"Ive been dating girls but I've never really had a serious relationship to talk about and now I feel ready to talk about my relationships.
Come Spring this year, my life changed, massively. When I met someone and they made me feel so happy, so safe and everything just feels…great. Well that someone is a guy, and it did take me by surprise a little bit. It was always in the back of my head that that could happen, but it wasn't until Spring this year that it just clicked and felt right." - Tom Daley x
Paul Walker — best known for his role in "The Fast and the Furious" movies — died Saturday afternoon after a single-car accident and explosion in Southern California … TMZ has learned.
The accident happened in Santa Clarita — north of Los Angeles — and according to multiple sources connected to Paul … the actor was in a Porsche when the driver somehow lost control and slammed into a post or a tree … and then the car burst into flames.
We're told Paul and another person in the car were killed. Law enforcement is still on the scene, and we're told the L.A. County Coroner's Office is on the way.
At this point, it's unclear what caused the accident, or who was behind the wheel when it happened.
Paul was 40 years old.
Sources close to Paul tell us he was in Santa Clarita for a car show to support the Philippines typhoon relief effort, and had been taking friends out for rides in his new Porsche GT. The accident happened during one of those test spins.

The single-car crash occurred around 3:30 p.m. on Hercules Street near Constellation Road in the Rye Canyon Business Park, fire officials said. Spectators gathered at the scene, and several said the driver was the star of "The Fast and the Furious" series of films. One witness at the scene said he tried to put the fire out and recognized Walker inside the vehicle. Walker is said to have business ties to Always Evolving Performance Motors, located down Constellation from the scene of the crash. Always Evolving hosted an open house and car meet on Saturday. The red Porsche was reduced to unrecognizable twisted metal in the single-car crash. "At the conclusion of the accident the vehicle struck a light standard and the whole car was burned," a Los Angeles County Fire Department spokesman said. The two occupants of the vehicle were unable to get out in time, he said. A sheriff's deputy at the scene said the Porsche driver appeared to have lost control of the car, which hit a tree. Both a tree and a light standard were downed at the scene. Spectators gathered at the crash site as the afternoon darkened into evening, held back from going too close by yellow caution tape. One, who was quite agitated, said he was concerned one of the dead in the sports car was a prominent actor. A yellow Honda sports car was inside the taped area along with the remains of the Porsche.
Paul Walker, why him? noooo
my thoughts are with his family.
Congrats JJ <3

Jamie Blake (Dean Martin playing off his alcoholic and womanizing image) said it best when he warned his partner Fenderbaum (Sammy Davis Jr.) to watch out for the "Blimp". Once the rotund Victor Prinzi (played by Dom DeLuise) felt the need to defend himself or his friends, the sound of "Dun Dun Dunnnn" would fill the air and suddenly Captain Chaos would emerge with his cape and mask to save the day. It wasn't a traditional looking superhero (although much of mannerisms were ripped from a comic book), but it didn't matter. Considering this was an All Star cast (in a B-Grade movie), Captain Chaos stood tallest of all.

