Focusing on the Fuji X100
There is an interesting discussion in the main Flickr group for the Fuji X100 regarding the focus mechanism employed. Most commentators in the forum hope for a software fix for the focus ring as from what I can read, takes too long to manually focus. Aside from thinking it would be a good read, it's also a shout out to anybody else who thinks the same and should contact Fuji over this issue in case a software fix can be applied. There's no point just discussing it on the Flickr board after all. Especially if the issue rests on the software.
Another fairly good review for the Fuji X100. A personal review from Ian Wilkinson, a working photographer from Australia. Ian shot a wedding and described his experience using it. He hates the Silkypix software that comes with the Fuji X100 but didn't mind the write speeds (must have had a fast card :-)) or surprisingly, the focusing mechanism. He has this to say about it:
I found the best way was to choose manual focus and use the AE/FL button to focus while in MF mode; that's a very clever feature Fuji has given us there. Doing this the camera fires instantly.
On a side note, I really like his watermark and generally, I don't like watermarks.
UPDATE: Ian Wilkinson, who I've linked to in the past when he has reviewed the Fuji X100, has posted a gallery of wedding photos here. He is certainly showing off what the camera can do in a work environment.
There is a discussion over on the largest Fuji X100 Flickr group about little tips to using your Fuji X100.
Another discussion, this time from the DPreview forums. It's about the parallax focus shift in the Fuji X100. www.x100rumors.com comments, that while the discussion is informative because it illustrates how a rangefinder like this works, it also shows the differences present within this camera compared to a P&S or a DSLR and people's incorrect expectations of using it.
Are you annoyed by the Fuji NP-95 charger, a few X100 owners are, even reviewers have commented on the poor design. Here are a bunch of alternatives (US), here (US) and here (UK).
Ich habe auch einen Test der X100 auf heise.de gefunden. (German website that reviewed the X100. Check out the four way ISO comparison with the Fuji X100 against the Canon 500D, Canon Powershot S95, SONY NEX5 at 3200 ISO and 12,800 ISO). The Fuji X100 does really well, less noise and sharper overall.
Having trouble with the X100 ISO? This blog post by Patrick la Roque might help. He has a website you should check out, frequently trying to do something different with the X100. Original source, Robert Catto's blog (also interesting).
One clever photographer is using his X100 with a Canon 430EX mk2. I'm not sure yet whether it can communicate directly with the flash or it's entirely manual, most likely the later. Here is his Flick Stream with his latest fashion shoot. Various videos of the behind the scenes shoot are here (also shot with the Fuji X100).
Looking for more coverage on this camera than what you find on this site? x100rumors.com is one place to go, I've mentioned it in the past but it's worth another pimp since it's more focused resource than my blog. Another is Brandon Remler's blog, why? He's the US Fuji representative. He's quite upfront about things planned for this camera (the firmware updates), the marketing speak is non-existent, it's his voice and he is using the camera for himself.
A followup article by Luminous Landscapes regarding the flaws present in Fuji's camera of the moment. Luminous Landscapes received an email from a reader, he is largely negative about his shooting experience with the Fuji X100. It's a continuation from Luminous landscapes previous review of the camera and the issues within the camera's software.
Accompanying the email, and the discussion to hope Fuji is taking a knife to the software inside the camera (meaning, they will bring out a decent software update soon), there is also a short article about Moire and the AA filter.
On a similar note, here is a discussion about the accessories x100 forum users are purchasing. Plenty of suggestions for furthering your enjoyment of this camera.
Or will you just want the Special Edition X100 Camera case and straps designed by Luigi Crescenzil?
Another honest review from Heathcliff O'Malley can be found here as well. It doesn't go into much detail but it does confirm what others are saying about the camera; great ISO abilities, good viewfinder, slow buffer (but as I posted a few days earlier, it depends on the card), fiddly controls. Otherwise its still good to get general impressions from other photographers.
What Digital Camera have published their review for the Fuji X100. One of those review spread out over multiple pages. The last page just lists the specs so save yourself the time if you already know. They are not so down on Silkypix and What Digital Camera didn't mind the weight of the camera either.
A review by a DPreview member 'tashley', lots of nice big images.

