Kathrin and Adrian
We have four wonderful days spent at A Heavenly Vieuw.
Suzette is a lovely hostess, the view from the terrace is very beautiful and big apartment is lovely to stay in.
Wij hebben 4 heerlijke dagen doorgebracht bij Een Heavenly Vieuw.
Suzette is een fijne gastvrouw, het uitzicht vanaf het terras is erg mooi en het grote appartement is heerlijk om in te verblijven.
Wonderful stay in Muizenberg! Wow, amazing views of the ocean and very private, secure room. It was comfortable and made more so by Suzette who took the time each day and evening to look after us, give us guidance and friendship. We will be returning to the Cape Town area next month and expect to visit again.
One great thing is that "A Heavenly View 3" is so convenient to the town of Muizenberg and a short walk from restaurants , services, surf and other services. We met many friendly and interesting people in town as well. As we had a car, the trip to Cape Town city center is very direct and quick. All around you could not ask for more. Thanks Suzette!
Heavenly View was a wonderful place to stay in Cape Town. The room was nice and the view is really heavenly. Also Suzette was a great host. She was so nice and helpful. We would definitely come back!
Fantastic location! individually furnished apartment. Roof terrace with heavenly views and Suzette a lovely hostess. From Muizenberg you can start with the Metrorail great trips without a car, u a.nach Simon's Town or Cape Town. Come back here very much. Bye bye
Phantastische Lage! individuell eingerichtetes Appartement. Dachterrasse mit himmlischer Aussicht und Suzette eine reizende Gastgeberin. Von Muizenberg kann man auch ohne Auto mit der Metrorail tolle Ausflüge starten, u a.nach Simon's Town oder Cape Town. Komme sehr gerne wieder hierher. Bye bye
Felt comfortable with incredibly Suzette. She was always there for us and always helpful and warm. We can recommend this apartment highly enough and would use it in another Cape Town visit again for sure. Thank you Suzette for everything and all the best
Haben uns bei Suzette unglaublich wohl gefühlt. Sie war immer für uns da und stets hilfsbereit und warmherzig. Wir können dieses Apartment nur wärmstens empfehlen und würden es bei einem weiteren Kapstadtbesuch mit Sicherheit wieder buchen. Danke Suzette für alles und alles Gute
Everything as expected, and our host Suzette is super proffesional, very attentive and helpful when needed. Muizenberg is a good base for a stay in Cape Town area. The local sandy beach is great. Good shopping nearby.
In Cape Town and the surrounding area there is plenty to see and explore. With the kind help of Suzette we could explore a new experience every day. She gave us lots of tips and was open at any time for questions about South Africa. She helped us when booking the trip, so we could really admire a new experience every day.
To the room in a few words: Super Priced - Simple, but with love prepared - The most important thing for us was clean and we were fully satisfied. An ideal room for all the people "outside" spending in real life of the new country and explore their holiday not in the hotel but want to. We can in that room under price-performance point of view highly recommended. Another thing to hospitality of Suzette: We were invited to your New Year's Eve party, which we really enjoyed. :-)
In Kapstadt und Umgebung gibt es jede Menge zu sehen und erkunden. Mit der freundlichen Hilfe von Suzette konnten wir jeden Tag ein neues Erlebnis bestaunen. Sie hat uns jede Menge Tipps gegeben und war jederzeit für Fragen rund um Südafrika offen. Sie hat uns bei der Buchung der Trips geholfen, so konnten wir wirklich jeden Tag ein neues Erlebnis bestaunen.
Zu dem Zimmer in wenigen Worten: Supergünstig im Preis - Einfach, aber mit Liebe hergerichtet - Das wichtigste für uns war Sauberkeit und da waren wir voll zufrieden. Ein ideales Zimmer für alle Leute, die ihren Urlaub nicht im Hotel sondern "draußen" im wirklichen Leben des neuen Landes verbringen und erkunden möchten. Wir können, dass Zimmer unter Preis-Leistungs Gesichtspunkten wärmstens empfehlen. Noch was zur Gastfreundlichkeit von Suzette: Wir wurden zu Ihrer Sylvesterparty eingeladen, was uns wirklich sehr gefreut hat. :-)

Y1 or Y2?
The old thermostat used Y for cooling, the new one has Y1 and Y2. Which one do I hook up to?
If you have one stage of cooling Y1 is the hook up.
If you have two stages of cooling then Y1 is first stage and Y2 is second stage of cooling.
Thanks a lot for the quick help Artco, I really appreciate it.
The thermostat should have a setting. You will use Y1 as if it is plain Y, but you need to make sure the thermostat is also set for single stage cool mode.
Thank you for your help HVAC_NW, I got it working yesterday. It seem to work as it should in cooling and heating mode. I just double check on cooling mode setting and it set at stage 1 by default. Thank you for help in full detail.

