Reviews From Guests
Sîan and Paul are great hosts, they make you feel very welcome in their lovely house in Canton and share a lots of information about where to go and places to eat. The room was nice and quiet and I enjoyed their breakfast with real homemade bread and toast. Good location in a beautiful area if your depending on public transport.
Wonderful place to stay in Cardiff. We only met Sian but she was very welcoming and she answered gladly to all our questions. The house and the neighborhood were beautiful and near the city centre.
We were thoroughly pleased with our accommodations! Sian and Paul's home is perfectly located - it's just a short 20 minute walk into the city center. Sian and Paul are lovely hosts and we enjoyed our lovely breakfasts chatting away. We loved the 3rd level bedroom with the delightful breeze that come through the rooftop sky windows - and the entire home is very clean and welcoming. We also liked that there was free street parking and easy in and out access to the city. We would not hesitate to stay with them again if we ever are back in Cardiff.
The house is beautiful, clean, bright, quiet, easy access, convenient, and so forth, we could not have asked for more. We also saw parts of Cardiff through Sian's eyes, a native's perspective, which enriched our experience of this Welsh Capital immensely.
We have just had the most delightful 3 day break in Cardiff, staying 2 nights with Sian. Sian is the perfect hostess, welcoming us like old friends as soon as we arrived! The house is immaculate and cosy, the bedroom and ensuite exactly what we wanted. Bed was very comfortable and breakfast to our tastes. My awkward dietary needs were well catered for and Sian's enthusiasm for and knowledge of the local area enhanced our stay. We would recommend this accommodation to any one.
Really a nice home. Spacious bedroom, bathroom, dinning room. The breakfast is awesome. And Sian is very friendly, and she has a good collection of local information sheet and map.
Sian was a delightful hostess. Interested in her guests and very helpful. A cheerful face to come home to. I loved my attic room. Slept like a log.
We recieved a very warm welcome from Sian with a lovely cuppa and a big book full of ideas what to do and see in and around Cardiff. It is the perfect place to explore Cardiff as all the mayor sights seem to be in walking distance. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast every morning and some very nice conversations. If we come to Cardiff again this is definitely the place we would like to stay.
This was the first time I have used Airbnb and I was really impressed with the whole process, I can't wait to use it again!
My mum and I stayed at Paul and Sian's for one night and took both rooms. We felt very welcomed and Sian gave us lots of info about Cardiff. The rooms were spotless, the beds very comfortable and our showers hot. We'd recommend their accommodation to anybody visiting Cardiff.
Reviews From Hosts
Sian and Paul have spent two and a half months in my apartment. They were extraordinary guests ! Friendly people and nice as we dreamed to meet ! They got to us very kind attentions. We talked a lot and it was a wonderful and rewarding experience. During their stay, they gave us news by mail, it was very nice of them. They are caring people, they took great care of the apartment, we can't expect better ! Everything was perfect ! We hope to see them again soon in France or Cardiff in their charming guest house.
Paul had for sure communication problem, also because he decided to use personal mail instead of airbnb messages. Everything was explained in the description, also the number of my friend that helps me in receiving the guests. I told him to look at the Host's Directions... He didn't ask me about anything in the apartment before his arrive and he expected that everything was indicated on request could be immediately available for him. As host i'm not his serve, and I have not only one apartment, so I have to organize everything. He told me was his first experience as guest, he is also host in Airbnb and I hope he is more comfortable as host than guest. My first bad experience as host in Airbnb. Pay attention...

Paul and Sian were recommended to me by a neighbour of there's and I stayed with them for 2 weeks before they signed up with Airbnb. Their house is beautifully restored Victorian terraced house in a pretty crescent. It's located in an interesting part of Cardiff and within easy walking distance of the city centre and lots of restaurants as well as the Chapter Arts centre. I stayed in their converted en suite attic room which is spacious and extremely comfortable. Paul and Sian also sometimes offer extras such as an evening meal which on every occasion was extremely tasty. I enjoyed their company very much but they are also just as happy for their guests to spend time on their own. There is wifi in the bedrooms. I also, one summer evening, went cycling with Paul along the Taff Trail to Cardiff Bay which was huge fun and a great way to see the city. Highly recommended.
Having lived in this house for over 10 years I have enjoyed the delights of its restored Victorian periodic features. It has been a wonderful house to grow up in and still a place I return to relax and enjoy the company of my family. I has been frequently said that I can eat my family 'out of house and home', one of the main reasons being that the food is so good. If you do not believe me then why not try it yourself. The house is in a perfect location (15mins walk) to the city centre which is somewhere I like to call home. The up and coming city has lots to offer from sport attractions such as Cardiff Arms Park and the millennium stadium. There are also lots of shops, bars and restaurants to chose from too.

West of the city of Colorado Springs, trees charred by the summer's wildfire scar the steep foothills. The Waldo Canyon fire destroyed more than 300 homes in June.
Now, that devastated neighborhood is coming back to life, with construction workers swarming over half-completed houses. While many of its former residents are preparing to move back, some just want to move on.
In the days after the fire devoured their homes, shell-shocked residents tried to wrap their minds around what had just happened to them.

