For around 6-7K This phone is amazing, especially being a Walkman phone it has amazing deep bass and clear sound and has everything else you can think of in 7K range.... The touch experience is one of the best on this device as the interface is optimized for touch... I am going ahead and buying this for casual texting and listening to music... it even has a 3.5 mm audio jack what else do you want for 7K :)
Well, as for as Flipkart is concern, I heart-fully appreciate their service and the best prices.
Coming to the product, WT13i is undoubtedly a great product.
- Slim design and the touch screen is great
- Easy to manage features
- Good Music output - Crystal clear and best optimized
- A lot of other features which I do not use
Coming to the disadvantages,
- Though the camera produces the best quality pictures, it is lacking some of the key options
- No Optical Zoom and No Digital Zoom which is disappointing
- Would have been great if image edit options are available
- All photos are stored in a single locations. It would have been better if it creates folders based on the dates which will help to identify the images based on the dates
- Walkman features are not in line with the Music Version mobiles - This needs a lot of enhancement
- No option on the mobile to delete tracks which are not required. - Every time we need to connect to the PC to delete.- This is disappointing.
- Overall the product is very good but not best optimized - Could have been made far better with the same features.
I have been a fan of Sony Ericsson but I am disappointed with the Mix. It is NOTHING like the W810i or W595 which were the best in their respective price bands. It's probably the only phone in the 6k range and is okay if you want a second phone which is sleek looking (or something that looks like an htc phone). It's a normal phone for messaging and making calls - though I wouldn't pay even 6k for just making calls and messaging.
Here's a look at the phone:
- Sleek design
- Okay camera, better than Nokia
- Okay music playback, not as good as earlier walkman phones though
- It's Java based. Big deal.
- Too many bugs
- You can't back up your data
- It's not compatible with SE PC Suite - You can use the memory card like a USB pen drive
- Don't expect good service after you buy the handset (which has always been the problem with Sony Ericsson)
- Camera has no zoom!
- The music playback is such a letdown especially after using great handsets like the previous Walkman series
- You can't view images which you download off your internet
- you can't edit images that you have clicked
Hope this review helps you. I feel cheated after buying this phone (though I did not buy it through Flipkart)
good looking crap..
> no file manager
> very low sound even when using in-ear type earplugs.
> cannot open big size files like pics of high res.
> boaring interface.
you can go for samsung wave 525 which is 300 less than this n FAR better than this..
or else spend 700 MORE N GO for galaxy y..
i owned it before a week..it was a good one...but u feel a little disappointed with the features like videoplayer n, no options for camera as it is a stiil cam, the music players does its best if the tracks are of 320 kbps....sony must advanceits apps........the browser you know is an awesome crap

Another couple of vids, although they don't tell us much more - in fact, the first one's barely watchable due to poor camera work.
Either we need a good pilot for a demo, or the thing is inherently tame. A pity Nine Eagles can't borrow Alan Szabo from Align!

In the first vid in this topic you see a snippet of the heli going into FFF and even that snippet shows faster performance than what is shown here. Might also be the links are still on the short balls on the swash, reducing cyclic throw. |

The 120 SR seems like a very nice heli, a lot of people like it. But what if this NE 328 manages to keep the good parts but loose the pendulum effect that the mSR and 120 both suffer from? If they can achieve that, it might surpass the 120 on that terrain. Another terrain that Nine Eagles might gain some advantage is batteries. The more recent batteries for the Bravo SX are very good, so if the lipos for the 328 are also that good, they will certainly surpass the quality of the stock Blade 120 batteries, which I hear most people complaining about, not lasting many cycles, lacking performance, etc. So despite that the SR 120 seems a very good standard to look up to, it would be a little short sighted to say it can't be improved upon. Whether the 328 will do that, remains to be seen, but just keep it in mind, it can be done. |

17-03-13 Random customised all chrome big bike in Shenkeng, New Taipei City.
Letters from Taiwan is an online diary of what engages and interests me about Taiwan as well as a record of my journeys and discoveries in the region. It is an extended letter of admiration and gratitude to this beautiful country that has so hospitably been my home for over a decade.
Originally from the UK, I arrived in 2000 as a teacher and now work full time as a professional in the field of medical devices.
This blog does take an active, passionate and often partisan interest in Taiwan's current affairs, with particular emphasis on its history, politics and economy. I believe that Taiwan is geographically and politically situated at an important juncture of global hegemonic struggle.
The very identity of the nation and the peoples living here, and the ongoing contest over the definition and meaning of those identities is a field study in contemporary nationalism and nation building. It is because this contest is far from resolved that I find the word 'contingent' the most suitable current descriptor.

