I've noticed a bit of a disturbing pattern of late in my cloud discussions with clients. They have been talking about hybrid cloud in the future tense. If you are planning for hybrid down the road, I have a wake up call for you. Too late, you are already hybrid.
If your company has even a single SaaS application in use today I can almost gurantee you it's connected to something inside your data center giving you hybrid cloud. So hybrid isn't a future state after you have a private cloud in place and IT Ops chooses to connect that private cloud to a public cloud. Look at it through the lens of a business process or application service which is composed of different components, some cloud-based, some on-premise. From an Infrastructure & Operations perspective, hybrid cloud means a cloud service connected to any other corporate resource (a back office app, your web site, your intranet, another SaaS app you have under contract and yes, even your private cloud). Any of these types of connections presents the same integration impact - whether you established the connection or not. If you are like the typical enterprise, that answered our Forrsights Q4 2012 Software Survey, then you have more than six SaaS applications in place today (that you know about) so cloud integration is likely well in place today. And about one third of the developers who responded to our Forrsights Q1 2013 Developer Survey said they have already deployed applications to the public cloud. Twenty-five percent also admitted to putting application integrations in place.

"This is a credible, responsible and comprehensive framework for addressing the nation's growing debt burden, which will reach unsustainable levels if no action is taken," Bob Bixby, executive direction of the Concord Coalition, said in a statement.
"It cuts through partisan rhetoric and confronts the hard trade-offs that must be made between spending, taxes and debt. For those who are afraid to 'go first,' it offers a way forward," Bixby said.

By Rob Kelly
Arsène Wenger believes that the signing of Lukas Podolski will help remove the goalscoring burden from Robin van Persie next season.
The Arsenal manager recently admitted that at times this year his side have been over-reliant on their free-scoring captain.
But Wenger says Podolski - who has scored 43 times in 95 appearances for Germany - will provide high-quality support for the Gunners captain.
"[He was on our radar] for a long time," he told Arsenal Player. "He is a versatile striker - he can play through the middle, behind the striker, up front, on the left and on the right.
"That's what we like, and he can score goals as well. How many times have we been accused this season of being too reliant on Robin van Persie? He can score goals and provide, and he is the class that we want.
"He can fit with Robin van Persie through the middle or on the sides. That is for sure. That was an important part of the decision making [about signing him]."
Wenger has no concerns about Podolski adapting to life at Arsenal, despite a disappointing spell at Bayern Munich earlier in his career.
"He has gained experience," he said. "First of all, Bayern are massive in Germany. Maybe he was too young when he went there.
"He has 95 caps for Germany at 26 years of age - you don't get that if you are not a top-quality player. He had a great World Cup as well, and we have played against him and you can see he is a very intelligent player. That is what attracted us to him, basically."

How much ACV for a gallon of syrup?

...But feeding syrup or honey or anything with sugar in it will clear up Nosema...
but the pH of syrup with cider vinegar would be higher than syrup
The upside is it's an antimicrobial which means it will kill Nosema. The downside is it's a antimicrobial which means it will kill the healthy bacteria in the bees' gut and in the pollen that needs to ferment in order to be digestible. The other downside is a "feed stimulant" also acts as a "robbing stimulant".
http://rnoel.50megs.com/letter9.htm this will not work on my phone but I have the letter saved on my work computer if you want to see itYou might have seen this it's part of the studies the maker of hbh did with the university of west virgina. http://rnoel.50megs.comAnd the uwv site also has good infoI use lemongrass spearmint wintergreen and tea tree. Spearmint and wintergreen areFor mites tea tree is for nosema.Lemongrass is just for taste.
I did Google "nanetti varroa" until I found something in English that I could read. Very interesting and read worthy. My colony is new and no problems so far. Thanks for the tip Finski but why do you always seem to come across like everyone else is stupid and doing things wrong and you are the only one who knows how to do it right? Is it just me?

