Tested, tallied, ridden, redlined and ranked – the 100 best things in the world right now
100 Best Things
By MH Staff - Posted on 2nd December 2011
Tested, tallied, ridden, redlined and ranked – the 100 best things in the world right now
1 Forever Ceramic Kitchen Knife
There are all sorts of good reasons why chefs in the know are making the move from steel to ceramic knives. Ceramic is much lighter, it doesn't rust and it's also chemically neutral, so it can't affect the taste or colour of the food. But for us the clincher is that it's much harder than steel, so it doesn't need the same regular sharpening that can become such a chore.
Yuppiechef, 0861 987 743,
It may look like a reasonable executive sedan, but once you look closer, you'll start noticing the heart-raising details. Flared wheel arches with 20-inch profile tyres, a low-slung sprinter's stance, huge brake discs, the gaping air inlets and, of course, the hallowed "M" badge in a few places. It's like putting Pierre Spies in a suit, then giving him a jab of adrenaline. It's packed with enough tech to rival a space shuttle, but, most importantly, the twin turbo V8 is a piece of mechanical genius, capable of 412kw of physics-altering power. And the proof is in the tarmac-based pudding: the M5 broke the eight-minute time record at Nürburgring (which is the same time as the Ferrari F430). R1 155 076 (includes VAT and CO2 tax)

3 Fujifilm Instax Mini 50S
The latest trend in photo-graphy is to shoot with your phone, and use filter apps to add flavour. This sharp little camera will have you experimenting to create your own real-life Instagrams. It has a 60mm lens, but also comes with a removable close-focus lens that lets you shoot objects just an inch away. Since you can take pics without having to worry if they'll end up on Facebook, it may make her a whole lot more comfortable to take her clothes off.
Fujifilm, 011 991 0600, www.fujifilm.co.za
4 Nokia Lumia 800
Google recently announced new bed partner Motorola and now Nokia has put their money on the software giant's Windows 7 platform. The second version is dubbed Mango and it's brilliant, with live tiles, deep social networking integration, killer email and rock-solid stability. Combine that with the gorgeous form factor of the N9, and it could be the most interesting iPhone alternative yet.

Cellucity, 021 401 1300,
5 Yamaha ISX-800 Restio
Many sound docks have the looks of a melted lump of black butter. As bold as the Restio is in the looks department, it lies unobtrusively flush against a wall on a stand, only nine-centimetre deep. On the technical side there's a slot-loading CD player, USB connection, FM radio and dedicated digital iPod dock with IntelliAlarm to gently waken you over the two-way, four-speaker system.
Balanced Audio, 011 259 7800,
6 Husqvarna Automower 210C
You promised to mow the lawn, and you would do it gladly, if it weren't for that wretched idleness. No problem, throw a good few grand at the problem and you have a robot that does it for you. The lift and tilt sensors and setting panel let you personalise it to suit your garden and, if something goes wrong, it'll send you an SMS. Above all, it's electric so it won't disturb that nap.
Husqvarna, 0860 048 759,
7 Sea-Doo RXT-X 260 RS Jet Ski
This beast of a machine rockets you and two bikini-clad babes from zero to hero (well, 48km/h) in just 1.7 seconds, thanks to the high-output, supercharged Rotax 4-TEC engine. But as the saying goes, speed is nothing without control, which is why Sea-Doo has also equipped it with their stick-like-glue S3 hull and new Intelligent Brake and Reverse (iBR) technology, currently the world's only on-water breaking system.
Sea-Doo, 011 462 4390,
8 Cineskates
Every now and then, someone comes along with a simple, but incredibly astounding idea that revolutionises their industry. CineSkates is one of them. Place your SLR or smartphone on a little moving rig that lets you film or shoot pics on a moving plane as if you had a proper film dolly set-up. It's hard to explain, so watch the explanatory vid at www.cinetics.com. Very impressive.

9 Specialized Wiretap biking glove
Full-finger gloves are often essential equipment, but can be very annoying when attempting to operate a touchscreen phone. Specialized's WireTap technology acts as a conductor allowing the wearer full use of a capacitive screen. One of cycling's top innovations of the year.
Specialized, 083 462 9628,
10 Sandisk Ultra USB flash drive
You may not think that there is much that can be done to make a USB stick different from its competitors besides offering more gigs of memory, but you'd be wrong. This little thumb drive has a back-up button that, once plugged in and pushed, instantly saves all your files. You can even pretend that you're a secret agent stealing state secrets. Or you can stick with reality and just save your most important work files, photos and music. This little flash stick shows that sometimes, the simplest ideas can be the smartest ones.
Dion Wired, 0861 39 2273,
11 Longines Legend Diver
Screw up your eyes and look at the dive watches of today. You'll be hard-pushed to tell them apart – chunky case, fat markings, unidirectional outside bezel and absurd depth ratings seem to be the recipe most manufacturers stick to. This is why we love the Legend Diver reissue, with its sleeker case, finer numerals and the bezel positioned under the glass. And that the respected L633 (ETA 2824/2) automatic movement can be found in watches twice the price. And 300m water-resistance is likely to be sufficient for a paddle at Clifton Beach.
Swatch Group, 011 911 1200,
12 Canon EF 100-400mm L IS USM lens
Yes, the name's a mouthful, but it also contains a goldmine of information: EF is the lens mount, which means it's compatible with your Canon DSLR; 100-400mm is the focal length, a good telephoto zoom that's ideal for wildlife and sports photography; L tells you that this is one of their top-of-the-range "Luxury" lenses (also indicated by the white finish); IS means there's an image stabiliser for sharper images; while the ultrasonic motor (USM) provides quiet and fast autofocusing. All of this should help justify
the rather large price tag and make this top of your Christmas wish list. R18 999
Canon, 011 265 4900, www.canon.co.za
13 LowePro Flipside 200
This DSLR camera backpack simultaneously takes care of two leading causes of shutterbug insurance claims: theft and damage. The trick? The camera and lenses can only be accessed by taking the pack off and unzipping the back panel, which means there's no chance of them being pilfered or dropped. R850
Orms, 021 465 3573,
14 Inov-8 Roclite 400 GTX hiking boots
Go ahead: chop the handle off your toothbrush, eat two-minute noodles every night and follow the example of hikers in the know by investing in a pair of lightweight boots. They don't come lighter than the Roclite 400, which, says Inov-8, is the world's lightest leather Gore-Tex boot at just 800g per pair! R1 850
INOV-8, 011 663 2700, www.inov-8.co.za
15 Veho 360 portable Bluetooth speaker
If you're over tangled cables us much as we are, then you'll love this little portable speaker, which connects to your MP3 player or music-enabled cellphone via Bluetooth.
The sound is surprisingly potent for something that fits in your back pocket, and it's also rechargeable, so no more wasting money on batteries.
GL Agencies, 011 792 1097,
16 Adidas Terrex Hybrid Jacket
This multifunctional soft shell is a slick combination of cutting-edge insulation, space-age wind-stopping materials and patented ventilation panels. Its snug fit comes courtesy of a performance-based cut called Formotion, that allows for any kind of movement. The garment weighs just 350g and its eye-popping blue colour marks it as different from the dull blacks, greys and browns found in most other jackets.
Adidas, 021 422 6200, www.adidas.co.za
17 Project Skateboards LCG Freeriding Deck
LCG stands for "low centre of gravity". Which is exactly what the distinctive dropped platform serves up. By bringing your weight in closer to the asphalt you not only enjoy greater traction; the grooves on either end help lock your feet in place for improved control while you're gunning down the hill. R900
Project Skateboards, 084 038 5179, www.projectskateboards.co.za
18 Sony OLED 3D Goggles
If your parents were worried that TV and gaming would hijack your brain, they must have instinctively known that this futuristic set of eyewear was on its way. Don't forget to eat. Approx R8 000
Sony, 011 690 3555, www.sony.co.za
19 LG Solardom microwave oven
The reality is that time often doesn't allow for Jamie Oliveresque culinary indulgences. That's why LG's new SolarDOM is such a winner. Combining conventional and microwave oven technologies with their new "Light Wave heating system", this super-fast oven has the ability to reach up to 320°C in just five minutes (while using up to 50% less energy).

