really REALLY bad chicken – wow all i can say is there is a boston restaurant review show with a couple of brothers who rave about how great this place is, i really belive the the only places that get good reviews from them are the places thay pay them(LOL). THE CHICKEN WAS DREADFULL!!! underseasoned and way way over cooked! and just grade d scrawny little unrecognisable chicken parts(lol) the breast was smaller than a normal chicken thigh, the thigh was some odd shaped flat thing.my wife made the mistake of getting extra crispy! she said thats not extra crispy, thats cement!! it was really gross, too bad because the waffles are pretty good.
Fried Chicken - Ehhhh, It's ok. – I recently went to the Hen House looking for good fried chicken. Sadly, I was pretty disappointed. I ordered a 10 piece of fried chicken (no sides), The chicken had a nice crunch. Very crispy (probably double dipped). The chicken itself was cooked well. Very juicy. That being said, don't expect any spice flavor. It is a very bland fried chicken. This is not a "stand alone" fried chicken. This chicken is about sauces (buffalo, honey, etc.). I tried a few of their sauces, but nothing really wowed me. I see where the Hen House is trying to go with there food...and it looks exciting. However, at this time, the fried chicken needs to go back to the drawing board for some re-work.
Best Wings in Boston – I've gone here twice and still haven't had their signature dish: waffles and wings. But I've had both their boneless and their regular buffalo wings -- they're awesome. The boneless tenders are HUGE. My wife and I ordered 12, thinking we could eat 5 or 6 each. I think we had 3 or 4 before being full. Today we ordered 24 regular wings and 6 boneless for a party of 5 -- and still have plenty left. The bone-in wings are giant too. Really plump, juicy and the sauce is perfect. We like it with medium heat, so we order the Mild. It has the perfect spice mixed with tanginess.
Side note: Their menu is pretty extensive and includes lots of southern specialties. We've ordered a sandwich here too, and it wasn't great. Stick with their wings. Also, make sure to ask for celery and blue cheese at pick-up since it can be forgotten. And although the location isn't ideal (right near Liquorland and South Bay Plaza), the inside is pretty cool and trendy -- considering it's a wing place on Mass Ave.

Comments On Jan 02, 2014:I have worn a fanny pack tool belt for many years. As an enduro racer I just carried minimal basic tools not too heavy. Now as a trail and dual sport rider I carry a lot more. I had the MSR Baja pack with side bag and it got to weighing well over 20lbs. I had to keep it really tight squeezing my guts to avoid the fanny pack from sliding down,
I like the Ogio vest as my most frequently used tools or whatever are right there in front, no need to remove the vest. I had to remove the fanny pack to do anything including taking a leak, haha.
With pockets front and rear I am able to balance the weight unlike a regular back pakc and give the pack a neutral feel, it does not move around. 70oz water bladder is good.
One thing I realized on the first cool ride was my jacket was too tight to wear over the pack. Moving jacket under the vest makes things a bit too warm. So still figuring out the best set up for cold weather. I dinged off one star as there should be tie down rings on the back to secure a jacket or other clothing. No pocket is big enough to hold full size jacket. Overall I really like this vest

Comments On Oct 27, 2013:The vest is a solid idea and it works pretty well. I wish the vest was slightly less bulky and came with a 100 oz. bladder.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jan 02, 2013:On the last LAB2V, I rode 500 miles wearing this vest packed with tools and emergency supplies. Despite being completely overloaded, it was still very comfortable and I barely noticed it. The bladder is a bit on the small side and the bite valve isn't the best out there, but that's easily replaced. Also the pockets aren't reinforced so I suggest picking up some Husky 3-pack cordura pouches from Home Depot to put tools in before loading them into the vest.
Despite those negatives, this is 100x better than any of the several quality backpacks I've owned.
Additional Comments On Sep 27, 2013:Edit: After 9 months of using this vest I can honestly say that its the single best gear item I've ever purchased. I recently bought a 100oz Camelback reservoir and it fits the vest without modification. Other than that modification and keeping my tools in the previously mentioned pouches, I've made no other changes. The vest is in just as good of shape as the day I bought it, albeit a bit dirtier. I just leave it packed with tools and emergency supplies so when I go riding its just a matter of putting the bladder in, checking the batteries on my Spot, and tossing it in the truck. Fits great over my Leatt chest protector which also increases the ventilation and really helps you to forget you're wearing the vest.

Comments On Sep 07, 2013:I have used this vest for dual sport and adventure riding. Great to carry tools, tubes and water. Adventure riding: is great for the quick access items like rain gear, visor rags and extra gloves.

Comments On Mar 30, 2013:Saw some buddies wearing this vest in Moab and I decided to pick one up. Hands down a far superior option to a camelback and fanny pack for food, tools and hydration. The only downside is that the vest has so many pockets I have to watch myself from making it to heavy.

Comments On Feb 25, 2013:This thing blows all other pack set ups away.hands down the best way to carry anything you need.evenly distributes weight, you don't even feel it's there.

Comments On Jul 06, 2012:The idea of this product I give it a 5, the follow through, gets the 1. On my flight vest both the large front pocket zippers, don't hold the zipper closed. I now can't use these pockets because they un-zipp on me. The teeth of the zipper seem to be always coming unzipped after the zipper has closed them. Not even a year old yet.

Comments On Jun 05, 2012:Bought this a few weeks ago to use while racing the Baja 500. I've tried 5 different backpack style hydration packs but they all felt uncomfortable and would cause my chest protector to dig in. This vest solved all my problems and was extremely comfortable. This is a definite must if you carry any tools or anything besides just water.

