Replacing the board 3 times in 10 years is unacceptable

"So far...Great!"
We installed a new g61mpv36c-090 this year and so far it has been fabulous. Compared with the old furnace it's extremely quiet and uses half of the fuel. We really like the new thermostat as well which is much easier to program than the old one.

"Lennox 12 year models are junk!!"
Bought my house w/a Lennox WhisperHeat 1 stage Lennox model. It also came w/a 10 seer - 3 ton- r-22 coolant air conditioner unit. Within 5 years of living in the house, the air conditioner sprung a "hairline" leak that the tech can't find - likely on the condenser itself. Had the furnace checked & cleaned to find the "Heat Exchanger" needs replacing ($1,000+ part) that still has 8 years on the heat exchange warranty but doesn't cover the quoted $400 labor charge. Economical bottom line - I need to replace the whole system. HVAC contractors coming out for quotes tell me the Lennox "Whisperheat" was a lousy model for heat exchangers and the air conditioner unit was the 'builders low end model'. In a nutshell - buyer beware of buying a house thinking all's well for at least 10 years. This house has been one major repair after another and this HVAC system replacement is a double-whammy!

"lennox (lemon)"
Very unhappy with new Lennox furnace. Bought their best, high efficiency in 2004/'05. It blew its original fan at approx 20 months of age. Has now blown the second fan (last night) at approx another 20 months, Sept 8 '08. We let fan run 24/7 for air circulation, & are scrupulous about cleaning air filters every 2-3 weeks. Buyer beware!

"Too Bad People Cant Trust Their Installers"
I'm in the middle of a large renovation and am installing a g71 unit in my home. Old unit is Carrier but not overly happy with it. Possibly some of the issues are from not having the best installer. But my biggest rant is all you people who are suckered by bad maintenance companies!!! Then you slag the equipment!!! Doesn't take much time to investigate a problem on the web before someone feeds you a huge line of p__p. Wish everyone paid attention in school. Be a lot less people getting away with emptying your wallet with a ton of bs. These units, are awesome and will work for years if you find someone to service it that can be trusted!!!

"Pulse 21"
The Pulse 21 was/is the most efficient furnace ever produced. It has a 96.2% AFUE rating. The only problem I had was a failing control board this year which was replaced free of charge with my annual maintenance plan. I will be really sad to see this furnace go because whatever furnace I decide to purchase next will increase the payment due amount on my gas bill.

I own a Lennox g61mpv furnace. Best on the market, unbelievably quiet, cut energy cost in half. Absolutely best you can buy!! Go Lennox
Location: Alberta, Canada
Years owned: 3
Satisfaction Rating:
"Loved it"
I got the g60v two stage variable speed installed in September of '05. after almost 3 years of ownership, it hasn't given a lick of trouble, and the two stage provides great heat when it is really cold outside (- 40c), running long periods on first stage with long even heat cycles. It would occasionally hit stage two, but once the inside temp hit the differential, it would drop back down to first stage. I only wish I got the g61v, 90+ efficiency with the way gas prices are heading.

"Take ownership for over 10 +"
Brought old house with 10+ Years lennox Heat and ac unit. Had house for another 10+ years. Never had a service call or a part replaced. Unit was about ten years old when I brought house. But just last week the blower motor was making some noise. A few drop of oil silence that quickly. : ) I would recommend the furnace to others.

"14 years of great service"
We loved our Lennox unit we had it installed in 94 other than the usual yearly check we never had a problem with it however earlier this year she finally went down the compressor burnt up, .it had cooled like a dream, it was quiet, and even for how old it was our electric bill was never high. we had several companies come out and they all said it would be better to get a new unit so we did, replaced it with a Goodman, big mistake it will be replaced next year with a better brand

