The ErgoCentric eCentric Plus Big & Tall Task Chair with our recommended options is built to offer exceptional comfort for users who need a larger office chair. Adjustment paddles are clearly marked and have a unique shape for ease of adjustment. The eCentric Plus chair is a very comfortable big and tall office chair.
The ErgoCentric eCentric Plus Big & Tall Task Chair Recommended Configuration Features:
ErgoCentric eCentric Plus Big & Tall Task Chair Specifications:
Why We Picked These Options-
This is Good For -
Seat Size
The eCentric Plus comes standard with a 22" wide by 19" deep seat (seat depth is adjustable). Those with longer legs may prefer the extra large seat which adds 2" of depth. There is no extra cost for the extra large seat.
A chair has the correct seated height for the user if their knees are level with, or slightly lower than, their hips. Choose from three different cylinder heights, each with a different adjustment range for seated height. There are no upcharges for the different cylinder choices.
Buy Smart: Getting the right seated height range can be a challenge for a taller user who may also have to deal with not smacking the knees into the desk surface while keeping the position of the keyboard and mouse at the right height. A height adjustable desk eliminates that problem as can a height adjustable keyboard tray. It's not good for the back to have the chair always at its lowest height so choose the cylinder that gets your knees into the right position somewhere above the lowest height for the cylinder. Consider adding a footstool to add blood flow and improve the circulation in your legs.
Choose from standard casters that work well on carpet or carpet protector mats, or soft casters that role more quietly while protecting hard floor surfaces, or glides which don't roll at all.
Teknit for your ErgoCentric eCentric Plus Chair
Your choice of fabric can actually make your chair more comfortable. Teknit is a three-way knit that maximizes the softness of the chair cushions, reducing pressure points that create discomfort and allows for airflow which can keep you more comfortable over the course of the workdday. Teknit is durable and easy to clean. Abrasion rating is 250,000 double rubs for long life.

S.D. mother of 1st surviving U.S. quintuplets dies
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- As the mother of five children in a small South Dakota town, the limelight was the furthest thing from Mary Ann Darling Fischer's mind. All that changed on Sept. 14, 1963, when Fischer gave birth to the first known surviving quintuplets in the United States.
Thrust into the spotlight after giving birth to the four girls and one boy, Fischer and her then-husband retreated into the most quintessential South Dakota activities: they took part in a bowling league, hunted pheasants and attended regular Sunday church services.
"I would rather go into the delivery room than come down here," she said as she faced 30 reporters at her first news conference following the birth of the babies.
Fischer passed away Sunday at age 79. Schriver's Memorial Mortuary and Crematory says she died at Avera St. Luke's Hospital in Aberdeen.
By the time the quintuplets turned 5, the Fischers had turned their back on the publicity for a more normal life for the children.

Jim Rome on Showtime

We know two things for certain about this new series -- it features Jim Rome and it airs on Showtime. We know these two things because the series is called "Jim Rome on Showtime." Yes, they could be using the title in an ironic fashion, but we doubt it, neither Jim Rome nor Showtime seems the type. We are going to go out on a limb though and assume that Mr. Rome will be talking about sports and current sporting events tonight, and doing so in much the same way that he tends to do it, but without the bleeps. This is on Showtime and consequently no beeps are necessary.

'Green Acres' vintage dairy barn becomes wedding, event center
People just can't stay away from the cows.
It's an accidental attraction that eccentric entrepreneur Steve Schussler created when he put 15 life-size, colorful fiberglass cows outside a dairy barn in Eden Prairie, Minn. They've spurred dozens of gawkers to stop and pet or pose with the cows.
They also inspired an even bigger idea for Schussler, nixing plans to use the 1940s-era barn he bought for storage.
Instead, he has created an event center -- a sort of "barn meets bling" -- for weddings, bar mitzvahs, fundraisers and other such events.
This is, after all, no average country barn.
The more than $1 million renovation to the building that will open to the public in February or March includes 35 crystal chandeliers, a silo-turned-wine cellar, vintage jukeboxes and theatrical lighting that includes illumination of the outside of the barn in a bright purple glow.
"It's one of the coolest things I've done in my life, especially to share with Eden Prairie," he said. "The goal is to make people smile and to share with everyone, instead of private space for my laboratories. There's probably nothing like it in any barn in the United States."
Schussler, 57, and his company, Schussler Creative Inc., are best known for dreaming up the 45 Rainforest Cafes and other wild-themed restaurants nationwide. Now he is bringing new life to the barn.
Named Green Acres Event Center, the barn has reservations through 2013 and 2014, but it took three years to get to this point.
In 2010, the condemned barn faced extinction -- it was in the way of a road-widening project. The county planned to raze the barn to make way for drainage ponds, but history buffs argued for preservation.
The county agreed to sell it, and Schussler offered the lone bid of $82,000.
Windowless and with a caved-in silo roof, it was coated in dirt and mouse and bird feces. He rebuilt it and obtained health and historical preservation approval.
Schussler said the project stayed true to the barn's past. Schussler even got input from the son of the original owner.
"We haven't touched the integrity," Schussler said. "Just added my design touch."
There's a wine-and-cheese tasting area, two pianos, a warming kitchen for caterers to use and d�cor honoring the barn's past -- from pitchforks and a vintage 1942 tractor to 150 oil lanterns.
Joining the cows outside are eight fiberglass geese.
The Friends of Minnesota Barns, which advocates for barn preservation, recently presented Schussler its top award for nonagricultural adaptive reuse of a barn.
Some credit might have to go to residents who first planted the idea in Schussler's head to use the barn as more than just private storage. Besides paying him weekly visits, residents sent him letters praising those eye-catching cows and urging him to do more with the barn.
"It's become an obsession to share," he said. "We put our heart and soul in it."