Comments On May 07, 2012:This is the best rider accessory i have ever bought. It has more pockets than you know what to do with and will fit heaps of stuff. It fits over my body armour and spreads the load evenly over your body so you almost don't know you're wearing it. It also allows you to access plenty of pockets without taking it off. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Comments On Dec 24, 2011:The flight vest is pricey, but fortunately seems to be very well made. Has tons of storage room. water bladder is easier to remove than most hydration packs. The vest distributes weight nicely. If your current hydration pack doesnt interfere with your chest proctector it may not be worth the money. The flight vest worked great for me over or underneath a chest protector, slightly bulky like this but very comfortable, and doesnt hinder your movements.

Comments On Sep 27, 2011:Perfect weight distribution, no more banging at the back of my helmet from a back pack on drop offs. Problem is you can carry too much, pack what you need and enjoy. 10/10 product.

But even before the move, this lineage was setting size records. One ancient cousin to modern whales and hippos, called Andrewsarchus mongoliensis, ranks as the largest mammal known to have stalked the land as a predator. A skull from this creature, the only fossil found so far from this beast, greets visitors on their way into a new exhibit on whales here at the American Museum of Natural History.
"It's odd to have a big predator in this hoofed plant-eating mammal group," said John Flynn, co-curator of the exhibit, referring to the group to which whales and the now-extinct Andrewsarchus belonged. "But if you think about it, some of the other relatives like pigs and peccaries are pretty ferocious and will eat just about anything."
In an artist's rendering, the 45-million-year-old Andrewsarchus has a profile not unlike a giant feral pig with a more streamlined snout. This 6-foot-tall creature lived solely on land, but its relatives began taking to the water and eventually left land completely. [Whale Gallery: Giants of the Deep]The "first whale," a creature whose lifestyle (living on land but eating fish from the nearby sea) represented the early stage of this transition into the water, was a wolf-size fish eater that lived about 50 million years ago on the edges of the ancient Tethys Sea, according to the exhibit.

i HAVE HAD A LOT OF FOOT PROBLEMS IN THE PAST AND EVEN HAVE THE DREADED HAMMER TOE, IF YOU HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED THAT THEN YOU WILL KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. THE CROCS ARE AWESOME! I ALSO HAVE A VERY WIDE FOOT AND A HIGH ARCH AND WHILE A LITTLE SNUG THEY ARE VERY COMFORTABLE AND I WEAR THEM ALL THE TIME. One thing I found out though with my first pair of crocs you do n0ot want to leave them exposed to heat for extended periods of time like in the back of a truck in Phoenix in the summer for example. It will cause them to shrink.
Best design yet
I don't normally order shoes online because I like to try them on and walk around a bit before purchasing. I already own some Crocs (that are becoming worn out) and decided to buy the Duet Sport Clog - so glad I did. Of all the Crocs I've worn, this pair is the most comfortable. I bought the ladies size 12 (men's 10) and have found that the inside is wide enough for my foot but maybe just a tad snug in length. Crocs are the only shoes I wear and I can wear this new Duet Sport Clog all day, anywhere. Love 'em.

Perfect Footwear
This is my first pair of authentic Crocs. I held off buying a pair forever because, like a lot of other folks, I thought they should be cheaper. Then I found a knockoff pair for $5 at a discount store (not real Crocs). They were fine, but a mere shadow of what I knew Crocs could offer. Finally, I purchased a pair of Duets at a Holiday/Clearance sale on the Crocs site, with free shipping. Received them today. They are everything I expected, which was a lot. I only wish I had purchased them a long, long time ago. I have a feeling I will be purchasing many more in the future, for all kinds of activities. These are really the perfect casual footwear. I no longer question the value, but rather my delay.

When Bob Dammon first assumed his role as dean of the Tepper School of Business, a reporter asked him a curious question: "Will your program be rigorous or relevant?"
"It's not one or the other," explained Dammon, who vowed to prove that a Tepper School education provides an enduring framework that is applicable to business problems three to four decades beyond graduation. With only two years to educate an MBA for the rest of a career, the school's rigor and, in particular, its emphasis on utilizing solid economic analysis to make better decisions are vital to the education's longevity, he said.
"It is truly timeless, and I think it is what gives our students the advantage," he said.
In a series of speeches to alumni around the world, Dammon introduced himself and presented a State of the Union-style summary of his upcoming agenda as dean, a role he won in the spring of 2011 as a successor to Kenneth Dunn. But while the job title is new, Dammon actually is a 27-year veteran of the Tepper School's faculty, where he has won the George Leland Bach Teaching Award for excellence in the classroom a record three times.
"Many of you I had in class, and it was an honor for me to be one of your teachers," Dammon told an audience at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. "It's wonderful for me to see how successful my past students are."
As a young finance professor out of the University of Wisconsin, Dammon noted that he had 13 job offers when he arrived at the school in 1984. The reason he chose Carnegie Mellon is the same reason he's still here: "It had more intellectual excitement and energy of any place I had ever been," he said. "I came here to work with people like Rick Green, with Chester Spatt, with Ken Dunn. These were people who were working on the forefront of their disciplines."
His plan as dean is to leverage the school's strengths by focusing on five strategic priorities:: emphasizing the intellectual value of rigor and relevance in teaching and research; leveraging cross campus collaboration; diversification of the schools revenue sources; expand global awareness of the school's brand; and provide and exceptional experience and opportunities for involvement of all key Tepper School stakeholders.
In terms of intellectual capital, Dammon said he wants to hire and retain the best faculty, while simultaneously attracting the best and brightest students available.
"We want to give our students an experience that they can't get elsewhere," he said, specifically citing the school's strengths in interdisciplinary collaboration with Carnegie Mellon's computer, fine arts, and engineering departments. He cited the master of science in computational finance – a mashup of business, math, statistics and public policy that is consistently ranked among the best in the world -- as an example.
"We take the best from all of these units," Dammon said. "Collaboration happens easier at Carnegie Mellon than it happens anywhere, and I want to take advantage of that."
Another goal is to achieve a top 10 ranking, for which he cites two obstacles: finances and facilities.
"It's no secret that in comparison to our competitors, we are actually doing more with less," he said. For example, at just above $100 million, the Tepper School's endowment is one of the smallest in the top 20 business schools. By comparison, Harvard Business School enjoys a $2 billion endowment.
Dammon aims to double the Tepper School's endowment as a means for paying for the best faculty and to assist with scholarships in recruiting elite students. The funds also help pay for the operating budget.
To that end, Dammon cited the need for new facilities – specifically building space – as a priority. He believes it will help boost the school's yield rate, or the percentage of admitted students who ultimately attend the school. When the University of Michigan completed its new building, its yield rate jumped from 40 to 70 percent, he said.
After completing a feasibility study, the school has identified a location for a new building: the Morewood parking lot on Forbes Avenue, directly across from the Heinz School. The proposed building, which would be the centerpiece of Carnegie Mellon's master plan, requires approval from the city of Pittsburgh and funding, which Dammon estimated would range between $130 and $150 million.
In the latter endeavor, throughout his travels, he asked for alumni support.
"Just being here demonstrates to me your commitment to the school and your willingness to be involved with your alma mater," he said. "Our faculty, our programs and our academic reputation are world renowned. We got the hard part accomplished. It's just a matter of finding the facilities and the resources that match."
John Sengenberger, executive director of alumni relations, echoed Dammon's sentiments in seeking alumni support for meeting the goals ahead.
"As we like to say to our students: You're students for two years, or four years if you're an undergrad, but you're alumni for a lifetime," Sengenberger said. "You're the true stakeholders, and your involvement is key in our success."
Lee Diamond (MBA '05) said he came away from Dammon's San Francisco reception even more optimistic about the future of Tepper. "As a former student, I felt the same enthusiasm and commitment he brought to the classroom transfer to his new position as dean, and throughout his talk it was evident that his passion for the school runs deep," Diamond said. "I appreciated his honesty in bringing awareness to the challenges we face and pleased to hear not only that he had a clear vision and plan to bring the quality of all aspects of the Tepper School to a higher level, but also how we as alumni can actively participate in shaping the school and supporting his efforts."

