New retirees: Avoid these mistakes
From jumping the gun to moving too far, these are the blunders not to make when transitioning into retirement.
If you have saved and can afford to retire take it because any day being retired is better than any day at work.
You get to play with the grandchildren which makes up or the time you couldn't spend with your own children because of work.
There are no guarantees that you will stay healthy or live long.
If you are 85 and broke who cares, you probably won't know it.
In twenty years ask the retires who went at 62 how they enjoyed retirement and compare it to the guys that waited until they were 70.
Think of early retirement as helping the younger generation to find a job. (patriotic)
You get to laugh at those still stuck in the rat race.
Money isn't everything and it really doesn't buy happiness.
Enjoy every day it could be your last.
I was going to wait until 70 but I didn't and have had fun, why wait until your to old to enjoy the fruits of your labor. If you don't have enough money to travel so what, we enjoy just going for a few days somewhere. I really don't care about other countries, I just want to see the USA.
Hey get your SS and enjoy what life you have left, we did and its great.
I'm an advocate of taking Social Security at the minimum age. You can get less money for a longer time, as opposed to more money for less time. In many cases, it works out to about the same total, because we die! Don't forget that death wipes out or vastly reduces SS for the other spouse. It vanishes, in effect. If you're alive now, collect now.
Moving somewhere you don't know anyone
I don't know anyone here!
Quitting before you are vested in your retirement plan
I'm 100% vested.
Retiring before you set up health insurance
I'm already over medicare age and STILL working.
Thinking your health will hold out forever
Hospitals couldn't be much further away thean they are now.
Taking Social Security too soon
Don't plan to start collecting until 70.
Spending too much on travel and new hobbies
It's in the budget
Forgetting to take required minimum distributions
It's in the budget
I guess there's nothing to keep me from leaving this rotten state!
Don't let the politicians cut the Social Security cost-of-living adjustment. President Obama has even supported this. A proposed cut of .3% will reduce the average monthly benefit by $40-$65 in 10 years. Don't let this happen to the future 70 and 80 year old retirees. It'll be too late to correct the problem in 10 years. Sign a Whitehouse petition at "http(colon)//wh(dot)gov/PX3a"
Social Security is self-funded. It should not be part of budget reductions. State and local public employee retirement systems are not raided by the government to balance the budget.
The truly entitled are the 535 shill-masters
calling the shots in DC, with much self-
affection lavished through public funds.
Let those who are targeting the rest
of us as the cause of economic
downturns, take a good, strong look
at their own "entitlements" first and

The word cake in the title is VERY misleading. It is melted chocolate, period. Good melted chocolate but not worth the expense or calories. There are much better chocolate desserts.

10 Portable Charging Solutions For Smartphone and Laptop Travelers
1. Mophie Juice Pack Powerstation Duo: with the option to charge two devices at once, a capacious 6000 mAh power rating, fast 2.1 amp charging output, and built-in short circuit overcharge protection, this battery is ideal for sharing with another user. $99.95
2. Mophie Juice Pack Helium for iPhone 5: this is what I throw onto my iPhone whenever I'm traveling beyond the city limits. The exterior case adds up to 6 additional hours of LTE data from a 1500mAh battery built with a satisfying to touch cetacean skin case finish. $79.95
3. Hammacher Schlemmer's The Thinnest Backup Laptop Battery: reduced down to nearly half its initial price, this slim profile battery weighs less than 1 1/2 lbs yet packs a beefy 13,200 mAH battery for up to 3 1/2 hours extra laptop time, ideal for long cross country flights. $99.95
4. myCharge Peak 6000 Rechargeable Power Bank: the 6000mAh battery means you can yap away an extra 27 hours while connected via a Micro-USB and Apple 30-pin connector (sorry, iPhone 5/new iPad users). At just 8.5 ounces, it's easy to toss into carry-on luggage for insurance you won't have to hunt for an open outlet when you land. $99.00
5. Powerbag Messenger Bag with Battery Charger: an all-in-one solution, this padded messenger bag can accommodate for a 15" laptop, while dedicated Apple and M2 connectors with micro and mini USB cables connect devices to a removable 3000 mAh battery hidden within. $65.05
6. Monoprice 3000mAh External Battery Pack: Monoprice is geek reknown for their selection of affordable cables and cords, but it's not the first place we thought to check for external batteries. But like once again, their self-branded mobile device charger is similarly a good deal at just $22.88
7. HyperJuice External 222Wh Battery: There are external batteries and then there's the HyperJuice. The 222-watt-hour lithium ion battery can power a MacBook for 32 hours, recharge an iPhone 52 times, and probably power Delorean back in time. A serious power source at a serious price: $449.95
8. Twelve South PlugBug Charger: this one isn't a battery, but rather an ingenious wall adaptor charger which plays dual roles: plug it in and charge your MacBook laptop, while the addition of a USB charging slot on the back permits charging a mobile device at the same time. An added bonus: the red design will make it easy for you to identify your wall charger amongst a sea of similar Apple branded laptop units. $34.99
9. Fast Battery Charging 2X Android App: we'll take the app developer's claim of 30%-50% faster charging with a grain...ahem...box full of salt. The reviews seem to veer just north of "this helped", but note the fine print. The app is purely a placebo to prank your wishful thinking friends. It's free, so no harm, no foul.
10. JB Powered Laptop Tote by Urban Junket: a combination of fashion and function, this laptop tote offers an unlisted sized internal battery pack purported to keep devices charged on the go. Cord storage, 5 internal pockets, and a large front pocket enclosure makes for a formidable shoulder-side travel companion. $239.95

