Backside-illuminated CMOS sensors can be found in everything from the Apple iPhone 4 and HTC Evo 4G to camcorders and point-and-shoots. Here's why you want one--and why you don't.
The new top-of-its-consumer-line model incorporates a 1-inch BSI sensor that outputs 4K/30p.
The Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II adds a tilting LCD and hot shoe for accessories, but swaps in a 1-inch BSI sensor.
Being a Sony product, it's not made from no-name parts; up front you'll find Carl Zeiss optics and behind that are a 16-megapixel Exmor R BSI CMOS sensor and a Bionz processor.
A refresh of 2010's Z981, the Max features a 30x wide-angle zoom and a BSI CMOS sensor.
Image sensor makers are putting their best foot forward with a technique called backside illumination, and it's catching on. Also, Sony details BSI chips for phones.
Sony's latest megazooms feature 16-megapixel BSI CMOS sensors, full HD movie capture, 3-inch high-resolution LCDs, and, of course, long lenses.
Featuring its own Isocell technology, Samsung has revealed some more information on the image sensor found inside the Galaxy S5.
With a lot of new technology but some interesting implementation choices, you should keep your eye on the Samsung NX1.
The newest addition to its enthusiast compact line seems targeted at drawing buyers away from Sony's RX100 II.

Every Florida Panthers game is like a bad rerun. Not just a bad one in
the middle of several good episodes that keeps the audience hooked, but rather
one game after another filled with the same mistakes that result in the same
losses that beat Panther fans into submission knowing this is going to be yet another year
with their team out of the playoffs.
Monday night's 3-2 loss against the Nashville Predators was no different,
as the Panthers overcame a one-goal deficit in the third period only to blow the
lead with three minutes left and then promptly gave it all away in overtime.
"There is a reason why [the Predators] are where they are at, because
they find ways to win," said Stephen Weiss, who didn't have a very happy Passover
despite being a key component of Florida's comeback effort, scoring the second goal
and dishing out an assist for the first one.
Panthers head coach Frank DeBoer lamented the fact that his team's
comeback effort in the third period went to waste after what he called "two or
three chances [the Panthers] just missed" to take a 3-1 lead and put the game
away for good.
Nashville took a 1-0 lead three minutes into the second period having had
done nothing to deserve so, as they found Florida's defense in momentary
disarray as forward David Legwand scored with a precise wrist shot, the
Predators' sixth shot on goal of the game up to that point.
However, the Predators stalled after that and paid for their passive
nature early in the third quarter, when defenseman Keith Ballard tied the game
and started turning momentum around.
Three minutes later, forward Michael Frolik fired a fired a vicious
slapshot that found everyone off-guard except Weiss, who alertly tipped it in
and gave Florida a 2-1 lead.
The Predators slowly came to realize that losing to the Florida Panthers
was a very real possibility, and their grip on the sixth seed in the Western
Conference was starting to loosen until forward Patric Hornqvist evened things
up once again with three minutes left in regulation.
You could feel the air coming out of the Panthers as they were
shellshocked by losing the lead, and the Predators assessed the knockout punch
one minute into overtime courtesy of defenseman's Francis Bouillon's snap shot
to give Nashville two precious points.
Ballard said after the game that the Panthers are committed to playing
hard and remaining professional during the seven games that remain this season,
but the best thing that could happen to them is for someone to mercifully pull
the plug on the show and let management do some re-casting during the offseason
so the Panthers can attempt to come back to primetime in 2011.

Snowchildhero's 888 Followers Serket(esque) Give Away!
It was a few weeks ago now and I'm actually well past it, but I finally hit a very special number - 888! I have always been a huge Serket fan when it comes to Homestuck, and to celebrate, I am doing a give away related to them - but many of these things will be fun even if you are NOT into Serkets (or even Homestuck!)
One winner will receive the following:
- A $25 Arda Giftcard (I have personally used Greda for Aranea and Luthien for Mindfang!)
- A custom made poodle skirt, like the spider one above I used for Aranea! I can do any design you want (within reason!) and any color you want that I have access to.
- A resin Sufferer necklace.
- Likes and Reblogs count.
- Be considerate of those on your dashboard.
- You are NOT required to follow me, however, followers WILL be given an extra chance. Also, I will be adding prizes if I hit other follower landmark numbers within the contest time, including upping the Arda giftcard to $50, adding horns, a petticoat, and other fun/useful cosplay esque things. (It helps save me the trouble of doing another giveaway later!)
- I will ship internationally.
- The giveaway ends September 30th. May the odds be ever in your favor!

it was the greatest day ever
((screenshot: logan!!))
-did not think an rp group would be this much fun; welp!-
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this blog! I created in mainly because a friend wanted me to do the DA roleplays with them, but now that they've gotten in, I may delete ;^;
I'm not much of a roleplayer, in truth! So please be patient while I figure out where to go with this blog c:
Don't delete it just practice!
I probably won't delete! I may not be using it as much, but I've met so many nice people that I would like to keep RPing with c:
guuuuuuuuuuurl, you delete and Imma gonna come over and rip dem piercings right out of your dimples c: <3
This fucking post doesn't show notes… I think this job is for the Winchesters
forever alone lol
to many notes to show baby
I think we broke it
Pffft, that's easy. Just click the 0 notes and see how many peopl—-
Welcome to Tumblr.
Holy crap this is the most accurate post I have ever seen in my life
wait…this is a completely different gif set on my blog…
Reblog this and then check it on your Tumblr. Go on, do it.
What? How? O_O
this didn't work for me. Anyone got it working?
Why do people even allow video submissions?? Like, all I've seen around tumblr is "DON'T HIT PLAY ON THIS VIDEO, IT'S A VIRUS!". Simple as fuck to prevent that, don't allow video submissions. Someone wants to send you a video they can upload it on youtube, reblog it, then tag your name to suggest you reblog it. Or send you the video's url in a message. IDK??
if u don't see what's wrong here u need a big reality check
exCUSE ME???
i lost 4 followers was it because i said anime was making me straight
I feel as thought I should tag this with an about me tag.

