Samsung Galaxy S5 goes on sale in Korea
A Korean retailer has put the Samsung Galaxy S5 on sale and it appears that Samsung didn't know anything about it.
Companies aren't supposed tobe offering the new flagship until April 11th, as this is the global launch date. However, South Korean carriers SK Telecom, KT Corp and LG Uplus Corp have decided on their own release date.
The group have started selling it because SK believes that upcoming sanctions would have prevented it selling the phone in April and May. This means, instead of falling behind the pack with sales, it has jumped the gun.
Samsung's obviously not happy that some of its Korean retailers have taken it upon themselves to beat the global launch date. However, it maintains that none of this will have an affect on when the rest of the world will get its hands on it, suggesting that unless you are in Korea, you will have to sit back and wait for April 11th.

Aoyama Thelma, Japan's Rising R&B/Pop Star
Born on October 27, 1987 in Nara, Japan, the soon-to-be 22-year-old R&B/pop singer hit it big on the Japanese pop charts in 2008 by being featured on Japanese rapper SoulJa's single, Koko ni Iru yo / SoulJa feat. Aoyama Thelma.
Aoyama surpassed it with an even bigger hit in 2008, her answer song featuring SoulJa in 2008, Soba ni Iru ne / Aoyama Thelma feat. SoulJa.
Below are a couple of music videos which feature Aoyama Thelma singing in English and English & Japanese, respectively, the first one is a cover by Japanese DJ MAKIDAI of the 1993 Mariah Carey tune "Dreamlover," the second one is a house track by Japanese DJ MAKAI, "Garden of Love."

A Trio of Songs by Female R&B/Hip-Hop Artists in Japan
Born November 2, 1981 in Los Angeles, California, USA but having spent much if not most of her life in Japan, Ai Carina Uemura (愛カリーナ植村) aka AI is a Japanese American singer/songwriter. Three quarters Japanese and one quarter Italian, AI is often known as the "Queen of Hip-Hop Soul in Japan," though she has branched out from that musical genre since her 2004 Japanese hit single, "After the rain."
A superb singer and dancer, AI once sang in a choir at a concert by Mary J. Blige, the "Queen of Hip-Hop Soul," when she was only 17 and has danced in a Janet Jackson music video, "Go Deep" (1998).
For more information on AI, check out her unofficial Facebook page (it's in English) and google her full real name, Ai Carina Uemura.
After the rain / AI
Prominent female DJs are a rarity anywhere, but Japan has produced a number of them, such as DJ MAYUMI, DJ SILVA, and DJ KAORI. DJ KAORI honed her skills in New York City, deejaying private parties for Diddy, basketball superstar Michael Jordan, heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, and other celebrities.
Google DJ MAYUMI, DJ SILVA, and DJ KAORI for more information.
DJ MAYUMI produced a 2007 music video, "DIAMONDS," with herself at the helm, and featuring the vocal talents of JAMOSA, LUNA, [DJ] SILVA and ia.
I could find official, bilingual (Japanese and English) MySpace pages for DJ MAYUMI, JAMOSA, LUNA and DJ SILVA, but none for ia.
They are all full Japanese as far as I know except JAMOSA, who is half Japanese and half aboriginal Taiwanese - hence the name, JAMOSA ("JAMOSA" = "JA[PAN]" + "[FOR]MOSA" {derived from Portuguese, Formosa is the old name for Taiwan}).
In her English language song "REMINISCING," which can be heard on her MySpace page, JAMOSA explores and remembers her Austronesian Taiwanese and Japanese roots.
DIAMONDS / DJ MAYUMI featuring JAMOSA, LUNA, SILVA & ia
Lastly, there is a little known Japanese R&B/club/J-pop singer named Lisa Yamaguchi ( 山口リサ, Yamaguchi Risa).
But check out who Lisa Yamaguchi's MySpace Friends are: Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, Keyshia Cole, Kylie Minogue and Amerie (who is a US counterpart to Japan's Crystal Kay: both are half Korean and half African American), to name just a few.
Quite an impressive list of celebrity friends for a relatively obscure musical artist...
Watch Lisa Yamaguchi's music video, "Secret Drive."

Looking for a good quality gun
Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a sub-MOA gun in 30-06 or .308. I got a $1000 dollar budget, but anything less is definitely appreciated. (I still have to buy a scope, right?)
I want a gun limited by my skill, not the other way around. Synthetic, wood, laminate; stainless, carbon steel; I don't care. I'm still in school, saving up for my first non .22. I don't care if I have to save up for years. I just want a gun that will last till its my time to walk through the pearly gates.
Crazy Accurate
30-06 or .308
Will last for an eternity
Help is greatly appreciated,
Ken B.

There aren't many guns that will be with you for you whole life. You'll decide you want something else in a few years (or less).
Find something you want to shoot or hunt with that fits you well, is light enough or heavy enough to meet your needs and is accurate enough for your goals.
I've not owned more than one heavy-barreled centerfire, which was too heavy to carry around, yet get great groups out of my sporter-weight barrels.
I'm very pleased with both my Tikka rifles, one a .223 Rem and the other, a .243 Win. You could do much worse for a rifle to enjoy for both accuracy and ease of use offhand and field shooting.
Other rifles that would meet your needs include Remington 700s in various forms that would meet your needs. I enjoy two of them, one a Stainless .270 Win.
Savage rifles are enjoyed for their accuracy and ability to more easily replace barrels. I used to own one when in school, but found that I liked Remington 700s better.
Ruger Americans are also pretty good rifles for the money. Many people like the Ruger Mod 77 MKII.
The only rifles to stay away from are the cheapest offerings from several firms. You have enough money to get something pretty nice.
You'll get many recommendations here, but without knowing just how the rifles would be used mostly, it's impossible to give a really good answer. My first centerfire was a .30-06, which was intended for deer, but ended up shooting more varmints than deer.

Both the 308 and 06 are capable of moa performance. I own or have owened ruger 77, browning a-bolt, remengton 700 bdl/adl. All shoot very well. I have friends who sware by savage. I would start by price matching (walmart has great prices) but I seldom by there as most mom and pop shops will get real close to there price. Pick the gun that feels the best to YOU and get the very best scope and rings you can. If you do not reload, try several different brands of ammo with the same weight of bullet to find the brand your rifle likes best. Happy shooting.

You want to hunt with it or punch paper. For a hunting rifle I'd buy one of the new production Winchester 70's.

Another vote for the new Winchester model 70, topped with a 3-9X40 Leupold in either 308 or 30-06.

Thanks everyone. I'm looking into the Model 70's, cause I always like them, but wasn't sure about the opinion on them.
Hooligan1, Did you hear about the new NY AWB?? That alone would make me leave, except for the fact that I have about 100 relatives within 50 square miles of my house.
Also, has anyone ever heard of snipercentral.com? I looked them up, and they sell a howa 1500 .308 with a tactical stock, bedded; a Harris bipod, and a Brownnells scope. Looks like a good deal, cause I know howa makes some pretty accurate, well built guns. Any experience??

