10 Worst Movies of 2012
As we established in our list of the 25 Best Movies of 2012, it was a pretty great year at the multiplexes.
But in what you are about to read below, well, there is no "good."
Some of these actually didn't do too badly in the box office and one might incite some rage from a certain fan army (sorry guys, but our whole staff agreed!), but either way, we want to know what you think. Read up on our 10 clunkers of 2012 and hit up the comments section below with your two cents.
5. 'Snow White and the Huntsman'
More like "Snow White and the Hunts-mehhh." Kristen Stewart is great at posing and making tough faces while wearing just-for-ladies armor on a red carpet, but a master thespian she's not. K.Stew has only a handful of lines in this two-hour drudge of a film, and Chris Hemsworth, while great at grunting and looking handsome, is not so great at enunciating. The best part of this movie was watching Charlize Theron as the evil queen Ravenna, melting in and out of various shapes while screaming like a banshee. She's a crow! She's a lady again! She's a puddle! This is great! Oh, now we're back in the woods with Bella and Thor. Zzzzzz. Pass. — KW
4. 'Red Dawn'
It's never a good sign when a movie sits on the shelves for a few years (jeez Louise, how many spring/summer/fall previews was this thing included in?). But "Dawn" almost looked like it could benefit from its shelving (due to MGM's financial woes), as stars Chris Hemsworth ("Thor") and Josh Hutcherson ("Hunger Games") blew the hell up amid the delay. But nope. America saw "Dawn" for what it was, another wholly unnecessary remake that not only doesn't improve on the original, but taints our memory of it (not that the '84 Swayze edition was a masterpiece). And don't get us started on the amazingly offensive "ethnicity tweaks" done in post-production. What were you thinking? — KP
3. 'Man on a Ledge'
Possibly the worst thing about this movie — and trust me, that's saying a lot — is how good Elizabeth Banks is in it. She never appears to be acting; she seems uncannily real in every role, like human tofu picking up the flavor of whatever movie she's in. In this case, it just serves to make everything around her seem even more false, including the implausible plot, the wooden performances, the ridiculous dialogue and Sam Worthington's mullet. Which, by the way, is the second worst thing about this movie. A mullet? For crying out loud. — BT
2. 'That's My Boy'
This is an Adam Sandler movie: are you shocked to find it on this list? We didn't think so, but just so you have the ammo for properly mocking this clunker, here's what you need to know. As a young teen, Sandler's character knocked up his teacher (Eva Amurri) and became an instant celebrity. Now, after nearly 30 years, he's a broke nobody with a beef with Vanilla Ice and a son (Andy Samberg) who refuses to acknowledge any relation to him. Believe it or not, it all goes downhill from there, with hijinks including infidelity, severe alcoholism and incest. Hilarious, right? — BH
1. 'The Devil Inside'
Among our staff, we've been to literally thousands of advance screenings, many of them "promotional," which, as you may know, is when a studio gives out passes to moviegoers as opposed or in addition to movie critics. These audiences tend to be kind to the movies — far more kind than cranky critics, that's for sure — but the promotional screening we attended for this clunker marked the first time EVER we witnessed a crowd boo the film during its end credits. Proof that the mockumentary/found footage approach doesn't always work, "Devil Inside" just feels phony, with shoddy acting, forced scares and an anti-climactic, utterly ridiculous ending that deservedly brought out the boo birds. — KP

GeCube, one of well-known suppliers of graphics boards, has reportedly sold its graphics cards business and will concentrate on other products. Separately, Gigabyte Technology, another leading maker of mainboards and graphics cards, sold its stake in the supplier.
Gigabyte Technology owned 61.5% stake in GeCube, but for some reason decided to sell it to an undisclosed owner, reports DigiTimes web-site citing Apple Daily news-paper. The new owner reportedly does not want to focus on making graphics boards and wants to concentrate on multimedia and mobile products the company has been developing for several years now.
Neither Gigabyte nor GeCube have so far commented on the information and it the details regarding the alleged deal are not clear at the moment. At press time, even Taiwan Stock Exchange did not contain any mentions of the deal.
It is interesting to note that GeCube has always concentrated on rather advanced and/or non-standard graphics cards, but has so far been a very loyal partner of ATI, graphics business unit of AMD. In fact, the company launched both latest offering from the chip supplier: Radeon HD 4770 and Radeon HD 4890.

