This Week In Trailers XXVIII
This is my 100th post! I feel like it should be a little better, but it's not exactly like I get to pick which movie trailers are released each week, so we will settle with what we have. Little something for everyone here, intrigue, action, teen drama, and zombie Nazis! So first up we have a full trailer for the insanely anticipated film Twilight, which I know little to nothing about, followed by the full trailer for Transporter 3 which I know all I need to know about (which isn't much). Next there is the aforementioned zombie flick Dead Snow, and finally the trailer for Defiance which I had not heard about before.
I have a feeling that if I say something bad about this movie I'm going to end up with a lot of angry teenage girls on my hands. It's almost a given that I'll watch this movie just because of the huge hype surrounding it, but if the trailer is any indication, the story is pretty bad and a lot of the acting doesn't look much better. I don't expect it to be a very enjoyable expirience.
The Transporter 3
The more trailers I see for this movie, the more the story gets worse and worse. It's as if they aren't even trying anymore, which is not surprising since people don't really see these movies for the story. I just hope that this is closer to the first instead of the second film. The action looks pretty awesome so at least it's a safe bet that the movie will be watchable.
Dead Snow
The only reason I'm featuring this trailer is because it is about Zombie Nazis terrorising some cabin in Norway. The plot just sounds ridiculous and it looks just about the same in the trailer. I guess it could be an interesting film for those people who love "stranded" horror films and zombies, but apart from the interesting premise, I doubt I will see this film.
There is a great cast in this movie, and the plot sounds interesting – slightly different from your average WWII film. The trailer has peaked my interest, even though the accents of the three leads are slightly distracting. There looks to be some decent action, as well as a fair amount of good intrigue so there is a pretty good chance that I will watch this.

Founded in 1981, First Presbyterian Christian School has provided a quality early childhood education in the heart of Spokane for twenty-five years. The school initially opened under the guidance of Jeanne Walsh. In the early years, classes were offered for three and four year olds, three days a week and quickly progressed to fives and ultimately Kindergarten, with Sandy Mansfield. Mrs. Mansfield served as kindergarten teacher for 18 years, was named Teacher of the Year in 2001. She retired in 2004. In 1993, Phyllis Shaffer became the director. Mrs. Schaffer served First Presbyterian for fifteen years with twelve years as director. During that time the school continued to search out and provide the best early childhood teaching techniques, with an emphasis on "hands-on" activities that appealed to all learning styles. Phyllis discovered that this was her true passion and she especially enjoyed establishing a loving connection with the children and families at the school. That focus continues to be central to the First Presbyterian experience. Mrs. Schaffer retired in 2005 and Mary Davey became the director for the next few years.
In the fall of 2008, Tracy Blue assumed the role of principal of the school. Tracy grew up at First Presbyterian Church and participated with her daughters as they enjoyed wonderful years of preschool and kindergarten at FPCS. She was on the church staff as the Children's Ministry Director for five years when her children were young. After spending nine years as a classroom teacher in grades K-3 and four years as a staff developer in literacy and math with District 81, she decided to come home to First Presbyterian where she could blend her love of teaching children with her faith in Christ. Tracy loves working with such a wonderful staff and looks forward to continuing to be a part of the school as it grows to include primary grades in the coming years.

Tigers Woods' return to the PGA Tour starting with the Safeway Open at Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, California, next week "might be spectacular," according to European golfer Jesper Parnevik.
In an interview for the November issue of Golf Digest, Parnevik said that the 14-time major champion has been "hitting a lot of balls, and he's hitting it great. He's pounding it a mile and flushing everything,"
Parnevik, who spent some time watching Tiger hit balls at the range and played nine holes with him at the Medalist Golf Club in Florida, said, "On the range, at least, his trajectory and ball flight are like the Tiger we knew 15 years ago. Comebacks are never a sure thing, but something tells me his might be spectacular."
The 51-year-old Swedish golfer and Woods have patched things up since their falling out several years ago over Woods' treatment of his former wife Elin Nordegren. Parnevik introduced Nordegren to Woods when she served as an au pair for Parnevik's children.
Parnevik told GD that he felt betrayed by Tiger when he engaged in extra-marital affairs. "When the infidelity came to light, it felt like the worst betrayal ever," he said. "But over time, I forgave Tiger. He and Elin are friends, which is nice, and he's a good parent. His mistakes hurt him, too."
Woods, who dominated golf for well over a decade commanding 683 weeks as world No 1, (now ranked 767), has not teed-it-up since August 2015, when he competed at the Wyndham Championship and finished tied for 10th place. After that, Tiger stopped playing and underwent two back surgeries. In September 2015 he had surgery to remove a disc fragment that was pinching a nerve and a month later he had a second surgery to treat a different pinched nerve in his back. Woods endured a prior back surgery in 2014 and has had multiple surgeries on his left knee starting in 2008, the year that Woods last won a major tournament.
Tiger's former Stanford roommate and longtime friend Notah Begay said last month that he believes this will be Woods' last attempt to come back from his injuries.
"It will be a new chapter," said Begay, a former PGA pro who currently serves as an analyst for the Golf Channel. "Just like 1996 was the beginning, this is going to be the beginning of a new chapter for Tiger Woods, and probably his last. He understands that he's much closer to the end of his career than the beginning and that if he has another injury and has to sustain another rehabilitation period that he might not make it back."

"I love the flavor of buckwheat, but thought that sometimes it can be a bit strong. So I came up with this recipe when fiddling around one morning making pancakes. My family loves these pancakes! My brother-in-law says they don't need butter or pancake syrup they're so good. Please make sure to beat the egg whites up, it makes a real difference in the texture of the pancakes. Also, please make sure to use cake flour in this recipe. These end up being very soft in texture, light and fluffy. Try them, you'll like them, you'll see!"

