I thought it was interesting and well presented, and even humorous at times - his chapter-ending "morals" list always concluded with a humorous bit. The narration was good.
"The perfect audiobook"
I have listened to well over a hundred unabridged audiobooks, and I count this one as the best combination of great writing and narration. The story is beautifully written. Brown juxtaposes the beauty of rowing with the turmoil of 30's America (the Depression and Dust Bowl) and the terrifying rise of Hitler. It doesn't matter a bit that we know the ending, because this story is all about the journey: the United States' journey through its worst decade since the Civil War; Germany's descent into madness; and most compellingly, the unimaginably difficult early years of Joe Rantz, one of the heroes of "The Boat" that shocked Hitler and the world.
And Hermann's narration is absolutely perfect. Usually, in the course of listening to an unabridged audio book, I inevitably hear defects in the narration: mispronounced words, mistaken emphasis, etc. But not from Hermann. His voice, tone and pacing are perfect throughout, enhancing the already compelling material. I wish all audiobooks were done so well. (And you can bet I'm going to be looking for more books read by Hermann).
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I listened to the entire book twice already, and I can envision returning to it again in the future. It's that good.
If you've ever wondered what Steve Jobs was really like, this book is for you. Isaacson's holds nothing back in describing both the genius and the jerk that was Steve Jobs. Overall, despite the brutal honesty regarding Jobs' MANY quirks, I think the book was favorable to Jobs. I came out of it admiring him as a visionary, but also thankful that I never had to work for him.
Steve Jobs is our generation's Walt Disney: a brilliant innovator who beautifully blended art and technology while building some of the most enduring and iconic companies in human history. Other parallels to Disney: they both had complete control over their companies' direction; they were both highly visible spokesmen (even icons) for both the company and the brand; they both left behind a changed world (Disney with animation and theme parks, Jobs with the iPod/iPad/iPhone/Pixar); they were both astute businessmen in addition to being visionaries; both were pioneers in revolutionizing animation in feature films; and of course, sadly, both died too young of cancer. I've also enjoyed Disney biographies, particularly the ones, like this bio, which took an honest look at the flaws as well as the genius.
I am not a huge Apple fan but I loved this book, and I love Steve Jobs; not because of who he was but for what he did. His greatest achievements -- iPod, iPad, iPhone, and Pixar -- were all revolutionary inventions, literally creating something new out of nothing. What would be the state of portable consumer devices today without Jobs? Would we still be using clunky flip phones with atrocious software? Would we have elegant graphical interfaces on our computers or devices?
And what about family films? Would we be taking our kids to see abysmal Disney movies like Treasure Planet, rather than beautiful, inspired, emotional epics like the Toy Story trilogy and Finding Nemo?
Even for those of us who aren't "Apple people" can thank Jobs' vision for pushing our culture in the direction of beauty and quality.
This book highlights Jobs' vital role in all these revolutions. Particularly compelling are how Jobs was able to conquer both the music studios AND Eisner-led Disney in the span of a few short years. The details of those conquests are priceless, and this audiobook is worth it for those two tales alone. I also liked the details of his relationship to Bill Gates, and how it evolved through the years (hint: it was not as contentious as I'd always believed).
But there is also much more. I found myself thinking "what a jerk" one second, and "what a genious" the next -- and then quickly back to "what a jerk" again. He is a study in extremes. I came into this book not knowing WHAT I'd think of Jobs in the end given some of the shocking excerpts in the press. I thought it was a good possibility that I'd hate the guy. But Isaacson effectively shows the humanity behind the insanity, and by the end, I can honestly say I genuinely liked him. I was even a little choked up by his cancer plight. It's so sad that the pre-eminent visionary of our time was taken from us in his prime -- not unlike Walt Disney was taken from us almost 50 years ago.
So I guess in the end, Steve's impeccable taste served him well. In choosing Isaacson and giving him open access to his past, Jobs succeeded in putting out one last perfect product: a lasting image of himself that perfectly demonstrated his humanity, his deep flaws, and his enduring genius. I think he would have loved the result, and I did too.
Dylan Baker's narration is excellent. Baker has a little sarcastic twang that I think is perfect for this man, and for this material. Wise choice.
"My first Gaiman book, liked it but didn't love it"
I had not read any Gaiman before. The story was sprawling and epic, and for the most part I liked it. But I didn't love it... maybe a few too many characters ("gods") and events to digest in an audio book. I found myself drifting often, having to replay large sections.
Guidall's narration is magnificent. I am a big Guildall fan since I listened to the Stephen King Dark Tower series. His character voices are spot on without being over the top, and his tone is always perfect. For some audiobook narrators, even good ones, there are times when it's obvious that the narrator never read the text, or perhaps didn't really understand a sentence when they read it. But never with Guidall. It's as if he's telling the story, not reading it.
