Desktop Photo Plaque Home Decor
Posted By Ginger On August 12, 2013 @ 7:00 am In Family | No Comments
Hi there! I'm Ginger, & I blog over at Ginger Snap Crafts [2]. I love blogging about all my latest crafts, recipes & DIY projects. I also have 5 wild & crazy kiddos that keep me busy. I'm always taking their pictures (or having their pictures made) all the time! I can't help it they are so cute! ha!
Anyways, not too long ago we had our family picture made by Kirsten Hallmark Photography [3] (a local photographer), and I love this candid "real us" shot she got during our photo session. For some reason I love the silly pictures the best! Kirsten gave me a disc with all our pictures on it so I could print the ones I wanted, and I have been using Shutterfly to turn them into some lovely home décor!
Even though this is called a desktop plaque [4], I thought it made the perfect addition to our family room mantel. It even has an easel on the back. So awesome!
I loved that I could add some personalization to our picture, too! Shutterfly has tons of different layouts as well. You can even make a collage of different pictures if you wanted to.
I know we are going to enjoy having this picture in our home! It makes me smile every time I see it! ha! These would make great gifts for ~ Mother's Day, Father's Day, birthdays, grandparent gifts or Christmas!

General Information
The transitional doctor of physical therapy program (tDPT) is a degree parity program designed for the working clinician. The tDPT program is a distance learning education program meant to advance knowledge in content area added in the entry-level DPT program but not addressed in bachelor's or master's degree curricula. The courses are designed for and delivered with the ability to interact with faculty and other learners through email, on-line discussions, and bulletin board postings. Focus is on gaining theoretical knowledge to advance one's practice and the profession, and on interaction with other professionals.
Consistent with the missions of the College and the Department of Physical Therapy, the mission of the transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy Program is to provide practicing physical therapists.

Lovesick Lady Needs Help Deciphering Whether Boyfriend Dumped Her Because Of The CFA Exam
By Bess LevinHere's what she wrote earlier this week to a relationship columnist with the Boston Globe:
Long time, first time. Back story is that I started dating my best friend of about five years this past September. He is the most kindhearted, gentle, and fun person I know. He has seen me go through my share of bad relationships and heartache. He's two years older than me and this is his first real relationship and longest relationship. We both started to like each other early last year but didn't act on it until the summer. We were scared to cross the line and he was studying for Part 2 of the CFA (crazy finance test!) all last winter/spring so I didn't want to distract him.
He was always the one pushing for us to start dating once it was on the table, and after spending time with him, I grew to love him. It's by far the best relationship I've been in and he treats me so well I could see myself spending the rest of my life with him (I'm 23. I've been around the block. I've known him for 5 years).
He is in the thick of studying for part 3 of the CFA right now and has been since January. The test is in early June. I have been incredibly understanding about his priority (passing this test!). When his job and the studying became extra stressful last month, he threw a curve ball at me and said that he felt like something was missing in our relationship but that he couldn't decipher if it was his external stresses or just us. We decided to work on it, but more recently the conversation came back up and he said he still feels something is missing. I'm deeply hurt by this and I really just hope it's the stress of the CFA that is sucking the life out of him, but I also don't think it's fair for me to sit around and wait until after the CFA for my "trial period" to be up.
We called it off last night and I'm just looking for some help on how I should be feeling about this situation and what to do after the CFA is over in June. Reevaluate? Move on? Is he just a commitment-phobe?

Back in August, the Daily News ran this photo of Billy Joel on a bike with an unnamed blonde woman, who the paper claimed was an employee of Morgan Stanley and Joel's new lady love. In October, a report claimed she was actually a Goldman Sachs "banker" (a tip possibly sourced to the GS c-suite, where they would just love to be able to say one of their own is tapping Joel). Today, the saga has finally been put to bed. The woman has gone public to say her name is Alexis, she works at Morgan Stanley and she's in love with Mr. B. Read more »
With the passing of the Dodd-Frank Bill, one pesky thing that banks have had to spent a couple hours getting in line with is the Volcker Rule, and what it means for their proprietary trading desks. Whether to spin them off, send the employees to a farm in the country where they can run around, move them to the basement or just rename the group the 'troprietary prading' unit, about which no one will be the wiser, the whole thing has been a bit of a headache. One person who hasn't lost any sleep over the mandate, however, is Vikram Pandit. Because unlike his counterparts at say, Goldman, who've clutched their pearls and felt faint at the thought of a world without prop, Vickles got behind the rule before it was even a twinkle in Volcker's eye.

Lady Hedge Fund Manager/CFA Charterholder Sara Grillo Mentors Young Women Looking To Succeed In Business, Love
By Bess LevinSara Grillo is a manager with hedge fund advisor Diamond Oak Capital Advisors and the topic of a recent Bloomberg article. What about Grillo intrigued editors enough to profile her? Without having spoken to anyone over there an educated guess would have to be her ability to overcome obstacles and in doing so, set examples for females trying to break into a male-dominated field. Obstacles such as:
1) Unemployment
Work in a bar. That was a friend's suggestion for Harvard graduate Sara Grillo after she was laid off from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in 2008. Two years later, the hedge-fund analyst is campaigning to get more women into top financial jobs. Grillo, 32, who co-manages hedge fund advisor Diamond Oak Capital Advisors LLC, found herself among 225,000 unemployed finance workers that year as the subprime market collapsed. "If I were a tall, broad shouldered, gray-haired, 50-year- old man with the same credentials, nobody would have suggested I take a job for less than one eighth of my salary," said Grillo in a telephone interview from her home in Queens, New York City.
2) The fail rate of the venerable CFA exams
Dismayed by friends' suggestions that she quit finance, Grillo vowed to help more women join the industry, setting a goal of raising the proportion of women Chartered Financial Analysts to 50 percent from the current 19 percent. "I'm a CFA charterholder and I always look women right in the face and tell them that if I did it, they can do it as well…I wanted those letters after my name so badly," she said. "If it took me 80 years, it was going to say, 'Sara Grillo, CFA' on my tombstone."
3) Cheapskate boyfriends who apparently deserve to be called out in publications read by millions of people. Read more »

LOL Cats and I Can Has Cheezburger caught lightning in a bottle and went viral. In case you haven't seen it, LOL Cats involves pictures of cats with added captions done in a language developed by the LOL Cats owner. Check out the video above to hear G4's history of the phenomenon.
The success of LOL Cats has launched a bunch of other similar spinoffs. Many have tried to replicate the ubiquity of LOL Cats, including me, but only a few have hit a home run. Upsidedown Dogs has a shot. These are outrageously funny pics of dogs laying on their backs, with their jowls hanging and teeth exposed. The site is a riot—a huge, time-sucking riot.