For all the talk that the Pittsburgh Steelers are getting old on defense and that their offense will be in disarray under a new coordinator, this is a talented roster with a healthy mix of youth and veterans.
Several Steelers seem poised for a big leap in production in 2012.
The list comes from a mix of young players and slightly more established ones. Here's a look at six who could make the biggest jump.

Several weeks ago, almost 20 teams of men, women and children from the Winona Friends Church volunteered their time and effort to various agencies, health care organizations and communities. All in the name of making things better for the many individuals who benefit from the work of these organizations.
The Fleming House, located in Lisbon, was the recipient of such help and support. More than 30 individuals, including children all pitched in to help brighten and improve the house that supports women and their children.
Painting, carpentry and landscaping projects were undertaken and completed that morning. The house is now "wearing" a fresh and renewed look as we are celebrating its 10th anniversary.
We commend Pastor Rusty Savage and his many parishioners for the dedication and enthusiasm they have shown us and numerous others over the years.

@Fabio Galuppo: Don't drink too much of the typesafe coolaide :) While I love what they are doing, I am not so fond of their attempt to pervert associations like Reactive == Actor, Actor == Typesafe therefore Reactive == Typesafe. Reactive is much bigger than that. Rx plays his part, which we are all super grateful to Erik (and Bart et.al) for giving us. Rx is cross platform now thanks to continued work from MS, Erik and Guys like Ben at Netflix.
Another point, this is a canned presentation. It is a well planned and executed and has been performed at other conferences. The firing analogy works well for it's purpose (comedy, marketing stunt and conveying knowledge). In my experience, off stage Erik is a very sweet and passionate person.
Thanks for sharing, explaining and moderating Charles. Keep it up!
Bart rocks.
@scyonx, If you are looking for some help on Current Best practices in the industry when using Rx, look over to ReativeTrader from the crew at Adaptive. There will be more in the way of blogs from them soon too. If you want anything more specific, I imagine you could just get in contact with them
Thanks Brian.
I thought this would be another mis-guided discussion on MVVM and some dogmatic views and misunderstanding between Prism and MVVM. I was pleasantly surprised. I agree with most of what you have said here.
In my experience, what many WPF devs are missing is the next 40-60min of this discussion.
Would enjoy seeing a show with this level of Q&A happening (i.e. the actual questions that come up in any Enterprise MVVM app after the first hour of coding).
Again good job.
26:30 The general argument I have heard against regions is that (in C#) if you class is so big you need regions, you are doing it wrong. The exception I see for this is CustomControls in WPF/SL.
15:15 "that not the way XAML would do it!" true, the first value is the Left value not the Top as per CSS. However your point as to a 3 value margin is wrong. XAML only supports 1, 2 or 4 values. 3 is not allowed. For 1 value; all sides get that margin, 2 values First value is Left&Right Second value is Top& bottom, 4 Values; Left, Top, Right, Bottom.
Concurrent<T> looks very similar to the EventLoopScheduler in the Reactive Extension library (Rx). Nice feature to have the Thread.Join in the destruction. Also nice to get the result back in a future, however .NET would just use Tasks<T> for this. Scheduling is a slightly different problem space, better suited for the fire and forget problem like the logging example.
Good session as usual
.NET dev, but interested in what ever Herb says
IE was the best browser from v4.5 to v6 (or 1998 to 2004/5)
Paul is spot on, IE6-9 was a really poor experience compared to Google's Chrome and FF.
M$ marketing budget maybe wasted here. First make sure IE actually doesn't suck any more (maybe it doesn't but my fingers have been burnt), next gain a natural following by having a product that doesn't suck.
The only people marketing will work on are the people who cant make the critical analysis for themselves, these are the people that will have just used IE all along because it comes with windows.
The only way to get a loyal following back, is from a quality product....and time (for those old wounds to heal)
I want IE to be good (like .NET, Win8, SQL Server, WP, XBox). Installing Chrome is a pain in the rear, just less of a pain than using IE.
@Minh You can also get the zero-to-hero guidance from www.IntroToRx.com. If it doesn't provide what you need then (as you sound like the target audience) then we will try harder for version 2 of the book/site, if you provide the feedback.

Can Business Vehicle Pass Sniff Test?
Staten Island commercial bank says warning signs may help owners avoid a breakdown
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – Suspect odors that a vehicle gives off can frequently signal trouble that might be potentially expensive.
Victory State Bank, Staten Island's only community-based business bank, offers that any peculiar smell isn't something that could be ignored.
With a nod to the Car Care Council, the bank commends to business owners six vehicle warning signs that can be detected as odors.
While most motorists are fond of what's known as that new car smell, there are some other specific odors that motorists should also be aware of, the council advises.
Identifying these suspect smells early on can help owners avoid the hassle and expense of an unexpected breakdown.
The council recommends a vehicle sniff test to identify any unusual smells, including the following six warning signs:
1. The smell of burnt rubber could be slipping drive belts or misplaced loose hoses that might be rubbing against rotating accessory drive pulleys. Do not reach in if the engine compartment is hot.
2. The smell of hot oil could mean that oil is leaking onto the exhaust system. To verify the leak, look for oil on the pavement or smoke coming from the engine area.
3. The smell of gasoline is likely the sign of a gas leak in some area of the vehicle such as a fuel injector line or the fuel tank. Any smell of fuel can result in a possible fire hazard, so immediate attention should be given.
4. The sweet smell of syrup may be a sign that your car is leaking engine coolant from a leaky component related to the car's cooling system. Do not open the radiator cap when it is hot.
5. The smell of burning carpet could be a sign of brake trouble and a safety hazard. Have your brakes checked right away, especially if this smell is happening during normal driving conditions.
6. If the smell of rotten eggs is coming from your vehicle, it could mean a problem with your catalytic converter or a poorly running engine causing the catalytic converter to become overloaded and fail due to meltdown.
When there is any peculiar odor, it should not be ignored. Instead, take the vehicle to a professional service technician to get an informed opinion, says Rich White, the council's executive director.
The Car Care Council is the source of information for the "Be Car Care Aware" campaign promoting the benefits of regular vehicle care. A copy of the council's "Car Care Guide" is available at carcare.org.

