Steven R. Fenster Professor of Business Administration
Stuart Gilson has been a Professor of Finance at the Harvard Business School since 1991. He is an expert in valuation, corporate finance, and corporate restructuring. He has written on a broad range of topics, including corporate bankruptcy and debt workouts, tracking stock, equity spin-offs, corporate downsizing, bank mergers, and employee buyouts. His current research focuses on techniques for valuing bankrupt and distressed companies, and on strategies for investing in distressed company securities. In previous research he has investigated the determinants of financial leverage and capital structure in highly leveraged or distressed companies. He has also studied how distressed firms hire, fire, and compensate their senior managers and directors.
Gilson's research has been published by leading academic journals, including the Journal of Finance, the Review of Financial Studies, the Journal of Financial Economics, Financial Analysts Journal, Harvard Business Review, and the Journal of Applied Corporate Finance. His research has also been cited in a number of national news and business periodicals, including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Institutional Investor, Business Week, The Economist, and U.S. News and World Report. He has been interviewed about bankruptcy issues by National Public Radio. In 1996 he won the prestigious Graham and Dodd Award for his article "Investing in Distressed Situations: A Market Survey." For each of the last five years he has been named one of the nation's top bankruptcy academics by Turnarounds & Workouts magazine. He is listed in Who's Who in Economics.
Recently a book of his case studies on corporate restructuring was published by John-Wiley & Sons, entitled Creating Value Through Corporate Restructuring: Case Studies in Bankruptcies, Buyouts, and Breakups.
Gilson has served as a consultant and taught executive programs for a variety of organizations and companies. He has served as an advisor to the Unsecured Creditors Committee in a large Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, and serves as a testifying expert on corporate finance, bankruptcy, and restructuring matters. He serves on the academic advisory board of The Turnaround Management Association.
Gilson has taught MBA and executive courses in corporate restructuring, corporate finance, financial analysis, mergers and acquisitions, and investment banking. At Harvard he currently teaches the course Creating Value through Corporate Restructuring in the School's MBA program. He also chairs and/or teaches in a number of senior Executive Education programs at Harvard, including Corporate Restructuring, Mergers & Acquisitions, Finance For Senior Executives, and the Advanced Management Program.
Gilson holds a BA in economics from the University of Manitoba, a Master's in Economics from the University of British Columbia, and a Masters of Science and Ph.D. in Finance from the University of Rochester. Prior to joining the Harvard faculty he was a professor of finance at the University of Texas at Austin.
Creating Value through Corporate Restructuring: Case Studies in Bankruptcies, Buyouts, and Breakups
A collection of case studies illustrates real-world techniques, implementation, and strategies on corporate restructuring. Over the period 1981-1998, public companies with combined assets of over half a trillion dollars filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Over the same period, over 400 public companies underwent corporate spin-offs, divesting businesses valued at more than $250 billion. Each of these companies, and all of these dollars, were in some way or another involved in corporate restructuring. Gilson's case studies have been used extensively in executive programs and are perfect tools to refer to when faced with real-world corporate restructuring issues.

Mosaic News - 08/16/12: World News From The Middle East [VIDEO]
Iraq hit by wave of deadly bombings and shootings
Al Jazeera, Qatar
Presenter, Male #1
At least 22 people were killed and dozens were injured in a wave of attacks that hit central and northern Iraq.
Presenter, Female #1
The most violent attack struck the Dakuk neighborhood in the city of Kirkuk, when a car bomb exploded near the headquarters of the local security forces.
Reporter, Male #2
It was a bloody day, during which central and northern Iraq witnessed 15 explosions, including the detonation of seven car bombs, a suicide attack, and shootings in nine cities and towns, leading to many deaths and injuries, and destruction on a wide scale.
Reporter, Male #2
The most brazen attack started at dawn in the city of Kirkuk, when attackers planted four bombs around the home of a military officer. The explosions led to the death of the officer's brother, and injured six other members of his family.
Reporter, Male #2
Only a few hours later, a car bomb parked near a series of restaurants exploded, causing several deaths, injuries, and financial damage. Residents in the area say they reported the suspicious car to the police, but it was too late.
Guest, Male #3
The car was parked here. They asked us about the type of the suspicious car. A police car came by, and we told them that this car has been parked here since the morning. They walked towards it, then it exploded, inflicting deaths and injuries.
Reporter, Male #2
Forty-five minutes later, another car parked near a complex of government buildings exploded, wounding several people. In the Hussainiyah district, northeast of Baghdad, around 40 people were killed when a car bomb exploded.
Reporter, Male #2
In al-Taj, north of Baghdad, another parked car bomb exploded as a police patrol drove by, killing two civilians and wounding seven others. In Fallujah, 65 kilometers west of Baghdad, gunmen shot at a police patrol, killing four officers and wounding another three.
Reporter, Male #2
The attacks come days after gunmen described as fundamentalists carried out attacks in northern Iraq, killing 13 people. In July, 325 people were killed, making it the bloodiest month since August 2010.
Pakistan: Ten dead in sectarian attack
Al-Alam, Iran
Presenter, Male #1
One Pakistani soldier and nine gunmen were killed in clashes that followed an attack waged by gunmen on Minhas Air Base in central Pakistan's Punjab Province. The army's spokesman confirmed the death of all gunmen in armed clashes that lasted hours with members of the special forces. The gunmen attacked the airbase with rifles, bombs, and missile launchers.
Presenter, Male #1
The air base holds the Pakistani Aeronautical complex that manufactures Mirage and JF 17 aircraft. The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.
Clashes in southeastern Turkey on 28th anniversary of PKK
Al-Alam, Iran
Presenter, Male #1
Clashes erupted between Kurdish protestors and Turkish police members in several cities in Turkey's southeastern provinces. Protestors threw petrol bombs at police cars in the provinces of Hatay, Sivas, and Hakkari, and they tried to place barricades on the streets. The police responded with tear gas and water hoses, and arrested a number of protestors. These protests come on the 28th anniversary of the establishment of the Kurdish Worker's Party.
Bahraini king hails Syrian uprising while condemning foreign plot against his regime
Al-Alam, Iran
Presenter, Male #1
Bahraini political forces and activists condemned King Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa's speech, viewing it as a message of threats and intimidation long heard by the Bahraini people. The secretary-general of the al-Wefaq National Society, Sheikh Ali al-Salman, said the king's speech contains nothing new to comment on.
Guest, Male #2 (King Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa)
Constitutional state, and institutions, and separation of authorities, democracy and human rights.