How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
Cheerful chap but not always very well organised. Did not anticipate the need for the group to prepare an overnight bag for Lake Ganvie. On the other hand he did well to help us experience local food, drink and customs.
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
Be prepared for some long bus journeys, poor food and poor hotels. Do not expect to see any wildlife.
Do You Have Anything Else To Add
Leaving Togo was a problem being stopped at the airport because I was carrying binoculars. Apparently I needed papers and approval on entry which I did not have and did not know was required. After a bit of intrusive questioning I was let out!

What Was The Highlight Or Most Memorable Moment Of Your Tour
An amazing trip to get an insight into this secluded part of West Africa. I have learnt so much about the area, it is unbelieveable, the voodoo, village life, slavery, ancient African culutre and history dating back to the 17th century, current African issues. etc. Just mind blowing and an eye-opener.

Noah Katcha
How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
The knowledge of Noah was just astonishing. The best guide I have ever had with great personal and social skills as well as caring, attentive, knowlodgable with a great sense of humour.
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
Do not spend the £260 on the Togo visa via visaswift, as you are only in Togo for 3 days and you can buy a 7 day visa on arrival for 30 euros!! Only one pair of shoes are enough, the walks are very short and very easy. And do not forget your Malorone, it's a high risk area and we got eaten alive by the mosquitoes regardless of DEET.
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
All the mask dances, especially the last one (Zangdeto). Also the many small, unscheduled encounters with people doing their everyday activities such as panning for gold dust, making salt, distilling liquor, a church service, a wedding etc.
How was your Explore Tour Leader?
Hardworking, and a very upbeat and enthusiastic personality. Was good about stopping wherever something interesting was going on.
What tips would you give to someone else booking this tour?
Take malaria pills. Be prepared for extreme heat and dust. Do not bother with a sleeping bag - it is much too hot. Be mentally prepared for some shocking and distressing sights, such as all the dead birds and animals in the Fetiche Market.
Do you have anything else to add?
The Royal Air Maroc flight was a horrible schedule.

Royal Visits 2002
Prince Charles opens the Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society
The health and social benefits of local food production and the impact of complex business relationships on sustainable development topped the agenda when His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales led a discussion at Cardiff University.
The Prince opened the University's new Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society. During an hour long discussion he heard from University experts from the disciplines of business, law, engineering and city and regional planning, as well as from University collaborators from business, producers and government and other organisations.
The Vice-Chancellor, Dr David Grant, leads Prince Charles into the Glamorgan Building.
Measures to promote local food production and increased access to nutritious, locally-produced food was an area of particular interest. Participants included representatives from two inter- disciplinary research centres - the Regeneration Institute and the new Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society (BRASS). Funded by a £ 3.1 million award from the ESRC, BRASS is the UK's largest research centre dedicated to issues of business sustainability and social responsibility and the only ESRC centre in Wales.
Dr Grant opens the discussion by outlining some of the related issues he had experienced in the world of industry.
Director of the BRASS Centre, Professor Ken Peattie outlined his team's work, which addresses some of the most high profile issues on the business agenda. These include an investigation into the handling of the foot and mouth crisis; an enquiry into the role that non-executive directors play in maintaining standards of corporate behaviour in the light of the Enron and Worldcom scandals and a study of the impacts that new environmental legislation is having on UK companies.
Prince Charles unveils a plaque formally opening the Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society watched by the Centre's Director, Professor Ken Peattie.
"Businesses need to know how they can make substantive progress and overcome the many barriers that exist, and this is where academic research plays an important part in helping to understand the changes that are needed," said Professor Peattie.
The Vice-Chancellor presents Prince Charles with a copy of Cardiff University: A Celebration.

