CASCO TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Authorities have seized 11 pounds of candy bars made with hashish that were intended for sale at a Michigan concert.
The Allegan County Sheriff's Department said Thursday in a release that the 48 hash bars and 42 hash balls were found earlier this week in a motor home during a traffic stop in Casco Township. The drugs were sent to the state police crime lab for tests.
The driver and a passenger are from Denver and were being held in the Allegan County Jail. They told police they were headed to Rothbury for the Electric Forest Festival.
Each candy bar and candy ball was to be sold for $5 at the concert.
The Allegan County prosecutor's office was reviewing the charges.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"We're depending on God; he's everything we need. What's more, our hearts brim with joy since we've taken for our own his holy name. Love us, God, with all you've got — that's what we're depending on." (Psalm 33:20-22 MSG)
This devotional is based on Kay Warren's new book, "Choose Joy: Because Happiness Isn't Enough."
Finding joy is a challenge for me. I'm not naturally an upbeat person; I'm more of a melancholy. When I talk about joy, I'm not doing so from the perspective of a generally peppy person who never has a bad day. In fact, it's because of my own inability to live with joy that led me to explore why my experiences didn't line up with Scripture.
My problem was my definition of joy. I thought joy meant feeling good all the time. That's impossible! Even for those who are naturally upbeat and optimistic, that's impossible. We have to start somewhere more realistic — and close to Scripture.
So here's the definition I've come up with from studying Scripture:
Joy is the settled assurance that God is in control of all the details of my life, the quiet confidence that ultimately everything is going to be alright, and the determined choice to praise God in every situation.
You'll find nothing in that definition about happy feelings, because, as we all know, happiness is fleeting and temporary.
We tend to think that life comes in hills and valleys. In reality, it's much more like train tracks. Every day of your life, wonderful, good things happen that bring pleasure and contentment and beauty to you. At the exact same time, painful things happen to you or those you love that disappoint you, hurt you, and fill you with sorrow. These two tracks — both joy and sorrow — run parallel to each other every single moment of your life.
That's why, when you're in the midst of an amazing experience, you have a nagging realization that it's not perfect. And while you're experiencing something painful, there's the glorious realization that there is still beauty and loveliness to be found. They're inseparable.
If you look down train tracks into the brightness of the horizon, the tracks become one. You can't distinguish them as two separate tracks. That's how it will be for us, too. One day, our parallel tracks of joy and sorrow will merge into one. The day we meet Jesus Christ in person and see the brightness of who he is, it will all come together for us. Then it will all make complete sense.

Do you ever feel tired, drained or "beat-up" and just don't know why? That's because every day you're fighting an unseen spiritual war. You can't see it, but its effects are very real. In his 7 session Study Kit "The Invisible War: Winning the Battle of Temptation," Pastor Rick will teach you how to overcome the three predictable types of temptations that Satan uses to entice and defeat you: Passion, Possession, and Position.
Why is everything in life so hard? Why does doing the right thing often feel like a battle? In this new series, Pastor Rick shares insights from God's Word about the unseen spiritual forces working against us; the invisible war between good and evil. This series will help you win the battle within.

