I am a sincere, genuine and fun-loving woman who values honesty and integrity
Health and fitness are a part of my everyday and, I have more than a passing interest in nutrition. By trade, I work in Human Services. I am self-employed.
My haunts are many: the Philly Orchestra, Dance Celebration, The Art Museum, World Cafe Live, Indie Films and fun restaurants, like Cuba Libre, to name a few. I am a fair weather tennis player and have recently re-discovered golf, which I use to play as a kid.
I am divorced and have also been single again after a LTR. I have learned so much and, I am surprised by how thrilled I am to have this opportunity to begin anew.
While I do not have kids , I have recently lost my Standard Poodle of 13 1/2 years (last April). We were best buddies and enjoyed huge fun together. I expect to have another by the end of this winter. They are just tooo much joy!
I am looking for a trustworthy, conscious (of self and other), loving, and accomplished
man, who values honest and healthy living, good listening and who enjoys fun in all sorts of venues...the city, nature, being quiet, sharing who one is, travel and more.
I am grateful to be who I am. To be an American, to see beauty in almost everyone I meet and to have this opportunity to be alive now. I care about trying to make this world a better place, in many and frequent small ways.
I would look forward to hearing from you in the form of an e-mail, if you feel some resonance to this profile. Thanks!
ps....my photos without dates are two years old and I look the same.

Looking at the running game, the Dolphins ranked in the top third of the NFL in overall yardage. However, the Dolphins ran the ball more than 26 other NFL teams. And, they were only average in rushing attempt plus poor on third and fourth down percentage. So, despite the dynamic runs of Reggie Bush, the running game needs improvement. I think this will improve with a healthy Daniel Thomas. But, the the stats point toward the offensive line needing help. Also, it seems the Dolphins missed Mr. Automatic, Lou Polite.
Looking at the passing game, only three teams passed the ball less than the Dolphins — two were playoff teams Denver and Houston (who ranked 6th and 8th in yards per rushing attempt). The Dolphins were in the middle of the pack when it came to completion percentage, yards per attempt, and number of interceptions per attempt. But, the Dolphins were ranked third in the number of sacks given up. This again points toward the offensive line needing help.
It is worth noting that only three teams committed a lower number of penalties than the Dolphins. That is the good news. The bad news is the Dolphins' offense was tied for the most number of fumbles lost — a total of 13 including two by QBs and three by receivers.
So, with all the talk last off-season about having a more dynamic offense, the Dolphins still focused more on running the ball. What is inexcusable is we had a head coach, who was a former offensive line coach, that did not focus on having a good offensive line. That would have been my reason for firing Tony Sparano.
Therefore, I think the draft clearly needs to focus on the offensive line — sorry Dolphans. Picking up an offensive guard and offensive tackle in the first and third round of the 2012 NFL Draft (not necessarily respectively) would significantly improve this Miami Dolphins team. (Picking up one in the draft and one in free agency would do the same.) With all the fans and media clammering for a franchise QB, remember that Dan Marino succeeded because he had a good offensive line — he was given the time to succeed. Don Shula knew the importance of a good offensive line.
What do you think?

Super Bowl Recipe Month: Shrimp Rolls
"Even though I'm not a huge lobster fan, but I do enjoy a nice lobster roll with a beer and a game and lobster rolls have been on the master list of Football Foodie posting ideas for at least two or three years now. The problem with lobster rolls is even if you love your snacks and you love your friends, unless you live in Maine or Alaska it's pretty expensive to procure quality lobster for a few pals, much less a dozen hungry football fans. (Maybe if the Patriots were still in the Super Bowl and you and your friends are from New England and really wanted to splurge on lobster rolls so it felt authentic you could justify the cost BUT THEY'RE NOT SO HA HA HA HA YOU CAN HAVE PLEBEIAN SNACKS WITH THE REST OF US.)"

Every time I go back to LA I have to visit Sarah because she will either make great food or introduce me to a great place to eat.

Seriously thinking of loosing your belly fat? Read on. Belly fat differs from body fat in other parts of the body. When under stress your cortisol hormonal levels rise which in turn causes fat to get stored in the stomach area. It is generally known that the more fat that gets stored in your abdomen area the more likely you are to get some heart disease or some form of diabetes or the other. Because of this, ridding yourself of the unwanted abdominal fat is very important. If your waist dimensions is above 40 " (men) or 35 " (women), you will be at higher risk of heart attacks.
Because they were never sure of their next meal, belly fat was an important way for our early ancestors to store fat. Today, we often eat a lot more fat than we'll ever shed. To maintain a strong and low fat tummy, we need to burn several unhealthy calories which we take in, so that keeping the muscle tissue nicely toned then gets very easy.
Belly fat and obesity
Abdominal obesity is another way of saying Belly fat. Clinically, it is recognized as key obesity. Most people seem not to be aware of the risks that abdomen body fat pose. Great quantities of fat in the stomach can lead to great quantities of fatty acids from the liver organ. This will likely eventually bring about reduced insulin production therefore leading to Hepatic steatosis. This results in the accumulation of fats in the liver.
Tummy fat is metabolically active and so it is so much easier to shed extra fat there than from, say, your thighs. With an excellent program which will take into consideration suitable nutrients and 60 minutes of every day workout activity, it is possible to have fat loss and weight reduction. The most effective form of physical exercise for attaining a healthy abdominal is intensive aerobic exercise.
Belly fat is ugly; if you don't agree, then you must have it. Or maybe if you don't already have it, you probably don't know how individuals who have abdominal fat really feel about themselves. There are of course different opinions but if we are to agree on one thing, let it be that belly fat or overall body fat for that matter, is not healthy and we all need to get rid of it.
Stomach fat seems to be by far the most hard to clean fat within the entire body. No doubt, belly fat is tough to get rid of, which means you will need a very disciplined regiment of exercise and diet to get rid of it.
Exercise routines for loosing belly fat
When contemplating exercise routines to lose belly fat the majority of people think that they have to invest limitless hours performing sit down-ups and crunches. These alone can't do the work, and only focusing on them won't bring you the desired results, although they do indeed play their part. Research has shown it would acquire approximately 1000s of crunches to really burn a single pound of abdominal fat. The best option can be to combine abdomen exercises using cardio exercise routines and also nutritional modifications.
There are many efficient exercise routines to shed extra fat from stomach than sit down-crunches and ups.
Tummy fat is after all a part of unwanted fat. Consequently, to get it eliminate it, it will be smarter to handle high intensity whole body workout routines. This sort of routines will increase the body's metabolic rate and energy calls for. As such, the body will convert its stored fat for energy purposes. This sort of exercises involve swimming, jogging and aerobics.
People have fallen into the trap that you need to run a lot in order to see effective weight loss. You do not need to worry about having to work out every day for countless hours if you focus on quality exercises
Tummy fat builds up as a result of choices you make. Eating candies and cakes, drinking a lot of soda pop, not enough exercise, are reasons that contribute to excess fat accumulation in the abdomen. Far more calorie consumption create more fat, and more healthy exercises and choices can create a smooth attractive stomach.
Belly fat in particular needs to be eradicated if the abdominal six pack is to be seen. The thing to consider should be a well-balanced exercise and nutrition routine designed for eliminating excess fat, and not merely concentrating on the abdominals.
Belly fat workout routines that is a part of a well circular exercise regime will probably be the best remedy for getting rid of your unwanted belly fat. This sort of workout routines are made to enhance the muscle tissues found in your belly region. As these muscles become toned, there will be less room to store fat cells.
For ladies, they don't need to work the ab muscles specifically. What they really want to do is exercise a lot so that they burn lots of calories and fat. The secret is to accomplish intensive cardio and durability workouts which work more than concentrating only on individual muscle group.
Belly fat can reduce your metabolism and place you at a greater risk for illnesses such as diabetes, cancer and other heart disease. If you want to live a healthy life, consistently follow your exercise routine that produce result.
Today, losing the beer belly and getting a stunning and sexy stomach muscles is really a gradual process but is mostly definitely worth the effort. This can be accomplished through the help of a cycle trainer. Remember that its benefits are not only a healthier looking and sexier body, but also improved and long term health and fitness.
Tummy fat is not only the things you see, it may also be inside of your entire body close to your bodily organs. This may lead to critical health risks for example coronary heart disease and heart attacks. This is probably one of the main reasons why reducing abdominal fat is absolutely essential.
Other forms of exercise for loosing belly fat
Canoeing is another exciting and fun cardio exercise workout you can do together with your pals and shed abdominal fat quickly too. Canoeing and Rowing assist in burning up lots of calories. When you are using a rowing machine in the gym, it is not much fun, but if you go out rowing or canoeing, then it is much more fun and exciting. You will get considerably more satisfaction in canoeing, than you ever could in the gym.
It usually is a good idea to try out new things than stick to the same old boring exercise routines day in day out. Some people, because they get stuck doing the same type of workouts over and over, they stop making progress and stop losing belly fat. If you try out some of these things mentioned above, you will find that cardio training and workouts can be fun as well. The most important thing would be to get pleasure from what you are actually doing.

