Weighted Blankets
Are you or someone you love having trouble sleeping through the night? Are you dealing with stress and anxiety? Is your child with Autism having meltdowns?
Calming Comfort
Our therapeutic blankets calm the user by providing proprioceptive input to the body, an effect similar to when you swaddle a baby.

Weighted Blankets
SensaCalm's Affordable Weighted Blankets have helped thousands of families get the sleep they desperately need. Our therapeutic weighted blankets are helpful for those with autism, sensory processing disorder, ADHD and more. Even those with no special needs have found a weighted blanket from SensaCalm can enhance sleep and calm anxiety and stress.
Not only are our therapeutic weighted blankets effective, but they are made with the highest quality materials available and excellent workmanship. They are machine washable and dryer safe. Generally, a blanket will last about 2 years before a child outgrows it. Then, you can trade in your old weighted blanket for a credit towards a new weighted blanket.
Each therapy blanket is tailor-made to the individual and shipped in 10-15 days. Weighted blankets are reversible. We will choose a suitable solid color to go on the other side of your blanket. If there is a color that you DO NOT want us to use, you can let us know in the notes. All weighed blankets are made in the U.S.A.
Key Features
Personalized to match the user's size, weight, and fabric preference.
Machine washable
Machine washable and dryer safe. (Other common weighting materials will start to mold or decay after washing.)
Hypoallergenic & non-toxic
Weighted with non-toxic, hypo-allergenic polypropylene pellets.
Proprietary Sewing Pattern
Sewn so that weight is evenly distributed across the blanket and the edges double-reinforced.
Hypoallergenic Poly-fil stuffing makes the blanket soft and fluffy.

Sized to Fit User
Our blankets range in size from small, for a crib/toddler bed, to queen size. For proper weight distribution, our blankets are sized to fit the user, not the bed.
*The addition of polyfill, which we add for comfort and softness, "draws up" the blanket somewhat, leading to somewhat smaller finished measurements. You can request no polyfill if you choose on all blankets except for clearance.
Wraps and Lap Pads
Wraps are the perfect size to wrap around your shoulders and neck like a scarf, or they can be doubled and used as a lap pad. Our 2 lb lap pads are great for the car, doctor, or any portable need.

Untitled Supernatural/SciFi/Adventure story; example 1
The shadowy figure crept over the road, hunched over and alert, as if the whole worlds troubles were on his shoulders. Not allowing itself the sanctity of the light the creature lurches forward into the next shadow, covering its existence from all who could see.
Finally it reaches its destination, no cave nor forest but a run down apartment, only due to the dirt could you see the apartment number. The creature emerges finally and pulls itself straight, the features of a middle aged man, heavily unshaven and unkempt are seen before giving a final look and then disappearing into the doorway.
His door is flung open hastily as he quickly enters, discarding his raincoat to the floor. A bag of groceries is dropped to the ground with equal thoughtlessness as he rushes over to a faint green screen, humming gently. A random assortment of junk food is spilled as he feverishly stares at the screen, it would appear he has been sat there for some time.
'Come on you piece of crap, don't give up on me yet', his hands clasped as if in prayer, his eyes haven't blinked since he sat back down.
Suddenly the screen explodes into light, the man falls backwards off his chair almost in disbelief. Picking himself up he looks at the screen, a wrinkled and sore smile etches across his face as he sees the fruit of his labours.
There, across the screen he sees the words 'Federal Bureau of Investigation Abnormal Activities Network'.
'Harry you are a bloody genius! It has only taken you what, two years?' he thinks to himself.
His hand dives into the nearly empty bag of cheese nibbles, dusty fingers run back to his mouth and then the keyboard, to join the other in furious tapping. The more he types and uncovers, the more questions appear;
'I'm never going to find out who they were, maybe they were all right, maybe I did just imagine it', he thinks this to himself as he leans back.
Suddenly a file catches his eye, hidden away, hardly noticeable through the layers of secrets and cover ups. An abbreviated term, something he missed but something that brings back his memory of that night;
Harry jumps up out of his chair and begins pacing his room, his thoughts filled with what that folder contains. Does he really want to open it? What will it answer? Will it tell him who that shadow figure, that…monster is? All he remembers is what the 'man' told him, and those eyes…those piercing glowing blue eyes.
'The O.D.A. does not need you remembering what happened here, what you need to do is forget it, and move on, this is our struggle, not yours'.
He opens the file.
What he sees is not half of what he expected. Files and files of missions, tasks, locations and secrets litter his screen. Whoever the O.D.A. are, they are bigger than he thought, and linked to much more than he even thought possible. What confuses him even more is when he finds out what O.D.A. stands for.
What does Outerworld Defence Agency mean? Outerworld? Does that mean off this world? What does this all mean!
His heart pumps faster as he sees more and more files, suddenly one catches his eye.
'The Bermuda Triangle? These people have had something to do with the Bermuda Triangle? Please tell me this is some kind of sick joke'. He almost closes down the whole folder sensing it is as fake as his apparent 'hallucination'. Then he sees it. A chilling reminder about why he started searching.
A file simply labelled 'Operative Shadow Sword'.
Again he leans back on his chair, cradling his unshaven chin in his hands. Seeing that file lit up on his screen for once did not lead to another question, but to that memory; the memory that has consumed his life.