LG, 0800 545 454, www.lg.com/za
20 The Unbelievable Saw
Of course there's a strong argument for why the whirring blades and two-stroke fumes of a genuine chainsaw are infinitely more satisfying. But, then again, a genuine chainsaw can't fit in your back pocket or be used in tight spaces such as corners or close to a wall. And while the Unbelievable Saw isn't quite as speedy, the high-strength steel, bi-directional cutting teeth still make light work of trunks and branches up to 20cm thick. R350
Unbelievable Saw, 083 443 3887,
21 Leatherman Sidekick
The world might have become obsessed with "belt tightening", but Leatherman is doing its best to make sure that there's one of their multitools strapped to as many of those belts as possible. That's the rationale behind their latest model, the Sidekick, which comes with 15 essentials functions, a stainless-steel body and Leatherman's legendary 25-year warranty, all at a wallet-friendly price tag. R550
Awesome Tools, 021 981 6672, www.awesometools.co.za
22 Scott Foil
Team Mercedes Petronas hired out their wind tunnel to former F1 aero-dynamicist Simon Smart for over 100 expensive hours. A teardrop-shaped frame may perform best at cheating wind in perfect conditions, but with his findings, Smart advised Scott to use truncated sections with lopped-off tails to cope with the real-world turbulences riders encounter on the road. It worked for Mark Cavendish, who won several Tour de France stages on a prototype version in 2010. R52 900
Probike, 041 404 8500, www.scott-sports.com
23 Zartek ZA-180 mini action camera
You don't need to be Spielberg to work out that the pack-of-gum-sized ZA-180 is unlikely to win you any Oscars. But if it's an affordable and lightweight action cam you're after then this is just the ticket. It's small enough to clip directly to your belt or shirt for great POV video of you running the bulls at Pamplona, and if you are unlucky enough to get trampled underfoot/hoof then it's good to know that it won't cost you an arm or a leg to replace it. R750
Zartek, 011 640 2460, www.zartek.co.za
24 Adidas TOUR360 ATV
If you're serious about your golf score, you can't hack around with old gear. This Tour360 ATV (which stands for All-Terrain Versatility) has been shoehorned with scientific engineering to achieve a few important goals: they're flexible enough to adapt to any surface, lie or angle; the 10-spike configuration on the low-profile sole provides proper traction and, lastly, the strengthened mid-foot and 360 wrap tech helps plant your feet when you swing. These shoes will do more for your game than Tiger's caddie.
Adidas, 021 442 6200, www.adidas.co.za
25 Black Diamond Storm headlamp
Black Diamond settled on "Storm", but "dropped-in-puddle" or "owner-fell-in-river" would have been equally appropriate appellations thanks to the IPX-7 waterproof rating.
It can happily be submerged in a metre of water for 30 minutes. Combine this ruggedness with a potent 100 lumen output and you've got a headlamp for adventure racing or paddling. R499
Ram Mountaineering, 021 532 0549, www.rammountain.co.za
26 Lifeventure Packable Duffle
Sod's Law of Travelling proclaims that you will have more stuff at the end of the trip than the beginning, even if you resisted buying that knock-off pair of sunnies and the soapstone lemur. You could fork out for a new suitcase at duty-free, or reach for this Lifeventure Packable Duffle. It fits comfortably into your hand luggage when closed, but opens up to provide 65 glorious litres of extra packing space. R379
Duesouth, 021 938 1911,
27 Samsung Fridge & Freezer
Look past the daft product name (RL52VWBIH) and you'll see that this fridge is pretty damn impressive, especially when you look at the price tag. It's got sleek looks, antibacterial coatings, water dispenser (every man needs one), anti-frost build-up and, the tech kicker, LED lighting in the interior which saves space, power and lights
up your midnight snack like sunshine. R7 999
Samsung, 0860 726 786,
28 Logitech H800 Wireless Headset
This little portable wireless headset connects easily to tablets, smartphones and PCs, switching effortlessly between them. The rechargeable battery lasts six hours, and the range works up to 12m away. The headset uses laser-tuned drivers and a built-in equaliser to provide smooth, rich digital stereo, and a noise-cancelling microphone to reduce background noise. R1 699
Incredible Connection, 0860 011 700, www.incredible.co.za
29 Powermat charging mat
If you've ever thought of taking anger management classes after expressing your irrational hatred of tangled wires, you're not alone. In fact the guys at Platinum Micro took matters so far that they made a device that eliminated them. BlackBerry or iPhone, GPS or MP3 player, it charges them all. R599
Platinum Micro, 011 553 2600, www.platinummicro.co.za
30 Samsung BD-D7500 3D Blu-ray player
Sure, you'll be amazed at the vivid definition on your LED display, but the player that the 3D HD picture is coming out of looks so good, you'll want to hang it on the wall. Just as well then that it comes with brackets. It's Wi-Fi enabled, too. R3 499
Samsung, 0860 726 786,
31 Jawbone Jambox portable Wireless Speaker
Not only does this slim, sleek little boombox win points for its beautiful design, the sound quality that it projects is brilliant. The ease at which this Jambox is set up marks it as the leader in the quickly-expanding industry. It's potent too, being able to push out up to 85 decibels of crisp, balanced sound thanks to a pair of incredibly sophisticated, proprietary acoustic drivers that could even impress a few NASA engineers. If you want to free your life from cables and take high-quality sound wherever you go, this is what you need to stuff in your Xmas stocking. R2 250
Expansys, 076 847 5572, www.expansys.co.za
32 Sony Bloggie 3D
It's no surprise that, like an unmissable, nail-biting, action-packed sports event or action movie, real-life content is especially compelling in 3D. Capture it all in full 1080p HD 3D video with this pocket-sized and simpleton-friendly wonder. With its built-in USB plug,
you could've had it uploaded, even before the cops pull up to end the party. R2 500
Sony, 011 690 3555, www.sony.co.za
33 Polar RCX5
New from the leaders in exercise technology, Polar now offer a cleverly designed, slimmer and more legible heart-rate monitor for the multisport fanatic. A wide range of
accessory and software options ensure workouts are fully optimised. Not bad looking either. R3 899 (R1 495 extra for GPS unit)
