Charging with 110v outlet as primary charger
Charging with 110v outlet as primary charger
If you live in proximity to available Level II charging or have it available @ work you might be okay by just topping off at home and doing the bulk of your charging at either of those. It could be doable if you need to tide over until your living arrangements change.
Check out this thread: http://www.teslamotors.com/forum/forums/charging-110v-outlet
and this blog: http://teslaowner.wordpress.com/2013/02/11/living-with-110v/
expect about 3mi/hr so your commute would have to be @36 miles or less round trip if you can't recharge at work...
I use 110 as my primary charger and it works fine.
My commute is just 28 miles so haven't had any issues.
I have a 44 mile commute and I'm planning to charge from 9 to 7 to take advantage of the off peak rates and then top off if needed on weekends.
top off with longer 110, or 240?
Recharging 0-91% (a full standard charge) will take about 53 hours, so you won't ever be able to fully use the battery. Even if you can recover your normal usage, you will have trouble recharging after any unexpected driving, plus it seems a shame to have an 85kWh Model S and only drive it 25mi/day :).
It really isn't that expensive to have a 240V outlet installed if you can at all.
Yes I meant with the same 110.
Agreed, eventually the 14-50 is coming but it'll be a couple of months. BTW it is not going to be an 85KWh only a 40
I am planning to install a 240v outlet but since getting my S-60 last week have been just using a standard outlet with no problems, getting 3-4 miles per hour of charge. Should be fine for anyone without a long commute.
If you take a big road trip you may want to top off at a public level 2 charger (see the plugshare and recargo mobile apps) or a supercharger.
@agiangone - ok, a 40kWh makes more sense, as you can do a full charge in about a day.
I am a 1 week old owner and still relying on my 110v outlet until I am convinced otherwise. I have a question on maximizing MS battery longevity. Is there any detriment to battery longevity if a MS consistently maintains a charge that varies between 45-65% charge capacity over a span of years, versus a battery that maintains a charge that varies between 65-85% of capacity? Because I am relying on a 110v outlet, I find that I can only maintain the former range of charge, but want to make sure this does not adversely affect battery life over the long run.
@rockyb - I doubt it. Generally it is staying at too low a charge or too full a charge for a period of time that causes problems.
Agree with jat, as long as you're not running down to near zero a lot, being in that mid range state of charge shouldn't be bad. "trickle" charging with 110 won't hurt the battery at all either, so as long as you don't get range anxiety, I wouldn't be overly concerned. Just plug in to your 110 as often as you can. If it gets cold, I think you might not get the full 3 miles/hour either as it might get used up with holding the battery temp, but if you're in a garage I think that will be OK.
Thanks guys. The speed of these responses tells me I am not the only one in love with my new toy. Is it wrong to dream about a car?
After I got my car, the charger did not fit in the outlet I had installed a couple weeks earlier. It turns out the electrician accidentally used a Nema 14-30 instead of 14-50. My experience was also a charge of about 3 miles per hour.
A 110, what do you drive 2 days a week? Thats a joke
I live in a condo, charge on 110V (fortunately work from home so I get 20 hours of charging a day), and repay the HOA using this:
My advice to anyone considering 110V charging is "have a backup plan." For me, it's a free SemaConnect unit a few miles away, and some ChargePoint units at the local mall. If you get below about 20F (guessing) I think you get zero miles of range added per hour - you just end up keeping your battery warm, and with lower temperatures you might even LOSE range.
Charging on 110V in a locale where you get long, cold winters is practically impossible IMO, unless your garage stays fairly warm.
I drive 30 to 40 miles a day and have been just fine with charging at 120V. I recover 40 miles overnight.
On the weekends if I run the battery down to 0 I just plug in Sunday night. Come Monday morning I have 40 miles, enough to make it to work and back.
I can Level 2 charge at work. That is, so long as the chargers aren't all hogged by Leaf's, as is usually the case. But I've only done that twice out of novelty.
At some point I'll probably put in a NEMA 14-50. But 5 weeks of having the car so far and I haven't felt a pressing need.

GCHQ Neglected To Tell Its Overseers That The NSA Granted Widespread Access To PRISM Databases
from the oversight! dept
One of the common themes that these revelations keep re-emphasizing is that the intelligence community keeps insisting that they won't abuse their powers because of their strong "oversight." And yet, every time we get a chance to look more closely at the actual oversight, we find that the oversight is almost non-existent. The intelligence community is as cagey and misleading in private classified sessions as they are in public.
[Julian] Huppert, the member of Parliament, served on a committee that reviewed – and recommended against – a push from the British government for more powers to access private data before the Snowden materials became public last year.
At no point during that process, Huppert says, did GCHQ disclose the extent of its access to PRISM and other then-secret NSA programs. Nor did it indicate that it was seeking wider access to NSA data – even during closed sessions held to allow security officials to discuss sensitive information. Huppert says these facts were relevant to the review and could have had a bearing on its outcome.
"It is now obvious that they were trying to deliberately mislead the committee," Huppert told The Intercept. "They very clearly did not give us all the information that we needed."

