Android Central

Welcome to the best UK and European Android Phones as of Feb. 2, 2012. Or you can call them our favorite Android phones. Or the top Android phones. Really, call them whatever you want. Here's what you're getting: Our unabashed, unapologetic and unequivocal list of what we consider to be the best Android smartphones available on the five major UK networks today. For those of you outside the UK, we've also thrown in a rundown of our top five unlocked, international GSM phones.

There are a lot of great Android phones available to tempt European buyers, and unlike the U.S., many phones are available on multiple carriers, giving Euros a bit more freedom when it comes to their choice of device. In any case, join us after  the jump for the complete rundown, or check out the best U.S. and Canadian devices at the link below.

First, let's take a look at what's on offer across the UK's largest mobile networks --

Best phone on O2, Vodafone and Three - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Galaxy Nexus

We’ll make things relatively easy for anyone on these three networks -- O2, Vodafone and Three offer the Samsung Galaxy Nexus subsidized on-contract. In our opinion it’s the best Android phone you can buy, on balance. You’ve got Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich pre-loaded, and a gorgeous HD SuperAMOLED display to boot. And the fact that it’s a Nexus device means that you’ll always be first with software updates.

Specs | Forums | Read our full review

Honorable Mention for O2 - Samsung Galaxy Note

Samsung Galaxy Note

The Galaxy Note is proving to be a surprising hit for Samsung. It’s already shipped well over a million of them worldwide, and North American networks are clamoring to pick up the device. Sure, a 5.3-inch smartphone isn’t for everyone, but the Note brings a few unique tricks to the table, including “S Pen” stylus input, and a 1280x800 HD SuperAMOLED screen. With an update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich due by the end of March, the Note is only going to get better as time goes on.

Specs | Forums | Read our full review

Honorable Mention for Three - Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S

Xperia Arc S

Sony Ericsson’s handsets boast the best cameras of any Android phone, and the past year as seen SE deliver great software support with regular updates, and even a sneak peek at the eventual ICS update. The Arc S has a 8.1MP EXMOR R camera, which delivers great low-light performance, as well as 720p video and 3D panoramic photos. It’s also the fastest of Sony Ericsson’s current crop of phones (though that’ll be changing soon with the launch of the Xperia S), and its unique design makes one of the most attractive Android devices around.

Specs | Forums | Read our full review

Honorable Mention for Vodafone - Samsung Galaxy S II

Galaxy S II

If you’d prefer a slightly smaller device than the Nexus with a better camera, you could do a lot worse than the Samsung Galaxy S II on Vodafone. In terms of raw horsepower and responsiveness, few phones have rivaled the Galaxy S II. TouchWiz 4.0 sees Sammy’s UI layer mature, and deliver useful functionality like video and photo editing. Like all of our recommended smartphones, it’s due an Ice Cream Sandwich update too, which should give the device a new lease of life in the months ahead.

Specs | Forums | Read our full review

Best phone on Orange and T-Mobile UK - HTC Sensation XE

Sensation XE

The Sensation XE is the fastest and most feature-packed device that HTC currently has on the market. You’ve got a speedy a 1.5GHz dual-core CPU, an 8MP camera and Beats Audio functionality built-in. You’ll also find version 3.0 of HTC’s Sense UI, soon to be updated to version 3.5 when the Ice Cream Sandwich update lands.

Specs | Forums | Read our full review

Worth a look: As part of “Everything Everywhere,” Orange and T-Mobile share a very similar Android device line-up. If the Sensation XE doesn’t float your boat, we recommend taking a look at the Galaxy S II or Xperia Ray.

Top Five Unlocked International Android Phones

If you're off contract in Europe, you're free to pick up a GSM phone SIM-free. Slap a SIM of your choice in there, and you're good to go. Here's our rundown of the top five unlocked devices in Europe --

5. HTC Sensation XL

At 4.7 inches, the Senastion XL pushes the boundaries of in terms of pocketability, but if you can get past its size, there's a lot to like -- a vibrant screen, the latest version of Sense and excellent battery life.

4. HTC Sensation XE

The Sensation XL's big brother (sort of), the XE packs more hardware muscle, albeit in a smaller package, for a higher price tag.

3. Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S

Sony Ericsson's fastest and prettiest Android smartphone, with an well-designed UI and one of the best cameras available on any Android device.

2. Samsung Galaxy S II

Samsung's 2011 flagship device is still an outstanding product, with a vivid SuperAMOLED Plus screen, a beastly Exynos CPU and some useful software functionality.

1. Samsung Galaxy Nexus

The number one spot really wasn't going to go to any device other than the current flagship Google Experience device. With the Galaxy Nexus, Samsung and Google succeed in bringing to market a truly outstanding device, and the best Android smartphone money can buy.

The best UK/European Android Phones - As of Feb. 2, 2012

I did not buy a Nexus because I have the superior Samsung Galaxy S II. The recent need to promote the Nexus (read Ice Cream Sandwich) and anything new over the Galaxy S II is petty at best and ultimately futile. I understand constantly discussing an 'old' phone does not generate much interest and can be boring particularly when the trend is to focus on the latest and greatest but let's face facts. Yes it is an old phone and no it does not run ICS but Samsung delivered a winner that no-one has managed to rival. Accept it.

Samsung themselves have rivalled it. While it undoubtedly is an amazing phone, once you have used ICS and a 720p screen EVERYTHING feels like a let down. The S2 wilk get ICS, but it'll never get the screen from the Nexus. It's the best all round device out there. That's why we keep choosing it.

Except for the fact that the GSII performs better than the GNex in every category. With an ICS upgrade it will be a better device hands down and the only thing the GNex will have on it will be its screen.

