DRiver was helpful and kind
November 2016
Driver whisked us from the airport to our downtown Taipei Hotel in the middle of a Typhoon. It was a white knuckle ride during some parts but we got there in 1 piece. Made me realize how far away the airport was from the City.
Glad we booked this, public transport would have been a drag late at night carrying luggage in the rain!
August 2016
I had to wait a little for my driver to arrive, but it allowed me a few minutes to figure out the portable wifi box at the airport. Definitely worth it to have transportation to the hostel.
August 2016
Absolutely perfect! So nice to have no stress.
July 2016
This tour is a must. My driver was there waiting for me after I went through customs and got my luggage. He took my luggage for me right away. He drove me safely to my hotel.

This service is a MUST! We are so grateful that the pick-up accommodated our landing in a different airport. We called the number on our confirmation to share the change in pick-up location. This private transfer service did not hesitate and was there on-time by the time we picked up our baggage. Great Service!!!
May 2016
Our driver was on time and had a large van with lots of room for our luggage. He didn't speak English but knew exactly where our hotel was located. His company called while we were in the van to.make sure everything was alright which was a very nice gesture. Very pleased with service

Phoenix Suns were founded in 1968 and they began playing as an expansion team. Name Suns was selected through a naming contest and it was finalized from a long list of suggested names, the winner was awarded $1000 and season tickets. Since 1992 the Suns home arena is the US Airways Center located 201 East Jefferson in Phoenix, the center has purple seats and is also famously know as the Purple Palace.
The Suns have one of the best winning percentages i.e. 50%, they have advanced to the NBA finals twice in 1976 and 1993 but despite showing good performance for the past 40 years they have yet to win the NBA Championship. The Suns 1st season was not very good and they failed to make to the playoffs but in 1969-70 they raced to the Divisional semi-finals but lost to Los Angeles Lakers 4-3. After 1970 the Suns were unable to give any impactful performance for a few years.
John Macleod was hired as head coach in 1973 and few good players were also signed.1975-76 Suns game improved, they beat the Seattle SuperSonics in Conference semi-finals and Golden State Warriors in finals, they made a mark in history by storming to NBA finals for the 1st time but lost to Boston Celtics 4-2. From late 70's to late 80's the Suns faced ups and downs but their playing style established them as a fearsome team. In 1978-79 they lost the Conference finals to the Seattle SuperSonics and then for the next 2 years went on to play the semi-finals but lost in 1980 to the Lakers and Sacramento Kings in 1981.
Phoenix Suns got attention again in 1984 when they surpass all other teams to reach the Conference finals for the 3rd time but this time lost again to their old rivals the Lakers 4-2. Afterwards the Suns game was affected by some players suffering injuries and also a player's drug scandal, Macleod left and Cotton Fitzsimmons joined and from 1988-91 Phoenix Suns lost 1 Conference semi-final and 2 finals.
1992 was a start of a successful era for the Phoenix Suns as they drafted star forward Charles Barkley and some other fine players like Danny Manning, Wayman Tisdale and Elliot Perry. The Suns proved true stunners in 1992-93 season, they finished 1st with career best score of 60 wins and just 20 losses, won the Conference finals and played for the 2nd time in NBA finals but lost to Chicago Bulls 4-2. In 1993-94 season they finished 2nd scoring 56 wins against 26 losses but lost in semi-finals to Houston Rockets, in 1994-95 Suns stood 1st in the Conference, scored 59 wins and lost 23 but lost again to last year rivals the Rockets 4-3 in semi-finals.
From 1999-2003 the Suns couldn't display their true flair but after addition of Kurt Thomas, Raja Bell and all point guard Steve Nash they were a formidable team again. In 2004 they stood 1st in Conference and equalized their career best wins 62 against 20 and lost Conference finals to the Spurs 4-1. In 2005 they repeated last year performance with 54 wins and 28 losses and lost finals this time to Dallas Mavericks 4-2. 2006, 3rd year consecutively the Suns stood 1st in Conference scored a record best 61 wins with 21 losses, this time lost to Spurs 4-2 in semi-finals. In 2009-2010 season they stood 2nd in Conference and raced to the finals but this time lost to one of their oldest rivals the Lakers 4-2.

