Best Thing Since Sliced Bread: A Roti-Making Machine
The inventors of a countertop roti-making machine are getting ready to introduce their creation to the North American market.
Rotimatic, the first-of-its-kind robotic kitchen appliance that churns out puffy Rotis, or tortilla-like flatbread will sell for $599 in the U.S. to customers who order online starting Thursday, Zimplistic, the company that makes the Roti machine said.
But there's still a bit of a wait after orders are placed.
The device will be shipped to U.S.-based customers starting in March next year for orders received during what the company called the 'pre-order period,' which began Thursday. Although Zimplistic did not specify how long this period will last, it said that orders will be honored according to a first-come, first-serve basis.
Once the period ends, the Rotimatic will retail for $999.
"One of the reasons for taking pre-orders is it helps us forecast the demand a bit better," said Rishi Irani, who co-founded Zimplistic with his wife in 2008.
There was a flood of interest from the South Asian diaspora eight months ago when the Singapore-based company posted a four-minute video on YouTube showing how the Rotimatic works. Since then, the clip has been viewed more than 2 million times.
The inventors claim it is capable of producing hot, round Rotis, also known as 'chapattis,' at a rate of one-a-minute. It works with any type of wheat flour and one can choose from the settings how soft or thick they want their flatbreads.
The company said to achieve this they had to engineer technology from scratch, filing eight patents in total for the invention.
The U.S. launch follows a pilot run in Singapore which Mr. Israni described as "extremely successful."
"We put a lot of units into people's homes and got back lots of feedback to prepare us for the U.S.," he said.
Mr. Irani refused to say when the product will be available in India, possibly its biggest market.
Compared to other similar kitchen appliances, the Rotimatic is far more expensive.
A high-end bread maker by Panasonic, for example, costs $170.
Smaller, more basic models that simply flatten and cook the dough can go for as little as $14, but no one machine combines the back-breaking effort of almost 20 different steps including measuring, kneading, rolling and monitoring dough as it cooks slowly in a hot pan.
The Rotimatic's inventors claim it can do everything – all you have to do is add flour and water.

Gay marriage, taxes, and the law of unintended consequences
Last year was a triumphant year for gay marriage in California. That means that this year, for many newly wed gay couples, April 15 was the first time they filed their taxes as married couples. I have it on very good authority that many of these newly nuptialed couples are extremely unhappy now that they're dealing with the infamous marriage penalty.
Considering how politically powerful gay men have become, could gay marriage lead to lower taxes?
And while we're talking about taxes, Bill Whittle offers a sensible tax policy, one that would give all citizens a stake in America, while ending the current policy of taxing the producers right out of existence:
Flat taxes, once I understood how they worked, were one of the stepping stones on my way to conservativism. Twenty years ago, a brilliant conservative managed to explain to me how an across the board 10% sales tax would work. When he first told me about it, I got ruffled, pointing out that this was regressive tax that would hurt poor people. He shook his head sadly at my ignorance and explained that the most that poor people would get taxed, if they spent every penny they had, would be 10%, which is a reasonable amount to pay to have a stake in this country. (This was 20 years ago, before 51% of Americans paid nothing at all.) Moreover, he said, the bulk of taxes would come from those who aren't poor, because middle class and rich people buy more. Everyone buys staples, but it's the classes above the poverty line who have always — as a practical matter — bought into the American dream.
A 10% tax wouldn't be high enough to deter high income spending, especially if there were no other taxes, so middle and upper class Americans would have an incentive to invest in the economy through purchasing goods. In the meantime, a 10% sales tax might be high enough to encourage a poor person to save more, rather than to buy inessential products, helping the poor person to stay solvent.
Certainly, a flat sales tax (or any flat tax) would be cheaper to administer than our current tax system. If it unleashed a rising tide of prosperity, it would bring in more revenue. On the other hand, if it brought in less revenue, it would stop rampant government spending (this was also before debt ceiling wars).
Bottom line: Anything more simple and more fair than what we have now is a better tax system.

MONTAGUE, Calif. — Environmentalists who sued a water district here over the operation of a roughly 90-year-old dam here have settled the case with the district.
Klamath Riverkeeper and its ally, the Karuk Tribes, gained a slight decrease in diversions for irrigation from Shastina Reservoir to preserve the Shasta River, a key tributary to the beleaguered Klamath River.
Historically, the Montague Water Conservation District has diverted about 22,000 acre-feet per year. The agreement allows the district to divert 20,500 acre-feet in average water years, though diversions could fluctuate depending on wet or dry conditions, the tribes explained in a news release.
District officials said Dec. 23 the terms of the agreement are consistent with their conservation goals. The district maintains its operations provide substantial benefits to the fisheries within the watershed.
The Orleans, Calif.-based Klamath Riverkeeper filed an Endangered Species Act lawsuit in federal court in Sacramento last year. The suit called on the irrigation district to remedy the Dwinnell Dam's impacts to coho salmon runs, which the group asserts are on the verge of extinction.
Klamath Riverkeeper argued that the dam, which creates the Shastina Reservoir and provides water to agricultural and residential customers, has caused a loss of 20 percent of habitat for coho in the Shasta River since it was built in the 1920s.
The Dwinnell Dam is not one of the four slated for removal as part of the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement.

Instead of calling myself an atheist I'd rather call myself a person of reason.
Plus what hits harder when someone asks if you believe in god, replying "No, I'm an atheist." OR "No. I'm a man/woman of reason".
(Though I do realise 'atheist' is a little sexier and easier to google.)
Views: 1134
Funniest thing I've read in this discusion. Mainly because I relate.
I don't care for the connotations of the word atheist, though it's technically the most accurate definition of my stance on deities. The simple phrase "I'm not religious" is the most useful and least provocative way I've found to describe myself in most everyday circumstances.
It has it's limitations, though. I've had very religious people tell me that they're "not religious" either; among believers nowadays, it's somewhat fashionable to say that you disavow the "man-made" religion while still believing in God, or that you're a "follower of Jesus" or some such nonsense. In that case, if they push it, you have to draw a clearer line sometimes.
If I'm asked directly if I believe in God, though I don't think I really ever have been asked, I'd have to answer a simple "No," and just leave it at that. I don't feel the need to offer an alternative.
When asked why I do not believe in any god/gods, I usually reply that i do not have any imaginary friends.
Same here, no imaginary friends, and no imaginary truths :)
Do theists place as a reference on their resumes, 'Imaginary Friends'. I expect some would 'know' more of the imaginary variety and anything/anyone that was real. If this would happen, it might the rest of us look good!
The difference is like going into a gunfight with a .44 Magnum as opposed to a b-b gun.
Every time I try explaining myself to a Theist, they just start bleeding out of their nose...
...I gotta stop doing that. :D
Kris F., you came close.
Dan, aka man of reason: are there any times in your life that "man of emotion" describes you more accurately?
Rene Descartes didn't feel; he only half was.
Best video answer I've ever seen to this question, in the initial portion, the next portion are good arguments against religiously pushed procreation.
Thanks for sharing.