I just finished eating the first Papaya off one of my seed grown Papaya trees. It bloomed months ago in the middle of a Papaya Fruit fly infestation, so I bagged it in a white wax coated bakery bag.
It ripened on the tree, and this is the first tree ripened Papaya I ever had and I can say that it's a world of difference from the green supermarket fruit. This one was still a bit hard, but was sweet and juicy. Funny here, I bought a couple of papaya seedlings before this one was in the ground that also have fruit but this one bloomed and ripened where the others are still rock hard and green.
Follow-Up Postings:
I just bagged my last few Keitts with white plastic grocery store bags. Tied them tight. Then it rained hard and water was pooling in the bags so I poked a hole in the bottom So far it has confused and spooked the birds and squirrels...kept them from taking a bite. Old DVDs and CDs might work hung on a mango fruit. The flashing light reflections bother the birds and maybe? squirrels too? |

Celebrities Banned by Top Hotels
Sindeyev Vladimir / ITAR-TASS Photo / Corbis
Paris Hilton
The Incident: In 2010, just trying to check in at the Wynn got the hotel heiress both banned and facing criminal charges. As they were pulling up at the hotel, Hilton and her then boyfriend underwent a traffic stop that quickly escalated—culminating when Hilton reached for lip balm in her purse, and a bag of cocaine fell out instead. The Wynn and Encore resorts banned Hilton from staying and fired her boyfriend, who was, at that time, manager at two of the resort's nightclubs.
Still Unwelcome? Hilton pleaded guilty to drug possession and obstructing an officer, and served a year of probation, as well as paying a $2,000 fine and serving 200 hours of community service. By the end of 2011, the Wynn reportedly reinstated Hilton as a BFF, and she's been spotted partying at The Encore Hotel's Surrender nightclub ("Wynning," as TMZ.com put it).

Northwest energy whack-a-mole: Another pipeline rears its head
So this is how it felt when the oil started flowing on the Persian Gulf. This century's successor to the 20th century's great energy game is starting to unfold around us. On one side, the inland West is bursting with particularly filthy fossil fuels: Montana and Wyoming coal, North Dakota oil, the vast reserves (third-largest in the world) of Alberta's tar sands (or, as they say there, "oilsands"). On the other side, China and Asia's other new industrial powerhouses, thirsty for fuel and paying a hefty premium. And in between, the monkey in the middle, the rich, fragile inland seas of Washington and British Columbia, over which the stuff must travel to reach those premium markets.
Two projects have filled the headlines and drawn the protests: the campaign to run mile-long coal trains over the mountains, along Seattle's waterfront and up the slippery shores of Puget Sound for shipment to Asia. And the Canadian firm Enbridge's effort to build the Northern Gateway pipeline, which would pump tar-sand oil from Edmonton, across the northern-BC vastness, to Kitimat and, eventually, to fuel-thirsty Asia.
But under the cover of those two, a third transport project is taking shape, to little fanfare or alarm on this side of the border, that could affect Washington's waters more than the others. Kinder Morgan, another pipeline giant that, unlike Calgary-based Enbridge, is based in Houston, Texas, wants to "twin" the 60-year-old Trans Mountain Pipeline that it operates between Edmonton and Burnaby, British Columbia, just across narrow Burrard Inlet from Vancouver.
The new $4-billion "twin" line will in fact be a partly new route: Trans Mountain engineering chief Jim Davies says the company will have to open up new right of way for about a tenth of the 1,150-kilometer line, where development has crowded too close to the current line to allow more construction. The new twin would also be the buster of the litter: Last year Kinder Morgan announced it would double its Trans Mountain capacity from the current 300,000 barrels a day to 600,000, then eventually settled on 750,000. It recently announced that demand was so strong it will triple capacity, to 890,000 barrels a day.
That translates to a figure of more acute concern to residents of the San Juan Islands, Olympic Peninsula, and other shores en route: Kinder Morgan projects that this will raise the number of oil tankers sailing to and from Burnaby via the Georgia, Haro and Juan de Fuca straits from five a month to 25. Other tankers carry crude and refined oil products from the refineries at Washington's Cherry Point and Anacortes and Cherry Point, which receive crude from a spur off the Trans Mountain pipeline.
Most of what they'll carry won't be ordinary crude. It will be a more complex, less understood concoction commonly known by what sounds like a cartoon character's digital avatar: dilbit, short for "diluted bitumen." Bitumen is the sticky, biologically degraded petroleum that gets steamed and pumped, at considerable expenditure of water, energy and boreal forest, out of the vast sand basins north and west of Edmonton. It's too thick to pump whole, so it is diluted, about seven parts to three, with lighter oils. Or, more commonly now that natural gas is so cheap, with gas condensates. In a timely twist on the coals-to-Newcastle theme, Kinder Morgan will reverse the flow in a gas pipeline that now runs from Alberta to Texas to supply this diluting agent.
Just what impacts and risks this will entail is a subject of even more dispute than your usual high-stakes environmental debate. At times Trans Mountain's industry and government promoters (including the Harper administration) and its critics (environmental and watchdog groups, First Nations and local governments in British Columbia) seem to be talking about substances as different as olive oil and Portland cement.
Pipeline opponents argue that even diluted, bitumen is too troublesome, both inside the pipes and out, to risk transporting it. Their case turns not just on dilbit's density, but on its levels of sulfur, acidity, abrasive particles and friction-generated heat, all of which may speed corrosion in pipelines or tanker hulls.

