Take the Bronx Zoo's courtship quiz: www.bronxzoo.com
New York, NY – Feb. 9, 2011 – The Wildlife Conservation Society's Bronx Zoo has developed a Valentine's Day quiz that determines which member of the animal kingdom shares your courtship style.
Are you like a tiger, or are you a softie like a titi monkey? Perhaps, you are a romantic like the white naped crane. By answering eight questions about what kind of partner you are, the Bronx Zoo's courtship quiz lets you find out which animal you most emulate.
"This quiz is a fun way for you to find out what kind of animal - whether it's a tiger or a monkey - you will be having dinner with on Valentine's Day," said John Calvelli, WCS Executive Vice President of Public Affairs. "I hope I'm having dinner with a romantic white naped crane."
Visit www.bronxzoo.com to take the quiz.

CHICAGO – For theater that is audaciously in-the-now and generates a sparkle of life, there are few better storefront (garage, gothic gathering place) groups than "Nothing Without a Company." Their latest, eclectic kick-in-the-head production is the intensely diverting and weirdly fun "Punk Punk."
Danny McBride
Unusual, Passionate 'Aloha' is Deeply ResonantSubmitted by PatrickMcD on May 29, 2015 - 9:34am
Rating: 4.0/5.0
CHICAGO – Films with major movie stars that take real chances on story formula are rare. "Aloha" is one such example, and produces considerations that are way off the beaten path. Is it an allegory? An absurdity? An homage to 1960s paranoia? Only writer/director Cameron Crowe knows for sure.
'This is the End' Turns Stoner Fantasy Into ComedySubmitted by BrianTT on June 11, 2013 - 12:59pm
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – When David Gordon Green's "Your Highness" hit fans of its writer/director and talented stars like a really bad pot hangover, its creators admitted that the project began life as a stoned what-if scenario. "Hey, let's make a pot-laced fantasy movie, dude." Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg's "This is the End" clearly had similar origins.
Jesse Eisenberg's '30 Minutes or Less' is Half Funny, Wholly DisappointingSubmitted by HollywoodChicago.com on August 12, 2011 - 1:07am
Rating: 2.0/5.0
CHICAGO – The new half-unfunny comedy "30 Minutes or Less" stands as a destructive come down for newly minted star Jesse Eisenberg following his high-profile role as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in David Fincher's "The Social Network".
Danny McBride, James Franco Falter With Dreadful 'Your Highness'Submitted by BrianTT on April 8, 2011 - 2:10pm
Rating: 1.5/5.0
CHICAGO – "Your Highness" just makes me sad. Rarely have so many talented people been sucked into such an unfunny disaster as what will surely be one of the biggest disappointments of the year.
Robert Downey Jr., Zach Galifianakis Are an Odd Pair in Funny 'Due Date'Submitted by PatrickMcD on November 5, 2010 - 2:27am
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – There is a strong temptation to lead this review with "Hey, 'Due Date,' 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' just called, they want their plot back," but this Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis star vehicle drives on its own strange vibe, part road trip and part comedy that depends on suspension of all reality. Yet it mostly works.
Oscar-Worthy 'Up in the Air' Gels With Shrewd Script, Fresh Faces, Unpredicted RealismSubmitted by HollywoodChicago.com on December 5, 2009 - 5:11pm
Rating: 4.0/5.0
CHICAGO – Director Jason Reitman is becoming like a fine wine. He's maturing with age, tasting newer with each sip and leaving an aftertaste that makes you think you'll savor what's next.
'Land of the Lost' With Will Ferrell Should Never Be FoundSubmitted by BrianTT on June 5, 2009 - 11:27am
Rating: 1.0/5.0
CHICAGO – "Land of the Lost," starring Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, and Anna Friel, is horribly conceived, almost entirely laugh-free, and with absolutely no personality of its own. It's one of the most inert, dull, and dead-on-arrival major summer films in a very long time with no target audience likely to be satisfied by it.
God's Vajoojoo Tastes Like Semi-Glorious 'Pineapple Express' in Judd Apatow, Seth Rogen Stoner FilmSubmitted by HollywoodChicago.com on August 8, 2008 - 12:01am
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – If god had a vajoojoo, Judd Apatow and company think it'd taste something like smoking "Pineapple Express". There's no question "Pineapple Express" is ultimately a stoner film, but is it the ultimate stoner film of our decade?
Always the most difficult proposition in a comedy is maintaining its comedic pacing with consistency.

Rolling with Detroit's mobile soup kitchen: Part One
The Salvation Army calls it the Bed and Bread program.
I call it the best and worst ride of my life.
Last weekend, I traveled along on one of the Salvation Army's mobile soup kitchens as it delivered food to Detroit's most troubled neighborhoods.
My position was as observing journalist. Within minutes, I stuck my little notebook in my pocket and grabbed some plastic gloves. It was time to drop the pen and put on some humanity.
The ride pushes your buttons. I call it the best because I saw such raw kindness. When there is a line, kids are pushed to the front. A little girl's bike fell over, and two men using canes came forward to pick it up. A handful of food was met with a quiet greeting and, more often, a blessing for those offering it.
I call it one of the worst for many reasons. Because I realized how ungrateful I am. Because the city is in worse condition than I knew. Because I was on the inside, those in need on the outside. Because I could only give a few hours when the Bed and Bread truck could have used my help all day.
I got the invitation to do the ride along about a month ago. The Salvation Army had been helping people outside Cobo Arena during the sign up for federal aid dollars, and I had been emailing Andrea, the Army's PR person, about that event. She suggested the ride along.
Once we had a date set, I joined Andrea, program head Karen Floyd Sanders and Major John Turner at the Acres of Hope Detroit Harbor Light Center on Lawton. I dressed warmly: winter coat, hat, gloves. Notebook, wallet, car keys. Ready to ride.
First, we visited the loading docks. Three red-and-white Salvation Army trucks are filled to capacity with food. Sandwiches. Hot soup. Bananas. Tubs of hot chocolate. Granola bars (snacks, essentially. They're supposed to be eaten later to keep people going, possibly until morning).
"If they ask for another meal, we give them an extra meal," Sullivan said. "We know that might be breakfast the next day."
The Salvation Army receives the food through area food banks like Forgotten Harvest and Gleaners. (Forgotten Harvest supplies The Salvation Army annually with more than 700,000 pounds of perishable food items valued at $1.59 a pound -- at no expense to the Army.)
"We have to work together because the problem is so big no one can tackle it by themselves," Maj. Turner said.
The trucks go out daily. Every day. Holidays. Sticky summer days. Frigid, gray winter days. Each is staffed with two people and hopefully a volunteer to offer an extra hand. It helps to have someone else on board so the staff can set up for the next stop. (Note: Ms. Williams, one of the people working on my particular truck, said she would like to have me back; it seems my momma raised a fine helper.)
The three trucks have some 45 stops to make. They start around noon and finish about 6 p.m. They serve 5,000 meals daily. Some stops have a dozen people to feed; others top out at 50 and more.
We hit the road, our observation van trailing one of the trucks. It's a long ride to the first stop.
"They count on it because it is seven days a week," Sullivan said. "The truck is the symbol. They recognize it for the food."
When we stop, people start coming out to meet the truck. They stare at the van. At this point, I'm feeling queasy, a mix of grim realization at what I'm watching and my own discomfort. The coat is too hot. The setting is too real.
Part Two...coming tomorrow.

