Droning on: Obama's easy way out
"I never believe it's better to kill a terrorist than to detain him," Brennan said. The President, though, does. Through an unprecedented use of drones to kill terrorists in places like Afghanistan, Yemen and Pakistan, the Obama administration has taken out a lot of bad guys. The President boasted of that during last year's election campaign. He presented it as evidence that he is tough on terrorists. And he is, for which we have given him due credit in the past.
However, there always is a tradeoff, and in this tradeoff we get corpses instead of intelligence. The President who famously said there is no military solution to the problem of terrorism is applying a military solution to the problem of terrorism.
Though it is nice to see Obama acknowledge that we are engaged in a war and not a criminal prosecution, his overreliance on drones has become a serious problem.
The President would rather kill with drone strikes and keep his hands clean than capture these guys and take them to Gitmo, where we could learn enough to, maybe, dismantle their networks for good. It's how we got Osama bin Laden, after all, as Defense Secretary Leon Panetta admitted on "Meet The Press" last week.
The Obama administration's greatest coup in the War on Terror came from the interrogations of captured terrorists by the Bush administration. But the President won't use those same successful methods to finish the job. Rather than risk being called a torturer, he just orders the terrorists executed via remote control. It's so much easier that way, for him, at least.

Dutch police arrest suspected pro-WikiLeaks hacker
Dutch authorities said today that they have arrested a 16-year-old hacker involved in the pro-WikiLeaks attacks on the Web sites of MasterCard and PayPal.
The Dutch National Prosecutors Office said that the teen, who was not named, was arrested by a high-tech crime team last night.
The arrest comes after a group known as Anonymous--a label that's been adopted before by activists who have electronically assaulted the Church of Scientology and the Australian government--organized attacks on Web sites of companies that have distanced themselves from WikiLeaks. Distributed denial-of-service attacks enlist thousands of computers, all making simultaneous connections, in hopes … Read more

Snow Angels
David Gordon Green, USA 2006, 106 min
The latest from David Gordon Green (Undertow, All the Real Girls), is a story of love lost and found in a small town where three couples in various stages of life orbit around each other in search of connection and meaning. When unexpected act of violence disrupts everything, the three couples realize how precarious and remarkable life can be. "The action in Snow Angels, particularly in the film's second half, is dark by any measure," says Green. "My strategy for dealing with the darkness was to cast actors who understand comedy."

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Comments about Sleep Wedge with Cover:
They are wrapped so tight they won't return to their shape, even after 2 weeks. Advertised as 5 inches and really only 4 inches. I will not buy them from you again.

About Me Midrange Shopper
I have Acid Reflux(GERD) this pillow does little to help with elevating my body as it goes flat when any weight is applied to it.

Product works great for reflux.
By Toopie
from Berlin, NH
This wedge works well with a pillow. I didn't want a wedge that was too high so I could use my pillow with it.
Helps with not having reflux.
By chas
from SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
I'd like it even more if the height at tallest end was 3 inches higher, for an even more excellent tilt, to be more helpful in preventing reflux while sleeping.
Best Wedge I ever bought!
By Moneydaze50
from Alturas
I love this cushion. Most cushions are much too high and I end up slipping down in the bed.

Aside from being one of the world's most isolated islands, Easter Island is also one of the most mysterious. A few kilometers from Chile, this island's history is also enshrouded in enigma. Because of this, however, Easter Island easily becomes one of the most interesting travel experiences in the world.
Traveling to Easter Island can be a journey, but this journey is not as complicated as you may think. You have the option to travel alone or with a knowledgeable travel expert. A commercial air service takes tourists to and from the island daily. Getting around this 160 square kilometer island is fairly easy and all you need is a jeep. As for accommodations, there are a few hotels and guest houses that you can stay at, and many of them offer a few meals per day.
Easter Island Culture
Easter Island is heavily associated with the Moai stone statues that are scattered around its shores, and the statues' creation is widely disputed. Many people believe that there were 900 of them at one time, and it took little time to create them all. Of course, this is just one of the island's many mysteries. Today, there are groups of these stone statues scattered everywhere, and they are almost uniform. Years of erosion, however, have left them with slightly unique features.
Aside from the Moai, there are numbers of masonry wonders. There are stone walls, like those found in the rear of Vinapu, that were created without mortar. There are also 1,233 stone houses that still stand on the island. Petroglyphs can also be found carved into the rocks of the island.
While it can be a journey to get to Easter Island, your arrival on the island will justify it. Not only will you be intrigued and fascinated by the mystery surrounding the island, but you'll also explore an island that very few other people have experienced.