Is there anyone else out there who has a butt under their butt? Which procedure would be best for my problem, Liposuction or Smart Lipo? Please help!
Which is Best for Butt Bulges, Liposuction or Smart Lipo?
Doctor Answers (4)
Banana roll treatment
This is a trickier area than it would seem. The fat layer on the upper part of the back of the thigh helps to hold up the buttock above, like a column. If it is removed, there may be a worsening of sagging. A lot of experience is required to really get this right. Methods to enhance skin tightening with lipo, such as Thermage immediately after, may be helpful. We did a clinical trial proving that there is more skin tightening this way. Laser-assisted lipo, on the other hand (Cool Lipo, Smart Lipo) remains an unproven concept, for skin tightening, at least in the literature that has been published.
Microcanula liposuction almost always helps in this area.
The double butt look can be due to excessive fat above the butt crease and causing the butt to sag a lot or to excessive fat below the crease on the posterior proximal thigh (banana deformity). Either way you need to have that fat removed and the microcanulas tend to get some skin retraction that the old style liposuction just didn't do at all. You can rough up the under side of the skin alittle which allows skin contraction to occur. Laser liposuction does also cause skin retraction but has a tendency to cause dimpling or puckering of the tissue on the buttock. Most butts have enough dimpling or cellulite looks already without adding to it. Do the lipo first and if you wind up with too much saggy buttocks then do a buttock silhouette threadlift to elevate that butt. Good Luck, David Hansen,MD
Bulge under the butt
This is a good question. It is always good to research and to gain knowledge.
It is not uncommon to have a bulge under ones butt. As you probably figured out, exercise usually can not reduce the bulge. The reason for this is that is where many women store their fat. So the only true and effective method is to reduce the number of fat cells.
Liposuction, which has been performed in this country for more than 25 years. Traditional liposuction is among the safest surgical procedures that exit. It has a very low risk of complications if it is performed on someone who is close to her ideal weight and it has yielded excellent aesthetic results for many.
Smart Lipo is a newer technology that "may provide skin tightening". This techniques has recently appeared frequently on television and in magazines due to a very heavy marketing campaign. Unfortunately, as of yet, there are no accepted double-blind studies demonstrating that SmartLiop has any significant advantage over tradition liposuction.
Hope this helps.

I've been sleeping nude most of my adult life. Most of my partners over the years also sleep nude. Well, except maybe on really cold winter nights.

Reblog if Dollhouse is your favorite Whedon show.
To be honest, this is a vote for the underdog.
Buffy is the first born, the golden child who can do no wrong. Angel is the second born, who struggled in the shadow of a favored older sibling, but found their own path. Firefly is the beloved third child who died tragically young, and is always remembered fondly, more as an ideal than a person. Dollhouse is the misfit fourth child, sickly from birth, uncertain of their identity, beaten up at school and forced to develop at an accelerated pace and burn out. Avengers and Agents of SHIELD are foster kids who stayed for the summer. Dr. Horrible is the kid who was home-schooled.
I love Dollhouse the way Charlie Brown loved that scrawny Christmas Tree.

Where are the boys' arms?!
So what is slavery, an institution that is pervasive in human history in many different forms? The most obvious answer is to treat a person as property, but Patterson observes that slavery existed long before modern concepts of property and commerce. There's also the question of how to distinguish slavery from other forms of servitude, such as serfdom or concubinage.
Patterson has a three-part definition for the institution of slavery: violence (the physical), natal alienation (the cultural), and dishonour (the psychological).
A brilliant FSOG fanfiction that fixes what is wrong with it:
"We argued, and he tried to lecture me on what the word 'submission' means. I told him that the definition of the word 'submission' and the definition of the word 'submissive' in terms of BDSM are two very different things. I made it clear that I was not some kind of first-timer to this particular rodeo, informed him that just because I don't like anal doesn't mean that he's somehow magically kinkier than I am because he loves it. I reminded him that, as the sub—or slave, rather, as I made him correct the contract—I first outline every single rule and thing he can't do to me, and then once I sign, we go from there. I only sign away the rights I want to sign away, and I told him he'd better respect my right to my own ass. He agreed, but very, very grudgingly. In fact, he was downright mad that I had made him concede to my wishes."
Today while multi-tasking on my homework, I took some time to watch the Fifty Shades of Grey inspired Law & Order episode. The link to watch the episode can be found at the bottom of this post. :)
Overall, I thought it was okay. Without giving away too many spoilers, the episode follows a young…

