26 Things to Do in Sayulita Mexico: The Complete Travel Guide
Make your Mexico vacation the best it can be with these top things to do in Sayulita Mexico and be sure not to miss a thing.
If you're planning to head to the Riviera Nayarit for your next vacation in Mexico, you'll not want to miss the gorgeous little town of Sayulita. Situated right by the beach, it's the perfect mix of beach, surf, sunsets, nature and boutique shopping. Sayulita, Jalisco, Mexico also has some of the best restaurants in the area.
Located just 40 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita is a world away from the beach-front mega-resorts and the Malecón tourist traps.
It's a lovely little town full of gorgeous little beaches and sandy coves, modern cafes and so many incredible boutiques, galleries, cafes and restaurants. It is the perfect place to spend a few days or even a few weeks or months.
In fact, if you discovered that Puerto Vallarta is not for you- which I recently did, make sure to head straight for Sayulita and neighboring San Pancho.
I spent 3 whole months living in Sayulita Mexico and the Riviera Nayarit, exploring the area and spending a lot of time in Sayulita. Keep reading to find out all the hidden gems in this curated guide.

Getting There
From the airport: You'll first need to fly to Puerto Vallarta International Airport. From the airport, it's about 40 minutes to Sayulita.
To get to Sayulita from the airport, the best option is Uber, so make sure you've activated roaming or bought a local SIM or eSim ahead of time. The taxi drivers like to charge an exorbitant amount so avoid them. We paid about 600 pesos ($30) to get from Puerto Vallarta airport to Sayulita.
Ubers aren't allowed into the airport so you'll have to meet your driver outside the airport. As you exit the terminal building, turn left and walk the length of the arrivals building. You'll see a pedestrian footbridge you'll need to walk over to meet your driver on the other side of the highway.
From Puerto Vallarta: From Puerto Vallarta, you can take an Uber straight to Sayulita or you can take a bus.
You can catch a bus to Sayulita from outside the Walmart/Sam's Club on the main highway going North. The bus will say Sayulita on the windshield.
Best Time to Visit Sayulita
The best time to visit Sayulita is during the winter season or dry season, November- March. At this time temperatures are at their coolest- a comfortable daily average high of 78°F/26°C and there are clearer days and little rain. This is also, however, the most expensive time to visit and it's the most crowded.
The summers on the Riviera Nayarit are extremely hot and rainy and hurricanes can pass through the area from July until October.
If you don't mind the heat, you're on a budget and want to see fewer people around, then the shoulder season months of October, November, March and April are also a good idea.
It's also a good idea to visit Sayulita during the week rather than at the weekend if you can. At the weekend, many locals might travel to Sayulita from Puerto Vallarta making it even more crowded than usual.
26 Fun Things to Do in Sayulita Mexico
So, what is there to do in Sayulita Mexico?
Sayulita may be small, but there are so many things to do in this charming little town. To make the most of your stay and the Sayulita activities on offer, you'll want to stay at least 2 full days but I highly recommend 4 days or even more to really make the most of it.
1. Spend Time on the Beach
One of the best Sayulita things to do is to make the most of the beaches. You are on the blissful Riviera Nayarit after all with the Pacific Ocean in front of you!
Sayulita has four main beaches nearby including the one in town (Playa Sayulita) which tends to be the busiest.
You'll find the best beaches in Sayulita slightly outside town, yet they are still perfectly walkable. Most beaches have restaurants/beach bars or beach clubs on them where you can grab a drink or something to eat as well as a lounger and an umbrella.
If you prefer to bring your own drinks and/or a picnic and just lay on a towel in the sand- there are plenty of opportunities for that too.
Due to the waves which are great for surfing but not so great for swimming, many of Sayulita's beaches aren't the best for swimming. Waves are high and currents are strong.
If you'd like to swim make sure to head to Los Muertos beach which has the gentlest waves and a cornered off area for swimming.
The best beaches are:
- Playa Escondida/Carricitos – The best beach to come for sunset. It has one restaurant but generally, this is quite an unspoilt, gorgeous beach. Definitely bring your own snacks/drinks for a sunset picnic.
- Los Muertos Beach near Punta Sayulita – A small, palm-fringed, cove beach with yellow sand and turquoise water. The best beach in Sayulita for swimming. There are two bars selling drinks and basic Mexican food.
- Playa Malpaso near San Pancho – For a wild, off the beaten path experience, Malpaso Beach is a trek up the north end of Sayulita Beach all the way to the end and over a headland. It's an adventure in itself that's rewarded by a pristine, wild beach with no infrastructure. There really is nothing here but pure nature. It can also be reached by taxi or from San Pancho.
2. Go Boutique Shopping
Sayulita is a great place to shop unique, boutique and local and you'll see all the gorgeous boutiques as you explore.
Most of the pieces you see are made locally and many of them are also from local Jalisco designers that combine local culture, history and traditions.
In Sayulita, you'll be able to find a wide range of boutique stores which include stores selling jewelry, clothing, art, home decor, swimwear and surf apparel. I highly encourage you to walk around and explore them all but here are some of my favourites:
- Evoke the spirit – A gorgeous, unique concept store selling clothing, unique jewelry pieces and home decor. Evoke the Spirit was created by New Yorker Brittney Borjeson, who calls Sayulita home for 10 years now. The pieces you see are designed but Brittney and made by local Huichol artisans. They beautifully combine Huichol traditions with modern designs and taste. You won't want to leave without buying something.
- Revolucion del Sueno- A colorful boutique selling unique prints, bags and other lovely decor/home items. It's definitely worth a peek.
- Artefakto – Beautiful pieces from different artistic communities around Mexico. Lots of art to check out here including homeware, bags, hammocks etc. It's a great way to support local communities all over the country.
- Manyana- A stunning home decor and clothing boutique with a minimalist style and Japanese aesthetic. Gorgeous ceramics and clothing pieces.
- En Plural Concept Store- Unique clothing designs from a local Guadalajaran designer. There's also one in San Pancho which is larger and also sells art prints.
- Zafiro- Gorgeous jewelry with heavy use of gemstones.
- SayulitaSol- lovely gold and silver plated, handmade jewelry
3. Go Surfing
The Pacific Coast of Mexico has some of the best surf in the Americas, especially for beginners and intermediate surfers.
Here, beaches and tides allow for a lot of whitewash if you're trying out surfing for the first time or consistent waves for those that have some board time under their belts already.
There are many little surf shops and schools from where you can get surf lessons near Sayulita's main beach. You can also rent boards from the same surf schools.
Group lessons, private tuition and rentals are all easy to find in Sayulita. Some of the best surf schools in town are Lunazul, Marea and Avex Surf.
4. Go Whale watching
If you're in Mexico during whale watching season you'll not want to miss the opportunity to go whale watching, especially if you haven't yet been.
The whale watching season in Mexico is pretty short and only lasts from December to March each year but during this time it's almost guaranteed to see humpback whales in Banderas Bay. To see the whales, you'll need to go out on a boat as part of a tour or you can also rent a luxury boat for a day trip on the water.
It's a good idea to do your research before committing to a tour company. You'll want to look for a skipper who cares about the whales and knows how to approach them without scaring them off.
I recommend this tour for whale watching from Sayulita. This tour also leaves from Sayulita and combines whale watching with snorkelling at the Marietas Islands National Park.
5. Catch a sunset at Carricitos Beach
One of the best beaches in Sayulita is Carricitos Beach. It's located over the other side of the headland towards the west of Sayulita town.
Playa Carricitos Sayulita about a 20-minute walk from Sayulita town but the road is a little hilly. You can also get here by motorbike, ATV or golf cart but by car, it's a little difficult due to the narrowness of the road.
Carricitos Beach is the best for watching the sunset directly over the ocean (it faces directly west). The beach is quite wild still- there is only one property and restaurant directly on the beach while the rest is fringed by vegetation and palm trees. I guess you could still call it a hidden beach in Sayulita!
There isn't much to buy here so bring all your own snacks and drinks and come for sunset. It's the perfect end to a lovely day in Sayulita.
6. Go for Brunch
With so many amazing cafes in Sayulita, you can't pass up the opportunity to sleep in late one day and head to brunch. Two of my favorite cafes for brunch are Anchor Cafe and Miscelánea Cafe.

