Installed, and it does show a feed from my twitter account but its out of date and does not update with anything new.
Installed, and it does show a feed from my twitter account but its out of date and does not update with anything new.
Usually when a feed isn't updating it's because you've hit your API request limit on Twitter. The limit is by IP, not site. Which means that if you're on shared hosting, all the other sites on your IP (usually at LEAST your server, possibly several servers) all count against the same limit. You start with 150 requests per hour (Twitter Widget Pro can use up to 20 per hour), but bad behavior (like slamming Twitter with requests) can get your limit lowered or even get your IP blacklisted.
If you're running the latest version of the plugin (2.4.0), you can go to "WP Admin->Settings->Twitter Widget" and there is a section that shows your limit, as well as the number of requests used and when the limit will reset. If your limit is being reached quickly, consider asking your host to move you to a server with a different IP.
Same problem. I reached the 150 limit. Is there anyway to have daily update instead of every 5 minutes, so it could work ?
The problem is that the limit is based on your IP. Unless you're tracking a bunch of different users with different widgets, then the usage is mostly from OTHER people on your server(s). It will try every 5 minutes and if it succeeds even just once a day it'll update once a day.
Agree - But now I am having a problem with UPDATE LOCKS occuring. I am posting to twitter once daily, BUT just checked and my twitter widget on my website is 6 days old. Checked & sure enough - there is a UPDATE LOCK. I greatly dislike having to "babysit" technology. When it works, it works great - will update for several days even a week or 2, then it freezes and after checking, it's ALWAYS the lock.
Yes, I am only using Twitter API via HTTP (not HTTPS) as per the note
On the API Usage, the host I use now is such that my 150 will be used up in about 10 mins. I have watched several times and it is consistent - maybe I will make 15 mins sometimes. But updating my twitter widget every hour is OK - as long as it is reliable & I can count on it. But the UPDATE LOCK problem I describe above, is a totally unacceptable condition.
P.S. I believe I always did have a lock problem.
Does anyone know the fix for this? I can't keep baby-sitting this plugin like this ;)
Silly question maybe, but is there a manual way to clear the update locks? Perhaps that will help isolate the issue if I can see where the issue is coming from?
The widget works great, when it works. But, there's gotta be a way to fix it so that it updates all the time; not just sometimes.
I am having the same problem, but am not even close to reaching our limit. This is on a dedicated server, so it's the only one running on this IP. We also have it set to HTTP rather than HTTPS and I have manually cleared the update lock. It's still displaying tweets from December as the most recent tweets, which is WAY behind.
Any thoughts on how to fix?
Agree with WolfSnap - great when it works - and it was for me till about 2 weeks ago - and I didn't change / do anything.
Yes, you can clear the locks manually, BUT the lock keeps coming back, so this isn't a solution. Also, when I cleared locks that past 2 weeks, it did NOT update, like it use to.
I am ready to rip it out - plugins like this cannot be "baby-sat". I (like many of you) have content to write / focus on.
I too tried several things & nothing worked. Anyone elaborate please on what "LOCKS" are? Something to do with our hosting server I believe, but HOW can we fix that also. The locks appear to happen more regularly now, whereas before, when mine worked reliably. May be that twitter changed their API, as I did NOT make any changes - was happy that it was working.
......... yuk ....... ;(
I have had enough - still not updating - don't have the time to baby-sit this widget. Quite possible that any API changes at twitter also causes such problems, so not totally the developers fault. Not convinced that Twitter supports the 3rd party application makers either - by giving advance warning of API changes.
Does anyone have a substitute widget we can use on our websites?
This week-end I am going to search, find & install another twitter widget. If the people behind Twitter Widget Pro can't support our problem in the weeks (actually months), then I/we are moving on.
Collectively we have spent way too much time ;(
If anyone finds something comparable, I/We would appreciate hearing about it.
BTW, did this test several times.
I am on shared IP with my hosting provider - BlueHost
I reach my 150 limit in about 10-12 mins.
This has been quite consistent over the last 3 weeks or so, when I have randomly done the test - just go into twitter widget pro settings and keep hitting browser refresh to watch the count go up.
Appears that when you hit your 150 limit, that is when the LOCK comes on - and never clears by itself.
Manually clear it. No one can be expected to do this every hour
It worked great for several months then stopped about 2 weeks ago. So somehthing changed - maybe twitter tweaked their API & never told any developers - probably too busy & focused to lend them any support either.
End result ? Us users are stuck with poor integrity plugins ;(
Well what about those of us who /aren't/ hitting our limit? The problem seems to lie elsewhere.
I finally moved on - found another one that looks MUCH better. Comes highly recommended from another org I spoke at last week;
Try it out & let me know. Less tweaking - It Just WORKS !