There's more to see in Los Alamos than just what can be spotted through the windshield of your car. There are several walking and bus tours that take visitors off the main drag and onto unbeaten paths.
Los Alamos Historical Museum offers a tour that provides the complete history of Los Alamos. Museum Director Hedy Dunn said highlights of the tour include the Tewa ancestral pueblo, which dates back to 1225; Fuller Lodge; a memorial of the Ice House, which housed nuclear components for the Trinity device; and the World War II Army cafeteria that now serves at the Los Alamos Little Theater.
The tour is only about one mile in length, and "you see a lot of different aspects of our history," Dunn said.
She added the tour was started in 1979 as Boy Scout John Polzer's Eagle Scout project. Dunn said she remembers Polzer asking what he could do for his project and Dunn recommended a historic tour.

Gatland and Wales must adapt tactics
Posted: March 15, 2014|
IT would be remarkable if Mr Gatland did not have a plan for the Wales rugby team.
The trouble it seems, is that now just about everyone knows about it and reacts accordingly.
This is further compounded by the fact that there appears to be no Plan B.
Sunday's exhibition was particularly sad because of the unedifying sight of so much talent and effort going nowhere. Wales are better than "An Other vs Leigh Halfpenny's boot".
British Lions players do not become bad overnight.
England deserved their win and good luck to them.
In my opinion the flaws have been present in the Welsh game since the start of this season.
It seems strange that the same old tactics continued to be used while proven game changers sit on the bench.

Wu-Tang Clan Brings Us Chamber Music
By Tom Breihan on June 22, 2009 at 1:20 p.m. EDT
It's not quite the same thing as a Wu-Tang Clan group album, but the forthcoming Chamber Music compilation, due June 30 from E1 Music/Universal, is a welcome flashback to the era when it felt like a new Wu-affiliated album came out every week. For this one, the Brooklyn soul crew the Revelations laid down backing tracks, which Clan abbot the RZA oversaw and edited. You know you're dealing with a genuine Wu-Tang project when there are songs called "Radiant Jewels" and "Enlightened Statues" on there.
Six Wu-Tang members show up at least once on the album: RZA, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, U-God, and Masta Killa. Various other veterans of New York rap's hoodies-and-Tims era also show up, including Sean Price, Masta Ace, Cormega, M.O.P., and Kool G Rap.
The leaked tracks "Harbor Masters" and "Ill Figures" make this thing sound like some serious heady throwback evilness, the kind of thing that will keep us wearing out our rewind buttons until Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II finally comes out.
Tracklist below.

