Computer Human Interface
Wearable data storage market evolves
January 7, 2006 One wonders what we might carry with us "digitally" a decade or two from now, with memory and storage capacity getting larger and much more affordable every day. Imation got us thinking about this by showing several interesting concepts for carrying digital files at the CES – the 256 Mb Flash Wristband and the 4Gb Micro Hard Drive. They're interesting concepts, particularly the wristband, but just think that a decade from now the bang-per-buck factor will have improved by several orders of magnitude. Read More
New Heads Up Displays enter the work place
September 13, 2005 Not long ago, we were waxing on about the incredible feat performed by Motion Research in bringing the world's first consumer Heads Up displays to market for motorcyclists, cyclists and auto racers. Now we're equally as enthusiastic about the company's new consumer Heads Up displays, knowing full well that the functionality afforded by the displays could change the face of the modern workplace. VersaVue Heads Up displays are now available for commercial and industrial applications. Read More
September 7, 2005 Philips Home Dialogue Systems has announced that it will start licensing its Smart Companion technology to partners in consumer electronics and the PC or network equipment industry.

New Haptic Interface Device Adds Sense of Touch to PCs
February 19, 2005 Novint Technologies has released details of a new haptic interface device for computers that will , the Novint Falcon, which brings interactive three dimensional touch to the consumer mass market. The Novint Falcon, coupled with the company's 3D touch software, enables people to experience a realistic sense of touch on their computer, fundamentally transforming how they play and interact. Sinificantly, the Novint Falcon is expected to retail for under US$100 and represents a significant breakthrough in 3D touch technology and accessibility. Read More
World's First 3D recognition phone could evolve the user interface
January 20, 2005 The rapid evolution of the mobile phone took an interesting turn this week when Samsung demonstrated a movement recognition mobile phone, a new technology that could mark a significant point in the evolution of the man-machine interface. Information input devices for the ever shrinking mobile telephone to date have included several different forms of keypad, touch screen and voice recognition but all have their drawbacks in serving the ever increasing capabilities being packed into new designs by phone designers. In the future, 3D movement recognition technology could become an important user interface and significantly alter mobile phone designs and features. The Samsung SCH-S310 phone's 3D motion recognition user interface can be used in a variety of ways, introducing new features never before seen in a mobile phone. The most significant new feature is the ability to "write" in the air with the phone and have the phone recognise the letters or numbers being written and input those characters, or assign certain movements to functions of the phone, such as "start a new text message" or to control the inbuilt MP3 player or digital camera. This technology will do away with the need for complex keypads on mobile phones, MP3 players, digital cameras and other handheld products. This will particularly effect the way games are played on a mobile phone. Read More
NEW YORK, January 12, 2005 - Educational technology developer LeapFrog has released details of a new pentop computer. Dubbed the FLY, the pentop computer is designed to bring interactivity to the most prolific and user-friendly interface of all (pen and paper) and offers real-time audio feedback to users as they write and draw on special FLY paper.

The future of the human-computer interface
December 2, 2004 A new Australian research facility called the Visual Information Access Room (VIAR) is at the forefront of the coming revolution in human-digital interaction. The current keyboard, mouse and screen configuration will soon be replaced by digital interfaces that utilise touch, gesture and voice control and seek to integrate seamlessly into our environment. Launched by the National ICT Australia (NICTA), the Sydney laboratory looks like a futuristic office, but is in fact a test facility where sophisticated 3D models of complex systems and innovative ways to interact with complex data quickly will be developed.

Simulating Taste - the last VR Frontier
Saturday August 9, 2003: Taste is the last frontier of virtual reality according to the inventors of the Food Simulator- a haptic interface that mimics the taste, sound and feeling of chewing real food. Currently at demonstration stage, the project by researchers at the University of Tsukuba in Japan utilizes a mechanical linkage designed to fit to the mouth... Read More
New SureType keyboard
A new SureType keyboard layout from Research In Motion (RIM) is drawing praise for its effectiveness and appears to have hit a usability sweet spot for mobile devices in the candy bar form factor. SureType is a viable contender to become the next generation interface for the mobile phone sized device. The SureType keyboard design incorporates a QWERTY keyboard layout and a prominent numerical phone keypad and allows easy one-handed phone dialing. Through an integrated keyboard and software system, SureType provides users with an instinctively familiar look and feel and allows them to dial phone numbers and type messages quickly, accurately and comfortably.

I want to buy a extension tubes for my Canon XSI macro setup is Canon 100mm 2.8 macro & Canon 14ex Macro ring flash & don't want to spend a lot of money I have seen the ones on ebay for about $60 US that have 13,21 & 31mm tubes others 13,20 & 36mm tube with metal mount & body. My question is there anyone here that uses these cheaper tube & if they r happy with them with good solid conections. I Like to be able to buy Kenko but over twice the price is it really worth it???
You have a set up like that and want to skimp on a bit of money for extension tubes?
I would not consider tubes that did not maintain the electrial connections (AF and metering) with the body: Amazon.com have Polaroid ones that are considerably cheaper than the Kenko ($75 and they have got a very good reputation since they were released.
I forgot to say that these tubes have AF & both have metal mount & body & don't have a brand name on them just the company name & from Hong Kong. So r u saying the cheap ones r ok???
i have just sold my 25mm tube because it made no difference on my canon 100mm macro lens . so don't waste your money .
If you don't want to buy Canon extension tubes, buy the best you can afford. You may not be able to afford them this month, but save your money and buy better quality. That said, I have the Canon 100 Macro and some extension tubes, and like Colin the tubes never see the light of day. They will drastically reduce your working distance and AF won't work when the light levels fall far enough. My 5D MkII struggles at 1:1 as it is unless the light is very bright.
Hi Alan , So if there is no glass in the extension tubes what is the difference between cheaper tubes & ones like the Kenko & please remember I do have a Canon 14ex Macro Flash will I still have a problem??
I was Planning of using more that one tube at a time.
i don't know about the cheap ones but the canon ones will still give auto focus . and you will get nearly all your money back when you sell .
Canon (as usual) is an expensive option: Kenko and Polaroid both maintain AF - they are both cheaper and both have 3 tubes whereas Canon's is only one for almost the same price.
Denny: I have the Canon dioptre lens (55mm dia...or was it 58mm?) and it is a very good quality.
StrayCat, I don't thimk a Dioptre lens would be good with the Canon 100mm 2.8 macro lens.
Also is the Polariod Tube set made of abs & metal mount or all metal??? I would really hate to have to buy the kenko set but it look like I may have to Buy a Kenko all metal peice set & have full af & not have to use manual focus all the time like the cheap one seem to have to use, maybe even the Polaroid tubes. I bought the Canon MR-14EX & the Canon 100mm 2.8 Macro Used for about half price but the Kenko Tubes demand higher prices both New & Used.
The Polaroid are plastic tubes with metal mounts. Nothing wrong with plastic - the same stuff your camera is made of (probably even better) and they have metal mounts. The only reason to buy all-metal would be peace of mind, not practicality an if the Polaroid set had been out at the time I bought my tubes, I would have saved half the money and gone for them insted of Kenko. As I said above, the Polaroid maintain AF.