Intel Corp. on Monday said that it had discovered an errata of Serial ATA controller within its 6-series core-logic set that supports latest Core i "Sandy Bridge" microprocessors. The company will recall and replace about eight million chipsets with new ones. The company claims that the vast majority of end-users will hardly experience actual problems as the probability of failure is about 1%. Quite naturally, until the issue is resolved, consumers should not get Sandy Bridge-based systems.
As part of ongoing quality assurance, Intel has discovered a design issue in a recently released support chip, the Intel 6-series, code-named Cougar Point, and has implemented a silicon fix. In some cases, the Serial ATA ports within the chipsets may degrade over time, potentially impacting the performance or functionality of SATA-linked devices such as hard disk drives and optical disc drives. Intel has stopped shipment of the affected support chip from its factories. Intel has corrected the design issue, and has begun manufacturing a new version of the support chip which will resolve the issue. The Sandy Bridge microprocessor is unaffected and no other products are affected by this issue. Still, with no chipsets for Sandy Bridge, it is highly likely that a lot of manufacturers will halt shipments of systems featuring the latest microprocessors.
The company expects to begin delivering the updated version of the chipset to customers in late February and expects full volume recovery in April. For computer makers and other Intel customers that have bought potentially affected chipsets or systems, Intel will work with its OEM partners to accept the return of the affected chipsets, and plans to support modifications or replacements needed on motherboards or systems. The systems with the affected support chips have only been shipping since January 9th and the company believes that relatively few consumers are impacted by this issue. The only systems sold to an end customer potentially impacted are the latest Core i5 and Core i7 quad-core-based systems. Intel believes that consumers can continue to use their systems with confidence, while working with their computer manufacturer for a permanent solution.
For the first quarter of 2011, Intel expects this issue to reduce revenue by approximately $300 million as the company discontinues production of the current version of the chipset and begins manufacturing the new version. Full-year revenue is not expected to be materially affected by the issue. Total cost to repair and replace affected materials and systems in the market is estimated to be $700 million. Since this issue affected some of the chipset units shipped and produced in the fourth quarter of 2010, the company will take a charge against cost of goods sold, which is expected to reduce the fourth quarter gross margin percentage by approximately 4% from the previously reported 67.5%. The company will also take a charge in the first quarter of 2011, which will lower the previously communicated gross margin percentage by 2% points and the full-year gross margin percentage by one percentage point.

Holy Week is the week before Easter, a period which includes the religious holidays of Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. Holy week does not include Easter Sunday.
When did Holy Week get started?
The first recording of a Holy Week observance was made by Egeria, a Gallic woman who made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land about 381-384. In an account of her travels she wrote for a group of women back in Spain, Egeria describes the Palm Sunday she observed in Jerusalem:
. . . all the children who are [gathered at the top of the Mount of Olives], including those who are not yet able to walk because they are too young and therefore are carried on their parents' shoulders, all of them bear branches, some carrying palms, others, olive branches. And the bishop is led in the same manner as the Lord once was led.
What is Palm Sunday?
Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, an event mentioned in all four canonical Gospels. In many Christian churches, Palm Sunday includes a procession of the assembled worshipers carrying palms, representing the palm branches the crowd scattered in front of Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem. Because of the difficulty in some parts of the world of procuring palms for Palm Sunday, leaves from yew, willow, olive, or other native trees are frequently used. The Sunday was often designated by the names of these trees, as Yew Sunday, or by the general term Branch Sunday.
What is Spy Wednesday?
An archaic and infrequently used name for the Wednesday before Easter is "Spy Wednesday", named for Judas' becoming a spy for the Sanhedrin.
What is Maundy Thursday?

Is the Ibeam active the same as the passive with the endpin preamp being the difference?
I'm asking because I was thinking of changing my active to passive by changing out the endpin. I would then use my Baggs Para Acoustic Di instead of the onboard amp.
I'm thinking this could stop the feedback problem I'm having.

Despite a cool October, the USA is still on track to set the mark for warmest year on record.
Finally! The streak is broken.
After 16 consecutive warmer-than-average months, the USA had cooler-than-average temperatures in October, according to the monthly climate report from the National Climatic Data Center.
The average temperature of 53.9 degrees was 0.3 degrees below average.
The weather lowlight of the month was, of course, the devastation from Hurricane Sandy in the Northeast. The hurricane and the superstorm it morphed into killed more than 100 people as storm surge, wind, rain and snow hammered the region.
A report from global reinsurer Aon Benfield on Thursday put the storm's economic cost as high as $30 billion.
According to the climate center report, below-average temperatures stretched from the Canadian border to the Gulf of Mexico during October, with 19 states having monthly temperatures below average. The Southwest and the Northeast were the only two areas of the country with above-average temperatures.
Despite the cool month of October, the USA is still enduring its warmest year on record, so far: "The January-October period was the warmest first 10 months of any year on record for the contiguous U.S.," the climate center report noted. "The national temperature of 58.4 degree was 3.4 degrees above the 20th century average, and 1.1°F above the previous record warm January-October of 2000."
The USA will likely set the mark for warmest year on record.
Looking ahead to the winter, the Climate Prediction Center announced that El Nino has faded away. This despite earlier predictions that a weak El Nino would develop this fall and winter.
El Nino, a warming of tropical Pacific Ocean water, affects weather and climate in the USA and around the world, especially in winter.
With no El Nino, the center now expects that the "neutral" phase of what's called the El Nino-Southern Oscillation will develop, which is the middle phase between the warmer El Nino and cooler La Nina.