CHARLES LAWRENCE An architect with a lifetime interest in boats, especially the classic offshore powerboats of the Golden Age from around 1955 to 1975, author Charles Lawrence has, in retirement, become an historian, illustrator, writer and publisher on the subject.
He has researched Fairey Marine and its boats, associated types and their rivals since 2002, and published monographs on Fairey Marine, Bruce Campbell, Sonny Levi's Trianas, the Port Hamble Pacemakers, the first Cowes-Torquay offshore powerboat race in 1961, and with Graham Stevens a reference book on the Daily Express sponsored years of the Cowes-Torquay races from 1961 to 1978, plus biographies of Chris Tremlett and C W Burnard. In addition Charles has drawn coloured profiles of around 150 boats, used to illustrate his books and individually printed as posters.
Charles catalogued the drawings of the late Alan V Burnard, designer of the Fairey powerboats, and distributes copies of the original Fairey Marine drawings on behalf of the Fairey Owners' Club and the Classic Boat Museum, Cowes.
He has also contributed to the Fairey News, Professional Boatbuilder, COPC News, Riva Magazine, River Hamble Handbook and the On Site Review. He is Archivist to the Fairey Owners' Club, and a member of the Classic Offshore Powerboat Club, the Classic Motor Boat Association, the Windermere Motor Boat Racing Club and the Association of Yachting Historians.
GRAHAM STEVENS Now a raceboat archivist in retirement, having taken and amassed photographs, raceboat reports, result sheets and other material since the early 1960s.
Graham's interest in raceboats began when serving an apprenticeship with Vosper Ltd, in the days of the Tramontanas and Flying Fish. He teamed up with Lorne Campbell, a fellow Vosper man, to build the Class 2 Highland Fling for Lady Arran, which broke several records at Windermere.
Shortly after this, Graham moved on to work in the Don Shead design office, joining several Vosper chaps working on his raceboats of the 1970s, as well as many large superyachts, including several that were gas turbine powered.
Powerboat Archive The powerboat archive was formulated to document all records of the modern raceboat era. It consists of many photograhs taken by the author, supplemented by data from around the world, and personal collections from well known powerboat enthusiasts, notably Ray Bulman.
Graham's photograph gallery, library of race results, printed articles and also films are freely available to all at www.powerboatarchive2.co.uk
GEORGE BUTLIN is a retired interior designer whose work comprises internationally acclaimed projects, including museums, art galleries, theatres and many five-star hotels throughout Europe and Africa.
He has a lifelong interest in the work of Thurston Laidlaw Shoosmith. His other passions include Alvis motor cars, Bedford Park, the "First Garden Suburb", where he lives, the life and work of the architect and designer C F A Voysey, and the history of coach-building, in particular H J Mulliner & Co, on which he has written several articles. He writes for a number of journals, and edits The Orchard, the journal of The C F A Voysey Society.
John McGowan is an artist/printmaker and former art teacher. In 1981 he came across the sketchbooks of T L Shoosmith in The Northampton Museum and Art Gallery. This led directly to his curation of Thurston Laidlaw Shoosmith – A Closer Look in 1983. More recently he has organized exhibitions at the Yarrow Gallery, Oundle School, including Jean Spencer, a retrospective. He has directed four films about artists and their work.
Now, retired from teaching, he has returned to his studio in Cambridgeshire, where he creates series of prints that reflect his interest in local buildings and landscapes which might have been familiar to Shoosmith. In his work he celebrates the rich diversity of architecture created by our forebears.
BEN CURTIS In real life, Ben, a recent Commodore of the Fairey Owners' Club lives with his (very patient) wife Lorna and son Felix on the Isle of Wight. Ben lived his first 25 years close to the shore of Southampton Water and then 20 years in Hamble, his school chum James' father owned Merlin a fabulous long skinny motorboat built in the 1930's in France, Merlin was moored on the Hamble River and as a result motorboats captivated Ben from the late 1970's. One sunny day, around 1980, leaving Cowes a short distance ahead was a Huntsman 31 aft cabin (Ben still wonders to this day which boat it was), a roar of engines and puff of sooty smoke, the Huntsman leapt onto the plane and shot off at great speed. A defining moment in Ben's life, the rest as they say is history, glue, varnish and paint.

U.S.'s Zero-Tolerance Approach To Terrorism Suspects Is Tested
New Emphasis on Pre-Emptive Arrests May Not Meet Tough Court Standards
WASHINGTON -- For the past year, Attorney General John Ashcroft has been promising to bust potential terrorists for "spitting on the sidewalk," in a reference to Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy's relentless war on organized crime in the early 1960s.
With a rash of arrests from coast to coast, officials proclaim the new zero-tolerance approach is bearing fruit. But as cases move from secret grand jury proceedings controlled by the Justice Department into contested court hearings before independent federal judges,...

Bestselling author Mary O'Rourke fronts 'Books are Good for You' campaign
for Gill Books.
Bestselling author Mary O'Rourke has joined forces with non-fiction publisher Gill Books in a bid to encourage the nation to read more. It's good for you!
Recent research shows that books can be not only a source of pleasure but good for you too:
Since her school teacher days, Mary O'Rourke has always encouraged people to read more and to read widely and often refers to the pleasure and comfort reading has brought throughout her life:
'I read widely from an early age, whether it was the back of a cereal packet, Charles Dickens or something that was for a reader well beyond my years! Since my husband Enda passed away I have found it to be a particularly comforting pastime. You are never alone when you can pick up a book and escape into a world of fascinating characters and it's proven to be good for you! We take vitamins, we try to eat healthily, we brush our teeth. What do we do actively every day to keep our brains in shape? Half an hour of reading every day is all you need.'
Mary will select one book every month for readers to enjoy and Gill Books is offering a year's supply of books to the most avid readers. See www.gillbooks.ie for information.
'The books will be a rattlebag of everything from Soundings to self-help, from cookbooks to history. We're creatures of habit and we often pick up the same types of books over and over again. This selection will move you out of your comfort zone and encourage you to read something you wouldn't ordinarily read, says Gill Books' deputy publisher Nicki Howard.
So if your New Year resolutions have fallen by the wayside, join Mary this March and commit to a new resolution of reading every day.
Here's how to get involved:
Step 1: Pledge to read every day
Step 2: Read with us! Mary O'Rourke will be choosing a new book every month. This March it's Soundings: Poems we did for our Leaving Cert. Log on to www.gillbooks.ie/booksaregoodforyou for updates and to be in with a chance to win a year's supply of books!
Step 3: Spread the word – join us on Facebook & Twitter via #BooksAreGoodForYou. Discuss the books we are reading this month, tweet your reviews and send us photos of your own book collections for random spot prizes!
Step 4: Feel the benefits: Watch your stresses fade away. Discover something new. Escape from it all. Amaze your friends with your expanding mind! Don't forget to let us know how you get on!
Media information: The Books are Good for you Campaign begins on Friday 1st March 2013 with Mary's first book choice Soundings: Poetry we did for our Leaving Cert.
Mary O'Rourke is available for interview about the campaign. For further information contact Teresa Daly, Communications Manager, 01-500-9521, 086-838-3559, email@example.com.

