For his last Ferrari appearance, Alonso wears a particular design, where his trademark arrows on top are all that's left from his usual design. The right is black with the signatures in silver of many team members, the left is red with a picture of Fernando pitting with the crew in the background, and two green and white stripes go from the front to the back making an asymmetric Italian flag.19th October 2014, 22:03 at 10:03 pm #279732
Race 16: South Korea
Qualifying: 19th – Race: 5th
The team had low expectations for the weekend but after a bad practice session and having to use a setup which made my car so unstable on the straights it turned to a side over a certain speed, qualifying 19th by 7 tenths was a half-miracle. True, I was 1.5s slower than Maldonado in 18th, but Petrov, who had beaten me in practice, was 22nd. After a slow start I avoided collisions and overtook most of the drivers ahead of me in the run towards turn 3, reaching P6just behind Vettel, who was just far ahead enough to be out of reach. Alonso retired on lap 2 and I recovered one more position, and stayed there until the pit stops. I earned ground on Kobayashi and Raikkonen as they had to sit stationary as other cars also stopped, and I realised that was my only hope of taking my position back on the following lap. It was so, as I was back in 5th place and with an extra advantage on my closest rival. I pushed hard and then saved my final extra litres of fuel for use on the straights, the only spots where I was actually under serious threat of being overtaken. It was difficult, especially with such a nervous front end, but I managed to stay 5th and thanks to Hamilton's non-score I can breathe a little more easily in the championship, which I now lead by 18 points. Schumacher won from pole, for the record, meaning the drivers ahead of me who gained most were also those furthest behind in the title.10th October 2014, 18:18 at 6:18 pm #278170
I never made a helmet for Jules since 2010 as his shiny effect and detailed design made it a hard task, but I've finally decided to do his 2014 helmet and despite it not being great it's better than I'd hoped. #ForzaJules5th October 2014, 23:44 at 11:44 pm #277292
As the news of Andrea De Cesaris' death has added to this day's sadness I have made an effortless combination of Jules' and Andrea's helmets.3rd October 2014, 19:17 at 7:17 pm #276768
Race 15: Japan
Qualifying: 18th – Race: 22nd
I was 19th in Q1 after my first run but found an extra half-a-second to take 17th place. In the final minutes, though, Vergne beat me by less than three hundredths and I was out of the session, 3 places ahead of Petrov. After a good start I was up to P8, also thanks to Vettel's mistake which dropped him to last. Maldonado got through quickly, though, and after my pit stop I pulled a great move on the outside of turn 1 to keep my position on Vergne. Unfortunately a few laps later I spun at the same spot and took him out with me. Another spin was the reason I got a penalty as I impeded Vettel, and now behind Petrov I had nowhere to go. Vettel was right behind me and got past on lap 11, but retired on lap 12 with a blown engine. I spun one more time on the last lap because crossing the line 16th wasn't enough and finished 22nd to Petrov's 15th.29th September 2014, 21:26 at 9:26 pm #276317
Race 14: Singapore
Qualifying: 11th – Race: DSQ
I was 11th in practice, and in Q1, still on the prime compound, I set a time which would have put me on top of the timesheets in practice and which was worth fourth place in Q1 itself; Petrov, on the other hand, was eliminated in 22nd place. In Q2 I couldn't improve my previous lap time on the option tyres with my first set, but with my second I came within 0.090s of Vettel's time: he was 10th, and I was knocked out in 11th place. Hamilton from pole led the two Red Bulls, with Vettel on the second row; Button and Alonso wrapped up the grid in 12th row. I jumped into second place by the time we reached turn 5 as Rosberg and Hamilton impeded each other in an attempt to snatch the lead from Webber. I lost touch with the Red Bull immediately, but was satisfied by my pace as our best times only differed by two seconds. I pitted on lap 7 and came out 4th behind Pic and Petrov and ahead of Raikkonen, while Hamilton and Rosberg had lost some time and took some and though I gently touched the wall, slightly damaging the front wing, I had to reverse to get back on track. I spun again and into the approaching Vettel, and received two penalties at once. I continued in 8th place, having let Massa by to get DRS, before I accidentally hit Kobayashi at turn 8: he spun 180° and prompted the stewards to disqualify me. Webber beat Hamilton and Rosberg and my championship lead has been halved to 20 points only.26th September 2014, 12:03 at 12:03 pm #276109
Sadly, before my final race of the season, I received the "corrupt file" message and lost all my progress. Not only career but time trials and scenarios and everything else. I decided to do a Grand Prix weekend in Brazil to complete, unofficially, my career. I put the same settings as I'd had but somehow I had too great a performance advantage on my rivals.
Race 19: Brazil
Qualifying: 1st – Race: 1st
Practice was a dry start to a wet weekend, and I topped the session by over two seconds. I was first on intermediates in Q1 and second in Q2. A first run on those tyres put me 8th in Q3, but I noticed the track was too dry. On full wets I improved by two seconds to take first, and had time to do another run on another set of wets and beat my own provisional pole time while others also improved. I was almost two seconds ahead of Raikkonen and Hulkenberg, who beat Vettel and Alonso. The race was run under light rain and everyone used intermediate tyres. Raikkonen overtook me on the inside of turn 1 at the start but ran deep enough for me to move to the inside and take the lead back. I led by three seconds at the end of the first lap as Hamilton had fought his way up to 2nd. I then proceeded to earn around a second per lap on Hamilton himself, and set the fastest lap right away. On lap 9 Alonso, now 3rd, pitted, but Hamilton stayed out one more lap and I, wanting to record a Grand Chelem, stayed out two more laps as I wanted to be sure Hamilton was stopping. I pitted just after momentarily lapping Pic and came back out with 10 seconds on Hamilton. I immediately lapped Chilton and Bianchi, set the fastest lap again before lapping van der Garde and Pic, then improved further the fastest lap. I stayed in the 1:14s every lap till the end and won with a 20-second margin on Hamilton who preceded Alonso. Vettel out of the points meant Fernando has taken 3rd place in the standings back.

