Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron
EmilySalyersville, KY USAI Love This Curling Iron!I have hard to curl hair and this iron is the best I've ever tried. My curls last all day and it is simple to use.posted Jan 17, 2010Link to this post
ChristiSmelled So Bad.This >.< smelled soo bad. I couldn't even preceed to TRY to curl my hair. I'm trying to return this.posted Jan 6, 2010Link to this post
MintaProvo, Ut UsaLove ItI have straight and almost non-curlable hair, but this curls my hair quickly and the curls last. So far I've just used it for the loose curls that look more natural, but I have also used it once for tighter curls and just sprayed them more with hairspray and they stay long too. It seems like a good one for the natural looking loose curls (better with long hair obviously). Great quality and spring and I love the axil it rotates on while I'm curling my hair so the cord doesn't get wrapped around when I turn it in place. I keep the heat to medium or below because it can get really hot and I don't need that or want that for my hair. Thank you folica.com!posted Jan 6, 2010Link to this post
TriciaSpring Squeaks.I ordered the 1 1/4 inch. It has been working well for me. My only complaint is the spring squeaks loudly every time I open and close the curling iron and my hair gets caught in the stand if I am not careful. Other than that it stays hot and curls well. To others having trouble with curl holding I would say you ordered to big of barrel for your hair length.posted Jan 5, 2010Link to this post
MitziColumbus, Ohio USAThis Is The Tool For Me!I am ordering my fourth hot tools curling iron! Yes, that's how much I love this iron. I will say, the spring broke on one, which I had for years (now the company supplies an extra spring in the box) and the gold came off another,probably due to too much product on my hair. My latest iron must have a short in the cord because everytime the cord hangs straight down, the light goes off. Aggravating, but understandable as I use this tool every day, sometimes twice a day and I've had it for several years. This is a great tool. Ordering the 3/4" barrell for poker straight hair. It does the trick and what a great price. I would highly recommend this curling iron.posted Jan 3, 2010Link to this post
NadiaNJSmellyI bought the 1 1/4 inch expecting it to work great on my straight, hard to curl hair, as i've heard from all the reviews. this curling iron turned out not curling my hair at all and left my hair smelling disgusting. Has this happened to anyone else?posted Dec 29, 2009Link to this post
RoseVancouver, BC, CanadaI Love This IronI'm on my 2nd one and I have used it religiously for over 8 years! My 1st one broke because I had it in my suitcase and the airlines were rough with my luggage. So I got the replacement 2 years ago and this really is the best curling iron I have ever used. Any one that tries it wants to buy one too. I have stick straight Asian hair and nothing curls my hair better than Hot Tools. Highly recommended!!!posted Dec 14, 2009Link to this post
JuliaNJNot What Was ExpectedI just got the two inch and i was so excited to try it out and when i did i noticed it straightened my hair rather then curl it. The iron itself was ok, but i think the 2 inch was just way to big. i have long thick hair and I was looking for big volumus curles and it just didnt deliver. So if you have short hair i really dont recommend the 2 inch..it most likey will work on really long hip length hair. hope this helps! oh and ps: im exchanging it for a 1 1/2 ichposted Dec 13, 2009Link to this post
SueCanadaPretty Good ProductPurchased this in Sept/09; does curl well although I believe the 1" as opposed to the 1-1/2" barrel would provide better curls. Hair does sometimes get caught in the barrel. Is worth the money; shipping to Canada within 3 days.posted Dec 9, 2009Link to this post

Birdsong (Movie Tie-In Edition) (Vintage International)by Sebastian Faulks
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Published to international critical and popular acclaim, this intensely romantic yet stunningly realistic novel spans three generations and the unimaginable gulf between the First World War and the present. As the young Englishman Stephen Wraysford passes through a tempestuous love affair with Isabelle Azaire in France and enters the dark, surreal world beneath the trenches of No Man's Land, Sebastian Faulks creates a world of fiction that is as tragic as A Farewell to Arms and as sensuous as The English Patient. Crafted from the ruins of war and the indestructibility of love, Birdsong is a novel that will be read and marveled at for years to come.
About the AuthorSebastian Faulks worked as a journalist for fourteen years before taking up writing full-time in 1991. In 1995 he was voted Author of the Year by the British Book Awards for Birdsong. He is also the author of Human Traces, On Green Dolphin Street, Charlotte Gray, The Fatal Englishman, The Girl at the Lion d'Or, Engleby, and the James Bond novel Devil May Care. He lives in London with his wife and three children.

