5.0 out of 5 stars Great phone
I've had this phone for about one week, and I have been very pleased with it so far -- and I am very picky. Being a new phone with very few reviews, I was skeptical.

3.0 out of 5 stars Best AT&T Texting Phone, but Could Be Better,
Joseph "jck09" (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
Update 04/04/13: See K Montgomerey's comment to my review - although I've been hoping for a firmware update, DON'T INSTALL IT until LG confirms that they've cleared the bugs.
One of the maddening things about AT&T is that if you connect a smartphone to their system (and they catch you), you automatically get upgraded to a data plan. So if you don't want a data plan, you need to find a "dumbphone" that they will allow on their network without a plan.
The LG Xpression is about halfway between a smartphone and a dumbphone, and is made for people who want to send text messages but not to use a data plan. It runs a few apps and looks android-ish (but is not android), has a sliding keyboard, a touchscreen, and is pretty good. I got this for my daughter, who is a serious texter but doesn't need a data plan, and so far she seems pretty happy.
(Update: After several weeks, my daughter asked me to drop this to three stars because of some design flaws -- see below).
What I like:
- For the price (currently free with plan), it's pretty good. It plays music, takes pictures, sends SMS and MMS messages, and can run a few apps.
- Texting is pretty good. It has a slider keyboard, and arranges text exchanges into conversations by sender.
- Connecting to a computer is well designed. When you connect to a PC through the micro-USB charging port, you get options to mount the phone as an external storage device (requires memory card), to sync music, or to use the PC for an internet connection. I haven't finished testing that last option, but really appreciate it --assuming it works, it means that we can get to the AT&T app store without buying a data plan.
- For a free phone, the operating system isn't bad. You can customize the home screen with "widgets" like android, so you have little windows on the home screen from different apps.
- It does have a basic web browser and some social media apps for things like facebook, and is eligible for AT&T's discount data plan, so if you want to buy data, it's functional. (At that point, though, I might look at the basic android phones -- their data plan is a little more expensive, but they're a lot more functional).
What could be better:
- The keys are pretty flat, so they don't give you the same feeling as a blackberry.
- The texting length limit is odd -- the first text in a conversation can be any number of characters, but when replying to a text, the phone stops accepting additional characters after 160. (160 characters is the actual limit for SMS text messages -- phones that accept more than that actually break the messages into multiple texts that the phone on the other end then puts back together. There's no good reason to limit the length of replies, so maybe this will get fixed in upcoming firmware updates).
- The display and camera are both a little behind the modern standards, although they would have been great a few years back. A 2 megapixel camera won't blow anyone away, but is enough to take some pictures as needed.
- Compatible apps are limited. From a quick review of the AT&T app store, there are few if any free apps other than demos, and even paid apps are limited.
- It's missing some of the features from more expensive phones, like GPS, FM Radio, or WiFi. Still, for a texting device and phone, it's great.
Other notes:
- The look of the phone is probably more suited to teens and young adults, which is appropriate for a texting phone. It's fire engine red and feels plastic-y with a swooped pattern on the back cover.
In my opinion, it's a big step up from my daughter's last texting phone, and I recommend it.
Update 8/15/12: Over the past few weeks, my daughter has two new texting complaints.
First, the phone only allocates 300kb to store texts. In fact, even if you add a memory card, there's no way to expand the space allocated to storing texts. It took several weeks to reach that limit, but now my daughter has to delete texts every day to stay under the limit. Worse, there's no way to mark multiple (but not all) texts in a conversation for mass deletion, and no easy way to copy the texts over to our home computer for storage.
Second, the phone is erratic about when it recognizes the sender for a text conversation. Some conversations are identified by the sender name in the texting app, but some are identified by phone number some of the time, by name other times. (For example, if she exits and reenters the texting app, a conversation that was labeled by phone number the first time may be identified by the contact name the second time).
Maybe those issues will get addressed in firmware, but for now, we're downgrading this to a lukewarm recommendation for heavy texters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great phone,
Gearhead (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
I've had this phone for about one week, and I have been very pleased with it so far -- and I am very picky. Being a new phone with very few reviews, I was skeptical.
I was looking for something to replace an older Pantech Link, that I use primarily for talking hands-free while driving and for texting.
I didn't want another phone with a data plan(already have iphones around the house), so one can imagine the choices are limited. Further, although the Pantech Link wasn't bad for a simple phone, I wasn't thrilled with it and we haven't had the greatest luck with other Pantech models my family members have had in the past. Needless to say, with AT&T, my choices of non-data plan phones became even further limited.
I'm going to keep this write-up short, but in summary, everything works the way it is supposed to (keep in mind this is not a smartphone). The touch screen is not like an iphone, but it is certainly acceptable. It is accurate, sensitive enough and predictable. One nice plus, I'm a mountain biker and ride with gloves. You cannot operate the touch screen on many phones while wearing gloves, but this one works fine. The ringer and speakerphone volumes are plenty loud when you want them to be.
One thing I needed to get used to: The bluetooth volume when you make a new call always defaults to the setting you configure in the phone settings. This is ok if you have that setting where you want it. Some phones go to the volume you used during the last call, which is nice. Of course, you can always adjust the volume during the call, but it will revert back for the next call. This is a very minor thing, and can be annoying if you don't set it the way you want it in the settings.
The slide out keyboard is good however the buttons are not raised, and therefore are not as easy to feel. I haven't used the keyboard much so far-- I've found that I can text pretty fast using the touchscreen and T9 for shorter messages. This does take some getting use to, however.
All in all, I'm very pleased, the phone hasn't done anything it's not supposed to, and is a very well designed phone with many advanced features.
I recommend looking over the user manual (available online), to learn more about it's features.
It seems to me that LG and AT&T did a good job with this one.
It is a great alternative if you do not want a smartphone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who Said Sliders Can't Be Smart?,
Steve Taylor (Only visiting this planet) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
LG has made a nice new slider cell phone and it seems they have corrected some of the bugs from some of the past models. Although not as smart as the full blown smart phones it does bring some of us basic phone users to a new threshold.
I mentioned in the video that you will need a cover for this phone due to it's very slick finish. Amazon carries one Body Glove model in two colors but as of this review there are no others manufactured.
LG Xpression C395 Inlay Body Glove Gel Case Red
Body Glove 9258101 Hard Shell Gel Inlay Slider Case f/LG Xpression Black
Overall I highly recommend this phone if you do not want a phone that requires a data plan and you are not one who beats the crud out of your cell phones. The slider function seems well built but may not withstand the torture some put their phones through. I'm giving this phone five stars because for the type of phone it is I think it deserves it. However I am not comparing it the amazing smart phones that are on the market today. This LG Xpression is not in their class (or price range).
Solid construction
Touch screen works very well
Easy to use menus that make sense
Good sound and reception
Excellent battery life with the right setting
Easy to attach bluetooth function
Sharp colorful screen
One button screen lock
Speaker option
Can add 32mg card
Replaces MP3 player
Tools such as calendar, notes, alarm, photo editing...
Icon dialing
Phone locks too fast when on call
Flat rubber keys on QWERTY keyboard
Slick casing requires a cover
If data is turned off can not send pictures, video or audio through text
Fixed lense camera okay but not as good as it should be

