Escape from North Korea: The Untold Story of Asia's Underground Railroadby Melanie Kirkpatrick
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
From the worlds most repressive state comes rare good news: the escape to freedom of a small number of its people. It is a crime to leave North Korea. Yet increasing numbers of North Koreans dare to flee. They go first to neighboring China, which rejects them as criminals, then on to Southeast Asia or Mongolia, and finally to South Korea, the United States, and other free countries. They travel along a secret route known as the new underground railroad.
With a journalists grasp of events and a novelists ear for narrative, Melanie Kirkpatrick tells the story of the North Koreans quest for liberty. Travelers on the new underground railroad include women bound to Chinese men who purchased them as brides, defectors carrying state secrets, and POWs from the Korean War held captive in the North for more than half a century. Their conductors are brokers who are in it for the money as well as Christians who are in it to serve God. The Christians see their mission as the liberation of North Korea one person at a time.
Just as escaped slaves from the American South educated Americans about the evils of slavery, the North Korean fugitives are informing the world about the secretive country they fled. Escape from North Korea describes how they also are sowing the seeds for change within North Korea itself. Once they reach sanctuary, the escapees channel news back to those they left behind. In doing so, they are helping to open their information-starved homeland, exposing their countrymen to liberal ideas, and laying the intellectual groundwork for the transformation of the totalitarian regime that keeps their fellow citizens in chains.
"Tales of escape from the brutal Kim dynasty moved former Wall Street Journal staffer Kirkpatrick to create this vivid account of North Koreans who dared to make the leap for liberty. The author writes that 'Sixty years of political oppression have not dulled North Koreans' appetite for freedom;' indeed, since 1953, roughly 24,000 of the 24 million people living in North Korea have fled to South Korea, Europe, or North America. The famine of the 1990s compelled many to seek food in China, where perhaps tens of thousands live in hiding or are married to Chinese nationals. But if caught and repatriated, they face 'persecution and severe punishment.' Meanwhile, corps of for-profit smugglers and humanitarian groups comprising dedicated Christian missionaries and Korean-Americans are quietly at work to lead people to safety: Helping Hands Korea, a group founded in 1996, used America's Underground Railroad, which funneled slaves from the South to the free North, as a model for their organization. In addition to her analysis of the political climate of the country and the international community's response to its plight, Kirkpatrick presents harrowing testimonies from dozens of North Korean refugees to produce a timely portrait of a people desperate for freedom — Kim Cheol-woong, a classically trained pianist, remarked that 'One of the hardest things I have experienced since leaving North Korea is having to choose what to play.'

Hi after, searching for an answer on how to remove
ul and li tags from a WP NAV MENU, I found this solution:
$foot_nav = wp_nav_menu( array( 'container' => '', 'echo' => '0', 'theme_location' => 'registrations' ) );
$foot_nav2 = preg_replace( array( '#^
]*>#', '#
$#' ), '', $foot_nav );
$foot_nav2 = preg_replace( array( '#
]*>#', '#
$#' ), '', $foot_nav2 );
echo $foot_nav2;
My only issue with this is I would like to add a BREAK after each link so the nav looks as follows:
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
... how can I accomplish this? I tried to PM the OP but no way of doing so.
Thanks for the help

One of the benefits of cloud is being able to iterate quickly. There's a saying in the software development world that we can't post here due to profanity, but if you're curious, you can view it on the Startup Vitamins website here. Bottom line: Cloud allows you to develop products quickly, so you can launch them, test them, and revise them at minimal cost if you get something wrong.
That brings us to the product name. Certainly, Cisco, like all other big companies, has branding guidelines. Those guidelines are there both to protect the amazing brand Cisco has built over the last few decades, and to give customers a sense of familiarity across a broad set of products and services. When naming a product or service, the expectation is that the chosen name is descriptive. Metacloud OpenStack™ was a recognized distribution of OpenStack, but when we were acquired, we were able to transfer the distribution rights to Cisco. Our distro became "Cisco OpenStack®" and the rest of our product was descriptive. Thus "Cisco OpenStack® Private Cloud" became the new product name.

The app runs in the background comparing the iphones current location with the facebook friends 'check in' position.

