This is incomparable to other hosting providers.
I think we have all seen an ad or two for this host. They are everywhere and they seem to have the best prices that is for sure. The problem that I had with them is the support, just took too long to get help.
I used this site at first because I saw an ad in a business magazine. It was an ok experience, but as soon as I was able to move my sites, I did.

instead of the blonde look she has now. She looks so hot with darker hair

Just make your Parts Express online purchase total more than $100.00 in merchandise and we will ship it fast and ship it free to you.
Free Shipping Offer Details/Exclusions:
WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. This warning is part of our effort to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (known as "Proposition 65"). The warning does not mean that our products will necessarily cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. While we believe our products are not harmful when used as designed, and we rely on our suppliers to help with this effort, we also provide these warnings to comply with Proposition 65.
Proposition 65 is a far reaching law and applies to any company that operates in California, sells products in California, or manufactures products that may be sold in or brought into California. Proposition 65 requires warnings to accompany any product that contains or may contain any of 800-plus chemicals appearing on the list administered by California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), a part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The list includes naturally occurring and man-made chemicals. Many of the chemicals listed under Proposition 65 have been routinely used in everyday consumer items like (thermoplastic elastomer coated) wires, cables, power cords, plugs and connectors for years without documented harm. On rare occasions, listed chemicals are even "delisted."
Proposition 65 imposes strict penalties for noncompliance. While California establishes "safe harbor numbers" for listed chemicals, the costs of individually testing products that Parts Express sells and distributes is prohibitive (particularly when the list of chemicals is so expansive and subject to change on an annual basis). As a result of the steep penalties and because there is no penalty for providing an unnecessary warning, Parts Express (like some other companies doing business in California) decided to provide the Proposition 65 notice out of an abundance of caution. For more information about Proposition 65 we suggest that you visit: http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/background/p65plain.html

As technology has evolved and more and more work is completed using computers, many workers have found themselves in sedentary office jobs. Leigh Stringer, author of "The Healthy Workplace," says it's not that we aren't working hard, but that "what our minds and bodies need at a basic level is in conflict with our work style. We are so focused on work, on getting things done, that we've changed the way we eat, move and sleep in a way that is actually counter-productive."
According to Stringer, taking care of worker health and wellbeing is one of the most effective ways to increase employee productivity and engagement. As an example, think back to a night when you got a full night's sleep and compare that to a night when you stayed out a bit too late with friends. How did you feel the morning after your night with friends? Probably not bright-eyed and bushy tailed, ready to take on the challenges of the day. It's important to put your health first, as everything hinges on that baseline.
So what are some of those unhealthy habits that we need to break? In this slideshow, Ms. Stringer offers up a comprehensive list of the "don'ts," with suggestions on what to do instead.

HOBOKEN — A real estate investment firm has reportedly scooped up an apartment complex —one of the highest assessed properties in the city— for $110 million.
DSF Group purchased 800 Madison Apartments, a 217-unit complex located in the northwest section of the city, real estate marketer Holliday Fenoglio Fowler L.P. announced on Wednesday. The complex sold for $110 million, NJBiz reported.
The complex ranked among Hoboken's highest assessed properties in 2013. According to the city's tax assessor's office, the complex is valued at $21.8 million. Hoboken's equalization rate — 30.93 percent— placed the complex's market value closer to $93 million.
800 Madison was built in 2008 and previously sold in 2011 for $96.5 million, according to tax records. The previous owners are listed as SPUSV5 Madison LLC.
The apartment complex includes a courtyard swimming pool, an outdoor patio, two rooftop terraces, a fitness center, a resident lounge and private garage parking, according to HFF. This purchase represents DSF's third real estate acquisition in the greater New York area in the past year.
"We are excited to further expand our portfolio in one of the strongest markets in the country," Josh Solomon, president of The DSF Group, said in a statement.

