Thread: Creed Spice & Wood
I stopped by the Creed store in Manhattan today and was lucky enough to get a sample vial and a generous wearing of Spice and Wood. My initial impression is that it is very restrained and super-smooth. This is a classy fragrance, no loud cloud no matter how many sprays (and I must have used 7-8 sprays). It seems to project at the same noble volume as Windsor.
What does it smell like? It certainly is, well, wood and spice. Though the wood is, according to the breakdown, in the base, I smelled it from the start. It's cedar, but not a Terre D'Hermes cedar. This wood is present, but quiet. I picked up a hint of lemon, a touch of apple, and lots of silky smooth wood.
An hour or so into it, the spices really came out and the wood took a backseat. Still there, just taking a breather in the back. At this point, a bit to my disappointment, the apple and spices came alive and resembled, at least to my nose, L'Anarchiste -- which I like, but don't love. (The S/A told me he relates W&S to Malle's Bois D'Orage.) The good news is, an hour later, the wood and spice met, the apple quieted, and the real beauty of this frag came alive. To my nose, the apple is present at the same level that the pineapple is in Aventus. I've smelled most of the Creed line and to me, there are no similar frags from the House to compare this to.
I put myself on the list for a bottle, but I really need to do some thinking. I need a few more wears to really get to know this stranger. This could be love, just not love at first, um, whiff. I remembering having mixed feelings about Aventus, but by the second wearing, I had my Holy Grail.
After trying this on, I immediately got into the car and my female partner from work told me that it smelled sexy, refined and EXPENSIVE. I think so too, but it's the EXPENSIVE part which keeps me from getting too excited. More to come after a few more wearings...

"What actions are most excellent? To gladden the heart of human beings, to feed the hungry, to help the afflicted, to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the sufferings of the injured" Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
Apple being as prominent as the Pineapple in Aventus has me hopeful.
As I liked the apple in Cereus #4, Baldinini, L'Anarchiste, & Burberry London.
But the sillage and longevity resembling windsor makes me think this isn't the winter powerhouse EDP I was expecting. Because even though Windsor is clearly denoted by CREED as an EDP on it's packaging, we all know it's sillage and longevity are more EDT-like, and alot of the oils it uses are subtle and discreet, even at high applications.
Would you say the cedar note is the same as the dry cedar/tonka accord used in Windsor?
Are there any other scents you feel share with Spice&Wood, besides L'Anarchiste?
Is the spice at all like Opus 1870, with alot of pepper?
Or much more clove/cinnamic, with minimal pepper?
is there alot more of the same musk accord used in Aventus?
What are the florals (angelica, rose, iris) like?

I'll be wearing Windsor on Thursday to a special event so I can do a better comparison -- it's been a few months since I've worn it.
As for the florals, I think I'm getting a little rose, but it's so far back, I'm not sure yet. I don't know what angelica smells like, so I can't pull it out here. Clove seems to be one of the main spices here. The others I can't quite identify. I'm not getting any cinnamon. I don't know Opus 1870, so I can't really compare it. So far, L'Anarchiste keeps coming to mind. I'm hesitant to say it's the alleged "pot-pourri" note because that would unfairly cheapen Spice and Wood -- it clearly does not smell cheap.
A comparison to L'Anarchiste is like saying "SoS, you NEED to try this."

I will say it's a bit intimidating being the first to post a "review" of such a high-profile frag. I'm only in the game a couple years and still have trouble disecting a scent. It'd be interesting to see what the pros think of this and see how far I've come.

Thanks MikeNY. I love Windsor, so I look forward to smelling this one.
Thanks for posting MikeNY - great overall intro! The Aventus, Anarchiste, clove references all very helpful for me as an indication of what's to come - look forward to trying this.
This one sounds promising
but the Apple threw me off for a second
only one way to know for sure
Off-Site Decants =) (updated 05/16/12)
Thanks for your write up MikeNY. I went in for a decant split, as this looked promising to me when I first read about it and it sounds even better than I initially thought it would be, so I can't wait to get my fingers on this one
Thanks Mike. Sounds very interesting.
I can only hope the buggers sell it here in the UK as well!
Life's a bitch. If it were a slut it'd be easy.
Got a sample recently and thought I would share my opinion.
After application, there is an immediate blast of pepper and sense of dryness. This dryness is certainly the wood, but its not pencil-shavings wood nor is it a petroleum wood oil. This is kind of like what hits you with Cypres Musc. As one reviewer said of that fragrance, its like standing in a saw-mill with wood chips flying all around you. This mixes with the lemons and reminds me slightly of Bois de Cedrat at the start. I get maybe 10% bergamot and maybe 3% apples. If apple were not listed in the top notes by CREED, I would not identify it at all.
It settles down after a somewhat chaotic opening into an absolute wonderland of spice. Make no mistake, spice is the big man on campus here, not wood. The clove oil and angelic root play off each other to form a composition that is extremely unique and successful. The pepper settles down, as does the wood. The wood seems to form a canvas on which the spice displays its art. Dont be afraid of clove here. Its not Bois de Portugal, which is a huge overbearing wet clove. This is a light, airy, cold and dry clove whose sweetness is kept in line by the angelic root. This produces eversoslight licorice and cinnamon accords. But dont worry, I hate licorice this isnt like that.
After an hour or two, the base starts to shine through. Here are the similarities to Aventus, due to the oakmoss and birch. Some liken it to burnt rubber. I liken it to smells good. Not as sweet as the Aventus base... the iris keeps this classy and buttoned up.
All in all, this is a masterpiece of a fragrance. Much like Sublime Vanille, these Royal Exclusive scents are clearly made with an attention to craftsmanship and detail that is clearly above the rest of the Creed line (with the exception of Windsor). There is a delicacy in these two frags that is quite extraordinary. The two are very different though. Sublime Vanille is a strict and unwavering dedication to the scent of vanilla, and pulls it off on a level that makes it a benchmark to which all other vanilla fragrances are measured.
Spice and Wood, however, is a symphony of many different accords, all of the highest quality, all playing together wonderfully to give the wearer the ride of a lifetime. An enigmatic dreamy experience reminiscent of the best aspect of Love in Black. It is NOT (as has been mentioned here before) anything like Original Santal. I have OS, and enjoy it. This aint it. It can though fill the role of a young mans Bois de Portugal. However, like Aventus, a very progressive and modern fragrance. This doesn't harken back to anything old-school. It has about the same projection, sillage, and longevity as Windsor. This fragrance is pretty well gone after two hours. If that bothers you, go get Burberry London. This here is a different ballgame. This exudes class, and as Mike's lady friend said, it does smell expensive.
It definitely gives off a vibe of wintery goodness. As Im smelling this, I picture warming up next to the fire on a cold December evening before Christmas, sipping on some hot cider & whiskey. Basically, if the terms SPICE and WOOD appeal to you, you will adore this... much like if VANILLA appeals to you, you will be crazy about Sublime Vanille.
Be excited, CREED fans. Be very excited!
Nice review fugazi, and welcome to Basenotes
Quite a first post Fugazi, and it has my hopes back up for Spice & Wood, except the longevity part. Windsor is my favorite fragrance O.A.T., but the longevity of those incredibly beautiful top and heart notes seems never enough, I guess that's why I buy so much of it, to reapply often, as well as supplementing the freshness and crispness with it's closest peer in the fragrance world, Prelude to Love.
Hopefully, Spice and Wood's longevity or sillage are less discreet than Windsor. Creed needs another loud masculine, this time, a contemporary loud masculine that is not in any way gourmand. Fingers still crossed for Spice and Wood filling that role.