Ollin Studio, Mexico's Largest Post House, Adds Second BaselightMexico's Largest Post House Upgrades Existing Baselight and Northlight Systems to Support Growing Slate of Features, Commerci (January 07, 2010)
"Ollin Studio sets the standard for high quality post production for the Mexican and South American markets," said Craig Risebury, President of FilmLight, Inc., FilmLight's North American subsidiary. "These new additions will help them keep pace with the growth of the advertising and feature film markets and better service the increasing number of projects that involve digitally-acquired media."
Ollin Studio's new Baselight One, which will be used for HD and 2K colour grading, is linked to an existing network attached storage system, allowing colourists to share direct access to data files with the facility's visual effects artists and editors. It also includes FilmLight's GPU option for enhanced performance.
"This workflow allows our artists to work in an extremely collaborative way, while realizing significant cost savings," observes Ollin Studio Technical Director Miguel Villasana. "It doesn't matter where you are in our studio, you always have instant access to data. Soon, every workstation in our facility will have controlled access to the Baselight 'cloud.'"
New upgrades to Ollin Studio's Northlight scanner and Baselight FOUR will also result in faster processing of data files. Baselight FOUR upgrades include 10Gige connectivity. The company acquired Northlight and Baselight (along with FilmLight's Truelight colour management technology)in 2004 and, since then, has used them to perform colour grading and/or restoration work for more than a dozen feature films as well as grading for ad campaigns for such for such brands as Ford, Toyota, Sony, Corona and Apple's iPhone.
"Northlight is a workhorse whose cost benefits are off the charts," says Villasana. "The quality of the scans is superior to anything else in our market. Baselight has provided us with quality grading tools and a fast learning curve that has enabled our artists to quickly make the transition from linear to non-linear grading."
Overall, Ollin Studio has been extremely satisfied with Baselight and Northlight, and with the support it has received from FilmLight. "Baselight and Northlight have in a word, been flawless, really outstanding," Villasana concludes. "FilmLight's support personnel truly understand our needs and the needs of the industry. All of our plans for the future, and the new pipelines we plan to build for our customers are based on FilmLight products. They provide the tools and the easy integration we need to achieve our goals."

Minutes to this month's Financial Policy Committee meeting also showed that it will review "the range of tools" it has to control an overheating market.
The pledges were made in the FPC's meeting two weeks ago amid mounting concerns that the Government Help-to-Buy subsidised mortgage scheme would stoke a housing bubble. Since then, the FPC has been handed powers to recommend alterations to Help-to-Buy, which will start next week, every September.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4, David Cameron suggested the Bank could intervene earlier and more frequently. "We have given the Bank all the powers necessary to examine this scheme... They can make comments on debt levels in the economy, potential bubbles in our economy, whenever they want," he said.
Echoing words used by Governor Mark Carney, the FPC said "it would need to be vigilant to potential emerging vulnerabilities in the financial system".
"That meant, first, close monitoring of developments in the housing market and banks' underwriting standards. Second, it was important that the Committee should develop a deep analysis of the ways in which housing developments might affect financial stability."
It recognised that there were "a number of potential feedback loops between economic developments, housing and financial stability" and that housing had played an "important role" in several past UK credit cycles.
If it detects a bubble, the Bank has the power to make mortgages more expensive for banks to offer and to recommend they tighten affordability tests – by lowering loan-to-value or loan-top-income ratios, for example. However, the FPC added that it "should review the range of tools that could be used to mitigate risks to financial stability" from housing.
Should it need to use the tools, it pledged to used them " in a way that was proportionate to the risks and consistent with a graduated response".
The minutes also appeared to reveal that the Treasury had not asked the Bank to take on its new powers on Help-to-Buy a fortnight ago.
Under Help-to-Buy, the Government will offer banks an indemnity against losses on the first 20pc of the mortgage so long as the buyer puts up at least 5pc of the asking price. The idea is to help more first time buyers onto the property ladder.
The scheme is open for homes worth up to £600,000 for three years. The Treasury expects that about £12bn of taxpayer insurance will be provided, for a fee, on as much as £130bn of lending.