Art at the end of the oughts
After the earthquake of 2008, when art movers and shakers got shaken up and numerous galleries crumbled, 2009 was a relatively calm, even upbeat year for art in the 'ville.
A new face and a facelift: In March, Bruce Boucher took over the helm of the UVA Art Museum. Some feared the new director, an expert on 16th century Italian architecture, might prefer all things dusty, but Boucher quickly demonstrated an open mind, a wicked wit, and a heartfelt desire to create a more simpatico relationship between the Museum and the community. The first major accomplishment under the Boucher regime? A $2.5 million summer renovation of the Museum, which resulted in improved gallery lighting and climate-control technology, along with a new print room that's an educator's delight.
Boxed in: Perhaps the most engaging exhibition of 2009 was Second Street Gallery's "Impera et Divide." Curated by Charlottesville fave and art renegade Warren Craghead III, along with Portuguese artist Pedro Moura, the March-April show highlighted six international artists who adopt the sequential approach of comic-book art and carry it in unexpected and thrilling directions.
Click clique: In June, National Geographic photographer Michael "Nick" Nichols, and company served up a delicious third year of "three days of peace, love, and photography" to photo-philes who flocked to town for the Charlottesville Festival of the Photograph. This year's "big three" legacy artists included Sylvia Plachy, Gilles Peress, and the completely delightful Martin Parr, whose self-effacing British humor had his Paramount "InSight" audience gasping for breath between laughs.
Zounds found sound: Two separate exhibitions wowed lovers of the avant-garde with work that combined visual and auditory experiences incorporating cast-off objects. In May, Greensboro, N.C.-based Invisible, a collaborative trio consisting of Mark Dixon, Bart Trotman, and Jonathan Henderson, installed and played "Rhythm 1001" at Second Street Gallery. And in September, New York artist David Ellis and composer Robert Lange created a delightfully animated trash pile called "Bing" at The Bridge.
Re-opened eyes: Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Les Yeux du Monde, which closed its West Main location at the end of December 2008, re-opened in October in a new state-of-the-art building designed by award-wining architect W.G. Clarke. Not only is the gallery ironclad- literally- but so is LYdM's owner Lyn Warren's right to it since it's located on her Albemarle County estate. Here's to no more lost leases!
Experimental art space Try & Make opened next to Reid's Market in May but called it a day by August. Despite the dismal economic climate, no other galleries closed in 2009, and both the Charlottesville Community Design Center and The Bridge Public Arts Initiative celebrated fifth-year anniversaries. Plus, Sage Moon Gallery reestablished itself at Siips Fine Wine and Champagne Bar on the Downtown Mall, and Skylight Studios opened on Second St.

VIDEO: Sneak Peek - Mid-Season Finale of The CW's THE VAMPIRE DIARIES
Below, check out a sneak peek at the Mid-Season Finale of The CW's THE VAMPIRE DIARIES airing Thursday, December 10th at 8/7c.
In the THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, the world of Mystic Falls was turned upside down when the beautiful and compassionate Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) came face-to-face with her worst nightmare – life as a vampire.
While Elena struggled to control her new powers and the overwhelming thirst for blood, the astonishing news that a cure for vampirism may actually exist reached Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) Salvatore, the two vampire brothers who love her. Their search for the cure leads the brothers, along with Elena's brother Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and her best friends Bonnie (Kat Graham) and Caroline (Candice Accola), to a horrifying confrontation with the ancient and all-powerful immortal, Silas, who has been entombed with the cure for more than 2,000 years.
But Elena isn't the only vampire who longs to return to life as a human, and the question of who will take the cure is resolved in the heart-stopping season finale, along with moments of unexpected joy, unspeakable sorrow, and a confession of true love. The series heads into its fifth season with some characters headed off to college, a newly cured vampire trying to survive as a human, and a shocking Salvatore secret.
Based on the series of books by L. J. Smith, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Outerbanks Entertainment, Alloy Entertainment, Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios. The series was developed by Kevin Williamson ("The Following," "Scream") & Julie Plec ("Kyle XY," "Wasteland"), who serve as executive producers along with Leslie Morgenstein ("Gossip Girl," "Pretty Little Liars") and Caroline Dries ("Melrose Place," "Smallville").

A spring awash with Etch A Sketch conservatives, camera-wielding GOP con men and a bogus deficit reduction budget from House Republicans shows that for the right, wrong is justified when it achieves the desired results.
A perfect example of this political philosophy is the work of James E. O'Keefe III, a right wing, unsupervised, unaccountable, self-appointed and self-styled "investigative journalist" who has violated federal law, lied about his identity and deceitfully cut and pasted video to destroy what he perceives as liberal institutions.
Oddly for the party that claims conservative Christians as key constituents, O'Keefe's misbehavior is celebrated by GOP talking heads — the likes of Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity. That encourages copycats. The New York Times last week told the tale of one. John M. Howting, a bungling video scam man, sees himself as an O'Keefe apostle.
Honorable journalists abide by an ethics code forbidding lying to secure a story. For them, the end does not justify the means. By contrast, for O'Keefe and today's Etch A Sketch conservatives, the end they want vindicates any scheme to secure it. Deliberate lying, cynical deceit, cut-and-paste deception – all of that is rationalized by conservatives to get their way. It's a lovely escape clause they've written for themselves from that annoying Judeo-Christian thou-shalt-not-lie commandment.
O'Keefe wanna-be John M. Howting tried clumsily to trod in his disgraced mentor's footsteps, lying about his name, who he represented and his intentions in a failed effort to discredit a couple of what he perceived to be liberal New York community groups.
O'Keefe had better luck. This right wing rebel without a conscience lied about his name, who he represented and his intentions in successful efforts to manipulate some targets into saying stupid stuff, which he surreptitiously recorded. His deceptive and distorted films destroyed ACORN and damaged other groups he considered progressive. Despite O'Keefe's liberal use of the Commandment escape clause, he became conservatives' golden boy.
Among right-wing talk show hosts who urged their conservative Christian listeners to praise the con was Bill O'Reilly who said O'Keefe should be awarded a Congressional Medal. Not so worshiping were federal prosecutors who charged O'Keefe with misrepresenting himself in an attempted phone hacking at the office of U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La. O'Keefe pleaded guilty. And not so revering was the California state attorney general who determined that O'Keefe's sliced-and-diced video misrepresented the actions of ACORN workers.
Conforming to the conservatives' philosophy of wrong-is-right-if-the-right-benefits is GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Like a Judas, he betrayed his own health insurance program.
Romney contended that requiring everyone to get health insurance – known as the individual mandate -- was good when he was governor of Massachusetts and signed Romneycare, which includes it. As Congress considered health care reform, Romney repeatedly said Romneycare should be the model for the nation. But later when conservatives blasted the individual mandate in Obamacare, Romney sold out his Massachusetts plan, saying an individual mandate was not good for the nation.
Similarly, in 1994 during Romney's failed campaign for U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy's seat, Romney and his wife attended a Planned Parenthood fundraiser and she donated $150 to the group. But now, in pursuit of the vote of the anti-abortion Christian right, Romney no longer likes Planned Parenthood so much, promising:
Are those switches adorable little flip-flops or calculated lying? The comments of a chief Romney aide, Eric Fehrnstrom, show they are calculated. A reporter asked Fehrnstrom how Romney would appeal to crucial middle-of-the-road voters in the fall after taking such hard right positions in the spring to win the primary. Fehrnstrom compared the campaign to an Etch A Sketch:
So, basically, tell the conservative Christian primary voters one thing. Then tell the mainstream general election voters something else. This is the campaign of the GOP front-runner, the party's likely standard-bearer. This is who most Republicans voted for.
It makes sense really. Apparently Republicans don't expect the truth. Look at the Ryan budget. He calls it the Path to Prosperity. The nation went down this road of tax cuts for the rich and program cuts for the middle class before, under Bush II, and it was a one-way road to increased income inequality. Voodoo trickledown economics is a path to prosperity only for the already prosperous.
Congressman Paul Ryan contends his budget is a deficit-buster, that it would shrink the deficit to 1.2 percent of the gross domestic product by 2022 – which is exactly the same place where the country would be if it did nothing, according to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office. In addition, the cumulative 10-year deficits under Ryan's plan would be $200 billion higher than just doing nothing. No busting going on there.
The GOP wants conservative Christian votes so badly it's willing to break those set-in-stone rules conservative Christians revere. Frankly, it's surprising this behavior doesn't make conservative Christians cross. Republicans might consider resurrecting respect for the 9th Commandment if they want to avoid a Christian right inquisition into their Etch A Sketch positions.

