It has come a long way for Samsung in the Laptop market and Samsung is now one of the biggest names out there. Hence it isn't a surprise to see Samsung pushing out laptops in all sizes available. The series-3 is one of the examples of Samsung's strategy to gain its market share in the laptop category. With a 17-inch display, it serves well for those who tend to use their laptop as a desktop replacement. However, unlike its competitors, Samsung has decided to offer the series-3 in many variants, stretching the price range of this series. It serves well for those who use it just as a multimedia device or even for gamers. The good thing about this laptop is the choice of hardware customization it offers. The Samsung series-3 laptop can be purchased with a AMD processor or even with Intel's i3, i5 or i7. At the price Samsung is selling it for, it is definitely a better choice over its competitors.
However, it does have some downsides to it. Being a budget friendly device, it doesn't really offer any kind of luxury look or even anything remotely close to class. We've seen much cheaper laptops with lower spec which manages to push better looks. The built quality also shouts budget. They've tried to make the plastic exterior look like brushed metal but they seem to have failed at deceiving our eyes. Another huge let down is its low quality display. When all other competitors have started fitting full-HD displays for laptops this size, the series-3 only comes with a 1600 x 900 pixels display. A full-HD display would cost more and only comes with the higher range models. Nonetheless, the Samsung series-3 is still something to consider when you're choosing a bigger, budget-friendly laptop.
Intel HD Graphics 2000: Integrated graphics card in the Intel Sandy Bridge processors (Core ix-2xxx). The 2000 is the slower, internally GT1 called, version with 6 Execution Units (EUs).
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

Dual-core processor based on the Sandy Bridge architecture with an integrated graphics card and dual-channel DDR3 memory controller. Due to the Pentium brand, many features of the Sandy Bridge core are deactivated.

14.0": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2 kg: These sub-notebooks weight less than the average of all notebooks, but represent a heavier class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 12 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Samsung: The Samsung Group is composed of numerous international businesses, all united under the Samsung brand in South Korea. The meaning of the Korean word Samsung is "tristar" or "three stars". The Samsung brand is one of the most important brands of South Korea. Samsung is an international notebook manufacturer of medium size according market shares and reviews.
65%: Such a bad rating is rare. There exist hardly any notebooks, which are rated worse.

