If you want to buy a new music player, I think Sony NWZ-B162F is the best choice. You know that Sony walkman always makes high quality music player. You can choose your favorite colour and what I like most is the white one. But I bought a blue one because of the short of supply.

Long-Lost Fragments of Colossi Found in Luxor
Tuesday, February 18, 2014
LUXOR, EGYPT—Egyptologists have uncovered missing quartzite blocks that once belonged to the Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that once stood at the entrance of his mortuary temple in Luxor. The blocks had been missing from the colossi since an earthquake in 27 B.C. devastated the temple. The missing pieces included fragments of the arm, belt, and skirt of one of the colossi, as well as parts of the royal crown and foundation stone for both statues. Aly El-Asfar, head of the Ministry of State for Antiquities' ancient Egyptian section, told Al-Ahram that the discovery will enable archaeologists to reconstruct the colossi.

Placed my first ever order after a friend told me about the site, a dress for an event coming up very soon.... 14 - 21 days delivery now overdue and I'm getting worried. They took the money out of my account when I ordered and still no sign of the dress and I can't really afford to buy an alternative dress until I get the money back! Like everyone else I've just received standard email responses. Just how long does it take to sort out website bugs. I've never known anything like this. Avoid.
Written on: 07/11/2013
Hallo, I have the same experience. I still wait for my orders about 8 weeks ago, no reaction of my emails. I do not get a refund of my return... no phone lines, no email .... horrible. It started with the new site.... DO NOT BUY THERE!!!!

The most commonly played game both at land based casinos and online casinos is slots. One of the main reasons that slots are so popular is because they are so easy to play. To begin play slots one should visit a casino or download free software. A casino gambling machine has different names in America, in Britain and in Australia. There are three or more reels which spin when you push a button. Some people use the term one-armed bandits to call slots. Originally they were operated by a lever on the side of the machine instead of a button on the front panel. Both a legacy lever and the button are still used in many modern machines. Slot machines have a currency detector. The coin or money inserted to play are validated by it. The most popular gambling method in casinos is slot machines. About 70 percent of the average casino's income come from it. 30 percent of the profits from gambling machines come from problem gamblers. A specific slot machine exists in Las Vegas. People call it "Wheel of Fortune". It is themed to the TV game show Wheel of Fortune. Only when a person inserts coins, cash, or a bar-coded paper ticket into a designated slot on the machine can he start playing. To activate the machine a lever or button are used. To win money from the machine is the aim of the game. It is possible if the symbols on mechanical reels or on a video screen match. The symbols are brightly colored and can be easily recognized. For example, there are images of fruits, simple shapes such as bells, captaincookss, or hearts. There is a variety of winning combinations of symbols in most games. Cash or some other sort of value is paid to the player when a combination according to the rules of the game. You can find different kinds of gambling slot machines. Video poker machines are the most popular. The multi-line slots become more popular now. They have more than one pay line. Reel slots commonly have three or five pay lines. You can see 9, 15, 25, or even 100 different pay lines in video slots. Video slots have a theme in their basis. They have graphics and music based on popular entertainers or TV programs. The higher the amount bet is, the higher the payout will be. The way payouts are calculated is the main differences between video slots and reel slots. On a reel slot, it is to the player's advantage to play with the maximum number of coins available. It is recommended to play as many individual lines as possible on video slots. The main feature of modern slot machines is that they are more complicated. Players are allowed to accept winnings as credits in most of them. They may be "spent" on additional spins. New slot machines have been introduced recently. They are commonly known as "multi-denomination". Multi-denomination slot machine has a list of options from which the player chooses the value of each credit wagered. The number of credits the player receives in exchange for the cash inserted is calculated by the machine. Some casinos take advantage of a concept commonly known as "tokenization". According to it one token buys more than one credit. A tokenized slot machine automatically calculates the number of credits the player receives in exchange for the token inserted. Then it displays the amount of available credits to the player. If a player wants to collect his credits the number of credits will be divided on the value of one token and the result will be returned to the patron. The term "residual credits" is used to denote a remainder. It is not allowed to be collected.

