I saw this show with good seats. I barely smiled. Some of the music is good. Basically, I was bored. The treatment of Africans is shocking. I would be very embarrassed if sitting next to a black person. The Mormon thing was pretty irrelevant to me. The lead characters transcend their Mormonism and are more like any gay innocent guys from the far west as perceived by NYer's. I was surprised that Brantley liked it...but never underestimate the reviewer's need to overly appreciate anything that is different, shocking, controversial.
I've never seen a whole episode of South Park but I doubt this musical is any more controversial than any episode of South Park. It's just on a different medium..so that is apparently exciting to Mr. Brantley. Wow - they can take gutter language, make fun of real critical issues facing people in Africa but do it with Broadway style music. And it's so well rehearsed and professionally tight!
I guess their is talent in the music and the direction and Mr. B was swayed by that and chose to ignore the lack of ethic in the way Africans were portrayed. Ignorance, abuse of women, violence are serious issues in Africa and for them to be trivialized and used for gutter humor is nothing more than White Americans saying that Africans might as well be from another planet. They are so far different from us that they may as well be considered non human. In a country like ours, with our racial history and the number of African Americans living in our country - this attitude can't be acceptable.
Mr. Brantley - I am ashamed of you.

Saw it last night. Probably my favorite musical in 20 years of theater-going. Not sure what all the people here who hated it thought they were getting into. If you're uptight, you won't like it. If you love musicals and have a sense of humor, it's a must-see.

"Why did they not pick Jews, or Evangelicals, or Catholics? Because they know darn well the uproar would have been so loud they would have been run out of town."
This is true, and it says more about our culture than it does about the show's creators.
This show celebrates living. It also demonstrates the power of good intentions and helping others, which, to me, has always been the cornerstone of religion (I'm a Jew) and its greatest offering to the world. It is not intolerant, and those who say so seem to have missed the subtext. It is foul and irreverent, but pure at the soul, and actually made me tear up a little at times.
The issues it brings up about Africa are very real (you might be shocked how much of it is not made up), and when a particularly gruesome scene unfolds, the theater was dead silent. This tells me that the audience, at least the one I was with, was not simply made up of ignorant fans of toilet humor and religion-bashing, which others would have you believe. It was even more telling when I saw the overflowing charity trays on the way out of the theater.
It was brilliant, and it was downright hysterical.

Finally scored tickets to see the show and was quite impressed! I was entertained throughout and left the theatre singing "Tomorrow is a latter day..."
Very funny stuff from the cast, especially Josh Gad who was spot on! I expected a far raunchier show from Matt Stone and Trey Parker (and the show certainly had it's moments), but was impressed with the level of restraint and the story of friendship. Would certainly recommend this show!

"The Book of Mormon" can best be described as the perfect show for agnostics who love songs written by Oscar and Hammerstein and jokes told by seventh-grade boys. Since I fit that description, I thought it was solidly entertaining. I'm an occasional watcher of Comedy Central's long-running cartoon series "South Park," which a few years ago offered a very funny treatment of the Joseph Smith story (recounted when a disturbingly perfect Mormon family moves in to the town of South Park). Because the "South Park" creators wrote and directed "The Book of Mormon," I had high hopes for the show's hilarity.
It was outrageously funny in places, mostly in the first act. The "Turn It Off" number, with some terrific tap dancing done in the dark, was about the need for Mormon elders to bury their doubts and earthly desires for their two-year stint as missionaries – and for one elder in particular to bury his homosexuality. This number was a particular favorite of mine. The songs overall were terrific: catchy and fun and sung with a kind of gee-willikers earnestness that is laughable but endearing – and definitely Mormon. Halfway through the second act, however, the total lack of constraint on obscenities and on taboos began to seem more like a liability than an asset to the show, and I realized that part of the reason the "South Park" episode about Mormonism was so fun was because television (including cable television) imposes some limitations. By the end of "The Book of Mormon" it became clear that even a musical about how misguided and potentially harmful religious constraints are can nonetheless benefit from artistic constraints.

The audience at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre erupts in riotous laughter every time the notorious F-word is spoken or sung. This happens many times, thus ensuring a frequent eruption of laughter. One has the impression of little boys gleefully getting away with being naughty. Grown-ups of either sex (including me, a female grown-up) may not be quite so amused. Haven't we all heard that word fairly often?
To be sure, there are funny moments in this show, there are catchy songs and several production numbers very well executed. But for me at least, these elements were not worth paying $150+ and spending 2.5 hours in a painfully tight, uncomfortable seat. (I am small and thin; larger people would be tortured.) When such material appears on television, one can simply follow the advice of one of this show's songs: Turn It Off.
Are there people who consider female genital mutilation funny? Who are those people? They must either be those who don't understand what female "circumcision" actually means or else little boys of all ages. I wonder, which is Brantley?

Reading the outrage in some of these reviews makes me smile. The show was much milder than expected and could have skewered Mormonism far more viciously (just see the Mormon South Park Episode).
So while I was disappointed that Matt and Trey didn't really go for the jugular (Cmon, Mormons, can't you take a joke?) the show is still a lot of fun and definitely a must-see, if only for the "Small House of Uncle Thomas" parody!