Make Fresh Tahini and Hummus
You Can See Our Quality!
All Natural
Sesame Seeds have a nutty, slightly sweet flavor and aroma that is enhanced by toasting. Sesame seeds are an excellent source of iron, magnesium and calcium. They can be added to salads, breads, buns and muffins — or use the entire package to make Tahini (recipe on back). Tahini is simply sesame paste that can be used to make the Middle Eastern staple, hummus or use it in the cookie recipe on the back of the package for a fruity treat.

This is perhaps the most terrible hotel I stayed ever. The reception staffs are not helpful at all; Wifi is only available in the lobby. In the first night I, at 1 am heard super noisy music comes from the miami river (where a night club is). The staff refused to do anything about it, actually their suggestion is finding some earplugs and pharmacy. Thanks to the police who helped me out. The location is really good though. But this convenience does not outweigh their awful service.

A plan is in the works to restore millions in funding lost when the city and teachers union failed to meet a deadline for a new teacher evaluation system.
State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver says he's planning to include the $260 million in his budget proposal.
Currently, the governor has not included the money in his proposal.
The two will need to be reconciled next month as both sides strive to meet the April 1 budget deadline.
"We always are talking to the governor's office, to the speaker's office, and the majority leader's or two majority leaders offices. And I think they fully understand that we would like to see those moneys put back in the budget," said mayor Michael Bloomberg.
A judge ordered an injunction to prevent the state from taking away the funds.
A hearing date has not yet been set, and so far there are no talks scheduled between the city and teachers union to hash out a teacher evaluation system.

- Quick Facts
- Year Built: Mid-1990's through 2000's
- Housing Options: Townhomes, Single-Family
- Square Feet: 1700 – 6500
- Lot Size: .20 to 1.15 acres
- Tax Rate: 1.6400
- Schools:

- High School – Chapel Hill High
Residents of Lake Hogan Farms enjoy easy access to the Triangle and all its amenities while maintaining an authentic sense of country living – perhaps at least partly because the community, located off of Homestead Road, northwest of Chapel Hill, is a former dairy farm.
Lake Hogan Farms is a diverse family-oriented neighborhood. Families are attracted to the area because it is beautiful, quiet, there are nice-size lots, there are many kids of all ages and there are wonderful neighborhood facilities.
The 300-acre community offers a range of housing options: patio homes on small, manageable lots; single family homes ranging from the $300,000s to over $800,000; and upscale townhomes. There are 95 acres of dedicated green space, and neighborhood greenway trails connect to trail systems in Chapel Hill in Carrboro.
"We love living in Lake Hogan Farms. Aside from being beautiful and having lots of neighborhood amenities, we were surprised to discover how close-in to town we are via the beautiful biking and walking trails that wind through our neighborhood and surrounding communities," say residents Allison Wood and David Wiener. "The neighborhood elementary school is wonderful, and the townhomes are the best deal per square foot in Chapel Hill."
The neighborhood features a 12-acre fishing lake, a pool, a playground, a basketball court and tennis courts, and a clubhouse that Bakst describes as "the best clubhouse in town." Access to all of these amenities is included with the neighborhood dues of $65 per month.
Having a large neighborhood pool promotes a sense of community because it is really used. The layout of the neighborhood also fosters a sense of community because the kids can freely and safely interact with one another. To make things even better, throughout the year, the neighborhood has organized social events at the clubhouse, including music on the lawn and events for couples and children.
Jessica and Ari Lelantal, who moved into the community six years ago, say they not only love their home but "have fallen in love with the neighborhood too."
"The mix of single homes and townhomes, the trees and the lake, the tennis and basketball courts, the pool and the clubhouse, the walking trails and easy access to Interstate 40 and Highway 54 together with great schools and wonderful neighbors makes all of us feel comfortable and blessed," they say.
"We're so happy we landed here in Lake Hogan Farms!"
Resident Debbie Horowitz echoes those sentiments. "We have been living here for nine years now and we love this community. We feel connected to our neighbors, we have enjoyed the use of the pool, tennis courts and walking trails, but above all, this has been the best place to raise our kids," she says.
They have so many friends right here in the neighborhood that it is a social heaven. Even as high schoolers, they continue to meet up with friends to hang out. I appreciate that they are safe and nearby and use our house as a home base, so I can continue to keep an eye on them. As I see neighbors moving and new families moving in, I see the same connections developing with new neighbors.

