Is there a link somewhere to the Pfitz stretches - perhaps a good routine to start for the new year.
Just started the Pfitz stretches myself, but I don't have a swiss ball....thank goodness.
obviously not a real runner. . . . what kind of moron wears bunched up cotton socks like that? you DID notice the cotton socks didn't you??
obviously not a real runner. . . . what kind of moron wears bunched up cotton socks like that?
Rofl, I do!
Maybe not THAT long and bunched up though.
Those are the same 1980's era socks that Hooters waitresses still wear.
I wear socks like that every day - < $1 per pair. Once upon a time I wore them for 150+ miles straight in a 24 hour race - 1 pair of socks for all 24 hours. No blisters, no hot spots ... same pair of shoes also. As long as they are not bunched up in the shoe area.
I won 12 pair of drymax socks in a contest - I guess they were nice, but I go 4-6 runs out of a $10-$20 pair of socks. So I guess I am the cheap moron who wears cotton socks ... But to me all of you have been brain washed into pampering your feet and have gotten soft.

I don't believe so. They're new in the 2nd edition of Advanced Marathoning. I do them twice / week (skipping the swiss ball stretches, fortunately), along with Pfitz's strength exercises twice / week and core exercises thrice / week.

Egypt's democracy is in peril
Unofficial results indicate that the Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohamed Morsi is to become the first democratically elected president in the history of Egypt, with more than 52 percent of the votes against his rival, the former military commander and a remnant of Mubarak's regime, Ahmed Shafiq.
However, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) has already expanded its tentacles to make the seat of the presidency a shell with no real powers. A few days before the presidential election, SCAF dismantled the democratically elected parliament as a preventive measure in case the Muslim Brotherhood candidate won the election. SCAF then moved to solidify its grip on legislative power and the national budget, and appointed a panel of its own cronies to draft a new Constitution. These measures are of great concern to the Egyptian people and Western countries who do not wish the fragile democratic experience to be torpedoed by the military establishment. SCAF was not really there to save the revolution as some observers indicated. The alliance of the military, the security services and the cronies of the old regime all joined hands from the beginning to thwart the revolution, resuscitate the old order and give it a new face. SCAF not only dismantled a democratically elected parliament, but refuses to grant real powers to the elected president, and thus opens a new front with the opposition and the Egyptian people who rose to the streets in January 2011, to face the killing machine of the former dictator Hosni Mubarak in Tahrir Square. The fear of the Muslim Brotherhood is exaggerated, and their influence in Egyptian society is limited, and thus the parliament as well as the presidency will not be able to operate without reaching out to the rest of the Egyptian opposition. Thus, SCAF cannot use the examples of Libya or Syria to mask its real intentions, which are derailing the democratic process in Egypt, and preparing for a total coup d'etat. The regional tensions have played a significant role in thwarting the democratic process in Egypt. Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, especially Saudi Arabia, have expressed great concern about the Muslim Brotherhood, which they consider a destabilizing factor, and a movement that is more theocratic than it really appears. Thus, economic and financial pressures have been exerted against the government to take action and prevent the Muslim Brotherhood from consolidating their power on the Egyptian state as conditions to access to financial assistance, credit and GCC markets. The United States and Western Europe prefer continuity in the democratic process. The question remains as to what the Egyptians will do regarding the obstinate view of the military junta that does not seem to understand that times are different and that the military belongs in the barracks.

Hardest marriage vows to keep
Posted at: 01/04/2013 6:52 AM
Some wedding vows are easier to live by than others according to a new poll published by Vanity Fair.
Men and women were asked which vows were the most challenging. "To be faithful" was the hardest vow for men. One out of three said they struggled to keep that one followed by "for better or worse" then "for richer and poorer."
As for women, "for better or worse" was chosen as the toughest vow to keep with 32-percent of the vote followed by "to be faithful" then "in sickness and in health."

