First woot. Have a 3 story house, these should keep my daughter from calling me on her cell. No I don't have fancy paging phones!
Just wanted to say I bought two sets for spring break. YEsssss.
Next hurricane evacuation the wife and I will use these to keep in touch as we drive to safety. The cell phone networks are beyond crap when they're that overloaded.
Bought a pair for the kids. Doubt that they will get lost in the yard with that color scheme.
A lot of you keep commenting on how short a distance 2 miles is. If you want something that transmits over 2 miles, go buy hand held CB radios for $100 each that run off of 8 AA batteries. Even then you'd be lucky to reach someone 2 miles away. Truckers uses 4' long antannae placed 8' off the ground and 12volt car batteries to power their radios and they still have trouble communicating with other truckers 2 miles away. When Motorolla first introduced the hand held FRS radios they were selling for $200 each so I dont think $20 is a lot to pay for two of them. As for the color, I just bought a pair for hiking/camping/skiing so that if we drop them in the forest, they will stand out among the leaves. I already have hand held CBs and the size and weight of them are not something you'd want to carry with you in your pack on the Appalachian Trail for 2 full days. I dont mind these little things so much because I have rechargable batteries.

YIPPIE ^_^ another smart person ... i use recharges in EVERYTHING (cept remotes) everything from my mp3 player ( which goes through a normal battery in like 2-3 days) to by gameboy.... which eats batteries a lot as well, so yeah rechargies are the key here, as with most electronic devices, they cost more than a normal battery ( like 5 - 10 for a 4 pack, 15 for one with a charger) but think, i bought some that last for 1000 charges a year ago..... i they still hold a strong charge of having to be charged and abused ALOT, so i prolly saved hundereds by now, and expect to last for another year of abuse.
And, by using rechargeables, we aren't disposing of spent alkaline batteries that end up in a landfill...
I happily made this my first woot. Why? Well, paid $10 for a pair of AM toy walkie-talkie's from Wal-Mart. My 3 year old lovess playing pilot and spaceman with them, but let's face it, they suck. Toys. Barely go from one side of the house to the other. So, I bought a pair of $15 BellSouth FRS radios like these, but, he has trouble keeping his finger on the button through a whole message, so I tend to get every 3rd word, which when spoken by a 3 year old (even a supergenius 3 year old like mine, of course!) over an FRS radio makes for some serious translation difficulties. My fault for not buying VOX capable ones to begin with. I figure these with the garish colors, lanyard, and VOX are a can't miss. I'll ebay the Bell Souther's for the same price I got 'em and all will be well. And yes - rechargable batteries are the way to go, for ANYTHING. There's just no reason to buy regular batteries anymore, while rechargables may not last as long, it's just too easy to recharge one set while using the other. I just have two boxes in my drawer, "dead" and "charged." If the "charged" box starts getting a little low, run a few sets thru the charger and you're good to go. I scoff at you slaves to the Military-Industrial-Alkaline complex! Thanks Woot.
assuming you're both on a vast cosmic chessboard made of crystal or something. LMAO! One of the best woot lines ever and so true of so many radios
definitely a good deal... check out the prices for other xact radios on shopping.com http://shopping.com/xFS?KW=Xact+Radio&FN=2+Way+Radios&FD=409