Matt Cooke strikes again, this time in Colorado. When will the league put an end to this headhunter's antics? We discuss.
Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
You don't want to at the start time and a to be an excuse. But it was encouraging the last couple starts that he was coming off of I felt like there was every reason to think that there would be as good stuff for the trend he was showing -- pick up from last couple but. Just that the lack of finish to a stuff was the difference. John -- talking about Clay Buchholz and his performance yesterday. Sometime this afternoon. Matt Cooke of the Minnesota Wild will get an in person hearing. He's been invited notice the quotation fingers invited. To New York for an in person hearing with -- national like lately comment I'm gonna academic -- Actually you know what's funny -- -- -- -- -- decline in -- you can decline in person hearing you can say now just on the phone. But once they've extended the in person hearing it gives them the the of the ability under the CPA to suspend you for more than five games over the if they want yes but it like normally if they said look it upon hearing that means you know you you can't get more than five games but once they invite you in saying no. They can still give you more than pocket what he's an idiot if it goes. Let's just wants to go -- you're gonna try and and maybe Matt Cooke actually thinks he can come up with a defense for what he did. I don't think he can but he he has basically ended the playoffs season for Tyson -- With yet another career threatening type of -- and I know we here in Boston always go back to the Marc Savard hit with Matt -- and properly so. Fact of the matter is he has done this sort of thing for about three years he tried to clean up exact person Mario LeMieux set to look we can't defend the stuff anymore you gotta stop. Yes what let us -- with the trophies yet for. In hockey for. On -- in an end he was he was a candidate for this the master to he a candidate for the plug INN and the Pittsburgh writers nominated but three years ago it was just. The most absurd thing I've ever change his image to get it oh. I gut player I don't know not you don't like he's -- a good play it's got to Michael he's a marginal player in the national hockey on today's great player. -- is an all star player but if he couldn't play. Mario LeMieux and others. Would not continually. Be apologist form. He has some ability maybe maybe not enough ability to justify. All the drama. That he brings to an organization but you have to give the guy some credit. You know he's he's -- -- would you call him an above average player is in a. No average no comment on other matters are literally not know I would call image below average hockey player I I think he's a he's a marginal hockey player in the national hockey. I what it's like why people keep iron. He had he had a couple of years in Pittsburgh where he was in double digits in goals. You know a nineteen year a fifteen year a thirteen year he's never scored more than 38 points and a season. In the National Hockey League. He's out he's a marginal player who always played on that edge provocative well and in the the equivalent case here is a guy like Brad marsh land. Except marsh and the -- much much better player. Then Matt -- he has and marsh and it's always teetered on that that. Precipice you know going too far and and he's been suspended for the past and -- to its credit. -- kind of got grass by the lapel spikes both his coach Claude Julien and his own father and they said cut the crap here. Play the game the right way play on the edge but don't do that stuff or any stop don't. Matt Cooke tried and for about three years eating gets suspended while he's about it sucked pretty good. I've seen everything guest from from six games to 25 games I've literally seen that kind of range. My guess is somewhere around ten to twelve. And I think that's what he's gonna get it's woody dancer. You're allowed to read this text amounts are. That adamant that it doesn't make you laugh. -- -- an editor Erica I'm starting up star navy last I would like to share everything with you guys we have that kind of relationship that's one thing it can't. You can't mention that. I've had a lot of people on Twitter over the last eighteen hours or so a bunch of people here on the text machine already say you got to ban him for life well I don't think they can. I don't think under the terms of the of the CPA that they have any provision allows them to say. Matt -- you can't play here anymore you got ago you just debts that you got -- clearly why not I just on what looked you don't have to sign him but I don't think they can ban. In other words -- team just -- I I got no place. Form I you know I appreciate you very much phenomena prisoners did not appreciate it I used it. But I don't think that's at the leak cannot ban and they don't have the right. I mean god forbid short of him taken stick to somebody and ending their career in that regard. I don't think they have anywhere they can -- Mean they've had these egregious stick infractions in the past Bertuzzi and guys like that may have an even they haven't been kicked them out of the league for life. He's gonna get sucked pretty yet. Ever but Bertuzzi. I mean Bertuzzi had the -- the terrible incident. But was there a pattern was there. A pattern like the risk for cook for Bertuzzi. -- -- all right no there wasn't out now you'll you'll admit Bertuzzi was a very good excellent player he's not healthy scratch for the Detroit Red Wings by the way. Hasn't played neither the first two games probably won't play tonight. He's just he's just -- don't have any -- he doesn't know he was a very very good when I think about it I mean that happen. Incident happened to your opportunity now for -- -- 3830 now and now right. He's probably -- -- -- but yeah I'm sure it I'm sure he has somewhere in that ball out of the keys as -- -- Alfredsson but. He's up there and -- forgotten Alfredsson about forty point one. And speaking of hockey gods because of hockey in the red wings. Later in the show you have to stay tuned for the poetry of my man Mike Babcock. The public might just loved this guy Mike Babcock could be oh sorry when this series is over win or lose you're just going to be despondent that Mike Babcock got poetry slam the two guys here that. A little later and also. We're gonna solve this and about the final two today in -- ecology. Of our final four get down to our final two. Final four participants. Rage Against The Machine. Living color. Drop kick Murphy's and get it. Who did it down one of those final two will be our new our new -- treatment and that is -- -- You know I don't -- -- -- it's a good call by UND but see that's pretty darn good but Babcock. Is the anti mad. Joseph Maddon has been in a bar fight like Mike Babcock can alike guarantee Mike Babcock -- Anybody running -- last night -- Let it speak at a started -- let this man a hockey game when he'll be in a bar fights. This -- he's won the last people on American arm -- It goes into place -- -- -- -- A our school our red wings fan has texted me on the AT&T text line dale. Is Lucci to dirty player spend the fact that he's now hit three different players in the -- I wanna hear it out. Op while I only know -- too painful to even bring it up. And I'm sorry no I don't equate them even a little. Did any of the three players that that Milan -- -- were words where they out of line up for any length of time. Tyson -- soccer play the rest of the playoffs this is probably a 68 week. Thing for him he's going to be done Marc Savard tried to play after the Matt Cooke hit but in a fact Matt Cooke's hit ended Marc -- career. Sorry Milan which he didn't end anybody's career didn't put anybody's. Ability to procreate in jeopardy now but I know of no way man. I'm not try to justify what he did and saying -- hit you can't eat. Quite the two -- his his body of work. Is now on -- on par with. With -- as far as being a dirty player although pretty nasty place. Yes it was dumb it was it. I heard LB talking about this earlier to -- month alone and obese probably played on manage himself few times hockey players guys who played the game. Found what -- who cheats did a music. Universally Mike Milbury on on the NBC telecast the other -- -- can I laugh about this now. Jeremy Roenick said the same thing. Guys who have played the game found what -- cheats did amusing people who don't play the game group never played the game including -- In -- goal like god what has he done here. They're saying. That's the sort of thing happens in playoff games all the time that sort of thing a -- check -- unfortunately from line you know he didn't there's cameras everywhere. And you know he got cotton and he admits it was stupid now if if you try to somehow equate what -- -- did. With Matt -- sticking out his -- going neon meet with Tyson Barry last night and ending his playoff here sorry I'm not with young now. Detectives go to capture another. Texas this -- who YouTube too it's playing back to back it is that what we thought we call it. -- tag -- -- 6177797937. As the telephone number a Charlie Norwood Europe first on dale and Holley. I don't -- you. 890 got it back in the thank you don't admit like you guys I have a Bulgarian crew that worked in a -- fortieth but. That I would like Malawi this review -- I agree with the call -- These guys on the that'll. But like I would I would disagree with this element caller. When we heavily touted you great you know I'll agree with -- -- I -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- held. It out Detroit outplayed them in the second period what do you think Iowa. I don't know. What I have what it would. How -- tell me how -- tell me how the game went which team was clearly the better team in the game. I thought the rule and -- playing them all time but he's in debt and I said I was saying -- there and I -- standing is like I equate dog keeper. Right in is an Negroponte applaud. But I I was slightly game and I'm going cut them are not the Nintendo is -- sit back like oh Montreal. It's simply not yell at -- earned. And I can't stand saying because my my my 2000 let me I mean on call him an embarrassing again. But it took my big -- in our party. And he brought in and around our R&R. Girl Romney in the you know this didn't -- What's your what's your point all but what's your point overall Charlie are you worried about the Bruins were neck and yes I know I'd be a week we've gone over that what -- but what's your overall point are you worried about them. It's not it's -- to -- eight. Friday yeah. -- they can't do that they've got to go out all of gardens all armed and keep it shouldn't you know. And and I I I just think we talked about this -- yesterday. Which is closer to the real Bruins team when you -- Friday. With a when you saw Sunday. Because to me it's not even a question I watched this team play 82 games this year. That team I saw Sunday was a lot closer to what I watched all season long -- the team I watched Friday. Again not an excuse just -- statement of fact Friday was the first game they've played in almost three weeks that meant anything. And it took a while the cranked back up again. It's gonna is that a concern that it took him a lot of current backup an entire game no because I saw them. You know come out Sunday and just looked like a completely different unit I would expect you'll see them come out pretty similarly tonight. I think you'll see a team that will content sees this game by the throat and shake. Because they know that if they play that way. Detroit's got no answers. Be curious to see how Detroit placed -- Text about -- we want to introduce Antonio Cromartie and -- on the epidemic from excellence and. Proverb I don't know I don't article party I just my my point was I don't think that Milan Lucic each. As has caused any of these guys to not be able to get any children in oh I know I stop wait and -- and I now. We are we're a month did at the new gig in -- back on panic take a break. Right at 61777979370. AT&T text line 37937. Dale and -- Sports Radio W yeah.