He is a good professor. He makes every example clear. you will get a good grade if you learn the notes/ examples he gives to you. He is responsible and helpful. He is never late.
Easy to ask for help, answers ?'s w/o making you feel dumb. Straightforward, no surprises & organized. Took class in summer. Gives xcredit before exams that count toward exam. Drops lowest quiz, class/group assignments & final exam score replaces lowest exam. Hw pack due exam days. Grades fair & results are quick. Got an A but had to work for it.
He's nice teacher. It's very clear. :8quizzes :12group works :3exams :final :home work sets. (16 weeks) You should show up all classes. Take note!! The lowest score will be drop at the term end---quiz and the lowest score will be replaced by the final exam score.
He is a straight forward teacher. Just make sure you write down the notes on his lecture and practice the problems he gives you in your homework because he'll give something similar to that on his test/quiz. You have a quiz every week and a test every 2-3 weeks, but if you study the notes you take then you should get an A in his class.
I really like mr. shihabi. he's the type of teacher that gets straight to the point. he doesn't laugh giggle or play around. he teach you and go home. if your the type of person who loves to learn then take him. class is easy just do all the work. come in class pay attention and do the work, thats it!!
I wouldn't suggest for everybody to take Mr.Shibabi.He makes it seem like you are doing well and passing his class,but once you receive your grade it is far from what you expected.The final can either make or break you and if you are like 1 or 2 percent away from a C,he will not bump your grade up.He will give you the D.
really boring class he gives like 10 exmples for one problem......talks a lot and theres no srudnt participation
has too much homework. have to put real good attention.

Benefits I noticed from Conditioner only
My hair is softer, stronger, and healthier than it's ever been. I rarely ever have frizz. If I do, it's because my hair washing days are too close together and I don't use a moisturizing conditioner. For the first time in my life, my hair behaves without the need of heat…or even hair wrapping or curling techniques. I noticed less split ends and I learned to love my natural hair texture. It smells great from the conditioner and looks as if I had worked at least an hour on my hair when I really just comb and oil it. I love my hair now and it makes growing it out so much easier. I really hope you try it.

'Flacco Fling': quarterback helps Ravens stun Broncos in 2OT
Denver, CO, United States (4E Sports) – Joe Flacco covered 331 yards on 18-for-34 passing with three touchdowns and Justin Tucker converted a go-ahead 47-yard field goal in a second overtime period as the Baltimore Ravens shocked the first-seeded Denver Broncos, 38-35, Saturday at Sports Authority Field.
Flacco overcame great pressure from the Broncos defense to fire the game-tying 70-yard touchdown pass to Jacoby Jones with 31 second left in regulation. Denver did have blown coverage on the play, however.
The Ravens then endured the physical nature of the overtime period before Tucker delivered the game-winning FG kick in the second overtime, preventing quarterback Peyton Manning from winning his first playoff game since joining the Broncos.
Manning, who covered 290 yards on 28-for-43 passing with three TDs and two interceptions, guided the Broncos to a 21-14 lead in the second quarter but the Ravens kept coming back.
Manning put the Broncos up 35-28 after finding Demaryius Thomas for a 17-yard TD pass before Flacco came through with his late game theatrics.
With the victory, the Ravens gave legendary linebacker Ray Lewis another week to his career and a date with the winner in the other AFC playoff match between the New England Patriots and the Houston Texans Sunday.

Finally, Apple has released iTunes for Windows. I've been waiting for this for ages. At first glance it seems really quite polished for a first release. It's not the most powerful music program ever, and it won't replace foobar2000 for me yet, but it has a lot of really nice functionality that other players seem to make very difficult. Better, it offers sync with the iPod and seems to support the auto-leveling stuff that nothing else I've tried does. Lovely.
I just wish that you could buy music from the iTunes Music Store outside of the U.S.
I'll post again once I've used it a bit more.Posted by Simon at October 16, 2003 11:35 PM | TrackBack

