I Need A,
Unova Poke'mon Rock Or Ground Poke'mon Moveset Item Nature EV's In White-Version
Maybe Terrakion
Terrakion @ Coice Band/Choice Scarf EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Nature: Jolly/Adamant
Close Combat is nice STAB move, and STAB Stone Edge compliments it extremely well. X-scissor hits Psychic types more reliable, and a bit harder than Stone Edge. Sacred Sword is here if you don't want to lower Terrakion's defenses, Earthquake is pretty redundant with CC, but it hits some things harder, like Jirachi. Quick Attack is priority and is an option for the Choice Band set. As for natures, Adamant can be used on the Choice Banded set, but you won't outspeed as much which can be key sometimes. Nevertheless, Adamant does do more damage, and works well on slower opponents. Adamant can also be used on the Choice Scarf set, for a powerful and fast attacker, while Jolly has more of a "revengekilling" role. I just saw you want a tank, Terrakion can be paired with Tyranitar or Hippowdon to give it a nice 50% SpD boost, helping it take hits. It also has respectable natural bulk, having 91 / 90 / 90 HP and defenses, respectively.
I'd have to say... Excadrill!
Excadrill is a pokemon that can learn a ton of good moves; Drill Run, Earthquake, and Dig. Plus it learns two great K-O moves like Fissure and Horn Drill. It is also capable of learning a ton of TM's.

TVs are lonely. A beer-soaked barstool at 2 a.m. kind of lonely. They cry out for companionship, their tinny, bass-less voices difficult to hear, even harder to enjoy. When they were young, they held so much promise: high definition, good times, low cost. How quickly came the onset of disappointment?
A search, a hope, a late-night call for help. Four suitors — less "Diamonds and Gold" and more "Small Change" — sauntered in: the Valley vixen, Harman Kardon's Soundbar 30; two Seoul singers, LG's NB3520A and Samsung's HW-E550; and Vizio's VHT215, glossy black from head to toe and fluent in Mandarin.
The tip jar at the bar may not hold quite enough, but enough is all you will need to hold: Just a few hundred dollars is what you'll pay for this play. In tow with each soundbar: a faithful wireless subwoofer to nip at the heels and bring bass to the table where none was before. Half the bars are HDMI-friendly, and all of them come with remotes for you to dial in your choice of 11 p.m. loud or 4 a.m. loud.
But now it's a quarter to three, there's no one in the place, 'cept you and me. Let's find one for your baby, and three more for the road.
To test the performance of the soundbars, I first did frequency response measurements on both the soundbars and subwoofers. Then I did CEA-2010 output measurements on the subwoofers.
Soundbar response measurements were done on the left channels only, with all surround, EQ, and volume management modes deactivated. I placed the bars atop a 2-meter stand and placed the microphone at a distance of 2 meters, enough to incorporate the contributions of all the drivers and diffraction from the front baffles of the soundbars. I averaged responses at 0°, ±10°, ±20°, and ±30°, then smoothed the result to 1/12th octave. These measurements were good down to 300 Hz. I then did ground-plane measurements (smoothed to 1/3rd octave) of the soundbars to get their <300 Hz response, then spliced the ground plane to the quasi-anechoic response to get the curves you see here. All subwoofer frequency response measurements were done using 1/3rd-octave-smoothed ground plane sweeps at 2 meters. I used a Clio FW analyzer in MLS mode for the quasi-anechoic measurements and log chirp mode for the low-frequency measurements.
I measured the Samsung HW-E550 in both configurations: soundbar (horizontal) and stereo speaker (vertical).
CEA-2010 measurements were done at 2 meters, then scaled up +6 dB to simulate results at 1 meter as required by CEA-2010. Averages were performed in pascals, according to the new but as-yet-published revisions to CEA-2010. An "L" appears next to those measurements in which the device reached maximum volume without passing the CEA-2010 distortion thresholds. With most subwoofers, this indicates the presence of a limiter that actively restricts maximum output, but with low-cost products like these soundbars it may simply reflect the manufacturer's chosen maximum output level. — Brent Butterworth
Thank you for finally doing a review on some sound bars. I am moving into a house finally. I have been given the basement to do whatever with, but the living room needs to be clean. I immediately start looking into everything out there, which is daunting.
I had almost settled between the Harman or the YSP-2200 and then realized that my room acoustics were going to be pretty poor with the location of the television. That is when I decided I just wanted something that would sound decent for music and boost television listening levels. That is where the Vizio comes into play.
I am a big Vizio fan due to the bang for the buck I have gotten with their TVs. I had heard recommendations of this sound bar but nothing comparing it to several others like you have done here.
One question I have, is there any thoughts on reviewing the sound bars from Polk?
So, which one is "left standing" ??
@sofast1 — it was a close one, since they all have their strengths, but the Vizio provided the most bang for the buck, and gets our Certified+Recommended stamp (see the second page of this piece)
Thanks, I was looking for the "winner" and skimmed to the end. Sadly, most readers will miss the most important part; " As with all soundbars, the fidelity isn't as good as what you'd get from a decent pair of bookshelf speakers". Compare any of these to something like the Energy Take 5. Convenience is now more important than performance. Bummer.
Nice article. I wish I had seen it before I bought the LG soundbar. The 3D processing sometimes sounds "thin" to me. Are the frequency response graphs included in the article measured in stereo mode or in 3D mode? Were you 1 meter away?
@nyquist: All measurements were done in stereo mode, with any surround virtualizers deactivated. Because virtualizers take advantage of head-related transfer function (HRTF), the response of the signals is designed to sum inside your head with contributions from both ears, not at the capsule of a single measurement mic. So if you measure them with a mic, you get a lot of frequency response anomalies that you don't hear.
All measurements were done at 2 meters, because the bars are long and I wanted to capture the diffraction effects of the entire bar. CEA-2010 figures were scaled up +6 dB to provide the equivalent of 1-meter measurements.
Full details on the measurements, plus full CEA-2010 numbers, have been added.
Got an email from an engineer at LG that they've fixed the stereo-swapping problem. So that shouldn't be an issue.

