by Zak Billmeier Instant help You've seen the ads — a couple is driving on a secluded country road at night when a deer bounds into their path, causing them to crash the car. Neither of them can reach the phone, but their onboard OnStar system automatically dials an OnStar Advisor, who promptly sends help. Now you can put OnStar in your car Of course, OnStar has been only available in GM vehicles and a few other cars — until now. OnStar's FMV mirror replaces your vehicle's original rear-view mirror, allowing you to add this safety feature to a wide range of vehicles. It gives you key OnStar services (see below), and lets you tap the blue button to talk to an OnStar Advisor whenever you need to — 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Plus, it gives you built-in Bluetooth® for making hands-free calls, and it works as a phone all by itself. OnStar gives you peace of mind Your OnStar subscription gives you a lot of cool features — and you can talk to a real live OnStar Advisor any time you get in a bind. Check out some of the other great things about OnStar: Automatic Crash Response Built-in sensors can tell if you've been in a crash — and built-in GPS technology lets OnStar know where you are. They can send for help, even if you can't respond. And if the crash knocks the mirror loose, a built-in backup battery ensures the call for help is made. Emergency A push of the red emergency button gives you a priority connection to a specially trained OnStar Advisor — a great feature if you want to report a crash or problem on the side of the road. Navigation Get accurate, turn-by-turn audio directions. If you wander off course, the system detects it and guides you back on track. And you can even enter a destination on your computer using Google Maps and send it to the mirror to load directions. Connections Hands-free calling is built in — even if you forget your phone. All you have to do is purchase some OnStar prepaid minutes, and you can place calls hands-free through the mirror. Security OnStar Advisors use GPS to pinpoint your location, and can send a tow truck or locksmith, and even track your car if it's been stolen. Easy access to OnStar and other features The OnStar FMV mirror is easy to use. You'll find convenient buttons that'll help get you turn-by-turn directions, report an emergency, make hands-free phone calls, talk to an OnStar Advisor, or make hands-free calls. Important Note: To get OnStar service, you'll need a subscription, which starts at $18.95 per month. Some vehicles will need a mounting kit to install the OnStar FMV mirror — call us for details. If you need a kit, OnStar recommends professional installation if you have little experience with car installations. Check out Time Magazine's review of the OnStar mirror. Things to check before calling Your windshield angle must be between 20-50 degrees, with no cracks anywhere in the windshield and/or chips near the mirror mount. You'll have to relocate remote start/keyless entry antennas, quick-pass devices, or other similar transceivers if they're within a foot of your mirror, as they'll interfere with the ability to acquire a GPS signal. You can't use the OnStar FMV Mirror on the following: motorcycles, RVs, boats, ATVs, snowmobiles, tractors, go-karts, etc.; vehicles made before 1982; vehicles over 8500 pounds; vehicles with metallic tint on the front windshield. If you're installing the mirror yourself, you should have the following tools handy: wire strippers & cutters, voltmeter (NO test lights), Torx T20 key/driver, 2.5mm Allen key/driver, panel tools, zip ties, electrical tape, soldering gun and solder, and a razor blade.

A great deal from the BEST company Written By Snoots, Georgia on Thursday, April 02, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I couldn't find a new GM vehicle to suit me and purchased something that does not have OnStar. Previous experience with OnStar had been very impressive and I wondered how I would fill the void. A search turned up Crutchfield and their Outstanding deal on the OnStar FMV. It doesn't matter that Delphi has stopped making them. They are still supported and I am much more at ease having it in my new vehicle. It's an option that once you have had it, you just don't want to do without it. Pros: You can't go wrong with this! Cons: none

Onstar FMV Added to Fiat 500 Written By JonR, Roswell, GA on Saturday, October 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) We added this to my wife's 2012 Fiat 500 after she has a minor accident and had no cell service. The mirror is larger than the original but offers a wider rear view. All of the buttons function exactly as the OEM version except for the vehicle integrated functions such as TPMS alerts. install was simple using common tools. The OEM a mirror foot remains in place and the mirror foot attaches to it. Be sure to tighten the set screw after a few miles driven as it seemed to settle in with a few road jounces. Pros: Adds all of the emergency, communications and navigation features to cars without them Easy to install in 20 minutes using common tools Very reasonable cost from Crutchfields Cons: Not integrated with OEM vehicle sensors

