In 1942, Lawrence Pritchard Waterhouse - mathematical genius and young Captain in the U.S. Navy - is assigned to detachment 2702. It is an outfit so secret that only a handful of people know it exists, and some of those people have names like Churchill and Roosevelt. The mission of Watrehouse and Detatchment 2702 - commanded by Marine Raider Bobby Shaftoe - is to keep the Nazis ignorant of the fact that Allied Intelligence has cracked the enemy's fabled Enigma code. It is a game, a cryptographic chess match between Waterhouse and his German counterpart, translated into action by the gung-ho Shaftoe and his forces.
Fast-forward to the present, where Waterhouse's crypto-hacker grandson, Randy, is attempting to create a "data haven" in Southeast Asia - a place where encrypted data can be stored and exchanged free of repression and scrutiny. As governments and multinationals attack the endeavor, Randy joins forces with Shaftoe's tough-as-nails grandaughter, Amy, to secretly salvage a sunken Nazi submarine that holds the key to keeping the dream of a data haven afloat.
But soon their scheme brings to light a massive conspiracy, with its roots in Detachment 2702, linked to an unbreakable Nazi code called Arethusa. And it will represent the path to unimaginable riches and a future of personal and digital liberty...or to universal totalitarianism reborn.
A breathtaking tour de force, and Neal Stephenson's most accomplished and affecting work to date, Cryptonomicon is profound and prophetic, hypnotic and hyper-driven, as it leaps forward and back between World War II and the World Wide Web, hinting all the while at a dark day-after-tomorrow. It is a work of great art, thought, and creative daring.

"Good Book But Missing Something"
This is a great book and the unabridged audio version is a welcome addition to my library. However, having read the book several times, the audio version has at least one technical issue - there is about a chapter and a half of the story missing in part 5 at the beginning of chapter two. In the print version this is all of "Deluge" and part of "Captivity". Maybe it will show up later, that's happened before in other audio books.
"Great book; small error in download file"
Cryptonomicon is a great book - I've listened to it three times, and loved it all three times. It's a long, quirky, fascinating and funny story sprawling over two continents and seventy years. And at almost 43 hours long, it's a heckuva value for your Audible dollar!
BE AWARE, HOWEVER, THAT AUDIO CHAPTERS 2 AND 3 ARE SWAPPED IN THE DOWNLOAD FILE. I alerted Audible a year ago, and it's not fixed yet (as of 2/1/15) so I want to alert people. All the text is there, you just have to manually skip ahead, and then skip back.
William Dufris' wry reading and distinctive voices for the characters really enhances the humor of the book - especially his reading of the character of Bobby Shaftoe.
"Be careful!"
So far in the first 3 chapters this Audio book has skipped 30 pages , continues to another part of the book and at the beginning of another chapter, it reverts back to the previous 30 skipped pages. Fortunately I have the print book version to verify. Probably why so many reviews say that there is a disjointment to the listening. I emailed Audible about this, we'll see if there is a fix. Enjoy the book so far but hard to find where I should be listening. UGGHHH!! I hope I didn't waste 2 credits! Help Audible!!!!!!!!!!!

