A new Ipsos Reid survey reveals that Canadians support recent policy measures taken by the Minister of Industry, Maxime Bernier, to reduce regulation in the local telephone services market.
A clear majority of seven in ten (68%) indicate that these regulatory changes would be "acceptable" to them and 25% say these changes would be "very acceptable" to them. Moreover, the same strong majority of
Canadians (68%) indicate that they would find such changes acceptable even in local telephone markets with just two telephone providers. A majority of Canadians also agree that:
* "All companies that compete in the field of telecommunications should be treated the same way by federal policies" (93% agree);
* "Traditional telephone companies should be able to waive service charges, like a $55 re-connection fee, as a consumer promotion" (87% agree);
* "If a consumer switches to a different residential/home telephone service provider, traditional telephone companies should have no restrictions and should be able to immediately compete to win-back that consumer's business" (85% agree); and
* "Philosophically, I believe that consumers, not government regulators, should determine what price to pay for residential/home telephone services" (77% agree).
The high degree of support from the Canadian public for these new policy measures is likely driven in part, by the fact that most (61%) feel, in their situation, there is an adequate choice of competitors from which they can buy local telephone service.
Other prominent findings further indicate strong support for the Federal Government's new policy:
* 82% support the removal of restrictions on the traditional telephone companies' ability to bundle services (45% strongly support);
* 79% support the removal of promotional restrictions faced by traditional telephone companies (38% strongly support); and,
* 63% support changes resulting in the Competition Bureau, as opposed to the CRTC, now having oversight of the local telephone services market and the ability to seek fines if companies were to act improperly (25% strongly support).
Government retirement programs will provide Doucet between $16,000 and $17,000 a year, which is poverty level in Moncton.

I'm sorry, but I don't believe that a single person with a house and an after tax income of $15-16k a year in Moncton qualifies as "poverty level".
I think Ms. Doucet's plan (like Dickson's Free Parking plan) is worth considering for a lot of people. Sink all your money into a house, paying off any mortgage. Claim a property tax deferral if possible (and it's possible in many places now, although I can't say for Moncton). Collect $16k a year after tax from the government, plus whatever other freebies are offered to "low income" seniors.
I don't think that's "poor" under any reasonable definition of the word.

Less than two years after share prices collapsed, China's stock markets are almost going mad, actually, with the leading Shanghai Composite Index approaching 3,000 and Chinese investors flocking to buy shares in record numbers. The bull market is so powerful — the Shanghai market hit a record high last week and was among the best performing in the world last year — that one senior Chinese official has warned against "blind optimism."
College students, young professionals, retirees and others are buying individual shares or investing in China's swelling mutual funds. One mutual fund raised $5 billion in a single day. Day trading, meanwhile, is becoming popular with investors, many of whom monitor the market from home on personal computers.
Mark Carhart looks out over the packed New York conference and tells investors that Warren Buffett has it all wrong... Though he doesn't like to talk about it, Carhart is one of the world's most successful money managers, a mastermind behind Global Alpha, a $10 billion hedge fund for wealthy clients and employees of Goldman Sachs...
Carhart, a former assistant professor of finance at the University of Southern California, helps oversee other hedge funds, four mutual funds and scores of separate accounts. In all, he and Iwanowski have $101.5 billion at their command. Carhart and Iwanowski use math-heavy trading tactics that fund consultant Sol Waksman likens to counting cards in a casino. The two lead a corps of computer-loving traders, statisticians and finance and economics Ph.D.s...
Carhart never reveals the secrets. Old friends and people who've invested in the fund say they're not really sure how it works. John Cochrane, one of Carhart's professors at the University of Chicago, says that based partly on what Carhart has told him -- not much, he admits -- Goldman Sachs has devised five or so proprietary risk factors for equity markets...
Fama still recalls how hard Carhart worked on his dissertation, entitled ``Survivor Bias and Mutual Fund Performance.'' Carhart found a company in Des Moines, Iowa, that had kept old data on mutual funds, Fama says. Carhart had the numbers keyed into a computer by hand -- a process that took several years. Using this database, he found that mutual fund figures artificially inflated returns because fund companies tended to shut laggard funds or merge them into other funds, stripping their performance numbers from totals.``He's one of the most-persistent people I've met,'' Fama says of Carhart. Today, the database lives on at the Center for Research in Security Prices at the University of Chicago...

