I purchased some LS50s at Christmas along with a Cyrus Streamline 2 Network Player for use as a second system for bedroom or office and was blown away by them from the start. I benched them against PMC Twenty 21's which are quite a jump in price. The PMCs had better separation which was to be expected with improvements in both drivers and crossover but they also sounded too clinical for my liking. I could have walked away with either but the LS50s won on their musicality and timing, they also produce a fair bit of bass for bookshelf speakers. I listen to a broad range of music from classical to electronica, film scores and rock & pop and this system extracts subtle details in my FLAC files that I didn't realise were there on the original CD. If you are familiar with KEF's UniQ driver technology, they are quite an improvement over previous generations as I have some 12 year old KEF Reference speakers to compare to, the LS50s detail and separation is vastly improved over these huge floorstanders, though the later still wins on the scale of its soundstage . Given the amount of praise they have received from the Hi-Fi press you could probably just buy them without auditioning, and are superior to all the other speakers you have shortlisted as I also considered them at the time, they also partner very well with my Cyrus network player.

And... even better... if you want an absolutely huge, life-like soundstage, with excellent resolution and precise imaging (a wall of sound) - even outside the focal seating position - just set them up on stands about 4' from the walls, about 12'+ apart, toed in a bit (maybe 15+ degrees), and aimed up a bit (rake position of about 10+ degrees)! You'll think the musicians are in the room with you - very much like Maggies, or other high-end floor-standing, dipole or open baffle speakers.
These are not "bookshelf" or "desktop" speakers (I repeat... not bookshelf or desktop speakers) in any respect - they are room filling monitors, which don't come into their own sound, until they're out in the middle of the room, where their dipole design can fully bloom!

It's nice to see them getting so much praise. I'm pretty much set on 5 of these and a BK sub for my 5.1 set up - movies, TV, games, and obviously music performance BDs/DVDs, I guess some 2 channel stuff too... my wallet is not pleased!

Going to audition these tomorrow. Considering pairing them with the Parasound Halo A23. I'm interested to see if they're twice as good as my current setup, a pair of Dynaudio BM5A MKIIs.

I purchased the LS50's back in October of last year after I heard them at RMAF. This was the room I was in:
I was blown away on how good they sounded. I was going crazy as we sold our house shortly after and the box was unopened until the first week of March last month.
I've paired them up with the following:
Audiolab 8200AP Pre Amp
Audiolab M-DAC
Yamaha CD-S1000 SACD Player
JoLida JD1501P Tube Power Amplifier
Jolida JD9 Tube Phono Stage
Pioneer N-50 Network Player
Clearaudio Concept Turntable
I've never enjoyed music like this before. I also have a REL T2 Sub still in the box but don't feel it is needed with this setup plus I live in an loft complex and don't want to fill the neighbors with sound.
I agree 100% with what Gradofan2 has to say in regards to "...an absolutely huge, life-like soundstage, with excellent resolution and precise imaging".

I just bought these based on the stereophile review, sight and sound unseen. Was looking for a more neutral sounding monitor for my home office, not a big room. 10'X15', very bright room acoustically speaking. Had a pair of Focal Electra 907 Be's, 25th anniversary edition in the room before, with a sunfire 1000W 8" sub. I had been seduced by the near ribbon like sound of the focal beryllium tweeter, as I was used to my Newform Ribbon sound and wanted similar level of speed in the HF, but in a much smaller and a much better WAF, given it's on the main floor. Was quite happy with them, beautiful imaging, transparency, a great speaker....but after a fews years my ears hurt...close proximity listening in a bright room, with an unrelenting speaker was just too much. I have started listenin gto more vinyl, and on poorer recordings they were unbearable. Probably accurate but music I liked I could not listen to (e.g. Leon Russell, Dave Mason, Stephen Stills late 60's early 70's era stuff I found at a local used record shop recently).
So I listened to a few alternatives, dynaudio focus, psb synchrony2, pmc 21 (? maybe model number is wrong, but small monitor). All were quite good, but significantly more expensive than the KEF and none really blew me away...so I thought what the heck at $1,500 and given the glowing reviews, how could I go wrong with the KEF. Worst comes to worse they could make good bedroom speakers.
First off, when they were delivered and picked them up from the courier room, I was surprised at the weight for such a small package. Hmmm...can't be a bad sign. Got them home and unboxed them. Beautiful high gloss finish, very advanced looking drivers, look fit the offce room perfectly. Knocking on the cabinet with your knuckles produces the deadest, most solid clunk I have ever experienced with a speaker, These are solid cabinets, just as solid as the Focals which were about 2X the price.
First couple of CD's I played (Wilco, Los Lobos, Neil Young etc) showed the promise of what they could become, but were not quite there. Sounded a bit compressed, harsh (but less so than the Focals), but good extension for such a small speaker (if a little loose in the bottom end). Mid range- vocals, piano, gave me a hint of what they could do though. Midrange had great detail while still smooth, sibilance was not nearly as pronounced as my Focals, or any of the other speakers I had auditioned.
So I played them 7/24 for a couple of days, facing each other to cancel the bass an not dirve everyone in the house crazy. Sat down for a detailed listening session again and...WOW. Midrange got even better. Detail improved significantly, as good or better than the FOCALs, but without the hardness. After fiddling wiht the subwoofer settings and not finding something that really worked, I turned it off and listened again. The extension out of that little mid/bass is astounding, with phenomenal definition. I moved the subwoofer (along with the Focals) into another room where I listen less frequently/critically. If you have a huge room or listen to a lot of organ music maybe you need a sub, but otherwise, forget about it. Led Zeppelin even sounded full and you feel the real power of Bonham, better than the focal/sunfire combo before. And cranking them to very high levels is no problem at all.
Just now I skipped through a bunch of songs off my music server - AC/DC, (the bells at the beginning of Hells Bells sound like they are in your room), Beck (Sea Change), Calexico (horns sounded amazingly detailed without hurting the ears), Cowboy Junkies, Mile Davis, Dire Straits, Jeff Beck's Guitar shop, Joe Jackson Body and Soul, Laurie Anderson/Peter Gabriel, Zeppelin, Los Lobos (Kiko and hte Lavender Moon sounds particularly incredible), Nick Drake, P.J Harvey, Radiohead (There There was the best I've every heard it by a mile, great definiton), Soul Coughing, The Verve, Tori Amos etc., etc. Everything you throw at them sounds fabulous, natural, full and non fatiguing. Only slightly negative thing I would say is the imaging wasn't quite as broad and pinpoint as my Focals. But who knows, maybe that will continue to improve as I've only had them for a week.
Was a tiny bit apprehensive at buying online even after the reviews, but not an ounce of regret. Way better than I imagined.
All in all, an unbelieveable value.

