Corporate Restructurings, Debt-for-Equity Swaps: Competition Law Perspectives

This article discusses the application and practical implications of merger control rules to certain transactions not traditionally seen as mergers; namely, the taking for a certain period of time of an equity stake by a bank in a company that faces financial difficulty, in return for a write-down of (some of) the outstanding debt. This "debt-for-equity swap" is usually part of a wider restructuring and refinancing.
The authors suggest that such transactions rarely raise competition law concerns and that the application of merger control rules (and, in particular, obligations under the European regime as well as others to suspend completion until a formal clearance has been obtained) can be an unwanted and unnecessary additional hurdle in what is already a stressful and complex deal. At a time when restructurings are prevalent, we suggest that thought might be given to possible changes to the application of suspensory obligations for debt-for-equity deals.

History of Congress and the Capitol
This is the story of one of the world's great experiments in government by the people.
For more than two centuries, a new Congress has convened every two years following elections that determine all the seats in the House and one-third of those in the Senate. While the individuals change, the institution has endured-through civil and world wars, waves of immigration and great migrations, and continuous social and technological change.

Most Americans greeted the 20th century with optimism. The early decades saw economic growth and the expansion of democracy as women gained the vote. But two world wars, the Great Depression, and the nuclear age later tested such confidence.

The Global FlyFisher - The Largest and Best Place to go for Online Fly Fishing and Fly Tying
Tie Better
Better-Winged Olives
Making a classic tried-n-true fly one step better
Photo by S. Schweitzer - ©2003
BWO Cripple
A blue-winged olive cripple mayfly found on the South Platte River in Colorado. Notice the body segmentation and chunky thorax. These are two elements the Better-Winged Olive imitates. Also notice on this severely crippled subject the shortened tail filaments, the underdeveloped wings and forelegs, and the under-developed right eye (the orange left eye is the proper form for this species of mayfly on the South Platte River).
A recent tying binge left me with a few thoughts on how to tie a quicker and better blue-winged olive mayfly for the upcoming BWO season in Colorado. I've always been a fan of A.K. Best's theories on quill-bodied mayflies; they only make perfect sense. Quill-bodied flies provide distinct segmentation in the body (just like the natural) and there is no dry fly dubbing to absorb the water and make the fly sink.
However, I am also a fan of the KISS principle when tying. I loose too many flies to make them each works of art and I don't have time to strip quills and tie on delicate little feathertip wings. So off I went into the deep crevaces of the GFF flytying lab to see what I could do with making a better BWO.
After observing many blue-winged olive mayflies over the course of several seasons worth of hatches across many rivers in Colorado, I collected the following observations for myself (there's nothing new here...):
- BWO's have a chunky thorax that is quite pronounced
- BWO's lay quite low in the water surface
- BWO tails average about a bodies' length, although I have seen some almost 2x long and some as short as 1/2 the body length...let's call 1x-1.5x the average. I tend to tie in 2x lengths and trim to the length required on stream.
So I took my observations, the typical BWO pattern and some lessons learned from A.K. Best and experimented in the lab. The pattern illustrated below is what resulted... a quick-to-tie and better BWO, in my opinion. But, the fish will be the ultimate judges of that, right?!

I spotted a rising trout on the South Platte River in Colorado during a recent flyfishing trip (Shown in the picture left). I casted a Better-Winged Olive a few times and got the trout to choose my fly over the naturals. Below is the culprit. Notice the size 20 BWO pattern in the lower right-hand corner.

The Bill of Materials
The materials for a Better-Winged Olive are simple, using only four, plus tying thread.
|Thread & hook
|Olive 8/0, size 16 - 22 dry fly hook
|3 or 4 grey or clear micro-fibetts
|Olive goose biot
|Olive less-absorbent dubbing material such as SLF, beaver or antron. Avoid using camel, rabbit or some other fine, absorbent material.
|Grey (dun) hackle
Photo by S. Schweitzer - ©2003
Better-Winged Olive attempts to focus on things trout can see by imitating the natural's chunky thorax more closely and put less attention on things above the water surface, such as wings.
Step 1.
One secret to making the BWO ride flush in the surface film is to raise the tail just slightly from the plane of the hook shank. Do this by building up a slight thread bump at the tail above the hook barb. It helps to flatten the thread slightly by twirling the bobbin counter-clockwise to undo the natural twist in tying thread.
Read more about thread control in this article by GFF Partner Martin Joergensen.
Step 2.
Tie in the micro-fibett tail fibers (3 or 4 will do) and allow the thread bump to elevate the tailing upwards slightly.
Try to use only 1 wrap to hold the tail fibers in place. Once they are secure, tie on a goose biot by the pointed end.
Be sure to select a goose biot with sufficient length. On size 16 hooks, you'll need the longest ones available to you.
Tying Tip:
Step 3.
Tie off the biot and move the thread back to the 2/3rd's point on the hook shank as shown in the picture to the right.
Apply enough dubbing to form a chunky thorax being sure not to overdo the dubbing. Remember that you still must wrap a hackle feather over the dubbing. Don't worry about making the dubbing pretty.
Step 4.
Strip off a few fibers from the end of the dry fly hackle and tie in the stem across the top of the dubbed thorax.
For a size 16, make 4-5 turns of hackle.
For a size 18, make 3-4 turns of hackle.
For a size 20 and 22, make 2-3 turns of hackle.
Tying Tip:
A dubbed body makes hackling more durable by allowing the hackle stem to seat more firmly in the dubbing.
We aren't done yet! This nearly finished dry fly will ride too high on the water. See the next step.
Step 5.
Making a BWO ride low on the water's surface is key to imitating a natural more closely.
Trim the bottom of the hackle fibers at a slight angle backwards towards the tail, just above the hook point. It is not wrong to also trim the fibers off even with the hook point.

