Okay, not exactly — they'll be shipped from Pittsburgh's Copacetic Comics. But still, the source of this secret stash of Frank Santoro's long-out-of-print newspaper-format comic about a young man's journey through the down-and-out America of the early 20th century was a long-forgotten box found in his dad's house.
"All the others were destroyed in the fire at my mom's house. No joke," Santoro writes of the discovery.
So once this box is gone, so too is your opportunity to read a pretty stunning comic in its original format. Santoro's visual shifts between realism and impressionism, and what they say about his protagonist Will's tormented mental state, are a master class in establishing and controlling tone in comics. Order now, but if you miss out, don't worry — you can always spring for the hardcover edition from PictureBox.

D-Link DSM-320. I have the DSM-320 wired. With this player it's hard
to tell if the problems are the player software, the server software
or most likey, both. The UPNP protocal may be part of the problem too.
I have evertying set up to send MP3's, Pictures, and a couple of
videos. The MP3's and Internet radio work fine. Dealing with long
lists of music (several hundred artist) is slow, I suspect this is
caused by a combination of the NSLU2 and the UPNP protocal. Pictures
and slide shows work OK too. The videos I've tried worked fine. I
have some really old short .mpg files and I played a couple of .vob
files from a ripped DVD. Video wasn't a priority for me but lots of
reports of problems with audio sync and such with other formats. I
also didn't try and FF/RW on the video.
The user interface on the DSM-320 seems clunky to me. It also locks up
hard for no reason every now and then. I think this is the cheapest
box that will do all three types of media and it's preformance
reflects that.

Did our review for this title help you decide to do any of the following?
Submitted by johnwilliams on
Jump to navigation
Parents need to know that this book, comprising simple text and pop-up illustrations, is too delicate for little ones. Better to share it with a child sitting on your lap while you carefully turn the pages.
A narrator, unseen until the end, walks through the winter woods, describing the sights and creatures. These include a bear trying to catch fish, a family of mice hiding from an owl, a rabbit carrying a clue to the narrator, a moose, beavers, and more, each of which pops up. On the final spread a cabin surrounded by a pine forest has working colored lights, powered by included and replaceable batteries.
Collectors of pop-up books have most of Robert Sabuda's work, and they won't want to miss this one. His paper engineering is simply the best there is. Unlike some of his busier and more active books, this one is calm and contemplative, with a lovely, gentle feel. If his Encyclopedia Prehistorica: Dinosaurs was Rock & Roll, this one is New Age.
As a work for kids, though, it is less successful than some of his adaptations of others' writing. The text is instantly forgettable, and the color scheme is problematic. Some of these animals are so abstract that without color clues children may have difficulty making them out. Nevertheless, the abstraction, gentle prose, and mild mystery of the narrator make this a wonderful book for an adult and child to puzzle out together in front of the fire on a cold winter's night.
Families can talk about who the narrator is, a secret hinted at on several pages but only subtly revealed on the last spread. Even there it's a bit metaphorical, and younger kids may need help sorting it out. What does the snowman stand for? What hints are there throughout the book?

Hi Alex,
I'm trying to get the free version of your plugin to work. I've entered the shortcode with the twitter widget ID in place but I get the error message:
The connection to twitter has returned an error. Please try again later.
Of course, I have checked my code and as you can see on this test site, the twitter widget ID I have is working fine in the twitter native timeline embed and also in the Jetpack plugin: http://timbaggaley.co.uk/sketch/
I particularly liked your feature of showing only the tweets of the last seven days, I realise I will need the Pro version to get this feature back but as I'm sure you will understand, I need to see the free version working again before I buy.
Please advise
Tim, London

Definitely Louisa! My daughter's middle name was Louisa until she was 4 weeks old. lol We ended up changing it because DH kept accidentally calling her Arwen Elizabeth. I still love Louisa though and it's connection with Louisa May Alcott and Little Women. Not to mention, Poppy and Lulu is just too cute! Congrats on your new wee one!~Cathryn Elizabeth~

Vivian! It evokes sass and sensuality (as does Penelope for me due to Penelope Cruz association) whilst still maintaining the elegance that Louisa has. Louisa is pretty and classic but just a little bit dull in comparison.... Having said that Lulu is cute and spunky and sounds great with Poppy. They are both gorgeous, but my vote definately goes to Vivian!!!

For some inexplicable reason, composer Frank Wildhorn frequently gets a bad rap, accused of copying from other composers or just being a giant step below the quality of say, Stephen Sondheim, Kander & Ebb, or Jerry Herman, among others. Many forget Wildhorn is responsible for the beautiful music of The Scarlet Pimpernel, Dracula the Musical and more recently, Bonnie and Clyde, as well as Jekyll & Hyde. Wildhorn's popular tunes, especially the ballads are glorious, verging on opera and stand on their own as hits, such as 'This Is the Moment', 'Once Upon a Dream', 'In His Eyes' and 'A New Life' all from his Jekyll & Hyde score. Combining talent with great lyricist / book writer Leslie Bricusse is a little miracle, so Wildhorn comes up, in fact, a real winner. And in Candlelight's current stellar revival, the show is a darkly rich feast for the eyes and ears, just in time for Halloween. Jekyll & Hyde will play out its intriguing game of good versus evil at Candlelight through November 23. (more...)

