Glenn Ordway earns his living by talking about what he watches on TV. The "Big O," as he's often called, talks Boston sports on "The Big Show," which has been on WEEI-AM 850 radio since 1995.
It turns out that the "Big O" has been watching the games on some big TVs.
The biggest — his 110-inch Stewart Filmscreen with Sony VPL-VW85 1080p projector — is in a 600-square-foot home theater adjacent to a pool room and bar area. Add into the mix some Boston sports memorabilia, some of which he acquired while calling Celtics games alongside legendary radio broadcaster Johnny Most, and Ordway has converted his basement into a 2,200-square-foot Boston sports fan utopia.
He controls that utopia with Control4 automation. Glenn can sit back in one of his Bass home theater seats holding a 7-inch Control4 tablet controller and dim the lights, fire up the 7.1 Klipsch speaker system and cue up his projector with MotionFlow, which Sony says reduces blurring on fast-moving content — like sports.
Given Glenn's job, his home theater is sort of like his home office — although he has one of those too, also decked out with audio and video. "Between the office upstairs and here, I work a lot in both places," he says. "No question that it makes it easier to write a check [to his A/V installer] because it does a lot for my business."
In total, installer Jim Shapiro of North Easton, Mass.-based Audio Video Intelligence says the 6,000-square-foot house has 14 TVs. That means Glenn, who lives with his wife and his two youngest children (7 and 2 years old) in Hanover, Mass., about 20 miles south of Boston, can move around the house while monitoring games.
He tries to watch as many games as possible and has developed an ambitious approach for doing so.
(If you're only interested in Glenn's electronics, skip to the next section or to the slideshow.)
Sports Viewing Meets Productivity
Although he can guess given the ebb and flow of the Boston sports scene, Glenn never knows for sure what his sports talk radio callers will want to discuss. So he tries to watch as many games as possible.
"DVRs, that's the greatest invention of mankind," he says. "I have five of them. They're all double-loaded so I can record two games on each one of them and I do them in different rooms so I can walk around."Facebook and Twitter.

1) Don't listen to the people complaining about the microphone being in the shot. You are not doing a drama, you are talking. Any talk show shown on TV (ESPN Morning show, for instance) always has the mic's right next to the person's mouth. This avoids a lot of background noise.
2) Challenge modes, if they play as the devs are gushing about, seem like they will be a lot of fun. I just hope I can find a group of people that won't complain and quit after the first try

Finally, after 4+ months of work, 30k is released. I'm not only exited about it, but i'm also relieved as well...after all of the upgrade probs,and other various issues...this IS the best BLAG release yet,and hopefully more people will convert to BLAG, and they will find out how great this distro really is. The next step being of course 40k...but that won't happen till at least 6 months down the road,and I have my doubts about it.
Also,I would like to give thanks to steve,jebba,jason,r7,and the other beta testers for doing a fabulous job of fixing/reporting bugs,and helping out in the irc channel.
BLAG 30000 user,it runs great...BLAG owns all distros, hands down. formally demitri_88

Three Cheers for all the Blag team for a great job well done :D :D :D
I agree with the comment that 30K is the best Blag ever and I've been using it since 8K (remember the nights at Comtech Jeff?).
We will be doing the Acid Test on 30K this week, to see if it installs on one of those IBM Intestation servers without any problems (we still have the same grapics card Jeff :wink: )
30K works out the box on my TP23, just have to sort Suspend to Disk and it will be purrrrfect.
Thanks once again guys for the best and I will repeat THE BEST distro yet 8)
If it hurts it's because you're alive.

i just love it, there is something different with blag. it is much easier than most distro, even fedora. i mean i can yum or apt-get my way around the repositories. this is great improvement to linux in general
rpm has been keeping away from distros that depend on it, but i can now do without it.
good job and thanks a million times

Ah 30k is so sexy and so damn quick. The best release ever surpassing my old friend 8000. I remember the old times Vasco. I still have my copy of BLAG7992. Thanks everyone for the time and effort.