Family Wants Answers After Dog Attacks Toddler
By: Jocelyn Tovar, KARK 4 News
Updated: January 28, 2013
His parents tell us they think law enforcement needs to do more.
"He had blood all down his face and it immediately scared her," said Brandee Butler whose two-year-old daughter Chloe was with her two-and-a half-year-old son Brayden when he was attacked by a dog Friday afternoon.
The two played in their front yard when a neighbor's Labrador Retriever came over, like it had so many other times without any incident, but this time was different.
"Turned my back for two seconds and when I turned around he was on top of him," said Butler.
The children's mother said the dog was allowed to go back to its owners, her neighbors, and that officers only said they "lived down the street".
"If my kids can't even be safe in their own yard," said Butler. "Then there's a problem."
Brayden was rushed to a nearby medical center where it took ten stitches to close the puncture wounds on his face.
Despite his injuries, the toddler is in high spirits and his mother said it's difficult to look at his sweet face.
"It's like heart break," Butler said. "And I'm furious at the same time."
Now that the family has processed the terrifying ordeal, Brayden's parents question how the case is being handled.
London police have been unavailable for comment, to both them, and the media .
"At least I should be notified whether he has rabies," said Butler, "Or if he's [the dog] being treated or not."
The Butler's said they'll be getting more involved in the upcoming days and will look into the possibility of changing their small towns leash laws.
Neighbors told KARK this was not the first violent outburst from this dog.
We'll continue to follow any new developments.

Despite these complaints, Rayburn said Hostess would not engage in further negotiations.
The new contract cuts salaries across the company by 8% in the first year of the five-year agreement. Salaries then bump up 3% in the next three years and 1% in the final year.
Hostess has also reduced its pension obligations and its contribution to the employees' health care plan. In exchange, the company offered concessions including a 25% equity stake for workers and the inclusion of two union representatives on an eight-member board of directors.

About Me Midrange Shopper
I work from home for part of the day and this is a perfect setup. I can set it up and feel like I am in a "real" computer workspace - not just at a kitchen table or some other uncomfortable working spot. The higher shelf is great to put my laptop on for better screen viewing and then my keyboard is on the lower shelf - much more ergonomic than many of the other options out there or when I was trying to work at my kitchen table – at the end of the day I was too sore to move my shoulder! When my work day is over and I want my "home space" back – this desk is very easy to fold up and it stores flat in a corner of my dining room. It is out of my way when I need it to be yet highly functional despite its easy mobility. I highly recommend this for anyone that needs either a "temporary" workstation – part of the day or a few days – or even for a small space for a dorm, small office or kid's room!

AWESOME Computer Desk!
By Karen W.
from Westfield, MA.
I just received this desk yesterday, opened the box, screwed in 2 caster wheels, popped the desk open, and was good to go! Great quality, well-designed, and perfect fit for the small area I put it in, and despite it's small size, the desk itself provides ample room to work on it without feeling cramped. I am using it for my laptop, and I have a small printer set up on the bottom shelf. I wanted something sturdy, that could be moved if I needed to make room, and that required no assembly--this item fit the bill on all counts. Love it and love Staples! I will likely be buying another one for my daughter who has just started college.

from Home - Queens, NY
This desk sits in my main living area of my house because I work from Home - 5 days a week! Yet, when I have a party several times during the year, I need the space to be free of computer equipment - yet storage space is limited - this desk does it for me! It's sturdy, fully assembled and folds easily when I need the extra space - Love it!

Phoenix Coyotes not rewarded with national TV schedule
By: Arizona Sports
Originally published: Jan 13, 2013 - 12:10 pm
Originally published: Jan 13, 2013 - 12:10 pm
Coming off their best season since coming to the Valley in 1996, the Phoenix Coyotes were more than deserving of getting some extra national exposure when the 2013 schedule was unveiled Saturday night.
While the 48-game slate certainly hampered those hopes a bit, NBC and the NBC Sports Network didn't do the Pacific Division champions any favors, either.
The Coyotes won't be shown on NBC this season and will make just three appearances on the NBC Sports Network shown below:
January 20 - vs. Blackhawks (NBCSN)
April 22 - @ Red Wings (NBCSN)
April 27 - @ Ducks (NBCSN)
In comparison, Phoenix made four appearances on the NBC Sports Network during the 2011-12 season. Dave Tippett and Co. will also make two addition appearances (Feb. 9 at Sharks and April 4 vs. Red Wings) on the NHL Network.

