Dear Editor:
You recently reported in all editions of the Hudson Reporter that work has begun on a $9 billion dollar trans-Hudson passenger rail tunnel for the ARC (Access to Region's Core) program. It is appalling that NJ Transit and the Port Authority are allowed to squander billions of dollars on this poorly designed tunnel to nowhere. This tunnel will come to a dead end under 34th St. in Manhattan, 20 stories below the surface. It will not connect to Penn Station or other public transit facilities. Nor will it connect to Grand Central Station, one of the tunnel's original objectives. Train riders will have to scramble thru a maze of tunnels and escalators to reach the surface or make other transit connections.
I am dismayed that Governor Corzine, Senator Lautenberg, Senator Menendez, and the transit advocacy group Tri-State Transportation Campaign have been inveigled into supporting this project. I am sympathetic to Senator Lautenberg's homeland security concerns motivating his support for the ARC tunnel. The ARC tunnel, however, will not adequately address those concerns and will likely create new vulnerabilities.
A far cheaper, more effective, and quicker construction alternative would be to extend NYC's No. 7 subway line west to Port Authority Bus Terminal, Lincoln Harbor (Weehawken) and, above ground across the Meadowlands to Secaucus Transfer. This would allow New Jersey riders to bypass the Lincoln
Tunnel and head directly for the PA Bus Terminal or Grand Central Station. Compared to ARC, it can be built in half the time at half the cost. Please see a detailed description of this alternative proposal at

Tuck (King Raven Trilogy #3) by Stephen R. Lawhead — 9781401685393 – ****
Genre: Fantasy
Time to Read: 11 Days
Short Summary:
In this conclusion to Stephen Lawhead's King Raven Trilogy, Bran ap Brychan (aka Rhi Bran y Hud) and his comrades travel to meet with his kinsmen in hopes that they might help him and his Grellon reclaim his kingdom while Lady Merian–going against Bran's wishes–does the same and Abbot Hugo seeks to purge the forest of the King Raven once and for all. Tuck–named for the fat friar who is one of Bran's closest advisors–is full of adventure and peril as the King Raven and his men struggle for their lives and their homes, tricking their enemies in true Robin Hood style along the way.
I must confess that this third novel in the King Raven Trilogy was a slower starter for me than the others. It once again shifted point of view and–after my initial uncertainty upon starting Scarlet–I found that I missed Will Scarlet's narrative voice (It was not, however, in the Friar's point of view, instead returning to the third person that Hood was written in). I also have to note that it began to feel a little long toward the end, which may be in part because I haven't committed to a series in some time, and I was ready for a change of pace.
That being said, however, Tuck was an extraordinary conclusion to Lawhead's re-imagined Robin Hood series. Too many series that I've read have had unsatisfactory endings or ones that were too neat, like a glued jigsaw puzzle. Tuck did not let me down, and it left me wanting to visit more of Stephen R. Lawhead's books in the future.
(Please forgive the delay in my posting of this review. My new eReader makes it too easy to move on to the next book, and I quickly get lost in it and forget to blog! I promise to get better. There will be two more coming very soon!)

My Kinesis doubleshots home row are shiny and smoother than the singleshot home row.The doubleshots other than home row are less shiny and smooth than the singleshots other than home row.Can you confirm Sordna and KPS?
Just to let you know, I'd be interested in a set or 3 of Colemak (or possibly blank) key caps as well. Wouldn't mind getting rid of the stickers on the numbers row and other places, but that'd mean a slightly different layout in my case.
You mean from WASD Keyboards? PM me with the keyboards/key cap info/questions/thoughts asap.
KEY ISSUE #1 (affects 6 keys-pinky keys) (Attachment Link) 35890[/ATTACH]The extreme right row, lower 3 pinky keys are R2/P4 1.25 which is the same profile as a "G" and "H" key. The replacement keys are about 1mm taller front skirt than the original Kinesis keys (which affects the slope). Note the 2 red arrows to show the slightly high key corners. The bottom key it's not an issue, the top key you may graze the high corner. This key may not be an issue\problem, I'm just trying to get the exact replacements as a first choice.OPTION: Need R2 1.25 keys that have the actual same slope of key top. (HELP: you can compare with the "G" or "H" key, should be same exact top slope and height).
Are you using R1 1x1.25 as replacement? Or some R2 1x1.25 that is for some reason not the exact right size? Either way, doesn't all three of them have the high corners?
EDIT---The 3 pinky keys have the same profile as the R1 key caps but are 1.25 wide. I assume these are R1 1x1.25 keys. I'm checking to see if there are R2 1x1.25 key available. If there are, I think this one issue disappears.
WASD Keyboards has the following colors, laser, etching available (if not more that I don't know about): (Attachment Link) 35912[/ATTACH]And keys can always be Rit Dyed for more combinations like purple, pink, safari stripes or camo.