What it's Really Like to be a Photographer
By Ieva • Mar 19th, 2013 • Category: Art, Graphic Design, Latest Posts, PhotographyPhotographer's job is probably one of the most romanticized jobs today, but is the reality all that nice and attractive?

If you just pick General Studies, you may be stuck taking classes that you either don't like, don't count towards you degree, or even worse, you fail. So really think about what you want to major in, otherwise you might be here for more than two years!
Bang for the buck You definitely get a bang for your buck here! That's exactly why I chose Iowa Western Community College. You're getting the same education, and taking the exact same classes as University students, for half the price! With the economy at it's current state, this is something that you shouldn't overlook.
Am enjoying being here The campus is wonderful, and there's always something fun to do with friends. The only downside that I see is if you don't live on campus, which I don't. So it's kind of hard to schedule meetings and classes when I have to commute back and forth to my house.
Am learning a lot The great thing about Iowa Western Community College, is that even though it's a two-year college, it doesn't lack anything that a four-year college has. I'm loving my classes, and learning quite a bit more than I thought I would from the teachers here. What I think is great about the teachers, is that they support you and become your mentors if you need them to be. That's really important because after you graduate, you'll have an abundance of teachers you can talk to from networking at Iowa Western.

What to do for fun I do not live on campus.
Food and Dining Very nice facility. I have not personally eaten there, but it smells wonderful.
Dorm Life Drive back and forth, though other students I have talked to love the suites that are available.
Academic Rigor For a community college it has a lot to offer compared to other community colleges.
Tips for prospective students Attend orientation that is offered prior to attending classes. Have a goal or degree to work towards, even if you think you may change your mind. Always attend class and do your assignments when given so you do not fall behind. Make sure the credits that you are receiving will transfer if you plan to go to a four year university/college.
In three sentences Love the class size. Free tutoring available. Current instructors are very supportive and want all students to succeed.

Tips for prospective students Make sure you do not wait for the last minute to register or pay for your classes. The admissions department gets really busy during peak times and it is sometimes very difficult to effectively communicate with the staff. But I also work full time and it's very hard to play phone tag. There's a lot of people you can email though and it goes much quicker.
In three sentences Iowa Western is a community college with a university feel. The campus is beautiful and functional and there is definitely something for everyone here.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Great for very self-motivated learners.
Bang for the buck With many scholarships availble and a relatively cheap tuition, it offers students a good educational value for the money.
What to do for fun There truly isn't much to do for fun around the area, especially if students are limited by transportation. This could however be a blessing by forcing the student to focus on the task at hand.
Tips for prospective students Prospective students should remember they are there for education first and need to abide by the life-style that it demands, and try not to get lost in the typical slacker scene
In three sentences Overall I would say the expectations at IWCC are relatively low in comparison to most schools. They have however done a great job of expansion and trying to increase curriculum difficulty. But this institution has much growth to still accomplish if it wishes to compete with other universities in the area.