Race 18: United States
Qualifying: 5th – Race: 1st
I had never shown good pace so I was thinking of using prime tyres in Q3: Hamilton had a 20-position penalty in practice so I had one rival less to worry about. Instead I saved two sets of options in Q2 and I used them: I was first by two tenths with my first lap, but my mechanics repaired an inexistent problem on my car and I was prevented from lapping again, and dropped to 5th, 6 tenths off Alonso's pole time. Due to Hamilton's penalty, I started 4th. I overtook Vettel and Rosberg at turn 1 and chased Alonso, but did not force a move. Unfortunately he was quick enough through sector 3, my weakest point, to be too far ahead by the time we approached sector 1, my strongest point, on the next lap. I stayed in second place but noticed, the lap I was due to pit, that he was back in my sight despite having been much further ahead. I pitted on lap 6, and me and Vettel came out of our boxes in time to avoid an enormous traffic jam: a queue of cars lined up behind us in the pit lane. One lap later I was back in second place, despite Webber setting the fastest time; however, it was Maldonado who led. I saw that Alonso had begun lapping at least five seconds slower for three laps before stopping, and was held up in the pit lane, dropping down to around 13th place. Maldonado stopped and I led the two Red Bulls, while Rosberg had also started dropping down. While Alonso fell down to 20th, Hamilton climbed to reach us fighting trio at the end of the race: as I lapped consistently in the high 1:40s or in the low 1:41s, I kept my lead while Hamilton overtook Webber for the podium place behind Vettel. This means Alonso has dropped to 4th in the drivers' standings.19th September 2014, 18:43 at 6:43 pm #275187
Race 17: Abu Dhabi
Qualifying: 6th – Race: 1st
I went from being quickest by 6 tenths in FP to being 1.1s slower than Vettel in Q3. I qualified 6th, and ahead of me on the grid, on my same column were Alonso, on row 1, and Hamilton between us. I had a good start, overtook Vettel at turn 2 and Alonso at the hairpin. I handled the lead well but I had to anticipate my stop for excessive tyre degradation to lap 5. I pushed hard in the following lap but Vettel came out ahead of me. Sutil, though, held him up at the hairpin and, after obtaining DRS, I passed both at the hairpin. I had skidded out of track when I passed Sutil, though, so I had to give him the position back in the acceleration zone. I lost some time but re-passed the Force India with DRS and KERS, and continued that lap knowing Webber was likely going to get past me as well. He was closer than Vettel was, though, and again I took DRS and overtook him before the activation zone. I only resisted a few laps before I had to lower my pace to handle my tyres, visibly losing traction. Luckily there was battle behind me as I'd slowed down the field, and at times it proved crucial, especially on the last lap when Grosjean and Raikkonen made it to the podium at the expense of Hamilton and gave me a safety margin in the second DRS zone. I held my lead through the tight third sector and took a 5th win of the season when I'd stopped hoping for them and though I'd have to defend my championship lead till the last round. Instead, despite Alonso's 11th place, we took both titles after this race, and I renewed my contract with Maranello.17th September 2014, 17:07 at 5:07 pm #274879
Race 16: India
Qualifying: 12th – Race: 3rd
Free practice wasn't encouraging and despite being 6th in Q1 I was 12th in Q2; Alonso took pole from Rosberg, Vettel and Hamilton. I recovered to 3rd at turn 3, behind Alonso and Vettel and ahead of Hamilton. I soon notice, though, that my option tyres wouldn't have made it till the planned pit stop, but I decided that an extra lap in my second stint was feasible as I'd seen in practice that the prime compound could last ten laps. I stopped on lap 6 and despite two imperfect laps I was 4th when Webber and Hamilton pitted two laps later. I was in Webber's tow, got DRS and overtook him into braking for turn 3. Button got past as well and held the pair up for a couple of laps. I set my personal best time on lap 9 but then it became a five-way fight for 3rd place: I held back Webber, Button and the two Mercedes. Uncountable swaps of positions later I was still ahead, when I realised tyre degradation was worse than planned. I slowed, perhaps excessively, on lap 13, and went a bit faster in the final two laps, still driving much more smoothly than I had previously done. I often had to counter-attack going into turn 4, at times with three cars alongside me using DRS, but I did not let the podium slip away from me and I finished 3rd, ages after Alonso and Vettel had crossed the line. I held Hamilton behind me and Fernando is now very close to him in the championship.16th September 2014, 18:04 at 6:04 pm #274824
Race 15: Japan
Qualifying: 10th – Race: 8th
I was first in practice, but only 6th, 9th and 10th in each section of qualifying respectively, while Vettel beat Alonso and the two Mercedes to pole. I rose to 2nd on the first lap by overtaking Rosberg before going under the bridge, but Vettel had enough margin at Spoon Kurve to avoid my attack and run away. I noticed halfway-through my stint that my tyres should already have been replaced, so rather than trying to extend my second stint by a lap I was forced to take the difficult decision of converting to a 3-stop strategy. I stopped on lap 4 and put on another set of mediums. I was 13th and overtook two cars to become 11th before the others served their mandatory stop too. I was 3rd for a lap behind Alonso, who had overtaken me off track, and ahead of Hamilton. I stopped again on lap 8 and put on hard tyres, coming out 11th behind Ricciardo. I passed him on that lap, two laps later I caught and overtook Sutil and on the final lap I overtook di Resta to finish 8th after what could probably have been my best performance ever. Despite an extra stop I was in contention for points and despite pitting two laps earlier than Alonso I lost only a couple of seconds to him. However, my eleven-race podium streak came to an end; this is also only the second time, since I joined Ferrari, I have scored points but not stepped on the podium. Vettel won but Hamilton was only 5th, limiting his points gain to 6 in this round, while Vettel has passed Webber in the championship.15th September 2014, 16:07 at 4:07 pm #274767
Race 14: South Korea
Qualifying: 13th – Race: 2nd
I could only manage 13th in Q2 as rain affected my second run, while Vettel took pole from Hamilton and Alonso. I had a good run on the outside of turns 1 and 2 and combined with a good tow down the straight I got up to 2nd place by overtaking Hamilton at turn 3. Vettel ran away, though I lapped only a second slower than him, and the drivers behind me didn't form a train. Rosberg knocked Alonso into a spin at turn 3 on the fourth lap. I pitted on lap 5 and forced Vettel to stay stationary for some more time as Rosberg and other drivers stopped too. Hulkenberg was fractionally late and allowed Vettel to leave while I waited for him to go by, meaning I had cut on Vettel's lead but not enough to attack him. He was caught in traffic but Alonso was barely going to hold him behind and Ricciardo wasn't slow enough, and both pitted anyhow at the end of the lap. Rosberg was delayed by Bottas and messed up as he was then overtaken by Webber. I kept him behind quite easily till the end, and after sandwiching between the two Mercedes in Singapore I did so between the two Red Bulls in Korea. Raikkonen did not score points for the first time this year after a crash but Alonso recovered to 6th; Hamilton was 10th after recovering through the field.14th September 2014, 18:25 at 6:25 pm #274669
Race 13: Singapore
Qualifying: 6th – Race: 2nd
In practice I had to run five laps starting with a fuel load of 56 laps, meaning I was last by 2 seconds, but with 40 laps' worth of fuel less I was 10th, 2 seconds off Hamilton which I selected as my rival going into the weekend. Qualifying was the first dry session of the weekend and I confirmed my fears that I lacked grip and traction out of corners. 11th in Q1, 7th in Q2, as I found more confidence on the super softs, set me up for Q3. A good first lap put me 6th, and I cut a corner on my second attempt and had to give up. Alonso set pole ahead of Vettel and Hamilton. At the start I successfully tried a crazy move, squeezing through Hamilton on the right and Vettel on the left, with only a few inches of space more than my car's width. I took the lead and pitted on lap 5, but Hamilton had done so one lap earlier and leapfrogged me. Alonso and the others who waited one more lap stayed behind. It started raining towards lap 8, but I waited to see if the situation got bad enough to have to switch tyres. On lap 11 I became the first one to put intermediates on, excluding Vettel who had pitted for a new front wing one lap earlier. Hamilton and the others followed on lap 12 and I recovered to be 3 seconds from Hamilton instead of the 13 I had before stopping. Perhaps had my crew not replaced my slightly damaged front wing I could've made it back to the lead, but anyhow Hamilton ran away again and I managed my gap on Rosberg to finish 2nd.10th September 2014, 22:10 at 10:10 pm #274256
Just for fun, I don't buy these claims…
Mercedes: Rosberg, Hamilton, Bottas
Red Bull: Ricciardo, Vettel, Vergne