More American wrath: Al Gore sues Al-Jazeera for fraud
Gore, 66, and Joel Hyatt, another former Current TV owner, accused Al Jazeera American Holdings I Inc. of fraud and breach of contract.
Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore sued Al Jazeera, claiming the satellite news provider owned by the Qatari royal family owes him and a partner $65 million from a deal to buy his network, Current TV, for $500m.
Gore, 66, and Joel Hyatt, another former Current TV owner, accused Al Jazeera American Holdings I Inc. of fraud and breach of contract. They are seeking undisclosed damages in a mostly sealed complaint filed today in Chancery Court in Wilmington, Delaware. The men alleged that Al Jazeera illegally tried to seize $65m in escrow funds.
"Al Jazeera America wants to give itself a discount on the purchase price that was agreed to nearly two years ago," David Boies, a lawyer for Gore, said in a statement. "We are asking the court to order Al Jazeera America to stop wrongfully withholding the escrow funds that belong to Current's former shareholders."
Buying Gore's channel and rebranding it gave Al Jazeera America access to about 43m U.S. homes. Gore was to make an estimated $100m on the sale of the network, which he helped to start in 2004. After debt, he was to gross an estimated $70m for his 20 per cent stake, people familiar with the transaction said. Dawn Bridges, a spokeswoman for Al Jazeera, said that the network's lawyers are reviewing the lawsuit.

We recently went through a rigorous application process to become a field partner for a start-up. This provided us with a good opportunity to crystallize what BeeHive School provides for their students and the larger community. I hope you enjoy this thoughful discussion.
Mission: Through education, BeeHive School is nurturing future Malawian leaders and innovators who will one day tackle the most severe problems faced in Malawi. Through a holistic model towards education BeeHive has been able to deliver top-quality education at a nominal cost.
Key Features of BeeHive School:
- Continual Teacher Training and Mentorship Program: The cornerstone to Niall Dorey's success has been his teacher training program. Niall hand-picks individuals with a high potential for growth and learning to become teachers at BeeHive School. Through the program, teachers learn to implement a more holistic approach to education whereby the students are viewed as human beings and encouraged to participate actively in class through discussions, asking lots of questions, and fearlessly attacking new material. This is counter-cultural in Malawi where corporal punishment is still the norm and students in most traditional classroom settings are expected to be quiet and "seen, but not heard." Niall trains teachers in advanced conflict resolution and non-violent discipline striving to make student's infractions a learning opportunity. Niall meets regularly with teachers individually and as a group to discuss challenges as they arise and provide a forum through which teachers can continually reflect, learn, and grow. BeeHive's teachers are known to be the best in the area and are often approached by expensive private schools that are able to offer substantial salary increases. Niall takes this in stride, hoping that even though BeeHive is continually faced with the challenge of training new teachers, that in the end at least the entire region benefits from BeeHive's novel teacher training program.
- Holistic Education: Niall strives to help students grow and mature in areas beyond academics. Unlike most schools in the area, BeeHive provides sports, music, drama, field-trips, art classes, computer training, projects in entrepreneurship, and attracts volunteer teachers from around the world to share their skills with the students.
- Educating Girls: Unlike many private schools in the region, BeeHive strives to be gender-balanced and attract and educate girls. Expectations and aspirations for their female students are set equally high to those of boys. Female students at BeeHive school continue onto secondary school just like the boys - this is not the case at most other schools.
- Malawian Teachers for Malawian Students: - Niall strives to select and train teachers of local ethnicity, so that BeeHive students can fully identify with their teachers. Many other private schools import teachers from Europe and wealthier African countries making it difficult for students to fully connect and identify with their teachers. Teachers are highly respected in Malawi and are seen as being at the top of the social hierarchy, so having teachers of local ethnicity helps students develop a sense of pride and set high expectations for themselves because they see that their teachers are able to accomplish so much.
- Diversity: BeeHive School is ethnically, culturally, and religiously diverse - tolerance for all people and ways of thinking is integral to the philosophy at BeeHive. BeeHive School attracts many children from visiting professionals in the area including professionals working with NGOs, emerging businesses, manufacturing, health aid workers, and missions. This provides all the students with the opportunity to interact with other students and families with different beliefs and world views, this teaches the students about having understanding, respect, and curiosity for other opinions and cultures.
- International Volunteers: BeeHive encourages volunteers from all over the world to visit the school. This is not only a unique opportunity for the volunteer, but also for the student. Meeting high-achieving volunteers from American and European Universities inspires the children to dream big and opens their eyes to the world of opportunities available to them if they commit to their studies. It also opens them up to other world views and helps them feel comfortable interacting with people from different cultures.
- Affordability: BeeHive School's legal status in Malawi is that of a not-for-profit. BeeHive School strives to keep costs low in order to make the school accessible to as many students as possible. BeeHive charges $200 per term whereas other private schools charge $1000 per term on the high end and $500 per term on average. Most lower-cost private schools are in the $3-400 range and BeeHive is well below that. BeeHive used to be at $70 USD per term, but due to the need to build new classrooms, BeeHive had to raise costs to $200 per term. BeeHive hopes to lower the cost once the classrooms are complete. Currently about 50% of the school fees go towards operating expenses and the other 50% towards completing construction of the new school buildings.
- Computer Education: BeeHive is one of the few schools in Malawi that has a computer lab and computer training for their students thanks to the efforts of Justin Cannon - an MIT student that visited BeeHive School in 2008 and installed a computer lab. Students are taught basic computer skills like using a mouse, typing, basic programming, the concept behind searching for information, etc. This early interaction with computers will be invaluable in bridging the digital divide as the internet and effectively using technology becomes pervasive and instrumental in every workplace.
- Other: Teaching language in the national language - English. Children can speak their local dialects at recess, but they must speak English in the classroom. Since English is quickly becoming the standard for international business and scientific communication, this is very valuable for the students.
Secondary Affects:
- Strengthens the middle class of Mzuzu because it provides a top-quality school where the middle class can send their children. A common problem in Malawi is small business owners and entrepreneurs exit the country in search of quality education for their children. This has a ripple affect by which the economy fails to grow and jobs are lost. BeeHive is providing a strong motivator for small business owners to stay in Malawi.
- By strengthening the middle class, BeeHive is also contributing to fostering civil society and strengthening democracy. It is also helping to build the local economy both directly by employing teachers and staff and indirectly by helping attract and keep high-value community and economic leaders.
- BeeHive School is becoming a feeder school for emerging secondary schools and Mzuzu University.
- Combating "brain drain" on Africa - a trend by which the most educated people, including teachers, business leaders, etc. leave the country in search for superior personal opportunities for themselves and their families.

