Please signs the economic recovery has actually stalled the holiday shopping season turned out to be a bit of a bust for the retailers.
2012 saw the worst year over year performance since 2008.
Sales -- electronics clothing jewelry.
Rose less than a percentage point while.
Analysts had expected growth of at least 3% joining me now -- B taos -- Managing partner of -- would investments.
Merry Christmas happy new year.
You know it does that surprise you at all.
If it really didn't mean you could kind of smell -- you could feel it in the economy.
No one was excited about this holiday season everyone felt as though they had very little clarity.
On where the future was economically.
So it really was pricing plus I walked around malls I walked -- New York.
He saw a lot of people you didn't see a lot of bags so I was not shocked by this -- 2012.
The year of indecisiveness.
Yet that's exactly the way -- -- -- you know put it you know.
Going all the way through the very beginning with obamacare going to be you know overturned because that seldom we might -- hiring picked up because and remember obamacare is a drain on.
The finances a lot of companies so people -- make a lot of decisions until that Supreme Court decision came -- then there was questions about the election now there's questions about fiscal -- and as a result of that everyone has basically -- inertia.
Nobody wants to move forward nobody wants to make decisions.
It's -- very tough economic environment it -- you know out in -- shopping malls it's really.
Being felt and we we measure that right -- we shopper track.
Yes and shopper track his down from what they it forecasted a recently revised at lower down about 25%.
And a -- I think it's important to point out that stock prices on a lot of retailers and in all companies especially retailers moved up in anticipation.
Of good sales and as a result of the numbers not be very good I think you're gonna see the earnings estimates from analysts on Wall Street come down so you might start to see that.
Impact on to the stock market as well how much of this Ed is if fiscal cliff as opposed to just the aggregate.
Of bad economic news.
Yeah I don't think most people really understand the fiscal -- I think they're starting to get it just as Molly had showed a couple minutes ago.
About how much more you're gonna pay taxes I don't have a lot of fiscal cliff.
I just think it's a lot of confusion and when people are confused they they really don't know what to do and they don't see any silver lining out there.
So they hold back -- -- -- I'll give me example with my kids are buying Christmas gifts it was more than negotiation.
With them what I can get away with spending what they want and need to spend.
Right now that it wasn't you know that that shows you a little bit about my household right.
But I -- that was the feeling I had I wasn't excited about buying gifts for my kids -- my wife I was more or less saying I have to buy certain things but I wasn't going overboard and I think a lot Americans are like that today is they're gonna be a ripple effect from the bad holiday shopping season through the economy.
-- and and again you know you you always try to -- show silver lining out there in the silver lining is that stock prices based on expected earnings are cheap.
-- and they're still very very inexpensive based on where they should be.
But I think -- -- -- February and as we get into next year.
How we're gonna see a really rough economy and I would not be surprised if we solve our GDP growth you don't really go sideways -- -- be even lower at this point where there's nothing good happening.
And until we start to see that you're not -- see people spending.
I guarantee that -- -- tasking negotiating with his kids.
Gosh I hope you got some really nice for your wife now you're going to be you know we've been -- I'm still negotiating now one year after I had that I sound like a -- negotiation trust me on that.
-- -- just gave thanks very much.
Yes that that's a --

Football is God for many people at UGA. The alumni support for our Dawgs is tremendous. They often show up in their RVs and trailers on Thursdays for a Saturday game. Alumni settle all over campus, and you will pass many of them grilling and drinking on your way to Friday classes, should you actually choose to go. There is an overwhelming feeling of pride for our Dawgs on game days, especially from the Alumni who were around for the low points. Football games are the place to be on Saturdays, and many town businesses shut down until the weekend is over. Sanford Stadium holds more than 92,000 people, and it is almost always jam packed or sold out. The other varsity sports programs have smaller followings and receive minimal press. Basketball games are a lot of fun and usually draw a decent crowd. The band attends basketball games, so there's always that excitement and entertainment. Our women's gymnastics team is very good, and the gymnastics meets are becoming more and more popular with the student body. Many local Athenians and children attend the meets. Swimming is also pretty popular, as the teams consistently do pretty well, and the facilities are awesome.
Intramural sports are really popular for fitness and recreation. Some of the teams are really good, and others are just horrible. So, at any level, you'll find your niche if you are interested. It seems like everyone has a lot of fun doing participating, though. Ramsey has excellent swimming, basketball, racquetball, and volleyball facilities, and the intramural fields are extensive. They include football and soccer fields, softball and baseball diamonds, tennis courts, walking trails, and even a large field for ultimate Frisbee players.