Whatever scale you are looking for, please contact the library nearest to the your area of interest to find out if we have what you want, alternatively you can email us: firstname.lastname@example.com Find your local library Research and enquiry services Understanding maps and the National Grid It is easier to find maps if you know the reference number and scale of the map you want. If you do not know the reference number contact your local library and staff will help you. Alternatively email email@example.com Maps in the UK use a reference system called the National Grid. This can be used to find all Ordnance Survey maps at all scales, including 6 inches to a mile (1:10,000 scale) and 25 inches to a mile (1:2,500 scale) for rural areas and 50 inches to a mile (1:1,250 scale) for urban areas. Guides to reading maps, using the National Grid and understanding map scales can be found on the Ordnance Survey website: Learn about the National Grid Understanding maps and map reading Get-a-map ESCIS – National Grid references for East Sussex towns and villages Large scale maps You will need a very detailed large-scale map if you are trying to find a specific building, such as tracing the history of your house or investigating the history of your local area. Large scale maps include: 1:1,250 – shows names and numbers of buildings, roads, fences and landscape features in urban areas 1:2,500 – shows roads, fences and landscape features in rural areas 1:10,000 – shows general information about roads, road names, major buildings, rivers and streams. Most libraries have large-scale Ordnance Survey maps covering their local area. Some libraries such as Hastings, Eastbourne and Lewes hold larger collections. Ask the Land Registry about How do I find out who owns a property or piece of land? Small scale maps Small scale maps are useful for planning car journeys or going for a country walk. You can find these maps in the reference, local history and travel sections of our libraries. Small scale maps include: 1:25,000 – includes field boundaries and major buildings, but not road names and other smaller details. These are sometimes called medium scale maps and are part of the OS Explorer Map series. 1:50,000 – individual buildings are grouped together as blocks and field boundaries don't appear. These maps are part of the OS Landranger map series. 1:250,000 – shows place names, road and river networks, and uses map symbols to highlight places of interest 1:625,000 – shows major towns, cities, roads and rivers. 1:1,000,000 – shows the whole of Great Britain, featuring cities and major towns, motorways and primary roads and county boundaries. These maps have reference numbers based on the map series and location. For example, Lewes is on the Landranger 198 and Explorer 122 maps. Full sets of modern Explorer maps for the whole of East Sussex – some of which can be borrowed – are held at the following libraries: Bexhill Library Crowborough Library Eastbourne Library Hastings Library Lewes Library Uckfield Library. Find the reference number of the map you want using the Ordnance Survey map shop. Historical maps Before the Second World War a different grid reference system called the County Series was used. You can identify historical maps using online resources: Old maps Sussex county gazetteer Maps of the Sussex Weald Old Sussex Mapped Many of our libraries hold printed copies of County Series maps for their area. These maps date from the 1870s to the 1930s. Some libraries such as Hastings, Eastbourne and Lewes hold larger collections.

Designers were working on a new Department of Transportation headquarters building in Washington, D.C., when 9/11 hit. The resulting need for heightened security could have driven the team to turn their neighborhood-friendly facility into a fortress. They didn't.
Designers at St. Joseph Hospital in Orange, CA, were working on a new $130 million Patient Care Center and had to pack in a complex array of technology. They could have showcased gadgets at every turn. They didn't.
In fact, both groups chose to strategically hide technology. At the DOT (see "Securing Comfort"), hedges grow around bollards and cameras sit inside an overhanging cornice. At St. Joseph (see "Health Tech"), communications, backup systems, and power and fresh-air supplies are positioned behind walls.
Each facility serves its users well. DOT employees, visitors, and passers-by are protected in a way that comforts, not confronts. St. Joseph patients and guests feel the healing power of a facility that is more hospitality than institution.
Both facilities serve their function well with high-tech sophistication in smart spaces that work for those who work in them.
Sometimes the road not traveled makes the biggest difference. It's the subtle touch, the unpronounced visual, the invisibly fulfilled need. A secure facility does not need the proverbial Beware of Dog sign everywhere, and a sterile facility does not need white walls and hard surfaces only.
What they didn't do here speaks as loudly as what they did do.
Sometimes the choices are not as clear. Our cover shot speaks of what designers could do. Maybe. Architect David Fisher has designed a building that he says will generate more power than it uses, rotate on every floor, and increase construction efficiencies with a prefabricated, modular approach (see "Newsworthy: The Ultimate View"). If such a concept comes to fruition, the possibilities of what buildings could do aesthetically and functionally would multiply.
What would a skyline look and feel like with dozens of swirling architectural masses? Should technology be hidden or flaunted? The question is not only what technology could do but what it should do.

