a golf ball? Using a plunger in these instances can actually make the problem worse by moving the item further into the waste line. If you have a sneaking suspicion that your kids were being mischievous or are experiencing a super clog, it's time to call in a plumbing expert. They will remove the toilet and retrieve the item, solving your clog issue. Don't attempt to do this yourself. It likely won't be immediately clear how far down the item is, and plumbers have the tools necessary to navigate pipes, identify an obstacle and remove it.
Frozen, leaky or burst pipes
Pipes are complex pieces of infrastructure within a home. You can't really expect to take care of them with gum, duct tape and good luck. For nearly any pipe issue, it's best to call in a plumbing expert. If you detect a leak, for example, you may have to go through walls to reach it. Fortunately, a plumber can easily judge a leak's location, and bring tools like a welding torch to make repairs. This type of item isn't normally something you'll just find in your own toolbox. Similarly, frozen and burst pipes can cause chaos if handled incorrectly. A plumber can help remove the water and make necessary repairs to begin drying out your home.
Something like a faucet or showerhead may be easy enough to install on your own, but for the big boys like a septic tank, tub and other fixtures, rely on a plumber to get the job done. A leak may occur if a fixture isn't matched up correctly with its fittings, for example, and this can create a lot of cost to address the problem. Septic tanks are another big item that could benefit from an expert hand. Any issue with this appliance will create a big stink and will be difficult to handle by yourself. Plumbers can ensure that everything is installed correctly, and that any immediate items are fixed.
There are a wide variety of situations that necessitate professional assistance. When in doubt, call your local plumbing expert at Roto-Rooter.
Our earth has limited resources, and we must all do everything in our power to preserve them. It doesn't matter if you're 4 or 40 years old, there are many meaningful steps you can take to protect the environment. Here are a few water conservation tips for kids.
Turn off the tap
It is great if your little ones are excited to brush their teeth every night, but make sure they are turning off the tap water when they do so and not leave it running. It may not seem like a lot of water is being wasted during this time, but even little steps can go a long way. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, if you turn off the water while brushing your teeth in the morning and at night, you can save up to 8 gallons of water a day! That comes out to about 200 gallons a month. Smart little steps like this add up quickly and are an important part of a household water conservation plan.
Wash the dishes correctly
Odds are your kids have a list of chores to do each day, one of those being doing the dishes. Make sure they're not wasting any water while scrubbing those dirty plates. Instead of letting the tap run, scrape the excess food into the garbage can first so your washing doesn't have to be so vigorous. If the food is stuck, fill the plate, pot or pan up with warm water, and let it soak for a couple of minutes. The hot water should soften the food and make it easier to clean.
Shower, don't take a bath
Although your kids might be used to taking baths, bathing uses up to 70 gallons of water. A shower, on the other hand, only uses about 10 to 15 gallons. Do what's best for the environment, and opt for a shower for your little ones to save water.

I pressed the "87" grade button and pumped the gas. Once the gas finished pumping, I got a receipt and noticed the charge was $3.79 per gallon not $3.57. So I figured it was because I hadn't used the club card. I then took the card, my receipt and debit card to the cashier and explained that I did not get the discounted rate, he then refunded 43 cents! So I questioned why the difference was so low, he looked at the receipt and says- I chose mid-grade, it's $3.79. I of course tried to explain that is not what I chose, I selected the 87 grade on the left- his response was that I must of bumped the mid grade!
Here is where my frustration is fueled (no pun intended), because obviously this is not my first time getting gas nor was it my first time at that gas station. As I went back to my car once I realized the attendant was not going to be of any help, I noticed that the Mid-grade option was highlighted even though my transaction was complete as if it were a default option. There's no way for me to prove that the pump actually pumped Mid-grade gas even though I selected and intended to pay for regular grade gas and in all fairness there's no way to prove (unless there's surveillance of my transaction) I proactively chose regular grade- 87 gas.
This evidence of poor service and an attempt - and successful effort to get the consumer to pay more for gas is ridiculous and yes I feel completely ripped off. I was lured in because of the discounted rate but I guess they assumed I would not pay attention to what was actually paid! I did and this is unacceptable!