Former Vermont fire chief faces embezzlement chargeThe Associated Press | February 26,2013BENNINGTON — A former Vermont fire chief has been accused of fraud and embezzlement stemming from a department-sponsored raffle.
Bennington Police Chief Paul Doucette says people who won prizes in the raffle never received them. They also say money paid for raffle tickets was never turned over to the department.
Joseph Hayes was Bennington Rural Fire Department chief. He lost his bid to be re-elected as chief last month.
The Bennington Banner reports (http://bit.ly/XDg3A5) Hayes was cited for false pretenses and embezzlement. His wife, Angela, was cited as being an accessory to the false pretenses charge.
Hayes is on probation after pleading guilty last month to a disorderly conduct charge. That stemmed from an incident at an emergency scene last June where Hayes threw a flashlight at a vehicle.MORE IN This Just InLUDLOW Black River took an early 1-0 lead on a long skipping shot from Drew Kubisek.

An acquisition/merger review has a timeline of roughly six months. This is
a rough estimate as depending on complexity, some transactions can take more
than 18 months to review.
Usually, it will take three months to complete a review of the transaction.
At that point in time, the division will schedule a public hearing, with a public
notice of the hearing typically being anywhere from two to four weeks. A public
hearing is not required by statute, but it is division policy to hold a hearing
to allow for all concerned parties to be heard in regards to a transaction.
Once the public hearing is held, there will be a public comment period that
normally runs from one to two weeks. At the conclusion of the public comment
period, the division will review all comments and relevant information. After
this final review, the division will issue an order to either approve or disapprove
the transaction.
Statutorily, the effective date of the transaction cannot take place until
60 days after the order of approval is signed.
Depending upon the companies involved and the complexity and size of their
organizational structures, there may be additional processes needed that would
push the review of the transaction beyond the average timelines explained above.
Depending on the individual transactions, this could include hiring outside
parties to review the transaction, either in whole or specific parts, which
would require a bid for Request for Purchase, which can take up to 60 additional
When the division receives a Form A Statement of Acquisition, it is made available
online as soon as possible. However, an initial review is required and this
can take a couple of weeks.
The division strives to make all public records, including public comment,
related to mergers and acquisitions available online. These records can be found

locate is perfect, bu tthe hotel was fully booked and the restaurant was very busy and not well ventilated
Good value.Central location. Friendly, helpful owner. Nice view of the hills from the rooms at the back of the hotel.
Room a bit old fashioned and dark, but that wasn't a big problem.
The staff went out of their way to be friendly and courteous - English wasn't widely spoken but we celebrated both a birthday and valentines day at the hotel, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs - including the fact that I am pregnant. The service was excellent. The food also was outstanding quality for the price of the overall package.
Nice homy bio breakfast with musli collection, some bio chesses, self-made marmelades and sausage; not overflowing selection, but decent enough; very friendly and inviting hotelier family with a "no-problem" attititude, made the stay a positive experience; nice small sauna, owner was flexible to switch on "on demand"
Rooms are apparently following a concept but could also be called old-fashioned or tacky; our room had a floor carpet which I find not very healthy/clean; no fitness facility besides table tennis
The owners were very friendly and helpful and explained everything very well, it was in a quiet location and the food was fresh, local and organic.
The staff were incredibly friendly as soon as we arrived and throughout the entire stay...the food at the hotel was very good as was the service...the room was perfect and well worth the price I paid...the skiing was incredible with more snow than I have ever seen
The hotel recently won an international guest hospitality award, and I can see why. I think I was one guest who just didn't get that service. The hotel was clean, well-kept, in a great location and had great services. The guesthouse had a lot of festivities for New Years and was in a great location to enjoy a view of the valley during the fireworks.
There was a mistake with # of folks in my party, but that was my fault and the hotel was accomodating to that for an extra 22 euros a day. However, after that, my friend and I felt like we were inconveniences for the hotel manager. We felt like outcasts. I had to always hunt her down for requests and remind her of services we needed. Other guests were constantly doing things in the restaurant, but we were never really offered those services. Possibly I should have spoken out more about requesting access, but I just didn't feel that welcomed to do so. Our host spoke English, but I think it was a bit of a hindrance to deal with us as the only American group there. I needed access to a phone and internet and was told to walk two blocks to use a payphone. Despite having working wireless in the hotel, guests were limited to using the manager's laptop. It was difficult to locate the manager to use it, and when I finally did it seemed like I was being more of a bother and then was told it didn't work and I could go into town to an internet cafe. All in all, I think I was just the one group that didn't start on the best foot. I believe the hotel is in a great place to enjoy the activities in the area and I think that the staff and the hotel are truly good people who offer great service. Just my poor luck that I didn't get it. It was New Years kind of busy and they can't please everybody all of the time.
Very "gemuetlich" and the kitchen was superb.
A home away from home!! The family was wonderful and very hospitable and they spoke English (phew!!). The food was delicious and even had ample vegetarian choices. The architecture was very tasteful and the place had a lot of character, and the proximity to the ski lift and slopes was extremely convenient. it was simply super, we plan to go there every year.
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

