The North Face Clothing and Gear
Best Sellers
User Reviews of Products
I bought a size 10 which ended up being a bit too being as I am normally an 8, but I often find these kinds of pants sit too high and awkward hence the larger size. I should have got the 8 though as the ones I bought were too long and ended up dragging in the mud. But thank goodness for the ability to adjust to a Capri or shorts which was perfect for the warmer days, and also the raw string to hold them up a bit. It was very water resistant and had no problem staying dry. And being so lightweight I could put tights underneath to keep me warm on the cold days. Very happy with these North Face pants!
I really like this North Face vest. My only disappointment was that it looks like a dark grey than a true black. But, I loved the feel and for the excellent price it is awesome. Shipping was very fast.
This is a very nice North Face jacket. It's just what I was looking for in a shell for skiing, it has enough room to layer beneath and move around, plus very waterproof so makes a nice rain jacket on it's own. size and color run true. Very great value!
These North Face boots are nice but run large, you should order at least 1 size smaller
Fast shipping!! I love this North Face vest!! Love the light weight of the vest. True to size.
This North Face tee is true to size, pretty color, and soft. Perfect. Oh, and very fast shipping!
The fit is perfect on this North Face vest, it is not bulky and is longer through the torso which I like. Great to stay warmer during the Fall :)
Bought this North Face hoodie for my daughter and she loves it.
As a general rule, I thought that North Face tended to run a little bit small, so I originally ordered a Medium. But, when it came in and I tried it on, it was way too big and too long. I returned it and ordered the Small, which fit perfectly. This style is made a little bit longer than some brands do, but I like that. Overall, I think this was a good purchase and will be great for fall in Oklahoma.
I originally tried this vest on at the north face store and knew I had to have it. At the store it was retailing for $110. After ordering this vest from Peter Glenn for much less I am happy with the price and the quality. I highly recommend this product and ordering it from this website. It is prefect for fall in the north east.

2006 Saab 9-7x Recalls
Fluid may enter the driver's door module, causing corrosion that could result in a short circuit in the door module. A short circuit may cause the power door lock and power window switches to function intermittently or become inoperative. The short may also cause overheating, which could melt components of the door module, producing an odor, smoke, or a fire. Dealers will inspect the driver's door module, if it is functioning correctly, a protective coating will be applied. If the module is not functioning correctly, it will be replaced. The GM recall number is 12180.
Vehicles first sold, or currently registered, in certain states where salt is used to de-ice the roads are being recalled because fluid may enter the driver's door module, causing corrosion that could result in a short in the circuit board. A short may cause the power door lock and power window switches to function intermittently or become inoperative. The short may also cause overheating, which could melt components of the door module, producing an odor, smoke, or a fire. As of this time, the remedy plan is still being finalized and a notification schedule has not been determined. The GM recall number is 12180.
2006 Saab 9-7x Reviews
Had an '01 Lexus RX300 before this. I like the ride and handling in the Trollblazer much better. This is a really underrated vehicle. It's built on the GMT 360 platform like the Tailblazer and Envoy (and others), but the handling and ride were modified by Saab engineers. It sitts about 1 inch lower. The interior is excellent! It has proven to be a very solid car. The only significant i...

Siemens to implement smart grid project in Vermont
Siemens has been selected by the Burlington Electric Department (BED), a municipal department of the City of Burlington in Vermont, US for the sale and implementation of the eMeter EnergyIP meter data management platform.
BED and several other Vermont utilities partnered with the state of Vermont to secure Smart Grid Investment Grant funding through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
The first phase of the BED smart grid project kicked off in mid-2011 with requirements-gathering workshops to help frame the integration work.
The second phase will include meter-to-cash functionality, advanced billing functionality, and the ability to improve operational efficiencies through reduced truck rolls and better outage management.
BED also has future plans to implement the eMeter EnergyEngage consumer web portal and new energy efficiency programs.
The Siemens Smart Grid Division provides products and solutions for flexible electrical network infrastructures.

