Very comfortable and fits well with or without socks. I especially like the extra traction the sole has. I can't wait to actually use them for outdoor walking/jogging/running."

Description of the Daytona Beach vacation home rental
Gather together the whole gang and have the time of your life at Sweet Dreams, our 3-storey beach house near Flagler Beach. With ocean views, 2 kitchens, balconies, a private pool and spa, and even an elevator, it combines comfort with perfect location! You'll see both the sunrise and sunset from the 3rd floor balcony at Sweet Dreams. With the ocean one row of houses away and the Intracoastal Waterway at our back, there are beautiful vistas and convenient places to beach comb, swim, kayak, boat, and simply sunbathe, all within a few minutes' walk. But you don't really have to leave Sweet Dreams to find great water, thanks to our sparkling "dancing dolphins" swimming pool and heated spa! Surrounded by open deck for lounging, and framed in tropical palm trees, our pool is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. And with our brand-new gas grill out on the deck, why not spend the evening in, playing Marco Polo and Sharks and Minnows?! The first floor also boasts a big bedroom with a queen-sized bed, HDTV, and nice views, plus a second bedroom with 1 queen bed and a flat-screen TV. The laundry room is here, as well as a full bathroom, so it's easy for the kids to run in and out from the pool. (There is a bathroom on each floor of our house.) If anyone in your group has accessibility issues or appreciates ground-level access to the pool, the first floor is ideal! And of course the elevator awaits, as well as indoor and outdoor stairs. The 2nd floor is all about easy, comfortable family living. There's a lovely kitchenette here (at wheelchair level), so if you're traveling with a second family or if some members of your group have special dietary needs, this is a great place for them. The second floor also features a big family game room, which includes a full bar, long sofa, foosball, giant flat-screen TV, and access to the wide, breezy balcony. And, the 2nd floor is handicapped equipped with wide shower doors & toilet rail. On the second floor are several bedrooms, including 1 king bed and 1 queen-sized bed and HDTV, and one with bunkbeds and a daybed, plus access to the balcony. These rooms share the second full bathroom. The third floor contains the formal living room, kitchen, dining area, and master suite. Although the views are lovely from many rooms in Sweet Dreams, the living room has a sweeping ocean view that complements its high ceilings and clean, modern lines. A giant 42-inch HDTV is mounted on the wall, while 2 sets of sliding glass doors lead out to the balcony. Two of the ultra-comfy couches becomes a queen bed, and the polished hardwood floors feel so good on hot, tired "beach feet"! Adjacent to the living room, in a sun-soaked corner of the house, is our big dining area. In addition to the long table set with chairs, we have stools at the breakfast bar and a long bench. But let's face it: most of your meals are going straight out to the balcony or the side of the pool! Bring along the Settlers of Catan, a few decks of cards, and all your electronics (you have free wireless Internet at Sweet Dreams), and turn the dining room into a game and computer center! Of course, you may have to revise your plans for eating out once you see the kitchen at Sweet Dreams. Everything is brand new, gleaming in white, black, and silver. Stainless-steel appliances, stone countertops, all the dishes and cookware and utensils you could ask for, and timesavers from the microwave and dishwasher to the coffeemaker -- they're all waiting for you here! You will love spending time in this state-of-the-art kitchen. And then there's the master suite, with its king-sized bed, huge flat-screen TV, private entrance to the balcony, and luxurious bathroom. An elegant, relaxing room, it's a haven you'll want to return to each night. And the separate vanities in the bathroom, plus the walk-in shower and soaking tub, make you want to linger long in the morning. Sweet Dreams was built just for big groups & for fun memories!

Know Your Climbing Area
Where is the access? Is there a designated trail to the climbing area? Is it on public or private land? Where can I park my car? Get information from the local BLM office, guidebooks, online sources, the local climbing shops or your climbing buddies.
What is the site's climbing ethic? Research whether or not there are site-specific guidelines about climbing free, using removable protection or leaving marks on rocks.
What about vegetation? Climbing activity has an impact on the plants and soils at the bottom and top of a climb, as well as on cliff-dwelling plants. The Access Fund identifies 6 zones impacted by a typical climb. Some areas have highly sensitive vegetation, while others have fewer concerns. Climbers should minimize their impact on vegetation at all times, but be aware of site-specific issues as well.
BLM's Climbing Policy:
Use of Fixed Anchors in BLM Wilderness
BLM maintains a strong partnership with the Access Fund, a non-profit advocacy group that works with federal, state and local officials; local climbing organizations; and land managers to develop and guide climbing management policies for public and private lands. The Access Fund hosts two excellent websites: www.accessfund.org , a general resource for climbers, and www.climbingmanagement.org a site now in development that will provide good information for organizations that manage climbing.