Reporter, Male #3
Marking the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan, King Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa gave a televised speech, saying he considered the events in his country a foreign conspiracy, indicating that his government is dealing with those he described as advocates of strife.
Guest, Male #2 (King Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa)
Difficult times due to the on going foreign greed and conspiracies.
Reporter, Male #3
Also in his speech, the king turned to the situation in Syria and expressed sorrow over the violations and acts of violence occurring there. The speech was condemned by Bahraini activists and politicians, who noted that the regime has killed dozens of protestors and is still cracking down on demonstrations despite the fact that they're peaceful. They also criticized the king's cries over the violence in Syria, as the rifles of his regime's security forces have not stopped firing pellet bullets, and poisonous gas at unarmed civilians. His regime also called on Saudi forces to repress popular marches and destroyed dozens of mosques.
Reporter, Male #3
"A speech that does not have anything new to comment on," this is how the secretary general of the al-Wefaq National Society, Sheikh Ali al-Salman, referred to the speech as he congratulated the Bahraini people for the anniversary of their independence. In a statement it issued, al-Wefaq Society considered independence day a national occasion that confirms the country's independence, stressing on the importance of enabling the people to assert their right to be the source of authority. Al-Wefaq confirmed it is determined to continue to liberate power from the authorities and return it to the people. And with that, protests are continuing in several areas, under the banner "the people do not compromise," assuring the people's determination to attain their just right to determine their fate.
Reporter, Male #3
As usual, regime forces used pellet bullets and poisonous gas to crack down on protests, injuring a number of protestors. The violence of the regime's forces against civilians is an approach adopted by the regime to silence the voices of the critics, even if they are religious scholars. This violation was referred to in a statement by the Islamic Scholars Council in Bahrain, indicating its rejection to the Justice Ministry's intervention in the affairs of mosques and preachers. It expressed surprise over the double standards of the regime that turns a blind eye to preachers whose speeches are filled with insults against a sect that represents the majority in the country.
Bahrain: Activist Nabeel Rajab sentenced to three years in prison
BBC Arabic, UK
Presenter, Female #1
Today, a Bahraini court sentenced activist Nabeel Rajab to three years over his participation in unlicensed demonstrations. The trial against the residents of al-Muharraq, that includes the prosecution of Nabeel Rajab, has been postponed to August 23rd. A number of human rights organizations called on al-Manama to release the Bahraini political activist accused by the authorities of participating in acts that violate the laws of the kingdom.
Two powerful explosions rock Israeli Red Sea resort of Eilat
BBC Arabic, UK
Presenter, Female #1
Two powerful explosions rocked southern Israel's city of Eilat, located near the Egyptian border. The Israeli army said the explosions may be the result of Grad rockets launched from the Egyptian Sinai, but the source of the rockets has not yet been confirmed. The explosions did not cause any damage or injuries.
Reporter, Female #1
Two powerful explosions shook the Israeli city of Eilat, but their source is unknown. The Israeli army said the explosions that were heard in the city located near the Egyptian border may be the result of rockets launched from Sinai, and that their forces mounted a sweep of the area in search of rocket shrapnel, but did not find anything. In addition, there were no reports of any damages or injuries resulting from the explosions. Egypt denied launching rockets from Sinai, and said that it did not receive an official notice from Israel over the issue.
Reporter, Female #1
Eilat has been subjected to attacks in the past. Israel accuses armed Islamic groups of waging these attacks from the Egyptian territories. These explosions come days after an attack on some members of the Egyptian army in Sinai that claimed the lives of 16 Egyptian soldiers and officers. Egyptian forces are cleansing the Sinai Peninsula of armed and jihadist groups. Mona Sokar, BBC.
Presidential campaigns intensify as Somalia's election draws near
Press TV, Iran
In Somalia, politics has taken center stage ahead of the presidential elections due in late August. A veteran journalist is among those lined up to compete for the positions of president, prime minister, and parliament speaker. Yusuf Garaad, a former head of the BBC, has come to Mogadishu in hopes of becoming the next president the war-torn country in which many scribes have lost their lives. He is going up against more than 30 candidates, including current president Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, who seeks to remain in office alongside the current prime minister and parliament speaker.
Israeli deputy minister's aide meets with Syrian opposition
Press TV, Iran
The Israeli deputy minister's aide Mendi Safadi holds talks with the Syrian opposition as an official envoy of Israel. The meeting took place in Bulgaria with Deputy Minister Ayoob Kara's bureau chief and Syrian opposition groups. Safadi insists that his trip to Bulgaria was at the request of an unnamed government body. On Tuesday, the Syrian ambassador to Iran said his country is at war with an "axis of evil," accusing both the United States and Israel of fanning the flames of violence with the support of armed opposition groups.
Eighty killed in Syrian air raid on rebel-held town
Dubai TV, UAE
Presenter, Female #1
The growing crisis in Syria witnessed another tragic chapter yesterday as reports that over 80 people were killed in Azaz in the countryside of Aleppo in an air raid carried out by Syrian regime forces. These victims were added to the tally reported by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights that said the death toll in Syria has exceeded 23 thousand since the beginning of the revolution. Nay Ghabra has the details.
Reporter, Male #1
These are not training missions by the Syrian Air Force; rather, this is an air raid that unleashed all its rage here on Azaz in the countryside of Aleppo. The stated targets were members of the Free Syrian Army, or terrorists, as described by the authorities in Damascus. But the majority of the victims were women and children, who rushed out of their homes only to end up buried under the rubble.
Reporter, Male #1
The neighborhood near the Azaz city prison was also razed to the ground, and the mission to find survivors is as difficult as rescuing the injured. There is no way to threat them except through the border crossings with Turkey. Those fortunate enough to have made it there recount horrifying stories of what they witnessed.
Guest, Male #2
We saw MiG 23 fighter jets, or maybe MiG 27, and bombs that weigh 900 kilos that destroyed entire neighborhoods. They didn't destroy a home or two; they didn't kill one person, or targeted members of the Free Army. No, it was a deliberate attack on civilians.
Reporter, Male #1
News of the shelling, as with the victims, are not limited to Azaz. The regime forces hit several neighborhoods, including Salaheddine, as clashes continued between regime forces and the brigades of the opposition. The latest clashes between the two sides were halted after a military convoy was unable to reach the Bab al-Hawa crossing, as rebel fighters were able to destroy the convoy and seize a tank and capture an army captain.
Reporter, Male #1
These fierce confrontations continued in most Syrian cities, from Homs to Idlib in the north, reaching Damascus and its countryside to the south. They are accompanied by reports showing images of a deteriorating humanitarian situation. People rush to come here to get a loaf of bread in a time of war.