Satisfaction Rating:
about 10 years ago, I bought this York gas heating system. For the first two years all was ok. After that, it has been an expensive machine to keep running. It is also difficult to find a competent repair shop too. This winter, it began cutting out and not restarting. it would get up to temp, but not come back on whne the ttemp dropped again. I checked and reset the rollout switch, but it only runs throuhg one cycle before acting up. The repair man replaced the rollout switch, and that imp[roved iut, but did not cure it. After being away for a week, i reset teh thermostat to bring it up to 68 deg. from 60deg. It ran up to 66 deg, then stopped, for five mins, then came back on, but blowing cold. Code #1 was flashing so I shut off the electric power, waited 30 secs, then switched it back on; it ran, with no code, on an off all night. This morning, back to same old problem and the repair shop now tells me just to replace th whole machine! It may be a few years old but I just don't believe that this constanbt procession o freplacement parts is the right way to diagnose or repair it. Is there some way I can diagnosis and repair instructions? I have quite a bit of experience with electronically controlled machinery, so can probably get to the bottom of it myself.

I had my old Janitrol replaced last year with a new "York" unit. This unit is very LOUD and noisy and I have been very unhappy with it since I bought it. There is absolutely nothing we can do about the NOISE level and it sounds like a jet engine taking off....never again will I purchase a "YORK" or recommend this unit to anyone.

"Recurring York Furnace Problems"
Obviously, the positive reviews are york company representatives. My york affinity 9.m furnace is 6 years old. I've replaced the inducer fan + motor because the motor/bearings failed in the first one ($265 part). Tried bearing only replacement, but the motor is not truly serviceable, meaning you eventually have to replace the whole thing. At the same time, the pressure switch failed (3 blinking reds, pressure switch stuck open, another $20 part). That meant he furnace wouldn't come on during the coldest day of the year, it was 8 degrees outside. Now the error is "low flame sense current" meaning that the flame sensor is probably going bad. That'll be another $10-$20. My old furnace was 50 years old and it was more reliable than this piece of junk. stay away from york affinity!

"Rumbling York Variable Speed Ele Furnace"
Spend $4,000+ on a new electric furnace from York. The Plus - It does provide heat. Neg - the variable speed fan rumbles for 5-10 seconds every time it starts up while it adjusts. Humm this is a feature? even the constant fan option is loud. When I reviewed the reviews of York there is a huge unsatified customer base. How about the York management come over to my house and check out my problem?

I bought this furnace a year ago and am ready to replace it. It has to run on at least the third speed otherwise it overheats. On this speed the rushing air noise keeps us awake. Can't get rid of it fast enough. I am trying to get my money back.

"York Furnace, "ya right""
Bought a york furnace about 3 years ago, worked well for the first 2 winters but this winter the furnace just stopped working. It stopped working on a monday, had a tech come in and fix it, then the furnace started leaking the same week on the tue. tech came in on wed fixed the problem. then the furnace stopped running same week fri. night. tech came sat. said that the furnace needed a new motor. same day motor was replaced furnace ran for about 1 hour and then broke down again! never ever again will i buy a york furnace again. i change the filter every 6 months, so i know its not the filter, tech confirmed it was not the filter. should have left my old furnace in, gave me way less problems, but since it was 18 years old i thought getting a new one would save me time and money.....guess not!