My sidebar is stopping short when the post content is longer than the sidebar content. To fix this I am trying to add a <div id="wrap"> around the content and sidebar and then applying a background image to float right and repeat-y so that it appears that the sidebar extends all the way down. For some reason this background (even a background color) won't show up. I'm not sure what is interfering with this. Any ideas?

Slowking (Neo Genesis 14)
Slowking (Japanese: ヤドキング Yadoking) is a Psychic-type Stage 1 Pokémon card. It is part of the Neo Genesis expansion.
Card text
Pokédex data
|Slowking - Royal Pokémon
|6'7" (2 m)
|175 lbs. (79.5 kg)
|Pokédex entry
|When its head was bitten, toxins entered Slowpoke's head and unlocked an extraordinary power.
- Slowking was one of the few cards ever to be banned from the Pokémon Trading Card Game because how they affected the overall environment of the game. In this case Slowking's Pokémon Power significantly slowed down game play while being potent enough to see heavy competitive play.
- This card was the last specific card to be banned from any official event until the Sandy Cloak Wormadam card from Secret Wonders and POP Series 7 was banned from the 2008 North American Professor Cup, after dominating the 2008 European Professor Cup due in part to being printed in POP Series 7 as an (all rarities are banned from use in the Professor Cup).
- This was the last specific card to be banned from organized play until Lysandre's Trump Card in June of 2015.
- The damage for Mind Blast is printed off-center.
Impact of Pokémon Power
Slowking's Pokémon Power was intentionally altered when it was brought to the US. In the Japanese version, Mind Games only worked when Slowking was the Active Pokémon. In its final US form, it could be used from the bench, allowing players to use multiple Slowking to further reduce the odds of a Trainer card being successfully played (possibly down to 1 in 16). As a result, Slowking became extremely popular, with games often coming down to who could lay down Slowking first. Due to its widely perceived negative influence on gameplay, the card was banned from the Modified format at the end of 2002.
This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Silver.

Suspect in PlayStation 4 killing pleads not guilty
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A San Francisco man has pleaded not guilty to fatally shooting another man who was trying to sell him a Sony PlayStation 4 gaming system.
Ronnie Collins entered his plea during his arraignment Monday in a San Francisco courtroom to murder and other charges including two counts of attempted robbery with firearm enhancement allegations.
Prosecutors say the 21-year-old Collins shot and killed 22-year-old Ikenna Uwakah of Daly City, inside the victim's car during the botched transaction near a park in San Francisco's Bayview District on Dec. 1.
Collins allegedly responded to an ad about the recently-released video game system Uwakah and his girlfriend had posted both on Instagram and Craigslist.

