Taylor Swift is very popular and it is nice to see the Karaoke version of her songs. The girls sing for hours to this CD
This is just like any kind of CD you buy in the store. Only a couple of good songs and the rest are ok, but you probably will not listen to them. There are only 3 songs my kid will sing along with.
Nice CD overall.
I bought this for my daughter's birthday. Can't beat $7.00. I haven't checked out the DVD but the CD with graphics works great with my karaoke DVD player! My daughter will be so excited when she opens her gift. I love how you can order it online and pick it up at your local walmart!
I got this cd for my daughter and she absolutely LOVES it! She and her friends have a great time pretending to be Taylor Swift and singing their favorite songs!
Hard to keep up with. Ok for Grandkids.

AbstractTRS Technologies proposes micromachined single crystal piezoelectric actuator arrays to enable ultra-large stroke, high precision shape control for large aperture, lightweight and cryogenic adaptive optics structures for future NASA Science and communications applications. The proposed concept will advance the state-of-art actuators for deformable mirrors considering the excellent cryogenic properties (with d33 and d31 at 30K similar or higher than that of PZT at room temperature) of single crystal piezoelectrics, large stroke and high actuator density. In this Phase I project, TRS will investigate the feasibility of using micromachined single crystal piezo actuator array for deformable mirrors. Single crystal piezoelectric microactuator arrays will be fabricated and characterized at temperature from 20 K to 300 K. Driving electronics for piezo actuator array, and DM modeling incorporating piezo microactuators will be investigated in Phase I as well. In Phase II, optimized single crystal piezoelectric actuators will be designed, fabricated, characterized and integrated into a deformable mirror structure for full evaluations.

By now the world knows very well how Lil Wayne feels about the Miami Heat, it's stars Lebron James and Dwyane Wade and Adrienne Bosh.
Yes, we're referring to the diminutive rapper's well documented,take no prisoners rant last (NBA All-Star) weekend in Houston when he said on stage, "F**k the Heat, f**k Lebron, f**k shewayde, and I f**ked Chris Bosh's wife."
Well, Wednesday night Wayne took back some of his comments when placed a call to Miami's 99 Jamz radio station to apologize for what he said about Lebron James.
"That's my homie, and it just slipped out. I ain't mean to say that."
And no, he didn't take back his other comments, including the one about having sex with Chris Bosh's wife, Adrienne.
Also, the lil feller spelled out exactly what went down between him and Dwyane Wade during the recent Heat vs. Lakers game. He said that in the midst of their exchange, the Heat guard told him, "We don't F with you."
He also said that he didn't get kicked out of the game, but that he walked out on his own after receiving a tip saying that security was going to ask him to leave if he stood up one more time.

We tried this one out for a week and finally returned it after a long debate. I needed one for my kitchen and the size was perfect and the design was sleek. I had it mounted on an upper cabinet and if you sat right in front, the picture quality was very good, but it got washed out and a bit fuzzy toward the side where I sit. The sound was good for most programming, but some softer movies had to have the volume up to 90/100 to really hear it well. We tried plugging a headphone jack from small speakers and the sound got worse (we had not had that problem with our previous LCD 19" tv, whose tv sound was terrible)
Overall the quality is good, it just didn't meet my needs. Also, on dark scenes I had trouble seeing the picture at all (again viewing location perhaps) and there is a slight pause between changing channels. Not too annoying, but have had faster response.

Hi everyone,
I have four languages on my blog, this works without any problem. I just created a category per language. These categories are published on theire own page. So i also have four pages. You can simply create a new template for the page.php so every page with it's own language has it's own header in that language.
However, when the visitors clicks on a headline it will always use the same single.php thus that page can only be one language..
Is it possible to have multiple templates per single.php just like page.php has?