".....Van Eck phreaking-tastic!!....."
Science Fiction is whatever SF readers read. Using this definition you may classify this as Science Fiction. But it is really a mainstream novel with extensive flashbacks involving related characters. Heavy doses of math and internet technology protocol lingo may make this seem like SF to those not accustomed to such nerdification, but there are no other SF trappings. In the 1960's SF readers began reading THE LORD OF THE RINGS and made it into a Science Fiction classic.
I listened to this book immediately after tackling Stephenson's ANATHEM—a novel that didn't strike my fancy. If you read my review of that novel you will know that I am a big fan of Stephenson's SNOWCRASH, and after being disappointed by his THE DIMOND AGE, decided to give some of his other works a chance in case he had more to offer. ANATHEM almost made me give up on that second chance, but I soldiered on trying to discover the reason so many are so enamored with Neal Stephenson. Listening to CRYPTONOMICON was, for me, a return to the fun and sarcasm that is so evident in SNOWCRASH. The tone of this book is so different than that of ANATHEM that I am left a little baffled as to just what that other book was all about.
This is twice as long as a typical long novel and even some trilogies are shorter. This is because it is really two novels—each novel being told in parallel to the other. One is among the cryptographers in World War II, and the other in the present day of techno-geeks, with some related characters between the two time tracks. As might be expected by such a lengthy book there is a cast of thousands and the plot is complex and multifaceted. There are so many diversions and rabbit trails that as a listener you must be in the frame of mind to go along for the ride, else you will become impatient waiting for the plot to advance. You will hear forays into various methods of code making and breaking, and will gain an smattering of internet technology along the way—and this is completely relevant to understanding the story. Wait until you learn what van Eck phreaking eavesdropping is all about! This novel brought out the nerd in me and if you have any inkling in that direction this book will strike a chord within you as well.
Also of note is the fact that both of these two books are narrated by William Dufris. In ANATHEM Dufris adopts, correctly I believe, a far-away sequestered-monk tone of voice with mystical quasi-philosophical Socratic dogmatic smugness. Here in CRYPTONOMICON Dufris has the freedom to fully explore his full range of voice characterization. He is most excellent when portraying various English dialects, clearly differentiating at least a half dozen different dialects—and his Germans immediately put images of crisp SS uniforms and monocles in your mind. I think that because this novel is full of quirky characters that Dufris was given free reign to portray , being allowed to go completely over-the-top in his voicings. His performance here reminds me of another wonderful Dufris-narrated book: WOKEN FURIES. He has delivered a truly wonderful performance that made this a very entertaining listening adventure.
Eclectic mixer of books of my youth and ones I always meant to read, but didn't.
"A Cracker!"
I recall when I first read this fantastic book how impressed I was with the level of detail, research and sheer discipline that must have underpinned the writing of it. I was no less impressed when I heard this audio performance. Having now also read the Baroque Cycle, I got a double thrill out of the repetition of the characters' histories, their shared ancestory and the scale of Stephenson's imagination. Anyone who enjoys history (but doesn't take themselves too seriously as a history buff) is bound to enjoy this book.
I listened to this performance about a year ago. At the time I had not written any reviews and it never dawned on me to write one for this book. However, I have today finished listening to Richard Dawkins', "The Blind Watchmaker", and I am now writing reviews for most of the audio I listen too. In that review I wrote that fact is so often more interesting than fiction. I believe that, but it is not true in this instance. Maybe it's because the fact and the fiction are so inextricably interwoven. One has to stop to think, "Now, did that happen?" Then one is driven to the Net to check the odd details and, invariably, the facts stack-up.
The plot is great. It too is interwoven between times and personalities, from WWII to the modern internet highways that criss-cross the oceans of the world with their fibre-optic cables. I love Waterhouse (all of them) and who could not like Root and Rudi? My recommendation is to invest the time and effort in this and other Stephenson works. They repay the effort many times over.
As for the characterisations of William Dufris, I have to say they were outstanding. I thought I was going to hate the American twang, but his sense of the character was so good I found myself having to replay passages for my own enjoyment and to the entertainment of my unfortunate friends. One passage in particular, when Waterhouse does the algebra to solve his lack of sex, got a particular hammering (pardon the pun). Finally, can I just mention his range - male, female, American, Japanese, Swiss, backwoodsman, professor and every combination of these. Simply outstanding.
Dept Q, Harry Hole... where are you?
"An Epic Masterpiece of Unforgettable Characters"
The characters are incredibly rich and diverse. The humor is clever and humane.
Clancy's latest, Threat Vector is about cyber-warfare. The author goes into great detail (all way over my head) on the mathematical and technical subject matter. And some of the character backgrounds, particularly of hackers, are right in line with Clancy's.
I loved Stephenson's humor and realism in the war stories he told.
I loved most all of the scenes with Bobby Schafto, particularly with Goto Dengo and General McArthur. And I especially enjoyed the German U Boat Commander.
I laughed throughout the book. The characters are so brilliantly developed I found myself wishing the story would go on just to hear more from them.
It would be wrong not to admit I lost my way in parts that were so technical I had no idea what was happening. This grew tedious at times, nevertheless its still a 5 star book in my opinion.
I am not familiar with the work of the reader, William Dufris, but it is uncanny how much he sounds like the actor Jeff Daniels.
"complex and intelligent"
It took a little while to get into and sort out all of the characters and parallel storylines, however, it was worth it!
"Cryptonomicon" was long but the story was so complex that it seemed right (I even wanted the book to go on.)
Also, do not be intimidated by the math-y content of the book. The author does very well at describing complex number theory and cryptography in a way that is accessible.
I highly recomment this book.
"A very fine read"
This wasn't just a good audio-book, it was a Tour de Force for the narrator, William Dufris. If you ever find a reader's attempts at different voices or accents cause to cringe, don't worry, this guy mostly nails it. As to the book itself, it's nothing short of epic in scope, spanning half a century, a good part of the planet, full of dire struggles, mayhem, heroes and bad guys. My question is, what has this guy (Stephenson) done with his life to be able to render so many different places, scenarios and characters in such vivid detail? On the other hand it is long, very, very long. I'm grateful that I was able to listen to it rather than read it, and I do have to admit that at times, it tired me. This tended to happen in some of the descriptive sections, which were at times perhaps a little too detailed. Plot-wise there were also one or two moments of discomfort for me. Don't let any of that put you off, plunge in, it's worth the effort, the rewards are definitely there, overall a great piece of work.
"Night And Day!"
(compared with the "Unabridged Excerpts"!)
Well worth the hefty price, well read and done. I have no qualms whatsoever spending good money on this version, as it was obviously the product of hard work and professional production.
Brad M.
The story-telling is engrossing, drawing the reader in bit-by-bit as the story unfolds. The combination of witty humor and detailed technical description will cause more than a few moments of inappropriate laughter and plenty of Google searches.
There are quite a few memorable moments, but the one for me is [SPOILER] the scene during the raid on the Ordo offices where Tombstone is held, seeing the combination gun toting anti-Government Intrusion Secret Admirers as well as nerds using an EMP cannon to confuse and screw with the police.[/SPOILER]
William Dufris brings the story to life. Not only pronouncing some of the more difficult completely made up languages, he gives each character life. It's less of a narration and more of a one-man radio play, complete with a great Douglas MacArthur voice.
I wasn't able to completely finish the book until a week long road trip where I could enjoy 8-10 hours of it at a time. It is a long, long book and very technical so it does require attention to be paid.
Read it, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
"The many levels of understanding and deception"
War is not just about bullets but concealment and secrecy, we are living proof of this reality, the the war on terror is fought in the networks and in communications and messages, in lies and half truth. This book works within all this elements but begins at beginnings of the second world war exposing what effect cryptography, Allied Codebreakers and tactical-deception had on the european and pacific fronts, and how those ideas changed our world. We are introduced two to sets of characters one set in WWII and the others in in the late 1990s this group is related through blood to the first ones and share some the interest of their relatives in cryptography and communications. We are exposed to history at its most brutal, and intelligent, some truly funny episodes and dialog mixed with high adventure, mathematics, ideas, philosophy, programing, geeks, super geeks, dentists, soldiers, submarines and lawyers. There are plots, subplots, ramblings and thoughts expounded in all seriousness and some just taking the piss.
This is more than a book it is an experience. A work madness and genius; madness because of its reach genius because of it erudition and entertainment value.
The reader manages to create voices for all the characters and move through the book with amazing ease. .
I loved this book.
Sure, it was massive. And I take what the other reviewers said about there being unneccessary diversions though the book.
But the fact is that, despite its size, I didn't want it to finish. I love Neal Stephenson's style. He can capture a complicated mesh of emotions with a single sentence- sometimes a single word. His writing style is loose and very very funny. The story itself rambles around in a massively entertaining meander through the decades- but it gets you there in its own good time.
