You don't pay for tutoring unless you find a good fit!
Bonjour!My name is Charlotte, I was born in the US but my two parents are French and I grew up in France.I studied French literature, Geography, History and English in high school and during my two first years of college, and I have a Master's in city planning.I have worked as a city planner for a year in one of the most international architecture firms in Paris where I used to teach French to some of my co-workers, from 23 to 40 years old. I can teach both writing and speaking, formal and more casual French. I also worked as an examiner for baccalaureat students (French equivalent of A-Level) in Geography and History.I like to work with a few different materials such as films, short stories, novels, music, the Internet, etc. I also adjust the lesson to the student's level, wishes and age.

They have changed a lot of holes and I do not like it. Half of the new signs are gone, so I was playing it as if the baskets were in the original spots. A lot longer now and it decreased the rating of the course.
+0 votes Kevin Zane › February 14, 2011
Pros: The scenery here definitely made a lasting impression on me. The mountains in the background and the beautiful views of Lake Dillon were incredible. There were also a couple of ski lift benches that added a really nice touch.
There is plenty of parking available here and although I was here on a weekend, it is far from what I would consider crowded. (this could also be due to the fact that I was there in kind of an off season). The course is very easy to find. Before the start of hole 1, ...

New Polk I-Sonic debuts iTunes Tagging for HD Radio
Polk Audio has taken the wraps off the I-Sonic Entertainment System 2, the follow-up to the company's impressive 2006 tabletop AV system. The new ES2 model gets the iPod dock that was missing from the original I-Sonic, but it loses the Swiss-Army-knife luster of that all-in-one model: gone are CD/DVD player and XM satellite radio support (though an auxiliary line-in port lets you connect any external device of your choosing). Video output (for the increasingly burgeoning number of video-capable iPods) remains, as does the dual alarm clock and HD Radio tuner. And it's the interaction between the HD Radio and the iPod where the new I-Sonic debuts a first-of-its-kind feature called iTunes Tagging. … Read more

Russian School Kids Entertain Lion Cub
Originally published on Mon December 3, 2012 4:31 am
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. An elementary school pet is typically an animal that can be kept in a terrarium or a small cage, like say a hamster. For a few hours, some Russian village kids cared for a far wilder creature - a lion cub they found in a field after it escaped from the trunk of a car. Waiting for police to come and take it to a local zoo, the kids played with it in the gym. The cub reportedly swiped the air but did not bite. It's MORNING EDITION.

Sorry, but you are delusional.. Obama is only another puppet, and you are worse off as a black race. John F. Kennedy was America's last Great President, and he was killed for that. NEXT!!!
I second what "ChampagneMoments" said!
Perhaps, it is because Obama is an effective (in many ways) leader, who is also having to work with one of the toughest administrative hand-me-downs in history.
But, part of Obama's charm is that he isn't just black--he's half-white--which, I find, many black people do not want to acknowledge.
And compared to the average African president, he stands far and above most of them, except, of course, for Mandela.

Creating an Article in Drupal 7
In our last few articles we have been reviewing content types in Drupal 7. At this point you should know:
- How articles and basic pages are different in Drupal 7
- How to write a basic page in Drupal 7
The next thing we need to do now is learn how to create an article in Drupal 7.
To create a new article in Drupal 7:
- Log into Drupal as an administrator
- In the top menu, click Content
- Find and click the Add Content link
- From the list of content types, click Article
- The rest of the steps are very similar to those of creating basic pages in Drupal 7. For example, you'll need to enter a Title, Body, and so on. If you need more information about all of the options you have on this page (such as Menu Settings, URL path settings, etc), please reference our previous article.
There are a few new options on the Article Page, specifically:
Body (Edit Summary) By default, new articles will show up on your homepage. If you have many long articles on your homepage, it can become very long and difficult to navigate. If you instead enter a summary for this article, only the summary will show. This will end up making your homepage looking much cleaner. If users like your summary and want to read the rest of the article, they can click the Read More link under the summary. Tags When writing articles, you can tag them with descriptive words. For example, if you ran a website about computers, you may tag articles based upon the operating system they belong to, such as Linux, Mac, or Windows. These tags will be published under your article content, and when clicked will show a listing of other articles with the same tags. Image If you would like an image associated with this article, such as a header image, use this Image feature to upload a picture to associate with the article. - When you're finished writing your new article, click Save at the bottom of the page.
New articles by default show on your homepage, so visit your Drupal 7 site's front page to see your new article!