7. Go Zipling
Perhaps not straight after brunch, but ziplining is another great activity you might want to consider in the area.
In the mountains between Sayulita and Punta Mita, you can zipline through the jungle, with insane views of the surrounding coastline. Find out more here.
8. Take a Day Trip to the Marietas Islands
The Marietas Islands are a unique set of islands off the coast of Punta Mita in the Banderas Bay. The islands form part of a National Park and are a UNESCO Heritage Site and home to countless sea bird species, fish species, manta rays, sea turtles, whales and dolphins.
Due to the area being protected, underwater life thrives making it a popular place to come snorkeling.
To visit the Marietas Islands you'll have to take a tour unless you have your own boat, but even then you'll need a permit to access them. Boat trips leave from Punta Mita, Sayulita or Puerto Vallarta.
You'll want to make sure your tour includes some whale watching, time for snorkeling and swimming and also a trip to the Hidden Beach/Love Beach, a gorgeous hidden beach that's only accessible through a cave.
There are countless tour operators who offer this tour but unfortunately, many of them are sub-par. Many of the tours are very commercialized and gimmicky, they can get very crowded and even tours that consider themselves to be 'eco-friendly' allow garbage and cigarette butts to fall into the water unnoticed.
If you prefer taking a tour that's more focused on wildlife, nature and the environment rather than the party make sure to check out this one and this one as they seem to be the most responsible.
Before signing up for any trip make sure to ask for an itinerary breakdown, tour group numbers and environmental responsibility initiatives.
9. Do Yoga
There's nothing quite like a stretch or yoga session in the morning or right after a morning surf. Luckily there are many yoga schools and centres that offer a full schedule of morning classes that you can drop into during your visit.
Paraiso Yoga is one of the best in Sayulita that offers unique passes to make sure you're still flowing during your time in Sayulita.
They offer a 7-day unlimited yoga pass for one or a 5-day yoga pass for a couple. They have many more monthly rates and pass options to suit your needs and a monthly schedule of yoga with both morning and evening classes of a variety of different yoga styles.
10. Wander the colorful streets
The streets of downtown Sayulita are filled with wonderful street art, colorful buildings and interesting boutiques and corners with locals selling trinkets and fresh fruit in wheelbarrows.
There really is no better way to get a know a new place than simply walking around.
Make sure to look out for the wonderful street art, boutiques mentioned previously and don't forget to take your Instagram photo at 'Slap Street', or Flag Street- you'll no doubt see it on your way around- it's one block of Calle Delfines.
11. Go Horseback Riding
Enjoying the beaches on horseback makes a really lovely change from just walking around. Head out on a local adventure on horseback through the village of Higuera Blanca, the jungles, and the stunning beaches.
Not only do you get to enjoy these lovely animals for a while, but this tour will also take you to some really gorgeous, off-the-beaten-path places in the area. Check out more information and book here.
12. Take a Day Trip to San Pancho
San Pancho or San Francisco Nayarit is a small town just north of Sayulita. While over the last few years Sayulita has developed at an alarming pace and become more and more commercial, San Pancho still has a very grassroots, community air about it.
It's less of a party town and more of a slow, conscious connection type of place. If you're looking for somewhere to travel slow and to connect to the local people and life by the sea then San Pancho is the place for you.
There are so many local boutiques and businesses to explore here as well as some incredible restaurants. San Pancho's beach is also beautiful so it's worth coming here for a day to soak up the sun and the unique atmosphere.

13. Spend a Day at a Local Day Spa
For those wanting to relax on a deeper level, you'll be pleased to know that Sayulita does have a handful of great day spas where you can relax, indulge in some luxury body treatments, massages and even facials.
7 Spa – A reputable yet affordable day spa minutes from the main beach. Come here to indulge in massage therapy, including Thai massage, cupping therapy and unique facials including a spirulina enzyme mask that gently exfoliates leaving the face feeling soft and supple.
Nirvanna Day Spa– Another great option for hot stone massage, massage therapy and other spa treatments.
14. Take a Trip to Punta de Mita
If you're looking for a few more luxurious options, you'll want to perhaps base yourself in Punta de Mita. Located on the headland between Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta, Punta de Mita is Nayarit's most exclusive area.
It's difficult to just drive there and explore as the whole area is gated and guarded but you can get in if you're staying at the St Regis Punta Mita Resort or the Four Seasons Resort or if you come to dine in their restaurants. After lunch, you can explore the property and the beach, which are some of the nicest in the area.

