Best Mountain Bikes Under $200 | Reviews
Top mountain bike models can cost a small fortune, but you can still get a very decent deal if you are shopping with a tight budget – providing you choose wisely.
Off-road cycling is a great hobby that can be practiced throughout the year and doesn't take too much training. However, the price of equipment can sometimes prevent enthusiasts from enjoying this healthy and fun sport, with better bikes costing well in excess of $500. When you consider additional equipment (helmets, gloves, new tires etc.) the bill can balloon far beyond the reach of an average family. It is perfectly reasonable to strive for quality, but what to do when you simply can't pay the price of the ideal bike for your ambitions as a recreational or even professional rider?
Don't worry – it is possible to buy the best mountain bike under $200 if you are able to identify a model that offers good performance for its class. Sure, there are some shabby choices in this price range, but careful research will reveal a few underestimated gems that pack a lot of punch per dollar. You can take me for my word here, and I know from experience that a solid bike is all you need to get started and it can take you quite far. Once you get serious about competitive mountain bike racing, you can upgrade your equipment to match your peers, developing your skills in parallel.
Here are a few things to keep in mind if you are thinking about getting a mountain bike without putting a mortgage on your house. Let's start with the overview of most value-driven options on the market:
5 best mountain bikes under $200
So, here are 5 of the best mountain bikes under $200. I have spent hours & hours to research while my effort to show the right examples of solid mountain bikes in this price range. Hope it's going to help you.
18-inch Schwinn High Timber Man's Mountain Bike
If you want a good-looking bike that's going to last forever, this little daredevil could be the answer. It has simple and elegant construction that's strong enough to take a few bumps and bruises, so you can ride it around the neighborhood or on the dust trail all the same. Despite its modest price tag, it comes equipped with top-range gear, including the 21-speed twist shifter produced by Shimano and high-quality forks made by Schwinn. Alloy V brakes will reliably stop the bike on any terrain, while the tires are rugged enough to endure anything you put them through.
Perhaps it's not a coincidence that Schwinn High Timber comes with a lifetime guarantee for the original owner – this bike is made to serve you for years without giving you much headache.
Diamondback 2015 Tess 24 Complete Hard Tail
Intended primarily for younger riders, this bike is a popular choice due to its safety and durability. It features the most basic Shimano groupset that will work just fine on flat roads and won't really do well on rougher surfaces. With 24-inch wheels and a lightweight cross-country design, the bike is very practical and doesn't put too much strain on the user. The suspension on the front fork has only 40 mm of travel, which is typical for youth bikes and doesn't come close to what best-in-class bikes offer, which is another reason why this model has a limited range of applications.
Despite certain shortcomings, Tess 24 is still a viable option for non-demanding owners, and could be a great gift to a child with no prior cycling experience.
29-inch Kent Thruster T-29
With lightweight 29-inch wheels and aluminum frame, this product looks like a more affordable version of high-end all-terrain bikes that can be a perfect training utility. It is well equipped to withstand the hardships of intensive use while providing fantastic level of agility and precise control. Shimano-made gearing supports smooth adjustment to any road conditions, while high quality Alloy V brakes on both wheels make sudden stopping very safe even at high speeds. On top of its technical features, T-29 isn't the worse you can do in terms of visual appeal.
Put it all together, and you have a well-rounded bike ready for multi-purpose duty. It's a pretty good value deal that will allow you to start practicing this exciting sport without a major investment.
26-inch Genesis V2100 (Full Suspension)
As a full-suspension bike that performs reasonably well under a variety of scenarios, this is a great pickup for anyone eager to find a comfortable and multi-practical ride. Medium-sized wheels are ideal for city riding and nature trails, while serious off-road adventurers might consider upgrading this beauty with a new pair of tires. Braking system is made by Promax and includes both a front-wheel disc and rear lineal brakes, combining their effects for maximum grip.
Admittedly a better selection for owners who don't push the envelope too far, Genesis V2100 represents a good opportunity to snatch a decent bike without committing significant resources.
26-inch Mongoose Ledge 2.2
This is another solid choice if you are looking to stretch your dollar a little further. It's a nice little 21-speed bike that is capable of taking your where you need to be very comfortably and it won't complain if you get off the concrete for a while, either. Built from aluminum and featuring a dual suspension system, this bike resembles the construction of professional mountain bikes – at a fraction of the price. The linear pull brakes can be trusted to do the job, while Shimano gear works just as you'd expect it to.
Again, the bike looks rather nice in the street, with simple and modern design and pretty impactful choice of colors. In my opinion, it would look even better with a coat of dust/mud on it.
Most importantly, budget bikes are typically made of sturdy materials like steel, and feature robust designs that increase safety and durability at the expense of speed. Heavier frames might annoy a professional racer trying to shave down his best time for another second, though for a casual bike lover they don't cause any inconvenience. Beginners need stability and simple control of the vehicle, not maximum performance. Smartly chosen bike from the low-cost category can meet (and sometimes) exceed expectations in this regard.
Finally, it is better to invest in biking equipment gradually than to splash a bunch of cash on something you can't fully utilize. There are myriad ways how to spend money on this hobby, from boosting your bike with new parts to travelling to exciting mountain bike locations, so saving a bit on your first ride is probably a smart idea.
What to look for when buying a mountain bike under $200?
First of all, you want to know what the bike is made of and how much wear and tear it can be expected to endure. What's the point of saving money on your purchase if the product breaks down too soon? That's why you need to inquire about the materials used to craft the frame and quality of other components such as the transmission system or suspension before you settle on a model.
Another key aspect to keep in mind is wheel size. Depending on the height of the intended user and the expected mode of utilization, you might want to consider a bigger or smaller mountain bike. As you've seen from the previews above, low-budget mountain bikes come in a wide variety of sizes, which must be factored in when weighing pros and cons of a particular choice.
Knowing how the bike will predominantly be used is very important, as well. Typically, cheaper bikes are less well-rounded and might be weak when taken out of their natural element, even if they perform perfectly fine when the conditions are right. Certain bikes could behave well on concrete but offer very little on a slippery surface, while others sacrifice some grace and/or speed while proving to be worthwhile on a difficult trail. Decide how you want to ride and you will clearly see which bike fits this profile the best.
Final thoughts
Nobody is arguing that cheaper bikes are better, or even as good on average as higher priced models. The whole idea of this article is that the quality gap should be put into context, with buyer's intentions for the bike and other relevant factors contributing to the perception of value. There is no reason to be ashamed of riding an affordable bike, or even worse to skip on this wonderful activity entirely just because you can't afford top-class equipment, not when you have so many solid models of mountain bikes under $200 to choose from.