Career and Education Opportunities for Engravers in Glendale, Arizona
Engraver career and educational opportunities abound in Glendale, Arizona. The national trend for engravers sees this job pool growing by about 0.0% over the next eight years. Engravers generally engrave or etch metal, wood, or other materials for identification or decorative purposes.
Income for engravers is about $11 per hour or $24,870 annually on average in Arizona. Nationally, their income is about $13 per hour or $27,500 yearly. Engravers earn less than people working in the category of Book Binding and Printing generally in Arizona and less than people in the Book Binding and Printing category nationally.
The Glendale area is home to seventy-four schools of higher education, including one within twenty-five miles of Glendale where you can get a degree as an engraver. Given that the most common education level for engravers is a high school diploma or GED, you can expect to spend only a short time training to become an engraver if you already have a high school diploma.
CAREER DESCRIPTION: Engraver
In general, engravers engrave or etch metal, wood, or other materials for identification or decorative purposes. They also includes such workers as etcher-circuit processors, pantograph engravers, and silk screen etchers.
Every day, engravers are expected to be able to see details at a very fine level of focus. They need to control objects and devices with precise control.
It is important for engravers to engrave and print patterns, designs or lettering onto flat or curved surfaces of a wide variety of metal or paper items, using hand tools or hand-held power tools. They are often called upon to adjust depths and sizes of cuts by adjusting heights of worktables, or by adjusting machine-arm gauges. They also examine sketches or photographs to decide how designs are to be etched or engraved onto workpieces. They are sometimes expected to measure and compute dimensions of lettering or patterns to be engraved. Somewhat less frequently, engravers are also expected to remove completed workpieces and place them in trays.
They also have to be able to guide stylus over template, causing cutting tool to duplicate layout or letters on workpiece and expose workpieces to acid to evolve etch patterns such as designs or figures. And finally, they sometimes have to decide on and mount wheels and miters on lathes, and equip lathes with water to cool wheels and avoid dust when grinding glass.
Like many other jobs, engravers must be thorough and dependable and be reliable.
Similar jobs with educational opportunities in Glendale include:
- Bindery Worker. Set up or operate binding machines that produce books and other printed materials.
- Garment Patternmaker. Draw and construct sets of precision master fabric patterns or layouts. May also mark and cut fabrics and apparel.
- Prepress Technician. Set up and prepare material for printing presses.
- Printing Press Machine Operator. Set up or operate various types of printing machines, such as offset, letterset, or gravure presses or screen printers to produce print on paper or other materials.