Well then we're happy your staying.
If I had a 1000.00 rifle budget Id hunt for a Savage 10, or 11, or 116, "Long range Hunter",
but only if its accuracy 1st looks second. About a month ago I was looking at Armslist In St. Louis Mo. and found a "Like New" Remington 700 Police, in the .308, and from several reviews these are really accurate, the seller wanted $900.00, FTF.
So If you hunt hard theres no reason you can't find the suitable rifle your looking for under that grand.
The Vanguard series VS2 are very accurate and come in under a grand, as do the Howa 1500's
My first pick would be something in a Savage, because they are most accurate.
Thanks for coming!

Another vote here for the Weatherby Vanguard S2. I have one in .308 and it is very accurate with ammo it likes. The build quality is very high and the action is very smooth. It feels far more substantial and better finished than some other inexpensive rifles such as the Ruger American, Marlin X7, etc. It is a tad heavy (around 7.5 lbs) and it has a two stage trigger, which is not to everyone's liking. If you are partial to two stage triggers, the one on the S2 takes up around 1/8 inch then breaks clean at a touch under three pounds. Forget the factory MSRP; you can pick one up around $450.
As others have noted, you should also look at the Savage 11/111, Tikka T3 and FN produced 'Winchester' Model 70s.
I would avoid Remington 700s produced since Freedom Group bought them. Some people have had great luck with new 700s, but many are lemons and have to go back to the factory. Look for a good condition used one - with your budget you could buy a new barrel.
There are many rifles that will fit the bill for you and leave you plenty of money for optics and upgrades. Handle a few - or better yet shoot them if you can - and see which one fits you best.

CRANBERRY TWP — Verizon Wireless today announced to employees that it will close the customer contact centers in Cranberry and Warrendale effective May 2014.
About 1,000 jobs will be lost.
Three other centers across the United States also will be closed.
These jobs will be relocated to other centers with vacant space.
About 1,000 customer service employees in Cranberry and Warrendale will be encouraged to apply for other local positions or to relocate to another of the company's 26 customer contact centers with a relocation assistance package of $10,000 in after-tax dollars, according to a company news release.
Employees who want to visit another contact center will be offered $500 to defray travel costs.
Eligible employees unable to relocate or who do not secure other positions with the company will be offered separation packages and outplacement help.
In Cranberry, about 600 customer service positions in the contact center will relocate to one of the customer contact centers, including one in Hilliard, Ohio, facility. About 40 noncustomer facing employees will relocate to the remaining Warrendale facility, the release states.
In Warrendale, about 200 telesales employees will be offered the opportunity to transfer to the company's other telesales locations in Tampa, Fla., Rancho Cordova, Calif., or Orangeburg, N.Y.
About 230 business and government account support positions will relocate to Hilliard, Ohio, Hanover, Md., or Alpharetta, Ga.
The company will maintain its Ohio/Pennsylvania/West Virginia Regional Headquarters in Warrendale with about 340 employees in sales, finance, information technology, marketing, human resources and other departments.
The contact center consolidations are part of a national realignment to fill vacant space and make better use of the company's facilities.
Nationwide, about 3,000 employees will need to seek other positions locally, relocate with company assistance to similar positions among the contact centers, or accept a separation package. Another 2,200 employees are transferring to other offices within driving distance.

Visitor spending in Henderson County last year increased to $218 million — a 4.3 percent increase from the previous year, according to economic impact data provided by the N.C. Division of Tourism, Film and Sports Development.
Visitor spending in Henderson County last year increased to $218 million — a 4.3 percent increase from the previous year, according to economic impact data provided by the N.C. Division of Tourism, Film and Sports Development.
The report said all 100 counties saw a bump in tourists' expenditures in 2012.
Travel in Henderson County ranked 17th in the state, and more than 1,960 jobs and $37.8 million in payroll were attributed to travel and tourism.
The big draws for visitors were the Blue Ridge Parkway, Carl Sandburg Home, Flat Rock Playhouse, apple orchards and outdoor recreational activities, according to the study.
Each county resident saved $176.92 in taxes as a result of state and local tax revenues amounting to $19.1 million.
"We are very excited," said Beth Carden, executive director for the Henderson County Travel Development Authority. "We've been expanding our market strategy to reach out to a variety of visitors."
The TDA seeks more tourists who have a broad range of interests.
"We offer a lot of cultural events and have some of the top camps," Carden said, citing a couple examples. "We want to enhance the visitor's experience. We want to give them reasons to stay as long as possible, and that makes a huge economic impact on the county."
She said there was a dip in visitor spending in 2009 and 2010, but that was reflected across the state as the nation battled the economic downturn.
Now the economy is bouncing back and the tourism industry is being positively impacted.
Domestic travelers in North Carolina spent a record $19.4 billion in 2012, an increase of 5 percent from 2011. Visitor expenditures directly generated 193,610 jobs and more than $4.3 billion in payroll income within North Carolina in 2012.
Buncombe County ranked the highest in the western region, reaching No. 5 in travel impact and bringing in $834 million in expenditures — a 6.5 percent increase from 2011.
The main attractions were the Biltmore Estate, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Botanical Gardens, French Broad River, North Carolina Arboretum, N.C. Homespun Museum, Asheville's Farmer's Market, Vance Birthplace, Folk Art Center, Pack Place Education, Arts and Science Center, Western N.C. Nature Center, Thomas Wolfe Memorial State Historic Site, Smith-McDowell House Museum and the Grove Park Inn.
Mecklenburg ranked No. 1, receiving $19.4 million in expenditures — a 7 percent increase from 2011.
Transylvania County pulled in $80.9 million dollars from tourist activity, a 4.6 percent increase, making the land of waterfalls 42nd in the state, according to the travel impact study.
Popular attractions included Brevard Music Center, Pisgah National Forest, Cradle of Forestry in an America, Whitewater and Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock and the French Broad River.
Polk County ranked 80th in the state, generating $22.6 million — a 4 percent increase from 2011.
The visitor spending figures come from an annual study commissioned by the Division of Tourism and conducted by the U.S. Travel Association. For more information visit www.nccommerce.com.