Global Data Interview
I applied through college or university. The process took a week. I interviewed at Bloomberg L.P..
Phone interview with HR followed by an in-house interview which consisted of two half hour interviews both of which were 2 interviewers and me. They are really friendly at Bloomberg. No drug test at any point.
Interview Questions
- Mostly behavioral questions. I think I was only asked one question related to the markets. Answer Question
No negotiation. Don't even try because they would probably revoke your offer.

I applied through college or university. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Bloomberg L.P..
First interview with a recruiter on campus. Asked regular behavioral questions (What do you know about Bloomberg, Why hire you, Walk me through your resume, A time you showed leadership/worked on a team, How would you apply your background/skills here, Tell me about an event in the market, etc). Took them about 2 months to respond and invited me to Skillman, NJ for a second round interview. (I had about a week to prepare). 2 rounds of interviews, each with two managers at a time. Also asked behavioral questions (except a little more intense) and then got some lunch and a tour of the office. Very nice, but not nearly like the one in NYC. A week later I got a call for an offer to intern in NJ.

of ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP)
in guinea pigs. Ten healthy and 10 gentamicin-treated
guinea pigs underwent oVEMP test using a hand-held
bone-conducted vibrator placed on the animal's forehead.
All 10 healthy animals exhibited bilateral oVEMPs at the
stimulus intensity of 139 dB force level (FL), with a mean
threshold and latencies of peak nI and pI of 130 § 4 dBFL,
3.17 § 0.37 ms and 4.72 § 0.38 ms, respectively. Similar
to response rate, the nI–pI amplitude decreased markedly in
magnitude as stimulus intensity decreased. Another 10 ani-
mals administered with gentamicin (2 mg) on the left ear
1 week after surgery had 100% clear oVEMPs beneath the
left eye (ipsilateral to the lesion side), whereas oVEMPs
were absent and reduced beneath the right eye (opposite to
the lesion side) in 7 and 3 animals, respectively. Morpho-
logical study of animals with absent oVEMPs identiWed
substantial damage to the hair cells of the utricular macula.
Quantitative analysis revealed that histological density of
intact hair cells of the utricular macula from control and
lesion ears were 194 § 15 and 66 § 9 per 130 £ 130 ?m2
This study aimed to establish an animal model
Weld, respectively, showing a 68% reduction in the latter.
Further, the stereocilia of the residual hair cells were either
fused or deformed, and pointed outward randomly. In con-
clusion, this study establishes the animal model of oVEMP
in guinea pigs using bone-conducted vibration stimuli,
which sets the stage for investigating the pathophysiology
of the utricular disorders.

Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic
Vestibular endorgans comprise three semicircular canals
and two otolithic organs, i.e. saccule and utricle. Clinically,
semicircular canals are assessed by caloric test with vide-
onystagmography or the head impulse test (Halmagyi et al.
2001), whereas the saccule and utricle can be examined
using the vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (VEMP)
test. Via air-conducted sound (ACS) stimulation, VEMP
can be elicited from tonically contracted cervical muscles,
the so-called cervical VEMP (cVEMP) (Colebatch et al.
1994), which has been shown to originate from the saccule.
Recent investigations revealed that VEMP can also be
recorded from extraocular muscles, the so-called ocular
VEMP (oVEMP) (Rosengren et al. 2010), which can be
elicited by bone-conducted vibration (BCV) on the fore-
head, and has been referred to the utricular function via a
crossed vestibulo-ocular reXex (VOR) (Iwasaki et al.
Cohen et al. (1964) Wrst studied the eye movements gen-
erated by semicircular canal nerve stimulation in experi-
mental animals. Murofushi et al. (1995) demonstrated that