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
It seems that the old Hybrid is actually Graystone sr. (forgot his first name), the man whose corporation is supposed to build the first Centurions in the spin-off "Caprica". So, more a nod to Caprica than anything else. Some have suggested that his daughter Zoe could be the final Cylon, but in that case, she would need to have taken over an existing Cylon body somehow

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
So the 13 tribes go out, 12 make it to a system with a lot of planets and settle there, the colonies. The 13th really is lost, but over the thousands of years we of course develop to our current level of technology. Then something happens and we are all wipped out. Perhaps it was even the Cylons who wiped us out, whatever the cast, Earth is no longer habitable. So now they have to go find a new planet to settle on.

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
I'm also wondering now if the trajectories of the Five as the survivors of the war on Earth and the trajectories of the Colonials follow the same path, but in literally the opposite directions.
What the Colonials have done is, after being wiped out on the Colonies, leave for Earth. They have assumed that Earth was human. Put another way, they have assumed that they 13th tribe is a people like themselves.
Well, let's suppose that the Five are the survivors of the disaster on Earth who either left in bodies or found a way to transmit themselves through the stars as pure data (which could explain the Virtuals). Maybe they left Earth to find the 12 Colonies, assuming that they would find people like themselves, but not human, Cylon.
This could explain Cylon evolution after the war in a very simple way. If the Five met the Cylons in that period between the end of the First War and the Attack on the Colonies, it could be that they assumed the Cylons were the colonists, that is "people like themselves." They found them to be primitive machines with a hybrid, so they set about giving them the ability to evolve into skinjobs by giving information to the hybrid which in turn instructed the others, with the ultimate intention being to join them by incarnating into five of the resulting models that were developed.
That would fit with the idea on both sides that they need to survive by repopulating their respective races and each side assuming (mistakenly) that the other tribe/tribes would be like themselves.
But the Five were mistaken, insofar as they found people like themselves, Cylons, but they were not the people on the Colonies. The Cylons (the ones they found) having, you know free will and all, decided to use their newfound evolutionary advantage to destroy the Makers. The Five may have escaped, or maybe one of them (the first one out when the time came) took the others and ran off and found the Colonies and then hid there.
So, what the Five wound up doing was, maybe, restarting the ages old feud between the gods and man, or rather Machines and Man, which had its roots all the way back on Kobol. It played out on Earth in either a Cylon Civil War or a Human/Cylon war and it played out again on the Colonies in the First and later Second Cylon Wars. What has happened before will continue to happen again until the two sides decide to work together and live in harmony.

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
It appears Tigh had selected Dee to be his XO. That makes sense since she was Lee's XO on Pegasus.
And then when Tigh was arrested and Adama was a basketcase, who do we see standing next to Lee? Dee
So, was Dee in command of Galactica during that period?
After Adama retakes his command, Dee was the one who oversaw the jump to Earth.
Perhaps this is what will catapult her into that major storyline that we've been told about for the back half. Will she wind up being the new XO if Tigh resigns? Or will that fall to Helo, with Starbuck as the new CAG?

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
Good enough to get me out of forum retirement for a short while - and that says something. Closing off a season (I hate all that 4.0 and 4.5 crap) that has been slow and reflective, it was refreshing to see that the creative team behind this show can still churn out a spectacular finale.
However, that ending had a strange effect on me: it got me completely depressed. So depressed in fact, that I'm not entirely sure I can handle watching the remaining episodes of BSG. The fact RDM chose to throw the imagery of a dead Earth at us, seconds after the greatest display of euphoria in the show's history, made me realize just how bad things can still get in the future. I'm starting to think this show crossed the line from "Gritty" to being plain mean-spirited.
And about the Final Cylon, go back and watch the scene where Baltar comes to talk De'ana out of facing off with the Humans. Watch her expression as he enters the control room.
He is the Final Cylon.