Count on loosin her with these crapie things, Then again hhhmmm you might have already thought that.
Normally I don't get all negative, but, um, selling a set of walkie talkies as a 2-for deal seems kinda cheezy. I mean, with just one, you're just an idiot talking to himself.
For all touting the wisdom of rechargable batteries in these things: Alkaline cells are 1.5 volts. Rechargables are around 1.2-1.25 volts. When you use rechargables, you won't get the range because your transmit power is reduced with the lower voltage.
Is it just me, or are these FRS/GMRS radio things looking more and more ridiculous as time goes on? I mean, when they first came out, they looked more or less like fancy walkie talkies. Which is FINE WITH ME. Then they started growing these weird curves and bulges; it was fine for a while, because for a while, despite the curves they grew, they still more or less looked like (albeit somewhat fancy/weird looking) handheld walkie talkies. But now, they're sprouting all sorts of weird neck cords, appendages, and the like. I mean, what the hell is that thing on the top of these? It looks to me for all the world like a giant, misshapen baby's bottle, with that thing on the top bearing an uncanny resemblance to a giant nipple. And not just for FRS/GMRS radios, all sorts of other products have started down the weird/strange design path. I mean, what's going on, have industrial designers started taking LSD or something?
spin54 wrote: I'm sure this has been answered, but by the off chance it hasn't. These operate on radio frequencies, which don't need a satelite or anything. They just need to tune into the same one and be in range of the amplifier (2 miles), so they will work fine. Kind of like a wireless telephone. It works wherever you go (so long as you can plug it in to those weird sockets anyway).
Huh? There is no 'amplifier'. These radios talk directly to each other. And to answer some other people who comment that "2 miles isn't good enough. I bought a pair that have a 5 mile range".... Let me explain radio propogation. First off, these and other consumer radios work by what's called line of sight. If you can SEE the person, you'll be able to talk to them with this radio. More watts (power) help go through any non solid obstruction. If there's a huge hill between you and the other person, even if you're half a mile away, you won't hear each other. People have used radios that were less than 1/10th of 1 watt to talk to the SPACE SHUTTLE. How? Because of line of sight. Radio manufacturers generally claim one mile per watt - 1 watt, 1 mile. 5 watts, 5 miles. In the perfect conditions - sure. In reality? No. I use a Public Safety ($1000 Motorola) radio using 5 watts, and I get under average condition, 3 miles if I'm lucky. I have a 50 watt radio mounted in my car with an external antenna, and I won't get 50 miles out of it talking to someone else with another 50 watt radio in their car. There is a difference between 2 and 5 watts. But if you're that far away, it won't be the difference between "I can't hear you" and "Wow! You sound like you're right next door!" - it would be "I can barely hear you, you sound scratchy" and "Wow, you sound good." Let's be honest - for this price, don't expect to be able to talk across town, but at a mall or outdoor event, you should be fine.
I bought these the last time (silver w/o the nipple in the middle); I don't think they are all that great but the clock is a nice feature. They keep good time. You can have them for the $20 I paid shipping included.
I'm in for one. Last time I was in Europe they came in very handy. Me and my wife love to hike and this way we can splitup without having to make a timed spot. Thanks woot.
I wonder if the next woot will be batteries for this 2 Pack. The seem to all go together. :)

Very Lloyd Cole'ish Woot Cast. That alone made it worth the price of admission.
How the heck does Woot find enough suckers to buy 3200 of these things?

Cadmium, as in Ni-Cads, is bad stuff. There's a recycling program just for NiCd batteries.

Wouldn't it suck if Woot didn't ship him the items? :-D
You were one day early oh Elpepe the Soothsayer. Tell us around what drinking fountain to hang so that we too may know the future !!
I went to the company mailroom to pick up a non-Woot package, and what do my wondering eyes should appear, but four brightly-colored FRS radios, dear! Wow -- I guess they wanted to clear out the inventory before the Woot-off. Never even got a tracking number-- my account still says "You're all set now". Of course, I have the added advantage of shipping my Woots less than 10 miles, or 20 miles if it goes to FedEx' DFW hub and then back to Carrollton. Now, I've only got one problem... what am I going to *do* with these things? Our family has three cell phones already, for cryin' out loud, and they're all in-network -- free calls between us, whether we're 2 miles away or 2000. I think this is my first case of Wootus Reflexiosum -- the reflexive clicking of the "I Want One" button even though you know you don't have any real need for the item. Well, there's always eBay... and no, I won't "recycle" Woot's hard work. Geez. That guy's a "Bride of Chucky" without the "B".

Berlin producer/DJ Thomas Gold makes and plays the type of tunes that make club light techs feel like they earned their paychecks. Gold's selections — an assortment of original productions, bootleg edits, and mashups — are a style of build/climax/breakdown/climax progressive house tunes that practically beg the control-booth staff to ride the strobe lights. Gold plays it unabashedly populist, melding swatches of pop-leaning dance music (Lady Gaga, Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia, Avicii) with more aggressively driving electro-house inflections, finished with trance's climbing melodies and playful synth stabs. Explorative moments of minimal tech-house or soulful deep house will be absent, but fans of stadium-sized, pounding tracks will find Gold's enthusiasm contagious.

