Why Cable TV in Pottersville, NJ
There are so many reasons why we here at CableTV.com appreciate cable service. There are hundreds of HD channels, that look great no matter the weather, unlike satellite. It provides On Demand entertainment as well as movies, TV shows, and local programming. Cable TV is a better value because there is less equipment to buy or rent, and installation is easier. Bundling it with high-speed internet could save you up to $400 a year. Plus cable is:
Cable TV offersmore HD choices
Snow may mess up satellite, but itdoesn't faze cable
Cable can beinstalled virtually anywhere
Watching Cable TV in Pottersville
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Why Choose Cable Internet in Pottersville
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Pottersville residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $42 every month they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in New Jersey grew to 73% by 2010. Enter your zip code to find out more about cable Internet, bundles and providers in Pottersville.

2013 Holiday Gift Guide: Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Handhelds, Women, Men, Techies, Under $250, Under $500
The next item in Gear Live's 2013 Holiday Gift Guide is the Kindle Paperwhite. Why? well, as great as e-ink readers have been (and they've been pretty stellar,) since the original Amazon Kindle was released, their one tragic flaw has been that they become pretty useless in the dark. You either simply can't read them, or have to use a small light attachment accessory. Enter the Kindle Paperwhite. Amazon has designed what we consider to be the best e-ink reader to hit the market. It's flagship feature is the front-lit display, which works great when you're in the dark and want to read your latest ebook purchase without using a backlit tablet that's hard on the eyes, or an awkward clip-on light accessory. It also supports new features like telling you how much reading time you have before you finish your current chapter, and an all-touch display with virtually no lag. Check out our Kindle Paperwhite review, unboxing gallery, and video after the break for more, and head on over to Amazon to pick up the Kindle Paperwhite for $119 for that bookworm in your life.

Austrian Findbuch for Victims of National Socialism
The Austrian National Fund publishes the "Findbuch for Victims of National Socialism", a new online platform that makes it possible to search for archival material in Austrian Archives.
Within the scope of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day on 27 January – the day of the liberation of the concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz – the National Fund of the Republic of Austria presents the Findbuch for Victims of National Socialism (www.findbuch.at). This new online portal makes it possible to search the holdings of several Austrian archives for material on National Socialist property seizures and Austrian restitution and compensation measures. The Findbuch currently contains around 130,000 records from the Austrian State Archives and the Provincial Archives of Burgenland, Upper Austria, Salzburg, Carinthia and Tyrol. New records are being added continually. It is possible to call up information such as the "property notices" Jewish people had to submit after the "Anschluss" of Austria in 1938 as well as the files of the Restitution Commissions which were established after the war. In addition, the Findbuch provides in digital form historical address books and official handbooks on public offices and institutions which facilitate research on private individuals, companies or the authorities which were responsible for the National Socialist seizures of property or restitution post-1945. As such, the Findbuch is one of the most comprehensive collections of personal data on National Socialist property seizures and Austrian restitution and compensation measures after 1945.
National Socialism as family history
The Findbuch was presented in Parliament on 15 January 2013, followed by a panel discussion on the subject "Family stories. Restitution and compensation in generational memory". In the discussion, hosted by Hannah Lessing, Secretary General of the National Fund and the General Settlement Fund, Katja Sturm-Schnabl, professor at the Institute for Slavic Studies at the University of Vienna, actor and author Miguel Herz-Kestranek, Albertina provenance researcher Pia Schölnberger and university professor emeritus at the Institute of Contemporary History of the University of Vienna Gerhard Botz discussed the impact the National Socialist era had had on the families' memory and the meaning of restitution and compensation for the victims of National Socialism.
The Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of the National Fund, President of the National Council Barbara Prammer, believes that the Findbuch has come at the right time. The General Settlement Fund – established on the basis of the Washington Agreement –, whose work provides the foundation for the Findbuch, had almost completed its tasks. In the run-up to the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, an important source of information had been made accessible, which not only benefited victims of National Socialism from Austria and their descendents but also historians, schools, universities and commemorative projects. "Undertaking research in the Findbuch is also a form of remembrance and commemoration and, as such, also forms part of the Austrian culture of remembrance", continued Prammer.
Austrian archives, libraries and other institutions support the Findbuch for Victims of National Socialism. The Director General of the Austrian State Archives, Wolfgang Maderthaner, states: "The Austrian State Archives are proud to have been able to contribute towards the successful realization of this necessary and long-overdue project through the extensive provision of fundamental historical source material." Johanna Rachinger, Director General of the Austrian National Library: "We were very pleased to have been able to support the initiative of the National Fund in establishing the online Findbuch. It is still very difficult for the descendents of many victims to receive that to which they are entitled or even just to be able to shed light on the tragic fates of their relatives. I am convinced that an important tool has been created in this respect, in the form of the Findbuch for Victims of National Socialism." For the Director of the Vienna University Library, Maria Seissl, "the Findbuch constitutes a vital step regarding digital access to information, which benefits both the victims of National Socialism and their descendents as well as those undertaking academic and remembrance work."
The main goal hoped to be achieved by publishing the Findbuch – also available in English – is to facilitate the search for "family traces" in Austrian archive holdings, not only for the victims of National Socialism from Austria and their descendents but also for academics and provenance or family researchers. It is intended to encourage people to come to terms with National Socialism and its aftermath in Austria, both in terms of family history research and at an academic, educational and societal level. "By publishing the Findbuch, the National Fund is further building on its dedication in expressing Austria's special responsibility towards the victims of National Socialism and their descendents", summed up Lessing.