What began in the living room of Susan Labbee has now grown so large she had to move it from home to a room at the courthouse. A group of interested people began a class on how to cook with their food storage and share new recipes. So they met at Labbee's home until the group of participants had to look for larger quarters.
Christine Jensen from the Utah State Extension Office agreed to help the group. She arranged for them to meet at the county building on Feb. 3. Their next meeting will be on March 6 at noon upstairs at the county building. Jensen also offered to copy recipes for the group.
The group learned how to use wheat and powdered milk at their last class and received a packet of recipes to try. Christine Cottrell taught the group to soak the wheat in a thermos with hot water overnight to soften the wheat and prepare it for use in recipes. The wheat was made into a recipe which used the wheat just like beans in baked beans.
The wheat was also put into a salad similar to a Waldorf salad. The participants this day brought a variety of food items using wheat and powdered milk as well as other new recipes.
Labbee said, "We all have food storage, but do we know how to use it and will our families like what is fixed?" That was the idea upon which the group was founded. How can they make the items they have in their food storages more appealing and appetizing to their families in the event of a disaster or emergency where the family has to rely on their food storage.
Labbee encouraged anyone interested to attend their March class.
Maple Cookies
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup canned milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 cup walnuts
Mix shortening, sugars and eggs. Stir in milk and vanilla. Add flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix and chill for one hour. Drop by little teaspoons on cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool and frost.
4 Tbsp. canned milk
4 Tbsp. brown sugar
4 Tbsp. butter
Beat and add enough powdered sugar to make creamy. Frost cookies and put a piece of walnut on each cookie.
Cream of potato soup
6 potatoes, sliced
2 cups chicken broth
1-13 ounce can evaporated milk
1 medium onion, minced
1 1/2 cups water
salt and pepper to taste
Combine potatoes, onion, broth and water in a pan. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are done. Pour half of the potatoes and liquid into a blender or mixing bowl. Beat until smooth and return to the pan. Boil. Lower heat to simmer and add milk and simmer another four to five minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and garnish with chives, if desired.
This recipe serves 6-8 people.
You can also add pieces of chicken, ham or bacon to this soup if desired. A can of corn and/or cooked celery may also be added for variation. This is a very filling and inexpensive soup. Some people have used frozen hash browns instead of the raw potatoes if you are in a hurry or do not have regular potatoes.
Cooked Wheat berries
Treat the wheat just like beans, clean and soak before cooking. Wheat can also be sprouted before cooking. Cooked wheat berries can be kept in the freezer until needed.
Waldorf wheat salad
2-3 cups cooked wheat berries
3 ribs celery, chopped
1 apple, chopped
1/2 large container of Vanilla yogurt
Fold all the ingredients together, using the yogurt as the dressing. Chill before serving.
Boston baked wheat
6 cups cooked and drained wheat berries
chopped onion
brown sugar
cooked bacon strips
Stir all ingredients together, laying bacon across the top of the mixture. Bake in a 300 degree oven until cooked down to the consistency you like.
This recipe is versatile. Use your favorite recipe just replacing the beans with the cooked wheat or mixing beans and wheat. That gives you a complete protein. Put in the amount of ingredients to suit your taste. Try pineapple or green pepper, whatever you like.
Soft cottage cheese
2 cups boiling water
1 tsp. citric acid crystals
1 1/2 cups non-instant dry milk
Purchase the citric acid crystals at the pharmacy or substitute 4-5 Tbls. fresh lemon juice or 4-5 Tbls. white vinegar. Blend water and dry milk powder and pour into a sauce pan sprayed with Pam, over low heat. Sprinkle citric acid slowly around the edges while stirring, just until milk curdles, separating into curds and whey. Stir until the curdled milk turns yellowish. If it stays white, there may not be enough citric acid added or it is just not stirred in well enough. Do not let the mixture come to a boil. Take to the sink and rinse over a colander in very hot water until there is no more foam, then in cold water. Press out liquid, add salt. Store in refrigerator and use in any recipe calling for cottage cheese.

Let's look at the Akatsuki as a whole real quick. Look at the members. Madara, Itachi, Sasuke. Look at those three. They're related right? Well look at the Akatsuki uniforms. They're all the same right?
All of the Akatsuki are related. The uniforms gives it away.
Let's look at Itachi, Deidara, Pain, and Kanon. They all use eye liner, but not just any eye liner. THEY USE THE SAME EYE LINER. Madara wore a mask because of a horrible plastic surgery accident and he now wears the same make up.
All members of Akatsuki wear rings, which only adds support to them being related.
They obviously partake in family bonding. The ritual where they took the bijuu from Gaara.
Who takes what role in the family?
Here's the chart.
Messed up the chart. I'm fixing it.