Next up is �Fact Track� which when selected, runs in tandem with the movie and uses subtitles to present cool tidbits of information about the movie and everything else you could think of. It�s quickly becoming one of my favorite types of extras, simply because of all the quirky things you learn by watching them. 6 deleted scenes also find their way onto the DVD and can be viewed with an optional commentary from director Herzfeld. �Oleg�s Videos� which runs about 11 minutes and covers two key murders in the movie, provides raw footage shot from a handicam by the actor in the movie as the scenes were being shot. It�s extremely unsettling stuff which should not be viewed by the squeamish. Cast and crew biographies as well as the original theatrical trailer also find their way onto the disc. Lastly, the music video for God Lives Underwater�s cover of Fame (originally by David Bowie) finished up the added extras of the DVD. The menus on the disc are really cool, with pseudo late night news introductions and full animation and sound. Keep in mind that the infinifilm option lets you watch the movie and select all the aforementioned extras while viewing the flick.

This review is from: Antec ISK 300-65 Black Steel Mini-ITX Desktop Computer Case 65W Power Supply
Pros: good layout, can support 2 2.5" hard drives, supports up to 2 fans.
Cons: this thing have a few major flaws:
1. the power plug where the eternal power plugs in is extremely fragile. it is hold onto it place with two small solder on a small cube. the solder broke off the first time i plug the power in. no i was not rough with it. it is very easily broken off..
2. there is no status light on the front. you need to buy a fan with led so you will know if the power is on or not.
3. the stock fan is way too loud. get a variable speed fan that is alot more quieter.
This review is from: ASUS P7F-X ATX Server Motherboard LGA 1156 Intel 3420
Pros: the previous review is wrong, this thing works fine with a xeon 3450 which i also purchased from newegg.
Cons: the board have sata ports that is L and that is a design flaw in my view.
Other Thoughts: not a bad board. so far 4 servers based on this board, no significant issues yet.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: iStarUSA D-407PL Black Steel 4U Rackmount Compact Stylish Server Case 7 External 5.25" Drive Bays
Pros: 1. very well built
2. have 2 doors instead of 1, easier to find the dust filter size
3. precision, all the screw holes are in right place, the lid is slide on easily.
4. istartusa support is actually reachable if you have questions.
5. no sharp edges
6. this will fit a normal size power supply. i used the eneermax 600w plus 80 gold. which barely fitted in.
Cons: 1. this thing as listed have 7 5.25" bays and only 1 3.5" bay intended for floppy. thw 7 5.25" bay is meant for you to have hotswap bays to contain the hard drive. if you just want the harddrive to be in there then you will need to have adapters or one of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856999209
Other Thoughts: compare this to the most popular ark cases that newegg sells, i think this one have a little more quality into it, but the down side is that anywhere within the chasis there is no silicon bushing or antivibration washers that ark cases have. it also felt smaller as the atx mobo is as big as it will fix in this case.READ FULL REVIEW

First it was a childrens book written by Dr. Seuss in 1957, then it became an animated Christmas Special, directed by Chuck Jones in 1966. In 1998 it became a stage musical that played Broadway in holiday engagements over 2006-07. In 2000, they made The Movie with Jim Carrey as a Large Ham version of the title character.
Each version tells the story of a mean-spirited, cave-dwelling creature called the Grinch who hates Christmas. He proceeds to pilfer all the Christmas paraphernalia from the perky folks living in Who-ville in an effort to well steal Christmas. In the end, the Grinch learns that Christmas in Who-ville is about family and friends, not the material objects that the Grinch thought made Christmas special to the Whos. The Grinchs small heart grew three sizes that day!

