I visited Getaway, at Southampton, in January 2014 and stayed on-board for two nights. This brand new ship had come straight from the shipyard, via Rotterdam. She was berthed at Southampton's 'City Cruise Terminal' before she crossed the pond to her home port of Miami. Getaway is the sister ship of Breakaway (both the 'Breakaway' class) which entered service in April 2013.
It is impossible to fully experience all of the 20+ dining options, bars and entertainment options of this big ship within a few days. This review will just feature some high-lights and my conclusions
The first thing that you notice when arriving at the cruise terminal apart from Getaway's size (big) is her colourful Hull Art. It was created by popular Miami modern artist and muralist David "LEBO" Le Batard. As the ship will home-port in Miami, much of the ships décor has a 'Miami' theme.
Getaway is an almost identical design to Breakaway, although some of the public spaces have been re-named/re-themed. 'Freestyle' has determined her design and she is packed with dining areas and bars. These often have an open-plan design, with some of the bars, and dining areas seamlessly blending into each other, sometimes without walls. It is quite an assault on the senses. What you do not get on NCL ships is any big 'wow' spaces such as tall Atriums, 'Royal Promenades', Parks or many double height rooms.
Getaway has 14 passenger decks numbered from 5-18. Deck's 6, 7 and the rear half of deck 8 accommodate most of the public spaces. The ship only has two stair towers/elevator banks, which is not ideal for such a big, long ship. However there are some stairs between decks 6, 7, and 8 amidships, at '678 Ocean Place'. This is a sort of mini-atrium with giant LED Chandelier. The elevators are large and efficient.
Décor: NCL have now dropped the prime colours and embraced a more classy 'Cappuccino lounge' style. Internally Breakaway has lots of tasteful brown wood (effect) and beige décor, often creating an understated look. In fact, some public spaces on-board Breakaway could easily be on-board a Celebrity or Cunard ship. There have been comments that Getaway is a little more subtle in terms of internal colours than Breakaway.
I saw 'Legally Blonde' in the main theatre, which is Getaway's signature show. It was a full production (1.5 hours) and features some excellent singers and dancers. It is definitely quite a few notches above some cruise ships almost amateur 'Red Coat' style entertainment.
Getaway's illusionariun (forward deck 6) is a re-branded space replacing Breakaway's Spiegel Tent, which resembled a big-top style circus tent. The illusionarium is a relatively intimate venue, with a circular stage and domed ceiling, hosting a magic show. The nice thing is that it is close-up magic in the round, with no dark back-stage area for the magicians to hide things. For a surcharge you get a set meal (surf & turn) and the show. The show was very good and featured a compare, a narrative and maybe five (?) magic acts. Very clever moving graphics were projected onto the domed ceiling, although this was done a few times too often.
To be honest I could have done without the narrative and extensive dialogue, but this will probably be edited in the future to make the show tighter. Some passengers felt the meal was mediocre, but I spent most of my time concentrating on the magic and not really noticing what I was eating too much.
Getaway is going to be a massive 'hit'. She makes 'regular' ships look boring. NCL are now providing direct competition for Royal Caribbean's newer ships. It's not just media hype, Getaway's design really does take NCL's 'freestyle' concept to the next level.
Getaway is built for 'fun'. She will suit those wanting a casual, but 'busy' cruise experience, packed with multiple dining and multiple entertainment options. Families are well catered for. She will not suit those looking for tradition, relaxation and tranquillity. NCL's dining flexibility is second to none, compared to the other mass-market cruise ships, although their food and service can be inconsistent at times.
It is worth remembering when you are comparing fares of the rival cruise lines, that NCL are market-leaders in the additional on-board surcharge. Although the many surcharges are optional, they are very tempting. However you are paying for 'choice'.
It is important to note that these big ships are designed on the premise that not everybody on-board will want to do the same thing, in the same place, at the same time. This premise largely works, but when it doesn't, expect queues and congestion. Breakaway is definitely a 'busy' ship. I do wonder how the 'Aqua-Park' might cope on a hot sunny day at sea, and 'The Waterfront' and 'H2O' on a warm evening.
Although a very simple idea,
Getaway's 'Waterfront' makes her much less 'inward' focused that some other mega-ships. After all cruising should be about connecting with the sea, at least occasionally.

Microsoft Surface Pro ReviewMicrosoft Surface Pro 8.5
Surface RT or iPad 4. Still, with its fully charged battery, we're able to inch out approximately 6 hours of normal usage, which primarily consisted of heavy web surfing and word processing with the brightness set to the 50% mark. Naturally, power users will want to charge this whenever the opportunity arises, but it's well in line with the performance of other similarly spec'd ultrabooks. Worth mentioning, too, is the amount of heat that the rear of the tablet generates during prolonged usage. It's not scalding, but it does make us wonder how it'll affect things over time.
It's been several months after the release of the Surface RT, and it's unknown how well Microsoft's slate was able to penetrate the market, since the Redmond based company hasn't been vocal about actual sales numbers. Regardless, it was something that Microsoft was banking on to take on some of the titans in the industry, but as we've witnessed, its fortunes have been unseen. In fact, the more that it's analyzed, it's fighting competition from tablets running rival platforms – as well from its own group in the Windows RT camp. However, we all knew that it was only a matter of time before the Microsoft Surface Pro would be released.
So, here we are now, in the presence of the fully equipped Surface Pro, which is sporting a higher starting price point of $899 for the 64GB version – while the 128GB model will set you back $999. In our recent history of tablets, those figures would spell instant death, since we normally perceive top-tiered tablets edging out at around the $500 mark. However, this isn't your typical tablet, especially when its guts are more ultrabook-like, which warrants the higher price point. Solely as a tablet, the one advantage it has over its brethren is the rich productivity aspect it offers over the crop – albeit, it's not the only Windows 8 tablet in town. And knowing how quickly things move in the industry, it wouldn't surprise us to find one of Microsoft's many partners to deliver that killer Windows 8 tablet
Despite the competition it's going to see from both sides, tablets and ultrabooks alike, the Microsoft Surface Pro has the brand recognition right now to propel itself above most of the crop. If you're looking for the all-in-one solution, there's no denying that the Surface Pro is intriguing and empowered to handle the needs of power users. Obviously, there are no compromises since it caters to both tablet and PC functions – on top of being a wonderful consumptive device! As we've witnessed, you're paying a premium price for a tablet in the Surface Pro, but what you get is an untethered experience.
In the back of our mind, though, we're torn still whether it proves to be more valuable than some other highly prized ultrabooks on the market, especially when you get physical keyboards, touchscreens, and extensive ports that make them far more versatile. Throwing in the Type Cover, you're looking at a final tally of $1,130 for the Surface Pro, which can score you a killer ultrabook. Still, if portability is placed highest on the totem pole, the Surface Pro easily has the edge over most ultrabooks.
Microsoft Surface Pro Video Review:
- Full Windows 8 Pro experience
- Vibrant and sharp looking display
- Distinctive and solid design
- Useful pressure sensitive stylus
- Peppy performance
- Terrible camera
- Battery life is less than other tablets
- Not enough apps make use of the stylus

