Note that the previous two comments about the route (carpark and highway) refer to the half marathon course which does sound pretty bad. The full course was OK but not special. There was one stretch through a construction site that was terrible however. Good: 5am starts misses the worst of the heat Good public transportation at start and finish (I recommend getting a hotel walking distance from the start - there are plenty). Nice shirt and medal. Also a finishers shirt at end. Lots of water stops - but there could even be more Bad: HOT AND HUMID - even at 5am. Course just OK - no fan support. All the races meet at the finish. 4-hour marathoners are finishing with people walking the 10k and half. This is NOT GOOD. No food at the finish. In all I agree that this is not a destination race. I live in Singapore but will probably not run it again
Running through an airless carpark, along the edge of a busy highway then having to fight through a wall of walkers/ slow joggers who were finishing the 10km was a nightmare. This is one of the worst courses I have ever run... and I have run a lo of races in a lot of different countries. We can do better than this, Singapore - this country has so much more to offer.... come on!!
I ran this half as a destination race and expected more since the race directors were sending emails saying how great things were going to be on race day. Good-medal, shirt, porto johns, water and med stops, volunteers. Bad Only certain Mrt stations open and taxi lines were an hour long at my hotel Start was horrible and bottlenecked-more then any race I have ever been in. Many bottlenecks during race Too many times to count that walkers were on the course-even within the first few miles and crowded. Ran through parking garage-really! Ok, now we run a few miles on a highway with cars right next to us, fumes and heat. Finish-1 1/2 mile to go and we are merged into a huge crowd of walkers-REALLY, how can we even try to pace. Water and dry granola bar at finish. Wet towels would have been nice. I expected it to be hot, but there was no way to enjoy this race and try to pace. HORRIBLE course and would never recommend to anyone. I really don't think the directors care and have never addressed the issues, but maybe that is the best that Singapore can do.
Running in Singapore is typical of running in tropical locations, so know that from the start. You won't PR. Depending on how you deal with heat, you may be an hour slower than your normal marathon time. On the other hand, so is everyone else, and you may enjoy knowing that a 5-hour finish puts you in the top 20%. The packet pick-up/expo was very well organized and had lots of vendors, and was held in the expo center so very easy to get to via public transport and taxi. Nice sleeveless shirt in a string backpack for schwag and a bunch of ads. Race begins at 5am, but they could be better served by pushing it to 4am like Bangkok and Guam. Nice to get as many miles as possible in before the sun comes up. Adequate drink stations, although more would be better and some were understaffed. More than 17000 people ran in the marathon alone, plus all the other races, so you will be with people the entire race, which includes crowding at the water stops. The initial part of the finish was well organized with medal and finishers shirt pick-up, as well as water and sports drink, but after that, it was chaos. No other food available. Easy to reach start & finish via train, and near to many hotels. The route was nice, the runners friendly, and Singapore is easy for English-speakers to navigate. Many pace teams, and they seemed to do a good job. In short, the race was fine, but nothing particularly special.
Have done the HM a couple times. This year did the FM. The good: -Start is early to avoid morning heat (though it is VERY humid at 5:00AM). It was well organized with a sub-4:00 pen starting right after the elites. -Public transport open 24 hours and taxi availability at finish was good. -Course covers many Singapore landmarks/highlights and runs along the beach. -Decent water/electolyte stops, but probably not enough given the heat/humidity -Expo was well organized. Though don't know how easy it is for runners flying in for the race. The bad: -Way too many runners and races going at the same time. The FM merged with the 10K (90 minutes in) with 3K remaining. So anyone shooting for a good time needs to deal with a massive wall of slow runners/walkers near the end. I'm all for participation by all, but they need to figure out a better way to space these out. -Trying to make SCSM into a 'gold elite' marathon is misguided. Having 25 Kenyans and Ethiopians finish 20 minutes in front of everyone else, pick up their oversized cheques and go home doesn't seem to add much to most runner's experience. -There are few spectators along the course (but race starts at 5AM so...). There were a few intrepid drum bands and other fans which were great. -The end is a zoo. Apparently, they ran out of finisher T-shirts in normal sizes pretty quickly though I managed to snag one. Runners were pissed! (check out the 100s of negative comments on FB) -Distance markers were spotty towards the end -Most frustrating is that these comments seem to be made every year and simply disregarded by the organizers. Do this race if you're in the region. Because of the weather (93% humidity at the start and 28 C at the finish), times will suffer. But its an overall good experience with tons of friendly runners.