The moment we encounter the added r's of purp or dorg in our reading we know that we have to do with humor, and so with school-marm. The added consonants are supposed to be spoken, if the words are uttered, but, as a matter of fact, they are less often uttered than seen. The words are, indeed, largely visual forms; the humor is chiefly for the eye. [Louise Pound, "The Humorous 'R,'" "American Mercury," October 1924]She goes on to note that in British humorous writing, -ar "popularly indicates the sound of the vowel in father" and formations like larf (for laugh) "are to be read with the broad vowel but no uttered r." She also quotes Henry James on the characteristic prominence of the medial -r- sound, which tends to be dropped in England and New England, in the speech of the U.S. Midwest, "under some strange impulse received toward consonantal recovery of balance, making it present even in words from which it is absent, bringing it in everywhere as with the small vulgar effect of a sort of morose grinding of the back teeth."
The rig characteristic of a schooner has been defined as consisting essentially of two gaff sails, the after sail not being smaller than the fore, and a head sail set on a bowsprit. [OED]
Meaning "tall beer glass" is from 1879, of unknown origin.
In Baltimore in the 80s of the last century, the German-speaking householders, when they had occasion to speak of Negro servants in their presence, called them die Blaue (blues). In the 70s die Schwartze (blacks) had been used, but it was believed that the Negroes had fathomed it. [H.L. Mencken, "The American Language," Supplement I, 1945]
Science, since people must do it, is a socially embedded activity. It progresses by hunch, vision, and intuition. Much of its change through time does not record a closer approach to absolute truth, but the alteration of cultural contexts that influence it so strongly. Facts are not pure and unsullied bits of information; culture also influences what we see and how we see it. Theories, moreover, are not inexorable inductions from facts. The most creative theories are often imaginative visions imposed upon facts; the source of imagination is also strongly cultural. [Stephen Jay Gould, introduction to "The Mismeasure of Man," 1981]
Modern sense of "non-arts studies" is attested from 1670s. The distinction is commonly understood as between theoretical truth (Greek episteme) and methods for effecting practical results (tekhne), but science sometimes is used for practical applications and art for applications of skill. Main modern (restricted) sense of "body of regular or methodical observations or propositions ... concerning any subject or speculation" is attested from 1725; in 17c.-18c. this concept commonly was called philosophy. To blind (someone) with science "confuse by the use of big words or complex explanations" is attested from 1937, originally noted as a phrase from Australia and New Zealand.The word Scientology, conceived by L. Ron Hubbard, comes from the Latin scio which means "knowing, in the fullest meaning of the word" and the Greek word logos which means "study of." It means knowing how to know. Scientology is further defined as "the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, universes and other life."There was a German scientologie (A. Nordenholz, 1937).

totally mad - a nutcase ( fruitcake ) he's gone spim, he thinks he can
arithmetise the calculation of the circumferance of a circle with " pi ". well he is wrong - he never gets an exact equation anyway - this is how to do it - STEP 1 take two lengths of thin card, length of thin card 1 and length of thin card 2 - length of thin card 2 is twice the length of length of thin card 1. STEP 2 to the surface of each length of thin card stick, with ordinary glue, a length of tape measure, starting, in both cases at 0 on the tape measure. STEP 3 now turn each length of thin card into a circle by sticking one end of the length of thin card to the other. STEP 4 you can now determine the circumferance of the circle you have made from strip of thin card 1 just by looking at the tape measure you have stuck to its surface. the same applies to the circle made from strip of thin card 2. STEP 5 now take an ordinary ruler and measure the radius of the circle you made with strip of thin card 1. you now know that a circle with this radius has the circumferance of the length measured on the tape measure. the same applies to the circle made with strip of thin card 2. STEP 6 you can now build a scale - you could call these cicular inches . . . . btw this is an 8 BYTE expression - 10110000 10100000 11111100 00100100 00100100 00111111 00000101 00001101 |