Okay, first things first I like the theme of what's supposed to be happening—your idea is great. But it's all going tooooo fast. You need to leave some space for surprise in it. Okay, in the first paragraph you put "tuff" instead of the word "tough". I really liked the third paragraph though. It was very descriptive. Try incorporating more of that writing style in the rest of the story. Everything just sort of happened, you want to make the readers FEEL it too, ya know?

FORT COLLINS, Colo. - Junior guard Daniel Bejarano led all scorers with 23 points, but it was not enough as Colorado State (14-13, 5-9 MW) dropped its third consecutive contest, 84-72, against Boise State on Tuesday night.
"We lost to a very good team tonight," Head Coach Larry Eustachy said. "I love the way that we just kept fighting. We make mistakes, but we play through them. We just got beat by older and more skilled guys tonight."
Junior forward J.J. Avila was second on the team with 13 points and a career-high eight assists, while junior guard Dwight Smith and freshman guard Carlton Hurst each scored 11 to provide the Rams with valuable contributions off of the bench.
"Carlton was the hardest playing guy on the court and Dwight is finally getting healthy again; he competed really well," Eustachy said of his two reserves. "It's definitely ositive that those guys can give us that from here on out."
It was not enough to keep pace with a Boise State offense that shot lights-out from the field, however. Led by junior guard Anthony Drmic's 19 points, five rebounds and five assists, the Broncos shot a blistering 54.7 percent from the field, including 13-22 (59.1 percent) from the three-point line.
"He's the best shooter in the league, no question about it," Eustachy said of Drmic. "He's the best shooter I've seen in a long time; we just lost him at times."
Providing nice balance for Boise State, Colorado native Thomas Bropleh added 18 points, all in the second half, and Derrick Marks scored 13.
The two teams statistically were very even for much of the game, which featured two ties and three lead changes. The Rams led by as much as six points in the first half, but a 12-0 run by the Broncos put Boise State ahead for good at 31-25 with 5:41 left in the first half.
The Rams got as close as four points in the second half, but couldn't manage to get enough stops to counter Boise State's hot shooting from the outside. In the end, Boise State outscored the Rams by 21 points from the three-point line, connecting on 13 three-pointers compared to just six for CSU, which proved to be the difference in the game.
"They're a good three-point shooting tea, and they proved it." Smith said.
Colorado State returns to action for a showdown against Border War rival Wyoming, which sits in fourth place in the Mountain West, on Saturday afternoon. The game, which will be CSU's annual Orange Out game to honor the tradition of the school's past history as the Colorado A&M Aggies, will tip off at 4 p.m. MT and will be televised on ROOT Sports.

Mickey King (Michael Caine) writes pulp, lives pulp and very soon could be pulp. While ghostwriting an autobiography for Hollywood star Preston Gilbert (Mickey Rooney), Mickey ends up investigating a murder....
Pulp is a little-seen yet still entertaining black comedy from Michael Caine's prolific mid-career period of the early 1970s. While Sleuth fared much better at the box office in 1972 (mainly due to the dynamic pairing of Caine and Laurence Olivier), there's much to enjoy in this droll, wickedly sarcastic effort from Mike Hodges, who had previously directed Caine in the acclaimed 1971 thriller Get Carter. You can detect some of that film's darker sensibility here, with Caine giving a laid-back and jaded performance as Mickey King, a pulp novelist of dubious reputation who's agreed to ghost-write the autobiography of Preston Gilbert (Mickey Rooney), a Hollywood has-been who specialized in playing gangsters, now living in a sun-baked villa on the island of Malta. As it turns out, Gilbert's been keeping some dangerous secrets, and shortly after Mickey arrives on the island, Gilbert is murdered and the now-unemployed ghost-writer is the killer's next target. As Mickey tracks down clues by interviewing potential suspects, his voice-over narration (of which there is plenty in this casually-paced mystery) begins to reflect how his own life has become like one of his overcooked potboilers, and half the fun comes from hearing how he's embellishing events as they unfold. Rooney's a comedic standout during his brief time on-screen, and there's some fine support from Lionel Stander as Gilbert's lazy bodyguard, and long-legged beauty Nadia Cassini (who went on to a modest career in Italian films) as Gilbert's mistress. Note to film buffs: Keep a lookout for Al Lettieri (best known as "Solozzo" from The Godfather), in addition to a small but pivotal role for Robert Sacchi, who made a career for himself as "The Man with Bogart's Face." Pulp may not make you laugh out loud, but it'll definitely keep you smiling. --Jeff Shannon