You might also want a good 12V (car) charger. For Apple products, nothing beats Mikegyver's solutions (http://www.mikegyver.com/IdeasnProducts/). I don't get anything from him for promoting that link. I just think more people need to know about his products. Sure, you can charge through an inverter, but his solution is so much more energy efficient. The laptop charger has a USB port that charges my iPad or iPod Touch at the same time.
Check out this cool Eco friendly charging gadget. It uses kinetic energy! Super cool. http://www.npowerpeg.com/
Made by some local Clevelanders:)
what should have been included in this post is an iTazte : http://www.ecigdistributors.com/itaste-mvp/
This item doubles as a e-cigarette as well as USB port that charges anything that plugs into a USB! Crazy, I know! And, it is actually priced less than a "Mophie" juice pack.
I gotta say I've been so happy with my http://www.jackeryusa.com/ . I have the smallest guy, and it will fully recharge my phone, and fits into my jeans pocket no problems. They're other solutions seem great to, but since I walk alot and use my phone a lot the most pocketable one is the most useful to me.
I suppose if you have a bag/briefcase/purse you can carry around a battery pack, but what if you're just heading out with your phone in your pocket and not much else. Assuming you're clothed ;)

One of my favorite shots from a shoot I did last week with my classmates. They were all so beautiful and easy to shoot. And they took directions, which was nice too.
I want to make more photographs like this. It feels like a fashion shoot.
taken on Friday night at my school's writer's studio. the rain produces a kind of wet glow of the plants. i love it. the rain seems to have stopped.
Then, after about an hour and a half's drive, we went up to Healdsburg to a winery. It was sunny and warm and we tried about 5 different wines before settling on the cheapest and eating our picnic outside.

