CORK, Ireland and NEW YORK, September 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Company opens new office in New York On The Back Of Successful IBC launch
Digisoft.tv, a global provider of HTML5 set-top box (STB) software introduced its new Virtual STB today. A pure software product which brings all the services of a hybrid set-top box to connected TVs, the Virtual STB is set to revolutionise the smart TV market by instantly removing all the CAPEX costs traditionally associated with the technology.
Meanwhile Irdeto have announced its Multi-device product set is to include Digisoft's Iris HTML5 middleware, Digisoft will also make the virtual STB available as part of Irdeto's multi device strategy.
"This is a logical extension of our Hybrid STB," said Fearghal Kelly CEO of Digisoft. "It's an app that gives you all the functionality of a physical STB without the CAPEX costs, it's easy to update, and delivers multi-room efficacy with a network PVR. We believe that the virtual STB should be part of any IPTV strategy."
Currently 15% of homes with cable coverage have a Smart TV and the figure is expected to reach more than 25% by 2016. Given this trend, Digisoft believes it's right to focus on commercially adept Smart TV manufacturers who have endorsed HTML5 and CE-HTML as open development standards.
"We have a comprehensive product," says Fearghal, "our offering includes a VOD client for TV and movies, Network PVR and an EPG for encrypted Pay TV Channels with inbuilt flexibility that allows it to merge with local off air digital TV signals."
"It's not an either-or scenario, we will still be pushing ahead with our innovative Dongle STB software on our new cost-effective consumer platform aimed at carriers, retailers and other multidevice applications. However, this is an area of the market that has come of age and simply cannot be ignored."
A fast growing company, Digisoft released its Dongle STB in partnership with Dune earlier this year and aims to be the most innovative middleware supplier in the EE (Entertainment, Education) Market. Its primary focus will continue to be cost reduction - removing the need for fault prone local hard disc drives - and monetization through recommendation, analytics and subscriber management. The company is expanding rapidly opening a regional office in New York this month.

I've seen people from other countries already knowing when the movie's gonna shown, and nothing about Canada.
Cineplex doesn't know anything at this time, they haven't been aware of the pre-sale on Sept. 27th.
How do you know (other countries) where the movie's gonna be shown?
I'll call back cineplex on Friday to see if they have news about it, but for now, we know nothing and it pisses me a bit...
on the Sony canada site, they say the presale will be on Sept 27th and the places will be known at this time... but cineplex odeon doesn't even know about that... They still don't know how many copies Canada will have...!!!

Race Organizer Comments The "Biggest Little Marathon in the West" David A Hill, CFE, CFS (12/26/12) The 35th annual Kaiser Permanente Napa Valley Marathon boasts one of the most beautiful courses in the world. The course runs the length of the famed Napa Valley wine-growing region. It begins in Calistoga, famous for its geysers and curative waters, and winds south along the historic Silverado Trail to finish at Vintage High School in north Napa. Except for the last half-mile, the entire course is rural. Runners are treated to panoramic views of the valley, flowering fruit trees, and dormant vineyards carpeted with golden mustard flowers.