Agree with some of the comments. Great course, full marathon could benefit from having course more through nice city areas/Sentosa. Problem is indeed the merge with the back-end of half marathoners which honestly is disappointing and slows things down significantly. Organizer should really pay attention to that. Finish area overcrowded and refreshment/drinks could really improve. Plenty and well organized water stations and isotonic throughout the course. Concerns have been raised before and I wonder why those changes are not considered. It would improve the marathon both for runners and supporters at the finish significantly-and be even more attractive. Great potential !
I picked this race for my 50th marathon and it was my slowest because of the heat/humidity and overcrowding. I would give the course 5 stars if it had less runners and the other races did merge with the marathon. The flow slowed down to a jog many times in the first 6 mi and other points later. Having the 1/2 marathon merge with 3-4 mi to go created more congestion at a time you really don't need it. Be prepared for a hot, humid race(75 with 100% humidity at the start and mid 80s by 0900) and dodging 1/2 marathon walkers late in the race. The support after the finish is abysmal. I finished 3900 out of 15000 and they only had XXXL finisher shirts left. I got 1 bottle of water, 1 can of sports drink and a granola bar, that was it. If there was more food/drink available, it was impossible to find because the sea of humanity milling about. Singapore is a beautiful city and the course shows you much of it. The race would be much better if they limited the runners or had a rolling start like the rock n roll marathon series and completely separated the other races from the marathon. Need to fix the support at the end as well. Not many fans along the course but I don't really care about that.
It was my first-ever marathon and I enjoyed it! This certainly wouldn't be the last. I thought that, as a beginner, I'd be the worst among the women in the 10K. But to my surprise, before the 1K mark, some ladies had started walking. And I said to myself, "I wasn't that bad after all." I'm looking forward to the SCSM 2010 this year. The race kit was nice.
For anyone wishing to combine their running with a short break, this is a fantastic destination. Well organized event from registration right through to the end of the race - very friendly and helpful volunteers. The course is flat and takes you past many of Singapore's major attractions before heading out/back along the parks lining the foreshore. Plenty of shade, frequent aid stations and heaps of spectators to give you a lift. There was a bit of convergence in the latter stages with the other events, but it didn't affect my time. The course was 3-4 lanes wide, so passing (or being passed) wasn't an issue. The last couple of kilometers take you past the Singapore Flyer and the Formulae 1 pit straight, offering a welcome distraction in the final stages. Plenty of good quality and affordable accommodation within walking distance of the start/finish line. Highly recommend this event.
Generally, this was a well organized event, and the course is well setup and adapts to the climate well by offering plenty of shade in the 10-30 KM section, which was great. Extremely flat. Self seeding at start was far better then I had expected. Merging of the 10K, half and marathon groups needs to be addressed. For marathoners in the 3:15-3:30 range, it was frustrating to lose momentum twice. First, when meeting the mid-to-back-of-the-pack half-marathon group at about the 32K mark (for 2K before splitting off) and then again at about the 39K mark meeting the half runners and the 90-minute group of the 10K runners. I am all for the partipation of everyone in these associated events, and the congestion is not the fault of those runners, but the organizer needs to find a medium where all participants are satisfied. Even from a safety perspective, I don't think it makes sense to require exhausted marathon runners at 40K mark to have to duck an weave through 9-minute-per-kilometer pace 10K runners/walkers to maintain their pace. However, it was still a good event overall, and I would go back, but I really hope they find a solution to the merge issue.