A Facebook analysis studying journalists' use of the subscribe feature finds that the group have experienced a 320 percent average increase in subscribers since November, 2011.
However, this feature only became available in September 2011, and this analysis is only based on 25 media profiles.
They're journalists from national, state and local media outlets who have been using the subscribe feature since it launched in September, 2011.
Regardless, that reporters who are using subscribe on Facebook are seeing a much broader audience for their content.
Facebook claims that more than 50 reporters from The New York Times and more than 80 from the Washington Post are using the subscribe feature, in addition to small publications and international reporters (The staff of this blog also have subscribe buttons enabled).
According to the study, users are finding journalists on Facebook organically, either through their friends' news feeds or seeing a story and searching for the reporter's name on Facebook.
Why are journalists having such success with the subscribe feature? Here's some advice taken from the report.
Content Trends
- Questions and Input: 25 percent of posts contain a question for the reader. In an separate study, Facebook found that posts seeing input received 64 percent more comments, likes or shares.
- Links: 62 percent of posts contain a link. And when reporters include analysis with the links, those links receive 20 percent more referral clicks on average.
- Call to Action: 30 percent of posts contain language like "check out my interview with" or "click here to read this." Posts with a call to action receive 37 percent more engagement than an average posts.
- Photos: 12 percent of posts were photos. Posts with photos receive 50 percent more likes than posts without photos.
- Videos: 13 percent of posts are video.
Key Takeaways
So of the content that journalists are sharing, what actually works? The study found that several types of content seem to produce above-average feedback from subscribers:
- Commentary and analysis on current events and breaking news receives three times as many likes and two times as many shares as the average post.
- Reader shout-outs can increase in feedback by as much as fourfold. Also, asking for recommendations can lead to a three times increase in comments above an average post.
- In-depth analyses on global issues can yield a 150 percent increase in likes and 250 percent increase in shares.
- Powerful photos can double the engagement rate. Also, behind-the-scenes photos resulted in up to a fourfold increase in likes, comments and shares.
- Humor in posts or a humorous picture can yield a 150 percent increase in likes and almost fivefold increase in reshares.
Readers, if you use Facebook's subscribe feature, what's been your experience?

So, you want to send a "balikbayan box" to the Philippines but you don't know where to buy the box?
Don't worry, we got you covered. Below are links to places where you can purchase a box
for use in sending your "balikbayan box" to the Philippines. Links are noted if purchase is done
online only or in store near you. By the way, most of these places are not associated with us in any way.
Maharlikan Forwarder uses 28x18x18 as our large (standard) size box.
We also offer shipping for a smaller 24x18x18 size box for a little less.
Consider buying double-walled boxes for maximum protection during transit. Otherwise, you must double your box (putting 1 box inside another). Do this if you will be using a single-walled box just to make sure your box won't open during transit. Pack tightly and tape your box properly. Make sure none of your items can be move out of place inside the box.
If you want to purchase boxes from Maharlikan Forwarder, you must ask the agent near you. Call toll free, (877) 533-2228. If you are outside our area of service, you can purchase your box here online. We have also listed several national store chains where you can purchase your boxes directly in stores near you.
|Places To Buy Boxes From
|Au Chu Asian Store
3170 S. 27th St
|They sell balikbayan boxes for $4.75 per box. Size 28x18x18. This is our large (Standard) size. This place is just south of Oklahoma Ave. Accross Leon's Ice Cream Shop.
|Mail Express
2465 Lineville Rd.
Howard, WI.
54313 Tel. (920) 434-7100
|Our drop-off site in the Greenbay Area. Buy and send your boxes thru here.
|Armour Storage
|This is also our balikbayan box drop-off place in Milwaukee. Available Size 24x18x18. The boxes are sturdy single walled. For heavier package you might have to double box. Address: 999 West Mount Vernon, Milwaukee, WI. To buy 28x18x18 size box you must deal with the agent directly. Call the toll-free number or request a box online.
|U-Haul Stores
|Available Size 18x18x24. The only difference is it is standing up instead of laying down 24x18x18. This is our "small" box size. Also this is a single-walled box. So you need to buy two boxes and put one inside the other.
|Pack And Ship Stores in Chicago
|List From Yellow Pages. Make sure you call them first. Most Pack N Ship places carry box size 24x18x18. Ask for double walled type. This is our "small" box size. If they only have a single-walled box. You need to buy two boxes and double box (put one inside the other).
|Filipino Stores in Chicago
|List from Yelp.com. Usually a Filipino store sells balikbayan boxes. But make sure you call them first. Ask for a balikbayan box size 28x18x18. This is our standard size box. If they carry a different size, 1 inch bigger is allowable. Over the 1 inch allowance is a $5 fee per additional inch.
|Size 24x18x18 double walled is available here. The only thing, you must purchase online in lots of 15. Maybe a good deal if you are sending multiple boxes? Save unused boxes for later.
|If you can't find boxes at stores, you can purchase single walled boxes here. Sizes available 28x18x18 and 24x18x18. You must double your box when using this type of box. Drawback: Sold in lots of 10.