The Galaxy S2 is a nice phone, don't get me wrong. Spec-wise it may be very similar than the Galaxy Nexus, but the screen is everything on a touch screen phone. It's what you use to interact with EVERY SINGLE feature.

Yes, the Galaxy S2 will get ICS, but the screen will always be not quite as good as on the Galaxy Nexus.

I will take my poor screen but superior everything else. The Nexus has a place for certain people and for those who simply must has the latest bug fix before everyone else. However for the vast majority of consumers (and I include people here) the Nexus is a weak choice. Not only does it not stack up to the Galaxy S II now, screen aside, it will soon be left in the dust by the next wave of smartphones that will have the two advantages of the Nexus in ICS and superior screens but also far superior hardware. The Nexus, for a purported Google flagship phone, does little to further the market and struggles against current devices let alone their imminent replacements.

overwhelmingly what "people" want most out of their phones and complain about most is software support and updates. You say the SGS2 has better specs and that might arguably be true, but in a year from now the SGS2 will be eclipsed just like the Galaxy Nexus; except that the GN will still be doing great with the latest software and best app compatibility. Meanwhile SGS2 owners will be complaining in the comments on Android Central about not getting their updates quickly from Samsung.

I don't mind healthy debate about what people (subjectively) think is the best phone but to flat out say the GN is "a weak choice" is equally as one sided as all the people who love it and say it's hands down better than every other device. It's about options and preferences and Android gives everyone both.

actually the only people who clamor for updates are the people who frequent sites like this. Everyone else chooses a phone to use for two years (or until the break it) and only know there is an update to the phone when it pops up on their screen (let alone what it does), and even half of them dont know what it is so they dismiss it, and later when they realize it installed when they weren't paying attention complain that the phone is "different" now.

had to read out loud this comment by VZWRocks to my bf... talking about the majority of buyers, I have to say that he is right. The number of users who actually care for constant upgrades and flashing custom ROMs might be growing but is still small.

While nexus is offering 316ppi screen (not even the highest out there),
Most of them conveniently forget the fact that sii use super amoled plus, which is non existent on nexus.
They're just trying to comfort themselves with the fact that Sii is still a superior gadget.
Let's see how samsung will apply Ics on it next month.

Apart from de screen de Galaxy was a let down. Look how long de Galaxy s2 remained king and is still competing with de current market, that's a flagship. I honestly think Samsung held back with de Galaxy Nexus because of S3.De Nexus is just not the one to beat if it has to compete with an older phone it shud be flying high and fast, untouchable like de way de S2 was and still is. De only thing that gonna shadow s2s PS de current processors

I decided to buy a phone off contract, and eventually went for the HTC Sensation XE.
This was purely a personal decision based on day to day usability - the Galaxy Nexus is gorgeous, but I don't like a phone you consistently have to use 2 hands to use due to the screen size.
Likewise, the Galaxy SII just felt too insubstantial in my large hands to be a "real" phone!

As I said, personal preference, but no regrets at all. All I am hoping now is HTC don't ruin Ice Cream Sandwich for the Sensation with implementing Sense on it the way they have always done, just because they have always done it that way!

My new Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro is a clearly better alternative, if you not have very bad eyes or huge fingers - because of it's excellent slide out keyboard, amazing 3.7 inch screen and the same system as Arc...

I did compare the colors with help of advanced test patterns and pictures with my friends Samsung Note and mine was slightly better, with deeper and more accurate reds!

It does also have a 3G talk time of 7:21 hours in test, where most "offer" just around 3 to 4 hours...

Then has it in addition HDMI out and it never hangs, at least not since I got mine 6 october 2011

I have a brand new nikon L120 from (I bought it there on the cheapest yet good quality). And I love it. I love android phones too but its not really comforting as a real camera.

A bit disappointed, this article is UK based and really does not have anything to do with the Europe. I live in the Netherlands and think the Galaxy Note is the best Android phone in Europe. It is the first phone I have been happy with in about 3 years.

So never confuse UK and Continental Europe. They are very very different in everything. We even have better coverage here in the Netherlands than in the UK and cheaper rates. And faster Internet. I have 21mbps HSDPA+ connection on my phone. Love it.

I am a very happy N7000 owner, too and like you, love its amazing performance and speed. Although, I have to add that while the Note might be the perfect choice for us, other people would want a smaller phone that they can put into every pocket easily. I think the biggest advantage of Android devices is that you have such a broad range of choices, so many devices with different equipment and coming in so many price categories, too.

HTC Sensation XE

British retailer Phones4U has announced that it'll be the first to carry HTC's new flagship smartphone, the Sensation XE, with a release slated for October 1. Phones4U says it'll have a "lead to market" on the device, which will become the fastest HTC smartphone available when it launches. In related news, Clove, which sells SIM-free smartphones, says it'll stock the Sensation XE from October 7, priced at £492 (~$780).

In addition to everything that made the original Sensation such a great phone, the Sensation XE boasts a slightly faster 1.5GHz CPU, along with Beats Audio support and bundled Beats earphones. Hit up our announcement post from earlier today for all the details.

Phones4U adds that it'll also be carrying an exclusive white version of the original Sensation, which it'll launch alongside the Sensation XE on October 1. The white Sensation will apparently be offered for free on contracts of £31 or more per month, while if it's the Sensation XE you're after, you'll need to spend £36 per month to get the phone for free.

Join us after the jump for more details in the official presser.

