This was a flat, not crowded, wide roads, fast course. Not many spectators but the ones there were very supportive. The course is a long out and back which means everyone sees the leaders. Refreshments on the course were excellent. The only minor negative point was that there was a 10k and 3 K in this general area and so getting a taxi to leave was a challenge.
I live in Dubai and this was my first ever Marathon. All in all I would recommend this as a marathon- well organized but very small/ relaxed. Super easy logistics and ideal running conditions. The course is very flat and pretty dull- a long run along beach road, turn round and back again! Not much support along with way, and a small field of 2000 runners, so can feel pretty lonely at times. A friend was biking along at times to keep us company- the organizers did not seem to have issue with this! You can see the finish point the whole way (as it is the tallest building in the world), which can be considered a good or bad thing! Super well organized (aside from instructions to find the registration location- and I am a local!) and so, so easy on race morning- a friend dropped us off 5 minutes walk from start, so a logistical dream. Temperature was perfect- maybe 20 degrees? All in all probably a good marathon to do a quick time, I got 3hr 48. I can see this growing into a bigger and bigger event over the next few years. Maybe a good excuse to visit a great city?
Dubai was my 15th marathon. Good online registration site, and very small, almost non-existent expo (2 booths). About 1500 marathon runners, but good flat course. Can turn quite warm so hydration is key. Dramatic finish at tallest building in world, Burj Kalifia but basically an 'out and back' course that is super low on spectators and low on interesting scenery. Great finisher medal and T-shirt. While small water stations, well stocked and lots of volunteers of the number of runners.
Give it another couple of years and Dubai will be the big race in the Middle East! Don't let fear of the weather hold you back: it was a cool mid-50s at the start and high 60s by late morning, beautiful running weather. Organization was great - start was on-time and there were plenty of water/aid stations throughout the 42km. Packet pick-up was in an easy to find hotel and was quick. There wasn't a big expo, but there was a local running shop there with various items that runners may have forgotten to bring or may need (Gu, hydration packs, hats/visors, etc). There weren't all that many spectators along the route, but those who did come out were extremely supportive. No annoying peppy yells, just a genuine 'good job' and smiles. No issues for female runners at all, though as Dubai is a very international city, there were some curious looks here and there of the female runners. Again, more smiles, no negativity. The course was an out-and-back and was extremely well marked. It's not the most interesting course, hence the 3-star rating, but with a few more years of races and more spectators along the route, the miles will go by. It's flat and fast, so a good option for those looking to PR. Because the route is out-and-back, you were able to see the elites in action. The purse size is huge, $250,000 in 2012, so the elites come out in good numbers. The start and finish were in Downtown Dubai near the Burj, translation - there's a lot of decent hotels within a short distance to the start/finish. Logistics were easy and hotels are a short hobble away from the finish post-race.
I read the previous concerns about the Dubai Marathon, and I sure hoped that someone was listening. To my surprise, I ran my best marathon ever and achieved a new personal best. Almost everything was perfect and we had great weather condition too! There were plenty of water stations with Gatorade; it was run on a great course, with virtually no inclines or declines; and there was a great crowd and a great set of runners too. The organizers did a great job on this one. T-shirt and medals were also great! For 2012 I recommend the following: 1. Keep 30-plus minutes between the 10K and the 42K. There was some confusion as to where the 42K runners should line up because the 10K runners were also lined up in the same starting area. 2. Add more bathrooms along the course. I suggest 5 after 2-3 K, and then put 2 every 5K. 3. Make it very clear for the slower runners that they will be running with traffic - I did hear from 5-hour (plus) runners that they did run with traffic, though it was not that bad. The slowest finish was more that 6:20, so it is good that someone was there to give you your medal and record your finish!
I have run in this race and will be running it again. It should be noted that in a lot of marathons the biggest problem is over-hydration by athletes who take on too much liquid. There was water every 2.5K and isotonic at each 5K. If you were to take everything available at every station, you would be in a serious condition medically. Take on too much water and you reduce your sodium levels and no isotonic can replace that in a short space of time. There were more than enough toilets considering the size of the field, but of course, as in most events, you will have to queue. The marshals were excellent and the police did a great job. If you want to whine and moan, you can always find something, and there are those who spend there life doing that about everything and every race. Funny how they always seem to be the slower runners. Haile Gebrselassie didn't seem to have any problem running in Dubai three times, and even came close to breaking the world record in 2008. If it's good enough for Haile, it's good enough for me.
I have been a Dubai resident since 2006 and this was my first marathon. I am not at all a runner type. Start was ok as I knew what to expect and got there in time right behind the elite runners. Running up and down Beach Road was enjoyable but the only time I saw isotonic drinks was at 5K. After 5K there was only water available for slow runners like me. Problem was that I believed in the race information, which was pointing out clearly the isotonic stations, so I took nothing with me. Luckily I got some bananas from kind spectators along the way and some other fuel that kept me going. The young organizers at the desks were all great but simply ran out of isotonic support for runners slower that 3.5-hour pace. Finish was really good (I did not expect anyone to be there anymore, except my family) but I even got the medal and cheers and plenty of water. Overall, a good experience and isotonic dilemma is easy to fix if there is goodwill for slow runners next year. Traffic was opened on the slow runners, but that is understandable, and pavements on the Beach Road are ok closer to finish. I will come back next year but will train to finish in fewer than 4 hours to avoid traffic - and I will definitely carry gels and isotonics.
I enjoyed the event; it was a bit rough in some respects, but based on the comments made on this website previously, I expected a fiasco. I had plenty of water, and plenty of folks to run with. I got my Asia marathon in, even if it was organized by Westerners. Communication between race organization and police needs to be better. I was OK in 4:42, but my friend had major traffic issues 45 minutes later. I almost went to Mumbai, and I'm glad I went to Dubai instead.
A little boring, with a poor race pack. But it's great to be out running, considering the limited options in the Middle East.
I agree with the other comments listed, and find it a bit refreshing that I was not the only one who felt that there were issues. The biggest issue was that the race was not well organized. I have no idea when the marathon actually began. There was no horn or announcement. My only notification was from the 10K runners who told me to hurry. The officials that were on the course seemed completely clueless as to how things should have been organized. Signs to the start, corrals for runners, and a true start time/horn would have been nice. There were also no official clocks on the course. At the 10K mark, I got a bit nervous when the station had run out of water. Luckily the other stations had water, but that was it... no gels/GU or Gatorade-type fluids. There was no finisher's t-shirt. The t-shirt at the packet pickup was a heavy cotton t-shirt that was sorely disappointing. I had hoped that they would have had an expo with Dubai Marathon gear, but unfortunately there was nothing.