Photographer Craig Arnold has posted his personal thoughts on his Fuji X100, it's in four parts:
- First thoughts and pics.
- X100 configuration – part one – ssshhh. – Talking about the optimal settings to make the the Fuji X100 silent during use.
- X100 configuration – part two – focus. – Talking about the right focus.
- X100 Niggles and Annoyances. – Title says it all.
User 'Pinphot' from the rangefinder.com forums has made some really great observations about the Fuji X100 and has been in contact with Fuji, so there is hope the eventual firmware update will address those issues he stated.
If you have specific issues regarding the FujiX100 there is a dedicated email address for this camera.
Now the fun stuff, the FujiX100 with adapter has a 49mm screw thread. So if you want to shoot at 24mm with this retro joy, then buy this. It's a Raynox wide angle conversion lens.
Have you read the FujiX100 manual? Pengtoh did, there are interesting little tidbits in there he has read for us.
This is a great personal review I found over at Photo Rumors. It doesn't cover all the things we've already read 10 times over either. It focuses on the important little details that matter to us. Details like the OVF framelines and manual focusing. 'Dan' the reviewer goes as far to say two things:
"In the world of single lens premium compact digital cameras, this is the best there is."
"…after-market prices have now risen to twice official price and at this level many people will balk. Look at it this way: yes, you could buy a second hand Leica X1 for 25% less but the X100 is far superior a package and for the time being at least, far more exclusive."
Not from the Flickr pool of Street Life photographs, but an image that is doing the rounds on Dpreview. I'd suggest checking out the largest image offered. Seems to be the sharpest image shot at f2 with the Fuji X100.

Giacomo Brunelli
This blog is still about photography! I know I haven't discussed specific photographers for a while, this place isn't just for the gear heads. I recently came across an Italian photographer called Giacomo Brunelli and I wanted to share him with you.
His series titled, 'The Animals' is a haunting look at animals in the urban environment. I think they are amazing, and clearly a unique take on creatures we see on a daily basis, some we don't take notice or indifferent to. They are distressing, but beautifully crafted, framed with some ambiguity, some with a narrative and fragility, in and around the urban environment.