• Phones 4u secures lead to market on HTC Sensation XE

• The only retailer to exclusively range the HTC Sensation in white

• Has also secured a significant lead to market on the HTC Windows Phone 7 smartphone, the HTC Radar, in white

14th September 2011: Phones 4u has agreed a partnership with HTC that sees the leading mobile retailer for the youth secure a significant lead to market on the FIRST phone to feature integrated Beats Audio technology.

The new HTC Sensation XE is a result of the strategic partnership between HTC and Beats Electronics, which is set to create a new benchmark for mobile audio. Phones 4u is pleased to not only be able to offer its customers the HTC Sensation XE earlier than everyone else, but is thrilled to be able to offer HTC’s original flagship multimedia device, the HTC Sensation exclusively in white from 1st October.

The HTC Sensation XE is HTC’s first device to launch its Beats proposition since it announced its strategic partnership with Beats Electronics in August of this year. Available with bundled Beats headphones, the HTC Sensation XE is the only smartphone tuned for BeatsAudio, ensuring you can enjoy music or movies with studio-like sound quality.

Scott Hooton, Trading Director at Phones 4u said: “As HTC and Beats work together to create a more advanced mobile audio experience for consumers, Phones 4u are delighted to be partnering with HTC to provide our customers with innovative and groundbreaking new technology that will provide them with unbeatable sound quality on their smartphones, before anyone else. Beats by Dr. Dre is a youthful and exciting brand our core demographic can identify with. With a superior multimedia experience being on the top of our customers’ wish lists, we’re looking forward to a successful launch of the Sensation XE at Phones 4u!”

In addition to the HTC Sensation XE, Phones 4u will be bolstering its range of HTC smartphone offerings as it secures another HTC lead to market on the HTC Radar™ with WindowsÂ® Phone in white. Phones 4u sees Windows OS as a huge opportunity for Q4 and beyond, and will be investing significantly in this category both in store and in training Phones 4u staff on the new operating system. As a result, the HTC Radar will be a hero product for Phones 4u in store from 1st October, where it will feature in hero POS across all stores and its own demo hub across 150 of Phones 4u’s top stores.

“Our customers want the very best and latest in mobile technology, and so its important that we’re able to offer them only the very best smartphone range, the very latest technology and value for money. Our ongoing and successful working relationship with HTC means we’ve been able to add even more great smartphone exclusives to our widest ever range of exclusive white devices we’ll be offering across contract and prepay this quarter, giving Phones 4u a real point of difference as we enter the Christmas period,” said Hooton.

The HTC Sensation XE will be available from Phones 4u stores and online from 1st October free from £36 a month on a choice of networks. The HTC Sensation in white will be available only at Phones 4u from 1st October also, free from £31 a month on a choice of networks. The HTC Radar in white will be available at Phones 4u from October, free from £26 a month on a choice of networks.

HTC Sensation XE UK availability and pricing info emerges

The phone has the same ram, 768 and the interior memory is a total of 4 gigs and out of that the availability for the user is only 1 gig. That is from the spec sheet. That is a total failure if you ask me. That phone needs 1 gig of ram and much ore interior memory if you are going to upgrade the phone. That is a total joke. They throw a new processor and a set of ear buds and throw it back on the market. I will pass.

Already have beats audio on my evo 3d thanks to custom roms only works with headphones seems to add bass and some tint.

The CPU isn't even upgraded. The original sensation under clocked the CPU.

My current Sensation is running at 1.56ghz and has beats in it and I can honestly say its the nicest and fastest mobile device I have ever used.

I had a iPhone 4 and a Motorola Photon before this phone and the sensation outclasses them both.

ps: WERE IS THE KICKSTAND! (it should be standard on every phone)

1.) Open equalizer
2.) Boost bass & upper midrange as much as possible
3.) Print out beats logo and glue it to the back of your phone
4.) Tell people you did an extensive amount of audio engineering

Congratulations you've now done as much (if not more) work than monster and have beats audio in your android phone.

I am more than happy with my regular sensation and the price I am paying, this interests me in no way. I prefer my Sennheisers to beats. I love the red touches though!

Localicious Proving That Some devs Experiencing Less Friction With Android

The app in itself is not ground shattering for sure, but what is interesting is that the company is launching on Android first, with no release date for an iOS launch. A first for the company as a whole, as they have done what most companies out there have been doing. Launch on iOS, then port over to Android. Not this time! Read on for their reasons.

In 2007, Jackson Hole, Wyoming bassist Andy Calder found his musical home with alt-country sensations One Ton Pig. Three albums and thousands of live shows later, The Pig continues to record, tour, and make people smile wherever they go! One Ton Pig’s music demands precision, improvisation, danceable groove, and discretion, often within the same song. Performing with two guitars, mandolin, violin, and three vocalists requires a great deal of listening, but the results are well worth the efforts. Calder’s style has matured as a result of the project, and One Ton Pig only promises to get bigger and heavier!

“Serve the song.”  That’s Andy Calder’s mantra. Simple, respectful, meaningful, and supportive. That’s what makes him a favorite among singer/songwriters. Diverse playing situations, however, occasionally demand different approaches. He gets a LOT more aggressive when he’s pounding the thunder with Jane’s Addiction drummer Stephen Perkins’ Banyan, or creating dance grooves with DJ Logic, or heading into the stratosphere with eccentric hip-hop trumpet ace Willie Waldman.

Calder’s unique ability to adapt has even put him onstage and in the studio with jazz luminary Larry Coryell, Rick Danko (The Band), bluegrass heroes Ronnie and Rob McCoury, Ray White (Frank Zappa), Grammy-nominated mandolinist Matt Flinner, renowned upright bassist Rob Wasserman, and a cast of many others.