Palmyra and rural Marion County fire crews spent Monday night fighting a large outdoor fire west of Palmyra, Missouri. The Palmyra Fire Department received a call shortly after 6 p.m. that a barn full of 394 bales of hay caught fire. The structure off County Road 230 was fully engulfed by the time crews arrived. Firefighters first tried to put out a grass fire that had spread to the acre surrounding the barn. "I talked with one of the land owners, and we're thinking it might've been a lightening strike that happened Friday morning, and it just took it this long to smolder or combust," Palmyra Fire Capt. Ron Kraft said. Missouri is ranked as the top state in the nation with outdoor fire risk due to the continued drought and extreme heat that has recently taken hold of the Show-Me state.

This Week in Food: Twitter, Trader Joe's Wine, and the Secret Behind Sriracha
As Smithsonian staffers rush to close our July issue, here are a few helpful links to get you through your day:
– The Internet Food Association, written by a coterie of D.C. think tank policy nerds who moonlight as foodies, directs us to a great new blog, Trader Joe's Wine Compendium, which I highly recommend you check out before playing Russian roulette with the grocery store's wide-ranging wine selection.
– My favorite hot sauce, Sriracha Chili Sauce, gets a lengthy treatment in Tuesday's New York Times. Who knew it was not Thai or Vietnamese, but actually Californian? I remember being rather excited when I saw one of the Iron Chefs use it on Iron Chef America, but now that Applebee's and P.F. Chang's use it in their recipes, some of the allure has worn off. It's still delicious for pretty much everything, however. Reporter John T. Edge also provides a nation-wide list of restaurants where chefs use David Tran's sriracha.
– Also from the Times comes this obituary of the namesake behind Dannon yogurt, Daniel Carasso. Learn the history of the company, which was started by Carasso's father in response to what he found to be the disturbing prevalence of intestinal disorders in Spain. From the article: "Early on, Danone [the original name for the yogurt] was marketed as a health food and sold by prescription through pharmacies. Gradually it found favor as a milk product that did not spoil in the heat.
– From Serious Eats, comes a helpful list of street vendors that use Twitter. And while I'm at it, make sure to follow Food and Think on Twitter as well.
– Amateur Gourmet brought in FaT favorite Michael Ruhlman today for a BlogTalkRadio podcast. Listen in, maybe while baking Ruhlman's bread.
– And lastly, the New Orleans Audubon Insectarium opened recently and is entertaining kids of all ages with crickets, spiders, and more. But what you can't get there is a cooking demonstration using crickets.

The Zuckerberg Files: Getting schooled on Facebook's CEO
When Mark Zuckerberg speaks, everyone listens. Not just because he happens to run the world's largest social network, but also because he has a tendency to let slip some of his personal philosophy on privacy, connection, and sharing at an ever-increasing pace.
That's why scholars at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee are listening to and recording everything he says and archiving it in The Zuckerberg Files, an online repository of the Facebook CEO's every public utterance.

text: Home Politics HIV / AIDS Trials: No Place for Black Women? African-American women are routinely left out of clinical studies that could lead to new treatments. By: Sheree Crute Posted: April 5 2012 12:12 AM 0 Barbara Joseph Medical breakthroughs in curing sickle-cell anemia and treating prostate cancer and HIV/AIDS may dramatically improve life for the millions of people struggling with these diseases, but there are significant barriers that may keep African Americans from receiving this new, high-quality care. This article is the third and last in a series about how health care costs, policies and even the structure of the health care system may increase, rather than decrease, the health disparities we face. To read other articles in the series, click here. Barbara Joseph is smart and resourceful and has advocated so successfully for African-American women living with HIV/AIDS in Texas that a clinic in Houston bears her name. That's why it's all the more surprising that Joseph faces barriers to obtaining treatment and participating in a clinical trial -- an act that might improve her health and teach scientists more about black women and HIV/AIDS. An HIV/AIDS activist for 20 years, who has been living with the disease just as long, Joseph is also executive director of Positive Efforts, an organization that provides information on HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment for black women. Yet when asked if her organization had been approached about getting black women into clinical trials investigating cutting-edge HIV/AIDS treatments, Joseph said no. According to the nation's leading advocates for black women living with the disease, there's nothing unusual about that. "Part of the argument for not making a greater effort to include women in research, until now, has been that prevalence rates among women were too low to justify a large focus on them," says Dázon Dixon Diallo, founder and director of Sister Love in Atlanta, one of the oldest and largest organizations for women living with HIV/AIDS. "But we now have the research to prove that we need to be included," Dixon Diallo adds. She is referring to ISIS (Women's HIV Seroincidence Study), released on March 8. ISIS researchers found that the rate of HIV/AIDS infection among black women living in Baltimore; Atlanta; Raleigh-Durham, N.C.; Washington, D.C.; Newark, N.J.; and New York City was five times higher than the rate previously reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "Part of the problem," Dixon Diallo says, "is also that the AIDS community is still a male-dominated culture. That's one reason we formed 30 for 30, a coalition of women's organizations working to ensure that at least 30 percent of the resources spent on HIIV/AIDS in the United States are spent on women -- as we represent nearly 30 percent of the epidemic. But in terms of getting women into advanced research at elite academic institutions, we know a lot less about these small, early trials. That should say something about the process." Joseph says black women also aren't being considered for new studies exploring the use of personalized medicine, through gene therapy, which makes it possible for the body to fight HIV/AIDS without antiviral drugs. This research is funded -- at least in part -- by federal dollars. "I am also a co-chair of the National Black Women's HIV/AIDS Network. We educate women about research, but no one has reached out to the network to invite black women to participate in these trials," Joseph says. Seeking a Breakthrough While current antiviral medications represent a great leap forward in HIV/AIDS treatment and have dramatically lengthened the lifespan for many, the much-touted single pill therapy is expensive -- "nearly $3,000 a month, in my case," Joseph says. Drug side effects may include heart disease, kidney disease and osteoporosis, especially as people age with HIV/AIDS. And while some states -- such as Illinois -- have solid safety nets for people needing HIV/AIDS medication, others do not. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