Fukudome's first hurdle: Get consistent playing time
By GORDON WITTENMYER Staff firstname.lastname@example.com February 18, 2011 11:26PM
Updated: September 24, 2012 6:25AM
MESA, Ariz. — On the eve of the Cubs' first full-squad, full-speed workouts, in walked one of the biggest questions of the upcoming season.
Is Kosuke Fukudome a leadoff hitter, an every-day right fielder, a platoon player, a defensive bench guy, an April-only starter, an All-Star, a payroll drain, an asset, a liability, none of the above or all of the above?
As Fukudome arrived Friday at Fitch Park for his first spring day of what's sure to be his last year as a Cub, his status was as muddied as anyone's in camp.
With a $14.5 million salary, he's the fourth-highest-paid player on the roster in 2011, but by most measures he ranks no higher than fourth among just the outfielders in camp.
A lifetime .335 hitter in April and a .244 hitter when it's not April, Fukudome arrives back in camp just a few months after the Cubs looked fruitlessly into trading him and most of his remaining contract.
But he also has a manager who likes him as a lefty leadoff option, and he had such an uncharacteristically strong August (.365, 1.117 OPS) that he and many around the Cubs seem to forget his .169 slump after Sept. 1.
''I was thrilled with the way he finished,'' manager Mike Quade said. ''I just want him to build on what he did for us last year.''
How well he'll do that, how much opportunity he'll get to do that and exactly what role he'll occupy are in flux as he faces a stiff challenge for playing time from second-year outfielder Tyler Colvin and challenges from Jeff Baker and Blake DeWitt for at-bats at the top of the order.
''I don't think about the other guys,'' Fukudome said through his interpreter Friday. ''I just need to do what I can do. I just need to take care of myself first so I can be a better player. . . . It was nice to finish strong, but I do need to continue doing what I did throughout [this] year.''
He said he didn't pay attention to trade rumors last fall, and his decision to buy a condominium on Lake Shore Drive after the season suggested as much.
Fukudome admits it was ''difficult'' to adjust to inconsistent playing time, even in his third season in the majors.
''But I learned a lesson,'' he said. ''If it happens this year, then I can deal with it a lot better.''
But that's not his plan.
''I'm definitely not satisfied with where I was,'' he said. ''The bottom line is I'm getting better, little by little. I just need to put everything together.''
Todd Ricketts, the Cubs' ownership point man for their new spring-training facility, said the team expects to select an architect for the project by mid-March and break ground in west Mesa in the fall.
''I'd hate to commit to 2013 [spring opening], but 2014 for sure,'' Ricketts said.
He said naming rights are open for discussion, and plans call for some features of the new spring ballpark to reflect Wrigley Field features.
† The Cubs plan to honor Ron Santo with a pregame ceremony March 10 at HoHoKam Stadium.

A Third Perspective: It's time to legalize marijuana in New Hampshire
On Jan. 1, 2014, thousands of Coloradans eagerly lined up to make their first legal purchase of recreational marijuana. Amendment 64, a ballot measure that passed in 2012 with 55 percent of Colorado voters in favor, legalized the recreational use of marijuana and permits adults aged 21 years or older to purchase up to an ounce of it. The law also places the onus of regulating the manufacture, distribution and sale of marijuana on the state government. This unprecedented experiment in governmental regulation of weed is still in its infancy, but all signs are indicating that what's good for pot enthusiasts is good for government-and more than likely good for society.
In the first week of the law's implementation, Colorado marijuana dispensaries witnessed staggering sales. The 37 dispensaries that were able to meet the state's requirements by Jan. 1 made a total of $1 million on the first day and roughly $5 million over the course of the week. Regulators have projected an eye-popping $600 million in marijuana sales for Colorado dispensaries in 2014, $70 million of which the state expects to receive in tax revenue.
A provision in the Colorado ballot measure ensures that the first $40 million collected in taxes will be spent directly on the state's public education system while the remainder will be used regulate marijuana distribution, refocus drug enforcement efforts and revitalize flagging drug awareness programs.
That millions of dollars are now being poured (legally) into Colorado's economy and public schools is well known, but where this money is no longer going deserves greater attention. Illicit drug dealers, suppliers and gangs within and outside of Colorado will see their sales plummet by hundreds of millions of dollars in 2014.
Selling weed is the lifeblood of the vast majority of gangs in America; Colorado's decision to cut off illegitimate cash flows will have a beneficial social impact across the country. Gangs will have less money to spend on weapons and, more poignantly, less to offer potential recruits: teenagers at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder who join on the promise of making easy cash.
Consequently, authorities will no longer need to arrest, prosecute and incarcerate as many gang members as they do today, which will save precious resources and preserve a felony-free future for countless young Americans. Extrapolating even further, fewer funds will reach the insidious cartels in Central and South America, and this will eventually cripple their ability to wage violent wars over supply routes to the U.S. and sap their motivation for doing so.
Colorado is to be the first of many states (Washington is next) that will soon enjoy the profound economic and social benefits that come with legal marijuana. New Hampshire has taken note; the House of Representatives passed a marijuana legalization bill in January that was modeled on the Colorado legislation. However, the bill is unlikely to make it through the state senate and, if by some miracle it passes, Governor Maggie Hassan has publicly expressed her intention to veto the law.
This raises the question: why? Weed is no more stigmatized in New Hampshire than in Colorado or Washington (in fact some studies have indicated that New Hampshire has greater per capita use of marijuana than Colorado), and New Hampshire could certainly benefit from additional tax revenue.
Opponents of marijuana legalization have long argued that the drug (dare I say plant) creates a dependency in the user, and that pot is the proverbial "gateway drug." This argument, more appropriately titled a myth, has never been grounded in science and is simply not tenable. Proponents of this belief point to the fact that marijuana users are statistically more likely to have tried cocaine than non-marijuana users, but this is entirely misleading. The Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences has publicly stated: "Because it is the most widely used illicit drug, marijuana is predictably the first illicit drug most people encounter. Not surprisingly, most users of other illicit drugs have used marijuana first. ... There is no conclusive evidence that the drug effects of marijuana are causally linked to the subsequent abuse of other illicit drugs."
Governor Hassan should evaluate the science, or lack thereof, behind the claims of marijuana prohibitionists. If any semblance of a gateway effect exists, it arises out of marijuana's illegality, which forces casual smokers to purchase from dealers that in many cases have access to harder drugs. To place marijuana in the same realm as cocaine, heroine and methamphetamine is ridiculous; it's time to end this myopic strategy. New Hampshire has every reason-economic, social and otherwise-to join Colorado and embrace the growing national trend. Just as with alcohol, we will look back with head-scratching bemusement and wonder why governments outlawed marijuana in the first place.