"Terrible Furnaces!"
We bought our house in summer of 2006. It had 2 York furnaces (one is zoned for the upstairs; the other is zoned for basement and main level). First time we turned on the furnaces, one didn't work. The HVAC service team was from the company that installed the furnaces in 2001 (their stickers were on the furnaces, so that's why we called them). Turns out a blower motor was burned out and had to be replaced. Since that winter, we have replaced five motors, and in early 2010 had to replace the SAME blower motor that we bought in fall of 2006. These are the worst furnaces we have EVER owned (this is our 4th home). In the past six weeks, one of the flame sensors has gone out twice ($200 a pop for a service call and flame sensor cleaning), and we've finally had it. I called two companies and are getting quotes next week on Carrier and Trane furnaces. It is ridiculous that after 9 years we are replacing furnaces, but they've been nothing but money pits for the 4 years we've lived here!

Ever since 2009 when she made her big break through she has been running indoor. In fact her best season to date (2009) she ended that season with the fastest 60m time for that season (7.11). I know it is relatively early in the indoor season but I have not heard anything about her running any indoor meet, I would think this would be a good tune up or 'check' at least to see where she's at compared to other season.
I would imagine that if she intended to, she would have already competed in the US at least once by now.

Web edition: August 17, 2012
Print edition: September 8, 2012; Vol.182 #5 (p. 5)
A newly discovered class of virus may be at fault in a disease that causes snakes to regurgitate their food, stop eating, and even twist themselves into knots.
Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, found three new viruses in captive snakes with inclusion body disease, a fatal illness that strikes boa constrictors and pythons and causes clumps of proteins to build up in the snakes' cells. The unusual genetic makeup of the viruses could give scientists clues to virus evolution stretching back to the age of the dinosaurs.
"It is so different from anything out there it's almost unrecognizable. It's way out there," says Joseph DeRisi, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator at UCSF who led the work, which appears online August 14 in mBio.
The newly identified viruses are similar to arenaviruses, a class previously found only in rodents. Sometimes an arenavirus, such as the one that causes Lassa hemorrhagic fever, will infect a human, but the viruses have never been found in reptiles before.
But the snake viruses have a feature not seen in any arenavirus — a gene found in Ebola, which is in a completely different class called filoviruses. Virologists never thought it possible that those two classes could swap genes, says William Gallaher, a virologist and emeritus professor at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans.
Ebola could have mixed with arenaviruses long ago, resulting in the combination snake virus. But Gallaher thinks the possibility is slim. The two virus types have different biology, so finding them both active in the same cell at the same time to mix their genetic material seems unlikely, he says.
DeRisi is excited about another possibility: Perhaps the snake viruses are an ancient ancestor to the arenaviruses and filoviruses. "Maybe what you're looking at is a dinosaur virus eons old," he says. The ancient reptile viruses may then have given rise to arenaviruses that infect rodents.
Or it could be the other way around: The newly discovered viruses may have originally infected rodents, as arenaviruses do today. Sometime in the murky past, a rodent may have passed its virus on to the snake that ate it, says coauthor Mark Stenglein, a virologist working in DeRisi's lab. "We call that the rodent revenge hypothesis."
There is no evidence that modern mice are passing the disease to pet snakes, Stenglein says. And although the viruses were found in snakes with inclusion body disease, that doesn't necessarily mean the virus causes the illness. The next step will be to infect healthy snakes with the viruses to see if they develop the disease.
The snake viruses are so different that they are probably in a class by themselves, DeRisi says. An international board of experts on viral taxonomy will have the final say over whether the viruses are really a new class, but DeRisi is confident they are distinct. "It's kind of a no-brainer," he says.
Back Story | The snake lady's letter
Joseph DeRisi wasn't sure at first what to make of the letter he got a few years ago from Taryn Hook of San Jose, Calif., not to mention the photo she enclosed of herself with a boa constrictor draped around her neck. It wasn't the sort of thing the UCSF virologist is accustomed to finding in his mail.
Hook's letter explained that she was worried her beloved 15-year-old boa constrictor, Larry, had contracted inclusion body disease, a mystery illness that had already claimed the lives of her two other pet snakes.
Hook's letter noted that inclusion body disease can cause bizarre behavior and digestive problems — Larry once refused to eat for six months — and that the virus causing the condition was unknown. Since DeRisi had previously identified viruses that cause a mysterious disease in parrots called proventricular dilatation disease, Hook suggested, perhaps he could help.
DeRisi confesses that the letter and photo sat on his desk for a while. He was about to toss them, but something stopped him. "It was the veterinarian's phone number at the bottom of the letter that clued me in that this thing might be real." He called Larry's vet, Chris Sanders of Wildwood Veterinary Hospital in Portola Valley, Calif., and was soon convinced that inclusion body disease was worth going after. Several years of research have now led to the discovery of three previously unknown viruses that may be linked to the disease.
Larry, the snake who started it all, has tested negative for all three of the viruses. What's ailing him remains a mystery.Citations