Princess Anne speaks at the opening of the Hydroinformatics Conference in Cardiff
The Princess Royal congratulated Cardiff University scientists for work which is contributing to the management of water-related issues locally and world-wide.
Her Royal Highness Princess Anne said Cardiff and Bristol universities provided UK centres of expertise in these areas. Speaking at the opening of the Hydroinformatics Conference in Cardiff, organised by the two universities, she praised both for supporting an international approach to research and understanding in this area. The conference was attended by more than 300 delegates from more than 45 countries.
Vice-Chancellor Dr David Grant watches as HRH Princess Anne is presented with a posy by Sarah Falconer.
Through her responsibilities on behalf of many charities Princess Anne has considerable knowledge and experience of water management issues, particularly those affecting third world countries.
"An integrated approach, involving many disciplines, is important," she said. "So too is collaboration and communication. It is also important to recognise the limitations of models and knowledge when dealing with an unpredictable natural environment. Humility in the face of natural forces is wise. Your recognition of uncertainty is a strength, but it is one which you will not be thanked for."
HRH Princess Anne meets a group of support staff from the School of Engineering.
The science of hydroinformatics uses sophisticated computer models to analyse the laws of nature and predict flood levels in rivers. These models can also predict levels of sediment and bacteria - giving early warning of disease and contamination.
Combined with networking technology, including the mobile 'phone, scientists can provide farmers in India and Bangladesh with instant and readily understandable information, helping them to plan when best to harvest. Hydroinformatics can also help local environmental agencies, disaster agencies or the fire services to prepare for the onset of major storms.
The keynote conference address was given by Mrs Vaijayanti Bendre, the Director of Central Water and Power Research Station in Pune, the premier research institution in India. She described how India is rising to the challenge of managing water resources, based on a host of projects ranging from flood control and irrigation to discharge of effluents and structural and foundation engineering.
The conference was organised by Professors Roger Falconer, of Cardiff University's School of Engineering and Director of the University's Environmental Water Management Research Centre, and Professor Ian Cluckie, Director of the Water and Environmental Management Research Centre at the University of Bristol, in association with the International Association for Hydraulic Engineering and Research, the International Water Association and the International Association of Hydrological Sciences. The Conference is also endorsed by the Royal Academy of Engineering, the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management and the Environmental Agency. Sponsors of the event are: Cardiff City Council, Halcrow Group Ltd, Bristol Water and South West Water.

"Rapid urbanisation presents increasing challenges of how to ensure a sustainable water environment and adequate water supplies for our future generations," said Professor Falconer. "For scientists and water engineers these are global, not local challenges, and it is crucial that we exchange ideas and experiences. Communities simply cannot live without water and in this respect it is our most precious commodity."

Neighborhoods: West Oak Hill, Oak Hill
food good but Management sucks – I went to eat there and there was a hair in my food and i went and told the guy behind the counter and all he did was grab the plate did not even say sorry about that. and i order tender so he was grabing the tenders and puting the big pieces back untill he got the smalls ones. i said to him i guess you just gave me the small pieces. he did not say anything,, so them i ask one of guys there if he was the manager and he said he was the owner so i ask if the other guy was his son and he said yes so i told him he has a attitude all he say was he thought i had a attitude. that is not the way you take to customers..
Fast, Friendly & DELICIOUS!
This is by far the best place to get chicken hands down. I have tried other golden chick locations and other chicken places in the past but none compare to this one. It is a family owned and run business and they are very friendly and a great group of people. The food is always awesome and they have never got an order wrong. I reccommend this place to anyone wether you are just looking for a snack or looking to cater a party.
Best Chicken Ever? – I have to say, I have never been anything but pleased with the food and service this location has to offer. Everything is hot and fresh and the tenders are HUGE and juicy. My only issue or suggestion is I wish the gravy portions where a little bigger as the tenders are big and I like to mix the two. You can watch them prepare the food as they cook right in front of you. They clear out the fries and avoid adding new to old. Just some of the little things that make the food taste great all the time.

You need to configure 32bit Oracle for PAE and AWE extensions in order to address more memory than what the default Win32 memory manager allows. But are these extensions not only applicable to a Win32 kernel? Does a Win64 kernel supports memory extensions for Win32 virtual machines running in it?
Phase One:
Keep every thing as is except change the OS from 32 bit to 64 bit so that the memory can increase upto 32 G, its a big change will give us some time.
Two new servers (which we have) Install RAC, Oracle same version, use Grid and no ASM.Not using ASM would be a mistake. Yesterday I moved a production database (RAC) from an old SAN to a new SAN. Database downtime? 0 seconds. Thanks to ASM.
Phase Two:
Upgrade to 11g
The only thing is that I search but could not find any document for installing RAC on two seperate servers (64 bit 2003), they are either ASM or Oracle Cluster or Virtual.
I did found some links and documentation on moving from 32 bit to 64 bit.
Two new servers (which we have) Install RAC, Oracle same version, use Grid and no ASM.RAC on Windows and No ASM? What s/w cluster you will use to provide the cluster filesystem?

Keeping my skills and the DBA who is much more qualified then me but with no RAC experience can you refer any document that can guide us step by step. I do not want to get help from our support as they are charging us very high and I do not have that many hours left (part of the contract). I want to take up the task and do it but before I step in I want to cover everything. One last question, for a DBA with RAC experience how much time will this project take?
I took your advice had to convince my boss, and now we have decided to install RAC on 2008 windows with ASM.About ASM:
The Question asked by the SA is how many disks and what sizes do you need?
We have a database size of 800GB and the size on SAN is 1TB.