From now until the end of the season, the most sporting crew, driver or co-driver on each WRC Academy event will be handed the prestigious accolade.
Following the rain-hit season-opening Vodafone Rally de Portugal in late March, brother and sister pairing Brendan Reeves and Rhianon Smyth have been confirmed as the inaugural award winners.
They were acknowledged for coming to the aid of Yazeed Al-Rajhi and Michael Orr when the Super 2000 World Rally Championship crew became stranded in a swollen river crossing on a road section.
"The conditions in Portugal were pretty treacherous and it could have been any one of us who became stranded," said Reeves. "We all aided as much as we could but, unfortunately, we were still unable to move the beached Fiesta. The attention the photo of our Fiesta pulling Yazeed's car out of the river received was incredible. This was something that I never expected to be doing in a WRC event, but I guess that is why it is one of the toughest championships in the world."
Smyth added: "Helping out others is something Brendo and I both find important and we hope that if we ever needed help, the same would be done for us."
Ford Racing in Europe and control tyre supplier Pirelli support the WRC Academy, which resumes on the Acropolis Rally in Greece later this month.

iMovie 3.03!
Thank Jobs.
You see, Funktron, Jobs is watching. Always.
I JUST finished editing this hellish movie of mine. I'll post it. Its cute. You all have surely seen those KILLER food recipe photos on the front of those ladies'/homemakers' magazines at the supermarket checkout? You know, the ones you look at and think, "Yeah. AS IF that'll ever happen!?" Well, TWO YEARS AGO my wife did one...
and I finally got around to editing the damned thing together so I can get the raw footage off my drive!
I'm going to export the final cut in 3.02, first!! NO WAY am I gonna chance the project getting screwed by some bug in 3.03! I would KILL MYSELF!! So, I'll finish this job, and THEN upgrade, AND THEN let 3.03 try playing through the project and just see what happens. In 3.02, iMovie would crash EVERY TIME I got to a sequence of sped up clips. Judging by the 3.03 readme, it may have been fixed. I'll let y'all know. Originally posted by MacDuff

When he came in....I immediately thought of Ellen Feiss (had to think a bit to come up with that name...I'm guessing her 15 minutes of fame has been used up) "beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.....it ATE my paper"
A few posts back (well...around 6500 posts back or so) we were all discussing the "intuitiveness" of Mac OS. Well, one of the secretaries somehow made her Start Menu Tool Bar/System Tray move to the left side of her screen. She couldn't get it back to the bottom where it started. Well, I had read right here on this message board where you left click and drag it to the place you want it. I told her to do this. (She had called me over the intercom and I gave her the instructions back over the intercom). Twenty minutes later...she calls me back telling me she couldn't get it to move. So I go down to the office and try to do it myself. I left clicked and drag....and the thing wouldn't budge. Several more tries...right clicking...left clicking double clicking combo clicking (did I ever say how much I hate multi-button mice?) and the thing wouldn't budge. I felt like an idiot.
What I didn't know was that those wise programmers over at the Windows R&D Department didn't think that it would be helpful to actually show it moving along with your mouse to demonstrate to the user that it was actually being moved. The Start menu wouldn't actually move until AFTER your mouse had traversed the whole distance of the screen to the bottom of the screen....and then it really didn't show movement at all....it just jumped....or appeared there.
So...over half an hour wasted between two people just to move the freakin' Start Menu back to the bottom of the screen when it could have been...and should have been so much easier. 2003: The Summer of Macintosh

Hi everyone, Im planning to start surfing soon, and was wanted some advice on full body wetsuits, ive done quite a bit of research and have decided that i wanted to pay about 200-250 for a decent one instead of a cheapie.
but the problem now is, ive been losing weight for the past 8 months, originally i was over 300 but now im at 245. And i plan to continue to lose weight till about 180-200. my questions is about if i buy a wetsuit, would i have to get a new one after i lose the weight?
ive heard that the newer suits have an incredible expansion and stretch, would that work for me? im hoping i dont have to spend another 200-250 anytime soon because of my weight loss. Would it be a better idea to get a cheap one for now (under $100) and get the nice one after?
Also, if the new suits WOULD work, which ones would you recommend? any particular brand or style i should look into?
Id appreciate all and any advice/comments,

