One of the first applications built to find and remove malware and spyware, Ad-Aware's reputation is well-justified. The latest version continues the publisher's tradition of adroitly addressing user concerns, but flaws remain.
Building on the improvements made in version 8, former Ad-Aware users should be glad to hear that the program installs faster than before. This version of Ad-Aware offers two new features to users of the free version that had previously been restricted to the paid upgrades: antivirus protection, and a long-awaited scheduler. The AV protection comes courtesy Sunbelt, makers of Vipre. Ad-Aware 8.3 loads faster … Read more

Accelerated Technology's Nucleus SNMP Upgrade Provides Improved Management of Networked Devices
MOBILE, Ala., May 31, 2005 - Accelerated Technology, a Mentor Graphics division (Nasdaq: MENT), today announced availability of version 2.3 of the Nucleus{reg} Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) software. The software allows networking developers to better monitor and manage remote network-attached devices by providing support for additional Management Information Bases (MIBs) which describe the monitored device, in addition to improving performance and reducing code size.
Tuned for applications where memory and CPU resources are limited, the Nucleus SNMP product is portable, permitting users to easily develop a new port to a non-standard environment. It is also modular, enabling easy customization and helping to reduce code size. Additionally, the Nucleus SNMP product helps lower the software's overall memory usage, in some cases by as much as 30 percent. The introduction of fast initialization technology helps reduce what has typically been a long boot-up time caused by SNMPv3 encryption key generation. This is especially important for low speed processors, for which it helps accelerate iterative debug sessions and produces a quicker power on cycle for the developers' final product.
With ever increasing security demands in the networking industry, the Nucleus SNMP software securely manages networks by providing capabilities including authentication, access control, privacy, message integrity and some aspects of replay protection. The Nucleus SNMP product now also supports the Nucleus Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) software along with IPv4 making it the ideal management solution for next-generation products built on IPv6 technology.
"The Simple Network Management Protocol is one of the most widely deployed management solutions in use today," said Robert Day, director of marketing, Embedded Systems Division, Mentor Graphics. "This revision of the Nucleus SNMP software strengthens our SNMP solution dramatically with improved performance, size and many advanced features. It will help reduce both time to market and cost to market for developers building SNMP-managed products."
The Nucleus SNMP software, combined with the Nucleus NET protocol stack, provides embedded developers with a complete, royalty-free SNMP solution. The Nucleus SNMP product is available in two packages: the Nucleus SNMP software with support for SNMPv1 and the Nucleus SNMPv3 software with support for all versions of SNMP i.e. SNMPv1, v2c and v3. Being an SNMP Agent, the Nucleus SNMP software allows remote monitoring and management for any type of device and provides a solid foundation for different types of MIBs. MIB-II and the SNMPv3 MIB are included by default.
Other Nucleus software products like the Nucleus 802.11 STA software, the Nucleus Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) product and the Nucleus Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) software come with their respective MIB implementation that plugs into the Nucleus SNMP software, thus extending the management capabilities of those products.
Pricing and Availability
The Nucleus embedded software is sold in source code format and without royalty fees. Licenses for the Nucleus SNMP software begin at U.S. $9,995 and licenses for the Nucleus SNMPv3 software begin at U.S. $19,995. For more information, please contact Accelerated Technology at 800-468-6853.

I like King of Joe brand coffee, their Espresso being my favorite, but the Dark Roast is also a good daily cuppa. I lean more towards the full bodied, dark roasts and this is definitely one of the better ones for the Tassimo.

Marine animal stings or bites refer to venomous or poisonous bites or stings from any form of sea life, including jellyfish.
Almost 2000 species of animals found in the ocean are either venomous or poisonous to humans, and many can produce severe illness or death. An estimated 40,000 to 50,000 bites or stings from marine creatures occur each year. In recent years, the number of injuries caused by these animals has increased dramatically because of the greater number of people who take part in scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing and water sports. These animals are not usually aggressive, and many are stuck to the ocean floor. Most venomous or poisonous marine animals in the United States are found along the California, Gulf of Mexico, and southern Atlantic coasts.
Stings - marine animals; Bites - marine animals
The majority of these types of bites or stings occur in salt water. Some types of marine stings or bites can be deadly.
Causes include bites or stings from various types of marine life, including: jellyfish , Portuguese Man-of-War, stingray , stonefish , scorpion fish , catfish, sea urchins, sea anemone, hydroid, coral, cone shell, sharks, barracudas, and moray or electric eels.
There may be pain, burning, swelling, redness, or bleeding near the area of the bite or sting. Other symptoms can affect the entire body, and may include:
Seek medical help (call 911 or your local emergency number) if the person has difficulty breathing, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, or uncontrolled bleeding; if the sting site develops swelling or discoloration, or for other body-wide (generalized) symptoms.

