J. A04003/07 2007 PA Super 397 EDWARD T. TAPER : IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF : PENNSYLVANIA v. : : DONNA J. TAPER, : No. 699 Western District Appeal 2006 : Appellant : Appeal from the Order Entered March 16, 2006, in the Court of Common Pleas of Washington County Civil Division at No. 2001-3221 BEFORE: FORD ELLIOTT, P.J., ORIE MELVIN AND TAMILIA, JJ. OPINION BY FORD ELLIOTT, P.J.: Filed: December 26, 2007 ¶1 In this divorce action, appellant, Donna J. Taper ("Wife"), appeals from the trial court's equitable distribution order and entry of the divorce decree, divorcing Wife from Edward T. Taper ("Husband"). ¶2 The facts which led to this instant action are as follows. On June 15, 2001, Husband filed a divorce complaint. Thereafter, several pretrial conferences were held between the parties, but no settlement could be reached. In August of 2002, Husband amended his divorce complaint, and affidavits of consent were signed by both parties. In September of 2002, Wife filed an answer and counterclaim to the divorce complaint filed by Husband. On August 21, 2003, the first divorce master's hearing was held. However, neither Wife nor her attorney was present due to a scheduling error. At the hearing, Husband presented testimonial and documentary J. A04003/07 evidence. The master then filed a report on May 27, 2004. Wife filed exceptions; and as a result, the master held two additional days of hearings on February 8 and May 31, 2005, in order for Wife to present evidence. The divorce master then filed a second report on September 26, 2005. ¶3 In his report, the master found that the parties were married on December 6, 1982 in South Fayette Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. (Master's report and recommendations, 9/26/05 at 2.) One child, Delilah Dawn, was born during the marriage on June 1, 1983. At the time of the parties' separation, the child had been emancipated. (Id.) On June 1, 2001, Husband and Wife separated. Wife remained in the marital home while Husband left with only $6 in his pockets. (Id.) Husband was employed as a cook for Allegheny County at the Ross Township Care Home and earned approximately $11 per hour. Wife was employed at Kribel's Bakery in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania and earned $7 per hour with no benefits. (Id. at 1.) ¶4 During the marriage, the parties acquired a home on August 5, 1998. (Id. at 2.) Husband had the home appraised by C. Roberta Aul on October 7, 2002. Ms. Aul estimated the value as $70,000. (Id.) Wife had the home appraised by Mario Persiani on August 30, 2002. He concluded that the home had a value of $57,500. (Id.) Mr. Persiani's evaluation was based upon the fact that the slope of the land made it only 50% usable. Mr. Persiani testified at the hearing that based upon the approximate -2- J. A04003/07 appreciation in the area of 3%, the value of the home in August of 2005 would be $62,675. (Id. at 2-3.) Striking a balance between Husband and Wife's appraisals, the master set the value of the marital residence at $66,500. (Id. at 3.) The master then recommended that the value of the marital home be split 55% to Husband and 45% to Wife. (Id. at 4.) ¶5 Additionally, Husband presented evidence regarding the value of the household furnishings and other personal items owned by the parties. The master found Husband's testimony particularly credible and set the value of personalty at $24,619. (Id. at 3.) The master ordered that certain personal property in the home be returned to Husband with approximately $17,969 of personal property awarded to Wife. (Id. at 4.) The master also found that Husband owned investment accounts worth $5,509 and had a pension plan worth $11,001. He awarded these accounts to Husband. (Id. at 3-4.) Lastly, the master found that the parties had approximately $5,710 of debt at the time of separation. The debt was paid entirely by Husband. (Id. at 4.) ¶6 Wife filed exceptions to the master's second report, and argument was scheduled for January 4, 2006. Wife then filed for a continuance, and argument was rescheduled for February 22, 2006. In the interim, Husband died on January 8, 2006. The trial court proceeded with argument on the exceptions; and on March 13, 2006, the court denied Wife's exceptions and adopted the master's report. On March 17, 2006, the court entered a -3- J. A04003/07 divorce decree, granting a posthumous divorce to Husband on the grounds of mutual consent, 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3301(c). (See Docket No. 38.) Wife filed a notice of appeal on April 17, 20061 and was subsequently ordered by the trial court to file a concise statement of matters complained of on appeal pursuant to Pa.R.A.P. 1925(b). Wife timely complied and now raises two issues in her brief for our review. 1: Whether the court erred as a matter of law in adopting the master's report and recommendations where same did not equitably divide the property based upon the law and facts? 2: Whether the court erred as a matter of law in granting plaintiff/appellee's request for a post humous [sic] divorce? Wife's brief at 5. ¶7 Before we may reach the merits of Wife's appeal, we must first dispose of the several motions before us. First, on December 29, 2006, Wife filed a motion to strike appellee's brief for lack of standing pursuant to Pa.R.A.P. 502(a). In her motion, Wife states that Husband died on January 8, 2006 and was granted a posthumous divorce on March 16, 2006. Wife then filed the instant appeal on April 17, 2006. In her motion to strike, Wife claims that since the death of Husband, Jeffrey P. Derrico, Esq., as 1 Wife filed two notices of appeal, one from the March 13, 2006 order denying her exceptions and affirming the master's report (No. 698 WDA 2006) and one from the March 16, 2006 divorce decree (No. 699 WDA 2006). Pursuant to the order dated May 5, 2006 and filed June 15, 2006, this court sua sponte dismissed Wife's -4- J. A04003/07 Husband's attorney, no longer has a legal party in interest as a client, and thus, has no standing to file a brief in this matter. ¶8 However, since the filing of Wife's motion to strike, Attorney Derrico has filed a Suggestion of Death and Request for Substitution of Party on September 10, 2007.2 In his request for substitution, Attorney Derrico states that following a hearing to determine the appropriate representative for Husband's estate held on March 14, 2007, letters of administration pendente lite were granted to Craig E. Wynn, Esq. Attorney Derrico suggests that Attorney Wynn be substituted as the appellee representing the estate of Husband for the limited purpose of this divorce action and appeal before this court. ¶9 Pursuant to Pa.R.A.P. 502(a), Substitution of Parties, we appoint Craig E. Wynn, Esq., to represent the interests of Husband's estate for the limited purpose of this instant divorce action and appeal before this court, the enforcement of the equitable distribution ordered by this court, and any further appeals which this action may generate. Therefore, we deny Wife's motion to strike appellee's brief on the basis of a lack of standing. appeal at No. 698 WDA 2006 as duplicative. Both appeals involved issues arising out of the divorce action, and thus the appeal from the divorce decree was proper. 