Greece secures delay but pain remains
The Greek drama, which has preoccupied Europe for almost three years, continues. Another chapter is turned. The problem lies unresolved.
The eurozone's finance ministers have given Greece another two years to make the cuts promised. It is a small reward for the Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras for arm-twisting through the Greek parliament another round of tax rises and spending cuts.
What the finance ministers did not do was agree on releasing further funding for Greece. And without the next tranche of 31bn euros ($39.3bn; £24.7bn) in loans, Greece faces bankruptcy. The decision has been postponed until 20 November.
Almost certainly, the deal will be done and Greece will get its money. The reason is political.
The decision to help Greece - come what may - was taken in early August. German Chancellor Angela Merkel put out the word that the possibility of Greece leaving the euro was off the table. She told her political allies to stop talking about it. French President Francois Hollande had told her he would not allow a Greek exit.
Above all, in a German election year, Mrs Merkel wants the Greek crisis to subside.
There are outstanding issues: more time means more money. There was a pretence that it didn't, but it does - between 25bn and 30bn euros. That will have to be addressed and the final deal will have to be passed by several national parliaments.
A second issue is what they call debt sustainability; can Greece meet the target for reducing its debts?
The current target is for the debt-to-GDP ratio to be 120% by 2020. That has now slipped to 2022, although the International Monetary Fund (IMF) insists they should stick to the original date.
Almost no-one believes this target - whatever the date - can be met. The current debt-to-GDP ratio is approaching 190%. The return to growth would have to be not just swift but record-breaking to reach the targets. So, sooner or later, Greece will either need more funding or a re-structuring of its debt.
There is further pause for thought: the EU and the IMF have consistently under-estimated the impacts of spending cuts on the real economy.
It has been far greater than envisaged.
And yet, with the latest measures that passed through the Greek parliament this week, more cuts are on the way. The head of the IMF, Christine Lagarde, whilst praising the Greeks for a strong resolve to implement the new programme, called it "very ambitious".
A second concern is political instability. The governing coalition in Greece is fragile. Sooner or later, another election will have to be held and anti-austerity parties may well come out the winner.
Important reforms are being embraced in Greece but the "return to sustainable growth" spoken of by Jean-Claude Juncker, who heads the Eurogroup of finance ministers - is very difficult to imagine. And patience in Greece with austerity is all but exhausted.
So a chapter turns. Not much more.

Looking for the family of Samuel Beckett and wife Sarah Tennell both born in Kentucky
Samuel Beckett and Sarah Tennell were married in Marion county Missouri. They were both born in Kentucky probably Bourbon county. Samuel's father was John and his mother Nancy(Fry) Beckett. It is proven that they had at least two children - Nancy Jane born Apr 1837 in Missouri and John William born 29 Jan 1849 in Wisconsin or Iowa (?)Different records show different places. With 12 years between the two known children there could possibly have been others that may have died early. Nancy Jane married William W. Shaw and John William married Anna Elizabeth Wright. The names within my family are the same as those prevelent in the Beckett family of Lewis county Kentucky. I strongly believe there is a connection between the two families but as yet have not been able to prove a link.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - Behind a 22-6 record and a regular season conference championship, the Tennessee Tech women's basketball team received a quartet of Ohio Valley Conference awards with junior guard Tacarra Hayes being named all-OVC first team and Co-Defensive Player of the Year, freshman forward Molly Heady being named to the all-newcomer team and head coach Sytia Messer receiving the OVC Coach of the Year award.
The awards were voted on by the sports information directors and coaches from around the OVC.
Hayes, who was named to the all-OVC first team last season, leads the Golden Eagles in points (452), rebounds (213), assists (129) and steal (47). The three time OVC Player of the Week was also named the OVC Co-Defensive Player of the Year along with UT Martins' Jasmine Newsome. She has also posted six double-doubles on the season and led the Golden Eagles in scoring in 16 games this season.
"Over the last two seasons I feel that Tacarra has developed into one of the elite players in the OVC," Messer said. "She provides a lot to the team both offensively and defensively and I am very proud of her."
Heady is the 28th Golden Eagle to be named to the OVC all-newcomer team and second in the last two seasons, with sophomore guard Kellie Cook earning the honor last season. The only freshman to play in every contest for the Golden Eagles, Heady is second on the team in scoring with 252 points and third on the team in rebounds with 153. In the OVC, she is first in free throw percentage shooting 86.4 percent, and fourth in field goal percentage shooting 48.4 percent from the field. She also recorded her first career double-double against Murray State (1/15) with 10 points and 12 rebounds.
"I am very happy for Molly," Messer said. "Molly was solid throughout the season and has taken her game in conference play to another level."
Messer's OVC Coach of the Year award marks just the seventh time in team history that a TTU coach has received the honor with Marynell Meadors winning the award twice (1978, 1984) and Bill Worrell winning it four times (1987, 1990, 1992, 2000). A season that featured a 10-game winning streak, Messer guided the Golden Eagles to its first conference championship and first 20-win season since the 2005-06 season when Tech finished the season with a 23-9 record.
"It is an honor to be named the coach of the year in the OVC," Messer said. "I have to give credit to my players and my staff for making my job easier."
With a #1 seed in the OVC Tournament, Tech has received a pair of byes and will not play until Friday's semi-final game scheduled for 12 p.m., in Nashville. Tech's three possible oppnents for the semi-final game include #4 Eastern Illinois, #5 Austin Peay and #8 Murray State. Tech finished the season with a combined 5-1 record against these opponents.

Vanderbilt Pulls Off a Triple Steal [VIDEO]
Every baseball season, there are a handful of triple plays, but a triple steal? That's far more rare.
Vanderbilt University pulled one off this week in a 4-1 win over Lipscomb, although it might have been 'helped' just a tad from a missed call at the plate.

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) – Don't take this as the doctor's advice on what to eat, but what Howard Dean remembers best is the ham sandwich.
Dean, a physician by training, sat in front of a webcam chatting between bites one day during his 2004 bid for the White House while then-Vice President Dick Cheney attended an event in South Carolina. Both were trying to raise campaign cash.
In that instance, Dean raised more.
It was a sea change in American politics that continues to resonate as the former Vermont governor, his campaign staff and supporters gather this weekend for the 10th anniversary of his campaign kickoff. That came June 23, 2003, when Dean drew a crowd of more than 5,000 to Burlington's Church Street Marketplace.
It all flamed out seven months later, when, after a disappointing third-place finish in the Iowa caucuses, Dean gave a concession speech that ended with a war whoop described as the "Dean scream" and replayed countless times in the days following.
But while it lasted, Dean scored several firsts, said Daniel Kreiss, an assistant professor of journalism at the University of North Carolina who has written extensively on the role of the Internet in politics.
Among them were the systematic uses of email to raise funds and blogging and social networking to organize supporters, Kreiss wrote in an email.
Dean also attracted young, tech-savvy bloggers through his campaign's willingness to use open-source software, Kreiss has written.
"On a cultural level, using open-source technologies reflected what these volunteers saw as the openness of the campaign," he wrote. Dean's volunteers "believed that the campaigns of Dean's rivals did not have the same open culture and therefore would be unable to take full advantage of this organizing tool."
The result, said Nicco Mele, who served as Dean's webmaster and now teaches at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, was a campaign that used online video in the days before YouTube and social networking before Facebook existed.
"It was the first political campaign to really aggressively utilize the Internet to raise money and organize people," Mele said. "We tried literally hundreds" of emerging Internet-based tools.
But all the new media would be for naught without Dean's positions on issues, said campaign manager Joe Trippi. As governor in 2000, Dean signed Vermont's first-in-the-nation civil unions law providing legal recognition to same-sex couples. Dean also scored points with young people with his opposition to the war in Iraq, which he called "the wrong war at the wrong time."
Trippi said in an interview that what he's most proud of about the campaign is the number of staffers who've gone on to senior roles in other campaigns, the tech world or the media. Former staffer Joe Rospars is founder and CEO of Blue State Digital and was principal digital strategist for both of Barack Obama's presidential campaigns. Garrett Graff, whom Trippi credits with coming up with the ham sandwich idea, is editor of The Washingtonian magazine. Trippi himself has been media strategist for several foreign campaigns and for that of California Gov. Jerry Brown in 2010.
"I don't remember a losing presidential campaign to launch that many successes across the country in different parts of government and politics," said Trippi. "It certainly has left its mark in a lot of ways."
Dean said he's looking forward to a gathering set for Sunday at Burlington's Oakledge Park for staffers and volunteers to reflect and reminisce. Dean insisted that he was not the key to his campaign's lasting impact.
"It isn't me; it's the movement that gathered under the banner of the campaign," he said. "It was the coming of age of the millennial generation politically. Even though I bear no resemblance to Gene McCarthy," who rallied young, anti-war activists to his 1968 presidential campaign, "it's sort of the same phenomenon for this generation."