...As financial reporting and automated spreadsheets have become more advanced, moreover, the sense that price targets and other similar estimates are, in fact, estimates has largely disappeared. Bank of America's Brian Pitz, for example, painstakingly concludes that Google is worth precisely $601 per share—after making several subjective assumptions that, slightly tweaked, could easily have pinpointed its value at, say, $428 or $642 (or, for that matter, if Brian were in the mood to forecast extremes, $189 or $1,033). The $601 target is no doubt of great comfort to Bank of America's legal and compliance departments, because the diligence, precision, and reasonableness of Brian's calculations are indisputable. Unfortunately, the faux-precision implied by the target is a mirage.
The safest way to think about stock values is to recognize that even the best analyst is the equivalent of a blindfolded hunter shooting at a moving target a hundred yards away. Given the extreme difficulty involved in hitting the target, the analyst's gun of choice should not be a rifle or laser beam. Rather, it should be a sawed-off shotgun.
Although Wall Street compliance departments will likely continue to insist that analysts create pinpoint price targets, smart investors should never forget what they really represent: the midpoint of a wide range of subjective guesses. In Google's case, even the Street-wide range of $415 to $650 is probably too narrow: It's reasonable assuming nothing radical happens, but in the stock market, "radical" events happen more often than they should statistically be expected to.
As John Kenneth Galbraith noted, there are two kinds of forecasters: those who don't know and those who know they don't know. If you must be a forecaster, at least be the latter kind.

"The outstanding qualities of the SR60s were the warmth and honesty of their sound" Stereophile , May 3, 2010

Hear your music like never before with the Grado SR60i headphones. Priced as an affordable set of headphones, the SR60i is not to be mistaken as a entry-level set. These advanced drivers are able to accurately replicate the music from your iPod, iPhone, home theater system, computer, or anywhere else you wish to connect it to. Like many of the higher end Grado headphones, this set features a vented diaphragm and a non-resonant air chamber. Both assist in the creating of a realistic soundstage with excellent sound separation. The retro style headphones look great and offer superb sound from the open-ear design. A full range of frequencies ranging from 20-20,000 Hz ensure you don't miss anything from your music. The improved driver and the plastic housing move the air in a manner that creates less transient distortion. For clean, clear music, the Grado SR60i is the affordable and obvious choice.
Headphone type refers to the construction of the headphones.
Around the Ear means that the headphones wrap around the ear to provide a secure fit. This is most often seen in active and sports headphones.
Around the Neck means that the headphones wrap around the neck. This is also seen in active and sports headphones.
Earbuds means that the right and left sides of the headphones are separated and will fit securely into the ear. These are small, compact, and user friendly.
Over the Head headphones mean that the right and left speakers are connected with a support that goes over the head and rests on top. This is the typical headphone type.
This is the design of the earpieces on the headphones. Some headphones go inside the ear, while others rest on the outside of the ear. This helps you know exactly what type of headphones you will be receiving.
In-Ear: The ear buds go into the ear. Most often, the right and left ear buds are two separate pieces.
Enclosed-Ear: Usually are found on the larger headphones. They rest on top of the ear and have padding for comfort, as well as enclosing the ear to the speaker. This type of headphone helps to filter out surrounding noise.
On-Ear: This type of headphone involves the speaker sitting gently on the ear without going in the ear or sealing it off.
Corded means that the headphones use a cord to transfer the audio signal.
Wireless means that the audio signal is transmitted wirelessly to the headphones.
1/4" Stereo jack is a larger audio jack that select electronics have.

I bought these headphones about 6 months ago.
I had owned a pair of USB headphones before these and when they reached the end of their use i knew i wanted to upgrade and pay the money for higher quality sound.
I read countless reviews online and everything seemed to point back to Grado who really seem to set the standard in each price-range.
I loved the SR60is and after about 5 months i decided to upgrade again to the SR225is because i was impressed with the 60s. They sound amazing.
Now some things i will point out, they are a bit warm but for the kind of music i like that's perfect. The open ear design does leak some sound so if you like blasting your music at full volume and destroying your ability to hear, other people around you will definitely be able to hear.
I would have liked for a metal encased tip to allow for an easier replacement for the tip, but as i was always very careful with them they never broke and i'm sure they would have lasted a decade.
I recommend these to everyone i see looking to buy headphones. I have had my friends who own $350 pairs of bose headphones drop their jaw in response to the quality of the sound. I've been able to talk several people out of buying skullcandy headphones.
That being said, i like my sr225is much better. ;)

After 6 months of using the Grado SR60i headphones, I am still amazed at the sound quality. Some have reported that they were not very comfortable; I guess this is subjective, and after a few hours most brands will 'heat' your ears anyways.
Looks is a matter of taste, and personally I love them. But if they were of another style I couldn't care less because for me the sound is of primary importance. And they certainly SHINE is this regard.
It's too early to know if they are durable, but with minimal care, I don't see any reason why they would not last.
Strongly recommended!

These are, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the finest headphones I have ever owned (disclaimer, I have never spent more than 100 USD on a pair). The treble is crisp, the bass has punch, the overall experience is like pouring milk and honey into your ears.
The only part of this headphone experience that can be fouled by personal preference is the leather head strap, and the overall cord design. Thankfully, I like both of these things, and have literally no complaints about this product.
If you spend 100 USD or less on a pair of headphones, and it isn't these, you made a mistake.