Dead dog receives voter registration form; MSM blames 'voter ID laws'
posted at 11:52 am on June 19, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
Call it a variation on a theme: Dogs have been registered to vote, and so have dead people—so why not a dead dog?
Roanoke, Va., NBC affiliate WSLS reports that Tim Morris, a resident of the town of Goodview, was surprised when he opened a recent piece of mail and found it contained voter registration forms for "Mo" (h/t Matt Drudge).
Morris claims that he laughed, initially thinking it was all a prank. That is because Mo was the family's nickname for their poodle, Mozart, who has been dead for two years.
"He would have been 19 years old this year and he passed away two years ago," Morris told reporters. "I still have no earthly idea how they got his information."
That piece of the puzzle is hinted at later in the broadcast:
10 On Your Side looked deeper and found that the voter registration forms were sent by the non-profit Voter Participation Center, not the State Board of Elections. [Emphasis added]
So we contacted the Voter Participation Center and found that they purchase mailing lists from vendors and while they do try and check every name the organization admits that some do fall through the cracks.
The voter registration efforts are focused on groups like young people, minorities, and unmarried women.
But there is another element to the story that smacks ofmedia bias. Watch the lead-in to the video on this page, and notice how the anchor introduces the segment. She begins by stating that a Virginia mandate requiring that voters present a photo ID at the polls "has led to an interesting situation." She even mentions Gov. Bob McDonald, a Republican, by name in connection with the snafu, pointing out that McDonald signed the legislation just last month.
But the Voter Participation Center (VPC), which the report admits was responsible for the mix-up, is in no way associated with the passage of the voter ID law—and in factstands vigorously opposed to such laws. It is their actions, not the new law, that created the "interesting situation" detailed in the segment.
Notice also that while the anchor describes VPC as "non-profit," she conveniently omits the fact that it leans heavily left in its politics, as can be ascertained by perusing theheadings and openings paragraphs of the group's recent news releases.

salmela architect, duluth, minn.
The design of this house nestled between pond and marsh is all about controlling views. The site looks remote, but the hitherto "unbuildable" lot is actually wedged into a cluster of homes ringing a communal pond. A dark plinth, made from custom-fabricated oversized concrete blocks, anchors two ethereal white boxes to the ground. Despite the apparent heft of the structure, says David Salmela, FAIA, what he's designed is essentially a glass house.
There are windows everywhere, he explains, worked in around the concrete block and glulam columns. And they're strategic—glazed end pieces use vertical wood slats to subtly obscure views. Where necessary, the view is blocked entirely—Galvalume-clad walls on the building's long axis provide privacy from a too-close neighbor. Our judges praised this dance of solid and void for its "halting, mysterious quality. It's not about the tectonics, it's about the Scandinavian aura of light." The architecture may be bold, but Salmela wanted the structure to rest humbly on its verdant site. Only one tree was sacrificed, despite a footprint that spans setbacks from edge to edge. Eco-conscious materials—concrete block with flyash, SIPs, reclaimed cypress, and insulated glass—create a simple kit of parts elegantly assembled. Inside, golden-hued wood floors and trim imbue the minimalist space with welcoming warmth.
Salmela credits Minnesota's Scandinavian roots for the ready acceptance of contemporary designs such as his. "Architecture should have a purity and cleanness to it, but it doesn't need to be cool," he says.

Latest test results from Great Britain suggest more than 120,000 11 year-old students are unable to read, write, and add up properly. According to the tests, about one in five children fail to make the grade in English and even more are unable to reach the required standards in math. However, teachers disagree with test results and their complaints range from having students coached to obtain higher test scores to the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) which claims to have been flooded with more than 300 emails from schools highlighting examples of maladministration and inaccuracies in grading. Government officials insist tests are accurate indicators of what students are learning while most schools claim they will retest students in the fall because they have lost confidence in the ability of tests to provide accurate information as to the learning levels of students.
Most teachers agree student performance has led to higher scores due to coaching for the test but they are upset tests come in May and then there is a drop off in anyone teaching children.
If teachers are professionals they should be accorded the same respect and confidence one has for doctors. They work with each child over a hundred days and any competent teacher has a fair grasp as to the learning ability of students in their class. It is time to trust teachers.