Players in the locker room were gathered around the TV watching in astonishment as Alejandro Falla...the 65 th ranked player in the world had Roger Federer on the ropes in the first round match at the All-England Club. Falla had won the first two sets against the 6 time Wimbledon champ but in an example of what seperates champions from mere mortals...Federer clawed his way back to win in five sets. This has to give the rest of the players hope that if Federer needed five sets in what should have been an easy opening match...they have a chance going forward for the Wimbledon fortnight. Federer said he didn't feel the greatest but some how got the job done and that's all that matters. He's right...they don't give style points in tennis...and you can't advance until you win three sets.
The lightning and rain caused the Woodchuck-Rafters game to be halted in the 4th inning last night. They will resume tonight before the regulary scheduled game.

Trains & Letters
CD (Item 587042) Ricky Tick (Finland), 2011 — Condition: New Copy
A brilliant set from Finnish arranger Kerkko Koskinen – one with loads of deep jazzy textures, and a feel that's almost like some lost European soundtrack of the late 50s! The arrangements are tight, but never overwhelming – so that the ensemble's soloists have plenty of room to stretch out in creative patterns of their own – mixing in some great modern jazz modes that really deepen the feeling of the whole record – with elements that remind us of the best Swedish or French jazz experiments of the 50s! Players include Jukka Eskola on trumpet, Timo Lassy on tenor and flute, and Kerkko Koskinen himself on cembalo – and the record's got some especially evocative vibes from Penu Savolainen, who handles his instrument with these sharp chromatic tones that are mighty nice. Titles include "Day Train", "The Answer", "Night Train", "Calling Mrs Aagaard", "Taipan March", and "Modern Single Man". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