First Oil Change on my 128i Convertible

I thought I would post this here... bc if JimD's wonderfull DIY oil change. When I first started searching for a DIY oil change... JimD's was the only one I found. So I am posting my 135i DIY oil change pics here. I hope you don't mind JimD.
I don't think I need to write much... I will just post the pics with some helpfull hints.
under the hood of a 135i...
Once the car is jacked up safely and you placed your saftey jack stands... open the access pannel with a flat blade screw driver. You turn the screw 180' to open it.
135i oil drain plug/bolt. The oil will shoot out towards the passenger side of the car.
I used a 17mm 1/2 drive ratchet to remove the drain plug. It should take too much to crack it open. When reinstalling the drain bolt I don't go nuts. 30Nm should be fine. The last thing you want is to strip the drain pan threads.
Watch out! Hot oil is shooting out!
Always replace the coper o-ring on the drain bolt. Make sure the old one doesn't stick onto the oil pan!
Remove the old cartridge filter element - after the oil has drained.
I let the olf oil filter sit like this for a few minutes to let the excess oil drain away - before I remove the cartridge.
Always replace the small and large O-rings on the filter housing. You can use a pick tool to remove the O-rings, but ALWAYS install new O-rings by hand. So as not to damage the new O-rings. Put some oil on the the O-rings too! So they do not bind going back on.
I like to suck out any left over oil inside of the oil filter housing. Before.
And... after!
New filter going on...
I use some Brake kleen to wash away any spilt old oil from around the filter housing area.
Add seven quarts of your favorite motor oil(as long as its BMW LL1 (long Life 1) specs) and you are done!
Hope you enhoyed my photos.

Calling all data hounds!
Senior developers from The New York Times and The Washington Post are looking for volunteers to help collect more than 10 years of federal elections data from each state. With their help — and $200,000 in Knight News Challenge funding — Serdar Tumgoren and Derek Willis are working on creating a free, comprehensive source of official U.S. election results.
The goal is to end up with electoral data that can then be linked to different types of data sets — campaign finance, voter demographics, legislative histories, and so on — in ways that previously haven't been possible on this scale.
Tumgoren, of The Washington Post, says the idea for Open Elections came from "mutual frustration that there is no single, free source of data — and more importantly, nicely standardized data." Soothing this frustration isn't necessarily going to be pretty. The task of finding state elections data — at least some of which will be a godawful, inextricable mess — will require some "brute-forcing," Tumgoren says.
"If you look at Mississippi's data, they make me not very happy — they make me sad, in fact," Tumgoren said. "Just a sampling of a few states I randomly picked, they run the gambit from pretty good to oh-my-God-how-are-we-going-to-get-this-data."
Tumgoren estimates it will take about two years to get to where he wants Open Elections to be, but the entire process will be open to the public. As data comes in, the team will clean it up, put it in a standardized format, and share it. What that format will be is still up in the air — as are many of the details, which Tumgoren says they'll have to figure out as they begin to get a better sense of the state of the data they'll get.
"There are going to be some states like Virginia that are wonderful and have very clean data," Tumgoren said. "Other places — we don't even know which ones yet — data is going to be less accessible because it's not centralized or it's in formats like image PDF."
For now, Open Elections is building the infrastructure to begin collecting and sorting data. As they recruit volunteers, they'll be looking for people who can dig up U.S. Senate, House, presidential, and gubernatorial elections results from the past 10 years or so.
"This is such a big project we're limiting the scope initially," Tumgoren said. "Governor, Senate, House, president: Whatever else we can get, we're not going to turn our noses up at it." While they may not be able to clean up, link, and standardize data from other races, Tumgoren says his team will still work to centralize it.
"It's just an untapped resource," Tumgoren said. "The ability to do this is very limited right now. We almost don't know what we don't know. I have a vague sense of some of the questions I'd like to ask but I bet there are tons of journalists and developers who are going to think of things that never even occurred to me. The possibilities for so-called data mashups are limitless."

Dear Mitt Romney: I was pleased to hear that you have accepted an invitation to speak in July before the 103rd convention of the NAACP in Houston. In anticipation of that event, I have taken the liberty of writing a speech for you. It's only a beginning, space limitations being what they are, but it should get you off to a solid start and you can take it from there. So, here it is:
Dear Annie: I've been a stepmother to two lovely girls, now 12 and 17, since they were very young. My husband gladly pays child support on time without fail. The girls have different mothers who raise their children in opposite ways, yet in both cases, it's rare that the child support actually reaches the child.

Camden residents will have a chance to voice their opinions soon on two major transportation projects slated for the town -- a proposed "road diet" for Camden's Broad Street and an official truck route around the city. Both of them could have a major impact on the city for years to come, so we hope citizens who have a particular point of view will voice their feelings July 10 at Camden High School.
We all know how the Obama administration likes to portray the auto bailout: a generous infusion of money enabled the government to save General Motors and Chrysler. Jobs that would otherwise have disappeared were rescued by this taxpayer-funded largesse. It was expensive, but we had no choice.

Recent polls show, unsurprisingly, that President Obama holds an overwhelming lead among Latino voters, outdistancing Republican Mitt Romney by almost a three-to-one margin. Part of this is because of Obama's political posturing towards Hispanics, but part is also due to the GOP's failure to offer programs that appeal to the country's fastest-growing group. It follows the same trend that holds with African-American voters, who favor Obama -- or any other Democrat, for that matter -- by almost 90 percent.
Camden's local chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. hosted its Third Annual Debutante Cotillion, Crimson & Pearls: Impacting Lives with Grace and Elegance, on May 20 at the Historic Robert Mills Courthouse in Camden, South Carolina.

Lawyers of every political persuasion are lining up in Washington to have their say on the legality or illegality of the plan President Obama intends to implement regarding amnesty for illegal aliens who are in the United States without proper authorization, with one major network saying the president's plan to take the immigration system into his own hands "is a daring test of the limits of presidential power."
WASHINGTON -- News that Pope Francis will visit the U.S. next year for the triennial World Meeting of Families brings elation to Catholics, excitement to pope watchers -- and perhaps a little chagrin to some who too soon interpreted Francis' broad compassion as a precursor to doctrinal changes related to marriage.