On the Idea that Direct Democracy is Impossible
Photo by Tobias Gellingskog
This a post on the topic of political process. It does not advocate any ideology, but a technology as a means to improve the current mode. A friend recently, after one of my tirades against representative democracy, asked me to come up with an alternative, upon which I surprised myself with an answer that followed my usual stripping down of government to necessary duties of a larger than communal government (such as research and other beneficial fields that require larger amounts of resources). What was the surprise? I linked machine learning at an app level with voting. Imagine a program that would vote for you based on what it knows about you. A program that you could adjust according to your preferences, and whose vote you could adjust if it voted against your opinion. Imagine a world without politicians. Maybe you're sceptical, so here is my proposition and my answer to some potential objections.
The posited app/program would be based on machine learning. It would continually get better at voting according to your specific wishes. It would basically learn from your moral judgements, the basic principles you hold, as well as from your continual adjustments to its voting. You would sometimes go in and answer some questions to improve its functioning. This technology is already available in increasingly effective versions (search 'Machine Learning' for more on this subject). It would basically function as a voting avatar of yourself. Right now one politician represents you and thousands, for some of you hundreds of thousands or even millions of others. Every vote that politician casts will inevitably carry a high fail rate. By that I mean that the vote won't represent the opinion (vote) of a great number of people whom the politician represents. An avatar working towards representing you specifically as accurately as possible is likely to succeed in doing so better than a politician which should (but doesn't always) cede to the statistical majority of her or his constituency.
Possible objections:
1. The Accuracy Argument
Basically the reasoning here goes: an app like that would not be accurate enough. Let's put this argument into its proper context. The meaning of accurate enough can only and must be the result of a comparison to the current mode and its accuracy. If this machine can be better than a politician at representing your vote, well then this argument does not hold. So how would we compare? In any representative democracy each member of a house, senate, reichstag, or any other assembly represents a great number of people. In the U.S. each member of the house represents 726,765 people ( U.S. pop. 316,143,000 / 435 members of the House of Representatives). Adding the Senate to this does not help since the 100 members there cannot be added to the 435 of the House, but instead each represent 3,161,430 people. Let's use the lower figure, that of the House. How many differing opinions on one issue whose answer is not yes or no could 726,765 people have? In theory as many as there are people. But let's posit that it is a yes or no question. Let's say that the vote goes 93% for, 7% against (yes, I am being very generous). That means that if the politician actually does vote according to her or his electorate, which (again) is not always the case, then this politician would have nullified the votes of 50,873 people (0.07 x 726,765). In the current mode you cannot ask your politician to change her or his vote. 50,873 people would not be represented. If all these people had an app and it had a 7% fail rate it would achieve the same result. With the fail safe of you being able to change the vote for a period of time, this number would fall, and the fail rate would continually drop as the app learns your preferences. A point to consider is also that the average misrepresentation by politicians is probably not going to be as low as 7% considering that people are divided 50/50 on many issues. The conclusion is that the app would not have to be very efficient in order to be better than politicians at representing you.
2. The Tampering Argument
The app could be tampered with. Let's also put this into context. In the current system you can influence one person, and that person represents (in the case of the U.S. House) 726,765 votes. One move = 726,765 votes. I would qualify that as a very vulnerable system. The argument here seems to assume that people (politicians) are incorruptible and completely fail safe. Using similar technology to that banks use for security you would have a fairly safe system, able to withstand attempted tampering at a large scale. The main point is, all systems have vulnerabilities. If we can protect money online enough to trade, then we can vote using a similar system. And should your vote be tampered with, you yourself would be able to correct it.
3. The Expert Argument
This argumentis the easiest to refute. It states that we elect politicians to vote for us on the basis that they know better when it comes to issues of economy, law, science, morality, etc. The truth is that the range of fields, disciplines, subjects, topics or whatever categories you want to put in there that politicians have to deal with in number by far surpass the ability of any one person to master or become an expert in. Sometimes politicians rely on expert advice, well so can a program, albeit in the form of parameters which would be measured against your settings or end all/kill all presets. For instance, "I am completely against war". The more advanced the technology would become the better it would be at learning the consequences of a topic, and therefore it would be able to vote more accurately according to your desire.
I don't believe that this technology is here yet, but I could be wrong. What do you know about this, and would you like to share it with our readers? I will make space for a debate on this topic if there is interest. Send us your opinions on this subject to firstname.lastname@example.com