The reason being Alex did not waste time on schema subsystem since it would need to be revamped once we implemented subentries. Subentries for schema AAAs would store the schema info there rather than having one schema for the entire DIT mastered by a DSA. Basically an interceptor for schema management would use the subentry information to check for correct schema usage in different schema AAAs in the DIT. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Riding a wave of retro taste
Sally Parkin, the founder of the Original Surfboard Company, is back on dry land. Blue eyes intense and ablaze, salt water dripping from an all-in-one Twenties woollen navy bathing suit, Parkin clutches a "bellyboard" – a slimline wooden board on which enthusiasts lie prone to catch waves as they approach the shore. She's just spent an hour on her board, and couldn't be happier. There's just one thing.
"It's not bellyboarding," she says, with evangelical conviction. "It's surf riding. That's what it used to be called, and that's what it should still be called. And it's just as much fun as stand-up surfing."
Parkin has been surf riding at Porthcothan beach in Cornwall to prepare for tomorrow's World Bellyboarding Championships at Chapel Porth beach, near St Agnes. She is far from alone. The 12th World Championships, organised by the National Trust, will see more than 300 entrants compete for the chance to be crowned champion. They come from all over Britain, and the age range is arguably the most inclusive in sport – from four to 90.
John Isaac, a British surfing photographer, will be among them. He enters the event each year, and in 2012 won the Spirit of Bellyboarding award. "The Bellyboarding World Championships is a celebration of British eccentricity," he says. Isaac's eyes light up as he explains bellyboarding's appeal. "It's accessible to everyone – you don't have to be a surf dude to splash about in the sea on a bellyboard. You're closer to the wave than with conventional surfing. There's a no-frills feel and it's a lot of fun. Where else can you enter a sports event and get an award for wearing the best costume?"
Sartorial elegance is retro at Chapel Porth. Competitors sport swimsuits from yesteryear and chat aimiably about their choices, not to mention their provenance. At a recent event, Cannes-based American entrant Scott Bell cut a dash in a 1934 Jantzen all-in-one with a "modesty flap" – wetsuits are strictly prohibited. There are prizes for wacky swim caps, best patina, best varnish, the most stylish and the longest ride as well as a "Long Distance Award" – for the competitor who has travelled the furthest to enter the event. Past winners in this category have come from the British Virgin Islands, New York, South Africa and New Zealand.
The event was set up in honour of a Londoner. Two Cornish surfers – Chris Ryan, a Chapel Porth car park attendant, and Martin Ward, an RNLI lifeguard supervisor – held the first Championships in 2002 to commemorate the late Arthur Traveller, who had come down to the beach every year with his wooden board. Initially tongue in cheek, the event has gone from strength to strength, with the number of entrants going up year after year.
I was among them in 2011, on a day that was alternately rain-lashed and sunny. The sea conditions were far from ideal – the wind was onshore, making for lumpy and uninviting waves – but the spirit of the competitors was contagious. If stand-up surfing is sometimes bedevilled by a Too Cool for School attitude, there's not a bit of it among the bellyboarding fraternity. They're big on bonhomie, riding waves not to impress but from a simple love of the sea. And perhaps, as American advertising executive, surfer and entrant Matt McGregor-Mento told me, bellyboarding amounts to a humble oceanic revolution.
"Bellyboarding chimes with a rethinking of surf culture generally. We've reached a point in our surfing evolution where we recognise that we're not all pros, busting the lip and getting shacked. We're reassessing how to have fun in the water, what to ride, where and when. Pound for pound, you can have more fun on a bellyboard than any other kind of surfcraft."
Fun on bellyboards is thought to have started in the early 1900s when a form of the Hawaiian "Paipo" board (made of wood) was copied by British soldiers returning from the First World War and inspired by stories of surfing from South Africa, Australia and Hawaii. Its heyday was in the Fifties. Slimline wooden boards, about four feet long and with a steam-bent semicircular nose, were seen on many British beaches, their owners lying on them to ride the breaking white water of waves. The pursuit slipped in popularity with the advent of standup surfing in the Sixties, but the past few years have seen a renaissance. Parkin has been at its forefront.
"I grew up in Exeter but spent my childhood summers at Porthcothan Bay near Padstow," she says. "I remember learning to swim and surf at the age of five. I started off riding smaller versions of the old wooden bellyboards, which in the Sixties were all that was available. I loved riding waves on those boards. It was so much fun, and so sociable as well. The whole family would catch a wave at the same time and see who could ride it farthest up the beach. We were in the sea every day, come rain or shine."
In June 2008, Parkin set up the Original Surfboard Company, which makes restyled versions of the wooden boards that she remembers from her childhood. Her company has been going great guns, shipping boards to customers around the world, with higher spec designs available thanks to a collaboration with internationally renowned Australia-based surfboard shaper Tom Wegener. Competitors in the British market include Otter Surfboards, Paipo Glide and the Traditional Surfing Company.
All are highly respected, which is the most apt description of one woman who didn't let her wooden bellyboard moulder in the garage – Gwynedd Haslock, who, at 70, is reputedly Britain's oldest female surfer.
"It's lovely to see people enjoying the sea, whatever they're doing and whatever craft they're using," says Haslock, who lives near Truro. Haslock – the British, English and Cornish women's surfing champion on many occasions between 1967 and 1990 – goes bellyboarding instead of surfing when it is high tide and busy at the Newquay breaks she has surfed for 50 years. She recently featured in a Land Rover ad, and eloquently sums up the allure of surfing – whether you do it on a bellyboard or a more conventional board:
"There are wonderful moments in the sea as you're waiting for waves: listening to the birds and watching them in flight and seeing them dive for fish; seeing fish skim along the top of the water in the gleaming sun; first thing in the morning, seeing the moon still there and the sun breaking through the red sky; seeing dolphins. At sunset, there's a kind of peace as the sun sets and the waves continue to push gently through. I also like the black mood of the clouds when it's raining; the way they're replaced by the sun and then small rainbows can be seen through the waves."
The 12th World Bellyboarding Championships is at Chapel Porth beach in Cornwall on Sunday September 7. See bellyboarding.co.uk for more details. Alex Wade is the author of Surf Nation and Amazing Surfing Stories

This link goes to the new site now and my watchlist is gone. Does anyone know where it is or if it's coming back?
The new system is terrible it takes forever for anything to load and you have to go through the ridiculous load times at least 2 or 3 times before getting to the show if you ever get there at all. Also shows that were once available with my service are no longer available for instance if I want to watch the on demand Dr. Who I now have to pay extra. I do not know how much no price was given just a number to call to upgrade my service.
It is a stupid interface made by the same idoiots who cannot even get the time correct in their listings in the old interface which is also a problem in this new one.
Why does watching TV Show on a PC SXXX now? Where did the old fromate go? Why can I not see what Show Played last night?
The new site is terrible. It takes multiple long waits and many fialures due to script errors and scripts that are too long, before you can get to anything and mostly you can not get in at all.
They are also now charging for things that came with my package before. For instance if I want to watch the on demand Dr. Who episodes I now have to upgrade my service. WHY WOULD I PAY MORE WHEN THEY KEEP DOING THINGS TO DRIVE ME AWAY FROM THEIR SERVICE.
I am very close to changing to AT&T.
What happened to the personal filters for the Live TV listings in this new format that was just imposed today, Favorites, HD only, Sports, etc?? Did they really do away with this? So now we have to scroll through everything?? Am I missing where these settings can be reset? I sure can't find them anywhere... is this supposed to be an IMPROVEMENT?
They own Hulu and they are putting it out of business with this same kind of nonsense. They ruined the Hulu interface, took away the Queue, and they are doing the same exact thing with this interface. They do not care. They will make sure there is nothing but glowing press reviews of their new design. And will not listen until Hulu is out of business and no one is willing to use thier Comcast streaming service. I suggest changing to another cable company.
The new site is GARBRGE!!!!! Bring back the easy to use and see TV guide. Also my mobil apps no longer work. What are you doing?????

did you hit guide button two times for menu of display option? To set (or reset) default guide view hit the xFinity button >> gear(settings) >> preferences >> general >> "default guide view" and select your default. I believe that this is a per box setting.

