text: 4.5 Unlocked iPhone Jimharrison | 07/05/2013 | See all Jimharrison's reviews (1) I purchased an Apple iPhone 4 16GB Sim Free Unlocked Mobile Phone The phone arrived fine and i have no complaints but unfortunately it did not work with my O2 sim card. I was a bit confused as it had clearly been advertised as unlocked which should mean that it would work with any sim card. To be fair to the seller the description did mention that it would only work with ''ORANGE, T-MOBILE, VIRGIN, EE NETWORK UK''. So the phone wasn't really unlocked at all but in fact locked to the EE network.I contacted the seller and returned the phone, he issued a full refund.I would recommend this seller and use them again as he accepted my return and refunded the money promptly.i would encourage them to clarify the wording in the advertisement about the phone being unlocked to avoid any further disappointed customers.

From the moment Beth started speaking, I knew she was the real deal. She had fresh, innovative ideas about the job world and her excitement was infectious. I left with renewed faith in my abilities, but it didn't end there - Beth followed up with valuable tools for my job search and together we went through an in-depth but enjoyable process of finding out what I wanted out of my career now. In the end, through following the steps that Beth outlined and by being consistently buoyed by her belief in my potential, I was able to find a job that aligns perfectly for my career goals at this time in my life."

Eileen Fisher Linen Stripe Cardigan - Regular 8 8
Too see through I wanted this in the lilac color, but it was not available in my size so I ordered the one in citron. It turned out to be a very bright bright yellow, and it was way too see through for me to want to wear this sweater, even though I knew I would have to wear a cami under it. So I am sending it back even though I truly love most of Eileen Fisher's and Garnet's clothing. The sweater was true to size. I just really didn't like the color or the amount of sheerness. May 30, 2014
Beautiful Color I love this sweater and have received many compliments when wearing it, I have the yellow and it is gorgeous. My only complaint is it snags very easily and I fear it will not last very long. That's why I didn't give it 5 stars for quality and value. I wish I could have also purchased the blue color, but it's sold out. May 13, 2014
Pretty but... This is a very pretty sweater but it needs a matching hyacinth colored cami. It seems to stretch easily and catches easily. That being said, I do love it. And I would like to see more things in this color. March 29, 2014
Beautiful Absolutely love it. I think it runs smaller than the usual Eileen Fisher. I find her clothes run large but this fits really well. March 24, 2014
Perfect linen weight This sweater is the perfect weight and just the right length on me (I'm 5' 1"). I like the pattern design and the color is beautiful. I just with it wasn't so expensive. February 16, 2014
A great piece, as are most Eileen Fisher. I bought this on sale, but it is still overpriced, in my opinion....otherwise I would have given it 5 stars all around. February 5, 2014

| What to Expect
| Call Your Doctor
Intervertebral discs are located between each backbone (vertebra).
When damaged, these discs can put pressure on nerves as they leave the spinal cord. An
intervertebral discectomy
is a back surgery that removes all or part of these discs. The procedure is most often done on lumbar discs (located in the lower back). It may also be done on cervical discs in the neck. There are two methods for this surgery:
These discs normally serve as cushions between the bones. The discs can become damaged or dry with age. Injury can also cause a disc to bulge (or
). These changes can create pressure on nerves leaving the spine. This can cause pain, numbness, and weakness.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The best time to have this surgery is debatable. This is because—for some patients—having early surgery may not result in less pain or disability. In most cases, surgery is only done after other treatments have failed. Other treatments typically include:
The goal of surgery is to eliminate pain, weakness, and numbness caused by the disc pressing on a nerve. You may feel relief right away, or it may take months for the nerve root to heal. In some cases, your symptoms may not improve. Your doctor will carefully evaluate you before surgery to determine what the best option is.
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have intervertebral discectomy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
Your doctor will likely do the following:
Leading up to your procedure:
General anesthesia
will be used. It will block any pain and keep you asleep during surgery.
There are different types of surgical procedures, including:
A cut will be made in the skin on the left or right side of the neck. The doctor will go through a muscle to reach the spine. The disc material will be removed after the doctor uses an x-ray to confirm that it is the correct disc. A portion of the bone may be removed to give the nerve more space. A
bone graft
may be placed to fuse the vertebrae.
A cut will be made in the skin at the back of the neck. The muscles will be pushed aside. A small piece of bone will be removed to get to the disc space (
). Next, the doctor will gently push the nerve aside and remove the disc material.
The doctor will make a 1-1½ inch cut in the skin on the lower back. The muscles will be moved out of the way. A small part of the bone may need to be removed to gain access to the nerve and disc. The disc or disc fragments will then be removed.
This depends on:
For example, the minimally invasive surgery may take longer, but the recovery is faster.
You will have pain while recovering. Your doctor will give you pain medicine.
This surgery is most commonly done in a hospital setting. It may be possible to go home on the same day of the surgery. If you have a cervical discectomy, you may have to stay in the hospital for a few days.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
Bending, lifting, or twisting may be limited for six weeks.
You will work with a physical therapist to stretch and strengthen your muscles. This will help to decrease the risk of future back problems.
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