A life is lost, way too young
At only 9 years old, a girl known for being shy and sweet can't escape the flu's rare and deadly grip.
By ELISABETH DYER
Published April 20, 2007
Diana Lang's cell phone played a special ring tone April 12. Her daughter, Nichole, had programmed it months earlier as a reminder of her 10th birthday.
That was before she died Dec. 27 - of the flu.
Nichole was the first in Florida to die this season from the common but rarely deadly virus.
Nationwide, 41 children have died during the current flu season, which typically ends at the close of this month, said Curtis Allen, spokesman for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Flu-related deaths, he said, are "unusual."
Nichole had been healthy and was feeling fine until Dec. 23. Four days after that, she was gone. Her parents don't want to talk about her last days.
Three months later, her family, friends and classmates struggle to cope with the sudden and surprising loss of a little girl with a quick smile and a gentle heart.
Nichole's desk sits empty and bare at the middle of Lynn Heller's classroom at Dale Mabry Elementary School. The class decided to keep it as a silent memorial.
"She'll always be a member of our class," Heller says.
In the days following the tragedy, she reassured her students that Nichole's death was rare - not to fear it would happen to them if they got sick.
Still today, a student occasionally shares a memory of Nichole, and Heller cries. She tells her students: It's okay to be sad. It's okay to cry.
Another teacher framed a photo of Nichole taken in class and gave it to them.
"I asked the children, do we want to put it up now?" Heller remembered. "Some said we're not ready yet."
In March, they were finally ready. Now the photo sits on top of a bookshelf.
To honor her birthday, Nichole's father, Kevin Lang, built a garden outside Nichole's classroom, with a plaque that commemorates her life. The school held a candlelight vigil and a program for the event.
In the garden, classmates planted pink and purple flowers - Nichole's favorite colors.
- - -
Kevin remembers his daughter diving from his shoulders into the family's backyard pool on Price Avenue. She had been so courageous, he said.
It was those kinds of memories that he and his wife could no longer bear. They put their home up for sale and moved with their daughter, Jessica, to a rental on Corona Street.
People often asked if Jessica and Nichole were twins, although Jessica was three years older. Their mother devoted herself to their care, never working outside the home.
Diana remembers snapping photos of Nichole with her cell phone camera. Nichole would play psychiatrist as they waited in the car each day for Jessica to get out of school. She asked her mom questions:
How do you feel about dad?
How do you feel about the family dog Casey?
"She was my best friend," Diana said. "She was so beautiful."
The family always ate dinner together. When Diana made green soup - a vegetable blend the girls hated, but mom insisted they eat - their dad took them on midnight runs to McDonalds. They still save a place for Nichole at the table. In her memory, a chair is pushed against the wall so no one else will sit there.
The girls had their own rooms, but at night preferred to pile into the king-sized bed with mom and dad. They hugged each other in their sleep and snuggled with their parents.
Nichole loved to write notes, which her family still finds tucked in calendars and odds and ends that they moved to the new house.
One reads: Remember I'll always love you no mater what.
"I may not be the richest man," Kevin said. "But we were millionaires when it came to love.
"I drive around South Tampa for hours just crying and screaming to myself," Kevin said. He knows other drivers see him and wonder what's wrong, he said.
But the Langs are finding ways to cope.
They left Monday for a two-week mission to Israel with fellow members of Davis Islands Baptist Church. Diana hopes to find strength there.
"I'm looking for God," she said. "I've got to have faith that someday I'm going to see her in heaven."
- - -
At sunset on Nichole's birthday, dozens of children, their parents and faculty came to the school to celebrate her life. They ate yellow rice, chicken and pizza and lit candles.
In long flowing skirts, Nichole's sister, Jessica, and her cousin, Danielle, performed a Colombian dance that Nichole had danced with them during a program last year.
Nichole's father shared stories of his sweet, shy daughter. He told how she befriended lonely kids. How she followed her sister around and longed to one day travel the world.
As he spoke, photos of Nichole, often clutching her stuffed bear Tuco, flashed on a wall behind the garden and tears flowed.
She used to ask him, "Daddy, how much do you love me?"
He would reply: "Ah, just a little," both knowing the truth exceeded words.

Recruit, Retain, Retrain, Throughout Life
This page is based on the LTAD.ca website, the Irish LTPD, the RFU LTAD Booklet and our implementation for the Dutch Rugby Union: Meerjaren Opleidingsplan Rugby (MOR). You can download related pdf documents on the Free Download section of my website.
What to do if your playing career is over? Mine was pretty short, I picked up an achilles tendon injury and never recovered. Part of the recovery plan was to train and coach an under 16 team to stay involved with rugby. At 25 I decided to make coaching my next step in rugby.
With the 'Active for Life' phase in the LTAD model I am much more aware on the recruitment side of things. Players who have a fading interest in playing I now approach and involve in training and video evaluation. I find that those players are happy to stay involved on another level. Taking up a team on your own is a big step!

When I pulled no. 4 plug, it was wet. Also, I looked down the well and you could see the top of the piston was wet. After switching the wires and plugs, the problem remained at no. 4. So, I'm thinking Dave Beard is probably right in that maybe a piece of grip got in the carb and is holding the float open causing no. 4 carb to flood the cylinder while it's running. By the way, I haven't put a fuel filter on yet. Doh! schnowz wrote: Dave That would also be the case (2 cylinders not firing) for the wire if it was a bad connection eg green snot at the end of the wires where the copper wire used to be, because the 1 and 4 are in series. The only way it would be one cylinder, would be if it was a bad connection and also shorting to ground somewhere (bad insulation etc). You can also ohm out the leads and caps - the resistance is in the book IIRC. Though this will only test resistance of the wire/caps and won't necessarily tell you if you are getting high voltage leakage on the insulation. Only way to do that is swap the wires with a known good one and the cool header should move with the bad wire. If it's doing it only at small throttle openings I would also suspect the pilot circuit - carefully take out the pilot screw after putting a towel over the engine. Make sure you get the o ring out too. Squirt some carb cleaner in there and then follow with compressed air. You can get the screw out by placing a short screwdriver bit in a socket and turn the socket with your fingers (not a rachet - which is too big) Before taking it out screw it in carefully and count the turns to bottom out - when reinstalling - turn it to the same position as before. By the way a infrared thermometer fired at the exhaust headers are great for checkin which cylinders aren't firing.

