can't connect to 5ghz bandPros: connects to 2.4 Cons: can't connect to 5ghz and there is no tech support at netgear Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Only thing worse than router is supportPros: none anymore Cons: Stopped working completely after 9 months. Other Thoughts: After 3 months you can only get email support, That means 1 email back and forth a day which is inexcusable. Take weeks to answer simple questions. And then answers are scripted and point to silly solutions like reboot your router. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: When it works it works great. It's fast and HD video streams without a hiccup. Cons: It drops signal or shows to a crawl a few times a day. Very annoying! I have to reset the router and least once every other day. My desktop is plugged directly into my Modem, so I know it's not the ISP. It's very frustrating because the signal drops are very random and always seem to happen at the most inconvenient times. I hope Netgears newer AC routers are better because they are going to lose a lot of customers that bought this to Asus. I'm going to buy one of the Asus routers myself. I tried to save a couple bucks going this one, but now I'm out more than if I would have just fine with a good one in the first place. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
FlakyPros: Seemed to work seamlessly - in the beginning. Cons: After four months noticed internet connection dropping out repeatedly. Thought is was the ISP but troubleshot, bypassing the R6200. ISP fine. R6200 likely the cause and the web search found folks with same complaints - increasing frequency and severity of dropouts. Want my money back to put towards something more reliable. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
disappointmentPros: none Cons: This is my second netgear router. The first one lasted 4 years. This one has not worked consistently since the six month mark. I will be replacing it with a different brand, as it is not worth the grief of being without wireless service half the time. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Worst router ive ever ownedPros: None that I can think of Cons: This thing rarely works as it should and as a result has become a wires router in our house. Manufacturer Response: 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great 5ghz, bad 2.4ghzPros: Great looking. Performs very well with 5ghz devices. Decent interface. Cons: 2.4 ghz devices get dropped regularly. More than 3 2.4ghz devices at a time end up causing stuttering streaming and drops. No aftermarket firmware support. Other Thoughts: I was excited to pick this up, thinking it was good future-proofing. Maybe so, but my legacy devices, like an old iPod touch for instance, cannot maintain streaming content for any length of time. My wife's laptop does not support 5ghz and she has to reconnect to wireless every time she uses it.Rebooting the router helps for awhile, but realistically, it needs to done daily or more often. Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Fast long range, works with androidPros: Fast. Good Range. The genie application lets me watch and listen to media that is stored on my media PC from my smart phone. As long as I'm within wifi range. Cons: Price. Can only be used in the "standing up" position. Other Thoughts: I bought this Router to replace my aging DLINK DGL4500 gamer-lounge router. The DGL4500 does not work with Android devices. They can find the network, and connect but internet connection is cut off after a few seconds. The R6200 Works flawlessly in that department. The Branding is a little misleading. It is Dual link either 400 or 800. They do not add together for 1200. You cannot connect to both at the same time. 2.4GHZ for longer range, but slower speeds. 5ghz for faster Speeds and shorter range. All in all a great upgrade for anyone running older (a,b,g,n) router. The router Broadcasts 2 frequencies simultaneously. When you set it up one of the network ssid's will say (5GHZ) after it. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great routerPros: This router has good range and a lot of features to customize your network set up. Cons: Range could be a bit better, had to use a range extender for the furthest part of the house. Other Thoughts: Like Netgear routers and have had a few , they always performed well. Did you find this review helpful? |
Want a refundPros: none Cons: Like many others I bought this as a replacement to the WNDR3700 which bit the dust after 2 years. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

CrystalCincinnati, OHHairMedium BrownFine or Thin HairThick or Coarse HairMy Second Solia Flat IronThis is my second Solia Flat Iron. I purchased my first one (from Folica) in November, 2010 and it lasted until November 2012. It died two days after the 2-year warranty ended. The day it died, I was in contact with Folica to see if there was ANYTHING that could be done since it was only 2 days after the warranty and they said no.
After a lot of debate on my part and research, I purchased my second Solia (the same exact flat iron) from Folica in February 2013. I just decided that I definitely got my moneyâ??s worth because I use this flat iron almost every day. It works great and if I donâ??t wash my hair the second day, it is still really straight and looks nice.
I love the flat iron because I have long, thick, fine hair that frizzes easily. With this Solia, it only takes about 10 minutes to iron my whole head. It takes longer to dry my hair. I normally only need to do one pull per section and it is super straight. In the back where I canâ??t see, I usually do two or three pulls with the iron just for good measure! I also like how hot it gets.

Adjustable heat settings, it heats quickly and provides loads of shine. I used it on my mom's hair recently to add some curls and height to her hair and was done so quickly it even surprised me.

