The Korbell Nappy Refills is an "endless" bag system that lets you only use the amount you need without any pointless waste.
The Korbell Nappy Bin is a great system that allows you to dispose of nappies quickly and efficiently without having to go to the bin after every change.
I bought the Korbell bin second hand. These refills are pretty much as cheap as you get but only bought because they fit. Useful to be able to cut off at any point. Easy to use.
These refills are really easy to use with the 15l Korbell Nappy Bin. We have an 11 week old who gets through nappies fairly quickly and one box of refills lasted us 2 months. Well worth the money and mask the smell of dirty nappies well.

This is a defense of Ron Paul I'm writing out of sheer frustration. I hope it appeals to a few of you.
I'm not a partisan guy. I don't get excited about "my team" winning. I don't care if it's politicians, sports, music--I am simply not the kind of guy who feels really happy about "his" group winning and gets really defensive and upset when "his" group is attacked by supporters of other groups. I don't care to attack or defend Justin Bieber, Barack Obama, or the New York Yankees. Now, if they do something wrong--if, say, Justin Bieber strangles a prostitute--I'd criticize him, but only because he did something wrong, not because he's on the other team.
Because of my lack of interest in teams and winning, I've never been excited about Ron Paul the way other libertarians are. Further more, I found myself skeptical of his motives (he's a politician, he'll sell whatever it takes to win) and doubtful that he could achieve his aims once in office (Obama does not strike me as a gun nut, yet he bends over backwards for the NRA). Yet I have explored a little of Ron Paul due to the current excitement over him, and I have observed something striking: Ron Paul wants to stop murdering people. Even when it's an unpopular message, he pushes it, which suggests that he really means it. He wants to end the war on drugs and the wars in the middle east. Furthermore, he doesn't want to start new wars!
The deaths caused by these wars have to be murder. Even if you think that drugs shouldn't be consumed, and even if you think that there are good reasons for the US government to be invading the Middle east, there is no way you can possibly think that all of those deaths, or even 90%, or even 50% of those deaths, are necessary to achieve those aims. That means thousands and thousands of those deaths are simply murder, and completely immoral. They must stop. Ron Paul wants to stop them.
That's why it makes me so furious to see things like this. I don't know much about Ron Paul, so he may be a racist for all I know. But let Ron Paul be a racist! He is the only candidate who wants to stop murdering thousands of people every year! Whatever the immorality of electing a potentially racist President, it does not compare to the immorality of electing a President who is known to be a killer and pro-killing whenever convenient!
As if the evil of one man's repugnant personal views outweighs the evil of the slaughter of thousands!
There's also the obvious irony that out of all the candidates' personal views, Ron Paul's are the least important. Under Ron Paul's ideal policies, Paul would lack the power to use his racism for evil. Only a powerful President, with the power to kill and regulate every aspect of society, needs to be an angel in order to be a good President. An economist like Brad Delong should understand this easily.

An economist like Brad Delong should understand this easily.
An economist like Brad Delong is insane:
The superrich command and control so many resources that they are effectively satiated: increasing or decreasing how much wealth they have has no effect on their happiness.
The superrich command and control so many resources that they are effectively satiated: increasing or decreasing how much wealth they have has no effect on their happiness.
Oh boy, that means I can steal a couple thousand from my neighbors?
I think it would be more accurate to say that an economist like Brad DeLong is bought and paid for.
@OP: Excellent point. I think more people should drive the point home that any allegations of racism pale in comparison to the actions of killing scores of innocent human beings and other such barbarism as have actually ocurred in recent history.