OnStar® FMV Written By Anonymous, Kansas city on Friday, August 29, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) All ready installed and helped me through a problem great product
Absolutely love it! Written By tseefl, Lake Havasu City, Az on Friday, August 15, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I often have to drive through the desert where there is no phone signal and little traffic. I was not able to get the Onstar when I purchased my Toyota. When I called Onstar, after experiencing a friend's car breakdown, to see if I could get Onstar. I was elated to find out it was a simple matter of changing my rear view mirror! The Onstar website led me to Crutchfield. When I called Crutchfield to verify what I should buy, they were so very patient with me, answering all of my questions. They prepared a shopping cart on line with what I needed. I then shopped around online to see if I could get a better price. I found that Crutchfield had the best price. Locally , our Car Toyz installed it. That night I enrolled with Onstar. I was amazed that the entire process was so easy, and inexpensive! I now have the piece of mind , knowing that when I am driving though the beautiful and desolate desert, when I see the green glow on my rear view mirror, that I have a working satellite phone and someone out there who can help me if I need it! Pros: Crutchfield's exceptional, personal service. The safety of Onstar. The simplicity of the process, thanks to Crutchfield and Car Toyz. Cons: That I didn't do this sooner
Technology is good Written By mike, Atlanta, GA on Thursday, August 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought the OnStar FMV for my 87 XJS Jag. I like the live interface onstar offers with their directions. This is a real easy way to get the best route and not be fumbling with an I Phone or Google maps. The device was easy to install and it works just as well as in my Cadillac. Pros: Easy to install Cons: could be improved to connect to my radio by bluetooth
Muriel Page Written By On Star FMV reear view mirror, Washington, DC on Tuesday, July 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I find this mirror to do everything that I need to keep me safe. Cons: On star charges me too much .
Love the peace of mind and convenience! Written By C.A., Stone Mtn, Ga on Sunday, July 13, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy installation with install card! Enjoy peace of mind knowing help is just a button press away. Lost? Need directions? Push the button. Emergency? Push the button. And if there is an vehicle accident and you can't call for help Automatic Crash Response is there to send help to your exact GPS location. That is true peace of mind! Pros: Safety and security Cons: Doesn't have all of the features that come with standard OnStar.
DIY Install Experience Written By Shane, Virginia on Sunday, July 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought the Onstar FMV unit from Crutchfield. I have installed a handful of DVD head units in my vehicles and, since there are only 3 wires to connect with Onstar FMV, I decided to give it a shot myself. And, as I figured, the hardest part was removing the rear view mirror. In fact I cracked the windshield at the mirror trying to remove it. So, you will need a special tool for your vehicle or a professional take off the mirror. That's not Onstar or Crutchfield fault, of course. I had to add a couple feet to each wire when connecting the 3 wires (ground, ignition & power) to the corresponding wires between the aftermarket head unit and factory radio connector. I did forget to connect the rechargeable backup battery and, after install, and had to get (torx or allen, can't remember) wrench behind the mirror to get to the battery and that was a little tricky. After install, I asked an Onstar rep to diagnose the red light and caution light together and they said the battery wasn't connected. I thought I had connected something wrong. So don't forget to connect the backup battery before install! I really like having Onstar for road side assistance and quick medical response. It is missing a couple features of factory Onstar but I'm very happy with it. I would have given 5 stars had the mirror had auto-dimming and map lights and compass. If you forget your mobile phone or it is out of reach (say it gets out of reach in an accident) then Onstar can be a life saver. Pros: Road side assistance. Medical response with no button (crash) or one button press. Forget or can't reach mobile phone. Bluetooth hands free for mobile phone. Cons: No auto-dimming with mirror. No map lights with mirror.
Onstar FMV Mirrow Written By WC, South Jersey on Thursday, June 19, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product. It works well thus far and is very convenient for Bluetooth calling. Very comforting to know that help is only the push of a button away. Pros: Convenient and very easy to use. Cons: Speaker/audio quality is not as good as I expected.
Works Great Written By Will E., Gillman Honda, San Benito, Texas on Monday, June 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The unit works great. My customer bought a '14 Honda CR-V, and specifically asked about getting OnStar installed on their vehicle. I had heard that it was possible, so I found out about the Crutchfield website. I ordered the parts, and the representatives there were very helpful. They even followed-up to make sure I had ordered the correct parts (I hadn't). After recieving the parts and the install card, the rest went smoothly. The installer was very friendly and helpful. After all was said and done, My customer was very happy. Now that I know how quick and painless the procedure is, I can offer it again to my clients.
Works Great Written By Kathy, Lake Worth, Fl on Tuesday, June 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) No Hassle Instillation, works great Pros: Gave me the opportunity to have OnStar without the Caddi Cons: Doesn't work through the radio like with a Caddi.
Dale Written By On-Star FMV, Rochester, NY on Tuesday, June 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) For those who don't know, On-Star FMV mirror can NOT unlock your vehicle for you with or with out the app.. It is strictly a stand alone mirror with no connection to your power locks or starter. With an On-Star subscription, On-Star will send, when requested, a lock smith or service professional to aide you. Pros: good price pleasant digital female interactive voice mirror is larger than my stock mirror clear hands-free Blue tooth connectivity to my cellphone possible insurance discounts Turn by turn directions with subscription easy to connect - three wires (ground, key and bat. power) hi quality external microphone day/night flip lever Cons: No connection to vehicle diagnostics like "In-Drive" No map lights or b/u monitor available
onstar is on point Written By Dewayne, San Diego, CA on Wednesday, May 21, 2014 This product is very reliable. I have locked my keys in the car once. since I have the mobile app I was able to unlock my car. Save time and money instead of a lock smith. Pros: VERY DEPENDABLE Cons: NONE
OnStarFMV is AOK Written By S Poe, Peoria, AZ on Friday, May 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had OnStar in several GM vehicles and enjoyed the peace of mind and the hands-free phone opportunity it provided. This was especially important while traveling the mountains and sparsely populated areas where there are no cellphone towers. The OnStar phone works great. Knowing that someone is there to answer calls for help is also a plus. While, as it is installed in a non-Gm vehicle, it doesn't give the regular diagnostics report that come monthly with the factory installed version, this does everything else I ask. It is easy to use and the InstallCard I purchased here worked just like it was supposed to...after I called the 1-800 number due to the first chosen installer's failure to respond. They set up another local installer (less than 10 miles from home) and he did a great job at no extra cost. Pros: OnStar piece of mind...knowing they will respond in emergencies, the hands-free calling with minutes purchased from OnStar, and the ease of installation and operation. Cons: The OnStar service itself should be discounted a bit, since this FMV version does NOT give the same services as the factory installed type.
OnStar FMV Written By BS, Scottsdale Az on Monday, April 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) What I needed rite on price and rite on time. What else do you need?
OnStar FMV Written By Anonymous, Webster, TX on Saturday, April 05, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Works great. Pros: Same quality as factory. Cons: Can't get diagnostic feature like on factory-installed GM cars; Just a bit "cheaper-looking" than factory-installed, also.
onstar FMV Written By Dave, Martinsville, Il on Tuesday, April 01, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) found out battery back up wasn't connected at factory Pros: works good Cons: had to take back to installer to get it fixed