The marathon was extremely well run and organized. The course was beautiful and the weather perfect. The only issue I had was the ban on headphones. The marathon site claimed that any runner wearing headphones would be disqualified. I saw 50-100 runners wearing headphones, and course officials clearly saw the runners wearing headphones, yet nothing was done. The ban on headphones is stupid and if the Napa Marathon is going to continue the ban, at least enforce it. I have run over twenty marathons and I wish I would also have ignored the ban like so many of my fellow runners.
I live local to Napa and have run it before and been on the course supporting friends many times. The course is second to none for spectacular scenery, and as many have and will note is on the Silverado Trail (a road), which winds through the foothills of the Napa Valley from Calistoga to Napa. Even though it is net downhill you will have a number of rolling hills. Running tangents to keep the course to the minimum length is incredibly important if you don't want to add 10ths to the distance. Although at times this forces you to run on parts of the road that have a decent camber to it. After 20 it is downhill/flat to the finish. This race is about scenery not screaming crowds, although at every intersection with the course there are plenty of folks on the side supporting you. My favorite moment is just past the 23 mile mark when you pass a B&B and they were handing out sorbet which on this day was more than welcome as it was warm AND they had a string quartet playing - a moment of peace when you really needed it! Finisher's medal was great, post race had food, showers (cold water!), and massages at the high school. Put this one on your bucket list!
This was my 16th marathon and meant to be a PR. The course is very twisty; if you're trying to qualify for Boston and it might be down to the wire, I would recommend running a slightly faster pace throughout, because running the tangents on a course like this is almost impossible, and you will run extra distance because of that. (I use the metric system, and when I finished my Garmin said 42.45 km even though I tried very hard to run the tangents.) The course is very hilly. Not only is the elevation profile deceptive, but throughout the race expo the organizers kept saying there were 'rolling hills'. Many of the hills were rolling, but some of the hills were much too long to be 'rolling'. If you're trying for a BQ, do a lot of hill training. And then when you're done, go out and do some more hills. The course itself is second to none in terms of scenery, in fact at times during the race it didn't even look real because it was so spectacular. The organization is excellent, and I took advantage of the special water bottle option by taping my gels to my water bottles so that I wouldn't have to carry my gels during the race. This was a huge perk for me. I gave the spectators 5 stars because even though there weren't many of them, they were AMAZING. They were providing music during the race, and giving out fruit and even homemade sorbet!! I was able to BQ but not PR. In any case, this is truly a 5-star marathon, and a must do for any marathoner.
So this was my first marathon. As the other reviews have mentioned that it's a lot hillier than expected. I'd like to my total agreement with that. If planning for this marathon use any nearby hills, trust me you'll thank me later. Pros: Pasta Feed. Awesome pasta feed. Kind of set myself up with high expectations for my next marathon which kind of was of a disappointment. But theirs is totally awesome. Free stuff is given away (I got a free jacket from last year's Victoria Marathon, the lady who works for them came up afterward, gave me her card and offered to pay my fee if I were to enter). Big name speakers. And the food is great. Definably pay for it if going, won't regret it. The Free stuff in general is awesome. Between the tech shirt, the bag, and the awesome medal it's worth it for the free stuff. The best part about the bags are is they give you a tag with your bib number and you use that as your bag to check in at the start of the race. Persistent Trailing bus. No really. The guy this year kept with the back of the pack. Checked to make sure no one needed a ride, the usual, good to see though. Shuttle buses to start. If not staying in the city it starts in (which most people aren't due to the expo and host hotel being in Napa), this is really nice. You have to get up early, really early to catch them though. But you get to sit in them up until twenty minutes until the race. And you hand over a fore mentioned bag to one of the loaders who puts it in the bus. Oh and the spectators got a low rating because of the lack of them. This is a pretty rural road race so you see them pretty much at the aid stations and that's this. So you don't get much spectator support. I will give them credit they were nice and supportive, their just isn't much of them especially for slower people. While I don't like the way the course is described by it's organizers as far as elevation change (see below) I do like it overall. It's a beautiful course. And if you are a runner used to using headphones (it's banned here) you'll find yourself too distracted by the beauty to mind the lack of music going through your ears. I should know I'm one of those people who normally listens to music. The lack of it didn't bother it one bit. Due not let the no headphones rule deter you people. Cons: The race organizers tendency to play down the hills. They gave me the impression that the hill would have pretty much one major hill. This was far from the truth and more than once I thought 'If this is their definition of flat is I don't want to know what their definition of hilly is.' If I had known this at the time I probably would have picked a different marathon and done Napa in another year. This is due to the fact that I was stuck in a town outside of Fresno CA for all of my training except for a two week period. And anyone who knows Fresno or has run their marathon can tell you it's flat as a pancake. So I couldn't get the proper hill training in that I would have needed to run Napa. Lack of spectators. I give credit to the ones that were there (see above) but I wish there was more of them. Lack of refreshments the further back you are. They tend to not pack enough refreshments in the aid stations by the time I got through them most were running out or low on certain things. This is one race I recommend purchasing a runners belt for and filling it with various drinks and gels in preparation for the race. Overall it was a fairly good first marathon. I enjoyed it and only had a few complaints. I just wish the organizers were a little more accurate when describing the hilliness of the race.
The was my first attempt at Napa Marathon course. Some people complain about the uphills, but I had no trouble with them. My own concern was actually how much "downhill" there was. I actually looked forward to the occasional uphill to give my legs a break from all the downhill. The organization is top-notch, and the goodies and finisher medal were superior to many more expensive races. Despite the rain, there were good sizes of crowds at many of the intersections, although I assume that probably changed with those further back. This is a course where it definitely pays to run the tangents, especially with the banked turns. If you just ran near the middle of the road the whole way, your GPS distance would have been a lot more than 26.2 miles. One thing I was most impressed with was the individual volunteer that walked me all the way through the finish chute. I assumed it was just because there weren't many finishers around me, but I've heard from others they did this pretty much the whole time. I definitely plan on adding this race to my list for 2012.
This is a greatly organized race. The expo is not big but is run well. I stayed at the Napa Valley Marriott where the expo took place, so it was very convenient. I also ate there the night before at the pasta party dinner, which at $30 was overpriced for what you got (although there was free booze, but who wants to drink the night before a marathon?). They had buses leaving from the hotel to the start, which was also nice - no need to go to the high school. Also, since it was raining, they allowed us to stay in the buses as long as we wanted. The course had more hills and inclines than I expected. Granted, I ran a 4-minute PR and BQ'ed on that course, but I thought that the elevation profile from the website was slightly deceptive, with more rolling hills and inclines than I expected. It rained during the first half, and there was a headwind on the second half, which made the race more difficult. However, once you reach mile 20, the course is very easy - half-a-mile downhill and then pancake flat. I must say that I did not really focus on the scenery as I was focused on running my BQ time - all I saw were vineyards once in a while, but I did not take advantage of the scenic aspect of the course. One great thing about the race: you can place your own water bottles or special drinks on boxes at the start, and they will put them at the water stations. This was very convenient and allowed me to drink from my bottles with sports cap instead of the paper cups, and I did not need to walk at the stations. The finish area is good except that if you need to reunite quickly with your family, it might take a while since the finish area is fenced. Beautiful medal; long-sleeve technical shirt was OK; nice bag (I chose the backpack). A few negatives: - Not enough porta-potties at the start. I hit them at around 6:15, and by the time I got out, the lines were way longer and some people missed the start because of that. - The road is heavily banked especially in the first half of the course. This is potentially a major issue for people with hip/IT band problems. - Pasta party at the Napa Valley Marriott is overpriced. Overall, I liked that race but would prefer a flatter one for PR attempts. Also, if you need a lot of crowd support, some sections had no spectators at all.
Even though it rained on race day, this was one of my favorite marathons (my 9th overall). Beautiful course; nice rolling downhill; very well supported; nice duffel bag (which came in handy when I needed an extra bag to carry home since all the wine filled up my suitcase, haha); beautiful medal; and a PR finish! I would definitely run this one again.
Such a class act. GREAT swag, great course, nice post-race spread, and the perfect size for a marathon. The course is beautiful, though on a very slanted road, which is challenging. Everything runs smoothly. The swag is crazy (a choice of three types of gym bags?? Stuffed with products??). I've done it twice, and been impressed both times!
Even with the rain, it was fantastic! Not very many spectators, until the end, but those who were there were great. The race personnel were fantastic! At the end, there was one person who walked you from the finish line, through all of the final stations (where you got your blanket, your medal, and your picture), and he stayed with you, constantly asking if you were okay, and if you needed anything. It was great. Wonderful experience. Will do it again next year for sure.
This year's NVM had light rain for the first couple of hours. That made it a little warmer at the start than in previous years, but kept it cooler along the course. The scenery was enhanced by the fog and clouds weaving through the hills. Once again the organization was good; being walked through the finish by a volunteer was nice.

