Hipod Senator v Maxi Cosi Complete air
Started by bubinoven , Apr 13 2012 12:24 AM
7 replies to this topic
Posted 13 April 2012 - 12:24 AM
Can anyone please tell me the width difference between these two? I have been googling for ages and not come up with a width for the Hipod, and have found two different for the Maxi, one said 45cm and the other 41cm.
Also any help over why I would choose one over the other would be great (for a 22months old, average height and about <12kgs)
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:59 AM
Maxi Cosi complete air has higher top shoulder slots so will last longer in 5pt harness mode.
Maxi Cosi CA is a forward facing seat only. Hipod Senator is a convertible booster seat (although most do agree that convertible boosters are harder to use in booster mode and end up purchasing a dedicated booster only).
Personally I would not put a child under 2.5-3yrs in a convertible booster as they tend to be more upright then other up to 18kgs/4yrs seats. My kids even at 4.5yrs in the Hipod Senator would have the worst head slump forward when sleeping in the car.
Both Maxi Cosi and Hipod Senator are 45cm wide at their widest points.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 05:35 PM
Ok so id be better off getting a 0-4yrs style seat? the other option i was looking at purchasing was a mothers choice varrera, we dont have much money to spend at the moment. and it looks very similar to the sns meridian i have. im trying to avoid spending too much on seats that wont last long.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 05:44 PM
Not Mother's Choice - they tend to be short backed seats and outgrown prematurely heightwise.
The Maxi Cosi Complete Air would be a good seat (it is a forward facing only seat so 6m-4yrs). As I said I have seen 120cm 6yo in a Complete Air.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 05:52 PM
Oh ok i thouht you meant dont out him in any type of convertabke booster, not judt the hipod lol. ok might go the maxi, thank you. He will be closer to two yrs by the time it gets delvered and used, as DD's shoulders are just level with the slots in her capsule now and she will be going into the meridian.
Sorry for bad spelling.....i cannot get used to this touch phone lol

Maxi Cosi is a forward facing seat only.
I do not recommend convertible boosters for young ones (including Hipod Senator, SnS Maxi Rider, Infa Comfi Cruiser, Cargo Marathon, Babylove Ezy Combo).

When it comes to penalty kicks there are some players, no matter how good they are, who shy away from the pressure situation. Fortunately for the Walt Whitman High School girls' soccer team, Clare Severe, who was called upon to kick the possible game-clinching shot in the penalty kick round of Friday's Class 4A West Region Section I final against Winston Churchill, is not one of them.
"Before I even called her name I could see [Severe] wanted it," Whitman coach Greg Herbert said. "She's so competitive. I could see her light up and get excited."
Severe didn't let any of her feelings, excitement or admitted nerves, show as she trotted up to the ball and calmly placed a right-footed kick just inside the right post to seal Whitman's win, 4-1 in penalty kicks. The Vikings, making their second straight region final appearance, are scheduled to play Thomas S. Wootton, which upended top-seeded Quince Orchard in the Section II final, Tuesday at Paint Branch. Whitman is seeking its first state tournament appearance since winning the 2004 championship.
"This was a great win, we really wanted it, but we know our work isn't finished," said Whitman senior midfielder Aliza Wolfe, who scored the Vikings' goal in regulation. "We want to keep working as hard as we can and we want to win states."
The fact that Friday's game even went to overtime, let alone penalty kicks, is a huge testament to the Churchill defense. The Vikings (14-1-1) were on offense for about 90 percent of Friday's contest. Though they did miss some wide open attempts — Severe attributed that to issues with nerves in front of the frame — Churchill's (12-4-1) defense did a tremendous job withstanding the almost constant pressure it was under. The Vikings tallied 18 shots to Churchill's five. Bulldogs goalie Tania Mamdouhi racked up about 12 saves.
The Bulldogs managed to push forward for a stretch of about 10 minutes toward the end of the first half and were awarded three restarts within scoring range but were unable to score. Senior forward Eleni Boutsikaris did score the game-tying goal during that stretch, though, after Wolfe gave Whitman the early lead.
"Whitman deserved to win that game, they were the agressor, they put pressure on us," Churchill coach Haroot Hakopian said. "[Whitman] hit everything [it] had to hit, We were lucky to be in penalty kicks, they did what they had to do."
Whitman goalie Erin McClanahan gave Whitman about as good a start to the penalty kick round as a team could ask for by making a diving save on Churchill's first attempt — Wolfe had already buried her shot.
All four Whitman kickers — Wolfe, Emily Martin, Kate Morrison and Severe — converted on their kicks while only Juliana Comer found the net for Churchill.
"[That save] was unbelievable," Herbert said. "Erin's had some difficulties this year but I was so impressed with the way she showed [Friday]. We've been working on penalty kicks for two weeks. For her to get the first save, that just gave the girls confidence. I knew it was over."
Walt Whitman 2, Churchill 1 (4-1 penalty kicks)
Whitman (14-1-1) 1 0 0 0 0 — 2
Churchill (12-4-1) 1 0 0 0 0 — 1

