"We have several guys who are already getting recruited pretty hard right now," White said. "We also have some young guys who we're going to count on a lot this year and they should be some really productive guys for us.
"We're going to be pretty strong on defense and on offense we have a lot of good players coming back, but the big key for us on that side will be developing a quarterback."
White started by talking about the offensive prospects and most notably, what is probably his biggest prospect…
OL Abdul Kuyateh – "He came here as a defensive lineman and we converted him. He went to West Georgia University and they tried to make him play defensive line and he didn't want to do that so he came to us and we converted him and he's become just a really good offensive lineman for us.
"The scary thing is he's still sort of learning the position. Last year was his first year on offense so he's just going to get better and better.
"He's got that nasty attitude that you love in an offensive lineman and he loves the weight room and works really hard and is very, very coachable. Coming from the defensive side, he has the athleticism you want for a guy to pull and get out on running plays and still has very good strength.
"He'll graduate in December and will have two years to play two."
OL Nestor Cruz – "We have him at tackle right now, but we may move him inside to center because that's the only starter we lost and we think Nestor could really solidify that spot for us.
"He was All-Conference last year and he's got a great work ethic and he's an outstanding athlete and he's really smart and has a good football I.Q."
WR Juawain Spurlock – "He had an exceptional spring for us. He's gotten so much stronger. He's still a little on the small side (6-0, 170), but he runs really well and he was a former quarterback in high school so that really helps him in reading defenses and makes him just an excellent player."
WR Jahmeel Hobson – "He started out at New Mexico State and had a grade issue so he came to us and we're really happy he's going to be here for us.
"He's really quick. He's about 5-11, 175 and he's got great speed. He ran the fastest time for us ever at the school. He put up back to back 4.31 and 4.32 and there were some four-year schools standing right next to me timing as well and they were pretty impressed with him as well. It was pretty amazing to see it in person."
S Maurice Harvey – "Mo is the cousin of a player I had here back in 1990 (Ben Jenkins) and he called me and said he wanted to come out and play out here.
"He went to Astronaut High School in Titusville, Florida and was a very good player there, but we thought it would take him a year to learn the free safety position before he could actually contribute and start. Well, we were wrong. He came right in and was really impressive and he just took the starting role from pretty much the second he stepped on campus.
"He's really aggressive and he likes going after the ball. He won't play the receiver, he plays the ball and wants to take it away rather than be a big-hitter back there. He can still be a good hitter, but he'd rather take the ball away and give it back to the offense.
"He's a real low-maintenance guy and just a real good kid. He was All-Conference in 2006 as well."
LB Andrew Dove – "We play a 3-5-3 defense and we really need an excellent guy right in the middle of that defense and Andrew certainly was that for us last year. If you only watched our league games, you wouldn't have seen him play for us last year because he had a calcification under his patella tendon so we got that worked on and he wasn't able to play in the second half of the season, but he's an outstanding linebacker and player.
"He committed to Bethune Cookman out of high school and didn't like it there so he came to us in late July, I mean it was like a week before camp, and he just walked in and asserted himself and he started the first five games which, to me, is really impressive.
"He's 6-1, 225 and he can really run and hit. He's a very aggressive player and he's already got a lot of D-1 interest. After Abdul and Mo, he's probably our next guy with the most D-1 attention."
DE Fred James – "He's 6-3, 260 and he started four or five games for us last year. He came to us from Florida and was a referral from a friend of the family (Kerry Brown) who played for me back in 1992.
"He'll play strongside end for us and we got a lot of production out of him and we expect him to be even more productive for us next year."
DT Terrance Montgomery – "He just arrived this spring, but he's going to be a guy we count on a lot. With our defense, we need a big guy right in the middle of the line and he's going to be a guy for us with his size (6-2, 295) that makes a lot of plays and plays an important role for us.
"We lost Ricky Hope to graduation this year, so we'll sort of be a nose tackle by committee this year, but Terrance is a guy we really expect a lot out of.
"He's got a really interesting story. He signed with West Virginia out of high school – he's from Pittsburgh – but he didn't qualify, so he went into the military reserve and now he's married and has a kid. I'm really interested to see what he has to offer on the field."

Oct. 7, 2012
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The No. 5 Virginia field hockey team shut out its second opponent in as many days, defeating No. 19 New Hampshire, 7-0, on Sunday at Turf Field.
The Cavaliers had two good looks at the goal early, but shots from Rachel Sumfest (So., Lewisburg, Pa.) three minutes into the game and Carissa Vittese (Jr. Cherry Hill, N.J.) a minute later both sailed high. Elly Buckley (Jr., Scarborough Perth, Australia) broke the 0-0 deadlock nine minutes in. Buckley, positioned in the center of the circle, received a pass from Michelle Vittese (R-Sr., Cherry Hill, N.J.) sailed it into the cage.
After the first goal, both teams played very evenly for the next twenty minutes. The Cavaliers took a 2-0 lead when Sumfest, strategically positioned at the right corner of the goal, tipped in a pass from Phoebe Willis (Sr., Fredericksburg, Va.) with five minutes left in the half.
The Cavaliers drew a foul with 30 seconds left in the first half, setting up a penalty corner opportunity as time expired. On the perfectly executed corner, Paige Selenski (R-Sr., Shavertown, Pa.) inserted the ball, and then rushed over to the left post to get in position to take a pass from Buckley at the top of the circle. Selenski's shot was on target to extend the lead to 3-0.
The second half was almost all Virginia, with the Cavaliers taking 15 shots to New Hampshire's five. Sumfest scored her second goal of the game, taking a quick cross from Michelle Vittese and knocking it in seven minutes into the period. Vittese scored a goal of her own making, dribbling the ball around the defense, making her way to the left post, and pushing it past the keeper to put UVa up 5-0 five minutes later.
The Cavaliers final two goals, one by Elizabeth Hanks (Jr., Hummelstown, Pa.) and one by Jess Orrett (So., Somerset, England), came in the final ten minutes of the game. Both goals came after a missed shot deflected off the keeper's pads with Hanks and Orrett getting control of the ball and flicking it into the goal.
"Today, I think we were able to move the ball well and create more than one option," said head coach Michele Madison. "To play back-to-back games that composed and that structured was really good to see."
The victory, which improved Virginia's record to 13-2 (2-0 ACC), was the second shut out of the weekend for the squad. The Cavaliers defeated Yale, 4-0, on Saturday afternoon.
"We are really good at being able to get our heads down and really concentrating during the games," said starting goalkeeper Jenny Johnstone (So., Paisley, Scotland).
Johnstone, who did not face a shot against Yale, had three saves against New Hampshire. All three Virginia goalies played in the New Hampshire game with Rebecca Holden (Fr., Fishing Creek, N.J.) and Amanda Crider (Sr., Vienna, Va.) both seeing time in the second half, but neither registering a save. New Hampshire's goalkeeper Calie Tarbell had 12 saves.
It was the fifth time this season the Cavaliers have shut out their opponent. It was the first time since the two opening games of the 2010 season that Virginia had back-to-back games without surrendering a goal.
The Cavaliers, who are now a perfect 8-0 this season at home, have outscored opponents 51-11 at Turf Field. The victory also extended the team's win streak to eight games.
Sumfest had two goals, giving her a season total of 10. Buckley's goal was her 15th of the season. Selenski scored her ACC-leading 21st of the season. Hanks' goal was her third of the season. Orrett's goal was her first of the year.
The Cavaliers will play just one game next week, heading to Chapel Hill to face No. 2 North Carolina on Saturday, Oct. 13 at 1 p.m.
"North Carolina is one of the top teams in the country right now," Madison said of the upcoming matchup between the top two teams in the ACC. "They can score like we can score. It is going to be a battle and I think the winner is going to be the team that makes the least amount of errors."
The game will be streamed live online on ESPN3.