Tiger Ng of Collections for iPad interviewed
The fourth in a series of interview with various Photographers and iOS Developers. All of them develop portfolio Apps for Apple's iPad. This interview is with Hong Kongese developer Tiger Ng.
Tiger Ng is a developer based in Hong Kong. Tiger is also responsible for other iApps such as PictureGames and PictureSecret. All his Apps involve some element of photography.
Collections for iPad can be found at any of the links here:- Website, iTunes,
What gave you the inspiration to write Collections?
I found the built-in Photo App in the iPad boring, and other photo album Apps are also used in a similar way to browse photos, i.e. list of albums, list of photos in grid view, etc. There is also no iPhoto (Apple's iLife) product in the market. Therefore, I would like to write a photos app to make people browse photos like photo books.
Who are you? Are you a photographer? Tell us a bit about yourself or the Portfolio team.
I am Tiger Ng, I am based in Hong Kong. I am not photographer. I have been working on iOS platform for 2 years.
Is this your first App for iOS?
My first app is Photo Only, it is an app that grabs any image from any web page, and users can download and view photos offline with it.
How easy was it to code in order to create Collections? How long did it take to get Collections to Version 1?
It took me four weeks, it has also given me image processing experience.
Do you write any other Apps for iOS?
Yes. Recently I have written an app called "PictureGames", it allows people to create their own photo games (4 games now) in a few minutes. Another of my Apps is called "PictureSecret", it provides a new way to share any hidden messages using photos.
Will you write other Apps for iOS devices? More importantly, photography related ones.
You released Collections before iOS 4.2. Did coding for iOS 4.2 make much of a difference compared to iOS 3.2?
Big difference. There are no multiple photos selection provided in iOS 3.2 and the image picker cannot be customized. In iOS 4.2, you can customize your own image pickers to provide multiple selections. That's a major feature for photo Apps.
How long did it take to write Collections?
4 weeks.
Where do you want to take Collections with future updates, where do you see yourself in a years time?
There is a lot of potential with that. Collections will be going to support videos, integrate with more photo sharing sites, and add sharing capability itself.
What do you as a Developer/Photographer want to see in the next iPad, either to aid your Apps or just for your own pleasure?
Camera. It is the most important feature for creating new photo Apps.
Are you a one man operation or is this a group effort?
One man.
Where are you based and where have you seen the greatest uptake of Collections at the moment?
In the US.
I found the built in Photo Application rather lacking for a Pro Photographer, others will feel it's good enough. Were you concerned of your App's uptake by other Photographers before committing yourself to creating Portfolio?
Collections provides new way to organize your photos in iPad. It can be for photo books (collage template), portfolio (edit, view, and slideshow mode), and even an image organizer (global search and folder).
Can you explain anything about the creation process behind your app? Did you involve other photographers or even editors to ask what they would want in a digital portfolio that attempts to replicate the printed portfolio and presentation?
Just do it.
Just to wrap up. How do you see this market developing as we go forward? Are you concerned about the 'race to the bottom' and copycat apps affecting this class of applications?
I think the quality is the most important. Less bugs and great performance can attract new users. The market is highly competitive because iPhone and iPad is still becoming popular and many people are coming to develop Apps. To keep growing, extending to other platforms, e.g. android or windows phone may be another solution.
Collections for iPad at the time of writing is priced at £1.79 and $2.99 on the iOS Apple Store.
Nick Kuh of Portfolio To Go interviewed
The third in the series of interviews with various Photographers and iOS Developers. All of them develop portfolio Apps for Apple's iPad. This interview is with UK developer Nick Kuh of Portfolio To Go.
Nick Kuh is a freelance iPhone/iPad Developer based in Brighton, UK. Nick is also responsible for various Apps on the Apple App store, one of them in particular is Tap To Facebook Chat.
Portfolio To Go can be found at any of the links below. A PDF version of this interview can be found here:
Website, iTunes, Twitter, Facebook
What gave you the inspiration to write Portfolio To Go?
I wrote and submitted the first version of Portfolio To Go before the iPad launched in the UK. I'd already authored a number of iPhone Applications and I wanted to build an app that would run on both iPhone and the new iPad. My wife, Nicole Carman (www.nicolecarman.com) is a photographer and when she visits new clients she often carries a large portfolio of her printed work. With it's beautiful large, high res screen I felt the iPad could be the ideal replacement tool for photographers and artists who need to take their portfolio to go!
Who are you? Are you a photographer? Tell us a bit about yourself or the Portfolio To Go team.
I'm a freelance iPhone/iPad Developer. My wife is a photographer.
Is this your first App for iOS?
No – I have about 8-10 apps in the App Store, a combination of personal projects and commercial work.
Do you write any other Apps for iOS?
My most popular app is also my most recent. Tap To Facebook Chat (http://www.facebook.com/taptochat) enables users to Facebook Chat with Friends all on one screen. Built for iPhone and iPad in partnership with Chris Ross (http://www.hiddenmemory.co.uk) we developed a free, ad supported version and a paid version. Our app has been downloaded 60,000 times in the 3 weeks it's been live.
Will you write other Apps for iOS devices? More importantly, photography related ones.
I will continue to write apps. I don't have plans for further Photography apps at this stage although another of my apps – Buddies Facebook Browser also focuses on Photos for Facebook users.
What is notable about the photo function in the Buddies Facebook Browser? I read a 4 star review on iTunes, it stated that for a facebook app it seemed more concerned about the photo features (and chat) than anything else.
Buddies enables users to create Facebook photo galleries and add photos from their iPad. Buddies batch uploads multiple photos in the background while the user continues to browse Facebook. Users can even create Facebook galleries and add photos when they're not connected to the Internet – Buddies just syncs their changes the next time they connect.
You released Portfolio before iOS 4.2. Did coding for iOS 4.2 make much of a difference compared to iOS 3.2?