I mentioned some reservations about REST support implemenation in the thread for Ext 3.0 RC2, many of which I see are fixed in 3.0.3. For example, the DataReader.update() no longer expects that server returns all or least some data with representation of the modified record. That's good. However, the DataReader.realize() is still broken. It still assumes that after creating the Record on the client, populating it with data, and sending this data to server, the server will send all this data back. But why server would do it? There is completely no point, it's only waste of bandwidth to send to the client the data that client already have. In some cases server can add/modify some of this data, then ok; but in many cases server won't. BUT, the realize method foolishly drops ALL local data and overrides it with data returned from server, see line 116 in DataReader:
This approach makes no sense at all. The same bug was already fixed in update method, why it is not fixed in realize method?Code:rs.data = data;
The only real difference is that in case of CREATE, in many cases the ID is generated by server, not by a client. So the realize method can expect the ID to be returned by the server in some cases. However, this ID doesn't have to be returned in response body. In RESTful services, it may be part of URL returned in Location header. So it's important to provide the extension point (per-class, i.e. to set it statically for all Ext.data.DataReader instances, and per-instance) for retrieving generated ID.
To sum it up, two things should be done:
1. Don't expect that server would return ANY data; in any case, don't throw away data already available on the client, instead override only those really returned by the server
2. Provide easy to use extension points for retrieving generated ID from server response.

When a deadly landslide in Guatemala on May 30, 2010, killed nearly 100 people and forced the evacuation of 75,000, Dalia Kirschbaum of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center carefully documented it. And when more than 300 other rain-triggered landslides pulled the Earth out from beneath towns and villages in China, Uganda, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and other countries in 2010, she and her teammates combed through newspapers, online news and journals, and global disaster databases and catalogued as many details as they could find about each one.
The work can be tedious and time-consuming, Kirschbaum admits, but it's imporant. Sudden, rain-induced landslides kill thousands each year, and no one organization has consistently catalogued them to evaluate historical trends. Three years ago, she set out to change that by creating a searchable inventory of landslides specifically triggered by rain.
NASA's Earth Science News Team spoke with Kirschbaum about how this tool may help scientists better understand when and where landslides are most likely to occur.
What is a landslide?
Landslides occur when an environmental trigger like an extreme rain event, often a severe storm or hurricane, and gravity's downward pull sets soil and rock in motion. Conditions beneath the surface are often unstable already, so the heavy rains act as the last straw that causes mud, rocks, or debris—or all combined—to move rapidly down mountains and hillsides. Unfortunately, people and property are often swept up in these unexpected mass movements. Landslides can also be caused by earthquakes, surface freezing and thawing, ice melt, the collapse of groundwater reservoirs, volcanic eruptions, and erosion at the base of a slope from the flow of river or ocean water. But torrential rains most commonly activate landslides. Our NASA inventory only tracks landslides brought on by rain.
What prompted you to develop the NASA landslide inventory?
The project was initially meant to evaluate a procedure for forecasting landslide hazards globally. Studying landslide hazards over large areas is a thorny, complicated task because data collection is not always accurate and complete from one country to another. Improving our record-keeping is a first step in determining how to move forward with landslide hazard and risk assessments.
As a byproduct, we knew the catalog would provide information on the timing, location, and impacts of the landslides, which is valuable for exploring the socio-economic effects of these disasters. The International Disaster Database, the largest of its kind, often does not record smaller landslide events or detail their human or property toll.
Each one of our landslide entries contains information on the date of the event; details about the location; the latitude and longitude; an indication of the size of the event; the trigger; economic or social damages; and the number of fatalities.
How is a landslide inventory useful or important?
As the catalog of events grows, we'll be able to extract more and more information about which countries have the highest number of landslide reports, highest number of fatalities, etc. We can also break down events by region, season, and latitude, which helps us identify some large-scale patterns.
Though the database is limited by occasional reporting biases and incomplete data, the catalog indicates that the highest reported number of rainfall-triggered landslides and fatal landslides occurs in South and Southeastern Asia.
We also believe that in the longer term, the catalog will enable us to identify patterns in the global and regional frequency of landslides with respect to El Nino and related climate effects.
Have you used satellite observations for the inventory?
No. In a few instances we've been able to obtain satellite images over an area where a landslide is clearly visible. However, landslides typically occur over small areas. Satellites cannot generally "see" such fine ground details, or they do not pass over the affected area with the frequency necessary to capture when the landslide occurred.
We hope to use satellite imagery, for example from NASA's Earth Observing 1 (EO-1) satellite, to evaluate the location and area of some larger landslides. This remains a work in progress. [A list of EO-1 images of landslides publsihed on the Earth Observatory appears at the end of the article.)
So, if satellites can't consistently help you track landslides, how do you analyze each landslide event?
We have searched online literature—sources such as news reports, online journals and newspapers, and disaster databases—for the years 2003 and from 2007 to the present. The landslide inventory is only as good as the availability and accuracy of the reports and sources used to develop it. The work can be tedious and time-consuming, so we've enlisted the help of several excellent graduate students to keep the inventory updated over the past three years.
Our database tries to capture as many rainfall-triggered landslides as possible, but this is often difficult due to limitations in reporting of landslide hazards. The accuracy and completeness of details surrounding an event—especially when many landslides are triggered from a very large rainfall event over a broad area—can be less than informative so we are continually trying to improve the cataloguing effort. At the end of this year, we'll have a five-year record of events, which will provide us more information to identify global trends.
Is the inventory only available to scientists?
Our compilation methods were published in a scientific journal last year, and the actual inventory is now openly available to anyone on the Web. We'll be posting the inventory from January through June 2010 shortly.

