Cute Backcountry short sleeve T-shirt
The combination of light gray and light blue is great. The material is super soft. It is maybe not the one for really hot days as it may not be super fresh. The fit is true to size, it does not stink and colors and shape keep the same after multiple washings.
So cute.
It's a cute shirt without being a tshirt, but still sporty. The only con is that it's small, pretty tight. I'm a pretty solid small (I'd say not a small-medium), but this shirt I would love to see in a medium. It washes well too. I don't dry anything, I put it on a clothes line. It is still snug. Other than ordering bigger next time, I would definitely recommend this!
Sold on Cocona!
Ahhh I got my shirt 3 days ago and I have rarely taken it off since. The cocona material is super wicking, so even when I am a bit damp in the pits I feel dry. I am usually a small and the small fits me perfectly. The only reason it doesn't get a 5 from me is the neck hole is a little tight.
What is the weight for a size large? Someone...
What is the weight for a size large?
Someone in the review said they would not recommend it for a multi day hike? Why not?
My girl loves these things
According to her, they are soft and true to size. She says they are perfect for her to work out in. What ever makes her happy, makes me happy too!
shirt on the left
nice shirt
I like the design, the shape and the performance of this shirt. I have two of them already, the blue and the red (would have bought the coffee color, but my size was not available anymore). I am 170cm and 63kg. I am broad-shouldered and don't like wearing shirts as tight as most women apparently do, therefore I usually go for men'r shirts. But I like short sleeves and not all too long shirts, just like this shirt. Putting all that together, makes this shirt in size L perfect for me. Would probably buy a third one in the third color if they had my size.
pretty cool
pretty much does what it says. good price and style.
Review Title
This is a great shirt. Looks great, does not stink, washes great. Fits true to size. I'm getting another. At this price you have to get one (or two). I wish they would make a longsleeve 1/4 zip T-neck like this
Review Title
This shirt felt great and looked great. It fit really well and was accurate to the sizing chart. the best part is that it's very affordable too!
Great shirt!
I love this shirt! As you can tell from the other reviewers, there's not much to dislike about it. It really is a do-anything shirt. It feels great on and the colors are nice. I bought these (I got three of them) near the end of summer and I could tell right away that I was going to be living in them next summer.
Better than TNF.
This is my favorite hiking shirt. I have the chai/grass one and the color is a really pretty lime. It fits much better than any of my TNF shirts and works really well. It's cute, functional, and has a flattering fit - and it's affordable.
Can I exchange it if I need to? I'm not...
Can I exchange it if I need to? I'm not sure what will fit better. I'm pretty active and I'm 5'1. I'm thinking a small will fit but I'm not sure.
Absolutely. If you get the small in and it's too small, you can order a medium immediately and send the small back. When backcountry receives your small they will credit your account.
If you do end up needing to make a return you might look into clicking the "chat" button that is at the top right of the page and one of the employees can hook you up with a return number, and get your new size ordered immediately. Backcountry has the best customer service around.
Nice for running
I am 5' 3" 135 and ordered the medium. Fit is good. I wear it running. Is nice and cool for the hotter summer days.
Nice shirt. Runs small.
The goat on the sleeve is reflective-way cool! I ordered a small. It's too small. But still looks good. Order a size bigger. That's my advice.
Nice shirt, I'd recommend it.
I bought this shirt in a medium and a large because I was unsure which would fit better. The medium was just right. The material is comfortable and light weight- great for biking/hiking/camping etc.
When I first put it on the neck seemed a little tight in front, but I got used to it quickly & don't notice it anymore. It wouldn't deter me from buying another.
Comfortable Shirt for Hiking
Bought this shirt for my wife and she loves it. The material is nice and wicks just like any poly. The shirt looks sharp when she has it on, but the sizing seems to be a little off. Probably should order a size up. She is a tried and true size medium and it just doesn't quite fit. It is a little too short and fairly tight on her. The quality of the shirt is great; just missed the sizing.
Decent shirt for a quick workout
This is a decent shirt if you are looking for a quick-wicking polyester shirt at a good price (when on sale). I do not really buy into the 'odor-negating' properies, as it seems to perform like a normal poly shirt. It works if you are going for a run around your neighborhood or a workout at the gym. I would not recommend it for a multi-day backpacking/outdoor trip.
Great shirt
I originally bought two for my daughter and ended up buying her one more. They are great shirts. They fit really well. She is an average size of 5'7" and usually wears a medium or large. The large fit her perfectly. The nice part is it is long enough to not expose her stomach while exercising.
Kristen DelMastro, ☃bcs_badge_alumni_label☃
great for anything!
I just got this shirt in Radish/Cirrus and I really like it. I'm taller and shirts are often too short for me, so I went with a M even though I usually wear a S. (I've actually found that even as a S in most shirts/jackets, I am definitely a M in Backcountry.com shirts/jackets.)The Medium fits perfect. It's not too tight, not too loose and it's the perfect length. The back is a little longer which is always nice when you don't want to give your belay partner a show while rapping off a climb! I've used it biking and climbing and just hanging out around the house.

Noetherian hereditary abelian categories satisfying Serre duality
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In this paper we classify -finite noetherian hereditary abelian categories over an algebraically closed field satisfying Serre duality in the sense of Bondal and Kapranov. As a consequence we obtain a classification of saturated noetherian hereditary abelian categories.
As a side result we show that when our hereditary abelian categories have no non-zero projectives or injectives, then the Serre duality property is equivalent to the existence of almost split sequences.