Posted by: Cathy on Apr 29, 2013
I'm currently painting a large diptych of birch trees so I've been trying to find reference materials. I came across this great tutorial which I thought would be super useful for those of you that use watercolors.
Materials required are: 1. Photo reference for sketch and value study (strongly recommended). 2. Pencil, eraser, ruler, masking tape, old regular size bath towel (tightly rolled), 1/2 sheet (15" x 22") 300# 100% rag (cotton) Kilimanjaro watercolour paper. 3. Two water containers (one for clean and one for dirty water) - large plastic cottage cheese tubs are ok. 4. Paper towels and/or clean rag (to absorb excess water from brushes when necessary). 5. Board with non-porous surface (i.e. sheet of plexiglass approx 20" x 24"). A smooth non-porous table top will work well enough in the beginning, however, you will not be able to tilt or move it like you would a separate board. 4. Palette. If you are a beginner and don't want to become too heavily invested in equipment at this time you can use a white ceramic dinner plate for mixing your colours and a plastic ice cube tray to hold your pigments. It is best to fill the wells from tube pigments and allow them to dry out before your first session. Then, when you are ready to begin painting, mist the surface with a spray bottle, wait a few minutes, and they will be ready to use. I use a Robert E. Wood palette. The wells are large and the inside is divided into two large mixing areas. The lid also works as a palette for holding four smaller washes. 5. Brushes - 2" flat wash brush (this should be a watercolour brush - not acrylic or oil as they are too stiff and will damage the surface of the paper); 1" flat wash brush; plus at least one round - #9 or #6. When you begin painting on full sheets of paper, a 3" flat wash brush is advised. 6. Paints. These should be watercolour tube pigments. There are now manufacturers who make large quantity tubes (37ml.) of good quality watercolour paints. If you begin with a small selection of primary colours you should be able to mix anything you need and can add more to your palette as you begin to experiment. I use the following basic colours in these lessons: watercolour palette Red: Alizarin Crimson Blues: Cobalt Blue; Ultramarine Blue; Prussian Blue Yellows: Aureolin; Gamboge; Burnt Sienna
Step 1
Using the photograph provided (or, where not available, the photo of the completed painting) lightly sketch in the design on your watercolour paper. When painting your own compositions, you should always spend some time on thumbnail sketches, planning the arrangement of your shapes. Remember to vary the size and contours while creating a design that you can paint without too much difficulty. You want to have some fun during the painting...the journey is just as important as the destination.
Step 2
Thoroughly soak the paper by immersing it in a tub of water for about 5-10 minutes allowing the paper to stretch. This will open up the fibers of the paper letting the pigment settle, while reflecting the white of the paper towards the eye and thus creating the luminous look of stained glass. The final piece should look like a watercolour painting, not just a painting done with watercolour pigment.
Step 3 Holding your paper carefully by the corners, let excess water drip off and then place onto your board. Now, roll your towel over the paper several times. The paper should remain damp but not wet - all glisten or shine should disappear. You now have a workable surface which will allow you to easily achieve both hard and soft edges at will.
Step 4
Tape the edges to your board. The water trapped under the paper will allow a greater "window" of working time.
Step 5
I begin by mixing puddles of colour in the palette wells - ultramarine blue; rose madder genuine or alizarin crimson; burnt sienna. These puddles contain a fair amount of water, but still have enough pigment to be vivid on the palette. Remember, we are not trying to compete with nature. We haven't got a chance of coming out ahead. It is rather difficult to compete with a sunset or sunrise on a piece of paper 22" x 30", so we have to cheat a little by using colour to our advantage. Before I paint anything I always determine the colour and texture of the subject, then try to find the quickest way of getting the story told. If it is not life threatening - try it!
Step 6
I know there is colour in the birch. It has a rough texture and it has got a shape. So...here we go. Pick up all three colours on a flat brush. I try to use the largest brush I have that will get the job done, and start applying a multicolour wash between the lines (if need be then also over the lines), then let all three colours mingle together on the paper.
Step 7
Vary the colour pattern from tree to tree by making one colour more dominant than the others. This will create a little more interest in the painting. Try and have fun with the colour patterns. You will be surprised how many different colours there are in a birch tree. As I said earlier, forget about staying between the lines. They are only a reference. The more relaxed you are with the brush, the better the results.
Step 8
This next step shows texture and roundness of the tree. Start by scraping or moving a puddle from one side of the tree to the other with a slight arc to the stroke. Clean the card or scraping tool after every stroke and start again. Begin your stroke outside the tree. Firmly pull the pigment to the other side. This is done while the paint is still wet. Results will vary depending on how wet or dry the paint is at this stage. You may need to practise on a scrap piece of paper a few times to get the pressure and timing right.
Step 9
Repeat Step #8, remembering to vary the width of your strokes (use cut up credit cards) and to leave some areas as originally painted. Refer to the photo of the finished painting. Where there are light/white areas, the paint has been scraped out by using the credit card technique. Then, while the paint is still wet, flood in some darker and more intense colour (richer paint mixture - less water) to show the birch blisters.
Step 10
Pick a wet edge and deposit some pigment on the dry side of the edge. If you are touching both wet and dry areas simultaneously, you will get a hard edge on the outside of the tree and rich colour will bleed into your wet area giving a soft edge. An interesting combination.
Step 11
From these puddles on the paper..paint in some curved lines to show the roundness of the birch. We first identify the shape of the tree, determine the colour we choose to tell the story, then execute the texture.
Step 12
From either..the puddles on the paper...or from the palette..scrape/paint some branches in using a palette knife or a small brush. I prefer the knife as it gives a more "twiggy" natural look. The branches should really appear angular. After every growing season the branch takes off at a slightly different angle. The birch is a rather rugged, hearty tree and the angular strokes capture the character quite nicely.
Step 13
Now it is time for the finishing touches. This and the following steps require that you allow the paper to dry...so go have a cup of coffee...or use your blow drier if you are in a hurry. Now, on dry paper, you can add more calligraphic marks - darker blisters - that will stay where you put them, instead of bleeding into other washes.
Step 14
After allowing your marks above to dry.... ...mix a new clean puddle of ultramarine blue - lots of water. Then, using a flat brush, paint a stripe down the shadow side of each birch trunk (the side opposite the starting point of your scrape marks).
Step 15
With a fairly damp brush (not dripping) wet out (soften) the inside edge to show the gradual shadow. Let the painting dry once more.
Step 16
With a fairly strong mix of burnt sienna, glaze in a few areas for the final touch. These transparent brush strokes over the existing colours give quite an effect. We're not trying to compete with nature, just dress her up a bit.
And here it is! Enjoy!