To be honest I don't see all the fuss about a $1000 touchscreen windows device when you can get a very decent laptop or Ultrabook for the same price with 10 times the storage, more cable outputs and better battery life, which is not too kind on the Surface Pro.
Windows - laptop
iOS - tablet
Android - phone.
That's the way I see the best HW-OS match for portable devices.
7. feres13 (Posts: 306; Member since: 23 Dec 2011)
I agree with you, however i'd pick Mac OS for laptops since they can tun both windows and OS x
11. alterecho (Posts: 1098; Member since: 23 Feb 2012)
You mean mac hardware, since OS is compatible on it.
35. tmcblog (Posts: 19; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Macbook is sh*t... with the same price I can get a laptop with 2 more cores of processor, twice the memory, twice the storage and better GPU. The best thing is I can play battlefield 3 and have ubuntu OS that can be modified into MacOS X look & feel ;)
You can't play Battlefield 3 in Macbook :(
13. haseebzahid (Posts: 1853; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
lame its the best idea any company could think of bringing tablet to real useable form not make toys like ipads and androids
32. theokan (Posts: 4; Member since: 11 Feb 2013)
@ _Bone_
That's because you already have everything you need. People generally don't buy an SUV if they already have a van.
The real question is, if you can only have one device, would you choose the Surface Pro, the Windows laptop, or the iOS tablet? You may not personally choose the Surface Pro, but there is definately a market for it.
33. _Bone_ (Posts: 2154; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
I have a desktop and a phone and considering an inbetweener, but can't see picking up the Pro. Theoretically the W8 tabtop is the ideal device with all-around functionality, but HW requirements take a toll on the price and battery life. So I'm like "wait for the HD Nexus 7 / iPad Mini because they are priced so well, or an updated Nexus 10 for a little more", all great bang for the buck mostly covering my needs.
Even at $600 the Pro would face great competition, so where Microsoft succeeded delivering a user-friendly, modern touchscreen OS, they need to enter the competitive price game, because RT sales show that the iPad-Nexus range is spot on with the performance/pricing.
34. theokan (Posts: 4; Member since: 11 Feb 2013)
The most pricey thing on the Surface Pro is the Wacom tech, which costs $900 just by itself (Cintiq 12WX). Ironically it's the least thing that people care for unless you're a digital artist, then it's the best thing in the world because it's a Cintiq with a built in computer for only $1000.
I can see them lowering the price by half just by taking out the Wacom pen feature, but then at that price range they would be competing with their own Surface RT. I think RT should have never happened, they could have released a $500 Surface Pro without the Wacom tech, then a $900 version of Surface Pro with the Wacom for those who needs it in their industry.
I would still personally get the $900 version because I'm mostly buying it just for the Wacom.
36. _Bone_ (Posts: 2154; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Just curious, how much does the Note 10.1's pen feature cost? Actually that's one thing I always admired, to utilize the touchscreen with proper pen tech.
43. theokan (Posts: 4; Member since: 11 Feb 2013)
The Galaxy Note 10.1 is also Wacom and works great on Android, only downside is that it can't be used on a PC or Mac, so you can't take advantage of the Wacom tech for any work and development that's done on the computer.
Right now Wacom sort of owns a monopoly so they get to price their tech based on how badly people need them. Touch upgrade on the 24HD costs $1000 extra, while PC/Mac connectivity is worth much more than on phone/ tablet OS because of the profession industries that require Wacom as a mandatory tool.
The Surface Pro will compete with the Wacom Cintiq 12WX, they are very similar except Surface Pro is a full PC whereas Cintiq 12WX is just an input device. If Surface Pro costs any less I don't think Wacom would have allowed Microsoft to use their tech. They can't have a cheaper product borrowing their own technology competing with themselves. The Galaxy Note 10.1 and Note 2, on the other hand, don't compete with Wacom tablets because they run on Android and can't be used with industry software on PC or Mac, hence you can enjoy a really high quality penabled feature at less than $500.
If you don't absolutely need to run on a PC, the Note 10.1 with the Wacom digitizer is an amazing value.
47. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
This is a silly comment. A lot of people who have a van would def be into buying an Suv because they want to upgrade. Granted the suv isnt a lot more expensive and does everything the same.
The surgace pro would be a lot better at a more affordable price.
39. ahmed_ali_yossef2010 (Posts: 164; Member since: 26 Jul 2012)
there is ipad 4 with the same price why didn't any one say you'd better buy an ultrabook
40. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
I'd like to share my opinion:
Desktop - Windows (Mac Pro is outdated, I don't need another iMac screen, Mac mini just sucks)
Laptop - Macbook Pro (that retina display and the overall build quality is fantastic)
Full-sized tablet: iPad (Nexus 10 is just like a landscape N7... it just doesn't work right)
Small tablet- Android (This is the tablet size that actually works well on Android)
Phone - Android. We all know it.
48. ralexand56 (Posts: 3; Member since: 16 Feb 2013)
I would rather replace that laptop and tablet with the surface pro which has the added advantage of a excellent digitizer pen. No way you're going to get a ipad and a decent laptop with the surface pro specs for less than $1000.
54. JimmyMackey (Posts: 5; Member since: 26 Dec 2012)
Granted there are some comparisons that render your point valid, you have to give up some features that I rather like, such as the touch surface, smaller size and full Windows capability in a tablet-like device. I want something more versatile than my iPad, but just as powerful, so I can use it for both my work I do at DISH and entertainment. Now I use my iPad to watch my TV shows by using DISH Anywhere and my DISH Hopper DVR at home. I love it because I can watch TV while I'm on the train, through the internet and get caught up on TV watching when I usually don't have time at home.