Holiday Gift Idea #1: DUB-Designed Custom Ridez
Since 2000, DUB has designed nearly 300 vehicles for "A-List" celebrities like Shaquille O'Neal, Tony Hawk and David Beckham (though reports are in that Posh Spice actually drives), so it stands to reason that DUB knows what they're doing. Now they've created a line of toys with the same eye for design and quality. Each toy is equipped with Twenty Inches Strong(TIS) rims, realistic Pirelli tire treads, Eibach suspension kits and Borla exhaust sounds. Because it's not enough to just get your youngster a toy Ford truck; it should be a custom job, right?

Thankfully I don't have personal experience with most of Lindsay Lohan's misdemeanors, but I can totally relate to her latest screw-up: LiLo has fallen behind on her storage bill and now the contents of her unit are about to go up for auction. Bummer! I forgot to pay my storage bill so many times, I finally emptied the thing out (the late fees were killing me!). Granted, I've never fallen quite as far behind as Lohan, who currently owes the storage company approximately $16,000, but still. (Hey, now that I think about it, how the hell did she get away with not paying her bill for this long?! I only owed about 200 bucks when they started threatening me with that auction crap.)
Anyway, the point is Lindsay Lohan's belongings are probably about to be auctioned off.
And if you've been in her position, you know that she can't just go get all her stuff and put it somewhere else before it's sold, because those sneaky storage people change the lock on your unit when your account is "delinquent."
Can you imagine what manner of stuff the storage people will find when they lift that corrugated steel door? Somehow I doubt Tupperware containers filled with kids' artwork, Christmas decorations, and outdated appliances are on the list. Here are a few potential items from LiLo's unit I would totally expect to see on the auction block:
1. A Louis Vuitton trunk filled with thousands of dollars in jewelry and watches (plus a bunch of empty Ambien bottles)
2. A garbage bag filled with towels, little bottles of shampoo, and assorted mini bar items from the Chateau Marmont
3. A sawed-off house arrest ankle bracelet
4. Silicone breast implants (starter set)
5. Some hair she yanked out of Max George's head ("The Wanted") as he tried to escape her clutches
6. A book called How to Ward Off Gypsy Curses
7. One of Herbie's headlights
8. An empty bank envelope with the words To Lindsay, don't spend it all in one place! Ha! XO, Charlie p.s. WINNING!
9. A car scratch repair kit
10. An old lampshade (celebs: they're just like us!)
What would you expect to find in Lindsay Lohan's storage unit?

I decided instead to do Corin and have him meet me at the bottom. So my day ended after 162kms. I was a bit disappointed not to finish, but I also didn't want to leave my bro at the finish line for hours.
It really is a wonderful area for riding. Very little traffic, some brutal hills. That Honeysuckle climb was very tough, and Corin was just so annoying in that it is constantly changing gradient. It really knocked me around.
I'll be back next year and barring any mishaps will finish the 207km.
Now for the alpine!

The day really bloody hurt though. The heat really hit home, and I found it very difficult to keep eating. Everytime I took a gel or food I thought I was going to vomit.
And a very very special thanks to guys cycling from Sydney - on the Corin descent I lost my mate behind me. They offered me a lift in their 4wd (support vehicle) back to look for him. Found him with both spare tubes failed and pondering what he'd do. These guys gave us a tube as they were packing it in for the day.
The volunteers were also amazing. The campervan at the top of Corin and the guys at the top of Fitz's come to mind.
My mate from Sydney who rode with us did really well, blitzing the hills. And a mate from Wollongong completed the Epic in 8:05 elapsed, fantastic effort, even though he did describe it as a much much harder ride than he'd anticipated.
Hope to see you all out there next year. Last year I did the Classic, this year the Epic, next year I think the Tidbinbilla ride looks good
EDIT: and I slept for 12 hours last night, if anyone is up for a ride Monday or Tuesday let me know

To start with I was going great. Was in a big bunch from the start to Tharwa. I sat at the back and averaged 29km for that section without working up a sweat. Everything continued sweet up to Rendevous Ck, felt a bit rough on the way back, jumped on the back of a bunch from Fitz's back to Tharwa, then that was where the trouble started. I had a 15 minute break at Tharwa then left with the "Coast 2 Kosci 4 Kids" group. Great guys, were more then happy to help me out. But I hit a wall and I wasn't getting over it. I struggled up to the Corin turn-off, where I had to have another rest. I think I ran into the same Sydney crew you did Russ. They were doing the Epic, but a few of them had had enough and were waiting at the turn-off for their mates.
After Leaving the Corin turn-off (at this stage I was doing about 15km/hr) I got to Tanner's Flat, stopped again, then I stopped in the shade again down the road and again at Mt MacDonald check point. At this stage I was pretty crook. I should have called it off earlier but I really wanted to finish it. After leaving Mt McDonald CP, I got up there and then down to Urriara Homestead, where I finally called it quits. It was only 17km to the finish, but I honestly think I would have ended up in hospital if I tried to finish. I was gone.
I was fairly well hydrated and fed (I think, maybe I needed more then I thought). I never had much problem getting food and water into me. I think it was the heat mainly. I was fully sunscreened, with regular top-ups which stopped me getting burnt, but the heat was brutal on me and just floored me. I ended up doing 150km.
I think I may join you for the Tidbinbilla next year Russ, if I'm feeling keen I may do Tharwa.
EDIT: I woke up this morning feeling hungover. I wish I could sleep 12 hours. 2 young children prevents that from occurring. I had a headache, felt groggy. Feeling ok now, just tired. I've been eating non-stop today, just recovering. In hindsight, I was pretty sick yesterday.