On the 2nd of February 1659, Jan van Riebeeck, the first Commander of the Cape, noted in his diary: "Fine warm weather…Today, praise be to God, wine was made for the first time from Cape grapes."
On the 2nd of February 2009, three hundred and fifty vintages later, four men share a passion for wine and a vision for the future: a world-class wine from South Africa, combining the best terroirs of the Cape with Old World winemaking expertise. On the ground was Giorgio Dalla Cia, whose knowledge of South African vineyards is legendary. Thrilled by the idea, Denis Dubourdieu joins the group: master winemaker to numerous icon wines in Bordeaux, Hermitage and elsewhere.
The first vintage G. 2010 was released to rave reviews.
The 2011 and 2012 continue to set a new Standard - on par with and above the greatest wines of the world.
The First Growth of the Cape is conquering the globe.
All our work is targeted to create the best possible wine of the country – the only one that is entitled to carry the "G." as the First Growth of the Cape. A multi-terroir blend, we pay honor to the personality of every vintage that makes it unique within the G. genealogy. Our second wine echoes the Grand Vin.
Legendary winemaker Denis Dubourdieu teams up with young South African talent Mia Fischer to create the 'First Growth of the Cape'. Uncompromised quality is the leitmotiv for this wine that is determined to set new standards
– with a strict limitation of 3745 bottles in its third vintage.
Further refinement of the vision. Balanced perfectly between the New and the Old World, with an intensity of fruit that speaks to Napa Valley, and a structure that leans towards the Right Bank. A limited production of 1943 bottles.Download fact sheet here
Delicate, delicious, inimitable. A powerful statement for the terroir of South Africa, refined and cultured by the touch of an Old World Master. Purity, harmony, complexity and elegance. Seductive now, with the potential for extended ageing. A limited production of 3410 bottles.Download fact sheet here
THE ECHO OF G. reflects on the new wine crafted by legendary winemakers Denis Dubourdieu and Giorgio Dalla Cia together with young South African talent Mia Fischer. Second wine to the 'First Growth of the Cape', this oeuvre enjoys the same compromised quality as G. – and is ultimately born during blending.Download fact sheet here
A visionary masterpiece from Italian-born South African winemaker Giorgio Dalla Cia in collaboration with European experts, this wine was initially made for friends and family only. Not available for sale.Download fact sheet here
One hundred years of winemaking expertise at the highest level. Energy, enthusiasm and vision.
This is Decanter's Man of the Year 2016, a Godfather of Icon wines, master winemaker behind the wines of Château Cheval Blanc and Château d'Yquem in Bordeaux, and La Chapelle in Hermitage, and professor of oenology at the University of Bordeaux. Denis Dubourdieu has crafted some of the greatest wines of his generation. At 4G, he recognizes that rarest of visions, the terroir to make a wine that will stand as an equal to the greatest wines from around the world. It is a challenge that he embraces.
Valérie Lavigne has worked as an associate with Denis Dubourdieu for more than twenty years. A renowned expert in the science of wine aromas, she is also recognized world-wide for her research on the ageing process of wines. Her work with 4G continually pushes us forward, upward.
A living legend in South Africa, creator of such wines as Rubicon at Meerlust Estate, Giorgio Dalla Cia has been the Spiritus Rector of 4G. A visionary pioneer in his native land, he combines an unparalleled knowledge of the vineyards and terroirs of the Cape with a drive that permits no obstacles.
Feet on the ground, hands in the wine. Mia Fischer has winemaking experience in four countries on three continents. She is the craftsman that realizes the vision of her guiding lights, Denis and Giorgio. Tireless, with a painstaking attention to details, Mia carefully carries the wines from the crush pad to the bottle.
Trained at the famous Berlin Weissensee school of design, Sebastian's work has appeared in exhibitions in Berlin, Zurich, Riga and Hannover. Creative ideas flow effortlessly from his mind. His uncanny eye for the natural world, combined with an endlessly creative application of flawless technique, make his work a perfect match for 4G.
Feedback from leading international wine experts confirms that G. receives recognition for being the First Growth of the Cape.
"100 Points put to the Test"
"A dream of a wine … providing reliable future potential."
"Evidently there is a new cult wine emerging on the international wine market."
Peter Moser / Ulrich Sautter
Austrian-German Wine Magazine falstaff
"World class at a world class price"
"This new and still completely unknown blend… absolutely has potential to become an icon and I will reward it a well-deserved high rating."
"Extremely concentrated palate with a clear Cabernet message sent to Harlan."
René Gabriel
Switzerland's foremost wine authority
"It is like swallowing silk. This big wine should be able to age beautifully for the next 25 years… This deserves my best ever mark for a South African wine"
Germain Lehodey
Mosaic at The Orient, Pretoria
"...This is a wonderful wine and the proprietors are doing all of the right things to get it ist place among the great growths."
John Mariani's Virtual Gourmet Newsletter
"The wine sets a benchmark for quality, price and rarity in South Africa"
Jeff Leve
Los Angeles
"A deft combination of power and freshness, the wine ties for highest-scoring red in this report."

I am looking at using WordPress to create archive for email mailing list. (I want new items on top, unlike what my emailing list creates).
I've read the codex on how to post via email.
My question is whether anyone has set up to display only the title line (not the body) of the post, or do something similar?
I am using "mailman" emailing list archiving, but it puts the new items on bottom instead of top, and it's a large archive.