Another important and informative story by Scigliano, but this paragraph seemed to get mangled in the editing process:
"Other tankers carry crude and refined oil products from the refineries at Washington's Cherry Point and Anacortes and Cherry Point, which are receive their crude from a spur off the Trans Mountain pipeline.)"
Yes it is true that Washington's 4 north Sound refineries are attached to the Alberta oil fields by pipeline. Several of them are also beginning to receive shale gas via rail. However, they typically refine the crude and export the refined product but receive far more crude via tanker than pipeline or rail. It's also important to know that now that tankers are double hulled they are no longer required to have 2 tug escorts.. The only reason they have escorts at all is due to a state law requiring a single tug on double hull tankers.
Posted Mon, Jan 28, 9:46 a.m.
This is the crux of the matter IMO:
"The pipeline and tanker issues are real, but to environmentalists they're also surrogates for a much bigger threat: Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and the outsized contribution that Canada's vast, dirty, inefficient oilsand resources can make to them. The outspoken NASA atmospheric scientist and climate campaigner James Hansen has famously predicted that if the tar sands get exploited, it's "game over" for arresting global warming."
As long as profit is the only consideration instead of the health and survival of life on this planet these kinds of things will continue to be pushed. Those of us who care about life need to push back.

"As long as those exports remain landlocked, Canada remains a captive supplier to the United States. That's what candidate Mitt Romney hinted at when he defined the "energy independence" he promised as relying on "North American" fuels...."
Today's WSJ: "Key to Oil: Location, Location, Location" (google in quotes if a non-subcriber) makes clear that the dynamics never hold still waiting for politics to catch up. Not sure if the following is true or not, but would explain the planned increased shipments to and from the Wa. refinery:
" Because refined products can be freely exported from the U.S., they command higher global prices relative to domestic crude oil, which can't." "Other winners are midcontinent refiners such as HollyFrontier HFC +1.52% . They can process cheaper, relatively local oil and then sell the refined products." {Sentence order reversed in original.)

"Like Russia seeking a warmwater port, the Canadian energy industry is looking in several directions."
If these folks are patient, in due time they can have a warm water port wherever they want. Also, since seas are just beginning an ice melt induced rise that could increase tidal levels 25 feet or so, waiting a few years might allow shorelines to stabilize at their new boundaries. This could avoid the additional costs of having to periodically re-engineer port facilities.
Also, simply providing a conduit between the producer (Canada) and the consumer (China) is often a poor bargain. Whether its a pipeline or oil tankers, the conduit is paid little for its services but takes on the full risk of a catastrophic environmental accident. If indeed the US is fated to become a Third World resource-dependent economy, it still might want to consider being selective about its partnerships.
Posted Mon, Jan 28, 6:36 p.m.
Imagining that SLR (sea level rise) is going to stop after some amount of ice melt allowing us to rebuild the same mess of industrial infrastructure up slope is a fantasy. Assuming GHG emissions at current rates, projections are for Greenland and WAIS (West Antarctica) to go first, but it takes a while. Decades. Centuries. And then, if we've really screwed up the system, EAIS goes as well, taking even longer.
If Earth gets so warm as to eliminate all or even most of the GIS and EAIS, we are really and truly unlikely to have much of a civilization anywhere on the planet. Because aside from SLR, the ocean could be pretty dead from acidification and we'll be lucky to be able to breath without phytoplankton producing half the global oxygen.
There's much reporting on the science underlying these delightful prospects if you look. Here's one recent article on the ice melt piece: http://www.realclimate.org/index.php?p=14300
Posted Mon, Jan 28, 6:20 p.m.
There are several choices. The first is shut down all the seaports on Puget Sound in Washington State. This would be my choice. Just plain outlaw all shipping in our fragile waters. Who cares about imports or exports? Especially if they destroy our environment.
All the other choices are bad, terrible even. It's not like the jobs these options provide are long lasting. As soon as the gas, oil, and coal run out those jobs disappear and we are left with the mess. Not much of a bargain.

The United States should prohibit export of raw hydrocarbon, or refined hydrocarbon products.
I guess Canada could use its own ports to export, and that is what Canada needs to be made to do.
That means no export of anything from the Keystone xl pipeline.
There should be no lightering of hydrocarbons for export at Port Angeles, or anywhere else in the United States.
If corporations are going to use the BC ports, we need to know who every individual in the control groups of the corporations are. We cannot stop Canada from allowing the export from BC; but we can know who to go after individually if a disaster ever occurred. I do not mean fine the corporation; I mean go after each control group member individually, and make every day of the rest of their lives a living hell.
Also, Where is Washington State Government on this. We have a new Governor, who will not speak about the China Coal Ports, and there seems to be nothing happening with state government about the issue in this article. State Government needs to start protecting Washington State from Multi-national, and foreign corporations.

SOLAR panels and solar collectors
installation angle.
Sun incident angle and position effect
The direct sun power incident on a solar
panel depends not only on the power contained in the sunlight, but also on the angle between the
solar panel and the sun. When the absorbing surface and the sunlight are perpendicular to each other, the power density on the surface is equal to that of the sunlight (in other words, the power density will always be at its maximum when the
solar panel is perpendicular to the sun).
as the angle between the sun and a fixed surface is continually changing, the power density on a fixed
solar panel is less than that of the incident sunlight.
The amount of solar radiation incident on a tilted module surface is the component of the incident solar radiation which is perpendicular to the module surface. The following figure shows how to calculate the radiation incident on a titled surface (Smodule) given either the solar radiation measured on horizontal surface (Shoriz) or the solar radiation measured perpendicular to the sun (Sincident).
The tilt angle has a major impact on the solar radiation incident on a surface. For a fixed tilt angle, the maximum power over the course of a year is obtained when the tilt angle is equal to the latitude of the location. However, steeper tilt angles are optimized for large winter loads, while lower title angles use a greater fraction of light in the summer. The simulation below calculates the maximum number of solar insolation as a function of latitude and module angle.
As can be seen from the above animation, for a module tilt of 0°, the Module Power and Power on Horizontal are equal since the module is lying flat on the ground. At a module tilt of 80°, the module is almost vertical. The Module Power is less than the Incident Power except when the module is perpendicular to the sun's rays and the values are equal. The module is orientated to the equator so it faces north in the Southern Hemisphere and south in the Northern Hemisphere. As module moves from the Northern to Southern Hemisphere (latitude = 0°), the module is turned to face in the opposite direction and so the Module Power curve flips. When the light is incident from the rear of the module the Module Power drops to zero . Try setting the latitude to your location and then varying the module tilt to see the effect on the amount of power received throughout the year.