There's not much work involved if you're a competent iOS developer. You have to be aware of Apps going in and out of the foreground rather than actually shutting down and restarting but Apple makes this process pretty straight forward for developers.
How long did it take to write Portfolio To Go?
Erm… I didn't really keep count. It's an ongoing process so the hours will have built up a lot over time. Maybe around 6 weeks development total.
Where do you want to take Portfolio To Go with future updates, where do you see yourself in a years time?
I get a lot of positive feedback from customers about Portfolio To Go which is always nice to receive. I don't have imminent plans to update this app as it does everything I set out to do with the app. It does provide a beautiful way for photographers to show clients their work.
It's admirable that you set out and achieved what you wanted to do. Not many individuals can actually say that. So you don't feel any pressure from the competition then?
No, I don't feel any pressure. Personal apps are my secondary source of income – I make my main living from working on commercial projects. Obviously I want my apps to do well though!
What do you as a Developer/Photographer want to see in the next iPad, either to aid your Apps or just for your own pleasure?
I'm pretty happy with the current iPad, it's miles ahead of anything produced by the copycat competitors!
How do you see this market developing as we go forward? Are you concerned about the 'race to the bottom' and copycat apps affecting this class of applications?
Portfolio To Go was about the first Portfolio App specifically for iPad in the App Store I think. Now-a-days there are quite a few competitors. It does amaze me how expensive some of the competitors are pricing their apps. So high in fact that I haven't checked out most of their products – so who am I to judge!
Some competitors are incorporating features so artists can display video work alongside photographic work. Other Apps offer the ability to brand a home screen using light editing tools. Do they sound like something you'd want to implement at some point?
Portfolio To Go is a Playback app. These kind of features would be better suited to an app that also incorporates editing. That's never been my goal with PTG.
Are you a one-man operation or is this a group effort?
One-man band.
Where are you based and where have you seen the greatest uptake of Portfolio To Go at the moment?
I'm based in Brighton, UK. The US is the strongest market for every App I've developed.
Why is the US your biggest market do you think?
The US has the largest base of iPad/iPhone owners out of all the different App Store countries. Unless you're making a country-specific app such as National Rail or London Tube apps you are likely to see that majority of your sales coming from the US. That's been my experience.
I found the built in Photo Application rather lacking for a Pro Photographer, others will feel it's good enough. Were you concerned of your App's uptake by other Photographers before committing yourself to creating Portfolio To Go?
Portfolio to Go began as a learning experiment. I wanted to make my first iPad App and also something my wife would be able to use to show her work to clients. Portfolio To Go was less business driven (like some of my other apps) and more about learning iPad Dev skills. So no, I wasn't concerned.
Can you explain anything about the creation process behind your app? Did you involve other photographers or even editors to ask what they would want in a digital portfolio that attempts to replicate the printed portfolio and presentation?
Primarily I see the iPad as a 'Playback Tool'. It's a beautiful device and it's great that there are so many apps out there that enable you to achieve all kinds of complicated functions. However, I like to use the iPad for consuming content – browsing Twitter and Facebook using Flipboard, viewing photos, reading news etc. The default photos app is great but it requires you to connect to iTunes and sync photos each time you take a new set. My wife (and millions of other photographers) use Flickr.com to upload and organise their photos using Flickr's online sharing service. Portfolio To Go updates itself automatically with your Flickr portfolio so it can be used as a Playback tool and not an Authoring tool. I think it does that really well.
That's a clever feature because you actually start to spend less time 'working' on the iPad, those use to the keyboard and mouse will feel they are more productive. But Apps in general are trying to get us to do more with our iPads. So Portfolio To Go goes against the trend of enabling the iPad to do more. That philosophy also allows Portfolio To Go to literally live up to its name.
I believe in creating good user experiences and Apple encourages that. Less is often more when it comes to user experience if your app achieves its primary purpose well. Portfolio To Go has won an iPad App of the Week Award from Apple BTW!
How do you see Portfolio To Go existing alongside a traditional portfolio? I think such presentation apps done right are good enough to replace the printed portfolio. If the photography is good enough then it won't matter how they are presented.
I think Portfolio To Go serves this process well. Numerous photographers have written to me to let me know how PTG helped them win new clients. Ultimately I see the App's purpose as an introduction to a Photographer's work and not a replacement of print in general though.
Portfolio To Go at the time of writing is priced at £2.99 and $4.99 on the Apple App Store.
A review of Portfolio To Go can be found here: Portfolio To Go.
Coming soon: Interview and review for 'Collections for iPad' by Tiger Ng.
iPad is photography
I just discovered this raw editor for use with the iPad. Called PiRAWnha (iTunes link). I can't comment on how good it is as I haven't bought it. I probably wont until I can calibrate my iPad screen, otherwise what is the point?
I also found this photo app. CameraSync (iTunes link).
"CameraSync for iOS4 allows you to upload all pictures & videos from your Camera Roll to your Dropbox, iDisk, FTP server, Amazon S3 bucket, Flickr account or Box.net account.
Do you regularly take photos on your iPhone and want to make sure they're backed up and always accessible? CameraSync has got you covered.
Tired of e-mailing photos and screenshots to yourself just to get them onto your computer? Tired of having to connect your iPhone to your computer just to get a couple of new photos? CameraSync will make sure they're all ready & waiting for you.
Got an iPad with a Camera Connection Kit? Want to be able to upload the new photos you've taken on your camera from anywhere? CameraSync can do that for you."
Other than the lack of a screen calibration device I'd say the iPad is developing quite nicely as a tool for photographers.