5. ultimatebatman (Posts: 52; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
I'm not sure why Phone arena is reviewing what is essentially a full PC that detaches from it's keyboard. It's not even fair to compare it side by side with tablets that are 1/2 the price.
6. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
So almost one kilogram of weight isn't a disadvantage for a tablet?
It isn't even worth a mention?
That's brilliant, John
15. g2a5b0e (Posts: 3724; Member since: 08 Jun 2012)
Calling the Surface Pro just a tablet is akin to calling the Galaxy Note 2 just a phone. It's so much more, man. That critique doesn't work for a device that has as much in common with an ultrabook as it does with a tablet.

Agreed.. Is it a tablet darac? Wow

Well, it's no Nexus 10 which is superior in every way.

Yeah no... You are insane to even write that garbage..

Here's my opinion : First, given it's price this is closer to an ultrabook than a tablet
For an ultrabook : it doesn't have a great keyboard, the trackpad of the macbook air is alot better, the air has better I/O and a bigger screen for the same price, not to mention os x can run both windows 8 and os x, making it more flexible, it also has half battery life of the air, and isn't confortable to use on a lap, and is underpowered for me since you can't upgrade anything before or after the purchase (4Gb of ram is a big NO), also in the air you can adjust screen orientation while on the surface you're limited to what the kickstand offers, and all the weight is on the top while the keyboard is paper thin.
For a tablet : It has a TERRIBLE battery life, thick, heavy, inconfortable to use in portrait and the ipad shows more in either orientation, the ipad has 300000 apps MADE for it, designed for it that work perfectly, the ipad has also more accessories, and the multimedia ecosystem in far better on the iPad, also the ipad has a better screen and 4G LTE capability.

You say the iPad has more apps and more accessories.
We all know this isn't true. Don't forget it has a real x86 CPU and USB port.

Dude, you can attach any keyboard you want and mouse to the MS Surface.
24. freebee269 (Posts: 539; Member since: 10 Aug 2012)
you know what the cool thing about your opinion is? it still sold out in stores and online with microsoft having 1 million ready to sell the first day. that means your opinion isnt shared by alot of people. i still wonder why you feel the need to comment on most surface articles to try to bash the surface. do you get paid by apple to do it? it seems like it. one thing i've learned from our other convo on another surface article, you think your opinion is in the majority, the first weeks sales say it isnt.

The way you compare it to an ultrabook separately from a tablet is a form of double standard. The strength of a hybrid is that it combines features from both sides. The iPad doesn't even have a keyboard to be terrible at, and an ultrabook in portrait mode makes even less sense. With the Surface pro, it can transform between the two depending on what works better at a certain task without having to disrupt your workflow by switching devices, or worrying that if both devices can support the same file type.
You get to choose from a collection of 20+ years of legacy software development, the iPad store is still an infant in comparison. As far as accessory support, there are really only two kinds; those that support USB and those that don't. That pretty much separates the best from the worst.

I just left the apple store and the 11 inch mac book air has a best battery life of 5 hours. Just thought you should know the Pro is actually the same battery life since the demo units were running a loop in the background when the tests were performed.
12. clevername (Posts: 1436; Member since: 11 Jul 2008)
Basically if you wanna quick media consumption device, talking, apps, movies, music, and browsing, go for a tablet with a tablet OS. This isn't for you.
if you want a tablet with a full PC OS that lets you do whatever a desktop or laptop does, this is your cup of tea. The battery isn't much worse than the mid range laptops you'll get, but it does the job. Yes there are better alternatives. But that doesn't mean this is bad or useless. It could be better, but for what it is, it is a great machine.

Which is why I want a Surface RT (at $100-200 cheaper or included KB for Free). I have my laptop for other Programs outside of Metro.