Barry Bordelon said he resigned as executive director of the Jefferson Parish Housing Authority "after much reflection'' and at the "urging'' Board Chairman Patrick Pierson.'' In a letter to the authority's Board of Commissioners he said he believes the authority will be "cleared and then once again my name shall be cleared'' of the criticial review by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's inspector general.
The embattled executive director resigned just days after the Jefferson Parish Council called for his termination after a scathing federal audit of the agency. Bordelon, who has served as executive director of the agency since 2006 after serving as its board chairman, had been under fire for years as the agency dealt with a number of reports from officials with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for questionable expenses, poor record-keeping and issues le contract procurement issues.
Bordelon is not the same Barry Bordelon who served on the Jefferson Parish School Board.

Im new to boxing i have the feeling i can box the only way for me to find out is give it a try so i got into a boxing gym in january 12 this year it was not really a complete a gym they lacked some equipment it was mixed with jiu jitsu and kickboxing and taekwondo. But the trainer they assigned for me is a golden gloves winner 2years ago in my city he is only 3years older than me so we pretty much the same age.
I have not done anything since i was in college for 4years no exercise or anything and the training was not easy at first week my wrist hurts, my fingers hurts and elbow joints because im doing things wrong and i jogged and the weather was bit rainy and i got flu and then a fever. I quit for about a week then came back. Then the next week my trainer said im ready for a light spar, then at the end of the week they said they gonna move me to advanced fullspeed sparring. The next week there was a competition for beginers in the gyms in town i joined but my flu was coming back 1st i won by points, 3days later i also won the second fight also by points and on the 3rd i did not come i was so sick my nasal passage and throat were swollen i could not eat or breath through my nose easily flu was dripping in my nose. So i lost the tournament i havent been back to the gym now for 12days now and now im feeling ok i will go back tommrow.
I hope my body will be able cope in this sport because my body naturaly is just sickly, soft and weak. Im hoping to join some competions in my friends hometown next month wish me luck i will need it.

I am one of those who are really dedicated I want it more then anything. I havnt even had a fight yet but Iv been training for about a year spared before, and yeah Im kind of a ***** about it but I love it. My trainer told me I have "it". Im not quite sure what he means by that but we had a conversation and he told me that all these other guys that come in here yeah some can fight and some will almost go the distance, but then he looked me in the eyes and said "your gonna be a champion kid". I know it sounds really weird and kinda gayish. But it was the most inspirational thing I have ever heard. I enjoyed posting this so thanks for reading[/QUOTE

MAYOR NUTTER - the same man who has repeatedly staged news conferences to publicly shame tax deadbeats - was delinquent on his gas bill and received a three-day shutoff notice from Philadelphia Gas Works, the Daily News has learned.
On May 3, Nutter received the notice, which shows a past-due balance of $507.76. About two weeks later, court records show, the city placed a lien on his Wynnefield house, which was not satisfied until last Saturday.
"The bill is paid. Nothing happened. There's no story here," Nutter said when asked Monday about the matter. Nutter, who earns $174,400 a year, declined to elaborate.

EARTH CITY, Mo. — The biggest question for the Rams right now is who will back up workhorse running back Steven Jackson.
Although he remains one of the most consistently productive backs in the league — his streak of six consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons is the most by any current player — Jackson played through some nagging injuries last season. He recently turned 28 and is just two years away from the age when most running backs start to decline.
Since 2007, Jackson has the most touches (carries and receptions), 1,319, of any player in the league. He still is the linchpin of the Rams offense — but right now there isn't much behind him.
The only running backs on the roster are Keith Toston, who rushed just 19 times for the Rams last year; Chauncey Washington, a free-agent rookie last year who spent most of the season on the practice squad; and Eddie Wide, a free-agent rookie.
"Those guys have to show us what they've got," coach Steve Spagnuolo said, "and they'll get plenty of opportunities to do it."
In the meantime, general manager Billy Devaney is looking for a veteran running back that could be added to the roster. There are several unsigned players, including former Raiders running back Michael Bush, but for now the Rams are standing pat.

"I just wanted to say thank you to my trainer again for the job well-done on instructing the course. My trainer did a great job at taking complicated, detailed, and scientifically advanced concepts and explaining them in a way for people without a kinesiology-related background to understand. As an educator he was amicable, yet professional- a very admirable quality!
For myself, specifically, this course really helped get me back into the personal training frame-of-mind and back into the 'swing of things', so to speak, seeing as I had not been at GoodLife or personal training for about a year and a half.
There were a variety of little things I learned from the course including corrective posture movements and stretching concepts. However, I also found the numerous tips and pointers offered to us from the trainer's personal experiences to be most helpful and insightful."

Over the past 50 years the James Bond franchise has been a massive part of the movie industry. Spanning the last five decades, six iconic actors have portrayed the super-cool and highly skilled spy known as 007, including the likes of Sean Connery, Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan. Finally all 22 movies have come to Blu-Ray disc with this exciting collector's edition box set filled with over 130 hours of special features and never before seen content.
From Dr. No right through to the latest thrill-ride Quantum of Solace, Bond has crossed paths with many evil villains, tackled an array of daring missions and proved himself to be a modern day Casanova... with a licence to kill!
Produced using the highest possible picture quality and audio presentation, this pristine collection showcases 50 spectacular years of Bond and is a must for any diehard fan of the saga who wants to relive the Bond story from its epic opening to its latest explosive chapter. -M.F.

