Hi there, I have a 2013 macbook pro, and have a seagate hard drive and am looking into a RAID system. From my understanding RAID 5 or 6 is the best choice for image security and speed; does anyone have any brand recommendations they could offer? I'm looking into spending in the $500 range, not sure if this is even viable or if RAID is all it's cracked up to be. Thank you guys for your help, it's always really appreciated.

Hi Kay
Are you looking for drives that will mirror each other?
If so, I bought the G-SAFE system about 4-5 years ago. 2x 3TB drives in one housing which use USB to plug into my iMac and mirror each other. I use Good Sync software to sync my LR photo collection to the drives - which automatically mirror.
I also have a third G-SAFE 3TB drive which I rotate in and out of the G-SAFE housing with the other two drives so having 3 copies plus the original on my iMac. The third copy is kept "off-site" in a Pelican case!
I have been really pleased with this system and feel very confident in its backup capabilities. I think, at the time, it cost about £400 and it has proved very reliable.
G-Technology is the manufacturer and there is now an updated system.

Just my opinion, but I would recommend RAID 5 minimum. The optimum RAID solution these days is any NAS (network attached storage). You might be able to get a package deal, but bought individually you will need to buy the bare NAS box plus 4 identical hard drives. I recommend 2TB or greater for the HDD as these things are getting pretty cheap.
Buy the biggest hard drives you can afford. Look for a "hot swap" NAS, and one that you can just plug drives into (or remove) without having to attach carriers.
The benefit of RAID 5 is that it will detect one bad drive and let you "hot swap" that drive while the system is running. It will then rebuild the "volume" (all the drives make up a volume) without losing any data.
So RAID 5 = single drive failure correction, more than one drive fails it will detect but you lose your data. That's pretty rare.
There are other levels of RAID like basic mirroring with 2 drives, or even the super-fancy RAID 10 which is RAID 5 + mirroring (so lots of drives needed).
I am running a LG NAS box that's discontinued, but also run a DROBO which I got cheap and love. The advantage of the DROBO if you can afford it is that mine has 8 drive slots, and you can just plug in ANY drives and it will calculate an optimal use and RAID level for them. I started with like 6 scrounged drives, but now have 4 x 4TB drives for lots and lots of RAID 5 storage.
Last point - if you don't have a good backup program that will back up all your important stuff EVERY DAY, you will lose data someday. Probably when you really needed it.

Hey guys, very solid advice. Tim, that is pretty much what I was looking for I believe, is that considered RAID 5? Also, sunnyboy, is there a particular brand you use for the hard drives? I have used seagate and they seem ok. Also, when you say 'lose data' (*shudders), do you mean if I am not uploading images daily, or even turning on my drives daily, that they may fail? What would be considered a backup program? Thank you both, really appreciate your help.

Sorry Katy, I have no idea which RAID it is (!) and I'm not at home at the moment to check.
Really useful advice from sunnyboy.

You might also look at Drobo. Not Raid but it has the advantage of using drives of different sizes. We have 5 of them running continuously; 2 for video, 2 for photos and one backing up general stuff. For drives for any NAS/Drobo/Raid box make sure you get NAS drives. I have a mix of Hitachi/WD/Seagates in my Drobos.

Yes, RAID 5 is what you want. I've used Seagate and Western Digital drives in my NAS boxes - whatever is cheapest at the time I bought them. I do not like to mix drive brands. I normally like to buy all 4 at one time.
As for data protection, 2 weeks ago I had one WD drive go bad in my LG box. I got the yellow light and warning that a drive had failed, so found another identical spec drive on amazon and bought it. Once arrived I just unplugged the dead drive and plugged in the new drive and about a day later the system was rebult and working. NO DATA LOSS. (it does take time to rebuild the volume when a drive is replaced).
With RAID 5, if one drive fails and you replace it fairly quickly, you will not lose data. If two drives fail, you WILL lose data, even with RAID5.
If you don't back up your computer frequently and it dies, you lose whatever was on it since the last backup. That's why I back up every day at about 1am.
DROBO does support RAID 5, as my main NAS these days is an 8-bay DROBO and it's running 4 drives (4TB each) and is running RAID 5.
Just to give you an idea, I've been "doing" computer stuff since 1979, and used to back up stuff on floppy, then CD, then DVD, then Blue-Ray and finally now RAID storage devices. My system has a 4TB data drive that is backed up daily to a server with the same single 4TB drive, then backed up to an LG NAS with 4x2TB drives and finally backed up to a DROBO with 4x4TB drives. Yes, I have THREE backups done every day after midnight.
Even with that, if my main computer were to crash at say 7pm, I would lose the day's work. Since backup programs can be run manually, if I were extra cautious, ever time I upload photos to the data drive I *could* run the backup to make sure they were saved. I don't because I'm probably getting complacent as I've not lost photos yet.
I have photos backed up including scanned slides from the '70s, so around 90GB total representing about 32000+ photos.

It seems clear from the Drobo literature that they are not doing RAID in the ISO spec sense. You can use multiple drive sizes for example in a single box (not possible with traditional RAID). In any case worth looking at; the 5D version is quite fast.

As a retired IT guy I would recommend buying a spare drive for a RAID 5 array. When a drive fails a few years down the road locating an identical replacement can be a problem. If a spare is on the shelf it is a quick and painless fix.
Posted 30 July 2017 - 04:04 PM
Adam: While that is true in theory, i had a couple of Wiebetech enclosures die and no other array could read the drives. Maybe if they are from the same manufacturer with the same firmware it might work.