Welcome to The Deep science and technology column where we cover topics from the deep sea to deep space and beyond.
Greetings everyone! Well, the animal file is beginning to bulge and we've got several stories of animals both living and dead in strange and unexpected places.
When most of us think about animal research, we think about it happening in far-distant and inhospitable places like jungles. When most of us think about animal fossils, we get the same mental pictures, but this time, it's wind-blown deserts that spring to mind. We don't associate either endeavor with big cities.
But that certainly doesn't include one of the world's richest fossil fields; smack in the middle of one of the world's biggest cities; Los Angeles California. In addition to being famous for movies stars and huge brush fires and earthquakes, the city of angels is also home to the La Brea Tar Pits.
The Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits, has recently made a discovery so huge it could potentially rewrite the scientific account of the La Brea Tar Pits and their surrounding area—one of the richest sources of information about life in the last Ice Age.
The La Brea Tar Pits are located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. (If Los Angeles can be said to have a 'downtown'. Dorothy Parker once said that Los Angeles was 72 suburbs in search of a city.) I've been there and it's an astounding place; a park surrounded by tall buildings.
The new project has uncovered over 700 specimens including a large pre-historic American Lion skull, lion bones, dire wolves, saber-toothed cats, juvenile horse and bison, teratorns (a huge fossil bird), coyotes, lynx, and ground sloths. The most exciting find is a well-preserved male Columbian mammoth fossil, about 80% complete, with 10-feet long intact tusks. This is the first complete individual mammoth to be found in Rancho La Brea. The paleontologists at the Page Museum have nicknamed the mammoth "Zed."
The Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits is famous for one of the world's largest and most diverse collections of Late Pleistocene fossils—objects so important that the last 300,000 years of the Pleistocene is known to scientists as the Rancholabrean Land Mammal Age. Paleontologists at the Page Museum now estimate that the new research project (called Project 23) could increase the collection by three to four million specimens.
So, where did this astounding raft of discoveries come from? Well, when the Los Angeles County Museum of Art began construction of some new buildings they discovered some interesting things. They were so interesting that under the guidance of Page Museum scientists, 23 enormous intact blocks were lifted out of the ground. They were encased in wooden boxes that ranged in size from 5×5x5 feet (weighing 3 tons) to 12×15x10 feet (weighing 56 tons). Project 23: gets its name from the reference to the number of extracted crates—with each box bearing its own number (1-23).
Rather than beginning at ground level and digging into the asphalt ooze or "tar pits" to expose trapped specimens as they've done for the last century, Page Museum paleontologists will begin their Project 23 excavations at the top of each block. In addition to the many mammal fossils, the researchers have also discovered turtles, snails, mollusks, lots of tree trunks and complete insect and leaf mats, all of which are expected to provide important environmental data.

Just goes to show you that there could be anything lurking beneath your feet. Although we don't have traditional fossils here on Guam (no dinosaurs: Guam didn't come out of the water until millions of years after they were gone (maybe, more on that later!) you can certainly make the argument that all of northern Guam is, in fact, one gigantic fossil because northern Guam is all the remnants of massive coral reefs.
You expect coral reefs here, we are in the tropics and that's where all the corals live? Right? Well, apparently not. Read on!
In a stunning new discovery, researchers from the University of Galway have recently confirmed the existence of a major new coral reef on the southern end of the Porcupine Bank off the west coast of . . . (wait for it!) . . Ireland. The surveyed area is about 80 square miles and contains at least 40 carbonate mounds covered with coral. These underwater hills rise as high as 300 feet above the seafloor.
Now in case your geography is a little rusty, Ireland lies at 53 degrees north, which is a serious distance beyond the 20 degrees north to 20 degrees south span that's called the 'tropics'.
The deep-water expedition took place aboard the research vessel, the RV Celtic Explorer. The scientists used the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Holland I to survey the seafloor and capture unique video footage.
One of the researchers, Dr Anthony Grehan said: "These are by far the most pristine, thriving and hence spectacular examples of cold-water coral reefs that I've encountered in almost ten years of study in Irish waters.
The expedition began in French waters with a series of ROV dives in previously unexplored canyons in the Bay of Biscay which confirmed the presence of coral reefs in that location in the Atlantic. When the ship moved into Irish waters the researchers used high resolution bathymetry charts, provided by the Irish National Seabed Survey to identify new areas likely to support coral reefs. The Holland I was then used to dive on one of these areas, the Archipelagos Mounds (or Arc Mounds), where it revealed a seascape of spectacular coral reefs.
Dr Grehan also noted that vulnerable marine ecosystems such as coral reefs represent one of the last untapped reservoirs of potentially useful bio-compounds that might support the development of new anti-viral or anti-bacterial pharmaceuticals.