I'm a novice when it comes to high end quality headphones. This is my first pair of good "cans." Truthfully, I just wanted a good pair of headphones to play on my handheld Nintendo 3ds and Playstation VITA. I don't think either of those two systems were good testers of the Grado's sound quality, so I'll just review the comfort and style of the headphones.
Look, not bad. They feel sturdy. You can judge yourself from online photos. It doesn't collapse for travel, though the ears do turn inward, allowing for some travel and storage concession.
I don't find the foam ear coverings comfortable, which is my largest complaint. It's hard to forget you're wearing headphones, as you can always feel the foam against your ears.
Ease of use gets a 3, since I always have to uncoil the L and R "y" part of the cord before I place it on my ears.
Next time I'll go $100+ for headphones. No more foam ear coverings and better ease of use.

I tend to break headphones easily, so I like to buy inexpensive ones. These headphones have an excellent sound for the price. They have the typical drawbacks of on-ear headphones - no sound isolation and not as comfortable as over-ear (although really quite comfortable for the type). In about a month, the left earphone fell off the headset. This was easily fixed, but definitely downgrades the durability in my view.

Merchandising madness to milk major mass appealFox revamps Simpsons marketing strategyBy Paul Karon© Variety, April 23, 1998. Will Homer have his own fragrance? Might Marge's azure-coifed profile grace a line of hair care products? Could Itchy or Scratchy replace that little alligator as the new symbol of polo-shirt snootiness among the country club clique? These questions and more will be answered in the coming months as Fox's revamped marketing strategy for products based on "The Simpsons" leads to a new generation of merchandise and brand partnerships. Those who've been drawn into the special lunacy of the world's favorite animated family know the show's genius for humor and satire isn't confined to a single slice of the demographic pie. Now, 200 episodes and 10 seasons into what has become one of television's most enduring hits, Fox's licensing and merchandising team is taking "The Simpsons" to the next level with a strategy designed to push the brand deeper into mainstream retailing than it's ever gone before. The ultimate goal: to grab a larger share of the estimated $12 billion world-wide entertainment property licensing business. "We're taking a long-term, lifestyle approach to 'The Simpsons' to provide new licensees and to re-energize existing licensees," says Rosanna McCollough, vice president of marketing for Fox's licensing and merchandis-ing division. "We want to help licensees create compelling new products with the highest quality art attached to them — it's not just about putting as much out there as possible." In fact, Fox believes the potential for "Simpsons"-related games, clothes, tchotchkes, housewares and so forth is so great that the network's made "Simpsons" products the Licensing and Merchandising group's primary initiative this year. It's also not restricted to the United States. "The Simpsons" is hugely popular in Australia, the U.K., France and other European countries. General categories of "Simpsons"-phernalia include apparel, clothing accessories, gifts or novelty items, stationery, housewares, sporting goods, food and published materials. New interactive games and electronic toys will also come out next year. Fox licensing officials would not divulge details of unreleased products, but they provided a few hints. Starting in the fourth quarter of this year, expect to see new additions in "Simpsons" clothing and accessories. The apparel line, for example, will integrate the show's characters in more complex, organic ways with T-shirts and other garments. And toy makers will likely use voice chips and other computer technology to provide fun, cutting-edge gadgets. Existing entertainment products, such as the musical album "Songs in the Key of Springfield," the Rhino Records release of Simpsons' songology, and CD-ROM interactive software, such as the "Simpsons Cartoon Studio" and "Simpsons Virtual Springfield," are already hot sellers. The more complex electronic toys and musical and interactive products probably won't start showing up until next year. "Our strategy is clearly not to make this a kid-focused property, but an adult property as well," says McCollough. "The goal is not to partner with too many people, but with the right people, and those who will take the time to retail the products well." The engine of the reinvigorated "Simpsons"-stuff effort is the creation of what's known in licensing circles as a comprehensive style guide — in this case, a sort of graphic artist's bible for all things Simpson. A year in the making, the nearly-completed 500-page reference book contains some 900 pieces of art that will stand as the official standard visual descriptions for 42 primary and secondary characters — including but not limited to the immediate family members — as well as other images from the show. "It's the crucial element to any licensing campaign," explains McCollough. The style guide ensures that eve-ryone's product looks exactly the same as everyone else's — a critical matter for Fox, which currently has al-most 200 licensed manufacturers around the world and expects to add more. The revamped merchandising initiative, however, actually predates the creation of the style guide. Starting two years ago Fox began partnering "The Simpsons" to high-profile companies around the world. The goal, says McCollough, was to raise awareness of the show and its characters in the worldwide pop culture consciousness. Organizations such as Kodak, Pepsi and Subway were involved, culminating in last year's "Simpsons" look-alike house giveaway promotion in Las Vegas with construction giant Kaufman Broad. According to Fox, the licensing division will start to place new controls and standards on the sorts of products they'll allow to carry the "Simpsons" identity: specifically, they'll focus on creating a full spectrum of merchandise to appeal to various demographic groups. And, since Fox doesn't have its own retail stores, they'll work with retailers to ensure variability and individuality — and diminish price-lowering competition — between different stores in the same geographic market. "We've built a licensing program to take us through the next millennium," says McCollough. "The show continues to entertain its audiences by maintaining a freshness in its writing, and the merchandise has to maintain freshness as well." |

Nature is the place to confront and soothe your mind and body from the inside walls. You seek to have fun and to survive from daily typical boring days; nature is the place where you can look around for the fulfillment of the purpose.