Back when my girls were in high school they said I HAD to get it because all of their friends said they worked the best! I bought a second one about 6 months ago and unfortunately, my daughter's bag was stolen from her car and her flat iron was in it! So I purchased yet another one about a month ago......Well worth the money, and it came so quick! Thank you!!posted Mar 5, 2013Link to this post
TessaStopped Working In Less Than A YearI would definitely not recommend this product. I thought I was getting a great straightener after all the reviews, but about 8 months in it started shorting out and would stop heating in the midst of me using it. I have owned flat irons for year so I understand to not wrap the cord and it was never dropped. I have the warranty, but I still have to pay to ship it back plus a $10 warranty fee. Looks like I will be out another $20-$30 and without a straighter for a couple of weeks! Save yourself the extra cash and look for another straighter - there are plenty out there!posted Mar 4, 2013Link to this post

Delaying paediatric knee operations may lead to an increased risk of complications in later life.
A new report from scientists at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas found that anterior cruciate ligament surgery needs to be conducted within 150 days of the injury if it is to be at its most effective. Doctors explained the likelihood of medial meniscus or chondral injuries increased the longer the operation was postponed. Other factors were also found to be important. "Our data demonstrates patient weight over 143 lbs (65 kg) to be associated with an increased rate of medial and lateral meniscal tears at the time of surgery," said the report's senior author Philip Wilson. The researchers hope the findings may help healthcare staff improve their counselling of patients and families in the future. Another recent scientific study found that five per cent of Americans now have prosthetic knees.

Waste hierarchy
This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2011) |
The waste hierarchy is a classification of waste management options in order of their environmental impact, such as: reduction, reuse, recycling and recovery.[1] In the European Union Waste Framework Directive 2008 the waste hierarchy has five steps: prevention; preparing for re-use; recycling; other recovery, e.g. energy recovery; and disposal.[2]
The waste hierarchy has taken many forms over the past decade,[when?] but the basic concept has remained the cornerstone of most waste minimisation strategies. The aim of the waste hierarchy is to extract the maximum practical benefits from products and to generate the minimum amount of waste.
Some waste management experts[who?] have recently[when?] incorporated an additional R: "Re-think", with the implied meaning that the present system may have fundamental flaws, and that a thoroughly effective system of waste management may need an entirely new way of looking at waste. Source reduction involves efforts to reduce hazardous waste and other materials by modifying industrial production. Source reduction methods involve changes in manufacturing technology, raw material inputs, and product formulation. At times, the term "pollution prevention" may refer to source reduction.
Another method of source reduction is to increase incentives for recycling. Many communities in the United States are implementing variable-rate pricing for waste disposal (also known as Pay As You Throw - PAYT) which has been effective in reducing the size of the municipal waste stream.[3]
Source reduction is typically measured by efficiencies and cutbacks in waste. Toxics use reduction is a more controversial approach to source reduction that targets and measures reductions in the upstream use of toxic materials. Toxics use reduction emphasizes the more preventive aspects of source reduction but, due to its emphasis on toxic chemical inputs, has been opposed more vigorously by chemical manufacturers. Toxics use reduction programs have been set up by legislation in some states, e.g., Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Oregon.The 3 R 's represent the ' Waste Hierarchy ' which lists the best ways of managing waste from the most to the least desirable. Many of the things we currently throw away could be reused again with just a little thought and imagination.
How the hierarchy works[edit]
This article appears to contain a large number of buzzwords. (July 2011) |
The Rs are categories at the top of our disposal options. They include a variety of initiatives for disposing of discards. Generally, options lowest on the list are least desirable.
Reduce - to buy less and use less. Incorporates common sense ideas like turning off the lights, rain barrels, and taking shorter showers, but also plays a part in composting/grasscycling (transportation energy is reduced), low-flow toilets, and programmable thermostats. Includes the terms Re-think, Precycle, Carpool, Efficient, and Environmental Footprint.
Reuse - elements of the discarded item are used again. Initiatives include waste exchange, hand-me-downs, garage sales, quilting, travel mugs, and composting (nutrients). Includes the terms laundry, repair, regift, and upcycle.
Recycle - discards are separated into materials that may be incorporated into new products. This is different from Reuse in that energy is used to change the physical properties of the material. Initiatives include Composting, Beverage Container Deposits and buying products with a high content of post-consumer material. Within recycling there is distinction between two types:
- Upcycle- converting low-value materials into high-value products (more desirable)
- Downcycle - converting valuable products into low-value raw materials (less desirable)
Incentives for 3R[edit]
The 3R's of reduce, reuse and recycle were developed by Peter Groves, when asked to shorten the waste hierarchy pyramid into easy steps memorable for consumers. Since, they have been considered to be a base of environmental awareness and a way of promoting ecological balance through conscious behaviour and choices. It is generally accepted that these patterns of behaviour and consumer choices will lead to savings in materials and energy which will benefit the environment.
In this context it may be enquired whether certain economic instruments may be considered to further strengthen these behaviours and choices. An example may be to reduce the sales tax or value added tax on goods that are made by recycling used materials, such as paper, plastics, glass, metals. Another example may be to reduce sales tax or value added tax on second-hand goods, which may include books, clothes, house-hold gadgets, bicycles, cars and automobiles, office equipment, medical and scientific equipment, telecommunication equipment, agricultural equipment, industrial and manufacturing equipment, boats, ships, trains and trams, aeroplanes, oil rigs, and so forth.
An additional approach may be to reduce the interest rates on the financial loans, which companies avail of, for their commercial activities in the recycling, re-use and resale of used material and equipment.
It is plausible that this may have a significant impact on consumer behaviour, and may strengthen those sections of the economy and trade that are associated with such goods and services. Additionally, this would be consistent with supporting consumer behaviour and choices that are beneficial for the environment and for the economy.
The Rest of the Hierarchy[edit]
The Rs are not the only disposal options:
Generate - capturing useful material for waste to energy programs. Includes Methane Collection, Gasification, and Digestion, and the term Recover.
Incinerate - high temperature destruction of material. Differs from Gasification in that oxygen is used; differs from burning in that high temperatures consume material efficiently and emissions are controlled.
Devastate - to discard into the natural environment, or to "trash" the planet. Includes Litter, Landfill, Burn Barrels, Unnecessary Vehicle Idling, and Dumping discards onto land or into water.