It was my first attempt at Fitz's and I'm really glad there are a few hills in Central Victoria, where I live, of similar length and steepness. I ran out of water half way up the Corin Forest climb and noticed the very earliest signs of heat stress so I stopped at Billy Billy Creek, scrambled down to the trickle, had a drink, soaked my jersey in the cold water and got back on the bike. After 5 minutes at the Corin checkpoint, sitting in the shade and scoffing off two bananas and a whole nest of vipers, I felt fine again.
Coming down, I thought "It's in the bag, I've done 70 - 80 km rides feeling worse than this". And so it proved to be: I rode strongly all the way to the finish.
Thanks to the organisers and especially to the checkpoint crews who did a great job in trying weather.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- You never want to receive HUH? as a response from Jim Cramer. But even if he snarls at me in the halls of 14 Wall Street, I will live life on the edge. As explosive as ever. And, as the great Tom Petty said, I Won't Back Down.That's exactly the attitude I took in 2011 as Netflix ( NFLX) powered past $300. I remained bearish, knowing that we had a fundamentally broken company with a jive-talking CEO floating a classic momentum stock. Netflix's late-2011 implosion delivered vindication. Today I am on the right side of the trade, however my feelings haven't changed much about Netflix, the company. Despite a better-focused content acquisition strategy, Netflix might be in worse shape now than it was in 2011. The notion of Microsoft ( MSFT) bailing Netflix out sends me running for pint glass.
While it would not surprise me to see Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer make a move on Netflix -- it fits with his ongoing ineptitude -- it could end in another write-down or merely something even more embarrassing than Surface Tablet and Windows Phone sales figures. Monday on Twitter, Cramer responded to my ridicule of a Netflix/Microsoft hookup with the feared "HUH?":
Here's why a Microsoft-Netflix deal, even if it happens, is misguided:
1. Netflix's cash situation is deteriorating once again. Just like it did in 2011. See support for this contention in last week's Reed Hastings Hypnotizes Wall St. Analysts. 2. No matter how Netflix tries to explain it away (likely at the urging of the SEC), the company still has $5.6 billion in off-balance sheet, streaming content obligations, as of the end of the year, compared to $4.8 billion at the end of 2011. Nearly $2.3 billion of that is due in less than one year; roughly $5 billion of it inside the next three years. 3. Pursuant to No. 2, why would Microsoft, or any other company for that matter, want to assume what amounts to billions in debt to pay for largely non-exclusive content? It just doesn't make any sense. Microsoft, in particular, does not need Netflix to enhance Xbox. Why take on somebody else's problems? 4. Netflix is also spending millions on marketing, international expansion and original programming. Free cash flow continues to decrease. This is all public information. Available in the same annual reports and 10-Qs on the SEC Website that Wall Street ignored or chose to downplay in 2011. 5. If this was the story of a perpetual startup with a track record of execution spending money and sacrificing the balance sheet and bottom line to seize massive and realistically attainable long-term opportunity -- like Amazon.com ( AMZN) -- I could overlook the quantitative writing on the wall. However, the qualitative story sucks as well . . .Hastings spins everything positive. He situates the international expansion and original programming pushes as proof Netflix is on the right path when, in fact, it's these very moves that should trigger red flags.
Netflix has no choice but to head overseas and, in particular, take a long-shot bet on original content because there's no way it can survive as a third-party player licensing, by and large, non-exclusive, non-premium content. This is all eerily similar to how things came apart in 2011.

The 30A Songwriters Festival kicked off a week ago � at least for me.
Only a few hardy souls showed up for Stinkys� Old Bull, Young Bull but they were rewarded when Fiddlin� Bull, a.k.a. Kurt Storey, joined the party. When Kyle asked about a JJ Cale song, Kurt replied modestly, �I played with him.�
After touring last year with Reba McIntire and Vince Gill, Kurt helped John Prine update �Paradise� � a tune eerily haunting South Walton treasures. If you arrive on Thursday, the Bulls will be at Stinkys at 9 and The Forrest Williams Band starts around 6 at La Playa.
Try your own kickoff party, food�s good, too.
Last year we hit the trifecta; for Labor Day, Memorial Day and July 4th we bid our tourist friends adieu. The Songwriters Festival gives us a unique festival/tourist attraction locals can enjoy. At our house it�s a communal birthday present.
You can go for The Truman Show strategy and never leave Seaside. Regarding venues, the Seaside Rep can�t be beat. Alternatively, hop the shuttles up and down 30A to find someone special. Parking will be a problem, trust me. Be prepared to be surprised.
Three years ago, Nicole Witt was a mystery to me but when she nailed the final chord I knew what a hit sounded like. Then Mike Whitty had to follow her.
Have fun, be safe and tip your servers well � festival attendees have reputations to uphold.
Culture, the arts and South Walton�s natural beauty separate us from Destin and Panama City Beach but a little Hill Country wouldn�t hurt. Ray Wylie Hubbard would be my only, albeit gentle, suggestion for next year.
Markets go up and markets go down, make sure your investments have a degree of safety but beware of fool�s gold.
Seeking safety, a SoWal guitar picker (not a client) invested solely in the Thrift Savings Plan�s (TSP) �G� Fund. The TSP is a 401(k) plan for federal employees and light-years ahead of most private sector plans. The �G� Fund owns only short-term government bonds but stashing all your money there or in a money market fund merely gives a mirage of safety. You still face inflation risk and time in the market beats timing the market. Saving in an IRA or 401(k)-type plan won�t guarantee reaching your goals but it helps. Never move money from the TSP until age 70 �. A TSP rollover to an IRA prior to age 70 � is more foolish than Nick Saban trying a 56-yard field goal.
Last week I hammered big banks and was shocked to see noted libertarian and Ayn Rand devotee Alan Greenspan offering a mea culpa. When wrong, some people yell louder but intelligent folks change their minds.
Renouncing his earlier delusion that markets magically self-regulated, he agrees with me that large U.S. banks should have higher liquidity ratios or, in plain-speak, keep more money in reserve. Of course large banking conglomerates can have lower cash on hand but dividends would be limited as would salaries and bonuses for royalty, err, upper management.

(Jacket - River Island, Trousers - Primark £12, Bag - Zara, Watch - Micheal Kors)
I snatched these primark "silk" trousers up yesturday while on a mission to find a halloween costume, they are definatley not my usual style but I just loved the casual yet chic feel and thought for the price you couldn't go wrong.
For my first time wearing them, I kept it casual and all the accessories plain and simple leaving all the focus on the trousers. They are literally perfect for a get up, get dressed, get out the door day... and that's exactly what I did.
The only problem I could say, is they aren't the most flattering on the thigh and stomach area, so be careful if that's a place you like to cover up as I do feel they make everywhere on the top half look a lot bigger than it is!
They are a love/hate piece with many people, but I was just drawn to the fabric, pattern and Autumnal colours... oh and the price tag! Next time I wear them I think it may be some strappy heels and an oversized clutch, we will see!