Hi. My name is Tim and this is actually my second challenge. I completed my first one in about 14 weeks last August with really good results, but after a slight break and trying some different exercises I found it difficult to stay motivated without a real target. So before I revert back to being an unhealthy sloth as I was before Challenge 1 I have decided to get back into it again.
On my last challenge we had a really good group on here that supported each other and I hope we can develop the same thing here on this thread. So welcome, and please introduce yourself. I am an Australian, now living in the UK so am ineligible for the Challenge, but that still didn't stop me posting my previous before and after pics in my last week of C1, as I will this time. Bit daunting, but is something to really aim working out hard for.
So welcome to the post-Easter Challenge!!!
Tim- there are a group of us looking to start April 1. Be on the lookout for a new post thread coming soon. If you see the January 7 post, it's that group.
JRM how about we move the jan 7 to here?
I am in for April 1 and I just finishing up First round this Sunday.
I would join in but I do want to start on the BFL Challenge official date a week later of 8 APril and wil be starting my CHallenge on that date with a photo the same day as well. Best of wishes to you and your group in this challenge.
Keep MOving Forward!!!
Bill where are these official dates? Do you have to start on an official date to qualify?
Hi all.. I'm in for april 1. I just had my second baby and really looking forwrd to be back to pre-pregnant weight. really motivated,because this bfl had helped me to lose 38 pounds before the pregnancy.. Hope we can support each other here!
I'm new to this challenge and very excited to get started. I read that the next challenge date starts on April 8th...do we need to wait until then to get started? I'm ready to change my life and love the idea of this support group.
Hey Tim, I'm starting the program April 1st too. Looking forward to some motivation from a group that will start the same time. I work as a Radiation therapist in a cancer center. I'm also a busy mother of a daughter Ava 7, Lex 5, and my twins Jake and Wade 2. I'm really busy but really motivated to start. Sick of people asking if I'm due when it's the post twin tummy sticking around. Here I come post-Easter Challenge....
I'm starting tomorrow, I need something to keep me focused. I'm ready to give it my all.
I'm starting on the 31st - tomorrow. Would love to be a part of the group if the one day earlier start date is okay with you. I'm 52 years old - been in a fitness slump for the past 3 years. I'm in the worst shape of my life! Simply knowing I am starting the program has lifted my mood and given me something to look forward to, so I am very excited to begin.
A little about me - I've always been in fairly good shape, an on again/off again exerciser - but always mostly on. Not a lot of intense workouts like this program, but enough to stay fit and feeling well. 3 years ago I was laid off work while at the same time finding out my mom was diagnosed with Dementia. My dad had suffered a massive stroke leaving him paralyzed and unable to speak. I've been caring for them in my home - my dad passed away in December. It's been a long haul, my mom is still here and I am noticing how terribly out of shape I am. I eat all the wrong foods and my joints ache when I am helping her up and down. It's getting harder and harder to help her. I've been in a terrible rut, not feeling motivated to do anything beyond the daily stuff and I plop on the couch at night and eat junk.
My mood has been so great since this program came to my attention. I feel happier and more optimistic than I have in so long. I hope to get into a group where we can support one another - so would be glad if you let me join.
Hello Tim and gang! i would LOVE to join this group. I am realatively new to BFL. I tried to start a few years past, but I had no support and failed to continue after a week. I am 50 years old and I need to do something or I am going to spend my remaining years in poor health. I am hoping that I can give and receive support so that all of us will succeed. I am about 50-60 pounds overweight and I realize that it may take multiple 12 week sessions to reach my goal.
Looks like a great start everyone. My meals are mapped out for the next 3 days. Went to the nutrition store last night for supplements. Tomorrow is an upper body workout at 6:00am. Can't wait to get going. This week off has me feeling terrible!
Welcome everybody!! Looks like a really good group to start. Hopefully we will add even more as we go along. This weekend I stocked my fridge with the ingredients for my meals this week and planned out each day. Tonight I am putting together my gym plan. Upper Body first thing tomorrow morning. Sub-zero temperature to wake up to before heading to the gym, and it is a public holiday over here in the UK tomorrow, but I'm really looking forward to getting back into it. Just need to rug up warm!!
For those of you who are new to this I have some tips to help you:
1) Use a diary and pre-plan your meals and exercise schedule in advance. This really makes a difference and is probably the most important tip of all!!
2) Your muscles will really hurt after your first 2-3 sessions and the pain will hang around for 3-4 days. However, the BFL program works different body parts on different days, giving your sore muscles a rest, whilst working the other areas. The soreness will subside after about Week 2 as your muscles get used to the extra work.
3) Ditch all the sweet stuff in your house if you have cravings like me. I'm a chocoholic and love Ben & Jerry's icecream, however the house is empty of it all. I'll get the luxury stuff next Sunday on my Free Day. If it's in the house I will sneak some, so that's why it's gone.
4) I set this forum on my browser start page, so as soon as I start the internet this forum is displayed. Keeps me focused.
I have some other tips and tricks for later, and I'm sure the many of you have also done this before will also be able to provide advice. The next 12 weeks will have many up and downs for each of us, but that's why we are all here to help and support each other. We will have distractions from friends, family, and work, but when these next 12 weeks are over it will be Summer. And being an Australian, Summer is the best time of the year!!! Plus we'll all look and feel much better in ourselves!! :)
Okay team. Let's begin!!!

Letters to an Angel (Pisma k Angelu) by Ermek Shinarbaev (Kazakhstan, 2009, 92 min.). One winter night in Almaty, Gulnara seduces a young novelist. When he tells her a story he's written, she responds with a beguiling tale of her own about a woman, perhaps herself, who has simultaneous affairs with two men. The tale concludes with a haunting twist. One of Kazakhstan's most accomplished directors, Ermek Shinarbaev, crafts a suspenseful, surprising and beautifully shot film infused with an aura of erotic melancholy. This film questions the boundaries of truth and fiction, and highlights just how much a narrative depends on the teller; it is never quite clear whether Gulnara's story is itself an invention, and who is really responsible for what unfolds. Ayganim Sadykova delivers a riveting performance as the mysterious Gulnara. Discussion with director and American independent film producer Michael Fitzgerald follows the November 14 screening. In Russian with English subtitles.