From Mythili Rao, CNN
NEW YORK (CNN) -- A little more than a month after New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer announced his resignation, Penguin Group imprint Portfolio will be publishing a book about his career "from start to finish," president and publisher Adrian Zackheim told CNN.
New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned from office in March,
saying he wants to "atone for his personal failings."
Peter Elkind, editor-at-large at Fortune and author of a 2005 profile of the governor called "Satan or Savior?" in that magazine, will be collaborating with filmmaker Alex Gibney to produce a book and documentary which will be released together, according to Penguin spokeswoman Allison McLean.
Spitzer resigned in March after allegations that he was linked to a prostitution ring ensnared in a federal investigation. Spitzer has not been charged with any wrongdoing.
Elkind's last book, "The Smartest Guys in the Room," in which he and co-author Bethany McLean retraced Enron's downfall, was a best-seller in 2003.
Zackheim said that when Elkind suggested the book, he and the company were "very interested" and "very excited about the book."
"He's a fantastic reporter and I know that he's going to write a great book," Zackheim said.
Elkind and Spitzer were college classmates. Elkind graduated from Princeton the year before Spitzer did.
Anybody interested?

If you were to become disabled, how long would you continue to receive a paycheck? This is a question that many people believe that they know the answer to; unfortunately, the answer is usually given without fully investigating the type and amount of coverage that they really have. The dilemma is that if you think you're protected and it turns out that you are not, it could lead to unexpected and unfortunate consequences, should something adverse happen to you. Imagine how devastating it would be to work hard all of your life and then lose everything as a result of an accident or illness. The solution to this problem is finding out what type of coverage you have, and taking steps to address any shortfalls.
Discussing disability insurance Ontario is even less fun than discussing life insurance. But it's important. Disability insurance is intended to help you meet your income requirements while you are off from work, allowing you to concentrate on what's really important, recovering from your disability and returning to an active life.
For most of us, our income is our single greatest financial asset, and disability insurance protects the loss of that asset. While there are more dual-income households than ever before, the reality is that both incomes are needed. The loss of even one income can have a significant impact on the ability of a household to cover their monthly expenses.
Some things to consider:
If you already have a policy in place, what is your monthly benefit? Would you be able to live on that amount of income if you had to? One way to determine how you would be affected financially, should you become unable to work, is to try and live on the monthly benefit amount for a period of one month. If you find that you needed to dip into your savings, you'll have a pretty good idea of how hard it would be to live for an extended period of time on this reduced income.
If you wait until you are actually ill, you may be unmeasurable. Nobody wants to get sick or injured, but if that happens, having protection in place can provide peace of mind. Consider this statistic: A 20-year-old has a 30% chance of becoming disabled by the time he or she reaches retirement age. While our medical system covers a large portion of our expenses, including hospital care, disability still remains one of the leading causes of bankruptcy in Canada (the reality is that even six months without income could wipe out years of hard-earned savings).
Everyone has something that they want to protect. For example, while a married individual with children would want to ensure that their family does not suffer due to a loss of income, a single individual with no dependents would want to protect their credit rating. In the event of an injury, you might incur a loss of income which could significantly impact your ability to pay your bills, and even though your income might change, your obligations likely won't.
There are varying types of coverage that offer different types and amounts of protection. Talk to an adviser like Brendan Donnelly today, who would be happy to review your current coverage, answer any questions that you may have about disability insurance, and discuss a solution that meets your needs and fits your budget.

Hey evryone. Wow, 2010 sped by.
My big news of the moment is TRACKER'S SIN, book four of the Hell's Eight series, was chosen as a Romantic Times BOOKreviews top pick for October. Woo hoo! And double woo-hoo, Spice just contracted the next four books in this series. The current plan is that they will be released one a year starting 2012. Like my Promise series, Hell's Eight probably is not what a reader thinks of when they think Western Historical, but each of these stories is a slice of life rich with emotion, spiced with passion, and filled with moments I hope will make your heart twist. The men of Hell's Eight are unpredictable and fascinating. They're definitely a law unto themselves, as wild as the West in which they live. Determined, and single-minded, they've planned for every contingency that could complicate their goals except for the one they never saw coming: the extraordinary women that will capture their hearts. I am so glad Spice has decided to continue the series.
Here's a quick overview of upcoming books and series:
REAPER'S JUSTICE and REAPER'S VOW. These books begin a Western Historical werewolf romance series in which deadly men move beyond the hell they've been living and head West in search of the person they once were, yet barely remember. This series has it all, laughter, angst, tortured heroes and the women that bring them "home" to the dreams they've forgotten. This series is scheduled to come out February 2011.
The Promise Series (Western Historical) has gone mainstream! Starting with The Rev's story, this series that's widely popular with readers of all genres and has been described as Deadwood meets erotic romance by readers will be published through Berkley Sensation. This series features the bad boys of the Old West who meet their matches in the unexpected women they meet in the most unexpected places. These alphas are men hardened by life with temperaments honed to a ruthless edge by their experiences, yet who still harbor a bone deep sense of honor that earns them the reward of the one woman who can tap into their hearts. Each woman is as individual as the man she completes, but for a man who has never expected more than a violent end for doing the right thing in this life, they are a gift beyond price and there's nothing they won't do to keep them safe, happy and above all, theirs. Promises Decide will tentatively out in late 2o11 early 2012.
For those of you who love those tough and tender men in the Wild series and have been asking about the third book, as of yet, I don't have a story line for them . I'm waiting for it to come to me but so far they've been pretty secretive as to what they're doing. As soon as I know I'll let you know. :-)
I'm asked constantly about the Unchained and the Others series and whether I intend to continue them. I love those series. The good news is that I will be releasing the next book in the Unchained series through the Kindle platform early this year. I chose the Kindle because you don't have to own the device to use the application. It's a free download for any device you have including your computer. This means anyone and everyone can have access which is important to me. The cover is currently being developed but I do like it. Do to contractual reasons, I had to write the second book differently than I originally planned but I feel the new story line will definitely please.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Check out the coming soon page for release dates, read the excerpts and feel free to contact me with any questions. I am always on my Yahoo group and, of course, email works great.