5.0 out of 5 stars Great dumbphone!,
Z. Meiners "drmeiners" (Independence, MO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
The choices for phones that don't require data plans gets smaller and smaller by the day. thank you LG for making a great phone for those of us that just want to talk, text, and occasionally send or view a picture text.
This is the best phone i've ever had that didn't require data service.
great touchscreen, great options, great battery life.
tech-UNsavvy people may not like the touch screen or all the setup options.
but tech savvy people that don't need/want a smartphone will really enjoy this phone.

4.0 out of 5 stars My wife loves it. if i didnt need i smartphone i would get one for me.,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
I purchased the phone for my wife as she wanted phone with a slide out keypad. I got it as advertised in 2 days. Amazon even sent a free car charger with it. Out of the box she loved the phone. It does feel slick as some other posters mentioned but i dont think youll need a case to avoid dropping it. It is a 3G phone with decent camera for emergencies/moments you dont want to miss. I am a fan of having a camera phone if you ever get into a car accident. take lots of pictures. This will not replace a point and shoot camera by any means but it will suffice. it also records video. It has a headphone jack on the top and a spot to add microSD for music. i added a 1GB from an old phone i had and my wife has music on it already. the media player has a simple interface and lets you listen over the speaker if you dont have headphones in. the user interface is simple and smartphone like with 3 screens to slide between. homescreen is the widget screen add what you want(clock, calendar, media player, message reminder, and notes) is what my wife has on it now.This phone has no games installed on it but has a folder to add some. Batter life is great. and sound quality is very good. Better than my mother in laws Samsung Evergreen. she does not like that phone. so if your comparing the 2. this one is better.
my one gripe is they sent it with a bad battery. got it plugged it in came back 2 hours and unplugged it. it had 3 bars. fully charged. later than night the phone wouldnt turn on. i plugged it in and the screen lit up showing LG logo. never turned on. I took it to an ATT store and the lady said the battery was no good. she opened a box for a new phone and gave me that battery. no problems since. like i said the phone is amazing. i would have given it 5 stars except for the battery problem which was easily fixed by battery swap. i have already recommended amazon wireless to friends and family. as the price is amazing. to get the same phone from att online it would have been $50 after mail in rebate. i paid a penny and got hooked up with a car charger. with the 2 day wait. hope this review helps those looking into getting this phone. oh yeah it does have a gps built in but i dont use it because you have to pay extra to AT&T when you do.

1.0 out of 5 stars Better off with two tin cans and a piece of string...,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
I bought my first cell phone in 1986, so I'm not exactly new to the market. I didn't want a phone that required a data plan, and the Xpression looked like the least objectionable phone on the very limited list AT&T will let you use without a data plan. Opened the box, and found it had no manual, just a one sheet quick reference guide. It has all sorts of useful information on how to use AT&T Social net, and ignores the useless stuff like where they hid the button to hang up the phone when you finish a call. Most phones have a green button to dial and a red button to hang up, but not this one. Went to the LG website, and printed out the manual. It was 120 pages long, and that was just the English version. No telephone should be so convoluted that it requires a 120 page manual. After using the phone for a few days, I found the following fatal flaws:
When you try to listen to your voicemail, the keypad disappears off the touch screen. Since AT&T's voicemail system requires you to use the keypad off the touch screen to delete or save your messages, this is a bit of a problem. You have to slide out the keyboard, and find where they put the asterisk key so you can end the call.
If you put the phone in your pocket, the keyboard will slide in and out slightly as you walk. If you've locked the phone before you put it in your pocket, this will unlock it, allowing you to dial anyone in your contacts without even trying, or even knowing you're doing it. It also makes it difficult to pull the phone out of your pocket when the phone is ringing to see if you want to talk to that caller without inadvertently answering the phone.
The contact list is set up in such a way that if you have a home and mobile number listed for a particular person, the buttons are so close together that you end up having to use a stylus to select between them. The only way to make it work is to enter a seperate contact for each phone number, not for each person.
If you hit a wrong number when dialing and hit the back arrow to correct it, it enters a 3. You have to hit just above the back arrow to actually use it to delete.
If you have the keypad on the touch screen and slide out the keyboard, the screen says it's dialing. Doesn't say who it's dialing.
If you set the phone ringer on silent, sometimes it doesn't ring, sometimes it rings anyway. When you go back to check your settings to make sure you had it set just to vibrate, the settings show that you did.
I think this phone was designed as part of AT&T's marketing strategy to make people buy a smart phone and pay for a data plan to get a phone that actually functions.I think AT&T needs to accept that there is a substantial customer base that doesn't want to browse the web on a 3 inch screen. I've got a desktop, a laptop and a tablet, and I've got all the internet connectivity I need. All I really want my phone to do is make phone calls and be able to handle text messages.

