Victoria II Latest News
Paradox begin pre-orders for Victoria II: Heart of Darkness, launches April 16th
The latest expansion to Paradix Interactive's Victoria II can now be pre-ordered. Heart of Darkness adds a lot more ways to "grab and hold colonies in the mad scramble for Africa." It releases mid-April.
Select outlets will offer Victoria I Complete to those who pre-order, or 75% off Victoria titles including Victoria II and Victoria II: A House Divided. This add-on also adds International Crises.
Victoria II expansion revealed, Heart of Darkness brings new colonization
Paradox Interactive is cranking up the industrial machine full steam as they announce Heart of Darkness for Victoria II. The team are expanding the issues surrounding colonization, like disputes.
There's also a new naval system with "greater detail in battles," like range of guns etc along with more ship types. We also get international crisis and a newspaper system to 'filter' out events.
Victoria II: A House Divided expansion announced by Paradox
The first expansion to Victoria II from Paradox Interactive has been revealed. A House Divided is its name and it releases for the grand strategy in Q1 2012.
It brings with it a new 1861 starting point allowing us to kick start the US Civil War. Paradox has released a new written developer diary following its progress.
Paradox "close to 90%" digital sales, retailers 'bad' for creativity
Fredrik Wester, Paradox Interactive CEO, has claimed it a "release" to not be reliant on retailer sales for their games, which are now "like a bonus".
He notes we "don't really need" retail chains any more, which have "not been good" for the industry - stifling creativity. It's "really relieving" to speak about it.
Paradox update their schedule, Hearts of Iron III add-on next up
Those Swedish types at Paradox Interactive have updated their release schedule and next on the list is Hearts of Iron III: For the Motherland out June 28th.
Released yesterday was the free PvP update for Magicka. Supreme Ruler Cold War is due July 19th. 2012 has Crusader Kings II and a Victoria II expansion.

Yeah, this one is waaay overdue, but it was one of those posts I said I'd get around to, but just didn't have time for before I left for CT in December. Now that I'm back, I figured I'd better make good on this.
Well, I'd just like to extend some congratulatory thanks to an incredible JC skipper named Drew (he was wearing a name tag that night that read "Sol", but we found out his real name from another JC Cast Member). Being that the JC is one of my favorite attractions (I love bad, bad, one-line puns http://www.disneyworldtrivia.com/for...ies/laugh4.gif ), I've ridden it many times with many different skippers. Not all were great... admittedly, some were just a complete let down. But more often than not, my JC skippers have rocked the boat. Drew was probably the best example of the latter I have ever had the pleasure of sailing with. He had many of the same old recycled jokes you hear from them all, but had a ton more that I'd never heard of before. The puns started well before we were all even on the boat, and didn't end until we were all off. A couple of favorites I remember from this trip happened during loading and docking:
Drew: Our boat here's already getting quite full, but they [referring to the other CMs loading guests onto the boat] just keep loading more on, and more on, and more on, and more on... (Say it outload to yourself if you aren't laughing yet.) Do you know what that makes them?
We guests: Morons?!?!
Drew: No!... Efficient loaders! [turns to CMs on dock] You guys hear what they just called you?!?
And then just before docking...
Drew: We will be securing this boat with rope, so you may notice a couple of jerks as we pull up to the dock. But don't worry about them, they're just doing their job [motioning towards the CMs on the dock holding the lines].
Sigh... I've never laughed so hard on a JC Cruise before. Loved it. If any of you ever get a chance to take a cruise with Drew, I very highly recommend him.
And Drew, if you ever get around to reading this... awesome job, Buddy! http://www.disneyworldtrivia.com/for...ies/hurray.gif

Jeff - if you are reading, wanted to let you know that I had brought the A & B packets of seeds to IES (Institute of Ecosystem Studies) Greenhouse where I volunteer. We had poor germination but have grown 9 plants. A few have lovely foliage but none of the flowers are that exciting Deborah Kral |

Hello Shanachie, How very nice hearing from you. I am stepping in for Jeff Parkes, who is out of the country on business matters. Yes! we would very much like to know about your experience with the Violet Society Seeds. The planned theme for the Spring 2002 Journal, will be something like, "The Blooming Report". We hope to have reports and photos of Violets in Bloom, from many areas. Perhaps you could consider writing an article for that up-coming issue. Other readers are encouraged to think about doing the same. Please contact me at: firstname.lastname@example.com With Thanks, Jill Ann Williams |

Jill - I am hardly an experienced enough gardener to write an article but am a photographer so will work on getting some acceptable shots! It was exciting to see germination & possible future IDs of what we have. Deborah Kral |
Here is a link that might be useful: IES Greenhouse information
Here it is going on 04 and I just peeked in the door of Violet Society. I would like to grow Parma violets in Baja California Norte...about 37 miles South of San Diego, CA. Its very hot here but temp and shade can be controled. Nurseries don't have plants and I work for a seed company which doesn't handle them. Any ideas? Lois Drake |
- Posted by MikeHardman Hampshire, UK (My Page) on Fri, Dec 26, 03 at 19:03
Lois, Parma seeds are as rare as hen's teeth. You won't find them commercially anywhere (or if you do, be very suspicious - they're probably something else). Even if you do get some, they may not germinate. As far as I know, there is only one grower in the whole world alive today who has produced Parma seeds (and I was lucky and privileged enough to see and photograph one of them). So your best bet for getting Parma violets is still to go for plants. |