Through nature images you can have the feel of being in nature; you can have the feelings of beauty and grace seeing those beautiful images of nature. Images of Nature help you to live in nature in most absurd way but can be effective for leaving boredom, nothingness and gloomy condition of thy mind. Indeed, nature images are reliever of psychic and physical problems that a human being often encounters.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Mark Cavendish surged ahead of John Degenkolb in a thrilling sprint to win the first stage of the Tour of California on Sunday in the closest finish in the event's nine-year history.
Degenkolb pulled ahead of the most decorated stage winner in Tour de France ever in the final stretch before the "Manx Missile" burnished his legacy again. The two raced shoulder-to-shoulder until Cavendish threw the rim of his bicycle's tire just ahead as he crossed the line in a photo finish.
Cavendish completed the 120-mile stage in 4 hours, 47 minutes, 17 seconds for the Omega Pharma-Quick Step Cycling Team. Moreno Hofland was third.

What can you tell me about the M Pai Royalty in terms of functionality and reliability? What is the best phone similar to the Samsung Galaxy Note 2?
Hello Vincent;
God I am glad i bumped upon your page. Within the last 2 weeks I have seriously been considering buying a phone from China however, every time I made up my mind; I fell across a new website with different names of phones that look the same. Therefore I was really confused and I have been putting off buying because returning unwanted items back to China is costly and I doubt I will secure a refund.
Basically the phone that I initially wanted to get was a phone that was similar/identical to the Samsung Galaxy SIII and my budget is about US$250.00; however I then came across the Note and I think I will get a phone similar to the Note 2 instead.
I came across this phone: http://www.bigboxsave.com/note-ii-n7300-5-7-inch-hd-ips-1280-720-screen-android-4-1-mtk6577-dual-core-1g-ram-3g-gps-smartphone.html
and this one: http://www.fastcardtech.com/Galaxy-Note-2-Mega
As well as other modules…
what is confusing me is simply the fact that they all LOOK THE SAME!! Do you know what the difference is?
And aside from the 2 models I just showed you do you have any personal recommendation?? I need a new phone rather urgently!
Thanks Vince! Valence

Hi Vincent,
I recently discovered this site and I find it very interesting. I wanted to ask you a question: there are clones on the market Samsung S3 LTE (I9305) or Samsung Note 2 LTE (N7105).
As you know I try a device dual sim, quad core (if possible), RAM 1 or 2 Gb and LTE protocol. I look forward to a welcome your response and thank you in advance! See you soon!

one more thing i live in india ( delhi) and i buy this phone from thailand.
Hello Vincent,
i am Lodovico and write from Italy.
Thank you for your website, i think it is very useful because
its difficult for me to understand if some chinese smartphones that can be found searching on the web are actual devices or fake devices
There are many websites that sell various smartphones models and brands,
and it is not easy to understand if the brand is a known brand or its an unknown low quality brand.
Collecting the various brand and models in your website, the user can be more confident on the existence and reliability of the brand and of the specific smartphone model.
So thank you again for your work.
I see you give many useful informations about the smarphones, so the user can choose the one that fits best with his needs.
The user can choose the smarphone basing on the many informations you provide.
If i can give you a suggestion, i would add some information about actual display and camera quality,
because the user can select the highest resolutions but, as you know, this information is not enough to tell the actual quality of the display and of the camera:
Having two devices with same display and camera resolution, there are other parameters , like brightness, contrast, sharpness, camera sensor sensitivity that can make the difference .
And this information are many times not provided by the seller: only purchasing the device and testing it, the user can get this information… so the user should buy the device before choosing the device to buy
Perhaps, the user can search for informations on forums or online videos, but its very hard to find reliable information to compare display/camera quality of two devices.
For example,
now i would like to buy a good quality smartphone – phablet, with very big screen (from 5.7 inch minimum to 7 inch maximum), and quad core.
I see there are many of such devices (but perhaps very few over 6 inch), for example
Star n9589
Cubot a6589
HDC galaxy note 2 n9589
I can choose the most powerful because there are online videos testing the antutu benchmarks,
but i cant choose the better display/camera quality because
they have about the same camera/ display resolution, but perhaps some of them are better than the other
in contrast, sharpness, touch screen responsiveness, camera sensor sensityvity etc…
so some information about this parameters could be very useful
For example, i would like to buy the Star n9589, can you tell me if it has good display / camera quality, compared to the others?
Thank you!
i have buy goophone i5s in india
i am interested in buying H9500 Galaxy S4 please kindly give me your best price,
Please tell me if you have this item in stock, is it suitable for video call as well?