This has to be my favorite musical comedy and I have seen them all. It had me totally engaged as the musical numbers swiftly unfolded and kept topping each other. I laughed so hard throughout as did most of the audience. Not one dull moment. I am seeing it again in 2 weeks and can't wait. Highest recommendation for this fresh and thrilling work. Tony awards all around!!!

Don't even try to make sense of the love affair between New York City and The Book of Mormon. This is a place with the most sensitive minorities in the country.
Remember when Jesse Jackson was overheard referring to New York as "Hymietown." Over the uproar from the Jewish community, Jackson was lucky to escape being exiled to Palestine.
And last year when some media person of little account made a dumb crack about gay actors not being effective in love scenes with straight actresses (guess he never caught Larry Kert in the original West Side Story), the gay community exploded with rage about these "haters" and Kristin Chenoweth found the perfect spot to mend fences with the gays (for appearing on Pat Robertson's right wing show and getting labeled as anti-gay) by making a public statement of outrage.
And how much of a poke at the pope does it take to send William Donahue charging onto the field?
And yet these hyper-sensitive minorities don't give a lick about the small and unpopular Mormon religion (and really all Christian religions) having its beliefs and practices ridiculed in a Broadway show. In fact they say that the show is really "sweet" towards the Mormons.
Granted that the quality of the production is very good. The production numbers and the score are something that most musical lovers have longed to see in an original musical. Unfortunately the dialog and songs are so laced with obscenity and blasphemy that only a smidgen of the show likely to be awarded the Best Musical Tony can be shown to the general public.
So does a big hit musical justify the insults directed at the Mormons? ("sweet" insults) Apparently it does, at least in New York. But will it play in Peoria?

The "willing suspension of disbelief" was one of the first tenets of theater I learned in college over 25 years ago. With that in mind, people here need to lighten up a bit and perhaps reread Ben Brantley's review. The show really is an hommage to so may other traditional musicals through from about the 1950's and really is a love story to musicals the same way The Drowsy Chaperone was as well.
I am a Sondheim fanatic -- he is pure genius of music that tells the story as much as do the lyrics. This show, by contrast, has production numbers but they really are show stopping and the juxtaposition of old fashioned tap dancing and choreography with the content of the songs is what makes it all so appealing and hilarious.
And you couldn't just insert Jews or other religions in this place because the story is about what Mormons do -- Jews don't do this -the Jewish religion is not an evangelical one (at least it is not supposed to be and that is an entirely different conversation). As a piece of theater, this show is extremely straightforward and reminds us why we love musicals. Fyi, I recently went to hear Sondheim interviewed in Toronto and he thinks South Pacific is entirely ridiculous/mocking/disrespectful --- Happy Talk??

I have to give them a lot of credit, they have written a tight, clever and ridiculously funny show. If you want to see it any time soon I suggest you take a moment and get on line and get your tickets now. It's selling out quickly and months in advance. Once it cleans up at the Tony Awards in a couple of weeks (as all trends seem to be indicating) tickets will only be harder and more expensive to get.
The show pushes and frequently hurdles, with feet to spare, the boundaries of propriety and good taste but usually I was laughing too hard to notice. The insidious thing about this show is that underneath all the humor and inappropriateness they're exploring some basic ontological questions about the nature of faith and the role of organized religion in modern society. You could probably replace most freshman level theology courses with this show, and class enrolment would increase tenfold.

Yes, the religious satire is hilarious, but the sweetness comes when religious convictions inspire the protagonists, finally, to do good. Most religious beliefs, when you scratch the surface, border on the ridiculous, and require suspension of normal skepticism, but when people do good unto the least of their brethren in the name of whatever god they worship...well, it makes it easier to overlook the absurdity.
Fantastic, funny show. So glad I jumped on it the moments the reviews came out and was able to get orchestra seats this past Saturday night. I loved it so much that after I raved about it to a friend who will be in NY in September, I bought tickets for the two of us.
A weeknight, alas, in the mezzanine, but I felt lucky to get anything!

It should come was no surprise that it took three partners to write The Book Of Morman. It should come as less of a surprise that the result of this marriage of these three has teamed to create a tight, intensely funny and joyous musical comedy. The author took a voyage on Satire One. They passed through Avenue Q, spent some some tine in South Beach and then landed in Uganda. Not exacly a direct route but what joy we get when they land there.The book is ingenuous and funny. The music and lyrics are witty and delightful.The choreography is crisp and exciting and the cast is a blast.What a trip. And what a pleasure to by piloted in by such young talents as Josh Gad, Andrew Rannells and Nikki M. James. The show's a hoot from start to finish. What is a surprise is that my wife and I, who agree on little theatrically, both loved it.

Saw "Book of Mormon" and found it to be as good a theatrical experience as people have indicated. However, on reflection, I find it troubling that the subject of slaughter by an African dictator, AIDS, poverty of a sort we can barely understand, mutilation of females, living with sewage, and religious satire can provoke laughter. Perhaps I should lighten up a bit, but I didn't see "The Producers" because I believe there is absolutely nothing funny - not even one iota - about Hitler or the Holocaust (and I'm not Jewish, if that matters). Skewering religion is easy but I understand when tornadoes rip through a town and people turn to religion as their only source of comfort.