As a server/infrastructure admin in my day job, I have to stress a point: RAID is not a backup! RAID provides business continuance in the case of a certain class of failures, though it is by no means a guarantee by itself. Furthermore, RAID5 is the least reliable type of RAID besides RAID0 (which, by strict definition, is not RAID at all), especially as your arrays get bigger.
To illustrate, imagine an 8-drive RAID5 array where a drive fails - you're immediately in degraded mode, where reads have to be reconstituted from parity data, and any additional drive failure kills your array dead. Then, once you replace the failed drive, or your hot-spare (if you have one) kicks in, the array, while still degraded, is put into maximum stress mode - the rebuild process reads all the data from all the drives to build the blocks on the new drive, and that's where one of three things can happen: (1) everything is fine, the array is rebuilt and you go back into normal mode, (2) another drive fails under stress (and drives from a single batch sometimes fail close together) and your array dies, or (3) as your data is rebuilt, a bad block is discovered on one of the remaining drives, and with redundancy gone, it cannot be rebuilt, resulting in a condition known as 'punctured stripe' - your array is still online, but some data is bad, and normally you will need to destroy the array, rebuild it with good drives and restore the data from backup.
RAID6 avoids these two latter scenarios by computing two sets of parity data, which enables it to survive double disk failures - at the cost of higher overhead (lower performance) and lower raw space to usable space ratio.
RAID10 (stripe of mirrors) has the highest performance, but also the worst raw to usable space ratio of the common RAID levels (only half of your raw space can be used), and it can survive most, but not all double-disk failures. To illustrate, in the same 8-drive array configured as RAID1, you have drives 1+2, 3+4, 5+6 and 7+8 configured as mirrors of each other, and then your data is striped across these four sets of mirrors. If drive 1 dies, the array can survive the failure of any drive other than drive 2 - better than RAID5 (which can survive no additional failures) but worse than RAID6 (which can survive any one additional failure).
An important feature of any RAID system is proper maintenance and monitoring - drives have to be periodically scanned, and an administrator has to be alerted of any errors, in order to take immediate corrective action.
In a home user scenario, unless your datasets are very very very large (tens of terabytes and up), there is little use for RAID. Almost inevitably, it will provide a false sense of security, while left unmaintained and will eventually die - taking your data with it. I have seen this scenario play out more than once. If your goal is data integrity, then instead of RAID, invest in a proper backup system, with versioning and off-site storage. Backblaze, for example, will let you back up unlimited data for just $50/machine/year. Unlike RAID, this will also protect you against data corruption, user errors, ransomware infections, hardware theft, site disasters, etc.

Maybe same issue, maybe different. But opinions welcome
Got a deal on a iMac i7 core, 4.2GH, 32GB ram, DDR4, 512GB SSD Drive. Using it mainly to edit 4k video, using FCPX. I have older G-Drive 4TB drives with USB3 connections. Given the "small" hard drive of the iMac I am trying to save to, and edit off an external hard drive. When working in FCPX and try to "play" a 5min video in the timeline it stutters and stops. You can see and hear the G-Drive working away. But as the FCPX timeline runs the stuttering, slow play makes it very hard to sync music or see timing.
Would a Raid 5 system like linked below help in SPEED OF EDITING and smoother operation when using FCPX??? Not a pro, not super worried about storage, really looking to make editing in FCPX as fluid as possible. Hope that makes sense. Thanks again!

The system you linked doesn't do RAID by itself - it's a JBOD, which stands for 'Just a Bunch Of Disks'. When connected, you'll see four separate 1.86TB drives plugged into your system. You can use MacOS Disk Utility to configure it as RAID0 (all space usable, no redundancy - one drive goes and all your data is gone) or RAID10 (half the space is reserved for redundancy). Depending on how that enclosure is built and on MacOS RAID stack, you might or might not see some performance gain over a single drive. Without extra software, you won't be able to do RAID5.
However, for $800, you can get a single 2TB external SSD such as a Samsung T5 which is guaranteed to have much better performance than a box full of 7200rpm spinning rust.
Posted 30 September 2017 - 01:30 PM
Generally for video performance, a single hi-performance disk is recommended. I suppose a larger capacity SSD would be awesome, but SSD's do have drawbacks.
RAID is not a good fit for performance requirements, especially video editing. RAID comes in two flavors, hardware based and software based. A lot of modern RAID is software based, and it is not the best for performance, especially when writing data, as the data has to be recorded in multiple spots or spanned over drives. Some hardware RAID can be really fast, especially if the hardware includes a good processor.
Generally, I'd assume unless the device really blows it's horn about hardware speed and RAID performance, it's probably software RAID and may not be fast enough to really support video work.
I concur that a single large drive is probably a better choice.
Also remember that the type of drive connection can be really limiting... IDE 2 is pretty slow. IDE3 is somewhat supported (it's hit or miss even when it's supposed to be supported by a machine). E-sata external connectors are really the way to go if you want speed for video work from a plug-in drive.
Just my $.02

There is no such thing as 'IDE2' or 'IDE3'. The term 'IDE' stands for 'Integrated Drive Electronics' - it goes back to 1980s, when PC hard drives had a dedicated controller card which plugged into an ISA bus slot (I'm simplifying here for the sake of brevity) - Western Digital's IDE standard, released in 1986, moved this controller into the drive enclosure, and ran a derivative of the ISA bus protocol over a flexible ribbon cable. Years later, it was standardized as AT Attachment, or ATA. The standard was iterated with higher transfer speeds, growing from 16MB/s to 33MB/s, to 66MB/s, to 100MB/s and finally 133MB/s, until it was superseded by Serial ATA (SATA), which used the same command set, but communicated over a high-speed serial link rather than ATA's 80-wire parallel link. The first iteration of SATA was capable of transfer speeds up to 1.5Gbit/s (up to 150MB/s in practice due to protocol overhead), then SATA2 (2004) increased that to 3Gbit/s, and finally SATA3 (2009) went to 6Gbit/s. Note that even on its best day, a spinning drive is hard pressed to hit 200MB/s in linear transfer rate, and in actual usage, it's generally a tiny fraction of that, so the interface is very rarely a bottleneck for performance. For SSDs, of course, the story is different - modern SSDs can and do bump into the 600MB/s limitation of SATA3, which prompted the development of NVMe.

Thanks for all the info! I did download Blackmagic's Disk speed ap. On the iMac 512GB SSD drive it shows over 1900mb read/write speeds. On my old 4TB G-Tech drive with a Super Speed USB3.0 cable the read/write speed was about 40mb/s. So maybe a SSD external hard drive is the best route to edit FCPX from. Again all raw data for the projects is 1-2TB.
Posted 01 October 2017 - 01:43 PM
Sorry, meant USB 2 and 3. Late, tired, etc.
Posted 09 October 2017 - 06:36 AM
Still trying to figure out what to do.
Side note; to transfer 1.95TB of 4k video from my G-Tech 4tb external drive to my Lacie Tough Drive took about 13hrs at 42mb/sec.
Posted 16 October 2017 - 08:25 AM
In the end decided editing 4k video was the key. Would risk losing data if a drive fails. So went with the following external hard drive to edit on and then will use old hard drives to store final projects on. Thanks to Tamir at B&H to walk me through options.