Hi Vicent!!
I have a MIZ Z5 and i would like to know if this phone could be ROOT and how to do it.

Thanks for all.
Hi Vincent,
You have a great website.
I am looking for a 4.7 – 5.3 phone with MTK 6589 chipset with good GPS quality for navigation in the car. Can you recommend some Phones? I am looking at the moment at Feiteng H7189 or Tronsmart TS4. Are they good phones? Is HDC a better brand? How is GPS with these phones?
I hope you can advice me.
Thank you very much for your advice and help.
Hi Vincent,
Thank you for your reply.
I now find the Zopo Zp810. Is this same as HDC Galaxy Note 2 H7500 Plus?
Or different hardware? I have read that the ZP810 have good gps.
Thank you for your time and answers.
I would pass suggestion: in the article on HDC S4 Exynos, in the specs, there are a note about the "hspa @ 4,2 Mbps", may be its 42 Mbps?
What's the max extensione for SD?
Battery is 2800 mAh or 2600 mAH or 2500 mAh?

Hi, I have an S4 with same specifications as given by Andy above. However,
1. the camera does not seem to click 13MP images. How do i confirm if it is really 13 MP?
2. Camera modes like those of real S4 are not there.. Mode button does not work. When i press it nothing happens. can you tell me what could be the problem? and how can i get it fixed?
thank you.
i am quite sure it is not the Spark, its model no. is GT-I9500.

Hi Vince,
Can you please help me. I live in the U.S.A. and need a dual sim android phone with a 4.5 or 5.0 screen
The problem I'm having is that I can't find a chinese dual sim phone that
covers wcdma/hdspa 850 and 1900 bands so that I can get 3G coverage here.
They all seem to be 850 and 2100 but i need 850/1900 to work here.
Do you know of any phones that meet my needs?
Thank you,
Hi Vincent,
I have the same name like you sorry :(.
I live in France, so i have 3g 900mhz in my home only . So i decided to buy the white inew i6000 2g/32g which i thought was 900mhz compatible, but it's really only 850/2100 compatible I can only connect in 2G (edge) with very low speed .
How can i update my phone to be compatible with 3g 900mhz ? New rom ? New modem ?
Please Vincent, help me …
Vincent V.
Thank you very much for your reviews!
I wondered if you have tried out the "Timmy T1″? Its a 6.44 inch phablet with 2GB Ram/32gb Rom, 1.5 gHz, FHD and so on.
My question is; will these unknown brand-name phones ever get updates to latest version of Android? I'd really like a phablet from 6-6.5 inches. Best buy nowadays?
Have a nice week!
Love from Norway!

even close to full. What is the problem and can I do something to solve
the problem?

Hola vincent veo que hace tiempo no respondes necesito saber si tu puedes conseguir la rom stock para M-HORSE N9000 speadtrum 6820 256 de ram 256 de interna muchas gracias saludos desde Argentina
hello vincent,
i must say it is some awesome work you have done on this site amazing stuff,
may i ask though as quite a few people have trouble when flashing MTK rom's to their devices that the rom never shows the LCD driver and people always seem to get a common problem…the rom works but the screen shows nothing or just lines so obviously the lcd driver is not compatible
so would it be possible for you to add this piece of information onto your rom downloads section so that if i send people here to get a rom for their device they can be certain of getting the correct LCD driver as well
thank you for all your hard work so far
thank you vincent for your reply,
i will continue to send people here to download roms from your site as your collection is very good and well presented
i do understand what you say about legitimate companies and their updates and firmware
i myself own an oppo find 7u,(unified) QHD on nameless rom 4.4.4
and would never buy a clone myself but their are many people who seem to want these types of devices as the prices are just too good to be true,unfortunately many sellers seem to want to spoof their devices roms or just plain fake the hardware altogether so many problems will arise
thank you again for your promt reply

I bought Lenovo S960t and I have problems with GPS (MTK Chip) . Folowing your advise to others I assume that I need to Root the phone. Can you send me a link and instruction how to do it , please
I bought a clone S5 on a page and I can not start the phone. I've tried 3 button mode and the phone does not respond… Not even lights up. I've watched with Flashtools problem and it gives me an error:
Can u help me?.
I have bought the phone in this web page: http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6169667300.html
MTK 6582 QuadCore 1.5 Ghz and 2Gib ram.
Thank you.
Vincent Hi,
Can you sent a link to root Lenovo s960 t
Hi Vincent, recently I found even better phone with all the features as the original(http://www.chinaecarts.com/samsung-galaxy-s5-octa-core-51inch-mt6595-android-44-32gb-lte-4g-p-7591.html and http://www.hopewholesale.com/samsung-galaxy-s5-octa-core-51inch-mt6595-android-44-64gb-lte-p-2227.html ), not more expensive as HDC Spark, but I did not find on your site any review. This is because the above phones claim untruthful specs? However, reading through some reviews on chinaecarts, there are claims of being an unreliable supplier. Could you therefore confirm the specs of the phones manufactured by China Electronics Corporation. I would appreciate comments on the suppliers, eventually suggestions of reliable ones.
Thanks, Laslo.