2 Previously, on February 8, 2007, Attorney Derrico filed a Suggestion of Death and Request for Substitution of Party suggesting that either himself or Susan P. Mazinnis, Husband's girlfriend, represent the interests of Husband's Estate in the instant action. However, we will defer to Husband's most recent filing and deny his first petition. -5- J. A04003/07 ¶ 10 We will now examine the merits of Wife's issues raised on appeal. First, we will discuss her argument that the trial court erred in granting Husband a posthumous divorce. Pennsylvania courts have long held that an action in divorce abates upon the death of either party. The rationale for this principle is that an action in divorce is personal to the parties and upon the death of either party, the action necessarily dies. The primary purpose of divorce is to change the relation of the parties and when the death of a party occurs, that purpose can no longer be achieved because the marital relationship has been ended by death. Yelenic v. Clark, 922 A.2d 935, 938 (Pa.Super. 2007) (citations omitted). Additionally, it has long been held by the Pennsylvania courts that equitable distribution occurs only after a divorce decree is issued. Savage v. Savage, 736 A.2d 633, 644 (Pa.Super. 1999); In re Estate of Bullotta, 575 Pa. 587, 591, 838 A.2d 594, 596 (2003). ¶ 11 However, on January 28, 2005, the Divorce Code was amended to provide that upon the death of a spouse, a divorce action will not abate so long as the grounds for divorce have been established. 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3323(d.1). Under this subsection, if grounds for divorce have been established as set forth in 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3323(g), then the parties' economic rights are determined under the equitable distribution principles rather than the elective share provisions of the Probate Code. ¶ 12 Wife argues that this new provision of the Divorce Code does not extend to allow a court to grant a posthumous divorce. We agree. Recently, -6- J. A04003/07 this court held in Yelenic that even in light of the latest amendments to the Divorce Code, specifically the addition of 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3323(d.1), that there is no statutory authority which allows for the entry of a posthumous divorce. Yelenic, supra. Thus, we must vacate the trial court's order granting the parties a divorce. ¶ 13 Although we have vacated the divorce decree between Husband and Wife, we find that this does not affect the trial court's order of equitable distribution based upon 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3323(d.1). ¶ 14 Section 3323(d.1) states: § 3323. Decree of Court .... (d.1) Death of a party.--In the event one party dies during the course of divorce proceedings, no decree of divorce has been entered and grounds have been established as provided in subsection (g), the parties' economic rights and obligations arising under the marriage shall be determined under this part rather than under 20 Pa.C.S. (relating to decedents, estates and fiduciaries). 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3323(d.1). Prior to Husband's death, grounds for divorce had been established under 23 Pa.C.S.A. §3301(c).3 On August 22, 2002 the 3 § 3301. Grounds for divorce (c) Mutual consent.--The court may grant a divorce where it is alleged that the marriage is irretrievably broken and 90 days have elapsed from the date of commencement of an action under this part and an affidavit has been filed by each of the parties evidencing that each of the parties consents to the divorce. -7- J. A04003/07 parties both alleged that the marriage was irretrievably broken and filed affidavits of consent to the divorce. (See Docket Nos. 8 and 9.) Therefore, we are able to determine the parties' economic rights and obligations under the principles of equitable distribution as established by statute. ¶ 15 Thus, we may now turn to the merits of Wife's second issue: whether the trial court erred in adopting the master's equitable distribution scheme. In general, this court will not disturb a trial court's equitable distribution order absent an abuse of discretion or error of law that is demonstrated by clear and convincing evidence. Gilliland v. Gilliland, 751 A.2d 1169, 1171 (Pa.Super. 2000), appeal denied, 563 Pa. 702, 761 A.2d 550 (2000). Additionally, the master's report and recommendation, although only advisory, is to be given the fullest consideration, particularly on the question of credibility of witnesses, because the master has the opportunity to observe and assess the behavior and demeanor of the parties. Moran v. Moran, 839 A.2d 1091, 1095 (Pa.Super. 2003). ¶ 16 There is no simple formula by which to divide marital property; the method of distribution derives from the facts of the individual case. Gaydos v. Gaydos, 693 A.2d 1368, 1376 (Pa.Super. 1997). In making an equitable distribution of property, the court must consider all relevant factors. See 23 Pa.C.S.A. § 3502. "The courts attempt to split property equitably, instead of equally, taking into consideration such factors as length of marriage, the contributions of both spouses, ages and health of each -8- J. A04003/07 spouse." Drake v. Drake, 555 Pa. 481, 490, 725 A.2d 717, 721 (1999). When reviewing an equitable distribution award, this court must consider the distribution scheme as a whole. Wang v. Feng, 888 A.2d 882, 887 (Pa.Super. 2005), citing Schenk v. Schenk, 880 A.2d 633, 643 (Pa.Super. 2005). ¶ 17 Instantly, in his report, the divorce master listed and individually discussed each of the relevant factors established in Section 3502. (Master's report and recommendations, 9/26/05 at 5-6.) In evaluating the factors, he determined that both parties have relatively similar education levels, sources of income, earning power, and health. He stated that he found Husband's testimony particularly credible regarding the value of the parties' personal property. (Id. at 3.) He also noted that Husband had assumed all of the parties' marital debt upon their separation due to Wife's fiscal irresponsibility. (Id.) He stated that upon separation, Wife remained in the marital home while Husband was forced to leave with only $6 in his pockets. (Id. at 2.) Wife then remained in the marital home throughout the separation beginning in June of 2001. The master did not divide the assets exactly equally between the parties; the disparity was approximately $6,131 additional given to Husband. However, as we previously stated, equitable distribution does not mean that assets will be divided equally. Drake, supra. -9- J. A04003/07 ¶ 18 Based upon the foregoing as well as the master's determination of credibility, we find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in adopting the master's report and recommendation regarding the equitable distribution of the parties' assets. Thus, we affirm the trial court's order as it pertains to equitable distribution. ¶ 19 Order vacated in part and affirmed in part. Motion to strike denied. "Suggestion of Death and Substitution of Party" filed February 8, 2007 denied; "Suggestion of Death and Substitution of Party" filed September 10, 2007 granted. Jurisdiction relinquished. - 10 -

