Hilary P.United StatesHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairCut My Blow Drying Time In Half!I absolutely love this blow dryer!
I have medium thickness/length hair that is naturally wavy to curly with layers and this blow dryer has saved my hair - I have much more control with the attachments and temperature settings that I barely need to use my hair straightener (I used to have to straighten my hair by 1 inch sections at a time!)
Not only did it cut my drying time in half, I feel like i get a lot more volume and shine.
I was nervous it would be too heavy but its fine and not very loud.posted Nov 14, 2013Link to this post -
SarahAlaskaHairDry HairThick or Coarse Hair10 Facts...1. The color of the hair dryer is nicer in person - the internet does not do it justice.
2. A little heavy for a 'designer' or top brand - but comparable to any other ordinary hair dryer... plus, drying time makes up for it.
3. Drying time is cut in half - literally.
4. Sound - it doesn't have a high pitch sound when on - which is the most annoying part of hair dryers in my opinion - however, it isn't one you would consider quite but i'm able to blow dry my hair at night and not get on anyones nerves.
5. Cool - the cool settings are 'cold' enough. The cold shot button is 'clickable' so you do not have to hold it.
6. Heat - the heat settings aren't as hot as the average hair dryer - which i think is a plus. It has 3 heating settings (Cool, medium, hot) Your hair still dries, but the hair dryer doesn't put out a high enough heat to style it quickly (curling ends, etc). You still can do this, but i think it takes a tad bit longer.
7. Design - buttons are foolishly displaced on the side of the handle which makes it easy for one to push settings that wasn't intentional - however, you get used to the buttons there and it's easy to turn on and off or switch the settings w/o having to look at the hair dryer or pull the hair dryer away from your hair.
8. The concentration nozzles are nice - however, because they are plastic they tend to get hot.
9. The cord is super long.
10. Your hair feels amazing.
I do not regret the purchase, and will w/o a doubt recommend it to family and friends... (I actually scored this hair dryer 70% from Folica!! So, keep your eyes peeled!)posted Nov 13, 2013Link to this post -
AndreaLos Angeles, CAHairMedium BrownDry HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairNo More Hay For Hair!So far I'm loving this hair dryer…my hair feels soft and looks healthy! I decided to upgrade and treat myself to a new dryer; the old one I had been using was frying and breaking my hair. After much research for the best, I opted for the Solica as it was among many recommended ones and fairly cost effective. I really like the way my hair feels and looks after each dry and style; I would recommend this to others as well. The only thing that I've noticed is it is slightly heavier than I'm used too so I'm having to readjust how I hold and style, however this shouldn't be a deterrent to fellow readers!posted Nov 5, 2013Link to this post
McHairDark BrownNormal HairGreat Hair Dryer!Best Hair dryer I ever had!posted Oct 31, 2013Link to this post
SofyaLos AngelesHairMedium BrownNormal HairColor Treated HairAaaaamazing!! Solia & Folica Co. Is Just AmazingWow, I purchased Solias dryer after all the positive reviews. I am so glad I did, it blow drys my hair in minutes and leaves my hair silky and shiny... Really just takes me minutes now, saving 75% of the time from my other dryer. Now I know why my hair turns out so nice when I leave the salon, it's the type of dryers they use. I recommend this 1000x, if your thinking about it... well don't... just get it now!! you will not be sorry.
I got the flat iron also, but have not used it.. cause the dry leaves my hair smoooth and shiny.
Thank you to all the reviews, really does help in deciding which product to purchase. Also thank you to Folica this was my first purchase had a good experience, you have a great website and customer service!! The discounts and special promotions help :)

Maggie J.HairBlondeCurly HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairSo Glad I Took A Chance...This was my first purchase from Folica.com. I found it through a Google search when looking for a hair dryer. Before I say anything about the product, I must rave about the company. The shipping was free, I love that, it was faster than they said and I was able to track my hairdryer . I cannot speak to returns and how they handle those but I can assume that if that were not excellent , customers would be "vocal" about that. Reviews about products and the company are very important to me.
I am very happy with this Solia hairdryer. I have paid up to $200 for a T3 hairdryer and slightly less for a CHi. Never again. T3 barely lasted over a year, the CHI less than 3 months, It doesn't get extremely hot (which is good for me ) but it has a lot of power. I have short fine hair. It is not light weight like the one you can get in stores, you will feel the quality however it is not a problem to hold and use. For the price, I actually got more than I expected. I will be a repeat customer.