Welcome to the first annual awards for the best in genealogy software and apps, websites and blogs, magazines and journals, education, and tools for putting your family tree online. The prize? Bragging rights that come with recognition by readers of one of the most popular networks on the Web.
2013 Genealogy Readers' Choice Awards
About.com © 2013
Readers have nominated their favorites for the 2013 About Genealogy Readers' Choice Awards and then voted from among the finalists in eleven categories, ranging from genealogy software and apps, to websites and blogs. Voting for the 2013 About Genealogy Readers' Choice Awards was open from February 19 through March 19, 2013, with winners announced on March 27, 2013. The polls were audited and validated by our tech team to produce the final results.
1. Best Genealogy Software (Windows): RootsMagic
What Windows genealogy software do you use on a regular basis? Which one best meets your needs, from data entry and user interface, to source citations and reports? Readers declared RootsMagic to be the winner, although voting was very tight between first and second.
2. Best Genealogy Software (Mac): Reunion
More and more genealogists seem to be using Macs these days (myself included) and genealogy software developers are beginning to respond. With several choices now available for Mac genealogy software, which one do you feel tops the list? While several newer programs have made great inroads into the market, Reunion is our readers' favorite by a landslide.
3. Best Tool for Putting Your Family Tree Online: TNG
Publishing your family tree online is a great way to share your research with family and friends, as well as potential distant cousins. However, getting your family information online isn't always as easy as it should be. This category highlights the best family tree building tools and websites for publishing your family tree online, with The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding (TNG) as our clear readers' favorite.
4. Best State/Provincial Society: Illinois State Genealogical Society
A large number of genealogical societies have re-invented themselves in recent years, embracing social media, virtual education, digital publishing, and other tools to reach a far-flung audience. To keep things on a somewhat equal playing field, nominations were accepted for state (provincial, departmental, etc.) genealogical societies only. Congratulations to the winner, plus the other four well-deserving finalists, for everything they do to connect and support genealogists.
5. Best Online Genealogy Tool or Mobile App: RootsMagic App
Whether it is your favorite genealogy search engine, mapping or writing tool, or a must have genealogy or productivity app, we all have online or mobile genealogy tools that are just hard to live without. RootsMagic, the winner in this category is a companion app to the most popular Windows genealogy software program, so no big surprise there. Ancestry's mobile app and Steve Morse's Search Tools also had a lot of support from readers.
6. Favorite Genealogy Reference Book: Evidence Explained
What genealogy reference book do you pull of your shelf more than any other? What genealogy reference book teaches you something new every time you open it? What is the book that first opened your eyes to the world of genealogy? "Evidence Explained: Citing History Sources from Artifacts to Cyberspace," by Elizabeth Shown Mills, was the clear winner in this category, although all finalists are definitely books you should consider for your own bookshelf.
7. Best Genealogy Education or Learning Experience: Legacy Webinars
Whether it was a week-long genealogy institute, a genealogy conference, or an online genealogy course, what is your favorite genealogy learning experience? What educational avenue has taught you the most, or best opened your eyes to something new? The free, easy accessibility of online webinars made Legacy Family Tree Webinars a runaway winner in this category with About Genealogy readers.
8. Best Library or Archive Blog with a Genealogical Focus: State Library of N.C.
There are so many absolutely wonderful genealogy blogs available, that a contest that tries to narrow the field down to a top five can't begin to do them justice. So for the genealogy blogs category, I've chose to highlight the many great library and archive blogs providing essential, timely information on genealogy sources and collections, news, and methodologies. Congratulations to our winner — the Government and Heritage Library (GHL) Blog, State Library of North Carolina -- which received over 50% of the final vote!
9. Best Genealogical Journal or Magazine: Family Tree Magazine
Genealogical journals and family history magazines are a great resource for learning about new genealogy tools and resources, as well as expanding your understanding and applications of genealogical methodologies. Which genealogical journal or magazine best challenges your thinking or introduces you to new sources and ideas? Family Tree Magazine and the National Genealogical Society Quarterly were the clear frontrunners, with Family Tree Magazine coming out on top.
10. Best Subscription Genealogy Website: Ancestry.com
What subscription-based genealogy website is the one you can't live without? The one you turn to first? The one that gives you the best bang for your buck. Readers cited the wide variety of records as the reason that Ancestry.com was their favorite with over 60% of the vote.
11. Best Free Genealogy Website: FamilySearch
Reader responses were overwhelming when nominating their favorite online resources for free genealogy? This ran the gamut from websites with genealogical records, great networking resources, and websites that teach about genealogy records, methods, and sources. Over fifty different websites were nominated in this category, so all five finalists definitely have something to brag about. Congratulations to FamilySearch as the runaway winner, and Cyndi's List and FindAGrave for their recognition in second and third place, respectively.