ACS stimulation is primarily selective for the saccular mac-
ula in guinea pigs. Curthoys et al. (2006) proposed that
BCV stimuli activate both utricular and saccular aVerents in
guinea pigs. These experiments set the stage for establish-
ing animal models for inner ear disorders. Previously, we
have successfully recorded caloric nystagmus in guinea
pigs with experimental perilymph Wstula (Young et al.
1992) and cVEMPs in alert guinea pigs (Yang and Young
2005). Applying gentamicin onto the round window mem-
brane of guinea pigs proved that absent cVEMPs are
strongly correlated with the toxic eVect of gentamicin on
the saccule (Day et al. 2007), mostly type I hair cells (Lue
et al. 2009). As the pathophysiology of the saccular disor-
der has been thoroughly examined, this study aimed to
establish an animal model of oVEMP in guinea pigs to
investigate the pathophysiology of utricular lesions.
Materials and methods
Animal preparation
Ten Hartley-strain guinea pigs weighing 200–220 g were
used in a preliminary study. Each animal was kept alert and
underwent oVEMP test without anesthesia or operation.
Another 10 guinea pigs weighing 200–220 g treated with
gentamicin were also used in this study. Under intraperito-
neal pentobarbital sodium (35 mg/kg) anesthesia, the tym-
panic bulla was opened via post-auricular incision to
expose the round window membrane under operating
microscope (Young et al. 1992). Using a microsyringe, an
amount of 0.05 ml of gentamicin (40 mg/ml) was dropped
directly on the round window membrane of the left ear. To
exclude the eVect of operation, another 0.05 ml of saline
was also dropped onto the right round window membrane
and served as the control. Then, the incision wounds were
sutured and the animal was kept on the recumbent position
with the lesion (left) ear up to ensure the gentamicin contact
with the round window membrane until the animal awoke,
approximately 6 h after operation. Thereafter, animals were
housed at 23 § 2°C and 55 § 5% humidity and fed a solid
diet and tap water ad libitum. One week after surgery, each
animal underwent oVEMP test and then was killed for mor-
phological study.
oVEMP test
Each animal was restrained by a special clamp (Fig. 1),
with its head and body Wxed, but four legs left free in a
prone position (Young et al. 1991). Five subdermal needle-
electrodes (ES43-838, Technomed Europe, The Nether-
lands) were employed. On each side, one active electrode
was inserted vertically on the skin 5 mm above the inferior
orbital rim in or close to the inferior extraocular muscle
without penetrating the eye ball. Another electrode (refer-
ence) was inserted approximately 15 mm below the respec-
tive active electrode. The ground electrode was placed on
the parietal area at the midline. All electrodes were care-
fully inserted with a depth of 5–10 mm from the skin. Since
the subdermal needle-electrode was very Wne (0.4 mm in
diameter), the animal tolerated it very well without bleed-
ing or blinking. If the animal suVered from pain or discom-
fort, struggling of the animal would deWnitely contaminate
the oVEMP waveform, leading to failure of the experiment.
Fortunately, such condition was not observed and each ani-
mal stayed quiet and calm without untoward eVect.
Single square wave stimuli of 0.6 ms in duration were
transmitted to a hand-held vibrator with 1.81 kg in weight,
9.6 cm in height and 7.8 cm in diameter (V201 vibrator,
Ling Dynamic Systems, Royston, England) for head vibra-
tion, which was driven by a custom ampliWer. Drive voltage
was adjusted and Wxed to produce a peak force level (FL) of
139 dB (re 1 ?N) from the vibrator, as measured by an arti-
Wcial mastoid (model 4930, Bruel & Kjaer P/L, Denmark).
The operator held the vibrator by hand and supported most
of its weight such that the pole tip delivered a repeatable tap
on the midline frontal bone of a guinea pig (Fig. 2). During
recording (Smart EP 3.90, Intelligent Hearing Systems,
Miami, FL, USA), electromyographic (EMG) signals were
ampliWed and bandpass Wltered to 1–1,000 Hz. Stimulation
rate was 5 Hz; analysis time for each response was 24 ms;
and 30 responses were averaged for each run. Since the
artifact signal from eye blinks or voluntary eye movement
is larger in amplitude than a normal evoked potential, the
recorded potential exceeding a preset threshold (90 ?V)
was recognized as an artifact and thus rejected during data
acquisition. This automatic online rejection system was uti-
lized to eliminate the disturbance of artifact.
Each animal underwent a serial oVEMP testing, with the
peak stimulus intensity from 139dBFL initially, followed
by 5-dBFL step decrement, until the absence of the wave-
forms. The stimulus intensity was then increased in steps of