Customer Reviews
I really wanted to like this one
I love farming games don't get me wrong. Harvest moon, iPad apps, Facebook games, etc. etc. I've pretty much tried them all. This one had the most realistic look to it of them all and it intrigued me the most, finally after it waiting on my wish list for months I have in and tried it. Wish I didn't. I only fiddled around with it for a half hour max but that was enough. Harvesting takes forever. Hooking up the different tools to your tractor is a nightmare, that took forever to figure out. Even learning how to drive the tractor around took awhile to get the hang of. There's no tutorial mode, only a guidebook which isn't very helpful unless you are an actually farmer and know the farm machinery lingo for all the different tools. Wanted to like it badly, but the game doesn't make it helpful enough to learn how to play. Or efficient enough use of my time. Farming doesn't have to be boring, and in many games its not. But holy crap this game made it dull.
New update
I love the game, I play it everyday. Just wish there was a round bailer, and a gooseneck trailer way you can haul your tractors and equipment on to place to place, would like if there was a tractor with a front loader on it with a bucket and a hay spear, would love if there was a sprayer and wish you could go to another city to buy more land or something like that. I hope the next update has some really cool stuff on it hopefully it can have some of this stuff. If it did I would rate this as the best game ever!!!!!
Settings problems
Great app don't get me wrong but a couple weeks ago I changed my horizontal tilt and my gyroscope and I turned off my gyroscope but it keeps turning back on even when I save the game with no gyroscope it does that and every time I exit the app and close it go back in it has the gyroscope on when I know I turned it off but it only changes it when I close the app