Yes, I'm doing research for a song. Because not all songs are about the writer's navel-gazing feelings, or about love, that bottomless pit of inspiration (and too often cliché) for songwriters.
I love writing songs on unusual topics and songs that tell stories. If they tell a Canadian story, even better. So I'm now writing one about the Sharon Temple (http://www.sharontemple.ca/ ), a unique heritage site in the town of Sharon, ON, not far from where I live.
The temple, completed in 1832, was built by a fascinating sect called the Children of Peace. You could say they were the first hippies: they valued peace, social justice and equality; they lived together cooperatively in one village; they held feasts where everyone shared food; they wore colourful clothing when they marched in processions; and music and song were a big part of their worship – they even put together the first civilian band in Ontario.
When I visited the temple last summer I thought maybe there was a song there – after all, I'd already written one about the Thomas Foster Memorial near Uxbridge, another striking building with a poignant tale behind it.
So I began by reading a book about the sect written by the curator of the temple, John McIntyre, who also happens to be a friend. Then I wondered: would I simply recount the basic facts, how Pennsylvanian David Willson came to Upper Canada looking for land, joined a Quaker meeting, and then had visions that led him to break away from the Quakers to found the Children of Peace and build the temple? That was too straightforward.
One photograph I'd seen at Sharon haunted me: the abandoned temple, paint peeled away, windows broken, with cows grazing obliviously around it. http://www.sharontemple.ca/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=15&Itemid=18
I kept wondering what it must have felt like to see the temple in that sorry state while recalling its glory days. So I invented a very old woman, the last surviving member of the sect, to be the narrator of my song. I sent my first-draft lyrics to John. He told me that the last member had indeed been a woman, Emily McArthur (1837-1924); she'd been part of the sect for decades and had in fact seen the temple looking as it had in the photograph!
I knew then I'd found my way into the song. Here's the first verse (note the village of Sharon was originally named Hope by the Children of Peace):
my name is Emily McArthur
I am old but I remember
when our meeting flourished, one in spirit and in mind
and we named our village Hope
and thus we lived in Hope and prospered
but now I am alone, I am the last one of my kind
In another post I'll explain some of the other writing challenges I'm facing with this song and how John and my piano player are helping me sort them out. Meanwhile, if you've ever done research for a song, leave a comment and let me know…

Gluten-free, Vegan Red Wine Chocolate Cake |
I live in Chicago, and we are in the middle of a teachers' strike. Since my husband is a teacher, and my sister --with whom I share a building-- is a teacher, and I have two school-aged children, this is a stressful time for us.
I am so very proud of my husband, sister, and all of the wonderful teachers who live and work in Chicago. My kids and I are out on the picket line supporting the teachers who make our neighborhood school one of the best in the state. With that said, though, I have been enjoying a not-so-healthy, but somewhat comforting diet, that highlights chocolate cake and red wine.
My good friend said, you should make your red wine cake! It combines them both in one dish! Oh yeah ... good idea!
I first wrote about this cake for xgfx.org the amazing website that celebrates all things vegan and gluten-free. I thought it was definitely time to bring it to my own site. In addition to providing a little comfort to a stressed-out mama, it makes a lovely dinner party dessert!
If you are interested in some information about the strike and what's at stake, this article is really helpful.
I shared this post with Gluten-free Friday, Allergy-free Wednesday & Slightly Indulgent Tuesday.