Presenter, Female #1
But bread isn't the only thing Syrians need; they also need urgent humanitarian aid. This, according to Valerie Amos, the coordinator for humanitarian affairs at the United Nations, who stressed the need for aid as her visit to Damascus concluded. Amos confirmed that over 2.5 million Syrians are in dire need of aid.
Guest, Female #2 (Valerie Amos, UN Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs)
Violence has become more intense, and all sides must do everything in their power to protect civilians as the humanitarian situation is worsening. When I was here last March, one million people were in need of humanitarian aid, according to our estimates at the time.
Guest, Female #2
But now, with the deterioration of the conflict and its affects on the economy and the standards of living, there are 2.5 million Syrians in need of such assistance, and we are working to update our plans and our request for funds. But the government and opposition must end the conflict and allow humanitarian workers to freely move around the country.
Israeli ambassador to US: Strike on Iran 'worth it,' even if it only delays nukes
IBA, Israel
Israel's ambassador to the United States, Michael Oren, says that an Israeli strike on Iran is worth it even if it only delays Tehran's march toward acquiring a nuclear weapon by two to four years. His remarks seem to be a response to comments by the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey, who said on Tuesday that Israel cannot stop Iran.
Food and gas prices expected to rise in Israel due to US drought
IBA, Israel
Israeli Ministry of Agriculture officials warned that food prices in Israel are likely to rise by up to 17 percent before the end of the year, saying that the price hike is due to the prolonged drought in the United States, which has triggered a rise in the cost of agricultural commodities. In addition, the value-added tax will rise one percent next month to 17 percent.
Knesset swears in 17th non-Jewish MK during special summer session
IBA, Israel
Knesset member Avi Dichter was sworn in as Minister of the Home Front, just two days after he announced that he would be leaving Kadima. The Knesset committee convened for a special session during the summer recess to approve the appointment. Shortly before Dichter's appointment, Ahmed Dabah from the Kadima party was sworn in as a member of Knesset in Dichter's place, the 17th non-Jewish member of the legislative body. The Arab MK is the father of nine children and owns a chain of supermarkets.
Iraq to strengthen economic, political ties with Iran
Al-Iraqiya TV, Iraq
Presenter, Female #1
Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Ruz Nuri Shaways visited Iran to discuss a number of political and economic issues with Iranian officials.
Presenter, Male #1
In statements issued to the media, Shaways described the meetings between the two sides as serious and frank.
Reporter, Male #2
In response to an official invitation by Iranian Vice President for International Affairs Ali Saeedlou, Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister on Economic Affairs Ruz Nuri Shaways led a high-level delegation's visit to the Iranian capital Tehran. The goal is to discuss developing political and economic ties that would lead to improving diplomatic relations and reaching mutually-beneficial agreements between the two countries.
Guest, Male #3 (Ruz Nuri Shaways, Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister)
The meeting was serious, frank, and held in a brotherly spirit that was exhibited by the brotherly officials of the Islamic republic. We hope to succeed in our meetings, and proceed on the right path toward improving and growing our ties through the implementation of agreements signed between the different ministries of the two countries.
Guest, Male #4 (Ali Saeedlou, Iranian Vice President for International Affairs)
This visit makes us very happy, especially since a number of Iraqi ministers are here. We would like to develop our ties with Iraq, and particularly economic ties. This is why we've been exchanging visits every once in a while.
Reporter, Male #2
The chairman of the National Investment Commission indicated that many opportunities are available for Iranian companies to help develop the country's infrastructure, including its electricity and basic services. He added that the National Investment Commission is trying to remove obstacles facing Iran's entry into the Iraqi investment market.
Guest, Male #5 (Sami Araji, Chairman of Iraq's Investment Commission)
As for investments, we informed them of our regulations and instructions for work in Iraq. God willing, we are committed to these regulations, both those of the United Nations and those required for collective work by the two countries.
Reporter, Male #2
Iraqi Finance Minister Rafi Issawi called for taking advantage of the meeting to discuss a series of stalled agreements, including a customs' cooperation deal and commercial trade, in addition to agreements on avoiding double taxation and the establishment of free economic zones.
Guest, Male #6 (Rafi Issawi, Iraqi Finance Minister)
We held a meeting discussing the customs cooperation agreement, and tomorrow, God willing, if everything is ready, Iraq will sign the agreement with the Iranian finance minister. If the documents are not ready, then we will hold another session in Baghdad.
Reporter, Male #2
This visit was two-faceted; the first aspect was political, with the aim of strengthening diplomatic ties between the two countries. The second was economic, pushing for the implementation of cooperation agreements that benefit the economies of the neighboring states. From the Iranian capital Tehran, Alaa al-Khafajee, Al-Iraqiya.

The Brothers Grimm: Grimms' Fairy Tales48. THE BLUE LIGHT (continued)The soldier returned to the town from which he come. He went to the best inn, ordered himself handsome clothes, and then bade the landlord furnish him a room as handsome as possible. When it was ready and the soldier had taken possession of it, he summoned the little black manikin and said: 'I have served the king faithfully, but he has dismissed me, and left me to hunger, and now I want to take my revenge.' 'What am I to do?' asked the little man. 'Late at night, when the king's daughter is in bed, bring her here in her sleep, she shall do servant's work for me.' The manikin said: 'That is an easy thing for me to do, but a very dangerous thing for you, for if it is discovered, you will fare ill.' When twelve o'clock had struck, the door sprang open, and the manikin carried in the princess. 'Aha! are you there?' cried the soldier, 'get to your work at once! Fetch the broom and sweep the chamber.' When she had done this, he ordered her to come to his chair, and then he stretched out his feet and said: 'Pull off my boots,' and then he threw them in her face, and made her pick them up again, and clean and brighten them. She, however, did everything he bade her, without opposition, silently and with half-shut eyes. When the first cock crowed, the manikin carried her back to the royal palace, and laid her in her bed. Next morning when the princess arose she went to her father, and told him that she had had a very strange dream. 'I was carried through the streets with the rapidity of lightning,' said she, 'and taken into a soldier's room, and I had to wait upon him like a servant, sweep his room, clean his boots, and do all kinds of menial work. It was only a dream, and yet I am just as tired as if I really had done everything.' 'The dream may have been true,' said the king. 'I will give you a piece of advice. Fill your pocket full of peas, and make a small hole in the pocket, and then if you are carried away again, they will fall out and leave a track in the streets.' But unseen by the king, the manikin was standing beside him when he said that, and heard all. At night when the sleeping princess was again carried through the streets, some peas certainly did fall out of her pocket, but they made no track, for the crafty manikin had just before scattered peas in every street there was. And again the princess was compelled to do servant's work until cock-crow. This is page 192 of 269. [Mark this Page] Mark any page to add this title to Your Bookshelf.