A bonus Jonas
From one Jonas to the next, we propose that Taylor Swift tries her hand at dating the younger, only remaining single JoBro, Nick Jonas. There's been some subtle hair pulling between her and Miley Cyrus lately -- ever since Miley tweeted a photo of herself in bed with a cardboard cut-out Harry Styles -- so in light of this passive aggressive behaviour, Taylor should drop the nice girl routine and date Miley's old flame Nick. This kind of hookup would also greatly annoy Joe Jonas -- just imagine the family Thanksgiving gathering -- after he famously dumped Taylor over the phone for Camilla Belle.
She is a young lady who is doing the normal amount of dating. If she was not in the public eye it would not be questioned. I do believe though, if she wants to continue here song writing/singing career, she may want to find new topics. I feel sorry for her, even though the choice was hers, that she does not have a non-public life. I am certain there are many positives and negatives in her current life style. However, being judged by the public, putting her on a pedestal for "a role model" and calling her a bully and a sex addict. Really people, take care of your own lives!
Is there perhaps some jealousy here? Just think how it would feel to have Mr. and Mrs and Ms. Every person in the world scoring you on your looks, your voice, your music, your clothes, your dates and on and on........ Lets just back off a wee bit and give her time and space to find out who she really is, people! She's livin this life one time! as are we all. I'm sure she will soon realize not EVERY guy is a frog! When the right one comes along she'll know. In the interim lets Stop judging everything she does shall we? (just askin')

When I first got into the infographic business back in 2008, it often took a long explanation to prospective clients in order to get them to understand what they were and what they did. Today, that's not a problem as dozens of new infographics are unleashed into the world every day.

There are people who love testing the patience of people around them and then there are people who appreciate and value it! Which group you belong to? Will you be screaming out from a brick-size book to make your point in a busy community hall? It'll surely draw the attention of people but for wrong reasons. So, chart your information before you climb the dais. You'll need more than just recitation to hook people to your facts.

Paranormal Activity 4 has released a new clip online, in which teenage protagonist Kathryn Newton finds herself being menaced by an unseen presence in the garage of her home.
Having discovered that the garage door is unlocked, Newton follows Scream-Queen 101 by heading inside to investigate. She even utters the words, "that's weird"!
Needless to say, as soon as she sets foot in the garage, things start falling over, strange noises start happening and everyone gets a little freaked out. Textbook stuff.
Take a look at the new clip, below…
Despite the general sense of public exhaustion with the found-footage genre, it still has a few tricks left up its sleeve, and there's no denying the level of discomfort experienced when you're seeing what the potential victims are seeing. Still, you wonder how many more PA's we'll see before the series shuts down for good…
Directed by Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, and co-starring Katie Featherston and Matt Shively, Paranormal Activity 4 is in UK cinemas now. What are you waiting for?
Read our Paranormal Activity 4 review.

A lawsuit has been filed in federal court on behalf of people infected with Hepatitis-C in the Minot outbreak.
44 people contracted the disease, making the outbreak the second-largest in the nation.
Papers were filed this afternoon in US District Court in Bismarck, alleging that ManorCare Health Services of Minot is responsible for spreading the virus to residents of that facility.
Mike Miller of the Solberg, Stewart, Miller Law Firm in Fargo says the suit seeks to be a class action representing patients who contracted Hepatitis-C while receiving treatment at Manor Care.
Two people, Lilas Guttormson and John Fenner are named as plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
Miller says he is hopeful that US District Judge Daniel Hovland will certify the lawsuit as a class action, but he says a decision is likely to take months.
The attorney says the legal action may drag out -- or be over quickly.
(Mike Miller, Solberg, Stewart, Miller Law Firm) "These types of cases can be drawn out. It's really going to depend upon how receptive ManorCare is to stepping up to the plate sooner rather than later to say something bad happened here to our people and we're going to make it right. That's...it can take a long, long time or really it can be fairly quick."
Miller attended a meeting tonight of victims of the Hepatitis-C outbreak and their families.
The meeting featured Dr. Casmiar Nwaigwe, director of Trinity Hospital's infectious disease department.
The group is hoping to convince the state Health Department to continue its investigation of the outbreak, since the department has been unable to determine exactly how the victims were infected.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>