A hideous gangly creature, usually depicted as an emaciated humanoid covered in stripes of assorted colors. It is outfitted with earhorns and a caudal appendage, crooked in posture and personality, hell-bent on being the most kickass piece of tail to hit this side of the broad red barn. Also used to describe person(s) with similar traits, or aspects of 'Woogality/Wooglism' "Gosh dayum, that's some hot Woogle, johnny."

He is the lead whale photographer and marine mammal specialist for the National Geographic Society, which has featured his photos and audio tracks of humpback and killer whales in numerous magazines and television specials since 1976. He is a cofounder of Whale Trust and the author of several books.
Advance Reviews
Flip Nicklins work reaches us on a profound level: his images inspire. They make us feel hopeful, passionate, engaged, transported, alive. He takes us under the surface with him, into a universe where we have front row seats to the most magical and wonderful giants on our planet, allowing us to witness an otherwise unimaginable marine world. With his talent and vision, Flip singlehandedly took underwater photographyand marine mammal photojournalism in generalto an entirely new level. Flip is, simply, the best of the very best.
Flip Nicklin is my favorite marine mammal, and one to whom I am grateful beyond measure. As a colleague on National Geographic assignments, he guided me down into the underwater realm and shared the secrets he has spent so many years uncovering there. As an author, he does the same for readers in this revelatory tale of a life like no other among the biggest and most mysterious beings on the planet.

You bastards! Green Day isn't meaningless!!! What do you think Wake Me Up When September Ends in about? HIS FATHER'S DEATH! What do you think Good Riddance Time Of Your Life is about? HIS GIRLFRIEND WHO MOVED TO ECUADOR! I could go on FOREVER! Now I don't listen to Evanescence at all, but I'm sure there ARE emotional songs by them. But don't just start thinking that Green Day is some lame-o punk rock band. Their songs have deep meanings to them!!! Why not go google Green Day song meanings for proof?
I've heard some of their songs, but they don't get their point across like Evanescence does. If Green Day has deep emotion in their song, then they've made it really, really subtle. And there's no need to go off the handle.

EU to double bailout fund for non-euro members
Brussels, March 20 (DPA) European Union (EU) leaders Friday agreed to double to 50 billion euros ($67.7 billion) a fund designed to prop up the currencies in member states which do not use the euro, EU diplomats said.
At their regular spring summit in Brussels, EU leaders agreed to a joint statement welcoming the European Commission's, the executive body of the EU, 'intention to present a proposal to double the ceiling for the union's support facility for balance-of-payments assistance,' sources close to the meeting told DPA.
At the same time, top officials rejected reports that the European Central Bank had set up a similar facility to bail out countries which use the euro and which face the risk of default.
'This help cannot be given to euro members: the EU treaty forbids it. It cannot happen that a euro country defaults,' the influential head of the eurogroup, Luxembourg premier Jean-Claude Juncker, said as he arrived at Friday's meeting.
The support facility is a special EU system for borrowing money on the international markets to help non-euro-members keep their national finances from default. It is handled by the European Commission.
The leaders' decision follows a call from key figures, including Juncker and the head of the commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, to double the fund in case further countries need it.
And it strengthens immeasurably the latest draft of the summit declaration, drawn up overnight to Friday, which had simply said that EU members should 'keep under review' the size of the fund.
It is the second time in three months that the bloc has doubled the size of its bailout system, which until the autumn was capped at 12 billion euros.
Since then, the EU has pumped over nine billion euros from the fund to keep Latvia and Hungary afloat, while Romania has asked for some seven billion euros in support.
Politicians who backed a further doubling of the facility said that it was important to send a strong signal that the EU was ready to bail out its weakest members.
'The resources in the balance-of-payments fund must be made ready,' Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann said as he arrived at Friday's meeting.
But others warned that a decision to double the fund immediately could spook markets, as the currently-known demands for help are well below the fund's limit of $25 billion - leaving the question open of why the limit should be lifted.
Latvia is already reported to be preparing a demand for an even larger bailout package, while Bulgaria is also rumoured to be planning an appeal to the fund.
Bulgarian Prime Minister Sergei Stanishev said Thursday that his country did not need a bailout.