We had an ultrasound at 33 weeks and baby A was 3lb 9oz and B was 4lb 7oz. The dr. was concerned that A was so far behind B. We are to go back in two weeks and if the difference has not gotten better they will preform a c-section. I know the babies will be fine if delivered at 35 weeks, I just worry about them not going home from the hospital with us. This is our second set of twins and I carried the first set to 36 weeks and they were both 5.5 lbs. Just curious if anyone else is or has been in this situation. I can not help but worry!!
Twin weight difference
My boys were born at 36 weeks . I had a ultra sound at 35 weeks and they guessedmated that A was 6lbs 7oz and B 5lbs 14oz . They were born via C-section a week later and ended up A at 4lbs 4oz and B 5lbs 14oz . So the whole ultrasound guessing thing isnt always right.
My boys came out 100% healthly and we all left the hospital 36 hours after they were born. Even now 7 weeks on there are clear weight differences in my boys . A (Benjamin) is 7lbs 6oz and B(Dylan) 10lbs But both are still very healthy and happy.
Yeah same here!
We went to the Specialist this Tuesday and Baby A is 8 days AHEAD of my pregnancy and Baby B is 7 days behind (so they are measuring about 2 weeks a part weight wise). They are almost a pound a part according to the U/S. The Dr. didn't seem worried though. I am only 23 weeks...so maybe that's why he wasn't concerned...but we shall see....and they are identical!
First time mommy to Identical twin girls! EDD: July 2, 2009
they finally have names: Nia and Naomi
I went in for my 36 week ultrasound at 36 weeks 4 days and we discovered that day that Baby A was growing along while B had not shown any growth since my previous scan. They were measuring about a pound apart. The doctor wasn't that concerned but said we needed to schedule my c-section that week. He went out to call the hospital and book the OR and came back in and said that today was the only day they had available. They were born via c-section 2 hours later. A was 6 lbs 8 oz and B was 4 lbs 9 oz. Good luck with whatever happens. Mine were born on a Monday evening and came home on Friday afternoon.
Mom of 4
I had an u/s done last Thursday at 33w5d and Baby A (girl) measured about 5 lbs and Baby B (boy) measured about 6.5 lbs. I'm having a level 2 u/s done tomorrow to check to see if those measurements are accurate and to see how everything is going. Baby B has measured bigger for the last 2 months at least and his stomach is actually pretty far ahead of his head and leg measurements.
I'm a little anxious to see what happens tomorrow, but not too worried. All of my children have been good sized at birth. This is actually my second set also. My first set (fraternal girls) were born at 37w2d weighing 7 lb 1 oz and 7 lb 11 oz. My YDD was born at 36w1d weighing 8 lb 3 oz! I expected these 2 to be on the larger side obviously!
GL and KUP!

My OB always looked for less than a 20% discrepancy in weight. My babies always measured close in size during the u/s when they were actually born my son was 8 lbs 11 oz and my daughter was 7 lbs 6 oz.
Jennifer, mom to 4 great kids and twins, Sam and Livy born January 14, 2009 at 37 weeks!
Just a little update. I had my level 2 u/s yesterday and got some interesting news. Keeping in mind that u/s measurements are not always totally accurate and that it's harder to get good measurements late in pregnancy (especially with twins!), here's my news.
Baby A was estimated to weigh 5 lb 12 oz (up 12 oz from last week). She is measuring slightly ahead based on the date that the level 2 place used. Baby B was estimated to weigh 7 lb 2 oz (which is up about 8 oz from last week). The doctor at that office said that since Baby A (the girl) is measuring pretty much on target, he is not worried that there is such a large difference between the two. He suggested another growth scan at his office in two weeks to check on it again.
My OB has been using 5/9 as my due date instead of 5/18 like I think it should be due to my longer cycles. The u/s place yesterday used 5/17 and either way, both babies were measuring larger than their dates. The doctor did say that he think that I should be delivered in the next 3 weeks due to the size even though I am having my 3rd c-section. I can't wait to see what happens!
Lisa - mommy to M & C 1/2/02 fraternal twin girls, A 6/13/07, and�R &�E 4/5/09 fraternal b/g twins, and S 5/26/10
Somewhere around 20 weeks it was noted that my twins were measuring very far apart (about four weeks) and IUGR was diagnosed in twin A. She stayed that far behind the duration of the pregnancy. At 32 weeks she only scored 6 of 10 on the biophysical profile and monitoring her didn't go so well either, so an emergency c-section was performed (it was at 32 weeks, 4 days on Feb. 17 of this year).
Tiny Alexis was born weighing 2 lbs. 10 oz. and twin B Benjamin weighed a hefty 4 lbs. 15 oz. I'm so grateful to our perinatologist for getting me this far in the pregnancy because one of the neonatologists in the NICU believed I had a 50/50 chance of losing them both during the pregnancy.
Benjamin came home on March 7 weighing 5 lbs. 0 oz. and Alexis followed on March 14 weighing 3 lbs. 3 oz. It's so great to have them both home!
Twins DD (2 lbs. 10 oz., severe IUGR) & DS (4 lbs. 15 oz.) 2/09 - at 32 weeks (after 17 weeks of bed rest)
there were time my girls weights were about a pound and half apart and then times were there were barely ounces apart remember its just a guess... my girls were born at 37 weeks and were 4.7 and 5.6 i dont think you should worry sounds like there growing fine... at 32 weeks my girls were only about 3lbs each
* Stephanie *
full time Mama to Nicolas and Twins Ella & Kira
My first set were 5.9 and 6.12 when the Dr induced me at 36 weeks he did so because they were both over 5.8 oz. They were born vaginally and I am hoping my second set will be the same.

I am just terrified of a csection even though people I know much prefer them. I dont want to sound like something is wrong with them lol I am just a scaredy cat.... My last single baby was 10.5 and I had her natural becuase I was more afraid of the epidural than the pain