Horses ingesting 0.5–2% body weight of trematone-containing plants are likely to die from skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle necrosis. Horses present with marked depression, weakness, low head posture, and increased cardiac and respiratory rate. Serum AST and CK are often markedly elevated, and serum electrolyte abnormalities such as hypocalcemia, hyponatremia, hypochloremia, hyperkalemia, and hyperphosphatemia may be present. Treatment is generally supportive. Trematone (see Plant Toxins) has been identified in white snakeroot (Eupatorium rugosum) and rayless goldenrod (Isocoma wrightii). Trematone remains active in the hay and in the stalks of the dead plants on pasture, so both the fresh and the dried form of the plants should be kept from horses.
Muscle necrosis may also occur in horses ingesting Cassia occidentalis seeds prevalent in the southeastern USA. Horses develop incoordination, recumbency, and death. Gross skeletal muscle lesions are not present, but histopathologic lesions include segmental myonecrosis.
One of 70 horses poisoned with blister beetles (see Cantharidin Poisoning) developed muscle necrosis.
(Pasture myopathy)
Atypical myoglobinuria occurs sporadically in horses kept on pasture, usually with no supplemental feeding. It has been recognized most commonly in the UK and Europe but a similar syndrome has been seen in the midwestern USA. The cause is unknown but appears to involve disruption in lipid metabolism due to exposure to a toxin in well grazed, cool, wet pastures. It occurs most often in spring and autumn and is often associated with a sudden deterioration in weather conditions. The clinical signs are sudden in onset and rapidly progressive, frequently resulting in death. Several horses in a group may be affected, although some may have no signs. Affected horses are reluctant to move, have muscle weakness and fasciculations, and may become recumbent. Choke may be present, and gut sounds may be reduced, with reduction in feces production, although appetite may be unaffected. Heart rates may be markedly elevated and pulmonary edema may be present. The horses do not show signs of pain, despite evidence of widespread myopathy at necropsy. Metabolic and respiratory acidosis, elevated cardiac troponin 1, substantial increases in serum CK and AST, and myoglobinuria also are common.
Necropsy reveals widespread myodegeneration in postural and respiratory skeletal muscles and the myocardium. Special stains for lipid reveal excessive lipid storage in the heart, diaphragm, and other oxidative postural muscles. Multiple chain lengths of acylcarnitines are elevated in urine or plasma. Supportive therapy including antioxidants (eg, vitamin C, vitamin E, riboflavin) and IV fluids containing dextrose are recommended. Mortality is high in affected horses.

Some Albany Tech students spent their morning giving speeches about themselves and the schools' adult education program.
11 students competed in the EAGLE competition, which stands for Exceptional Adult Georgians in Literature Education.
Students in adult education programs are nominated by their instructors based on their progress, attitude and perseverance.
This program is designed to honor and recognize adult students registered in Georgia's literacy programs.
"It is a recognition that this person is one of the best among their peers, they will also represent us at the state level, with a commissioner, the president, they will go to the capitol, and they will speak to the legislative branch all around Georgia," says Linda Coston, Associate VP Adult Education.
Matt Newsome from Dougherty County won the competition. He will compete at the State level in Atlanta in February with all technical college winners from around the state.

The VMK161plus is a 61-key hammer-action controller. It's the perfect size for the gigging musician or a space-cramped project studio but still has all of the wheels, sliders, knobs and controls to keep the most demanding keyboardist in control. Features USB bus power, 2 MIDI outputs and 4 programmable pedal inputs.

Comments about Studiologic VMK-161plus Controller Keyboard:
I just received it and I am very pleased with the feel of the keyboard. I wanted something that would replace my larger full weight keyboards when I travel. The size is much smaller than your average 61 keyboard so you might want to see if you can use a 49 key case instead. I wouldn't recommend a bag due to the weight but I am VERY pleased!!!!

These leaders work together with a faculty and staff advisor to manage all aspects of UACT programs from curriculum design to leadership training, to classroom facilitation to fundraising. Students participate in UACT for at least one academic semester, but there are opportunities for them to remain involved in the organization for three or more years.
UACT works with community partners to evaluate ongoing collaborations and to design new programs and partnership activities. We strive to engage in work that transforms our classrooms, our institutions, our communities and ourselves by rejecting the constraints of the conventional classroom and by making the roles that we play as students, teachers, citizens and activists more seamless.
UACT Principles
- Build a practical understanding of community organizing as a tool for social change
- Develop and practice critical and liberatory pedagogies and popular education while building learning communities
- Explore concepts of privilege, oppression, and identity on individual and structural levels
- Develop student leadership through student facilitation and overall programmatic participation
- Build student commitment toward social justice
- Build mutually beneficial partnerships with community groups organizing for social change
UACT is a unique partnership of UMass students, faculty and members of grassroots community organizations. We work together to design programs that build community, promote social and economic justice, advance cross-cultural understanding and serve the educational and civic objectives of our Land Grant University.

First, Gratitude {A Fresh Start}
If we do nothing else this year, if no other improvements are made or habits changed, there is this one thing that perhaps we could all use a little more of.
It's been proven over and over that those who are thankful for what they have, whatever that may or may not be, are happier. More content. Joyful.…

Impressive: 300,000 Birds Perform Air Ballet
I have no idea who the hell can tell that's 300,000 birds, but I'm running with it. And by running I mean flying. Just like those birds. Except less graceful. But equally naked!