Industrial-parts maker Rexnord Corp. (RXN) has initiated a review of strategic alternatives, including a possible sale of the company.
The company said it has engaged Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) to serve as its financial adviser, and may also consider selling one or both of its business platforms, or maintaining the current structure.
Shares jumped 14% in after-hours trading to $23. Through the close, the stock had risen 12% from its March initial public offering price of $18.
Rexnord's industrial-components business makes bearings, chains and gears, while its water-management business makes drainage, faucet and other products for plumbing wholesalers and other distributors. The company is controlled by buyout firm Apollo Global Management LLC.
The Wall Street Journal reported in December that the company was exploring a sale of its water management business. People familiar with the matter said at the time that the deal could bring in around $1 billion, the Journal reported.
Rexnord also said Monday that its fiscal third-quarter earnings rose 64%, benefiting from fewer charges despite lower revenue.
For the quarter ended Dec. 29, the company reported a profit of $9.2 million, or nine cents a share, up from $5.6 million, or eight cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding the impact of a prior-year fair-value adjustment and other items, per-share earnings were flat at 19 cents.
Revenue fell 2.9% to $471.7 million.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting per-share earnings of 20 cents a share on revenue of $497 million.
For the current quarter, the company projected sales of $535 million to $555 million, while analysts were expecting $555 million.

"Should Scotland be an independent country?"

I've just listened to playwright Kieran Hurley's forthright and energising Aye! Talk in which he lists 25 reasons why he's voting Yes in September's referendum on Scottish independence. Most of the 25 reasons relate to Kieran's own political and moral preferences, things that he dislikes about the UK that he hopes can be done better … Continue reading
I've just watched Jim Sillars on the Aye! Talks website giving a speech about the upcoming referendum on Scottish independence.

The best thing about … Continue reading
Steven D. Levitt is a professor of economics at the University of Chicago and co-author of a series of books that have the word "Freakonomics" in their titles.

Yesterday The Telegraph reported on the current house price boom. The average asking price in England and Wales is more than £262,500 – 7.3% higher than it was 12 months ago. For those of us who struggle with the concept of cumulative growth 7.3% doesn't sound like a very big number but if you do … Continue reading

I'm not sure how we got here, but we live in a world where money has become the unit that we use to measure value. When we ask how much something is worth, we're asking how much money someone would be prepared to pay for it. But how much we pay for something – how much … Continue reading
This article by Gordon MacIntyre-Kemp at Business For Scotland annoys me on so many levels. Firstly, he buries the only substantial fact in a short paragraph in the middle of the piece.

Our politicians, the economists who advise them, and the journalists who report their words and deeds tell us over and over again that our country is "living beyond its means" and the government will "run out of money" unless it "balances the books". We're told that government spending is restricted to the amount of money … Continue reading
I have just ploughed my way through the first four chapters of Scotland's Future, the Scottish Government's white paper which argues the case for voting "yes" in next year's referendum on Scottish independence, and outlines the Scottish National Party's "priorities for action" should they be voted back into government after Scotland becomes independent. I confess … Continue reading
Yesterday was spent attending the Radical Independence Conference 2013 in Glasgow, organised by the Radical Independence Campaign which employs the slogan "Another Scotland Is Possible".

There's a debate going on in some nerdy corners of the internet about negative interest rates, which sounds like a desperately dull thing to be wasting time on, but it could be the spark that lights the lamp that leads us out of the economic gloom into a bright and prosperous future.

I have just watched this interview in which Ross Ashcroft of the Renegade Economist talks to author and film-maker David Malone about democracy, economics and more.

In this article in the Daily Mail Richard Littlejohn picks on a single mother in an unpleasant attempt to reinforce the prejudice of his readers against people who claim welfare benefits.

This interview with economist Steve Keen might be hard to follow in places because he talks so quickly but his central message is clear.

I made the mistake today of listening to a "video" from MoneyWeek entitled "The End of Britain".

Here's a video that gives a simple explanation of how money might work in an independent Scotland. Sadly the makers of the video fail to acknowledge the elephant in the room, a creature that's going to make a mess of the carpet regardless of which of the three options we choose. All three choices in the video … Continue reading
Here's an excellent article from Gerry Hassan in which he takes our politicians and media to task for failing to address the real problems in our society. He argues that the debate on the UK government's welfare reforms is so narrow and shallow that it completely misses the point: we have a chronic poverty/hardship/welfare/finance problem … Continue reading
With the referendum on Scottish independence a little more than a year away the debate remains depressingly shallow. The "Yes Scotland" campaign presents us with a wishlist of policies and outcomes that it would like to come to pass in an independent Scotland without acknowledging that the only certain outcomes from the referendum will be … Continue reading
This article on the BBC News website tells us that the US Treasury expects to reach the "debt ceiling" sometime in October. The debt ceiling is an arbitrary amount of federal government borrowing that Congress has decided cannot be exceeded. It's a bit like an overdraft limit for the nation. The limit has been imposed … Continue reading
I have been self-employed for the best part of 30 years. If I'm not doing something that a client has agreed to be invoiced for, then I don't get paid. That's a whole working life on zero hours contracts, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I can pick and choose who I work … Continue reading
The UK government has been very successful at promoting the idea that our system of welfare benefits is at the mercy of legions of scroungers who are cheating the taxpayer out of vast sums of money and thereby contributing significantly to the annual deficit. The resulting "benefits rage" provides a very effective smokescreen, helping to … Continue reading
There's a great deal of confusion about the nature of money: what it actually is and how it works.

They … Continue reading
This article by Tim Harford in the Financial Times tells us that the gap between rich and poor has grown significantly over the last few decades, and suggests that the trend is self-perpetuating: the bigger the gap the easier it is for the rich few to become richer and fewer.

On the 18th of September 2014 people who live in Scotland are going to have to vote "yes" or "no" to the following question: "Should Scotland be an independent country?", but I wonder how many of us really know what we're being asked to vote for. What exactly will happen if enough of us vote … Continue reading

Police say that most likely it was a rock that shattered a vehicle's windshield in that case. The reward in the case of several random shootings along roadways has been increased to 102-thousand dollars.

