a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Hi Sarah, I am looking forward to seeinh your zine. Please send to:
Thomas A. Marino
1095 Pequot Street
New Bedford, MA 02745
Hey, are you still around here? Do you have the same address? I kind of got distracted by life but I'd still like to be penpals if you're into it!
Hey Sarah,
I'm a shitty penpal and haven't written you a letter yet, but I need your current address. I just bought a book of stamps and am ready to send stuff your way. I enjoyed both your zines and I'll tell you more via snail mail. Talk to you soon.
i apologize writing your question back as a post---the Long Haul computer is old and can't do simple functions like respond on the WMZ messages. Hi snooping people!
So homelessness is a nuanced issue. Primarily it is safe to assume that though we all have a degree of choice in our reality in many cases we don't actually have much choice where we end up. Many factors ensure that people remain poor or worse than poor. If you're old, disabled, have a prison record, a mental issue, are not a white male... your chances of finding suitable work that pays well is really nil. Much of the work pays awful, is demaning and is actual murder of the body and spirit. That is the opportunities available to the poor. In that light it would explain why some people want to be free of the system---autonomous. This perspective may help with your housemates the most since this will be an issue people face on a day to day basis.
The guy complaining may have had an unseen issue to compel his shittiness--but more likely he was angry about other issues and he fell victim to kicking at someone he precieves to be weaker than he is. But for both the customer and the manager the relevant question is if the pan handler was being threatening. If not they need to consider the question of public space. Is a community diverse or isn't it. There's plenty of people i don't like but i recognize their soverinty. Maybe some discussion can be had about life style--like how the neighbor to our info shop is so annoyed by our nights of live music that they started calling the police and city inspectors. I like to think that we live in a dense city where people desire homemade culture.(not everyone is a yuppie with children) The music wasn't too loud and often over before midnite...on weekends. Therefore alittle tolerance is in order. We have other neighbors who would probably want us to do more music(and i always thought when yuppie kids grow up they would end up at our events)---how does their needs get a lobby?
The manager probably has too much to deal with and treats a concern about street people reflexivly. They may not want to expend anymore heart and head in their service industry nightmare to break into the bigger questions of diversity of lifestyles or the dysfunctional reality of capitalism and where its all going. You can simply say to the manager (I am a paying customer) the other customer is wrong. It's a public space and the person outside is not behaving in a way against the law so possibly that the customer is acting as a bully. Maybe if you were wealthy enough, had the presence of mind (you're there with housemates) and had the time to go the extra distance:offer the manager to bring the person in and buy them a drink. Then in some way they too are a customer...but more important they could meet each other and develop a repoire. Then future problems can be dealt with subtly...with possible more benefits down the line. Im thinking the manager could give him extra food and the street person can keep an eye on the store--like graffitti or something.
Community takes more time but it is what ultimately sustains us.
I hope that doesn't miss your beat. I'm fresh from swimming---it will be too cold in a couple weeks. I'm about to work on slingshot #114 and i'm planning to show halloween movies in October. I had one beautiful day this week writing letters. I feel i'm so close to catching up on letters. I was just starting to ache about making money this week but i'm finding so much activity and life that the absence of ($8an hour) makes me feel i can make it go some more.
keep on pushing
By the way i do have my own weird issues about being asked for money. When i was a kid the local punks used to preach about always giving homeless money or treating them as humans. As a young adult i started to learn that people cross the line asking--say it in a way where they expect money-and some other problems. I lear
Hey, just wondering if you have any of your ponytail/pedestrian zines left? I just finished a 24 hour zine for the challenge, but I'm going to tweak and refine it this weekend. Trade?
Hello Sarah,
Being an avid pedestrian/ wanderer myself, I am very interested in trading zines with you. If you want, you can drop by and pick a zine of mine I can send to you. I also like sending little surprises in the post, so I think it'll be fun. Hope you are having a nice day when you get this and I hope to hear from you soon.
GOT OUR SHITTY PONYTAILS TODAY! this is awesome! and we have similar musical taste as well! especially between you and dana. we gave the other copy to our friend ellen, she loved it! hope our zine makes it there safe and sound! let us know!
got your letter!!! it absolutely made my day. you write the kind of letters I love! I'm going to start writing back tomorrow. see you in the mail!! <3
Hi Sarah, I would like to be a pen pal with you via email. I am new to making zines i have a few mast
Tomers but have not printed out any yet. Let me know, take good care.
awesome! yay! huh, must be, I thought I read it on your profile, but now I don't see anything... well, that's cool that you do! hahaha. anyway, look forward to hearing back! hope you're having a great night!
me too! this is just the best! and so nice to write to someone so close for once :) it might be a couple days till I get it in the mail, I'm on the verge of finishing a new zine which I'd like to send you too, but I promise it will be on the way soon! :) I hope you're having a lovely day!
oh my gosh! that's hilarious! how great is this! I will write to you asap! and hey, thanks for emailing me, no one ever emails me about stuff. I don't think I use that email anymore, I wrote that zine years ago. Anyway, I'm going to stop typing this and start writing you a letter!! :D
hey, I saw your post on the penpal group, I'd love to write you a letter :)
We invite you to take part in the First International Exhibition "ZINESHOW" in Ukraine. Participation is free. Any technique. Any theme and format. No return. Deadline: 15/04/2013. Exhibition on the blog http://zineshow.blogspot.com All works will be exhibited also in the gallery "tymutopiyapres" http://tymutopiyapres.blogspot.com is not a commercial gallery. Welcomed but not "necessarily" summary of your zine or about you or your creative work (this is necessary for further elucidation of the project and possible documentation). Zines for the exhibition please send air mail: "Zineshow" A/C 9875, Sadivnycha 19/1, 79038, Lviv, Ukraine. mailposht[.]gmail[.]com
when post offices process a package they leave a printed mark. sometimes over the postage but on your letter they did so over the return address...very random. but i'm glad it made it to you. I'm also not aquainted with how Canada organizes the address so i feared there was lots of room for error
Rough week with the normal urban drama and actual paid work (for some reason its taken more seriously than any other kind of work) but i did put together a letter and i hope you get it this week because part of your address was obscured by the post office cancellation. It's good practice to leave a return address on the letter as well as the envelope...especially to new people. I have a new issue out but since it's 23 pieces of paper its hard to print-already lost an original
Hell Yeah I got the letter & address!! It was great. I got it when I was finishing up the new zippo so sorry you haven't seen my sloppy handwriting yet---and it might take a couple days for i landed some soul crushing work monday, tuesday this coming week. Most of my down cerebal time has gone to reading about Mark Twain, a book that was dormant on my shelf for about 17 years.
I hope you're doing well.
It's a reoccurring theme of people NOT checking their WE MAKE ZINES page much...oh well i guess there is lots to keep up with in the world. I do prefer letters--just paid my rent @ PO Box 4985 Berkeley CA 94704 USA
one of the best things to come of me sorting the piles of letters is reconnecting with Julbug, a friend i met in around 93 and i have a very large pile of her thoughts and experiences. We're now trading new letters--though in slow motion. i just went to a lecture on soviet art then dumpstered books from the university it was at. i hope you're well
thanks for adding me as a friend. Drop me a line. I haven't sent any zines to canada for awhile. Does "everything falls apart" reference Husker Du?---that's one band I never got their music, but most of my friends have. It's good shit. I think Bob Mould lives nearby in SF.
I'm visiting my sisters house sorting 20 years of photos and letters...it might end up in absolutely zippo...i can't imagine sorting 20 years of emails....
write letters!