I disagree with comments that it's so full of technical jargon that you need to have a degree, an anorac, or a specialist knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons esoterica to get it. All the technical stuff is explained for non-technical folks like me, and it's nearly always very daft, and very funny.
It being funny and daft doesn't mean that it is without a moral compass. There is a strong 'under-story' that will, at times, capture your heart by creeping up while you're not expecting it, and getting in there by stealth. Neal S's writing style makes this happen seamlessly.
A word for the narrator. He pulled the story along with a slick and beatifully timed delivery. Good at accents, so you know who's saying what. It's an understated delivery, but it's exactly how it should be. He presents the words without imposing himself onto them.
However: This is not a life-changing book. It is enlightening, but never profound. It is a book that will entertain you rather than tranform you. You may think that 42hours (or 900+ pages) is too much of an undertaking merely to be entertained. I'd argue that you'll know whether you like it or not within the first hour of reading it- so the commitment is only until then. By the time Bobby Shafto and his team have knocked over the money carriers you should have an idea of whether you want to keep reading.
So- go on. You've nothing to lose!
"A milestone in fiction"
Where to start...who but Neal Stephenson could write a book so epic in scope, seamlessly weaving a tale from the hayday of computing, WW2 wartime espionage and contemporary eCommerce underpinned by the fascinating field of cryptography. To call the book gripping is like describing the South Pole as "a bit nippy" Superlatives are rarely merited. In this case they are.
"Deep and technical, but accessible."
Underneath all the cryptography and tech, Cryptonomicon has a great story with well rounded, modern characters. The original novel features graphs and diagrams to explain pretty technical topics like frequency counting and van eck phreaking, but you don't notice them missing in this audio book, as the narrator carries you along with the in depth descriptions while progressing the narrative.
It's ensemble cast, split across two timeframes, provide plenty of variety, the occasional laugh, and lots of relatable geeks. It's a very long book, but it never drags. Once it's over, you want to find out what the characters are up to.
"wonderful if very long book"
This is a superb book which I enjoyed listening too very much but it is not without flaws and peculiarities.
To start with it is arguable that it is unnecessarily long. One or two reviewers on Amazon have suggested that the author could have done with a good editor, and there is some truth in that; in some places the detail is mind-boggling and quite difficult to follow, particularly in an audiobook. However, I confess that I liked the detail - it must appeal to the inner nerd in me I think - and I do like books that explore the byways of history away from the main road, as it were. And the storyline is satisfyingly complicated and hooks you in gradually; do stick at it as it improves a lot after the first section.
Narration is excellent - indeed it makes the book. I do like William Dufris' style, amused and kinda laid-back, and he brings the book brilliantly to life, and his characterisations are perfect.
Not everyone's cup of tea, I'm sure, but five stars for me.
"Excellent capture of the book"
I first Cryptonomicon around 10 years ago, and find myself rereading it every couple of years. Part WW2 spy thriller, part modern day geek drama, part introduction to basic cryptography, it is all brain candy.
On my last reread, I tried this audiobook version, and was extremely happy with how it captured both the tone and the charcters of the book.
William Dufris tone and consistent delivery manage to capture the underlying humour and bring life to Neal Stephenson's baroque prose. He manages to evoke the different settings and characters through subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) use of accents
I definitely recommend this.
"Just genius"
Like a piece of cryptography, patterns and associations begin to emerge the more you delve into this story. About two thirds of the way in, the disparate strands of the timelines and characters begin to come together in the most riveting way.
Worth 40 hours of your life? - Absolutely.
"There is a good book somewhere"
I really tried hard with this book. I listened to it for about 6 hours before I gave up. There is a good story in here somewhere, but the narrative is plagued with pointless epic similes that add little to the enjoyment and deviations leaving the listener wondering where they are in the tale. I wonder if the author was paid by the word count?
"Great book"
I really enjoyed Cryptonomicon. It's a dense story which requires the reader to involve themselves in a bit of brain work. Suprisingly, for an author who has a reputation as a cyberpunk I found the narrative of this book reminded me of authors such as Ken Kesey and predictably Joseph Heller. For some reason it reminded me alot of Kesey's 1992 book Sailor Song, which is hardly a bad thing.
Only down point; about half way through Neal starts recounting a letter a character is writing for Playboy, which goes on wayyyy too long. Stephenson obviously enjoyed writing that part too much.
Heartily recommended.
"Needlessly long and geeky"
The length was the worst bit. It was gratuitous. I like long books, deliberately seek them out, but this was pointlessly long. There was SO much that was unneeded.
Also the link up between the younger generation retreading the older generations' footsteps wasn't played out in the story. They should've made more of the fact they were hanging around with the same people their grandparents were, in the same countries.
I like the war stuff the most. Rudy, Laurence and Arthur.
The narration was immense. Very good. Only a couple of times did it slip, where I wasn't instantly sure who was talking.
The scene when Randy was doing a memo to his team. I HATED it. It was pure drivel and I had to skip the chapter. By this point I was tearing my hair out with the book, just wanted it to end. I had spent over 30 hrs on it, so wasn't going to give up but I so wanted to. This send was almost the tipping point.
The last few scenes with Laurence were good, the one when last complex code gets programmed was particularly pleasing.
Steer clear of Neal Stephenson.
The complexity of the story was mind blowing. Hats off to the author for putting it together.... BUT there was no need. It could have been half the size (it is LONG) and it would have been twice as enjoyable. There were whole chapters I had to skip as the drivel was mind numbing.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: My favourite race!In full: The Abbey Dash (2003) was my very first race and it is one which is very special for me. It is flat (yay!) and fast. The support on the route wasn't as good as usual, but it was a cold, windy day so not surprising really. I didn't pb today, but most of my clubmates did which is fantastic.One thing that did surprise me was the fact that they were still unloading some of the portaloos 45 mins before the start time! I also had difficulty finding where to deposit my chip.Date of review: November 24, 2009
In short: Hills!In full: Loved this race last year and brought a load of my clubmates to do it this year. Despite the weather, we all thoroughly enjoyed the race. The hills are hell, but you do get the fantastic downhills to sort of compensate. Thank you so much to the marshalls for standing out in the rain to look after us and cheer us on.Fingers crossed for good weather next year as I didn't enjoy standing at the start wringing out the sleeves on my top!Date of review: November 10, 2009
In short: Excellent mostly off road race. Really enjoyed it :DDate of review: September 6, 2009
In short: A lot more undulating than I thought!In full: This is an undulating course. It hasn't got the steepness of the hills in Guy Fawkes 10, but they are constant. Very friendly marshalls and great rucksack at the end. Only thing was that the children's race was held at the same time as the adult one so I oculdn't watch my little one running.Date of review: August 9, 2009
In short: Excellent race for beginnersIn full: This is the third year I have done this and the first was definitely the best. The organisers have listened after last year though - thank you for the slightly less long toilet queues in the green area (more portaloos would be brill) and I felt a bit more part of it this year with some entertainment on the Headrow too. The only distance marker I saw was at 5k though. Getting everyone into the pens at 8:30 means that a warm up is impossible. I am not sure that I will do this race again because it is expensive and really isn't a pb race if you are a quicker runner. However, I think it is a brilliant race for beginners and those who race less regularly.Date of review: June 22, 2009
In short: A good race, but wasn't flat. Well done on the drinks today!In full: Very strange running through a multi-storey carpark! Watch out for the stadium finish. It's not the finish when you see the stadium, you have to run around the top of it then out and back in again before you see the end.Date of review: April 26, 2009
In short: Definitely not flat!In full: A good out and back route. Undulating course, but not too steep and most challenging on the way out. Enjoyed the race and despite the hills I got a pb. Lovely finish in the park. Could have done with more toilets at the start, but that's normal isn't it!Date of review: April 9, 2009
In short: My first Brass Monkey, but hopefully not my last!In full: Excellent organisation. The timing chips were handed out very quickly (I did need help to fasten it on to my laces however as I had never seen one like that before!). The rucksack that was given out as a souvenir of the race was great. Good flat course and friendly marshalls. The only thing I would have changed was to have bottles of water instead of plastic cups as I still haven't got the hang of that and a shower outside in the winter is not the most comfortable thing!Date of review: January 27, 2009
In short: Fantastic race. PBs for most people in my run club.In full: I have done this race a few times now. In fact it was my very first one so is special to me :) It is a busy race, but well organised. Definite PB course - I beat my time last year by 5 mins. If you put your mobile number on the entry form you were texted your time a few minutes after you finished too which was a nice touch. See you next year.Date of review: November 26, 2008
In short: Fantastic race. Friendly marshalls. Birstwith Brute is a killer! In full: My first 10 mile race and what a one to do. Excellent organisation and friendly and supportive marshalls. The Birstwith Brute was very tough (never had to walk in a race before!). Fabulous goody bag and long sleeved technical t-shirt at the end. Definitely back next year. Thank you Nidd Valley Road Runners.Date of review: November 2, 2008