15. Hang out in Sayulita's Plaza Principal
Sayulita's main plaza is full of local life, culture and is a fantastic opportunity for relaxing and people watching.
You'll no doubt come across the Central Square at some point during your time in Sayulita and you might even take a photo at the giant 'Sayulita' sign, but this square is always alive with life.
Take a seat on a shaded bench to avoid the midday sun and relax amid the hustle and bustle.
You'll find many local Huichol families here selling souvenirs, a lovely little church to poke your head into and you can even play with some of the friendly street dogs or improve your Spanish by talking to the locals.
16. Enjoy the Nightlife
If you're a nightlife person, you'll be pleased to know there are many places to party in Sayulita.
Just walking down the main streets at night, you'll be able to see restaurants whose tables spill out onto the street and food truck bars set up on various corners. One of the best ways to get a feel for the Sayulita nightlife is to just walk around and see which places look inviting that night.
Some great options to check out for nightlife:
- Cava– a nice little bar with some of the best cocktails in Sayulita- make sure to try the tamarind margarita.
- Latitude 20- Good place to meet other travellers/nomads with great live music in the evenings.
- Bar Don Pato – Lively bar on the Central Square.
17. Hike to Malpaso Beach
It's often true that the best things in life take a little more effort. The same rings true for the beaches in Sayulita.
If you want to find some of the best beaches in the area while also getting a taste for some hiking in Sayulita, you'll want to check out Malpaso Beach.
Malpaso Beach is one of the wildest, raw and unspoilt beaches in the area. It lies just north of Sayulita, right between Sayulita and San Pancho. To get there isn't easy (nor is it difficult either)- that's why this beach is one of the least crowded and if you make the effort to get there you'll probably have it all for yourself.
To get to Malpaso Playa go to Sayulita's main beach and keep walking north past all the hotels and resorts. When you get to the end, take the path that leads you over the headland and into the jungle. You'll come out on the other side onto Malpaso beach where you can spend the day playing in the waves and enjoying nature in its purest form.
There are no services here so make sure to take all you need for the day; water, drinks, snacks, fruit, towel etc.
18. Join a Yoga and Wellness Retreat
With wellness travel becoming more and more popular each day- yay!- there are now quite a few options for yoga and wellness retreats in the Sayulita area.
If you're looking to get the most out of the Nayarit Riviera while also improving your practice and building new relationships with like-minded individuals, check out Book Yoga Retreat and their Sayulita Retreat Options.
I always book my retreats through Book Yoga Retreats as all the best local retreats can be found on them- it's the ultimate database for local retreats and you can check the reviews too before booking. Check out all the amazing retreats in Sayulita here.
Haramara retreat runs various yoga and meditation retreats, both group and personal retreats throughout the year and you can check their website here to find out more about their upcoming retreats.

19. Eat Authentic Mexican Food
With tacos, grilled fish and seafood, tostadas, and enchiladas around every corner in Sayulita, make the most of being in Mexico and feast on all the amazing authentic food.
Tacos are by far the most popular food here with restaurants and street food stalls all serving up the much-loved staple. But there are also plenty more foods to try like seafood tostadas, grilled fish and seafood, and even mole (although for the best mole, you'll need to go to Oaxaca).
20. Take a Day Trip to Puerto Vallarta
If you're staying in Sayulita for a while and you want to explore further- especially if you're looking for bigger and more commercial stores- head to Puerto Vallarta for the day. It's one of the best things to do around Sayulita, Mexico.
Here you'll find a wide range of activities from shopping, to exploring the marina, to walking along the popular Malecon at dusk.
Other things you won't want to miss in Puerto Vallarta are to explore the old Centro and Romantic Zone, Playa Los Muertos and its unique, sailboat-style pier as well as the beautiful Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe Cathedral. All this can easily be done in a day.
21. Hike Monkey Mountain Sayulita
Just south of Sayulita, there is a small mountain or hill called Monkey Mountain. I'm not sure if there are many monkeys up there -we didn't see any.
The Monkey Mountain Hike, Sayulita is perfect for those wanting to add a little Sayulita hiking to their trip or to get out of town to explore the surroundings a little more. It's not the best hike you'll ever do but the view from the top of the surrounding jungle and the ocean is fantastic.
The best time to go up is for sunset or golden hour, just make sure to bring a head torch to light your way on the way back. If you're in Sayulita during whale watching season (Dec-March) keep your eye open for whales.
To get to the trailhead you'll need to drive or get a taxi. Taxi drivers will know where it is, just mention 'Cerro del Mono' and they will take you to the trailhead.
22. Hike to Playa de los Muertos
I say hike but it really is just a quick walk over to Playa Los Muertos.
Located just to the west of Sayulita's main beach, Playa Los Muertos is a lovely, small beach surrounded by rocky outcrops on either side which protects it from the giant Pacific waves. For this reason, it's the best beach in Sayulita for swimming.
Surrounded by coconut palms and gorgeous vegetation arrive early to choose the best spot. Then order a few margaritas or sparkling waters and you're ready to relax.
Facilities are pretty limited at this beach- there are two makeshift bars serving drinks and some snacks but don't expect too much.
On your way to Playa Los Muertos you'll pass right by Sayulita cemetery, so make sure to get a glimpse of the flamboyantly decorated space especially if you're here around the Day of the Dead (Nov 1st).
23. Stay in a Tropical Boutique Hotel
There are no big resort chains in Sayulita and the town still has a small, hippy appeal but that doesn't mean there's a shortage of places to stay. In fact, Sayulita has some lovely little boutique hotels to stay in where you can relax by the pool, enjoy the vibes and really relax.
If you want to prioritize your stay make sure to check out Don Benito Boutique Hotel, the most design-forward boutique hotel in Sayulita and Siete Lunas because the views don't get any better.
24. Get a Massage
To truly relax and make you feel like on vacation why not start your trip with a massage?
There are so many places to get a massage in Sayulita, at a private spa or even right on the beach. You'll no doubt see plenty of places to get a massage in Sayulita and you might even be offered a massage when walking down the beach.
The best places to get a massage in Sayulita are Nirvanna Day Spa and Sayulita Holistic Bodywork just make sure to book an appointment via their website first.
25. Enjoy a Margarita on the Beach at Sunset
If you happen to make your way to Sayulita Beach, Mexico for sunset one night, and we highly recommend you do, make sure to also grab a margarita while you're there.
Head down a little further to El Costeño, a lovely little bar where they'll serve you whatever drink you like as the sun goes down.
I went for the spicy margarita and while it wasn't the best I've ever had, the moment was pretty epic.
26. Take a Trip to Guadalajara
For a chance to explore Mexico a little more, why not take a trip to Guadalajara, the capital of Jalisco state? It takes just over 4 hours to get to Guadalajara so I definitely recommend going for at least two days.
There you'll be able to sample some of the best Mexican and international food, explore some cool neighborhoods, and visit the city's main historical sights and markets.
Where to Stay in Sayulita
There are so many amazing places to stay in Sayulita. We stayed in a little Airbnb outside the centre but I also highly recommend the following properties and boutique hotels.
One of my biggest Sayulita travel tips is to opt for accommodation that isn't right in the middle of downtown Sayulita. The town picks up at night so if you want a restful stay, it's a good idea to stay a little further out!
Casa Dos Chicos – An incredible tropical, 4 bedroom villa sitting in the treetops above Sayulita. From here you have incredible views of the surrounding areas.
The unique villa accommodates up to 10 people and comes with a heated infinity pool and rooftop hot tub, barbecue and daily housekeeping and concierge service. Check availability and book here.
Don Benito Boutique Hotel – A super cute boutique hotel right in Sayulita town- Minimal, tasteful design with lovely balconies, a pool area surrounded by cacti and great staff to match. Check availability and book here.
Siete Lunas – Located minutes from Los Muertos and Carricitos Beaches- the best beaches in Sayulita- this beautiful boutique hotel offers beautiful, large, open rooms with palapa roofs and endless ocean views.
The perfect place if you're looking for beach time and peace and quiet. Check availability and book here.
Where to Eat
Anchor Cafe – Hands down my favourite cafe in all Sayulita, a visit to Anchor Cafe at least once during your stay in Sayulita is a must.
It's best at breakfast time where you can dig into extraordinary portions of banana bread french toast, vegan chia pudding topped with a frozen smoothie and creamy avocado toast on homemade sourdough.
Organi-K – With a line down the street most mornings, this cafe/restaurant in Sayulita has the best coffee in town if you like yours strong.
They also do amazing açai bowls, avo toast (but if avo toast is what you're after it's better at Anchor Cafe or Miscelánea), smoothie bowls, sandwiches and poke bowls.
Miscelánea Cafe – Miscelánea Cafe does breakfast, brunch and lunch with so much vibe and aesthetic. There are many delicious breakfasts and brunch classics it'll take you ages to decide. Go for gluten-free pancakes, eggs, chia oats, yoghurt bowls, fruit bowls or local breakfast classics like chilaquiles.

