Austin O'Brien Movies
Fresh-faced Austin O'Brien made his mark as a movie child star before settling into the TV series Promised Land in the latter half of the 1990s. Oregon-born O'Brien began acting as a child in TV commercials. By his pre-teens, O'Brien made the jump to films in the virtual reality thriller The Lawnmower Man (1992). O'Brien soon earned the dubious distinction, however, of starring as the boy who gets to join his action idol onscreen in the notorious Arnold Schwarzenegger flop Last Action Hero (1993). Less tarnished by the experience than his muscle-bound co-star, O'Brien soon moved on to fill Macauley Culkin's shoes as Anna Chlumskey's male foil/friend in the sequel My Girl 2 (1994). Despite appearing as the Whiz Kid in Ron Howard's esteemed space blockbuster Apollo 13 (1995), O'Brien was back to roles in young teen fare with The Babysitters' Club (1995). After starring as a young hacker pitted against the evil title character in the sequel Lawnmower Man 2: Beyond Cyberspace (1996), O'Brien moved to series television when he was cast as Gerald McRaney's son in the Christian family drama Promised Land. During the series' 1996-1999 run, O'Brien also guest starred several times as his Promised Land character Josh on the hit series Touched By an Angel. After Promised Land ended, O'Brien headed to college to study his other creative passion, music.

Not long after the death of her mother in a car accident, Kelly (Elisabeth Moss) and her father Jesse (Greg Evigan) move to New Orleans. Their new house is reportedly haunted--and Kelly is convinced that the ghost is begging for her help. Jesse, however, is more skeptical, and with the assistance of Kelly's troublesome friend Cole (Austin O'Brien) he tries to prove that the "haunting" is actually a manifestation of Kelly's own guilt feelings. As it turns out, however, both Kelly and Jesse are right! Evidently intended for theatrical release, Spirit was first seen in the US as a cable-TV offering on the Lifetime channel. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Only Once
Two young people learn a difficult lesson about the consequences of their moral choices in this drama. Greg (Austin O'Brien) and Kellie (Britt Leary) are two teenagers who are in their senior year of high school. Greg and Kellie are both bright, well mannered, good students, and active members of the Church of Latter Day Saints. Greg and Kellie are also dating, and have fallen deeply in love. Like many teenagers, Greg and Kellie are filled with a natural curiosity about sex; their religious faith and the moral structures with which they were raised have made them aware that it is best for a couple to wait for marriage, but their budding passion gets the better of them, and Greg and Kellie decide to sleep together "just once." However, that one night proves to have ramifications that could last a lifetime when Kellie discovers she's pregnant. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Touched by an Angel: Vengeance Is Mine
This is the first episode of a two-part story, which originally concluded on the Touched by an Angel spinoff series Promised Land. Monica (Roma Downey) and her fellow angels once again pay a visit to the family of Russell Greene (Gerald McRaney), on the one-year anniversary of the traffic accident in which Russell's ne'er-do-well brother Joe (Richard Thomas) killed two people. Though Joe has ostensibly reformed, he is still not quite out of the woods: Sandra Mills (Karen Silas), whose husband and son were killed in the accident, has sworn to put Joe in his grave. In a curiously parallel development, Russell's wife Claire, who teaches reading to Death Row inmates, tries to help condemned prisoner Darlene (Tracy Gold) reconcile with her family. The episode ends in a cliffhanger, with two lives (and maybe more!) in the balance. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Touched By an Angel: Joe's Return, Part 1
This opening episode of Touched by an Angel's fourth season is actually the first half of a "crossover" story, with the conclusion appearing on the spinoff series Promised Land. Heavenly caseworkers Monica (Roma Downey) and Tess (Della Reese) are dispatched to the town of Chicory Creek, home of their friend Russell Greene (Gerald McRaney) and his family. At the same time, Russell's no-good brother Joe (Richard Thomas) is involved in a reckless-driving accident in which two people are killed. True to form, Joe runs away to avoid prosecution--but not before posing as the "good samaritan" who has rescued the only other survivor of the crash! Joe then makes a beeline to Russell's house, where despite a far-from-warm welcome he insists upon a reunion with Nathaniel (Eddie Karr), the son he deserted years earlier. Throughout the rest of the episode, Joe demonstrates repeatedly that he may well beyond redemption--meaning that Monica and Tess REALLY have their work cut out for them this time! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Touched By an Angel: Amazing Grace, Part 2
Originally an episode of the Touched by an Angel spinoff Promised Land, this is the conclusion of a two-part story begun on Angel (and as such is included in the current Angel syndication package. Having been chosen to act as the "eyes" for temporarily inded angel Monica (Roma Downey), young Joshua Greene (Austin O'Brien) is himself rendered sightless in a drive-by shooting. Dr. Serena Hall (Lynn Whitfield) holds Michael Burns (George Newbern), the man who brought Joshua to the inner-city Denver neighborhood where the shooting occurred, responsible for the tragedy, but both Monica and friendly beauty-shop owner Queenie (Jenifer Lewis) do their best to alleviate Michael's guilt feelings. Meanwhile, Joshua's dad Russell (Promised Land star Gerald McRaney) rallies the neighborhood to take a strong stand against gang violence. Evidently, this episode was intended as the pilot for a new series starring George Newbern, which never got off the ground; however, the Denver-ghetto setting would be utilized again during Promised Land's third season. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Touched By an Angel: Amazing Grace, Part 1
In this first episode of a two-part story, Tess (Della Reese) pays a visit to the Greene family, the protagonists of the Touched by an Angel spinoff series Promised Land. She informs Joshua Greene (Austin O'Brien) that God has reserved a special purpose for him, specifically act as the "eyes" for the temporarily blinded Monica during her next assignment. Hitching a ride with one Michael Burns (George Newbern), Joshua and Monica end up in a rundown Denver neighborhood, where Michael's grandfather runs an inner-city mall. Here the travellers befriend lunch-counter owner Mary Harding (Esther Rolle) and her grandchildren Calvin (Sean Nelson) and Chanice (Myriah Darden), and also beauty salon proprietor Queenie (Jenifer Lewis). Unfortunately, the neighborhood is rife with tension over a dangerous band of "taggers" who have covered the walls with gang graffiti--and just before the episode ends, tragedy strikes one of the principal characters. Though the concluding half of this story originally aired as an episode of Promised Land, it is currently included in the Touched by an Angel syndication package. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Touched By an Angel: Promised Land
Originally telecast September 15, 1996, the third-season opener of Touched by an Angel is actually the pilot episode for the spinoff series Promised Land, which debuted two days later on September 17. Down in the dumps because she has failed her most recent assignment, Heavenly caseworker Monica (Roma Downey) is referred to the even more desperate plight of laid-off factory worker Russell Greene (Gerald McRaney). Suffering one setback after another, Russell thinks he has hit rock bottom when a promised job in his home town of Chicory Creek fails to materialize. But with the help of Monica and her angelic supervisor Tess, Russell and his family find a new purpose in life when they begin travelling throughout the country bringing help and hope to those less fortunate than themselves. In addition to Gerald McRaney, this episode serves to introduce the entire cast of Promised Land, including Wendy Phillips as Russell's wife Claire, Celeste Holm as his grandmother Hattie, Austin O'Brien and Sarah Schaub as his children Joshua and Dinah, Eddie Karr as his nephew Nathaniel, and Ossie Davis as philosophical family friend Erasmus Jones. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