Avalon Ambassador 27: Pontoon Boat Goes Art Deco
Can a pontoon boat have retro looks and modern performance? Avalon says yes.
Most boat strive to look modern, sleek, or luxurious, and a few others try to go retro, but the Avalon Ambassador 27 is the first boat we've come across—pontoon or otherwise—which has an art deco attitude. With just one glance you know this boat is anything but common, with its curvaceous and tower-like solid aluminum sidewalls, mood lighting (even the cup holders emit multi-color illumination) and chrome accents. But the coup de grace is the stainless-steel grillwork, in the bow and sidewalls.
A retro look may be appealing, but retro construction is not. Fortunately, the Ambassador is built for the modern era. It has three-inch C-channel cross-beams, stainless-steel corner casings, and fiberglass helm and entertainment modules. Decking is faux-teak. Furniture features Matrix 50 heavy-duty 50-gauge upholstery with herring-bone stitching, and this stuff feels both plush and rugged to the touch. But touching it isn't enough—you'll want to kick back in one of the two rear loungers to test out its comfy-factor. When I did, I discovered that at the press of a button it reclined from sitting position into maximum relaxation mode. The helm seat also reclines, and has self-leveling arm rests.
One big difference you'll find between the Avalon's furniture and that on other pontoon boats is the frame structure. Cheap pontoons have stick-built bases of plywood and better boats have polyethylene seat bases, but Avalon builds them out of aluminum. Just how big a difference does this make? The structure's lifetime should essentially be unlimited, and Avalon has the confidence to back it up. They offer a five year stem-to-stern warranty, a rarity among boat-builders, as well as a lifetime warranty on the flooring, pontoon welds, and those hefty seat frames.
Over-the-top construction and luxury doesn't stop with the furniture. The cockpit table is smoked glass, and has wine glass holders. There's a standard Jensen four-speaker stereo system with one GB of storage and a memory stick. And the entertainment center has a refrigerator/freezer with stainless-steel racks, along with an electric—yes, electric—winerack with cupholders, which rises out of the Corian solid-surface counter top at the touch of a button.
What's the point in going deco, if you don't have the sass to match the flash? There isn't one. So Avalon designed the Ambassador to be a true high-performance pontoon, with triple 25" pontoons and their "Waveglider" design, which consists of one-piece 0.10" aluminum nose-cones, lifting strakes, and aluminum shields which deflect water away from the boat. Pack on the maximum 300 horses, and you'll blast off to speeds in the 50-mph range. Of course, this kind of fun doesn't come cheap; outfit a base Ambassador 27 with that 300-hp powerplant, and you'll also be spending about $80,000.
Put together the looks, construction, and comfort, and there's no doubt the Avalon Ambassador is a one-of-a-kind creation. In fact, the boat's so impressive that the judges of the 2012 NMMA Innovations Awards named it the best new pontoon boat of the year in a unanimous vote. It is, in truth, a work of art—art deco, that is.

