It's easy to forget that it's the iMac that really started off Apple's recent rise to the top of the computing charts. Everyone cites the iPod, iPhone and iPad as its big hitters but it was the quirky original iMac that actually started it all. While nearly every other PC on the market offered up dull, lifeless styling, Apple came to market with something that made technology fashionable, even cool.
But, it is true that the iMac's influence has dwindled in recent years with laptops now offering much of the compact, stylish appeal of an all-in-one PC, and full-size desktop towers still being the choice for those that need out and out raw power. So is there still a need for the new super-slim iMac in this near post-PC world?
Where the iMac continues to lead the charge is in design. The new super-slim iMac 2012 once again rewrites the rule book on PC design. We were actually rather skeptical of Apple's rhetoric about a slim-edge all-in-one PC, as after all, despite an impressively slim 5mm edge running all the way roung this machine, it still has a big old bulge in the middle to accommodate all the computer's electronics. But, in the flesh, the impact of those slim sides along with the premium aluminium and glass build materials and exquisite fit and finish, leaves a marked impression. Cynics may rightly point out that the fancy styling and build doesn't add anything practical and that its impact dims after a while but there's no denying the look and feel of this machine brings a smile to the face that lasts a good long while.
This is an impression that starts the moment you open the box too. The whole system comes complete, without the need for a single screw to put it together and just a single power cable being all that's needed to plug in and switch on. Even the included wireless keyboard and mouse are synced and ready to go – just press their respective power buttons and you're off.
After the initial touchy, feely wow factor has worn off, it doesn't take long to notice a few obvious issues, however.
The first is the iMac's continued lack of height adjustment. It's a well established rule of thumb that to minimise back, neck and shoulder complaints due to sitting in front of a computer all day, you should have the top of your PC's display at eye level. This lack of adjustability means taller users will have to rely on a monitor platform or a couple of hardback books to raise their iMac to the right height.
You also can't pivot the display to be in portrait orientation, rotate it nor lay it flat. None is anything like as much of an issue as height adjustment – particularly as the slippery aluminium base easily allows the PC to be rotated – but it's worth noting nonetheless.
The other immediately obvious issue is the positioning of the connections. These are all ranged in a row on the back where they're out the way and lead cables away from the front of your desk, keeping everything looking nice and tidy. Great, except it's a right chore to plug anything in. So if you regularly use SD cards or USB sticks or have various cables for different accessories, it's a real faff having to poke around the back.
Overall, though, the first impression is still very good - this is another stunner.
As well as being rather awkwardly positioned, connectivity on the new 21in iMac is only okay. Four USBs is on par, as is an SD card slot and Ethernet port (plus there's built in Wi-Fi), while two super high-speed Thunderbolt ports allow for fast connection to external hard drives or even Apple's Thunderbolt monitor, among many other things. However, you do miss out on any extra video inputs for plugging in, for instance, a games console, TV input or Blu-ray player. Again, okay but nothing special.
If you told me these are what computers will look like in 50 years time, I'd almost believe you. The new iMac looks like what I'd imagine a computer of the future to look like.
Very impressive design - I can't quite believe they've packed a fully functional PC into such a thin form factor.
Just wondering why there has been a complete redesign and no Retina display added. Now that the tech has been adopted by Iphones, Ipads, MBPs it seems like a step back not to include it in the new Imac.
Is the reasoning
1. Just can't make an affordable 27" retina display
2. The argument that you sit so far away from a desktop that retina DPI is not needed.
All I know is that now I have my rMBP i would not consider buy the Imac as I view it as a step down.
You forgot to mention the slow 5400rpm HDDs in the new iMacs. Your article isn't very clear on the RAM-issue either. The 21.5" iMac is either stuck with 8GB or 16GB of RAM from the factory. There's no room for upgrades along the way.
I find it odd to include such slow hardware in 2012/2013 when 7200rpm is the standard today in high-end computers and SSD is ready to take over "soon". There are already heavy debates on various Mac-forums on this matter. The 5400rpm HDD choice from Apple is probably due to the new iMac's form factor. My guess is it's a 2.5" HDD.
Still, I wish they've made it a tiny bit more bulkier and add a 3.5" 7200rpm instead. While I still love the design, it's a 21.5"-27" stationary computer, it doesn't need to be THAT slim or light.
The retina exclusion this year is due to production costs. The technology is there but at the given time it's very expensive to include on the iMac. My _guess_ is we won't see iMacs with retina displays until 2014.
I currently use a late 2009 27in i7 iMac, and had a retina display been included in the current updates I probably would have upgraded. I'm sure many will be won over by the new thinner form factor, but as its a desktop machine I'm not really fussed and will hold on to my old iMac for the time being. My guess is that we may see iMacs with retina displays any time before late next year, with 2014 looking like a safer bet.
Hi there!!! I'm a videographer/photographer guy and been using mac since 2004. I need DVD in that iMac upgrade. I do weddings and brides want a DVD with their face on it… The DVD they provide at your cost will block a USB port that I need for other stuff… Firewire will need adapters also extra from your pocket... Good machine thou. Think it'll be really fast. Shame they don't think in audio/video people anymore…
"1. Just can't make an affordable 27" retina display"
This I think is a part of the issue, as a retina display would cost more to implement. However, more than any of these points, the reason we aren't seeing retina display iMacs, IMHO, is that the machines are not yet able to handle the graphics workload that it would require.
The current 27" iMac is already running at a resolution of 2560-by-1440. Retina display would quadruple the number of pixels the graphics card needs to render, bringing it up to something along the lines of 5120-by-2880. This would require a much better graphics card than the iMacs currently pack, in order to achieve the same level of performance. This would also add an additional bump to the price as well.
I am sure that retina displays are coming in the future for iMacs, I think it is just a matter of the technology becoming more feasible/affordable.
You can't really complain about the lacking retina-display in these desktops without knowing how much resource it would require from the hardware to render it properly. You'll need a powerhouse to be able to display the details at "retina scale" - especially if we're discussing the 27" model. However, I don't think hardware is the bottleneck here - it's the price. If you complain about how expensive the iMac line already is, including the recent price bump, then you'll get a heart-attack if you saw the prices AFTER Apple implemented retina-displays in their iMac line. It's would be insanely expensive. I'll even doubt you'll see retina displays on Apple desktops in 2013.
You'll also have to factor the iMac's "new shape". A retina display that big is going to cause serious heat in that tiny aluminum body.
The other thing is, is a retina-display really necessary on a 21.5-27" high resolution screen which your face isn't glued to like on laptops? I think there are other things we need to worry about.
I think this review is lacking and holding back on a lot of serious questions. The base 21.5" iMac isn't upgradable at all except for the hard drive - which is only at 5400RPM. You don't even have the permission to upgrade to the "Fusion Drive". You'll need to buy the more expensive 21.5" version to get that opportunity. Clever (and greedy) business move by Apple but the consumer is to pay.
The RAM on both of the 21.5" models are not "user upgradable". You CAN do it yourself but it'll take patience, steady hands and a heat gun + you'll need to buy some new adhesive for the screen. Yeah, that's right gentlemen - Apple decided to use super glue to hold the glass this time instead of magnets.
Yes, the new design is flashy if you're coming from an iMac G5 or the first 2007 model but nothing much has happened since then - and that's actually a good thing because it works and still looks classy. However, the new "slim design" isn't made for the consumer. It's made entirely for Apple. Can you imagine how much the production costs will be cut down due to minimizing the use of aluminum? And how much Apple will save on shipping costs? They'll be able to ship more units for the same costs or lower compared to the bulkier 2011 iMac.
Clever business moves by Apple but again, the consumer will pay. And I mean literally because oddly enough the new iMac has gone up in price. Suddenly, a subtly upgraded 21.5" iMac is getting closer to the 27" model in terms of price. My guess is that in time Apple will discontinue the 21.5" and stick with the 27".
I was ready to ditch my Mid 2011 iMac for the new 2012 version. When I saw how many disadvantages the new one had over the prior model I came to the conclusion that I was better off with my current one.
For the money, the base 21.5" used to be a good bargain if you wanted the best "All-in-one" solution that was user-upgradable. Now, with the current iMac it's one step forward, two steps back.
One thing this review missed is that now there is only ONE audio port, which handles both input and output. Earlier iMacs had separate input and output ports. So if you have something like an external satellite or whatever player you would like to listen to, and a set of really good speakers with subwoofer, etc, you can no longer use both these devices at the same time. A pretty significant step backwards IMO.
My 27" 2012 iMac arrived yesterday and I went 27" mainly due to how crippled the 21" appears. I have upgradeable Ram upto 32Gb over the 16Gb max on the 21 (have 32 kit coming from Crucial) and a 7200 HDD and a fair bit extra grunt. I dont game but I live in Final Cut Studio 3 and recently CS6 Prem Pro/After Effects et al and `Im more than pleased with the performance of the new iMac its a massive bump over my 2011 15' MBP. Over all money well spent
Hi Pirugoro although I already knew they didnt come with a Superdrive I rang Apple enquiring about my options and they threw it in with the order as Id been waiting over a month for it. As for £25 for a Firewire adaptor its a pain but these things happen, new standards come along and old ones get pushed back but whats in place of the dropped Firewire port is very special indeed. I saw a Thunderbolt drive demo with Final Cut Pro and they are staggering, so in this instance they have us photo/video people well and truly covered. In our industry more than most things can become obsolete quick as a flash. Wont be long before the fortune we invested in CF cards is wiped out by something new. Nature of the beast Im afraid. However it is a very nice machine
The base 21'5" is severely crippled compared to the 21.5" mid 2011 iMac. If you want to upgrade the new 21.5" specifications you're going to pay more than the 27" base model which still has a 7200rpm HDD, better GFX, bigger screen and upgradeable RAM plus the option to upgrade to a Fusion drive - as standard!
I don't know where to begin with this review. Why is he comparing iPhones and iPads to a desktop all-in-one? Show me another desktop display that has Retina-quality pixel pitch and he will have a point.
If you don't like the keyboard you can switch to a full-sized wired version at no cost, which also cures the USB port problem — likewise the mouse can be substituted for a trackpad at no cost.
Do your research please!
Not true about needing a 'powerhouse' to display retina graphics. The 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display has an NVIDIA GeForce GT650M graphics chip and a resolution of 2880 x 1800 — more than even a 27" iMac. It wouldn't take that much more to drive retina graphics on that size of a display, especially since the graphics on the iMac easily supports simultaneous display on up to three monitors at 2560 x 1440.
Its baffling why they made it so difficult to upgrade and crippled the max specs Im sure there are people who just dont have the room for the 27". Then again Ive been a Mac user 15+ years now and baffling choices from Apple are nothing new
I wouldn't call a Fusion drive a subtle upgrade. It's a very noticeable speed increase.
you say it would require a much better graphics card. Say one graphics card that would work at this resolution, because I can't think of one.
7200 RPM 2.5" hard drives exist - this move is just cost paring on Apple's part.