If that is so, then I am likely very much in the wrong. He's obviously not crazy, as he's got a cozy job telling people what to believe - much more than anything I have! In fact, he might be more of a rational egoist than I am :P
Ron Paul isn't a racist. I've refuted this.
he's a politician, he'll sell whatever it takes to win
Then why has he been saying just about the same damn thing for decades?
Also he continues to get more donations from military personel than all the other candidates combined.
Yeah, people shouldn't care if Ron Paul is racist as long as it doesn't effect his policies. But with Boobus Americanus (a phrase I stole from DiLorenzo), these kinds of sideshows and personality styles are important. I think it happens to be a bonus that Ron Paul is not racist.
It's pretty excellent work, that blog post from the Mobutu VICE mouthpiece, in accurately and observantly emulating an actual press release sent out by Mobutu's secret police via megaphone as they break down doors and set fire to villages. He has the 'rape-room' style on lock.
I naturally suspect all politicians of being willing to do whatever it takes to win. I think Ron Paul is sincerely opposed to war because he has opposed it for so long.
Also, nice graphs.
Someone who is opposed to the drug wars and the war on terror is a racist? What the hell? They're the most racist policies we have in place today. Of course who cares about important things like that- lets call ron paul a racist and go back to arguing over abortion and gay marriage.
Coase:I naturally suspect all politicians of being willing to do whatever it takes to win.
I think Tunk makes a perfect point that illustrates quite clearly that you are wrong. Again, if that is the case, why has Ron Paul been saying the same thing his entire political career, whether it helped him in the polls or not? I think it's quite clear if he would just support the warmongering and the establishment position on Israel, he'd be a shoo-in. Listen to them whine and all but admit that on Fox News. I think this was even more true last time around. He'd probably be President right now if he would have simply changed a few things to more "mainstream" rhetoric.
Also, on the racist issue, addressed by Ron Paul himself, here.
At first I thought you were joking due to your past posts - but even if you are, I agree 100% with your overall sentiments (even though I really doubt RP is a racist in any meaningful / worth considering sense)
The fact is, even if you disagree with his economics or whatever - where he will really count and make a difference is in foreign policy. He may be the only major canidate in a very long time to seriously challenge, and if elected, change the policy of US imperialism . If all the killing overseas makes you squeamish (and it does for me) - Ron Paul is the best viable political option anyone can consider.
And frankly, if one is going to think about "big issues" and care about global politicas, if there 1st concern is not stopping insane murdering (fuck "cold pragmatic realism") than there is nothing I think I can talk about to the person.
"As in a kaleidoscope, the constellation of forces operating in the system as a whole is ever changing." - Ludwig Lachmann
"When A Man Dies A World Goes Out of Existence" - GLS Shackle
I should note that I don't think Paul is racist or a political whore. But even if he was racist, he would still be the most moral candidate.

Pre-Medical Studies
Have you dreamed of being a doctor, dentist, veterinarian or other health professional? Well, your dream is now within your grasp. Let City College help you achieve your goals. City College's pre-med program provides both undergraduates and post-baccalaureate students a path to that dream.
The City College of New York has a long history of academic excellence. For over 150 years this comprehensive institution has educated students who were often new to this country or limited in financial resources. The result: thousands of successful alumni.
Our outstanding Program in Premedical Studies (PPS) is designed to prepare students for careers in medicine, dentistry, osteopathy, veterinary medicine, optometry and podiatry.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Program in Premedical Studies (PPS) of the Division of Science of the City College of New York is to identify and prepare undergraduate and post-baccalaureate students for entry into the professional programs in the health sciences (medicine, dentistry, osteopathy, optometry, podiatry, and veterinary sciences). The program advances students' knowledge of careers in the health sciences through academic advisement, tutoring services, workshops, and symposia. Students are referred to hospitals and other clinical centers to provide volunteer and research opportunities to facilitate their clinical shadowing experience, which carries significant weight in a professional school admissions application. The Premedical Studies Office guides students through the application process with information on timeliness, and assistance with personal statements, and preparation for interviews.
Since the establishment of the Program in Premedical Studies in 1981, City College students have been admitted to some of the finest medical and dental schools in the country, including Columbia, Cornell, Harvard, Albert Einstein, SUNY Upstate, SUNY Downstate, SUNY Stony Brook, Drexel, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine, Columbia University College of Dental Medicine and many, many more.
Between 65-70% of all students who apply to professional programs are successful in gaining admission to one or more schools.
Pre-Med is NOT a major at The City College of New York.We encourage students to explore all majors – you do not have to be a science major to be pre-med, pre-dental, pre-vet, pre-optometry or pre-podiatry.HOW IT WORKS
You enroll in a full program of study in any City College department (usually the sciences). Students also receive special support services (tutoring, advisement, workshops, etc.) that are designed to help them become a successful applicant to the professional school of their choice.
***If you are a prospective post-baccalaureate student applying to the Program in Premedical Studies, please note that due to the overwhelming enrollment at CCNY, we can no longer guarantee a seat in a science course for newly accepted students.****