"Well done, though a little repetitive at times"
I don't know much about the state of Physics research, so I don't know if Smolin's complaints have merit. But in my experience observing the state of science in general, Smolin's complaints resonate.
His main beef is not with string theory *per se*, only with the pervasiveness of string theory in physics research. Sure, he has some problems with the theory itself, mainly that it has grown so large and complex that it is practically unverifiable by experimental means. But more importantly, string theory has become so popular that it has squeezed out practically every other area of research. Smolin advocates that physics departments take on more risk and start investing in more esoteric lines of research. He uses a financial analogy: venture capitalists take on a certain amount of risk KNOWING that they will lose some percentage of their investments, but that some other percentage will win big.
Smolin advocates a similar strategy for physics: more "investment" in riskier lines of research, which have a greater chance of failure, but which can also provide the next great breakthrough. Smolin thinks that too much research is vested in the "safe" string theories, and hence growth (in terms of new theories and new knowledge) has practically stalled for an entire generation of physicists.
He makes a compelling point. Very interesting listen. One complaint though: he occasionally gets repetitive in his arguments. This book could have probably been 1/3 shorter without losing anything.
"Loved it"
This book is about the death of a planet, and the birth of a family. I loved the way Brown juxtaposed his explorations of the universe with his own personal experiences building his family. It works. We see Brown the brilliant astronomer, and Brown the doting husband and father. We also see how those two roles sometimes conflicted, like when the early arrival of his beloved daughter almost jeopardized his planet discoveries.
Nicely read as well. Highly recommended.
"Good listen"
Very interesting history of the influenza epidemic, juxtaposed over the turmoil of WWI. I found the details about the flu virus, and why it is so difficult to vaccinate against, fascinating.
I usually don't like Scott Brick, but he was OK here.
"Interesting, though a little political at times"
I love the material presented in this book; the details about how the brain works down to the level of neurons was fascinating. My only complaint is that the author sometimes got too political. For example: implying that supporting certain presidential candidates is considered a "brain bug". Even if I may happen to agree with you on those particular candidates, there is no need for that kind of stuff in a book like this. All it does is cheapen the otherwise very compelling arguments.
Ironically, for an author who seems to abhor religion, his political remarks make him sound downright preachy.
Still a worthwhile listen, but it could have been so much better.
"Loved it loved it LOVED IT"
This is one of the most imaginative science fiction stories I've read. The concept is very intriguing, with a mysterious cosmic event occurring suddenly and without explanation. Wilson deftly lets the mystery unfold during the course of the novel, which is told non-linearly -- the narration jumps back and forth between past and present, as the narrator recalls events from his life.
I found the ending VERY satisfying. Throughout the book I wondered how Wilson would tie it all together, but he did so masterfully, providing an explanation that explained it all in a way that was as imaginative as the initial concept.
Nested through all this is a personal story involving a wealthy (but dysfunctional) family who played a key role in both the narrator's life and the post-spin world events. I found some of this interpersonal drama to be a little tiresome at times -- not really bad, just overdone -- but overall it did not detract from the story.
Scott Brock is not my favorite narrator (I've HATED some of his work on other books, where he was often overly dramatic) but he was good here.
"Greene is a great writer, but not a great reader"
I have read several physics books (including some written by Greene) so I have some background in the topic, but I am far from understanding it all. Greene does a very good job of making insanely complicated concepts (like multiple, folded, hidden dimensions) accessible to someone who doesn't have a Ph.D in math. He frequently uses real world analogies to bridge this gap, and even though the concepts are still daunting for a lay person, Greene makes them a little more accessible.
However, whatever his talents as a writer, Greene should leave it to professional readers to read his material. I found his voice and presentation very irritable, especially over the course of a long unabridged audio book. I almost stopped listening, it grated on me that much. Listen to a sample before downloading, and you may decide to read it instead of listening.
"I enjoy Gladwell's writings"
I know there are some who are critical of Gladwell for glossing over facts and oversimplifying conclusions, but I have enough of a brain to be able to draw my own conclusions, some of which differ from Gladwell.
For example, Gladwell stresses the role of hard work and chance in those who find great success, but I think he underemphasizes the role of talent and natural ability. Sure, hockey players in Canada have a better shot at greatness if they're born in certain months, but you still need size, speed, skills, and even competitiveness to succeed. That fact sometimes get lost in Gladwell's analysis.
Having said that, I still very much enjoyed this book, the third I've read of Gladwell's (Blink, Tipping Point). I like his style of writing (and reading)