New Year's Gifts / Couture Cocoa Sampler
Can't choose just one? Give the gift of all three unique Couture Cocoa experiences. We've created 3-ounce sample sizes of La Parisienne, Aztec Elixir and Bianca together in one package. Sit back, relax and sip away.
2–3 servings per flavor depending on the chocolate density preferred.
Manufactured in a facility that handles tree nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, milk, wheat and soy.
Consume within 9 months.

"These three cocoas were the second collection I created. They were meant to be tried as a set or a flight, where you would taste your way from white to spice. Bianca's nose, the bouquet is heaven! If all I could do is smell this cocoa I would be a happy camper. The Aztec Elixir was the first chili and chocolate drink on the market and I remember how people were so wide eyed and disbelieving…until they took a sip. The ancho and chipotle chillies with bits of vanilla are so well complemented with the chocolate, it just warms me up. The vanilla sugar we make is truly my favorite part of drinking both the La Parisienne and the Aztec Elixir. Instead of just using an extract I like EATING the vanilla bean itself. In fact, the vanilla bean flavor is in the pods not the little seeds, so when you have a sip of the cocoas you actually bite into small bits of vanilla bean and chew. The texture is somewhat similar to coconut."
"It is always flattering to receive praise from the gurus of the culinary world. Wattleseed Exotic Ice Cream was chosen as a must-try food in 2007 by Food and Wine Magazine and Everyday with Rachael Ray voted our La Parisienne the number one drinking chocolate out of 75 contenders."

|Perfect gift!
|I bought this for myself and a family member as a thank you gift. This was one of the best presents I could think of for her and he drinking chocolate loving fiance. He definitely loved them as did I when I tried them. Being able to try all three flavors didn't help me to choose a favorite because I loved them all.
|- Shannon
|A Must Have!
|Decisions, decisions! This is a nice sampling if you cannot pick just one. I look forward to winter knowing this is in my pantry. Definitely a must have for those cold winter days even though served chilled is just as delightful.