Review: Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25
If you have not heard of BB (beauty balm) creams yet, you must be living under a rock (no offense, but seriously, they are everywhere). Here's a quick rundown: it's simply the latest version of the all-in-one makeup meets skincare. Brands are coming out with formulas that do everything from minimize pores, deliver anti-aging benefits, mask uneven skin tone, hydrate, mattify – if you have an issue you are trying to solve with your face, there is a BB cream for it. Leave your old-fashioned tinted moisturizer behind and find a BB cream that works best for you.
For this look at BB creams, we are focusing on Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25, a super-hydrating tinted cream that promises even skin tone, all day dewiness, and sun protection. Water Fuse BB Cream comes in just one shade, a neutral beige that is best for light to medium complexions. If your skin tone falls outside that range, you'll probably be happier finding another brand with more shade options. Water Fuse is also best for someone who has dry skin but no fine lines or wrinkles. It is so hydrating, it actually feels cool like water on the skin, but we found the dewy finish settles into fine lines and makes them more noticeable – not the look we were going for. The coverage is sheer to medium and allows for a bit of building, but more coverage would need to come from a separate concealer.
We really are lucky to have so many options in BB creams, because this one is so narrowly targeted. Women in their 20s or 30s with dry skin, a light to medium complexion, and no wrinkles might just love it! Unfortunately, we don't.Tags: bb cream, Cosmetics, Skincare
L'Occitane Immortelle Creme Divine Review
After a sun-filled summer where we got a little more tan than we intended, now that fall is here we are in need of some facial TLC. What we love about this new cream from L'Occitane, Immortelle Divine, is that it packs all the anti-aging and moisturizing benefits we need in a lightweight cream with a fresh scent that reminds us fresh brewed ice tea with lemon on a lazy summer day. Creme Divine is emollient and rich with organic essential oils and omega-3 and -6 fatty acids, but with a light texture that melts right into the skin, leaving a slightly dewy finish. We do recommend keeping it away from your eyes, though, as it has a tendency to migrate, which can affect the staying power of your eye makeup (use a good eye cream designed for the eye area instead). All in all, this is a lovely cream that we look forward to using all season long.
You can find this and other great L'Occitane products (like our favorite Shea Butter Body Lotion) at L'Occitane boutiques or shop online.Tags: anti-aging, cream, essential oils, l'occitane, moisturizer, organic
Brand Review: MyChelle Dermaceuticals
We have been fans of MyChelle for years. They have a comprehensive line of skin care, body care, and mineral makeup that is both scientifically advanced and has natural ingredients. We love that all the products are fairly concentrated, so you only need a tiny dab. Here are some new things we tried just in time for spring.
MyChelle Fruit Enzyme Cleanser ($9.69 for 2.1 oz, $17.29 for 4.4 oz)
No matter how many times we use this cleansing gel, we still can't believe how well it works with such a teeny, tiny amount. This is truly a fantastic, refreshing gel cleanser suitable for any skin type. It's gentle but thorough (however, for makeup removal, we recommend Boscia MakeUp-BreakUp Cool Cleansing Oil), and has fruit and sugar extracts for a little light exfoliating.
MyChelle Fruit Enzyme Scrub ($17.19 for 2.3 oz)
We readily admit to being bargain hunters for face scrubs, even subjecting our skin to those rough walnut shell varieties (bad!), but we have redeemed ourselves by using this scrub. The scrub particles (jojoba beads and bamboo stem powder) are gentle enough as to not damage the skin, while the fruit enzymes gently but effective work to get rid of dull, lifeless skin. We are also happy to only need a tiny dab for our whole face. We recommend enjoying Fruit Enzyme Scrub every other day in the shower.
MyChelle Fruit Fiesta Peel ($28.39 for 1.2 oz)
Don't misunderstand – we love facials and their pampering, rejuvenating benefits – but we feel like we are cheating on our favorite esthetician since discovering this simple, at-home peel. It smells amazing, tingles without burning, and works in less than 3 minutes to make our skin look smooth, fresh, and revitalized. To get maximum benefits without taxing the skin, we recommend using the Fruit Fiesta Peel only once a week.
MyChelle Fabulous Eye Cream ($28.39 for 0.5 oz)
If you are looking for a great moisturizing eye cream, this is a solid choice. While it doesn't make the same overblown promises of the more expensive brands, Fabulous Eye Cream is wonderfully moisturizing, packed with antioxidants, and has plant ingredients that protect against collagen loss. One teeny little dab, smaller than a grain of rice, is enough for both eyes.
The MyChelle website is incredibly comprehensive, with every product, ingredients, and usage listed. You can purchase from their site or at drugstore.com.Tags: mychelle, natural skincare, plant based
Makeup Primers: Don't Wear Foundation Without One!
We are skeptics, we admit it. When the salesperson at the department store tries to sell us the full line of skin care because all the products somehow work "synergistically" together, and only together, we scoff in disbelief. When the anti-aging moisturizer label claims we will look 10 years younger in 4 weeks, we know it's a bunch of marketing nonsense. So when the makeup artist at our favorite beauty shop tells us we absolutely must wear a primer under our foundation, we are ready with our best eye roll. Can you blame us?
Fast forward to a recent episode with a less than cooperative foundation. No matter how well the shade matched our skin, or how clean the makeup sponge was, or how perfectly moisturized our skin was, our favorite foundation did not want to blend nicely and settled into the fine lines we pretend we don't have. Grrr. A little voice reminded us about makeup primer. Maybe we should just try it?
The purpose of makeup primer is simple: to create a smooth, even surface as a base for foundation so the makeup doesn't settle into fine lines and pores. If you have trouble with your makeup wearing off by midday, or if you are sick of foundation settling into the lines around your eyes, a primer is a great tool to help your favorite foundation look even better.
Revlon Beyond Natural Smoothing Primer
Oddly enough, we bought this at Target not that long ago and now it's suddenly hard to find. Thankfully, it's a standard silicone-based clear gel formula that many other brands make, so if you like this style, finding another similar product will not be difficult. About the size of a small pea is enough for your whole face (more than that will feel like a slippery mask), and it works well with cream or liquid foundations. Here are some similar choices: CoverGirl Simply Ageless Serum Primer, Philosophy The Present Clear Makeup, Vincent Longo Water Canvas Gel Cream Base.
Laura Mercier Foundation Primer
We got a .5 ounce tube of this from the Beauty Insider program at Sephora, and we really love it. It's a peach-colored cream gel, and as with all primers, you only need a pea-sized dab (if that) for your whole face. We like how light and smooth Laura Mercier Primer is, more like a moisturizer than a silicone mask. We've also found that it's compatible with all the foundations we have in rotation (CoverGirl Simply Ageless Anti-Aging Foundation, Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX Foundation SPF 15, CoverGirl Natureluxe Foundation). We've found it makes foundation glide on more smoothly, last longer, and we even use less.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
We have been very happy with the coverage and blendable texture of Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX Foundation that we got in the Smashbox Complexion Perfection Kit, but the Photo Finish Foundation Primer really only works with this foundation. We tried it with all our other options and oddly the formulas just don't seem to work together; we end up with a streaky mess. That said, the combination of the Smashbox primer and the High Definition foundation look ah-mazing together. With this primer more than the others we tried, it's critical to use the smallest amount possible or it just doesn't work properly. We've found success with a dab about the size of a grain of rice. The texture is very satiny and soft, and it should feel light and comfortable if you use the right amount.
It looks like we need to apologize to our friendly neighborhood makeup artist and admit that, yes, a foundation primer really does make all the difference. Since this series of product testing, we have become devotees and can't imagine going back. We hope you find a primer you love, too!
Our New Favorite Lipstick
We usually favor lip balm or clear gloss because it's easy to apply on the go and we don't have to worry about smudges. We also appreciate the moisturizing benefits of balm in the winter when our lips get so dry. Plain balm is so boring, though! We are always up for trying something new, so when we saw a commercial for Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter, we knew a trip to the store was in order. There are 20 shades to choose from, from pale and demur to bold and shimmery. We tend to favor shades that go with everything and look natural, so we opted for Pink Truffle, a brownish pink. We are happy to say that we are not disappointed: this lip butter is the perfect cross between moisturizing balm and colorful lipstick. It glides on easily, has a smooth and light texture, feels moisturizing, and lasts pretty well (not through eating or drinking, though).
You can find Revlons' new Lip Butter online or at your local drug/discount store.
Winter Face Creams
Looking to improve your winter skincare routine to include a better face cream? Here are our current favorites, and they are perfect for all skin types.
L'Occitane Immortelle Precious Cream ($56): Don't let the thick texture of this cream deceive you – it's light and fast-absorbing, with just the right level of hydration. If you like a more natural product with plant extracts and essential oils, this is one to try.
Super by Dr. Nicholas Perricone Super Hyper Hydrator with Coconut Water ($40): Either alone or layered with treatment products, we are totally in love with this coconut lotion. It's super lightweight but incredibly hydrating, and it smells amazing! No trip to Sephora is complete without picking up an extra jar or two.
Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream ($19.99): We love drugstore finds, and this anytime cream is an easy choice for any skin type. It's no miracle worker (like any cream really is), but it softens and hydrates as well as the higher priced brands.
Favorite Hand Creams
With the hope and promise of a new year comes something we find rather unwelcome, but thankfully avoidable: winter dry hands. We've had enough! Here are a few of our favorite hand creams, from budget to more indulgent, to help you get through the dry skin season.
Avon Care Silicone Glove Protective Hand Cream ($5 for a full size 3.4 oz tube, $0.99 for the 1.5 oz size)
Our favorite hand cream comes with a bit of nostalgia: we used to get a holiday-themed tube of Silicone Glove every year in our Christmas stocking. It still evokes that special memory every time we smell it. It has a fresh, baby powder scent, is non-greasy, and makes our hands soft and supple. We also love how it lasts through a few hand washings.
Nivea Soft Moisturizing Creme (available in 6.8 oz jar or 2.6 oz tube; $4-6)
If you are the kind of person who routinely slathers on lotion after a bath or shower, Nivea Soft is the cream for you. The soft, delicate scent won't clash with other scents you might wear, and it's lightweight and non-greasy.
Caudalie Hand and Nail Cream ($19)
Caudalie is decidedly more indulgent than a drugstore hand cream, but it is also more of a skin care treatment. Caudalie uses the antioxidant benefits of grape seed polyphenols in all their products, so this hand cream boasts anti-aging properties. Considering that is does not contain a sunscreen, we are not convinced about the anti-aging claims, but it's still a nice hand cream. It has a fresh, grapevine scent and is non-greasy and fast absorbing.