Aurora, Colo., became a familiar name this summer, in the wake of a mass shooting at a local movie theater.
But there's much more to this Denver suburb than the recent tragedy. Just ask Ethiopian immigrant Fekade Balcha. Balcha's apartment, on Aurora's north side, sits in a dense neighborhood of squat brick apartment buildings and tiny homes.
"You see, in our apartment, there are Russians, Mexicans, Africans," Balcha says. "From Ethiopia, Somalia, Nigeria, and something like that."
As investigators dig deeper into Friday's mass shootings at a movie theater in the Denver suburb of Aurora, residents also are trying to piece together what happened and what it means for their city.
Aurora is Colorado's third-largest city, but it's probably not one many people had heard of before now.
Sitting in a cafe, life-long resident Joseph Nguyen says it's unfair his city will now be associated with the tragic attack that left 12 people dead and dozens more injured.

For a relaxing vacation in a sleepy Welch town, travelers need look no further than South America. A tour of Argentina's Patagonia region will no doubt stumble across one of the largest Welch communities outside of the U.K. a colony town known for its adherence to tradition and pride in its culture.
Breaks from the wild
One of the largest attractions in Patagonia is the Peninsula Valdes, a UNESCO world heritage site where southern right whales breed and orca, in an infamous display of predation, surf onto coastal shores to nab unsuspecting sea lions and seals. This violent form of theater may make some queasy - those who need a respite from the circle of life can take a trip to the well-manicured Gaiman, an outpost of Welch culture and traditions in the wild and beautiful region.
A quaint colony
More than a century ago, exploration and colonization led to the cross-pollination of European immigrants and native peoples, according to Frommer's. Gaiman itself was settled in the 1870s, and has ever since held on tightly to its heritage of two worlds. It is for this odd juxtaposition of Welch and Argentinean culture that most people travel to the region. Welch music and Argentinean folk tunes are blended together for a unique choir experience that draws in crowds the world over for an annual music festival. Residents speak Spanish first, but most can still respond just as easily in their ancestral Welch. High tea is even still upheld, even pulling in royalty for a taste - Princess Diana had tea there once in 1995, and the cup is still on display in a local museum. It is enough for many tourists, however, to simply wander the streets of the town, lined with English-style homes and charming hedges.
A taste of home
Another great appeal of Gaiman is the hospitality. According to Frommer's many of the houses are some form of quaint public space, taking the form of teahouses and small inns, and contributing to the sense of welcome that Gaiman provides.
The teahouses are worth a stop or three. Much of the food is based on homemade comfort recipes, according to Fodor's, and include delicious breads, scones and cakes. Argentinean influences make their mark, as some of these pastries and dishes are stuffed with dulce de leche. The spreads offered by these teahouses make for a full meal, so travelers should come hungry.
(San Antonio Valley, Lago Toro, Santiago)
What attracted Theroux, Darwin, Melville and even Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to Patagonia? Come see for yourself.
(Bogota, Cartagena, Santa Marta)
From the violet mist that shrouds the Andean mountains to the lush green of the jungle canopy and the sparkling turquoise of the Caribbean coast, you'll be seduced by the rich colors of Colombia.
(Bogota, Villa de Leyva, Medellin, Cartagena)
Deep beneath the streets of Zipaquira lies a marvel of engineering and artistic achievement so great that you'll be left speechless at the ingenuity of the human spirit.

I found this product to be a waste of money. We bought it hoping our dog would stop chewing his pads up. This did not help. Nor did it do any better at keeping a pad in place than good old gravity.
Pros: It holds the pad
Cons: So does gravity

The U.S. coal industry is facing an even more uncertain future as the impacts from weaker demand and environmental regulations are creating more contractual volatility from the utilities to the railroads, according to a recent report.
In its most recent Form 10-K, Alpha Natural Resources Inc., a major player in Central Appalachia coal markets, warned investors that the increasing difficulty of locking in long-term contracts could reduce the company's protection from short-term coal price volatility, according to a report by SNL Energy.
"Alpha said that in 2013, about 45 percent of its steam coal was delivered through long-term coal contracts," according to the report.
"In large part as a result of increasing and frequently changing regulation … and natural gas pricing, electric power generators are increasingly less willing to enter into long-term coal supply contracts, instead purchasing higher percentages of coal under short-term supply contracts," Alpha wrote in its filing. "This industry shift away from long-term supply contracts could adversely affect us and the level of our revenues."
Arch Coal Inc. expresses a similar concern in a section of its Form 10-K.
"Changes in the coal industry may cause some of our customers not to renew, extend or enter into new long-term coal supply agreements with us or to enter into agreements to purchase fewer tons of coal than in the past or on different terms or prices," the filing states. "In addition, uncertainty caused by federal and state regulations, including the Clean Air Act, could deter our customers from entering into long-term coal supply agreements."
According to an SNL Energy analysis of fuel contract data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration supplied on Form EIA-923, the prized long-term coal contract appears to have become more elusive in the past four years.
In March, 16 percent of coal delivered came from contracts with remaining terms beyond five years, down from 20 percent in the same period in 2010.
In increasingly competitive markets, a long-term coal contract can offer price, volume and earnings stability that allows companies to make long-term planning decisions regarding their mines.
"Obviously, any time you're producing any product, having the benefit of a long-term contract creates stability in production, employment, available resources to produce the product, etc.," Bill Bissett, president of the Kentucky Coal Association, told SNL Energy.
Peabody Energy Corp., a company that heavily utilizes long-term contracts, has seen some of its contracted position contract. According to its most recent Form 10-K, the company has seen its worldwide sales under long-term coal supply agreements shrink from 91 percent in 2011 to 80 percent by 2013.
Vic Svec, senior vice president of global investor and corporate relations at Peabody, told SNL Energy that contracts have become shorter, but the response to depleting inventories would vary based on whether the utility is a co-op, a regulated utility or an unregulated utility.
"They certainly could turn a little longer term in nature for the reasons like we saw this past winter, when inventories got low," Svec said. "Ultimately, it will be up to the generators — whose job is to provide reliable and low-cost electricity — to determine the right duration and decide this is how much they stay hedged. That will be very individualized."