There are 10 domes in all and they come in four different sizes. Depending on the size of each family and budget, visitors to The Dome Garden can request a 12, 16, 20, or 24 ft dome. The skeleton is made from either coppiced ash or galvanized steel – depending on the size – and then wrapped in watertight PVC. All of the domes are equipped with wood burners, water for the shower is heated by super-efficient boilers, and excess heat that rises to the top of the dome is fed into a recycled glass box at the base, which keeps the rooms nice and cozy overnight.
Solar panels are currently being installed to provide electricity, but rocket stoves are already used for cooking, and ambience tends to dictate the little electricity is used anyway. The stoves use very little wood, the peaceful garden is irrigated using rainwater harvested from the main building's roof, and drainage for the decks is comprised of buried recycled glass. Although staying in the domes is not as cheap as regular camping, all fees and amenities are included, and there are all kinds of ways to stay entertained without spending another pence! Asked to describe what it's like to stay there, The Dome Garden folks said "like the Eden Project but smaller. Okay, much smaller." But still – you get the picture.

RAND Walks Back HIT Savings Estimates
RAND researchers are walking back a report that the nonprofit public policy think tank issued in 2005 estimating that the widespread adoption of healthcare information technology could trim more than $81 billion each year from the nation's healthcare tab through improved efficiencies.
Instead, a new RAND analysis by a new team of researchers, published this month in Health Affairs, notes that seven years later, expectations about the safety and efficiency of HIT mostly have not been met, and annual healthcare spending has increased by $800 billion.
"The failure of health information technology to quickly deliver on its promise is not caused by its lack of potential, but rather because of the shortcomings in the design of the IT systems that are currently in place," said Dr. Art Kellermann, the study's senior author said in a media release.
"We believe the productivity gains of health information technology are being delayed by the slow pace of adoption and the failure of many providers to make the process changes needed to realize the potential," Kellermann said.
The new RAND study blamed the underperformance on several factors, including: sluggish adoption of HIT systems, along with balky systems that are hard to use and aren't interoperable; and a failure by providers and hospitals to adjust care processes to better benefit from HIT.
However, just as the 2005 RAND study over-estimated the potential savings with implementation of HIT, several observers tell HealthLeaders Media that the latest RAND report may be prematurely drawing too dire a picture of HIT adoption.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Frank Poggio (1/14/2013 at 3:31 PM)
As one who has worked as a health provider CFO and CIO, systems developer/vendor, and health care consultant for over forty years I am not surprised Rand came to its current conclusion. I was really surprised when they said in 2005 we could save $80bill a year. In all my years of health care experience I have never seen a capital investment in healthcare/medicine actually save dollars when you take a total health system view. Think about it. Back in the 60's most lab procedures were done manually. So for better quality and efficiency we invented lab auto analyzers, they could do 2 to 4 chemistry tests all at once. In the 70's it went up to 20 tests, in the 90's it went up to 50 and it could be 'discreet' meaning you could pick and choose which test to run. Was all this more efficient? You bet it was. Was it better quality health care? Of course it was, and better quality (and quantity) generated far more information and as such identified many previously hidden patient medical problems. And finding more medical problems meant more health care was needed. The same can be said for Radiology, first simple Xrays, then CAT scans, PET scans,then NMR, and so on. More efficient, yes, better health care, yes, and more medical problems identified. In short, better diagnoses tools means you will always find more patient problems, which in turn demands more therapies, and more protocols, more specialists, and even more sophisticated tools. Then add to that an aging patient population, more chronic illnesses, and societal issues such as obesity. What we seem to forget (or ignore) is that health and medical care is not a zero sum game. We have absolutely no idea how many medical problems are out there. The human body is far too complex. Youare not born with with a maintenance manual or a trouble shooting guide. For over a thousand years, using trial and error, we have been trying to 'reverse engineer' the human body, trying to identify all these possible problems. Yet it seems for every one we do identify we find three more. All these wonderful medical devices have taken us deep into human biology and we still could fill an ocean with what we do not know. Looking at overall health expenditures and expecting EMRs to reduce them is like believing that the new screw driver set you just bought is all you'll need to fix your car. EMRs are no more than tool and a relatively simple one at that. Frank Poggio The Kelzon Group KelzonGroup.com