The bike repair co-op experienced a burglary this week, but they've said police involvement is "at odds with our established points of unity."
The Community Spoke! bike shop experienced a burglary this past week forcing them to close. Though the organization has made efforts to tell the public via their blog and social media channels, they say they do not want police assistance in locating the missing items.
"We feel that the police will interfere with our mission to provide a free and important service to those who decide to use it," says a post on the co-op's website. "To us this is more important than recovering our stolen property or "bringing those responsible to justice."
Here's more from the post:
"What service can the police provide? Do we actually want the police to target, question, and harass the youth of color of Jamaica Plain on behalf of the Spoke? Would that really help us build a community? Is punishing the people responsible what we want? Is TCS! still a safer space if there is a police presence? Questions like these must be asked when dealing with an event where a crime has been committed. It is, of course, a visceral reaction to call the police, but this could have dire consequences for the folks we serve. We've been taught to think that someone who chooses not to deal with the police is guilty of a crime or is hiding something. We need to shed this kind of thinking and understand that communities belong to the people that exist within them. We do not want to fracture the relationships we've built through suspicion, aggression, racism, and all the other things the police stand for. The concept of true justice extends far beyond the realm of law."
Representatives of The Community Spoke! emailed Jamaica Plain Patch noting they would like the incident to be referred to as a "burglary" as opposed to a "robbery."
9:25 am on Friday, November 16, 2012
What a beautiful example of local self-government. Justice for the crime committed cannot fail to come as a result of this adherence to the principles of a strong, healthy community. Cheers to your moral courage TCS!.
1:07 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
There is a lively discussion of this on Boston Biker:
4:57 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
Racist! They do not want the police to harass the youth of color of Jamaica Plain on behalf of the Spoke? What if they were white youth? Then would it be ok? Who cares about skin color? Crime is crime. It ought to be punished.
By not getting the police involved they send a message to the local youth that crime will be tolerated. And the criminals are loose to steal even more. I don't want these thieves running around stealing my bike. TCS is really letting us down by not pursuing this. I no longer feel sorry for them.
7:00 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
When, pray tell, have you ever seen or heard of a stolen bicycle being returned by the BPD? I for one have recovered more stolen bikes personally than i have heard of instances where the police do their job. I believe your hatred towards anything even remotely considered liberal drives you to comment negatively on matters such as these, as i have noticed with your comments on other articles posted to this site. Your no culture warrior, Ajax. And no-one here or anywhere else is reading your comments as thoughtful responses worth consideration.
7:37 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
Sorry bro, you're missing the point. The key here is that the racist BPD will more than likely target youth of color--regardless of who actually did it. Saying "who cares about skin color" within the context of a society that doles out privileges and protections on such a basis is both pointless and ignorant. YOU are the one being racist.
8:01 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
I never realized that investigated crime was racist. One more thing to add to the long list of once innocent activities that is now racist. I guess I am racist for not realizing that investigating/prosecuting crime is racist.
Anyways, maybe if I can now dissolve my local neighborhood watch program (racist, I guess because it targets youth of color as I am told) I can cleanse myself of my sin.
8:48 am on Saturday, November 17, 2012
I fully intend to mock the liberal who cried racism. I had a black friend in college who got a C on a biochemistry test. You know what his explanation was for why he did so poorly? Because the professor was racist. I'm so sick of people telling me how racist everything is. Now I can't even have the police investigate crime and go after criminals in my community because its racist. And according to Stephanie, being colorblind is making me racist. huh? Whats next? I can't go to the dentist to get my teeth whitened?
Sorry Steph, but wanting criminals that make my neighborhood unsafe off the streets does not make me racist.
12:55 pm on Saturday, November 17, 2012
You had me at, "I had a black friend...". What an original intro! You're right - clearly you're not racist. White dude claims racism doesn't pervade the lives of people of color... where have I heard this before?
6:01 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
Hey Ajax, I think you are missing the point. You are suggesting that justice should be colorblind. OK, great, but its not. We live in a racist culture and have a racist legal system. The BPD have shown themselves to be a racist organization again and again. The recent exposition of explicit racism in the BPD Union newsletter (by the Phoenix earlier this year) is only one small example on a much larger pile of evidence to this point
I speak as a white person and a person who lives at the house that the Spoke is run out of, but as someone not directly involved with the Spoke. We recognize that the police will take our complaints more seriously because we are white, and that they may very well use it as an opportunity to harass and detain youth of color, who are painted as inherently criminal by our white supremacist culture. We are not interested in this.
I also speak as a prison abolitionist, knowing that others at my house and in the Spoke are too. We are interested in potentially holding community meetings, looking at restorative justice examples that have worked in other places, and talking to our friends and neighbors about how to move forward with this outside the logic of the racist and extremely inefficient criminal injustice system. We know that punishment and imprisonment don't work and are fundamentally unjust and we want to create alternatives. If you aren't on board with that, and you want to retract your cherished sympathy, good riddance.
6:17 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
I would like to attend this 5 hour GA, please to discuss how to create an efficient answer to the "extremely inefficient injustice system" by "holding community meetings, looking at restorative justice examples that have worked in other places, and talking to our friends and neighbors about how to move forward[...]outside the logic of the racist and extremely inefficient injustice system."
8:09 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
I disagree. I think the BPD will take your complaints more seriously by the nature of how awful the crime was. When I first read the story of the crime, I was shocked that someone would stoop so low to rob a place like this. It made me very upset that thieves without any morals were living in our community. So the BPD cares more about the spoke because the owners are white? Thats awfully high and mighty of you.
You guys are all so out to lunch with this white supremacist thing. For crying out loud we have a two-term black president!
8:14 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
Hi Ajax.
Nobody owns TCS! It's a collective. It belongs to the community. Hence the point.
Okay, maybe it's "high and mighty" of us to look at history and make deductions based on the documented policies and behaviors of BPS officers, which have historically reaped bias towards white folks in gentrifying communities. That seems reasonable. Duh. I seriously love that though, telling us that us noticing racism and giving it visibility essentially makes us racist. Classic. Let's not talk about it and it doesn't exist.
1:07 am on Saturday, November 17, 2012
Ajax, you are right. We have a Black president, so it must not matter that
1. There are more Black people in prison right now than we enslaved in 1850 (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/12/michelle-alexander-more-black-men-in-prison-slaves-1850_n_1007368.html).
2. In 2011, NY Police stopped and frisked Black men without reason more times than there are Black men in NYC, or that some were caught on top calling the people they were frisking "mutts" and "animals" and threatening to plant evidence on them (http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2012/05/10/481589/nypd-stop-and-frisk-young-black-men/).
3. In the US Police killed a Black person EVERY FORTY HOURS (http://www.blackyouthproject.com/2012/07/every-40-hours-a-black-person-is-killed-by-the-police/).
4. The Boston Police Union published an explicitly racist newsletter for years until exposed (http://truth-out.org/news/item/10829).
Taking this and so much else into consideration (this list could go on for hours), I have to admit, you are right, we are out to lunch.
6:36 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
How interesting! I'd like to attend basking in my white privilege and not taking things seriously because the entire world is structured violently around my guaranteed comfort please.
6:38 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
Also I intend to call the police immediately at everyone else's expense if I cannot attend this!
7:27 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
LOL your Occupy rhetoric will not save you here, Eric.
4:32 pm on Saturday, November 17, 2012
Stealing is stealing. The skin color of the person stealing doesn't matter; what they do matters.
If a person of color steals from another person of color, is that okay because the stealing person is not white? The primary victims in low-income communities of color are the other people (of color) who live there--do you know that?
No normal person wants there to be crime in their neighborhood, and that includes people of all colors and all races. That's why our JP crime watches have been so successful--all neighbors watch out to thwart the bad guys, not just the white neighbors.
This group that won't work with the police makes it less safe for all persons in their neighborhood, because their actions will embolden the criminals. If they live in a neighborhood of mixed races, then their refusal endangers their neighbors of color.
Pretty mixed up priorities, or a lack of understanding of how people in the real world live.