By: Maria Von Trapp from 1955
With every passing year I realize more deeply how joyful our religion is. The more one penetrates into what it means to be Catholic, the fuller life becomes.
There is one great art that we are taught from our childhood and for which we cannot be grateful enough, and that is how to celebrate feasts. The little ones grow up hearing again and again: "Today is the feast of St. Joseph" "Next week is the feast of the Annunciation.. the feast of St. John... the feast of the Holy Family... the feast of the Assumption." And these are not words only. Soon the children discover that these days have a truly festive character. Later, when they grow up and learn to use their own missals, they find that Holy Mother Church prepares a feast for us almost every day of the year. Naturally, these feast days are not equally important. Two of them, the anniversaries of Our Lord's Resurrection and of the Descent of the Holy Ghost, are of such magnitude and solemnity that the Church assigns a whole week to them. She wants to teach her children to take time for celebrating. What a necessary lesson for us of the fast-living twentieth century, when time has become money and the most important even in people's lives - their wedding - has been reduced from the ten-day celebration of old to a ten minute formality at the Justice of the Peace!
For Easter and Pentecost the Church permits no other feasts to interfere. This is called "a privileged octave of the first order." There are other great feast days, such as Epiphany and Corpus Christi, Christmas, the Ascension, the fast of the Sacred Heart, and the feasts of the Blessed Mother, which also have an octave, and at last a commemoration of that feast is made each day.
If the first place is given to the feasts of Our Lord, the second is given to those of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Then come the holy angels, and they are followed by the saints who had a share in the plan of the Incarnation, as St. Joseph, St. John the Baptist, Peter and Paul and the other Apostles, whose feasts are always celebrated with special solemnity.
Then we are told to celebrate as a feast of dedication of churches, the anniversaries of the martyrdom of the saints, the commemoration of holy popes, bishops, teachers of the Church, confessors, virgins and all holy women. According to their importance these feasts will be more or less solemnly celebrated; but even a simple feast day is a feast day.
Once in a while there is a day in the calendar when we do not celebrate a feast. This is called a "ferial day." During most seasons these are few and far between, and it is all the more striking, therefore, to come to the six weeks of Lent and find that the Church has prepared a special mass for every ferial day and wishes her children to refrain from celebrating feasts during these weeks of penance. That makes the great Alleluia, which introduces the feast of the Resurrection, all the more jubilant.
Living through this cycle of festive evens every year, one cannot help but learn that one should not just live one's life, or spend one's life, or go through one's life, but celebrate one's life. Whether the days are filled with bliss or mourning, we have learned to live almost each one as a special feast day. As the Introit of many a Mass bids us: "Guadeamus omnes in Domino, diem festum celebrantes." ("Let us all rejoice in the Lord, celebrating this festival day.")
If the time from the First Sunday in Advent until Pentecost seems like one long uninterrupted celebration of the greatest mysteries of our faith, the time from Pentecost to the end of the Church Year appears much more sober.
The second half of the Church year is referred to in Austria as "The Green Meadow," because of the green color of the vestments on the Sundays after Pentecost, whereas, until then, they had been violet, red, or white. If the festive character of the first part of the year is comparable to the mountain chains of the Alps or Andes, the single feasts in the months after Pentecost are like isolated peaks towering above the green meadow.

Following a recent break up, I did as the newly single do and stayed in bed watching every episode of Grey's Anatomy and eating box upon box of instant mashed potatoes. Eventually gaining motivation, I decided that instead of hermitting myself, I should go date the shit out of Brooklyn. At bars, I started asking out every guy who was good in the face, sometimes under the guise of "Hey, I'm writing an article an article about cheap dates…"
Dating, however, can be a financial investment and a boring, time wasting nightmare. Who wants to blow 50 bucks and three hours on a meal with a psychotic oversharer? To date a lot, you need a low budget and a fun itinerary with an easy escape, which each of the following outings offer. Some may end well, some will end in 22 texts and a stalker, but isn't that the point? (more…)

April 8, 2008 at 8:00 AM ET
When the House Financial Services Committee meets again next week to discuss credit card reforms, they'll have something else to talk about -- a new way for credit card firms to raise your interest rate.
Discover announced recently that there's a new penalty for cardholders who exceed their credit limit, in addition to the $39 fee -- a higher interest rate.
Many consumers might not even realize that they can exceed their credit limit, and in fact the term has largely become meaningless. Card issuers give consumers what some call a "nominal limit," which is the credit limit printed on monthly bills. But nearly all allow consumers to exceed that limit by 10 percent or more (precisely how much is a secret), and then charge fees of $30 to $40 for each month the balance exceeds that limit.
In fact, credit limits might better be called "fee triggers." And now, you should think of them as interest rate hike triggers as well. More on that in a moment.
You might recall a minidrama that unfolded during a congressional hearing on credit card practices last month. The House Financial Services Committee had planned to hear from consumers complaining about credit card firm misbehavior at the March 13 meeting, but the witnesses suddenly refused to testify. The card companies, at the last minute, had demanded that each witness sign a waiver allowing the banks to discuss the consumers' personal lives in public, saying they needed the waivers in order to defend themselves. Given the timing of the demand, some saw it as an intimidation tactic by the banks.
Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, D-N.Y., who called the hearings to debate her proposed Cardholder Bill of Rights legislation, hopes to hold the panel discussion next week, with a negotiated settlement of the consumers' privacy concerns in place.
"These good people deserve to have their voices heard on this issue, and I believe it is imperative that this committee hear real world examples of how this credit card bill would help consumers," Maloney said.
If the meeting occurs, Discover has provided additional fodder for discussion. The card issuer has made subtle changes to its member agreement that give it another excuse to raise consumer interest rates. Beginning May 1, any time a cardholder exceeds the nominal credit limit twice, the penalty interest rate will be imposed. That's a steep penalty, and getting steeper, too. Also on May 1, the penalty "default" rate jumps from 29 percent to 31 percent for Discover members.
"This is a significant increase," said Bill Hardekopf of LowCards.com, adding that using a credit limit transgression as an excuse to raise interest rates is new to the industry. "Consumers should know of the pitfalls that come with exceeding your credit limit. It's no longer just a charge that might hit you on a one-time basis. It might have far reaching effects on your interest rate."