Penelope Stowe of the Ubuntu Accessibility Team told me about Blogging Against Disablism Day. Disablism and ableism have the same meaning and are more regional than anything else. They refer to the underlying assumptions about what "everyone" can do. I live not far from Gallaudet University, the only accredited liberal arts university for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, so I actually come across people signing with some frequency.
When I first started signing, the friend who was teaching me (whom I met through the LoCo even!) would simcomm, and I learned from that. Now she usually doesn't speak at all when I'm around. She can safely assume I'll get enough context clues to learn whatever signs she uses that I didn't already know. I'm really happy about having achieved that level of fluency.
Last year, I used simcomm to give my presentation at Ohio LinuxFest. Mel Chua (Red Hat) and Bryen Yunashko (openSUSE) were both there. One is Hard of Hearing; the other is Deaf. I used a lot of ASL that weekend, not just for my own communication, but also as an interpreter for those giving directions. A few other hearing people even came up to me and started signing, since they saw me signing with Mel.
Maybe some day I'll be a certified interpreter. Right now, I can interpret in a pinch, but it's not pretty and doesn't have very good grammar. The trouble with simcomming so much is I have very little practice with using ASL-word-order. I intend to take an actual class to try to fix that.
I'm happy to see OLF has welcomed requests for assistance from disabled* attendees and speakers. I suspect I don't see many Hard of Hearing or Deaf people at conferences because they can usually safely assume there will be no accommodations, meanwhile there are no accommodations because organisers can usually safely assume there will be no HoH/Deaf people.
I don't know much about technological accessibility for those with hearing impairments. I do know Mel has complained that she has no way of knowing her system bell is on until her coworkers get upset at how loud it is. I know another friend complained that media players often now have the volume capped so that they are less likely to induce hearing loss but are unusable if you already have hearing loss. A Cowon D2 turned out to be loud enough for her to hear. I know videos without captions or podcasts without transcripts are a problem. I don't know what else though.
* Vocab note: A person has an impairment. Society's treatment of that impairment is what disables the person.

Studying for the LSAT / What should a good Lsat book be for beginners?« on: October 24, 2013, 05:38:07 PM »
I am currently a undergrad student majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Criminal Justice but I want to become a lawyer and I have heard it doesn't really matter what you major it. I want to know what book I should start using to study for the LSATs? I am a sophomore and I am planning to take the LSAT my first semester of senior year.

1. Devices of each platform should be numbered.
When two different processes call "clGetDeviceIDs()", the OpenCL standard does not (currently) guarantee that the physical devices will be listed in the same order for both.
What if a computer has two (or more) identical devices and a process specifically wants to use either the same physical device as another process did, or perhaps it wants to use a different device (for example due to heating, power-supply issues or a suspected hardware fault)? Currently there is no way to tell the difference.
Something as simple as:
- clGetDeviceInfo(param_name=CL_DEVICE_INDEX)
could solve this problem.
2. Allow use of OpenCL by both parent and child processes.
Currently in most implementations, if a parent process uses OpenCL in any way before calling "fork()", then its son processes cannot use OpenCL at all. This is because the OpenCL initialization by the parent usually involves opening files in "/dev", which are not inherited by son processes, leaving a mess in the OpenCL library's internal data-structures!
Suggesting as a solution either:
- clFork()
to be called by the son-process; and/or
- clCleanup()
to be called by the parent-process once it no longer needs to use the OpenCL library.

Kings-76ers Preview
Philadelphia 76ers coach Doug Collins has done his best patching
together lineups with the team generally struggling without a
couple key players.
As a result, players like Nick Young are beginning to embrace
their roles.
Philadelphia reaches the halfway point of an eight-game
homestand Friday night as it seeks an eighth victory in nine
meetings with the Sacramento Kings.
Andrew Bynum has yet to play for the 76ers (19-26) due to a
right knee injury after being acquired in the Dwight Howard trade,
and Jason Richardson is likely to miss a sixth straight game Friday
because of a left knee problem.
Collins has started Young the last three games in place of
Richardson and has given him increased minutes in the past six.
Young is averaging 17.8 points over the last four, including 18 in
Wednesday's 92-84 win over Washington as Philadelphia improved to
2-1 on its homestand.
Dorell Wright had seven points and seven rebounds in 16 minutes
after not playing the previous two games.
"It's been a challenge, to say the least, to try to get the
pieces to fit," said Collins, who has started 11 different players.
"I thank them for their professionalism. It's very easy for guys
who have been in the league a long time like that to just pack it
in, and neither one of them did that."
Young was benched for a win over Houston on Jan. 12, providing
him with the motivation to contribute in any way he's asked.
"That DNP, it hurt," Young said. "Sitting on the sideline, I
don't want to get back to that. I'm starting to buy into what the
coaches are talking about."
Collins has noticed the difference.
"He has really listened as we've tried to teach," Collins said.
"He has talent. I knew if he focused, he could be a terrific
player. He's earned the respect of his teammates and coaches."
The Sixers haven't won back-to-back games since a season
high-tying three-game winning streak Nov. 25-30. They'll try to do
so against a Sacramento team they've beaten by an average of 18.4
points over their last seven victories in the series.
The Kings' only win in the past eight meetings came in
They enter this one having dropped five of six, with the defeats
coming by an average of 14.8 points. They're allowing an average of
106.5 points in that span and rank near the bottom of the league at
103.1 per game for the season.
Sacramento (17-30) is 1-2 on a six-game road trip after falling
99-81 at Boston on Wednesday. Tyreke Evans had 19 points and 11
rebounds but also committed four of the Kings' 19 turnovers, about
their average (18.6) in the last five games.
"We were lackadaisical," said rookie Thomas Robinson, who scored
11 points off the bench.
Philadelphia has been outrebounded in six of its last seven
games, though it seemingly has a good opportunity to win that
battle against a Sacramento team that ranks among the league's
worst with a minus-3.5 rebound differential per game.
"We're as good as our big men play," Collins said. "When they
play well, we can play with most every team. People are going to
try and attack us in the paint because without Andrew Bynum we're a
small team."
Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, though, has averaged 10.5 points
and 5.0 rebounds over the last four games. He has no double-doubles
in that span after a stretch in which he posted six straight,
averaging 21.7 points and 13.3 boards.