Hybrid is a word that we usually reserve for cars, dogs, and tomatoes.
But an exciting new type of hybrid is exactly what was announced yesterday. The University of Toronto will acquire Canada's most powerful supercomputer from IBM, a hybrid. This architecture, an innovative design containing iDataPlex and POWER6 clusters, will process up to 360 trillion calculations per second.
And it is wonderfully ironic that this efficient and flexible new system, housed in a new ultra energy-efficient datacenter, will be used for many great research projects including greenhouse gas-induced global warming.
P.S. Still waiting on my very green and small tomatoes.

Where I live, it seems to be mostly dark and cold this time of year. So it's especially welcome to see all the glimmering glowing holiday lights.
IBM just announced a major breakthrough in the quest to send data between multiple cores on a chip using pulses of light through silicon. This nanophotonic work could significantly reduce cost, energy and heat while increasing communications bandwidth between the cores more than a hundred times over wired chips.
This new technology, which now stars in its very own YouTube video, would connect thousands of cores together on a tiny chip. That's right, thousands of cores. And the supercomputer on the chip would use the energy of one light bulb that is now part of your holiday decorations.

TV series capture growing audience
04/07/2012 , 4:33 PM by Meri Fatin
Great TV series are grabbing the hearts and minds of adult cinema goers like never before. In a segment normally dedicated to film, reviewer Mark Naglazas put forward a substantial case for staying home.
Mark gave examples like Mad Men, The Sopranos, The West Wing, Veep, Louis CK and Curb Your Enthusiasm as good reason to don the ugg boots and a bag of nuts for a great night in. Let us know about your favourite TV series and listen back here.
You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed for this post.
I have enjoyed reading Mark's film reviews over the years even though I consider most movies emanating from the Hollywood production line to be unsuitable for people over 30 years of age. Fair dinkum, I have seen better films from just about anywhere on SBS; these films usually have no-name actors and deal with all manner of issues in the human experience.
Regards, Rob

The type of treatment you receive for spinal stenosis may vary, depending on the location of the stenosis and the severity of your signs and symptoms.
To control pain associated with spinal stenosis, your doctor may prescribe:
It's common for people who have spinal stenosis to become less active, in an effort to reduce pain. However, that can lead to muscle weakness, which can result in more pain. A physical therapist can teach you exercises that may help:
Your nerve roots may become irritated and swollen at the spots where they are being pinched. Injecting a corticosteroid into the space around that constriction can help reduce the inflammation and relieve some of the pressure. However, steroid injections don't work for everyone. And repeated steroid injections can weaken nearby bones and connective tissue, so only a few injections a year are suggested.
Surgery may be considered if more conservative treatments haven't helped or if you're disabled by your symptoms.
The goal is to relieve the pressure on your spinal cord or nerve roots by creating more space within the spinal canal. Examples include:
In most cases, these space-creating operations help reduce spinal stenosis symptoms. But some people's symptoms stay the same or get worse after surgery. Surgical risks include infection, a tear in the membrane that covers the spinal cord, a blood clot in a leg vein and neurological deterioration.