Apalachicola city commissioners Tuesday night postponed moving forward with changes to a key city board affecting downtown development, after they heard sustained criticism from audience members of how the process to reconfigure the Community Redevelopment Area board was handled last month.
Led by Ann Seaton, a Fifth Street resident who has sat on the CRA for the past five months, about a half-dozen audience members deplored the way city commissioners on Jan. 14 agreed to expand the seven-member CRA board by adding an eighth member who would represent the Main Street organization.
Seaton said Main Street chairman Jim Bachrach, who had pressed for adding the Main Street representative, had made the request in an undated letter, without prior notice so as to be included on the agenda. The matter was introduced in the report by City Administrator Betty Taylor-Webb, and then approved unanimously by the commissioners.
Seaton made clear she did not intend to argue the merits of the change, but wished to address what she made equally clear was a breach of ethics in her book, as well as a possible violation of the Sunshine Law.
"The request was improperly brought before you and for that reason alone, it should be struck," she told commissioners, citing the fact that it had been included in Webb's report.
"My understanding of the word 'report' is to provide you with new information on pre-existing issues. Not to bring a new issue to you attention," she said. "In my view this is not only a legal issue but an ethical one as well."
Both Mayor Van Johnson and City Attorney Pat Floyd disagreed that there had been anything wrong or unusual about the request originating in Webb's report. Floyd said commissioners were entitled to act on matters that emerged from reports by department heads.
"I am a citizen of this city," said Seaton. "I have a right to participate in this government. If it's not on the agenda, I can't."
Johnson said he has never disallowed a citizen from speaking out on any subject at a city meeting. "Anybody that wants to interject at a meeting is free to do so," he said.
Seaton said she did not know whether the CRA chairman, Anita Grove, had been aware of the proposed change.
Before Grove had her opportunity to address the commissioners, both Johnson and Commissioner Brenda Ash said they were concerned about the tensions that had surfaced.
"Sounds like this discussion needs to be taken up at the CRA meeting. I think the CRA is very instrumental. There needs to be a sense of harmony on that board," said Ash.
"I would like to see the CRA work out a plan, and not turn this appointment into a (battle)," Johnson said. "The last thing I want to see is to open up old battle wounds from the time when it was the chamber (of commerce) vs Main Street. You're never going to have harmony when you go back and fight these old battles. The only way you're not going to fight these old battles is to move forward."
Clarice Powell said she felt Main Street had tried to circumvent the process by going directly to the city commission, rather than discussing the proposal first within the CRA.
"Main Street should have gone to the CRA board and said 'This is what we want to do,' instead of going to you guys," she said. "If these people are supposed to have the autonomy, they should go through the right channels."
Grove told commissioners she learned about the Main Street proposal for the first time at the city commission meeting. "This bump has happened and it was a surprise, I don't know if the rest of the CRA members even know about it," she said. "We did have a meeting less than 24 hours before that and nothing was brought up."
She said she didn't want to spend a lot of time rewriting the bylaws. "We're going to drop back and do a little bit of housekeeping, and see how to better work with each other," she said.
Ash asked Grove why she hadn't spoken up at the original meeting when the Main Street proposal was made.
"I was in shock," Grove replied. "I didn't want to appear anti Main Street, and I didn't feel comfortable saying something. I hesitated because I didn't know what's going on."
She said she has been working for the past several months on revitalizing the CRA. "I've finally got it going again and we're going in the right direction and the whole board has been usurped," said Grove.
In her remarks, Marie Marshall cited a 1976 statute that empowered the Planning & Zoning Commission to manage the city's land development code, and suggested additional boards would encroach on that function.
"Look to P & Z," she said. "Why invent another new body? We have to look at laws that are in place presently."
Leslie Coon said she supported Main Street, the chamber and the CRA, but questioned why it was necessary to expand and intertwine these organizations.
"There are so many people, on so many boards that are redundant," she said. "Why is it that Main Street has to be on the CRA board? Why is it assumed by you there will be a battle if they are not on that board?
"Why do all these different boards have to be on other boards? Why isn't it simply a process?" she asked. By the way, an eight-member board doesn't work. So how many members of a board does it make it equal?"
Jamie Liang, who said she was an attorney but was not representing a particular party, cited the state statute that had created CRAs as an advisory board and a watchdog board.
"This implies an independence of the board," she said. "The mission of the CRA is every narrow."
Liang said that while the CRA focuses on eliminating blighted areas and other such revitalization, Main Street has a broader mission statement that "dovetails in some respects." She said Main Street's bylaws specify that it will promote travel and tourism, advocate for a positive view of Apalachicola, pursue appearance improvements to the downtown, and education for business owners, among others.
Liang called the Main Street expansion proposal "a move to disturb the independent nature of the (CRA) board. The whole bringing up of these things calls into question respect for the independence of the board. The whole thing seems not to have gone through the right channels," she said.
Ash pressed her concerns. "What I'm hearing is kind of disheartening," she said. "The CRA is there for a purpose; it's not there as a political battleground. We're not here to engage in the infighting, that's not the purpose. We're here to get something accomplished for the city of Apalachicola.
"We need to work together. What I'm hearing is Main Street, Main Street, Main Street," she said.
"It's a fear that eventually the Main Street will take over development of the city," said Johnson.
The first reading of the ordinance to reconfigure the CRA board had been on Tuesday's agenda, but the mayor secured unanimous approval to have the matter postponed until the March 4 regular meeting.
"This will give the CRA a chance to discuss it," said Ash. "We're going to start over the process."

