Ratings & Reviews
CAUTION: Not compatible with iPhone alarm!!
I was very disappointed after purchasing the DS1155 to find out that it does not work with the native alarm on the iPhone 5. It en I was very disappointed after purchasing the DS1155 to find out that it does not work with the native alarm on the iPhone 5. It ends up playing both out of the iPhone 5 speakers and the dock and as there is a delay between the 2 you get this weird delayed crazy sound. The other outcome is no sound at all.
Philips knows about it too. You can see for yourself if you Google "ds1155 alarm audio comes out of both iphone speakers and dock speakers but desynced"
The non-compatibility issue should be mentioned in the product description on apple.com.
Otherwise, it does do a good of being a phone charger with a clock. …- Written by Jason T from Montreal

Good as a speaker not so great as a clock
The dock has a really nice design, strong and sturdy! The volume from the speaker is always really nice, goes surprising loud and The dock has a really nice design, strong and sturdy! The volume from the speaker is always really nice, goes surprising loud and had a quality much better than some of the other cheaper docking systems that I have used in the past. The USB port in the back is a perfect addition as it allows me to charge my older 30 pin dock iPod whilst having my iPhone 5 in the dock itself charging them both (sometimes i charge my camera through the USB too). As for all this talk of alarms not working, they work fine for my iPhone, both the timer and alarms from the stock clock app play through the speaker just fine (as well as ring tones and other notifications). The main downfall of the dock is the clock it is far to dim to be seen in the day during a sunny day and there is no way to increase or dim its brightness. The LED light halo makes for a nice novelty as it is far to dim to use as a bed side light and often only stays on for a minute or two at most (though this can be dimmed). Missing an AUX input is disappointing and no bluetooth or radio capabilities does limit the device to straight lightning devices but its not too pricey so I can't expect it to have everything. Over all this is a nice dock for charging your phone of a night and having a louder alarm for when the volume of the iPhone speaker doesn't quite wake you up. …

Phillips DOck Studio App pretty useful
Allows you to set alarms within the dockstudio app. Also has a sleep timer, display location weather. Can fit phone while in case Allows you to set alarms within the dockstudio app. Also has a sleep timer, display location weather. Can fit phone while in case on the dock. Dock has a nice LED glow/night light adjustable brightness halo under base of station. App displays weather and either digital or analog clock (can also dim display brightness within the app)/ Can play audio from ipod music library, the 'tunein' radio fucntion from phillips app does not work as there is no radio tuner built into the dock. Weather is from accuweather.com.
Audio is decent, but the audo from the JBL one is a bit louder and crisper. Gets pretty decently loud, do not play at top volume unless you want to mess up the speaker!
Dock has buttons built into the wood for volume and halo brightness.
Handsome little device, obviously has a digital clock built into the base which syncs with the devices timer.
Has a built in extra usb port for charging an extra device (does not play music over the usb).
Ringer and iOS alarm play through the speakers.
Phillips dockstudio alarms obviously play through the speaker.
The reason I swapped the JBL one for the phillips (only two docks so far with lightning docks) is that the JBL would auto turn off to save power so after an hour the phone did not push any audio to the speakers.
Phillips works well for any lightning ipod or iphone, would likely work with an ipad.
The built in lightning adapter is adjustable and swivels front and back.
THere is a handsome glass support also built into the dock.
All in all a good product for fucntion. If you want to simply play music as loud as possible at the best quality get the JBL one micro (extra $10). If you want function get this dock.
Both docks are pretty sleek and modern looking. …- Written by Abdul W from Acton

Marginal at best

It does not always sound the alarm - which is not good. You cannot rely on the Phillips alarm app, which also does not do internet radio as advertised, and the touch zones for the app "buttons" are tiny and you have to use the very, very, very, tip of your finger to use this stinky app. They have not updated the app in a looong time either. I would steer away. Better sound can be found elsewhere too. Minimal documentation with purchase rounds out the utter disappointment in this deal. …

I feel like I just payed for the look of the stereo. The sound quality isn't so GREAT. I tried messing around with the EQ settings on my iPhone but I noticed that its just the bass that doesn't sound so great on this stereo, sounds kind of like static. Beautiful little thing overall. …