"Turnaround" schools didn't turn very far, despite billions of dollars in School Improvement Grant (SIG) money, reports the U.S. Education Department. Two thirds of low-performing schools showed some improvement; one third got even worse. What Ed Week calls "mixed results," Andy Smarick labels "disappointing but completely predictable."
Twenty-five percent of schools made "double-digit" gains in reading and 15 percent in math, which could mean a 10 percent gain from a very low base, Smarick points out. "They are schools that went from really, really, really low-performing to really, really low-performing."
"Single-digit" gains — as little as 1 percent — were reported by 40 percent of schools in math and 49 percent in reading.
Yes, it's only the first year, but the first year is the easiest, writes Smarick.
Historically, schools subject to "turnaround" attempts are so low-performing that improvement efforts often see early gains. These schools are in such dire straits that initial quick-win efforts like instituting a school-wide curriculum or bringing a modicum of order to classrooms will bring about a bump in performance. The problem in the past has been sustaining and building on the gains made in year one. I can't recall a study of previous turnarounds that showed so many schools falling farther behind after interventions.
Some SIG schools were improving before they received the grants, but then slid back, notes Ed Week.
Twenty-six percent of schools in the program were on a trajectory to improve their math scores, but declined once they entered the SIG program, while 28 percent of schools where math scores had been slipping began to show improvement after getting the grant. In reading, 28 percent of schools that had been showing gains before SIG actually lost ground once they got the grant. A smaller percentage of schools, 25 percent, had been showing sluggish improvement in reading before the grant and began to improve once they got the funding.
So it looks like a wash — a very expensive wash.
Focus on elementary schools, where there's a chance of success, suggests RiShawn Biddle on Dropout Nation. Students are too far behind by middle school.
Unless the schools engage in intensive reading and math remediation with students, simply engaging in some curricula changes (and offering some additional training to laggard teachers) will do nothing to help these kids onto the path to college and career success.
Districts rarely pick SIG's strongest turnaround model, which calls for "shutting down dropout factories and failure mills, and then replacing them with traditional public and charter schools," Biddle writes.

At 05.30 this morning I was beginning my 8 miler - which was bloody good going as at 01.30 I was just getting back from the Tynedale Rugby Club Beer Festival.
I always get out early in the Summer months - but can't for the life of me run early mornings in the Winter
I get up 4.15 and go out at 4.30. When I get up, I normally have a cuppa tea andjust get my body going. But when I go out, the world is dead. No cars, no people.I live near to a country park which during the day is full of dogs and dimwits.But early morning, the park is closed and I can run. Brilliant right now with theextra daylight but its crap when its winter.
It can be hard getting out of bed, but if you want to run, then you have to force yourself out.
Yup up at 5.30am most mornings for a run. Nice in the summer not so nice in the winter.
But it get the day off to a good start.
When I was training for the marathon I was getting up at 5am for a 10 miler. It really is a different world out there and love it.
At the moment I'm just maintaining fitness so make sure I'm out the door by 6am but will get up earlier when I want to up my mileage.
I really don't see how people can run after work. After the 9-5 I just want to chill out.
I was out at 6am this morning - beautiful way to start the day
Would love to run early moning but some of us commute to London which means getting up at 5am for work anyway letting alone get up earlier for a run.
I have to do mine when I get home at 7pm. As you say it can be difficult and only take a delay getting away at work or the trains to find the evening is ruined and no run.
Up at 5:30 this morning to drive partway to work and then started to run the rest at 6:30.
The only problem I have is spending the first couple of miles trying to remember if I locked the car.
Mornings work for me too I'm usually up for 6am, which seems almost lazy compared to Dustin's & Becky's early starts.
I work flexi-time, so I've found that getting up at 6-6.30am every working day, sets my Body Clock, making it more of a routine, rather than a shock to the system. The alarm goes off & it's either a run or early start to work.
For every cold/wet morning that I doubt my sanity, there will be another when I see a lovely sunrise etc.
Plus, once I'm home & showered, the smug factor is worth it's weight in gold!
Can't get out after 3pm when off-spring at home, so all my runs, summer and winter done early - I have to be out of the door by 05 30, but luckily I'm an early morning person anyhow. Great, no-one around, in the summer, nice and cool, just have to change the routes in the winter so that I'm sticking to well-lit areas as we're semi-rural and out of the village, street lights and pavements disappear.
Lots more wildlife around too, only downfall - got hit by low-flying pheasant last autumn - not sure which was more alarmed by the incident.
great feedback from everybody -
Dustin & Becky you make me realise how lucky I am to be able to run early mornings
It is the best part of the day - the best early run I have done is an 8 miler which takes me along the coast over looking the sea beautiful at 5.30 in the morning -
I agree - think the thing is to get straight out of bed & out straight away strong cup of coffee & OUT - of course the other debate is should we be going out on an empty stomach ???
I always go out on an empty stomach and have never encountered any problems running up to and including 22 miles. Even when I run mid-day I don't run until 3 hours have elapsed since my last meal. Oherwise I feel pukey.
I don't take water out unless I'm going over 16 miles
I don't get UP at stupid o'clock (6.10am on a week day) but running knocks all normal time out so breakfast time is the only conventional one really...
6.10am - GET UP
7.00am - breakfast
3.00pm - lunch (i take it late so that when i get back the afternoon zooms by)
10.30 - 10.45pm - tea
11.30 - 12.30am - bed
no wonder i'm permanently exhausted.
True Christy - but I'd argue that this doesn't matter. Unless you're going to be very active between 17.00PM (Or in My case 19.30PM) and 05.30AM when you leave your pit behind, any energy you will have metabolised after your last meal will still be available to draw upon. I normally glug a pint of pure orange juice and water (Half and half and a pinch of salt) before I go out (Any more and I'll have to stop for a slash)
A sports nutritionist would probably throw their hands up in despair and tell me I'm wrong BTW, - but I rarely, if ever experience energy lags during long runs - I don't do jells because they taste like shite and make me feel really ill.
mmm Corinthian night time activities aside I take your point and as my aim is to loose weight then I will stick with my strong coffee cause I'm with you too much liquid is no good on a run!!