As I was reading today, it seems the expectation that interest rates are down and might be down for a substantial time is still front and centre. As I rambled around the Internet on my morning exploration I was revisited by the reality of what these low rates will do to the markets and the investors who rely on this interest income.
Simply put, not many people can survive on 2.5% and they will be forced to pursue other solutions. This will most likely lead to higher stock prices as investors chase growth and dividends. How long this will stay in a positive trend is anyone's guess. When this next stage of the market drops and a possible second wave of the chaos (similar to 2008-9) presents itself, what will people do?
I sometimes jest with clients, when they say they want to buy gold, "be sure and buy coins as you might find it difficult to cut up a gold bar to buy that loaf of bread." I usually follow up with advice that they might be better served owning corn seed and water stores if they truly feel a full economic collapse is imminent.
After today's reading and Internet exploration I have a different solution for the end of days. Go out and buy a Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printer and put a solar panel on your roof. Really. Have a look at a video on YouTube (search "National Geographic Known Universe S03E06 Print Tools"). Star Trek is here.
I was amazed to see a printer/machine create a 3D object from a digital model. The printer works on what is called an "additive process." The printer lays down successive layers on a platform until the object takes shape. The one in the video above uses a form of composite powder combined with a binding agent to create a crescent wrench that you can use. MakerBot can sell you a Replicator 2 printer for around $2,400
So now that you can make anything you need in your basement you just need to ensure a source of power and that could easily be a solar panel on your roof. When I renovated my house a few years back I made some quick inquiries into creating my own power grid. It was hard to find anyone who could do it and it was expensive. My best guess based on that homework and what I read today was that you could be looking at around $40,000 to install panels that would run everything in your house. But just think of no more electric bills
I think we should be safe for the next few years in the diversified yield space getting by on that 5-6% return, but in the event that the markets do collapse you can now have a contingency plan.

Satellite Pro S750: No gesture touchpad
Posted: 20-Apr-2012 07:15
The Satellite Pro S750 is specified as having a gesture control touchpad. Toshiba replaced my Satellite A660 with a Satellite Pro S750, and I was taking it for a test drive...no gesture control. I visited the driver page, and there are no synaptics touchpad driver. Instead, an ALPS Pointer Device Driver is shown. I tried downloading it, but was warned during installation that I was replacing a driver for one that is identical.
Is the description of gesture control touchpad simply a mistake? Am I the only one without it?

You might be right.
I visited this page
but did not find any info in user manual that gesture control would be available… furthermore there is no synaptics driver for download.
But you could visit the Synaptics page in order to download the newest driver:
Please post some feedback after the installation of such driver

Should I uninstall the current driver first? Actually, never mind, I uninstalled the ALPS driver. Then I installed the Synaptics driver. The problem is that even though it shows up on the system tray (or notification area, as it is called in Windows 7 Pro 64-bit), it doesn't look like it was really installed.
The Device Manager shows a "Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad". If I try to use the system tray to access the Synaptics Pointing Device, the Device Settings tab only shows a "Standard Pointing Device". On other computers, I'd actually see the word Touchpad in the device name.
Despite that, I tried to access the device's properties. I did not see the suite of panels that Synaptics normally provides for scrolling region, button assignment, etc. Instead, I see a video showing a CGI finger using the touchpad.
There is also a Settings icon, but all that does is open a panel to assign functions to the left and right buttons. I cannot have one of the two buttons act like a middle button in a 3-button mouse (which I need for some apps).
I am at a loss as to what to do. This computer was not purchased at a retail outlet. Toshiba's depot in Toronto sent it to me because some bad things happened to my original computer when they shipped it to me after repair task (the screen was damaged).
They were having trouble getting parts, so they sent me this machine instead. They sent me this particular model because I asked for it, after perusing the specs (which include gesture capability). I'm not sure they will take it back.
Even if they do, what's to prevent the replacement from also suffering the same problem? At any rate, I need the computer for the next week at least because income tax preparation deadline is fast approaching.