The big biotech network in the Greater San Diego area is again expanding. Biotech professionals who take the San DIego Biotechnology Network's offer to join a growing network of ten to twenty thousand professionals, get a piece of the organization's sponsored advertising.
Tables at monthly events give the professionals an opportnity to learn other biotech professionals names, and put out theirn name on a sign, with SDBN posted at the table. Face to face networking sets up opportunities to say a name, and an idea. More than 100 professionals sign up for SDBN's monthly events.
Summer, the organization plans to step up growth in the industry that went through an innovation drain during the recession. Biotech leaders keep the talk on professionals, and their job work, going. Scripps. Pfizer. Amylin. Lilly. And, ChemDiv. Growth takes new ideas. Biotech entrepreneurship, a San Diego enterprise guarantee inthe past, turned second rate. Time to "rethink the normk" in entrepreneurship, the organization says.
San Diego professionals who pass on the hanshake and name exchanges at the monthly events can join SDBN's LinkedIN network. The social media channels, like Facebook, keep the latest word going out daily. Professional to professional. And, professional to researcher.
Text keeps biotech messaging constant. New word can also strike the eye. A professional enterprise name can take a place on the top banner at the SDBN online website.
E-marketing gets found online all the time. One tweet on Twitter can get a biotech conversation going. On health dynamics. On diagnostics. Or, on green technology.
Hear about a seminar? Bioethics and digital health need idea exchanges.
Advertising in the network moves the biotech professionals past limits on connections that hold back growth. The San Diego Biotechnology Network, in return, becomes a more popular office name.
The line continues next week. . . .