ER: The Secret Sharer
Though Ross (George Clooney) has been redeemed in the eyes of his superiors thanks to his heroic rescue of a 12-year-old trapped in a flooded culvert, he still gets into a violent argument with Greene (Anthony Edwards), who, it is learned, is suffering from problems above and beyond professional pressures. Elsewhere, Carol Hathaway (Julianna Marguiles), who the previous year had attempted suicide, forms a close bond with a 17-year-girl (Miriam Reichmeister) who has likewise tried to end her life -- and in the process, a serious wedge is driven between Carol and Shep (Ron Eldard). Lewis (Sherry Stringfield) discovers that the woman (Angela Paton) she is considering as Suzy's babysitter is suffering from a terminal blood disease. And Benton (Eriq La Salle) finds out that Jeanie (Gloria Reuben) has not quite divorced her husband, Al. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Loosely based on a short story by Stephen King, The Lawnmower Man was the first film to explore virtual reality technology and boasts a dazzling collection of computer-animated sequences. The story concerns the slightly-mad scientist Dr. Lawrence Angelo (Pierce Brosnan), who as part of a secret government agency called Cybertech has been experimenting with something termed "intelligence enhancement." By using drugs and virtual reality technology, Angelo has managed to boost the IQ of experimental chimps. But he also makes them more aggressive and, bit by bit, they go insane. When one of his animal subjects goes on a rampage, Angelo decides to go for a human guinea pig instead -- Jobe Smith (Jeff Fahey), a slightly retarded man who cuts his lawn. Not only do Jobe's intelligence and sex-drive improve thanks to Angelo's regimen, but he also develops extrasensory perception. As Jobe's mental and emotional state keeps increasing, so does his strength. As he gains more power, Jobe becomes angrier and more vindictive until he vows to get even with all the town's people that patronized him and treated him badly. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