After a few weeks with them now I'm loving everything they do well. The midrange is the best I've ever heard and soundstage and imaging are great for a speaker this size. Good recordings shine, begging to be played at reference levels. Poor recordings can't hide and I find myself reducing the volume when they come on (another reason I need that new DAC2 HGC - the remote!)
The bass I'm still trying to get my head around. On most recordings it's well sorted to about the middle of the second octave, giving you a hint of what lies beneath, but as they approach 40Hz the levels seem to be lacking in heft. I've experimented with placement, moving them so that the rear of the cabinet was only 24" from the wall, and while there seemed to be more bass, it wasn't very well defined and the soundstage collapsed to 2D. Back out into the room they went and I grabbed an 8" sub to try to blend. I'm limited to a 3' x 3' area in the two front corners so I tried the one furthest from the turntable. My hope was that I'd blend them so that the aural hint the KEFs were giving me below 80Hz handed off to the visceral weight of the sub, giving me nice extension into the mid 30s. I couldn't accomplish that, it was a muddy mess.
So I broke out the Rives Test CD2 and the RS meter it's calibrated for. With an 80dB reference at 1kHz I'm hitting a -3dB level at 200Hz that dips to -17dB at 80Hz but goes back to -5dB before disappearing below 40Hz. This must be what I'm hearing so I'm not sure where to go from here. The speakers and chair are positioned according to the rule of thirds and I have SuperChunks installed in the front two corners and soffit traps around the entire wall/ceiling junction. Maybe I need to experiment more with a sub and potentially add a second or tweak it with EQ.
I'm going to swap the Dyns back in today to do some listening and measuring before deciding which to keep. Currently I'm leaning towards the KEFs because I think I can get the low end sorted but we'll see after listening to the Dyns again for a few days.

Can you easily take out the traps? I would start with a clean slate first to plot in-room frequency response. I've got the Rives CD and the RS SPL meter as well, but I've found that the reflections (or perhaps, my ear/brain) actually tend to fill in the 'missing' frequencies that the meter measures.
Have you tried moving the KEF's closer to the rear wall to reinforce the bass? From Stereophile's frequency response graphs, the -6 dB point is about 40 Hz, so I wouldn't expect any usable output in the lower octaves past that.

However, I do not have my amp since my father purchased it from me to use at the cabin. I've been looking into the emotive mini-x as a basic amp to power the ls50's. The specs seem to fit perfectly but is spending $250 on an amp for $1500 speakers a disservice? I'm not trying to spend buttloads on an amp but I don't want to go cheap as well.
Would anyone recommend a decent amp to make these babies sing? Used or new is fine by me.

Emotiva seems to be well regarded, though I haven't heard any of their gear, personally. If you can stand the possible fan noise (since it seems they can't rely on passive cooling in this particular amp), then it's probably a good choice - just listen at sane volumes. However, I would definitely save up for better electronics to match up with the LS50s.

I'm starting to get that feeling
I loved my NAD amp and it seemed to pair really well with my Onix ref 1's. I could go down that route again...
Peachtree Audio is intriguing but I doubt I could get a used one under a grand.
Too many choices out there!