July 18 – Happy Birthday Johnny Hopp
Back in the late forties and early fifties, Yankee GM George Weiss would scour the rosters of the 15 other big league teams looking for what the New York media liked to call "pennant insurance." With the platoon master, Casey Stengel calling the shots on the field in the Bronx, Weiss knew that providing the Ol' Perfessor with one good extra bat or pitching arm was the recipe for a few extra late-season wins and quite possibly another trip to the Fall Classic. In August of 1949, Weiss had grabbed the "Big Cat," Johnny Mize from the cross town Giants for $40,000 dollars. The primary reason the former NL batting champion was available in the first place was because Giant manager Leo Durocher was not very fond of him. When Weiss gave Mize to Stengel, Casey used him masterfully as a pinch hitter and part-time first baseman for the next five Yankee seasons.
A year after getting Mize, Weiss spent another 40,000 Yankee dollars to get Johnny Hopp from the Pirates. Hopp had been a teammate of Mize's when both played and starred for the Cardinals early in their careers. Though he didn't have lots of power, Hopp was a great defensive first baseman, a better-than-average center fielder and a solid batsman who turned pitches into line drives with great regularity. In fact, when Weiss swung the deal to put him in pinstripes, Hopp was hitting .340. The national baseball press howled that the mysterious Weiss was somehow using the financial might of the Yankees to form a cabal of MLB owners willing to sell New York any player needed to fill a gap in the team's roster. In actuality, no NL team in the pennant race at the time of the Hopp transaction wanted or needed a first baseman who could not hit for power. But Stengel welcomed him with open arms into his toolbox, which was more commonly referred to as the Yankee dugout.
During the final month of the 1950 regular season, Hopp appeared in 19 games for New York and hit .333 with a .486 on base percentage. His timely hitting helped the Yankees hold off a very good Detroit Tiger team to win that year's pennant by just three games. In 1951, Hopp's age (35 at the time) began to catch up with him as injuries limited his play and had a negative impact on his batting average. The Hastings, Nebraska native was given his outright release the following year and he finished his big league career as a member of the Tigers. He retired with a .296 lifetime batting average and four World Series rings, two each with the Cardinals and Yankees.
Hopp shares his July 17th birthday with this former Yankee Manager and this one-time Yankee starting pitcher.

The recent shooting of a 14-year-old girl in Pakistan by the Taliban is enough to make one sick. To the western mind, there is absolutely no justification for this deadly act.
That's the rub. It's not the western minds we have to convince that the Taliban is what they appear to be … killers and bandits who want to control the entire area. And they do this by intimidating everybody else. Their ethnic background in Afghanistan is Pashtun. These people, hundreds of years ago, came from Persia about the same time the Mullahs invaded and conquered parts of India. In a nation that is tribal, the Pashtuns are the largest ethnic group in Afghanistan. They represent about two-fifths of the population. So, it is no wonder, with more people than any other tribe, the Pashtuns feel they should rule. They have fought nearly every invader that one can conjure up. In the 1840s, they sent the British running with their tails between their legs back to India, and more recently they fought the Russians, and now they're fighting us. And that's one of our biggest problems. With the largest ethnic population in Afghanistan, you can certainly see how tribal loyalty is not helping our cause at all. They have the majority of the population in Kabul, capital of Afghanistan, and Kandahar, one of the largest cities. They don't especially want to kill Americans, but since we're trying to turn them into a democratic people, they certainly will kill us. In truth, the Afghans are like everyone else, that is, they would rather not be at war. But if their tribal Pashtun leaders say war it is, then war it will be. And, frankly, to defeat the tribe where the Taliban began, we will simply have to kill all of them.
During the Russian conflict, the Taliban took in people of other cultures and countries who would fight the infidel Russians and now there are many factions of the Taliban who do not have any Pashtun affiliations. I suspect some of these men may be responsible for the shooting of this brave, Pakistani girl. Her biggest crime to these people was being female and speaking out. Secondly, she spoke out for female education, which is something these radical idiots do not want to have anywhere near them.
As I write this, I do not know whether she lives or dies. This lovely little girl is only 14. May Allah curse the killers, may he salt their land, and may their bodies be picked apart by vultures.
Now there's a curse that even the Taliban will understand.