And whoda thunk they'd have found one of these untapped reservoirs off the coast of Ireland??
So, I said earlier, Guam came up out of the water millions of years after the dinosaurs were all gone. That's probably still true but there's increasing evidence that perhaps the dinosaurs weren't all gone exactly when we thought they were!
The Lost World, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's account of an isolated community of dinosaurs that survived the catastrophic extinction event 65 million years ago, is still as appealing now as it was when it was written a century ago. Various Hollywood versions have tried to recreate the lost world of dinosaurs, but today the fiction seems just a little closer to reality.
New scientific evidence suggests that dinosaur bones found in the Ojo Alamo Sandstone in the San Juan Basin date from after the extinction, and that din
osaurs may have survived in a remote area of what is now New Mexico and Colorado for up to half a million years after their counterparts disappeared. This controversial new research is based on detailed chemical investigations of the dinosaur bones, and evidence for the age of the rocks in which they are found.
"The great difficulty with this hypothesis — that these are the remains of dinosaurs that survived — is ruling out the possibility that the bones date from before the extinction," says Jim Fassett, author of the research.
It is possible for fossilized bones to be excavated by rivers and then incorporated into younger rocks. That's not the usual way fossil deposits form, but it's been shown to explain some other 'post-extinction' dinosaur bones. However, Fassett has amassed evidence that indicates these fossils from the Ojo Alamo Sandstone were not excavated and redeposited and that these dinosaurs really did live after the Cretaceous extinction event.
To amass this evidence you must first demonstrate the rocks containing the bones are younger than the extinction event. Fassett has analyzed the magnetic polarity of the rocks, and the pollen grains they contain, different approaches to dating rocks from which he concludes that both indicate the rocks are younger than the extinction.
Fassett also found that the dinosaur bones from the Ojo Alamo Sandstone have distinctly different concentrations of rare earth metal elements than bones found in the underlying Cretaceous rocks. He argues that these concentration differences make it unlikely that the post-extinction bones were exhumed from the underlying sediments. This is also supported by a find of 34 hadrosaur bones. Although they weren't an articulated skeleton, they are doubtless from a single animal. Fassett maintains that if the bones had been exhumed by a river, they would have been scattered.
So does this provide proof that dinosaurs survived the Cretaceous extinctions? Finding conclusive evidence is a difficult matter when the crime scene is 65 million years old. One thing is certain, if dinosaurs did survive, they weren't as widespread as they were before the end of the Cretaceous and they didn't persist for long. The 'Lost World scenario' of humans and dinosaurs existing at the same time (or dinosaurs on Guam) still belongs firmly in the realms of pure fantasy.

Realfood Organics Liquid Cran-Aloe is a unique formulation using ACTIValoe.

The Qmatrix process is a patented Low Temperature Short Time (LTST) drying process that retains heat-sensitive nutritional and functional Aloe Vera natural components such as the important mono- and polysaccharides. Highly purified Qmatrix ACTIValoe does not contain the high levels of undesirable components, such as aloin, that are often associated with diarrhea.
More clinical research has been published on this 100% inner fillet Aloe Vera than any other form of Aloe Vera on the market. Every ounce of Realfood Organics Liquid Aloe Vera delivers 15mg of naturally occurring polysaccharides.

CHI Silk Infusion
Join the Conversation
Lisa O.Did The Color Change?I love this product. I have course and thick hair and it really helps to control it. However, I recently bought a bottle from my hair salon and it seems different. The color is clear and not yellow like it normally is. Did the formula change? It almost looks like Biosilk which I have also used but don't like as much. Thanks.Reply to this postFeb 15, 2013Link to this post
LindaNJChanges To ChiI thought I bought a bootleg version. The color has changed and it does not work like the old formula. I will no longer be using it.Oct 6, 2013Link to this post
Heather P.MIColor ChangeI was wondering the same thing and can't seem to find any answers:(Mar 16, 2013Link to this post
Dana P.United StatesGreat Product. Review+tipThis product is AMAZING. My hair is pretty normal, not too greasy and not dry either. It's thick and my natural color is Medium Brown. I personally.. LOVE the smell.. It smells like Guys Hollister Cologne.. BUT once you put the product in your hair.. it DOES change scents I've noticed.. It smells a lot more natural and Summery. There is one tip/ quick thing I want to tell you because It's a mistake I made... When you go to flip the bottle upside down because you want product it comes out FAST. and SOO much gets on your hand and it personally made me feel like I was wasting product.. soo be careful... even when you are careful, one little squirt will give you a nickel size.. just a warning. The bright side, It makes your hair super soft, and My hair is already thick.. but although you thick-haired people probably know that thick hair can easily lead to frizziness. and This product tames that frizziness.. soo I can embrace my thick hair and it still looks tame :) It doesn't weight my hair down then.Reply to this postJun 5, 2012Link to this post
Joyce W.Winchester IL.Chi For Both Skin & HairI have a small bottle & it stats on it that it can be used on skin & hair, I have been using it on my face & hair both & love the way it feels, but have not been able to find any that says for both skin & hair, any one know where I can find it.Oct 19, 2012Link to this post