Dairy farmers were allocated $350 million in extra assistance recently (as if the billions we artificially funnel to them every year are not enough) because of plummeting prices. The assistance will come mostly in the form of cash, although the federal government will also buy more dairy products for nutrition programs, and at increased prices. (Not to be outdone, hog farmers are asking for the same.) An article from Wednesday's edition of the Wall Street Journal Online has the details.
In a rare fit of candor, one dairy farmer group admits that the emergency money, and the decades-old programs, are not enough:
The National Family Farm Coalition, a Washington-based farm-advocacy group, is asking for an overhaul of the milk-pricing system, which is based on a complex Depression-era regime administered by the federal government.
So far I'm with them, but then they lose me with this:
The coalition supports an idea that would keep prices stable by creating an oversight entity to manage the amount of milk a farmer can produce.
"While we appreciate this money, it won't be enough though to keep farms from going broke," the coalition said in a statement.
Ah, milk quotas. Good idea. And we can learn from the Europeans about how to pull that trick off.
Seriously? We need a new "oversight entity" to actually "manage the amount of milk a farmer can produce"? Talk about fatal conceit. That's fatal insanity to think that a centralized agency can manage milk production on a farm-level basis.

Sharon's Bathroom Before & After
A few weeks ago, we published a good question about which paint color would suit the tile in Sharon's bathroom. Over 50 comments followed, Sharon got to work and now she has done one of our favorite things - she sent in a fantastic before and after…
Sharon writes:
Thank you so much for featuring my ugly bathroom on Apartment Therapy a few weeks ago. With the help of fellow Apartment Therapy readers, I was able to get some great ideas on how to revive my bathroom. Not only does it look better, but I now love being in there! I find the gray and white very soothing. Because I live in a rental, I was not able to change light fixtures, mirror, tiles etc, but thanks to the Apartment Therapy readers I feel like I've made the most of this bathroom. This was my very first home renovations/decorating project and it was so much fun!
Thanks, Sharon!

Hertha Ball lived the American dream to the end
Hertha B. Ball lived a storybook life, being rescued from Nazi Germany by a famous Western New York songwriter, then moving to Clarence, where she and her husband, Arthur, prospered as cattle breeders.
Long after his death, Mrs. Ball continued to manage the couple's farming and real estate interests until she was well into her 90s.
And when she turned 100, in September 2009, she was the guest of honor at a birthday party at Westwood Country Club in Amherst, the same location where she used to deliver eggs to the back door in the 1940s.
Mrs. Ball, the former Hertha Baron, died Sunday in the same Clarence farmhouse bedroom where her husband died 50 years earlier.
She was 103.
"My mother made the most out of every century she lived in," quipped her daughter, Tina J. Ball.
Mrs. Ball's emigration to America dates back to 1939, when she and her husband had been trying to flee the Nazi Germany war machine for Australia. Springville songwriter Jack Yellen, best known for writing the lyrics to "Happy Days Are Here Again," wrote something more important for the Balls – a letter to a Jewish agency in Berlin seeking a farmhand for his Springville farm. That's how the Balls relocated to Western New York.
Before the couple prospered as cattle breeders, becoming among the largest landowners in Clarence, Mrs. Ball delivered eggs and drove cows to the stockyards. She also worked for a time in a hat factory, decorating hats for a penny apiece.
"Here's a woman who came here with nothing," Tina Ball said just before her mother turned 100. "My father didn't even speak English. It's the American dream. She lived it."
A voracious reader and prolific writer who still did the New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle at age 100, Mrs. Ball earned a reputation as a classy, polite woman who loved words and knew how to smile.
"You can do anything with a smiling face," she said, at age 100. "That makes everybody happy. You should appreciate every day. It's a special gift, a present."
Mrs. Ball was a lifetime emeritus member of the Westwood Country Club and a longtime member of the Brandeis Women's Committee, Albright-Knox Art Gallery and Temple Beth Zion.
She also volunteered with the Buffalo Council on World Affairs, parlaying her extensive travels and sophisticated European elegance to introduce visitors to Buffalo.
She served on the Mothers' Council at the Park School of Buffalo, where she was honored on her 100th birthday. The Hertha Ball Creative Writing Fund was established there in her honor, as were a creative-writing award and a writer-in-residence program. Last year, the Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies honored her as a foundation centenarian.
While Mrs. Ball moved to New York City in 2003 to spend half the year with her daughter and only granddaughter, Joanna, she maintained her Clarence residence, Hertina Farms, and lived there with her family during the spring and summer months.
Her husband, a prominent Clarence farmer and Buffalo businessman, died in 1963.
Mrs. Ball's funeral will be at 11 a.m. Wednesday in Temple Beth Zion, 805 Delaware Ave.
Mourners no doubt will be reminded of her daughter's words 13½ years ago, at Mrs. Ball's 90th birthday party.
"Don't throw out the candles," Tina Ball said. "We'll be back in 10 years."
She was right.