Here's how to sort and pack your children's belongings efficiently while keeping them involved every step of the way. Start with a Plan Before diving into the packing process, it's essential to have a clear plan. Discuss the move with your children to help them understand what's happening and why. Explain that they'll be part of the process, from sorting their items to packing them up. This inclusion can help alleviate any anxiety they might feel about the move and turn it into an exciting adventure. Declutter Together The first step in the packing process is to declutter.

"I'm not putting that on my expense report," quips Jack Sommer, referring to the Molson he's just ordered while aboard a plane sitting on the tarmac.
As corporate controller of Boston-based Student Advantage Inc., he knows that the cost of one beer on his delayed night flight isn't a threat to the start-up's bottom line. But when it comes to controlling travel and entertainment expenses at the company, which provides information to college students, Sommer chooses to lead by example. That means not sticking the company for every last penny during its push toward profitability.
He's also shopping for the best airfare online. In this particular case, that means traveling into and out of alternative airports. Often employees and executives are encouraged to then ask the company's Boston-based travel agent to match the price with a better itinerary.
Now, thinks Sommer, the agent is "quoting us differently because they know we're going to challenge every ticket."
During a cell-phone interview with CFO.com, he boasts that he's saved the company at least $300 on a single round-trip ticket by flying out of Providence instead of Boston and into Baltimore Washington International instead of Reagan Washington National.
He bought two round-trip tickets — for himself and a co-worker — on Travelocity's Web site for $300, plus a $50 car-rental fee. Had he not used the new itinerary, air travel for Sommer alone would have cost $450. Sommer did his comparison shopping on the Orbitz and Expedia Web sites.
What's more, like the rest of the company's business travelers, Sommer operates under mandated restrictions on ground transportation and meals. Among the limitations are no limousines or hired cars. "It may be the employee drives or takes a taxi or shuttle service," says CFO Kenneth Goldman. "We have set an absolute dollar amount [$40] above which we will not reimburse for breakfast, lunch, or dinner."
For his part, Sommer drove to the airport, taking a shuttle from the $6-per-day lot off airport property rather than parking in the $15-per-day lot inside. In the last eight months the company's T&E initiative has saved it close to $500,000, says Sommer. Goldman adds that the plan is to cut between $1 million and $2 million in costs this year.
To meet that goal, the cost-conscious duo keeps the 500 employees at the company on a strict T&E diet. Sommer and Goldman go beyond the traditional approach of having the human resources department communicate policies and procedures.
Instead, they're taking matters into their own hands. Violators of the guidelines and mandates set forth at Student Advantage can face an enforcing E-mail or even a phone call from the CFO or controller.
"We don't want to be the big bad wolves," says Sommer. But when an employee spends money in an "egregious" way, Sommer might ask, gently: "Why do you have to spend all this? Look at what the rest of the company is saving."
Like many companies these days, Student Advantage is evaluating customized Web-based booking software, which warns users when violations of corporate travel policy occur and details the lowest fares available. But such automation can be costly and time-consuming to implement, says Sommer, noting that Student Advantage prefers the Internet.
"Why can't we use the tool that's out there that everyone understands already?" he says. "I think we're getting a pretty good canvassing of what's out there [online]. It's already free, and it's effective."
For now the company's managers have chosen to focus on executive persuasion. In one recent case Sommer challenged a senior executive regarding an $1,800 ticket, booked through the company's travel agent, for a round trip between San Diego and Boston. Sommer told the executive that a division controller had been able to book the same round-trip flight, plus two hotel nights, for $650 online.
The price difference got the executive's attention. "He didn't do it again," says Sommer. And the example seems to be catching on: About 85 percent of tickets for Student Advantage employees are booked online.
It doesn't take too much encouragement anymore to get employees to seek the lowest possible fares. "Instead of complaining, they look at it as a challenge," says Goldman. "Whether shareholders or not, they are stakeholders in the business," notes Sommer. "They want it to do well." Adds Goldman, "I feel sort of cheap saying all of this, but as a CFO of a company heading to profitability in the fourth quarter, [getting employees to cut their travel costs is] the prudent and responsible thing to do."
To be sure, some CFOs may not have the time for such personal intervention. Richard Wallman, Honeywell International's CFO, must monitor 25,000 traveling employees, review more than 100,000 of their transactions annually, and oversee the ongoing implementation of booking software.
He certainly isn't keeping track employee by employee. Instead, Wallman has been "the visible champion," says James Lee, director of Honeywell's global travel services: "He did a videotape at the onset of the [online booking] project, where he espoused the benefits of what we were doing." The Wallman video is shown during training sessions and used for testimonial in communications.
Even large companies, however, are instituting some tough love. "A big dynamic this year is that corporations are getting more forceful" and mandating earlier in the implementation process, says Jeff Palmer, COO of GetThere, a Sabre Holdings company and Honeywell's booking-software vendor.
Goldman and Sommer have thought about hiring a full-time person to handle the T&E initiative. But in that case, says Sommer, they'd be paying an employee $40,000 to save money that they're already doing a good job of saving on their own.