Excellent box set.Came in good time and packaged well.
HI-DEF remastered version of all the bond movies except skyfall. But luckly they have a placeholder for skyfall so you can just purchase that one seperate (I have the UK bluray one) All transfers are excellent so if you are a bond fan there is no reason not to buy this collection. The price here was also the cheapest I found. It is the same version that is sold in other country (belgium etc) so the disc also have dutch subtitles, I guess all euro languages are included. 10/10
Great Bond movies from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig! Even better to watch them all on blu ray...can't wait for the next Bond movie!
Was very pleased with both service and product looking forward to doing more purchasing with zavvi.
Excellent price for box set, very good delivery. Very good picture for BLURAY. Love book pictures with BLURAY discs. Big fan of James Bond.
Oh how I want to give this 5 stars. It's terrific (I wanted to be smart and quote a Bond villain in my review title) but it's not perfect. The picture quality is great throughout and the big visual flaws with the Ultimate Edition DVDs have been fixed (the ludicrous colour correction on OHMSS, the framing on Goldeneye) but the big bugs this time around are the sound and packaging. Sound: only half of the films include the original mono and/or stereo sound mixes, the other half (even the earliest ones) only contain rather OTT faux 5.1 surround remixes featuring new sound effects, meaning the movies you grew up with now don't sound the way you remember them (explosions, guns shots, machinery even cat meows have been replaced...Goldfinger's Oscar winning mono sound mix is now unavailable). Packaging: it doesn't come in bluray cases, it comes in two hardback 'books' with slots in the cardboard pages, tomes that are far too long to fit comfortably on a shelf surrounded by other blurays and are covered with 'artwork' that is so poorly rendered, it's almost embarrassing. Heaven forbid that, for the 50th anniversary, we should look back with nostalgia at packaging that celebrated the iconic poster artwork from the original releases. MGM are still obsessed with trying to make us think these film were all released yesterday with their 'modern' artwork - photos of the actor's faces photoshopped into wrinkle free heads attached to different bodies. Nowhere does it state what the extra audio tracks are on the packaging (it would be nice to know which is which), even though there's plenty of room to include such info, the extras are not listed anywhere, the plots are not summarised and at least one of the films is incorrectly classified (it states The Living Daylights is a 12, a fact the BBFC doesn't agree with). A decent, dare I say 'normal', bluray box set with traditional packaging, original soundtrack options on all films, informative liner notes and a bit more care overall would be appreciated next time. Otherwise, it's nearly there. Do pay attention, MGM.
Delivered in two jiffy envelopes by hand normal mail (although it will not fit through letterbox), this box set of blu ray Bond I am very pleased to own. I watch films on projection so I will be very interested to see which films 'work' as home cinema. Each disc is very well protected and easily accessible. I love the way there is a Bond girl next to each disc along with the year the film was made: Thunderball is my favourite girl pic!
Superb set for any Bond fan non stop action at a great price with fast delivery . What more do you want ?
This is the best collection then I have ever. Thank you Zavvi for this!
If you like Bond...James Bond, then you'll adore this beautifully restored Complete Bond Collection. Every film from Dr. No to Quantum of Solace is here even giving you a little space to put your Skyfall disc. It's a shame Skyfall isn't included, but then in three years time we'll be saying it's a shame the next Bond film hasn't been included. It's a vicious cycle. All films come loaded with extras to compliment the movie which is a real bonus. After watching fifteen Bond movies in a row, you might find yourself getting a little shaken and stirred, but each film is a real delight in it's own way. Except Moonraker - no one likes Moonraker.
I love all the Bond movies and this bluray collection has really enriched and enhanced the original quality of the first films. The quality of extras diminishes as the movies get more modern but there is an extra bonus disc full of behind the scenes info. There is a slot for Skyfall which can be purchased at a reasonable price to add to the set.
The picture quality is beautiful and I can only recommend.
This collection is a "must have" for every bond fan!
The Complete James Bond Collection is a very good price. The picture is very good and so is the sound.
The Complete James Bond Collection is every James Bond film, recreated in perfect Blu-ray quality. The re-mastering of the earlier Bonds is especially excellent. Dr No looks as fresh as movies 30 or 40 years younger than it! It's presented in nice, special edition packaging to celebrate 50 years of Bond. It's an excellent purchase!
This is a significant improvement on the Ultimate James Bond DVD collection in terms of picture quality. Considering Dr No is 50yrs old you wouldn't imagine you could pull it into the realms of 1080p HD without artefacts or smoothing/blurring. I always thought the DVD's were amazing in terms of the digital restoration, but the BluRay is something else. The size of the box set has saved me substantially more space than was used with the DVD collection (which I had by buying each DVD one by one). It doesn't include Never Say Never Again which was never part of the official bond catalogue but was a Sean Connery Bond film. Skyfall isn't included in the box set HOWEVER, there IS a cardboard filler for SkyFall meaning when it's released, you can buy the BluRay (http://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/skyfall-includes-dvd-and-digital-copy/10655927.html) and put the disc inside this 50yrs of Bond box set. That's my plan anyway! In summary: A fantastic box set at a fantastic price. I already had the DVD's as mentioned and feel that this BluRay set was worth every penny in replacement. Buy It!
The Complete James Bond Collection is a great collection. It's a must-have for any James Bond fan.
Anyone who is a fan of JB needs to have this collection in their home. The best quality that Blu-Ray has to offer and superb sound with the right home cinema system will bring all the bond films to a level you have never experienced at home before. Truly a collectors edition celebrating 50 years of James Bond!
Very happy with my purchase. Box set packaging is immaculate and movie quality is great. Delivery to australia was a good 5 working days slower than other uk sites ive shopped on but apart from that a happy customer
The Complete James Bond Collection is excellent. It contains every Bond movie on Blu-ray, which are presented in a fantastic solid case with two very well made books of discs. Buy this set, you will not regret it.
A good package, the films are presented in great clarity and the sound is good. The packaging is fiddly and I can imagine will wear quite quickly - all in all though good value for money.
The Complete James Bond Collection is a fantastic box set for any Bond or movie fan in general. With 22 films in this set (23 when Skyfall comes out on Blu-Ray), there is much excitement to be had with some amazing transfers to some the early classics. The sound of the movies is equally impressive, that will provide a good workout for any home theatre system. Anyone who is interested with the extras will be glad to know there are a decent amount to keep you busy (although more new ones could have been added). If you are a Bond fan, then this set is a must-have. Despite not every film being perfect, these films can still be very fun and the classics (e.g. From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Goldeneye etc.) will be able to be experienced as they should be. So sit back, turn off the lights, grab some popcorn, and enjoy!
There are hours of entertainment here!
Well presented box set, a great collectors item. Have only watched Dr. No so far and was very impressed with the blu ray quality considering it is the oldest of the films. Buy it, you will not be disappointed!
What can I say? The Complete James Bond Collection box set (or more specifically, what lies within) really does speak for itself. 50 years of Bond, 22 films, six lead actors, countless Bond girls, gadgets, explosions and eyebrow raises, and more classic one-liners than you could shake a Martini at. This really does have it all - well, except for the wonderful Skyfall (possibly the best Bond yet), but there's even a space in the box reserved for it for when it becomes available in 2013. The films look and sound amazing and the extras are fantastic too. Well, the ones are that I've watched so far. With an additional disc of never before seen footage and over 120 hours of bonus material in total. The only thing that doesn't come included in this stunning box set, is a week's holiday from work, to enable you to watch it all. Long live 007!
I have over 300 different movie titles on DVD and Blu Ray but nothing comes close to how good this box set is. We know the films and to see them all together at last is a recipe for losing weeks of your life watching these great films. Its got to be the best packaging, with all of the films in order and in what can only be described as a children's book like presentation with the layout and the thick cardboard pages. There are heaps of special features, however I was disappointed with the bonus disc. They are very short, each being only a few minutes long. The real bonus is what is on each disc with a 30 minute documentary on each film up to license to kill. After that there's even more content.
Excellent value for money, compact boxset of every Bond film, also includes a space in the set for the new Skyfall Blu-ray when it is released next year, would recommend to all!
What more would you want? 22 Bond films and a disc of extras to set you up for Skyfall. Oh and a space for Skyfall when it's released next year - prepare for a blast!
The complete James Bond collection on bluray is a steal. I am not going to review the films as everyone knows them to well & of course some are better than others. Picture quality & sound are a step up from DVD & if your a Bond fan you can not go wrong with this box set which as plenty of extras in the box. There is room in the box to add 1 more Bond film once it is released.
I have this on pre-order and cannot wait. I have Dr. No on Blu-ray and that is stunning on Blu-ray and they have all been remastered using the same codec. This is the collection to beat them all. Calling it the Complete James Bond collection is wrong though as sadly "Never Say Never Again" which starred Sean Connery is not in this collection, like all previous collections it was left out as EON Productions did not own the rights to this 007 movie. But it was a remake of Thunderball. The price is truly magnificent, this will sell out fast.