Ferdinand Ward was the greatest swindler of the Gilded Age. Through his unapologetic villainy, he bankrupted Ulysses S. Grant and ran roughshod over the entire world of finance. Now, his compelling, behind-the-scenes story is told—told by his great-grandson, award-winning historian Geoffrey C. Ward.
Ward was the Bernie Madoff of his day, a supposed genius at making big money fast on Wall Street who turned out to have been running a giant pyramid scheme—one that ultimately collapsed in one of the greatest financial scandals in American history. The son of a Protestant missionary and small-town pastor with secrets of his own to keep, Ward came to New York at twenty-one and in less than a decade, armed with charm, energy, and a total lack of conscience, made himself the business partner of the former president of the United States and was widely hailed as the "Young Napoleon of Finance." In truth, he turned out to be a complete fraud, his entire life marked by dishonesty, cowardice, and contempt for anything but his own interests.
Drawing from thousands of family documents never before examined, Geoffrey C. Ward traces his great-grandfather's rapid rise to riches and fame and his even more dizzying fall from grace. There are mistresses and mansions along the way; fast horses and crooked bankers and corrupt New York officials; courtroom confrontations and six years in Sing Sing; and Ferdinand's desperate scheme to kidnap his own son to get his hands on the estate his late wife had left the boy. Here is a great story about a classic American con artist, told with boundless charm and dry wit by one of our finest historians.