On April 22, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon offshore drilling rig sunk into the Gulf of Mexico creating the worst oil spill in history. Until the oil well was killed the following September 19, a total of 779,037, 744 liters of crude oil and over 7 million liters of chemical dispersant spread into the sea.
By exposing the root causes of the spill, filmmakers Josh and Rebecca Tickell (who were responsible for the Sundance award-winning film FUEL) uncover a vast network of corruption. The film is a damning indictment of a system of government led by a powerful and secretive oligarchy that puts the pursuit of profit over all other human and environmental needs.
The Big Fix, which was an official selection of the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, features Peter Fonda as well as original music by Jason Mraz. The New Orleans Film Festival is pleased to host the film's North American Premiere on Opening Night.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
We really do get a lot more information than we used to regarding bugs and fixes. While our comments in the forums were probably considered just as often it really feels like our feedback is actually on the radar because of Ghostcrawler and his comments.
I think a lot of people have this attitude that Blizzard, or more often Activision, is this horrible monster out for our money. While I'm sure money is always a consideration, Blizzard does want the game to be entertaining. How could they not? It seems sometimes people take things far, far too personally. Each person is entitled to an opinion, each person should also keep in mind you are a single player in a very large sea, and one person's opinion does not necessarily reflect those of the population. Heck, even those forum polls with dozens of people agreeing may still only be a small, vocal majority.
MMOenthusiast said...
I wish I could upvote this more.
It honestly scares me the amount of knee-jerk reactions people dish out without thought to how their words sound.
Sure, we can all get our tinfoil hats and chase after conspiracies regarding blizz always looking to milk the cash cow (sparkle ponies didn't help this) but since the beginning days of warcraft I and II, they have generally been about making games fun.
The amount of feedback we get today is paramount to ye olde days of 'here comes the warrior/druid/rogue/insert random class here patch! Duck for cover or rejoice!'
I mean honestly, I don't understand the amount of patience GC has considering he pretty much has to babysit all the forum babies all day, everyday...as long as he continues working for Blizzard. *shudders*
Agreed about the knee-jerk reactions and some of the over the top whining that GC has to deal with, but if you don't think the bottom line is money then you're fooling yourself.
Unlike certain other MMO companies that I've had experience of *cough*SquareEnix*cough*, Blizzard have realised that listening to and having a good relationship with your customers keeps them being customers for longer. So when Blizzard fks something up, like hunters as they originally were after 4.0.1, you at least know that they will listen to constructive feedback and probably do something about it. It stops people rage-quitting the game when they know that Blizzard are aware of their problem.
So yeah, the customer isn't always right, but sometimes they are and in those cases well run companies take notice and do something about it, because it means better profits for them in the long run.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I was just looking up the Ironweave set. According to WoWhead, several items are no longer available in game because they depended on an item no longer acquirable in game (http://www.wowhead.com/item=22057#comments). These include:
Ironweave Pants (Kormok summons by item)
Ironweave Cowl: (Lord Valthalak summons by item)
Ironweave mantle: (Theldren summons by http://www.wowhead.com/item=21986#comments said to be no longer available)
Ironweave Robe (alleged to be no longer available because quest to get it no longer available)
Is this info incorrect that I got from WoWhead? Or was the error with the article?
Also found this:
Most notably:
"Patch 4.0.3a (2010-11-23): All items that compromised Dungeon Sets 1 are no longer dropping from their respective locations. The reason for that is currently unknown as Blizzard gave no clear statement on that matter. The quests for Dungeon Set 2 are also gone."
So it seems we'd be wasting our time to go try for these sets?

Alex Clare sails into Top 100 Electronic after MS IE 9 Commercial
Here's an example of where sync has worked really well. Microsoft featuring Alex Clare's track "Too Close" on their latest Internet Explorer 9 commercial has propelled the musician from an average of 100 or so new fans per day to way over 3000 new fans per day on social media sites, breaking past the Top 100 Electronic benchmark along the way.
The instrumental version of the track has recently been picked up as the backing music to the UK commercial for the TV show Revenge, driving the fan activity even higher in the last month.
The Musicmetric Pro screenshot below shows the rapid growth since March 5th, when the commercial first aired. The purple line shows the average number of new fans per day (benchmark) a typical Electronic Top 100 artist gets:
The next chart shows that at his peak, he gained over 300 new fans in a single hour!
Zooming out to look at a longer term week on week trend the growth is really visible. 21,000 new fans in a single week:

Georgia takes bite out of cargo crime
Sunday, August 17, 2014
On Second Thought with John Tabor April 15 marked an important date in the secure movement of freight around the U.S. Southeast, yet few if anyone in the industry knows what changed on this historic date. On that day, Gov. Nathan Deal of Georgia signed the Georgia Cargo Theft Act into law, which took effect July 1. The law specifies punishments based on the value of stolen freight. It also includes penalties for tampering with the trucks used to move that freight. What's the big deal you ma...
U.S. agencies to test integrated trusted shipper program
Sunday, July 13, 2014
U.S. Customs and Border Protection in June said it plans to test a holistic trusted trader program similar to the World Customs Organization's Authorized Economic Operator model that combines security and trade compliance certification.

CBP's Winkowski heads up ICE
Sunday, June 08, 2014
Thomas Winkowski is now in charge of his second Department of Homeland Security agency in less than three months. In March, the Customs and Border Protection deputy commissioner was appointed by DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson as principle deputy assistant secretary for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. He's the top guy, but requires a convoluted title so as not to limit how long he can stay in the job. John Morton left as ICE director in July 2013. His responsibi...