While details have yet to emerge from backstage, it does appear that the story line between Dixie Carter and the new baby face investory will be a focal point on Impact Wrestling for much of 2014. Some are even saying that it will stretch to Bound For Glory, which is taking place in October.
Kurt Angle tore his knee cartilage during his match against Bobby Roode at Bound For Glory.
Prior to becoming the voice of WWE, Michael Cole worked as a journalist for CBS Radio. Presidential nominee Michael Dukakis, who famously lost the election race to George Bush, was his first major assignment. He had to explore the losing side of things in the piece.
Michael Cole will not be on commentary for Smackdown this week. Instead, JBL will be joined on television by Josh Mathews. No word yet on why Cole did not work the event, but there does not appear to be any backstage heat from WWE towards their long time commentator.
Since Miz is someone that the company wants to keep around for a long time, WWE is experimenting with him as a commentator on Smackdown this week, where the former heavyweight champion will be joining Michael Cole and JBL for the entire episode.
WWE purposely had Summer Rae and Rosa Mendes wear similar outfits on Monday Night Raw as a rib to Michael Cole for mixing up the two performers the previous week.
Since they are friends in real life, Michael Cole flew down to Houston this week to do commentary at Reality of Wrestling Christmas Chaos, an event promoted by Booker T. The two of them requested and received permission from WWE to do so.
For some reason, Jerry Lawler was not present on Tuesday when WWE taped the episode of Monday Night Raw that is set to air on December 23rd. Michael Cole and JBL worked the commentating booth as a duo instead.
During Monday Night Raw, a peculiar scene took place where JBL, Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole were taking pictures of themselves. That segment was done because Vince McMahon wanted to take a jab at Barack Obama for doing that at the funeral of Nelson Mandela.