Family cooperation is a blast,
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
Forbidden Island is a fantastic family board game for a number of reasons: * 1 - it's a cooperative game. We love cooperative games in our family because we aren't competing against each other, but rather working together as a team to beat the game. And we love that more designers and publishers are creating more cooperative games to play. * 2 - it's easy to learn and simple to play. Take it from Caleb's video review. You simply set out the island tiles, draw your character card and follow the steps on the back of the card as to what to do on your turn. Pretty soon you won't need to look at the cards during the game, but it's great that the help is there if you need it. * 3 - the re-playability. Since the game isn't played on a set board, but rather by area tiles, every time you set up the island it gets set up differently. And with 6 characters that each have their unique special abilities, you only get to play with a team of 4. So each time you play, you'll also have to deal with the characters you get (and you'll long for the special abilities of one you're missing). And on top of all that, you're dealing with the luck of the draw in the card deck, so you don't know which tiles will start flooding, then sinking away. * 4 - it doesn't take a long time. The turns play really quickly and everyone is engaged the whole time and the island is always changing with tiles flooding, so there's a lot of discussion going on the whole game - which also makes it seem like it goes by fast. * 5 - it's fun! The first time we played it, we played over and over. Granted we kept losing so we had to keep trying again. But that's what made it so fun. We would get so close and then just miss the win. So we'd quickly set it all up again for more. Oh - and did I mention that Forbidden Island has fantastic artwork and great game components? We love the artwork and everything in the tin is high quality. The tiles are nice, thick and sturdy - which is a must because they will get flipped over a lot. And the treasure pieces are definitely treasures that you want to search out and get. The game components all help make it a fun game experience. If you typically just read these board game reviews rather than watch the video, we'd suggest you take a look at the video to see the quality you're going to get with Forbidden Island. You can read more about this and other great family board games on TheBoardGameFamily.

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
Plenty of people have done an admirable job of explaining the games in their reviews, so this is instead an attempt at a comparison between a number of games, the pros and cons of each and which may suit different people best. The games in question are: Carcassonne, Settlers of Catan, Castle Panic, Smallworld, and Forbidden Island.
We have had Settlers of Catan and Carcassonne (with a number of expansion packs) for quite a few years now, and only recently added the other games above. We usually either play just as two adults, or with our two older children (age 9 and 8), and so our conclusions are based on how these games work in those settings. So here's what we've found: Settlers of Catan We got this around the same time as Carcassonne and initially just didn't latch onto it. Partly it's that it's supposed to be 3 players or more, and we often play as just two of us. Once we found online some instructions for playing as 2 players it came out more often, and as time's gone by it's become fairly 50-50 whether we play Settlers or Carcassonne on a quiet night in. The choice will usually depend on how much we want to think. With Settlers, you're always planning and calculating; with Carcassonne, you're taking it a card at a time. Who should get it: Settlers is well-known as one of the great modern games. I'm not as sold on it as some people, and it takes quite a while to learn and feel comfortable with, but once you get the hang of it, it is an entertaining and enjoyable addition to a games collection. There are several 2-player rule variations out there if you need them and they work well (we found one that worked for us and we've stuck to it). But this isn't a game for kids; I would suspect not until they're 16 or so. Amongst other things, I think they'll find it too dull. Carcassonne This has been a favorite for years now, and everyone we've played it with has gone off to get it themselves. We usually play without farms because it then becomes less directly competitive and more sociable. Kids can play it, adults can play it, it's relaxed, it's fun and it's simple to learn. Here's one nice thing about it: you don't have to be constantly thinking and planning ahead. You don't know what card you're going to draw next time, so you just play one card at a time. You're encouraged to discuss where to put a card, and since you don't know what piece you're getting next, your comments to another player are usually pretty unbiased. Who should get it: In my experience, pretty much anyone, except those who want ultra-competitive games. The first few expansion packs are also well worth getting, but don't bother with anything from Mayor onward. Castle Panic The kids love this one, again it's simple to learn and it has the added bonus of allowing them to get out their aggressive instincts and go postal on monsters! They don't like the `master slayer' option, but prefer just straight cooperative play. After the first few plays, I've found the basic game is too easy, and so we're experimenting with making it more challenging, such as starting with no walls, or drawing 3 monster cards at a time instead of 2. I think Castle Panic will become a game that we get out pretty regularly to play. Who should get it: People with kids, who want to play cooperative games. Could be fun as a party game too! Smallworld While the kids have enjoyed playing this, I think their interest is starting to wane already. I suspect it will work better as a game with a group of adults, or when the kids are older. It has a lot going for it, especially the creative cards and board, but as others have noted - what's with the box for the tokens? Very poorly designed and adds unnecessary annoyance. Most of the time when playing we've found it's not too directly competitive, it's easier to attack lost tribes or declining races, so generally it doesn't get too personal! Who should get it: I think this would make a fun addition to a games collection, but I don't think it would be a go-to game, especially with kids. The rules are more complicated to learn and explain than the other games, and this makes it hard to just sit down with new players and get on with a game. Having said that, we've enjoyed playing it , and I think it'll get pulled out every now and then over the years. Forbidden Island Although the kids would prefer Castle Panic, when we've played Forbidden Island (at my insistence!) they've thoroughly enjoyed it. As the island starts to collapse in a heap toward the end of the game, the tension levels rise and people are on the edge of their seats! The game always ends with voices rising in pitch and tension as cards get turned over - it's fun! It's a pure cooperative game, and that works well for us as a family - no one feels bad, we're all in it together. We're still using the `Normal' level of play, maybe we'll notch up a level soon! Who should get it: If you like cooperative games, I think this is excellent to have. I love how easy it is to set different difficulty levels, and it's definitely the game that's had the most excited tension - Castle Panic has this at times, but not sustained (at least as the basic game). It doesn't have the whole monster thing going for it that Castle Panic does, and I think that's why the kids haven't latched onto it so quickly (kill trolls or wander round an island getting treasure - which is your average kid going to choose?) but I suspect that long-term it'll have more staying power.

= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
The following review for Forbidden Island was written by Kaelie, one of my 4th grade students. This is a Mensa Select Game and with good reason! We use it in our classroom all the time and it is easily one of their favorites! On to Kaelie's Review:
Forbidden Island is a wonderful game to play. I think a lot of people of many different ages would like it. In this game 2-4 people may play at the same time. There are four trophies that the players are trying to capture (My favorite trophies the Statue of The Wind, but there is also the Crystal of Fire, the Ocean Chalice, the Earth Stone. Each player has a specific role to play in the game. The Messenger may trade trophy cards with anyone in the game. The Explorer can move diagonally (other adventurers can just move up/down/left/right). The Diver can go in the water once a turn. The Navigator can move another person two tiles up. The Engineer two tiles up for one action. One of the really cool things about the game is that the board is made out of 28 tiles. You shuffle the tiles before each game and lay them out randomly (but in a specific shape). So, each time you play, the game board changes! The minute the game begins, the island starts flooding! Every turn, a player does up to 3 actions, takes a couple of treasure cards, and draws a couple of flood cards. Every flood card matches a tile on the game board. If the tile is in it's normal state, you flip it to flood it. If it is already flooded, you remove the tile from play and it is gone to the depths of the ocean floor. Without a doubt, the coolest thing about Forbidden Island is that you work as a team, trying to beat the island! It doesn't matter who collects the treasures because you are all trying to beat the island before it all sinks. Forbidden Island is a fun challenging game. Thank you for reading my review!

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
Easy to learn, fast paced, and beautifully illustrated. A good balance of luck and strategy.
I'm new to cooperative gaming so its a breath of fresh air to play a game where you're all working together instead of trying to beat each other. Definitely a great game for families. The 24 tiles that make up the "board" ensure that no two games will be alike, so there is a lot of re-playability. Also when you loose, which happens a fair amount (its challenging!), it definitely leaves you with a "lets play again!" attitude. Gameplay was about 30 min. The box and components were excellent quality and with a $14.99 price tag how can you go wrong? I highly recommend it!

= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
Bought this game due to high reviews and for its short duration. High quality pieces, low replay value for adults. I was in the market for Pandemic! or another adult level collaborative game, but wanted to teach the kids I babysit how to play collaborative games. I thought shorter would be better. It was fun a few times with adult friends & family, but we have pretty much nailed it. Will probably give the game to those kids- hopefully they will get more replay out of it!
Would recommend it for use with children. I could see this game being a hit in a junior high classroom during lunch or recess.

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
*designer: Matt Leacock
*publisher: Gamewright *date: 2010 *BoardGameGeek rank/rating: 2090/8.04 *age: 10+ *# of players: 2-4 *print status: in print Maybe it's because I started writing this review during the final few weeks of the TV series, LOST... but the whole "island full of crumbling ruins & ancient secrets" vibe resonates pretty strongly with me right now. But don't take my (admittedly gamer-oriented) word for it: listen to my (gamer-in-training) 8 year old son... or his non-gamer 8 year old friends... or my long-suffering wife (who games because she loves me!)... or even other actual gamers who've played the game. It's been a hit with everyone who has had the opportunity to play! Forbidden Island is a cooperative game for 2-4 players, though since the game is played with open hands, it works just fine as a solitaire game as well, with the player controlling two (or more) pawns. (Another odd Lost reference: this is definitely a "live together or die alone" kind of game.) Regardless of the number of players, it seems to clock in at right about a half hour of playing time. The color text of the game has the players on a search for elemental treasures (The Crystal of Fire, the Statue of the Wind, The Ocean's Chalice & the Earth Stone) created by an ancient civilization. Of course, it's not a simple archaeological expedition - the island is booby-trapped to begin sinking when anyone attempts to steal the treasures... and that's exactly what you're here to do. I could go into a detailed rules explanation... but that seems pretty pointless when a PDF of the rulebook is available online, thanks to the good folks at Gamewright. Simply put, you're using 3 actions per turn to move your piece across an island made of tiles, attempting to collect the treasures, shore up the sinking parts of the island, and generally survive long enough for all of you to grab the last helicopter off the island (is Frank Lapidus the pilot?). At the end of each turn, you draw cards to increase your hand (and potentially increase the rate of flooding) as well to sink more parts of the island. There are lots of ways to lose: *if the helicopter landing pad sinks, you lose *if one of your team doesn't survive, you lose *if you fail to recover all four treasures, you lose *if the island floods completely, you lose But it wouldn't be much of a cooperative game if you won all the time, right? So far, we're doing very well playing at the Novice setting, while we're about 50/50 at the Normal setting. I have yet to convince my son to try it at the more difficult settings. (BTW, a clever game feature - you only have to change the starting level of the water - indicated on a sliding scale - to change the difficulty of the game. No re-mixing the deck, no convoluted alternative set-up.) The components are high quality - nice cards, great chunky tiles with evocative "forbidden island" artwork that reminds me a bit of the computer game Myst, and nifty plastic "treasures" - all packaged in a cool-looking tin with a well-designed box insert. (For those of you non-gamers, the "well-designed insert" may not sound like a big deal, but I can tell you from experience that it makes it easier to transport & keep the game in top-notch condition... and that not all companies think this part through.) A side note: since the designer, Matt Leacock, is best known for his OTHER cooperative game, Pandemic, it's helpful to note that while the games share some mechanics (most notably the Infection/Waters Rise restacking of the decks & the various player roles that allow each person to "break" the rules in a particular way) but that the board play (due to the sinking tiles) and kid-friendly theme make for a very different game experience. Finally, the recommended age of 10 is correct - but only if the kids are going to be playing without any adults helping run the game. With a friendly adult, the game can easily be played by kids as young as 5. The cheap price point (the MSRP is only $15.99) means that Forbidden Island will be likely be one of the best kid gaming investments you're likely to make this year.