A tree that falls in a lonely forest may not make a sound, but what about the tree that falls on your neighbor's house?
The sound it makes? Cha-ching.
Texas Forest Service is encouraging homeowners and landowners to remove fire- and drought-killed trees that are within falling distance of neighboring homes, roads and pathways. Failure to do so, agency officials say, could make you liable for damages.
"Be aware that your tree could fall onto someone else's property," Texas Forest Service Central Texas Operations Department Head Jim Rooni said. "The rules vary from place to place, but generally the owner of the tree is responsible. Bottom line: You could be liable."
Rooni said foresters received an influx of calls following the deadly wildfire that ripped through Bastrop last September, destroying roughly 1.5 million trees. But the liability issue isn't limited to trees killed by fire, he said.
Texas is emerging from one of the most devastating droughts and one of the most unprecedented wildfire seasons in state history. Though there is no official count for the total number of trees killed by wildfire, foresters and analysts have estimated that as many as 500 million trees in rural forested areas and another 5.6 million trees in populated urban areas were killed as a result of the 2011 drought.
The sheer volume of dead trees - especially those standing in populated areas - poses a significant hazard, Rooni said.
"Standing, dead trees are dangerous and unpredictable," Rooni said. "If they fall, they can cause serious damage - and even death."
If your tree still has yet to sprout green leaves, forestry experts say it's most likely dead. If you're not sure, read the Texas Forest Service tree assessment guide, check out the TFS facebook photo album to see examples of trees in varying states, or contact a certified arborist.
If you have questions regarding liability on public land or rights of way, contact your local county sheriff's department or county commissioner's office.
For questions regarding liability issues on private property, seek counsel from a reputable legal source.

The Hyde Amendment and Coverage for Abortion Services
This policy insight examines the Hyde Amendment, an annually approved law that bans the use of federal funds to pay for abortions unless the pregnancy is a result of rape, incest, or endangerment of the life of a woman. The Hyde Amendment has become the focus of debate in the 2016 presidential election. Hillary Clinton is the first presidential candidate to openly support lifting the Hyde bans on federal funding for abortion, while Donald Trump recently endorsed the codification of the law and established a Pro-life coalition. This perspective details the federal programs that are affected by the Hyde Amendment, provides estimates on the share of women insured by Medicaid affected by the law, the impact on their access to abortion services, and the potential effect if the law were to be repealed or codified.Perspective Read More

How ACA Marketplace Premiums Measure Up to Expectations
Premium increases in the health insurance marketplaces created under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will likely be higher in 2017 than in recent years; however, the actual average benchmark premium in the ACA marketplaces in 2016 is below what the Congressional Budget Office projected for 2016 before the health law was passed. How actual marketplace premiums compare to what CBO expected in doing those budget projections is an important factor in determining whether the ACA continues to be on track to reducing the deficit.Perspective Read More
What to Look for in 2017 ACA Marketplace Premium Changes

How Have Insurers Fared Under the Affordable Care Act?
This analysis tracks the financial performance of insurers in the individual market by evaluating trends in the medical loss ratio (MLR) in the pre-ACA landscape from 2010 to 2013 and estimates the MLR for the first full year of Affordable Care Act implementation in 2014. Findings suggest that although performance varied among insurers, insurers overall had roughly comparable financial performance in 2014 as in recent prior years.Perspective Read More
How Much (More) Will Seniors Pay for a Doc Fix?
In this Policy Insight, the Foundation's Cristina Boccuti and Tricia Neuman examine how Congress' effort to permanently stave off scheduled cuts in Medicare's physician payments could affect what Medicare beneficiaries pay for their care — both in premiums and in other potential changes — to offset the cost of the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) "doc fix."Perspective Read More
Insurance Markets in a Post-King World
This perspective addresses how insurance markets might respond if the US Supreme Court sides with the plaintiffs in the King v. Burwell case.

And you wonder why Laker fans are fast growing to love Ron Artest.
The newest Laker is the twitter king of the NBA, has given out his personal email address and phone number, hooked up with fans to head out to dinner, made up with John Green (the guy who threw beer on him in Detroit), chose his new number in tribute to Michael Jackson and hung out in Hong Kong with artist Shin Shin.
And now, he's singing Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On." Have your lighters ready to go, music fans!
Really, this version is the only thing that could have made that movie tolerable. That and Jack and Rose actually using pronouns when speaking to each other.
Somehow, I wouldn't be shocked before the first Lakers game, when the team is jumping around in a circle, if Ron Artest was in the middle of that circle firing the team up. Nor would I be shocked if he broke out some "My Heart Will Go On." That would have the team pumped up like nothing else. Or maybe laughing too hard to play. One or the other.