The 70 gram thinsulate gloves were the best I have ever bought, and it is a shame I am now going to have to look elsewhere.

They made it through a full day of skiing with no issues, but halfway through my 4 hour kayaking trip, my fingers were cold and soaking wet. I wasn't dunking my hands underwater either, this was just from the intermittent splashing that occurs. Very disappointed, but I guess you get what you pay for. I tried to take advantage of a deal, but now I have to go ahead and pay closer to $100 for a more reputable, reliable brand like I should have done in the first place.

Call it just a hoody, and you're way off base.
When Fenchurch called this men's pullover sweatshirt the Diagonal Stripe Hooded Sweatshirt, they failed to do it justice. One look is all it takes to realize the freshness and unique design of this hooded top, with its trim raglan cut and center contrast panel scheme. Yep, it is a sweatshirt, and those are definitely diagonal stripes…but that's only the beginning of this Fenchurch epic.

And while the company has since grown into the beverage behemoth we all know today, it has never attempted to actually grow its own coffee beans. That's all about to change as the Starbucks CEO announced yesterday that they are going to be going the DIY route in China. [More]
Pix Of Where The Chinese iPhone Worker-Drones Sleep
Gizmodo's Joel Johnson got to peek inside the Foxconn factory in China where your iPhone and other fancy gadgets get made. Some 200,000 workers work inside, and also live in on-site dorms. Perhaps the most gripping images, however, are of what's on the outside. Every building is draped in protective nets to prevent workers from suiciding off the roofs. [More]

USDA Wants To Make Sure That Organic Food From China Is Really Organic
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has banned one of the biggest food inspector groups in the nation from operating in China, reports the New York Times, because of conflict of interest concerns.

KFC China Apologizes For Botched Coupon Promotion

After canceling the promotion in April, KFC was roundly criticized and was even subject to "quasi-violent protests." Who says there isn't freedom of speech in China?

Boston College Education Prof. Michael Barnett Named 2012 Massachusetts Professor Of The Year
A self-described "recovering astrophysicist" from Kentucky, Barnett caught the teaching bug when he was tapped to teach a lesson about the moon to "immensely inquisitive fifth-graders" while he was working on his PhD in astrophysics.
"[Professor Barnett] loves educating people on how to teach science. A self-proclaimed technical geek, he consistently encourages his students to find ways to put new technologies in the hands of their students, including some that I have incorporated in my high school classroom," said former student Andrew Trossello who now teaches chemistry and biology at a Boston high school.

Entergy plant makes too much hot water, says group
BRATTLEBORO, Vt. (AP) — An environmental group says the permit allowing Entergy Corp.'s Vermont Yankee nuclear plant to discharge warmed water into the Connecticut River is based on flawed science.
The Connecticut River Watershed Council held a news conference Wednesday to release new consultants' reports that it said back up its claims.
The Vernon reactor is allowed to discharge water taken from the river and used to cool the plant back into the Connecticut as long as water temperatures do not exceed 85 degrees.
Vermont Yankee officials say they've been staying below that limit, but the Watershed Council says the new data raise questions about that.
The state of Vermont is in the midst of reviewing a proposed new permit for Vermont Yankee's warm water discharge.

I wish to browse for wallpapers for my Galaxy S2 lock screen and as such need 480x800 wallpapers but Zedge only offer 960x800 when I set my device to the Galaxy S2. What device can I set so as to get 480x800 wallpapers?

A list of resolutions does not answer my question as the phone I am using does not return 480x800 wallpapers in searches and its resolution is 480x800. So you can see how I might need better info than just the screen resolution. Now maybe I can do some trial and error testing each one in the list you provided but I was hoping someone could just help me without being snarky. You are what's wrong with the internet.

Even when trying to be polite you just can't help yourself. No "sorry I didn't understand and had I known I may have been nicer about it" no " sometimes I type without proofreading and don't realize how what I say is offensive" No, instead you just have another swipe without being the slightest bit helpful.

SZA is an astral Californian R&B singer and the first non-rapper signed to TDE, the label that made stars out of Kendrick Lamar and Schoolboy Q. We've posted her gorgeous "Babylon" video, and now she's shared her track "Childs Play," a warm reverie with a thoughtfully spazzy verse from Chance The Rapper, a rapper who takes at least a couple of stylistic cues from SZA's labelmates. Listen below.
SZA's debut album Z is out 4/8 on TDE.

Last month, in September, HopeCore's WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene) Program made history by putting clean drinking water and hand washing tanks in all 180 schools in the Maara Sub-County, a first in terms of how far-reaching a WASH Program has been in all of East Africa! 45,000 school children and their teachers benefit from these tanks, and the tanks have been and are being continuously monitored by a HopeCore public health worker. Here is his story…
My name is Dave Mwandiki, and I started working at Village HopeCore in 2013.
My job as WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) Program Monitor and Hygiene Educator is to make sure I ride the HopeCore motorbike to all schools where HopeCore has installed tanks for safe drinking water and hand washing and provided WaterGuard for treating drinking water. The schools are both primary and secondary schools and are in the Maara Sub-County. In September, my WASH team and I completed water tank delivery to all 180 schools in the Sub-County to bring clean drinking water and hand washing drums to 45,000 students.
I visit each of the 180 schools once every 2-3 months and talk to teachers and students about the condition of their water tanks. I make sure they are treating the drinking water with WaterGuard to make it safe, and I also make sure they have soap at their hand washing drums. Sometimes I need to go far and on very bumpy roads on the HopeCore motorbike to get to all of these schools, but I know that this is very good and important work.
I enjoy working in this department because I feel so nice to see people in good health. I educate students and others that when you wash your hands all the time (especially after you visit the toilet and before you eat) and drink treated or boiled water, you kick off some issues that can cause bad health.
Since HopeCore has started the WASH Program, there have been many reports that come to the office to congratulate the good work. This makes me proud of the work that I do.
HopeCore has a vision to reach the entire county with the WASH Program, and I wish for more donors to come in and assist this good work that serves people and serves my God.

