Matters turned grim on tonight's Walking Dead — which is rather impressive for a show which tends to feature more zombie mayhem before its opening credits than Downton Abbey does in an entire season (come on, you lazy aristocratic bastards!).
Yes, the word-of-the-week was "torture" as Merle (Michael Rooker), the Governor (David Morrissey), and even Rick (Andrew Lincoln) tried to get information from, respectively, Glenn (Steven Yeun), Maggie (Lauren Cohan), and Michonne (Dana Gurira).
Elsewhere, Milton (Dallas Roberts) tried to make nice with a zombie while Daryl (Norman Reedus) made a joke about Lassie.
Below, Walking Dead executive producer — and Walking Dead comic writer — Robert Kirkman talks about tonight's show and previews next week's midseason finale. Note: We think he 's joking about the musical numbers.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: I imagine this was your intention, but I found watching the show's torture scenes to be a genuinely unsettling and discomforting experience. What was it like planning them out?
ROBERT KIRKMAN: Yeah, you know, it's a dark show. But this kind of stuff is uncomfortable for us. I think that's really the thing to note. When you work on something like [the Walking Dead], a lot of people think, "Oh, these sick and twisted people doing these crazy TV shows and comics and whatever…" But we're feeling that stuff in the writers' room as much as hopefully you are when you're sitting on your couch. But you've got to show that Woodbury is a dangerous place and these are the kind of things that would happen if they took these people captive. But we like Lauren Cohan, we like Steven Yeun. It's not easy for us either.
In the comic book it is Rick and Michonne who are tortured and brutalized at Woodbury—and for all I know that might yet happen on the TV show. But was it interesting for you to say, "Well, I did that, let's see how these other characters would react in a similar situation"?
That's my most favorite aspect of working on this show. Being able to tell the same story, adapt the story, but tweak it in a way so that it is fresh and original for me. Glenn was there in the mix in the comic book series but having Maggie there instead [of Michonne and Rick] is cool because it not only changes the story you're writing it also changes the road map a little bit moving forward so there's new things that can come out of it, which is very exciting.
I really like that there is a significant portion of our audience that is very familiar with the comic book series and when you do these things and you change things up it puts them on their toes too. It takes away that air of "Oh, I know what's coming because I'm a comic book fan." I think that's a lot of fun.
This may not be the first time I've said this, but Michael Rooker really is terrifying.
[Laughs] He's a real sweetheart. It's all acting. He's probably one of the nicest, kindest people I know, which makes it all the more shocking when you see him in these episodes.
I am now very excited for the reunion of the Dixon brothers—and of the reunion of Daryl and Glenn. I don't think Hallmark does a "Sorry my brother tortured you!" card.
Well, they may start.
I assume it wasn't a coincidence that, in addition to Merle brutalizing Glenn and the Governor terrorizing Maggie, Rick himself could be said to have briefly tortured Michonne in his quest for information. Were you trying to remind people that the dire world of the Walking Dead is affecting everyone in a negative way?
Yeah, and we're also trying to say that Rick Grimes is still evolving. This is a guy who you're not really going to be able to map out his actions very well. I don't think anyone would have expected him to do that a few episodes ago and he's still very much feeling the effects of everything he's gone through.
Carl came up with the idea of calling the baby Judith. But why did you choose that name?
That's the name of the baby in the comic and I think I was always intending that to be the grandmother's name. I thought that that sounded like a grandmother name-y kind of thing, because I thought Carl would name the kid after his grandmother. But I don't know that I ever really defined that very well in the comic book. [Laughs]
Next: "We're going to see some pretty crazy stuff."