May 4, 2015Just saw the Avengers, after being recommended the Avengers: Age of Ultron and what a ride it was, an entertaining flick that innovates the idea of a movie universe where everything comes together. Joss Whedon outdoes himself in balancing out characters' screen time and legitimizing them in a balanced approach.
May 3, 2015
May 2, 2015extremely overrated, but still enjoyable. The one thing I wish this movie has was a better villain. Loki is so stupid and boring he dragged this movie down.
May 1, 2015Superhero movies don't come any bigger than The Avengers. Joss Whedon delivers the must-see blockbuster for any serious Marvel Comcs fan. It offers enough memorable characters, sharp dialogue, spectacular special effects and impressive action to ensure multiple viewings.
Apr 26, 2015I enjoyed this movie all of the marvel movies connected to the series are entertaining. Like any other movie I felt it could have been alot better. Great cast of actors and following a great story make this movie and it does not deliver a disappointment.
Apr 24, 2015The movie was entertaining with great humour. Made me laugh a lot and good story line for the first avengers film. Wish if there where more characters in the team but its alright

Mar 9, 2015This movie was great! It was very well paced, comedic, and had a lot of action in it! Each character was developed nicely and everyone did a great job in their roll.
Jan 30, 2015I'll admit it's cheesy, but The Avengers is also insanely enjoyable, exciting, and well acted. Everyone brings their A-game, and Joss Whedon masterfully creates the nerd film of the century.
Insane fun. 9/10 -
Jan 22, 2015The Avengers is not just bad, it's boring as hell. I simply don't get the appeal for these sorts of films. A 15 minute plot and 2 hours of mindless, mind numbing action is not exactly my idea of entertainment. Might as well go into the kitchen, bang a few utensils around and use my own imagination. It's certainly not art and it's not even fun.
Jan 19, 2015Marvel's The Avengers was one of the best movies of 2012. It's a great film to be part of The Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is Beyond Fantastic! Probably the best movie that Disney and Marvel has to offer!
Jan 19, 2015DISAPOINTING
For heroes like this to be in a movie, there should be more action with the hulk. As well as that there was a horrible plot behind the movie and it can bore you to death sometimes. This was truly horrible. -
Jan 4, 2015It's hard to believe that Marvel brought all of these C-list superheroes together in one movie.. and it works! This movie is a blast from start to finish. Great acting, specifically Ruffalo, Hiddleston and Downey. Great visuals and some great laughs where I laughed harder than at most comedies I've seen.
Jan 4, 2015By no 2nd close I think this is the best movie Marvel is yet to put out there. Even though I'm writing this review a couple years after the movies release I still think these things are true. Good acting, an OK dialogue and a lot of entertaining moments make for a GOOD movie. Notice how I didn't put great or just good, it was kind of in between.
Jan 4, 2015The avengers is probably Marvel's best movie. The effects were outstanding, the acting exceptional and the story line was humorous as well as serious. This movie would probably be better for comic book readers as they would have a sense of awe throughout the film, people who didn't really know about comics wouldn't understand all the terms and Easter eggs thus the experience wouldn't be so great.
Dec 30, 2014
Dec 21, 2014Marvel 's Iconic superheroes assembles in one amazing Movie.The Avengers is a great film in general with amazing heroes and fantastic actors portraying with awesome visual effects,Good story and great character development.The Villain,Loki,is a great villain ,Tom Hiddleston did a great job portraying his character.The Avengers is a great summer blockbuster!
Dec 18, 2014as much as it pains a fan who mostly prefers DC to Marvel I have to admit this is probably the greatest superhero movie ever made. it is very well acted and paced and has some of the best action sequences i've ever seen particularly the battle in new york the whole thing feels like a great event comic. this was well worth the build up here's hoping the sequel is just as good
Dec 15, 2014Literally the perfect and the best Marvel movie so far. It has awesome special effects, acting, and villians. Everyone you loved from Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, and Hulk is in this movie. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it.
Dec 7, 2014The avengers is a good movie which is action-packed and has a good storyline. The special effects used were awesome.This is a good movie to watch if you haven't seen this movie.
Nov 23, 2014The Avengers es una película en la que algunos momentos se torna fastidiosa, pero sin embargo ofrece unos grandes efectos visuales y da un buen espectáculo, por lo tanto tampoco hay que decir que la película es mala.