Celtics practice notes
|01.24.09 at 3:12 pm ET
There was a media circus on Saturday at Health Point with several outlets taking advantage of what has become a rare Boston Celtics practice.
– Tony Allen, who has missed the last 10 games with an ankle injury, consistently knocked down long-range jumpshots after practice. However Doc Rivers, who does not get involved in the medical side of the game, has not been given the green light yet from Celtics trainer Ed Lacerte.
'I have no idea [how he's feeling],' Rivers said. 'He seems like he's doing well, smiling and laughing today. I didn't check updates. He's not playing so I just talk to him as a guy. I don't even ask him about the injury. So he's feeling good.'
– Rajon Rondo was also working on his jumpshot, a hot topic as of late. Rondo attests that Rivers has not asked him to spend any more time on his J than he usually does.
'In practice when I have the opportunity, I shoot it,' he said. 'But other than that I try to continue to do what I do best.'
– The Celtics spent an extra day in Florida on Friday after beating the Orlando Magic on Thursday night. Temperatures reached nearly 70 degrees in Orlando yesterday compared to 40 in Boston.
'It's great, any time you can stay in warm weather it's got to be good for the body, good for the soul,' Rivers said. 'The players wanted that and they earned it, so they got to stay.'
As for Rivers, he used the extra day to spend time with his family. 'I slept at home, I never saw the team,' he said before adding with a laugh, 'So it was perfect for me.'
– The Celtics will take on the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday at 1pm at the TD BankNorth Garden.
A Big All-Star Push
|01.23.09 at 9:47 am ET
When is there a possibility that 22 points and nearly 11 rebounds per game not good enough for an All-Star selection? When you play on the 13-27 Minnesota Timberwolves.
"Big Al" Jefferson has been quietly running up the leaderboards since being traded from the Boston Celtics in July of 2007. His performance, which includes 22 double-doubles, went relatively unnoticed in fan voting. So the T'Wolves are doing everything they can to make sure Jefferson receives the recognition he deserves in spite of their losing record.
The organization has less than a week to win the votes of the Western Conference coaches who will vote on All-Star reserves. They have developed a marketing campaign ' 'Big Al's Road Trip: Navigating his way to Phoenix' ' and mailed each coach a Sony GPS device. The devices have been named the 'Double-Double Machine' and play a highlight video set to Lupe Fiasco's 'Superstar.'
"It would mean a lot," Jefferson told the media. "Just growing up, before I even knew I was going to be an NBA player, just watching the All-Star games on TV you always wanted to be there as a kid. Me having that chance to make it, it would mean a lot to me. It's something I could talk about for the rest of my life."
All-Star reserves will be revealed next Thursday, January 29. Celtics Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo, and Kendrick Perkins are also on the Eastern Conference ballot. Kevin Garnett was named as a starting forward for the East.
Are the Magic a threat?
|01.23.09 at 12:01 am ET
The Orlando Magic had the best record in the East, so it was only fair to say they were the best team. At least that was the credit the Boston Celtics were giving them before Thursday's match up. But of the 41 games the Magic had played entering the game, only one had been against the Celtics. It was a loss.
The Magic have said they wanted to beat the best to be the best. In the last two seasons they lost to the Detroit Pistons early in the playoffs. Now the Celtics are the measuring stick in the East and after Thursday's 90-80 loss to the defending champs (RECAP HERE), the Magic have failed to stack up twice.
It's true the Magic haven't received all the recognition they deserve nearly halfway through the season. Despite winning 16 of their last 19 games, they have flown relatively low under the radar and the talk of the East is still LeBron James vs. the Celtics. But there is a reason for that. Even with one of the most dominating big men in the game, the Magic do not have what it takes to unseat the Celtics in the postseason.
There is no denying the power and talent of Dwight Howard. He is a beast on the glass and can body through the paint with authority. But the reality is Howard is 23, only three months older than Rajon Rondo. The Celtics point guard has three proven veterans to turn to whereas the veterans on the Magic turn to Howard.
On Thursday the Celtics held Howard scoreless for the entire second and third quarters. In that time he picked up four fouls and had to limit his defensive intensity late in the fourth before fouling out with 2:30 to go. The glaring question is, can Howard lead a team in a seven-game series?
Point Guard Play
Jameer Nelson is having a breakthrough year, averaging 17 points up from 11 last season, and is finally emerging as the point guard the Magic have been anticipating since 2004. However surging performances aren't always consistent. It's been said that as Rondo goes, so go the Celtics. The same can be said for Nelson and the Magic.
Rajon Rondo (through 44 games)
Wins: 11.9 PPG, 54.8% FG, 8.2 APG, 5.1 RPG, 2.5 PF
Losses: 7.0 PPG, 32.4% FG, 7.3 APG, 4.1 RPG, 3.0 PF
Jameer Nelson (through 36 games)
Wins: 18.1 PPG, 54.4% FG, 52.1% 3PG, 5.7 APG, 2.9 PF
Losses: 12.9 PPG, 37.4% FG, 19.4% 3PG, 4.0 APG, 4.1 PF
Long-Range Game
The Magic are the best three-point shooting team in the league. They hit an NBA-record 23 treys this month against the Sacramento Kings and entered Thursday's game shooting 53.9% 3PG in their last five match ups. At some point, though, legs get tired and the finesse can fade, especially in a six or seven-game series.
The Magic's leading three-point shooter Rashard Lewis may be dangerous from inside and out, but he wasn't a threat when he only shot one-for-four from long range against the Celtics. The team as a whole shot 7-for-22, which was actually worse than the Celtics 0-for-6 performance. The Cs compensated for their slump by going inside. The Magic, on the other hand, lived and died by the deep three.
The Celtics weren't wrong for giving the Magic credit. They are one of the hottest teams in the league centered around one of the most exciting players to watch. But the season isn't even halfway over and the Magic are not prepped for a title run just yet. They wanted to beat the best in the playoffs to be the best, but the first step is beating the best in the regular season.
One less option
|01.22.09 at 3:16 pm ET
When rumors began buzzing about the Boston Celtics need for a back up center. Alonzo Mourning's name had been mentioned in the mix of veteran big men. On Thursday, Mourning put those rumors to rest when he announced his retirement from basketball.
"I truly feel it's best that I retire," Mourning said at his press conference. "When you've got something you love and you're passionate about, it's hard to let that go. But at 38, I feel I've physically done all I can for this game. It has been an amazing ride.'
Mourning had been rehabbing from a knee injury he suffered over a year ago with the Miami Heat. The 15-year veteran, who had already overcome a kidney disease to win an NBA championship in 2006, decided to leave the game with a positive attitude.
"It's not a sad day, but it's a day to celebrate,' he said. 'I can think of a million people right now that would have loved to walk the path I've walked. The ups and the downs made it even more joyous."
In addition to Mourning, the Dikembe Mutombo and Joe Smith were also mentioned as possible acquisitions for the Celtics. Mutombo re-signed with the Houston Rockets in December after losing patience with Cs. Smith is still under contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Walker committed to Boston
|01.22.09 at 12:10 am ET
Bill Walker has close ties to his community. So close, in fact, that he tattooed the numbers of his childhood address on his neck. When the Boston Celtics rookie got recalled from the NBA Development League this month, he was eager to give back to the city he's now calling home.
Last weekend Walker, along with Kendrick Perkins, Gabe Pruitt, and J.R. Giddens, served home-cooked meals to 150 men and women at the Boston Rescue Mission. The food was prepared by members of the Celtics staff as part of the Shamrock Foundation.
'[The best part was] just them being so happy that we're there,' Walker said. 'Just being somebody who actually could take enough time to come down there and just sit and talk with them, serve them food, things like that. Little things like that do mean a lot to people.'
Boston is one of the many places where Walker, 21, wants to make a difference. Even though he is just starting his NBA career, he already has made plans for years to come.
'That's just something I want to do when I'm done with basketball, just to try to help the communities that I'm in first and then expand,' Walker said. 'So that was just fun, going back and trying to cheer up a couple people.'