Lawrence Maxwell Krauss (born May 27, 1954) is an American theoretical physicist and cosmologist who is a professor of physics, Foundation Professor of the School of Earth and Space Exploration, and director of Arizona State University's Origins Project. He is the author of several bestselling books, including The Physics of Star Trek and A Universe from Nothing. He is an advocate of scientific skepticism,[1] science education, the science of morality,[2] and is a self-proclaimed antitheist.
Contents |
Krauss was born in New York City but spent his childhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. On January 19, 1980 he married Katherine Kelley, a native of Nova Scotia. Their daughter, Lilli, was born November 23, 1984. Krauss and Kelley separated in 2010 and were divorced in 2012. Krauss received undergraduate degrees in mathematics and physics with first class honours at Carleton University (Ottawa) in 1977, and was awarded a Ph.D. in physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1982.
After some time in the Harvard Society of Fellows, he became an assistant professor at Yale University in 1985 and associate professor in 1988. He was named the Ambrose Swasey Professor of Physics, professor of astronomy, and was chairman of the physics department at Case Western Reserve University from 1993 to 2005. In 2006, Krauss led the initiative for the no confidence vote against Case Western Reserve University's president Edward M. Hundert and provost Anderson by the College of Arts and Sciences faculty. On March 2, 2006 both no-confidence votes carried: 131-44 against Hundert, and 97-68 against Anderson. In August 2008 he joined the faculty at Arizona State University as Foundation Professor in the School of Earth and Space Exploration and the Department of Physics in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and director of a university initiative, the Origins Project.[3] In 2009 he helped inaugurate this initiative with the Origins Symposium,[4] in which eighty scientists participated and three thousand people attended.
He appears in national media for public outreach in science and has written editorials for The New York Times. His opposition to intelligent design gained national prominence as a result of his 2004 appearance before the state school board of Ohio.[5]
He attended and was a speaker at the Beyond Belief symposium in November 2006 and again in October 2008. He also served on Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign science policy committee. In 2008 he was named co-president of the board of sponsors of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. In 2010 he was elected to the board of directors of the Federation of American Scientists, and in June 2011 he joined the professoriate of New College of the Humanities, a private college in London.[6]
Krauss also is a critic of string theory, which he discusses in his 2005 book, Hiding in the Mirror.[7] Another book released in March 2011 was entitled, Quantum Man: Richard Feynman's Life in Science, and a new book released in January 2012, is entitled, A Universe from Nothing: Why There is Something Rather than Nothing, with an afterword by Richard Dawkins. This became a New York Times bestseller within a week of its release, and is being translated into 20 languages. A foreword written by Christopher Hitchens was planned originally, but Hitchens died before it could be finished.[8][9] In Jan 2013 the paperback version of the book appeared, with a new preface including material on the Higgs boson and a new Q&A with the author.
A July, 2012 article in Newsweek written by Krauss wrote a long piece in the New York Times explaining the science and significance of the Higgs boson.[10]
A new full-length feature film documentary called The Unbelievers, which follows Krauss and colleague Richard Dawkins around the world as they discuss science and reason, had its world premiere at the Hot Docs International Film Festival in Toronto in April 2013.[11] A number of celebrities including Woody Allen, Werner Herzog, Cameron Diaz, Ricky Gervais, Ian McEwan, Cormac McCarthy, Sarah Silverman and others appear in the film, for which Krauss was the executive producer.
Scientific work[edit]
Working mostly in theoretical (as opposed to experimental) physics, he has published research on a great variety of topics within that field. His primary contribution is to cosmology, as he was one of the first physicists to suggest that most of the mass and energy of the universe resides in empty space, an idea now widely known as dark energy. Furthermore, Krauss has formulated a model in which the universe could have potentially come from "nothing", as outlined in his 2012 book A Universe from Nothing. Although his model agrees with experimental observation such as the shape of the universe and the energy density of the universe, it is referred to as a "plausible hypothesis".[7][12]
Krauss is one of the few living physicists referred to by Scientific American as a "public intellectual",[12] and he is the only physicist to have received awards from all three major U.S. physics societies: the American Physical Society, the American Association of Physics Teachers, and the American Institute of Physics. In 2012 he was awarded the National Science Board's Public Service Medal for his contributions to public education in science and engineering in the US.[13]
During December 2011, Krauss was named as a non-voting honorary board member for the Center for Inquiry.[14]

All Rested and Ready to Start Again?
Tuesday, March 19th, 2013Now that the wonderment that is all things SXSW is complete, are you rested and well enough to start all over?
In case you missed it (and all that was going on, I'm sure a lot of you did) both SXSW Eco and SXSW V2V had launch parties during the March event.
SXSW Eco
SXSW Eco takes place from October 7–9, 2013 at the Austin Convention Center. This is a move from the AT&T Conference Center used last year and the Hilton Downtown the inaugural year (they grow up so fast!), and is currently accepting Panel Picker submissions for the event.
Public voting on SXSW Eco Panel Picker will run from Monday, May 13, 2013 through Friday, May 24, 2013 (11:59 PM CST).
SXSW V2V takes place Sunday, August 11, 2013 through Wednesday August 14, 2013 at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada, and is currently accepting session, speaker and mentor ideas through April 5, 2013 and V2Venture entries until May 17, 2013.
So, now that you're all rested and back to normal, are you ready to get your Southby back on?
We are!

Michael Pineda Worth It for Jesus Montero
Posted by Daniel Kahaner on 22nd February 2012
Everyone knew that the Yankees were going to trade top catching prospect Jesus Montero. But no one knew it would simply be a one for one swap.
Brian Cashman took a gamble in trading the mighty Montero for Michael Pineda, a good pitching prospect, but one who has yet to prove himself as Major League ready.
As a Mets fan, by nature it is hard for me to say anything positive about the Yankees, and I laughed when I first heard about this trade, thinking, "Wow, Cashman is a fool." But after looking further into it, this may have been the move of the decade for the Yankees.
With a starting rotation that was less than stellar in the last few seasons, the Yankees have been looking to get younger with regards to starting pitching, as they have been letting Ivan Nova pitch more than expected. The Yankees kept this train of thought by trading for Pineda, the 6'8 290 pound right hander from the Mariners that makes CC Sabathia look like Steve Urkel.
The question is, who will have a bigger impact in 2012, Pineda on the mound for the Yankees? Or Montero at the dish for the Mariners? Montero showed massive power in his short stint with the Yankees, making the short porch in right field his friend rather quickly. It was a tough call to trade Montero at all due to his strong swing, but most fans knew it had to happen in order for the Yankees to upgrade their rotation (not to mention dumping AJ Burnett off on the Pirates).
The Yankees also are not lacking in the power department. With big bats like Mark Teixeira, Robinson Cano, and Alex Rodriguez holding down the heart of the order and Curtis Granderson providing a spark no matter where he is placed in the lineup, Brian Cashman felt that Montero was worth giving up for a good pitching prospect, and they got a good one.
Pineda has been clocked in the high 90's, even topping 100 mph on his fastball several times. Many scouts say he has the potential to make an immediate impact this season for New York, and could even end up being the team's number one starter by season's end. CC Sabathia might have something to say about that, of course, but the fact that Pineda has a similar build and a very live fastball could create one of the best 1-2 pitching punches in the American League. With new free agent Hiroki Kuroda, Ivan Nova, and either Phil Hughes or Freddy Garcia behind them in the rotation, the Yankees pitching staff could be poised to help the Bronx Bombers to the World Series for the first time since 2009, when they defeated the Philadelphia Phillies for their 27th championship.
Overall, Pineda appears to be the real deal. Trading proven hitting talent for pitching is always a gamble, as pitching is never a sure thing in this day and age, but the Yankees appear to have reeled in an ace.