Tax strategy that can compensate for losses – but investors must act now
Investors may get a wake-up call this winter when it comes to taxes, but it doesn't have to be that way.
According to BNY Mellon's Ben Slavin, selling losing investments is an important time to cut back on capital gains. He warns that waiting until January or February may be too late.
"Mutual fund investors are in for a pretty nasty surprise," the firm's global head of ETFs told CNBC's "ETF Edge" last week. "Many of the mutual fund companies have already provided estimates on their website, so investors can take a look and see what their expectations will be around capital gains and what kind of tax bill they're going to have at the end of the year."
With the major indices lower for the year, Slavin claims the strategy has broad appeal.
"It's not just about reaping the losses," he said. "It's the right time of year to take a look at the portfolio you have and understand how you position yourself in these markets. It's a double-edged sword."
Matt Bartolini of State Street Global Advisors also sees benefits for investors looking to offset tax losses and remain in the market.
"You own a mutual fund that tracks the broad base of U.S. stocks. … That mutual fund could actually be in line to pay a large capital gains dividend because of the loss associated with the overall portfolio," the company's CEO said in the same. the segment. "At this point, sell that mutual fund and then buy an associated ETF, and therefore you're able to maintain your market exposure and reap those losses in some of those areas of the market."
Bartolini said investors can also sell broad-based ETFs and buy back into others that cover a similar marketplace.
"One of the tactics that we see used in clients' portfolios in tax-loss harvesting is to just lower your costs, go into a lower cost exposure, harvest some losses and maintain that allocation to a market exposure like U.S. stocks, like emerging market stocks," he said.

Nandalike Vs Bolar
New Delhi, Dec 8 (IANS): Researchers have discovered that a threat actor, who claimed to have gained access to CBI's (Central Bureau of Investigation) alleged confidential documents, operation and dealing documents, is selling this data for $1,300 on the Dark Web.
However, upon detailed investigation by the cybersecurity company CloudSEK researchers, it was discovered that the documents being sold are not authentic and have been manipulated and deemed fake.
According to the report, the access was likely gained by compromising an employee via a phishing attack based on the actor's TTP.
On December 2, researchers discovered a threat actor claiming access to CBI Files, comprising confidential documents, operation details, dealing files, and sensitive information and communications.
Sample images shared by the hacker include alleged data on NIA, Wanted Files, Confidential letters to the PMO, Internal communication, and more.
The researchers mentioned that doubts occurred about the hacker's claims due to deviations in formatting, language, and content.
"References to Qatari assets seem inappropriate, hinting at a potential motive for publicity. The document might be leaked to the media for sensationalism," said the researchers.
In addition, the researchers noted that the hacker's reluctance to sell access to the CBI's compromised system during the HUMINT (human intelligence) process, contrary to typical threat actor behaviour, raises credibility concerns over the claims of the actor.

This makes a pleasant change from the normal over-tinselled Christmas productions. Though there are a couple of trees in the background the concert is a very formal affair from the Berlin Schauspielhaus with tempi on the slow side throughout. This should not detract would be viewers however as the musical quality is exemplary and the range impressive. Alongside more obvious works from Praetorius, Bach and Gruber we hear the Harp arrangement of Handel's Organ Concerto Op4 No4, hymns and prayers from a Russian Orthodox Choir and Hail the Conquering Hero comes using the text of Rejoice greatly. For Christmas afternoon - following the Queen's speech - this could be a pleasant antidote to excess!