This Rocky Mountain bass player is also an accomplished educator. Jackson Hole Rock Camp is a program he co-founded in 2003, and the annual week-long program continues to attract students and instructors from all over the world! Musical heavyweights like Gregg Bissonette, Steve Bailey, Stephen Perkins, Regi Wooten, Chris Duarte, Simon Kirke, Andy Irvine, Carl Verheyen, and many others have been instructors over the years.

Rounding out Calder’s music business profile, he’s a live music/event producer, audio engineer, music booking agent, publicist, and manager. His company, World Famous Productions, handles everything from wedding bands in Jackson Hole to large outdoor festivals with groups like Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Blues Traveler, and many others.

A lifelong experimenter of tone, Andy Calder uses Warwick basses as his sonic platform.  Regardless of the playing situation, his Warwicks have the punch to cut through, yet they maintain the warmth to support the ensemble.  Furthermore, they play beautifully, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that they are visual works of art, too!  Whether it’s long and lonely low notes on a vocal ballad or galloping heavy metal lines, Calder’s Warwick basses handle it perfectly!

Abide: More Than a Mere Word

It is amazing how when a word is translated from one language to another, it loses a large amount of its original meaning and gains an entirely different meaning. The word "abide" is one of those words. See, people don’t really know what this word means and so assume that it is not an important word. However, this word is very important not only to understanding several life changing principles that are found in the Bible, but also for a person’s own private knowledge.

The regular dictionary contains several definitions for the word "abide." These definitions are: to put up with, tolerate; wait patiently for; to withstand; to dwell; to remain in place; and to conform to. These are all good definitions, but in the original usage (Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic), the meaning of the word went much deeper.

There are five different words in the original Greek and Hebrew for the one word (abide) that we have in our language. The first of these words, epimeno, is the strengthened form of another verb, meno, which means "intensive." The word epimeno sometimes indicates perseverance in continuing to do something. The second word, katameno, is a verb that means "constant residence" or "frequent resort." Another word, parameno, means "to continue" and is sometimes used to express confidence in abiding with a person. One really neat word is hupomeno which means "to remain in a place instead of leaving it; to stay behind or persevere." Finally, the word prosmeno is used in several different situations to indicate a persistent loyalty or a continuance in doing something.

In the above paragraph, the root from which all the other verbs come is meno which was defined as meaning "intensive." This is important because it indicates that the verbs that stem from this root have a meaning beyond the face value of the word. A good example of this is when two children in grade school say that they love each other. It doesn’t mean very much to them and they take it at face value. However, if those two children were to grow up and marry, the word love would have much more depth and meaning because the two would more fully comprehend what they were saying.

We use the word abide in our everyday lives, yet don’t fully comprehend what we are saying. When someone says that he will abide by his word, he probably means that he will do what he has said that he would do. This is not the true meaning of the word abide. When we abide in something, we are loyal to it even unto death. When we abide, we remain in a certain place even when the rest of the world has left us behind. To abide means to continue doing whatever is being done even when it is hard and the urge to quit is almost too much. The word abide means to cling to something and have faith in it, even when it seems to have failed. Sometimes "abide" is used with some of the meanings that are in today’s English dictionary, but the above mentioned usages are also a large part of the way this word fits into our language. If the world truly understood the meaning of this awesome word, then I don’t think that people would use is so carelessly.

In conclusion, while it is often misunderstood, the word "abide" has a very rich and deep history and meaning. And understanding this word is essential to understanding many concepts found in the Bible. Also, it is a good word to understand if for no other reason than that it enhances a person’s vocabulary.

The Ferry Boats of Governors Island

The first Governors Island Ferry

circa 1860

The GENERAL OTIS in New York Harbor

circa 1913

The MAJOR GENERAL WILLIAM H. HART, originally christened the JOHN A. LYNCH was built at Mariners Harbor, Staten Island, in 1925, one of sixteen ferries constructed to operate on various East River crossings.

She worked for the city until sold to the Army Quartermaster Corps. in 1940. Renamed the MAJOR GENERAL WILLIAM H. HART, she was used for the route between lower Manhattan and the Army base on Governors Island. The ferry Major General Hart. was sold by the South Street Seaport. The new owners had her towed to Port Reading, NJ and, after some cash flow problems, abandoned her there. She now sits sunk with her car deck awash at that location.

Following provided by Ed Drury: 2/8/02

Here at my pier in Staten Island I have the ferryboat "Private Nicholas Minue" One of the newer Governors Island boats. She is for sale. We have also had the "The Tides" and "The Narrows" here at one time or another. "The Tides" went to Jamestown RI as a motel and then to Boston. She was badly neglected and is in poor shape. She is being sold at auction this month in Boston. The "Narrows" was sold three years ago. She went to Venezuela and is now a barracks vessel for workmen on the Amazon River.

Other ferry boats used during the Army days were the GENERAL HUMPHRIES and the SGT. CORNELIUS H. CHARLTON.

It is interesting to note that the Ferry Terminal on both the Manhattan and Governors Island sides is still referred to as the Barge Office, a reminder that for over 200 years the only means of crossing was by small boats or barges.

Royal Trivia

One of the G.I. ferryboats was used to give Queen Elizabeth II a tour of New York Harbor during her visit ca. 1957 or 1958 had a special windshield made of (reportedly) bulletproof glass or Plexiglas set up on the upper deck just below the pilothouse. After her visit, the glass was removed but the frame stayed in place at least until I left in the fall of 1960.