Usually you should get access to the advanced touchpad settings over the mouse settings.
Go to control panel -> mouse
Here you should check the last tab. In my case its called Advanced. There you can find the Advanced setting button.
In different cases this tab might be called Pointing Device or similar.
However, pressing on Advanced setting button you should get a new window opened called "Advanced features settings". Here you have again two buttons for touchpad settings and pointer speed and tapping settings.
Check both…but of course this can be different on your notebook

in response to:
When the ALPS driver is installed (the one that comes with the laptop) and I access Mouse from the Control Panel, I get the same panel as accessing the Touch Pad properties from the notification area. The Advance tab allows binding different functions to the buttons, but nothing resembling middle-button.
When I uninstall the ALPS driver, there is no Advance tab. There is only a Hardware tab containing a Devices list, and the only device is "PS/2 Compatible Mouse". Not much in the way of settings to change. There is now way to program buttons for middle-button functionality.
When Synaptics is installed, there is an additional Device Settings tab containing a Devices list. The only device is "Shared Pointing Device" and invoking its Properties panel is what displays the video of simple touchpad usage. There is a properties button, but it won't allow me to assign the middle-button function to the Left Button unless I go to the Tapping page and bind the Primary Click to mouse taps.
Unfortunately, unlike Synaptics on other laptops, there is no extensive navigation pane of customizations on this laptop. There is no Tapping page. Tapping works anyway, but I'm sure that's because it's part of the standard PS/2 TouchPad driver.
As far as Synaptics is concerned, however, I haven't set that functionality, so it does not allow binding of middle-button function to physical Left Button. Also, there is no page to set scroll regions. The are no scroll regions. And in the absence of multi-touch gesture, this mean no touchpad scrolling at all.

what fills he wants to do. Even though they are simpler versions of the songs, it's still quite complete without the extra touches. This time, once we got to the point where everyone had demos, we did actually jam on them quite a lot, which is something we don't usually do. That was cool. We got these little bits and pieces that came out of that.
Did the extended break since the last album reinvigorate the band and allow you to experiment more?
Li: I guess we had more time actually play-ing the songs and jamming them out ratherthan going straight into the studio andrecording without playing together. Thistime we really played the songs before thealbum was finished. It gave us the time,but we had to do it. It was really importantbecause we had a new singer. We couldn'tjust throw him into the studio and givehim a song and tell him, "See ya on tour."We needed to make Marc feel at home byplaying together and getting to know eachother's personality. It's almost like a socialevent as well, just playing the music andexploring his voice. By doing that, andsome shows before the album comesout, we aren't throwing him into this bigworld tour that he has no experience in.
How did you want this album to sound and stand out from your past records? Totman: I thought, for a start, the songs would be shorter. In the past, most songs would be around seven or eight minutes. Now they are all averaging about five or so. That is something I wanted to do anyway, whether we changed singers or not. People don't have the attention span to get into something. It's sad in a way but I have become that way myself, too. I can't really bother listening to an eight-minute song either. I would rather hear two catchy shorter songs. But to make up for that, I tried to get everything into that five minutes, so we aren't really losing something. We have more guitar solos underneath vocals and compacted it in a way without losing anything.
We also went back to more of a metal album sound. With the last couple of albums we had more electronic-y stuff and keyboards coming in, which I think was definitely cool at the time. But we realized that we took it as far as it could go. You could say the sound has gone back to more like what's on Sonic Firestorm—before we started to bring all those extra things in with the keyboards—in a way. With Marc's voice, we have more range to work with. I thought ZP had a great voice, but he wasn't really good down low and Marc has a really nice tone when he sings down low and then he can sing really, really high as well. So it just gives us more room to make things interesting, really.
Did you have to change any of the older songs to fit Marc's voice? Li: In a way, we are able to play the old songs like we used to play them. I don't mean that in a bad way, but on the last few tours we tuned down a half-step since they were long tours and we didn't want to stretch our singer too much. Now, we just play everything in standard tuning. Totman: That was something that we had to take into account when choosing a singer. Obviously, when you write songs for a