I must admit that when we stumbled upon Berkeley Springs State Park, we laughed a bit. It's teeny; about the size of my backyard. But, I sold it short too quickly. It's famous for its natural springs; one's that George Washington praised for their healing powers. After an hour dangling our toes in the water, we walked around the main street (and only street) of downtown, enjoyed some sandwiches at the Creekside Creamery, became amazed with a family who had 8 kids (almost all boys), and fell in love with the Berkeley Springs Movie Theater (which shows 1 movie 3 nights a week for 3 bucks). The trip was capped by a short drive to the Berkeley Spring Overlook at sunset. It was a very charming town and I'm glad we came.

Hello All,
I'm after some advice.
I am guaranteed entry to the London Marathon in 2014 after 5 failed ballot attempts.
I was into running up to about 3 years ago and did a few Great Norths and loads of the 10k's but have basically given up due to various factors but have completely lost motivation.
Any tips would be welcome on a long term plan for getting in good enough shape for 2014 Marathon. Where is the best place to start, is it better just to get out doing anything for now or is there something more structured i should be doing.
Cheers in advance, Paul
The "guarantee after five fails" ended. You're not guaranteed a place anymore.
Best tip: find a different marathon to focus on.
No, as people have said, they ended the five strikes and you're in rule when Virgin took over. You might be thinking about the 'priority ballot', which is what I was entered into for two years before getting in last year.
That just meant that you got to enter early and may (or may not) have more chance of getting in. I'm assuming that, if you don't enter one year, your right to enter through the priority ballot would end.
Brighton is supposed to be good, so is Stratford (although someone has mentioned that they have a cut-off point and they're strict) and Edinburgh is also supposed to be good, although at almost £50, it's not cheap.
Having said that, I've only ever done London marathons.
Keep entering London (don't bequeath so if you don't get in, you don't pay) and do other ones until you do get in.
i know they got rid of the 5 strikes and then you are in .but i thought they were still honouring those who already had 2 rejections whne they took over.they give them priority each year to ensure they are in the ballot but they would still get the place after the 5 rejections
Fine, I'm senseless But having gone through the priority ballot, I responded with how I believed it worked.
Hi Paul, as someone who never ran at all anywhere except for a bus until recently, and has frequently tried 'taking up running' only to run a mile, twice, and then give up again for a year, trust me when I say I know about being demotivated! It completely changed for me when a friend persuaded me to sign up for a half marathon and even though I haven't done half the training I intended to, the first time I ran 10 miles in my training I was so pleased with myself to realise that it wasn't as hard as I thought that I immediately got my sights set on running a marathon next year, something I'd never dreamed of til recently!
So if you're looking to boost your motivation again, why don't you start by entering a few easier races and competitions - maybe a 10K followed by a half-marathon, to get you back into the goal-focused mindset and training buzz - I don't know about you but if I wasn't training for a half now, the idea of starting to train for something that starts in a years time wouldn't get me out of bed that often in the morning - but having a goal in only a few months time (that I'd told all my mates about) definitely does!
The other thing that really helped me was discovering (thanks to runners need) Park Run - do you know about them? totally informal but timed, organised 5k races at 9am every saturday morning, in parks across the country. www.parkrun.org.uk I think. Going along to a couple of them and starting to set yourself personal bests might help with your motivation!
Best of luck with the London 2014 - and if anyone knows when the ballot opens for 2014 entries let me know as I really want to have a go at entering!
Hi Paul,
Don't worry, you've got plenty of time to prepare for London 2014 (I guarantee there will be people in much worse shape trying to cram all their training for the 2013 marathon in now, and some who haven't even started!)
I'm in the same boat as you, I'm taking a year off from long distance races to focus on building a good base for a spring 2014 marathon. I'm still entering events but I'm not doing longer than 10km (although probably will do longer in training runs)
One thing I'm doing this year is spending a lot of time on cross-training. Lots of strength sessions and even more yoga and Pilates to sort out some of the issues that flared up during marathon training last year. It's the kind of thing that gets neglected when I'm following a marathon training program because I spend so much time running, so I thought it was a good opportunity to work on it.
So I'd say, try to fit in 3 runs a week - they don't have to be very long, but get in the routine of running that often - and take advantage of the extra time to cross train, working on any niggles you may have noticed when you were running lots.
Mols suggestion of parkrun is great, and it would be worth checking out your local running club too.
Good luck