This weekend was jam-packed with A-List sightings as Kate Bosworth, Carey Mulligan, Miley Cyrus, Poppy Delevingne AND Amanda Seyfried all made it onto our weekend's best dressed list and to top it all off we had a brand new K Mids sighting.
We felt the London 2012 hangover all over again this weekend as the likes of Jessica Ennis and Victoria Pendleton were all out in force for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards at the Excel Centre in London. Jessica Ennis (who came second for the big prize) wowed in a red Victoria Beckham gown, and Victoria Pendleton wore a black Stella McCartney dress with Stella heels. No surprise there Vic.
Kate Middleton made her first public appearance since announcing her pregnancy at the awards, looking a little green, but not to worry it was just the dress. She wore an Alexander McQueen floor length gown with a thigh-high slit and a slight peplum.
In fact green was the colour of the weekend - maybe stars are trying to dress like a christmas pine? Katie Holmes was spotted out and about in New York in a pleated leather green dress and Poppy Delevingne wore a particularly festive sparkly green mini to the ASMALLWORLD Gala Dinner in Switzerland.
Carey Mulligan was also at the event wearing a darling Valentino black and silver lace dress cinched in at the waist with a thin black belt. Amanda Seyfried looked classic in a Burbs trench as she attended the unveiling of Hugh Jackman's star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Freida Pinto wowed in a festive red Vintage Valentino gown to the Dubai Cares and Oxfam 'One Night Lives' Charity Gala.
Take a look through the 10 best dressed looks of the weekend in the gallery above and roll over the images for a closer look >>

Here's a little shapshot of some things in the shop which I am loving right now. Our new purple inlay chest of drawers is like a breath of fresh air...it's so pretty! I really am having a purple moment! One of my favourite quotes {by Virginia Woolf} which I had hand written and framed in an old white-painted frame - "Arrange whatever pieces come your way".

Here's a little shapshot of some things in the shop which I am loving right now. Our new purple inlay chest of drawers is like a breath of fresh air...it's so pretty! I really am having a purple moment! One of my favourite quotes {by Virginia Woolf} which I had hand written and framed in an old white-painted frame - "Arrange whatever pieces come your way". This quote really is wonderful. I love it!

A K-9 dog helped Vallejo police arrest a burglary suspect Sunday morning, police said.
The owner of a garage in the 800 block of Broadway was alerted by the alarm company that there might have been a possible burglary at his business, police said.
When he arrived, he heard noises in the garage and called 9-1-1.
At about 4:45 a.m., officers came with a K-9 dog and began searching the property. The dog found the suspect, a 29-year-old Vallejo woman, hiding in the bushes and dragged her out, police said.
The suspect, identified as Madelyn Torres, was taken to a local hospital for minor injuries, and was taken into custody.
Torres was booked into Solano County jail.

As a youth, Meng was one of a handful of children who were handpicked by the King of Tonga and sent to Japan to learn sumo. He would end up spending a couple of years there training and competing in the sport until the stable master passed away. Former WWE star Barbarian was another person that was sent with Meng.

Not too many comments, just a lot of open mouths when I come carving into the liftline and pull my foot out of the binding. (Have extensions on the intecs that come out at my thigh so there's no detecting a binding release).

On the chair with 3 kids; 2 Jibrs and a skier:
Jibrs: What's that board?
Me: Alpine board. (I tilt it up so he can see my HB)
Jibrs: Cool... I saw you earlier from the chair...
Jibrs: So..do you ride real snowboard?
Me:...speechless yeah this also a snowboard..

Girl in base area
"I have never seen anyone do that"
Confused// "you dont snowboard like everyone else.?"
"The older I get, the better I was" Old Guys Rule...
Clipping in at top, a park rat goes
"that isn't a snowboard"
I got a fun one from the lift attendant at the bunny runs (it's my first day ever riding hard boots... I thought I'd take it really easy and try and get things dialed in and explore what it really feels like) and the nice lady goes "do you know how to get... (on the chair lift) oh you're riding one of those. you must know what you're doing." so I smiled and said "well actually it's my first day on the gear." and she stops and gets all confused. what, nobody has a first day in this gear? *lol*
In front of me in the chairlift line is an eight year old on a snowboard (second run ever on a snowboard) with his mother on skis.
Kid: "What's that?"
Mother: "That's a snowboard."
Kid: "Are you sure?"
Mother: "Oh Yes! I am sure." And then she gives me a big smile.
Kid still looks confused and looks at me
Me: "Oh yes, it is a snowboard!"
Kid smiles and nods
Looks like the good work of others in the region is helping people understand that snowboards come in different shapes and sizes.
Yesterday in the lift line, a young girl took one look at my 168 Oxygen Proton and remarked to her mother, "Look at that poor guy- he's lost his one of his powder skis and now has to go down the hill looking for it"....
A carver's haiku-
My board's a scalpel,
To carve deep ruts in the snow,
Is my destiny.
She doesn't know that other one is at home and only 164 long!