The watch is a bit larger then the actual picture shows, but i love chunky watches so very pleased.

Kors Bradshaw Chrono
Great buying experience; speedy delivery all the way to Australia and WOW the packaging! Coulda put eggs in there and they wouldn't have broken. Surprised that it was larger than the 'Medium' as per description but hey, watches are getting larger. Maybe 'Medium-Large' would be more accurate? It's a unique beautiful timepiece and the distinctive gold/tortoiseshell combo is a killer look; so sophisticated and yet daring. Since it is a gift I was pleased with the excellent presentation. This is a Chronograph that exudes intelligence, sophistication, adventure, urbanity and new fashion ideas, without straying into the questionable world of 'bling.' It also tells the time with advanced Chrono features and 5ATM water-resistance, so adds a racy, sporty undertone to the urbane veneer. I kinda fell in love with it upon opening, the same way I love the one who it is for.

Female Hunters
By: Sam Nichols
Updated: November 17, 2008
Here in Texas, many women, when they were young, tagged along with their dads and granddads, and now, they want to recapture those good memories. Most of these ladies seem to really enjoy the family time around a campfire with their husbands and children, away from computers and television.
Many times women are not taken seriously when they first mention to their husbands or boyfriends that they are interested in hunting. These same men are surprised to discover, however, that women have some unique insights out in the field.
If you are curious about taking up the sport of hunting, there are several websites dedicated to women who hunt, and these sites have some helpful information.

I've been posting stuff on Facebook about the SS lesson I'm prepping for this week. I thought it might be good enough to merit a thread and perhaps y'all can help me in final prep. This will be several posts in succession as I have posted them on FB.
"Very Important SS lesson for my 4th grade boys this week: the Roman Road. Pray for them and me as there might be one who has not committed his life to Jesus. Pray for Devin, Cameron, Zach, John Michael, Robert, Cooper, Gage, Michael, Aaron, Ethan, Dominique and Christian. Pray they will understand how to use the scriptures of the Roman Road along with their testimonies to share Jesus with others."

Hello Kyle,
Last summer I had a tremendous squash failure. My zuchinni squash grew into monstrosities that nearly choked the life out of some other plants. I was excited when I saw them flower, but then…..no fruit. None. Zero Zuchinni. I was an unhappy gardener.
Note: This is apparently because squash plants have genders! Go figure! I either had all gals or all guys but either way, I was left out of the party.
If only I had read this article on eating Squash Blossoms! I see them now for sale at farmer's markets and hope that even if he squash fail in the fruit again, the flowers will see me through!
Check out this lovely NPR article on edible flora, especially squash blossoms.
And Kyle, I'm frightened of some forms of foraging in a city of both dogs and people peeing in public, but I simply have to also pass along this article on some wild edibles to you who live in a much more abundant and not so scary greenery.
Eating Dandelions! Next time I'm in town we should weed your yard for lunch!
Hope you are getting a wonderful harvest, my friend. Are you tracking your goods in any way?

My exact same thoughts. The EP121 should be in there.
Tabletaholic Says:
June 14th, 2011 at 9:33 pmNot sure how the playbook gets a thumbs down, the fixes will be out in the next month (along with the ability to us android app) and this will make it one of the top tablets on the market, good peformance and good app selection when this happens
Anonymous Says:
June 15th, 2011 at 11:25 amI think you summed it up quite well the reason why it shouldn't be recommended: the fixes are not out yet, and from your logic it follows that today it
1- is broken else it need not be fixed
2- performance is not where it should be hence the need for a fix
3- there is not much of a selection when to comes to software, because that could only possibly happen after the proposed fixes are out.Do you have access to the beta version which they are working on to even confirm that they will fix all that you've mentioned? If not it's just a promise. I'll believe it when I see it.
For now, just get something that works today guys.