Categories Comments What to do for fun The school offers intramural sports, and most of the sports teams are ranked nationally. Most students go home on the weekends. For fun we travel across the bridge to Omaha, NE or catch a game in Lincoln, NE.
Food and Dining The dining hall serves good food. All the food is made and prepared by the culinary arts students.
Dorm Life Life in the dorms is what you would expect at any college. The weekends can get quite loud. The cyber library is open for use, and is the best place to study.
Academic Rigor The courses that are offered aren't that tough. The introductory courses are also taken by high school seniors. The main thing to understand is that as a student you have to manage your time. There must be a balance between academics, extracurricular activities, and hanging out with your friends.
Tips for prospective students I would suggest that prospective students and their parents come on campus and look around. You can speak with an academic advisor, have a current student show you around the campus, and answer any questions that you may have.
In three sentences The college is a community college, but you get the feel of being on a 4 year college when you step on campus. The student body is diverse with students from different states and countries. The advisors and instructors go out of their way to help students succeed.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Our campus is very secure. I see security officers driving around the campus all the time and they walk around the building as well. I had one experience when I locked my keys inside my car in the middle of winter and a security officer was there very soon to unlock my door and relieve me from the cold. I am very glad Iowa Western cares so much about student safety.
Greek Life I am currently not part of a sorority.
Clubs and Activities Unfortunately I haven't had a change to join a club at Iowa Western but they have a bunch of clubs to choose from. Its hard for me to be involved in a club because I live 25 minutes away from campus.
Great for these types of students Iowa Western is a great college for students that want a smaller classroom setting and teachers that really care about how they do in college.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Wrestling and Football are big deals at Iowa Western. We all come together for the matches and cheer on our team. More so here than I've seen at other colleges!
Bang for the buck One of the main reasons why I choose Iowa Western was because I have to pay for all of my own school and this was one of few that I could possible afford. I attended University of Nebraska at Lincoln and I feel like I learn just as much at Iowa Western as I did at UNL
What to do for fun I like to go Frisbee golfing with my friends. I like to be outside as much as I can. I also enjoy going to see movies when I have free time.
Food and Dining The food there is excellent! Always a good selection and they have healthy choices that taste great!
Dorm Life I have not lived in the dorms on campus, but from what I've seen they are very nice!
Academic Rigor The teachers work hard to make sure their students excel and are in the degree that fits their interests.
Tips for prospective students I would advise finding good study habits before college because college classes are a lot different than high school classes.
In three sentences I have really enjoyed my experiences at Iowa Western. The teachers care about the success of their students and I enjoy going to class. I am happy with my decision to go to Iowa Western!

Dorm Life Unfortunately, I don't live in the dorms, but I've heard they're nice.
Academic Rigor It depends on the class you take so IDK how to answer this one.
Tips for prospective students Get an advisor and ask every question you have. Then ask general questions to try to pick up on anything you missed. Finally, when you're all out of questions ask a little more incase. I know I could have made things a bit easier on myself if I'd bothered to ask the right questions.
In three sentences I like it there. It's not perfect but no college is. They're very clear about what you have to do to get your degree.

Great for these types of students It's a good place for anyone going into a nursing or doctorate degree and for anyone who don't know what to do.
Bang for the buck The price isn't bad, and you can get financial help. For the price it is, it's a great education.
What to do for fun There's sporting events going on, and admissions are always trying to have some event. And Council Bluffs is right over the river from Omaha, NE.
Food and Dining I haven't experienced the food here, but I was told it wasn't the greatest.
Dorm Life I don't live in the dorms, but from what my friends told me they're great. It's set up in a suite style, you have your own room in a section that four people have access to. There are two bathrooms and its two to a bathroom.
Academic Rigor They have many programs you can start off with. So if you do know what you want to do but don't know what college to go to, you can start here before you transfer.
Tips for prospective students If you don't know what to do, don't go to a four year right away. Two year colleges are a great way to start out and you can get rid of the basic classes for a cheaper price.