Controversy and outrage swirls over dog killing
by KJCE Staff
posted Apr 17 2012 6:24AM
The outrage over an Austin police officer shooting and killing a dog over the weekend continues to grow as the story goes viral.
APD spokesman Sgt. David Daniels said officer Thomas Griffin, who has been with APD for 30 months, responded to a 911 call indicating a domestic disturbance in the 2600 block of East Fifth Street on Saturday afternoon around 4:45 p.m.
Michael Paxton was in the backyard of his triplex home at the time, playing frisbee with his dog Cisco. When he went around to the front of the residence to grab something from his truck, he came face to face with Griffin - who had his gun drawn and immediately ordered Paxton to put his hands up. Cisco heard the commotion, ran around to the front of the property, and charged Griffin, who fired a single shot "in self defense", according to APD.
Dashcam video released by APD shows that the entire exchange took place on Paxton's property, and Griffin can be heard yelling "get your hands up" and "get your dog" just moments before a gunshot rang out. Paxton then pleads with Griffin, asking why his dog was just shot. Austin police say the individual who made the disturbance call to 911 gave dispatchers the wrong address; it was actually taking place next door to Paxton's residence.
Listen to the 911 call that triggered this incident:
Audio from Officer Griffin's dash camera of the shooting and immediate aftermath:
More from the dashboard camera:
APD says there is an internal review every time an officer's firearm is discharged. Griffin is still on duty and APD would not answer questions about why a firearm was used instead of a taser. "We are not going to second guess our officer," said Daniels who says officers can use force when they feel physically threatened by an animal. Daniels says there is no specific policy at APD regarding agressive animals.
Paxton's Facebook page,
Justice For Cisco
, has gathered more than 33,000 likes as of 6am Tuesday morning. APD officials say they received thousands of calls Monday from individuals expressing their outrage over the incident. The story has reached national and international media attention as well.

Controversy and outrage swirls over APD dog killing
Please Enter Your Comments Below
Let's divide the blame
Does this Paxton guy take ANY responsibility for this at all? Or does he consider himself completely blameless? Because I see a guy with a history of not taking responsibility for his dog's behavior....who left the gate open yet again....to some very unfortunate results that are MOSTLY not his fault. I know if it were my dog I would be upset with myself for not shutting the gate...after all this dog did have a history of scaring passer-by and biting strangers. While I was sympathetic at first now I wondering if maybe this clown is just a media hoe.

Closing this blog
By sebsto on juin 10, 2010
In a couple of weeks, I will be a Oracle employee. Integration is planned for July, 1st in Belgium and Luxembourg.
As I have the perception that Oracle executives are not as encouraging as Sun was letting employees blog about their work, I decided to move this blog to a private space instead.
No new entries will be posted here. I will use my personal blog at www.stormacq.com for new posts about the Java (and IT) world.
I guess these entries will stay here for later references. But, just in case, I also moved all content to my personal web site.
I am proud for having (modestly) contributed to Sun and Open Source communities and I will continue to do so on www.stormacq.com

Skip to comments.Students protest in London, Conservative HQ attacked
Posted on 11/10/2010 9:20:39 AM PST by BenLurkin
A group of demonstrators broke into the headquarters of Britain's governing Conservative party in London Wednesday, spray-painting anarchy symbols and setting off flares before being forced out of the building.
They went on to set fires outside the building.
The violence came during a largely peaceful protest by students against government plans to allow universities to increase tuition fees. The National Union of Students said 40,000 demonstrators were on the streets.
London's Metropolitan Police did not offer a crowd estimate or have any information about arrests.
Students and university staff are protesting against government plans to allow universities to charge up to 9,000 pounds (about $14,500) per year in tuition fees -- a substantial rise from the current cap.
"We are taking to the streets in unprecedented numbers to tell politicians that enough is enough," NUS president Aaron Porter said in a statement before the demonstration.
"We will not tolerate the previous generation passing on its debts to the next, nor will we pick up the bill to access a college and university education that was funded for them," he said.