Oct 19, 2014
Sep 8, 2014This is the best superhero movie ever made. Joss Wheadon did a nearly flawless job. The character and story development is superb. It has huge impacts for all characters. There are rarely movies like this with no weak scenes. Bonus points for the villain. Watching Loki is just delicious. He enjoys being the evil guy.
Aug 31, 2014With Joss Whedon at the helm, I expected much more. To bring all of The Avengers together in a single film is no easy task; nevertheless, I cannot help but feel as though it could've been better executed.
Aug 24, 2014
Aug 23, 2014The Avengers is witty, intense and very entertaining, I loved every second of it, and every character of it stroke my heart and I was into their situation. I regret not seeing this in theaters.
Aug 15, 2014All the adventure you could possibly ask for from a multitude of super heroes...even Harry Dean Stanton has a cameo..Loki is the stand out shine....Love him...

For a movie made in 2012, US Air Fighters should have been included c'mon ;)
But great movie overall and funny! -
Jul 8, 2014הסרט הכי יפה של במארוול יוניברס עד כה, סרט ממש מהנה ומבדר כדאי לראות. במיוחד למי שאוהב סרטי גיבורי על ימות על הסרט הזה. אבל חבל שהוא לא יותר מסרט קיץ כיפי

Una buena película que tiene como principal virtud juntar a varios superhéroes de Marvel con éxito,pero no tiene una buena historia y por momentos se siente muy monótona. -
May 4, 2014Overhyped but a fun ride none the less. it is fantastic to get to see all these heroes together on the big screen. However even with the super lame villain Loki, the avengers never crosses to lame.
Apr 19, 2014
Mar 31, 2014This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Mar 24, 2014I think the optimal film does not know why not won any Oscars worthy because it had History, cast, special effect of exellent quality, although not so the best thing to have your movie special effect I thought it was good because you make a film heroine and not will place special effect, I think they put emseu comedy film, and mixed with action.
Mar 8, 2014The problem I see in this movie was the theme, which is not very well designed, and were supposed to be more. It has lots of action and stunning visuals, but only enough, in my opinion, this 6.
Mar 4, 2014A rather simple plot is elevated greatly by slick, stylish and witty dialogue and script. It's also worth noting that Whedon in a few scenes cleverly avoids contrivance, which seems to be a staple and almost a cliche nowadays for superhero movies. Overall, this films lives up to its hype and it's definitely up there for one of my favourite action movies.
Feb 27, 2014This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Feb 24, 2014Great fun! Mark Ruffalo as Hulk totally owns Eric Bana's poor performance and also surpassess Norton's Hulk. Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow... oh dead God that leather suit.. I don't need to talk about it no more.. Just watch this movie if you want a great popcorn flick.
Feb 16, 2014
Feb 14, 2014The Godfather Of The Marvel Cinematic Universe Thus Far.
The Characters Are Flawlessly Acted, The Script Is Brilliant, & It Can Make Anyone Feel Marvelous. -
Feb 13, 2014The Avengers is possibly the single greatest movie I have ever seen. It kept me on the edge of my seat nearly the entire movie! The Avengers tied up every prequel that came before it which I really liked. I bought the movie for Blu-Ray and watch it nearly every time I get the chance to. The Avengers keeps me wrapped up in the mysteries and funny moments.
Feb 3, 2014
Feb 1, 2014Mala muy sobre valorada, Joss Whedon puede ser bue guionista pero como director deja mucho que desear, la película es decepcionante y todos parecen niños desesperados por esta película. Una historia muy simple.
Jan 15, 2014Whoa, this movie is unquestionably a "Must Watch" for all Marvelites around the globe. This film features a unique combination of Iron Man, Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Thor, Hulk and one of the most loved and awesome villains, Loki! Joss Whedon should be the face of Marvel! I'd love it if the Avengers 2 included Spider-Man!
Jan 11, 2014
Jan 6, 2014Well let's everybody enjoy ourselves with a quality superhero flick that is... In its first multiple superhero team-up, executed nearly flawlessly. Consider the many opportunities that this movie had a chance to create gaping plot holes, only to be masterfully minimized by Whedon and his team.
Jan 3, 2014this film just works. each marvel hero is woven into the story seamlessly, and the script sparkles with their interplay. it is essentially a classic comic book movie so the story doesn't really hold up, but hell, it's damn entertaining and has some very funny moments.
Dec 30, 2013