It took a little over half an hour to set up. Really pretty easy. Its not as big as I expected, this is a good thing. Its also quieter than I expected, also a good thing. I've used it every day for a little over a week and everything has been fine. I don't think this would be a good machine for a marathon runner but its exactly what I wanted. Its stable, easy to operate and seems to be reliable. If it continues to preform the way it has so far this is going to be a winner.
Bought this treadmill after I realized I was paying $480 a year for the gym only to be running on a treadmill. From the suggestion of a friend I purchased this Welso. A little about myself..Female 25-30...I work out about 3-4 times a week and that's what I had intended to do with this machine. Overall I love this product. Assembly is pretty easy but a man's help is neccessary or two strong women. I say this becuase you have to attach the top part to the base so someone has to hold it at an angle where you can do so....Tightening the screws would have been hard if I did not have my fiance as well. Only because it's a treadmill so you want to make sure everything is tight.. The system itself works fine. The sounds is not noisey to me...It's equivalent to what you hear when you are at the gym on the treadmill. You have 6 programs to choose from which are for fat burn and cardio. Or you can do the manual. It has 2 manual inclines..I typically leave mine at the highest level since it is ..well manual ..lol But all in all this is a great buy for a great price..I will most likely opt for the extended warranty to protect my small yet important investment.... As far as getting it home if you have a mid size car it will fit in your trunk IF you take it out of the box...This machine is not piece and parts heavy so literally when you take it out the box you have about 6 pieces to shove in your trunk...I did site to store to save on shipping which is why we picked it up... But overall this is a great buy..If you are an avid runner 5-7 days ...9 mph hour runner I would suggest something different. But if you are a gal like me that just wants to tone up in the comfort of your home this is the machine for you!!! Oh ps...It folds up too which is awesome...
We had a treadmill that was over ten years old, was time for a new one.
It took us about 20 min to get it put together, was not a lot to do. I was not able to walk on our old treadmill but this one is a breeze to walk on for me( I have had a total knee replacement) and my husband says its like going from a clunker to a Cadillac. I am 71 and he is 73 and we really are so pleased with how good this treadmill is. I use it every day and he uses it every day or two. If you want a good product for a good price then this is it.
I have only used this for a week, but so far this is a great product. Easy set up, easy to use. I am 230lbs and have had NO problems with its sturdyness. Will update in a few months.
Bought this treadmill 3 weeks ago and it exceeded my expectations. The programmed weight loss exercises are a wonderful addition to the machine. I have read reviews that said this machine was difficult to assemble. I am a smaller woman and I put it together, by myself in about 45 minutes with no struggling at all. The treadmill is solid to work out on and runs very quietly. I recommend this treadmill and give it 5 stars all around!!
I actually purchased this product at a local Wal-Mart where I live. I brought it home and it took me and my mother about 45 minutes to put it together, and that's only because it took us a little longer to get some of the srews tightened well. But the only things you are attaching to the treadmill are the base, console, and arms, evrything else is already assembled. This treadmill exceeds my expectations! It is much sturdier that I thought it would be and me weighing 230 lbs I needed sturdy:) I only used it a couple of times since putting it up last week, but it is not noisy, it shifts smoothly into higher or lower speeds. I look forward to getting my sexy back using this treadmill! If you are consdering this purchase I highly recommend it! I will report back in a few weeks with my progress.
Putting it together wasn't exactly a joy, but it isn't as bad as some folks are making it sound - my bf and I managed in under an hour. Anyway, the product itself is great for the price... I've had it for nearly 2 week now and use it daily (sometimes twice). It seems pretty sturdy and performs well at all available speeds (although I can't keep up with it past 8mph bf did test it at speeds above this and said it did fine)… I'm in my 30s and despite being a normal weight am pretty out of shape with bad lungs (ex-smoker), so I personally like to have it on 5-6 mph with short bursts of about a minute at 7mph (or rest periods at 4 mph when needed) – switching back and forth between all these different speeds is super easy and great for us beginners who need to regulate our unconditioned heart rates, lol. On day 1, I could only do it on 5 mph for a little over two minutes (I told you I was out of shape) – anyway, I just got done with a 15 minute workout including nearly 6 minutes at 5 mph continuous. My point is that you see results quickly using this thing. Although I can tragically only do a 13 minute mile currently, I know this will be changing VERY soon. I never was a fast runner, but my goal is to beat my old HS time of around 8:30 – I know this machine will get me there eventually… Anyway, it also has some preprogrammed routines if you don't want to have to switch manually (personally, I like the control but others might like for the machine to switch for you – it can do this if that interests you). It's great for walkers and/or elderly and/or obese folks who can only handle walking 2-3 mph, but it would probably be great for all but your best athletes too as the thing can take you up to the point of doing 6 minute miles with an incline. Top athletes/sprinters probably already know to avoid this machine, but it really is a great buy for the rest of us everyday people. It would probably even be great for people training for the military. I vow to run a 5K – this machine is going to get me there, and then to celebrate, I might get a fancier machine, but this one is a great way to get started especially for those of us who can't just casually plop down $800+ bucks. This treadmill isn't perfect (for example, it doesn't give you a very accurate indication of calories burned), but it is a good value for the money and will more than met the needs of typical exercisers and/or folks training for charity 5-10K/half-marathon events.
I purchased this machine yesterday after reading many reviews. I wanted something inexpensive since I haven't worked out in a while..I figured this would be good enough to get me going. I plan on working my way to running a few miles but doubt I'll ever be a marathon runner and need anything more than this! Purchase:
My husband and I were able to drag this upstairs in our home. We're both fairly small and it's pretty heavy so you probably need 2 people- unless your extremely strong! Some reviews say it will fit in a standard trunk, but I didn't see it fitting in my large Camry, so we needed a truck. Assembly:
I was a little worried about parts not being in the box as some reviews have said. The first thing I looked for was that they were all there before I went through the trouble of putting it together. Luckily, they were all there! The hardware was in a separate package and labeled with the dimensions of each screw, name of each hex wrench, and even what step of the instructions it was associated with! It took my husband and I about 40 minutes to put together. I think it could be done by one person if you had to. I was really just reading the instructions to him, but helped on maybe 2 parts (hold one piece while he screwed something in). Quality:
I believe this is worth the price. Some reviews said it's wobbly or shakes. I walked/jogged on it this morning and it doesn't move! I'm pretty sure it's because my husband tightened the screws VERY well. If you're having this problem, trying tightening everything. The base is pretty narrow, but not an issue. You're walking/running in a straight line so I don't see a need for anything wider. It's also not TOO long. I'm 5'4" and my husband is 5'10", so it's perfect for us. If you're tall with long legs, it may be too small of a base for you to stretch out, but I'm not sure! Because the base is fairly small, if you're running it can be fairly loud on impact. When my husband was jogging, I could see the board bouncing down on each step and making a "thud" noise. This shouldn't matter unless you're trying to be quiet for others in the home. We tested the noise level with the gym door closed, him in our bedroom with that door closed and he said he could barely hear it. We will probably be able to hear stomping when one is running upstairs and we're downstairs. Features:
It does keep track of calories, distance, and time elapse. It also has a spot to put your thumb and it shows heart rate. I did that twice and the first time it said 124 which I thought was accurate. The second was 51 which I don't think was accurate, but that doesn't surprise me!
The distance calculator is shown in numbers, but it also shows a little track. I'm not fond of the track because it shows 1/4 miles. So it will circle around 4 times in 1 mile. Basically if you look down at it, you don't know where you are in your mile unless you look at the distance in numbers. Again, this is not a big deal. I'm just glad it tells you how far you've gone! The picture of a mile shouldn't matter. Calories counted seemed accurate and of course the time elapse was. Overall:
I think it's great for a beginner and at the price that it is. I was definitely doing cardio as if it was any other treadmill. It could be considered small and loud on impact, but if you put it in a secluded part of the house or if you're alone it won't bother anyone. Folds up well and doesn't take up a lot of space! I would recommend it!
I bought this treadmill because my gym membership is getting ready to expire school is starting back and I work full time. I needed something that was small cheap and could meet my fitness needs. I can walk jog and run on this machine. It shows calories burned distance, time and speed goes up to 10 in speed and has 3 different weight loss programs and 3 intensity programs if you are looking for a change. I put it together myself it was fairly easy the only thing I had trouble putting on was the latch. FOr right now I dont need it because I run on this treadmill every night. It is also longer than what I thought it would be which is a good thing. I love this treadmill. Online it says 287 but in the store it was 257 with tax I paid 280 cheaper than the original price online. Excellent buy.