Josephine T.United StatesHeat ProtectantDo I need another heat protecting spray when blow drying and flat ironing my hair in addition to the silk infusion? It does not say anywhere it the description that it protects against heat, but many of the reviews says it does. I do not want to weigh my hair down with too many products but I do not want to damage my hair too since its already quite dry.Reply to this postNov 3, 2011Link to this post
Dana P.United StatesHeat Protectant Use.It would probably just be safe to use a heat protectant with this product. While this does soo much already... Smoothes out hair, makes it soft, thicker, shiny... it is/ and does feel extremely oily... therefore the heat device would only suck it up and brittle your hair. Soo to be safe you should probably use one. I've learned from experience. :)Jun 5, 2012Link to this post
Shannon J.Greenville, AlabamaHelppppppp With How And What Order To Use Chi Products On My Disastrous Hair.....I am suffering from severe hair damage due to over processing with chemicals. My hair is breaking litterally every time I brush it. I have invested in the Chi silk infusion, the Chi Keratin leave-in treatment and the Chi Iron Guard. Not sure if I should use all 3, and if so in what order? Also, any further advice you can give me would be great :))Reply to this postSep 30, 2011Link to this post
TeriHelpppppI would suggest that you start using a really good moisturizer, I use the Triple Moisture leave in conditioner by Neutrogena and I also use the Triple Moisture conditioner but if I use them both on the same day my hair gets pretty puffy. If you use the silk infusion and the Keratin leave in spray you will probably break your hair off even more. You must, as I have found through trial and error, moisture is your best friend if you have dry over processed hair like I have. Use the leave in moisture cream and then add in the protein. Too much protein will break your off really bad. The Silk Infusion has protein in it so if you are using it and the Keratin, you should probably stop one of them. Hope this helps!!May 7, 2012Link to this post

Pineda De Mar
Pineda de mar:
Pineda de mar is a traditional seaside resort that has been popular with Spanish tourists for decades.The Town itself dates back to the 15th century. A lowrise and relaxing place it never gets overcrowded. The beaches likewise are spacious and not too commercial. There are better opportunities for nightclubbers in neighbouring resorts and Pineda de Mar is essentially a family resort. The town itself is pleasantly illuminated at night and the local restaurants are excellent with the Spanish specialty restaurants being particularly good. The clear waters in the sea are good for scuba diving. Not a place for 18-30s but a good relaxing family resort.

First Gear Heated Rider Leather Gloves Reviews:
Comment: Got these a couple weeks ago. I was impressed by how quickly they warm. And in 35-40 degree weather at 50-70mph, they kept my fingers from freezing. The back of the hand got a little too hot after slowing to 20-30 mph, required dialing down the controller. But what a great feeling to arrive to work after 45-60 minutes of riding, and BEING ABLE TO USE MY HANDS RIGHT AWAY!!!
Comment: For those who ride in cold weather a lot, this is a must. What a big relief! I recommend buying one size larger.
Comment: Why didn't I order these the first winter I had my bike? Along with the jacket and the First Gear Heat Troller, I am toasty warm. Can't wait to see how low the temperature goes before it's finally too cold to ride!
Tom Johnson
At my desk in Hollister, MO
Comment: My first pair of heated gloves and I got a great deal. They are warm and connect to a heated jacket easiy. They run true to size.
Hickory, NC
Comment: Got these with the jacket, they really make riding in the cold much easier, much more pleasant.
Pacific NW
Comment: Once again awesome. A little hard to get used to the thickness, I keep blowing my horn when trying to use my blinkers. I finally got used to it. Again, hands never got cold!!!!
Bill carter

Comment: I purchased the heated gloves along with the Y-harness and troller for my dad for Christmas. He's already used them and has absolutely no complaints. They fit true-to-size and seem to be top-quality.
Comment: Great product.They work really good
Carey Torno

Comment: It's worth getting everything, I got the First Gear Heat Gloves, First Gear Heated Pant Liner, First Gear Heated 90 Watt Jacket Liner, Fist Gear Heated Socks and a Dual Remote Control Heat Troller Kit. Pricy but very comfortable. So Far I drove in 37 degree weather and windy. Well worth the investment.