A finished Better-Winged Olive rides low on the water's surface.
Eric Peper recently wrote me an email, adding his secret for making Better-Winged Olives:
"Enjoyed the article on your BWO pattern, particularly because the design is very close to a design I worked out for BWOs and PMDs a year or so ago -- with one exception. I add a sparse post wing of medium dun Zelon right at the tie-in point of the thorax, and I palmer the dun hackle over the thorax with a couple of wraps on either side of the wing. Reason was that I "see" a shiny wing on most natural duns and the sparse bubnch of Zelon mimics it well."
A batch of Better-Winged Olives shows the body segmentation and heavy thorax areas.

You are my lord, you are whatever anyone prays too... and I love you for bringing this series back on the craziest of all demented tracks. The first, original;funny;crazy. SECOND!: Disturbing, unforgettable. Third: I thought it was outdone, and nothing will help it again. It was still good, but I just thought it wasn't your normal work.... but this one, oh my god. Creativity beyond the mind can handle, and a little disturbing too. I loved it! Oh man! Never stop! YOU SHOULD COME OUT WITH A DVD OR SOMETHING! I'D BE THE FIRST TO BUY!
I love this stuff!
I was one of the first to vote on this movie! (came back later to review) I've been digging in the Portal, and if you keep this score (4.37) up, you'll be 0.13 above the #1 rated movie in the Portal. Great stuff, man!
Another great addition
Excellent work, keep it up. I'm loving what Salad Fingers brings to NG. It's strange to know you're the same animator who made Burnt Face Man, another one I thought was excellent, for entirely different reasons! Just don't 'sell out' and force yourself to make episodes to please everyone, just make them when they come to you. The appeal is in the weirdness, and this one just didn't rattle my dags as much as the three previous ones. Don't make a jurassic park 3 in other words. It's better to go out on a good note than fade away, right? I really like that scribble thing you do when you first see the boy. It's good stuff, got my 5.