animal's body

5 dBFL until the oVEMP response reappeared, and the
threshold was thus determined.
The initial negative-positive biphasic waveform com-
prised peaks nI and pI. Consecutive runs were performed to
conWrm the reproducibility of peaks nI and pI, which were
interpreted by two independent observers, and oVEMPs
were deemed to be present. Conversely, oVEMPs were
deemed to be absent when the biphasic waveform was not
reproducible. Thereafter, the latencies of peak nI and pI,
amplitude nI–pI, and asymmetry ratio (%) were measured.
The latter was deWned as the diVerence of the amplitude nI–pI
on each ear divided by the sum of amplitude nI–pI of both
ears, that is, (larger amplitude ¡ smaller amplitude/larger
amplitude + smaller amplitude) £ 100.
Morphological study
After deep anesthesia with pentobarbital (50 mg/kg) admin-
istered intraperitoneally, all guinea pigs were decapitated.
The utricles were then dissected immediately from tempo-
ral bones, Wxed in 4% paraformaldehyde and 1% glutaral-
dehyde in phosphate-buVered saline (PBS) for 20 min at
20°C, and then permeabilized with 5% Triton X-100 in
PBS for 30 min. Non-speciWc binding was blocked by 10%
fetal bovine serum. The utricular preparations were subse-
quently stained with rhodamine phalloidin (1:100, Sigma–
Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) in PBS for 1 h. Phalloidin
speciWcally binds to F-actin, which is abundant in the
stereocilia and cuticular plate of the hair cells. When the
Xuorescent dye rhodamine conjugated with phalloidin, it
labels F-actin and emits red Xuorescence. After staining,
explants were washed three times with PBS and mounted
onto glass slides with Fluoromount (Molecular Probes,
USA). Finally, slides were examined via confocal micros-
copy (Zeiss LSM 510 Meta, Germany). The excitation
wavelength was 561 nm and the emission wavelength was
long-pass Wltered over 575 nm.
Quantitative analysis of the hair cells in the utricular sen-
sory epithelia was performed on confocal micrographs.
Each micrograph covered an area of 130 £ 130 ?m2. Five
random micrographs from one utricle were selected. The
number of hair cells in each micrograph was counted by
two independent observers and then averaged.
Statistical methods
The response rates among various stimulus intensities were
compared by Cochran's Q test. The relationships between
the stimulus intensity and the latencies or amplitude were
analyzed by one-way analysis of variance test. The
response rates between lesion and control sides were com-
pared by Fisher's exact test. The latencies between lesion
and control sides were compared by Student's t test. The
histological densities of the hair cells between both sides
were compared by Mann–Whitney test. A signiWcant diVer-
ence indicates P < 0.05.
This study was institutional review board approved, was
conducted in accordance with the guideline for the care and

oVEMPs in healthy guinea pigs
Figure 3 illustrates the biphasic nI–pI waveform of
oVEMPs in an alert guinea pig under various BCV stimuli.
The response rates of oVEMP in 10 healthy guinea pigs (20
eyes) at stimulus intensities of 139, 134, 129, and 124
dBFL were 100, 90, 75, and 15%, respectively, demonstrat-
ing that response rates decreased signiWcantly as stimulus
intensity decreased (P < 0.05, Cochran's Q test). The mean
threshold of oVEMP in these animals was 130 § 4
(mean § SD) dBFL.
The mean latencies of the peak nI for BCV stimulation
of 139, 134, and 129 dBFL were 3.17 § 0.37, 3.23 § 0.43,
and 3.37 § 0.41 ms, respectively; the diVerences among
them were non-signiWcant (P > 0.05, one-way analysis of
variance test, Table 1). Likewise, the mean latencies of the
peak pI under BCV of 139, 134, and 129 dBFL did not
diVer signiWcantly (P > 0.05, one-way analysis of variance
test, Table 1).
The mean amplitudes nI–pI stimulated by BCV of 139,
134, and 129 dBFL were 64.2 § 39.8, 45.2 § 26.0, and
31.2 § 16.5 ?V, respectively. Similar to the response rate,
the amplitude nI–pI decreased signiWcantly in magnitude as
stimulus intensity decreased (P < 0.05, one-way analysis of

lated by BCV of 139dBFL is 18 § 8%. Those with asym-
metry ratio >34% were deWned as reduced response.
oVEMPs in guinea pigs under general anesthesia
Exactly how general anesthesia aVects oVEMPs was evalu-
ated by administering healthy guinea pigs pentobarbital
(35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally. No animals displayed the typ-
ical biphasic nI–pI waveform, bilaterally.
oVEMPs in gentamicin-treated guinea pigs
Another 10 animals administered saline (right ear) and gen-
tamicin (left ear) 1 week after surgery underwent oVEMP
test via BCV stimuli. Clear oVEMPs were recorded
beneath the left eye (ipsilateral to the lesion side) in all 10
animals, whereas 7 animals had absent oVEMPs (Fig. 4)
and 3 animals had reduced oVEMPs beneath the right eye
(opposite to the lesion side). No signiWcant diVerence
existed between the two sides in terms of latencies nI and pI
(P > 0.05, Student's t test, Table 2); however, the response
rate diVered signiWcantly between the two sides (P < 0.01,
Fisher's exact test, Table 2). Mean asymmetry ratio of
amplitude in these 10 animals was 80 § 31%.
Morphological study of the utricle
In the control ears, via confocal images of whole mount
preparations of the utricle, the hair cells stained with rhoda-
mine phalloidin were red, and nuclei were blue when coun-
terstained with 4?-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). The
utricle retained its normal architecture with the nuclei of
hair cells lined up with regular gaps. Hair cells were in
order with well-recognized stereocilia on top pointing in a
uniform direction (Fig. 5a).
In the lesion ears, hair cells scattered in the utricular
preparation. The remaining hair cells were in disarray and