Celtics-Heat Reactions
|01.21.09 at 10:43 pm ET
Here's something that I'm almost positive has not happened this season to the Boston Celtics this year. At one point in the third quarter, the Miami Heat scored on 10 of 11 possessions. You can't score in practice on 10 of 11 possessions.
At the end of that run that saw Dwyane Wade score 10 points and had Mario Chalmers and Michael Beasley playing like they were back in the Big 12 against Iowa State, the Heat still trailed by 11 points. That made it the strangest of NBA occurrences: a relatively close blowout.
It didn't last all that long because the thing with having a lead that size is that one nice push the other way and it's game ovah, which is exactly what happened when Ray Allen started dropping bombs in the fourth. (Click here for a full recap).
So, the Celtics wrapped up their sixth straight win. Kendrick Perkins got some much needed court time before facing down Dwight Howard Thursday night and the starters kept their minutes down. All in all, a pretty decent night for the C's who are now 35-9 and back in first place in the Eastern Conference (albeit by a half game over the Magic and not by winning percentage where Orlando has a slight edge).
A six-pack of observations:
1. Free Eddie House!
House got his NBA career started in Miami where he developed something of a cult following and I vaguely recall a story where Pat Riley's daughter was spotted sporting a Free Eddie House! t-shirt. Riles should have listened.
House has not had the greatest of shooting seasons, but last night's line (9-for-15 from the floor, 7-for-11 from 3-point range) proves why he is so valuable. You just can't afford to leave the man open. Of course, that's exactly what Miami did time and again playing some of the laziest perimeter D seen this year. The Celtics made 15-of-25 3-pointers (15-of-25!) and most of them were of the wide-open nolo contendre variety.
2. The Good, the Bad, the Rondo
Rajon Rondo scored only seven points and took just seven shots, but he knocked down a 3-pointer in rhythm from the top of the key with the shot clock winding down. That's good. He also passed up several shots inside, forcing passes to big men that weren't really there. That's bad.
Rondo beat his man whenever he wanted to and wound up with 10 assists. That's good. He also had five turnovers, including four in the first quarter. That's bad.
Raw +/- stats are only superficially useful. They don't take into account context, score or pace, but for a one-game snapshot they can me somewhat interesting and tonight the Celtics were +23 when Rondo was in the game. (That's good).
3. Kendrick Perkins Had Some Rust
Perkins played 23 minutes, scored just two points and for the first 18 or so of those minutes looked like a guy who hadn't played in a week and a half, which was to be expected. But in the last five he grabbed every rebound and generally made himself a menace to any Heat players who wanted to get down the lane.
It was a solid run for Perk who now has to face Orlando's monster-child Dwight Howard 24 hours later.
Interestingly, Brian Scalabrine who played so well in place of Perkins, stayed in the rotation in the first half, getting 22 minutes on the floor total. Big Baby Davis played well when he got his chance in the second half. I'll be curious to see if Scal keeps a spot in the bench rotation after playing so well and if anyone's time suffers as a result.
4. Miami Cold
For reasons that I will keep to myself, I have spent a decent amount of time in the town of Manhattan, Kansas aka The Little Apple and the home of Kansas State University. It was always a curious thing that Michael Beasley wound up there, for while it is a underrated spot of midwest terra firma, it ain't exactly UCLA.
You could see all the good stuff in Beasley's game. The left-handed jumper, the quickness off the floor, the scoring instinct, etc. You could also see the kid needs work, especially on the defensive end. He's a nice talent, however, and along with D-Wade just about the only two things I liked about this Miami team.
Granted, Shawn Marion hurt himself on a missed dunk (thus delaying the trade rumors for a little while), and it's possible that the Celtics just caught them on a bad night, but the Heat shot way too many 3's and got crushed on the boards. Erik Spolestra is either the best coach in the league, or D-Wade is playing even better than we thought, but it's hard to believe that Miami is playing better than .500 ball.
5. Stephon Marbury to Greece?
This is one of those there-is-no-way-it'll-happen stories, but it's out there. Apparently a Greek team has expressed an interest in Stephon Marbury and contacted the Knicks about trying to work out a deal. (Now here comes the joke about how the Knicks would trade him for a box of Souvlaki.)
Marbury apparently hasn't been in contact with the team, however, and a move to Greece doesn't seem likely. The pressure has been turned down on the bench a little and at this point, Marbury seems more like an illusion than a reality.
6. How Important is the Orlando Game?
For the Celtics, mildly. It's a chance for them to show the rest of the NBA (the game is on TNT) that they are still the baddest dudes on the block. They wiped out Orlando earlier in the year–who was playing without Jameer Nelson and generally solidified the opinion that the Magic are a nice, but not great, team.
Since then the Magic have gone 20-3 and riding a seven-game winning streak. For them, it's a big game. They played well against the Celtics last year and a win would help give them some credibility.
Cousy's All-Star history
|01.21.09 at 8:57 am ET
On Thursday the 2009 NBA All-Star teams will be revealed. While a lack of fan votes has put Rajon Rondo's selection in question, it was 55 years ago today that another Celtics PG made his mark on the game. On January 21, 1954, Bob Cousy scored 10 of his 20 points in overtime to lead the East to a 98-93 win. It was the first overtime in All-Star history. Cousy won All-Star MVP honors and appeared in 13 All-Star Games over his career.
The 2009 All-Star teams will be announced on TNT prior to the Celtics-Magic game.