So often elite performers talk of childhood dreams and lifelong plans, explaining how the quest for success has been a long-term, all-consuming project. But with Laura Muir, it's different. While there is no doubting the 1500 metres athlete's standing after a year in which she has delivered records, titles, an Olympic final and now been voted Scottish Athlete of the Year by her peers, hopes of those accomplishments did not dominate her childhood.
Growing up she had her heart set on becoming a vet, not an Olympian. "I grew up with animals and love working with them and couldn't really see myself doing anything else," she said. "I love the sciences and I was smart enough and I thought well, if I'm smart enough and I love animals, then veterinary seemed the logical thing to do."
It is all very logical but now that she is well on the way to earning her degree and the realisation of that ambition, those career goals are now accompanied by athletics targets, too. Fulfilling those, though, is still viewed, endearingly and ratherly humbly given the effort and sacrifice that has gone into elevating her to the higher echelons of her sport, as a bonus.
"I always ran when I was little, just because I enjoyed it. I was never all that good – I had a habit of scraping into finals and coming last. I just did it because I enjoyed it."
Muir does not look like the hard-nosed competitor. There isn't an obvious steel in her eyes, she is softly spoken and she is petite. But, boy, is she driven. She will take part in the Scottish short course cross country event in Renfrew on Saturday before heading to South Africa for winter training.
Combining her veterinary studies with training and racing, she has had a pretty meteoric rise. Some come through the junior ranks honed and in need of only some fine tuning but Muir arrived at the top virtually unheralded. Spotted by her current coach Andy Young when she started university, he recognised the raw talent. Since 2011 she has justified that faith. In 2014, at a Diamond League event in Paris, she bettered Yvonne Murray's Scottish 1500m record with a 4min 00.07sec run. It was a landmark that had stood for 27 years. In 2015 she had commentators and pundits gushing as she finished fifth in the World Championships. People were noticing her and they were tipping her for great things.
This year, she geared up for her first Olympics with another Diamond League triumph, at the Anniversary Games Park in London in July. That night she ran 3:57.49 cheered on by a buoyant home crowd to break Dame Kelly Holmes' British record. In Rio, the 23-year-old tried to translate that form and that promise into a medal but had to settle for seventh in the final, having given her all.
At the time she had no regrets. And while her coach Young – who has been rewarded for his efforts and named Scotland's Performance Coach of the Year – says that hindsight might entice him into some minor tweaks, Muir is still content that they gave their all.
"[Ethiopia's Genzebe] Dibaba made a big kick with 700m to go, and I managed to keep with it for about 400 or 500m. But over the last 200m I just filled up, and my legs went from me.
"I watched it back a couple of times – I was trying to be analytical to find any faults or points where I'd gone wrong. But Andy and I watched it and he said, 'no, you did everything that you could have done.' It was just the way it happened on the day. I came out of it feeling pretty happy with how I had dealt with it. Mentally I was so, so focused and didn't get overwhelmed by it at all and I was exactly where I wanted to be in terms of that.
"I didn't let the experience affect me and my preparation was very good and my recovery was really good, all those sorts of things, so we know that for the next major championships we can do everything the same, because everything was perfect and I was flying and we showed that in Paris [when she ran 3.55.22, a time only one other female athlete has bettered since 2000] the week or so later. We knew I was in great shape, so we just have to do the same thing the next time and maybe look at the race a little bit more."
There was not the worldwide audience in Paris, but, in terms of the part it played in helping her win the overall Diamond League title – just the third British woman to do so – it set her apart from the long list of peers who voted her Scotland's athlete of the year for the second time in a row.
But all that is a byproduct of doing something she adores. "I was never winning races before so that's just a bonus now. It's not because I get to travel the world or meet all these people or get to go to awards nights. I do it because I love what I do."
For now that will be at 1500m, where she says she still has a lot to aim for but the natural progression, as far as both athlete and coach are concerned, would be to step up to longer distances. Muir is 23 and for someone who has time and talent on her side, her distance running affords her the realistic opportunity of competing at another three Olympics. She has the ability and the opportunity to tweak training and tackle some longer hauls. It's not something she is in a rush to do, which may seem surprising given the speed at which she has evolved so far. But she has unfinished business, feeling she is only really getting going over 1500m.
"I think running 3.55 is not too bad, so, hopefully, he will keep me at the 1500m for the next few years," laughs Muir, referring to her coach and mentor. "From the sessions we do, some are more endurance based and I have been doing very well in the 5k sessions, so I could be very good doing the 5k."
But that is tough and, with a long career ahead of her, she is keen to pace herself.
It is funny, she says, to look back at her performances and her training prior to joining forces with Young. "I don't ever remember being tired, so I had to kind of teach my body how to push myself. It wasn't until Andy pushed me that bit more that I realised how far I could push my body."
She has been pushing and pushing ever since. But there is more to come. Bettering times already posted will be tough but now she is harbouring dreams of major medals.

Compromise puppy-mill bill passes
State Rep. Brenda Kupchick's four-year campaign to stop Midwestern puppy mills from dumping genetically inferior animals on Connecticut's pet owners culminated early Wednesday in a compromise bill that would return retail prices and vet bills for newly purchased dogs and cats that become sick.
The bill, which unanimously passed the House and had previously been approved in the Senate, moves to Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's desk.
While Kupchick, R-Fairfield, failed in her attempt to create an outright ban on puppy sales in the state's 16 pet shops that sell canines, said the bill would go a long way toward assuring people that the puppies they buy are not sick or have chronic ailments; and if they are ill, the shops will pay medical bills and return purchase costs.
"The bill allows for a lot more accountability of the pet stores to consumers," Kupchick said in an interview in the Capitol Wednesday morning. "They now have to pay, instead of $500, they have to pay up to the purchase price of the dog and veterinarian costs. They will now, instead of receiving warnings from the state Department of Agriculture, will actually receive real tickets for not being in compliance with current state law about posting information."
Pet shops would also have to display information on all their breeders and would be banned from buying puppies from unlicensed breeders or breeders with more than one serious violation or three lower-level violations. The shops would also be required to have proof that veterinarians are checking dogs and cats twice a month.
"I can't tell you how many representatives from both sides of the aisle came up to me over the last week saying they were getting flooded with emails from their constituents sayin,g `What's going on with that puppy bill? We want it passed,' " said Kupchick, who worked closely with Senate Minority Leader John McKinney, R-Fairfield, and Sen. Bob Duff, R-Norwalk, on the issue over the last year.
"Bringing it up every year, you know, talking about it, I think it brought a lot of awareness to the general public," said Kupchick, who co-chaired a legislative task force with Duff on the issue. "Did we get a ban on them? No, we didn't, but I think the awareness factor is important. People will think a second time before purchasing an animal from a pet store and they'll try to go after the rescues and the local breeders. Because, frankly, every time you buy a dog in a pet store, you're contributing to the inhumane treatment of a domestic animal for profit. This industry makes a huge amount of money off these puppies, and there has been no accountability."