|Cotati names Schnapp as new finance director
The City of Cotati on Feb. 14 announced the hiring of Marcia Schnapp as the new finance director. Schnapp's first day on the job was Feb. 19.
She has experience as a finance director in both the public and private sectors. She held the position of finance director for the San Mateo County Harbor District as well as many years in banking and securities and working as a controller in the manufacturing industry. City Manager Dianne Thompson said her ability to understand both the public and the private sector will be a benefit to Cotati.
Born and raised in San Francisco, Marcia is a graduate of Lowell High School. She earned her B.A. in economics from Mills College in Oakland, and an M.B.A. in finance and technology project management from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. In addition, she attended the prestigious Pacific Coast Banking School of executive bank management at the University of Washington, graduating from the three-year program with honors.
She is currently pursuing the Certified Public Finance Officers (CPFO) designation from the Government Finance Officers Association.
"In Cotati, Ms. Schnapp will focus her expertise on operations and functions of the finance department, and will help build a financially sustainable future for the city," Thompson said. "We are fortunate to have Ms. Schnapp join our team."

I guess you never did a formal evaluation of you security relevant

Let's put it that way: There is no open source solution that doesn't
spill its beans too easily - key container and crypto engine should be
brought together close enough to force complete destruction of the
keys should anyone try to get access to them _or_ to the data path
between them. Just take a look at Apple's last failure in this regard
(the iPhone) and you'll see an example of "not close enough".
And no, I'm not talking about a mobile system, I'm more worried about
the case of physical security not being strong enough (like in the
case of governmental goons breaking down your doors or US customs and
immigration staff seizing running machines ["turn your machine on and
prove to us that it isn't a bomb... Thank you, now it's ours."] as
they have already done); emergency shutdown of all systems should
reliably render your data inaccessible.
The fact that British authorities lost four mobile computers with
masses of sensitive data (like a complete list of their military
reserve personnel including complete financial details) on their disks
since October 2007 rather makes me laugh - they don't deserve crypto
solutions but a good flogging with a bundle power cords.
Anyway: I don't completely trust any system where keys have to travel
across an unprotected bus. I'm still sad about TPMs not having made
their way at least into 99% of the server mainboards. Just take a look
at ISBN://978-0-7506-7960-2 (you just shouldn't completely hand over
the device to your friendly OS vendor) and ISBN://0-387-23916-2 (which
will prove your point - even IBM didn't follow the "think before
crypto" rule).
> (or maybe my tin-foil hat is too tight).
You got too close to Theo the Rat, that's all.
I guess we should take this off (at least *this* list). And tell me if
you want to read the books.