Gwen Moore "surprised" by light punishment for botched ATF Milwaukee case
U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore says she was surprised by the lack of serious punishment for the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents responsible for Operation Fearless -- the botched storefront sting run in Milwaukee in 2012.
Moore (D-Wis.) issued a statement in response to a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigative update that revealed the ATF gave four agents involved in the operation what is known as a "memorandum of caution" -- the most mild punishment for an agent. Veterans called it a "slap on the wrist."
Moore said in her statement: "I was surprised to learn of the seemingly light nature of the disciplinary action taken against those ATF special agents involved in Operation Fearless. I am not privy to the internal personnel matters of the Bureau, but I do think it is important to ensure that those responsible for any wrongdoings in the operation are held fully accountable. I continue to look forward to learning the results of the Department of Justice Inspector General's investigation and I will continue to monitor this issue carefully." »Read Full Blog Post(35)
Guns sales are brisk; ATF inspections are not
Guns are doing a booming business, with the industry manufacturing, selling and importing firearms at a 27-year high, according to a new report from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
The report also shows the ATF inspected just 7.6% of the roughly 140,000 Federal Firearms Licensees, a seven-year low, as the agency struggles a fulfill a promise to inspect all gun dealers every five years.
Firearms Commerce in the United States, released Thursday, shows there were 8.6 million guns manufactured in 2012, a 31% increase over 2011. In 1986, there were 3 million guns manufactured. Figures for 2013 were not included. »Read Full Blog Post(43)
Holder vows accountability for ATF tattooing low IQ man; But will it even be investigated?
Attorney General Eric Holder vowed in congressional testimony this week that there will be accountability for those in the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives responsible for tattooing a mentally disabled man and other tactics.
But the very storefront sting Holder highlighted – Operation Kraken in Portland where the man was convinced to get a tattoo by an agent with taxpayer money – is not among those being investigated by the Department of Justice's Inspector General.
In an animated answer regarding the ATF tactics uncovered by a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigation, Holder told Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.): "The notion that you would use mentally unstable people, you would tattoo them, that you would do ridiculous things like that. It's absurd and people will be held accountable. I don't support that at all. It's crazy." (ed note: exchange on ATF stings is at 3:24:55 of video) »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Top ATF official commits fraud, but with 'permission'
A top ATF official who oversaw the disastrous "Operation Fast and Furious" took a high-paying private sector job while still collecting his government check.
The move by William McMahon in 2012 "would have clearly constituted fraud," according to the Department of Justice's Office of the Inspector General.
But the OIG throws in this caveat: It was not fraud because McMahon had permission for the arrangement, according to the inspector general report obtained by the Journal Sentinel last week. CNN and Townhall.com first reported on the OIG memo. »Read Full Blog Post(18)
Disability rights group applauds DOJ probe of ATF stings
Advocates for people with intellectual disabilities praised the U.S. Department of Justice inspector general Saturday for his announcement earlier in the week that he would launch an investigation into undercover storefront stings run by the ATF.
"We hope that the results of the inquiry are the end to this practice across all operations conducted by the Department of Justice," Peter Berns, CEO of The Arc, said in a written statement. "Because of the unique challenges people with intellectual and developmental disabilities face in the criminal justice system, as either suspects, offenders, or victims, they should not be used as pawns or informants by ATF agents or other law enforcement officials."
The inspector general's announcement followed a year-long investigation by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel into the ATF's tactics used in undercover storefronts. The news organization's investigation found scores of problems including stings in least five cities where ATF agents befriended people with mental disabilities, used them to promote their fake storefronts and set up gun and drug deals and later had them arrested and criminally charged for their work. »Read Full Blog Post(1)
House hearing set on ATF storefront gun stings
A congressional hearing on botched ATF storefront stings in Milwaukee and across the county is set for later this month, as a bipartisan push for information about the operations continues.
The hearing will be held before the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigations on Feb. 27, according to a congressional aide. It is not yet clear who will testify at the hearing. Leadership from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is expected to attend.
Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) is chairman of the crime subcommittee, which is part of the House Judiciary Committee. »Read Full Blog Post
No guns used in crimes recovered in ATF Portland sting
An ATF sting in Portland, set up across the street from a middle school, resulted in probation for most of those charged in state court and recovery of no guns used in crimes, according to an article by The Oregonian published Saturday.
The findings come in the wake of a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigation that revealed problems in that operation and others like it across the country.
The Journal Sentinel investigation found the ATF used mentally disabled people to promote operations and then arrested them for their work; opened storefronts close to schools and churches, increasing arrest numbers and penalties; and attracted juveniles with free video games and alcohol. »Read Full Blog Post(1)
Baldwin says ATF stings "totally inexcusable," DOJ IG to investigate
The U.S. Justice Department inspector general is reviewing the findings of a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigation revealing how ATF used rogue tactics in storefront sting operations nationwide and is considering how he will investigate them.
In a letter to Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) released Friday, Inspector General Michael Horowitz wrote that he will "update the scope" of an investigation he launched earlier this year into a flawed storefront sting in Milwaukee, uncovered by the Journal Sentinel in January 2013.
After examining the Journal Sentinel findings, Horowitz wrote, "we intend to expand the scope of our ongoing review, and we will determine the most effective way for the OIG to review the additional allegations. After we have updated the scope, we will keep you informed of our determination." »Read Full Blog Post(4)
Sen. Tammy Baldwin demands investigation into ATF tactics
U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) sent a letter late Wednesday demanding an investigation into the ATF's use of rogue tactics in storefront stings across the nation.
Baldwin called the findings of a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigation published this week "deeply troubling."
The Journal Sentinel reported Sunday that the ATF used mentally disabled individuals to promote their operations in at least five cities — including paying one to get a tattoo advertising their storefront — and later arrested them. »Read Full Blog Post(8)