How can I get my 9 week old kitten to allow us to pet her and show her love?

Since you don't know Angel's history, it's possible that not everyone she came into contact with showed her love. If she shows that she's going to attack when you come near her, then leave her be to make up her own mind about human contact. Start slow. Only one person should have contact such as feeding and litter cleaning with her. Too many people "at" her all the time can cause her to go into attack mode. Don't force her to be petted or held. Don't look her directly in the eye. Speak softly to her. No sudden moves. If there are children in your family, they must understand that Angel has to make up her own mind when she will become part of your family. No chasing, no teasing, no loud voices or "crazy" behavior around her. If she does come out, say "Oh, hi, Angel! How are you?" and keep on doing whatever you were doing. Make sure she has a safe place to go, even behind a sofa and don't attempt to drag her out. YOU play with your cat and dog, too, and see if you can get her to join in.

i find that cats are all completely different & you have to just let them be. I have two female cats, JD & Precious - JD lives on my lap and follows me everywhere but Precious hates being held or picked up and hides most of the time. I think shes happy just the way things are. I did buy a cat bed for my night stand and i can always find her snuggled up there, and she even lets me pet her, in moderation, while shes in her comfy spot. maybe give that a try?

Showbiz Sandbox 166: How MoviePass Unlimited Moviegoing Service Really Works
October 9, 2012
When MoviePass announced an unlimited moviegoing subscription service last year it faced stiff resistance from cinema owners and film studios. Now, MoviePass has relaunched with a revamped offering that doesn't need approval from either group. Stacy Spikes, the CEO of MoviePass, joins us to explain why this time the company will succeed.
Over in the world of music, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced this year's nominees. The likes of Randy Newman, Donna Summer, Public Enemy and Rush head up what has been considered by many to be a very weak list. At least this year however fans get to vote for their favorite nominees.
Meanwhile, Broadway has been consumed with the story of how "Rebecca", a musical based on the novel by Daphne du Maurier, went up in flames just weeks before opening. Despite having major talent enlisted to write, direct and choreograph, not to mention an ongoing ad campaign, it turns out on of the investors behind the production may have been completely made up.
Of course, we also cover the week's top entertainment news including a huge debut for Mumford and Sons second album, why MTV is getting out of the "Jersey Shore" business and how Lil Wayne bested Elvis (sort of).