I've never been part of one before, but is anyone hosting a split?
From everything I'm reading and smelling about the recent Creeds, it seems they are shifting to more subtle and transparent style of compositions, but a dense and powerful masculine would be quite interesting.
I don't mind subtle, but transparent is no good.
One of the main qualitative superlatives of the creed line (for me) was their relative opaqueness, even their fresh scents like GIT and MI had very opaque basenotes. This opaque quality added a sense of thorough natural richness and class that the transparent designer frags couldn't compete with. Stepping away from the opaque would remove an integral part of their appeal of the line for me. The only texturally transparent creed that worked for me was Original Vetiver.

I heard it is transparent as well, we will see how it goes down on my skin. I will be getting a sample soon so I will see if i can make some comparisions to another cologne or something I have smelled elsewhere. I am very interested in experiencing this fragrance it has been the talk of the town for some time.
perhaps that's why that one review said that Creed is going "Hermes" on us. Which is ridiculous. Voyage is weak crap. This packs quite a punch. that review likening its "punch" to Cuir de Russie is spot on.
it's not transparent. it's ethereal, and it transitions from note to note rapidly... hence the "dreamlike" quality. If you are looking for some Tobacco Vanille thing where you spray it on and it just sits there and blares at 145 decibles for 12 hours until you are utterly sick of it, then this isn't for you.
also, unlike Tobacco Vanille, which smells like someone has rubbed a piece of chocolate-raspberry fudge cake on my skin, I wouldn't consider this "gourmand" at all... which is tricky for a spice-based frag to pull off (for obvious reasons). Creed's other spice frag, Epicea, smells like Indian food and is pretty repellent to me. This is nothing like that thank god. That's a "dirty spice". This, however, is a very clean spice.
and i was a little hard on the apples. apple is there, but it weaves in and out. sometimes it's quite apparent, sometimes it's invisible. when i wrote my review up there, it was hiding at the time :-)

It even certainly shares elements of both the scents I was hoping it did:
--smokey/rubbery elements of Aventus base
--the Windsor cedar
But it also lacks elements of Aventus/Windsor which would have been welcome in the move.....the sweet-tonka/soft-florals of the windsor base, which softened and "charmed up" the cedar, and it lacks the fresh musk and light sweetness of the aventus base, which complimented the dryness. With Spice and Wood, these elements are just too bare and dry for me....It's just smokey rubber, ground peppercorn, and pungent CEDAR, with TINY drops of tart rose, angelica root, green apple, and dry iris. It's lacking the balance I was expecting from apple and clove oil.
And one more thing you are corect about, is that much like Sublime Vanille focused entirely on Vanille, and did so in a light way, Spice and Wood caters to those seeking a discriminating-quality wood/spice scent, one which does it in a light way. Not in a heavy/cloying way like Tobacco Vanille.
So while we agree on nearly every stage of Spice and Wood, we couldn't feel more differently in regards to our like-dislike. I find it tremendously dissapointing, while you find it beautiful. I can even see what type would like it, and have listed many types of scents which share some similarity (minus a few things) in either scent type, or in scent character. No need to get mad, we just differ. Neither of us is more correct, we just have differing taste is all.

After three or so wearings from my sample vial, I've decided that I do love the smell of Spice and Wood. Not capital letters LOVE, but it's love alright. I stand by most of what I said in my original review, even my comparison to L'Anarchiste (to my nose, the middle reminds me of a whispering L'Anarchiste. Perhaps I'd change my mind if I did a side-by-side.) I'm still on the fence about purchasing a full bottle. For that price tag, this would have to be more than love. The longevity is worse than any Creed I own (about 9 bottles). Quite a shame, really, as longevity issues don't normally bother me. It's the ratio to the price which makes it more of an issue for me. In terms of volume, I'm not looking for a 90's powerhouse, per se. (Perhaps a few sprays from a real atomizer and not a sample vial might help.) I agree with Creed when they say that 'royalty need not shout,' but at the very least it should be heard.
Thanks for the great reviews guys.
I'm looking forward to trying this and desperately hoping I like it. I love spicy woody fragrances, in fact many of my favourite drydowns encompass those qualities.
I'm hoping I like it more than Aventus, which I have tried many times to "get", but I just don't, you smell like a pineapple for a while and then the fragrance wanders around in a weak indistinctive haze and then disappears. It's not an effect I would pay £100 + a bottle for. The longevity of Aventus is shockingly poor - I've got colognes that last longer, so it concerns me when MikeNY indicates that the longevity of Spice & Wood is worse than any Creed he owns. As a guide I put Aventus on less than ten minutes ago and already I'm struggling to smell it.
I sometimes wonder if Creed are having an elaborate and costly joke at our expense. They have some of the best openings out there, but time after time I have been left disappointed, a bit like finding out the beautiful frontage of a house is only a facade and that behind it is just a tin shack with a dilapidated outhouse attached.
Update: It's maybe an hour or so since I applied Aventus and it has almost completely disappeared. With my nose two inches away from my skin I can barely smell it - and this after a fairly hefty application. I don't get the appeal, I really don't.

In a world where people smell bad, it is the personal responsibility of every Basenoter to improve the world one SotD at a time...
its modernity might factor in too. correct me if i'm wrong, but i think you are a fan of CREED's old-school scents, and see their modern-take with Aventus and Spice & Wood as a disturbing departure.
i see it as a very welcome addition.