April 2, 2010, 8:00 AM
By Luke Dittrich
Network Osaka
Bolt is lying on his back on the concrete floor at the top of a set of crumbling aqua-painted bleachers, one arm on his chest, the other flopped out by his side, holding on to the leg of a nearby massage table, eyes closed, gasping. The bleachers overlook a raggedy track on the outskirts of the Kingston campus of the University of the West Indies. The grass of the track is a sun-faded, watercolor green, much paler than the green of the mountains that rise up just beyond it. The pounding of countless footfalls has worn the grass away entirely in places, leaving bald spots of red earth. Bolt has just run six 200-meter half-oval repeats on the track. It was his first serious workout in months, since his recent trip to Kenya was preceded by a lengthy media tour of New York City, where he found himself doing things like appearing on Jimmy Fallon and racing the staff members of ESPN.
"Hey, Usain."
Bolt opens his eyes, sees the Racers Track Club masseur standing over him. The masseur shakes his head, pats his own stomach while looking down at Bolt's.
"What?" Bolt says, grinning, pulling up his T-shirt, exposing a six-pack, though one that is perhaps a bit more insulated than those of many of the other runners here today. Before arriving at the track, Bolt had scarfed down a typical lunch: a sandwich of cheese patties and coco bread, eaten one-handed from a greasy brown paper bag, his other hand working the controls of the deejay deck in his living room. Bolt pulls his shirt back down. The shirt is, of course, another Puma. It features a stylized picture of Bolt striking his now famous "Lightning Bolt" pose, one arm stretched to the sky, the other pulled back as though drawing a bowstring. Under the picture, two words: "Who Faster?"
Bolt eventually sits up, pushes himself to his feet with an exaggerated groan, and strolls over to where some of the other runners are clustered together, talking about movies.
"Law Abiding Citizen," says a hurdler, and then offers a five-word review: "Yo. Moronic! That shit's bad."
"Funny?" Bolt asks.
"No, not funny. Not anything."
Bolt likes movies almost as much as he likes video games. He might even star in a movie himself soon. The producer of Pumping Iron, the old documentary about Arnold Schwarzenegger, has been talking with his manager and wants to shoot a feature-length documentary about Bolt. But he's got mixed feelings about it. He thinks the movie would probably be a dud: "It would be boring. I don't really do much. Training. Play video games. Play music. I'm always home."
The quietest and youngest runner of the group is an eighteen-year-old 100-meter specialist named Jason Young. Young, by one measure, is blessed: He came from Bolt's hometown, attended Bolt's high school, excelled there, attracting the attention of Bolt's manager, who decided to take Young under his wing. Bolt himself has been kind to Young, makes an effort, often invites him over to his place to hang out and play Xbox.
By another measure, though, Young, like every other up-and-coming 100-meter specialist in the world today, is cursed. Over the last several decades, up until last year, the world-record time in the 100 meters dropped in tiny steps, the world's top sprinters swapping it back and forth, shaving off a hundredth of a second every year or so. Two or three elite runners at a time always seemed to be within a toe of the mark, while a wider pool of runners brought up the rear, poised to take their place among the elite. Bolt, by replacing the incremental drop in the world record with an exponential one, by doing approximately thirty years of damage in a single year, has undermined the fondest aspirations of an entire generation. Who faster? Nobody. Here or anywhere. Not now, and probably not for a very long time.
Glen Mills, who has been Bolt's coach since 2005, is down on the field, watching another one of his runners skip sideways down a row of hurdles, the young man's legs kicking up and over each one like a chorus girl's. A digital stopwatch hangs from Mills's thick neck, dangling just above his potbelly. Mills has close-cut gray hair, narrow eyes, a perpetually sardonic expression. Were someone to have charted a graph depicting Bolt's story up to the point that Mills became his coach, it would have shown a steep parabolic trajectory, a rapid rise followed by a precipitous fall. Like many promising runners, Bolt had come out of nowhere, burned brightly for a few years setting a number of junior records then appeared to have burned out. In 2004, at seventeen years old, Bolt made the Jamaican national team and competed in that year's Olympic Games in Athens, but his performance there was poor: He never made it past the first round in his only event, the 200 meters. His progress stalled, then reversed.
"When I got him, he was injured," Mills says. "Also, his coordination and all those things were off. And his scoliosis was affecting his hamstring. So we had to do some work." Much of that work consisted of not working so hard. Mills cut down on Bolt's high-intensity workouts and put him instead on a training regimen that emphasized strength and flexibility, building up his core muscles to compensate for his problematic spine, honing Bolt's body and technique until he was ready to fully harness his gift. Although Bolt continued to compete, for the two years of 2006 and 2007, he didn't place first in any races. It wasn't until 2008 that Mills's training regimen came to fruition, and the world took notice of what had been taking root at this worn track on the grounds of an old Kingston sugar plantation.
Soon Mills noticed that some of his younger runners, realizing that they could never hope to match Bolt but not prepared to give up their world-conquering dreams, shifted their attention from the 100- and 200-meter distances to other events, to hurdles or longer distances in which they might still hope to make a mark. The 400, for example.
As it happens, a group of five 400-meter runners is rounding the oval right now, their last circuit of today's practice, and though it's not a real race, you can tell from across the field that they're trying hard, shoulders stiffening, cheeks bellowing, each wanting to win. Bolt and the others stand up and cup their hands to their mouths and start shouting encouragement. Bolt rarely races the 400, hates the long practices, the lung-searing, vomit-inducing arduousness of the extra training required to run that distance at an elite level. Still, he thinks that someday he might give the 400 a serious go. And the general consensus in the world track community is that if he were ever to dedicate himself to the 400, he could dominate it as thoroughly as he has the 100 and 200. And after that? Who knows. But he's kind of interested in the long jump, too. At this point, there's every reason to believe that Bolt is like Alexander in his prime, a young conqueror whose future conquests will not be determined by ability but simply by desire and discipline.
As the pack of 400-meter runners approaches the bleachers, the final bend, Bolt suddenly skips down the steps to the track. He's taken off his running shoes, is back in his usual pair of blue Puma flip-flops. When the runners come abreast of him, Bolt shoots a smile back at his friends in the bleachers, jumps out beside the straining, struggling runners, and sprints easily to the finish line in first place, arms raised in mock victory.