Polar, 011 805 1028,
34 Nikon 1 V1 camera
If the name V1 sounds entirely unfamiliar, that's because it is. The flagship of Nikon's One series – a new mirrorless system developed to combine the versatility of a DSLR with the convenience of a point-and-shoot – features a 10MP CMOS sensor, magnesium alloy body and a selection of dedicated One Nikkor lenses to complete the compact package. From R9 700
Nikon, 0861 164 566, www.nikon.co.za
35 Wacom Inkling
The inkling is a seriously smart little device that turns any pad or piece of paper into a sketchpad. How does it work? Simply use the digital sketch pen's ballpoint to draw your masterpiece on paper, and then the clip-on reader records all the strokes as raster or vector artwork into your chosen graphics program via USB. This could help you make your big art break... or just let you draw cool pics. Either way, you're winning, Picasso. R1 800
Digicape, 0860 105 155, www.digicape.co.za
36 K-Way Hydrogen jacket
It's no coincidence that Cape Union Mart chose this name for their new active shell. Hydrogen is the lightest of all the elements, and the Hydrogen jacket is the lightest in the K-Way range. This is not a shell for taking up Mount Kilimanjaro; it's designed specifically for runners and cyclists who want something that's both wind-proof and highly breathable. Nifty features include reflective taps for safety and an MP3 player pocket with outlet port for your headphones.
Cape Union Mart, 0860 034 000,
37 Drift HD 170 Action Camera
The Drift HD has everything we want in a helmet cam: an LCD screen for setting up the shot before you set off down the single track; a wireless remote control, which can be mounted to the handlebars for easy recording; and – importantly – professional grade 1080p/30 fps and 720p/60 fps video, so your mates can watch you falling off your bike in full high-definition. R3 750
Action Cameras, 082 559 7786,
38 Samsung MV800 Compact Camera
The hey-wow feature on Samsung's new MV800 is definitely the flip-out LCD screen, which takes the guess factor out of taking shots where it would normally be impossible to see the display: things like self portraits for Facebook, arty stuff such as an ant's point of view of the Eiffel Tower, or those inevitable compromising boys'-night-out photos, all in wide-angle, 16:1 megapixel glory. R2 949
Samsung, 0860 726 786, www.samsung.com
39 Sony PS Vita hand-held gaming
The PSP's update (which can control a PS3 console, no doubt hinting towards a PS4 release) tells a big story with a long list of specs: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and a 3G option. A capacitive five-inch OLED multi-touchscreen can be controlled by a touch sensitive back without your fat fingers blocking the screen. It's backwards-compatible with PSP games and they'll be up-scaled, with a smoothing filter to reduce pixilation. The downside? Release only expected in the first quarter of 2012. Approx R3 500
Sony, 011 690 3555, www.playstation.com
40 LED Lenser X21 Torch
Of course it's not the sensible choice. Nobody except game rangers or US marines actually need a torch that delivers a beam rated to 1 000 lumens that can blind an insurgent from over half a kilometre away. But that's beside the point. We want it. R2 900
Awesome Tools, 021 981 6672,
41 Saeco Xsmall Coffee Machine
There are some things that Italians just do best: leather brogues, sports cars, talking with their hands and coffee. This machine grinds the beans and serves up two creamy espressos at the touch of a button. R5 999
Italian Lifestyle, 0861 172 326, www.italianlifestyle.co.za
42 Steripen Adventurer Opti
Bear Grylls-types might choose to purify their drinking water by filtering it through their socks. We prefer to use the Adventurer Opti. It's quick (just 90 seconds to treat one litre of water) and significantly more effective thanks to the ultraviolet light wand, that deletes all water-borne nasties including viruses and protozoa. Our only caution is that it's battery powered, so consider buying the accompanying solar charger. R1 000
Ram Mountaineering, 021 532 0549, www.rammountain.co.za
43 TomTom GO Live Top Gear Edition
Idling bumper-to-bumper on the N1 during rush hour might not be quite as fun as tearing around the Top Gear racetrack in a DB9, but it's certainly more tolerable with this device stuck to your windscreen. Like other TomTom Go Live units it assists with navigation, while giving you live traffic updates and speed camera warnings. The difference here is that it's Jeremy Clarkson's voice giving the instructions, so you feel just like the Stig as you take the off-ramp at 17km/h.
TomTom, 0800 980 670,
44 Griffin Beacon Universal Remote
Universal remotes aren't for everybody. But if you're a) forever losing the control; b) a devotee of minimalist living; or c) the proud owner of a device with an Apple logo on the back (specifically the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) then the Beacon is for you. Set-up is straightforward, and involves downloading the free app, pairing the remote with your device via Bluetooth and following the prompts. Dump all the old remotes in the bottom drawer with your CDs, video cassettes and other abandoned tech dinosaurs.
Core, 011 535 9000, www.core.co.za
45 SeaLife Mini 2 dive camera
What distinguishes this dive camera from other underwater models? For one, it's properly waterproof (40m, say SeaLife), so you can actually take it scuba diving, as opposed to splashing around in the breakers. But the real clincher is the clever colour-correction software: because red light is filtered out the deeper you go, underwater photographs often come out with a strong blue cast. The Mini 2 automatically adjusts, so you and your mates don't end up looking like Smurfs.
Scubapro, 011 444 6563,
46 Sony Ericsson Active
It's a fully weatherproof Android smartphone. Some may baulk at the thought of answering an email on a trail, but it's also ANT+ enabled, which connects with a power
metre and heart-rate strap to use the powerful exercise app. It features an MP3 player and GPS tracking, so you'll be lost in your music and not in the mountains.
Cellucity, 021 401 1300
47 Epson Mg-850 Projector
Docks allow you to take a party wherever you go, and now you can take a cinema too. Slide in your iDevice and project your movies or music videos in HD 720p resolution onto a white wall. Plus the microphone input allows you to narrate or break into some impromptu karaoke. By shutting off the projector, it doubles as an audio dock too, playing through stereo 10-watt speakers. R6 999