Nobody ever accused J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon of being deferential, not even with the U.S. government. Even as J.P. Morgan JPM, +0.17% wades through a swamp of federal charges and fines, Dimon is still known as the bank CEO willing to speak his mind when others want to fly under the radar.
To some, he's the executive who runs a bank that is finally getting its reckoning, such as November's $13 billion deal with the Justice Department to settle allegations that the bank misled investors about mortgages it bundled and sold in the run-up to the financial crisis. To others, he's the guy being unfairly singled out by the government because he's so bold as to point out its shortcomings. Here, in Dimon's own words, a few of the statements drawing the spotlight. — Christina Rexrode
At left, Dimon speaks at the Institute of International Finance Annual Membership Meeting in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 12.
Nov. 19: J.P. Morgan says it still plans to sue the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. receiver to try to get it to pay for some lawsuits stemming from Washington Mutual. This comment came after the federal government fined the bank some $13 billion.
Dimon says in a conference call that the bank has "the full right" to "go after the receiver" for certain claims, "and we intend to do it."
"But we're very patient. … And if it takes five years, we're fine with that."
Aug. 12: New York Magazine publishes an interview where Dimon is asked if he regrets being such an outspoken defender of the banking industry.
"Everyone is afraid of retaliation and retribution. We recently had an event with a hundred small bankers here, and 85% of them said they can't challenge the regulation because of the potential retribution. That's a terrible thing. OK? This is not the Soviet Union. This is the United States of America. That's what I remember. Guess what — it's a free…country."
At left: Dimon testifies before a Senate Banking Committee hearing on Capitol Hill June 13, 2012.
June 13, 2012: Dimon, testifying to the Senate about the London Whale trading loss, is contrite on many topics. (He calls the trading loss "something I cannot publicly defend," for example.) But he also says he doesn't know if Dodd-Frank has made the financial system safer, and criticizes Congress for not passing the Simpson-Bowles financial plan.
"If we had done something remotely like Simpson-Bowles, in my opinion you would have reduced uncertainty about taxes. You would have increased confidence in America. You would have shown a real fix of the long-term fiscal problem.…And we missed an opportunity to do it. I do think it helped cause a downturn last year."
At left, Dimon testifies before the House Financial Services Committee on Capitol Hill June 19, 2012. in Washington, D.C.
May 11, 2012: "Meet the Press" tapes an interview with Dimon just after the bank releases details on the London Whale loss. David Gregory mentions how Dimon supported Obama in 2008 and asks if he's still a Democrat.
"I would call myself a barely Democrat, at this point.…I've gotten disturbed at the…anti-business behavior, the sentiment, the attacks on work ethic and successful people. And I think it's very counterproductive."
At left, Dimon at the World Economic Forum.
April 13, 2012: Dimon, on an earnings call, dismisses the London Whale trade: "It's a complete tempest in a teapot."
Dimon says later that his statement was "dead wrong," but the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations does not forget. It mentions the teapot comment multiple times in a March 2013 report, titled "J.P. Morgan Chase Whale Trades: A Case History of Derivatives Risks and Abuses."
At left, former J.P. Morgan employee Javier Martin-Artajo (center), indicted by a U.S. grand jury in relation to the bank's London Whale trading scandal, leaves Spain's High Court in Madrid Nov. 15.
Feb. 13, 2012: Dimon, in an interview with Fox Business Network, implies that the Volcker rule would "destroy" U.S. capital markets.
"Paul Volcker, by his own admission, has said he doesn't understand capital markets. Honestly, he has proven that to me."
At left, the headquarters of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co in New York.
Dec. 7, 2011: Dimon speaks at the Goldman Sachs U.S. Financial Services Conference the day after President Obama gives a speech blaming "the breathtaking greed of a few" for the financial crisis.
"Acting like everyone who has been successful is bad, and because you are rich you are bad — I don't understand it, I don't get it. It is what it is. J.P. Morgan will be here for 100 years; that's how we're managing the joint."
Dec. 7, 2011, take 2: This was also a few months after Warren Buffett wrote a New York Times editorial saying the superrich should pay more in taxes.
"Warren Buffett gets mostly dividends and interest income, which is why it's 17%. But most of us wage earners, OK, are paying 39.6%. … I don't mind paying 50% and just like President Obama I would love to lift up the poor, the impoverished, the inner-city school kids. But we still want a meritocracy."
At left, a trader at the J.P. Morgan stall on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Nov. 19.
June 7, 2011: Dimon attends a speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, and during a question-and-answer session, asks Bernanke if the Fed has considered that heavy new regulation could hurt the banks so much that it hurts the economy.
"Has anyone bothered to study the cumulative effect of these things, and do you have the fear, like I do, that when we look back…that they will be the reason it took so long that our banks, our credit, our businesses and most important our job creation started going again? Is this holding us back at this point?"
At left, U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke
Jan. 29, 2009: Dimon went to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, while bank stocks were plunging as rumors buzzed that U.S. banks might be nationalized. According to the Daily Telegraph and the Evening Standard in London, he was quoted as saying: "J.P. Morgan would be fine if we stopped talking about the damn nationalization of banks. We've got plenty of capital."

Finished David Tennant's last season of Doctor Who.
I love that man. I loved Christopher Eccleston because I had watched the most episodes with him before I watched all the season and he was awesome. Wish he had done more. But David Tennant is so goofy and adorable that he's definitely my favorite. Which makes me sad. I've seen some of Matt Smith's episodes before and I just don't like him…damn.

Our friends' daughter is 10-years old.
She's been fighting cancer for 4 years. The cancer is rare enough that she's been given trial status for the last two of those years. Experimental trials with exhausting chemotherapy that would devastate an adult body, much less that of a small, innocent child, and the parents just received the news that she has two months to live.
This isn't my place to say anything. This isn't even the right place to say anything. A post on a fucking Tumblr doesn't do fucking anything to reverse this horrible fucking news. I just don't know what to say, whom to say it to, or how to say it.
The doctors did everything they could and a 10-year old girl is going to die. Fuck cancer. Fuck everything. Fuck it all.
At this point, they would be $2.5 million dollars in debt if it wasn't for St. Jude. That's the only good I can say about anything right now.