A young boy and a brilliant scientist attempt to thwart an evil cyber-villain's attempts to take over the world in this inferior sequel to the 1992 sci-fi adventure The Lawnmower Man. Former Max Headroom star Matt Frewer replaces Jeff Fahey in the title role of Jobe, the mentally challenged gardener transformed into a brilliant, computerized megalomaniac by a series of virtual reality experiments. Though destroyed at the end of the first film, Jobe finds a way to return to digital life, and he sets out in search of an important computer chip that will grant him frightening levels of power. A group of young hackers, led by Peter (Austin O'Brien), discovers this nefarious scheme and turns to retired virtual reality pioneer Ben Trace (Patrick Bergin) for help. Chase scenes and gunfights follow, both in the virtual world and the real world, as Trace and the boys try to figure out how to defeat Jobe. Despite a more blatantly futuristic setting, the sequel's special effects fail to match the standards of the first film, and the confused storyline proves more illogical than suspenseful, limiting the film's appeal to die-hard genre aficionados. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

Arnold Schwarzenegger appears as a pumped-up Shakespearian hero while an announcer bellows, "Something is rotten in Denmark -- and Hamlet is taking out the trash!" This gag sets the stage for the post-modernist action epic The Last Action Hero. The film concerns Danny Madigan (Austin O'Brien), a lonely eleven-year-old boy who escapes from his bleak New York City reality by glorying in the action adventure movies of his favorite film character, Jack Slater (Arnold Schwarzenegger). Danny's friend is an elderly movie projectionist, Nick (Robert Prosky), who lets Danny into the shabby Times Square movie theater where he works so Danny can see Slater's new movie. He hands Danny a magic ticket given to him years ago by Houdini, and when Nick rips the ticket and gives Danny the stub, Danny finds himself catapulted from the theater into the back seat of Slater's speeding sports car in "Jack Slater IV." Danny becomes Slater's helper as Jack battles a trio of nefarious bad guys --Benedict (Charles Dance), Vivaldi (Anthony Quinn) and The Ripper (Tom Noonan). But things get out of hand when Benedict steals Danny's magic ticket stub and transports himself into Danny's reality. Benedict and The Ripper proceed to wreak havoc along Broadway, forcing Slater to cross into reality to get the villains and, in the process, learn about blood and pain. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Based on the characters from the series of best-selling books by Ann M. Martin, The Baby Sitters Club concerns a group of seven girls, each edging into their teenage years, who are close friends and have formed a co-operative baby-sitting service. Their business has become so successful that the girls decide to expand their horizons and start a summer day camp for kids; however, they soon discover that not all the adults in the neighborhood think this is a good idea, and they learn a lesson about cooperation and responsibility. Meanwhile, Kristy (Schuyler Fisk), the leader of the group, lives with her mother (Brooke Adams) and stepfather (Bruce Davison); when her father (Peter Horton), an undependable wanderer, shows up, he asks Kristy not to tell her mother that he's in town, and Kristy is torn about what to say. Stacy (Bre Blair) has another sort of dilemma to deal with; she's tall and pretty and has met a boy who likes her. However, he thinks she's older than she actually is, leading her into a dating dilemma that she may not be ready for. The Baby Sitters Club was the first theatrical feature for actress-turned-director Melanie Mayron; Schuyler Fisk is the daughter of actress Sissy Spacek and director/designer Jack Fisk. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

"Houston, we have a problem." Those words were immortalized during the tense days of the
Apollo 13
lunar mission crisis in 1970, events recreated in this epic historical drama from
Ron Howard. Astronaut Jim Lovell (Tom Hanks) leads command module pilot Jack Swigert (Kevin Bacon) and lunar module driver Fred Haise (Bill Paxton) on what is slated as NASA's third lunar landing mission. All goes smoothly until the craft is halfway through its mission, when an exploding oxygen tank threatens the crew's oxygen and power supplies. As the courageous astronauts face the dilemma of either suffocating or freezing to death, Mattingly and Mission Control leader Gene Kranz (Ed Harris) struggle to find a way to bring the crew back home, all the while knowing that the spacemen face probable death once the battered ship reenters the Earth's atmosphere. The film received an overwhelmingly enthusiastic critical response and a Best Picture nomination, but lost that Oscar to another (very different) historical epic, Mel Gibson's Braveheart. In 2002, the movie was released in IMAX theaters as Apollo 13: The IMAX Experience, with a pared-down running time of 116 minutes in order to meet the technical requirements of the large-screen format. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

I have noticed a problem in the forums where there will be multiple topics created about the same thing. For example, there were something like 4 topics created, on the same day, about a petition on whitehouse.gov. I don't mind if a topic is repeated a few days later, but it is annoying when half the page of topics are all about the same thing and were all created on the same day.
I don't know of any way to fix this problem. One idea is to allow up/down voting on forum topics. Another idea I had was to have an option for users to flag a topic for an administrator to review the topic, and if it is a repeat, it could be deleted.