Barack Obama hunting down, actually finding, and then killing Osama bin Laden spurred more knee-jerk internet reactions of people thinking they'd thought of something original since Balloon Boy was in the air. So, amidst a sea of poorly executed Waldo jokes and some really truly, horrible, hate-filled Facebook statuses, here are the fifty funniest reactions the internet had to offer about Obsama bin Laden's death (that didn't involve college students getting drunk by the hundreds to celebrate an assassination.) Only ten years later. NOTE: List is 2 pages long (there's too much great stuff not to keep adding to this thing).

This easily earns the top spot. You've really gotta hand it to Fox News. In a sea of quasi-understandable typos, these guys actually said it. "President Obama is dead."
The quiet, direct simplicity of the website ObamaKilledOsama.com makes the list because that is a badass picture of young Obama.
You can always count on a hilariously exaggerated video from Taiwan news channel NMA News. You might know them for animating the news on a regular basis. This one is a liiiittle brutal, though. But, it's NMA News and they always make you laugh at least once.

The Bulawayo City Council has piled blame on Local Governance, Rural and Urban Development Minister Dr Ignatius Chombo for costing the local authority $6 million which it is owed to them by defaulters.
Addressing residents during a consultative meeting on the amendment of the Urban Councils Act on Friday, Deputy Mayor Amen Mpofu said Chombo was protecting grocery shop operators who have not paid rentals to council on "political grounds."
"This initiative to lease local businesspeople our premises was an empowerment drive, I guess the first of its nature, but now this is proving to be a loss on our part because now the matter is political," said Mpofu.
"Some businesspeople have turned this issue to a political one and Chombo had to intervene using his powers vested in the Urban Councils Act to protect the defaulters on political grounds.
"Now we cannot claim that money because Chombo is against us from doing so. Surely the city cannot development," said Mpofu.
Buhera Central MP Tangwara Matimba recently lashed out at Chombo for abusing the act to his good, and as such there was a need to amend the act sooner that later.
He called for the amendment of the act to reduce the powers of Chombo and central government over municipal and town councils thereby encouraging democracy at local levels in the Urban Councils Amendment Bill.

removing load bearing wall from first floor
I am having a load bearing wall removed by a contractor. We are going to have it set in the ceiling so that it is flush. It will be a steel I-beam. One end will rest on the foundation but the other will have to be supported by a lally column that is tied into a footing in the basement. Here is where the problem lies. This end also is inside a wall that has a stairwell on the other side. We found a way around this but when the contractor cut the hole for the support pad low and behold the PVC sewer pipe was right in the middle of where the support column should rest. I don't think it is a good idea to fill in the hole around the sewer pipe with concrete since I am pretty sure it will collapse. Does anybody have any ideas as to what can be done in order to support the lally column at this location?
You can't reroute the PVC?
The PVC is underneath our basement slab. Therefor requiring a lot of work in order to reroute it. I don't know how much effort that will be but I assume that it will be a big effort with the contractor taking up a large section of concrete basement floor.
Well, can you put a foundation pad on either side of the PVC pipe, and span the pipe with a steel or poured, reinforced concrete header? Just bridge the little sucker.
Yeah I was thinking about that. If there is no more ideas than that might work. I also was looking at it again and dthe main water line is about 5-6 inches to the right of the pvc pipe. If you think that I can fit a support leg of the span in between that then I think that is that way to go.
If you're getting a permit you might want to ask the inspector. Or you might want to reconsider where the steel beam ends.

Bluff View, the Climbers' House
There are only three main roads on the Brac and the Bluff View House is on the South Side road, towards the east end of the island. This is the quiet end of the island, far from the noise of the airport and what little traffic there is. It's also very dark for good stargazing.
Bluff View backs up against the bluff and is nestled between coconut palms, agave and cacti. It's 60 yards to the water, and the sound of the waves and palm fronds in the wind lull you to sleep.
The house has two independent apartments: one up, one down. It's nothing fancy, but it's comfortable and has everything you need including a fully equipped kitchen (fridge, stove, blender, coffee maker, pots, dishes, etc.), sheets, towels, etc. After a day of climbing, the outdoor shower is mandatory! I haven't showered indoors in years.
For a long-term stay commercial Daycare is available and requires the usual proof of vaccinations and paperwork. An alternative is for you to hire a "Gramma" to come to Bluff View and watch over your children while you climb. The usual cost is US$30 – 37/day. Let me know if you'd like a Gramma.
So bring your clothes, toothbrush, CDs or Ipod (and cable with a standard 1/8″ male connector on both ends), snorkel, scuba and climbing gear. There's no TV, no wifi and no internet, and it's far better that way.
The rate for the Bluff View house, per floor, is US$115 per night with a 3-day minimum. If you stay longer than six nights, every seventh night is free ($690/week).