Keeping a home at a comfortable temperature year-round often requires following a few simple tips. One of the most obvious ways to maintain a comfortable and inviting temperature in your home is to adjust the temperature settings on your AC unit control panel. For example, during the winter months it is often advisable to lower the temperature in order to conserve energy and produce a better sleeping environment.
Reduce Wear On An AC System
Many studies have indicated that cooler temperatures are more conducive to better sleeping. Saving money and sleeping better is as simple as adjusting your thermostat each evening. In other instances, homeowners can use an automated thermostat that will automatically adjust the temperature each evening. Conversely, raising the thermostat by a few degrees during the summer months can serve to save energy and reduce wear on a heating system. Most importantly, a few degrees in temperature are often unnoticeable to the occupants of a home. Your home can stay comfortable, inviting and pleasant even when adjusting a thermostat by a few degrees.
Better Circulate Air Throughout A Room
Another important consideration with regard to maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home is to take full advantage of existing ceiling fans. Even the rooms where there are no ceiling fans can stand to gain from the simple and easy installation of one of these affordable devices. Utilizing a ceiling fan is a smart way to better circulate air throughout a room and an entire home. This is a smart strategy because using ceiling fans can greatly reduce the necessity of running an air conditioner during the hottest times of the summer.
Blocking The Sun's Rays Can Greatly Improve Temperatures Indoors
When a ceiling fan is set at a low setting it consumes far less energy as compared to an air conditioner. Striking a balance between air-conditioning and ceiling fan usage is often the best approach. The key is to keep air flowing throughout your home while maintaining a comfortable environment. It is also a good idea to ensure that the windows that receive sun exposure are well protected. From window film to drapery, blocking the sun's rays can greatly improve indoor temperature conditions during the hottest times of the year. Contact Delta BAP to learn more about Phoenix air conditioning and heating services that are both impressive and affordable.

The True Blue and True Black fountain pens use the 23kt Palladium Nib. The Michelangelo fountain pens and rollerball use a magnetic fit cap.
You can see more information on the Visconti Back to Black Collecton here.
8th October, 2014:
Another new product from Visconti for 2014 is the Venus Collection Venus, Visconti's new pen for 2014 is inspired by one of Sandro Botticelli's most famous masterpieces: The Birth of Venus. Painted in 1482, the painting represents the power of divine beauty, both physical and intellectual, in the human form. It is also said to raise a response in the viewer to raise in their minds thoughts of the Creator.
Visconti's Venus Fountain Pen is made from resins with unique rose and white colours which celebrate the sensuality of the feminine form. The pen comes with Visconti's unique 18-facet shaped barrel which has become so popular in the Visconti Michelangelo range.
The Rose Pink Fountain pen, a perfect ladies pen, comes with rose gold plated fittings and a rose gold plated flexible steel nib to match, while the white version comes with palladium plated fittings and a steel nib to match.
The Venus also features a magnetic cap closure. Just post the cap and will feel the perfect click. The security and power of the magnetic locking system that has been further improved.