Attention Super Committee: Help Reduce Deficit by Prioritizing Immigration Enforcement Spending
November 15, 2011
Report: http://tinyurl.com/DHSreview
Press conference recording: http://tinyurl.com/FiscalReviewmp3
Washington D.C.— The bipartisan congressional "Super Committee" has 8 days to agree on how to get the nation's fiscal house in order by cutting $1.2 trillion from the federal budget over the next decade. In advance of the approaching deadline, the National Immigration Forum released today a fiscal review of immigration enforcement programs titled: "Cut Here: Reducing Wasteful Spending on Immigration Enforcement. Save More than 2.6 Billion".
The review examines the cost-effectiveness of immigration enforcement programs and assesses their impact on the federal budget. The review is particularly important given likely Congressional cuts to the Department of Homeland Security's budget. Border security and immigration detention programs are the largest immigration expenses in the DHS budget and deserve careful review as Congress attempts to root out waste and inefficiency from the federal budget.
The National Immigration Forum's review recommends several cuts to wasteful spending, including:
· Prioritizing the deportation of immigrants who pose a threat to public safety and reducing an over-reliance on detention by maximizing cheaper alternatives to detention. Savings: about $1.6 billion annually in detention costs.
· Ceasing annual, unjustified increases in the Border Patrol budget that are disconnected from current security needs. Focus on effective programs and eliminate those that are ineffective and waste resources. Savings: $300 million.
· Eliminating Operation Streamline. Savings: more than $360 million per year.
The federal immigration detention system consumes a large part of DHS's budget. With the average detention costs at $166 per day, even the most expensive alternatives to detention models could save taxpayers more than $4.4 million daily if ICE only detained individuals who have committed violent crimes—an annual savings of over $1.6 billion.
Border enforcement spending has become a gaping fiscal black hole. The current approach to border security can be described as "spend billions now, ask questions later". As expenditures for border security increase while levels of illegal immigration decline, any marginal return on investment in border enforcement is rapidly diminishing.
William K. Moore, a partner of the Texas Border Coalition, a group of local officials and community leaders who represent more than 6 million people who live along the Southwest border, described imbalanced enforcement priorities at the border and subsequent waste. According to CBP Commissioner Alan Bersin, the U.S. apprehends up to 90 percent of people seeking to enter illegally between the ports of entry. In response, the Mexican cartels have moved the traffic in drugs and persons to the ports of entry, where the data shows they get caught only 28 percent of the time. "We cannot continue to lard the Border Patrol budget with wasteful spending – such as $242 million for another virtual fence that is destined to fail – while starving security at the ports," stated Moore. "Border security requires us to move past wasteful and anachronistic policies and implement smart strategies to meet the present danger."
Moreover, current proposals in Congress would expand the E-Verify electronic worker verification program by mandating it for all employers. Mandating E-Verify would have ripple effects beyond the agencies running the program. Alex Nowrasteh, policy analyst of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a free-market policy group, commented on the fiscal impact of mandatory E-Verify. "E-Verify is a regulatory beast that will cost the government at least $6 billion over the next ten years and decrease tax revenues by at least $17 billion over the same time span by forcing legal workers into unemployment or into the black market where they won't pay taxes." He added, "Republicans who favor small government should not be supporting E-Verify. One cannot support smaller government and increased enforcement of our burdensome, interventionist, and statist immigration laws."
"There is a different approach to immigration beyond the same-old mass-deportation strategies. We can maximize the economic power of unauthorized immigrant workers by reforming the immigration system and bringing workers out of the shadows and into the open labor market", said Ben Johnson, Executive Director of the American Immigration Council. The American Immigration Council's 2010 report, Raising the Floor for American Workers: The Economic Benefits of Comprehensive Immigration Reform, found that a legalization program for unauthorized immigrants would result in a large economic benefit —a cumulative $1.5 trillion in added U.S. gross domestic product over 10 years. In stark contrast, a deportation-only policy would result in a loss of $2.6 trillion in GDP over 10 years. "Significantly, immigration reform not only boosts the wages of newly legalized workers but it also modestly increases the wages of native-born workers because the "wage floor" rises for all workers."
"The National Immigration Forum's fiscal review offers ideas that keep our nation safe, ease our budget crisis, and put American families back on the road to prosperity," said Ali Noorani, Executive Director of the National Immigration Forum. "Poorly-prioritized, deportation-only immigration policies contribute more to the U.S. deficit than to our national security and commerce needs. If our enforcement was focused along the security priorities outlined in our report, the government could save more than $2.6 billion for American taxpayers. The Super Committee should reprioritize the federal government's immigrant enforcement expenditures and Congress should work together to fix our nation's immigration system to make taxpayers out of all employers and all immigrants."
Savings Recommendations
· Scrap Operation Streamline, saving more than $350 million per year for the prosecution of real crimes.
· Stop annual increases in the budget of the already over-resourced Border Patrol. Savings: $300 million per year.
· End the unnecessary deployment of the National Guard to our Southwest Border. Savings: $300 million per year.
· Shift some of the savings realized by ending programs mentioned above to staffing and infrastructure at ports of entry. The GAO estimates that 6000 new personnel are needed at ports of entry to prevent smuggling in to and out of the U.S. and to facilitate travel and trade.
· Programs that persistently fail to meet Administration goals or are riddled with incurable flaws, as the 287(g) program has been, should be terminated. Ending 287(g) would save $68 million per year.
· ICE's detention operations should maximize cost-savings programs, and should utilize detention only when able to justify the expense and rationale for detaining an individual facing removal proceedings. ICE could save more than $1.6 billion annually if it only detained individuals who have committed violent crimes. ICE should continue to reform its immigration detention facilities.
· Funding for the adjudication of proceedings in immigration courts should keep pace with funding for immigration enforcement. Otherwise, immigrants languish in detention, awaiting a hearing, while costs to the government mount.
· Programs such as the Legal Orientation Program, which assists detainees to represent themselves before the immigration court, make the immigration court system function more efficiently, and provide the potential for significant avoidance of detention costs.