Mc2 Aaron Chase / US Navy
The Los Angeles-class fast attack submarine USS Montpelier (SSN 765) returns to Naval Station Norfolk recently after a routine six-month deployment.
Updated at 9:24 a.m. ET: A U.S. Navy nuclear submarine and an Aegis cruiser collided during routine training off the U.S. East Coast on Saturday afternoon.
US Navy
The USS San Jacinto
No one aboard either the USS Montpelier or the USS San Jacinto was injured, Pentagon officials told NBC News. Both vessels continued to operate under their own power.
The Montpelier is a nuclear-powered Los Angeles-class fast attack sub launched in 1991. The San Jacinto is an Aegis-class missile cruiser commissioned in 1988.
"We have had circumstances where Navy vessels have collided at sea in the past, but they're fairly rare as to how often they do take place," Lt. Cmdr. Brian Badura of the Fleet Forces Command told The Associated Press.
"If we do have an incident that does take place, there are folks that swing into action ... to help us make a better, more conclusive explanation of exactly what happened," Badura added.
The Navy said in a news release that "overall damage to both ships is being evaluated," and that the sub's propulsion plant was "unaffected by the collision."

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Wednesday warned against a rush to judgment that Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl should be punished rather than welcomed home after nearly five years in Taliban captivity.
"We don't do that in the United States," Hagel said of critics that include former members of Bergdahl's unit who have called Bergdahl a deserter after he walked away from his outpost in Afghanistan's Paktika province on June 30, 2009.
An Army Article 15-6 investigation of how Bergdahl went missing concluded in 2010 that he voluntarily left his unit and was later captured by the Taliban, according to the Associated Press. However, Hagel urged caution pending another Army review.
"Until we get the facts, until we have a review of all the circumstances, it is not in the interest of anyone and certainly I think a bit unfair to Sgt. Bergdahl's family and to him to presume anything," Hagel said in Belgium, where he met with NATO defense ministers.
"We rely on facts," Hagel said in echoing the statement Tuesday by Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that the 28-year-old Bergdahl was "innocent until proven guilty."
"Let's get the facts," Hagel said. "But let's first focus on getting Sgt. Bergdahl well, getting his health back, getting him reunited with his family."
Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army's chief of staff, supported Hagel in calling for caution in judging Bergdahl.
"Now that Sgt. Bergdahl is back and under our control, first and foremost we must ensure his health is taken care of and he is properly re-integrated," Odierno said in a statement.
"At the appropriate time, we will conduct a thorough, transparent and complete review of the circumstances surrounding his capture," Odierno said.
The review could possibly lead to charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, military law experts said, despite the potential reluctance to pursue a case against a soldier held prisoner for nearly five years.
Should a case be pursued, the most likely charge would be Absence Without Leave under Article 86 of the UCMJ, said Gary Solis, a retired Marine colonel and former Judge Advocate General.
From his reading of the facts, "there's enough evidence of intent" to support a charge under Article 86, but not enough to charge him under Article 85 for desertion.
Article 85 requires proof of an intent to remain away permanently, and "desertion would be just about impossible to prove" in the case of Bergdahl, Solis said.
Article 86 states in part that "any member of the armed forces who, without authority absents himself or remains absent from his unit, organization, or place of duty at which he is required to be at the time prescribed, shall be punished as a court-martial may direct."
Upon conviction, the maximum punishment for a violation of Article 86 would be dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, reduction to the lowest enlisted grade, and confinement for one year.
Both Solis and Michael Noone, a Catholic University law professor and military law specialist, said any potential case against Bergdahl could be compromised by how he has been treated since his release.
Much like civilians, service members under suspicion must be told of their rights to counsel and to remain silent.
"They should have told him that when he got on the helicopter," Solis said.
Bergdahl has been undergoing treatment, psychological evaluation and debriefings by intelligence officers at the Landstuhl Medical Center in Germany since his release last Saturday in exchange for five top-ranking Taliban prisoners who were being held at the Guantanamo Naval Base.
Bergdahl has not been permitted to speak with his parents since arriving at Landstuhl. It was unclear whether he had been advised of his rights or whether he or his parents had asked for a lawyer.
"Not to my knowledge," said Army Col. Steve Warren, a Pentagon spokesman.
Noone said "I was just stunned" at the near euphoria in the Obama administation's initial statements on Bergdahl's release. "They had reason to believe he was a deserter from the beginning. There were good grounds for believing the guy committed a serious offense," Noone said.
"There seems to be a policy judgment here that the administration wants to treat him as a POW and nothing more than that,' Noone said.
However, Hagel said "Bergdahl is a member of the United States armed forces. The United States of America has, and always will have, responsibility for getting its soldiers back. Other questions and facts regarding Sgt. Bergdahl will be dealt with at a later time."

When should you hire the Best Lawyers For Auto Accidents in Key West?
Auto Accident lawyers help with accidents that happen every day in Key West and across Florida – even to the safest drivers. Right now, the insurance company is building their case against you. In Monroe County, car accidents result from a number of common factors: speeding, texting and cell phone usage, careless driving, reckless driving, negligence, failing to obey traffic signals, drugs, alcohol, Defective Products, and other factors. When you're the victim of a car accident, the effects can be life-altering. Since 2003, the IRPA provided property title services and car accident lawyers. We have represented thousands of clients in their car accident personal injury claims. But as you have already discovered, the insurance companies don't always make it easy. It is crucial to find some source of automobile insurance to compensate a car accident victim in order to have a successful recovery. Car accident claims can be complex and involve numerous parties, from the other driver to insurance agents to defense attorneys.
How does a car accident settlement in Key West, Florida work?
Unlike most car accident attorneys, the IRPA Law assists with ALL areas of compensation, including property damage to your vehicle. You've seen the ads on television telling you to call an injury attorney if you've been injured in an accident and not to wait or you may lose your right to sue. The Insurance Research Council's study showed that injury victims who have a lawyer receive on average 3.5x more money from insurance than those who did not have a lawyer. Studies have shown that auto accident victims recover more in damages when represented by an attorney than when they attempt to deal with an auto insurance company on their own. When you've been hurt in an accident, you need Auto Accident attorneys, someone who has helped victims like you for more than 10 years. Let our attorneys help you get the money and support you deserve.
How long does it take to get a settlement from a car accident in Key West?
If you retain legal representation, your attorney will examine each aspect of your auto accident lawsuit in order to build a strong case, while helping you navigate the challenging adjustment to the harm and losses you have suffered. Both our Key West 33042 car accident lawyers and Monroe County car accident attorneys help our clients resolve their property damage claim. You have every right to get answers to these questions and be compensated for the careless actions of others. Failure to file a lawsuit by the end of the statute of limitations may result in the ability to recover being forever lost. While there are limits to when a government body may be sued, your lawyers for car accidents can analyze the circumstances that led to your injuries and determine which parties may be liable and how to proceed. As your car accident attorney, we will guide you through every step required to bring your case to the most favorable conclusion possible.