Dean Mead attorneys have enjoyed an excellent working relationship with Jack Bovay, one of north central Florida's prominent tax and estate planning attorneys. He formally joined Dean Mead on January 1, 2011 when we opened our fourth office in Gainesville. Mr. Bovay serves as managing shareholder for the Gainesville office, which operates under the name Dean, Mead & Bovay.
Recently, two seasoned Gainesville litigation lawyers joined the Gainesville office including Robert Griscti who has practiced for more than 30 years in corporate regulatory compliance, government investigations, white collar law, professional licensing and discipline, and related civil and criminal litigation and appeals. He has been recognized by Martindale Hubbell as an AV Preeminent lawyer for 30 consecutive years, as well as Best Lawyers of America, Super Lawyers, Florida Trend magazine Florida's Legal Elite, and other peer rated services.
In addition, Jennifer Lester joined the Gainesville office. She is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law by The Florida Bar Board of Legal Specialization. Her practice involves commercial litigation, personal injury, wrongful death and fiduciary proceedings.
Gator Coast Connections
Many of us commonly refer to north central Florida as the Gator Coast. Since several of our lawyers earned their law degrees from the University of Florida Levin College of Law, we were excited by the unique opportunity to go back to our roots and establish the Dean Mead footprint in the Gainesville community.
The firm's connections with the University of Florida continue to grow every year. A number of our lawyers have served as adjunct professors at the law school. Three years ago, the firm developed a partnership with the University of Florida Levin College of Law to teach a new course aimed at third-year law students with an interest in business law. Using a team-based, interactive approach, students learned how to advise entrepreneurs on the legal complexities of a start-up business.
The university and the business community have done an extraordinary job in paving the way for Florida's entrepreneurs. Our firm supports the University of Florida Innovation Hub, the UF Sid Martin Biotechnology Incubator, the Gainesville Area Chamber of Commerce, and CEO to help new companies flourish.
Today, Dean Mead is one of the only law firms in Alachua County strategically positioned to help these companies grow as a result of our full-service, corporate approach to provide legal counsel in practice areas such as finance, mergers and acquisitions, real estate, commercial litigation, tax, estate and succession planning, health law, and employee benefits. The key benefit to our clients is access – to nearly 50 attorneys with unique experience and statewide business relationships.
Giving Back to Our Community
Dean, Mead & Bovay is proud of its commitment and service to the local community through civic organizations and pro bono legal work. Our attorneys not only support charitable organizations within the area, but also take an active role in leadership positions.
One key area of focus for the firm's outreach involves our continuous support of the University of Florida at various levels. Dean Mead has made hundreds of thousands of dollars in contributions to the University of Florida Fredric G. Levin College of Law for the past 25 years. Gifts have included an endowed scholarship, book awards and several eminent scholar chairs. Last year, shareholder Michael Minton made a pledge of $100,000 toward the Michael D. Minton and Mary P. Minton Scholarship in Law to assist students graduating from the UF College of Agricultural and Life Sciences who want to pursue a law degree, and if desired, their LL.M. in Tax.
Managing Shareholder, Jack Bovay, has lived and worked in Gainesville for many years and is deeply invested in contributing to the success of the local business and academic communities. Presently, he serves on the Board of Trustees for the University of Florida Law Center Association. He led the firm's partnership with UF's College of Law to pioneer a new course aimed at third-year law students with an interest in assisting entrepreneurs to navigate the complex areas of business law.
Mr. Bovay also serves as a Trustee of the Washington and Lee University Alumni Board in Lexington, Virginia. He is a member of the Southeast Tissue Alliance, an organization that promotes tissue donation and works throughout the community to increase awareness, educate health professionals and further donation-related research. In addition, Mr. Bovay is past chair of the Gainesville Alliance for Economic Development and the past president of the Gainesville Country Club.
Ms. Lester is the immediate past president of the North Florida Chapter of American Board of Trial Advocates and past president of the Eighth Judicial Circuit Bar Association. Additionally, Ms. Lester is a certified Guardian Ad Litem. She has performed pro bono services for the Eighth Circuit Court Guardian Ad Litem program in Alachua County.

The best and worst Christmas ads of 2012
Dominic Mills judges - at a time when the public mood is decidedly cynical - who this year's winners and losers are in the battle for the best Christmas ad.
We all want honesty in advertising, don't we? Consumers would say they do. Nine out of ten people who work in advertising say they do.
But maybe not at Christmas. Here we have a festival based on a myth and social norms (giving and receiving gifts, entertaining the family, seeing old friends) where dishonesty is the essential social lubricant.
And, of course, Christmas advertising has traditionally reflected this. Happy families, helpful, adorable children, snow machines, celebs selling their souls, tinsel, fairy lights - none of which bear much relation to most people's reality - and that's before we even get to the perfume ads.
And then there's the traditional talking points: surely that's not Myleene Klass in that Littlewoods ad? Who's that cover version by? Where does Heston get those glasses? And why does Iceland's Christmas party food resemble irradiated dog turds?
But things aren't so clear-cut this year.
Overall the mood is subdued. You can see it in the storylines: 'Christmas-is-crap-but-we're-on-your-side' for Asda and Morrisons; the 'no-need-to-go-over-the-top' message from John Lewis and Boots and the more restrained production values exemplified by a celeb-free M&S and a no-frills Waitrose.
You don't have to be a genius to work out that no advertiser wants to be on the wrong side of the national mood, Christmas or not. And they have collectively judged that mood to be at best cautious, at worst negative.
But is that right? Maybe we all need a dose of fantasy to cheer us up.
Now let's look at some of the more interesting efforts...
Dear old Fathers4Justice, who could pick a fight in a phone booth, have gone in all guns blazing on this ad for its supposed sexism. For those who've missed it, it features mum who does all the work for a family Christmas while the men mean well but do nothing.
"Behind every great Christmas there's a mum, and behind mum there's Asda," says the ad. Me, I'm with Asda all on the way on this: it's an ad that tells a fundamental truth, but also spot-on for the Asda target market. And if it annoys Fathers4Justice, well, so much the better.
One-word verdict: Honest
This ad shares the same space as Asda with another harassed mum doing her best to keep it all together for the family. Yes, it's beautifully made with touches of the surreal (the mum actually wrestles a rubber turkey) and the true to life (the needles that fall off the tree the moment it goes up).
But no, it won't do enough to reverse Morrison's recent dire trading performance. Long-term, however, it could help build a real connection with shoppers. Shame the 'For your Christmas' line is so feeble.
One-word verdict: Entertaining
Waitrose is giving the £1 million it didn't spend on a fancy TV ad to good causes. It's certainly different from last year's Hogwarts-style extravaganza (pine-scented sugar, anyone?), but clearly there's no point being good unless you are seen to be doing good - hence a mighty media budget and accusations of hypocrisy.
However, taking a holier-than-thou stance at Christmas is risky. And why has Waitrose been running unWaitrose-like ads pushing three-for-twos on party food? Maybe they're having a panic.
One-word verdict: Marmite
John Lewis
How does John Lewis follow last year's blockbuster? Stick to the formula, that's how: pull those heartstrings and chuck in a soundtrack that's a modern version of an 80s classic.
Snowman goes on seemingly endless quest at the end of which he finds a scarf and gloves for his snow-girlfriend. The message: making the effort for the one you love is what counts, not the size of the gift.
One-word verdict: Slow
At last, a good old-fashioned Christmas ad with all the clichés in one: woman takes long journey from city to snow-covered country cottage, changes clothes many times; also features cute child, snowy landscape and fairy lights.
Bet you thought it was for John Lewis. "Fabulous for Christmas", it says, and indeed it is.
Two-word verdict: Gloriously retro
There's nothing specifically Christmassy about this ad, but it's getting heavy airtime and this is proper Kindle and tablet buying time so to my mind this is a Christmas ad disguised as corporate wank.
The 600lb gorilla of online retailing is putting itself about with the subtlety of a behemoth. That's because the ad is all about itself and its achievements, and entirely lacking insight into, and empathy for, the customer.
The self-regard is breath-taking: "Connecting your mouse to your front door was our moon landing. Creating Kindle was our four-minute mile."
No thank-you, Mr Bezos; get with the true spirit of Christmas - and pay some more tax while you're at it.
One-word verdict: Solipsistic
Dominic will write for Newsline every Monday.
Thank you for your comment - a copy has now been sent to the Newsline team who will review it shortly. Please note that the editor may edit your comment before publication.