KNYSZYN: Podlaskie |
Earliest known Jewish community was 1605. 1921 Jewish population was 1235. Effecting the Jewish community was the 1672 Privilege "de mon tolerandis Judacis". Living here were Rabbi Miszkinski and Rabbi Mosze Landinski. The Hasidic Orthodox, Conservative, and Progressive/Reform Jewish cemetery was established after 1750. There was a symbolic burial in 1970. Trzcianne, Korycin, and surrounding villages up to 20 km away used this site. Landmark documentation is in the archives of the Konserwator of Monuments. The isolated agricultural and forested flat land has no sign or marker. Reached by crossing private property, access is open with permission with no wall or gate. The size of the cemetery before WWII was 2.8 hectares; now it is 2.75 hectares. 500-5000 gravestones, 1-20 not in original locations with less than 25% toppled or broken, date from 1806-20th century. The marble, granite, limestone, sandstone, slate, and iron rough stones or boulders, flat shaped stones, finely smoothed and inscribed stones, flat stones with carved relief decoration, or double tombstones, have Hebrew and Polish inscriptions. Some tombstones have traces of painting on their surfaces, iron decorations or lettering, or other metallic elements. The cemetery contains special memorial monuments to Holocaust victims. There are marked and unmarked mass graves. The municipality and private individuals own property used for Jewish cemetery, agriculture, and waste dumping. Properties adjacent are agricultural and residential. The cemetery boundaries are smaller than before WWII due to agriculture. Occasionally, organized individual tour, private visitors, and local residents visit. The cemetery was vandalized during WWII, but not in the last ten years. Local non-Jewish residents, other individuals or groups of non-Jewish origin, and local authorities re-erected and cleaned stones and cleared vegetation in 1989-90. Occasionally individuals and authorities clear or clean. There are no structures. Vegetation is a moderate threat. Tomasz Wisniewski, Bialystok, ul. Bema 95/99, tel. 212-46 Completed survey 11 Aug 1991. Wisniewski and J. Maroszek visited the site several times in 1989-90. Interviewed in 1989 were H. Wandali and C. Piastecka. Note: In his book Jewish Bialystok on p. 81, Wisniewski states: "...one of the most unusual Jewish cemeteries in Europe. To visit this cemetery, proceed south from the market square in the direction of Chraboly. After you cross the bridge over the Haskrzanka River, you will pass the first intersection of field roads before a densely forested areas comes into view on your left. This is the site of the Jews cemetery; however, to reach it, you must follow the path leading to the left. ... several Jewish tomstones from the so-called "new Jewish cemetery," which opened around 1930. ... the well-preseved older cemetery, which was established in the second half of the 18th century on the town's abandoned yoral ponds and built by Piotr Chwalczewski, who served as Knyszyb;s sarosta...Today the cemetery is mainted by, among others, scouts from the local schools. ... the cemetery escaped destruction. ...the dams function as cemetery paths, defining the overall space. The oldest mazevas are concentrated in the western portion of the cemetery. [sic]" [October 2000] |

The Top Comprehensive Web Sites
by Cara Scatizzi
The Internet has become an invaluable source for investment information, tips, education and security data. There are thousands of sites that offer financial data. This comparison focuses on the best Web sites for comprehensive financial data coverage and tools. These sites offer portfolio tracking tools; stock, fund and ETF screening; technical charting; and educational advice. Each of these areas can be used in tandem to analyze and help select appropriate investments.
The sites listed here offer unique tools and data for investors, some for free, others for a fee.