Flaming Lips, Frank Black, A Place to Bury Strangers Pay Tribute to Love and Rockets
By Ryan Dombal on June 3, 2009 at 11:30 a.m. EDT
In the mid-80s, Love and Rockets rose from the ashes of goth overlords Bauhaus and put a stamp on their own brand of scuzzy alt rock that would go on to influence everyone from the Pixies to Stone Temple Pilots. And now some of those in debt are paying it back with a tribute album dedicated to their cult heroes, due July 28 digitally and August 18 physically via Arsenal Rock N Roll/Justice.
New Tales to Tell: A Tribute to Love and Rockets features covers from Black Francis, the Flaming Lips, A Place to Bury Strangers, the Dandy Warhols, Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan's Puscifer, and others. Sometime agent of change Shepherd Fairey designed the cover. Listen to a few songs over at the album's MySpace.
Hercules and Love Affair Prep Mix CD
By Tom Breihan on May 27, 2009 at 4:00 p.m. EDT
Hercules and Love Affair mastermind Andrew Butler made a name for himself as a DJ long before he recruited Antony Hegarty to wail ridiculously great house anthems, so it's only right that he'd follow up last year's beloved self-titled H&LA album with a mix CD.
As Resident Advisor reports, the dance label Renaissance will release Hercules and Love Affair: Sidetracked on July 13. This CD will be the first in a series that Renaissance's Geoff Oakes describes thus: "Sidetracked has been developed to show the other side of bands from the electronic genre who can, and do, DJ. It's an opportunity to offer a diverse, unique series, which makes Hercules and Love Affair the more than perfect choice to kick-start matters."
The H&LA edition of Sidetracked is mostly jammed with ancestral house and disco. To give you some idea of what you're getting here, it includes a song called "Dream On" and a song called "Dreaming", back to back. The mix also includes one new Hercules and Love Affair song, "I Can't Wait".
The two-disc set contains a second disc featuring unmixed versions of most of the tracks from the mix (though not "I Can't Wait), which should make things easier when the songs come up on shuffle. Tracklist below.
News in Brief: Yeti #7, A Camp, the Most Serene Republic, Seaport Music Festival
By Tom Breihan on May 27, 2009 at 1:40 p.m. EDT
-- It's that time again: The new issue of Yeti, the zine/journal published by Pitchfork contributor Mike McGonigal, is out now. As ever, Yeti #7 comes with a CD jammed with rare and unreleased material from a whole mess of artists. This one includes Crystal Stilts, the Dutchess and the Duke, Woods, Grouper, and Nodzzz.
-- A Camp, the country-pop group led by onetime Cardigan Nina Persson and Shudder to Think guitarist Nathan Larson, have worked their magic on songs by Pink Floyd, David Bowie, and Grace Jones. The resulting digital-only covers EP, cleverly titled Covers EP, will be available on iTunes via Nettwerk on June 9. It'll go to all other digital stores on June 16.
-- On July 14, Arts & Crafts will release ...And the Ever Expanding Universe, the new album from the Canadian indie-pop crew the Most Serene Republic. Broken Social Scene's Dave Newfeld serves as producer. The band will play a few East Coast dates next month.
-- The Seaport Music Festival, the remarkably pleasant free outdoor music series at New York's South Street Seaport, will kick its season off on July 3 with sets from Here We Go Magic and Bachelorette. Superchunk, Polvo, Blank Dogs, Black Moth Super Rainbow, and the Pains of Being Pure at Heart are among the bands playing later in the summer. (Side note: Hit up the seafood place in the upstairs food court to get gigantic and cheap styrofoam cups of beer.)
Bill Callahan, Final Fantasy, Daniel Rossen of Grizzly Bear on Judee Sill Tribute LP
By Tom Breihan on May 19, 2009 at 11:35 a.m. EDT
If you're a wispy, ethereal folk singer who recorded a couple of forgotten albums during the 70s, don't stress. You will not stay obscure. Your time will come. The indie scene stays rediscovering its under-appreciated progenitors. Someday soon, someone will probably release a tribute album dedicated to you.
Next up for rediscovery: Judee Sill, a California singer-songwriter who released two albums packed with religious overtones, hungover reveries, and Graham Nash collaborations before dying of a drug overdose in 1979. In 2005, Asylum reissued both of her albums. And on September 22, American Dust will release Crayon Angel: A Tribute to the Music of Judee Sill. That's the cover above. Final Fantasy, Marissa Nadler, and Grizzly Bear/Department of Eagles dude Daniel Rossen all contribute Sill covers.
The album also features versions of two unheard Sill songs. Sill wrote sheet music for both tracks, but no recordings of either one have been discovered. Beth Orton takes on one song, "Reach for the Sky", and Bill Callahan handles the other, "Like a Rainbow". Tracklist below.
Devendra Banhart, Marissa Nadler, Alela Diane on Benefit Compilation
By Tom Breihan on May 14, 2009 at 3:50 p.m. EDT
Freak-folkies aren't greedy. For the most part, they're happy with a campfire and a few questionable substances. Many members of the acoustic underground have once again put their efforts towards a worthy cause. Buck Curran of the Maine band Arborea has curated and produced Leaves of Life, a new compilation that benefits two nonprofit groups, the World Food Programme and Not on Our Watch.
Devendra Banhart, Marissa Nadler, Anni Rossi, and Alela Diane all turn in tracks. Nalle's Hanna Tuulikki drew the cover (above). Leaves of Life will be out June 23 on Borne! Records. Tracklist below.
News in Brief: Jack White/Dex Romweber Duo, Sia, The Sounds, Kitsuné
By Amy Phillips on May 7, 2009 at 2:40 p.m. EDT
-- Jack White is all over the new single, "Last Kind Word" b/w "The Wind Did Not Move", from the Dex Romweber Duo, fronted by Dex Romweber of the Flat Duo Jets (a hero of Jack's). White produced the 7" at his own home studio, and will release it on his own label, Third Man, later this month. He also sings, plays guitar, bass, and musical saw on the single. Musical saw!
-- On May 19, pop eccentric Sia will release the live DVD TV Is My Parent on Monkey Puzzle Records/Concord Music Group. The DVD features a live show recorded in New York City in 2007 as well as music videos and behind-the-scenes footage. She also released an iTunes exclusive EP, LIVE from Sydney, this week.
-- Cheesetastic Swedish pop-punk band the Sounds will release their new album Crossing the Rubicon June 2 on Original Signal Recordings. They'll be on tour with No Doubt all summer.
-- The hip French record label/fashion house Kitsuné will release their latest compilation, Kitsuné Maison 7: The Lucky One, on June 9 in the U.S. It features tracks from Phoenix, Golden Filter, Heartsrevolution, La Roux, and more. You can hear one track from the comp, Yuksek's remix of AutoKratz's "Always More", over in Forkcast.
Three-Disc Britpop Compilation Due
By Ryan Dombal on April 29, 2009 at 12:45 p.m. EDT
When I think "Britpop," the first thing that comes to mind is Oasis. Then Blur. Then Oasis vs. Blur. Then the "Wonderwall" video. And so on.
But an upcoming three-disc compilation titled Common People: The Britpop Story features neither Oasis nor Blur, according to NME. But the set-- out June 8-- does feature 1990s UK classics from Pulp (duh), James, Supergrass, the Stone Roses, and Super Furry Animals. And a bunch of less notable relics like Embrace, Gay Dad, and Menswear. This particular nostalgia fest seems seriously flawed, if randomly fun.
The comp is packaged with liner notes from Saint Etienne keyboardist, Pitchfork contributor, and Britpop-era Melody Maker scribe Bob Stanley. Tracklist below:
Dan Deacon, Xiu Xiu, Frog Eyes on Tiny Mix Tapes Darfur Benefit Comp
By Tom Breihan on April 23, 2009 at 4:15 p.m. EDT
Most benefit compilations, even the really good ones, swing towards the middle of the road musically in an (understandable) effort to rope in as many buyers as possible.
Not this one.
The folks at Tiny Mix Tapes have put together a comp called Tiny Mix Tapes, Vol. 1: Darfur. It's on sale now, and the proceeds go to the International Rescue Committee, which aids refugees in crisis zones.
The artists contributing to this thing represent a great cross-section of the indie rock universe's most experimental quadrants: Dan Deacon, Jim O'Rourke, Mount Eerie, Xiu Xiu, Why?, Frog Eyes. All these guys contribute exclusive tracks. After all, noise freaks have hearts too.
Tracklist below.