Small Tissue Paper Christmas Trees
I've long wanted to find an alternative for styrofoam cones and I'm delighted to have found a great idea. You can use styrofoam if you wish but this tutorial will also show you how to easily make a cone shape.
Materials: - tissue paper (10 sheets for large tree and 6-8 for medium tree) - styrofoam trees or homemade card trees - lots of glue
Make a whole load of flowers like this and then start to glue them from the bottom of your cone.
Glue them close enough so you do not see the cone but not so close as to overcrowd the flowers.
So, now for showing you how to make your own cones.
Here are some other shaped flowers you can make to cover other cones.
If you make several trees all with different textures it makes for a really interesting display.

I saw this idea a few times on the Martha Stewart site and I would really like to make these as stocking stuffers this Christmas. It seems like such an easy thing to do and would really take no longer than baking a cake. I have some lovely old jars that I could place these in too which would really make it a lovely gift for someone.
Baking soda Cornstarch Citric acid Spritzer bottles Food coloring Glass bowl Essential oil Baking molds
1. Sift 1 3/4 cup baking soda, 1 cup citric acid, and 2 cups cornstarch through a sieve to remove chunks. To make different tints, fill small spritzer bottles with water and add about 6 drops of food coloring to each. 2. Pour 1 cup of powdered mixture into a glass bowl. Lightly spritz, stirring after each spritz, until powder is desired color. Add water slowly, so mixture does not fizz. If mixing two tints, alternate colors as you spritz. Check the consistency of powder with your fingers; when it can be tightly packed or shaped, stop spritzing (this may take a little while). 3. Select an essential oil. Add 5 drops if it's one of the stronger scents (peppermint, lavender), 6 if it's a weaker one (lemon, grapefruit). Mix well. Firmly pack mixture into small baking molds. We used 1/4 cup for each fizzy, which is good for one bath. Allow mixture to set for 2 hours, then pop out carefully. Repeat with different tints for remaining powder.
If you wanted to have a different shape, you simply just need to use a different mold, like ice-cube molds.
This would give you a different way of being able to package them, like putting them in jars.

It all began in 1992 with two hardworking guys from Brooklyn selling beer out of an old van. An expert in the beverage business cautioned these two entrepreneurs that, "you can't sell iced tea in a can." They didn't listen. Today, Ferolito, Vultaggio & Sons sells more AriZona beverages in cans—and bottles—than any other premium ready-to-drink iced tea company in the United States. Still growing at over 25 percent annually, the company accounts for a large portion of the growth in the ready-to-drink category. And they've done it while still managing to stay family-operated and privately-held.