Book Review - Lou Scheimer: Creating the Filmation Generation
This history of Filmation Associates is an animation studio history with a difference. Most are objective histories, well documented and footnoted, by animation historians who were not personally associated with the studios. Creating the Filmation Generation is by Lou Scheimer, who co-founded Filmation and was its president for the twenty-six years of its existence. Also, it is a detailed anecdotal reminisce rather than a detailed academic history. Nevertheless, it is engrossing reading with lots of details and publicity graphics. It will satisfy all but the most demanding of animation historians.
Actually, it is Lou Scheimer's autobiography. Most people probably won't be interested in Lou Scheimer's autobiography, but if Walt Disney, Chuck Jones, and other animation luminaries can have their whole lives documented, it is good that there is at least one book that covers Lou Scheimer's origins. His earliest claim to fame was vicarious. In 1921 or '22 his father, who was a World War I war hero and Jewish activist in Germany at the time, punched Adolf Hitler unconscious during one of Hitler's earliest racist beer hall diatribes in Würzburg. Hitler set his Nazi street thug bodyguards looking for Salomon Gundersheimer, who prudently immigrated to America.
Scheimer was born in Pittsburgh on October 19, 1928; joined the Army in 1946 and was honorably discharged in 1948; entered Carnegie Tech to study art; got married in 1953; and moved in 1955 with his wife Jay to Hollywood to get a job painting backgrounds in the animation industry. Scheimer's first job was at the Kling Studio, a little commercial art company in the former Charlie Chaplin Studio. Scheimer's art desk was in what had been Chaplin's personal bedroom. From Kling, Scheimer went to work at Warner Bros. Animation, then after a few months moved on to the new Hanna-Barbara Studio. In 1957 Larry Harmon bought the rights to Bozo the Clown and hired Scheimer among other animators to produce a series of TV cartoons around him. It was while working for Harmon that Scheimer met Hal Sutherland, his longtime Filmation partner, and others who became the original Filmation staff. In 1960 Harmon closed his animation department and Scheimer went to work at a tiny studio, True Line, where Sutherland was already working. A couple of years later True Line got a contract to produce a TV cartoon called Rod Rocket. True Line could not handle the job, but Scheimer and Sutherland thought that they could, so they incorporated as Filmation Associates in 1962 and took over the series. Three years after that, Rod Rocket was finished and they could not get any TV animated commercial jobs. They were packing up, set to go out of business when they got a telephone call from DC Comics in NYC asking if they could produce a Superman cartoon series for CBS' new Saturday morning Children's TV lineup. And that is how Filmation became "the king of Saturday morning TV cartoons", as they have been called.
"I got a phone call from Norm [Prescott, the third Filmation partner], and he said, 'Lou, do you think we could do this series ourselves?' I said, 'How much are they offering?' He said, '$36,000 a half hour.' Well, I knew then that Hanna-Barbera was getting about $45,000 a half-hour for animation. I said, 'Sure, we can do it. What the hell? We're out of work anyway. …' I had no idea what we could do it for, but I knew that was better than we were getting." (p. 45)
Year by year, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968 … to 1986, 1987, 1988. Superman and Batman and Aquaman and lots of other costumed superheroes. Archie, The Groovy Goolies, the animated Star Trek, Fat Albert, Will the Real Jerry Lewis Please Sit Down, The Brady Kids, The Lone Ranger and Lassie and Tarzan and Flash Gordon and Zorro, The Secret Lives of Waldo Kitty, Blackstar and BraveStarr, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Gilligan's Planet. A tremendous list of shows. Filmation's live-action TV series, and the studio's foray into theatrical animation features. The many colorful Filmation staff members. A few risqué incidents: "Waldo Kitty was a good idea. […] It started out live-action with a cat and his girlfriend – Waldo and Felicia – and a big bulldog named Tyrone that was always after them. When Waldo would get into real trouble, and the bulldog got close to him, Waldo would imagine himself turning into one of the characters that he liked from television. […] The live-action segments were mostly filmed in and around a yard and a house, and we had to work with real animals. The cats were fine, but the problem was with the damn English bulldog. We were usually shooting him from the back because he was chasing the cat and all you could see were giant testicles! Every time he turned around, these monster balls were hanging down there, swinging back and forth. […]" (p. 118)
I grew up on Filmation's programs, especially Fat Albert & the Cosby Kids, Tarzan Lord of the Jungle, Mighty Mouse and Heckle & Jeckle, Tom & Jerry Comedy Show, Flash Gordon, Sport Billy, Gilligan's Planet, He-Man & the Masters of the Universe and She-Ra Princess of Power. As fans, we can't thank Lou Scheimer for giving us years of memorable animated entertainment. Nowadays, DreamWorks Animation has picked up where Filmation, Entertainment Rights and Classic Media left off, but is in need of more original ideas for TV animation, where it needs to shift its focus. Now, if DreamWorks president, Jeffrey Katzenberg can bring in Erika Scheimer as a creative consultant in the animation dept., that could take DreamWorks Animation to where it can go as an animation studio. This is imperative, because with its success in feature films and also with the upcoming Croods, being co-distributed by 20th Century Fox, DreamWorks Animation has a chance of being a major player in TV animation in the 2010's.
Great work. My 10 month old son and I like watching this clip. I fogort how much of a Flash Gordon fan I was. I remember reading the old comic strip and watching the old serials with Buster Crabbe on Channel 50. The kids nowadays don't realize what they are missing. (IMHO)
Queen and Flash Gordon; I remember the movie Flash Gordon, and it was good for its day. Flash Gordon and Ming The Merciless has some mtgyolohy problems, thus we see a lot of flash in gadgets, gizmos, and apparently some magic make their appearance in the Flash Gordon ideas. Ming the Merciless has come to represent the figurehead of the Beast of Society, that only consumes, pleasures itself, and Ruler of the Universe.
All "Eighties babies" that grew up on "Saturday morning cartoons" need this book. For the sole purpose of teaching today's generation...