Earth to spoiled brats: Stuff costs money. Money comes from wealth. Wealth comes from work. Work is hard.
These brats demonstrate the same attitude as in my soon to be ex-home of California. I DESERVE it because I WAS BORN!
I find it interesting that the Queen never weighs in on situations like this. Even though she is viewed as only a figured head, she has more power than people realize.
Is George Soros' "RUCKUS", present?
We have these kooks on campus here. I got into a debate with one about how we pay some of the lowest tuition fees in the world and I wouldn't care if they increased tuition to market levels. I thought his head was going to explode.
Gov't leaches get angry when the Gov't cuts of their smack
Nanny staters, crying for the Gov't tit.
The social leaches get angry when the Govt cuts off their smack
How many were Pakis???
I listened to a short snippet from the HOC. Britain is lost!
America is the last hope of the world. Zro needs to be Impeached.
It is the entitlement left that riots and causes violence.
Yet, take note of this quote, "We will not tolerate the previous generation passing on its debts to the next,..."
When you have a system of money that is based on EXCATELY what this states, that the bills get passed on to the next generation, ... well... would you want to pay it either???
The Republicans have better have a plan to put this country on a sound money footing, OR we WILL have riots in our country too. Even then, there will be riots from the welfare class. But there is going to be riots ANYWAY!!!!
AND the LEFT is going to use that to get what they want.
IF the repubs miss this opportunity, we will REALLY be ******.
'Govt leaches get angry when the Govt cuts of their smack'
I wonder what will happen when the US doesn't bail our California.
They haven't learned anything worthwhile from the "free" education they already received, more isn't going to fix "stupid".
If free "Government Money" isn't readily available, Universities will find ways to drop prices once the enrollment drops. If not, well, you don't need a university degree to sit on your duff and collect welfare. Oh? That's broke too? Oh dear. What will they do?
Earth to blind student hating people.
She doesn't, for the same reason that she didn't have James Hewitt tried, convicted and hanged for high treason back in 1992. Technically it is feasible, politically, it is not....
You are right. A lot of these people maybe typical naive, left-wing idiot students, but they do have a point about having to pay back the debts of previous generations. It isn't hard to sympathise with their argument on that point...
"Technically it is feasible, politically, it is not...."
I agree with this statement, but...the point is that the difference between a Republic and a Democracy. Here in the States, the President can't remove the House or the Senate or the Supreme court, but they can remove the President. The Queen or leader of another country can remove their parliments and install their own people. As you stated "politically"....it would be a disaster, but it has been done in the past. Look at Chavez.
This is but another outrage, one of many. Only last week, outnumbered by hundreds of 'ravers' illegally 'partying' in a building they illegally entered, police stood by all night and into the morning, while drugs were consumed, bottles thrown at the police and the building, private property, vandalized. Look up that one, it is just as bad, if not worse than this.
The liberals and the animals of our country are running riot.CCHQ has been trashed...and nobody will do a damn thing about it. The filthy 'protesters' happily boasted for TV cameras, unafraid of any repercussions from their behaviour.
The police, knowing tens of thousands of 'students' were turning up decided a couple of hundred police was enough, and that they only expected 'peaceful' protest.
If it were up to me that moron that made that decision would be locked up, along with the possibly hundreds that broke into the building, some throwing things off the top of it, including a fire extinguisher, narrowly missing police, almost a certain fatality avoided.
I'm so sick and tired of it, you have no idea, we are an embarrassment, the police powerless and the leftists, anarchists and other animals allowed to run riot.
We needed the police to be sent in and beat the living shit out of these people....but oh no, we can't do that, it would be against their human rights.
Someone in America, please adopt me...there is no England anymore.
You should have talked until it did.
Of course, Britain's Parliament is the only body with the authority to create new laws and raise taxes. If the Queen did use her theoretical powers to try and rule by divine right, the government would come to a screeching halt through lack of funds....
... Mind you, considering current events, we might see that anyway sooner or later...
Teargas the little brats and then throw them in prison. No excuse to do otherwise. Is this England's best and brightest?

Judge Lyle R. Anderson has considered the motion filed by Grand County against the Green River City Annexation. Judge Anderson has denied the motion.
Grand County asserts that the annexation or boundary change authorized in the 2000 election but delayed until Jan. 6, 2003, cannot now take place because of a Utah constitutional amendment effective Jan. 1, 2003. The 7th district judicial court has disagreed with Grand County. The constitutional amendment cannot fairly be read to prohibit a change from taking place that, absent this court's now overruled order, should and would have taken place in early 2001.
Grand County also asserts that the constitutional amendment and subsequent legislation make it even more obvious that the legislation authorizing the boundary change was special and therefore constitutionally infirm.
Since the original legislation conditioned any boundary change on a joint resolution of the legislature, signed by the governor, it would be difficult to be more obvious about the special nature of the legislation. Judge Anderson also asserts that in his view, it was 99.9 percent obvious that the legislature and the governor intended the Grand County-Emery County line to be the only line affected by that legislation. This constitutional amendment and new legislation makes it 99.99 percent obvious, he asserts.
Judge Anderson states that, unfortunately, since the Utah Supreme Court found the earlier legislation not to be special, this court sees little ground to expect that court to take a different view now.
This ruling in case number 0007-103 was handed down on Jan. 13.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
The Emery high baseball team hosted the Delta Rabbits in a region 8 doubleheader last Tuesday and earned a split in the two games. Emery lost a close game 3-2 in the opener and then won the second game 5-1.
Gatlan Huntington pitched a complete game in the opener and held Delta to three runs in the seven-inning game. Delta scored a single run in each of the third, fourth and fifth innings.
Emery scored their two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning. Delta pitching pretty much stifled the Emery batters all game as the Spartans were only able to get three base hits in the game and only one batter garnered a walk.
In the seventh inning, Derrick Allred led off the inning by getting on base due a Delta shortstop error. Brett Mecham followed with a base hit and both would score in the inning. The runners advanced on a bunt by Addison Collard that the pitcher fielded and threw Collard out at first. Allred scored on a ground out by Gatlan and Mecham scored on a hit by Colby Snow that was booted by the Delta second baseman.
In the second game, Mecham pitched the complete game and got the win. Mecham got Delta's first batter to ground out and then, after giving up a single, Mecham got the next batter to hit into a double play in the first inning. In the second inning, after giving up two hits and a walk, Mecham pitched out of the jam and ended the inning with two strikeouts as Delta left the bases loaded. Delta hit into another doubleplay in the third inning as the Emery defense played pretty well in the two games. Delta went down 1-2-3 in the next three innings and then Delta scored their only run of the game in the seventh inning. A single and an Emery error led to the run but Mecham followed with a strikeout and induced the final batter to ground out to shortstop.
Emery scored all five of their runs in the second inning. After three up, three down in the first inning, Blake Mortensen led off the second inning with a single. Jordan Gee advanced the runner on a ground out and then Mecham followed with a single. Colby Snow then singled to score Mortensen. Huntington then hit a sacrifice fly to right field to score Mecham. Skyler Jensen walked and Taylor Tanner hit a triple to score Snow and Jensen and Tanner scored on a single by Jason Giles.
Brett Mecham was the only other base runner the rest of the game for the Spartans. Mecham singled in the third inning, stole second base and stole third base but did not make it home.
Emery will now host Carbon in a doubleheader Tuesday and travel to Delta on Friday for a single game.