Appreciates story about longtime barber
To the editor:
We want to thank The Messenger and Hans Madsen for the article on our dad, Art Mason, and the Wahkonsa Barber Shop. He truly has been a dedicated downtown Fort Dodge businessman and through the years we have grown up with the "shop" as well. Experiencing downtown shopping in Fort Dodge always admiring the wedding dress showcased at Lilyan's, deciding on what we could get at McLellan's and then always stopping by the shop before we went home. Sometimes, on rare occasions, we would get to have dinner at the beautiful Wahkonsa Hotel restaurant. As we got older, we would stop in the shop after school and Dad always seemed to have change ready for us and our friends as he funded many cherry phosphate Cokes and fries at Constantine's. Some of the readers will remember those prices. Then there was the excitement many years ago when a deer somehow got into the hotel and ended up in the basement heading right for the shop (that is not a "barber shop" story, it's true). As the years have gone by, the pictures around the shop have expanded from kids, to the grandkids and now great grandkids and Dad proudly displays all of them. Not much will keep Dad from going to the shop. Even after a major heart surgery a few years ago, the first thing he asked the physician was when he could get back to work.
From the crewcuts to the buzz cuts to "just a little off the sides," Dad's customers at whatever age have enjoyed the sounds of the Big Band Music, the hunting mounts on the wall, not to mention a good story or two along the way. So for those of you who remember the beginning of this song, we say to Dad "Thanks for the memories … "

Hey there, new to this forum. As you can see.
I've recently purchased a new NXT cello from NS Design, ( http://thinkns.com/instruments/nxt_cello.php ) and I'm trying to juggle up which preamp I should get. (Either the Venue DI or the Gigpro)
I'll be using it to play at home, and also at my church through either the PA or my bass cab. Yet to decide.
Your help would be much appreciated!
Thanks heaps, Miles.

I know, I know ~ we hear it all the time:
you want the wind on your face and the sun on your back while visiting a tropical island like Cozumel. And what better way to do this than renting a little scooter to putz around the island right? True ~ and I would be all for it if it weren't so darn dangerous these days!
Since so many Cozumel visitors enjoy this mode of transportation, there are tons of moped rental agencies located in the downtown area, in hotel lobbies or streetside around the cruise ship piers so finding moped rentals should not be an issue for anyone. However, with the increasing number of mopeds, pedestrians, bicycles and cars on Cozumel's narrow streets it is becoming more and more dangerous to ride mopeds around the island especially for those not familiar with traffic flow and streets.
The DANGER of Using Mopeds on Cozumel Cannot be Overstated !
In fact, mopeds have become so dangerous that one of Cozumel's long time expats,
Sally Hurwitch
, regularly posts on the BB's her
Top Ten List
Cozumel Insider
is pleased to present it here
with Sally's permission
Sally's Top Ten Reasons to Pass on Renting a Moped in Cozumel
day people are "scraped up" off the roads of Cozumel as a result of a moped accident. Some only suffer some road rash, which is bad enough to ruin a vacation. Others go home in a box.
Fast moving taxi drivers trying to get as many people to as many destinations per hour as possible.
Mopeds do not have the power to accelerate out of a potentially dangerous situation.
Roads have occasional patches of gravel for no reason.
There are other tourists on scooters who don't know how to drive them.
Scooters have a short wheel base which makes them difficult to maneuver.
There are other tourists in rental cars who have just been to Carlos 'n' Charlie's.
Beautiful vistas take your breath away, as well as your attention off the road.
Most roads are one way, except when they're not.
Moped brakes are not always reliable.
Most north-south roads have the right-of-way.....with some exceptions.
Get the picture?
So spend a little extra, surround yourself with metal and rent a car!
Sally Hurwitch
Couple of Other Considerations Before Taking the Plunge on Mopeds!
First, while we at INSIDER offer many things to help travelers enjoy their vacations on the island and for sure we could earn a small fortune assisting folks to reserve mopeds in advance, we simply do not do it. With so many years on the island, I've seen more than my fair share of moped accidents both in town and out on the highways of Cozumel. I carry a First Aid Kit and protective gloves in my car that gets used constantly and most especially in high season for moped crashes.
Second, what locals know but tourists rarely do, is that Cozumel is experiencing a crime wave with regard to moped thefts. Island crime statistics in 2014 indicate that on average 10 (ten) mopeds a day are REPORTED stolen which means even more are actually occurring. Because it's a well known statistic throughout Mexico that due to the ineffectiveness of police investigations and such, over 90% of crime in Mexico goes unreported. If your rented moped ends up being one of those taken, you'll end up paying the deductible IF you opted for insurance.
Be very careful of your surroundings if you choose to rent one, and by all means
wear a helmet and take the moped key with you whenever you stop!
After an afternoon thunderstorm, the lack of drainage in the streets coupled with the oil on the streets creates a very slick road. Its not advisable to ride a moped during these conditions.