Skydive thrill for brave Basingstoke mum
3:30pm Friday 12th October 2012 in News By Emily Roberts, Chief Reporter
A BRAVE Basingstoke mum is set to take a massive leap of faith to raise money for a charity which helps people with physical disfigurements.
On October 16, Jessica Whitfield will launch herself from a plane in the hope that her bravery will inspire people to donate money to Changing Faces.
The 28-year-old was born with a severe birthmark called a hemangioma that has disfigured her face, and she has undergone numerous operations to reduce its size.
In an image-obsessed world, the-mother-of-two has come to accept her disfigurement and hopes her charity mission will raise awareness of Changing Faces, to show others that appearance is not everything.
Jessica, who is a carer, said: "Nowadays, the focus is on looking good and being perfect, and I just want people to see that not everyone is 'perfect' especially if you have a disfigurement."
Jessica has proudly put herself in the spotlight to raise awareness of disfigurement, appearing on Channel 4 documentary Beauty and the Beast: The Ugly Face of Prejudice last year, and taking part in a Daily Mail article about women with scars this August.
But she said the skydive in Peterborough will be one of her biggest challenges yet. She added: "It was one of those things I thought 'let's just do it' but then you think about it after and wonder 'why am I doing this?'."
She will be joined on the big jump by Adam Pearson, who has neurofibromatosis – a congenital disorder which causes small growths to develop around nerves, leaving his face severely disfigured.
Jessica was just two when she first had surgery to reduce the size of the birthmark, and she had an operation almost every year after until she began secondary school.
Her treatment is ongoing, and her last hospital stay was just a few months ago in July when she had injections to reduce the size of the birthmark.
She said: "I don't think it will ever stop. But after all the operations and the support from everyone I decided it's time to give something back to Changing Faces charity to help other people with disfigurements."

Carrick still hungry for honours
Michael Carrick has revealed he has become more hungry for honours as the trophies have piled up at Manchester United.
- Related Content
Carrick collected his fifth Premier League winners' medal in May, joining a select group that includes Wayne Rooney, Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic.
Rio Ferdinand has one more, although they are all trailing well behind Ryan Giggs, who with 13 has won more championships than any other player in English football history.
Yet rather than get bored of all the success, Carrick claims it just increases his desire for more.
"It's not difficult at all [to stay hungry]," the England midfielder told MUTV. "It's very easy.
"It's just that feeling of picking up the trophy and the satisfaction of achievement you get as a group of players and as a club. You want that feeling again and again.
"Once you get it you get greedy and you want more."
So, while most observers look at someone like Giggs and marvel how, at 39, he can retain the appetite to push his body through another pre-season campaign when he could just call time on his career with his legacy secure, Carrick can empathise completely.
"I look at how Ryan has kept going for so long, but I can understand it," Carrick said.
"This season we've come back as hungry as ever and that's on the back of winning it last season.
"In some ways you're even hungrier to do it again when it comes to retaining the trophy because everyone wants to beat you. That's what drives us forward."
Carrick certainly got the feeling neutral fans were anticipating a slip-up at Swansea last weekend given the prominence given to United's tough start, which David Moyes himself fuelled by "having a moan" to the Premier League.
That United emerged 4-1 winners bodes well for the forthcoming fixtures, starting against Chelsea at Old Trafford on Monday.
"People would have asked questions no matter what game we had at the start of the season, and a lot of people would have been hoping to see us slip up," said Carrick.
"The performance wasn't as important as getting off to a winning start.
"We have got the ball rolling now and hopefully that first win to kick-start the season, especially with the four or five games coming up."
Chelsea's visit promises to be the start of an intense week at Old Trafford, with bids anticipated for some players and others needing to be resisted.
With Moyes confirming Rooney is likely to start on Monday, it raises the intriguing prospect of seeing how the 27-year-old performs against the team who have already had two bids for his services turned down, and have pledged to go back in again with a third attempt to prize him away.
In contrast, Moyes will attempt to sign Marouane Fellaini and Carrick's England team-mate Leighton Baines, which will fuel more chatter in the United dressing room, even if the players themselves are not always aware of the latest developments.
"It gets mentioned," said Carrick.
"You can't hide from it and it is quite exciting when the club gets linked with certain players.
"But you don't waste too much time about it and there is no point asking me about anything because I don't know.
"We find out the same ways as everyone else."

I am using intel core i7, 6 gig ram, evga 58 mobo, hooked up to an lcd tv that doesn't render very high display. i think it's 1080 by 720 or somthing close to that ratio. Anyway not the point. I am running vista ultimate 64 and using radeon hd 4670. The compare shows I am am half the other cards the same at 700 or so. I am getting 300 to 350. It's higher obviously if I turnn the catylist to performance. The real question is why in the results does it say that the 2d and 3d test are running in 32 and evrything else is 64. Can the card not utilize 64? Why is my score so much lower. Is it a temperature thing. Gets hot. almost 80c at one point. Thought it would melt. It is auto tuned almost to the very max from catylist. Any ideas would be great.
Was going to turn down graphics in windows. Shut down other processes and close programs but didn't think the latter two would have much effect on a gpu. I am going to implement a cooling design too. Should help.

Thanks to Dictionary.com, I won a contest this weekend. The challenge: who could find synonyms for a word fastest (it was "fancy," as in "stop being so fancy about everything.")