The best beer cans for summer: Ten top picks for your beer cooler
Upgrade your beer cooler with these picnic-friendly craft-beer cans, including session beers, easy-swilling lagers, IPAs, pils and more.
Tue Jun 5 2012
It's been happening for a while now: Craft-beer producers have been opting for beer cans over bottles. Back in 2011, when Sixpoint first launched its "nanokegs" (beer cans, for the uninitiated), brewery founder Shane Welch explained to TONY the environmental benefits of canning and noted that because they are sealed without any trapped air, the contents are less likely to go stale. Either way, it doesn't hurt that beer cans are easier to toss into a beer cooler filled with ice or tuck into a brown paper bag. Here are our favorite ten beer cans to tote to a picnic, barbecue or rooftop party this summer.

Visions and Revisions
The Messiah of Stockholm
In The Messiah of Stockholm we have, for once, a truly intriguing mystery, quietly (and at times not so quietly) sounding those overtones or undertones of allegory or fable, of universality, without which no mystery will detain us for long.
At the beginning of The Magic Mountain young Hans Castorp was described as a "still unwritten page." Cynthia Ozick's character, Lars Andemening, although forty-two years old, is a conspicuously unfinished page, looking for an author to complete him; an "arrested soul" is how he sees himself. More specifically—believing himself to be an orphan of Polish origin adopted by a Swedish family—he is looking for his father, whom he has designated as Bruno Schulz, the Polish-Jewish author of two books of "peculiar tales" published in English translation as Cinnamon Shops (in the US, The Street of Crocodiles) and Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass. We hear that in one of these stories of "losses, metamorphoses, degradations" the father turns into a crab and the mother boils it and serves it up to the family. Schulz lived in the Galician town of Drohobycz, and was gunned down there by the SS on November 19, 1942.
Lars, who is most at home under his quilt, makes a thin living as the Monday book reviewer of the Morgontörn, not a good day for books, and not a very good newspaper. According to his fellow reviewers, Lars's trouble is Central Europe: he is "a Monday Faust," or "prince of the indecipherable," obsessed with people with names like Broch, Ki, Musil, Canetti, Kundera, Schulz, inscrutable authors who hold little appeal for the healthy readers of the Wednesday and Friday culture pages. In return, though he cannot admire their intellectual tastes or literary principles, or lack of them, he loves in his colleagues "their maimed scribblers' odor, pale and dimly prurient, a fuminess skimmed from the Morgontörn's omnipresent staleness."
Lars's confederate and rival in the search for Schulz and Schulziana is Heidi Eklund, an aging German of dubious antecedents who once lived in the vicinity of a death camp. Now a bookseller, she contrives by uncertain means to procure rare Polish books for him, among them Schulz's translation of The Trial. (Lars isn't too pleased with this; he doesn't care to see his putative father "in the role of the dummy on Franz Kafka's lap.") Her husband—for a long time Lars believes she has invented him since he is always away on business—turns out to be a skilled forger of passports; he gets people "in" and "out," and likewise books and manuscripts. Heidi has also procured a Polish teacher for Lars, a refugee professor from Cracow, maybe a princess, maybe a Radziwill.
Lars, as the author states or understates, is "untouched by the comic muse." The editor of the Morgontörn tells him that readers are complaining: "Your reviews are practically theology." Theological is a harsher epithet even than existential or Faustian or surreal or …