Barbie® Doll 2000
Barbie® doll celebrates the year 2000 in grand style, wearing a spectacular ensemble worthy of a momentous occasion. Sparkling straps accent her sophisticated, silhouette-style halter gown, which is embellished with rhinestones and ends in a slightly flared hem. Silvery glitter starbursts and the year "2000" add pretty touches and serve as festive reminders of the new millennium. A floor-length red satin stole, turned back to reveal its silvery lining, drapes gracefully around Barbie® doll's shoulders. Red and silver ornaments decorate her hairdo and drop earrings add the final glamorous touch.
Production doll may vary from the photo shown above. Mattel reserves the right to modify the fashion/fabrics, sculpt, hair color/style, and accessories. Doll cannot stand alone as shown.

I'd be happy with the Cardback, but if it was detachable or something that would be ok too.
The Tasseled loincloth like the card back
The Furry loincloth like the original release
I was watching the commercial for Dragon Blaster Skeletor and Roboto and noticed that the DB Skeletor in the ad had the tasseled loincloth like that of the original Skeletor. I noticed that the card back artwork had it as well but I guess Mattel chose to leave it off when they produced the toy. That being said, would you like to see the tasseled loincloth or the furry loincloth when Dragon Blaster Skeletor is released in the MOTUC line?
Personally I prefer the tasseled loincloth look as it gives the overall figure a better look
Tasseled loincloth look
Furry loincloth look

I'd be happy with the Cardback, but if it was detachable or something that would be ok too.
As a kid I was always disappointed that he didn't include that loincloth. They could totally make up for it now!
I wanted to vote furry like the vintage, but I voted tassled because I was always let down that Skeletor didnt always have the tassle. That should be one of his things, not optional. It set's him apart, and though I like vintage accuracy, I must say this is one of the additions that I think could improve it.
Much like I am pro certain 200x details (that are optional sometimes, like with Fisto) I think that a removable belt, like Trapjaw, would be great. That and the fused sculpt one that came on the other skeletor's kinda dissapoint me. It'd be neat to have a loose one, like the vintage.
But if it's not, I'm not loosing sleep over it being just furry short pants.
it would be cool if they did the tassels as long as they are in 200x i love that look

its fun to have it on ba skeletor but would like the tassles on db skeletor
I can't really vote in this poll because either way is perfectly fine with me. I'll leave that decision up to the Four Horsemen.
He should definitely have the Skeletor tassel loincloth.
He should also have the same shins and forearms as Kobra Khan, just like the cardback art. Should that be another poll?

The best pert about this dilemma is that either way Mattel chooses to go, those who aren't happy with the decision can still customize him since both loin cloths have already been done.

BA Skeletor looks weird without the tassles so I would prefer DB Skeletor come with them.
Tassels definitaly
Skeletor should always have his particular loincloth. It's one of his signature design elements.
As this is my favorite Skeletor variant. I'd prefer the furry loincloth. It's just a staple in the MOTU diet. But, the 4H could make a removeable tassle loincloth as an attachment on the back side. Easy..it could be done. Then the fans can have the tassle look or the furry look. Everyone is happy.

I think if it's Skeletor he should have the Slatted loin cloth....He-Man usually always has the furry boots..it's his thing...Skeletor should have the same loin cloth....I think BA Skeletor would have looked that much better had he been designed with that instead of the furries...

Sandhill Crane
Online Test for Sandhill Crane Hunters and Other Sandhill Crane Information
To buy your Sandhill Crane permit, CLICK HERE.
General Information
Sandhill cranes have been hunted in Kansas since 1993 and in the Central Flyway since 1961. Hunting is permitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in nine of the 10 states in the Central Flyway. Although crane hunting is opposed by some people, crane hunting is done on a sustainable basis under a population management plan approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Sport hunting also is justified for maintaining reasonable distributions of sandhill cranes. If concentrations become too high in some areas, crop depredation can occur and risk of disease to cranes increases. Crane hunting is extremely challenging because cranes are very wary and crane meat is considered excellent table fare, probably the best of all migratory game birds.
The sandhill cranes that migrate through Kansas, and sometimes winter here, are part of the Mid-continent Population. This population is one of nine in North America and by far the largest with about 500,000 birds. The next largest populations number about 20-25,000 birds.
Hunting regulations have been formulated and contingency plans utilized to minimize the chance of endangered whooping cranes being accidentally shot bysandhill crane hunters. Although sandhill cranes start concentrating in huntable numbers during late October, the start of the hunting season was delayed to the Wednesday following the first Saturday in November to allow most of the whooping cranes to migrate through the state. Shooting hours for sandhill cranes start at thirty minutes after sunrise, from the start of season through November 30. On December 1 through the end of the season, shooting hours begin at sunrise rather than one-half hour before sunrise to minimize the chance of a sandhill crane hunter mistakenly shooting a whooping crane due to low light conditions. (Kansas is the only state in the Central Flyway to have delayed shooting hours to protect whooping cranes.) The federal-state, Quivira National Wildlife Refuge, and Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area contingency plans provide guidance as to what actions to take if whooping cranes are present during hunting seasons.
Sandhill crane and waterfowl hunters need to be aware that whooping cranes are occurring more frequently in Kansas, especially in the Cheyenne Bottoms and Quivira areas, and be able to identify whooping cranes. Whooping cranes and sandhill cranes are similar in size and shape, but whooping cranes are white with black wing tips. The penalty for shooting a whooping crane is a fine of up to $100,000 and/or up to one year in prison. For more information, go to:
Online Test for Sandhill Crane Hunters - This test is optional in 2005 and will be mandatory in 2006. The test is 378k in size and will take a few minutes to download if you have a modem. Flash 6 is required, which most computers have. If yours doesn't, then you will be asked to download Flash 6.
Whooping Crane Brochure - Information on whooping cranes and how to distinguish them from species that look similar to them.
USFWS Information for Waterfowl and Sandhill Crane Hunters - The purpose of this web site is to provide waterfowl and sandhill crane hunters with information that will reduce the likelihood of shooting illegally at migratory birds that may look like sandhill cranes, but for which there is no open season and are protected by Federal law.