Two videos were recently released on an insurgent website. The first video shows an IED attack on a Desert Patrol, a vehicle operated by U.S. Navy SEALs (Sea, Air, Land) that's basically a modified version off-road race cars. This was released by the 1920 Revolution Brigades on Jan 9, 2006. The other video shows an Al Qaeda IED attack on a Humvee.

"I admire addicts. In a world where everybody is waiting for some bline, random disaster, or some sudden disease, the addict has the comfort of knowing what will most likely wait for him down the road. He's taken some control over his ultimate fate, and his addiction keeps the cause of death from being a total surprise."
Related quotes
"It is not heroin or cocaine that makes one an addict, it is the need to escape from a harsh reality. There are more television addicts, more baseball and football addicts, more movie addicts, and certainly more alcohol addicts in this country than there are narcotics addicts."
"I got addicted. News, particularly daily news, is more addictive than crack cocaine, more addictive than heroin, more addictive than cigarettes."
"Addictions run their course and in the aftermath you can get better, be ruined, or just die… not the odds I'm looking for."

So this is what I have been carrying. I recently got my CCW about two weeks ago and have been carrying this little gem with me.
It's an Indian Arms P380. I don't really know much about it other than it is a copy of the Walther and was made by Indian Arms in Detroit, MI. The company was only in business from 1975-1977 and the best I could find on the net was that they only made about 1,000-2,000 of these. I've heard that they also came blued and with or without the vent rib. I'd love to hear from anybody with any experience or info. Hopefully my pics work! Thanks guys.

Bitcoin Believers Keep the Faith
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Bitcoin is being boosted, according to a survey by Simulacrum, by some Ron Paul diehards.
The survey indicates they have an average age of almost 30, they are nearly all male, they have money to spare and most feel themselves to be part of a global community, not a local one.
Their politics are highly libertarian, even anarcho-capitalist, meaning they have enormous distrust of any government, according to a survey of libertarians by PublicReligion.org, and they generally have enough money to toss at something that may be worthless, like a bitcoin.
In other words, they are a lot like Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong. Armstrong, 31, is a graduate of my alma mater, Rice University. According to his Crunchbase profile, he previously co-founded University Tutor, which puts students together with qualified tutors.In a commentary posted last week at TechCrunch, Armstrong insists those who have invested in bitcoins "remain totally confident" because it's an open-payment network, a protocol such as e-mail, and he noted that bitcoins are gaining merchants, such as Overstock.com (OSTK) Bitcoin isn't gold, but as with gold, there is a limited quantity of bitcoin. Bitcoin believers think that makes it safer. But as with everything else involving bitcoin, that, too, is a matter of belief. There's no governance structure underlying any of the believers' claims. There is no inherent value in bitcoins, which are "mined" by computers. Their value is determined through an ongoing auction process. There is nothing real backing them -- no physical product -- just the faith and credit of corporations backing the trading process. Companies like Mt. Gox. And these corporations, such as Coinbase, are not really people, despite what the Supreme Court may say. If Coinbase goes away, Brian Armstrong goes merrily on, and the same is true for all the other bitcoin exchanges -- Bitstamp, Kraken, BTC China, Blockchain, Circle, The Bitcoin Foundation -- now piling into the market.

December 20, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- One of Tennessee's top ten most wanted fugitives is in custody today after he was found in Knoxville.
Knoxville Police Department officers captured 25-year-old Keith Jamar Thomas last night.
Thomas was wanted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the Cocke County Sheriff's Office for one count of Felony Murder, one count of Conspiracy to Commit Aggravated Robbery and one count of Attempted Aggravated Robbery.
From the TBI: On June 1, 2012, Thomas and another captured fugitive, Rico Sterling, were involved in a robbery at 335 Leaf Way in Newport, TN. A third individual, James Michael Brewer, age 27 of Cosby, TN was also present. Brewer went into the residence first and then came outside. Thomas and Sterling went inside the house where a struggle ensued with two victims. The first victim suffered a head injury and was treated and released from the hospital. The second victim died at the scene after sustaining injuries in the struggle. TBI opened an investigation at the request of the District Attorney General James Dunn. On January 9th, 2014, as a result of the TBI investigation and with assistance from the Cocke County Sheriff's Office, indictments on Sterling and Thomas were returned.
According to reports, Knoxville Police Department officers found and arrested Thomas at his house on Tarlton Avenue after getting a tip.