At the swearing-in of a new chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, President Obama said the death Friday of al Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen shows the terror network "will find no safe haven anywhere in the world."
"The death of al-Awlaki is a major blow to al Qaeda's most active operational affiliate," Mr. Obama said in a ceremony at Fort Myer in Arlington. "He took the lead in planning and directing efforts to murder innocent Americans."
Mr. Awlaki was killed in what was likely a drone strike Friday morning. He was believed to be behind the "underwear bomber" who tried to blow up a commercial jetliner on Christmas Day 2009, and incited the alleged shooter in the Fort Hood massacre in Texas.
"This success is a tribute to our intelligence community, and to the efforts of Yemen and its security forces who have worked closely with the United States over the course of several years," Mr. Obama said. "He has met his demise because the government and the people of Yemen have joined the international community in a common effort against al Qaeda."
Later, in a radio interview with host Michael Smerconish, the president refused to say whether he had ordered the strike.
"I can't talk about the operational details, Michael," he said. "This is something that we had been working with the Yemeni government on for quite some time. There's been significant cooperation with the intelligence levels with a lot of countries in the region."
Mr. Obama spoke at the swearing-in of Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, who is taking over as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He replaces Adm. Mike Mullen, who is retiring after four years as chairman and 43 years in the Navy.
Gen. Dempsey was sworn in as Army chief of staff on April 11, and had been in that role barely more than a month when Mr. Obama tapped him to become the new chairman. The Senate confirmed him for the position in early August.
The president praised Adm. Mullen for paving the way for women to serve on U.S. submarines, and especially for pushing to end the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy governing gay service members.
"Patriotic service members who are gay and lesbian no longer have to lie about who they are to serve the country that they love," Mr. Obama said.
The president called Gen. Dempsey "one of our nation's most respected and combat-tested generals."
Mr. Obama is asking Gen. Dempsey and new Defense Secretary Leon Panetta to balance future defense spending cuts without compromising military readiness.
The new defense team comes as the administration seeks to wind down wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"None of this will be easy, especially as our nation makes hard fiscal choices," Mr. Obama said. "But as commander-in-chief, let me say it as clearly as I can: as we go forward, we will be guided by the mission we ask of our troops and the capabilities they need to succeed."
"We will maintain our military superiority," he said. "We will never waver in defense of our country, our citizens or our national security interests. And the United States of America, and our armed forces, will remain the greatest force for freedom and security that the world has ever known."
A new congressional report is spelling out how the military would become "hollow" if Congress' supercommittee fails to agree on deficit reductions, triggering $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts.
The Army and Marine Corps would lose 200,000 troops, bringing active strength and the armed forces would not be able to carry out its essential mission, says a 14-page analysis by the Republican majority staff of the House Armed Services Committee.

Two Embedded Maintainers for the Linux Kernel
Kernel 2.6 maintainer Andrew Morton's wish has come true now that he has found not just one, but two new embedded maintainers, Paul Gortmaker and David Woodhouse.
At the Embedded Linux Conference in Mountain View in April, Morton announced that he was looking for a maintainer for the kernel's embedded code (see the separate news item here). The maintainer's job would involve an architecture independent appraisal of the embedded code and generally keeping the code in good working order. "Things can and do break." Morton said at the time, adding that Linux was becoming increasingly important on mobile devices.
Besides the two maintainers for the job, there is also a kernel mailing list to match at "firstname.lastname@example.com". Both maintainers are well-known in the Community: Paul Gortmaker works for Wind River and maintained the real time clock driver and network adapters with the 8390 chip. David Woodhouse previously maintained the Flash filesystem JFFS2 which is used on NAND Flash memory.

NEW YORK, July 3 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Dr. Thomas Hassell, former global vice president of process development at sanofi pasteur, a leading vaccine company, has joined IAVI as vice president for vaccine development. In his new role, Dr. Hassell will lead IAVI's product development efforts that are aimed at rapidly advancing promising vaccine candidates that emerge from the organization's vaccine discovery programs.
Dr. Hassell is trained as a microbiologist and received his Ph.D. at Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom in 1987. He completed his post-doctorate program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a Rockefeller Foundation Fellow in 1989. He has 20 years of experience within industry, working for several leading vaccine developers taking early-stage vaccine candidates all the way through to licensure.
"If we are to defeat AIDS once and for all, we need a vaccine. To develop a vaccine, we need to translate promising concepts into candidates that are tested in humans. My job at IAVI is to make this happen as quickly and safely as possible," said Dr. Hassell.
At sanofi pasteur, Dr. Hassell led a team of 250 researchers who developed vaccines that have been licensed worldwide. Most recently, Dr. Hassell assisted in the national licensure of Pentacel, a childhood combination vaccine that protects against diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, Haemophilus Influenzae Type B, and polio, and Menactra, the first conjugate vaccine to provide protection against four strains, A,C,Y and W, of bacterial meningitis. Dr. Hassell also oversaw the launch of a series of new, state-of-the-art vaccine development facilities in Canada, France and the United States that have enabled sanofi pasteur to better support their existing vaccine portfolio, as well as to allow more rapid development of their new vaccines.