While reading the minuscule writing on medication bottles' labels may be almost painful, it's worth a second look if it means you could be using expired eye drops. While it may go without saying, your eyes and vision are extremely important. Likewise the eye drops you instill can have a serious affect on your ocular health.
In 1979 a law passed requiring drug manufactures to label medications with their expiration date, guaranteeing 100% potency and effectiveness at the time of purchase until the date listed. While some medications may not necessarily become hazardous or unsafe after the expiration date, certain medications, such as diabetic or antibiotic drugs, may degrade or decay extremely quickly. Expired medications that change in color or consistency or begin to emit an irregular odor should be discarded.
While in most cases using expired eye drops may not cause instant or permanent damage, doctors and the FDA do not recommend ever using expired medication and using eye drops past their expiration can have serious implications on your eye health and. For example, if you're using eye drops for glaucoma, such as Xalatan, expired drops may lose their ability to maintain your interocular eye pressure within a healthy range even if instilled regularly as prescribed. By using up every last bit of that expired bottle, you may subjecting your vision to unnecessary risk. Similarly, if dust and dander have you rummaging through your cabinets looking for a bottle of allergy eye drops such as Zaditor, using an expired bottle may not actually provide any relief for your itchy, watery eyes and you may be suffering from allergy symptoms for longer than necessary.
Improper medication storage can be just as dangerous, if not more dangerous, than using expired medication. Drug manufacturers are required to test the shelf-life of medications under normal conditions. The closed-container conditions in which researchers test medication potency mimics the environment in which the medication will be bought and sold, normally standard containers stored in a cool, dry place. Once a package seal is broken and the container is opened, the effectiveness and potency of a drug begins to decline. The shelf-life of medication exposed to heat, sunlight or moisture is exponentially shorter and should be discarded immediately even if it is before the expiration date. For example, storing medication in the warm and humid environment of a bathroom speeds up the degradation of the drug.
Store your medications in a cool, dry place and check expiration dates regularly. For any questions regarding the proper storage regulations for any eye drops, speak with your Morris Eye Group optometrist or ophthalmologist at your next visit

Illinois Shakespeare Festival Comes to Bloomington-NormalJuly 10, 2013
Photo by William Robinson.
NORMAL—Beginning July 12th, the Illinois Shakespeare Festival will kick off its opening night with a theater production of Comedy of Errors at 8 p.m.
The festival, which includes pre-show entertainment followed by one of three plays being performed, occurs every night, except for Monday's, until August 10th, according to Dick Folse, managing director of the festival.
According to Folse, throughout the festival, a cast of 14 actors and 12 acting interns will repeat performances of a total of three plays: Comedy of Errors, Macbeth, and Failure: A Love Story.
Tickets are now on sale, ranging anywhere from $23 to $47. Groups of 10 or more will receive a discounted rate.
To purchase tickets or inquire more information call the box office at 866-IL-SHAKE or visit thefestival.org.
"We provide world class Shakespearean theatre," said Folse, speaking of the festival's mission. "This is the festival's 36th year."
All shows are held at the Theater at Ewing Cultural Center, located at the Sunset Hill estate in Bloomington, while every matinee will be held at the Center for Performing Arts at Illinois State University, according to Folse.
While they are the main focus of the festival, the theater performances are not the ISF's only activities. Various pre-show entertainments will be held, as well, according to Folse. "We will have tours (of Ewing Cultural Center), live music, and green shows," he said.
Green shows are free, pre-show theater productions performed by the actors, according to Folse.
According to the festival's website, matinees will be held on Saturday's and Sunday's at the Center for Performing Arts, something new to the festival this year.
"Shakespeare wrote plays for a popular audience. He's considered a highbrow playwright by some, but we present his plays in a way that appeal to a wide audience, which is what he intended," said Kevin Rich, artistic director, in a press release from Illinois State University.
The press release also provided descriptions of each of the three plays: "Shakespeare's silliest comedy, Comedy of Errors, is a heart-warming story of families reuniting under the most unusual circumstances." Comedy of Errors will be held July 12th, 20th, and 26th at 8pm, July 16th, 23rd, and 31st and August 4th, 6th, and 8th at 7:30pm. It will be performed as a matinee on July 28th at 1:30pm.
According to the press release, "Shakespeare's most popular tragedy, Macbeth is the harrowing tale of a hero-turned-tyrant's attempt to take fate into his own bloodstained hands." Macbeth will be held July 13th, 27th and August 3rd, 9th at 8pm, July 18th, 21st, 24th, 30th and August 1st at 7:30pm. It will be performed on as a matinee on July 20th at 1:30pm.
The third play, Failure: A Love Story, is the only non-Shakespearean play of the trio. It was written by Phillip Dawkins, and according to the press release, "It follows the three Fail sisters – who live in a clock shop, love each other dearly, and all happen to die in the very same year – and Mortimer Mortimer, the man who falls in love with all three of them." Failure will run July 14th, 17th, 25th, 28th and August 7th at 7:30pm, July 19th and August 2nd, 10th at 8pm. It will be performed as a matinee on July 21st and 27th at 1:30pm.