"It went great! The crew chief was very helpful in walking me through the process to establish expectations, and then at my request he let me tag along with him" during part of the lift. I have a much better understanding of this process now and it's not as scary as people think it is. They did a great job to protect the vegetation around where they did the work, fixed the grade up against the foundation all around the house, and then cleaned up very nicely. The chances that I will use this company again in the future are very high because I will continue to buy rent houses.

-Mitchell S.

"If you have foundation/settlement issues, do not do what I did. I should have gotten a report from a structural engineer ($300-500) before contacting and contracting" with foundation repair companies. Instead, I got bids from 3 different companies that I picked out of the Yellow Pages (Angie's list wasn't really on the radar at that time). Those 3 were probably the worst possible ones I could have randomly picked. They all quoted a higher price than what I found out later was a reasonable, normal amount for that kind of work
was the one that I felt best about at the time. They took them a long time to do the work ( more than a week). I have a feeling that was because they hoped to "justify" the too high dollar cost. The work was rarely supervised by a boss- a variety of workers showed up-it was not a consistent work crew . The work and its results were complicated by the fact that while the holes next to the foundation were dug and left open, a heavy rainstorm caused lots of water to fill the holes and consequently flow into our basement. When the work was finished, May had to return twice to actually truly complete the repairs to their promised standards . And, although the work was finally completed, I absolutely got the feel that I had gotten "screwed". May----Too high a price, so-so work and less than adequate communication during the process. In 2015 I had to do more repairs (4 more Piers). I did it right. Structural Engineer's report (
Seig Engineer, an excellent choice) Used an excellent company (Pier Magic- a reputable company) The 4 pier job was efficiently completed in ONE day.

Crawl Spaces

Homes that aren't built on a slab foundation or basement feature crawl spaces to allow for the necessary access to plumbing, electrical and other home systems.

Foundation Repair

Many homeowners worry about the severity of foundation cracks in the basement.

Foundation Repair, Concrete - Pouring & Repair

Pouring a foundation is the first critical step in building your home, so make sure you know what to look for if you're hiring a custom builder or doing a portion of the work yourself. Here are some foundation basics.

Relying solely on measurements to determine the condition of a foundation often leads to risks incurring further damage to a home, says Granott. (Photo courtesy of Angie's List member Dale W. of Boones Mill, Virginia.)
Foundation Repair

Measuring your foundation for levelness alone is not enough to determine if your foundation needs repair. A foundation expert will evaluate all the factors.

Angie's Answers

Unfortunately this is not something you will easily resolve; and even if you were to win, the amount of time and funds spent will probably exceed the cost of the actual repair.

Each state has different rules on what "as-is" means, but almost all use the term when it comes to realestate sales.  At two years, you are facing a hurdle that any issue could be the result of new conditions, acceptable wear / settlement, etc.  Has there been any changes in the area? (New house built next door, new addition, earthquake, flooding, etc?)

While you may have been given a home warranty with the purchase (do check your sales paperwork to see if there is any warranty and what it covers for how long) the house is sold to you as-is; it is your responsibility to raise concerns prior to taking over the house, so going back two years later is a huge up hill batle.

The home inspector is also going to be found faultless, as their reports almost always have words like "consult with an expert. . ." after each report section and they have disclaimers for missed items, etc. I got certified as a home inspector and was surprised at just how little they actually require you to know to become an inspector. They are really just an extra pair of eyes to help inexpereinced home owners look where most people don't look or go.  You even mention that the repair work was well masked, so you didn't notice it until you began looking for it.  A good inspector might have caught it, but you won't win any court cases proving yours wasn't good enough.

The Seller will claim that any foundation issues were fixed and resolved, which is why they marked "No" on the foundation issue section.  They fixed it; so it was no longer an issue.  If it came back, that is a new issue.  You and I know this is bogus, but to win in court you have to prove intent; and the builder can easily show they thought it was fixed.  Or, they might even be able to claim they were unaware - the repairs were from the previous owner, and were hidden so well HE and YOU didn't notice them.

So the next step is to meet with your home insurance agent.  As I mentioned above, if there have been any enviromental changes (a new house next door could have changed the underground water table flow or pressures, for example) you may be covered.  Even if there are no issues, you still may have a policy that allows for major repairs to be covered after a certian cost threshold, etc.  You'd be surprised at what your home owners insurance covers - find out first; they might have in house or low cost engineers who will do the initial inspection, etc.  They also will provide advice on your home sale; if they think you have a case against the Seller.

Best of luck on this issue.  Make sure any solution you pay for solves the cause (Stress on the wall), and doesn't just fix the results (cracks).

For this type of job, you need plans and specs from an Architectural/Engineering firm before thinking about contractors - and to get a building permit. Ben's method would work and done incrementally could cost well over $100,000 plus as he says, but this not really the most economic way to approach this big a job. A House Mover or Foundation Underpinning specialty company can usually slide your house onto a whole new foundation, or jack it up on steel beams and hold it there while a basement is dug underneath it, without any intermediate piers. The jacking/move cost would probably be on the order of $30-40,000, and a new basement probably about $40-50,000 - rough ballpark, though I have been involved in some 1000-1500SF single story jobs that went for under $70,000 total. I have been involved in a fair number of these type jobs - and the way the numbers come out, if there is room on the property to move the house, it is almost always nearly as cheap or cheaper to build an equivalent square footage (basement plus ground level) addition rather than add a basement under the house, and that way your new footage is half above ground so worth more on resale, plus you do not lose use of the house for a month or two. Second cheapest is usually sliding house to a new foundation, if property is large enough to do this - though house is totally cut off from utilities for a week to three. Most expensive, and usually only done in tight city environments or with full 2 story or higher houses, is adding the foundation in place, though your utility interruptions should be on the order of hours at a time rather than days or weeks. Talk to an architect - I think you will quickly lean towards the addition option rather than adding a basement - it is just too expensive to deepen foundations in most cases, plus you WILL get cracking in the house and possible water and sewer pipe problems in a move/underpinning job, which is not the case with an addition. This become more likely the case since you want to add 8 feet off the back of the home anyway - so why not just enlarge the addition and do it all that way - MUCH simpler, and MUCH less disruption of your life, and you get much higher resale return on your investment.