Tar Heels In the NBA Update
by Megan Morketter, GoHeels.com
North Carolina has an all-time high of 17 former Tar Heels playing in the NBA this season, many of whom are playing key roles with a variety of teams. GoHeels.com will update Carolina fans on a weekly basis on how UNC alums have played in the last week.
Harrison Barnes, Golden State Warriors: Barnes had a solid performance Dec. 5 as the Warriors took on the Detroit Pistons. The forward posted 10 points, five rebounds and three assists in the 104-97 win. Barnes added nine points and nine rebounds along with six assists over the following two games.
Vince Carter, Dallas Mavericks: Carter carried his double-digit scoring streak into the beginning of last week, putting up 16 points and seven rebounds in the Mavericks loss to the L.A. Lakers. Dipping below the mark against the Phoenix Suns, the guard jumped back to the double digits two days later with 12 points and five rebounds as the Mavericks bested the Houston Rockets.
Ed Davis, Toronto Raptors: Recording his second double-double of the season, Davis scored 13 points and brought down 11 rebounds when facing the Sacramento Kings Dec. 5. In the previous game against the Denver Nuggets, the forward posted numbers across the board with six points, nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block.
Wayne Ellington, Memphis Grizzlies: The fourth year veteran knocked down 3-of-4 shots from the field for eight points as the Grizzlies fell to the Atlanta Hawks, 93-83.
Raymond Felton, New York Knicks: Felton set a new season high in the 20-point win over the Miami Heat, scoring 27 points. The point guard matched this record in the Knicks following game against the Chicago Bulls. In the close loss, Felton also set season highs in free throws made and attempted (8-9) as well as rebounds, with five.
Danny Green, San Antonio Spurs: The guard/forward had a record-setting game against the Charlotte Bobcats. Green sunk a career-high seven three-pointers and added one more field goal for a total of 23 points. This season high fell one point short of tying Green's career high. The Spurs defeated the Bobcats, 132-102.
Tyler Hansbrough, Indiana Pacers: Though mostly quiet throughout the week, Hansbrough put up solid numbers off the bench in last Wednesday's game against the Portland Trailblazers. The forward/center managed 10 points and grabbed five rebounds as the Pacers held on for the win.
Brendan Haywood, Charlotte Bobcats: The big man had trouble converting last week but fared slightly better on the defensive end of the floor. Across his last three games, Haywood recorded six points and brought down 15 rebounds.
John Henson, Milwaukee Bucks: Playing just eight minutes over the Bucks' last two games, Henson had few scoring opportunities. The forward was held to two points and two rebounds, all coming from his most recent game against the Bobcats.
Antawn Jamison, L.A. Lakers: The veteran forward continued to post impressive numbers as the Lakers faced the Rockets and New Orleans Hornets last week. Jamison put up 15 points in both contests, adding nine rebounds and a season-high three blocks in the two-point loss to the Rockets.
Ty Lawson, Denver Nuggets: Lawson led his team in points, with a season-high 32, as the Nuggets took on the Hawks Dec. 5. The point guard went 5-for-5 from beyond the arc and sank seven more shots for a career-high 12 field goals made.
Kendall Marshall, Bakersfield Jam: Not seeing much playing behind two veteran point guards, Marshall was transferred to the Bakersfield Jam, the Suns' developmental team. The rookie point guard has averaged more than 32 minutes per game. With 11 points and 10 rebounds in the win over the L.A. D-Fenders, Marshall recorded his first career double-double.
Jerry Stackhouse, Brooklyn Nets: In his 18th year in the NBA, Stackhouse is still playing long minutes. He recorded 30 minutes against the Oklahoma City Thunder, and in that time the forward/guard contributed eight points and four assists.
Rasheed Wallace, New York Knicks: Wallace struggled from three-point range against the Heat, but still managed 12 points and seven rebounds. The Knicks went on the win, 112-92.
Marvin Williams, Utah Jazz: Coming back from what was deemed "concussion-like symptoms," Williams scored eight points and brought down four rebounds versus the Orlando Magic. In the 32-point win over the Raptors, the forward posted 14 points.
Brandan Wright, Dallas Mavericks: After being benched for poor performance, Wright made his presence known this past week, recording season high numbers in multiple categories. The center/forward played 30 minutes against the Rockets (season high) and logged eight points along with three assists (season high). In his previous game, facing the Suns, Wright tallied eight field goals for 16 points (both season highs).
Tyler Zeller, Cleveland Cavaliers: Zeller found his way to the basket consistently on both ends of the court in last week's games. The center/forward posted 28 points and grabbed 22 rebounds over the Cavaliers' previous three games.

David's research focuses on race inequalities in education, especially the role of racism as a changing and complex characteristic of the system. He has written 6 books and more than 140 refereed articles, chapters and reports that range from original studies in classrooms and with teachers, through national reviews of research evidence in the field, to analyses of the changing policy landscape internationally. He is closely associated with the approach known as 'Critical Race Theory' and, in 2012, received the Derrick Bell Legacy Award; the highest honor possible from the US-based Critical Race Studies in Education Association (CRSEA). In 2015 David was made a Laureate of Kappa Delta Pi (KDP), the US-based International Honor Society in Education.