What's New This Year?
This year we are focusing on the best of the best. While last year's comparison included 10 Web sites, this year's comparison includes only four. CNNMoney, Forbes, MarketWatch, Wall Street Journal Online, and Zacks were removed. While these sites continue to offer useful tools and data for investors, we chose to highlight only those sites that could be considered a one-stop-shop for portfolio tracking, security screening and data analysis. We also considered Kiplinger.com: While the site offers a wealth of articles about investing, their stock and mutual fund screening tools and portfolio tracker are very basic.
Lastly, MSN Money was removed because it has discontinued many of its Investment Toolbox services, including the portfolio manager and stock and mutual fund screeners. The site now offers a lesser version of each tool that works with any Web browser (in the past, these services only worked with Internet Explorer).
Services Offered
The comparison grid on pages 2 to 3 covers six basic areas—portfolio monitoring, fundamental stock analysis, technical analysis, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds ETFs, and other site offerings. The top section of the grid lists the Web site name, the firm producing the site, the URL address, and subscription price and terms.
Monitoring Your Portfolio
Web-based portfolio managers range from those that simply track the current market value of your holdings to sophisticated systems that can analyze your holdings, alert you to unbalanced portfolios, and more. Most investors want an on-line portfolio manager that does more than obtain current quotes and display the market value of their holdings. A more advanced system will offer current news on securities in your portfolio, follow the activity of the financial markets, and analyze your holdings based on asset allocation, industry concentration, and company market capitalization breakdown.
The portfolio monitoring segment of the comparison grid quantifies the key elements involved in tracking a portfolio. For a more detailed description of the on-line portfolio tools these sites offer, see the comparison in the July/August 2008 issue of Computerized Investing.
Most services provide a price snapshot that is updated either automatically or by manually refreshing your Web browser. The current quotes line of the comparison grid indicates the types of securities for which quotes are provided.
Many of the sites have portfolio trackers that enable you to get quotes not only on individual stocks, but also on all of your securities on a single page. Typically, these services will ask you to enter your securities' purchase prices, allowing the portfolio value and gain or loss to be tracked. Most also send portfolio price updates via E-mail.
News Updates
In addition to tracking your portfolio's price movements, it is important to keep current on news affecting your investments and the market as a whole. Being up-to-date on sector, industry, economic, and individual company news is vital for an investor to participate actively in the market.
To avoid an overload of news stories, look for a site providing timely data that can be filtered to match your investment decision processes. Make sure the site uses a reliable industry standard for news. More may not be better—too many news services can result in duplication of information.
Each site offers newswires at different subscription rates and varying levels of detail and frequency. Active investors may want to be alerted when news appears on a stock in their watchlist or portfolio, which requires a constant log-on to see if any relevant news items have crossed the wire. A long-term, buy-and-hold investor may prefer an electronic clipping service, which collects news stories that can be E-mailed and read at your leisure.
To set up these clipping files, you will typically establish filters that indicate which topics and newswires are of interest to you. Most sites allow users some level of customization in the type of alert, the notification tool (E-mail, text message, instant message) and how often alerts are sent (immediately, intraday or end of day).
The main differences lie in which specific newswires are searched, the storage depth of the service and the E-mail alert customization levels.
Message Boards
Message areas allow users to discuss stocks and investment strategies and, perhaps, uncover why a stock is moving in a certain direction. Discussions typically range from current news and chart-pattern dissections to emotional attacks on the character of company management. Yahoo! Finance boasts over 9,000 message boards; however, postings on many of the boards for lesser-known companies can be sparse.
Message boards can be a good resource for identifying some of the factors driving a company's current stock price, but they often contain advertisements and you can never be sure of the motivation driving a particular posting. Read any post on the message boards with a healthy dose of skepticism.
Fundamental Analysis
Researching a company's fundamentals is critical before making an investment decision. It is becoming increasingly easier, cheaper, and more powerful through many Web sites. Most of the on-line services offer financial statements, earnings estimates, and company and industry analysis; some even offer educational materials on stock valuation techniques.
The comparison grid indicates the various sources of financial data provided by the sites. The depth and breadth of the financial data provided by each service is summarized by the number of companies followed and the amount and type of data provided for each company. The sites listed here cover thousands of stocks.
Each service here also offers a stock screening tool. The grid indicates the number of data fields available for screening. Screening consists of sifting through a large universe of securities to locate a handful that possess one or more desirable characteristics. It is important to note that each site offers a different level of screening service. The free screening tools from Yahoo! Finance, AOL Finance and Morningstar tend to be basic and inflexible, but offer a starting point for investors interested in dipping their toes into the stock screening waters.
Technical Analysis
Technical analysis attempts to forecast price movement in a security by examining how the market price and volume of market activity behave over time. Technical analysis is dependent upon large quantities of historical price and volume data. Technicians normally use charts to plot this data along with derived indicators.
Each of the Web sites listed offers some sort of technical charting. Most have advanced modules that supply on-line, interactive charts. Typically, users will have access to a basic set of technical indicators and data that covers at least a 10-year period, as well as intraday charts.
The comparison grid indicates the span of historical data available to chartists and the charting source. Securities covered, time period charted, and availability of technical indicators for varying security types are details that help measure the functionality of the site's charting module.
Only two sites listed offer downloadable historical price data (AOL Money & Finance and Yahoo!).
Mutual Funds
Each of the listed sites provides free data on mutual funds. The comparison grid notes the source of the data as well as the number of funds followed. The data source often determines the presentation and depth of available information. Each site provides basic performance, cost, and benchmark data for comparison.
Screening modules and the ability to rank funds are useful tools and are noted in the comparison grid. All of the Web sites offer some sort of screening for mutual funds but, as with stock screening modules, the sophistication and flexibility vary widely among sites.
Exchange-Traded Funds
As exchange-traded funds ETFs have gained popularity, Web sites have been adding tools, statistics, screeners and analysis for these unique securities.
ETF data typically includes performance data and price and volume statistics; sometimes you'll also see holdings, management information, ratios and risk statistics. Investors interested in ETFs may find that some sites pay lip service to the securities while others offer in-depth analysis and discussion along with statistics and screening tools that match stock and mutual fund screeners.
In addition to the previously mentioned data and tools, some sites offer data on initial public offerings IPO and stock options. An IPO is the first offering of a company's stock in the marketplace.
Another technology feature offered by all of the sites in the comparison is the RSS feed. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and it is an XML-based Web-content syndication format used to deliver constantly updated headline feeds to readers. Most feeds deliver headlines, descriptions, and links to current stories on the Web site. It's a great way for you to be alerted when content that interests you appears on a site.
Analyzing Your Goals
All of these options require you to balance your needs, wants, time constraints, and budget. It is important to be realistic about what you are trying to accomplish with your investing.
If you have a large portfolio that you actively trade and require timely data for a wide range of securities, then a subscription to several data sources may be the best way to properly monitor your investments. If you only need a data service to update your portfolio prices once a week, you have no need for real-time data feeds.
The Comprehensive Sites
AOL Money & Finance
AOL Money & Finance is a free Web site that is relatively new. Over the last year the site has made a number of improvements, including adding technical indicators to its charting tool, increasing its offerings of portfolio alerts and adding more news sources to its growing list of almost 3,000 outlets.
AOL Money & Finance offers quotes on stocks, funds, ETFs and indexes. To access the portfolio tool, choose Portfolios from the navigation menu. You must have or create an AOL account in order to use the portfolio tool. You can create up to 25 portfolios with up to 100 securities in each. The portfolio tool is basic and easy to use. It tracks your current holdings and their performance based on the data you enter for purchase dates and prices.
Views can be customized with up to seven columns of data. You can receive daily alerts on any portfolio. Alerts are not customizable, but include the price and performance of securities held and news for your overall portfolio. You can set up individual alerts for securities based on price and volume movements as well.
Fundamental data consists of over 250 data points, a number of them unique to AOL. First, AOL provides short interest data, which many sites have stopped offering. Short interest measures the number of shares outstanding of a company that are sold short. Data includes current and previous 12 months of short data. In addition, you will find a five-year dividend and split history for stocks and up to 20 years of downloadable historical prices.
AOL has five fiscal years and five fiscal quarters of financial statement data, a wealth of earnings data including current and past earnings estimates, trend analysis, surprise data and actual historical earnings data.