Hi gang, I've spent a few days doing a lot of research for a new HTPC build to run XBMC in Windows. So far I've narrowed down my decisions to Intel i3 CPU, Nvidia GT 430 GPU (low profile) and 32gb SSD. All my media will be stored on a separate PC streaming over a wired network to my HTPC.
Where I'm having a hard time is deciding the form factor of my build. I like something small & compact so I'm leaning towards a mini-ITX Mobo and mini-ITX Case, but I need a recommendation for a mini-ITX case that will have ample room to support a GT430 card. Has anyone out there built such a system? If so I would love to know the mobo, case and model of GT 430 card you used.
I've also done some power calculations and it looks like I need a PSU in the 250-300W range to support an Intel i3 CPU, Mobo, one SSD and a GT 430 card. Can anyone recommend a quiet PSU or a quiet case/PSU combo?
If a mini-ITX case is out of the question to support this build then I guess I will have to go with a micro-ATX case. What would you recommend?
As far as a remote control goes I already have a Harmony so I'm leaning towards a MCE IR receiver. I don't mind buying a MCE remote/IR receiver kit but I just won't end-up using the remote. Is it worth while to look for a case which comes with a remote or am I better off buying a separate MCE remote/IR kit?
Thx for your help.
PS. I don't need a DVD/Blu-ray drive for this build.
[WINDOWS] HTPC build, need your advice?

Great recommendations Poofy. I think those mini-ITX cases with a 250W PSU will be pretty quiet. Specially considering the only moving parts in that build are the PSU and GPU fans. I'm not sure how much quieter it can get. My home theater furniture has a glass window in the front which will also tune out further noise.
I think I've figured out my build now: Intel i3-540 CPU GIGABYTE GA-H55N mini-ITX PNY GT 430 GPU Apex MI-100BK mini-ITX case with built-in 250W PSU 2 x 2GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3-1333 40GB SSD Corsair Force Hard Drive HP MCE IR Receiver Windows 7 64-bit + XBMC + PowerDVD 10 for 3D Blu-ray ISO's. All said and done should be between $500-$600 for a 1080p 3D enabled HTPC. Much better than the ASRock Vision 3D if you ask me. |

After my last experiences with a 'Ming Aralia,' I was a bit reluctant to purchase another one (yes, it scarred me that bad... I've never killed a plant so fast in my life). I found this beauty at a local BBS a couple weeks ago and just HAD to try again. It took me awhile to figure out exactly which 'Ming Aralia' I purchased, but it's called 'Snowflake.' So far, I've only lost 5-6 leaves (or branches if you want to be technical), but I believe it's starting to like me. I've noticed some new growth already, and it's recently stopped losing leaves. I believe it enjoys the humidity tray I've placed underneath it. I've already repotted it, overwatered and underwatered it, so the new growth is a sign to me, it's not such the Drama Queen I thought it was going to be (I've read some horror stories about these plants). Just wanted to share, I don't think this is a plant you see every day (if it is, it's... not something I see every day, haha). Planto |
Follow-Up Postings:
oh, it's very nice! variegated ones are not seen often. this one looks like my parsley, only variegated. I am keeping several for close to 5 years, grew large fernleaf from cuttings, and have 2 smaller parsley and one larger ming. I keep mine on water-wicks like AV's to be evenly moist but not wet. but still, they weren't doing that well until I started putting them outside on the balcony when nites get to mid-70s. just in 4-5 weeks they bush out and grow like crazy. without that they were more like 'tree-ferns': just large crowns. had to cut them off eventually, hated to do it, but they were looking too funny. |

Hey Planto, Such a beauty! Variegated to boot. You call the Polyscias, 'Snowflake,' I've seen the same or similar Aralia as Lace Leaf and Fern Leaf. Whichever name is correct, I agree, Aralia's are fussy, and drop leaves if you look at it the wrong way. lol. Although I have problems with Ming's, I've learned a few tidbits along the way. Although ALL care is important, the #1 priority is proper watering. I discovered, watering until soil dries until crumbly is considered proper watering. Hopefully, others will chime in. But, again, your plant is beautiful...love its colors. Toni |
don't know about lace, but it's def not a fern-leaf. I have a fernleaf and it looks like this. just like a fern :). |
- Posted by plantomaniac08 8 (My Page) on Mon, Jul 29, 13 at 15:17
petrushka, I remember seeing your fern Aralia, do you have any pictures of your Ming? At what point (height wise) did you have to cut yours back? I will probably have to cut mine back eventually as well, it's so hot and humid here, I don't think I'd even be able to put it outdoors (not to mention, come August, my outside plants are receiving a full blast of afternoon sun, almost everything burns...). Toni, Planto |
of course I have pics :). I cut it when it gets leggy (that means it's like a palm: stalk with a crown on top), back to the node that has some growth, usually 6"-8" back. you can root the cutting, which is what they do usually to propagate them. I did it only once. it's really bushy, even in winter, since I bag it for 3 months at least to keep it warm and humid. it's multi stalks of course. |
I keep info files, all kinds of clippings from the diff sites. I have a pic of smth that looks very similar to yours, that is called fruticosa 'dwarf variegated'. it's def a fruticosa. and def variegated ;)...self-evident, dr Watson... |
- Posted by hopefulauthor z5IL (email@example.com) on Mon, Jul 29, 13 at 16:22
Pet, ohhh, I love your Fern Leaf, too. I've never seen an Aralia like yours..love the foliage. The Aralia I saw that was either marked Fern Leaf or Lace Leaf variegata, was on Hirt's site. Planto. Often, different sites/nurseries name plants what they want. lol. I agree, less water is much better than over-watering, especially w/Mings. |
- Posted by plantomaniac08 8 (My Page) on Mon, Jul 29, 13 at 16:45
petrushka, Wow, I just love your Aralias (especially your 'parsely,' I had to show my plant what it needs to aspire to look like one day)! 'Snowflakes' or 'dwarf variegated,' either way, as you stated, it's definitely variegated either way. :) Names aren't all that important sometimes haha. Toni, Planto |
toni, I went to search for lace aralia - it's guilfoylei, common name celery leaf, oak leaf, there's 'victoriae' that is variegated. never seen one before, though it's related apparently to Hawaiian hedge panax which I was trying hard to see, hard to get close-up pics. now I am thinking that it does look like lace aralia somewhat. compared with ming 'parsley' it has wider leaves though and not so curly on the edges. here's a pic from commercial site |
planto, if I saw your aralia, I would buy it too. it's really a beauty. I have to say, once I figured out what they like and put them on water-wicks to prevent them from drying out (am an underwaterer, keep forgetting... my duties!) - they are pretty much care free. but I did keep the baby fern-leaf bagged for the whole year! white it was establishing itself. they need very bright light. mine get sev hours of morning light and then western thru sheers : fl to ceil gigantic windows. and they were still dropping leaves in winter! it was because I set nite temps to 65F and near windows gets to 62F - they hated it. once I figured out to bag them - no more drops. by the way, you say you have hi humidity and very warm - that's optimal. 85-95F + above 80% humidity that's just heaven for them. I have 60% in winter and 80% in summer and 70-74 indoors - but that's not enough for ultra growth. |