Tchaikovsky's five-movement Third Symphony is among his liveliest and most exultant works, brimming with courtly charm and concluding with a celebratory Polonaise. Panufnik's Concerto in modo antico continues the Polish theme, reviving tunes by Polish composers of the past in a quasi-Baroque work for trumpet and orchestra. Rounding out the concert is Stravinsky's popular Firebird Suite, with its seductive "Princesses' Round" and ferocious "Infernal Dance of Kaschei."
Tchaikovsky's purely orchestral pieces are favorites on the ballet stage. And no choreographer was more inspired by Tchaikovsky than George Balanchine, the Russian-born founder of the New York City Ballet, who drew on the Polish symphony for one of his signature works. Read more at Sounds & Stories.
Of Panufnik's Concerto in modo antico, in which he will solo, Principal Trumpet Christopher Martin admits: "It's not like any piece I've ever played before, I have to say. I'm happy to have learned it and happy the Maestro suggested it, because I truly think I could have gone my entire career and not even known that it existed." Read more at Sounds & Stories.
This year marks the centennial of Andrzej Panufnik, once hailed by Sir Georg Solti as "the finest protagonist in the European tradition of music-making." Though perhaps as not well known as his near contemporaries Karol Szymanowski, Krzysztof Penderecki or Witold Lutoslawski, Panufnik is no less significant. Read more at Sounds & Stories.
The performance of Concerto in modo antico is generously supported by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute as part of the Polska Music program.

Hi all.. We've got an older under mount sink that was installed more than 17 years ago and the glue/sealant that was used to attach it to the granite counter top has failed on the right edge. There don't appear to be any clips on the bottom of the sink to attach it to the granite. At this point, if you splash water on the top-right edge of the sink, it runs down into the cabinet.. Aside from removing (and destroying) the granite, what's the best way to reattach the sink to the granite? I can probably clean some of the crap off that was originally used to hold the sink and replace with something, but I'm not sure what. Luckily the sink can't drop as its still got the plywood to catch it -- the gap in place now is probably a 1/16" or two.. Any ideas? Is this a common problem?
Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Our granite installer used Bondo a week and a half ago. I've also heard they use it to attach the granite to the counters. Easy to get and work with. |

Osxaddict: Sounds to me (if I am understanding you right) that your sink is sandwiched in between the underside of the stone and the plywood subtop.. I'm going to presume that's the case, and IF it is... this sounds like a simple case of the seal between the sink and the stone has been compromised.... All that's really needed is that you'll need to scrape here's a few pics to illustrate what I am under the impression 5/8" plywood subtop, screwed down to cab has adhesive applied sink opening is cut ou in plywood subtop sink is set in place - set on a bead of caulk.. sink is now in final position note the space cut out in back to keep the plumber happy another bead of caulk (silicone) is applied to the top of sink flange.... sink & subtop are ready for Granite countertop to be set finished assembly prior to caulk being cleaned & tooled sink being set in place sink in final position scutcheon opening in back to keep plumber from "crabbin" IF this is how your sink was installed, it's really important The water will affect the plywood subtop (I'm presuming NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope the pics help kevin Kevin M. Padden MIA SFA |