Categories Comments Campus Safety To be able to park on campus, you have to get a permit sticker to put on your vehicle. IWCC has campus security vehicles that routinely inspect the parking lot.
Clubs and Activities IWCC has SO much going on. My last semester there, they started these really cool hobby classes where you can go and learn how to draw, crochet, and knit, among others. IWCC has a frisbee-golf team and their own on campus course. Other clubs include: Ag Club, Culinary Arts, Athletic Training, and many more!
Great for these types of students Any kind of person would be happy going here. I'm an introvert, so I find it hard to make friends sometimes because I'm such a shy person. At IWCC, it wasn't really a big deal because the class sizes were pretty small, so I didn't feel overwhelmed. IWCC was also great for me because I worked full time and attended college. IWCC had a lot of online courses, so I was able to save time by not having to drive to campus every day of the week.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The frolf (frisbee-golf) course is really awesome. Frolfing is a good way to relieve stress and to get some great exercise while on campus.
Bang for the buck Going to community college for your general education requirements is way cheaper than going straight to a university for all four years. IWCC is very reasonably priced considering the great campus, courses, and the awesome teachers.
What to do for fun There's a lot of things to do if you're looking for a good time on campus. There is a frisbee golf course on campus, as well as a gym and yoga classes. IWCC also has a student center where they have couches, TVs, and game systems. Off campus, there are nearby shops and restaurants to visit. Council Bluffs is also very close to Omaha, so the Henry Doorly Zoo is about 15 minutes away.
Food and Dining IWCC has a great cafeteria area. They also have an area in the book store that you can buy snacks if you so desire. Not too far from campus there are fast food restaurants, and of course there are more restaurants the farther you go into Council Bluffs.
Dorm Life I lived off campus, but friends who lived in dorms said that dorm life is great. Staying on campus is very convenient for most people, and it's a lot easier accessing the student library and the student center, not to mention the extracurricular activities IWCC offers.
Academic Rigor IWCC has many great classes and programs. Many of the classes that IWCC offers are very challenging, but the instructors are amazingly considerate and are willing to spend as much time as possible giving a helping hand.
Tips for prospective students Go to campus before classes start and get to know it. Find out where your classes are beforehand so that you don't get lost on your first day.
In three sentences IWCC is has so many great programs and classes. IWCC has amazing teachers. IWCC is perfect if you're planning on eventually transferring.

Categories Comments Campus Safety There are campus security. It is a safe campus and I never felt in danger, while I was there. Again, I am an online student that lives in Moore, Oklahoma.
Clubs and Activities I am not quite sure of all of this. What I do know is Iowa Western has many clubs and activities that students can be involved in- I have heard nothing but good things about fellow classmates and friends that are involved in them.
Great for these types of students ANY students should go to Iowa Western. They offer a variety of Online classes and classes in class. All of which will help any type of student for the way they learn- especially with the flexibility IWCC offers.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The campus is by the city, but in a quiet setting. The school is surrounded by school off of a busy street. It is a perfect place for quiet studying. There are trees, waterfalls, and so many different things to be around that isn't normal- at least I don't think it is.
Bang for the buck I am an online student in Moore, Oklahoma. I was involved in the Moore, Oklahoma tornado in 2013. With that said, it was a devastation in Moore that everything was hit, including all houses within a mile of my house. Altogether, during the time I was cleaning up and transitioning into a new home and rebuilding my city and home- Iowa Western professors and other employees at IWCC were flexible with me and helped me complete my classes in a orderly manor. No, they did not give me special treatment- but they did give me forgiveness. When the tornado happened they were truly understandable and gave me an extent on a the assignments that were due for that week and the next week. They are truly encouraging and did nothing but encourage me to try my best and they easily tested my knowledge.
What to do for fun Iowa isn't a fun state, but there are a couple different things you are able to do at Iowa Western. They have sports games you can watch, a couple miles away is one of the towns in Council bluffs that has many things to do- including the mall.
Food and Dining When I went on my college visit, I was able to eat some of their food and it is not bad. Of course it may not have been as good as Raising Canes, Taco bell or Mcdonald's; but the food they provide is nothing bad. At least nothing compared to cafeteria food in high school.
Dorm Life My sister attended Iowa Western, on campus. I visited the campuses and the dorms and they are extremely nice and taken care of. The students that live in them also have respect for other classmates and their privacy.
Academic Rigor I am an online student, but this school has constantly been giving me the education and opportunities that fit my needs. Iowa Western has tested my brain and helped me learn more than any school I have been too. My father was military, which shows that I have attended many schools- Iowa Western has been the best so far!
Tips for prospective students Prospective Students: If you are a prospective student, make sure that you have decided your major and the plan that you are taking for your course. Also, make sure that you ask as many questions possible when applying: what will transfer to and from the school, what classes they offer for your major online or in class, etc.
In three sentences Iowa Western Community college is an incredible school. They have given me nothing but opportunities since I started attending school at Iowa Western. This school is flexible, professional and an environment I would encourage any college student to be in.