Macbook screen goes black while active
This has been happening for the past 2 weeks or so. Periodically, while I am actively using the computer (browsing the web, typing in word, etc.). The screen goes black, as if it is sleeping, but I am in the middle of doing something, the computer is not idle. The only way to "wake it up" is to plug it in. Though, the last time it did this, it was plugged in, and I had to shut it down by holding down the power button, because it was otherwise unresponsive.
The battery is not low, no warning has come up about using reserve power, or needing to plug in.
It is very frustrating!
What is happening, and how can I fix it?
Should I just call applecare, or bring it in?
|Mar 17, 2008, 12:46 AM
I am having a similar issue. Mine starts OK (usually...), but if I happen to even jiggle it in the slightest way when it's un use (even typing on the keyboard), the screen goes black and it appears to be unresponsive, although it is still on as witnessed by the sounds coming from fans and whatnot inside.
Did you get your issue resolved? Mine's gotten to the point that I can't really use the computer anymore (luckily, I have another), so I'll probably take it to an Apple Authorized Repair Center when I go home for sping break in a few days. (There aren't any anywhere near my school. Both home and school are in Iowa. )

macbook screen goes black
i have an original black macbook. Lately the screen goes black. I can barely see that the laptop is still running and has not crashed. Closing and opening the laptop usually works. Not sure why this is happening but I think resetting the pram might help.
|Apr 3, 2009, 11:11 AM
Hi, I just had to ressurect this thread. I have a 1-year old black macbook running 10.5.5, and just tonight I had the same exact problem - when running on battery power, if I move for a bit, the screen will go blank for a few seconds.... and magically turn itself back on again. I can tell my computer is still running and when the screen turns back on nothing seems to have changed. This does not happen a lot for the moment...
Plugging into power resolves this - no blackouts. Still I am bugged and worried!
Also, at that time, my bluetooth can't be activated. So I restarted and hold down command+option+P+R (?) as someone suggested and now my bluetooth is fine, but I still have this black screen problem.
What should I do? Warranty expires soon.

Any solutions to this problem yet? My MacBook just did this tonight for the first time. The screen was active, and then it just went black. I tried to move the mouse and hit some buttons, but the computer didn't do anything. I restarted a couple of times and the start-up screen would be on for about 2-5 seconds, then it would go black. The computer was unresponsive. I held down the power button (but not long enough for a manual shut-down), and then the login screen popped up, but my mouse would not function and then the screen turned black again.
Prior to this, my computer has never turned black while active. Although, it has on many occasions stayed black after opening the lid. The only thing to do in those situations was to manually shut down and restart. During all of these problems and the new one tonight, the computer was running on AC power.
Any advice would be much appreciated!