Can you negotiate an insurance settlement?
The road to recovery starts by contacting the best car accident attorneys who will protect your rights, seek the compensation you deserve and ultimately help to lift your burdens. Whether you need help getting money for medical bills and car repairs, or you need someone in Florida to step in and deal with the insurance company. Medical bills and other resulting expenses can be a huge burden on you and those you care about. Your injuries, whether temporary or permanent, could prevent you from working in the field of your expertise now and in the future.
In addition to your mental and emotional anguish, we'll make sure they are well aware of any other inconveniences and financial hardship you might have suffered by:
- Thoroughly investigating your accident.
- Closely looking at all insurance policies involved in your case.
- Aggressively negotiating with the auto insurance company.
- Resolving any health care or other liens attached to your recovery.
- Consulting with experts from a variety of fields, including accident reconstruction, mechanical engineering, and medical care.
- Ensuring all documents are filed in a timely manner.
- Presenting a persuasive case on your behalf in court.
The Lawyers For Automobile Accidents will take into account your current and future medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses, so you get the compensation you need to cover the true costs of your accident. The IRPA car accident lawyers have helped client's who were injured in many different ways. Additionally, an attorney in Key West can retrieve all medical records and all medical bills.

Stretchy Safety
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great net and I really like the number of hooks it has on it for securing gear down. It works perfectly with the Thule Canyon XT, with the hooks clipping onto the bars even. Take a bit to get un-tangled when it is left in a ball but nothing to bad.
Works well.
Works as expected. Somewhat hard to untangle if left in a ball.
Must have if you have a loadwarrior.
A must have!
Keeps stuff from coming out...easy to use...durable
Simple yet...
OK, they do the job as intended, but if you do not store the net properly it turns into a spider web of tangled confusion.
The cord is nice and thick, the hooks are strong. The net will suffer UV damage over time, so be aware as the years go on. Although they do stretch, you are still somewhat limited to smaller items.
No question. It's a must have and it's superb...
If you bought the load warrior then the stretch net is a must have. The rope is much more thick and durable than the picture suggests. The hooks click in place ensuring that gear stays put. Agree with another reviewer that it can get a bit tangled when its off but nonetheless it's a must have addition to the load warrior.
If you get the basket, you cant go without this
Thick, quality rope and plastic hooks keep your stuff in place...WELL. I was stoked when I got it and found out it was stretchy. Your stuff isn't going anywhere. The only bad thing I can say about this is what a huge mess it is when it gets all tangled up
Load Warrior Stretch Net
This is the single best "tie-down" piece of equipment out there. No need to mess with knots or single bungees. Will probably buy a second one just to help tie down stuff INSIDE the car's trunk.
Got the net and the basket about a year ago. Great items, keeps lots of stuff snug. Havent had any problem with anything becoming air borne even at high speed or bumping around off road.
Very durable.
You've gotta get this!
This made life sooo much easier. Better than bungee cords! The unique clips they designed snap over the bars very easily and have a great little outside hook that is easy to grasp when taking the net off. 100% satisfied!
Will this net fit my Nissan Xterrra's roof...
Will this net fit my Nissan Xterrra's roof front basket?
this is meant for the Yakima Loadwarrior which is 44"x 39"x 6.5" so if your Nissan is the same size, then I would say go for it!

Control your PC, with a lemon wedge
Or a sock, or a pen, or an armchair...
Gaming execs may think the future of consoles lies in unique controller designs, but one firm is trying to get PC gamers to control games with everything from plastic bottles to Windows user guide booklets.
Can't see the video? Download Flash Player from Adobe.com
Cam-Trax Technologies claims to have developed a "unique patented software solution" that can track any object in real-time with reliability and precision. Although very little has been said about how the software actually works, the firm has stated that all the tracking is done through a web cam.
Cam-Trax claims its software can turn any object into a PC game controller
In a promotional video, gamers are shown holding all sorts of various objects in front of a web cam, including what looks like a lump of wood. Cam-Trax's software appears to quickly map the size and shape of each object, before allowing them to be used to control on-screen games.
Unfortunately, the software isn't available to purchase yet.

"suckered"...... not really. Your dealer is just following normal practices. All funding sources will replace a chair every 6 years. He is probably wanting the sale and trying to get you a new chair.

The urologist sid I have a couple of things that would make the surgery more complex than normal. He suggested a couple alternatives to try, saving surgery for a last resort.
Step 1 will be 6/12 when I consult my orologist. I'll keep you posted.
I work with insurance providers in Iowa, I am not an agent but do research for a few of them in my area. Let me know if I can help you in any way. The insurance companies are really screwed up. There are different rules in different counties in even the states so I am not surprised they are messing with you. Sometime it just requires enough pestering them or getting to the right person. Good luck

Kronish, Lieb, Weiner, and Hellman LLP
Extent: 4.5 linear feet (about 930 items)
On July 11, 1984, William Foley, Legislative Affairs Officer of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts ("Administrative Office"), issued a memorandum stating that the Administrative Office would not pay bankruptcy judges because, in its opinion, Congress had acted unlawfully by awarding retroactive terms of office to the normally presidentially-appointed bankruptcy judges. In response, on July 13, 1984, four bankruptcy judges sued Foley and the Administrative Office for abuse of power. The case became commonly known as Lundin v. Foley. The law firm of Kronish, Lieb, Shainswit, Weiner and Hellman (later, Kronish, Lieb, Weiner and Hellman) represented the bankruptcy judges. Richard Lieb served as the primary attorney on the case. In 1988 the court issued a summary judgment on the grounds that the explicit reason for the suit (i.e. the refusal of Foley to pay the judges) had been resolved. However, when Foley issued his original memorandum, parties with an interest in other bankruptcy cases called for a dismissal of their cases or rulings on the grounds that the judges were not lawfully appointed. The bankruptcy judges in the original suit intervened in these cases on behalf of the presiding bankruptcy judges and, more importantly, the constituionality of the bankruptcy judge system as a whole. In each case, all of the motions were denied, thereby securing the bankruptcy judges a clear, unqualified victory. Following the court's decision, the judges sought reimbursement for its attorney fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, which allows for plaintiffs who win a case against the government to be compensated for court costs. The Administrative Office refused to reimburse the judges, arguing that the Equal Access to Justice Act only covers suits against the Executive Branch, an argument which was upheld by the courts in the original ruling. The judges appealed and in 1992, the court ruled in favor of them for Lundin v. Foley. However, the judges were denied their request to recover fees for the related cases. The collection, 1984-1994, includes correspondence, clippings, photocopies of cases compiled in the course of research, notes, court documents, and other materials regarding the cases for which Kronish, Lieb represented bankruptcy judges in their lawsuit against the Administrative Office of the United States Courts.

Switch Stainless Steel AUTOSPOUT Insulated Water Bottle is rated out of 5 by 15.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Geoffrey from Great design, works well for me I bought this to use on the golf course when it gets really hot outside. It keeps my drink really cold, even when stuffed inside my hot golf bag for hours. The spout works just fine. Other reviewers complained about it being hard to drink from the bottle. Understand that there is no straw, so you have to tilt the bottle up to "pour" the liquid into your mouth. There is a button you must push to open the spout which releases the liquid. While the button is pressed, the container is properly aspirated and liquid flows very freely. The cap is well designed for functional use and for easy cleaning. There is a tab in the cap that when pushed disengages the mouth piece stopper, which makes the whole thing easier to clean. The mouth piece easily snaps back into place. I did not have any of the problems noted by other reviewers. However, I have not really used the handle, so I can't speak to how durable that part is.