My kit today - Deeluxe LeMans/Oxygen Supercross; from the liftie on the B (Gandy) lift at Spirit: "Rockin' the old school!"
The one question I get EVERY time I get my hard boot set up out is...
"So how does that work then?", I find it so hard not to say something sarcastic, so I just say "I have absolutely no idea". At that point the chair usually goes quiet. My work here is done... I can go back to my iPod.

I got some attitude for correcting some dude for saying "hey thats a monoski!". "No, its actually a snowboard!"
My son is a skier and on a recent trip to our semi-local hill he was on the lift with some snowboarders when I came down under it. Lots of "what the @*#@*& is that?" and "did you see that?" He just says "that's my dad!"

Concrete & Snow...
I stole Neil's response to the "Is that fun?" question: "No, my mom makes me do it." A quick laugh is needed after that one or people think you're farking nuts.
Had a liftie tell the random guy I was loading a chair with that he should ride like me.
Him: "He's almost touching the snow in every turn with his hips!"
Me: "Almost?!?"
Had a good chat with the random guy about alpine.
I was just inside the door of the lodge taking a break and this lady and her son sat down at the table.
I had taken my jacket and helmet off (so i'm not sure how she knew it was me..?) and she looks over at me. ponts and says "you're the guy!!" and she does her best impression with her hand straight out and doing her best to mimick laying it out and says "You're the the guy that almost lays down when you turn!! That looks amazing, we were watching you from the chair!"
It was my first day on Carbo Monster with the BBP, guess I was doing sometrhing right.
I told her she made my day.
last week at Tremblant, I was at the top of La Crete (green trail leading to some blues) paused on the side of the trail waiting for my son. A few seconds later, out of the teeming mass of two-plankers, two-strappers and pizza-wedgers, glides a hardbooter. He gives me a smooth and subtle salute to the brim of his helmet. Caught off guard, I give him an equally subtle thumbs up, and he's off.
I chuckled to myself that this must be what it's like when [insert name of favorite sports car here] drivers pass each other on the highway and figured that was proof positive I'm an official member of the carving tribe now!
PS...He ended up being one of only 4 hardbooters I saw the entire week.
A little grom in the lift line today says, "Hey Dad, look at that guy, he's riding a RECTANGLE!"
And THAT is how you describe a Coiler AMT 168.
Sometimes y'know it's going to be a goat rodeo.
Angry Skiier: "you're crazy"
Me: "yes I am"
Angry Skier:"you're taking up the whole run"
Me: "I can't help it, it's a 12m sidecut"
(Was not taking up the whole run, about half of the course had gates on it, I was keeping it WELL within the half of slope that was open)
same day -->
Random Skiier: Nice carving, you make it look fun (Something like that, helmet affects my hearing!)
Last week I was in the chairlift.... a young skier on the slope under me shout at me "Man you lost one of your ski!!!" pretty funny!
Walking to the lift, a car stops next to me, and the driver says "Wow, that's one of those new monoboards". My skier friend says "No its a snowboard". I say "New monoboards - are they coming back then?". The driver says "Yeah, they are".
Looks like he was right according to wikipedia and a few other sites. http://www.zapiks.fr/new-monoski-revival-2009.html

Yesterday morning I was waiting with my 6 year old daughter to meet her ski instructor. My 177 Coiler VSR was standing against a post nearby. Another couple arrived with their daughter and were waiting a few feet away from us. I heard the little girl say to her father "Daddy is that a fake snowboard?" Before I even had an opportunity to turn around my daughter responds quite indignant "No it is NOT a FAKE snowboard!!!" Guess she takes this whole carving thing a little more seriously than I thought! I don't think the other parents were as amused as I was!
Fat guys heart step-ins.
Sometimes silence is golden. quite often on the Whistler Gondola.. there are just stares the the TD-3 bindings, and I can just feel the gears turning in their heads, wondering WTF?
A Professional Amateur Golfer
I pulled in line with 2 teen softbooters ahead. It looked like they had watched me come down the last pitch where I carved some pretty large "S" turns.
One kid says "Is that fun?"
Me: "It's the most fun I've ever had" (big smile on my face and being completely serious and honest)
Kids: "So you only go forward?"
Me: "Well, yes and no. It's designed to go forward but some can ride switch although it's not really comfortable and is hard learning"
Kid: something to the effect of "so what does it do? It's fast?"
Me: It rails turns fast or slow, you can get low,...It's just a cool feeling almost indescribable when you're locked into a turn"
Kid: "Cool, it looks like fun, pretty different setup with boots"
Me: "The whole idea is to have a fairly solid setup from board to bindings to boot so any weight or input to the edge makes it carve a turn really well"
Kid: "Hmm, it'd be cool to try"
These kids were park rats too but were really polite and interested. It was a great exchange one that's seldom had between these kids.
tried out an old 185 oxygen today and went to the truck to take a screw off the 165 nidecker. As I'm adjusting the binding a skier gets out of the car next to me and says "so you got one for each foot huh." I said yep just in case the powder gets deep. He says Really? I could of easily had him convinced but I said no not really. he walked off kind of disappointed