Taylor's tendency toward subtle, neutral bags doesn't mean she can't appreciate a bold designer moment like the rest of us. This Fendi Anna Shoulder Bag in bright blue is my favorite purse in her closet. You can get one in brown for $1680 via BlueFly.
Sorry, really not impressed with any of her choices.
I'm not an enormous fan of her handbag choices either, personally, but we try to spread out the attention to lots of different types of collections!
I think some of her clothing choices are very nice…..the Jimmy Choo and the Fendi are nice but not the best of either brand. The other bags are not my style at all.
Not a big fan of Swift and her handbag collection is boring.
I have to agree w/ everyone else. Love Taylor and loves that she does hi-low. But too boring???LOL:) Throw a Wang in there girl..LOL
She's only 23, so she's probably still developing a sense of what she likes when it comes to purses. I didn't really get into them till her age and only recently started buying designer. I like it that she buys from little known designers.
omg, worst bag collection ever, the only thing I like is her fendi, the rest are ugly, boring, and makes me want to vomit lol!
That's her taste, her style, her look. Stand Out, Not Fit In Sellers Decor
Save 30% on ANIMAL PRINT SHOULDER BAG! Starting 8/10. http://payv.me/O6FJp5
This weekend only!
How about doing a "The Many Bags of .." the Kardashian sisters (as much as there are many haters, they have an awesome bag closet) and Victoria Beckham (that's not Hermes or from her own collection – now, that would be really fun to know) :-)
i think shes great ,everyone on this post eems to be knocking her just because shes not carrying a Proenza bag or a celine like the rest of the herd …..her bags go perfectly with her outfits and also shes being responsible buy showing her fans who lets face many of who wont have much cash as her that you can look styilsh without forking out a thousand plus dollars on a bag….real style comes from being different from others not being a designer brand slave
SO TRUE!!!!! Designer brand slaves are most often than not talentless. Nuff said!
True that her collection is not to "die for". The only one I liked was her Gerard Darel handbag – neutral, clean and simple. But it is also because of the fact that she doesn't have such a drool-worthy collection, that i admire her. She's not too hung up on brands and just really enjoys what she wears.
I actually kind of like some of her later stuff, too. And I like her bags and clothes, however non-high fashion they might be.
I love the Wonderstruck one, but the Rugby Ralph Lauren Pony Hair and Leather Saddle Bag is my favourite one… I'd love to have one of those )-:
These bags are hideous, but at least they are somewhat affordable.
I think she is cute and casual. It's actually refreshing to see that she hasn't fallen victim to the 'It' bag fashion trends so many of today's starlets have. And as a mom to a 12 y/o, I really appreciate her down to earth, attainable style for the younger kids. I'm glad they have a positive role model. Adorable!

Here are some methods I use:
-- Exercise is key. When you're physically in shape, it's easier to get the
motivation to exercise more and also easier to get the motivation to do
mental work and other stuff, I find.
-- Find fun and/or useful ways to exercise. I do learning activities (reading or singing)
during some types of exercise. Some of my exercise is to go places (walking, cycling).
Signing up for scheduled exercise classes can be a lot more motivating
than exercising alone at home.
-- Choose a simple, easy first step. One of the books (maybe by David Allen,
maybe somebody else) suggested changing into exercise clothes, because then
you start feeling like exercising. For other activities there may be other first
steps, like getting out a nice letter-opener; or standing up, walking around
in a circle, and saying "Now I'm going to ...". The tiny bit of exercise
increases blood flow and makes it easier to get the motivation. Saying something
out loud also helps.
-- Give yourself rewards. One of my problems is: I earn rewards but am too
busy to take them! So I usually try to choose rewards that don't take much time.
A reward can be a simple thing like looking at the pictures in a particular book.
If you've chosen it as a reward for a particular activity, then it will feel like a reward.
-- Positive reinforcement: one definition of this is pleasant things that happen
during (not after) the activity. For example, listening to music while doing something.
-- Divide the project into parts and plan a celebration after finishing each part.
Look at what you've done and feel good about that.
-- At the beginning of the day do something difficult you've been putting off; then do easier things the rest of the day. (see the book "Eat that Frog!".)
-- Set reasonable expectations for new habits: so your overall day will be somewhat
better than before, but not unrealistically totally changed. Once those new
habits are well ingrained, then you can move forward further to improve some more
habits. Trying to change too much at once may be too overwhelming. (according
to the book Willpower by Baumeister and Tierney.)
-- The Now Habit at Work by Fiore says to set a goal of doing new, good habits for
30 days. Preferably 30 consecutive days, but if you mess up one day, then you just
don't count that day, and continue counting from where you'd gotten to the day before. I really like this method! It's encouraging, not discouraging.