I can't walk on the road or a trail, because I have spinal stenosis,
so I have no balance.
But I can hold on, on this and walk, it's wonderful.
It has helped me get my blood sugar down.
I started out slow for just 3 minutes a day.
Now I'm walking 1.3 (speed) and for 10 minutes at a time,
some times 2-3 times a day.
I think it's a great product for the price. I have just recomended it to all my Atkins buds on facebook.
Love you all!!
Hope this helps!!!
I bought this treadmill to run about 30 - 35 minutes at 4mph - 6mph 5 days a week. The treadmill is durable, easy to use and just the right size. It works great and exceeded my expectations for the price.
I am training for a marathon and need something that will hold up to a hard run every other day and so far it is holding up nicely! Very quiet and durable. Stores very easily.
Owned the product for only a month and so far there's no problem. It was easy to assemble. It's a little heavy though so I would suggest having another person help out to avoid any injury. But aside from that, everything is working perfectly.I read a review saying that it's kinda hard to read the numbers on the screen, try removing this very thin layer of plastic and see if that helps. It looks like it protects the buttons and the screen but I removed it anyway and the screen is so much clearer now and I'm having no problems at all.
As I live in a house 4 miles from the nearest town and on a State Highway, I wanted to buy a treadmill because there is no place for me to walk. I read over the reviews on this treadmill. I went to the store and looked them over. I made the decision to buy this treadmill because it was significantly less money than the the other one of display. I got it into the house by myself. It took me less than an hour to put it together and I wasn't hurrying through it either. The allen wrenches are included. The only tool I needed to supply was a screwdriver. This is your basic no frills treadmill. The display indicates time walked, speed, calories burned, and distance walked. The incline is manual. No matter to me, I have no want or need for an incline. I just want to keep walking. The default incline is just fine with me. Since I don't run, I have no idea how it would work for that. It works just great for walking. It is sturdy enough and does fold up but I have yet to do so yet because i don't need to. I did not buy this treadmill with the delusions that it was a top of the line unit and would perform at levels reserved for higher priced units. I did not want to pay for a bunch of features I would never use. I didn't need i-pod hook ups, speakers, programmable work outs, etc. I just wanted to get back to walking like I used to before I moved here. Does it have shortcomings? Sure... It is a little narrow and the tread could be a little heavier in the padding area. I have had this unit for two weeks and walk for about an hour a day while watching TV.
I am pleased with my purchase and would recommend this unit to others.
Let me begin by saying that I read tons of reviews on this treadmill and many others before I made my purchase. For the price, this treadmill seemed to be as sturdy as many others that were several hundred dollars more. I kept coming across the same reviews saying it's okay for walking but not recommended for running. I decided to take a chance and go for it anyway, only being out $275 if it didn't meet my expectations. Not having a truck, we managed to fit the entire box in a PT Cruiser, which was nice. It took about 30 minutes to put together. The directions are easy to follow and the parts are labeled accordingly. Setup, however, was quite frustrating. The holes didn't seem to be drilled correctly, in that many of the screws just wouldn't screw in all the way. It's a cheaply made product, but hey, you get what you pay for. Not a major problem. I primarily use it for interval walking/running. I walk at about 3.8mph and run at 6mph. I'm used to running on the huge gym treadmills and I have to say, this one didn't feel a whole lot different. It felt sturdy although I do hear a slight creaking sound when my right foot comes down. It doesn't seem to be a problem so far. There are two major drawbacks I've noticed. The first is the belt size. I don't have a major problem with the length but I wish it were wider. The next best model Wal Mart carries has an extra two inches in width which might make a big difference for some people. The other problem I've had is that when I walk and my arms swing back and forth, I hit the backs of my hands on the side rails. This hurts! I'm about 190lbs, 5'9" and my hands seem to line up perfectly with the side handles. Beware of this if you will be using primarily for walking! Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase and glad I took a chance on this inexpensive machine. I'll update my review if any problems arise, but so far so good.
I love this treadmill it's so beautiful and everything I ever wanted. I went and bought my treadmill today at walmart and I am so very happy with my purchase. This is my second weslo treadmill, I decided to stick to what I knew best and what has helped me to accomplish many of my personal goals. I want to let you guys know that walmart has an assembly team who put my treadmill together in less then two hours and the service is free!!!. If you are hesitant to get this super amaze treadmill....don't be, you'll completely love it.
I've only had this treadmill a very short time, and I'm new to treadmills, but this is perfect for my needs. Like another reviewer I weigh about 230 pounds so I was leery about getting a treadmill with a weight limit of 250 pounds. Thankfully this has not been an issue and I feel very secure using this machine. The weight loss programs are great! Being new to treadmills I wasn't really sure where to start. I've been doing aerobic DVD's for several months now, so I'm not completely unused to working my legs, but walking a long distance at a fast pace isn't my normal routine. I work full time and the most walking I do is from the car to my cubicle! I like having something tell me what to do and set the pace for me so I can get in a groove. If I still want to keep going after the program is done I can always switch to manual mode which is what I've done. The main thing I wanted to talk about though was delivery and set-up. I'm a single female so a major concern for me was getting the treadmill home and getting it set up by myself. There is always the option to ask a friend, but I'm stubborn and don't like having to depend on other people to get my tasks done. I opted to have my treadmill delivered to my house. Reason being I have a compact sized car and I wasn't sure if I could get the box in the car, and if I did get it in the car how would I get it out and into the house? The treadmill was waiting for me on my back patio so I had to get it in myself. It was taller than me and very heavy, but I managed it. Once in the house I was able to push the box to the room I wanted very easily. Assembly was a little bit of a pain. It took anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. I got stuck on the first step which is attaching the base to the upright. I was able to start screwing in one side, but not the other. After lots of trying and trying I was tempted to call a friend to help me. I then took a break, and went back to try again. I was able to get it to work immediately upon return. After that step setup was a breeze as there are only a couple of pieces to put together. I would definitely recommend this treadmill to someone that is going to be setting this up themselves. Yes, a second person might help for the first step, but after that all they would be doing is cheer leading.
I ran three marathons in the last 35 years and heavily trained in New York city health clubs. Tread mills were a part of the preparation for the 26.3 miles. The Weslo Cadence G 5.9 Treadmill is just as good as the heavy equipment in New York. But at a fraction of the cost. The Weslo Cadence G 5.9 Treadmill is just right for incline running (there are two inclines to chose from). The most important feature for me is the quality of speeds offered. Ten speeds to chose from and large readout indicators of time, speed indicator, distance, and calorie burn. All easy to see. Especially when I have a few miles behind me and I need a clear display to gauge my running strategy. I also like the blood pressure/heart beat indicator. I just touch the red heart shaped light and there's an very legible readout. Too simple. My wife also enjoys her brisk walk every morning, noon or night.
As well as my two sisters. The quality of product, cost, and super ease of delivery has me looking at Walmart for my next big purchase.
I read all these reviews before purchasing it. The good & the bad. First off I would like to say that this IS my first treadmill so I haven't had any to compare this one to. The people who said the LCD/motherboard/control panel whatever you want to call it was broken, there's many things that factor into that. If you do not connect the cords together correctly, it will NOT WORK. If you squish the wires while screwing it in, it will NOT WORK. Probably why that has happened to a lot of people. The person who said that the base has cracked & them & their partner are not over weight, if you want a treadmill that you can use to it's full potential, you should spend a good grand. I don't suggest using any product that is considerably priced less then other products that are the same to it's fullest potential! Common sense. I weigh 200 pounds (hopefully that will change soon with this new toy) put this together by myself, I'm only 5'2. Took me an hour. If you are unsure of yourself putting it together alone do not do it! It requires strength & you need to be careful. Overall I am in love with this treadmill, fits my needs perfectly I have had ZERO problems. & again if you want to use a treadmill like this to it's fullest potential, running 10 mph for 30 minutes, go spend a decent amount of money on a more sturdy treadmill. If you look at the make & watch the video, the bridge goes up & down when you run, which is very comfortable. Anyways, great product, don't regret the buy at all, would recommend to anyone.
I bought this treadmill on January 28, 2011. It is now March 11 and I was able to walk on it twice. After two days the treadmill stopped working. Called the company (told not to return it to Walmart) and it took them two weeks to find someone to come and look at it. Yep, needed a new computer board. Said they would send a new one, then would have to make another appointment to have it installed. Well, I'm still waiting for the part to arrive and then how long will it take to get it installed? Should have bought a different brand. I am TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED.