23rd Oct: It's time for the second TV Tropes Halloween Avatar Contest, theme: cute monsters! Details and voting here.
main index
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."A Stock Phrase, usually spoken in response to an emergent situation wherein the speaker suddenly realizes either the sudden absence of a necessity, or that the one in his/her possession is woefully insufficient. They need more. Context is key here. If someone misreads their cookbooks and buys four eggs instead of six: "I'm going to need more eggs" is not this trope in that context. Someone turning up with six eggs and being told they have to feed cake to eight hundred cranky children and remarking "I'm going to need more eggs" IS this trope. In comedy, the trope can be played with by using it in a situation where no quantity of the specified item would be sufficient to overcome the problem. A sister trope to More Dakka, when you need a stronger attack; and Tim Taylor Technology, when you need MORE POWER! A subtrope of Dramatic Deadpan, containing that trope's top example.

I follow a person on Twitter but that person is locked. I think it's obvious to know why. But this story, via tweets, moved me today and I thought it needed to be shared.
So, to the tweets that I am talking about:
Here's something: at the end of a funeral for law enforcement, firemen, or paramedics, they do a radio call thing.
All attending turn radios on.The dispatcher will then call for the deceased, using their call numbers. It echoes over all the radios at the same time.
Getting no response, the radio dispatch will thank the deceased for their service, note their commendations, and announce them "off duty."
"Your watch has ended." It never fails to leave me a blubbering mess. Today, everyone was in tears. It's a powerful ceremony.
Today, the widow had no idea why they were calling her husband over the radio. She lost it when she realised what was happening.
"Did you know they were going to do that?" She asked me. "You're an asshole." She said, smiling through tears.
"If I would have told you," I said,"You'd have been dreading it. Wasn't this better?" She reluctantly agreed. Today was a good day.
Here is the audio recording of that 'last call'. Please don't comment on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08EdzXrQ4vc&sns=em