Dec 30, 2013The action is extremely well done, and fortunately there are a couple of interesting characters on screen (Tony Stark [Ironman], Steve Rogers [Cpt. America]) to provide a bit more. Otherwise, we're talking about a completely cartoony plot, with one dimensional (at best) characters (how hard was it to make *Loki* interesting?!), and junior-high grade dialog.
Dec 22, 2013
Dec 21, 2013Why all the hate it's a fun movie to watch featuring some of the hottest stars alive it actually gets better with each time viewing and I'm NOT a fan of comics
Dec 17, 2013
Dec 16, 2013
Dec 15, 2013Una cagada, aburrida por momentos, las peleas son flojas, sin EPICA sin EMOCIÓN una mierda en general. Fue muy sobre valorada. La gente es ciega, salí del cine re decepcionado.
Dec 13, 2013
Dec 13, 2013I can't find a single reason to give this movie a 9.This is perfect film certainly the best movie of the year for me.The characters are great and the last battle true epicness that you can't get enough.Our culture is much richer and glorius with this movie at our hands.
Dec 10, 2013Decepcionante, es una adaptación bastante fría, sin emoción no eh visto nada EPICO en esta película, su tono infantil la caga un poco. La expectativa fue mucha y termino siendo una decepción total.
Dec 8, 2013
Dec 7, 2013
Nov 29, 2013The truth is that neither film excited me at any time, lacks epic, awesome and it was very overrated. The truth donot like people I went crazy for this movie.
Nov 27, 2013He did not like much. I expected much better. The film was highly overrated, no epic, no emotion, nothing was a cinch. People are very rare, then criticize the serious films like Man of Steel and The Dark Knight Rises, the truth is that this is awesome.
Nov 24, 2013I was wondering how they could've ben able to have done it, especially since I was hyped for it for years. As it seems, I was let down by a couple of things, but the action and the story were what kept me siting there. Overall, it was worth the wait.
Nov 18, 2013I expected MUCH more from this movie, I could see a story in this film that really convinced me. I saw more special effects. El personaje de Iron Man, solo arrogancia, no se como les gusta a muchos, una mierda de pelicula
Nov 17, 2013This Is My Favourite Movie, The Action Is Fun, The Humor is Funny, Just A Really Extremely Awesome Movie Check it Out Seriously Do So Right Now.... NOW!
Nov 13, 2013Probably one of the finest Marvel movies released (behind the first Iron Man of course). Joss Whedon's ability to bring several characters into one picture truly translates well.
Nov 6, 2013
Nov 4, 2013I have been waiting a long time to see this movie. And I'm going to start off by saying that "The Avengers" is incredible. The action scenes are spectacularly exciting, with excellent use of visuals and CGI. One of my favorite scenes was when the camera spins around the superheroes because that was epic. This could well be one of the best summer blockbusters ever made.
Oct 19, 2013avengers is a good superhero movie that entertains enough, marvel managed to make several characters become the center of the story, not the best superhero movie of all time but it deserves to be seen.
Oct 19, 2013
Oct 6, 2013
Sep 21, 2013The Avengers is a solid effort to combine some very powerful heroes into a single storyline. There are some elements that aren't perfect, including an unusually irritating Tony Stark. Loki chews the scenery and lights up every scene he's in.
Sep 20, 2013
Sep 20, 2013"The Avengers" was probably one of the most exhilarating movies I have ever watched. It creative mix of characters and its unstoppable action is as epic as it can be. The only slight downside of it is its relatively simple plot, but it is an action movie, and it's large budget is mostly for enhancing that. I am pretty sure that the sequel scheduled for 2015 is a movie that I will watch.
Aug 24, 2013Enough action to go with the plot, which is remarkably sensible and it's pacing get's to the main point quickly. The depth of each characters personalities (especially those of Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr.) interrelate to create this energetic tone to the film. It's and eye popping extravaganza.
Aug 24, 2013[8.2] It's by far the best Marvel movie since the original Iron Man movie, and just as much fun. Colorful characters, a likable cast, and outstanding production. There's not much I don't like about this movie.
Aug 23, 2013
Aug 22, 2013
Aug 8, 2013
The banter has zip, the effects are fun, the climactic battle is decently spectacular, and if the 3-D is mostly expendable, there are a few scenes where it adds a nice kick.
This mania is what Marvel followers have hungered for, and it would be fruitless to deny their delight. As Loki says to a crowd of earthlings, "It is the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation." We do, Master, we do.
They're fascinating characters, to be sure, with back stories ripe for development. But Whedon doesn't commit here, and the results are shrug-worthy.

commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again.
Delete that bloated snippets file you've been using and share your personal repository with the world. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.
If you have a new feature suggestion or find a bug, please get in touch via http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/
You can sign-in using OpenID credentials, or register a traditional username and password.
First-time OpenID users will be automatically assigned a username which can be changed after signing in.
Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the great commands get tweeted.

» http://twitter.com/commandlinefu10
Use your favourite RSS aggregator to stay in touch with the latest commands. There are feeds mirroring the 3 Twitter streams as well as for virtually every other subset (users, tags, functions,…):
Subscribe to the feed for:
ls -l may vary depending on operating system, so "print $8" may have to be changed
For this example, all files in the current directory that end in '.xml.skippy' will have the '.skippy' removed from their names.
Must have the video open and fully loaded.
This is useful for paging through long directories, mulitple directories, etc. I put this in my ~/.bash_aliases file and alias 'lsl' to it.
it does provide much more information , the owner , group , the size in byte , and the last modified time a file or directory was
ls -al : list all in long format
trying to copy all your dotfiles from one location to another, this may help
This will only work on files since ls won't tell the size of a directory contents.
Note that the first switch is the digit one, not the letter ell.
Can easily be scripted in order to show permission "tree" from any folder. Can also be formated with
column -t
{ pushd .> /dev/null; cd /; for d in `echo $OLDPWD | sed -e 's/\// /g'`; do cd $d; echo -n "$d "; ls -ld .; done; popd >/dev/null ; } | column -t
from http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/3731/using-column-to-format-a-directory-listing
plays with bash arrays. instead of storing the list of files in a temp file, this stores the list in ram, retrieves the last element in the array (the last html file), then removes it.
-d: list directory entries instead of contents, and do not dereference symbolic links
No need for -l and the output can be sent directly into another function expecting directory names.
Comments can be used directly on the command line so I can save in the history a brief description of what command does.
List files and pass to openssl to calculate the hash for each file.
Works 99.9% of the time; so far never required a more complex expression in manual input.
Although rm is protected against it, there are many commands that would wreak havoc on entering the obvious ".*" to address "dot-files". This sweet little expression excludes the dirs "." and ".." that cause the problems.