text: Review Content Worth the price I live in a noisy condo complex and had trouble falling and staying asleep. Since receiving the SSTS, Ive had a full nights sleep every night. I highly recommend the Hawaiian Surf "channel" Id would purchase this product again. The Sleep Sound Therapy System helps me to fall asleep and stay asleep longer, as well as block out noise/sounds both in and outdoors that would otherwise prevent me from doing so. I particularly appreciate the various "sound" choices that are available, as well as the opportunity to utilize an AM/FM radio. It is easy to program and see the time/programs, since the face lights up. I sleep soooo much better now Able to change the sounds, remembers last setting used Love date and day of week, easy to read Good quality/Works great I really like this product. I use it while reading, relaxing and turn it on before sleeping. The variety of soothing sounds is great. You can put it on timer or just have it on all night. Seems to be good quality which is why I was willing to pay this much. Other products seem to give out in such a short time. THE BEST PRODUCT ON THE MARKET It gives me a great nights sleep This is my 2nd one of these I purchased this product originally becuase I needed a clock radio with alarms that had white noise. I really like that this has radio presets and it is the only one I could find anywhere that has presets. I have the white noise on all night to try and block our the noise from my upstairs neighbors and this works better than any other product I have used. I really wish it just had white noise and not all the other sounds and combinations, because I think that is why it is more expensive. The reason I had to purchase a new one is because the speakers are starting to go out on it, sometimes if I have the volume too loud it turns into static noise. When I was searching for a replacement product that had all the features I wanted this was the only product I found. I will buy this again if I need to. THERE IS NO BETTER! Not for me, anyway. Hoping they can build the next improvement into my head. Works and looks great! Versatile alarm clock radio. Great features. What I was looking for When my 20+ year old Sound Soother sputtered to a halt, I despaired of finding a replacement. I wanted dual alarms, a battery that would power the alarm in a power outage. Other products were reviewed poorly: too bright, too loud, too confusing. This one is perfect. Once set up, it is easy to operate. I like the count-down nap timer. The "buzzer" is pleasant-sounding. A sound for everyone I have only used the sleep sound system for 2 weeks. I spent the first 8 days trying to find the perfect sound for me. So far I am happy with the bio-sync sound. It is calming, it does not fade in and out with volume and most of all...I do notice the repeat of the tract sound. I enjoy it so much that if I do wake up, I reach for the on button to start it up again! The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because many of the calming water sounds have annoying bird sounds in the background that constantly repeat the exact same sound every 15 seconds or so. I really was looking forward to sleeping with water sounds but there are just too many distracting background sounds. Excellent Product Excellent product with qualtiy radio and sound features. Wife liked it so much I purchased one for her. Even my husband likes it! After doing research on the benefits of Sound Therapy, I reviewed the options on the internet and then back to Sharper Imagine where my previous Alarm was purchased. At first I was worried the design would clash with our style as the picture shown looks rather odd and unattractive. The price also had me wondering if I had paid too much for an alarm clock with sound music! When the product arrived my husbands first comments were, oh I like that! The product was smaller in size in a good way and the functions on the device were strong and sturdy. The only thing I expected but didnt get was the number of sounds. There are 25 basic sounds and the ability to "mix" sounds where you can overlay a few sounds of which I didnt enjoy... I am looking for sound therapy while I sleep and song birds/ Loons/ Fog Horns etc are not what I consider relaxing/ sleeping music. The conclusion is I am glad I made the purchase, paid the high price and enjoy the basic sounds! Good buy! Loving it! I use all functions. The radio sound is better than average. Preset sounds are great in the day as well as at night. The lighted "time of day" is very visible yet soft enough not to disturb sleep. The buttons are easy to use without turning on a light if you need to adjust the sound at night. Have not hooked up the IPhone or Ipad yet, but am excited to know that this is possible. It is ok for what is intended It does the job I love this machine! I love the variety of sounds and that I also functions as an alarm clock and am/fm radio. sleep sound therapy system sleep, clock, alarm sound is great a little confusing on getting started Everything I wanted and more Bought this for the sounds and the fact it had so many features. I have not been disappointed. It receives both AM and FM well, better than the small stereo system it is replacing. The selection of sounds is great and very soothing. My Ipod plugs in seamlessly. It takes up minimal space at my bedside. Well designed. Had to return item Disappointed that there were several dysfunctional parts of this sound machine, right out of the box. The date/time stamp read 2011, so Im guessing that this item has sat on the shelf for many years. Ive been a Sharper Image customer for many years. Unhappy with this unprofessional service. The Best! If you want the best white noise machine - this is the unit to get! It is a little expensive, but I think well worth the money. It actually fills your room with sound because it has 3 speakers (one which is a subwoofer). The alarm clock is great and I can play my iPhone music through it too. The sound mixing is pretty cool too - thunderstorm is amazing, ocean surf - just like the real thing. good buy had one before that lasted 15 years, love it helps us sleep, then wakes us up in the morning.Hope this is as good. Let you know in 15 years. GoodNight Sleep Good sound choices. Actual sound quality is great compared to all other sound machines Ive tried. Clock dims enough to be seen but not keep you awake. I wish it had a remote. After using it for a while sleep is great but a remote would be nice. Cost is high, but others sound about as good as a cell phone used as a speaker phone. great product This is the fist sound therapy system ive heard that sounds realistic! Lots of choices. Was dissapointed it didnt have a waterfall option. Overall very happy with the purchase. Sleep Soundly Out of the box, I was disappointed the plug that goes to the outlet is large and bulky. I had to remove the nightlight from the other socket to plug in. On the good side the plug rotates giving the plug some flex-ability. I look forward to restful nights. So Far So Good We bought this for our newborn babies. We have had it on 24/7 for a few weeks, and all is working well. The sound quality is great. I found it pretty easy to use in basic modes. But, the advanced features do not seem intuitive. I will try and update this review, once I have used it more. I will say, however, I like it enough that I am now ordering one for my mother. A top of the line sleep aide. The product was well made with excellent speakers and clear directions. The price was somewhat high, but I felt that I got what I paid for. Exactly what I was looking for! Very easy to set up. Radio receiver excellent. Use sleep timer for radio / sound sooothers every night--also simple to use. Sound sooothers are natural and wonderful. Back lighting is 3-way adjustable, and NOT too bright for sleeping. Would buy this again. The sound quality is five star! I use this daily and love it. Doesnt play sounds in power outage or when unplugged I bought this as a backup for my iPod Touch system thats attached to a FiiO headphone amp and a PillowSonic under-pillow dual speaker. I have severe tinnitus and must hear sounds under the pillow to sleep. When power goes out I dont sleep, so I wanted a sound unit that runs on batteries. I thought this did, but only the clock runs on batteries when the powers out. The sounds dont play at all on batteries alone when unplugged or the power is out. It didnt work long It worked a few times and then no sounds Serves a purpose but not mine We live at an intersection with too many motorcycles. We wanted to take the radio from room to room depending on where we were to block out road noise. Must use two hands to carry (no handle); must reset clock and settings each time (maybe different if we had batteries in it); cant easily flip to various radio stations like we can with Sirrius. With AM/FM radio, clarity was not always crystal clear; however, when using the various sounds....SUPERB! They were clear, relaxing, and mesmerizing. I will look for a similar model but this one does not meet all my needs. Cant Beat the Sleep! This is a replacement for a 20 year old Smarter Image Sound Soother that finally gave up after nightly use. The new model has better sound dynamics and the ability to combine sounds to suit the user. After a week of nightly use, I would say it is a very adequate replacement. The ultimate sleep sound system We use the product to relax and throughout the nights sleep. GREAT GIFT FOR EVERYONE This is a great product for people who have trouble sleeping. This product has so many sounds and mixes. Down side is light adapter sold separately Liked it so much I bought 2 more I got this because, after caring for an ailing husband who awoke at all hours of the night, my sleep patterns were in bad shape. I tried everything except sleep medication because I didnt want to take drugs. With this machine, it has taken me less than a week to begin sleeping through the night. Its so good that I bought one for my daughters room and one for my guest room. I live within earshot of the freeway and railroad so this will help my guests sleep through the night despite train whistles and truckers down-shifting. Sound quality I was hoping to replace my older clock radio that had a broken CD player. I am not completely happy with the sound quality of the radio - even if I adjust the treble/bass it doesnt sound that great. I fall asleep to the radio sometimes and I can not lower the volume enough - even on "1" it is still too loud. The sound effects can be adjusted low enough and most of them are relaxing. A few are, in my opinion, not that great, such as the train or heartbeat. The unit overall is a good size for a bedside table and the illumination is dim enough for night. As mentioned earlier, my negative review is for the radios sound quality. perfect sound I was looking for a specific sound and this machine has it. I would like it for travel, but it is too big for that. I also think it is very expensive. Hope this one lasts a long long time. Love it! This product is great! I researched long and hard before finally choosing, and this is it. It is very easy to use, and the sounds are spectacular. I go to sleep with 60 of ocean waves (can choose 30, 60 or 90) and turn it back on when I get up in the morning so that my 2nd shift husband will lull back to sleep while I get ready for work. The alarm begins softly, before getting louder, so I can get it turned off before it gets loud. The sounds are taped from nature and are fabulous! Love it....obviously. Best piece of equipment for the money. Low cost with quality sound plus two alarms. A must for travelers and light sleepers I bought this for a friend. She made a long, driving trip and used the white noise feature to block out sounds at various motels she stayed at. The selection of sounds is very good and she had many a restful nights sleep. Awesome sound machine! Ive used this product every night since purchasing. Previously, I had another brand that I knew from the first night would not work. This product has many different sounds, a 90 minute timer, excellent dual speakers and important to me.....the backlight can be seen during the day but turned way down or even off for night sleeping. I