Because most people with hemolytic uremic syndrome are admitted to the hospital after a trip to the emergency room or following a brief phone call or visit with their doctors, it's not likely that you or your child will have a routine office visit.
However, if you or your child is experiencing symptoms of hemolytic uremic syndrome after several days of diarrhea, call your doctor immediately and be prepared to answer these questions:
If you or your child has an illness that causes vomiting or diarrhea, it's a good idea to try to replace the fluids that have been lost with an oral rehydrating solution, such as CeraLyte, Pedialyte or Oralyte. Don't give yourself or your child any medication to stop diarrhea if you see any evidence of blood in the stool. These medications, such as bismuth subsalicylate (Kaopectate, Pepto-Bismol) and loperamide (Immodium), may increase the risk of hemolytic uremic syndrome.

Metabolic neuropathies are nerve disorders that occur with diseases that disrupt the chemical processes in the body.
See also: Alcoholic neuropathy; Diabetic neuropathy
Neuropathy - metabolic
Nerve damage can be caused by many different things. Metabolic neuropathy may be caused by:
Diabetes is one of the most common causes of metabolic neuropathies. People who are at the highest risk of nerve damage from diabetes include:
Other common metabolic causes of neuropathies include:
Some metabolic disorders are passed down through families (inherited), while others develop due to various diseases.
These symptoms occur because nerves cannot send proper signals to and from your brain:
Usually, these symptoms start in the toes and feet and move up the legs, eventually affecting the hands and arms.
An exam may show:
Tests used to detect most metabolic neuropathies:
For most metabolic neuropathies, the best treatment is to correct the metabolic problem.
Vitamin deficiencies are treated with diet or injections. Abnormal blood sugar or thyroid function may need medication to correct the problem. Alcoholic neuropathy is treated with alcohol abstinence.
In some cases, pain is treated with medications that reduce abnormal pain signals from the nerves (duloxetine, gabapentin, pregabalin). Lotions, creams, or medicated patches can provide relief in some cases.
Clinical trials of new medications include antioxidants, neuroprotectants, insulin-like drugs, and aldose reductase inhibitors.
Weakness is often treated with physical therapy. You may need to learn how to use a cane or walker if your balance is affected. You may need special braces on the ankles to walk better.
For additional information and support, see www.neuropathy.org and http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/DM/pubs/neuropathies.
The outlook mainly depends on the cause of the disorder. In some cases, the problem can easily be treated. In other cases, the metabolic problem cannot be controlled and nerves may continue to become damaged.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of neuropathy.
If you already have a metabolic problem, regular doctor visits can help control the problem and reduce the chance of further nerve damage.
Patients who already have metabolic neuropathy can reduce the risk of some complications. A foot doctor (podiatrist) can teach you how to inspect your feet for signs of injury and infection. Proper fitting shoes can lessen the chance of skin breakdown in sensitive areas of the feet.

Businessman Buck Meadows spots Brennan Foster on the street and soon the two men are engaged in a sultry tryst. Buck feeds on Brennan's tight body, tonguing his hole expertly and lightly teasing Brennan's cock and balls with his tongue. Buck decides to get kinkier and gives Brennan an enema. Buck forces the water deep in Brennan's ass and then lets the boy enjoy the feeling of holding it in...and shooting it out. When Brennan has taken and given as much as he can, Buck rims his warm ass and Brennan unloads all over Buck's chest.