An environmentally friendly method for culling your catch, the ProCull No Float Conservation Clip Culling System eliminates the need for harmful lip puncturing with its 1-piece "cable through" construction. The ProCull No Float Conservation Clip Culling System is designed without floats, so there's more room in your livewell, and it still allows you to attach custom floats if you choose. Made from quality components, the ProCull No Float Conservation Clip Culling System offers anglers a straightforward, color-coded culling system that will reduce stress and damage to fish.
To Use the ProCull No Float Conservation Clip Culling System: Simply insert between the gill plat and the first row of gills. Extend out through the fish's mouth, and clip the loop to the hook. When removing, unhook the loop from hook and gently push the line along the gill plate toward the back of the fishs mouth. Then slowly pull the line from under the fish to remove. The color-coded
For best fish care: It is recommended that you not suspend a fish by the culling line alone. When retrieving a fish from your livewell, simply find the cull line of your cull fish and lift gently. When the fish reaches the surface of the water, grasp the fish by the lower jaw to remove from the livewell.
Customer Reviews
Comments: Best cull tags I have ever used. Fish come to the scales healthy and fresh. Best part is NO HOLE PUNCHING IN FISH and NO CLIPS COMING OFF FISH. I have used these for over 2 years now and just bought a second set for co-anglers to use. I personally use the non-floating system because I run a Bass Cat and the non-floaters allow the fish to stack properly in the wells.