Well I finally got a chance to sample this Spice and Woods and let just say this takes "Royalty need not shout" to a WHOLE new level!
This is another Creed release that I must say I am very very disappointed in. What is going on here. Literally within one hour I cannot smell it anymore. It follows the exact same composition as Aventus with a fruit note (this time apple instead of Pineapple) than this leads into some very faint woods. I dont get SPICES, I get lower case spices.
I cant imagine why anyone would need an 8.4oz of this. There is no sillage, no longevity and frankly no originality at all. This is from a house that started me on this hobby of collecting scents. i must say I am very disappointed! Honestly, I was expecting something like Penhalligons Sartorial release which I feel is a great scent and the complete opposite of what Penhalligons usually does.
Very Very disappointing. I cant imagine how thin and unoriginal the next release will be named Eau de Cologne. Thank god for Windsor!
So....concensus is, if you like Aventus, you will like Spice and Wood? I'm loving Aventus.
"Dont try to be original. Be simple. Be good technically, and if there is something in you, it will come out. - Henri Matisse.
"Wear R de Capucci" - Hirch Duckfinder
I really want to buy this BLIND so bad! The bottle looks so nice. Also, if i do buy..... mine will be Autographed by Erwin Creed
As for creed's modernity, I appreciate CREED's older scents, especially Royal Scottish Lavender (and I HATEHATEHATE Lavender), and the clean muskiness of Orange Spice's base (not the poo up top), as well as having an appreciation for the "old man" Creeds I would never wear, but recognize their supreme quality: Private Tabarome, BdP, BdG, and the "old woman" creeds i also wouldn't wear but recognize their incredible quality: Feuille Verte, Fleur De The Rose Bulgarie, Angelique Encens
If you care to gage my modernity, my personal favorite creeds are:
1. Windsor
2. Selection Verte
3. Green Irish Tweed
4. Millesime Imperial (a very fruity modern scent)
5. tie: Green Valley/Erolfa/Original Vetiver
So it's not modernity or unisexness I dislike of CREED's newest two, it's mainly the lack of opaqueness, and the lack of longevity by Aventus and Spice and Wood, as well as the rubbery quality of the floral notes used. They definitely both use a similar framework and share portions of each others' pallettes, but neither seems smooth or rich enough for my nose. Aventus came slightly closer to smooth with the clean musks/vanilla/ambergris/moss notes used in the base, but the concentration of the fresher/smoother notes in the heart and base should be increased imo. And Spice and wood would have certainly benefitted from a large dose of those notes as well, in addition to other spices more prominent than pepper. It's just too dry, simple, and weak to warrant such a crazy price.

And as for the bolded "Original Cologne" prediction, This possibility has me praying it's not a royal exclusive (both duds imo), and that my prediction of it being a 3rd gradient bottle millesime, based around a long-lasting synthetic heart accord, just like the other two "Original Vetiver" and "Original Santal".
They better get their ship in order quick with several great releases, as i was expecting Spice and Wood to make stronger and better use of the winning elelemnts in Aventus, but it instead removed them, kept the rubbery/smokey notes, and added cedar and black pepper....there is much potential in the Aventus base, but they better richen/thicken/freshen it up and not get obsessed with rubber and smoke. I'm worried for their future.

[QUOTEThe original cologne will be a royal exclusive.[/QUOTE]
Correct. The next two Royal Exclusives will be Original Cologne and White Flowers from what I have been told
Very interesting and informitive reviews. Am a big fan of Aventus and Windsor so I will be trying this one also. Kind of hope I dont care for it so I can save myself some money.
somehow i think Creed will be just fine. In contrast, I think they are in the midst of a remarkable streak of creativity and artistic inspiration, after a good decade of wallowing. I discovered Creed in 1997, and from about 1999 through last year, I kind of drifted from them after the rather pedestrian efforts of Tabarome Millesime, OV, OS, and Himalaya.
However, Sublime Vanille, Windsor, Aventus, and Spice & Wood have me EXTREMELY excited about the future of this house. As you stated before, Spice and Wood is not a poorly made fragrance. It just highlights notes that you don't particularly like. But you can't deny extraordinary quality, delicacy, and balance of all four fragrances I just mentioned.
for instance - I was never a huge fan of vanilla. But I got Sublime Vanille, and it is such a quality fragrance, it has MADE me a fan of vanilla! I am struck at the quality of that scent every single time I put it on, much like Windsor, maybe moreso.
So hang in there, maybe they'll hit a note you like soon. But it's rather self-centric to predict the demise of a house because they have made a few that you aren't personally a fan of. I would "be worried" if their quality of ingredients and craftsmanship declined, which it clearly has not. It has gone up significantly.
BTW - what do you mean by "opaque" in terms of fragrance? i know what it means in reality, but can't figure how you are applying a visual term to the smell-realm. Do you think something like TF's Tuscan Leather is "opaque"? Is that what you prefer?
Ok, I finally get the clove after dumping 3/4 of the sample on fabric, it's just a hint of Eugenol, drowned out by pepper and a dryish cardamom/bitter spice. Still, lowercase spice, as Cairomerta says. Opus 1870 kills this as a pepper scent.
I'm also getting more of the apple on fabric, still not much, and yes there is a stage after it dries down some where this smells like Burberry London, but more like the aftershave. I just don't understand where they see this being worth $550. The name, the bottle, the note list, all so very intriguing, the scent....not so much.
There is one thing that is intruiging me, it's the evergreen-type note in here. I can't place if it's cedar needles or what. It's almost like a cross of Cypress essential oil with the fresher green wet scent of freshly torn pine needles. A very nice subtle touch, but then again, "subtle" is the adjective that plagues this fragrance imo.
And I'm still left with the impression of a CDG woody, or like if amouage made an aftershave for something like Epic. It has that "snobby niche woody" steez all over it, but it's just so weak in concentration. Perhaps putting this in 8.4oz sprays is necessary.

That is why I find L'Anarchiste's Apple/Spices so drastically different. L'Anarchiste's Apple note is powerful and diffusive, very texturally wet, smelling almost entirely of Appleflesh (mashed into pulp/applesauce), no peel in site. Also, the clove note in L'Anarchiste, is definitely heavy on the typical fresh-ground clove smell we all associate. It's just a much more lively Apple/Spice than Spice and Wood's, which If I were to compare it to another apple-spice combo, I'd say after the pepper note burns off, it reminds of Burberry London, just much more subtle.