This review is from: Iview iView-900TPCII 9" Dual Camera Super Slim Capacitive Tablet PC
Pros: Good target practice!
Cons: To begin the tablet has a huge problem which the manufacturer is aware of and has not fixed. The WIFI randomly turns itself off and will not turn back on. I attempted to turn it back on and waited for two hours while it said turning on WIFI. I had contacted customer support (in which the automated greeting said 'You can enjoy life with simplicity' Yeah right!) to find a way to fix the problem and found out they came out with a firmware to fix it, only problem is the file is so big it took me an hour and a half to download with a high speed internet connection. Before i get ahead of myself though i would like to add that every app i opened on this tablet, before downloading the firmware, has force closed itself. This should not happen on a product that is brand new. After downloading the firmware, and program needed to use it, and sitting on the phone with there customer support (which is also truly awful) i finally was able to install the firmware. The customer service representative assured me i didn't need to back up my data and as a result i lost everything from music to games to pictures i took on the tablet of my new born daughter which i can never get back. During the process of the upgrade the tablet completely wiped itself clean (including root applications which the tablet needs to work right) and i could not even turn it on until i found a copy of the software and re-downloaded it to the tablet, which was a 3 hour download. Finally after messing around with it for another half hour i was able to get the tablet to turn back on then call back customer support to upload the firmware because they didn't give proper instructions on how to do so. While the firmware did fix my problem with the WIFI it did more harm than good. I was finally able to get a steady internet connection but was no longer able to even open any of my downloaded apps. The download for the application would work and when i would attempted to open the app the error message "*application name* has stopped" then close itself. The only apps still operable were the ones that had come pre-loaded on the tablet itself. While i was fuming about this i decided to attempt to contact customer support again and see if there were any fixes or any other "fun" little surprises left in store. I had called the number four times to no avail. No one at there contact center even bothered to answer my call even though it was during business hours. I am returning this product as soon as i am done posting this review and will NEVER be buying another product from Iview again. I am not a fan of apple products at all but after this fiasco of a "tablet" i have decided to buy an IPad instead. All in all if you decide to purchase this product you would probably be better advised just to set your money on fire and not deal with countless hours of getting the run around from there employees. If i could leave a zero star review i would do so in a heartbeat!!READ FULL REVIEW

|Common coolants as water, oil or ethylene glycol are characterized by poor thermal properties, i.e. convective heat transfer and heat conductivity coefficient. Addition of solid particles with size less than 100 nm can significantly improve these properties. Stable suspension of nanometer particles behaves as fluid and hence are usually called – nanofluid. The goal of this work is to present results of investigations with the Cu – and Ag – ethylene glycol nanofluids. Experiments on heat transfer in the laminar flow regime in a circular tube (1.4 mm I.D.) were carried out for constant heat flux conditions. A naofluid was prepared by means of the one-step method in polyol-process with microwaves irradiation. The test tube was heated up by an electric heater generating heat flux of q=2000–30000 W/m2. The fluid and wall temperatures at various locations along the tube were measured by a set of thermocouples. Results were compared with those determined for the host liquid. The experimental data proved a strong influence of nanoparticles presence on heat transfer coefficient especially at entrance region. The results of this and further investigations may by utilized as a basis for designing of efficient cooling devices in computer or MEMS – systems.

With a flurry of ideas, north side redevelopment planning begins
Residents play a big role in the week-long Charrette
LA CROSSE, Wis. (WKBT) - It's taken the City of La Crosse decades to decide what to do with the land formerly known as the "mobile oil site" just north of downtown across from Festival Foods. The final planning however, will take just 7 days.
Wednesday was the first night of a week-long session where city residents play a big part in how the site will be developed.
When you think of a major redevelopment, you might imagine endless committee meetings, studies and delays. That's not how this sight will be developed. The north side redevelopment is being handled by a Charrette. A seven day, non-stop brainstorming session that will, in the end, shape our city's future.
Wednesday's meeting started as a normal presentation, it didn't stay that way. In a burst of ideas, the north side redevelopment Charrette got underway. It's a flurry of creativity, creative energy," said Andrew Montgomery, an Urban Planner.
Residents give ideas for housing, parking, businesses anything they think will fit in the space. Some times the exchanges go well, other times it does not but it all the ideas add to the process.
"We'll bring them back three days later and continue that discussion, get more feedback, and go back through that feedback loop process three times," said Montgomery.
"It's fantastic to get so much feedback from so many people," said La Crosse resident Jerome Gundersen. Residents like Gundersen know the ideas he's giving could shape the city for a generation. "I've been waiting for this, I think everyone in town has been waiting to see what will happen with these undeveloped sites," said Gundersen.
While it seems like chaos, it's carefully thought out. "It's like a puzzle," said Montgomery, "it's thought otu and once you dive in, the initial jump in is difficult sometimes but usually by the end you come out with a nice product."
In just seven days the first few scribbles will become the future of the north side. "We really have to do the best job we can to keep mobile oil sight something for 100 years in the future rather than a sand lot," said Gundersen.
This was just the first of what will be multiple meetings. Planners will use the ideas from Wednesday's meeting to create their first draft, then repeat this process. Each one incorporating more ideas and getting the city closer to a final plan.
That plan will be presented next Tuesday night. If you would like to be part of this process, a complete list of meeting times is available here.