Third Party Assurance Services
Regulations change. Technology vaults forward. As reliance on outsourcing grows, so does the need for transparency. All the more so in a world where information jumps from one set of eyes to millions in seconds. But that transparency must be coupled with credibility.
Meeting Expanding Needs
Today's reporting needs go well beyond financial attestation. It's imperative to have confidence in your organization's policies, controls, processes and security. It's equally critical to both have and inspire the same confidence in suppliers, vendors and partners. And that trust can translate into a significant competitive advantage, improving efficiencies and reducing costs.
Firming Up Market Credibility
PwC's Third Party Assurance (TPA) practice can provide the rock-solid verification your company, customers, suppliers, investors and regulators require. This interdisciplinary team brings a precise focus to financial and nonfinancial assurance needs, blending industry-specific skills in technology, regulatory compliance and business processes with financial and accounting expertise.
Using non-financial-statement reports, including SAS70/SSAE 16, agreed upon procedures and customized attestations, our TPA team delivers strong support in these key areas:
Business network and supply chain risk management
– reducing and managing the risk of supply chain disruption.
Cloud computing
– providing attestation focusing on the outsourcing of all or part of your company's IT to third parties.
Contract compliance
– mitigating risk and realizing incremental revenue by analyzing compliance with licenses and other agreements.
Cost / expense verification
– uncovering and ending financial leaks across the revenue cycle.
Digital transformation
– fully adapting your company's business model to meet consumers' digital expectations.
– helping evaluate, execute and manage outsourcing opportunities and commitments.
Privacy and security
– establishing sound, stable companywide practices.
Regulatory compliance and reporting
– achieving more effective compliance and greater transparency at optimal cost.
Sustainability, climate change, and carbon emissions
– mitigating risk through sustainability strategies that dovetail with strategic objectives.
– bolstering risk management with sophisticated systems, better information and straight-through reporting.
We're ready to help you convert risks into opportunities.