Aina T-Shirts and Apparel Online
In february 23, 1995, started one of the most solid careers in the story of hardcore/punk in Barcelona, introducing a new flavour of mid-tempo, melodic and emotional songrwiting in the town's scene. During that first year they recorded their firs single, "Uptight", and started their friendship with Bcore. That winter they started their first Spanish tour, playing in Madrid, the Basque Country, the eastern coast and other important cities. In 1996, after a line-up change in bass guitar, they recorded their second single, a split with americans Rythm Collision. Once again they toured through Spain and back home started to record what would be their third single, showing their newfound interest in Washington DC sound, without losing their personal sense of melody. Instead of putting out that single, Bcore offered the possibility of putting together all songs released in their singles and some unreleased material, so that would became sort of their first full-length. In 1997, and with a whole CD released, they toured again, this time not only in Spain but also, for the first time, in France. In 1998, and with a whole new bunch of songs, they spent most of the year doing small tours, again in Spain and in France, reaching the important number of 100 gigs until then. In october they got into the french Pole Nord studios to record thier second full length (actually the first conceived as a "real" one, not a compilation) with Fred Norget, probably the most important french punk-rock producer. The result was "Aina", an acclaimed record which got the deserved reponse both from audience and press. France becomes their headquarter for the following european tour, reaching countries like the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Eslovenia, Italy and France in five weeks of intense playing, sharing the stage with such bands as Bluetip, The Farewell Bend, Karate or Bob Tilton. Back in Barcelona, skateboarding interrupts their plans, including some important show in Barcelona. But soon they are on the road again and start a new and successful Spanish tour, that leads them to Valencia, Alicante, Zaragoza, Castellón, Madrid and San Sebastian amongst others. Until the end of summer they play 20 more shows (the global account at the time goes up to 180!), and in october they tour through Europe again in five weeks, this time with The (Capitol City) Dusters, a Washington DC trio on Dischord records (Aina's favourite), with the release of a split single with the Dusters, put out by Bcore in Europe and Superbad in USA. After some months of rest, in november 2000 they go on tour through France for a week, also playing in Bilbao and Madrid. Their live experience and prestige leads them to opening for Queens of the stone age and At the drive-in in their visits to Spain. New songs and the so long-awaited news: their new record will be recorded in summer 2001 in the mythical Inner Ear Studios in Washington DC, with acclaimed Jay Robbins (Jawbox/Burning Airlines frontman and producer of Texas is the reason, Jets to Brazil, The Promise Ring, Bluetip, Kerosene 454 amongst others ) behind the recording desk. After that, their first american tour, with Burning Airlines and The (Capitol City) Dusters for a month, followed by another five-week european tour with Shiner. In that tour, one stop at London's BBC studios to record a Peel Session, that would be put out some months later, at the same time that the "Chrysanthemum EP". That four-song record would become finally their last release, as in 2003 the band decides to split up so all of the members could concentrate in their new personal projects: Pau Santesmasses (drums) flies to the USA to start a new life with his Washington DC friends, Artur Estrada (vocals, guitar) starts a new band, Nueva Vulcano with members of Shanty Rd. and The Moon Men, Titi Sola (guitar) has a baby and Alvaro Sola concentrates in his antiques trade business. A final tour in Spain leaves some of their best live performances in our memories.