3.0 out of 5 stars Discover what to eXpect from the LG Xpression.,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
What should you expect from the LG Xpression? Know before you go.
I regularly use the text, call, MP3 player, calender/planner, memos, audio record, and camera. Had it for two months.
I give it 2.5 out of five stars and recommend it if you want a
- "free phone" more than you want a high-functioning gadget.
- only use text and call
- don't mind pocket dialing
The gory details:
- CONVERSATION VIEW (as it ought to always be) texts are displayed with the entire history of your texting with that contact, which rules. it puts the message in the context of the larger back and forth of the conversation, so you can easily scroll-up with the flick of your thumb and see what was said in previous messages.
- GOOD RECEPTION (again, as it ought to be . . .) texts and calls through thick walls
- phone and text functions work
- No data plan
- PHYSICAL Camera BUTTON (as it always ought to be) works at reasonable speed and doesn't look too bad.
- Standard headphone-jack (as god intended) u can use your regular headphones to block-out the rest of the people on the bus so that you can go home and watch TV on the internet and read this review.
- touch screen "feels" great, it's responsive and fast whenever phone is not frozen (see below).
- EXPECT DELAYS in all non-basic function areas -music player esp.
- FREEZES inXplicably for 10-20 seconds maybe once a day, sometimes more.
- MUSIC PLAYER SLOWNESS & FLAWS: with 1800+ songs and it's VERY SLOW and gives you a "LOADING . . ." screen for literally 30-60 seconds (no Xaggeration) when you start the "app". Then another 15-25 seconds before you can use the (genuinely helpful) search feature. Plus, the phone limits you to 2000 songs (yes a 32GB card will work . . . as long as you only use about 1/8 of it for music.) aaaand it doesn't know %90 of the artists names or album titles making it basically only good for shuffle (which is mostly what I use it for, in case you're interested).
- ALARM(s) WON'T WAKE PHONE, none of the phone's 3 alarm apps (yes, three separate alarm apps) will wake the phone from being completely off (which every phone ought to do), so if you want the alarm to go off in the morning, you have to leave it on all night, risking battery-death and close-quarters cell-vibes to your dome-piece (brain).
- CONSTANT FACE DIAL - when I talk on the phone I often find that my face has swiftly: hung up on my call, re-written some random's contact information, put my call on hold (still no success in ever coming back from hold once there: I can't find the button? I guess I'm getting old.) and begun calling someone else. My face and this phone love to taunt me.
- CONSTANT POCKET DIAL - it's much too easy to unlock the phone by accident and it has no type-a-code-to-unlock feature (only a code to type in if you change sim cards which is very rare) a friend who has the same phone says they also pocket dial people all the time and at very unfortunate times.
- CLOCK is only on certain screens instead of always visible, if you want to know what time it is you may have to navigate to find a clock.
- no CALENDER CALLs, you can't be on a call and look at your calender, so someone asks you on a date, you have to be all "let me check my calender and then call you back . . ."
-Audio Recorder is okay but you must CONVERT the files (and download a file converter if you don't have one) to listen in itunes because the Xpression records in some crazy non-universal file format.
-CALENDER reminders just say: "a reminder is happening" but you have to unlock the screen, and click to find out what it is, instead of it just telling you in the initial dialog. and the mysterious reminders disappear fast so it's easy to miss them if you didn't feel the buzz the first time.
- FYI you cannot change your ringtone so I hope you like "At&T PlayOn" or vibrate. Yep, to date, I've never been able to change my ringtone because: every time i select the ringtones the phone says "loading . . ." for literally TWO AND A HALF MINUTES (for real, no joke, i just tested it for this review) and then the screen goes black and displays the LG symbol for 30 seconds or so in a process that takes over 3 MINUTES and yields zero results.
-the qwerty buttons aren't my favorite either, but therapy is helping me increase my coping skills.

2.0 out of 5 stars Beware 300kb text storage limit,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
It looks and works great until you realize that once you fill the tiny memory allocated to texting you will have to delete texts every day to get new ones. All obvious solutions fail:
1) can't make the phone push texts to the microSD card
2) can't find software to back up texts
3) only two options for deleting texts
a) one at a time (in a really painful way such that menu to delete then you get the chance to delete one text before getting kicked back to regular menu so you have to go through menu again for each text delete)
b) delete a whole conversation
For kids that want to keep some text history this means a big time sink each day while they go through the tedious process or pruning to stay under the TINY 300kb limit (that is about 500 messages WITH NO PICTURES).
Seriously LG. Improve the software if you want this to be a phone for today's texters. It can't be that hard.

1.0 out of 5 stars I don't like this phone.,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
Sadly, I really dislike this phone. I do usually like LG phones, but not this one. I got it a few months ago, liked it at first because of the keyboard feature, but now I'm online shopping for a new phone. The keyboard buttons are tiny and hard to push. I'm a girl so I don't have big fingers. The touch screen sucks. Sometimes it takes me at least 5 tries to open a multimedia message because I can't get it to hit the tiny spot! And every time you miss it, it closes the message. Also the picture quality is poor. And you have to have it at just the right angle to even see your picture clearly. You can't send video messages either, even when under 10 seconds. When making a phone call, the screen automatically locks. This is annoying if you want to put it on speaker right away or something. The clock thing is inconvenient. It is a little box on the home screen, and you can't see it unless you're on the home screen. Anyway, I'm disappointed. If anyone knows of a good relatively inexpensive similar type phone, please let me know!

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE this phone!!,
This review is from: LG Xpression, Red (AT&T) (Wireless Phone)
Despite the strange color, this phone is amazing!! It's a touch screen, which I love, and it slides out. WAY better than my old phone, the Eternity II. It is super easy to text on, but I don't know much about the web (I don't have a data plan). The minor down side is that the screen locks while you are calling after a few seconds, but that's the only bad thing.
There are 3 different screens (you can go to them on the touch screen), and they you can customize all of them.
If you have any further questions, please comment below.
I suggest this phone, especially to teens who love to text.
I also bought this case (Black and White Flower Design Snap on Hard Plastic Cover Faceplate Case for Sprint LG Rumor Reflex LN272 / AT&T LG Xpression C395 + Screen Protector Film + Mini Adjustable Phone Stand and it looks super sharp with the red.
Hope this helped!