First thing...my name is Angela. I am a single parent of four...two of whom will be in college this fall. I am a home body, but also like to go out and have a good time every now and again. I love the beach. There is something about it that makes all the cares of the world leave for that moment in time. As I grow older, I would love to travel more. My goal is to someday travel to Italy; as well as, on an international cruise. And I still haven't made it to Las Vegas, yet! I'd like to meet someone financially stable, kinda handsome, who can slow dance, and make me laugh :-) I believe a person who stands for something doesn't fall for just anything. So, I have decided that life is way too short to settle for nonsense, so I don't. I do ask that you have a spiritual walk with God.

Rudd and colleagues (2000) also showed that several studies examined patient education materials designed for specific ethnic groups. A substantial number of studies report on both readability and comprehension assessments of these documents, deeming most of them inappropriate (Austin et al., 1995; Delp and Jones, 1996; Jolly et al., 1993, 1995; Logan et al., 1996; Powers, 1988; Spandorfer et al., 1995; Williams et al., 1996). Hosey and colleagues (1990) used the Wide Range Achievement Test to measure the reading ability of a group of American Indian diabetic patients and found that although many patients scored at a reading grade level of 5, the diabetes education materials scored at a mean reading grade level of 10. Guidry, Fagan, and Walker (1998) note that less than half of the cancer education materials specifically targeting African Americans reflected the culture of African Americans and that few were written at a reading grade level for those with low literacy skills.
Finding 4-2 More than 300 studies indicate that health-related materials far exceed the average reading ability of U.S. adults.
News Media. The news media is a large part of America's health information revolution. More than a dozen exclusively health-related magazines are easily available at grocery stores and major bookstore chains every month in America. Magazines aimed at women, men, children, parents, and mothers are also widely available and carry numerous articles on a wide variety of health issues. Several of America's largest newspapers, reaching millions of people each day, carry health sections dedicated to health news. These health sections are read by people at all literacy levels. Three quarters of newspaper readers with NALS Level 1 literacy skills reported reading the home, fashion, health, or reviews sections, while 85 percent of newspaper readers with NALS Level 5 skills read these sections (health data alone was not available) (Kirsch et al., 1993). The major broadcast and cable networks have health journalists and health reporting. There are multiple cable channels dedicated to health topics and other channels dedicated to women's issues such as Oxygen, that cover health as a major focus. Some of broadcast TV's most popular shows—Oprah and more recently a spin-off called Dr. Phil, regularly carry health information and advice. Health news, such as SARS, heart disease, obesity, antibiotic resistance, and smallpox vaccination has been a centerpiece in newspaper headlines dozens of times in 2002–2003 alone.
Advertising and Marketing. Advertising is also a prominent source of health information. Scott-Levin, a drug market research firm in Newtown, Pennsylvania, reports that while all visits to physician's offices rose 2 percent in