Tejas 08-27-2012, 01:55 PM Nancy, you may need counseling, but it's not because you tear up when a problem presents itself. It's difficult not to have your partner. Hang up pictures were the paint needs re-touching! :lol: I've done well with food so far...oatmeal, nuts and an apple. ontarget 08-27-2012, 02:56 PM Rhonda, thank you for the new pages. Good idea about hanging pictures. Congratulations on being on plan. Your food looks yummy. Nancy, hang those photos. Then go to counseling. Wish I could go with you. I am doing well op today. We had chicken fajitas/chilli beans for lunch. I had a Fiber One cookie/fruit for bfast. I need to go to the store, but I'm tired. My gf was here shooting all morning. It was hot/humid out there. Took its toll on this old lady. beach bum 08-27-2012, 06:13 PM Hi Ladies:) Can't believed how the time passed away today,I didn't realized that I wasn't on the board this morning. Mary & I didn't go to the Glass Onion as it wasn't open on Sundays so we went to an Italian restaurant instead. RHONDA-Thanks for the new pages.Oh what ever you want. I just follow you guys and its OK with me. SANDRA- No one was hurt and the guy gave men money to repair the cars mirror. Sometimes the hot weather plays tricks on the body where the energy drags. I take G2 Gatorade with low carbs to give me the energy. Have a great day Tejas 08-27-2012, 06:41 PM Ok. I've had yogurt, cheese and strawberries, hummus and carrots....need protein so I think I'll have some bar- b- qued chicken I bought yesterday. I also saw my trainer, did the exercise routine and spent about 3 minutes on the elliptical. I have to make myself stay on heels on the elliptical so it will take some getting back to I believe. But, so far, all is well....iced my foot afterwards. ontarget 08-27-2012, 06:45 PM Maryann, Italian sounds good to me. I'm not a Gatorade fan, but I do drink a lot of water when I'm outside. Rhonda, you are very talented. You can make hummus and carrots sound good. I'm glad you're getting back into your exercise routine. Tejas 08-27-2012, 10:55 PM I finished the food for the day with chicken and a power veggie drink--low sodium V8 blended with strawberries, raw spinach and purslane. And, I'll fess up, I had the last sliver of a chocolate cake I made over the weekend for church events. So, I feel good about food today. I hope you all do also, and if not, tomorrow is another day. nancy237 08-28-2012, 01:47 AM Thanks everyone..I meant to say I don't think I do need a counselor , its just that its normal to have a moment here & there when you have had a big loss.. I think I am dealing pretty well.. A friend that is a good decorator spent the day with me shopping and staging ... How fun..she knows how to shop and accessorize and pull things together. When I get it all done I will post some pictures.. Tomorrow is cleaning day. I have someone coming to help... sloanie 08-28-2012, 08:07 AM Nancy, my dad has been dead for two years, and I still have what I call "daddy days" where I relive the day my family and I witnessed him have his cardiac arrest. I think "moments" are very normal, but I don't think counseling is a bad idea if you feel like you need it. Just do what is right for you! ...and I agree with hanging pics and not worrying about the paint ;) Hey to the rest of you chickies! ontarget 08-28-2012, 10:41 AM Nancy, we'll be waiting to see those pics. I remember what fun I had staging when we were readying our home in Montana. I used to direct plays and thought of this as set design. :lol: I'm off to WI. Tejas 08-28-2012, 01:40 PM Nancy, my husband died 26 years ago and from time to time I have such real dreams about him that I have a day of feeling very raw from the loss. "Moments" are very common and don't mean "unresolved grief" or any other such nonsense that is out there. Staging can be a lot of fun. My Toronto house looked great when I sold it and I enjoyed arranging it. I need to stage this place just for us! :lol: ontarget 08-28-2012, 02:21 PM And our place is staged like an archery shop. :lol: I lost 2.6 this week. We're leaving in a few minutes for Curtis' dr. appt and PT. Ya'll have a good afternoon. beach bum 08-28-2012, 02:49 PM Hi Ladies:) Weather is getting humid again,didn't have chance to walk as it was raining when I got down to the beach. SANDRA-I didn't have any Italian food at that restaurant I had short ribs instead with risotto along with a glass of wine and than for dessert chocolate mousse. Was up on the scale yesterday but now I back to the 161 again. NANCY-Your loss will never go away completely its that way with me also. I have times when I cry but eventually come out of it. With me my faith has made me whole,and now I can go forward. Have to go and start my chores. Tejas 08-28-2012, 05:40 PM Sandra :hug: :lol: She's right, folks, it is like an archery shop....and, they look right at home in it. ontarget 08-28-2012, 07:21 PM :woohoo: Maryann! We're home from PT and the doctor. Curtis is doing super great. What a blessing! We just had some 15 bean soup for dinner. I still have 2 pts left. Think I'm having 2 frozen peanut butter cups. Tejas 08-28-2012, 09:10 PM I made okra gumbo with chicken tenders, and jalapeno cornbread for dinner. It was good. Glad to hear that Curtis is doing well. I was in a lot of pain last night. I read last night on line that it take 3 months to get back from the surgery and that the swelling can last for 7 months!!! Let's hope not. I went to tap and walked around but mostly I stayed off my foot today. pam920 08-28-2012, 09:43 PM hello chickies. Nancy, I love to decorate and look forward to seeing your pics. I think you are doing great and if you don't feel you need counseling, you know what is best. I get weepy a lot these days, when something will hit me and I remember all my family that has passed. I'm the matriarch of the family now and it sucks. woohoo Sandra. That is a super loss. You are doing great. Wish I could say the same. Maryann, glad you only had to replace your mirror and no one was hurt. Rhonda, you probably shouldn't have gotten on the eliptical. My knee, after surgery, would swell off and on for a couple years. I've been busy getting the *room* together. I'm doing a couple watercolors to hang above the headboard. I've done acrylics and oils but never tried watercolors. I didn't have to buy anything, already had the paper and paints. I told you I'm a craftoholic, so I'm pretty much set if I ever want to do any type of craft. Watching Isaac reports. It's hit land in LA. Hope everyone stays safe. ontarget 08-29-2012, 10:07 AM Rhonda, your gumbo sounds tasty. I'm sorry you're having pain. I imagine Curtis is having more than he's letting on. It does take awhile to heal. I hope you're back tapping soon. Pam, I am impressed with your talents. Good thing I can shoot. That's all I'm saying. :lol: We're up early today. My gf is coming in a bit. We'll go out to lunch then another gf is coming over around 4. I have mixed emotions about subbing. I'm enjoying being retired but I do like being around the kids. Tejas 08-29-2012, 11:07 AM Ok, no elliptical for me--Pam is right. Good luck with those watercolors. I have some cute ones that I did in the late 80's but it's a difficult medium. Not that I found oil or acrylic much easier :lol: Have you ever done batik watercolors with hot wax? I love that and made some very nice ones, IMHO. I should frame them and hang them up. I love stained glass but haven't done much lately. I'm entering a crafts fair for November to get myself back to jewelry making. I'm going to add shrimp to the gumbo. To be really authentic it should have some sausage too, but we don't need the fat. Sandra, you're lucky to have the subbing available. I wouldn't mind doing a little teaching, but there are essentially no university- level teaching jobs here. I have a friend who is a Dean in Dallas who says he'll give me a job anytime, but frankly I'm not driving to Dallas for any reason :-) The traffic is crazy and dangerous. Off to the rest of the day now. I need to follow Pam's and Nancy's examples. ontarget 08-29-2012, 05:22 PM Rhonda, what about community ed? Just a thought. Some universities offer programs for the public. I wouldn't drive to Dallas either. Vickie 08-29-2012, 06:01 PM Good Afternoon Chicks! Sorry I've been missing. I've been busy. What new! Brodie is doing well but continues to be finicky with his eating. He is not liking the Honest Kitchen anymore. I'm thinking about switching him to canned so that I can give him some variety from day to day. Can any of you recommend good premium grain free canned food? I'm cooking again today. Turkey Sausage Spicy Marinara with