Foundation Repair reviews in Lakewood

Had a good visit with the engineer. He was very thorough and told us what we needed to fix and what we didn't. Put us at ease by explaining foundation problems are extremely common in the area and that he had seen many worse than ours.
The crew came out on time and were fast, quiet (considering they had to jackhammer), and courteous. They even finished a day ahead of schedule. Follow up was very good. If I had questions or needed paperwork they were quick to get back with me.
- Marc W.

I was very impressed with everything about this company and the work performed. This company was very upfront with all the details on this job and gain my confidence immediately due to the honesty and straight talk used to explain everything. They understood my needs with getting this project done timely. I was in a position to need this project done before very short deadline due to this property was being sold and I needed this to be complete before closing. They not only adjusted their schedule to meet my deadline they completely the project within two days. Once the crew started I can tell you every employee clearly showed work ethic being they all demonstrated that they clearly knew what they were doing. The crew clearly shown there experience and that they were focused on job. Everyone on the job was super polite and all were whiling to talk to me about the project had how it was going. By far the best group of guys I have ever worked with in this type of project. Once the project was completed the whole crew went into clean up mode and I have never seen anything like it. They were extremely detailed in the cleanup of the project which mirrored the detail they put into the actual work. I really can’t say how extremely impressed I was with everyone at the company including all the crew members on the project. I would highly recommend this company and the fact they are part of the WAFRP puts this company far above the competition.
- Robert B.

When an inquiry is made of any company by a potential client/customer, that action alone indicates the problem or concern is enough for the individual to stop whatever they intended to do, research and contact this company. Receiving no response from them to an inquiry as compared to other contacts made in the same industry; reflect directly upon the company's professional standing, responsiveness and quality of services provided.
I definitely shall never contact this company again or recommend them to anyone, other than to share my bad experience. I can understand if they had some type of situation preventing them from responding, yet as a business in this competitive
Lakewood Foundation Repair Specialists Provider Name Locked
, the use of an auto-responder email explaining their circumstances or phone voice mail would be the best way to handle this situation.
I am sorry I received no response as they might have been the company best suited to handle my problems and concerns. Again, they might have an unknown situation preventing them from responding or following up of which I am unaware. I have no way of knowing the answer to that question and this is now a lost opportunity for both of us.
This review is submitted strictly as an FYI to the other members for their consideration.
- Craig M.

The job was okay but follow up was horrible. They had no communication and were completely unprofessional. Their phone is always busy and they never call back. They have no actual office address to check up with either. I have been trying to contact for over two months and they will only respond by text and not give me any information. I just need them to sign a paper stating that the work they did was paid so that I can sell my property. I am not able to close on my house because they will not answer my calls or help me
- Dan A.

Scheduling initial inspection and the job were very easy with
Lakewood Foundation Repair Specialists Provider Name Locked
Lakewood Foundation Repair Specialists Provider Name Locked
inspected crawl space and reviewed engineer's report Crew that did the work were prompt, friendly, and cleaned up. Happy with the results of work. Springy floors and one bathroom door closure issue resolved. Would use again.
- John M.

There was only one issue that was cleared up, but they worked under another name (Structural Systems) that was confusing, but they explained that they also advertise on the radio and other places. They did a very good job. They were good about explaining what they were going to do and they cleaned up the area when they were done. He even shoveled the driveway for us so we could get out! I was very pleased with them and amazed at the work that they did. I would recommend them to anyone who needs basement repair.
- Mary M.

Had 3 companies provide estimates. IFR was 1/2 the cost (price included the city permit, plumbing inspection and structural engineer final report). Although they were going to do alot less work. I was concerned about that at first, but they convinced me that I didn't need as many piers and that concrete would be fine for my situation. In fact, one of the places that the other 2 said I needed piers, IFR said was actually due to a rotted seal plate and the tree roots growing next to the house and recommended that I cut down the tree. When pressed on it, they said they'd be happy to sell me more piers, and more expensive materials if they thought I needed it, but they didn't want to sell me something I didn't need.
They used a large crew and installed the concrete piers and leveled the beams of the house in half a day. Immediately upon leaving, I realized that they didn't repair the seal plate. I called their office who got in touch with the foreman, and his crew came right back and repaired the seal plate the same day (he had overlooked it on the work order). While under the house, he noticed that there was another section of seal plate on the otherside that also had issues, and that he wanted to replace it. They did so the next day AT NO ADDITIONAL COST.
Although they filled the holes from the installed piers with extra dirt, after the recent rains we had, a few of them sunk below ground level by about 1 foot. I called their office, and they had a guy come out the next day and refill the holes.
All in all, very pleased.

- Rorry P.

We truly enjoyed our experience with

and would highly recommend them to everyone. Columbia has has many periods of intense rain in the past couple of years, and we were tired of having most of it come into our house. Working with

Lost Cats Found
Even the most doting, attentive cat owner can lose a kitty. Just ask Jenne Mundy, the world's first "cat profiler," who now helps to reunite lost felines with their humans. The San Antonio, Texas-based Mundy got into this line of work after her own cat strayed. Since then, she has learned ways of preventing the worst from happening.