A recent two-year study in California by the state Department of Public Health showed that even in recent years, sponges made up 40% of all unintentionally retained foreign surgical objects, and is the subject of an upcoming hospital-wide prevention project.
Retained foreign objects not only add to the length of hospital stays, but they add to hospital costs, put the patient at greater risk of developing an infection, and often require they undergo another invasive procedure, which some patients may not be healthy enough to withstand.
In conclusion, she wrote, RF technology in surgical sponges "is an appropriate option to consider when redesigning healthcare system to prevent 'never events' and enhance patient safety."

Open Thread: The FCIC Says Who's to Blame for the Financial Crisis
On Thursday morning, the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission released its final report to the president and the public on the causes of the 2008 financial crisis.
One major finding: The 2008 financial crisis was avoidable.
The ten-member commission was formed in 2009 to take a closer look at the causes of the financial meltdown and the resulting near-failure of major financial institutions who were eventually bailed out by the government.
The FCIC's report will be nearly 600 pages and is the result of nearly 700 witness interviews, reviews of millions of pages of documents and 19 days of public hearings around the country, many of them in New York.
Though bipartisan in name, the Commission was split down partisan lines throughout the investigation. Of the ten FCIC members, only the six Democrat-appointed Commissioners endorsed the final report.
The Republican Commissioners have written a minority report, expressing their disapproval with the majority report and Republican Commissioner Peter Wallison wrote his own dissent.
Nocera, for one, agrees with the Majority report's finding that former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, and his support of deregulation of the banking system, is culpable.
I do think that he is the single most culpable individual in the entire thing. His refusal to take seriously the part of his job where he was to protect the banking system. He just opted out. And because he has such a profound deregulatory bias, and because he was so powerful in Washington and his instincts held so much sway, he basically caused the entire federal government to follow him off the cliff.
What the report says:
- The Federal Reserve did not do enough to reign in banks, singling out Alan Greenspan for backing "30 years of deregulation."
- The report criticizes the Bush administration for its "inconsistent" response to the crisis which built up uncertainty to the markets.
- Low interest rates brought about by the Fed after the 2001 recession, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the big mortgage finance companies, and the government's "aggressive homeownership goals" were not major culprits.
- Regulators, like the the Securities and Exchange Commission, failed to require big banks to hold enough capital in case of potential losses from risky practices.
- It blames the Clinton administration for "sweeping deregulation" of derivatives, which was a "key turning point" in the progress of the financial crisis.
What the Dissenting Commissioners say:
- The Republicans blame the credit bubble which they say was inflated by increased investments in high risk mortgages, including the nontraditional mortgages pushed by firms like Countrywide Financial Corp. and Washington Mutual Inc.
- They also blame the housing bubble that started in the late part of the 20th century.
- They say U.S. monetary policy might have contributed to the credit bubble, but it wasn't the cause.
- Wallison's dissent argues the government housing policy, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, during the Clinton and Bush administrations, layed the foundation for the meltdown when it backed risky loans and that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac fueled the subprime bust when they bought a lot of those bad mortgages.
"A pox on all houses," quoth WNYC's economics editor Charlie Hermann, ala Shakespeare. The report quotes the bard as well: "the fault lies not in the stars, but in us."
So, a lot of this breaks down into the debate we've been having since 2008. What do you think? Who do you blame for the financial crisis, and do you think enough's been done to prevent the rest?