peace of mind Written By KenS, Clarkston,MI on Monday, March 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I like the safty aspect of being able to use the emergency button as I work in Detroit. Onstar will aslo contact you if you get in an accident. I also like the bluetooth and the ability to send a turn by turn route directly from mapquest or google as I don't want another unit I have to update and maintain. The voice prompts work well when using virutal advisor the FMV unit works well with my Samsung Galaxy III it uses the same commands you can use with the any blutooth headset. I also had a live advisor send me a turn by turn route to an Itialian resturant at a near location by with good reviews. and the advisor made a reservation at a restuarant for me as well. Pros: Bluetooth syncs with phone perfectly. You can also buy prepaid minutes if you forget your phone. If you get in an accident and are unconcious Onstar can direct emergency vehicles to you. Cons: Have to get it installed professionally. Turn by turn routing is more money.
peace of mind Written By mike, upstate New York on Friday, February 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I think that all car show have it. My wife goes to work very early in the morning and in some of the worst weather. The fact that she has help by a push of the button or in the event of a crash is great. The installer did a great job. The call quality is super and clear as can be. If your love ones are on the road this is a must have. Pros: work so well Cons: none
works great; install was smooth Written By David20817, Bethesda, MD on Saturday, January 25, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Added Onstar FMV for my Camry Hybrid 2008. Wanted safety features as daughter starts to drive. She likes the idea as well. I was surprised how well the navitation works even without any integration to a screen based GPS Nav. Like the safety features and having easy roadside assistance should the teen need help. Pros: usual onstar safety features; nice aftermarket package, well designed; customer service very good both at Crutchfield and Onstar. Cons: Because its aftermarket some features just cant' be there which is understandable, door unlock for example. But for what it is and the price, it is great.
OnStar FMV Written By RodN, Downey, CA on Saturday, January 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the second OnStar FMV I've had installed on my vehicles when it was not available from the factory. Previously I had two vehicles that had factory OnStar, so obviously I'm a fan of OnStar. I particularly like being able to speak with a "real" person unlike the "911 Assist" I have in my 2014 Ford Fiesta which makes contacts via my cell phone. In this case I feel OnStar (whether factory or MFV) is more reliable in case of an accident. Pros: I like having the option to place a call using minutes I purchased as a backup to my cell (which is connected by Bluetooth to my cars entertainment system), as well as having a separate phone number assigned to the car in case I didn't have my cell with me or cell reception is poor. I like the fact that if your car is stolen it can be tracked using the GPS in the OnStar FMV. The total cost for my OnStar FMV purchased from Crutchfields was $110 which included installation. Cons: The mirror is quite heavy. One FMV fell off several times until I was directed to a glass shop that installs windshields. With turns and directions you get verbal directions only. With my 2011 Chevy Cruze, even without the factory navigation, I would get arrows and numerical distance reminders on the display screen of the radio which definitely a useful addition to the verbal instructions. The doors cannot be unlocked locked remotely as with the factory installation
On star mirror Written By Bob, Clovis NM 88101 on Monday, December 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The mirror was delivered on time Pros: I am really impressed with the mirror and what it does. I really like the Bluetooth . I likes the way I could program all my favorites and the ease in which it is to call them. Cons: No cons
excellent product for excellent price Written By david v, United States on Sunday, December 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Pros: Bluetooth works without onstar being active Cons: ON star charges too much
Smart Move. Written By BonnieR, Gloucester NC on Friday, November 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Well made product. Audio is clear and consise, Easy to read instructions of use, I am recomending this product to my closest of friends. Crutchfield has a good reputation, and now I know why.
1 Year Update Written By StPeteBch_Prof, St Pete Beach, FL on Tuesday, November 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a 1 year+ update on the OnStar FMV. In retrospect, this was likely one of the best purchases for my vehicle. I still have not signed up for OnStar services, but if needed, I can buy cellular minutes and have an extra car phone for a reasonable price. The speaker (on the back of the mirror) is loud enough without distortion. The microphone picks up my voice well (and my 9 year old daughter from the back seat). Making calls from a bluetooth iPhone connection is as easy as two words "Call Home". This is also after loading several well used numbers into the FMV memory, but the mirror automatically tries to connect to the active phone and does not try to use its internal phone. In the entire year that I have used this, I have not had one dropped bluetooth connection while my phone has been in the car (iPhone 4s). Siri also works, but you have to press OnStar button, say "Voice" to FMV and wait a few seconds while it connects to the phone. You can also listen and send text messages via FMV/SIRI without taking your eyes off the road, or both hands off the wheel. These days, many car stereos have much more interactivity with your smartphone than this (such as Ford's SYNC), but since I got this as a replacement rearview mirror as well as hand-free calling, this fits the bill. I would buy again especially for an older car that does not have hand-free. Only a couple cons but are fairly minor and not much different than you would find in a OnStar equipped GM vehicle with OEM. Pros: Easy install. 1 year and going strong. Does what it is supposed to and the option of a OnStar support as well as cellular service is a nice option. Don't let the price make you look elsewhere, the bluetooth hands-free is worth it and I got a new mirror for my vehicle. Cons: May need an additional mounting bracket (foreign cars). Indicator lights surrounding the mirror are slightly annoying during night driving. Dimming is by FMV presets (5 brightness levels, but none that turn off lights.) Also, several lights such as the "warning" light (triangle with exclamation mark) will not go away until you sign up for a OnStar subscription. If this unit could be turned into a Wifi hub with 4G data service in addition to voice, I would install in all my vehicles.
On Star Written By Anonymous, Tomahawk, WI on Wednesday, November 06, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) So far seems as advertised, works well, installation was inexpensive and fast.
FMV Written By Fox, TN on Thursday, October 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Yes this is a quick and easy way to up grade your Onstar System. When I think of the the word upgrade I think of what I am adding not losing. I lost the compass and temperature display in my mirror. I know to some that's not lot but it is very helpful. Pros: Easy to Installed Cons: No full time Temperature and compass display.
OnStar FMV Written By Geo, Flagler Beach, FL on Wednesday, July 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Product seems to have all of the functionality as advertised. The installer completed the installation in less than 30 minutes. Pros: Most of the OnStar features for General Motors autos for other manufacturer autos. Cons: You loss some functionality of the orginal manufacturer's rear view mirror, but these losses may be offset with additional after market products.