Patrick H. Neely502.574.1351
Disturbed by comments made last week about eliminating suburban cities, the Republican Caucus of the Louisville Metro Council filed a resolution today in support of those cities and fire districts.
"One of the promises of merger was to allow suburban cities to continue to exist," said Council President Kelly Downard, R-16. "It is disturbing to think that an elected official would want to eliminate the important supplemental services that suburban cities provide."
On May 6, The Courier-Journal reported that a local official told the paper "merger was intended to cause current suburban cities to dissolve, not get bigger."
All 11 Republican Caucus members are co-sponsoring the resolution.
"We are nationally recognized for strong neighborhoods," said Councilwoman Ellen Call, R-26. "Groups such as the Brookings Institution have stated that our neighborhoods are one of the assets of our community. Suburban cities and fire districts fill an important role by providing valuable, efficient supplemental services. "We must recognize that suburban cities and the Louisville Metro Government work together to make our community a better place. It shouldn't be portrayed as an adversarial relationship because we all are working together to improve the quality of life for our families."
The resolution expresses support for suburban cities and fire protection districts because "suburban cities and fire protection districts are efficient providers of supplemental services; suburban cities and fire protection districts provide quality and cost-effective services to a significant portion of residents of Louisville Metro; those services are a complement to the ones provided by Louisville Metro and serve a valuable role to the citizens they serve as well as positively impacting the entire community; and one of the promises of merger was to allow suburban cities to continue to exist."
Rep. Scott Brinkman, R-32, worked on the legislation that implemented merger.
"Merger was sold on the basis that suburban cities and fire districts could remain in existence," Brinkman said. "There is nothing in the legislation that would require a suburban city or fire district to merge into Louisville Metro."
The resolution will get its first reading at the council meeting Thursday, then be sent to the Government Administration Committee, which meets next on May 17. The sponsors are: Ken Fleming, District 7; Kevin Kramer, District 11; Kelly Downard, District 16; Glen E. Stuckel, District 17; Julie Raque Adams, District 18; Hal Heiner, District 19; Stuart Benson, District 20; Robin Engel, District 22; James H. Peden, District 23; Doug Hawkins, District 25; and Ellen Call, District 26.

DHS Evading FOIA Process or not?
The Associated Press says it's obtained a thousand emails showing DHS sent FOIA requests to senior political advisers who turned scoured them for information about the requesters and delaying disclosures deemed too politically sensitive. DHS spokesman Sean Smith says, they were just giving senior leadership visibility into FOIA releases to enable the Department to be as responsive as possible. FOIA's are designed to be insulated from political considerations. AP says DHS stopped the practice after their investigation.

The Quiet Japan
My flatmate came to visit and we decided to go to Nikko to see the temples and shrines. Anywho: We also went up lake Chuzenji to hike. While it didn't prove to be much of physical challenge and the rain was pouring down, it did look a lot better in the pictures than in real life.

Back in September, I wrote about Saints Row IV and how you could make your character almost fat. It was a pretty fun roundup of fat characters in video games. There aren't a lot, but some are quite excellent.
Well, I got 100% on GTA V, I saw the UFOs, I've done a bit of searching for the jetpack and I'm finally ready to get back to leaping tall buildings in a single bound and using the Dubstep Gun. Our girls are at V's dad's for the night, so you know where I'll be.
this means a lot, my boyfriend considers him self fat no matter what I tell him. One of my best guy friends thinks no one will date him because he is over weight which is the most un true thing every. All guys bodies are attractive.
This means a lot to me too because my boyfriend also thinks he's fat regardless of what I say. The saddest day was when I watched him step on a scale and get sad at a number he saw. Spread the love.
My boyfriend always puts himself down because he thinks he's too skinny, :(
shout out to all my male followers (;
how is it only now that more people seem to be realising that guys suffer too? this isn't aimed at anyone i'm just saying… i'm a guy and i hate my body, people have laughed in my face before when they found out that i hate myself because they think that only girls suffer… so yeah, boys suffer too.

#remember when sookie was played by a fat actress and there were literally no jokes about her weight on the show? #remember how she wasn't defined by her weight? #remember how she got to date and get married and have kids and not be just the token funny fat friend of the main character? #remember when she ~got her life together and was happy before lorelai and that wasn't seen as threatening?
remember how her insecurities (which she did have, because doesn't everyone?) had nothing to do with her appearance and were more about her artistic failures, her ability to be a mom, her "annoying quirks" she thought Jackson would get tired of?
remember how even though she was often clumsy forgetful and disorganized she was still portrayed as a competent adult? remember how her decision to get married and have kids didn't diminish her career as a master chef and entrepreneur? remember how she was a bubbly and funny supporting character without being shallow or unintelligent?