MOBILE, Ala. -- Former professional football player Keith McCants was arrested at midday today on a charge of use and possession of drug paraphernalia, Mobile police said.
It is at least the fourth arrest in less than a year for the former defensive player for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, University of Alabama and Murphy High School, according to Press-Register archives.
McCants was released about 2 hours after he was booked at Mobile County Metro Jail, according to jail records.
Police spokesman Officer Christopher Levy said narcotics officers spotted McCants in the 1300 block of Hercules Street about noon and found an item considered drug paraphernalia. Levy would not specify what the item was.
On May 4, McCants was arrested on a charge of attempting to purchase drugs, and on Dec. 19, McCants was picked up on a paraphernalia charge as well as a charge of loitering for the purpose of drug activity, according to Press-Register files.
Last Oct. 20, McCants was arrested on outstanding warrants for failure to appear in court to answer two misdemeanor drug charges, according to the files.

My pet theory is that the water fraction is a big deal. Folks eat defective dry food, lose health, and blame the effect on glucose. Bread, pasta, granola, cereal, popcorn, and crackers have horrifyingly high kcal/pound (more than any steak or egg) so if satiety is influenced by stomach weight those foods will lead to gross energy excess.
By contrast I do not restrict the following foods: potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, parsnips, taro, cassava, lotus root, burdock root, squashes (butternut, kabocha, acorn), plantains, breadfruit, chestnuts, acorns (Korean "dotori"), berries, citrus, melons, stone fruits (nectarines, cherries, apricots), tropical fruit, pears, apples, grapes. I do measure and minimize tapioca flour, dates, honey, etc.
Despite not restricting, when I examine the menu I virtually never exceed 150g carbohydrate in a day just following my appetite. Average is closer to 100g. This is low-carb by USDA standards and lower-carb than any national average on the planet. Am I unusual? Who knows, but this approach gives me a lot of serenity.

I've read that study, and the improvement in beta-cell function was associated with reduced ectopic fat (lipotoxicity) as a result of the severe caloric restriction, yet Spreadbury presented it as support for a low carbohydrate paleo diet.Originally Posted by Ian Spreadbury
Anyhow... that's a good article about carbohydrate requirements. Thanks for sharing.
This article reminds me alot of mark's "carb curve" that gets severely lambasted on these forums, just lyle doesn't really go into fat-loss regarding the carb partitioning, more of a 'go with what works for you'.
In light of this, alot of people plonk themselves somewhere along this range and stay there. In fact 3 distinct "camps" have kind of formed that most primal dieters align to and fight about. They are low, medium and high carb eating (duh). Unless you have a specific need to be in one of these camps (like keto for epilepsy and cancer control), I believe it is less than optimal to align with one specific carb eating "camp". The optimal way to eat carbs in my books is to "eat the range" and be in all the camps cyclically over a week or fortnight. A few brief reasons for this are;
*gene expression, ancient man for millions of years, would've had a very fluctuating range of macro and cal amounts that he ate on a daily/weekly basis.
*our bodies tend to suffer chronically if we don't give body systems a rest. sitting at one end of the carb spectrum means one metabolic glucose processing system is not getting used while the other is constantly used.(once again, don't flame me if you need to align with a camp to alleviate serious conditions).
but yeah, lyle is a good goto for base nutritional or metabolic knowledge.
A little primal gem - My Success Story
Weight lost in 4 months - 29kg (64 lbs)
Regarding sago, there seems to be a dose-response relationship involved between refinement and metabolic and health outcomes. Most bread-eating Westerners were not obese until we really pushed the industrialisation and refinement of food to new heights in the late 20th century. The sago eaters likely still have plenty of whole foods in their diet, but, like 1900s Europeans, I suspect it is unlikely they have hunter-gatherer or Kitavan levels of metabolic and inflammatory health despite their leanness.
Lyle also says: if you have a sweet tooth, eat some artificially sweetened jello (on low carb days). Lyle is very much into chemistry games. I dunno, for me Lyle is an alternative to Paleo. I see paleo as natural eating, while Lyle's as highly constructed and artificial. His approaches can be extreme. They get results. And they are hard to achieve without aids of artificial foods.

There's no debate about it: 'Amish Mafia' is a hit
LANCASTER -- Discovery Channel claims its new series, "Amish Mafia," has broken viewership records for its portrayal of previously unseen law-enforcers among the Amish community here.
A national ratings system and local feedback indicate people are tuning in in droves to watch Lebanon Levi, Jolin the Mennonite and their gang of "protectors."
A Discovery executive insisted in a recent interview that the characters are genuine Amish and Mennonite folks living in Lancaster County, not paid actors.
"They are actual people," Laurie Goldberg, Discovery's vice president of public relations, said last week. "These are real people in the Amish and Mennonite communities."
The network also claims that while many events on the show are re-enacted, they are based on actual happenings.
In its first three episodes (and a few spinoffs), the series depicts Levi's crew wielding guns in fancy cars while confronting violators of the Amish community.
Local viewers claim they know better.
"That fighting mentality isn't even there," said Jeffrey Conrad, local defense attorney and former prosecutor who has litigated "scores" of cases involving the Amish. "We can't even get them to file lawsuits when we suggest it."
Conrad said he recently did an interview for an ABC news show regarding Amish behavior here -- Conrad believed it was in response to Discovery's series.
Conrad said the interview was halted when he didn't tell stories of guns, avid partying and other mayhem depicted in the series.
During his seven years as a local prosecutor, he heard of no such "mafia" group.
"We would have gone after them," he said.
Other critics have created spoof social-media pages, including a catchall page, simply titled "Amish Mafia is Fake."
On those pages, hordes of followers post wisecracks and take shots at Discovery's vision of the allegedly untold side of the Amish.
The debate rings on as the network stands by the events, as does a prominent player on the show, local attorney Steven Breit.
Fact or fiction, almost everyone seems to be talking about the series.
"The show displayed another side of the Amish people," Breit said. "Folks in Lancaster County are having a hard time coming to grips with that. You've got people (here) looking at it with a jaundiced eye."
Breit said he doesn't confirm or deny the events on the series, but says he has heard of such activity while defending many Amish folks over the years.
"The events are re-creations," he said. "I can't speak for the embellishments."