It works great on all my clients and dries their hair very quickly so i don't waste any time. It is a little heavier than most professional blow dryers, but i think the quality of the product out weighs the negative! Great buy, would buy again!posted Oct 25, 2013Link to this post
LeahHairMedium BrownCurly HairThick or Coarse HairGreat Dryer!I have very long, very thick and coarse hair. This dryer works awesome and fast. It only takes 20 minutes to dry my hair when it's sopping wet. It gets my hair nice and straight. I still have to use a flat iron after but if you saw my hair, you would know why. I let my best friend borrow it and now she wants one, too. Best dryer I have owned yet.posted Oct 21, 2013Link to this post
CarmenOntarioHairMedium BrownThick or Coarse HairGreat HairdryerI bought this hairdryer about a year and a half ago and it's still going strong! It's light, powerful and drys my hair really fast.
I didn't realize just how much I loved it until I accidentally left it at the cottage. In a pinch I bought one at the drug store. Two days later I drove 4 hours round trip to get it back. I can't live without it!
I've just ordered a second one so I never have to go without it again!!posted Oct 13, 2013Link to this post -
MelanieHairDark BrownFine or Thin HairBroke After 6 MonthsAt first, I really liked this hair dryer. I noticed that it did not get as hot as my old dryer, but somehow dried my hair more quickly. Also, it blows A LOT of air, so if you have fine hair that is prone to tangling, it will leave your hair in a tangled wad. After 6 months of daily use, the high setting stopped working and would only work on low. Also, the dryer did not get hot anymore. I was VERY disappointed that it broke so quickly considering I spent almost $100 on it. Luckily it was under warranty and I sent it back to Folica. I feel as though I should have just kept my $20 dryer!! At least it lasted more than 6 months!posted Oct 4, 2013Link to this post

- Did you know?
- Dustin Tokarski hasn't fared too well at the Bell Centre early in his career. In 6 home starts, he has a 2-2-2 record but a subpar 3.50 GAA and a .886 SV%.
In the final column of this years' Fantasy Focus series, we take a look at the prospects. These players likely won't spend the entire season in the NHL but should see some time with the big club and depending on what role they're put in, they could have some significant fantasy upside. With the injury to Rene Bourque, one player could very well get a chance to play in a potential scoring role coming out of training camp.
Nathan Beaulieu: If injuries arise with the powerplay struggling at the same time, Beaulieu becomes a prime candidate for a short-term recall. His defensive game needs some development so he's not likely a player who is going to be up long-term. Given his offensive abilities though, he's worth keeping an eye on when he is in Montreal.
Michael Bournival: The other junior player in camp (Gallagher) last year got all the attention but I truly believe Bournival was ahead of him in terms of how close either were to making the Habs' opening roster. However, what endeared him to Jacques Martin is why you need to look elsewhere when Bournival is with Montreal - he is a quality, versatile two way forward that has next to no chance of playing in any sort of offensive role at this stage of his career. That made him an interesting 4th liner for Martin but that's not the type of player to help you win your league.
Gabriel Dumont: I see him moving up the depth chart after Michel Therrien gets a close look at him. He's not realistically a candidate to play inside the top-9 up front but even as a fourth liner, he might be worth a pickup in very deep leagues due to the physical, spunky style he plays; he's bound to pick up some penalty minutes along the way. Beyond that though, stay away.
Alex Galchenyuk: The most interesting and exciting rookie forward to come to Montreal in years has a chance to crack the Habs' roster out of training camp. If that happens, he is worth a draft pick in most formats. Where to pick him becomes the question, however. If you think he will stay in the NHL all season long, it's justifiable to take him in the middle rounds. But, if you think he might only play his nine games before being sent back to junior to avoid burning a year off his entry-level deal, you're best off waiting until a late round to pick him.
Brendan Gallagher: Natural goal scorers are a bit of a rare breed which works in Gallagher's favour. If he has another strong training camp, he should have a better than average chance to make the opening night roster. If that happens, he is worth a late draft pick in your fantasy league. If he starts the season with Hamilton and is called up, he would be worth picking up as he likely would be placed into a scoring role.
Blake Geoffrion: This is a make-or-break year for Geoffrion. I would avoid drafting him at all costs - if he makes the roster he likely won't be in an offensive role. As a call-up though, he is an intriguing candidate for a deep fantasy team. When Geoffrion had success in Nashville, it was when he played a top-six role in the AHL and then was brought up to do the same with the Predators. If that situation presents itself in 2012-13 with Montreal, he's capable of another quality stretch of games where he could be worthy of a pickup.
Louis Leblanc: Despite the fact he is widely believed to be the Habs' second best forward prospect and the fact he spent more time in the NHL than the AHL last year, I don't think he brings a whole lot of fantasy upside to the table this year. His offensive game isn't refined enough to be a regular in the top-six with Montreal meaning his role would at best be a third liner who sees some time on the penalty kill. That's not worth using a roster spot on unless you're in the deepest of leagues.
Aaron Palushaj: His play toward the end of last season may help his cause towards earning a roster spot out of camp. Despite that, his potential usefulness is limited on a fantasy roster unless he gets the offensive role temporarily vacated by the injured Bourque. Palushaj can be streaky, if he does play with Montreal and gets on a bit of a hot streak, he's worth picking up but the potential gains would be short-term.
Frederic St. Denis: He's likely to be the first defenceman recalled this year if injuries/trades arise. Despite that, he doesn't have any sort of upside in your pool. He won't see any powerplay time while his offensive game in general is mediocre at best. He's a valuable player to the organization as a depth guy but that's where his value stops.
Jarred Tinordi: The only way Tinordi is worth an addition to your fantasy team is if you believe he is going to drop the gloves with some sort of regularity. Given that he'd immediately become the most talented fighter on the defence corps, that's not entirely unrealistic but it's a risky gamble at best. If he does wind up spending some time in the NHL, someone in a deep league will probably pick him up due to his status as a former 1st rounder but there should be better options than him out there.
The introduction of rookies into the draft in most fantasy hockey sites over the past few years has added another interesting element to the draft. Finding that one rookie that is off of most peoples' radars can be a big boost to your success but on the flip side, drafting that rookie too early, or drafting too many rookies altogether, can be quite cumbersome. Looking at the collection of Montreal rookies/young prospects, there isn't really anyone who looks to provide good value at your draft. Yes, there's Galchenyuk, but as is often the case with players selected in the top few spots of the draft, someone will invariably select him several rounds before most would even start to consider picking him. When it comes to your drafts, look away from the Montreal youngsters.