The youngest woman ever to hold the title of master sommelier, 30-year-old Alpana Singh is a wine expert—but she has a laid-back approach to teaching others about her passion. Nate talks with Alpana about wine and dating advice found in her new book, Alpana Pours: About Being a Woman, Loving Wine, and Having Great Relationships.
Ordering wine in a restaurant can be stressful for many people, but Alpana says you don't have to worry about pronouncing the name of a wine or pairing it perfectly with food. "It's really about just trusting your own instincts and trusting what you like," Alpana says. "If you found a great $6 bottle of wine, good for you, enjoy it!" Wine is the focus of Alpana's new book, but she also delves into relationship advice, which she says comes from her experience working in one of Chicago's four-star restaurants. For example, Alpana says she can tell that a date is headed south if the guy doesn't order a bottle of wine. "It takes a long time to drink a bottle, so if he orders a bottle, he wants the date to last," she says. "But if it is by the glass or if he orders beer, then he is just kind of like, 'I just want to get this done and over with.'" If your date orders a bottle of champagne on the first or second date, Alpana says you shouldn't be "wowed." "That is kind of a smooth operator move," Alpana says. "You are not the only one he is going to see that week." While Alpana says the way your date orders wine can be telling, the best date asks for your input before ordering. "He really listens to you and wants to know what your tastes are, and then he orders based on what you want," she says. |

"I had Roku 3 then has HD I don't feel I'm missing much"
on by Castleberry_RssPros + Streaming rate, video and sound quality are excellent
+ Menu was cool and simplistic and offerred many free channels
+ Set-up was very simpleCons - No on/off button
- No ethernet connectionSummary Okay, so most of the reviews here cover WHAT the Roku does. I'm going to get into some specifics about this VERSION of the Roku versus others.
I've owned several Roku devices, including their very first model. In the second gen line, I've had the XS, the LT, and now the HD. I briefly upgraded to the Roku 3, but ended up selling it, trying another brand of streaming player (I know... Bad plan) and then going back to the Roku by way of this HD model.
So here's what I can tell you about them:
LT: Basically the same as the HD with some minor feature differences. The LT remote doesn't have the quick review button (or whatever they're calling it) that lets you instantly jump back a few seconds in a video. I'm fairly certain the unit is capable of doing this, but they just don't ship it with a remote that has that button. You could always get a new remote if you wanted that feature. As far as playback and video quality are concerned, the LT seems to be the same as the HD. 720p max, no wired network port, no USB port, no TOSlink/optical audio port.
HD: As I said above, it has no USB port, no TOSlink, no wired networking, and maxes out at 720p... But it has a quick review button on the remote. WOOO! It's also a more tasteful black color with a purple stripe at the bottom, as opposed to the LT's purple look. In comparison to the Roku 3, once upgraded to the new Roku interface, it seems to be pretty snappy and works quite well. It doesn't support motion controlled games like the Roku 3, and it doesn't have the nifty headphone jack on the remote (which I never used anyway).
So... Do I miss the extra features of the XS or Roku 3? Not really.
USB port: I always found Roku's implementation of USB playback to be rather awful. It's fussy about files being encoded a certain way, doesn't like certain audio tracks, has no media scraper to get titles or information, and-- worst of all-- seems to lack the ability to simply list videos in alphabetical order; Your video folder will be all sorts of messy, because the Roku seems to organize videos in USB sources by last modified date, or something like that. Honestly, I got a headache trying to troubleshoot this problem, and it's a problem that Roku has flat-out refused to address since they added USB support. They simply aren't interested in this side of the device.
So what I'm saying is that the Roku 3 is lousy at handling local media via USB. This is part of the reason I didn't go back to the Roku 3 when I did come back.
Motion Remote with Headphone Jack: As I said, I never used the headphone jack. It's just not a feature I needed. I have a receiver that supports a variety of wireless headphone solutions, so the headphone jack was redundant and clunkier than what I have. I tried it once. It works. I hardly see it as a game-changer or a reason to pay more. The HD doesn't have a headphone jack on the remote and you'll probably never miss it.
The motion control is cool if you really want to play Angry Birds Space on your TV and don't have a dozen other devices to play it on. Otherwise, it's kind of a bust. So few games use it, and honestly, the game selection for Roku is pretty bad. They really don't seem to be putting a lot of effort into games, and games are the only place where the motion control is useful. Most games don't even use motion control, anyway. So do I miss it? Heck no!
1080p Playback: Here's the thing... Netflix**, Amazon, Hulu, and most other streaming services don't even have any 1080p videos to play on your Roku. In fact, the only Roku channel I know of that does support 1080p is Vudu, and those are the most expensive pay-per-view choices on that service. To the naked eye, the 720p versions look just as good on most TVs up to 60", and videophiles are going to hate watching compressed, streaming video anyway. It takes up more bandwidth, too. So bearing that in mind, chances are most Roku owners aren't going to be watching a lot of 1080p content, simply because IT ISN'T AVAILABLE. So do I miss 1080p playback? NOPE. I barely used it, and most of the time, that was in PLEX or via USB when I could get it to work.
So bottom line: The Roku HD is a great choice for most people. You probably don't need 1080p playback because the content isn't available on your streaming service of choice. You probably won't need the headphone jack because you've got other, better solutions for watching without others hearing it. You probably won't need the USB port because you can pick up a Micca player that handles WAY more file types, codecs, and properly alphabetizes the local content. You won't notice the slight speed difference in the menu (really, it's not that noticeable. It's not "slow" by any measurement). You can get your 5.1 audio via HDMI, so you probably don't need TOSlink. And anybody who's anybody has decent WiFi today, so you probably don't need the wired networking, either.
If you think that's you, then congratulations! You can save yourself fifty bucks by getting the Roku HD instead of the Roku 3.
As for me, I decided there is no all-in-one set-top box that handles streaming services AND local media via USB with everything I wanted (Crackle, Hulu, Vudu, Amazon, Netflix, Plex, Pandora, USB NTFS support, All file containers and codecs, DTS/DPLII/AC3 passthru, thumbnails, scraper, etc.) and so I split the task between this Roku HD-- Basically the best device for streaming services in existence-- and the Micca EP600, which handles all the local media via USB in ways the Roku could only dream.
In the end, I spent a tiny bit more than I would have on another Roku 3, and I got everything I wanted.
So my recommendation in this messy, all-over-the-place editorial/review is to get it! The Roku HD is probably the "sweet spot" when it comes to Roku devices, balancing price, desired features, and quality. The LT might also be a good choice, but for the minor price difference (if any) it's nice to get the better remote and the more friendly color for your entertainment center (unless you really like purple).
Seriously, for you cord-cutters out there: Get the Roku HD or LT, and then use the pennies you saved to buy a nice Micca player. They range from $30 on up, and they're pretty much ALL going to handle USB local media better than the more expensive Roku models ever will.