Under the program, Customs an...
ISF enforcement strategy
Sunday, June 08, 2014
U.S. Customs and Border Protection has implemented a revised enforcement strategy for the Importer Security Filing which provides for local discretion at the port level based on infrastructure and staffing resources. The agency says the strategy provides a more standardized approach which will permit headquarters to better analyze non-compliant ISF filings and educate violators. Last summer, the use of liquidated damages to enforce compliance with ISF went into effect. CBP may i...

Forwarding industry lays out expectations for ACAS rulemaking
Wednesday, June 04, 2014
The U.S. Transportation Security Administration and Customs and Border Protection should resolve lingering issues resulting from an ongoing demonstration program for collecting advance shipment data to guide selective pre-departure inspections of U.S.-bound cargo before publishing a rulemaking requiring the electronic security filing, four trade associations representing freight forwarders said in separate letters to agency chiefs on Monday. Customs officials have completed a dr...
Washington Notebook: Industry tries to drive stake through scan-all law
Tuesday, June 03, 2014
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson last month formally notified Congress that his department will exercise its right to extend for another two years the deadline to scan all inbound ocean containers for nuclear weapons or other terror-related contraband at foreign ports, and business groups are now rising up to kill the mandate altogether. The moves come as some lawmakers seek to revive a law that was left for dead because most House and Senate members, realizing their vote...

Struggles in Latin America's ports
Sunday, May 11, 2014
While not the sole cause, lack of adequate infrastructure to keep up with the rapid growth in container traffic in Latin America is one of the contributing factors to corruption at some of the region's ports, said Thomaz Favaro, an analyst at the consulting firm Control Risks and co-author with Niels Lindholm of a study released last December, Stuck in the bottleneck: Corruption in Latin America Ports . Some customs officials in the region use delays at ports "to sell a fast tra...

China lifts ban on Va. poultry imports
Tuesday, May 06, 2014
Chinese authorities have rescinded a 6.5-year import suspension of poultry from Virginia, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Gov. Terry McAuliffe's office. China imposed the ban because of what it said were concerns of low pathogenic avian flu following an isolated case reported at a single farm in Virginia. State officials said the ban was not justified by scientific data. Medical experts do not consider low-pathogenic bird flu strains a threat to human he...

North American Trade Symposium
Sunday, March 02, 2014

SFI déjà vu
Sunday, March 02, 2014
I thought the Secure Freight Initiative had faded into the past. Apparently not. At the annual Trade Symposium in Washington on March 6-7, U.S. Customs and Border Protection personnel in the exhibit area were handing out brochures about SFI. SFI was a limited-run pilot last decade that was designed to test whether 100 percent inspection of inbound containers could be done at foreign ports. It essentially was a tactic to forestall Congress from forcing CBP to go ahead with implem...

At its heart, the changeover is much more than a technological upgrade; it's...
Righting routed exports
Sunday, March 02, 2014
BIS wants to clearly define responsibilities for these transactions. Navigating U.S. export control regulations has always been a tricky task and it's not uncommon for exporters and their freight forwarders to get tripped up over regulatory language alone.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection on Monday expanded the ACE Cargo Release Pilot program to 14 more airports three weeks after expanding the program beyond the air mode to ocean and rail.

Wednesday, November 06, 2013
Pilots flying for U.S. airlines will have to undergo more training designed to prevent catastrophic crashes under a new rule issued Tuesday by the Federal Aviation Administration.

The Java Junkie's Dream
Rejoice! Your morning cup of joe is healthy. Experts on an American Society for Nutrition panel recently concluded that drinking three to five 8-ounce cups a day lowers your risk of type 2 diabetes, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, and colon and liver cancers. "Among other things, the antioxidants in coffee protect your cells and DNA from damage," Bowden says. "Coffee seems to increase antioxidants in the blood, too."
Shopping shortcut: Go easy on the Starbucks: One 16-ounce grande counts as two servings. Make it even healthier: Too much caffeine can wreak havoc on your sleep, so opt for decaf. It's still loaded with antioxidants.
Bonus benefits: Women who drink at least six cups a day are less likely to develop high blood pressure, revealed a 2005 study by Harvard scientists.