What do you think of the
Nuun Single Tube - 12 Electrolyte Tablets
? Share a...
Placebo effect?
I'd like to think it's doing something. At the very least it makes me drink 16oz of flavored water before I re-fill my Nalgene all the way up to the top.
Ryan Gibbs
Great taste...didn't notice the effects.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Nuun tablets are an extremely lightweight option to bring sports hydration into the backcountry. The flavors taste great (my personal favorite is tri-berry), but on big days I still noticed I was getting cramping. Found they work best for low-moderate activities.
Sarah D.
Tri-berry is my favorite!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I wouldn't use Nuun on a bike ride, but I would use it to get hydrated before exercising. I usually put a tablet into my water an hour before training. It acts similar to Airborne.
Helps your body hydrate
What a huge difference from just drinking plain water: my body actually absorbs the water instead of just running through me. And, no chalky aftertaste like Emergen-C. Good stuff.
Mike Haines
Drink more!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've tried different types of mixes, and what I've found is that regardless of flavor or brand, drinking more water makes me feel better on a long ride or hike. Nuun helps me do that in because
It doesn't:
--Taste too sweet when you're trying to drink a bottle an hour
--Make your bottles dirty
--Settle down so the top of your bottle is just water while the bottom is syrup
However, It Does:
--Taste really refreshing
--Require almost zero effort to mix
--Have fizz
--Let you eat calories and drink hydration on different schedules without one affecting the other
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Work very well, easy to carry, lots of different flavors to choose from.
Definitely a don't leave home w/out them type of item.
Seth Wiscombe
Works well
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Got them for the easy electrolyte boost. I always seem to drop them in water bottles that are too big, (i.e. nalgene) so they end up being pretty watered down, kind of like that lemons and water wedding punch you drink just because it's there. I'm sure they taste better with the recommended 16 oz bottle, but these are just so convenient I can't help it, just drop it in and go.
Chris McIntyre
Lots of Cycling? Up Your Water
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have been using the nuun for a few years now, and would not cycle without them. It adds a great (light) effervescence to plain water and flavor as well. Can I say definitively that it has helped me absorb the water/hydrate better? No, I am not a freakin' scientist, but I mentally believe it does - which in cycling, mental is half the battle. Very light flavor, awesome on long rides.
Anthony and Ashley South
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I was given these as a gift so I thought I would try them while out hiking this summer & I am happy I did! They mix it up from the normal just water routine. Taste good too!
great product
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
i like these a lot. Very convenient and easy to transport in a hydration bag,ect. They taste nice too and the fizz keeps it interesting :)
Christy J
Great for hydration and hangovers
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bring Nuun with me on outdoor adventures for two reasons; 1. Hydrate while on the ride 2. It's THE BEST hangover cure! Rid the whiskey from your legs before you ride with a Nuun and you'll thank me.
Lemon Lime is my favorite
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I had tried almost all the flavors when I bought a box of mixed NUUN and my favorite is Lemon Lime. I usually put one into my 21 once water bottle and 2 for my 24 once water bottle. Great for hydration and to prevent cramp. Unlike other Electrolyte tablets, NUUN does not make you more thirsty after the ride and does not have strong after taste. For me, when I am riding for more than 2 hours, I will carry 1 bottle with NUUN and 1 bottle with plain water.

Tri Berry Ingredients/Nutrition
Amanda L
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Received a tube of Tri-Berry from a friend. It's ok... less fizzy than Gu Brew and the flavor is less intense. Can't say I've experienced any noticeable benefit from drinking it during/after runs though, but no ill effects either. I like the tube design so there's no individual packaging to fumble with.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I cramp up really bad after long runs and after using these I haven't had any cramping. They taste great too!
Dylan Berry
Feeling good feeling great how are you
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These are way better than any sports drink out there and can clearly notice a difference in my recovery and stamina during activity. Great on the trail or after a long day on the river.
Great stuff
This tastes really good and I prefer it over many other kinds of drinks. It is a great hydrator, and I use it on most of my trips. I highly recommend it
Arthur Debowski
Subtle satisfaction
As a person who does a lot of high output activity I find myself in constant need of hydration but after a while water alone gets boring and uninspiring. That is where these come in. I actually like them really diluted so I just pop 1 or 2 into my 64oz hydration bladder and call it good. It is just enough of a taste to encourage me without being overpowering. I will also drink a concentrated beverage at the beginning of the day to preload my h2o needs and be sure to have some electrolytes on board.
David Platt
Post activity refreshment
These are a nice change of pace when you are just tired of water. After a long ride or run or hike pop one of these into your bottle and enjoy. Dissolves fast, not too sweet or overpowering.
These little tablets are a life-saver after or during a long hike or bike ride. You can even toss one or two in your hydration pack, to give you constant electrolyte-hydration-goodness. P.S. Long night of drinking around the campfire? Put one of these in your water bottle first thing in the morning, and you will be hydrated and feeling better in no time...

CornwallThere's something about town names that hint at a region's tacit charms. In Cornwall—that peninsula of rugged cliffs, hidden beaches, and fishing villages on the southwestern tip of England—one finds East Looe, Polperro, Portloe, or Mousehole, for example, and one instantly gets that this a place where the air is briny, the people full of character, and the villages dotted with cozy pubs where conversations reflect the wild grandeur of coastal cliffs and life on the sea. Which is not to say that hotels in Cornwall aren't filled with people from London and beyond, all trying to tap into a rustic timelessness that, at its best here, leaps from the pages of English literature that have so well documented this region.
Inviting Cornwall hotels, narrow streets, verdant gardens thriving in an uncharacteristically warm climate—despite being discovered by tourists, they remain Cornwall's eternal charms.
Below find a list of our selection of boutique and luxury hotels in Cornwall.

Encircled by dramatic coastline, the Scarlet Hotel's warm philosophy and dramatic architecture both capitalizes on and harmonizes with its environs.

Freedom Rides ExhibitEvent Details: November 07 - November 11, Busch Student Center, 20 N. Grand Blvd., St. Louis, MO, 63103
The Cross Cultural Center, in collaboration with the African American Studies Program and the Department of History, will host an exhibition highlighting the 50th anniversary of the Freedom Rides from Nov. 7 - Nov. 11 in suite 237 of the Busch Student Center.
Come learn more about the valiant efforts of a diverse group of volunteers--black and white, young and old, male and female, secular and religious, Northern and Southern--all united in the struggle for civil rights in the Jim Crow South.
By 1960, two U.S. Supreme Court decisions had ruled that requiring racial segregation on interstate travel was illegal. However, the rulings were largely ignored in the South. To challenge the status quo, the Freedom Riders performed a simple act. They traveled into the segregated South in small interracial groups and sat where they pleased on interstate buses.