Rated 5 out of 5 by RIZ Great Phone! I like the features and battery life of the phone. May 13, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Planet Scott Everything is great but the battery life. This has been my best phone to date, however the battery life is insane. When I say insane, I mean it is so inconsistent. Most of the time it is awful for a 3000mAh battery. Then, every week or so, I get 2 days out of a charge. I've tried everything to resolve this and no luck. I am waiting on the Lollipop upgrade hoping that will help. If not for the inconsistent battery, I would keep this phone for years. April 1, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by HengBoyBoy Hardware isn't good!!! especially the touch screen The LG D801 get hot very fast while you are playing some game or internet and then about the touch screen is absolutely poor ....... February 18, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Fred Worst phone I have ever had. Designed to break. This phone is the worst phone I have ever owned. It is fast, has a pleasant interface, and never seems to glitch or slow. But it is the worst phone I have ever owned because it breaks at the slightest provocation. Never in my life had I ever broken a phone, but now I have broken 3, and all three of them were of this model. It is one solid piece, so you have no access to the battery. If even the slightest bit of liquid seeps into the bottom of the phone the screen it will immediately fry and prevent you from turning it off to preserve the phone. In addition, if the phone is dropped from even a small distance its screen will shatter, rendering the phone inoperable. Don't let this phone's flashy features distract you from the fact that it is designed to break so that you have to buy another one. February 3, 2015

This is a replacement of another brand laminator I own, that constantly messed up my personal items (could not get hot enough, also took too long to heat up). I have been using Scotch brand for years, I didn't heastate when purchasing this laminator, knowing it would be the quality I expect. Until I purchased the Scotch laminator, I bought the Scotch self-sealing pouches. Making this purchased was a much more affordable option after seeing how much I laminate. I did not intend to purchase a laminator, but while out shopping, the extremely low price caught my attention and i could not pass it up. I knew I would not be out good money spent. After a short few minutes to warm up, the go light turns on and it is ready to work. While this box contains the laminating pouches, it does not include the thermal folder. Luckily, I already had the folder with plenty of extra Scotch 3M thermal pouches at home from my previous unnamed-piece-of-junk machine. Also, it is suprisingly lightweight which makes it easy to transport if needed. Highly recommended!

I bought this machine a little over a year ago and only used it about 3 times for really small jobs. When I turned it on this morning it lit up and seemed to be working fine. I went to do my laminating about 10 minutes later and it had completely shut down and stopped working. I was thinking it was a fluke so I tried it in different outlets, after it cooled down, and several hours later when I came home from work, and it still didn't work. Big waste of my money! Unfortunately, even though it laminated great for me, it was a big piece of junk.

Comments about 3M TL-901 Thermal Laminator:
This laminator is amazing. I teach first grade, and I make many of the games and math and literacy centers that I use in my classroom. For durability, everything has to be laminated. I purchased this inexpensive laminator to use since I can't always laminate at school and have things ready in time to use in the classroom. I have lamininated hundreds of pages or cardstock, and this little machine works like a charm!

I have another brand laminator, but this one is so easy to use and has all the features of more expensive ones, that I will be using it most often. Heats up quickly and can stay on for extended periods of time without over-heating. If it sits unused for more that 1hr just run a plain sheet of copy thru before your project. It's very light weight so I can carry it in my scrap-booking bag to take with me.
Scotch is the brand you can trust
By Brian D
from Near New York City (suburbs)
I have been using Scotch brand for so many years, that I don't even give it a second thought when deciding on which brand to purchase. When it was time for some laminating projects, I compared the price of those "self-sealing" laminating pouches to the reliable Scotch brand "thermal laminating" pouches. The price is what initially caught my immediate attention. This unit takes merely a few minutes to warm up, then you are ready to go. With every project so far, I am thrilled to recommend the Scotch Thermal Laminator (TL-901) for you. One more thing to add: The price is so affordable, you could easily give it as a gift.

We bought the machine for our volunteer fire department to protect all of our members certificates clean and protected. It has worked very well. It is very nice to know our important paperwork is protected. Thanks.
The Best Laminator

This is by far the best laminator I've used! I bought it after our new school laminator messed up my stuff again. I'm so glad I did-it's easy to use and using it at home is convienent for this busy mom and teacher