European Immigrants in Marrakech
by Daniel Pipes
Translations of this item:
This phenomenon confronts Moroccans with something akin to the problems facing their counterparts in European cities: They
Although they consistute less than 1 percent of the city's population, Europeans are making their mark:
The Moroccan response is less than one of unalduterated delight: "The Europeans are buying us out of our city." To which Europeans reply: "It's the Moroccans who are selling their houses." To which a Moroccan answers that the newcomers are offering such huge sums that the locals cannot say no: "Europeans can afford sums that Moroccans have never seen."
The article ends, however, with reciprocal good feelings. A European states: "The fact that Europeans are coming to live here is a change that benefits both communities." A Moroccan agrees: "Europeans create jobs. And it's pretty nice having them around."
Comments: (1) No one is calling discontented Marrakechis "racists." (2) Muslims unhappy with a Western presence undoubtedly sympathize when the equation is reversed. (May 24, 2010)

National Civil Rights Museum: MLK & Lorraine Motel
// September 15th, 2011 // America
With only one night in Memphis, we knew we had to make the most of it. Sure, we went to see the famous Peabody Ducks, poked around Beale Street, and even caught a bit of Elvis-mania, but our first stop was perhaps the most important: the National Civil Rights Museum. Housed in the Lorraine Motel, it's at the very site that Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968.
I grew up in the south. Black History Month was a big event every year in school. I know the facts. But it's a different experience to stand in front of room 306 instead of flipping through a history book. As we rolled into Memphis, the city wasn't quite what I expected. It was empty… like creepily and eerily deserted. It reminded me of my brief stay in Dar Es Salaam. It was a weekday afternoon around lunchtime, so I expected people to be at work downtown and strolling the sidewalks. Instead, we just saw a bunch of guys sitting on a curb, smoking in front of a convenience store… that's it. After a few wrong turns, we pulled into the parking lot of the museum and were relieved to see other people around.
About the Museum:
The museum is housed in two buildings: the Lorraine Motel and the building across the street where the assassin stood. The first part of the tour takes place in the motel and begins with an excellent video narrated by Dr. King's friend who was present on April 4th. Following the video, you walk through the main part of the exhibit about the Civil Rights Movement and then get a peek inside room 306. After, you walk across the street to read more about the days leading up to the assassination, the search for the killer, and human rights movements in other parts of the world. While I was there, the Lorraine Motel also had a temporary exhibit on building the museum.
While it was a bit too much information overload (the wall presentations have so much wording that it would be impossible to read everything) it was worth visiting. As we exited the museum, we spotted yet another interesting character (pictured below) on the sidewalk. A former resident of the Lorraine Motel, she claims to have been on this street corner for 23 years, protesting the museum and what it stands for. When we went to go talk to her, she was on her cell phone. However, we gathered from the signs and papers on the table, that instead of a museum, she would rather see the motel turned into something like a halfway house or school to benefit the community. She thinks the idea of tourism and the museum goes against everything Dr. King stood for. I think her argument is highly debatable… any thoughts? Is the museum a good idea or a bad tourist trap?

Nice that you were able to visit a little bit of black history while you were there. I don't know if I really agree with what the lady is thinking but 23 years is a long time to be trying to prove her point. I can only imagine all the information you were presented with.
Bookmarked for my eventual road trip.
I can see both sides to the debate here. Gotta hand it to her for her passion.

Well, at least you are honest and now know more about the story. Have you visited the 16th St. Baptist Church in Birmingham, AL.? That also has the infamous park where "Bull" Connor sent his dogs and firehoses to attack MLK and the Freedom Marchers (many of them were middle/high school children). The park is right across the street from the church. Another powerful site to be in if you are into the Civil Rights history.
Yeah, you could call it a tourist trap. Most things that tourists want to see are! The guy is dead now, so there is no point trying to imagine what he would have thought about it… At least people are being educated about the struggle for equality!

Today at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, Microsoft has officially confirmed that Windows Phone 8 is set to receive a major update this spring, and it also took its time to offer some details on the changes that will be included in it.
According to Joe Belfiore, VP, Operating Systems, Microsoft, the upcoming OS version is meant to provide users with a new experience, which includes support for dual-SIM hardware.
Users will have full control of each of the two SIM cards, the company says, adding that the platform will also feature Live Tiles for each of the cards.
The upcoming version is also meant to offer expanded hardware support, which includes more flexible hardware requirements, Belfiore said.
Among the enhancements that the platform will feature, and which have been detailed today, we can count support for a wider range of Qualcomm processors (Snapdragon 200, 400, and 400 LTE), with a focus on bringing Windows Phone devices to more price points.
One major change that Windows Phone 8.1 will bring – provided that Microsoft indeed releases it under this name – will be support for on-screen keys.
Basically, the three front buttons that Microsoft has imposed on Windows Phone devices will no longer have to be physical/soft ones. At the same time, a camera button on Windows Phone 8.1 will no longer be required, Microsoft has unveiled.
The update will also add support for more connectivity, along with enhancements for devices featuring only 4GB of internal memory and 512MB of RAM. This includes support for having apps stored on microSD cards.
The company is also working with partners to bring more applications to the platform, including Facebook. In fact, Belfiore confirmed today that Facebook Messenger would arrive on Windows Phone soon, maybe in a matter of weeks, but he did not offer a specific release date for it.
Another important announcement made today was that more companies will be jumping into the Windows Phone boat, including Foxconn, ISR, Karbonn, Lenovo, LG, Longcheer, ZTE, and Xolo.
Microsoft did not unveil a new smartphone, but it did say that its partners might be making such announcements in the coming weeks. Rumor has it that Windows Phone 8.1 will be fully unveiled in April, most probably accompanied by the first devices to run under it.