movie trailer (apple.com - quicktime)
NOTE: This spoiler was sent in by may-may.
The movie starts following the day in the life of Helen Harris (Kate Hudson), an executive assistant for the President of a powerful modeling agency in Manhattan. From this opening scene, we can tell that Helen has a very busy, active city life. She works hard and fixes every little crisis that happens on modeling shoots and within the office. After work, she goes out to clubs to socialize with her clientele while also being young and having fun. As she arrives to the club that night, there is a long line of people waiting to get in. Of course, Helen is able to cut right to the front of the line; but before she goes in, she spots someone in the back of the line. It turns out that it is one of her new models, who is still unknown, named Tinka (Shakara Ledard). She gets Tinka in and then also gets the clubs DJ to give Tinka a shout-out and draw the crowds attention to her.
The next day, Helen goes to work at 7:30, way before her boss Dominique gets in. It is obvious that Helen works much harder than her boss and comes up with most of the ideas for the agency. She pushes Tinka as THE hot new model and her boss is pleased.
After work, Helen rushes to her sisters house for a birthday party. She is late and arrives as the family is in the middle of singing happy birthday, but the whole party stops when Helen arrives. This obviously annoys her eldest sister, Jenny (Joan Cusack), who is really anal and likes things done her way. They finish singing happy birthday and Helens other sister, Lindsay, starts opening her presents. During this part, Lindsays children start talking about the trip that Lindsay and her husband are going on without them. Lindsay gets really excited at Helens present- a copy of a Devo cd and some Devo hats. They start dancing around to Whip It and have a good time, while Jenny lingers in the back and gives disapproving looks.
After they all play basketball and tetherball in the backyard with Jenny and Lindsays kids, Helen and her two sisters are in the kitchen together. Helen is changing into a little black dress, getting ready to go out for the night. We see that Helens partying is a common occurrence and that Jenny does not approve of this.
The next day, Helen meets up with some people for lunch at a posh restaurant. There is a long wait, but Helen gets them seated immediately. Lunch is interrupted by Helens cell phone ringing
it is Jenny on the phone and Helen begins to cry at the table. It turns out that Lindsay and her husband died in a car crash on their trip. Helen is devastated, and leaves the memorial reception to cry in the bathroom. After she collects herself, she wanders into Lindsays bedroom and finds the 3 children (15-year-old Audrey, 10-year-old Henry, and 5-year-old Sarah) hiding in their parents closet. The youngest one says, it smells like mommy in here. Helen sits down with them underneath the hanging clothes until Jenny comes and says that there are people who want to pay their respects and the children shouldnt be rude and hiding out in the closet. Helen and Jenny get into a little fight because Jenny asks that Helen go out and buy more napkins at this moment. Helen is so upset, she doesnt want to go buy them, but Jenny is adamant about it and acts as if it is the most important thing in the world.
The next morning, Helen and Jenny sit down with the lawyers to discuss Lindsays will. The mortgage and other things are discussed, but the part that is most important is the custody of the children. Both sisters expect that Jenny will be the one to get them, but when the lawyer reads the name of who will get custody, it is Helens. Jenny and Helen are both shocked and confused, but Lindsay wrote both of them letters to explain why she chose Helen instead. The lawyer says that there is a condition that if Helen refuses to take care of the children, they will go to Jenny. Jenny is relieved, but after Helen reads her letter she decides to take the children after all. Even the children are shocked that Helen is the one who will be taking care of them. The oldest child, Audrey (Hayden Panettiere), who is 15, sees Helen almost as a peer- not an adult.
Soon, Helen has to find a new place to live, because her small studio apartment in the city cannot accommodate herself and 3 children. Though she does not want to move out of Manhattan, they move to Queens into a 2-bedroom apartment, with Helen sleeping in the living room. Next is the dilemma of finding the children a new school. After many horrible schools, she begs God help me
seconds later, she spots a Lutheran school where all three children can go.
At the meeting with the Pastor/principal of the school, Dan (John Corbett), Helen lies about being Lutheran. She lies badly, obviously not knowing anything about being a Lutheran, while the children smile and nod in the background. The Pastor makes a joke about needing blood tests on the children to prove that theyre Lutheran, so Helen lies and says they are hemophiliacs. The pastor laughs and tells Helen it was a joke and most of the kids who go to the school arent even Lutheran. As Pastor Dan shows Helen around the school, it is obvious that he is the object of many mothers affections. He is constantly getting cookies and brownies and other gifts from the mothers of the children who go to his school.
After Helen gets the kids back to school, she goes back to work. Unfortunately, she is unable to keep her same career schedule now that she is a mom. First, she gets to work much later. Then, her boss wants her to go on an important trip for her job, but Helen has to say no. Finally, her boss reminds her of a fashion show Helen has to be at that night, which Helen had completely forgotten about. Since the children could not be left alone, Helen brings them with her to the fashion show. Helen ends up leaving the youngest child sitting next to her boss, Dominique, to get food for the kids. The little girl asks Dominique if her nose boogies are green, and the boss responds, yes, they are
a Prada shade, and not their best line. Next, the little girl sees Paris Hiltons dog on the other side of the runway and makes a dash for it. She ends up on the runway, knocking models over and scaring everyone. Helen comes back to the rescue and dances on the runway with the girl in her arms
everyone smiles.
However, the next day, Helen makes another mistake at her work
she brings a supermodel with her to the school and the kids end up drawing on the models face with permanent marker right before the model is set to go on a big shoot. Helen is forced to leave her job. She is depressed and sits around eating junk food and watching tv. Pastor Dan comes over to talk to Helen about the kids. While they are in the kitchen, they discover that Henrys (her nephew) pet turtle has died. She is really worried because the turtle means everything to him and is one of the only things that makes him happy anymore. So, she and Pastor Dan go to get a replacement turtle. Once they come back from the pet store, Pastor Dan and Helen start talking about the kids. He tells her that the youngest girl, Sarah, has emotional outbursts all the time, Henry never participates in sports, and the oldest, Audrey, is dating the worst kid at the school who is also a Senior. Helen gets defensive and says she is doing the best she can and has lost her whole life because of them
she storms off when Dan asks her to consider how much the children have lost.
Helen goes to Jennys house for mothers day, where Jenny has prepared a huge feast and gushes about how wonderful it is to be a mother. Jenny pulls Helen aside and asks if Helen has brought the letter that Lindsay wrote to her from the reading of the will. Helen says yes and that she will let Jenny read it once Jenny shows Helen her letter. While they are all sitting down to dinner, Jenny goes into the kitchen and reads Helens letter without showing hers. Helen finds Jenny and asks why she is doing this. Jenny is furious, because Helens letter only has the lyrics of Whip It by Devo in it and says, this is not a letter! I would show you mine if yours was actually a letter! Helen storms off from Jennys house.
Then one night, Helen returns home to find Audrey having a party with tons of kids from school, including BZ, the boy that Pastor Dan warned Helen about- the boy Dan was about to kick out of school. Helen doesnt know what to do because she doesnt want to kick out the kids and make Audrey hate her, so she calls Jenny for the first time since their fight about the letters. Jenny tells Helen to put Nilma, the neighbor, on the phone. Nilma comes to Helens with a baseball bat and starts kicking out all of the kids. Once the kids have left, Audrey screams I hate you! to Helen and slams her door in Helens face.
Soon, Helen gets a new job at a used-car lot as the receptionist. Her neighbor, Nilma, is a very compassionate wife and mother and helps Helen get the job. Helen does a great job at her new position much like she did at her old job
she manages to sell a car that no one thought could be sold
a horrible looking green Cadillac. Things start looking better for Helen, who is now dating Pastor Dan after some initial reluctance. She has a talk with Sarah about her parents being in Heaven and seems to comfort her. Next, Helen has a talk with Henry about not playing basketball anymore. He tells her that since his dad can no longer play basketball, he no longer wants to. She explains to him that if his parents are looking down on him, then they would want him to look happy, or else it would be really sad for them. She also says that if his dad really is watching him at games, he would be pissed to have to watch a boring game, so Henry starts playing basketball again. Finally, she has a talk with Audrey about dating someone else
Audrey argues that she is one of the only girls who got asked to prom by a senior
so, Helen tells her that she can go with any other senior.
On prom night, Audrey is escorted by a very nervous senior to the prom. However, as soon as they get there, Audrey goes off with BZ, who plans on taking Audrey to a motel to take her virginity. A chaperone from the prom calls and tells Helen. She is panicked, and Pastor Dan (who had been at her house for their own private prom) rushes to the school to find out where BZ took Audrey. Helen calls Jenny, who comes over immediately. They find one of Helens credit cards missing and call the credit card company to find out where it was used. Helen and Jenny drive to the motel, and Jenny instructs Helen on how to storm into the motel room and take charge. But, in the end, Helen cannot do it
she is too scared that Audrey will hate her forever. So, Jenny is the one who storms in and screams at both of the kids. Audrey is sitting on the floor by the bed, looking scared and worried about what is about to happen with BZ, but when Jenny comes in, she argues youre not my mother! Joan Cusacks acting is finally taken advantage of in this scene, as she puts the fear of God into BZ. Before she leaves she says, this doesnt make you a bad person, but this is very very bad behavior.
After this incident, the children are sent back to live with Jenny. Helen also breaks up with Pastor Dan because she says that she is a coward and not the kind of woman he needs.
The next scene is Helen sitting back in Dominiques office. Dominique is offering Helen her job back
not because Helen no longer has children, but because Tinka asked specifically for Helen as her agent. Now, Helen is an agent, but she is still unhappy because she is without her kids. So, she drives out to Jennys and she asks for them back. Audrey comes down stairs and Helen asks her for her wallet. Audrey gets it and Helen tells her to hand over her fake ID. Audrey says I hate you, and Helen replies, well, I guess Im just going to have to live with that. Helen leaves Jennys house without the kids.
This time, Jenny follows Helen and finds her sitting at a park near her apartment in Queens. She hands Helen the letter from Lindsay. It explains that the reason Lindsay chose Helen is because when deciding the person who will take care of your children, no one seems good enough, so you pick the person who is most like you. Lindsay said that there is no doubt that Jenny is the greatest mother she has ever known (Jenny took care of Lindsay and Helen when their parents died when Helen was only 7), but that Helen is so much more like herself. She also believes that Helen will learn to be a wonderful mother, since she was raised by Jenny and will have Jenny to help her.
The next scenes show Helen going to the church and kissing Pastor Dan on the forehead, making up with him. And then, Helen in her apartment
the kids returning to her.submitted by: may-may