Excerpted from the Hardcover Edition
Chapter One
The Higher Calling
Shortly after dawn on March 20, 1837, at the end of a four-month voyage from Boston, the captain of the American merchant ship Saracen sighted the green Coromandel coast of South India and set his course northward along it, headed for the British port city of Madras.
The Saracen was carrying three distinctive products from New England. Two were in great demand: bales of the rugged cotton twill then called "jeans," and more than one hundred tons of ice, cut from Massachusetts ponds into big blue-green blocks, then carefully packed into the Saracen's hold, surrounded by layers of lumber, hay, sawdust, and tanbark to minimize melting over the course of the long voyage. For the British, suffering in the Indian heat, the regular arrival of American ice was a godsend. "The stoppage of the Bank of Bengal here could hardly exceed the excitement of a failure, during our hot weather, of the ice!" one Briton wrote. "And the arrival of our English mail is not more anxiously expected than that of an American Ice-ship, when supplies run low."
The third New England export aboard the Saracen-Puritanism-would find a less cordial welcome. The ship's sole passengers were six American missionaries and their wives as well as a physician and his wife dedicated to their care. They stood silently together on the quarter-deck, gazing at the distant shoreline. They had left friends and families and endured 118 days at sea in order to help bring their brand of Protestantism to the unconverted millions of the subcontinent, to create what one veteran missionary called "New England in India." Timothy Dwight, the president of Yale and a founder of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, under whose auspices they had embarked, had set their ambitious agenda: it was their charge, he wrote, to hasten the time "when the Romish cathedral, the mosque, and the pagoda, shall not have one stone left upon another, which shall not be thrown down."
For the little group on deck, prospects of hastening that time did not look immediately reassuring. Every landmark they saw that day underscored the enormity of the task they faced: a beachfront cluster of carved Hindu structures at Mahabalipuram had withstood the pounding surf for more than a thousand years; the gleaming white Cathedral of Saint Thomas, built by the Portuguese and said to mark the original tomb of the apostle, symbolized for the Americans not Christianity but "popery," more sinister even than the native "heathen" faith they had been sent to supplant; and when they at last came within sight of Fort St. George, the big coastal bastion from which Britons governed the vast Madras presidency, the carved gopurams of more Hindu temples and the scattered domes of Muslim mosques appeared above "Blacktown," the jumble of mud huts and whitewashed houses that had grown up in the shadow of its walls. The missionaries' worst fears had been confirmed: the city was clearly the home of "errorists of every name and grade."
Walls of foaming surf made it impossible for large vessels to get anywhere near the shore at Madras. So the captain of the Saracen lowered her sails two miles offshore and waited for orders from the harbormaster telling him where to drop anchor among the scores of merchant vessels and hundreds of smaller fishing boats already bobbing in the Madras Roads.
The Americans watched as two crudely fashioned catamarans-teak logs lashed together, each paddled by three kneeling men-struggled out toward them through the waves. Despite the still-bright late-afternoon sun, the missionaries were clad in black; their wives wore the long-sleeved dresses with full skirts and many petticoats thought suitable for the wives of clergymen back home. When the first catamaran reached the Saracen and its occupants clambered up the side to deliver anchoring instructions to the captain, the sight of them, dark skins shiny with sweat, naked but for loincloths and standing only a few feet away, drove several of the women and at least two of the men to their cabins to weep with shock and pray for strength.
"These are the Hindus, these the people among whom we came to dwell!" the Reverend Ferdinand De Wilton Ward remembered saying to his wife, Jane Shaw Ward, that evening as they settled into their berths to try to get at least a little sleep before going ashore the next morning. Ward had celebrated his twenty-fourth birthday at sea; his wife was seven month solder. Everything they had seen that day suggested that the gulf between New England and the ancient land to which they and their companions expected to devote the rest of their lives was wider than they'd imagined, the challenge of conversion greater than they'd dreamed. If the little band of missionaries was to have any impact on India at all, they would have to work together as one, Ward would write, bound up in "a united labor of love," with each member careful always to display consistent "patience and forbearance."
But neither he nor his wife was prepared to remain united with anyone else for long. Neither was patient or forbearing, either. In the end it was not the immovability of India but the Wards' own intransigence and stubborn self-regard that would first drive the couple home in disgrace and then create the claustrophobic, embittered world that helped warp the personality of their younger son.
Rev. Ferdinand De Wilton Ward, the swindler's father and namesake, had been brought up to believe that his family, the Wards of Rochester, New York, were better than other people: more upright, more principled, more godly, and-perhaps as a reward for all that conspicuous virtue-bound to be more successful. Their prosperity and prominence, they believed, were inextricably linked with what Rev. Ward would call "their ancestral, heroic, puritan piety of which they were never, for an hour, ashamed."
They had already prospered in Massachusetts and Connecticut for six generations by 1807, when Ferdinand's grandfather, Deacon Levi Ward, his Yale-educated father, Dr. Levi Ward Jr., their families, and several neighbors all left Haddam, Connecticut, together and joined the stream of New Englanders then headed for the "Genesee Woods," the dark unbroken forest that blanketed most of western New York. From the first, they considered themselves a cut above their fellow pioneers. Deacon Ward saw to it that his wife rode through the forest in a horse-drawn chaise with leather springs, the first such conveyance ever seen in the New York wilderness (or so his descendants later claimed). Once they reached and cleared the site that was first named "Wardville" and then became part of the village of Bergen, the deacon's eldest son, Dr. Levi Ward, built his family a frame house with cedar shingles rather than a log cabin, even though his new neighbors found it "somewhat aristocratic."
Ferdinand De Wilton Ward was born in that house on July9, 1812, the youngest of five boys and the second-to-youngest child in a family of thirteen children (eleven of whom would live to adulthood). His earliest memories included the bright, beaded moccasins worn by the Indian hunters who emerged from the woods from time to time with game to barter, and the distant sound of howling wolves, heard as he lay shivering in bed.
His father was an unusually successful settler. By the time Ferdinand was born, Dr. Ward was running a provisions store, serving his fifth consecutive term as town supervisor, overseeing mail delivery throughout the region, and acting as land agent for the State of Connecticut, charged with selling off some fifty thousand acres of cleared forest for farmland-and pocketing a handsome commission for every sale.
But he was not satisfied. In early 1818, when Ferdinand was five and his father was forty-six, his parents moved their large brood twenty miles or so to the east, to what was then called Rochester Ville, on the Upper Falls of the Genesee River. Only seven hundred people lived there then, but the tumbling ninety-six-foot cataract at the village's heart was ideally suited for powering mills and workshops, and there was good reason to believe the tiny village would soon outdo all the surrounding settlements: the New York State legislature had decreed that the 363-mile Erie Canal, connecting Albany on the Hudson to Buffalo on Lake Erie, was to cross the Genesee at Rochester. Work was already under way. Once completed, the canal would link the American heartland for the first time to distant continents-and transform the thickly forested Genesee Valley into fields of ripening wheat for sale to the cities of the East.
Rochester was about to become the "Flour City"-the nation's first real boomtown-and Dr. Ward and all his offspring would profit handsomely from its startling growth. Ferdinand grew up in a world in which his father seemed to be everywhere at once, encouraging every new enterprise, urging his neighbors to ever-greater effort, summoning up a city from a forest. He helped lobby to make Rochester the seat of the brand-new Monroe County, opened stores, bought up big tracts of land, cornered the insurance business, helped establish the Rochester City Bank, the first New York financial institution ever chartered outside New York City, as well as the Rochester Savings Bank-and then served as president and director of each. Hews a ruling elder of the First Presbyterian Church, helped establish the Female Charitable Society, the County Poor House, the Western House of Refuge, the Rochester Athenaeum, the Rochester Society for the Promotion of Temperance. He was a life member of the American Colonization and American Tract Societies, too, and president of the Monroe County Bible Society, the very first in the country, whose goal it was to place a Bible in the hands of every citizen willing to accept one.