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Gchat
Gchat, arguably the most legitimate of all instant messaging services, gets even more dynamic this week. Huffington Post recently featured Penn professor Michelle Taransky's Gchat poetry as part of their Reading Series. Taransky's "Sorry Was In The Woods" is an excerpt from her forthcoming book and subsequently makes us feel self-conscious for not even including vowels in our Gchats. Sry.
While we don't have the attention span time to write our own full-fledged Gchat poem, we came up with a special haiku for the occasion:
Thank you, O Gchat
Workday accelerator
Plus emoticons
Have any Gchat gems? Let us know in the comments. It's Friday, and we all need something to read.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Five employees at the Transportation Security Administration are on administrative leave.
They'll stay off the job while investigators try to find out why sensitive guidelines about airport passenger screening were posted on the Internet.
An assistant Homeland Security secretary told senators that an investigation is under way, and that the employees involved have been taken off duty. A TSA official later said five employees are on administrative leave.
At a separate hearing, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told senators that the department is taking steps to make sure this never happens again. She added that "the traveling public was not at risk."
Among other things, the document outlined who is exempt from certain additional screening measures. And it offered examples of identification documents that screeners accept.

This is the perfect kit to adjust your strings action, your neck and the radius,easy to use. Don't need more. Get one. Denys
great set up kit! i love it!!
Now I don't have to pay my tech to set up my guitars. I have all the tools I need to do it myself. Highest quality tools made of high quality materials.
I'm a drummer.....and you know what that means...If I can use these things then any body could use them. All joking aside. These tools seem swiss built. Super straight and accurate. The 18" straight edge is thick and can't be bent. Once i figured out the way to use them I set all six of my babies. One thing to keep in mind. These things aren't magic. One only increases their functions with use.
The basic setup kit makes guitar setup a breeze with little or no experience. Learning to use this setup kit will save you money but also give you a better understanding of your instrument. Great product
I decided that to start doing my own set-ups and repairs. This kit is a perfect place to start
The radius gauges are invaluable as it the string height gauge. I was able to dial in the pickup polepieces and pickup heights and really improve the sound on my Les Paul.
Str8 edge and gauge card are invaluable. Still can't figure out what to do with the radius gauge. Maybe if I ever replace a saddle it could be handy.
Arrived speedily.Packaged perfectly. I know as a general rule, people order tools they are already familiar with. But by using this set up kit I learned more about how to get the job done right. Each item is of excellent quality, performs as advertised, and I would certainly purchase again. Thank you, Wayne
If you're serious about your guitar or bass you owe it to yourself to get this set up kit. Excellent!!!