Epson, 0860 337 766, www.epson.com
48 HP Beats by Dr Dre laptop
Asus may have started a trend with its NX90 with speakers by Bang & Olufsen. But in one phone call, the HP guys reached cool status when they rang up legendary hip-hop producer Dr Dre to ask for his expertise. The result is an entertainment-biased device with a Beats by Monster sound system. Time to educate your fellow office dwellers with your impeccable taste in music. R12 799
HP, 0800 118 883, www.hpshop.co.za
49 Adidas F50 Adizero MiCoach
Lets be honest here – you still feel you could have made the national squad if it wasn't for that dodgy knee or pesky coach. Sadly, we can't get you a second shot, but we can provide you with professional-grade kit. These puppies can be paired with the miCoach Speed Cell, a tracking device that records your speed, sprint times, distance and stride rates, and then push those details over Wi-Fi or USB to the device of your choice.
Adidas, 021 422 6200, www.adidas.co.za
50 iPhone 4S
Despite our disappointment that it wasn't called the iPhone 5, the updates are significant. Besides the camera (which is beefed up to 8MP), the processor is also quicker. This was necessary to drive the most significant development – Siri, the voice-activated personal assistant who'll write texts, search Google and remember appointments for you. It's like she's out of a science fiction film, except she won't kill you.
Check www.vodacom.co.za for details
51 Casio G-Shock Mudman
G-shocks are the kind of products that have a huge cult following, and only once you've worn one do you understand why. They are the most rugged watches on the planet, pumped full of digital wizardry accessed through different button-pushing combos. The one we really like is the Mudman, the Bear Grylls of outdoor-focused watches. It shrugs off dirt, mud and heavy falls and is the choice of many rally drivers. Sold. Casio G-Shock Mudman R2 999
James Ralph, 011 314 8888,
52 Motorola RAZR
In what seems like a me-too competition with Android smartphones, the only point of difference seems to be hardware specs. Sure, it's got the blah-blah 1GB RAM, yadda yadda dual-core 1.2GHz processor and Android™ 2.3 OS. But Motorola goes a step further, using a stainless-steel frame, scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla glass and laser-cut woven KEVLAR fibre for their new party-proof RAZR. R6 999
Cellucity, 021 401 1300
53 Macbook Air
Apple does well to predict the turn of an era, like when they dropped the stiffy drive. "It only stores 2MB, and you can email that," they reasoned. With the popularisation of cloud computing, they've foregone the massive storage of a standard hard drive for a smaller, more energy-efficient solid-state option, with no moving parts. Talking of which, there's no optical DVD drive either. The advantages? It's thinner, lighter, greener and cooler than any other laptop in the world. From R9 299
Digicape, 0860 105 155,
54 Garmin Approach G5 GPS Rangefinder
Some say it's cheating, we say we need all the help we can get. Garmin is wisely focusing its efforts on sports right now and this device uses a high-sensitivity GPS receiver to measure individual hot distances and show precise yardage to every fairway
and green (and the hazards) on a sunlight-readable, touchscreen display. Already there are 180 pre-loaded South Africa courses and thousands of European ones too.
Garmin, 0861 427 646,
55 Skullcandy Fix earphones
Upstart brand Skullcandy filled our shopping carts with colourful 'phones while the established brands reclined lazily on their laurels. Always dreaming up new stuff, designers have made a pair for active sports. When they're in, they stay in. Now play (or mosh) hard. R799
Skullcandy, 071 353 8274,
56 Vestal Brig Watch by Jordy Smith
Watch the tides at over 200 beaches with the gizmo that Jordy Smith's esteemed hand helped create. The large face displays info clearly, and the construction is rugged, having a stainless steel housing and strong Ocktogrip closure. Also, it can go 100m underwater. Nice. R1 933
Wantitall, 011 262 3203,
57 Porsche Design P'9981 Blackberry
BlackBerry has some serious smartphone competition, but we're still impressed at how well they integrated the analogue keypad with a touchscreen interface. This is that phone (with a cooler casing), so if you can't bear the thought of having the same phone as your office underling, but still require BB's functionality, you can own a slice of one of the design icons of the Twentieth century.
Approx R18 000
Cellucity, 021 401 1300,
58 Salomon Advanced Skin 5 Slab Backpack
Nobody enjoys running with a hydration pack, but it's a necessary evil on longer runs, or on events where it's compulsory to bring some sort of emergency equipment. What sets the Skin apart (and makes it the first choice of top endurance racers like Ryan Sandes) is the distinctive body-hugging design: instead of bouncing around on your back like a cowboy at a rodeo, it wraps snugly around your torso like a vest, providing superior stability and comfort. R1 999
Salomon, 031 313 1400, www.salomon.com/za
59 Mountain Hardwear Enterprise Backpack
If you're the kind of oke who cycles to the office or likes a run after work, then the Enterprise was designed for you. From the stylish but hard-wearing "Ballistics" Cordura to the padded, suspended laptop pocket (which also doubles as a hydration bladder sleeve, though obviously not at the same time), this is the ultimate dual-purpose backpack, kind of like Mike Horn in a pinstripe suit. R899
Adventure Inc, 021 180 4000,
60 Samsung D8000 55" smart TV
Manufacturers are no longer shouting about 3D. Now it's all about the "smart TV". This one is Wi-Fi and Ethernet enabled, and works like a tablet with the growing list of apps. Surf the Net, play games, Facebook, Tweet and stream YouTube videos (try the new 3D channel). On the hardware side, the Micro Dimming technology features a new chip and enhanced algorithms to help produce what LCD displays have often lacked: deep blacks and pure whites. R51 999
Samsung, 0860 726 786, www.samsung.co.za
61 GoPro Hero2
The camera that captured the fastest growing YouTube clip of all time (see p208) now has a successor, with some significant upgrades: a totally redesigned and twice-as-sharp lens, twice-as-fast processor, 11MP sensor, easy-to-understand menu and front and top LED indicators. With a range of accessories for virtually any adrenaline sport, instant fame awaits you. R3 999