Talk:Pipeline (computing)
|WikiProject Computing
|(Rated Start-class)
There is a lot of duplication and insconsistency among pages related to filters and pipelines:
I will try to condense these pages into a sensible set, if no one does it first.
Jorge Stolfi 16:45, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
I would prop suggest removing the assembley line analogy and replace it with a more detailed description of a pipeline in a computing context. 11:08, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Changed the description of software pipelines. It originally stated that these used the output stream of one process to feed the next process, and linked to the [process (computing)] article. The term 'operation' is a better description as a process is not necessarily what is being called, even if you can invoke an operation that requires a new process. In Unix it is often just a simple operation that completes within the current shell process that is having its output redirected to the input of the next operation. Other software implementations might not even use 'processes', so the term operation provides a more generic/abstract idea with which to describe this. :) Theshowmecanuck (talk) 02:21, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

I probably won't be diving too much into my husband's income here on the blog (I'll say what he makes but I'm not going to break it down by job or anything…), but I did have a hand in getting his business up and running here in North Carolina so I wanted to share how to start a successful handyman business.
Starting a successful handyman business isn't hard in itself, but running it is. My husband is only one month in and currently has SEVEN jobs booked (and he's completed about six already). When he worked for himself in Arizona about three years ago, he would have maybe two jobs booked in advance…maybe.
Take a look at what we've been doing differently…
Steps to Starting a Successful Handyman Business
STEP 1: Get your business license
Pick out a name for your business and make sure it's not already taken. We chose Brookstone Painting and Residential Services. Get your business name registered in your state, then obtain a license in the city you're going to be working. While this can seem confusing at first, it's really pretty easy. The forms are all printed online and we had to make two trips to downtown Charlotte and one trip to the city municipal building. It took about 2 days total for everything to be taken care of.
Tip #1: Just do a Google search on "How to get a business license in [your state here]" and you'll find exactly what you need.
Tip #2: Build a website for your business. You can use Bluehost which costs just $3.49 per month and they give your domain name for FREE! Nowadays, you have to have a presence online. Even if your page is basic, people need to be able to find your business on the internet.
Here's my tutorial on How to Start a Website for Your Business.
STEP 2: Get business insurance
We got a basic insurance policy for $850 for the year. This protects my husband and his business in case of an emergency. It's always best to get insurance – plus you can advertise that you're "licensed and insured in the state of North Carolina."
STEP 3: Get a business truck
This was the most time-consuming step for us and hopefully you can skip it if you already have a working vehicle. We sold my husband's truck in AZ because we only wanted to drive one car across the country. We found a truck here that he liked, but in order to purchase a vehicle you have to have your driver's license in that state. Makes sense – so off we went to get our new licenses. In Arizona, they print them for you the day that you're there. No waiting on the mail; no temporary licenses. Here in NC, they give you a temporary license and mail you the actual one. We couldn't buy the truck until we got the license and unfortunately it took almost two weeks for them to get here. Major bummer, but the extra free time allowed us to build him a website and get working on advertising.