OnStar® FMV Written By Bob A., fredericksburg, va. on Saturday, June 22, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) easy connectivity to the mirror, a great way to get the benefits of onstar without owning a GM product. Roadside assistance, alert onstar of a accident in your area..or if you are in one. run out of gas, dead battery..locked out, they will send someone to help even if your vehicle has 300k miles,all for a small monthly fee. easy install, I upgraded an older analog system on my escalade. analog onstar system...
Good purchase for replacement mirror Written By SPB_Prof, St Pete Beach, FL on Sunday, October 07, 2012 Installed this mirror in older, first series ML class SUV. Two prior auto-dimming mirrors failed (due to the extreme Florida sun heat and reflective window shades). The price for the mirror with built-in blue-tooth is fair even if you choose not to use the OnStar subscription. The speaker is sufficiently loud at highway speeds and the microphone appears to pick up voice commands well. There is sufficient length of wire to mount the microphone anywhere across the top front of the vehicle. I have not yet had complaints from callers about hollow or distant sounds. With the separately purchased mount adapter kit ("cam mount-to-universal"), the installation was very straight forward. Two wires spliced into the overhead console (accessory & ground from the previous powered mirror) and the third wire spliced into a permanent power source down the driver-side pillar. The supplied wires are more than long enough to run down to the floor panel on either side of the vehicle. Both permanent and accessory power wires include in-line 10 or 15 amp fuses. This is not an auto-dimming mirror, but the manual level is invisible (straight-back) from below when in the up position. For $25, installation can be completed by a professional, but if you can install your own stereo, this is a snap. I am thinking of upgrading my daughters older Wrangler as the hands-free calling is easy: button push, say "Bluetooth", "Voice", "Call Home" . . . on an iPhone. Pros: Simple install, loud speaker, effective microphone, button and bluetooth calling sequencing is easy. Stores multiple (5 I think) bluetooth pairings. Sufficient wiring to connect to power and ground source. Backup mobile phone with subscription. Unit is transferrable to different vehicle (if vehicle is sold) but requires reinstallation. Worth the price for a new rear-view mirror. Replacement CIPA or Gentex auto-dimming generally cost more. Inexpensive hands-free alternative. Cons: Wish there was a way to dim notification lights above mirror panel ALL the way down. Subscription runs from $19/mo or $199/year and up with navigation support - seems like a good value, but with BT hands free radio, GPS built-in, and ubiquitous smart phones, this may be a redundant service.
OnStar FMV Written By Clif, Charleston, OR on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this unit for my wife, I haven't installed it as yet, as it is a gift. I have been using OnStar for several years with no complaints, works well and quickly, service is always friendly and polite. Knowing that it has special features to protect her is a mind saver. Pros: Peace of mind, inexpensive, dependable. Cons: Should have bought a GM.
Don't Buy! Written By secondtimemom, Des Moines, IA on Sunday, September 16, 2012 It pains me to write this because I used to love Onstar. I almost bought a Traverse instead of my minivan becuase I loved Onstar so much. Enter the mirror... It took over 8 weeks of calling them once or twice a week to get the before the mirror started working. Install wasn't an issue, but when we pushed the button to get directions they would say that we needed to activate. When we asked for a timeline for when we should expect the problem to be fixed they said that there were so many people with the activation issue that they couldn't give us a timeline. Eventually the mirror was activated, but this week was the last straw. After being billed multiple times for service even during times that the service wasn't working when I pushed the button for directions they said that the car was deactivated. We are done. Have delt with enough frustration. I wish I had never signed up for Onstar. Cons: Took 8 weeks to activate. Worked for a little while. Now it doesn't work at all.
Great product, worth it just for bluetooth Written By Shamus, Henderson, NV on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this unit not for the OnStar but for the bluetooth capability, you don't need to activate OnStar service to use just the bluetooth function. I bought it with free shipping and install included. You could easily pay as much for a nice visor bluetooth in your car. This integrates a microphone nicely near your head and everyone I have spoke to through it said that I sound excellent. I wish the speaker quality could be just a little better, but otherwise this is perfect. Its nice to see all the extra little buttons light up at night, and the option to add On Star service later if I want to. Go for it!
Very poor product and customer support Written By jchasp, Knoxville, TN on Monday, June 25, 2012 I've had OnStar on a 2002 Saab 9-5, and my 2012 Chevy Sonic. Neither the factory installed OnStar, or FMV work as promised. Whenever I press the 'OnStar' button, I must wait for the, "...next available representative." I use it mainly for Turn-by-Turn navigation, which it rarely gets right. Either the directions don't get downloaded to my vehicle, or they don't get me anywhere close to the desired location. And, the closest that it's ever gotten to my vehicle is 25 yards! By then, I've passed the turn, and OnStar doesn't re-route, but instead tells me that it will resume when I return to the intended route! Also, the vehicle diagnostics give variable results regarding oil life and tire pressure compared to the car's info display, and the RemoteLink App on my phone. Google Maps and Navigation works much better. Save your money. Use your smartphone! There are even apps for crash response for smart phones, now! Pros: Honestly can't think of any. Cons: Plain doesn't work. Turn-by-Turn navigation never has gotten me to my destination.Must ALWAYS wait for the "next available representative". Vehicle diagnostics are incorrect. Doesn't recognize voice commands. Is only accurate to within 25 yards when sitting still (further if you're moving!)
Easy to install, well-built product. Written By B N, Seattle, WA on Tuesday, January 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The hardware is nice looking and well-built, and the OnStar service is of course excellent. Install was pretty easy: 1) three wires: yellow (battery), red (ignition), black (ground), 2) thread the microphone wire under your headliner and place the mic near the driver's head, 3) open the back plate under the phillips screw and connect the backup battery, 4) if your current mirror does not mount to the glass, you will need to glue a "button" onto your windshield - the button and glue are at any parts store, and let the glue dry 48 HOURS before hanging the mirror, don't cut corners on the dry time or it will just fall off. You'll need a star wrench to clamp it down onto the button once everything's dry, then press the OnStar button to activate service and you're done! Pros: The bluetooth handsfree is very clear and works well, even in my SUV on the highway. Pairing the phone was easy as, like all OnStar functions, it was completely led by clear voice prompts. It's an excellent device that gives an extra safety factor in a vehicle that's carrying people you care about at an affordable price point, and added a little modern convenience to my older vehicle. Cons: I wish the mirror was auto-dimming.