So loud I could barely understand the lyrics while I yearned for a quiet ballad. Performers demanding you love them and subject matter that repeats itself and is difficult to laugh at. Uganda?! Physical production quite ugly. Barely satisfying - I couldn't wait 'til it was over. Felt the same about "Catch Me If You Can."

As a young boy growing up in B.C. Canada I remember everyone making fun of a girl who came straight from India. I was 10 years old and she was the joke of the school. Her name was Harjinder. She wore an Indian Sari to school and had trouble speaking English. I didn't feel it was decent of kids to tease her and mock her dress, religion or color of her skin. I felt sorry for her mistreatment. Lunch and recess must have been very painful for her. However, day after day people made fun of her because she was different. Has society become this insensitive?
It is a lower level of humanity to mock others. I am disappointed that athiests have created a play about my religion. I would never go to or support a film, play or media that mocks others or their beliefs. I wouldn't attend a play making light of other nationalities, religions, races or sexual orientation. This will encourage racism and bigotry. The Romans managed to get to such a low level of humanity that they actually used humans as live candles dipped in tar to light the way into the Colosseum.
It is upsetting to my wife, myself and my family to see our religion mocked. We hold the very name of the Savior as sacred. We believe in Christ and testify of Him daily. We love this Gospel with all our hearts. Do you enjoy making fun of my beliefs? If so, are you any different that a school child mocking someone for being different? We believe all men will be held accountable after this life for how they treat others and for their personal transgressions.
Yes, we can laugh at a friendly joke about our religion. However, making fun of our scriptures, Lord, beliefs and sacred doctrine is another issue. Where is the humanity and decency? Did you know the Nazi's put on anti-Jewish plays? They were hits in Germany prior to the bigotry and Jewish round-ups. Was that okay? When has it gone to far? Shame on those that support this lower level of humanity. What has society come to??

Andrew Rannells should have won the Tony for his spot-on, gee willikers performance. If you haven't seen the show yet, you can at least watch him perform "I Believe" from the Tony broadcast (any of the video sharing sites would have it at this point). And if you need an explanation of the stranger (and funnier) theological points that that particular number sends up, you can get it at bookofmormonstories.blogspot.com.
Mr. Stone, Mr. Parker, and Mr. Lopez (none of whom are Mormons) really did their homework, and some gems of jokes in the play are only funny if you have a decent knowledge of Mormon theology. But even if you don't, the show is a hoot. My only complaint is that part way though the second act it does what so many "South Park" episodes do - it veers off into a weird, supernatural dream sequence that is just confusing and doesn't add much. Here it's called "Crazy Mormon Hell Dream," but, like such sequences in "South Park" episodes, it's packed with Nazis and devils and other unrelated things. The only redeeming thing about the dream sequence is when giant cups of coffee twirl around (Mormons can't drink coffee).

Right from the initial overamplified blast of dialog followed by the second blasting of music you thought you
made a wrong turn and arrived at a rock concert rather than a well conceived and executed broadway
MUSICAL., which this show is.
It is really a shame that directors and sound technicians think that high volume is appreciated by most theatre goers, and can act as a substitute for quality, and that once exposed to this sound level the irritation persists and significantly diminishes enjoyment.
In addition it almost sounder like the performers were lip syncing since all the sound came through speakers. I just hope that this practice does not become the norm for all shows to come.

As I see it The Book of Mormon is a Racist sewer pit.
The issue isn't Mormons at all. Any religious doctrine can be made fun if taken in isolation. The essential and offensive key to "The Book of Mormon" wasn't religion but race.
Since the Ugandans (Africans) are depicted as primitive savages right out of a 1940′s Tarzan movie it is interesting to see how few people are actually offended by their treatment.
Unfortunately elites like South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone can afford to laugh and mock poor Black people in Africa without fear of reprisal; but shouldn't we see the dishonor and disgust of accepting fallacious stereotypes that literally caused the deaths of millions of humanbeings over the last 100 years?
I know what you are saying, well what about the play, wasn't it all in humor? Maybe I am being to "sensitive' right? Hmmm perhaps I am and I am willing to be cordial; let me share with you some of the underlying jokes or themes that were continually repeated thought the production and see if you find them funny.
Well let's see Africans constantly and indiscriminatingly chopping women's clitoris off for sport, yea that is hilarious. That was a hum dinger of a laugher to me, aren't you rolling over after reading that one?
Or did you hear the one about … how Big African men raping babies is hilarious, because these big dumb morons are so superstitious, that they actually believe that the raping of babies would cure them of AIDS! Yea that is a real knee slapper, right!!!
Or maybe you heard the real funny one about how African medicine is so primitive and incompetent that even their own doctors have maggots living in their scrotum, their Scrotum! Whoopee, now that one alone had me literally falling down in the aisles.
What Parker and Stone have created here as far as their depiction of Africans is concerned isn't satire, it is sick. You satire that which you know, otherwise it isn't satire at all.
It is a sickness that people would laugh at others pain. It is simple, I was offended and saddened that in the year 2011 theater goers could see this demeaning portrayal of Africans as anything other than as offensive