Family recreation such as boating and fishing are the two basic activities on these lakes and reservoirs. Most have ramps for boat launching and a few have marinas, including refueling facilities. Some allow water skiing, jet skiing and even windsurfing. Swimming areas are often available. Some have fish cleaning stations. Fishing from shore is popular at most, and there is wintertime ice fishing at several. But, there is more.
Camping at or near these waters is popular. Most have campsites ranging from primitive to full-service. Some of the lakes and reservoirs are the location of an Idaho State Park or other government-managed facility with amenities for day-use and overnight campers. Some offer rental cabins or have yurt-style tents for rent.
Hiking trails around or out from these waters provide visitors with the opportunity to explore the area. Many lead to spectacular vistas and nearby features of interest. Bike , ATV and winter season snowmobiling, cross-country Nordic and snowshoeing trails are also maintained near several of these lakes and reservoirs.
On the other hand, these pristine, peaceful locations also offer a unique opportunity to just unwind when away from the routine of your everyday life. Whatever your wish, make your plans now.
Idaho's Family Fishing Waters
Scenic Stanley Lake, located in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, is one of nearly 100 lakes, reservoirs and ponds designated as Family Fishing Waters found across Idaho.
For more information and a complete listing of all the waters in the Family Fishing Waters program, see the latest Idaho Fishing Seasons and Rules booklet. The 2013/2015 edition can be downloaded from the link shown just below.
When you visit these awesome waters of Idaho, don't forget your camera and binoculars!
Fishing regulations and rules are, of course, vastly different on each water. The 2013/2015 Idaho Fishing Seasons and Rules booklet is available here. To download a free PDF File copy of the official regulations and rules in whole or in part,
click here.
Now, take a look at a few of the larger, more popular Idaho waters, listed here alphabetically:
This 1,200 acre alpine lake, one of many in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, is 37 miles north of Ketchum, Idaho and 25 miles south of Stanley, Idaho off State Route 75. Take Forest Road 205 west from the highway. Camping, boating, fishing, hiking.
American Falls
At 56,000 acres, this reservoir on the Snake River is the largest in Idaho and is owned and operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. Located off Interstate Route 86 between Burley, Idaho and Pocatello, Idaho. Good fishing for rainbow and cutthroat trout and other species year around, including ice fishing during colder winters. Boat ramps, docks and fuel available. Visitor Center in the town of American Falls. Camping, boating, fishing.
Anderson Ranch
Located in the southeast corner of Idaho off U.S. Route 89, about half of this 20-mile long lake is in Idaho and half is in Utah. The 966-acre Bear Lake State Park is found at the north end of the lake, with a separate beach unit on the east side. Popular with boaters, water skiers and swimmers, the lake also has cutthroat and lake trout fishing in the summer, with dip netting for the smelt-like Bonneville cisco (found only in Bear Lake) looked forward to during a specified winter season. The area is well known for superb raspberries, celebrated with a festival in August at nearby Garden City (see Bear Lake Raspberry Days on the Local Events tab on this website). Camping, boating, fishing, swimming.
When you visit Bear Lake, take a fascinating side trip to the largest cave in Idaho, Minnetonka Cave. The Forest Service guides tours through the cave from mid-June to Labor Day. See spectacular stalactites and stalagmites! No handicapped access. Tennis shoes are perfect and a sweater or light jacket is suggested. From the west side of Bear Lake at Fish Haven, take the Fish Haven Creek Road (Forest Road 413) to this popular attraction. See a photo taken inside Minnetonka Cave on the TOP ATTRACTIONS PAGE on this site.
C. J. Strike
South of Mountain Home, Idaho on State Route 51 to the town of Bruneau, then west on State Route 78. This popular 7,500 acre fishery for both cold water and warm water species was formed by damming both the Snake and Bruneau Rivers. Interesting angling for the prehistoric sturgeon occurs at the dam. These catch and release monsters can go up to 10 feet long and 300 pounds. Surrounded by the Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area and close to Bruneau Sand Dunes and the Bruneau Dunes State Park, this site is loaded with sightseeing adventures. Camping, boating, fishing.
Seventy-four miles north of Boise, Idaho via State Route 55, this body of water is the result of a dam on the North Fork of the Payette River, and stretches between the Idaho towns of Cascade and Donnelly. The 4,450 acre Lake Cascade State Park with 4 campgrounds can be found on the northwest of the impound. Fisherman catch Coho salmon, rainbow trout, perch and smallmouth bass, year-round including through the ice in the winter months. Camping, boating, fishing, biking, hiking.
Coeur d'Alene
Just possibly the most beautiful alpine lake in all of the U.S., it is over 25 miles long, with over 120 miles of shoreline. The city of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho sits at the north end on Interstate Route 90. Many North Idaho attractions, such as Silverwood, the largest theme park in the northwest, are nearby (see the Top Attractions tab on this website). Landlocked Chinook salmon up to 40 pounds and tasty kokanee trout are top prizes for those fishing these waters. Camping, boating, sailing, fishing, biking, hiking, sightseeing.
Duck Valley Reservoirs
These 3 reservoirs (Billie Shaw, Mountain View and Sheep Creek) on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation are a "must do" for the stillwater fisherman. Billie Shaw Reservoir is the smallest at 430 acres, managed as a trophy trout fishery. No motors allowed, fly fishing only, single barbless hooks. Most fish from float tubes or small watercraft. $25 daily fee. Mountain View (633 acres) and Sheep Creek (788 acres) have smaller trout and are managed as put-and-take fisheries, but larger fish are lurking. Both have a $10 per day fee for adults, $7.50 per day for kids 12 and under. To get there, take Interstate Route 84 from Boise to Mountain Home, then south on State Route 51 to Duck Valley Reservation. Watch for reservoir signs. Camping on the three reservoirs is available at $6/night without electricity. Campsites with electricity are $12.50/night. Information: 208-759-3246
Heyburn State Park Lakes
Take U. S. Route 95 south from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, then State Route 5 east from Plummer, Idaho. This park, the oldest in the Pacific Northwest, is comprised of 5,500 acres of land and 2,300 acres of water. Chatcolet, Benewah, and Hidden Lakes are all part of the park, and the St. Joe River can be found on the park's east border. These smaller lakes are good fisheries for pike, bass and pan fish. Osprey and blue heron are common at the park, making bird watching superb. Trails for hikers and equestrians are shaded by tall pines. There's a public boat ramp and fuel dock. Boats, canoes and kayaks can be rented. The Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes, a 72 mile paved bike trail, goes right through Heyburn State Park. A favorite for camping, boating, water skiing, fishing, hiking, biking or just hanging out.
This famous, 6,000-acre high mountain lake is at Staley Springs, Idaho, north of Idaho Falls and west of West Yellowstone, Montana on U.S. Route 20. Three to five pound cutthroat trout, three pound brook trout and even larger cutthroat-rainbow hybrids can be caught here. Henrys Lake State Park, with 44 campsites and 3 rental cabins, is at the south end of the lake. Boat ramps and a fish cleaning station are available. Another classic, Island Park Reservoir, is about 15 miles south of Henrys Lake (see below). World-class stream fishing on the Henrys Fork, Madison and Gallatin Rivers is nearby. Camping, fishing, hiking, biking.
Island Park
This shallow reservoir is south of Henry Lake, off U.S. Route 20. The waters are not as productive as in past years, but there are still many large rainbows lurking about. Boat ramps are available, but float tubing is a popular way to fish this spot. West End and Buttermilk are two campgrounds at the reservoir, or camp at Harriman State Park to the south of Island Park Fishing is the attraction here, but wildlife and bird watching is a spectacular pastime.
Lucky Peak
A popular, weekend getaway east of Boise on State Route21, Lucky Peak is a 12-mile long reservoir on the Boise River. The waters are a favorite for boaters, other watercraft users and water skiers, so keep your cool if fishing for the trout and bass is your desire. Lucky Peak State Park is made up of roadside Discovery Park (picnic and fishing area), Sandy Point Beach, Spring Shores (boat ramps, a full-service marina and on-site watercraft rentals), and Idaho City Backcountry Yurts and trail system for overnight camping and trail adventures. Boating, fishing, swimming, camping, picnicking.
The 34-acre Sandy Point Beach Unit at Lucky Peak is located at the foot of the dam. It is made up of a large, sandy swimming area with a giant fountain. There are two volleyball courts, shady trees, green grass, changing areas, restrooms, showers, charcoal grills and picnic tables. If you find yourself in Boise and you need to cool off, come on over for a dip!
This 1,000-acre reservoir on the Big Lost River is off U.S. Route 93, six miles northwest of Mackay, Idaho. A small, recently-renovated and well-appointed campground operated by the BLM has level, paved trailer sites. 12,662-foot Borah Peak, the highest point in Idaho, is just to the northwest. There is a boat ramp at the campsite. Fish the upper end with midges, pheasant tails, hare's ears and wooly buggers or troll the river channel. The Big Lost River can be blue-ribbon quality. Camping, fishing, hiking.
Located along U.S. Route 26 southeast of Idaho Falls, Idaho and northwest of Alpine, Wyoming, this body of water is the result of slowing the Snake, Salt and Greys Rivers in Wyoming. Only a small percentage of the reservoir is in Wyoming. The outlet at the northern end is Idaho's Snake River. The reservoir is about 18 miles long, with campsites around the impoundment. Several boat ramps are available near the town of Palisades, Idaho and at other points. The reservoir offers up cutthroats, browns and kokanee, as well as lake trout (Mackinaw). The fishery is open all year, with the summer being the worst for fishing due to irrigation demands. Camping, fishing, hiking.
Pend Oreille
The largest in Idaho, Pend Oreille (Pond-er-ray) lies in the North Idaho Panhandle. At 65 miles long and 15 miles wide at its widest point, these unspoiled waters are the playground for recreation-seekers from around the world. The quaint town of Sandpoint, Idaho, is perched on the north end of the lake, and can be reached via U.S. Route 95 from the south, or U.S. Route 2 from the west. Sandpoint is the perfect base from which to explore the lake and the surrounding area. Boating and fishing are the main attractions on Pend Oreille. The fishery has given up a 37-pound Kamloops trout, and prize-winning Dolly Varden trout and Mackinaw trout are often caught. Public ramps and marinas are found all the way around the lake, and campgrounds are associated with many of the launch areas. Camping, boating, sailing, fishing, swimming, hiking, biking.
Beautiful Priest Lake is located to the northwest of Sandpoint. Take U.S. Route 2 west out of Sandpoint or east out of Newport, Washington to the small town of Priest River, then State Route 57 north to the lake. Priest is in the Selkirk Mountains just 30 miles from the Canadian border. It is 19 miles long, and is surrounded by dense forests of fir, cedar and tamarack trees. 775-acre Priest Lake State Park is on the lakes eastern shore. The popular location features over 150 campsites, 5 rental cabins and a group camp. It has boat ramps, docks and boat rentals. Fishing is big here. The lake gave up the world record Mackinaw trout and also offers up trophy rainbows. Camping, boating, fishing, swimming, hiking in the warmer months, with wintertime cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and ice fishing.
Have you ever eaten wild huckleberries? They are great and they can be found in the Priest Lake area! The Lion Creek drainage area is usually productive. They ripen at lower elevations beginning in mid-July and at higher locations in late July and early August. Check with park personnel and experience huckleberry hunting...and eating!
Located 10 miles northeast of Rupert, Idaho via State Route 24, then east on Minidoka Dam Road. This 25-mile long reservoir, caused by a dam on the Snake River, adjoins the marshy Minidoka National Wildlife Refuge which offers some of the best bird watching in Idaho. Lake Walcott State Park, on the northwest end of the impound, has camping and picnic spots with grassy expanses and shady, hardwood trees. Camping, boating, sailing, windsurfing, and bird watching.
There is a wonderful disc golf course at Lake Walcott State Park. Bring your Frisbee!