Regarding the comment on
"Kanoodle's contextual ad program has fared well"
I checked their prices per click and I found them laughable and totally out of touch with reality with the price point (and profit) of our products.
Thanks again to all who contributed here.
I think Findwhat has a serious click-fraud problem and they know it - which is why they are still rolling out their pay per call service - findwhat bottoms out my list of second-tier PPCs.
So far the results seem to be highly subjective with no across the board conclusion.
I'm sure much has to do with the product or industry that is being promoted.
Can anyone agree from the list... who is 'absolutely' not worth the time and money.
Their Pay Per Call service is a different presentation. It displays a unique 800 number and leads you to a mini-profile page. The merchant only pays for calls made at a minimum of $2 a call and he doesn't need a website! Click fraud is impossible with this system. The market? 14 million businesses world wide, only 4 mil have websites and only 330,000 use PPC advertising. Pay per call has a huge market to tap.
According to Findwhat Pay per call converts 4 Xs better than PPC. It works for the merchant.
The tech is owned by Ingenio who is funded in part by Paul Allen's Vulcan Ventures.
I'm a little leary of FindWhat's Pay Per Call. I like that affiliates are out of the equation, but do they charge for repeat calls? What happens when a competitor gets hold of the number - wouldn't that drain a budget pretty fast?
As for the phone idea ...it would not work in our industry. We carry over 300,000 products and if we had to pay $2 per phone call plus the 800 long distance charges and then try to answer all the questions while on the phone...there would be no profit...just a big expense.
I'll just keep experimenting I guess...like the rest of you....

The Denbighshire region
Famous for its choirs, stunning mountain ranges and beautiful valleys, this wonderful country has something for everyone. From Snowdonia in North Wales to the Brecon Beacons and the Pembrokeshire Coast in the South.
Ruthin has its origins in the 13th Century and was a popular market-town. Evidence of its long and illustrious history can be found in the beams and brickwork in buildings throughout the town. Pendref Chapel is Ruthin's oldest chapel, dating back to around 1827. Other impressive medieval buildings include Maen Huail, where, according to legend, Huail was beheaded for trying to scupper King Arthur's quest for true love. In addition to sites of historical interest, many of the pubs and inns in Ruthin have their own tales to tell, such as the 16th Century Myddleton Arms; the site of many cock-fights and having an unusual window arrangement known locally as 'the eyes of Ruthin'. Other attractions near to Ruthin include the striking ruins of Denbigh Castle and Valle Crucis Abbey, which dates back to the 13th Century.

I feel there are many reasons to elect Mayor Terry Cruse sheriff of LaRue County. He is an experienced lawman with many years of excellent service for LaRue County and more recently, serving as mayor of the City of Hodgenville with the same high level of integrity in that position.
Our precious little granddaughter Autumn Rae was amazing Dennis and I this weekend with her ability to read. It was a piece of mail Dennis had received and she pronounced a lot of big words for a first grader and we were beaming with pride at our latest prodigy. But what she was reading sent me into my latest rant.
On behalf of the LaRue County Youth Baseball/Softball Leagues, I would like to thank the community for their support in making our workday at the park a huge success. Thanks to those individuals who took time out of their busy weekend schedule to help us make the park a safer more vibrant place for the children in our community to play.
If you could save someone's life, would you? Most of us would, if given the opportunity, which is exactly what choosing to be an organ donor does.
With over 106,000 Americans awaiting a life-saving organ transplant and hundreds of thousands more waiting for a cornea or tissue transplant, consider joining the Kentucky Donor Registry.
The LaRue County Relay for Life is May 14 at Hodgenville Elementary School. This is the third in a series of cancer survivor stories to bring awareness to this cause.
About 17 1/2 years ago, we were blessed with our first grandchild, Austin Lee, affectionately called "Little A." We thought we had died and gone to Heaven with love over-flowing in our hearts for this dear baby. We have since been blessed with four more grandchildren, Brittney, 16, Brianna, 14, Autumn, 7, and Jonah, 2 and they're all very dear to our hearts.
This cancer journey is a very new one to me as I was diagnosed Feb. 17. My prayer is that it will make a difference to someone; a positive in their life, a hope.