8:35 am on Sunday, November 18, 2012
How about we not have F bombs dropped all over the place and that folks stop calling each other names? A little common courtesy would be nice.

Comments involving swears or personal attacks will be deleted. Opinions are fine, but please keep it clean.
7:40 pm on Sunday, November 18, 2012
I would consider the comment above by Stephanie Pershinga "OMG PAT ROBERTS IS ON THE THREAD LOL" to be a personal attack. Has Pat no right to be here? (I don't know wither of these folks.) What are your thoughts on that? Thanks.
8:27 am on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
The police are always misguided and useless until you NEED THEM.
11:05 pm on Thursday, November 22, 2012
Does this guy not realize that JP was one of the most violent areas in all of New England just 20-30 years ago? And that it was largely the actions of the BPD that allowed this whole neighborhood to thrive (and yes, gentrify) in the way it has? And that the police broke up an enormous drug ring operating out of JP recently, and that JP gangs have been feuding and tearing apart the Jackson/Hyde neighborhoods for years? That three people were murdered in Same Old Place a year ago? And this guy thinks the police are the bad guys, and that oiling bike chains for free is the answer to society's woes?
Dude...the police risk their lives every day keeping law abiding citizens of all races in this city safe and sound. And believe it or not, most people of color actually appreciate it when criminals are arrested and prevented from ruining their neighborhoods. I work with minority families every day, and what they actually hate (seems crazy, but it's true!) is when police do nothing and allow crime to flourish and ruin their neighborhoods. Idiot.