Church Unity
Post: #1
Church Unity
With the recent talks between the Roman Catholic Church and the Russian Orthodox Archbishop concerning reunification and the welcoming of "concerned"Anglicans into communion with the Catholic Church what are your views /opinions/observations.
Is there possibility of other Orthodox Churches joining together with the Catholic church-Not subservient but as equals .All in full communion with each other?
Could this be at last the start of Christian Churches Being
"one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all,"
Or is this me being too optimistic and simple.
In God's love
John Francis
Post: #2
For a reaction to Pope Benedict's initiative, have a look at my recent posting in the General Conversation folder.
Post: #3
I find myself in something of a dilemma here. As a Christian I am hurt and diminished by the divisions that exist within Christianity. Clearly the objective has to be the joining together of all God's people in His love.
And yet, the very existence of differences suggests there are factors that keep us apart. My own experience is one of examining such matters in my own life. As a 'cradle Catholic' I have spent 66 years trying to be true to my upbringing. But recent years have seen me struggling with various aspects of the Roman church that have given me major difficulties. Now I have been studying Orthodoxy (specifically the BOC) and finding that it meets my needs on the issues I have been upset by. Thus I am close to making a committment to the BOC and thereby severing my lifelong links to Rome.
Examining these matters over recent months has brought me to discern a distinction between unification of churches and unity in Christ. This has removed the sense of guilt and betrayal I have struggled with recently, easing my path into Orthodoxy. Furthermore, I have to consider the possibility that my searching has been a direct result of God's influence. I have placed myself in His service and allowed myself to be directed by Him as much as I can perceive His voice in my heart.
This means, nevertheless, that I have identified differences of view - things which keep us apart - and this means I am contributing to precisely the opposite of the aim of unity as commonly defined.
I have begun to rationalise this by considering myself a Christian first and foremost. (I actually came to this view many years ago.) I see this as more significant than which particular brand of Christianity is my spiritual home. I have no difficulty embracing Christians of other denominations - I see them all as my brothers and sisters in Our Lord. Thus while I can accept Orthodoxy as the true faith, that is the right place for me to be, I accept that others are 'different' Christians in good faith. This allows me to overcome my feelings of dilemma.
But where would all this take me if the BOC was to somehow move to Rome en bloc, thereby negating all my heartsearching?
I feel that redefining 'unity' can help to overcome the problem, without making me change either my difficulties with Rome or watering down what I see as the strengths of Orthodoxy.
I've probably said enough! Clearly I need some help with this (I am getting it from my priest, but any input will always be useful).
Please pray for me as I approach the point of making my committment.
With love and prayers,
Post: #4
church unity
Yes, it can be a dilemma, apparently uniting when there are so many serious differences. However, I doubt that, at the moment, there can be a merger of Roman Catholicism and Orthodoxy. I am a member of the Syriac Orthodox Church and for the past 25 years we have enjoyed a very close relationship with Rome, enabling us to commune each other and offer each other pastoral care. Yet this has not meant that differences have been put aside. We Orthodox still believe in the equality of Bishops, not the primacy of the Pope; we have not incorporated the filioque in the Creed etc etc. What is happening is that two Churches are trying to act as closely together as possible, believing that common prayer and worship will lead to us becoming worthy of the Holy Spirit's giudance in how to overcome our differences.
Yes, Christ is One, the Church is One, and we sinful human beings can only pray and act according to Christ's commandments in pursuit in a public union that is truly of His Divine Will.

Thank you Kirk for your thoughts.
I have been most fortunate to have Father Simon as my priest, and he has confirmed the position as far as the BOC is concerned. The views of Abba Seraphim have been most comforting as well. I am no longer troubled by this issue. Indeed, I have had the joyful experience of admission to the Catechumenate last week, and so I am now moving forward in Orthodoxy.
With love and prayers,
In peace,

Dear Tony,
Welcome to Orthodoxy. My prayers are with you.

RE: Church Unity
Dear Brothers in Christ,
My name is Peter Cvek and I also am on the verge of finding my spiritual home in Orthodoxy. For many years I have struggled with the same questions and dilemnas as Tony has, excepting from a Protestant as well as Roman Catholic perspective, since being raised as a Communist I had not the benefit of a religious upbringing, and upon my conversion began to search through both... I would find it difficult to join, however, an Orthodox Church that would seek equality, let alone subservience, with the pretenses of Rome and its Papacy.. I can accept the Liturgy of Saint James and Saint Mark as of Apostolic origin and blessed indeed, but how can we partake of a liturgy in the Roman Church which is largely the work of Thomas Aquinas, and his wayward doctrines on Transsubstantiation, which certainly are and were not the original Orthodox teaching on the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper? How can we accept as equal, if Orthodox, a denomination that regards its Inquisition arm ( to this day) as a Holy Office? How can we accept as equal the blasphemous claims of the Papacy to Montanistic Infallibility, and to Indulgences? The last of the Orthodox Bishops of Rome, Bishop Hippolytus @ 200 AD, was ousted by the heretical Bishop Callistus to his rightful claim on the throne of Rome... The Popes since Callistus have in the main continued his legacy.. Are we asked to cast all genuine reason and historical discernment out the door if we join Orthodoxy simply for the sake of a worldly tolerance of matters that Christ never intended to be tolerated, or some vague " peace", which Christ did not come to give for, as He says, His peace is one that " passes all understanding" and " not of this world"? Dear brothers,the martyrs of old died for a point of doctrine that they knew would breed future heresy and apostasy.. The blood of martyrs stains Roman hands to this day.. What indeed do we do?... Must we compass land and sea, like Rome, in search of one proselyte and then make them twice the child of Hades as herself? Are sincere seekers, such as Tony and myself, being merely asked to move our capital from Rome to Byzantium, yet keep the same emperor's clothes and political agenda? I truly do not desire to be contentious.. I seek the same answers as Tony does, and as millions of other potential Orthodox converts do... I love the truth enough not to merely use it as a mask for tolerance of things that ought never to be tolerated.. It is still worth dying for... What must be done, brothers, if we be true not to man's inventions, but to the Lord.... Peter Cvek, Australia...