Chapter 1:Kaytawna
Kaytawna woke up that morning,her sleeping bag wet with sweat. Why is it wet? She thought.The flap to the tent opened. "Your up early!"Boomed her father,Stavik. "Well...I must have had a dream that I forgot about..." Kaytawna said. "You do have that illness,"said her father.Barks broke out in the village. "Stay,here..." He walked off."OK father."

^ that lasted afew pages in a note book
Young loner,Kurt had been looking for food. "At least a rabbit..." He said out loud. Then he saw it,The camp with fire roasted rabbits,venison,and bear."A wolves dream....." His mouth watered. He Barked,soon after a DOG barked. "oh crap.." He barked louder and ran to the village."mmm..." His mouth watered even more.He swiftly stole a peice of venison,when a large male came.

She couldn't help but go out side the tent. "father,father if its a wolf don't kill it!"she pleaded. "why not?"Stavik booms.He was looming over the defenseless wolf. "Hes defenseless,all he wanted was venison!" She cried out. "He invaded my camp and stole my food.Do YOU want to be punished instead?"He asked her."No father,let me take him to the forest,where he belongs!"she begged. "Fine,you better return." He boomed.She walked out of the camp.

I like the bouncing back and forth on the points of view, but I think you need to flesh out the chapters a bit more. Also I think your characters motivations need to be either reconsidered or exposed more fully. No one who has had to live in a camp environment with wolves nearby considers them defenseless, especially when they're hungry enough to brave humans and fire for a meal. That makes them more dangerous, not less. And what kind of a father lets his "sick" daughter wander off with a hungry wild animal? Unless there's a darn good reason for it, I can tell you as father myself, that the answer would have been more along the lines of, yes you can be angry at me but your protection is my higher priority...now stay still while I kill it.
Cool ideas, I can't wait to see more!
Posted Apr 7, '12 at 8:04pm
theres a reason behind is,plus the illnes only happens on certain nights,so their you go
This human gives off a firmilar scent,smells like....Mom?!?!? "The fact that he didn't kill you was lucky,the part where I could take you home is better." She said. I can understand her!!!
"The fact that your here is annoying,the fact that I met you is funny,not ha-ha funny funny weird." Kurt said "You can talk to me?"She asked me. "Apparently,unless im hallucinating.You...need to speak to Mage."
"Who?" She asked. "The Mage,his name is Mage." He retorted."What will happen to me?" She whimpered. "You'll most likely live with us."
Posted Apr 8, '12 at 11:30am
"So where is this camp?" Asked Kaytawna. "In the forest," He retorted. "To the left."So they went.In their path was a bear."I am the guardian of this forest path!" He Barked. "Go away or face Death!"
"Why? I lived here all my life." "Because,its my territory,I take it.Orjon will not let you pass!"

The idea of it is pretty interesting. Oh yeah, you're that animal controller in my RPG. I can see why you chose that power. Anyways, the chapters should be longer, like Tobisper said. It's still good, though!

As should your posts.
This, even if you are trying to justify it.
The chapters and events needs a lot more fleshing out, even if you only want them to be short events with shifting point of view. As it is, we have no sympathy or understanding for either of the protagonists, and considering you do use the shifting PoV, you have plenty of opportunity to expand on the characters, their thought and actions. From chapter four, the changing PoV seems to be completely unnecessary for the same reason. You are telling the same things as you would in a generic point of view, you are not even writing it by point of view logics, as you are following both the characters, both of them are written in third person perspective, and there is no distinction between the chapters besides you writing their names in the chapter line. To be honest, you could successfully merge the chapters together if you have no interest in using the tool you have taken. Not to mention that would make the chapters a lot longer and making more sense. The chapters does not make sense as new chapters besides you trying to change the point of view and failing to do so, and perhaps making out when you didn't bother writing more.
Something else: Your introductory chapter for either character is also seriously lacking. The readers are left with a sense of confusion, and you give them no chance to catch up. This, along with the poor characterisation and descriptions does mean that we are merely reading a text rather than reading a story.
Either way, it is an interesting concept, but as of yet, it has been poorly executed. For the next chapter, sit down and think as a story teller rather than a writer, it might help you writing the story in a compelling a fluent way. Other than that, you might want to add descriptions after writing your chapters, if you do not feel like venturing into that field of writing just yet.