Riding yesterday at a local hill, I stopped at the top of the steepest pitch to collect myself... it was quite icy, and I really wanted stick carves all down the face. This soft-booter screams up behind me and stops, and exclaims loudly "Buddy, what the f*#@ is that THING? I've got to try that!"
I've never seen someone so excited! He has my number now, and I promised to get him out on my loaner board. As we arrived at the bottom, I realized who he was riding with - two other 'famous' locals; one who is a high-level paralympic sit-skier (who is almost as fast as me), and the other who uses a genuine 1980's monoski. As we all stood there talking in the lift line, the sit-skier comments "We're quite the circus, aren't we?" Very fun run
A few funnies from this weekend:
1. I'm cruising towards the lift on the nearly-flat runout of a black run, aiming to go between a small group of snowboarders and the entrance to the lift line. This one girl is waving her arms like she's signalling a rescue helicopter in the Bering sea. I assume she's waving to someone uphill from me. She then steps in front of me and sticks and hand out for me to stop.
Her: "You have GOT to tell me what that is!"
- cue a short discussion about alpine
Her: "You realize that everyone stops talking as you go by the lift, right? That looks awesome!"
2. Slide up to the lift, jibber-kid liftie (hadn't seen him before, must have been his first shift that day) gives me an overly-dramatic look up and down with a sneer. No words said. A couple runs later, when there are almost no people around:
Him: (excited like a kid on Xmas morning) Whoa, that thing looks fun!
3. Another liftie was asking all kinds of questions about my setup. I switched from the white Coiler 182 NSR to the black 167 VSR as the runs got scraped down to the yellow ice, he couldn't fathom owning two boards.
Lots of positive comments all around, but those stood out. Now I need to buy a bigger helmet.
drifting backward into the mid-run tbar loading point, an mc-hammer stance boarder hails me;
mc-hsb: "here, Big Man! how do you say that wots on the base of yer board?"
me: 'dawn-eck'
mc-hsb: "f****** crazy s*** man. can you get them with sidecut?"
mc-hammer stance
I'm gonna use that

Historical Note
The Helen Matthewson Club (HMC) was established in the fall of 1923 by Dean of Women Helen Matthewson Laughlin as a living cooperative where self supporting University women could enjoy the companionship of others, obtain adequate housing at a fair price, and serve the school and community. The HMC was initially located at Oakwood House near the Vermont Ave. campus of the University of California Southern Branch [UCLA]. With the Fall 1929 opening of UCLA's Westwood campus, the HMC relocated to a new home at 900 Hilgard Ave.
On June 30, 1950 the HMC house at 900 Hilgard Ave. was "dissolved" and the property used for a new UCLA religious center. With the help of the Helen Matthewson Club Alumnae (HMCA) the remaining HMC active members joined the Phenix [sic] Club in Santa Monica. In 1954 the Phoenix Club formally merged with the HMC. In 1957 the HMC acquired a house at 820 Levering Ave. As a result of decreasing membership, the Levering Ave. house closed in 1965. In the same year, 1965, the Helen Matthewson Memorial Scholarship fund was established and administered by the HMCA.
Helen Matthewson Laughlin (b.1881-d.1960) served as the Los Angeles State Normal School Dean of Women (1911-1919) and the UCLA Dean of Women (1919-1946).
Scope and Content
Record Series 442 contains audio tapes generated by the Helen Matthewson Club. Files include one 7" audio tape and several audio cassettes of oral history and speeches by Helen Matthewson, as well as music.
This is an inactive record series; no additional University records are expected to be added.

Sometimes what goes on behind the scenes in a photo shoot is just as sexy as what goes on in front of the camera.
While shooting with Caro in Argentina, the look of the day required this lovely lady to apply baby oil to her body between shoots to make her skin glow.
Petter Hegre was kind enough to document this back stage ritual for us in full motion video; turning a common trick of the trade into an all together more intimate experience.