Crypton FAQ's
We want to provide you with as much information about Crypton as we can. If you don't find the answer to your question here, please Contact Us.
Q: Is Crypton a fabric? A: Yes. It is an engineered textile made with pre-tested and approved fabrics that have specific fiber and construction requirements that deliver consistent performance, known as Crypton Super Fabric. The fibers are permanently transformed with stain and microbial protection before they receive an integrated (non-laminated) moisture barrier.
Q: Can Crypton technology be applied to other commercial applications?A: Yes! We've applied our amazing stain, odor and microbial resistant technology to carpeting, wall fabrics, mattress fabrics and leather. Click Here for details .
Q: What separates Crypton from laminated fabrics?A: Crypton has an integrated backing that will never separate, permanently enhancing the performance of the fabric. Unlike Crypton, laminated fabric can delaminate, creating a pocket where germs can grow and moisture can pool, compromising the performance of the fabric.
Q: Can any fabric be "Cryptonized"?A: No. Our fabrics are woven and engineered in a specific way to ensure absolutely consistent results. That way, you know you are getting proven performance and can confidently tell the end-user that this fabric delivers on its promise.
Q: What tests must Crypton pass?A: Be assured that with Crypton, you have the only fabric that meets or exceeds all of the following heavy duty requirements: stain resistance, water resistance, abrasion, tearing strength, breaking strength, seam slippage, flammability, and resistance to fungal and bacterial growth.
Q: What flammability requirements must Crypton pass?A: All Crypton fabrics pass Cal 117, UFAC, NFPA 260. If you must pass more stringent requirements, we do make fabrics at the time of processing (not after) that will meet Cal 133 (with components), IMO RES 16-52A, Boston and New York fire codes, automotive, FMVSS302 and aviation FAR25-853. Tell your distributor that you need this, and they can order it to be processed accordingly.
Q: Can you use Crypton for outdoor applications?A: Yes, you can purchase Crypton Outdoor. It has all the features of Crypton and uses high-UV fibers. Standard Crypton fabrics will provide 40+ hours of fade resistance; however, 400 hours is the recommended standard for continual outdoor use. While Crypton has been used successfully in protected outdoor areas, we recommend Crypton Outdoor when sun is an issue.
Q: What is the difference between Crypton and Crypton Green?A: It is not in the chemistry that is used, but rather in the fiber content of the actual fabric. In order for fabrics to be given the Crypton Green seal, the select fiber must be either: 50-100% recycled; 100% heavy-metal-free polyester; 100% wool with heavy-metal-free dyes; or 100% polypropylene. The end product must also meet Section 01350 emissions requirements.
Q: Do Crypton fabrics have VOCs, including formaldehyde or PFOA?A: Crypton fabrics are third-party-certified for having ultra-low or no VOCs (volatile organic compounds that can be emitted over time into the air, adversely affecting indoor air quality). PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) is not used in the manufacture of Crypton Super Fabrics or INCASETM. Our state-of-the art chemistry allows our fabrics to be free of PFOA (no quantifiable level with a detection limit of 20 ppb).
Q: Is Crypton covered by any warranty?A: Yes. We offer a five-year warranty on our moisture barrier. What that means for you is that we absolutely stand by the statement that our fabric will remain spill, moisture, bacteria and odor-free!
Q: How wide is Crypton fabric?A: Crypton is 54" wide.
Q: Where can I source Crypton?A: Architects and designers can source Crypton through one of our distributors. Click Here for a list of Crypton Distributors.
Q: Can I be allergic to Crypton?A: No. We don't use chemistry that comes off of the fabric, but highly allergic individuals may want to check with their doctor. Some Crypton fabrics use acrylic latex, but never rubber latex.
Q: What are some of the bacteria and microbes that Crypton protects against?A: Crypton fabrics prohibit the growth of molds like Aspergillus niger and bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. Our fabric process also includes chemistry that prohibits bacteria and mold from spreading.
Q: Can Crypton be cleaned with soap and water?A: Yes. While Crypton fabric is the easiest in the world to clean, it's not self-cleaning. In reality, most new stains come off with a damp cloth and water. There is one suggested cleaning method that is universally and easily available – the use of enzyme detergent. A mild powdered enzyme detergent mixed with water is a very effective way to clean Crypton. Mix 5 parts water with 1 part enzyme detergent. If you'd like more information on how to clean with soap and water click here .
Q: How can Crypton be disinfectable?A: Crypton is the only fabric deemed a non-porous surface, and after working with the EPA for years to develop a protocol for testing, Crypton can be disinfected when used in conjunction with our U.S. EPA-approved Crypton Disinfectant & Deodorizer.
Q: What else does Crypton make?A: In addition to all of the beautiful upholstery fabrics, Crypton offers wall fabric, outdoor fabric, carpeting, mattress fabric, Leather powered by Crypton, INCASETM fabric treatment, after market furniture protection and a growing list of consumer products. For a complete list of our products, visit www.cryptonhome.com
Q: Where is Crypton manufactured?A: Crypton is manufactured in our state-of-the-art, environmentally conscious facility in Kings Mountain, North Carolina – and is proud to support American workers and American textile mills. All research and patented chemical formulations are developed and made in the USA.
Q: Is Nanotex owned by Cryton?A: Nanotex became a Crypton Company in January of 2014. Nanotex now benefits from the shared technologies of Crypton and Nanotex, which in turn will give both companies additional edge in the marketplace. Nanotex now benefits from the master branding capabilities of Crypton, as well as many other valuable resources. For more information visit us at www.Nanotex.com or call us at 248 855 6000
Q: Who can I call if I need support?A: For field support, call 800.Crypton (800.279.7866).