If you're lucky enough to have seen this hilarious show, you can only shake your head at those damning it for not observing the dictates of political correctness. Did they not know this was from the guys who brought you South Park? Would they ban "Under the Banner of Heaven" too, for its unflattering (and scholarly) depiction of Mormonism? And the racially hysterical James of New York misses a major point: by the end, the Africans are shown to be far wiser than the white characters about the purpose of religion.
Brantley is dead-on in noting the similarities to Rodgers & Hammerstein, both in content and spirit. "I Believe" quotes directly from Julie Andrews' "I Have Confidence" anthem in "The Sound Of Music", and "Joseph Smith American Moses" is a dirty, side-splittingly funny reference to "Small House of Uncle Thomas" from "The King and I".
"Mormon" acknowledges that humans have a shared, natural desire to seek a transcendent explanation for life and its challenges, and embraces those who do, be they Mormons, Ugandans, whoever. It's a rich, new, satisfying musical with a quick mind, a sailor's mouth and a heart of gold.

How this won that maTonies is beyond me. One reviewer says that is racist, I would says no more than South Park is, and let's face most of American entertainment over the past 100 years in some way has had racist overtones. We are what we are and we love to sort out the differences and make fun of them. We really don't like each other very much and there is little hope that we ever will. My Grand'mother said during the civil rights movement that you can change the laws, but not people's mind. The Book of Mormon is the proof. There was hope for and on broadway during the Golden Era, 40's, 50, and 60's, Broadway had class, now broadway tries to be a trashy as a south central rapper. I can say that because I am black. There was something about going to NY and seeing a show with elegant people, and having the creator's expand to our horizon, instead of lowering themselves to our baser instinct to mock each other. Thank God we still hae people like Sondheim around, i don't know what will happen to the Great White Way when he is gone. Oh Yeah, Disney.

obviously not for the overly sensitive politically correct crowd (curiously a combination of the upper west side lefties and staunch red state righties). Amazingly, it appears that this show is the one thing that can bring these two groups of rigid idealogues together
a hilariously outrageous and funny show

I watched this show with a friend and we talked about it afterward. My friend was not familiar with South Park and so he was greatly offended by this show. I love South Park so I went about explaining to him exactly why this show is brilliant.
With Trey Parker and Matt Stone there are two types of humor:
1. Slightly Crass humor where they take pot shots at someone or something, look at Paris Hilton and other such celebrities on South Park.
2. Offensive humor where Trey Parker and Matt Stone glorify a person or group by destroying them.
This play is the second kind of humor. Trey Parker and Matt Stone are very near glorified nihilists who really do not have any beliefs. This is fine, I believe they love the lives they lead and would not have it any other way. However, in every nihilist there is a small part of them that wishes they could believe, just like every believer sometimes wishes they could break free of their strict belief when it takes a tole on them. This show does not bash Mormons, it glorifies them, or at least the first three quarters. Here are two kids who truly believe something and go halfway across the world to preach their belief. Once they get there the belief they so strictly hold on to is tested, but they never sway and they never falter.
Speaking as a slight nihilist myself, I left this show with a small thought in the back of my mind: "I really wish I could believe in something as strong as the Mormons believe in their religion." This kind of humor is not out of anger or malice, but out of jealousy. Trey Parker and Matt Stone are very self aware and know that they are jealous, which why this show speaks more of its true message to a non-believer like me than it does to actual Mormons.
As for the parts about Africa, that was crass humor (the first one). However, I guarantee you no one took it seriously. Speaking as someone from Alabama, which is one of the most made fun of states, I really do not think there is any reason for offense.

Sioux Falls, S.D. (KELO-AM) – State officials are advising motorists that travel may become difficult, if not impossible, today across much of South Dakota as a strong spring snow storm moves across the state.
The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning from the Northern Hills to just west of Mobridge with snowfall totals from 7-12". Heavy snow from 7-10" in northwest South Dakota is also expected.
A blizzard watch is in effect from central portions of the state across to the northeast. Depending how the storm moves through the state and snowfall amounts, the watch could be upgraded to a warning in this area.
Rain and sleet will turn over to snow during the overnight hours and during the day on Monday as the storm moves from west to east. Areas of northeast South Dakota, especially in the Sisseton Hills area on I-29, could see up to ¼ inch of ice before the snow starts to fall.
Strong winds from 25-35 mph, with gusts of 40-50, mph may cause near-zero visibility, snow-packed and slippery roadways and possible drifting snow.
"Blizzard conditions will make travel extremely difficult, if not impossible, throughout much of South DakotaSunday night and throughout the day on Monday," says Darin Bergquist, secretary of the Department of Transportation. "Conditions may deteriorate rapidly as the storm moves across the state and people should make plans to stay put or extend their stay on Monday until conditions improve."
People who must travel should drive with extreme caution and are encouraged to visit www.safetravelusa.com/sd or dial 511 to check the latest road conditions and travel advisories before heading out.