A personal channel of objective, transparent thoughts.
Don't interrupt the story
August 21, 2011. Categories: Branding, Business, User Experience.User experiences are brands. Brands are stories. And stories must continue even through online diversity.
In their workshop at UX London 2011, Stephanie & Bryan Rieger mentioned that brand presence is undergoing a massive transformation. Because of the diversity of new devices and platforms, valuable storytelling in brand strategy doesn't apply as before. Redesigns and startups are popping up at the same speed as devices are being sold.
A while ago, I came across this A List Apart-article: A Case for Web Storytelling. It says well that web design is in storytelling what TV was in the 50's. Web agencies nor todays user experience agencies have never realized, that a product needs to be introduced by a story, and after launch fostered as a process. An ability that advertising agencies have always had.
When you combine the Rieger's statement of brand transformation, the lack of storytelling and redesign, you'll end up with some quite interesting, although serious observations:
1. Today brands are user interfaces, products just like training shoes or jeans. The first come across with brands is digital.
2. Storytelling is brand building. Every user interface has a story, which can either be affected or ignored.
3. Redesign needs to be dumped. Redesign is a story-killer and therefore a failure regarding consistent brand building.
Every product needs marketing in some form, but a functioning product doesn't need illusions. Storytelling should be seen as modern post-launch design management. Advertising agencies live in symbiosis with their clients through long-term contracts. Below three basic steps of how user experience agencies could do the same:
1. The user-data of the product needs to be accessed. This shouldn't be a problem for the clients.
2. The behavioral models of these should be analyzed regularly through a price affordable even to smaller businesses.
3. Improvement's should be implemented when needed.
User experience agencies might just be in their first evolution-phase. There's plenty of will to create purpose; either through independent implementation of an idea or just through spreading them. The next phase is to turn redesigns into design management. Overall it's less expensive, and brands become stronger due to familiar stories.