Replacement procedure
It's true: The spindles on your old stair rail weren't installed with the notion that they would someday need to be replaced, but don't be intimidated—they can be, even if the spindles are trapped in holes at the top and bottom.
First, you need to remove the damaged spindle. If the spindle isn't completely broken in half, finish the job with a saw. Then persuade both pieces out of their respective holes.
Next, find the proper size spade or forstner bit, and overdrill the top hole. Be careful not to punch all the way through the rail. Mark your bit with masking tape if you have to. Overdrilling the hole in the handrail will allow you to push the new spindle up into the railing and then back down into the hole at the base.
You may need to cut down the new spindle to make it fit, but mind which side you trim down. if you cut too much off one side or the other, the shape of the replacement spindle may not line up exactly with the existing spindles. If the old spindle was glued in and the bond is still strong, you may have to cut the damaged spindle out flush and bore two new holes. If you think that the damaged spindle may be held in with a brad nail, don't use your most expensive forstner bit to bore the new holes.
To find a matching spindle, start local. Try the lumberyard closest to your house. There's a good chance the builder of your home purchased it there. If not, the folks working there may know where it came from. otherwise you could try an online source. Here are a few: cheapstairparts.com, stairpartsnow.com and stairwarehouse.com. If you can't find a new one, you may need to have one custom made by a local wood turner.

Crunchy Spider Surprise
I apologize for my recent lack of entries, my fiance got us an XBox 360, and... you can guess. I haven't showered in months. Anyway, I have another WoW recipe for you guys. You might remember my Barbecued Buzzard Wings from a few months ago. Well, this one is a bit more complicated, but it's totally worth it in the end. Don't be discouraged because you don't have sushi experience, anyone who is willing to invest some time can do this. All you'll need is a sushi mat, which can be purchased in most grocery stores in the Asian foods section. Those of you who play WoW or are recovering addicts will know that after eating this you will become well fed and gain 4 Stamina and Spirit for 15 minutes.

|My empty first glass at Jared and Amy's house, July 2011.
My dad had never tried Jared's beer and home-brewed beer made by a man who grows his own hops is just the sort of thing that entertains my father-- a man who cures his own hams in his basement using his Great-Uncle Elwood's recipe.
So off we went to Jared and Amy's house with a package of freshly sliced country ham. To be more specific, we took Jared and Amy part of a ham that had been hanging in my dad's basement for a year and a half. So it was old ham (at it's peak, if you ask me), but freshly cooked and sliced.