OnStar Written By Anonymous, Briagantine, NJ on Sunday, January 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) OK, so far, I guess. However, I must admit that I am more than a little disappointed that the OnStar FMV doesn't do all of the things that a factory installed unit does. For example, the FMV model won't unlock your door if you accidentally leave your keys inside. You can call OnStar and they'll put you in touch with a locksmith, but that will probably take hours. Also, the factory installed unit lets you seek a diagnostics check of your vehicle by simply calling OnStar and asking for one. Want one for your vehicle with OnStar FMV? Fuggedaboudit! I suppose there's fine print somewhere that I should have read more closely, but didn't. Still. Also, be alert to what you're doing when you purchase minutes for your hands free calling. Ask about all of the purchase options, not just the ones that they offer you. To those who are considering OnStar FMV....caveat emptor!
works like the factory cars Written By Pat l, Berwick La on Sunday, January 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) this was bought for my mother as a gift The onstar works just like the one in my car from factory I have no regrets on buying this for her Pros: work like is from factory Cons: none
Makes The Wife Happy !! Written By Kevin, Norwalk, CT on Wednesday, December 07, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) We have OnStar in our 05 Chevy and love everything about it. Put this in an 05 Jeep Liberty which my son is driving across the state and back. Now my wife can sleep easier - always worried about a breakdown. It was really easy to install - did it myself and I think I did a better, neater job. Set it up and linked the 2 accounts. Got a great discount on phone minutes! OnStar rep (Joann) was fantastic. She went through all the features. My son loves the Bluetooth feature and figured everything out in seconds. Got the best deal here at Crutchfield. Was going to see if my Chevy dealership could install it and they knew nothing about it (?). A great present for someone you love! Pros: Bluetooth link, Turn-by-Turn Navigation and Automatic Crash Response Cons: Could have used a little more glue in the small kit - didn't quite fill to the top. Installation instructions were so-so. Understand they want you to get it professionally installed so you don't set off the Air Bags but if you know your way around car wiring, you should be okay.
Very Nice Unit, Works Well Written By Chris, Lexington, KY on Wednesday, September 07, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very professional unit. Well built and looks great in my Corolla. I installed it myself and I have to say I probably did a better job than a professional would have done. The navigation is very accurate, the bluetooth works well with the embedded voice commands, and the OnStar hands-free calling is good to have in case your cell battery dies. Connection with an advisor is very quick. Supposedly, the built-in cell phone is quite a bit more powerful than a handheld cell. I didn't give it 5 stars because OnStar reps keep commenting that they're not up to speed on it. I'm wondering why they would release it without training their advisors or their tech support if this is such a landmark product. I have been given inaccurate information during a few calls. I will say they have been professional and certainly tried to be helpful. Also, the install instructions are missing a few important details and instructions only come with the mount adapters, so if your vehicle doesn't need an adapter, you don't get instructions with the actual unit. I read the review about the guy with the intermittent unit. I strongly suspect some of the wiring was not properly connected. A "semi-loose" wire (power or ground) can cause intermittent operation. Could be the unit, but I doubt it. This is why I trust my own installations more. Anyway, great unit, but I'm still on trial with it. Also wish the monthly fee was lower as I understand it's reputably very pricey.
Buy this for your car! Written By Clutch, Phoenix, AZ on Friday, September 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product. Installed it myself, just three wires to connect, the hardest part was finding a good ground with all the plastic they put in cars today! Don't forget to connect the internal battery before mounting the mirror, or you'll be taking it down, as I did! Other than that, activation was fairly easy and the OnStar gal was wonderful. BTW, the Bluetooth sync with my cell phone is fantastic and was easy to set up and use. This is my second OnStar and I can't imagine being without it! Thanks, Crutchfiled, for having the best price around.
Awesome & Comforting Device! Written By LarryG, Northern VA on Monday, August 29, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this for my twin boy's 2001 Honda Accord that they will be driving to High School to give both of them and my wife and I peace of mind. Works great and I installed it myself in less that 2 hours...very easy to mount and wire. Audio quality is excellent and I highly recommend! The staff at OnStar is friendly and ready to assist at the press of a button.
Love It Written By cmp2491, Boynton Beach, FL on Sunday, August 28, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great delivery service. Had installed and just love it. Easy activation, easy to use. So glad I purchased this from you.
On star mirror FMV Written By James w, Pasadena Texas on Thursday, August 18, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) There are no directions for the do it your self people. Not one thing shows where the internal battery is located. It was up to me to figure out why the error light stayed on. Calling on star was only a little help. Absolutly no wiring instructions. Thank goodness I have a lot of mechanical skills. You have to take the back off and plug in the battery for it to work. Also I don't understand why it has no compass. I had to improvise to keep my compass in my F 250. Other wise works Good.
Makes me feel at ease. Written By bobiii, Palmdale, CA on Thursday, August 18, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I got to say that I bought the unit in order to feel at ease. My daughter just started driving and will be driving to a college that is about 30 miles away. I decided to have it professionally installed at Best Buy since it was close to home and felt uneasy by the lack of instructions on how to remove the existing mirror. It only took two hours for the installation. The activation was another story. It took more than an hour since I had to give them all my information since I guess Best Buy hadn't done it. It took so long that they gave 30 minutes of calling on the built in cell phone. That made up for it! So far, it's working great. I now have my daughter trained on hands-free calling since I was able to pair her phone in less than 10 minutes. All in all, it was a great purchase and Crutchfield saved me money!