Because I upgraded t Before purchasing this item, I had an iPhone 4S and the Stem Time Command mini docking station. I LOVED it. Because I upgraded to the iPhone 5S, I had to upgrade my dock. I went with this one, as it is the most comparable to the Stem dock. I was VERY disappointed to find that with the Apple case on my iPhone 5S (the leather case made by Apple), this dock doesn't work; it does not allow the phone to completely connect to the Lightning Connector. In fact, the only way I could get it to completely connect was with NO case at all, by pushing the phone into the connector firmly. I am definitely a case person, so I am trying to figure out the best solution for this. But, sad that I can't plug in my phone as-is! Once I did get it plugged in, I found the sound to be great quality, and unlike other reviews warned, the native alarm/clock App worked just fine on mine. Dock has some pretty cool under-lighting (but luckily you can turn it off). …

{Petition for smtown passports to be sold as merchandise for smtown singapore.}
Hi all,a lot of us have already asked RITS to negotiate with sm so as to bring in the passports for the smtown singapore stop. However, the reply RITS gave was that the korean management did not approve of it and told us to appeal to the korean management directly. Many of us have been expecting smtown to come to Singapore, and thank God that now it is finally gonna happen! It is such a rare opportunity and the whole "no passports would be sold during the Singapore stop" is just so disappointing. My main objective is to gather and unite all smtown fans, be it if you're a Cassie,ELF,SONE,Shawol,Jumping,fx stan(i feel very disappointed that fx still does not have an official fanclub name yet) or even an exo stan, to come together and let our voices be heard. If we want it,we have to fight for it. Sign the petition. Whatever the end result may be,at least we tried. SMTOWN JJANG!!

You should be hung in the tate ..take that how u wish......brilliant and twisted.
Blimey mate, this is good!!
It's not just the ability to create these pictures of yours that's mind blowing, it's the thought process that inspires them to be made in the first place. The jury is still out on whether you are inspirational or soul destroying!! Hopefully the former .
Now if I could just drag the Isle of Wight up to the middle of the country I could trade beer for tips.
Quite super, love the way a recognisable picture becomes pure digital art and that it also tells a story or two.
In fact - quite reminds me of the daily commute sometimes when you wait for ever due to works on the line - in such situations I often want to get off and walk but wonder what issues that would cause by trespassing on the tracks, and also whether anyone else would follow?
Thanks !
Had no internet for a few days after re-setting my router so many times it blew up, so aol replaced it.
Still on a massive 1.5mb though lol.
twiz a bit deep perhaps and from the "separation" series , and Im not sure to post the others, its a catharsis thing at the moment . Me and her separating after 20 years kinda twats ones brains up

We spoke with you around the time the job was accepted and was unaware that you were moving to New Hampshire. We had labor only jobs in Boston that day in which your job got confused with another job. Hire a Helper knows we do in state moves only and on our website long distance moves are still in state only. We called and made sure it was enough time for Hire a Helper to get you another crew which they did. We have no reason to lie about our services. We did/do apologize for any inconvenience.
~ Pleasant Moving of Boston
Hi Collen, We apologize for any inconvenience. First off we have our own schedule aside from hire a helper. We called and notified you that we only had the times between 12:00 pm.-1:00 pm. to start which you agreed to. On the day of your move, you were called and left a message before noon about the delay. We do not operated in an unprofessional manner as you can see in our reviews. Again we do apologize, but you were notified of the delay and you choose to cancel. Hope all is well.
~ Pleasant Moving of Boston
Hi Tiffiny, well in your circumstances you changed the time on your move which set back our scheduling, which was the reason for the delay. Also with the amount of items you had along with the long walk to the truck, you should have went with three men. We worked non stop on your move and made sure nothing was damaged. Well we hope all is well and feel free to contact me if you want to discuss more. Thanks. Andrew