As the second year begins of Steve Simon's tenure as Minnesota's Secretary of State, he shares his perspectives about voting in Minnesota, elections and several non-political services provided by his office on the January edition of Democratic Visions. Safe at Home, for example, is a program that provides safe and anonymous email, postal and residential addresses for victims of domestic violence and victims of stalking who continue to fear for their safety.
Democratic Visions host Tim O'Brien and Simon also weigh in on a U.S. Supreme Court Case (Evenwel vs. Abbott) which could soon reject the "one person one vote" principle that has long been applied in the drawing-up of congressional and state legislative districts. If the principle is rejected, millions of urban voters will be under represented.
But O'Brien and Simon mostly consider voting reforms and challenges in Minnesota; a state which year in and year out boasts one of the highest voter turnouts in the nation.A segment of President Barack Obama's emotional, January 5th announcement of executive orders intended to make it difficult for risky people to acquire guns rounds out the program.
Democratic Visions is a community access program produced by volunteers at the Bloomington Community Access TV studio by arrangement with Southwest Community Television. Democratic Visions is not funded, endorsed or supported by any political party, campaign, political action committee or guest.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Thank you so much, I will check it out : )
This website is a great resource and will help to answer many of your questions
Raw Feeding
Good luck!
Switching to Raw, unsure of what to do or how much to feed
I'm interested in possibly swtiching to raw. Although, I am completely lost as to the amount each dog should receive. I listed them below (their age, activity level, weight, and what and how much they eat now). If you could just give me an idea of the amount and some suggestions on what to give, I'd appreciate it!
They all eat ProPlan Savor.
Gyspy (F, lab), 3 yrs., 86lbs (1 1/4 cups/2x) - we go on 1/2 walk 5x week, dog park or hiking on weekends for about 2 hrs.
***She can stand to lose about 5 lbs. Her stomach still tucks up; she's English, so more bone to her.***
Red (M, GSD), 3 yrs., 84lb (2 cups/2x)- we go on 1/2 hr walk 5x week, Biking 3- 10 miles 4x /week
Charlie (F, GSD), 9 yrs, 69 lbs (1 cup/2x and 1/2 can wet/1x)- we go on 1/2 hr walk 5x week, dog park on the weekends.
Also, all three play in the back yard when they are let out. I attached three pictures of them so you can get an idea of what they look like (not the best picture Gypsy):
1. Gypsy/Red laying
2. Red biking
3. Charlie on the fireplace
If you could help with the following:
1. What type(s) of raw meat? Do I switch it up every now and then?
2. Are they okay to consume the raw bones? Any items to NOT give them?
3. Amounts you would feed them based on the above information above?
4. Is getting these items from a grocery store okay?
5. How to transition over?
Thanks so much!

Watch live video from starburytv on Justin.tv
NBA point guard Stephon Marbury has a 24-hour live video chat on the Web site, Justin.tv. On his channel, "Starbury TV," viewers can see him dancing, eating Vaseline, and offering words of wisdom to the public. Those who view these videos are incredibly perplexed by his ludicrous actions and must be wondering if he is crazy or just desperately trying to get signed. In this case, one has definitely flown over the cuckoo's nest.
In his dance video, he is one of the many to give a subtle tribute to Michael Jackson, dancing shirtless to MJ while wearing a facial mask in his bathroom. While this may not be as frightening as Shaq in the film Kazaam, his following videos caused some to wonder if he is on a drug binge or suffering from mental problems.
For instance, Marbury recorded himself eating Vaseline like a toddler trying to eat Play-Doh. Although Vaseline has many uses, such as treatment for dry skin and as teeth shiner for pageant girls, consumption is not typically one of them. In this video, Marbury tells viewers that it can be used as a home remedy for curing sore throats. What's scarier about this, is that other people share his belief.
In other videos, he assumes a role similar to Confucius, providing viewers with insightful knowledge on media networks, such as ESPN. Marbury is convinced that they "don't capture the moment," in that those at ESPN and television try to frame people. Is he trying to make excuses for his poor performance and attitude towards his previous teams' personnel? He further proves his insanity in another video where he cries while listening to Gospel music and can't speak coherently. Either Marbury has some serious issues, or he is diluted enough to think that an NBA franchise will hire him based on his theatrics.
The latter of these two options does not seem like a possibility.
Although he is a free agent, it is doubtful that any team will want him because of his confrontational past. After being drafted in 1996 as the number four overall pick, he played for the Timberwolves, Nets, Heat, Knicks, and Celtics. His reputation as a difficult player (i.e. fighting with coaches at Minnesota and New York) will not likely be forgotten. His negative attitude towards the Knicks' buyout deal caused him to be banned from Knicks' home games and team practices in 2008. After becoming a free agent, he temporarily came to Boston, but left because he did not like the $1.3 million veteran contract offer from the Celtics. For now, he currently rants about being "so jobless," which he can only blame himself for.
If Marbury never returns to the NBA, he may have a successful future as an apothecary or philosopher.
Tags: Celtics, Starbury TV, Stephon Marbury
Marbury is an ego-maniac…and maybe a bit crazy too.
Genius? I think not…
Hilarious? Definitely!
He is starting a Marbury Cult! HOWEVA!!! Quite frankly I think the man can get away with this because he has so much money left still.

Living Garage History: Herman's Garage, Divernon, IL
Keith A. Sculle
Many are the Route 66 travelers that Herman Goddard served at his garage — an estimated sixty to sixty-five percent of his market before Interstate 55 bypassed The Mother Road. His garage is located two blocks west of Route 66 and has displayed Route 66 shields on its facade above the garage doors for eight to ten years years. I interviewed Herman Goddard about his business in 2015 and 2016.
"Hmm, how long have I been at this garage business?" Herman Goddard puzzled near the end of my 2015 interview. From 1961 to 2015 — fifty-four years we calculated as we sat in his office nestled in the corner of Herman's Garage, now a body shop, small parts repair, and truck rental. The garage sits a block off the square in small town Divernon, Illinois (population about 1200 in 2010), separated from the railroad and is rich in local lore.
View out garage door, westward to railroad tracks
Opened as a building for a Ford dealership in 1917, a special drain for washing Model Ts still scores the concrete floor near the back of the garage. And, it is remembered all too sorrowfully for the death of one of the brothers who owned the garage in 1932; having kissed his wife, started to drive back to work and was killed by an oncoming train at the intersection just outside his garage. Typical of the flexibility in small town commerce, the garage served outside traffic on nearby Route 66, and an early set of owners pumped gasoline outside the garage, ran a repair shop inside, and a trucking business besides. A set of later owners operated there until 1983 when Herman took over. His claim for the 1961 start actually refers to the year he began in the business as an adjunct to his father's farm outside Divernon, having adapted a building as a garage.
Herman had initially learned engine repair working on his father's vehicles and, after ending his service in the Navy, went to school. He rapidly abandoned training for tool and die work, saying that it was too boring and required waiting around for the next job. That's when he got educated in body work at the Greer School in Chicago. (Coincidentally, he lived only a few blocks from Route 66 when he went to school in Chicago.) During the 1950s he did body work for auto dealers in nearby towns. Herman's son David, born in 1962, owns the garage now and operates it with one full-time employee and some spare help from his father between eight and noon daily.
Adaptability has been the hallmark of commercial success. When farming began to require increased acreage, Herman turned full time to garage work. When automobiles required less frequent engine repair (since the 1980s), Herman turned exclusively to body work and 24-hour towing. Until two years ago, Herman went towing by himself. He loves his work dependent on transportation.
Through the years he remained a active presence in his community; some families have given him business for three generations. He pointed out that one dedicated customer, formerly of Divernon, now comes from as far away as Peoria. On one visit with Herman, I myself met three former residents who traveled from Greenview, 29 miles away, for their auto repairs.
Garage office - Herman Goddard seated left, Tony Gill, a longtime employee, seated right & David Goddard standing, right
Each morning a remarkable impromptu social gathering convenes around the coffee pot just inside the office door. Customers pass through on business but seated in chairs with their names marked on them are the "regulars." The weather, local events and news (each has identified himself as a Democrat or Republican) are discussed. Herman has learned first hand about the community around him and the long history of his building. He's eighty-eight years old, having been born in 1928.
What a remarkable snapshot in time does Herman Goddard present and the character of his business because of him!