Lions roar to Posh win
Hamer Bouazza's first goal since August set Millwall on their way to victory as the London club eased their npower Championship relegation fears with a comfortable 3-0 win at Peterborough.
Bouazza struck after five minutes before Andy Keogh found the scoresheet for the third successive match with 20 minutes remaining.
Harry Kane completed the scoring in the 89th minute with a superb 30-yarder.
The result gave Kenny Jackett's side a eight-point cushion on the teams in the bottom three.
Peterborough, meanwhile, continue to labour and are just a point better off than tonight's opponents after a sixth defeat in their last nine league matches.
Emile Sinclair was recalled to the Posh starting XI in the only change from the weekend. He came in for Daniel Kearns, who dropped down to the bench.
Millwall made three changes.
Jack Smith returned from a jaw problem along with fellow defenders Darren Ward and Scott Barron as Tony Craig, Shane Lowry and Nadjim Abdou were replaced. Craig was amongst the substitutes.
Posh, with just one home win since mid-December, made an awful start.
James Henry found space down the right-hand side and crossed for Bouazza to head home from 12 yards out.
Darren Ferguson's side struggled to get going and could only respond with long-range efforts from Paul Taylor and Matthew Briggs - both of which failed to worry Millwall goalkeeper David Forde.
Forde's opposite number Paul Jones produced a finger-tip save to prevent Kane from extending the lead midway through the first half.
Jones denied Kane again early in the second half before the teenager struck the post with a 25-yarder in the 53rd minute.
Ferguson changed things around soon afterwards with the introduction of Lee Frecklington and then Kearns. Sinclair and Briggs were the players to make way.
However, Millwall struck again in the 70th minute.
Henry was again the provider, with Keogh heading home his free-kick from the right-hand side of the penalty spot.
Keogh also scored against Peterborough at London Road in October during his loan spell at Leeds when he was a Wolves player.
Taylor tried his luck again from outside the area but, like during the first half, the Posh striker could not work Forde.
Kane capped a fine performance with a deserved goal a minute from time when he collected Forde's clearance and belted the ball past Jones from well outside the penalty area.

All Saints Day - November 1
- Alex Crain Contributor
- 2009 1 Nov
Classic American country-western singer, Tom T. Hall, once crooned: "Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'." While such self-absorbed thinking may have worked for a now passe honky-tonk hit, it is definitely not the defining characteristic of true believers. Search the Scriptures and nowhere do you find the notion of radical individualism commended. Being willing to stand alone against error is one thing, but long-term 'Lone Ranger' thinking and living flies in the face of God's basic plan for His children. As a loving Father, He wants His family to be relationally connected in local churches that are universally united in Christ around the true gospel.
Blind spots, flaws and all—how amazing is it that God calls saints those who embrace His way of justification by grace through faith in Christ alone (eph. 1:1, 15)? Incredibly, He not only calls us saints and counts us righteous in Christ (2 cor. 5:21), but also uses us in every generation to build His very kingdom. Every such follower of Christ is a part of something very big and... ancient. All Saints Day serves as an annual reminder of that.
According to one source, the tradition dates back to "about A.D. 610, when the Pantheon, turned into a Christian Church, was dedicated to all saints. Its great idea is the Unity of Christians of all ages, countries, and races in Christ, and the perfection of that unity in heaven" (1662 Book of Common Prayer).
All Saints Day also reminds us to be thankful to God for His grace. It is only by His grace that anyone is able to get the gospel right. We pray to God, the giver of grace. We do not pray to the saints (matt. 6:6), through the saints (1 tim. 2:5) or for saints who have gone to glory (seeing that they're already in heaven and don't need our prayers). Rather, we remember the saints and to allow the memory of their faith spur us on to deeper worship and greater service to the Lord.
hebrews 11 gives us examples of the great cloud of witnesses who are called so, not because they are watching us, but because they testify of God's grace to them. The testimony of past saints reminds us: "God is faithful." "The Lord is good, trust always in Him." "God's grace was sufficient for me and it will be for you too."
A hymn traditionally sung during this season is "For All the Saints." It encourages believers to look across the past 2000 years of Christian history and envision the millions who now enjoy their rest in the presence of the Lord. It is also an encouragement to thousands of believers on earth to press on, looking forward to the coming glorious day.
Take a moment to reflect on these final stanzas, which convey the unified hope of all saints in heaven and earth:
But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day;
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of glory passes on His way.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
And singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia, Alleluia!

Complete Lyrics of "For All the Saints"
(words: William How; music: Ralph Vaughan Williams)
For all the saints, who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy Name, O Jesus, be forever blessed.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress and their Might;
Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well fought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true Light.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
For the Apostles' glorious company,
Who bearing forth the Cross o'er land and sea,
Shook all the mighty world, we sing to Thee:
Alleluia, Alleluia!
For the Evangelists, by whose blest word,
Like fourfold streams, the garden of the Lord,
Is fair and fruitful, be Thy Name adored.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
For Martyrs, who with rapture kindled eye,
Saw the bright crown descending from the sky,
And seeing, grasped it, Thee we glorify.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
All are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
O may Thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold,
Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old,
And win with them the victor's crown of gold.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave, again, and arms are strong.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
The golden evening brightens in the west;
Soon, soon to faithful warriors comes their rest;
Sweet is the calm of paradise the blessed.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day;
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of glory passes on His way.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
And singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia, Alleluia!