Wales set to approach Giggs
The Football Association of Wales will speak to Manchester United this week about involving Ryan Giggs in their coaching set-up when manager John Toshack quits. Toshack is expected to confirm his departure this week, although he may agree to remain in charge for next month's qualifying doubleheader against Bulgaria and Switzerland so as not to leave his country in the lurch. As revealed in Sportsmail yesterday, Toshack has recommended Giggs as his successor and the FAW now plan to try to lure the United winger into his first coaching role. Although it is highly unlikely Giggs will consider managing his country until his playing career is over —and would be discouraged from doing so by his club boss Sir Alex Ferguson - the FAW are understandably keen to get him involved. One possibility under discussion involves asking Giggs to be involved with a new - or caretaker - coach for the remainder of this international season. That would involve Giggs teaming up with Wales for matches and working in a new set-up but would not lumber him with the responsibility of scouting players or picking squads. Such an arrangement is much more likely to appeal to the former Wales captain, and indeed to United, at a time when Giggs is still trying to extend his playing days.
Ian Ladyman, Daily Mail
The Daily Mirror claims another veteran, goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, will invoke a one-year contract extension if he passes the 30 appearances marker this season.
In transfer speculation, The Mirror says reputed United target Gary Cahill will cost the Reds - and any other suitor - £17.5million after the defender made his England debut and activated a contractual clause which boosted his minimum transfer fee.

Robbery reported at McDonald's in Massaponax
Spotsylvania County sheriff's deputies are seeking a man wanted in a reported robbery of the McDonald's restaurant in the Massaponax area.
Capt. Mike Harvey of the sheriff's office said details of the reported holdup are still under investigation and no one has been taken into custody and there were no injuries.
He said that other retail stores in the area were notified about the report, but that he doesn't believe any businesses are closed as a result.

Practicality and convenience are where today's large capacity scooters come into their own.

The Piaggio X7 250 ie is halfway between a full-on maxi scooter and a lightweight city scooter, so in theory should offer comfort and a bit of class with some traffic busting ability. It manages it too – it feels substantial and quality but slices traffic like a 50cc scooter.

The Aprilia Atlantic 500 is somewhat boat-like as super scooters go, and heavy with it, but the Atlantic is nevertheless remarkably sprightly. 2005's updates modernised the look and updated the frame and suspension. The Aprilia Atlantic 500 is roomy, stable, practical, rides well with great brakes and lots of nice little touches. Even hardcore bikers could have fun on this.

|A Randomized Comparison of Sublingual Buprenorphine to Morphine Sulfate in the Treatment of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)
|Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine whether buprenorphine is a beneficial, safe, cost effective treatment alternative to morphine sulfate in the treatment of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS).
|Detailed Description
Neonatal abstinence syndrome is a condition that affects newborns who are exposed to chronic opioid drugs while they are in a mother's uterus (womb) prior to birth. The current standard of care treatment includes morphine sulfate. Buprenorphine is a drug used in adults to treat narcotic dependence and withdrawal, but has not yet been approved for use in newborns as a treatment alternative for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. This investigation is designed to measure if sublingual (under the tongue) buprenorphine is able to reduce hospital length of stay and decrease number of days of drug treatment currently required in treatment of NAS. Another goal will be to understand buprenorphine as a cost effective treatment for NAS.