Fascinating portrait of Ferd Ward, the scoundrel who bankrupted Pres Grant and defrauded thousands of people throughout his lifetime. Written by Ward's g-grandson who shakes out every skeleton from his family's closet, this book is an excellent addition to the history of the late 1800s.
Excellent. This is a compelling story of American greed and early Wall-Street-type hype.
Yeah. Im sure.

NB London bus - which must be lost!
There are now three zones in Wellington city - there used to be sections. Look for a map of the zones on the link I give below.
I find the site quite! easy to use and understand.
I had invested in ten trip tickets - and also used the daytripper ticket for $5 if I was going to be out and about a lot - but now the snapper card is in the process of being phased in so it is all brand new again. No ten trip tickets after the end of August 2008 - though they can be used up until December.
Above is the link for snapper cards.
You have to pay to buy them ($10 in the introductory phase and $15 thereafter) and there is a saving of 25%.
They don't work on the city section which costs $1 and is from the railway station to Courtenay Place.
You can top them up on line or at various places around the city with Snapper symbols in the window. And buy a coffee or pay for your drycleaning with them.
They work on GoWellington buses, not the green Newlands coaches, which are a separate entity.
Nor do they work on the trains - called Tranzmetro at the moment but that will change as the rail system in NZ has just been sold again.
Mode: AROUND
Type: Bus
I am now in a position to give you the good oil about the Airport Flyer.
This useful service seemed at first to have a lot of names. Which I found confusing.
The Airport Flyer, the Valley Flyer, the Stagecoach Flyer and the Flyer.
But I have found out the Valley Flyer is just a normal bus which goes out to the Hutt Valley.
The Airport Flyer is bright orange and the buses are new with plenty of space for luggage.
It seems to zip through town about every 20 minutes (but check the timetable on the link below. On the link below it is called the Flyer, number 91.)
It purportedly stops anywhere there is an orange attachment on the bus stop with Stagecoach Flyer on it.
I caught it today near the Beehive and went out to Queensgate mall. It is more expensive than ordinary buses ($6-50 for me). To give you an example of how much more expensive it is it cost me $4 for an ordinary bus back.
The bus driver did try to help the strangers in town by occasionally calling out which stop it was. "Anyone want the station?" But like don't depend on that, because Wellington bus drivers get paid just over minimum adult wage ($12-70 an hour I think) and are notoriously terse and hard pressed.
It is not a flat rate for the whole trip. You pay by how many zones you are travelling. One zone is $3-50 up to $8-50 to be driven out past Petone into the heart of the Hutt Valley.
Anyway it is a useful service and I like the way it travels so far from the airport. It could be a little more user friendly though. Big loud announcements (not necessarily by the driver) of which stop is next would be great.
You can buy a Starpass for $10 which provides unlimited travel on the Airport Flyer and on all buses in Wellington and the Hutt Valley. Except on Newlands buses which are bright green.
The snapper card is just being phased in and I am not sure how this will affect the daytripper tickets and Starpasses.