State Department Supports Egyptian IMF Loan Request
At a press briefing on August 23, State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland confirmed U.S. support for Egypt's $4.8 billion loan request to the IMF. She outlined Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's commitment to a three-stage process which would allow Egypt to address its budgetary concerns. The plan, which included an IMF visit to Egypt, incorporates U.S. economic aid and the promotion of U.S. business investment in the country. IMF director general Christine Lagarde has been reluctant to reveal specifics on a potential loan for Egypt, but she reiterated that serious economic and political reform must accompany any financial package. The loan would allow authorities to address short-term economic issues associated with rising food prices and high unemployment, yet "it is the Egyptian people who will cough up [the money]," says Ibrahim Eissa of Al-Tahrir newspaper.
While Egypt's leaders look for ways to bridge their budget deficit, an advisory body to the country's constitutional court is expected to wrap up its deliberations on parliament next week. Their report will recommend whether or not parliament's upper house should be disbanded, allowing the court to set a date to determine the legality of the chamber's election law. At the same time, Egypt's attorney general ordered an investigation of Mohamed Abu-Hamed, a former lawmaker, over claims that he encouraged the downfall of the current regime by leading a protest march on August 24 against President Mohamed Morsi.
Finally, an opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times implored the Obama Administration to continue to press Egyptian leaders on democratic reform, respect for minority rights, and continuation of their international obligations. The article encouraged President Barack Obama to make use of President Morsi's visit to the U.S. next month as an opportunity to emphasize the importance of Egypt's commitment to democracy.

By Standard Digital Reporter
Former advisor to Prime Minister Raila Odinga Miguna Miguna has disowned a Face book account bearing his names, images, book promos and video clips and asked the public to 'ignore and treat it as mischievous.'
In the alleged posts on his 'Face book page' Miguna had answered issues raised by veteran journalist Sarah Elderkin about his relations with Raila while he served as advisor on coalition affairs.
Miguna clarified: "Let me also make it clear that I do not have a Face book account, have never used that platform to communicate and have no intentions of doing so any time soon. Consequently, purported Face book publications bearing my name should be ignored as mischievous."
Miguna said he and his family arrived safely in Toronto Canada and recanted media reports that he fled into exile or was running away from justice.
Said Miguna: "I am particularly disturbed by fake and false media reports that I had fled into exile. Some desperate political goons for hire have even claimed that I have 'fled from justice.' There have been suggestions that I have fled because of law suits and potential arrest. By the time I left Kenya, I had not been served with any legal notices or law suits. In any event, neither could have prevented me from traveling."
The author of Peeling Back the Mask said "I boarded my flight at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on July 16, 2012, like any other passenger."
In response to the Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko, Miguna said "I have earned a living practicing law for more than 15 years. Therefore, a lawsuit isn't something I run away from. Nor would I be scared of an incompetent, misguided and delusional political announcement to the media by the director of public prosecutions that I should record a statement with the Kenya Police."
He argued the DPP has no mandate over the International Criminal Court.
"Instead of issuing threats to me - someone he considers a potential witness – the Witness Protection Act compels him to provide me with protection. Threatening me over the media is a clear breach. Consequently, I will treat his politically motivated statement with the contempt it deserves."
Miguna was not happy with the burning of his effigy in Nyando and remarked; "When I see ravenous mobs burn my effigy, bury a coffin symbolizing my death and threatening me, my immediate and extended family merely because I wrote a book that they perceive to be critical of their political deity even though, in all likelihood, they might not have read; it demonstrates a level of intolerance, ignorance and base loyalty to certain political personages in a manner that cannot be positive."
He accused the PM of failing to deter his fanatical supporters from acts of intolerance.