RE: Church Unity
Peter, as mentioned previously in is post, these issues would all need to be addressed pre-reunion.
Tha matters of Roman Practice would certainly be addressed with regards to their doctrines but other matters would probably be left to Roman discression to be seen as a local practice. With regards to Liturgicl practice, key elements and prayers in the Roman liturgy come from the St James and much of it I recognise from our own practice. Even within Orthodoxy many elements in Liturgy have been adapted so we can admit Apostolic and Patristic origins in our Liturgies but not to use a completely Ancient Liturgy.
Either way, union between Rome and the East is looking unlikely for the time being so yu can hold your breath.

There's been some bad news in some of our schools lately, but now we have some good news, or more specifically, for one student, you could even say it's "perfect." Our Vince Gallagher explains.
CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. -- Meet Eric Wu, a senior at the Shenedehowa High School. A student who has a keen interest in computer programming.
Wu said, "Back in seventh grade, I started programming computers like assembly and ever since then programming became my hobby."
A hobby Wu became very good at. So much so that he has just earned a perfect score on his AP Computer Science A Exam.
"Twelve years here at Shenendehowa and this is the first time we've had a perfect score on the test," technology teacher Chris Hanley said.
But it gets even better. Wu not only received the top score, but in doing so, he has become one of only 18 students in the world to earn every point possible in the Computer Science A Exam and he did it all under pressure
Hanley said, "Both sections of the test are timed and so he had to do that in an hour and 15 minutes for 40 multiple choice and an hour and 45 for his written parts."
Most of this deals with basics of java programming, something, not surprisingly, he's looking at for further education
"Either a computer scientist or electrical engineer and that's what I want to do in college," said Wu.
Right now, he's considering his options. MIT is a possibility, but as his teacher mentions, he shouldn't have any problem moving from classroom to campus
"He did an outstanding job, very assertive, very bright, very motivated, took attention to detail, prepared himself well," Hanley said.
Wu says he also got a hundred on his finals, his overall GPA is right around 98 and if that isn't enough, he plays violin for the Empire State Youth Orchestra. But even for him, this certain accomplishment wasn't always easy.
"It was still pretty challenging and we did a lot of practice questions in class," Wu said.
An example where practice really does make perfect.