Enhancing the customer experience in the age of the empowered customer
Commerce is becoming more and more complex. For businesses this means managing a web of channels and interaction points -- traditional Internet, mobile, physical, social and more -- to successfully and profitably exchange goods and services. For customers – including other businesses – it means gaining control. According to an IBM study of 400 supply chain executives (US), it's no longer enough to build supply chains that are efficient, demand-driven or even transparent, they must also be smart.
Organizations must become smarter about commerce, navigating complexity, while concealing it from customers to create a positive and seamless experience across all channels and interaction points.
IBM Software along with the IBM Smarter Commerce initiative helps you synchronize procurement, marketing, selling and service processes based on customer needs.
IBM Software commerce solution provides:

Comments about Race Face Muni Softshell Jacket:
Bought as casual wear, looks nice, has nice features for around town like 3 zip pockets, headphone routing and large inner pockets.
Fit is good, warm and stops wind, looks crisp and stylish.
Durable enough for a ride jacket but is a more heavy weight.
Comments about Race Face Muni Softshell Jacket:
It's a nice jacket, but the zipper zips from the wrong side. That is to say, the zipper is the opposite of US Men's style.

Comments about Race Face Muni Softshell Jacket:
Got this jacket because of the sale price. Thought it would be a nice post-ride jacket. It's lightweight, windproof, water resistant, and fits great! I'm a 5'6" and size 40 chest, wearing a LARGE. Arm length and jacket length is perfect. Survived a weekend trip to Asheville, NC with my buddies, loading bikes, driving, unloading bikes, packing/unpacking the truck, hanging out, going to bars, talking bike stuff, this jacket's great for it all. Fits right in to any scenario.

Funeral Prepayment Plans from
Funeral Planning Services
Many people wish to provide for their funeral expenses, and a prepaid funeral plan is a caring, sensible and cost-effective way to do so.
The advantage of a funeral plan over a savings account or life insurance policy is that you can pay now, at today's price, and beat inflation - no matter when the service might be required.
The funeral director's fees will be paid by Funeral Planning Trust at the time of the funeral.
Funeral prepayment plans are provided by Funeral Planning Services Limited in association with a network of independent funeral directors throughout the UK.
All funeral prepayments are held in Funeral Planning Trust until required and fully comply with the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
The Funeral Planning Trust
Funeral Planning Trust was established in 1995 by Funeral Planning Services Limited to hold and invest funeral payments received by the company for the funding of funeral services. The funds are held by the trust until such time as they are required to pay for funerals.
The fund is managed by independent trustees, actuaries and professional investment managers. Its total net assets at 31st March 2012 were in excess of £93.5 million.
The total number of plans purchased since Funeral Planning Trust was founded now exceeds 52,000 and over 17,900 funerals have been paid for by the trust over 16 years.
For further information, please visit www.funeralplanningtrust.co.uk
Important note concerning the Mayer Funeral Home, with branches in Westcliff-on-Sea, Romford and Southend. Please note that we do not administer funeral plans for this company, nor has Funeral Planning Trust received any funeral prepayments from them. Any implication that this company is supported by Funeral Planning Services Limited or Funeral Planning Trust is misleading.

Clean architectural lines with a warmth and Zen like ambiance. The clients requested that we create a dream house for their site in the Zimbali forest estate. Several bodies of water, including Koi ponds, water features and a rimflow swimming pool appear to coalesce into one, and flow through the house and out into the forest.
The stacked roof is fragmented and linked with flat roof slabs, in correspondence to the spatial arrangement of the rooms below, which both scales and articulates the massing of the house. The main bedroom suite cantilevers six metres over the patio below, providing protection from the weather, as well as "wow" factor.
Large amounts of glazing optimize views of the indigenous bush that encapsulates the house, and together with the palette of raw materials including natural timber, off shutter concrete, water and natural stone cladding, offset the clean architectural lines with a warmth and Zen like ambiance.
As a practice, Metropole Architects, are inspired by the energy of the city, as it unceasingly moves, radiates and evolves like a vast living organism. We aim to generate design that stakes out new territory, and explore ideas that are intuitive, inventive, exuberant and daring. Enthused by visionary architects like John Lautner and Santiago Calatrava, we aspire to create iconic and progressive architectural wonders that capture our collective imagination.