I have been looking on the wiki and either the information isn't there, or I haven't managed to hit on the correct search term My Apologies if the latter...I was wondering about removable media directors / players. My idea is that you could load something on a laptop which allowed media to be uploaded / synced and taken away for watching / listening to remotely. I work away from home and would like to be able to take my fave. shows with me to watch on the plane or in my hotel. When I return, I could simply re-sync. I can also see an application for fitting such a system in a car to keep the little ones occupied during a long journey ("Dad, are we theeeeere yet?" as we pull out of the drive.) perhaps a car-computer with a wireless link which sync's automatically when the car is parked on the drive....On a releted topic, I have an iPod touch and would love to be able to sync it to my MCE library. Kind of an MCE version of iTunes, I guess. I am aware there are other MP3 / MP4 players out there which may also benefit from similar functionality.If this type of thing doesn't exist, I'll repost (or request the topic is moved) to "Feature requests & roadmap"
Thanks!I didn't want to post there to be told that it already existed Regarding iTunes, a couple of questions....1) Will I be able to do this for video as well as audio? If so, how do I get the video transcoded for the iPod's display?
2) Is there a version of iTunes for Linux? Ideally, I'd like to run this on my MD, but if not I'll have to keep a windoze unit around...

As reported in Mother Jones, (full article at http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/defense-bill-todd-akin-... )
(first two paragraphs)
Thanks to the Democrats for throwing virtually any minority the Religious Reich doesn't like under the bus.
Note especially the wording of the last sentence of paragraph two.
While Mother Jones goes on about gays, it would also allow discrimination against atheists, those who engage in premarital sex, or any "strongly-held" religious view, which in the final version must now be "accommodated."
The draft defense bill was negotiated behind closed-doors between Democrats and Republicans to iron out differences with Rep. Todd Akin's controversial language. The new language is worse.) – James.
A defense spending bill set to become law contains a provision that could allow discrimination against gay and lesbian service members and other minorities in the military, legal experts warned Wednesday. The controversial measure stems from a proposal originally introduced by Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) the Republican Senate candidate from Missouri whose remarks about "legitimate rape" launched a nationwide controversy that doomed his candidacy.
Now a final draft of the defense bill has emerged from closed-door negotiations between the House and Senate with a version of Akin's measure. While Democratic lawmakers say this compromise proposal would change nothing, critics say the new bill is actually worse than Akin's, because it now requires the military to "accommodate" not only anti-gay bias, but also any other strongly held beliefs.
Please consider reading and signing my atheists, agnostics, and nones acknowledgement petition on the White House petition Website. Even if you choose not to sign, please consider what it means when a sitting president's campaign adviser can blithely state that he does not view 1/5 of the American public as a constituency, what it means for our civil rights, and what it means to others who are religious that hear that. It is as egregious as Mitt Romney's infamous 47% remark.
Views: 241
Wouldn't a "strongly held" belief in Atheism or Gay rights also have to be accommodated?
No. Atheism and gay rights are not beliefs (atheists argue it is not a belief, gays argue it is the way they are born), and it would apply to religious beliefs if passed.
I don't see how atheism could not be considered a moral belief. As would be just about any religion and belief in the morality of gay relationships.
Now, I realize that the wacko Akins may have other ideas in mind, but in principle, I don't feel people should be forced to accept any dominant belief system even if their beliefs are radically opposed to mine. If they want to believe that atheists are the spawn of the devil, as long as my beliefs to the opposite are equally protected, I don't care.
The draft defense bill does not protect moral beliefs. It protects religious beliefs, whether moral or not.
And as it says the Department of Defense must accommodate all such beliefs, it allows things such as discrimination as I outlined above, or any discrimination religious in nature. (For example, the Mormon idea that blacks are the "descendents of Cain" must be accommodated, any sincere religious person must have all their religious holidays off for church, they must accommodate those who do not want to serve with gays, atheists, Muslims, "Jesus-killing" Jews, any military parent who holds that evolution is anti-God and doesn't want his children taught evolution in Department of Defense schools must be accommodated, &c.)
Please remind the President by signing my White House petition above. It has sixty signatures. Gun-advocates got their "deport Piers Morgan" signature up to 32 000 in three days. No one will stand up for our rights if we don't, but people are waiting to take them away, as in the Defense bill.
Since the President does not have the luxury of line-item vetoes, he must either accept the bill as written (if it gets to his desk), or veto the entire defense bill, a scenario the GOP is just itching for him to do. (Soft on defense, anti-Christian, I can picture Fox News and the Tea Party on their hands with this one. Victory to Todd Akin.)
And since the Democrats negotiated the final language, it is unlikely that Obama will support the twenty percent of the populace (the "nones") that overwhelmingly voted for him.
The draft defense bill does not protect moral beliefs. It protects religious beliefs, whether moral or not.
I'm seeing this "beliefs of a member of the armed forces reflecting the conscience, moral principles, or religious beliefs of the member" which seems to include more than just religious beliefs.
Accommodating has a lot of established meanings and limits in other legal settings, including employment law. It has limits.
Not that fundies won't try to use it for their benefit, but others can use it just as well. Minority groups may actually gain leverage. That'll piss off the fundies.
Atheists as a rule do not hold that shunning people or killing them for opposing beliefs, such as heresy, apostasy, homosexuality, or differing religious views are moral. Many religious do.
Thus the religious view has to be accommodated under the draft Defense act. "Not extra-judicially killing" is already accommodated.
Atheists as a rule do not hold that shunning people or killing them for opposing beliefs, such as heresy, apostasy, homosexuality, or differing religious views are moral. Many religious do.
So, what? As long as their beliefs are not interfering with the rights or life of others.
The term 'freedom of conscience' is one that many humanists support. Implicit in that (because conscience is, unlike science, an inherently irrational byproduct of evolution) is that people's perceptions of right will vary widely. Freedom of conscience means that you have a right to consider them bigots and they have the right to consider you a moral degenerate. You have the right to boycott religious themed events and they have the right to boycott gay weddings.
The same rules protect both.
Back when I was young, and mastodons and wooly mammoths lumbered across the lush Nebraska plains, the President was a born-again Peanut farmer from the historic Confederate south. I joined the army in those heady times. I wound up serving a year in the US, then was asked to volunteer for Embassy duty in Greece. So I did, and was promptly shipped to Turkey.
In my units, a fair number of men were assumed to be gay. Openly talked about, and they openly discussed their love lives and sex lives. Some had off-post apartments, where they could be together in privacy. They were not discriminated against. One was, in appearance and behavior, a flawed clone of Truman Capote. He too was accepted and even respected, although it was a complicated kind of respect. He also had a habit of getting drunk and attacking officers, tearing off their clothes, which didn't turn out too well. But until he did that, he was OK.
I admit it was a rarefied environment. I was known to be atheist, and the baptist chaplain didn't like me at all. But I was also accepted, promoted, and given a choice of duty station at completion of my Turkish tour. I chose Ft. Detrick Maryland. So the orders came for Ft. Hood Texas.
Where was I? Oh, then there was a stirring in the loins of Republicans, for the not-yet-orange-haired ex-husband of Jane Wyman. Glad I got out when I did.
I remember when Bill Clinton threw gays under the bus with Don't Ask Don't Tell. Asshole. Democrats can be weenies sometimes.
Interesting they can discriminate against those who engage in pre (or non) marital sex. When I was in the Army, it seemed like that was the entire Army. But it appears the mastodons and wooly mammoths are gone, too.
(Actually, thinking about it, the president wasn't Carter when I joined, it was Ford. Im becoming demented)
cannot sing petition unless you "create a whitehouse account". sorry..not going to do that!.
Why not?