HOME Rent a Cell Phone Buy a Phone & SIM Buy a SIM Card Buy a Data SIM Card Buy a Mifi Hotspot Rent a Mifi Hotspot Buy a Phone Only Recharge Vouchers Get NatGeo Balance Study Abroad Phones Satellite Phones Japan/Korea Phone FAQs Rental Info Travelocity Phone
We are the number one online cell phone rental company and the first of only a few that rent pay as you go solutions for the UK. Furthermore, our solution is by far the least expensive solution available for making cell phone calls. In fact, at 10 cents per minute, virtually anyone traveling to Great Britain can afford to rent our services. We have rented thousands of cell phones just to the UK over the past 5 years and we know are products well. Our goal is to continue to be the number one resource for cell phone rentals to the UK in customer service, price and customer experience.
Here are just a few testimonials from customers who have used our services.
I just wanted to say thank you so much. My son would have had no cell phone (he's a minor) to call home with, if it weren't for your going the extra mile. This is such a comfort to us. I will always use your company in the future & will recommend it to everyone I know. Again, thank you for your patience and your help. Deborah L
Thank you for the discount. My compliments are well deserved by you. I have never received this level of service and professionalism from an online source in the 8 years that I have been using the Internet to place orders. Again thank you, I look forward to receiving the product. JC
Thanks for such a prompt and informative email. We will be doing more business in the future and I will be sure to recommend your company to my friends. TJ
I appreciate the help you have provided me on this. Please let your organization know that you were VERY responsive and made this complex concept (for me at least) go a lot more smoothly. It is rare in the web market that I have seen such responsiveness. Thanks again. MP
Once again you guys came through for me! I know it wasn't a usual destination request, but you got me a sim card prior to my departure, it worked perfectly (as always) & when our car broke down in the middle of NOWHERE in Bulgaria on a Sunday, I was REALLY thankful for the cell! You've come through in 3 for 3 for us (Thailand, Spain & now Bulgaria) so thanks! LW
If you are like most people, your current US phone will not work in overseas, including the UK. Therefore, if you want cellular service, you have the option of renting or buying a phone. Frequent travelers often prefer purchasing a cell phone. In fact, by the time you rent a phone two times, you could have purchased a basic, no nonsense phone/UK SIM package. All our phones are unlocked and either triband or quadband which allows you to use them in other countries as well simply by swapping out the UK SIM for another country's SIM. If you are not sure what you want to do, Cellular Abroad recommends renting the phone and don't return it. You will forfeit your deposit but ultimately, this "rent to own" option will only cost you about $20 more than if you had purchased from the get go. Over half of our customers, particularly the frequent overseas travelers, prefer purchasing a phone for a variety of reasons. Besides the fact that ultimately, they will save money, it prevents them from having to go through the process of renting the phone and sending it back to us each time they go abroad. Some customers are concerned that the technology will quickly change and that if they purchase a new phone, it will soon become a throw away. The GSM technology, however, will not go away any time soon. Currently, there are over 2.5 billion, yes billion, GSM users in the world and to get rid of that technology soon…well, let's just say that someone would probably have something to say about it. In sum, it is safe to say that any GSM phone purchased today and taken care of would be usable for at the very least, the next several years if not longer. In fact, we still have plenty of customers who purchased a popular phone model that we haven't sold for 4 years (the Ericsson R520) that still have their phones. Our standard recommendation is that if you travel more than once a year overseas, it makes sense to purchase a phone. If you travel less than once a year, it makes sense to rent a cell phone and if you travel about once a year, it is a toss up.
Your current phone just may be compatible for use in the UK. There are several aspects to consider. Whereas a couple of years ago, there were very few phones that worked in North America as well as Europe, many of the newer phones on today's markets, particularly the more expensive phones, will work in the UK and other countries. The basic requirements are that your phone is unlocked and has the 900 and 1800 GSM frequencies. If your phone has a SIM card, that means that it is using the GSM service. In the US, T-Mobile and AT&T use the GSM technology. Still, if you have an older AT&T phone, you might be on their older technology. In any event, in order to determine if your phone does have the 900 and (you need both) 1800 GSM standards, either check you original instruction guide for the specs or call your carrier and ask. If you don't know what model phone you have, your best bet is to bring it to a cell phone store and have them determine if your phone has the proper networks to function in the UK.
Even if your phone is GSM and has the 900/1800 networks, it will need to be unlocked in order to be able to accept a different SIM card. If you bought your phone from a major US or Canadian provider, 9 out of 10 it is locked. That means that your phone has been blocked from accepting different SIM cards other than the current providers. The reason they do this is that they would prefer that you used "their" phone with their services, including, paying the expensive roaming fees. The good news is that they will provide you with the unlock code in order to use other SIMs with your phone. Our viewpoint is that since the phone is yours, you should be able to use whatever SIM card you want! Imagine only being able to use Microsoft branded software on your Microsoft computer.
Once you have the unlock code, all you need to do is to enter the proper sequence onto the handset. The only way to know for sure if your phone is locked or unlocked is to put a SIM card that is different from the current one into your handset. If it is locked it will say, "enter subsidy code" or similar. If it is not locked, it will not say anything and will search for the network (which it may or may not find, depending on if your SIM has been activated or not).