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from the Miami Dolphins' 35-13 win over the Oakland Raiders
- 11:15 am Tuesday, September 18th, 2012 by Post Staff
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from the Dolphins' 35-13 win over the Raiders:
* Reggie Bush. Obviously: Rushed for 172 yards on 26 carries (6.6 average) and added another 25 yards in the passing game, plus two touchdowns. In addition to showing off his breakaway speed, he also showed good improvisational skills on the 23-yard touchdown run. "If he did it exactly the way I wanted him to do it, it would have been a two yard gain probably," Mike Sherman said while laughing.
* Paul Soliai, Randy Starks and the front seven: Another dominant day for the big boys up front, limiting the Raiders to 23 rushing yards on 14 carries (1.6 average). Darren McFadden only rushed for 22 yards on 11 carries, and added two catches for only 19 yards as Starks (2 tackles, 2 QB hits) and Soliai (1 tackle, 2 QB hits, 1 pass deflection) manhandled the Raiders' offensive line. Karlos Dansby, Kevin Burnett and Koa Misi combined to miss five tackles, but overall did a good job in pursuit. Through two games, the Dolphins are fourth in the NFL in rushing yards allowed (106) and first in yards per carry allowed (2.2). And they did it against two of the best running backs in the league: McFadden and Arian Foster.
Rookie Report: Evaluating the Miami Dolphins rookies and whether they met expectations during training camp
- 9:48 am Monday, September 3rd, 2012 by Post Staff
First, a bit of news. The Dolphins are working out former Patriots and Redskins receiver Jabar Gaffney this morning, a source tells the Post. An 11-year veteran, Gaffney had 68 catches for 947 yards and five touchdowns last year for Washington and could give Miami a much-needed veteran presence at receiver. If all goes well today, Gaffney could be a Dolphin soon.
Now back to our regularly scheduled blog post…
Training camp is over and the Dolphins' roster is mostly set for Week 1, although the team still has to decide between Matt Moore and David Garrard and find at least one more cornerback.
Coach Joe Philbin has talked about his desire to develop young talent throughout the offseason, and currently the Dolphins have 10 rookies on their 53-man roster, plus two first-year players in running back Marcus Thigpen and fullback Jorvorskie Lane. They also kept four true rookies on the practice squad.
The Dolphins kept seven of their nine draft picks – fifth-round linebacker Josh Kaddu is on the practice squad, while sixth-round receiver B.J. Cunningham was cut and signed with the Eagles' practice squad. They also kept three undrafted rookies – center Josh Samuda, defensive end Derrick Shelby and linebacker Sammy Brown, who was claimed off waivers this weekend.
How did the rookies do overall during training camp? Let's assess their performance:
Clyde Gates, Chris Hogan confident they will make Miami Dolphins; Roberto Wallace wanted more playing time; and other thoughts from the WRs
- 1:11 am Thursday, August 30th, 2012 by Post Staff
The preseason is over (mercifully) for the Dolphins, and now comes the toughest part of the job for coach Joe Philbin and his staff – deciding who stays and who goes as they select their 53-man roster by 9 p.m. Friday.
Philbin will have plenty of hard decisions to make – figuring out the fourth and fifth cornerbacks and the backup linemen on both offense and defense – but none will be harder than deciding how many of the 10 wide receivers currently in camp will make the team.
Other than Davone Bess, predicting who the Dolphins' receivers will be is nearly impossible. Legedu Naanee has been a starter all preseason, but dropped yet another pass Wednesday night and is in danger of getting cut. And fourth-stringers like Chris Hogan barely played with the starters at all, but was singled out by "Hard Knocks" as being one of the team's most dependable receivers.
So instead of trying to project which receivers will make the team (we'll get to that later), we asked the receivers themselves what they thought of their chances of making the team, though we weren't able to talk to everyone after Wednesday's game at Dallas.
A breakdown of how the Dolphins' receivers view their chances:
Miami Dolphins pare roster to 75 by releasing WR Julius Pruitt
- 1:16 pm Monday, August 27th, 2012 by Post Staff
Dolphins fourth-year receiver Julius Pruitt was one of the Dolphins' best special teams players last year in the nine games he played after being promoted from the practice squad.
But his special teams prowess, nor his receiving skills, were enough to land him a roster spot this season. According to a league source, the Dolphins waived Pruitt today to get the roster down to 75 players by the 4 p.m. deadline. The receiver battle is now down to 10 contestants for five or six spots, although the Dolphins are likely to add another receiver or two after roster cuts via trade or waiver pickup.
Predicting the 53: Latest Miami Dolphins roster projection
- 10:05 am Thursday, August 23rd, 2012 by Post Staff
Four weeks of training camp are in the books for the Miami Dolphins. All that's left are two games (Friday against Atlanta, Wednesday at Dallas), three days of practice and a whole lot of roster cutting. The Dolphins currently have 88 player in camp after Eric Steinbach retired on Wednesday, and they need to get down to 75 players by 4 p.m. on Monday and to 53 players by 9 p.m. next Friday.
Here is our latest projection for the 53-man roster, plus the eight-man practice squad:
OFFENSE (26 players)
Miami Dolphins Hard Knocks recap: Team leaders meet with Joe Philbin about Chad Johnson decision
- 11:17 pm Tuesday, August 21st, 2012 by Post Staff
Highlights from Tuesday night's episode of "Hard Knocks," the third of five in the series:
* The show begins with team leaders Reggie Bush, Karlos Dansby and Jake Long asking to meet with Joe Philbin about Chad Johnson's release. They explain that they wish they could've known that Johnson was in hot water with the coaching staff about comments he made with the media, so that they could've helped him. "Alert guys that they're pushing it to the limit, let us know," Dansby said.
* The players really want to police themselves this year, as the Long-Dansby-Bush-Philbin meeting made clear. Long: "The last couple of years, we haven't been good enough about holdilng players accountable." The result of the meeting is Philbin agreeing to let the players form a leadership council once the final roster is set.
* The last 10 minutes of the show focused on the decision to name Ryan Tannehill the starting quarterback. Sunday afternoon, assistant quarterbacks coach Zac Taylor met with Tannehill and Matt Moore individually to tell them the decision, and each quarterback later met privately with Philbin. Taylor called Moore "the best backup quarterback in the league," while saying to Tannehill, "we're counting on you to lead us to some big things this year." Moore wasn't happy with the decision but handled it well. "All I can say moving on is I'm with you 100 percent," he said to Philbin.
Miami Dolphins Talking Points 8-pack: Ryan Tannehill needs to start vs. Carolina Panthers
- 12:45 pm Saturday, August 11th, 2012 by Post Staff
An 8-pack of Dolphins Talking Points following their 20-7 preseason loss to the Buccaneers:
1. It's time to see what Ryan Tannehill can do versus the starters.
One thing has become clear after watching Tannehill at a scrimmage, last night's preseason game and two weeks of training camp: He's much, much better than the backup defenses.
Tannehill tore apart Tampa Bay's second- and third-team defense last night, completing 14-of-21 passes for 167 yards, one touchdown (Roberto Wallace dropped a second one) and a 106.6 passer rating. He completed 4-of-6 passes on third down, with two conversions. And he has total command over the offense, which is to be expected considering he has the same coaches and playbook from college.
"He has complete control over the offense. It feels like he's been playing (in the NFL) for four years," said backup left tackle Lydon Murtha, who played all five series with Tannehill. "He just takes control, gets the calls out, throws the ball excellent."
But another aspect of Tannehill's game impressed coach Joe Philbin more than the raw stats – the way Tannehill read the defense before the snap and adjusted the playcall.
Miami Dolphins Aug. 3 practice report: Richard Marshall replaces Vontae Davis; David Garrard earns more snaps
- 1:52 pm Friday, August 3rd, 2012 by Post Staff
It was hardly a mundane Friday at Dolphins training camp. Plenty of interesting news and observations from today's practice:
* Earlier this week, defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle took issue with a reporter's statement that only one job on the defense – one of the safety spots – is up for grabs. The past two days, we've seen why: Vontae Davis has lost his spot, for now at least, to veteran Richard Marshall as one of the two outside cornerbacks in the base 4-3 defense. Friday, Marshall and Sean Smith began each drill as the two outside corners, and Davis would only come onto the field with the Nickel package (with Davis on the outside and Marshall on the inside).
Coach Joe Philbin said Marshall is "having a good camp."
"I really like what I see out of him," Philbin said. "Sometimes when you do the tackling drills and the blocking drills, sometimes you can kind of hear a good tackle or a good block, and Richard is one of those guys."
Miami Dolphins Talking Points: Does Matt Moore deserve a little benefit of the doubt in the QB race?
- 5:18 am Tuesday, July 24th, 2012 by Post Staff
A trio of Dolphins talking points with training camp set to start in three days:
1. Does Matt Moore deserve a little benefit of the doubt in the QB race?
Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said at the NFL owners' meetings in March, before the team had drafted Ryan Tannehill in the first round, that incumbent quarterback Matt Moore doesn't have any sort of advantage over newcomer David Garrard in the competition for the starting job.
"I told David, my only obligation to Matt Moore is he's a member of the 2012 Dolphins," Philbin said at the time. "He's under contract, he played well last year and he deserves an opportunity to compete for a starting job, just like David does."
Sure enough, throughout much of the offseason practices from April to June, there has been a lot of buzz – the kind of unsourced buzz that makes its way around talk radio and the interwebs – that Garrard has outplayed Moore. On top of that, agent Drew Rosenhaus said Sunday night on 7 Sports Xtra that he expects Garrard to open camp on Friday with the First Team offense, ahead of Moore. And Rosenhaus certainly hears what's going on – he currently represents nine players on the Dolphins, including three wide receivers.
But has Garrard really leapfrogged Moore in the quarterback race just based off of his performance in May and June? Does Moore's 2011 season with the Dolphins mean nothing? And if Moore and Garrard are about even after four weeks of training camp, does Moore not deserve any benefit of the doubt based on his incumbent status?
Chad Johnson's arrival could leave Clyde Gates as odd man out
- 9:17 am Thursday, July 5th, 2012 by Brian Biggane
Fourth of July was a memorable day for the former Chad Ochocinco, who changed his name back to Chad Johnson on the same day he wed the former Evelyn Lozada in an evening ceremony on Miami Beach.
In the next couple of months we'll see whether there are more memorable days ahead for the newest Dolphin or if, as some have claimed, last year's forgettable season in New England demonstrated that he's no longer got it.
With a receiver corps that otherwise goes only three deep in terms of any semblance of NFL experience _ Brian Hartline, Davone Bess and journeyman Legedu Naanee _ it would be a big surprise if Ochocinco fails to prove himself worthy of making the 53-man roster. With that in mind, here's a question: Which other receiver is likely to be most challenged by his addition? [More]