Important Update: My sister has informed me that this is "Spin Dip". Carry on.
Spicy Spinach Artichoke Dip with Nayonaise
Hello, vegan specialty ingredient time! This Spicy Spinach Artichoke Dip is absolutely a guilty pleasure of a party treat. At my recent Double Dippin' party, it was one of the first things I noticed polished off! (because I was stoked to make more room for more dips!)
It's a combination of veganization and pine nut and nooch alteration of every single other artichoke and/or spinach dip that exists on the internet. Extra credit to my sister Jenny for insisting I add sour cream. She's a pro on matters of spinach meets artichoke – even if she did ask me the recipe for "dip" in the same conversation. What dip? "The dip you eat at parties"…that turned into a conversation about how the classic American dip is soup packet + sour cream + mayonnaise + cheese, etc – this vegan version is as close as I'll ever get!
Anyway, prior to this, the only other time I can recall eating artichoke dip was at Georgetown Liquor Company with my friends Vijjy and KJ in Seattle, which rules (just remember to say VEGAN). So does their dip. And my Class of 2000 of NW club.
Onto the super cheesy, somewhat spicy, packed with spinach artichoke dip:
Spicy Spinach Artichoke Dip with Nayonaise
- 14 ounce jar of marinated artichokes, briefly rinsed
- 4 ounce can of diced green chilies (I used one from Trader Joe's)
- 1 cup of Nayonaise* or other vegan mayo
- 1 cup of vegan parmesan (I used a blend of nutritional yeast and pine nuts)
- 1-2 cups of fresh baby spinach
- ½ cup of Tofutti Sour Cream or other vegan sour cream
- 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon of miso (I used chickpea)
- Freshly ground black pepper
Optional: 1-2 cloves of garlic, because I simply can't recall if I added them. It's harder to imagine I didn't.
Garnish: 2 tablespoons of pine nuts and a generous pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, added during the final 5 minutes of baking.
- Preheat oven to 350F and lightly grease a casserole dish, such as an 8×4.
- Add all ingredients except for the spinach into a food processor. Pulse a few times, until well mixed.
- Add a bunch of spinach and puree. Add another and do the same until you're done.
- Spoon into the casserole dish and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Remove from oven and add garnishes, if using. Turn the heat to 425F and bake an additional 5 minutes.
- Serve with dipping items, such as baguette slices. Go. Party.
The party slowly begins…hundreds of more dips arrived, seriously. This is just the primary Savoury table.
*Thanks Nasoya!!

Caddo Herald, August 14, 1914
Caddo Boosters Visit Neighbors
"The Caddo Corn Carnival boosters left Caddo Tuesday morning on a special train over the Katy to boost and advertise the Sixth Annual Caddo Corn Carnival. The train left Caddo promptly on scheduled time, and notwithstanding the fact a torrential rain was falling at the hour of leaving, more than one hundred and twenty-five boosters were at the depot and ready for the trip, thus proving conclusively that obstacles, however great, when thrown in the way of the Caddo booster, will be overcome. Had the weather been favorable fully 50 more people would have taken passage on the booster train. At Caney and Tushka we were fortunate in making the towns between showers.
Upon our arrival at Atoka we were enthusiastically received by the citizens of that progressive little city and shown many courtesies by them. They ALL promised to come to Caddo during the Carnival. At Atoka then we left the main line of the Katy, going to Midway, Phillips, Lehigh, and Coalgate, being warmly received at each place. At Coalgate we spent two hours, taking dinner at that place.
From there we went to Wapanucka over the Rock Island, there meeting a number of old time citizens of Caddo, among them was Ben Payne who is in the drug business over there and is doing a splendid business. Ben's store was headquarters for the boosters during their stay in Wapanucka.
At Milburn the boosters were well received and shown many favors.
At the quaint and historic Tishomingo we were given a most cordial welcome. There we met Bert Robertson, editor of the Capital Democrat. Bert is an old Caddoite and his friends here will be glad to know that he is prospering in his adopted city. D.B. Williams met friends and relatives there whom he had not seen for twenty-five to thirty years. The citizens of Tishomingo took a number of the boosters over the city in automobiles and reviewed the many places of interest of that city. From here we went to Randolph where the change was made to the Frisco, thence to Madill, and were given the glad hand by the progressive citizens of that thorough going city. Many old time Caddoites are residents of this beautiful little city.
The next stop of the boosters was at Kingston, where we were met at the depot by a band and the entire citizenship of that splendid little city. One of the most cordial welcomes we received was at Kingston. From there we went to Woodville, and Platter, billing both those towns, thence on to Denison where the royal welcome awaited us. At Denison we were met at the depot by the Chamber of Commerce and by thousands of the good people of the Gate city. From the depot we were escorted to the Denison Hotel where a sumptuous banquet was served by the Denison Chamber of Commerce. The whole-souled manner in which we were received, the royal manner in which we were entertained has helped to cement in closer bonds of friendship the best town in Texas and the best town in Oklahoma. The evidences of friendship and good fellowship we witnessed in Denison form the time of our arrival until our departure was truly gratifying and inspiring. The night was spent in Denison and Wednesday morning at 8:30 the start was made for Sherman.
We were received in Sherman by the Chamber of Commerce and were shown many courtesies, we were given Sherman-made cigars to smoke, cold drinks that were manufactured in Sherman, a moving picture show was running for the special benefit of the boosters, it was all free, it being Sherman's day to entertain.
From Sherman the return trip to Caddo was begun, making stops at Colbert and Calera where we were well received. At Durant the boosters paraded the streets and exhibited a goat which had been captured somewhere on the route by the boosters, it was reported as being Judge Robertson's goat and Caddo "got it". This good natured little stunt was very well received by the people of Governor Williams' home town.
The boosters had a splendid band of twenty pieces and received many flattering compliments for the band boys.
At almost every stop the people marveled at the demonstration made by a town so small as Caddo, and the larger cities freely admitted that their towns, although many times the population of Caddo, could not make such a demonstration successfully. At Lehigh a man inquired the population of Caddo, and on being told 2000, remarked that evidently the entire population was aboard the booster train.
At Denison one man remarked "what on earth would Caddo do tonight if a fire should occur?" He thought it wonderful that a town could send out on a booster trip almost ten per cent of its population and predicted that a town with such progressive and aggressive citizens is bound to rise to an important city. It was suggested that "there is nothing between Denison and Caddo but Red River." and the suggestion that it be made navigable, thus being of untold benefit in developing this great section of North Texas and Southern Oklahoma was enthusiastically received.
J.C. Davison, local agent for the Katy railway, was in direct charge of the train, and so well did he do his duty, and so accommodating withal, that he was given a vote of thanks.
We should be glad to give a more minute account of the trip but time and space forbid. On the whole the trip was a grand glorious success, and we are very grateful indeed for the manner in which we were received by the various towns visited.
J.E. Davis was the Booster Policeman, he was such a good one that there has already been talk of running him for the chief of police of Durant.
Art Wright was Goat Master; the similarity of dialect, looks and general appearance caused considerable comment at the different towns as to the relationship of goat and master. Any how, Art saw to it that nobody got Caddo's goat.
Claude Smith, John Boland, and Sam Maytubby were the chief booster orators.
*Owing to sickness in his family one of Caddo's main boosters, W.F. Dodd did not get to go. Dodd not only is a Caddo-booster from way back, but he's some road builder, being the moving spirit behind Caddo's good roads. If it were not for losing him as a citizen we would suggest his appointment as state highway commissioner under Governor Bob Williams."