Jama'atu Ansarul Muslimina fi Biladis Sudan ("Vanguard for the Protection of Muslims in Black Africa"), more commonly known as Ansaru, is an Islamist militant splinter group of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Founded during January 2012, Ansaru's membership distanced itself from Boko Haram because of ideological differences in the interpretation of Islamic law. In addition, the formation of Ansaru is attributed to dissatisfaction with the leadership of Boko Haram under Abubakar Shekau. Ansaru seeks the re-establishment of a Muslim state similar to the historical Sokoto Caliphate founded by Usman dan Fodio in the 19th century. Ansaru has openly stated its intent to target Western nationals and interests within their areas of operation who are either directly or indirectly supporting military operations against regional and/or international Islamist militant groups. These threats have manifested in a number of kidnapping incidents targeting expatriate workers within northern Nigeria.While the group has not been responsible for a large number of attacks, its operations reach beyond Nigeria's borders. Ansaru could also extend al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb's network further south, for example into Cameroon.
Differences with Boko Haram
Though both Boko Haram and Ansaru are aligned to a similar Salafist ideology, their are signifcant differences between the two groups related to targets of attacks and geographical areas of operations.
Whereas Boko Haram's objectives tend to be geographically confined, namely the over-throw of the Nigerian government, which it accuses of incompetence, corruption and advancing the interests of the oil-rich south to the neglect of the Muslim-majority north, Ansaru's agenda favours a wider regional focus. In a video released by the group and distributed to Agence Nouakchott Internationale (Mauritanian News Agency), on 26 November 2012, Ansaru stated that its objective was the creation of an Islamic Caliphate extending from Niger and incorporating northern Nigeria and Cameroon, in addition to defending African Muslims from alleged persecution by Western-backed governments.
Ansaru has also distanced itself from the modus operandi employed by Boko Haram, whereby civilians are targeted and killed, consequently resulting in significant civilian casualties across northern, eastern and central Nigeria. It should be noted that the formation of Ansaru followed the 20 January 2012 Boko Haram attacks in Kano that resulted in the death of approximately 185 people. Ansaru viewed this attack as being un-Islamic and undignified. In contrast, Ansaru targets remains focused on Western nationals and interests as well as Nigerain security personnel and buildings which are viewed as supportive to military operations against Islamic militant groups.
An additional difference is the nature of attacks used by the two groups. Whereas Boko Haram utilises armed assaults on communities, vehicle-borne explosive devices and suicide bombers with the intent to cause mass casualties, Ansaru uses more sophisticated tactics such as trained and coordinated militant detachment to attack secured residential compounds, detention facilities and convoys, therewith limiting casualties to specific pre-determined targets. Ansaru's operational execution of operations are similar to that of AQIM, therewith indicating an association between the two groups.
Information pertaining to Anaru's structure and leadership is unverified, but does indicate a composition of former Boko Haram commanders opposed to the Boko Haram leader Abu Shekau. Ansaru, by means of video releases, has identified its leader as Abu Usmatul al-Ansari. According to TRAC contributor Jacob Zenn this is likely to be a nom de plume, and that al-Ansari may actually be former Boko Haram commander, Mamaan Nur. However, it is also speculated that al-Ansari is an alias for Khalid al-Barnawi, a Boko Haram member with alleged ties to both AQIM, and its predecessor, the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC). He is accused of being the masterminded behind several kidnappings in North Africa as well as the establishment of training camps in Algeria. al-Barnawi is rumoured to currently operate in Nigeria's Kano region. Though leadership information remains unverified it does direct towards a continual connection to Boko Haram and AQIM.
Protecting Muslims
Unlike Boko Haram, Ansaru believes that the killing of fellow Muslims is a "sin," "inexcusable," and "inhuman;" their primary reason for leaving Boko Haram. In his YouTube appearances, Khalid al Barnawi stated that the Ansaru members would never kill innocent non-Muslim civilians or non-Muslim security and police forces, unless in cases of self defense. Al Barnawi also expressed that the perceived inability of the Nigerian government to protect its Muslim citizens from becoming victims of religious violence was another important motivator in the creation of Ansaru.