Wired.com has a new article comparing obesity trends in 1985 vs. today, and let me tell you, it's not pretty.
No state had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. 39 states had a prevalence of 25% or more; 12 of these states had a prevalence of 30% or more.
You should take a look at the article, just to see the difference in the color-coded maps. It's sad. Now, that said, I don't think this news surprises anyone, so instead of overanalyzing this story, let's ask the important question. Where do media outlets get all these stock images of fat people? Every other local news story features b-roll footage of overweight people's stomachs as they walk around the mall. If the videographer is good he'll pan from the blurry image of the fat person over to the Cinnabon sign to really drive the point home. We get it. People are overweight. Do we really need the neck-down images of large people walking in and out of Lord & Taylor? What happens when those people get home and watch the news, then see their midsection shaking around during a story on proposed soda bans? My worst nightmare is one day seeing myself on one of those stories. I'm not afraid of death or public speaking, but I have a crippling fear of being "unknown fat guy #3" in a local news story. I would rather be stabbed in the parking garage. Which also has a good chance of happening. Quite frankly I'm not sure why anyone goes to the mall any more.

Two-channel acoustic amp
Ideal for the acoustic performer, the AGA Series of VOX Acoustic Guitar Amplifiers is now led by the new AGA150. Rippling with power, this 150 Watt acoustic guitar amp is designed to perfectly project the subtle resonances and sweet, mellow tones of an acoustic instrument. Each of the two channels (Normal and Tube Pre) is equipped with a standard guitar input, as well as a microphone input with selectable phantom power. An electro-acoustic guitar or mic can be connected to each channel, making this the perfect amp for a singer-instrumentalist. An additional Lo-Z / Hi-Z switch on each input accommodates a variety of signal levels.
12AU7 vacuum tube preamp
The Tube Pre channel preamp features a 12AU7 (ECC82) dual-triode vacuum tube, imparting your guitar or vocal sound with the roundness and warmth so distinctive of the vacuum tube sound.
COLOR function and on-board effects add convenient control
In addition to Bass, Middle, and Treble tone controls, each channel provides an effective COLOR control. Working in harmony with the traditional EQ, the COLOR knob allows you to quickly shift the tonal response to match your performance. This additional control accommodates a broad variety of sounds ranging from thick and robust to sparkling and clean. Choose the perfect setting for any performance technique, whether it's rapid-fire arpeggios or solid strumming. A full complement of effects is also available on each channel. The Chorus effect is selectable via a switch; the Reverb can be added in any amount using the Reverb knob. The AGA150 is all you need to complete your sound.
Versatile design offers the right connections for any situation
The AGA150 provides stereo line inputs that can accept the signal from a keyboard or other musical instrument – even a multi-track recorder. Use the AUX input and connect an MP3 player or other audio source to enjoy a jam session. The DI (balanced XLR) output offers a convenient way to send your sound to a larger PA system without using a direct box, and still allowing the AGA150 to control your mix. The Tuner output is always active, even when the main output is muted for silent tuning between songs and sets. The Anti-Feedback control minimizes acoustic feedback, making the AGA150 a good choice as a stage monitor. The optional VFS2 provides footswitch control of the Effect Bypass or All Mute functions, offering great flexibility during a live performance