BT Broadband review 2015
BT is the oldest and most popular broadband provider in the UK. It has a wide range of broadband services, and you can add BT Sport along with several other extras.
However, it doesn't offer the fastest broadband, and its fibre service, BT Infinity, isn't available everywhere. There are also activation fees.
Is BT any good?
BT has the widest broadband coverage in the UK. It has a lot to offer, including truly unlimited usage plans and extras. Plus, with over five million wi-fi hotspots around the country, you can browse the web while you're away from home.
But it's not all good news. You'll have to pay an activation fee with BT Infinity (the fibre broadband service), and BT's customer service has slipped in recent years. Here's the full lowdown…
Pros and cons
- Widest coverage in UK
- Some plans are truly unlimited
- Save money with line rental saver
- Add TV and phone to any broadband package
- Plenty of extras including BT Sport
- Below average customer service
- Activation fee with fibre
- It comes with line rental
- BT Infinity isn't available everywhere
- Charges apply if you go over your capped usage
What we like
Widest coverage in UK
BT standard broadband is available to over 99% of UK homes and businesses. Its fibre optic broadband service, BT Infinity, is available to 68% of the population. If you're in an area that can't get BT broadband you may want to consider other providers, such as Virgin Media.
Some plans are truly unlimited
Truly unlimited usage lets you download as much as you like without any restrictions. Unlike a plan with a usage limit, you won't be charged extra for exceeding an allowance. Furthermore, BT has no traffic management. This means your broadband speed won't slow down during busy hours.
Save money with BT's line rental saver
You have to pay line rental. This costs £17.99 per month. You can save by paying for 12 months in advance with the line rental saver. This costs £194.28, and has to be paid upfront. You can add it when you join or upgrade.
Add TV and phone to any broadband package
Bundling several services can be cheaper than purchasing them from different providers. BT has numerous TV packages and several call plans. You can add them to both standard broadband and BT Infinity. If you don't add them when you join, you can upgrade later.
Plenty of extras including BT Sport
If you take BT TV with BT broadband you get four BT Sport channels for free. These are BT Sport 1, BT Sport 2, ESPN, and BT Sport Europe. If you take BT broadband but don't take BT TV, you will have to pay £5 per month to get the four BT Sport channels.
BT operates five million wi-fi hotspots in the UK and a further three million in international locations. You can use BT's wi-fi as much as like, for free, without using your internet allowance. You can also get a BT Mobile SIM. These BT SIM-only plans last for 12 months and come with a set amount of minutes, texts and data.
What we don't like
Below-average customer service
The quality of BT's customer service has declined in recent years. In Ofcom's latest customer satisfaction survey it scored below average for landline and broadband.
Activation fee with fibre
This only applies to BT's fibre package – BT Infinity 1. The activation fee includes the charge for an engineer to visit the street cabinet (the green box) and in some cases carry out work in your home.
It comes with line rental
Line rental costs £17.99 per month. However, you can save money by paying for 12 months upfront with the line rental saver. You can add this scheme when you upgrade or join BT.
BT Infinity isn't available everywhere
BT's fast fibre optic service, BT Infinity, is limited to certain areas, covering two thirds of the UK population. If you're unable to receive BT broadband, take a look at other providers, such as Virgin Media.
Charges apply if you go over your capped usage
Capped packages come with a usage limit. This can restrict how much you can do online. If you exceed your allowance you'll be charged for every 5GB you use. If you regularly download content, you may want to upgrade to a package with unlimited usage.
How fast is BT Broadband?
BT offers speeds of up to 76Mbps. That's fast enough to stream a dozen high definition (HD) films at once. Upload speeds are also high, allowing you to conduct video calls and stream live video from your home computer without interruption.
Advertised speeds are just an estimate speed you can get. However, Ofcom's reports give you an actual speed you can expect. So how fast is BT really? Let us explore….

Download speed
Download speeds determine how long it takes for content to transfer to your computer from the internet. Download speeds are measured in megabits per second (Mbps), and BT's premium broadband package offers a download speed of up to 76Mbps. However, according to Ofcom, you can expect to get between 59.9Mbps and 63.1Mbps.
Upload speed
Upload speeds determine how long it takes to transfer content from your computer to the internet. Whether you're uploading a picture to Facebook, a video to YouTube or posting a tweet, speed will affect how long it will take. BT's top upload speed is 19Mbps. According to Ofcom's report, in reality you can expect to get an upload speed around 16Mbps.
Can I get BT broadband?
BT broadband has the widest coverage in the UK. However, there are some areas that can't get it. BT standard broadband covers 99% of the population, while BT Infinity (fibre broadband) covers 68%. Our availability checker will tell you if you can get it.