Put Honeywell on Your Radar
The nation's monetary policies are entrusted to the Federal Reserve . On Tuesday, Chairman Ben Bernanke urged Congress and the Obama administration to strike a budget deal to abort the looming possibility of tax increases and spending cuts that could lead to a recession next year.
Without compromise and a series of legal deals, the dreaded outcome often referred to as the "fiscal cliff" will take effect come January. Uncertainty about all these issues appears to be discouraging spending, new investment and troubling investors, the Fed chairman said in a speech to the Economic Club of New York.
Putting an end to the fiscal crisis would prevent a sudden and severe shock to the economy, help reduce unemployment and strengthen growth, he said. "A stronger economy will, in turn, reduce the deficit and contribute to achieving long-term fiscal sustainability," Bernanke told the group.
Sounds like Chairman Bernanke is turning up the heat on lawmakers and the President, and putting all investors on notice the economy is already experiencing turbulence. This may be code for "when the fiscal cliff threat is resolved, the Federal Reserve will open the monetary spigots."
That said, there's good news for investors who hold or want to buy shares of Honeywell (HON) . In a recent video released by Bloomberg, we learned Honeywell has created a radar technology designed to save the airline industry a fortune.
Bad weather is responsible for 70% of cancelled flights, costing the airline industry an estimated $8 billion a year. HON's new equipment will quickly detect severe weather and its concomitant turbulence, thus reducing the associated dangers involved with sudden, unexpected encounters.
The idea is that by installing a storm-detecting radar system made by Honeywell, flights can literally avoid or bypass powerful storm clouds that can cause flight delays and costly cancellations. This new equipment can detect the menacing storm cell up to ten minutes before the plane would make contact.
Jim Cramer and Stephanie Link actively manage a real money portfolio for his charitable trust- enjoy advance notice of every trade, full access to the portfolio, and deep coverage of the latest economic events and market movements.
To buy this state-of-the-art equipment would cost an airline between $50,000 and $125,000 per plane. But when one considers that weather-related turbulence costs an average of $275,000 per incident, this technology could save an airline millions of dollars per year in maintenance costs alone.
The company claims this is the first aeronautical equipment that detects where hail, lightening and high winds are located in a weather system. Planes can maneuver around storm cell clouds thus avoiding the potential for damaging turbulence and the potential for flight delays and cancellations.

KAZA may help lift people out of poverty and protect one of the last, large-scale ecosystems on the continent.later, after Namibia and Botswana agreed to open a strategic 22-mile gap in a maze of border and veterinary fencing (keeping wild buffalo or infected cattle from contaminating Botswana's herds), Chase counted 8,000. Bull elephants had scouted Angola's thinly-populated southern reserves, found conditions to their liking, and returned to northern Botswana to lead herds home to Angola. Once there, they skirted landmines, having perhaps learned through bitter experience how to sniff them out. Their message was clear: Give us a way back, and we will come.
Such peace parks are dismissed by one academic as another 'grandiose scheme foisted upon Africa.'and supporting colleges to train wildlife rangers and tourism staff. Progress has not been without pitfalls: The group was vilified for its high-handed, top-down approach as it expanded South Africa's Kruger National Park into Mozambique. While peace parks are dismissed by one Cape Town academic as another "grandiose scheme... foisted upon Africa," there are now 10 in the region, with four more in the planning stage, ranging north to Tanzania.
Recent surveys show a 90-percent decline in wildebeest and other wildlife in northern Botswana.it has acquired its own acronym: "HEC." In 2010, wild elephants rampaged through a southern Angolan settlement, trampling houses and farms and sending some 4,000 people over the border into Namibia, which had 11 people killed by elephants that same year. Throughout KAZA, farmers are learning to exploit every imaginable elephant deterrent, from vuvuzelas (plastic horns) to chile bombs, a mixture of dried elephant dung and peppers that is burned to create a stinging, smoke haze. Namibia has initiated payments for crop damage and funeral costs, while emphasizing that conflict cannot always be avoided.