Sharing Data Between Bounded Contexts in Domain-Driven Design
When using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) separating the concerns of a large system into bounded contexts with each context using its own data store there is often a need to share some common data. One way of doing that is to let each context publish events about changes, events that others can listen to, Julie Lerman recently explained in MSDN Magazine.
Lean Thinking Applied for Organizational Change
In lean, we co-design and continuously improve processes and tools to better serve individuals and interactions said Claudio Perrone. Lean views problems as a gap between the current situation and the standard and expectation.

Well...JJ is BACK! We had an AMAZING time at BD this year!
Friday night we ran in the Sweepstakes to run a 14.231 and place 9th out of 80 smokin fast horses, was very happy with how he worked. And oh boy was he a turd to warm-up lol! A leaping spinning bucking lizard! Every horse that went by him I could feel he just wanted to explode! But he worked very good!
Saturday he was the same wild beast trying to warm up (as I just tried to bury my head and act like I wasn't on THE crazy horse in the warm-up lol)! If that is what it takes for him to smoke a run then heck he can do it! He went in and ran a 14.056 to place 7th in the 1D.
Sunday I finally gave up on trying to warm him up lol! As he was like a popcorn fart! Well...he went in and smoked a 14.019! We placed 12th in the 1D! We also placed 5th in the 1D average! It was a TOUGH group of horses this year, lots of 9s and 0s!
Now Scrat...he had a good run Saturday, ran a 15.616 with a lot of rate. And Sunday...well he was freer between the barrels but we did mow all 3 over lol! I was giggling on the way out thinking of the vine video "We hit all 3 but I am SO proud of him"! I'm sure the gate person though I was crazy!
So overall I couldn't have asked for a better weekend! Both the boys did great! I am so pleased with JJ, now that he's feeling good and we finally have his foot figured out he is back to JJ. Worked his 1st barrel PERFECT all weekend!
Now for the video!
And for the PICTURES!