I got this product from the consumer class action lawsuit and I was excited to try a clinique moisturizer after so many years of trying various beauty products. I liked it a lot because the texture was very smoothing and made my skin feel like a baby's bottom. However, I had to keep reapplying layers within the same 30 min. of initial application to keep my skin from feeling dry. After I read up reviews and realized that it is meant to be used as a product for problem areas after a real moisturizer, I got really confused on why they even marketed this product so much as a moisturizer.
However, with "age"...yes age, done with school, and dealing with the adult life, my skin had became increasingly and absurdly sensitive (flush easily, red blemishes, sun burn easily, etc). I wanted to go back to something old school-ish like clinique as i had used from the past. It seemed it helped my skin a bit from the redness and smoothness. NOTE:: i used this as a moisturizer over cleansed skin. At night however, I put on a thick layer , let it sink in and then I apply DHC olive oil over it and massage it in. When i wake up, my skin looks very well rested. I'm not sure if i'm using it right, but there is no way the moisture surge could stay on my face after the olive oil application.
In the morning, i rinse my face with water and then i apply layers of the moisture surge if i'm having a lazy day inside the house. And i have had no other problems with the "moisturizer" so I like it right now. However i'm worried about the long term results because It's not a real moisturizer and i'm using it as if it is. So I've yet to find a moisturizer that makes me feel as nice as this clinique one...But for now, I probably would buy again since it makes me feel better than other beauty products that have given me problems.

I, too, got a jar of this as part of the cosmetics lawsuit settlement. Let me preface this review by stating that I have terribly sensitive, easily irritated skin. Some days my skin reacts to nothing more than water on a soft washcloth and I end up with beet red cheeks and little angry bumps everywhere. Thankfully, however, I am not prone to acne (small favors) and often have dry patches in the winter.
This is a lovely, gel moisturizer that is (according to the insert) meant to be more of a boost to your regular moisturizer than a stand alone product. It has great slip, sinks in effortlessly, and leaves my face feeling smooth. It definitely does not give enough moisture to my dry skin on its own, but it didn't irritate me in the slightest and that is astounding. I couldn't have been happier!
Alas, within a few days I had some serious underground acne on my cheeks. I never get acne of that sort (other than the occasional, hormone related white head) and there could be little doubt it was because of the Moisture Surge. So sad! I am going to give it 3 lippies anyway, because it may not clog everyone's pores. It feels like it should be a great moisture boost!

I rated it 3 for the price since regularly it is pricey (5) but I got it as a sample from the class case. I thought it worked really well in terms of hydration. my skin did feel smooth in the morning since i was using it as a night moisturizer. but i realized that I had gotten small bumps on my cheeks which never had before and white heads on my forhead. I continued to use it doubting that this was the problem but now I think im gonna stop for awhile and see if it clears my skin. ill update soon.

I, too, got this as part of the mall lawsuit. It's okay, once I wash it off my skin feels really soft (but really this is the effect that I get from any other moisturizer). I have relatively dry skin, and it still leaves my skin feeling sticky, like I rubbed straight aloe vera gel on it or something. If you want something that sinks into your skin and makes it velvety-soft, this is not the product for you. It stays on the surface and doesn't really do that much. It didn't make me break out, and it was free, hence a 2/5 rating as opposed to 1/5.

I am surprised at the bad reviews for this product. This is my HG night moisturizer, but again I do have combo oily prone skin so I absolutely love the fact that this is a GEL CREAM. It is so light and fluffy adn water based and litrealyl melts intor your skin like a healthy drink of water when you put it on and leaves my skin feeling like smooth silk. For us girls who have combo skin, acne prone, oily, or sensitive this is a must ahve product since it again is completely greaseless unlike many eve light moisturizers (which I have never been able to use sicne they always end up getting greasy on my skin). If you someone who needs a lot of cream moisture then this might be too light for your but I truly feel like it can work for every skin type who likes a very clean moisture feel.
I lvoe this so much I even use it as an eye cream which instantly plumps and leaves my eyes looking great @ night. It ofcourse doesn't have any antiaging benefits (hence why I use a day eye cream with those) but am jsut soo in love with the cool water moisture feel it gives to my face and especiialy my eyes feeling so refreshed (unlike many heavy and silicony fake feeling eye creams).
Try this product you will love it ( I am so glad I got a sample of this in the the mall lawsuit incident recently) otherwise I would have never thought or known this was a gel cream and the only comparable I have ever seen of its kind is the Shu Uemura B-G Reinforcing Gel Cream which is pricier.

I absolutely love this product as a moisturizer for my face =) At first I was skeptical that this was going to grease my face, clog my pores, etc. The product definitely made me a believer and lives up to its product name =) It is not greasy at all. It absorbs fast onto my skin. After I put it on, it makes my face very soft. I love it!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT! If you cannot tell, I love this product. My skin feels so soft and my lines feel plumped up. I feel mosturized, not greasy at all and it always feels like it is just enought mosture. Not too little, not too much. I wish this came in a body formula! :) I joke to my husband that is my crack. LOL! I do layer this over my Acne Solutions Moist. also from Clinique to keep the acne away.