What are "the numbers" to run? You either go for more hp, or you go for less damage taken. With healer mana being an issue, and not survivability, I'd say the choice is pretty obvious.
I was just wondering is anyone has run numbers on Steelskin Flasks VS Armor/Mastery Elixirs for raids...??
What are "the numbers" to run? You either go for more hp, or you go for less damage taken. With healer mana being an issue, and not survivability, I'd say the choice is pretty obvious.
Survivability is still a huge issue (I haven't done heroics yet, but Cho'gall hurts heh).
Got money? Go with the elixirs. Going to wipe all night? It's a tossup. Poor? Go with the flasks if you're just going to wipe.
|Ex Tank|
I've been using the Flask of Steelskin so far but now, recently, I have begun to migrate into using various combinations of elixirs. I did not actually realize it at the time, but now after looking into it, this is also the most economic approach, at least on my server. The thing is, Flasks of Steelskin can still cost ~250g per pot, but the elixirs or the mats for those elixirs, cost only 3-6g per pot. So even if we wipe 10 times, using two elixirs per wipe, it would be cheaper.
If you have a herbalist alt, the mats for elixirs are also darn easier to farm. While there are still loads and loads of farmers on the prowl, to a point where it is really difficult to get enough mats for your daily consumables, it is a lot easier to get together 20x Cinderblooms and 20x Whiptail for 20 pots, than farming 12x Twilight Jasmine PLUS other mats for just one flask.
Now, for the actual data. If you are still gearing up, in partial heroic gear and no raid epics, I would say maybe go with the flask, simply to get your HP up. Once you reach a comfortable HP level, you can dump the flasks and move into mitigating damage with elixirs, which is what they are good at. Atm, I commonly stack up the following consumables for my raids, switching the composition based on the damage that I am expecting to take.
Prismatic Elixir - magic resistance
Elixir of Deep Earth - extra armor
Elixir of the Master - extra mastery
Elixir of Impossible Accuracy
Earthen Potion - extra armor
I will typically double pot with Earthen Potion at the start of the fight and save another for down the road. If I need to be hit capped for interrupting, I will use Impossible Accuracy, coupled with either Prismatic Elixir or Deep Earth, again depending if I expect high magic damage. Maloriak is a good example with high possibility of magic damage being an issue, and where I sometimes need to do interrupts. Then again, for Atramedes I went with Master and Deep Earth.
The best way to know what to use is simply analyze the fights. Look at your recount or skada and browse the WoL, check what type of damage did the tanks primarily take. WoL is an invaluable source of information for this, but also make sure you keep an eye on burst damage because WoL can easily report the tank taking 95% physical melee damage, but if the remaining 5% is magical burst damage, then you might want to rather prepare for the magic damage, since burst damage is much more dangerous than smooth melee damage.
I really can't believe how cheap these are to make. They are relatively expensive on my server, due to people mass farming herbs for cards.
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk
For me I do not consider gold an issue and look at the choices on a per fight basis for farm content I usually run a hit and mastery elixer since I have pretty much zero chance to die. Progression is a different story, working on heroic bosses I usually go with the flasks from cauldrons until we are pushing the last phase of the fight, at which point I swap to a mastery and either armor/resist flask.
Steelskin is god awful compared to mastery/resistance or mastery/armor. 300 stam = 200 item points. The flask is underbudgeted as hell compared to other flasks and double elixirs.

I have never tanked as a DK but the Arced War Axe looks better imo. More strength and Stam and you can always reforge the crit into either mastery or another avoidence stat you need.
Having trouble deciding between
Wild Hammer
Arced War Axe
Wild Hammer is slower (3.6) so has higher top end damage, but Haste which is kinda useless for a tank, while Arced War Axe has better tanking stats (lots of expertise). Which is better?

With the amount of threat that you generate from your moves you really do not need to waste itemization on threat stats such as expertise of hit. You really want to find weapons with survival stats which means mastery. That being said, we are left with 3 items that have mastery and only two of which are in heroics
The stats are almost identical except for haste vs. crit and the swing speeds. Haste and crit are both relatively useless for threat and will provide negligible differences, however the .2 second swing timer is enough to make me biased toward the sword of the bottomless pit (unless you are a dwarf or human, then go with the mace to match your racial)
Haste affects your rune regeneration, which in turn affects both your threat and your self-healing and Mastery (more frequent Death Strikes). In my opinion, Haste/Mastery is the ideal itemization for a DK tank weapon.
I thought haste only affected rune regeneration as unholy?
Think you guys missed the old skool option
HC Deadmines offers the Foe Reaper.... Tasty 2 hander with hit and tons of expertise...
Although it lacks the fun stats i rarely need to put any more exp or hit out into my gems so threat is nice and high
Lykopis - DK Tank - Shattered Hand
Honestly threat stats just are not necessary, at least at this point in the game. I have been avoiding threat stats on gear and reforging around any hit or expertise that I do get. In a boss fight, no dps has ever been close to passing me because as a dk you are constantly rune striking to proc rune empowerment. IMO, go for mastery on a weapon, the second stat doesn't matter too much as long as the weapon has mastery
I agree with rsorleans I been lamenting about needing hit / expertise and wishing a weapon had them both until I found the foe reaper which our warrior graciously let me have. I think cheesewheel is thinking about it in the wrong manner your not going to hit / expertise cap because you can not hold aggro your doing it so those tasty shields he is talking about proc a missed DS is a missed heal and a missed shield I used the foe reaper right up until I got my new toy which again the warrior let me have.
/love understanding warriors
But between the two you linked I think the Arced war axe is better if you are missing expertise also it has more top damage and more stam