Discover defended the practice as a necessary way to balance the cost of serving risky customers.
"(Higher rates) are imposed due to the increased level of risk that cardmembers represent when defaulting on their bills or exceeding their credit limits more than twice per year," said Discover spokeswoman Laura Gingiss. The higher rate and over-limit fee only apply if members do not pay their bill by the due date, she said.
Other card issuers appear to have similar provisions in their agreements. One Chase Platinum Visa offer indicates the cardholder's rate may increase if "you exceed your credit line." At Bank of America, a cash reward card contains the following provision: "Each time your ... account balance is over the credit limit, we may increase each of your account's Standard APRs up to the default rate. "
Getting hit with the default rate is a credit card user's equivalent of banishment – and it's a costly one. A consumer with a $10,000 balance and a 15 percent interest rate who pays the minimum payment each month would pay $2,800 in a year and still owe $8,598 on that balance. But a consumer paying 31 percent interest would have to cough up $4,047 to meet minimum balance payments during that same 12 months, and yet would fall farther behind, with a remaining balance of $8,891.54.
Remember, in that example, nothing has changed but the interest rate. (If you'd like to run your own nightmare scenarios, BankRate.com has a handy calculator).
That means knowing your credit limit is more important than ever.
"In this economy people are being stretched and stressed more and more, people are charging more items on their credit cards and running up greater credit card balances, and coming closer to their credit limit," Hardekopf said. "I'm sure a significant number of people don't know what their credit limit is on each credit card they have."
It's not clear when the practice of tying credit limit excesses to interest rate hikes began. It's also often not clear to consumers why their interest rate has been increased -- recently, many consumers reported receiving rate increases even though they were paying their bills on time.
Many consumers might be surprised to hear that even approaching their credit limit can have costly consequences. "Credit utilization" is a key component of credit scores, so spending up to credit limits can knock significant points off of credit scores. In fact, according to credit score expert John Ulzheimer, consumers looking for the best score should try to use only 10 percent of their credit limit. That means those with $15,000 cards should try to keep their balances below $1,500.
KNOW YOUR LIMIT: It's easy -- and important -- to know your credit limit. It's listed on your bill. Card issuers sometime lower credit limits, so you should take a quick glance with every billing cycle
SIGN UP FOR WARNINGS: Some card issuers will send out e-mail warnings if your balance begins to approach your credit limit, says Hardekopf. Sign up for such warnings, which could save you a bundle in interest charges.
KNOW YOUR LIMIT ISN'T A LIMIT: Most important, shoppers should not rely on credit card issuers, or "transaction denied" messages at retailers, to avoid exceeding their limit. Card issuers will gleefully allow consumers to use more credit than they have, and charge handsomely for the privilege.

- Collection: Gramercy
- Brand: Momeni
- Material: 100% Wool
- Weave: Hand Loomed
- Styles: Contemporary Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 2' x 3', 3' 6" x 5' 6", 5' x 8', 7' 6" x 9' 6", 8' x 11', 9' 6" x 13' 6" and 2' 6" x 8'
- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
Llove the rug- colors great-only ends curl. Tried books to flatten- any other suggestions?
I ordered the small size to see if it would work in my room. The rug itself is very pretty and feels lush and soft. Unfortunately, I had to return it because the colors didn't quite work in the room. The yellow weave in the rug gives it a soft rust like color. If this color is what you are looking for, go for it.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Though styles have come and gone, beneath them all is the fundamental principal that Momeni rugs are created to touch our senses. The Momeni standard of quality, elegance, and sophistication has been recognized time and time again with America's Magnificent Carpet Award in Atlanta Georgia.

The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond
This effective gangster film on the notorious New York mobster Jack "Legs" Diamond is interspersed with moments of comic relief and was released just a few months after The Purple Gang shot their way across the silver screens in the U.S. Ironically, that gang and Diamond met their ends in the same year, 1931, and their rise was largely due to Prohibition. "Legsie" (Ray Danton) gets his name because he was a dancer, but he gets his reputation because he double-crosses anyone. He is a psychopath who works his way up the body count to the top of his own network of rackets. Along the way he meets and marries his wife Alice Schiffer (Karen Steele) and survives three attempts on his life that send him to the hospital each time. His reputation for "invulnerability," the inability of the police to touch him, gangsters who kill each other off, the racketeering with union bosses, and the hijacking of liquor shipments are all elements found in this film and The Purple Gang as well. Watch for a young Dyan Cannon in a bit part as Dixie, back when her first name was spelled like everyone else spells Diane. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Ice Palace
Based on the Edna Ferber novel, this engrossing period piece covers the triumphs, tragedies, loves, and sorrows of a few generations of Alaskan settlers between the first World War and the granting of statehood in 1959. Zeb (Richard Burton) is a local despot whose tough personality dominates the region. He is openly bigoted against the Inuit, and his greedy nature has led him to reject the woman he really loves to marry another with plenty of money. Thor (Robert Ryan) starts out as Zeb's ally and friend, but due to their diametrically opposed natures, that friendship turns into an entrenched hatred. In this unpredictable, harsh wilderness Zeb discovers that he ultimately cannot control his daughter and irony of ironies, he and Thor end up connected through the marriage of a son and daughter. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Space Master X-7
This confusingly-titled science-fiction thriller is both an artifact of its time and a surprisingly forward-looking film, in terms of plot. On the one hand, its plot makes it a kind of 1950's B-movie antecedent to The Andromeda Strain -- on the other, it owes a lot to the popular police procedural films and television shows of the decade or so leading up to its production. The title refers to an advanced US satellite sent into orbit, in part to gather and return samples of material from space. The latter includes a microscopic organism believed to be the same existing on the planet Mars which, so one scientist, Dr. Charles Pommer (Paul Frees), believes, is responsible for that world's red coloration. Pommer, who is permitted to take the sample to his home laboratory, is brilliant and single-minded in his work; but his intellect and ambition, coupled with his unstable personality and chaotic personal life, leads to disaster. He discovers that the organism, which he christens "Blood Rust," can multiply incredibly fast in Earth's environment, and attach itself to (and ultimately consume) any living host creature, including human beings. The alien organism proves his undoing, and he lives just long enough to warn project security chief John Hand (Bill Williams) of the danger -- but the warning comes too late to prevent Pommer's ex-wife (Lyn Thomas) from becoming an unwitting carrier of the organism. It's up to Hand and his assistant, Radigan (Robert Ellis), to find this woman -- whose identity they don't even know at first -- even as she tries (for purely personal reasons) to elude the authorities, not knowing of the danger she presents to herself and the world. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi

The Buccaneer
When Cecil B. DeMille was set to direct a re-make of his 1938 swashbuckler The Buccaneer and suddenly became ill, his son-in-law, Anthony Quinn, jumped into DeMille's jodhpurs. In this version, Yul Brynner plays the starring role of debonair pirate Jean Lafitte, who is contacted by General Andrew Jackson (Charlton Heston) to come to the aid of the United States when the British attack New Orleans during the War of 1812. Lafitte immediately falls in love with Annette Claiborne (Inger Stevens), the daughter of William Claiborne (E.G. Marshall), the first governor of Louisiana. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Spoilers of the Forest
Every time Republic Pictures head honcho Herbert J. Yates starred his minimally talented wife Vera Ralston in a film, the studio's stockholders began trembling in their boots. Like most of its predecessors, the 1957 Ralston vehicle Spoilers of the Forest just barely made back its cost. Vera plays Joan Milna, who shares several thousand acres of valuable Montana timberland with her stepfather (John Alderson). Coveting Joan's property, lumber baron Eric Warren (Ray Collins) sends out his foreman Boyd Caldwell (Rod Cameron) to persuade her to sell. Instead, Caldwell falls in love with the girl, vowing to protect her trees from the eco-unfriendly Warren. Republic's wide-screen Naturama process is shown to good advantage throughout Spoilers of the Forest. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Jeanne Eagels
Kim Novak is clearly out of her depth as legendary Broadway actress Jeanne Eagels, but one can't fault her for trying very hard. As this filmed biography gets under way, wide-eyed Eagels finds herself stranded in a tank town by a smooth-talking traveling salesman. Carnival operator Sal Satori hires Eagels as a kootch dancer, but her ambition is to become a serious dramatic actress. When she and Sal reach New York, she signs up for acting lessons under the tutelage of a Mme. Neilson (Agnes Moorehead). Before long, Jeanne is understudying on Broadway, and in 1922 she takes audiences and critics by storm with her unforgettable portrayal of Sadie Thompson in Rain, a role she landed by ruthlessly double-crossing the actress originally slated for the part (Virginia Grey). When her rival commits suicide, the chastened Jeanne turns to booze and drugs to assuage her conscience. The real-life Jeanne Eagels died of narcotics addiction in 1929, a fact that the Hollywood version skims over. Eagels' family sued Columbia Pictures over the "distortions" offered in Jeanne Eagels. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Dragnet: The Big Net
Even though it's Thanksgiving Week, all days off at the LAPD are cancelled in hopes of capturing a brutal holdup man who preys upon helpless women. Knowing that the perpetrator has been haunting the streetcar routes and bus stops, the department assigns several policewomen decoys throughout the city--with each female cop backed up by two males. Meanwhile, Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) are kept busy following up a number of false leads. Ultimately, the criminal is put out of business permanantly...but success comes at a terrible price for young police officer Barney Swanson (Norman Bartold). Adapted from the Dragnet radio broadcast of May 20, 1954, this classic black and white episode is readily available on a multitude of public-domain VHS and DVD collections. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This is My Love
Independently produced by Allan Dowling Pictures, This is My Love was distributed in the U.S. by RKO Radio. The film stars Linda Darnell as Vida, a would-be writer, whose vivid imagination contrasts with the harsh realities of her middle-class household. Her sister Evelyn (Faith Domergue), married to the crippled and embittered Murray (Dan Duryea), is unable to escape into Vida's dream world, though she'd certainly like to do so. When Vida introduces her sweetheart Glenn (Rick Jason) to Evelyn, the latter immediate begins drawing up plans to steal the handsome hunk away from her sister. Not unexpectedly, things degenerate into deception, heartbreak and murder. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Gold Fever
Magician-turned-actor John Calvert, previously the suave leading man of Film Classics' "Falcon" series, is a curious choice to star in the rough-and-tumble western Gold Fever. John Bonar (Calvert) and grizzled old prospector Nugget Jack (Ralph Morgan) strike it rich, whereupon they are besieged by Bill Johnson's (Gene Roth) outlaw gang. Heavily outnumbered, our heroes are forced to rely on brain rather than brawn. In this respect, they have a distinct advantage over the dimwitted crooks (especially perennial pea-brain Tom Kennedy). Ann Cornell, who was Mrs. John Calvert when Gold Fever was filmed, is on hand as the nominal but barely relevant heroine. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Lady in the Iron Mask
As indicated by the title, Lady in the Iron Mask is a distaff version of the famous Alexandre Dumas yarn. D'Artagnan (Louis Hayward) and his fellow musketeers vow to defend France's Princess Anne (Patricia Medina) to the death. It seems that Anne has been thrown into a dungeon with her face enveloped in an iron mask, while her long-lost sister Louise (also Patricia Medina) is placed on the throne by scheming Duke De Valdac (John Sutton). D'Artagnan and his pals must rescue the princess before the impostor goes through with an arranged marriage to King Phillip of Spain (Hal Gerrard).

Purple Heart Diary
Singer Frances Langford stars as herself in Purple Heart Diary. The film is a reenactment of Langford's USO tours during WW II, as reported in the singer's newspaper columns for the Hearst syndicate. Also appearing as themselves are two of Langford's fellow troupers, singer Tony Romano and comic pianist Ben Lessy. Since Langford couldn't very well participate in a fictional wartime romance (her actual love life was public domain thanks to the various Hollywood columnists of the era), the love interest is handled by Aline Towne and Brett King, cast respectively as an army nurse and a crippled ex-football jock. The musical sequences in Purple Heart Diary play a lot more credibly than the melodramatic "courage under fire" setpieces. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Lady Pays Off is a formative example of filmmaker Douglas Sirk's elegant exotica. Linda Darnell plays the title character, a vacationing schoolteacher and one-time gambler named Evelyn Warren. Unfortunately, that "one time" leaves Evelyn indebted to casino owner Matt Braddock (Stephen McNally) to the tune of seven G's. Braddock offers to absolve Evelyn of her debts if she will agree to tutor his troublesome preteen daughter Diana (Gigi Perreau). Chafing at being forced into servitude, Evelyn schemes to make Braddock fall in love with her, then dump him. But Diana takes a liking to Evelyn and cooks up a little scheme on her own to bring the teacher and her father together. It's a simple, unassuming comedy, given a veneer of class and polish by the inimitable Mr. Sirk. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Based on the television series Captain Video and His Video Rangers, this 15-chapter serial was pretty much the beginning of the end for that venerable format (the last serial was made five years after this). Although put together by such longtime serial specialists as director Spencer Bennett, producer Sam Katzman and writer Royal Cole, this cheaply filmed anemic entry has Judd Holdren, as Captain Video, flying around in cartoon rocket ships, wearing what appears to be an old football uniform and fighting old robots that aficionados will recognize from serials filmed years before.