Jenelle Evans: Arrested For Swearing in Public After Fight With Nathan Griffith!by Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments
That didn't take long. Just days after announcing that she is pregnant with her second child, Jenelle Evans got arrested after a major fight with her boyfriend.
It wasn't the fight itself, but the Teen Mom 2 firebrand's foul mouth that got her locked up in South Carolina yesterday, though it stemmed from a Nathan Griffith feud.
Police were dispatched two separate times to Evans' home Saturday after receiving calls about her arguing with Griffth outside, according to reports.
Nathan told authorities that the reality star locked him out of the house during an argument, but he agreed to go for a walk and cool off, so officers left.
Shortly after, they were dispatched to the residence again.
Upon arriving at the house again, they saw that Nathan had climbed in the house through a window. The pregnant Jenelle Evans was locked in a bathroom.
Police handled that situation too, to the point where they were ready leave without incident ... until Jenelle started yelling curse words outside the house.
When she refused to stop, cops took her into custody for disturbing the peace. Shortly thereafter, the latest of many Jenelle Evans mug shots was taken.
She's still on probation (for her many, many past run-ins with the law), meaning she could face additional jail time if convicted of this minor offense.
Jenelle was only in jail for about an hour before being cut loose, but not before adding yet another booking photo to her personal Wall of Shame.
No word on what caused the beef with Nathan Griffith, but her previous pregnancy was followed by a miscarriage, arrest and separation from Courtland Rogers.
That was all less than a year ago (she and Rogers are still legally married, in fact). Hopefully, history won't repeat itself this time around. Stay tuned.
I just a picture of her pregnant belly and it looks really bad, I mean bad...
It looks like she has broken out sores on the belly button and tattoo looks fresh... I was wondering if she is still taking drugs...They should take the baby away from her, for the baby's safety...
Isn't this like her 5th pregnancy ??
Second one....
Isn't this like her 5th pregnancy ??
This chick will never change she lives her life stuck on the repeat button. Grow up dumb bitch :)
shw trash..no hope no life ..she sold her self to the to the trash pit,,,
she trash....no hope no life...
This young lady need "HELPBAD"
It's even harder being a clown!
so it's pretty hard to be a role model?
Jenelle is making money on her TV series so she ought to get the hell out of Dodge and find a better town and better husband and boyfriend. If you are getting shit on then find a better place and better men to be around, instead of kept in a vicious circle with asses.

With as much plant wildlife as there is in the woods or any other area in which you're camping, it can be very difficult to keep track of what can be harmful and what's safe. Unless you have a good amount of knowledge on plant life, it can be hard to distinguish between many species. There are, of course, measures you can take to prevent uncomfortable or even dangerous encounters with plants in the wild.
If you don't recognize it, don't touch it:
As you may have already noticed just from every day encounters with plants, a lot of them look alike –very alike. Don't trust that just because a plant looks similar to one you are familiar, that it doesn't present a threat.
Watch your step:
This isn't to say you should be afraid of everything that's green with roots, but you should be very aware of the plants around you. Watch where you are walking and avoid touching plants you don't immediately recognize. It's also wise to wash your hands whenever possible and make sure you do not touch your face. If you are doing hiking in the area, it's also a good idea to wear pants for added protection.
Watch your pets:
If you are bringing your little companions on your trip into the wilderness, remember to keep a close eye on them as they can be very curious and could ingest something toxic. While the wild is a nice place for pets to roam free without the constraints of a leash and the dangers of passing cars, there are other types of dangers present. Be watchful of what they are sniffing and make sure to have a proper safety kit in case of an emergency.
Watch for the signs:
Many plants can be deceiving. Remember that like animals, plants also have defense mechanisms. Vivid colored berries and beautiful flowers can sometimes be a warning sign and it's best not to take them lightly. Their attractiveness is not an invitation for a passerby.
Do your research:
It never hurts to familiarize yourself with the types of plants you will be encountering. The best thing you could do is research the campsite where you will be staying if you are camping. Get to know the plants that are native to that area and learn to identify them. Purchase a guide to identify plants and keep it on hand in case you need to learn more about it or you need to read up on treatmeant in case of an emergency.

HoopsHype John Wall rumors
"We've all seen the new commercial, John," NBA TV's Matt Winer said to Wall on Wednesday night. "You probably have a personal chef, so maybe this doesn't apply to you in the real world. But if there were a Wall's Wings and Burgers out there in the real world, would you be a wing guy or a burger guy?" "I haven't had a burger in three years," Wall said. "So I'd be a wing guy. But I know all my family, they'd be on the burger side." Washington Post
There's only a few NBA players that've had signature sneakers with more than one brand, and Wall broke down the difference between working with adidas versus his short tenure at Reebok when he first got into the NBA. "I think the biggest difference when I came into the situation with Reebok is that they already had they're shoes designed, so I didn't really have any say so," Wall said at an in-store appearance at Foot Locker in New York last night. "At adidas, I didn't get a shoe right away. I had to work and show my dedication on and off the court. Putting in work and getting better in those situations and sitting down and getting to know the adidas people a lot better." Sole Collector
Chris Haynes: #Cavs Dion Waiters never minces words. @ChrisFedor asked him about John Wall's comment on them having best backcourt: "That's nonsense." Twitter @ChrisBHaynes
John Wall keeps a list on his phone of the slights and criticism he hears, reads and perceives. He updates it whenever he comes across a new form of disrespect and reads it for motivation before he steps on the floor for every practice and game. Washington Post
"I'm one of the most complete point guards in the league," Wall, 24, said Tuesday after the Washington Wizards concluded their first training camp practice. "I rebound, I assist, play defense, steal, score. I don't get why I'm overlooked. I'm still trying to figure it out." Washington Post
"I thought I should've made the all-star team maybe four or five times," Miller said. "It's never happened just because it's a popularity contest. So I just find myself going out and working hard. And I think that's what he's done." Washington Post
Washington Wizards' point guard John Wall is joining the signature shoe club. Adidas unveiled the J Wall 1 signature shoe and apparel clothing line on Monday. Wall's logo with Adidas is his initials "JW" with the J crossing over through the W to celebrate his incredibly quick crossover dribble on the court. It also pays homage to his father, who passed away when Wall was just nine years old. From Adidas: CBSSports.com
John Wall: More Motivation, Love it... #wizsquad !! Twitter @John_Wall
The NBA leader in total assists this past season spoke with CSNwashington.com on Saturday at his charitable foundation's "Back2School" event for children in Washington. Asked if he was given a fair shot to make the final 12-player roster, Wall said, "Nah, I don't think so, but it's a part of the game. I'm just happy to have the opportunity to be there and represent my country. I wish them the best of luck and hope they can win gold." CSNWashington.com
"It was cool. It wasn't bad at all," Wall said of his left knee. "I got through the whole week. I thought I played pretty well. Things didn't go in my favor. But, we'll (get) past it." CSNWashington.com
Point guards Derrick Rose and Stephen Curry are considered Team USA roster locks. That left Wall, Damian Lillard and Kyrie Irving, who played at Duke under Krzyzewski, competing for 1-2 spots. As the odd man out, Wall now has a new source of motivation heading into the upcoming season. "Yeah, definitely, always. You want to make every team you try out for. When you don't, it's more motivation for me. "Not even (against) just those (Team USA point guards), but the NBA, period. I guess I'm overlooked again. I guess have to prove myself one more time." CSNWashington.com
More than a year after his split from Reebok, Wall has become of the one of the faces of Adidas and said last week that he will have a signature shoe line, complete with a personal logo, released in October. During his time in Las Vegas, Wall got to break in his new sneakers and even put on some of his personal shorts and shirts after removing his Nike-produced USA Basketball gear. Washington Post
Wall signed a five-year, $25 million deal with Reebok before he was drafted by the Wizards, but that relationship came to an end in the third year. With Wall's career stalled by injury and an unstable Wizards roster, the partnership with Reebok soured and he moved over to Adidas, which owns Reebok. The move took Wall from being the foundation of one brand into a situation where he had to prove his worth as a player to a company that already had a stable of established all-stars. Washington Post