Troxo Christmas Party
We threw a glam Christmas party on Friday at The Regent club in Nis to mark that magical time of year, one of our all-time favs.
The party kicked off at 7.30 pm. A local band was playing well pretty much everything we wanted to hear. We had a lot of guests attending the party as our friends joined too.
It was great fun chatting, dancing, singing and drinking wine till the small hours. A nice way to end 2007. Below is a happy snap. We'd rather not cram all the photos here, so check out the rest on Flickr.
Have a good break and once again, happy holidays from all of us at Troxo! Stay merry!
Update: We've renamed some parts of this post, more precisely the headline from "Troxo New Year Party" to "Troxo Christmas Party". What we actually had is a party that we organize in Serbia to mark New Year, the event widely referred to as Christmas party in other countries.

Wed, Aug 21, 2013 Bakes perfectly We bought this to replace the 19 year old appliance in our new house. I have never had a wall oven before and wasn't thrilled with having to replace the old one but now I am glad I did. It looks wonderful, very clean lines and modern looking. The installer told me to run the oven and the broiler for a few minutes before using so that's what I did. After that I had to try it out to see how well it worked so I whipped up a batch of cookies as a trial run. The cookies turned out perfectly! Nice and brown, even baking and no signs of maladjusted oven. So far so good, I can't wait for Thanksgiving to roll around to give it a thorough workout. Was this helpful?

Fri, Jun 7, 2013 Great unit - oven cooks faster than normal This unit replaced a 15 year old model of another brand that was with the home when we purchased it. Our home-owners insurance chose the model for us, but we paid a little more to upgrade to the chrome exterior. We had to alter the existing cabinet with a filler board due to the new unit being slightley smaller than the old unit. This is an easy to operate model, but I wish we had gotten the convection variety. Be aware that the oven cooks faster than most other ovens I have operated (probably about 20 over the years). Start on the underside of recommended cooking times until you are used to it, otherwise you will have lots of burned food! Was this helpful?