General FAQ
Is Claremont McKenna College "Need-Blind"?
Yes, our admission policy is "Need-Blind." This means that your admission is based solely on your academic record, personal achievements, talent, and potential as a CMC student. Your family's financial situation is not considered and has no bearing on your admission decision.
How can I afford Claremont McKenna College?
CMC's substantial endowment allows the College to be need-blind, to meet full need of all eligible students and to be relatively generous in ways that need is met.
Does CMC offer academic scholarships?
Although CMC's Financial Aid program is primarily need-based, the college also offers academic scholarships. These scholarships are awarded by the Admissions Office, and questions regarding applications, eligibility, and determination of merit scholarships should be directed to that office.
How do you determine financial need?
In order to qualify for need-based financial aid you must show "financial need."
Determination of Financial Need
Tuition & Fees, Room & Board, Books & Supplies, Miscellaneous & Transportation
The amount that you and your parents should be able to contribute |
How do you determine my family contribution?
In order to qualify for financial aid, your financial need must be determined through the criteria established by an approved "need analysis" formula. This formula estimates the amount both you and your family should be able to contribute toward your education, based on information you report on your CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE and FAFSA. CMC uses a more in-depth formula to establish family contributions for institutional aid eligibility.
How do you determine my student ?
Your expected family contribution includes a contribution from you the student. The student contribution is determined by the greater of:
A minimum of $1,650–$2,250 (according to grade level)
50% of your total income (minus standard allowances)
Parent Contribution + Student Contribution = Family Contribution
How do I determine if I am an Independent student?
For federal aid, the student must meet at least one of the following criteria: born before 01.01.89 (for 12-13 aid); are married; have children (or dependents other than a spouse) who receive more than half their support from you during the aid year; in foster care, or dependent/ward of the court, or both parents are deceased at any time after age 12; veteran of the US Armed Forces (as of 06.30.13 for 12-13 aid); working on a degree beyond a bachelor's degree; be serving on active duty in the US Armed Forces for other than training purposes, including National Guard or Reserve enlistee called up for non-state purposes; be an emancipated minor or in legal guardianship; after 06.30.10, been determined to be homeless by school district or emergency shelter, or been determined to be self-supporting and at risk of being homeless by homeless youth center.
NOTE: Colleges that give private (non-federal) aid expect a parent contribution even if the student meets one or more of the above criteria
How are outside scholarships handled?
Scholarships awarded by various organizations and businesses are generally used to replace the self-help (work-study) portion rather than college grant of your financial aid package.
What is the average financial aid package?
Claremont McKenna College students come from very diverse backgrounds. Consequently, CMC provides financial assistance to students who come from a variety of income situations as it may pertain to household size, number of siblings enrolled in college and sometimes other unique circumstances. This includes students who have very limited resources as well as students who have substantially more resources but still need assistance to meet educational costs. Hence, family income ranges vary for students who qualify for need-based financial aid.
Is financial aid available for transfer students?
Because of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Claremont McKenna College cannot share information about students over the age of eighteen without the prior written consent of the student. If your child is over the age of eighteen but would still like you to be able to discuss their financial aid with our office, please have them complete a FERPA Student Information Release Form and list you on it. Without this form, we cannot legally discuss their financial aid award or file with you.
Who should I contact if I have more questions?
Please feel free to contact our Financial Aid staff. You can email the Financial Aid staff at firstname.lastname@example.com.

These lights provide crisp and clear light. They have eliminated the uneasy feeling I used to get driving at night in the mountains. And for the money, it was hard to justify spending double on the competitor's bulbs. I highly recommend these for the daily driver seeking better lighting.

As more and more families across America are affected by Alzheimer's disease, many teenagers as well are becoming aware of this heartbreaking brain disease - from personal experiences in their own families, watching friends and neighbors or involvement in community service.
Recognizing this, the Alzheimer's Foundation of America (AFA), a national nonprofit organization, has created a division specifically for teens, AFA Teens. Its goals include raising awareness among teenagers and the general public about Alzheimer's disease and related dementias; providing education, counseling and support to young family members; enabling teens to share feelings with other teens and experts; and referring teens and their family members to supportive services.
In a further effort to provide an outlet for teenagers to think creatively about Alzheimer's disease and to engage the younger generation in this cause, AFA offers the AFA Teens Video Competition for teens ages 13 to 19. AFA will award $500 to the grand prize winner and $250 to the first runner-up. For more information on this scholarship and other scholarship opportunities, conduct a free scholarship search today!