mushrooms and zucchini. It's really delicious and freezes well. It's one of the ones that I cook fresh pasta when I serve it. Sandra, you are doing fabulous. I'm so proud of you. Are you exercising too? Rhonda, it's hard to be patient. I decided not to walk today since I had a lot of stuff to do around the house and was planning to cook. I just have to pace myself. Not something I'm good at. Pam, you and Rhonda are so talented. I do not have an artistic gene at all. I hope you're feeling better. Your symptoms sounded scary to me too. Nancy, you are doing amazing. A moment of tears here and there is reasonable to me. It took me a long time to get over my fiance's death and we had only been together for a couple of years. You were with Robin a LONG time. Your pain is not going to go away quickly. Sloan, I'm not doing great either but I'm trying to be more aware. That's all I can say for myself. You sound motivated and busy! Why are you taking classes? Will you have an advanced degree? Now for a bubble bath and then I cook dinner. ontarget 08-29-2012, 08:32 PM Ahhhhhhhh. A bubble bath! Sounds wonderful, Vickie. I'm not exercising, but I have been doing some walking outdoors today. A gf and I talked about going to a Zumba water aerobics class tomorrow, but I seriously doubt we'll do that. :lol: nancy237 08-29-2012, 11:41 PM Vickie... That Turkey Sausage Spicy Marinara sounds like a great recipe. Is it online anywhere ??? sloanie 08-29-2012, 11:54 PM Hey chickies! Hope you all are having a good evening. To answer Vickie's question: I am working on a bachelor's degree in Health Management. I have an associate degree in nursing and am also a certified teacher. I realized during this education crisis that we have been having that all I have to bring to the table is an associate's degree if I should lose my teaching job. That would only get me a job doing patient care, and I am way too old for that. I have always wanted to further my education, and I am finally taking the first step. The program starts in January and is once a week for 18 months. I am doing a stats class and a religion class to complete the core requirements for the university. I am really busy right now, but I am eating well so far. I'll keep you posted on my progress. Have a great night, y'all! ontarget 08-30-2012, 12:26 AM Kudos, Sloan!!!! Vickie, I'd like to know more about that recipe, too. pam920 08-30-2012, 12:46 AM stopping in real quick before I shut down for the night. I am getting fatter by the day. What is wrong with me? Why am I eating so much bad stuff? Vickie, the marinara sounds really good. Could you share the recipe? Hope you can find something Brodie will eat. Sandra, Your talent is shooting. That's something I know I would not be good at. Rhonda, no, haven't tried anything with watercolors until recently. I bought my paints and pencils a long time ago, but never used them. I have never tried stained glass or jewelry either. I would love to try stained glass. I wouldn't drive into Dallas either. The traffic is bad, from what I remember. I visited a friend in Plano once and remember the Dallas traffic. Sloan, good to think ahead, with times like they are these days. Sounds like something you could handle, being only one day a week. Have you lost any more weight? Are you still on that diet? I see my dr. in 2 wks and he is not going to be happy with my blood work or weight. I look forward to going to Florida. I know at least I will walk every day while we are there. It's just too hot here to get out and walk and I really don't enjoy the treadmill. I know, I'm just making excuses. Have a good evening. nancy237 08-30-2012, 03:00 AM I am not sticking to any diet... Wonder what would happen if I set a pound a week goal and I either lose it the easy way(sensible diet) or do a tough love approach at the end of the week to meet the goal.. I may make up a chart..Just a pound a week would be fine if I stuck with it. sloanie 08-30-2012, 07:31 AM Pam, I am still on "the diet", but have not lost any this week. The only thing I have changed is I started having my morning coffee again with sweetener and low fat creamer. Not sure if that has anything to do with it, or if I am just on a little plateau. If I have stayed the same for a couple more days, I will lay off the sweetener and creamer and see if that changes anything. I'll let you know. The photo is me and my DH at DD's wedding last year :) Vickie 08-30-2012, 11:55 AM Good Morning Chicks! I'll be back to catch up but did post my recipe in the main dish thread. You could probably cut it in half if you aren't the freezing kind of Chick. ontarget 08-30-2012, 12:34 PM Vickie, thank you for the recipe. I'm going to plug it into etools to see points value for Points Plus folks. It looks delicious!!! Pam, as we say in archery, "A poor excuse is better than none at all." You'll be back on track soon. I am always impressed by your food choices. I remember your saying you don't choose much off List C on "The diet." List C is where I'd be hanging out all the time. Sloan, I love the new avatar. What a cute couple!!!! I hope you don't have to give up your coffee the way you like it. Good luck. I'm making picante chicken in the slow cooker. That'll be for later. We're having fajita chicken, broccoli/cauliflower, and bell pepper/onions/ff rf beans for lunch. Just pulled a Lucy stunt. Phone just rang. I'll tell you later. pam920 08-30-2012, 09:08 PM hello chicks. sloan, I can't see how a cup of coffee can make that big a difference. I'm thinking plateau. I know staying at 145 was a constant struggle for me. I don't know how I stayed at 126 until I reached 45. Guess I was younger and more active. Now I'm a slug. I use the sugar free cremora (hazelnut, caramel, etc). I think a tablespoon is a serving but I only use a level teaspoon. I have a measuring spoon I use and if I put more than that in, it gets too sweet for me. Maybe try something like that. Sandra, I usually try to eat healthy, but have been snacking more and more on processed foods. For years I stayed completely away from them. They have these popchips at TJ Maxx and I'm addicted to them. Vickie, thanks for posting the recipe. I'll check it out when I post this. Tejas 08-30-2012, 11:13 PM Yesterday I worked in my study, shredding and recycling. Today I worked in the yard, pulling weeds and unwanted grass. Also planted some flowers. Feeling good. I'm not typing much now because my right arm and hand are hurting---nothing serious, an old neck injury aggravated today with garden work...take my mind off my foot! Sorry not to respond to everyone--I'll catch up. beach bum 08-31-2012, 03:58 PM Hi Ladies:) Another busy day I walked this morning for 1/2 hr along the week and than I had to go back to Walmart to exchange the Centrum multi vitamins from under 50 to woman 50+. At the same time I bought 4 bottles of flavored water and than forgot to take my second pkg. Than after lunch I had to make a second trip tick up my other two bottles,battling the traffic with some of these idiot tourist,spending time here for the Labor Day Weekend. You wouldn't believe the accidents so far and its only Friday. Mary and I are going out on Sunday to the movies to see ICE AGE. the only decedent movie up here. We're waiting to see the new movie with Meryl Streep[Hope Springs],but it hasn't arrived in our theaters. Obama in 2016 is up here but in the next town,to me that not entertainment.We're also waiting for The Odd Life of Timothy Green. Have to go will come back tomorrow. ontarget 08-31-2012, 08:37 PM I subbed today for high school boys' PE. It was good to see everyone. I'm going back Wed for the at risk program. I was the first teacher that taught that class in Alvarado back in the 90's. I made some food choices today that will take me further from goal. (Is that a good way to say it?) I'm heading over to etools to post and see how much damage I did. Pam, I have my addictions, too. Guess they could be worse, don't you? Rhonda, be careful in that heat. It's so oppressive. I hope you're feeling better. Vickie, right after I plugged your recipe in etools, I noticed it already had all the nutritional info. I didn't have to plug it in at all. Thank you again for posting it. nancy237 09-01-2012, 02:47 AM Long day of yard work ...Lots got done but I still need to get gravel and sand for the paver walkway spread. Fell asleep from 7 pm til 10 pm..I was sick last night with a stomach bug so I think I am not back 100% from that. Cousin is coming in the morning for a few hours but I think I would rather go to breakfast and get out of house than work on house projects . vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