Probably not sorry really!
Oh dear. It started raining (so I suppose people who might have walked a few blocks decided to take the bus) and it was about 5-20 pm and I caught a bus from Courtenay Place to Thorndon -and oh dear this was not a good idea.
Mind you a stretch of Lambton Quay was being ripped up and this would not have helped.
But Wellington does do rush hour and gridlock and jam packed buses which leave people waiting at stops.
The Wellingtonians were patient and well mannered though. So I tried to be too.
I had noticed the very polite way buses flash SORRY - OUT OF SERVICE if that is indeed their condition. But had also noticed that I seemed to be continually getting the cranky drivers. Like - I got on the Flyer, which is the airport bus, by mistake and the driver curtly said - "Wrong ticket, get off." And several other drivers had been peremptory with me.
I told my cousin and he said Wellington is notorious for brusque bus drivers and in fact it is mentioned in Lonely Planet. So they are certainly living up to their reputation.
I took a mystery trip out to Vogeltown yesterday - just because I had never been to Vogeltown - and the driver was very curt with me when I asked him how many zones it was.
And I noticed it is not the customers who put him in a bad mood. It is notable how nearly every one calls out - "Thank you, driver," as they exit the bus. Maybe it is the difficult terrain of Wellington that makes them tetchy. The Vogeltown roads were certainly a thrill a minute.
Yesterday I went to catch my bus at 7-07 in Tinakori Road and had a surrealistic experience of thinking I had mistook the time and it was maybe 3am. No traffic at all. I patiently waited and finally a bus turned up at 7-37. I found out a truck and trailer had overturned in a main street down in town and all traffic, including buses, had stopped for over an hour.
So things can go wrong, as always, and if it is important that you are somewhere at a certain time, allow for things going wrong.
I would have caught a taxi - but there was no traffic. Eerie.

When photographer Stephen Jaquiery snapped this photograph,
the Taieri Times held on to it for a rainy day.
Several weeks passed.
When the Taieri Times rang to speak to Mr McGee, his
wife Gaye answered the phone.
Nick (Ngatikahu) McGee, she explained, had died on May 19. He
was 74.
Mr McGee walked his dogs come wind, rain or snow for 12
The long walks took them two and a-half hours through
Abbotsford to Blackhead Quarry, along Old Brighton Rd,
Fairfield then home - 13km.
All the way, Mr McGee's huntaway Rosie never left his side.
When Rosie developed a bad knee, another dog Bemo - belonging
to neighbour Sandra Beckingsale - began tagging along.
They became a trio.
Each morning, Bemo would trot a few doors down the street to
join Mr McGee and Rosie on their stroll.
''I had got to know Mr McGee very well over the past couple
of years and have been on his walk with him a few times
before he fell ill,'' Ms Beckingsale said.
''He was stopped by hundreds of people over the years. He was
well known for his daily walks. People even waited for him in
the mornings.''
Mr McGee lived with his wife in Green Island for 27 years.
''Every day when he got back from that walk he would tell
Gaye who he met,'' Ms Beckingsale said.
One dark morning, a road worker pulled over and gave him a
few hi-vis jackets to wear.
''Nick thought if it was good enough for him to wear, it was
good enough for his dog. They have always worn them since.
''Over the years, the children from Fairfield school, Fulton
Hogan staff and the community got to know Nick, Rosie and
The retired engine driver fell sick with cancer five years
ago, and eventually shortened his walk to about 6km.
Now the daily walks fall to Mrs McGee - sometimes with a
little help from Ms Beckingsale.
People still stop to ask them where has Mr McGee gone.
Even the bus driver pulled over. And Rosie sticks close by.
''Rosie misses Nick a lot.''