Great Goals: Who Can Rival Zlatan Ibrahimovic?
tumblr exclusive
British Pathé's archive of football coverage is extensive. Some of our most popular footage is of FA Cup Finals, and our collection of them can be found here. Have a search of the website for more.
We've been wading through the wealth of material for some classic goals in the wake of a certain footballer's terrific performance versus England on 15th November 2012.
Here, we present just a few of them…
Geoff Hurst, World Cup Final, 1966
Sir Geoffrey Hurst is the first (and only!) player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup Final. Those famous three goals came in 1966 when England battled West Germany for the heavily-sort-for title of World Cup Champion. The British Pathé cameras captured that tremendous occasion.
You can watch the contemporary newsreel coverage – in colour – of the 1966 World Cup on our website. Click here to view the film.
Bobby Charlton, England v Mexico, 1966
Sir Bobby Charlton scored 49 goals for England during his amazing career in football. One of his best, though, is undoubtedly the one he made in 1966 – the World Cup year – when he played against Mexico. Click here to view the film.
We're not quite sure who scored this goal towards the end of this newsreel (let us know!), but it's a belter. Click here to view the film.
Helmut Rahn, West Germany v Hungary, 1954
The late Helmut Rahn of Germany scored the winning goal in the 1954 World Cup final. He was playing for West Germany against Hungary. Click here to view the film.
Ferenc Puskas, England v Hungary, 1953
The year before, it was the Hungary team which was scoring with exceptional skill. Ferenc Puskas, that legendary player and coach, was playing against England when he scored this terrific goal. Click here to view the film.
Brazilian footballer Edison Arantes do Nascimento (or "Pele") performed so well at the 1958 World Cup final v Sweden that he earned a Day That Shook The World episode about him in the BBC/British Pathé series. A high honour indeed! Click here to view the episode.
And, of course, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who's had many espousing his goal as the greatest of all time.

- Excellent bag

I love my gym bag! It's just the right size; not too bulky, but holds everything I need and then some. The pocket for soiled goods is excellent; on one hand it can keep papers or other material dry, but afterwards it is perfect for sweaty, stinky garments.

When shopping for a Baby Bag, I couldn't find anything that looked like it would hold up to everyday use or fit my personality. Unitil I saw the Duluth Pack Gym Bag.
Paired up with the Duluth Pack Changing Pad (which fits perfectly in the bottom pocket), I now have a bulletproof baby bag system! The bottom pocket is ideal for soiled baby clothes and dirty diapers (bagged of course). Both peices are very high quality, and I could not be happier with them!

{outfit} I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas
This outfit made me feel like Marjorie Reynolds as Linda Mason in Holiday Inn (one of my favorite Christmas movies!) I have no idea why because it looks nothing like her outfits in the movie. I think it's mostly because of my boots and tights, because those are quite similar to ones she wears in a scene at the beginning of the film. Although she does wear skirts/dresses at a similar length and a big coat...

Scooter Braun, who plucked Justin Bieber from obscurity, is furious with him about his recent string of meltdowns -- and is concerned that he might be damaging prospects for his new flick, which is set to open on Christmas Day. A source says, "He had a sit-down with Justin and laid down the ground rules; no speeding, no spitting, no screaming threats at paparazzi, fans or neighbors, no puffing on funny cigarettes -- and absolutely no problems with police." However, Justin reportedly didnt' take kindly to the advice, and reminded Braun that without him, they wouldn't have a movie to release.
File this one under "no surprise here" -- Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting a pre-nup. Although both of them are committed to the marriage and aren't actually worried about it falling apart, sources tell TMZ that they also realize that with their respective fortunes, it's just the smart thing to do. And though they'll both hang onto their own money, TMZ adds that they've decided to create a big, fat joint account for living expenses and the such.
Dancing with the Stars' Julianne Hough says she's sorry for wearing blackface as part of her Halloween costume, insisting she had no idea she was being offensive. Hough wore the make-up, long considered racist in the African-American community, in order to look like the character Crazy Eyes from the Netflix series Orange is the New Black. When photos leaked, she apologized on Twitter, saying, "I am a huge fan of the show. It certainly was never my intention to be disrespectful or demeaning to anyone in any way. I realize my costume hurt and offended people and I truly apologize."