The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Essay Contest is the nation's most prestigious honor for elected public servants. The Award was created in 1989 by members of President Kennedy's family to honor President John F. Kennedy and recognize and celebrate the quality of political courage that he admired most.
The Profile in Courage Essay Contest invites high school students to consider the concept of political courage by writing an essay on a U.S. official who has chosen to do what is right, rather than what is expedient. A "Profile in Courage" essay is a carefully researched recounting of a story: the story of how an elected official risked his or her career to take a stand based on moral principles.
Students are asked to write an original and creative essay of less than 1,000 words that demonstrates an understanding of political courage as described by John F. Kennedy in "Profiles in Courage." Students should use a variety of sources such as newspaper articles, books, and/or personal interviews to address this year's essay topic.

With so much riding on whether or not you get in, applying for college can cause even the most confident students some serious anxiety. And with so many factors to consider like high school rankings, SAT/ACT scores, GPAs and community service hours, it's important to understand that more often than not, colleges are also factoring in a student's ability to pay...even when they say they're not. Insert outrage here.
Just last Friday, George Washington University's website claimed to evaluate applicants without considering their financial need (also known as a need-blind admissions approach) but now they're clarifying that policy: It now reads that while applications are first reviewed without consideration of need, "at the point of finalizing admissions decisions, we must balance a student's financial resources with the university's aid budget. This practice of being need-aware allows us to meet as much need of as many students as possible." Why the sudden transparency, GWU? Turns out that the school's new senior associate provost for enrollment management's recent interview with The GW Hatchet revealed that she characterized the university's policy as need-aware as opposed to need-blind. The problem? By being need-aware for years and suggesting otherwise, the university appears to not only have violated the Statement of Principles of Good Practice of the National Association for College Admission Counseling but encouraged low-income students to apply (and pay a hefty application fee!) on the false pretense that the university was need-blind. (For more on this story, click here.)
The ability to pay for college has long been a major factor when it comes to gaining admission but to blatantly advertise otherwise is undeniably uncool. What do you think of GWU's current predicament? Should the university face serious repercussions? Let us know in the comments section.

The Dell Scholars Program enables more under-served students with financial need to achieve their greatest potential through higher education. The Program seeks to reward students who leverage their high school experience to prepare for college, taking challenging classes and participating in college-readiness programs, while taking care of other responsibilities outside of school. High school seniors who have participated for two years in an approved college-readiness program, such as AVID or Upward Bound, while maintaining at least a 2.4 GPA are eligible to apply for the Dell Scholars Program, which carries a scholarship award of $20,000.
The scholarship application focuses primarily on a student's dedication to college success, asking questions about your non-scholastic activities and responsibilities, the challenges you face, the steps you've taken to prepare for college, and the amount of financial support you need for college. Dell Scholars are students who have the drive to push themselves to earn a bachelor's degree.

Can college students correctly answer basic questions about federal student financial aid? Researchers from CALPIRG, the California Public Interest Research Group, sought to find out, asking California community college students three questions about financial aid. The results of the survey were published this week. The majority of students did not do so well, with over half of students answering one or zero questions correctly.
How would you do? Students were asked to say whether the following three statements were true or false (the questions below are paraphrased from the report):
The answers:
Knowing About Aid Can Boost College Success: At this point, it's becoming fairly well-documented that not enough community college students apply for federal student financial aid, despite the fact that many are eligible. While some students don't apply because their schools do not participate in federal aid programs, others don't apply because they don't know they're eligible for aid. The results of the CALPIRG survey suggest that this is a fairly substantial group of students. Namely, 13 percent of students surveyed didn't get a single question right, 44 percent of students answered only one question correctly, and only 2 percent of students who did not apply for aid got all 3 questions, compared to 10 percent of students overall.
Additionally, the survey shows that many students are loan-averse, with almost half of students saying they would drop a class or an entire semester than take out a student loan to cover books or other expenses, and students showing nearly as much willingness to put their books on a credit card than to take out a federal loan for books. A full 57 percent of surveyed students saying they would only borrow as a last resort or would not borrow for college at all. With additional research suggesting that many community college students are not balancing work and college effectively and that their reluctance or inability to borrow is hurting their chances of graduating, more financial aid education is important.
Community college students are not the only college students who may need help learning about financial aid. If you found that you answered one or more question incorrectly, you may want to review information about paying for school. We have a wide variety of student resources available that can help you learn about financial aid programs and requirements and maximize the amount of aid you receive.