Here's what our pupils say …
We have 20 years of experience teaching Shaw Method. We've taught literally thousands of people to change their relationship with the water and helped them to enjoy swimming in a totally new way.
"The teaching was very well structured with very clear presentations. This has provided me with a new technique which feels very relaxed and comfortable. Will be recommending to friends."
Ian Betram
"The classes exceeded my expectations: the course content was a revolution compared to my previous swimming technique."
Hugh Scott
"Steven [Shaw]'s passion and stillness quietly encourages you to dispel bad habits and encourages new."
Jayne Owen
"The lead teacher was inspirational: I aspire to develop a relaxed swimming style like Steven's. The most amazing thing is to be able to swim with my face under water. It has opened up a whole new world of swimming."
Judy Lawrence
"I have rheumatoid arthritis mostly in my left arm which was preventing me from swimming in a classical manor so I am delighted to say the care and consideration I was given has changed my concept and understanding of crawl dramatically. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will happily sign up for other courses."
Suzanna Redgrave
"It felt that we were mastering an art, not just being taught how to fling our arms and legs and stay afloat. I feel inspired to carry on trying. I feel the lessons have given me the best possible start both in technique and confidence. Phil [Tibenham]'s passion for swimming was really apparent and that was infectious and motivating too. I would definitely recommend it to friends, in fact I have already."
Helen Cripps
"I would definitely recommend the Shaw Method and Huseyin Dermis as a teacher to anyone wanting to learn or improve their swimming, especially someone who had back problems as I did. Huseyin is a very positive and patient teacher. He is great at identifying the bits of the stroke I am doing wrong, and by correcting them I see an immediate improvement which is very motivating."
Bridget Mallarky
"Wow! My friend and I have just two sessions with Frances Scott at Nuffield in Bromley. We were both always out of breath when we swam a length and the Shaw Method and Frances's teaching are really changing that. Thanks for two great lessons and for making me like swimming again!"
Alison Manning
"I've just completed a six week course with the Art of Swimming at Nuffield Letchworth with Peter Brierley. I'm 48 now but only learnt to swim a few years ago. I always struggled with front crawl, finding it really hard work and eventually damaged my shoulder to the point a had to give up for many months. I saw an advert for the Shaw Method a while ago and decided to book up for 2013 and had a fantastic time on the course. There were only four in the class which was a good size, giving flexibility for group and a little one to one time. I really looked forward to the class nights and really appreciated Peter's support and guidance throughout the course. The video clips taken towards the end of the course were invaluable along with Peter's tips for better performance which I've been steadily been applying since the end of the course. I know I've still a lot of work to do but I feel I've made great progress and I feel more relaxed than ever in the water. What is also key for me is that feel this technique will prevent any further injury and, above all else, I actually enjoy my swimming again. Peter is a great teacher and I really appreciated his patients, guidance and words of support during the course. A very enjoyable six weeks, thank you."
Martin Ives
Dear Steven and Team
"I just wanted to say a huge thank you for a thoroughly excellent day on the 23 February 2013. I was so impressed with how, all of you were so knowledgeable, patient and warm- such very nice people! "I really enjoyed myself and learnt so much. I was in the pool practising on Tuesday. I think it may take a bit of perseverance but I am more than willing to do that! I could not recommend you guys enough! Thank you once again."
Sophie Negus
"Jan [Moffat Osband] is a gifted swimming teacher who effectively shares her knowledge and expertise in the Art of Swimming. This is tailored to the unique abilities of each trainee and puts theory into practice via demonstration, observation and individual feedback."
Jim Stevenson
"Joe [Detnon] has excellent people skills. He has been very attentive to all the members of the course. He seems passionate about what he does and his ability to empathise with pupils is very high, which, in my opinion, is essential in teaching."
Monika Krupa-Flasinska
"The follow up course covered exactly what I wanted – a refresher for front crawl that took on board my level and addressed the difficulties I was having. I felt that Maciek [Sikora] honed in on exactly the issues I was struggling with and came up with good advice and solutions. The course totally exceeded my expectations."
Paul Wheeler
"I would like to thank you for bringing a new dimension in my swimming skills. I have finally mastered the butterfly and I really enjoy practising it. I know that there is always room for improvement, but what I have so far is giving me a great deal of enjoyment in the water. The other point is that the fear I had of the pool deep end is gone. By mastering the butterfly skill I feel much more confident and it actually helped me to understand the breathing rhythm in the water. Thank you again for developing such a precious way of swimming the butterfly."
Tereza Beardsmore
"I came to re-learn breaststroke and so enjoyed my lessons that I thought I'd give front crawl a try. It's been a long process and Joe [Detnon] has encouraged me every stroke of the way. He kept me focussed when I really thought of giving up. And I feel so much better all round for making the effort."