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
I really enjoyed this game and have played with my children (11, 9, and 7) as well as an adult gaming group. This game scales well between the two groups and everyone had a good time.
Components The game has excellent components. The game is very good looking and the designers have done a great job with the look and feel of the game. The cards are durable, the four treasures look good and you can tell that a lot of time and thought went into the design. The game comes in a small tin which looks nice but doesn't fit well into my game collection. Gameplay After a couple of plays you can finish a game in about 30 minutes. This makes the game a good choice if you have limited time or want to play a couple of different games on a game night. You and your friends play against the game and if you don't work together you will lose. Every time I've played, there has been a good sense of urgency that makes the game exciting. Pros: Theme Quality of Components Price - it's only [...]!! Light enough for new players, but still fun for experienced gamers Cons: Strategy Light - I'm not convinced the replay value is high. Increasing the difficulty level may fix this but I've only played on Novice level.

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
You and your fellow explorers race around an island to collect treasure. They're not racing each other, though: the island itself is sinking!
By the same creator as Pandemic, this less complex variant uses the same "your team versus the game" concept. Each turn you have a small number of actions you can do and a much larger number of problems that the game is throwing at you. Therefore only way to succeed is to cooperate with the team and think ahead. Plan your moves with your fellow explorers, shoring up sinking land tiles, collecting cards in order to unlock treasures, and keeping the routes open across the island. The Forbidden Island is tricky, however, and will start to sink faster and faster as you plunder its ancient riches. Great game to play with older kids (9 and up, IMHO), but this is not just a kids game. It teaches cooperation, planning, and accomplishing tasks in a logical order. The other plus is that, like its older brother Pandemic, you can increase the difficulty of the game as your group/family become more adept.

Fun, Simple Yet Challenging, & Different.,
= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
You work collectively towards 1 goal, against the game, not each other. Goal: Collect 4 pieces before the island sinks.
The rules are easy to follow and you can play this game repeatedly without it getting old or predictable because of the random selection and layout involved. Each player is assigned a role (IE, Diver, Navigator, Pilot, etc.) randomly, and you get up to 3 actions to do something per turn. Hint: Stay true to your role/position and be committed to using the special ability you get. Ultimately, you'll find yourself talking with the other players about what you plan to do on your turn with your actions, and as a group you will adjust your strategy as the gaming situation changes, which is every turn. We found ourselves saying, "Well, so much for the original plan" because we had to constantly adapt to changes. You will also find yourself holding your breath when cards are turned over that dictate the next change. You can also increase the difficulty level once you become familiar with the gaming concept. Most games are played in about 25 minutes (with mature players, not kids). I suggest playing this with casual gamers. Do not play this game with people who are stubborn or overly controlling because they will want to influence every play that every player makes, which will become really annoying & time consuming - unless you are equally head strong. Lastly, the art work is really nice, and it seems like the makers of the game are trying to capitalize off the hit TV series LOST (however, it is nothing like the LOST boardgame, which we also own). Knowing what I know now, would I buy it again? Definintely. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because it's not mind blowing, and it is hard to get 5 stars out of me for anything =)

This review is from: Forbidden Island (Toy)
I have played Pandemic, Castle Panic, and now Forbidden Island. Each one fills their own little niche for cooperative play.
Forbidden Island plays very similar to Pandemic in some respects, because it was designed by the creator of Pandemic (surprise surprise) Matt Leacock. It plays a little lighter than Pandemic, but it's still challenging! It's less fiddly than Pandemic, so it's a quick setup and go kind of game. The theme is a little more light-hearted, but just as tense. The board design is modular which makes for greater replay value, and I've seen variant setups that are available in the German edition. This makes for a better cooperative game with younger kids, and I think they'll like the them better. The component quality and artwork is absolutely top-notch! The price is incredible! If you're looking for something meatier, get Pandemic (and the expansion "On the Brink"). If you're looking for something more action-packed with hacking and slashing, get Castle Panic. If you're looking for a good quality cooperative game on the cheap, get Forbidden Island. |

This was after Mack left the room and he came storming back in and was irate. Apparently one of the players (a freshman) said quietly as Mack was leaving the room "no awards this f*cking week" (something to that effect) and it started an argument. There was a post earlier that mack was yelling at the players in the locker room after the game because of the loss. The truth is that some of the players got into it after he spoke to the team and it really pissed him off. The guy I spoke to said he's never seen Mack that upset."

5 Fantastic!Garysutton | 06/10/2011 | See all Garysutton's reviews (6)I have already got a pair of these from another well known site and saw them when I was browsing for something else so thought I would write a review for future buyers. These headphones are brilliant, I use them in the gym on the crosstrainer and treadmill, the sound is superb, just about right across all frequences and they don't fall out even though they are larger than most equivalent ones they sit tight. They are well built and the cord is adequate in length and is a bit thicker and better quality than most. I have owned sony, creative, sennheiser before these and didn't think jvc would make good headphones but they sure do. Value for money I don't think you could do much better than these! Highly recommended.
3 Ideal for gym/runningdanlo23 | 08/02/2012 | See all danlo23's reviews (1)First of all, for the VERY low price they offer a good bass response, smooth and deep, but these headphones are let down by the mids and highs, they are brash, loud and tinny and in some songs even overpower the strong basslines.Imagine a high grade Sub, matched with low-grade tweeters.Perfect for running or the gym where more expensive headphones are a no-no. Fairly rugged build too, but definitely not for the audiophiles.
5 StunnedGBreen | 16/06/2012 | See all GBreen's reviews (1)Was a little hesitant to buy what seem such cheap headphones as normally, you get what you pay for. They arrived today and as soon as I took them out of the packaging I knew these weren't just another cheap pair of headphones. The sound quality is fantastic, nice and bassy. The ear pieces that come already attached are very comfortable and you get different sizes with them as well just incase. You also get a little case with them too which is handy. Overall I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for replacements to the terrible iPod/Apple earphones, or any other for that matter! I've had rather expensive Sennheiser in the past and to be perfectly honest I prefer these already.
5 the best budget phones on the marketmoff26 | 13/02/2013 | See all moff26's reviews (3)i got my set through this morning, and they are fantastic! with Samsung ace phones you can barely hear a sound through most head phones, that is not the case with these ive had to turn the volume down. If you got loads of money to throw around obviously go for a hd set but I would recommend these over any other set that is under 50 pounds
5 REALLY GOOD IN EARS AT SUCH A CHEAP PRICE!IXFlames | 24/12/2011 | See all IXFlames's reviews (1)I've bought these JVC XX to replace my Philips SHE8000 because just after 1 DAY! the right side had a drop in volume and bass.These in-earphones are just absolutely FANTASTIC! It has a deep bass for all the bass lovers, there are no distortions when playing genres such as dubstep.The in-ear's are well built, thicker wires then others which hopefully can last as long! They fit nicely even though they are quite big but don't let that get you down on buying these. they don't fall out if you wear the right ear buds.I would recommend these in ears to anyone at such a good value.