I almost bought an expensive bag from LLBean just because of the name, and then saw one at work and realized the handle would be too short for me. I am 5'9 and have to bend over the wheel things around when I wear heels. The reviews on this bag made me hopeful and it's everything the description says and more. I absolutely love it! No more back pain from a heavy backpack! The handle is long enough, it's roomy enough to hold my lunch, laptop and work documents, and my exercise clothes and makeup with ease. I love this bag! It's a fantastic deal for the price.
S/H (via UPS Ground) took 10 days for product to arrive (CA to Middle GA). Rolling Backpack arrived in good condition - though in person, the pack looks a little bigger than the picture. I have used the bag on one trip and the backpack does everything I was hoping for: ample pockets including two outside mesh pockets to hold for instance bottled water. Pack rolls OK, and the back pack straps are comfortable - no complaints. Though I didn't specifically buy to lug a laptop, this backpack can easily accommodate a 17 inch lap top (though you will want to purchase a separate lap top protective sleeve. As pictured, the backpack straps easily zips into it's own little shelter, so that the straps are out of the way while using the bag as a roller. Overall, a very solid rolling backpack for the price paid. I would definitely purchase again, and I would recommend to fellow shoppers looking for such a bag.
At first the bag seemed a bit large but it grows on you. The bag has a zipped area to expand if you plan to carry around more stuff. I am happy with all the compartments and the rugged design of the bag and wheels. It is tough enough to handle the wear and tear of an 8 year old! The bag doesn't make noise, the zippers are easy, the pockets and seam are well put together and the bag overall is very sturdy. The bag is also well balanced meaning that when you park it it doesn't fall over. It is easy to roll around and the extension bar is sturdy. The bag has straps tucked away so you can carry it as a backpack - but it so much easier to roll it around. Very happy with this bag!!!
Since my purchase, I have had this rolling laptop for about 2weeks.Just had to indure snow, sleet and rain.Handle has held up to constant up and down,(due to stairs). Wheels roll across all terain very ea sily and smoothly.Carrying a binder, a laptop,2 phones,2 water bottles(one filled),and personal items inside the bag, mind you I have a lower back injury, I have found that I can still lift the bag by it's strap without hesitation or strain.At this point of my life, I am very content with my purchase.
My 4th grader asked for a rolling backpack because his books, lunch, binder, etc were just too bulky for his "regular" backpack. This rolling backpack fit the bill perfectly. There is plenty of room for all the items he needs to bring back and forth each day. As a few others reviewers noted, it is slightly on the heavy side even before it is filled with books. However, the inline skate-type wheels seem to manage this with no problem. The only reason I gave it four stars rather than five is because it has a funky smell which I usually associate with lesser quality items. So far, the quality is above what I expected for the great price. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.
hello, I am a sixty year old woman who likes to travel. I not live in a great City, Portland, OR, where I can use public transportation for everything. This combo bag works great..Seems every airport, subway or light rail has a flight of stairs. I can put this on my back then return to wheeling it. Love the long handle. Have seen a few others and they are 35% to 100% more. So have not put it to the test yet.
I travel a lot for my job and need to carry not only a laptop, but a mobile printer with me. Trying to navigate both using a regular laptop backpack for my computer and a printer bag for my printer (along with luggage) was killing my back. This laptop bag allows me to combine both into one space and there is extra room to carry other items I need. The handle is long for ease of use. It does not have any straps to carry as a backpack. I have only had it 1 month so the durability piece pends. So far, it was worth the money.
bought the back in March, wheel broke off in August. I use the bag at work for laptop back and telecom tool...light meter, fiber optics cleaning kit, cat6 tester, various async cables and connectors. Now I have to figure out if the wheels are covered on the 5yr warantee
I love the way they look and the material seems very strong!
This product looked different than on the Pictures. It was way to small and the material was not of good quality. ...maybe it works for students as said on some of the reviews. However, will not work for my daily commute from NJ to NY. I need more room and something that can last. NOT SAYING IT IS NOT A GOOD PRODUCT....JUST DIDN'T WORK FOR ME. Also, it took 6 days instead of the 3 to get the Product....very not Overstock standards!?