cannot recommend this product enough. I love it. Well worth the cost. Your problem of Chronic Insomnia cured ! My sleep machine is set on Ocean...but I use the rainstorm and white noise too. There are so many choices you will assuredly find the one best for you. The dual alarms are a real plus;). Even the lighted dial is adjustable for up to three intensitys so as not to keep you awake...real subtle light tailored to not waking you up during the night. Amazing machine! A must for day sleepers...night shift workers...insomniacs....even new pet owners as it provides a constant soothing sound for puppies and kitties. I do not regret the purchase of this pro I use this product to go to sleep at night, and as an alarm in the morning. The subwoofer, although compact and adequate, lacks the oomph of the earlier model. That said I am pleased with the product; just wish that it had frog sounds. A little pricey but worth the money Good sound and easy to use with many nice options Love this The sounds are great. I love waking up to the gentle sounds and falling asleep to the relaxing soft sounds. Sleep Sound Therapy System Needs more sounds and the thunderstorm is not good. GREAT PRODUCT Well made product that has worked great for me for many years. Just bought my second one. Great Sound Machine The realistic sounds used for sleeping and meditation are the best I have found and I have been using similar sound machines for many years. The controls are also very helpful in being able to get to the exact sound wanted and the level of decible wanted as well Not as advertised. The digital display brightness at the highest setting was to dim and hard to see at any distance. Alarm at highest setting was not loud enough. Fantastic I was looking for an alarm clock that would awake me with different sounds. I hit the mother lode with this device. The sound quality is superior. The controls easy to understand. I had not planned to use the sleep therapy mode, but now Im a convert. This was not a gift. I had tried a few other products here, but had sent them back. This ones a keeper! sound sleep setting up the first time is a bit of a challenge but once you get it its all down hill after that Love it!!! Regarding the train sound... Would be more relaxing if recorded from outside train as it passes. Maybe some faint whistle sounds too. The current one is from inside the train, just behind the engine. Seems to tense me up instead of being relaxing. The raining sounds should sound like it is raining outside, not inside. Like how it would sound through the window. Great 3-D sound!! Clear and realistic. Cant tell where recording starts over. Less expensive systems are very obvious where they start over, and are not anywhere near as clear. Well worth the money!!! Sleeping in peaceful sounds... A great design! Very well thought out and functional! Answers all the needs hoped for at purchase!! This would make a great Christmas gift I bought this for my 12 yr. old granddaughter who has fibromyalgia. Now the white noise keeps her asleep and when she needs to relax she can listen to her favor sounds. I love it so much that I may buy one for myself, when I am in the kitchen cooking, or working in my office. The size allows it to be taken on vacation. Sleep sound therapy system I have been a avid sound machine user since they first came available. We use it on our night stand and sleep wonderfully! My old one is 14 years old and still works good, I just wanted a new one with updated sounds. I also have the first travel sound machine that this company offered, and it still works great, however the words have worn off with so much use. There is a noticeable difference In the quality of sounds available on this new machine. Overall I will choose this brand over any other that I have tested. I have and will continue to recommend this machine to anyone looking to purchase a machine that works as advertised. Rain i love it but it was a bit pricey Amazing sound! This sound machine helps me keep my 2 year old daughter asleep through the night! sound oasis model S-5000 I use it to enhance sleep, and to drown out outside noise. The woofer is far inferior to your previous model S1785, which I loved. Music to my ears I decided to go with this model after my other sleep sound machine stopped working. The subwoofer option is great. Being able to see the number for the volume is great; So far, I have been very happy with it. It is easy to program and being able to dim the backlight is a great feature as well. Could use more bass, but that is only a small flaw. Great sleep therapy! Great sound with sub-woofer. I like this product very much!! great product Really good sound with the ability to mix different sounds. Used in a therapuetic setting for relaxation and mindfulness. Lots of positive feedback from clients. It doesnt get any better than this jewell. I have traveled to different parts of the world. Being an outdoorsman, the sounds that this machine emulates are excellent. Makes me wish I was 40 years younger to relive those days. Excellent product I especially like the gradual decrease in the sound when timed out. I have tried several of these and this one is a keeper. Love it ~ love it! I love the variety of sounds the machine offers. Also the tone/bass enhancer allows the user to create a wonderful sound. A+ Worlds Best Alarm Clock & Sleep Machine I was searching for the Worlds Best alarm clock and I found it. I wanted a number of features: dual alarm, ascending alarm (starts very quietly and gradually gets louder), snooze timer and nap timer. It is VERY difficult to find all of these features on one unit. The Sound Oasis S-5000 has them ALL plus much more! It is also a sleeping aid. The built-in sounds help one to drift off into sleep. I rarely need this feature but when I do... it is great to have! The sound quality is the best that can be found on this type of product. I also much prefer the warm amber glow of the clock over the red, green or blue found on other products. It also has a calendar telling the date AND the day of the week, right under the time. Love that too, sometimes I do forget what day of the week it is. There is also a headphone jack and the ability (with an accessory) to gradually turn a lamp on brighter and brighter to mimic dawn. This would be great if you use blackout drapes in your room. The bottom line is th awesome product I have used Sharper Image sound soothers for years on a nightly basis at home and when traveling. I needed a fourth one for another bedroom and this particular model is an improvement over my other three. The sound quality is wonderful and the alarm clock is a convenient feature. The volume is sufficient to drown out other sounds when trying to fall asleep and stay asleep in the early morning when birds are chirping. Sound Oasis Machine Good product with many sound variations to choose from. Worth the $ Appreciate dual alarms, white noise effect, radio, battery backup Wonderful! The very best. I wake up several times each night. But with this product I just push the button and am lulled back to sleep. The sounds are absolutely amazing. The ocean and rain are so soothing. I just focus on them and drift off. Great product, it works It is very easy to set up and use. We prefer the rain sound options to aid in falling asleep. It does a good job of masking the building and street noise. Awesome! I have used this sound therapy machine every night since purchasing and I love it. The sounds are great and such a wide array of choices. They sound so authentic and soothing. I would highly recommend it to anyone with tinnutis or other sleeping issues. No more sleeples nights I have had this exact looking model for at least 10 yrs now. My wife bought it because I used to put on light music,which made my wife crazy. Having grown up in noisy city environment,I couldnt stay asleep once I moved out to the sticks because every car door that slammed or dog that barked woke me up,which may seem contradictory but its the sudden noises in a quiet environment.With the White Noise (or whatever sound you go with)becomes a constant & consistent noise that allows one to fall asleep & not be woken by that annoying dog barking or cat fight.My wife,who is very frugal (uh-hmm..shush,shes cheap & I couldnt believe that she would spend that much,which wasnt a heck of a lot cheaper that it is now but it still works like a charm & we just stick w/White Noise because the water based sounds made my wife have to pee...so White Noise it was & still is all these years later. I wanted to buy 1 for my son,but,as the old adage says,"A rolling stone gathe...nope..umm "With 6 you get eggroll" no,no,Oh yeah Soothing sounds help you relax Ive used a white noise machine for years to help me sleep better. This one has a great speaker system that I can set loud enough to block street traffic noise outside my bedroom window or set softly to relax me while Im reading. It even seems to help the animals relax. LOVE this machine. If it were less expensive, I would buy one for all of my friends and family. Love it! I bought this for myself and my husband to help us sleep better at night. It works! Turns out it also helps our 3 dogs sleep better, too, because they have been sleeping later in the morning which is nice. The sound quality is good. I love the multi features which is why I decided to purchase this model. We havent had much of an opportunity to use the iPod with it yet but I like the 3 preset radio buttons. I did have to read the manual to figure out some things that I thought would be simple, but after reading I was able to set the clock and keep the alarm set. Im happy with my purchase! Love it. Our first sound machine was a Sharper Image machine, after thirty years of using it every night, it finally "died". We were sad as we did not think we would find another quality sound machine like we had. We returned to Sharper Image and bought this model and love it. We will be back in touch in thirty years for another one! I can sleep again In the last 6 months I have had two total knee replacements and after the surgeries I developed a severe case of insomnia and did not want to take pills to help me sleep. I love to sleep when it rains or during thunderstorms. Listening to the rain sounds I fall asleep and stay asleep. Sleep Sound Therapy a Winner I use my Sleep Therapy Machine to relax while I read, just before falling asleep. The unit is easy to set up and use on a daily basis. I use my unit with good headphones, which really improves the effect of the various sounds. This machine is well made, and the designers have packed many useful features into a small space. I like the auxiliary sounds, such as the call of the loon, while listening to a stream or evening rain. Also, the AM and FM radio also comes in handy, and the simple antenna really pulls in stations, too. Highly recommended system. There is no better white-boise machine Ive spent a lotta hours on the Internet looking for a better white-noise machine. So far, this is it. Like it a lot, Sleep aid/ alarm Excellent for our needs The machine has a lot variation and seems well made. We used it right away and it helped with sleep patterns. Tinnitus Relief I am a tinnitus sufferer and the device allows me to select a sound that almost totally masks my tinnitus. Now I can relax and watch a movie again or read without any distractions. We Love It! We use this to help us fall to sleep. We lived on the waters edge on Maui for many years. The sound of the surf is perfect, and available with no seagulls! No gulls on Maui. Ahh, thank you..... Ultimate Sound Machine (right now) Good sounding radio/sound machine. I bought to help me fall asleep. I usually use wave type sounds and there is a big choice of those. I like that you can add a secondary sound to any of the primary choice sounds. Like seagulls to any of the wave choices. Speakers are okay. Decent sound, but not incredible. Very good volume control. I can play sounds loud or very soft. I wish alarm set button was a little larger. sounds menu nice; radio not! We enjoy the sounds and use it at bedtime. The radio has no reception, however. We get one fm station that we enjoy and only two others;am stations are nonexistant. Is this a common problem?