It is highly unlikely it will come back. They did the same thing with Hulu and got the same reaction. The only thing they did was make sure all the news reports about the change gave them a glowing report for a wonderful new interface. Not one news outlet reported about the millions of complaints from people whose Queues were deleted. Hulu will soon be dead as a result and they are too stupid to see what they are doing. They will not stop until they have ruined Hulu and Comcast itself starts to suffer financially. All we can do is to do everything we can to speed that along.
Whose bright idea was this new TV Guide format?? Where's the 'Now' Button...where's the Favorites selections...where's the four hour timeline? Where is the ability to alter settings of values like line height? I don't want to scroll endlessly to try and locate the channels of interest. Favorites eliminated this. Was this unusable format run past any focus groups? If it was it certainly didn't include any real time users. This new "improved" format is absolutely revolting & renders the guide virtually unusable.
Why did you decide to fix what wasn't broken?! This amounts to another nail in the Let's Leave Xfinity coffin.
This new format is horrendous, no Favorites, No Settings to adjust viewing parameters, No 4 hour timeline No NOW time adjustment...in fact, nothing of what made the TV Guide usable, user friendly, and convenient to use. AND, there is NO OPTION to use the original & functional guide. This really leaves me with a very bad feeling about Xfinity's concern about users wishes.
I agree, this new format is not my cup of tea. I watch from either a laptop or desktop PC @ home. I have been watchlisting my favorite TV series for YEARS, and have accumulated dozens of them...only now to not be able to access the watchlist via ANY means. All the links you can find online for the watchlist are redirected to the new Xfinity TV site.
Here is a hint Comcast...DON'T "fix" what ain't broke. If it NEEDED to be upgraded, at the very LEAST provide us with the same minimum functionality we had before. I swear, I have yet to find a company that puts the cart before the horse more than Comcast. Second hint...you aren't the only game in town, even my little town. Your rates are high, service poor, and what used to be great (fastest/bestest/boastest) about you is no longer accurate. I can get just as good for same or less $$$ from local Internet and Phone providers. And with so many ways to access premium TV as well as local these days, it may hust be time to pull the plug.
Well they have pretty much just guaranteed TVGuide.COM will be my WebBased TVGuide from here on out! You removed my ability to filter out channels with the Favorites option. HATE IT!. You CHanged the text from black on white to white on black. HATE IT!. The guide now takes more than 60 seconds to load! HATE IT!
I just encountered the new Xfinity portal when I tried to access my Comcast watchlist tonight while on business travel - after an hour e on my mobile phone, then wasted spent another hour of my time, I'm still no closer to finding my Watchlist. He instructed me how to set up an account on the new portal from my laptop (which did work, though at a snail's pace), and then tried to guide me through the steps to find my old watchlist (he said it should be possible to revert back to the old website format from the new portal), but the service reprentative finally gave up, since he could not even figure out how to navigate through the portal himself.
If the Xfinity service representatives can't understand their own product, how does Xfinity expect us mere mortal customers to use it?
Yes, Brilliant move on your part telling them about it aye? smh
No more on demand content. Most of it has been completely removed from the online on demand section. The listings are still there it takes approximately 10 minutes of flash garbage to get to each one. When you try to play anything it does not work. I found one show available but comcast wants to charge extra to see it. This show was previously available with my current package.
why can't the channel on the TV box be changed from the web site like before when viewing the channel guide listing
Bring back the old version now--I do not like being forced to make a choice I didn't want to make or I don't get the service at all, and that is WHAT I PAY FOR, isnt it. the overall change is something someone fully loaded (Idon't mean with human sh) and does not give a any regards about costomer convenience or service. Well if it stays this way HELLO AT&T, Good by comcast. faded white on black is not seeable by us with sight disabilities and I for one am going to look into bring suit under disabilities acts. even though i was forced to say yes or loose what i pay for all together and I would love to see a class action suit to strighten bumb people running comcast and others out of their I don't care about costomer convenience or service. . Note: copy retained.
Because they don't want you to do that anymore. The End.

OP says they have an old Motorola DVR. I believe the Cloud DVR is only for users having the new X1 DVR. That is probably why many users are complaining that they cannot see their recordings at all. The old DVR Manager website worked for both legacy (old) DVRs and the new X1 DVRs. The new site only works for X1 DVRs, and only if the user has activated the Cloud DVR feature.
Looks like Comcast has royally hosed (not the word I wanted to use) any user having a legacy DVR by removing any online DVR management options.
Thanks HowAboutThisOne, I guess that's my problem... I do NOT have the X1 system,nor do I want it. I've used my computer to view and add or delete programs to my DVR- , rather than go into the living room and physically make changes.
You are totally correct in your second paragraph.
ciao, bj
I think the site looks very nice. It's very modern. However, the point of an upgrade is to improve functionality. This site does not accomplish that. Where did my watch list go? Having a way to organize favorite shows and get reminders when a new recently aired show is added to the service is what made the site usable in the first place.
I can't even log into the new website Tv on firefox.

So that just proves my theory why you can not see your DVR recordings on the "new and improved" website. All users with legacy DVRs can no longer manage their DVR recordings and schedules on-line. I wonder how many users like you there are?
I am one of those non X1 DVR users. And this new version is totally useless!!

I have the X1 DVR, we have it no better! No DVR access/controlls like before. Clunky TV Listings interface and you can no longer control the X1 box from your computer using a web browser like before.
Comcast doesn't want you to do that anymore. So you can't. The End.
I know this has been covered a lot, but bring back the watchlist feature. This new websites licks and makes the entire point of your service usless. I can;t wait to just get fiber and be done with these assclowns.
Dear Comcast -- I do not watch TV on my computer, I watch TV on my TV. I do not watch TV from a smart phone or tablet, nor do I want to. Things were much, much better with the old page. Bring it back.
The "new" TV Guide is an unmitigated disaster.
No "My Favorites".
No "My Channels".
No sorting options.
No button to record a program (At least not that I have found)
And those are some of the complaints.
I DO NOT want to wade through 500 channels I never watch to find the listings I want to see.
I DO want the ability to tell my cable box to record a program (from a remote computer) when I can't make it home in time to watch it.
I do NOT want to install whiz-bang apps on my phone just to interface with my cable company. And I shouldn't need to.
Perhaps Comcast has its mind set on becoming the next big Web portal such as AOL was or Yahoo is now and MSN wants to be. Forget about it. You are a cable company, concentrate on delivering good TV and Internet service and bring back the former, and very useful TV Guide page. This new Guide is garbage.