picked this up last week after visiting the boutique here in nyc a few weeks ago. couldn't get it out of my head. absolutely gorgeous fragrance. just smells of elegance and refinement. wished is had a bit more silage, but overall i'm thrilled with this scent. right up there with GIT in terms of timelessness.
Did this get reformulated after its initial release? I remember really liking it the first time I tried it. The last time I tried it (from the big new bottles) I enjoyed it for about 30 minutes and then the whole thing turned all birch tar on me. Everyone else I asked all said it was strong and not pleasant. Skin chemistry I'm sure is what most people would chalk it up to, but it's definitely not my favorite at this point, that's for sure.
I adore Spice and Wood. it is so well structured. the apple sits on top of a plank of dry wood, with spices weaving in and out.
but if you look at the note pyramid, it contains so many dry and austere components:
- angelic root
- lemon
- cedar
- pepper
- white birch
- iris
- oakmoss
when I wear this, my wife is often overwhelmed and does not like it. Royal Oud takes a similar idea but adds such a wonderful sweet heart to it, that it's definitely more wearable and likeable than S&W.
Although pricey, I am glad I have bought this. It's a very nice scent.
I just received a sample of this in a trade, my first impressions were that it was nice, but not $550 dollars nice. The issue though? My impossibly difficult to impress girlfriend went gaga for it. Even going as far as to say "that's the best one yet", "that just works with your skin chemistry". Any cheaper/better alternatives?
my wife says "smells like tree-sap, but I like it."
I think it's pretty nice stuff myself.
I thought it was okay, just not amazing, nor worth worth the high price tag. Opening was great, but dry down was mediocre and a bit synthetic.
The reviews on this thread are great, it has me wanting to try it. The notes are appealing except for the iris but i hear it's not too prominent. I want to hear marc's take on it in his niche haul video, there's really mixed opinions on this guy.
He hasn't been posting much videos this year, at least not as much as he used to. He posts videos, then leaves for 2-3 months, then comes back and posts again, so it's kind of hard to stay hooked. I think I heard him say he's going to be leaving again in June.
It's just amazing how many frags this guy has. Like even if money was no object for me, I doubt I'd have as much frags as he does. I would only buy bottles of frags that I enjoy, not any frag that I set my eyes on. In fact, the more frags that I buy, the pickier I get.

I know, I know. A Vieux Carré is supposed to have Peychaud's bitters in it. As you can see, it was at the tippy top of my shopping list.
But I went to four liquor stores that specialize in cocktail liquors and spirits and three didn't have it. And the fourth, when I showed up, was inexplicably closed for some sort of fermeture exceptionnelle. There was no sign, no nuthin', so I don't know. I tried peering through the darkened window to see if they had the bitters but couldn't tell and didn't want to use up another precious day of my life since I had already spent three days on the "Peychaud's Project", and needed to move on with my life. Plus passers-by were starting to look at me funny as I began hoisting myself up on a fire hydrant and a drainpipe on the building, hoping to get a better look inside the closed shop.

Muslim nations to host Olympics from 2020 onwards?
An Oxford University academic has identified ten Muslim-majority cities that he believes could realistically pitch to host the Olympics from 2020 and beyond, despite cultural, political and climatic hurdles.
With London readying to pass the baton to Rio de Janeiro, which will host South America's first ever Games in 2016, the study probes over the possibility of Muslim nation hosting the coveted sports event as never before has an Olympics been held in a Islamic country.
Kasim Randeree, a researcher at the internationally renowned Said Business School in study stated Istanbul near-top in his list, which has bid in vain on four previous occasions, and also cites several other potential city bids, having merit.
"From the perspective of the broader international community, engagement with the Muslim world could not be more necessary or timely ... and sport has historically been demonstrated as an effective tool in achieving similar goals," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Randeree, as saying.
"It is potentially in their long-term geopolitical and socio-economic interests for a [Muslim] nation to host the Olympics. I think Istanbul rates highly because of Turkey's history of Olympic participation," he added. In his research, Randeree sought to identify the key ingredients of previously successful Olympic bids since the 1960s, including Sydney's, with which he melded the IOC's technical criteria.
He revealed that of Indonesia's prospects, "regional al-Qaeda supported terrorism remains a major obstacle".
Randeree claimed that fierce summer temperatures would work against the Gulf cities, and even though the oil-rich states could climate-proof venues, signature Olympic events such as the marathon would still be adversely affected. (ANI)
Top Headlines
Yet another greek/armenian idiot. They comment like this on any news related to the Turks.
Not brave enough to even leave a fake name. Calling Muslims Barbarians. I would ask you sir/madam to check your history and see who has perpetrated the most barbaric of acts..then return and make an informed comment not a bigoted one
Dont wast time offering an olive branch to Muslim barbarians... especially the Turkish butchers who live on land no theirs. Instanbul is an occupied city for centuries and the Muslims then complain about Israel...

How is LAVH performed? What are the disadvantages of LAVH? What are the advantages of LAVH? Find a local Obstetrician-Gynecologist in your town What is a hysterectomy? A hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus (womb). For certain conditions, the Fallopian tubes and ovaries are also removed. The most common medical reasons for doing a hysterectomy include benign fibroid tumors of the uterus, abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, genital prolapse, and chronic pelvic pain. Some women choose to have a hysterectomy for other reasons, including other types of tumors. Uterine cancer is an uncommon, but important reason for doing a hysterectomy.What is a laparoscope? A laparoscope is a viewing tube through which structures within the abdomen and pelvis can be seen. A small surgical incision (cut) is made in the abdominal wall to permit the laparoscope to enter the abdomen or pelvis. Additional tubes can also be pushed through the same or other small incisions allowing the introduction of probes and other instruments. In this way, surgical procedures can be performed without the need for a large surgical incision.What is laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH)? Laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) is a surgical procedure using a laparoscope to guide the removal of the uterus and/or Fallopian tubes and ovaries through the vagina (birth canal). (A different procedure, called a laparoscopic hysterectomy, is entirely performed using a laparoscope and other instruments inserted through tiny abdominal incisions, and the uterus, Fallopian tubes etc. are removed in tiny portions.) Not all hysterectomies can or should be done by LAVH. In certain situations, a laparoscopic hysterectomy (see above) may be sufficient. In other cases, an abdominal hysterectomy or a vaginal hysterectomy (without laparoscopy) is indicated. The surgeon determines the appropriate procedure for each individual case based upon the reason for the hysterectomy and the medical history and condition of the patient.

Jon Gosselin is going to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. That's because he's got a date in court for TLC's breach of contract lawsuit against him.
RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively that Jon is required to appear December 14 in a Maryland courtroom when a judge will hear TLC's motion for a preliminary injunction. And yes, it is likely that he will be questioned under oath about his outside income, statements about TLC and more.
PHOTOS: Jon and Hailey on a play date!
TLC contends that Jon has violated the contract he signed with the network in several ways, including breaching their exclusivity and confidentiality clauses.
The Jon & Kate Plus 8 star will be going up against the law firm of Williams & Connolly, widely regarded as one of the best in the country.
Paul Gaffney, one of the firm's partners, is the lead lawyer on the case and likely will have the opportunity to question Jon on the stand.
PHOTOS: Jon and Hailey in France
That should make for great theater, as Gaffney has already won the judge's approval to depose six key witnesses, including Jon's girlfriend Hailey Glassman, his lawyer Mark Heller, manager Mike Heller, Michael Lohan plus his bodyguard and his talent rep.
RadarOnline.com broke the news exclusively Thursday about the six upcoming depositions. And now we've learned that a slew of other potential witnesses against Jon are being lined up.

Jon is gearing up for the battle, but it is unlikely that Mark Heller can or will officially represent him in Maryland.