erm.. don't like this black screen thing!!
Having the same issue..
My Macbook pro running Tiger 10.4.11 is now starting to do the black screen thing. I am running my macbook pro, plugged into the AC / Mains, with another monitor connected, when the macbookpro screen goes black the dual monitor stays up and running, I can even do the mirror screen from the actual macbook pro and run it on the dual monitor and its running perfectly (I hope this makes sense!).
Its really odd and only started in the last few days.. it lasts about 30seconds at a time and is starting to worry me!
Any answers to this??
All the best,

Screen goes Blank - me too!
I've got a macbook pro (2.6ghz) with Snow Leopard (3gb ram) and it's doing the same thing. I can have it plugged into external power or battery or external monitor or just the screen and it does the same thing. Randomly the screen goes blank for 3 to 5 seconds then comes back on. Everything else is fine. It happens VERY infrequently but it is still REALLY annoying. I have the ATY,RadeonX1600 chipset. There are no updated drivers other than what comes from Apple.
|Nov 28, 2009, 12:12 AM
it sounds to me like all of you have an issue with the battery power reaching the monitor. There might be a disconnect between the battery and the LCD. A short. Or the OS can't handle what you are doing on battery power alone, and has to reserve energy from the biggest draw which is the LCD.
I would check the battery life, since some are older models, and take them in for advice at a Genius Bar.

Having the same issue here with the Black Macbook2,1
Starting as of this week, screen goes black within a couple of seconds after power up. The macbook seems unresponsive as well since the num light or caps lock light won't go on, I have to hold power and restart. It can do that 3 or 4 times in a row, then it would stay up in running as long as I whish.
The link shown above do not apply to my older macbook, and cannot find any more info apart from this thread.
I am running the latest leopard 10.5.8
It also happened while it was plugged in.
this link : http://discussions.apple.com/thread....readID=2230639
actually shows the same problem, but there is no valid answer.

Hey guys, I had the sae problem about 8 months back. It would go black randomly, for a few seconds or minutes. After a few weeks of that, it went black and would never return to normal. took it to a mac-authorized repair shop and they fixed it free of charge.
apparently it's a known video-card issue - not big enough for a recall, but they will fix it outside of warranty for free. mine was 1.5 years outside of warranty, had it back, fixed, in 3 days free of charge.

MAC Screen goes black
I am having the same issue. I have an iBook G4, have never had any problems what-so-ever and recently the screen is going black when i am in the middle of doing something. Weird part of all is that this does not happen while i am using it with the battery power. Only happens when i am plugged to the electricity. Anybody knows why this could be happening? I ckecked, just in case, the energy settings and it is not related to that.
Thanks in advance for any useful tip.
|Apr 21, 2010, 02:40 PM
I have been having the same problem. It happened two months ago and it happened when I moved my screen. THen within the last three to two weeks it would go black with working on it. It actually happened this morning but now my macbook is working fine. I have the aluminum macbook and got it last May. I don't know what to do, I am scared I have a virus.
When the macbook goes black I normally hit the power key and it will come back on and then it will go black and I Will do the same thing but then after about 5 times, it will go black and not turn back on. I shut it down by holding the power button and let it sit for an hour or so then it will work fine. Any ideas as to what it could be. Help!!

Quick solution for black screen on MacBook
So yesterday I was doing some research online, when all of a sudden my Macbook's screen went dark! Too dark that it was impossible to see what was on the screen. The next day I turned it on and it was still too dark, useless!
My solution: while it was on, I pressed the power bottom for 10 seconds to turn it off completely, then unplugged the cable, removed the battery, and waited 5 mins. Then I put back the battery and turned it on, and IT WORKED fine again!
Hope this can help some of you!
|Jun 21, 2010, 04:51 PM
unplug power
Thank you for this suggestion. I was trying to repair my daughter's machine and the screen kept going black. I could see the windows barely but couldn't find the mouse. Taking out the battery and unplugging it seems to have worked, at least for the moment.

i will be taking my 2007 macbook pro to the mac store tomorrow
for the black/blank screen issue
the rep read back this article to me:
i will update again tomorrow!

I had the same problem, and while looking at this post on my secondary display, I figured out how to get my primary screen back: F2.
You have to re-illuminate your screen. That's what solved it for me.
|Nov 10, 2010, 04:32 AM
My brand new MacBook Pro 13 (10.6.3, bought last week) is showing the exact same symptoms of going momentarily black for no apparent reason. My previous Pro 15 did the same thing right up until its logic board blew up last week. Clearly, Apple hasn't fixed the basic problem, whatever it is. I'll be taking my new machine into the shop later this week. I've been using Macs since the SE model so am a total believer but this sort of thing (and the £900 quoted for a new logic board!) erodes my brand confidence somewhat.

Dim the Screen
A quick solution until you have time to bring it in for repairs (I don't know if it works on iBooks with the same problem, but it certainly does on MacBooks):
1. After the screen goes black, use the F1 key (or whichever it is on your model) to dim the screen. Bring it all the way down to nothing, or just hold it for about 4 or 5 seconds.
2. Use the F2 key (or whichever it is for you) to Brighten the screen. That should get it back on.
3. Try and keep it on the dim side, as the brighter it is, the more likely it will go dark again.
I'll reiterate: No need to shut the computer down (in most cases), at least try this first. Good luck!