Trichomoniasis (cont.)
Trichomoniasis Self-Care at Home
The treatment of choice is antibiotics prescribed by the doctor. In addition to antibiotics, some alternative medicine therapies are available. These therapies have not been shown to be beneficial, and no rigorous scientific evidence supports their use. Home therapy should not be used instead of a doctor's visit and appropriate antibiotics, as this may allow the spread of the condition as well as other harmful sexually transmitted diseases, such as syphilis, HIV, gonorrhea, or chlamydia.

Repede (ラピード Rapiido?) is Yuri Lowell's dog and loyal sidekick. Repede fights with daggers and is constantly carrying a pipe in his mouth, which is a memento of his previous owner, Niren Fedrock, who was killed during the events of the movie, Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike. Repede is the son of Lambert, who Yuri was forced to kill after Lambert was possessed by a monster. As a puppy, Repede already had developed a habit of carrying objects in his mouth, such as bones or sticks. He is the second non-humanoid playable character after Eugene Gallardo from Tales of Rebirth, but the first to walk on four feet.
Appearance and Personality
Repede is friendly around those he trusts and children who like dogs, but dislikes it when approached by people he does not know. It is an ongoing event in which the heroine Estelle wants to pet Repede, but is rejected by him. Repede also carries a chain from his previous owner and uses his previous owner's bodhi blastia for combat.
Fighting Style
Repede is one of the faster, more mobile characters in battle with naturally high agility and skills that place emphasis on running such as Dash, which further increases his speed, in addition to ones that heal HP and TP and prevent staggering during his movement. He is the only character to be able to steal items from opponents with the arte Thievery. He is also an item expert, increasing the effects of items with his passive skills to up to double their effectiveness, and without having to wait to use more, and occasionally without using the item up. Repede's unusually adept ability to use weapons meant for human use is both admired and sometimes made fun of by Yuri and his other companions. The interesting thing about Repede in battle is the fact that he is a dog. Since Repede is very short, several attacks will go over his hitbox completely to negate much of the damage that a character would normally receive.
- In Tales of Zestiria, the left sleeve of Mayvin's jacket has an image with Repede's likeness on it. An attachment called "Fluffy Repede" is also available in the game.
- In Tales of Berseria, a plushie of Repede appears on a Geoboard as part of the game's DLC.

Monday Jan. 12, 2009
(Washington, DC)--Two people briefed on the matter tell The Associated Press that a federal grand jury is investigating whether former pitcher Roger Clemens lied to Congress last year. Both spoke on condition of anonymity because grand jury proceedings are supposed to be secret.
Congress asked the Justice Department to look into whether the seven-time Cy Young Award winner lied last February when he testified under oath at a deposition and a public House hearing that he never took illegal performance-enhancing drugs.
That contradicted the sworn testimony of his former personal trainer Brian McNamee, who said under oath that he injected Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone.
By bringing the case to a grand jury, the Justice Department escalated it from an FBI investigation. A grand jury allow prosecutors to get sworn testimony from witnesses and collect documents.
McNamee's lawyer says his client has not been called as a grand jury witness or received a subpoena but he does expect McNamee to testify again.