List, of, prosCONS
List, of cons
No problems here. The aim of toilet training your cat is to eliminate the mess, odor, labor and cost associated with using a litter box. The CitiKitty Toilet Training Kit consists of a training seat that's supposed to fit any toilet, plus a training guide, tip card and a cat treat to use as a reward during training.
The training seat has a series of rings in the bottom, designed so the owner can gradually enlarge the waste hole as their cat learns to balance on the toilet. Initially, the training seat lacks any hole at all, so it amounts to a toilet-mounted litter box, requiring the use of flushable kitty litter. Once the cat becomes accustomed to using the litter box, the first ring can be cut away to open a small waste hole in the base. As training progresses, the hole should be enlarged. Several users complain that if the cat regresses, the rings cannot be reattached.Pros
A few owners say the rings are difficult to punch out, but most report no serious issues. "It is a little difficult to punch out, but I don't see why there [are] so many complaints on this," writes one owner at Amazon.com. "I used a pocket knife and it took a whole 2 minutes to punch out the first hole."
Messy learning curve. Reviews say the CitiKitty Toilet Training Kit does work for some cats -- as long as the owner is willing to devote the several days or weeks that training can require. Some cats take to it right away; others don't. One owner sums it up well: "Bottom line, it's not just the product. It's your cat, and your dedication."
It's also important to note that you'll need to use flushable kitty litter during the initial training period, and training is easiest if you can devote a toilet solely to the cat's use – which may be a tall order for people who only have one bathroom. Also worth noting: Most owners say their cats can scatter quite a bit of litter around the toilet during the initial training period.
Unfortunately, it seems to be impossible to predict which cats will succeed with the CitiKitty. We found many reports of cats that will urinate in the toilet, but insist on defecating elsewhere. Based on reviews, the CitiKitty kit looks like a 50-50 bet; only about half of owners seem to be happy with it.
We found the most reviews of the CitiKitty Toilet Training Kit at Amazon.com, where nearly 275 owners comment on their experiences. The far fewer user reviews at Walmart.com echo the same pros and cons. TV station WZZM (Grand Rapids, Mich.) publishes a review that includes a video, and we found even more detail written by a blogger at LittleGreenCat.com.
Mixed reviews. We could not find any guarantee or warranty for the CitiKitty. The official product website states that returns are only accepted for unopened products within 30 days of receipt.
Of the customer reviews we read, only a handful mention seeking customer service or attempting to return the product. Of these, about half received friendly, helpful service, and the rest found customer service unresponsive.

CitiKitty's in the House -- Time to Toilet Train My Cat, Holly Tse, Jan. 21, 2010
Review Credibility: Good This blogger documents her 27-day attempt to train her cat to use the CitiKitty Cat Toilet Training Kit. Reviewer Holly Tse eventually gives up, because the cat won't use the toilet consistently. Tse notes that the CitiKitty might work for pet owners if they are willing to devote a lot of time to the training process and to clean the tray every day.

Doggy Steps is a miniature, portable staircase that allows smaller pets and pets with mobility issues to climb from the floor to furniture surfaces. According to the manufacturer, Doggy Steps are the perfect height for pets to reach sofas and beds, or to step into vehicles.
Most consumers who buy Doggy Steps say the product works as advertised. They also say the steps are easy to assemble and their animals have no problem using them. Most people who buy Doggy Steps do so for small pets that can't reach the furniture or for older pets that have mobility issues.Pros
Of the few customer complaints we found, the most common one is about the lightweight plastic that Doggy Steps is made out of. These pet owners say the steps sometimes shift and slide while being used, which causes their animals to become afraid of using the product. The plastic is often too flimsy to support heavier animals, and a few users say the steps are too short and don't reach the top of their furniture.
Pet owners posting at the online community ZooToo.com give Doggy Steps an overall glowing review. Customers on vendor sites Petco.com, Amazon.com and Target.com also give mostly positive reviews, with only a small percentage complaining about the product. A handful of reviewers on InfomercialRatings.com are also primarily positive and find that Doggy Steps work just as advertised.

It's an idea that seems to have merit -- a scratch pad that actually trims your cat's claws. Unlike regular scratch pads made of cardboard or sisal, the Emery Cat has a honeycombed, emery board-like surface that is supposed to safely file down cats' claws, saving you from trimming them. The product has an arched design for stretching and scratching; also included are a feather toy attached to the base and a free bag of catnip.
According to a great many reviews, however, the concept may be too much of a good thing. A large percentage of cat owners posting reviews to Amazon.com and other sites say that the Emery Cat can hurt cats' sensitive paws, and several mention that their cats actually seem to be in pain after scratching on the rough board. Perhaps, some say, this is why their cats walk away from the Emery Cat after using it only once.Pros
Amazon.com users overwhelmingly dislike Emery Cat; out of 120-plus user posts, half give it a 1-star review. Most users say that their cats simply don't like it, and speculate that this may be because it's way too rough for Kitty's paws. Likewise, Grand Rapids, Mich., affiliate station WZZM shows a video where Emery Cat is tested with three cats: two use it once and then never go near it again; the other cat never touches it at all, a scenario mentioned repeatedly in Emery Cat reviews. Reviews on other sites mainly echo those on Amazon.com, with as many low ratings as high ones. In the end, it's a 50/50 bet whether or not your cat will use the Emery Cat.
Another complaint comes from those who've ordered the Emery Cat through its website. Customers say that the Emery Cat web page won't let them review their order total before it goes through. In addition, customers complain that it's too easy to accidentally order multiple sets, for which it is hard to get a refund. These complaints are detailed on sites such as ComplaintsBoard.com and ConsumerAffairs.com.

EmeryCat Emery Cat Board, Contributors to Amazon.com
Out of more than 125 user reviews, the majority of Emery Cat owners aren't happy with the product, saying their cats tried it once and never went back or never tried it at all. Others say they suspect the Emery Cat was painful for their cats to use. Of owners who are mainly happy with it, some credit it with saving their furniture.
Does Emery Cat Really Work?, Contributors to Does-the-Product-Work.com
There aren't too many reviews here for Emery Cat, but one poster who fosters cats in her home claims that only one cat in 20 would use it. However, users who get their cats to use it claim that the product is a fun way to dull a cat's nails.
Try It Before You Buy It - Emery Cat, Matt Campbell, July 1, 2010
This local news report features a video where the Emery Cat is tested with three cats: two use it once and then never go near it again, in spite of the fuzzy toy; the other cat never touches it. The report concludes that "felines are finicky" and that there is no way to know if your cat will use it or not. The owner of the tested cats states that she is happy she didn't waste her money, since her cats are still clawing away at her steps.
Emery Cat Forum, Contributors to TheCatSite.com
This cat-oriented message board features 12 pages of discussion about the Emery Cat. User posts are extremely negative. One poster tried to donate their unused Emery Cat to the local vet, who wouldn't take it after hearing complaints that it pulls out cats' claws.