Marlena Schmool
"I have been water phobic for 45+ years and Steven [Shaw] is actually getting me to swim underwater and to learn crawl, which is an extraordinary achievement!"
Rebecca Hotopf
"The group course has given me greater confidence in the water and an awareness of the different body movements that make up the stroke as a fluid whole. Also, even though I hadn't been able to learn how to breathe comfortably during the stroke, I was left feeling reassured that this would come with practice and was guided on what movements I would need to focus and improve on."
Raj Johal
"Two hours after the workshop I went back in the pool and everything seemed to fall into place. Last night in the pool my swimming felt easy and relaxed, a total turnaround ... thanks!"
Rebecca Coales
"I have now completed my series of six lessons with Peter Brierley, and just wished to leave some feedback, basically to say a big 'Thank you!' to Peter for his teaching – so patient and supportive. I was very nervous initially, (although determined to succeed) and he encouraged me sensitively through those first few 'scarysteps' of putting my face and head into the water. It was great that he has not only heaps of patience but also a good sense of humour, and was able to explain things in a way that made sense (even if I needed reminding sometimes). I intend to keep practising all that I have learnt and to return for some 'top-ups' if necessary, and for some lessons for other strokes later. I will certainly recommend Peter and AoS to anyone who decides to take the plunge as I have done."
Angela Davies
"The best thing about taking these lessons was that it has reminded me how much I love being in the water. It has been so much fun and has completely transformed the way I feel about swimming."
"The workshop was a wonderful experience – a perfect size of group. Steven Shaw makes swimming look effortless, and is a great ambassador for the water. I would highly recommend Art of Swimming."
Julia Webb-Harvey
"I loved the butterfly workshop. Also loved all the other workshops I have done too. Art of Swimming has helped me keep arthritic pain under control and given me tasks to keep me motivated to becoming a better swimmer."
Hilda Anderson
"Before the course, I was unable to do the breaststroke: I was always getting the timing of my arms and legs wrong. After the lesson, I was really pleased to be able to swim a length in a relaxed manner and this has now become my favourite stroke! I recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn breaststroke in a day!"
Mimi Wong
"It's really nice to see what a good time Noah is having in the water. He thoroughly enjoys having his lessons, talks about it for days and can't wait for the next one."
Shazia Sardar, Noah's mum
"I did Steven's front crawl workshop in Harrogate in July having not swum front crawl since school (40 years ago). I completed the Dart 10k swim this weekend in front crawl with a confidence I couldn't have dreamt of. It has been such a pleasure and a revelation at how meditative and relaxing swimming can be. A gift for life! Thank you."
Liz Robin
"What a difference a day's course makes! I am now regularly swimming my 50 lengths in 35 minutes or even just under (yesterday 34 mins). This is HUGE progress for me (before I could never do it under 37 mins). Thanks so much."
Su Kent
"Before Shaw Method, swimming was a way of getting from A to B. After just one lesson I'm enjoying the journey itself. Can't wait to get in the water again!"
Julie Cade
"We have just returned from holiday in Greece, our first opportunity to put our Shaw Method to the test in a long sea swim. It was wonderful. We were both able to swim longer distances effortlessly. Our swimming has been transformed by your teaching."
Allan and Pauline Meade
"The Shaw Method has given me the opportunity, with each stroke, to stretch, relax, pull, relax, roll, relax, glide, and perhaps to undulate, in a daily rediscovery of our ancestral origins. Swimming in my dreams, the strength returns to my back as I relax in bed."
Jonathan Robertson
"As a teacher myself (albeit in a completely different field), I have nothing but respect for Steven's approach. He exudes quiet confidence so that even the most nervous of non-swimmers learn to trust him and themselves and to relax in the water."
Diana Elbourne
"It's like flying, like dreaming, like being an astronaut, like stepping out of life on land to enjoy an alternative gravity – and returning to feel replenished and re-invigorated."
Kate Tregaskis
"As a non swimmer I joined the swimming class in Swiss Cottage. I very quickly gained confidence in the water and learned to swim the breaststroke. I found Shaw Method easy to follow and non threatening particularly for adults who may be nervous in the water."
Marybelle Morrissey
"The pure enjoyment, support and trust you feel in the water through the Art of Swimming is all embracing and unique."
Anine Kopperud
"I had always considered myself a competent swimmer, but I was beginning to suffer from neck and back pain after prolonged swimming sessions. When my neck pain finally got bad enough I booked lessons with Steven Shaw. I began with crawl but have worked on all four strokes and can now do a creditable butterfly, which I would never have thought possible before. I no longer suffer from neck pain and my swimming sessions are enjoyable instead of boring. I highly recommend Shaw Method to anyone, whether a beginner or elite swimmer who wants to channel a bit of Ian Thorpe."
Lee Newman
"The Shaw Method means that; now the fly is my, surprisingly, relaxing, stroke of choice."