Samsung E590
- Small, Compact and Lightweight, Solid features list, 3 megapixel camera with autofocus, Excellent user interface
- Plain design, Small display, Navigation Joystick a little short
Bottom Line
The E590 is without doubt one of the most compact and lightweight handsets currently available on the market. But its plain, matte plastic design means you'll either love it, or hate it.
Price$ 425.00 (AUD)
Weighing a mere 66g, the candybar-style Samsung E590 is one of the smallest and most compact phones currently available on the market. It's a basic-to-mid range handset boasting an impressive feature set, which includes a 3 megapixel camera with autofocus, a music player with an FM radio and Bluetooth. To give it some added prestige the E590 has been designed by Jasper Morisson - a leading industrial designer.
The E590 is a standard tri-band GSM handset. It has reasonable call clarity, with strong volume. The hands-free speakerphone is also loud and clear, and it's easily switched on during a phone call by pressing the joystick when on a call.
The E590 is equipped with a 3 megapixel camera that features auto focus, macro mode and a new feature Samsung dubs Rapid Focus, designed to improve shutter speed. The camera also captures video in MPEG4 format. Performance is average; the shots produced naturally aren't good enough for any sort of serious photography, but they are more than adequate to use as background wallpaper or basic happy snaps. The camera has plenty of options including multi, mosaic and panorama shot modes, effects such as black and white, sepia and negative, 29 picture frames and a three, five or 10 second self-timer.
As is a common trait among Samsung handsets, the E590's user interface is excellent. Despite the joystick being a bit short, navigation is speedy and the menus are well laid out. The 'uPlus' feature remains, offering intuitive navigation that responds to your environment. For example, when you dial a phone number, a small image of Sydney appears in the corner of the screen. This picture changes depending on your location. It also responds to the time of day and changes accordingly; at night the sky will be dark, while during the day it appears blue. Another cool feature occurs when dialling a phone number; upon pressing a number key a paper and pen animation appears and begins to write the numbers as you press them, even including sound effects.
The E590 allows you to create a personalised menu of shortcuts that sits on the main screen. This enables quick access to frequently used menu items, such as calendar, SMS messaging and email. The interface also highlights each selected menu item with a different colour scheme, creating a contrast with the rest of the phone. For security, Samsung's mobile tracker feature is present. When a SIM card in the E590 is replaced, the mobile tracker sends an SMS message to an earlier nominated phone number, revealing the mobile phone number of the new SIM card.
The E590 has Bluetooth and USB 2.0, and the A2DP profile for wireless music streaming. The MP3 player is compatible with MP3, AAC, AAC+ and WMA files, and features basic play list support, repeat and shuffle play modes, a preset equaliser and 3D sound effects - and there is also an FM radio. Sound quality is average and a proprietary headphone jack hinders its use as an MP3 player. Files can be stored on the phone's 85MB internal memory, or a microSD card (not included).
Standard POP3 and IMAP4 email access is offered, as is SMS and MMS messaging with T9 predictive text input, polyphonic and MP3 ring tones and a voice recorder. PIM features are plentiful, with alarm, calendar, memo, world clock, calculator, converter, timer and stopwatch all present.
We didn't know what to think when we first picked up the E590. Measuring 94mm x 42.5mm x 13.5mm, it's certainly light and compact, and it cups beautifully in your hands. It's one of the smallest phones we've reviewed, and weighing in at just 66g is light enough to slide into your pocket and forget about. However, its design is contentious. Finished in a plain, matte-black plastic casing, the E590 looks as minimalist as a piece of paper. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, depending on what your tastes are; it certainly manages to stand out from the competition, but for different reasons than usual. We have mixed feelings about the E590's design; on one hand the plain casing adds a touch of subtle class, but on the other hand the plastic finish doesn't quite justify this phone's asking price.
The good news is, despite the small size of the unit, the controls are relatively well laid out. We would have appreciated a longer five-way navigational joystick, but the rest of the controls (and keypad) feature slightly raised keys that have enough space between them to ensure you don't accidentally press the wrong buttons. The 1.79in display does feel a little cramped though, and it isn't the brightest or clearest display we've seen. It suffers from a poor viewing angle and is difficult to read in direct sunlight.
Battery life is a little below average, with just four hours talk time and up to 200 hours standby time. With moderate use, you'll need to charge the E590 every two nights.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Scholars' Convo: Cosmic Secrets
Fordham University Professor of History Asif Siddiqi will discuss the history of the Soviet space program during the free, public Scholars' Convocation at 11 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 19, in Joe Rosenfield '25 Center, Room 101.
Much of Siddiqi's interests are focused on the history of science and technology, postcolonial science, and its intersections with popular culture. He is a recent winner of the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship, has held an endowed visiting chair at the Smithsonian Institution, and is a leading expert in the history of modern science and technology.
A prolific writer and speaker on Soviet history, Siddiqi serves on the National Research Council Committee on the Future of Human Spaceflight, and is a contributing editor of the journal Technology and Culture. He has written several books, including The Rockets' Red Glare: Spaceflight and the Soviet Imagination, 1857–1957," Sputnik and the Soviet Space Challenge, and The Soviet Space Race with Apollo. His upcoming book from Oxford University Press is titled Soviet Science and the Gulag.
Siddiqi also has been quoted by numerous national media outlets about topics ranging from accidents in space to engineering disasters to the Russian Space Program. He holds a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and a master's degree in economics from Texas A&M University, as well as an M.B.A from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and a Ph.D. in history from Carnegie Mellon University.
Grinnell welcomes and encourages the participation of people with disabilities. Rosenfield Center has accessible parking in the lot to the east. Room 101 is equipped with an induction hearing loop system. You can request accommodations from the event sponsor or Conference Operations and Events.