"Great Performance if you have good Wi-Fi Signal."
on by email@example.com I have notice no lag with a 802.11n network. The interface is clean and fast. Performance wise this is every bit as good as the other Roku boxes. 2GB of NAND Flash memory versus the LT, 2 XS & 2 XD that have 256MB.
Cons Larger than the Roku LT, Roku 2 HD, 2 XD & 2 XS. This means it won't fit in the TV mounts available. No micro-SD expansion.
Summary The review states that this is essentially the same as the Roku LT. That isn't entirely true. The Roku LT is made with 256MB of flash memory while the Roku HD comes loaded with 2GB of flash memory. Since Roku pulled the micro-SD slot, Roku saw fit to up the memory so you have more channel capacity in the new Roku HD than the Roku LT. (NOTE: The Roku 2 HD had 128MB NAND Flash with a micro-SD expansion slot, the Roku 2 XD and XS have 256MB NAND Flash with micro-SD expansion.)
"Does what I wanted it to"
on by Macfan424Pros - Plays Amazon content.
- Plays HD smoothly with my mediocre DSL connection.
- Amazon HD looks as good as most cable HD channels
- Bargain price
- Wide selection of channels to chose from
- Connects to older, non-HDTVs.Cons - Most available content is of mediocre to poor image quality (not Roku's fault, but limits its value nonetheless).
- No dedicated Amazon button on remoteSummary I would have bought an Apple TV, but it doesn't support Amazon. I bought this solely to take advantage of my Amazon Prime membership. It does that beautifully, and the small investment has more than paid off.
I would watch many of the other channels, but their image quality is poor in most cases, and some interrupt movies with commercials. So for me, it's an Amazon box, and occasionally Pandora. I don't care much about Youtube, so I don't miss it. My iPad is fine for watching that when I do want to.
720p is HD, and is the format of choice for a number of broadcast and cable HD channels. Most people would not see much difference between it and 1080p, even if there were much of the latter available for streaming. And, like the majority of buyers, my Internet connection would not support the bandwidth needed for 1089p anyway.
I don't see these boxes as an adequate replacement for cable any time soon, but they provide an excellent substitute, and may permit some to lower their cable bill by switching to a more basic plan. -
"Traveling with a Roku? Not!"
on by mlee6011Pros Looks nice.
I wish this could have worked for me.Cons 1. Cannot connect to a wireless requiring a password in a web browser.
2. Placing your credit card on file to create an account although you can *delete the credit card after the account is created.
according to their support page.Summary ROKU 2500X
I was able to connect to my home wireless so I've seen how it can connect.
This cannot be used when a wireless password is required through a browser.
I purchased this to be used mostly when I travel. Since hotels do not accept a password until you've connected to the wireless network and opened a browser window the current roku interface could never work. Roku allows you to enter a password when connecting to a wireless network which works great for home. I found too late that their support page mentions cloning your computer address to your wireless router. I have not tried this since I don't intend to start traveling with the roku, the router and whatever else this leads into. I'll have to stick with connecting my laptop to the hotel tv for now.