The Vizsla is a hunting breed of dog, they have a very high prey drive. However, they can be socialized with cats and horses as puppies and can do fine around them. But there should always be supervision when the animals are in the same area together at first. As for digging, the Vizsla has a TON of energy and if they are not exercised then they will do something else to entertain and exercise themselves; and digging is one of those activities that the Vizsla could choose. But if you exercise a Vizsla well every day, give him/her something to do while you are away and discourage any digging as a puppy, then the dog shouldn't dig.4/12/2015 9:25:53 PM

As long as you have the funds to be able to support/take care of a pup and have enough time to take care of the pup, then go for it. The Vizsla breed is a great companion animal and really attach to one owner compaired to a whole family. However, using a long-lead in the beginning of your pups life with you while you are out will help teach him/her to stay closer to you. As well as spaying/neutering your pup anywhere between 6 -8 months will keep him/her from wanting to wander.12/2/2014 10:49:36 PM
As for exercise, the Vizsla breed needs about two hours of exercise a day for an adult dog. An hour in the morning and an hour at night. However, pups will only need 45 minutes of exercise a day and it can increase as the pip grows older. The Vizsla breed is very sensitive to its owner's voice and body language so contacting a Positive Reinforcement trainer in your area is the best thing to do. Going through puppy-socializing classes and positive reinforcement training classes will give you the tools to train your puppy. 12/2/2014 10:49:45 PM
Sounds to me like a Vizsla would fit you perfect. I've had my Ruby for three years. They seldom make a sound unless there is a good reason for it. They shed little. A Vizsla can be taught to hunt anything because they are very intelligent for a dog. They require a firm hand and plenty of exercise and attention.1/16/2015 7:32:41 PM
I have owned Vizslas for 20 years. Keep them active and they will be the best dog. Mine are trained to hunt iguanas in the florida keys. Love the breed, if active.5/27/2015 5:27:38 PM
The only way to know if your dog is a pure-bred or what breeds make up your dog is to have your dog DNA tested. You can buy them online or at your vet for an average cost of $45.00 - $85.00.7/16/2014 3:46:44 PM

It sounds like your pup has an allergy. A grain-free, high quality puppy food is the best thing to feed your dog. Some brands to look at are Acana, Origjn, Taste of the Wild, Life Mates, Now and Go!7/16/2014 3:48:12 PM
Try Nutro Natural Choice puppy.1/16/2015 7:36:18 PM
I use ultimate Diamond puppy and that is what the breeder told me to do and she is 3 months old and no diarrhea at all
They are thought to have descended from several types of pointers along with the Transylvanian Hound and the Turkish yellow dog (now extinct). "Vizsla" means "pointer" in Hungarian.7/16/2014 3:49:01 PM
That's backwards, the Vizsla is an ancient breed, from which some of the newer breeds were derived.1/16/2015 7:39:39 PM
I think the 2 dogs that breed a vizsla are a whippet and a pointer dog4/11/2015 10:49:06 PM
I am a Vizsla owner my dog is now 7. In our adventures we have run into other Vizsla owners where there's are going on 13 and 15 years of age. In reading on the breed we had found the longest life span was 17 years. The life of any dog would mainly have to work with the owner in the care and love for there pet. Hopefully this helped you. 11/23/2012 12:24:14 PM
My best advice is to lower any excitement when the peeing inside occurs. Simply stop what you are doing and take your vizsla out so he can do his business. Praise lavishly when he's finished so he knows outside is the proper place to eliminate. Are you on a firm schedule? Are you using the same door for every time he goes out? Remember a puppy can't truly control his bladder fully until he's six months. He should be going out every 2-3 hours if possible. 10/12/2012 9:17:27 PM

I have a 7 year old male Vizsla, who I have had since he was a puppy. He barks at strangers, but he has never ever attacked anyone. He is actually a bit of a baby, but he's got a ferocious bark, which would intimidate any attempted burglar in our home. He is great with children, VERY vocal, VERY much a lap dog and a lover. I highly recommend them but they need to be excercised daily as they can become a bit "needy" if they get bored. We go for 3 miles jogs together 3 days a week. 8/22/2012 8:55:31 PM
My Vizsla per say has never attacked anyone but there are some that he will not let near my family. He will bark and let you know not to trust them. Other than that he is very loveable. 11/23/2012 12:43:26 PM
No, vizsla's will be good alarms with their loud bark but they are soft dogs. They will fend off against small animals but not against humans.11/7/2012 7:12:28 PM
The Vizsla breed is an upland bird dog they are not meant for protection. There instinct is to hunt and point out potential kills for animals that you are hunting other than that no they are not meant as a guard dog. 11/23/2012 12:46:02 PM
Vizsla's are excellent watchdogs, but should not be used for it, they are family indoor dogs first. Our male would attack anyone entering the yard after dark and always checked who was coming in the house. Don't expect this of all of them as our female will sleep at night unless she senses something to chase.12/30/2013 1:00:08 AM
My Vizsla is 7 years old and I have been kittin sitting and he absolutley loves her and she likes him. At first he took her of course as a chew toy we would find her with slobber all over her but he never hurt her. We taught him to have a soft mouth so he won't hurt animals that he catches he just brings them back to us alive and nasty with slobber. He doesn't like other male dogs that have not been neuterd though he will fight with them over dominance of his area whether it is there land or not. I would actually take your dog to see what cat or kitten you want and let him help you decide on whether or not he likes them. You will be able to tell with the way he will act around them if it is a good idea or not. 11/23/2012 12:52:27 PM