Introduction to working with trauma clients
2 days: January 18th & 19th 2014
Central London, W1
This is an introductory training in working with trauma clients. Psychotraumatology is an emerging discipline in the UK. But it is becoming increasingly clear that trauma presentations are actually quite common in general therapeutic practice. All too often, these include:
- Bereavement and loss;
- Pregnancy, miscarriage and childbirth;
- Acute illness or diagnosis of chronic illness;
- Relationships ending, divorce and separation;
- Sexual abuse, assault or rape;
- Accidents at work or on the road;
- Bullying or harrassment.
Lucia Hall wrote this training based on her experiences of supervising trauma. What she discovered was that although trained, therapists struggled with how to implement trauma therapy in a systematic way – especially with regards to complex trauma.
Each full-day workshop will meet the learning objectives through lecture, Powerpoint presentations, question and answer sessions, group discussions & skills practice exercises among the group of participants.
Attendance on this course is recognised by ESTSS (European Society of Trauma Stress Studies) and UKPTS (UK Psychological Trauma Society).
Introduction to PTSD: a systematic treatment approach
On successful completion of this workshop, the participant will be able to:
- Define trauma
- Explain definitions of PTSD based on the DSM-IV and ICD 10 classifications
- Discuss how PTSD develops
- Evaluate the importance of assessment in the treatment of PTSD
- Recognise the differences between Type I and Type II trauma
- Identify the type of treatment problems that can arise during treatment
- Explain the prerequisites before commencing a trauma process (psycho-education, safety, containment, grounding & stabilisation)
- Identify evidence-based models of Trauma I and Trauma II
- Explain how to end a trauma process
Introduction to Imagery Rescripting and Reprocessing Therapy (IRRT) for Trauma
On successful completion of this workshop, the participant will be able to:
- Define trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD
- Identify a range of normal reactions following a traumatic event (based on the DSM-IV and ICD 10).
- Discuss the importance of a comprehensive assessment in trauma therapy
- Discuss the need for safety and stabilisation techniques in trauma therapy
- Describe the theoretical basis underlying the IRRT approach to trauma
- Discuss the current evidence-base for IRRT
- Outline some of the key components of the IRRT treatment for trauma and PTSD
- Identify the type of treatment problems that can arise during therapy
Course dates
The course will run on two days: January 18th & 19th 2014, from 10am to 5pm each day.
The course will be run at our central London training venue, W1.

NatGeo Partners with IDG Subsidiary for Taiwan Edition
Second international launch for the magazine since April.
National Geographic is expanding its relationship with IDG's Taiwanese subsidiary, Boulder Publishing, launching a local-language edition of its magazine.
Boulder, acquired by IDG earlier this year, has worked with National Geographic since 2010, publishing 70 books in Taiwan since then.
The new edition—available in print and for iOS devices—is expected to launch in September with Yungshih Lee, founder of Boulder, serving as editor-in-chief. Content and layout will "closely follow" the English-language edition, but will feature "some local content," according to a release by National Geographic. Initial print circulation will be around 80,000.
"Boulder Publishing has been a strong partner for National Geographic in Taiwan with our book properties, and through this expanded relationship with IDG and Boulder Publishing, we are pleased to be able to bring our flagship magazine to Taiwan," says Terry Adamson, executive vice president of the National Geographic Society, in a statement. "We are especially excited to work with them to produce an electronic edition of the magazine, which will be available for our readers in Taiwan and Hong Kong for the first time."
While National Geographic already produces a Chinese-language edition, it is not exclusive to the Taiwanese market. The launch is the magazine's 39th local-language edition.
The move follows a recent emphasis on international publishing by National Geographic. A Ukranian edition debuted in April, shortly after Yulia Boyle was promoted to Senior Vice President of International Publishing at the organization.
"Led by the extension of National Geographic magazine into 37 local-language editions, the [National Geographic] Society's international footprint has been a remarkable feature of growth and profit over the past dozen years," Adamson and Declan Moore, president of publishing and travel, said in a statement at the time of Boyle's promotion. "We see [a] wonderful opportunity for the Society's continued growth in publishing and its digital offshoots in many markets around the world."

A witness reports that he observed a rectangular object over Wyoming Michigan on October 24. It appeared to be moving at about the speed of a small plane, and the witness estimated its altitude at 800 to 1000 feet. It was not lit like an plane, but rather appeared to be a an illuminated square.
The witness provided an illustration which is visible on the source link.

Choosing a case is so much harder these days, before the only decision that had to be made was the choice of a Midi Tower or a Full Tower. Now the decisions are almost endless, midi or full, steel or aluminum, black, silver or colored. Then you can choose if you want to purchase a power supply separately or will you be happy with the one that comes with the case, until recently the quality of the power supplies that came with cases were very low, fortunately cases have come a long way since then and quality companies like Antec are including their power supply with their line of cases. The wattage you need will depend on how many devices you intend to run, while the average will be around 300 watt, some people may choose to go to 400 watt or the insanely high 500+ watt.
Case modding has become such a big thing, so much so that case producers are aiming for the market of people who want a bit more then that ugly beige looking case we had to put up with for years. Antec have been producing a good quality line of cases recently and the latest two additions to their range are the new Antec Sonata and Lanboy provided to us by PC Case Gear. These cases have a lot to compete with considering its predecessors the 1000AMG and 1080AMG did so well, it will be hard to knock them off top spot for value for money.

sulphur smell

Has this happened more than once? One thing you can try is to empty out the desk completely and see if anything chances. The only thing I am aware of that would create this kind of smell is a car's catalytic converter. But, I don't think you'd smell it that strongly inside your house. I've never known a furnace to give off that smell either, accept for a natural gas smell if there is a problem (not burning gas, line leak), etc.
Rule Number 1 of the paranormal, check for the mundane first.
I'd also check for anything under the desk, like in the basement, and also anything outside along the wall where the desk is.
Also, check if there is a vent by the desk there and then check out the ventilation system.
That's pretty much all I can think of at the moment.