Summoning Animal: Panthers
Scroll Owner: The 4th Raikage
Other Users who have signed contract: None so far
Summoning Boss if existing: none so far
Other Summoning Animals tied to contract: none so far
Description and Background:
They are described as unspotted leopards with sharp emerald eyes and dark brown hair. They have a long body and neck with a short face, small head and a long tail. The hind limbs are larger than the fore limbs. The paws of a black panther are deadly weapons for prey. They strangle their prey by grabbing it at the throat with their powerful paws and sharp claws. In narutoverse these panthers are larger then normal. Large enough to carry 2 people on back, yet still move at incredible speeds.
dropping from the toucan contract aswell as my otter contract
±± Declined ±± Don't resubmit. Had you actually research this you would have found that Panthers actually is a group of large cats and not a species of cats. As for Black Panthers, they may refer to black leopards, black jaguars or black cougars. All of these were made before and your own attempts has been done before.
Katon ikkojin kouen sou Fire Style Individual Flame Streams
Type: Attack
Rank: C
Range: short-mid
Chakra: 15
Damage: 30
Description: The user exhales a plane of fire(horizontally), then by exerting more chakra into the plane. The plane of fire reaks off into 4 individual streams of fire which fire at different times. This gives the user the chance to use other jutsus in conjunction with it or not. If used in conjunction with (Fuuton heki hitofuki) the streams can break off into smaller flames whcih travel faster at the opponent.
Note: can only be taught by The 4th Raikage
±± Declined ±± Planes of fire? And from what I can understand of this, its similar to other techniques.
Fuuton heki hitofuki Wind Style Bursting Gust
Type: Attack/Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: short-mid
Chakra: 15 | + 5 every turn it is maintained
Damage: 25
Description: The user claps his hands together and releases a gust of wind from his hands. As the gust is traveling it "pulses" which causes the wind to restart in a way. Bursting and gaining power and speed. When the gust bursts the user can manipulate the winds shape (think of how lightning crakles, unsure of the word) If used in conjunction with (Katon ikkojin kouen sou) the gust causes the fire to do the same. causing the stream to break off into smaller flames which travel faster and stronger/more focused at the opponent.
Note: can only be taught by The 4th Raikage
Note: If maintained, no other wind jutsu can be used that turn
±± Declined ±± Similar to existing techniques.