Giro Air Attack Helmet $199.95
Drag doesn't stand a chance.
The Garmin-Barracuda riders are using them, as well as many other of the peloton's racers. And while it might still be too early to say that we're used to seeing them, the trend among the number of pros who've made the switch is rising. We're talking about those 'odd-looking' round helmets that look like they belong atop BMX riders' domes more than those of road cyclists. But, like any new products adopted by pros that seem out of place at first, there's usually some solid reasoning behind their implementation. As for the new Giro Air Attack helmet, it comes down to a single word: aerodynamics.
Traditionally, aerodynamic cycling helmets have relied on sloping shapes, minimal venting, and a teardrop tail design to dictate the flow of air in order to overcome aerodynamic drag. However, with Giro's new Air Attack, its engineers had to rethink the shape of this typical design. The reason for this was simple -- the objective of the Air Attack was to mate an aerodynamic helmet with a design that was compact, well-ventilated, and able to be worn for long periods of time.
To start, the helmet was designed with a similar frontal area as Giro's Selector time trial helmet, only with a new 'chopped-off' rear section. Wind tunnel testing proved that the air still 'thinks' it's moving around a long tail, when, in fact, the excess material no longer exists. In addition to now having roughly the same minimal drag (only 11% more) than the Selector, the Air Attack provides a drastic increase in weight savings. In fact, the claimed weight of the Air Attack is 264g versus the Selector's 430g.
The second major consideration when designing the Air Attack came down to thermodynamics. After all, Giro's engineers knew that a lightweight, aerodynamic helmet was worthless to the peloton if didn't ventilate well. This led Giro to the development of what it calls 'the Therminator,' which is a head-form heated to the temperature of a human, with 'thermo-couples' added on the outside. The information relayed from this system allowed engineers to map out parts of the head that stayed both cool and warm in the wind tunnel, which let Giro locate where vents were working and where they were not. What Giro found was that as air hits the rider, there is a very high pressure zone right at the forehead. In response, the Air Attack's new fit system, known as Super Fit, suspends the rider's head off of the EPS, allowing air entered in that front three millimeter portion of the helmet to flow over the top of the head and out the large, strategically placed back channels. Remember that 11% additional drag over the Selector? The 28% increased cooling power achieved ought to make up for it.
The Attack isn't as light as Giro's fully-vented and top-end Aeon helmet, but it still provides you with 97% of its cooling efficiency and an 11% boost in aerodynamic efficiency. We'll let you weigh the trade-off.
The Giro Air Attack Helmet is available in the sizes Small, Medium, and Large and in the colors Black/silver, Black/red, Blue/black, Matte Black, Matte Titanium, and White/silver.

zach goodwiler
i have the visor from my previous helmet. does the air attack by itself have the ability to connect to the visor/does it have the three magnetic round points on the front of the helmet like the air attack shield?
Adam D
This one doesn't have the magnetic points like the Shield model. Just the Shield model has magnets
does this come with the visor?
Frenky Palit
does this come with the visor?
Lexi Dowdall
Hello Frenky,
This helmet does not come with a visor.
You are looking for the giro air attack shield. It costs $40 more and is also in competitive cyclist. They list it as a different product.
surprisingly impressed
This was an impulse purchase. After seeing a few people on the road with it and liking the low profile looks of it, I thought it might be a good winter riding helmet. I tried a friend's on, and was surprised at how comfortable it is on my head. Not sure if it is the suspension system, light weight, or it just fits my roundish head better than my current Specialized or previous Bell helmets. In either case it was comfortable. What I noticed on the road were two things: it vents just fine at moderate speeds, and the helmet is eerily quiet. I always thought that wind noise was mostly just from moving down the road, but after wearing this helmet, it seems like there's a lot of noise that comes off of vented helmets. In any case, I love it. It'll be my winter riding helmet for now, and will switch to my Specialized for climbing days and during summer. If Giro puts this Roc Loc Air suspension on a vented model, I will for sure buy another one. It's surprisingly comfortable.
Giro: Developing the Air Attack -A Shift
By Giro Sport Design
Measurable Gains.
Jeff Stewart
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
According to Giro's data, the Air Attack provides an 11% increase in aerodynamic efficiency over the Giro Aeon, and it comes in around 166 grams lighter than the Selector. Impressive. In real world application, I found a noticeable difference in my descent and flat course times. In fact, on my backyard Cat.3 descent, Royal Street, I increased an average speed of 32.7mph to 34.3mph - a gain of around 15 seconds over 4.7 miles. Again, impressive. In terms of climbing, I didn't experience any obvious benefits, but more importantly, we didn't experience any obvious overheating. Again, I'll reference Giro's data and say that the Air Attack is supposed to have 97% of the Aeon?s cooling properties. However, that remaining 3% does lead to a slight stifling sensation through climbs that are above 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Was it the end of the world? No. Were the marginal gains worth it? I say yes.
Great Lid for Winter, and fit to live by
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This helmet beat my expectations in the summer, but the added coverage makes winter riding much more comfortable.
Additionally, the Roc-loc air retention system would make me buy this helmet on fit alone.
The system's forehead pad is slightly positioned away from foam, reducing any pressure points caused by different head shapes.
Lexi Dowdall
Great picture!
Great triathlon helmet
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I got this before doing my first ironman. I don't like the traditional aero helmets. This helmet delivers, very comfortable over the full distance. Great adjustability.