AOL's stock screening tool offers 25 data fields for screening including price, volume, market cap, sales, price-earnings ratio, price-to-sales ratio, price-to-book ratio, earnings per share and earnings estimate data. You can view up to 300 companies passing the criteria. You can also screen based on user-defined or predefined ranges.
During the last year, AOL has enhanced its technical charts. You can now add numerous technical indicators, customize date ranges up to 20 years back, and compare stocks to other stocks and indexes.
AOL's mutual fund data offerings are definitely lacking compared to the other sites here. Data comes from Morningstar and includes only 50 or so data points on each fund. AOL does not have its own fund screener, but includes a link to Morningstar's Basic mutual fund screener, which has 18 criteria for screening with limited customization.
ETF data is also fairly basic, with about 25 data points on over 800 ETFs. The ETF screener is provided by MarketWatch and includes only 14 screening criteria. The screener is not customizable, but is adequate for initial screening.
Finally, AOL Money & Finance offers options data, RSS feeds and videos, but does not have data on IPOs or podcasts available for download.
Overall, AOL Money & Finance is a good free site for stock, mutual fund and ETF data. The screening tools are basic, but for those new to screening and those interested in creating and running simple screens, the tools will do the job.
Because AOL is more than just a financial Web site, you have the ability to create a customized home page with AOL data as well as receive RSS feeds from other sites.
The Morningstar Web site offers a great set of tools for portfolio tracking and analysis. Most of Morningstar's data is free, while the advanced tools require a subscription of $174 per year.
The portfolio tool is free with additional analysis tools for Premium members. You can create up to 50 portfolios with up to 120 securities in each (100 stocks and funds, 20 bonds and 20 cash positions). New this year is free real-time quotes. You can create up to four customized views with up to 35 columns in each view. Morningstar also offers over 30 different alerts for individual securities and entire portfolios. Some alerts are tied to Premium service.
Premium subscribers can access the portfolio X-Ray, which is an advanced analysis tool that dissects your portfolios based on diversification and allocation among various stock groups, sizes, types, sectors, locations and more. Unique to Morningstar is the Stock Intersection tool, which shows you the stocks held in each mutual fund and lists any overlapping holdings between funds. This offers you a better indication of exactly how diversified your mutual fund holdings truly are.
Morningstar's fundamental data includes over 800 data fields on over 10,000 stocks. Financial statements include 10 fiscal years and four fiscal quarters of income statement, cash flow and balance sheet data. Earnings estimate data is not as in-depth as that at AOL Money & Finance and is hard to find under the "owners" tab.
Insider activity, industry comparison, valuation ratios and analysis, and official SEC filings round out the site's stock data offerings.
The Basic stock screener is free and has 18 criteria for screening, with limited flexibility. Only the top 200 results are displayed. The site's Premium stock screener carries a fee, but is one of the best on the Web. It has over 600 data fields for screening and allows for almost full customization. The screener works in pop-up windows, which can get cumbersome. A great feature is the ability to view definitions of data points and benchmark numbers. This can help you find more meaningful data points for comparison.
Another plus to the screener is that it shows how many stocks pass each individual criterion. This is useful for tightening or loosening the screen to generate a specific number of stocks. A view is created based on the screen criteria used and can be ranked on any data column.
Morningstar's technical charting tools only allow for indicators on stocks. But you can view and customize price and volume charts for stocks, funds, ETFs and indexes. Charting with technical indicators requires you to choose "Chart" from the navigation bar, and then choose Classic Version. You cannot download historical price data.
Mutual fund data includes over 200 data points on over 24,000 funds. The free Basic fund screener has only 18 criteria for screening, and like the stock screener, has limited customization capabilities. Furthermore, you cannot save the screens. The Premium fund screener has over 300 data points for screening and works in the same fashion as the Premium stock screener. Data definitions and benchmarks are given and the number of funds meeting individual criteria is listed as well. Premium screens can be saved for later use.
Morningstar has been on the leading edge of offering ETF data and analysis tools. The site has a new ETF screener with over 50 data points for screening and ranking. The screener is highly flexible and lists the number of ETFs passing each criterion. However, you cannot customize views with the screener.
In addition, Morningstar does not provide IPO data, but does have RSS feeds, videos and options data.
Morningstar's Premium service offers highly flexible tools with a great deal of customization capabilities. The free service provides a wealth of data and statistics on stocks, funds and ETFs. While the Basic tools are simplistic, they offer a great starting place for new investors.
SmartMoney Select is a great set of interactive Java-based tools offered on SmartMoney.com for a fee of $108 per year. Stock, fund and ETF data is free. SmartMoney Select's portfolio tool allows for 50 portfolios with up to 50 securities in each. Data is updated automatically and in real-time for paying subscribers. The tool also sends alerts and can automatically account for splits and dividends.
You can set up price alerts for individual securities as well. The portfolio tool's analytical tools are all Java-based and are displayed in pop-up windows. The tools employ brightly colored charts and graphs to illustrate individual security performance.
SmartMoney.com offers free fundamental stock data, including 10 fiscal years and 15 fiscal quarters of financial statement data. The site is noticeably lacking in industry comparison data, but has a good (and free) comparison tool, which allows you to compare a stock's ratios and financial statement data with its largest competitors.
SmartMoney Select's stock screening tool has over 8,600 stocks in the database and over 140 fields for screening. A description of the data point as well as averages are provided. You can screen for data points in the top and bottom percentages of an industry or index and create custom comparison values as well. All screens can be saved for later use.
The number of total stocks passing each criterion is not provided. To customize a view, you must choose "Make Report." This takes you to another window with the list of stocks where you can sort based on any column and edit any of the predefined views.
The free Java-based charting tool includes 10 years of price data, technical indicators and the ability to add the indicators to stock, fund, ETF and index charts. There are no historical price lists.
Mutual fund data is provided by Lipper and includes over 200 fields on over 21,000 mutual funds. Lipper also provides its Lipper Leader ratings, which is unique to the sites in this comparison. The fund screener is for Select subscribers only and works the same as the stock screener. There are 50 data fields for screening.
For each criterion you can see a description and average, which is useful when comparing against a user-defined number. Results are displayed below the criteria list. You cannot see how many funds meet each individual criterion. In order to customize the way funds are listed you must choose "Make Report." This will take you to another Web page where you can edit a predefined view.
SmartMoney has one of the best ETF screeners in this comparison. It is free and includes over 50 criteria for screening. The ETF screener has the same functionality as the stock and mutual fund screeners including criteria definitions and averages, custom comparison values and the ability to save the screen for later use.
SmartMoney does not have data on IPOs but does include options data and RSS feeds.
Overall, SmartMoney's Java-based tool set sets it apart from other comprehensive Web sites. The tools are intuitive and easy to use.
Yahoo! Finance
Yahoo! Finance is a free Web site offering data and tools for analysis. While the tools are more basic than the pay-for-use sites, Yahoo! Finance is a great source for news, historical price data and IPO data.
Yahoo! Finance's portfolio tool is free for delayed data and costs $13.95 per month for real-time quotes. You can track up to 200 stocks, funds and ETFs in an unlimited number of portfolios. Alerts include price movements and news on individual securities as well as overall portfolio performance alerts. You can create custom views by editing the predefined views with up to 16 columns.
Fundamental data includes three fiscal years and four fiscal quarters of financial statement data. Over 200 data points on each stock includes ratios, SEC filings and earnings data. The site also includes a page on the stock's industry and competitors. Comparative data includes ratios and financial statement data.
Yahoo! Finance also has downloadable historical prices going back to 1962. You can search for prices by date range and view daily, weekly or month-end prices. In addition, the site boasts a message board for every publicly traded company.
The site's interactive stock screening tool includes 150 data fields for screening. The screener allows you to enter custom values for criteria comparisons. One interesting note: The compare to factors do not include "not equal to." So, for example, you cannot exclude a sector of stocks in one condition. A definition of the criterion and average data points are given during the screen creation process. Results are displayed below the criteria list in a predetermined view.
Interactive charts allow for various technical indicators as well as customization of date range, chart type and the ability to note splits and dividends. You can chart stocks, funds, ETFs and indexes with the charting tool.
Mutual fund data comes from Morningstar and contains over 100 data fields including performance data, ratios, fund holdings and more. There are over 20,000 funds in the Yahoo! database. The very basic mutual fund screener has 17 data fields for screening. You must use predefined ranges for screening, and screens cannot be saved.
The results are displayed in a new Web page and can be ranked by any column in the view. All the results are shown, but in groups of 20. The screener will place your screen criteria into a view or you can choose from predefined views.
Yahoo! Finance's ETF data has improved over the years. There are over 25 data points on each ETF and over 800 ETFs in the database, but there is no ETF screening tool.
Yahoo! Finance has an entire section devoted to IPOs. You can also find data on options and sign up for RSS feeds.
Because Yahoo! is more than just a financial Web site, you have the ability to create a customized home page with Yahoo! data as well as RSS feeds from other sites. This can be a useful organization tool.
Yahoo! Finance is entirely free (excluding real-time data) and is a good source for news on your securities. The stock screener is one of the better free screening tools on the Web.