The Green Bay Packers' first order of business in the free agency period wasn't signing a big-name free agent, it was trading one.
Early Thursday evening, the Packers agreed to trade defensive tackle Corey Williams to the Cleveland Browns for a second-round pick, according to an NFL source familiar with the deal. The trade comes less than two weeks after the Packers used the franchise tag to prevent Williams from leaving in free agency without compensation.
The Packers appeared willing to keep Williams around for the one-year, $6.363 million offer they were required to make as part of the franchise designation, but interest in the 6-foot-4, 320-pound Williams was enough that they were able to get an acceptable amount of compensation for him.
The trade was first reported Thursday night by the Washington Post, and shortly afterward a second source familiar with the dealings told the Journal Sentinel that it would not be until today that everything would be wrapped up, including finalization of a long-term deal between Williams and the Browns.
In exchange for Williams, the Packers are getting a second-round pick very close to the one they have in that round. The Browns' pick sits 56th overall, the Packers own the 60th pick.
Including the 30th pick overall, the Packers have three draft picks in the first 60 and have the kind of ammunition that could vault them into the first half of the first round if they can find a trading partner. General manager Ted Thompson has never traded up in a draft and could also choose to stay put and reap the benefits of what is considered a deep and talented draft.
Packers officials were unavailable for comment and Williams' agent, Mitch Frankel, did not return a phone message.
Before the Packers could trade Williams, they had to sign him to a contract because NFL rules prohibit teams from trading franchise and transition players who have not signed their one-year qualifying offers. Williams had a lot of leverage because the deal couldn't be completed until he agreed to sign a contract.
The Packers gave the Browns permission to negotiate with Williams so a long-term deal could be reached. The sides were able to hammer out a deal that was agreed upon Thursday night but still needs to be finalized.
Williams appears in line for a huge payday given some of the contracts being signed on the eve of free agency. Oakland defensive lineman Tommy Kelley signed a deal reported to be worth $50.5 million over seven years, and Williams is thought to have reached a deal slighty below that.
One reason the Packers had to use the franchise tag is that they couldn't meet Williams' demands on a long-term contract. When they placed the tag on Williams, the Packers had to offer a one-year deal worth $6.363 million, which is the average of the five highest-paid defensive tackles in 2007.
Once Williams is traded, the $6.363 million amount will be added to the team's salary cap, giving them roughly $24 million of room.

LAWRENCEVILLE — Never in a "million years" would Sherrie Kinsler leave her students midway through the school year. And if for some reason she did, who would would take over for her?
That became a reality last year when teachers' pensions changed, and Kinsler moved up her retirement plans about six months from the original May date. When Principal Melissa Walker informed Kinsler of her plans for a replacement, she exhaled.
The new third-grade teacher at Benefield Elementary was Hye Eun, who 14 years ago came to Kinsler's class after her family migrated from Korea.
"I can't do this, I can't do this," Kinsler said was her first thought about retiring during the middle of the school year after more than 27 years at Benefield and 34-plus in education. "But once I found out she was taking my place, I was like, 'All right, that takes the pressure off.' Because I knew they were going to be in good hands. It was different last year, because I kept calling that class my class and I had to quit doing that."
Searching through a tough job market following graduation from Georgia State University, Eun joined Benefield on a part-time basis as a support teacher.
The school appealed to her because it was her first school in America, and she came to Kinsler's class before she spoke a word of English. It helped that on Eun's first day there as a student that another student from Korea also joined Kinsler's class.
"I was so excited about everything," Eun said of arriving at Benefield as a student. "When I first walked into Mrs. Kinsler's room, everyone was so welcoming. They were so willing to help out, I didn't feel left out."
Kinsler said the language barrier didn't stop the other students from communicating with Eun and their other Korean classmate, Samuel. It also didn't take long for Eun to excel in the classroom.
"They really take them in and help them so much," Kinsler said. "This is where the book bags go, this is where you do this, this is where you get this. They couldn't communicate back to me, but they understood what to do, and when I would give directions, they would shake their heads. From coming in and not knowing the language and culture, (she) was a sponge. Everything went in, and she was one of the top students probably by the end of the year."
Eun, who went on to Berkmar High and the University of Georgia before transferring to Georgia State, initially began a career pursuit in the pharmaceutical field.
"As I started taking more education courses, and started doing my internship, I realized I really like it, I enjoy it," she said.
When Eun took over the classroom, Kinsler left materials and supplies, which prevented Eun from having to buy anything on her own. Kinsler also showed Eun the importance of organization around the classroom, which translates to more focused students.
"If your room's not piled up, your kids see that your room's neat and things are good for you, they tend to do better," Kinsler said. "If things are falling out of a desk, and everything is disheveled, it's hard for them to learn that way."
Because Kinsler has returned to Benefield as a long-term substitute — "I have the best of both worlds, really," she said — she's available for Eun to use as a sounding board.
"Sometimes we have difficult days," Eun said. "Sometimes just talking makes you feel better."
And she feels fortunate to land at her first school in America.
"I love teaching and really like this school," Eun said. "It's special to me because I went here."