Football Talk - Uncertainty over De Gea deal
Atletico Madrid goalkeeper De Gea has reportedly denied that he has agreed to join Manchester United - and said that he could yet sign a new contract with his current club.
Manchester United revealed earlier this week that they had moved for De Gea as the replacement for the retiring Edwin van der Sar.
But now the 20-year-old is said to have released at statement via his lawyer to Spanish news agency EFE, insisting that he will make no decision on his future until after the European Under-21 Championships.
The statement from De Gea, released by lawyer Jose Bouzas Aragon, read: "I hereby deny information that appeared in various media today indicating that David de Gea Quintana, football player of Club Atletico de Madrid, has signed for Manchester United. It is not true that he has been signed.
"De Gea will not consider the contract extension offer from Atletico or any other offer until June 30 when he has finished his commitments with the Under-21 national team.''
Atletico have already denied any deal is in place with the Premier League club with Enrique Cerezo, the Atletico president, telling Spanish radio station Cadena Ser: "We don't know anything. Officially neither Manchester [United] or the player at this moment have informed us of anything.
"He [De Gea] knows very well that he can negotiate [with other clubs] but always that they have to pay his buy-out clause."
It was reported on Tuesday that United had agreed to pay £17 million for De Gea.
Is De Gea good enough for the United number one jersey? Have your say and join the conversations with the SoccerBible community online, on Twitter and on Facebook.

Don't buy this app - If you want true real time stock tickers. If you need anything less that a 5 min ticker, look elsewhere. App is just crappy. Could use better interface tools, ui color overhaul, and basic charting and plotting tools. I feel ripped off for the $10 in app purchase.

Wayne Rooney and Aaron Lennon will both miss England's match against Spain on Wednesday, thereby depriving the friendly international of much of its point for the hosts, writes Jonathan Wilson. If the match at Old Trafford had a purpose, it was surely to try to resolve the question of Rooney's role.
Could a method be found, with present resources, to enable him to adopt his preferred position, playing off a front man, or could a system be determined in which he could operate as the lone spearhead without impinging too much on the verve that makes him England's only top-class forward?
As it is, the Manchester United player has been deemed unfit after sustaining a back injury against Tottenham on Sunday, and so Peter Crouch will perform with his usual endearing lankiness as the sole front man. With Lennon on one flank and Kieron Dyer on the other, that could have presented an interesting attacking trident – not dissimilar to the one that showed promise in the 1-1 draw with Holland in November – but Lennon has withdrawn from the squad with a stomach bug. That means a return for Shaun Wright-Phillips, a player so out of sorts that on the odd occasion he has played for Chelsea this season most observers have simply been hoping that he would perform without too much damage to his self-esteem.
Michael Carrick fills Owen Hargreaves' role of midfield anchor and guidance counsellor in trying to find a way for Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard to play together. With Hargreaves not quite fit after recovering from a broken leg, the central midfield is the only area that could have a significant bearing on manager Steve McClaren's thinking ahead of next month's 2008 European Championship qualifier away to Israel.
The one real surprise in McClaren's line-up comes in goal, where Ben Foster, impressive this season for Watford where he is on loan from Manchester United, is preferred to Paul Robinson and will make his first start for England. The manager insisted his decision was simply a question of giving experience to a player who has never played in European competition, but given Robinson's occasional flat-footedness and lack of dominance of his box, it would be remiss of McClaren not to be considering his alternatives.
Jonathan Woodgate makes his long-awaited return to the centre of defence in the absence of injured captain John Terry. Phil Neville has edged out Gareth Barry in the contest to fill in for Wayne Bridge as Ashley Cole's replacement at left-back, which just about sums up how second-rate this selection feels given the lack of leading players. England (4-5-1): Foster;G Neville, Ferdinand, Woodgate, P Neville; Wright-Phillips, Gerrard, Carrick, Lampard, Dyer; Crouch.
■CRICKET England salvaged something from their tortured tour of Australia by reaching the finals of the Commonwealth Bank one-day tri-series. Victory over New Zealand by 14 runs in Brisbane sent them into a best-of-three final against Australia, with the first match in Melbourne on Friday.
Despite the drama of Tuesday's match and its encouraging outcome for England prior to next month's World Cup, it was a case of two underdogs scrapping to get the most crumbs in order to compete with Australia's feast. The game was a winner-takes-all affair, with both teams on nine points before play began. That compares with Australia's 31 points, not to mention seven wins from eight games against England's three and New Zealand's two.
The circumstances appeared to inspire Paul Collingwood and Andrew Strauss, two batsmen who have been desperately out of form since the 5-0 Ashes Tests disaster. Collingwood struck 106 and Strauss scored 55. This helped England to a respectable total of 270 in their 50 overs after winning the toss and batting first.
Michael Vaughan's men then did their best to throw away the advantage with some wild bowling at the start of New Zealand's reply. A dozen runs were given away wides in as many overs, with the first of the innings bowled by Liam Plunkett stretching to 11 deliveries.
But England regained their discipline in the field and some tight bowling, particularly from Andrew Flintoff and Monty Panesar, eventually squeezed the life out New Zealand's run chase despite a fine 106 from Stephen Fleming. Although New Zealand entered the final 20 overs requiring just 121 runs, the ratio rose to eight an over off the final 10 and 10½ an over from the final five.
Vaughan personally had a disappointing day, being bowled for a duck and aggravating the hamstring injury that had kept him out for five matches, thus making him doubtful for Friday's match. But he was determined to reap all the positives of England's unexpected slot in the final.
''I don't think you can gain anything from the way the Ashes went - we lost 5-0 and were beaten heavily by a better team, but this one-day series a week ago was looking pretty similar,'' he said. ''But we have fought and we have worked hard in practice and taken some confidence out of the practice sessions into the games. You beat a team like Australia in Sydney and it is bound to boost morale and confidence and that is exactly what it did."
■RUGBY UNION Ireland are hopeful that captain Brian O'Driscoll will recover from a hamstring injury in time to play in Sunday's RBS 6 Nations home match against France. He sustained the strain during last weekend's 19-9 win over Wales, but a scan has shown the injury to be not as serious as first feared. O'Driscoll's centre partner, Gordon D'Arcy, and scrum-half Peter Stringer are also in contention after suffering, respectively, a groin strain and a hairline fracture of a hand bone.
France have made five changes to their team, in line with their rotation policy ahead of the autumn World Cup. Prop Sylvain Marconnet, lock Pascal Pape and flanker Imanol Harinordoquy replace Olivier Milloud, Jerome Thion and Julien Bonnaire. And in the backs, centre David Marty comes in for the injured Florian Fritz, while Vincent Clerc replaces winger Cedric Heymans.