Why Facebook's stock is tanking
Updated at 1:21 p.m. PT
Well, the euphoria over Facebook didn't last long, did it?
I would guess that the enthusiasm over Facebook's stock lasted a few minutes into its first-day trading session, peaking with a rare $45 order that many believe was more of a fluke than a true indication of demand.
Since then, reality has taken hold. The stock opened with a thud, and is down more than 12 percent to $33.56, a sobering reality for anyone caught with Facebook shares on Friday, when the stock closed just above its offering price of $… Read more

Interesting that she switched from a relatively non-competitive skating nation (field wise) to a very competitive nation. I would think she could easily make Euros and Worlds while skating for Belgium.
Interesting that she switched from a relatively non-competitive skating nation (field wise) to a very competitive nation. I would think she could easily make Euros and Worlds while skating for Belgium.
She was the USA junior champion in 1990, so she was away from US Nationals from 1991-1995. As gkelly noted, it seems she could not get her BEL eligibility to participate in the Olympics. She competed in three world championships for Belgium 1992-1994, but she did not attend either the 1992 or 1994 Olympics. I agree that she would have been a credit to the European ladies field in the 1990s (and the Worlds for that matter). There maybe were other factors--an injury as gkelly said--that caused her to leave the BEL federation.
She was a pretty skater, and I admire her for graduating from University of Minnesota at age 19.

Except it's not like she would qualify for the Olympics in 1998 while skating for the US. But if she stayed for Belgium at least she could skate at Worlds / Euros. I am not sure how injury could affect which federation to represent, but perhaps funding would.
Sato's programme was fantastic. That FW Shame about the combo - but considering others mistakes, she got screwed
Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. George Orwell
I stopped after the top 7, where the missing video was.
There were no formal "base values" then, but a lot of judges tended to mark the SP with a mental starting technical mark based on planned content, from which they took deductions or rewarded excellence. In that era, the judges expected ladies with an eye on the podium to be doing the 3Z-2T combination. By using an easier combination, Preston and Hubert are basically telling the judges they know they are not as good as the top competitors, and the judges will start them at a lower level.
Kristi Y would have been first on my card. She skated with ease and polish. IMO Chen Lu was a clear second.
After that we had two otherwise good skates each with a jump problem. Kerrigan doubled the Lutz and 2T was UR with both hands down (.2 or .4 deduction). Chouinard has a slight UR and step out on the 2 flip (.2 deduction). I think Kerrigan's much bigger jump problem should have put her behind Chouinard, maybe even Preston.
Then we have a clean but totally pedestrian skate from Preston with no lutz (3F-2T and 2Lo) and a clean but sloppy and totally juniorish skate from Hubert, also with no lutz (3 Lo-2T and 2F) and a spin that traveled pretty badly. I would have Preston in front of Hubert.
The real dilemma comes over where to place Harding. She popped her lutz and omitted the back of the combo, which was a mandatory .5 deduction under the 1992 scoring system. Still, her overall skating skills were much superior, her spins stronger. She starts with a higher technical base value so the .5 deduction wouldn't leave her technical mark that far behind Preston & Hubert and she should have a distinctly higher presentation mark than Hubert who didn't hold her positions at all and looked like what she was - a skater just up from juniors.
So, my ranking would have been
2-Lu Chen
3-Josee Chouinard
4-Nancy Kerrigan
5-Karen Preston
6-Tonya Harding
7-Laetitia Hubert