Skip the Line: WILD LIFE Sydney Entrance Ticket
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Skip the Line: WILD LIFE Sydney Entrance Ticket. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Page: 1
Visiting Wild Life Sydney gives one the opportunity to see several animals native to Australia up close and in person in a short period of time. You can be in a "walkabout" area with kangaroos and wallabies and also stand a few feet away from koalas. There are a number informative talks during the day as well. Be sure to buy your tickets online in order to save significantly on the entrance fee.
It was great with small kids
really enjoyed
Enjoyed it!
Great place to see for such a short stay in Sydney
Turned out to be school holidays while I was there! Skip the Line made my day quick and easy... Perfect for when you've just landed. And then of course, I also saved money! :0)
Entrance ticket worked great for Wildlife World and 3 other venues on the four pack we purchased. Very simple.
We had limited time in Sydney, but wanted to see some authentic Australian animals and visiting Wildlife World was perfect. We even got to get up close and personal with a koala! The kids loved it as very interactive.
A good place for the family to go. The kids will enjoy the different species of animals in this zoo.
There are many Australian species to look at and the koalas and kangaroos are the highlights here.
Recommend you get a multiple attraction pass to save money if you want to explore other attractions.
Nice place to see australien animals. Quickly crowded. Go early
The deal was great, the zoo was very nice. The best part the crocodile and the penguings feeding and the dugong. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the Platypus...it was hidden somewhere
It was nice being able to visit a zoo whilst still in the city. Highly recommend.
Fantastic; could have spent the whole day observing all the exhibits. Thanks for making the Sydney experience special for my girls and me
Andrew Y
Good Price. Did not have a line at any of the locations.
Can see a koala real close!!
What a great way to see all of the amazing creatures in Australia. They have just about every animal you can associate with Australia from the world's most poisonous snake to the Red Kangaroo. It's conveniently located on Darling Harbour so you can combine it with a trip to the Aquarium.
This tour was amazing!
It saved time in the "Q"'s
This is a good place to visit if you are only in Sydney briefly and really want to see some Australian animals. Value for money isn't great, but the exhibitions give you a good taste of Australian koalas, kangaroos, crocodiles and some other great animals.
Not really cheerful!!! Most of all the koalas weren't available to visit.

House Democrats Seek Hurricane Aid for Colleges
Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives introduced legislation Wednesday that would pour $4.6 billion into helping colleges and universities affected by the two recent hurricanes recruit and retain students and employees, with the idea that the institutions will be critical to the region's economic rehabilitation.
The sponsors of the legislation, Reps. George Miller of California and Dale Kildee of Michigan, are the top Democrats, respectively, on the House's education committee and its higher education subcommittee. Their measure would provide up to $1.6 billion to forgive up to $2,500 a year in federal loans for full-time students from low- and middle-class backgrounds at colleges affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Students at two-year institutions would be eligible for a total of up to $5,000 and those at four-year campuses could see up to $10,000 in forgiven loans.
The Democrats' legislation would also make available up to $3 billion in one-time grants to affected colleges themselves to recruit and retain students and faculty and staff members. The sponsors say the grants could be used for a range of purposes: providing need-based aid or room and board for students, say, or paying professors and staff members or developing temporary housing for them.
"Our plan will help students and colleges affected by Katrina and Rita to quickly get back to the business of learning and teaching, and will assist the Gulf Coast's plan to revitalize its economy and culture," Miller said in a news release.
Added Rep. Artur Davis, an Alabama Democrat who represents some of the affected areas: "The devastation in the Gulf Coast is so great that it will be very difficult for many of these campuses to reopen without significant assistance – particularly historically black colleges and universities, many of which have been devastated by the disasters – and we ought to help provide that assistance right away."
Not surprisingly, college officials welcomed the proposal. "Providing students and their families economic incentives to enroll in our schools sends just the right signal of hope to New Orleans," said Marvalene Hughes, president of Dillard University. "Namely, that Americans of all stripes and backgrounds are ready to come to New Orleans to study, grow and enjoy our renewed cultural life. We can and will rebuild."
College officials have been frustrated with the relative lack of money that have been or would be made available to higher education in the various hurricane-cleanup measures that have already been enacted or that Congress and the Bush administration are crafting now. While the Democrats' proposal Wednesday would go a long way toward satisfying those concerns, its prospects are uncertain, given the many competing Katrina-related demands in an already tight federal fiscal environment.

Though Shailene Woodley filmed scenes for the sequel in February (and even dyed her hair red to play the superhero's love interest, Mary Jane Watson), the 21-year-old actress' role has been cut from the film, she tells the June 18 issue of Entertainment Weekly.
"Of course I'm bummed," Woodley says. "But I am a firm believer in everything happening for a specific reason." She adds, "Based on the proposed plot, I completely understand the need for holding off on introducing [Mary Jane] until the next film."
PHOTOS: Stars in Spider-Man suits
In addition to real-life couple Garfield and Stone, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 also stars Jamie Foxx, Paul Giamatti, Sally Field, Martin Sheen, Chris Cooper, Denis Leary and Chris Zylka. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 arrives in theaters May 2, 2014. The third and fourth films in the franchise are slated for release in 2016 and 2018, respectively.
Woodley -- nominated for a Golden Globe for her work in The Descendants in 2011 -- has plenty of other films to focus on, beginning with The Spectacular Now. Costarring Miles Teller, the dramedy is slated for an Aug. 2 release. She's also filming Divergent, based on the dystopian young adult best-seller by Veronica Roth. The movie also stars Theo James, Zoe Kravitz, Kate Winslet, Maggie Q, Tony Goldwyn, Ashley Judd and Mekhi Phifer.
The actress also scored the lead role in the adaptation of another best-selling book, The Fault in Our Stars. As one of her costars, Jai Courtney, tells Entertainment Weekly, "She's going to be such a big f-cking star."

I named my oldest daughter after St. Clare of Assisi a contemporary of St. Francis and my younger daughter after the American philanthropist St. Katharine Drexel. We're considering naming a future daughter Grace after Our Lady of Grace (a title of the Virgin Mary) or after another American saint St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.

Southworth said the elephant logo on some of the signs does not replicate the copyrighted Republican symbol, and that the signs weren't printed or placed by Democratic committee members.
"It's a totally different graphic, and the signs are on the property of registered Republicans," said Southworth. "Last year, there were Democratic signs supporting (town council member and Republican) Mary Beth Hynes out around town, but we let it go and didn't complain because it was basically a petty issue."
As for the complaint about signs placed too early, Southworth said the sign in question is a billboard on Route 50, which falls outside the town code for placing lawn campaign signs.
"We've already spoken with the town attorney weeks ago, and we were told we hadn't violated any ordinances because it's a permanent billboard," said Southworth.
The Web domain "ballstongop" is a site owned by David Stern, who is the Web administrator for the Democratic Party, as well as other clients, including some Saratoga County Republican parties. Stern said he has owned the site since 2005.
"This site was established long ago, and no one took issue with it until now," said Stern, a computer consultant whose company is called A Little Help Computer Services. "If they had any objection, they could have brought it up anytime."
Stern, who has run for town positions in the past, said he supports the Democratic candidates, but besides updating their Web site, he has nothing to do with the campaign.
"I'm an independent person, and I'm allowed to own the Web name, just like I own dozens of domains," said Stern. "I think the Republicans are nervous, and I was treated badly in 2005 when I ran, so this doesn't surprise me at all."
Stern said he disengaged the Web site link the same day, he heard of the complaints after being contacted by a newspaper reporter rather than the Republican committee members.