This evening we went to visit with Ashley and Justin. She made baked spaghetti; oh my goodness, it was delicious. She's a great cook! We swam and then played a couple of games, Phase 10 with dice instead of cards, and we played SWAP, a card game that is so much fun. If you discard the Slap card, everybody has to slap the card, one hand on top of the other. Last person draws a card. Let's just say we were rowdy; there was lots of laughter and banged up hands. I'll bet her neighbors are thinking they are noisy new tenants. Smile!
It is amazing to realize the little baby granddaughter I used to rock and cuddle is now an adult. Makes me melancholoy and oh so proud. Especially when she said, "Having you and Grandpa over has been the most fun we've had all week in our new apartment."

Kate Middleton, Prince William Best Quotes About Prince George Ahead Of Royal Baby Birthday
At not quite one year of age, HRH Prince George has yet to utter his first public statement, but his parents, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Kate Middleton, both 32, have hardly kept quiet about their bundle of joy.
Ahead of the British royal's first birthday Tuesday, here are seven of William and Kate's best quotes about Prince George:
On whom he takes after:
One day after giving birth to Prince George, Kate Middleton was beaming when she left St. Mary's Hospital in London, with her husband, Prince William, by her side sporting an equally large grin. After the duchess passed George into William's arms, the duo approached the press, giving a statement on the newborn royal.
"He's got a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure. He's a big boy, he's quite heavy," William said, later revealing that his son takes after his mother. "He's got her looks, thankfully," he said. "No, no, no," Middleton said, laughing off the remark.
On being a first-time mom:
While her husband made quips, the new mother was decidedly more open about her son's arrival.
"It's very emotional," Middleton told reporters outside St. Mary's Hospital. "It's such a special time. I think any parent will know what this feeling feels like."
On his personality:
"He's a little bit of a rascal," William told ABC News of a then one-month-old Prince George, comparing the youngster's demeanor to his younger self and his brother, Prince Harry. "He's a little fighter. He wriggles around quite a lot, which is a little bit of a problem."
On their first night out:
Three months after welcoming their son into the world, William and Kate stepped out for their first royal engagement at the Tusk Conversations Awards, an event which was both exciting and anxiety-producing for the new royal parents.
"As you might have gathered, Catherine and I have recently become proud parents – of a baby who has a voice to match any lion's roar!" William said during his speech. "This is actually our first evening out without him, so please excuse us if you see us nervously casting surreptitious glances at our mobile phones to check all is well back home."
On his first few months:
Vanity Fair recently noted that George was "colicky" during his first few months. William described the situation during a visit to Royal New Zealand Air Force base of Whenuapai, near Auckland, in April.
According to Hello Magazine, Britain's future king told military families that the prince's "first five months" were rough but, over time, things had "got a bit easier."
When questioned by a mother about how Prince William's military career affected her child-rearing, Middleton reportedly said that she simply learned "to get by."
On his sleeping schedule:
During his three-week tour of New Zealand and Australia in April, Prince William took a moment away from Prince George, then 8 months, to discuss his son's sleeping schedule -- or lack thereof -- at a state dinner.
"I hope that George doesn't keep you up. He has been known to be particularly vocal at 3 a.m.," William told his governor's residence hosts. "I swear I heard him doing the haka this morning."
On bath time:
A visit with the British Sub-Aqua Club in London last month seemed like the perfect opportunity for William to share the qualms that come with bathing an 11-month-old.
"At the moment, bath time is quite painful," William dished to reporters about his son. (His own father, Prince Charles, 65, stood nearby). "But hopefully donning a snorkel mask might calm him down."

AnnaSophia Robb Just Chopped Her Hair Into a Pixie and It Looks Adorable
When celebrities do a full hair transformation, sometimes it's hard to tell if it's a really great wig or their real hair. But with ultra-short cuts, we can be pretty sure they took the plunge. Take AnnaSophia Robb's pixie cut, for example. The actress posted a photo to Instagram with the caption, "New hairs. Who dis"" This was just a few days after she showed off a sleek brunette wig with bangs, as well as her natural blonde lob.
We're not sure just yet why AnnaSophia Robb got the short haircut, whether it's for a role or just for fun. Robb is currently shooting Hulu's Little Fires Everywhere with Reese Witherspoon. She commented on Robb's post saying, "Wow!" Robb responded, "hopefully no re-shoots ." That makes me think Robb's pixie cut is her real hair. It looks really chic on the actress and makes her stand out from the crowd of others around her age. Source: Instagram
Fans are loving Robb's new look. Hairstylist Sunnie Brook wrote, "For real"!"!! Edge!!!" and Vanessa Hudgens posted praise hands emojis and: "Ugh love this for yoooou."
Though Robb's hair is the shortest on a celebrity we've seen in a while, there are still a dozen or so actress' taking the plunge into a bob or lob. Lucy Liu just took her lob to a shorter bob, Selena Gomez's natural hair is a bob even though she's been wearing extensions as of late ...