Therefore, please ascertain if your phone has the 900/1800 GSM bands and, if it is locked, ask your provider for the unlock code. If your phone isn't compatible with overseas networks, you may consider either renting or buying a cell phone – we have both options available.
Cellular Abroad has made it extremely easy for you to add call credit to your UK cell phone rental, purchase or SIM card (you are actually adding it to your SIM card in all circumstances). You can add talk time prior to your departure or during your trip. If you want additional talk time to be added together with your order, simply add it to the cart or tell the customer service agent how much talk time you want. You can also purchase talk time while you are in the UK by calling our recharge hotline, available 7 days/week . We can tell you the recharge over the phone and you can add it directly to your account by dialing the access number. This is the most convenient way as you can get more talk time at any time and any where. Another alternative is to purchase talk time by going through a vendor in the UK. There are over 100,000 sales points where you can purchase call credit for your phone.
Lebara UK does allow you to roam outside of the United Kingdom. However, please be aware that incoming rates are not free and outgoing rates are more expensive than using the service within the UK.
Furthermore, you will not be able to purchase additional talk time locally by going to a convenience store. You may purchase Lebara recharge vouchers through Cellular Abroad online or by calling our international toll free hotline.
While roaming rates with Lebara are more expensive than using the service within the UK, roaming still makes sense if you plan on taking short excursions outside of the UK. Otherwise, for longer trips, please condsider the National Geographic Travel SIM with unlimited free incoming calls anywhere in Europe.
Currently, roaming rates in Europe for Lebara are the following:
Roaming rates in North America are the following:
Cellular Abroad has compiled a list of travel tips associated with your cell phone rental or purchase. Some of these have been passed on by our customers and some are based on our personal experience. A few of these tips may seem obvious but others may be less obvious and can prove to be invaluable resources. Please feel free to comment on our tips or to add more based on your own travels. We hope you find them helpful! Leave your new UK based phone number on your current cell phone Before you depart, you may want to leave your new UK cell phone number on your current cell phone's voicemail. Remember to mention the proper dialing procedure to call to the UK, including the country code (011-44-phone number). Another option is to forward your home number to your Italian one. However, Cellular Abroad does not recommend this approach as the costs to forward calls from cell phones are high. Enter phone number into speed dial You may safely enter phone numbers onto your phone from the US or Canada. Please remember that from the UK, to call North America, the dialing sequence is 001, followed by the area code, then the phone number (ex. 001-212-555-1212). Get non 800 numbers You may need to call back home to 800 numbers (ex. Credit card companies to pay your bill or report losses, etc.). There is nothing more aggravating than calling a toll free number from abroad to resolve an issue and not having that number work from overseas. In fact, the majority of 800 numbers do not work internationally. The ones that do by the way are not toll free from overseas so you might as well get a non toll free number. This is quite a common issue and we highly recommend that this step becomes part of your trip planning procedure.
Call credit card company and let them know you are traveling Another aggravation, and a common one at that, is for your US or Canada based credit card to stop working while overseas. Imagine attempting to pay for your meal at a restaurant only to find out that your credit card use has been temporarily restricted due to your own "suspicious" use pattern. It very much makes sense to let your credit card company's customer service know that you will be using the card overseas so they do not think that it is being used fraudulently. Also, it is useful to give them your new cell phone number just in case they need to reach you. Give your phone number to airline carriers and hotels One tip that we have received is based upon a travel nightmare. A well known airline (without mentioning any names), lost but then found a traveler's luggage. The traveler had given them a US cell phone number that worked abroad. However, due to restrictions, this particular airline carrier could not contact the customer until well into his trip. The moral of the story is, make sure that all parties that you will be doing business within the UK that may need to contact you have your new phone number. Don't pack your phone in your suitcase Speaking of lost luggage, we do not recommend that you pack your phone in your suitcase. If it gets lost or stolen, that means that you will be without cellular communication for the length of the trip.
What area code does my SIM have?
Unlike North America, most countries do not associate cities to phone numbers. Phone numbers have their own unique area codes that differentiate them from land lines.
Is the SIM card in English? All menu prompts are in English.
How do I add call time? The easiest and quickest way to add talk time is to call Cellular Abroad 7 days/week . We will give you a pin code or codes for you to enter onto the handset. This will give you immediate talk time. You may also purchase talk time locally as per our instructions.
Is there voicemail? Yes, there is.
Can I send emails? At this time, you cannot send emails. You can, however, send and receive text messages.
Is there GPRS? There is no GPRS available as of this time.
Can I roam outside of the UK? You can not roam outside of the UK with a Mobile World SIM card.
How much are phone calls? Phone calls are free to receive and are 5 pence to call the US or Canada and 15 pence to call within the country.
Can I use my US/Canada phone? If your phone is unlocked and a GSM phone with the 900 and 1800 bands, you will be able to use your phone. Simply purchase a UK SIM card and insert it in your phone. Chances are, your handset also has a multi voltage power supply. You will, however, need a plug adapter for the outlet.
How good is the coverage? Coverage in Europe in general, including the UK, is, overall, superb. However, there may be instances, particularly in very remote areas or indoors where coverage is low or not available. Mobile World uses the T-Mobile network for service.