"If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals. "
Booking business jet charter online
Expedia, Orbitz, Priceline, Travelocity and other Web sites have made booking airline flights online incredibly easy. By comparison, just finding legitimatebusiness jet charter Web sites can be tough. A recent Google search for "private jet charter," for example, listed 185,000 Web sites (in all of 0.22 seconds). With so many sites offering online charter, how can you possibly separate the good from the bad and the ugly?
First, understand that charter Web sites fall into three categories: some are directly associated with charter operators (about 2,500 in the U.S.); some represent air charter brokers, who then facilitate the connection between operators and users; and others are independent marketplaces, which may also function as brokers or step aside once a connection between user and operator is made. At least one charter operator's Web site and several marketplaces are now offering airline-style online booking of charter flights, although how popular this approach will become remains an open question.
Operator-owned Web sites allow you to submit flight requests directly to an operator that holds an approved air operating certificate and has authority from the government to manage every aspect of the operation, including flight crew designation and aircraft maintenance. In the U.S., that means an FAA Part 135 charter certificate. Also included in this category are Web sites of aircraft management and service companies, which may or may not hold their own Part 135 certificates.
If an aircraft management company doesn't hold a certificate, it must work directly with a Part 135 operator who does and state this fact prominently on its Web site. Look for wording like this: "Charter flights arranged by XYZ Company are operated by ABC Charters or other air carriers licensed to operate under FAR Part 135 and registered with the U.S. Department of Transportation. XYZ Company acts as an agent for ABC Charters unless ABC cannot provide the flight, in which case, XYZ will act as an agent to obtain the flight from another operator." Acting as an agent is similar to acting as one's broker.
Executive Jet Management is an example of an aircraft management company that has its own Part 135 certificate. Jet Aviation's U.S. arm is an example of one that does not. It arranges its charters through New World Jet Corp.
Air charter brokers work as middlemen, coordinating flight details between a Part 135 operator and the customer. Brokers don't manage the aircraft, and they often work with hundreds of operators. The customer arranges all aspects of the flight through the broker, including departure times, catering and special services, and has little or no contact with the airplane owner/operator. Brokers are not regulated and some are better, even much better, than others. Good brokers can benefit both their charter clients and the operators.
Marketplaces are not charter operators, though some provide limited services of brokers. These Web sites post information about Part 135 operators, including available flights and price estimates, and allow you-the customer-to contact the operators directly to arrange and book flights. Once you make that contact, the marketplace may remove itself completely from the process, or do some of the work of a broker.
Weighing Pros and Cons
Before choosing which type of Web site to use, you should evaluate the benefits and disadvantages of each.
If you want to avoid paying commissions, consider an operator-owned Web site. Because you're not booking the trip or finding an operator through a third party, you'll pay only for the flight itself and the services you request, such as catering. Brokers and marketplaces generally charge an average of 7 percent of the cost of the flight, according to Streamline Jets president and cofounder Peter Faller. (Streamline Jets is a marketplace.) It is up to the broker or marketplace to decide whether to bill the operator, the customer or both for the commission.
Another benefit of operator-owned Web sites is the ability to provide accurate price quotes. There are exceptions, but most brokers and marketplaces provide only price estimates, and you won't know the actual cost of the flight until the details are finalized with the operator. Here's a tip: After getting a quote from an operator, ask for the wholesale price, which is the price a broker would pay and does not include the commission.
Sentient Flight Group's Privatejets.com, an operator-owned site, provides real-time quotes and aircraft availability information. It is also the only operator-owned Web site to offer direct online booking, using a process that mirrors that of commercial airline and travel Web sites. Most operators have Web sites, but customers generally have to submit their contact information and speak with a company representative before booking the flight, according to Jim Betlyon, CEO of both aviation safety auditing firm Wyvern and its sister company CharterX.
Using Sentient's Web site, you can reserve a jet the same way you'd reserve a rental car online, making the process fast and easy. Privatejets.com was also the first charter Web site to introduce the concept of a "hold button." By selecting that option, you can reserve an aircraft for up to three hours. During that time, Sentient removes the jet from its inventory of available aircraft. "Unlike airline seats, each jet is unique," said Matt Sevick, Sentient's vice president of corporate development. "If we sell it to someone else, that jet is no longer available. The hold button allows customers to set a jet aside while they finalize details."
Other examples of operator-owned charter Web sites include Delta Air Elite, TWC Aviation, M&N Aviation and Sawyer Aviation. These companies use an online quoting system designed by CharterX, but like most charter Web sites, they require you to speak with a representative before booking the flight. You can't book it online, as you can with Privatejets.com.
Charter Broker Web Sites
Using a broker also has advantages. Brokers generally have access to a much larger fleet of aircraft, for example. "A small Part 135 operator might have very high quality aircraft and crewmembers and service, but the aircraft might not be available enough or available nationwide," said Jets.com CEO and founder Nate McKelvey. Jordan Brown, COO of Charter Logic, added, "An operator who owns only a couple of aircraft might not have the right aircraft for a specific mission." Brokers, on the other hand, work with hundreds of operators and can arrange a flight at any time in any location.
Brokers might also be able to provide services that operators can't. For example, JetCombo.com uses proprietary software that merges airline computer reservation systems with data from private jet providers to offer a combination of airline and private jet flights, which can save thousands of dollars. A private jet trip from Newark, N.J., to Santa Barbara, Calif., would cost about $64,000, whereas a first-class airline jaunt to Orange County, Calif., followed by a business jet flight to Santa Barbara would run $7,000. "We are the only Web site that can combine airline and charter in a single itinerary," said JetCombo.com president George Khairallah.
A downside to using a charter broker is that you don't always know the quality of the operators it uses. For example, a broker may claim to contract only with "ARG/US-rated" operators," but as McKelvey explained, "ARG/US has so many levels-DNQ, Silver, Gold, Gold Plus, Platinum-it causes a lot of confusion. Just because an operator is using ARG/US doesn't mean that it has a good quality standard."
It's best to choose a broker whose operators are highly rated by ARG/US or Wyvern. Jets.com and A-List Jets work only with ARG/US Gold- and Platinum-rated operators, for example. "I [use] the 80/20 rule," said Air Royale president Wayne Rizzi, "meaning that 80 percent of our business goes to roughly 20 percent of the top audited charter operators. In the 14 years we've been doing business, we've found that these first-rate 20 percent of operators have the newest aircraft, the most experienced crews and adhere to the highest safety standards- way above what the government requires." Air Royale uses only ARG/US Platinum-rated operators and is a Wyvern Authorized Broker.
Online Marketplaces
Virgin Charter was among the first online charter Web sites to heavily promote the term "marketplace." However, it does not have the category to itself; other marketplaces include Streamline Jets, CharterX and CharterMatrix.com. "We don't do the bookings; we just connect the buyer and seller," CharterX's Betlyon explained. Likewise, CharterMatrix president and CEO Terry Cooper said, "We don't broker the flights or get involved in the selling of the flight. We let the charter company and the customers do that."
Using a marketplace is a great way to save money. In addition to letting you request price quotes from numerous operators without having to involve a middleman, make multiple phone calls or do Internet searches, many marketplaces promote online bidding, where operators compete to offer you the best deal. Virgin Charter and Streamline Jets both offer online bidding.
Virgin Charter recently introduced a "hold button" and a real-time quoting system to its Web site, similar to that of Privatejets.com. "This will give customers the ability to purchase the flight immediately or place the aircraft on hold," CEO Scott Duffy said. You can also choose the online auction in order to save money, however. "You'll get the best of both worlds," Duffy added. "You'll have the real-time nature of the service, and you'll have the operators who continue to compete for your business." [BJT interviewed Scott Duffy in its April/May 2008 issue.-Ed.]
CharterX just launched a similar program-RealQuote-that provides direct, electronic quoting and booking ability with launch partners Segrave Aviation and Pegasus Elite. "There have been a variety of roadblocks that have prevented the air charter industry from realizing the time and cost efficiencies that e-commerce has provided commercial travelers for the past decade," CharterX's Betlyon said. "It's been a pleasure working with Segrave to overcome these obstacles and deliver e-commerce capability to our joint customers."
Streamline Jets' Faller said the company will introduce an online booking option at the end of the year, and it recently launched the Ready Five program, a desktop pop-up feature that runs continuously and notifies customers when an operator posts a flight on the Streamline Web site that matches the criteria submitted by the customer. A customer can enter as many as five airport combinations. For example, if you routinely fly from Teterboro, N.J., to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., the pop-up can notify you when an operator posts a flight between those cities or within a certain radius. The program is free for customers, but the company charges a flat $100 to actually book a flight.
CharterMatrix is a little different from other marketplaces because it makes money from advertising on its Web site and by designing online quote systems for other aviation companies. "I think we're one of the only companies that does not charge a commission," Cooper said. CharterX does not charge a commission either, but a user must become an Industry XChange or XChange Premium member to use the Web site.
The Charter Matrix Web site offers several innovative ways to search for and select flights, using a map-search function and request board. The color-coded map-search function allows you to select a region and view all charter flights available in that area, or you can request specific destinations using the request board. Operators also post information, including aircraft availability and flight schedules, and then wait for customers to contact them.
Now that you have an idea of the differences among the Web sites, don't be afraid to ask questions if you find a site that looks promising. Ask what type of company it is-a Part 135 operator, a broker or a marketplace-and how it evaluates the safety of the aircraft. Does it use only highly rated operators, for instance? You can also ask about commissions, since every broker and marketplace is likely to charge something different. And always ask for references and verify the information you receive with either Wyvern or ARG/US.