Marijuana use is part of NBA culture - president
Having previously admitted to using marijuana during his playing days, New York Knicks president Phil Jackson said the drug is part of the NBA culture despite efforts to spot it.
MORE: Green, Thompson back Kerr's use of medicinal marijuana
While playing for the Knicks, Jackson missed the entire 1969-70 season because of his back injury, and he used medical marijuana to treat the pain.
That came as no surprise on Tuesday but what raised some eyebrows was Jackson saying the NBA will never be able to legislate marijuana out of the game because it has become part of the league's lifestyle.
After Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr admitted to using marijuana while dealing with chronic back pain, Jackson told the CBS Sports Network: "The year that I was off I was smoking marijuana during that period of time. I think it was a distraction for me as much as a pain reliever.
"But I never thought of it as ultimately a pain medication for that type of situation.
"We have tried to stop [marijuana use] in the NBA. I don't think we have been able to stop it. I think it still goes on and is still a part of the culture in the NBA.
"It is something that we either have to accommodate or figure out another way to deal with it."

Has been 2 years & 6 days since I changed my job & that's how my date with Whitefield started. It has changed my daily lifestyle from my previous job.
Earlier, my commute was 3kms to my workplace with an average of 5 minutes (via bike). Now, it takes an average time of 75 mins (via company shuttle) to reach office, covering 25 kms with 10 pick-up points doing North Bangalore darshan.
The journey to home gets even better in the evening based on when I exit office
- 5pm shuttle will take an average of 90 minutes to reach Hebbal
- 7pm shuttle will take an average of 110 minutes to reach Hebbal
- 9pm shuttle will take an average of 65 minutes to reach Hebbal
Mornings = 6 hours 25 minutes / week
Evenings = 8 hours 33 minutes / week
Total Commuting per day = 2 hours 55 minutes (3 hours round off)
Total Commuting per week = 15 hours
Assuming that I went to work for 202 days in a year (i.e. deducting 50 days for Leaves & Work From Home) then the total commuting hours sums up to 606 hours (25 days).
So, I loose 25 days of my life in Bangalore traffic every year discounting weekend commuting :)
I had thought of writing this article last year but that never materialised. Today, after reading this article The upside of living in the cities with the worst commutes, it motivated me to compute the hours I loose in commuting.
Am still better off than the Urban American who is spending 40 hours commuting every week. But, imagine the total number of hours wasted by all of us in traffic jam. Companies should pro-actively need to adapt remote work for better work-life balance & productiveness of their employees.
Here is my list of longest commutes in Bangalore.
Would like to hear how much time you spend commuting to work in Bangalore or which ever urban city you live in.

Happy hump (& bump) day! I'm so excited to be writing this post..this may be my favorite look yet since launching Haute Ashbury. As most preggos can attest, some days pregnancy brings out the best in us; other days holing up in a cave feels like the only viable option to make it through one's day. This dress (courtesy of Pinkblushmaternity.com) makes me feel absolutely regal, which at 38.5 weeks is quite a feat. It's the first of 3 looks I'll be posting featuring their amazing maternity wear. In addition to being gorgeous and comfortable, most of their pieces are also completely wearable post-pregnancy (or really for anyone, any time).
On a personal note, the countdown is ON. Baby Schur is as active as can be, but thankfully I haven't seen any signs of labor just yet. I'm officially on Maternity Leave, which has been really amazing thus far. It's so nice to have time to focus on resting and prepping for baby.
As always, thanks for reading and I keep an eye out for my next couple PinkBlush Maternity looks!
Don't forget to head over to pinkblushmaternity.com to view their fantastic maternity & non-maternity lines! Also, I've linked to my shoes and accessories below. The bag and headband are both H & M, though I couldn't find a link to the bag (it was $10!).

8 High-Energy Strains to Balance That Huge Thanksgiving FeastRebecca KelleyNovember 26, 2013
Thanksgiving is a couple days away, meaning you're already dreading the full-contact, chaotic trip to the grocery store that will end with you punching an elderly woman in the face to snag the last can of condensed milk. And you're probably not looking forward to the huge, exhausting family gathering that includes Weird Uncle Leonard and his "Pull My Finger" game that he thinks still delights you even though you're no longer seven years old.
But one thing you probably are looking forward to is the food. My goodness, the food. Turkey. Stuffing. Cranberries. Yams. Mashed potatoes. Gravy on EVERYTHING. And a huge slice of pumpkin pie (perhaps medicated, perhaps not) with whipped cream to top it all off. By this point your pants' waistband has hit critical mass and your heart is struggling to pump a 50/50 mix of blood and pan drippings through your hardening arteries. You tell yourself it's the turkey's tryptophan that's making you nod off at 3:30 in the afternoon, but you need to stop kidding yourself and come to terms with the fact that it's really the 4,000 calories' worth of food you just shoved down your drooling maw that's hit you like a tranq dart to the arse.
Fret not, holiday gorger, because as with most things in life, there's a strain for that! Here are eight high-energy, uplifting cannabis strains that should reintroduce a little pep in your post-Thanksgiving feast step. Just stay away from the infused edibles — you've had enough to eat for one day (or weekend, really).
1. Sour Diesel
The strain of choice for Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel in This is the End, Sour Diesel hits you fast and will bring energetic, uplifting effects. Plus, it's known to induce some happiness, so you won't feel too bummed out after Weird Uncle Leonard prompts you to pull his finger for the eighth time.
2. Super Silver Haze
A three-time champion at the Cannabis Cup, Super Silver Haze will bring enough energy to that gravy-filled body of yours to want to act out a one-person rendition of the Thanksgiving classic Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. (You might want to gloss over Steve Martin's rental car tirade in front of Grandma Ethel.)
3. Lemon Haze
Put down that third slice of lemon meringue pie and reach for this citrusy strain instead. Leafly visitors have tagged Lemon Haze's flavors as lemon, sweet, and citrus, making it a nice after-dinner treat instead of yet another high-calorie option.
4. Golden Goat
A hybrid strain, Golden Goat has flavors of coffee, honey, and lemon, making it the perfect digestif to focus on as your Aunt Millie attempts to set you up with someone she vaguely knows from her church because she's worried you'll never find someone decent on your own (and she doesn't trust those Internet dating sites).
Another hybrid, J1 is great for counteracting stress and depression, so when you come to the realization that you've just wholeheartedly belly-flopped into "winter weight" territory after one gorgetastic meal, J1 will be there to pull you out of your funk and get you to speed-walk laps around the dining room table.
6. Green Candy
Green Candy is a good option for battling anxiety, so when your mom announces she expects you to accompany her to snag some Black Friday shopping deals, you can curb your sense of dread while preparing your battle armor.
7. White Widow
A mainstay in the Showtime series Weeds, White Widow is a hybrid cannabis strain that packs a powerful punch. It's known as a social strain, so be prepared to bust out the Charades after you're done gossiping with Cousin Sally about who should win the Game of Thrones.
8. Amnesia Haze
Sit back with some Amnesia Haze to wipe away the memory of that ridiculous feast you just inhaled. (Okay, Amnesia Haze won't actually make you forget anything, but it'll put a smile on your face and is a great way to cap off a day full of overbearing relatives, weird jello salads, and a seriously obscene amount of food.)
Looking for some more strains to supplement your day of thanks? Play around with the filters in our Strain Explorer to see what pops up!