Hi guys,
Firstly I just want congratulate you for creating such an impressive body building community. I've been visiting the forum regluarly and have been learning lots, but this is my first post. My question for your bright and experienced minds is this.....
I'm just coming off a 10 week cut where I've gone from around 16% bf to around 10 - 11% bf. Unfortunately in the process I've lost some muscle mass, not much though. Rather than continue to diet hard, I've decided to increase my cals to just below maintenance or at maintenance and try putting on pure lean mass and then follow with a mild cut. I'm trying to be realistic and aim for around 3 lbs over 4 - 5 weeks.
I've read good things about testopro, so have decided to use it during the mini lean bulk cycle. However, I want to stack it with Stoked or Glycobol and I'm not sure which (I can't afford all three). Will stacking Testopro with Stoked result in a far greater increase in test levels than testopro alone? If not then stacking it with glycobol might be a better option?!
Anyway....all views gladly welcome.
Thanks for listening.

WASHINGTON (May 3, 2005) – Comprehensive immigration reform – including a broad legalization program – is the goal of a national campaign among Catholics in the United States to be launched Tuesday, May 10, in Washington, DC. Church leaders will announce a new effort to educate and galvanize Catholics of the need for "justice for immigrants," and to challenge President Bush and Congress to adopt reform measures built on principles issued by U.S. and Mexican bishops in 2003.
The four principles include: legalization for the undocumented; expanded opportunities for legal entry for work and family reunification; establishment of an appropriate and effective temporary workers program; and re-establishment of due process rights and other legal safeguards.
The official launch of Justice for Immigrants: The Catholic Campaign for Immigration Reform.
Twenty Catholic organizations with national networks have form a national campaign designed to unite and mobilize a growing network of Catholic institutions and individuals in support of a broad legalization program and comprehensive immigration reform.

by Jaime Daremblum
Chilean finance minister Felipe Larraín has called it "the most exciting thing going on today in Latin America." Colombian president Juan Manuel Santos believes it is "perhaps the most significant and profound integration process in the history of Latin America." A recent headline said it has created "a new Latin American superpower." It has also been hailed as a "bridge to Asia" and "a promising yardstick of Latin America's prosperity."
"It" is the so-called Pacific Alliance, a free-trade bloc that was first outlined in the April 2011 Lima Declaration and was officially established in June 2012. Its four members are Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru — four countries with a long record of supporting free markets and open commerce. Over the past year, these countries have abolished tariffs on 90 percent of all goods they trade with each other, and have also taken many other steps (such as eliminating visa requirements, merging stock exchanges, and launching a scholarship program) to integrate their economies. Next week, their presidents will meet in Colombia to sign yet another multilateral agreement.
The Pacific Alliance nations account for more than one-third of Latin America's total GDP, a similar share of its population, and roughly half of its global trade. They are the highest-ranking Latin American countries in the World Bank's 2013 Ease of Doing Business Index, and they are also some of the region's fastest-growing economies. "Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Peru will grow an average 5 percent this year," notes John Paul Rathbone of the Financial Times, citing IMF data, "while Brazil, Argentina, and Venezuela, will grow an average of 2 percent."
Not surprisingly, many other nations want to join the Pacific Alliance, and the list of "observer" countries has grown to include Australia, Canada, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Japan, New Zealand, Panama, Spain, and Uruguay. As that list suggests, the trade bloc has attracted governments from well beyond Latin America's shores. Indeed, it is considered a promising vehicle for boosting economic cooperation and integration between Latin America and Asia. In other words, it is seen as a valuable complement to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) free-trade deal that is now being discussed by Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States, and Vietnam. Colombia is eager to join the TPP talks, and the Pacific Alliance will help Bogotá make its case.
Hopefully the trade bloc will also encourage Brazil to move away from the protectionist policies that are holding back its economic development. Whereas the Pacific Alliance countries have become Latin America's biggest champions of free trade — Mexico has actually signed more free-trade pacts than any other nation on earth — Brazil remains a stubborn opponent of trade liberalization, and it has actually become more protectionist under President Dilma Rousseff, who took office in January 2011. (Two years ago, Brazilian finance minister Guido Mantega complained that rising imports had left his country "under siege.") This divergence in economic policies can be seen, not only in the World Bank's Ease of Doing Business Index (in which Brazil ranks a lowly 130th), but also in the Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom: The Pacific Alliance countries all rank among the top 50 freest economies worldwide, while Brazil ranks 100th.
That's why it was so disappointing when, on May 8, Brazilian diplomat Roberto Azevedo was chosen over Mexican economist Herminio Blanco to be the next director-general of the World Trade Organization. Azevedo has consistently defended Brazilian protectionism, while Blanco was an architect of NAFTA. As the Wall Street Journal pointed out following his selection, "Mr. Azevedo is by all accounts a charming diplomat who won because of support among developing nations. Yet he won that support in large part by helping to scuttle the Doha round of free-trade talks. Mr. Azevedo was Brazil's chief Doha negotiator, and opposition to freer trade in manufacturing by Brazil, India, South Africa, and other emerging economic powers made a worthwhile Doha deal impossible."
The good news is that Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru are increasingly viewed as the four most successful large economies in Latin America. In fact, analysts at Nomura, the Japanese financial giant, have predicted that Mexico could supplant Brazil as the region's biggest economy by 2022. The combination of strong growth in the Pacific Alliance countries and sluggish growth in Brazil is helping convince other Latin American governments that free trade and open markets are better than Brazilian-style protectionism. (Roberto Setúbal, the CEO of Latin America's largest bank, recently said that Brazil "clearly" had to change its economic model.)
Unfortunately, the Obama administration still has not pushed for a hemispheric free-trade zone of the sort championed by George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Yes, administration officials are trying to negotiate a TPP deal, but they have depicted TPP as part of their "pivot" or "rebalancing" to Asia. Apart from belatedly signing the Colombia and Panama free-trade accords — both of which originated under the Bush administration — President Obama has done very little to promote greater U.S. trade with Latin America. Indeed, while the Pacific Alliance countries are busy pursuing economic integration across the hemisphere, the United States remains a mostly passive observer.