Red hot stick series!
These movies are awesome.
Super Mario Bros Z
It's a crazy Mario / DBZ crossover!
-This was some pretty sweet work. Has quite alot of things with which you should be proud of. All of your blade sound effects etc. were all correctly timed. And sounded better than most actual film sound effect...Though in a lot of cases that isn't to hard...But lets not get in to that one.
-The facial animation was excellent, but some of the body work wasn't to great really. The edges were a touch on the rough side. It is a kick ass story line though. It may be the basic revenge one, but you've taken the idea of it into a different manner. No longer is it some idiot going after a terrorist who knocked off his wife. But it's an actual working story line where a member of a group of knights (guessing it's knights here, might be ninja's or soemthing) is attempting to avenge the deaths of his friends. Works very nice.
props my man
really good dude, tits helped to change my vote too lol D:
@Vampirecat becuz its epic
its always epic to kill off te main charicter
Cool movie, but I'm a bit wanting
Love this movie when i watched it back in 04, but I've always wondered some of the things going on in the story. Mostly who was the centaur? Was she a loyal servant of the evil king, or some kind of mind controlled warped person? I don't know why, but that always bothered me. Now I watch it and wonder "Why is she wearing armor on he face, but not on her pink fleshy stabby zones?" I'm wondering if its just because the king (and the viewers) wanted to have a topless centaur chick around.
I guess some mysteries will never be solved...
Jerry, you daaaa man!!!!!!!!
THIS is RAWWWWW........and just about as good as it get's......good stuff JERRY!!!!

Russians in the NHL and the Quest for the Stanley Cup - Part 2
Часть Вторая…
"Я живу в Америке [I live in America] - Russians in the NHL and the Quest for the Stanley Cup" is a thesis I wrote upon graduating from the University of Virginia in 2009. Originally assigned for a class entitled "Amerika through Russian Eyes", the purpose of the class was to examine the relationship between Soviets or Russians with the American people and culture, from the point of view of Russian writers, artists, politicians, exiles, villains and heroes. In this piece, I explore the unique avenue that ice hockey gave a handful of Soviets seeking freedom, laying the groundwork for young Russians to later come to America in search of a dream. I hope to update this feature soon, as the KHL has developed, and the state of the Russian players on the Washington Capitals has changed since 2009. What follows is Part 2, but you can read Part 1 here.
"'Tikanoff', as they pronounce his name abroad," wrote legendary center Igor Larionov. "For nine years I was under charge of – or more precisely, under the press of, this man [and yet without him] it is impossible to discuss Soviet hockey, its successes and its failures."[1] Tikhonov ruled Soviet hockey as a "dictator"[2] for fourteen years and during his tenure as head coach of both the national team and the best team in Russia – Red Army (CSKA) – Tikhonov made sure he had a hand all things hockey – both on and off the ice. "A strict disciplinarian, [Tikhonov] drove his players hard year-round, [and] was considered by many (including players) to be cruel, harsh, surly, and ruthless," writes ESPN's Jeff Merron[3].
His demand that the team – his team – submit to a militaristic lifestyle made him unpopular with his star players, especially with Igor Larionov who detested living in Tikhonov's so-called barracks, and training for eleven months out of the year during which he was separated from his family. Rewards came in the form of meager financial bonuses and supervised international travel and although such rewards may seem small to Western audiences, these were privileges in the Soviet Union. But playing for Tikhonov meant one thing above all else: national prestige. His Red Army and national team players were heroes, heirs to a tradition of excellence that put them in a rarefied stratosphere in Soviet society.
Despite the militaristic lifestyle, young boys across the Soviet Union dreamed of playing for Tikhonov. Even Tikhonov's greatest critics once dreamed of playing for him: Igor Larionov, Vladimir Krutov, and Sergei Makarov, the famous KLM line, who together along with Alexei Kasatonov and Viacheslav 'Slava' Fetisov formed the powerhouse 'Green Unit', were all Tikhonov's willing charges in the early 80's, despite the way they would all come to despise and then abandon him by the end of the decade. Yet it was brainy centerman Igor Larionov and hulking defensemen Slava Fetisov who first demanded that the political glasnost of the 1980's filter down into the world of professional sports. Larionov in particular had chaffed against Tikhanov's system since his initial invitation to play with CSKA.
By 1988, it had become clear to Larionov that Tikhonov was man so set in his ways that he was practically welded to Soviet tradition, and that he saw little need to accommodate the fresh-thinking center. When the hopes of change seemed unattainable, Larionov took advantage of the new relative openness of the glasnost and perestroika initiatives to address Tikhonov publically. In 1988, he published an open letter to Tikhonov in the widely circulated Soviet sports publication, Ogonyok, demanding change and better treatment for players, a list of controversial complaints that essentially amounted to a call for freedom. "It was quickly discovered that while the Russian word ogonyok means 'small fire', what Larionov had set off was more like a bomb."[4]
Word of the letter even travelled all the way to North America, especially exciting NHL general managers in New Jersey and Vancouver who had 'drafted' Soviet players (i.e. used their draft picks to express their desire for Soviets to play in the NHL) like Larionov and Fetisov since the early 80's. Although his letter was groundbreaking, Larionov's plea for change did little to affect the system, ultimately resulting in a clamp down on his travel privileges and multiple benchings during the 1988 season. This was the final straw for Larionov who treasured his freedoms, as limited as they might be. His battle with Tikhonov had now morphed into a battle beyond hockey; escaping Tikhonov now became about human dignity and liberty. To that end, Larionov and Fetisov began to tirelessly devote themselves to securing a legal route the West. In Russian, the route to the West translated as "en-haych-el", НХЛ: the NHL.
While the aging legends of Soviet hockey Larionov and Fetisov were trying to pressure the Soviet government to legally release them from their military contracts, the young man dubbed the future of Soviet hockey had gone missing. Twenty year old Alexander 'Sasha' Mogilny was nowhere to be found, missing from a team bus in Sweden. "Mogilny, a junior lieutenant in the Soviet Army who had been selected by the [NHL club, the Buffalo] Sabres in the 1988 draft, had just left."[5] After the Soviets had claimed victory in 1988 World Championships (a victory that was to be their 21st), he had simply walked out of his Stockholm hotel, swallowed his famous fear of flying, and boarded a plane with his American mentors bound for New York's JFK airport.
As Larionov noted his in his 1990 biography, "Sasha dreamed of playing in the NHL. But he saw how [the Soviet officials] had harassed Fetisov, the famous Fetisov, for a whole year. Such a prospect could have hardly enticed a young player like him to stay."[6] For Mogilny, the prospect of playing ice hockey in America, free from the restraints of Tikhonov as well as from Soviet laws that discouraged the flashy American lifestyle of celebrity and money, was too tempting. The youngster knew America to be the future, and the Soviet Union to be the past. His hockey future, as well as the future of the game – the only place to play now – was America.
News of Mogilny's defection spread quickly throughout the Soviet Union as well as throughout North America, causing equal amounts of embarrassment for the Soviets and excitement for NHL fans. After all, American fans in Buffalo knew their team was readying home ice for the brightest young star of the famed Soviet school of hockey.[7] Yet Mogilny would not be the only Soviet player to make his NHL debut in the 1989 season. By the summer, the Soviet 'powers-that-be' finally relented and granted the persistent Fetisov and the patient Larionov permission to join their new NHL teams in the West by releasing them from CSKA: Fetisov to the New Jersey Devils and Larionov to the Vancouver Canucks. For the two legends, the realization of the dream to play in America, a world were freedoms were respected, was akin to a new lease on life. They had been given a new life, a new American life, free to pursue the life of the American athlete so admired from afar. And for Mogilny too, America was rebirth.