Here's an interesting couple of questions, do you or your husband drive Toyotas? Do you have reformulated gas where you live? I drive a new Toyota and up here in SE WI, we have the dumb reformulated gas that costs $2.18 a gallon. I took the car in to have it checked out becuase the thing just WREAKED of sulfur. It's incredibly bad in cold weather to the point that it will stink like that nonstop from home to work, then it will permeate the entire interior all day long to where when I come out, it's still smells inside. Gah... anyway, that's my Toyota rant (they just gave me this nice letter telling me it's the gas not the car's fault).
Check the garage or check the cars to see if this happens. It is possible you are getting a "memory smell" that the woman had from her death. Her car may have stunk up like that when she finally passed out from the Carbon Monoxide.

Thank you kats_god for your reply too... the only camera I have that uses film is one of those disposables (with the flash). Other than that, we only have the digital. Would the disposable one be ok? I've had many experiences with ghosts, entities, spirits, etc... but, I have never tried to take a picture or anything like that. I guess these things have been such a normal thing in my life since I was a kid that I never thought about proving them. I haven't shared my experiences with very many people. It's just that this particular odor is something new and different for me. My gut feeling is that it isn't mundane. I don't even need to prove it... I'd just like the odor to go away!

Anna and Alex recently traveled to the University of Michigan to kick off and judge the Michigan Hackers IMPACT Hack-a-thon. Taking first place was Chargii, an iOS and Android app with hardware that can effectively manage a user's electricity consumption. The 5 person team, made up of sophomores: Brad Hekman, Josh Franz, and Nathan Shields, freshman Aubrey O'Neal and senior Tobias Franz, developed the app, hardware and marketing video in only 20 hours.
The video is awesome – check it out:
The Chargii team credits their success to their diversified team and the amount of time they invested in hashing out all the pros and cons for the different ideas they had. They actually had three concepts to chose from and the team explored them all, at length. At one point, the team nervously looked around and saw the other teams already coding and building but they were still debating. Their thoroughness paid off though as they were able to discount the other two ideas and the concept of Chargii emerged with a clear end product in mind.
Part software, part hardware, the team mobilized based on their strengths to execute the vision. Brad, Nathan and Josh coded. Josh also scavenged for hardware (at 1AM) while Aubrey and Toby developed the marketing and video presentation.
By Saturday, the team was bleary eyed and excited, but when they went to make their final presentation the demo wouldn't cooperate. A good lesson in always be prepared, the team used their video to carry the presentation while they scrambled to make the demo work. They pulled it off in the remaining 3 minutes and walked away with both first place and the prize for most technical hack.
Next up for the Chargii team? Likely more hack-a-thons since the taste of success was pretty sweet right out of the gate. They entered in the 1,000 Pitches contest and are looking to see how far they can take their idea. (Here's a link to their latest demo). Looking ahead to summer plans already, the team is using Readyforce to connect with companies for internships. Smart group.
Connect with the team on Readyforce: Brad Hekman, Josh Franz, Nathan Shields, Aubrey O'Neal and Tobias Franz.

As the United States celebrated its fallen soldiers during Monday's Memorial Day celebrations, Brazil prepared to recognize another professional community: its geographers. "Dia do Geógrafo," or "Day of the Geographer," is recognized annually on May 29 by the largest country in the southern hemisphere. Its purpose? To acknowledge the work done by geographers and their contributions to Brazil's past, present, and future.
As a fast-developing "BRICS" (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South
Africa) nation, Brazil will face great challenges in sustaining smart development
over the course of the coming decades. Geographers will play an
important role in planning for the country's sustainable development in urban, regional, and rural settings. Geographers have already
played key roles in education, urban planning, resource conservation,
environmental protection, and population studies throughout the country.
In the United States, Geography Awareness Week is recognized in
November, bringing the importance of geography education to the public's
attention. GIS Day, celebrated on the Wednesday of Geography Awareness Week, is perhaps the closest we come to celebrating geography as a
profession, but it is more a recognition of the tool than the trade (and of course, GIS is used by many professionals other than geographers).
What do you think? Should we recognize geographers with their own day in the U.S.?
Let us know your thoughts by responding in the comments section!

Dropping any reference to Anna Hazare from its publicity material may or may not cost the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) electorally, but the party is looking at a Rs. 4.9 lakh bill to do just that.
AAP moved to remove Hazare's name from publicity material after the social activist asked party leader Arvind Kejriwal not to use his name for campaigning.
AAP had commissioned 200 wall wraps and 38 billboards with the message: "29 December ko pass hoga Anna Hazare ka jan lokpal bill (Anna Hazare's Jan Lokpal bill will be passed on December 29)". This was followed by a tagline: "Is baar imandar party ko vote dein, jhadu pe batan dabayein (This time vote for an honest party, press the button alongside the [AAP's] broom symbol." Following Hazare's plea, the tagline will replace the main message.
"The party paid `60 lakh to outdoor advertising firms. We will complete changing the message in two-three days. This will cost about Rs. 4.9 lakh," said Faheem Khan, who assists AAP in publicity.
But AAP, born out of Hazare's Jan Lokpal movement, is unlikely to completely stop all reference. Kejriwal has written to Hazare: "We do refer to the fact there was an Anna movement in 2011."
A divorce, a jail term, determined foes: Bihar CM Nitish Kumar fighting a lone battle?
The divorce between Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal(U) and a few days of change in residence for Rashtriya Janata Dal's Lalu Prasad – from 10, Circular Road in Patna to the Ranchi jail in Jharkhand – have totally changed the game that is played in Bihar.
Angry with the SP, convinced that the Congress is a losing proposition, unsure of AAP's ability to win, and fearful that Mayawati may ally with the BJP in the future, Muslims have a difficult choice.