2011 Year-End Screening Review: A Difficult Year for Stocks and Strategies
by Wayne A. Thorp, CFA
After a strong rebound in 2010, the market has seen a muddled 2011. Economic concerns, both domestically and abroad, have had the market indexes on a yo-yo throughout the year. Fears persist of an economic collapse in Europe stemming from the Greek debt crisis, while here at home politicians on both sides of the aisle appear unable or unwilling to address unemployment and the federal debt leading into a presidential election year.
Year-to-date, through December 9, 2011, the S&P 500 is down 0.2% on a simple price-change basis, excluding dividends. If the index doesn't inch into positive territory over the last weeks of 2011, it will break a two-year winning streak.
This year has been equally difficult on the AAII stock screens. Of the 63 we track at AAII.com, only 24 are currently up for the year and outperformed the S&P 500 year-to-date. The median, or midpoint, price decline for all the screens is 3.8%, compared to a median price gain of 24.9% for the same set of screens in 2010.

How do I find the stocks passing the O'Neil's CAN SLIM Screen during 2011 ?
Wayne from Illinois posted over 2 years ago:
We do not archive the companies that pass the screens each month because, over time, these lists become obsolete due to mergers, acquisitions, bankruptcies, name changes, etc., etc. If you are a subscriber to AAII's Stock Investor Pro program, you can access historical monthly data updates to see which companies passed a screen as of a given date. Wayne A. Thorp, CFA, AAII
Daniel from Alabama posted over 2 years ago:
Great analysis of the winning screen. In addition to picking winning stocks, the fact that they came in spread over the year at the right time played a huge role in the results. A big gain came in the first month of the year from owning just one stock , and then the gain was passed to the next fresh horse as it went by, compounding the gains.
Consider that if all four stocks had passed in January, and money was invested equally, the portfolio gain for the year would have been the average of the individual gains, or a "mere" 29%.
Perfect (ie,lucky) timing clearly made a huge difference in the results for this screeen.
Dave from Washington posted over 2 years ago:
I would agree, using these stock screens can be hazardous to your financial health, as getting a 117% return last year is nothing more than luck - some of course will claim otherwise, as always.
As an investor what you have to be leery of is following any "scheme" that puts you too far off the market average in ANY one year.
In other words consistency is the name of the game, not chasing last years greatest thing.
I will go out on a limb here and say there is no way for a repeat performace this year - at least as a percentage above the market average. I suspect there may even be some "reversion to the mean" this year.
Britni from California posted over 2 years ago:
Hi Wayne
Great article--thanks.
"Our backtesting methodology has each portfolio being rebalanced at the end of each month."
What is your backtesting methodology? What applications do you use to perform the backtesting?
David from Oregon posted over 2 years ago:
Nice analysis of the 2011 winners. You mentioned "cursory" qualitative screening after the quantitative screens. What exactly are you talking about? I have been attempting to invest intelligently but always just seem to miss the boat. I have been following the AAII stock superstars since 2005 but haven't seen the returns that it made in the past. I am looking for solid thinking. I have gotten burned by the herd.
Charles from Illinois posted over 2 years ago:
David, the news headlines are a good place to start; look for anything not reflected in the data that would change your outlook. I also scan through the SEC documents, particularly Form 10-K, which is the company's annual report (http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html). I'm looking for anything could be good or bad (e.g. a conflict of interest between the CEO and a company he wants to acquire). I also look at the chart and make I understand why the reasons for the price movement. Finally, look for anything that explains the business model and potential risks the company may be facing. -Charles

Madhu from New Jersey posted over 2 years ago:
Dear Wayne Thorp,
A modest request. Is it possibe for AAII to develop and post O'Shaunessey 4th edition screens? Just as you have developed O'Neill revised screen, you might as well develop revised O'Schaunessey screens. I am sure you are aware of the 4th edition revised screens. All the same, for your ready reference, I am listing the three: 1. Value Factor One (made up of 1. Price-to-book 2. Price-to-earnings 3. Price-to-sales 4. EBITDA/EV 5. Price-to-cash flow.) 2. Value Factor Two (adding shareholder yield to the five factors above) and 3. Value Factor Three (substituting buyback yield for sharholder yield in Value Factor Two).
Performance based on as many as 46 years is simply phenomenal: Value Factor One: Average annual return 17.18%; Value Factor Two: 21.19; Value Factor Three: 17.39. Results of Value Factor Two are a combination of value factors AND Relative Strengh of six months. Risk is actually lower with Sharpe Ratio of 0.93. For more details, please refer to What Works On Wall Street, 4th ed., p579-591.
Sorry for such a lengthy email. In case you are too busy and cannot develop these screens in near future, can you help me in developing them?
Thanks and many thanks.
Ted from Washington posted over 2 years ago:
I have the same request as Madhu. Curious whether the O'Shaunessey screens might be in the new AAII Dividend Investing service, or whether it might be available on the generally available screens.
Wayne from Illinois posted over 2 years ago:
I have the book sitting on my desk and hope to get to it in the coming weeks. Wayne A. Thorp, CFA, editor, Computerized Investing
John from Virginia posted over 2 years ago:
I would request that ya'll try to be consistent and specific when naming screens in your articles and advertisements. For example, in the July 2011 Journal inside the back cover is an ad for SIPRO. In that ad, you list six screens, but not all by the same name that appears in SIpro program. For example, you say that James O'Shaughnessy is up 29.4%. WHICH O'Shaughnessy? There are six to choose from, all quite different.