ATF whistleblower can publish, just not cash in
ATF Agent John Dodson, who was in the middle of the agency's Operation Fast and Furious, wants to publish a book about it, but agency bosses say no, the Washington Post reported this week.
According to a rejection letter given to Dodson and obtained by the Post, "This would have a negative impact on morale in the Phoenix [field division] and would have a detremental [sic] effect on our relationships with [the Drug Enforcement Administration] and FBI."
But now a spokeswoman with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is saying Dodson isn't barred from publishing -- he just cannot make any money off of it. »Read Full Blog Post(1)
FBI bypasses ATF on Navy Yard gun trace
Bad blood between two federal law enforcement agencies appears to have surfaced again last week when the FBI traced the gun used in the Navy Yard shooting, taking a job typically belonging to the ATF.
It's not clear yet how the FBI beat the ATF to the northern Virginia gun shop where Aaron Alexis, 34, bought a Remington 870 Express shotgun and about two dozen shells 48 hours before the shooting.

The ATF's botched gun-buying sting in Milwaukee is expected to be among the questions facing B. Todd Jones when he appears before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Tuesday in a confirmation hearing to be director of the agency.
The Journal Sentinel will host a live blog during the hearing, with a video stream of testimony and updates by reporters. Readers will be able to post their thoughts on the hearing as it unfolds.
Jones, the U.S. Attorney in
Milwaukee gun sting expected to surface in ATF hearing
B. Todd Jones, the acting director of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is scheduled to receive a confirmation hearing on June 4, an aide with the Senate Judiciary Committee said Friday.
Jones' nomination has been stalled over a series of questions including about a bungled ATF sting in Milwaukee. The Milwaukee case, known as Operation Fearless, is expected to be one of the issues to come up at the hearing, according to the aide.
The ATF has been without a permanent director since 2006 when then-Director Carl Truscott resigned after spending lavishly on a new headquarters. In a move pushed by Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.), Congress subsequently required the ATF director position be approved by the Senate. Since then, no director has been approved. »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Milwaukee man gets 32 months from ATF gun sting
A Milwaukee man was sentenced to 32 months in prison Friday for selling guns to undercover ATF agents last year as part of the Riverwest sting beset by foul-ups and failures.
Kenneth Hampton, 25, was one of about 30 people charged as part of the 10-month sting.
He sold 16 guns to the undercover agents from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, including a gun with an obliterated serial number, which makes it difficult to trace. »Read Full Blog Post(3)
DOJ Inspector general raps ATF on gun dealer regulation
The ATF failed to inspect more than half of gun dealers over five years, while the number violations found at those dealers spiked, according to an audit by the Department of Justice inspector general.
The audit, released Tuesday, found the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was not meeting its goal of inspecting all federal firearms licensees over a five-year period.
"As a result, non-compliant FFLs go undetected by ATF for many years," the review said. »Read Full Blog Post(3)
ATF confirms problems with Milwaukee sting
ATF higher-ups who met with congressional staffers from the House and Senate Judiciary Committees on Monday confirmed the many problems with the agency's Fearless sting in
The sources spoke on condition of anonymity because the meeting was considered confidential.
The meeting on Monday was informational and productive and centered on a few key areas such as oversight and public/officer safety, they said. »Read Full Blog Post(6)
ATF to meet with congressional staff on Milwaukee sting
Officials from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives on Monday are scheduled to meet with staffers from the U.S. House and Senate Judiciary Committees and the House Oversight Committee regarding a flawed undercover sting in
A group of powerful members of Congress have been demanding answers from the agency since the Journal Sentinel first exposed how agents running a fake storefront in Riverwest called Fearless Distributing, got burglarized, left behind sensitive documents with agents' names, phone numbers and take-down signals, and recommended charges against at least three of the wrong suspects – one who was in prison at the time.
One agent had a fully automatic machine gun and other weapons stolen out of his vehicle. Law enforcement officials have not recovered the machine gun. »Read Full Blog Post(5)
Text message may be a lead in hunt for stolen ATF machine gun
The hunt continues for an ATF agent's machine gun stolen during the course of an undercover gun-buying sting in Milwaukee last year, but no one has been arrested and the gun is still on the street, according to newly unsealed court documents and Milwaukee police.
The missing machine gun is mentioned in a search warrant on what appears to be an unrelated arson of a car earlier this month.
In that arson case, Willtoniette Johnson, is suspected of burning a car, according to the document unsealed this week. »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Internal report on flawed ATF sting in Milwaukee sent to Department of Justice
An internal investigation examining a flawed undercover ATF sting in Milwaukee has been completed and forward to the U.S. Department of Justice for further review, an official with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Friday.
The operation was marred by a series of failures and foul-ups, including an agent having his guns stolen, the undercover storefront being burglarized, sensitive documents being left behind and the wrong people being charged, a Journal Sentinel investigation found . An ATF-owned machine stolen during the operation has not been recovered.
The operation led to about 30 criminal cases but many of those are for minor drug and gun counts. A federal prosecutor took the unusual step of criticizing the operation at a sentencing last week, saying it was not the best use of resources. He also said he wished more criminals with violent histories had been caught in the sting. »Read Full Blog Post(3)