Press release: BT to provide high performance, more secure connectivity to Microsoft Azure
DC13-160 (9 April 2014)
Customers to benefit with new hybrid cloud service combining more secure and reliable connectivity with BT's global reach
BT and Microsoft announced today a global agreement to provide customers with high performance and more secure connectivity to Microsoft Azure, Microsoft's public cloud platform, with Microsoft Azure ExpressRoute.
Customers will be able to take advantage of the flexibility and agility offered by cloud resources, with the assurance of a dedicated, more secure connection to their data and applications.
Azure ExpressRoute allows customers to bypass the public Internet when connecting to Azure through a private connection based on BT's IP Connect VPN service. As a result, enterprise customers have a seamless, hybrid IT environment encompassing their corporate networks, data centres and the Azure cloud platform. BT's IP Connect VPN service, which is available in 198 countries and territories, integrates the Azure infrastructure directly with the wide area networks of customers. Customers will benefit from lower latency, more predictable performance and enhanced security for Azure workloads.
The service is due to go live in summer 2014 in Europe through direct network connectivity to Microsoft Azure data centres in Dublin and Amsterdam. This will be followed by connections in Asia, then by additional locations around the world.
Luis Alvarez, CEO, BT Global Services, said "IT departments everywhere face the same challenge; Cloud offers them the benefits of flexibility and lower costs, but security and reliability of access to data and applications remain main barriers to adoption. We will help customers build on their hybrid cloud strategies by bringing together BT's expertise and global network with the Azure platform. They will benefit from a globally consistent, more secure and reliable solution, helping them innovate and compete in the global market."
Jean-Philippe Courtois, President, Microsoft International, said "Microsoft and BT have an established history of delivering cloud solutions that meet the evolving needs of business across many industries. Today's announcement is yet another example of the two companies joining forces to help customers embrace cloud on their terms, by providing a more secure and reliable way to take advantage of the speed, flexibility and scale of hybrid solutions."
This new agreement builds on a long established relationship between the companies. In 2013 BT was awarded Office 365 Syndication Growth Partner of the Year. BT was also among the very first globally to provide Lync as a private cloud service.
Notes to Editors
BT operates a global network infrastructure with the ability to provide services for its customers in 198 countries and territories. BT takes a total network approach, global and local, integrating connectivity seamlessly to deliver improved business performance for its customers.
BT's powerful mix of highly available and reliable international network services such as IP Connect, Ethernet Connect, Internet Connect and Managed LAN combined with its applications performance management (Connect Applications) brings large organisations together with their employees, customers and the world.

CONTACT: Jeff Foley (518) 629-8085
FOR RELEASE: Immediate, Tuesday, January 21, 2003
Five Hudson Valley Community College students and Capital Region residents recently found out they have the "luck o' the Irish." Thanks to two study-abroad programs, both of which are offered through Hudson Valley's affiliation with the College Consortium of International Studies, the following students are spending the spring 2003 term in Ireland: Alexander Boyce of Glenville; Thomas Lansing of Wynantskill; Katie Lasky of Troy; Nathan Snow of Burnt Hills; and Philip Weinman of Albany.
Boyce, Lasky and Weinman will leave on February 3 to study at the University of Limerick, which is located on the banks of the Shannon River and enjoys a national reputation for its Business, Engineering, Education and Humanities programs. The program at the University of Limerick will conclude in late May.
Lansing and Snow, meanwhile, left on January 9 to study at Maynooth College, which is about 15 miles from the center of Dublin in County Kildare. Maynooth College provides students with a comprehensive overview of the development and history of Irish society, culture, literature and the arts. Lansing and Snow's program will conclude in early May.
"I spoke to each of the students recently, and they're excited for different reasons," said Amy Gumaer, director of International Programs at Hudson Valley. "Alex Boyce is excited about meeting new people and experiencing a completely new culture. Philip Weinman spoke about how the program will help him become a history professor or a political analyst. Katie Lasky is looking forward to spending time with cousins who live in Limerick and taking ecology courses. Thomas Lansing was enthusiastic about getting in touch with his Irish roots and meeting relatives who live in Galway. And Nathan Snow talked about his plans to become an English teacher; he felt that studying in Ireland will expand his understanding of European and Irish literature."
For all of the students except Boyce, this Ireland trip marks their first time overseas. Boyce, Weinman and Snow plan to hook up for another international adventure when their study abroad programs conclude in May. The trio is planning to purchase Interrail passes and backpack across Europe before returning to the United States.
Students interested in taking advantage of Hudson Valley's study abroad programs should contact Amy Gumaer at email@example.com. They also can visit her in Hudson Valley's Language Lab office, which is located in room 112 of Brahan Hall.
Founded in 1953, Hudson Valley Community College offers more than 50 degree and certification programs in four academic divisions: Liberal Arts and Sciences; Engineering and Industrial Technologies; Health Sciences; and Business; as well as programs run through the Educational Opportunity Center offering certification programs in workforce and academic preparation. One of 30 community colleges in the State University of New York system, it has an enrollment of more than 11,000 students, and it is known as a leader in distance learning initiatives and worker retraining. Hudson Valley has graduated more than 55,000 students.

Looking forward to participating in another swap. Barbgil

Looking forward to participating in another swap. Barbgil
Yippee! Yippee!! Let's go folks...do you think we can make 9 the biggest Boom ever??
I'm in as well, I'll take on a large group this time, as I found myself done with my small group too soon last time.
I actually have two fabric already: green with a light snowflake pattern. My hope is to get back many beautiful snowflakes done with all white fabric. Or, if you aren't sure up to the snowflake challenge, I have a butterfly pattern that has alot of green, purple, gold and black in the design.
Count me and my Dad in for a large group. He thought I finished the "small" group entirely too quickly so he wants more blocks to watch me make and more blocks for him to look at when they come in. He truly enjoyed his supervisor role and has already washed and ironed the fabric for me.
The quilt this time will be for him (he doesn't know that yet). I'm also going to ask for just black or black on black to be used if at all possible to match his fabric. Of course this will be in a note with each package.
I'll send an email.
Thanks for hosting again.
Names, names & names... come on y'all-- I know April needs suggestions for the group names.
I like the "candy" idea from last time since I'm sure we're all on New Year resolution diets (rolling my eyes)...this might be the only sweets we get each day :) Snickers, Baby Ruth, Tootsie Rolls, Mints, etc
Spices would be good too : Pepper, Cinnamon, Basil, Oregano, Cayenne, etc
Count me in for the small swap again please. This was fun!
LOLOL I have had some ideas sent to me. I think the number of groups will determine which way I go with names. That is at least one thing I can keep you all guessing on :-P
Me Me ME!!!!!!!
Thank you April...today is my birthday and this is the best present yet! Another boom...put me in every group you make! large and small....I love 'em all!....my fabric is cut but not stuffed...I will do that when the groups are assigned and the lists are out!