Churchill — Eleni Boutsikaris

How To Buy A Backpack
The keys to buying a backpack are fit and capacity. While fit should be determined by your body type, capacity (the types and amount of gear a pack is capable of carrying) should depend on intended use and length of trip. Here is what to look for to determine what backpack is right for you.
Pack styles and uses
The more weight you carry, the more supportive your pack needs to be.
Internal frame
External frame
Return To Top
Daypacks are ideal for carrying light loads over short distances.
Sport specific packs
Many daypacks have sport-specific features to accommodate specialized equipment.
Hydration packs
Hydration packs are designed to provide an ample supply of water while you're on the move.
Styles and uses
What to look for
The capacity of a backpack is measured in cubic inches. The size you need depends on what you'll be doing and the amount and type of gear you want to carry.
Fitting tips
Your height has little bearing on what size pack you should wear; it's your torso length that matters.

The Aroma of the Knowledge of God: How the Sense of Smell Inspires Worship and Awe
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
Children's books are more than stories. They can become familiar narratives children listen to over and over. So it's worth asking - Are the books we're reading doing a good job of portraying God and His Creation?
When you are in church, do you act and speak differently than when you are in school? Do you tend to compartmentalize what you learn about in Biology class from what you learn about in Sunday School?
Russell Crowe as Noah was no superhero. He was very human—perhaps too human for those who'd prefer he remain in the flannel graph world of our Sunday School stories.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
Scripture gives us multiple ways of looking at things, and a classic example of this is the parables of Jesus. Many of these involve looking at nature. For example, natural events like seeds growing—and what Jesus seems to be saying is look there is a surface reading of nature—and then there is the deeper reading, where you begin to realize there are levels of meaning that we don't pick up on our first acquaintance.
As a Christian, I can't think of a more beautiful process for God to have blessed the production of the elements that we need for life than the beauty of stars. In fact, we are told that we shine like stars in the universe.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
"For a few moments, it felt like our little church community was surrounded by glory. The wisdom of Christ in the hypothalamus was illumining the wisdom of Christ in the prophets and gospels."
What can a practicing scientist in the 21st century—even a "bench scientist" like me whose scientific forays are confined to a laboratory—glean from a 19th century wanderer like Thoreau?
As I read The Voyage, I often thought about Darwin's other famous work, The Origin of Species, and the delight that Darwin clearly took in the natural world. Writing about a tropical forest in Brazil, he found himself at a loss for words, "…it is not possible to give an adequate idea of the higher feelings of wonder, astonishment, and devotion, which fill and elevate the mind."
Considering my own stance on the satisfying harmony of science and faith, you might be surprised to find on my shelves nearly everything written by Richard Dawkins (including "The God Delusion") and my late friend Christopher Hitchens (including "God Is Not Great"). One must dig deeply into opposing points of view in order to know whether your own position remains defensible. Iron sharpens iron.
How do metaphors impact the dialogue between faith and science? We might start by asking: what are the framing metaphors at work in the current debates? Even using the word "dialogue" here suggests an implicit metaphor that frames my approach to the relationship between faith and science. Imagine substituting "dialogue" with "war;" that would conjure a completely different metaphorical framework.
With so many issues to discuss, Christians can easily get the feeling that science is always attacking the faith. It is essential to balance such conversations with positive responses to God's creation. After all, the primary response to the natural world in the Bible is to praise the God who made it.