5This a spoiler! Posted by: dmight from: Princeton IN on Got this on a great sale, was looking at two others and this one beat the others out on specs and price. $299 for $450 monitor! Brought it home, setup was fast and easy, directions a bit confusing though, but not really needed all that much. Every single cable that could be needed was included with the monitor, every single one! Not so with the others I was looking at. Hookup was easy and when I turned the monitor on first, then the PC, things worked the way they should right then, no messing around looking for this or that or any changes or software needed with Windows 8.1. That was that. Great picture, nice acting touchscreen. The trick was, I remembered doing my research before going to get the monitor and remembered comments about cables not completely attached so when I did my setup, I checked and made sure all cables were completely inserted, didn't have the first problem. A little hint, turn the monitor on before turning the PC on when starting up. This way, Windows "sees" the monitor and loads the software needed. I'm pleased as can be with the monitor and the price. Speakers aren't anything to brag about, but they're in a flat screen monitor, can't expect a lot from them. Most who are into better sound from the PC will ad external speakers.

5My first touchscreen Posted by: Catfish45 from: Canyon Lake, Tx on This is my first touchscreen monitor and I love it. I was an early adopter of Windows 8 and tried touchpads and touch sensitive mice, but nothing compares to having an actual touchscreen. This monitor is made for 8.1 and windows recognized it right out of the box. My only complaint is the nut on the stand had to be loosened to get the stand to tilt. The instructions say it may be stiff and should click into place. There was no way it was going without loosening the nut. Overall I'm very satisfied with my purchase. Don't forget to check pricing on amazon as best buy will price match. I got this monitor for $100 cheaper than best buys retail price due to price matching.