I was wary of this seat because I didn't know if it was sturdy but I'm pregnant and picking up a two year old to put him on the toilet was getting old fast. This has been the ticket. Here's what you need to know though:First of all, it won't fit on the toilet on top of the toilet seat. You have to raise the toilet lid AND the toilet seat and then the seat is at the right level. Second, the seat itself is very soft which has helped my son as he learns to go.Third, the legs and seat are meant to swivel easily. This makes it super easy to pick up the seat by the handles and set the seat against the wall when an adult needs the toilet. BUT, this also makes it so that, while sitting on the seat, the child can push down on the handles and the legs/step will come up off of the floor. This doesn't endanger the child at all because the seat is still firmly on the toilet but it can be a distraction for why you're on the potty in the first place. I usually have my feet in front of the legs and that's enough to hold them down so that he's not playing when he should be "busy". I do love SO much that this answers my need for not picking my kiddo up all the time while also answering my son's desire to always "do it myself". That's the BEST part of this. I would never want him to use it without my supervision but that would be the case even with an on-the-floor potty. This way I can just be there and it uses up his energy and not mine (which is my daily goal anyway).As far as it not being for boys... I'm not sure I understand that comment from people. Most grown-up boys I know still have to hold things down if they were to sit on the toilet instead of standing so, as far as I'm concerned, I'm just training my kiddo early. He fits fine on the seat so he's not having to balance precariously in order to keep things held down. From what I can tell, the only other option is to have a cup in front of him and that would only create one more thing that he'd have to get used to when transitioning to a big potty. Just my thoughts.

We really liked this seat while my son was going through the "sit on the potty but don't really do anything" stage. The handles are great and he is really able to get up on the toilet easier and feels more secure. I would probably give this seat 5 stars if we had a girl. However, my son turned a corner about a week ago and is going potty all the time. When he goes pee, this seat does not at all help keep it in the toilet. The bump that's supposed to be a deflector doesn't do anything. He's either shooting over the seat or under it - either way he makes a mess. We've conquered the going in the potty part, though we're of course always there with him, we shouldn't also have to have him leaning all the way forward or pointing his parts a certain way so as to not make a mess. We're going out today to get a new seat. If you have a boy - keep looking.

Comments about Mommys Helper 1012115 Mommy's Helper Cushie Step Up Potty Seat:
I purchased this seat because regular potty seats don't fit well and slide around on our elongated toilet seats, so we would have to lift my daughter on and off the potty. She loves being able to use the "big girl" potty by herself using this seat.

Good Idea, has limitations
By Lauren's Grandma
from Oklahoma City, OK
Tried to use the potty seat on an elongated bowl, on an elevated toilet. After the seat dropped into the bowl a couple of times when little girls wiggled a bit, I had to modify it to keep it from dropping in. 20 month old and 4-year old both like to set it up and take it down themselves. I wish the product description had mentioned it wouldn't be recommended for elongated toilets, and I wish they had an option for longer rails so the step wouldn't sit at an angle on an elevated toilet.
OK, but too big for little ones
By VRRios
from Rutherford, NJ
My son is a short 26 months. The step gives him the leverage to go number 1 however the seat is still a bit large that he feels he's falling in. Perhaps as he gets a little older he will fill it out. Don't attach to the toilet so pretty unsteady as well.