Rated 1 out of 5 by traceynola from Leaks constantly It keeps drinks cold. Exterior seems very rugged. Nice looking. However, it's completely unusable for me for camping (what I wanted it for) or travel as it leaks EVERY SINGLE TIME it is not upright. FROM DAY ONE. So, while it may be ok for someone who wants to just use in their office or home, it isn't a bottle you can throw in your purse, backpack, etc and you still have to worry about accidentally knocking it over and getting stuff wet. Not the easiest to drink out of either. Nice looking bottle but there are so many better options out there.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Betsylud from a little disappointed I've had mine for 7 months. Sometimes it is too hard to suck the water and sometimes I get all air. It also leaks all the time when in my bag. The handle lost a screw in just a few days. It holds a perfect amount and keeps it really cold but it's discouraging to pay this much and have such issues. I tried to buy another bc I like everything about it as I said except for the issues.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Amarand from Bottle keeps water cold - handle keeps breaking. We're on our third bottle in two weeks. Our son has gone to camp every every year for the past three years, and has brought an inexpensive water bottle (as recommended). These cheap water bottles lasted through the entire camp season, and we'd usually just toss them, and get a new one as needed the next year. This year, we decided to get something "a little more durable" and sprung for this insulated water bottle. The metal part of the bottle itself is well-designed, although I can see it taking dents. It certainly holds the contents cold, as we had ice-water in there on a Friday morning, and it was still super cold when pouring it out on Monday. Having said that, the top plastic part of the bottle is a less than ideal design. 1) The handle has broken, in the same place, two times. We bought the bottle at our local retail store, and they were happy to replace the bottle each time, but I'm concerned that this bottle is not going to last an entire ten-week term of camp. Sad. 2) The spout is really hard to drink through. I'm not sure if it's because of poor design, or just a bad batch, but you're sucking against the vacuum of the bottle, and you'd think Coleman would have engineers that could understand a basic concept of leaving an additional hole for air to escape during the drinking process. Every coffee cup you get has this hole. It's basic physics. 3) For the price we paid, I would expect a better-designed top. 4) There's an "indentation" in the metal near the top of the bottle, and you'd think this would be for an alternate securing method (like a strap or something), but the Coleman representative I spoke with did not know of anything like this. So, if you're a careful adult, maybe securing this in a backpack, or drinking water at your desk, this is probably an okay value. Otherwise, I would highly NOT recommend this for camping if you intend on using the handle (it breaks too easily), or drinking water from the built-in spout (you're fighting against the vacuum of bad design).

Rated 2 out of 5 by Jeffindy from Hard to suck through straw This bottle is extremely hard to suck the contents up through the straw. Since it is vacuum sealed, it makes drinking like sucking on a milkshake. Even when you get some contents through the straw it is not enough to quench your thirst. I removed the straw and it works decently however it makes a dolphin noise.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Mshellwell from I should have read reviews first! A local store had these on clearance so I was excited to grab it up on the great price. Now I see why they were on clearance; it makes a lot of squeaking noise while trying to suck the liquid up the straw. Steer clear from this model. The other model is my very, very favorite!
Date published: 2019-02-12
Rated 1 out of 5 by Nope from No suction Where the straw connects to the lid is not air tight, so half of what is sucked through the straw is air bubbles. It's made so there are notches on the side of the straw and the bottle where they connect that keep it from being twisted tighter. Very poorly designed.
Date published: 2018-04-22
Rated 3 out of 5 by Ijh1 from I like it but it has issues. Water bottle keeps liquids cold very well, however the straw doesn't stay airtight, so after you insert your ice and water you have retighten the straw...bad design. If I bought this I would return, but it was free so no money lost for me. I Would not buy unless they change the design. Other then that it's ok..

Aries March 21 – April 19
Money news has uplifting potential and business affairs seem to be in a good place. However, it helps to research your options on Wednesday, when you could miss the best deal or misread someone's signals. As Mercury rewinds from Saturday, the coming weeks could be ripe for electronic malfunctions and unexpected setbacks on the home front. However, it's just as likely that you can resolve an issue that's been ongoing for some time. There's the potential for a lucrative deal to show up on Sunday.
Taurus April 20 – May 20
Though you naturally tend to be sensitive to the feelings of others, Taurus, today you might be so in touch with the needs and desires of those around you that you sense what they want even before they know it. Spiritual, emotional, or psychological insights might come to you throughout the day. You could even have some prophetic dreams. Write down whatever seems particularly significant. You'll want to remember it later.
Gemini May 21 – June 21
Sensual feelings make you eager to please others, particularly as a partner's support may be important this week. Meanwhile, as Mercury regresses in your personal financial sector, this may be a sign that it's time to review your options. Consider consolidating and reorganizing debts to avoid stress and increase earning potential. Later in the week you may find that misdirected energy could upset a friendship. Exchange words of encouragement and peace instead. If you're feeling generous, treat someone special to a lovely dinner.
Cancer June 22 – July 22
A new project may get the stamp of success, as early news concerning it seems encouraging and promising. If you have a new idea to sell, now is the time to promote it, as positive influences hint that friends and key people in your life may be willing to support you. Concerning matters on the home front, you may feel like hiding your feelings, particularly if personal matters are dragging you down. However, with a heart-to-heart discussion, much of this could be resolved sooner rather than later.
Leo July 23 – August 22
You may have an intuitive hunch regarding a business idea, but don't rush to complete it before checking the details. Another reason to delay signing deals or contracts is Mercury retrograde, which could coincide with delays and confusion. If holding back isn't possible, be prepared for changes. However, these could work in your favor. Later, a romantic opportunity may show up in the professional or work realm. This could be a passionate interaction, so be sure you want to proceed before you make a first move.
Virgo August 23 – September 22
A number of powerful events could increase the level of love and positive energy in your home, Virgo. Visitors with a spiritual or metaphysical focus could bring some new and exciting information. Good news that you never expected could raise everyone's spirits. A meeting with a humanitarian or spiritual purpose might take place. Whatever it is, expect your home to buzz with great vibes. Enjoy
Libra September 23 – October 22
You could read too much into something this week, especially if it seems to promise more than is actually there. Take your time before making a decision, especially if you're about to spend a lot of money. Friday encourages social options with a chance of an exciting meeting. Someone may impress you enough for you to want to know more. Mercury rewinds in your career zone, so you could experience one or two setbacks to a chosen goal. But biding your time could be beneficial at this stage.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
A secret could unravel this week, but only if you want it to. You may think that by sharing your problem you not only have a better chance to resolve it but might also feel less burdened. Chatting with a trusted pal might bring relief as well as give you the confidence to share in other ways. Feelings may run deep where relationships are concerned, as a powerful lineup enhances the passion and commitment in a relationship. Whether this is romantic or business oriented, the interaction could be productive.
Sagittarius November 22 – December 21
Relationships show extra sparkle, with the potential for an exciting love adventure showing up. If things have been a bit dull in this department, you might want to sprinkle a little stardust and head out for some great entertainment. Starting Saturday, Mercury regresses in Cancer, which is your sector of shared resources. You might be better off delaying a loan or mortgage application. Wait until this phase has finished. If you don't have any leeway, expect a few delays and perhaps a change of plan.
Capricorn December 22 – January 19
Be careful of mixed signals, both on Wednesday and from Saturday, when Mercury goes retrograde. Business or romantic relationships could be couched in mystery or mired in confusion. Be sure you know what you're getting into before you commit to anything. But passion can flourish so long as you take things one step at a time. Meanwhile, a focus on lifestyle can be useful for sorting out your priorities regarding health and work issues. Knowing what you want could be crucial to success.
Aquarius January 20 – February 18
With Mars now forging ahead in your travel and adventure sector, thoughts of faraway places and exotic climes may fill your head. However, you might want to consider a journey of the mind as you explore a new subject, learn a skill, or earn a qualification. Anything that expands your horizons can bring bigger opportunities down the line. Mercury rewinds in your lifestyle sector, so check that your antivirus software is up to date and keep an eye on important documents and files in case they disappear.
Pisces February 19 – March 20
The saying that true love never did run smooth might have been spoken during a Mercury retrograde period, like the one starting this week. As it also occurs in your romance sector, you might need to take things in stride over the next three weeks or so. A passionate influence might entice you to overcome your nerves and commit to a date anyway. There is lots of fun to be had despite any unexpected events that could test your resolve.