"I live on Bainbridge and I am a huge fan of Christmas in the Country, primarily the participation by Kathy Countryman. Christmas in the Country is one of those great community traditions that seem rarer with every passing year. It was one of the first things that I enjoyed with my kids when we first moved to the island after ten years in downtown Seattle. They still both remember their first pony ride at Countryman's Stables – one of my daughters now rides there regularly and I think it was because of one special Christmas afternoon. What I remember best is how nice it felt to drive around this lovely island and see some charming art, listen to various artists, see how many people just donated their time and opened their houses, and feel how special it is to live in a true community as opposed to a specific geographic location." Sheila Hughes of One Reel, a nonprofit organization that produces the Bumbershoot Festival in Seattle
This beautiful and historic log cabin was originally constructed as a Boy Scout camp in 1935 by unemployed island residents through Franklin D. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration. Built of mostly local materials, the cabin served as a scout camp for generations of Bainbridge Islanders. In 1942 the camp was used as the US Army 202nd Coast Artillery's Bainbridge Island headquarters. At that time a bathhouse was constructed where the Camp Yeomalt Classroom stands today. Many Park District art classes, youth arts and science workshops and summer camps are held here.

Greetings fellow Home Control users!
I think this Home Control has the potential for becoming a great feature. Right now, I just have the incandescent lamp module for lighting control and I find it to be not particularly useful because you have to bend way over behind the lamp stand to turn on the light if you left the device in the OFF state before turning off the switched outlet from the wall switch. The point being I want and need the ability to turn the lights on and off in the usual way at the wall switch but also would like the option to use the z-wave control. The solution would be to purchase a Z-Wave wall switch (2 way or 3 way) from GE, Leviton, or one of the other suppliers and replace the wall switch with the Z-Wave switch. Has anyone done this yet with the Verizon system and if so, how well does it work for you? Thanks.
As nice as it would be to have a z-wave wall switch Verizon does not offer them now and if you don't buy it from Verizon then you can't use it on their system. There are plenty of z-wave products on the market but unless Verizon sells it to you it will not connect to their Gateway.
I sure hope they are working on expanding their product line or allowing us to buy from who we want and be able to connect to their system. Hint hint Verizon
That's funny because no less than two sales reps told me that I could buy an Z-wave Schlage lock from any reseller (such as our local home warehouse stores) and it would work with this system. I ended up buying it from Verizon though, because it was actually a little cheaper and more convenient to have it sent to the home. I just assumed that this would apply to more than locks. I must say that if this turns out to be the case, I will not continue my service simply because they don't sell built-in 3 way and 2 way switches that can control CFLs or ceiling fans. $10 a month is kind of expensive to just get a text every time one of the kids unlocks the front door. I was hoping I could operate lights, but those stupid plug-ins aren't useful for much of anything. It's very undignified to have to bend way over and reach behind a lamp stand to push a button on the outlet plug-in to turn on a table lamp when what I really need is to be able to control the hall and kitchen ceiling lights. I'll give it a try and see what happens. I can always return a GE or Leviton switch to Home D if it won't enroll.
Please report your results back if / when you try. I'm very interested in the home monitoring, but I want more capacity than the products available through Vz (switches, outlets, garage door opener...)
Short story, based on my experience below, is that devices outside of what's purchased from Verizon aren't currently supported.
After I hooked up my home monitoring and control system I couldn't find any info about supporting other devices either, so I purchased a GE Z-Wave Wireless Lighting Control Dimmer Switch. I got it locally so that I could return it if it didn't work.
I had hopes, because for one, when I installed my thermostat I didn't click through the icon on the add devices page, and it added an additional thermostat. There's still a spot for one on the Devices Settings page saying "Device has been shipped - Setup Device" because I didn't click through it the first time. I didn't realize I had to because I got the hang of using the remote to pair after setting up the other devices. So, with this behavior, I thought as long as the system can recognize the exact device you could potentially add others (now I don't know how far Verizon goes, but they could even be working with manufacturers on specific devices codes to keep the system locked down and proprietary). This particular GE dimmer switch appears to be made by Jasco, who also seems to make the plug-in light module offered by Verizon. I was hoping this similarity may help make it recognizable by Verizon.
Since I had my doubts, I very carefully setup a little test scenario with romex and a couple replacement plugs rather than going through the trouble of fully replacing a light switch. I went through the procedure of pairing it with the remote, which seemed normal. I went back to my computer and the Verizon page had a pop-up that suggested a device had been added, but there were no options to name and configure it. I tried several times, but no luck.
I think what's happening is that the z-wave components, like the gateway and remote are pairing with the device. However, on the Verizon side, they don't know what it is and how to handle it, so it can't really do anything about it until it's programmed into the system to be supported. From what I understand of the z-wave protocol each type of device has a specific device code. Since there's a variety of different devices, they each have a set of instructions to communicate back and forth. I can see how initially it's overwhelming to support a long list of devices and keep it user friendly, but hope that they'll continue to grow it.
I agree with everybody else here, that built-in devices like this will really make the system useful. Otherwise being limited to plug-in devices doesn't offer enough of a whole home control solution to do much with. Even before I signed up with the verizon service I was researching MiCasaVerde which seems to be much more expansive, but slightly more DIY. The key difference is that you have to purchase the gateway for like $200-300, but don't pay monthly. If the verizon thing doesn't pan out, I might switch to that, and hope my devices (which appear identical) will work. In that case, I don't feel too bad because the bundle price was competitive, I'd just miss out on the integration Verizon is adding.
Gee thanks jdp83....(LOL).. spent the last hour looking at MiCasaVerde's web site. You are correct, while they are a tad more expensive they have the following paragraph that Verizon should take notice of (Hello Verizon?)
... Guaranteed compatibility with ALL Z-Wave devices – Includes deadbolt locks, scene controllers, all kinds of sensors and lighting, thermostats, energy metering and more. Vera lets you can take advantage of everything the Z-Wave world offers, and also the ability to add in IP cameras, some alarm panels, IR devices, Control4 and more.
If Verizon wants to lock down its devices, as it has, and not offer a decent selection, which it does not, have then I can see myself moving to and recommending a product like MiCasaVerde also. I love my Verizon FIOS and am thrilled that something like Home Monitoring has come along but somewhere in the Verizon hierarchy someone has decided that they must have full control of their products up to and including disabling things like audio on the cameras sold then not bothering to either inform us when or even if more z-wave products will be offered by them for sale.
Yes, It appears that the lack of support for different products is a programming issue on Verizon end. This system is in its infancy and Verizon (HELLLOO VERIZON!!) needs to get on the ball and improve the software end of this. I have found the software/web portal for this to be very glitchy. It not only makes the product difficult to install but also I find the cameras often do not either detect motion or record or even say they recorded and never do. I have also had problems with recordings not being accessible or corrupted. I may switch to Verde if Verizon doesn't make involvements and SOON!
I wish it did. I need on/off control of wall switches so I can control my outdoor lights. Kinda stinks to have home control that is way behind other home control systems using the same technology. I am debating sending it back. I was under the impression that you could use any zwave component..but no.
I got really frustrated because the phone app was really slow and kept getting errors when accessing my camera so I just purchaseed a MiCasaVerde Vera 3 controller and absolutely love it - going to cancel my service with Verizon. I am able to use the lamp module just fine that came with the starter kit but have not tried the camera yet. To date, I have replaced all my light switches and all is working perfectly. Fully expandable and works with my Filtrete thermostat I got from Home Depot as well...Verizon needs to offer more functionality with their gateway for sure because for the 299.00 the MiCasaVerde Vera 3 possibilities are endless...AND everything works as designed.
You will be able to use any ZWAVE devices later this month I am told - good news