As far back as May, forecasters were expecting an active season in the tropics. The 2010 hurricane season is halfway over, but if it's anything like the first half, we may have a long way to go.
September 10 marks the halfway point in the Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June 1 until November 30. Statistically, half of the storms in the Atlantic basin occur before this date, and half occur afterward. So far, nine named storms have formed in the Atlantic in addition to a couple of Depressions that didn't quite make the cut. Several of those storms have already impacted the Lone Star State. Hurricane Alex, the first of the season, and the first June hurricane since 1995. Before South Texas could even catch its breath, Tropical Depression brought another round of flooding to the area. Most recently, Tropical Storm Hermine moved inland in the same area of Northeastern Mexico and caused problems across much of the Lone Star State.
Our part of the state wasn't spared from Hermine. Severe Weather rolled into our neck of the woods, and flooding was a concern along many river banks. We were spared the worst, however. In Waco, 8 inches of rain fell in two days, and flooding was so bad in the Dallas area that several highwater rescues were needed to free people trapped in their cars and homes.
Now on to the second half.
With nine in the first half of the season, that means that 18 should be our magic number this year. That may not play out exactly, but it likely means "there's plenty more where that came from". Igor has just become a Category 1 hurricane and there's now two other areas that the National Hurricane Center says will likely become Tropical Depressions within the next two days, one of which will likely head into the Gulf if it does form.
September is one of the busiest months, particularly in the Gulf of Mexico, so while we haven't seen any of the Major hurricanes hit the area yet, it doesn't mean it can't happen.
While we've been busy in the Gulf with several storms, overall we've been fortunate, as has the East Coast. Hurricanes Danielle and Earl, the two major hurricanes we've had so far remained off the coast, but if weather patterns had been just a little different (especially in the case of Earl, where the eye of the storm missed land by only a few miles) things could have turned out very differently for the Eastern Seaboard. Flooding and high winds did damage, but things could have been worse if Earl had made a direct hit.
Only time will tell what will happen until November comes to a close, but several ingredients are working in favor of a busy finish to the 2010 hurricane season. Record warm temperatures in the Atlantic Basin, La Nina bringing less wind shear to tear storms apart, and the multi-decadal cycle, which has kept things relatively busy for the last few decades.

Death from the Skies!
These Are the Ways the World Will End . . .
Philip Plait, Ph.D. - Author
A lively astronomy primer that uses cataclysmic scenarios to explain the universes most fascinating events.
According to astronomer Philip Plait, the universe is an apocalypse waiting to happen But how much do we really need to fear from things like black holes, gamma-ray bursts, and supernovae? And if we should be scared, is there anything we can do to save ourselves? With humor and wit, Plait details the myriad doomsday events that the cosmos could send our way to destroy our planet and life as we know it. This authoritative yet accessible study is the ultimate astronomy lesson. Combining fascinatingand often alarmingscenarios that seem plucked from science fiction with the latest research and opinions, Plait illustrates why outer space is not as remote as most people think. Each chapter explores a different phenomenon, explaining it in easy-to-understand terms, and considering how life on earth and the planet itself would be affected should the event come to pass. Rather than sensationalizing the information, Plait analyzes the probability of these catastrophes occurring in our lifetimes and what we can do to stop them. With its entertaining tone and enlightening explanation of unfathomable concepts, Death from the Skies! will appeal to science buffs and beginners alike.
Chapter 1. Target Earth: Asteroid and Comet Impacts

surprise many people nationally. All year since Jan the kids have heard they are not that good. This TEAM (Offense, Defense, Special Teams) are continually told nationally by opposing fans and the media they are not good enough.
This is already a determined bunch, note last season. Consider this is season 2 under these new coaches and consider the chip on the shoulder these kids will carry all season long. Sure, the season is challenging, but these kids are committed to doing it all the right way!
BrianD said...
I really think it all falls on Denard. If he is better passing the ball then the offense will be better. Defensive coordinators will have to respect him throwing the ball so him and Fitz will run wild. If he isn't better throwing the ball it will be the same story as last year. We will look amazing against a team like Umass but struggle against better D's.

So has anyone read Samsung's reply regarding the pentile screen?
Apparently they used the pentile screen to increase longevity as the blue OLED degreades quicker.
Though that's true, I think it is some bs remark. However, if that truly is the main reason, kinda makes you wonder why they bothered putting that kind of technology into the S2.

if you put ics browser+ on, its the same as the standard browser, cept you can go into menu > Settings > advandced and in the Browser+ Settings you can change the user agent to "desktop" which means the rich text text box on this forum will work, and the desktop version of sites will load by default.
Seen as the browser is pretty good, nearly all sites work fine in desktop mode anyway so its well worth installing and turning on and using as the browser.