You certainly don't need any added incentive to watch football this weekend, with a good slate of games scheduled for the Divisional Round of the playoffs - particularly in the NFC. However, putting some time into your fantasy team on NFL.com's Playoff Challenge could ensure your interest in the event of a blowout. Here are my fantasy picks for this week's games:
Tom Brady (NE): If you had him last week in anticipation of the 2x bonus he'll receive this week, you obviously want to stick with him. If your starter lost last week, I'd still advise going with Brady for your Divisional Round team. Last time Brady played the Texans, he put up 296 yards and four touchdowns. The Patriots are nine-point favorites to advance to the AFC Championship, and will also have a solid shot at making it to the Super Bowl.
Running Backs
Marshawn Lynch (SEA): The Falcons have had an incredible season, finishing the year with the best record in the NFL, but one of their glaring weaknesses is defending the run. They give up 4.8 yards per carry, good for 29th in the league. Lynch has been fantastic all season, and ran for 132 yards with two total touchdowns last week against the Redskins 5th ranked run defense. The Seahawks have a real shot at beating the Falcons this week, and they are 2-0 against the teams they could potentially face in the NFC Championship. Lynch could be rolling with a 3x or 4x bonus for your fantasy team in the Super Bowl.
Stevan Ridley (NE): I had a hard time deciding between Ridley and Knowshon Moreno, but decided to go with Tom Brady's teammate so you can potentially have two big time players with big bonuses in the Super Bowl. Ridley has been a workhorse for much of the season, and ran for 72 yards and a touchdown the last time he played the Texans. The Texans are good against the run, but if they struggle to get the ball in the end zone (as they did against the Bengals last week), the Patriots will likely be pounding the rock with Ridley for much of the game.
Wide Receivers
Andre Johnson (HOU): I'm assuming most of you will be sticking with Johnson for the 2x bonus this week, as he was the highest started receiver on NFL.com for the Wild Card Round. Facing a high powered Patriots team, the Texans are going to have to put points on the board, and the best way for them to score quickly is to look to their best weapon in the passing game. Johnson is one of the league's best receivers, and the Patriots were ranked 29th in pass defense this season.
Demaryius Thomas (DEN): Thomas has had a fantastic season, and hopefully you took my advice and grabbed him last week for the guaranteed 2x bonus in the Divisional Round. Though he didn't do much of anything (four catches, 13 yards) when the Broncos last played the Ravens, that was because Denver completely dominated the game from the start and didn't need any big plays. I expect the Ravens to keep the game closer this time around, prompting Peyton Manning to look to his leading receiver more often. I also expect the Broncos to win this game, and possibly the next game, so Thomas could get you some nice bonuses down the road.
Tight End
Rob Gronkowski (NE): Gronkowski is the best fantasy tight end in the league when he's on the field, which is why I advised taking him last week for the 2x bonus this weekend. I don't think I need to explain much here - if you had him last week, you should obviously play him; if your tight end from last week got knocked out, pick up the record-setting player who had the most fantasy points per game among tight ends this year.
As I said last week, kickers are always kind of a crapshoot. I'll be sticking with Shayne Graham, who I had last week. If your kicker got knocked out, I'd probably go with Matt Prater. He'll be kicking through the thin air in Denver, and his team will likely be in a position in which they won't be forced to be aggressive, can sit back and settle for field goals.
Denver Broncos: I'll be sticking with the Seahawks, as I had them last week, but if you're in need of a new defense and are not getting a 2x bonus, I'd go with the Broncos. They are ranked 2nd in total defense and are playing against an offense that struggles on the road. In addition, the Ravens struggled to put points on the board the last time they faced the Broncos' defense. With the Broncos' Super Bowl chances looking pretty decent, they're a solid option for your defense.

Problem installing (mac OSX 10.6 with built-in PHP)
16 September 2009 at 11:47pm
Hi Guys,
I am a newbie to SS, although I have quickly installed and played around with SS on a Linux server last month.
Now I am getting ready to seriously use it for a project so have decided to install it on my Mac 10.6. Unfortunately this time I am running into problems that I don't really know how to address.
The install starts (all of the install page config checks are green) fix the couple of access issues that the install suggests to fix. Then I click install and get a PHP date warning and then nothing. When I return to the root of the site it says - "The requested page couldn't be found."
I have included both the warning screen of the install and also the PHP information for the install.
I don't really know if my problem lies with the php config and the date setting specifically (but it says it is just a warning - not Fatal) or if the problem is something like mod_rewrite not being configured properly.
I am currently not using MAMP, although on my old machine I had the MAMP Pro licence so I can always install that if I absolutely have to. Although I would prefer not to if I can avoid it.
Any assistance or suggestion would be welcome.
Re: Problem installing (mac OSX 10.6 with built-in PHP)
17 September 2009 at 2:09pm
I'm not sure if this is your problem - the PHP info file was a bit hard to read. If you are getting the warning about setting a timezone, this is because it seems that PHP under Snow leopard is set to issue Strict errors. The fix is to edit the file etc/php.ini. You may need to create this file from php.ini.default. The line you need to change is:
;date.timezone =
I changed mine to:
date.timezone = Australia/ACT
but you will probably want to use your own timezone setting. Google 'php timezone'
(note ; removed from the start of the line)
I haven't installed a new site under Snow Leopard but my existing sites transferred over after a few teething troubles (like this one).