Etiquetteer was so very pleased to hear earlier this month that soprano Renee Fleming would be singing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl this year. Etiquetteer has become increasingly dismayed at the histrionics displayed by Popular Singers every year in their "interpretations" of the venerable "Star-Spangled Banner." The National Anthem, like the White House, doesn't need to be anything but itself. Just as the former doesn't need to be gussied up with novelty lighting for state dinners, neither does the National Anthem need to be burdened with emotional embellishments. Because the most important guideline for any singer singing the National Anthem at a public event is to keep it simple enough for everyone singing along to do so without getting lost.
Madame Fleming acquitted herself, and the nation, admirably with her interpretation. Her one departure from the traditional arrangement, that extra-high note at the end, was delivered with such purity and with such harmony with everyone else doing their best to hit that one high note at the end, that Etiquetteer could only shed one patriotic tear and then start preparing an income tax return. While recognizing that this is a subjective opinion, Etiquetteer truly believes that public singers should be shown this arrangement before singing the National Anthem publicly, along with that of the late Kate Smith. Call Etiquetteer old-fashioned and sentimental if you will - they are medals Etiquetteer wears with pride - but Miss Smith's arrangement remains the definitive.

If you are currently working with App-V, SCVMM, Hyper-V, SCCM, or any management environment leveraging certificates, it is important to be made aware of a very important update being released next week.
Next week a security fix will be widely distributed which will prevent use of certificates which use weak (less than 1024 bit) RSA keys. Microsoft will issue a critical non-security update (KB 2661254) for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. The update will block the use of cryptographic keys that are less than 1024 bits. You could potentially run into issues as it may cause outages for those who have services that leverage IIS or any other application or service (client side or server side) if those services rely on those weak certificates. We have more information on this update and how it works at the PKI blog. Please refer to the following links:
These articles will give you methods of getting in front of this issue with remediation options. If you are managing updates through SCCM or WSUS, please ensure that you have verified the key strengths of all of your certificates prior to deployment of this update.
I have received a lot of questions asking me to be a little more specific with regards to how specific products may or may not be affected. How this may affect your environment will depend on specifics of product usage. The articles from the PKI blog referenced above are very helpful in giving you methods of determining if you are using certificates with key lengths <1024 bits and how to go about remediating the issue. Specific examples regarding product usage revolves around mostly the leveraging of IIS-based services. In addition, other types of scenarios in our world of virtualization and manageability include:
- Using a certificate for RTSPS generated froma web server template with a key length length less than 1024 bits.
- Using certificates for SSP in SCVMM 2008/R2 generated from a web server template with a key length less than 10-24 bits.
- Using Client or Server-side SSL for policy and image distribution in MED-V V1 using certificates with keys less than 1024 bits.
Most of the guidance in recent years always recommended to request certififcates with at least a keylength of 1024, especially, for example, in the guidance for SCCM Native Mode (Config Manager)
The public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates that are required for setting up secure communications in manageability and virtualization products must be created, installed, and managed independently from the products themselves. This means that there are often different IT administrative groups handling this in most organizations. This leads to many variances in deployment for the required certificates and you will need to consult your particular PKI deployment team to assist in assessing how this will affect you.
The security advisory is located at http://technet.microsoft.com/security/advisory/2661254.
The KB article is available at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2661254.
The update is available now to allow organizations to assess the impact of this update and to reissue certificates with larger key sizes, if necessary, before the update is sent out through Windows Update. Previous blogs may have mentioned it being released to Windows Update this month. That is no longer the case. The update is planned to be sent out through Windows Update on October 9, 2012.