After extensive study we selected the GE combination wall oven/microwave. It arrived in excellent shape and took only about 1 hour to install. Some alteration of the existing cabinet had to be made because the new unit was not as tall as the old unit. A filler board was installed to close the open area below the unit.

So much room and so quiet. I would recommend this product to a friend. Was this helpful? Yes No Flag gbwong168 Mountlake Terrace, WA 1 of 1 people found this review helpful. Mon, Nov 18, 2013 A French-Door Refrigerator for a 30" space finanlly I researched French doors and bottom freezer for kitchen. I need a specific size and wanted most of the features this fridge offered. I like the new style with all the bells and whistles along with the Kenmore reliability and great reputation. The salesperson was helpful and knowledgeable about the fridge. I told him what I looked and he researched all out requirements and was very helpful of his line of refrigerators to choose from. We needed a small refrigerator for our small kitchen. The only drawback is that there is no ice on the door. But good enough and I am really happy with my new fridge I would recommend this product to a friend. The reviewer indicated they are affiliated with this product. Was this helpful?

Wed, Aug 7, 2013 French door fridge With the limited amount of space I have I never would have thought that I would be able to accomadate a refrigator of this caliber. From top to bottom this appliance is an absolute dream machine. I would recommend this product to a friend. Was this helpful? Yes No Flag mouse88 Cincinnati, OH 19 of 19 people found this review helpful. Wed, Jan 23, 2013 French Door Refrigerator/Bottom Freezer Looks Great In Our Kitchen Really well made, great fit and finish, quiet and looks great. Energy Star with LED lighting. No ice dispensor on the door just cold water. Ice maker is in the bottom freezer. We love the two French doors that allow total access to the refrigerated area. If doors are open too long a chime is sounder - very nice feature. We also like the temperature of the inside of the refrigerator and freezer being shown on the outside of the refrigerator front door. This refrigerator replaced a 20 year old, still running, Kitchen-Aid side-by-side. I would recommend this product to a friend. Was this helpful? Yes No Flag Shoerhino Saint Paul, MN 25 of 25 people found this review helpful. Thu, Jan 3, 2013 Great Refrigerator for small spaces If you are looking for modern refrigerator features in a small (30 inch wide) unit, this is a great choice. I have a small space for a refrigerator but wanted something with the water in the door and also liked the bottom freezer units. There were only two refrigerators in my area that could fit the bill and this one appeared to be the best. The drawers have nice rollers on them, making them easy to pull in and out. All of the shelves and trays in the door are adjustable and the inside is lit by LED lighting. The other unit I looked at had very poor drawers and the shelves were limited in adjustability. I heard that this unit is made by LG and if you look at the LG models, there are some similarities. I've had Kenmore appliances before and was always pleased with the quality and longevity so hopefully I'll be enjoying my refrigerator for years to come. I would recommend this product to a friend.

Adapting to cooking using convection/combo part of the unit has been a bit of a challenge. Would like to see better instructions or guidance in using this feature in the owner's manual. Including a small microwave/convection cook book would be a plus. The functions we use a lot, like reheat, are very convenient and the programmed defaults ( a slice of pizza, for example) work very well. Not a bad price for a unit with a so many features.

Airbus believes that formation flying could potentially happen on high-frequency routes from 2050 onwards.
In its latest vision for sustainable aviation, the plane manufacturer also said that shorter flights would save fuel and dramatically reduce CO2 emissions.
It stated that by the middle of the 21st century, flights in Europe and the USA could be an average of 13 minutes shorter, saving around nine million tonnes of fuel each year.
Shorter journey times, which could be achieved by the optimisation of air traffic management and on-board technology systems, would lead to the annual saving of more than 28 million tonnes of avoidable CO2 emissions a year as well as the saving of five million flying hours.
Airbus also envisages planes free-gliding on their approach into airports to reduce emissions and reduce noise, and aircrafts climbing more steeply on take-off to minimise noise and allow for shorter runways.
In addition, the company imagines an increase in the use of sustainable biofuels and other potential energy sources such as electricity, hydrogen and solar power, plus highly intelligent aircraft which are able to "self-organise" and select the most efficient and environmentally friendly routes.
It would also like to see passengers reaching terminals faster, so travellers at airports such as Stansted and Luton can get to their destinations in a speedier and more relaxed manner.