I can't either, Pharrell, I'm on one continuous loop of sign in pages. What I had seen prior to today's fiasco, was nightmarish to say the least.
I'll just have to continue on using http://www.zap2it.com , and making note of shows I want to watch.
Comcast sure doesn't make it joyful for it's customers, just lucrative for the employees that are pulling the salaries for producing this garbage in the name of moving forward.
ciao, bj
I havn't found a way yet myself. So far this mew Guide appears to be an utter disaster and compltely unusable. Junk!
Wait until you discover all the other ways the new TV Guide totally suxxors. It is a total FAIL!
I agree, THIS IS DREADFUL. I'd use a worse word if the forum would accept it.
Not only did they take away my favorites from the web portal, it's DIRT SLOW to load compared to the old one.
I can get see my favorites that were set before on the cell phone app, but I have low vision and it's too small to use regularly.
WHY can't I have my favorites in the web portal? You know what they are, they show up on the app!
So this is just meanness.
Thanks for the recommendations for other web portals, I'll need them!
There is no answer. It appears the Ivory Tower geniuses were talked into buying this monstosity of a TV Guide and put it online without beta-testing it with real-world human beings. It is a total FAIL!
Mine is missing too. Is the watchlist gone forever? It was the most useful feature of the entire site.

Can we give Ashish at least some basic english training? And tell them what is going on, because they have/had no clue at all.
This page is still up and suggest some options are still there, not sure if they are still working on implementing the non functional links.
I don't I'm one of those legacy people. So looks like I'm hosed. I'm never giving Comcast my phoneline. I live in earthquake country and having a legacy AT&T landline is a must in emergencies. Comcast several months ago sent a notice you had to test your boxes to ensure they would work with the new system. Both boxes passed that test but clearly someone high-up said forget them. Well for sure writing our local consumer reporters and the attorney general to point out their latest anti-consumer moves.
Thanks for the tip Nellie. I like Zap2it.com better already. I had never seen the site before but it's sure better than Comcast's "new and improved" TV guide.
Here is a suggestion to any Comcast rep that might read this thread. Please add back the ability to filter by 1) category, i.e. Drama, Comedy, Sci-Fy, etc. and 2) by Channel, CBS, PBS, History, etc.
Having one huge long list is a nightmare.
Numerous people have suggested using Zap2it or TV guide as a guide instead of the unusable new Xfinity guide. But I watch virtually nothing on live TV. I like to record everything on my DVR and watch it when it is convenient, and I have been using the old guide to program my DVR. Now it is MUCH more difficult to do that. I have to scroll through almost 1000 channels, most of which I don't even get, since you can't filter for favorite channels. I have to click on each listing to see if it is new or a rerun. I am paying a lot of money for Comcast, and now I am unable to use it like I did before. I have been unhappy with Comcast before on numerous issues, but they have a monopoly on cable service where I am. But the arrogance of this latest move is completly beyond the pale. They don't care about the service they give their customers at all.
Alot of issues with xfinity tv guide and listing. Does cumcast even have a responds page that they even doing anything to resolved any issues.
This is absolutely horrible. I can't tap on the channel to tune to it, it brings it up on the computer....I DO NOT, repeat DO NOT watch TV on my laptop. I can't tap to record a program. I can't read the guide because of the white on black. Who the h....thinks this stuff up? Comcast has absolutely no understanding of the average person. They tell me it is better and I am supposed to believe and say, oh, yes, isn't this great! I probably am going to go back to satelite. I am sure the techies think this is great, At least give me a choice of what I want.
Does Comcast expect us to know what season and episode we have watched last. The new layout does not show the last air date which requires you to open the episodes. If you have already watched the show you back out to the top of the tv listing of shows.. Scroll all the way to where you were... Really! Terrible design. Put the last air date on the page with each show. Not really that hard...
Where's my easy-to-use TV web site? The new one is hard to use. I don't like it. My mouse moves slow. I have to click agree to user terms EVERY TIME. I have to enter device name EVERY TIME. My firewall turns off when I use the new web site. Comcast, what have you done to us?! You're killing us. Mr. Bill says "Oh Nooooooooooooo!".
every day i watch the news while i'm at work. i don't watch television on my actual tv set, but i pay for comcast internet and television and utilize the online tv service that's provided.
prior to a few days ago when this new website launched, the service was totally fine. there were hiccups and it frequently didn't work, but refreshing the page or trying again in a few minutes ultimately fixed the problem.
the new website that launched yesterday is not intuitive, flash keeps crashing, the video (when it does play) hangs for minutes on end and makes watching anything completely pointless. i pay a good amount of money each month to utilize this service and have it be a part of my daily routine. i don't have a television and i just watch tv on my computer, so as of now i'm unable to access the service i'm paying for. comcast is not holding up their end of the bargain.
i've been a comcast customer for 15 years. i'm not "comcast's biggest fan" but i'm also not someone who rips on comcast for no reason whatsoever. i know that with the launch of a new interface there are going to be problems, and fixes will be necessary. but on the launch of this new interface, i'm completely unable to use the service, and this is a somewhat regular and predictable phenomenon unique to comcast. most product launches have hiccups but at least the service (however flawed it might be) still works to some degree. that's not the case when comcast institutes a change; things come to a crashing halt and you never know when things are actually going to be fixed.
i look forward to these problems getting resolved so that i can use the service i'm paying a considerable amount for each month, and i sincerely wish that there was better communication on the part of comcast to keep it's customers informed about problems with it's service. having things break and not offering any kind of explanation or timetable for restoration of services leaves a bad taste in your customer's mouth. alternatively, being open, truthful, and timely in communicating issues with services like this would go a long way to curry favor from the people who have been loyal to your company for decades.

The firm has produced a number of products aimed and helping professional and hobbyist musicians alike utilise mobile technology, and the new iRig Pro I/O is the latest piece of portable equipment to continue that mission.
With the likes of Apple's iPhone's now running programs like Garageband, many musicians want to be able to use their devices for practice, recording ideas and even live performances. The iRig Pro I/O is a lightweight and simple-to-use piece of kit to help them achieve this.
Simply plugging your guitar lead into one end and plugging the other end onto your iPhone or iPad enables you to bash your idea out straight into Garageband, IK's AmpliTube or any other compatible DAW. It's really as simple at that.