I love this product. It feels so good on my skin and keeps it moist all day. I use it under makep and have even used it over makeup to refresh it during the day. It creates a wonderful base for my foundation and just feels great! I will definetely purchase again.

I was a little surprised to read about negative reviews on this product. I really like it! After you apply it, it gives an instant silky touch feel to your face, which I love. My skin is more on the oily side so I need a lot of moisture but not oil. And I think this product serves me very nicely.
I haven't noticed any breakouts yet. I have been using it for like 2 weeks. I am almost out of my gift-size sample and am planning on getting a normal-size one tomorrow.

How the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 gives Harlequins a competitive edge
You might not think of rugby as a high-tech sport, but things have changed massively in the past 10 years. The sport has grown more professional, and there's more money involved. With more money comes better tools to improve performance, but also more pressure to succeed - not just in the way all sportspeople want to succeed, but in ensuring sponsorship and other financial opportunities can carry on.
So when Samsung approached Harlequins about using its Galaxy Note II, the team leapt at the opportunity. They were excited about the technology but, in a world where every tiny advantage makes a difference, you have to jump on every option to improve. And while the team hadn't used Android before, technology has been playing a part for a long time now, and it's paying dividends - as you can see by the Quins' recent Aviva Premiership winning performance.
Perhaps what's most surprising is the passion with which the team talk about the Note 2. Of course, we were sold on it as a device when we reviewed it, but the Quins' coaches were all very honest with us about the device. Until recently, sporting technology has been dominated by Apple.There are lots of iPads and Macs running specialised software that helps the team monitor their performance, but the transition to Android has presented no real problems at all.
READ: Samsung Galaxy Note II review
When we talked to the coaches, they were full of praise for both the device itself, and also some of the apps available on multiple platforms. Dropbox, for example, is used extensively for storing video clips from matches. The team can then look at them during practice to give advice on technique, and to make sure that players aren't wasting practice time with flawed moves. This is a boon because previously you would have had to get players into the office to watch video playback, something that eats into valuable practice, or rest time, when it's far better addressed while out on the field.
Also used for matches is EyeTV, which allows the coaching staff to pause and rewind live TV. This allows them to see what's going on during the game, and to make adjustments. Rugby, thankfully, doesn't have the same attitude to video support that football has had until very recently. And it seems that this is a valuable tool for the team.
There's also a lot of focus on the players, both in terms of the amount of practice they're doing and how they eat. During training, each player wears a GPS tag which allows the coaches to see who is working hard, who's slacking off - seriously, it happens apparently - and who is overworking themselves. Then there are other tools that enable the coaches to keep an eye on what everyone is eating, and make sure diets are properly balanced.
Conor O'Shea, head of rugby for Harlequins, told us that the GPS system the team uses is incredibly accurate. It's locally based, with the data is stored on a computer in the office. Before the Note, you'd have to go back upstairs to look at it, which could mean people just didn't bother. Now, the Note II gives them access to that data in real time, which allows them to manage the team's practice better. We got the distinct impression that meant telling people off, and O'Shea even mentioned fines. This is a job like any other, and performing is essential.
Of course, a lot of this could be done on any phone, so why is the team so sold on the Note II? Well, the S Pen has a lot to do with it. Currently, a lot of the stats are stored in an Excel spreadsheet that's stored on a desktop computer. The coaches access their desktop machines over VNC - remote desktop - which allows them to both see and update spreadsheets. The combination of the large screen on the Note, and the pen, means that you can accurately make changes, rather than stabbing at a small screen with your cold fingers. Let's not forget here, that rugby players are not usually all that petite, so large devices work well for their less-than-dainty hands.
The pen is also useful for annotating images and video. An app called Coach's Eye allows trainers to record video on the Note, then show the players afterwards how they could improved and to annotate it with lines and drawings that indicate where the work needs to be done. Mark Mapletoft, former Quins player and now backs coach, told us that it could really help young players with less experience and would prevent players "picking up bad habits". These apps work on other phones too, but the Note's pen is the key here, giving a level of accuracy that you can't get with a finger, or even a third-party capacitive pen.
From our short time at the club's training ground in Guildford, it felt like everyone - even the self-proclaimed computer illiterates - could see the benefits. Line-out captain George Robson showed us his plans for this Saturday's game, but made us promise not to photograph his phone for fear it would give the game away. He was totally sold on the whole device, and that's after just a few weeks with it. And everyone is excited about what the future holds too - new apps and perhaps a way of tying all the information together in one place.
As Conor O'Shea says: "In the game of rugby, and sport in general, everyone does the same thing, but what you're looking to do is make sure you do things more efficiently, and better, and that's what we're able to do with this."