ASUS Tablet Ditches Windows 7, Goes with Android
Originally one of the most popular options for a tablet operating system, Microsoft Windows 7 has been losing ground to Google's Android operating system for mobile devices. ASUS is just the latest tablet maker to leave Windows 7 in favor of Android.
The ASUS Eee Pad was actually one of the few tablets left that hadn't converted to Android, despite Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer saying that Windows 7 tablets were coming soon . ASUS' Eee Pad, which includes a 10-inch multitouch display, will no longer be using Microsoft's operating system, though.
There is no word on when the tablet will be released or what version of Android it will be running. The latest version is Android 2.2, but reports indicate ASUS is planning to wait for the release of Android 3.0 "Gingerbread" before announcing the next generation of devices, and this tablet will likely run Android 3.0.
Regardless, things still aren't looking too bright for the future of Windows 7 on tablets.

Creativebug Online Classes
Have you guys heard about Creativebug? It is new website where you can learn to take all kinds of craft classes from your favorite crafters. Last week, I took a Creativebug class taught by Eunice and Sabrina Moyle of Hello!Lucky. They walked us through the process of using freezer paper stencils to make Mr. & Mrs. Chair Banners for a wedding. The whole process was really easy and fun. When I purchased the class, it was stored on the site so I could take it on my own time – and as many times as I want! I was really excited to see that some of my other favorite crafters (like Christine Schmidt and Heather Ross) also teach classes on the site. You can purchase each of their classes individually, or set up a monthly subscription and take as many as you want. I picked out some of my favorites below.
1. Mr+Mrs Chair Banner 2. Rice Paper Lantern 3. Paste Paper 4. Ombre Napkins 5. Pompom Garlands

Calligraphy Candle Place Cards
I've always loved the tall and skinny prayer candles found at the Dollar Store. Although inexpensive, they can be decorated to look quite elegant. I love the idea of using these for an evening event (like a wedding!) Light them right before dinner so they glow as each guest carries them to find their table. (Or, try these with votives inside.)
Hand Drawn Monogram Bags
Great packaging makes all the difference. These hand drawn monogram bags are super easy and work perfect for any kind of favor bag. We made them for a Valentine's Day project but they would work perfect for a shower or party too. What I love about this is you can throw it together right before the party. No major planning involved.
Materials Needed: A printout of letters, Muslin Drawstring Bags, a Paint Pen
Step 1: Cut out the letters you will need,
Step 2: Place the letter inside the bag where you want to trace it.
Step 3: Trace along the lines to create a simple monogram. Et voila! You're done.
Step 4: Fill with treats or cards for your guests.

Field of Flowers Costume
Happy Monday! I'm trying out a new way to work on posts starting today that will be more collaborative and I'm really excited about it. We've been working really hard on it and are still figuring out the details but I hope people love it as much as I have loved working on it. Since it's officially October 1st we thought we should start out with a Homemade Halloween Costume Series. This Field of Flowers costume is ridiculously cute and sort of had us wishing we had an adult sized suit of our own. It was pretty affordable and easy to put together but it did involve getting fancy with a glue gun (don't fear the glue gun!) See below for full instructions and our source for affordable flowers.
To Make a Field of Flowers Costume it is really very easy. Avoid craft stores when looking for fake flowers (their flowers are kind of pricey for this project) and head right to the dollar store where you get get huge bunches for $1.
Materials Needed: shirt, leggings, beanie, glue gun, and fake flowers.
Step 1: Remove fake flowers and leaves from stems.
Step 2: Dab hot glue onto the back of the flower and attach to clothing. Put the best flowers on the front and on the hat since they will be seen the most.
Step 3: Continue gluing but leave a 2″ area empty around the top of the leggings so that the shirt will lay flat when on.
Step 4: Finish adding flowers then have the costume tried on to look for any bare spots to fill in. Et Voila! You're done. The whole thing took us about two hours and was pretty easy.

Bridesmaid Kits from Menswear
This post is sponsored by Dove® ClearTone™ Deodorant – designed to visibly reduce underarm dark marks and even skin tone.
Here is a little project that takes about 45 minutes to do and about $6 in supplies. These little bags filled with gifts for the bridesmaids are made from old menswear jackets from the thrift store. You can find such quality fabrics in old vintage pieces to rework into something new. This project was put together by Alexis Birkmeyer and I think it is so clever. You'll need basic sewing skills but it is really really simple and takes less than an hour to make. You can find the template and complete instructions below. When it's done fill it with gifts for your bridesmaids.

"For nearly 50 years Max Ginsburg has created paintings that explore the human experience, ranging from everyday activities to social injustices. Throughout his career he has maintained a commitment to realism when teachers, galleries, museums and even institutions where he taught often viewed it with contempt." ~ Naomi Ekerigin, American Artist, December 2010
Max Ginsburg is a New York City artist with a conscience who earned his BFA from Syracuse University. He is regarded as one of the most respected and accomplished contemporary realist painters who paints the provocative issues of our time to comment on issues of class, gender and race. A Social Realist, he is outraged by war, the hypocrisy of our leaders and the social policies of a government leaving its' people behind. His concern for social justice makes him a humanist but not a sentimentalist.
HOURS: W, Th. F 2-7pm & Sat 12-4pm

I've decided that I'd like to take an image of my sisters laptop for convenice and such. I have both Ghost and Acronis at home but have never used the Imaging part of the suite (only Disk Director) and was wondering if someone could outline some steps to create and image.
Her hard drive is 80GB in size and as such I'd like the image to be recoverable from a external hard disk
The current drive partitions are set like this:
C: Windows XP
D: Documents
E: Windows Vista
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