10-inch Bamboo Steamer
healthy steamed fish is a snap!
Since coming to the GA from the west coast, we haven't had steamed fish--until we found a Carbon steel wok and this nifty bamboo steamer in Cost Plus and thought "HEY! We can do it ourselves".
How we used the product:
Just last night, we tried steaming a whole striped bass for the first time the bamboo steamer over an inch of water in a 14" wok.
Easy peasy prep: We stuffed the fish with thinly sliced ginger, green onions, and cilantro. A dab of olive oil on the skin, a few table spoons of light soy sauce, steam in high heat and 10 minutes later...we had a healthy delicious meal.
Things that were great:
The fish was fresh, soft, not overcooked, and fragrant. A + !!! Great steamer! Great products! Great customer servcice!

quote:We won because we just flat wore them out. You could tell they were very tired there at the end. Our conditioning really paid off. I think that's what caused the turnovers at the end.
quote:Nice win. Great comeback!! Seton Hall is probably a middle to lower third of the pack Big East team, so take from that what you will. Next test is can they win on the road? Marquette looks ok (but not nearly as good as last year's team) and Boise St. looks to be much better than expected. Should be interesting to watch this group moving forward

Charles Schwab: Housing recovery to boost economy
Sunday, January 6, 2013
The housing market is recovering from its collapse to such an extent that it will be one of the key drivers of the economy in 2013, and could add as much as 1 percentage point to growth, says Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab & Co. Inc.
A: The economy has a couple of very important pockets of strength heading into the New Year. Housing is probably dominant among them, which I think really starts to feed into job growth and continues to feed into consumer confidence. Domestic energy obviously is a big story. The renewed competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing is a big story. So, all of those, I think start to support the economy and serve as pretty decent offsets to whatever the hit is from the "fiscal cliff."
Let's assume it's not a total "can-kick," because that would mean that we're going to be talking about this and figuring out time frames and deadlines well into 2013, which I think would be a big problem. So, let's assume we get some sort of a definitive deal so that we get some resolution, whether it's a grand bargain -- which is admittedly unlikely -- or a partial "can-kick," via some actual guidelines as to what's going to happen. Then we can get back to the business of analyzing fundamentals.
My concern is about their eventual exit strategy, if, and when, inflation expectations do start to rise. |

Privacy was the primary objective for this weekend retreat. A quarter-mile from Lake Michigan's bustling southern shore—and only an hour from Chicago—it occupies a blissfully quiet meadow surrounded by woodland. Architect Brad Lynch heightened the sense of remove with a building that hides its lamp under—or perhaps behind—a bushel.
As one approaches, Lynch notes, "It seems almost like a hidden agricultural building." A red cedar screen shelters the entry elevation, yielding only at the front door. Inside, a linear entry hall joins two barlike forms, one containing bedrooms and the other a kitchen/dining/living space that extends into a large screen porch.
By locating the fireplace in the entry hall, Lynch freed sight lines in the living space. Upon entering the latter, he reports, "Bang! All you see is the forest and greenery and nature."
Our judges summed up their view in a single word: "Sweet."

What are Google's biggest ranking factors?
Majority of website administrators are constantly updating their sites to ensure that they are constantly displayed on the first page of search engines such as Google. This regular activity can be exhausting even when done by a seo company, as the ranking factors set up by Google are frequently being changed for the benefit of online users. According to Google, there are at least two hundred ranking signals within their algorithm which they use to rank websites as well as pages. It is therefore important for businesses that rely on search engine optimization as part of their online marketing to have a better understanding of these ranking factors.
In most cases, working with a seo company to maintain as well as update the site, makes it much easier to adhere to the rules put up by Google and still get high rankings on the site. Professionals in seo are able to make appropriate changes according to the ranking factors thus lifting off the burden from business owners. Although it is important to have an idea of all the ranking factors used by Google, there are some that are considered to be crucial if a company is maintain or even increase its rankings on the search engine. Some of these biggest ranking factors that affect search engine optimization are:
- Page-level factors
The content displayed on the website plays a big role in successful seo and plays an important role in its ranking. Google prefers longer articles with relevant information and keywords as opposed to superficial articles. The use of target keywords is important both within the content and title pages as well. When ranking pages, Google relies on the title tag displayed to have an idea of the topic on the page, thus making it important to have a keyword as part of the title so that it can be ranked higher.
- Back link factors
Link building is an important factor when building a website because Google uses the links to determine the level of ranking that will be assigned to a site. The back links used should be of high quality and should quickly direct people to the site. Furthermore, the number of back links that direct online users to the website contributes a lot to its ranking, meaning that they should be quite a number for ranking on the search engine to be higher.
- Social signal factors
Regular sharing of content from the site through a wide variety of social networks increases its overall authority resulting in better search visibility for its pages. If the Facebook or twitter accounts that are sharing the content are popular then it carries more weight with Google. Therefore, it is crucial for online users to share the content as Google pays attention to the social signals, whether through Google plus, Facebook and even twitter.
Overall, becoming familiar with these Google ranking factors is a good start towards improving seo on your site, whether you are working with a seo company or not.