My sister has terrible shoulder pain. I can hear her arm popping and snapping as she moves it over her head. They told her she has calcium deposits in the tendons and that it will go away on its own. But it's been almost a year and she's still suffering. Should she go back and see her doctor?
Yes, most definitely. Calcium deposits in the tendons of the shoulder are referred to as calcific tendinitis. This is a disorder characterized by deposits of hydroxyapatite (a crystalline calcium phosphate).
These deposits can develop in any tendon of the body. The tendons of the rotator cuff surrounding the shoulder are affected most often. The calcific deposits can be seen on X-ray as lumps or cloudy areas. That's how the diagnosis is confirmed.
Pain and inflammation result in loss of motion and function. Sometimes patients report shoulder stiffness or weakness. There may be a snapping or catching sensation during certain shoulder movements. The condition is often self-limiting meaning it goes away or resolves on its own in time (usually six months to a year).
Treatment begins with antiinflammatories, steroid injections, and/or physical therapy. Most patients are encouraged to stick with the treatment plan for six months. If, after six months, the pain isn't reduced enough (or at all), then shock wave therapy called extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ECSW) may be considered. ECSW may be a good next step before thinking about surgery.
If your sister has not had any of these treatment interventions, then that might be the place to begin. But if she has tried all that unsuccessfully for at least three to six months, then surgery may indeed be the next step. Seeing an orthopedic surgeon who can evaluate her shoulder and compare X-rays from a year ago to now will help guide and direct her treatment.