More from the "Philly Corner"
Link: ESPN.com: Page 2 – Dying for Sunday.
The ultimate comes from Pete L. in Conshohocken, Pa., who sees the game as nothing short of a clash of cultures. Excepting what he sees as real passion in Southie, Pete writes off Boston as a bastion of the effette. He writes to a Pats fan named Gabe from last week's column, a note that derided Philly as a "marginal town": "Enjoy the game, Gabe, make a day of it," Pete says. "Maybe soak up all the grandeur of your fair city with one of those duckboat tours in the day, maybe swing out to Brookline for some sushi … I'll spend the day in my marginal town, soaking up anything and everything that might just clog up the remaining millimeter of my arteries that isn't already clogged." Pete isn't done. "I'll run the Art Museum steps for exercise and visit Valley Forge to call on some real Patriots. I'll take a drive down to Penn's Landing to gaze on the Spirit of 76 and stroll Elfreth's Alley, America's first street. I'll kick by Pat's and Geno's for a pregame cheesesteak, double whiz wit, before rolling over to Chickie N Pete's to watch the game with real fans — the kind who will live and die on every play not because we're underdogs, not because that is what marginal people do, but because passion isn't something you learn. It is innate, inborn and exists in every corner

Now the story of viewers who lost their favorite show and the dedicated fans who kept hope alive. It's "Arrested Development."
The Final Countdown has finally begun.
They said they weren't optimistic it could be done. But, we wouldn't take not optimistic it could be done for an answer! Seven years later, we're here to say "Mission Accomplished!"
The pipe dream that began when the final "Arrested Development" episodes aired is now a reality. We have Saved Our Bluths!!!
Netflix will release 15 new episodes featuring our favorite dysfunctional family on Sunday, May 26. One week from today!!! All the episodes will be released simultaneously, which will undoubtedly lead to all-night viewing parties for fans who have been dreaming of this moment since February 2006.
We wrote letters to Fox executives, we signed online petition after online petition and told everyone we knew to watch this show.
At the time we were bewildered. How could people not know about this show!?! Of course, much of the blame falls to Fox who didn't know how to properly market a show that didn't involve celebrities on ice, laugh tracks, or hordes of wannabe pop stars.
The brilliant writing revealing multi-layered, intelligent jokes in 30-minute increments is still unmatched. Many times, a joke was set up in one episode and would pay off three episodes later. There's just never been anything like it before or since. Several shows, such as "Modern Family," have tried to copy AD's formula, but haven't been able to execute it nearly as well. The cast's comedic timing was impeccable and Ron Howard's narration was the perfect tone. The best part? They didn't care if you got the joke. You couldn't watch this show while checking your Facebook wall and reading an article about French film. You were expected to pay attention.
Series creator Mitch Hurwitz never gave up on the promise he made when Maeby Funke pitched the series to Howard in the final scene.
The years of 'will they, won't they' grew tiresome. Every now and then, we'd get a glimmer of hope from a cast member doing press for another project that yes, they were still working on the movie. But, no they didn't know when it'd begin. When the AD cast reunited for a panel for the New Yorker, the bombshell dropped that the Bluths would finally get the fourth season they deserved.
Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Jeffrey Tambor, Jessica Walter, Tony Hale, David Cross, Portia de Rossi, Michael Cera and Alia Shawkat celebrated this news with a cast-wide chicken dance.
Hurwitz initially planned 10 episodes, but had so much new material and story boards that the season swelled to 15.
The advance in technology since AD's premiere has steadily grown the fan base, so it's not just a "cult" TV show anymore. Through iTunes, Netflix, YouTube and other streaming video services, there are dozens of us now. That's not including the cable outlets that picked up the series, such as IFC.
All the clips I've seen and the newly released trailer are making me more excited than winning 'best hair' in high school. This season will bring us up to speed on our Bluths since we last saw them aboard the Queen Mary. Each new episode will focus on one main character. Subsequent episodes feature the same events, but from different characters' perspectives. According to Portia De Rossi, the order in which you view the episodes is unimportant, but can lead to some pretty incredible changes in your perception of the others.
For an inexplicable reason until we see the new episodes, an ostrich has moved into the Bluths' Bolboa Towers condo. We also see George Michael riding Gob's segway and a Michael Bluth Company logo.
Our revived Bluths will be joined by some of our favorite guest stars including the Bluths' bumbling lawyer Barry Zuckerkorn (Henry Winkler,) the attorney with a mouthful of a name, Bob Loblaw (Scott Baio), George senior's secretary Kitty Sanchez (Judy Greer), the Bluths' vertigo afflicted neighbor, Lucille Austero (Liza Minelli) and rival illusionist Tony Wonder (Ben Stiller).
Add Tobias' acting coach Carl Weathers and baby you've got a show going!
We're planning to celebrate with some frozen bananas dipped in delicious brown treat and perhaps some new cut-offs for our chihuahua, Tobias, named of course, after the world's first analrapist.
If you want the full viewing experience:
1. Start a viewing party at 11:30 PM on Saturday night.
2nd-of-ley. Prepare omelettes as an entree (since no one should ever order the Skip Scramble).
3. For dessert, serve frozen, chocolate covered bananas on a stick.
4. Have a John Grisham paperback or two on the coffee table (just in case Pop Pop comes down from the attic).
5. Send an email to Fox Network telling them that you're watching Netflix and reminding them that they dropped a multiple Emmy Award winning/Golden Globe Winning/Future Classic/Television Critic/Writers Guild of America/Young Artist award winning show.
6. Hold a fundraiser during your party for TBA.
7. If you're going to give out invitations, be sure to fill them with glitter and a tongue-in-cheek threat that "I know where you live! haha", just in case they don't show up.
8. Grab a juice box and whole thing of candy beans and happy viewing!
Lastly, enjoy. This show is not a typical television show, so don't expect the dumbing-down approach of reality television.