"I was born with Cerebral Palsy which means I have a weakness in my left side. Over the years, because of overuse, pain has developed in my right side, particularly my shoulder and lower back. I first came across Shaw Method when looking for books on the Alexander Technique. I decided it was worth further investigation and from the very first lesson I was impressed with how Shaw Method can improve one's swimming stroke whilst reducing effort. This is very important to me because I want to continue to enjoy swimming for as long a possible. I have been amazed to find that I have been able to learn front crawl and butterfly as well as improve my breast and back strokes. My general fitness level has increased and I have actually been able to build mobility and strength. This is a tremendous bonus considering the limiting nature of my impairment."
Mandy Hudson
"Shaw Method has made me fitter in my old age than I was in my thirties."
Esther Hey
"Everything about the way Steven Shaw teaches you to swim was new to me. I couldn't believe the sense of power and grace I felt as my body moved quietly through the water, rhythmically rotating from left to right, each backward stroke with the flat of my hand propelling me forward, breathing naturally by turning my body both to the left and right, my legs kicking only slightly, more like the tail of a fish that the outboard motor of my childhood."
Rich Dorment
"For me, the Shaw Method is pure meditation. I struggle to master the techniques, but it's well worth it. Certainly the nearest I will get to becoming a fish …"
Paul Billany
"I took a Shaw Method breaststroke workshop on a Tuesday, then participated in the butterfly workshop two days later. I practised a bit on Friday evening. On Saturday morning I went to the Illinois State Senior Olympics swimming competition. One of my events was a 200m individual medley. Previously, the best time I had for the event was 3:40. To qualify for the national meet next year, I had to equal or beat 3:32 for the 60-64 age group. At the meet, I used the Shaw Method fly technique and came in at 3:14. The drop in time was not only the result of a faster fly; I was also faster in all the other legs because of not being so totally exhausted by the fly."
Wayne Dickerson
"The Shaw Method is man in perfect harmony with water: swimming fish like with very little expenditure of energy. This method fosters peace, serenity, and a oneness with water."
Chris Gryce
"'The point of diving into a lake is not to swim ashore, but to luxuriate in the sensuality of swimming.' As Keats to poetry, so the Shaw Method to swimming ..."
Ewa J Lind
"For me the Shaw Method means to slide with my wholeness, enhancing a sense of freedom and ease that I enjoy later in any daily activity."
Enrique Ribes
"The Shaw Method has given me the chance to become someone I thought I'd never be – a good swimmer who enjoys the thrill of getting even better with every swim!"
Tehmina Boman
"Shaw Method is fun in the water, stress-free and relaxed."
Erich Zwyssig
And here's what health professionals say about Shaw Method ...
"Shaw's Method helps elite athletes to be aware of where they are in the water and recreational swimmers to avoid discomfort and sore muscles and be more absorbed in what they are doing."
Paul Massey, British Olympic Physiotherapist
"As a student, Shaw Method allowed me to go from someone who was giving up on the idea of ever being able to put my head in the water to swimming with full confidence and freedom in a short space in time. As an osteopath, I have referred many patients to Art of Swimming. The feedback that I have had from such patients has been nothing short of exceptional praise of the method, the teachers, and the results."
Giulia Quintarelli DO, Registered Osteopath
"I fully support and endorse the Art of Swimming. It offers an answer to the many ills of our always-on-the-go society by allowing people of all ages to recover their rhythm in the water, acquiring a form of exercise that doesn't strain the body, but tones muscles, encourages good posture, rehabilitates joints out of weight bearing. This is a form of exercise that appeals to the sportsperson, the active professional, the parent, and children alike."
Isabelle de Reyher DO, Registered Osteopath
"The pool has been used historically for performance, general fitness and hydrotherapy rehabilitation (in specific sites), but not as an extension of holistic healthcare. Existing internal referral pathways between physiotherapists, physiologists, wellbeing advisors and doctors can now be updated with the addition of Steven Shaw's trained tutors. Appropriate and judicious referral means the right person is put in with the right practitioner at the right time for their personal health objective. The addition of Art of Swimming to Nuffield Health facilities extends this ideal in a positive and, crucially, well governed fashion. This combination makes Art of Swimming an attractive proposition within Nuffield Health."
Oliver Patrick, Nuffield Health
"Steven Shaw has used his knowledge of Alexander Technique to rebuild the strokes to make them more fluid, economical and streamlined. The health benefits to people swimming correctly are enormous. Unfortunately, with conventional teaching methods most people develop technique that puts a strain on the neck, back and other joints that can produce injuries. The Shaw Method of swimming creates a superior technique that produces improvements in posture, cardiovascular fitness and confidence for all to see. It works for all ages and all standards, but would be especially beneficial to the young and old."
Dr Richard De Souza, General Practitioner