|Top Handicapper in the NBA, with a 70-41 RUN this year, is ready for to sweep the board today, in his winning picks.
Posts Tagged 'free picks against the spread'
Free picks against the spread
Free picks against the spread – How should you approach?
Free picks have always been a treat for bettors. Some of the professionals may also think these free picks as freebie. This always happens when you have to work in the betting service. Many experienced handicappers always offer such free picks all time. They do such work to promote their names and help the new bettors to decide their future picks on certain sports. Free picks can be stated on different betting styles. Some handicappers will prefer giving on the money line or some feel comfortable offering over under betting line. Free picks against the spread are also available from certain handicappers. It is quite important for bettors who love to set their bets in such betting form. This form of betting is not a difficult but one has to be active enough to analyze the performances of the current teams. As a bettor, you will get the betting line from the casinos or sportsbooks. The rest of the activities should be sorted out efficiently to get your bet as a winner.
Free picks against the spread – are they tricky?
In sports, free picks against the spread can be little tricky. Many bettors across the word prefer sports betting, but they often find it tough to understand this method of betting. Therefore, they feel little uncomfortable to bet in spite of getting a great chance of getting as a winner of that bet. Uncertain feelings never help, and it does not matter what you believe. There is an easier way of explaining the method, and how the entire betting policy works over various sports. Most cases, all the major sport games, have been participated with the point spread, and it has been stated as part of a wager. This betting is mostly worked on basketball and football.
Free picks against the spread – how it can be handy?
Once you try understanding of all the necessary features on points spread, you can place your bet depending on the scored points. To know about the spread, you need to understand on how point spread works. The point spread is nothing but a form of adjusting the final score set by the casinos or oddsmaker or sports bookers. For an example, the online sportsbook has set for one of the matches of NFL where the betting line is set for Cowboys -11 and Lions +11. Here, the point spread of this game is 11 points for the cowboys. It means that the lions are the favorite team, and the margin of their winning is set 11 points by the book makers. As a bettor, you need to cross the sport booker's estimated line, and bet something above the point spread. If the lions stay out as a winner by 12 points, you will be rewarded as the winning bettor.
If you work against the spread where the cowboys are set with 11 points, the team needs to win by 12 points at least. If the team wins by 11 points, your bet will be stated as "No Action". This is why bettors don't prefer on this method as it comes with great uncertainty. Free picks against the spread may work, but it needs to be analyzed properly before you get into any action.
NBA predictions – increase winning ratios at extreme sports picks
NBA predictions – Expert choice
Are you a job holder or working as stock holders or any "corporate" business personal? Being any of this working personal, you may not have enough time to get information about favorite sport team. You might be able to have some information, but this is not similar of what basketball bettors have to do every day. It requires tremendous dedication and time to stay as followers of every basketball team. All the statistics, "behind the scenes, exclusive news, injuries, and best players in terms of forms" have to be analyzed properly. You can't do so many things while working as a full time job holders. This is why bettors just work in betting perspective as it needs to be done precisely.
So who loves basketball? Well, you will get a response from hundreds of countries around the world. It is such an appealing sporting event; the fans number would easily cover billions! In such amazing fan followers, betting in basketball will be a predictable task for all bettors. Betting in sports is not similar like other events. People need to understand the psychology, and basics of sport game. However, you need to be an expert predictor of basketball event to establish as pro bettor. NBA predictions require special attention on all favorite and underdog teams to create a solid foundation in terms of statistics. All smart bettors like to engage themselves with solid information, and expert NBA picks by which they can make proper NBA predictions. Being basketball bettor, you can certainly check out Playoff NBA predictions from popular basketball picks to put your wagers in favorite teams.
NBA predictions – rules to follow
Wayward approaches to make NBA predictions should not be practiced at all. Wise thinking and perfect execution can make bettor successful. You need to work with handicapper picks according to the situation. Making a choice from expert picks can be the perfect way of earning good percentage. Earning a decent amount from betting in sports is related with professional approaches for a considerable amount of time. Weekly sports pick for NBA games, you should decide to choose the right handicapper, and his picks to win the bet. Making good working relation with sports handicappers is the perfect way of starting sport betting. If you have already settled down in NBA betting service, you can try with weekly NBA picks. For newbie, one must not try many NBA predictions within a week. Little loss is better than spending way much for one or couple of matches.
NBA predictions – NBA picks as free
NBA predictions will be useful with free picks for NBA games. You can try testing the NBA predictions in playoff periods. One must consult to know the probability of the winner of the season with the NBA handicappers before the start of the season. Compare with the paid or premium picks for NBA sports to find out the actual results to know the free picks against the spread. You can also figure out the available handicapping services with free NBA picks in order to evaluate your betting condition.

Kitchen and home design have come a long way in the last few centuries. Once upon a time, home design was done purely around the function of a piece of furniture or an appliance. Today people choose their furniture, appliances and even their modern style kitchen utensils around their favorite design styles. Some people will choose to decorate their house too look like something out of a modern art catalogue, while others prefer the look of a western ranch house and still others love a classic and old fashioned Victorian look. The good news is that, whatever your design style, you will be able to find a modern wood stove that matches your taste.
There are two major benefits of using a modern wood stove over other heating elements in your home:
Modern wood burning stoves are better for the environment. Wood smoke is far better for the air than the smoke and pollution that comes from burning coal. It might not be as clean as natural gas, but it is cheaper than many of the alternatives! Wood is a renewable resource. Trees can always be replanted. In fact, many states have a law that states that every tree that gets chopped down must be replanted within specific periods of time.
Financial Savings
The modern wood stove saves money. Thanks to things like under floor heating and central air, the modern wood stove (when used with modern utensils that can help it along) can heat an entire home from one small location. This saves the home owner from having to use electric heating devices or natural gas powered heating devices to keep his home warm in the winter time. It is far cheaper to buy a few cords of wood at the beginning of the cold season than to pay for an increased electric bill.
When you go shopping for your modern wood stove or modern kitchen sets and its accompanying modern utensils, it is a good idea to shop around. Choose a modern wood stove that is made from durable material and make sure that you hire a professional to install the stove inside of your home. Do not fall for clearance sale prices or fancy sales pitches. Do your research and learn about which kind of modern wood stoves (and modern utensils) work best in your style of home before you head to the store. It might feel like a waste of time when you start out, but you will be grateful for taking the time to learn about stoves in the future!

Dance with Devils
Saw the first episode and I ma, as I honestly already expected, very disappointed. This is almost like Diabolik Lovers but with singing. You'd have to be a pretty fruity guy to actually like this sort of thing.
The artwork is surprisingly weak. The characters don't stand out and the level of detail is rather disappointing. You could put any of the characters in a line-up and you probably wouldn't be able to pick them out of there.
Still, the artwork I could live with. It's the story that just kills it for me. There's singing, pretty-boy demons and a helpless heroine that's now under their care. It's filled with so many clichés that it's making my head ache.
I cannot recommend this. This just seems to me like another hit and miss. They tried, I suppose that's all that matters in the end.
Plot Summary: Ritsuka Tachibana is a female second-year high school student who attends Shiko Academy in Shiko Town. She enjoyed her school life while living with her mother Maria, but one day, that balance fell into ruin when she discovers several of her attractive, male classmate are demons.