Graduation Rates Detail for Brooks Institute
Graduation Rates for Brooks InstituteThe data presented below are from a longitudinal report collected by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) through the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The report follows a group of full-time, first-time, degree/certificate-seeking undergraduate students that started college in a given year. The chart shows the rate that the original cohort received their bachelor's degree in 6 years. The completion rates are the percentage of the cohort that completed within 4, 5, or 6 years. To calculate the rate, all completions up to and including that time-frame are used as the numerator. For example, based on a cohort of 100 students, if 25 students complete their bachelor's degree in 4 years, the 4-year completion rate is 25%. If 15 students take 5 years to complete their degree, the 5-year completion rate is 40%; that is 40% of the original cohort completed their degree within 5 years of starting. If 10 students take 6 years to complete, the 6-year completion rate is 50%. Select a year in the table to see the completions by ethnicity and gender for that cohort.

This story was updated at 7:25 p.m. on Nov. 19, 2012.
Two days after Olijawon Griffin was stabbed to death in Metro's Woodley Park station, friends and former educators grieved for the Olney man.
"Our hearts are very heavy," Sherwood Principal Bill Gregory said Monday.
Metropolitan Police said Griffin, 18, of Olney, was stabbed about 1:15 a.m. in the Metro station and later died of his injuries at a local hospital. He had been robbed earlier in the night and then ran into the assailants later with two of his friends, when he was stabbed, police said.
Chavez Tyrek Myers, 17 of District Heights has been charged as an adult with murder, authorities said. Authorities said Myers had been charged as an adult with second-degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
Eight others still face juvenile criminal charges in connection with the case. One was charged with aggravated assault and robbery, while the rest were charged with aggravated assault, police said.
Authorities have not identified the juvenile suspects. At least one other suspect was still being sought Monday.
Griffin was a 2012 graduate of Sherwood High School in Sandy Spring, where he played as a linebacker and tight end for the Sherwood Warriors, according to Mike Bonavia, his coach.
"He feared nobody," Bonavia said. "He was very tough as a player."
Griffin put his team above his personal desires. He preferred playing as a linebacker, but he once sensed that his team needed him as a lineman, Bonavia said.
The young man told the coach, "'Give me a lineman jersey number,' [which would allow him to play on the line], and before I even said anything, he had it on."
Griffin had talked to him about playing college ball at King's College in northeastern Pennsylvania, he said.
Members of Griffin's family could not be reached. In an interview with ABC-7 TV, his mother Lunette Griffin urged authorities to charge more of the suspects as adults in her son's killing.
Her son stood "six-foot-one, weighing 200-and-something pounds," she said in the television interview. "Without their help, Olijawon wouldn't have been stabbed."
At Sherwood on Monday, Griffin's former team and classmates said he was a loyal friend.
"He was always there for people," said Moses Vines, 18, who was a running back on last year's team.
Fitz Mofor, another teammate, said "He was a great leader," recalling a game against Blake High School in 2011, when the Warriors were trailing 7-3 at the half.
"You need to get it together," he said Griffin told them. They won 17-10.
Jordan Johnson, 17, said he had spoken to Griffin two weeks ago. Griffin, who had just started a job at the National Institutes of Health, "was talking about how he was going to take us shopping," he said.
He also took part in Sherwood's Rock 'n' Roll Revival, an annual show the school has put on for decades.
"He put a personal touch into it," said Erica Everett, a Sherwood senior.
He worked as a contract driver's assistant in the Waste and Resource Recovery Branch of NIH's Office of Research facilities since late October, according to an agency spokeswoman.
D.C. Superior Court documents revealed a more complex situation Monday after more details emerged.
In court documents made public Monday, police said Griffin went into an Adams Morgan alley to buy marijuana from a group of young men shortly after midnight Saturday; when he returned, he said the men had attacked and robbed him at gunpoint, taking his black Helly Hansen jacket and an iPhone.
Griffin and two friends then walked to the Metro station to head home, according to the court documents, finding the group that had robbed him — there were perhaps as many as 12, police said — on the platform.
One of them, the court documents say, was wearing his jacket.
"Give me my jacket back!" Griffin said. "You're going to have to see us!" replied the teen who wore it, the documents say. After an argument, members of the group attacked one of the people with Griffin, according to the documents.
Griffin and another person he was with made for the station manager's kiosk, the court papers said, but then Griffin went back to aid the one who remained on the platform. The other told investigators he lost sight of Griffin after reaching the station manager.
According to the court documents, a police officer watched Metro security footage that shows what happened next: While Griffin engaged one teen in a boxing-style fistfight, Myers snuck up behind him with a knife, stabbed him in the chest and ran away.
Myers denied a role in the robbery of Griffin, the documents said.
A second victim, whom police have not named, was also attacked. The second victim was taken to the hospital in stable condition. Friends identified him as a fellow teammate.
Counselors were available at Sherwood High School on Monday to help those grieving, said Dana Tofig, spokesman for Montgomery County Public Schools.
Parents of children who might need more assistance coping with Griffin's death can contact the school, he said.
Avis Kapepula, one of Griffin's neighbors, said her son Daniel played pick-up basketball when they weren't playing football.
"Right there on the steps, they'd sit and talk," she said, nodding towards the stoop two doors down from her house.
"We needed more guys like him. We're all shocked."
Gazette staff writer Kate S. Alexander contributed to this report as did Washington Post staff writers Martin Weil, Michael Laris and Peter Hermann.