This is by far the best nursing tank out there! I wish more colors were offered when I bought it a while back. It's so flattering and I love that when you flip it down to nurse there is another layer with a small opening for baby to latch through. Makes nursing out on the go very easy. |

After trying vests from a few other retailers, these are the best I've found. The fabric is thick enough to hide nursing pads, top layer stays clipped securely, shelf bra provides good support and the split points in the bra are in just the right spot and provide great coverage! |

I'm so glad LXDE exists now, though. A lot faster than Xfce.

- "Let's teach these would be tough guys what it means to be a tough guy!"
- ―Toni Cipriani on the Triads.
Antonio "Toni" Cipriani is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series, appearing as a main character in Grand Theft Auto III and the protagonist of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. He is a made man in the Leone Family, having risen through the ranks in 1998 and becoming a capo, and helps run Momma's Restaurante with his mother in Saint Mark's. Michael Madsen voices Toni Cipriani in GTA III, having also appeared in Reservoir Dogs, whilst Daniel Mastrogiorgio voices him in GTA Liberty City Stories, having also appeared in The Lost Don.
[show]Character history
Toni Cipriani was born in 1968 to Ma Cipriani and an unnamed father, who was a member of one of the city's mafia families. He lived with his parents in their restaurant and later became involved in Liberty City's criminal underworld, joining the mafia to follow on his father.
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (circa 1998)
In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Toni Cipriani assumes the role of the playable character and protagonist of the game. GTA: Liberty City Stories explores Toni's history and exploits in 1998, three years prior to the events in GTA III.
Toni Cipriani left Liberty City and decided to lay low after killing a made man for Salvatore Leone. He finally returned to the city in 1998, ready to continue his life of organized crime. A grateful Salvatore Leone gives Toni jobs, but because he was out of town for so many years, other members of the Leone Family have had the time to move up in the hierarchy. Salvatore was forced to strip Toni of his rank and give the position to Vincenzo Cilli during his leave of absence. Toni now finds himself as a low-ranking goon that has to once again gain favor with the Don, in order to secure a leadership position in the family. Toni however works for Salvatore's wife Maria Latore who later on, develops feelings for Toni and has him to do her bidding, and tells him she loves him, but Toni does not feel the same way. However after learning Toni "has no money", she cuts ties with Toni, reminding him that she is Salvatore's girl and not to hit on her. Toni appeared in the game to be much thinner than his appearance in GTA III. Much of his efforts in achieving his goal of reclaiming his place in the Leone hierarchy include battling two other Mafia families, the Forelli's and the Sindacco's via several means, allowing him to be "made" halfway through the storyline after killing the Liberty City mayor, Roger C. Hole. After being made, his mother calls off a hit she had put on her son. Later, Toni works for millionaire and mayor candidate, Donald Love and fights the Forelli's in order to help the Leone's own City Hall while protecting Donald. Donald Love is eventually found to be in league with Salvatore and Toni, which makes him unfit for the office in people's eye. After Miles O'Donovan has been elected mayor, Salvatore Leone is arrested on several crime charges, forcing Toni to pose as a lawyer named Lionel to take jobs from the police station where Salvatore is imprisoned.
Donald Love, in a stressful phone call, says that he has many propositions for him. Upon arriving at the flophouse, Donald Love says that he has plans that will make both Toni and himself rich again and orders Toni to kill real estate businessman, and Love's former mentor, Avery Carrington. Toni and Donald steal Avery's plans and bomb expert 8-Ball is paid to give them explosives in order to blow up Fort Staunton, causing the Forelli Family to lose a lot of influence. Toni is called by a mysterious woman, Toshiko Kasen, and asked to fight the local Yakuza organization. After Toni kills her husband Kazuki, a remorseful Toshiko commits suicide and a panicked Donald Love asks Toni for some help to take him to Francis International Airport as the Colombian Cartel are attacking to steal Avery's plans. Toni gets Love to the airport safely and Love brings with him the corpses of Avery Carrington and Ned Burner.
Salvatore is eventually released from jail, after being escorted to the courthouse by Toni, due to the Sicilian Mafia wanting Salvatore dead. After being released, Toni and Salvatore go to see the mayor, Miles O'Donovan, to get his charges dropped. However, Massimo Torini, a high-ranking member of the Sicilian Mafia, had the mayor kidnapped. Toni and Salvatore chase Torini and rescue the Mayor from Portland Rock, killing Torini in the process.
Grand Theft Auto III (circa 2001)
By 2001, Toni has become one of the highest-ranking members of the Leone Family, behind only Salvatore Leone. The LCPD had attempted to connect Toni and Salvatore throughout 2001; however, they fail to link them beyond his mother's restaurant. Salvatore's son, Joey, introduces the game's protagonist, Claude, to Toni. Toni hires Claude to attack the Triads (Leone Family enemies), including trying to get protection money from Mr. Wong's Laundromat, destroying some Triad fish vans and the Triad owned fish factory in Callahan Point. Toni also introduces Claude to Salvatore Leone.
In 2001, Toni still lives with his mother and is frequently been seen in his family-run restaurant, where he provides Claude with jobs. The constant nagging from his mother about him not being able to be like his father and failing to meet up to her expectations had forced him to call the local chat radio station, Chatterbox FM, and complain about his mother's constant bickering. After Salvatore Leone has been killed, it is believed that Toni will take control of the Leone Family simply because Joey Leone, Salvatore's son, hasn't exactly done much to help the family.Personality
Toni's behavior in scenes of the game suggest that he is very loyal, but is very easy to irritate (of course, this may be in part of that he is surrounded by such strange people, for instance, Maria, Joseph Daniel O'Toole and Donald Love). When he is angry, Toni is capable of practicing extremely violent acts (like using an axe to kill Giovanni Casa and cut his body into small pieces), but he also seems to feel remorseful at times (like when he goes to the Cathedral to make a confession). However, like many other GTA protagonists, he too shows very little hesitation in killing anyone standing in his way and occasionally mocks them. Toni also believes that people should show proper respect to their parents, seen when he berates Vincenzo Cilli for receiving oral sex from a prostitute named Cheryl while talking to his mother, and how he desperately tries to please his mother. Like Claude, he will give drivers the finger if a vehicle stands in front of him and tries to mow him down.
Toni seems to be very loyal to his bosses (for example, he saves Salvatore from being crushed in a car which the Sindaccos used to kill Salvatore). However, after completing the story-line mission "The Sicilian Gambit", during the ending cutscene, Toni seems to be a little troubled and hesitant for not being paid by Salvatore the couple of million dollars he promised.
In GTA: Liberty City Stories, Toni is significantly thinner than his depiction in GTA III; this is commented or criticized by his mother, Maria and Salvatore Leone, with his mother and Salvatore in particular commenting about him not being fed well. By GTA III, Toni is fatter and has aged considerably in the three years that have passed.
It is possible that Toni has ended his crime life by 2001, as shown as he starts working with his mother in his restaurant and no longer committing major crimes in the city.
Murders Committed
- Unnamed rival mafia capo - Killed in orders of Salvatore Leone, resulting in Toni going into hiding for 4 years.
- Dan Sucho - Killed to show Ma that Toni is better than him.
- Giovanni Casa - Killed for stopping to pay protection money to Ma.
- Cedric Fotheringay - Killed for beating up Maria up.
- Vincenzo Cilli- Killed for setting Toni up in the beginning and for trying to kill him.
- R.C. Hole - Killed in orders of Salvatore Leone for trying to accuse him for all the crimes in the city.
- Faith W. - Killed for refusing to give an interview to the Liberty Liberty Tree Newspaper.
- Black Lightman - Killed for refusing to give an interview to the Liberty Tree Newspaper.
- DB-P - Killed for refusing to give an interview to the Liberty Tree Newspaper.
- Paulie Sindacco - Killed on order of Salvatore Leone for getting him in jail and to end the Sindacco family.
- Avery Carrington- Killed in orders of Donald Love to get his Construction Plans.
- Ned Burner - Killed in orders of Donald Love for wittnessing him and Toni killing Avery Carrington.
- Kazuki Kasen - Killed for trying to kill Toni and Toshiko Kasen.
- Massimo Torini - Killed for kiddnapping the Mayor and trying to take over the city.
- Toni Cipriani is likely a homage to Tony Soprano, the main character from The Sopranos. Aside from their names, both characters also share ongoing problems with their mothers, who also ordered hits on them. They also both would later go on to have weight problems.
- Toni Cipriani, (along with Salvatore Leone, Luigi Goterelli, Maria Latore, 8-Ball, and Joey Leone, in that order) appears on posters for the film Badfellas in GTA III. This is a reference to the film Goodfellas, which Frank Vincent (Salvatore Leone's voice actor) and Ray Liotta (Tommy Vercetti's voice actor) starred in. The posters can be found at Luigi's Sex Club 7 in the Red Light District of Portland Island, Liberty City.
- An Easter egg in Grand Theft Auto IV suggests that Toni Cipriani died after 2001. However, this is not been considered canon with the 3D Universe.
- Toni is the only protagonist to give another protagonist missions (namely, Claude).
- Toni kills Avery Carrington, one of Tommy Vercetti's former employers.
- Toni may have been a loan shark in the past, as he reminds J.D O'Toole of the money he owes in Snuff and Giovanni Casa tells Toni that he will pay him "the money I owe" in Dead Meat.
- Toni appears in the third most storyline missions in the GTA series with 77 missions. (Carl appears in 104 and Niko appears in 98).
- Toni is the only protagonist who can be heard speaking on the radio, as he calls Chatterbox FM to complain about his mother during GTA III.
- Toni said his own name as "Toni Ki-priani" in the mission The Pick-Up in GTA III as the usual "Toni Ci-priani". This is a simple mistake by the voice actor, Michael Madsen.
These are Toni's quotes, while in free roam.