Defendor (2009) Home Video Review
A Special Place in Hell
You can add another genre to the list of films that never need to be made again: The Duct-Tape-Vigilante Picture. As exemplified in recent movies like Kick-Ass and Super, and stretching all the way back to 1999's Mystery Men, this subset of the superhero movie sees average men and women drawing inspiration from comic-book characters and taking on crime themselves. They stitch together cheap costumes and modify household items to make weapons; they're invariably awkward losers overlooked by society who see epic evil in every street pusher and corrupt developer in the neighborhood.
At their best, these films are brutal yet inspiring metaphors for modern American living. They call upon the audience to fight little injustices in their everyday lives and, maybe, fry some bigger fish, too. At their worst, they bypass truth and justice altogether, relishing in nihilism.
Let me be clear: I have no problem with brutally violent superhero movies, as long as there's a solid, positive message buried somewhere inside. I'm also okay with movies that are graphic, bleak and pointless, as long as the filmmakers back up their horror shows with a solid script (great acting and visuals are a plus).
So when I say that I consider writer/director Peter Stebbings's Defendor to be offensively awful, know that I'm not holding it to some weird, prudish entertainment standard. What sets this movie apart from the rest is that the main character is retarded; I don't mean "stupid" or "silly". I mean he's a grown man with a mental handicap who beats and maims criminals. It's a fascinating premise for a film; probably not for an action/comedy, though; and definitely not this one.
Can we agree that watching idiots fumbling around and hurting themselves is funny, but watching disabled people do the same thing is not?
Good. Now, let's talk about this sophomoric piece of shit.
No, that's not fair.
Defendor is actually a very well made indie movie, and Stebbings has somehow assembled a dynamite cast. Woody Harrelson stars as the titular vigilante, a black-clad hero who bludgeons sleazy cops with a truncheon and disarms gun-toting flunkies with jars of angry wasps. By day, he's a construction worker named Arthur Poppington whose job it is to hold the "Slow" sign (ha fucking ha). Arthur's boss and best friend, Paul (the always excellent Michael Kelly), warns him to stay away from the young prostitute that's taken up residence in the rundown building he calls both home and headquarters.
Angel (Kat Dennings) rescued Defendor from the henchmen of a vicious junky cop named Dooney (Elias Koeas) and decided to stick around. Angel loves smoking crack and screwing people over, which compels her to dupe Defendor into paying her $40 a day to help him track down the Serbian drug lord (Alan C. Peterson) he believes killed his mother. Sandra Oh also pops up as the court-appointed shrink who analyzes Arthur after he's arrested for stuffing Angel's pedophile dad into a shopping mall garbage can.
The film's insurmountable problem is its struggle to find both a tone and a point. We're asked to accept Defendor as a wacky, low-rent farce at the outset; the cornball superhero score and bumbling-bad-guy shenanigans are strictly Disney Channel nonsense. But these elements punctuate scenes of crack whores blowing cops and mentally disabled people getting lit up by machine guns. There are long (long, long, looooong) stretches of the movie that are meant to build up Angel's burgeoning friendship with the delusional, sad Arthur. But Stebbings's writing is neither sharp nor consistent enough to hold the audience's interest.
Angel vacillates between being a hooker with a heart of gold and a straight-up, nasty See You Next Tuesday; I just wanted someone to step in and prevent her from emotionally terrorizing Arthur.
On a related note, Dennings plays the most cogent crackhead I've ever seen in the movies. Instead of a strung-out space-case, she plays Angel as a way-buzzed Edward Furlong--complete with dead-inside delivery and lead-lidded eyes. She also kicks her habit in record time (apparently using the Charlie Sheen Method) and becomes a successful newspaper columnist by film's end--a character turn that Defendor's creators might think is something downright "comic book-y", but which is just plain stupid in any reality.
The only scenes that didn't make me want to shower afterwards involve Arthur and Paul--but even those are tainted by doubts. Paul is a loving family man who, we're asked to believe, has been Arthur's dear friend for the five years they've worked together. The characters' love for each other is evident, touching, and wholly out of place in this film. I would've rather seen a legitimate drama about Arthur's relationship with Paul's family than a tasteless comedy that uses these scenes as heft. Still, if they're such good friends, how is it that Paul didn't know that Arthur had moved out of his group home? And did he never think to ask his friend about what he does in his spare time?
Had Defendor been about a lovable loser or an off-balance schlub, it would have been just another retread of better, similarly themed movies. But by establishing almost right away that Arthur has been challenged from birth, Stebbings splatters each scene with a green ooze of distaste. Casting Harrelson was a sharp move, in that the actor does very well affecting the faux Rain-Man-nerisms of the Movie Simpleton. But when the film turns dramatic and we're meant to see just how slow Arthur is, it's clear that the actor has gone (to use Tropic Thunder's awful but astute term) "full retard". There's just no way to enjoy that as entertainment unless you compartmentalize the hell out of your film brain.
If you disagree, I'd like to propose the following mental exercise: Think back to the film's most "comedic" moments and picture an actor with Down Syndrome in place of Woody Harrelson. Is Defendor still hilarious, or do you feel a little sick?
I'm not suggesting that actors or characters with disabilities be treated with kid gloves, but I'd appreciate a baseline of dignity. By never specifying Arthur's condition or answering basic questions the audience might have when presented with such a character, Stebbings is left with nothing but a flimsy gimmick of a hero--played by an actor doing the handicapped equivalent of blackface. It would take a hell of a writer/director/actor combination to make that acceptable and exciting, and no one on this picture is up to the task. Defendor is an ugly movie to begin with, but its handling of the retardation angle makes it indefensible.