Buy Write ETN
A few days ago I wrote about the buywrite ETN (BWV) for RealMoney. My initial reaction is positive but I do plan to give a couple of months before I make a final decision about buying it. If it can track the CBOE BuyWrite Index (^BXM), which I can't be certain of yet, I will probably buy it.
The chart compares the BuyWrite index with the market price and the NAV for the Madison Claymore Covered Call Fund (MCN & XMCNX) which is a fund I owned across the board and a name I still have for one or two clients.
The charts of MCN and XMCNX are distorted due to its large dividend but even factoring the distortion BXM looks to be less volatile on a short term basis.
If I end up buying BWX I can envision allocating 2% to it and pairing back the call writing CEF I use now to 2% for a total of 4% for some clients.
Relative to the way I allocate to these things 4% might seem a little high but for now my take is that the CEFs, being actively managed, are riskier than an indexed product. There is no attempt to chase yield, no matter what the at the money call is trading for that is what is sold, period.
One item about BWV to point out is that it will not pay a dividend. According to a phone call to Barclays last week, any income derived within the fund will accrue to the NAV.
To be clear BWV, IMO, needs to prove it can track the index.
An unrelated item; yesterday during the NCAA Lacrosse D-1 final commentator Quint Kessenich said that if lacrosse was a stock Cramer would say "buy."

I notice that some portfolio mangers invest in 'international fixed income'. Would you be kind enough to explain the rational for this? Is it a combination of:
1. Possible higher interest rate overseas?
2. Possibly dollar depreciation against the foreign currnecy?
Thanks for your time.

Is it only time that will tell if this will match the index? A more interesting chart is if you put the BWX against ^GSPC. It really looks like the S&P without the volatility. Definitely seems to be a buy, but if it doesn't match the index, it's a waste of time.

Is there any way you know of to find a "list" of covered-call CEFs?
I'd like to look into and compare some but my usual info sources (like ETFConnect etc.) don't seem to break them out as a separate category so its a bit tough getting started. Thanks. - 10:23 AM

Roger - what sort of accounts will you place this fund in? If Barclays tax opinion is correct it belongs in a non-sheltered account.
However, if the tax treatment is not cap gain/loss upon sale, it probably is better in a sheltered account.
Thanks - 10:27 AM

i'll address the foreign fixed income question in its own post.
I don't know where to get a comprehensive list of call writing CEFs. The symbols I watch are MCN, FFA, BEP, IGD, BOE, EBI, EEF, EOI, ETB, HCE, NFJ, JPZ, JSN. There are more.
BOE and MCN are client holdings.
The BXM chart is very compelling which makes BWV very compelling but it has to prove itself.
Re the tax question; taxes are never the first criteria for investment decision for me. If I ever use an ETN and have a choice I think I would go IRA in case the IRS makes an unfavorable ruling. - 11:21 AM

When would you consider itself proven? Is this just a wait and see type thing? If so, how long?
- Roger Nusbaum said...
I can't give an exact time but I would think six months might be enough time maybe less? Not 100% positive.
- Andrew said...
I assume you meant BEO and not BOE. - 4:15 PM
- Roger Nusbaum said...
No, BOE for foreign.
- Andrew said...
gotcha. Would you recommend staying away from BEO because of the leverage? I believe it is indexed against BXM.

I am sorry it has been ages since I looked at this one--I forgot about it.
In general terms leveraging a concept that has become very popular seems like a big risk relative to what the space is supposed to offer (better put, my perception of what it is supposed to offer).
My own preference is for simple lower volatility and high yield. I want this to be as simple as I can make it.
Might be right for you but of course I have no idea, I can just give you my take on what I would or would not do.
I think it might make more sense to add risk from a segment that is supposed to be risky? - 4:37 PM