This puzzle must be in Top 3 of the most difficult Cast puzzles! It is my first acquaitence with the Cast puzzles - several years ago, one roommate of mine got it for his birthday. I tried to separate it, but was not able to. He managed to do it and put it back together. And now, I bought it for myself and disassembled it by chance. Then, when putting it back together, I saw that I miss something, so I tried to apply logic by looking at the assembled version (its back side, as depicted on the picture above). Thus, I checked every two pieces how they should come together. After that, assembling was a matter of precision and slow movements. It is a beautiful puzzle, when assembled. Too bad the pieces look like "6" - I had an idea about a similar puzzle, but this one is enough for torturing (the best comment on this page is by "Scott" - I can say no more about the pain Vortex can cause).

All I can say is, this is a fantastic nightmare of a puzzle. Beautiful, and extremely humbling. I suspect that over time it could cause brain damage. Be careful.

This is a puzzle that will take you on a journey. Took me weeks, although I have to say the "think crest" hint was not at all helpful. Vortex is one of life's memorable treasures, and i would give it six stars if the ratings allowed it. An adventure, a challenge, and a work of rare art and beauty.

Obviously my favourite this far. This puzzle has all I want from a puzzle: supercool design, no force needed, extrem difficulty (I solved about 15 Hanayama's this far, and I think Vortex beats any other by at least two level), one needs ideas to solve it, but logic helps a lot (especially when putting together). Simply love it.

Defiantly one of my favorites. love the look. love the dimensions of this puzzle. A lot of fun to solve.

Wonderful, it took me an hour to break it apart. Entangling this thing back was really the most fun part, I expected it to last for days, but surprisingly, it only took about 40 min, maybe because I made a note of the final key entanglement position, just before the complete breakup. It is really one of the best Hanayamas.

I am usually pretty good at these sorts of puzzles, solving most in a a few minutes to an hour. This one has humbled me. Taking it apart was trivial, but getting it back together... OUCH! Day 2, still trying (and doing my best to avoid downloading the solution).

What's the deal with the Vortex? You can take it apart, but good luck putting it back together! What's the deeeeal with that?
On Thursday April 16th timeless wrote,
This puzzle is exceedingly difficult. Unlike others, once I got it apart, putting it together was easier than pulling it apart for me. Probably because each time I got further along in the solution, I would backtrack to make sure I understood what I did. I really, really REALLY like this puzzle. But I did hate it for a day or two!

This puzzle is absolutely beautiful! It took me a good while to figure how to take it apart, but since I spent so much time figuring out how to take it apart I was able to put it back together when I finally figured out the last step. I really enjoyed this one! FIVE STARS!!!

Best mouse pad
Reviewed by morrismiller23. Review Posted 19/07/2012
This is the most comfortable mousepad I ever had. The ability to attach the clip to the desk makes it that much more comfortable. Investing in a good mousepad is a very smart idea.

The steps going up to the second floor lead up from the front hallway and as the banister descends it ends at this newel post. For years, back before payments were automated on credit cards, the newspaper carrier would come by weekly to collect payment. One of my parents would pay him and in turn he'd give them a receipt from a tear sheet. Every rectangle they got represented a week's payment. Sometimes they'd pay for two weeks; sometimes four. Then they'd take their tiny little rectangles, each one only about a centimeter by a centimeter-and-a-half wide, and leave them absentmindedly on top of the newel post.
See that tiny gap between the cap of the newel post and the molding? It was just wide enough to push a newspaper receipt through, and don't ask me why, but I was compelled to push them in every time I found them lying there. It's not unlike putting a quarter in a gumball machine; pushing it through satisfies the tactile need for fulfilling a perfect fit.
You don't mess with destiny, and destiny said those newspaper receipts needed to live inside the newel post.
I was not an impish child. Why do you ask?

32 million bucks in a month?
Phoronix: Canonical Goes To Crowd-Funding For Ubuntu Edge Phone
As anticipated, Canonical announced today their Ubuntu Edge smart-phone. However, details are scarce and they don't even have the hardware specifications ironed out but are first trying to raise financing via crowd-funding...
32 million bucks in a month?
The price is ok, considering it will have ultra high-end specifications (4GB RAM, 128 GB storage...), run Android & Ubuntu Phone OS and can be used as a full PC. Very excited about this.
Also, please watch this video for the software story: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtNhlVn3ETQ
Vaporware. Like all their other "product announcements".
They should have named it "Ubuntu Miracle".
Don't tell me it's not running their shiny new Mir technology.
Can I connect a 2560x1440 screen to it?
Is it open (like a regular PC) to install any operating system I want?
Which LTE frequency bands does it support?
Does the price ($600) contain any VAT?
I want to hear stretch goals!
Seriously, what are they thinking? Ouya raised around $9 millions in 30 days. I honestley can't see this coming close to that unless Shuttleworth pitches in heavily himself.
No idea (thatd be based off the GPU.)
Says you can if you read: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ubuntu-edge and scroll near the bottom. "Will the phone receive updates after launch?"
Says it supports both LTE standards, so go look up the LTE standards and see what carriers support those.
No idea

I personally think the word "World" should be removed from the junior world meet. and just call it Junior Championships. Therefore there's no real confusion with Big Worlds.
I personally think the word "World" should be removed from the junior world meet. and just call it Junior Championships. Therefore there's no real confusion with Big Worlds.
It isn't possible to win two GP finals in one year the rules are quite clear - a skater skating in the JGP cannot perform on the senior GP and vice vera. I think i may have read (but can't recall for sure) that there is some kind of exception if the the skater is in a different discipline so e.g. one skater in a pair could compete on the Senior GP as a pair skater but take part int he JGP as a singles skater.
EDIT : I didn't see Sylvia's post and she explains it better than I have!