I don't make new year's resolutions since I don't respect them anyway.
Hence, I even fail most projects I start, not by lack of motivation or incompetence from my part, but from external events. So why bother with it?
/* Lamentation mode - you can skip this part */
I resigned last Summer to enroll at university again for studying Japanese full time, financed by my savings and now this is starting to look grim... lots of bad luck has driven the financial costs way up beyond what I carefully planned and a serious shock with the death of a relative results into losing forgetting a big part of what I studied till now (like a black out) and me having to take pills now to lower my blood pressure & heart beat. It's incredible I still didn't get a nervous breakdown.
It's as if I've an aura of bad luck floating around me or that I'm cursed since 6 months now. Whenever I try to raise myself a little bit above the rest, not with bad intentions or whatever, I get knocked down badly. Your self-confidence takes a serious hit and you kinda get very pessimistic with this.
No more resolutions for me. I'm working my ass off to save what's still possible and see what happens afterwards. If I am not allowed to improve my situation I think I'll become more of a fatalist and do nothing anymore since there won't be much worth doing for me anyway.
All I want is a chance to do something important or something good and not be forgotten and buried like any other regular John Doe within a decade or three.

My resolution for this year is pretty simple:
I plan to finally get to work on driving and finding me a new job so I can buy stuff on my own again.
I also plan to finally be paid back by all the friends who I loaned money to.

House Bill 2555 was gutted by the Senate Judiciary Committee last week
We just finished the annual observance of Sunshine Week but the Kansas legislature is more than happy living in the shadows.
House Bill 2555 was gutted by the Senate Judiciary Committee last week. Instead of bringing the state in line with the other 49 states in the union, a few committee members stripped language from the bill that would have made affidavits in support of arrest and search warrants public documents after the warrants are served.
Kansas is the only state in the nation to keep these documents hidden without a court order. That forces people who have search warrants served at their home or business to spend months in court and spend thousands of dollars to find out why their property was entered against their will.
The other 49 states – and even Lyons and Chase counties in Kansas, who have opened the records via local court rule – all have no problems allowing the defendants, media and anyone else to see what evidence existed to produce such a warrant.
What do Kansas legislators have to fear in this bill?
The language contained plenty of protection for undercover officers, informants, investigative methods, sexual assault victims and other items that everyone agrees should be protected.
The vast majority of officers do their job correctly and would never cut corners or bend rules to get the bad guys under any circumstances. Because of that, they would have no problem with the records being opened after the suspect was arrested or search conducted.
But someone wants to keep the records closed and they convinced the Kansas Senate Judiciary Committee to gut the bill. The Judiciary Committee is composed of Chair Sen. Jeff King, Vice Chair Sen. Greg Smith, Ranking Minority Member Sen. David Haley, an MembersSen. Terry Bruce, Sen. Forrest Knox, Sen. Garrett Love, Sen. Julia Lynn, Sen. Carolyn McGinn, Sen. Mike Petersen, Sen. Pat Pettey, and Sen. Mary Pilcher-Cook.
Forrest Knox can be reached at 785-296-7678 or firstname.lastname@example.com. He is one of Butler County's senators and loves to hear from constituents about issues.
Our other senator is Ty Masterson. Masterson can be reached at 785-296-7388 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Call or email your state senator and tell them to do anything possible to get the language back in this bill to open these documents at the appropriate time.
Open government is better government.
Ability to hide public records is not the place for Kansas to stand alone.