i think that this is really a difficullt one.
firstly i feel that this is an incredible oppurtunity to do something really amazing - there is space, support and enthusiasm for creative stuff happening, without the shit that other galleries have such as funding/ finacial pressure. it also is in some respects free of having to maintain a reputataion to get people through the doors;people only go to the embassy to see "art", but people come to forest for many reasons; the audience of total kunst is and maybe always will be totally different to that from the gallery of modern art, where people go to safely have a look at some "whacky" "art".
i see this as a oppurtunity to create something different from a standard white box room gallery which plague cities across the uk with strenuously boring and fanatically tedious things.
i don't think that we can ever aim to achieve the smartness and tidyness that other galleries in edinburgh do (fruit market, dean etc). instead of failing to do that we could (do so very cleverly and intelligently) create something else/ a different way of people exhibiting/ of viewing "art"/"life"
this is just the first things which came to mind after the meeting of the 15th.
i also thought of this phrase "we'll totally kunst you in a minute"

Highlights from the Marine Programme at GRID-Arendal for November 2011
UNEP Shelf Programme: Training and Capacity Building for West African Coastal States
A Framework Agreement on Sub-Regional Cooperation and an Agreement on Technical and Financial Cooperation between six West African Coastal States and the Kingdom of Norway was signed in New York on 21 September 2010. The agreements imply that Norway, through GRID-Arendal, will assist the six States; The Republic of Cape Verde, The Republic of the Gambia, The Republic of Guinea-Bissau, The Republic of Guinea, The Islamic Republic of Mauritania, and The Republic of Senegal; with the establishment of the outer limits of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles.
A training programme has been proposed, through which experts from the six States will receive training and capacity building. The programme is aimed at all members of the National Commissions responsible for the preparation and follow up of the technical information contained in the submissions to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf.
The 1st Technical Training Workshop was held in Arendal 14-25 November 2011. Also included were visits to the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate in Stavanger and the Norwegian Mapping Authority in Hønefoss. In the workshop, the participants learned how to use the available data compiled through the West Africa regional desktop study (completed in 2010) to start building the submission project. This project will be further complemented with the additional geoscientific data that will be collected on the West African continental margin and available for analysis in the following two workshops, which are planned for mid- and end 2012.
For more information, please contact Joan Fabres.
New polar basemap in GRID-Arendal's interactive mapping tool
A new Arctic basemap has been developed by GRID-Arendal and incorporated into the interactive mapping tool (GeoIQ), now allowing display of data in a polar projection.
For more information, please contact Jean-Nicolas Poussart.
WWF Arctic Interactive Map
Collaboration between GRID-Arendal and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Global Arctic Programme has led to the development of an interactive map of the Arctic, comprising layers on past, current and projected sea ice extent, shipping routes, industrial activities (oil and gas sector), communities, protected areas, distribution of Indigenous Peoples, and the locations and descriptions of WWF offices in the Arctic and projects coordinated by the WWF Global Arctic Programme.
For more information, and to view/access this interactive map, please contact the WWF Global Arctic Programme.