Valve: Games run FASTER on Linux than Windows
Re: Why the Steam hate?
Pretty much what the AC said. It's a toy, not nuclear launch codes. If it's not as simple as "install, play", then my money goes elsewhere.
Fortunately for me, I'm not addicted to the shiny. I get as much enjoyment from the (DRM Free) Gratuitious Space Battles, as I do from something like Dead Island or Half Life 2 (which, amusingly, I played to completion at a friend's house who got both from the Bay). That's £17.38 + £4.99 + £6.97 for GSB + Galactic Conquest + physical CD delivery to Positech Games and approximately £0 to Valve. Yes, GSB is available on Steam, but when it's a DRM-free download direct from Positech's website, why the hell would you want to punish yourself?
Re: Gabe!
Things talking to a third party server across the Internet in order to prove you're not a pirate is a central component of DRM. Steam is a particularly virulent variety that demands you create an account in order to be buttraped effectively.
At least all Doom 3 did was contact some authentication server, and even then the worst that could happen was multiplayer got disabled if your copy didn't pass. Steam? No ta, I like to avoid malware.
Thought it was pretty obvious.
DIrectX, a kitchen-sink API that tries to do everything and be everything to everyone.
OpenGL.. it does one thing, which is to push pixels, at incredible rates.
Though the only upside I could see to Steam being successful would be other games developers making stuff for Linux that doesn't require Steam. Do not want, will not buy. Just hope it doesn't come as some bundled-with-the-distro thing that I end up having to delete with every single distribution upgrade.
Ice Cream Sandwich still a no-show for most Android users
Re: Skin/ui customization
Anybody who likes a phone not laden down with crapware would probably go for a "pure" Android over some awful manufacturer-buggered version.
Problem is, most people don't know what that means until you stick the two side by side for a performance and bloat comparison. Leaner? Meaner? I'll have that one, please.
I find that link a whole lot more useful than a single pie chart. The rate of ICS adoption is increasing quite a bit. In fact it's made quite a jump in just three months. Doubled, if those figures are accurate. At this rate, I'd say give it six months and ICS will be where 2.x was a year or so ago. You might want to contrast that with say, Vista or 7 adoption compared to the XP juggernaut that just keeps on trucking.
Nothing to see here, move along people.
Google opens up pay-by-bonk Wallet to all credit cards
"Perhaps *you* should explain how NFC is hackable."
And it's not like these will be the only vulnerabilities, or the last. Sorry, but my bank card is going to be electrical contacts only, and I refuse to store it in a phone. In this case, simple is most definitely better.
Now perhaps you should explain the advantage of NFC over slotting a card in a machine, asides maybe two whole seconds?
Re: But, but...
So can the downvoters explain how proven-hackable NFC tech on proven-hackable smartphones is better than putting electrical contacts on a card that require you to physically slot the card in a machine?
Or is it just that you're addicted to the shiny?
But, but...
I already have a bank card, and it comes without silly bloody radio shite attached!
Still wondering how to permanently disable NFC, whether it'll be as simple as cutting a track. I really hope so because it's getting difficult to find a smartphone without it these days.
Lenovo: 'Us, buy Nokia? Surely you jest'
Re: "can't really give a good reason why"
@Dave 126:
I had the same problem as well. However, for the first time since I updated the device, I went poking around in the location services section of ICS. They now have three checkboxes: "Google's Location Service" to use the wifi location. "GPS Satellites" to use GPS, and "Location & Google Search" to let Google use your location.
You can tick the first two boxes and leave the third unchecked if you like. Wonder what else GPS is used for on WP8 and IOS when it's enabled? Ever noticed how Microsoft and Apple only appear to be concerned about privacy when there's a bit of a Google scandal going on? It's probably because they're all in it up to their necks and are just glad it's Google that gets caught so they can look good, while continuing with as much data mining as they can get away with.
Anyway, whoever said "CIAndroid" doesn't have a clue about mobile phones. I suggest you never buy another mobile phone and destroy the one you have, because pretty much anything connected to a mobile network these days is also a tracking device.
Thanks for all this data, UK.gov, but what on Earth does it mean?
Re: Bung out the data
Fortunately, on the Internet you only need one person with a computer, scripting language and some determination to find the 0.0001% and show it to everybody.
Analyst says Surface could hurt Ultrabook, Windows 8 tablets
Re: Eh?
Full blown desktop OS on a tablet? If they do, they'll be sorely disappointed. WIndows 8 RT is not Windows 8, and Metro is a design experiment that belongs on the occasional smartphone, to be fiddled with before going straight back to Go Launcher EX or some other, more usable equivalent.
I believe Microsoft tried XP for Tablets a while back and it was a resounding failure.
And has anybody who thinks Android isn't suitable for tablets even tried ICS on a 10" screen yet? Personally I still like the old 2.x grid of icons, but for people who like being blinded by shiny, ICS definitely has a gleam to it.
Will Samsung's patent court doc leak backfire spectacularly?
Pretty much what others are saying.
"I know the F700 predates the iphone, but you didn't follow my diktats so I'll rule in Apple's favour".
That would be a judge straight out of kindergarten, if it went down like that. I'm hoping it won't, as the Judge wouldn't be punishing Samsung so much as every single entity that gets sued over rounded rectangles from here on in, because the patents have been "proven valid", even though plainly they aren't.
Hopefully Judge Koh has more sense than to throw all her toys out of the pram in a fit. That wouldn't be good for anybody, and Samsung do have a point. The F700 does look an awful lot like an iPhone, and does predate the iPhone. Surely that's game, set and match to Sammy?
Nasa guides Mars Rover with Kinect
Re: Nice.
...and a reply from the resident Microserf? I should have guessed.
When I see anybody I know, at all, who has a Kinect, I might take you even semi-seriously. This thing would probably garner more attention as a ROM available for DS R4 carts, as it will as Kinect software.
Not saying I don't want a go but.. Kinect? Really?
Now if only I was one of the two or three people with a Kinect...
Surely a mobile version would be more widely used?
Microsoft unfurls patent lasso, snares Linux servers
Bit of a masochist then, are you?
Just remember.
This proves that people would rather pay Microsoft protection money for nothing, than actually use Windows.
Readers fret over LOHAN's chilly bits
Coin Cells vs AAAs
Duracell CR2032, shorted through the multimeter. Maximum current reading, about 25mA. This may have been a faulty battery, as a much smaller L1131 button cell gave about 450mA, rapidly dropping to 400mA and lower.
Duracell Plus AAA, shorted through the multimeter. Maximum current reading, about 1.5 amps.
Just out of curiosity, an Energizer Ultra+ D cell, maximum current draw of around 2 amps.
Make of that what you will. I'd go for solder-lugged AAAs, myself.
Re: replace batteries
A fuel cell seems possible, but it weighs about a kilo for a 100W PEM fuel cell before you start adding the hydrogen tanks. Given the cell also requires oxygen, you'd also need that taking up as well. It's also about £800 for the cell, before you start going into specially-designed low pressure storage tanks for the boom juice.
Definitely not cheap, probably about a kilo and a half to two kilos all in, but you get a steady 100 watts at a flow rate of 1.3 litres of hydrogen per minute according to this source.
Yeah, a stack of D cells would last long enough and probably weigh less. Including, perhaps, the vacuum flask.
Stack o' button cells.
Nice idea, but does a series stack of CR2032s give enough current to set a fuse off?
If not, three cheap-ish lipo cells (100-150mAh or so) probably will work. Might even be able to make the whole affair light enough to have two or three firing circuits just to make sure.
Valve to raise Steam for Ubuntu
Re: Interesting rant, obviously never tried it
I can use Steam without creating an account? Or hoping that Steam's servers don't fuck up for the activation of a game I've bought? In fact can I play a game without somehow activating it, like Micriosoft's insidious and just as awful WGA abortion?
Ah. I can't.
Sucks, then. Sorry. No, I haven't tried it. I just have to see other people trying it to know I don't want it. There are games out there that don't demand installation of malware though, fortunately. They are few and far between... but they get my money. Valve does not. If it's not as simple as "install and play", I am not interested. It's a toy, for fuck's sake.
Re: Ummm?
Try and buy a PC game without it and you'll see what I mean. I do not want another forgettable, hackable username and password creating just to play with a toy. I will not risk some third party's servers fucking up and denying me access to software I've paid for and I resent the accusation that I'm a pirate and I need to be proven innocent first.
It's bad enough on Android with the perpetual "license error" bugs. If I'd have known that paid apps on that platform were basically Steam-ish shite by another name, I'd have not paid for them. Just another thing driving me towards root and the 'bay.
Ya hear that, Valve? Google? EA? Ubisoft? The lot of you fucking retards? Paying customer here, or I could be. Get rid of your invasive malware or I will make unauthorised, ironically malware-free copies out of principle as much as practicality. There is a bloody big difference between copy protection and the shit you are pulling.
"When Steam for Linux does go live, it'll be available on Ubuntu 12.04"
Please don't tell me this is more shite I'll have to uninstall? I've been avoiding that malware ever since it came out and I don't intent to create an account for it now.
Microsoft 'didn't notice' it had removed Browser Choice for 17 months
Re: Who the frig cares? Browsers never made any money....
"OSS projects have been able to gain a foothold in many server applications because of the wide utility of highly commoditized, simple protocols. By extending these protocols and developing new protocols, we can deny OSS projects entry into the market."
"By folding extended functionality (e.g. Storage+ in file systems, DAV/POD for networking) into today's commodity services, we raise the bar & change the rules of the game."
"Part of the reason that Apache was able to get a foothold and take off was because the HTTP protocol is so simple. As more and more features become layered on top of the humble web server (e.g. multi-server transaction support, POD, etc.) it will be interesting to see how the Apache team will be able to keep up."
All made possible by bundling their own browser in with an OS that has a near-100% market share. If allowed to succeed, Microsoft would quite simply control the Web and be able to tax it and exclude all others as they see fit. A bit like they can do already on the desktop.
Like I mentioned earlier, you'd think some people had never read the Halloween Documents. Take a good look, and tell me whether Microsoft don't desperately deserve everything they've been hit with and quite probably a good deal more. It's no good shouting "MAKE BETTER STUFF" if you can't "MAKE BETTER STUFF" without being owned by Microsoft, or indeed, any other patent troll.
They'd de-commoditize the English language if they could.
Re: Totally pointless
A few years ago, Microsoft were very close to making it so that you needed to have Windows and IE in order to view the Web. See my previous post about HTML extensions that depend on DirectX, which is only ever going to be available on Microsoft-approved platforms. You know, like Windows and the Xbox. In this case, the browser that people want would be the only browser that would have worked on the vast majority of websites, which would have been IE. Running in Windows.
Sheesh, it's like people don't read the Halloween documents. You think Microsoft have changed in the slightest since then, except for the worse?
Re: Users didn't notice it had removed Browser Choice for 17 months
About the same time that Microsoft stop trying shit on like filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Fade(sProperties).
Which would be, uhm, never.
Re: And at what point...
About the same time they gain near-enough 100% of the desktop computer OS share?
Let's face it, you can get along quite nicely without ever touching an Apple-branded machine. Try that with Windows and see how far you get.
No, neckbeards who like to pretend that LaTeX is the same as Office or in any way appropriate for normal people, you don't count. And yes, I do use various Linuxes.