Way back in the olden times, when folks couldn't go from A to B without some bloody great dragon or other blowing fire up their holes, and men were knights and women were wenches, Darren Aronofsky released his third filmic excursion, the highly-regarded fountain of nonsense that is Pi.
The Duke was alerted to the flick via gushing, orgasmic reviews in any number of glossy magazines, and set out to view this slab of mathematical mayhem. It has, however, taken until tonight, for that plan to bear fruit of any substantial nature.
Some time ago I saw Aronofsky's follow-up film, the laughably pretentious Requiem For A Dream, released in some territories as The Mum From The Exorcist Pukes Herself Thin, and to be honest, it dampened my enthusiasm for seeking out the earlier work. I'll get it out next time, I would say. Oh, look, Porkys 1 & 2 on the same disc! I'll get Pi next time. What's that? The Beyond digitally remastered, you say? Well, get it over here my good man. And I'll be certain to pick up Pi next time.
Anyway, I finally bought it a fortnight ago, and tonight I flung it into the old DVD player and sat back to bask in its conundrums.
You may remember, back when you were at school, that teachers often yacked on about this thing by the name of "maths". Don't strain too hard, it's perfectly sufficient to know that it was the one with numbers, not the one with letters. The Duke was painfully inept at this number malarkey, with its 4r X 6h carrying on. Nonsensical gibberish, The Duke hissed, and The Duke was right. It was indeed nonsensical gibberish.
And then a film came out, one made by the red-haired one from Happy Days, and it had Gladiator doing lots and lots of maths. True to form, it was utter pish. But anyone expecting similarly high quantities of urine in Aronofsky's numbers movie would be all the wrong in the world.
This is some good shit, right here.
The plot concerns one Maximillian Cohen, as he tries to uncover the hidden pattern that lies somewhere at the heart of the stock-market. This has something to do with God, also, and is causing Max no end of anxiety. He meets up now and again with an old fella and they play board games and talk about the mathematics and such, and then he has panic attacks and injects stuff into his skull. It's all very intriguing.
Pi is the closest film has yet come to replicating hip-hop. That's not to say that the script is all "motherfucker" and "ho", in fact the swearing is kept to a minimum throughout. And I don't mean the soundtrack is all Snoopy-G or Icey Dre either, even though it does go for a rather ambient techno type affair that will probably be horribly dated in five years time. No, what I mean is that this film has a rhythm one could feasibly dance to. The editing gives the impression of a record being scratched back and forth, back and forth, to give those delightful "wikka wikka" noises, except instead of aural it's visual. "Wikka wikka" editing, if you will. There's a pulse here, a beat so sharp one could lose a damn finger. Shots are repeated over and over, footage speeds up, bizarre angles abound. Wikka Wikka.
On this evidence, you would assume Aronofsky to be some kind of demented genius. You might even be right. And indeed, The Duke may have to swallow the old humble pi, regurgitate it, and sit down to watch that Puke Yourself Thin flick again. The old Wikka Wikka cuts are very persuasive.
Pi brings to mind Eraserhead, whilst simultaneously hinting at Tetsuo – Iron Man, and also throws in a fair old measure of Barton Fink. But the whole is pure original genius. The high-contrast black and white photography will knock the eyes out of you for a while, and the numbers and sums and adding up and taking away will give you a pounding headache if you're not careful, but it's all a whole heap of worth-it.
If only Aronofsky could turn his attentions to French or Biology, perhaps the entire education system would appear as vibrant, tantalising and intriguing as the old maths now seems. I'm off to buy me a calculator and a drill.
Come visit The Duke, won't you, at Mondo Irlando.Powered by Sidelines