Collaboration is very important to us, so we've worked with 3 different artists--all close friends of the digz family--to create exciting new pieces to share with you.

Risks and challenges
With manufacturing, there are always potential roadblocks when it comes to timing and quality. We have been working with a very experienced team on the West Coast, however, to help us design our line and source production here in the U.S. from the best of the best. We began this process back in May of 2012, and have treaded carefully to leave very little room for error. Should any issues arise, we will remain hyper-communicative with all backers to keep you posted every step of the way.
We are dedicated to you as both backers and future customers, and are committed to making your experience with us as smooth and joyful as possible.
Learn about accountability on KickstarterFAQ
First, we celebrate. Then, we use your wonderful contributions to support marketing outreach and designing a world-class web store that will help drive our launch campaign.
Not yet. All of our time and investment has gone into the design phase, but we need your help to bring the products to life. We'll send high-resolution pictures of the actual items in each color and style once they're produced so you can choose the ones that you'd like us to ship to you.
That's the next part of the process. Once we've met our funding goal (fingers crossed!), we'll follow up with you to get your choices sorted.
Absolutely. We've invested our own time and money to get to this point, but the money we hope to raise will completely cover production of our first line.

The Tuvatu Gold Project is located on the main island of Viti Levu in Fiji within three contiguous Special Prospecting License areas (SPL's 1283, 1296 and 1465) covering 12,166 hectares (105 km
) in the upper Sabeto Valley, 25 kilometers from the Nadi International Airport.
The Fiji Islands are located in the SW Pacific's "Ring of Fire" in an island-arc volcanic setting that is prospective for epithermal gold and porphyry copper-gold mineralizing systems. Tuvatu is one of several epithermal gold systems aligned on the Viti Levu Lineament, Fiji's corridor of mineralized volcanic centers.
Fiji's oldest operating gold mine, Vatukoula, is located 50km NE of Tuvatu. Vatukoula was one of the first major gold deposits identified in the SW Pacific region and has produced over 7 million ounces of gold over its 75 years of operations (per website of Vatukoula Gold Mines, June 2013). Fiji remains underexplored and highly prospective for new discoveries.
Tuvatu was previously developed in the 1997-2000 period by the Emperor Gold Mining Company of Australia. Underground development started in 1997, culminating in resource and reserve estimates under JORC and the completion of pre-feasibility and feasibility studies in 2000. Work completed in this period included over 1,600 meters of underground development, 87,000 meters of drilling, with a total of eighteen mineralized structures identified and drilled to a depth of 240 meters below surface.
The historical resource and reserve estimates that Emperor's pre-feasibility and feasibility reserves were based on have since been superseded by the updated resource estimate in the technical report "Technical Report and Resource Estimate on the Tuvatu Gold Deposit, Tuvatu Gold Project, Viti Levu, Fiji" (the "Technical Report") dated May 15, 2014, and was filed by the Company on SEDAR.
The Tuvatu Gold Project currently has an indicated mineral resource of 299,500 oz. Au (1,101,000 tonnes at 8.46 g/t Au) and an inferred mineral resource of 468,000 oz. Au (1,506,000 tonnes at 9.67 g/t Au).