Singapore, June 5, 2008 – In line with the 2008 World Environment Day slogan "CO2 Kick the Habit! Towards a Low Carbon Economy," Jurong Bird Park, Night Safari and Singapore Zoo symbolically planted 75 tree saplings and 120 shrubs on June 5 in recognition that deforestation not only affects animals' habitats but also affects climate change.
The tree planting was carried out by employees of all three parks and took place at the new and upcoming attraction in Singapore Zoo called Rainforest Kidzworld, slated to be opened later this year.
The symbolic planting is only a fraction of the 20,000 more trees, palms, shrubs, ferns, grasses and epiphytes that will eventually be nurtured within the entire Rainforest Kidzworld area. Interestingly, plants with intriguing animal names were chosen to kickstart the greening of this area. These include Spider Lily, Cat's Whisker, Peacock Flower, Snake Weed, Butterfly Ginger and Tiger Orchid.
"The tree planting is a significant occasion for us at Jurong Bird Park, Night Safari and Singapore Zoo as it is in accordance with our mission to not only conserve endangered animals but to also preserve biodiversity. As we continue to transform the Parks into Rainforest Parks, we hope to also bring the message across to the public on the need to preserve and grow more trees," said Ms Fanny Lai, Group CEO, Wildlife Reserves Singapore.
More than 60 employees from the three parks let loose their 'green fingers' and planted the saplings in an effort to do their part for the environment.
Of the more than 298,000 species of plants in the world, the IUCN 2007 Red List indicates that 70% are threatened. In Asia alone, this numbers 3,113 species of plants. The world is losing its tropical forests at an alarming rate, owing mainly to agricultural expansion. Native plant species are facing extinction, and a net increase in greenhouse gases is contributing to global climate change, increased soil erosion, drought and flooding. This environmental degradation forces farmers to clear even more land to grow food for their families.
There are more than 1.5 million trees and shrubs in Jurong BirdPark, Night Safari and Singapore Zoo. Each year more than 70,000 trees and shrubs are planted, replanted and established to maintain our rainforest.
In addition to the tree planting activity, to instill the habit of recycling amongst visitors, the Zoo also placed a paper recycling bin at the exit for visitors to dispose of their paper products, including unwanted maps and brochures at the end of their visit. The paper will in turn be recycled. Recycling bins for other materials such as plastic and aluminum are also placed at significant areas around the parks.
Jurong BirdPark, Night Safari and Singapore Zoo hopes guests will take away with them the green message of recycling, and subsequently start their own recycling initiative at their homes or workplaces.

Style icon Paloma Picasso has been creating jewelry for Tiffany & Co. since 1980, famously reinterpreting Xs and O's in bold silver and gold and celebrating the raw beauty of colorful stones in her modern-looking Sugar Stacks rings. Her newest collection for the jeweler, Olive Leaf, is more naturalistic than what has come before, with prices ranging from $150 for a thin silver ring band to $975 for a silver cuff to $100,000 for a diamond and white-gold bib.
Picasso, 64, is married to French osteopathic doctor Eric Thevenet and splits her time between Lausanne, Switzerland, and Marrakech, Morocco. She recently visited L.A., giving us a chance to talk with her about her inspirations, her design process and her famous father Pablo's influence.
How long has it been since you were in Los Angeles?
A long time. We used to come here once a year during the summer and we would spend a whole month. Then, when we bought our house in Marrakech, we started spending every summer there. But I've missed California, so my husband and I are taking time to drive up the coast to San Francisco and back.
What inspired the Olive Leaf collection?
Our garden in Marrakech has an olive grove, and it was obvious that one day it would have an influence. The olive grove has 76 trees, which are at least 300 years old. And it is what attracted us to buying the house. An olive tree never changes, meaning that the leaves never fall off. It lives with you, and you have the beauty of the trees all year long. And when you get olives, you can make your own olive oil. We make about 100 liters [around 26 gallons] each season and give it away. In the collection, I tried to echo my feeling about the olive tree and how the leaves shimmer in the wind. There's something dainty and delicate about them, but because of the size of the leaves, it's still a big statement. I wanted to bring that quality to the pieces, and it took a lot of work, particularly the structure of the branch holding the leaves. Hopefully, it looks kind of free-form, like it grew by itself. But on the cuff, for example, we did about six different versions with different variations of openness and spacing of the leaves before we got it right.