Nice review
17. UrbanPhantom (Posts: 949; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
Most tablets are worthless toys, that are gutless. That includes the vaunted iPad, as well as a slew of fancy looking but entirely worthless Android tablets. Microsoft has finally created a tablet that destroys all others in terms of raw power, and it can run x86 software and games. I'd call that a big win for consumers...
42. dimil11 (Posts: 3; Member since: 13 Feb 2013)
You're wrong! For me, the iPad is more useful than my laptop and nowadays, I hardly use my laptop. I do almost all my work on the iPad such as presentations for my classes and write many documents. I find Pages and Keynote apps very easy to use on the iPad and with hand-writing recognition apps I convert everything into digital text in just one tap. The rate of success is about 20 to 30 wrongly relongnized words per 1000. No need to write in a specific way or each letter one by one I just write as I would on paper and as fast and the recognition apps will do their trick. So no need for typing or keyboards.
I'm lucky enough to be able to draw well so I rely a lot on my drawings for my presentations. Drawing and painting on the iPad is a fun and a pleasure. In just a few strokes I can depict something and then copy and paste it into my presentation.
Most importantly the iPad gives me the freedom to work as I like wherever I like. With battery life of about 10 hours even when I use power hungry apps like Pages and with just about 600 grams, carrying my iPad it is easy. By working when I commute and wherever I have some free time during my day at work... five minutes here and five minute there by the time I'm back home I'm done. And that's the reason I never use my laptop.
In my opinion Microsoft misses all the points of what a tablet should be. First, too heavy and very poor battery life, so not really mobile. The keyboard is not needed as hand writing can do the job better. Surface is designed for movies not for writing or drawing. The ratio of the screen is totally wrong. The keyboard cannot stand on your laps but nonetheless it's almost as big as a laptop. You'll be better off to get a laptop on the first place so you can get the full experience of a keyboard if you like keyboard. Travelling around with a keyboard that you can't use but only when on a desk it's just stupid. As for M. Office, I think Pages on the iPad is a lot better as it hasn't got all those useless features M.Office has and yet it converts a document into M- Office format if you need to open it with M. office. I don't see how Surface Pro cannot be a flop. It is useless from any aspect.
46. UrbanPhantom (Posts: 949; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
After reading your comments, I can tell you this much: the surface has the same wacom stylus technology as the Galaxy Note II, which means it most certainly is meant for drawing and writing. Also, it has enough power to run modern Windows software, as well as legacy programs. That's enough to convince me this tablet is the only tablet that is actually useful...
49. ralexand56 (Posts: 3; Member since: 16 Feb 2013)
Sounds like for your use case the pro craps on your ipad. The digitizer alone makes it better for drawing and you can also run photoshop on it.
19. Muzhhur (Posts: 260; Member since: 14 Sep 2012)
if you are a geek, theres no reason to gat any tablet, you will never get any better xperience from a laptop, also Windows 8 is superb OS, fast and simple
21. testman22 (Posts: 338; Member since: 03 Nov 2009)
I can really see the appeal of this as a working professional who travels frequently for my job. To be able to having something this convenient and portable would be great. However i think the windows 8 software has a few kinks to work out and the best hardware has yet to come.
22. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
If the Surface RT had this screen and a better CPU. I would have bought it over the Nexus 10. They screwed up though.
25. Edmund (Posts: 656; Member since: 13 Jul 2012)
shock horror, a decent score for once.
You android/apple clowns just don't get it, do you? Want a portable tablet for basic tasks like checking E-mail, messages, calendar events, news etc.. use Metro. Attach the keyboard and immediately it becomes a productive work-horse with virtually limitless possibilities.

I have my surface pro 128 coming hopefully within the week (hoping) I preordered it a good bit of time ago. This will be my everything work related PC. I've been waiting for this
28. BattleBrat (Posts: 1458; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
Windows, lock up? My Precision 490 running Windows 7 has NEVER locked up. Threw an SSD in it 8 months ago and never loked back. Apple/iOS/Mac people have to realize the world has caught up and surpassed Apple. I'm buying the Surface pro 128 as soon as back in stock, but the Lenove thinkpad X1 Carbon touch is tempting
30. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
also check out the Acer Aspire S7 touchscreen and Asus Tai Chi and their other touchscreen laptops. That Carbon is really sweet.
37. 7thspaceman (Posts: 1546; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
after checking out a Surface Rt and noticing that the Surface Pro has the same physical layout. I have come to the conclusion that the Microsoft Surface Pro is best used a small
"Portable computer" If folks use it in that capacity they will love it. to turn the Microsoft
Surface Pro into a Laptop convertible it needs a very strong Keyboard dock. it's 2 cover
Keyboards are cool looking and useful but are too weak to make it a LAPTOP CONVERTABLE. Microsoft has a Winner in the surface Pro if People accept the fact it's normal form factor is that of a tablet/portable computer with it's 2 type covers
41. nnaatthhaannx2 (Posts: 820; Member since: 19 Oct 2011)
You should do a 1 month update to your review.
Really intersting to see what new things pop up or what you find interesting after really getting used to the device
44. 7thspaceman (Posts: 1546; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
most people are missing the true facts about the Surface pro != folks the Surface Pro is a hybrid combo Tablet/ portable PC not a hybrid tablet/Laptop. 2=it's has the Electronic guts of a high end Intel i5 CPU ultra book that cost 1000 dollars or more don't believe me go price some of them. 3= because it has the guts of an Ultra book it has about the same battery life of an ultra book which 4 to 5 hours maybe 6 hours tops. 4= the Surface Pro has a full PC OS it for people who want to run full Windows software on a tablet computer.so you Android tablet and Ipad lovers are out of line even comparing it to your devices because these tablets are not what many Windows users want they want a tablet with 100 percent software compatibility with the windows software they use for Business or play. 4= The Microsoft surface pro is not the cheapest windows 8 tablet out there and some of Microsoft's OEM's have Tablet/laptop hybrids that some Windows fans like more than the Microsoft surface pro for instance the Lenovo Helix Windows 8 tablet can have an intel I7 cpu in it that makes it more Powerful than a Surface Pro
45. mrblah (Posts: 576; Member since: 22 Jan 2013)
I'd would buy one if the price wasn't to high, maybe after it flops I'll get a good deal off of ebay.

Where did you guys get that cool wallpaper?
52. insidethesurface (Posts: 1; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
@_Bone_ Some people still want to be able to use a Windows operating system with the keyboard and stuff. I think if people are interested in getting a Surface but don't want to cough up $1,000 then they should take a look at the Surface RT.