I have had a vizsla for 8 years and we have had similar problems. She did not start to settle down until she was about 6, even though she does still have a lot of energy.
Some friends of ours have a vizsla and have a creative way of addressing the situation... a treadmill. I'm not quite sure how they went about training the dog, but he will run on the treadmill for an hour, twice a day. I wish I would have thought of this when our vizsla was young! 6/16/2012 9:20:15 PM
Hi - I have a 5 month old viszla and yes I am learning what a huge life change this is. My puppy has about 7 walks a day and one of her main ones is in a local park where there are lots of other dogs. She has formed friendships with some of them and plays hard which tires her out. The other thing I am doing is training her to accompany me on the bike. This is going well and, whilst it takes lots of practice to ensure no injuries or strains (i.e. the bike ride is solely about the dog not the bike) it's going to save our sanities over the coming years. She is a joy - but she could do with an army of carers! The bike and other dogs help a lot.10/9/2012 10:56:49 AM
I have noticed that this question was brought up about 6 months ago, you may be beyond what I can suggest, we have our Vizsla kennel trained. We did this with him since he was a pup. We put him in a kennel at night around 9 o'clock in the evening and shut off everything letting him know that at that time of night it was time to sleep or rest time. At first of course he didn't like it and there were some long nights but you have to keep with the consistancy of it and they do learn. He now goes to the kennel when he wants to get away from everyone. He is now 7 years old and is still just as hyper as he was when he was a puppy that never changed. We have been around others who also have a Vizsla and they are in there teens and still need to keep the energy going with them. 11/23/2012 1:02:28 PM
Treadmill saved my life. make sure they relieve themselves afteer about a mile take them potty aagaiin then another 2 miles. My vizsla would go on it every morning for me and sometimes in the late afternoon if AFTER the walks runs and ball time he was still nuts. We do triathlons, Husband runs him 15 miles 2 to 3 days a week, 7 minute pace and the dog is ready for more when he walks through the door not even panting. he will be 4 in October and has calmed a lot. plus, i am deaf, so I gave him a job, training to be service dog. I cant stress enough how important it is to work their minds, an hour in the mall with me does more than a 2 hour run. when he has to focus and pay attention and stay calm, it takes more out of him than a day in the woods ever could. I rescued him at 10 months so you can imagine with no training what this bullet of a dog was like...crazy6/29/2014 12:36:26 PM
I have 6 months old Vizsla female and she has so much energy. We take her usually once a day to the dog park for 1 hour (more or less depending on time available) and that does its magic. Also if you have time to take your dog somewhere for a walk off leash where she can actually run and feel free and pretend hunting, that will be helpful to. No matter how many walks on leash a day you make, they still need their 1 hour per day off leash running. Also, very important for these smart dogs is that you need to train their mind. Introduce him to words find and hide toys and treats around the house and have him find it. He will be so tired after that and you dont need to exercise. And somebody made really good point, they dont have turn off button, you need to give them time off in the crate, they will cry but crash after 5 min. Good luck!8/27/2014 9:44:45 AM
Walk them twice a day and remember to cover them up when sleeping. Vizsla's are happy and very smart dogs who communicate well through their facial (ears also) expressions and tail wagging. Mine will look at me, then what she wants and then back at me to let me know what she is thinking, I have been trained by her well!12/30/2013 1:10:26 AM
we also have a three yr old vizsla.he has had several seizure type incidents.its mainly when he wakes up or is falling asleep.he looks scared to death when it happens and it scared us as well.i just massage him or divert his attention on something else like by saying come on lets go for a walk.that snaps him out of it.i asked the doc and they said its ok as long as it doesnt happen all the time or very frequently.if it does they have to get on meds5/14/2012 12:44:53 AM
Unfortunately epilapsy is a known health issue in the Vizsla breed. Like cancer or hip dysplasia, their genetic background can make them prone to this problem. If you can I would go back to the breeder to see if it is in his line. It should be documented so this dangerous trait does not get passed to future generations. 10/12/2012 9:23:32 PM
my vizla sheds all the time,and hes seven. its natural and i think it never gets worse or stops hapenning. hes probably the first couch potato, they are supposed to be very active. mine is pure vizla though, so maybe its the weimeraner part of her...4/26/2012 6:37:52 PM
i vacuum the house over seven times a day and hired someone to vacuum out my vehicle. it was all back the next day. they shed bigtime and all the time every day of the year. i even use a furmanator every other day on him. there's still hair everywhere .but i just love him. the love is worth the vacuuming5/14/2012 12:50:22 AM
I have had three Vizslas and have never had a shedding issue, so it sounds like it might be a Weimaraner trait but it might just be her genetics. They are great loving family dogs so it's worth the trouble, maybe restrict her from some rooms?12/30/2013 1:07:01 AM
A vizsla would be a great choice! We have a 2 year old male and he is active, loyal, and definitely affectionate! They call them the "velcro" dogs for a reason!
Good luck!4/10/2012 10:15:12 PM
pitbulls are sweet and affectionate breeds. i applaud your mom, many think they are vicous. i used to have one. its the owners that train them to be bad. GET A PITBULL AND SPREAD THE WORD ON HOW WONDERFUL THEY REALLY ARE!!!!!4/26/2012 6:34:42 PM
Vizsla's are called the "Velcro" dog for a reason! A Vizsla will be by your side any chance he gets, any time of the day no matter what you are doing (bathroom included!) If you have the time to devote to a V, that is at least 1 hour of strenuous exercise, then I highly recommend this breed for you. I promise if you get one you will never be lonely again.10/12/2012 9:28:15 PM
A dog should go through at least 2 heat cycles and be 2 yrs old before breeding.4/19/2012 6:42:58 AM
i think it should be around 3,4,5. before they get too old. still young4/26/2012 6:38:48 PM
A Vizsla is a very sensitive dog. They yearn for human contact. If you are not prepared for that you should think twice about keeping it. It may get a little better when it is older, but it will still might howl (at least for a while) when u all leave house. The crate may also be stressing her - that might pass in time. Finally, though I think extremely unlikely you should have her checked for diabetes if the urination problem persists4/15/2012 10:30:46 AM
I have a 5 month old vizsla pup that finally just got it. Before that there was an accident every 5-10 min. Hang in there.
It was the hardest thing to do-walk away from my crying baby after I put him in his crate so I could go to work. (I work from my house so I could always hear the cries.) Have the will power to ignore it bc it will get better. She has to get used to being alone. And the crate will keep her safe. Remember Vizsla's are den animals so the crate is the perfect environment. It will work I promise. Just don't give in or she will know what it takes to get your attention and never learn to like the crate/be alone.10/12/2012 9:38:16 PM

The point of your puppy's rump should not show. One rib showing is usually a good weight. You should feed to your puppy's conditioning, not to any set of rules. Vizslas can have very different metabolism rates.4/16/2012 1:41:29 PM
my vizsla is the sweetest dog, she loves
playing with dogs at the dog park, she is
not aggressive at all, she loves playing with
my sons dog, and my daughters dogs, but when
she is not at the dog park off leash,when
im walking her on the leash, she hates other
dogs that she doesnt know, and will try to
go after them, she changes completly from the
sweet friendly dog, to a mean aggressive dog.
my vet says that when she is on the leash and
i am walking her, she may feel confined, and is trying to protect me from the other dog
I dont get it, but she is not partial to a
certian breed
go after them2/1/2012 8:51:06 PM
a shock collar w/ wireless transmitter worked for us, even when the batteries went dead our vizsla stayed in the back yard. We had to take the collar off for her to find courage to go through the gate to the front yard1/25/2012 7:12:46 PM
Praise your Vizsla when he comes downstairs with small treats and show him each room with you entering first to show that it is your territory and it is safe12/13/2011 10:57:08 PM
How old is your Vizsla ? If he is up in age he may have started to develop arthritis and thus the stairs are painful and difficult. Additionally, have the Vet check him for vision problems4/15/2012 10:33:59 AM
Age is important. There can be fear stages at 14-17 months, which can cause your dogs syptoms. Or, old age with sore joints. 4/16/2012 2:26:14 PM
They breed Vizslas everywhere, although the breed originated in Hungary.10/18/2011 9:14:27 PM
Vizsla's are easier to find in Europe. We bought ours from Germany but both parents were born in Hungary. 11/9/2011 6:22:10 AM
She sounds like an alpha want to be - If she tends to push your buttons or act like Queen Sheba around the house would be confrming actions. She needs the security of knowing her place. The best thing you can do is be a good alpha and she should calm down. Give her a job and make her do it.4/16/2012 2:31:02 PM
Note: We provide the only safe marketplace for Vizsla breeders to list puppies for sale to rehome their purebred dogs. Breeders listing puppies for sale on Next Day Pets are required to verify their identity for your protection.