Nikon 1 J1: The Fashionably Minimalist Traveler
Product: Nikon 1 J1
Price: $649.95 ($549.00 via Amazon)
Rating: Recommend*
The Nikon 1 J1 is a new design direction for Nikon, a mirrorless compact CX format sensor with a proprietary Nikon 1 lens mount, all in a minimalist form factor aimed at the enthusiast looking to step up from a budget point and shoot, but not yet ready to commit to a full DSLR model. From the pared down menu UI, the absence of a view finder, to the J1's marble smooth unadorned body, everything about the J1 communicates simplicity, joining an ever-growing subcategory of cameras which purport to offer the best of both worlds of a DSLR's performance with the convenience of a point and shoot. But is the J1 just a fashion statement or can it replace carrying around a full-size DSLR?
As an avid amateur travel and hiking photographer, I normally carry two cameras with me: 1) a larger Nikon D7000 DSLR with an assortment of lenses, and 2) a pocket-sized Canon S90. To use a fantasy fiction analogy, it's like carrying a two-handed bastard sword for serious business, and a dagger for close-proximity strikes (I think I've been watching too much Game of Thrones). In tight quarters or when time is of the essence, it's often easier to use a capable point and shoot model, while other times the optics capabilities and sensor quality of a DSLR seem a necessity. But it can become a pain to go between the two, back and forth like a bickering pair trying to win my attention and favor.
Thus, I've always been curious about switching over to a mirrorless model, compromising a little bit from both sides for the all-in-one convenience of a lightweight camera with lens swapping options. The last several months, I've made the Nikon 1 J1 my primary travel camera, taking it along on hikes up into the Santa Monica Mountains, around my neck while investigating the Central Coast of California, and even across the Atlantic to Italy. Along the way, I learned not only about the benefits of migrating to a mirrorless model, but also was reminded why I'll probably remain a two camera user.
Design/Hardware: the J1 is one of those designs which seem to tempt curiosity, the all glowing all-white body inviting strangers to ask "which camera is that?", questions about whether I liked it, and occasionally requests to hold it. That never happened with either the D7000 or the S90 except amongst camera nerds!
It's this mass appeal design which makes the J1 an undeniable fashion statement around the neck; it's cute and it knows it. But the design is also a little quirky to use because of its very slick front face. I never dropped the camera, even while hiking one handed up some steep terrain (thank goodness, as I wouldn't want to return the review unit wrecked). But this could have been because I was holding the J1 as careful as a mother with a baby while hiking, since the body lacks any textural grip. That being said, the camera isn't being marketed as an outdoor adventure camera, and in normal snapshot use in the likes of wandering the relaxed streets of Santa Barbara or roaming the fashionable streets of Milan, the J1's ergonomics worked out fine even one-handed.
Modes/UI: Where I feel a little less forgiving is the J1's simplified controls, both physically and on its on-screen menu. I applaud Nikon's aim to clean up and simplify the user experience, eliminating many of the mystery buttons dotting the back and top of similar mid-range models. But in the process of throwing out the bathwater, the proverbial baby seems to have gone missing. Switching out of Auto and into programmed auto, shutter-priority, aperture-priority and manual requires jogging thru the options menu instead of a quick turn of the dial, ironically a more complicated process rather than the standard mode dial solution.
Most J1 users are likely to keep the camera in its still image Auto mode (RAW is nice, but we'd expect highest quality JPEGs will suffice for 95% of J1 owners), but anyone who wants to tweak settings will find themselves a bit frustrated having to navigate a screen menu rather than use a no-look mechanical dial. The mode dial also offers users three additional shooting modes: Smart Photo Selector, HD Video, and Motion Snapshot.
The most interesting of the three for me was the HD Video...not because it could capture video in an assortment of resolutions (1080/30p, 1080/60i and 720/60p with H.264 compression), but specifically for it's gimmicky-fun super slow motion mode. Setting up shots can be difficult, as shown in the blunder below, but the results can be captivating. Just be sure to have your scene brightly lit if you want to enjoy those 400 fps at 640 x 240 (the 1,200 fps at 320 x 120-pixel resolution is too small to really matter). You have the option to mess around the the shutter speed, aperture and ISO sensitivity for your slow motion masterpiece.
Motion Snapshot mode allows users to capture a second of movie footage and a still image each time the shutter is pressed; the video shown in slow motion over the course of 2.5 seconds, ending with the still image, accompanied with optional music. To play back your Motion Snapshot on a computer, you have to download the files to your computer and use the included Short Movie Creator software to convert...a hassle for modest payoff.
The third, Smart Photo Selector, offers an actual useful feature. Press the shutter in this mode and the J1 captures up to five photos in one burst, with the option to manually chose the best of the bunch or have the camera determine the photo to keep based on composition, focus, blur, face detection, smile and blink detection. If you're prone to inconsistent quality photos and don't need to take a large batch in a short time, this could be an ideal mode to shoot in, especially snapshots/portraits of groups of friends (all without having to say, "Okay, just ONE more shot!").
Performance: While day time photos in the sun are remarkably clear with a responsive autofocus, the J1 can get a little noisy once the sun bids you farewell. Still, during the day, even in mixed lighting conditions, the J1 produced impressive images considering the inherent limitations of a CX sensor almost half the size of the Micro Four Thirds competition. I used the camera in many situations where stabilizing the camera was difficult, but blurry photos were the exception, not the rule. And the camera was able to pull acceptable detail (albeit with noise) while shooting at night, but the results were on par with my Canon S90 point and shoot rather than a step up (which isn't bad at all, just not an improvement despite the better glass).
What's hard to measure, but easy to report, is how fun the Nikon 1 J1 turned out to be while traveling to locales where my girlfriend and I would usually lug our DSLRs. The J1 is a camera with compromises, and the J1 wouldn't be my first option to replace my banged up S90, but somehow I kept reaching for it any time I knew it wasn't absolutely necessary to bring the arsenal of macro and ultra-wide lenses to arm the D7000. The 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens proved to be "good enough" for the majority of shots, though I would have much preferred the $250 10mm f/2.8 "pancake" lens for a smaller form factor and the joys of shooting a faster prime (a 10-100mm f/4.5-5.6 and 30-110mm f/3.8-5.6 are the two other lens options).
Instead, the J1 is sort of your excuse to just forget about the details and enjoy the moment with a snapshot mentality...BUT with the option to get a little more involved if need be and if time permits. I'm hoping the next updated model will bring back a few of the mechanical controls, add some grip to the front, increase the sensor size, all for a lower price (not unreasonable considering the competition).
At original list price, the Nikon 1 J1 is difficult to recommend over comparable mirror less models from the likes of Sony and Olympus or Canon's super-dooper point and shoot, the S100. But with online prices for the J1 dipping down near $200 discounts, the camera's pros begin to outweigh its cons. Once the Nikon 1 J1 prices drop further on discount as new models are released, it will be an easier model to recommend as a first or secondary camera.
Pros: Surprisingly good outdoor photos despite CX sensor; body design wins a lot of curious inquiry; fast autofocus; portable size and weight makes it easy to travel with all day; very good 3" screen.
Cons: Simplified controls are too simplified, burying certain features and controls into a rabbit's hole of submenus; body can be slippery to hold; missing an electronic view finder; battery life is shorter than we'd like (carrying an extra battery is advisable)