And it's not just guitarists that will benefit from the iRig Pro I/O, the audio input enables you to connect guitars, bass, microphones and any monophonic instrument, while the MIDI input means you can connect up MIDI keyboards, synths, controllers etc. Pretty much anything with a cable with work provided you've got the right one. The device itself comes with a USB cable, a lightning cable (for Apple products), and two 1/8" jack to MIDI cables, giving you plenty of options.
I connected up a MIDI keyboard and an electric guitar to the iRig Pro I/O and with both instruments I was recording tracks within minutes. Its simplicity means anyone, professional or complete amateur, can start creating music almost instantly.
The device's LED lights help to monitor signal levels and give you a quick indication as to whether everything is connected up and working. A simple wheel on the front lets you adjust the gain, and a headphone port and volume buttons on the side gives you more control over what comes through your cans, mixer or speakers.
If you want a simple but extremely effective way to record onto your iPhone or iPad, IK Multimedia's iRig Pro I/O is an incredibly useful gadget.
With such a simple device, you'd be forgiven for expecting the audio quality to be so-so, but the iRig Pro I/O excels that this too, with a truly professional audio interface, giving players the ability to record 24-bit audio at sample rates of up to 96kHz.
As well as being very compact, the audio/MIDI interface also comes with batteries, meaning you really can pull it out of your pocket, plug your guitar in one end, iPhone in the other end, stick your headphones on and record away to your heart's content (or until the batteries run out).
For those looking to sit down for longer recording sessions, you can plug the device into mains, but you'll need to buy a PSU 3A separately.
As well as giving you a super quick way of recording straight onto your iPhone or iPad, the iRig Pro I/O works with Mac and PC, so there's room for it in your home studio too. And it's not just recording that this device makes a whole lot easier, practicing guitar becomes a much lighter task too.
Those who want to jam out on their electric guitar but either don't have an amp, or don't want to be weighed down by one, can set up the instrument with the iRig and their iPhone, stick their headphones on and jam away in silence, whether they're in the comfort of their own home, on the train, or sitting in the park.
What's more, the iRig Pro I/O comes with a decent amount of IK software, including full versions of its award-winning AmpliTube 4, AmpliTube for iPhone and iPad, SampleTank 3 SE and T-ReackS Deluxe with Mic Room, so you'll have plenty to play around with.
You can find out more about AmpliTube 4 in our review of the software here.
If you want a simple but extremely effective way to record onto your iPhone or iPad, IK Multimedia's iRig Pro I/O is an incredibly useful gadget that makes the whole process easy as pie.
The iRig Pro I/O is available from IK Multimedia's online store and from IK authorised dealers worldwide for an SRP of €149.99.

Part of the 23 Ways to Be Dead series by Arti
Prologue Edit
At 18 years old I thought this new Hunger Games thing wouldn't hurt me. I'd be in this Reaping and then out forever. I was an only child and I planned never to marry.
I'm not one of the crazy Believer people who prance around the square squaking about Fate and Gods until the Peacekeepers come and beat them. I work hard to earn money and train hard to make myself stronger. I have a pretty good life.
My Dad owns one of the biggest water towers in town, so everyone is head over heels to pay him so they can store the water they mine in it. So we were better off than most. And with a small family? Even better.
So when they called my name at the Reaping, my reaction was completely normal. Who'd have thought it? I just stood there and laughed.
Eventually I got it wasn't a joke and took my place. The girl I was going in with I didn't know very well, I didn't care.
I looked out over my District and at the TV screens surronding the square and definately at the vulture like cameras perched around me.
And I laughed some more.
Chapter 1 Edit
My stylist and mentor, who so rarely ever agreeed on anything had told me the exact same thing.
'Don't get yourself killed!"
I snickered. What useless advice! Words. A flap of the lips, a breath, a gust of the wind, and they are gone.
I stood on my plate. I was big enough to be scary and menacing to the others and I knew I had sponsers. People were betting on me winning. I was the biggest in this dump. I didn't bother to look around the arena. My eyes were on the huge golden horn thing. I was going to get there and get the best stuff before anyone else! Then I could just sit somewhere, wait for the others to kill themselves off or die out and then go after the others. Then I'd be back to home.
Not like anyone would care of course. Which would be why I'd be living in the Victor's Village all alone without my parents. It'd be great.
The others looked like they were counting down, waiting for the gong so they could run the heck away. Not me. I was planning to go in the opposite direction.
You'll be a tough kid, My father had always told me. When you grow up you'll have everything you want. Money and jewels and girls...
Of course then I had landed here. But no big thing, I'd win the Games then go home. This was just merely a vacation.
The other Tributes were mouthing now. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

It's always best to end the year on a high note, and we can do just that as we take stock of our real estate market performance in 2016.
There was notable growth in BHHS Fox & Roach's market area this year. The number of pended sales YTD October grew 9.5% over the same period of 2015. However, after hitting a peak in May, the percent increase has declined each month. This tells us that the pent-up demand generated during the Great Recession is likely satisfied. What remains is traditionally "normal" demand that will positively affect the year ahead.
We expect steady yet moderate growth to continue in 2017, and are forecasting a yearly increase of 4% in the number of houses sold. We are also forecasting a modest increase in home prices.

If you're in the tank hauling or small flatbed load hotshot business, this might possibly be the best investment you could make in a trailer. At 40ft, it's longer than most goosenecks, but over half of that bed (26ft.) tilts for versatile use. THe batteries on the bed hydraulics charge with a true plug and play system allowing you to run an easy extension cord and easily connect to the charger without messing with battery terminals or risking shock or overcharging of the batteries. The dual Dexter 12,000 lb. axles allow you to carry heavier loads with sure-footed performance while the gooseneck connection ensures you don't have to have a big truck to pull it. A heavy duty pickup and a CDL for the driver just in case wil be what you need for years of versatle service from this trailer. The folks at Texas Made Trailers designed this to be our flagship medium-sized flatbed trailer and with its competitive price it makes a great addition to your service or hotshot fleet.