Try Chemical Concepts by Braxton Bragg. They make a peel and stick fastener for a sink that was installed without clips. I'm using some myself. Call them and ask for the peel and stick ones. Donna |

Grunden.net is available for purchase. If you would like to acquire Grunden.net, you may submit your offer or any questions to .
Have you ever wondered how Internet moguls made themselves very popular? Or, how your next door neighbor had their name searched over the Internet so quickly? Well, the very first step to achieving all this fame and glory with today's fastest growing communication medium is through the use of the right domain name, such as Grunden.net. With the right domain your website could land on the first few pages of a search engine result with little help from search engine optimization.
But what is a domain name, such as Grunden.net, and why is it important? Like any other elements we see around us, internet stuff should also have their labels in order for people and machines to recognize them. For websites, they are identified by their domain names and thus we access online services through their domain names. Examples of widely used domain names are www.Google.com, www.Yahoo.com, and www.FaceBook.com just to name a few. Without a domain name, a site would definitely not on the Internet.
While millions of domains names are popping out from nowhere, only few individuals have recognized the power of using their own name, such as Grunden.net, as a domain name. Those who were able to register their names for a domain were very fortunate to have established their online presence. Through the use of their domain names, these people found great exposure and a lot of opportunities with their domains.
Using your name as domain names, like Grunden.net, can bring more than just a name for the site. It can be used as promotional materials for campaigns, resume, or even blogs. Do you know that three letter first names registered as domains are sold for thousands of dollars? Yes, that is absolutely true and big businesses are willing to plunge into the water to own a domain name that would bring significance to their business, with a name such as Grunden.net that is memorable.
Names like Vincent, Sandra, Timothy, James and Grunden, in .com and .net extensions are very successful domain names that have reached millions of computers worldwide. By simply typing these names on a web browser together with a top level domain, you'll be able to reach these sites instantly. Isn't it great if people recognize you through your domain even if they haven't seen you at all? Well, it sure is very interesting and rewarding.
Unfortunately, because of the surge of demand to register popular first and last names as domain names, most of them are no longer available. Common names are no longer available in .com and .net. However, if you are interested in the domain name Grunden.net, you are in luck, because we are currently offering the name available for sale.
If you would like to acquire Grunden.net, you may submit your offer or any questions to .

This is a thick, substantial mattress, and after more than a month of use we are very pleased with the quality. I ordered the xl twin for my son, and he sleeps on it every night and loves it. He says it is very comfortable. I have tried lying on it a few times just to test it out and it is firm, quiet, and not bouncy (in a good way!). Seems to be very comfortable. It came with a nice zip on cover, too. No complaints at all...and for the ease of delivery (to my door in a few days) and the fact I didn't have to set foot in a mattress store, you can't beat the price.
Mattress arrived in about a week. I followed the directions to open it without any problems. Left it out for 48 hours to expand before using it per directions. After the first night of use, I found it way too hard and put a mattress topper on it to make it more comfortable. It still feels very firm. Quality is OK for spare bedroom, and it's inexpensive but if I had to buy again, I would get the selectable comfort one.
This mattress seems stiffer than the last Memory Foam mattress I purchased for instance it does not leave the hand print on it as the photo depicts. This was a very good buy for the price!!
got this for use on an adjustable bed. was prepared for a long wait for it to expand to full size and for the odor to leave. however it expanded to full size in less than 1/2 hour and had no odor at all. it works well on the adjustable bed and is very nice to sleep on. i only gave 4 stars because of the price .
My 14 year old son loved our foam mattress, so when it came time to replace his twin with an XL twin, I was so happy to find a foam XL on Overstock. He has allergies and is sometimes bothered by dust, so I was looking for foam for both comfort and hypo-allergenic reaons. The chemcial smell actually dissipated within a day and wasn't even that strong to begin with. He loves his new mattress!
these are the 5 & 6 mattresses of this brand i have bought. i also own a brand name tempurpedic. these mattresses are every bit as high quality and comfortable at a small fraction of the cost. i especially like the anti-bug feature. if i ever need another mattress, i will be back to purchase this one. it is comfortable, thick, plush, and i couldn't smell any odor.
This mattress is wonderful! I'm a college student and my mom bought this mattress for me fo school. It is soooo comfortable and I sleep like a baby every night! I highly recommend this mattress for college students!! Especially because it is anti-bacteria/allergy/dust mite and bed bug resistant!!! The cost isn't bad either! Considering most memory foam mattress toppers are around 200 dollars anyways!!!
So far all OK.I hope it will continue.I just hope it stays level as it seems to lean a bit.
Inflated in minutes. We were able to use it the same evening we received it. It is't heavy. It is a little firmer then I expected but my boys are using them and there are no complaints.