First, the good parts. They stood out. Indeed, the president's general tone Tuesday night, despite the reflexive class warfare here and there, was much less fast and furious than his re-inaugural address -- as if now he wanted to work with the opposition rather than just excoriate it.
"We can do this," Mr. Obama assured the country. Just what we can do -- will it be for good or ill? -- may not always be clear, but at least Tuesday night he seemed interested in bringing us together instead of driving us further apart.
The partisan boilerplate that issued forth from the usual Republican sources after this year's State of the Union was all the less convincing after the president's resort to reasonableness, at least in tone and gesture -- which count for a lot.
. . .
Indeed, style can be all when it comes to getting things done, as Ronald Reagan well knew when cajoling even an old irascible like Tip O'Neill, the long-time leader of the opposition in the Gipper's day. Mr. Reagan's program may have been to the right of right, but he was always nicer than nice, personally likeable and even politically flexible after he'd done his rhetorical worst, or rather best. After all, why make enemies he didn't already have -- if he could further his principles, anyway? And he certainly did that.
. . .
This president struck just the right tone when it came to finally fixing this country's long-broken immigration system. Omitting the inevitable self-promotion ("we can build on the progress my administration's already made," and such), what the president said made good sense:
"Real reform means strong border security. ... Real reform means establishing a responsible pathway to earned citizenship, a path that includes passing a background check, paying taxes and a meaningful penalty, learning English, and going to the back of the line behind the folks trying to come here legally. And real reform means fixing the legal immigration system to cut waiting periods and attract the highly skilled entrepreneurs and engineers that will help create jobs and grow our economy."
. . .
If only this president had included poets and seers and freedom-fighters, and the great dancers and musicians of our time, as meriting visas, too -- the Solzhenitsyns and Sharanskys, the Rostropoviches and Baryshnikovs. But who could argue with his general idea? Except of course the usual soreheads who would rather fight this problem than ever solve it. But there seem to be fewer and fewer of those these days, or at least they no longer seem to have as much support.
. . .
If only the president had fought, really fought, for this kind of reform his first term, and if only he'll get serious about it in his second, maybe all of us can finally put this nigh-eternal issue behind us. And get on with making the kind of history a nation of immigrants should.
The president also struck a reasonable note on gun control/gun rights, saluting the Second Amendment while recognizing that it's not a license for more Newtowns and Columbines and, here in Arkansas, Jonesboros.
Yes, let's finally have meaningful background checks at gun shows, instead of inviting felons, nutcases and dubious characters in general to start assembling arsenals all their own. Come, let us reason together.
Then maybe we'll find other such obvious reforms all law-abiding citizens can agree on. Even if it's clear we're just nibbling around the issue instead of recognizing that it requires what Rudy Giuliani did to clean up New York: vigorous law enforcement on the local level that ignores no breach of the peace, however minor the infraction. The Broken Windows approach to police work, it's called.
Then there was the bad. Here's a brief summation and (very) free translation of the president's remarks in an attempt to translate his instant cliches into plain English:
"I want you to know that I'm all for the middle class and for expanding it when I'm not taxing it to death, and that goes for small business, too, when I'm not loading it down with taxes and penalties and forms to fill out. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (none dare call it Obamacare in my administration), health-insurance premiums are increasing dramatically, and our entire approach to better medicine is being carefully wrapped in red tape, mountains of it. What's more, I promise there'll be more of it once we find out all that's in Obama -- I mean the Affordable Care Act.
. . .
"I want to assure you, as I go down the list of challenges facing this great nation, that there's not a one that more government spending won't fix. Why, the economy is already improving noticeably thanks to my ministrations. Pay no mind to those unemployment figures. I'm certainly not going to mention them tonight, just make a passing remark about the need for more jobs. I'm sure the next economic stimulus I get passed will be as effective as the first in getting this vibrant, improving economy started again.

A nightmare is a bad dream that brings out strong feelings of fear, terror, distress, or anxiety
Nightmares usually begin before age 10 and are most often considered a normal part of childhood. They tend to be more common in girls than boys. Nightmares may be triggered by seemingly routine events, such as starting at a new school, taking a trip, or a mild illness in a parent.
Nightmares may continue into adulthood. They can be just one way our brain has of dealing with the stresses and fears of everyday life. One or more nightmares over a short period of time may be caused by:
Nightmares may also be triggered by:
Repeated nightmares may also be a sign of:
Stress is a normal part of life. In small amounts, stress is good. It can motivate you and help you get more done. But too much stress can be harmful.
If you are under stress, ask for support from friends and relatives. Talking about what is on your mind can help.
Other tips include:
Try using relaxation techniques, such as guided imagery, listening to music, doing yoga, or meditating. With some practice, these techniques could help you reduce stress.
Listen to your body when it tells you to slow down or take a break.
Practice good sleep hygiene. Go to bed at the same time each night, and wake up at the same time each morning. Avoid long-term use of tranquilizers, as well as caffeine
and other stimulants
If your nightmares started shortly after you began taking a new medication, contact your health care provider. He or she will let you know whether to stop taking that medication.
For nightmares caused by the effects of "street drugs" or regular alcohol use, ask for advice from your doctor on the safest and most effective way to quit.
Contact your health care provider if:
Your health care provider will examine you and ask you questions. Next steps may include:

Mon. thru Sat.
Neighborhoods: Loma Alta
WOW!!!! I have dealt with Argo quite a few times as a homeowner. I've had gravel and R/R ties delivered on a number of occasions. I have found their staff to be courteous and efficient. I must admit, I've always talked to a lady on the phone. I think I've called about 10-times in all and talked to the same lady each time........ Their prices are fair, there deliveries have been as scheduled and very cooperative.
Terrible Customer Service – I work on base at Camp Pendleton which is located fairly close to argo stone. I called in order to get a qoute on white gravel that we are trying to purchase in order to complete a memorial for fallen Marines. The guy that answered the phone was a complete ahole, his first statement when I enquired about getting the gravel was "who are you" in a aggerssive un polite tone. When I told him who I was he proceeded to chew me out and tell me how we always call him for quotes and never buy anything. I am following procedures in order to buy, as a goverment cardholder you have to obtain 3 diffrerent quotes before you make a decision on which one you are going to go with, but this guy took his self completely out of the race. He told me he would not give me a quote and not to call back. Really how hard is it to email a quote!!! Judging from the other reviews I am not the first one to deal with this guy.
Bad customer service – I visited Argo on a Saturday to purchase some river rock. I encountered the rudest sales associate I've ever met. It was so bad I asked if they even wanted me as a customer. I'll never go back.