When Captain Peacock has to report that sales on a rainy day in a gloomy conjuncture have reached rock bottom -naught- Mr. Rumbold comes over to examine their selling technique and then demonstrates, playing a customer with Mrs. Slocombe, how much better it would be if Mr. Humphries greets customers; Peaock, who fears for his position, then plays an utterly impossible customer, causing a shouting match just when Mr. Grace stops by, who then announces they'll either suffer a 10% pay cut or be moved to the bargains cellar, where no commissions will be earned. After a ...

When the obsession drives her to alcoholism and it starts raining complaints from verbally abused customers, Mr. Rumbold and Mr. Grace investigate, and end up with psychological advice that the only cure is for the object of her desire to appear to be responsive- poor Mr. Humphries has to sit next to her when the whole floor ...

About Those High Tech Jobs Coming To Town...
J.C. Clay has been out of work since April. When he heard about the high-paying jobs - he emailed WOKR to ask if this was for real. While it's true some pay as much as $50,000 to $70,000 a year (that's an average salary) a few will pay more, but the majority will pay less. Integrated Nano Technologies will hire 105 people over the next three years.

On the way to the CL final, check how many games Gerrard missed. He is often not the central player although his role is often amplified. Alonso is a more influential and consistent performer. However not many people strike the ball as well as Gerrard that is why I would play him at the top of a midfield diamond. The Ljunberg role when Arsenal played in Europe last season- just behind the lone striker.Gerrard, just like many england big names are not great at holding and distributing. It's not about pace. leave that to the wingers

GME heralds the amazing G-Com marine VHF handheld radio
by Matthew Heap on 2 Mar 2011
The GX660 being fully waterproof with an IP67 rating is ideal for use on dinghies and runabouts without onboard electrical systems.
GME, Australia's leading marine electronics company, will shortly broaden their product portfolio with the introduction of the amazing G-Com GX660 marine VHF handheld radio.
The GX660 being fully waterproof with an IP67 rating is ideal for use on dinghies and runabouts without onboard electrical systems; it has the further bonus of being buoyant, so any onboard mishap where the radio takes a dip overboard will not result in a one way ticket to Davy Jones's Locker.
This is a true mariner's radio, boasting all the features only generally found in the top of the line portables. Attributes include a large backlit LCD screen, providing outstanding visibility of channel selection and other vital information, full 5 watt RF output, which incidentally is the maximum legally permitted under the Australian/New Zealand 4415.2 standard, this is user switchable to 1 watt for battery preservation and inshore communications.
The physical design is an appealing blend of aesthetics and practical ergonomics, a large colour coded key pad is easy to use, even with gloves on, providing straightforward access to a plain English menu and the operating functions.
Taking its lead from the mobile phone industry, the GX660 uses a 1400mAh Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack which will deliver more than sufficient power for a day's boating between charges
The GX660 will be available mid March and offers really tremendous value at an RRP of AUD$299.