The chicken came out delicious; moist and sweet/tangy, but I have a few comments. First, I agree with volatilisanguis that one needs to prepare preserved lemons well ahead of time (or have them on hand) and that preparation time is significant. Also, when baked at 375 degrees, the skin on my chicken turned extremely dark (due to the honey??) and I needed to turn the temperature down to about 345. It made no difference in flavor, only the appearance. I didn't strain the gravy much; my family likes the cooked onions. I served it with baked potatoes and steamed broccoli.It's a unique chicken dish and I'll make it again.
French Honey-Baked Chicken with Preserved Lemons
Cooking with honey is common in France, especially in the region of Provence, where pickled lemons akin to our Preserved Lemons show up in some recipes. Using bone-in chicken and leaving the skin on during cooking yields succulent results.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 breast or 1 thigh and 1 drumstick and 1/4 cup gravy)

Chocolate Covered Hobnail Cake
There is something about baking that just makes my heart leap. Sure, baking is fun. Buying kitchen gadgets is addictive, buying spices and ingredients...even more so. But there is something about it- beyond the obvious. The blending of all the flavors. The chemical reactions that occur. Do you ever stop to think, "Who decided to put all of these ingredients together in one bowl hoping something delicious would come from it?" My dad would say, "Well, that's kind of like saying, 'Who walked up to the cow and said, "I think I will pull on this utter and drink whatever comes out of it."'"
Creating sweet, fluffy, flaky memories for friends and family. Food is such a happy memory for me. Rolling biscuits out with my grandmother and great grandmother. The sizzle of the cornbread batter as it hit the hot cast iron skillet in my mother's kitchen. So many wonderful times were surrounded with aromas of wonderful food.
One of the best parts of baking for me, is baking for others. It is especially wonderful when it comes as a surprise. The lit up smile covered face that truly appreciates that you made the cake just for them with your hands and with your heart. Maybe I am a little too sentimental about baking, but I do put my all in it. If I bake you a cake, it is just as special to me as a gift wrapped in pretty paper and tied with a bow.
This weekend we were invited to a Memorial Weekend BBQ at Derrick's board president's house. I volunteered to bring potato salad and secretly brought a cake too. Everyone loves chocolate so I picked a recipe from the Gooseberry Patch Sweet and Simple baking book that my wonderful Aunt Andi sent me for Valentine's day. I had a ton of the marshmallow icing left over from the Cupcake Hero cupcakes that needed to be used before it failed and a pint of sweet, fresh strawberries. The cake turned out perfectly! I made 2 layers and filled it with marshmallow icing and sliced strawberries. I covered it with marshmallow icing, used my round tip to create a hobnail look and drizzled it with chocolate. The finishing touch was chocolate covered strawberries.
We walked into the party holding our dish full of potato salad and the surprise cake. Our hosts' eyes smiled. That's my favorite part. The reaction was almost overwhelming. "Which bakery did you get your cake from? It's beautiful." One guest asked if I made wedding cakes. I was so very flattered. Derrick gave it two thumbs up as he crushed his piece and started in after mine. I will be trying more recipes from this sweet little book soon.
Chocolate Cake
Ingredients: adapted from Jennifer Licon-Conner's Double Trouble Recipe from Gooseberry Patch
1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup sour cream
4 1-oz. sqs. unsweetened baking chocolate, melted
1 cup buttermilk
Preheat oven to 350.
Prepare two 9 inch round or square baking pans.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter until light and fluffy.
Add sugars and mix well.
Add eggs, one at a time, blending well after each one.
Add vanilla.
Blend in the sour cream and mix for 30 seconds.
Add the melted chocolate and mix well until combined.
Add flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk until all ingredients are incorporated.
Pour ingredients into baking pans.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cake passes the toothpick test.
Let cakes cool and then top with favorite icing.
For icing, see the marshmallow ingredients from May's cupcake hero post.
For chocolate topping heat 2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips and 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a double broiler until smooth. Pour over iced cake or drizzle. Refrigerate 30 minutes to set.
I also used this to chocolate coat the strawberries.

Mystery Missile footage analyzed + Michio Kaku
- Aburgtv
- uploaded: Nov 16, 2010
- Hits: 4
This is the footage KCBS released to the other media outlets to use. Of course most of them went to YouTube for their own footage, but I find it odd that they cut out some shots and moved the frames around.
I put them back in the original order and noted the progression.
All the news outlets are concentrating on the object creating the trail and none on the trail itself. If this is a rocket fume plume, will it do us harm that thick and that close to the shore?
If it's jet exhaust, how does it grow and spread when it should be thinning out as the temperature differential equalizes?
Why is the "jet" heading toward the West and the Sun if it's landing in Arizona or Utah like some have claimed?
we may never know..........