Transnational Ties
Ansaru is closely tied to several militant and jihadist groups through its leader, Khalid al Barnawi. Al Barnawi's alias Abu Ussamata al Ansary former senior Boko Haram commander in Northern Nigeria; the center of Ansaru's operations was previously a member of AQIM where he trained militants in kidnapping tactics in Algeria. Al Barnawi was reportedly coached by Mokhtar Belmokhtar, then a senior AQIM commander now leader of Signers in Blood Battalion and Mourabitounes, on methods to effectively target foreign citizens and companies in Nigerian to expand AQIM's influence.
Ansaru's militants may have also been directly trained by AQIM members, according to the account of one Ansaru member who states he trained directly under the supervision of Senior AQIM commander Abdelhamid Abou Zeid at AQIM camps in Algeria and Mauritania. Although Boko Haram and Ansaru are now separate groups, one member of Ansaru stated that the two organizations actively work together.
New Ansaru members are actively recruited through Islamic colleges and universities in Sudan and Nigeria, and trained in AQIM run camps in Algeria and Mauritania, according to one Ansaru member. Training for new members is intense, that in one case, two out of a group of five students died during a six month training camp administered by AQIM.
Areas of Operation
Nigeria: Katsina, Sokoto, Kebbi, Kano, Kogi, and Bauchi States
Attack Style
Ansaru's attacks have consisted of raids by gunmen against hardened targets. A platoon-sized element typically assaults the compound where hostages will be abducted, or prisoners freed, before withdrawing. Explosives have not been used in Ansaru raids, except to breach barriers. Such attacks require different capabilities and preparations than Boko Haram's suicide bombings do. Ansaru's targets include state-aligned security installations in Nigeria's major urban centres as well as military convoys, such as the 26 November 2012 attack on the headquarters of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), located in Abuja's Apo district, by approximately 40 Ansaru militants.
In addition, Ansaru uses kidnapping as an operational tactic, with several kidnappings being linked or claimed by the group, Examples are
- Linked: May 2011: kidnapping of a British and Italian national in the city of Birnin Kebbi in the state of Kebbi state. The hostages were executed following failed international attempts to free them;
- Linked: January 2012: kidnapping of a German engineer in the city of Kano. The hostage was executed following failed international attempts to free him;
- Claimed: 19 December 2012: the French engineer, Francis Colump, employed by the French-owned energy company Vergnet, that was kidnapped from a secure compound in the town of Rimi; and
- Claimed:18 February 2013: kidnapping of seven foreign expatriate workers employed by the Lebanese-owned Setraco construction company in the Jama'are Local Government Area of Bauchi State. The hostages were executed following military operations by the Nigerian government to free the hostages.
Ansaru displayed sophistication in the execution of the last two listed kidnappings, during which a group of between 20 and 30 militants attacked secured compounds using improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and high calibre rifles. In addition, Ansaru killing of hostages in response to failed security operations is similar to an AQIM counter insurgency stategy whereby killings are executed as to protect the possible identification of the kidnappers.
Video: 2013 JAMBS released a video to prove that seven construction workers abducted in Bauchi had been assassinated by the group. The group accompanied the above video video with a statement claiming that the British and the Nigerian government had tried to rescue the hostages. The British government denies the allegation claiming its planes spotted Nigeria were only engaging in transportation of Nigerian troops to Mali. Seven foreign construction workers from the UK, Lebanon, Greece and Italy were kidnapped on February 16th 2013 from a construction site in Bauchi state.
Video: 2012 Jama'at Ansarul Muslimina Fi Biladis Introduces itself via You Tube propaganda video.
Video: 2013 News report with photo montage of Ansaru members and hostages.
Video: On December 19, 2012, approximately 30 Ansaru militants attacked the compound of a French corporation in Rimi, Katsina State and kidnapped Francis Colump, a French engineer. Ansaru released statements that blamed France for precipitating the attack by banning Muslim citizens from wearing veils in public, and for planning military intervention in the escalating crisis in Mali. Ansaru threatened to continue its attacks against French citizens unless France ended the public ban on veils.