By Cindy
from Mineral, VA
We have this and a different one that sits on the floor. Our Grandson prefers this model. The seat is comfy therefore he will sit still so we are able read and play games while he is learning to use the big boy potty. It fits on our toilets, we have the higher ones. It stores nicely when not in use and very easy to wipe clean.

PERFECT Potty Accessory
By April the Mommy-Professor
from Atlanta, GA
About Me First Time Parent
We leave this "ladder potty" in our guest/hall bath at all times. Due to this device, my little girl is totally independent in her going #1 now...she entered her "I'm a 'big girl' stage" and insisted on getting rid of her "baby potty." We formerly had to go to the bathroom with her, lift her onto the big potty, wait for hr to go, and then take her down. Now, she goes #1 ALL BY HERSELF -- goes in there, climbs up, does her business, climbs down, wipes, and flushes. The only time we even have to assist her is after she goes #2 (to wipe her afterward). The handles are an essential feature for climbing up&down and holding on. The product tends to slip or tilt a little while she is going up or down, but is steady and will not fall. My daughter took a couple of days to get used to it, but is not afraid at all now as she knows that it will NOT fall, even if it shifts a bit while she is in motion. Portability is a plus...she takes it when staying with grandparents, family, etc. It is easy to take on and off should an adult need to use that bathroom. It is just the right size for a toddler's fanny and there is no way to fall in! WE LOVE IT! Highly recommend!!!
By First time mom
from Louisville, KY
This is wonderful! Fits perfectly on our toilet. Took her a day to get the hang of climbing up by herself. Second attempt to potty train within 6 months, and now she is good to go, took 3 days.My parents, who watch her during the day, have a very high toilet (elongated), so the step is very slanted. We put a sturdy box under the legs to make it the right height. The seat part fits fine on the elongated bowl. My parents also bought a round Dora seat that just sits on top, but it absolutely does NOT fit, is NOT sturdy, and she can't get up there by herself.
Great product. Grandson loves it.
By Pappa G
from Huntington Beach, Ca
[...] Easy to use the boy can set it up himself. And take it down by himself.

Avoiding Credit Card Scams – Tips
18 06 2012Watch out for scammers, as they are getting more and more creative. They'll take an old con and give it a new twist. Some go high-tech, employing texting, cameras or software. Others embrace the old ways, using nothing but a voice and a telephone. Leaving working families wipped out and left with nothing but bank balances in the red. Although credit card fraud is on the rise and credit card fraud on the Internet is rising even more dramatically; many Internet shoppers know that the reality is that it's actually much safer to enter your credit card number on a secure online order form than it is to give your credit card to a waiter at a restaurant. Credit and charge card fraud costs cardholders and issuers hundreds of millions of dollars each year. While theft is the most obvious form of fraud, it can occur in other ways. For example, someone may use your card number without your knowledge.
Below are some usefull tips to help protect from credit card fraud.
Things to do:
- Sign the back of your cards as soon as they arrive.
- Carry your cards separately from your wallet, in a zippered compartment,or another small pouch.
- Keep a record of your account details in a secure place.
- Watch your card carefully during the transaction, and get it back as quickly as possible.
- Void incorrect receipts.
- Save receipts.
- Open bills promptly and reconcile accounts monthly.
- Report any questionable charges.
- Notify your card company in advance of a change in address.
Things not to do:
- Lend your card to anyone.
- Leave cards and receipts lying around.
- Sign a blank receipt.
- Write your account number down anywhere that other can see.
- Give out your account number over the phone unless you're making the call to a company you know is safe.

Seven Days Says:
Plot twists and turns abound when a famous mystery writer instigates a real-life game of cat and mouse in Anthony Shaffer's play, presented by Northern Stage.
Murder Most Foul
Leave it to a famous mystery author to pull off the perfect murder. When crime writer Andrew Wyke contacts his wife's lover in Anthony Shaffer's Sleuth, audiences can only assume her flame's fate is in the bag. Or is it? Twists and turns abound in the Tony Award-winning cliffhanger, which debuted in 1970. Complicated motives and the two characters' mutual love of "the game" keep fiction indistinguishable from reality in this white-knuckled tale of revenge. Get in on the battle of wits as Northern Stage sets the scene for thrills and chills. Opening night is, appropriately, Halloween.