The X Factor
Britney Spears and Jason Trawick Split! — Report
Pop queen and one-time X Factor judge Britney Spears has split from her fiance, Jason Trawick, TMZ reports. Jason and Britney had been engaged since December 2011, and rumors of a breakup have been circling the two ever since they postponed their wedding date back in late 2012.
Britney was previously married to Jason Alexander and Kevin Federline, and her wedding to Jason Trawick would have marked her third nuptials. Jason and Britney began dating in 2009 while Jason was working as Britney's agent. He is, as of the date of TMZ's report, still a co-conservator over her estate (along with Britney's father, Jamie Spears).
The day before TMZ's report, Britney switched agencies, heading to CAA from WME, igniting a flurry of rumors as to where her career — and personal life — might be headed. A source tells TMZ Jason wanted to delay an official announcement about the split until after he had been removed as co-conservator. As of Friday (January 11) afternoon, attorneys for both parties have reportedly begun arguing in support of such a motion in Los Angeles Superior Court.

Peter Beagrie
Football League Expert & Columnist
Prince of the Palace
Peter Beagrie blogs on Selhurst Park wonderkid Wilfried Zaha and Edgar Davids' arrival at Barnet.
Last Updated: 18/10/12 9:25am
Peter Beagrie is here every week on skysports.com answering YOUR Football League questions.
The former winger, who played over 770 games, representing clubs in all four tiers of the English footballing pyramid, including Manchester City, Everton, Bradford, Sheffield United, Scunthorpe, and Grimsby, forms part of the Sky Sports punditry team for all the big matches in the Championship, League One and League Two.
So if you have a poser for Peter, whether it's about your team, a player, match or incident that has caught your eye, or a wider point on the Football League, make sure you send it in.
Read below for this week's column where Beags gives his take on Wilfried Zaha, Edgar Davids, Michael Appleton and what Nigel Reo-Coker will bring to Ipswich...

2. Use the feedback form at the bottom of this page
Hi Peter, Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has been linked to my team Tottenham. I don't know too much about him so what sort of player is he? Can you compare him to someone playing in the Premier League? Thanks, Tom Baldwin (Tottenham fan)
BEAGS SAYS: Wilfried was viewed as a bit of a maverick who, like many talented players, did not have a team understanding and football acumen; when to pass, when to dribble, how to affect defenders and exploit space were all areas in which he was lacking, but last year I saw a different Wilfried. He benefitted from Dougie Freedman's belief in him and his improved decision-making and physical development allowed him to score nine goals and create a further five. He was pivotal in Palace's Carling Cup win over Man United at Old Trafford, tormenting the defence and demonstrating at one of the bastions of English football that he was fearless on the pitch, despite being unassuming off it. Palace do not need to sell, while Zaha would do well to look at players like John Bostock, who moved on without serving their footballing apprenticeship. He has not finished learning and I hope he continues to develop over the next couple of seasons at Selhurst Park. Wilfired has more tricks than Paul Daniels and Dynamo put together and is a bit of a one-off, but his ability and self-belief reminds me of Victor Moses and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, while his grace and the way he travels across the ground makes me think of Thierry Henry. He is not in that class yet, but has the demeanour to flourish.
Hi Peter, I want to know what you make of Edgar Davids becoming joint head coach at Barnet. Do you think his arrival shows a lack of faith in Mark Robson, who was only appointed as manager in the summer? Thanks, James Arnold (Arsenal fan)
BEAGS SAYS: Davids' appointment is certainly an interesting one but if you have had the good fortune to be in Edgar's company you wouldn't even have raised an eyebrow. He is still deeply passionate, motivated and opinionated about a game which has been very kind to him and would have been duller without his contributions - boots, glasses, dreadlocks and all. Barnet director of football Paul Fairclough said that Davids' arrival does not show a lack of faith in Robson and says it will only help Mark develop and grow. As Barnet is Edgar's local club and he is not involved in any other projects at the moment, it is a fantastic opportunity that Barnet couldn't turn down. Different ideas but not philosophies, same principles but different methods, is how Barnet, Robson and Davids want this to pan out, which will hopefully lead to Football League survival.
Hi Peter, I am a Barnsley fan and have heard reports that our manager Keith Hill might be in line for the Burnley manager's job. Do you not think that would be sideways step in his career? Cheers, Daryl Shaw (Barnsley fan)
BEAGS SAYS: Daryl, I wouldn't insult your intelligence by saying that Burnley and Barnsley are on a level; the Clarets' recent adventure in the Premier League means that in finances and player recruitment they have a big advantage. That said, it shows how well Keith is doing on a bottom-three budget at Oakwell to produce some of the quality attacking football that they do, something we witnessed live on Sky Sports in the Tykes' 5-0 mauling of Birmingham. You have to be a courageous manager to produce football like that and suffice to say I am a big admirer of Keith.
Hello Beags, I am an Ipswich fan and am not sure that singing Nigel Reo-Coker is a good move. I think he only sees us a short-term measure and will leave in January, so how can this be good for team morale? What do you think? Cole Longford (Ipswich fan)
Hi Peter, What do you make of Port Vale's brilliant form? We are still in administration, yet are second in League Two. Can we sustain it? Michael Stevenson (Port Vale fan)
BEAGS SAYS: It has been an unbelievable start given the financial uncertainty and fans, players and Port Vale's manager Micky Adams deserve a lot of credit. Vale showed the nation their full repertoire when they beat Oxford 3-0 live on Sky on Monday night; they have two quick and skilful wingers in Ashley Vincent and Jennison Myrie-Williams and a front two in Tom Pope and Louis Dodds who complement each other perfectly. Adams' boys are a joy to watch and with the promise of new investment on the horizon in the form of millionaire Paul Wilde and his Alchemy Investment Group, worrying times for the Valiants have been consigned to the past and a very bright future beckons.
Hi mate, Do you reckon Michael Appleton is destined for the top? He has dealt with the Portsmouth situation superbly and having surely learnt from top managers like Roy Hodgson and Sir Alex Ferguson, I think he will be a Premier League boss soon. Liam Dawson (Man United fan)
BEAGS SAYS: It is one thing having the talent to be a Premier League manager and another getting the opportunity. All the bosses outside the top flight are hoping to prove that they have got what it takes to tempt the elite clubs' chairmen not to go foreign or for tried-and-trusted out-of-work managers. I share your enthusiasm with regards to Appleton, Liam, and he has had more of the proverbial to wade through in his first post then many managers face in their entire careers. In adversity, Michael has amassed a very competitive squad proving that Pompey always find money from somewhere and if he can navigate Pompey through their next four fixtures - against Shrewsbury, Stevenage, Sheffield United and Brentford - and pick up a couple of wins, a play-off place should be achievable. I probably won't be telling Pompey's passionate fans something they don't already know but it's not the Premier League chairmen you should be worried about, it's the Championship ones, particularly in the North West where Appleton can rely on glowing references from Sir Alex Ferguson.
I'd like to finish by commenting on the ugly scenes and horrific chanting at the England Under-21's game in Serbia; it was sickening and it seems we are back in the dark ages.
The torrent of vitriolic racist abuse that we are seeing black players receive is worse than when this issue was in its infancy, and to see this in other parts of the world when you consider the success that the Kick It Out campaign has been on our shores is very sad.
The vast majority of players have the mental strength to come through and cope with it, but they should not have to. I don't think fines are an acceptable deterrent and countries whose fans misbehave like this should be banned from competing in international competitions.