Felipe Massa is refusing to let talk of his pending sacking get to him, saying while he's with Ferrari he will give the team his all.
Massa has struggled in recent times as he has failed to find the form that took him to runner-up in the 2008 drivers' championship.
Last season he became the first Ferrari driver since 1992 to finish a season without a top-three result and this year he has again yet to reach the podium with his best resulting being a P4.
With new rumours almost every week naming Massa's possible replacement, the 31-year-old's days at Ferrari appear to be numbered especially after reports emerged last month claiming that the Italian stable had let their option on him for next season lapse.
But despite all the rumours and reports, Ferrari continue to back their driver with team boss Stefano Domenicali coming out last week saying Massa knows what he needs to do to secure a future with the team.
"I think Felipe knows (what he has to do)," the Italian team boss told Autosport. "He needs to maximise the performance that he can because we need his capabilities behind the wheel.
"We need points to try to attack first place in the Constructors' Championship, and also to take away points from the other drivers in the Drivers' Championship."
So the pressure is on for Massa, however, it's nothing new for the 11-time grand prix winner.
"For many people it seems like this is the first time this has happened to me, but it is not," Massa told TotalRace.
"This has happened many times even before I entered Formula 1 where if I didn't win the race there was no money for the next."
It has, however, also happened in Formula One most notably when reports claimed Massa would be dropped at the end of 2006 to make way for Kimi Raikkonen. Instead it was Michael Schumacher who departed.
"Back then everyone was sure I would not continue with the team, that Kimi would be signed to partner Schumacher. (They even said) Valentino Rossi was going to take my place.
"Every year there is something we have to deal with and get over. And this year I'm preparing and concentrating as much as possible to have a better second half of the Championship.
"I will continue to drive for Ferrari, representing the flag of Brazil."

Friday Discussion: The Best Album Closers
We posted a PropertyOfZack Friday Discussion on The Best Album Openers last week, so we're following it up this week with The Best Album Closers.

Winds rip portion of roof off of Raynham school
Posted: 01/31/13 at 7:40 am Updated: 01/31/13 at 11:10 am
Tags: Raynham
RAYNHAM, Mass. (WHDH) -- A portion of the roof was blown off of a school in Raynham.
The roof to the cafeteria was severely damaged but the rest of the school was spared.
Police said it happened around 6 a.m. Nobody was in the school but a teacher was getting out of her car when winds began ripping the roof off.
School property and street were littered with roof insulation. Safety officials checked the roof out and said that as long as children stayed out of the cafeteria the school was perfectly safe. The school opened for classes. The Principal said that lunch would still be able to be served, but inside the classrooms.
Neighbors said it was like a monsoon.
"I thought some insulation from my truck or something, but then I looked over and saw the roof and thought, well, that's not a good day," said resident Charlie Haskins.
Buses and traffic were rerouted so that the roof could be repaired during the day.
Another school in Fall River was also damaged due to the strong winds and rain.

A highly educated nursing workforce is necessary to meet the complex healthcare needs of the nation. According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, the recent passage of healthcare reform legislation has increased the demand for nurses with advanced degrees to serve as primary care providers, specialists, educators, and leaders throughout the healthcare delivery system.
A graduate nursing degree from Lewis University will prepare you to provide leadership for enhancing quality and safety across all healthcare settings. You will be ready to design new nursing practice models to meet critical needs for access to care and to improve healthcare outcomes for a diverse population.
Graduates are prepared to seek positions as clinical nurse educators, nurse managers, and adult and family nurse practitioners. Graduates are prepared also to integrate evidence-based clinical knowledge and research with effective communication and leadership skills to function within complex systems.
The complexity of today's healthcare system and the predicted shortage of nurse specialists, educators, and managers, calls for a highly educated professional nursing workforce prepared to fulfill demanding advanced roles in nursing. Lewis University provides that preparation.

Update on Life in Austin
It's been far too long since I last updated because so much has happened. Ryan and I relocated to Austin from London about 3 weeks ago and it's been non-stop activity since we arrived.
An amazing opportunity popped up the week I arrived with Sky Candy, an aerial artist collective here in Austin. They invited me to join the group AND perform in the East Austin Studio tour! I managed to pull together a very basic piece — read VERY basic — and took absolutely zero risks with it because I only had 1 hour to rehearse a routine I put together in my head on a new trapeze bar with no mats. Here's the routine:
I look forward to teaching static trapeze and corde lisse lessons with Sky Candy soon but am DESPERATE for indoor training space that gives me the flexibility to train whenever I need. So I'm investigating warehouse space now and crossing fingers something turns up soon because I may get to perform at Auditorium Shores on New Year's Eve and would love to do a rope piece.
By the way, here are some of the new tricks I was learning as I left London and hope to build these into my NYE routine:
Death roll:
Drop to mermaid:
I miss London so much but am so happy to be back home.