Sailing Calendar Photographers
The J/Sailing Calendar could not exist without the extraordinary talents and artistry exhibited by this years' contributors of sailing photography. From all over the world, this group of sailing photographers, many of whom are world renowned, award-winning photo-journalists, have experienced everything you could ever imagine to get "the perfect shot".
Many of these now grace the pages of this year's J/Sailing Calendar. Shooting great sailboat photos takes extraordinary skill, timing and a bit of luck-- call it serendipity or perseverance, all of them can tell you that getting tossed around in small rubber inflatable boats (RIBS) or dangling out of helicopters on windy days can often be dangerous. But, when they get that perfect photograph, they know it.
It is through their work that we can enjoy the beauty of sailing as seen by their perspective on what makes a great sailing photo- the composition and interplay of light, contrast, waves, wind, clouds, sky, the landscape and seascape and how the sailboats themselves perform on the sea. We consider ourselves fortunate to have such broad range of J's sailing off some of the world's most beautiful harbors and sea coasts, some of them have been beautifully captured by these remarkable photographers. Please "meet" this year's J/Sailing Calendar photographers below and enjoy their work.
ChapiGonzalo Gomez Gomara, a.k.a. "Chapi", from Santander, Spain, started photography in 2006 after a severe knee injury prevented him playing professional sports. His sailing work started after a spectacular sunset sail on a little sailboat in Santander Bay. He recently published a book, "Santander- Luz del Norte" and is widely published in major sailing publications worldwide. See his work:
Ingrid AberyIngrid cut her sailing photographic teeth chasing the 18ft skiff fleet down Sydney harbor in a helicopter in a feisty 26 knot Nor'Easter. The sea is her office and the race course a blank canvas each morning. Ingrid, though based in Chelsea, London, spends much of her time photographing yacht races in Europe, Australia, the US and Caribbean. Her portfolio encompasses event organizers, sponsors such as Rolex, brochure clients and individuals. www.ingridabery.com
Tim Wright
Tim was living on his 34 ft sailing boat in the Caribbean and started to photograph yachts as a means of survival. Today he spends winters afloat in the Caribbean. Over recent years he's been active at regattas in the UK and the Med. Sailors recognize his unique style; where other photographers shoot from larger boats Tim works from a tiny inflatable-- this gives him incredible maneuverability, allowing him to get close to the action.
Daniel Forster
Since 1974, Daniel has covered ten America's Cups and ten Olympic Games. Daniel's photos have been on covers of magazines worldwide, including TIME more than once. Maxi-sailors Bill Koch & Larry Ellison have commissioned him for books documenting their passion for sailing. Daniel is a Rolex Yachting events photographer and has been engaged by corporations to document their participation in various world events, including the Volvo Ocean Race.
Paul ToddPaul Todd is a former professional sailor/sail maker and a founding member of Outside Images agency back in 1992. He spends his time traveling around the world shooting regattas and sailing offshore for commercial clients. Paul was the official photographer for the 2013 Louis Vuitton Trophy and the official photographer for the 2011-2012 Volvo Ocean Race . Paul's most recent assignment was for Louis Vuitton, covering the entire 2013 America's Cup in San Francisco.
Rick Tomlinson
Rick specializes in yacht racing and advertising photography. He made his name capturing the Southern Ocean at its most treacherous from the decks of various yachts in the Whitbread Round the World Race, starting in 1985 with photos from DRUM published in Yachting World and Seahorse. He finished his 4 Race Whitbread career with a commission from National Geographic. Rick works from Cowes and is currently Official Photographer for Team SCA- the all female team in the next Volvo Ocean Race..
Meredith Block
Meredith first started sailing dinghies when she was a young girl. A graduate from University of Michigan, Meredith abandoned a career in restaurant and office management after rediscovering her love of sailing and her love for photography. Meredith has been published in dozens of publications around the world, and currently works as Staff Photo-grapher for the sport's most widely read news & information website, Sailing Anarchy.com.
Jesus RenedoJesús has been sailing since he was a kid, first with his parents 25 ft sailboat in the North of Spain and later as crew in many different boats. Always with a camera on-hand, he is also a scuba diving instructor and underwater photographer. In 2006 he decided to focus only in photography and since them he has been taking photos in many big regattas, with some of the best teams and boats of the regatta circuit. He lives in Palma Mallorca, Spain. www.jesusrenedo.com

text: 5 THE PSYCHO, THE NYMPHO AND THE TOOL!SECTION8 | 24/11/2011 | See all SECTION8's reviews (1336)Top 10 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer If like me you feel as though you have been stuck in a rutt at work, overlooked un-appreciated and the only obsticle in your way is your boss than this is the film for you........ not that I suggest that you go to the lengths that the characters in the film go to.Horrible Bosses is one of the best comedies this year. This is black comedy at it's best as the story follows Nick (Jason Bateman), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) and Dale (Charlie Day) as they plan on getting revenge on their bosses for their constant threats, abuse and sexual advances. As you can expect things don't go to plan in some brilliantly funny situations. The master stroke to the film is the cast of the actual Horrible Bosses. The Psycho: Kevin Spacey is at his smarmy best as he plays mind games with Bateman. The Tool:Colin Farrell is very funny as the totally inoppriate Boss as the coke head manager of Charlie Day's chemical disposal company, but if there is a fault Farrell is under used as I could have easily have watch much more of his very un-PC managment tactics, The Nympho: Jennifer Aniston's dentist is outstanding as this is the best film she has ever been in as she makes sexual advances to Jason Sudeikis and manipulates him to getting her way with him.The situations in the film are very funny especially as they go wrong as the team of would-be assassins fumble at every turn as things spiral out of control.In a summer of disappointing event movies it seems that the smaller comdies are the ones that satisfied this year.This is a great comedy with brilliant one liners that is the perfect escapism from the disappointment of most of our daily employment.See if you like...Very Bad Things.Fargo.Brides Maides.The HangoverThe Hangover Part 2.Old School.Due Date.