Warren: Onto the National Stage
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Elizabeth Warren instantly becomes the national leader of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party (Disclosure: Warren's daughter serves on The American Prospect's governing board).
She has plenty of company among newly elected Senate Democrats. Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin, Joe Donnelly in Indiana, and Chris Murphy in Connecticut are well to the left of the people they succeeded. Conservatives who pulled the Democrats to the right on budget issues—Kent Conrad in North Dakota and Joe Lieberman in Connecticut—are mercifully in retirement.
But taking nothing away from the other newcomers, it is Warren who is combination master strategist, principled progressive, and rock star. Not to mention a thoroughly authentic and delightful person.
Massachusetts is a state that had never before elected a woman to the Senate and where Democrats have a very thin bench. Nobody else here could have beaten Scott Brown. But after a race that had Warren's strategists biting their nails right up until the last few days hoping to win by a couple of points on Obama's coattails, she beat Brown by a commanding eight points.
And Warren did this as a complete newcomer to electoral politics. She raised more money than had ever been raised in a Massachusetts Senate race. As former Governor Michael Dukakis noted when he took the microphone last night as supporters were waiting for Warren to claim victory, she had the best grassroots operation ever seen in Massachusetts.
You don't do that with political handlers. You do it with a candidate who attracts passionate supporters.
The more Brown lit into Warren with vicious ads and snarky one-liners, the more she responded with grace and wit, and the more the electorate decided that of the two, she was the class act. That included class as in working class, not just professional class. Brown's famous truck and overpriced barn jacket proved to be empty props.
What makes Warren so special? I had the privilege of watching her and working with her at close range when she chaired the Congressional Oversight Panel. I've been at this for a long time, and not since Bobby Kennedy have I seen someone who is such a natural as a progressive leader, combining intellect, principle, an intuitive feel for how to do politics, and charisma.
William F. Buckley once said that he'd rather be governed by the first hundred people in the Cambridge phone book than by the Harvard faculty. Well, Bill, one of those elitist professors just proved to be a master of the common touch.
Beyond having a steel-trap mind, the lady is a strategic genius. Warren, let's recall, was able to pull off one of the trickiest balancing acts in Obama-era politics.
She was relentless in interrogating Tim Geithner in her role as chair of the Oversight Panel. The panel's hearings stand as the definitive record of the flaws in the Geithner Treasury's plan for levitating the banks. But all the while, she retained a good working relationship with President Obama personally.
She dearly wanted to chair the new consumer bureau that she thought up. She had her supporters mount a campaign to get her the job. Obama gave it to her on an acting basis, also making her a special adviser to the president. But then it dawned on Warren that she had a bigger stage to play on.
Two of her many passions, as she made clear both in the campaign and in the victory speech last night, are completing the half-finished job of making over the financial system and ensuring that Social Security and Medicare are not thrown onto the pyre of a grand bargain. On both counts, she immediately becomes part of Obama's loyal opposition in the Democratic Party.
I recall, about a decade ago, saying to another longtime Senate-watcher that when Ted Kennedy goes, people will not know what a strategically masterful progressive senator looks like. Now we have another one. It's entirely fitting that Elizabeth Warren takes back Ted Kennedy's seat.

Had the GOP not opposed her at the budget office, Brown would probably have been re-elected, the Tea Party has become the fire-in-the-belly for moderate voters of all political ideologies.
Obama, by discouraging his base allowed the Tea Party to take over the GOP. The critical mistake made by the GOP is that they believed that the midterm victory was due to a strong right wing electorate - it was not - rather it was caused by the dispirited Dem base staying away from the polls.
Now the GOP's leadership can plainly see the disaster, their Party stands as wrecked as the Jersey shore after Sandy's barrage - yet they still cannot come to grips with what happened - they are still in denial saying that Romney lost because he was not "conservative enough". Good, GOP please keep thinking that way please.
Truth is, the only refuge of racists, bigots, know-nothings and kooks is today's GOP. We should not take this last refuge from them - moderate Republicans and independents are just not wanted in their vitriolic tent but they are welcome under a progressive tent.
As folks realize the end of the "Reagan boost" and the utter failure of "Supply side - trickle down economics" the rush towards the progressive side of American politics will suck the air out of the room - we are indeed headed towards a united nation with values of community, shared opportunity and shared sacrifice.
This will not happen without work, the same people who brought this election to Obama must now keep up the pressure for change in the WH and in congress. We must help Obama not to repeat the failures of his first term. He does not need recalcitrant white voters, he should not try to placate them as they only see such actions as weakness.
Today Obama spoke to the people and he reiterated his progressive agenda, he must not waver - if he asks the people to put pressure on Congress to break the deadlock he will receive it - if congress does not abide by the peoples' will they will know it at the next election.
Obama must be kept on his toes, and the GOP must be kept on theirs - this will happen if Obama does not disappear from the public airwaves, he must elicit the help from his supporters against those who would thwart the peoples' wishes - FDR took his fight to the people, he took names and kicked a$$ - Obama would be well advised to do likewise.