2000 Chevrolet Venture LS 4dr Minivan
LS my butt!!! I bought mine used 4 or 5 yrs ago, for $3,600.I have sunk more money into it then it is worth!!The automatic sliding door won't work right, the heat sucks real bad, the a/c stopped working a month after I bought it, I have had issues with the struts, brakes, ball barrings, anti-freeze leaks, anti-lock brakes, hard time starting this year after it has been driving, window not working now, my serpentine beat just fell off and a Head Gasket is leaking!!!!! Not putting any more money into it!!! only had 145,000miles!!!I drove two Plymouth Voyagers well past 200,000mi before losing them!Never again will I buy Chevy.
Well, the Chevy venture is the best thing I ever spent my money on. I had a lumina apv, it was great when I got it, then got the venture, then got the uplander (hated the uplander). Chevy ventures are the best of the GM minivans. It is great for hauling car loads of people to and from work (I car pool), and just a great van you can have!
Power door, comfortable seats, power seats, and chrome design!
Better acceleration, and rear air standard.
Worst vehicle my family ever owned, bought our van w/ 33,000 miles and never imagined we were buying a money pit! It has been a few years since we got rid of it, but I remember a tranny rebuild, intake manifold gasket failure, a bad compressor, ABS problems and others w/ brakes, power locks, wiper motors and blinkers going out constantly. Traded it for a Honda at 60k miles. Would love to give GM another chance. But this van failed my expectations. Bad bad memories of this van!
I can"t beleive it was built by GM. I've always had Chevys but this is the last! Foreign next. Bought it at 137'000 klms for a good price privately. The first drive to license it the fuel pump went. The very next time driving at night the headlights flickered, had to change the alternator. The power door locks don't work either, rear window wiper too, evap sensor on the gas tank, then the wipers stay in the up position when they're off, and the last is the airbag light is on as well. I only have 140,000 on it now, just waiting for the intake gasket to leak now. Oh also the blower motor resistor went and only have heat in high.
It's good on gas and peppy
Put some quality into your vehicles. Warranty would be great. Give a repair manual with it. Maybe give these to high school auto shops, they'll make great mechanics when they're done
An OK vehicle except for the intake gasket failures that they refused to warranty and the horrible resale value. Good for transporting kids and their assorted stuff. Electrical problems are showing up with regularity. Am experiencing some transmission trouble - it's starting to shift hard into overdrive. Due to price and mechanical issues i will not buy another one.
Very versatile.
GM must pay for their mistakes through the warranty process when problems occur through no fault of the owner or lose sales to other companies.

Born in 1959, Scott Weidensaul has lived
almost all of his life among the long ridges and endless valleys
of eastern Pennsylvania, in the heart of the central
Appalachians, a landscape that has defined much of his work.
His writing career began in 1978 with a weekly natural history column in the local newspaper, the Pottsville Republican in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, where he grew up. The column soon led a fulltime reporting job, which he held until 1988, when he left to become a freelance writer specializing in nature and wildlife. (He continued to write on nature for newspapers, however, including long-running columns for the Philadelphia Inquirer and Harrisburg Patriot-News.)
Weidensaul has written more than two dozen books on natural history, including his widely acclaimed Living on the Wind: Across the Hemisphere with Migratory Birds (North Point 1999), which was one of three finalists for the Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction. Other recent titles include The Ghost with Trembling Wings: Science, Wishful Thinking and the Search for Lost Species (North Point 2002), about the search for animals that may or may not be extinct; Return to Wild America: A Yearlong Search for the Continent's Natural Soul (North Point 2005), an ambitious journey to take the pulse of America's wildlife and wildlands, and The First Frontier: The Forgotten History of Struggle, Savagery and Endurance in Early America (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 2012).
Weidensaul's writing has appeared in dozens of publications, including Smithsonian, the New York Times, Nature Conservancy, National Wildlife and Audubon, among many others. He lectures widely on conservation and nature.
In addition to writing about wildlife, Weidensaul is an active field researcher whose work focuses on bird migration. Besides banding hawks each fall (something he's done for almost 20 years), he directs a major effort to study the movements of northern saw-whet owls, one of the smallest and least-understood raptors in North America. Most recently, he has joined a continental effort to understand the rapid evolution, by several species of western hummingbirds, of a new migratory route and wintering range in the East.
He lives in the Pennsylvania Appalachians.

Once you get past the dark nickel plated aluminum fins that overlap on multiple levels, resembling some sort of future-fantastic piece of hardware from the Dark Knight, what really makes the Xigmatek Thor's Hammer heatsink tick are its stacked heatpipes. Yes, stacked heatpipes.
"Standing 157mm tall, Xigmatek's Thor's Hammer heatsink tips the scales at 800 grams and has a rather boxy footprint of 120 x 116mm. It accomodates one or two 120mm fans that mount to the fins with special rubber vibration absorbing posts. No fans are supplied with the Xigmatek S126384 heatsink, allowing users to pick a high speed 120mm fan or ultra quiet model of their liking"