Thanks bruceb,
I had changed my php.ini etc, but the way PHP etc is set up under Mac OSX is a little confusing. I normally work on CentOS server. I have now installed MAMP and I am about it try installing SS. I will update the post later if this works smoothly.
Thanks for the email.

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to update that I have now got this working correctly. I have installed MAMP and then had a few issues which I thought was mod_rewrite but it just turned out to be permissions of the folders. All installed and ready to start building ;)
I look forward to getting involved in the community. Hopefully I can find some ways to contribute.

I'm having the identical problem. I really
want to use the system's apache and PHP
rather than re-installing MAMP which I've
used but would rather not.
Has anyone been able to run SilverStripe
under OS-X 10.6 with its Apache and PHP5.3?
Re: Problem installing (mac OSX 10.6 with built-in PHP)
18 October 2009 at 11:10am
I have SS running happily under 10.6 using the standard Apache and PHP. Prior to Snow Leopard I was using a separate install of PHP because the previous OS X version didn't include GD.
The only 'gotchas' I had made notes on were the need to set the timezone in php.ini and a change to my.cnf to include the following line:
lower_case_table_names = 2
This was needed to to import MySQL files from other servers.
Let me know what problems you are having and I'll see if I can help.

frodeaux, I just saw your other post. Is there anything in your error log that gives a clue? I don't recall seeing this problem, or if I did it must have been quickly fixed. if I remember, I'll let you know.

Tonight is the kickoff for this summer's concert series in Statesville called Friday After Five. It runs from 5:30PM to 8:30PM. There's beer, wine, soft drinks and food available for purchase. See more information and the entire summer schedule HERE.
Tonight's band is the legendary Catalinas. I remember that name from back when I was still in high school. Back then, if you went somewhere that the Catalinas were playing, you knew you were in for a good time. Have not seen them in a long time. There have been a few personnel changes since then. I doubt that a bunch of 70 year olds can party down for that long at a time. I know that back then I played tenor sax in a local beach music band know as the Just Six band (although we eventually fudged and added a seventh player). We could start at seven and play until midnight before we were worn out. Now, I'd say a spirited half hour would probably finish us off.
Check out downtown Statesville. Got some neat things happening there.