After spill, water ban lifted for part of W.Va.
Work continues around storage tanks at Freedom Industries storage facility in Charleston, Va., Monday, Jan. 13, 2014. The ban on tap water for parts of West Virginia was lifted on Monday, ending a crisis for a fraction of the 300,000 people who were told not to drink, wash or cook with water after a chemical spill tainted the water supply. Gov. Earl Tomblin made the announcement at a news conference, five days after people were told to use the water only to flush their toilets. (AP Photo/Steve Helber)
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Safe tap water gushed from faucets and shower heads in West Virginia on Monday, a welcome sight and sound for a small fraction of the 300,000 people who have not been able to use running water since a chemical spill five days ago.
It could still be days before everyone in the Charleston metropolitan area is cleared to use the water, though officials said the water in certain designated areas was safe to drink and wash with as long as people flushed out their systems. They cautioned that the water may still have a slight licorice-type odor to it, raising the anxieties of some who believed it was still contaminated.

Raw Data: FREE Android Phone AND Unlimited Data, Text & Voice Only $39.99 per Month
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011 at 1:35 pm.
If you have been on the lookout for an affordable cell phone plan (or maybe you have been considering upgrading your plan to have more text and/or data options or to snag a better phone), then you'll definitely want to take note of this post. Seriously… I think this is one heck of a deal!
Raw Data, a research company that focuses on media consumption, is currently looking for panelists to help them understand what people watch on TV, listen to on the Radio, and browse on the Internet. If you qualify to be a Raw Data panelist, you'll snag a FREE Android Phone AND unlimited everything (data, text AND voice!) for just $39.99 per month including tax! Yep… under $40 a month for all of that!
How does this work?
How is Raw Data able to offer a free phone and such a cheap cell phone plan?
The free cell phone provided by Raw Data contains an app that transmits fingerprints to their servers, and this tells broadcasting companies and advertisers what you listen to on the radio and what you watch on TV. If a commercial comes on and you change the channel, this tells them their advertising is ineffective, annoying, or boring. Raw Data is paid by advertisers to perform this research.
Isn't this an invasion of privacy?
Raw Data's cell phones are trained to recognize just TV and Radio, everything else is ignored. The phones are not listening to your conversations. The RawData application is programmed to match up with different 'finger prints' that occur every 3-4 seconds in different forms of media broadcasting, IE: television, radio, etc. No actual audio is ever transmitted.
Benefits of Being a Raw Data Panelist:
* FREE Android cell phone subject to phone selection (typically an LG Optimus S or Nexus S)

May be a good deal financially but too CREEPY for this frugal gal! Yikes. There's enough of big brother around muchless to invite it into your life so blatantly and digiatlly so you really have no control over what they do and don't do…
Please proceed with caution on this one…
I totally agree… watching your computer and such… a little too big brother for me too.
I agree–too invasive.
Just so you guys know, unless the battery is out of your phone (ANY cell phone, not just the smart ones) anyone who knows how can tap in and listen through the phone speakers to anything that is going on in the room even if your phone is off or not being used…
Ooooh, that sounds so scary! I better get rid of my phone! Just kidding – where did you hear that and how can you "tap in"? TIA
Wow,you have never read about that. Research it yourself and you'll see that it is indeed true…..and scary as heck.
There's also many rumors out there that those "lifeline" or "assurance" govt phones are used to spy on ppl in that same way.
Look it up.
My husband does it for a living. lol Not that anyone cares enough about us little 'nobodies' to do it to us though. :D
Molly, if your husband does it for a living you better believe someone is also checking up on him too.
Boy am I boring them….lol
I agree…it seems like there's just too much that can go wrong, the year contract, etc…does anyone have any previous experience with this plan/company?
I've had this service for about a year. I was on the Sprint side and was forced to move over to Verizon and buy a NEW phone, Security deposit, and monthly rate costing me some bigger than normal bucks at the first of the month. They sent me the wrong phone and told me that the phone I ordered is on backorder. IT'S BEEN A MONTH! Cheaper is not better. I'm going back to my old carrier and getting better service. Screw them. I'm out $250 with a crappy little candy bar phone!!!! FAIL.
DITTO. What Vicki said.
not trying to start an argument. but how is it creepy if they keep track of what you watch on tv and listen to on the radio? there are already companies who keep track of what you watch on regular cable tv anyways.
Was thinking the same thing…..everything is tracked these days (notice how the H2S ads on the right are based on what your internet browsing history is??). Thanks for posting this, Collin – I think that the people on this blog are pretty savvy and vigilant!
They arent gonna tell you they are listening to everything…. Since when does the govt tell the whole truth anyway! Yall can have that plan! Ill pay what im payin, & stay away from big brother myself. U might think certain people are "paranoid" but we are just educated on the situation!!
I went through and actually qualified for it (figures, the one thing I have no intention of doing is the one I qualify for lol)
Yikes though. Never heard of this company, and wanting all info and money now, and then to watch every move? F that. I'll stick with my little AT&T plan thank you very much
I did the same thing and qualified as well!
if you want a cheap phone plan… switch to virgin mobile… prepaid plan with smart android phones with unlimited data and includes phone/texting for $35 a month.
Heck ya we switched over to VM in June of 2010 and we pay $25/mo!
Problem is VM runs on the Sprint network, which is fine if you live in a major metro area, but if you're in a < 200,000 population area then it's SLOW and SPOTTY (I know from experience).
Try straightalk we pay 45 a month per phone for unlimited everything
Really!? I live in an area of 10,000 and travel extensively….I have spots here and there that have zero coverage but have a good service otherwise.
I'll stick with my Virgin Mobile no-contract plan. I got an android phone for $105 (Optimus V) and pay only $25/month for unlimited text, data and 300 minutes… and no contract… and no one is watching me. :)
Ditto :)
I live in the sticks and VM has had better service for us than crap-izon did!
I dont see any info on their site about a 25$ plan… can you provide more info plz
I have the $25 plan that I signed up for last year. They recently raised the rates and adjusted the plans, so you won't find the $25 plan anymore. (if you had the $25 plan prior to the increase, you're able to keep it.)
I've had Virgin Mobile for a few years now and love it! Never had any problems. And love the No Contract!
Seems like a nice offer – However they do want some money up front – I qualified just dont get paid till friday :-(