Beer. What a beautiful thing. Cold and refreshing, it's the perfect friend after a long run.
So when it came time to drink my final wheat based, glutenous beer, I savored and nursed, knowing full well what was on the other side to replenish me. From NGB to New Planet and Omission to Brunehaut, I have covered ground to find my favorite gluten-free beer. And now I will go the distance.
To find my favorite beer, I decided to take matters into my own hands. To develop the best beer — one that stands up against the watered-down, sorghum-heavy, light perfumes out there — I would need to learn to make it myself.
For my first 5-gallon batch, may I introduce to you "The Mischief." This is a gluten free beer developed with extreme sanitary measures combined with golden naked oats, carmelized sugar, honey, Challenger and Northern Explorer hopps, distinct aromas, an iPhone timer and loads of patience.
The Mischief is currently hunkered down in a 70 degree room, settling, sifting and fermenting into my first creation, which I will welcome with a thick slice of gluten-free pizza and an episode of The Wire. Beer, pizza, cable. Back to basics.

Crowdfunding Healthcare Startups – Medstartr and Indiegogo
John Lynn is the Founder of the HealthcareScene.com blog network which currently consists of 10 blogs containing over 8000 articles with John having written over 4000 of the articles himself. These EMR and Healthcare IT related articles have been viewed over 16 million times. John also manages Healthcare IT Central and Healthcare IT Today, the leading career Health IT job board and blog. John is co-founder of InfluentialNetworks.com and Physia.com. John is highly involved in social media, and in addition to his blogs can also be found on Twitter: @techguy and @ehrandhit and LinkedIn.
I have been seeing more and more activity around the idea of using the crowds to fund various healthcare IT startup companies. This shouldn't be that surprising to any of us given the success of websites like Kickstarter and Indiegogo. They've created a whole new way to raise money for passion projects. Plus, as they've grown they've shown a new way to see if your customer really wants what you plan to offer.
One challenge is that Kickstarter generally hasn't approved healthcare startup company projects on their platform. In fact, a whole company was born to try and help solve the problem of making crowdfunding available to healthcare. This company is called MedStartr.
I've been keeping an eye on it for quite a while. So far they've had some successes with these projects getting funding: Medstartr, The Walking Gallery, Peer-to-Peer Global Support for Rare Disease, and Avado. Plus, Reconstruction Bras for Breast Cancer Survivors and Previvors have met their goal, but are still raising money.
I think the most exciting one is The Walking Gallery since it raised well over twice of the money requested. I'm interested to see how some of my friends like referralMD and My Crisis Records do on Medstartr. Their projects are still open if you want to back them.
I think the biggest challenge with Medstartr right now is that it's currently a "bring your own crowd" fundraising platform. The platform works to raise money if you already have a built in audience that is willing to pay to support it. So far, Medstartr hasn't been able to produce a large community of "backers" that can fund a project that gets listed. In fact, I don't think Medstartr even reached its fundraising goal in its campaign (although, it's listed as such on the website now).
What is also really interesting is a healthcare project that was posted on Indiegogo for a Asthma Education App. So far it has raised $7125 for Health Nuts Media who wants to create the app. That's not a bad start for their app with 27 people helping to fund that goal. Although, even that number was influenced by a $5000 commitment from Medicomp Systems makers of Medcin. I'd be interested to know how they landed that backing. That's a nice one and if they can get more of those, that will be powerful.
The good thing with Indiegogo is that whatever money is raised the project gets. In Kickstarter you have to reach your goal or the project gets $0 of funding. I haven't heard which model Medstartr has chosen to adopt.
We're still in the early days of Crowdfunding. Plus, true crowdfunding (ie. small investment for small equity) is still waiting on the official rules to be put out. That could really change how companies get funded. I'm excited about the opportunity, but cautious about the challenge of getting enough people to care about healthcare enough to support those projects.