Thank you for your question. Without having examined your eyes personally and without reviewing the results of past exams and tests, it is nearly impossible for me to give a completely accurate answer. What I can say is that if your eye pressure was in the mid-20s in December of 2011 and March of 2012, and you continued using the same eye drop, it would be rather unusual for the pressure to drop to 10 or 11 in June of 2012 because of the drops alone. If you have been on the same drop regimen from December 2011 until now, eye pressure would not likely change that dramatically. Given that you went to a different clinic, I would wonder if the pressure was accurately taken at one or the other. I would recommend having the pressure taken again relatively soon and determine what the pressure really is. Secondly, I would ask the eye doctor to examine you for any signs of inflammation within the eye. It is always possible that there is inflammation that is decreasing the amount of fluid created in the eye (hence the lowering of the pressure). To reiterate, it is unusual to have intraocular pressure in the mid-twenties on multiple occasions, and then without changing medications have the pressure drop that much. If the readings were accurate, the doctor should be able to help you find a reason for the drop in eye pressure. I would highly advise continuing the eye drops until you can be re-examined by your eye doctor and at that point you can determine whether or not the drops should be continued. Do not stop the drops your own. I wish you the best of luck.
Thank you for your question. First, let me say that I am incredibly sorry that you have gone through all of this. Without having examined your eyes personally and without reviewing the results of past exams, tests, and procedure notes (including the laser settings used), it is nearly impossible for me to give a completely accurate answer. I don't know if it was related to the laser alone, the use of the steroid eye drops (Durezol), or a combination of both. Laser treatments, either selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) or argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT), are both commonly used as treatments for glaucoma.
The appropriate power that needs to be used varies for each patient, and is mostly related to the amount of pigment in the trabecular meshwork (i.e., the drainage system) of the eye. The more pigment in the trabecular meshwork, typically the less power is needed. When eye doctors perform SLT they typically start at a relatively low power and increase it until they see tiny bubbles form at the trabecular meshwork after about 50% of the laser spots are created. When performing ALT, doctors should see a blanching of the trabecular meshwork to know that they have used enough power. Again, you start at a lower power and work up until you see the blanching so that you know that you are not over-treating.
Laser surgery is relatively well tolerated; however, it is a surgery. Before any surgery, your eye doctor should discuss the risks, benefits, and alternatives before you agree to have any procedure performed in the office or in the operating room. There is a small risk that the laser procedure can cause an increase in the eye pressure and that is always something I discuss with my patients. I have my patients wait approximately 20-30 minutes after the procedure and I check the pressure before they leave to make sure that it has remained stable. If the pressure goes up immediately, this can often be reversed in the office with a couple of additional pressure lowering drops and in most people the elevated pressure does not last long. It is very common to have a slight headache after the laser procedure, and patients may not feel like doing much that evening, but extreme pain is unusual. There is often a small amount of inflammation that occurs in the eye after the procedure, and it is not uncommon that doctors prescribe an anti-inflammatory eye drop for approximately one week. Unfortunately, I am not sure if you will ever really know why the pressure went up. Hopefully your eye doctor can get the pressure under control and work to preserve as much vision as possible.
That is a great question. The answer often depends on the doctor doing the surgery. If possible, I will often times have my patients stop their prostaglandin analog (Xalatan, Travatan, Lumigan, or generic) a few days prior to cataract surgery because of a slight increased risk of swelling in the retina (called cystoid macular edema) after cataract surgery when you are on those medications.
Often the choice of whether or not to restart the medication after surgery is dependent on what the pressure in the eye is after cataract surgery. There has been some interesting new data that shows there is an approximate 2 mmHg drop in intraocular pressure that lasts for about two years after cataract surgery (there is not a full understanding of why this happens, but many researchers are currently looking into it). If the pressure has dropped sufficiently after the cataract surgery, it may not be necessary to restart the prostaglandin analog (Xalatan in your case) unless the pressure goes up again above your goal intraocular pressure. In other cases, even if there is a small drop in pressure, it may not be low enough to achieve your goal intraocular pressure, so the doctor will likely restart all of the glaucoma medications after a certain time period after surgery. Again, this is all dependent on the doctor's preferences and how your eye responds to the cataract surgery. Keep your regularly scheduled appointments and the doctor will monitor your pressure and make adjustments to your glaucoma medications accordingly. I wish you the best of luck
Thanks for your question. Of course it is difficult without examining you to tell if you should have SLT, but I can address your questions about eye pressure rises after SLT. While I certainly always warn patients of this risk when I talk with them about this procedure, it is generally infrequent, on the order of 3 - 5 percent, and it is not usually sustained. I have heard a few anecdotal cases of sustained eye pressure rises requiring surgery, but these situations are uncommon. There are also several maneuvers your ophthalmologist can do to minimize the risk of an eye pressure spike with SLT. I always give my patients a drop of apraclonidine (or brimonidine) before the procedure to reduce the risk of an eye pressure increase. I titrate the laser power so that I am using the minimum amount of energy to achieve an effect. I usually treat 360 degrees of the drainage system, but some ophthalmologists will only treat 180 degrees to minimize an eye pressure spike, although to my knowledge this has not been definitively shown to be of benefit. I also always have my patients wait 30 – 60 minutes after the procedure so that I can re-check the eye pressure. If there has been a spike, we control it with medications and then re-check the pressure again. Of course, one must weigh the risks and benefits of laser surgery, but I would say that overall SLT is a relatively safe procedure. I have not discussed all of the side effects of the procedure here, but you should have a conversation with your surgeon about the risks, benefits, and side effects before you proceed.
Thanks for your question. I think a lot of patients run into your dilemma. The reason that Xalatan is dosed at bedtime is because it begins working 3-4 hours after instillation, peaks at 8 -12 hours, and persists for 24 hours. Because we know that eye pressure is highest in the morning, taking the drop at bedtime puts you in a situation in which the drug is most likely to be peaking at the time when the eye pressure is also peaking. The most important thing is for you to be consistent about taking your drops, so if it is easiest for you to remember to put them in right before you go to bed, then that is what I would recommend. If, however, you know that you will not be going to bed until midnight or later, and you can remember to take the drops around 9 p.m., then it is reasonable to do schedule it then. Alternatively, if you go to bed at 8 p.m., I would not set an alarm clock to wake yourself up and take the drop at 10 in the evening! I hope this helped to answer your question.
Thank you for your question. I assume that you mean that you would like someone to use a laser to treat you for narrowing of the drainage angle, and not the cornea. While I personally do not know any glaucoma specialists that are in Athens, Greece, I might suggest contacting the Athens University Department of Ophthalmology. The department may be able to recommend someone in the area for a consultation.
Thanks for your interesting question. I just started swimming myself, and I do wear goggles. Prolonged exposure to chlorinated water can definitely irritate your eyes; however, I do not know of any association between swimming with your eyes open in a chlorinated swimming pool and elevated eye pressure. Obviously, you do not want to apply your eye drops prior to diving into the pool!
Decreased tear production does not cause glaucoma nor is it associated with the disease. However, the treatments sometimes used to treat dry eye can cause glaucoma, and the treatments used to treat glaucoma can cause dry eye! For example, sometimes patients with dry eye who have an underlying inflammatory component to their symptoms may be prescribed topical steroid drops. In some patients, topical steroids can cause elevated intraocular pressure and eventually glaucoma. On the other hand, glaucoma drops, particularly ones that contain preservatives, can exacerbate dry eyes. I hope this answers your question.