Feedback and office hours Please contact David directly, via email, to arrange the most convenient time to meet. Qualifications Ph. D. Sociology of Education, University of Nottingham (1987) BA (Hons) Sociology of Education, University of Nottingham (1983) Biography Professor Gillborn's first full-time job in higher education was as a Lecturer in Education at the University of Sheffield. After a spell as a research fellow, working closely with Jean Rudduck and John Gray, he moved to the Institute of Education, University of London, in the Department of Policy Studies led by Geoff Whitty. Geoff went on to become Director of the Institute while David became a Reader in Sociology of Education (1996) and then a Professor (in 2000). After almost 20 years at the Institute, David moved to Birmingham in 2012. Despite having worked in the North and South, David remains a committed Midlander with a season ticket to the City Ground and an unshakeable belief that Nottingham Forest FC will once again reign supreme. Teaching David Gillborn's teaching is closely allied to his research interests in Critical Race Theory and countering inequities in education. In particular, he focuses on education policy and the construction of race inequality; the complex and changing nature of racism(s) in educational practice; research methods and controversies in race scholarship. David currently teaches on the courses Education Policy & Social Justice, Identity, Politics and Everyday Life, and Researching Education. Postgraduate supervision David supervises doctoral students working on a wide range of issues, usually with a focus on the construction of educational inequalities through policy and practice. Past projects include the transmission of educational values in the parenting of Black British families; a study of medical education; the schooling experiences of academically successful African Caribbean students; assessment practices in Early Years education; and ethnographic studies of class, race, gender and disability in the everyday life of schools. Research Race, Racism and Education: inequality, resilience and reform in policy and practice David is principal investigator for this 2 year project, funded by the Society for Educational Studies. The project combines two key elements; first, a quantitative analysis of statistical data to provide the first-ever authoritative picture of the changing landscape of educational achievement and experience in relation to ethnic diversity over the 20 year span since the murder of Stephen Lawrence. Second, drawing on links with policy-makers, advisors and race equality advocacy groups, the research team will use ethnographic interviews to explore the processes by which policy was formed, contested, and re-modelled during this unique period. The Educational Strategies of the Black Middle Class Funded by the Economic & Social Research Council this project explores how Black Middle Class parents view the education of their children. The research extends understandings of class/race intersectionality in the lives of parents, children and schools. Carol Vincent is Principal Investigator. A new book (The Colour of Class, written with Nicola Rollock, Carol Vincent and Stephen J. Ball) arsing from this project will be published in the Autumn, 2014. For further details see http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415809825/ Further information on the project and its findings. REACH: raising the aspirations and attainments of Black boys and young men Co-ordinated by the Department for Communities & Local Government,the REACH initiative brought together a range of activists, experts and community-members to explore ways of reducing race inequality in education. The group produced and independent report and went on to examine ways in which school inspections could be improved to better support race equality. Further information on the REACH project Aiming High: African Caribbean Achievement Project David was part of the team (led by Professor Leon Tikly at Bristol University) that evaluated the pilot programme of 'Aiming High', an initiative dedicated to raising Black students' achievement through dedicated work with a sample of schools. Their report highlighted both successes and problems. Download the final report for the Aiming High: Africa Caribbean Achievement project.

It's time to vote for your EA SPORTS Player of the Month!
Arsenal started and ended October in style and remain in the hunt for four trophies despite a dip in the middle of the month.
Olympiacos were beaten 3-1 at Emirates Stadium in the Champions League and West Ham United went down to the same scoreline at Upton Park as Olivier Giroud opened his Premier League account.
Santi Cazorla scored the goal of the game in east London but even he could not stop Arsenal slipping to successive defeats against Norwich City and Schalke.
Mikel Arteta poked home from close range to get Arsène Wenger's side back on track against Queens Park Rangers on the day Jack Wilshere made his long-awaited first-team return.
And October ended with arguably the Club's finest ever comeback - from 4-0 down to 7-5 up after extra time at Reading in the Capital One Cup.
As ever there are plenty of contenders for our Player of the Month award. Carl Jenkinson and Per Mertesacker were consistent in defence, Arteta was influential in midfield and Theo Walcott and Giroud were sharp in attack.
Who do YOU think was Arsenal's outstanding performer? If you're a registered user of Arsenal.com, this is your chance to cast your vote for the EA SPORTS Player of the Month award.
The deadline for voting is 10am (UK time) on Tuesday, November 6.
One lucky voter will be chosen to present the award to the winning player before a first-team game at Emirates Stadium.
Win match tickets & present the award!