I didn't see if there is a contract – if there is im out!
This company should not be charging you $39.99/month for this 'deal'… they should be paying YOU! The price isn't even that competitive, compared with what you can get with no-contract carriers. AND they require a one-year contract? Yikes.
Yeah, I thought it was really weird that you have to pay.
I totally agree. For them to gather all of that information, I can't believe they're not picking up the cost of the phone. I wouldn't be interested either way though.
I really need a new phone, but this is kinda creepy to me.
They have a facebook special for $30/month. See https://www.facebook.com/RawDataInc?sk=app_100783790015943
I have been a panelist for over a year now. I got in when they were just starting up. Its based out of Salt Lake City and is totally legit. You can contact them directly for more info too. They are always available to help via phone or e-mail.
Do you have a rep code? Does Collin?
Collin… normally I love your deals… but this one is CREEPY. No thanks!!!
NO CONTRACT!!! NO KIDDING!!! Read on…
Metro PCS-4 Lines for $100. a month. Again, NO CONTRACT!
This includes unlimited talk, text and WEB!!!!
Offer limited til end Dec. 2011.
Need a frugal plan with NO CONTRACT? Don't you love those words?
Metro PCS.
Featured today on Clark Howard's front page.
My uncle in Florida has Metro and loves it. I loved his phone when he brought it with him to NC because the google maps on his phone was SO much more efficient than it was on my old droid.
My Verizon contract is only $40/month and my Android phone was free. I get unlimited text, data, and mobile-to-mobile minutes, but only 700 land line minutes per month. I can also add any other family members for only $10 month (with limited data usage for them). I was going to comment earlier, but I didn't want to sound like I wasn't thankful for Colin's posts – because I am VERY grateful to her!! I just wanted people to know that there may be other equally good phone deals out there that don't give off the "big brother is watching" vibe. LOL.
OMG, you're kidding! And who can argue with the likes of our ever vigilant consumer advocate Clark Howard?
I am all over this deal.
No contract-music to my cell phone ears :)
I am CEO of RawData and wanted to add some clarity to the comments and explanation:
1 – The plan is unlimited minutes. There are no minute restrictions to land lines or mobile phones. Additionally, there is unlimited roaming (domestically). It really is that simple, unlimited everything.
2 – The plan is provided by one of the 3 largest carriers.
3 – We are a consumer research company with the sole intent of determining the radio, tv, and website preferences of consumers. Outside of determining those media preferences nothing else is recorded in our system. Our technology is only trained to recognize media.
Thanks for coming on and further explaning
I would seriously consider doing this if you had a companion type deal thing….I just want us both with the same carrier/program. It isn't really a deal otherwise because so many of the companion plans could get us both cheaper rather than each of us going alone with someone.
Chad, thank you for coming on here and helping us out…I just called and talked to a very sweet young man..he said I have 30 days to return the phone if I am unhappy with it…thanks so much for having a great team!! jules
What is the length of the contract?
Hi I seen that you are the CEO I had a guy call me tonight saying I qualified for the plan and I would be getting started right away it only takes five days to receive my phone he explained the whole gig to me via phone call then he asked for my debit or credit card number to get started!Of course not being an idiot I asked if I could just sign up online,he then asked me to hold one moment well he could check his information and hung up on me so is your company a scam or is there people using your company for there own scams? This makes me very angry what if I proceeded I would probably have an empty bank account!!! I think you should definately contact me please…
I found this in the RawData Privacy Policy:
Information Collection
RawData collects samples from your immediate environment throughout the day as well as demographic information. These samples can be collected in a variety of formats ranging from recording AMBIENT NOISES, internet cookies or other tracking agents, surveys, and other means. The samples are then combined with the demographic data.
Thought it was stated by the CEO that "sole intent of determining the radio, tv, and website preferences of consumers. Outside of determining those media preferences nothing else is recorded in our system. Our technology is only trained to recognize media." Wouldn't ambient noises include conversations etc?
I'd do it, if I could use my IPhone! I cant get rid of my Iphone but would LOVE a cheaper deal for service!
if you look at their facebook https://www.facebook.com/RawDataInc?sk=app_100783790015943, it says "One thing is certain, you phone will be previously loved! However, if you don't love it like the last owner. You are welcome to buy a Sprint phone off of Craigslist or E-bay and we can help you get it set-up on the super cheap RawData plan" this is on the $30 plan. Hope this helps!
I qualified and my phone is on its way. I don't see any problems with this deal… just need to find my hubs a good deal as well because this now means i have to cancel my phone from our plan and it leaves him as a single.
I was very interested in doing this, but called to see about what carrier is used, as some have bad service in our area, as well as if family members could be added to the plan. I was told the provider is Sprint and that no family plans are available at this time. Hope that helps someone else decide whether or not to participate.
Oh, boo!!!!!!! Was so excited until I realized it was provided via Sprint. Sprint gets terrible coverage in my neck of the woods and since I literally live on the Canadian border, they often wind up charging their customers for roaming when they are not actually roaming (and I mean INTERNATIONAL roaming which can get sooo pricey!). I would absolutely love this… However, I have Verizon now and they charge me $75 a month for unlimited data, texting w/in my circle of 10 (from back when it was Alltel), and unlimited calls to my circle as well… I also participated in a consumer panel by beta testing and received a free lg vortex smartphone… I think I will stick with what I've got… Really wish I could take advantage :)
I have Verizon too. One day I called for something (can't even remember what it was) and they offered me a special "Texas" plan (I live in Texas) that gave unlimited mobile-to-mobile minutes for the same rate I was paying. It might be worth a phone call to them just to see if they have any current specials that would be a better value for you. Hope that helps!
I was actually planning on going in to change my phone plan today and am considering this. I love my service with Verizon and am not sure about Sprint, but Verizon's fees are a lot higher. Does anyone know how long the contract is for?
I read that the contract is 1 year.
What does 200 minutes to landline mean?
I contacted them and it's actually unlimited calling to any domestic number.
so, I was going to do this, but after I went thru everything and was checking the monthly payment, it's only about $5 cheaper than what I already pay with sprint service. not sure that it's worth the big brother stuff and the constant text msg surveys.
Since you have Sprint service already I assume that you don't need a phone. It might be worth checking out the Facebook deal. $30 a month unlimited everything, no taxes/fees.
I am currently paying $70 for my AT & T plan so I signed up and paid the 30 bucks- 40 a month is a savings for me- I am excited about the whole deal- I am not paranoid- My husband is an IT Director- Its gonna be fine- I will keep yall up to date!
Hehe, they'd hate to have me… We DVR everything and skip the ads. :p
Is this on top of the phone plan I already have, or does it change it to this? I have been with AT&T for years and just extended our contract again.
This would be a separate account.
We (RawData) could port your number to your number to your RawData phone but, you would need to close your account with your existing provider.
I signed up last week and can't get a hold of anyone from rawdata. I tried the
number & email on your site. Yet the money came right out of my account. So no phone and can't get a hold of anybody….. why is that? Do I need to cancel my bank card????
I am VERY dissapointed in this!!! I applied for this program and read over what it was about SEVERAL times. I thought that this would replace my current contract through my phone carrier. NOT THE CASE. Now I have a phone that I have to return that cost $5 to ship. Not to mention, they charged me $30 twice!!! This is rediculous Collin!
got my phone today- for some reason i did not get to keep my number- i did wait for my old phones service to deactivate before powering it up but still got a (801) number. Hoping I will be able to remedy it tomorrow- for right now im just excited to have a new FREE phone- i havnt had a new phone in years!
Amy –
I am not sure why he would have hung-up, it is perfectly fine to sign up online. I am looking into what might have happened and why it happened that way. Our support line is 888.241.9314, if we can answer any other questions please let us know.
To the point of your concern, this is not a scam. We are completely willing to talk through the details with you when you have time.
thought your number was 1855rawdata…… scam!!!!!
I got my phone last week and my number was recenlty ported. So far so good I am just getting adjusted to the sprint service and the actual cell phone (former blackberry user).
my husband and I agreed to this deal yesterday we gave them all our info and now we r missing $50 out of our bank account so i dont know if this is real or not has me thinking now
I found ad on the penny saver and called for info. they said it was $39.99 per month and that there would be an $45.00 activation fee and no contract.. Ad offered a free LG Optimus DROID phone, Also I would be able to keep my currant phone number. Unlimited talk ,text ,mail, data email, Pictur e and more. is the $45.00 activation fee is what they asked for to all those that placed your comments. Also, does anyone know if the LG phone needs to be programed?
I have not had a good experience with this company either. It took nearly 2 weeks to receive my phone (which I had to pay $199 for) and another 2-3 days for service to start. A few days after getting it, my son was playing with my phone and it locked up saying there were too many password attempts. I tried to correct this by following the directions and signing into my account and it doesn't work. I now have an unuseable phone! I went online looking for a solution and even went to a Sprint store and they were unable to fix it. I tried to call Raw Data and it went to a mailbox that says it's full! I also emailed them and no response as of yet. I am afraid this bargain is going to end up costing me a fortune. :(
so as all of you, I was skeptical, but did my research. Raw Data is a legitimate operation. I called both the number given above, 888.241.9314 and the 855-RAW DATA. Both were answered by courteous representatives who were more than able to answer all the ?'s i had. I also sent an e-mail, which was also answered in the way which I had requested, both in an e-mail and a phone call. The call came from an 801 area code which the rep explained was a direct line to him. So I have spoke to 3 different reps, all of which gave the same answers and did not seem to be scripted. (after many years in various call centers, one can tell) ALL my ?'s were answered to my liking. Questions in which the reps did not know the answer to, I was put on hold very shortly as the correct information was found. Although most information about their research program can be answered on their web pages, some after some digging (remember nothing is perfect) – My ?'s included …
– The 'contract' is for 1 year, what about after that year? you can continue w/ Raw Data and you lie remains w/ sprint at the subsidized rates ($39.99 3G / $49.99 4G – remember 4G is a new improved cell service and just like HD programing you will most always pay a premium for it) or you can choose to separate or go with Sprint at whatever rate plan you agree upon.
– Can I upgrade the phone in the middle of the 1 year? Yes, so long as it is an Android OS phone
-Am I being listened to/ how does the research work? Simple way to explain is that the phone runs an application in the background which picks up broadcast 'tags' or identifying sounds, much like the RDS signal to a FM radio which provides the station info, artist and song info. In MY OWN OPINION this is a small price to pay for the compensation provided.
I also had ?'s about payment methods ect, again all of which were answered to my satisfaction.
After doing my homework and have a list of ?'s to give the reps I spoke with, I am satisfied that Raw Data is legitimate, though I do get the impression that this is a small and growing operation, experiencing some 'to be expected' growing pains. I offered my opinions on how thing are set up all of which I felt were taken in to their consideration.(especially hours to reach them by phone- up to 6pm mountain time)
I would recommend to do you own research and ask your own questions before jumping to conclusions about scams or not. A quick search for the phones and services they offer will quickly tell you that you will not be able to get a higher end Android phone w/ unlimited service for anywhere near the prices that Raw Data offers. A simple GOOGLE SHOPPING search for the Samsung Nexus S shows a low price for a NEW unit to be around $275, $49 through RD w/ the 1 yr service agreement.
@CHAD, You should really look into going through a service that knows about your phone company. Your call support can NEVER get a hold of technical support either cause they won't call back or they simply just do not email back. I find that service to be absolutely ridiculous. You should really watch yourself there Chad because you're looking at a lot of people that are NOT happy with your company. I'm sorry for you.
Thanks for this post, Collin! I called Raw Data with my concerns and questions. They were very helpful and friendly, and knowledgable. I ordered my LG Optimus, ported my old Metro PCS number over, and have been enjoying my Smartphone and Sprint service for 3 months now with no problems. Now my husband wants one! Thanks again!
okay so i called "raw data" to find out how i can just go into the store and get the phone and pay for the plan NO ONE ANSWERS it just rings rings rings !!!! do i smell a scam !!! hahahahahaha
My sister signed up for this plan after this add was posted. Thus far she has been happy. She said the 2 cons are 1-The phone/plan is very slow on data. She thought it was a combination of both the phone and the service. 2- because it is always tracking and listening for the tv/radio cues the battery goes quickly. She feels she has to charge her phone almost twice a day.
Need information for billing in my name please…and howw I can get two more androidds for my kids on one plan..
Yu can realli get a free phonee
I love this program. Ive never had an hassle at all. Thanks Raw Data.
This company is not what they claim to be. I've been a part of them for the past year or so. They cut off their agreement with Sprint abruptly, forcing everyone who was on that to switch to Verizon with less than 2 weeks notice. Now, they are being forced to shut down the Verizon side as well. I called into the Verizon help service to get an explanation – as Raw Data has shut down their phone lines and are no longer responding to the help emails. I discovered that they are more than 60 days delinquent in paying for the phones, and they will now be going to collections. The page where they "explain" is located in a hidden area of their website: http://www.therawdata.com/phoneshutoff though there is no safe bet that they won't change the URL again to hide their wrongdoing. I would not trust them again with my money, criminals like this don't deserve your business.
I used RawData for about a year, then, as noted, they cut ties with Sprint. I did not feel like paying $125 for a deposit for Verizon and I thought that was an idiotic thing to do since I was already with them, so I didn't continue with them. I'm not even sure the listening software ever worked on my phone and I know the last update for it didn't work well before they switched providers. Anyway, I am not sure I can ever use that Sprint Nexus S again and get 4G, since my attempt at transferring *liability* would have socked me with a "huge bill" as indicated by the service rep and I'm not paying that.