One of the most important steps you'll need to take in the financial aid application process is applying for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. The Department of Education starts accepting the FAFSA Jan. 1 of each year, which just so happens to be tomorrow. So start your new year off right by filing that financial aid document, or filing a renewal FAFSA if this isn't your first time. State financial aid deadlines fall as early as February, so it's best to get a head start and know how much funding you can expect come next fall.
Both the FAFSA and renewal FAFSA are available online through Federal Student Aid, an office of the U.S. Department of Education. Completing the FAFSA online will speed up processing and leave less time for you to worry about how much financial aid you'll be receiving. Remember that it doesn't cost anything to fill out your FAFSA - the FAFSA is free - and some agencies will charge you for filling the application out for you. Once you complete the online form, you'll be able to check its status, make any corrections as needed, and print your Student Aid Report once that is ready. (Your Student Aid Report summarizes what you've filled out on your FAFSA, and provides you with an Expected Family Contribution, or the total you and your family would be expected to come up with to fund your education.) If you aren't comfortable filling out your FAFSA online, you can submit a paper form, but it does take longer to process than the online form.
In order to complete your FAFSA, you'll need the following:
We have a number of resources available to those filling out their FAFSAs and preparing to apply for federal aid. Browse through our site so that you know exactly where to begin, what to expect, and how to file the application successfully, because if you do make mistakes you may delay the processing of your FAFSA. Happy New Year!

Despite recent trends of more students across the country enrolling at institutions of higher learning, many students and their families remain mostly uninformed and unprepared to navigate the college and financial aid application process, according to a report issued yesterday called "Planning for College: A Consumer Approach to the Higher Education Marketplace."
The report, from MassINC, a think tank in Massachusetts, looked at decisions students and families need to make when applying to and paying for college, and the information they need to make those decisions. It found that students and parents currently have great difficulty "getting the most out of their college dollar," as the price of higher education only continues to rise.
Perhaps even more alarming is that families have started borrowing more to pay for college, without considering risk and the rate of their return. Related to increases in student borrowing amounts, an article in The Chronicle of Higher Education yesterday looks at the idea that doctoral students finish faster if they take out large loans. The most obvious answer why is that taking out more student loans allows the students to take more classes, and quit part-time jobs that may have been reducing their college costs. It's a choice students must make every day - should you sacrifice some comfort to reduce your student loan debt, even if it means taking longer to complete your degree? It's a personal decision, but students should be aware that they'll be expected to start repaying any debt once they graduate.
The Massachusetts study also found that students and families had little knowledge of tax benefits and college savings plans, and how to compare them. For example, there are 118 different 529 Plans, and the resources out there do little in the way of pointing consumers to the advantages and disadvantages of each. Families and students also admit to knowing little about the actual sticker price of colleges, as that often depends on the funds available to assist incoming students, an unknown when those students first apply.
The report's authors suggest families and students must become more like "savvy consumers" who are able to understand and successfully manipulate the college and financial aid application process to their advantage. The process should also be made less complex, an idea that is already being explored by federal legislation such as the Higher Education Opportunity Act. Finally, families need reliable measures about the educational experience that colleges and universities offer beyond the annual rankings we see in the Princeton Review, for example. According to the report, while the U.S. Department of Education is providing increasingly consistent and accessible indicators, such as graduation rates, this branch of the college-bound decision remains the weakest.

Current high school and college students are probably too young to remember when MTV actually played music videos. It was a glorious time for sure but after hearing this next announcement, I think they will like the network's new direction just fine.
The NYT's The Choice blog revealed that instead of launching another mind-numbing reality show, the music channel and the College Board have joined forces for the Get Schooled College Affordability Challenge. The contest – which is being underwritten by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation – is open to current and potential college students interested in creating an innovative digital tool that will help more students obtain funds for school. The prize for the winning individual or team? A cool $10,000, as well as a $100,000 budget to bring their idea to life.
A statement released yesterday stated the contest was created to make it easier for students "to navigate what can be a confusing financial aid maze." This metaphorical roadmap will definitely be a useful one: Each year, countless students are forced to postpone or abandon their dreams of higher education because they cannot pay for school but the Get Schooled creators hope their program will play a role in raising college completion rates.
The contest will run through December 17th so if you think you have what it takes to win, submit your idea here. Best of luck to all who enter!