Customer Reviews
Addictive Fun!
This is a really fun game! The controls are easy, and the beautiful hand drawn graphics are just gorgeous. This is truly a good attempt by the developers, have not played a game like this before though it does reminds me a little of a game called Monkeys on another operating system. Still, this game is so fun as it not only utilizes the touch capabilities on your screen, but also lets you control by shaking it to the left and right (like Temple Run). It's really easy to play, and it's even more easy to get hooked and play for a long time! Worth the price.
Cute birdie game!
This game has actually the best difficulty level a game has to offer. The levels are not too hard, but not so easy, especially as the levels go. I like the sound effects and back ground music, which is quite relaxing. The game is easy to understand and the controls are simple too. It uses the tilt of your iPhone, so beware of that, which is not a bad thing. Great graphics with good detail. All in all, it is a 5 star app.
Really enjoyed the game
This game is very interesting. I really enjoyed playing because it starts easy but gets harder, which makes the game fun. It is a concept I have not come across from any other game which is refreshing and really good game. The game is pushing birds intot the air and then trying to land them on the flags that are colored match, very simple concept. Also very easy to get the hang of, so overall really enjoyed playing this game.

Warming up for the second half of Michigan State's win against Wisconsin, Keith Appling stood in the corner shooting 3's.
Matt Costello stood next to him, in his ear after each shot.
"I was just telling him to hit them," Costello said. "We are all rooting for him."
The senior point guard has been up and down since his return from a wrist injury eight games ago. From confidence to physically working on his shot, he has struggled to regain the early season form that had him playing at an elite level.
With eight second-half points in the 83-75 win Saturday, a little bit of that form – and a little bit of swagger – was evident again.
"It felt pretty good to see the ball go through hoop a couple times," he said. "I feel like that kind of got me going on both ends of the floor."
He finished with 10 points, just shy of the 12 he posted against Iowa nine days earlier, but it was how he played throughout his 37 minutes that made this game different.
"You could tell when a guy goes under a screen and he steps back with the confidence to knock it down that he's back," guard Travis Trice said. "Even the Iowa game when he hit those two 3s, it was good to see it go through but he still wasn't himself.
"Tonight, he was attacking the rim and getting other guys involved so I think he's back now. All the way back."
As Wisconsin started making an early-second half run to close the 17-point halftime deficit, it was Appling who kept the Badgers at arm's length.
He traded baskets back and forth with Wisconsin on consecutive possessions – both jumpers – to push the lead back to 12 each time. At that time, Gary Harris said he knew the real Appling was back on the court.
"When they were sagging off of him and he smacked his lips as a form of disrespect," Harris said. "He took the shot and made it. I was like, 'Oh, here he goes.'"
The senior also had six assists against Wisconsin, continuing to push the ball up court and get out in transition. The emphasis that Tom Izzo placed on the importance of fastbreak baskets was focused on Appling and he has been at the head of it in the past two games as the Spartans have a 32-11 advantage in fastbreak points.
"We are a better team when we get in the open court and make things happen," Appling said. "Once we do that, we get more opportunities."
And more opportunities will continue to come to the Spartans as Appling continues to become more like the player he was early in the season, but his teammates say he is back to that now. Just like Trice, Harris and Denzel Valentine said he has his mojo back.
"We kept messing with Keith while were playing saying, 'Welcome back, Keith, welcome back,'" Harris said. "Just seeing him making shots and running and finishing at the basket is huge for us."

We filed using Tax Act on Wednesday, and both state and federal still say awaiting acceptance. Pretty much everyone I've talked to, and reading of some here too, say their returns were accepted quickly, some within 30 mins of filing, others the next day. But here we have nothing. I'm starting to worry something is wrong. I believe we have itemized deductions, child tax credits, mortgage intrerest deductions, but none of the things the IRS has listed that will delay certain returns longer.
So for those who have already filed, has your return been accepted or are you still waiting? If you are still waiting, is there anything "special" about yours?

Holiday tea services at Palm Beach's HMF enhance tradition with a twist

Is The Breakers' HMF—known for its chic, nighttime cocktail culture—taking a quainter path when it hosts upcoming afternoon tea services for the holidays?
Yes. And no.