I consider Extension basically complete - quite a number of people are using it in projects. The main issue holding me back from submitting it for review by the Boost community is that I wanted to make the Reflection library part of Extension in a natural way, and I've been struggling at finding a balance between flexibility, performance and readability for the Reflection API. Also, of course, the Boost library review process is a bit painful - I'd need to block out at least 100 hours of my time to make sure the documentation, API, code, tests etc. were correct and easy to follow.
My previous post shouldn't be considered as much an obituary as an explanation of the slow progress lately. As I mentioned, I haven't been able to make much progress on the Reflection/Extension integration and new Extension features partially because it's difficult to design an API without having code that requires it.
If you find any features lacking in Extension, or aren't sure how to get the functionality you need, feel free to describe your use case to me - I can add the relevant functionality or documentation.
Also, always feel free to send patches. Extension is in the Boost sandbox:

ED Magedson – Founder
Ripoff Report
Penn Foster925 Oak Street Scranton, Pennsylvania United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
In December of 2009 I enrolled in the HVAC technician(heating - ventilation - air conditioning)course with Penn Foster school (mail and internet distance training).
My complaint is based on what was stated to me verbally from the administration at this school.
I enrolled under a payment plan with the total cost being $638.00.
It was verbally stated to me that when the course was paid in full I would receive shipment of all course materials, INCLUDING, MULTIMETER and MULTIMETER OPERATION MANUAL , RESIDENTIAL OIL BURNERS (reference text) and TROUBLESHOOTING HVAC-R EQUIPMENT (reference text).
Due to personal issues I was unable to complete this course in full and therefore did not receive a diploma. According to the Penn Foster administration because I did not receive a diploma at graduation I was not entitled to the above mentioned tools and reference texts.
These tools and reference texts are a very important part of the HVAC course .(valued at $200.00 ).
I paid the balance in full and was deceptively and unethically mislead to believe that I would recieve all of the course materials that I paid for.
Many students honestly are trying to improve their educations and careers.
My advice is do the research before you invest your hard earned money!

Are You REALLY Ready…
To Learn Why You're Not Getting Results?
Anyone that has been in Network Marketing (NWM) for any length of time quickly comes to realize there there are individuals that seem to "quickly" raise to the top… and those that will flouder around within their company for years…
Often the ones not making it are busy making something else… a lot of noise and excuses… a lot of if-I-only-hads and waiting-on-my-lucky-break….
At the end of the day, excluding the few genetic anomalies (sports athletes etc)… as a rule… those that get ahead don't do so because they had more lucky breaks, more opportunities, more money, more skills, more charm or more of frankly anything else you CAN'T have.
Opportunities are created, money is all about how far are you willing to stretch and sacrifice for your goals, personality requires a willingness to grow yourself outside of your comfort zone, and skills come from educating yourself…
Mike Dillard and Magnetic Sponsoring (of which I'm a proud affiliate) are currently launching an updated version of a course that hit me real deep.
This isn't some fluffy, lets pull the punches and tell everyone they're a winner kinda course…
This is a "here's why you're not where you're want to be, now take these steps or stop whining" kinda course.
This is a course to get your head screwed on straight and to open your eyes the the undercurrents in your own behavior (and those of your team) that may be sabotaging your "best efforts".
Like I said, I own version one of this course and it was definitely a course I enjoyed watching.
Even if your not in a place to be purchasing at the moment, I still suggest you opt in to get the free launch videos (you can always easily opt out later if you decide its not for you) and let them open your eyes.
I'm on video three at the moment and again finding myself slightly unnerved to have some of the mistakes I've been making shoved firmly back under my nose for analysis.
These videos aren't for the faint of heart, they aren't for the person too busy making excuses, they aren't for the person that isn't deeply and passionately HUNGRY for results.
If you're afraid of being made uncomfortable, definitely don't watch these videos.
You will not get the results you want until you're willing to get uncomfortable – out of your comfy little box, comfy little chair, comfy little safety zone… and reach, stretch, grow and take risks.
If what you're doing every day to grow your NWM business doesn't scare the crap out of you, you're rotting not reaching.
Ready to see another way?
Check out these videos.
Wishing You All The Results You've Earned…
Nothing More… Nothing Less…

There's no way that those died due to an airflow issue, especially with those two 80mm fans, like Kougar mentioned. I know the guys who did that video and they take things seriously, so I don't think they'd overlook something so simple. What's amazing to me, is that all six died within two minutes of being at 75% load... that's nuts!
Corsair does make some great PSUs though (which is why we have a 1KW of theirs in our main rig), so I guess they have all the reason in the world to point these facts out to people.
As for PSUs that have died, I've killed a few in the past, but that was mostly before I began to take things seriously and "got a clue" so to speak. The worst hardware-related incident I had with a new product was with BFG's 6800 GT PCI-E. This particular card was the third I got back from RMA (yes, these cards were crap), and on the first boot, it sparked up and killed itself and also my monitor. Was not a good day.