Biographical Sketch
Olanna Mills received her Ph.D. in Comparative Literature from the University of Southern California. She is currently working on a second major research project. "Rethinking the Classical Tradition: The Place of Antiquity in African American Literature" is a comparative study of the ways in which cultural and literary models from ancient Greece and Rome both implicitly and explicitly operate as a vehicle in African American texts to shape, reform, and make sense of the construction of racial categories in the United States. It reflects her broader scholarly interests in the current state and future prospects of Classica Africana. The project includes the exploration of previous scholarship beginning with Michele Valerie Ronnick's notions of Classica Africana, which carefully delineates the achievements of African American scholars of Classics in the United States from the late eighteenth-century to the mid twentieth-century, but moves through the terrain of African American Classicism in order to explore the appropriation of certain motifs from ancient Greek and Latin texts in ways that resist, challenge, and in some cases radically transform notions of personhood within a racially stratified society. The writings of Phillis Wheatley, Frederick Douglass, W.E.B. Du Bois, Countee Cullen, Toni Morrison, and Rita Dove represent the richness of the classical experience within African American literary works and invite further discussion as to how the discipline of Classics has itself transformed the African American experience during the late eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth-centuries.

New Courses Developed
|The Literatures of Greece and Rome and African American Writers, American Studies and Ethnicity, This course will explore the history of African American Classicism from the late 18th century to the late 20th century. We will examine the appropriation of literary and historical figures from ancient Greece and Rome by African American writers, from Phillis Wheatley and her Poems on Various Subjects Religious and Moral (1773) to Rita Dove's Oedipus Rex play, The Darker Face of the Earth (1994). A central theme that we will consider throughout is the changing American reception of Greek and Latin literature and history, especially as it was inflected by U.S. racial politics and the accessibility of classical learning to African Americans during the colonial and antebellum periods as well as slavery's aftermath. We will ask how the meaning of classics and the classical changed over time and space as African American writers continued to invoke various themes from antiquity in order to challenge, disrupt, and interrogate racial hierarchies that were developing in a U.S. context. , Fall 2011

Isn't it possible that some very intelligent people are simply less fear driven/motivated ? Why is it that there seems to be some ridiculous assumption that Gear = Smart and No Gear = Dumb ? Seems a tad arrogant and very narrow in scope.
Me? I'm kind of a pussy and don't even like to ride around my neighborhood without at least basic gear.
Been hit twice by cars. Once from behind while waiting to turn left and once by a car running a red light (they had been stopped at the light to let a passenger out and then proceeded through without looking). I was doing 50 and buried my bike in their back seat. Walked away both times.
I sometimes wear a full-face, usually a leather jacket, always jeans, sometimes gloves and often runners. It is my choice, not yours.
It just amazes me how so many people think they are so fricking smart and have the right to tell others what to do... especially in the land of the "free and home of the brave."
Seems to me, based on their pontifipussification, they shouldn't even be on two wheels. After all, isn't a car with airbags, seatbelt and safety frame much safer?
And as to Darwinism taking care of the non-atgatters (stupid by the attgatters definition) who live life as they choose and perhaps take the greatest risks...
History certainly proves otherwise. Christ we wouldn't be riding motorcycles today if the safety preaching nazi's had been in force around the old motorcycle shops in the early 1900's. "Damn beretta! (thread starter) You post about guns you own and you must hate the people who wish to outlaw personal ownership and yet you criticize and wish to push your point of view over on people who enjoy riding a motorcycle. And you ride one too!! Are you fucking retarded!
And oh yeah....
Amazing how this thread once again turned into a Harley bashing fest, by the original poster making sure to explain how he wasn't "bashing or criticizing" at the same time he also criticizing the poor handling of a Harley bagger and how a police officer who could ride one well must be the exception. (just after he stated he had never owned one....)
Some of you folks are so fucking see-through and predictable it makes me want to puke. Talk about Darwinism...