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals assistant Freddie Kitchens cleared for training camp
According to ESPN.com's Mike Sando, Arizona Cardinals QB coach Freddie Kitchens has been cleared by doctors for training camp.
Kitchens has been out since experience chest pains during a June 4 practice; an exam showed a defect in his aorta that required surgery.
"Freddie is doing great," Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said Monday. "Doctors have cleared him to come to work. It's amazing. He hit a hurdle last week and cleared it. He really looks good, sounds good and he's on a treadmill two or three times a day."
The 38-year-old Kitchens started with the Cardinals in 2007 as the tight ends coach on Ken Whisenhunt's staff, and was moved to quarterbacks coach by Bruce Arians.

Research Legal Advice > Corporate / Incorporation > Someone misusing my name in a non profit organi...
I was one of the two incorporators of a non profit organization incorporated in CA. I left the non profit and the other incorporator has formed board (and is using the nonprofit for his own personal fund raising benefits). But he is continuing to list me and my wife as founder of organization. He is also using an event that we held long before the non profit was formed as part of the non profit on a website.
We don't want to be associated with this non profit in any way. but he is continuing to misled people calling us founders and listing our names and images in a website.
I have sent him a written email requesting to remove our names and images from non profit. What can we do if he continues to use our names and images as founders to misled people and for his own personal benefit
First you have a lawyer write the letter and perhaps it will have more impact.
After that, depending on your budget, you may wish to contact the Secretary of State or think about a civil action. I hope you never get to the last step, and it should not be necessary.
You can sue for misappropriation, unfair business practices, etc. Talk to an attorney.
I would suggest contacting the CA Attorney General which has oversight over charities based in CA (Registry of Charitable Trusts).

We've heard about Google Glasses. And we've heard about Apple iWatch. And yes, we've heard about people embedding cellphones into shoes [1]. Once again, the term "wearable computing" is becoming a hot topic in news and literatures. Some have even announced that the age of wearable technology is here [2]. The world is surely changing fast. Aren't we still debating who makes the best smartphones and the best tablets? What's going on here?
The foreseeable booming of wearable computing is just another chapter of the unstoppable fusion process between cyber space and reality. Eventually, machine computing will become ubiquitous, and the boundary between human bodies and devices will fade away. This is a vision shared by many scientists, innovators, entrepreneurs and Hollywood writers. It's becoming a reality faster than we might have expected. Devices will no longer be just peripheral augmentations, but be inextricably intertwined with human lives.
Then, what's stopping mobile phones and tablets to play such roles? It turns out to be something simple - it's because we are "using" these devices. And because we are "using" the devices, we are unconsciously rejecting these devices from being part of ourselves. After all, "using" tools is not a foreign concept to us, and we intuitively know that tools are not part of us. However, the way we interact with a wristwatch is rather different. First, we rarely think "let me use my watch to look up time." We simply think, "Let me look up time (by looking at my watch)." The difference is subtle, however, a significant one in the way that we are not engaging an explicit "use" action, but a natural "look" action, which is an rudimentary function of our body. Second, we have to look out for battery consumption of mobile devices to keep them operational. Just as we don't consciously manage our body parts, the simple fact that we have to care about availability of these extra capabilities reminds us of the alien nature of these devices. On the other hand, we never turn off our watches, nor do our watches go into sleep mode by themselves. The functionalities provided by our watches are always available to us, making them natural augmentations of our own capabilities.
A wearable device is not a brand-new concept [3]; however, the term gets a new twist at the dawn of cloud computing. In this new word, wearable devices are connected devices. The characteristics of cloud and devices make them a perfect match: Cloud extends the capability of devices by providing infinite processing power, unlimited storage, and unparalleled opportunities for collaboration among devices. On the other hand, devices supplement cloud by bringing contextual relevancy, data collection, and everywhere access to the table.
Cloud is highly available, which means it remains "indifferent" regardless of where, when, or who is using the service. A search for "the best Italian restaurants" around the globe is rarely useful. However, when you issue the same search from your device, the search criteria can be enriched by contextual information - is the restaurant nearby based on your geo-location? Is the restaurant currently open based on current day and time? Is it within your price range based on your spending history? The list goes on and on, and you automatically get much more fine-tuned, personalized results simply because of the personal attachment provided by the device. In other words, devices make cloud services relevant to real lives.
Devices are up close and personal, which means they are seriously "tunnel-visioned." For example, a thermometer reports only temperature readings. Without cross references with other data such as location and time, the reading is barely useful by itself - 40 °C in a teapot and 40 °C on a forehead have very different implications. Even with more powerful devices such as mobile phones, social attributes of their owners can't be captured by the devices alone. Humans are social animals. Being able to reflect on the rich social contexts is a very important capability of mobile phones acquired only when they are connected to cloud. Let's go back to the restaurant example: with the assistance of cloud, your mobile phones are able to tell you how others think about the restaurant; You'll be able to query if the restaurant has enough seating capacity for your party; you may reserve seats or place your orders directly; and you can take a picture of your dish and show it off to your friends.
At the business level, devices and cloud have interleaved connections as well. Cloud services follow a very different business model compared with what is for traditional software. Traditional software is a high-margin industry, while cloud services are a high-volume-low-margin industry. For cloud platform to really prosper, it has to build up the critical mass. The scale of this critical mass exceeds all the scales traditional software vendors can ever imagine. Cloud services need to reach out to a large number of clients simply to keep the business model viable. Here we are not talking about numbers in hundreds or thousands. Instead, we are looking at the scale of millions or even billions. How to reach this number? Cloud platform vendors need to look beyond PCs, beyond tablets, and beyond smartphones. They need to make cloud ubiquitous. They need to reach out to every aspects of human lives. Hence, they will be the deciding force that finally merge the cyber space and reality together.
Just as I won't be surprised if Google makes a Google Jacket, or Apple makes an iCollar for dogs, I won't be surprised if your refrigerator automatically orders some meatballs for you because it thinks you are probably going to make pasta tonight. I can easily imagine your water bottle follows you around when you jog through the park. Devices and cloud are perfect together, and their love story has just began.

Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Hunter, Chief Scientist & Technology Evangelist at Greenwave Systems, examined three key elements that together will drive mass adoption of the IoT before the end of 2015. The first element is the recent advent of robust open source protocols (like AllJoyn and WebRTC) that facilitate M2M communication. The second is broad availability of flexible, cost-effective storage designed to handle the massive surge in back-end data in a world where timely analytics is e...

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Illinois farmers eligible for air quality initiative federal funds
By TIM ALEXANDER
Illinois Correspondent
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Farmers in 39 Illinois counties are eligible for special technical and financial assistance when enrolling in USDA's Air Quality Initiative for 2013, according to Ivan Dozier, state conservationist for the state Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).
"NRCS has a special initiative that allows farmers to reduce contributions to particulate matter and the formation of ozone. This effort can really have an impact on improving air quality throughout the region," Dozier said.
"There are many popular conservation programs used in Illinois that will directly or indirectly benefit air quality concerns. This includes management changes or simple options like establishing cover crops, planting windbreaks or using nutrient management."
The program was established under the 2008 farm bill to offer federal assistance to producers to address air quality and concerns and help meet federal, state and local regulatory requirements of the 1990 Clean Air Act.
Producers eligible for assistance must own land in agricultural or forest production or be engaged in livestock, agricultural or forest production located on eligible land and have an existing "air quality natural resource concern," according to Illinois NRCS. Cropland, rangeland, pastureland, private non-industrial forestland and other farm and ranch lands are eligible.
According to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Air Quality Report for 2011, released on Nov. 30, 2012, air quality was good or moderate more than 92 percent of the time throughout the state, consistent with the 91 percent recorded in 2010. Illinois recorded no "unhealthy" or Category Red days in 2011, though air quality was considered unhealthy for sensitive groups (Category Orange) in parts of the state during 31 days.
Ten-year trends continue to show overall decreases for all pollutants in Illinois, including particulate matter, ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide and lead, according to Illinois EPA Interim Director John Kim.
"We are proud of the achievements Illinois has made in terms of air quality," he said in November. "While air quality standards continue to become more stringent, the Illinois EPA remains committed to meeting all current and future standards and is dedicated to continually improving air quality."
The 39 counties designated with a high priority need to address requirements of the Clean Air Act are: Cook, DuPage, Grundy, Jersey, Kane, Kendall, Lake, LaSalle, Madison, McHenry, Monroe, Randolph, St. Clair and Will (primary counties), along with Boone, Bond, Bureau, Calhoun, Clinton, DeKalb, Greene, Jackson, Henry, Kankakee, Livingston, Macon, Macoupin, Marshall, Mercer, Moultrie, Montgomery, Perry, Piatt, Putnam, Rock Island, Washington, Whiteside and Woodford (secondary counties).
The program is administered as part of USDA-NRCS EQIP (Environmental Quality Incentives Program). Upcoming enrollment evaluation dates for EQIP Air Quality Initiative assistance are Jan. 18, March 15 and May 17 for all counties. Applications may be acquired at your local County USDA Service Center.
For a complete list of eligible air quality improvement practices or a summary of specific air quality concerns for Illinois, visit www.il.nrcs.usda.gov/ programs/AIR/index.html
In addition, NRCS offers an online National Air Quality Site Assessment Tool (NAQSAT) for voluntary use by livestock producers to determine areas of their operations where changes could be made to promote reduced air emissions.