The year was 1969. Among the many discoveries made that year was something called "the import record" - albums from England that were either different from those released here, or just plain never released in Athens.
I remember pulling together a stack of domestic promotional albums and heading to a downtown rendezvous, near Acropolis to a place called Plaka, where in a small records shop they were traded for a decidedly smaller stack of imports. One of them was a little item that had a black cover with gold lettering proclaiming FROM GENESIS TO REVELATION. It was the first effort of a British group that couldn't decide on their name, although the music was much more decisive - I immediately vowed to become a fan once they figured out what to call themselves....
Elias Mouroutsos
In March 1969, Genesis released their debut album, 'From Genesis To Revelation.' The record gave barely a hint as to what they would become over the next few years.
"I have quite a lot of affection for 'From Genesis To Revelation'," recalled Genesis keyboardist Tony Banks in the official band biography, 'Genesis: Chapter And Verse,' "I don't love it or anything, but it was part of my childhood."
Genesis had formed in 1967 while the all members of the original lineup — Peter Gabriel on vocals, Mike Rutherford on bass and guitar, Anthony Phillips on guitar, Tony Banks on keyboard and drummer Chris Stewart – were still attending Charterhouse School. The band, all still in their teens, were caught up in the spirit of the day and wanted to pursue music full-time. "At that stage, pop music was a symbol of the revolution, about to overthrow the establishment," said Mike Rutherford in the documentary 'Genesis: A History.'
Enter Charthouse alumni Jonathan King who, in 1965, had a Top 20 worldwide hit with 'Everyone's Gone To The Moon.' Though his own musical career soon stalled, he became a talent agent for Decca Records. The band got a demo tape to King, and in 1968 he signed Genesis to the label. Initially struck by Peter's voice, King wanted to rename the band Gabriel's Angels, an idea the band politely vetoed.
Their debut single, 'The Silent Sun' b/w 'That's Me' was issued prior to the album, but went nowhere. The song showed a definite influence of early Bee Gees, a favorite of King's. "I was trying to imitate Robin Gibb, who had the more emotive soulful voice," said Gabriel in 'Genesis:Chapter & Verse.' Though the baroque-styled pop of that first single sounded like a hit, it failed to chart anywhere. The band forged ahead, recording the album and developing their songwriting style. "For many musicians it's all about playing rather than writing," Gabriel continued. "Whereas for us, writing was the center of it all."
The album starts off with the unassuming 'Where The Sour Turns To Sweet,' a gentle piano-based ballad that was also issued as their second single. Acoustic guitars and strings weave in and out as the world first hears the magnificent voice of Peter Gabriel. Brass and percussion adorn the short-but-sweet track, ultimately making a great opener to the album. Things turn upside down as the next song rumbles in. 'In The Beginning' ranks as one of the band's lost classics and possibly the highlight of the album. It shows the band in a darker light and hints, ever so slightly, at what was to come. Gabriel is in charge here with a more domineering vocal and in general, a more rock and roll approach.
Aside from the Bee Gees, there are other influences of the era like the Moody Blues, the Byrds, and, of course, the Beatles that all helped to shape the early Genesis sound. 'The Serpent,' originally titled 'She Is Beautiful,' is another high point here that shows small-but-shimmering signs of a more progressive influence at work. "Dark night / The planets are set / Creator prepares for the dawn of man," sings Gabriel as the ethereal backing vocals entwine with Phillips' out-of-character biting guitar lines. 'In The Wilderness' is another that should have been a hit. Though never released as a single, it has a vibrancy that reeks of the pop charts of the era. Again, the Bee Gees influence is in full swing, with the incredibly catchy chorus of "Music / All I hear is music" ringing out crystal clear. Another interesting aspect of the album is that it plays like a continuous piece with short musical interludes between the songs, each one based on the theme of the song it follows.
'The Conqueror' is another acoustic guitar driven pop rocker showing a lean towards Moody Blues territory while 'In Limbo' shows off a soul influence. 'A Place To Call My Own,' which ends the album, was originally a long piece more in line with the next steps the band would take, but it was ultimately cut in short form to fit in with the rest of the album. "The recording was done very quickly," noted Gabriel, "We had no real control over the way things sounded, although you can hear where we were starting to explore things melodically."
There is a loose-fitting lyrical theme to the album, based on the Bible, with various mythic references popping up throughout. "'From Genesis To Revelation' was really a composite of the best tracks we had up to that point," said Banks. "It felt easier to hide behind a big story…In the early days, we tended to use myths and legends as a way of writing."
"The concept of the album was broad enough to allow us to include all kinds of songs," added Gabriel.
The album went on to sell a whopping 650 copies upon its initial release, something Jonathan King takes partial blame for. "I had this brilliant idea to call it 'From Genesis To Revelation', and not have an artist's name on it," he said in 'Genesis: A History,' "This was a terrible mistake! It got bumped into all the religious bins of the record shops and nobody ever heard it."
Sadly, to this day, 'From Genesis To Revelation' seems to be most remembered for its lack of sales, which is a real shame as there are many great songs here and makes for a very enjoyable ride from start to finish. Go give it another spin, or perhaps, a first spin and hear what this incredible band's first steps sounded like.

Hi, I got the latest qtopia installed and trying to play some xvid videos with ac3 music.
I'm using 20 fps, resolution about 320 and mono 56kps audio.
@ about halt the song, it hangs n gives an error 11 segfault.
then if I rerun the program, it's fine for couple of minutes and hangs again.
tried music and it doesn't crash
Is there a way to track exactly to what the problem is due to with a certain log.
I've verified in logread but it's not recording any errors.
I'm not sure if it's due to the problem but I've tryed to use the special kernel with 471 mhz http://www.zaurususergroup.org/UpDownload+...t-lid-188.phtml but I'm not sure that it worked (is there a way to know if the xscale is @ 471 MHz? beside answering it should be faster)

Vesper gets a lot of attention because it's crafted by well-known personalities in the Apple community, namely Brent Simmons, Dave Wiskus, and John Gruber. Part of the reason they're well-known, however, is because they're not only capable of great craft, but of explaining the creative and business processes behind it. That makes it as valuable as them. Cases in point, Brent Simmons technical details on Vesper 007's iOS 7 implementation on Inessential:
You remember in Lord of the Rings when Gollum finally gets the ring and he's holding it up and dancing around? That's me and TextKit.
And John Gruber's look ahead on Daring Fireball:
We're breaking with policy to announce this because sync is so important to so many of you that it was becoming untenable to do otherwise. We want you to know that our priorities align with yours. Sync is the feature that almost everything else on our roadmap hinges upon.
Also: syncing is a notoriously difficult problem to solve. There is no easy way. From the outside, it may seem as simple as "Just use _____", where the blank is iCloud or Dropbox or Azure or S3 or anything else. From the inside, every option we have presents hurdles, limitations, and a ton of work.
Sync is also important, I'd hazard to guess, because SimpleNote, as part of their return, decided to lift Vesper's design and experience to an appalling degree, making it for all intents and purposes Vesper with sync. And if someone is going to be Vesper with sync, it should be Vesper, with sync.