Convicted killer gets life in '11 murder of Ridley neighbor
MEDIA COURTHOUSE — Convicted killer James Dellavecchia was sentenced to life in prison without the chance of parole for the 2011 shooting death of his neighbor Scott Robins.
The 74-year-old Dellavecchia was convicted in September of first-degree murder and of criminal attempt homicide and aggravated assault for critically wounding Kristen Snow, Robins' 23-year-old stepdaughter, outside of their Folsom home Oct. 10.
Snow, who was shot when she came outside to check on Robins early that morning, addressed the court prior to sentencing.
Ridley Township police Lt. Scott Willoughby called Snow's remarks "heart wrenching."
"She talked about her multiple injuries, her continuing operations, and the two major operations she is still facing," Willoughby said. "She spoke about what Mr. Dellavecchia took from her, that she will never be able to bear children or walk down the aisle with her (step)father."
Prosecutors portrayed Dellavecchia as waiting in ambush outside Robins' home in the 900 block of Sylvania Avenue, in the pre-dawn hours of Oct. 10. A longtime resident of Folsom with a reputation for having a short temper, Dellavecchia was upset with the noise Robins had made while building a backyard shed.
It was about 6:10 a.m. Oct. 10 when Robins, a master mechanic for a sprinkler company, walked out of his house toward his van parked in the driveway. A co-worker, an apprentice mechanic, was sitting in the van's passenger seat, drinking coffee waiting for Robins to drive him to work.
"He was waiting there for him," Ridley Township Detective Lt. Scott Willoughby said of Dellavecchia, at the time of his arrest.
Robins was shot four times. The co-worker jumped out of the van, rolled underneath, then fled.
Snow was inside when she heard gunshots. She went outside and saw Robins on the ground. Dellavecchia allegedly fired again, striking Snow in the abdomen. Continued...
When police arrived at the scene, Snow was on the ground, critically wounded but still conscious. She too told police that she had been shot by Dellavecchia, the affidavit states.
In sentencing Dellavecchia, Judge Michael F.X. Coll chastised the convicted killer for his lack of remorse, and said the sentence would ensure he'd never set foot outside of prison walls.
Willoughby credited Cpl. Michael Bongiorno, who was first on the scene, and heard Robins' dying declaration that Dellavecchia was the gunman.
"I'd also like to comment the patrol division for their quick response and the detective division for the thorough job that led to the conviction and sentencing we were hoping for," Willoughby said.
Several people from Robins' family addressed the court. Dellavecchia's wife was in the courtroom, but did not speak.
When the sentencing hearing was completed, a woman in the courtroom shouted out to Dellavecchia, "I hope you rot in hell."

Question/Topic for Sep/Oct 2012
What research do you do before selecting a home care aide for your loved one either directly or through an agency?
Name: tj Location: wv Date: 10/05/2012 Time: 06:49 AM
I always check references, I ask for at least 3 references. I check with the better buisness bureau regarding an agency.
Name: Roxanne Noble RN,CCM Location: Wilmington NC Date: 10/04/2012 Time: 11:39 AM
Finding the right home care aid is extremely important. In my business, I often need "just the right mix" of clinical expertise with personal ability, warmth,caring and personality to work with a client and fit seamlessly into the household. I start with identifying exactly what medical/clinical and care the aid will be doing Secondly - I assess what type of person the client would feel comfortable with - this involves a conversation with the client as to the preference of a male or female. There are several companies I go to with exact needs for the aid according to my assessment of the client's needs and desires as well as comforts. I acuratly describe the "perfect aid" to them to see if they have a person fitting the personality and clinical requirements for the job. Depending on the need for a very experienced aid or a new employee, I will discuss the past job experiences the aid has had as well as what type of clients they are presently working with. I request to meet them and talk with them about the needs of the client often checking their responses for clinical knowledge and reactions to particular situations they may be involved with in the home. I also ask for references and check those This process can be time consuming but is worth the extra care prior to hiring. Getting the righ tperson the first time allows for a good start and allows the caregiving relationship to go forward without stops and starts Also- I repeat the process to find a backup home aid in the case of illness or personal need to take time off of the first aid so we are covered for all possibilities possible

Sneak preview of Feadship's new concept design |
By Maarten Janssen
Once again, visitors of the Monaco Yacht Show, held from September 19-22, will be wowed at the Feadship stand, where the Dutch yard will unveil their yearly Concept model. Every year, the designers at Feadship De Voogt speculate on how the next generation of superyachts might look like, but this year's concept comes with a twist... a client!
Last week I was lucky enough to be given a sneak preview of this year's concept model, which has taken superyacht design to a whole new level. Without revealing too much at this stage, I can tell you that the design features include large superstructure overhangs, an incredible crow's nest for the best views possible, and a radical bridge design, never seen before on a yacht.
As an added bonus, the yard's proud client will accompany Feadship during the show, to answer any question you may have about this yet unnamed project.