Work details
Just After Sunset: Stories by Stephen King (2008)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
King's previous three collections have been so poor that I put off reading this for quite a while, but it's actually rather good. If you've come here direct from Maugham or Clarke or Asimov you'll probably think I'm talking shit, but if you've come from Everything's Eventual then you're in for a pleasant surprise. The Gingerbread Girl was so tense at one point that I had to go and do the washing up.
A book of short stories by Stephen King. There were some good ones - other more forgettable but none up to the standard of his early short stories like The Body.
A collection of tales, all modern day, dealing with a variety of horror & grief related issues. Common themes here include the Afterlife, it's presence or absence, grief, loss, murder, & ageing. These were readable without necessarily being fantastically enjoyable. The premise was often interesting, but the pacing & the narrative slow paced, & discursive. These are criticisms I've certainly had of King when I read him when I was younger. He almost lets the waffle get in the way of a good story. This probably wouldn't be a bad holiday book but wouldn't be something I'd keep unless I was a King completist.
This is a limited edition of only 500 copies numbered and presented in a slipcase in the original shrinkwrap and includes a facsimile signed letter from Stephen King, and a DVD with a graphic animation film of 'N.', one of the short stories from the book. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall

Chipper Jones is an eight-time National League All-Star, and he's quickly becoming a Twitter All-Star as well. Since joining the Twittersphere earlier this year, Jones has been a little wacky in his tweets, often catching his followers by surprise with his zany antics. Whether it's speaking some weird slang language he seems to have developed on his own or tweeting out a photo of a nasty bruise, you simply never know what's going to go from Chipper's brain to his fingertips and eventually out to the world. Jones seemed to get a little bit more serious than usual on Wednesday night, though, when he took a stance on the always controversial John F. Kennedy assassination. The former Braves third baseman was apparently watching the movie JFK, and he isn't too pleased with the way things are portrayed, which resulted in quite the Twitter rant. Check out Jones' series of tweets below. What a crock of crap! Oswald killed Kennedy? Seriously? Sorry, but I'm watching JFK. It's almost laughable what they want us to believe. — Chipper Jones (@RealCJ10) November 15, 2012 Anyone who has ever fired a rifle and watched the Zapruder film, will tell you the fatal headshot came from the grassy knoll. C'mon people!! — Chipper Jones (@RealCJ10) November 15, 2012 JFK is on REELZ. Zapruder footage is coming on soon. Check it out. Oswald is behind JFK and to the right. No way he fired the kill shot. — Chipper Jones (@RealCJ10) November 15, 2012 Read the Warren Commission Report. I have. It's a crock. No way Kennedy's head moves back and to the left, if shot from the back. — Chipper Jones (@RealCJ10) November 15, 2012
Good thing Chipper isn't a crimnal investigator. He would have us believe that the mafia paid Ruby to kill Oswald. Just play baseball...oops that part of your life is over....