SCC Baseball Splits With Edmonds CC - In Contention For Northern Region Playoffs
The Shoreline Community College Baseball Team split a doubleheader with Edmonds Community College on Sunday at Meridian Park in Shoreline, WA, losing the first game 3-1 in extra innings and winning the second game 5-1. With the four game split against the #8 ranked team, EDCC, SCC moved into contention for the NWAACC Northern Region Playoffs.
Only 2 games separate 3rd place and 5th place. Currently, Douglas College is in third place with a 8-8 region mark, Skagit Valley is in 4th place with a 7-9 record and SCC and Bellevue College are tied for 5th place with 6-10 records. The top four teams make the region playoffs. There are two more weekends left to the season, with each team in contention playing 8 more region games. SCC plays Skagit Valley this weekend and finishes with last place Olympic College.
Game 1: The game was a pitching dual between SCC's Nic Van Der Ven and Edmonds Kevin Sheets for 4 innings with neither team scoring. EDCC moved ahead in the top of the 5th with a single run. SCC tied it up in the bottom of the 7th (7 inning game) and had the winning run on second with 1 out and 3rd with two outs, but could not score. Edmonds scored two runs in the top of 8th to win the game as SCC could not answer in the bottom of the inning.
Game 2: SCC's Jason Shaw was dominant and ran his record for the
year to 7-1. Shaw spread 7 hits over 9 innings and struckout 7 with 3 walks. The Dolphins pounded out 12 hits and scored three runs in the first two innings that Edmonds could not answer, with Josh Fitch leading the way with 3 hits including a double. Skyler Frasier and Mitch Hoveke added two hits each. Frasier had 2 RBIs and Hoveke scored two runs.
SCC is now 18-16 overall and 6-10 in the NWAACC Northern Region. SCC travels to Skagit Valley College on Saturday to play the Cardinals at 1:00pm. The Dolphins return home on Sunday to play Skagit Valley at Meridian Park at 3:00pm.