By Stephen J. Kotz
Two security guards who usually patrol the galleries of the new Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill were pressed into service directing traffic at the museum's entrance on Montauk Highway Thursday afternoon, as workers prepared a concrete slab for the placement of one of Roy Lichtenstein's Tokyo Brushstroke sculptures while a small band of onlookers stood by.
It was a slow process, as could be expected, to move a pair of towering aluminum sculptures, the larger of which weighs more than six tons, the other two-and-a-half tons, into proper position, where, for the foreseeable future, they will be seen by the thousands of drivers who pass the museum every day.
"We are very pleased that we are able to offer the community a significant work by an artist of his stature," said Terrie Sultan, the museum's director, who braved the unseasonably cold weather to answer questions for those waiting for workers to finish drilling holes to place large anchor bolts deep in the concrete pads.
"They will be here for a long, long time," she said of the sculptures, which are on an open-ended loan to the museum from the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation in cooperation with the collectors Glenn and Amanda Fuhrman and the Fuhrman Family Foundation.
Ms. Sultan said it was far too early to speculate if more sculptures by other artists will be added to the vast lawn in front of the museum, a barn-like building of poured concrete that was designed by the Swiss architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron. "We have only been here 18 months," Ms. Sultan said. "The landscaping hasn't even come in yet."
She added that bringing in such sculptures is a costly and complicated process, never mind the fact that "scale is a major factor because the building is quite definitive in its presence."
But Ms. Sultan said she was convinced the Lichtenstein sculptures, which are mostly painted in the primary colors of blue, red, and yellow, would become a "cultural beacon" that would help draw visitors to the museum's new home.
The museum director called Mr. Lichtenstein "one of the most important American artists of the 20th century."
"He was one of the major forbearers of the Pop Art movement," she continued. "He was incredibly innovative in how he made art. He definitely changed the way we looked at the intersection of art and culture."
Mr. Lichtenstein, who was born and raised in New York City, is best known for his comic-strip inspired paintings including "Whaam!," which depicts an American jet fighter blowing up an enemy plane, and "Drowning Girl, in which a thought bubble above the subject's head says, "I don't care! I'd rather sink—than call Brad for help!"
He and his wife, Dorothy, who remains on the museum's board, began coming to Southampton in the 1960s, moving there full-time in 1970 and beginning a long relationship with the Parrish. In 1982, the museum presented a show of many of the artist's early works, and Ms. Lichtenstein was a major donor to the museum's capital plan, according to Ms. Sultan.
Mr. Lichtenstein came to sculpture later in his career, according to Ms. Sultan, who said it was "a natural progression" for the artist to want to experiment in a three-dimensional medium.
Tokyo Brushstrokes I and II were created in 1994, just three years before Mr. Lichtenstein's death in 1997 at the age of 83.
The pieces are part of a larger series of "Brushstrokes" that on display in cultural centers across the world, including Paris and Madrid, as well as the Hirschorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C.
Ms. Sultan said that it is common practice for an artist to retain the rights to an artist's proof of large-scale pieces like those from the Brushstroke series, which Mr. Lichtenstein did. In 2007, his estate exercised the right to execute the artist's proof. The pieces were in storage in Rhode Island until they were installed last week, while the original remains on display in Tokyo.
"They really look great. They are just beautiful," Ms. Sultan said of recently installed pieces on Monday. They offer a great contrast to the horizontal of the nature of the building."

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Carl, I'm so sorry to hear of your latest bad news. Your attitude toward all this adversity is incredible, and it will see you through.
Randy, I've never been a big sports fan, but one cannot escape from admiring a true historic sports hero and gentleman like Ernie Banks. There's a certain element of respect and honor of his natural talent that is sorely lacking from so many of the doped-up and hyper-physical athletes today.
The Chicago Tribune has a very nice article about him which includes a short video.
Thank you everyone for the big hugs and support.
Patricia, deep down I'm not really surprised I have heart problems. My father had a heart attack when he was 54 (he'll be 80 this year!) and his father died of a massive heart attack when he was in his 50's. My grandmother had a heart condition and TIA strokes. Heart disease runs rampant in my family. With proper care, I know that I have a lot of life left in me. I've seen it with my father.
Joan, thank for sharing the Branford Marsalis video. That is some awesome swinging jazz! Loved it.
Chris, I am feeling calm. I'm normally a calm and easy-going person. It's my personality. I'm not going to say that I haven't been stressed out by what's happening, but I'm not getting all worked up about something I can't avoid. To be honest, I'm looking forward to getting these surgeries completed so I can start to heal, feel better, and get my life back.
Carl, hope you will recover well from those operations.
Thanks for sharing your health situation, Carl. Here I am complaining about the pre-colonoscopy prep I had to endure, and then read your story. Have courage and fight the bad draw as hard as you can. Keep us informed.
Another piece of sad news from Chicago: Ernie Banks, the greatest Cub of all, died.
You've got such a calm way of telling bad news, Carl! I do hope you feel as calm! Heartfelt wishes to you!

Dont forget the unpaid day in the street for half of the crew(which by the way were all legacy YORKIES), even though we had just completed the TMI job and we all had scheduled work.

If you can't find them have an SOA or Salesmen guide you to the Service Simplification section of the portal.
We the mechanics in the Harrisburg branch already went through service simplification-We all left jci and the work followed us. IMAGINE loyalty to the mechanic and not the empire

Even if they kept the name"York", they still would have pressed their micro managing and crazy ideas. I'm glad they choose not to use York. If they did my previous York experience would now have a bad wrap because of JCI. I still have pride in saying that I was a York mech. I'd never say I was a jci mech. The outcome of jci takeover would not differ because of the name they use.

Mr Hasib Khan, you should probably start a new thread for a new subject as you have hijacked this one.... to answer you question Delta T * Flow/0.239 so 28.45 MW (8080 tons), which is a fairly big mother of a chiller