"Bare-bone Cameroon"
The cedar sleeves weren t smooth. It almost looked like they had some mold, but I can t say for sure. Regardless, this was sooo much better after having spent two weeks in the humidor than upon arrival. Draw was perfect through a punch hole but the cigar end cracked a little when I did that. Green and slightly bitter notes in the beginning. Once it came into its own it had a smooth, oily, cloying almost sticky profile, that was a little heavy on the aftertaste. Builds up sweetness toward the mid-point. Burnt a little too hot on the second half. A full smoke for sure. Went best with a full-bodied, sweet late-harvest Chardonnay akin to a Trockenbeerenauslese .Stefan in City by the Bay December 15, 2013
"Not bad"
A medium-sweet cigar. The issues was uneven burn and the cigar was falling apart during the smoke, so the construction was an issue. The draw had no issues. All in all not a bad cigar but had some issues.Anthony in California November 10, 2013
"had better"
This cigar was way too sweet and smoked too fast.ben in Pittsburgh April 16, 2012
"Great cigar for a great price"
This is one of my favorites. Nice and smooth, smokes like an ultra premium without the price.Tommy in Tecumseh, MI August 19, 2011
"A better than average cigar"
This was the second one that I tried with similar results. A better than average cigar that had a tight but good draw which made it last quite some time. The first one had some serious construction issues but this time around after sitting awhile they were much less. I must say that this cigar goes well with a crown and water...Dave in North Carolina June 26, 2011
"Fell apart"
Cigar looked great, lit up nicely,smooth draw,BUT. Could barely keep it in one piece long enough to finish it.Construction a big drawbuck to me.Ted in New Jersey March 20, 2011
"Dang fine cigar"
Seeing how beautifully packaged this was, I was thinking it must be covering something up. And it was... something truly great. This cigar has everything going for it. Great construction, perfect draw, full and complex flavor, great burn. I can't find a negative. I've become pretty picky with cigars and this one is top notch.Jackson in California January 28, 2011
"Nice and Smooth, My personal Favorite"
I have tried many different smokes. I got a 1916 in a sampler pack I bought. I enjoyed it so much I figured it must be a fluke. Now after purchasing tons of them and sharing them with my friends, I know it is definately not a fluke. All my friends love them, they all comment on how smooth and tastefull they are.Chris in San Antonio Texas October 29, 2008
"slow and satisfying"
A firm draw but a lot of characterEric Weber in OR October 28, 2006
Excellent by every measure - perfect burn, easy draw and conistently smooth medium flavor from beginning to end.John in Merrill, WI August 26, 2006

Thou movest us to delight in praising You; for You have formed us for Yourself, and our hearts are restless till they find rest in You. - St. Augustine, Confessions.When we haven't found peace in God, we will search for it in the world.
When we haven't realized our need for true unending love found only in a relationship with the Trinitarian love of God, we will search for it in other humans or things. All others will fail us.
This is why young girls will form a pact to all get pregnant together - to attempt to fulfill their need for true love.
The girls who made the pregnancy pact—some of whom, according to Sullivan, reacted to the news that they were expecting with high fives and plans for baby showers—declined to be interviewed. So did their parents. But Amanda Ireland, who graduated from Gloucester High on June 8, thinks she knows why these girls wanted to get pregnant. Ireland, 18, gave birth her freshman year and says some of her now pregnant schoolmates regularly approached her in the hall, remarking how lucky she was to have a baby. "They're so excited to finally have someone to love them unconditionally," Ireland says. "I try to explain it's hard to feel loved when an infant is screaming to be fed at 3 a.m."The one thing they got right is that having sex means you might help create a baby.
But, they forgot that sex outside the proper context is always wrong, for you and the babies who now have teenage single mothers.

Review of chapter "Chapter Seven" from
I knew I was forgetting something, I completely forgot that Jason was writing that. There is something very amusing about the whole AB crew liking BtVS. Xander would be the rallying point for Jason, Nathaniel and probably quite a few others and I can easily see the others choosing their favorite characters. The one thing I wonder about is what the Frilly Lacy French Vampires think about BtVS style vampires. Unless you have something really cool planned for Jason in Sunnydale I would recommend going with your original idea because that would be a nice ending point.
Comments from author:
*grins* I liked the idea of the Anita characters watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and debating the points (like the not-fictional fans did), but I knew just writing a fanfic with the Anita characters merely watching the show would be a bit boring. However, I just never could get the idea out of my head, and so this is what ended up becoming of that idea.
I admit that I could have done more with Jean-Claude to show how he felt about Buffy vamps, like Angel and coffins, but when I got there I couldn't really come up with anything (sadly) so that didn't really pan out like I'd hoped.

Review of chapter "Chapter Seven" from
The formatting in the later chapters, when everything is centred, makes this a little difficult to read. It's much easier on the eyes for things to be standardized to the left, like books are.
I think the idea of the fic is interesting, in general, but I didn't see enough of Jason, his psyche, or what's going on in his life in the fanfic- the entire thing read like you wrote a fanfic, and then decided to make it a crossover by having Jason write it instead, and that doesn't really work all that well as a cross, because it doesn't fit with his character or the Anita canon- there was nothing JASON about the character in this story to me. Interesting idea, but for me, it fell a little flat.
Comments from author:
I'm not sure what you mean about the formatting - I went back and checked, and the only things that were centered (that I could see) was the scene breaks and the "Interlude" stuff, but the actual fic text is not centered.
*sigh* I want to say that with all honesty Jason wasn't the "writer" just to make this a crossover, but I can see how it might seem that way. I've kinda always wanted to do something like this - one character writing another and then getting pulled into the world they were writing.
Still that feeling might be why I keep/kept getting ideas that would add at least one more chapter - if not two - to this fanfic, and since those chapters would be all about Jason in Sunnydale it would certainly feel more crossover-y.

Review of chapter "Chapter Six" from
Is it wrong that I want these characters dead? They get a glimpse of how bad their futures could be and instead of making it better they somehow manage to pervert it even more.
Comments from author:
I don't necessarily think it is wrong to want the characters dead, though admittedly that isn't where I'm going.
Mostly, I like the irony I'm playing with here. They were given a chance to make things better, and instead they've not made things better at all.
Of course, I realize I could have went in a totally different direction here, and one day I might actually come back to this and do an AU of "All Fall Down" where the characters are given the same chance and do actually do things (or most things) right.
(But even if I come back and do an AU of my fanfic, I admit it wouldn't happen for quite some time.)