Just finished reading The Hunger Games on Kindle Fire.
Based on the limited experience of reading that one book on Kindle Fire, a few books on iPad, and lots of books on Kindles, here are my thoughts.
Note: I have read quite a few books on Nook Color (another 7″ reading tablet, which happens to be very similar to Kindle Fire).
Kindle is by far the best device for reading books
Why is Kindle better than Kindle Fire?
Kindle's eInk screen is optimized for reading. The eInk really is better than LCDs. It does not tire your eyes (which Kindle Fire does, to a noticeable amount). It does not tire your hands (which Kindle Fire does, a bit).
If a person had both, and didn't have to read in the dark, the person would almost always pick the Kindle for reading.
Things like size and weight are not things you should gloss over. If you like to read without resting the book on something, then Kindle is the best option because it is very compact and light. Kindle Fire is manageable but iPad isn't. With iPad, you absolutely must rest it on something because it's just too heavy for one-handed reading and it turns into a work-out if you do two-handed reading.
Kindle Fire provides a good reading experience, but nothing like the Kindle
If we strip away all our strong feelings of love and belonging, and look at just the quality of reading experience, then a few things stand out –
- Kindle Fire is good for reading.
- The LCD screen isn't as good as eInk. It does tire the eyes.
- The IPS LCD screen isn't very readable in sunlight. By 'isn't very' we mean 'basically isn't'.
- The weight is a bit much – you'll have to switch hands after half an hour or so. Or you'll have to get something to rest it against.
- The size is very good. Not as great as Kindle but still good. This is a BIG advantage of 7″ Tablets over 10″ and even 8.9″ Tablets. 7″ is very close to a paperback and manageable.
- Kindle Fire is very good for night reading – after you dial down the brightness.
- Kindle Fire's size and weight and wieldiness (ability to handle it easily) make it considerably better than iPad for reading. The mainstream press can throw all the 'animated page turn' nonsense it wants and claim iPad is better for reading than Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet – However, the size and weight of the 7″ Tablets are far more suited to reading.
My theory of there being LCD compatible people and LCD incompatible people seems weaker and weaker. I think it has more to do with people being in love with their device and not being willing to admit that eInk really is better for reading. OR there are just people who use a different definition of reading (one book a year) to claim LCD devices are as good for reading.
After now owning an iPhone, a Nook Color, and an iPad for over a year each, and reading quite a few books on each, it just seems to me that the feeling of 'Tablets and Smartphones are so pretty and lovable' is really the root cause of all the 'LCD is as good as eInk' claims.
You can see it in extreme effect in people who claim – LCD is fine for reading in sunlight. Just find the shade. Just dial down the brightness.
LCD compatible people = People who love their devices so much they morph LCD compatibility into themselves. A sort of placebo effect.
For anyone who claims that LCDs are just as readable as eInk:
Q1: Do you love your LCD device? Are you very fond of it?
Q2: What about the Kindle you played with for 5 minutes before dismissing it? Does it hold any more meaning for you than a hole in the wall?
That right there is why LCD seems as good to you as eInk. Everyone who owns and uses BOTH a Kindle and a Tablet (Kindle Fire, Nook Color, iPad) for a reasonable period of time (6 months) can attest to the fact that eInk really is better for reading.
Your eyes and your hands can attest to it too – ask them right after you've read a book on a LCD tablet. Ironically, the situation in which an LCD outshines a Kindle (reading at night) is the situation that most hurts your eyes and body (due to your sleep patterns being affected and due to the huge contrast between the LCD screen and the dark environment).
iPad isn't really suited for reading
Three reasons:
- LCD isn't as good as eInk. It's not even close. This includes things like tiring the eyes and not being readable in sunlight.
- The size isn't very convenient. A 10″ Tablet is quite a bit larger than a paperback. That makes it unwieldy and a horror if you're reading a book (as opposed to 10 minute snippets of reading between other things).
- The weight is a real pain. You can always rest it against something and claim the weight isn't an issue. But that introduces newer problems (reading in something other than your favorite reading positions, what it does to your neck, the reading distance becoming unoptimal). Bottom line: If you can't hold your eBook Reader in your hands while reading, that's a good hint it isn't really an eBook Reader.
There are lots of redeeming qualities for the iPad. The first few are things related to reading:
- It can be read on at night. Note: So can the 7″ Tablets and they eliminate the weight and unwieldiness problems.
- It has Color. This is admittedly important for some categories of books.
- You can get books from any store. Note: Kindle Fire allows this by letting you sideload apps from other sources. Not as convenient, but doable.
There are also things unrelated to reading: It's great for movies, it has a bigger screen, it has a touch screen, and so forth.
Qualities unrelated to reading are NOT a killer reason to buy an iPad for reading. This is something that people who don't read much don't seem to get. You aren't going to buy an umbrella if you're looking for a pair of pants just because an umbrella is rain-proof.
If you're looking for a device for reading – There's no competition. Kindle is far better than iPad, and it is clearly better than Kindle Fire.
Note: Kindle and Nook are pretty close. Nook Touch (with eInk) is going to be available on sale for $79 on Black Friday. You might want to take a look.
If you own an iPad, don't despair – You can get a Kindle for $79, or you can think yourself into being LCD compatible. Do keep in mind that the cost on your eyes and neck and wrists might not be something you'll be able to wish away. The cost on eyes part also holds for Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet.
If you're choosing between Kindle and Kindle Fire, it becomes really interesting. The weight and unwieldiness problems are gone with 7″ Tablets like Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet. So it comes down to how much you value reading. If your main reason for buying a Kindle Fire is reading, then my very strong recommendation would be to buy a Kindle 3 instead (the one with the keyboard). If your main use of the device will be for reading, then it makes sense to get the device that is the very best for reading.
For Reading: Kindle >> Kindle Fire >> iPad. For Reading: eInk >>>> LCD.

George E. Keogan Coach
Inducted in 2006
Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Inductee 1961
George "The Doctor" Keogan was considered to be a true innovator of the game. His teams at Notre Dame featured the shifting man-to-man defense and strong pivot play. In 20 seasons as coach of the Fighting Irish, Keogan never had a losing season. A student of strategy and technique, Keogan's success as Notre Dame's basketball coach rivaled that of the man who hired him for the job at Notre Dame, the legendary Fighting Irish football coach Knute Rockne. Keogan coached Notre Dame to the Helms Foundation National titles in 1927 and 1936. His record at Notre Dame was 327 wins and 96 losses, a.773 percentage. Keogan's overall collegiate record was 385- 117, and his percentage of.767 is seventh best of all time.

"These shoes are quite comfortable for having such a high heel, I wore them to a summer wedding, walked around but had to change them for dancing. Just don't plan on walking too much in them. You can see how the front tapers up and that creates a rocking sort of movement. Otherwise they are true to size, fit very securely, leather is soft and did not need to be broken in. They look great with dresses and jeans."