"Independent Technical Report And Resource Estimate On The Tuvatu Gold Deposit "
The Company cautions that historic resources and reserves are referenced for historical context only. Current mineral resources are not reserves and have not demonstrated economic viability. Mineral reserves have yet to be established on the project.
Gold mineralization at Tuvatu is hosted in a series of low-sulphidation epithermal gold-silver vein systems at the periphery of the intrusive stock of the Navilawa Caldera. Gold mineralization is typified by native gold as well as gold-silver tellurides within banded quartz veins and stockwork zones. Two major vein corridors have been extensively drilled to-date, however a number of other known prospects have yet to be drill tested on the extensive property position. A total of 600 holes (87,000 meters) were previously drilled on the property during the 1997-2000 Emperor era.
Exploration in the current Lion One era has targeted 560 meters of strike extent of the east-west trending Murau structural corridor. Multiple sub-parallel near-surface, high-grade veins have been encountered. The Murau structural corridor is located west of north-south trending UR structural corridor that hosts an indicated mineral resource of 299,500 oz. Au (1,101,000 tonnes at 8.46 g/t Au) and an inferred mineral resource of 468,000 oz. Au (1,506,000 tonnes at 9.67 g/t Au).
The Company is focused on increasing its understanding on the geometry of these mineralized zones and the structural controls that influence their emplacement, with a goal of increasing the Company's resource base, building a viable development model, and advancing towards production.
In 2013 the Company initiated the project permitting and community consultation process with the approval of its Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Mining Lease application for Tuvatu with the Mineral Resources Department of Fiji (the "MRD").
Highlights of the 2012-2013 drilling program are summarized in the Tuvatu Drilling Highlights 2012-2013 link on the right hand side of the page.

Having tried many video-based apps, I like Qwiki a lot. It's simple to use and while it doesn't create videos in the classic sense, instead forming montages of photos, its results are great. Even better, privacy options are clearly laid out for concerned users.
Set up is a breeze, allowing for either Facebook or email based sign up. In the former's case, much is said about how nothing will be shared or used without prior content. A reassuring sign. Once set up, it's fun to browse to see what others are doing. Much like Instagram, the interface is clearly laid out, lending itself to consumers and creators alike. Creating montages is similarly easy.
Qwiki offers two main options when it comes to creation: auto and manual. The former is surprisingly powerful with the app grouping together photos from the same dates to create a themed selection. It's then down to the user to add some captions, a title and description, along with a choice of music which can be taken from their iPod selection or from the app's soundtrack selection. Either way, other users can hear the track with an option to buy it via iTunes if they so wish. The manual option is much the same with the only difference being that users have full control over which photos are used. It's simple to use and quite quick to set up, although the uploading to Qwiki's servers can take a short while. Once created, it's possible to share to all major social networks as well as embed to a website or choose to keep things private. Again, it's easy to do.
This ease of use is what makes Qwiki stand out so significantly. It's actually fun to use as well as view the creations, much like Instagram. Filtering and basic editing completes the package, making Qwiki a very tempting proposition for those who want to show off a form of photo slideshow to their friends and family.

Obama-mask clown gets lifetime Missouri fair ban. Just, or too harsh?
(Read article summary)An Obama-mask clown at the Missouri State Fair was banned for life, after photos and video asking a crowd if they wanted to see Obama 'run down by a bull' went viral. The crowd cheered. Fair officials dubbed the stunt 'unconscionable.'
Jameson Hsieh/AP
Missouri State Fair officials have banned for life the rodeo clown who wore a President Obama mask while facing bulls at the event over the weekend.
The clown in question engaged in an "unconscionable stunt" and will never perform at the Show Me state venue again, the Missouri State Fair Commission said Monday, in a statement. Fair officials are also reviewing their contract with the Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association, the contractor responsible for hiring and overseeing bull ring clowns.
The performance was "inappropriate and not in keeping with the Fair's standards," said the statement.
The fair did not reveal the clown's identity.
During a bull riding contest on Sunday, the clown appeared wearing a rubber mask of the president with an upside down broomstick trailing from his backside, as if it were a tail. The audience was asked, over a public address system, if it wanted to see Mr. Obama "run down by a bull." Many people present clapped and cheered, according to one witness, Perry Beam.
"It was feeling like some kind of Klan rally," said Mr. Beam.
Others defended the act as within the mainstream of rodeo ring entertainment. The clown was meant to be imitating a dummy, another witness, Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association member David Berry, told the Associated Press. Bull ring clowns often dress as sitting presidents, Mr. Berry said.