Seagate. All you need to know.Pros: Three year OEM warranty. Lots of space. What more can you want? Cons: Not a complete con (see other thoughts), but Seagate changed from a 5 year to a 3 year warranty OEM. Something to be aware of, all the same. Other Thoughts: Little disheartened they changed their OEM warranty to three years instead of five, but at least I've never needed it! I have never once had a Seagate drive fail, and this one is no different. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good HDDPros: Fast, affordable hard disk. I got it when HDD prices were still low. Cons: None. Did you find this review helpful? |

50/50Pros: I bought two of these drives, one was dead, one worked fine. I am not 100% sure it was the drive, since I had so much trouble with my original motherboard that I may have damaged the HDD or the cable in my wrath.. Cons: 50/50 working ratio for this one Did you find this review helpful? |
SAVE THE BOX!!!Pros: Arrived promptly. Cons: Lasted less than 1 month. Costly to send back to manufacturer. Other Thoughts: I installed it shortly after receiving and worked for a while and transferred all my data to it then about 1 month later it started making the click of death (didn't know that was the sound until a few weeks later and outside of Newegg warranty) and then was no longer detected as a drive on my rarely used computer. Good thing I had a backup!! Was going to return to Seagate, but didn't want to pay $13 to order the proper box plus shipping, tracking, and insurance to send it back. My advice - make sure you have a backup and KEEP THE BOX (and clamshells) - they are expensive and hard to find. Did you find this review helpful? |
ExcellentPros: I've had 8 of these operating in a NAS file-level backup appliance I built for 3 years. I've written a petabyte to them and have finally decided to just retire them. They will be replaced with two 4TB 6.0GB/s WD's to save space... I think it's time the stigma of these devices being used in a production environment be lifted. Random R/W i/o sustains at 190MB/s on a 3ware 9750 (writecache enabled with BBU) between 4 drives configured in a RAID-5. Sequential R/W i/o sustains at 385MB/s. Cons: Hot. All of them run at 34-36 degrees C at full usage even with the case cover removed and a giant 24" box fan blowing on them (I was desperate in attempts to cool...) But, I came to the realization that these things just run hot. And they do it well and for a long time. The datacenter I work in really doesn't allow for gauging noise levels, but I've read several several hundred reviews regarding noise and clacking complaints. Other Thoughts: Seagate and Western Digital crushed the hard drive market by producing superior products ahead of their time. I would never trust my data to anyone else.

Very very good hdPros: - price Cons: - A "chunk" sound when the disk is "power off", and reading begins. This only happens with one disk. Other Thoughts: I bought this HD to Uruguay, and didn't have any problems. Did you find this review helpful? |

Windows 8 implements a radical new user interface called Metro for desktop PC's, which has so far received a mixed reception. However, there's many other changes under the hood and one of those is how password security is handled, which we look at here. It's a fact of life, that in today's modern world, we have to remember a plethora of passwords and PIN's, which can be daunting. This leads to security issues as users end up writing down passwords and/or create very insecure ones which can be easily guessed. Windows 8 aims to uphold strong password security, while at the same time, easing the burden on the user. Also, passwords can be obtained in various ways by miscreants, such as phishing, keylogging, guessing, and cracking. Windows addresses each of these problems in three main ways: 1 Protect against phishing and keylogging Using these tools protects your computer against the kind of malware that can access your entire computer, such as viruses and trojans. 1A: Secure boot: this uses the new Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), which replaces the ancient BIOS in modern motherboards and uses digital signing, which blocks bootkits and rootkits from attacking the system at the lowest level. 1B: SmartScreen: this warns against visiting known bad websites or running suspect applications. It builds up a picture of which are good and bad by using a reputation system. 1C: Windows Defender: previously protecting against just viruses, it has now been expanded into a full security suite, protecting against the usual suspects, such as viruses, worms, bots and rootkits. 2 Protect against guessing and cracking Long and complex passwords do wonders for security and make system admins very happy. However, they're a nightmare for users to remember and type in - even for the admin... Windows 8 eases the task of creating, using and managing unique and complex passwords. 2A: Store accounts: centralized store for logins to various websites. This is similar in the way that web browsers store this information, except that being done in Windows, it's available to any other or application or browser that can make use of it. 2B: Sync passwords: you have 100 logins stored on your home PC, but are now using your friend's PC and can't get to them – very inconvenient. Windows 8 uses Windows Live to allow password synchronization between the two PC's – assuming the second PC is trusted. 2C: Virtual smart card: this is a software-based version of a smartcard. It uses the Trusted Platform Module found in many business PC's and some motherboards for DIY PC's and works wherever physical smart cards work 3 Protect against your own forgetfulness Users shy away from using strong passwords, because they're likely to forget them, especially if they have many to remember. Windows 8 makes it easier to recover from a forgotten password. 3A: USB recovery: passwords are stored in an encrypted USB memory stick that can be used should a password be forgotten. 3B: Reset from another PC: you can reset your password from any PC using Windows Live. 3C: Two factor authentication: you can prove that you're the rightful owner of an account by linking it to a mobile phone or email address ANALYSIS These features all sound wonderful and will indeed make life much easier for the user. However, some of these features would actually appear to potentially create a large attack surface for miscreants to have a pop at. Let's take a look at them: 2A: Store accounts: so any web browser and application can use the information stored here? An application such as that virus which just got onto the PC perhaps? This is a problem, because nothing is 100% secure, regardless of how many layers of security are put in. This feature might be best left switched off. It's also best not to allow any web browser to remember logins, either. 2B: Sync passwords: this requires the second PC to be clean of infection and properly trusted. By "trust", this also means the physical security around it, such that the user isn't shoulder surfed, for example. Use with caution. 2C: Virtual smart card: the details of this would have to be looked into a little more carefully to weigh up the pros and cons of this system. One potential issue could be the versions of the TPM module on the motherboard and smartcards used, as they may not have directly equivalent features, meaning that security compromises might have to be made. The user should be made well aware of any compromises like this before being asked to use this feature. 3B: Reset from another PC: again, how secure is that other PC and the environment it's situated in? Use with caution. As Windows 8 isn't even at the beta stage yet, firm conclusions and criticisms shouldn't be made right now. However, the issues pointed out are inherent in the feature being implemented and should therefore be monitored very carefully. Source: PC World
Much better Qubit. Bravo. As for you fears all you have to do is look at "3C: Two factor authentication: you can prove that you're the rightful owner of an account by linking it to a mobile phone or email address" This is how google mail works. When they hack and reroute my home phone THEN Ill worry. Until then Windows 8 sounds more secure then anything else we have used thus far........except maybe linux lol
Thanks, MM Indeed that two-factor authentication is excellent, which is why I didn't flag it up in my analysis of potential problems.
2a: it's just making password manager part of the the os. Nothing new or dangerous. FOSS DEs had them for years.
Great analysis, I completely agree on all the points. I'd also like to add that it's not a good idea for anybody to rely exclusively on USB recovery, because the USB device could be lost or stolen.
You need a live account to log in to win8 at least it is now in the DP version. Also the Microsoft Security Essentials will be a bootable from USB stick in Win8 too.So you have a clean (just update it on the usb)version if at all Win8 gets infected...there was a Win7 ver in beta for download ...will look Well it is Windows Defender ...Here is the link.http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/windows-defender-offline-faqdownload here 32bit and 64bit http://connect.microsoft.com/systemsweeper
Though time will tell. Google's implementation of two step authentication was pain in the rear at first but they sort of worked it out now. I still miss SMS verification for every account settings entry but they apparently think that's not necessary. Because now, once verified, anyone can just log in and change the very critical phone number that does the verification and Google doesn't even bother to notify the previous number owner if he allows the modification. I hope Microsoft will think of such things as well...
Much better format, Q. Allows a reader to read the facts, then choose whether or not they want your thoughts on the matter.