Judging from comments I've been reading on the web, people feel as though they were left wanting more.
I suppose this is the danger when you try to hype your product up to the high heavens.
9 million preorders for the s3 would indicate that no one was left wanting, They may just about have enough to meet orders when it drops and they are making 5 million a month.
Samsung are on fire at the moment, not only are they making huge profits, but they are also having amazing research, they made breakthroughs in graphene, oled, hdd and processors that means into the future technology wise they have nothing to worry about.
People critic for them stealing design ideas, they used their own design for the s3 and its probably going to be their biggest selling phone ever.
I think they pretty much shut every critic up with the release of one phone.
The sad news is, samsung used to share their research with others, but these days they probably wont, and now everyone will probably have to pay samsung to make super fast graphene phones.
on 18-05-2012 08:49 PM
Just read about that; hats off to Samsung it seems now that the Galaxy brand has gained a very impressive reputation.
I do agree with the design though. It clearly reeks of Samsung trying to show that they can be successful without having a phone design that looks similar to the iphone apparently leading to a ton full of lawsuits.
I do admit though, though I'm not really fussed about the phone itself, I would quite fancy a little play around on it and see how these proximity sensors work.
on 18-05-2012 09:02 PM
yeah, im not going to get an s3, i have a note and am in love with the notes form factor so its a no go, I also dont like the look of s3 in photos, I will admit though that their other pebel inspired stuff looks nicer in person.
With 9 million preorders though, its out of this world, i thought 4 million was amazing, 9 million is hard to get the head around.
It was brave of them, and shows yeah they sometimes take design cues from others but at the end of the day thats not why people are buying them, hopefully be brave enough to throw some more of their design talent into stuff, i think their tvs look good.

"Attraction is not an option. "
"In life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them. And by waiting, they miss out. Usually, what you wish for doesn't fall in your lap; it falls somewhere nearby, and you have to recognize it, stand up, and put in the time and work it takes to get to it. This isn't because the universe is cruel. It's because the universe is smart. It has its own cat-string theory and knows we don't appreciate things that fall into our laps."

A big week for me. First FC and gold star on Expert Guitar (Train in Vain), and added two more (La La Love You and Bullets and Guns), passed Timmy and RttH on expert guitar, leaving me only two to complete the tour. Probably won't have a week that good in a long while.

on the negative side, i believe my drum kit is finaly getting to its end life cycle... less and less sensitive .
Hit 192,000 something On Indestructible (expert drums).

Made some new rock band friends, created a thread here that lots o' people read, passed "Enter Sandman" on medium guitar....for me that's like gold staring lol. Also had a rock band party!!! Whoo hoo!
"I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was a round graham cracker that just happened to kind of work in my XBOX 360."
beat RTTH on hard drums woot! too bad i've yet to do a drum tour... maybe one day ill get some of those achievements but 58 songs is so long.... figure if i cant beat the last few songs then i can just have fun online...
Finally beat Hellion/EE on expert guitar. It caused me problems for weeks, failing about 3/4ths through the solo, but my fingers were nimbler this time, I guess.

Ypsilanti parents must take action to see positive results in schools
My daughter is a third grader at Erickson Elementary school in Ypsilanti. She is a third-generation Wildcat - my mother and I both attended Erickson. My mother and her three brothers graduated from Ypsilanti High School between 1969 and 1975. I graduated in 1992. My mother worked for the district for almost 15 years. I worked for the district for two years.
My family has a long history in this city. When my husband and I moved back to Michigan, we opted to use the school of choice option to enroll our daughter in Ypsilanti Public Schools. I had hoped that my daughter would be a member of the class of 2022 that graduated from Ypsilanti High School. If things in this school district continue on as they are, I can tell you with almost all certainty, she won't.
As a future teacher, I believe in public education. I believe in teamwork between educators, families, and the community. I have gone to the mat in defense of YPSD - even when it was failing before my eyes. I have faith in the teachers that they are teaching the best that they can despite being crippled by the lack of funding from their district and the lack of respect from the families they try to serve. I tried to show my support of building administrators who were caught between making sure their teachers were equipped to do their jobs and making sure the demands were being met.
At certain points, I defended the administration because I can not even imagine how difficult a job they have had in the past. I supported the consolidation because I thought it was innovative, brave, and it appeared that both districts were trying to pool their strengths and find a way to make a strong and healthy educational system that would serve the children and families in Ypsilanti and provide them with a quality education while the administration would ensure that the district was running a lean and effective budget.
It appears that I, like the thousands of people that voted for the consolidation, was sold a bill of goods. We were duped. We were conned. I am exceptionally disappointed in the new school board's choice to "explore" a multi-superintendent model. I am disgusted that Sharon Irvine's application isn't being given the due respect and consideration she deserves. And I am appalled that this school board seems to largely believe that the community should not have a say in how the district that we were practically BEGGED to vote for, will be overseen.
However, the lack of familial involvement from the community at large has been deplorable. It has been, for the most part, the same few vocal people over and over again. I recall a time when I attended a meeting of the Parent Advisory Board at Perry CDC — a school with almost 600 children in attendance at the time. There were, at the most, 12 parents there. 12.
So if you are wondering why there has not been more transparency in how things have been running, it's because there are very few people who are asking for it. We, as a community, have been falling down on our duty to hold the people in these offices accountable for what they are supposed to be doing. We - and I definitely include my husband and myself in this - have been sitting on the sidelines, playing armchair quarterback, recalling the bygone days and talking to ourselves about how things SHOULD be.
The time for sitting back in the BARCO lounger is done. The time for being passive recipients of our public educational system is finished. WE are the taxpayers in this community. WE are the parents in this community. And WE need to be the ones who take this board, this administration in hand and tell them that we are finished accepting the status quo that has driven our teachers, our kids, and our schools so deep into the ground that no one can breathe without getting a nose full of dirt.
It is time for action, not words. We can make a difference. We SHOULD make a difference. Robert F. Kennedy once said, "The purpose of life is to contribute in some way to making things better." Folks, we need to stop waiting for someone else to make things better and do it ourselves.
Aimee McVay Conat is a parent of a Erickson Elementary School student and an Ypsilanti resident.