By Richard Clarke
Arsenal pulled off another late, late show at the KC Stadium on Saturday.
Goals from Samir Nasri and Nicklas Bendtner in the last eight minutes secured a vital victory at Hull after Daniel Cousin's second-half equaliser had suggested the home side might just reprise their shock win at Emirates Stadium in September.
Half-an-hour before this 5.30pm kick-off, it appeared that Arsène Wenger's could make up serious ground on their title rivals. In the end, Chelsea, Manchester United and Aston Villa all came back to win so the pressure was on Arsenal to continue their seven game unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Emmanuel Adebayor's header on the half-hour seemed set to ensure that transpired but they lost their way when Hull switched to 4-4-2 on the hour.
However recent games have proved Arsenal's character. The victories against Portsmouth, Bolton and now Hull have been secured with goals in the last 10 minutes.
Better late than never and Wenger's men are still in touch at the top.
This was Arsenal's first League fixture at Hull since April 2, 1915. In fact it was only the fifth time the sides had faced each other outside of cup competition.
Of course, Hull announced their candidacy as the campaign's surprise package with a famous 2-1 win at Emirates Stadium in September. That proved to be no flash in the pan but they had fallen away steadily in the last two months to such an extent that this week Brown had brought in Kevin Kilbane from Wigan and Manucho on loan from Manchester United. Both were involved this evening though the latter started on the bench.
The Hull defeat had cost Arsenal a large part of their early-season confidence. They had been clawing it back in recent weeks with narrow home wins and creditable draws against fellow title contenders. It was hardly football baring the hallmark of Arsène Wenger but it had been enough.
Injuries had not helped. William Gallas (hamstring), Mikael Silvestre (thigh), Theo Walcott (shoulder), Cesc Fabregas (knee) and Tomas Rosicky (hamstring tendon) were still on the list going in to this game. Alex Song did return this evening but only made the bench as Wenger stuck with the side that had squeezed past Bolton last weekend.
Perhaps the spectre of that September victory helped Hull in the early stages. The home side dominated the opening minutes in terms of territory but did little with it.
Apart from the odd flashing cross, their only real chance came after seven minutes when Denilson's pass strayed to Nathan Doyle, who strode forward but his low shot was easily gathered by Almunia.
Arsenal were struggling to find their feet. However they nearly grabbed an unlikely lead in the 12th minute when Adebayor was hauled down 25 yards out. Van Persie's low free-kick deflected a matter of inches past the post with Boaz Myhill beaten.
Gradually the visitors discovered some of their fluency and just before the half-hour they would take the lead. In the 28th minute, Emmanuel Eboue's skills saw him brought down on the right. Van Persie's whipped-in free-kick looked destined for the top corner but Myhill's fingertips touched the ball onto the bar and Djourou could not turn in his shot from close range.
It was a massive chance but Hull could not clear the ball and it would cost them. A couple of quick corners later, Van Persie floated the ball to the far post and Adebayor steered home the simplest of headers. It was the Togolese targetman's 12th goal of the season and lifted him level with Van Persie at the top of Arsenal's scoring charts.
A lead was a luxury. In recent games, Arsenal had been forced to roll up their sleeves and graft their way to late victories. The goal seemed to make a massive difference.
Suddenly there was a spring in the visitors' step while Hull's body language betrayed their lack of confidence.
Nine minutes before the break Arsenal should have doubled their lead. Adebayor crossed from the left and an unmarked Eboue sliced the ball wide at the far post.
The striker was clearly in the mood today. Five minutes into the second half he ended a fine Arsenal move by blasting a stinging shot at Myhill.
Wenger's men were starting to look comfortable. But the introduction of Manucho unsteadied them and the home fans claimed penalty when the Angolan clashed with Djourou in the area on the hour.
Six minutes later, Hull would grab their equaliser. Bernard Mendy had ample time to fire in a cross from the right flank but his effort was aided by a deflection off Clichy's foot. It was a crucial touch because it meant the ball floated nicely into the path of Cousin who had a simple job to nod into the top corner from close range.
Wenger changed formation immediately. Eboue was brought off and Bendtner came on as Arsenal went 4-3-3.
Van Persie dribbled a free-kick wide and Diaby slashed a shot equally adrift but Arsenal were searching for ideas.
They found one with eight minutes left. Bendtner tucked a ball inside to Van Persie just outside the area. The Dutchman showed elusive skills to immediately fed Nasri on the left. The Frenchman buried a low shot beyond Myhill and just inside the far post.
Four minutes later Bendtner killed the game by sweeping home a third.
The Dane could have snaffled a fourth in injury time but his close-range header bounced back off the post.
Yet, but that time, Arsenal had what they wanted.