'Facebook murder' trials tentatively set for May
JOHNSON COUNTY, Tenn. - The four defendants in the so-called 'Facebook murders' in Johnson County, Tennessee were back in court Tuesday morning.
A preliminary May trial date was set for the three defendants yet to stand trial. Barbara and Jenelle Potter and Jamie Lynn Curd are each charged with two counts of first degree murder plus conspiracy to commit murder in connection to the 2012 killings of Billy Payne, Jr. and Billie Jean Hayworth.
They'll go back to court January 2 to determine if they will be tried together.
The judge did decide the trial will be held in Washington County, but the jury may be pulled from a different county due to publicity.
Meanwhile, Marvin Potter, who was convicted on two counts of murder earlier this month, was sentenced to 51 years on each count. They must be served consecutively. Click here to read more.
The sentence is effectively a life sentence given his age and amount of time he must spend in jail before being eligible for release.

By KEN LARSENSalt Lake City
Dear Editor,
Today at about 4:45 p.m., on KSL Radio, I heard an interview with Utah's Governor, John Huntsman. He talked about just finishing two days in Mexico in which he talked with many government officials, including Mexican President Fox. He said he negotiated economic issues, possibly including the sale in Mexico of vehicles made in Utah. He said he discussed cultural issues, as many residents of Utah are hispanics and many of them are of Mexican origin. He said he also talked about immigration of people from Mexico to Utah. I don't know if our Governor made any agreements or compacts. I don't know if he had the special consent of Congress to enter into any such agreements. I don't know if anyone cares about the US Constitution, to which our Governor is bound by his oath of office. But, just in case someone does care, Article I, Section 10, Paragraph 3 of the US Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land, says, in part, "No state shall, without the consent of Congress, ... enter into any agreement or compact with another state, or with a foreign power..."
If Governor Huntsman had a special permit from Congress, I apologize for this message. If, as Governor of Utah, he entered into any agreements with any Mexican officials, without such a permit, he would be guilty of perjury.

it doesnt really matter to me who does it, ill read the first one i see good or bad
Well yes, thank your for your motivating post.
I'm aware of you nerds who don't give a crap about quality,
yet, no need to tell us that...
Fyi, mangashare and binktopia are about the same... you could say
that mangashare does Naruto again, more interested now? Just download
both releases for this week, and then compare the quality of the cleaning and
the translations.
Zid, His comment represents the general mindset of Naruto fans, no point getting your feathers ruffled over it.
Surely you were aware that when you picked this garbage back up it wasn't going to make Bink/MS any more respected :/
Infact, I respect the group less for caving in and catering to narutards with this mainstream bullshit, Bink should just stick to releasing the niche titles like Ciguatera in my honest opinion.
I agree with you totally Sangaz, I also thought this before.
But then the following thought popped into my head whilst reading a Naruto Chapter a few weeks ago "OMG, I have no talent for cleaning scans but I could have done this just by levelling the scan and adding the translation from MH".
I think its good that Bink/MS has taken up Naruto again (I'm not really that into Naruto btw), I know it will not get us more respected maybe the opposite as what you have pointed out may be more accurate, but we as individuals and a collective do not aspire to be LQ, in all aspects of our lives. So its difficult to do something half arsed.
I know you have a great knowledge of manga/anime and I envy for that, it is why I have posted this reply out of respect of your opinion. We just have to keep the bar raised and hope others try and reach our level (some groups are trying and some groups always have) and not the opposite of us going down to theirs.
Thanks for replying Wolverine ;3
and indeed other naruto scans are subpar, reason being that groups want to make a name for themselves even when they seriously suck, But Bink has no need to make a name for themselves.
If you guys just have the urge to do it then so be it, It was the same with Minami-ke for me no real reason for scanlating it apart from a whim.
I just hope that if the fans start kicking up some e-drama over naruto (IRC filling with tards demanding thier weekly chapter) that you'll all just tell them where to stick thier complaints.
The thought of #mangashare filling with narutards is a nightmare.
You know you guys get real emotionally hurt when we don't get you your answer you wanted to see. Trust me I speak for all us Naruto fans when I see we are glad to see you guys bring this back home. We aren't going to go out and pop champagne or ride anyone's dick about it. But at the sametime realize we never begged you to start doing this again. We were unhappy you all stopped and respected why you stopped, but eventually we got over it.
So yes we are happy you are doing it again but we were satisfied with others as well. Its not like Naruto is the only thing we read.
I don't read Naruto unless I like the quality. So I am happy :)
Somehow this turns out the wrong way, this was
supposed to be an information thread for the people who care a little,
that's all. No need to get personal or anything, we do it again,
that's the only thing this thread was supposed to tell, whether you're
interested or not, is none of our business.
With that said, I'm closing this thread. Just relax guys.

Utah Envirothon Hosted High School Teams In Emery County
The Utah Envirothon, a natural resource competition for high school students was held recently at the Castle Valley Outdoors, a guest ranch facility near Emery. The event was hosted by the San Rafael Conservation District. Students, advisors and chaperones from teams around the state gathered to test their skills and knowledge about natural resource conservation.
This is the 17th anniversary of the Utah Envirothon. The Envirothon is a natural resource competition for high school students. A five-member team is tested on their knowledge of the state's natural resources - soils, aquatics, forestry, wildlife and a current environmental issue. This year's current issue was sustainable agriculture and its role in healthy communities. Students visit five field stations where they receive additional instruction and a written and hands-on problem solving test is administered without their advisor. They also competed in an oral presentation event where they are judged on their presentation and problem-solving skills.Â
The Utah Envirothon is sponsored by the Utah Association of Conservation Districts, with broad support from many statewide organizations, agencies and businesses. The San Rafael Conservation District would like to thank Pacificorp for their support of the competition.
The San Rafael Conservation District is a locally elected board. A conservation district is a legal subdivision of the state of Utah governed by a board of five supervisors elected at large from within the district. Its boundaries are based on watershed or county lines.
A conservation district supervisor is responsible for local soil and water conservation programs, just as elected county officials are responsible for county services or school district boards are responsible for education.