What to Do with a Found Dog
An old hound dropped off at the Hopalong Animal Shelter, a foster-care based shelter in Oakland, Calif., left a lasting impression. The dog had no tags but was clearly someone's beloved pet that had gotten lost and couldn't find its way back home. The shelter staff scoured the lost-and-found ads in the local newspapers and on websites. They also reviewed posters for lost dogs collected by area shelters -- all to no avail. After staying at the shelter for a few months unclaimed, the dog was facing possible euthanasia.

Shelter Dog Adoption Process Explained
Within a year of his wife's death, William Goryl decided he wanted to adopt a dog from his nearby shelter in Hilton Head, S.C. "I was a little worried because I hadn't had a dog in 15 years," says Goryl, a retired business executive. He was also afraid that each and every dog at the shelter would tug at his heartstrings. With guidance from the staff, however, he made the rounds of available dogs until he came upon a reddish short-haired dog of Basenji mix, which had been found walking along a nearby road six months earlier.

What does the one have to do with the other?

Allow me to answer my own question:

Fractal geometry and chaos theory examine complexity

Intelligent design examines Organization

They are not the same thing!

In my opinion, cellular automata are a perfect testing ground for ID hypotheses, because they are a universe which is under total control - unlike ours.

For example, the Explanatory Filter requires that all natural laws are ruled out before we can identify design - what better place to do that than in a universe built on rules that we specify?

One structure kind which I believe would be perfect for an ID study is the Garden of Eden pattern - an arrangement of cells which has been mathematically proven to be impossible to form within its CA (that is, there is no precursor pattern which can possibly form it). This is in effect the ID poster child, because it can never appear in a CA - it HAS to be created. If they really have anything which detects design, it should flag up an enormous honk on that.

Which is why they won't ever do this, because they don't have a theory and they don't want to test it etc. etc.

There is now a rising flood of free -- much of it amateur [or pseudo-amateur] -- Internet pornography, just a simple Google search away. All you have to do is make a simple mistake in a search and the links to the most graphic, "hard core" porn sites will start to come up.

Thus, we are being lured into a world of graphical, aural and verbal stimulation, designed to pull us into an addiction to not only watching but participating in anything-goes action, and to eventually join the fun by (a) taking and posting public pictures of your "equipment" or adventures, or even (b) advertising in pop-ups on the same sites.

EDC 572: Elementary School Science I

69000 (for web registration)

David Sobel

Summer 2010

Meeting Schedule:

Mon 6/28 - 7/2 (8:30AM-11:59AM)

Competency Area: Curriculum & Instruction
Restricted to Integrated Learning Elementary teacher certification students who plan to be doing an at-distance internship in fall 2010 through April 28; (it must be taken in conjunction with Elementary School Science II offered in fall 2010); open to other Education or Environmental Studies students on April 29. Elementary School Science I can be taken by itself (no requirement to take Elementary School Science II) by students in the Experienced Educator program or by Environmental Studies students.

Science in elementary schools is more than reading the chapter and answering the questions. Observations, hands-on investigations, nature experiences and children’s literature can all provide starting points for developmentally appropriate science curriculum. By doing what scientists do, we will experience elementary science first hand and explore ways to initiate science with children. We will also explore building a connection between science inquiry and mathematical problem solving. Topics may include pendulums, stream studies, clay boats, design technology and bridge-building. We will examine diverse science curriculum materials such as TOPS, GEMS, ESS, MacDonald 5/13 and AIMS and reflect on the current issues and theoretical debates in science education involving pedagogy and standards. For elementary teacher certification students, this course must be taken in conjunction with Elementary School Science II, which will be offered as an on-line course in fall 2010.

Parents of abducted girls, escapees meet president

By Bashir Adigun and Michelle Faul
ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) - President Goodluck Jonathan met for the first time Tuesday with many parents of 219 kidnapped Nigerian schoolgirls and dozens of classmates who managed to escape from their Islamic extremist captors.

Tuesday's meeting comes after some had refused to meet Nigeria's leader last week. For months the parents have been asking to see the president and he finally acceded to a request from Pakistani girls-education activist Malala Yousafzai, who had met with the parents.

Jonathan blamed activists of the #BringBackOurGirls campaign for politicizing the abductions and influencing the parents. The parents said they needed time to decide who would attend.

Chibok community spokesman Lawan Abana said there were 177 people in the delegation meeting Jonathan and an AP reporter counted 51 of the 57 girls who escaped in the early days after the April 15 abduction.

At least 11 of the parents have died since then - seven in a village attack this month and four of heart attacks and other illnesses that the Chibok community blames on the trauma.

Jonathan was accompanied by the ministers of education and of finance, and his national security adviser.

Jonathan and his team walked to a stage above the waiting parents and girls, and journalists were asked to leave. Also present was Gov. Kashim Shettima of Borno state, from which the girls were abducted. Shettima has accused Jonathan of not doing enough to save the girls and has angered the government with his charges that Boko Haram fighters are better armed and motivated than Nigeria's military.

The failure to rescue the girls is an international embarrassment and daily #BringBackOurGirls rallies in Abuja, the capital, to ensure attention for the girls' plight have irked the government.

Some of the parents and community leaders of the Chibok town from which the girls were kidnapped have made public statements urging Jonathan to negotiate with the girls' captors. Boko Haram is demanding a swap for detained fighters in exchange for the girls. So far, Jonathan has refused.

Nigeria's Defense Ministry, also criticized for not quickly rescuing the girls, has said that it knows where they are being held but that it fears any military campaign could get them killed.

Boko Haram has increased the number and deadliness of its attacks and this month has been closing in on Chibok, threatening to attack again, according to community leaders.