I am starting with a look back into an article that remains timely in this day and age, Garret Hardin's 1968 piece called "The Tragedy of the Commons." Many decades ago, I graduated from Colorado College with a degree focusing on bionomics. My thesis," Towards a Resourced Based Bionomic Society", was written before computers, so an IBM Selectric with correcting tape got pounded hard as 126 pages of double spaced type were created, using many hundreds of draft pages, literally cutting and pasting with scissors and tape to make the manuscript flow. When I see what my kids can do now, that old sense of in my day "I had to walk uphill to school in snow" flashes, before I give thanks to the way I can now write thoughts and ideas on a computer screen, and not waste paper in my errors.
Later on, my Encylopedia of Volleyball was written on a rooftop in Camogli, Italy, using an Olivetti typewriter of course, while I was in the country playing professionally along with my wife Laurel Brassey. She was a member of the 1980 Olympic boycotted team who qualified for Moscow, and we lived in a magical place, a penthouse apartment, 22 Via del Isola....built almost 1,000 years ago (I live in a house built in 1899 now, and my kids think it is ancient...), our clothesline attached out the bathroom window to a 1,200 year old castle wall. Camogli is a blend of two Italian words, Casa (home) and Mogli (wife) as it was a fishing village for centuries where the men would go to sea, and leave all their wives at home. If you get over there, the town right on the Mediterranean Sea, southeast of Genoa, just one train stop ahead of the better known town of Portofino. The magic of Facebook means now several of my former teammates are my "friends" and we get to see how each other is faring some 25 years later. I am happy to see Paulo, our setter, is growing the game by coaching, and others have children who are playing this sport for a lifetime.
I made the jump to a computer when Jim Coleman and I bought Kaypro "portable" computers. Using the CPM operating system, Jim had a dual 512K floppy version, while I splurged and bought the 10 megabyte hard drive. These devices weighed 30lbs, and were suitcase sized, with a 5 ¼" green phosphor screen. Using Wordstar, I wrote coaching articles for the National Development Camps and many other groups, which I still reference today. As Moore's law moves along ahead of schedule, I now find myself owning 1 TB drives, and using an ITouch to check email, listen to music, watch movies, and have 32 GB in device that I can hold in the palm of my hand - using a color screen that is about 4 x 2" - not that much smaller of a screen than my Kaypro, but more powerful by about 5 factors of 10. Amazing, yet more amazing things are happening on the horizon, you only need to go to http://www.wired.com/ and see what the future might bring.
So that long historical introduction, brings me simply to the impact I felt when reading Garret Hardin's piece back in the early 1970s. It comes to mind in part as we at USAV are dealing with spam and the creative ways spammers attempt to force you to read their mass emails. Just this week, our filters were getting so strong, words like "document," and phrases like "If kids" are being blocked, for reasons that took us awhile to determine why. I think all coaches should read about the Tragedy of the Commons as part of background in Game Theory - and while you can google it up, I suggest starting with Wikipedia's entry at:
This comes to mind in part because of the work the Positive Coaching Alliance is doing in creating such great National Conversations on Good Coaching. The most recent one is on "Working the Refs" and can be read and commented on by clicking here. It also shows insights into why A-Rod and so many other sportspeople enhance their own body through chemicals as the US Anti Doping Agency and the World Anti Doping Agency fight to keep up with these physical, and illegal, enhancements. USADA has some great reading material free of charge which you can print, use, hand out to your programs, especially in their "Clean Sport and You" program. Some solid optimal Dietary intake information, and interesting ethical topics and more can be found at:
Off to Iowa in a couple of days to speak with over 300 coaches at their State Volleyball Coaching clinic put on by Championship Productions. I am coming in early, to work with the Iowa RVA on some boys development projects, and whatever else they think we can do to grow the game while I am local. Mary Wise is speaking too, always a treat to hear her thoughts on the game. Thanks for all you do to help athletes have a great time playing volleyball and learning life skills to boot.

@Brandon, it definitely should be part of the codex, but even if/when it does get added, that doesn't ensure people are going to adhere to it. There are plenty of rules that are in place now that aren't upheld by authors. But I agree it would be a good start.
I wish it's that simple. Take a look at what shortcodes ultimate plugin spews in the admin
As much as I'd love the idea of having the users contacting the plugin author when something like that happens, as the person who recommended the plugin in the first place, I will be inevitably held responsible for it – and they will blame me. And I will have to dive into the plugin and find out what's wrong with it, contact the author so he can fix it and yada yada
Just to clarify, the Theme Review page on the Codex does have a guideline referring to this discussion exactly. It's pretty high up on the list of guidelines.
Presentation Vs. Functionality: Since the purpose of Themes is to define the presentation of user content, Themes must not be used to define the generation of user content, or to define Theme-independent site options or functionality.
As a guideline, that's a great catchall rule and it allows the team some flexibility when new things come up. But, it's not very specific about what those things are.
What I'd like to see on the Codex is an independent page that goes into greater detail about what this actually means.