'69 Mach 1 Mustang - Mach Fun
Dan Barbee Bought His '69 Mach 1 New, But That Didn't Stop Him From Changing A Few Things During Its Restoration
Dan Barbee vividly recalls the anticipation of returning home from Vietnam. While serving in the late '60s, his thoughts and dreams were that of home-and the new '69 Mustang Mach 1. It teased him from magazine and newspaper ads. Armed Forces Radio spoke of its slippery lines and powerful lineup of V-8 engines.
When Dan returned home before Christmas 1968, he headed to his nearest Ford showroom to buy a new '69 Mach 1-this Mach 1. It has been in his possession for the past 40 years.
"I drove the wheels off of it," Dan says about getting a year's worth of pent-up anticipation out of his system. It had the 351 Windsor engine, four-speed, 3.50 gears, dual exhaust, knitted vinyl sports interior with highback bucket seats, and console. It represented home, freedom, and utter euphoria.
After driving the Mach 1 for 17 years, Dan put it away for safekeeping, where it sat in storage for another 14 years. When it was time to haul the car out in 2000, Dan turned it over to Bruce Reckard of M-Detail, The Mustang Market in Riverside, California. Bruce has produced some of the finest Mustang restorations in Southern California. He and Dan hit it off, working collectively toward a first-class restoration effort with a restomod twist.
Dan makes no apologies for the restomod treatment of his original Mach 1. The Ruby Red Pearl Metallic basecoat/clearcoat paint completely changed the car's personality. Note the Mach 1 graphics in Champagne to match interior nuances. Dan also ditched the egg-crate grille for a custom grille from M-Detail, The Mustang Market.
Once in Ruby Red, the Mach 1 entered a new chapter in Dan's life. The car was again new and exciting, a launch pad for a mid-life crisis.
While the revamped Mach 1 looked sharper than ever, it needed to make a performance statement. The 351W from the factory was snappy, but it didn't bark with the authority of a 428 Cobra Jet, something that always bugged Dan. To make CJ power, he looked to displacement and Paxton supercharging, stepping up to a stroker crank for 393 ci. Based on piston selection, deck and compression height, and '69 vintage 351W iron head castings with 61cc chambers, Dan wound up at 9.0:1 compression-perfect for the huff of a Paxton supercharger.
Down under, a Top Loader fourspeed connects to a Currie 9-inch rearend with 3.50:1 limited-slip and 31-spline axles. For braking, Dan remained true to the car's roots with power-assisted Kelsey-Hayes singlepiston front disc brakes and rear drums. Wheels are American Racing Torq-Thrust IIs in polished aluminum with BFGoodrich T/A Radials.
Inside, Dan left 1969 behind, ditching the knitted vinyl to customize with black vinyl and saddle suede. The Moto-Lita steering wheel feels great in your hands, while white-face instruments highlight the gauges after dark. A Kenwood sound system takes Dan back to the '60s-and anywhere else he'd like to go.
Dan demonstrates how anticipation can change over the years. Forty years ago, it was coming home from Vietnam to a new Mach 1. Forty years later, it's the anticipation of great fun in that same Mach 1.

ReverbNation Adds Some RtB To Its CwF Platform
from the getting-there... deptIt's been neat to watch more and more companies step up to better enable the types of business models that are working these days. The latest is ReverbNation -- a company that's really focused on the Connect with Fans (CwF) side of the business for a while -- by building what it called a "fan relationship management" system. Basically, it was a more sophisticated email list manager, but with some special features and widgets for bands. The company has been adding a lot of features lately, and now it's announced a deal to make it even easier for a band to sell merch via ReverbNation. Contrary to what the article claims, I don't believe that just selling merch is necessarily a great business model on its own (access, attention and some other things tend to have more potential), but it is certainly a good supplementary part of many CwF+RtB type business models these days. So anything that makes it easier for artists seems like a good thing. Obviously, there are other ways that bands could already do similar things, but the integration directly into ReverbNation's platform is definitely a nice thing.

hi thanks, i have to ha22 now but it needs the SPCP8x5_Driver_Installation correct? i'm having trouble with the installation, i have given up on it. When i get to copying from the master controller in the wizard, the wizard does not copy it. I did once and never worked again. I reset both the controller and the ha22 after trying them out in windows, Installed the drivers which was was a headache and i still couldn't do it properly i believed because i can't load to spcp8x5.ko file. As a matter of fact i was doing everything out of the home folder instead of /tmp because every command i put in came up no file exists. so i was hoping i could just buy a plug and play interface?
hey thanks, I'll give you remote access all you want if you can please help me out, i'm losing my mind. tell me how and have it. thanks in advance
Are there any z wave interfaces that work out of the box, without having to add any drivers?


text: CHICAGO -- Anthony Rizzo wasted little time in getting to Adam Wainwright. Yu Darvish Jersey . Rizzo hit a two-run single in the first that ended Wainwrights scoreless streak at 25 innings, and the Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-5 Friday for their third win in four games. "Im not trying to do too much," Rizzo said. "See the ball and hit it, really try to swing at the pitches I want to hit, not pitchers pitches. Especially with Wainwright, his stuff is so good hes going to eat you alive." Wainwright (5-2) had allowed six runs in 45 innings coming in, but the Cubs matched the runs total in just five innings against the St. Louis ace, who gave up 10 hits. His ERA rose from 1.20 to 2.16. "They did a nice job of spoiling some pitches," Cubs manager Rick Renteria said of his batters. "Youve got to give them all the credit. They grinded out some at-bats today and reaped some benefits." Wainwright had been 6-0 in 12 previous starts and five relief appearances at Wrigley Field. "There were certain pitches today I didnt have good command over," he said. "My curveball was kind of sporadic in the zone and out of the zone, which is pretty rare for me. Its a funny game. Today was not my day. I accept that and take responsibility for today and move on." The scoreless streak was one inning shy of the career high for Wainwright, who had not allowed an extra-base hit since April 12 against the Cubs in St. Louis. "Hes been incredibly consistent through this season so far. ... You can see pitches were just on the edge and not where he wanted them or werent getting called," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "Its a frustrating day when he knows our guys put some offence up for him and we just cant stop them. He limited the damage and figured out ways to keep us in it. We had some chances." Rizzo added a leadoff home run in the fifth that put Chicago ahead 6-3. Welington Castillo had three doubles for Chicago, which sent the skidding Cardinals to their 10th loss in 16 games. Travis Wood (2-3) gave up three runs -- two earned -- and six hits in seven innings but allowed just one runner in his final three innings. Justin Grimm gave up Jhonny Peraltas two-run homer in the eighth, Hector Rondon pitched a perfect ninth for his second save. Cubs centerfielder Ryan Sweeney made a catch on the run in the eighth on a drive to right-centre by Allen Craig. Sweeney injured his right hamstring and was replaced by Emilio Bonifacio, who moved from second. "It was great determination," Renteria said. "Hammys hurt." St. Louis overcame its early deficit, tying the game in the third when Matt Carpenter singled in a run and scored on Peraltas double. Chicago loaded the bases in the bottom half on a pair of walks around Starlin Castros single. Ryan Sweeney drove in the go-ahead run with a weak grounder to second that allowed Rizzo to score from third, and Castillo followed with a two-out, two-run double. Castros throwing error from shortstop on Randal Grichuks grounder allowed Yadier Molina to score from third and cut the deficit to 5-3 in the fourth. NOTES: Cubs GM Jed Hoyer said RHP Jose Veras (left oblique strain) will begin his rehab assignment at Double-A Tennessee and pitch at some point in the next few days, depending on how he feels. ... Cubs prospect OF Jorge Soler (hamstring) is progressing at the teams facility in Mesa, Arizona. Hoyer said "the reports have been good" and he hopes Soler will join Tennessee soon. ...