If fantasy baseball and baseball cards got together and had offspring it would be this, Topps BUNT. You build a fantasy team of nine players made up of nine virtual cards. Then depending on how well the players are doing those cards rise in value. The game is designed to be massively social, your total score is constantly being put up on a leaderboard to show you how well you're doing compared to others in your area. It's from those leaderboards you can also interact with other fans and try to trade cards or players. Topps BUNT is right now an iPad only app though it is free.
If Math-letes - so to speak - are more your thing, then a new one from IBM called Minds of Modern Mathematics may be of interest. It's an interactive timeline from the year 1000 through to the 60s designed to show how math has played a role in nearly every human innovation, everything from art to technology. Slide from side to side clicking on the hundreds of mathematicians and events to get more information. It's actually a digital version of 50-foot-long real world, physical timeline created for the 1964 World's Fair by Charles and Ray Eames. In addition to the information you can click through, there are also a handful of those 60s videos designed to teach some really complex math concepts to very non-mathematical minds. Minds of Modern Mathematics is also an iPad-only app and also free.

Kidd will 9 times out of 10 hit an uncontested 3. That's about the only type of shot I see him make these days.

Smith is looking lazy out there.
Tanking each year for unproven college players with the hope of becoming contenders in a few years
Kidd will 9 times out of 10 hit an uncontested 3. That's about the only type of shot I see him make these days.
at least the hornets are good at defending the 3... every game
I love that secondary slow mo cam FSN uses.
Man, just hit me how thin our frontline really is.
Guess who is putting in time at WBOK 1230 AM Talk Radio... Don't guess, it's me. Tune in on Fridays at 12 noon for Sport-a-Talk with Roe Brown and you might just hear me!
Feel free to PM me for details.
A team is going to set yet another 3 point shooting record against the hornets tonight .. Watch
Dell Demps PLEASE get us some scorers!
I find that the players are scared to make a mistake on defense, and that's why they fail to rotate. The young guys don't want to leave their guy and let him score. It's not very good team defense.
Also, something was mentioned about them not communicating on defense. Gotta talk.
Mr. ANSWERSON
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
Baptize them in the water out of Scarface pool,
And feed 'em from the table that held Corleone's food,
If you die, tell them that you played my game
I hope your bullet holes become mouths that say my name.
Anderson for 3!
Don't leave J.R.
nah dont guard melo. why would you?
If Sheed would've made that I would've turned it off.
Man, when those layups start going in for Rivers, watch out!
Guard Novak. He's likely in there for one kind of shot.
Once that kid learns how to pull up from mid, he could be a handful.
Common, Common, Common. I mean, Woodson.
Lol, Anthony is doing to us what he did to me last night in NBA2K13.
Vasquez did hit 5 second half threes though so we should be ok.
I hate when he starts that dumb smiling. Like he's posing for a picture or something.
carmelo is MJ i guess
I hate Carmella

- Report An Inaccuracy In Lecture Information:
Lecture Description
Course Description
This course is an introduction to European history from around 1500 to the present. The central questions that it addresses are how and why Europe--a small, relatively poor, and politically fragmented place-- became the motor of globalization and a world civilzation in its own right. Put differently how did "western" become an adjective that, for better and often for worse, stands in place of "modern".

DiVincenzo to Present State of the County Tuesday
Christie, Sweeney, Oliver to attend address at Essex County Hospital Center in Cedar Grove.
When Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo Jr. presents his 10th State of the County address on Tuesday, Feb. 19, he'll deliver the address before an audience that will include Gov. Chris Christie, state Senate President Stephen Sweeney and state Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver. The address, to be delivered at the Essex County Hospital Center, 204 Grove St. in Cedar Grove, begins at 7 p.m. and will focus on the progress the county has made over the past year. DiVincenzo is expected to stress the county's accomplishments and offer a blueprint of the programs, events and progress being made throughout the county. At last year's address, DiVincenzo touted the county's fiscal responsibility and improvement of county parks and recreation…

Absolutely right, Adam. The last thing we need is for the county to spend like it does on parks, miniature golf and restaurants that *might* be a good long-term investment. I'll bet the county could return $10- to each household if they stopped erecting expensive signs with Joe Di's name and picture. Time fore a regime change.

What providers are recommended for a toll-free teleconference number?
- Toll-free call-in phone number
- Recording made available via MP3 or other openly available audio format
- Support for 3–6 users with ~12 teleconferences per month
- Not wanting a solution that requires people to use a computer; only requirement for users should be a phone
Preliminary Research
Below are some providers that I've found via Google, but I have zero experience with any of them, so I'm looking for feedback from people who have actually used a teleconference provider. All per minute prices are per minute per user.
- AT&T Teleconferencing: $0.085/min for toll-free pay as you go
- CorporateConferenceCalls.com: $0.039/min for toll-free pay as you go
- LiveOffice TeleConferencing: $0.08/min for toll-free pay as you go; next step is $70/mo for 1,000 min + $0.07 per additional minute
- Unlimited Conferencing: $0.069/min for toll-free pay as you go ($0.039/min for toll pay as you go)
- Global Conference: $9.95/month + $0.049/min for toll-free
Update on January 21, 2010
We decided to try CorporateConferenceCalls.com due to the low price and ability to manage multiple users via their web interface (can setup multiple people as administrators and moderators, etc.). Turns out they are actually AccuConference.com but cheaper.

Chrysler 700C minivan concept unveiled at Detroit show
Chrysler unveiled a surprise concept on Monday at the Detroit auto show, a futuristic design study called the 700C.
You read that correctly, the 700C. It's a concept Chrysler crafted to explore future looks of the minivan. It will remain on display at the show during the public days, and Chrysler is using it to explore reactions.
The 700C follows in the naming nomenclature of 300C and the 200. It has blinged-out wheels, sliding rear doors and a rather sleek exterior.
Chrysler simply unveiled the minivan in the middle of the day--and watched people's surprise. It also has at least one potential customer: Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was seen checking out the concept's features late in the afternoon.