Thanks J! I totally agree – I saw that before my last couple comments and I felt like it could be explained in more specific terms… that statement technically covers everything discussed here, but its vague enough that, on a page full of dev text, people gloss over it as lawyer speak. A few for-instances would help give that line-item some teeth IMO … ie:
"... This includes placing shortcodes or custom post types inside themes. To be crystal clear: Content generation tools like these should be placed in plugins instead. See this page for more information on what goes in a theme and what goes in a plugin. [Link]"
Then have that link direct to a page that really digs into this discussion (not just the rules, but the philosophy behind separating the two and why it's fundamental to the entire platform's health).
In any event, I'm stoked that everyone towards the end of this thread is in agreement that this needs to be enforced in a wider capacity. As Mike said, this is simple stuff once it's explained that "just because you can do something in a theme doesn't mean that you should.
I've read through every posting on this thread and it strikes me that the spirit in which WordPress was created is all but extinguished on a lot of TF authors. It doesn't behoove us to open the GPL > commerce discussion here after riding the repeatedly buried and exhumed dead horse of functionality placement in themes or plugins. However, I do see a connection here with the GPL and some TF authors.
On this thread there are several stalwart advocates for isolationism within their own micro theme ecosystem. Keeping everything proprietary and giving users a take-it-or-leave-it presentation seems to be security for them. The heavens forbid that an abstracted plugin might be forked and decrease revenues. The masses shutter at the very thought that a user would ever ever ever desire to install, let alone activate another theme. If we think our products are irreplaceable, we fool ourselves.
My manifesto is: build it right and they will come. When someone is passionate about building great things, their finger prints are all over their products. A fork rarely translates the author's original passion and intent for the product. If someone forks your work, there's a profoundly great chance they won't make it better than you can make it because they don't 'own' it and probably won't support it. If a TF author keeps building great USABLE products that scale well for future growth, USERS will come and come back and won't mind rewarding with revenues.
Instead of discounting the value of a user and their sanity simply to embolden a stance on securing revenues, build loyalty with freedom of choice. At the end of the day, users do have a choice. If a product restricts them and creates nightmarish migration scenarios, an author shouldn't expect a repeat customer.
One thing I've learned about the WordPress community (users and developers alike) is that we rally around great products and promote them whether commercial or not. We don't take kindly to someone forking code for the explicit purpose of financial gain without setting a new course for the codebase.
WordPress is not an off-the-shelf product, it's a community. Instead of building cinderblock walls around your micro theme ecosystem, start engaging the macro community by using accepted best practices. Give the user not only what they want, but what they NEED and it might even increase revenues. Users need scalability and consistency across the board of WP products.
That's my two cents.
—-Burying the horse again now—-
Our intention is not having buyers to sign a life contract with us when selling them our theme and we're defo not against a clear separation of functions/presentation in plugins/themes.
What we think it will never work here is each author shipping his own custom plugins to handle shortcodes and cpts, meaning plugin from author A not being compatible with ones from author B because of different names/parameters and so on. How the hell this is supposed to make buyers life simple is beyond me.
Now this thread kinda evolved since the original opener posted his question and the above situation is very different from all (or most) authors using the same plugins. Which do not exists yet or, at the very least, there's not a general agreement between authors on which ones should be used.
I can see this happening on TF only if Envato release such plugins on wp.org itself, providing support and keeping them updated with authors being able to give feedback on bugs and request missing features.
Then a "Compatible with Envato $coolname" option would be added to item page, allowing users to filter the set and only show compatible themes. When buyers know they can switch between any of them with minimal (if any) pain, they will most likely pick one of those instead of a "franken-theme" and you'd slowly create a trend.
More and more authors will join the club, not because a rule forces them to but only because not doing it may cost them sales.
What a great thread! Thanks so much to the OP for starting it off, to Justin for getting involved, and to Brandon for bringing it to my attention.
This is the sort of thing we've been trying to encourage through Wptuts+. We have articles encouraging people to utilise the WP.org theme review process, a screencast on using the TGM Plugin Activation class, and a recent article from Pippin on filters and actions in your code.
I also recently wrote a blog post titled 'Problems with themes on ThemeForest, are problems with themes' in response to a tweet from Carl about some of this stuff.
When you look at it, these issues are general WordPress community issues. Some of them may stem from things that happen here at ThemeForest. Given the size of this marketplace, and the number of people who encounter the problems outside ThemeForest, the issue needs to anexe both.
So I've emailed the theme reviewer mailing list about getting some of these sorts of things added to the Theme-Check plugin where appropriate. I mean, if it shouldn't be happening here, it shouldn't be happening. Then ThemeForest authors can use Theme-Check and get clear messages on what they should / shouldn't be doing. Also, our review team use Theme-Check, so a consistent test is being applied.
Documentation in the Codex is great, but utilising tools like Theme-Check is good too, because as the plugin is updated, authors are automatically conforming to any new guidelines.
I'm excited about this discussion, and I want us to keep the momentum up and get some resolution. I've been having meetings this week, and more next week, to discuss these issues here at Envato too and what can be done.
Also, I wanted to note that I will most likely be attending the WordPress Community Summit this year, and will definitely be raising these sorts of issues for general discussion!
Interesting thread.
The status, as it is now is a result of what Brandon named "Nuclear arms race" – each new theme must have zillion shortcodes/options/etc. to compete in the marketplace. This will stay like this as long unless reviewers promise that lack of shortcodes won't influence the theme price.
I agree that shortcodes should be bundled/used with content, not presentation. But there are some cases where this is simply not possible: for example, column shortcodes. Theme A uses 12 columns grid, theme B uses 16 columns grid. Make shortcodes work in both? I don't think so.
Can't believe nobody mentioned so called layout builders? These lock-down content to the theme even more, but I can hardly see any buyers complaining about this. In fact, some themes with this feature are top-sellers.

Would you be able to explain why you think Theme-Check is a joke? Comments like that without qualification don't add much to the discussion. We need to know the problem before we can find the solution.

You can't rely on a simple regex text search to unveil the intentions of the theme code, can't you? Thing is – code is much more complex than this. Therefore, this plugin can be considered as a joke, or a dumb tool.http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/timthumb-script-and-theme-check-plugin/48408?page=1#447753 http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/code-quality-on-themeforest-items/67178?page=7#594200 http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/cant-find-thumbsdb/73196?page=1#635811 http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/theme-check-infos-errors/67715?page=1#596061