Horton: NFC South offseason needs
Breaking down the top six areas to address for every squad
Amid the NFL labor situation, with no free agency yet, one thing is certain: There will be an NFL draft starting Thursday. With that come mock drafts (from Mel Kiper and Todd McShay) and team needs that must be met. Gary Horton examines the top six needs for every team in the NFL. Here is the file for the NFC South.
Top needs
1. Defensive end: The Falcons got a career year out of aging veteran John Abraham in 2010, but they need help on the other side and an infusion of youth. Former first-round pick Jamaal Anderson has not been a sack producer, and there aren't a lot of promising young guys on the horizon.
2. Outside linebacker: They do not get enough production from this position even though their 2010 top pick, Sean Weatherspoon, has a chance to be special if he can stay healthy. In this 4-3 defense, the OLB needs to be a versatile athlete with pass-rushing skills but also the ability to drop into coverage.
3. Wide receiver: Roddy White is a great No. 1 receiver, but where is the quality No. 2 guy who takes some coverage away from him? Michael Jenkins has been in that role for several seasons, but he doesn't stretch the field and he doesn't make enough dynamic plays. This pass offense had only nine plays of 30-plus yards in 2010.
4. Tight end: Tony Gonzalez is a free agent who probably wants to play only one more year but is unlikely to leave Atlanta. Still, he is near the end of a Hall of Fame career. Backups Justin Peelle and Michael Palmer are decent role players, but Matt Ryan needs a versatile guy he can count on when Gonzalez retires.

"I really like the design of this label and the quality is great, however, it's way too big for my little thank you notes. I'll use this label on bigger envelopes."
"I did not know what wraparound labels were so I looked it up online. Still, it was by trial and error that I figured out how to orient these labels on the envelopes that came with the matching cards. *See photo Other than application instructions, my only suggestion to have the option to orient the type perpendicular to the design so that the address appears vertical vs horizontal."
"Absolutely precious. Such a cute way to dress up a note! Ours were thank you cards for a philanthropy event where we had cute tassels and banners like the print shown on these. I love how everything matched - very very happy with my order!"
"Just what I wanted for a return label in terms of size and print quality. Super fast production and delivery. Would absolutely order again."
"The colors are perfect, bright, and cheerful. They match any card I am sending out and are perfect for every occasion. It was just what I was looking for."

The collaboration provides for investments in research, as well as milestones and royalty payments from Regenerex to the University of Louisville in connection with commercialization of the FCRx technology. The therapeutic potential for the technology is wide ranging. The collaboration also involves a sponsored research agreement to support a multi-year collaboration between Regenerex, UofL and the Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research to pioneer new applications of the technology.
"The 'holy grail' of transplantation is immune tolerance, that is making the body recognize a transplanted organ as 'self' and not reject it as foreign tissue, but without the need for immunosuppressive drugs with their numerous serious side effects," said Dr. David L. Dunn, executive vice president for health affairs at UofL. "Dr. Ildstad and her team may well have solved this puzzle."
Ramsey noted that in addition to the supreme efforts of the research team, it would not have been possible for the work to move forward without the support of the state, the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Defense, Jewish Hospital Foundation, Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation and the National Stem Cell Foundation.
"It is immensely rewarding for our donors to know they helped move potentially life-changing therapies closer to being available for people in need worldwide," said Paula Grisanti, chair of the National Stem Cell Foundation.

Well, I'm back again. Now that things are starting to become a little less hectic for me, I finally have more spare time on my hands.
Things have been a little rough for me lately, mostly girl problems. The thing is, I really like this one girl at school and I would give anything to get into a relationship with her. We are really good friends and we always watch out for each other bu I want to be more than friends.
I don't know if she feels the same way about me, and I don't want act like an ass trying desperately to do anything I can to make it work.
But anyways, it's good to be back, and hopefully this time I'll stay for good.

Perfect place for extended family
We've rented this house twice and have nothing but great things to say about the house and property as well as the hard work Neill, Dale and Amanda put into keeping it clean, comfortable and well-stocked. If you're traveling with extended family or multiple families and looking for a place that's private but close to everything the valley has to offer this is it! 2 bedrooms downstairs, 4 upstairs and 2 full baths down, 1 up mean there's plenty of space for everyone and with the layout the adults can easily be relaxing in the common spaces after the kids go to bed without worrying about waking them up during a heated card game. :-)
Immaculate property decorated with love and style!
We were greeted by the owner and a tray of homemade brownies! This home was spotless and perfect for the 7 of us. Beds were supper comfortable. Linens and towels the finest. The views are simply breathtaking and lots of areas to walk right off the property. Convenient to multiple towns and attractions. HIGHLY recommend!
We were so happy with this property! The view is absolutely beautiful, the house is spacious and immaculate!! It is situated high up on a hill and is very private and quiet. It is very well equipped with everything you would need - the owners have gone above and beyond. We can't wait to go back!

Kollam court posts case for preliminary hearing on June 18
After 105 days in custody, the two Italian marines, arrested for allegedly gunning down two Indian fishermen off Kerala, were released on bail on Saturday as a court in Kollam posted their trial to June 18.
Massimilliano Lattore and Salvatore Girone walked out of the Borstal prison here around 9.30 p.m. after they fulfilled the stringent bail conditions of the Kerala High Court, prison authorities said. Though the jail authorities received a fax copy of the Kollam magistrate order, the two were released only after the formal release order was furnished.
Italian Consul General in Mumbai Giampalo Cuttillo and other officials were present as the marines were driven off to a hotel at the nearby Wellington Island.
The High Court granted them bail on May 30 on various conditions, including a bond of Rs. 1 crore each with two Indian solvent sureties for a like amount. It also ordered they stay within a 10 km radius of the Kochi Police Commissioner's office and appear before the Commissioner on all days between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. and as and when required.
On Saturday morning, the two were taken from Kochi to Kollam District and Sessions Court and produced before the Sessions Judge P.D. Rajan, who posted the trial in the case to June 18.
The court directed the State government to provide a list of interpreters to translate proceedings into Italian for the accused before the next sitting. The marines, arrested from Italian merchant vessel 'Enrica Lexie' on February 19 have been charged with the murder in the case that had sparked a diplomatic row between India and Italy which opposed their trial in India. — PTI
Italy hails bail
AFP reports from Rome:
Italy's Prime Minister Mario Monti expressed "great satisfaction" on Saturday over the release on bail of the two marines, but called for their return to Italy.
"I express my own and the government's great satisfaction for the liberation, under bail conditions, of our marines. An important objective has been reached," Mr. Monti said in a statement.
"But the final outcome, for which we have worked with determination since the start of our interactions with Indian authorities at every level, is the return of our marines to Italy," he said.