Shotgun Leading
Leading means shooting ahead of the moving target. Leading is necessary when shooting at any moving target. If you were to shoot directly at a moving target, by the time the shot reaches the spot, the target will have already passed by. With correct leading, the shot and the moving target will reach the same spot at the same time.

No home charging; opinions please
No home charging; opinions please
With the 85kWh battery,you could easily go all week without charging, so I think it would be perfectly doable. If you had charging at work, I would say you wouldn't even have to worry about moving (someone has a LEAF and no charger at home, relying only on charging at work and public chargers and hasn't had a problem).
Go for it. I've had no problems charging at work with a similar commute. The recommendation to leave the car plugged in all night is much less necessary if your keeping it 75+ % charged.
The standard charge, which is recommended for daily charging, goes to about 90%. The max-range charge fills the battery up completely, but degrades the battery slightly quicker so they only recommend doing that if you actually need the full range.
My $.02 JUST GET THE CAR!! worry about the rest later! cheers and happy "gas free" motoring!
Keep in mind that most of the comments on this board come from people that would gladly pedal a stationary bike if necessary to generate electricity for their car ;)
I wasn't able to get a 240V outlet installed for weeks after I received my car. My commute is 20 miles each way, and I was able to manage some side trips during the day and still recharge using my 110V plug in the garage. I had to top off the remaining charge with some extended charging on Saturday.
It sounds like you may not have a charger near work either? If you have a way to charge while at work (even 110) I would say that you're fine. Even at 3 miles/hr you would recharge your commute during the work day. Otherwise it could be a problem. Public chargers often only charge about 15 miles per hour, so even though you could only charge once a week, you would need 5 hours at a public charger each week, which might not be convenient.
I agree, if there are chargers available at work you shouldn't have any problem. I wouldn't rely solely on 110v though. You will almost certainly be driving a lot more miles than you do now (it's just so much fun! and everyone wants a ride), especially in the first few weeks.
Sounds to me like there is a viable business model in here somewhere, sometime. City dwellers could be a large market for evs, but they often park on the street, or rent a space, or pay a fee for a garage. So how about building a charge garage and rent space? Or concierge charging (pick up the car, charge it, bring it back), or have truck will charge? Just sayin'.
I'm in the EXACT same situation! I'm moving in August and this is exactly the thread I needed. I commute about 45mi each way, but we have charging station at my work. I intend to plug in during my work day and survive off of other public stations on weekends.
I was wondering: If you hook into a Blink charger and you're battery is ready within a couple hours, does Blink continue to charger the hourly rate if you leave it plugged in? I work 10hr days, and I'd love to just leave it out there on the charger while I'm at work so it can stay plugged in as much as possible. But on the other hand, $10/day adds up a lot faster than $2/day.
Anybody already had this experience?
We, too, are in pretty much the same situation. Our apartment's property management isn't too keen on getting one installed, even after we told them that we will foot the bill. Thankfully, there is a public charger close-by, less than 10 minute walk, and we plan on using it once a week, overnight. We don't have our car yet so, can't say how the experience will be.
Of course, we will keep asking the management every now-and-then whether they changed their minds.
~ Prash.
If ou have a charging station near work, you are good to go. Might create some delays with long road trips (having to stop a bit sooner), but I wouldn't sweat it.
Parking 10 hours at a charging station is like parking at a gas pump and getting on a bus to go to work. We as EV owners get outraged when ev chargers get iced. We as EV owners have an obligation to our fellows to move our cars after we have sufficient charge. We are coming up on a very severe shortage of ev charging spots very soon once these catch on.
Charge it, then move it.
jbunn: That is my worry at airports as well... because folks will not be able to move their cars once they are charged.
I totally understand that. Right now they all pretty much go unused. I've only seen a car plugged into one one time since they were installed. I'm really just curious about how the charging ($) works. Even if my car finished charging and I was in a meeting or something, would I get charged for an extra hour if it took me that long to get back out and unplug it?
ALSET, I am in the same boat as you. Fortunately I have free access to ChargePoint level 2 chargers at work, and take full advantage of them. But on the weekends, I've tracked down a few level 2 charging options that I can leave my Model S plugged in to overnight. One other interesting thing that come about is I now find myself going out more during the weekends to places that have charging options close by. And it has been fun to discover/rediscover places to go. I am still pushing the apt. complex owners to install a 14-50 socket, as it could become an amenity and selling point for the property. And if you are getting the 85kWh battery, you'll have more flexibility.
In CA I seem to recall that at least for condos, they can not restrict installation of charging stations, though how many is not clear, as well as who pays. Any one else know more about this?
As has been pointed out, having charge stations is a selling point for any place people must park- hotels, restaurants, parks, stores, etc.
The draw to stations will only grow over time as more evs and plug-ins are out there.
We need to continue to ask for them and be clear we will patronize facilities that have them and pass on those that don't.
Having a car without a charger at home may be "doable" but, I would definitely inquire about whether leaving the car unplugged and outside overnight routinely could take a greater toll on the longevity or long term performance of the battery. If the answer were affirmative, then I would want to know to what degree the batteries would be impacted. I would definitely ask Tesla about your specific situation. I wouldn't be quite as concerned if I were in a very mild climate. I would definitely be asking lots of questions if I lived in a climate that had occasional high and low temperature extremes. It seems as if the batteries may be more heavily taxed if they are maintaining themselves all the time instead of being plugged in routinely.
I could be wrong though, and this may have already been taken into consideration when estimating the life and performance of the battery. Still, I try to keep my car plugged in whenever there is an opportunity presented.
If you haven't done so already, check out whether someone in the neighborhood has a garage they are willing to rent out. Even if it had only a 110 outlet, it might meet your needs.
@ALSET - every situation is different but putting in a NEMA 14-50 plug in a garage is likely in the range of $1000-$2000. Depends on cost of permits, the distance from the sub-panel, and any upgrade to the electrical service if insufficient to handle the greater load.
@Brad - the Model S disconnects the J1772 pilot signal when charging is complete, so Blink thinks it has been unplugged. Of course, someone else may come along and be unable to use the charger (even though the cable can be disconnected from the J1772 adapter, there may not be a parking space and they may not want to unhook your car).
@ALSET - if you had a garage and the distance to the breaker panel wasn't too far, it wouldn't be much. However, if this is curb-side, they would probably have to run conduit and install a pedestal, so my guess would be $2k on the low side.
@Captain_Zap - this past weekend I was out of town and I charged at the hotel charger the night I got there and the night before I drove back. Other than that, I left it unplugged and it was pretty cold (~20F). It only lost a few miles of range each night (I have 4.1 with sleep mode enabled), and the center console seemed to take longer to boot up but maybe that is just impatience to turn the heat on :). Other than that, I didn't notice anything.
I would recommend as a possible alternative to your apartment that you find a nearby business (with a safe parking lot) that might want to attract EV driving customers. You could offer to install an EV charger with the agreement that you'd use it at night and their customers could use it during the day.
Most businesses won't be interested but you only need one to succeed.
If it comes for free or nearly so, and will attract customers, a smart business will be open to it.
I essentially did this with the Harris Ranch charging station where I wanted charging halfway between LA and SJ. I donated the charging station and Harris Ranch installed it at their place.
You might look into saving money by donating your contribution (money or a charger) to a charity (possibly http://adoptacharger.org/ or the electric automobile association at http://www.electricauto.org/?page=Donations) to install the charging station so you might actually get a tax deduction. I believe that if you do the legwork on the site and donate the money, either organization will help with installing the charging station. These folks will want to install a J-1772 so all EVs can use it but the Model S can use J-1772 just fine.
Put in the max power version!
Smart! Very smart! And congratulations on your success at Harris Ranch. Do you have any inside info on expansion of the SC unit count there?
Same situation here in Chicago. I walk to work - so when I need a charge, will head a block away to Whole Foods - most have 240V chargers. And yes, I ride my bike a lot - don't own a ICE auto.... Just hit the finalize button so let's make this happen!
@Brian H, I was at the Tejon Ranch SC station on Tuesday and the electrician was out there fixing and enabling additional chargers. I spoke to him about the situation at Harris Ranch (there being only one SC at that location). He said he "personally" will be starting the Harris Ranch installation in a few weeks. There will be 10 bays at that location once they are completed. Estimate time to complete is early May.
@ALSET, I don't normally charge at home. I do most of my charging at work on either NEMA 14-50 or Blink chargers. I drive 40 miles round trip home/work every day. This has not been a problem for me. In the 3 months that I've owned my Model S, I've probably charged at home only about 10 times - even though I have 110V in the garage and NEMA 14-50 in the driveway.
I also just posted my experience driving from Northern California to Southern California last weekend. I drove many miles around Southern California without charging (over a 2 day period). The range of the 85KWHr battery is a definite must have though.
@ jat
I was wondering if it would reduce the life or capacity of the battery over the long term. (i.e. 5-10 years down the road)