When this bike was shown at Eurobike, the prototype clocked up more air miles than Barack Obama as editors all over demanded a demo. The USB port is powered by the dynamo hub and although this is the part that's attracting all the attention, the bike itself is clever too. It features a cool, lightweight frame, fenders, a rack and fully-adjustable bars and seat for optimum fit. R11 540

63 Microsoft Arc Touch mouse
Perhaps the mouse is heading for extinction, but the latest species impresses. If previous versions were drab and mundane, this one wears Prada and spends its vacations on Lake Como. It's not just us who think so – it won the IDEA Gold Award, plus it features haptic touch scrolling, and instead of folding like a previous version, it straightens flat, to be slipped into a side pocket. Stylish. R635

64 GT Xizang 9r
Those venturing off-road on two wheels in the Nineties will remember the exotic and rare GT Xizang, made from the wonder material titanium, lighter than steel and virtually indestructible. But carbon took over as the next big thing and titanium got kicked to the kerb. The 2012 Xizang reissue features cutting-edge tech like oversized 29-inch wheels and tapered tubes, as well as a nod to GT's heritage. It's retro-future. From R35 500 depending on build (and there are limited quantities of this frame)

65 Alienware Laptop
Gaming is by far the most demanding application possible for a PC. In fact, gamers have played no small part in the rapid progress in computing technology. We'll save you from the geek-speak specs. But it's safe to say, the mach-speed processing, towering RAM, Herculean graphics card power and stunningly crisp display are all crammed
in here, for the ultimate immersive experience. Plus, it looks like ET brought it along in his laptop bag. R29 999

66 Speedo Aqua coach watch
Here's a great new training aid for Ryk Neethling wannabees. While it sadly doesn't help with things like lane overcrowding or that errant pool noodle that's drifted in from the kiddies' class, it still records distance, speed, calories burnt and – neat this – number of laps (thanks to a built-in accelerometer), so you never have to lose count again.

67 Griffin Helo
R700? Surely there's some mistake. We were saving up for a Parrot AR Drone and only got halfway. Now we can buy two remote- (or in this case, phone-) controlled choppers. The Flight Deck infrared module plugs into an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad and you have two ways to manoeuvre it around your house. Touch Control uses the multi-touch display to control the throttle and joystick and Tilt to Steer mode uses the device's acceler-ometers by leaning it forwards, back or side to side. Store up to three flight plans (practice makes perfect). R700

68 Craft Attack bib shorts
Seems like everything is carbon now, from cars to cellphones, and now, bike shorts. Craft has long been a clothing supplier of many pro cycling teams, including the Schleck brothers. The Swedish company has upped the ante, inserting carbon fibre into the pad
to improve fit and durability. It's not a gimmick; it works, whether you're at a spin class or spending six hours on rough trails. R1 999

69 Apple iPad 2
It's still the leader of the tablet pack with its solid feel, beautifully simple looks, stable operating system and impressive battery stamina. Slimmer than its predecessor, it's easily the most desirable tablet out there. So what if the two cameras are less powerful than its rivals'? The hardware is gorgeous and tactile, and there's an app for everything, with over 70 000 (and growing) written specifically for the iPad. From R4 499

70 Dutchie Burner Surfboard
The Burner is a tailor-made, hybrid short surfboard with five fin spaces that let you surf "quad" (four fin) as well as thruster (by adding or swopping fins). It's designed with performance surfing in small to medium conditions in mind, and is crafted to be infinitely more manoeuvrable in the water than most other boards. Buy one, and get instant respect on any beach in the country.

71 Shimano Ultegra Di2
Bicycle component manufacturers have been tinkering for decades with the idea of replacing old-fashioned cable-pull gear shifting, but the concept only recently made it to production. The first generation model was stratospherically expensive, but Shimano's second-best groupset, Ultegra, benefited from next-gen technology: better, and half the price. The self-adjusting feature is like advanced robotics. R17 000

72 Pioneer DDJ-T1
If that Armin van Buuren fellow can make it, then so can you. This hardware interface could take you from your bedroom to Ibiza before you know it. Connect it with your computer and "spin" your MP3s using the pair of brushed-metal, free-turning jog-wheels with lighted time indicators and touch strips to move and place the virtual needle. Turn the black pots to adjust levels, the grey ones to fade in some cool FX. R12 999
Proaudio, 011 822 1430,
There's not much in the world that beats the fun of going off-road in a mud machine like this. Weighing in at roughly 100kg, this is much lighter than many of its competitors, and the lightness and stiffness of the frame help to emphasise just how powerful this bike is. It's not cheap, but the 300 is a two-stroke technical masterpiece with an incredible build quality that justifies both its price tag and its inclusion on this list. R80 999

74 Salomon Crossmax
Don't buy this shoe if you've got your eyes set on beasts like the Skyrun (a 100km slog across the Eastern Cape highlands). For that you'll want one of Salomon's more supportive models, the XT Wings or XA 3D Pro. But if you want something for training and easier races, then the neutral Crossmax is the business. It's more RAV4 than Hilux, but that's just fine if you spend your time pounding light trails, gravel tracks or tar.

75 Zensah compression calf sleeves
Paula Radcliffe recorded the fastest-ever marathon time during the 2003 London Marathon wearing calf-length socks. Suddenly a new category of clothing was born – the compression garment. Zensah boasts a seamless weave technique that allows gradient compression, providing wide ribbing in front for shin support and tight ribbing at the back for calf support. The fabric features silver thread to regulate skin temperature and fight bacteria. We just wish our stinky socks were made of it too. R490

Having seen their original machines become a feature in many gyms, Powerplate has now taken its cutting-edge vibration tech and implemented it in bicycling training. This unit doesn't need to be plugged into a power point, as it cleverly uses your own cycling inertia to power the vibration effect. So, if you're serious about improving your cycling get one, and train on it while watching the Tour de France next year. R34 150

Even if you aren't a sinewy, PB-smashing athlete, these lightweight, neutral shoes will help you land more on your forefoot and less heavily on your heels. This more natural running style results in less energy burnt, getting you to that finish line quicker.