Review: Win4Lin Pro
The number of useful desktop applications for Linux is growing every day, but there are many would-be users who still have one or more "must have" Windows applications. For those users, running Windows under Linux is a suitable alternative to having to maintain two systems, or a dual-boot system with Linux and Windows. One of the options for running Windows under Linux is Win4Lin, Inc.'s Win4Lin Pro, which was released earlier this year. Win4Lin Pro gets the job done, but its performance and usability are a bit disappointing.
I took Win4Lin Pro 2.0 for a test drive, to see whether it was a suitable choice for users who want to run Windows applications under Linux. Note that Win4Lin Pro is only for Windows 2000 and Windows XP; if you want to run Windows 98 or older versions of Windows, you can use the company's Win4Lin 9x, which has been available for several years. If you want to run other x86 operating systems, VMware, Xen, or Qemu might be what you're looking for.

Leaked videos, screenshots reveal an HTC One running Android Lollipop
No, you won't get this gift in time for Christmas, but perhaps seeing an HTC One running Lollipop may make the wait slightly less painful. A batch of videos and screenshots show HTC's flagship with the newest build of Android, though of course it's merged with the Sense 6.0 user interface (the HTC One currently runs Sense 5.0). We got a small hint of how Lollipop looks on the One in November, but this leak lays out what the entire operating system makeover looks in clearer detail.
The winning Linux kernel live patch: All of the above
Life's choices often amount to one of two options: Linux or Windows? Android or iOS? Kgraft or Kpatch? That last pair consists of the two major contenders for the technology Linux could use for live kernel patches. Now a winner is in, and it amounts to all of the above. According to a post on the official Linux kernel developer's mailing list, a kernel patching system that works with both Kgraft and Kpatch and uses "core functionality abstracted out of [those] already existing implementations" has been proposed as an addition to the Linux 3.20 kernel.
UNIX Industry Banks on Linux Strategies

The move is aimed at maintaining remaining customers, since users are increasingly abandoning UNIX servers. However, it is receiving a lukewarm response from the market.

HomeComputer HardwareComponentsMemory
Upgrading Memory For Improved Performance
As programs grow increasingly complex, youll discover your PC may not be working as quickly and efficiently as it used to. While you might be tempted to purchase a new, more powerful computer, you can dramatically enhance your computers performance simply by upgrading your memory. For far less than what youd pay for a new computer, a memory upgrade will often have your PC working faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Beefing up your PCs memory is an inexpensive and surprisingly simple way to give yourself a huge boost in performance. Besides, todays complex software and graphics-intensive games chew up your memory almost as fast as you can add it on. Therefore, its best to add as much memory as you can. To give you an example of how things are changing in the memory game, Microsoft advises that you need at least 1GB of memory to run Windows 8, but 2GB is even better. Its always better to add more memory than you think youll need so that your PC is able to run multiple programs simultaneously without lagging.
Adding Memory Is Easy
Two great things about upgrading your PC memory are that its cheap especially when you consider how dramatically a significant memory upgrade improves your computers performance and it only takes about five minutes to drop in another memory card. And when youre done, youll be able to keep more programs running, ramp up your speed on memory-eating graphics programs and play games like never before. Plus, your PC will handle like a precision machine.
Whether youre looking for DDR, DDR2, DDR3, DDR4, SDRAM or ECC memory, youll find it all right here at TigerDirect.com. Our huge inventory includes products from the worlds leading memory manufacturers including Corsair, Crucial, EDGE, Kingston, OCZ, PNY and Transcend.