I am so excited to be talking with author Jenny B. Jones. She is one of my favorite young adult authors. Let me just say, if you haven't read one of Jenny's books, you are totally missing out on a good time. She makes me laugh so hard I weep. I've read all six of her teen books, and we've reviewed all six of those books on Novel Teen.
Here is a list if you want to check out our reviews:
A Katie Parker Production
In Between
On the Loose
The Big Picture
A Charmed Life
So Not Happening
I'm So Sure
So Over My Head
I like these books so much that I bought a set of each for my mom. That's right. My mom is a grandma who has a ball reading Jenny B. Jones' teen books. I figure, why should teens have all the fun? And my mom totally agrees.
Jenny, I'm so glad to have you visit Novel Teen. When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a lot of things. Probably the main thing was that I wanted to be Barbara Walters. I'm kind of glad I grew out of that one. Though I'm sure Barbara is a lovely woman.
What was your favorite subject in high school? Your least favorite?
My favorite subjects were English and history. My least favorite would be science. I just didn't get it. I still don't. And I thought the pig dissection would push me over the edge. Ironically, my classroom is situated between two science classes. They just finished pig dissection. I say a prayer for the dearly departed animals every time I walk by. (As I'm spraying my air freshener.)
If you could bring any character from one of your books to life, who would it be and why?
I love Mad Maxine in the Katie Parker series. (Can I say I love one of my own characters? I also love inanimate objects like cheese, so take it for what it's worth.) Maxine is Katie Parker's foster grandmother. She has the body of a senior citizen, but the mind of a sixteen year old. Due to her age, she can say and do whatever she wants and get away with it. She was so much fun to write. Maxine is also not without her boy problems and has resorted to fireworks and hanging off of water towers to get her man Sam's attention. Everyone needs a crazy friend like that.
I would totally love Mad Maxine as my neighbor. Never a dull moment. Jenny, can you Twitter your newest or upcoming release in 140 characters or less?
So Over My Head: Bella goes undercover as clown to solve circus murder. Must also stop dad's wedding and win back Luke from skanky ex.
LOL Nicely done.
What is the one book you wish you had written and why?
A Year Down Yonder by Richard Peck. Because it is just simply the best.
What is the new release book that you're most looking forward to reading?
I'm looking forward to reading So Over It by Stephanie Morrill, the third in the Reinvention of Skylar Holt series. Can't wait to see how that series ends!
I loved that book. We reviewed it here on Novel Teen. (Click here to read our review.) Do you have any pets?
I have one cat, Miller. He is mentally challenged and needs a helmet. Exhibit A: http://www.jennybjones.com/2010/05/19/theres-a-cat-so-over-my-head/
Using the letters N T (for Novel Teen), create the title of your next bestseller. (For example, Nocturnal Cheerleaders.) Nobakecookie Tasters?
You're invited to a White House function, and you have the chance to give a 10-minute speech to the President and the country watching on TV. What do you talk about?
Wow. Good question. I would probably talk about the fact that America is not taking care of their own. We have an overflow of children in the foster care system and not enough good homes. I'd love to see our churches rise up and take care of this. I'd also mention how it's a crime in our country how we completely drop kids in the foster care system after 18. Many are left homeless.
I'd round it out with a few mentions of my idea about mandatory sweats and yoga pants as the dress code in the workplace. Who needs dress pants and skirts? So passé! And my ideas about a four day work week. (Still eight hour day, of course.) And maybe I'd round it out with a challenge to make Saturday morning cartoons better. Don't act like you wouldn't do the same…
Woot! I'm all for the sweats. High heels are evil. I tend to fall over. And I live in John Day, Oregon, a lovely town of 2400 that reminds me a great deal of Truman, Oklahoma, though we have no maxi pad factory… (Readers, this is a joke from the Charmed Life series. Bella's stepdad works at such a factory.) We have a four day school week in John Day. So my kids seem to believe in Friday and Saturday morning cartoons. They have got it so good.
Remember those "classics" that you had to read in high school English class? Which book was your favorite? Which one should no one ever be forced to read?
I hated classics. I later grew up to teach English and refused to teach most of them. There's too much good stuff out there that's not 200 years old. We are constantly reinventing the wheel in education, yet Romeo and Juliet has been on the ninth grade curriculum for the last 50 years. What is that?
But all that to say, I'm not the biggest Shakespeare fan. But yet my favorite work of all time by any author is one of his comedies called Much Ado About Nothing. If you don't want to read it, there is an old 90s movies version of it starring a lot of famous folks like Denzel Washington and a very young Kate Beckinsale. This play is awesome. It's the basis for so many of our romantic comedies. It's about these young couple that meets and falls in love. (boring) But that relationship gets detonated by an evil scheme, and in the meantime Benedict and Beatrice, two independent sassy adults who are sharp tongued and swear they'll never fall in love do just that. With each other. There's so much more to it, but it's pretty much perfect.
Much Ado About Nothing is one of my favorites! I love when Emma Thompson is storming her way over to Kenneth Branagh (the same actor who plays Professor Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, for all you younger readers) and she says, "Against my will, I'm sent to bid you, come in to dinner." And he thinks there is a double meaning in that. Sigh! I could go on and quote the whole scene, but…yeah. Fun film. It's the only Shakespeare I understand. If you haven't seen it or read it, you should go do that, right after you read Jenny's books, of course.
Jenny, if you would meet any celebrity (actor, author, historical figure, etc), dead or alive (and not Jesus), who would you choose and what would you ask him or her?
Oh, my gosh. My hero is a woman named Carol Burnett, who 99 percent of teens will not know. (YouTube her.) She is a pioneer of sketch comedy, and the reason we have SNL. I am currently reading her latest autobiography. She is just brilliant and funny and unique and creative and humble and hilarious and classy. And she reminds me of my late grandmother. I would probably just ask Carol if I could have my picture taken with her and how she feels about a long-distance stalker.
Carol Burnett is hysterical. Watch the good version of the movie Annie to see her at work.
Thanks for your time, Jenny! It was fun to have you stop by.
Readers, Jenny is giving away a copy of her novel, So Not Happening. This is the first book in her Charmed Life series, and it is a wonderful read. If this interview made you laugh, it's just a taste of what comes in reading a Jenny B. Jones novel. To enter, please leave a comment with your email address in an anti-SPAM form, something like this: laugh [at] yahoo [dot] com, and you will be in the drawing for a copy!

Snowboarders at Seven Springs Mountain Resort at a earlier season. (Photo Courtesy of 7 Springs) |
Seven Springs, PA—
Seven Springs Mountain Resort will showcase the opening of the one and only STREETS terrain park on January 19. It is an urban design terrain park, the only one in the world. As early as this weekend, there was buzz around the state capital that such a unique feature terrain park would be built in Pennsylvania. The resort has brought in a host of famous snowboard riders such as Pat Moore ( rated one of the top 10 by Snowboarder Magazine), Nic Sauve ( according to the resort release was part of the brain trust for the creation of the STREETS), Austen Sweeten, Stevie Bell, Niko Cioffi, and Cam Pierce. They will all be riding at this spectacular event at Seven Springs. This terrain park has gained world press attention, according to some sources as far as Tel Aviv , Israel, and Oslo, Norway.