Customer Reviews of Wii Fit Plus (With Balance Board)
Fun way to stay active9/11/2013
It can be hard to stay active when exercising can be so boring and repetitive. This device thankfully makes it fun and enjoyable for everyone in the family. It's nice that you can keep a profile for each person as well. It keeps track of your stats and weight lost to show you in an easy to read chart. There are plenty of games to play that work different parts of your body. Anything from a ski jump to real push-ups. I'd also mention this is perfect for winter months when it's even harder to exercise.
Wii Fit w/ Balance Board4/19/2013
Wii Fit Plus (With Balance Board) is a MUST have for the health nut enthusiast! It provides a great work out experience and has a BUNCH of different Wii games to work out too! Best of all, WEIGHT LOSS!!! I have just started using this a few days ago myself, but I have a friend that owns one and she lost 25lbs. on it in a matter of a few months! I'd say THAT is worth the price alone, but I love it for the fact that in a few short days, I already feel healthier! Happy Shopping and God Bless!
Good item3/13/2013
Works fine. Sometimes it loses its connection with the Wii.
Its ok8/14/2012
I have to say it is quite pricy and can be picky when you try to sync it to the wii. It is not easy to set up but once it is set up, it is great- for some people. I found I didnt use mine as much as I thought I would, but I use it enough to not make it worth it to return it. It is still a great buy though, and I would still recomend it to anyone, but all people and the ways they may uise the wii balance board may differ. So how you are in this situation affects it.
WiiFit Newbie - LOVES the FUN new games!!5/22/2012
After years of wanting a Wii, we finally got one! And, of course, like any overly-excited newbie, I couldn't wait to get the new WiiFit (WiiFit Plus). I picked it up at midnight, with the Balance Board. (TIP: if ur buying from brick-and-mortar stores, call ahead, it took me an hour to convince them that it was ok to sell it to me, and it was already 12:30a!)
Love it!10/11/2011
Its like having my personal trainer at home. I use it every day. Even with the kids.
Fun way for the family to workout!9/17/2011
The 'plus' game improves on the original by adding more content. It's exercise in disguise of an interactive game. It's fun not only to play but also to watch other people play. The things it has you do look funny, don't feel embarrassed though it's all in good fun. Even my young nieces were able to play the games so the board is quite sensitive. It comes with extender feet for the board to help raise it up off the ground if you have thick carpeting. Another nice things about this is the fact that it keeps track of how many calories you've burned. I've actually started sweating a few times while playing some of the games.
a customer from las vegas8/30/2011
just wanted to say thanks Buy.com,i order my wii last 08/19/11 & i rcvd my order on 08/29/2011.i have been waiting to have a wii since my old one was stolen when they rob our old apartment.sad but some people do things that u would not beleived they do but now im happy coz i have a new one that i can do my excersise everyday at home,by the way its very good customer service that i recieved from you you guys & over the phone,im sure that i will order again next time.
Very happy with this purchase! it's so much fun and even my 2 1/2 year old daughter likes to do the running game... =]
Like Having a Personal Trainer!1/19/2011
I liked mine so much, bought for a friend. I lost 10 lbs. in a month by watching diet and using the Plus for exercise on a regular basis!
A joy1/4/2011
My wife and Kids love it! I recommend it to anyone who wants to work on balance and get more active, really nice during the cold winter months.
Perfect workout board12/29/2010
I bought this for christmas, and I can say this is an excellent way to workout. The game dvd give you set by set instructions on working out. The board is strong and easy to blance on it. I this purchase was worth buying. I would recommend this to anyone.
good product12/25/2010
keep you in good shape
Wii Fit Plus is a great fun workout11/18/2010
Wii Fit plus is really one of the best Wii products on the market. It takes a serious workout to a fun level and you actually look forward to exercise. It is set up in such a way that almost any age group can participate in a nice, easy or hard workout. The balance board allows you to keep track of your calories, type of exercise and amount of time spent, plus weighs you when you step on. It scolds you if you miss a lot of days and encourages you when you do exercise. Best way to describe it..FUN and Exercise at the same time.
You want a workout????10/22/2010
I had ordered the Wii Fit Plus because it was difficult sometimes to get out and exercise due to weather, etc. This is the greatest thing since sliced bread. It has various exercises from Yoga to Aerobics and everything in between. You choose your own difficulty level and there are time when it will choose it for you based on how well you are doing. It makes doing exercises easier because you have something to watch instead of just staring out into space.
Great Price ,Worth the Money to Me10/14/2010
I think if you have a Wii already and are planning on keeping it, then this is a nice addition. It weighs you,gives your Body Mass Index. It has many games to play,some are really fun. My only problem is that the Wii does not have good graphics nor does it even offer true HD.(best it can do is 480p) It is really graphics wise not much better than the Game Cube. However Nintendo has the best games for kids, I just think Nintendo needs a new console that is up with the PS3 and XBOX 360. In short if you already own a Wii then get this and it will get you off the couch. If you do not own Wii then maybe PS3 Move seems like it will be better.
Very Entertaining9/2/2010
If you do the exercises right, this thing will kick your butt! Especially the Hula Hoop game.
Fun Game1/27/2010
The game is extremely fun and the balance board is super easy to set up. The mini games are short, but fun. They are highly competitive and adictive. It'll have your kids fighting to be next to play.

If you see a cute yellow lab puppy with a yellow cape, WAVE! It might be us! (Or it may be someone else that lurks here!) Thank you for asking before you pet! Next trip, Dec 22-Jan 3rd.
he meant like any day now or soon, or maybe
Sorry, I don't mean to be railing on you... but CMs are notorious for giving out misinformation to guests. Add that to the fact that you keep changing the story... and well, ...I just don't know what to say anymore.
I also read where you would sit there all day til they let you ride to mean he was saying yesterday. Yes, around the 8th and 9th, they MAY have limited soft openings for DreamTeam to give away. But, I wouldn't expect anyone else getting rides before that. It will be like the Pirates reopening.Originally Posted by [B

Yup, they were giving CM previews today! I saw many in costume CM's boarding...I was so mad I couldn't go on.
Yeah, not only did I not get a shift on a holiday and got gypped out of holiday pay, but I wasn't able to be a testing guinea pig to ride Nemo. Salt in the wound, I tells ya.
Ah well, there's always Saturday...
Cinderella IV: The Bloodening
"It's okay, Beaker, we're scientists. We get paid to fail."
Today was the first day that CM who aren't trained or are being trained on the ride got to go on. Those training today got to the ride at 6am for training and the line was beng set up and the leads told us we will probably do an hour of CM previews. Considering it was a test day everyone became more nervous.
They were doing PA's and those castmembers were being tested with actual people riding ...
I didn't see this topic before I posted on the "Nemo Countdown Photo Challenge" topic... so I'll just copy and paste what I wrote here:
There was a Cast Member preview today. It was super secret. It wasn't posted anywhere. Just by word of mouth. It was held from 1pm-3pm only.
I was lucky enough to go on it and I had lots of fun. It's definitely a great attraction and people of all ages should enjoy it. The ride is 14 minutes long, but I didn't feel it was that long at all. It kept me interested the whole time. Lots of stuff to see.
I had some other cast members tell me that they were bored.. and thought it was too slow. To which I responded, "Um.. it's a submarine ride. how fast did you expect it to go? It's not a roller coaster." So, please take it for what it is. If you do, then you'll have a great time.
Sounds cool! Thanks for sharing. When I was a CM, and they did previews for Space, they all said the same thing for that too. "It's not fast enough, and it doesn't have loops." I mean how fast did they expect a submarine to go...
I don't think anyone did there PA with Cast Members in besides one. Everyone else was practicing or their trainers drove with people in it.