WASHINGTON – Embattled Republican nominee Donald Trump had two options entering Sunday night's town hall forum with Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton: Offer sincere words of contrition for lewd remarks in a damaging video, or fight like a wounded animal and attack the past sex scandals of Clinton's husband, former president Bill Clinton.
The Manhattan real estate tycoon chose to fight, signaling he has no plans to go quietly.
In their first encounter since Friday's video release, Trump sought to salvage his battered campaign with a spirited assault on Clinton's personal and public life, portraying her as a career politician beholden to the same Wall Street elites and Washington insiders who have abandoned him in recent days.
But he could not ignore the shockwaves of a coarse video that has stunned the GOP establishment and reframed the presidential race, leaving some top Republicans questioning whether he should continue his campaign.
"This was locker room talk," Trump said. "I'm not proud of it. I've apologized to my family. I've apologized to the American public… Yes I'm embarrassed by it. I hate it. But it's locker room talk."
Clinton seized on the video to question Trump's "fitness" to be president. She described it as another of his frequent insults on women and minorities. "It represents exactly who he is," she said.
In a debate that will probably change few minds, Trump made good on his threats to bring up his attacks on Clinton's marital history and the infidelities of her husband, to whom he compared his own behavior in the wake of the video revelations.
"If you look at Bill Clinton – far worse," said Trump, accusing Clinton of attacking her husband's accusers. "It's disgraceful, and she should be ashamed of herself," he said.
The attack ended weeks of speculation about whether Trump would delve into one of the most painful episodes in the Clinton family's history.
Hours before the debate, however, Trump appeared with several of the former president's accusers – including Paula Jones, Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey – all of whom allege Bill Clinton sexually assaulted them in past decades. They also took front-row seats in the debate hall.
Bill and daughter Chelsea Clinton also were in the hall.
The gambit – ignoring the advice of political strategists on the left and right -underscored Trump's determination to turn the tables on the Clintons, even at the risk of turning the race – and his campaign – into the tawdry spectacle of a reality TV show.
Hillary Clinton, quoting first lady Michelle Obama, remarked, "When they go low, you go high."
Round Two of the presidential debates was unavoidably personal. But it showcased not just the candidates' sharp differences on domestic and foreign policy, but also the contrast in temperament seen as they roamed a stage at Washington University in St. Louis to interact with a live audience of undecided voters.
In a departure from tradition, Clinton and Trump forsook an opening handshake.
At every turn, after a combative Trump sought to pivot from the sting of the video tumult, he went on the offensive to portray Clinton as an avatar of the political status quo.
"This country cannot afford another four years of Barack Obama, and that's what you're getting with her," he said.
Trump criticized Obamacare, which he would repeal, and panned Clinton's record on creating jobs in New York as the state's U.S. senator. But his sharpest barbs were reserved for Clinton's private email server, vowing to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate her if he's elected.
When Clinton expressed relief that he's unlikely to hold the reins of power, Trump interjected, "Because you'd be in jail."
Clinton stuck to the largely successful formula of their first debate, seeking to defend her own record, raise questions about Trump's temperament, and goad him into frequent interruptions.
Even without the video, Sunday's rematch came at a critical moment for Trump, who has stumbled in the polls over the past 10 days since his widely panned performance in the first debate. Trump now trails in the polls in most key battleground states.
For Trump, the debate also served as a final screen test for to see whether he could move past the controversy of his crude remarks about women and assume the aura of a plausible national leader.
Top Republican officials, including Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus – who has strongly condemned Trump's remarks – made clear they were watching his performance to determine how far the party can continue to support him.
Both Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, pulled out of a GOP rally in Wisconsin over the weekend hosted by House Speaker Paul Ryan, adding to the sense of an intraparty crisis.
Even without the distraction of scandal, Sunday's debate presented a special challenges for both candidates, requiring them to land blows while at the same time relate to ordinary voters.
Clinton sometimes sought to approach her questioners, face them directly, repeat their names; Trump often paced around the stage, sometimes turning his back and looking away while she spoke.
Half the questions came from an audience of undecided voters selected by the Gallup polling organization. The other half came from moderators Anderson Cooper of CNN and Martha Raddatz of ABC News, who had to referee the candidates most heated exchanges.
As Trump sought to make his vaunted "comeback" from his damaging performance in Round One, he showed a greater message discipline, mostly avoiding rhetorical snares of the sort that had him feuding with a former beauty pageant contestant the week before.
In the run-up to the second debate – even before the video – Trump was urged to follow the lead of Pence, who won praise for his calm-under-fire in the vice-presidential debate with Virginia U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine.
But in light of the widespread perception that he lost the first debate, Trump signaled that this time he may "hit her harder" – specifically on Clinton's marriage, which he did. Some aides cautioned against the likely negative repercussions, especially among women, where he faces a significant gender gap in both state and national polls.
But facing questions from an audience of issue-centered voters proved to be an awkward environment for settling scores or relitigating points from the past.
The last questioner asked the candidates to say something they admire about their opponent. Clinton praised Trump's children, saying they reflect well on their father.
Said Trump: "I will say this about Hillary. She doesn't quit, and she doesn't give up. I respect that."