3D sports producers are starting to get the hang of it, judging by this weekend's cable and satellite broadcast of the Yankees vs. Mariners game, brought to you from Seattle.
DirecTV, Cox, Verizon, FiOS, Comcast, Cablevision, Time Warner Cable and some regional services brought the first major league 3D baseball game to HD subscribers in the New York and Seattle areas.
HD Guru Gary Merson gives the broadcast a qualified thumbs up:
The telecast gave a new perspective to the game, highlighting the physical space and interaction of the fielders as well as the pitcher to the batter like no other prior broadcast. You need to see it to appreciate it. My perspective shifted from distant spectator in a 2D HDTV broadcast to an umpire's eye view and "you are there" immersive feel.
True to form, however, Merson notes some "distracting and annoying technical glitches."
Among them: the treatment of the electronic scoring graphics.
Merson explains:
Like the World Cup in 3D, the score graphic is placed in front of the screen (called negative Z-axis); while the field view perspective is behind the screen. This creates a brain/eye conflict, and can contribute to fatigue. I plea to the network powers, please get the graphics to be at the screen plane whenever there is a distant field view.
Despite his usual gripes, detailed on the HDGuru.com website, Merson concludes, "Overall, the debut demonstrates how sports will drive 3D adoption."

SACRAMENTO, Calif.- Tuesday the California State Auditor's Office released results from nine different investigations into "improper governmental activity" from April of last year to June of this year.
One of those investigations were allegations made against the California Correctional Health Care Services and Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, specifically the Soledad Correctional Training Facility.
Central Coast News reported the allegations and talked to several sources who worked for CTF who claimed the Director of Nursing, Angelia Britt and another supervising nurse falsified nurse timesheets. The auditor's report revealed the supervising nurses over paid about $8,600.

For the practicum, each participant in the practice sessions will need a copy of Seeing My Time. If your practice client is a child or adolescent, it is essential that at least one parent participate in the practice sessions as well. Therefore you should order:
- One copy of Seeing My Time for an adult client (or a college student)
- Two or more copies of Seeing My Time for a child or adolescent client
We offer course participants 10% off all books purchased up to and during the course. When you register for the course, you will receive a discount code.
Other Materials
During the course you will also need access to
- Post-It flags
- Small standard Post-It notes
- Highlighter pens
- A large dry erase board (optional, highly recommended)
We will remind you of the materials you will need before each session.
How do I find a practice client?
Past clients or students, family friends, and family members can all make an excellent practice client. The Sklar Process has been used successfully with individuals 4th grade through adult. However, if your practice client is a child or adolescent, at least one parent should attend the sessions as well. Parental participation is key to success for individuals in this age range. Your practice client will need to be willing to meet for roughly an hour a week for seven or eight weeks.
You are responsible for finding a practice client. Obtaining a practice client is essential for this course.
What if I need to miss a class?
Don't worry! All the webinar sessions will be recorded and available to you in case you miss a class or want to review the lecture. However, we request that you participate in at least six of the webinars live. We don't want you to miss your chance to share and ask questions.
Can I get credit for this course?
The Introduction to Teaching the Sklar Process meets the requirements for professional development/continuing education credits in a number of fields and disciplines, however requirements vary and we STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU CONTACT YOUR ORGANIZATION BEFORE THE START OF THE COURSE. We would be happy to help you with this process (firstname.lastname@example.com).
How exactly does the webinar work? Do I need special technology?
The webinars are very user-friendly. You will need access to the internet with a computer or tablet. The only additional technology you will need is a headset with a microphone.
Each week we will send you an email before class and you will enter the webinar "class room" with a single click. Inside the "classroom" you will be able to see and hear Marydee and her slide show. You will also be able to raise your (virtual) hand and speak using your microphone during the webinars. You do not need a camera and no one will be able to see you during the classes.
We will have technology support available to answer your questions and help you with any difficulties that arise during the webinars. We know that for many of you, this is your first webinar. If you have any questions, please contact us. We want to make this a wonderful experience for you!