Re: Model Antennajsplaine,
Does the antenna have a digital elevation sensor? It should work with either DirecTV SD or Dish Network SD or HD.
Re: Model AntennaYes I have the Digital Indicator
Re: Model AntennaThe model you are using would most likely be an RM-DM46 and is definitely capable for DirecTV SD and Dish Network both SD and HD for single satellite viewing.

Due to the complexity of the Collegiate Water Polo Association structure, the possibility of ties in divisions is a probable occurence during the course of a season.
To break these ties, a fair and balanced system was enacted with the league's founding to guarantee that the seedings for the division championships is based not on the opinion of coaches or the league office, but on the performance which advanced the tied ties to that point in the season.
It is important to note that the tiebreaker procedures set forth by the league are used to eliminate one team at a team. If a tie remains following the implementation of the procedure, the process begins again at head-to-head competition between the two teams and follows the set forth guidelines until no ties remain in the league standings.

For many, nothing can beat the feel, touch and smell of a real book. Books are tangible objects — a person can feel them in his or her hands and turn the pages, even write in the books if one wishes. With the growing popularity of e-readers and digital downloading, many area residents are now choosing to read books with an e-reader.
An e-reader is a device that resembles a small computer screen. It is light, portable, and incorporates wireless technology.
These devices are mainly used to download books, but many also use them to access the Internet, play games, read magazines and newspapers, as well as watch television shows and movies.
Digital book pages are very similar to regular book pages, but instead of turning the pages, a swipe across the screen with one's finger leads to the next page. There are also options that allow the reader to zoom in, mark text for later access, and some e-readers even have a built-in dictionary feature.
Most owners of e-readers purchase books online and download them to their devices, but there are free books available as well.
Mount Airy Public Library patrons have access to many free digital books for multiple devices, including digital audio books. The Surry Community College library also offers e-book downloads for staff and students.
Impact on local bookstores
Sandy Gwynn, of Pages Bookstore in downtown Mount Airy, said some customers have mentioned their preference for traditional books over reading books on their e-reader devices.
Gwynn said that "some older customers and parents with young children have mentioned they don't like the e-readers because they hurt their eyes."
Other customers who still prefer traditional books include those who purchase books because they want to be able to mark the text and bookmark pages for easy access later, such as high school students who are buying books for their honor classes. Also, children's books are usually preferred over the digital versions because the illustrations are more appealing on the printed page.
The impact on business has been noticeable for Gwynn, but mainly with hardcover books. Most books are first released in a hardcover edition, which is more expensive than the paperback edition. In addition, the paperback edition is often released months or even a year after the hardcover. The new release timeline for books once boosted the sales of the more expensive, hardcover editions, because customers did not want to wait for the paperback release.
Now, with the convenience of e-readers and digital downloads, Gwynn said the sales of the new release hardcover editions have dropped.
Some Pages Bookstore customers will only buy hardcover books because they prefer the look of that type of book on their shelves, but others without aesthetic preferences are now digitally purchasing the first release through their e-readers due to the cheaper prices.
A parent's perspective
Stephanie Combs has an e-reader, but she prefers to read an actual, physical book. Self-described as an traditional parent who still wants to make technology available to her two sons, Dalton, 9, and Gage, 5, Combs prefers for her kids to read a real book instead of use their e-readers.
After her sons asked Santa Claus for e-readers, Combs and her husband decided it was OK for Santa to fulfill this wish, but Combs and her husband have always monitored the use of the devices.
"I believe it is beneficial for learning, and now they do read more because they have their e-readers," Combs said. "They love their e-readers and would probably use them all the time, if I let them, especially my youngest son." She still insists that her sons read regular books and the family visits the library frequently.
For her personal reading preference, Combs loves having books in her home, although she sometimes uses an e-reader in situations such as at night, when she does not want to wake anyone by leaving her light on.
"I am a reader and I like to keep the books that I read — I may highlight certain passages or write in the margins. I love the idea that my kids will have my books one day and they can flip through them and see what I thought or felt about certain passages. I love how a bookcase looks and it is part of my home decor. I will always have a stack of favorite books on my nightstand."
Combs and her husband encourage their kids to "slow down" and enjoy being a kid, through activities like playing outside and sitting down to enjoy a good book without the aid of technology.
Sally Surratt Reece has two daughters, 7-year-old Kinlee and 9-year-old Paxton. Reece has an e-reader that she purchased almost a year ago because she was looking for a certain book to read, but it was not available locally and she did not want to wait on a copy to arrive in the mail.
Reece said she is reading more than ever now that she has an e-reader and she loves the free books that are available through many different avenues, including the library. Her daughters increased their reading time as well and they also use their e-readers to play games and access the Internet.
Reece mentioned that both daughters have taken their e-readers to school when the teacher allows them to bring them in for free-reading time, although she also said that it is entirely up to the teacher; some teachers allow students to bring their e-readers and laptops or tablets on a daily basis.
Another bonus of owning an e-reader, according to Reece, is the convenience of ordering a new book as soon as a person is finished with the last one. This is convenient for those who are reading books in a series, which her daughter, Paxton, enjoys.
As a Daisy Girl Scout leader, Reece also uses her e-reader to help with the topics and tasks for her scout troop because she is able to access information and books quickly. During Tuesday's girl scout meeting, Reece used her e-reader to read a story about bullying to her scouts.
Library Digital Downloads
In response to the increase in popularity, the Mount Airy Public Library held several e-book and digital audio book download demonstration sessions over the past couple of months.
Angela Llewellyn of the Mount Airy Public Library said there was a large turnout for the first session, with more than 20 attendees. The second session brought in around 15 people.
"We do have traditionalists who come in and say they prefer the weight and smell of the books, but we also have quite a few people interested in downloading the books for their computers or e-readers," said Llewellyn, who believes the popularity of e-readers and downloadable books has actually brought in new library patrons.
"It is a way to reach a section of the community who might not come in and check out actual books."
The Mount Airy Public Library is offering another chance for anyone who is interested in learning about the e-book downloads by hosting a demonstration session on Monday. Those who are interested in attending may drop in at any time from 4 to 7 p.m. and are asked to bring their e-reader as well as any cords or passwords that may be needed.