Singapore, Singa...
This outfit was inspired by a blog posted by the Selfish Seamstress.
I loved the idea of a cape dress whereby the cape is attached using the buttons on the dress. As I already have a cape pattern, I didn't want to buy another. Instead, I used a dress pattern from burdastyle and a vintage cape pattern, made modifications for both to recreate the look.
Ikea cotton fabric, buttons, poly lining

THis is an absolutely fabulous dress! I am download ing the dress pattern right now because you've inspired me – such a classic and very flattering style! Amazing work!

Aug 11, 2010, 01.51 PMby puffling
Very chic styling. I think the choice of fabric, the length, cape(let) etc. makes it look very crisp and lady-like, but in a sexy-librarian kind of way ;)
I think I may try to copy it if I can find the same fabric. Hope you will take it as "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" rather than "Hey, that woman stole my idea!"
Aug 12, 2010, 12.21 AMby embaby
Thank you Puffling! Hahaha…no problem, I'm more than happy to see more versions of it. I didn't come up with the idea though, it was an idea from a vintage sewing pattern…genius isn't it?

The way those pleats open is JUST RIGHT. The cape is a nice addition too, in a pretty-but-understated way.

Thank you! This is my first experience with box pleats and I enjoyed the learning experience.

You've done a lovely job of this. I too like the idea of the cape being attached using the buttons of the dress. Just beautiful Honey, perfect plaid matching too – which is always a winner!
I think you've way underestimated yourself – that plaid matching is in no way "novice"!!!
Aug 11, 2010, 11.22 AMby embaby
Thank you! You made my day :) I did spend quite a while to match the plaid. Am glad with the results :)
Aug 11, 2010, 03.22 AMby angelical
simply stunning! and even the cape plaids matches the ones on the dress!

NORFOLK -- The Cordish Companies will soon give new life to Norfolk's aging Waterside property.
Norfolk City manager Marcus Jones selected the Cordish Companies from among five developers who submitted proposals for Waterside.
To see what Cordish might do at Waterside, 13News hit the road to visit two of their entertainment venues in Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Xfinity Live in Philadelphia held its grand opening in March and sits in the heart of the Philadelphia Sports Complex. Billed as Philly's 4th arena, Xfinity is composed of a large indoor market place surrounded by six dining concepts.
Within the Philly MarketPlace are some of the city's most famous vendors: Nick's Old Original Roast Beef, Chickie's and Pete's, and the Original Philadelphia Cheesesteak Company. Among the restaurants are Broad Street Bullies Pub, the Victory Brewing Company's German-style Beer House, and the up-scale Spectrum Grill.
"We thought it was very important to bring a lot local flavor here to Xfinity Live, and it's really made our first month very successful, very popular and growing in popularity," says Rob Johnson, a Philly-area native who is part of the management team Cordish Companies put in place at Xfinity.
Cordish says Waterside Live in Norfolk would also include a blend of local businesses and national chains that they've had success with in the past.
They envision similar elements of the MarketPlace in Waterside Live as far as a central indoor area for events and casual food options.
From the City of Brotherly Love 13News shot down I-95 to Charm City where Cordish Companies headquarters in Baltimore's Inner Harbor.
Powerplant Live opened about a decade ago and according to company officials in more popular now than ever.
There is also a blend of local and national dining options including Ruth Chris Steak House, Leinenkugel's Beer Garden and Joe Squared which is a Baltimore-based pizza shop specializing in coal-oven pizza from Brooklyn, NY.
Cordish recently spent about $10 million on upgrades to keep the atmosphere fresh. The "patio" feel of the property is an open air setup where visitors can easily pass from venue to venue while listening to performances on a sheltered center stage.
"We would do something similar in Waterside Live as far as an open air setup that feels less like a mall," says Mike Stoltz, a member of Cordish's team assigned to Waterside.
Stoltz says that Cordish has built a strong reputation by only leasing to top-quality vendors and requiring them to keep high cleanliness and security standards through a stringent leasing process.
Stoltz said, "People in Norfolk and the entire Hampton Roads region want to go to something that's unique to their city and something that they can be proud of."

Daydream Destinations: Auluani, A Disney Resort
My late-year (and admittedly last-minute) jaunt to Hawaii may not have happened, but I can still dream about the spots that I was aiming to hit on my tour. Disney's Auluani is a brand-spanking new resort located on a private cove on the capital island of Oahu. The sprawling property is perfect for families looking for a happy holiday away from home. There are loads of accommodation options (personally I'd opt to stay in a sea-view villa), buckets of activities (I swear I never, ever, jamas surf better than I do in Hawaii) and a rad spa. I know, I know, it may be too much of the Mouse, but honesty, after my sailing on the Disney Dream this spring, I was pleasantly surprised (and pampered) by all of the adult offerings.
Of course, my Hawaiian tour was intended for the day job, which means I would have been checking out all of the wedding options. Did you know that in the 20 years that Disney has been hosting the Happily Ever After Weddings, they've married more than 40 thousand couples? Packages are offered on the beach avec or sans arguably the most famous long-term couple.