A new school year is just beginning, full of possibilities for learning and growth. Many children are excited as they prepare with new school clothes, backpacks, and supplies, while others may look forward to the new school year with dread. They may be worried about succeeding academically, or about having friends, or they may worry about whether they will like the new teacher, or that they'll have to deal with bullies.
What's a parent to do? Here are three steps to reducing back-to-school stress: First, it is very important to listen to your children and try to understand the problem from her point of view. Don't try to solve the problem until you have really listened to and understood what she's saying.
You may be surprised by what part of the problem actually bothers them.
Second, there are concrete steps you can take to help anxious children calm down. Breathing techniques are a useful tool that works well with children. Breathing should be slow and deep, taking longer to exhale than to inhale.
Imagination techniques are also very helpful. Get your child to imagine a place where she would feel calm and peaceful. Have your child imagine herself in the place, noticing all of the sights, colors, sounds, textures, and temperature of the place. Perhaps she could draw a picture of this place and take that picture to school. Just looking at the picture is likely to help her to feel calm.
Self talk is also useful. Help your children come up with simple statements that promote calm and build confidence, such as "Some people like me a lot. So, I can make friends." Or "I'm good at some things." Make sure that your child says things that are true (not exaggerated) so that she will believe what she's saying.
Third, if there is an actual problem at school, whether with another student or a teacher, work with your children to solve the problem. Get the children involved in the process; that way the solution will make more sense to them, and they will be more likely to use it.
Remember: sometimes an acceptable solution can focus on avoiding a problem rather than trying to fix it. For example, avoiding a bully is often easier than trying to change the bully's behavior, although the latter may be a more ideal resolution. Talk to your children about the various options in each situation, and which they think would be the most successful solution for them.

Blackpool 2 Everton 2
BLACKPOOL'S Marlon Harewood was denied a late winner as the Barclays Premier League newcomers fought out a thrilling draw with Everton today.
The Seasiders substitute put the ball in the net in the closing minutes at Bloomfield Road but was frustrated by a controversial offside flag.
Blackpool twice led an end-to-end encounter after goals from Wales pair Neal Eardley and David Vaughan but Everton hit back through Tim Cahill and former Blackpool loanee Seamus Coleman.
Everton created the better chances throughout but Blackpool may feel they could have prevented either of their goals and will bemoan the late offside decision.
The tone for an entertaining contest, the first meeting between the sides in the league since 1971, was set in the opening minutes.
Everton, confidence restored after five games unbeaten, made the initial running.
Ayegbeni Yakubu threatened to play in Mikel Arteta but the Spaniard failed to control and Cahill found space only to shoot well over.
Blackpool showed their attacking intentions for the first time when Vaughan whipped in a dangerous cross which Sylvain Distin headed clear.
The Seasiders went in front with 10 minutes gone after Charlie Adam was crudely brought down by Arteta 25 yards out.
Eardley stepped up and bent a superb free-kick around the Everton wall and past Tim Howard.
It was the perfect way to celebrate his 22nd birthday today but Everton produced the perfect response and equalised just three minutes later.
Distin led the charge, playing a one-two with Steven Pienaar and playing in Yakubu.
The Nigerian, buoyed after last week's winner against Stoke, turned and picked out Cahill on the six-yard box with a delicate cross.
Matt Gilks got a hand to the Australian's powerful header but could not keep out his 50th Premier League goal.
Everton began to assert some control and Yakubu teed up Arteta, but Gilks this time gathered after the Spaniard shot from the edge of the area.
Pienaar then set Yakubu free but Eardley got back to make the tackle.
The danger was not yet over for the home side but Distin headed over from the resulting Leighton Baines corner.
Blackpool remained on the back foot and Ian Evatt slid in to block when another chance opened up in the box for Cahill.
Baines went down in the box under an Adam tackle on another attack but referee Andre Marriner deemed the challenge legal.
Everton skipper Phil Neville then worried the Tangerines with a run to the byline and his deflected cross fell nicely for Coleman but Gilks saved his well-struck volley.
Coleman, who impressed in a short spell at Bloomfield Road last season, then looked certain to score after weaving his way through the home defence but his shot curved just wide of the far post.
Blackpool made Everton pay for that profligacy by reclaiming the lead after a goalmouth scramble three minutes into the second half.
Everton appealed for handball against DJ Campbell as the striker shielded the ball from Distin.
Nothing was given and the ball was worked out for Vaughan to shoot from the edge of the area.
The midfielder slammed his first effort into the body of a defender but reacted quickly - while some of his team-mates claimed handball - to fire home at the second attempt.
But again, Blackpool could not hold their lead for long.
Coleman pounced on a poor header by Stephen Crainey barely two minutes later and raced into the area to unleash a fierce shot which squeezed under the body of Gilks.
Both sides continued to attack with Adam shooting wide after a menacing run by Campbell and Pienaar having a shot blocked by Eardley.
John Heitinga then picked out Gilks with a volley from the edge of the box and the goalkeeper did even better to deny Pienaar at point-blank range after a neat interchange with Cahill.
Substitute Louis Saha had a great chance midway through the second half after racing onto a fine ball from Pienaar.
The France striker took a touch on the edge of the area and admirably chose not to go down as Evatt grabbed his arm but he screwed his shot wide.
Everton threw on another striker in Jermaine Beckford and the former Leeds man twice had close-range efforts blocked within moments of leaving the bench.
Blackpool then finished the stronger with Adam forcing a fine save from Howard with a powerful drive.
Harewood then thought he had snatched victory in the last minute but the flag was raised

I want testing grounds back!
Schnoz easily makes this the greatest forum theme of all time.
The logo at the top answers the mystery pondered in the previous theme: What is "beneath the mask" of Skull Knight? As clearly displayed in the logo, SKnet itself resides within the ancient warrior, and he is constantly browsing the forum in search for a lead on the latest scans, so he can pinpoint the God Hand's location.
I like it. I remember nearly being blinded the last switch (though my eyes did get used to it).
Hmmm... it seems SKULLKNIGHT.NET isn't shown anywhere on the board. I'll have to fix that. Any suggestions where it could be placed without being tacky? CnC, I'm lookin at YOU.
*everyone looks at CnC, widest lens possible*Well, off the top of my head something to balance out the awesome pic of Skully could work. So something sharing the space with the "Hey _insert board member's name here_, you have x messages" - line.
In another related news I'm finding sometimes it won't show me the threads where new posts have been made when I click the button. Rather, it will just tell me there is nothing new when clearly there is.
This happens because if you click on a thread from the index, and view it, then click BACK, the ON button will stay ON until you refresh. If you click on it before refreshing, it won't display anything because you already viewed it.So, yeah. Retarded I know but that' SMF for ya.
Yea thats how it was before, so I'm aware of that kind of behavior. This is different in that there _are_ actually new posts but clicking on the button says there aren't. For instance it just told me there were no new posts in STB when you posted a reply to my post in the 28 weeks later thread.