Actually using an icebox?
I'm fascinated by the idea of actually using an icebox as it would have been at the turn of the 20th century. Does anyone know the specifics of the blocks of ice people used to buy? The bigger question is, can you even purchase them anymore?
I think if you had the space in your kitchen or adjacent area, an icebox would be a great addition for *visual* interest. But, I can't imagine actually using it. Who's going to deliver the blocks of ice? Who's going to monitor the drip pan?
Maybe getting a block of ice during the holidays or when you're entertaining would be fun, which would handle the overflow of your existing refrigerator. A great conversation piece to be sure, but not practical throughout the year...
The modern equivalent is the cooler that you can buy from any sports store, and the blocks of ice you can buy from the grocery or gas station (many places sell block as well as the smaller cubes). The blocks are not as big as the ones you see in photos of home delivery from a century ago, but a couple would be a functional substitute.
The wiki article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_box gives an overview. Seems most of the ice that was delivered was cut from frozen lakes in the winter. The larger the block, the longer it would keep in storage, and in the home ice box.
I suspect that the modern chest type coolers are more efficient than those upright wooden cabinets, just as chest type freezers are more efficient at holding the cold air than uprights. But access to contents isn't as convenient.
Many cities still have ice factories -- there main biz nowadays is supplying retailers with bags of ice. The cakes and cubes are cut from a much larger block. For exampe, Lang Ice in Chicago starts with a 400-pound block. (They sell these large blocks for ice sculptures.)
Using an ice box for everyday refrigeration requires a huge paradigm shift. It means shopping every day for fresh foods, having dairy delivered daily, and a big emphasis on canning, salting, smoking and other room temperature food techniques.
This also means an adjustment in palate. Some of the changes would be slight, since smoked, salted and canned foods are still part of our diet, they would just play a lot bigger role. The flavor of meats and cheese would be a stretch since we have become accustomed to these items being continuously chilled. The notion of serving unrefrigerated chicken and beef is almost beyond a matter of taste in the US -- it is enough to have the health department shut you down. Delicacies, perhaps, in other countries, but not here. Meat would become hard to do every day -- expect a return to traditional cuisine where meat is a main dish on Sundays and holidays.
And of course, anything frozen becomes a luxury -- ice boxes are unable to keep things frozen. They cool by melting the ice, which occurs at 32F, so best case scenario in an ice box is that parts towards the bottom might get as low as mid-30's, with the remainder a lot warmer. (OK, there are exceptions: frozen CO2 ("dry" ice) and frozen salt water.)
re: MikeB3542
Mike, I really like how you brought up the idea of shifting one's thinking. I've been reading a lot about the way the kitchen used to work, including preservation techniques. There is something really wonderful about buying that special piece of meat from the butcher for Sunday lunch, and really savoring it, thereby taking away that everyday need for some kind of filler meat in every meal.
Ice factories and delivery of blocks of about one meter long with the cross section of about a shoe box is still common all over Asia. The ice is insulated using rice husks. Ice is mostly broken up and used to chill down canned and bottled drinks.
I'm curious why you want to use an icebox. It's a cooler, with a big block of ice you could probably replicate refrigerator temperatures for a day or two, but unless you have a thermometer you really wouldn't know for sure if your food is safe.
I think in the old days the ice that you could buy were (big) blocks cut from natural ice in cold temperatures, insulated so it would stay frozen. Ice from a commercial freezer (that you'd buy) is "hard" ice, at -25C while ice from an ice machine is "soft" ice at close to 0C but it wouldn't take long for hard ice to become soft, so unless you don't have a freezer yourself, your best bet is to freeze water in a pan in your freezer and use the block in your icebox.
For whatever it is worth, our old camper had an icebox instead of a fridge, and we lived in that thing for weeks at a time a couple of times a year. We were in Florida during the summer, and really did have to replenish almost every day.
That having been said, it was kind of neat having to actually plan your meals according to what would spoil first, and it was kind of fun! I hope that you give it a shot- wish I was brave enough; we went without a microwave for five years but broke down the other day. Oh well, I like microwave popcorn!
re: Clarkafella
There are coolers on the market that keep things cool for 3-5 days on a fill of ice, depending, of course, on the proportion of ice to food, outside temperatures, and use pattern.
Rectangular half gallon juice bottles make good ice bottles. They are reasonable space efficient, and don't drip as the ice melts. On longer camping trips thawed bottles can be reused as water bottles, or tossed.
On camping trips I keep things like mayo, cheese, eggs, and deli meats in the cooler for days. But I try to use fresh meat within a day or two. I am also paranoid about raw meat juices dripping on other things in the cooler. I also try not to have left overs, since the cooler isn't as effective at cooling food as a fridge.
Regarding buying meat each day from the butcher, watch the Ethiopia episode of Bizzar Foods. A culture where you can't keep meat cold at home is also one where the butch has to sell out each day as well - and toss any leftovers to the hyenas!
re: Sam Fujisaka
The hyenas bit was a local tradition in Harar. Someone had developed a skill in safely feeding the animals at close range, and passed it on.
The Harar wiki article gives this bbc reference:
re: Clarkafella
From the Food Timeline site, here's a 1861 recipe for Toad in the Hole. The meat buying guidelines are relevant to this thread:
]"No. 59. Toad in the Hole.
To make this cheap dinner, you should buy 6d. Or 1s. Worth of bits or pieces of any kind of meat, whicih are to be had cheapest at night when the day's sale is over. The pieces of meat should be first carefully overlooked, to acertain if there be any necessity to pare away some tainted part, or perhaps a fly-blow, as this, if left on any one piece of beat, would tend to impart a bad taste to the whole, and spoil the dish. You then rub a little flour, pepper, and salt all over the meat, and fry it brown with a little butter or fat in the frying pan, and when done, put it with the fat it has been fried in into a baking-dish containing some Yorkshire or suet pudding batter, amde as directed at Nos. 57 and 58, and bake the toad-in-the-hole for about an hour and a half, or else send it to the bakers."
---A Plain Cookery Book for the Working Classes, Charles Elme Francatelli, facsimile 1861 edition [Prior Publications:Kent] 1993 (p. 36)
an interesting local history of ice harvesting in vermont around the turn of the century (with good bits about precautions taken to keep horses from falling through the ice, and if they fell through, to keep them from dying): www.fairbanksmuseum.org/uploads/12131...
When I buy a few day's supply of stone crab, grouper, pompano, or tuna here in Florida, I keep it in an ice chest in my kitchen because it keeps it colder than in the refrigerator. My fish monger usually gives my a big bag of ice that lasts a couple days. My old cooler had a drain for the melt; my current one doesn't , which is a bit of a nuisance.
We have a wonderful, antique icebox that we use as a liquor (and other beverage) cabinet. It's oak and huge - probably 5'+ tall and 4' wide - and takes about 4 very strong people to move it. We bought it about 20 years ago deeply discounted which we figure was because nobody could move it :) It holds every liquor, soft drinks, pitchers, etc. And guests always think it's so cool :)

Rebecca & Ed's Tiny Space Maximizer
House Call
Name: Rebecca & Ed
Location: Upper West Side — New York, New York
This just-about 500 square foot one bedroom apartment is a familiar NYC layout. It's on the 4th floor of a brownstone, located on a tree-lined street on the Upper West Side of Manhattan…
Our style is very modern/minimal with a touch of warm and cozy. The obvious problem we had to overcome with our apartment is LACK OF SPACE. For example, our bedroom was so narrow that we couldn't have bedside tables. Instead, we used wedge shelves from CB2 to hold our alarm clocks, etc. I have learned so much about turning a teeny Manhattan apartment into a space maximizer!
Thanks Rebecca & Ed!