In what has been described in the international media as a "political earthquake", former Portuguese PM José Sócrates is today in court facing a welter of tax evasion and corruption charges.
The ex-Socialist leader who has for so long been associated with high-profile "scandals" was detained as he flew into Portugal from Paris, and is understood to have spent last night in custody awaiting today's appearance in court.
According to news sources, Sócrates knew of the pending detention. He had actually checked-in to his flight for Portugal on Thursday, but a "leak of information" caused him to sit it out until Friday night while his lawyer made contact with DCIAP (the central department of penal action and investigation) leading inquiries.
Also tipped off were a number of Portuguese TV stations which raced to the airport to catch the drama as it unfolded.
As Lusa news agency points out, this is "the first time in the history of Portuguese democracy that a former PM has been detained for judicial interrogation".
"It is a case that promises to have both judicial and political repercussions," adds Lusa – while elsewhere European papers like France's Le Monde have dubbed the situation "a political earthquake".
The DCIAP investigation is being widely reported as having been ongoing for months.
The "key" to the alleged web of corruption is understood to have been Sócrates' cousin José Paulo Bernardo Pinto Sousa, who is believed to have served as an intermediary for Sócrates in the moving of millions of euros to Switzerland and various offshores.
Also involved in the process were three others "at least one of whom is connected to Group Lena", reports an exclusive in Correio da Manhã this morning.
A communiqué issued by the Attorney General's office just after midnight last night confirmed the other detentions as follows: "As part of an inquiry led by the Public Ministry, in collaboration with DCIAP, in which crimes of fiscal fraud, money laundering and corruption are being investigated, and following diligences carried out over the last few days, four detentions have been made. Among those detained is José Sócrates."
According to CM, the "starting point of the investigation was the list of clients of Sociedade Montenegro Chaves – a currency exchange bureau in downtown Lisbon run by Francisco Canas, known as 'Zé das Medalhas'".
Throughout Thursday, searches were ongoing "at Grupo Lena and other companies", reports CM, while Sócrates and his lawyer remained "uncontactable".
As news channels buzz – with political commentators being interviewed on practically every radio and TV station – Portuguese society is ever more aware that every single scandal in recent months has been sparked by "abuse of power".
Luxury €3 million home in Paris prompted investigations
According to CM, investigations into the massive "Monte Branco" financial scandal led prosecutors to question the origin of money used by José Sócrates to buy his luxury €3 million home in Paris.
"Two people very close to Sócrates – his cousin and the head of Grupo Lena Carlos Santos Silva – are suspected of having managed elevated sums of money belonging to the former leader of the PS," reveals CM.
Intriguingly, Sócrates has always measured his words when quizzed on the movement of money and offshores.
In interview with RTP last year, he said: "I have only had one bank account for the last 25 years. I have never had any stocks, offshore or foreign bank accounts. The first thing I did when I left the government (in 2011) was ask for a bank loan."
But even so, Sócrates has been associated with allegations of high-level corruption and influence-peddling.
As Público reports this morning, his name "has been involved in a number of judicial processes, like the licensing of the Freeport development in Alcochete and the controversial phone-tappings in Face Oculta, but never has justice gone this far in relation to Sócrates".
"Golden Visa" judge in charge of court hearings this morning
Following a week-long investigative marathon involving the latest embarrassing case of corruption in the issuing of Portugal's Golden Visas, "super judge" Carlos Alexandre is now at the helm of this new process.
He will be overseeing interrogations today, backed by Rosário Teixeira – the prosecutor in the Monte Branco case.
According to CM, a number of recent scandals appear to be 'linked' in as much as people involved in them are all known to each other.
An example is the overlap in Monte Branco: Ricardo Salgado, former BES boss and detained within the investigation, was "close" with Sócrates, reports CM.

Apple is changing its strategy as far as the production of the iPhones is brought to the limelight. The manufacturer plans to have a 48-megapixel sensor in the iPhone 14 Pro series smartphones come 2022.
Compared with other smartphone makers, Apple still has to put effort into its smartphone cameras. The Cupertino firm's initial plan since 2010 has been to provide better iPhones that can shoot decent images by focusing so much on photo processing.
In 2022, the path might change
According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who gives accurate predictions on Apple products, the manufacturer plans to include a 48-megapixel sensor in the iPhone 14 Pro. If this is the case, there is no doubt that the next iPhones will have the capability to record videos at 8K
Remember that in 2022 we also expect that the Apple headset will be formally presented. 8K videos will now come in hand as the idea would be to broadcast videos in high-definition on the VR headsets. There is also a high probability that Apple might incorporate a periscope into its next iPhones to provide a higher-quality zoom.

The Nationals are among the teams that have shown interest in Jeimer Candelario this offseason, reports Jesse Rogers of ESPN. Rogers also tied the free agent corner infielder to the Blue Jays, while a prior report suggested the Angels, D-Backs and Reds had checked in.
Of those teams, only Washington has employed Candelario before. The rebuilding Nats took a $5MM flier on the switch-hitter last offseason. Candelario had been non-tendered by the Tigers on the heels of a dismal 2022 season. He bounced back in D.C., hitting .258/.342/.481 over 99 games. Washington was able to flip him to the Cubs for prospects DJ Herz and Kevin Made, executing the kind of buy-low/midseason trade sequence that noncompetitive teams attempt each offseason.
Candelario didn't quite maintain that form in Chicago. He hit .234/.318/.445 in 41 games as a Cub, finishing the season with a .251/.336/.471 batting line in 576 plate appearances. He connected on 22 home runs and 39 doubles with league average strikeout and walk rates. It was Candelario's third above-average season in four years.
As a result, the 29-year-old (30 next Friday) is in a much better position for this free agent trip. He should secure at least a three-year pact and has a good case for four years. MLBTR predicts he'll land a $70MM guarantee over four seasons, ranking him as the #5 position player in the free agent class.
Bringing Candelario back would obviously be a much more significant commitment for the Nats than it was 12 months ago. Washington has clear opportunity at third base yet again. After the Candelario deal, they turned to journeyman Ildemaro Vargas and former top prospect Carter Kieboom at the position. Washington third basemen hit .189/.247/.311 in 224 plate appearances from July 31 onward.
That's an untenable situation even with the team still amidst a rebuild. Some kind of third base acquisition feels inevitable. While they could be another rebound candidate (e.g. Brian Anderson or non-tender possibility Nick Senzel), Candelario would be a clearer upgrade. General manager Mike Rizzo said last week the team was looking to add a middle-of-the-order lineup presence.
It doesn't appear the Cubs have as strong an interest in a reunion. Rogers reports that Chicago looks unlikely to retain Candelario. They have third base questions of their own, with Nick Madrigal, Patrick Wisdom and Miles Mastrobuoni among the in-house options. None of that group projects as an everyday player for a contender, but the Cubs could look to alternatives in free agency or trade. Matt Chapman is the top free agent at the position; J.D. Davis, Jorge Polanco and Eugenio Suárez are among speculative trade possibilities.