Gaithersburg residents reported another sighting Thursday of a black bear first spotted in the area Tuesday.
County police received calls about a bear seen near Twelve Oaks Drive and Clopper Road in Gaithersburg about 8 a.m., according to a county press release.
Montgomery County police have received multiple reports of black bear sightings in Gaithersburg and Germantown since June 18.
On Tuesday at 8:12 a.m., county police received a call about a black bear around Middlebrook Road and Frederick Road in Germantown. The next day, at 7:15 a.m., county police received a similar call for a bear near Quince Orchard Road and Darnestown Road in Gaithersburg. County Police Officer Rebecca Innocenti said the bear was seen running toward Sioux Lane.
According to Gaithersburg Police Officer Dan Lane, city and county police were unable to locate the bear.
"After speaking with representatives from [the Maryland Department of Natural Resources]," Lane said, "it was advised to leave the bear alone and let him go back to his natural habitat."
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources advises residents to give bears their space. Do not attempt to feed them, and store food in secure places.
"Black bears may be seen any time of day and are typically not aggressive," according to the department's press release.
"In early summer each year, young bears disperse, or move out, to find a territory of their own," said Harry Spiker, DNR Game Mammal Section Leader in a press release. "They have been known to travel 100 miles or more while searching for suitable place."
In recent years, DNR has confirmed black bear sightings in Montgomery, Carroll, Baltimore, Howard, Harford, Cecil, Anne Arundel and Prince George's counties. Sightings typically peak in late June and early July but may persist throughout the summer months. These juvenile bears, which may weigh anywhere between 65 and 200 pounds, eventually move on to more attractive bear habitat, according to the Department of Natural Resources release.