A formal announcement that the Sacramento Kings will move to Seattle is not imminent, according to sources close to the ongoing talks, though the investment group negotiating to buy the team appears close to a deal.
Yahoo! Sports reporter Adrian Wojnarowski said the NBA is committed to moving the Kings to Seattle. The league has been heavily involved, the league office have been heavily involved with putting together and fortifying this ownership group and the arena, and the arena in Seattle, he said.
Wojnarowski, who has sources throughout the NBA organization, added, I think there is too much invested for this thing to go sideways.
One factor in Seattle's favor is that the Maloof family, owners of the Kings franchise, are tired of trying to make the team a success in Sacramento. The option of keeping that team in sacramento for another year is not appealing financially for them, for the league, Wojnarowski said.
But guessing what the Maloofs will do is not easy. Sacramento Bee reporter Ryan Lillis said the family owes million to the city and possibly $125 million to the NBA -- financial pressure that could push the Maloofs to agree to a $500 million deal with Chris Hansen and the rest of the group hoping to bring the Kings to Seattle.
Meanwhile, reaching a deal with the Maloofs is just part of what it will take to bring the NBA back to Seattle. Hansen and his group must navigate an environmental review of their proposed $490 million arena project, and the Port of Seattle and unionized dock workers remain vocal in their opposition to locating the arena near the port.
But one obstacle appears to be going away. Bart Waldman, a top official with the Seattle Mariners, hinted that the team is warming up to the arena proposal. He said he is excited to see the NBA back in Seattle and that the team will work with the city on the envornmental review.

Progressive+ Calf Sleeves Customer Reviews
Write a Review (based on 41 reviews)
By Michael
Wear them All the Time -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI've purchased six or seven pairs of calf sleeves, over the past two years, I like them so much. I wear the calf sleeves even when I am not training. They always seem to provide more support and feeling in my calves as soon as I put them on.
By Alex
First 50k -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI ran my first 50k (the Huff) with these calf sleeves, The longest race prior to this was a half. My calves felt great the entire race and post race did not become sore for the rest of my body the story was entirely different. Would recommend 100% if doing an ultra.
By Nick
Awesome! -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI have two pairs that I use for crossfit, the quality and functionality is amazing! I have a pair (from a different company) that will not stay up, stitching is ripping and they are newer and more expensive. I learned my lesson and will stick with the CEP for my next purchase
By Gregory
Great Product -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI was recovering from shin splints when I had this product recommended to me. It was just what I needed to relieve the pain. Quality product.
By Sharon
Rara -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesGreat fit and product. Purchased for my son to wear for basketball practices and games. Totally took away his shin splints pain and allowed him to play at full speed. Also gave him more energy/stamina to play entire game with less fatigue during highly competitive varsity level play. Will buy more for AAU coming up and for season next yr.
By Heidi
Great for Recovery -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI'm new to running and these socks work great for recovery. I like to wear them at night when I sleep and my legs feel great in the morning.
By Donald
Great -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesComplete comfort and mobility when using when using them 3-4 days out of the week. No complaints and will definitely buy another pair or two.
By Devin
Fantastic! -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesAfter suffering from shin splints these calf compression sleeves are a life saver. I'm very happy and plan on purchasing the achillis heel support sleeves also
By Peter
Great Product! -
Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesI have 2 pair of these. They do everything they claim to do! I bought them due to a left calf cramp issue when running. I no longer get the cramps. My legs feel much better. I love that I can wear them before during & after exercise. They even made my cramps disappear I was getting while sleeping. My 1st pair I tried on at a retailer were size V. They felt fine & still are OK. I wanted a second pair & after reading the sizing info regarding calf circumference, & measuring mine, decided to order a size IV on line because the retailer had none at all in stock. They do feel a little better than the V's but are about one half inch too short. But this is not a 'deal breaker". I will continue to buy the IV's.

Comments about Progressive+ Calf SleevesThe CEP sleeves worked out great for my long distant training runs, marathons and ultra. Without the sleeves, I would have endured calf cramping and shin splints. If you could design thigh compression for the knee/thigh area I would buy them without question. The durability of the sleeves are great too. Thanks

Panel studying possible changes to state retirement system benefits Upgrades in retirement benefits granted to Mississippi's public sector workers a decade ago could get rolled back as the state, its cities, counties and school districts struggle to stay financially afloat.