Al Horford: Boston Celtics can 'win a championship' #NBA es.pn/2cWDEe0
A glimpse inside Celtics training camp as Boston players go through 2-on-1 drills.
Brad Stevens on rookie Jaylen Brown: "He's really been enjoyable to be around. He really wants to be good. He's thoughtful. He wants to work at it."
Stephen Kaplan, co-owner of the Grizzlies, becomes the 3rd NBA team owner to make a major move in esports this week… twitter.com/i/web/status/7…
Celtics coach Brad Stevens said veteran swingman Gerald Green will sit out the next few days due to a hip flexor. Stevens said it's more precautionary.
Jeff Hornacek says he has the freedom to tweak the triangle as he sees fit. "We talked a lot about it over the summer. Phil's given us the ability to run it anyway we want, how we set it up. We (have) what we feel is a good working way to run it with different options."
Carmelo Anthony appreciated Joakim Noah's intensity after his first workout with the Knicks. "He's going to bring it. If you're not on his team, you're an enemy. I think that mentality, that's going to kind of trickle down to every body else," Anthony said.
Joakim Noah had a measured response when asked about Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf saying he's not a front line player anymore: "It's alright. He's entitled to his opinion." Noah added that felt it was a 'low blow' but he's proud of his time with the Bulls and has 'no regrets" about his CHI tenure.
Joakim Noah didn't make any bold proclamations here but says beating LeBron James & the Cavs is "definitely the goal." "That's got to be the mindset. We all know what it is. Right now it goes through him. It goes through that guy. For us to get where we want to get to we've got to beat that guy."
The Knicks are back in West Point for the third straight year. Carmelo Anthony says his new teammates will understand the importance of the setting in the coming days when they interact with cadets. "They'll get a better appreciation of where we're at and why we come here."
Joakim Noah said his shoulder and knee are feeling well after his first practice with the Knicks. Noah was limited to just 29 games last season due to shoulder surgery.
The Knicks haven't learned much of Jeff Hornacek's new offense yet, but Carmelo Anthony just wants his coach to be comfortable with the system -- whatever it turns out to be. "As long as Jeff is comfortable with what he wants to do and what he wants to run, we're going to buy into that," Anthony said.
Carmelo hopes the Cavs re-sign J.R. Smith soon: "I don't even know what's going on over there with that. I just hope they don't prolong the situation. He helped them win that championship. He was a major part of that team and I hope they can get something done."
Jeff Hornacek says he likes what he's seen from Derrick Rose: "I think he's getting he's legs back. Just watching him last year when we played them, it didn't look like he was as explosive as maybe he is now," the coach said Wednesday. Rose impressed coaches during today's scrimmage.
Newly signed power forward Ryan Anderson said during Rockets media day he saw more open looks during pickup games than during his four seasons with the Pelicans. The comment prompted some fans of the Pelicans to express some disappointment with Anderson on social media. "Just making a point I've been getting a lot of open looks," Anderson said when told about the Pels' fans displeasure. "In New Orleans a lot of teams would, especially when I was in that sixth man role, in a lot of different lineups, I would be the focal point and a lot of teams would try to shut me out. (Defenses) switching and they wouldn't let me get open looks. I think this offense is so imperative for the guards to get to the basket. All the attention will be on James (Harden) and that will take a lot off me. I was exaggerating a little bit."
Ty Lue on the addition of Mike Dunleavy: "Over the last two years I think is shooting 52 percent on open shots ... Defensively he's always in the right spots. I talked to Thibs about him. He's an underrated defender because he's a great team defender."
Two random facts on Cavs rookie Kay Felder for you: he is cousins with former NBA great/current NBA TV analyst Steve Smith and his coaching staff from Oakland University observed Cavs practice on Wednesday.
Rondo on KG retiring: "He's one of the best that's ever played the game. He's hanging his hat up and he's had a hell of a career and I wish him the best in whatever he's doing next."
Dwayne Wade noted that one of the players who has stuck out to him most early on is -- Doug McDermott.
LeBron on his role this year: "I'm going to do a little bit of everything. That's my job description. It says, 'LeBron James: Do Everything - Akron - St. Vincent-St. Mary.' It hasn't changed."
The NBA is 75% black w/only TWO African-American GMs. Milt Newton is optimistic his big shot will come again. undf.td/2dykYTe