Add Rocketship X-M to top of Queue
Together with The Steel Helmet and Baron of Arizona, Rocketship X M is one of the best films ever turned out by the usually unimpressive Lippert Studios. Set sometime in the future, the film details the first manned space flight to the moon. John Emery plays the head of the expedition, with Lloyd Bridges, Osa Massen, Hugh O'Brian and Noah Beery Jr. in the crew. Blown off its course by a meteor shower, Rocketship X-M misses the moon and lands on Mars instead (the Mars scenes were originally tinted pink). During an exploratory expedition, the crew finds evidence of a once-mighty civilization, evidently destroyed by atomic warfare. A savage band of surviving Martians attack the earthlings, killing two and wounding a third. The survivors head back to the ship, but run out of fuel before reaching Earth. Out of this failure springs the hope that future space flights will prove successful. Generally avoiding cliches (except for the stereotypical comedy relief by Noah Beery Jr.), Rocketship X M is a reasonably intelligent outer-space yarn. While it's true that the film falters in the scientific-accuracy department, it is best to assess the film within the context of its times. Produced for $94,000, Rocketship X M reportedly grossed over a million dollars. A "restored" video version with new special effects was released in 1976 by entrepreneur Wade Williams. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Robert Penn Warren, All the King's Men is a
roman à clef
inspired by the career of Louisiana governor Huey Long. Broderick Crawford won an Academy Award for his portrayal of Willie Stark, a backwoods Southern lawyer who wins the hearts of his constituents by bucking the corrupt state government. Journalist Jack Burden (John Ireland) is impressed by Willie's seeming sincerity, and aids Stark on the road to political power. Once he's reached the governor's mansion, however, Willie proves himself to be as dishonest and despotic as the crooks whom he's replaced. He also cheats shamelessly on his wife with both his campaign manager (Mercedes McCambridge, another Oscar winner) and with Anne Stanton (Joanne Dru), the sister of idealistic doctor Adam Stanton (Sheppard Strudwick). Fiercely protective of his power, Willie organizes a fascistic police force and arranges for "accidents" to befall those who oppose him; even so, he retains the love of the voters by lowering the poverty level, improving the school system, and financing building projects. Even when Willie all but orchestrates the suicide of Anne's uncle, a highly respected judge (Raymond Greenleaf), those closest to him are unable to escape his power and the charismatic hold he has over people. Stockton, CA, stands in for the unnamed state capitol where most of the film's action occurs. In addition to its Oscars for Crawford and McCambridge, All the King's Men won the Best Picture prize. Warren's novel would later be adapted into a stage play, a TV special, and even an opera. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

One wonders if Donald O'Connor would have consented to star in Francis if he knew that a series was to follow. Adapted by David Stern from his own novel, the film stars O'Connor as GI Peter Sterling, who appears to be bucking for a Section Eight. Seems that Sterling keeps insisting that Francis, a cantankerous Army mule, has the power of speech. It turns out that Francis not only
talk, but is also a superb military strategist. With Francis' help, Sterling breaks up a Nazi spy ring and becomes a hero -- but this is only the beginning, as the future entries in Universal's Francis series would prove over and over. Providing able support to the hapless O'Connor are Patricia Medina, Ray Collins, and especially ZaSu Pitts as a bewildered Army nurse. The voice of Francis is provided by Chill Wills, who likewise showed up in most of the Francis sequels, and who, like O'Connor, bailed out before the final entry, Francis in a Haunted House (1956). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Scientific American says: "It's great to be camping or at some outdoor event and to suddenly say, 'Hey, look! See that moving "star"? It's the space station.' Even better—and a little eerie—is to predict an Iridium flare about 45 seconds in advance."
Description: ISS Detector alerts you when the International Space Station will be visible in your skies, as sunlight is reflected off the station's expansive solar arrays. (A similar app called ISS Spotter is available for Apple iOS.) ISS Detector also predicts so-called Iridium flares, when Iridium communications satellites passing overhead glint in reflected sunlight for a few seconds, creating a bright flash that may even be visible during the day.

At the very last minute, and on a busy holiday weekend, Keith was extremely helpful in cleaning out our floor drain. He was very open in showing me what he was doing and included me in every decision. Clearly, he was very experienced. This helped me make the right decisions on future corrective work on our plumbing. Thanks!!
Great service--Jeff (2205) did a great job and was very personable. Highly recommended!
Great service - arrived within an hour of my Friday afternoon call and fixed the problem promptly. Would recommend to anyone.
I recommend Roto-Rooter for anyone who needs plumbing help in Minneapolis. Mike needed less than a half hour to fix my toilet, plus he explained what was wrong and how I might fix it myself in the future. Great service.
I recommend using Roto-Rooter Pluming & Drain Services if you need a plumber in Minneapolis. Jim was dispatched to our house about 45 minutes after we logged an appointment online because our basement drain was backing up. He quickly and efficiently removed the blockage (hair). No mess, no delay, just quick and efficient, professional service. Jim was great and would welcome him back anytime, just hopefully not to soon.
Called on Saturday and had great customer service. Our technician Brian was professional and informative .
No one likes to find a backed up sewer drain in their basement on a sunny Saturday morning!!! With an older home, I've had to deal with this before...except this time it was both the house line and the main line. In the past I've called other plumbers - they were a bit less expensive - but I will say this: you get what you pay for when it comes to plumbing. I was very impressed with the quick and courteous service I received on the phone when I made my appointment, and as a bonus, they were able to come earlier that anticipated. Brian was thorough, knowledgeable and very pleasant. He walked me through each step of the process, as well as tips on prevention. I hope I don't have to worry about another backed-up drain, but if I do, I will be calling Roto-Rooter. Thank you!
I recommend using Roto-Rooter Pluming & Drain Services if you need a plumber in Minneapolis. Brian was dispatched to our house about 30 minutes after we called because our basement drain was backing up. He quickly and efficiently removed the blockage (tree roots) and recommended we also have a fiber-optic camera inspection of our main drain, which we scheduled for Monday. No mess, no delay, just quick and efficient, professional service. Two thumbs up from me.