7th October, 2014:
Announcing the release of the 2014 Michelangelo pen. This new edition of the Michelangelo series is fitted with Visconti-s award winning 23 carat palladium Dreamtouch nib. In order to develop this collection, Visconti's designers were inspired by ancient Greece with an extremely elegant shape, as difficult to realize, as much to represent a must of stylographic art.
Thanks to their technicians and to a new technology just set up, they were able to realise a faceted shape composed by 36 sides (within the cap and the barrel), tapered on the two extremities.
Michelangelo is probably the first pen to be made with 36 faces that makes it looks like more as a diamond than a writing object: the value of a diamond, after the weighing in carats, is in fact due to the quality cut and the number of faces.
Just rotate the pen in your hands to appreciate its unique shape!
The central band has a decorative design of a double Greek key, composed by the V logo of the Visconti brand.
Like the Rembrandt, the Michelangelo also features a magnetic cap closure. Just post the cap and will feel the perfect click. The security and power of the magnetic locking system that has been further improved.
The classic colors, True Black with palladium trims; Blue Navy with gold trims, are both very elegant indeed.
You can see more information on the Visconti Michelangelo Collecton here.
6th October, 2014:
The two latest colours in the Visconti Van Gogh range are now available to order; Iris and Pollard Willows. The new Van Gogh is not a simply coloured pen. Like the great artist's works, it is a symphony of colour. Visconti have identified twelve key and important works by Van Gogh, and have created twelve unique and distinctive natural vegetal resins to complement the colours in these great works.
You can see more information on the Visconti Van Gogh Collecton here.
3rd October, 2014:
A beautiful new release from Viaconti - the Dinvina Elegance. The Elegance is available in two lovely marbled colours - blue and brown. Divina is a collection of very innovative writing instruments that carries in its DNA the Italian Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci and the golden number (1,618), which is said to transmit the key of knowledge.
The golden ratio applied for the first time to a writing instrument has generated a revolutionary design changing the aesthetic canons of fountain pens.
Some of the distinctive elements are the pentagram and the proportion between cap and section, but the really captivating feature is the sterling silver spiral that harmoniously envelops the pen.
These elements melt together in alchemy of forms and proportions to make a pen that can be defined as the fifth essence of elegance: so modern to seam timeless, so ancient to seam supernatural. In one word: Divina.
You can see more information on the Visconti Divina Collectons here.
30th September, 2014:

I have managed to wangle just two of the new Visconti Homo Sapiens Crystal Swirl fountain pens out of the five that managed to make hteir way to the UK. From the primordial oceans of a prehistoric Earth,here's the new Visconti Homo Sapiens Crystal. As the through the whole world was shaken by the fury of the elements, volcanoes erupted everywhere and most of the Earth's surface was made of deep seas. This powerful scenario is what we had in mind as we created the Homo Sapiens, one of our most successful pens. The new version is inspired exactly by those enraging seas which dominated our planet ages ago.
If Fire was the dominant element in the previous Homo Sapiens iteration, its Justaxposed force, Water, is the pen's main theme. Water is never still, it flows and it's never the same. It can make canyons out of small fissures, it can't be stopped or captured, just like our creativity, like a good idea. And exactly like a thought, it always change is the key for growth and it's synonim to evolution. The bluish/greenish hues of the pen's body, with their mesmerizing swirls, will differ from pen to pen, so that each piece is truly unique, just like ourselves as human beings. We made only 1000 pieces, as we wanted it to be a special collector's item.
The Homo Sapiens line, from its bronze origin to the Crystal model, is one of our very distinctive traits. Whoever holds them, holds an important piece of our pen making history.

The new Onoto Excel is now shipping.. The Excel in black acrylic with sterling silver fittings is the first in an entirely new range of Onoto pens and as such, is sure to be in demand from collectors around the world.
Smaller and slightly slimmer than many of the other models in our range which are all based on the 1937 Magna, the Excel still retains the classic look of the 1920s and 30s, and is certainly a pen with panache!
Made from rich black acrylic and complemented by a broad sterling silver cap band and combined hooded cap-end and clip, it's highly distinctive and very elegant. Hold the Excel and you will feel the same perfect balance that comes with all Onoto fountain pens.
The distinctive sterling silver cap-end is engraved with 'Onoto England' while the barrel is engraved with 'Onoto THE Pen' the distinctive and iconic marketing slogan first used in 1910 which set Onoto apart as a brand and gave it market leadership in the UK and around the world for many years. A sterling silver barrel button with the edition number engraved into it finishes the overall luxury feel. The Onoto Excel in Black acrylic is produced in a limited edition of only 50 pens. Each one comes with an Onoto Presentation Box and a signed Certificate of Authenticity, together with an Onoto History booklet, an Onoto blotter and a cleaning cloth to keep your pen in tip-top condition. Also included is a leaflet on "How to care for your Fountain Pen", and a booklet on English hallmarks to explain the history of these stamps of quality. Each Excel is hallmarked on the sterling silver cap band and includes the famous "OPC" Sponsor's Mark for Onoto Pen Company.
You can see more information on the Onoto Excel Limited Edition pen here.