October 15th, 2011 at 7:55 amThis is bull s***! Avoid BlackBerry Playbook because it is buggy OS? are you kidding me, this is new OS and yes it is still work in progress and there will be bugs for several version after current one, that doesn't mean that users should avoid this. it has superb hardware inside, much better than Apple and Samsung (that you prefer), not one device has 802.11 A standard integrated in, only Playbook has. But hey apple got 10 hours of working/hm. watching porn over internet… my question is why don't you think twice before you suggest freaking iCrap device? after upgrade of iOS5, the device works like crap. I hate when there are so called tech sites, that are actually advertising particular companies (just because they were payed to do so)… lame…

November 20th, 2011 at 8:46 pmI got a Archos 7.0 for my daughter. It is Ok for her. Can not get Netflix. That sucks. For the $$$$. It is worth it for a kid.
Jude Says:
November 27th, 2011 at 5:45 pmI own a Sony S tablet and it's a great tablet. I looked at the other tablets at Best Buy but the different design makes the Sony so much more comfortable to hold and it's 9.4″ inch screen is just the right size for me. It never lags and runs fast. It has a sd card slot which was a must for me to load ebooks on.

December 7th, 2011 at 1:46 pmHow does the Lenovo thinkpad win your shootout and then not get recommended?
mayorbob Says:
December 10th, 2011 at 10:43 amI don't understand why the Toshiba tablet is left out. The 2 USB ports are really handy as is adding in more memory 2 diifferent ways at same time. This is awesome if you are a photographer. Also carrying spare batteries is very handy in the wild. This tablet is way ahead of the others in my mind but it does depend on how will use your tablet.
Indoor Says:
December 12th, 2011 at 11:09 pmThe Sony tablet S is the only different tables in the planet. Better than the Ipad IMHO.
Bill C Says:
December 26th, 2011 at 7:47 pmToshiba's Thrive got my vote…Full sized USB, HDMI, SD card plus changeable batteries. Not having to carry a bunch of cables and adapters was the decision maker. The user changeable battery was also a major consideration.
Gregory Says:
December 27th, 2011 at 8:16 amI agree on what Dovla said about PlayBook's buggy OS, Android has been most of its life in that stage and it is still filled with bugs and stutters and even Galaxy Nexus works like a broken phone, with lags, freezes and force closes. However, the point is not only the bugginess of the OS, it is also about support and a huge number of developers. You can find absolutely anything for Android or iOS but it is a different story with PlayBook. It looks like it is dying out so personally I wouldn't recommend it to a friend, while i would recommend an iPad or an Android device, depending on the needs and personality.
I disagree on Samsung, it is a piece of garbage, add quite a few widgets to your home screen and your device will perform somewhat close to being broken, if I knew nothing about Android I would probably assume the device is broken. User experience on Samsung's 8.9 and 10 is awful, unless you clean your mem, run custom roms and all the rest of garbage that an average consumer wouldn't even want to think about, let alone do it.
In my opinion Sony Tablet S and Galaxy Tab Plus should be on the list.
Gregory Says:
December 27th, 2011 at 8:18 amP.S. Toshiba and XOOM are not bad for this list either.
A Smart Guy Says:
February 25th, 2012 at 10:26 pmWhy put Ipad 2 on the "To Buy" list if Ipad 3 is most likely going to come out in the following month??
Robert Says:
February 25th, 2012 at 11:46 pmAcer??? One of the best tabs for sure !
MaxTechRoom Says:
March 11th, 2012 at 5:16 pmAnother Apple advocate . . . I bought my wife a Toshiba Thrive and it has more functionality than any of the "i" gadgets. She even has a "Mobile Hotspot" cell card that gives her connectivity anywhere a Verizon cell tower is. And she doesn't need an external gadget to interface with USB devices. Android 3.2, it works well.
dania Says:
March 18th, 2012 at 2:26 amWell, to each our own. I went for a Windows slate with the purpose of using MSOneNote 2010 as a digital notebook, and light for me. Fujitsu slate which might not be for everyone. With the playbook firesale I went for one as well and with the OS2 update my old bluetooth phones work with it so it's now replaced my music player and I use it to go across the internet and with various other multimedia things.
Paul Says:
April 17th, 2012 at 9:31 pmHi,
Have been using the Acer Iconia A500 tab since November. Runs Android 3.2 with the ICS update scheduled for 4/27/2012. Plenty fast, full size USB port, heavy, but solidly built…I love it. I use it all the time in public and I love when someone asks me how I like my iPAD. While I do like the iPAD I tell them, I show them the Acer. After seeing it run for a bit, most people seem impressed will all the extra features it comes with. Only paid $299 on Black Friday, so quite the deal. I know the iPAD OS runs smoother, but using the two tablets for a while, the Acer does a fine job, too. I think the Acer should be added to the list of Android tablets to consider. Thanks. -