Despite their geographical proximity and economic and cultural similarities, the states of the Midwest have had very different rates of violent crime over the past five decades. Moreover, through periods of dramatic increases and decreases in violent crime, the relative positions of the states have remained fairly stable. The low-violence states in 1960 remain at the low end today, while the high-violence states in 1960 remain at the high end today. However, the gap between the high states and low states has been slowly diminishing for many years. In another decade, the state that has historically had the highest rate of violence, Illinois, may conceivably fall to about the same level as the state that has historically had the lowest, Iowa.
Readers of this Blog may know that I have previously written a series of posts on crime and punishment in three midwestern states, Indiana, Minnesota, and Wisconsin (e.g., here and here). With this post, I begin a new series that will explore regional trends more broadly. With violent crime such a staple of local news coverage, I think it's helpful to be able to place the crime du jour within a wider spatial and temporal context; perhaps this bigger-picture view may lessen the tendency to adopt hastily conceived policy responses to whatever happens to be the latest outrage.
Here are the rates of reported violent crime (per 100,000 residents) in the midwestern states and the U.S. as a whole since 1960:

Abandoned boy meets Texas fireman who saved him
10-year-old Texas boy abandoned as infant gets birthday wish: Meeting fireman who rescued him
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — When a Texas fourth-grader was talking with his classmates about where they dreamed of going, his answer wasn't an amusement park or sporting event. It was "his" fire station.
Koregan Quintanilla was abandoned at an Arlington fire station when he was just a few hours old in 2002. Under Texas' Baby Moses law, a parent can leave an unharmed infant up to 60 days old at a fire station or hospital with no questions asked.
On Thursday night, Koregan got his wish for his 10th birthday. He met Arlington firefighter Wesley Keck, who found him a decade ago, and rode on a fire truck.
Koregan's mother, Rebecca Quintanilla, says Koregan always has known he's adopted and has watched TV news footage from when he was found at the station.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"I have received TONS of compliments on these Save the Dates. My family and friends have said this is the best save the date they have ever received! I was more than happy with the photo quality and how they turned out. Couldn't have been happier!"
"I love these save the dates. To the color and text. The images came out really clear. My family and friends loved the idea of the magnets instead of paper. Thank you weddingpaperdivas for a phenomenal product. I will be ordering my invitations, ceremony programs and thank you cards."
"I used a cropped photo from a regular jpeg image and it came out just as clear on the magnets. The actual size was bigger than I imagined (about the size of a standard post card), which was a great surprise! The only area that could be improved would be the edges, they weren't completely smooth; most likely from the machine that cuts the large sheets, but it is really not a big deal and doesn't take away from the magnet at all."
"I did not realize this was a magnet, but was really excited when it came and the mail and I saw it. Because it's smaller, the magnet with your photo does not seem as cheesy. It takes a lot to ask your family and friends to look at your engagement photo on their fridge for 6 months+. LOL"
"We are very happy with our Sleek Chic Save the Dates. The best part is that we were able to customize the order to perfectly fit our vision. At no additional charge, WPD reformatted the postcards into flat cards (we did add personalized envelopes for an additional charge). Because we were using a black and white photo, we wanted more color on the card. WPD suggested using two shades of green for the design on the side as well as green font. We were also able to add our last names. I could not be more pleased with the customer service we received! We ended up asking for what felt like a lot of customization and WPD delivered 100%."