text: Imagine if you could win a substantial college scholarship—by making a video and throwing some great football passes. That's exactly what happened to Jacob Desatoff, of Costa Mesa, California. Desatoff, a 22-year-old transfer student who will be enrolling in Fort Lewis College's Adventure Education program this fall, won second place in the Dr Pepper Tuition Giveaway and was awarded a $23,000 tuition scholarship. Desatoff entered the competition with a self-made one-minute video, titled "I'm a future educator," that was chosen as a top-ten finalist. In his video, he talks about his passion for helping others and his strong belief in the power of the outdoors. "The goal for my career is to impact others in an intentional way, that they may learn to willfully and positively influence the world around them," says Desatoff. He mentions that his road to higher education has been a rocky one, with the tragic death of his mother in 2010 and his father's unemployment. Financial limitations prevented him from pursuing his ultimate educational goals -- until the possibility of this scholarship arose. Viewers voted on their five favorite of the chosen videos and the finalists were sent to the PAC-12 Championship Game (UCLA vs. Stanford) on November 30. At the game, the finalists took turns throwing a football into a giant Dr Pepper can. Desatoff's impressive finish secured him the award he sought. Desatoff, who also received an Academic Achievement Scholarship from FLC, recently attended a Skyhawk Saturday event and is "beyond excited" to begin his education in Durango. Watch his winning video above.