The Fast Start Art Marketing Primer Course by Owen Garrett of Marketing Tools For Artists could be the foundation course you need.
I came across this ten part video tutorial course through a Facebook advertisement and, at just shy of US$12.00, I figured it was worth a look. Particularly because it had a unique selling hook that I hadn't come across before... claiming that 90% of everything I'd heard about selling art was either outdated or just plain wrong. It also asked the question "What's the Number One Most Important Thing about Selling Art and Being an Artist?!"
As you go through the process of purchasing this course you'll be asked if you want to also purchase the much more comprehensive and expensive course, The Ultimate Guide to Profitable Art Shows, which you can, of course, get at a special price if you buy it as well. Since the special price was close to the US$200.00 mark, that's not an amount I'm prepared to spend on a whim. Plus I have no desire, ever, to do art shows - don't care how profitable and necessary Owen thinks they are.
However, should you want to know more about art shows, if the quality of information in the Fast Start Art Marketing Primer is anything to go by, I'd be relatively confident in saying you're probably going to get good information on Art Shows if you decide to make the additional purchase.
For this review my focus is on the Fast Start Artist Marketing Primer Course. To begin with, it definitely is what it says it is. You can breeze through the entire course in just over an hour. Along the way you'll get information from setting up your business, creating systems to streamline you business and workflow, where most artists go wrong selling their art, how to use (or not use) social media, selling online and more.
There's plenty here that I haven't heard covered in art marketing courses before and the whole thing comes across as a no nonsense, tell it like it is approach to teaching.
In terms of course materials, you get 10 videos, 10 audio files of just the narration from the videos and a PDF file transcript of all the audio.
Personally I felt the ten videos add nothing to the course. They are easily very watchable but you're basically watching the narration being written out on the screen - much like the promotional videos used to sell the course. There is nothing visual in them that enhances the narration other than to reinforce the spoken word. I will never watch these things again.
(As someone who makes animated explainer videos for a living, the course videos look like they're made with Easy Sketch Pro and are a great advertisement for how basic and uninteresting explainer videos can be. Much more effort has been put into the visuals for the videos used in the pre sale. The post sale tutorial videos almost look like an after thought).
The audio however is a different story. It's great that each of the 10 lessons are supplied as an MP3 file. Owen's has a great presentational style that is very easy and friendly to listen to. I would recommend downloading all the lessons onto your favorite MP3 player to listen to whenever you need a refresher or just as a way of going through the course again without being tied to your computer.
The PDF transcript is also handy to have but at 59 pages I'm probably never going to read through it all, ever. However I may refer to it if I was specifically looking for some information from the course.
Overall, I feel this course delivers good information that could be applied to any kind of product based business, not just selling art. It's a solid foundation to build from with quite a few practical ideas not covered in any other course I've purchased.
If you're already successfully selling art then this isn't for you but for anyone struggling to make sales or just getting started it's probably the best $12.00 you'll spend. To have all this information, organized and in one place, rather than having to discover and piece it altogether yourself over years of trial and error, is a really good thing.
Disclaimer: This is an honest review based on my experience of having bought the product. I am in no way an affiliate of the seller. All links are direct links to the course free of any affiliate id or affiliate tracking.

(PRWEB) October 03, 2015
Tracy Bush, a Christian, operator of an outreach ministry, community involvement activist, devoted writer and author, has completed his newest work "A Peace Offering for the Police and the People": a gripping and potent work that offers insight for change with a new bond of trust, brotherhood and much more.
Published by Bound to Heaven Publishing/Ministries, Tracy Bush's poignant tale was developed to settle any unrest between the police and the people, bridge any gaps and show how to render a new level of truth.
"It is time to extend a peaceful spirit to reside throughout the USA. This is one of the Lord's blessings that had to be called into existence by a member of the body of Christ to be followed by the masses of people to keep the peace that is being known by the world as changing times are here. It is time for the country to get in line with the peace movement on this level of thinking and reacting. This book is like a journey to help end a modern day problem, to help with the reformation of the justice system to help the relations between police and people.
If you really want to know of a solution to help with the problem between the police and the people, invest in a possible solution and you will be better off with what may be priceless knowledge that money can't buy that can help you become more aware. Then who has been chosen to speak for the Lord? Is it you or me or both? It can be an answer to the peace we may be in need of with the problems the police and people are having. It is said by some that it is. But what do you say? Well I guess you will have to read it to know because anyone can say anything but when you know what you know that is good for you and all around you, you want them to know also." says author Tracy Bush.
Readers who wish to experience this profound work can purchase "A Peace Offering for the Police and the People" at http://www.boundtoheaven.org or online at Amazon.

Even Better Together
By coming together, we identify new, relevant opportunities to learn, collaborate, and share.
AAIM Member Spotlight
How long have you been a member of AAIM?
I've been a member of AAIM since 2004 when I started as an Associate Program Director—at that time I was working part time at Stony Brook precepting medical students and residents in the clinic, and raising three very young boys at home. Two of my boys are now in college! Time sure flies.
Describe your typical day.
There is no such thing as a typical day. As residency program director and vice chair of education for the department of medicine each day is different, which is great for me since I get bored with routines. Life as a program director is never boring! I spend some days precepting as a general internist and working with medical students and residents and geriatric fellows in the clinic, some days I'm running from one meeting to the next with administrators and other program directors, and on other days I'm teaching and meeting with residents, offering career advice and mentoring. We always laugh at the phrase "other duties as expected"—you never know what skills you will develop out of necessity as a program director!
What is your favorite part of the job?
I think it's the mentoring and coaching. I am happiest when I'm helping residents sort through their career and life goals and helping match them with potential mentors who will guide them in their careers.
How has the AAIM membership been of value to you and your career?
I think for me it's the inspiring educators and leaders whom I have met who have become my role models. Being involved with the Alliance has helped me grow in my career. Early on I became involved with the public policy committee, now called the AAIM Health Policy Committee—the people on the committee are so informed and passionate about advocacy.
Since I've joined I haven't missed an AAIM meeting. I loved the new Skills Development Conference that I attended this past fall. I am working on large projects, and attended a session called "One Page Project Management." It was a wonderful workshop and I picked up a new skill that I put into action immediately upon my return home.
I'm absolutely going to the meeting in March…I get so much out of AAIM meetings and they always recharge the battery. I can't imagine missing a meeting. Plus it's the chief residents' meeting—it's always great to meet our next generation of educational leaders.
What's your favorite moment of your career so far?
I really enjoy the day-to-day informal meetings with my residents and chief residents. Some favorite times are reconvening with my chiefs and APDs on interview days after candidates have gone home—we chat about the amazing candidates we've met and how each one could contribute to the program—it's a special time to bond and plan for the future. Another favorite is when interns become senior residents, and we witness how they develop into senior residents and lead the new interns and medical students.
What was your childhood dream job?
My dad was a veterinarian and helping him out in his practice had a huge influence on me while I was growing up. I was going to be a veterinarian for cats and have an office on Fifth Avenue in New York City! It was that or a working as a marine biologist out of Woods Hole, MA.
How do you spend your free time?
Being with my family. We are very close. I met my husband, a pediatric endocrinologist, in medical school. He's my best friend and we have three wonderful boys—one in high school and two in college. My favorite time is being with them.
What's one thing people would be surprised to know about you?
I am trying to teach myself how to play the banjo. I've always loved the sound of blue grass music.