New Body of Work by British Artist Marc Quinn at White Cube
Marc Quinn, Buck & Allanah, 2009. Orbital sanded and flap wheeled lacquered bronze, 65 3/4 x 41 5/16 x 17 11/16 in. (167 x 105 x 45 cm) © the artist. Photo: Roger Wooldridge. Courtesy White Cube.
The White Cube
Hoxton Square presents a new body of work by British artist Marc Quinn. Entitled 'Allanah, Buck, Catman, Chelsea, Michael, Pamela and Thomas', the exhibition brings together new sculptures executed in marble, bronze and silver, depicting people who have undergone extreme levels of plastic surgery and transformation including hormone therapy, tattoos, piercing, skin bleaching, hair dying as well as implants and transplants.
Quinn has always been interested in the public's obsession with the body, its perfections and flaws, and how this obsession has led some people to alter their bodies in increasingly extreme ways. 'The Complete Marbles' series was an investigation of 'imperfect' bodies, and in 'Evolution', he examined the point when one's physical identity begins to emerge. Quinn's new sculptures, as Joachim Pissarro has noted in his catalogue essay to accompany the exhibition, are portraits of people who 'exemplify a disconnect between body and soul' and who 'open up a provocative new chapter in [Quinn's] exploration of the relationship between corporeality and spirituality - fundamentally addressing the notion of identity by asking: is one more or less one's self after cosmetic surgery?'
Quinn's new models range from characters such as the tabloid favourite 'Catman' (Dennis Avner, who has been tattooed to look like a cat) and 'the pregnant man' (Thomas Beatie) to niche porn stars such as Buck, a 'man with a pussy', and Allanah Starr, a man who has changed her body into the idealisation of femininity even though she also has a penis. Although all modelled from life, these bodies seem to exist beyond the normal boundaries of classification - appearing almost 'trans-gender', or 'trans-corporeal' - throwing the very notion of identity into question, exposing it as a fragile, complex and multi-layered construction, interminably co-existent with their external physical selves.
Quinn's portrait sculpture 'Buck & Allanah' depicts the couple standing hand in hand, like a latter day Adam and Eve, striding out into their future as radically altered beings. The sculpture of Thomas Beatie depicts him at full-term pregnancy, shyly bowing his head and cradling his stomach with two hands, appearing like a masculine Virgin Mary, displaying some kind of miraculous conception.
Quinn has also made sculptures of celebrities. Pamela Anderson is depicted in polished bronze, doubled at the shoulder with an identical alter ego, as if part of a conjoined twin, her face staring at the ceiling in a state of ecstasy. Two large heads of Michael Jackson are carved out of black, white and red marble. The two sculptures work in dialectical opposition - depicting Jackson as he is most well known after numerous surgical interventions, one with a black face, the other white.
The exhibition will also include a new series of flower paintings executed in reversed colour and two huge orchid sculptures in white painted bronze, installed in Hoxton Square, opposite the gallery.
Marc Quinn has exhibited in many group exhibitions internationally including Sonsbeek '93, Arnhem (1993), Give and Take, V&A, London (2001), Statements 7, 50th Venice Biennale (2003) and Gwangju Biennale (2004). Solo exhibitions include Tate Gallery, London (1995), Kunstverein Hannover (1999), Fondazione Prada, Milan (2000), Tate Liverpool (2002), Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin (2004), Groninger Museum, Groningen (2006) and MACRO, Rome (2006), DHC/ART Fondation pour l'art contemporain, Montréal (2007) and Fondation Beyeler, Basel (2009).