Shimano XT FD-M785 Front Derailleur - Double $49.95
The Shimano XT Double Front Derailleur FD-M785 has been designed to optimize its function with two chainrings. To this end, the cage length and shaping is specific to the smaller diameter differential between the big and little rings on a 2x10 DynaSys drivetrain. Whether you run a 26/38t or a 28/42t crank, this is the changer you'll want.
Otherwise, the FD-M785 designation means that this is a low-clamp/ top-swing derailleur. For what it's worth, Shimano's top-swing derailleurs always tickle the scale a few grams lighter than their traditional counterparts, and this one's no exception. The limit screws are angled to the outside to make adjustments easier on many of today's complex rear suspension designs. Compared to its XTR counterpart, this XT derailleur is the functional equivalent. The cage shaping is the same, the only difference being a few grams.
The Shimano XT Double Front Derailleur FD-M785 is available with two mounting options -- E-Type or Multi-Clamp (28.6, 31.8, and 34.9mm). It uses Shimano's Dual Pull lever arm, so it works for top tube and down tube cable routing.

2X10 shifting great.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I switched from 3X10 to 2X10 and before I got this double shifting was not spot on. Now it works great up and down with fast reliable shifts under all conditions. This one is much smaller than the same model for 3X10 and feels lighter.
Does its job...

WELL. Nice work again shimano!

Recently, interviews with Sun's Open Source Diva, Danese Cooper, and Sun's Java Web Services Developer Pack Architect, Eduardo Pelegri-Llopart have been posted.
First, java.sun.com held an interview with Danese Cooper, who manages Sun's Open Source (OS) Programs Office. The interview reviews Sun's progress in making good on its promise to allow OS versions of its specs, compatibility branding for OS projects, the reason why JBoss can't be J2EE branded, etc.
And finally, TheServerSide.com recently interviewed Eduardo Pelegri-Llopart as part of its Hard Core Tech Talks series. He describes the Java Community Process (JCP) and the role of a spec lead. He talks about Sun's Web services strategy, and how current vendors' approaches to building Web services differ from that of Sun. He describes how developers can use the different JAX APIs in their projects, and discusses the role of JAX-RPC, JAXM, and JAXR. He also looks at Web services support in J2EE 1.4.

With three 120mm cooling fans, the airflow of the X-Cruiser2 has been improved over the original X-Cruiser case model, allowing better circulation of air and cooling of system components. Sleek and modern with a slightly retro look, the case door comes with three gauges to monitor system performance: fan speed, temperature, and volume sensitivity. The X-Cruiser2 comes equipped with a controller for both the sensitivity gauge and fan speeds (which can control up to four fans). USB2.0 and Firewire compliant, ports are included on the front left side of the case along with headphone and microphone jacks that support the HD Audio standard format.