I would like to see pictures of your stone fireplace with a mantel. Husband has finally agreed to add a mantel after many years of discussing. If anyone can tell us the best way to attach a wooden mantel to the stone, it sure would be helpful. Thanks |

We put up a mantle about 2 years ago, after many years of not having one, and we love it. We made the mantle... It's hollow inside and fits over angle brackets that we drilled into the stone. The mantle top and bottom was scribed to the stone. We made the mantle out of black walnut. I am now thinking about making two walnut brackets as well, but not sure... Joann |
- Posted by gagesgranny (My Page) on Thu, Jan 22, 09 at 19:33
Boy, we love your mantel and all of your decor. This is "our style" for sure. My husband wants to know what caliber that rifle is---ha/ha. He would rather be hunting than trying to figure out how to put this mantel up. Your's looks so great. Does some of your stones protrude out farther than others? Our's does. Was it difficult to scribe the mantel to the stones and how did you do this? I love the idea of the walnut brackets. I would love that too but I will settle for getting this mantel up. If you have any more tips, please let us know. So many questions, I just have to keep husband focused until this job is done. Thanks so much |
- Posted by cliff_and_joann (My Page) on Fri, Jan 23, 09 at 6:12
I'm glad you like it. Yes, keep hubby focused. The mantle is really a manly thing...LOL...He should enjoy making one. Our FP stone is Pennsylvania Mica. My hubby and a friend built it in 1976 and only two years ago we added the mantle... Tell me about your Fireplace (do you have a pic?) Does the stone go all the way up, like ours does. Some fireplaces the stone has wall board above it, and the mantles sit 'on top' of the stone. If that's the kind you have, I think you wouldn't have to scribe the wood.(that's why I'm asking) I'll get more specific on how we made this mantle (I have photos of the project as well) First tell me about your FP and how big (how think and how deep) are you planning to make the mantle? after all these years I finally have a place to hang our grandchildren's stockings! The gun is my favorite gun from hubby's antique gun collection...It's a Wesson (before Smith and Wesson merged) |

I will attempt to post a picture but not sure if it will work out or not. Here goes: |
Here is a link that might be useful: Living Room at Christmas