Saw "Road House" with Patrick Swayze for the first time tonight. I had bought the SE DVD for the wife because I knew she loved him (and his hot bod) in "Ghost". Ghost wasn't too bad a show.. Road House was awful! About the same calibre as a McGuyver episode. Everything from the badly written plot to the lame direction to the casting. The actual acting itself wasn't too bad, the actors were just badly directed. Maybe the amateur director didn't want to do too many takes to get everything perfect and waste all that film. Ranks up there with "Bad Boys" with Will Smith (NOT the Bad Boys with Sean Penn ) as one of the worst shows I've ever sat through. Really, I seriously think I might be able to do better myself.
A couple of movies that I've seen in the last ten years that I thought were in the running for the worst I'd ever seen were Twister and The Terminal. And if I was forced to watch one of them again I think It'd be Twister. At least I laughed a few times during it. But both of them were painfully bad. And they were big, expensive productions that took themselves seriously.
Seriously, I've probably watched Roadhouse at least half-a-dozen times on stations like TBS and it never gets old. I don't know if it is because it is so bad, but it will always have a place on my TV.
"Die Another Day" "Gremlins" "The Story Of Us" "Fargo" "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace" "Planet Of The Apes" (2001)
Shouldn't this thread be in Visual Arts? Back OT: A few of them happened this past summer: 'Little Man': By far the worst film I have had the (dis)pleasure of sitting through... EVER. 'RV': What looked very promising in the trailers turned out to be Sonnenfeld's and Williams' cheesiest efforts to date. 'Jacka$$: Number Two': The first one was gross-out comedy genius. This one was nothing more than a poor attempt to out-gross the original, and IMO many things in this one seemed totally staged, and rigged compared to the original (which were likely also staged/rigged but it didn't 'feel' like it)... I can probably think of more... -Aaron
I wonder who will be the first to name some popular, critically aclaimed classic in order to seem "controversial" and push buttons? How about this for a "bad" movie: last night I was cruising for the cable On Demand service's list of free movies and found something called Vampyros Lesbos. It was from 1971, in German, and yes, had lesbian vampires. Sounds like gold, right? Nope- it was all "artsy" but really lame and set to cheesy 60s go-go dancing music.
"King Frat" - the worst cash-in-on-someone-else's-idea film I've ever seen "Invasion of the Girl Snatchers" - I would have preferred lesbian vampires "The Last Action Hero" - Ahnold meets "The Purple Rose of Cairo"???
Sgt. Peppers Lonely Heart's Club Band (movie) Condorman and some Steven Seagull flick. No doubt there's even worse; I just don't need to contemplate what
I generally select movies on TV or DVD based on reviews (All Music Guide, IMDB, etc), so that eliminates most movies which are not worth the time. Given this filtering, the most disappointing movie I've seen lately is Outland (1981), which is just a boring Western plot set into the then fashionable space ship environment. Sean Connery's ennemies are as stupid and one-dimensional as the evil monsters in the Quake 2 game ... I've also watched "A Hard Days Night" because of it's historic importance , but you really have to love the Beatles to enjoy it. Fargo does certainly not belong into the "worst" category, although not everyone will like it.
Speed II Stars Wars (everything after part III) Matrix - Revolutions by the way Fargo is one of the best I've ever seen
Usually when it comes to movies I'm quite choosey and read reviews beforehand but a couple slip through the net. The Andy Kaufman biopic Man On The Moon was dreadful and I ended up thinking this guy wasn't that funny or interesting in the first place. And A Scanner Darkly is pretty bad.
There are two R1 editions available; here's a comparison(screenshots contain nudity). Some of the songs from the soundtrack by Manfred Hübler and Siegfried Schwab were released by Crippled Dick Hot Wax - still their biggest seller - and a sound sample is available at Score, Baby! I'll be the first to admit that Jess Franco is an acquired taste(doesn't someone on the forum have him as an avatar?), but Vampyros Lesbos is worth watching for the dusky charms of Soledad Miranda. And one of the worst movies I've seen recently was Superman Returns.
I saw it! Me and the wife were watching, but didn't know the the content. One vampire was brushing the others hair, and things were looking kinda odd. I got a big smile and said to my wife, "There going to do it!"!!!! My wife called me a pig and said that all men are disgusting. How could I think such a thing, she said. As she turned back to the TV, the Vampires were in fact "Doing It." I laughed my butt off!
There is 2 grades of bad movies for me: 'So bad it's good' and 'Turn it off NOW' My favorite 'so bad it's good' movie is Time Under Fire from 1996, which is one of the most brilliantly inept films I have ever seen. It even features the Dad from "Malcolm in the Middle" as the evil Commissioner Braddock, who looks a heck of a lot like the Emperor from "Star Wars", but with a southern accent If you ever see a VHS of this movie in a goodwill store, pick it up! (Warning: This film contains pointless nudity) I've only ever had one film go in my 'Turn it off NOW' list: Closer (2004) This film wasted 104 minutes of my life and I want them back Banal dialogue, no plot, no remotely likeable characters, and pointless swearing. Now I have nothing against bad language, but it just seemed like they were trying too hard to be 'edgy' and 'raw', which doesn't work when the acting isn't all that convincing The most pointless film I have ever seen!
Jess Franco has done a few legitimately excellent movies, like "The Awful Dr. Orloff", "Succubus" and "Venus in Furs". But even those are acquired taste type movies. At his best, he mixes surrealism, eroticism, horror and cocktail jazz like no other. I always love the use of music in his films. His movies nowadays are absolutely dreadful, even by Franco standards.

Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
I do really enjoy this product. It would be very helpful, though, if REI were to show measurements to help figure out circumference when closed. I had read reveiws about the gaitors not fitting around larger calves and I have larger feet (size 9.5-10.5) and was worried the middle size wouldn't fit. Now I wish i would have gone with the middle size and the large size is the tiniest bit too big...but maybe the next smaller size would be a little bit too small...
AND the top of the gaiter would probably stay in place better if there was a little bit of elastic...maybe with a toggle to help keep the elastic taught.
Other than that I enjoy wearing them while walking to work or the store OR riding bike to work or while errand-running.
There are quite a few products that could use specific measurements to help someone who really isn't THAT close to an REI figure out whether or not something may fit...
I am excited to see how they handle snow-shoeing (if we ever get more snowfall)...

Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
These are decent gaiters, with a few issues. First, the good: These gaiters are lightweight, fit well, and completely waterproof. I have forded streams with these without getting wet at all. I've had my current pair for about three years, and they have served me well in all sorts of conditions.
Now, for the issues. First, they are not very breathable at all. I realize that's an issue with most so-called "breathable" laminates, but with these gaiters I always end up with soaked lower limbs -- even in dry weather. It's not a fatal defect, but I did expect a little more from gaiters specifically advertised as "breathable."
Second, the construction is not quite as durable as I would like. Although my current pair is still going strong, it's also showing some pretty major signs of wear. In particular, the lower part of the gaiter started showing signs of abrasion the very first time I wore them snowshoeing. Again, it's not a fatal defect, but I would have liked to see a tougher fabric on that part of the gaiter (since that's precisely the area that's most exposed to brambles, rocks, and abrading surfaces of every kind).

Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
first time i wore these was in a blizzard up in the mountains of alaska with water proof shoes and they worked better then if i wore winter boots! flexible a had good water proof seal all around they worked great! looking forward to using them again very soon!
Best Uses
Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
A: The 3-layer Ventia material delaminated. This is probably not OR's fault, but their supplier apparently provided them with an inferior fabric.
B: The stitching between the Cordura and Ventia has pulled out, causing a wide split along the front seam of my gaiter. Poor craftsmanship is to blame here.
Too bad, because otherwise I've been a fan of OR's products.
Best Uses
Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
These are a great gaiter that I have used several times per week for nearly 2 years. Only recently have they developed a couple of small rips in the nylon and the lace hooks have bent. The fastening device at the top of the sleeve can be somewhat finicky and hard to adjust with gloves on.
These gaiters keep water, rocks, and snow out of your boots without overheating. I avoided a goretex gaiter, not wanting the extra laminate layer. As a result they aren't 100% waterproof (obviously), but still go a good job at keeping the boots dry if you slip during a stream crossing or during a downpour.
I've uses these primarily to keep rocks, rain and poison oak from getting under my pant legs and they have served that purpose well. If you're looking for an all-purpose all-weather. These are highly recommended.
Best Uses
Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
I have used these gaiters for the most part in Australia. During summer wearing long pants is not an option but wearing just boots and socks will not get you far because of spear grasses and other things that will just get into your boots or socks and then eventually force you to stop to pick them out.
These not only effectively stop anything getting into your boots, but protects the lower leg from getting beat up by low brush like lantana. I don't go bushwalking without them anymore regardless of the season.
They also provide a really snug fit around the boot which is critical in aiding the waterproofness. My foot slipped of a rock and into a creek a little under a foot deep. Without the gaiters I would have had soggy walk and probable blisters by the end of the day. But with them the water barely had the chance to get to the top of my socks from the gap between the gaiter and the boot. Dry feet! Yesss!
And because they are heavy where they need to be (around the ankles and right up the middle to the top) and lighter around the rest, you won't sweat as much. The top strap works well and effectively and has never accidentally come undone. It is needed however since it won't stand up fully by itself due to the light weight material.
Bottom line is that these gaiters work perfectly, feel great, are unobtrusive and represent great value.

Comments about Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiters:
These are great gaiters! They keep out the water and snow and are comfortable to wear. They don't bunch up around my legs like other kinds do and they fit over my boots well.

This route is the leftmost route on the 'Chicken Wall' at 'The Clock Tower'. 7 bolts follow a face with pockets and crimpers to the anchors. The route can be eased by using the arete (a little dirty). I would place this route at the same grade as the route to the right, Rubber Chicken, somewhere around 5.10 c/d. Not quite as fluid as Rubber Chicken.
7 bolts - 2 bolt anchor.
Not the worst route on the rock, but other than the crux reach/undercling, its kind of like doing the same move over and over....
The moves felt redundant and pumpy. Delight wasn't terrible, but did not live up to its name. Worth it for a workout.
I think this route is more fun if you stay to the right of the bolt line.
Came back to lead this again and tried it on the right side. Crag Dweller is right, it is more fun on the right side for sure.
The one to the right is comparable in difficulty but much better quality.
Good route. I think the crux move was a little tougher than Rubber Chicken. Interesting holds, nice rock. I moved slightly left of the bolts to step up onto the ledge above the crux. Seems like if I was to the right I would have been on the other route.
Climbing up the face didn't seem 5.10a/b, I used a bunch of the flake on the left. Very fun that way, it will feel difficult if you are strong on the laybacks. My partner said that his legs were worn out from hanging on the flake and sliding up the wall.
Did it again today. New nemesis. Didn't use the left flake holds at all, tried going directly up the bolt line - definitely not 10a/b, at least c. Some holds are now polished and more difficult to use. Going to the right does work, but takes you off the bolt line. Really wondering what the intended route was! I'll keep coming back until my skills allow me to climb straight up the bolt line - totally doable, just not at my skill level yet. Not that I think this is a particularly good route overall. Really interested to try the 10c to the right, it looks fun.
Good stuff.