Skills can help you do all sort off things like picking up the ball, throwing the ball and so on. Most players start with one or more skills, while other players can earn skills after earning enough SPP to earn a Level.
General SkillsEdit
- Dauntless: If the player attempts to block an opponent who is stronger than themselves and they successfully roll higher than the Strength of their opponent (rolling D6 + their strength), they will be considered to have the same strength for this Block.
- Dirty Player: Add 1 to an Armor or Injury roll made by a player with this skill when they make a 😺Foul.
- Fend: Opposing players may not follow up blocks made against this player, even if the player with Fend is knocked down
- Frenzy: A player with Frenzy must always follow up after throwing a Block at an opposing player. In addition, they must make a second block against the same opponent if the first result was Pushed Back.
- Kick: The ball will scatter half as much as usual. The player must be in the pitch at kick-off, but not on the wide zone or on the line of scrimmage.
- Kick-off return: A player on the receiving team, not on the line of scrimmage or in a tackle zone, may move up to 3 squares at kick-off. Only one player can use this skill at each kick-off
- Pass Block: A player may move up to 3 squares to attempt an interception or otherwise hamper a Pass move declared by the opponent. This is a 'free' move out of turn, but it follows all the normal rules for moving, dodging, etc.
- Pro: once per turn the player has a 1/2 chance of being able to re-roll a failed action.
- Shadowing: a player with Shadowing may attempt to follow an opposing player who dodges out of their tackle zone. ( dodging unit MA ) - ( enemy unit MA ) + 2D6.If the final result is 7 or less they move into the square vacated by the opposing player. No dodge rolls are required for this action. A player may make any number of shadowing moves per turn. If the final result is 8 or more avoid Shadowing.
- Strip Ball: When a player with this skill pushes an opposing player during a Block, they will cause the opposing player to drop the ball in square they are pushed back to, even if the opposing player is not Knocked Down.
- Sure Hands: A player with Sure Hands is allowed to re-roll the result if they fail to pick up the ball. In addition, the Strip Ball skill does not work against a player with this skill.
- Tackle: Opposing player may not use their Dodge skill when attempting to dodge out of this player's tackle zone, nor may they use their Dodge skill if the player blocks if the player chooses to use Tackle.
- Wrestle: A player with Wrestle may choose to ignore a Both Down result during a block by placing both the players prone, but no Armor rolls are made. In addition, this does not cause a turnover.
Agility SkillsEdit
- Catch: A player with Catch can re-roll a failed catch, interception or dropped Hand Off.
- Diving Catch: The player gets a +1 modifier to catch accurate passes, and May catch balls landing in an adjacent square as if they landed in his current square.
- Diving Tackle: The player may use this skill after an opposing player attempts to dodge out of any of his tackle zones. The player is placed prone in the vacated area, but does not to make an Armor or Injury roll. The opposing player must subtract 2 from their dodge roll
- Dodge: Allows a player to re-roll a failed dodge. In addition, the are only Pushed back on a "Defender Stumbles" result
- Jump Up: The player may stand up without paying the usual 3 squares of movement. If they wish to make a Block action, they must successfully pass a Jump Up roll (+2 agility Roll) or the Block Action is wasted and the player may not stand up.
- Leap: The player can leap over another player. For the leap to be successful, the player must pass an Agility test without any modifiers. If the player is unsuccessful, the player falls to the ground.
- Side Step: The player can choose any empty square in their tackle zone to be pushed back into after a block, even is the result is that they are knocked down.
- Sneaky Git: During a Foul action, a player with this skill is not sent off by the referee for rolling doubles on the Armor roll if this didn't break the opponents armor.
- Sprint: The player may attempt to move up to 3 extra squares rather than the normal 2 when Going For It. The coach must still roll to see if the player is Knocked Down.
- Sure Feet: A player may re-roll the result if they fail a Go For It action, once per turn.
Passing SkillsEdit
- Accurate: Adds +1 when attempting a pass action.
- Dump-Off: The player may attempt a Quick Pass, when an opponent tries to Block them, allowing the player to (hopefully!) safely get rid of the ball.
- Hail Mary Pass: A player using this skill can throw the ball anywhere in the pitch, even beyond the normal range for pass. However, the pass is never accurate.
- Leader: The player is a natural leader and earns the team a special Leader re-roll. This works in the same as team re-rolls but may only be used if the leader is on the pitch.
- Nerves of Steel: The player ignores modifiers for enemy tackle zones when they attempt to pass, catch or intercept.
- Pass: The player can re-roll if he throws an inaccurate pass or fumbles.
- Safe Throw: If a pass made by this player is ever intercepted then the Safe Throw player may make an unmodified Agility roll. If this is successful the the interception is canceled.
Strength SkillsEdit
- Break Tackle: The player can use Strength in place of Agility when attempting a dodge action. This skill may only be used once per turn.
- Grab: The player can choose where to push after a block in order to position him to his advantage.
- Guard: A player with this skill assists an attacking or defensive block even if they are in another player's tackle zone.
- Juggernaut: If the player performs a Blitz action the opposing players may not use their Fend, Stand Firm or Wrestle skills against blocks. In addition they may choose to treat a Both Down result as Pushed Back.
- Mighty Blow: Adds +1 to any Armour or Injury roll made by a player when an opponent is hit during a block.
- Multiple Block: A player who is adjacent to at least two opponents can try to block the two of them at the same time. Each opponent will gain a +2 bonus in Strength to represent the extra difficulty in succeeding with this type of action.
- Piling On: After a Block, if the opponent is Knocked down, the player can throw himself on top of them and provides a re-roll for either an armor or injury roll. However, the player will end up on the ground.
- Stand Firm: A player with this skill may not be pushed back as a result of Pushed Back or Knock Down during a block.
- Strong Arm: When the player tries to pass the ball the distances taken into account is reduced.
- Thick Skull: This skill reduces the chance of a KO result by 50% to a Stunned result.
Mutation SkillsEdit
- Big hand: The player ignores enemy tackles zones or Pouring Rain when they try to pick up the ball.
- Claw: When an opponent is Knocked Down by the player during a block any Armor roll of 8 or more, after modifications, automatically breaks armor.
- Disturbing Presence: Any player must subtract 1 from their Agility for any attempted passes, interceptions, or catches if they are within 3 squares of the player.
- Extra arms: A player with extra arms adds +1 to all catch, interception or pick up ball tests.
- Foul Appearance: The player's appearance is so horrible that any opposing player must pass a Foul Appearance roll to be able to block him (1/6chance).
- Horns: a player with horns gains +1 in Strength when he performs a Blitz action.
- Prehensile Tail: Opposing players must subtract 1 from the D6 roll if they attempt to dodge out of any of the player's tackle zones.
- Tentacles: To successfully dodge or leap away from a player with tentacles, the opposing player must pass a Strength test. 2D6 + player's ST - Tentacles player's ST. Result 5 or less can't leave the tackle zone. Action ends immadietly.
- Two Heads: Adds +1 to all dodge rolls the player makes.
- Very Long Legs: +1 to interception and leap. Prevents use of the Safe Throw skill.
Extraordinary SkillsEdit
- Always Hungry: The player has a 1/6 chance of devouring his team-mate when he tries to throw him. If the victim fails to squirm free, they are eaten, which kills the team-mate without a chance of recovery! If the victim manages to escape, it is considered a Fumble.
- Bone-Head: Before attempting any action they must pass a Bone-Head test (1/6 chance). If they fail this then they may not make any actions for the remainder of the turn. In addition they lose their tackle zone.
- Chainsaw: A player armed with chainsaw must attack an opponent. Roll a D6. On a roll of 2 or more the chainsaw hits the opposing player, but on a roll of 1 it kicks back. The victim rolls an Armor Value +3. Armor rolls against the chainsaw player are also made at +3. Casualties caused by the chainsaw do not earn SPP.
- Loner: Loners are not great team players. If they wish to use a team re-roll, they must successfully pass a Loner roll (1/2 chance). If they fail, the re-roll is lost.
- No Hands: The player cannot carry the ball
- Really Stupid: The player has a 1/2 chance of becoming Really Stupid and may not perform any actions for the rest of the turn, in addition they lose their tackle zone. If a team mate is standing adjacent to the player, the chance to fail is reduced to a 1/6 chance.
- Regeneration: If they player is injured or killed, after any attempts by the Apothecary, they have a 1/2 chance to regenerate themselves and are placed in the reserves ready for the next drive.
- Right Stuff: Enables a player to be thrown by a team-mate who possesses Throw Team-Mate skill.
- Secret Weapon: At the end of any drive in which the player took part, he will automatically be sent off by the referee.
- Stab: A player may attack an opponent with their stabbing attack instead of throwing a block at them. Make an unmodified Armor roll for the victim. If the score is less than or equal to the victim's Armor value then the attack has no effect. If the score beats the victim's Armor value then they have been wounded and an unmodified Injury roll must be made. If Stab is used as part of a Blitz Action, the player cannot continue moving after using it. Casualties caused by a stabbing attack do not count for Star Player points. For normal players there is only the Dark Elf Assassin who comes with the Stab ability. There are though some star players that have Stab and if you do get enough inducement money, you will be able to hire one.
- Stunty: A player with Stunty may ignore any enemy tackle zone on the square he is moving to when he makes a dodge, but subtract 1 from the roll when they pass. In addition, an Injury roll of 7 made against a Stunty player is considered a KO, and an Injury roll of 9 is considered a Badly Hurt casualty. Stunties that are armed with a secret weapon are not allowed to ignore enemy tackle zones.
- Take Root: At the start of any action, the player rolls 1D6. If a 1 is rolled, the player may not move (or Block as part of a Blitz action) until the end of the drive, or they are knocked over.
- Throw Team-Mate: Enables a player to throw a team-mate who possesses Right Stuff skill.
- Weeping Dagger: If this player inflicts a casuality durning a block, and the result of the Casuality roll is 11-38 after any re-rolls, roll a D6. On a result of 4 or more, the opposing player must miss next game. Out of the referre's sight!
- Wild Animal: The player can become uncontrollable during a match and must pass a Wild Animal test to successfully perform an action. There is a 1/2 chance that they will be able to carry out the action required. This is increased to an 5/6 chance in case of a Block or Blitz.