Re: Universal Pictures President believes HDDVD would fail without Universal Partnership
The BDA has already sunk MASSIVE amounts of money into this. The PS3 is supposedly causing $1B-1.5B gaming losses per annum, the delayed start of the PS3 caused huge opportunity losses, the subsidization of the BD50, a year's worth of endless promotion, endcaps, advertising, and whatever incentives were paid to Disney, Fox, Blockbuster, etc. The bottom line is probably well over $3B and may well be over $4B. HD DVD has been hit by subsidized players at the launch, their reported advertising budget of around $150MM (IIRC), and now this Paramount deal. Total cost to them to date is probably less than $500MM, a mere fraction of the hole the BDA has dug for themselves.
HD DVD is easily in the financial position to exert considerable influence if they choose to.
Rumor has it Warner may switch to HD DVD exclusive. So much for BD's "massive studio support!"
Still amazed that with all this "studio support", FITDTH AGiGBAYtes!!!!, PS3, billions of dollars, paid off retailers, paid off video rental companies, BD can only manage 2:1. Wait till you see how many HD DVD players Transformers sells.

first impressions good, continued use and purchased a second box
My skin felt clean but I could not see any difference. By the tenth day my skin was dry & flaky in places. Not worth the price.
Good but not excellent
Love this product, have repurchased a few times now and will continue to do so. My skin is noticeably brighter and more refined. Can't get enough of it.

December iui's *added link to spread sheet*
* if you could choose boy or girl what would you pick?? (or either, or multiples)
* baby names- for your choice or both!
Me 26(Samantha) DH 30(Andrew)
Married 8/28/2010- together since 2006
Baby Coo is on the way! (our first) 8/25/2013!!!
Thanks for the welcome, everyone. It's nice to have a place to talk about everything. My best friend is going through this too but her issues are different than mine. It's nice that we have each other, but would be even better if we didn't have to worry at all.
Samantha, do you know how to edit your original post? I think it's possible. So maybe you could do that and add the link for the spreadsheet to it? They did it in the Nov IUI post and it was much easier to get to. I like having it and being able to keep track of everyone. Thank you to whoever made it. (I don't remember who it was.)
As far as boy/girl, I think I really want twins! They run in both our familes and with the clomid I know our chances are increased as well. That would be the best Christmas present ever if I got my BFP and it turned out to be twins. :) If we have a girl we'll name her Madison Emily and if we have a boy we'll probably name him Zachary James.
What are your choices?
Me - Pam (26) DH (27)
Married 7/11/09 TTC #1 - 7/2011
Samantha - thank you for the distraction,what a great idea, hmm boy or girl...
it would be very easy for me to say 10 years ago.... but since we have been trying for so long, it almost doesn't matter. I will take twins if i can, it will kill us financially, but it seems like it is a lot to ask to get lucky (prego) once .... so why not - it might the be the only shot we get!
any combo for twins will do..
my AF arrived on time, more painful since we started hormon therapy for iuis. Gonal-f didn't get approved by insurance, but follistim was on the ok list so we will start with that on wednesday after blood and us....
hang in there teneeshiatreadway :)
also, i'm going to try and add accupucture to the mix - got first appointment for Thursday afternoon, i'm looking forward to it actually despite my fear of needles....
Now to the boy or girl question. Even though I have a huge family and had been around plenty of kids I have always felt that I wanted a girl. I just imagine dressing her up and having the close relationship that I have with my mom. However my youngest nephew (1.5 years old) has completely even out the score :p. He's so sweet and adorable! Of course I would love my kid regardless but now I think if I get a boy I don't have to deal with the girl teenage drama. We all know that 13-18 possibly until 20 is hell. Haha.
Jose-Miguel or Miguel-Jose for a boy.
I wouldn't mind twins.
Azoo iUi1-CP; iUi2>DS 9/13
TTC#2: iUi1-CP, iUi2-CP, iUi3-bfn, IVF1-9dp5dt>135, 11dp5dt>303, 14dp5dt>967; It's twins :-)
As for the questions. I would prefer girl first because when i was born there were 5 surviving generations of females on my moms side, for as long as i can remember i have wanted a 5 generation photo with my little girl, and right now that is still a possibility, however i will be over the moon regardless. Twins? Ehhh mixed feelings, but DH says hes ok with them.
Names will be either Kaylee Maxine (after her great great gma) or Hayden James!
Sticky baby dust to everyone getting ready for the big O!!
Married 08/19/07 and TTC Baby # 1 since 2008!
MFI dx'd 02/2012
IUI#2 turned Timed IC--BFN
actual IUI#2 or IVF --???
Has anyone heard anything about infertility being a sign of a gluten intolerance!?
As far as boy/girl, one or more... at this point I really don't care. I just want to be a mom! I agree with the post about have multiples because this could be our only shot.