When you're in a coastal tourist town, chances are that the streets are overrun with large amphibious trucks transporting a bunch of rubes to see the sights.
But just how good is the forward visibility out of those bad boys? Probably not too good.
Looks like this one, aptly named the "Harbour Hopper," decided to mount a defenseless Buick LaCrosse. As you may have guessed from the extra 'u' in Harbour, this occurred in Canada, not the US of A.
We guess something about those rear haunches of the LaCrosse really got a rise out of the Harbour Hopper. Appearances suggest that this act wasn't consensual, so there may be some legal issues for the Harbour Hopper very soon.
Also, we doubt that a car named LaCrosse, which is slang for masturbation in Canada, would derive pleasure from having another car on top of it.
(Hat Tip to @Tim_Bousquet!)

Giles Corey – Blackest Bile (Enemies List)
I'm a terrible person. I've loved this record from day one (and I mean love) which was almost 2 years ago. I got pumped for the video for "A Sleeping Heart" but never followed up with a full review. Plus, I walk past the site where Giles Corey got crushed on my way to work every day (REPRESENT). Anyway, here's what I should have written long ago.
Giles Corey is Dan Barrett's solo project, the dude behind Enemies List and half of the immortal Have A Nice Life, this is his Dust Bowl era spectral folk side where he takes on death, the occult, suicide, depression, and supreme heartache, turning terrible shit into the most powerful & amazing music ever. Depressing as fuck lyrics chanted & crooned & shouted like "I'm going to kill myself," "I want to feel like I feel when I'm asleep," and "I open up my heart and let it all in and it kills all my love and hope for everyone," bleeding through everything, reaching soul wrenching depths, rooted in bittersweetness, even evoking some mid century pop/doo wop sounds, his voice the richest imaginable, so pure & raw, layered a hundred times over surrounding himself in a choir of his own nightmares, armed mostly with just an acoustic guitar and percussion that sounds like an oil drum being pounded in an empty warehouse, kicking the hushed intimacy into enormous bombastic anthems, sometimes bringing in some brass for an extra old timeyness, but always perfect, every fucking song is as good as it could possibly be, Barrett's song writing is unmatched and inimitable. The original release came in a DVD style case bound by rope to a 150 book filled with a crazy fucking story and lyrics and photos and shit. That's way sold out but for $5 you can still get the download and it includes digital versions of everything except the rope.
There's a super weird noise/drone/wtf record he put out "designed to induce possession states" called Deconstructionist, a second full length set for this year (on vinyl!) and, awesome news for you New Englanders, there's a GC mini-tour coming right up. Three shows, (NY, Boston, & Enemies List HQ), all with Planning For Burial on the lineup, and I'm hosting the Boston show. On Saturday, 2/23 at PA's Lounge with High Aura'd and Ehnahre helping to usher in the new darkness.

Questioning the government's claims about Zazi
It is possible that Najibullah Zazi is in fact an al-Qaeda operative. If that is the case, he should be tried and sentenced in a fair and open process. However, it is equally likely that the FBI has fabricated a flimsy case against him for purely political reasons.
The U.S. government has a long track record of character assassination for political gain. There is no reason to assume that the FBI and the CIA are out of the propaganda business, and the Zazi case has all the earmarks of a classic operation, including a shortage of actual facts and numerous anonymous government sources making statements but providing no evidence.
And what would the government have to gain by loudly announcing that a "terrorist plot" has been discovered? The FBI and their friends at the CIA may wish to distract the public from the possible court cases against government operatives who allegedly violated the law during prisoner interrogations. Perhaps the president wants to appear tough on terror ahead of the upcoming U.N. General Assembly or the G20 meetings in Pittsburgh.

Roberto Napione
Napione is now managing the new Machine Centre of Excellence at SKF, a global team dedicated to world class manufacturing, machine design, machine learning and machine standardisation. Napione has been with SKF since 1992 in various roles, mostly within the automotive segment.
He is based in Airasca, Italy, and enjoys skiing and playing tennis in his spare time.
Roberto says:
"Isaac Asimov said, 'In the end you can't differentiate between a robot and the very best of humans.' A smart robot has a sensor, can learn from its environment and build new capabilities and then share that knowledge with other robots.
The factory of the future will have a very high level of technology, not only robots but things like 3D printing, very fast communication and I would say with use of machines that are totally sensorised, controlled with one global system. But there will also be more attention to the workplace so it will be more attractive to the people.
South Korea is the country that has the highest density of robots, 400 robots for 10 000 employees, Germany around 300 and China is growing, density is low right now but it's growing tremendously. In 2018, 1.4 million robots will be in China.
The unemployment rate is unchanging and if we analyse the trend of robot sales and robot use, we do not see a direct relation with unemployment and robot use."