The apartment was in a fantastic location in the hub of the city, right by the cathedral.
We had a great time exploring the city and enjoying the jazz festival.
I would definitely recommend this apartment if you are looking for a cozy flat in beautiful perugia.
Apartment is in the center of the old city, very clean and fully equipped house.
Manuele & Maria Chiara are wonderful hosts and their lovely apartment is in a perfect location, just a few steps and you are in Piazza Novembre at the Duomo. The apartment was immaculate and stocked with items that you would typically use daily. Most importantly, Manuele & Maria Chiara are very kind and caring people and I would not hesitate to recommend their lovely apartment to anyone who is looking for the perfect place to stay in Perugia.
We had a great trip to Umbria and the location of this apartment made things even easier.
The apartment was very clean, light and spacious.
Maria and Manuele were lovely and polite hosts.
Our hosts were great, Maria came and found us when we became lost on arrival. They provided good information about local restaurants and site seeing. The apartment was in a fantastic location in the hub of the city, right by the cathedral. It was really well equipped and more than matched it's description. We will recommend this listing to friends and fellow travellers.
Maria Chiara's place in Perugia is perfect for exploring the city. It is very well situated right in the heart of the town, and is very nice too. The facilities are great, everything worked perfectly and Maria Chiara met us upon arrival to help with any questions. I would certainly recommend this apartment.
Maria you made us very welcome, thank you. Your restaurant recommendations were much appreciated. The description 'lovely apartment in the heart of Perugia' could not be more apt. It is attractive and comfortable and oh so wonderfully central. We had a great time exploring the city and enjoying the jazz festival. Would recommend it to anyone visiting Perugia.
A wonderful location and space. Very spacious, very comfortable.
Manuele met us promptly at the apartment and gave us a brief tour of the apartment. The apartment is lovely - spacious, very clean and well-supplied. It was especially nice that the hosts leave some breakfast items and other basic cooking supplies for use during the stay.
On the map the apartment seems to be in a wonderful, central location for exploring medieval Perugia. However, the apartment is very noisy every night until 3:30am. We stayed for 5 rather sleepless nights; even with the windows tightly closed, the noise from the nighttime activities on the main plaza came into the apartment.
If you are going to join the "community" on the plaza until the wee hours, then this apartment would be a suitable spot for you. If you wish quiet hours from 10pm on, then we would recommend renting a different apartment.
We DID enjoy Perugia and other Umbria hill towns (Assisi and Gubbio) during our stay. The Umbrian countryside is beautiful and the towns are wonderful to explore. Perugia is a good base offering plenty of public transportation, activities, sites to visit, and restaurants.
About the Host, Manuele E Maria Chiara
Mi chiamo Maria Chiara, sono una ricercatrice universitaria; Manuele è insegnante e musicista di jazz. Siamo entrambi di Perugia, amiamo la nostra città e il suo centro storico e potremo darvi tutte le informazioni di cui avrete bisogno per vivere al meglio il vostro soggiorno.

Work to start on Windsor bridgeApril 06,2013WINDSOR Construction is starting soon on replacing a bridge in Windsor which will result in some slowdowns on Interstate 91.
A spokesman for the projects general contractor said the bridge, which crosses Route 44, was built as part of the original highway construction project between 1958 and 1965. It has passed its design life of 50 years.
The Valley News reported that the $20.6 million project is being paid for by 90 percent federal funds and a 10 percent state match.
The southbound span is scheduled to be replaced this year and the northbound bridge will be replaced in 2014.