Misleading Ad
Here's another case of the underlying reality of what an ad is showing being out of sync with the message the ad is trying to deliver. A Canadian campaign commercial shows a shot of a smiling family accompanied by a voice over that says, "I want a premier who believes what I believe." But the family shown is an American family from Oregon. Oops.

not bad for the price2/10/2014
If it had a set of instuctions it would be best value for a modem/router. Otherwise not bad
great price need support2/4/2014
no information provided for installation but once I figured how to get the key I was abl to connect with ease. still unable to connect to the 168.. network to change the password. would of been great to have a installation manual or support contact info
Great deal for a cable router1/29/2014
Needed to purchase a cable router so I didn't have to pay the obscene monthly rental fee. When it comes to Time Warner, they have a 'minimal' list of models you're allowed to purchase (the models you can rent from them is much longer, go figure). So it was a matter of bargain hunting off the list. The Netgear is by far the best deal I have found for a Wireless-N router with cable modem support. Been using it for a couple weeks now and it performs just fine. Config is typical for a wifi router
Wish the signal were stronger1/11/2014
I'm not sure if it's my house, but the router signal doesn't seem to reach as far as I would like it to. If I'm upstairs in the opposite corner of the house, I sometimes loose signal and need to move closer (distance is probably 70 ft). I can't reposition the router because of where the cable line in is and there's no antenna booster to buy for this unit. Otherwise, I love the security functionality and have no problem connecting multiple devices to it.
Stock Cable Modem / Wireless Router Combo1/1/2014
This is a basic as it gets. However, if all you're looking for is a functional replacement of the cable modem that you get from your cable company, it is more than sufficient.
Netgear Nets It!12/25/2013
I have found that this modem/router is a wonderful product at an amazing price! Initially TWC used their unit in my home even though I had this unit. Their box was cutting in and out so I connected mine instead. I have had no problems since, and I saved myself a recurring usage charge. This purchase was definitely a win, and I would recommend it to anyone.
Works ok with tw but not too fast on the signal
This modem might not be compatible with Time Warne12/16/2013
I purchased this to replace my leased cable modem from Time Warner. It is probably newer than the leased one, but connectivity is not great. I am having a little difficulty on high speed internet signal being not stable. I might have to search for another alternative. I am happy about the seller since so helpful, but I have to wait and see if the problem will go away.
Does not work with comcast11/4/2013
The item did not perform as advertised, do not waste your money. I am still attempting to get a refund.
Does not work well with TimeWarner10/28/2013
Worked slow, some pages could not open with one click. Needed to click e few times. Some setting features listed in manual were missing on the device i purchased. The same computer I used with netGear surfed internet on AT&T's U-verse with no problem and the same computer worked great on TimeWarner with Motorola Modem.
Great product, great price10/25/2013
Extremely easy to set up. Was pleasantly surprised by speed and performance. Will buy a second one. Highly recommend.
It will pay for itself in just over 8 months10/24/2013
TWC first started charging for their cable modem last year, initially $3.99 monthly. Annoying, but tolerated after checking alternatives. When the monthly charge increased again to $5.99 I knew that I could find an alternative. This unit was on their list of supported equipment. Ordered it, installed it and it is more reliable than the modem that TWC had been charging me for. It's a no-brainer!
Great value cable modem/router10/24/2013
Since my cable/internet provider was requiring all customers to upgrade to DOCSIS 3 to continue service and the Netgear CG3000D is one of the models they support, I decided that for the low price I would try this modem. Overall, the setup was fast and easy. I notice the built in wireless has slightly less signal strength than the dedicated wireless router it replaced, but this isn't an issue within my house. The only issue I've had is that one Windows laptop had intermittent connection problems that seem to have gone away after disabling IPv6 on the modem.
Disappointed with poor performance10/6/2013
After getting this product I discovered that it was manufactured by Netgear for distribution directly to the ISPs. (Who in turn provide it to their customers.) In an effort to get support for this item, from Netgear, they tell you that you need to contact your ISP for any support. I have Time Warner Cable and, while they will provision this modem for use on their network, they will not support any modem NOT provided by them. Being an IT professional, who fully understands this type of equipment, I had no problems working through the issues in getting this modem to work the way I needed it to. Unfortunately, it exhibited many unexplainable sporadic outages in its connectivity with TWC's network. This resulted in much wait time and reloading of pages while working on the internet. Very frustrating! After about 5 daysof this and a bit of troubleshooting effort I decided to return it and get a more stable product. FYI... This modem is a full featured router/wireless gateway. Unlike other similar featured cable modems, it is NOT possible to turn off NAT and/or router features - if you would wish to use it strictly as a cable modem with your own router/gateway behind it. It IS possible to turn off the wireless radio.
Not stable and not recommend for Comcast9/29/2013
I'm an IT Engineer, so I have configured so many routers for my customers. I get this router for my home Comcast internet because it is only 49.99 for a cable modem DOCSIS 3.0, wireless router and gigabits LAN ports. All the good stuffs in one box with the decent price. However, I had nothing but trouble with this router, the router keeps freezing and I have to reboot it for getting it back up. Comcast does not support this model. I spent so many hours with both Netgear and Comcast technical support but that was no use, they both pointed their fingers to each other and I ended it by returning to Buy.com. I have not had a chance to try with any other ISP beside of Comcast though. A cable modem DOCSIS 3.0, wireless router and gigabits LAN ports, all the good stufsf for $49.99, it is too good to be true for a working device.0 Helpful | 1 Not Helpful
Great modem + router8/21/2013
I purchased this modem/router after some hesitation considering that the reviews weren't exactly spectacular on Amazon (yes, the "other" website). But to my surprise this equipment has certainly performed up to expectations. I use it for Time Warner cable and the setup was a breeze as has been the performance thus far (about 3 days). Definitely recommended.