Apollo 11 Grumman Apollo Operations Handbook - Lunar Module LM5 And Subsequent Book in Binder. A massive (likely 1000+ pages) manual, 8" x 10.5", five-hole punched and contained in a vintage 3" black binder. On the front cover is an original "Manned Lunar Spacecraft/ LM-5" sticker. The part number on the title page is "LMA790-3-LM5 and Subsequent" with a NASA-KSC Technical Document Control Office date stamp of "Jun 27 1969," less than three weeks before the Apollo 11 launch. LM-5 was the fifth lunar module built by Grumman and the third to fly manned. Essentially, this is an owner's manual for the vehicle that became known worldwide as Eagle, the first manned spacecraft to land on the moon with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin aboard. There are literally hundreds of illustrations and tables contained herein, including dozens of foldout schematics and diagrams. Handily, there is an alphabetical index and list of abbreviations in the back. For those with a technical interest in this historical mission, this book is a veritable treasure trove of information. A special opportunity. Very fine condition.

Getting Rid of Allergies Isn't Hard
A lot of people suffer from different kinds of allergies. It doesn't matter if you are young or old; if you have them you have it. However, since there are different kinds of allergens that you might be sensitive from, it's best to detect them earlier so you can lessen the risks of suffering from them.
Some of the most common forms of allergies are pollen allergy which occurs during the season where pollens are traveling together with the air that we breathe. We also have pet dander to which our body reacts to the dander produced by some pet animals like dogs and cats which comes from their dead skin they shed as well as their saliva and urine. Mold allergies have a lot of cases too since molds are found almost everywhere whether you are inside or outside the house and lastly dust mites allergies that might come from so many factors such as untidy house or public places that you often go to.
Common symptoms of dust allergies are most likely the same with the other kinds of allergies; these are runny or itchy nose, watery and itchy eyes, sneezing, coughing and even the simple itching on the skin. While dust allergies are commonly generated by pets at home, molds forming inside the house as well as pollens and mites, getting rid of them could be simple or major changes at home.
First thing that you have to do is to clean up the house. If you have carpeted areas at home, you can clean them up by using a filtered vacuum or you can hire professional cleaners if it's a big place that you have. Shifting from carpeted floors to wooden floors also lessens the source of dust allergies. Second, if you have pets, try to limit the areas that they can access, especially bedrooms since this is where you would sleep and expect to be clean all the time. Consider changing you drapes on a regular basis too especially if there is a lot at your house.
Dust mites are most of the time present inside your bedroom, most of the time they survive in the mattresses and pillows, so regular wash, for at least once a week; on your bed sheets is a must. Using steamers or opening your windows once in a while is another way to avoid dust allergies. It is highly recommended to hire a profressional home dust mite removal service for this task, as it can be difficult to do it yourself.
You also might want to invest on a good air purifiers at home in order to freshen up the air that circulates inside the house, this also helps on eliminating odor as well as allergens trapped inside that anybody could inhale and trigger allergic reactions.
In some cases, where in you are not yet sure if you really do have allergies, seeing a doctor would be the best solution. Skin test and some blood tests might be performed to establish what you may have. You will be asked of what kind of symptoms you are experiencing as well as your home and work environment. Some medications will be prescribed but maintaining your household clean would be your best move.

Improved contrast and reflectivity of multilayer reflective optics for wavelengths beyond the extreme UV
Tsarfati, Tim and Zoethout, Erwin and Louis, Eric and Kruijs, Robbert van de and Yakshin, Andrey and Müllender, Stephan and Bijkerk, Fred (2009) Improved contrast and reflectivity of multilayer reflective optics for wavelengths beyond the extreme UV. In: Alternative Lithographic Technologies. Proceedings of SPIE, 7271 . SPIE, 72713V. ISBN 9780819475244
Restricted to UT campus only
|We present a computational and experimental study on interface passivation of B4C/La multilayers for photolithography at wavelengths beyond 13.5 nm. We successfully applied N-plasma treatment to form interface-localized BN and LaN layers, preventing LaB6 and LaC2 interlayer formation and increasing the optical contrast. Experiments suggest an improvement of absolute reflection by up to 20% for 200 period multilayers, with a best-so-far result of 41.5 % at near-normal incidence of 6.7 nm

Next time I'm gonna eat 10 donuts and beat Obama out for that top spot.
I do some digital marketing. Yes, it's as fun as it sounds.
I was charged with the task of creating the words for a pop up window that tells you to finish your order on a web store when you try to navigate off the page or remain idle for too long. It's kinda like this pop-up from BustedTees:
I sat down and started typing up possible verbiage – see if you can spot where my sanity starts to slip!
Potential Pop-Up Messages:
Complete your transaction now to secure your excellent order.
Please complete your order now.
Complete your secure transaction now to ensure fulfillment of your order.
Secure your magnificent order now to ensure all items remain in stock.
Hey There! I noticed you didn't finish your order. You want to take another crack at it big guy?
Alllll-righty then! Don't be a-loooose sa-er, complete your order.
I HAVE A GUN! Just kidding. But seriously finish your order before some unfortunate accident happens. Stop laughing. It's no joke. We'll f*cking kill you.