Distribute a Press Release to Enhance Your PR
Has it been a while since you distributed a press release? Sending a press release in 2014 can still be a great idea. It can enhance your profile and help your PR, also, it can drive traffic to your website and it even help with your SEO. Google takes a dim view of over optimized anchor text in press releases so be careful to only use branded and URL based keywords and you'll be fine. Google has this to say about links in press releases "Links with optimized anchor text in articles or press releases distributed on other sites. For example: There are many wedding rings on the market. If you want to have a wedding, you will have to pick the best ring. You will also need to buy flowers and a wedding dress."
Some great places to distribute your press releases are:
There are also some great free and low cost press release distribution services still available on Fiverr etc. Whatever you do make sure you write an engaging and newsworthy press release or get a good SEO like Scot Crone to do it for you that you can expect to be picked up by a journalist somewhere to drive your PR efforts to the next level.

How To Clean Up Your Facebook News Feed
Have you ever logged into Facebook to see what your friends and family are up to and find yourself saying "Who are all these people?" Sometimes you want to see what your friends did on their vacation last week, but you may not want to see what that strange classmate's cat is up to. Facebook has a filter to help clean up your news feed and remove unwanted posts! The acquaintance filter lets you separate your "close friends" from the rest of the people on your friends list. By changing this setting you can filter out all the unwanted posts. Have an ex who keeps posting pictures of them and their new boyfriend or girlfriend? Simply filter their posts out using this filter and get on with your life!
Here are the steps to setting up the new filter:
1.Next to the header for the "Friends" section in the left sidebar, click "More" (HINT: You may have to first click a "More" button at the bottom of the sidebar to find this section.)
2. Click the Acquaintances List.
3. In the right sidebar you'll see a box of "List Suggestions." Click "see all" at the bottom of that
5. You're presented with a grid of faces of friends with whom you haven't interacted much lately. Uncheck any that you want to keep as "Close Friends."
6. Click "Add to Acquaintances."
By adding these people as "acquaintances" their content and posts wont show up on your news feed as much.

Never Take The Easy Way Out When Trying To Accumulate Twitter Followers
Twitter is one of the most popular social networks on the web today. You can gain a lot from Twitter when using the right strategy. Having a significant amount of followers does matter if you want to see your business grow through Twitter.
Grabbing people's attention online can be difficult since there are so many social networks and campaigns out there. No matter how hard it may seem, never try to take the easy way out. If you try and attract fans the wrong way, it could severely damage the image of your company.
If you have completely given up on bringing in followers the natural way, never let the idea of buying followers come to mind. This is one of the worst ways to add followers to your Twitter page. These purchased fans are not real and won't bring anything beneficial to your page. You really aren't fooling anyone by doing this. Fans and other people will notice that you're buying fans and this will make your business look desperate. This can cause you some reputation management problems for which you'll have to get a reputation manager to help you sort out and you're wasting your money by doing this because you could potentially lose some of the real followers you already have.
If purchasing followers wasn't bad enough, some people are using a new, useless strategy to gain followers. Following a bunch of people just to receive a follow back then unfollowing them is not the route you want to take when trying to gain fans. If you think that the people you once followed won't notice that you unfollowed them, you're wrong. Almost everyone, even if it's just a personal page, keeps track of the amount of followers they have. It may seem like a great way to trick people into following you but they will unfollow you just as quick as they followed. Never use this strategy unless you want to lose some of your credibility and loyal fans.
Once you do start gaining followers, it's always best to stay humble. Don't let the amount of followers you have, get to your head. Never get cocky and remember that you once started off with nothing. If you start to lose your interactions and engagement with your audience you can easily lose all of your followers. Always keep you page updated no matter how much of a fan base you have. The bigger the fan base, the more you should be posting.
If you use Twitter the right way, you can gain tons of fans for your business. You always want to have real, loyal people following you. Don't let the stress of needing the most followers bring you to using these desperate strategies.

Having A Great Social Media Strategy Will Bring Success
Marketing with social media has become one of the most popular ways to get your brand known today. More and more companies join social networks everyday hoping that new clients will arise. No matter how much hard work you put into your social media campaign, sometimes you won't see any results.
This happens when a business doesn't know when or what to post. If the information you arr putting out is repetitive and boring, you'll notice that no one is interested in what you're offering. The amount of time you spend on each page daily and the type of information that you're giving out does matter if you are looking for success.
It's hard to figure out how much effort should be put into each social media network but it is mandatory that you know. If no one is paying attention to some of your posts, why are they even being published? Followers and fans log into their social pages to read new and interesting information that will benefit them in someway. Take the time to find news that others want to read about other than always posting about your business.
It may seem like common sense but you should always know who your audience is. Not knowing who's reading your posts makes it hard to know what exactly to post about. You could be posting information that is useless to your fans. This will lead potential clients to leave your page and have no reason to come back. You always need to know who your target audience is and what they want to hear. This will make your life so much easier when updating your social media pages.
The amount of time that needs to be spent on each page is different for every business. Don't spend all your time posting about endless offers or boring information about what your services are. If you are working with a small business, take about an hour to update all of your pages daily.
If you own a big company you should spend more time online. Take two hours out of each day to interact and engage with fans. Fans and potential clients will get thrown off if they always see a post asking them to buy something. Use your time wisely and post about topics that your audience wants to read about.
Every company is going to have a different way of working but they all should take these tips into consideration for their social media strategy. It's very easy to get overwhelmed when working with social media but when it's done correctly, you'll see nothing but success for your brand.