If it shines, it's as a symbol; in every other way, Square One is worn down at the heels. It squats in the center of downtown, an entire block of shuttered buildings, all of them scarred with posters tacked up long ago by AIDS activists and the fans of L. Ron Hubbard. Wrapped around the southwest corner at Central and Adams is a Keith Haring mural, a vast map of black geometric shapes filled in with colors as bright as were once the city fathers' hopes that Square One would spring to life, and downtown with it. More seedily urban than any of the sparkling projects now surrounding it--the monolithic America West Arena, the thriving Arizona Center, the corpselike Mercado--it could have been in place when the city was born and appears ready to endure to the end.
But that's an illusion. With what some onlookers believe was stealth, the Phoenix City Council voted unanimously in July to tear Square One down, at a demolition cost of almost $1 million.
"At the very least, the city should have come forward and said, 'These buildings are really a wreck. To do renovations would be such-and-such in terms of dollars. We have tried hard, but we don't have any viable deals,'" says Michael Dollin, an urban designer who has consulted extensively on downtown projects, who was one of only three citizens to protest Square One's demolition in front of the city council. "That would have been fine. But they didn't do that! They said, 'Let's do this real quietly.'
"I can understand their saying it is a blighted block, but I do think it's a shame that we are tearing up our urban fabric at a time we cannot afford to rebuild it."
Which brings us to the next part: In Square One's place will go a parking lot. This is despite the city's own 25-year plan for a dense downtown that prohibits more surface parking and despite the protestations of at least two local developers who wanted to explore further the possibility of filling the block with tenants. It's the latest, and some fear final, twist in a decade-long downtown development saga that has raised hopes, wrecked the career of players such as developer Julian Blum and brought to the attention of city government such "wanna-bes" as Walter Switzer, who eventually ran for the city council, and David Therrien, an artist and fledgling developer who is building an avant-garde art center at the Ice House in the warehouse district. Not incidentally, Square One also has cost the city $10 million without a return.
The parking-lot decision comes at a time when the city's economy is crippled, not only by the recession but from the loss of sales-tax revenues, so that this year's municipal budget is smaller than last year's. Such shrinkage has never occurred before, a fact that throws a $10 million mistake into sharp relief. But the decision represents more than waste: It sounds an alarm that our downtown, which press accounts have been gushing is revitalized, is far from out of danger. And it has much to say about the values of a changed city council that places little faith in urban planning, the process that should allow a city to become more livable as it grows.
Most unsettling, the urban-planning implications of the Square One decision are Valleywide: Already, the city council has so de-emphasized urban planning that it has driven away its planning director, Ron Short, according to Short himself. Short resigned early in the summer and told New Times afterward, "My greatest concern is that long-range planning will not be done because of a lack of staff." Although reviews of Short's own performance are mixed--he is called "ineffective" by some insiders and credited with a great concern for planning by others--even his critics admit that there's not much understanding of the importance of planning among the members of the current city council. It has all happened without much publicity, perhaps because "urban planning" is the sort of phrase that makes both reporters' and readers' eyes glaze over. What is urban planning, anyway? And why does it matter that it's in the toilet during a year when police and firefighters are struggling to keep their jobs? Is it anything more than Nineties-speak, more than a frill?
It is. In an era when cities develop according to how far we can drive, urban planning can prevent sprawl from becoming uninhabitable. By defining land use and calculating growth, urban planning can keep neighborhoods conducive to family life. By embracing the environment, it can protect a city's natural resources and thus its beauty. By advancing design-review standards, it can safeguard aesthetics.
It comes down to this: Urban planning can make the difference between marking time in a city and enjoying your life there. Well-planned cities, like Washington, D.C., and Seattle, know how to spend their money (How will you design a water system for north Phoenix without knowing how many people will likely be living there in ten years?). Such cities also take in more money, since it often is well-planned cities that people move or travel to.

Drama students presented "Macbeth" in Therukkoothu style with telling effect
The second year students of the National School of Drama displayed a rare fluency performing William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" in Therukkoothu style, a traditional theatre form of Tamil Nadu. Staged at the Abhimanch auditorium this past week, the play was transformed into an experience of total theatre with distinct Indian colour. In this transformation the original script is followed with fidelity. This is not a simple, direct and straightforward theatre, a characteristic of our folk and traditional forms, but an intricate, complex and intensely dramatic theatre which steadily increases its momentum and moves to a climax that leaves the audience stunned to see the fall of a great warrior because of the morbidity of his wild ambition.
As a result of unity between content and form, the production leaves a deeper impact on the audience evoking a sense of terror watching the bloody struggle for power and throne. A lot of creative effort must have gone into perfecting the folk form to be made the vehicle to convey a world classic.
Director K.S. Rajendran, his team of artists and students went to the village in Tamil Nadu which is the home of this living art form. A theatre workshop was conducted under the guidance of the eminent Guru Purisai Sambanda Thambiran for one-and-a-half months. During this period students interacted with the traditional performers, watched their performances and learnt the technique of presentation. Essentially a musical theatre with dancing and singing its integral part, the form has flexibility. It could be staged as street theatre or on a makeshift stage.
Staging a play in Koothu form on a proscenium stage was a challenge for director Rajendran. To achieve the intimate theatre viewing experience, Abhimanch was given a new shape with slight alteration of seating. Near the downstage area, multi-level platforms were raised to seat the audience. Close to the upstage, a raised space was created which was occupied by musicians. Between the audience and the musicians there was enough space for the performers.
True to the form, in this "Macbeth" there is a sutradhar, narrator, who tends to be a comic actor as well as a commentator and often takes part in the action. The singing and dancing part dominates the show.
Another challenge to adapt the content to the total theatre form was to create a fresh Hindi translation mostly in lyrical mode to be set to music. Depending on the Hindi translation by Rahguvir Sahay, V.K. Sharma, a veteran theatre director and writer, has composed a number of lyrics, while some were written by students. There are some lyrics in Tamil written by S.M. Venkadam. The music score is by Ajay Kumar. The costumes are designed on the pattern of Koothu theatre style.
Full of energy, the performers revealed the great tragedy through their vigorous dances, singing to the rhythmic beat of instruments. A small screen held on either side by performers used to introduce characters evokes the element of suspense. On the bare stage the story of slaughter of men unfolds in a seamless manner. With the device of subtle lighting, an atmosphere of night is created because the murders take place at night. The director, musicians and performers create an ambience evoking a vision of terror, fear of death, dreadful image of a dagger. One of the highlights of the production is the way the breathtaking sword fighting scenes are choreographed.
The entire cast gives an inspired performance remarkably subtle and full of energy. Nehpal Gautam as Kattiyakaran (sutradhar) gives a lively performance. Rajib Kalita as Macbeth brings alive the emotional complexities of his character who has turned a killing machine with intensity. Towards the end, his Macbeth realises the absurdity of human destiny conveyed, in the famous lines "Out, out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player…" Suman Patel as Lady Macbeth makes a frighteningly dreadful image who forces her husband to commit the heinous crime of murdering Dunkan, king of Scotland and his benefactor. In the sleepwalking scene Lady Macbeth is metamorphosed into an image of irredeemable guilt, wandering in a lost world from which sleep has vanished. Oasis Sougaijam as Young Siward in the sword battle scene with Macbeth displays an excellent skill like someone trained in martial art.