My son, Julien can recognise some wordsd and has started sounding out small words. But my friends child could read at four and my mother told me that I could read at 4. Is this normal? How old were youre little ones when they started reading or have they?
Is it normal for my child not to be able to read at 4yo?
My son is the best gift I have ever got in my life!
my older son had some trouble reading. He was put into a reading program in k and 1st grade but was completly caught up by the end of 1st grade. He is in 3rd grade now and loves to read.
My 5 year old. he is no were near. Heck he is still struggling with learning what the ABC's are. (he is develpmentally delayed) I would say in general though most 4 year olds cant read at least around here.
DS(12),DS(8, ASD, ADHD ,Anxiety), DS(3 ( Severe Allergies to Dairy, Egg, Peanut, Tree Nuts
Most 4 year olds cannot read. DD is the only one in her preschool class that can (24 kids) she goes to Kindergarten for Language Arts. And even in the Kindergarten class, probably 25% are still working on their letters and sounds. Another 50% know their letters and sounds and are working on putting them together, but aren't quite reading. So maybe 25% of the K kids are actually reading... as in stories with sentences, plot, characters, etc.
Sarah DSD (19), ODD (6), and YDD 2/15/14
Co-GO of Class of 2026.
However I don't think your son is behind or anything....sounds normal
K-Child of God
mom to J & S
Apostolic Pentecostal ACTS 2:38
I think 4 is probably within the normal range (as opposed to super advanced), but I think many really smart (advanced) kids don't read until 5 or 6 or even later. DD is almost 5 and is in pre-k she can read sight words and knows how to sound out a word but putting sounds together to read hasn't quite clicked with her. By all accounts (from her teachers) she is very bright, it just hasn't clicked how to read.
I think it is totally normal. They really do develop all at their own pace and I truly don't think it is an indication of being intelligent. My mom says that I read at 4, but my brother had tons of trouble learning to read and really didn't master it until 8ish and we both went to the same college and on to graduate school. So, I guess what I am saying is don't sweat it!!
my ODS turned 5 in april and can't read or recongnize any word some letter but no numbers he knows all his shapes and colors and can count to 12
Mommy to
Trenton Michael 4/6/07 6ibs 2oz 19 1/4in 2 1/2wks early
Tyler Daniel 2/8/12 6ibs 12oz 19in 4wks early
Not normal.
If it was normal, then more kids would be reading that young. And like someone else said, there's a big difference between reading books and actually understanding what's been read. My ODD's friend started reading at 3.5. In 1st grade could read on a 6th grade level. But when asked about what she just read, couldn't answer. So just because your friend's 4yo is reading, it doesn't mean she comprehends.
Also - lots of kids can "read" their favorite books at this age. Both my girls could. And my kindergartener isn't really reading yet at all. But if you saw her with Green Eggs and Ham, you'd swear she was - she even points along to each word. However, if you show her some of the same words in another book - she doesn't always know what they are.
And yes - kids can be taught to read this early. Lots of kids aren't ready though. I started doing letter sounds, and showing my ODD words when she was younger, and she had no interest in learning them. She wrote her name on her own at 3. She's in 2nd grade now, just starting chapter books, and she's pretty much right in the middle of her class. Some kids were reading those last year, some kids aren't there yet. I've also been told that kids sort of level out with reading and the gaps that exist when kids are younger, more or less even out by grade 3. That the early readers and the slow readers sort of meet at this age/grade.
Mom to 2 Leo girls (8 & 6) - I am blessed!
My nephew's 4 and has expressed frustration to his mom (my sister) that he can't read. My sister's trying to work with him on it. If he really wants to, he'll probably start doing it this year in preschool. A boy at my daughter's old daycare just turned 5 this summer. He also can't read, but is working on it -he's homeschooling. My daughter's 3 years old and knows a few words by sight like 'dog,' 'cat,' has memorized some favorite books and has started some cognitive skills where she can start to figure out what I'm going to say when I'm reading a passage in an easy picture book, but she can't read phonetically yet. I've been teaching her some letter sounds and her preschool (that she just started 2 weeks ago) will be teaching her letter sounds too.
I think reading skills & habits start to form before 5 years old, but there are several years in school where students learn how to read and how to understand what they're reading.
FYI - studies show that early readers lose their advantage by the end of elementary. ie - even if your child was an early reader, the rest of the kids catch up and are on the "same page", so to speak, by the end of elementary. So even if four is normal (which I don't think so) and your child isn't reading yet, don't worry because it does not have an impact on their overall success

Salvaging 800 seats from Christchurch's demolished Queen
Elizabeth II Stadium could save Lakes Leisure in Queenstown
over $70,000.
The outdoor stadium seats at the Queenstown Events Centre,
managed by Lakes Leisure, were installed during the centre's
construction in 1997 and have now come to the end of their
It has been proposed the Queenstown Lakes District Council
consent to moving funding forward so the seats can be bought.
Lakes Leisure had allocated $132,000 in its 2013-14 long-term
plan to replace the outdoor stadium seats and now ''an
opportunity has arisen with the demolition of the QEII
stadium in Christchurch to acquire 800 pre-used seats'', a
report to be discussed at the full council meeting tomorrow
The number includes 50 spare seats.
The seats were said to be in ''excellent condition'' and
could be bought for $62,000 in the current year, the report
''In order to finalise the transaction, council is required
to approve a budget transfer as follows: increasing the
capital grant to Lakes Leisure in 2012-13 by $62,000 and
reducing 2013-14 by 132,666. The overall effect is a budget
saving of $70,666.''
Lakes Leisure events and venues manager Jason Marrable said,
if purchase was approved tomorrow, the seats could arrive in
the second week of January and remedial work to install them
would begin immediately.
It is intended to have the new seats installed before the
England vs New Zealand four-day warm-up cricket match,
scheduled for February 27 to March 2. The old seats, which
consisted of plastic and steel, would be recycled.
The new seats would be a huge improvement in terms of comfort
because they featured a back rest, unlike the current seats,
Mr Marrable said.
Their expected lifespan was between seven and 10 years.