August 19th, 2012 at 5:03 pmIf you don't have a Kindle Fire then all you have is an over priced paper weight.
Plasnum Says:
August 22nd, 2012 at 3:26 pmGot the ipad 3 works good, good performance but u know nothing out of the ordinary but none the less a good device. I however believe the blackberry playbook is a better tablet.
Gareth Says:
September 7th, 2012 at 3:54 amWhen I saw the Ipad at the top I knew this article was crap. The title of the article is best tablets "TO BUY" – Which the Ipad is not cause it is overpriced and overhyped.
Karan Says:
September 16th, 2012 at 1:10 pmacer ?? is it make any sense
Marty Says:
October 10th, 2012 at 6:06 pmWhy would you say avoid the 13″ Toshiba Excite, just because it is more expensive? It may have a limited audience, but why is that an "avoid". Di you give iMacs the "Avoid" tag for desktops as well because they are overpriced too? What about the Toshiba 10″ and 7″ Excites? They are well rounded units that don't even get mentioned in your article, and are much more popular than the 13″.
Russell Says:
November 23rd, 2012 at 12:43 amThe $199 7″ & the $299 8.9″ Kindle Fire HD have a high screen resolution that is capable of displaying HD content. Only the $499 ipad3 retina can make the same claim.
Both Kindle Fire HDs have 2 speakers at the left and right side of the unit for great stereo sound. The ipad's speakers are at the bottom of the unit which sounds awful and has no stereo imaging.
Both Kindle Fire HDs have MIMO technology that uses 2 antennas for excellent wifi reception which results in faster downloads and streaming. No other tablet has it.
No matter what type of media…movies, music, books, photos and web pages look better and sound better on the Kindle Fire HD than ANY iPad.
JJ Says:
November 23rd, 2012 at 12:09 pmI would include Blackberry Playbook in this list.
Despite the fact that its app market has not caught up with android and apple app markets, playbook remains the best tablet in the market. I own, an ipad 2, motorola xoom, and playbook, the only advantage the other two might have is bigger screen, since playbooks come in 7″.
anyway,.. please avoid making biased reviews, give credit to all the "top" tablets equally. -
KM Says:
December 6th, 2012 at 8:53 pmI am a parent trying to by a reasonably priced tablet for a 5 year old that can operate an Ipad. Any suggestions?
Bianca Says:
December 14th, 2012 at 9:48 pmThanks for pointing out some of the best and some of the worst. I didn't know that it would be so difficult to pick the perfect tablet, but I keep hearing from many of my friends and coworkers at DISH that the new iPad is the way to go for what I'm looking for. I want to give my brother a tablet to work with the new DISH Remote Access app that he's been using on his Smartphone, but he's been complaining that the screen is too small. I just need something 7" or larger so that he can watch live TV or his DVR recordings and actually see what he's watching. The app has given him something to do on his downtime at work, and since I keep hearing that the iPad's Retina display is unmatched by any other tablet, I believe that I've found my answer. Thanks!
Cory D Says:
December 16th, 2012 at 4:59 pmThis article is so outdated. the Galaxy Note 10.1 is an excellent tablet and I intend to buy one in the new year. the Galaxy Tab 2 is also a very good tablet. Outside of the iPad's screen, it does not compare to the Note 10.1 (Quad processor and 2 GB of RAM with the Jelly Bean update rolling out as we speak.
You want a toy? Get an iPad. IMHO, it is over-priced. The Note has Work and play (plus a MicroSD slot for up to 32 GB of extra storage). iPad does not have any built-in expansion. You get what you get.
Plus the fact the software that is included with the Note 10.1, it itself, makes it worth the coin to get it.
Dave's iPad 3 Says:
December 20th, 2012 at 10:52 pmThere is a reason why Apple rules the roost. Best build quality, so many more "built for iPad 3/4 retina" APP's. Samsung, an old Korean Company I remember from the 90′s, gained popularity to compete with Sony. Want a new tablet every other month, buy a Samsung. Want to feed Amazon's digital wallet, buy a Kindle. What good, tell me please, is a HDTV with no or very little HD content? My Motorola Droid Razr is a great 4.3″ mini tablet, dual core powerhouse. Want to be productive and have fun, save up yer cash and buy an iPad 3 or 4. Otherwise you will be beta testing Android and Windows RT forever. I know, I did.
isaac Says:
December 24th, 2012 at 1:18 pmI can't believe it that the ipad Beat, way better tablets like the xoom Acer iconia, Playbook, Samsung galaxy, Toshiba thrive etc. They are all so much better because most of them run on android and aren't overpriced pieces of junk, the ipad is only expensive because of the name, android is many times better because of the larger app store,android isn't against rooting your device, and you can download stuff off the internet that isn't from the app store, believe me I own a apple and a android tablet and I just let the apple one sit in the corner while I have fun on my android
mike smith Says:
December 27th, 2012 at 6:00 amWhy do do many people love and hate apple,plz explain, now i have my reasons but am a programmer,so my idsue is the languages. As for the tech its all the same just with 2 or 3 languages on them. I prefere Android as I program in android and am not keen on the other languages. Even most of the people who review them have no idea what there on about,people make me laugh,you wana find a good tablet? Go to a shop and.try them urself,there all similar as they all do same thing