The old guest book is back!
There has been a guest book on Almonte.com since 1998. In recent years it hasn't been used all that much, and so I decided to retire it when I launched the new version of the site.
But since then I've heard from a number of folks who miss the guest book, so I've put it back.

I like the idea of architecture by someone other than an architect. It gives perspective, a new approach, an alternative...
Let me get this straight… it's innovative AND off the grid? And here I thought those two were mutually exclusive.
Neat idea! Now make it affordable to purchase/construct, and you've got a fantastic business!
If only I had the Nissan leaf

Gatland wants Super Rugby job
Wales and British and Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland has hinted that he has a strong desire to coach at Super Rugby level one day.
Gatland hinted that the Chiefs head coaching role would be enough to lure him back to New Zealand.
He coached Waikato from 2005 to 2007 in New Zealand's National Provincial Championship before starting his coaching stint with Wales.
Although no certain plans have been made and the role at the Chiefs is unlikely to become available after Dave Rennie guided the Hamilton-based outfit to their first title this year, Gatland has a fondness for Waikato, who he also represented in 140 matches as a hooker from 1986 to 1994.
"I'm not going to be here forever," he told Fairfax Media.
"When I do leave Welsh rugby I hope I leave it in a better state than when I arrived.
"I'd like to go back to coach in New Zealand. It's not something I plan for. If the opportunity arises and it's the right opportunity I'll definitely look at it.
"At some stage being involved in Super Rugby would be a challenge. I've been lucky enough to have done Waikato in the NPC.
"That was great. I had some involvement as a technical and assistant coach with the Chiefs, but to be able to have a head role...it may happen sometime in the future."
Gatland is contracted to Wales until the next World Cup in 2015 and although he is realistic about gaining a job in New Zealand he is keen to signal his interest if an opening should arise.
"The thing about New Zealand is, compared to Europe, there's not a lot of jobs," he explained.
"There's five Super Rugby teams and the All Blacks job. It depends on who is contracted and who is available.
"You've got to be at the right place and right time to get appointed and earn a job in New Zealand. I'm well aware of that. We'll see what happens.
"The next couple of years I'll start making some plans."