We've got to be honest here, we loved the original FJ Cruiser, so the new one had a lot to live up to. Our verdict? We love the new one too. It comes standard with the ridiculously-good off-road skills that all Cruisers have, and is shoehorned with new tech and design features that justify its place on our top 100. One of our favourite tech features is the unconventional sound system in the roof, which pumps out proper surround sound. R435 500

We'd buy the Pipeline for the awesomely comfortable "Twin Flex" frames alone. But it's Julbo's optics that are really top billing here. Choose between the Zebra, a category-four photochromic lens with a super-fast 28-second activation time; or the category-three Falcon, a clear-vision lens that is sensitive to visible light (rather than UV), making it the perfect choice for driving. Both lenses are also rated ANSI Z87.1, which means they're tough enough to be used as industrial safety glasses! R1 330

There are very few things that you can pass down from father to son. One of them is a decent watch – and this is that watch.

It looks like the love child of a Transformer and a bulldozer. It is, in fact, a portable radio encased in a hardened, moulded roll cage with six impact-resistant points, and weather-resistant speakers that can survive being dropped, crappy weather and falling bricks. While it can run off mains, it'll also happily play on DeWalt batteries, which charge once plugged into the mains. It also has two extra integrated power outlets on the side, so you can run (or charge) your work tools; plus an auxiliary port for external MP3 players, and a USB power output port to charge low-power items.

There's no middle ground with golf. It's either the most enjoyable game in the world, or it's what causes you to lob your clubs over the nearest fence. To keep within the first part of that statement, you should invest in the R11 driver. Three core technologies (adjustable sole plate tech, flight control tech and movable weight tech) will let you modify the club to suit your swing. You can change the lift, the direction, the flight pattern and even gain a few more yards. R3 699

Oakley is at the vanguard of performance optics, and the Fast Jackets are the tip of the spear of their research and development. The Switchlock hinge system lets you swop lenses faster than you can change shirts, and the nosebomb and earsocks (the bits that press against your head) are covered in anti-stick material to ensure that the shades don't move as you run or cycle your way to the finish line. We approve. And so does the huge roster of professional athletes who use these specs. R2 550

Let's be honest here: your Sunday afternoon game in the park doesn't produce a heck of a lot in the way of Messi-like skills. That's where this game comes in, letting you play with the ability of all the world's top players, and at almost all of the hallowed fields. The gameplay is intuitive, and the controls are simple but comprehensive. For pure button-bashing fun, nothing comes close to playing – and, of course, beating – your mates in this game, whether they're in the same room or on a different continent. R489

Made with carefully-placed, stitchless seams and lightweight materials (Airlite Superflex), this is one of the best wetsuits we've ever seen.

There are smart little silicon grippers on the wrists and ankles to eliminate any movement and flushing. R4 800

Lily Aldridge will never forget working with Mario Testino on Michael Kors beauty campaign
Lily Aldridge will never forget working with Mario Testino on Michael Kors' fragrance campaign.
The 30-year-old model, who was announced as the face of the luxury designer brands beauty commercial for their recent Wonderlust scent earlier this year, has revealed she was "honoured" to be the face of the advert, but considers working with the 62-year-old fashion photographer as the most memorable part of the project.
When asked about her favourite aspect of the shoot, she added: "Shooting with Mario [Testino, the photographer]. We're on a gorgeous yacht, moored off a beautiful island. It's so glamorous. It's something I'll always remember.
"This campaign is about adventure, glamour and luxury. I love that it's a very sophisticated floral scent, which makes it versatile - it carries me from day to night. It's sexy."
And the brunette beauty has admitted she "loves" being an ambassador for the brand and a "Michael Kors woman".
Speaking to Hello! magazine about her latest venture and the product itself, she said: "To me, Wonderlust is all about living life with a sense of adventure. Paving your own path with confidence and allure. I'm so honoured, I love being a Michael Kors woman."
And Lily has revealed she feels more "put together" when she wears perfume because it completes her outfit and leaves her feeling "luxurious".
She said: "Yes [I wear perfume every day]. It's such an important step in my everyday beauty routine. It completes any look and feels luxurious.
"Perfume always makes me feel put together after a long day of travelling."
And the catwalk icon has revealed she "sometimes" sprays her hair with the scent for an "extra statement".
She explained: "I tend to wear it on my wrists, but I sometimes spritz it in my hair for an extra statement."

What is JotForm?
JotForm is a free online form builder which helps you create online forms without writing a single line of code. No sign-up required.
At JotForm, we want to make sure that you're getting the online form builder help that you need. Our friendly customer support team is available 24/7.
We believe that if one user has a question, there could be more users who may have the same question. This is why many of our support forum threads are public and available to be searched and viewed. If you'd like help immediately, feel free to search for a similar question, or submit your question or concern.
How can I make an update to a form without it auto sending to the original notifications again?Asked by confserv on November 21, 2014 at 07:41 PM
I have an online form that I am using for people to register. once submitted notification automatically goes to the 4 departments to authorize. they can then click on the edit link (provided in the email) to go to the form and click their authorization, however when they hit "submit" it automatically notifies everyone again.
How do I either allow departments to authorize a form in some way or prevent it from resending notifications each time?
JotForm Support
I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, did you mean edit_link is to when the department will UPDATE the form submission? Or is it just to get their authorization? Authorization means the "Official Use Only" part of your form right?
I have a workaround in mind but I'll need a sample workflow from your end so that I can try to set and test the conditions I'm thinking. A sample workflow would just be a step by step on how your departments will be passing the form, let's say:
1. Project Coordinator submits request/proposal
2. Department 1 receives proposal/request and reviews, submit the form again
3. Department 2 receives form with approval of Department 1 and submits the form again.
...and so on.
But I need to see more details on your part so that I can create a sample form. What my workaround will be is like this.
1. Project form submits notification to all parties when "NO" approval has been checked.
2. When edit link is clicked by Department 1, there's a condition to where when "Approval" checkbox is enabled, notification will only be sent to Department 1, 2 and 3.
3. When edit link is clicked by Department 2, there's a condition to where when "Approval" checkbox 1 and checkbox 2 is enabled, notification will only be sent to Department 2 and 3.
...and so on.
I apologize if this is quite lengthy and still a raw idea, but I hope this gives you an idea on how we can proceed.
Thank you.
Charlie, Thank you for your prompt attention!
The work flow you listed is on the right track Except I do not want emails sent out repeatedly to Departments, only the initial time. More like this
1. Project form is submitted and it emails 4 departments asking for approval.
2. Department 1 reviews and approves. (no emails to other departments)
3. Department 2 reviews and approves. (no emails to other departments)
4. Department 3 reviews and approves. (no emails to other departments) **I do not want Department 3 to get 3 notifications before they have a chance to approve it. I just want the form to update.
5. All departments have now approved submission, so "Event Approved" email is triggered and sent back to Project Coordinator.
Thank you for your assistance.
In this case, I would suggest that you create conditional notifications for each scenario. Please check this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/167-How-to-send-to-a-specific-email-address-based-on-a-selection
For example, if none of the approved checkboxes are checked (first submission), then send a notification email to all departments to request approval (you can use the same notifier for multiple recipients)
Then when, for example, the facilities department edit the form to approve it (by checking the Facilities textbox) then a notifier is sent only to that department to confirm.
And a similar condition would need to be created for each department.
Finally, you trigger the last notifier when all departments have approved the form.
Let us know if this makes sense to you.