"When I first received the cards in the mail, the date was printed wrong, and the lettering on the front was difficult to read. I used the live chat feature on the tinyprints website, and they quickly took care of the problem. My cards were reprinted with the correct date and they even fixed the color of the lettering, which was my fault (I chose a difficult color to read against the personal picture). Thanks for the great service tinyprints, my NY cards came out beautifully!"
"Was able to design card to the fullest extent possible. Tiny Prints design team edited my photo/words and made it look even better than I could imagine. I can't believe tiny prints was as helpful ad they were. They went above and beyond customer service. They made the entire process easy when the card/photo looked as if I had spent so much time."
"The card was just beautiful. I received tons of compliments from friends. The best part was that the cards were delivered to a neighbors house by accident and the company sent out a whole new order over night at no charge. I got all my cards out on time even though my neighbor did not get them to me for a few days."
"This design was perfect for the image I wanted to use. I used the color scheme with the green back. Paper and print quality were second to none. Everybody said this card was their favorite Christmas card out of all received. I will definitely use Tiny Prints for all future card needs."
"We loved the vintage feel of the card. It was done in more than enough time, reached us in more than enough time and was done beautifully. We again, are very happy with Tinyprints! Perfect card totally fit our style!"

We need to find ways to help Andy Prevost.
He is now 100% dependent on basal and bolus insulin injections. He has to inject up to six times daily. This has helped stabilize his blood sugar levels.
His pancreas no longer produces any digestive enzymes and he is 100% dependent on up to 540 prescription enzymes monthly. Despite the prescription, he still has malabsorption with steatorrhea a major problem. He had gained a bit of weight but is now back down to less than 140 lbs. With very little "fat" on his body, pressure ulcers are a significant problem. One of these pressure ulcers is a major concern, with the skin not healing and a gaping hole is now present. He has follow up visits with the doctor in next few days and we will update on that.
The costs of prescription medicines is ridiculously high and is creating financial pressures on the family. We need to find ways to help: the family has always come to the aid of others. They have helped many others with financial help, provided housing, food, and their time. Andy is a major contributor to the open-source community having created more than a dozen extremely popular open-source projects.
With Christmas just a few weeks away, and the family finances suffering, we need to find ways to help. Church groups have held fund raisers, individuals have donated on YouCaring.com and sent medical supplies and money directly to the family. If you would like to send something directly, contact us through the youcaring.com site and we will provide a mailing address.
Thanks to all who have helped out. We need to find ways to help ...