I have been sitting on a gratis copy of Come to the Waters: Daily Bible Devotions for Spiritual Refreshment for about a year now which deserves a recommendation. This daily devotional guide is a selection from the writings of James Montgomery Boice (1938-2000), late senior pastor of Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, PA, and is published by Baker Books. I am not in the habit of using devotional guides, although I own my fair share, but having read a few selections over the past couple of months I decided to take this one to work to keep it within reach on my desk with the hope of making better use of it.
This plan has proven to be a great help to me, and I'd like to note a portion of this morning's reading (September 20). The title of this selection is "On Guard", and the text under consideration is Acts 5:3 (ESV) - "Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?"
Here is the part that stood out to me:
Here is the part that stood out to me:
If we go through periods of special blessing, as these early Christians has, personally or in our church, we can expect Satan or one of his demons to attack us. It is because Satan does not want the church of Jesus Christ to thrive. If you are only going through the motions for serving Jesus, Satan will not worry about you very much. If you are not attempting anything important for God, if you are not breaking new ground, not witnessing, not serving in any particularly effective way, Satan will probably leave you alone. On the other hand, if you really are trying to do something for God--if your church is effective, if you have a strong missions program, if you have people out witnessing, if you are trying to embody the gospel in social programs that minister to the needs of real people and demonstrate the real love of Jesus Christ--Satan will attack you. You will have to be on your guard against him.
I've been thinking about this most of the day and the Holy Spirit is convicting my heart. Here are a few of my thoughts.
Boice lays out two options: either Satan is leaving me alone, or he is attacking me.
Boice lays out two options: either Satan is leaving me alone, or he is attacking me.
But what does it mean that Satan "is leaving me alone"? I must confess that I'd much rather him leave me alone. But if he is leaving me alone, what does that say of my relationship to God? The words of the Son of God spoken in Revelation 3 to the church of Laodicea came to mind:
"'I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, so that you may see.'"
(Revelation 3:15-18 ESV)
So, being tolerable to Satan leaves me in a position of being intolerable to my Lord and Savior. Cast in this light, I would prefer the pleasure of God. And although this means that I must face the attacks of the Evil One, I find fresh encouragement in the concluding words of the Son of God:
Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"
(Revelation 3:19-22 ESV)

Awful experience
If you like buying sick plants and getting yelled at this is the store for you! We were sold a near dead bonsai plant that was infested with mites, which we only discovered after doing some research. To their credit the owners took it back and said they would treat it and get back to us in 2-3 weeks. However, after 5 weeks and multiple unanswered calls we stopped by the shop and they told us "someone had stolen it" and that they would reimburse us but that "we would have to come back later because we don't know how to operate the credit card machine". We returned a few days later and after reimbursing us we got yelled at being told "get out, this is your fault, nothing like this has happened in 30 years". I suspect the mean spirited owners were simply shamed by their ineptitude to keep their plants healthy or even do simple things like do a refund and took it out on us, but it's hard to recommend this store based on our experience.

Photo: The 6.7 magnitude Northridge Earthquake caused $2.5 billion in damages to roads and buildings, according to FEMA. Photo courtesy of FEMA
Earthquakes are unlike hurricanes and floods because they can't be predicted. But what if there was warning system to alert residents that the ground would start shaking in 10 to 15 seconds? Although this doesn't sound like very much time, it would provide the opportunity for:
In only 15 seconds, people would have the opportunity to improve their safety and prevent data loss. This is what seismologists and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) are trying to provide California residents -- a publicly available early warning earthquake system.
"The idea is that you detect the beginnings of the earthquake, and then you rapidly assess the magnitude that earthquake poses, and provide a warning to people before the shaking starts," said Richard Allen, seismology professor at the University of California (UC), Berkeley. "We're talking about very short periods of time -- a few seconds to a few tens of seconds."
The combination of new technologies and expanded understanding about earthquakes is letting seismologists move closer to issuing public alerts before people feel the first tremor. "There's a recognized need for more rapid earthquake information, particularly in our digital age," said David Oppenheimer, seismologist for the USGS. "There are certain applications that could be used with earthquake early warning to mitigate the impacts of an earthquake. That's our mission."
Earthquake early warning isn't a new idea. On Oct. 1, 2007, the Japan Meteorological Agency launched the most advanced early warning system to date, which provides alerts through media outlets and Internet applications when an earthquake is detected. Systems also have been established in Mexico City, Turkey, Taiwan and Romania, Allen said.
Early warning systems detect primary waves, the first tremors of an earthquake that travel at about 1 to 5 mph in the Earth's crust, according to the Nevada Seismological Lab at the University of Nevada. The damage comes from the next round of waves, called shear or secondary waves, which can topple buildings and cause the damage associated with large temblors. These "s-waves" move slower than their predecessors, which provides a window of time in which the public could be alerted. The time between the two sets of waves is fairly constant, which lets seismologists estimate when the ground will begin shaking in a given area.
In August 2006, the USGS funded a $900,000 project to take the algorithms that various groups had developed for earthquake prediction and get them running on real-time seismic systems. The effort is a collaboration among the USGS, Swiss Seismological Institute, Southern California Earthquake Center and UC Berkeley. Seismologists monitored the performance of three algorithms that are running statewide in California, according to Allen. He said the algorithms constantly detect earthquakes and accurately predicted the two largest quakes during the three-year test period. They were magnitude 5.4 earthquakes, one in the San Francisco Bay Area and one in the Los Angeles region.
The initial test period proved the concept was technically feasible. In August 2009, phase two began as another three-year project funded by the USGS for $1.2 million. "The goal of this three-year project is to develop a prototype warning system that actually provides warning to a small group of users, maybe 10 institutional users," Allen said. "So we're currently in the process of taking the best from each of these three algorithms and combining them into a single algorithm that will form

Series V, Scrapbooks, 1912-1994
There are 60 scrapbooks containing histories of the organization, minutes and agendas of local, District 9, and Florida Federation meetings. Also included are financial records, correspondence, projects and awards, and newspaper articles about the club and its members.
Some of the materials have been removed and placed in the appropriate subject files: Charter and By-Laws, a telegram from President William Howard Taft in 1912, and other correspondence. Photographs were put into a separate box, but many are stuck to the pages and can't be removed from the early scrapbooks. The same is true of many reports, awards, and meeting programs.

Lanikai Beach, Oahu
Lanikai beach is one of Hawaii's most picturesque beaches with fine white sand and excellent swimming year-round thanks to an offshore reef that keeps the water calm. The beach is ideal for small children and those who dont like to contend with waves. Less than a mile offshore are two small islands (bird sanctuaries) that one can kayak to. Lanikai is nestled in a corner of Kailua town, hemmed in by hills, and the exclusive residential neighborhood built around the ocean adds to the beachs charm. In years gone by Lanikai was without peer. Eventually the word got out and Lanikai was featured prominently in many publications (including TV). Unfortunately this turned a once quiet and peaceful beach into a popular excursion for visitors from other parts of the island. The mile long beach has also lost a lot of its precious sand to erosion in recent years and is nearly half the size it once was. Still, Lanikai cant but please those who dont reminisce over the beach of yesteryear..