In the law of torts, malpractice is an "instance of negligence or incompetence on the part of a professional".[1]
Types include medical malpractice ("A doctor's failure to exercise the degree of care and skill that a physician or surgeon of the same medical specialty would use under similar circumstances") and legal malpractice ("A lawyer's failure to render professional services with the skill, prudence, and diligence that an ordinary and reasonable lawyer would use under similar circumstances.").[2]
Efforts to expand the concept of malpractice to other so-called "professional" fields like education have utterly failed. The main rationale for rejecting "educational malpractice" is that it is impossible to develop a workable standard of care for educators; most persons do not accomplish their educational objectives for external reasons beyond the educator's control; and allowing such a cause of action would enable every person who does not become rich, famous, and/or incredibly successful (i.e., the vast majority of people) to sue their teachers.[3]

The Word: Video: DJ Khaled proposes to Nicki Minaj
Lots of guys put videos of their quirky, unique proposals on YouTube these days. Nothing weird about that. Of course, most of those guys include the woman they're proposing to in those videos.
DJ Khaled went a different route in this video he made with MTV, in which he asks Nicki Minaj to marry him. Khaled says he would have asked her face to face, but "I understand that you're busy."
The rapper says he and his prospective bride have a lot in common. "We both got the same symptoms. We both suffer from success," he says.
Khaled says repeatedly that he's serious, and if this is a joke he doesn't telegraph it. The giant diamond ring he pulls out looks serious as a heart attack. But here's one clue there's more going on: "Suffering From Success" is the name of his next album.
Mariah Carey will not be returning to "American Idol" next season as a judge, she announced. Not to be outdone, her co-star (and occasional sparring partner) Nicki Minaj also announced her exit a few hours later.
Mariah and Nicki had some personality clashes early in the show, but seemed to get along better by the end — probably to the consternation of "Idol" producers, since the show has always seemed to benefit from a bit of friction between judges.

Fuel Economy (city/hwy)
Flash Drive: 2010 Mazda Mazda6
This 2010 review is representative of model years 2009 to 2013.
By Staff of MSN Autos
View Pictures: 2010 Mazda Mazda6
When Mazda updated the Mazda6 midsize sedan with its latest design language (exaggerated front fender arches and a large grille opening), it was done in a classy way. The profile reveals a sporty slope to the roofline. The interior design is really appealing — it's sporty, yet not overdone, with a nice use of shapes and textures; plus, the cloth material on the seats has a nice pattern and multicolored black and gray inserts. What's perplexing about this car is that it doesn't fully deliver on the sporty driving dynamics expected from Mazda. It's still more fun to drive than a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord, but it's no Mazda3. With the 170-horsepower 2.5-liter engine, it's not underpowered, but it feels underpowered even with an excellent 5-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode. It does deliver combined fuel economy in the mid 20s, which is the point. –Mike Meredith
To enhance fuel efficiency, many car companies are starting to offer larger cars with smaller engines. This works for some, but it doesn't in the Mazda6. It is a good-sized sedan — interior space is plentiful, with lots of rear-seat legroom and a large trunk — easily meeting the needs of most families. It's also a great-looking car, with bold fender flares and angular headlights that give the Mazda6 a powerful look. But the power under the hood is somewhat lacking. The 170 horses work when there's not much load, and the goal of good fuel economy is realized, with a rating of 30 mpg on the highway. But of all the Mazdas I've driven, this is the first that just didn't seem to have that "Zoom-Zoom." The slightest acceleration or smallest incline seemed to really task the engine — downshifts happened often, keeping the engine working hard and loud. Yes, fuel efficiency is important, but it's a shame to lose so much performance for a gain of a few miles per gallon. –Perry Stern
I'm baffled that Mazda can make a wonderful small car like the Mazda3, but completely fail to make an interesting or particularly good midsize sedan. The Mazda6 has never been very good. The new model year doesn't bring any improvements in exterior styling, and the engine doesn't feel strong enough for the car. Inside, the materials don't offer much luxury; in fact, they are a little dark and depressing. Overall, the Mazda6 is certainly functional, but not very inspired. –Paul Hagger