STEP 4: Advertise!
Confession: So far we have only advertised on Craigslist. Yes, Craigslist, and that alone has generated SO MUCH business for my husband! In fact, I stopped posting ads a few days ago because he's just gotten so busy (and what can I say, I miss having him around!). We set goals regularly and decided we're not going to branch out on advertising until January 2015. And honestly…if Craigslist is still generating good, quality customers, there's no point in paying to advertise when we can do it for free.
STEP 5: Purchase tools AS NEEDED
We've spent close to $1500 on tools, but instead of buying them all at once, we decided to buy them as he needed them. A paint sprayer was one of the first things he needed. The one he liked was close to $1,000, but what do you know – we found one on Craigslist for $175! This past weekend, he needed a pressure washer which also costs $1,000. Unfortunately, Craigslist didn't have anything available, so we knew we were going to have to buy one new. We went to Home Depot and they didn't have the $1000 one he wanted, but they did have one for $800 available. Me, being the cheapskate that I am, asked for a discount on the $800 one since they didn't have the one we came for. Just like that – we got 10% off and our total, including taxes, was $779!
STEP 6: Report all your income, expenses and mileage
One disadvantage (that's also an advantage) of owning your own business is you have to keep track of EVERY expenditure. Gas and tools can be written off, which is great. You can also write off part of your home if you have an office, your work truck and every other expense that comes with owning the business. We keep a few different excel spreadsheets to track everything. Hopefully, come April (we're not filing quarterly as of now since we just started) we won't owe too too much.
Tip: Every time John gets paid, we put 25% of that money into a separate savings account. That's our tax money, and as a bonus – if we don't owe all of it to the government – John can either reinvest that money into his business by buying new tools, we can add more to our personal savings account or maybe we will even take a fun family vacation!
And that's it! Owning your own business is a lot of work (John's worked two 12-hour days this week so far and has a few more long days to come), but to us and our family it's worth it. He's taking the entire week of Thanksgiving and Christmas off, and if I need his help with a doctor's appointment or anything else, he can come.
I also recommend setting goals along the way. Where do you want your business to be in 1 year? 5 years? 10 years? For us, we know we don't want John doing all of the labor himself for every single job. In 2015, we're going to hire a few people so John can more focus on advertising, bidding and doing final walk-thrus of the jobs. Plus, he can realistically only do so much labor himself – which means his income has a cap. If we contract the work out or hire employees, his business will complete more jobs and therefore be able to make even more money. You have to spend money to make money, right?!
And just as a little sneak peak into how we're doing with our October goals – John is blowing his goal out of the water this month!! Big things are in store for him, I just know it.
Do you run a small business?? Any tips for us?!