A daily updated summary of the week in TV.
Alternate Name: Richard A Dysart
From All Movie Guide: American actor Richard Dysart has been portraying sandy-haired, distinguished corporate types for nigh onto thirty years. Several seasons of stage and TV work were followed by supporting authority-figure roles in such films as The Hospital (1971), The Crazy World of Julius Vrooder (1974) (as the title character's dad), Meteor (1978) (the Secretary of Defense) and Being There (1979) (the doctor of politico Melvyn Douglas). TV-movie credits for Dysart include The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman (1973), The People vs. Jean Harris (1980), Last Days of Patton (1985), the Hedda Hopper/Louella Parsons biopic Malice in Wonderland (1988), and the made-for-cable Marilyn and Bobby: Her Final Affair (1993).

would love some feedback on above well water. messsing around with ezwater seems to tell me to use 100% RO for mash for my IPA.
Its not too bad. I was slightly surprised with the slightly elevated sodium, but then I noticed you are in Savannah. The aquifer gets a little more affected by seawater intrusion as you get closer to the coast. The main problem is the alkalinity. It is at a fairly high level, so if acidification is to be performed to reduce that alkalinity, phosphoric acid really needs to be strongly considered. Other acids may contribute too much flavor to the finished beer. Bru'n Water has the tools for working with this water. This water is otherwise quite usable for brewing. Acidification will be needed along with a dose of gypsum for pale ales.

Web Services Plug-in for FileMaker (v9 – v11)
The Web Services Plug-in is no longer being developed or supported.
The following information is provided as a historical archive of technical documentation and product resources.
This plug-in has not been tested with FileMaker 12 and may have incompatibilities.
Please contact us for suggestion on alternatives to this plug-in for integrating FileMaker with Web Services.
Plug-in Activation descriptions:
Single-User Activation (FileMaker Pro Client): Single User activation enables a FileMaker Pro client machine to use the plug-in for connectivity to a Web Service.
Server Activation (FileMaker Server): Installs on a single FileMaker Server. You will need to write scripts that run at recurring intervals to activate the Plug-in to communicate with Web Services. If you have FileMaker Pro clients that need to make immediate requests directly to a web service, you will need to enable a Single-user activation for each clients.
This activation code will work for both Single-user Activation and for Server Activation:
Activation name: FileMaker Pro developer
Activation Code: WEB-3.5-XB0Q-WREK-VFUR-R0071
How to activate:
Activation requires the plug-in to register, activated via a script. Set a variable to this:
_FmNx_Register( "WEB-3.5-XB0Q-WREK-VFUR-R0071"; "FileMaker Pro developer" )
If the plug-in was successfully registered, the result would be the word: "success".
Without activation, the plug-in will run for one hour at a time in "demo" mode. (Restarting FileMaker will reactivate.)
Resource (Support Archive)
A Knowledge Base archive of technical documentation includes instructions, available functions and examples.
Connecting FileMaker to the Cloud
The Web Services Plug-in delivers an array of possibilities to FileMaker developers who want to integrate web services into their solutions. If you can write FileMaker calculations, then you can interact with web services.
Today's business systems demand rich and seamless connectivity with all the web has to offer. Need to look up the city and state for a ZIP code? Need live information for a financial services product? Need to upload order or product data for e-commerce? Need parts and service or shipping information from an online service? The Web Services open up a world of possibilities.
The Web Services Plug-in can connect to both Internet and enterprise web services, and can be used on a local FileMaker client, or installed on your FileMaker Server. |
How it works
The Web Services Plug-in reads a SOAP service's WSDL (Web Services Description Language) file and exposes the Web Service methods as FileMaker functions, allowing you to integrate these functions directly into your FileMaker system.
The Web Services Plug-in also includes HTTP client functions for accessing REST APIs, often provided by large-scale web applications. These functions can retrieve, parse and store data from REST web service responses in your solutions, instead of using Web Viewers.
What's new in Web Services Plug-in v3.5?
Web Services Plug-in includes support for accessing REST-ful APIs.
Web Services Plug-in also includes built-in standards-based XML and JSON parsers (new in v3.5) for fast, reliable handling of service responses. Instead of guess-timating with FileMaker's text manipulation functions or laboriously building your own custom functions, your FileMaker (v9-v11) project can have access to XPATH and JSON query engines for precision response parsing. The WSP XPATH and JSON query functions are also flexible enough to handle parsing of XML and JSON data your solution has access to, not just Web Services responses.
Web Services Plug-in supports client certificate authentication for environments where it is required.
IMPORTANT: When registered, v3.5 requires a 3.x activation key. If you call the registration function without the correct activation key (including for older versions), the plug-in will not function correctly.
What are Web Services?
Web Services provide a standard way for one system to share data and make its functionality available to others. The Web Services Plug-in allows you to make useful and feature-rich FileMaker solutions by integrating dynamic third-party data. Examples include postal code lookups, address verifications, currency conversions, SMS text message sending, ecommerce orders, shipping rates, stock quote lookups, and more. In addition, enterprise products from SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, IBM and others often support Web Services, allowing you to connect the FileMaker solutions in your organization to other internal, external or business partner systems.
Stock Quote is a very simple demo file which uses a free web service. You can download a copy of the Stock Quote demo. |
What is a WSDL?
The Web Services Plug-in includes a parser for the Web Services Description Language ("WSDL"), a standard XML-based format for describing SOAP web services. A "WSDL" (file) is a definition of remote methods (functions) the services provide, necessary to access them. With the Web Services Plug-in, any service described by a WSDL can be accessed by your FileMaker (v9-v11) application using ordinary FileMaker function calls automatically generated by the plug-in.
Sites that provide directories of useful web services include XMethods, ProgammableWeb, and webserviceX.NET.
Subscription-based services from providers like CDYNE, StrikeIron, or Xignite.
Major web companies such as eBay, Amazon, PayPal, FedEx and Google also provide REST or SOAP APIs to help application developers embed and extend their services.
Note: The Web Services Plug-in has not been tested with many of these Web Services to assure compatibility. Although SOAP and WSDLs are theoretically based on standards, in reality the data formats provided by many providers may vary.
Web Services Plug-in 3.5 works with v9, v10, and v11 of FileMaker Pro and FileMaker Server or FileMaker Server Advanced. [Note: These versions are no longer supported by FileMaker, Inc.]
For Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server, v10.5 (Leopard) or v10.6 (Snow Leopard) is required on the computer (or computers) running the Plug-in. The plug-in was not tested with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion.
For Windows, Windows XP or later, or Windows Server 2003 or later is required on the computer (or computers) running the Plug-in.

Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains."
Steve Jobs — BusinessWeek interview, May 1998
Have you ever received a notice from your utility company offering a "level-pay plan"? This bill-paying solution was created to help customers manage the dramatic ups and downs of heating and cooling bills over a year's time. The level-pay plan allows you to pay the same set amount each month all year long, even if your actual expense fluctuates.
By leveraging some simple math, the utility company averages out the month-to-month cost variability over the year for you, and keeps everything in sync with a periodic review. This method is called "mean-based budgeting" and it's very similar to the innovative concept that MoneySlinger is built on.
By comparison, virtually all other personal budgeting systems today use what's called "zero-based" or "zero-sum" budgeting. This method of budgeting means you must continually adjust for random expense variability. You're required to be an accountant, regularly allocating every dollar of income received, by adjusting parts of your budget upward or downward to continually net a balance of zero. Seems reasonable, but the downside is the detail-oriented nature of the system, and constant maintenance requirements, requiring you to continually make adjustments to your budget, and then of course, your lifestyle. You have to ask yourself, in this situation, are you managing your money, or is your money managing you?
There's no reason why you can't take the labor and time saving benefits of mean-based budgeting for a single expense, as used by the utility companies, and create a complete cash flow system to manage your entire personal budgeting needs. Doing so puts personal budgeting in another world. So much so that it deserves its own name: Speed-Budgeting™. You're not doing what everyone else is doing faster, you're actually doing 90% less work than everyone else. You're reaching a reduced level of effort that's impossible to achieve using traditional, zero-based budgeting methods.
Take a look at the chart above. The thin solid lines represent income and expense variability through the year. The dashed lines represent the same data, but now the income and expense amounts are averaged through the year. If you're looking to have all this data help you make financial decisions, which pair of lines in the chart (solid or dashed) shows you most easily if you're spending more than you're earning…and that you're living below your mean? A further explanation of averaging can be found here.
Mean-based budgeting turns personal budgeting on its head, and along with it, all the preconceptions about the "normal" things you had to do for personal budgeting. On top of that, what you thought you couldn't do before, well, now you can do. For instance,
Let's break RULE #1: MoneySlinger is a "big picture" personal budgeting application, not a bank account reconciler. These two functions are night and day (forest and trees). Traditional zero-based budgeting applications require continuous bank account reconciling in order to function…or they fail. There's absolutely no need for this when using MoneySlinger (or the potential security risk and lack of privacy).
Let's break RULE #2: Mean-based budgeting doesn't require you to chase expense variability all year long. Since your working with averages, MoneySlinger pre-calculates 90% of your personal budgeting figures for the entire year, producing a few key figures which are routinely used every month…all year long.
And what about the other 10% of your calculations and efforts? MoneySlinger has that refined down to one single, elegant calculation. You repeat this same calculation twice a month and MoneySlinger tells you exactly what to do.
Let's break RULE #3: No more category hell. Once you average each of your individual expenses into fixed monthly costs, you come to the realization that there's no reason why you can't combine these costs and manage them as one expense. So MoneySlinger groups all your expenses together into only one of three category types:
Once you've put your expenses into one of these three accounts, MoneySlinger determines a fixed, average monthly cost for each account.
Yes. When we said you're managing the forest and not the trees, we meant it. Let's review…
So far:
So you've eliminated what's normally a tremendous amount of personal budgeting effort over a year's time. But at this point it's all on paper. So how do you manage these three expense accounts in real life when they actually consist of many individual expenses that are all due on different days? First, let's take one step back…
Before we take the next step, it's important to realize that when using zero-based personal budgeting methods, you're managing your money from behind. This means you're continually required to figure out where you were, so you can figure out where you are, so you can figure out where you're going…with your money. This is the necessary process cycle of zero-based budgeting. The point being: you can't move forward until you resolve the past. And why do you have to keep resolving the past? Because in zero-based budgeting, the past is always different.
Using MoneySlinger, you've created your own level-pay plan by averaging your costs over the entire year. In contrast to zero-based budgeting, you always know what your costs were last month. You know what they'll be next month, and you know what they'll be six months from now: the same. They're exactly the same every month (this is the reason you're not dependent on reconciling your fluctuating bank account statements). Working with averages is a complete game changer…and therefore, a rule changer.
But we just don't break rules: we're going to make a few too (this is where the steroids come in).
Well, remember we totaled and averaged all your expenses into one of three accounts? Even though each account may hold individual expenses due at different times of the month, you have to consider again, you already know what the average monthly cost is going to be for each of these three accounts. Yes? So…if you already know the monthly cost for each of these expense groups, wouldn't it be nice if we could pay all of these expenses at one time? How?
Yes. You pay each of your three expense accounts, in full, by making deposits into three individual bank accounts. Each bank account is dedicated to one of MoneySlinger's Blue, Red or Gold accounts. In essence, you're paying in advance all your budgeted expenses by simply filling out three deposit slips. A few obvious benefits are:
Let's review again:
You've consolidated and averaged all your expenses and costs for the year into three category accounts, and set up physical bank accounts for each into which you'll make your "expense deposits". But there's still one last issue to tackle, and that is scheduling. Exactly when do you do all this great stuff?
So far, everything we've just tackled only has to do with your expenses, or the cash that's flowing out the door. What about the cash coming in, your income? The ultimate benefit of MoneySlinger comes when you manipulate and streamline your income and income schedule to be in complete harmony with your expense schedule.
You might be saying right now "how can I manipulate my income schedule when my income schedule is out of my hands" or "my income has no schedule". First, like the single bank account that you normally plop your income into at random times without thinking twice about, it's time to rethink that again.
Who says that when you physically get paid, that you have to inject that money into your life or bank account immediately? Who says you can't collect and hold that income to the side, and then bring it into your life on your own, self-determined cash flow schedule? The answer is, if you truly have control of your cash flow, you can. And with MoneySlinger, you do.
The best compromise you can make between weekly/bi-weekly/random income schedules and monthly expense schedules, is to create your own "in-between" schedule. This turns out to be a half month, normally called a semi-monthly schedule. So twice per month, you'll be managing your money using the system we just described. MoneySlinger calls these two periods per month "Sessions".
During each Session you make your pre-calculated deposits into each of your Blue, Red and Gold accounts, you log your income and Blue expense payments, and then pay all your bills for that Session. Done. Each Session sets you up financially until the next Session. You don't have to do a darn thing until the next Session except collect and hold your checks and bills until the next Session…and then repeat. This simple activity repeats like clockwork every month and becomes routine and predictable…and fast. Very, very fast.
It may be hard to comprehend the benefits or where you'll be in your money management efforts after putting in the time to first get your MoneySlinger budget set-up. But a few key points are this: After your initial set-up, the simple activities you execute for Session 1 (deposits and bill paying), and the activities for Session 2 (deposits and bill paying), are virtually the same every month. These become predictable, repetitive and memorable routines using the same few figures all year long.
After you've practiced your Sessions a few times over a month or two you'll have a routine as well as manipulated little odds and ends into "your" schedule. At this point, more likely than not, you may get a nagging feeling that you're missing something that you should be doing. You're not missing anything beyond finding something else to do with all your extra time.
You've just passed the point of system set-up and practice, and have just reached a level of predictability, skill and speed unattainable using zero-based budgeting methods. Congratulations! You're now officially Speed-Budgeting™, where money management becomes inconspicuous and darn near invisible in your life.