Ok, so your stones go all the way up, however they don't protrude a lot like ours does, so it will be easier. Here is how he did it.... He cut a piece of 1/4 " thick paneling --several inches wide and the length we planned on making the mantle. Then he cut a small piece of wood (think of a piece of wood that is the size of a nail file, only thicker) and drilled a hole a few inches back Here is a shot of the hollow inside of the mantle The mantle is 3" thick... |
- Posted by cliff_and_joann (My Page) on Fri, Jan 23, 09 at 9:08
This is the photo of the FP with the brackets atttached. The mantle just slips on and hugs the stone snugly. The brackets are the only thing holding the mantle. What wood are you going to use? This is a close-up of the black walnut. It is just finished with several coats of a hand rubbed mixture of linseed oil, poly and turpentine. |
- Posted by gagesgranny (My Page) on Fri, Jan 23, 09 at 18:06
Thank you so much. We are not sure what kind of wood yet but I want something dark, walnut or cherry. I so appreciate all of your details and it is going to help us so much. You mentioned your mixture of linseed oil, poly and turpentine did your buy it mixed that way or did you mix it yourself. You mantel looks so shiney and wonderful. Also your stones have a nice clean shiney look, do you put anything on them to make them look this nice? Ours are just rocky looking. Guess we will be going to Lowes tomorrow and get supplies for this project. Wish us luck and will keep you posted on progress or delays. |
- Posted by cliff_and_joann (My Page) on Fri, Jan 23, 09 at 18:20
You're welcome. We mix the slurry ourselves, about 1/3 of each and apply it with a rag -- rub it on gently like you're applying a light wax. Let it dry thoroughly 24 hours or more (the first coat always takes longer) sand lightly with 0000 steel wool between coats. Wipe down thoroughly after sanding and apply the next coat. It appears shiny because of the lights and camera flash, however it really has a very soft luster. We do at least 3 or 4 coats on all wood projects ...Or you can also just use Minwax semi-gloss polyurethane. The stone we cleaned just this summer, we used a mix of vinegar and water and a soft brush. Then we just rinsed it with water. It really cleaned up the old stones and brought back them back to life. Good luck, keep us posted on your progress. joann |

I love, love, love your fireplace -- the mantel and decorating. I have a stone fireplace with built in white shelves/cabinets on either side. I would like to add a mantel (preferable NOT white) and really love your design. How did you add the sconces? I never thought about hanging my father's guns to the fireplace -- great idea. Of course, the horns are to die for. Thank you for the step by step design of the mantel. Am going to put my husband straight to work just in time to hang the stockings for Christmas. |
- Posted by cliff_and_joann (My Page) on Tue, Nov 20, 12 at 23:42
hi, I just saw this thread...the electric boxes were wired for the sconces when we built the fireplace. please post a pic when your fireplace mantel is done. |

I first tried Laura Mercier in 2010 and have used this foundation powder every day since! I have a very difficult pinky/yellow skintone and liquid foundation would never match. This powder gives my acne prone skin great coverage and lasts most of the day without needing a touch-up (and I have a very oily t-zone!) The nurse at my dermatologist's office told me my skin looked great, I said no, it's just my makeup - she couldn't tell I had any on! I apply it with the LM powder brush. It wastes more product but looks a lot more natural than applying with a sponge. I go through a compact about every 6 weeks and just buy 2-3 at a time so I always have one on hand. It is expensive but I have not had to wear liquid foundation in 3 years!!! My HG foundation!

I am older and this powder does not work for me. I find the coverage very heavy. I also had trouble finding the shade I wanted. I have no. 2 and 3 shades, both seem pink. I have fair skin and use either the pink or yellow tones as I am so very neutral.
I can see why younger people would like this
foundation because I do believe it lasts well on the skin and in the summer . But, for me, I use it only as a setting powder, and that very sparingly. Even though I had used very little of this powder, I hit pan immediately. This compact has very little product, especially when compared to Estee Lauder and Lancome, which are very generous. To each his own. I have good skin and do not need but a little coverage. Update: I forgot to add that I love the little square puffs and ordered more:)

I originally started using this because my skin started to get quite oily during the summertime and I was going through packets and packets of oil absorbing sheets ... My friend recommended it and so I decided to try it. Well this helped a ton with that issue! It makes your skin look flawless if you have generally clear skin. I don't like to wear heavy makeup and this is perfect for me!
I do use this everyday as part of my makeup routine and it only lasts me about 3 months ... It runs at $40 at Nordstrom so it can add up if you reapply it during the day.

holy cow -- i just picked this up yesterday, after asking a Sephora employee what she recommended for a light powder foundation (usually I do a ton of research beforehand and don't consult with anyone in the store)... SO glad she pointed me in this direction!!
The color is a damn near PERFECT match for my super pale, but yellow-undertoned skin (I got the "real sand" color), and it just looked so smooth and nice when it went on... I was thoroughly impressed. Definitely my HG powder right now.

Age: 25-29 Skin: Acne-prone, Fair Hair: Other Eyes: Green
I give this product 3/5 because i was not fully satisfied with this product. Starting off, i have mild/moderate acne and some acne scars that have a pink/purple pigmentation color. This powder foundation used together with concealer did not hide any of acne scars and actually made them stand out more. Additionally, Laura Mercier's Powder Foundation did not last very long while wearing it throughout the day. By the afternoon my makeup looked rubbed off and there was absolutely no coverage. The only benefit of this make up is that it did not break me out and I think it truly is made of quality ingredients. Unlike the over the counter products sold in super markets, i believe this is a well made product and will not cause irritation or breakouts.

Perfect!!! Finely miled powder, high quality, lasts a long time. Great for my yellowy pale skin, best match I have ever found! Holy grail! On a lazy day I use this, over the tinted moisturizer this is gorgeous too. I can't say enough about this!! Doesn't break me out at all. At first if it's a I'll powdery, in 10 mins, totally melts in your skin! Lovely lovely!! Always will re buy this! I also rotate and use the oil free tinted moisturizer in porcelain. The powder I use the 1.

This was one of the few products that didn't cause me to breakout, so I have to say that is a plus. It has great coverage however my skin is oily, and by the middle of the day I have blotchy, darker-than-normal spots on my cheeks where the foundation has become gooey. And it is not fixable! You have to completely remove your makeup midday and re-apply this if you need it to even last a total of 8 hours.
I cannot figure out why Laura Mercier only made this in 7 shades! They are not even close to one another. I had to buy No. 3 and then use a bronzer on top of it which never looked right because there was way too much powder on my face! I tried No. 4 and it didn't have the right color to it so I was unable to stick with No. 4 either.
I switched to Aveda's Dual Foundation Powder and they offer more shades, and the texture and coverage is more natural but with more suitable color options!