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
Oh, after finally seeing the episode--grade EXCELLENT with a few quibbles. This one really knocked me on my ass with that ending, and I can't say I wasn't expecting it. What I didn't expect was that Galactica doesn't have at least two lines on its intercom system.
Great, great, superb character work all around. Can I praise Michael Hogan any more than anyone else has? That confession was a moment of supreme courage for the character, and he makes me believe how much this crotchety old one eyed man loves Bill Adama. Saul's more tormented by hurting his friend than by being a cylon at this point. That's the kind of character ladened relationships we need--not endless shipping like we had during season three. I bought it when he looked at Lee and asked him what he was waiting for, just do it. I love you, Saul Tigh. I can even forgive you for knocking up that genocidal cylon, Caprica. That's quite a leap for me.
James Callis did excellent work, though his cylon Jesus routine wears thin. Thanks for not murdering me, Laura, indeed. You'd better thank her, you twit. Laura was luminous as always. Olmos did his breakdown scenes justice. It makes sense that Bill was pushed past his limits by Saul. Saul being a cylon not only shocks, it hurts. EJO gave us that hurt and then some. Did anyone else feel like a peeping tom watching Lee assure his father he'd take care of it when Bill was wailing that he couldn't kill the son of a bitch? That was as intimate a father/son moment as you'll ever see. Bamber and Olmos bring it. They are so good. Three years later, one mutiny, and an accusation of cowardice later, I still buy they love each other more than life. Sometimes they hate each other, but the father/son bond never wavers. More rich characterization to lick off a spoon.
It kicked ass to see Lee kicking some ass and be willing to push the button. No, you deal with me. Of course it's not too late. They still have 12 episodes. There's plenty of time for him to gain 100 pounds and be a pussy over Starbuck again. Can you tell I hated season three?
Nice episode. The looks on those faces at the end. Pure despair. Ouch

Re: Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Revelations"
If the Cylons and humans are going to be buddy-buddy now, and if Earth is all nuked and dead, why not just go back to KOBOL? It's a garden of a world, and there are apparently few enough humans and Cylons left to be a population problem.

Shutdown Project Management
Download Now
Date Added: Jan 2009
Format: HTML
Shutdown/Turnaround project scheduling is, in many ways, the epitome of the project scheduling paradigm and, like everything else in the project management industry, it too has evolved in recent history. Shutdown/Turnaround projects are quite different. In every major manufacturing plant, there is some maintenance which can be accomplished while the plant is running and some maintenance which can only be accomplished when the plant is not. For example, it's common for a major pulp and paper or chemical plant or steel mill to shut down completely once or twice per year in order to refurbish those significant elements of the plant which can't be updated otherwise.

Lopez Lomong's Incredible Odyssey
A very good reason to watch the upcoming Olympics.
Running for My Life: One Lost Boy's Journey from the Killing Fields of Sudan to the Olympic Games
By Lopez Lomong with Mark Tabb
(Thomas Nelson, 230 pages, $24.99)
Two years ago on a flight from Denver to Des Moines my wife, Jan, had the good fortune of sitting next to a truly remarkable young man. His name is Lopez Lomong and he was on his way to compete in the Drake Relays, one of the premier track and field competitions held annually at Drake University in Des Moines.
Jan was on her way to spend a few days with our daughter who was in her final year of Veterinary School at Iowa State University. When Jan called me that evening she was still feeling the effects of her two hour conversion with Mr. Lomong. She said, "On the plane today I met the most amazing and inspirational person I've ever met."
The remarkable story she heard from Lopez Lomong is now a book titled Running for My Life: One Lost Boy's Journey from the Killing Fields of Sudan to the Olympic Games. I strongly recommend you read his book and then watch him compete in the London Olympics. He will be running the 5,000 meters for the USA. It will be his second Olympics. At the Beijing Olympics he competed in the 1,500 meter run. His book will have you laughing, crying, and shaking your head in amazement. Lopez Lomong's odyssey from childhood to the present is a tale for the ages.
His story begins in South Sudan. Sudanese rebels burst into the village's Sunday worship services and kidnapped all of the children, both girls and boys. All the children were jammed into a truck: "A green canopy covered the top and sides of the truck bed, so I could not see out. Suddenly the tailgate slammed shut and the truck lurched forward. I did not know it at the time, but my childhood had just ended. I was six years old."
What happened to Lomong has happened to thousands of other children in Africa. They are referred to as "the lost boys." This is not just man's inhumanity to man, it is man's inhumanity to children.
There are many pivotal and improbable moments in Lomong's story. One is seeing a few minutes of the Atlanta Olympics on a television a few miles from his refugee camp. The event and award ceremony he saw was Michael Johnson winning the 400 meter run during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. It was the first time Lomong became aware that running could be a sport. Afterwards Lomong walked back to the refugee camp:
I walked along in the night, staring up at the night sky. The image of Michael Johnson standing on that platform, the letters USA across his chest, weeping openly and without shame, flashed through my head. For a man to react to winning a race in such a manner told me that this had been more than a race. Those letters on his chest and the flag he carried around the track had to be the key. Clearly he was not just running for himself. The gold medal by itself was not enough to bring a real man to tears. No this man, this man with skin like mine, ran for something bigger than himself. That had to be the reason why he wept.… I now had a dream that would change the course of my life: I would be an Olympian.
Moreover, I wanted to run with those same three letters across my chest: USA.
Other than the fact that it came true, his dream was insanely improbable.
Lopez Lomong's story is a lesson for the rest of us in many ways. This book will give you a new and deeper appreciation for the blessings you have. As a reader comment on Amazon put it, "Read this book and try to feel sorry for yourself." If your patriotism needs recharging, this book will do it for you. Seeing the world through Lomong's eyes will change the way you see it through your own. You will not soon forget this book.
It will give you a new appreciation for the importance of family, and not in the narrow sense of the term. Lopez describes numerous times when people around him treated him like family and how he would not have survived and succeeded without them. Lomong now has two sets of loving and devoted parents, an African set and an American set. Lomong has a talent for conveying his feelings and emotions. He is honest and self-effacing. Reading his words will make you feel that you know him well. He has a total lack of bitterness. His optimism and positive attitude are infectious.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympics Lomong was chosen by his teammates to be the flag bearer for the U.S. delegation at the opening ceremonies. Characteristically, he said he didn't deserve it and tried to decline the honor. His teammates told him he best represented what the Olympics are all about. They didn't take no for an answer.
The proceeds for his book go to a charity he has established: 4 South Sudan. The four purposes of the foundation are providing clean water, access to education, better farming tools and methods, and basic medicines for people in South Sudan.
God bless you, Lopez Lopepe Lomong, and God speed to you. I hope I have the privilege of meeting you some day.