Last week Boko Haram fighters took control of Damboa town, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from Chibok, and the National Emergency Management Agency said Monday more than 15,000 people from the town and nearby villages are on the run.

The mass abduction has been plagued by politics from the start. First lady Patience Jonathan charged the kidnappings were fabricated by her husband's enemies to damage his image.

She also had two leading activists briefly arrested, and relations between the government, security services and the #BringBackOurGirls movement have been tense ever since.

On Monday, leading campaigner Oby Ezekwesili, a former education minister, posted on Twitter that her passport was briefly seized by state intelligence agents as she tried to board a flight to London from Abuja, Nigeria's capital.

Jonathan has never before met with the parents or the escaped girls, though he insists repeatedly that "My priority is the return of these girls." In May, he cancelled a planned trip to Chibok without explanation.

Jonathan said last week that, "As a father of girls, I stand ready to meet with the parents of our abducted children and the truly brave girls that have escaped this nightmare through the grace of God."

Book Review

Group-Centered Prevention Program for At-Risk Students

The emphasis of this book on group approaches to prevention is fully consistent with one of the major initiatives of the Society for Group Psychology and Group Psychotherapy. This is a book full of rich examples that is supported by relevant theory and research.

By Robert K. Conyne

Robert K. ConyneAuthor:  Harpine, Elaine Clanton
Publisher: Springer, 2011
Reviewed By: Conyne, Robert K., April 2011

Group-Centered Prevention Program for At-Risk Students builds on Clanton Harpine’s first book on this general topic of groups in schools, Group Interventions in Schools: Promoting Mental Health for At-Risk Children and Youth, which Andy Horne reviewed in the July 2009 issue of this newsletter (pp. 22–23). Please refer to the contents of that review because they highlight and set the stage for much of what continues, by design of the author, in this new book I am reviewing. Where, among other emphases, the first book introduced the topic of group-centered interventions within schools, this one explicates it by focusing on groups used for the prevention of at-risk problems faced by students in the schools (as well as a way to correct existing problems).

In addition, the emphasis of this book on group approaches to prevention is fully consistent with one of the major initiatives of the Society for Group Psychology and Group Psychotherapy. Beginning with a set of task force recommendations on this topic in 2000, the Society has dedicated its APA convention theme to this area (2009) and its journal, Group Dynamics: Theory, Research, and Practice published a special issue (2010, Volume 14, Number 3) addressing the group-prevention nexus. I was involved in all these efforts, for example, co-editing with Dr. Clanton Harpine the journal special issue mentioned above. So, fair disclosure holds I indicate that I may not be a completely objective reviewer of this book which I think so clearly explicates the ongoing group-prevention emphasis that the Society (and the Association for Specialists in Group Work) has endorsed and which I, along with an increasing number of other psychologists, feel so strongly about.

Consider the title of this new book for a moment. How does an author organize in one succinctly and wellwritten book the very large and complex topics of: "Group-Centered," "Prevention Program, "and "At-Risk Students"? This is an ambitious project at the start, where diverse sets of concepts must be juggled successfully and it is not for the faint-of-heart. This level of challenge may explain, at least in part, why the field is dominated with a much more familiar line of scholarly work, practice, and research: "Individual-Centered," "Remedial Program," and "Problem Students" (not to imply this line of inquiry and practice is unimportant or easy).

Clanton Harpine pulls this grand project off with aplomb. Her new book is conceptually sound, research-based, jam-packed with practical applications, and is written in a scholarly and readable style. The latter quality is especially apropos because the on-going applied focus of her book is on an intensive 10-hour prevention program based on group approaches she has developed, called Camp Sharigan, which uses reading as the means for exerting preventive effects. Because her group-based prevention program targets school-age children, and because reading is an essential life skill for children (and people of all ages in our society), it makes perfect sense to build a groupbased prevention program around reading, which can be tackled in class, after class, during summer programs, and in community-based efforts. As Clanton Harpine indicates in a critically important point, "Camp Sharigan is not just a reading program. Reading is the intervention to change behavior and strengthen mental wellness" (p. 56). As an aside, I’ve always been attracted to the potential of using indirect approaches for improving mental health, especially in prevention programs, by involving participants in main-line activities such as reading or exercise or volunteer work projects, with mental health guidance and applications intentionally and integrally attached.

Why does this "reading program" work? A key reason, which will be of no surprise to readers of this newsletter, is because of the interactive psychoeducational group processes that run through it by design. As the author points out, group interaction is essential for promoting learning and change. She goes further by saying, "Direct instruction or lecture is never included in a group-centered prevention program" and that "group interaction and group cohesion are built into every group-centered prevention program (p. 49).

This book may hold special value for those who want to apply or adapt the group-centered prevention principles that are presented. This is so because Clanton Harpine has taken the extra step of providing program development and evaluation tools that can be used by readers to help shape similar projects of their own. This is another unique feature of this book, taking theory and practice to a deeper level by assisting those interested to convert into action the ideas that may be inspired or at least stimulated by the many excellent applications about which they are reading.

Finally, I find little to criticize in this book and much more to praise. This is a book full of rich examples that is supported by relevant theory and research. It will be of direct help for those who themselves wish to develop  group-centered prevention programs aimed at at-risk students and of general assistance to those who are interested in developing such programs for other populations. For all readers of this Newsletter and members of our Society, tying our group perspective and skills to prevention goals and programs is the next big step awaiting us. Doing so successfully will help broaden our impact, contributing to healthier people and settings. Thanks to Elaine for providing an excellent source to help guide this needed initiative.