Beats by Dr. Dre Tour In-Ear Headphones
" Where to start? I bought these in-ear headphones from Best Buy a while back. They lasted me around 3 hours of total time out of the box before the left earphone began to produce crackled sounds and static. I take incredibly good care of my belongings and my Apple In-Ear Headphones are still working fine after nearly 2 years of continuous use as my primary set of in-ears. ..." --Kelu
Ortofon e-Q8 in-ear earphones

Ortofon e-Q7 Ear Canal Headphone
" Prior to purchasing these, my primary concern is to have a proper alternative for my ESW9 which have better isolation to be used for listening to my ballad tunes on the road. While I don't have any issues with louder tracks, with more subtle ones, my ESW9 aren't up to the task, and so my search began. Actually, I'm not really keen on the idea of using an IEM since they irritate my ears..." --lotusbloom
Ortofon e-Q5
" This "moving armature" descendant of the Ortofon e-Q7 makes no sacrifices in terms of quality, despite being introduced at a more affordable price point. The introduction of a new cord and strain relief system help tame microphonics and make the model easy to wear both down and over the ear. The all-aluminum housing is large and may not fit all ears, but the design is simple and..." --Dekimasu
Beats Tour 2.0 In-Ear Headphone (Black)
"This new version of tour is slightly better than the old ones. The bass part is less than the first version and I can tell Beats started to care about the sound quality. But still, everything else don't go very well on this earphone. It is still closed, make people dizzy. Still, I think we can get better sound quality earphones in this price other than Beats Tour.

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough,
if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows
us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not
that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often
hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts
confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this
is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat
sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to
ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the
sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new
spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into
cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via
Suggestions for future Aero-Linx
segments are always welcome, as well.
The concept of unmanned aerial vehicles was first used in the
American Civil War, when the North and the South tried to launch
balloons with explosive devices that would fall into the other
side's ammunition depot and explode. This concept was also
used by the Japanese for around a month in World War II, when they
tried to launch balloons with incendiary and other explosives. The
idea was that high-altitude winds would carry them to the United
States, where the dropping bombs would cause panic. Apparently,
both these ideas were not effective.

Book Description:
The Compelling, Tragic Story of a Great Cheyenne ChiefAs white settlers poured into the west during the nineteenth century, many famous Indian chiefs fought to stop them, including Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, and Geronimo. But one great Cheyenne chief, Black Kettle, understood that the whites could not be stopped. To save his people, he worked unceasingly to establish peace and avoid bloodshed. Yet despite his heroic efforts, the Cheyennes were repeatedly betrayed and would become the victims of two notorious massacres, the second of which cost Black Kettle his life. In this first biography of black Kettle, historian Thom Hatch at last gives us the full story of this illustrious Native American leader, offering an unforgettable portrait of a chief who sought peace but found war.Praise For Thom HatchThe Blue, the Gray, and the Red"Clear and even-handed. . . . This popular history recounts grim, bloody, lesser-known events of the Civil War. . . . The slaughter of Black Kettle's Cheyennes at Sand Creek . . . forms a devastating chapter."-Publishers WeeklyThe Custer Companion"Highly recommended . . . a reliable and impartial guide to the subject and literature."-Library JournalCuster and the Battle of Little Bighorn"A work that is readable by itself, meticulously researched and clearly written."-The Tulsa World