"If I agree well it's just to appease you 'cause I don't remember what were fighting for..." - Sarah McLachlan
She was 7th in the World in 1992, and won the silver at Skate Canada in 1992 ahead of Josee Chouinard and Tonya Harding (Harding at the time was the #2 U.S skater and a regular at World and Olympic events for them). Given the U.S women seemed to be going into a weak spell, her standing in the World at that point, and her youth, it would have made sense to think she could made the 98 Olympic team in the future at the time. Little did she know her own skating was going to fall way off rather than improve and master improve all the triples, and the U.S women were about to take off again with the Kwan steamroller leading the way.
Claeys in 92 and 93 btw was very easily beating someone like Tonia Kwiatkowski in international competition, someone who made the 96 and 98 World teams (and would have in 97 without a meltdown, and arguably should have in 95). Tonia is much older than Claeys. Yet Tonia got alot better after 92-93, while the much younger Claeys inexplicably got alot worse. There was no reason she shouldnt have thought at that point she could make future U.S teams though.
Claeys never had a triple lutz or flip, as far as I know. By 1993 it was starting to be important to have those jumps if one wanted top-10 finish at Worlds, and by 1995 it was pretty much required.
I happened to attend 1997 Upper Great Lakes, which she won with two pretty clean programs, I think 4 triples including a 3loop in the freeskate. Based on how Nationals went that year, I think if she had competed with the exact same performances as at UGL, she could have been 6th in each program and 7th overall. But apparently she didn't have a good day at sectionals that year and didn't make to Nashville.
Claeys did have a triple flip. I think she only competed it once or twice, though -- perhaps in 1993? I heard she had it back in 1999 or 2000, and she attempted triple toe - triple toe and a double flip (presumably meant to be a triple?) in the short program at Easterns.
I think it was gkelly who turned me on to her Coppelia LP. That is one of my all time fave programs! I especially love the sequence at the end with the 3 spread eagles into 2a.
Well Claeys was only a teenager in 92 and 93. I think it would have been assumed she could master the triple lutz at some point then, or atleast she probably thought that. As I said why would one assume that old Tonia Kwiatkowski could improve so much (she was a poorer skater than Claeys in 92 and 93, even if she sometimes landed a triple lutz) and young teenage Claeys could not. Had she done most of her performances from 1992 she would have finished 2nd at the 93 U.S Nationals. There was no reason for her to think at that point she couldnt be competitive at U.S Nationals in the future.
Harding wasn't anywhere in the short although it was a pretty good program for her. I would have had Sato higher if she didn't also bobble the flying sit. I agree that Hubert's elements were wild and unrefined but her speed gets some credit. Preston vs Chouinard is much closer than I think anyone thinks. Scratchy combo for both and all other elements very similar. Josee has more speed and personality but tech is the tie breaker in the short and Josee totally botched the 2 flip. I'd put Kerrigan as high as I am because the precision in everything she does is so appealing.
Yamaguchi, Chen, Preston, Chouinard, Kerrigan, Hubert, Sato
Nancy Kerrigan was grossly held up in this competition in both the SP and the LP. One of the worst displays of reputation judging ever!
I think one thing people need to remember about Kerrigan is back then she was considered by èxperts as a very artistic skater. Now it seems many are baffled by that (or even completely unaware) and just dont get it. Her skating definitely didnt stand the test of time that well. However that was the general perception at the time, and it is why she could get away with doing no more or less technically than her peers, and win many medals in the early 90s with mistake filled performances jump wise.
Yes, perception can count for a lot. I just watched Nancy's program. The thing about Nancy is that she was a "put together" skater. She was quite attractive (which no doubt helped her win a lot of "free" points), and she usually wore elegant costumes. In the SP here, I think the color of her dress was very effective. Even beyond all the trappings, she did have a rather smooth, mature style. But overall, she was pretty boring IMO. There wasn't anything really objectionable about her skating, but nothing truly remarkable about it either. When she was on, her performances were workmanlike; and when she wasn't...well, at least one could admire perhaps her hair and her dresses.
I think Tonya was actually a lot more musical than both Nancy and Kristi. Tonya wasn't that flexible, so her skating could be a bit jarring at times, but she more than made up for that in other ways--she just had power and bold movements that you rarely saw in female skaters. Whether you loved her or hated her, Tonya definitely wasn't boring.
Kerrigan was an ice princess w/ an image that the USFSA loved. So, I think this led to her heavy promotion by the USFSA over say, the technically talented yet troublesome Harding. Then, when you consider that the '89 - '92 quadrennial morphed into a competition among 3 Americans v. Midori Ito, who were all ranked way ahead of no. 5 onward ( ex - an earlier, even less refined Surya Bonaly, Josee Chouinard and Yuka Sato who both at the time I think couldn't do a jump harder than a 3loop, newcomer Chen Lu who at the time showed promised but didn't have cred or a federation with any real clout, a very very uneven no. 2 French gal - Laetitia Hubert, the disappearance of quality Soviet and GDR skaters during the quadrennial, Fassi pupils Jill Trenary and Joanne Conway disappearing from the ranks of elite skaters for various reasons, etc., ad nauseum).
I think all of the above led to Kerrigan getting medals by default with some pretty meh performances.
It was definitely a transitional period, with older skaters having trained when "well rounded" meant strong school figures and maybe three triples and the emerging contenders focused more on including a full set of triples. Also coherent music and choreography was starting to become more the norm.
In defense of judges who voted for Kerrigan, her lack of musicality and poor quality of movement were more than balanced out by her sound jumping technique and relatively 'packed' programs. She seemed to do lots of transitions and steps compared to other skaters who were attempting similar jumps.
If she ever hit, her technical difficultly would have been right at the top as soon as Ito and Yama left. I think Nancy got rewarded a bit for what she could do someday. She had a beautiful 3z and at some point starting showing the 3t3t.
"Puccini cries out for spirals, but really good ones." ~ Dick Button, 1998 Worlds
I think it was the "discovery" of a skater who was long, pretty, and somewhat elegant who could land 3Lz and 3T-3T and do them with power that got her elevated in the seeding system in 1991. She was a contrast with Ito and also Harding, which is what the judges found positive at that time. In subjective sports, no matter how much they pretend now to quantify, everything depends on context, and with that cast of characters and the judging emphases of that time on triple jumps, Nancy was surprising (not boring). You really know your history. Excellent post.
I don't know why JudgeJudy repeats all of this Nancy-bashing as if it has been written into scripture. Nancy was evidently lazy. She had so much talent--jumping and otherwise--but her programs looked like she was only partially prepared from 1991-1993. I don't think she did full run throughs enough. You can see in 1994 that she worked harder than ever and showed up ready for business. There were still moments in 1994 when she let some things drop that seemed unnecessary, and I think if you keep that in mind (that she was not the best skater mentally or discipline-wise) you will see that she had the potential to beat everyone in 1994.
She is a little like Gracie Gold in the sense that both were/are overblown because of the possession of athletic jumping without physically looking the part of the "athlete." Nancy at least attempted to be dramatic, which was effective with audiences.