I bought this powder to replace Lorac's Evening Out, which was discontinued last year, and I still can't decide if I like this product or not. Here are the pros: it's oil-free, fragrance-free, doesn't break me out, has excellent coverage for a foundation powder, and gives you that soft, flawless look that we all want. But then there are the cons: it comes in very limited shades (7 in total) and tends to get chalky or cakey. I have this in No. 1 and No. 2 because I'm in between shades. The No. 1 is too yellow and light for me, while the No. 2 is too pink and dark for me. Right now, because it's summer, I can get away with wearing the No. 2 by itself, but otherwise, I have to blend the two shades. I don't mind doing that, but what bothers me is that the powder tends to get chalky. It does eventually "melt" into your skin, but even then, it still looks a bit cakey and settles into your pores (and I have small pores and wear a primer). I never had that problem with Evening Out, and I'm surprised that a foundation powder that gets such rave reviews would do that. To minimize the caking, I apply one layer of the powder with a kabuki brush. If I apply two layers, I get more of a flawless look, but then up close, the powder looks cakier, so I generally stick to one layer. This powder would probably look better at night, but in daytime or bright lighting, I feel that I have to check my face in the mirror more often.

Sega, much like Capcom, has a special relationship with the '80s and '90s videogame generation, a legacy that is built on the solid foundation stones of memorable games and characters.
But whereas the Resident Evil creator has managed to retain that magic for its modern day releases, rarely do we see the glimmer of the Sega of old. So when something like Afterburner Climax rolls round, we have to sit up and pay attention.
Birthed in the arcades in 2006, this combat flight shooter is a direct sequel of the 1987 original, retaining all the intense reaction-based arcade gameplay and blasting it with the visual sheen afforded by today's arcade technology. Developer AM2 polished off proceedings with a massive moving, rumbling cabinet that reflected the on-screen action.
Even with the living room downscale and cabinet replaced with rumbling pad, Afterburner loses not a jot of its character and we'd argue that taking away the distraction of the your spine being loosened by the vibrations actually allows you to appreciate the game's finer points. These include the Climax mechanic itself.
It looks and sounds impressive when you've got two subwoofers blasting it into your body, but this slow-mo initiation multiplies your single missile lock-on and gives you time during the lightning-fast gameplay to target and take out entire squadrons of enemy fighters. Your hit ratio is calculated at the end of each stage and combines towards your overall score and online Leaderboard ranking.
It's old-school gameplay, learning enemy attack patterns and increasing your reaction time to dodge incoming missile waves, and branching stage selections à la Outrun let you mix up your subsequent run-throughs.
However, while Afterburner does include unlockable game changing extras and a Score Attack option, for thrills-a-second gameplay we fear the enjoyment will burn out rather swiftly. Yet given it's two quid a pop in the arcades, the just-under seven quid XBLA version comes out trumps. Go for it.
Truly climactic entertainment
- Fast and furious
- Looks fantastic
- Improves motor functions
- EX Options increase longevity
- Options could be more extensive

All children and adults are diverse! Diversity does not simply refer to race, ethnicity, language, special needs, or sexual orientation. While it may include these qualities, it's much broader. For example, we may be different from each other because of our age, how our families are arranged, our body shape, whether we're rich or poor, the language(s) we speak, where we live, or our learning style. Everyone has rights and should be treated with respect regardless of their perceived difference. Respecting diversity entails being inclusive.
How can we become more inclusive in our daily lives? According to 11 year old Kellen Schleyer who has cerebral palsy and attends Ottawa's St. Jerome Elementary School, "sometimes mom[s] and dad[s] try to hide [my disability] so it doesn't make me feel bad, but I don't mind if they ask the questions. I'm just a normal kid but in this [wheel]chair." Child-Life specialist, Nora Ullyot says these are subjects that we should discuss with our children. Rather than saying, "They can't do things, encourage children to see how children with physical challenges do things differently, or that their body works differently."
For those hoping to build more inclusive schools and communities, it is important to begin by carefully listening to understand how people define their own situation, their aspirations and assets, and the challenges they face. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child refers to the importance of respecting diversity throughout its articles. For example, a child friendly language version of Article 2 states that:
All children [under 18 years of age] have these rights, no matter who they are,
where they live, what their parents do, what language they speak, what their religion is,
whether they are a boy or girl, what their culture is, whether they have a disability,
whether they are rich or poor. No child should be treated unfairly on any basis.
More about the importance of respecting diversity and promoting inclusive communities can be found by reading the following fact sheets.

Men's Basketball Heads to Santa Clara
Nov. 26, 2003
Game 2: Fresno State (0-1) at Santa Clara (0-2)
The Broncos tipped off their year earlier this week at the Maui Invitational. After opening the tournament with a 56-43 loss to Hawaii, SCU fell to Villanova 53-51 in overtime then played Central Michigan on Wednesday evening. Following Saturday's game, Fresno State has only one road non-conference remaining this season.
The Broncos hold an 18-9 lead in the all-time series, although Fresno State has not lost to Santa Clara since the 1995-96 season, a span of four games. The Bulldogs have struggled mightily against SCU on the road, posting a record of just 1-12 all-time. The last time the two teams hooked up in the Bay Area came in 2000, which resulted in a Fresno State win that was later vacated due to the Bulldogs' use of an ineligible player. The team's only official road win at Santa Clara came in 1949.

Editors' Top PicksSee All
It's always been a shame that Nokia's E series of smartphones (as well as the Nokia N series for that matter) rarely make it to U.S. carriers since they offer great business features in slick designs. However, AT&T customers got good news at CTIA 2009 when the companies announced that the carrier would bring the Nokia E71x to its shelves.
Sharing the same design (though coming in a classic but sexy black color) and similar features as the unlocked Nokia E71, the E71x is an extremely sleek and messaging smartphone for business users. However, AT&T made an attractive device even more attractive by giving the Nokia E71x a $99.99 (with two-year contract) price tag. It's a great value, especially compared to AT&T's other QWERTY smartphones, such as the Samsung Epix and RIM BlackBerry Bold, considering what you get and the quality of the phone's design.
For this review, we'll be concentrating on the new features and performance. For more information on the Nokia E71x, including full details on its design, please check our full review of the unlocked Nokia E71.
As we noted earlier, the Nokia E71x's features are akin to the unlocked version, but it adds a number of AT&T services, including AT&T XpressMail, AT&T Navigator, Yellowpages.com Mobile, and AT&T Music and Video.
We tested the quad-band Nokia E71x in San Francisco using AT&T service and call quality was good. We enjoyed mostly clear audio during our conversations with just some minimal hissing in the background, and we did experience a dropped call. On the other end of the phone call, our friends reported no major problems or complaints. Speakerphone quality was decent with good volume.