Nik Says:
January 5th, 2013 at 2:51 pmThe iPad 5th generation may come out in march so the iPad 4 is a waste of money. It's not even much better than the 3.
Ken Says:
January 10th, 2013 at 2:37 pmApples ipad is the best tablet hands down. I am a software developer. It's much easier to developer software for android, but unfortunately it rarely sells as well or works as well as ipad software. I could be biased because the iPads have made me a fortune, but go to best buy and compare for yourself. The new kindle fire hd 8.7 is pretty cool too, if you can't afford an ipad.
Faazel Says:
January 30th, 2013 at 10:52 pmSONY Tablet S has poor design for it power supply connector. Just after the 1 year warranty period the pins now do not have good contact anymore thereby not charging. Sony answer is buy a new power supply for $70. Not a good response. I will definitely go for a IPAD more reliable. Have used my IPOD charger for three years now without a single glitch. Else I might be shelling out $70 every year.
Kris mcgovern Says:
January 31st, 2013 at 2:22 pmI love my iPad its easy and the retina display is great. However I bought my son for Xmas an asus nexus 7google tablet. He loved it and it supports flash which the iPad does not and its more customizable. So I'm going to pick the 7inch quad ore asus nexus 7 google tablet 32 gig and the picture is beautiful.my son is a techie and he wouldn't trade this for the world! It also fits in his back pocket he brings it with him everywhere I know it doesn't have a rear camera but due to the front camera still able to Skype and this thing flies! It's so fast do to its quad core I only paid 250$ for it so in my mind it was an excellent gift that packs a whole punch for the money. My son is in college and not a day goes by that he doesn't thank me for it. He purchased a case and a stylus for it and it has Corning glass and a nice rubber like backing which makes it easy to hold. We both think that the iPad is great but way too expensive and after a while you get bored with it and it devalues very quickly my biggest pet peace with it is that it doesn't support adobe flash! For the money they should get with the program and give us more! My son even gets great free apps from the google play store he's used my iPad and he totally loves his asus nexus 7 google tablet much better and so do I ! I wish I could trade mine in its a 3rd gen iPad with retina display for what I bought him oh and it constantly updates which the iPad does not so I hope I have answered your question adequately enough ! People go get one and try it out its awesome!
Kevin Says:
March 6th, 2013 at 5:41 pmJust one question. why would you compare a tablets to one PC? Surface pro 8 is a Full PC. you can run any app ever produced for a pc. you are not stuck with what is in a app store. I have several app that have been written for a PC that will never run on any of your tables. So if you want to be tied to a store have at your junk. but stop comparing it to the Surface PRO. Just not the same thing. And about your 4.5 hour battery life (what a crock). We use it for your sales reps to go out and take orders 10 to 11 hour days and they never have to recharge because of the battery saving the surface does. of course you cannot watch a lot of videos or play games on it without the battery taking a hit, But again this is not a toy like your tablets.
So go play with your things while those of us with the Surface Pro get some work done -
MarcM Says:
March 10th, 2013 at 1:20 pmAnother article written by a Apple fanboy….. probably never ever used a surface.
Enjoy that apple stock, I suggest you sell soon….
As the windows 8 interface is adopted nationwide and the tablets get better and cheaper, we'll see where apple is in a few years.
Remember their history… proprietary hardware has led to them basically going out of business twice.. its only a matter of time until competition catches and surpasses them and their business model collapses again.
extraneus Says:
March 12th, 2013 at 3:24 pmAvoid Surface Pro? Really? No place to put the stylus? How about in your pocket or on the table? Where do you put a stylus for the iPad? Underwhelming camera? On a tablet? Who cares?!? ALL tablets have crap cameras, including your beloved iPad. And guess what? It doesn't matter cause friggin noone uses them. Battery life is fairly low, but that's obviously a sacrifice to a more powerful processor, so no surprise here. I smell shameless Apple fanboys / MS haters…
NonAppleFan Says:
March 25th, 2013 at 3:18 pmI was wondering how did Apple pay you ………
Karla McClain Says:
April 12th, 2013 at 11:07 pmI am disabled and spend a lot of time in bed, Please tell me what if any tablet would work best for me.
I am looking for a tablet that I can do Hulu plus and Netflix on, as well as Facebook, email, iTunes, and the kindle app.
I am wondering if any of these have USB ports or can interface with my lap top to download documents. I would just use my home wireless as I don't have a data contract on my phone.
Please, would any of these cover all of the things I would like to have or do I have to give something up?
Thank you in advance for your help.