You can add extra channels, Netflix and Sky Movies – and also Sky Sports if you choose a BT Infinity service. TV Starter is currently free with all BT broadband plans.
You can watch BT Sport on TV
BT Sport is free to all customers who take a BT TV package with broadband. If you just take broadband on its own, you'll get one channel free (BT Sport 1) or can pay £5 per month to get BT Sport 1, BT Sport 2, BT Sport Europe and ESPN to watch via the app and online player.
Bundles require an activation fee
All BT TV bundles require an activation fee. However, if you move house you won't need to pay again.
BT Infinity broadband
There are two types of BT Infinity: 36Mbps and 76Mbps. Fibre broadband is ideal for large households that are constantly online. With BT Infinity you can share your connection with dozens of computers and devices without any disruptions.
BT Infinity isn't available everywhere. Only two thirds of the population can get it. It's also more expensive than standard broadband. Here's what's available…

With TV, there's a choice of four packages: Starter, Entertainment Plus, Entertainment Ultra HD, and Entertainment Max (the latter being for existing customers only).
Set-up fees apply
BT Infinity 1 requires an activation fee. This covers the cost of an engineer to come and carry out work in your area and home. BT Infinity 2 doesn't require an activation fee unless you bundle it with TV.
Some plans come with a usage cap
BT Infinity 1 plans either have a usage limit, or are truly unlimited. The 20GB capped plan will restrict what you can do online. The truly unlimited plan will not. If you go over your usage limit you'll be charged for every 5GB you use.

You can add TV
All BT's TV packages are available with BT Infinity. Entertainment Plus has over 100 channels and Entertainment Max (for existing customers) has more than 120 channels. You can also add Sky Sports or Sky Movies. BT Sport is available free to all BT TV customers.

BT Infinity 3 and 4
Packages aren't available yet

Don't forget, Cable.co.uk now produces in-depth BT broadband reviews, so don't forget to check them out if you need more information.
BT Home Hub router
To get online you need a broadband router. There are two BT routers available: BT Home Hub 4 for standard broadband, and BT Home Hub 5 for BT Infinity. Both come with four ports for wired connections, and wi-fi for your smartphones and tablets.
It's free, but you have to pay for delivery. If you upgrade to BT Infinity from standard broadband, you might have to pay to get the Home Hub 5. Here's what you need to know…
Is it any good?
Standard broadband comes with the Home Hub 4
The Home Hub 4 is BT's entry-level router. In addition to four ports for wired connections (yellow ports on the back), it also comes with dual band wi-fi. This reduces wireless interference, giving you a reliable signal that is password-protected. Parental controls are included.
BT Infinity comes with the Home Hub 5
It's similar to the Home Hub 4, but is better suited for fibre (BT Infinity). It can handle speeds of up to 1,000Mbps, thanks to the four fibre ports (GigE). It comes with a USB port too. Set up is easy and it comes with in-built protection.
They're free with BT broadband
While it's free, there is a delivery charge. If you're an existing BT customer intending to upgrade from standard broadband to BT Infinity, you'll have to pay for the Home Hub 5. Routers are only free to new customers.
BT Hub 4 Specifications:
- 802.11n dual band 5GHz & 2.4GHz wireless
- 1x Gigabit Ethernet, 3x 10/100 Ethernet
- WPA / WPA2 & WPS security
- USB 2.0 port
BT Hub 5 Specifications:
- 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless
- Integrated VDSL modem
- 4x Gigabit Ethernet
- WPS and WPA/WPA2 security
- USB 2.0 port
BT student broadband
The student broadband package is tailored for second and third-year university students no longer living in halls. It comes with plenty of extras and a nine-month contract. This means you won't have to pay for broadband when you go home for the summer holidays.
BT's student deals will be available to purchase until end of October. Here's everything you need to know.
Download speeds of up to 76Mb
BT offers standard broadband as well as fibre – up to 17Mb and up to 76Mb. These speeds will allow you to connect several devices to the network including smartphones, laptops and tablets.
Short nine month contract
All BT student broadband packages come on a nine-month contract – ideal for an academic year. Plus you won't have to pay when you go home for the summer holidays.
You'll have to pay line rental
All BT student broadband packages require line rental – costing £17.99 per month. Unfortunately there are no inclusive calls included but there is an option to add a call plan.
Add BT Sport for £5
For £5 per month, you can watch the full BT Sport Pack (BT sport 1, BT Sport 2, BT Sport Europe and ESPN) online or on the mobile app. You'll get access to a range of sporting action including the UEFA Champions League and Europa League.
BT business broadband
BT offers a variety of broadband packages for your business. Both standard broadband and fibre options are available. Packages come with extra features, including static IP addresses and technical support.
However, there's a traffic management policy. This means your broadband speed will slow down during busy hours. Here are the deals…