CRESTVIEW � Christmas came early for the Crestview boys basketball team on Thursday. Yes, the Bulldogs played their last game for a week and school was getting out for the Christmas break on Friday. But a team that has struggled at times in the first three weeks of the season needed more than a break in the game schedule or days off from school.
CRESTVIEW � Christmas came early for the Crestview boys basketball team on Thursday.
Yes, the Bulldogs played their last game for a week and school was getting out for the Christmas break on Friday.
But a team that has struggled at times in the first three weeks of the season needed more than a break in the game schedule or days off from school.
Crestview needed a win and against Bay and that�s just what the Bulldogs got as they took down the Tornadoes 54-42.
�It was a nice win before the break,� Crestview coach Ken Meisner said. �That�s one of the comments we made before we stepped on the floor tonight was this was our final tune up before the second half of the season.
�We wanted to come to be respectable and competitive and the kids did that.�
The first half was close as both teams used a variation of a full-court zone press defense in an attempt to score points in transition.
Bay scored first on a Rayshawn Patterson basket.
Ronnie Baylark answered for Crestview by scoring the next five points on his way to a game-high 22 point effort.
A Jerry Aaron basket put the Bulldogs up 7-2 before back-to-back 3-pointers by Patterson gave Bay an 8-7 lead.
Markeis Goodman added another basket for the Tornadoes with 2:56 left in the opening period to give Bay its largest lead of the night at 10-7.
The first quarter ended with Crestview going on a 7-3 run to take a 14-13 lead after one quarter of play. Fittingly, Patterson hit a 3-point basket to end Bay�s scoring in the first quarter and Baylark closed things out for Crestview (3-7) with a 3-pointer of his own.
Patterson had 11 points in the first quarter, but the Bulldog defense stiffened and held him to just for more points the rest of the way.
Baylark, who scored eight points in the first quarter, was just getting going for the Bulldogs as the Crestview defense started shutting down Patterson.
Baylark scored five more points in the second quarter as the Bulldogs led 23-21 at the half.
The third quarter was all Crestview as the Bulldogs outscored Bay 23-6 to take control of the game.
Jonathon Buckelew led the way for Crestview scoring seven of his 11 points in the third period. Baylark and Aaron also came up big in the third quarter with Baylark scoring six points and Aaron four ponts.
�In the second half we just came out and turned it up,� Baylark said. �We wanted this one. We�ve been losing lately and the team wanted it and we said we are just going to come out here and play hard.
We�ve got a tournament coming up (the Freeport Christmas tournament on Dec. 27) and we�ve got to come out and execute our hardest so we can get a little streak where we can win some games and get in good position for district.�
Crestview led 46-27 after the third quarter.
A basket by Aaron with 4:41 left in the fourth quarter gave the Bulldogs their biggest lead of the night at 52-29 as Crestview coasted to the win.
Meisner said it was little things that made the difference in the second half.
�It was very calm at half time, actually,� he said. �We talked about the cross break a little and the posts (players) rotating to the middle to the second half, which was a big deal because we had a secondary pass and we had a hard time in the first half.
�And then we had shots fall. And when you have shots fall confidence builds and confidence goes a long ways in the third quarter.�
Aaron joined Baylark and Buckelew in double figures for the Bulldogs scoring 14 points.

There are two problems with your OEM air induction system that cause restriction and reduce airflow. First, airflow is restricted by the size of the filter in the factory airbox. Even a replacement performance air filter can only flow so much when its size is limited. Second, the air path from the filter to the throttle body can be restricted by the OEM intake tube. Together, these two areas of restriction combine to reduce airflow and rob horsepower from your engine.
Luckily, these problems are easily solved with a K&N 63 Series Aircharger Intake Kit. K&N starts by replacing the restrictive airbox and small air filter with the largest size conical shaped high flow K&N air filter that will fit in the engine compartment. The great increase in filter area over stock vastly improves airflow and the capacity to capture and hold dirt. Then K&N replaces the OEM intake tube with a precision designed, rotationally molded tube made from interlaced high density Polyethylene. This tube eliminates air path restrictions to the engine and reduces air intake temperature when compared to similar metal tubes. Intake air temperature is further reduced by a heat shield that isolates the filter from the engine compartment. The reduction in air intake temperatures results in a cooler, denser air intake charge and even more horsepower. All components are mounted and connected with high quality materials such as steel, aluminum, silicon or reinforced nylon, to ensure long life.
K&N uses a dynamometer to design its air intake kits to make the most horsepower possible. But their power figures aren't based on just one vehicle, but rather an average of runs by a number of vehicles. This means repeatable numbers and horsepower claims you can count on.
Every 63 Series Aircharger Intake Kit comes complete with everything necessary for installation, including comprehensive installation instructions. The K&N filter can go up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is required. And the K&N air filter is guaranteed for one million miles.
K&N® is the inventor and leading innovator of reusable cotton gauze filter technology for automotive applications. The first K&N filter was conceived for racing over 40 years ago and a performance enthusiast mindset continues today throughout all levels of the company. K&N is the sales and brand leader for performance filters, including an extensive line of factory replacement filters and performance air intake kits. The company actively promotes the environmental, economical and performance advantages of long-life reusable cotton gauze filters.