'Yesterday's deal cost the Islanders two of their best young players, center Tim Connolly and left wing Taylor Pyatt, both of their high first-round picks from the 1999 draft.'
Archives for June 2001
Peca Deal Has Isles In Middle of it
Peca joins Isles' makeover
'"We had a year's history of offers for Michael Peca," said Sabres GM Darcy Regier, a former Islanders assistant. "This was as good as we were going to get, in our opinion, unless we pushed it all the way through the summer."'
Milbury sends pair to Sabres for holdout Peca
'"Obviously, with the addition of Yashin," Peca said, "we're going to be a team that's going to be more than just a little bit competitive next year."'
Former rivals happy to unite with Islanders
'But how could anyone be excited about being traded to a team that hasn't made the playoffs in seven years?'
In the end, Peca deal dictated by money
'Buffalo Sabres general manager Darcy Regier, as decent a man as there is in NHL management circles, choked up while announcing the trade of former captain Michael Peca to the New York Islanders yesterday, a reflection of both pride in his own organization for seeing a gut-wrenching process to the end and hurt over being publicly portrayed as a villain bent on injuring a young athlete's career and family.'
Islanders land Peca
'After sitting out a year, Mike Peca may have gone to a worse fate: He's now a New York Islander.'
Sabres set to send Hasek to St. Loo?
'The deal reportedly is delayed by the lack of assurance from Hasek he will play two more years in the NHL. It is widely speculated that he plans to retire after the Olympics in February.'
Islanders prove Peca's salvation
'Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said he was never trying to be vindictive in his contract battle with Peca, though those allegations were made by Peca and his agent, Don Meehan. Regier said he was simply trying to protect the Sabres.'
Tears of joy for Peca
'"It's very rare that I'm at a loss for words, but the only thing I can say is that this is just great," said Peca. "I was close to tears (Saturday) because I knew some of the offers (Buffalo had received) and I didn't think it was going to happen."'
Islanders get Peca from Sabres
'Asked if it was the best deal Buffalo could get, he replied, "That's a good question. Given the deals that were on the table yesterday, you really had to take a step back and wonder what they were doing by not seriously considering some of the [other] offers. . . . Some of the other offers out there were as good as the Islander offer, or perhaps better, depending on people's opinions. These were offers that were serious. They weren't marginal offers at all. There were a lot of teams that really wanted Michael Peca."'
Islanders pull Peca from exile
'"I think nothing more than at some point in time, it became personal, and they wanted to teach Michael Peca a lesson," Meehan said yesterday. "I guess they are part of the dynamics of our game today, but in my view this was totally unnecessary."'
Peca overjoyed at being Islander
'They're not the best of buddies — Milbury fired Regier after taking over as Islanders GM — but in this case, Milbury had the best cards to play. He obtained Peca and Yashin without giving up his best winger, Brad Isbister.'
Isles trade top prospects for Peca
'WINNER: The Sabres did fine without Peca last season, they might do even better next season with Connolly and Pyatt.'
Regier glad to finally put Peca saga behind him
'"There are a lot of things we have to look at, but for now, we feel very strongly about these two young players we've acquired," Regier said. "The forward position is an issue for us and we feel we've acquired a tremendous playmaking center in Connolly and a strong left wing in Pyatt, who is only 19 and playing in the NHL. "They're going to be helping us for a long, long time."'
Notebook: Isles acquire Peca
'Regier said, "I don't have a bitter bone in my body over this situation. I never have."'