Where is the red cabinet that is holding the TV from? LOVE IT!
I second what ErinPB said - love your TV cabinet. We've been on the hunt for something similar. Where did you find it?
I'm pretty sure that cabinet is the torsby sideboard from Ikea. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40115023
I really like this layout, actually makes the space look bigger
Does anyone know the source for the dining/desk chairs?
It looks like the dog has outgrown his/her bed and prefers to sleep in the owners' room.
The first picture I thought was kind of bland, then the red popped in the 3rd picture! I like! But, I also think adding a little more color would definitely go a long way here. Nothing bulky, but just like a little flower vase, etc. Love the way you positioned the furnitures!
Really well done! Love the clear chairs at the dining table...you barely notice them. :-)
Love the minimalist look with calm colors. So nice to see this color scheme. Would love to see the kitchen and bath. We lived in a 527 sq ft studio so am always excited to see how others make accommodations with so little space.
Liking the red, but it is used so sparingly. I think a little more color can really make this place shine.
Those tiny triangular bedside tables are genius!
Cute place, but ever thought about switching the couch and the TV? Seems a shame to have the couch on the same wall as the fireplace rather than facing towards it. (Even if this is a non-working fireplace.)
If it's the torsby, they changed the handles (either ikea or the owners). Good find, though, if you break out the paint. Though with the lighting in the photos, I'm not even convinced that is red... maybe a reddish wood grain?
LOVE that chair in the living room! Where did you guys get it?
That chair is "just" the saarinen womb chair. Not uncommon, but pricey.
Similar red console here, though I sure like the legs on the pictured one above better: http://www.cb2.com/storage/furniture/fuel-red-credenza/f6249
Putting the "efficient" in efficiency! I love the dining corner with the invisible chairs -- great move!
@UWSider: either that or the pup likes to hang out anywhere and everywhere his/her peep(s) are! My dogs have several giant beds of varying fluffiness, but still want to be wherever I am, no matter how small or uncomfortable the spot looks to me. Just last night, I was folding laundry in my 2x3'-floored laundry room, WITH dryer door open into the "space," and my 85-pounder shoehorned himself in there with me.
I love how the clear dining chairs almost disappear so they don't take up any visual space.
Great apartment, Ed and Rebecca. Love the duvet cover.
i'm in love with rebecca's blog! you can see more of their apartment here:
Cute! Cute! Cute!
Love the lack of clutter, despite the small space. But I don't see any lighting; Is all of your lighting overhead?
@lepidoptery, "just" is right! Thanks for the tip - after a little Googling, I'm now a bit more educated on the subject. ;-)
Does anyone know the source of the dining chairs and table?
@ sriley I believe the table looks like it maybe from West Elm and the chairs look like something I saw at ZGallerie. If those are not the actual places where these came from, those places have very similar products.
I love the grey chair in the living room, and the clear chairs at the table! What a great layout and maximization of space :)
Most of her items came from CB2
Great light and a petit place that looks cozy not cramped. Real nice.
This is a lovely home. I'm always in awe of minimalists, being a clutterbug. This is lovely and light.
It's a little tight, but I tell you, I love it!! Really cute and you make great use of the space!
like the clean simplicity of this place. But really like the dog. Reminds me of my own.
Nice,, but I switch the tv and the couch,, against the fireplace, because the fireplace is always our focal point in the room,,i like how you broke up the light colors with some red in it,, the leather couch is perfect,i would place it against the fireplace,, maybe open it up a little bit...
oh, i also want 500sq like that... sigh =)
Yes, I agree, most items are from CB2. I recognize the dresser in the bedroom and the red credenza in the living room. I almost bought both of them. I like them so much. The apartment looks lovely. I don't think it needs more color. This is their style- bright, clean, calm.

One of the biggest stressors can be bad dealings with debt collection agencies. You can use a cease and desist letter to stop any harassment from collection agencies. Even though these letters will stop the phone calls from collection agencies, the individual is still responsible for paying the disputed debt.
Try to use credit cards only for purchases you can afford to pay off. Use cash when you need to buy something. When you do use a credit card, pay off the balance in full each month.
To rebuild bad credit, it can be a good idea to get rid of your extra credit cards. You should only have one. Try to make a payment or transfer your balance to your open credit account. You can pay down one credit card in full, rather than chipping away at many.
If you find a mistake on your credit report, be sure to dispute it! Draft a dispute letter that will go to each credit rating agency that shows an error, and prepare any supporting documents. Send any correspondence by recorded mail to ensure proof of receipt by the agency.
If you haven't taken the time lately to check your credit report for errors, you may be missing out on a lot of negligent information that can hold you back financially. Take the time to get a copy of your report and be sure to use this article to show you how to clean it up.
If you are having difficulty managing your finances, get in touch with a legitimate credit counselor. These services will help you communicate with creditors to make a simplified payment arrangement that will help you in the long-term. In addition, credit counseling will help you set up a budget and examine where your money goes. When you're trying to repair your credit, it's not uncommon to feel pressured into payment plans that you can't afford. Plan out a reasonable budget, and stick to it. If you do not fulfill these promises, you could damage your credit worse which will lead to the end of the fleeting relief you had from these arrangements. One of the most stressful things about poor credit is dealing with debt collection agencies. Cease and desist instructions can be used to ward off debt collectors to a point, but only really to prevent harassment. While such letters stop collection agencies from calling, the consumer is still obligated to pay the debts being disputed.