Modern microscopy technology has allowed two scorpion biologists, Carsten Kamenz of the Humboldt University in Berlin and Lorenzo Prendini of the American Museum of Natural History, to study and document what is nearly invisible. Looking at tiny morphological features like the sculpting of the hair-like outgrowths on lamellaestructures that fold like the leaves of a book and give the scorpion respiratory system its name, the book lungKamenz and Prendini found a wealth of new variation that gives insight into the evolutionary relationships among scorpions. Their research, recently published in the Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History, presents their raw data as an illustrated atlas of the book lungs of all major lineages of scorpions.
"The richness of morphology is a vast and still largely unexplored source of data for understanding the evolutionary relationships among organisms," says Prendini, Associate Curator in the Division of Invertebrate Zoology at the Museum. "We have not learned all we can because the more we look at morphology, the more we find."
Kamenz and Prendini revisited book lung morphology for the first time since 1926 to assess whether these organs illuminate the scorpion tree of life. Book lungs allow some arachnids, including all scorpions, most spiders, and whip scorpions, to breathe air. Scorpions were traditionally placed at the base of the phylogenetic tree, as a sister group to all other arachnids, but molecular data has complicated this picture by suggesting that scorpions move higher on the tree, closer to sun spiders and daddy long legs. Consequently, the question of whether the book lung evolved once, at the base of the arachnid phylogenetic tree, or more than once, as arachnids adapted to life out of water, is unresolved.
This study is the most complete review of scorpion breathing apparatus ever: 200 specimens from 100 genera in 18 scorpion families were examined. This sample re