Good luck for the price. Contemporary look which brightens up my room. Color is off though...i thought I was buying a grey and ivory rug and it is very much beige. Its nice, but I was disappointed as I was looking for a cool gray.
i was looking at rugs that were 2, 3, 4, and even 5x the price of this one. i loved the design of this rug, but was SO nervous that the quality would be poor because it is so freakin' cheap. when i received it, i was pleasantly surprised about the high quality, but remained skeptical. maybe it would shed so much that there would be "bald" spots? maybe it would curl at the ends and never lie flat? it has only been a month, but i have no complaints. i love this rug. i would buy it again. i might even buy a back up in case mine gets stained or damaged =P
Very nice and soft, this rug really complements our living room. The rug is not wool, which is good for someone with the allergies. The chemical smell took a few days to air out. Overall, great value for the price.
Thi rug is very nice. It lightens up my living room and is a perfect neutral. What I like best about Overstock is its excellent shipping. I ordered this late on a Sunday afternoon and it ws at my door on TUESDAY MORNING. I have never had a problem with Overstock.
Actual rug is a bit closer to ivory & beige than white & gray. Also it's plusher than I expected. The swirls are sculpted in, in a lower pile, giving the rug plenty of dimensionality. Overall I'm very pleased. Really like this one.
Love this rug! it's so plush and soft and the color palette works so well in our living room!
I love this rug and I'm trying to buy another one. It's very soft and neutral, so it fits in most rooms of the house.
I am using the rug under the cocktail table in the living room. It looks amazing. The high-low and muted colors bring the whole living room together in a cohesive conversation area. I haven't noticed much shedding. It is a terrific value. This rug looks much more expensive than it was.
I was double minded to buy this rug since I was afraid to make such a big purchase without actually seeing the product. But the rug is great... look really nice in my living room..its really soft and plushed... I wud recommend it to anyone
This was the first time for me ordering from Overstock.com. I am starting over due to divorce and wanted to really put my personality into my new apartment. I bought new furniture already and wanted an area rug in the center of the furniture space. You had by far the best selection of area rugs which gave me a harder time because I had no idea at that point what accent colors I was going to use. When I came across this rug I knew it was th one! It had 2 of the colors that my furniture had and definately fit my style. It arrived sooner than expected and very well wrapped. When I finally opened it up and layed it out I fell in love! The colors are very accurate to what the computer shows, as is the design. I couldn't have been any more pleased! The cost was a bit much to me, I think it coud have been a bit cheaper but then again I never shopped for an 8x10 area rug. I would recommend this to anyone! Thank you Overstock!!

Shortly after the military relocated her family to the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, Rebecca Hardee fell in love with the warm, semi-tropical waters.
The beach was the perfect place for her and her husband, Mark, to officially celebrate their matrimony with a vow-renewal ceremony.
Rebecca, 24, did her research and discovered Tropical Beach Weddings, owned by Cecelia and Michael Cappella of Navarre. Though her initial hope was to have her wedding ceremony in Destin or Fort Walton Beach, Cappella easily changed Rebecca's mind.
"When we booked our wedding through her, she suggested we check out Navarre Beach," said Rebecca, who lives in Phoenix City, Ala. "And we did. It's a great, hidden gem that no one knows about. We loved it."
In March, Rebecca booked her beach-side service for June 21.
But when news of the April 20 Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion hit mainstream media, Rebecca became concerned.
"We were a little worried, but just hoped that (the oil) wouldn't make it that far," she said.
Each week, Rebecca monitored local news outlets, as well as called Cecelia for updates on the status of Navarre Beach.