April 19th, 2013 at 2:57 amSamsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is a perfect Christmas treat! I have it and I have to say that it's awesome, totally 9/10. More affordable than the Note 10.1.
dave Says:
April 23rd, 2013 at 11:01 amrelax guys its only someones opinion on a website, you don't have to agree with it. perhaps if you spent less time glued to your tablet and more time actually living life you might be less uptight
joey Says:
April 27th, 2013 at 12:03 amwhat about the La Pan tablet? is it any good?
Jasmine Says:
April 27th, 2013 at 2:30 pmI actually agree with his placement of the surface and I honestly hate apple. My personal experience with windows 8 on my computer and on a tablet has left me wanting more. I prefer windows 7 on my laptop and I feel more productive with an Android device than a windows 8. Although I hate to admit it, apple does have more support in the app department especially in real estate, medical, and educational apps, but android isn't too bad off. I can't see windows 8 catching up any time soon…
Jack Says:
June 5th, 2013 at 9:41 pmThe Nexus 10 is one of the quickest tabs I have used, and I have used a bunch. With th 2 GB of memory , the 1.7 ghz, processor and besr screen ( ipad dam good ), make it, in my opinion, the best tab out.

Discovery and the Final Frontier
Category: Sense of Place
Photo and caption by Michelle Novak
Sleepy eyed, yet determined at 6:22am on April 5th, 2010 to capture the beauty of Space Shuttle Discovery's second to last launch from pad 39A, I perched atop one of my favorite roosting places. Awestruck, I watched the light from the rising sun dance along the contrail of smoke as Discovery lifted into orbit. As she got farther and farther away she morphed into this jellyfish like orb, a sight I've never before seen. This launch was incredibly special.
Location: Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA

It is the author and publisher of the article, "Is New York's Mayor Bloomberg clueless or criminally indifferent?" that is clueless. We were all informed long ago that the marathon was cancelled and I am sure that the resources have long since been redistributed to where they were needed.

DOBSON — Music, dancing and appearances by a national radio personality are on the agenda for this year's Surry Old-Time Fiddler's Convention, according to officials with the Surry County Tourism Development Authority.
The fourth annual convention is set for March 22-23 at Surry Community College.
This year, noted fiddler and National Public Radio personality Paul Brown will host a fiddle workshop during the convention, said Craig Distl of the Authority.
As in the past, the weekend of music is open to the public, and is designed to celebrate Surry County's stature as the epicenter of the old-time music genre.
Convention highlights include a Friday night dance featuring three bands, a Saturday full of jam sessions and fiddling competitions as well as multiple workshops led by renowned experts in old-time music.
"This will be our fourth year, and all have been successful and well-received," said convention committee member Buck Buckner. "To have so many folks show up is heartwarming, because it shows that the tradition is still alive."
Buckner said he is especially fond of Friday evening's dance because "it replicates the atmosphere of those many evenings across the region when folks gather for music, dancing and fellowship."
This year's dance features music by Zephyr Lightning Bolts, the Slate Mountain Ramblers and the Mountain Park Old-Time Band.
On Saturday, four workshops highlight a day full of events.
In addition to Brown's fiddle workshop, Adam Hurt will host a workshop on the banjo. Hurt has been deemed a "banjo virtuoso" by The Washington Post.
Guitarist Beth Hartness of Greensboro will host a guitar workshop as well on Saturday, and dance instructor Samantha Wilhelmi will present a workshop on traditional dance.
In addition, Saturday's agenda includes a youth dance competition, luthier displays and music competitions for both individuals and bands.
According to Distl, last year's band competition attracted two dozen entries.
Admission is $5 daily, with children 12 and under admitted free. Contestants in Saturday's competition also are admitted free.

October 29 – Happy Birthday Frank Baker
The 1970 Yankees had surprised everyone including me by finishing in second place in the AL East with the impressive total of 93 wins. That unexpected success put a lot of pressure on manager Ralph Houk to not only prove his team was that good but to also come up with a plan for making up the 15 games that had separated the second place Bronx Bombers from their division foes, the 1970 World Champion Baltimore Orioles.
The New York skipper was telling the press that the Yankee bullpen was one of the league's best, thanks to the righty/lefty duo of veterans Jack Aker and Lindy McDaniel. He felt Mel Stottlemyre, Fritz Peterson and Stan Bahnsen were as good as any team's first three starting pitchers. He touted Bobby Murcer, Roy White and 1970 AL Rookie of the Year Thurman Munson as the foundation of an efficient run-producing lineup. His goals that spring were to find a fourth starting pitcher and a corner infielder with some home run power. He also expected today's Pinstripe Birthday Celebrant to replace Gene Michael as the Yankees' starting shortstop.
It wouldn't be the first time the franchise was counting on a "Frank Baker" to help the team compete for an AL Pennant. Over a half century earlier, the Yankees had purchased the contract of Hall of Famer Frank "Home Run" Baker from the Philadelphia A's. By the time that Frank Baker retired after the 1922 season, he had helped the Yankees make it to the franchise's first two Fall Classics.
The "Frank Baker" Houk was introducing was a sleek fielding shortstop who had spent the previous four seasons playing that position brilliantly for the Yankee's Syracuse Chiefs. But I had the same question everyone else had about Baker. Could the guy hit?
The shortstop he was replacing was Gene Michael. Nicknamed "Stick," Michael was a mediocre switch hitter who would average just .229 lifetime, but he had somehow managed to hit a career high .272 during the 1969 season. That blip caused the Yankees to keep Michael at short instead of Baker for the 1970 season. When Stick reverted to form by averaging just .214 the following year, Houk was determined to move forward with the switch. Baker had been a career .250 hitter at the minor league level and had hit at that same level during a 1970 call-up from Syracuse. I remember clearly thinking that he would not make a huge impact offensively for the Yankees in 1971 and I was correct. In fact, he was so unimpressive in that year's spring training season that Houk kept Michael as the team's starting shortstop. Baker ended up seeing action in just 43 games that year and his batting average was a putrid .139. He found himself back in Syracuse the following year and was then traded to the Orioles in 1973. Meanwhile, Gene Michael kept starting at short for New York until 1974, finally losing the job to Jim Mason.
Baker shares his birthday with this former Yankee outfielder and with this one as well.