Did you know that…
…the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) was adopted on 10 December 1982 and entered into force on 16 November 1994? Article 76 of the Convention provides the legal definition of continental shelf and establishes the procedure for the delineation of its limits.
…the continental shelf extends to the outer edge of the continental margin, or to a distance of 200 nautical miles where the outer edge of the continental margin does not extend up to that distance? If a coastal State intends to establish its continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles ("extended continental shelf"), it needs to submit details of the limits to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) along with supporting scientific and technical data.

Skip to comments.Huma Has Lost Her Halo
Posted on 07/26/2013 8:19:19 AM PDT by AtlasStalled
When Michele Bachmann picked on Huma Abedin a year ago claiming she had some convoluted connection to the Muslim Brotherhood there was a rush to defend the longtime Hillary Clinton aide. The Minnesota congresswoman quickly got a scolding from House Speaker John Boehner, Sen. John McCain, House Intelligence Committee chair Mile Rogers. But now that her husband, Anthony Weiner, is running for New York City mayor, the attacks on Abedin aren't so ridiculous, and Abedin herself is not quite so untouchable.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
Yeah, she did, not that she ever had one though.
But to be fair, so has Michelle Bachmann.
Its under the Clinton's sofa.
It won't be long before it'll be said that an "angry old white man is picking on a young muslim woman."
She is a self absorbed douchenozzle.
As I said in another thread: Huma would look good in a Burka.
It would make everything clearer.
That dog won't hunt...
I didn't know they had a child. I hope she keeps it away from the perv
Huma, please tell your husband that what the public wants to see in a politician is his circumspection, NOT his circumcision.
She married a Wiener. What did she expect?
Said the same thing yesterday. Hope she does.
She'll always have her crescent moon.
You can't"LOSE" something you NEVER had!
She lost her halo when she married that lizard. You half expect his tongue to come darting out and catch a fly.
Huma is ILLEGALLY working for OUR Govt. AND a Group that LOBBIES OUR GOVT!!!!! HELLO~ ILLEGAL!!! SHe's NO SAINT!
"claiming she had some convoluted connection to the Muslim Brotherhood "
"Convoluted" as in her mother being the the founder of the women's wing of the Moslem Brotherhood? Convoluted like that?
Imus called her Huma Weiner, I almost wrecked my car.
She never had a halo.
She hopes to ride her dork husband to high office. Just like hillary. And just like with hillary leftist feminists will rush to support her.
I get the impression that Huma's star has faded in the DNC because her husband is a political loser. Maybe she'll divorce him after he loses the mayor's race and marries some other DNC hack.
perhaps she is "into it" in some sort of weird way? (/s)
Huma is a Muslim brotherhood agent. She will endure whatever it takes to maintain her special access to Hillary and the Obama regime.
That Huma was a dedicated Muslim Koran agitator was well known in D.C. political circles. Hitlery was planning to use all the infiltrated Muslims, male and female, to get to POTUSA. However, though she and Obama were in the same stable of the likes of Soros she didn't count on Obama being so devious as to get to the Muslims first.
So whose halo IS still intact?
I only know one think for sure. The author of this article sure has no halo. I've made it a point to always call Elspeth Reeves out for the piece of garbage that she is.
Don't ever forget; this is the same person who conspired, with her boyfriend to slander American Soldiers in Iraq with lies for The New Republic. Yes, they got caught and were proven to have lied!
I was serving in Iraq at the time and swore that I would always remind Americans about her actions.
Now sitting here in Afghanistan, I won't let it slide! This woman is liberal TRASH and used her journalism position to defame the American Military.
We must never let these leftist escape their actions!
So whose halo IS still intact?
Cant argue with that.

Pack has test to prevent pot shots
Street drugs among banned substances in CSU-Pueblo's policy
The legalization of recreational marijuana in Colorado doesn't change the drug policies of Colorado State University-Pueblo or its athletic department.
In other words, just because you can light up, it doesn't mean you should.
"Marijuana remains on the NCAA's list of banned substances, so if you test positive for it, or any illegal substance, you're done for a year," CSU-Pueblo Athletic Director Joe Folda said. "Pot is just like steroids in that regard."
There is one caveat: The NCAA doesn't test for street drugs, including marijuana, at the Division II level unless it is the postseason.
CSU-Pueblo, however, has its own drug-testing policy. And street drugs are part of that screening, Folda said.
"We have a three strikes and you're out policy," Folda said. "And we do that for two reasons. First, we hope to deter kids from using street drugs, or any drugs for that matter. Second, if a kid turns up positive, we want to find out if there's a bigger problem and we can get that kid some help."
The first positive test, or strike one, earns the offender a trip to the counselor's office. Folda said counselors look for underlying causes for a positive test and make the student-athlete and the school aware.
"All of our tests are random, but if you test positive, you're automatically tested the next time around," Folda said.
If the next test is clean, the student-athlete returns to the random pool.
A second positive test earns more counseling and a spot on the bench. Guilty parties must sit out 25 percent of their regular-season games.
A third positive test equals suspension from the program, Folda said.
The current drug-testing policy, modeled after the program at CSU in Fort Collins, has been in effect for two-plus seasons now.
"We've never had a kid get a second positive test," Folda said. "And I hope we never do."