4Great Deal Posted by: Gcortes from: on purchased this to go with my Windows 8 PC. It's really an amazing monitor and absolutely worthy of purchase. It is an IPS panel which is the reason why it's much more expensive than the typical TN panel that comprises most inexpensive LCD monitors. Because it is IPS, the viewing angles are fantastic. In addition, it has capacitive touch which makes Windows 8 really excellent to use. It can recognize up to 10 points of touch simultaneously, meaning that you can have 2 people using the screen at the same time, perhaps in a game. The screen is extremely responsive. Soon you'll be pinching to zoom in and out. Twirling your fingers to rotate a picture. Swiping to close programs or change programs. It really is like having a tablet on a nice big screen.

5Awesome display and makes Windows 8 Fun! Posted by: B3Bluesman from: Puyallup on This is my first experience with a large touchscreen monitor. Others have been laptops or tablets. This is different... Amazing. As a regular monitor, it is perfect in my opinion. The colors are vibrant and clear. Picture quality is amazing. Add the touchscreen feature and its downright FUN! I've had such a good time trying out software and old games. Not to mention all the new apps available with Windows 8. Suddenly it all makes sense. I strongly recommend this monitor. I'm a picky person and have a great deal of stress in buying new electronics. Often I'm hopeful that it will meet my hopes and expectations. Very often I'm left disappointed. This monitor has been nothing but exceptional and a complete pleasure to own. Purchase with confidence from Best Buy and know that you're going to have a really great experience with this new Acer touchscreen monitor!

5What A Beautiful Screen! Posted by: Techless from: on Wow, this screen is wonderful! The colors and text are sharp and clear. I love the fact that it is a touch screen! I hook it to my Surface Pro 3 and have full touch capability. Or, I can use it with my old desktop computer and enjoy the clearer images. I also like that you can use both VGA & HDMI connections, plus it has extra USB ports (2 of which are USB3). Best Buy had a great price on this monitor and shipped it to my door very quickly. If you are looking for a touch screen monitor this is definitely a great buy.

5Reccomended monitor Posted by: Rick from: on This is one of the better touchscreen monitiors you can buy. Works as advertised and a good value. I purchased two other brands and sent both back after using due to various reasons.

4Great monitor for the price Posted by: TechieGu from: Charlotte, NC on This is a really beautiful touch screen monitor. I'm using it with a Lenovo desktop computer. A couple points regarding the setup... First of all, when you set up the monitor you MUST use the USB cable that comes with it to connect it to your computer. There is one line that tells you to do this at the bottom of the User's Guide if you load up your CD and read it which I of course didn't do until I had problems... You will also use either the HDMI cable OR the VGA cable to connect to your computer. So 2 cables are required - not just one. I didn't realize this important fact so I had a nice dead monitor at first. Once I plugged in the USB cable it was "lights, camera, action" time! Another glitch I ran into which the manual doesn't discuss is that if you don't hear any audio, then perhaps your computer is defaulting to non-existent speakers instead of to the monitor speakers. I had that problem too. To fix that in my Windows 8.1 system, I had to change my default audio to be the monitor's speakers instead of the computer's speakers. I did this by running a search on "Manage Audio Devices". Once I took care of that I had good audio. Note that I said good audio - not great audio. I feel that the audio is rather low. I will probably end up installing a couple more speakers because I like loud speakers. I'm still thrilled with this monitor and highly recommend it. It is sleek and modern and I loooove the touchscreen. Note: I am using it with the HDMI cable and have a dedicated graphics board in my computer with 2GB dedicated ram for the monitor. One other important point that the manual doesn't tell you is that there IS a power switch - it is tucked away on the bottom right SIDE of the slender glass monitor. I found it by accident. It isn't shown in any diagrams and I didn't realize it even had a power switch until I accidentally pressed it. I hope that the above information helps someone because it took me hours to figure out all these little crucial details which are not plainly spelled out in the manual. I'm brand new to current hardware and Windows 8.1 so none of this was intuitive to me. My old system was 8+ years old and used XP. I'm happy to be in the 21st century now!

5Great price for a HD ten point touch screen Posted by: codepoet from: on I been using this 23in monitor for over four months now and had no issues with this product. I hook up my laptop full HD HDMI output and the other input I hook up my Sony Blu-ray player that I also bought at BestBuy also at a "Great price". I watch movies, play video games, and computer usage etc... Great quality at a great price. Has built in speaker which is good for an extra speaker surround sound. I love the fact it has 3 USB ports since I have a lot of USB devices that need connecting without switching them out. Screen looks sharp in design and easy to clean.

5Great product - nice to have a large touch screen Posted by: BobE from: Rochester, MN on The setup was very simple. I only had to plug in one data cable and the power cord at setup (plug in cables - no software to deal with). The touch screen became disabled once but was easy to fix with reseating the data cable. Has worked with no problem since. I also had to figure out how to disable the internal speakers so I could use my own external unit (read the manual). I really like the touch screen now that I have gotten used to it. You only need to just get close to the screen for it to take action (do your pointing at a bit of a distance). It was a significant jump in price from non-touch but was worth it to me.