Michael Saba, a shareholder of A1 Auto Trader Pty Ltd, has been disqualified from being involved in the business of a motor dealer for five years.
The Minchinbury dealership and its director have also been reprimanded by the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) following action taken by NSW Fair Trading.
Strict conditions have been imposed on A1 Auto Trader Pty Ltd requiring Mr Saba to resign as shareholder and to have no involvement whatsoever with the dealership for five years.
Mr Saba was previously disqualified from being involved in the business of a motor dealer for 12 months between 2011 and 2012.
A1 Auto Trader Pty Ltd was prosecuted on 11 September 2013 for operating a motor vehicle dealership at unlicensed premises.
The business was trading from Lot 20, 591 Carlisle Avenue, Minchinbury but was licensed to trade only from Lot 21, 591 Carlisle Avenue, Minchinbury.
A1 Auto Trader was convicted of unlicensed dealing and ordered to pay $1,335 fines and costs.
Subsequent inspections of the trader by NSW Fair Trading uncovered numerous contraventions of the Motor Dealers Act and Regulation.
This resulted in disciplinary action against Mr Saba, A1 Auto Trader Pty Ltd and its director Ms Souhad Sukkar. In addition, fines were issued to the dealership and Mr Saba personally to the value of $11,000.
Mr Saba, the business and Ms Sukkar appealed Fair Trading's decision to take disciplinary action to the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT).
On May 1, the NCAT made orders affirming the disqualification of Mr Saba, reprimanded the business and Ms Sukkar and imposed conditions on the motor dealer licence of A1 Auto Trader Pty Ltd.
Acting Fair Trading Commissioner Rob Vellar welcomed the decision.
"The motor dealer industry is a highly regulated industry and dealers are expected to adhere to all laws and regulations," he said.
"Dealers who flout the law must be removed from the industry. Buying a car is a major purchase and consumers have a right to expect the dealer they do business with is appropriately licensed."

Apple and Nike to introduce Nike Amp+ bracelet for iPods [image]Apple Computer and Nike plan to introduce a new wireless wristband device that will allow runners to interact with their iPods without constantly fiddling with the players' sweat-slicked Click-Wheel.
According to a report in Men'sHealth, the $80 device will act as a wrist-mounted Bluetooth remote and let users browse the songs on their iPod and check running times without that constant fumbling that often ensues while attempting to maintain focus on a run.
The device will sync up with the existing Nike+iPod running system, displaying information on an illuminated LED display "hidden beneath the matte-finish face of the bracelet." Meanwhile, the iPod may remain tucked away in a runner's pocket or armband.
Further features of the device, expected to be released under the name Nike Amp+, are unclear from the report. However, a single included marketing image suggests that gadget may hold potential to deliver one of the most frequently-requested components for the Nike+iPod system: a heart rate monitor.
Since beginning their foray into the wireless iPod accessory market earlier this July, Apple and Nike have sold over 450,000 of the Nike+iPod sport kits. The $30 system includes a wireless Bluetooth mode that inserts under the heel of a Nike+ compatible running shoe and a transceiver that plugs into an iPod nano.

The Nike+iPod kit gathers data such as distance, calories burned, time and pace. The data is then stored on the iPod and easily uploaded through iTunes to nikeplus.com, a personal service site where runners can track their own progress and challenge other runners.
In recent months, Nike has been working on new functionality for nikeplus.com, such as adding a new 'route finder' to the web software that will let runners easily map and share their favorite running routes.
The shoemaker has also been working to expand its Nike+ enabled footwear line, for which there are now over a dozen different models.