The Bank of America chief at the time was part of a parade of top international bankers who piled into China in the mid-2000s to announce investments in domestic banks and insurers, touting the prospects of growth and cooperation.
Global financial institutions poured about $33 billion into Chinese banks between 2004 and 2009, according to the website of the Chinese regulator, the China Banking Regulatory Commission.
The deal yielded a tidy profit but little else for Bank of America. The U.S. bank sold down its holding to about 1% as of November 2011.

More quote details and news » some of the biggest names in global finance have been busy unwinding their investments amid tougher new capital rules and a general sense that the deals didn't deliver what they promised: an entry into a lucrative and promising market.
"Banks are stuck with investments that aren't useful strategically," said Derek Ovington, CLSA Asia Pacific's regional head of bank research.
Global firms sold about US$44 billion worth of shares in Asian financial institutions in 2012 to institutional investors or other strategic buyers, up from US$32.7 billion in 2011, according to data provider Dealogic. The retreat is gathering pace as a host of new regulations, including the so-called Basel III capital rules, make holding minority stakes in financial institutions more expensive.
Under the third edition of the Basel accord on international capital standards, if the sum of a bank's minority investments in other financial institutions exceeds 10% of its core capital, then the amount in excess of that threshold must be deducted from its own capital. Also, if the bank owns more than 10% of another financial institution, then up to 100% of the investment could be deducted from its core capital, according to lawyers and bankers.
The latest deal to struggle is one of the biggest, and messiest: HSBC's 15.57% stake in Ping An Insurance (Group) Co. 601318.SH -0.50% Ping An Insurance (Group) Co. of China Ltd.

More quote details and news » The stake was set to be sold to Thai conglomerate Charoen Pokphand Group for $9.39 billion. The deal is now on the rocks as Chinese regulators seek more information amid concerns that other investors are also helping fund the deal, which may be in violation of China's insurance rules.
The HSBC deal is typical of what went wrong with foreign forays into China's financial services. The British bank had hoped that plugging into Ping An's huge networks of agents would boost sales of its wealth-management products to the Chinese, say analysts and people familiar with the deal. However, Ping An's management chafed at being a small part of HSBC's network and worked to offer the same products itself, said a person with knowledge of the integration. For the 10 years it has held a Ping An stake, the U.K. lender has had few initiatives with the insurer.
On the positive side, the sale price for HSBC's Ping An stake is nearly six times what the U.K. bank paid for it. HSBC has raised the carrying value of the stake over the years and said it would book a profit of roughly $2.6 billion. If the deal goes through, HSBC said its core Tier 1 capital ratio will be boosted by half a percentage point, and total capital ratio by a full percentage point.

BNP's head of retail banking in Asia, Philippe Aguignier, said that by investing in a small bank it has more influence, although the French bank has only one director among 13.
Todd Marin, J.P. Morgan & Co.'s Asia-Pacific vice chairman of investment banking, said that the reluctance to divest "may change should euro-zone banks face increased financial pressures, given the economic challenges at home and regulatory requirements for greater capital."
Paget Dare Bryan, a partner at law firm Clifford Chance who advises financial institutions on the implications of forthcoming regulation, said that "banks are looking at their minority stakes and asking themselves, are they really worth it?"
Countries started to phase in Basel III beginning Jan. 1. Even though the U.S. is delaying implementation to study the rules further, U.S. financial companies are subject to stiff annual "stress tests" to prove they can withstand economic hardship as well as beefed-up analysis by credit-rating companies.
"Selling minority shares contributes to improving capital ratios for us and Basel III, so it is a very efficient strategy to pursue, especially if the investments don't contribute much to profitability," said Yuri Yoshida, Standard & Poor's director of financial institutions ratings.

When we conceived of the NT100 our starting point was the simple recognition that around the world digital technologies are being deployed in amazing ways to solve intractable social problems: social exclusion, lack of access to healthcare, education, culture, community; disenfranchisement; abuses of human rights.We were already aware of a pretty sizeable number of inspiring projects but also conscious that for every innovation we had come across, there were probably many more that were unknown to us. We felt that little had been done to build a truly global picture. more >
Our efforts to support more people to become digital makers focusses on an interest in their understanding how digital technologies work. But even with all the great resources available to support young digital makers, what is it that sparks an interest in digital making, and where do you go after that point?

I'm not sure if it's Russell Brand's recent exchange with Paxman or preparations that Nominet Trust is making for the annual Locality conference but I've been thinking a bit about activism – and specifically digital activism - over the last week.Of course, activism is nothing new – people have been involved in petitions, marches, demonstrations and sit-ins for generations. But the tools have changed and we are increasingly seeing people taking action online to bring about change. more >

For centuries, people have used subscription models to build shared assets from small personal contributions. From families buying bricks to build mosques, to the citizen subscriptions that paid for the plinth beneath the feet of the Statue of Liberty, people have banded together to make whatever contribution they can afford towards creating something greater than the sum of their parts. These early examples of crowdfunding demonstrate the age-old desire to improve the collective lot and to achieve great things at a significant scale.
Amongst all of the 'online platforms', 'open APIs', and that massive cloud that holds all our data, you will find me dazed and confused, wandering around in the maze of invisible, intangible technological innovations that somehow now seem to run our collective lives.
For that reason, this NT100 blog is dedicated to the Real, Tangible, Verifiable pieces of technology that are making our lives better and that we've discovered during our searches.