Conditions of Use
Ah, books. A great passing time and fine entertainment. I am currently reading Artemis Fowl and the Opal Deception. Artemis Fowl is a book series about a 13-year-old genius that makes one of the greatest discoveries of all time: a secret civilization underground. The civilization consists of a highly intelligent race including fairies, centaurs, warlocks, dwarfs, and goblins. These fairies are not your typical three-inch tall woodland pixies either; they pack awesome weaponry, have epic technology, and are currently rivaling with Artemis Fowl, who wishes to exploit them to the world in order to obtain whatever he wants. I like the action and story of this book and there is nothing that I actually dislike. After this series, I am thinking about reading the Percy Jackson novels. I'd like to know more about the series before I read it, so, post some facts! Oh, and make sure you read the Artemis Fowl series as well!

The previously mentioned Infinity chili -- used in the Widower -- earned the highly coveted record a year earlier in March 2010 but was ousted only a few months later by the Naga Viper chili, also grown in the UK. They remain third and second, respectively.
So, that's the story of the man who conquered the world's hottest curry. Surely, everybody knows someone right now who would gladly accept the challenge. And they would all likely fail. For it takes a true warrior to step up and face the Widower.
Or you can just be sensible and have something else.

Key Challenges Facing Federal Agencies
GAO-06-777T, May 17, 2006
Additional Materials:

- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6240
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Advances in information technology make it easier than ever for the federal government to obtain and process personal information about citizens and residents in many ways and for many purposes. To ensure that the privacy rights of individuals are respected, this information must be properly protected in accordance with current law, particularly the Privacy Act and the E-Government Act of 2002. These laws prescribe specific activities that agencies must perform to protect privacy, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has developed guidance on how and in what circumstances agencies are to carry out these activities. Many agencies designate officials as focal points for privacy-related matters, and increasingly, many have created senior positions, such as chief privacy officer, to assume primary responsibility for privacy policy, as well as dedicated privacy offices. GAO was asked to testify on key challenges facing agency privacy officers. To address this issue, GAO identified and summarized issues raised in its previous reports on privacy.
Agencies and their privacy officers face growing demands in addressing privacy challenges. For example, as GAO reported in 2003, agency compliance with Privacy Act requirements was uneven, owing to ambiguities in guidance, lack of awareness, and lack of priority. While agencies generally did well with certain aspects of the Privacy Act's requirements--such as issuing notices concerning certain systems containing collections of personal information--they did less well at others, such as ensuring that information is complete, accurate, relevant, and timely before it is disclosed to a nonfederal organization. In addition, the E-Gov Act requires that agencies perform privacy impact assessments (PIA) on such information collections. Such assessments are important to ensure, among other things, that information is handled in a way that conforms to privacy requirements. However, in work on commercial data resellers, GAO determined in 2006 that many agencies did not perform PIAs on systems that used reseller information, believing that these were not required. In addition, in public notices on these systems, agencies did not always reveal that information resellers were among the sources to be used. To address such challenges, chief privacy officers can work with officials from OMB and other agencies to identify ambiguities and provide clarifications about the applicability of privacy provisions, such as in situations involving the use of reseller information. In addition, as senior officials, they can increase agency awareness and raise the priority of privacy issues. Agencies and privacy officers will also face the challenge of ensuring that privacy protections are not compromised by advances in technology. For example, federal agency use of data mining--the analysis of large amounts of data to uncover hidden patterns and relationships--was initially aimed at detecting financial fraud and abuse. Increasingly, however, the use of this tool has expanded to include purposes such as detecting terrorist threats. GAO found in 2005 that agencies employing data mining took many steps needed to protect privacy (such as issuing public notices), but none followed all key procedures (such as including in these notices the intended uses of personal information). Another new technology development presenting privacy challenges is radio frequency identification (RFID), which uses wireless communication to transmit data and thus electronically identify, track, and store information on tags attached to or embedded in objects. GAO reported in 2005 that federal agencies use or propose to use the technology for physical access controls and tracking assets, documents, or materials. For example, the Department of Defense was using RFID to track shipments. Although such applications are not likely to generate privacy concerns, others could, such as the use of RFIDs by the federal government to track the movement of individuals traveling within the United States. Agency privacy offices can serve as a key mechanism for ensuring that privacy is fully addressed in agency approaches to new technologies such as data mining and RFID.