Oh friends, its mother's day weekend and I'm ready to enjoy some sun and relax. Its been nonstop around here and I can't wait to sleep in on Sunday, the one positive of having church at one o'clock. Lets talk about clothes, I love long tunic tops. This one came from Macy's like 6 years ago and I'm still rockin' it. I'm love hats, i've always loved the way they look on me and its hard for me not to buy every single fedora and cute straw hat that i come across! I love how they can hid a bad hair day or may 2nd day curled hair look awesome. ;)
The tunic originally came with a green fabric belt but I lost it so when JCrew factory was having a huge sale after Christmas i snagged 3 of these leather skinny belts for way cheap and the green just happened to match perfectly! I def. need to find a few more spring looking tunics, they are my favorite! Those loafers are so fun, right? but I have had the hardest time pairing them with outfits. Do you have items like that? You love the single item so much but just can't seem to make it work? These shoes have been like that for me so I was excited when I put this look together and they totally worked.
Hat: Charming Charlie
Top: Macy's

About Kelly Clarkson – Heartbeat Song
Kelly Brianne Clarkson, better known just as Kelly Clarkson, is a singer and songwriter from the United States. She is from the state of Texas and belongs to the pop rock genre. Kelly is an occasional actress as well. But of course, she is best known for her music career, particularly her vocal skills. Active on the music scene since 2002, her work has been released through RCA Records, and 19 Recordings.
Clarkson first came under the spotlight in 2002, when she won the first season of American Idol, and since then, it has been said that Kelly is "the original American Idol". Quite an achievement really! It's been an all upward journey since then. Clarkson has revealed that she is influenced by the work of many other artists, such as Mariah Carey, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Whitney Houston, Aerosmith, Jimi Hendrix, and Bette Midler, among many others.
In a career that spans for more than a decade now, she has given us 91 chart toppers on Billboard, and 11 international #1 singles. Absolutely anybody would be proud of this achievement. Kelly has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide. Often, the songs she sings deals with issues on women, particularly about women empowerment, independence and heartbreaks.
Kelly Clarkson has released a total of six studio albums as yet. They are "Thankful" of 2003, "Breakaway" of 2004, "My December" of 2007, "All I Ever Wanted" of 2009, "Stronger" of 2011, and "Wrapped in Red" of 2013. Her seventh album is going to come out on February 27th 2015. It is titled "Piece by Piece". She has also released one compilation album, three extended plays, a couple of video albums, 5 promotional singles, and 30 music videos.
"Heartbeat Song" is a pop rock, pop and electropop song by Kelly Clarkson. The song was released on January 12th 2015 for digital download through RCA Records. This single is going to be a part of her seventh studio album "Piece by Piece". It is the only track that has been released from this album so far. It's also going to be the album's lead single. Heartbeat Song has been written by Audra Mae, Jason Evigan, Kara DioGuardi, and Mitch Allan, and has been produced by Greg Kurstin. It runs for a total of three minutes and eighteen seconds.
Just before the release of this single, Kelly had revealed some clues about it. She posted these words, "Proof of life & Dr. Dre #TheNextEpisode". Some publication took the cue and accurately predicted that the title of this song will be "Heartbeat Song". This was finally confirmed on January 7th 2015. The song's preview was released a couple of days after this.
"Heartbeat Song" has been doing very well at the charts since its release, like so many other songs from Kelly. Most music critics have praised its lyrics and the way in which it has been delivered as well. Clarkson's vocal performance and catchy chorus have been particularly praised. It's become a commercial success. The music video of Heartbeat Song came out on January 26th 2015.

Well, I'm 36 so it took me a while, but here I am! And today, my 3 year old helped Mommy make her buttercream icing for her final project! I'm really looking forward to this!

Great combo of fruit in a shake! You can also throw in some frozen vanilla yogurt for more flavor.

SENSATIONAL!!!!! What a simple, wonderful flavor combination! I used Blue Bunny frozen vanilla yogurt (I think it has such a great natural vanilla taste). Also used 2% milk instead of soymilk. This created a raspberries and cream flavor that was out of this world!!!! I really love this recipe, thanks Strawberry Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- 1 medium banana
- 2 cups soymilk

Chicken Wings.... Hot Cafe Style
READY IN: 55mins
Recipe by 2Bleu
No clue as to this recipe's origins, but sounds yummy.
Top Review by loof751
These were great wings! I couldn't find the brand names your suggested but did use 6 oz of buffalo wing sauce and 4 oz of hot wing sauce, along with the other ingredients. The sauce was tangy and spicy and I liked that the wings were baked, not fried. I made some with wings and some with boneless tenders and we loved them both - thanks for sharing!

Baked Pork Chops
Recipe by Darlene10
This recipe is quite delicious and a nice change from the usual pork chop casseroles. Try it, I'm sure you will like it. The recipe came from a very old Purity cookbook.
Top Review by jus2470
I was looking for a recipe that I thought kids might really like - and they did. I had to make a couple of ingredient changes, so the original is probably even better. I wasn't sure what catsup was, so I used tomato sauce. I used olive oil, not shortening, to brown the chops, with fresh ginger and garlic added then, as I didn't have powdered garlic or ginger to add to the flour. I only used 2 tablespoons of paprika, as I have the strong Spanish one, and I thought it would overwhelm everything else. The chops tasted excellent, but the sauce was a little thin - maybe because of the tomato sauce I used? Anyway, we really liked this recipe. Thank you Darlene.