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
im coming back from maternity leave and my boss said that my pay will be reduced when i come back to work.
Yes, generally speaking, an employer in California can prospectively reduce your rate of pay. There are some exceptions if the motivation is premised upon unlawful discrimination. But so long as unlawful factors were not considered (i.e, race, gender, age, handicap), employers can consider any number of factors in deciding whose pay to reduce and by how much.
In California, if you are "at will," your employer can fire you, demote you, reduce your hours or pay rate, without notice and for any reason. Likewise, you are free to quit without notice for any reason.
The information presented here is general in nature and is not intended, nor should be construed, as legal advice. This posting does not create any attorney-client relationship with the author (who is only admitted to practice law in the State of California). For specific advice about your particular situation, consult your own attorney.
To expand on Mr. Chen's response: Please look at my Avvo guide on California's at-will employment law, which should help you understand your rights in this situation, as well as in the future. http://www.avvo.com/legal-guides/ugc/a-short-summary-of-california-at-will-employment.
Also, pregnancy discrimination is unlawful under California and federal law.
FEDERAL RIGHTS: In 1978, Congress amended the Civil Right Act of 1964, Title VII 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e—17, by passing the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. Under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, "discrimination" means to treat a pregnant employee differently from non-pregnant employees, and adversely. The employee must be able to make a connection between the discriminatory treatment and the protected status (being pregnant). In other words, the employee will have to show that her pregnancy is reason the employer is treating her adversely. There are various ways to do this. Negative comments from supervisors or management; a sudden change in treatment (for the worse) as soon as or shortly after the employer learns about the pregnancy or the effects of pregnancy; or other incriminating conduct. This law is enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). www.EEOC.gov
For information on pregnancy discrimination, see:
For information on the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, see:
Under federal law, leave taken for an employee's incapacity due to pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions is governed by the Family and Medical Leave Act, 29 U.S.C. section 2101 et seq. (FMLA), just like leave for any other "serious health condition" of an employee. See my Avvo guide to the FMLA for more information: http://www.avvo.com/pages/show?category_id=6&permalink=family-and-medical-leave-fmla-summary-of-key-provisions.
CALIFORNIA RIGHTS: California employers must comply with federal law, as above, and also must comply with state law. The California pregnancy disability leave law, Government Code section 12945(a) (PDLL), is part of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California Government Code sections 12900, et seq. (FEHA). The PDLL requires employers to provide employees up to four months of unpaid leave for disability caused by pregnancy, childbirth or a related medical conditions.
Under some circumstances, an employer may be required to transfer an employee affected by pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions to a different job.
California has its own family and medical leave law, the California Family Rights Act, Government Code section 12945.2 (CFRA). It is substantially similar to the FMLA, but an employee's incapacity due to pregnancy, childbirth or related medical condition is not included in the definition of "serious health condition." This is usually beneficial to the employee because CFRA leave and pregnancy disability leave are two separate and distinct rights under California law. They do NOT run concurrently, as they do under the FMLA. Instead, an employee in California may take four months of PDLL plus 12 weeks of family leave, provided of course that the employee meets the other conditions of these laws.
So, as Mr. Chen said, if your employer reduces your pay because of your pregnancy, that would be unlawful. If the reduction is because it isn't doing well financially, that would be lawful (probably). Did others have their pay reduced, or just you?
Employment law is complicated and fact specific. You may wish to speak with an experienced plaintiffs employment attorney. To find a plaintiffs employment attorney in California, please go to the web site of the California Employment Lawyers Association (CELA). CELA is the largest and most influential bar association in the state for attorneys who represent working people. The web site is www.cela.org, and you can search for attorneys by location and practice area.

Mayhem # 1403189
About MeI absolutely LOVE photography and art. It is how I understand "my time". My father was a photographer so I am used to be photographed from the day I was born:).
I do not have much experience in professional modeling but I have years of experience acting in the theatre.
I consider myself people person and easy to work with. I am not looking to make a career as a model so I am not very demanding on compensation as long as I get to keep some of the pictures for my own personal collection.
I always admire people who can capture the moment forever. It is not just hard work but a talent! To me pictures are perfect expression of art.
No nudity or lingerie shoots! Prefer portrait or fashion style. I love outdoor shoots best but indoor shoots when it is so cold are a life saver! I am looking forward to hear your ideas.

Shakespeare famously asked, "What's in a name?" In the automotive world, frankly, a hell of a lot. It's difficult to imagine a Corvette called anything else. Yet, it's not on our list of cool names because prior to its application to America's sports car, a corvette was a not-quite-a-destroyer type of small anti-submarine boat. The name only became cool after the Corvette became a success (which didn't exactly happen overnight). Our favorite cool car names are the ones that are inherently cool. Like these six:

BigFoot dataEntry ID: big_foot
Abstract: BigFoot is designed to provide the spatial context of flux towers
using a combination of in situ ecological data, Landsat ETM+ data, and
ecosystem models. Moreover, BigFoot maps land cover, LAI, fraction
absorbed photosynthetic active radiation, and NPP over a 5 x 5 km area
around an eddy flux tower at ETM+ resolution. They fully characterize
25 MODIS cells around a ... given tower site, and are able to test a
number of scaling factors that should reveal possible causes of MODIS
mapping errors (thereby providing feedback to algorithm
developers). Finally, BigFoot takes important steps to enhance the
goals of GTOS.
There are nine BigFoot study sites that span eight major biomes, from
desert to tundra, to tropical forest. The BigFoot project collects
data and generates products at several scales of measurement. Selected
results are presented visually in map and graphic galleries organized
by study site.