Review of chapter "Chapter Five" from
I'm fascinated by this story in much the same way people view approaching train wrecks and multi-car accidents - I don't want to see what I know is coming up, but I can't turn my eyes away.
None of the Scoobies you've shown us are at all likable, especially since they know what's coming in the future and still proceed along the same general path their future selves did, making no real effort to try and avoid the problems they know are imminent.
I especially find younger Buffy's behavior appalling, disgraceful and abhorrent in the extreme since she clearly could see how disturbed and mentally scarred her older self was as a result of her previous behavior and yet, she still went ahead and became physically involved with Spike, to the extent that she aided him in avoiding getting chipped, thus endangering her friends and family to a far greater extent than any of her actual enemies did. Her character in particular disgusts me.
You show a Xander who is apparently thinking with his dick, rather than his brain, something that is completely contrary to anything approaching canon, since he has repeatedly gone against what his friends think and want, if he thought it would keep them safe. I have the impression he was leaving his apartment to head over to the Summers house to kill Dawn, and I'm wondering what his reaction will be once he arrives and sees what Buffy has done.
Your portrayal of Will in previous chapters seem to emphasize all her more disturbing qualities while ignoring her loyalty and love of her surrogate family.
All in all, I think that this is, indeed, a universe that would develop from a wish granted by a vengeance demon, since it is a nightmare universe none of the Scoobies would ever want to live in, especially after seeing the doppelgangers allegedly living their lives.
Comments from author:
I don't know what to say really, but I feel like I should try and say something.
Re: Buffy, I admit that I took the worst aspects of her character and played with them here - I kind of liked the irony of knowing that an even younger Buffy would hate the current Buffy right along with the older Buffy.
I know I usually take the better aspects of the characters and build on those, but this time I freely admit that I went in a different direction.
As for Xander, I do love Xander, but I also think there wouldn't have been anything that would have kept Xander from sleeping with Anya, except Anya herself. After all, Xander was little more than a teen when Anya first showed up. So, I decided to play it that once the relationship started Xander would start deluding himself into believing that he could succeed where his older self had failed, though deep down he doesn't really believe it.
As for Willow, she herself did (for a time) ignore those things in canon, in canon she was the worst offender, but obviously she's not the worst in this fanfic. She might even come off a bit better than Buffy or Xander, maybe.
However, Xander and Willow are still loyal people, just in a twisted different way. Xander planned to kill Dawn for the same reasons Giles might have, which I think are better reasons (at the end of the day) than Buffy's, though Buffy tells herself that she was doing it to save the world even she doesn't really believe it.
Anyway, we'll (finally) see Willow in Chapter Six plotting to protect those she loves. Obviously her plans will probably be of the not-so-good considering the overall fanfic, but she does (kind of) have her heart in the right place.
As I told another reader by the end of Chapter Six Spike will probably end up being the only character most people don't hate. Well, not counting the Anita characters, of course, who haven't yet been tainted.

Review of chapter "Chapter Four" from
Ah there's that Buffy that we all know and love to hate. So very sure of her own infallibility while managing to also have confidence issues. No offense but I hope that whenever the AB world comes into this that we no longer have to deal with young!Buffy because with where the Spike thing is leading I think I'll have to puke if it's going where it seems.
Comments from author:
Well, I do have a bit of a twist planned with the Spike thing, though what comes before the twist happens might be a bit puke-worthy. However, the B/S stuff won't really be the main focus of the fanfic.
Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Review of chapter "Chapter Three" from
Int'resting angle.
Dawn as the feather that broke
The camel's back. Huh.
-[ The alteration of all those memories to incorporate Dawn into their lives as a possible cause for several tragedies. Haven't run across this possibility in the fanfics I read. I'm quite intrigued. ]-
Comments from author:
*grins* You've caught what I'm doing. ;)
While I admit several characters (mostly Xander, Willow, Anya, and Tara) didn't seem as greatly affected post-Dawn as others there are three rather key (pardon the pun) characters who did.
Giles and Joyce were to me rather consistantly out of character after the arrival of Dawn (Giles wangsting about and then actually leaving. Joyce acting like Buffy babysitting her kid sis was much more important than you know saving the world), but I have to admit that the overall season five arc for Buffy took the out of character cake for me.
Now I'm not saying that Buffy hadn't had out of character moments before Dawn, cause I believe she did (mostly in season four), but those moments were nothing against her suicide blond act of season five, which I truly believe (and it's doubtful anyone will ever convince me otherwise) was a direct result of the monks meddling around in her head.
But what finally got me to actually put these ideas down in the form of a fanfic was that I watched "Tabula Rosa" again, and that got me thinking about how bad mind-rape in the Buffy universe is shown to be. It was portrayed as being so bad that Tara left Willow because of it. And yet none of the characters were ever shown to really care that they'd actually been mind-raped on a much larger scale by the monks themselves. So, I got to thinking that maybe the monks meddled a little bit more than anyone actually thought/considered, and a fanfic was born. ;)

Review of chapter "Chapter Two" from
This'll be an interesting read after a couple more chapters are up.
All the Dawn!angst is kind of a downer. T_T BUT STILL! The possibilities!!
I'm curious to see how you're going to bring Anita Blake into this. (Comic relief?)
Comments from author:
Well, I'm not sure how interesting you'll find it, because this really is just supposed to be a very short fanfic, probably not more than five chapters.
As for Dawn angst, it is a bit necessary, but mainly just something I've always wanted to do. Most fanfics that have the characters go back to the past show the past with a younger Dawn there as well. That honestly just bugs me, not really because of Dawn or because the fics are bad, because several of the ones I've read are really good. It's just that there was no Dawn before season five - I have the DVDs to prove that no matter what the characters remember, Dawn has not always been among them.
Even more interesting to me is that my thoughts are borne out in season five itself when Buffy does that see the truth spell. The reality she sees is that Dawn's room is a junk room that has been magically altered, and the photos with Dawn have also been magically altered to include her, she wasn't there when they were actually taken.
Sorry, didn't mean to get wordy/ranty there, it's just that I've never seen a fanfic where the characters go back and discover what they remember isn't exactly what really was. Not saying there isn't one out there, just that I've never seen it and I've always wanted to, because from the moment Dawn appeared I've kinda always wondered how all the characters (including her) would react to being smacked in the face with that truth.
As for the Anita characters, or Jason specifically is there to "write" the fanfic. He will be making another appearance soon as he grapples with the "story" - can't remember without checking but it may be Chapter Three, if not it is Chapter Four. Then the whole (well, not the WHOLE) Anita cast show up in the last chapter, and there is an aspect of comic relief to that.