Close to the stadium and easy in and out, definitely will use again.
Worked well.
Very convenient. Will definitely park here again.
We were really pleased with the parking location and the lot lighting. It was also easy to enter and easy to exit to return to I75
Parking was great!! Staff was helpful and location was perfect!!!
the parking was excellent and would highly recommend
This is a large, paved parking lot protected on all sides by a black metal fence. This lot is just across the street from the home plate area of Comerica Park. This location allows easy accessibility and exiting by way of I-75.
Managed by Olympia Development Parking. This location is a commercial parking lot.
Nearby destinations: Ford Field, Comerica Park, Detroit Opera House, Fox Theatre Detroit.
This lot is located on E Montcalm St, and runs from Woodward Ave to John R St. The main entrance is on the south side of E Montcalm St, just a little west of the intersection with John R St. Look for a forest green attendant booth with yellow gate arms on each side and an A-frame "Lot # Parking" sign.

The White House has never been so white….
White House Grounds - The mesh
The White House complex is not as simple as it seems.
Washington D.C. is, topographically speaking, mainly flat. However, there are slight variations in topography, which, in the area of the White House, tend to fall down to the river Potomac in very smooth slopes.
The green areas next to the White House complex are, instead, a bit more tricky. Due to a constant arrival of expansions the whole area has suffered from artificial transformations of the terrain. We can notice all this while we take a walk around the buildings, finding from tiny and curvy hills in the southern lawns to steep slopes in the northern ones… or even sudden changes of level hold by breast walls right next to the central building.
It can seem, by looking at the renderings below, that everything is flat, however, if you pay attention carefully, you will notice all these topographical variations.
First-ever test renderings of the White House grounds….checking for mistakes.
Some previous of my new project…guess the building?
The White House, Washington D.C.
Munich - Barcelona, like Guardiola but the other way round…
The India experiment went fine, but I felt very nostalgic form the west. After Amritsar I moved to Dharamsala, were lots of western people lives and works…I stayed for another month, it was awesome…but I had to come back.
I guess it was time to get home and start over again, however, the Spanish crisis was not very appealing, I had to do it differently, maybe not going to the city, maybe to the countryside…
Once back, I checked all the photographic content that I did in Munich, and I found a nice one of the Deutscher Kaiser, near the central station.
At the beginning I did not know that this project was going to going to end up the way it did.
NHDK (2013) (only 10 images)
From Olimpia Stadion to Amritsar…
The woman I was taking care of lived in a very modern neighborhood. Taking in consideration her disability she had to live in a building where there were no obstacles for her mobility.
Things were going ok, however, the contract lasted 6 months and she decided not to renovate it…as she probably understood that I was not the best profile for the kind of job I was doing.
So, I found myself without job living in a very expensive city and with an enormous need to continue with my artistic production.
Call me stupid, but at that time I thought that going to India (a country I knew already) could be positive to expand my savings, thus being free to focus in my art. So, I did. I packed with the minimum stuff, my 2 laptops, and made a trip to India.
Once there, destiny took me to the city of Amritsar where a fellow couchsurfer, Harish, offered me the chance to use his office. I stayed there 1 month and finish the piece below…
Learning German…
I love languages…they're just like the keys to everywhere in this world.
Since 1999 that I started with Italian, I've added to the list, Latvian, French, Hebrew and of course English.
But now, (2012) I'm in Germany…so I guess I have to learn German too…so I did.
I got lucky (again) with this issue as I happened to meet a very nice girl, Italian, called Manuela, specialized in languages, that was studying in the Goethe institute to finish her German studies. She offered to teach me for free, as she had to train for the near future.
During the first half of the course she was coming every day to my place, a wonderful flat in Laim, a residential neighborhood to the west. She was very serious and committed, always coming on time…except for one day.
I guess finding a house upside down is as exceptional as Manuela coming late on a date!
Thanks Manuela.
A new research…abroad
Hard to find my own place back in Barcelona, I decided to move, again, to some place new, somewhere safer, where I shouldn't have to renew any Visa every 3 months…so, it had to be within Europe (I guess I have to be thankful to the Schengen treaty…).
I contacted Marlene, and old friend from Tel Aviv, a journalist, german, from Munich…
Munich sound like totally different to Tel Aviv…and not so cold as in Riga…so, why not?
Amazingly she found me a job as a caretaker for a woman with disability…never done something like that in my life.
I needed the money, and I needed fresh air. So I took it.
Once in Munich, my love story with architecture kept on going. My first piece, dedicated to a contemporary apartments house surrounded by neoclassic ones…
Coming back to reality…
The fact of being expelled from Israel at the first time was not felt as something traumatic. It was going to be with the passing of time that I was going to start to feel a mix of feelings including disappointment, rage or nostalgia..
But the fact was that I came back to Barcelona…the place that is supposed to be my home…
Well…it is indeed, but after 3 years away…things were not so easy.
If was summer of 2011, and the first thing that hit me in the head was the astonishing mass of tourists, especially coming from Russia that were moving everywhere.
Barcelona was becoming a super money machine…yeah