Do Vegetables Lose their Properties when they're Frozen?
When you're talking about any healthy diet, eating plenty of fresh food is obviously a priority. However, did you know you can also consume certain foods that have been subject to industrial processing? Below, we'll show you whether frozen vegetables lose their properties or not. We'll also take a look at if you can safely include these foods in your diet.
Before we get started, here's the first thing you should know. Regularly eating fruit and vegetables is associated with a decreased risk of all-cause mortality. This is because of the micronutrients and phytonutrients they contain, which are vital for good health. They help to reduce oxidation and control inflammation in the body.
Frozen vegetables don't lose their properties
It's important to distinguish between two types of industrial processes to do with food. One increases the useful life of the product, and the other kind is designed around making it tastier. The first type of process doesn't negatively impact the nutritional value, or at least not generally speaking. Here we can include freezing, pickling, and some heating processes.
With this kind of process, it's possible to freeze vegetables without them losing their properties. Only small water crystals will form on the vegetable pieces, which will allow them to stay fresh for longer.
While it's true that the flavor may be altered slightly, their nutritional value will remain intact. In fact, different processes such as boiling vegetables in water or exposure to high temperatures can actually affect their properties.
According to a study published in the magazine Journal of Functional Foods, the content of many carotenoids and flavenoids doesn't diminish with freezing or freeze-drying. That means you can be sure the veggies will still do their job despite being preserved at low temperatures.
Refrigerated vegetables can actually lose their properties
Let's now take a look at the opposite of what can happen to frozen veggies, when you keep them in the fridge. Did you know that vegetables kept in the fridge can actually lose their properties over several days? Contact with both air and with the microorganisms that can live in vegetables can start to break down certain vitamins and minerals, which affects their nutritional value.
The same thing can happen if you leave vegetables at room temperature. That's why freezing vegetables can be an excellent option to keep them fresh. It's actually better to keep them in the freezer, especially if you're not going to use them soon. Freezing may affect the flavor and texture slightly, but not their nutritional value.
It's essential to eat vegetables, even if they're frozen
Frozen vegetables have at least two main advantages over their fresh counterparts. The first is that they stay usable and fresh over a longer period of time. In the second place, they tend to be cheaper, which means that they're more accessible to the majority of people.
Of course, it's beyond a doubt that regularly eating vegetables is very beneficial. In fact, the phytonutrients that they contain help to prevent the development of many complex diseases, such as cancer. This is what an investigation points out, which was published in the magazine International Journal of Epidemiology.
However, here's an important tip. You should vary between raw and cooked veggies. While frozen vegetables don't lose their properties, they can lose certain vitamins and minerals when you heat them, such as during boiling.
Include frozen vegetables in your diet
As we've seen, it's possible to eat frozen vegetables and benefit from all of their nutritional properties. They also have the advantage of being more affordable than fresh veggies. You can even buy frozen veggies that aren't currently in season, which increases the range you can include in your diet.
There are many benefits to regularly eating vegetables. Remember that it's ideal to have as wide a variety of different veggies in your diet as you can. That way you're sure to be getting enough micro and phytonutrients that your body needs to carry out its essential functions.
On the other hand, don't forget it's also a good idea to alternate between fresh and cooked veggies. That way you'll be avoiding losing large quantities of nutrients to the heating and cooking processes, which could make your diet less healthy.

CIO Insights Names Accelsius a "Top 10 Most Innovative Data Center Company to Watch in 2024"
Accelsius highlighted as a data center industry leader for bringing innovative products to market
In the rapidly evolving landscape of data center operations, staying ahead of the curve is essential. As the demand for computational power continues to surge, traditional air cooling methods are reaching their limits in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, and scalability. This is where innovative liquid cooling solutions, like Accelsius' NeuCool™ 2-Phase direct-to-chip (DTC) system, come into play, offering a sustainable, forward-looking approach to data center cooling.
Liquid cooling has gained significant traction in the industry due to its ability to address the ever-increasing heat dissipation challenges of modern IT equipment, also known as the "Thermal Wall." By directly cooling the heat-generating components, such as CPUs and GPUs, 2-Phase direct-to-chip liquid cooling enables cost effective and efficient heat extraction, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the IT equipment and infrastructure.
One of the key advantages of direct-to-chip liquid cooling is its scalability.

Moreover, liquid cooling eliminates the limitations imposed by air cooling, such as airflow constraints and hotspots. By eliminating the reliance on airflow, liquid cooling enables data center operators to achieve higher equipment densities, optimize server placement, and maximize the utilization of available space. This translates into higher computing capacity within the same physical footprint, driving cost savings and efficiency gains.
In terms of energy efficiency, liquid cooling has a distinct advantage over air cooling. By removing heat directly from the source, liquid cooling significantly reduces the energy consumption associated with cooling infrastructure, such as fans and air conditioning systems. This translates into improved power usage effectiveness (PUE) and overall energy savings, contributing to a greener and more sustainable data center operation.
Accelsius' NeuCool™ solution takes liquid cooling to the next level with its advanced two-phase direct-to-chip technology. By utilizing an engineered dielectric fluid, NeuCool™ offers enhanced thermal performance, stability, and reliability without many of the risks associated with single phase water technologies. The innovative design of NeuCool™ ensures efficient heat transfer and minimizes thermal resistance, enabling data centers to achieve remarkable cooling efficiencies and maintain optimal operating conditions for their critical IT infrastructure.
By adopting Accelsius' NeuCool™ solution, data center operators can future-proof their cooling infrastructure and unlock a host of benefits.

A year after taking Oregon DE Arik Armstead at #17 overall in the 2015 draft, the San Francisco 49ers selected another Oregon product with their 2016 1st round pick. Former Oregon DE DeForest Buckner was selected by 49ers GM Trent Baalke at #7 overall.
Buckner has been compared to another NFC West DE: Calias Campbell. From Addicted to Quack, SB Nation's community for Oregon Ducks fans:
Pro Comparison:
Calias Campbell of the Arizona Cardinals seems to be the general concensus for the type of player that Buckner will be. The size of the players is very similar and the lineman for Arizona plays at a very high level. Other comparrisons liken Buckner to his former defensive lineman partner of Arik Armstead.
Campbell is a menace for the Arizona Cardinals and Buckner has the potential to be that type of player. And giving former Oregon HC and new 49ers HC Chip Kelly a chance to coach up one of his Oregon players is going to offer him a comfortable learning curve.
The 49ers have a lot to figure out before becoming serious contenders again, but this pick has the potential to cause some havoc for Greg Robinson and Rob Havenstein.