Background & General Information
Engaging Bystanders in Sexual Violence Prevention
Joan Tabachnick The National Sexual Violence Resource Center, 2009
This book presents a compelling orientation to the importance of engaging bystanders in sexual violence prevention. The narrative provides background on the development of an approach that empowers each of us to be involved in prevention. It discusses various reasons why individuals who witness a range of inappropriate behaviors may or may not take action, and presents ways to encourage and develop greater bystander involvement. Finally, this book serves as an excellent training resource; it provides activities and trainer instructions throughout that make it a useful educational guide on bystander engagement in sexual violence prevention. Also available in Spanish.
Katz discusses the importance of bystander intervention in a three-part series of reflections on the Penn State sexual abuse scandal and calls for action moving forward. He highlights the benefits of bystander intervention as a leadership development and sexual violence prevention strategy. Also see our response to Sandusky page.
This list highlights helpful resources that incorporate a bystander approach into sexual violence prevention efforts. Also available in Spanish.
Research evaluating the effectiveness of a bystander education program found that both men and women who participated showed positive changes in behaviors over time.
A newsletter entirely devoted to the bystander intervention approach to primary prevention. This publication explores the Red Flag Campaign, Relationship Roles in Ending Sexism and Male Dominance, and program highlights.
This UK report sets out 15 innovative case studies of 'promising' prevention programs including workshops with boys in schools, drama groups, enabling girls at risk of gang violence to access decision makers, and training 'bystanders' to intervene to challenge the attitudes of their peers. See the campaign: A Different World is Possible!
Through work with the Stand and Serve Initiative, these preventionists discuss making bystander intervention an action-oriented approach to prevention.