Glamour was shot through with grit at the British Academy Film Awards on Sunday.
Frothy musical "La La Land" took five prizes including best picture, but major awards also went to tough welfare-state drama "I, Daniel Blake" and fractured-family stories "Lion" and "Manchester by the Sea."
In keeping with an awards season that has coincided with a wrenching change of government in the United States, even "La La Land's" prizes came with a political tinge.
Accepting the best-actress trophy for playing a barista who dreams of Hollywood stardom, Emma Stone said that "this country and the US, and the world seems to be going...

Jerilyn's Fresh, Light Kitchen
Like this entry? Favorite it below!
- Name:
- Jerilyn (and Zac)
- Location:
- Boise, ID
- Square Feet:
- 104
- Division:
- Own
- What makes your small kitchen so cool:
- It's incredible how much workspace we were able to add through a remodel, now we can easily have 3 people working in separate areas without bumping butts. If we could just stop arguing over that favorite knife we both love, absolute bliss would be achieved.
- Describe a challenge you've overcome or a smart resource you've found for your kitchen.:
- When the house was purchased there were only cabinets against the exterior wall, and since this galley kitchen is also part of the hallway in our compact home, we needed to maximize storage and workspace without restricting the ability to move through the house. We took down the wall that previously contained a doorway, omitted the upper cabinets and selected light colors to make the space feel less like a cave. The tile ceilings were vaulted in a separate (and much less DIY) undertaking a few months after we gutted and rebuilt the kitchen ourselves.
- What's your favorite meal to cook here?:
- Korean-inspired feasts for friends (gimbop, spicy tofu, and Korean bbq lettuce wraps).

Imagine in the next 50 years science made it possible to live for 1000 years. During that time the pollution became so thick, the smog blocked the sun. Then, no one born during this time would ever have seen the sun. As time carried on, many stopped believing there is a sun. Someone who lived during the time of the clear sky would say, "Have faith. There is a sun. We must clear the sky to see it."
Is this an irrational request? Skeptics about karma and rebirth are like these people, because an ethical life is not sufficient to clear the smog from the sky and attain the highest most sublime happiness that also puts a definitive end to samsara.

The Silent Sports crew were down in Cuba last week seeking sunny windy and warm. The week delivered 5 pretty good days ranging from 14m down to 8m, 1 cross off shit show and a light wind day that required a skimboard or SS Space Pickle powered by a Cabrinha Xbox 18 LW. The main boards used were the Shinn's, Dundee(135x44),Speedball(18W) and Supershinn (136x42)
The Supershinn has it all. Pop,Speed and Control is what comes to mind when riding this board. It can be used by pro riders right down to a beginner. In fact,our newest female rider was going upwind on the Supershinn on her 3rd day on the water.
I wanted a travel board that can cover a wide range of wind. That board would be the Dundee. I rode it with 14m in LW to wound up 8m. Granted it is pretty flat water at this spot, but this size for my weight(203 lbs) its perfect. Solid upwind performance and good off the wind speed. I found better pop and a more lively feel with pads on the wider setting. The Dundee is really manoeuvrable. This is a great freeride board,nice smooth ride,easy on my old knees.
From the moment I saw the Speedball I just had to take it for a ride. It was the 18W. Thats 132x47! This is a board I would recommend you try . It has a very skatey feel to it. This surprised me considering the Freeride finns are pretty large. Its really hard to nail this board down with a description because it is really different that any TT that I have ridden. I would not call it great in LW(the Dundee for me was better) but it planes pretty quick due to the width all over. The short rail length inhibits its LW upwind performance a bit compared to a little longer board but really, no issues going upwind. The Speedball is just so much fun! No problem riding toeside with width. Great wide platform when landing jumps. One of our lighter riders felt he needed the foot straps nearer the heel edge but his lighter weight he would be more suited to the 16W Speedball. This might sound vague, but I can't really nail this board down into a basic description. If you can try it, ride it for awhile( i spent 3hrs on it one day) and you'll get good idea if its for you.
We had the 3 versions of the Shinn foot pads. I have never had any issues with the older straps digging into my feet. The older model for me is the most cushy. The Straps of the Sneaker X(new version) are the same. The traction surface is different on the newest pad. Very easy to adjust, not only the strap,but if you want to ride more duck,no problem. All are super light.
Thats it, we had a great time,lots of kiting, lots of drinking, many shit shows(Kite on one side of the pier in water,rider on other) and lots of fun! The Shinn boards where very nice( we had the Red also but I did not ride it and those who did were to drunk to tell me about it),lol