Maybe yes and maybe no ... but probably no. You lefties gotta stop thinking that conservatives are evil or against the poor, the fact is many of them started out poor themselves but they were willing to work and keep their nose to the grindstone until they got their slice of the pie. Some liberals did the same thing but there are also a number of them who think the government and the wealthy should take care of them, something I just can't seem to wrap my head around. No doubt this discussion is a long way from being resolved.

Investors need more information about how they are protected when seeking fee-based financial advice, according to a survey of U.S. investors released recently by TD Ameritrade Institutional and conducted by Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates Inc.
The survey, a follow-up to the firm's 2004 survey, shows that 43 percent of investors responding were not aware that stockbrokers and investment advisors offering fee-based advice provide different levels of investor protection (compared with 41 percent in 2004).
TD Ameritrade was prompted to conduct the follow-up survey after SEC Rule 202(a)(11)-1, commonly known as the Broker/Dealer Exemption rule, was adopted in April 2005. The rule allows stockbrokers to offer services similar to a registered investment adviser without being held to the fiduciary standard of care and conflict of interest disclosure required of RIAs.
"It's no surprise that investors are confused when stockbrokers offer services through ads and sales materials that appear identical to those provided by RIAs," said Tom Bradley, president of TD Ameritrade Institutional. "Investors deserve to know there's an important difference between RIAs and stockbrokers. Only RIAs have a fiduciary obligation to act in their clients' best interest."
As part of the rule, brokerage firms offering fee-based advice are now required to include standard disclosure in brokerage account applications, advertisements, and sales materials that reveals, among other things, that an investor's account is a "brokerage and not an advisory account," and that the investor's and broker's "interests may not always be the same." After reading this required disclosure, the survey found that 66 percent of investors believe that the new disclosure does not sufficiently inform clients of their protections and 79 percent indicated they would be less likely to seek advice from a brokerage firm as a result.
According to Bradley, TD Ameritrade plans to launch a campaign that will help RIAs communicate the protection benefits they provide. Campaign details will be released during the summer.
Penn, Schoen, and Berland conducted 1,000 interviews representative of investors in the United States. Overall, the margin of sampling error is +/–3.09%. Interviews were conducted online between April 28 and May 1, 2006. More results of the survey can be found at www.amtd.com/governance/advocacy.cfm.

APRN Scope of Practice Expansion Bill Threatens Safety of Patients Speak Out for your Patients and Specialty
| Print |
The 2014 Legislative session is around the corner. You may recall during the 2013 Legislative session, the APRNs introduced a bill (HB 2251) which would dissolve the collaborative practice agreement between a physician and an APRN. The bill did not advance but the bill is getting attention for the 2014 Legislative session. This proposal eliminates any requirement that APRNs work with physician supervision or collaboration, and would allow nurses to practice medicine and surgery without any statutory limitation on the functions they could perform. The state chapter of Americans for Prosperity (AFP)–a conservative national advocacy group focused on economic policy – has decided to support the advanced practice nurses in their bid for independent practice authority.
KAFP will work collaboratively with Kansas Medical Society and others to oppose this bill. "Only physicians have the education, expertise, and experience necessary to ensure the highest quality of care for patients," states Carolyn Gaughan, CAE, Executive Director. "The physician-patient relationship is the very core of medicine, and we will work to keep it that way." To that end, KAFP is developing talking points and will contact members who are constituents of key legislators to contact their legislators and discuss the issues with them.
We don't fully understand AFP's reasons for involvement but we view it as a possible game changer. Please watch for e-mail on the issue and speak to your legislators if contacted to do so. Your voice can make a difference!
Please help us by contacting the legislator in your area and express your support for laws and regulations protecting patient safety. You may find your legislators here. For more information contact Carolyn Gaughan @ firstname.lastname@example.com.

For a long time now with testing of alot of different driver versions (and both reference drivers from nvidia aswell as asus drivers etc) I find OFP a black & white adventure when playing nightmission.
Problem is that everything seem to be in without color, grass, bushes, vehicles etc got no color what so ever, even with maximum color vibrance ON (which boosts colors alot in daytime missions).
Lucky for me it seem that everyone else I know that has nvidia based cards have the same problem.
Any solution to this except buy radeon 8500 or something ?