Own Security Issues
If I'm offline for a while it's because my bro is mad and shut the power down or w/e, I only want him off my room, I want my privacy, I've had it with him, he always lead my mind off things and then I'm like I can't do a damn thing, so enough is enough. Even if I have things clear, he always and I mean always damage my mind ._. then I'm pissed off, or lost what I was going to do, or I can't concentrate on things anymore, my mom knows this because I yelled at her about my security and privacy before, being said, I don't want him to care for me, no entering my room, no matter the reason, no calling, no cleaning, no anything, idc if it's an emergency or anything, I just want him out of me, idc if he lives on the house I am, I only want security and privacy on my room, and I'll get it one way or another, I want him off me, total independecy between me and him, I have my own things, he has his own things, the only thing he'll have shared from me is the internet because it's for the whole home, nothing more
I'd definitely agree that you're old enough to know how to look after yourself. I'd say get a a key-lock for your door if you have to so he can't even go in when you're not there. He could still be a nuisance outside the door if he wanted, though.
use headphones and hear some music while he tries to knock the door?
this will take longer than expected, I will remain inactive / offline for the moment until I can achieve this or any solution can be found
@moffit: my door already has a lock
@Firaragun: it won't help, he intends to break the door
You're brother's an arsehole, I can say that. Use barricades, babeh. (:<
your brother sounds like a creepy rapist o.o
I've been off for like 2 weeks, not really back yet, I'm currently at my parents home on laptop, hopefully, somehow I can get some sort of solution or something, I'm currently on while I can, I'll be offline for a while again after :/
* * * Update * * *
Current Status
Available most nights and some mornings on MSN / AIM / Yahoo and around the forums. Currently on my parents home and I decided to refuse totally to return to the other home, where I had been, I decided on no more, I'll not get anywhere close near him, I do not want more (inminent) fights while he even threats on killing me, breaking the door, w/e, I just had it to my limit of what I can handle.

Throughout the last set of videos, you have seen how just taking simple shapes, editing their edges, using the Move tool, Shear, and Bend can create a pretty nice-looking object. But what about creating something a little more organic, like a hose? How would you extend those polygons? I am working with version 6, and then we saved it incrementally to 001. So you can load that up. And then I'm going to save this incrementally again as version 2, and this is the one we are going to be editing right now. What I want to do is create a hose coming out from this piece right here that we created, that we used the Bend tool for.
So how would I do that? Well, I'm going to use first the Curve Extrude, and what I want to do is select that polygon. So let's go to the CenterHose, select that polygon, and then we are going to choose Curve Extrude. In order to keep this exactly where we want, we are going to go to a front view. So Ctrl+Spacebar, get to a front view. And then I am going to click right on that polygon, and you will see a little yellow dot appear. And I am going to pull up the properties, so you see what's happening.
Notice that we have got a Curve Path and a Path Generator. Don't worry too much about those properties for the moment. I am simply going to just click out here, and what's happening is an extrusion based on this curve that I am creating, and it allows me to generate the shape I need. And I am just going to come down here like this, and we will flip out the bottom. It's good, but it looks a little chunky though. So look down here in the Curve Path tab.
You can see mode is set to Add, which is what we just did. Now we can go to Edit, but as we do that, I want to note that you can very easily go into edit without actually choosing Edit mode. The only thing is you have to be very careful because if you click too far, you end up making another point. That's where Edit mode is actually more of a safety, where you can accidentally click outside and make another point. So what I can do with then is simply come in and edit. But I might feel that, well, one is too much.
Back to the mode, I will choose Delete, and I can click right on one of these little curve points and delete as needed. Perhaps this one too. And then I can come back to Edit mode and then shape this a little bit. It's important to understand that the amount of geometry you have will also help determine how the shape is. Also, if I pull this base point where I started, I can move this a little bit. So we want it to be right against this side of the base, and I want this a little straighter here and a little more curved here. And I will pull this down just so that it straightens out a bit and then pull this one.
It works pretty well. To determine the amount of geometry, come over here to the Path Generator, and we have Steps of 24. You can click on Automatic and see what happens, and notice that it puts less geometry in the length and a little more on the curve, and for most cases that works pretty well. If you are creating a very large set of tubes or pipes or cables, you are going to want that Automatic on, because it's going to help limit the unnecessary geometry. You can also just turn that off and punch in an exact number.
So we will double this to 48, and you will have a lot more geometry to work with. If you want to go straight like that, you want to bend it. You can work with those and try that out. I am going to go to Automatic. I think that's all we need for this, and I am just going to get the shape going. Once you play with this, you realize you're actually probably having a little too much fun making these shapes. I have actually made cords that lay on desks, mouse cords, things like that, because you can Ctrl+Spacebar to a perspective view, and if you are building this with something else, you can very easily move these points to a different aspect ratio, and to a different axis.
Like, let's say we take this one and we push it this way. You can move it to any place you want. It doesn't have to be flat. And that's where you are going to work with the Path Generators just a little bit more. That's going to go it for this one. We are going to click on that Curve Extrude to turn it off. And notice that the bottom polygon is still selected. That's because we started with the selection upfront, and we have extruded it all the way through. So with this bottom one selected, I am just going to press Ctrl+X to delete it, because we want this hose to be open; otherwise the chemical inside the fire extinguisher can't do its job.
But we have no material; we need to thicken this up. So how we do that? With the Thicken tool, and that's under Polygon. Let's go to the Polygon tab, choose Thicken, click once to activate, and you can very easily just grab these handles and go like that. Very, very nice tool! And that way we have got a nice thick handle and hose to work with. And I'll just make sure that the top is not too extruded. Good. You have to be carefully using Thicken, a lot of times the polygons can overlap each other. What might happen if you are free-forming it, you will get kind of this look, see, at the bottom here.
So just be really careful with this, and that's why I like just pulling directly on these tools. This is the Offset, and the red is the Scale. So we just need to Offset it just a little bit--not even that much. Then, just like we have done before, we can go to the Edge mode and I can double-click to select the entire loop, hold the Shift key to select that entire loop, press B for bevel, and let's just bevel that edge just a little bit. And then spacebar turns off the bevel, and click to deselect and you have just made a nicer little shape there.
Just like that, we have created a nice hose for this, but there is one more thing we can do to help spice this up, and that's creating sort of a metal brace here. So first thing, notice that there is an asterisk at the very end of this scene file; it means we've made changes not yet saved. So Command+S or Ctrl+S to save. Then I am going to take this edge first, and we are going to choose Geometry and Slide. This is a tool we have used earlier. And we are going to click and drag, and we are going to slide that edge down. Give ourselves just a little more control.
Then we will click to deselect. We are going to double-click this edge and Shift+Double Click this edge, and then we will choose, under Edge tab, Remove, and click OK. And that gives us a nice section to work with. You can also press the Backspace key on your keyboard; that will also remove. So now I am going to select a couple of polygons like this and press the L key for Loop. Then we are going to bevel these. We are going to press the B key. But we don't want to ungroup these, so you don't want this.
That's not what we are doing. We want to make sure that Group Polygons is on in the Bevel properties. And I am going to click to activate the bevel, and I am literally just going to shift it out--we don't even want to inset it--just like that. This is going to be that little metal brace that's going to hold the hose. As I do this, I want to be thinking about the surfaces that we are going to put on here, because as you get your geometry more complex, it's going to be a little harder to select those particular polygons and make them set to a specific material. So let me undo real quick. And I am going to press the M key and we are going to call this HoseClamp. And we will just click OK, and that will create a different surface for those polygons.
Then we will activate the bevel, and we are going to just shift those out. Spacebar to deselect and then click, and then we will come back to Edges, kind of the same thing, and I am going to double-click that edge, Shift+Double Click this edge, and we are going to press the B key, and we are going to bevel this just a little bit. I don't want to bevel this inside edge, because what will happen is that will make it look like it's attached, kind of like we did with the base here, like it's molded in; instead we want this to look like it's holding.
We want that clamp to be all the way around it. Next, we will go back to Polygon mode, select these two, and press the L key. You are going to move your mouse up. We are going to bevel these. Click again, but this time we are not going to use the Shift; we are going to actually Inset. Then we are going to press the spacebar to turn off the bevel, and now we are going to bevel again by pressing B. So we turned it off, and we turned it on to reset it. This time turn off Group Polygons, and what that means is when we click to activate the bevel, we can actually use both our Inset and our Shift.
I am going to Inset these down about 9 millimeters, and I am looking at my values right here. Then to reactivate the bevel, you can turn it off or on, or hold the Shift key and click. And this time just grab the blue handle and shift these out a bit, and then you can also inset them if you like, like that. Spacebar turns off the bevel and then click to deselect. And so what you've created is a nice little metallic little ring there. Very, very simple, but all based on that exact same polygon that we had pulled out and made the hose with.
Later when we get to surfacing, we will use the same model and I will show you how we can put black plastic on the hose, but then we can put metal around that clamp. But for now, this model is finished, so I am going to make sure I save it. So we have now created an average-looking fire extinguisher, but we've used very basic geometric shapes: We have used a box and a cylinder, that's it, to create this whole thing. And using a combination of modo tools, from Curve Extrude, to Edge Bevels, to Booleans, we have created a nice shape that I think is relatively recognizable.