A 24-month contract is a long time to be tied to a company, but it's cheaper overall than the 12-month one. It's worth noting that if you want to cancel your contract before it ends you'll have to pay cancellation fees.
Advanced technical support
BT offers several technical support packages, including BT Prompt Care. This comes with 24/7 customer service, a four-hour response time and aims to get faults repaired by the next working day.
You can add a call plan
All business broadband packages come with a phone line. Most of the 24-month plans come with 500 UK minutes. You can upgrade to a Business Complete call package. This includes 5,000 UK and international landline minutes and 500 mobile minutes. You have to pay line rental.
Static IP addresses are available
Static IP addresses are useful for running a website and communicating with colleagues. You'll be able to access your computer away from your desk, making it easier to work from home. You can add a static IP address for £5.50 per month or purchase up to 13 for a higher price.

How to save money with BT
BT offers packages for standard and fibre broadband (BT Infinity). These come with extras, including BT Sport and free public wi-fi. The packages can be quite pricey, but that doesn't mean you can't save along the way.
You can save by downgrading your package or haggling to get a better deal. Here are our tips…
Pay your line rental in advance
All BT broadband packages come with line rental, which is an added cost to your monthly bill. BT's line rental costs £17.99 per month. However, you'll be able to save by paying for 12 months in advance with the line rental saver. This is available to new and existing customers and involves a one-off fee of £194.28. That's equivalent to £16.19 a month.
Downgrade your broadband
BT offers three download speeds: 17Mbps, 38Mbps and 76Mbps. If you live in a large household that's constantly online, 38Mbps is more than enough. However, 17Mbps is often sufficient. You'll be able to carry out the same online activities and connect several computers without difficulty.
Tell BT you're leaving
If you're an existing BT customer and you're coming to the end of your contract, you won't be tied to the company. This is the best time to save money and tell BT that you would like to leave. Make sure you do your research beforehand and see what other competitors have to offer. BT may be able to match the price, throw in some freebies or give you a better deal.
Frequently asked questions
How do I switch to BT?
Check availability
Before purchasing, use our availability checker to see what's available in your area. Insert your postcode and click the blue button. You'll then be redirected to a list of BT deals that are available to you.
Go to our compare pages to see BT deals
Our compare page will list which BT deals are available to you. See what is on offer, and click on the deal for more details. To order, click on the See Deal button. You'll then be redirected to BT's website to finalise your purchase. If you prefer to talk to an advisor call the number underneath the See Deal button.
You no longer need to tell your current provider you are leaving
The exception to this is if you are currently with Virgin Media, as they operate their own fibre network. If you are with any other provider, you do not need to tell them, and no longer need a MAC code. Simply tell BT you want to join and they will arrange termination with your old provider.
Can I get BT broadband without phone line?
No. All BT broadband packages require a phone line and line rental. You can save on your line rental if you pay for 12 months in advance with the line rental saver.
Can I bundle BT's services?
Yes you can bundle broadband with TV and phone. There are three TV packages to choose from: Starter, Entertainment Plus and Entertainment Ultra HD. Weekend calls come as standard. However, you can upgrade to weekend and evening or anytime calls.
You can also add a BT Mobile SIM to your bundle. Each SIM plan comes with a set amount of minutes, texts and data.
Is BT broadband unlimited?
Some packages come with truly unlimited usage
These are often more expensive than packages with usage caps. Truly unlimited usage means you can download as much as you like without having to worry about extra charges or traffic management.
There's no traffic management
Having no traffic management means your broadband speed won't slow down during busy times. You'll be able to browse the web, stream videos and play games without any disruptions. However, if there are a lot of users online all at once, this may slow down your broadband connection.

Technology has always been a game-changer. In business, in healthcare, in retail, in communications, in relationships. It has improved our lives and in many cases saved our lives. And the advances keep on coming.
Sometimes the innovation is to cure what our new technology has wrought, such as the sedentary lifestyles of information workers. Turns out it's not just the Mountain Dew guzzling and the pizza intake-it's the actual sitting. In the Runner's World article "Sitting is the New Smoking," evidence suggests that even those who are fit are at risk if they sit at length for work or play. The fix? Maybe try a workstation treadmill/bicycle. Other new technology to enhance our lives includes wearable devices that monitor brain waves and warn us when we're getting too much sun, a program that adjusts the lighting in our devices and computers to help with sleep cycles, and a cloud-based learning platform to improve critical care for children around the world. See how technology might be saving your life.