Customer Reviews of Acoustic Audio AA2101 2.1 Speaker System - 250 W RMS - iPod Supported
Great service and product12/18/2012
The shipping, service and product was excellent.
Don't understand a bad rating for these speakers. I play my iTunes music on these speakers and great sound. Deep tone.
Nice size but has a ground noise.3/22/2012
The speakers sit close to me and there is a open ground. Other than that, they are decent little speakers.
Don't waste your time and money12/20/2011
Do not buy this product. Very cheap quality and the sound is no good even when connected to Itouch. False advertising it is no Home Theater product.
Good for Small Home Theater or Computer System6/24/2011
I purchased these for a bedroom LCD TV system. They speaker in the TV is pretty lousy, so getting better quality sound wasn't going to take a lot. At this price I figured it was worth the shot, and I'm glad I took it. I'm not an audio expert, but I do know that the way manufacturers divide up the wattage output can be confusing. Remember that the 250w is divided between the 3 speakers. Also remember, that increasing wattage is not simply about a number. To double the sound on a TV speaker, which is typically 5 watts, you'd have to go 10x the actual wattage. So, jumping to 50 watts per speaker can effectively double your sound without blowing out the speaker -- assuming the amplifier can handle the output. That's why having a powered speaker system is important. It reduces the draw of power to the tv and puts it in the speaker system. In short, this is a decent system for a small room with a regular LCD type TV. In my case, it runs with a 23" Vizio TV in a 10x12 foot room, and that is sufficient for a guest or child.6 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Not what you pay for. (250watts)5/20/2011
In the advertisment it says 250 watts when it really has less then 22 watts. I bought this to replace my Altec Lansing 22 watts 2.1 system that i payed $19 dollars for. This is not even close to being as loud as my Altec Lansing system and it's double the money. If you are expecting a somewhat loud speaker system or (250 watts) of power. This is not the one.28 Helpful | 2 Not Helpful

About the Seller
Seller Description
How do we sell High Quality Products at such Low Prices?
Essentially there are three factors that allow us to negotiate killer pricing that we can pass through to our customers. First, we buy container loads of products direct from the factory; this saves them from storage and warehousing, shipping, and inspection. Second we provide our manufacturers with a guaranteed annual purchase, and finally we buy out the warranty because we offer a life time warranty on almost all of our products, now that's priceless. We simply get outstanding products at the very lowest price direct from the Factory, and we back it all up with the best customer service you will ever encounter online. OnlyFactoryDirect was started out of the need to provide high quality audio products direct to the consumer. Based in the wholesale market for decades with contacts for high quality products from all over the world, OFD stepped out of the distribution chain from selling to other distributors and retail stores to directly selling to the consumer. This direct line from the factory to the consumer means lower prices while still maintaining high quality.

Video: Geico Skytypers cruise over Lake Michigan before Milwaukee Air & Water Show
I had never truly appreciated Milwaukee's lakefront until I sailed over it at 1,200 feet aboard the Geico Skytyper SNJ2 -- an aircraft used in the 1940s to train World War II soldiers for single seat Mustang fighters.
The ride lent itself to an up-close-and-personal view of the city. The pilot flew with the cockpit open at 135 mph. And while the aircraft welcomed its share of jostles, shakes and full-body thrusts while cruising over Lake Michgian, the unforgettable airborn performance stirred up ample excitement for the fleet's debut at the Milwaukee Air & Water Show this weekend. »Read Full Blog Post
More binge-viewing options beckon after 'Breaking Bad'
Has the end of "Breaking Bad" left you with a case of quality TV withdrawal? Understandable — even Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins was so smitten by "Breaking Bad" he wrote a fan letter to Bryan Cranston, who played Walter White, the science teacher turned meth manufacturer, after Hopkins finished binge-watching the show.
He called Cranston's performance "the best acting I have seen — ever" and wrote that the show was "spectacular — absolutely stunning....What started as a black comedy, descended into a labyrinth of blood, destruction and hell." »Read Full Article
28-year-old Eleanor Catton's Booker-winning 'The Luminaries' casts a brilliant light
Begin with an intricate, self-consciously Victorian plot, of the page-turning sort that Sarah Waters gives us in "Fingersmith." Mix with the psychologically intense, cat-and-mouse dialogue that characterizes the novels of Henry James. Add the moral and philosophical vision of George Eliot. Bake in a deliberately mythic structure that calls to mind James Joyce's "Ulysses."
What emerges is 28-year-old Eleanor Catton's "The Luminaries," an 848-page dish so fresh that one continues to gorge, long past being crammed full of goodness. Nearly impossible to put down, it's easily the best novel I've read this year. The Man Booker judges feel the same way, having just given her this year's prize. »Read Full Article