Going all the way to Orleans to play in a hockey tournament isn't so bad, unless you end up spending a good time of your trip in the penalty box. The Mashpee-Upper Cape Tech boys' ice hockey team very well could have won the championship at this year's Kostas Tournament at the Charles Moore Arena this past weekend, but too many trips to the sin bin proved very costly, especially when it mattered most.
The Falcons (1-3-1) accumulated far too many penalties when it mattered most, and it cost them dearly in the title game against Cape Tech/Cape Cod Academy. With Mashpee cited for five penalties in the third period, the Crusaders took advantage of the depleted Falcons as they rallied from behind to score four times in the third period to win the Kostas championship game by a 5-3 score.
Mashpee/Upper Cape held the lead through the first two periods and was seemingly in control. The Falcons got goals from Ben Daigneault and Brandon Nolan in the first period to stake themselves to a 2-0 lead, as they outshot the Crusaders by a 13-4 margin during the first 15 minutes. Daigneault's goal was a tip-in of an Eric Garrison shot after Aidan Sullivan had passed it over for the initial bid. Nolan was set up by Brian Holmes, who dug the puck out of the corner and fed it to the slot for a quick shot by Nolan. "We've been looking for him to get that shot off more, and he got one there," head coach Shawn Chicoine said.
The penalties began to pile up in the second period for the Falcons. They were called for infractions during the stanza, and CCT/CCA cut into the lead with one goal, cutting the advantage to 2-1 heading into the third.
After a slow first five minutes in the third period, the final frame got crazy. CCT/CCA scored to tie the game up at the 5:34 mark, but then Mashpee roared right back to reclaim the lead just 40 seconds later when Robert Fluke was set up by Joe Mackie and Nolan.
With a 3-2 lead in tow, things were looking good for the Falcons, but then the penalties began to pile up again. MHS/UCT was called for five penalties in the third period, which led to a pair of power play goals and a comeback by the Crusaders, who netted three straight goals to win the game, netting them at 7:08, 7:25 and 12:22.
"When you're battling through penalties, you can't get anything going," Chicoine said. "Sean Kelso had a few good chances, but for the most part we were struggling."
Chicoine said his team learned a valuable lesson about working hard for three periods in the championship game, noting that his team's failure to skate hard all the way and keep their feet moving led to the penalties for grabbing, holding and hooking. "Hopefully we won't have to learn it again," he said.
In the first round of the tourney, on Friday, the Falcons played Pope John Paul II for the second time this year, with the follow-up game to their 5-4 win resulting a 2-2 draw. Mashpee won a shootout to advance in the winner's bracket of the tournament, since the MIAA does not sanction regular season overtime periods.
PJP2 went out early to take a 1-0 lead in the first period, but the Falcons rallied back to tie it up when Cam Ventre finished a feed from Sullivan with 42 seconds left in the first to knot the count at one aside.
Neither team scored in the second period. MHS/UCT staked itself to a 2-1 lead early in the third, at the 3:12 mark, when Sullivan opened up some space and fired in an unassisted goal. PJP2 struck back with 3:23 left in regulation to knot the score and send the game to OT.

Neither team was able to find the back of the net during the five-minute four-on-four extra session, which resulted in the team's going to a shootout. Ventre's first bid was stopped, but Daigneault and Sullivan each sniped one in on the following two chances to get the win. Tony Visconte made all the saves in the net during the shootout and had a strong all-around game between the pipes for MHS/UCT.
The Falcons were scheduled to host Nantucket High School at the Kennedy Rink in Hyannis yesterday afternoon, but the game was postponed to a later date, which has not yet been announced, due to the impending storm.
Tomorrow the Falcons are slated to host Rockland High School (4-2-1, 1-1 SSL) at 5:30 PM in Hyannis. On Sunday morning the team will visit The Bog, in Kingston, to face Cohasset High School (6-1, 2-0 SSL) for the second time this year. CHS won the first meeting, two weeks ago, by a 5-1 score in Hyannis.

It's Show Time
Mid-South Farm & Gin Show Set For Feb. 29-March
Carroll G. Smith
The Gin Show has evolved into a forum for people to get together and not just look at products and services but to take a hard look at where the agricultural industry is going," says Tim Price, executive vice president of the Southern Cotton Ginners Association. "The theme for this year's Gin Show may be 'Meeting the Challenges of Tomorrow by Taking Opportunities Today.'
"At the same time, we are showcasing innovative solutions – a showcase of American agriculture – that I think help producers think down the road as they try to plan and change," he adds.
The popular Ag Updates will be held again this year on Friday and Saturday. On Friday, Larry McClendon will discuss cotton issues, and the market updates and outlook on wheat and rice will feature Carl Brothers. Joe Nicosia will present the cotton outlook. On Saturday, popular market analyst Richard Brock will provide his unique perspective on commodity and energy markets and the economy, as well as his perspective on the race for the White House.
A special seminar – Energy: Changing Agriculture and Its Future – will be held Saturday at 1 p.m.
"Energy affects the crops we grow and our future planning as the demand for bio-based energy products continues," Price says. "This seminar will address both areas and provide farmers crucial information on how to respond."
In addition to the Ag Updates and Energy Seminar, more than 400 exhibitors from 48 states and five foreign countries will occupy over 200,000 square feet of exhibit space in the Memphis Cook Convention Center. Show attendees will see a greater number of farm equipment manufacturers, specialized services, the latest in seed varieties and new technologies in precision farming software and services.
In the equipment arena, of special interest to cotton producers will be the new cotton harvesters. Case IH and John Deere will have the Case IH Module Express 625 and the John Deere 7760 Self-Propelled Cotton Picker, respectively, displayed on the showroom floor.
Exhibit hours at the Mid-South Farm & Gin Show are Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Visitors who view the exhibit areas are eligible for prizes, which will be awarded each afternoon – $2,000 in attendance prizes awarded daily.
Prior to the Gin Show, the Southern Cotton Ginners Association (SCGA) will holds its annual meeting on Thursday, Feb. 28, at 1:30 p.m. at the Peabody Hotel. Speakers will be Kater Hake, Tommy Valco and John Lewis.