It will only light up the icon when there's a new post in the main Shootin' the Breeze section, and not if there are only new posts in the subforums.
That's how it was before, but actually now it does light up when there are posts in the subsections, but clicking on it will of course tell you there's no post in Shootin' the Breeze itself.

Nathaniel Winsor, Jr. House
Acquired by the Society in 1997 through a community fundraising effort, the Nathaniel Winsor, Jr. House is perhaps the most architecturally significant building in Duxbury. Its construction, on a grand scale uncommon in houses of the area, was based on designs by Bulfinch and Asher Benjamin.
Nathaniel Winsor, Jr., a carver of figureheads by trade, inherited a thriving mercantile enterprise from his father. The Winsor family built at least 40 sailing vessels in Duxbury including several large brigs which traded in ports around the world. When the age of sail passed, the Winsors moved to Boston, began to acquire steamships, and ran one of the first regular clippership lines from Boston to San Francisco.
As the Society's headquarters, the building houses our administrative offices and is used for educational programs, special events and meetings.

They might just be the best team in the world, but Sean Rosenthal and Phil Dalhausser aren't exactly in the hearts of the AVP seeding system.
In fact, they entered the weekend at the Manhattan Beach Open as the sixth seed. The tour weighs its point scale on the previous four finishes in AVP events, and those haven't exactly been sparkling events for the duo that has won three titles on the FIVB world tour.
But it does set up a rather interesting third-round match Saturday when Dalhausser and Rosenthal, who won twice Friday, take on second-seeded Ryan Doherty and Nick Lucena.
"Is that who we have?" Rosenthal asked. "It is what it is. It sucks more for them than it does for us. They're a top team and they shouldn't have to play a team like us this early."
Dalhausser and Rosenthal did not play in last week's tour stop in Salt Lake City. Dalhausser had a slight abdominal sprain ‑ oh, and his wife gave birth to their second child.
There was only a mild upset on the men's side in the first round and that came when ninth-seeded Billy Allen and Trevor Crabb knocked of No. 8 Casey Jennings and Jeremy Casebeer, 21-13, 21-19.
Which comes first?
Top-seeded Jake Gibb and Casey Patterson scored an epic victory in Gibb's hometown of Salt Lake City last week when they rallied from a 14-11 deficit in the third game to outlast Doherty-Lucena, 17-15.
It was also special for Patterson, who played collegiality down the road at BYU
So would that victory be more special than winning the Manhattan Open?
"I'll tell you after we win Sunday," Gibb said with a slight smile. "It was pretty dang special to win in Utah, that's for sure, but there's nothing like Manhattan."
Patterson reached that conclusion as well.
"The way we won in Salt Lake was pretty awesome, probably one of my favorites of my career, but getting your name on the pier is how you go down in the history books," he said. "So I'll have to say Manhattan."
Comeback kids
Third-seeded Emily Day (West Torrance High, Loyola Marymount) and Summer Ross cruised in their first-round match and took Game 1 in the second round over No. 14 Kelly Schumaker and Kendra Van Zwieten.
Then Schumaker and Van Zwieten got hot and rolled to an 18-12 lead in Game 2.
But urged on by the couple of dozen Summer Day supporters, Day and Ross scored the next seven points and pulled out a 26-24 victory.
Day couldn't remember erasing such a big deficit.
"I don't think so, not in a game to 21," she said. "We've come back in some game 3s which always gives us confidence and we always know we can come back. We don't ever want to be in that position, though.
"It's huge to not have to go to three (matches) today, we don't want to go to the losers' side. This is the big tournament."
The big upset of the day came in the second round when 11th-seeded Jessica Gysin and Morgan Miller bumped off No. 6 Brittany Hochevar-Ali Daley, 21-19, 21-17.

When Wickes School 4th graders were assigned to write an essay about an everyday hero, Matt Hernandez looked no further than custodian Mary Manson. Mary, who drove special education buses for 23 years before the department contracted for the services, chose to carry on with the department as a custodian. She loves the job because it continues to put her in contact with students. But never did she expect to be picked as a hero. Below is Matt's essay.
Let me explain about Miss Mary. She is very generous because when it was vacation, she came to our class and cleaned our floor. Miss Mary painted the boys' bathroom. Miss Mary sometimes donates books for other people. She's very nice because she goes to other teachers' classes and cleans everything. And other custodians clean things too.
Sometimes she tells people to help her. When it was snowing, she put this kind of thing down that makes the snow not slippery. She shovels for us, so we can't slip in the snow.
When I'm in the hall, she makes me feel very happy about the great work she has been doing. If you throw a ball on the roof, she will be nice enough to get it. Miss Mary makes me happy.

Noah Zerkin/Twitter With Permission)
In recent times, Google's Sergey Brin has become an ambulating, flying billboard for his company's next great invention, Google Glasses.
These things will project all the information you need to know (Mariah Carey just kissed someone!) straight into your eyes, as you bump into another fellow human, who is trying to take in the winner of the 3:30 race at Belmont Park.
Yesterday, though, Brin took his glasses for a very curious roam into the depths of New York's subway.
In this place where drunks commune with priests, strippers, Wall Street fiends and administrative associates, Brin sat calmly, dressed like a team member from "Ocean's Eleven."
We know this because, as the Next Web reports, he was spotted by Noah Zerkin, who just happens to be rather fond of augmented reality himself.
Zerkin tweeted the image and explained: "Yeeeah... I just had a brief conversation with the most powerful man in the world. On the downtown 3 train. Nice guy.
Some will muse futuristically about the concept that Brin is the most powerful man in the world -- especially on this, Inauguration Day.
However, Zerkin explained to a tweeting questioner: "@kinster as I recall, Forbes did in fact name him the 5th most powerful person in the world, so it's not a stretch."
What might be a stretch is to imagine that Brin was actually being pumped with information through those goggles.