Why do we eat hot dogs at sporting events?
Proudly serving made-to-order enlightenment in a drive-thru world.
Updated: June 9, 2003, 3:11 PM ETBy By Answer Guy
Gabriel Schechter, researcher, Baseball Hall of Fame: Hot dogs themselves go back to the 1850s, and the first hot dogs in ballparks appeared in the 1880s or 1890s. A guy named Harry M. Stevens is supposed to have introduced them to the Polo Grounds in 1901. Any idea why? Well, they're easy to cook and carry. They're not unwieldy, like, say, a Philly cheese steak. Hey, don't be talking bad about Philly cheese steaks! Sorry. Hot dogs are cheap, too. I've got a photo here from a game in the 1940s, and it says 15 cents for a hot dog. Sweet. Of course, nowadays you've got your Fenway Franks, Dodger Dogs and what have you. Personally, I'd rather have a bratwurst in Detroit or Milwaukee. Can I get that to go? Bill Himmelman, NBA historian: I think serving food at sporting events started with baseball, and baseball pioneered the hot dog. They're just about as American as it gets. They're German, actually, from sausages made in Frankfurt. Yeah, but you know what I mean. Do I?

Unless you've been living in the wilderness for the last year, you'll know that the most important weekend of the musical year is upon us. So get your wellies, and we'll see you there (or here!)...
Dear Virtual Festivals Readers,
Alright, now check it all again. Do you have the tent, do you have the sleeping bag? Remember, you're not taking the girlfriend, save space, take beer and get a cheap one there. Phew, looks like we're sorted then.
If you're anything like us here at VF HQ you're in a right panic over last minute Glasto preparations. At least you don't have the daunting task of covering the bestest and biggest music event around to an expectant public of thousands and the music industry and media around the world. Luckily, as seasoned festival pro's, we should be fine. As long as we have power plugs backstage, enough booze and it doesn't rain too much…
It does all look set to be the most fantastic experience of our lives though. There may not be REM, Radiohead, or Oasis headlining, but come on, greatest hits sets from Stereophonics, Ash and Charlatans, will be top. We've all liked them at some point. Plus, all the fantastic up and coming talent on show will more than detract from the other goings on, and let's face it, Glasto is not just about the great music. I'm not gonna drivel on about how much more there, you'll just have to see it for yourself either at the festival itself or here online.
So what do we hope to get out of Glastonbury? I just wana lose my fucking mind and escape from everything for the weekend. Luckily, they've been very selective with the passes this year, meaning that the normal brand of backstage scum that clogs up lesser events will be forced to stay at home and enjoy the festival from the comfort of their computer with www.virtualfestivals.com.
I wanna discover some new bands, I wanna meet a load of my friends and I wanna make a load of new ones. Last time, I found love, discovered that Embrace are fantastic after a bottle of sherry and was part of the biggest ever Main Stage crowd for Chemical Brothers.
Glastonbury is a dream come true, and I know that everyone here at Virtual Festivals is as grateful as can be for the incredible opportunity we have to experience it all first hand, and best of all, that we have the chance to share it all with you, through the most comprehensive selection of photos and words which will be live on-site as they happen.
As I wirte this, the cameras are charging, the phone is constantly ringing, and I have to contemplate going home and getting all my stuff to be in west London in six hours' times. My only real advice is to fucking have it this weekend. Check you ave everything, make sure your phone works and don't forget to come and find us in the photo pits, backstage area or out in with the crowd soaking up the sun and the atmosphere.
We hope you have as much fun as we will,
See you there, or here!
Andrew Future, on behalf of the Virtual Festivals Crew,
Glasto 2002 sqadron.

While it's well documented that Nintendo turned down an exclusivity deal on the first Skylanders game, it's clear that of all the console makers, Nintendo are the company that could make best use of the figurine model that series introduced. After all, Nintendo are considered the Disney of the games industry, and as much as every Nintendo fan would hate to admit it, we would all throw money at a series of collectible figurines. So as if hearing the sound of bank accounts emptying worldwide, Nintendo are introducing amiibos.
A collectible series of figures which promise to tie-in with various releases, amiibos are Nintendo's first foray into the collectible figurine world, and judging by the quality on display already, it will be a hugely successful, and more importantly, profitable one.
Located behind a glass cabinet with the words "NO PICTURES" printed underneath them, it's clear that Nintendo still consider amiibos to be a work in progress. On display during my visit to Nintendo's post-E3 showcase were a handful of Super Smash Bros amiibos, including Mario, Samus, Fox and Link.
Based upon their portraits from Super Smash Bros, the figures look fantastic, and are very well painted and detailed. Set atop a sturdy Super Smash Bros logo base, the figures look superb and are very reminiscent of the opening of Melee on GameCube. It goes without saying that the electronics and NFC chip is stored in the base, and with a sensible size, amiibos should scan comfortably on the Wii U GamePad. Continue reading Hands-Off: amiibos

I'm looking at buying a 2.1 speaker system for our bedroom. I'm using a Panasonic SA-25 receiver and the optical output from our Toshiba 40" TV with a set of Yamaha NS-A329 speakers and a Yamaha SW305 sub. I don't really need a 5.1 setup. I came across these on the H/K website.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

One that comes immediately to mind is the Swan M50W. I have the version just below it in my little kitchen setup and have found it to be a surprisingly detailed system.
If you take yourself too seriously, expect me to do the exact opposite

Thanks but I'm looking for something that isn't powered since it will be hooked up to the Panasonic SA-XR25 receiver.