May 18th, 2010: I chose "Emily" in this comic because yesterday Emily and Jenn and I were researching "no fear" and found the best site ever, and I've already done entire comics about the name "Jennifer". Sorry, scratch that "best site ever" thing, I meant the SICKEST site ever. It is by a man named Joel: http://www.angelfire.com/de/sickestpageever/nofear.html. I put the full URL there so you can see just how sick a page this is. Then I registered www.sickestpageever.com because Joel had somehow missed out on this very important part of running an internet business. Joel, wherever you are now... I've got your back.
When I first typed that last bit I wrote "just how suck this page is"; that was the worst typo I could possibly make because I feel the exact opposite!
Also when I first typed that most recent sentence I wrote "that is the worst typo I could possibly male"; that doesn't even make sense.
Anyway THIS CONCLUDES TYPO UPDATE 2010 To make sure the best gifts ever in time get to you when you want them, here are the HOLIDAY SHIPPING DEADLINES. Orders placed before these dates will get to you in time for Christmas! – Ryan
December 5th: All shipping methods except U.S.P.S. First-Class Package International Service� are safe.
December 6th: International orders made not selecting U.S.P.S. Priority Mail Express International� shipping will likely arrive in January.
December 11th: USPS FIRST CLASS and STANDARD may not make it in time and neither will USPS EXPRESS MAIL INTERNATIONAL.
December 16th: ALMOST NOTHING IS SAFE. USPS EXPRESS is the only safe USPS option.
December 19th: A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE (IF THINGS PLACED ON OR AFTER THIS DATE ARRIVE BY THE 24TH, THAT IS)

Reviews for Special Banana Nut Bread(38)
Sort By :
I just love this recipe. I don't ever make the glaze. It's so yummy, who needs it? My one change is that I use glazed pecans, like "pecan pie" glazed or honey glazed, that I chop rather than plain pecans.
Took one loaf to work and it disappeared immediately and lots of compliments. This is definitely a keeper. The orange glaze really gives it something extra. This will be my banana bread recipe from now on!
I made this for our church coffee hour, but I omitted the glaze to make it less sweet.
The entire cake was gone within minutes, and people were actually taking slices home!
LOVE this recipe! I will definitely make this again!
I made large and small muffins and how moist and flavorful they are, amazing. I cut back the sugar to one cup rather then two. Would have been way too sweet for me. Next time I am going to try 3/4 cup of sugar. It's just a matter of tasting the batter and if it needs more add it. I always under estimate the sugar and it usually works for me. If your having a party try the mini cup or the regular cup cake pans these will be the hit of the party. You can't go wrong with the recipe.
This bread is wonderful. I wanted to try it out so I only made 1/2 recipe. Just a note, the full recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar. I halved the recipe and used about 1/2 cup of sugar. It is plenty sweet. Next time I will make two loaves. Thanks for the great recipe.

I've written about SSDs several times since I first adopted the technology three years ago, and there's no doubt that replacing a spinning hard drive with an SSD is the best way to boost overall performance of an existing PC (or Mac). I've owned three SSDs in total, and am about to replace my current model – a 128GB Crucial C300 – with something newer, faster and bigger (in storage capacity).
As is my custom when upgrading computer components, I've spent hours researching various reviews, benchmarks, real-world user observations, and recommendations from trusted online sources to find the best SSD available. And in this particular hardware treasure hunt, I've had the welcome (and rare) experience of finding almost every source of information pointing to a single choice:

Our cluster is locked in a LAN room which has one KVM enabled terminal and a dedicated A/C. The cluster will be used by students who are doing parallel programming, postgraduate students who are doing cluster projects and various of our p.h.d's will probably use it for their research. This means that our beowulf cluster will have to have some limited connectivity with the university network. >Do you want a one way, or two way connection? I was thinking of allowing ssh access to the cluster from outside (ie. port forward ssh connections to the master node). I will probably allow outgoing masq connections since users may way want to access network drives (for example, students may want to save work on their network drives on our department's student machine). > For security purposes, I never forward ip from the > beowulf to the > outside and tightly limit outside traffic to the > gateway node. > I agree that one has to be very security conscious, thats why I am thinking of allowing only ssh traffic in the beginning. We are thinking of limiting access to our university's IP address. These restrictions can be relaxed if there are genuine reasons for doing so, but at the moment there are not any.