Six teams earn spots in playoffs
Published: Wednesday, May 7, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 6, 2008 at 8:50 p.m.
Polk County's girls soccer team has had tough matches with Hendersonville this season, but the Lady Wolverines' main nemesis has been Avery County.
When the brackets were released for the first round of the 1-A playoffs on Wednesday, Polk coach Lennox Charles wasn't surprised with the draw. The Lady Wolverines host Avery at 7:30 p.m. tonight.
On Friday night, Polk had a battle with the Lady Vikings and got a thrilling 1-0 victory after a throw-in by Rachel Sain and a goal by Kaitlin Franks. The other time they faced Avery, the match ended in a tie.
"It's going to be tough playing them for a third time. It's going to be a great match. Those matches are great for spectators, but they're hard for coaches," he said.
In all, six area teams made the girls' prep soccer postseason, and five of those will take to the field in tonight's first round.
Polk (12-5-2), the top seed from the Western Highlands Conference, will host wild card Avery (15-3-2), and Hendersonville (15-5), which got in as a potent wild card, travels to Smoky Mountain Conference champion Highlands (4-7).
"That's the three top teams in the conference, and two are wild cards. If we had more 1-A teams in the conference, then all three of us would be seeded. We are all ranked in the state right now," Charles said.
Polk and HHS were in a dead heat for the WHC title all season, and last week the Lady Wolverines claimed sole possession of the crown after a hard-fought 2-1 win.
Carissa Jones has been the sparkplug for the Lady Bearcats, along with Amber Yancey and Crystal Manning. Lady Wolverine coach Lennox Charles has a balanced attack with six players with at least six goals each.
In the 2-A ranks, three area teams got in, and all three have home matches. North Henderson (9-8), the third seed from the Western Athletic Conference, will host the Mountain Valley's third seed, Surry Central (12-6-1) at 5:30 p.m., and Brevard (14-4-1), the WAC's second seed, hosts wild card Lincolnton (6-5-1) at 7 p.m.
Lauren Odom powers the Lady Knight offense with 26 goals, while sweeper Sydney Lyda usually boots away the opposing team from North's goal.
"We feel pretty good about our chances tomorrow night," North coach Dylan King said. "I talked to their coach, and we both feel like it's going to be a really competitive match. We're starting earlier because they have such a long trip."
West Henderson, the WAC champion with a 13-7 record, has a bye and will host the Patton-East Lincoln winner in the second round on either Friday or Saturday.
"It's prom season, so you never know if you need to reschedule. We will know something by Thursday," Lady Falcon coach Craig Long said.
Leading the way for West is Melise Welbourn with 18 goals and eight assists, and close behind Welbourn is Kelli Jo Havener with eight goals and eight assists. Freshman goalkeeper Stephanie Watkins has six shutouts.
The hands-down most talented team in the area and possibly the state will also be at home in tonight's first round of the 3-A playoffs -- unbeaten T.C. Roberson (23-0), the Mountain Athletic Conference's top seed.
The Lady Rams, who host Northern Piedmont No. 3 seed Northwest Cabarrus (17-3-1), are loaded from top to bottom and have two girls with 20 or more goals -- Katherine Ellis with 31 and Meghan Gilmore with 28. Nicole Gucchi leads the team in assists with 21.

I've struggled for the last few years with knee pain most likely resulting from IT Band Syndrome. At least that's the best guess—correctly diagnosing these kinds of things is tricky in the extreme. But at the very least I'm sure my IT bands, like most of my muscles—as I've discovered doing yoga—are much too tight.
To illustrate just how tight they are, when I went to physical therapy I had a substitute therapist one morning and she just looked at my legs and said, "Well, those are some tight IT bands" without even having to touch them.
They are also frustrating muscles to try to stretch since they are fantastically strong, like all the load bearing muscles in your body.
Using a foam roller is a part of the physical therapy and as a bonus is in general considered a good thing for muscles and fascia. So there's been foam rolling a-plenty for me. Problem was it didn't really do much for my IT bands. I could feel the knots, but it wasn't doing anything to alleviate them. So I stepped up to The Grid and it was better, definitely digging deeper, but still wasn't getting deep enough.
Then I found the Rumble Roller, a roller with knobs that looks like it's straight out of some kind of BDSM dungeon. This thing gets in there—it's deeply uncomfortable and leaves your muscles feeling like you got a thumb massage on a day when your therapist had some aggression to work out.
If you've been using a regular black foam roller but feel like it's not getting deep enough, definitely try a Rumble Roller. But do not buy one unless you actually have found regular black foam rollers to not do the job. It will hurt you.

We've been trying to figure out how to change the font size in the main navigation bar. I came across this plugin and thought it was going to be my godsend. I can't seem to figure out how to use it to change anything! What window/page do I need to be on in order to select the text/font to change. If I go to our page through wordpress and then click the font settings plugin, the editing windows open but they don't let me do anything until I "pick and element". When I highlight/select text, nothing happens and if I try to click on a header or a word in the main nav bar, it's just following the link and opening the page. HELP PLEASE!

For anyone whose ever had their heart smashed