If House Republicans have their way, District of Columbia residents won't be allowed to walk the streets with a joint in their pocket, and they will be allowed to carry a semi-automatic rifle.
The GOP-controlled House approved a spending bill Wednesday that would undo the District's strict gun-control laws and its law decriminalizing possession of small amounts of marijuana. The fate of the spending bill and the amendments will likely depend on negotiations between the House, Senate and White House.
The gun amendment was introduced by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky. Twenty Democrats joined 221 Republicans in voting for it, while four GOP lawmakers voted against it.
A 2008 Supreme Court decision struck down the District's longstanding ban on handgun possession. Residents of the nation's capital must register handguns every three years, complete a safety course and be fingerprinted and photographed. The Massie amendment would get rid of all those, leaving only federal gun-control laws to govern the District.
"It is time for Congress to step in and stop the D.C. government's harassment and punishment of law-abiding citizens who simply want to defend themselves," Massie said in a statement.
Congress has the final say over the District's local laws and budget.
Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, a Democrat who represents the District in Congress but cannot vote on the House floor, called the amendment dangerous and pledged to defeat it.
"Rep. Massie may think D.C. will be one of the most permissive gun jurisdictions in the country — where you can openly carry assault weapons in the street and get a gun with no background check — but he's wrong," Norton said in a statement.
The marijuana amendment, introduced in committee last month by Republican Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland, would block the District from spending any money to liberalize its pot laws.
If enacted, the amendment would put the city in a curious legal position, according to the White House and drug policy groups. Mayor Vincent Gray signed a bill in March that decriminalizes possession of less than one ounce of pot, replacing criminal penalties for simple possession with a $25 fine, one of the nation's lowest.
Because Congress did not pass a resolution disapproving of the local law, it's set to take effect Thursday, and D.C. police are preparing to start issuing citations and inform the public about the policy change. Drug policy experts have voiced concern that the amendment's practical effect would only be to block the District from issuing the $25 fines.
The White House said in a statement that the marijuana amendment undermines states' rights and "poses legal challenges to the Metropolitan Police Department's enforcement of all marijuana laws currently in force in the District."
Harris argued that the decriminalization law was bad policy and would lead more children to smoke marijuana, hurting their brain development. Gray and other city leaders responded by calling for a boycott of Harris' district, which includes popular vacation spots on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

Surely, nearly everyone can agree that it takes more skills to ride a motorcycle than it does to drive a car. After all, a car will never tip over if you stick your foot in a patch of gravel, and they're all but immune to collarbone-cracking high-sides.

Five years after the critical and commercial disappointment of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, director David Lynch returned to the big screen with this cryptic thriller about confused identities and ****** obsession. Fred (Bill Pullman) is an avant-garde jazz saxophonist who shares a luxurious but fashionably barren house with his wife Renee (Patricia Arquette). Fred suspects that Renee may be unfaithful to him, but realizes he has bigger things to worry about when a series of videotapes appear at his door that prove someone is watching his home from the outside and inside. When Renee is found murdered, Fred finds himself behind bars, but one morning Fred is no longer in his cell. He has seemingly been transformed into Pete Drayton (Balthazar Getty), a young auto mechanic who foolishly allowed himself to get involved with the wife of gangster Dick Laurent (Robert Loggia), a luscious blonde named Alice who looks exactly like Renee. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