You bought your Commercial Chassis because its performance and American engineering appealed to your senses; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to great quality auto parts? Car aficionados know that a reliable name is built into each Cadillac, and understand that only the highest quality repair Commercial Chassis parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. Anyone who owns a Cadillac knows that when it comes to maintaining their car, truck, or SUV only the highest quality replacement parts will do. It's not a regular occurrence that you find yourself in need of a replacement Sway Bar Link to repair your car or truck.
Chassis flex is the enemy of a firm and stable suspension. To ensure your suspension doesn't twist the chassis during turns, Cadillac Commercial Chassis sway bar links connect the sway bar to the control arms at both ends. Without stabilizer links or a sway bar, the chassis would lean away from every turn you make. This was first tested on race cars at the beginning of the 20th century, and now sway bar links have made their way to almost every production vehicle manufactured today; including your Cadillac Commercial Chassis.
Don't let a broken Sway Bar Link spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the best replacement parts. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Ordering new Cadillac parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement Commercial Chassis parts on the internet. Need 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979, 1978, 1977, 1976, 1975, 1974, 1973, 1972, 1971, 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1966, 1965, 1964, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1960, 1959, 1958, 1957, 1956, 1955, 1954, 1953, 1952, 1951, 1950, 1949, 1948, 1947, 1946 Cadillac Commercial Chassis Sway Bar Link parts?

Donna Air stuns in gold
Donna Air stunned in a metallic ensemble at The Animal Ball.
The television personality turned heads at the star studded dinner at London's The Langham Hotel, although a variety of gatherings took place at a number of locations.
Donna adorned a gold dress with a pleated skirt detail, which cinched in at the waist to showcase her petite frame.
The star let her blonde locks fall in neat curls on her shoulders as she posed for pictures.

STAXTON were the big winners on a rain-hit Saturday in the Readers Scarborough Beckett League as they moved 28 points clear at the top of the premier division.
Staxton's home game with Seamer was the only top tier match to beat the weather, and it saw the hosts collect maximum points from a 100-run victory.
James Armstrong (53) and Nick Gibson (55) hit half-centuries and Dan Bulman (41) and Chris Dove (27) also contributed to a Staxton's first innings score of 229-7.
Anthony Jenkinson made 54 in reply for Seamer but Ed Cooper breezed through the batting line-up to finish with 6-24 as the visitors were bowled out for 129.
Scalby had their lower order to thank for avoiding humilation - if not defeat - at leaders Grindale in division 'A'.
The visitors won the toss and, having invited Grindale to take first knock in a game reduced to 43 overs, they were set a target of 151-8, Ben Jackson top scoring with 40.
However, they could hardly have got off to the worse start as opening bowlers Liam Cousins and Tom Jackson had them reeling at 7-5 from 10 overs.
Scalby limped to 32-8 after 20 overs before Mike Buttery (35 not out) and P Hesp (24) added 55 for the ninth wicket, before Cousins and Jackson returned to the attack, with the latter having Hesp caught behind by Simon Battams.
Jackson finished with 6-15 from 13.4 overs, eight of which were maidens, and Cousins finished with 2-13 from seven
Wold Newton enjoyed their first win of term by winning at fellow strugglers Sewerby II by five wickets.
The hosts looked untroubled at 30 without loss after eight overs, but tight bowling from Oliver West (1-33 off 15 overs) allowed Mark Holtby to take two wickets in two balls at the other end.
This brought Cameron Rusbridge Burns (23) to the crease and he made a good stand with Ian Dennis (41), but a wicket after drinks got Newton's tails up and Sewerby fell to 128 all out, the pick of the bowlers being James Knaggs (4-13 off seven overs).
Wold Newton took their time in reply but kept wickets in hand as they opened with a 51 partnership between Dave Southwell (30) and Gwaine Hogg (37).
Accurate line and length from J Searby eventually got the breakthrough and tight bowling from Vince O'Grady (2-21 off 10 overs) kept things quiet but Wold Newton still reached their target with five wickets spare.
Ryedale enjoyed a good seven-wicket win over Staxton II in division 'B'.
Dan Hardey was the star of the show, making an unbeaten 72 to take his team to their target.
Staxton had been all out for 102, of which Ryan Hargreaves made 29, as Michael Temple returned figures of 3-14).
In division 'C', Heslerton II closed the gap to leaders Scalby II thanks to a narrow win by just six runs - set up be a brilliant opening partnership.
In a match reduced to 30 overs, visitors Heslerton totalled 193-5, with Tony Watson making 82 and skipper James Almond 74, putting on 169 in the first stand before the wickets began to fall. Tony Geall (4-41) took all but one of the wickets to fall.
Replying, Scalby were almost out of contention until a late flurry of runs swung the match around - only for Watson to enter the attack and claim three late wickets for only five runs to end an exciting climax in Heslerton's favour and seal the man-of-the-match award.
For Scalby, Alex White made 33, Freddie Schmuck 41 and Grant Ellwell 28. Phill Coverdale took 4-60 for Heslerton.

Check your error log, is it huge? Worked on a couple of forums that had gigabyte log_errors table, don't recall if that's what affected upgrade.
Can't come up with it. Looks like you're running php 5.5 and MySQL 5.7, shouldn't be any problem there. You can upgrade to php 5.6, but don't think that will fix it.

(Adds detail, background)
SANTIAGO, July 18 (Reuters) - Production at Collahuasi, one of the world's largest copper mines, will be slightly higher in 2014 than last year, the company's chief executive Jorge Gomez said on Friday.
The Chilean mine produced 444,509 tonnes of refined copper in 2013, up from 282,100 tonnes in 2012, when it was recovering from a string of labor, accident and weather-related problems.
"We think that (this year) we are going to be slightly above what we produced in 2013," Gomez said to journalists after a presentation of the mine's annual sustainability report.
Inferior ore grades compared to 2013 would hold back a stronger rise in production, he added.
Chile, which produces a third of the world's copper, is struggling with dwindling ore grades in many of its aging deposits, although new mines and recoveries in troubled ones are pushing up overall output.
Collahuasi, a partnership between Glencore Xstrata and Anglo American Plc, says it has about 9.8 billion tonnes of mineral resources with an average ore grade of 0.81 percent. (Reporting by Fabian Cambero, Writing by Rosalba O'Brien; Editing by Bernard Orr)