Reed admits to late tax payments
U.S. Rep. Tom Reed is all paid up on his taxes.
The Republican from Corning recently defended himself to media after reports surfaced saying he has been late paying his property taxes 38 times since 2005. Included in the number are at least 18 times since joining Congress in 2010.
According to the Associated Press, tax records from Steuben and Chemung counties, where Reed owns or has owned several properties in addition to his family home, show he has paid $3,486.51 in interest and penalties, because he has repeatedly been late on his property taxes by a month or two.
Additionally, records show taxes were paid late on three other properties owned in partnerships in which Reed is no longer involved.
Reed said in addition to the taxes being paid in full, out of more than 500 payments since 2005, some of the payments were indeed late.
"Since entering Congress in November 2010, I have been prohibited from being involved in the day-to-day operations of businesses," Reed said. "A number of these payments were made by employees or business partners of the business entities rather than directly by me. All payments, whether made directly by me or not, were paid in full. We take full responsibility and we're always working to improve."

If you decide to work on the other formula and have any questions, I'm happy to help.CL
Your results are good. I'm impressed with your coloration. In the past when I tried dough with only natural yeast in a home oven the crust was pretty pale. I'm going to give your protocol and percents a shot tonight for a Friday night bake. Hope you keep posting your progress. I"m enjoying the read.
Barry,It looks like you are making continuing progress. Did your 12-year old critic have a chance to sample the latest pizzas and to render an opinion?Peter
Excellent looking pizza Barry. I think the evoo omission gave your bottom a more uniform professional look. You are making good pizza my friend, congratulations! Glad to hear your dough balls are acting a bit better for you......
12-year-old critic decided to become 12-year-old helper, and we just mixed a batch of dough together for a (just under) 3-day cold ferment. The only change from last batch was to drop the preferment percentage to 14 (from 17 last time) to compensate for the longer cold ferment. Sunday is pizza night!12-year-old helper looked at the preferment calculator, and picked up bakers percentages in a snap (faster than me, I think). He wants to bring it in for his math class. Who knew Barry
This is so awesome Barry....congratulations man!
One question. The finished dough temperature (after its second 30 minute rest) was 68 degrees - the house is cool, so both flour and water are as well. Should I use warmer water to get the temperature higher before cold fermentation? I seem to remember that Tom Lehmann talks about a finished dough temp in the mid to high 70's.

While I don't think the Bears are that good offensively – I must say I am encouraged by the energy with which our defense is playing. Outside that poor LBs blitz a few plays ago, they have looked up to the task tonight. Let's hope that continues.

The offense is clicking, the defense is solid- special teams still sucks though.
This offseason, Mike Stock will retire, and the Packers will hire the suddenly available Teddy Ruxpin- err, Romeo Crennel- as their new defensive coordinator.

Five-Minute Drizzle Sauce

Nothing could be easier or more versatile. All you have to do is boil some pasta or rice or broil a piece of chicken or fish, then get this going while it cooks. I'll start you off with the base recipe—a kind of warm vinaigrette—and a handful of variations, but no doubt you'll soon come up with even more ideas.

Meredith May Get Nod at Left Guard
What was supposed to be one of the team's strengths entering the season has been a roller coaster ride for the Tampa Bay Bucs. For the second-straight year, the offensive line has been in constant flux because of injury. Since Carl Nicks has been out with a foot injury, the Bucs have tried Gabe Carimi, Ted Larsen and Jeremy Zuttah at left guard this season. Now, presenting player No. 5, Jamon Meredith! Maybe.

Redstone College, which has become known for its airframe and powerplant and advanced electronics technology (avionics) programs, is currently working hard to make significant improvements to its course content, instructional tools, equipment and methodologies in order to better prepare students for the complexities of the field in the 21st century. The school is constantly working with the FAA to make sure the education students are receiving in the airframe and powerplant degree program is in compliance with the latest technology and regulations.
One of the major areas in which Redstone has strived for improvement is its class and curriculum organization. One of the problems they have faced is that the teaching of turbine engines and their systems had become fractured, with a basic class on turbine engine theory followed by multiple classes on a variety of systems. Redstone asked the FAA to approve a reorganization of the material so the theory class was more comprehensive and cohesive, while the study of various systems was combined and taught as a single follow-up class. The FAA approved the change, which ensured a firm foundation in theory and made the connection between various turbine systems clearer. The result has been that students have shown a dramatic increase in their understanding of the complexity of turbine systems.

Southern Oregon employment picture steady
Southern Oregon's economy is somewhat "stabilized" with a seasonally adjusted rate of 11.4% for July in Jackson County. That's the same as for June. Josephine County's rate was higher at 12.6%. For Josephine County that's an improvement from the July 2011 rate of 14%.
There is some specific progress to report in Southern Oregon. Some government job losses were offset by gains in areas like hospitality, manufacturing and construction.
Over the past year the picture is even brighter with total payroll jobs increasing by 2.8%

Some people are re-creating prairie where it never was before — on land that was originally forest or wetlands.including now-tattered bison populations. Farming and development have reduced much of this iconic American landscape, particularly in the wetter eastern areas. There, tall-grass prairie, a habitat dominated by grasses that can grow eight feet high, now occupies less than 1 percent of its former range, putting it among the world's most endangered ecosystems, according to the U.S. National Park Service. In the central prairie zone, so called "mixed-grass" ecosystems have suffered similar losses, while in the drier, less populous West, short-grass prairies have fared better.
The payoff is the reappearance of native wildlife in places that for decades could not support it.the tidal roar of traffic from nearby I-94. Read says coyotes, foxes, deer, raccoons, skunks, possums, rabbits, owls, hawks, and numerous other birds are regular visitors, as are decidedly nonnative feral cats. A couple summers ago they had an explosion of enormous dragonflies that would cruise just above the grasses. "You could tell when they got outside the prairie," he says, "they'd turn around and come back again."
In ecologically-minded places like Ann Arbor, prairies have gained a measure of acceptance.always require some maintenance to keep out trees, brush, and invasive species, which subsequent owners may or may not keep up, experts say.