T-Mobile execs see early momentum, higher store traffic
T-Mobile's decision to abolish contracts and cell phone subsidies has piqued the interest of consumers.
That's according to T-Mobile's senior vice president of marketing, Andrew Sherrard, and its executive vice president for corporate services, David Carey, who spoke to CNET today. Carey said traffic was up in all of the stores he visited after the carrier made its switch late last month and announced the changes during a high-profile event in New York.
"I have every reason to believe this momentum will continue and carry forward," he said, but conceded that it was too early … Read more

Judge won't permit plea deal for Lions' Nick Fairley
Lions defensive tackle Nick Fairley hoped to enter a pre-trial diversion program for a charge of driving under the influence. Now Fairley and his attorneys reportedly will have to rethink their strategy. WPMI Local 15 News in Mobile, Ala., said Fairley was in court Thursday expecting to get a plea deal for his DUI arrest in May, when an Alabama State Trooper pulled him over for going about 100 mph. Mobile County Circuit Judge Sarah Stewart said there was no deal. Fairley's attorneys expected the charge to be dropped in exchange for Fairley entering the DUI diversion program. WPMI said Stewart determined that Fairley was not eligible for the program because in December, prosecutors in Mobile dropped a misdemeanor marijuana possession charge against the Lions star.

It's been another busy year for ecommerce, with one of the key themes being the widespread adoption of responsive design.
But have retailers finally gotten to grips with mobile, or is there still much to be done? I lean towards the latter as, though some brands provide an excellent mobile experience, many are still woeful.
I've asked our ecommerce experts, agency and client-side, for their views...

Ahead of the Apple App Store's fifth birthday next month, some brands are beginning to seriously weigh up the benefits of investing in a dedicated app versus optimising their existing sites for mobile.
Choosing the most viable mobile strategy is now a major element in most businesses' plans, and this is the key message emerging from the Mobile Experience Trends Briefing, which we recently launched with Econsultancy.

Last week we all waited with baited breath to find out 'what' exactly Apple was going to launch at this year's World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC).
And when Tim Cook unveiled a new operating system and some product upgrades, many of us were a little disappointed, having hoped for a shiny new and exciting smart phone or tablet.

Capitalising on 2012's success, mobile commerce is finally reaching its stride, and all the signs suggest that 2013 is a banner year for mobile.
Data shows that more and more consumers shop and buy through their mobile devices. In fact, a quick recap of 2012 shows that online shopping reached an all-time high during the 2012 Christmas period, with 30% growth on Cyber Monday alone. Sales soared and consumers flocked to their tablets, smartphones, and other mobile devices to make purchases.
What this also asserts is that marketers, ecommerce executives and retailers must examine the customer experience and eliminate customer pain points that block successful conversions for the retailer.
If a customer voices issues with mobile transactions, retailers must identify the issue and why it causes customers to react negatively, then they must resolve the issue immediately.

For years now, working in the web optimisation space, I've always been frustrated by one simple fact: businesses spend millions of pounds every year driving customers to a website, but spend almost nothing helping those customers convert. For me, it's a wholly misguided strategy, but is one that doesn't seem set to change any time soon.
It's easy to come up with reasons for this remaining the status quo and many myths exist. My favourite is perhaps the case that marketing is relatively expensive whereas popping up a website is a drop in the ocean. But with declines in the effectiveness of traditional marketing combined with increased web sophistication and multiple digital channels now available, it's surely getting to the stage where the opposite is becoming true.

Smartphones are for browsing, tablets are for buying. That's if you believe the results of a recent Sapient/Nitro survey, which shows that 56% of consumers rate tablets as useful for shopping compared to just 38% on smartphones.
There's no doubt any online retailer reading these results will sit up and take note. But in order to turn this into an actionable mobile strategy, it is important to understand more about consumer behaviour on mobile devices of all types and how that behaviour changes and evolves.

Recent figures published by BRC-KPMG give the UK retail industry another grim reality check.
According to the report, there was only a small 2.3% rise in total UK retail sales numbers during February 2012, a significant slowdown when compared to January (where sales grew 11.3%) and 2011 (where overall growth was 18.5%).

In association with Tealeaf, Econsultancy has this week launched the second annual survey on Reducing Customer Struggle.
This survey aims to explore the extent to which companies understand the overall customer experience and the technology they use to identify issues and remedy them.