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — General Motors Co. announced plans Monday to pour $600 million into upgrades at its assembly plant in Kansas City, Kan., an investment that likely ensures the facility's long-term viability.
Construction on a new 450,000-square-foot paint shop, a stamping press and efficiency enhancements at the Fairfax Assembly Plant will begin this year and should take about two years to complete, GM Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson said.
"This major investment is a vote of confidence in the employees and leadership of this plant and will allow them to continue producing beautiful, world-class vehicles ... with the same quality workmanship that has defined the Fairfax complex for nearly 70 years," Akerson said during a visit to the plant.
Akerson told a crowd that included Gov. Sam Brownback, Mayor Joe Reardon and a few hundred Fairfax employees that the company was experiencing a "renaissance" and that the Fairfax plant would be among the automaker's "crown jewels." He said the $600 million was among the largest single-plant investments in GM's history.
GM, one of the Kansas' largest employers, announced earlier this month that it would invest about $1.5 billion in its North American facilities in 2013. The company has invested about $2.5 billion in the Fairfax plant in the last decade, showing the company's commitment to Kansas City, Akerson said.
GM nearly ran out of cash in 2008 and needed a $49.5 billion bailout from the U.S. government to stay in business. The company went through bankruptcy protection in 2009 to shed debt and burdensome contracts. Since then, a smaller, leaner GM has made money for 11 straight quarters and piled up $16 billion in profits.
"You all have been through some times," Akerson said. "In fact, the last four years have been really tough. They've been lean. But the tide has turned. .... By way of your commitment, your tenacity, your persistence, your support, we have done more than just survive. GM is thriving with the best in the industry."
The U.S. government got stock in GM in exchange for the bailout, and last month GM bought back 200 million of its shares for $5.5 billion. The government still holds 300 million shares, but has pledged to sell them by early next year.
GM sold 9.29 million cars and trucks worldwide in 2012, making it second only behind Japan's Toyota in global sales.

Well you also gotta factor in that dude has 9 pints in his head alone. If he was the victim in that Miami face eating incident,the face eater wouldn't have made it past his brow.

More like a dip in cabin pressure. Brah,I have a plate where my growth plate in my right ankle was shattered. I've broken many many bones but never any open wounds. I'm not trying to say it was anything severe. My finger is forever altered and numb at the very tip of it but it never was painful,I just felt like I was going to faint but idk what that's like because I've never been ko'd by anything other than chemicals.

No way that was enough blood loss to make him feel even slightly woozy or faint. He was blinded for sure but in a horrible position regardless.I gashed my head open badly; 11 staples across and 7 down, against the skull on the side so i bled like a stuck pig - wrapped it in my t-shirt, stuck my socks on top to soak it up and went back to my friend to drive me to the hospital. Never got even a bit dizzy or lightheaded. He was a huge dude though, and almost fainted at the sight of my blood. Some can deal with it, some can't...

Take the biggest baddest guy in the world, and he's waaaaay more likely to gag at the sight of a poopy diaper, or faint and smack his head at the sight of blood.
5/31/12 1:07 AM by Joshua J King
Ahh I did that too,pulled it back. Just almost fell down,light headed like I did some nitrous or acid kicking in.
5/31/12 1:05 AM by stonepony
Exactly right Hex. People in war have had their leg blown off, tied it off, and never come close to fainting. A split finger tip, and the blood loss, won't make you faint. The sight of a split finger will though. If you're a guy.Females are hard-wired to be able to deal with this stuff. It's part of the reason they make better nurses. Because they're built to make good mothers. If women passed out from the sight of blood, children who get injured would be less likely to survive. Those women would also be less likely to survive child birth.It's the same reason that women have a higher tolerance for pain.
5/30/12 9:55 PM by HexRei
Seems unlikely that you lost a significant amount of blood from a cut on your finger. Certainly not enough to "make you feel like you were gonna pass out". There are other physiological and psychological effects that can account for the way you felt and make more sense.
5/30/12 9:50 PM by rockwell
I was underwhelmed with this fight as I really would have liked to see how it played out without the cut. Not to take anything from Cain. He was throwing them bows in anger. He was anything but underwhelming. But a cut like that is a bit of a "freak" situation (reminds me a bit of Shoguns arm break against Coleman). Yes, the guy who won showed skills and it's not a knock on them. Just saying it would've been more interesting to see it play out.

DETROIT -- The Cleveland Indians might add one more piece of evidence to the oft-repeated claim this season that Major League umpires are acting unprofessional by provoking players and managers.Terry Francona was ejected from his teams 6-4 loss to the Tigers on Saturday, but Francona said he never intended to confront home plate umpire Andy Fletcher, or get thrown out. He just wanted to ensure a discussion between Fletcher and Nick Swisher did not get out of control.The way Andy approached me I thought he lost his composure and I dont think I had any chance of staying in that game, Francona said. Spit coming out of his mouth and the gesturing and everything. I didnt go out there to get thrown out. I just wanted to make sure nothing was going on.Francona went out to protect Swisher when he saw a conversation between Swisher and Fletcher between the top and bottom of the eighth start to get heated.Swish and he were talking along the first-base line, Francona said. It looked to me like...

Women Report from Abroad: Personal Stories of Foreign Aid Success
Dining for Women
Monday, March 11, 2013 from 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM (EDT)
Women Report from Abroad: Personal Stories of Foreign Aid Success
This program part of our monthlong commemoration of International Women's Day (March 8) and focuses on how US foreign aid helps improve the lives of women and girls in developing nations.
We are joined by Oxfam America in presenting this program, which will feature an inspiring story from Rokeya Kabir, a frontline activist for women's rights and human rights in Bangladesh. In 2005, Rokeya was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize as part of the "1000 Women for Peace". She is the founder and executive director of the Bangladesh Nari Progati Sangha - one of the principal women's organizations in Bangladesh and has directly served, since 1986, about 100,000 women.
Dining for Women founder and president Marsha Wallace will also be speaking at the event and focusing on our core mission of investing in women and girls in developing countries - how it pays off and the positive role that US Foreign Aid plays in those efforts.
Dining for Women is a global dinner giving circle. We "dine in" together once a month, each bringing a dish to share, and send our "dining out" dollars to international programs empowering women.
Through our members' combined dinner donations, we support grass-roots programs for women fostering good health, education, vocational training, micro-credit loans and economic development. By educating our members about the circumstances of women living in some of the poorest countries in the world, our members become agents of change, inspired to make a difference through the power of collective giving.
Visit our website to become part of our circles of change and support.