Where I stayed
Blue Mountain Trading Post and RV Park
We visited their little museum. And it was very nice for a small town. It was settled by the Mormons who were forced to leave Mexico. It took many years to get water out here, but now they are irrigating for alfalfa or something similar. I think that's one of our problems. People are always trying to alter their environment to fit their needs, instead of settling in an environment that suits their needs. Do you wonder why we have a water problem.
The last little town we passed through in Arizona was Kayenta. It is a tiny community of mostly Native Americans, but it was totally congested
21 miles north of Kayenta is Monument Valley. Those rock formations were so striking, rising up from the flat land in forms that resembled man-made monuments. They were bold and strong looking.
The first community we came to in Utah was Mexican Hat. You will see the small rock formation in our photos for which the town is named. The San Juan River flows through the center of town (?) and I guess that's why this place exists. I will not move there. In fact, I haven't found that place yet.
I am hoping tomorrow we will do more sightseeing and stopping to smell, never mind about the smelling. I just hope we aren't in such a rush. We are heading northwest toward Capital Reef National Park, but there are many interesting things on the map between here and there and I'm determined to see some. Eventually, I'll let you know.
Good night, my family and friends. Sleep like you're in no rush to see the morning light...

Generally speaking, I prefer old world (generally little known) real life working/nanny breeds for the job. They typically are far healthier/stable dogs, that live about 50%~100% longer then common breeds! Generally i won't consider labs, goldens, poodles, dobes, rottis, st bernards, collies, etc. because their breeding has been so poor as to make it unsafe/unwise to use them! Most don't live past 4 or 5, have major system defects, behavioral/health issues, etc!

I like it.
I'd like to see it black and white with the type in color...
looks very good but you should try making the font is a little plain for the background you made.
I dont care for the font,or color of it,I like the rest though


text: I guess it makes sense to restart the thread for general questions about the site. On my profile, it says my favourite player is Torres - is there anyway to change that, it's about three years out of date! I had a look through the available options, but couldn't see anything obvious.

black jacket with zips / Asger Juel Larsen
grey harem trousers / Issey Miyake
brown sunglasses / Cutler and Gross
black clutch / vintage
black boots / Aldo
boots chains / vintage
My outfit for day 2 of London Fashion Week this season was again mostly lent to me by some amazing PR agencies & designers while I did some filming for 1883 Magazine. Big thanks again to Cutler and Gross for the sunglasses and to Blow Pr for the AJL jacket - I love the zips and layers and leather detailing and it was the perfect match for these baggy grey trousers from Issey Miyake. Check out some backstage shots from the Asger Juel Larsen FW12 show HERE.
On Day 2 we were having a few technical difficulties with focusing and I said 'um' like 75 times I swear in that 2 minute video - I definitely got a lot more comfortable later in the week! Click on the links for backstage pictures of the shows I talked about including Elisa Palomino who had the models in bright pink & purple hair and the Avatar meets Last of the Mohicans styling that went into the Florian Jayet show.
Here's a close up of the western style buckles I wore over my boots - they are meant for cowboy boots but look great over a simple ankle boot or a pair of Doc's.
ps. Thanks to Toni Tran from fashitects.blogspot.com for the first two photographs!