Revlon (NYSE:REV) is expected to release Q1 2011 earnings on April 28. We value Revlon stock with a $14.88 price estimate, roughly 5% below market price. Revlon competes with other consumer goods and beauty product companies like Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG), Unilever (NYSE:UL), Colgate-Palmolive (NYSE:CL), L'Oreal (PINK:LRLCY.PK), and Estee Lauder (NYSE:EL).
We were pleasantly surprised with Revlon's 2010 performance, with sales rising 2%, a moderate turnaround from the 4% year-on-year drop in sales over 2007-09. The company also sustained margins despite tough market conditions. [1] Given Revlon's heavy indebtedness, we're still very cautious with regards to its course of action – we're paying particular attention to its EBIDTA margins, overhead corporate expenses and operating working capital. Here we highlight why these are crucial for Revlon.
What About Revlon's Heavy Debt Burden?
Revlon's balance sheet carries net debt of $1.14 billion. Compare this to Revlon's total sales of $1.32 billion in 2010 and the magnitude of its indebtedness is evident. We've previously discussed our concern regarding Revlon's gradual reduction in leverage that has restricted funds allocated to R&D and advertising in our note titled "Despite Debt, Revlon Should Spend On Branding Color Cosmetics."
(Click charts to enlarge)
While we do expect Revlon to reduce leverage in the future, doing so at the expense of its advertising budget could have an adverse impact on market share.
What About Revlon's EBITDA Margins and Overhead Corporate Expenses?
Revlon increased its advertising expense by $34 million in 2010. The added expense was partly offset by roughly $19 billion worth of savings in cost of goods sold, leading to improvements in gross margins. As a result, Revlon's EBITDA margin remained relatively flat at around 19.7% over 2009-10.
But here's our biggest concern. With rising commodity prices in the current inflationary environment, we expect gross margins to be strained further. Hence, Revlon must realize savings in operating expenses to maintain EBITDA margins going forward.
Revlon's corporate expenses primarily include restructuring costs and amortization of debt issuance costs (the expense incurred while raising its mammoth debt load). While these can't be entirely kicked aside, we would certainly expect Revlon to tighten its purse strings a little – particularly when it comes to restructuring costs.

Customer Reviews
Comments: This thing is awesome. I run a SI transducer on my Minn Kota and this has saved it multiple times in shallow water rocks over the past 2 years. Is the perfect size to fully protect it. Haven't noticed any power loss on the trolling motor but I'm sure there has to be a little bit. Would recommend it to everyone.

Comments: Awesome! I will always have one of these on my trolling motor.
From: John: Waxhaw, NC 12/19/15

Pair arrested in laptop theft from Craigslist seller
IRVINE – Two men suspected of robbing another man after agreeing to purchase his laptop were arrested early Wednesday when they were seen driving in South County, police said.
Investigators believe that the robbery occurred after Xavier Austin Parnell, 24, and Matthew Erick Davis, 22, set up a meeting with a Huntington Beach man trying to sell a laptop computer on the web site Craigslist.
As he met the seller at a park in Irvine Jan. 22, Parnell reached into his coat as if to retrieve his wallet, but instead displayed what appeared to be a handgun, Irvine police Lt. Julia Engen said.
Police allege Parnell demanded that the seller hand him the laptop. They say he then ran to a car driven by Davis, at which point the two drove off.
Engen said Irvine detectives Tuesday night tracked Parnell and Davis to Dana Point, where they saw the pair driving in a vehicle. They allege Davis saw the detectives and began driving erratically before briefly stopping to let Parnell out of the car.
The detectives pulled Davis' vehicle over and arrested him without incident, Engen said.
The Orange County Sheriff's Department and California Highway Patrol units helped search for Parnell, who was reportedly found about 10 minutes later hiding in the women's restroom of a restaurant.
A black replica handgun, which authorities believe was used in the robbery, was found in the vehicle, Engen said.
The laptop, which had since been sold to a Yorba Linda resident, was recovered and returned to its original owner, Engen added.
Parnell, a Canoga Park resident, and Davis, who is believed to be homeless but previously lived in Irvine, were booked into Orange County Jail on suspicion of armed robbery, conspiracy and petty theft.