The West Texas A&M police department and a school official said a campuswide evacuation at the Canyon campus on Monday was an exercise.
All buildings on campus were evacuated during the drill, which was expected to be completed at 5 p.m. Monday, and classes were expected to resume Monday evening, said WT spokeswoman Rana McDonald.
McDonald said evacuation plans are required by the WT system, and the university wanted to do the drill to make sure it kept the campus safe.
"We wanted to go through the drill, review it and see what we can do to improve," she said.
Students received emails and text messages through the Buff Alert system at 1:45 p.m. that said, "Evacuate campus immediately. Get in your car and leave campus. Campus is closed. Further info later." A message that the evacuation was a drill followed the original message, McDonald said.
"We left it as a surprise, because we want students to be ready for an emergency, and we would have had some students not participate and blow it off if (they had known it was a drill)," she said.

What is in this article?:
- Growers urged to prepare for Sandy's arrival
- Short range preparations
• The New York State Office of Emergency Management is already warning citizens of Sandy's approach, and New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets urges farmers to pay close attention to those warnings.
Cornell Cooperative Extension urges all farmers to prepare ahead of time for power outages, structural or crop damage, insurance claims and damage that could accompany Hurricane Sandy, also dubbed "Frankenstorm" and the "Perfect Storm."
The New York State Office of Emergency Management is already warning citizens of Sandy's approach, and New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets urges farmers to pay close attention to those warnings.
Long-range preparations can include purchasing or making rental agreements for special equipment, making adjustments to property and reviewing business arrangements.
Short-range preparations should focus on immediate concerns such as turning off propane, moving livestock or equipment to safe places or updating phone numbers for emergency assistance.
Equipment needs may include a generator, fuel, a hand fuel pump, fire extinguishers, first aid kits, a flashlight and batteries, NOAA weather radio and batteries, stored water and feed for humans and livestock and a camera to document damage.
Photos of agricultural losses are very helpful to the USDA, especially with their livestock indemnity programs.
Tobacco farms or nursery operations with greenhouses, dairies, and hog and poultry operations are especially vulnerable if power remains out for a lengthy period. Those farmers may want to purchase a generator, and the sooner the better. Farmers who cannot purchase a generator should consider leasing or negotiating a rental arrangement for a back-up generator in advance.
Be aware that some rental contracts are only for eight hours use per day.
Property preparations can include clearing debris from drainage ditches so water can run freely, checking power lines for clearance and pruning or removing trees that could fall on lines, surveying buildings for limbs or trees close to buildings and pounding in extra nails or tightening hurricane straps to prevent wind damage.
Other precautions include clearing away all debris that could blow in high winds, securing farm signs and photographing valuable items and storing the pictures off site.
Farmers and homeowners alike should store all business records above flood level, which is generally at least two feet off the floor.
A final long-range preventive measure is reviewing business affairs, including insurance policies, debt level and finances. Farmers need to ensure they have adequate insurance coverage for homes, vehicles, farm buildings and structures, crops and flood damage.
Finally, farmers should develop an emergency plan for their families and their farm workers and should establish a meeting place where everyone can gather after a disaster. They also need to assign and prioritize preparation and recovery duties.

According to a release from Burzichelli's office, the bill authorizes a reduction only for calendar year 2010 in the minimum number of thoroughbred racing dates required by law to be scheduled by Monmouth Park Racetrack and Meadowlands Racetrack.
Under the bill, in 2010 Monmouth Park would be permitted to schedule a minimum of 71 live racing days and the Meadowlands would be permitted to schedule no thoroughbred races.
"Gov. Christie's transition team projected that the Meadowlands and Monmouth would lose $22 million combined in 2010, a loss that would be difficult to justify for taxpayers and the industry alike given our state's fiscal crisis," said Burzichelli. "Reduced dates for this year combined with larger purses will mean a stronger industry and hopefully help attract stronger crowds as we continue working on ways to strengthen the industry's future."
State law requires Monmouth and the Meadowlands to schedule no less than 141 dates in the aggregate each year through 2016.
"One thing we know for sure about our horse racing industry is that the status quo is not sustainable," Burzichelli said. "These problems are a reality, and at least with this bill we are taking a step toward accepting that reality and devising a solution that benefits everyone."
The bill also:
Authorizes the Standardbred Breeders' and Owners' Association of New Jersey to grant $3 million to the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority (NJSEA) to promote the Meadowlands and Monmouth race tracks.
Authorizes the New Jersey Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association (NJTHA) to lend up to $2 million to the NJSEA or use as purse money at Monmouth in 2010.
Directs the NJSEA to distribute any unused purse money available on Nov. 21, 2010 for programs to aid New Jersey thoroughbred horsemen during 2011.
Authorizes the NJSEA to use $2.27 million from 2009 purse underpay for the meet at Monmouth from Sept. 11 to Nov. 21 this year.
Allows the NJSEA to use $2.25 million to increase purses payable to New Jersey-bred foals finishing first, second or third in open races by 20 percent, but not more than $20,000 per horse per race.
Authorizes the New Jersey Horse Racing Injury Compensation Board to use $2 million in surplus funds to make a loan this year to the NJTHA, with $1.5 million used to pay breeders' awards from 2008 and 2009 that remain unpaid and $500,000 used to pay awards to breeders and owners of New Jersey-bred horses who earn purses at out-of-state tracks after the end of New Jersey's 2010 season and before the start of the 2011 season.