I guess it's somewhat normal for extremely tall individuals tend to have incredibly skinny legs, but Knicks center Tyson Chandler's gams look downright ridiculous to the point that you might think this picture is photoshopped, which, from all accounts, it's not… It's all well and good that Chandler's upper body is looking quite chiseled and firm, but would it kill him to throw in a squat or two? On the plus side he can wear the hell out of a pair of skinny jeans tailored specifically for the overly tall gentleman, if he's into that sort of thing.

Dyun27: As amazing as this camera sounds, the 28 megapixel crop sensor would worry me. It's already challenging not to introduce motion blur to the 16 megapixel D7000 sensor with longer lenses, it's definitely challenging with the 36 megapixel full frame sensor of the D800 and the D7100 24 megapixel sensor.
At 28 megapixels with a crop sensor it means having to use higher ISO settings, faster shutter speeds and using VR whenever possible. At that point I'd have to start taking a monopod or tripod wherever I go. Only the shorter lenses would be easy to use.
I have a 24MP camera and the worries are simply like FEAR; which is False Evidence Appearing Real. Unless and if you are regularly producing prints that exceed 20X30" [50.8 cm X 76.2 cm] I have not seen any problems [unless you count better quality as a problem]. I got good results with a 10MP camera and get much better result with the 24MP camera. A photo taken with the 10MP that you can see motion will still be seen with the 24MP camera and will work the other way also till you get below the pixel level on the larger pixeled camera.
The truth is if you use anything remotely like proper technique it will not be a problem unless you have an inability to hold reasonably still for medical or other reason. You will almost never have to raise the shutter speed or ISO and basically you will not need VR any time you would not need it otherwise. But use it if it makes you feel better it is a nice safety net.
Geeeez!! It is small compared to my DSLR, and the 4 to 6 plus lenses I would have to carry to cover its range. So that is not the question. The questions are quality of the images and, speed of the RAW [my S9100 was 10 seconds per shot in RAW], street price and handling, and HIGH ISO Shots quality along with other smaller questions.
If it passes these tests I may get one as my primary back u-p and carry around since it is sa SMALL by comparison.
Yes!!! Irealize it is larger than a micro with their limited quality and abilities but otherwise it is a great size and yes I would like a Micro camera [Shirt pocket size] for my wife and as a replacement for my F30. But this is a much more practical camera size.
Interesting! Seems to be a Very unfair review. am I missing something???
You compared a [US street price] $109 HP against a Epson $171 and a Canon [indicated the best] at $390.
Why not compare a cheap Canon against an expensive HP and Epson and see what happens then.

What's wrong with photos looking like they were made with a Holga? People pay enormous amounts for smartphones with very good cameras built in and then go out of their way to make photos that look like they were made with a Holga.

HMCS Magnificent (CVL 21) was a Majestic-class light aircraft carrier that served the Royal Canadian Navy from 1948–1956.
Operational history[edit]
The third ship of the Majestic class, Magnificent was built by Harland and Wolff, laid down 29 July 1943 and launched 16 November 1944. Purchased from the Royal Navy (RN) to replace HMCS Warrior, she served in a variety of roles, operating both fixed and rotary-wing aircraft. She was generally referred to as the Maggie. Her aircraft complement included Fairey Fireflies and Hawker Sea Furies, as well as Seafires and Avengers.
1949 'mutiny'[edit]
On 20 March 1949, while on fleet manoeuvres in the Caribbean, thirty-two aircraft handlers on the Magnificent briefly refused an order to turn to morning cleaning stations to protest various grievances. The captain acted with great sensitivity to defuse the crisis, holding an informal discussion with the disgruntled crew members and carefully using the term "incident" instead of "mutiny", which could have resulted in severe legal consequences for the handlers.
At almost the same time, similar incidents happened on Crescent, at Nanjing, China and on Athabaskan at Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico, both of whose captains acted similarly to that of the Magnificent.[1]
In 1953 she took part in the Fleet Review to celebrate the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.[2]
Suez Crisis[edit]
Her last role was as a transport during the Suez Crisis, carrying a large part of the Canadian peacekeeping force to Egypt, its vehicles parked on her deck.
Magnificent was decommissioned by the RCN in 1956 replaced in RCN service by HMCS Bonaventure, another RN Majestic class carrier (HMS Powerful) that had not been completed at the end of the war. Magnificent was returned to the RN in 1957 and placed in reserve until disposed of. The ship was broken up in Faslane in July 1965.[3]