Many researchers have examined religiosity, including measures of religiosity. However, researchers studying religiosity have often ignored behaviors associated with religion. The present research attempts to open up this area by constructing a measure of religiosity based completely on a study of overt behavior. The Behavioral Religiosity Inventory (BRI) determines which specific behaviors participants express as devotion to their religions and how much time they spend engaging in those religious activities. This measure of religiosity was constructed from responses given as part of focus groups, which provided valuable information about the daily religious life of college students. Three hundred ten college students were recruited and successfully completed all of the measures and requirements of this study, which included the BRI, and four other scales and demographic questions to validate the new measure. An exploratory factor analysis indicated that the BRI could assess three factors, Independent Activities, Ritualistic Traditional Activities, and Group Activities. Internal consistency was excellent for the overall survey, and the Independent and Group Activities factors. Finally, the validity coefficients comparing the BRI and the other measures of religiosity supported the validity of the BRI. The measure seemed to be well supported by all evidence.

Prolific architecture firm ODA has unveiled a design for a new residential building that will rise on the graves of three small Gramercy buildings. The incoming 19-story tower at 150 East 23rd Street will consume Nos. 150-154 and bring along with it 54 probably pricey apartments. Because they'll be on the larger side, YIMBY guesses they'll be condos. Kent Chang is developing the project, which has gotten the green light to move forward with demolition but is still waiting for an approved new building application.
The new building will have a 19th floor penthouse with exclusive rooftop use, as well as nearly 6,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space.

Broken: (comment) About the new comments-system
Hi, TIB readers -
If you've tried to add a comment today you might have noticed that we now require registration with the TypeKey system in order to post comments.
I know it's a hassle, but you only have to go through registration once, and then you remain signed in. Also, since it then remembers your signup info, you can post comments even more easily than before (since you don't have to type your name and URL every time).
We made this change because in recent months we've seen too many irrelevant comments, drowning out the legitimate comments, and forcing us to spend time manually cleaning things up.
We'll try this out for awhile, and I hope it raises the signal-to-noise level in the comments section. If not, there's always what other popular blogs like Boing Boing and Kottke have done - turn off comments altogether - but I hope to avoid that.
And now, the comments section for this post. Go ahead, let us know why this is such a broken idea ;) -mh
i think this is a much better way to do it as the sign up process is not much of a hassle and this way theres no irrevelant messages that people just randomly post
i think turning off comments would be a bad thing because well then theres no way we can say what we want to say and so theres not much interaction
How is this going to stop the irrelevant comments? The people posting those comments can sign in just as easily as the rest of us. Mind you it's not a horrible idea, it should act as a deterent. Not a Broken idea Mark, it's just that we don't like much change here. Now that I'm signed in as a user it's no big deal. It's just one more username and password in my life.
Of course, this one TypeKey registration can be used on any weblog which uses TypeKey, which is quite a lot of them now. Of all the ways to add registration this is one of the better ones. TypeKey was pretty well-thought-out, too, like with having a different display name than username, so you don't have to have a hissyfit if someone else has already taken the name that you hold so dear.
It is very easy to block someone unless that person constantly gets new email addresses and then why would he? Just to post garbage on this site?
I found it very easy. I'm glad to help keep the forum relevant.
Happy to finally know what TypeKey is, after seeing it everywhere.
Hunk o' mercy! Great shades of Caesar's ghost!! There is no way that this will stop me from posting all sorts of irrelevant nonsense. I can always create a new account if I'm blocked.
By the way, did I mention that I like wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide posts.
I think that any mandatory registration scheme is inherently broken, so I'm afraid my vote is that this is a lousy user experience.
Though you'll no doubt note that I've gone through it to post this.
My biggest problem is that it smacks of making the USER jump through extra hoops to solve a problem on the PROVIDER'S end. It's too much work to edit posts, so the posters have to do the work instead. Fine for the site provider, especially when the site isn't their primary business (like this one), but a hassle for the user.
When the user is an actual CUSTOMER that is a major experience blunder that can cost a site valuable business. I no longer subscribe to a forum site that I used to contribute a lot of work to and put a lot of effort into keeping up and running, not to mention supporting with my continued subscription fees. When the site owners instituted policy after policy that eased their workload considerably but made the experience for the users more and more frustrating, I just gave up. They lost both my contributions and my business.
In the meantime, I wonder how long it will take for a username/password to show up on BugMeNot and other such sites to allow posting without registration.
Put one emphatic checkmark in the 'broken' column for me, thanks.
I like this because I don't have to type in my name and stuff every single time I want to make a comment.
To quote myself:
"Dear Mark,
The new comments system would be great, except for one thing: I CAN'T POST COMMENTS ON OLDER POSTS THAT I HAVE ONLY RECENTLY READ AND WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please fix this imediately.
Thank you.
Okay, so that took about 5 minutes, since I was already registered, but didn't remember being registered. Then once I received my pw, I logged in to find out that my email address wasn't verified. That's all done, and hopefully I won't have to go through it again. I think the new system will work out fine as long as she snail makes it over.
Long live the snail.
hmm...well I had troubles trying to log on in Safari, when i clicked login there were a few redirects and it led me back to this comments page...but firefox seems to work fine...
How will this help with comment spam/irrevelant comments? Anyone could just as easily sign up for a new account, and start spamming...
Anyways, all you Internet Explorer users are broken! Use a *real* browser, like Opera or Firefox :)
Not everyone can install Firefox on the computer they are using. For example libraries, schools and internet cafés won't let you. Also, many offices require that all software be installed by the IT department, and don't consider Firefox to be a necessity.
Therefore, not being compatible with IE is even more broken than not being compatible with Firefox because anyone who has Windows probably has IE installed on their computer, even if they don't like to use it.
MY SCHOOL HAS FIREFOX AND SAFARI(something also better than IE) ON ALL THEIR MACS.
P.S. Different Sean here.
IE doesn't work! I just tried. I'll bet there are lots of people wanting to say this but couldn't. Someone tell me if netscape works. To those with only IE:
Mozilla Firefox 1.5 http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/
Netscape Browser 8.1
Both are free, and work for PC and Mac.
I'm somewhat new to posting (not new to the site), and I never had used the Ye Olde Systeme. I know what 'name' and 'email' mean, but what am I supposed to type in 'URL'? Please tell me.
Well, that can't be safe because there is a SLIGHT chance nobody is in 1st Class and some one would have to run up and get it. But, by the time they get it, they may be DEAD... Very morbid.
Also, when I first looked at the pic, I thought "Wow! They finally made a hammer that smashes Windows XP!! :D