- Premier League
Benitez: I'm one of the top eight managers in the game
Rafael Benitez has rejected suggestions that he accepted a seven-month contract at Chelsea in a bid to revive his battered reputation, after claiming he deserves his place among the elite managers in world football.
Former Liverpool manager Benitez will take charge of Chelsea for the first time against Manchester City at Stamford Bridge on Sunday with his self-belief restored to the level of his coaching glory days at Valencia and Anfield.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson may have been quick to suggest Benitez was "lucky" to be handed the keys of power at Chelsea after he was hounded out of Inter Milan in chastening fashion back in 2010, but Benitez insists he has nothing to prove as he makes his return to the Premier League.
"How many top jobs have been available in the last two years? Not too many," Benitez said. "So if you have maybe eight top managers and only one or two teams available, you do not have too many chances. For me, I was waiting for the right one and it was not there. Now I have a top club and I think I can do a good job.
"Every year you see new managers because the way football is going on, not too many people can cope with this pressure and keep winning. So I had a lot of confidence I would get a job, a good job. Which one? This one is a great opportunity. It doesn't matter that it's for seven months, even three months."
Chelsea supporters preparing a hostile welcome party for the club's new manager may dispute Benitez's confidence that he should be recognised as one of the coaching giants of the modern game. However, Benitez states that he is returning to the game with a glut of fresh ideas, believing time away from the game has allowed him to re-evaluate his coaching ideals.
"I was forced to take a break from the game after leaving Inter Milan and it has taken me until now to find a way back," he said. "What I can guarantee is when you come back you are more focused, you have better vision and you have more commitment. Sometimes when you are working, you are working so hard that you don't see everything.
"Now, when I watch the Champions League final, it gives me new ideas. You watch another game, you have an idea and so you're ready for the next challenge. For me, this challenge is at Chelsea."
Meanwhile, Benitez has suggested he holds the key to reviving £50 million misfit Fernando Torres at Chelsea, after claiming the striker he turned into a world-class superstar at Liverpool will benefit from his arrival at Stamford Bridge.
"My job now is to find out why he is not scoring as many goals as he was at Liverpool and I have my ideas," he said. "With Fernando, you have to put your arm around the shoulder and push him."

I haven't but I would. You could probably use the same keg for lagering and then put it on tap.
All my lagering is done in kegs. The first couple pints will be cloudy, but clear as a bell after that.
I am wanting to do an Octoberfest and was curious if anyone lagers in corny kegs? I have a fridg that is temperature controlled for the primary and diacetyl rest and was thinking I could rack off to a corny keg and let it sit at the lagering temp for 6 weeks.
I can't remember the last time I lagered in anything else. Works great.
50 gallons lagering in corny kegs as I type this.
Quote from: hopfenundmalz on April 11, 2013, 07:57:05 PM50 gallons lagering in corny kegs as I type this.I really need another chest freezer and more kegs so I can do this...That sounds ridiculously awesome.

Babies and small children need early treatment for asthma
symptoms to prevent severe breathing problems. They may have more serious
problems than adults because their bronchial tubes are smaller.
Although it may
appear that occasional treatment with medicines for children who have mild
asthma is enough, one review has noted that one-third of fatal asthma attacks
occurred in children who had mild asthma.1 Even if
your child's asthma does not appear severe, work with your doctor to make the
right plan for your child.

Prevention Program (NAEPP) recommends treatment with long-term medicines for

September 16, 2013 by RVBusiness 3 Comments
RV industry veterans and membership club innovators have come together to develop a new company – AmeriGO RV Club – poised to be the ultimate RV club and online community dedicated to RV enthusiasts.
Scheduled to launch in October 2013, AmeriGO RV Club "will boast outstanding value-added membership benefits, services, and discounts via a highly advanced online RV club experience," organizers reported in a Monday (Sept. 16) press release. The new website, they add, will be all-encompassing throughout the RV market and feature a mix of rich content and an inviting community, where RV enthusiasts can go to learn, research, and share everything they love about RVing.
"With decades of experience in the RV industry and having already built an amazing set of offerings with our allied partners, it is with great enthusiasm that we announce the development of AmeriGO RV Club," said Joe McAdams, chairman of AmeriGO RV Club. "Our goal in creating AmeriGO is to build a trusted resource for products, services and information that adds value and security for the RV enthusiast by providing access to and savings at our premier network of RV vendors, dealers and campgrounds."
The company's new website, soon to be introduced at AmeriGOrv.com, is being developed in partnership with Stoneacre Company – the premier provider of technological solutions for member-based organizations focused on passion-based themes with an acclaimed client roster including the official NASCAR Members Club, NFL Alumni Organization, Pepsi Stuff Loyalty Program, Yahoo!