|ACH Observes Sickle Cell Awareness Month
Every September, All Children's Hospital observes Sickle Cell Awareness Month. In the common variations of this inherited blood disorder, the red blood cells change shape - from a round shape to a "c" or "sickle" shape, causing red blood cells to clump together. This interferes with the normal circulation of healthy, oxygenated blood through the patient's body. Sickle cell does not prevent people from enjoying a full and active life! This year All Children's Hospital is also helping by promoting registration in the Be The Match Blood and Marrow Donor Registry.
Did You Know...
Learn more about Sickle Cell Disease in our Health Information library, from the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Sickle Cell Awareness feature, or from the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America. Educational resources for children with Sickle Cell Disease can be found at sicklecellkids.org.

Hey all, I'm hoping you'll check out the first SuperFogeys arc, "Insane Romance From Hell!!"
Here's a link to go to the first SuperFogeys strip and you can just click through them from there all the way to strip 28 where this first storyline just wrapped up:
The SuperFogeys Chapter 1 - Insane Romance From Hell!!
Anyways, would love to hear any feedback or advice you all have on how the strip is progressing.

Sorry, I've been neglecting my backlog of blatant opinionizing. I've commented on your comic before. That archive's issue I commented on last time is a serious thing because I just did it again.
Right now, the header looks like it's for your comic, so when I click on it, instead of going to your archives, I go to a collective archive place.
I know you don't want to remove the archive button/header at the top of your page, but try putting in a seperator bar. Copy the pixel-strips header, make your own similar header, and post that imediately below their header.
That way, when people see two headers they'll think "Golly gee,
two headers
, one must be for the comic, one must be for some sort of comic alliance!" That should help fix the problem.

Aw, if you don't get posts on here, it means your strip ain't terrible.
Everyone's ready to pounce on the terrible stuff.
I kinda like it! Just had a read through the archives: the art is decent, the characters are kinda sweet, the humour made me smile, (which is the most any gag strip ever gets out of me...
) and the idea seems to be original n quirky.
Crits - get your archives sorted out...only the first part of each link is clickable, I almost thought it was a list of 'yet to come' episodes, and were it not for my moving the mouse a bit...
Make the whole line a link and maybe put the numbers (episode/strip 1, 2 etc) at the beginning.
The only other thing that bugs me is the use of
italics and bold
in the
...as someone who's become
fed up with this through
Dreamland Chronicles
...it really does tend to
and read
Your jokes are pretty good as they
, you don't need to
But, overall, a promising start. I'll keep an eye on it - and I love Spy Gal

Post subject: Thanks for the great critiques
I really appreciate you both taking the time to comment on the strip now that it's finished its first arc.
I feel your frustration when it comes to the archiving of the strips. Unfortunately, there just isn't anything I can do about the presentation. Pixelstrips is a site that was around long before I came to it and I have no control over any of the things you mentioned in your comments. All I am able to do is upload a strip and give it a description. Everything else is out of my hands. Still, I think I will be talking to the site admin soon to see if there's anything that can be done to clean things up a bit.
As for the comments on the strip itself...thanks! Saying that the SuperFogeys brought a smile to your face is exactly the reaction I'm hoping for. My strip isn't earth-shattering stuff, just (hopefully) funny characters in a (hopefully) funny setting.
As for the bolding of the text...that's one I haven't heard before. I can see where it would be annoying if the bolds are stopping you dead in your tracks as you read. I've always liked them in comics because I've never processed them the way ElnJJ seems to. I don't even realize it when they're there. Their impact is much more sublimal for me.
The real reason I employ them isn't to place emphasis on the joke, but to break the text up so it doesn't all "turn gray/" It's a design choice.
Still, you comments have caused me to rethink my method of doing it. Why, the strip I lettered just this morning (to be posted this coming Thursday) has much less frequent use of the bold lettering.
Webcomicking is something I'm still learning about, so I really do appreciate the comments. Thanks a bunch.

Aye, you're a good one - nice strip n you take crits. If you want some ad free fully customisable webspace, (no cost or whatnot, I just have lotsa free space.
) PM or email me, I can fix you up.
Though I don't know if pixelstrips is the work of friends of yours or something that gains a lot of exposure for your strip, so I understand if you wanna stay there.
I'm primarily a writer and English degree graduate, so I kinda have an eye for graphology. Anything erratic tends to strike me much more than it would others, (I imagine,) but I think your approach of simply toning it down is the ideal compromise.
Also, if you can get me a 200x40 banner (see my links pages,) I'd be happy to do an exchange with you.
Best of luck with your next story arc, I'm watching. ^_____^

Wow. That's extremely generous of you. I would love to do an exchange. I love your stuff, love the style. How can I get the banner to you? I'm not really sure how to code it to make it clickable back to me, so can I just give you the banner and ask you to link it for me? I'm assuming you have some code I can copy/paste for yours.
As for Pixelstrips. It kind of went like this:
1. I knew nothing about webcomics.
2. I started a comic strip on my MySpace blog to see if I could do it.
3. It got wildly popular.
4. I googled "webcomic hosting sites" and Pixelstrips was one of the first that popped up.
5. I submitted to Pixelstrips to see if they would include me on their site.
6. They did.
The End
SuperFogeys is only about 6 months old, but I love doing it and I feel like I'm getting better at it as time wears on.
I haven't given any great thought to getting the SuperFogeys their own site, but I imagine that's something I'll want to do eventually if I really want it to take off. Right now, Pixelstrips has been good to me and that's been how I've gotten eyeballs on it.
Your offer is very generous, and if you don't mind I'd like to take a rain check on it because I do think that's something I'll want to do eventually.
Sound good?

Yah rain checks are fine by me. ^^ Course, meanwhilst, I could also set you up with an independent mirror site if you want.
Like I said, get a 200 x 40 banner image, and email it to me (email@example.com) and I'll send you a return banner and the necessary code-y stuff.

An independent miror site is just another site where you would host your comic. This helps prevent an overwhelming amount of traffic to your main site, and this one ElnJJ is offering should give you some more control over how you present your work, i.e. how the site looks and operates. It's mighty kind of her to do that.
As for the strip, I love it, I'm bookmarking it, and it's very likely the next comic I write up over at Bomb Shelter Comics and Way of the Geek.