on by felixxx99999Pros Yes, Netflix and MLB work great.
Cons Poor playback quality on Plex avi and divx(Plex blames Roku firmware), layout for Netflix and MLB is poor/ugly. Much nicer on Xbox Live.
Summary Worth under 100 bucks for sure! Very happy with it! However, now that I can get my Plex to play on Xbox I'm beginning to question why I need it...

Veteran ABC newswoman Barbara Walters took a trip to the hospital after falling at an inauguration party in Washington, D.C.
ABC News spokesman Jeffrey Schneider says the 83-year-old Walters fell Saturday night at the residence of Britain's ambassador to the United States, Peter Westmacott. The fall left The View co-host with a cut on her forehead.
Schneider said Sunday "out of an abundance of caution" Walters went to a hospital for treatment.
New man?
As Bethenny Frankel focuses on healing after filing for divorce from Jason Hoppy, she seems to have a very special supporter by her side: hedge fund mogul Warren Lichtenstein.
"Bethenny and Warren have been great friends for more than 20 years, and he has really been a support system," a source told the U.K.'s Daily Mail.
The source quelled rumors that the reality star, 42, moved into his $6.3 million Upper East Side, N.Y., apartment. However, she reportedly stayed at the billionaire's place for one night with 2-year-old daughter Bryn "so that she and Bryn could have some girl time."

California's Underwater Parks
The Underwater Parks of California are located primarily along the coastline, stretching from Mendocino County in the north to San Diego County in the south. However, four of the underwater parks, Mono Lake, D.L. Bliss, Emerald Bay-Lake Tahoe and Lake Perris are located in the interior of the state. Nine of the underwater parks and reserves have overlapping marine protected area boundaries. For example, Point Lobos Reserve and the 1,680 acre underwater preserve at Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park also come under the protection of the federally managed Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and the state managed Sea Otter Game Refuge. Manchester State Park is the Arena Rock Marine National Preserve. Beginning in 1960, Californians began to set aside underwater areas for protection. The Point Lobos State Reserve was the first underwater park in the nation. The California Department of Parks and Recreation's underwater parks program was established in 1968 to preserve the best and most unique representative examples of California's natural underwater ecosystems found in coastal and inland waters. Our marine managed areas fall under the jurisdiction of several state agencies including the Department of Parks and Recreation, the Department of Fish and Game, the State Lands Commission, the state Water Quality Board, and several municipal governments. In the 1970's the federal government inaugurated a national marine sanctuary program establishing four of the thirteen sanctuaries in California. Beyond the rich marine resources available to prehistoric people and the natural resources exploited by ranchers, many of California's underwater parks are also shipwreck graveyards. The state's 1,100 miles of coastline have troubled mariners with treacherous rocks immediately off our shores for years. The SS Pomona, Frolic, Norlina, the British freighter Pacific Enterprise and many other vessels have been lost off coastal California and inland. As for the future of underwater parks program, DPR has more than 60 proposals in the marine and estuarine environments. Select from the right panel for more information on California's Underwater Parks.