Has music piracy been reduced by services like Spotify and others?
This article on metalsucks.com caught my eye and basically the article sums up that the amount of music being pirated has gone down in the past few years. Not to say music piracy will ever go away but ever since I signed up for Spotify a year ago I honestly have not downloaded any albums, nor have I paid for any albums unless the artist isn't on spotify which isn't a lot
I pay a little over $10 a month for Spotify premium which allows me to stream it on my phone which is a data eater but I use it a lot my car vs. radio or CD; I really do enjoy the service and considering a month service equals the cost of one CD it is well worth it, and I most likely will not buy a physical or digital release unless it is super special or rare so my question to you is do you use services like this and has it reduced the amount of albums you buy and/or download for free? link to article: http://www.metalsucks.net/2013/10/07...-music-piracy/

I've been buying physical copies since I've been into music at all, though I certainly also pirated my fair share a few years back. The only time I used Spotify was when I was enrolled in a Rock History course for a couple weeks a while ago and we had to listen to playlists thrown together by the professor. I thought the service was cool, but I had no desire to use it outside of my class.
With me, the problem with getting any kind of music for free is that I feel zero obligation to give it attention. When I spend money on an album I'm thinking, "This was an investment. I want this album to have been worth my money, therefore I will give it the time and attention it deserves." Sure I do strike out every now and again, but I also find myself really loving albums that I may have otherwise not given a second listen like The Tenant by Ludicra, or Abra Kadavar by Kadavar or even Times of Grace by Neurosis. I feel a similar obligation when I recieve a promo- "This band gave me an album in exchange for a review, it deserves my full attention as a critic." If I do illegally download anything these days, it's usually somewhat obscure albums that are completely out of print, like the first two Impaled albums. Sometimes if I buy a vinyl record and it turns out to be physically fucked (warped, scratched, really noisy etc) I'll download a digital copy.
Brocas Helm/Hatchet/Exmortus/Midnight Chaser 11/22 High on Fire/Kvelertak 12/12 Exodus/Nails/Hellfire (???) 12/20 Neurosis/Bl'ast!/YOB (???) 12/29 |
Has it reduced piracy in a true sense? I would think so.
It it helping artists? Not really. the artists get a tiny payment per play, it's miniscule. It's legitimate only in the sense the artist gets paid, but not by how much. I stream and use digital downloads all the time, I buy CDs of albums I enjoy and they get added to the collection to gather dust - but I still adore having that collection because no matter what happens I still have those CDs, I still have access to the music if my laptop fails or my ipod breaks or the cloud/server/account fails.
Yesterday don't mean SHIT. |
I remember talking to a band who said they get like $0.03 per play on Spotify.
www.apocalypticdemise.com |
I would tend to agree with others that it has slowed piracy, but not really improved the problem.
Agreed 100%. I don't and will never illegally download music, but when I get a promo, I listen to it a few times and review it, and then forget about it unless it was absolutely amazing. And if it's really that good, I'll go out and buy it anyways.