Ever wish you could have the makeup artists from backstage at Fashion Week doing your makeup? Allure has the next best thing with these foundation tips straight from the pros.
Foundation can do wonders to mask some of our biggest skin issues, but successfully blurring the lines isn't always as fun as Robin Thicke makes it sound. When your complexion is spackled with redness, uneven skin tone, scars, and dark spots, it's easy to forget that you don't actually need a mound of coverage to hide it all. In fact, getting a base that looks natural starts before you even dip into your makeup bag: exfoliate first, then moisturize. "I massage moisturizer into the skin and really get the blood flowing," says makeup artist Pat McGrath. Here are more tricks from the pros on the ins and outs of applying every type of foundation.

But it could mean -- so called.
That suggests going on line for professional medical treatment may be a whole lot cheaper and jobs.
As effective is going to see that -- in person plus.
The whole lot more convenient for the patient.
And more Americans apparently agreed because more of them are making -- visits but.
Says the right direction for health care in America joining us now doctor -- -- he's -- -- position of emergency medicine.
At saint -- -- hospital in and the Barack's so virtual medicine and basically rendering a whole new round.
Even as it's a good idea good direction.
-- an exciting -- time -- it really is this allows the patients communicate with to what the doctor directly you know via the computer.
From their home from the pricing come for their own home during times like say a flu epidemic like we are now.
It would be a great way to keep patients who -- that bill out of the hospital out of the doctor's office where they could potentially spread viruses.
But you know being a physician were taught always to look listen and feel right as part of -- -- history and physical taking.
And you know we use our tools we use our lights and everything and restful more blood pressure blood pressure -- and all these great items that we used.
There is technology right now that's allowing this to be done from the home and transmitted to the physician.
They use video conferencing and Skyping -- can actually see the patient in the military use they actually use that to have specialists view.
Soldiers that are injured.
Close to the front lines where they can't evacuate the -- -- so it's very exciting it's very good.
But it's still in year old so there's some instances that where this would definitely not be a good idea.
Sure but because many times you may miss the subtle physical exam findings that you're gonna get from examining a patient looking at them and listening to them talking to them.
And touching them you might miss something more critical that's wrong with them hasn't developed so -- doctor might actually be a little bit more conservative.
Then had he actually in person.
Examine the pitch at that's exactly what they brought out in the research that we looked at -- times that more and a -- prescribed.
And the doctor takes a more conservative approach.
That can lead to you know antibiotic side effects increasing cost and -- things like that you know and and and patients getting immune to the benefits of the antibiotics on the road but one of the benefits you mentioned cost would be that easy visits would cost less.
They do according to the the study that we looked at they definitely cost less.
But for certain non.
A life threatening conditions like sinus infections urinary tract infections that can be if -- early and nipped in the bud you know.
Would would be -- I would think especially in rural areas where there's a great distance sometimes that a patient -- to travel to see a doctor may have to wait a long time.
The you could actually be examined if you're Skyping with a doctor a little bit more quickly a lot more quick.
Def definitely -- there are benefits that definitely our hospital.
Has a video conferencing capability where we can actually show burn patients to a burn center.
If we get answers that injured burn -- you can look at the burn patients think he needs to go to the burn center and actually show the picture of here shape.
To the referring facility yes we have NASA vacant prepped for the arrival of the burn patients.
Oh wow and this is used -- between facilities and when you're reading like radiology MRI reports and things like that you think you -- -- facility they read it at another.
So it is happening.
Definitely it is happening but we we have to use a little bit of caution too because we don't want the patients to think -- You know it's a substitute -- have to go for their normal physical in their yearly evaluations these are things that prevent problems from occurring.
And it's very important that patients don't get complacent and say -- -- just Skype my doctor wanna have a problem.
You need to going regularly to pick things up early on they could now put MRIs and X rays and a little CD.
-- where they can send it via computer without even having a CD from one doctor rather it's incredible technology to his own little chance we'll jump right.
Doctor Ernie -- -- part of this hospital in Nebraska to sing it great to see things -- and I'm -- very.