"Let me pick up the pieces that lay scattered. Let me mend the heart, that I once with a lie shattered. Let me heal your wounded heart, and put the pieces together. Let me take you by the hand, and lead the way. Let me hug you tight and push your fears away. Let us be happy and erase all the hurt!..."

Basil C S

"We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love."
Tom Robbins
"Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses."
Ann Landers
"I'm taking back my freedom! FOR I'M SICK AND TIRED OF LIVING LIFE UNDER YOUR WINGS! I'm breaking lose, to be FREE. Free from all the harm and all the mental scars. I choose freedom over any fear or any pain. For I know the outside world awaits with open arms and loving hearts. And now I will salute you and let you know, that is time for me to go. Time for us to part our ways, I now welcome the joy of this brand new day... With that being said, I'm moving forward..."
"I know we only live once. But that doesn't mean live fast and die young. There is more youth six feet under! Than the elderly in nursing homes."

is it a Visiontek? don know that company, we dont have those in denmark but good idea to register, then you should get some extende service or whatever?
the wife said i can so is the 6XXX really going to come out soon ? so should i get a 58XX or wait for 4XX ?
Visiontek is a US based company, another point being they have a Lifetime warranty on their parts aswell
OK i played BC2 @ 1600x1200 on HIGH with AF=16x and AA=16x with max view distance and i was getting from 90 to 53 never under 50. im downloading 3dmark06 right now and im gonna run a pass at it. i still havnt overclocked it yet
OK here ya go and im impressed!!! This is my old BFG GTX 285 OC+ This is my Visiontek 5850 @ stock Even without physx it still beats the GTX 285. once i get a feel for overclocking this card then i will post some OC scores.
Badass run!!!! However, games is what impresses me the most out of ATI cards, especialy the 5xxx series
i thought you had the 1st version? my sapphire sucks a bit when it comes to overclocking, i cant raise the voltage with the non reference card
3d mark 06 has no physX... only Vantage does that... plus PhysX is Gimmick anyways. Not to mention... that score gap is not even close to being representative of the asskicking a 5850 will give a gtx 285.
i mean do yours have a single or 2? but nevermind, as long as they work together and everything runs cool then its good