Five Ideas for A Beautiful Small Space
The first thing you might do when confronted with a tiny space is some measuring. You have to make sure you can actually fit all the basics. But don't stop there...make even the smallest of spaces beautiful. Here's how:
1. Use the ceiling. Hanging a special mobile, lanterns, or vintage lighting will draw the eyes up and utilize your vertical space. Consider wallpapering the ceiling or painting it a different color from the walls. (Example: Mallory Gray's room)
2.Use single, horizontal wall shelves to house beautiful objects or collections. The shelf will lengthen the space and add visual interest. In a child's room, a picture rail housing a few beautiful children's books will have the same effect. Hanging bunting or a series of photos on a string will have a similar effect. (Example: DIY Striped Shelves & Wall)
3.If you have a window in your space, buy or make curtains that give the illusion of a much larger window. Choose a beautiful fabric and let it drape ceiling to floor. You might also consider hanging a curtain above the window frame for the illusion of height. (Example: A Baby Bachelor Pad with a Bit of Blue)
4.Create a focal point. In a bedroom, the bed is the obvious choice, but a beautiful antique armoire or mantle will also work. Don't be afraid to go big on this piece. Having a small space doesn't necessarily mean you have to have all small scale furniture. In fact, one larger piece will oftentimes make the room appear larger. Another idea is to wallpaper one wall of the room to create a focal point behind the bed or elsewhere. (Example: Will's Red Bed)
5.Careful editing. Of course, any space will look smaller and less pleasing to the eye if it's cluttered. Choose your focal point and any display objects carefully. Keep things simple, bright, and airy. A rule of three usually works well. Choose three objects or furnishings to focus the eye on and let the rest blend into the background. (Example: My Room: Shane)

The elliptical trainer and its smooth oval foot pattern was a hit the moment it arrived on the scene in the mid-1990s, but a good one that could stand up to regular home use without rattling apart has never come cheap. That's doubly true of some of the expensive new sub-categories that have arisen recently, such as the seated elliptical, which gives older exercisers a safer all-body workout, and the suspended elliptical, which has a free-form, variable movement that is a favorite of high-performance exercisers. Fortunately, the market has finally responded with newer, high-quality and affordable alternatives, such as the models below.
Elliptical trainers: In the Feb. 21 Health section, a Gear column on home elliptical trainers listed an incorrect website for the Inspire CS2 Cardio Strider. The correct website is www.inspirefitness.net. —
Suspended elliptical
LifeCore VST: Suspended "Variable Stride Trainer" that perches users on floating foot pedals that, since they're not attached to conventional rails, allow them to create their own stride pattern, from stepping to full-bore striding.
Likes: Solid feel during all ranges of movement. Although not inexpensive, it manages to mimic the Precor EFX, the sub-category pioneer, at half the price. I worked out hard for 30 minutes and didn't hear a squeak. At 4 feet, 8 inches long, it's a bit more compact than a standard elliptical. Nice features include an on-the-go automatic stride adjustment, from 18 to 26 inches, and many programs, including heart-rate control. A heart-rate chest strap is optional.
Dislikes: None.
Price: $2,999. (888) 815-5559; lifecorefitness.com.
Seated elliptical
Inspire CS2 Cardio Strider: Recumbent elliptical machine that can be used by a wide range of exercisers: those who are obese, overweight or out of shape, as well as serious athletes.
Elliptical trainers: In the Feb. 21 Health & Wellness section, a Gear column on home elliptical trainers listed an incorrect website for the Inspire CS2 Cardio Strider. The correct website is www.inspirefitness.net. —
Likes: Smooth, solid and quiet feel combined with a pleasant, do-it-all-day foot motion. The foot traces not a full oval but a straight-ahead path with a slight oval curve at the end, supposedly designed to be easy on the knees and back. I liked it. The easy-access step-in design accommodates even obese bodies yet has enough high-performance features to please serious workout junkies. Included is a large display and an innovative ticker-tape-style banner that guides you through exercise routines — telling you, for example, to use "just arms" or "just legs." It's far less expensive than similar seated ellipticals and steppers from sub-category pioneers Octane and Nustep, respectively, that are also targeted at older, heavy-set people.
Dislikes: None.
Price: $1,495 to $1,795. (877) 738-1729; http://www.inspirefitness.com.
Solid Standard Elliptical
Sole E35: A traditional elliptical machine on which the user stands erect and the foot platforms ride on rails.
Likes: Solid, steady and feature-laden. Includes a push-button power incline ramp, which maxes out at 30 degrees; a 20-inch stride length, adequate for intense workouts; heavier-than-average 25-pound flywheel to keep pedaling smooth; a built-in iPod plug and a wireless heart-rate chest strap (considered more accurate than common hand-touch contacts); and a large LCD screen with an integrated sound system and lots of information, including a time countdown on the workout and calorie burn count.
Dislikes: The pedals unfortunately tip you forward. Although some may get used to this quickly, I found it quite irritating compared with machines with a flatter stride. Assembly is required, which takes two to four hours.
Price: $1,299. (866) 780-SOLE; http://www.Soletreadmills.com.
Techy econo elliptical
Livestrong LS10.0E: Mid-range model of a new brand that is associated with the Lance Armstrong charity and is built by Johnson Health Tech, makers of Vision, a major specialty-store brand.
Likes: Good all-round package with a few interesting techy flourishes. It has a sturdy, smooth feel, comfortable 20-inch stride length (not the choppier 17- and 18-inch strides of others at this price), a power incline button (20 levels at 5% increments) and a 23-pound flywheel (also good for the price). The pedals ride flatter and more naturally than the Sole, with no tipping-forward issues. Includes a strong fan, iPod jack and speakers, and heart-rate hand contacts. High-tech-wise, It stands out with a USB flash port on the console that lets you transfer your workout data to a PC and track your personal progress on livestrong.com, as well as download Lance Armstrong workouts.
Dislikes: Some wayward squeaks here and there (more than the Sole). No heart-rate chest strap. Assembly takes two to four hours.
Price: $999. (800) 335-4348; http://www.johnsonfit.com.

Tofu and
From: Maren -
Berkeley, CA, USA
(1) Combine the first four ingredients in a small bowl and set
(2) Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until
it is hot but not smoking. Make sure the tofu is patted very dry
to prevent sticking. Add the tofu and stir-fry until lightly golden
all over. Remove to a platter and reduce the heat to medium-high.
(3) If there is no oil left in the pan, add a teaspoon or so. Add
the garlic and crushed pepper flakes and cook 1 minute. Stir in

the garlic. Pour in the water, toss, then cover the pan. Cook 5
minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet still crunchy.