Sorry to revive the dead horse, but mini display...
What the heck is going on? I seen the screen and what's the big deal about it? It's fine! The detail in the ipad mini screen equates to the display on a regular computer monitor. Oh my god!
Seriously? Is this what apple customers have come to? Are you seriously that picky, where if you see a pixel, you go on like a screaming red-in-the-face crybaby about it? My god. Ok so its not retina, but its regular! The way some of you guys clamor on about it.... ...you seriously need to take a look at your lives. Seriously, I feel bad for you guys. You are the guys that are bringing the Apple name down. Just a whiny, spoiled, generation of adult babies. My..God... |

Some people like it...some people don't. It seems like both sides are dismissive of people who have a differing opinion. But such is life these days.

Changed my mind
I got a white iPad mini, didn't like the display and returned it. Got a Nexus 7. Good display, but too small and Android. Got another mini, black this time, and found the display OK and sold my iPad 3. Anyway, I like the black one better and it also has AT&T. In the end, after experimenting a lot, I decided the weight and size of the Mini make it more usable than the big, heavy, clunky iPad. The screen isn't as good, but it's adequate. Not even sure if I will get an iPad mini retina when (and if) it appears if it's heavier. The size of the Mini is amazing -- it's even lighter than the Nexus 7. As for the speed of the Mini, I think since it has 1/4 the number of pixels of the iPad 3/4, it doesn't need as powerful a processor.

I have to confess that when I saw it at first I was pretty disappointed but once you get over the initial reaction it isn't that bad. I'm using a 3G Nexus 7 just now and the screen is definitely better. But the Mini has other strengths. So I have one on order.

Youre no better than all the other whiners on here. And while we are on topic, its not (just) the lack of retina or low pixel density that make the iPad Minis display undesirable to some, its the lack of color vibrancy, contrast and overall brightness - yet most threads just focus on 'retina'. For those with an eye for these things, it looks a bit dingy and blah. Thats all. Some people love it, some hate it, both opinions should be allowed without all the childish backlash.