Review of chapter "Prologue/Chapter One" from
An intriguing start, and I'm curious as to exactly who will be killing who.
Younger Buffy killing her older self after finding out that she's been sleeping with Spike?
Older Buffy killing older Xander for wishing them back, after things start going majorly wrong?
Dawn killing younger Willow to prevent her from raising older Buffy after she died/dies in the future?
Lots of ideas to possibly follow up on. Hope to see more of this soon.
Comments from author:
There really is a lot of potential isn't there. More than even I realized when I started this.
/Younger Buffy killing her older self after finding out that she's been sleeping with Spike?/
Or younger Buffy killing Spike to stop any chance of that happening to her. ;)
/Older Buffy killing older Xander for wishing them back, after things start going majorly wrong?/
Or older Buffy killing the younger Xander to maybe hopefully stop him from making the wish in the first place. ;)
/Dawn killing younger Willow to prevent her from raising older Buffy after she died/dies in the future?/
Or Dawn trying to convince the younger Buffy that when the time comes that Dawn herself must jump meaning that she's basically killing herself, or setting herself up to be killed. ;)
I'm not saying any of what I've tossed out above will happen, just agreeing with you that there are many ways the whole thing could play out.

Review of chapter "Prologue/Chapter One" from
Interesting start. I'll bet one of the first things Older Buffy and Dawn do is get Joyce to a doctor. I'm sure saving Joyce will make everything else OK for the Scoobies. Please write more as I love time travel/AU stories.
Comments from author:
*grins* Ah, but you know what they say about the best of intentions, right? ;)
All I'm saying is that it should be kept in mind that it isn't just Buffy who has ideas on what can be said/done to make things better. Well, that and a little something known as the ripple effect - they change one thing and something else could/might change simply to strike back.
Honestly, I'm not planning the following (just throwing it out as an example) - what if they did save Joyce? After bringing Buffy back, Willow mentioned that the universe doesn't like anyone getting anything for free. So, the universe itself might strike back by taking someome else in her place - someone like Giles, for example, which I think would be just as devestating for Buffy and the gang as Joyce death was.
And now after that tease, I'll just close by thanking you for reading and reviewing.

I'm going to follow this, because I'd like to see where it goes and who gets what's coming, and to find out exactly what is coming to them.
I'll be interested to see who's the character death.

As for the character death - there is more than one, but really only one (two?) will count.

Oct. 24 Museum of Flight program looks at the pros and cons of "smart" technologies
SEATTLE, Oct. 15, 2009
--Automated systems make airplanes easier to fly, trains run on time and cars run more efficiently. They can be as simple as an automatic light dimmer or as complex as an autopilot that kicks-in when it "thinks" there is trouble. But can automation be too smart for its own good, leaving humans helplessly out of control when the electronic brain makes a bad choice? Boeing Associate Technical Fellow Victor Riley delivers a fascinating look at our high tech world and the pros and cons of automation. The Oct. 24 program is at 2 p.m. in the William M. Allen Theater, and is free with admission to The Museum of Flight and to Museum members.
Victor Riley is an Associate Technical Fellow in Boeing Flight Deck, Crew Operations/Integration. He has a Bachelor's Degree in Architecture from the University of Arizona and a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology from the University of Minnesota. He spent 19 years in human factors research at Honeywell, and then spent five years as a consultant before coming to Boeing in 2007. In addition to aviation, he has worked in human factors research for railroads, nuclear power, residential, and space systems. He has published over 40 research papers, journal articles, and book chapters in the areas of automation, design methods and tools, and advanced flight deck concepts.

The Museum of Flight is located at 9404 E. Marginal Way S., Seattle, Exit 158 off Interstate 5 (on Boeing Field between downtown Seattle and SeaTac Airport.) The Museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $14 for adults, $13 for seniors 65 and older, $10 for active military, $7.50 for youth 5 to 17, and free for children under 5. Group rates are available. Admission on the first Thursday of the month is free from 5 to 9 p.m. courtesy of Wells Fargo. For general Museum information, please call 206-764-5720 or visit

PBS President Paula Kerger said Monday it is becoming a post-holiday tradition for the show's viewers. The British series debuted its fourth season in late September back home, but PBS holds it back. The drama had more than 10 million viewers in the U.S. when the new season began on Jan. 5.
With "Sherlock," however, PBS is experimenting with a shorter delay. The show's new season began in Britain on New Year's Day and this past Sunday on PBS.
PBS also said it will premiere a British sitcom about two older gay men, "Vicious," in June.

Big-Box Challenge w/ Sarah Richardson: Mudroom
3 comments:
I love love love this mudroom. Its so welcoming and cheery and has all the storage and function you could want. Great recap Tim!ReplyDelete
I need to start Christmas decorating this weekend too! I usually start with putting up the tree. The most time-consuming task, but also the most rewarding.
I dream of having an entryway this spacious - so fabulous! I love how she included a little bench by the front door, it really helps with taking shoes on and off instead of having to walk through the house to find a chair every time! Happy weekend, Mr!ReplyDelete
P.S. I started decorating a little this weekend, too! x
totally! I am so doing this in my future home ... just so cozy and inviting. Forget about it being the mud room, I want it for my entrance!!ReplyDelete
My tree is finally up and now I need to start a major cleaning up. Wish me luck!