Sammy's Catering

Wedding: 10/6/2012
We had our wedding at Manakiki golf course. Our contact person Georgia was really great. Always very timly in any questions and helpful with some suggestions on other venders. Sammy's did an amazing job on the food. We had a combo chicken and beef dinner....so many compliments on the food and how good it was. We also had chicken wings brought out around 10, that also got great reviews. All and all fantastic!
Wedding: 9/10/2011
The venue for the reception was magnificent. There was enough room for everything we needed it for. The service was excellent and the staff super attemtive and very friendly. We enjoyed what we had time to eat and the guests enjoyed it all. It's been a month and they are still telling me how nice and almost magical time they had. The bar was great, the bathrooms were clean and pretty, the buffet line went smoothly, and the overal temperature was nice all night. The only negative thing I can say is at the end of the night, the left-over food was put out on the table that had the cake wrapped up to take home without our or my mother's knowledge. We were both really hungry at the end of the night and realized the guests took all of the food home. I did send an email with some corrective critism (not looking for any refund) to not do that again because it was not cool and my response was a bit defensive and not appreciated. I won't focus on it because they know what they did. The overall night was fabulous and I am grateful for that.
Wedding: 8/21/2011
Food was amazing, nothing was over cooked or under cooked. It was beyond my wildest expectations.
Wedding: 9/25/2010
Great food and Great service would highly recommend ANY of the Sammy's venues for your event. Everything ran smoothly starting with the planning all the way through the big day!!
Wedding: 9/17/2010
The food at our wedding was the best food I have had in a very long time! I would highly recommend this caterer for ANY event!! I want more of the food we had!!! Yummm!!!

Tooth decay and other dental health problems can happen to everyone, even celebrities. This became clear on Jan. 17, when actress Kirstie Alley took to the social networking site Twitter to beg fans for dental advice. According to ContactMusic.com, the star was concerned about an upcoming root canal."Good Morning!!!! Who needs a root canal??? I do!! I Do!!... ugh. Hey!! any great dentists on here with advice?? Pros & Cons of root canals... and other solutions?? Love an alternative... Not extraction," tweeted Alley, quoted by the news source.According to the American Dental Association, a few decades ago, when a person had a tooth with a diseased nerve, they may lose the tooth. Now, thanks to root canal therapy, it is possible to remove the diseased parts of the tooth and then seal it off with a filling to make it stronger.AboutCosmeticDensitstry.com states that sometimes the infected tissue can be pushed through the ends of the root during the procedure, which can lead to a painful infection. Luckily, this is easily treated, and a person still gets to keep their teeth. For more information on discount dental plans call 1-888-632-5353.

How about punishment?
Submitted by guesty on Thu, 02/21/2008 - 11:46am.
Here is a novel idea... Give out real punishments when these dirtbags are convicted in court. No more free passes or slaps on the wrist. We don't need to go quite as extreme as they do in the middle east but closer to it may help prevent some crime. Over there they will cut off the hand of a thief. If the criminal knew that if they were caught and convicted that there would be repercussions, they may choose not to do the crime.

Just installed Backup Exec SBS suite 12D
Created: 19 Mar 2008 • Updated: 22 May 2010 | 7 comments
On a new SBS 2003 R2 server all service packs and patches installed. Haven't even configured a job yet and the BE Remote Agent for Windows Systems hangs and stops and thus the Job Engine stops, etc. Any suggestions?
Comments 7 Comments • Jump to latest comment
I have the same problem on a number of servers.
Mine are mostly version 11d and I was hopeing version 12 was more stable but perhaps not.
A number of possible causes.
Do you have any Symantec AV installed..if so try removing the AV client on the server. This fixed one of my SBS servers but it was a bit of a stab in the dark.
Any unusual errors in event viewer?
I didn't see anything out the ordinary. I just built this server from scratch so their aren't any strange applications beyond the strange ones that SBS installs. I have read that BE 12D relies on .NET 2.0 and some of the security patches that MS installs can cause problems. .NET 2.0 came preinstalled from Dell will all the patches. Have you experienced the same issues?
Please refer to the following article to see if we can isolate the issue.
Hi RahulM,
Have read through the article..it is comprehensive and lists a lot of possible causes and if i had a week to spend on every server i install to troubleshoot why beromte crashes when I don't even have any remote agents installed, and why beremote.exe crashing causes my backups to stop part way through then this would be a wonderful article.
I have been through many of these steps and even had Symantec Engineers remote into some of the servers I have and they cannot find a fault.
This issue is similar to many others I have seen, band new SBS install, nothing else installed other than SBS and BE. BE should run and be more reliable than it is..simple as that :smileymad:
All the engineers at the company I work at are trying to find ways to get BE stable. Some refuse to install any updates if they get BE working reliably and on some sites we just backup the data and do not bother with the system state or any other troublesome aspects of a backup because we simply do not have the time to spend holding Backup Exec's hand to get a clean backup day in day out.
I challenge Symantec to contact Microsoft and find out how many error reports get sent to Microsoft re beremote.exe or any other BE component crashing and release these figures on this forum..how about it?
I agree with Nigel. I have only installed initial security releases from Microsoft on this SBS server (Dell server). It is R2 with SP2. Before installing one application I installed BE 12D, rebooted the server and the remote agent BE service and all the services that are dependent on it have hung and consequently failed not to restart. I appreciate the article that has been posted but I don't really have the time to go through this laundry list of troubleshooting for a product that is right out of the box installed on a brand new server. I haven't even configured a backup job yet! I am doing a backup to folder routine so drivers aren't even an issue.
Please advise!