The embarkation and disembarkation was done perfectly without any wait time. Well done. The ship was probably sold out but we did not check with the captain on the number of passengers. The ship was always crowded no matter where we went. Dining room, promenade, buffet, any public area, it did feel like a holiday cruise, but somehow I wished it could be a little bit less crowded. The Promenade is beautifully decorated. Dining room food was good, although not exceptional. However, service was extremely good with a Caribbean team (our waiter is from Trinidad and our assistant waitress is from Dominican). Considering we had a group of ten and a large table is usually hard to serve, they really did a great job and we had very good dining experience. RCCL's ice show was always a sold out show so we were asked to obtain ticket on the first night. One member of our group went and waited in line for more than 30 minutes to get our tickets, why could they not let us do the booking on the interactive TV? Or let us reserve our seat online like the other RCCL ships (Allure and Oasis)? Due to the ice show time at 7 pm and our dinner time at 6 pm, we made a special request a day before for an expedited dinner service. We were extremely pleased with the service we got and we did not even miss the dessert and still on time to watch the ice show, well done.
There were very good musicians onboard, we like the Latin band Mambo Cliente and the Filipino quartet called New Version the most. Unfortunately they were assigned to two very tiny lounges to play most of the time. Mambo Cliente played at the Aquarium Lounge the most while The New Version Quartet played at the Dizzy Lounge the most. Both lounges were too small to accommodate the number of passengers who wanted to dance.
NYE celebration: well done with all the novelty and free champagne, the Promenade was flooded with people, luckily no stampede....
The less than perfects: dining room food quality was less than perfect, it was good, but we felt the cut back. Fish served were not top quality fish, meat dishes were good, but again, did not feel like AAA grade. The buffet food was even less appealing and always crowded. Not enough server to clean the table (since we just got off the Emerald Princess's xmas cruise, that was such a cultural shock to have such a huge difference in the food and service quality). They freq made public announcement asking passengers to leave their table when they were done so other passengers can have a seat. That was so annoying and prob a major design fraud.
Activities: outdoor activities were plentiful, but limited to weather as the ship sails out from Bayonne. Indoor activities were limited, we were surprised there were no line dance nor dance lessons on the last sea days, making the last day so boring as we were not shoppers. It seems RCCL is always pushing people to buy buy buy. I did buy some stuff from the stores, including two pairs of costume earrings. When I noticed one pair was defected, I took it back and wanted a refund (right away on the same day), I was told they cannot do a refund, and I had to buy something else more expensive. I did, but the clerk was doing a refund first for the defected item (then why was I told no refund) and then another sales slip for the new item.
Internet : A major disappointment, first of all, we cannot have wifi in the cabin, we have to be in the public rooms where it was a hot spot to do our emails and internet surfing. Secondly, its slow (OK, its slow probably on other ships too) and to log on you need at least 2-3 minutes, if you realized you were not getting the internet, you wasted 2-3 minutes time (at 65 cents a minute). I bought a package (at 55 cents a minute), and two occasions, before my package ran out, I was charged additional money for internet access. I had to go to Guest Service, line up, and talked to an agent so he can revert the charge. That was such a waste of time. Lastly, on the last day, from mid afternoon, internet service was off and on often. From 10 pm, virtually no internet service. I still had over $12 worth of internet time left, which I intended to use on the last day to check weather and possible flight delays. Guess what, no internet service on the disembarkation day neither, what a scam. I wrote a complain letter, brought it to the Guest Service, and was only told that it will be handed to the appropriate department.
Earlier in the cruise, we wrote a suggestion to have the Maharajas lounge to house the two music groups (Mamba Cliente, and New Version Quartet) for listening and dancing pleasure as the other lounges (Aquarium, Dizzy) were too small to accommodate people who wanted to enjoy the music and did a little bit of dancing. Someone called us the last day from Guest Relation, and asked if I were the one who wrote the suggestion, I said yes, and that was it. No action was taken, no additional words were said, so what was the point of having us writing comments?
Port: Bayonne really has nothing to offer, its difficult to get to, and nothing to do if you want to go out after registration.
Port: Port Canaveral has nothing to offer at the terminal, you either have to take a taxi to a beach or join an excursion

• Subcutaneous wound-tissue oxygen (Psqo2) tension in eight volunteers fell rapidly and significantly in response to smoking, and remained low for 30 to 50 minutes. Sham "smoking" had no effect. These data suggest that a typical "pack-per-day" smoker experiences tissue hypoxia during a significant portion of each day. The degree of hypoxia found in these subjects has been associated with poor wound healing in animal and human studies. The onset and duration of tissue hypoxia paralleled the well-established plasma pharmacokinetics of nicotine. This suggests that peripheral vasoconstriction, induced by the adrenergic effects of nicotine, may contribute to the observed decrease in Psqo2.