Re: Fell at the first hurdle (almost)
I still don't know why the big deal over valves. Sure, you can get nice-sounding valve amps these days, but you can also get lovely-sounding transistor amps that don't have the requisite 30 second warm-up associated with valves.
In a guitar amp? Sure, the overdrive characteristics of valves provide a much richer distortion than the awful, scratchy clipping you get from an overdriven transistor, but we're talking hi fi here, shirley? You know, as in trying not to overdrive things?
Re: Bonkers? oh yes.
If you're that serious an audiophile, you'll already have digital everything from the CD ROM to the amplifier. Any DAC will be inside whatever expensive amplifier you have, with nowt but raw digital data being sent via SPDIF, digital coax, fibre, or whatever digital output is on the back of your PC. This is without going into skip and jitter prevention technology like, say, a buffer.
The days of analogue audio cables running from the back of the CD ROM to your sound card through the copious RF noise inside your PC ended some 10 years ago.
Re: Bonkers? oh yes.
Only a snip at $10,000USD or so.
Oh, and $770 for the remote control. And another three thousand Amurrican bucks if you want "High-Resolution Sound Quality", whatever the hell that means.
Perfectly suited for this set-up, then.

Re: Baffled...
You would be surprised. While running the mobile chipset takes up some juice, and running wifi takes up some juice, running the portable AP does seem to eat vastly more juice than both put together. The more data you transfer over it, the faster your battery flattens.
It's kind of telling that my Xperia Arc S only gets really red hot when I'm running the portable AP. So hot in fact, I've had it stop charging itself - apparently this is a safety feature.
Kind of annoying that since the ICS update, it randomly turns the AP off though. Ho hum, that is a different issue.
Quick query...
25 watt speakers? Or should that be 2.5 watts?
Assuming RMS and not some bullshit PMPO measurement, 25 watts is less "annoyance on public transport" and more "let's have a party on the bus" levels of noise.

If they had, they'd know that the wifi hotspot feature might as well be called "the energy vampire". It eats batteries for breakfast. Alright if, like me, you have £80 worth of Energizer XPAL in your pocket, but that's just more dicking about on top of the dicking about with a phone when what you really want to use is a tablet.
Plus I've seen people with dual-SIM contract deals anyway. One for the phone, one for a dongle... or tablet, if you like. Ask your provider.

Google Webmaster Central has released a couple of updates: one to the API settings and one to the crawl errors feature.
Here's the sparkling new things you can do with your API settings:
- Crawl Rate: You can request that Googlebot crawl your site slower or faster than it normally would (the details can be found in our Help Center article about crawl rate control). If many of your sites are hosted on the same server and you know your server's capacity, you may want to update all sites at the same time. This now a trivial task using the Webmaster Tools GData API.
- Geographic Location: If your site is targeted towards a particular geographic location but your domain doesn't reflect that (for example with a .com domain), you can provide information to help us determine where your target users are located.
- Preferred Domain: You can select which is the canonical domain to use to index your pages. For example, if you have a site like www.example.com, you can set either example.com or www.example.com as the preferred domain to use. This avoids the risk of treating both sites differently.
- Enhanced Image Search: Tools like the Google Image Labeler allow users to tag images in order to improve Image Search results. Now you can opt in or out for all your sites in a breeze using the Webmaster Tools API.
For the crawl error feature, you now get to see the URL of the inbound link that is linking to an error page.