COLLEGE STATION - Police have released photos of a pickup that was used in an armored truck robbery in the parking lot of a College Station bank in hopes that citizen tips might help lead to arrests.
Detectives say the robbery happened at around 2:15 p.m. in the parking lot of the Bank of America on University Drive Monday. They believe two men approached the armored truck with weapons and threatened the driver and a guard.
A witness rushed inside the bank and told them about the robbery in progress, and the bank was then put on lockdown.
Police say the suspects got away with cash and left in a white pickup truck that was found abandoned in the 500 block of Cooner Street in College Station.
The truck was reported stolen out of Houston and is a white pickup with A&M decals on its sides.
Police emphasize the truck is not affiliated with the university, but say hope somebody can tell them where it was and who was driving it before the robbery took place. If you know anything you're asked to call College Station Police, or you can leave an anonymous tip with Crimestoppers by calling their hotline at (979) 775-TIPS.

The elusiveness of altruism
Empirical evidence of altruism discovered by the Batson researchers will not convince sociobiologists. Their initial reaction is apt to be that it is not altruism in the ordinary sense that they are concerned with, but altruism in the biological sense. It is not a matter of actions that reflect concern for others, but of actions that threaten the reproductive prospects of the actor, while enhancing the reproductive prospects of others. However, we have seen this concern escalate into a vendetta against all semblance of altruism. Clearly the ordinary sense is at stake. Part of what is involved is the nature of understanding itself. The biological is supposed to provide a factual description of the way life actually is. References to selfishness, or to selfish genes for that matter, are only metaphors drawn from the ordinary meaning of selfishness and altruism. They are not to be taken literally. What the literal reality is, or whether it makes sense even to think in such terms, is an issue that is not normally considered. However, this issue of the nature and role of metaphor is crucial for unraveling what is at stake in treatments of altruism.
The power of Dawkins' portrayal of the selfish gene is due in large measure to the skill with which he develops this metaphor. His "biography of the selfish gene"1 represents a highly literate and imaginative account of reality. It is important to see that____________________

Today, RZZ announced the reserves of 117 miilion oz for the Charlie zone. They get 2% NSR, which is $4M+ at the current price of gold ($1750/oz).
So Charlie itself should be about 45 cents a share.
From Sean Rosen's presentation at Denver Gold, there is 1.2M oz waiting for us (that is 30% of the total 4M oz) in the Barnat + Jeffrey.
Even at a sily conservative $500/oz profit, the value of that gold is $600M. We are talking $60 per share.
Market irrational? You bet.

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
View Single Post
May 24 2013, 07:54 AM
Lord Garth
Re: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
debated whether or not I wanted to post what I thought about
Star Trek Into Darkness
here; but I figure there are people who probably want to see my take, so I'll post it anyway. Or, more accurately, cut-and-paste.
Make a note though: I
do not
have the time or energy to get into a prolonged argument. If someone wants to pick apart everything I posted point-by-point then bear in mind I will not get into it. I'm not interested.
I'm here to post what I thought about the film and that's all.
With that out of the way: as I said upthread, I thought the 2009 film was better.
The problems I have with
Star Trek Into Darkness
have to do with STID itself and
the reboot in general:
1. Why would Admiral Marcus need to revive Khan to figure out how to fight the Klingons? It would be like someone today reviving Napoleon to figure out how to fight the North Koreans. Second of all, Starfleet has had 100 years to prepare for the Klingons by this point. The two sides have always been portrayed as powers of equal strength. The Klingons are a threat, but they're not an overwhelming one. Humanity also seems savage and primitive enough that they don't need Khan's insights. The humans in the Abrams films, unlike the Roddenberry series, would fit right into today's world.
2. Khan would never allow himself to become a pawn of Starfleet or Section 31. He'd never save Kirk from the Klingons. And he's not really that ruthless in this film. He should've killed Kirk right before beaming his corpse back to the Enterprise or fatally wounded him at least so he'd be dying and in as much pain as possible even as he intended to destroy the Enterprise. He does horrible things but he himself doesn't act villainous enough. The original Khan, as well as Kruge in "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock", were much more black-hatted, which is what Khan should be.
3. The movie was supposed to show Kirk becoming more mature and growing into an adult. When he's repeatedly punching Khan, he's acting like a 15-year-old. When he constantly turns his head whenever a woman walks by, he's acting like a 14-year-old. When he's having a threesome, it's like a teenage boy's fantasy. I see nothing in the film that shows he became more mature. All I see is a kid who had a bad experience and a rough mission, then made a good speech at the end. He's not an adult. He's still reckless. He's still immature. I don't think this is the type of Captain you want to send out on a five-year mission into the unknown. Is this who the Admiralty wants representing the Federation? The only rationale I can think of is to get Kirk out of the way. It would make more sense to have him in Federation space, thinking outside the box to solve unconventional local problems where he can be of help and they can keep an eye on him.
4. Spock is much too emotional. Spock shouldn't be yelling "KHAAAANNN!!!" and going crazy while fighting him. Spock shouldn't be jealous when Dr. Marcus is assigned as Science Officer and, yes, he was jealous. Spock wouldn't give Pike lip.
5. The treatment of Doctor Marcus is extremely sexist. She undresses while Kirk is in the same room and the only reason is to show a shot of her in her underwear. When she screams after Admiral Marcus is killed, it's like something from out of a '50s B-movie. They can't even stay away from the sex jokes while McCoy is down with her while they perform "surgery" on the torpedo.
6. Why would Khan's blood restore anything to life? They don't even try to explain it. It's just magic blood that can somehow reanimate every cell in your body. On a side-note: does that mean Khan could be immortal?
7. There's an entire ethical dilemma that's not even touched upon. Now that the location of the Botany Bay is known, should these escaped supermen and superwomen stand trial? I'm surprised they were all just left in suspended animation but that could've been mitigated if there was at least a discussion about what should be done with them.
8. There's absolutely no comparison between the scene when Spock was dying in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" and the reverse scene in "Star Trek Into Darkness".
9. When Spock is fighting Khan on Earth, it feels more like "The Matrix" than "Star Trek". And why just beam down Uhura to let Spock know not to kill Khan? Maybe Uhura is the only one who can get through to Spock quickly enough but she's Communications Officer. There should be at least one Security Officer as well.
10. Why would that officer toward the beginning of "Into Darkness" blow up a building just because Khan/Harrison saved his daughter? Seems like an extreme thing to agree to.
11. Starfleet has sensors, ships in orbit have sensors, spacedock has sensors. Why did it take Kirk to figure out that "Harrison" was about to attack where the briefing was being held?
12. This is last because I realized as I was watching that this was the least of the film's problems: if you're going to cast someone to play Khan, it should either be a Hispanic actor, like Ricardo Montalban was, or an Indian. The fact that a 1967 episode and a 1982 film are more diverse than a 2013 film is inexcusable. This is not to slight Benedict Cumberbatch but I think he was miscast, unless they had him just be John Harrison. On that note: I understand that Khan went by a false identity but, if you're going to have the false identity, why not go the rest of the way and have McCoy or Khan himself mention that he was surgically altered?