Awesome CasePros: Very Light... but Tough Case.. Beautiful... Best Case I Have Bought In A Long Time For A Great Price! Cons: NONE!!! Did you find this review helpful? |
Nice looking casePros: Cool looking case with all the gauges on the front, very convenient. Not too heavy, Big window on the side to see inside. Has a nice glow to it from the blue lights, looks really cool at night. Cons: Wish it had a couple more fans (top, another side,). Not the best case for extreme builders but is a nice starter case if your just looking for something cool looking. Not the best for airflow, front fan is blocked by the front door. Did you find this review helpful? |
Still worksPros: Great Color, fans still spinning, everything works. Not a single problem. Cons: Fans are a bit noisy, but they are fans...what do you expect? Other Thoughts: Want something that works right out of the box? We'll you found it. Did you find this review helpful? |
Squeaky wheelPros: pretty Cons: built for looks, not for reliability Other Thoughts: This is an update to a previous review. I had an issue with the wiring after about a week and a half. Thankfully, ASUS tech support figured it out when I called thinking it was the board. Despite what manufactures and retailers say, my motto is 'forgiveness is divine, but never pay return shipping for defective merchandise'. At first, apevia wouldn't even do that. They offered me a length of wire to repair the faulty power button. Eventually, after my continued emails, they caved, and are honoring the claim on their site that 'our strategy is to stand behind our customers to ensure total satisfaction'. Bold words. A better strategy for the future might be making your products a bit sturdier instead of relying on the hassle of the RMA process to keep returns down. Again, the case is very pretty but until the replacement arrives, I have to bridge the power pins on my board with a screw driver to get it to post. I am not fond of bad touching my shiny new computer like this. Did you find this review helpful? |
Azul!Pros: Pretty. Cons: door feels a bit flimsy Other Thoughts: Read the reviews for the same case in different colors. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: It's very pretty. Cons: The wiring to the front panel being visible when the front is open seems a little cheap - too bad it wasn't designed with a proper hinge that the wiring could have been run through instead. On the other hand - we almost never open it. Other Thoughts: It does look very nice - I bought this for my gf's build and she's very happy with it. It has no serious issues. Did you find this review helpful? |
RETRO??Pros: Pretty cool case. Lights up well. Good airflow. Stays cool. Has a retro/classic car look to it with the analog guages and chrome on the front. Cons: This is the case my wife chose because of lack of more "girly" choices. So, perhaps, more color options. She would have been very happy with purple for example. Did you find this review helpful? |
Nice but flawedPros: I bought this case for my wife, who loves the aesthetics. The case is very nice looking and is relatively sturdy. Seems like a good value for the money, at least at the rebated price. I had absolutely no problems building my wife's computer in this case. Cons: The gauges don't work all that well. As analog gauges they just don't give precise enough information to be useful. I'm not sure the VU meter works at all. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great case - just a little on the small sidePros: Sweet aesthetics, fairly large, side panel window, plenty of HDD and optical drive spaces available, front gauges are nice Cons: Cramped when loaded up with a big GPU i.e. ati radeon 5870, could use more room for cooling, front door closing could EVENTUALLY lead to wires fraying if you're not careful Other Thoughts: This is a pretty great start-up case for a beginning gamer. I have a Gigabyte ga-870a-ud3 motherboard and an ati radeon 5870 GPU powered by a 775 watt thermaltake toughpower xt power supply. I also have asetek 510LCLC liquid cooling and I have modded its radiator by adding a 2nd fan for push-pull. My case is now very cramped lol I am surprised how quickly I filled it because it's actually not too small. The problem is the power color pcs+ 5870 GPU has PCI-e power connections on the short side of the GPU so the cables stick all the way into the 3.5" bays of the case. I have 2 HDD's there but may add an SSD someday but that will require moving some cables around creatively. The plus side of this case is that it's just beautiful and (at least for me so far) it runs very cool and quiet. The front door is a big plus for me too because I just installed a LITE ON dvd/cd burner which is kind of loud so being able to cover it makes it quiet :) All in all, I recommend this case! Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: - Removable motherboard tray Cons: - Light on VU meter died after about a month, also VU meter did not work a lot of the time. Other Thoughts: - Not that spacious, but I lived. Did you find this review helpful? |

The Diehard Men's steel Toe Work Oxford - Black is so confortable. It has re-enforced intersoles. I like the shoe strinks very much. The kind that come with the shoe are very easy to tie and with a strong tie, stay tied longer than the nylon round type. Also they are black and don't show soiling as bad.

Sole on one shoe came loose after a few weeks. Poor quality leather covering. Not like the Craftsman shoes that were American made.
Saranac, MI
via sears.com
Every time I need a new pair of shoes, I have purchased this particular type of shoe from Sears over the past 15 years. Why? Because they are the only type of shoe that is comfortable for me to wear for long periods of time. They are unreasonably priced, last a long time and are the most dependable type of shoe that I have ever owned. I will continue to purchase this type of shoe for as long as they are offered by Sears at a reasonable price.

Quality heavy leather uppers offer side panel proper support for the feet. The soft comfortable insoles are glued & cannot be removed. A flat 1/8" thick foam insole can be added later for comfort. After a few months the steel toes may eat holes in your socks. Buy the more expensive guaranteed work socks from sears & never worry about holes in your socks again.