Affleck's 'Argo' wins Directors Guild top honor
By David Germain, AP Monday, February 4, 2013, 12:00 am TWN
LOS ANGELES--Ben Affleck has won the top film honor from the Directors Guild of America for his CIA thriller "Argo," further sealing its status as best-picture front-runner at the Academy Awards.
Saturday's prize also normally would make Affleck a near shoo-in to win best-director at the Feb. 24 Oscars, since the Directors Guild recipient nearly always goes on to claim the same prize at Hollywood's biggest night.
But Affleck surprisingly missed out on an Oscar directing nomination, along with several other key favorites, including fellow Directors Guild contenders Kathryn Bigelow for "Zero Dark Thirty" and Tom Hooper for "Les Miserables."
Affleck's Oscar snub has not hurt "Argo" and may even have earned it some favor among awards voters as an underdog favorite. "Argo" has dominated other awards since the Oscar nominations.
"I don't think that this makes me a real director, but I think it means I'm on my way," said Affleck, who won for just his third film behind the camera.
The Directors Guild honors continued Hollywood's strange awards season, which could culminate with a big Oscar win for Affleck's "Argo." The guild's prize for best director typically is a final blessing for the film that goes on to win best-picture and director at the Oscars.
Affleck can go only one-for-two at the Oscars, though. While "Argo" is up for best picture, the director's branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences overlooked him for a directing slot.
The guild and Oscar directing lineups usually match up closely, but they have little in common this season, with only Steven Spielberg for "Lincoln" and Ang Lee for "Life of Pi" nominated at both shows.
Along with them and Affleck, the guild nominated Kathryn Bigelow for "Zero Dark Thirty" and Tom Hooper for "Les Miserables." At the Oscars, Spielberg and Lee are joined in the directing category by Michael Haneke for "Amour," David O. Russell for "Silver Linings Playbook" and Benh Zeitlin for "Beasts of the Southern Wild."
Director Norman Jewison, the guild's 2010 lifetime-achievement prize winner, presented Bigelow with her nomination plaque and noted the incongruity of the Oscar best-picture field, which has nine nominees, while there are only five directing slots.
With 12 Oscar nominations, Steven Spielberg's Civil War saga "Lincoln" initially looked like the Oscar favorite over such other potential favorites as "Argo," "Les Miserables" and "Zero Dark Thirty," since films generally have little chance of winning best picture if they are not nominated for best director. Only three films have done it in 84 years, most recently 1989's best-picture champ "Driving Miss Daisy," which failed to earn a directing nomination for Bruce Beresford.
But Affleck's "Argo," in which he also stars as a CIA operative who hatches a bold plan to rescue six Americans during the hostage crisis in Iran, has swept up all the major awards since the Oscar nominations. "Argo" won best drama and director at the Golden Globes and top film honors from the Screen Actors Guild and the Producers Guild of America.

The HKS website has a size chart. Looks like there 29-M will work.
Where do I fine a speedloader for s&w 44 magnum model 69.
I disagree.
S&W M69 is a five-shot revolver; the 29-M loaders are for six-shot S&W and Ruger .44 Mags. These will not work in a S&W 69.
The S&W 69 has the same cylinder diameter as the S&W 696, a five-shot .44 Special.
On the chart linked above, the CA-44 model loader is listed for the S&W 696, so I would think the CA-44 would also work for the S&W 69.
Listen to DJ. I didn't realize 69 was a 5 shot.
I bought an HKS CA-44 speedloader for a Charter Arms Bulldog, .44 Special. It will work but a small difference in cylinder vs loader configuration make it so that you have to wiggle it slightly to get the rounds in. SAFARILAND and HKS we need help!

Google Analytics is the default choice within web analytics for many webmasters, however there are many interesting alternatives on the market.
Did you know that Yahoo is working on a analytics program that looks very promising, or that there are many free analytics programs that offers integrated SEO reports or real time reporting?
In this post we'll give you an overview of the exciting options within free web analytics.
Google Analytics (GA) is the default choice of many webmasters, since it's easy to install, and provides reliable and detailed statistics.
The reason why Google is giving away a tool like GA, is to increase the awareness of the value of online advertising among website owners, and thereby hopefully generate more Adwords revenue.
There is nothing wrong with this approach, but it means that GA is great at some things, and not so great at other things.
Logically enough GA is one of the best tools on the market for campaign tracking and campaign ROI calculation. However if you have a social site or a blog, the lack of eg. real time statistics can be a problem.
In the lineup in this post, I have found potential alternatives to Google Analytics that each have some interesting approaches to web analytics.
Clicky is focused on delivering easy to overview statistics i real time. Clicky has an API so you can access and integrate the data within other applications. Clicky has a very extensive list of features and can be a alternative to Google analytics even on campaign tracking, where Google Analytics is normally very strong.
Woopra is a JAVA based desktop client, that offers extended statistics. Woopra has strong features for blogs, like
Woopra is currently in public beta, but you can apply to be a tester, and then see if you're lucky to be invited to the beta test.
Chartbeat is not entirely free, but they have a 30 day free trial, so they qualify in some sence to be on this post. The interesting thing about Chartbeat is the social dimension of this tool. You can see in real time what content is most used at your site, and thereby also modify the content, so you get the best out of your visitors.
To empower you in this optimization process, Chartbeat offers some unique engagement metrics, that gives you detailed insight in how users are interacting with your content – eg. how far they are scrolling don on your pages.
Piwik.org is a open source web analytics program, based on PHP and MySQL. This means that you need to install this program on your own server, which has some advantages -eg. less dependency on 3th party services, no delivery of data to 3th party services, better control over response times.
The package delivers a nice set of standard analytics, including real time tracking, but the downside is (to some), that you have to install and maintain the service on your own server .
Open Web Analytics
Open Web Analytics (OWA) is a open source web analytics program, just like Piwik. OWA is based on PHP and mySQL and you have to install and maintain it on your own server. From a analytical point of view, OWA covers all the basic needs, including real time statistics.
Sometrics offers the program Social analytics, that provides analytics specially targeted to social latforms like Facebook, Myspace, Bebo and Friendster
GoingUp was on of the surprises in this lineup to me. The user interface is very appealing, and the features includes standard web analytics metrics as well as SEO reports and statistics for social sites. One of the most impressive features is the Heat Map functionality, that enables you graphically to see how users are interacting with your content. You should really check out this tool…
Yahoo! Web Analytics
Yahoo bought the compagy Index Tools in 2009, and is now launching Yahoo! Web Analytics (YWA) based on the Index Tools platform. So far YWA is only available for Yahoo Small Business ecommerce solution, or bigger Yahoo advertising customers. Hopefully Yahoo is soon going to offer this great tool to a greater audience, since this looks like a very worthy competitor to Google Analytics. YWA offers real time statistics, user demographics, and very detailed campaign tracking.
Statcounter is one of the old players in the tracking game. The statistics is pretty basic, and the UI has lot's of commercials.
Sitemeter is a very basic web analytics solution. The free version has a limited set of metrics included. You can upgrade to a premium version that contains more features. However most of the features in the premium version is available as free metrics form some of the other solutions in this post.
103bees is specialized in metrics around SEO and viral marketing. The tool has SEO rankings included in the dashboard, as well as some interesting Long Tail content reports
GoStats has a nice set of features, including the path analysis, that's missing in Google Analytics
Hitstats provides all the normally required metrics, and presents them in a very nice user interface.
Shinystat has a free version for personal and non commercial sites. The free version includes basic statistics, and has a number of both visible and invisible tracking code scripts.
Stat24 includes both statdard features as well as some more advanced features, including heat map. For increased SEO benefits, Stat24 has a seo friendly where sites tracked by Stat24 can be included.