The first step is made with the right foot. Perform Hidari Kesa (downward diagonal cut to the left) and Gyaku Kesa (reverse upward diagonal cut to the right). Step back with the right foot and raise the katana into Jōdan no Kamae (upper guard with point of sword pointed up and slightly back). Pause 2 to 3 seconds and step back with the left foot and lower the katana into Chudan no Kamae (middle guard with point of sword level with throat). Chuburi (fling blood off of sword) finishing with kissaki (sword point) in front of right knee and the left hand at the obi over the saya. The kissaki should be at a height between the knee and the waist. Bring the left hand to the koiguchi (mouth of scabbard) and position the saya (scabbard) for the noto. Begin the noto by bringing the habaki (blade collar) to the koiguchi (mouth of scabbard) with the blade held horizontal. Push the katana forward running the mune (back of sword) on the left hand at the koiguchi (mouth of scabbard). Let the kissaki (sword point) drop in the saya (scabbard) and snap the saya forward to align it to the mune (back) of the katana. The katana is slipped slowly into the saya keeping the mune pressed against the saya. Bring the left foot forward making it even with the right foot as the katana is seated in the saya. The left hand is left at the top of the saya (scabbard) with the thumb holding the tsuba (guard) to keep the katana in place. Run the right hand along the top of the tsuka (sword handle) and then place it back on the right thigh. Take three steps back to the starting position starting with the left foot.

As if their near extinction, compulsory attendance at boarding schools, and constant violation of treaty rights by the U.S. Government were not enough, Native Americans were encouraged to leave the reservations for the big city during the 1950s and 1960s. Many did, but precious few were successful in large urban areas. In order to provide needed support and offer hope to these individuals, they formed political groups (Red Power, ARM, AIM, et al.). These organizations encouraged them to reject any sense of shame of their culture and assisted individuals as they waged battles in court, in federal parks, and in towns across America for their rights.
More importantly, these actions coincided with a return of the people to their traditions. Native-American activists inspired young people to learn as many of the old ways as they could. A Laguna woman who was part of this cultural renaissance became its most celebrated author.
Already highly regarded for her poetry collection, Laguna Woman (1974), Leslie Marmon Silko became the first female Native-American novelist with Ceremony (1977). The story illustrates the importance of recovering the old stories and merging them with modern reality to create a stronger culture. In the novel, a young man named Tayo, from the Laguna Reservation, returns from fighting in the Pacific. He is suffering from a battle fatigue that white medicine cannot cure.
Through his struggle back to health, we learn that the way to heal the self, the land, and the people, is to rediscover the neglected traditional ceremonies and our relationship to the earth. Noted technically for her non-chronological narrative and ability to blend poetry with prose, Silko has been praised as a master novelist.

SOLEDAD, Calif.- New information on the fight to keep cell phones out of state prisons.
Monday, the California Department of Corrections announced a new plan to crack down on cell phone use by inmates, without costing you a dime.
It's called Managed Access and it creates a cellular umbrella over a specified area, blocking unauthorized any sort of cell phone communication around that prison.
Central Coast News told you just how prevelant cell phones are in prisons. Inmates use the smuggled phones to communicate with the outside world, giving orders to committ crimes, conduct gang business, and even contact victims families.
Under this new system, the prison staff will have control over which phone numbers will still be operational within the cell network. Other than that all calls, text messages, or internet activity on a phone will be blocked.
The technology has already been tested at two facilities and Dept of Corrections hopes to start the roll out in prisons by October.