On time and very nice.

Great projector, but terrible blacks.Pros: Great Color, Nice options for adjusting pretty much everything.(Keystone, the first time I used it, Made the edges all wavey and weird but that hasnt happened since.) Good throw. (About 120" Left to right from 15-17Ft.) Currently at 700 hours and going strong. Cons: It can get loud, and if your next to it, it can warm you like a space heater. But I have it on my celing so nether bother me at all. Other Thoughts: This is my first projector, I did alot of research before I bought this and the main reason I settled for this was it was on clearance, Got it + a Celing mount for $599. I use this for my PC, I play MMOs and FPSs and the Color is great! and it is very crisp and clear. Did you find this review helpful? |
Not ReliablePros: Inexpensive for such a high resolution projector. Good video color (not too impressive though), but otherwise rather sharp video quality. Cons: Somewhat loud noise from the fan from time to time (the fan speed various). But the biggest problem is that after 5 months of light use (less than 80 hours), the projector just went dead. Just a few seconds of fan sound after pushing the power button, then nothing... no light at all. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Poor Quality ControlPros: Affordable, 24hz 1080P, dual input, light weight Cons: I had this projector for 4 months, ran it for a total of 51 hours when the projector completely died due to color wheel failure. Other Thoughts: Acer is just not a reliable company. The quality control on their products is very poor. I cannot recommend anything they make to anyone for this reason. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Impress your friends!Pros: This projector looks fantastic with my bluray and directTV box. supports 1080i/p. very bright projection, allows for watching during the daytime as long as the light is indirect. Cons: No built in audio, not a biggie i hooked my cable box and bluray up to a 2.1 speaker set i had laying around. I had to purchase a digial audio to analog converter because I do not have a surround sound system with a receiver. The lens does not pivot it is fixed so you will have to place it on something with the correct height when aiming it at your wall. You will not be able to mount it on your ceiling. Other Thoughts: I had a new years eve and a superbowl party. Both my family and friends are very impressed with the 90" screen I am able to get with a 10' throw distance. Very little "rainbow" effect due to only 1 dlp processor but its hardly noticeable unless your a projector snob. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a great entry level projector for a small home theater in their basement or living room. you cant beat the price! i paid 699 for it during cyber monday deals. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Get lots of complimentsPros: Great color, low noise fan, bright enough that I can watch with a room lamp on. My 100 inch diag. screen makes other TVs look tiny. Friends love it and tell me so. Cons: Does turn off on it's own every few weeks while in use. Makes a beeping sound and is cold to the touch, attempting to turn back on gives more beeps but no lamp. Fix is to unplug the power cord before turning back on. Other Thoughts: This is my second Acer projector, first one started getting dead pixels shortly after the 1 year warranty expired. Purchased the extended warranty on this one. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Image quality is great, have it projected against a painted screen that gives me minimal glare even with daylight in the windows. As good of a picture as my 1080p hdtv. Cons: Wish it had other projection angles. Other Thoughts: Projects at an upward angle, I recommend that if you are going to mount it high, definitely go with a ceiling mount. Did you find this review helpful? |
Decent entry level 1080pPros: - Price: At $700 after discount, it's a solid value. Cons: - Fan can be annoying when dynamic black is enabled. DB causes the fan to spin up and down depending on the scene and thus you can never really tune out the fan noise. I turned off dynamic black for this reason. Other Thoughts: Happy with the purchase overall. I hope the Rainbows go away some after more break in but I can live with them. Great image pop. Fills a 100-inch screen nicely. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Very SatisfiedPros: To start this off I'll just say that I am not a major cinephile. I don't care if I'm not getting the 'full 1080p with blah de blah de blah'. I just want the picture to look good, and that's what I get from this projector. Cons: Every once in a while the fan kicks on and can be kinda loud. It's not so bad that you can't just turn the volume up a bit, but it can kinda interrupt the mood if you're looking to get deeply engrossed in your film. Did you find this review helpful? |
Very economical 1080p projector with fantastic video reproductionPros: Fantastic picture, widely adjustable brightness, great color reproduction, great black levels and good contrast, small form factor, lightweight, multiple HDMI inputs, and reliable with long lamp life. The projector is a great bargain for a 1080p projector. Using it on a 125" screen and it looks fantastic. Still bright, even in eco mode. No rainbow effect that I've been able to see and I have over 100 hours on the bulb and it's still great. Tried MythTV from a PC, PS3, PC gaming and all have looked good. White casing blends well with projector mount and ceiling. No speakers, but that be a waste in a home theater setup. Focus is highly stable and I haven't needed to adjust over the last 4 months. Cons: Plastic casing is small, meaning cooling is limited. The fan is audible if the receiver is put on mute, but I don't find it noticeable or annoying when watching a movie or TV. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
GreatPros: Great picture, bright, vibrant colors, excellent black levels Cons: Fan noise Other Thoughts: I use this projector for home theater purposes. I connect a blu ray and surround sound to it. Thefan noise is sometimes noticeable. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

"Wrecking Ball" 2012/Columbia Records
Today has been circled on my calender for quite some time. Ever since I heard the announcement that Bruce Springsteen was coming back with a new album and tour, I have been anxiously awaiting this day. So I woke up this morning, took a shower, and drove to our local record shop to pick up my reserved "Wrecking Ball" LP. Luckily it came with a CD copy so I could listen to it on the way home. I had previewed some of the record on his website and heard the tracks he played on Jimmy Fallon but I have to say, after listening to this record straight through, I'm pretty speechless. Springsteen has always had a way of speaking to the times and for the people. This album does exactly that. There is more passion and lyrical sweat in the 5:47 of the title track than I've heard in a very long time. This is also the first record Bruce has done since Clarence Clemons and Danny Federici passed away. After reading Clarence Clemons' autobiography this winter, I have a new and better understanding of who he was and the music he wanted the world to hear. Although there hasn't been much saxophone on the last few Springsteen records, Clemons shines on "Land of Hopes and Dreams" with a solo that will make you cry if you let it. I am so glad that his horn made it on this track. It's haunting and beautiful as all of the Big Man's parts were. All in all, this album is an amazing record that will make you thankful that you were alive to hear it. If you are a fan of urgent lyrics and "real" music, this record, from one of history's greatest songwriters and entertainers is for you. Welcome back, Bruce. You've still got it.
Favorite tracks: Wrecking Ball, Land of Hopes and Dreams, Death to My Hometown, You've Got It.