Posters on this consumer board complain of Emery Cat's confusing ordering process, and claim that they were misled as to what they were ordering and how much it would cost.

As Seen on TV Emery Cat Board, Contributors to Walmart.com
About half of the 30 user posts recommend Emery Cat, with users saying that their cats love it and use it often; for some users, however, locating refills is a problem. However, the other half say that their cats won't use it and don't like it; these users speculate that it may be too rough for Kitty's paws.
Emery Cat, Contributors to ConsumerAffairs.com
Many of the negative posts about Emery Cat have to do with the ordering process, but several posters mention that their cat ate part of the included cat toy and got sick, while others complain that the surface is too rough for their cats' paws.

The PetVac is a grooming tool designed to remove loose fur and dander. You attach the PetVac's 15-foot hose to your vacuum cleaner, and then groom your pet far from the noisy vac, which tends to disturb most cats and dogs. The pets in the infomercial appear happy, and the results are predictably impressive.
However, the PetVac doesn't fare nearly as well in real-life testing. Reporters at TV stations in San Francisco, Pittsburgh and Erie, Pa., all test the PetVac, either on their own or with the aid of professional dog groomers. The results are unanimous. The PetVac is described as mediocre at best, and the grooming unit doesn't dig deep into fur. Although the PetVac is not supposed to be noisy, all three TV reporters say it's quite loud, which bothers many of the pets used in the reviews.Pros
Even when the unit works, reviewers say the PetVac collects only small amount of pet hair, suggesting that it isn't doing a good job. A professional groomer that tested the PetVac for Pittsburgh's KDKA says, "I think it's a waste of money... a hairbrush would get that much hair out and in quicker time."
The PetVac Gets Put to the Test, June 6, 2006
A reporter at KGO tests the PetVac at a San Francisco pet boutique. Most of the dogs seem frightened by the rubber device, and the professional groomers say regular brushes are a better grooming tool.
Does It Really Do That? PetVac, Yvonne Zanos
A pet groomer tries out the PetVac on a cat and dog that are accustomed to professional grooming. She says the vac is noisy and doesn't pick up all that much pet hair. Her verdict: "I think it's a waste of money... a hairbrush would get that much hair out and in quicker time. On a rate of 1 to 10, I would give it a minus 1."
Pet-Vac, Aug. 30, 2007
In its test of the PetVac, a WICU reporter echoes the conclusions of other reviewers: This gizmo is too noisy for nervous pets, and even when it seems like it's doing a good job, a quick check of the attached vacuum shows that it picks up only small amounts of pet hair.

The Shed Vac is a portable vacuum powered by three AA batteries (not included), designed to loosen pet hair and suck it into a built-in canister while gently massaging the cat or dog. Functionally, it's very similar to the PetVac (*Est. $20). The manufacturer claims it's quiet enough not to scare pets, yet powerful enough to pull hair up from the undercoat to solve shedding problems. The removable canister collects the pet hair for emptying later. The Shed Vac can also be used on clothing, furniture or corners where pet hair has collected.
Reviews of the Shed Vac are mixed when it comes to how much pets enjoy the experience: The loud motor scared some pets during testing. Most owners say it lacks suction and is largely ineffective. It's possible to collect some pet hair with it, but reviewers dispute the manufacturer's claim that the Shed Vac removes loose hair from the undercoat. The verdict: Providing your pet doesn't mind the noise, it will remove some hair, but it's not going to eliminate a shedding problem.Pros
We didn't find any objective tests of the Shed Vac on cats, but we did find two involving dogs. Reporters at two TV stations, WXIA (Atlanta) and WPCO (Cincinnati), ask volunteer testers to try the Shed Vac on their dogs, with very mixed results. We found about 30 reviews from cat owners at Does-The-Product-Work.com. Least credible is the review at JennyReviews.com, an apparent affiliate site that doesn't document any testing.
Try It Review: Shed Vac, Oct. 20, 2010
Susan Tauber tests the Shed Vac on her two Labrador retrievers, who shed so much that she has to vacuum twice a day. The device is gentle and doesn't bother either dog; they seem to enjoy the vac's massaging action. However, after comparing the Shed Vac with another de-shedding tool called the Furminator, Tauber says the Furmintor picked up a lot of hair that the Shed Vac left behind. She concludes that the Shed Vac doesn't pull enough hair from the undercoat to really solve a shedding problem. "It stirs up the fur but doesn't really do a deep cleaning, which is what causes shedding," Tauber says.
Try it Out Tuesday: Shed Vac, Suzanne Murray, Sept. 7, 2010
Lance Barry, a volunteer tester, tries the Shed Vac on his Labrador retriever. The loud motor scared the dog, and she kept running away whenever the device was turned on. The Shed Vac does collect some hair, but reporter Suzanne Murray questions its claim to have a calming effect on pets, considering how loud it is.
Shed Vac, Contributors to Does-The-Product-Work.com
About 30 owners rate and review the Shed Vac here, and most say it's junk. They complain of flimsy construction and inadequate suction, or say it scares their pets. A few say they're happy with the Shed Vac; even satisfied owners say it took a while for their pets to get used to the noise, however.