Browsing the Open Compositing forums a while back, I discovered a terminal called stjerm. Stjerm was designed to be a lightweight and un-obtrusive terminal. It toogles shown and hidden like you see in first-person-shooters by pressing a button. Stjerm was discontinued a couple years ago unfortunately, I'm still hoping the author will pick it up again. That said, it is still a great terminal for lightweight desktops.
Because of it's status, Stjerm will require a special setup to get it to behave as you expected. I like Stjerm for about everything. The only thing that I need that Stjerm does not have is url recognition. Besides that I'm very happy with it.
For Gentoo users, you can grab an ebuild for it here. For Arch users, it's in the AUR.
Stjerm uses the
~/.Xdefaults file for it's permanent settings. However, some values are broken entirely, or will have to be entered through the command line options. The
~/.Xdefaults file:
! ~/.Xdefaults ! -config stjerm-0.11- ! ! Some of these values are broken or can only be set through the command line. ! They are commented by (!!). Command line arguments override Xdefault options. stjerm.key: f12 stjerm.autohide: false ! true* stjerm.font: DejaVu Sans Mono 8 stjerm.background: #181C20 ! black* stjerm.opacity: 70 ! range: 10–100 (full-none) stjerm.scrollbar: right ! none*, left, right stjerm.lines: 2400 ! 1000* stjerm.scroll: true ! true* (auto-scroll on term fill) !stjerm.shell: ! X shell to use !stjerm.bgimage: ! background image !!stjerm.mod: shift ! shift, control, alt, windows, none * !!stjerm.keymod: control+f12 !!stjerm.foreground: gray ! base font color !!stjerm.allbold: false ! true * !!stjerm.border: thick ! thin, thick, none * !!sjterm.width: 519 ! in pixels !!stjerm.height: 600 !!stjerm.position: bottomleft ! top*, bottom, left, right !!stjerm.showtab: two ! never*, one, always !!stjerm.tabpos: top ! bottom*, top, left, right !!stjerm.tablabel: 1 ! term* !!stjerm.tabfill: false ! true* (tab spans window?) !!stjerm.color0: #181C20 ! black - regular !!stjerm.color1: #A44245 ! red !!stjerm.color2: #00BF00 ! green !!stjerm.color3: #BBAD5B ! yellow !!stjerm.color4: #2B76C7 ! blue !!stjerm.color5: #8B56A3 ! purple !!stjerm.color6: #5BCEE4 ! cyan !!stjerm.color7: #D4D7D0 ! white !!stjerm.color8: #525952 ! black - bold !!stjerm.color9: #A44245 ! red !!stjerm.color10: #37A42B ! green !!stjerm.color11: #C4C29B ! yellow !!stjerm.color12: #2B76C7 ! blue !!stjerm.color13: #8B56A3 ! purple !!stjerm.color14: #71AAB3 ! cyan !!stjerm.color15: #EAEAEA ! white !!stjerm.color16: #2e3436 ! needed because of bug
For command line arguments, it works best to put them in a
.desktop file so that it appears in the menu. Then it is easy to start through there or through autostart options. A sample
stjerm.desktop file:
[Desktop Entry] Name=Stjerm GenericName=Stjerm Terminal Type=Application Categories=Utility;TerminalEmulator; Exec=stjerm -ah false -p topright -s right -tf false -w 501 -h 300 -ab true -b thin -fg AEAEAE -c0 181C20 -c1 A44245 -c2 00BF00 -c3 C8C87A -c4 2B76C7 -c5 8B56A3 -c6 5BCEE4 -c7 D4D7D0 -c8 525952 -c9 A44245 -c10 37A42B -c11 CFCF91 -c12 2B76C7 -c13 8B56A3 -c14 71AAB3 -c15 EAEAEA -c16 2e3436 Icon=utilities-terminal Terminal=false
Put the
stjerm.desktop file in
~/.local/share/applications/ to have it show up in the menu. To have Stjerm load when you login, link it to
~/.config/autostart/ (should work with most desktop environments):
ln -s ~/.local/share/applications/stjerm.desktop ~/.config/autostart/
I discovered that stjerm autohide function found me pressing the shortcut key often to unhide it, so I set
-ah false so that the terminal stays on top. You can define your own terminal colors too. I tend to use slightly faded out colors to be easy on the eyes. The colors for reference:
- new tab: ctrl-shift t
- close tab: ctrl-shift w
- next tab: ctrl-shift pageup
- previous tab: ctrl-shift pagedown
- exit: ctrl-shift q
A few more details about stjerm can be found in the man page.

Rock Hill businessman arrested
For second time on tax charges
A Rock Hill businessman who was arrested less than a month ago for operating his brick-selling business without a retail sales license is in jail again today after South Carolina Department of Revenue investigators arrested him for the second time on the same charge.
David N. Jerolmon, owner of Brick Yard LTD, 148 Old Rawlinson Road, is being held at the York County Detention Center pending a bond hearing. Revenue Department investigators arrested Jerolmon Nov. 24 for operating his business without a retail sales license. Jerolmon was arrested again today after the Department discovered he continued to operate his business following his November arrest. Jerolmon owns a business that sells bricks and brick-laying equipment.
The Revenue Department revoked Jerolmon's retail sales license last August after the Department accused him of failing to pay state sales tax he collected in his business transactions. Jerolmon is facing up to 30 days in jail if convicted of the latest charge and could face additional jail time for his previous arrest.
The York County Sheriff's Department assisted the Revenue Department in Jerolmon's arrest today.

Metal information and dimensions
Diamond total weight: 1 carat(s) TW
All weights and measurements are approximate and may vary slightly from the listed information. T.W. (total weight) is approximate. 1 carat T.W. may be 0.95 to 1.05 carat. Treatment code N. See Treatment Guide for further information.
Click here for ring sizing guide
I bought this as an engagement ring for my now fianc�. When I opened the case I saw that the diamond had two huge flaws that were visible with the naked eye. I know that this diamond is rather inexpensive for a 1 ct. ring but I thought it should look more like the picture. Had I went the regular route and bought from a jeweler, at least I would have had the opportunity to chose which diamond was more suitable for the money I spent. I saw that the return policy was rather stiff and I'm pretty much stuck with this diamond. The only consolation was that originally I was worried that I might get a phony diamond. The flaws proved to me that the diamond was real. If you need a cheap diamond ring and don't care for the quality whatsoever, this one is for you.