Chrome Vs Safari
If you work online everyday, the browser that you choose to use can be a very important decision. Each browser has something different to offer. You rarely ever see anyone using Internet Explorer anymore because it is so out dated. These days, people want a browser that can provide the most while working online. Google chrome is one of the most popular browsers used today and others are trying to catch up.
Google Chrome offers so much to users online. One of its best capabilities is their omnibox. This feature lets you enter a search query into the address bar which then will send you directly to Google results. It may seem like such a simple feature but many people really appreciate this.
It didn't take much time for other browsers to catch on to this awesome feature. IE, Opera and Firefox soon added a similar feature to theirs. These weren't the only companies that decided to jack Google's technique. Soon after every other browser decided that this feature was best for them too, Apple made an important announcement:
"Now there's one simple field for both search terms and web addresses. When you enter a web address, Safari takes you right to the web page — and even fills in the entire URL. Safari finds what you're looking for in a faster and smarter way. As you type in the field, Safari stays one step ahead and suggests a Top Hit — the closest match to what you're looking for. Safari uses pages from your bookmarks and history to find a Top Hit, so you find the right web page fast."
Apple called this new element SmartSearch. It doesn't instantly take you to Google but it gets the search job done. Tons of people use Safari on their smartphone and are used to it. This could possibly interest Google Chrome users into browsing with Safari.
Safari isn't just changing the way their address bar works, it has added tons of other new features. Its performance is faster, scrolling is smoother, a new share button has been installed and much more. All of these upgrades could lead to taking the number one spot of being the best browser

Finding the Perfect Social Media Team Is Easy When You Know Where to Look
Owning a business comes with a lot of responsibility. You have to get the name of your brand out there for people to see and hear about it. Social media is the new way of connecting with potential clients and if you are not online, you're truly missing out. If you own a business, having accounts with multiple social media networks is a must. Even if you think there is not enough time to manage these pages, you can always hire a social media team for help. Finding a social media team that will benefit you can be a difficult process. Not everyone knows where to look when searching for a social media team.
The first option that should come to mind is, of course, GOOGLE IT! You use this network to search for everything else, why not use it for finding the best social media team. All of the most professional teams will be on the first page of your Google results which makes finding the best team easy. Just because they are on the first page doesn't mean that they are the perfect match for you though. Actually take the time to thoroughly look through the results so you don't waste time learning about a team you can't afford or work with. It's also important to speak with them on the phone and ask key questions to see what they can do and their personalities.
Don't waste any more time looking in the wrong places for the perfect social media team. Networking with other relevant businesses is a must if your own your own company. Go ahead and ask other business owners where they went to find their social media help. It is very possible that other companies will point you in the right direction.
Facebook is great network to search through for help. When searching through Facebook you will find tons of great social media teams. Some may not be what you're looking for but many quality marketing teams operate through Facebook. Sort through the most professional teams and business pages to get a better view of who might be best for your company.
There are many different ways to find the right social media team for your company. Social media is something that has to be included with almost any marketing campaign today. You have to take the time to actually learn about each team you find online and think about how they will benefit your business. It may seem stressful and time consuming but it will pay off in the end.

Key Reasons Why an SEO Consultation is Needed Before Redesigning a Website
Understanding how SEO works is crucial if redesigning your website to not lose your current rankings and organic search. Once it's done, it's done. If you do not have someone on your team that knows how this works, it is extremely necessary to know how to do this right. One way is to do hours of research and trust that you or team members will do this correct or another way is to find a trustworthy source or SEO marketing agency that knows how the two work together and do this for their own website. Below are some "Key" reasons…
Key Reasons Why Needing a Specialist or Trustworthy help:
* Need to know how to let Google know if the website URL changes. If you don't, SEO rankings will fall. All of the time that the domain URL has logged to build up the site would be lost and may have to start over again with the new URL.
* Performing an inbound link analysis. Inbound links are extremely powerful and losing these links will cause your site to lose the authority it does have. Find what pages are linking to your site and where they are linking. Then let your developers know so that they can make the right changes.
* 301 Redirect. This is absolutely critical to have your pages with a 301 redirect to the new pages and will safely pass PageRank and your site will be able to maintain search equity.
* Have an SEO audit completed. What's the loss in doing this? It's extra eyes on your site to make sure that you don't miss anything. An SEO will also be able to share little tweaks and changes to help maximize your site.
There are quite a few more essentials to make sure to do this right in making the redesign of your website compatible with your Google and search engine rankings.

The two were old friends that grew up together in a little village deep in the frigid forest. They traveledtowards The Red Forest which was not only beautiful, but also said to be over 50 kilo-blocks long and wide! The Red Forest was named after the bright red apples that fell in abundance. It was a place that people from all over dreamed to see. Many people have created settlements in the forest, but none were as well known as Spawn.