Alexander Kristoff was the BMC Racing Team's best finisher on the stage (16th) and Mauro Santambrogio (26th) wound up as the squad's top placer overall as the Tour de Pologne concluded in a mass sprint Saturday.
Too Far Back
Kristoff, who finished second on the race's opening stage, said he felt fatigued throughout the 128 kilometer circuit race in Kraków. "With one kilometer to go I was too far back, but was hoping someone with a train would come through from behind," the Norwegian national road champion said. "But nobody came and then someone crashed in front of me and I hit the brakes." Marcel Kittel (Skil-Shimano) won his fourth stage and Peter Sagan (Liquigas-Cannondale) took the overall by virtue of a time bonus for finishing second on the day.

The American people are frustrated with their government — dismayed by a series of high-profile failures (Iraq, Katrina, the financial meltdown). Yet our nation has a proud history of great achievements: victory in World War II, our national highway system, welfare reform, the moon landing.

When a legend dies, much of the world feels it. But how often is that legend a piece of software? If you were into digital music when the MP3 file format first became popular, chances are good that you crossed paths with Winamp. Chances are even better that you called it home for a number of years. It was as de facto a piece of software as one could get; the Photoshop of music players, if you will.
And now, it's soon to be killed off for good. On the official website, attempting to download the player will issue this warning: "Winamp.com and associated web services will no longer be available past December 20, 2013. Additionally, Winamp Media players will no longer be available for download."
The reasons for the closure shouldn't come as much surprise. Winamp doesn't enjoy quite the same audience it once did, and those that do use it tend to stick with the classics, such as 2.x, seen below.
Interestingly, my entire family (aside from me) still uses that exact version. Some of them have tried later versions, such as 5.x, but nothing compares to the ease of the earlier ones. For enthusiasts, Foobar2000 has become a popular choice (it's what I use), and for most everyone else, the PC might not even be the primary source of music listening nowadays, thanks to the popularity of smartphones (and not to mention cloud streaming).
Those who remember the old days of Winamp will undoubtedly vividly recall its tagline: "Winamp, it really whips the Llama's ass." For those who don't recall that, it wasn't just a tagline, it was a sample that came included with the player! No one could miss it. And who else out there had a ball goofing around with Winamp's rich visualizations? Geiss, anyone?
For the ultimate in nostalgia, here's one of Winamp's earliest versions:
I am sure I'm not alone when I say that Nullsoft remains in the hearts of many, and while Winamp didn't enjoy much success in recent years, it goes down as an absolute classic.
What am I supposed to use now?
omg - a legend dies! I've been using winamp since windows 98se >.>
yes like winamp the best of any music player.
I have had a Pro version key for so long I can't remember when I got it lol..
I never did get the llama reference
I haz a sad.
Me too :( :(
whats the difference to the free one? time to reboot chrome "going round and round with egg timer."
I honestly can't remember... I think it unlocks more codecs for ripping audio and some other stuff - its been so long
I use the fee version only,its still seems quite good though it be great to intergrate it as the player to give it radio sound.
Sad news. My first step into MP3's were with winamp and its what I still use today.
What the hell am I supposed to use now? Windows Media Player? PFFFT.
It's about time.
So many feels... :'(
Never cared for winamp.. back in the day used realplayer..
(And I feel like a schmuck for saying realplayer.....lol)
AOL killed winamp
It had a decent midi synthesizer, but they really lost a lot of functionality after Windows 98.
This is really sad. I guess iTunes played a big part in it but they never should have sold the company to AOL and should have pushed for better music stores to purchase tracks from.
I used the new version of winamp and i has a lot of neat features like automatic track naming and stuff and even purchased some songs from the store that was linked to it at the time.
I was a user of winamp up to Windows XP. There wasn't an equal program to it. I'm willing to bet this article will cause quite a few people to download it before it goes away for good.
Will probably become open source and live on...
i loved winamp but once i found media monkey it was all over i am head over heels for media monkey its a amazing program for all you lost winamp users out there check out media monkey http://www.mediamonkey.com/
This sucks. To this day I still use Winamp. Sure, I have upgraded to a newer version with the Bento skin, but regardless. I still love it. I find it very upsetting that they are throwing in the towel.
I remember using it back "in the day". The end of an era...
Maybe we'll get a XMMS port for windows now.
NOOOOOOO WHY LORD WHY!!!!! I have been using Winamp since 1998!!! And I still use it until today!!!! Sure it's gotten bloated over the years but you can still run the modern version in classic mode and disable all the extras including new skins and it works like the original! I've never been into fubar even back in the day, and I would never use windows media player or itunes to actually play back audio files. Looks like I am going to have to add the current Winamp installation file to my software archive so I can continue to enjoy it for hopefully another decade and a half before something better might come out...
Everytime I tried using Winamp it was so unstable that it would just shutoff for no reason at times. Can't say I'll miss it much.
SOOOOO Has anyone else heard the news that there is a petition to save Winamp and that Microsoft is considering purchasing the software????? Winamp Integrated into Windows 8.2 or Windows 9 would be awesome!!!!!
everyone go sign the petition!!!