By RICHARD SHAWEmery County Progress publisher
The accident on Highway 6, in the Red Narrows last spring once again demonstrates how vulnerable we in eastern Utah are to disruptions of our transit system. The gasoline explosion in almost the same place as the explosive trucks demise the August before shows that something needs to be done with the road, particularly in that part of the canyon.
I know this is a refrain many of you have heard over and over again. But in light of the death of the driver of the truck, I think we need to look at everything that creates danger in that canyon.
But I want to aim this commentary at a different group of people than many writers who have complained about it have.
I could concentrate on design and the rebuilding of the road; certainly the four lane option as proposed by the Utah Department of Transportation is a great one. And either tunnels through Red Narrows or a double decker road like the one in Glenwood Springs Canyon in Colorado would help too.
More signage, which has now been installed around the infamous curve in that part of the canyon, is also of aid. The signage that UDOT has put up over the years has been of great help in letting people know they will have passing options, so they don't get so impatient.
Better enforcement, with the state putting more emphasis on placing officers in the canyon is another suggestion, and probably a good one unless you are the one getting the citation at the time.
Better education for drivers of the canyon as to the problem the route presents as they drive through it could be helpful too. Big billboards at each end warning drivers about the difficulties and the history of the canyon could possibly add to the safety. That would particularly help with out-of-state drivers who don't know how dangerous the road can be.
Some want to ban large trucks from the canyon, making them go around, using I-70. I personally think that is unrealistic, particularly in these days of high diesel and gas prices. In addition it would just hurt the economy in our area in a number of ways.
Those are all things that have been done, are in the works or ideas people have had about Highway 6. I know there are probably a lot more, so I am sorry if I left yours out.
But the best idea for safety I have heard, and probably the simplest, came from a Utah Highway Patrol official I talked with last spring. It was just this.
People who live in eastern Utah just need to slow down and drive sanely in the canyon. Of all those who transit that road, we should be the most responsible.
I can already hear the groans about this statement. We in this area want to blame the over-the-road truckers, people from Colorado and California or someone else. But we tend to forget about ourselves.
The problem is that we get used to the road. We know it is dangerous, but we drive it so much that we think we know better than other drivers because we are so familiar with it. In actuality, every single inch of that highway from Moark Junction to Green River is dangerous, especially when we don't follow the speed limit and drive it like we could do it in our sleep, which I have the feeling some from our locality do.
It's not that others on the road are not a problem. I have followed people over the canyon who are from Kansas that have never driven over a mountain before, that go way too slow, causing me and everyone behind me to become impatient. I have encountered many with Colorado plates who pass at a whim because they don't think 60 (or 85) mph is fast enough. I have had the trucker from Texas who rode my back bumper all the way down Price Canyon because he is behind schedule. And yes, I have almost been taken out by the Salt Laker who is pulling a fifth wheel behind his ton pickup with 14 motorcycles in tow on another trailer and who passes on the double line just above Emma Park Road.
Everyone who lives here has had at least a dozen of these experiences. But the fact is that if you ask law enforcement officials, they will tell you that the majority of the people that violate the law, either in speed, control or passing, in the canyon, are locals. We drive it way too fast, we are too eager to pass and we take too many chances. And the majority of the time, those are the things that cause accidents.
Consequently we are part of the problem, and not so much of the solution. We can criticize and give all the arguments and potential solutions about Highway 6 we can think of, but until we clean our own house, and become better drivers that obey the laws in the canyon, how can we expect anyone else too?

Manufacturer Recalls Bicycles for Potential Crash Danger
Sep 28
Defective Products, Personal Injury, Product Recall bicycle accidents, defective product, lawyer, personal injury Comments Off on Manufacturer Recalls Bicycles for Potential Crash Danger
Specialized Bicycle Components Inc. has issued a defective product recall for about 12,000 bicycles because a part can break off and cause riders to fall down and get injured. According to a news report in The Associated Press, the company made the announcement along with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) stating that the front fork of the bicycles can break. So far, the company has received four reports of these front forks breaking. Victims have suffered facial fractures, head and shoulder injuries as well as lacerations as a result of these defective bicycles.
The recall includes some 2008 and 2009 models of Globe bicycles for both women and men, which were sold from July 2007 through July 2012. Consumers are asked to stop using these recalled bicycles right away and take them to an authorized dealer to have the faulty fork uninstalled and replaced at no cost.