Train Titans is an intriguing puzzle game. It lacks a certain touch of class, focusing more on the puzzles themselves than any surrounding hints of glamor but what's there is a solid and entertaining game.
The player takes the role of a train controller. Think of it as like a mixture of air control and setting up a toy train set. Throughout the 28 levels of the Puzzle mode, players must set up tracks to help the trains on screen get from one side to the exit. A simple tutorial goes some way to explaining how to do this. Players drag and drop pieces of track, setting the route up for the train. It's a little fiddly at first, mostly in terms of setting up curved pieces of track but it is more effective than tapping repeatedly.
Each level gets progressively more difficult. Increasing numbers of trains must be diverted and items like teleporters and splitters play a vital role to transport the vehicles. The levels don't take long to complete, once the player knows what to do, which means Train Titans is an ideal game to play in short bursts. Taking 10 minutes out to focus on a puzzle means satisfaction and progress is possible quickly.
After the completion of five levels, simulation mode unlocks which provides a twist on the concept with trains appearing at regular intervals and the need to develop a city transport system of sorts. I found the Puzzle mode much more enjoyable though, but that's not to say simulation mode isn't worth a look.
Train Titans is a fun idea for a game and quite well implemented, excluding the minor controls niggle. The only real flaw is the length of the game. The puzzle expert is going to feel in need of new puzzles at a later date so hopefully this will be a title with steady updates and support.