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Mac Apps and Mac App Store' started by Shadow%20Mac, Nov 29, 2012.
while the new features are nice, how has it been performing for you?
it's so fast! I cannot even see the "bounce" effect.
i7 2011 air, 40gb library.
and it's beautiful!
(it looks like it's still very slow on windows... but who cares..)
Very fast. Much faster then 10.7
The Up Next is incredible, they made it really really good! When opening and album, the background of that window changes color to that of the cover art. Beautiful. Adding items to playlists is also great. The mini-player is finally useable and really good, all because of Up Next.
The downside is the lay-out of the Store, the horizontal scroll with sidebar on top of that.
I don't spend much time in the Store though, so for me it's minor.
I like.
The only gripe is I really liked the grid feature of the artists, rather than the being listed to the side. But I guess I'll get used to it.
But overall, it looks and works pretty slick.
All these people saying it's so fast - have you tried it in full-screen mode?
That's how I usually use iTunes. I'm finding it awfully slow. Much worse than 10.7. Once I stick it in to windowed mode, performance improves a bit. But that's not how I like to use it.
I don't love or hate this new release. The 'up next' thing is long overdue, the UI in general is nice although it clearly needs more work. So there are some positives.
On the other hand, it's become much slower for me (RMBP). Also, the column track layout is very poorly thought out (e.g. it mixes disks in to the same columns). That's something I actually think Steve Jobs would have noticed; being a long-time music lover. Typically (going right back through CDs, cassettes and vinyl), "SIDE A" and "SIDE B" were shown in separate columns. (example here).
If Apple had gone that route, the new iTunes layout would look beautiful and slide right in to music history. Right now it's just a sloppy mess.
Only thing I don't like about is that I prefer the classic view that the 'Songs' section has, but you can't display album artwork that way.
Love it.
Now it has the look of an Apple product.
Which is a good thing.
Only small thing i dont like is, i cant use the mini player when i have iTunes in full screen mode.
So for that, i will stick with Bowtie.
I really like it. Even fast with movies and TV shows stored on my NAS So far, one happy camper!
Love the 'play next' and 'add to play next'. It's what DJ (or whatever it was called) should've been.
I'm disappointed that multiple genre's didn't make it in.
Yeah, seems okay so far
I love it, much better than the previous versions.
I use it in fullscreen mode 90% of the time. it's lightning fast.
However, i have an SSD and I believe that anyone that buys/uses a new mac (post 2011) without some sort of SSD does not know what he is doing.
Love it.
It's not perfect, but it's better than the last version!
I can't really pick any of these voting options. It's better and I'm glad I updated, but I don't "love it."
Mostly, I'm confused that, after so many changes, there still seems to be a lot of confusing, messy things they didn't touch at all. Like, was this a total re-design or not? Sort of 'yes'...but just half of it?
It's just weird to me. I appreciate the things they made better, but why does it feel like thy stopped halfway?
If you click on the album art at top of iTunes you will get an album art windows just like Bowtie even in full screen... is cool.
To be honest, Im not sure what the praise is for. So I'd love to hear what I'm missing out on because we were told it would be a major overhaul butin the end it doesnt really feel much different than the last versions.
So far here's my Pros and Cons:
+ I dont seem to be dropping my wireless synching on iOS devices anymore
+ Prettier? (I dont know, i just wanted to have more than one positive note)
- Display Duplicates is gone (or moved. I cant find it and help no longer mentions it)
- iTunes Match still has no new options (fix metadata. rematching items clearly in the iTunes catalog)
- App store still ridiculously slow
- Poor duplication control. iTunes Match seems to have created a lot of duplicates that werent there before and I dont know how to safely clean it out.
Despite what appears to be complaining, I neither love nor hate the software. I just wish it was a true overhaul rather than an optimization of the same old stuff.
Edit: ARGH! 3 out of 4 of our iOS devices no longer are visible under devices... again! Its the same issue with the last few versions of iTunes where I need to plug in for it to be recognized and available for wireless sync.
I would say my only disappointment at the moment is under TV shows. If you have Multiple Seasons for Example The Walking Dead, it will only show the artwork for the first season and not the other seasons. Other than that, I like it.
Is extremely sluggish on my core 2 duo iMac.
Other then that I like it, very elegant and sleek.
what happened to Cover Flow?
is it gone?
WTF. You're right on both counts. I use Display Duplicates constantly (I add a few albums every week, and there will always be some overlap with stuff I already have).
And the iCloud duplicates thing is annoying as hell, if you've ever changed anything from the original file you downloaded, it shows up again, with the itunes store metadata.
So far I really like it, the only that kinda bothers me is that the TV shows only show cover art for the 1st season. I would much rather it just have each season as its own entity.
Poking around a bit more, I see more little annoyances. The ways albums are sorted in any view other than song list is alphabetical not chronological and there doesn't appear to be any way to change that. Correction, I found how to change the ordering, you have to go to View Options, which is different for each view. It's hidden well, but it's there.
As others have mentioned, you can no longer resize the covers in any view.
In general it seems like they took some views that have existed for years that most people were unaware of and simplified them a great deal, reducing their usefulness to the more hardcore users. I can understand this, but it doesn't please me.
I made a not great but workable alternative to this. Click on the art in the now playing window on top, reduce it to the size you want, drag it to the lower left corner. In preferences select "Keep Movie Window on top of other windows". There is an annoying drop shadow, but it's better than nothing.