If you took a moment during the heat of the presidential race to drop by the Mitt Romney campaign office, you would have been shocked by the number of white people working to get him elected. About the only color you would have seen were the red and white in the Romney-Ryan posters.
If you met with Romney's senior campaign team -- the decision makers -- you would have said major corporations in America have more diversity on their boards of directors than these guys.
At a Romney campaign event, followers of mine on Twitter always played the "do-you-know-that-one-black-person-who-is-always-standing-behind-Mitt-with-a-sign" game. Seriously. Seeing someone black, Hispanic or Asian at a Romney campaign rally was always a sight to behold.
So why in the world is Mitt Romney now largely blaming minorities for the butt-kicking administered to him by President Obama?
In a conference call with donors, Romney attributed his loss to the president playing Santa Claus by showering minorities and young voters with "gifts" -- health care, student loans and those things Americans clearly don't need.
"The Obama campaign was following the old playbook of giving a lot of stuff to groups that they hoped they could get to vote for them and be motivated to go out to the polls, specifically the African-American community, the Hispanic community and young people," Romney said during the conference call. "In each case they were very generous in what they gave to those groups."
Hey, black people, Mitt reveals what you got for your vote!
"With regards to African-American voters, 'Obamacare' was a huge plus -- and was highly motivational to African-American voters. You can imagine for somebody making $25-, or $30-, or $35,000 a year, being told 'You're now going to get free health care' -- particularly if you don't have it, getting free health care worth, what, $10,000 a family, in perpetuity -- I mean this is huge. Likewise with Hispanic voters, free health care was a big plus."
Hey, Hispanic people, what did Obama have for you behind door No. 2?
"The amnesty for the children of illegals -- the so-called Dream Act kids -- was a huge plus for that voting group. On the negative side, of course, they always characterized us as being anti-immigrant, being tough on illegal immigration, and so forth, so that was very effective with that group."
Wow, thanks, Daddy Mitt, for breaking that down for us!
Now it's time for a dose of reality from the black guy to the white guy, Mitt Romney.
Mitt, last I checked, the Affordable Care Act is for all Americans. The white ones too! Your effort to portray the health care law as nothing more than a freebie to the blacks is a joke.
The Dream Act for kids could largely be seen as helping Latinos, but there are some white folks and people of African descent mixed into the pot that makes up those in the country illegally, so you're again off base.
But Mitt, you need to check your facts and realize that there were a lot of white people who really didn't like you.
According to exit polls, 72% of all U.S. voters were white. That's a super majority.
Mitt, you got 59% of those voters. That's a big number, but you must understand that you might have wanted to appeal to more than just white voters to win. When you give one speech to the NAACP and only one interview with a black media outlet, Black Enterprise -- son, that's not gonna cut it.
But the most hilarious thing to see is how many of the whitest states in America the white guy lost to the black guy.
See, if you accept Romney's theory that minorities were a prime reason he lost, then he should have cleaned up in the Electoral College in those really, really, really white states.
Let's take a look:
Maine, 94% white: Obama
Vermont, 94% white: Obama
New Hampshire, 92% white: Obama
West Virginia, 93% white: Romney
Iowa, 88% white: Obama

By Gregory Phillips Staff writer
Citing the tightening federal budget, the Army and Marine Corps canceled their higher education tuition assistance program Thursday. Thousands of soldiers and Marines use the grants to take college courses while serving in the military.
"The secretary of the Army has approved the suspension of the tuition assistance program," said the outgoing message on the Army Education Center help-desk line Friday morning. "Soldiers will no longer be permitted to submit new requests for tuition assistance."
Word of the quietly issued decision spread across social media Thursday. It was confirmed on the Department of Defense website Friday afternoon. The Pentagon blamed the "current fiscal situation," which for the Army includes about $18 billion in cuts triggered by sequestration.
Courses in which soldiers already are enrolled at civilian colleges and universities will not be affected, the Army said. Soldiers will be allowed to complete those courses.
The initial announcement said the program would be suspended as of 5 p.m. Friday, but soldiers reported it already was closed earlier in the day.
"The Army understands the impacts of this decision and will re-evaluate the decision if the budgetary situation improves," the announcement said.
The suspension applies to all soldiers, including the Army National Guard and the Army Reserve.
The program provided $250 per credit hour with an annual cap of $4,500. About 200,000 soldiers nationwide used the assistance in fiscal 2012, when the Army spent about $373 million on it.
The number of Fort Bragg soldiers affected runs at least into the hundreds, but the exact number was not immediately clear. Education Center officials were still assessing the effects.
"This is a quick-moving train," Fort Bragg spokesman Ben Abel said Friday. "We just found out about this yesterday."
Decisions on the future of the Navy and Air Force programs are expected next week, the Department of Defense said.
"It's like a punch in the stomach," said Trish Brownlee, an Army veteran whose husband is about to leave on his seventh deployment in the past 10 years. "Here, while you've made all these sacrifices, we're going to take away this program."
The Army said G.I Bill benefits still will be available. Brownlee said her husband transferred some of his benefits to her so she could complete her degree after being discharged from the Army National Guard for medical reasons.
"We were relying on tuition assistance for him to finish his degree while he's still in," she said.
Fort Bragg soldiers take college courses at schools across the region.
About 20 percent of students at Fayetteville State University are affiliated with the military, Associate Vice Chancellor Roxie Shabazz said in an email. An exact number of those on the tuition assistance program was not available, but Shabazz said the loss would hurt soldiers and the school.
"It will have a negative impact on our ability to continue to serve and educate our military-affiliated students," she said.
Of the 85 Methodist University students enrolled from Fort Bragg for courses in the term beginning March 18 - all of whom would have been eligible for tuition assistance - 40 of them had not requested the help as of Friday.
That means they won't get it.
"We estimate that by the end of the registration period, it is possible we may be unable to register up to 100 students due to the suspension of the tuition assistance program," spokeswoman Maria Brunson said. She said Methodist students can call 436-3624 for advice.
At the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, 39 students will be affected, spokesman Scott Bigelow said.
"They will be funded through this semester," he said. After that, it would take time to sort through other financial aid options.
Campbell University's Fort Bragg Campus has 78 full-time and 215 part-time students.
Soldiers there are eligible for federal financial aid and need-based scholarships from the state for North Carolina residents, spokeswoman Haven Hottel said.
"Our Office of Extended Campuses is working on a proposal now to help mitigate this loss of financial assistance," she said.
Paul Bruss spent four years in the Army and another four in the Army National Guard before getting out in 2010. He called tuition assistance the biggest factor for him signing up.
"I probably wouldn't have done it if not for that," he said. "That's a big selling point to a lot of soldiers that are in right now. They're risking their lives, and the least payback they can get is we can send them to school. Now you don't have that opportunity; that doesn't seem right."