Today is May 20th 2010 and I am writing this post to discuss the working mechanism of Silverlight's capability of utilizing GPU of your machine.
There are two kinds of graphics popular today:
1. Bitmap Graphics:
Here the graphics is a file that stores the display information in the form of pixel information. Basically the term itself means map of bits. Each pixel stores information about how to light it up, in the data structure: Color Depth. This structure (color depth) can be of various size like 8bit, 16 bit, 32 bit etc. and larger the data structure the more information about the pixel can be stored. This determines the bit depth. So when you buy a scanner/camera kind of device you can relate what bit depth mean and what mega pixel means. Two devices having same megapixel but different bit depth will capture different quality of images.
Now larger the number of pixels per inch you have for your image, lesser would be distortion if you try expanding the image. But as we store larger number of pixels, the size of image also grows large. This means for all practical purpose there is a limit to which you can expand your image to a larger size. Theoretically no matter how many pixels an image contains, expanding to larger size will definitely distort its quality. It is just that it won't be visible to human eye if the expansion and number of pixels are maintained to a balanced level. Not only that the image quality decreases even if you shrink it beyond the allowed limit. That is why we use less pixel images if the display required is small (not primarily because of size, but for quality). So a high resolution image/video will not look good on a small device. You need to re-encode it!
2. Vector Graphics
Here the graphics is store as mathematical formulas. Like lines, formulas for different shapes like curves or even custom algorithm is created to interpret the shape. This means that no matter how big/small display we need, the information will simply remain the same. Size of vector images will remain always same irrespective of how large/small it is displayed. The size changes with the complexity of information stored. If you want to display simple shapes like triangle, circle or even combination of such shapes, vector images are best. But if you ever try to convert a photograph that you clicked on that famous hill station, your resulting vector image would be larger in size and also in worse condition because vector graphics techniques are not so sophisticated to convert the graphics created by God into man made. No lens in the world could be better than your eye and no speaker in the world could be better than your ear! You might call that as a limiting factor or something mysterious :).
Now coming back to Silverlight, the graphics that you display with Silverlight can be rendered using two ways:
1. Using Graphics Card (GPU) (primarily when the graphics is bitmap).
2. Using Software that is run by CPU (primarily when the graphics is vector based).
The XAML that you write in your SL application are displayed using CPU. They are all formulas that are calculated and rendered by CPU. When you instruct SL to use GPU we call that as GPU acceleration. Why "acceleration", I don't know. Probably "assisted" would have been better term.
It is simple. You specify the UI elements that you want to display using GPU by adding the attribute CacheMode="Bitmap". Now all the UI elements are represented in form of object tree in Silverlight. Silverlight does the calculation to create the object tree and forms a bitmap for that object tree. Then, Silverlight gives this bitmap to GPU to display it and keeps it cached. Now, when the application screen refreshes, that part of the screen that you specified to be displayed by GPU is simply rendered by GPU and the rest part of the UI is rendered by SL using CPU. As a result, we are using less CPU and improving performance. Even if you are performing some animations like scaling, changing opacity etc. these are done by GPU and not by CPU.
Why not Always? This seems interesting so why not do it always using GPU? Few reasons (not in order of any priority):
· There are some animations that GPU cannot assist (like changing perspective (3D), animating on each pixel such as pixel shader effects). There is no point in using GPU acceleration in such scenarios.
· If the GPU has less memory and if the memory required by Silverlight is large, Silverlight falls back to CPU mode and you will hit performance. Also there is no way to query memory available in GPU from Silverlight code. However you can query other details like GPU vendor, driver version etc. through Analytics.GpuCollection structure.
· Cache Invalidations: If your UI element is changing a lot and that change cannot be assisted by GPU (another example is changing text of a UI element lie textbox), then cache invalidation happens and we hit on performance.
<param name="enableGPUAcceleration" value="true" />
Also note that on Mac OSX GPU acceleration works only in full screen mode. Users need to have a DirectX9 (windows) or OpenGL2 (Mac) compatible video card.
You can test the GPU acceleration by adding another parameter to the plug-in as shown below: <param name="enableCacheVisualization" value="true" />
This parameter shows all GPU accelerated graphics in natural colors while all non GPU accelerated graphics in Red color for testing purpose.
When you test CPU percentage, make sure you use lesser number of cores and more complex graphics to actually see the difference in performance.
Beware Animation:
Please make sure that the UI elements for which you have used GPU acceleration are using below animations only and not anything else:
Scale, Rotate, Changing Opacity, Clipping (only if clip is rectangular). For all other types of animations like 3D, moving, pixel shaders, do not use GPU acceleration.