Quite slow to process the order - 2 days. Purchased early afternoon and paid by credit card (no additional fee - great!), however, it took until overnight to accept payment and another day to process the order (even though the item was in stock).
You can pay for faster processing, but what will this reduce to - 24 hours rather than 48? Ordered Monday. Now Wednesday. Paid for courier delivery, so I hope to see it tomorrow at the very latest.
I chose Computer Lounge based on their "reasonable" postage prices, however, I don't think I'll be shopping here again - too slow to deliver! -
I don't like their choice of courier but otherwise customer support is top notch. Never had a problem and have been using their services for years. Keep it up!
is gud
Use CL for every purchase I can, their price is unmatched and the free shippment is a bouns. What you really get is the outstanding service when a hickup does occur. AAA
Even my worst experiences with CL exceed my best experiences with pretty much any other store. Top notch service, again and again and again.
10k + spent here over the last 4 years, these guys always go above and beyond for their customers. Top tier store - There's a reason they win pricespy store of the year again and again....
Always great.
Great (and fast) service.
No problems to get some advise from them about components, etc.
Always friendly and helpful.
My 'Go To' store now.
Thanks guys. -
excellent service
While prices are not the lowest, the customer service, especially in-store, is excellent.
These guys are usually one of my main places i buy electronic goods from. They have a good range of products but not the best. Prices are clearly shown and shipping is inclusive, however they don't always have the cheapest price. They process orders quickly and shipping is fast, and you are keep up to date. I would recommend these guys
Bought a Sennheiser headset and logitech G402 mouse from them. Very happy with the products and the shipping only took 1 day.
Purchased an Xbox 360 controller from Computer Lounge was posted out very quickly great service
Bought alot of hardware from CL over the years and even though there are more choices popping up out there, CL has been on top of their game more than any other I've used.
Very informative with order status updates, reasonably priced, a variety of components stocking mostly higher end manufacturers, and friendly helpful forums and always go the extra mile to fulfill customer requests.
Fastest processing I've known of for a PC parts dealer... which brings me to people complaining about the process, it's not the fault of CL why your order takes 24/48hrs to process, it's your bank... your bank does the usual security process before any money transaction is authorised, that's why there's 'pending' status on your order, waiting for your money to clear.
Best customer service I've experienced in the business hands down. -
I bought a GPU and it arrived two days later (a day if you take into account the time for the transfer to clear), this was with their free shipping as well (castle parcels) which have been the best that I have experienced with so far.
Even though they don't always show up as the cheapest for the item they make up for it with free shipping and the huge number of deals that they regularly have.
If price is keeping you away, then be a little patient and it'll go on special soon, chances are it will arrive sooner than courier post or the numerous other couriers. -
Bought quite a lot of components through these guys. Overall a good experience, customer service is great.
I've been called by Computerlounge to explain the entire process and what has gone wrong and what can be improved. Some errors have been made and of course that is human. Because of the good reputation here, I'll believe it was a mistake. Rating changed.
After reading a lot of reviews of SSD, I ordered a Crucial M500 240GB, because that one has the best reviews in that price range. I ordered on Friday evening. As this was the first time I ordered there using a credit card, I had to submit proof of this. The code I had to submit, was not on my statements, so I submitted a printscreen of internet banking. That was not enough, I had to wait until Tuesday before I could call my bank to retrieve this code. The other option, call my employer, was neither an option during the weekend.
Other shops do this different by deducting a small amount (e.g. 6 cent) and that is easier.
The delivery did not go well either, this was not the fault of Computerlounge. The courier probably went to the wrong house, because at the time of failed delivery, we were at home. So, we had to pick it up from the depot the next day. A week after ordering, I had my package. However, a wrong SSD was included! Instead of the Crucial M500, a vague Chinese SSD was sent (Mushkin) with a lot of bad reviews. Even the invoice was stating this one, so someone deliberately changed this.
I could not contact Computerlounge before Monday. I called them about this and without apologies or reason why this happened, they immediately sent a new one.
And again, troubles with the delivery, after complaining and dropping by at the depot AGAIN (12km single trip!).
On Wednesday, 12 days after ordering, I had the correct SSD. -
Great service really fast, keeps you updated, item well packaged.
Awesome service, always updating me with info. Certain earphones I ordered had no stock, and more was coming in on Monday, and CL was really good with recommending another option. Fast shipping and great service.
10/10, would buy again. -
Good price matching... scored a great deal on some AKG cans through computerlounge. Previously I purchased a logitech keyboard as well... good fast service
Made my first on-line purchase one week ago, and the second this week. The price of the goods, freight charges, packaging, and speed of delivery have been outstanding. I consider Computer Lounge to be the best on-line shopping store bar none!
I've been buying computer parts all my life, and all over the world. Theerfore I can safely assess CL as one of the tidiest online stores in the world when it comes to website navigation and ease of use. Free shipping approach makes things so much easier, and they have good selection, though I wish they were able to source more high-end products on demand.
I give them 9 out of 10, because I feel there is still room for improvement, like price matching certain overseas store that ship to New Zealand, and paying for return shipping costs on faulty/broken items that need RMA. They should also expand to offer 4K LED Televisions, as those will become the major gaming monitor solution in the next few years. -
Amazing customer service, with free shipping and very helpful staff. All the products they sell are good quality even if there are less options than other stores. Would highly recommend.
I have been pleased with Computer Lounge in the past. Shipping has always been fast with very secure packing. However, my last experience with them was less than satisfactory. The "secure packing" I have come to expect from CL was non-existent with my last order. After describing the poor packing job to their Dispatch Department, they agreed with me and assured me that steps would be taken to avoid this happening in the future. While the free shipping met their delivery target of 2-3 working days for the North Island, it was a bit slower this time. As always, Billy in their Sales Department is excellent and always ready to help. I will shop at Computer Lounge again, but I just thought it necessary to share my last experience with other PriceSpy members.
Excellent range and service!
Have dealt with Computer Lounge multiple times before, and in-turn have recommended them to friends. The resulting conclusion has always been the same for anyone who I have recommended them to. Excellent experience!
Computer Lounge is among those elite few stores on Price Spy that truly care about your current and future transactions with them. Every time I have dealt with them, the product has been shipped, packaged and provided in a way that reflects the excellent Price Spy reviews.
Recently I dealt with an RMA issue for a friend who I recommended Computer Lounge to. From previous experiences with other stores which will remain unnamed I was apprehensive about the RMA process. To my delight, everything went smoothly and I received a new product within the week which functioned properly. Through the whole process they were professional, prompt and communicated exactly what I could expect during the process. Superb!
Value is derived from not just in how much the product costs, but the after sales support, professionalism and the manner in which the companies representatives deal with customers. Computer Lounge ticks all those boxes.
So, if you are looking for a new component on Price Spy, and you notice Computer Lounge is providing it, even if they are not the cheapest, remember, that you get what you pay for. In the case of Computer Lounge, it is the complete start to end package and after sales support that justifies your purchase. Keep it up Computer Lounge.
Full rating, highly recommended! -
This was only my second order from Computer Lounge (the first was several years ago) and the service was every bit as good as I remembered it.
Very prompt with communication, they notified me well when an item wasn't in stock, and obtained it very promptly.
The parcel turned up as promised, very well packaged and just as I'd ordered.
Thanks for another great experience! -
I've made many small orders through computer lounge over the past few years. I've never had a single issue, delivery is always prompt.
Excellent prices with a great price match service combined with a great customer rewards program make Computer Lounge my choice when shopping for PC parts and accessories.
I have had no issues from them at all.
The overnight shipping is great too.
Great services and great prices and a well designed and up-to-date site make shopping at Computer Lounge an enjoyable experience.
Thanks team -
I bought ASUS RAMPAGE IV Black edition, it was very quick after payment was confirmed. They also refunded me some of the money back in a very nice manner after a voucher supposely not working during the transaction of the order.
Awesome place to get your PC! -
What a fantastic store. Their showroom is very well presented and their prices are great. I called up for a price match and they matched it no problem. Thanks for the LCD :)
2014-01-26 - One year ago. User reviews before this time are not included in the rating.
Great store, large stock, can be slightly higher prices (on some items) but know you will get great service
I have bought several items from Computer Lounge. Each time I have been delighted with the service. At one point the device was faulty, they replaced it without hassle
Picked up my entire build from their stores. Good customer service and they had a fair idea of what was being put into the system (choice of GPU to allow for X-fire).
Their pricing is on the higher side compared to rival stores but they are happy to do a price match which is a real treat.
Haven't tried their shipping yet, but most people seem to have had a good experience with them.
I do suggest you call them up as opposed to email as replies are quite sluggish.
Overall, a top notch place to get your gear! -
Brilliant customer service, good products at competitive price. They are always my first choice when shopping for computer parts and systems.
Great store, amazing customer service, willing to help, cheap products. All in all, great store!
Bought two items from Computer Lounge on seperate occaisions and service was always top notch. Online ordering was easy and their instore staff were helpful.
10/10 -
I've bought a few things from Computer Lounge and it is an absolutely top shop. My most recent experience was of a premium Netgear router (DGND4000). After two weeks of fiddling it was clear to me that the wireless on the router was faulty. I let Computer Lounge know and they agreed immediately that it sounded faulty and offered RMA. I posted it from Hamilton at about 3pm Saturday and I'm sitting here with a brand new, sealed replacement on Wednesday evening. It is this sort of after sales support that creates really loyal customers. Well done Computer Lounge!
Awesome store. They've got solid security for online purchases, their free shipping arrives fairly quick and is well packed and protected. I'll be coming back to them next time I buy some pc hardware
Excellent service at all times, Top friendly advice when asked and store presentation is excellent
I now understand why Computer Lounge is consistently rated so highly. I recently purchased a power supply from another online store only to be told after payment had cleared they were out of stock. Getting short of time I placed an order with Computer Lounge. I let Computer Lounge know my situation and the next day after the order was placed I received my power supply! Less than 24 hours after I had placed my order I received my power supply. It's this kind of service which deserves a solid 10/10.
I've always had excellent experiences with Computer Lounge. Best prices, quick & free shipping, amazing sale items, responsive staff and consistently the cheapest around. What more could you ask for!
Always in stock. Free shipping. Price match. Can't beat this store!
Awesome reliable service, a pleasure to deal with
I recently ordered a mid-size computer case from Computer Lounge. The delivery was lightning fast and the case arrived in perfect condition. Their Sales Department is more than willing to answer questions and to offer tech help before making a purchase. Communication before and after the sale is superb. I would highly recommend Computer Lounge if you are looking for "top Quality" computer parts and desire a trouble-free transaction.
Product arrived within 2 business days as advertised and well packaged. Customer service was excellent (for example they phoned me up promptly to clarify the delivery address I'd given). Only downside was that the courier left my software in the letterbox, instead of a calling card, when the package required a signature.
These guys are good and deserve their ratings, they are professional, they deliver on time and provide excellent technical advice. Quality service!
Straight-forward and very fast communication and delivery. Always so so so reliable!
I've been using Computer Lounge since 2008, and placed 30-odd orders with them so far. I also have some RMA experience with them. They've always maintained a consistently high standard of service and after sales support, with fast and reliable communication. Orders are processed swiftly and arrive exceptionally well packaged. Their website is well appointed and a pleasure to use, although on occasion I've found the stock level indicator to be somewhat less than accurate. The staff are professional and very reasonable to deal with. Their pricing is not always the lowest, but competitive nonetheless and they often pricematch. The free shipping should also be taken into consideration. Highly recommended.
Best price, excellent & fast communication, free & fast shipping, & well packaged. What more can you ask for? Thank you. Will definitely be buying from you again.
Great service, I ordered 10 items from two stores on Sunday both arrived Wednesday morning. Computer lounge was one...very impressed, paid by bank deposit so money didn't clear till Monday evening.
They had it packaged and sent in a day.
Note: I only order what they have marked as in stock!