Second man injured in Gilford bob house explosion wakes up
Kevin Fitzpatrick is recovering at his Manchester home after he was injured in a bob house explosion on Lake Winnipesaukee early Sunday morning. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
Ryan Gagne, 26, of Pelham, woke up for the first time Monday since the propane heater in his newly purchased bob house exploded on the ice of Lake Winnipesaukee shortly after 2 a.m. Sunday, according to his sister, Ashley Gagne.
Gagne suffered second-degree burns to his hands and his upper body in the explosion, which was sparked when Gagne apparently woke up and tried to light the stove, according to his companion in the bob house, Kevin Fitzpatrick, who was also seriously burned but was released from a Laconia hospital Sunday.
Gagne was flown by helicopter to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, where he was listed in critical condition Sunday. On Monday, as he was sedated, doctors lowered a probe into his lungs to look for burn damage but found none, Ashley Gagne said.
"He woke up today," she said. "They expect him to recover fully, though he'll have to have some skin grafts on his hands, and it looks like a long recovery."
Gagne, who runs Gagne Landscaping in Pelham with Fitzpatrick, is having some problems dealing with his injuries, his sister said.
"He feels lucky to be alive," she said. "But him just sitting on a bed with nothing to do is not good. He's the type of person that needs to be busy."
"I just thank God the whole bob house didn't blow," said Gagne's father, Richard Gagne.
Fitzpatrick was recovering at his Manchester home Monday, having suffered second-degree burns to his hands and head, some of which have partially closed one of his eyes.
In Gilford, authorities were still investigating the explosion Monday. An investigator from the state Fire Marshal's office was at the bob house in the morning, said Gilford fire Lt. Jeff Madon.
Investigators are looking into whether the propane heater and its accompanying propane cook stove were installed with proper attachments, and whether the bob house was vented properly, he said.
Fish and Game Lt. Robert Bryant said propane heaters and cookers are not uncommon in bob houses on lakes. Other heating sources are also commonly used, such as small wood stoves, he said.
State and local authorities neither recommend nor discourage the use of propane stoves, though they strongly encourage proper use of any heating source on the ice, he said. Fumes from many heating sources, if not vented properly, can be lethal.
"People use (propane stoves) all the time," Bryant said. "They just need to be careful that all the hookups are tighter, and that whatever the setup, there is no excess gas anywhere."
Bob houses are not subject to safety inspections. "They're basically just like tents as far as we're concerned," Madon said.
"We can't tell people whether to have one kind of stove or another, all we can do is tell people whatever they use, make sure they install it properly, or have it installed properly. Obviously there are plenty of perfectly safe, operational systems out on the ice now."
Investigators are looking at whether Gagne's bob house was vented properly. There was one manually operated vent at the top, but propane stoves need venting low in the bob house, as propane sinks.
"I'm not sure if that vent would have helped," Madon said.
"That's all part of the investigation."

A bill has been introduced in the House of Representatives that would allow firearms to be owned by only a few non-military agencies. H.R.4934, the Regulatory Agency Demilitarization Act, would prohibit federal agencies from purchasing or using a firearm. The only exemptions from the act would be the Departments of Defense, Justice, and Homeland Security, the military departments, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the U.S. Capitol Police, the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, and the Central Intelligence Agency.
Most, if not all, of the federal land management agencies have law enforcement officers and special agents that have access to weapons.
No action has been taken on the bill since it was introduced on June 23, 2014, so it has a very long road ahead before it becomes law. And the do-nothing Congress rarely passes legislation, so don't hold your breath on this being voted on in the House and Senate any time soon. But it does have 31 cosponsors after being introduced by Rep. Chris Stewart from Utah.

looping problem in UNIX script please help
I have a problem that drove me crazy last couple days I know I have to use loop structures but I can't figure out how to put the right pieces together. I'm not asking for a complete answer because I want to learn so please help me out
The problem says
write a shell script that will take the information from two files and combine into another file
I created both files in vi and they are
David 734.854.5643
Roberto 313.432.4532
Sally 267.423.5412
Mary 435.432.7654
Ted 324.642.6743
Alice 234.576.3245
Frank 342.465.6754
and the second file is
Roberto Tuesday 2
Sally Monday 8
Ted Sunday 16
Alice Wednesday 23
David Thursday 10
Mary Saturday 14
Frank Friday 15
The output file should be like this:
Name----------------On-Call--------------------Phone------------------Start Time
Sally---------------- Monday ---------------267.423.5412-----------------8am
I noticed right away that there is a common thing between the two files (the name), and I thought i could use for loop to cut pieces using the day of the week because I have to sorted in a specific order starting from Monday so I thought this loop might work:
for day in Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
grep $day file2
I know it is not complete but I just wanted you to know how I should do the sort. And there is another problem which is the time. in the file is in 24 hours format i have to convert it to 12 hours format.
And that is it for now I want you guys just to tell me how to start and how to put the pieces together.
your help us appreciated
Thank you very much

This sounds a lot like a homework question, which are not allowed on this forum. Therefore, I will be closing this thread.
You are correct that you can use grep to find which lines contain a given word. Have you considered using cut or awk in order to get the rest of the information on that line?