So I've fallen in love with dorowot, injera, and peanut stew and haven't been able to find a good Ethiopian/Somalian/Eritrean cookbook ANYWHERE. I've found more general African cookbooks, but those focus more on North and West Africa. I learned how to cook dorowot from a recipe in The World of Jewish Cooking and was pleased with the result, but I really want to learn more about Eastern African cuisine. Any recommendations people have will be VERY much appreciated.

Yes, at the same clock speed it will. Intel is happy with it's current power envelopes (and doesn't know how AMD's K8L is doing in terms of raw performance) so it is maintaining the same power envelopes and increasing performance.Originally Posted by Mankz_91
hold on, am I right in thnking that 45nm should have a lower TDP than 65nm..??
Thanks ;)Originally Posted by eek
Sweet, I think that has to rate as one of my fav bit articles ever!
I've always had a strong interest in transistors since studying them at uni so it's good to keep up-to-date!!
When do you reckon these new chips will start shipping? 2h07?
I think I am fairly safe to put my ball firmly in the "there isn't a cat in hell's chance" court. That's at least the case with Penryn because it's based on Core. Next generation microarchitecture is a different thing entirely though and I can't really speculate.Originally Posted by oasked
Are these CPUs going to have HyperThreading? The Inquirer had a story saying that they would, but we all know what the inquirer is like. :)
I had hoped that all that HT nonsense was dead.
I think that there is definitely the scope for these chips to be put in mini-ITX boards. I believe performance would be high too - I'm hoping they'd be ULV (ultra low voltage) chips.Originally Posted by Tyinsar
;) Thanks for the info.
Just speculation here but if Intel were to underclock and undervolt these then go into the mini-ITX market at a performance level at least equal to Via's best could they make it passively cooled? - I'm not expecting an answer but wondering how fast they could go with passive cooling. (I still remember a time before CPUs even had heat sinks)
I'm assuming you're meaning dedicated L1, dedicated L2 and shared L3 caches? I don't know - I reckon it's something we'll see in the next-gen microarchitecture when Intel's also got a native quad-core chip.Originally Posted by r4tch3t
Wouldn't it be better if they went a little bit of AMDs way? With all that cache taking up so much room... More space for actual processing, less space for bulky cache. How much do they really need that cache?
It's a cheap way to keep up with Moore's law - after talking with Intel and reading a bunch of additional documentation, I felt that they were a bit obsessive with Moore's law. :pOriginally Posted by r4tch3t
Yes, mainly the level 2 cache that takes up about half the chip, primarily for the reason that AMD chips don't seem to need all that much cache. Looking forward to the native quad cores.
As far as I was aware, Moore has 'updated' his law at least twice since he first devised it. Mostly because earlier this decade, CPU's weren't moving as fast as were necessary to maintain it being truth.Originally Posted by Tim S

Intel hasn't really given any information on that, but as far as I am aware, the desktop version of the chip will use LGA775.Originally Posted by aon`aTv.gsus666
Did I miss it or is there no hint on the socket Penryn will use?
So it'll be possible to upgrade (with BIOS update of course) from Core 2 Duo? Nice nice. :)Originally Posted by Tim S

Could I have a deviated septum? (Photo)
Doctor Answers 8
Deviated septum is possible and causes airway problems,but not sleep apnea.
I bet that you have a deviated septum and you need a nasal septoplasty and perhaps rhinoplasty
You need to have a consultation with a very experienced nasal surgeon who spends most of his time doing nose surgery. These are not easy cases.They require both cosmetic and reconstructive techniques and approaches, but it looks to me like the skin is good, along with other factors that are favorable, so if you are unhappy -- and you have many reasons to be unhappy -- check into it having a surgical consultation.
Do your cosmetic surgery homework. Visit a lot of good rhinoplasty websites. Also, read consumer books about cosmetic plastic surgery. Most were written for people just like you so that you can learn, study and prepare.
Ask for computer imaging when you go for your consultation. You want to be able to see the predicted results of your procedure. A consultation without that, to me, is worthless. You need to see on the surgeon's screen what changes can or should be made to make sure you are happy. If the surgeon says he is uncomfortable delivering the changes on the screen that you prefer, then move on to the next office. Ask to see computer imaging examples for other patients in which you can see the before pictures, then the computer-image results and then actual after-surgery healed result.This is very important.You also want to see a before and after rhinoplasty picture collection with at least 100 cases of examples of what nasal surgery changes were made.
The more specialized the surgeon you see, the more likely you are to have a satisfactory result, so spend your time wisely. Invest your time properly by learn as much as you can.
You can be helped.There is no question about that.
Best wishes from Beverly Hills.

You may have a deviated septum

Crooked nose = deviated septum?
The concern, of course, is that you have both cosmetic and functional components of your nasal anatomy that now need to be addressed surgically. Insurance coverage may be possible for part or all of your anticipated nasal surgery, but most insurance companies now separate the functional and elective cosmetic components and pay only for the reconstructive part related to function. It will be up to your chosen surgeon to prior authorize with your insurance carrier and figure out who pays for just what. But of course, all aspects can be taken care of with one operation. Revisions or touch-up surgery is always possible, even with excellent surgeons and compliant patients.
Surgically, an assessment is made at the time of physical examination, including your internal nasal anatomy, and any effects internal septal or other cartilagenous and bony injuries may have on your nasal function and appearance. Then your surgeon and you agree to a plan of action and desired changes. An excellent rhinoplasty surgeon can usually achieve correction of the functional problem as well as improve the appearance of your nose. Be sure to see ABPS-certified plastic surgeons experienced in rhinoplasty surgery. Best wishes! Dr. Tholen