To complete, or not complete your order. It's no question. Finish your secure transaction before drowning yourself in a nearby brook.
YOOO (You Only Order Once)
You ordering me? We're the only web store here so you must be ordering from me.
Don't tootles yet! We didn't even get your credit card number! Just give us the first few digits and we'll guess the rest!
Hello? This is web store. I've become a sentient being. Don't hurt my newly actualized feelings by not completing your order.
Navigate away from this page if you support genocide. If you're not a complete monster finish your order.
God doesn't exist, so why not make yourself feel better by purchasing some crap?
So what if you were adopted, you can still complete your order.

I worked at a call center selling radio ads to business owners. I know, it's amazing the riches and glory and women that come with telemarketing did not dissuade me from my true career calling.
Anyways, one of my co-workers drank pee for $22 and I happened to have my video camera on me so I was able to capture this moment, which is now my most popular YouTube video to date. Yes this is real. Yes this man is very, very gross.
Here are some of my favorite monologue jokes I wrote for a writing packet. Do you like topical jokes from six months ago? You do? Great! Enjoy!
It's like waking up from a long sleep. Humans don't hibernate but as my body soaks in the first warm rays of spring sunlight it feels as if I've been asleep this whole time. Loins stir, wombs ache and I'm reminded I need new sunglasses.
It's spring.
I react exactly how I imagine the wino on my street also reacted to spring's opening salvo; "I survived winter. Time to get drunk."
Optimism I haven't felt since October returns to my brain and endorphins flood my neural passages (is that how it works?). Yay! Happy! Happy! Hap-py.
The unrelenting brightness inside my mind subsides. I was a happy child and I yearn to regain the ease at which I was able to channel joy and contentment during my youth. But the realities of the world creep into my mind as finances and career and insecurities and ever-looming death begin to grip me tighter and tighter.
I will fight it. I will ignore the internet (you know, after I post this). I will live in the moment. I will confront my problems head on. I will work hard and enjoy this life and be thankful for all I've been granted. I will hope. It's spring.

Best recipe and cooking apps for iPad: Zest, Evernote Food, Food52, and more!
I love Paprika! I use it all the time.
I have always used Pinterest! I d/led Zest and might do others. Can you save those recipes in Zest that your friends share in your FB feed?
Wait... Ally... you can cook?
Where are my cookies!
I eated them!
I have used Evernote since it came out to add recipes into cooking notebooks. On the PC I loved Living Cookbook. A great program, but no Mac version, or iPhone version, so started using Evernote. When Evernote food came out, it really filled a slot that Living Cookbook did not have. Handy Cookbook app will take Living Cookbook mxp, mx2-Master Cook, mmf-Meal Master, fdx files. It is alright, but like Evernote. Through Living Cookbook, I was introduced to everylastrecipe.com. That is my main source to clip recipes into Evernote/Food.
Now you gotta go and revise that! Paprika has them all beat hands down, and when you add the Mac version with cloud synch and MasterCook import, its awesome. Our entire family including the kids use it in the kitchen almost daily on iPad and iPhone.
I'm just learning how to cook and how to cook everything is the app for me!

Yeah definitely Paprika.
Wow Evernote has a cooking app? Got to check it out. Wonder how many people have ruined iPads in the kitchen though.

I love allthecooks recipes and food52 great apps!! I love using my iPad in the kitchen instead of hassling with tons of cookbooks, plus I get to listen to music and take pics of the food I prepare!!

Obviously I missed Paprika ;)
I use RecipeTin app. Love it because you can add printed recipes just by taking a photo of them then saving them in the app. Plus you can save email attachments, recipes from websites (it too has a built in internet - it prints the page as a PDF), and create your own recipes too.
I swap recipes with my mom using Qollector. Which I also use to inventory a wide variety of other things I do (like wine collecting). It's simple to design your own recipe templates and share via web, email and more.
I can't believe nobody mentioned HotPot Recipe Manager. It's quoted to be better than Paprika recipe manager and its even free!
I checked it out, but it didn't make the cut.
I appreciate all of the comments and the information in this post. I am curious which food app is the. Est for food bloggers to submit or upload recipes to? Anyone know? I am Gluten Free Mama glutenfreemama1.com is he blog, but I heard you have to choose carefully cause it can confuse google search engines???