Mobile is booming. Chances are that, if you're shopping online in 2012, increasingly you'll be carrying out part of the transaction on a mobile device.
The majority of smartphone users are now using a mobile device to browse and shop online while, in the UK, 5m tablet owners are expected to purchase a second device in 2012.
IHS screen digest recently released research predicting that in-app purchases will hit £3.6 billion in 2015, accounting for as much as 64% of mobile app market revenues.
So one thing is clear: if optimising your mobile channel isn't high on your list of priorities in 2012, it really should be.
by Geoff Galat 22 February 2012 14:29pm 4 comments
As discussed in a previous blog post, customer experience needs to be at the heart of your mobile strategy in 2012.
With online forums, comment boxes online and the growing number of brands with a social media presence, a customer has more ways than ever before to vent their frustrations following a poor online customer experience.
What's more, a customer who has a poor experience online using a mobile device can use the very same device to log on to Facebook or Twitter and tell their entire network of friends and family about the poor mobile online experience they encountered.

All purchases are subject to state and local sales tax unless the purchaser possesses a valid sales tax exemption number. Exemption numbers from participating states are as per state tax codes. Tax numbers must be registered at the time a bidder number is issued. Signed documentation may be required to qualify for tax exemptions.
2. All items are sold as-is to the highest bidder, and neither we, nor the consignor make any warranties or representations with respect to these items, and neither will be responsible for the correctness of description, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, age, source, origin, authenticity, or condition of any item sold. All statements, written and oral, are QUALIFIED STATEMENTS OF OPINION ONLY. Illustrations in our catalogs, website, and other materials are provided for identification only. Prospective buyers are, in all cases, responsible for determining the physical condition of lots.

Merchandise returns will not be accepted for any reason.
3. The auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. If any dispute arises between bidders, the item in dispute shall, at the auctioneer's discretion, either be re-offered for sale or sold as stated. In any event, the auctioneer's decision will be final. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sales records shall be conclusive in all respects. Title will pass to the highest bidder when the auctioneer says, "SOLD", and thereafter the property is at the purchaser's sole risk and responsibility.
4. Very few items in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. This is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and Allard Auctions, Inc., below which the item will not be sold. The reserve may be executed by bidding from the auctioneer, his assistant, or the owner.

Additionally, the representative(s) of the online bidding company, on behalf of pre-registered, online absentee bidders, will execute those bids live from the auction floor in the same manner. In the event of multiple absentee bids on an item, bidding on the floor must, and will, start at a figure no higher than the highest absentee bid, and no lower than the second highest absentee bid. Also, if any two or more absentee bids on a single item are tied, the first one received will be the one acknowledged and recorded.
6. Allard Auctions, Inc. reserves the right to withdraw any property before or during the sale, and has no liability whatsoever for the withdrawal of property. The local Federal Fish and Wildlife Dept. has been notified, and any items found to be illegal to sell because of feathers, attachments, or any other reason, will be pulled from the auction and not offered for sale.
7. By submitting any bid, whether in person, in writing, or any other means, the buyer acknowledges and accepts these terms and conditions.
8. We occasionally offer for sale firearms that do not fit within the range of Antiques as defined by the ATF.

This is done solely at the purchaser's risk and expense, and Allard Auctions assumes no responsibility for loss or damage.

Grant Program/Mechanism Specific – Limited Validations
NIH has identified generic business rule checks (i.e. validations) that are applied against all applications submitted to NIH. These generic validations may apply to all mechanisms (e.g. all applications must include the eRA Commons username for the Principal Investigator in the credential field of the R&R Senior/Key Person Profile form) or they may apply to all applications for a specific grant program/mechanism (e.g. "Renewal" is not a valid application type for R21 applications). These validations are documented in detailed (PDF - 1 MB) format.
There is a limited set of mechanism specific validations that, although standard values are assigned, NIH Institutes and Centers (IC) may choose not to have eRA systems enforce applicant compliance with these standard values in order to allow alternative values specified in a Funding Opportunity Announcements to be accepted. When this happens we call it "opting-out of limited validations". In order to "opt-out" an IC must provide appropriate justification for why the standard values are not sufficient for the opportunity and gain special permission to change them. Less than 2% of NIH's posted opportunities are marked as "opt-out".
The following table shows the limited validations that ICs have some flexibility over and the standard values for each. Under normal circumstances, the eRA system will check the application against the standard values and provide an error/warning if the standard value is exceeded. For "opt-out" opportunities, the eRA system still checks the application against the standard value, but if the value is exceeded a special warning message is provided indicating that the applicant should check the FOA and be sure to comply with the values specified. Remember, warnings will not stop the application submission process.
In "opt-out" FOAs, differences from the standard values for limited validations are listed in Section IV. Application and Submission Information under Other Submission Requirements.