A man from Illinois called a national talk radio show the other day and said he was fed up with his home state. He's contemplating a move to either Oklahoma or Texas because he likes our politics.
Of course he'll need a job. The low unemployment rate here suggests that he might find one in short order. Now if only some employers could find workers in short order!
Consider Enid. Continental Resources left there in recent months, not because founder Harold Hamm was fed up with his hometown but because Oklahoma City offered a better environment for growing his energy business. Despite Continental's relocation, employers in Enid and elsewhere in northwestern Oklahoma are having difficulty filling jobs. Oil and gas activity is a major reason.
The Oklahoma Department of Corrections has trouble keeping correctional officers in the region. Oil field jobs can pay as much as twice what the state pays. Yet the agency is working with another Oklahoma City energy firm to place ex-inmates in oil patch jobs because the energy sector itself needs more workers.
Several trend lines are crossing in this story, moving geographically, vocationally and fiscally. Let's connect the dots on the bar graphs:
An agent for the Oklahoma Manufacturing Alliance told The Oklahoman's Brianna Bailey that finding workers is a constant struggle for small companies in western Oklahoma. Why? Low unemployment in general and higher-paying energy sector jobs in particular. A small aircraft repair firm in Enid may buy or build an apartment building for workers as an incentive for them to relocate. It may cross state lines to lure laid-off aircraft workers in Kansas. An oil field service firm in Woodward opened a yard on the west side of the Oklahoma City metro area in hopes of getting workers not available in Woodward.
The Department of Corrections perpetually struggles to hire and keep prison guards. The number of officers is routinely less than 65 percent of what the agency is authorized. A rebound in oil and gas activity in recent years hasn't helped. Department Director Justin Jones wants to increase the wage rate for new officers from $11.83 an hour to $14. The proposed rate would still be much lower than what oil field jobs pay.