This is one of my all time favorite dishes. I've been experimenting for a year now and I think I've finally got it perfect. This recipe is for an 18" pallera cooked on an open flame (a weber grill works perfectly). For a smaller pan and stovetop cooking half the recipe. Note: Some purists say an 'authentic' paella doesn't mix meat and seafood. I see it as a matter of taste, and most of the paella I've had from various regions throughout Spain has been mixed. I leave the arguments to the old men in Valencia.

"You don't lead by hitting people over the head—that's assault, not leadership." -Dwight Eisenhower In March 2013 when Guy Boucher was let go by the Tampa Bay Lightning, fans in the...
Issue that have led to Martin St. Louis' trade request may go beyond an initial Olympic team snub by GM Steve Yzerman.
Ten years ago today, I founded the site that'd later become Raw Charge. This post is simply marking the occasion.
Opening a four-game road trip, the Lightning face their new Atlantic Division rival Toronto for the first time this season.
The process of becoming starts anew for the former Lightning head coach, who goes to Europe for his next challenge.
The former 3rd round pick from 2010 cracked the Tampa Bay Lightning lineup last year and has quickly become a fan favorite for his physical play and signature beard. He comes in at #4 on our Top 25 Under 25 countdown.
Only one player from the 2004 Stanley Cup Finals will suit up for the same team tonight in Calgary; starting netminders, lineup notes and what-not can e found within!
On this Christmas Day, with only a week left in the year, we provide a repository of some of the best articles from Raw Charge this year.
The Lightning are one of the surprise teams of the early going in the NHL this season... Are they for real? A very cautious optimism (with a fair shake of wariness) keeps me wondering if it can and will last.
The shorthanded goal put the Lightning up 2-0 in the first against Florida on Thursday night.

RE: Maude Totsch
#26410355, Maude was born in 1886, Feb. 12, please see the date on the tombstone. Her daughters are Vemke or Vemka b. 1905 (now Vemka Beebe see the Mounds cemetery), Nora b. about 1904 nothing is known about her and Elvarie Rittenhouse # 94723190. Elvarie was raised by Andy and Sena Henrichs buried in the Friedhof cemetery and my aunt and uncle. I have been trying to locate Maude and Peter Totsch. I will contact the person who developed Elvarie's memorial and see how they want to accommodate both her biological parents and the people who raised her. Sena and Andy had no children and loved her. The "Cemeteries of Brown county, ILL 1825-1972 pub. in 1975 on p. 291 gives Maude's birth date as 1886.

I would also like to re-iterate that this problem is a recent one, I've had this graphics card since mid december 2012 and only recently (last month or so) has it been a problem.
The PSU has been the same from that time (I bought both at the same time)

The Crown Point Board of Public Works and Safety today voted three-to-nothing to suspend a police officer with pay, pending his termination, regarding the results of an investigation into the officer's handling of a police chase in May of 2012. The Times reports Officer James Poling in October submitted his resignation, after learning the results of the investigation, and in December, applied for an early separation incentive from the city, worth 13-thousand-200 dollars, which the city permitted to be effective in April of this year, so he could reach 20 years, there-by allowing him to qualify for certain retirement benefits. Published reports say the city has issued a stop-payment order on that check, after learning of Poling's lawsuit, which was filed earlier this month against Mayor David Uran and Police Chief Pete Land, and alleges the two attempted to terminate his employment because he objected to a Mayoral appointee to the Board of Public Works and Safety. The Times reports Poling now has five-days to request a hearing by the Public Works Board.

Although most doctors recommend synthetic thyroxine, natural extracts containing thyroid hormone derived from the thyroid glands of pigs are available. These products contain both thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Synthetic thyroid medications contain thyroxine only, and the triiodothyronine your body needs is derived from the thyroxine.
Extracts are available by prescription only and shouldn't be confused with the glandular concentrates sold in natural foods stores. These products aren't regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, and their potency and purity isn't guaranteed.