Good morning everybody,
I've been reading this interesting website since several months, and I decided to register today to share my airline experiences with you. I am a French member who is keen on all what is related to airlines, as numerous people here. So I would like first to apologize if a make some English mistakes.
I do travel quite often, especially on Swiss-Lufthansa (Miles and More Frequent Traveller), and Air France (Flying Blue Platinum), and must admit that I'm in a general way quite disappointed by my own flag carrier; particularly in l'Espace Affaires and l'Espace Première.
Let's go now straight to the point. Here are presented four trip reports, that summarize for me in such a way the AF experience :
1) One medium-haul in C : CMN-CDG => 18/08/07, A320
2) One long-haul in P : CDG-CAI => 18/08/07, B772
3) One long-haul in J : CAI-CDG => 22/08/07, A332
4) One short-haul in C : CDG-ZRH => 22/08/2007, 142
1. CMN-CDG : l'Espace Affaires
LOUNGE : quite small lounge belonging to AT, but very tastily furnished, and providing a refined and delicious catering. A traditional Moroccan breakfast was proposed as well, as you can see hereunder.
Mark : 8/10
SEAT : This is a typical Economy seat, with no extra legroom and recline, and exactly the Y pitch. A daylight robbery. It is true that LH and LX have the same layout 2-2 and the central seat neutralized, but I do not like it either. Let's say that for one hour flight, it is clearly bearable, but for three hours, it doesn't deserve to be called Business Class.
This could be partially forgiven if the catering was better, which was not the case, as you will notice.
Mark : 04/10
CATERING : It is a total shame to provide such a poor catering in Business Class. Whereas most of the companies provide crockery porcelain in C, AF solely gives its passengers these pathetic plastic dishes. The apple crêpe was awful and not cooked enough, and the orange salad with cinnamon sharp and icy. The bread was totally rubber, and the whole breakfast not edible. Very disappointing !
Unfortunately, this kind of experience is recurrent on AF Medium-haul flight in C. Nothing to do with AT or LH which offer on the same route a good and tasty catering.
Mark : 02,5/10
FLIGHT ATTENDANTS SERVICE : This is for me one of the most irregular items on Air France. You can find very friendly and attentive crew on some flights, and arrogant and grumpy ones on other flights. Unluckily, that was the second category which was prevalent in this flight. No smile, a mechanic and non-enthusiastic "bonjour", and all of them gave the impression to be fed up with being here. Furthermore, it is worth highlighting that you never have the feeling to be a Premium Passenger on AF medium-haul flights on C.
Mark : 03/10
2. CDG-CAI : l'Espace Première
LOUNGE : my flight from Casablanca was quite delayed, so I couldn't visit the Air France new l'Espace Première lounge in terminal 2E. I was able, however to visit it later in another P flight.
Mark : none
SEAT : It is for me one of the best First Class seats in the industry. I once experienced the new SQ first Class seat, and several times the QR one, and AF has (when there is no breakdown) an excellent product. The bed is pretty comfy to sleep.
Mark : 8,5/10
CATERING : the food was gustatory speaking quite good, but not at the level of a First Class flight. There is a huge discrepancy between the AF ads which underscore the French "Art de vivre", Guy Martin, le Grand Véfour, etc. And the real product which is very trivial. The lobster and the filet of beef were everyday fare, but the desserts and sherbets were delicious. The wine list was a joke ! SQ and QR offer better wines in Business Class. The Saint-Estèphe Château Phélan Ségur 2004 Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel X. Gardinier was at best a J-Class wine. Not acceptable for a French Airline.
Mark : 06/10
IFE : To be honest, I am quite angry since it must be about the 20th time in four years that the IFE is out of service in Air France flights. I don't understand why AF doesn't sack Rockwell and replaces it by a more serious service provider. No sooner had the plane taken off, than the PTV broke down and I couldn't carry on with my film until the end.
Mark : 1/10
FLIGHT ATTENDANTS SERVICE : the welcome was good, without being exceptional. Just after the take off, the very friendly Chef de Cabine Principal (chief purser) introduced himself to us, and gave us the menus. Not only was the FA in charge on P cabin smiling and obliging, but she was anticipating our requests as well. An appreciable mix between courtesy and discretion. As you can see in pictures, she kindly offered me numerous sweetmeats and desserts.
Mark : 8,5/20
3. CAI-CDG : l'Espace Affaires.
LOUNGE : This is the only AF lounge in the world (except JFK) where I could find a fair catering. Small and tasty sandwiches were proposed, some omelettes and cereals as well. As you can see, the seats are quite nice and have nothing to do with the terminal 2A/2F ones for instance.