I too asked this question. As I remember, the general answer was "it's up to the application" and "it's outside DSIG".

I have been experimenting with some virtualisation options and began using Xen 5.5 as it seemed to offer the most cost effective way of pooling my two new ( 2nd hand ) Dell 2950 along with my new Dlink SAN.
I want to be able to migrate servers between the dell hosts which I can do but I also want to be able to store snapshots on the SAN in case of a server failure.
The problem I have just encountered is with my file server which I have set up with a 1.2Tb iSCSI target with a bunch of shares for teachers, pupils etc.. When I try to snapshot the VM it seems it will only allow it to store it on the host machine HDD which is a RAID one pair of 15k SAS drives which are only 73Gb so no way will they take a 1.2Tb drive .I actually don't want to snapshot the iSCSI target as it is already backed up to our NAS but I do want to be able to bring the VM up and down if required but cannot seem to be able to snapshot the VM without ALL of its drives.
It seems like I should have configured the SAN differently but how - I followed the manufacturers advice for this configuration ?
Or do I just need to spring for a license to enable me to move the snapshots where I want?
Look forward to your kind words as always

- Reports earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.06, or $1.18 after excluding specified item
- Reaffirms guidance for full fiscal year 2009 earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding specified item
FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J., April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX) today reported quarterly revenues of $1.741 billion for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2009, representing a decrease of 0.4 percent from the prior year period. This quarter's revenue growth rate reflects the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation, which overall is estimated to account for 3.4 percentage points.
"In the face of global economic pressures, we are pleased to have achieved top-line growth in all three segments after adjusting for the negative impact of foreign currency translation. This growth, along with our continued focus on disciplined expense and currency risk management, has enabled us to deliver adjusted earnings in line with our expectations," stated Edward J. Ludwig, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our strong performance for the first half of fiscal 2009, combined with our commitment to continue to drive efficiency throughout BD, gives us the confidence to reaffirm our guidance for full-year adjusted earnings."
Second Quarter and Six-Month Period of Fiscal Year 2009 and 2008 Earnings
Reported diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the second quarter were $1.06. Second quarter results included a pre-tax charge of $45 million (11 cents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations) relating to the settlement agreement with the direct purchaser plaintiffs (which includes BD's distributors) in the antitrust class actions, as described in

Otra vez las sodas o refrescos vuelven a las noticias y de manera negativa. En esta ocasión la Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA, por sus siglas en inglés) está investigando el colorante que se usa en algunas sodas, maltas -y hasta alimentos- para darles ese tono caramelo, tan apetitoso a la vista. Dicho colorante artificial contiene un químico cancerígeno llamado 4-metilimidazol (4-MEI), según un reciente estudio realizado por Consumer Reports. Esta organización basa su aseveración en una investigación realizada …

Caramel coloring, the stuff used to give sodas their brown color, may sound harmless, but a new study shows it can contain a chemical that's been linked to cancer – and the Food and Drug Administration is checking it out. Consumer Reports said it found higher-than-necessary levels of a compound called 4-methylimidazole, or 4-MEI, in a dozen brands of soda; 4-MEI is an impurity that can form in the manufacture of the coloring. The drinks tested by Consumer Reports were …

The label on the package of ground beef says "all-natural." What the heck does that mean? Or how about the turkey tenderloin label that says the meat is "antibiotic-free" — can you trust it? While most consumers would like to be able to buy meat or poultry raised without antibiotics — and would even pay a little more for it, according to a new Consumer Reports survey — the problem is determining whether that "antibiotic-free" label really means what it …

Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of the summertime season — do you have enough sunscreen? Consumer Reports recently tested 18 popular brands and although none were rated excellent in all categories, several were very good and a drugstore brand even earned a "best buy" rating. Two brands failed to meet testing standards for adequate protection, including a kids' sunscreen. Even though new rules to simplify sunscreen labels have been delayed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration until December, …