Those people are dumb. I hate that.
Sometimes vmk players get spoiled and figure if they lose a game or the game is not "fair" in their opinion they run crying to staff. It's sometimes new players and stuff but ranch obviously can't get into trouble his game is creative and fair but there will always be people out there who complain when they don't get their way.

Leith Clark And Warby Parker's New Collaboration Is A Lesson In '60s Chic
We've been crazy-huge fans of revolutionary eyewear giant Warby Parker since it first burst onto the fashion scene in 2010. In the three magic years since, we've watched as countless vision-impaired individuals (and a few fakers) have turned to the retailer for new spectacles that are as on-trend as they are practical.
Warby Parker's latest innovation is a collection with Leith Clark, a lauded editor and stylist from across the pond who's dedicated to all things femme, colorful and vintage. With five styles from which to choose in silhouettes that are undeniably of girly, '60s influence, we invite you to get swept up in the eyewear collaboration of the year. Not to mention, a percentage from each sale goes to Girl Up (in addition to Warby Parker's Do Good movement), a United Nations Foundation campaign to raise awareness and funds among American girls for international, life-changing UN programs. As if you needed another reason to shop these specs.

Wild Horse Slaughters are really just land grabs by the Federal Government
Submitted by joeinmo on Sat, 03/02/2013 - 23:24The Federal Government under the Obama Administration continues to roundup wild mustangs on western lands. Actual numbers of mustangs left in the wild are down to a few thousand. Interestingly enough, these lands become unimportant when the wild mustangs are gone because nothing else really uses the habitat, but that's not how the land is getting grabbed.
The government basically confiscates the land afterwards and shuts down the ability to mine, drill etc. on in. it has to be "maintained" so horse heards don't get too big, but at multiple locations herds are already small enough that the remaining horses make it where you aren't allowed to do anything on the land anymore without endangering the existing horses. So in a nutshell, they are rounding them up to kill them to make the heards so small you can't use the land without endangering the remaining herds. Backdoor land grabs.
In addition, these wild mustangs, icons of the American west, are getting slaughtered and put into dog food and even put into meat has recently been discovered in Taco Bell.
The State of Oklahoma (the only state willing to) is waiting on the Governor to sign a bill to allow wild mustangs to be slaughtered in their state. The governor said they would poll the citizens first before any decision is made to sign the bill.
Please help stop federal land grabs and please help stop wild mustangs to be slaughtered.
Call the Oklahoma Governor at 1-918-581-2801 or 405-521-2342 and tell them no slaughtering of wild horses.

Live: Paul Simon And Wynton Marsalis Bridge The Gap At The Rose Theater
Paul Simon and Wynton Marsaliscourtesy Jazz at Lincoln Center
Rose Theater
Friday, April 20
Better than: Fighting the jazz wars.
"My father was the family bassman," sang Paul Simon on a song from Simon and Garfunkel's last album, a line as true as confessional poetry. Like Paul McCartney and Elvis Costello, Simon grew up as the son of a bandleader (who led a big band for years under the name "Lee Simms"), and he would watch backstage at the Roseland Ballroom while his father prepared charts by Ellington and sequoias of swing, explaining to his son how he would rotate the keys of each song so that the listenerwhether musically literate or notwould feel refreshed. (Paul Simon explained this method to Dick Cavett when he was trying to come up with a bridge to "Still Crazy After All These Years.")

A fine New Jersey heirloom tomato that produces beautiful 8 oz. globes. Rutgers is good fresh or for canning. Strong flavor and heavy yields on sturdy vines. Determinate. (60-100 days)
Each packet contains approximately 25 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
Start seed indoors 4 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost of spring. Seeds are covered only slightly to allow light which sometimes assists germination. Keep the soil evenly moist. Seed trays are held in warm conditions until sprouts appear, which may take anywhere from 3 to 10 days, depending on temperature, moisture, etc.
Move seedlings immediately to bright light conditions, such as a south-facing window or under a grow light. After the last frost, transplant them into the garden and space 2 to 3 feet apart.