Fitness and technology have gone hand in hand since as far back as Hermes, Greek messenger of the gods who first strapped on his fabled winged boots and took to the skies. Fast forward a few thousand years and things are little different, which is why we're reviewing the Nike SportWatch.
The SportWatch, which we first saw at CES and is made in collaboration with sat nav heavyweights TomTom, is a GPS Enabled time keeping device that tracks and stores your distance, speed, time, pace, calories burned and allows you to share details online with your friends or virtual training community.
The large flat, angular base of the watch causes the watch to overhang smaller wrists slightly and it isn't as comfortable as more recent Garmin models, but it is just as small and in our opinion more stylish in that it looks like a piece of sporting equipment - none of these such watches are really suited to everyday wearing. The replaceable strap is very secure once on the watch and it is 65 grams, 13g heavier than the Garmin 210 and 2g more than a G-Shock Classic.
The 34 x 70 x 17mm watch isn't too large compared to GPS-enabled devices of yore and the 2.4 x 2.7 cm LCD display is the clearest we have seen on any sport watch, with white numbers and letters on a black background.
The watch also comes with a the Nike sensor ShoePod, an accelerometer which measures footfalls so runners can track their distance based on pace when they are running on a treadmill or indoors where they can't receive a satellite signal. This can be fastened to a shoe's laces with a small carrier or can be inserted in the sole of a Nike compatible running shoe like the LunarGlide range.
what happened to this site, why is this listed with no review? Its been going down hill for a while. Shame as it was really good.
I second that. With all the ads (and links which looks like ads) the whole thing looks like one of those annoying price comparison websites now.
Sorry, this shouldn't have been sent out as review on our RSS feed when it was. It's just another of the bugs we're working out on the new site.
As you'll see the review is now live.
I agree with KingOsticks/Mister Normal- the RSS feed is even a bit flakey these days with multiple reposts etc and advertising taking too much of a prominent place over content- one must drive the other surely!
Still Not working for me. And I hope the site settles down and improves as it has taken two steps backwards. The simplicity was perfect!
I still can't see a review (13.23)
TR lay off the ad revenue and stick to what you usede to be good at!
I've also arrived at this rather baffling page after a third RSS news article stating "We put the latest GPS sport watch up against a top of the line Garmin watch over the course of the Paris Marathon" and then see "Not reviewed yet by TR".
I'm also a bit confused as to why reviews of a a Pure radio, satnav, laptop, video conditioner and rucksacks are considered 'related'?
I'm all for change, if it's an improvement, but I do like the simplicity of the old TR design. Much easier to see what's what.
I cannot stand this new website, I tried to find an old review yesterday, failed. I tried to read this review, failed.
Please change it back, call it oldskool, call it retro, or at least put a button on this site to go back to the old format!
Another comment section and another round of website re-design criticism. When are TR going to get it?
Hi Cliff. Thanks for this review. I have been looking forward to the release of this sports watch for some time. Your review seems to take the same stance as other reviewers, in that this watch is aimed at beginners or casual runners (in other words...me). Having checked out the feedback on the Nike+ and Garmin forums, I am kind of torn between this watch and the Forerunner 210 which you reviewed a couple of months ago. You have given this watch 9/10 based I believe on its simplicity and ease of use, whereas you gave the 210 a more rounded 8/10. My question is if you had to buy one, which of these two would you choose, and why? I have also seen the promo clip for the new Forerunner 610 which Garmin will be releasing in May as a direct competitor to the Nike+ watch. Looks promising...no?
On another note. There seems to be a lot of negative comments circulating regarding the design and increased advertising on this website. The old layout was good...I liked it. However, it was dated when compared with sites like engadget. This site now seems more cutting edge and current. If the advertising has to be more intrusive to keep this site at the forefront in its field, then I can live with that.
For those struggling to read the review, to get beyond the front page, you have to click 'Continue reading'. It isn't obvious first time around, and still isn't intuitive now.
I detest having to scroll through to many adverts and site links just to get to the comments.
I understand that this watch has a purpose, but the market must now be small. I use the Nike+ GPS app with my iPhone, and there are plenty of others for it as well as for Android etc (Runmeter, Runtastic etc). None cost over £5 and they all do a lot more than this device. Yes, probably a little less accurately and of course, they will struggle if you regularly run through tunnels.
The Nike Running website could do with a refresh, but it is still streets ahead of anything else out there at the moment.
Thanks for the good review.
For the record I don't mind the new site. Just keep bunging out the good material and I will come back to read. Fix the niggles so that everything works. Just make sure you don't go bankrupt through lack of advertising!
Has anyone tried clicking the "video review" button of this product? I am getting Cliff Smith reviewing a Nikon Coolpix camera!
Well done on the marathon. Was sub-4:30 your target?
If this is just my stupidity shoot me down in flames, but... is fullscreen disabled on the video?
I assumed on the old site that it was purposely disabled so the adverts on the page were visible, but since we're now forced to enjoy a 15 second sponsor clip before the video starts, can't fullscreen be enabled?
Disabling fullscreen seems a dozy thing to do, anyway, because of the resolution-dependence – on a low-res screen you don't see the advertising and on a high-res screen the video is miniscule (I'm using a 16" 1920x1080 laptop at the moment, and the video is just annoyingly tiny).
PS The 'Video' tab for this review still links to the Nikon CoolPix review.
Either TR Readers are being sold a dummy or the link to the video review icon against the Nike+ SportsWatch Review headline on the Home Page is incorrect. I suspect the latter as the video review is on the "Review" tabbed page as well as the fact the above linked video review clearly has the description for Nikon CoolPix L110.
Of course the video reviews will precede the review - as seen elsewhere so NO 'problem' there then.
All - thanks for the comments. This article was subject to some technical difficulties with the new site which affected video and the early publishing of the page without a review. Despite these risks, I wanted to get this up soon because it's marathon season and we had a early sample of the watch ahead of other tech sites.
@simonm Actually 4:15 was my target, but this being my first marathon, I had no idea, so I CHASED a 4:00 time for the first 10 miles, realised how stupid that was, burned out, walked half of Mile 15 and cursed myself around the next 5 miles before manning up and vowing to come in sub 4:30. It's a cautionary tale and one best left out of this product review.
@shnatiw Good question. I think it comes down to the user. Personally I like to review my splits straight away, so if Mile 15 was rubbish, I want to see that time on the watch. The SportWatch doesn't allow you to do that, but the Garmin Forerunner 210 does. For a casual runner, the Nike is the idea watch, but for the stats-hungry athlete, it's the Garmin. The 410, although brilliant, is pricey but offers serious grunt as a training tool thanks to the virtual partner functionality. I am interested in the 610 (and budget models) and will be requesting one next week. As a runner myself, I'm keen to review more kit, so keep your suggestions coming in and watch this space.
Hi small correction - you can switch from miles to KM by logging into Nike Connect software - most Nike items are customisable once you plug them into usb :)
I've used Nike Running ios app for two years and felt so cool to be able to go for a run without my phone, armband and headphones tonight, and still log my run against my friends Nike Leaderboard ..
First use of it tonight and very impressed so far ...