Celebrity Central / Top 25 Celebs
Clooney is nominated for three Oscars: Best Supporting Actor for Syriana, and Best Original Screenplay and Best Director for Good Night, and Good Luck. In his acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actor, Clooney admits "we are a little bit out of touch in Hollywood every once in a while. I think it's probably a good thing. We're the ones who talked about AIDS when it was just being whispered, and we talked about civil rights when it wasn't really popular…I'm proud to be a part of this Academy, proud to be part of this community, and proud to be out of touch."
The silver-haired bachelor becomes the second celebrity to be twice-honored as PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive. He shares the double-duty with buddy and Ocean's 13 costar Brad Pitt. Months later, he's named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People for "using star power to illuminate the crisis in Darfur." After making his first trip to Darfur in 2006, Clooney made the TV special A Journey to Darfur with his father Nick, and advocated for action in the U.S.
After sporting Sarah Larson on his arm at the Venice and Deauville film festivals, Clooney, 46, and his new squeeze, 28, are involved in a motorcycle accident. The Harley-Davidson they were riding was hit by a car in New Jersey. Clooney suffers a hairline fracture of a rib, while Larson suffers a broken foot. In 2008, Larson becomes the first girlfriend ever to accompany Clooney to the Academy Awards, but by May, they calls it quits.
After starring in the drama Michael Clayton – for which he earns a Best Actor Oscar nomination – Clooney appears on the cover of W with Renée Zellweger. Besides promoting their 2008 romantic comedy Leatherheads (which Clooney also directed), the old friends poke fun at their alleged romantic relationship and their work together.
Days before the Academy Awards – where Clooney is up for Best Actor – he appears on the cover of Time. "For me, it's like being Hillary Clinton," says the Michael Clayton star. "If it weren't for Barack Obama, it would have been a very good year." Adds Clooney: "I thought Daniel Day-Lewis had the best performance of the year." Clooney's Oscar pick for Best Actor is spot on, as Day-Lewis walks away with the statue.
Clooney, 48, is spotted around Italy with Italian model and actress Elisabetta Canalis, 30. In September, the pair steps out publicly at a screening of his film, The Men Who Stare at Goats, at the Venice Film Festival, and she accompanies Clooney to the 2010 Academy Awards. "It's nice to see my friend so happy," Matt Damon says of his close pal's romance.
Clooney plays a lifelong bachelor – a character that parallels his real life – in Jason Reitman's Up in the Air. "I'm not completely unaware of people's perceptions of me," he tells EW. "I sort of felt like, if you were ever going to deal with it, this is probably the best way to do it and the best person to do it with." The film earns Clooney and his leading ladies, Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick, Oscar nominations.
Clooney, who organized an all-star telethon for the victims of the Haitian earthquake, accepts the Bob Hope Humanitarian Emmy award. "Its important to remember how much good can get done because we live in such strange times where bad behavior sucks up all of the attention and the press," says the actor, who tops the box office with The American in September. "And the people who really need the spotlight: the Haitians, the Sudanese, people in the Gulf Coast, Pakistan – they can't get any."
A few months after celebrating the actor's 50th birthday, Clooney and Canalis end their two-year relationship. "We are not together anymore. It's very difficult and very personal, and we hope everyone can respect our privacy," the exes say in a joint statement.
Clooney, 51, goes public with his budding romance with Stacy Keibler, 31, at the Toronto Film Festival. "They have good chemistry, and she can hold her own with the boys," a source says of the former WWE star. "I'm in heaven," Keibler Tweeted in July, adding, "I am the luckiest girl in the world."

Somfy has a lot of app-related goodness for its TaHomA system.
If you're not familiar, TaHomA is Somfy's home automation solution. Naturally, it combines a variety of Somfy goodies, such as window coverings, lights and thermostats. Now, it also combines the iPad and/or iPhone.
That said, Somfy doesn't just have one app, but a trio. Priced at $4.99, the original TaHomA app puts familiar graphics and remote control on any iPhone and/or iPad. That also means that when you take one of those devices on vacation, you can adjust things like the temperature and the shades while poolside.
The bump up to the TaHomA HD iPad app will cost you $29.99—and you're also going to need an iPad, since it's specific to that device. Besides all of the control both in and outside of the house, this version adds in the option to create Scenes and Schedules.
Last, but not least, is the TaHomA Teaser Demo. Coming to an iPad near you sometime in mid-2012, there's no word on whether this one will cost you anything, but it sounds like more of a promo piece for the company.
In other words, the Teaser Demo is pretty much just that, allowing users to explore and configure a virtual TaHomA system. By activating scenes and devices, users can learn more about the TaHomA system and Somfy's products. In other words, if you're on the fence about Somfy, its products or the apps, this would be the one for you.
App: TaHomA
Find it Here: TaHomA on iTunes, TaHomA HD on iTunes
Cost: Starts at $4.99
Officially, the company says the acquisition will not affect current users of Revolv systems, but that the product will no longer be offered for sale.

Excellent value
Our family of five (three kids ages 7, 5 and 3) stayed here for a long weekend. The place was very clean, as advertised and contained everything you would need for a long weekend. Booking, check-in and damage deposit refund were seamless. You are no more than a 5-10 minute walk from the nearest subway station (50th street) or a 10-15 walk to time square. There is a liquor store and several 24hr delis close by. The only negative about the place is that the apartment faces 10th avenue where you can get a lot of vehicular and people noise, even late at night, but I guess that is New York living.
Highly Recommend Staying here!
I was a little scared about booking a place through VRBO but I was very pleased when I arrived! I stayed here with four other girls (imagine that) for my 30th birthday.Although it was a little tight, we managed to make it work. The apartment's cleanliness helped the situation also! If you're looking for a great place to stay that's within walking distance to nice restaurants and close to drug stores, this is the place to be! I also received my down payment in a timely manner!