Dec 27, 2013 4:45 PM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES (AP) - A newspaper says California regulators have let hundreds of toxic waste polluters walk away from contaminated sites and dozens of waste facilities operate with expired permits.
The Los Angeles Times says the Department of Toxic Substances Control also has drastically reduced fines against polluting firms and reduced the number of cases it sends to prosecutors.
Even when it acts, the department is so slow that the Times says it still hasn't completed a contamination study involving a Richmond metal plating company - more than 20 years after a toxic release sent more than 100 people to the hospital.
Department Director Debbie Raphael declined to be interviewed for the Times story. But in a statement on the agency website, Raphael says the department is committed to fixing problems.

NASA Captures Gigantic Solar Tornado on Video
NASA always has an eye on the Sun and other parts of the solar system just in case something cool happens. Turns out that NASA caught a very cool phenomenon back in September of 2011. The space agency recorded a video of that appears to be a gigantic solar tornado using the Solar Dynamics Observatory.
The massive solar tornado was big enough to have swallowed 100 Earths. The tornado is actually known as a solar prominence and they have been seen on the sun for decades but this was the largest ever seen. Astronomers have calculated that the storm was an astounding 124,000 miles tall. Watch the spiraling movement of this impressive solar phenomenon in the video clip below:
Rather than being caused by winds like tornadoes on Earth, the solar prominence was caused by a spiral shaped magnetic structure that rises from the sun and is attached at both ends to the surface of the sun. The solar tornado starts with a huge injection of plasma that shoots up one of those structure's legs. The plasma is guided along the helical shape of the magnetic structure giving it a coherent rotation of material, in turn causing the massive solar tornado. One of the more interesting parts is that this solar tornado didn't produce any plasma eruptions, which generally happens.

I remember watching White on Dick Clark's "American Bandstand" touting the new "Barry White". After making a noticeable loss of weight, a slimmer and trimmer White performed the first single from the album: the title cut. And what a song it is: sultry strings, a pulsating bass line, and the wonders of White's vocal chords. With such a powerful release as the album's debut track, I had to have it. The strengths of the album lie in the orchestra and "the voice". There is a cover of the chestnut "Rum and Coca-Cola" and another highlight is the street-friendly "Ghetto Letto". Not considered with the finest of his complilations Sheet Music takes a back seat to no one and nobody. A must pick up, even for the title track alone the maestro at his finest, yet Sheet Music is never played, by any station, andy oldies/tribute station, any one for that matter. A pity indeed. The Big Fella is always in our heart and in our souls. Barrence Eugene Carter, September 12, 1944 - July 4, 2003 RIP Barry White - Sheet Music This is the Godfather of Soul people. Nobody write his own, music, composes, and writes the instrumental background like Barry White. This man does it all. This is why he has the success that hes has in the past, present and future, because Barry does NOT let no one to write his music. His music continue to carry forever and he is the man SHE'S EVERYTHING TO ME He is the yoda of songs; a wise man. His words are so sincere, so real.

Check it out, my tamarind has bloomed. This was a seedling grown from one of those boxed dried tamarind fruits. The ones with the sweet pulp. I doubt this seedling will produce sweet fruits but maybe I'll get lucky.
Follow-Up Postings:
My 3 yr old from seed just bloomed as well. Really cool flowers. Like tiny orchids. How old is your plant? I brought the seeds back from Thailand. |
- Posted by gcmastiffs z10 Florida (My Page) on Wed, Jun 20, 07 at 9:27
How beautiful! My Tamarind is also in bloom, but it blooms inside the canopy, nearer the trunk, not on the branch tips like yours. I love the flowers and foliage, and am hoping for pods this year. My tree is about 12' tall. The sweet Tamarind pods make a terrific, cooling drink. Just peel the pod and drop in a gallon of water. Refrigerate, and enjoy! Yummy! Lisa |
Yeah I was quite surprise by the blooms too Jay. They are very orchid looking. The plant is about 3-4 years old I think. What kind of fruits were they? Sweet/Sour? They sell those boxed up dried fruits in the stores and the seeds are viable. 12'ft Lisa! Nice. I've never tried that drink before. I will give it a try. Thanks for the recipe. I also like that the leaves are sour! |
Nice tree Maureen! I noticed it has multiple trunks, is this normal with tamarind? |
Eggo That's quite normal. |
I haven´t also seen a multitrunked tamarind ever!!!!!. That´s quite singular. Looks like a pomegranate. I remember many years ago my granny´s 12m tall tamarind fruit (tasteless fruit by the way) tree was torn down because a tropical hurricane and it never sent any suckers (it was laying on the ground and still growing, slower though); it was chopped until recently (12 years later) and not a single bud it grew from that low. |
Eggo Look closely at the pic you'll see the tamarind pods on the tree. My Tamarind has been producing very sweet tamarinds |
- Posted by gcmastiffs z10 Florida (My Page) on Fri, Jun 29, 07 at 7:12
At what age/size do Tamarinds begin to produce pods? Mine has flowered twice, but no pods. I've been forced to buy them(G). I looked on EDIS, but didn't find any mention of age of production. Lisa |
Lisa Most Tamarind trees start to produce pods at about 6 yrs |
thanks Maureen. Still a bit hard for me to see the pods though. =) My tree bloom at about 3-4 yrs. I think Jay is at 3yrs. It looks like a few my blooms may be holding a fruitlet now. |