The 76ers have sunk to a 7-15 record, but NBA opponents have noticed that they don't go down without a fight.
The latest compliments came from the Los Angeles Clippers after a 94-83 win over the Sixers on Monday at the Wells Fargo Center.
The Clippers, who led by as many as 21 points in the game, saw the Sixers cut the lead to seven in the fourth quarter.
"We all hear and see articles on how teams are supposed to tank and stuff like that, but that hasn't been their mind-set at all," said Clippers all-star Blake Griffin, who had 26 points and eight rebounds. "You can tell that from the jump, how hard they play."

Oct 10 '15Quote from mikimotoI completely agree with this statement. I grew up around lawyers, so I know a little about things like this. He's right, pleading guilty puts your case in different ballgame. Hence I mentioned in my last statement to be very careful in making decisions that can potentially affect your case. Remember that everything you do relating to this case changes the tides, either positively or negatively. I'm sorry to tell you this, but the law and the people enforcing them (BON for this matter) aren't very forgiving. I'm not sure if not talking on a cellphone during NCLEX is actually a law, but I know it's a very important RULE that everyone needs to follow, and I think BON takes that very seriously. You need to be assertive. You can't just rely on BON's mercy. Your whole career is at stake. You need to read and learn as much as you can about the law, and about your case. And yes, a sound LEGAL advice would be very beneficial.As it is, your nursing license/career is at stake.
You already spent so much time and $$$ on your education and testing fees.
Do you really want to skimp out on this and rely on online forums for help?
You need a sound LEGAL advice. As you've mentioned, you did plead guilty earlier.
By doing so, you placed yourself in a different ballgame.
Oct 10 '15
I'm so sorry to hear about this. It must be very stressful for you. I'm no expert with nursing laws so I cannot give a specific advice. But if I were in your situation, I would read as much as I can about nursing law and jurisprudence in your state. It's different in every state. You need to understand the law so you can defend yourself better, and you don't get screwed over. Be very careful in making decisions. Don't make drastic decisions that could potentially affect your case. Also, I think it would be very beneficial if you seek the advice of a lawyer. I hope you will be able to resolve this soon. Good luck!