15 November 2001 - Source: Dow Jones
Vietnam Airlines isn't thinking of acquiring new aircraft soon, given the slowdown in regional air traffic, a company official told Dow Jones.
"Although we had Letters of Intention expressing our interest with Airbus and Boeing, we have not decided to acquire any new aircraft soon," said the official who declined to be named.
"Those letters were exchanged before the September 11 event, and now the situation is much changed," he noted, referring to the terrorist attacks on the US.
Asked if the airline will continue its plans to buy nine aircraft - five Airbus and four Boeing jets - as reported by the state media, the official said "Everyone knows that given this situation, with operating costs rising for the industry, any purchasing plans must be reconsidered.
Recently, we had to stop leasing two aircraft from abroad because the falling number of international passengers," he said

- Dual HD TV tuners, Great recording quality, Excellent interface.
- Price.
Bottom Line
LG's LST-5403P is a top of the range hard disk recorder with plenty of storage space and an interface grandma could use. A great, albeit pricey, contender.
Price$ 1,499.00 (AUD)
The LST-5403P offers dual high definition (HD) TV tuners with 250GB of storage wrapped up in a compact, feature rich package that's a pleasure to use.
Taking advantage of two in-built tuners, the LG's top of the range hard disk recorder allows you to watch two channels at once using Picture-in-Picture mode, record one and watch another, or record two channels at the same time. With 250GB of storage space, this gives up to 36 hours of high quality HD TV programming or almost 70 hours of standard definition (SD) TV.
In fact, there's no option to set recordable format -- as with the Sony SVR-HD models, the content is recorded in MP@HL(HD) and MP@ML(SD). Picture quality is automatically scaled from the input format to your chosen output, for which the LST-5403P can handle everything from 576i/p to 1080i. Oddly, this can only be set directly on the unit itself, the remote and the in-system menus allow you to configure the aspect ratio of your TV, but not the output format.
Tuning in
As you'd expect the dual HDTV tuners allow you 'pause' live TV as with other units of this class. Here the effect is almost instantaneous, simply popping up a 'Delayed' message box in the corner when you press the time shift button. Subsequent pausing and playing is seamless, and you can switch back to live TV at any time by pressing the appropriately named 'Live TV' button.
The image quality is excellent, and in our testing the tuners we found the whole gamut of SD and HD free-to-air TV channels without hitch. EPGs are combined into a single channel list you can browse to see what's on, and the 'Info' button when pressed while watching your currently selected channel shows not only the current program, but what's coming up next as well.
On that note the remote is a tad chunky and won't win any design awards, but the channel list, recorded program list, and time shift buttons are clearly labelled and easy to use. Navigating recorded programs is simple enough, and the selection screen lists the shows recorded, and also lists the hard drive space remaining - although it's not clear to the user just how many hours that space represents. An estimate in hours for the current output format would have been nice, and something the LST-5403P's analogue brother, the RH1999H, did quite nicely.
One nice feature however in the Setup menu is a signal strength indicator, great for gauging the quality of your reception.
Recording and playback
Recording your current program is as simple as pressing the record button, for which an optional timeframe can be entered in five minute segments. Scheduling is extremely easy - a menu box allows you to select channel and times straight from the EPG list, and optionally make it a recurring entry. A separate screen then lists the regular scheduled recording entries you've defined.
Fast-forwarding through recorded programs works well, so naturally you can skip ads, and for this the 'Smart Skip' feature might be helpful - ostensibly it's designed to pick up 'scene changes' and thus allow a more user-friendly form of jumping forward or back in a recording. In testing though it was hard to say if it was really detecting effective scene changes, or simply jumping by a present fraction of the recorded length.
As a purely hard drive based unit, it's important to remember you can't copy recorded programs to other mediums. During recording the hard drive was actually slightly audible at a standard viewing distance. It may have just been our model, but give the unit a spin in store before you buy it.
Finally, a nice touch for the recording features includes optional parental locks, allowing you to restrict access to programs based on their ratings from the EPG. Of course, this requires reliable information from the TV station to work.
Specs and ports
The LST-5403P has pretty much everything you need - it can upscale and downscale SD and HD TV resolutions from 576i/p to 720p and 1080i, and pairs this with Dolby Digital and MPEG (Layer I & II) for audio. A plethora of outputs includes one of HDMI, component and S-Video, along with two composite and an RGB D-Sub. A standard complement of one digital coaxial and one optical out, along with two stereo analogue outputs, rounds up the audio side.
The look of the unit is quite simplistic, and is designed to stack with your other audio and visual gear. The display is worth noting, as it includes dedicated lights for all the output modes (576i to 1080i), output formats (composite through to component and HDMI) as well as a hard drive capacity indicator. It's not exactly necessary since you can access the same information through the on-screen menus, but it's handy nonetheless.
As far as digital hard disk recorders go, the LG LST-5403P is both one of the most polished and feature rich products on the market. Although it is more expensive than most, it comes highly recommended.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Molly's work reflects her deep love for all animals and is passionate about depicting the loyalty, fun and friendship that our pets provide. Lucy, her Yellow Labrador Retriever, provides endless inspiration and is often the subject of her work. Lucy's expressions, the way her coat changes color in different light, Molly wants to capture it all. When she is not painting Lucy, Molly draws inspiration from other dogs, whether they are working, playing or posing. She works primarily in watercolors using a loose style and bold color to portray the life of a dog-a life of living in the moment. Her focus is not restricted to animals and recently her work has broadened to painting moments from her everyday life that she simply wishes to...

Regional economic outlook: Asia and Pacific: building on Asia's strengths during turbulent times.
World economic and financial surveys
- Corporate Author:
- International Monetary Fund
Although Asia remains a growth leader in the global economy, growth is expected to ease slightly to 5.5 percent during 2016, with countries affected to varying degrees by a still weak global recovery, slowing global trade, and the short-term impact of China's growth transition. Structural reforms are needed if Asia is to maintain its position in the global economy, including reforms aimed at enhancing productive capacity. Needed reforms range from state-owned enterprise and financial sector reform in China to labor and product market reforms in Japan and reforms to remove supply bottlenecks in India, ASEAN, frontier economies, and small states.