Enjoy spill-proof sipping at work or on the trail with the 25 fl. oz. CamelBak eddy™ water bottle.
Redesigned cap and bite valve provide faster flow and enhanced durability
Flip, Bite and Sip. No tipping required (though possible: just remove the straw)
New, sleek shape fits in the hand and most cup holders
Dishwasher Safe: All parts are top-rack dishwasher safe
Durable and spill-proof
Easy to carry: Integrated loop handle makes it easy to clip a carabiner or carry with the crook of a finger
100% free of BPA and BPS
Wide-mouth opening is easy to fill with ice and water and a breeze to clean
CamelBak Big Bite™ Valve is compatible with CamelBak® eddy™ and CamelBak® Groove® bottles
CamelBak® Got Your Bak™ Guarantee: If we built it, we'll Bak it™ with our lifetime guarantee.
CLEANING THE EDDY The bottle, bite valve, straw and lid can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Pull off the bite valve and straw from the cap. If you like to use a bottle brush, we don't recommend forcing a brush through the Bite Valve slit. If you have the brush kit, run the small brush through the straw.
For a deeper cleaning, add a drop of mild soap or tablespoon of bleach to a clean glass jar filled with water. Drop the bite valve, straw and cap into the solution, and tightly close the jar's lid. Shake the mixture around for 30 seconds, and then let the parts soak for about 15 minutes. Rinse and shake dry.
To re-assemble the lid: Flip the stem collar (the component the bite valve attached to originally) to the open position. Orient the bite valve so the finger tab points towards the front of the cap. Push the bite valve firmly onto the stem collar. Press the straw back into place on the bottom of the lid. Ensure the straw covers the notches completely.
First-time use: What's the clear thing on top of the cap for? Do I remove it or cut it to drink?
The clear thing is the CamelBak® Big Bite™ Valve. This patented feature provides easy drinking and spill-proof safety. Do NOT remove or cut this piece to drink. Simply bite it slightly and sip as you would out of a straw.
Can/How do I freeze the CamelBak® eddy™ with bite valve?
You can freeze the bottle but make sure:
We also recommend that the bite valve stem NOT be flipped up or down if there is any frozen water in the tube. Wait until thawed.
Can I use the CamelBak® eddy™ in high-altitude/ low-pressure environments (i.e. airplanes, mountain altitudes, etc)?
Yes, but with special care because pressure can force liquid out through the straw. Keep the bottle right side up with the bite valve in the closed position. Remove the straw for additional protection. Expect a bit of "spurt" during the first sip. You may also twist the cap open to release any pressure and then close before your first sip.
Can I put hot liquids in it?
We do not recommend using with hot drinks because the experience will be similar to drinking hot liquid through a straw.
What happens if I put sports drinks/juice in the CamelBak® eddy™?
Use of any of these drinks in the bottle is fine, but thorough cleaning after each use is recommended.
Can I use with carbonated beverages?
You can use any beverage in the CamelBak® eddy™, however we do not recommend the use of carbonated beverages with the straw configuration because pressure can force liquid out through the straw. To use with carbonated beverages, we recommend that you remove the straw and drink via "tip and sip."
What max temperature (freezing/boiling water) can the CamelBak® eddy™ withstand?
The CamelBak® eddy™ can withstand being filled with boiling water or stored in below freezing temperatures. We do not recommend boiling the bottle itself. Is the CamelBak® eddy™ microwave safe?
Feel free to use the CamelBak® eddy™ to warm up liquids (ie. up to a minute), but we don't recommend cooking your dinner in it. Do NOT microwave with the cap in place as it contains metal screws that are not microwave safe.
Does the CamelBak® eddy™ work with back country purifier filters/microfilters?
The CamelBak® eddy™ is compatible with filters that adapt to a 63 mm screw top opening (in other words, it's compatible with most filters on the market).
Does it hold residual taste?
No, there is no residual taste in the bottle materials, and it's also stain-resistant. Some sports drinks and other flavored beverages can leave behind residue of flavor oils that could require extra cleaning.
What happens if I take the straw off?
Removal of the straw allows a "tip and sip" mode of drinking.

Had a little race called Tough Mudder which we competed in on the Sunshine Coast, even though they have water stands dotted all over the course, I need my water. I have owned a number of cambelbak products over the years and saw the eddy on sale, knowing the quality I bought it for the pre training and the course itself. It gets ticks in all the boxes.CheersRobbie

I have 2 Camelbak Eddy bottles. One in Plum (53357) and the other in Turquoise (53532). I loved these bottles because when exercising it's nice to be able to hydrate without tilting your head back since this causes me to lose my balance when on treadmills, elliptical machines, etc. Safety first hahaha. However, I'm very disappointed with these bottles and the amount of mold that grows in them. I disassemble them and put them through the dishwasher on a very regular basis but the mold continues to grow. I even had to buy baby bottle cleaning brushes in order to try and get all of the mold out because I loved these bottles so much and can no longer use them because I don't want to continue ingesting mold. The time it takes to attempt to get all of the mold off is just not worth it.

Great Bottle, too much effort
By The College Person
from Pittsburgh, PA
About Me Avid Adventurer
Comments about eddy .75L by CamelBak:
Great bottle to have. I switched the Groove's cap and filter to fit my Eddy with my school's name on it. Love it when the bottle is clean.Hate the bottle when it is time to clean, hard to tell when to clean. Straw gets moldy fast and is hard to remove. The gray part of the straw on the bottom right is extremely hard to clean and gets a bunch of mold in it. The underneath of the straw where it flips up gets clean is very easily dirty. Lastly, it is annoying to pull apart and clean 9 pieces of the bottle.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Amazing waterbottle!