text: As always someone is going to tell me its too early to start this thread but we have results and that means time to speculate on what will happen with next season! JGP Men- Chen, Kaugars, Choate, Yostanto, Tomasello, Schetelich, and Howe to start with. I expect Brown and Farris to move up to senior GP. Ladies- Miller, Bell, Long, Cain, Edmunds, Wang, Daniels, Siraj, Jiang, Keiser, and Gold if she doesn't do senior GP. Siraj has done several seasons already but I guess one more can't hurt, unless she goes senior internationally...this one's a bit up in the air since it depends on senior ladies comp somewhat, and the results of Junior Worlds. I can't even begin to imagine adding some of the top novices to this list, its already so full (Chen and Glenn are too young but Gelb and Vinci are old enough). I think Lam will be moving up. Pairs- Aaron/Settlage, Simpson/Blackmer (or senior GP?), Denney/Frazier (or senior GP?), Calalang/Sidhu, Pfund/Reiss, Zaitsev/Stevens as the 6 core teams. Others may be added depending on offseason developments and Indy results. Dance- Aldridge/Eaton (or senior GP), McNamara/Carpenter, Parsons/Parsons, Heritage/Fast, Hawayek/Bramante for starters. We may see Moore/Klaber, Miller/MacMillan, Rosinski/Jaffe, Pogrebinsky/Gudis, and Mancini/Brooks added in depending on availability and summer results. SENIOR B- hopefully room for Dolensky, Warren, Cesario, Forte, Baga, Duarte/Grafton, and Bonacorsi/Mager, among others. A few of these could squeak on to the GP series even.