Not what I was expecting
August 19, 2010
I bought these gloves because I needed something light but warm for my field work and I didn't get any of that with them. I have really small hands and the gloves were small even for me, it's really hard to take them in and out and you can't even wear liner gloves underneath. Once they get wet, they're wet forever and they become useless because all you have is a tight wet glove that doesn't keep you warm at all.
Great balance of warmth and mobility
April 06, 2010
I bought the women's medium for my 5'7" daughter. Perfect fit. The liner made it a little hard to get on the first few times, but that got better once she figured out which way to point her fingers.
Great gloves for basic use!
April 12, 2010
I really like these gloves. They're warm, not bulky, and still let you have use of your hands. Great for basic outdoor activities, but not for skiing, sledding, etc. Initially was expecting something warmer, but kept these for general use outside. Fit true to size, but if wearing a liner, I would recommend going one size up.
Great gloves for detailed work
January 17, 2010
Not windstopper but great for doing detailed work with hands, such as tying knots. Put some silk liners under to keep warm when it is moderately cold out. They were a snug fit, size up to wear a liner under them. I wear large and have long fingers. Moisture resistant, dry quickly.
February 14, 2010
Love these gloves! They are waterproof and not too warm or bulky. Just warm enough when you are going from the house to the car to where ever -- and need your hand covered. Will also be great for dog walking in the early spring -- palms grip and they're not so bulky that you can't 'reign them in'. (We're talking multiple big dogs here folks!
great gloves!
October 16, 2012
Gloves fit small hands great. Dexterity is awesome. Bought these for my wife and she loves them. Would buy again and again. Highest quality product. Gloves are good.Pros: Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great value
Warmer than I thought they'd be...
February 23, 2010
I bought the Epic gloves for winter trail running with my dog. They serve the purpose very well but my hands often get too hot and I have to take them off. Otherwise, they're "epic"!
Glove is not EPIC
January 25, 2010
MH missed on naming this glove EPIC - it is not! Needs more insulation and beefiness to qualify as a ski/winter glove. Nice for trips to the Mall!
great buy
January 12, 2010
Great gloves. They are totally waterproof, but not bulky. Nice and light so I have full use of my hands
Flexible, snug fit but not very warm
January 26, 2010
These gloves fit snugly, but I would not wear them in very cold conditions. Not windproof, but otherwise a nice, lightweight glove.

The belief backstage right now is that Cody Rhodes and Goldust will be splitting up at Elimination Chamber 2014, where the brothers are expected to be involved in a match for the WWE tag titles. A match between the two is still penciled in for Wrestlemania 30.
While many fans know that Cody Rhodes and Goldust are brothes, some do not know that they are actually half brothers. Their father is WWE legend Dusty Rhodes, but they each have different mothers. The wrestling siblings are approximately sixteen years apart in age.
On February 22, OMEGA Championship Wrestling is doing a live event in Smithfield, North Carolina. Matt Hardy and Shane Helms will be headlining the event as a tag team. Gunner, Christian York and Reby Sky have all been announced for the show as well.
"Hey WWE I'm not trying to be rude but the crowd seems to really want Daniel Bryan. Juuuuuuust MAFAKIN Saying!! Geez. Sadly WWE is still run by 'Muscle Marks.' It is what it is folks."
- Shane Helms on backstage politics in WWE
A big triple threat match featuring Matt Hardy, Shane Helms and Mr Anderson, all of whom are former WWE stars, has been booked for an independent wrestling show in Wisconsin this upcoming Saturday night.
Former WWE stars Shane Helms and Carlito were down in South America together. An incident took place at the airport, which led to Helms mocking Carlito.
Devon posted a picture of himself and Shane Helms on Twitter.
Shortly after his release from WWE, Kassius Ohno has already been booked for a show in a week against Shane Helms.
Shane Helms playfully taunted Al Snow about not being given a private dressing room at an independent wrestling show.
Shane Helms has been seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. The former WWE star was charged with driving under the influences by a police officer who showed up at the scene. Helms suffered a variety of injuries, and his girlfriend broke her neck as well.
Chris Benoit shocked the wrestling world when he was able to win the Royal Rumble and earned himself a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania. He was successfully able to eliminate the Big Show to win the match.

Nails: OPI Can't Let Go Liquid Sand Nail Polish Review & Swatches
However, I was wrong. Very wrong. In fact, I love this polish. From the texture to the wear time, I'm quite impressed. It did take a little longer to dry than average but the fact that you don't use a top coat with these definitely contributes to that. It feels gritty but not flakey, it lays securely against the nail. This is definitely unlike anything else I have & I'm digging it! Keeping reading for swatches & thoughts about the Liquid Sand formulation.
OPI Can't Let Go Liquid Sand: Medium purple liquid sand texture with medium purple hex glitter in the mix. Everything but the glitter dries matte (& liquid sand) so the glitter really gives a jolt of interest & catches the light beautifully. 2 coats no base or top coat.
Although this shade doesn't remind me of Mariah Carey like at all (it isn't pink for one thing) I do love it. For one thing...it is purple. I love me some purple. This texture is very cool & my husband agreed. I've been wearing it for 4 days total & only have minor tip wear. These don't use a top coat because it ruins the effect but I've seen some great swatches (like this one here from The PolishAholic) where you can see this shade with top coat. It is lovely either way really so that's nice. It looks completely different with top coat.
I received this in my January Glossybox (I'll be posting about that later today) in a full size but a friend also bought me the set of 4 minis that I'll try to show you soon! Would I want a whole collection of Liquid Sand? Probably not, I love me some high shine. I do enjoy having something pretty, wearable, & unique though!

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

As the old saying goes, one person's trash forms the building blocks for another person's giant cow statues (or something like that). That must be the way it goes in the head of Miina Äkkijyrkkä, anyway, since she takes parts from old cars and turns them into supersized metallic bovines. The artist has had huge doses of both creative and bovine education, having attended both a school for dairy farming and The School of the Fine Arts of Finland.
Äkkijyrkkä takes care of air-breathing cows as well as the giant ones she builds. Her land is filled with both, and the flesh-covered animals mingle at the feet of the formerly mobile ones. Head over to This Is Colossal to see more of her work.