While we have been on dozens of cruises, this was only my second cruise with Princess (and my spouse's first). We are primarily Celebrity cruisers (with RCCL second), but have tried a variety of cruise lines, so we thought we would give Princess a try out. I have always had excellent service on Celebrity (and Azamara), but have found RCCL to be sliding downhill in recent years (along with food quality), so we wanted to give Princess a try. I had sailed Princess around the British Isles in 2005 and found the trip above average (although the food was excellent). As Princess is allowed to enter Glacier Bay for their cruises, testing them in Alaska seemed like the ideal choice. We sailed a northbound itinerary from Vancouver to Whittier, but did not use Princess for any land tour package add on.
In one word, the cruise was excellent! Really, really great cruise. The thing that stands out to most was the staff. Helpful, but not intrusive; polite, but not solicitous, every person we dealt with was simply congenial and kind. From the guest services to the waiters (more on the wait staff to follow) to our cabin attendant to even the maintenance people we met working routine inspections around the ship, everyone was so calm, helpful, and efficient that it made the cruise even more relaxing. Just superior service and personnel all around.
I can easily place the waiters and food staff on par with Azamara. We frequently went to the buffet in the café for breakfast or even afternoon snack/lunch. Within seconds of sitting down, the staff were there to take our beverage order, a very nice touch. And they returned often to ask about refills.
The cabin attendant worked alone and kept the cabin clean and ready for us. We were given a handicapped balcony cabin, although we do not require it (we were on a BD guarantee and assigned this cabin). The only negative to this was that the shower was a large area with only a shower curtain and drainage track on the floor to define the space. Unfortunately, with each shower, the floor past the drains would flood and leave a wet mess in the bathroom. Talking with our neighbors who were also in a handicapped cabin we learned that they, too, had the same problem. The cabin attendant was very familiar with this problem and gave us each extra towels to place around the drain areas to "dam up" the water and then soak up the wet areas. What a mess for the cabin attendant, and an little inconvenient for us, but not enough to detract from the benefits of a much larger cabin and at least 50% larger balcony! Still, this drainage problem needs a little work (and redesign) by Princess.
Food was excellent. I ate scallops and shrimp just about every night. Perfectly cooked, huge portions and excellent sauces. Many of the pasta dishes, however, (especially the gnocchi) were not very good (I tired a few as smaller portion starters). I had read in previous reviews that the menu never changed, but I found this absolutely incorrect. The left hand side of the menu listed the daily appetizers at the top and then the "always" available entrees just beneath this. The daily and changing salads, soups, and entrees were listed on the right page with both the "always" available desserts and daily changing desserts also on the right page. And desserts were also wonderful and the best of any cruise line I have sailed in the past few years! The scale when I arrived home proved that! I noted there were also many sugar-free desserts available, at least one different one in the café and dining room each day. And they would even make special dishes for you if you asked ahead of time; one couple we dined with were vegetarians and the chef prepared Indian specialty meals for them every night that were not listed on the menu...just ask. I also noted that if you asked for minor changes in a dish, such as adding blue cheese to a house salad or leaving out certain ingredients, they happily took care of it. On many other cruise lines the waiter is puzzled or hesitant to get special requests that cannot just be picked up in the kitchen line, so the easy going and helpful waiters on this Princess cruise impressed me.
Also, the sales staff is not very pushy, which is nice. You can get a drink when you wish, but they don't pester you. I even purchased photos from the ship and the travel video, something I have very, very seldom done, just that good and professional. They did have about the best selection of Citizen Eco-drive watches I have ever seen aboard a ship, and as I love eco-drive watches, I found one I purchased.
The following is a chronological review of our trip.
Embarkation was a snap. We arrived at the check in around 12:15, handed over our luggage, sat waiting after check-in for about 4 minutes before they called our group to board. We were on, had access to our room, and were snacking at the buffet by 12:40...just great. Even our luggage arrived speedily; by 1:30 when we returned from the buffet, both our bags we waiting outside our door.
The ports were so different than any other we have visited. The towns are small, filled with tourist shops, but no pressure, great tourist info centers, lots of sales for tours and excursions off the ship, and even our cell phones worked on our network! Of course, there is state sales tax, lol!
We had rain in Ketchikan, so we simply walked around, bought a few things, then took the city bus and toured around on it to see things. They do have a free shuttle into town from your parking berth, but the walk (depending on exactly where you dock, of course), is less than a mile (3/4 mile for us at most). We used the shuttle into town, and the city bus route (fare is $1 each) went right past our ship, so we just got off there.
We took a private whale watching excursion in Juneau with Harv and Marv...absolutely amazing day! Saw dozens of whales, including up to 11 working in a group to feed. Even had a humpback calf sound right near our small boat...beautiful and truly, truly visually stunning!
Nice day in Skagway, partly cloudy, but barely even needed a jacket, just a polo shirt for most of our walking around. Many people took the White Mountain pass train, but we just walked around town and visited the shops. Found a needlecraft/quilting shop with definitely one-of-kind designs and kits; fabulous and very fair pricing.
Also discovered that all the Caribbean gem shops bring their new stock into these Alaskan ports for the summer, then distribute the remaining items throughout their Caribbean stores (along with additional new stock, certainly) for the fall and winter months. As such, stores such as Diamond International, Princess jewelers, etc... all have amazing items and fully stocked stores in each port. If you visit with the personnel, you will find they are in Alaska from their parent stores in St. Maarten, Roatan, Cozumel, St, Thomas, St. Kitts, etc.. great fun visiting with them and looking through the lovely babbles.
Whittier is TINY, so disembarkation was absolutely a snap. We excited around 8:00 am and were alone getting off the ship, and maybe a few dozens people waiting in the designated areas of the port's terminal for their tour/transport to board. Our bags were sitting there waiting for us. We had arranged for an independent vendor/bus to travel to ANC airport and we left on time and found the trip smooth and interesting with much to see and great narration enroute.
So, the overall verdict is a definite thumbs up for Princess and the Coral Princess. We will definitely look for more sailings and itineraries with Princess, which has now made my top 3 cruise lines along with Azamara and Celebrity, placing Princess ahead of RCCL.