Don't blame the people.. Apple taught us to except retina as the best. That's Apples doing not ours. I bought a mini. Didn't like the screen BUT that's NOT why I returned it. The keyboard was just to small for my personal needs/use. Still using my 3.

Totally agree with this one. Retina, though noticeable, is very subjective as far as far as acceptance VS loathing. But RAM on the other hand... I'm not enjoying the shortage of RAM.

I don't get it either. After reading all the complaints about the screen I almost felt bad for choosing the iPad mini, but I saw one in real life again today and I really can't tell the difference between that and the retina display. People should play with it and judge for themselves in case they're worried about the screen not being retina. Don't let all the bleeding eye posts keep you from trying it out.

With no other drawbacks, you can't expect us to believe that you would choose the current screen, which means you tolerate the current screen because of the other benefits. |

What a great thread OP!!! Thanks for sharing your joyful opinion!!!
I personally thought the iPad 4 was a better fit for my needs so I returned the Mini. The screen was a factor, but not the deciding factor. |

Astronomy Minor
The universe is a fascinating thing that can easily inspire awe. From a very early age, we learn about stars, planets and other phenomena and sometimes develop an interest that urges us to seek additional information and ask questions. Are we the only planet that supports life? What exists beyond our universe or galaxy? What is it like on Mars, or any other planet for that matter? Astronomy is a science that seeks to provide answers to these questions and many more.
The minor in astronomy is administered by the Department of Physics, which also offers a major in physics.

Dynamic Bodyuse for Effective, Strain-free Massage (9780954318895)
Publisher: Lotus Publishing
Binding: Paperback
How to apply pressure without straining your body or damaging your hands is one of the greatest challenges involved in massage.
The most significant cause of early retirement from the massage profession is the cumulative strains on the body developed in the course of performing massages. The growth of the profession in recent years has been accompanied by an increase in the number of work induced problems. Practitioners can strain their hands, particularly their thumbs, fingers and wrists, and also their shoulders and backs.
This book highlights aspects of massage that can lead to these problems and offers guidance for avoiding these. The focus is on how to use your body safely and effectively in massage sessions. This includes involving your whole body to generate the power and movement that supports your working hands, saving your hands by using them skilfully and conserving them by using other body areas such as your forearms and elbows whenever possible. This book is essential reading for anyone involved in massage, whether you are a student, a professional massage practitioner or teacher, sports massage therapist or aromatherapist.

Smittybilt XRC8 winch?
The wife just gave me the go ahead to get a winch for the flatty, There are 2 versions of this winch, the 1st generation and second generation. The first has a 4.1hp permanent magnet motor and the second gen has a 5.5 hp series wound, anyone know how to tell the difference in the 2 winches?
Or anyone know of another decent winch in the $300 range? I wanted a PTO winch on the flatty, or an old school warn, but it just isn't in the cards right now, and won't be for awhile, I figure when I upgrade this can be a rear winch for the YJ. The most use it will get is raising and lowering the snowblade |

"The Situation"
mine works but as said its SLOW.. and the controller SUCKS ! im on the 2nd one and its doing the same thing.. the rocker switch keeps sticking It got bumped in the cab and stuck in the spool out mode.. causing the entire spool of cable to get all fucked up !
if you're only using it to raise the blade buy a cheapo $50 atv 2k from HF ive got one on our car trailer and its pulled the s-10 u single line running off only a jump box |

Do you have the first or second gen winch? |

I think they are still giving crazy deals on T Max winches... for another $100 you might consider them... I went with a T-Max because it was 1/2 the price of a warn at "cost".
I need H2 wheels and tires, please. |

I have the Smitty series 1. It is slow, but has never stalled. I've never had an issue with the remote either. I've had about 4 or 5 easy recoveries and 3 or 4 hard pulls with it. No worries at all.
The 4.1hp motor is the 8K rated winch. The 5.5hp is 10K rated. the cheapest place I found was www.winchdepot.com

I have the 2nd gen XRC8, and I have had no problems. All winches are slow to me, plus I am never in a hurry when winching anyway.