So a mirror site just feeds off of what I have going on over at Pixelstrips? Is that how it works?
SuperFogeys is also set up over at HumorousMaximus.com, but they're kind of a newer site and the control is still forthcoming there. Eventually they'll have blogs and such and I think that sort of thing would be really useful. Right now, the
SuperFogeys MySpace Group
is the only way I have to reach out to fans. It would be nice to have another place to do that because not everyone is on MySpace (it only seems like it).
Sean, your enthusiasm and support is appreciated. I can't wait to see your write-ups. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know. Thank you so much for liking the strip!

Almost. A mirror site is just another site where you post your comics, kind of like a second home. Some people who host their comics on Drunkduck, a free comic hosting service, will have their own site where they post thier comics. It's kind of like owning two houses and living in both of them.

Okay, then excuse me for being a dunce here--but how would that be different from what ElnJJ first offered to me?
I hope this isn't coming off as ungrateful. I'm totally blown away by the offer! I just have some loyalty issues and I want to make sure I wouldn't be taking anything away from Pixelstrips.

It's basically the same thing - only with DrunkDuck/Comic Genesis you get ads on your pages, but you join a webcomic based community which as Sean said, can split your traffic and also perhaps help with comic exposure.
What I've offered is the same thing, only ad free - you could duplicate your entire website somewhere else - of course you would also be able to leave it on pixel strips - but this would allow you to have another version that is more customisable, (to which, say, you could direct people who found the current archive set up annoying...
) I can help you out with coding if you like and give you ftp access, then it'd be a case of experimenting.
But it's entirely up to you.
PS. Sean - any chance you'd do a write up for The Broken Mirror sometime?

Thanks for walking me through it. Yeah, that sounds really cool. It seems clear that there's a certain audience that would prefer an easier-to-navigate set-up. I can't thank you enough, ElnJJ (must find out your real first name) for being so kind to me.
I'll PM you with that banner and we can hash this out. I'm definitely going to need help with the coding as I am HTML illiterate.

Braemar: Frequenty Asked Questions
You probably have questions about RCN and Braemar. These FAQs will give you many of the answers you need.
What is RCN?
RCN has been a customer-focused technology leader in the DC metro area for over 10 years. With superfast high-speed Internet service, an impressive digital TV lineup, including over one hundred high-definition channels, and highly reliable digital phone service, our fiber-optic network is built for innovation.
What was the "network transition" and "network upgrade"?
The network transition replaced the existing analog cable service, previously provided by Gatehouse, with RCN analog service. The transfer of the franchise from Prince William County took place at the end of April 2010. The Network Upgrade began soon after the Network Transition. From July to September 2010, RCN completed the upgrade to an all-digital platform so that improved cable, Internet and phone services could be provided to your home.
What is RCN's plan for the existing facility located at the Dunbarton clubhouse?
RCN requires a presence in the community to distribute our signal. At this time, RCN has placed the hub within the existing space in the Dunbarton Clubhouse and continues to work closely with the Dunbarton HOA to enhance the reliability of the facility.
Were modifications to the homes required to deliver service?
Modifications were required for some homes to support transition to RCN services and enable network diagnostic capabilities. These home modifications occurred at the node outside of the home and the network interface device, which is typically located in the garage. RCN does not anticipate any underground digging at any private homes.
How does RCN tie in to the existing OnQ and Verizon wiring panels?
The existing OnQ and Verizon wiring panels were designed to facilitate broadband services in the home and will work with RCN's service. Connections to them will look much as they do today. Few, if any, of these connections will need to be touched.
Will my HOA fee increase?
HOA fees do not increase due to RCN replacing Gatehouse. Rate increases are governed by the existing contracts, which limit digital TV and Internet services increases to the Producer Price Index (PPI).
What is included in my HOA Cable & Internet Fee?
The core HOA services are bulk digital TV service and high-speed Internet service. At the time of RCN's network upgrade, digital TV service included RCN Signature Digital TV + up to 4 standard digital converter boxes and bulk Internet service at 1.5 Mbps with a standard modem rental. Bulk Internet service has since been increased to 5 Mbps download speed for all HOAs. Applicable franchise fees and taxes are included.
Transition and Upgrade Questions
How did my existing TV service change after the network upgrade?
After the network upgrade, RCN provided all-digital TV service. An RCN-supplied digital converter box or CABLECARD is required for any TV accessing RCN service. RCN has a number of converter box options available, ranging from a standard device providing access to the full digital channel line-up and Video On Demand capabilities, as well as access to advanced HD and digital video recorder (DVR) capabilities. RCN will broadcast all channels in a digital format.
What do I need to do if I am an existing user of satellite television?
RCN digital services should have no impact on existing satellite television service. If you would like to request installation of RCN services, please call 1.866.255.8181 and select option #2 to request RCN digital services.
What do I need to do if I want to start RCN service?
Please call 1.866.255.8181 and select option #2 to request RCN digital services.

Can I increase my High-Speed Internet speed?

Additional Internet features include: static IP addresses, additional e-mail accounts, additional dynamic IP address as well as McAfee suite services, including virus protection, spam filter, privacy service, personal firewall, and increased data storage.
Can I add RCN phone service?

Springbok discard Pedrie Wannenburg inspired the Bulls to a 39-24 victory in their Absa Currie Cup match at Ellis Park on Saturday.
After an unconvincing 18-16 win against the Valke at Loftus last weekend, this was the perfect result for outgoing coach Heyneke Meyer.
The Lions were competitive in the first half, but the Bulls took charge in the second and claimed a bonus point by scoring five tries.
Wannenburg was the best player on the park and showed that his Bok days are far from over.
The Lions got off to a good start when left wing Louis Ludik regathered his own chip ahead to score his side's first try.
Morne Steyn kicked a penalty to keep the Bulls in the game and when another Bok reject, Tim Dlulane, reached out to score with 10 minutes to go until half-time, the visitors grew in confidence.
Morne Steyn grabbed another try just before the break to put the Bulls 15-11 in front, although Mark Harris responded with a penalty to reduce the gap to just one point.
Left wing Marius Delport struck a crucial blow four minutes after the interval when he beat several Lions defenders to score the Bulls' third try.
Harris again kept the Lions in touch with a penalty, but when Wannenburg went over for the bonus-point try the result was put beyond doubt.
A try from Jaco Engels made it 39-17 to the Bulls, although Harris went over on the stroke of full-time to add some respectability to the scoreline.
Lions - Tries: Louis Ludik, Mark Harris. Conversion: Mark Harris. Penalties: Harris (4).
Bulls - Tries: Tim Dlulane, Morne Steyn, Marius Delport, Pedrie Wannenburg, Jaco Engels. Conversions: Steyn (3), Jacques-Louis Potgieter. Penalties: Steyn (2).