5 A film which all the family and video game fans will enjoy!!dragonlord | 23/05/2013 | See all dragonlord's reviews (442)Top 10 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer Number 1 Games Reviewer Top 10 Music Reviewer Top 100 Books Reviewer Top 100 Clothing Reviewer The character Wreck-It Ralph is a lovable one. He has spent 30 years being the bad guy and now for once in his life he wants to be the good guy. So he jumps into other arcade games, which are all linked to the same network in search of a medal. There are many classic video game characters to look out for such as Pacman, Ryu, Sonic and Bowser. There are some cool game references for all us video game nerds, to enjoy on his fun journey. The animation is very good and the story has a great heart, with some laugh out loud moments. The only thing that disappointed me slightly is that Ralph and friends didn't get to explore more arcade games. All you gamers may like to know that Wreck-It Ralph is a playable kart racer, in the excellent racing game Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed: Limited Edition on the Wii U. Anyway my seven year old daughter and myself give this film the big thumbs up and remember don't go turbo ;-)
5 Awesomeawesomecity | 14/05/2013 | See all awesomecity's reviews (987)A very clever and entertaining movie, I think I enjoyed it more than my daughter as I can remember the dawn of gaming! A beautiful and visually stunning film, a must have blu ray and a joy for all the family.

Performance golf ball fitting focuses on finding the best ball for your game and lowering your score.
Titleist offers the most precise club fitting experience in the game.
Need to customize headwear, gloves, bags, or golf balls?
Track your stats. Get video tips. Set goals for your golf game.
I really like them and use them.
They're Grrrrreeeeeaaaat! When I find one, I can tell if it's a new one LOL
The arrows don't really matter for me since I always draw a line from the tip of the arrow all the way around on my ball anyway to aim/line up putts.
I used the limited edition Pro V1s in a tournament on Saturday and found the new alignment arrows less obtrusive than the former black ones. I do use them to align my putts, and they were fine. Of course my putting was atrocious on Saturday, but that had nothing to do with the new alignment lines.
I mark over mine with a sharpie but custom color options would would be nice.
I agree that the arrows need to be longer too if color options were available.
Chris S
I too would like it if we could "customize" the A.I.M. sidestamp (color, length, and width). I use a red sharpie and make mine a touch longer and wider.
Think they are great, more color options would be good
Have you tried the new special edition Pro v1's? They have a pink line, and number. I found them easier to look at than last years black line, however I do like the silver line on this years ball.
Count me in as a fan. I use them to align on the tee box, but not on the green, so the slightly more subtle arrows are better for me.

Rocky Patel The Edge Lite Torpedo Reviews [view details]
Give us YOUR review!Showing 1 through 10 of 12 reviews
"Great... if you let it sit for a few months"
I purchased this 5 pack and the first one I smoked was rough. It was allot more bitter then I remembered it from my first edge lite long ago. SO, I left the other four in the humidor for about 3 months with the cellophane off and I tried another just last night and WOW what a difference! It was smooth, light, and leathery. If you not a fan of bitter smokes, I recommend to anyone to let them sit unwrapped in their humidor for at least 3 months before smoking. Trust me...
Tom R in New Mexico February 11, 2011
Long burn, as the previous reviewer noted, but only average taste. The Edge Lite is mild, to be sure, but too mild -- I really couldn't taste any distinguishing flavor or body behind an otherwise flat tobacco taste.
Ben in MA July 22, 2010
"not the 93 I thought I'd purchased"
Based on the reviews of other customers, I expected this cigar to be a great smoke. Lit it up and just wasn't nearly as pleased. Bad taste, poor construction and veins all over the wrapper. Yet it had great burn and great consistency. I think maybe I just had a bad stick.
Ty in Central California March 8, 2010
"All time favorite!"
This cigar and the others in the "The Edge Lite" line are my current favorite. They can't be beat for flavor, draw or aroma. They stay lit forever! Whoever says they don't like them or says they are a "sissy smoke" either has no taste buds or is just plain wrong.
Jim B. in Surprise, AZ February 18, 2009
"Medium Bodied Goodness"
Right out the box, The Edge Lite Torpedo is good to light. The draw was very easy and the aroma is wonderful. Strong ash past the halfway mark and the taste was smooth. Great Smoke, they will develop with a couple of months of rest in my box. Thanks Famous keep these boxes of 20 in stock.
Edward in NJ November 14, 2008
"Lite on taste early fills out late"
As a Canuck, I am able to compare cigars from every country, and this one reminds me quite a bit of the H. Upmann Caronas Major. The flavor is very lite, I believe it was the slightly loose roll that contributed to that. If it was rolled a bit tighter then I think they would have a better smooth taste to these. The flavor fills out at the 80% mark though to start pulling leathery cream into larger amounts of mouth-watering mild strength smoke. It is about an hour for the robusto size. Draw was well, for light roll, as well as burn (straight and no relight). If you are new to cigars and want to start somewhere, these are a good place, a little pricy though.
Adam Z in Edmonton, AB, Canada June 11, 2008
"Truely great Smoke"
A great anytime of day smoke. construction is not the best but the smokes never a let down..
Brendan B in Boston February 6, 2008
"Going to get my 3rd box soon"
These are great mild cigars! Great taste and easy smoking cigars. The previous reviewer indicated bitter and I can understand. When smoking them fast they can turn bitter about 50% of the way down. Take it slow on the finish and they smoke great all they way to the nub. I was so impressed with the 1st box, I bought a 2nd and let it sit for 3-4 months while I smoked lots else. I neglected to remove the plastic padding in this 2nd box which gave the 1st 2 sticks a real bad flavor. Once from the box to the humi for a month, all was well again. Great smokes! Check the box for padding. The boxes/packing are real cheap -- who cares?! -- The sticks are fabulous!
Jim Buckley in Plymouth, MA November 24, 2007
Leaves a bitter after taste but has a great aroma, is the trade off worth it.... not for me and not for that price.
The Factor in beaverton oregon June 20, 2007
"Fantastic smoke, smooth yet bold!"
This is a must smoke. I have tried many cigars over the last 15 years and this is a top 5! A smooth draw, clean, flavorful taste.
Greg Rugani in OH May 3, 2007