Hello, everyone. I have a baby tamarind tree (6 months old, about a foot tall) and I'm horridly jealous that you all can plant your trees outside! So, this question I guess is mainly for Ohiojay, who I'm assuming has an indoor tree (is that true?). I wanted to know whether it likes tight roots or lots of room, and how much light it would like. I know you can approximate India better than I can, with your humidity, and I've been keeping it misted. Also, can anyone tell me when we might expect this little guy to branch? Its quite sturdy, but is intent on getting straight up. Any hints you all can pass on about indoor growing would be great. We started two of these trees, and they sprouted the same week our Indian friends' baby was born. When we were sure they'd live we gave our friends a tamarind (which grows in their home province) that's the same age as their baby. So, I want to be able to help them keep theirs alive indoors too. Thanks so much! |
Congrats on the seedlings. As you've noticed by now, the tamarind is a very beautiful plant. I brought just 3 seeds back from Thailand in the spring of 2004 and all three germinated. I gave one away and kept two. They were among the many other plants I had going in a spare bedroom with a large metal halide grow light. They did fine and grew well and up! I would prune now and again to keep them manageable. I later passed on a second tree keeping only one. It now has a trunk diameter of over two inches and bloomed this spring. During the winter months while in the house, they would drop a LOT of leaves making quite a mess in the room. This would be followed by new growth. But they were always droping leaves. Once outside in the spring, they filled back in. It was very hot in the room and also quite dry and this probably contributed to the leaf drop. On the flip side of things. The tree in the picture below is from the coworker who took my first seedling three years ago. He too would bring the plant in during the winter but did not have the grow lights. He also kept the plant in a smaller container and I imagine the plant is quite root-bound by now. I'm not sure if he went with my suggestion to root prune the plant so he could keep it in the smaller container. The plant is at most two feet in height but has a nice looking canopy. It is staying a nice size for someone needing to drag the plant in and out each year. I've tried to talk him into contacting a bonsai specialist and having the specialist work on his plant. If you do a Google search on "bonsai +tamarind", you'll see tons of sites come up with these trees as bonsai. They make beautiful specimens. There's some pics out there that will knock yer socks off! The pic below is one of my favorite pics of a tamarind bonsai. Looks like a mini forest. |
- Posted by lilgreenfrog 5a CO (My Page) on Wed, Oct 10, 07 at 14:36
Wow, Ohiojay, those pictures are great. Thank you so much for all the information; I will be reading up on root pruning, now. Also, I'm sure someone around here can talk to me about bonsai, if we decide to go that route. We were really not expecting to get sprouts, and now when anyone of an Indian persuasion comes over, they enjoy telling us how enormous the tree is capable of getting, and how many holes will need to be cut in the ceiling! So we'd been getting a little anxious about its eventual needs. Again, I'm very appreciative of your help. Best, Lara |
New to these forums.. Actually new to growing anything.. My mom planted a tamarind seedling we got from vacationing in the Philippines and I feel in love with it. Its about a foot tall.. soft wood tamarind. Since fall season gets pretty cold in the desert I take it inside every night by a cracked window. I recently re-potted it in a deeper pot because it was growing in a small plastic container, but with citrus gardening soil? I noticed this morning that it said not for potting? Will this kill my tamarind? It seems to be doing a lot better in its new home though. Also.. Do I need any root aide for it since I re-potted it? Hopefully I can get some pictures of it soon to show you all.. |

HI everyone! I am hoping someone can help me out..I have a 2 year old Tamarind- well actually 2 as I planted them together by accident- and the leaves on one have started to turn a bit yellow. I am worried this means something bad and I cannot find any info online. PLease help! Nicole |

my failed bonsai tamarind is now 5 years old, but no blooms. what could be the reason? |
- Posted by hmhausman FL 10B (email@example.com) on Wed, Nov 2, 11 at 15:59
Nicole: Not sure where you are growing, but my tamarind tends to lose its leaves, after yellowing, during the dry period leading up to our winter here in South Florida. I am not sure if it is a hydration issue, a temperature issue or both.....but it occurs every year around November or December. Harry |
Nicole...I agree with Harry. When I was growing mine in a container, if I got behind on the watering, leaves would quickly turn yellow and drop. Very unforgiving in this. So if you are growing in a container, keep the plant well watered. The roots will get very dense and it will be difficult for water to penetrate. Not sure on the blooming issue. Blooming at 3 yrs is not a given. The plant may need some stressing. |
- Posted by newbiegrdnr 8 (My Page) on Tue, Nov 8, 11 at 8:59
growing up close to a tamarind tree in india, i know that they shed lot of leaves during cold months. |
Eggo how did you grow your tamarind? I tried to grow some from the fruits you get in a box at the Asian grocery market but every time I plant the seeds it rotted on me. My soil was not wet jut moist and I put it in a sunny window. |

Merkel cell cancer is also known as neuroendocrine cancer of the skin, or trabecular cancer. Characterized by firm, shiny skin lumps, this rare cancer develops on or just beneath the skin and in the hair follicles. Merkel cell cancer most often is found on sun-exposed areas of skin, such as the neck and head. The cancer mostly affects white people over the age of 50. The cause of the cancer is unknown, but it is believed to be related to both sun exposure and suppression of the immune system.
Merkel cell cancer tumors usually are firm, shiny skin lumps that do not hurt. The lumps, or tumors, may be red, pink, or blue and tend to grow very quickly.
Early diagnosis and treatment of Merkel cell cancer is crucial in preventing the cancer from spreading. The diagnosis is made with a biopsy, a procedure in which tumor samples are removed (with a needle or scalpel, or during surgery) for examination under a microscope to determine if cancer cells are present. However, diagnosis of Merkel cell cancer is difficult, as it can look like many other types of cancer.
Specific treatment for Merkel cell cancer will be determined by your doctor based on:
Your age, overall health, and medical history
Extent and location of the disease
Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, and therapies
Expectations for the course of the disease
Your opinion or preference
Treatment may include:
Surgery to remove the tumor (including a border of healthy tissue). Since Merkel cell cancer grows fast and often spreads (metastasizes), your doctor may also remove nearby lymph nodes.
Radiation therapy. This therapy uses a radiation machine that emits X-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. This may be given after surgery or as part of the main treatment if surgery is not an option.
Chemotherapy. Treatment with drugs to destroy cancer cells used mainly for more advanced disease.