Much better than buying online as to a greater extent you know what you're buying. Not entirely though as no-one in the shop knows much about their products and they're not going to tell you what's wrong with them anyway. (I chose an Epson XP-635 printer over a Canon MG5750 because the latter's input tray stuck out 6" only to find when I'd bought the Epson that it's output tray stuck out likewise!). No-one was going to tell me!! I reserved the product online then went and collected it (once… Read Full Review

Never again will I set foot inside PC World. I took my Dell Computer in a few weeks ago to my local shop for repair. They ask you to sign a form stating that you might lose some data and that you agree to it, some data maybe but not the entire software on the machine which included Norton Security. Nearly 2 weeks later they phone to say that the machine was now working, great I thought. Their idea of a repair is to wipe the computer whereby you have nothing but a shell.

I agree with above, then when my new computer failed after a month and went back to the shop for repair I was given a reference and a phone number where I could chase up the repair. After a week I called the number, got through to the call centre and was told that it would take another week as they had to wait for the part. Not great as I use this for work. A week later I called again and was told that they were still waiting for the part. An hour later I was put through to someone - apparently a manager, who agreed that it might be faster just to replace the computer, but that the old one would have to be sent back to the store first. That would take until the following Wednesday. The following Wednesday I phoned again, to be told that no one had emailed the repair team so the computer had not yet left them. The girl I spoke to said she would put me through to the manager. After being on hold for about 10 mins the phone was picked up by a lad who knew nothing about my case. At that point I threw a bit of a tantrum and demanded to speak to someone who could help. He said he didn't know who the manager was, he was unable to put me through to anyone more senior, that he couldn't explain my story to anyone that he did put me through to and called me sir. He eventually said he couldn't help me so I gave up.
So I still have no computer PC world effectively have my money for nothing and there is nothing I can do about it. o and I have a Complaint reference, but that doesn't seem to do anything either. Not quite sure where to go now, but never again from these guys - the last computer I bought several years ago almost exactly the same thing happened!!

Introducing iNTELLIDRIVE
Powerful retrofitable, parallel hydraulic drive-train assist system provides a simple solution to reduce operating costs:
Significantly reduce brake wear
Reduce fuel consumption
Reduce engine NOx emissions
ROI in less than 3 years!
Maintenance Reduction
92% Pollution Reduction
Learn How To Start Cutting Fleet Costs
For heavy vehicles that operate in short, successive stop-and-start cycles, SES offers the hydrostatic regenerative braking system iNTELLIDRIVE™ for the recovery of braking energy. With the iNTELLIDRIVE system, pressurized hydraulic fluid provides braking torque, working to slow/stop the vehicle, similar to an engine retarder, thus saving wear on the service brakes. The kinetic energy created in stopping the vehicle moving vehicle is not eliminated during braking, but is captured and converted into reusable energy as it is stored in hydro-pneumatic piston accumulators. During acceleration, the captured energy is directed back into the driveline in the form of a boost, reducing the load on the combustion engine and reducing fuel consumption.
Energy Storage
Storing Braking Energy
The hydraulic axial piston unit is coupled to the mechanical drive train by a gearbox. When braking, the axial piston unit converts kinetic energy to potential energy by pumping hydraulic fluid into the pressure accumulator; the pressure in the accumulator rises, slowing and stopping the vehicle.
Energy Release
Releasing Stored Energy
Upon acceleration, the pressurized hydraulic fluid drives the axial piston unit, which now works like a motor. Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, giving the vehicle a boost. The axial piston unit remains coupled to the mechanical drive train until the pressure accumulator is discharged or the overall strategy for the maximum saving of fuel dictates otherwise. A complete discharge may not necessarily occur. The iNTELLIDRIVE manifold controls the filling and discharge cycle. Depending on the system, the pressure accumulator is safeguarded either mechanically or electronically against excessive pressure. The electronic iNTELLIDRIVE control unit regulates the iNTELLIDRIVE using a smart-controls strategy based on wheel speed, temperature, mission profile, geography, vehicle load, etc. In "standard" drive mode, the system is decoupled.
The regeneration of braking energy through SES' hydraulic boost technology is a useful way to optimize the total efficiency of a mechanical drive train. The greatest optimization potential is realized in cyclical driving operation (frequent braking and acceleration). The cycles encountered in refuse collection applications are especially suitable.
For applications with high power conversion and only very low quantities of energy, hydraulic solutions are superior to other solutions because of the high power density.