The Strengthening Program of Businesses of Inclusion and Communion in Brazil – PROFOR – has many women as protagonists. Many collaborate with their family in various activities and perceive, for the first time, a decent income. Others have managed to get involved as entrepreneurs, generating income for themselves and sometimes for some employees as well.
Decent work also ensures equal access to work for women and men.
From AMU News I-2018 by Lia Guillen
At the head of the Ex-Cola agricultural project in Rio Grande do Norte is a female entrepreneur who, thanks to the start-up capital and the assistance of Profor, she was able to buy a new truck that helped her in her work. The company was born recently, but is following its schedule, from the cultivation of seedlings, up to the collection and sale of the plants. Currently seven families are involved in the business.
Pizza Jane in Bahia is also run by a woman. In this case, solidarity generated more solidarity: the project consultant in charge of this project offered his work for free and helped the businesswoman to form a network of contacts to support her. This is how the collaboration with a designer is born to develop a logo and to organize a crowd funding campaign. Thanks to all this support, she managed to get out of her vulnerable situation and regain confidence and strength to continue her dream.
Ana Rita is also part of the Profor program, realizing her project "Cuidar de Viver", a social service of accompaniment for elderly or people with disabilities. At the beginning, when she met Profor, the project was just an idea, and then with the help of the trainers, the project started to develop. And after obtaining the different health authorizations, she could begin.
Finally, there is the beauty salon "Graça e Beleza" in Bahia that has had positive results on the financial plan. It was already considered a sustainable business only after 3 months from receiving the capital. The success of the project not only gave a fixed work and a steady income to the owner, previously unemployed and without immediate job prospects. In addition to this, today the activity employs 3 more people with a fixed income.

News Release
Nocatee Community Signs Natural Gas Residential Agreement With TECO Peoples Gas
More than 12,000 new homes to be fueled by natural gas
TAMPA, April 14, 2009
TECO Peoples Gas and The PARC Group today announced that they have signed a master residential developer agreement to include natural gas as a fuel source for approximately 12,300 homes to be built in the town of Nocatee. It is anticipated that up to 90 percent of all of the homes in the Nocatee community will use natural gas when the community is built out, and Peoples Gas will work with individual builders and developers as construction continues throughout Nocatee.
Nocatee is a planned "new town" in northeast Florida - a coastal development that spans northeast St. John's County and southern Duval County near Ponte Vedra Beach, just west of the Intracoastal Waterway.
At a minimum, the energy-efficient homes in the Nocatee communities serviced by Peoples Gas will include eco-friendly natural gas water heaters and two additional natural gas appliances.
"Not only will the residents benefit from the energy savings of natural gas, Florida's environment will benefit as well from the substantial carbon savings," said Bill Cantrell, president of Peoples Gas. "For every natural gas tankless water heater installed instead of an electric unit, more than 3,000 pounds of carbon emissions are saved from the atmosphere each year.
"With 90 percent of the homes in Nocatee using natural gas, more than 16,600 tons of carbon dioxide emissions will be avoided each year. That's the equivalent of the greenhouse gas emissions prevented by recycling nearly 5,200 tons of waste instead of sending it to a landfill or removing nearly 2,800 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles from our roads. We are proud to partner with select communities like Nocatee who share our commitment in protecting the environment," said Cantrell.
"We are pleased to add natural gas as another amenity for our residents and businesses in Nocatee", said Rick Ray, partner with The PARC Group. Natural gas is a very efficient and reliable source of energy and we are confident that it will be an asset to our community."
The Nocatee plan is a balanced approach to development that will provide a wide variety of residential lifestyles, employment opportunities, shopping, schools, civic uses and recreation.
Most recently, Nocatee was named the 2008 Green Community of the Year by the Florida Home Builders Association. In addition, The PARC Group was named Developer of the Year by the Northeast Florida Builders Association in 2007 and 2008 for Nocatee.
TECO Peoples Gas, a division of Tampa Electric Company, is Florida's largest natural gas distribution company, and is one of the four core businesses of TECO Energy, Inc. (NYSE: TE), an energy-related holding company, with regulated utility operations in Florida, including the electric division better known as Tampa Electric and TECO Peoples Gas. TECO Peoples Gas serves approximately 334,000 customers in most of Florida's major metropolitan areas and beyond. Other subsidiaries include TECO Coal Corporation, which owns and operates coal production facilities in Kentucky and Virginia, and TECO Guatemala Inc., which is engaged in electric power generation and distribution and energy-related businesses in Guatemala.

Ratings and Reviews
Spectacular video player
I spent a week trying almost every video player for the iPhone and iPad, and my conclusion is that OPlayer was tied with one other for the most elegant, powerful, and reliable video player. I've loaded it with 100GB of video, and it works flawlessly. The interface is also creative and really nice. And OPlayer runs nicely on both the iPhone and iPad. I rarely write app reviews (I'm busy), but OPlayer has inspired me to take the time to write one. This is an excellent app.
It's now a couple of years later, and I'd like to reiterate what I wrote earlier. But I'd also like to add that using this app has been an even better experience than I'd described earlier! I've changed phones and iPads a couple of times since then, and this app flawlessly synced its content with the new devices when I made the transitions. The other competing app I mentioned above lost all videos each time, despite claiming that it would sync them through iCloud and Mac backup. So this is still the best.
I have only one minor suggestion for it: it has a nice feature that plays a randomly chosen video from the same folder next. Unfortunately, it occasionally plays the same one again. An improved algorithm that orders the videos in advance to avoid this (like the one iTunes uses) would easily solve this very minor problem.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your support, we will keep improving it, you can share OPlayer app to your friends if you want, have a good day!
Count Oplayer Pro as a "Bare Necessity"
Like you, I've tried them all. New apps are released, I give them a shot as well.
Nothing compares to the ease, consistency, and wide range of features and settings that Oplayer has.
It's the best comprehensive media player for iOS, period. Pay the few bucks anually for the full range of features and it's even better.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your support, feel free to share OPlayer app to your friends if you like it, have a good day!
It's a great player. The only thing I wish is if it had a little bit more functionality with the subtitles. Although you can change the font, size, color, and border color, they're still hard to read sometimes. More border adjustments, like weight or shadow/outline, or even better, a dark background box area with adjustable transparency would be great. Anyway, thanks for a great player, makes life with my iPhone so much better.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for your detail feedback. We will consider your suggestions and improve the subtitle functions.