Cookie, in a post on tiny buddha you reminded me that I am "Divinity in motion". As are you. Someday, some very lucky man is going to find you, gently help you up from your knees, and I imagine his heart will be the one bursting with joy.
My brother would say "you're exactly where you're supposed to be". His reasoning, because "you are where you are". How can we be anywhere else?
I enjoy your writing, your spirit and wish for you everything you desire in life. You are deserving. Cary - April 3, 2012 at 10:15 PM

Hi Maria, I'm glad that a bit of kindness was able to move through me and back to you.
There will always be questions, long awaited answers, and then more questions. It's neverending and life has a way of undermining any plans we choose to create. Be who you are, where you are. To steal from Rilke, live the questions and love the questions, and to quote Soraya, a beautiful woman from Colombia, who had an even more beautiful voice, "Sometimes tomorrow comes just as it should". The "Divinity in motion" that we all are. Beautiful words you wrote. Thank you for allowing me to ramble a bit. Cary - April 4, 2012 at 5:40 PM

No, thank you for your wonderful messages!

Lenovo on Tuesday grew its family of Windows 8-based devices with the launch of four new convertible PCs, including the SMB-focused ThinkPad Twist (pictured above).
Touting a half-notebook, half-tablet form factor, the new ThinkPad Twist has a 12.5-inch display, runs an Intel third-generation Ivy Bridge Core processor and includes native SMB software offerings such as Lenovo Solutions for Small Business, which offers a suite of productivity and security tools targeted specifically at small- to medium-sized businesses. Users transition the ThinkPad Twist from clamshell to notebook mode by "twisting" the top screen and closing it down on top of the keyboard.
The new ThinkPad Twist measures 0.79-inches thick, weighs 3.48 pounds and gets seven hours of battery life.
[Related: Enterprise War: iPad Vs. Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2]
According to Peter Hortensius, senior vice president at Lenovo and president of the PC maker's Product Group, convertible form factors are poised to become one of the most popular on the market, marrying the functionality of a traditional notebook with the convenience of a tablet, while only requiring users to purchase and manage a single device.
"The next generation of tablet and PC combined ... allows users who need both [form factors] to get both without having to carry around both and manage both devices," Hortensius told CRN. "We think that type of simplification is significant."
In addition to the new ThinkPad Twist, which will be available for $849 alongside the launch of Windows 8 later this month, Lenovo has introduced three new convertibles under its consumer-focused "Idea" brand. The highest-end in the group is the new IdeaPad Yoga 13, which, in addition to being used as a tablet or notebook, can be used in what Lenovo calls "Stand" and "Tent" mode, ideal for watching movies or playing games.
The IdeaPad Yoga 13 has a 13.3-inch display and a thin 0.67-inch frame, and it also runs an Intel Ivy Bridge processor. Lenovo said it will also launch alongside Windows 8 and sell for $1,099.
Also introduced were the IdeaPad Yoga 11, essentially the 11-inch counterpart of the Yoga 13, and the IdeaTab Lynx, an 11.6-inch tablet that comes with an optional keyboard. These devices, also set to launch this month, will start at $799 and $599, respectively.

1. Determine what you want your holiday season to look like. How do you want to feel when you think about the holidays? The key to this is to put it on paper. Write down the vision and the tasks needed to achieve this goal. Place this paper where you can see it frequently. This will be your road map for the rest of the holiday season.
2. Enter the above tasks on the calendar. Shopping, sending cards, decorating and parties should be added to the calendar too.
3. Determine menus now. Use tried and true recipes that have become a tradition for your family. Prepare what you can ahead of time.
4. Seek assistance. A decorator, caterer, house cleaner or a professional organizer can help with the tasks that you don't like to do or that are over-whelming.
5. Create a holiday binder so you can record recipes, gift ideas, Christmas card lists and party plans. You'll be so glad you went to this extra effort next year.
6. Give non-clutter gifts such as movie passes, gift cards, savings bonds, spa treatments or make a donation in the recipient's name.
7. Limit shopping to two or three trips preferably before December 15th. Avoid crowds by shopping on weekday mornings.
8. Do not feel pressured into sending a holiday card complete with family newsletter and a perfect photo. This may take hours to complete.
9. Use only red, white and gold wrapping paper that you can use all year round. Don't be tempted to purchase gift wrap at the end of the season just because it's on sale.
10. Donate decorations that you did not use the past year. This will free up space in your storage area and make decorating flow more smoothly next year.
Please share your tips for simplifying the holidays. Leave your comments below.