"Thought I'd like this book more...."
I really liked Something Borrowed and Something Blue, but this book doesn't really present any new material. It's slow and seems to focus on what I think is insignificant details. I found myself thinking "just get on with the plot!"
No, I think I might have just set high expectations because I loved the first two books by Emily Giffin.
Hmm, not sure. She's good at distinguishing between male and female characters, but I didn't enjoy the airy, ditzy tone she gave the female characters. It didn't seem necessary. I'm not drawn by her voice, I find myself spacing out when I listened to this.
Honestly, I think I zoned out for what parts I did read. I really liked the story of how she met her two love interests and when her best friend reveals she's expecting, but the rest of it is just fluff. ( I'm almost through the first installment).
I'm kinda disappointed and will probably return this book. I just can't get into it. I liked the concept of the story, but it's just moving so slowly. I thought it would be fast paced like Something Borrowed and Something Blue (which I thought was a little slower, but still a good pace). Maybe because I read them on paper, that was easier. I'm not sure.
"A Close Second..."
After reading "Ten Tiny Breaths", I was eager to pick up another audiobook by this author. I like this book, but it took me a little while to get into Livvy's character after her being a dormant character in the first book. The narrator used the same voice almost for both Livvy and Casey, which made it hard to distinguish...don't let that deter you, though. I'd still recommend this book to a friend.
I liked the courtship between Livvy and Ashton. Connor seemed nice too, but..well, you'll see. Definitely liked the quick dialogue.
The beginning seemed really forced and not very realistic. It seems like Livvy was pushed into being the stereotypical college freshman and that bothered me, but I guess it works with the rest of the story..I don't want to give anything away.
I really like when Ashton and Livvy start admitting their feelings for one another.
Yes, but not as much as "Ten Tiny Breaths". I liked the story, but wasn't as compelled to pick it up every waking moment of my spare time.
Not a bad followup for "Ten Tiny Breaths" but could've been a tad more realistic, especially in the beginning. I do like where the plot goes, but it's more predictable. You should still check it out!
I would definitely recommend this book to a friend. It's the perfect amount of chick lit and drama without being overly one or the other. There's a nice twist to it and the plot isn't incredibly predictable.
I don't think I had a favorite. I liked how all of the characters interacted and it was quick, sharp wit that was funniest. None of the dialogue sounded forced.
I listened to "One Tiny Lie" and found the dialogue to be the same. I would love to read more of her works.
YES! There aren't really any slow parts to this one. "One Tiny Lie" had a little more slowness, but not much. I found myself tuning in late at night when I should probably be heading to bed, but I just couldn't wait to figure out what was gonna happen next!
Definitely worth trying. This book is good for 20-somethings who are caught between full out erotic novels and teeny bopper romances. It's a good, quick listen/read that I would definitely listen to again.
"A Trip Around the World in a Few Short Hours!"
I really liked all the places/settings. It kept the book interesting.
Eat Pray Love--I haven't read it, but it's similar in the sense that this girl is traveling around the world to really find herself. It's a nice concept and didn't feel too played out.
I can't think of any particular ones off the top of my head, but there was some really quick and sharp humor (like off handed remarks) that were just really funny. This narrator did an awesome job capturing all of the accents from around the world and grasping the true personality of each character.
Yes, I probably could've. I just wish it wasn't abridged.
I wish the unabridged version was on Audible. This version seemed rushed and not every sequence of events added up. I would probably want to read the book version of this to get the spots I feel are missing.
"Another Enjoyable Spencer Quinn Book"
Yes. I should've reviewed this right after I finished it instead of two months later.
I love Chet. He's got such a cute and funny personality. It reminds me of what I think is going on in my dog's mind.
Slow. Relaxed. Passable.
Shoot, I wish I recalled more of the book to answer this one.
It was a good book and I enjoyed it at the time, but I still think they should find a different narrator. This narrator's voice drops off into mumbles at the end of the phrase and it happens too quickly to predict it and turn the volume up.
"Not the Direction I Was Expecting..."
I really liked the beginning of the book. I loved the beginning of their romance. I wasn't expecting it to take the turn it did and after awhile, it just seemed like the author was ruminating on this choice that needs to be made. It's just really depressing and stagnant after the first 1/4 ends.
I think it would have been more enjoyable if this choice wasn't lingering for so long. I mean, it makes sense why the choice takes so long to make and that's the nature of the issue (sorry, I'm trying really hard not to give anything away), but I got bored really fast.
Maybe? I liked him as a narrator. He captured the voices of the characters really well.
Maybe if they were able to base it off an abridged version. This story really doesn't need to be told in more than an hour.
Wasn't expecting this book to be so depressing and the latter half seems to be written in a different style than the first half. Like, the first half has momentum and is uplifting and really easy to get through. Once that part finishes, it drags on and on and left me sitting there like "is it finished yet??"
"Just Not Into It"
Hmm, that's a good one. I really REALLY wanted to like this book, but it just didn't click for me. I don't think I wasted my time reading it, but after awile, I wasn't really interested anymore. There were too many characters to follow and I'm not big on violence, so I didn't really want to hear about it.
Nothing was really disappointing. I still think the book was really well written and that the narrator did a good job reading it, it just wasn't for me.
I haven't but I did like his narration. He gave it the medieval feel it deserves.
It was worth checking out, but I don't think I'll read any of the other ones.
I scoured through all the reviews before using a credit on this. 33 hours is a long commitment! Again, I have nothing poor to say about the way the book was written or how it was performed, it just wasn't my cup of tea. I like and have read/enjoyed other works like this, but I just couldn't get into this one.
"Good, but seems like a re-cap"
I really liked the narrator for this book. He has a lot of emotion and really captures the feel of the conversations without being over the top.
I would. I like the plot of her stories and there are some funny moments that are written well.
The way he was able to differentiate between characters (not just accents, but the mood and tone as well) and the emphasis on the emotion being conveyed--without being over the top. There are a couple scenes where Layken is really upset with Will and he just captures it perfectly.
Not really. There's nothing about this book that's new from the first two books. It's just in Will's perspective. I won't give it away, but there's one thing in particular that happens that the audience didn't know about from Layken's perspective, but otherwise, nothing new.
I would recommend the book if you're just not done listening to the series, otherwise, you could skip it and not miss anything. I had this on in the backround while doing other stuff and was still able to follow it because none of the plot was new. The only real difference is that we don't hear more from Gavin, Will and Layke's brothers, or Layken's best friend.
"Great Follow-Up!"
It's close to the top. It's a really nice follow-up to Slammed, the first book. I was originally drawn to this book because I enjoy poetry and it was part of an Audible book sale. I liked it so much, I scooped up the second book. I can't wait for the third/final installment!
I know that the stories aren't quite similar, but the characters remind me of the ones in The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. Just the youthfulness of Lake and Will resonates for some reason.
I haven't. Kamran Khan has a very soothing and relaxing voice. I found that I could focus better if I increased the speed of his narration just a bit.
Sometimes things in people's lives don't happen in chronological order...
Really great read. I would definitely read this series again!
"Cute, but Predictable"
I thought this book was cute, but I think it tried really hard to be one of those romance novels that's super passionate, but it didn't quite get there. The first part of the story is really slow--like alright, we get that this is a forbidden romance. I really enjoy hockey, and I was looking for there to be more in the way of describing some of the game and how a team manager works, but I guess that wasn't really the point. You never know about how Faith got a hold of taking care of the team after Virgil dies, just that she's interested in Ty.
Overall, I think this story has a lot of potential, but could've panned out a bit more besides the romance part of it. I think it'd make a great film adaptation. The narration is pretty good. I like how Susan Bennett expresses worry/shock--it fits what I think the character sounds like.
Glad I got this book on sale.
"Great Story, but Narrator Got on my Nerves"
I really enjoyed this book although I thought I had bought the abridged version at first because you get thrown right into the middle of the character's life events and the story progresses quickly. The narrator's voice bugged me because she was really ditzy and delayed her narration. For example "Tell him to give me my books back!!......................she said." That wasn't a smooth flow of conversation. She also has an interesting accent. She pronounced Javier (Spanish: HAHV-yehr) HAY-vee-YAR and vague with a short a instead of a long a.
Overall the story itself was enjoyable. It's a nice short read and I liked it enough to pick up the second installment. I like poetry a lot and enjoyed the poetry and lyrics within the main story.
I bought this book on sale and I'm glad I did. It's worth checking out though!

Using Wearable Tech To Track Gun Use
This is yet another idea bound to fail because (264 comments)
criminals won't wear them when committing a crime. Even embedding the devices into the body would not work reliably as anything that can be put in can also be taken out. I bet an EMP device could also be used to disable them without invasive surgery. What you'll end up with is a bunch of data on people who are not committing crimes, and a scant few pieces of data on the dumbest of the dumb who would fire a gun with one of these on.

Jennifer Lopez Recycles Yellow Bikini for Family Pool Day with Boyfriend Casper Smart (PHOTOS)
A suit so nice, she wore it twice.
Jennifer Lopez dug out her teeny-weeny yellow bikini again on Thursday when she hit the pool at her Miami, FL, hotel with beau Casper Smart. Joined by her 4-year-old twins Max and Emme, the "On The Floor" songstress was spotted flashing her rock hard bod as she splashed about in the pool.
When was the last time J.Lo was caught sporting the sexy two piece?
As Celebuzz previously reported, the 42-year-old singer slipped into the same bikini while tanning in Fortaleza, Brazil with her 25-year-old boyfriend Casper Smart in July.
At the time, the former American Idol judge was spotted lounging by the pool with her man before kicking off of her international tour with Enrique Iglesias.
What do you think of J.Lo's fashion repeat? Is it tacky or trendy? Sound off in the comments, below.