Classical Antiquity Lantern Slide Collection
(Bryn Mawr College)
With a collection of over 200,000 slides and 50,000 digital images, the Visual Resources Center at Bryn Mawr College supports the image needs of several academic departments, including the History of Art, Archaeology, Classics, and Growth and Structure of Cities. Among its holdings are a collection of lantern slides focused on Classical Antiquity, dating from the late 19th to mid 20th century. Coverage extends across the Mediterranean world, from Southern Europe (Greece, Italy, Spain, France) to North Africa (Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia) and the Near East (Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria). In many cases, these lantern slides serve as valuable historical records, depicting monuments that have since been completely destroyed or severely damaged. Some slides record excavations in progress or monuments in various stages of repair or restoration, providing unique visual documentation. Other images offer views of sites that have subsequently been obscured by modern development, or significantly altered by the vagaries of time, whether neglect, pollution, or warfare. Thus, these black-and-white images can offer contemporary viewers a fresh view of well-known monuments, colored by the patina of history.
Lantern slides played a vital role in the development of Art History and Architectural History as academic disciplines by enabling the visual study of works and sites in remote locations. Slide shows, especially those employing tandem projectors to display side-by-side comparisons, became the preferred method of instruction for faculty in these fields. Widely used from the mid-19th century, lantern slides declined in popularity during the mid-20th century, with the advent of the 35 mm color slide. In order to continue using this obsolete technology for study and instruction, the images on the slides must be migrated to formats that are usable to current scholars and students. Also, since lantern slides are constructed from plates of glass, they are inherently fragile and prone to damage. A desire to preserve these visual records, as well as to re-purpose them for current technologies, led the Visual Resources Center to partner with the Center for the Study of Architecture (CSA) at Bryn Mawr. Through this collaboration, the collection of lantern slides was re-photographed for use as 35mm slides, as well as high-resolution digital images. These digital images have also been made available in ARTstor, with over 300 examples of Classical architecture, architectural decoration, and sculpture.

I know who Miley Cyrus aka Hannah Montana is, but I've never heard of Demi Lovato. It doesn't surprise me that they may sound the same. I probably wouldn't know the difference between them anyway.

Let me give you some information on Demi Lovato. She is rather talented 20 something who stared during last summer's production of a Walt Disney movie called Camp Rock. Which was in my humble opinion a rather cynical way for Walt Disney Corp to fin great upcoming vocalists. Everyone sang their hearts out in the movie and Disney picked the best of the lot. There were four winners, a group of three boys with the last name Jonas and Demi Lovato. Disney signed all four to a contract and marked the boys as the Jonas Gang and is billing Lovato as a solo act. If you look at the cover of the Camp Rock CD there are a boy and a girl together in the foreground and one in a jump in the background. The girl is Demi Lovato while the two boys are two thirds of the Jonas Gang.
Im not a fan of Miley Cyrus AT ALL. But ill admit Demi Lovato has a more mature, pretty, voice. I think ileys voice is very masculine.
I tend to gravitate to music with a harder edge to it like So What and Misss Cyrus just does not have that harder edge I am looking for.
I am not a big Montana Fan, lets see what she can do 15 years from now.

i don't think miley and demi sound alike. at all. i hate miley with a passion. demi on the other hand i like. she has a great voice
sorry, but they dont sound alike at all haha. miley doesn't have nearly as good of a voice as demi. demi can actually SING. demi can do riffs unlike anybody her age - shes so good.
I don't like either
My Top 5 Fave Celebs: Vanessa Hudgens, Marisa Miller, Heidi Klum, Rachel Bilson and Hayden Panettiere!
I only like Demi Lovato....
But I know the songs of Hannah Montana....
I don't think they sound identical
LG-- Demi Lovato's that chick from Camp Rock. You know, that one cheap movie with the jonas brothers? No offense, but Demi Lovato isn't any better than Hannah Montana. Miley Cyrus can't even sing to save her life.
demi lovato has a much better voice and is more talented than miley cyrus. miley's alright, but demi is better!!
I gotta say i dont think they sound the same at all.. Demi's pitch is much higher than Miley's. I may be the only one but i kinda prefer Miley, her voice is so placid.. Call me Crazy
I wouldn't know, I'm just here to mention that LG and I (and also magic, I'm sure) know how to dance to hannah montannaaah ! wooot!
One for all and all for adore !
I absoulotley ahte hannah montana! Demi lovatp has a way better voice. And have you seen those pics of miley?