Well, most of it. The stuff with the splats and the squishy noises yes, but eventually it turns into weeks before when he's on a train returning home after the funeral. You wouldn't believe how many times I've gone over that scene when I'm editing it.

Additionally, there are Backstage Staff rooms for Higu Kai Chap 06~09 which can be accessed by clicking on the logo at the end of Ryukishi's letters (usually on the な although this is different for 08 & 09, iirc). You can only access these for the CD for that chapter. So the Minagoroshi CD can give you access to the Minagoroshi backstage staff room, and the Matsuribayashi CD can only give you access to Matsuribayashi's backstage staff room. These are extremely silly straying far off topic but you get commentary not only from Ryukishi, but from the other members in the 07th Expansion circle such as bt or Dai.

I have a quick question. I hope I can be clear on this.
I recently started watching the 2nd season. Should've I have watched the first series or does the 2nd series pretty much sum up what wasn't explained in the first season?
I'm enjoying it. And it's creepy. I had always wondered what the whole deal with knives and "killer lolis" was all about.

Really, Higurashi is a show that slowly unveil it's secrets, and by now most of them have been revealed and they are exposed under the spotlight. If you value Higurashi's mistery element at all restrain yourself from watching any more second season episodes. What's more, leave the show for a whole year and hope that by then you have forgotten most of what you've seen.

No, it is surely Mion the first time in the angel mort.
First, Shion isn't the kind of girl being timid because of her outfit, even if she meets Keiichi for the first time (as she shouldn't be embarassed anyway)
The second clue is probably how "Shion" looked at Keiichi when he left the angel mort for the first time, which was similar to how Mion looked at Keiichi later on.
Granted, the anime messed up this part, as keiichi claimed "so, the first time was really shion, and the shion who gave me the bento is Mion..." (Especially Shion wasn't supposed to be exposed just after the "biker incident". The "shion who was fierce" was indeed Mion)
In fact, Shion has really shown herself after the doll incident (as result of her discussion with mion), and invited him in a dessert fiesta while she was supposed to work.
In the manga, it is much more clear that Shion met keiichi for the first time only after the "Angel mort defense" with the lecherous nerds.

She only said that she had to help her uncle. She didn't say which one
Refer to Who are Mion's uncles and what do they do? TIPS

There are also times the twins must switch even if the Sonozaki issues are already done (especially shown in episode 10, with Kimiyoshi).
I guess it is more like Shion wants to have a break with the Angel Mort or she has other things to do. Mion doesn't actually have a constant part-job as seen in both seasons, and this TIPS.
So seeing her helping Shion isn't something surprising. (and that certainly explains "Shion's uneasiness")

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/22/2014 -- Seegrid, makers of automated guided vehicles (AGVs), was featured in Warehousing Logistics International. The article reported that Honeywell, located in Pleasant Prairie, WI, recently installed Seegrid automated guided vehicles (AGVs)—GP8 pallet trucks. Honeywell is using the Seegrid AGVs to transport raw materials such as copper coils, cables, and wire spools to manufacturing and deliver the finished goods to the warehouse.
Michael Crichlow, Cable and Custom Electronics Logistics Manager, at the Pleasant Prairie Honeywell location explained, "We are using the Seegrid GP8s to enhance the capabilities of my professional material handling staff by providing them another set of forks to complete the cross-plant moves. The AGVs will allow me to use my material handlers for the more precise placements and technical moves throughout the manufacturing floor and distribution center. This is accomplished by eliminating empty fork time as the material handlers move from one task to the next."
Crichlow also noted that the Seegrid AGVs offered more flexibility versus traditional AGVs, which require lasers, wires, tapes, or magnets. "I chose this technology because of the flexibility of being able to reprogram the vehicles quickly as we frequently change layouts. The "permanency" of the laser reflectors, magnets, and strips just wouldn't be practical in our constantly improving work space."
Seegrid AGVs enable Honeywell to eliminate "empty fork time"—traveling cross-facility to make a delivery with no return load. "Three dynamic results are expected with the Seegrid AGVs at the Honeywell facility including, an increase in cases picked per labor hour metric, increased support level for production operations, and improved material flow and 5S adherence," remarked Crichlow.
Warehousing and Logistics International bi-monthly magazine, is the official digital publication for the International Federation of Warehousing Logistics Associations (IFWLA).