Jul 23, 2014 GMTSuddenly, every other free software project seems to be crowdfunding -- and those that aren't will probably be trying tomorrow. In three years, crowdfunding has gone from an exciting innovation to something almost everyone is trying. Yet its very success makes me wonder: is there a limit to the money that can be raised by donation? And what happens when we reach it?"Saturation" is the term used in marketing to define this limit. It refers to a market in which everyone who wants a product has bought it, and future sales are limited mostly to replacements. In North America, cars and many household appliances reached saturation several decades ago, so the results are well-known --...
Off the Beat: Bruce Byfield's Blog
Jul 16, 2014 GMTThe release of KDE Plasma 5 is mostly a technical event. However, one fact that is being mostly ignored is that Plasma 5 is the first release in which the KDE Visual Design Group has been at work, attempting to improve Plasma visually. Which raises the question: how successful is this effort?The Visual Design Group is overdue in KDE. Over the last fifteen years, the KDE desktop has offered everything in default themes from a blocky, plastic theme that resembles plastic children's toys to a metallic modern minimalism, but has never approached design systematically. Unlike GNOME, KDE has never encouraged consistent design principles, with the result that some utilities, such as the System...
Jul 08, 2014 GMTI know several people who make a habit of changing distributions every few weeks. They install a new distribution, and for a few days they have nothing but praise for it. But the honeymoon soon ends, the complaints start, and they are back hunting for the perfect version of Linux.It's a cycle that remains foreign to me. My first distribution was Mandrake, but I soon settled on Debian, and, fifteen years later, at least three-quarters of my computing remains on Debian. Partly, the choice was due to the fact that I worked for two Debian-related startups in a row. However, the main reason was that Debian fulfilled all the requirements I wanted in a main workstation: it was stable, and had a...
Jun 30, 2014 GMTFifteen years ago this week, free software became a major part of my life. It was a change that took me to places I never imagined, and introduced me to people I otherwise would never have met, almost none of which I regret.At the time, I wasn't a complete stranger to free software. I had tried installing Linux a couple of times without any success. My last contract, too, had been documenting a Slackware system, even though it had been described to me, somewhat misleadingly, as a type of Unix.Then, I went to an apparently routine job interview that turned out to be for a writer for a new distribution. By the time the interview was over, I had fallen down the rabbit hole.As Stan Rogers...
Jun 26, 2014 GMTLast week, I did a fresh install of Fedora for the first time in several years. The installer, I noticed immediately, had become an example of minimalism -- that is, its screens were heavy on the visual and as light as possible on the words. Almost immediately, I found myself fumbling, trapped in an presentation of information that was foreign to me, and wondering how intellectually limited I must be that I had trouble with such a simple design.At first, I thought the problem was that I am far more verbally oriented than visually. Unlike many people, I never thought found the Debian installer that difficult -- even before the current version was introduced. If anything, the Debian...
Jun 17, 2014 GMTMost modern email readers support encryption, but that's only half the story. Despite the growing public interest in security and privacy, most readers are still designed on the principle that if you want encryption, you will have no trouble figuring how to configure it.To say the least, this is an ungrounded assumption. All too often, poor documentation and interface design, as well as complicated procedures conspire to keep encrypted email out of the reach of all but the expert or patient few. A little research may tell you that you need a PGP public key, but how easy is it to made your email reader aware of the key?Here's how seven of the most popular email readers on Linux answer that...
Jun 10, 2014 GMTThe Free Software Foundation (FSF) took a step in the right direction when it recently released Email Self-Defense, a guide to encrypting email using Enigmail and GNUPG. More screen shots might improve it, but on the whole it's a clear and well-organized explanation of a topic that puzzles even some intermediate users. I suspect, however, that to get people to encrypt email is not so much a matter of releasing clear instructions -- many of which already exist -- as a matter of overcoming deeply embedded attitudes.Admittedly, privacy and personal security have become popular topics in the media over the last couple of years. However, to conclude from this popularity that people actually...

EV Supply Equipment Sales to Hit Almost 2.4 Million Units in 2020
The global electric vehicle supply equipment market will increase from fewer than 200,000 units sold in 2012 to almost 2.4 million in 2020, according to a report from Pike Research.
Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment says the past 18 months have seen the plug-in EV transition into full commercialization, resulting in major growth in EV supply equipment.
In 2012, there will be almost 45,000 public charging stations installed globally and more than 135,000 plug-in EVs sold, the report says. By 2013 it forecasts more than 80 different models of plug-in EVs will be driven on roadways and at least as many models of charging equipment for residential and commercial customers will be available.
Although plug-in EV sales over the past year and a half have been lower than previously forecasted, the report says the market will continue to grow as the worldwide economy improves and battery prices drop.
The report predicts North American sales of EV supply equipment will grow almost tenfold, from about 66,000 units in 2012 to 626,000 units in 2020. Federally funded initiatives like the EV Project and ChargePoint America are driving this growth, it says. But as these projects wind down, sales will shift to non-publicly funded units, according to the report.
The US will be the largest market for EV supply equipment from 2012 to 2020, with six states comprising about 50 percent of sales, Pike Research says. California is the largest state market, followed by New York, Florida, Texas, Washington and Illinois.
Western European demand will drive more than 90 percent of Europe's EV supply equipment sales. The report says that while Japan currently leads the Asia Pacific market, China will overtake Japan in terms of EV supply equipment sales in 2016.
Pike Research says the market for residential charging equipment will grow at a slower rate between 2013 and 2020 than commercial charging equipment because fewer homes have secured parking spots where EV drivers can install a charger. In regions where fewer plug-in EV owners have a residential charger, the ratio of commercial EV supply equipment to vehicles will be higher because EV owners will need to share infrastructure.
According to the report, by 2013, residential EV supply equipment sales will drop below 50 percent of the market. By 2020, residential EV supply equipment will only make up 35 percent of the global market.
Earlier this week, IBM announced it has partnered with ESB Networks to deploy a "smarter" EV charging system to manage about 1,000 public charging points across Ireland, allowing EV drivers to access, charge and pay using an identification card.