Daydream Destinations: Surf Goddess Retreat, Bali
I've got Bali maj on the brain lately. Maybe it is because one of my friends is on a private EPL adventure for a few months on the Indonesian island. And another friend recently tempted me into touring Bali in the fall. (Details on that adventure are still developing.) And while I'm excited to tour temples, lounge on the beach and test out all of those amazing Balinese spas, the adventure that's really calling my name is a week at the all-women surf camp called Surf Goddess. I attended a surf camp in Mainland Mexico a few years ago to honor a big birthday and it totally changed my life. And now that I've got a board, wet suit and all the accoutrement one needs to ride waves, I'm in need of some brush-up tips on form. Taking a week at this laid-back retreat will get my pop-up back in form and my turning moving forward. They provide all the gear, along with yoga classes, yum-o, island fresh meals and my time-away-must have: massages, all in the gorgeous jungle-ringed beaches of Bali. Charge it!
[That's me in Maui.]

Do Facebook, Zynga care about shareholders?
With the founders firmly in charge, it seems they sometimes have other priorities, which makes this writer mad.
Back in the day, company founders and CEOs cared about their public shareholders. People had something called a conscience. Fast-forward to the 2000s and these same moguls couldn't care less.
First, Mark Zuckerberg sucked every last drop of value from Facebook (FB) shares at the IPO. Groupon's (GRPN) founders did the same. Public shareholders? Oh, they are bag holders. Didn't you know?
Now, in an video interview with Reuters, Zynga's (ZNGA) CEO Mark Pincus says he doesn't base success on that pesky little thing called "stock price." (Ironically, in the video interview, Mark brazenly boasts a "Bubble Safari" T-shirt. You couldn't make up stuff this hilarious.)
So exactly how does Pincus measure success? Hold your laughter: "I am measuring our success in two ways: One is I am measuring it anecdotaly of 'Are we making an experience that gets through to our moms?'" Yup. Moms!!! Not shareholders. Moms!
Pincus goes on to shrug off his $183 million purchase of the overnight success OMGPOP (which has since lost its buzz) and says he will continue making risky bets. He also admits Zynga is not a powerhouse like Electronic Arts (EA) or Activision Blizzard (ATVI), rather a company that is a new startup every month. As public investors begin to understand this truth, expect more to bail on the stock,which has already been hammered from a 52-week high of $15.91 to the current price of $5.
As a businessperson, I have a ton of respect for Mark Pincus. He's built a business at world-class speed. However, I find the hubris and lack of respect for public shareholders is a disgrace -- not only to Pincus and his C-Suite, but to the American public markets and IPO system.
Damien Hoffman is the editor-in-chief at Wall St. Cheat Sheet. As of this writing, he did not own a position in any of the aforementioned stocks.
More from Wall St. Cheat Sheet
Back in the day, Amazon's Jeff Bezos made a related quip. This was in a PC Week interview in the late 1990s, when AMZN had never turned a profit and didn't seem interested in doing so.
Bezos answered the interviewer's question about Amazon's profitability by smirking (it seemed) that business wasn't really basically about profitability; that wasn't its lifeblood. This answer made the rounds and right quick. I believe it was two quarters later, amidst reports of extreme pressure being directed at Bezos, the books were suddenly showing profitability.
Heaven best help Zuckerberg and Pincus. Their hubris certainly won't - nor will it be benign.
Stockholders clamoring for money money money at the expense of the customer is where the problem is at.
I'll be the first to admit I dont think Zuckerberg has made all the right decisions. But the tone of this article, frankly, disgusts me.
In the old days, shareholders cared about the companies they owned. They held onto the stock for years at a time and followed the long-term prospects of a company. Now stocks are traded like baseball cards and the price swings wildly based on a story that the CEO wore a T-Shirt to an interview. Nobody seems to care about the long-term plans for a company, they are more focused on the guidance for the current quarterly numbers (the actual numbers don't even matter anymore, it is the guidance driving the prices).
Management that worries only about meeting the current quarterly accounting numbers tend to make decisions that are bad for business in the long run (e.g., selling a profitable division, cutting R&D expenses, etc.).
He may not have expressed it as well as he could have, but I think Pinkus is on the right track long term by focusing on creating quality products that appeal to a wide audience, then letting the money matters take care of themselves.

Pandora announced Tuesday a brand-new feature titled Pandora Premieres, which is certain to give music blogs a run for their money.
Pandora Premieres is a new station on the platform on which U.S. users can listen to albums in full before their official drop dates. The feature launches today with new albums from John Fogerty and Laura Marling.
All a user need do to listen is to add the station to his/her store of tunes, and from there s/he can listen to any track on the album — in any order — as many times as s/he likes. This is a major plus for Pandora users, since the platform does not offer on-demand listening. Artists will also feature a ton of exclusive content and interviews.
In recent years, it's become common for bands to premiere new albums via streams on music blogs, allowing users to listen for free a week or two before the actual release date. Some streaming services, like Rhapsody, also tease albums before release. However, the ability to listen to tunes on Pandora for free — and on mobile — should be an interesting prospect for users.
We wonder how many artists — and what levels of artist — will engage in the coming months.

text: Orchard Park, NY (WBEN) The NFL has granted the Buffalo Bills a 24-hour extension, which will give the team an opportunity to sell the remaining ticket inventory to lift the local television blackout of the Sunday, November 17 game against the New York Jets at Ralph Wilson Stadium. The team has until Friday at 1 p.m. to sell approximately 3,500 general tickets. This is the second time the Bills have been given an extension to avoid a blackout this season. Last month, the Bills needed an extra day to sell out the remaining seats to get the game against the Bengals on local TV.