Day of reckoning ahead for Mississippi's Public Employment Retirement System
August 22, 2011
According to union lawyer, Public Employment Retirement System chief, options are limited
August 22, 2011
The head of the Public Employees Retirement System of Mississippi says the $20.7-billion retirement trust fund is constitutionally protected but she doubts the benefits of retirees and public sector workers enrolled in the plan have the same protections. "However, this could be debated," said Pat Robertson, PERS executive director. She cited a 1986 amendment to […]

the first time I saw slayer, was too excited because I had never seen before and was anciosa that the day of the concert came but a little nervous. had to travel to london to see and buy my ticket well in advance, so I wanted to make the time pass quickly for it to arrive the day. I only asked a question: why on Sunday?, and the truth a concert on Sunday is not good without alcohol (haha: P). but hey the band played very well, never forget that day and would like to see them again .... & (I would have liked to see Jeff Hanneman)

L.E. Wilson Neck Sizer Die Bushing 332 Diameter Steel
Product #: 553583
L.E. Wilson #:
- Information
The L.E. Wilson Neck Sizing Bushing will allow the reloader to custom fit the L.E. Wilson Neck Sizer Die to any brass and bullet combination. To determine the correct size bushing, simply measure the outside diameter of the neck of a loaded round, then subtract .002" or .003" from the measurement. Since brass has a tendency to "spring-back" after sizing, this calculation will result in a consistent .001" to .002" inch of grip between the case neck and the bullet. Consistent neck tension is a key factor in quality bench rest loads.
Technical Information
Material: Heat Treated Steel
Freely interchange in all Wilson bushing type neck sizing dies.
To Determine Bushing Size, measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded cartridge with a precision micrometer. From this measurement subtract .002" to .003", to allow for brass spring back and bullet tension.
By selecting the correct bushing you can provide just the right amount of neck tension to properly hold the bullet without excessive resizing.

text: 132 min | NR Sul Kyung–gu (OASIS, HAEUNDAE), Son Ye–jin (SPELLBOUND), and Kim Sang–kyung (MEMORIES OF MURDER) join forces in this Korean action drama about a devastating event at a luxury high rise in the middle of Seoul. To celebrate Christmas, the 120 story landmark building decides to hold a "White Christmas" party for residents. Helicopters are hired to circle the building and spray the building with man-made snow as partygoers are amazed by the spectacle. Their amazement soon turns into terror when a helicopter loses control and crashes into the building, setting off a chain off horrifying events that threatens the lives of all the residents.

Captain Morrie Fraser, District 19 Commander, has announced that the Illinois State Police (ISP) will conduct an Alcohol Countermeasure Enforcement (ACE) patrol in White County during the month of March. The ACE patrol allows the ISP to target an area with a saturation patrol that focuses on preventing, detecting, and taking enforcement action in response to violations associated with impaired driving and illegal transportation or consumption of alcohol and other drugs.
Across the country, an average of one alcohol-related traffic death occurs every 51 minutes. Alcohol and drug impairment remain significant factors in nearly 40 percent of all fatal motor vehicle crashes in Illinois. Each year in Illinois, hundreds of lives are lost in alcohol-related crashes. Don't risk losing a license, a car, and freedom. If one drives impaired, law enforcement will make an arrest. This project is funded by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Traffic Safety.

Finally some progress to report. The insulating hearth has been poured and allowed to dry for two weeks. It is 4.5" or perlcrete which is perlite mixed 6:1 with portland cement. Once good and dry I mixed up a 1:1 mix of sand and fireclay and made it into a wet slurry. I then used a trowel to spread it across the rough surface of the insulating concrete. Finally I screeded(if that is a word) it into a perfect flat surface. Once it was dry I set the floor, which is a 42" diameter circle of fire brick 2.5" thick. Now it's on to the most complex part of the entire build, the entry. It will be castable refractory formed in a mold. That means I need to build the mould(which is fairly complex) build a vibration table, and obtain some castable. All doable, but it is gonna be fun and I'm sure I'll hit a speed bump or two even with all my planning.