I think we all understand the Rules and Sylvia's post is fine.
What I should have said that it is possible for a skater to win the Junior GPFinal and the Senior Worlds.
The name Junior with its influx of Seniors is a misnomer, for me.
They can but i would think it highly unlikely that a skater would win the JGP final and senior worlds. The likelihood of a skater winning worlds and not having skated on the senior GP is pretty remote to impossible (although technically possible wihtin the age limits).
I think the main issue is about age limits. The misnomer occurs because for some reason the ISU in its inifinte wisdom itself doesn't apply the same age limit to senior comeptitions - the age to compete at senior GPs is different to worlds, therefore it is entirely possible (Mao and Yuna being examples) that you skate on the Senior GP (because you are talented and want to skate to your best potential) but are too young to go to the big senior championships (4CC/European, Olympics and Worlds) so end up back at the junior worlds despite having beaten at least some (if not all) of the podium at the last senior worlds on the senior GP.
The first step to getting it right is to make the age limits uniform (up the age for the senior GP or lower the age for the senior championships).
Then it's up to each member federation how the deal with their own affairs at home. Testing never has age limits (except maybe some of the adult tracks requiring a minimum age perhaps?) and i don't think it should. You should be encouraged to mvoe onto the next level by ability not by age necessarily. It would be unfair to keep a child prodigy down and not allow them to test senior just because they're 13 or 14.
I see no reason to change my opinion because of rules. I will continue to ask "Which Senior skater will win Junior Worlds/" when the competition is set to begin.
Trying to get back on topic...
U.S. skaters guaranteed at least 1 Senior GP assignment (skaters guaranteed 2 are noted but it's very likely quite a few others will get 2 as well):
8 men: Lysacek (2), Abbott (2), Mroz (2), Weir, Rippon, Carriere, Bradley, Mahbanoozadeh;
9 ladies: Flatt (2), Czisny (2), Zhang, Wagner, Nagasu, Gilles, Bereswill, Meissner, Cohen (Kwan could be a possible 10th IF she came back);
6 pairs: McLaughlin/Brubaker (2), Denney/Barrett (2), Inoue/Baldwin, Evora/Ladwig, Yankowskas/Coughlin, Castelli/Shnapir;
6 dance teams: Belbin/Agosto (2), Davis/White (2), Samuelson/Bates (2), Navarro/Bommentre, Chock/Zuerlein, Hubbell/Hubbell (note: Summersett/Gilles are #28 on the SP scores list).
How about Emily Hughes? I'm guessing she is not guaranteed a GP?
No. See this earlier Emily Hughes discussion thread:
Sylvia, the meeting is only four days away. How long after that before we know something? Will the entire list of GP assignments be published?
May 30th is a Saturday. I don't know if the ISU will publish the finalized full slate of GP entries right away (the same day or on Sunday) or if they will make us wait until Monday, June 1st (or later that week).
ETA: Last year the ISU published the full slate of GP entries on their site on June 14th but I can't remember if it was the same day as the selection meeting or the day after?
Last edited by Sylvia; 05-26-2009 at 08:50 PM.
Emily is #72 on the ISU Ranking list and #82 on the Seasons Best list. She has no guarantees, and because she is not in the top 75 on the Seasons Best list, she is not even qualified to receive a GP invitation. The only way she could compete in the GP was if she got a host pick to Skate America, and I don't think that is within the realm of possibility, given that she's skipped the last two Nationals and her performance at TEB 2008 was dreadful.
When one thinks of the math involved in offering GP events to skaters., one has to think about spaces available for all eligible.
of the 72 slots, the podium and 4-6 skaters will get 12 of them; the addiional skaters for the host countries will get 6 of them. Of the 54 remaining slots, how many are left at the top 75 list? and will they all make it?
Just thinking of Emile's chances.
Add also the 6 skaters who finished 7th-12th at Worlds who get two events each, which drops the remaining slots to 42.
There are certainly enough skaters in the top 75 on the SB list to fill those slots. Nearly all the skaters in the top 12 at Worlds and in the top 24 on the ISU Ranking list are also in the top 24 on the SB list. So that means there are almost 50 candidates for invitations, and the best of those will receive two invitations.
In any case, the ISU rules do not permit skaters who aren't in the top 75 on the SB list to get invitations, so Emily CANNOT receive an invitation from any of the other federations. Her only chance is to get a US host pick, and that is virtually impossible.
Grand Prix assignments announcement has generally come 3 to 4 days after the conclusion of the annual ISU Grand Prix Selection conference. That being the case, look for the Grand Prix event lineups to be released around June 3 or 4.
Regarding a possible Kwan invite.... today was the final day she had to accept an invitation or to let U.S.F.S. know she is interested in possibly skating in Lake Placid, but has not fully decided. In any case, U.S. Figure Skating has frequently provided their invite list of competitors with 1 or 2 TBD (To Be Determined) for U.S. skaters taking part. In reality Kwan may have several months more to make up her mind. This senario is most likely, if we do not see her name and a TBD listed instead.
I fully expect to see Cohen and one other name and a TBD listed.

Going to wear this to my bridal shower
Beautiful dress!
Can't wait to wear it to my bridal shower
June 21, 2013
Requires Patience
I usually wear a 10, but I found that the 8 fit me better. The stitching around the waist is really tight, so I had issues getting it around my hourglass body. Once it was on, the fit was absolutely perfect, which is why I kept it.
June 10, 2013
So chic!
I love this dress! It can be worn at a formal occasion, but can also be dressed down to wear to work. I'm usually between a size 4 or a 6 in dresses, so I ordered a size 6, but had to get it taken in at the bust and waste area (to the seam), since it's a little large in the bust area. But, it's a very flattering fit, and looks very chic on.
May 20, 2013
Love It!
This was the perfect dress for my wedding dress. This was not my first marriage and I am in my 60's and needed a simple yet elegant dress. I wore it with a thin red belt and red high heels and got wonderful compliments.
May 10, 2013
Picture perfect
I bought this dress for family pictures and was very happy with the turn out. The seam down the front in the middle did not show up on the pictures at all. It looked pretty, not stark white, more like a creamy white. I got many complements on it.
I wore the dress again in Chicago for a night out, and actually went back to the hotel to change because it was too uncomfortable. I had a big meal, ate way too much and the dress does not give at all. Something to consider. It runs a little small, I usually wear a size 4, but went up to a 6. I'm average build, 5'7', 135 lbs.
May 9, 2013
Love this dress
I am getting married on a beach, informal ceremony and then have a wedding dress for my reception. This dress was absolutely perfect for my beach wedding ceremony. It's absolutely adorable and fits my normal dress size in most dresses, size 6. I am curvy and have 34d top and the dress fits perfect! Good quality and love the beige fabric mixed in so the dress is not stark white. Love it
May 9, 2013
Graduation Dress
I got this dress for my graduation and it is perfect. I got it in a 0 and it fit like a glove. I am very short, and most dresses are too long on me, but this one hit just above my knees. I added a red patent belt and shoes and simple gold flower earrings, and fully expect to knock everyone off their feet onFriday.
Very beautiful dress, nice fabric. It has little gold threads in it.
May 5, 2013
Beautiful dress
I wore this dress to my goddaughter's First Communion and it was perfect! I love the lace detail and the very subtle light brown coloring in the dress.