Leaks All the Time!
By Anna
from Mankato, MN
I purchased this item brand new as I have heard great things about the Camelbak brand. I used my water bottle everyday. It's especially handy when I'm at work. The only major problem is that it is advertised at leak free and I have to deal with it leaking ALL THE TIME. I'll fill up the water bottle to the 750ml line, insert the lid with the straw and after awhile, I find water leaking out of the bite valve. Sometimes, I'll go to take a dink and spill water down my shirt because water somehow pools into the area where the bite valve rests. This is really frustrating to buy a product expecting it to be leak free and then have it leak ALL over you.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

loved everything EXCEPT the PLASTIC SMELL my water gets.
By V
from NYC
My baby likes this water bottle and valve (particularly), so I was happy to use it (especially when you don't need to force your kid drinking water during hot summer days, he just drank it himself)..So that was a win for me. it's easy to carry and i had it nicely strapped to the stroller.... everything worked nice! WE filter water so after distillation, water can stay "fresh" = without smell,taste for long time. usually gone within a day anyway. So imagine my surprise when I smelled the water in the camelback bottle after less than a day of use (after wash/refill)... ***THE SMELL WAS HORRIBLE!****** PLASTIC Smell coming from the water I'm giving to my child! THIS IS BEYOND FRUSTRATING! I distill water, and than this bottle spoils the quality...NOT COOL!
Great Product

Great Product!
By Hailey
from Charlotte, NC
I use my camelbak everyday from work to the gym! I love it a lot for the fact that it is spill proof and easy to carry but the only thing I don't like is how it doesn't keep the liquid cold for very long.

The best water bottle I have ever had
By Cmatt
from Triad, NC
My wife got me this bottle and I love it! It has helped me cut down on my soda consumption and is great to have at work, in the workshop, on road trips, really anywhere you want to take it! the only thing you have to watch out for is the bottle does sweat a lot, so make sure if you sit it down on something that cannot get wet to use a towel or coaster.
Great Deal on my eddy
By Gramc for grandmother Connie
from Cary, NC
the capacity of this bottle is a bit too big for my cup holder in my car!!
Great for a limited time
By The Water Enthusiast
from Annapolis, MD
Last summer I bought my first Eddy bottle at a campus store and it was great for the first 3 months or so. I love the straw and the bite valve, which made this my all time favorite water bottle for just about anything, especially working out. The lid opening is wide and great for adding ice into the bottle, it fits in most car cup holders, and withstands knocks and bumps without spilling all over the place. I drink a lot of water, so I was refilling it between 3 and 4 times a day everyday, and very rarely knocked it over as the bottom heavy design is very stable.However, after about 3 months of regular use it starts leaking out of nowhere. It starts out minor but just keeps going. The bite valve also progressively stops staying all the way down for completely unknown reasons. Around this time the lid also began to get stuck and I had to get help just to unscrew the lid, and this happens just with regular tightening of the lid. Within about 2 weeks of the first leaks, the bottle is constantly pouring water down the sides at the slightest movements and needs to be thrown away. At first I thought I had just gotten a bad bottle so I ordered a new one after trying and not liking a different water bottle brand for a few months. But the whole process repeated itself exactly as it had before. I still love the design of this bottle but I just wish it would last longer before falling apart, and I still have no idea why that started happening.

Rodney Crowell
While Crowell has probably gotten more attention in recent years for being the husband of Rosanne Cash, he is one of the most imaginative songwriters of the country-rock era. 'Til I Gain Control Again, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Shame on the Moon, Ain't No Money and Voila, an American Dream are samples of his memorable work. As a singer he has a less than overpowering voice yet manages some arresting performances, particularly of his own songs. This LP leans more toward the rock than the country side of his style, and it includes such notable examples of his composing as Past Like a Mask, When I'm Free Again (co-written with Will Jennings) and Looking for You (co-written with Mrs. Crowell). It also includes a crass song he did not write, She Loves the Jerk, by John Hiatt: "He's a no good so-and-so/ But she'll never let him go/ Though she knows it'll never work/ She loves the jerk." Even lyrics like that, insulting as they are, shouldn't substantially diminish this solid meat-and-potatoes album, which is direct and satisfying. (Columbia)

91 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - July/August 2009
($100; 70% carinena, 25% garnatxa and 5% syrah) Bright ruby. High-pitched aromas of red- and blackcurrant slowly give way to deeper plum and smoky minerals. Lively red and dark berry preserve flavors are impressively concentrated, with cured meat and graphite nuances contributing complexity. The plummy quality gains strength with air and clings to the long, juicy finish. I'd enjoy this on the young side, for its lush fruit. (Boutique Wine Collection, Philadelphia, PA)

The unlikely founders behind WhatsApp's rise
Credit: The Associated Press
NEW YORK — WhatsApp isn't your average Silicon Valley startup.
The company's founders Jan Koum, 38, and Brian Acton, 42, shun the media spotlight and are much older than your typical college dropout-turned CEO. And at a time when social media companies are focusing on advertising to generate revenue, WhatsApp rejects the idea of showing ads to the 450 million people who use its mobile messaging app.
The whopping $19 billion that Facebook is paying for the service is also unusual, even as other startups with no profit, or even revenue, are commanding sky-high valuations.