Mark : 07/10
SEAT : I know quite well this product, and as it has already been said, the cabin is beautiful and gives you a real feeling of privacy. However, it is the worst J-class seat I've ever experienced. It is impossible to get comfortable, and the incline makes you lie down to the floor all the night. Besides, the pillow seat prevents you from staying in a "normal" sleeping position.
AF has launched a third version of NTC seats, but they were not available on this flight.
Mark : 03,5/10
CATERING : To my view, the service was not efficient since we were first served three small sandwiches accompanied with a selection of beverages. It took one hour. Then, an hour and half before landing, the hot breakfast was proposed. We consequently had only 1 hour and thirty minutes to have a small rest.
I think that it would have been better for everybody to have an express and hot meal just after the take off, ant to keep free the remaining time for the convenience of everyone (working, sleeping, etc.). As far as the meal is concerned, it consisted of a choice of an omelette with sausages (what I chose) / pancakes with banana (what my friend chose). Both the dishes were quite good and tasty; which was not the case last year on the same route. Meanwhile, the croissants were not edible and I didn't like the way they were offered (no plate to put them in).
Mark : 06/10
IFE : Fortunately I was too tired at that time to see a movie, as my PTV was again broke down ! As there were 14 other PTV on that flight. Many resets were made, vainly. I didn't appreciate the way the Chief Purser behaved. Instead of being apologetic, she dryly said that she would make a report, and that the problem was also recurrent on LH and BA flights (they call it "argumentation positive"). What a cheek !
Mark : 00/10
FLIGHT ATTENDANTS SERVICE : As I mentioned, the Chief Purser was rude and unhelpful. Unlike the FA in charge of J-cabin who was more smiling and pleasant. Though the service remained quite standard. To put it in a nutshell, the "Premium culture" as a whole needs absolutely to be improved on Air France flights, since you are almost treated in l'Espace Affaires the same way you are in Tempo.
Mark : 5/10
4.CDG-ZRH : l'Espace Affaires (CityJet)
LOUNGE : 2F lounge, overcrowded in the morning, old seats, very poor catering : solely some croissants. Nothing gives you the impression to be in a Premium lounge. A dramatic improvement is to be noticed in the 2C terminal lounge, which has been totally refurbished. Let's hope that I will be the case for the 2F one, which is one of the most frequented ones.
Mark : 03,5/10
SEAT : typical and very small Economy seat. Central seat is even not neutralized. So what is the difference with Economy Class ?
Mark : 01/10
CATERING : I was delighted to have such a nice meal for this short flight, even if it is not at the level of LH/LX. A tasty foie gras and a chicken/vegetables salad. Let's remember that CityJet flights offer their passengers an "improved" service (exactly the same meal is proposed in C-Class for CDG-TUN/CDG-SOF/CDG-OTP for instance). Whereas C-Class meals on Air France metal are often insipid, CityJet ones are quite satisfactory.
However, this raises the question of services harmonization and brand image on Air France flights. Is it logical to be served in Economy Class for CDG-ZRH / CDG-LCY the same meal offered in Business Class on CDG-GVA / CDG-LHR ?
Regarding the First Class service, is it logical to have the same China in P-Class and J-Class ? AF should seriously better apprehend these questions, which seem secondary, but can really make the difference between an excellent airline, and an average one.
Mark : 06/10
FLIGHT ATTENDANTS SERVICE : Both the Chief purser and the FA were thoughtful and smiling. They were continually eager to do their best to satisfy their passengers.
Mark : 08/10

Short-Term Managerial Contracts Facilitate Cartels

This paper shows how a series of commonly observed short-term CEO employment contracts improves cartel stability compared to a long-term contract. When a manager's short-term appointment is renewed if and only if the firm hits a certain profit target, then (a) defection from collusion results in superior firm performance and thus reduces the chance of being fired immediately, while (b) future punishment results in inferior firm performance, thereby increasing the chance of being fired in the future. The introduction of this reemployment tradeoff intertwines with the usual monetary tradeoff and weakly improves cartel stability. Studying the impact of fixed versus variable salary components, I find that fixed components facilitate collusion with a short-term contract, while not affecting cartel stability with a long-term contract. I extend the model to argue how short-term renewable contracts are a source of cyclical collusive pricing. Finally, interpreting the results in the light of firm financing shows how debt-financed firms can form more stable cartels than equity-financed firms.