Jones Carbon Flagship, need help to setup
Just stumbled on a close out sale and bought a 164 Carbon Flagship as my first board, with some NOW IPO and Burton IONs.
my first 5 days snowboarding has been a howl and progression quick.(+30 yrs skiing, skateboarding and Kitesurfing might have helped ?!)
I've tried two diffferent setups 1" setback and 22" +15/0 at first , and later on the marks 23,5" +18/0. With the latest setup the board turn almost by itself on the groomed stuff but was harder to handle in untracked stuff.
Scanning the forums I understand you can ride with almost any setup and it's a matter of getting used to one.
BUT as I now have to chance to start out "right" from the start :yahoo: and learn from everyone else, I would be extremly greatful for any tips on the ideal setup for this board (should there be one)
I'm 6'6" 210 if that could be a factor choosing the correct setup
Going to a Carbon Flagship after only 5 days of snowboarding is crazy. I don't think the board will be that much fun for you. Its a stiff mother meant for expert riders. I would have picked something more with a flex of 5 or 6 tops, twin, and forgiving. Not to say you cannot master the board in due course, but you certainly have your work cut out for you. Good luck. :bowdown:
Try 24" stance 18/-9 angles
@tonicusa , tnx for the tip. Grabbing the screwdriwer right away :thumbsup:
@arsenalfan, tnx for the concern . I din't go to that board AFTER 5 days, I bought it an started snowboarding on it, and have done 5 days on it. :)
(payed 200$ for the board new, so no big loss if it hadn't worked out)
I would say it's been a great beginners board for me. Half of the time Iv'e been on icy man made stuff and the edge hold is really confidence building.
Already done some icy black runs, powder in the trees and 2 foot of heavy new snow and it seams as it can handle all pretty well.
Over time I believe it can be a bit on the short and narrow side, as it's for powder days that i started boarding
... or try something + on the rear leg, e.g. +6 :)
I have a carbon flagship 158 and here is my stance
I'm 5'9" and 150lbs.
My inseam is roughly 30.5"
I have size 9.5 Burton Ion or Driver-X
I have Now IPO bindings (stiff bushings) size Medium
I ride front +12 rear -6
I have not measured the exact width of my stance but here is how I set it up.
I started at the reference stance and moved my front-binding towards the center of the board 1 hole.
I started at the reference stance and moved my rear-binding towards the center of the board 1 hole.
This works really well for me but everyone is different.
OP, As for $200 brand new we hate you.
Now for shits and giggles demo a soft rockered board and try to do a few surface spins, Ollie's etc, just so you know what that's all about. And try a rockered or hybrid shaped powder board, if powder riding is truly your goal the flagship isn't really the perfect deck, rocker and taper really make for good powder shapes.
Back on topic. As you can see from the few responses already, ask 10 people for setup advice and you'll get 10 different answers. It's easy enough to alter binding placement that you should just keep trying different positions until you find something you like.
I am really impressed and greatful. Thank your for all your answers.
Looks like I need to try out some both pos and neg rear footing, and experiment a bit with width :)
I do understand I havn't got me the most playful board, but I'll never intended to hit neither rails, kickers or even riding switch for any longer time, but be sure I'll try some different boards as soon as the opportunity is there.
The cheap price was due to last day of a close out sale at a store in Norway , wasn't aware that it was a steal at the time but happy finding out later :)

Activision: Sony's Move and Microsoft's Kinect Are Too Expensive
While listening to the executives at the major video game companies is fun (and revealing), it's also insightful to look at the world's major video game publishers, too. They're just as intrinsically wound to the market as the manufacturers of those consoles, too, considering that without the games, there wouldn't be much need for the consoles. And while E3 is over, we're still wading in some of the news from that major conference. Or, more accurately, some of the news due to its announcements.

Usa Cerca per trovare ulteriori dettagli riguardo alle persone nella tua storia familiare.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 10: Using Name Variations to Find a Record
You may have asked yourself: "I am searching everywhere, but I can't seem to figure out where my ancestors are or why their names keep changing. How do I know where my ancestors are?" Immigration, challenges with reading or writing, or simple spelling changes made between generations are a few reasons that family names changed over time. Name changes can cause your research to hit a brick wall. In this episode, Jesse and Tom will show you some reasons why family names change over time. You will learn how to use online forums, research locations, and recognize markings on records that will help you broaden your search and find your ancestors.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 11: Find Help from Others Online
You may have asked yourself: "I've been trying to stay excited, but I just feel discouraged. How can I enjoy my genealogy and find more success?" Researching alone can be tedious and discouraging. In this episode, Jesse and Tom will show you how working with others online and in person can recharge your family history research and help you discover more information about your family. You will learn how to use collaborative websites like wikis, forums, and online community family trees to connect with other people who may be searching the same family tree.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 12: Write It Down
You may have asked yourself: "I keep finding the same records over and over again. What am I doing wrong?" "I feel like I've found these records before, but I am not positive. How can I avoid wasting effort looking for things I've already found?" When research is not written down or good notes are not kept, it can be easy to repeat the work you've already done. In this episode, Jesse will show you the importance of writing things down and keeping good notes. You will learn what to record and how to record it so you don't do the same research over and over.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 13: Organize Your Records
You may have asked yourself: "I find lots of great information, but when it comes time to write it in my pedigree or share it with someone else, I can never find it. What can I do to keep better track of my hard work?" Poor organization and poor note keeping can result in frustration, mistakes, lost information, and more work. In this episode, Jesse and Tom will show you some examples of organizational systems for genealogical information and the benefits of developing your own. You will learn how to find a system that works for you and organize your digital and physical files so you can find your records easily.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 14: Understand how records are created
You may have asked yourself: "I have a lot of records. How do I know the information I've gathered is right?" Some records are created years after an event occurs, making it difficult to know if the information is correct. In this episode, Jesse and Tom will show you the importance of making sure your information is accurate as well as some simple steps you can use to evaluate the information you've gathered. You will learn how to use specific records and resources that will help you evaluate the information you've found.
5 Minute Genealogy Episode 15: Share with Others
You may have asked yourself: "Why would I share what I've been researching with others?" "Why would they care?" "How can I share my family history?" Sharing research can answer questions, fill in gaps, connect living relatives, and get others involved. In this episode, Jesse and Tom will show you the fun and importance of sharing your discoveries with others. You will learn how to share using online resources and some helpful hints and ideas from researchers like you.