What an absolute crock! Is every body on Drugs?! Okay, Let us suppose that the whole world is High and I may as well join in as well and we all agree that this was an airplane, agreed? My next question is, 'Is the whole world stuck on Stupid?! Why did this single airplane look so differently? Ya think, maybe the guy in the Helicopter has ever seen a plane taking off, landing or just flying by?Where is this mysterious plane now? Didn't the friggin' thing land some place? Was it checked for abnormalities? If it were a missile, where the Hell did it land? I use to think that this guy, Michio Kaku was credible but he is just another cog in an ever expanding corrupt wheel.

text: E A S Y A C C E S S O R I Z I N G ! Dressing up comfort, isn't always easy. But with the right outfit-tools, you'll be set! Sometimes we're not sure as to how we would finish our look after putting on a pair of comfy trousers and (in my case) a cropped top. I say, if you're bad at pairing colors - go for gold! or silver of course. Started by choosing a belt that fitted my trousers best, then matched the rest of my accessories to the color of my belt - It's a suggestion if you're one that's confused on how to decide on a color scheme for accessories. Finish your comfy, chic look with the right combination of accessories & have yourselves a great week ahead. love & kisses xRT

Spice Is Nice
"There is not enough Gewurztraminer in the world."
...Connoisseurs Guide to California Wine
The Early Years—The grape is one of the oldest identifiable species in the wine world. Roman soldiers marching across the Alps 2,000 years ago, discovered the wine and its vine in the village of Tramin in South Tyrol. They appropriated as much as they could transport to Rome, where it became immediately the court wine of the Caesars. Traveling west, the Roman legions took it to Alsace. (R. L. Balzer)
January 1862—Col. Agoston Harazthy brings the first Gewurztraminer vines to California.
1887—The noblest wine I have seen in this State of California is made from the Traminer grape. (Prof. George Hussman)
1940—Traminer is capable of producing excellent wine in California, though there is pitifully little of it. (Author Frank Schoonmaker)
1976—When well made, Gewurztraminer is full of flavor, spicy in quality with a strong perfume...delightful, yet there is not a lot of it on the market. (Critic Henry Rubin, S.F. Chronicle)
1990 - Acreage of the vine has fallen to 1,840, compared to the 1984 figure of 4,110. 1998—Kendall-Jackson is among those leading the charge to increase the standing of this highly-respected, under-produced varietal. My tasters sampled the 1996 and rated it VERY GOOD. I checked back 18 months and no other Gewurz has scored this well.
1996 Vintner's Reserve Gewurztraminer, California
There are three principal forms of the Traminer grape, white, blue and pink. Only the pink has the spicy character, and only it is called GEWURZ("spice" in German).. TRAMINER.
Note—For more about the Kendall-Jackson juggernaut, see the June 23, 1998 WineDay, titled " Gangway for this Chardonnay."

Live stream your day's activities straight to your Facebook wall with the Looxcie HD camera.
Despite some picture quality, lag, and compatibility issues, Veebeam HD puts laptop-based streaming video onto TV screens more conveniently than ever.
The SuperTooth HD's hardware is good, but its Handsfree Assistant social network, text messaging, and e-mail integration service is both its claim to fame and its Achilles' heel.
While it's not compatible with your cable company's interactive and video-on-demand services, the TiVo HD's excellent onscreen interface and long list of network and Internet features puts it in a class above the generic high-def DVRs offered by most cable providers.
If you're a DirecTV viewer who just can't live without the TiVo interface and can settle for its operational caveats, the aging DirecTV HR10-250 HD TiVo is a worthwhile DVR option.

The Toshiba HD-XA1 is the more expensive model of the company's initial pair of HD-DVD players.
The Samsung SmartCam HD Pro is a very good IP camera, but Dropcam Pro still has it beat in terms of durability, app design, and overall video quality.
Samsung is adding two Wi-Fi IP cameras to its home security portfolio.
If you can get past the clunky design, the Kobo Arc 10 HD offers a unique tablet experience for avid readers.
Despite the lack of information about several elements of the game, Stay Alight is pretty fun, with good-looking graphics, good audio, and realistic physics. With a little more info about the story and description of game elements, this could be very good game.