The American Meat Institute has weighed in on a study published this week about eating red meat, and it objects to the study's methods and conclusions.
Researchers using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer of 449,000 people said that 3.3% of premature deaths could be prevented if the consumption of processed red meat -- sausages and bacon, for instance -- was below 20 grams per day.
But Betsy Booren, chief scientist at the American Meat Institute Foundation, issued a statement saying the study is "trying to identify a cause and effect relationship using a research approach that won't permit such conclusions to be made."
She criticized as unreliable data that come from participants trying to remember what they ate in the past.
"Then that data is run through statistical models and is presented as conclusive dietary recommendations for healthy living, when actual medical decisions should be made in consultation with your medical providers," Booren said.

I've been with my husband for 15 years and given the job I have, you'd think he would know everything there is about taking care of his skin. It couldn't be farther from the truth. Just the other day he was complaining about itchy skin and after a bit of prying, he told me he hadn't been wearing moisturizer for a few days.
Moisturizers are important. You should use one every day after you wash your face because it's going to help you look younger longer. We all want that. The boost of moisture will minimize your fine lines and help even out your skin tone. If you're not using a daily moisturizer, start. If you're already using a daily moisturizer, great, but guess what? It's not enough.
The most important thing your skin needs is protection from the sun. Every day your skin takes a beating from the UV rays. Those lines inthe corner of your eyes? They're deeper due to squinting from the sun. The tan you get in the summer? Skin damage. That one blistering sunburn you got long ago? It greatly upped your chance of developing skin cancer in your lifetime. Protecting your skin from the sun will not only keep your skin younger for much longer, it will also keep it healthier and reduce your chance of skin cancer.
Let's talk basics. Every morning you need a moisturizer. To multi-task, look for one with SPF. (Try ZENMED's Oil Free Moisturizer SPF 30) This is your first dose of sunscreen for the day and it will take you through your morning commute to work. Before you head out for lunch, especially if you're going to be outside for a while, apply a bit of sunscreen to the exposed areas of your skin about a half hour before you leave. The same before you head home.
It might sound like a drag, but sunscreen really only lasts about two hours or less and takes 20 to 30 minutes to fully start working. Look for a good facial sunscreen, preferably a mineral one like ZENMED's Mineral Sunscreen. Mineral sunscreens are typically not greasy and soak in rather quickly. If you can't find one you love, there is nothing wrong with applying a bit of your daily moisturizer with SPF throughout the day, especially if you have dry skin. Keep a bottle in your desk at work to make it easier.
The day will come when you wish you would have taken the time to slow down the ticking of the clock and really, it's as easy as sunscreen. Protecting your skin from the sun will absolutely help your skin age at a slower rate than if you don't use sunscreen at all. Plus it reduces your risk of cancer. It's a win-win!