We had dinner on a recent weeknight and couldn't get a reservation until 8 p.m. The word is out that this restaurant delivers value. The service is excellent, prompt and attentive. You'll be comfortable with leatherlike settees and plenty of room. Lemon-hued walls are as cheerful as the staff.
Start with a free glass of Beringer Stone Cellars chardonnay or cabernet sauvignon. Yep. Free. A second glass will only cost $4. A whole bottle is only $16. (Ironically the wine is free but soda costs $2.09). You'll also have soup included; we tried the lobster bisque, smooth, creamy but a trifle weak in the flavor department. Salad comes with your dinner on the same plate, in fact. It's a large slice of red, ripe tomato topped with smooth mozzarella and a dollop of lemon aioli. Also included is a tall martini glass of sorbet as dessert.
We ordered a seafood dish and a steak to get an idea of both preparations. We requested some crispy onions just to check them out and our waitress brought them without question and at no extra charge.
The sirloin ($21.99) is cooked perfectly and topped with thin fried shrimp, which would benefit from a little sauce. The classic shrimp scampi ($20.99) comes with plenty of sauce. It is tasty and garlicky, and the shrimp is, thankfully, tailless and nicely cooked. The mashed potatoes are garlicky, too, just as they are billed on the menu. The corn and pepper melange that was the vegetable of the day is good enough, but of course the green peppers overwhelm the other flavors. The onions are crispy and very mild.
We sampled the homemade key lime pie ($3.99) and were impressed with the crust and authentic texture of the filling. Standard coffee ($2.09) accompanies the gratis sorbet surprisingly raspberry, not lemon.
At the Lemon Tree you get what you pay for and then some. Our total bill came to $56.83 plus tip, but we had steak and shrimp and an extra dessert.

I'm being adopted by my foster Mom!
My name is Cotton Ball. I'm a small, active and spirited bunny boy that was in a sad accident. I came to SaveABunny and am now doing great. I'm ready to be adopted by a patient, gentle and caring family.
My previous guardian had left me outside and let a predator maul my little head. She left me in the backyard without any supervision or safe haven. That's why SaveABunny adopts to indoor homes only.
I really want to be a lucky, happy bunny that lives indoors with humans who will protect and treasure me.
From head to tail I promise to be the best house bunny I can be for you!
Please adopt me soon!

text: I guess my question is why you'd want a more modern set-up. If the answer is that the current combination is unreliable or damaged, then a replacement is an easy thing, for well under $200. If you are looking to retain a sort of vintage look to the images, the planatograph is probably as good a lens as you need. While not as sharp as a modern lens overall, it has a soft/sharp quality that works well for postcard sized images and can be very sharp in the center of the image, stopped down. It is also convertable, allowing you to shoot two or three different focal lengths with one lens (although the image quality does change some with only one element.) For a simple and inexpensive change, you might think of putting on one of the many tessar type lenses that are available from large folders and plate cameras. I know a 135mm Zeiss or B&L tessar in good shape certainly shouldn't set you back more than $100 and it has a different look to it than the RR style planatograph. A modern, coated lens will be more expensive, but they're out there in the focal lengths you need in your price range - just keep looking.

This summer I will be travelling from Québec City to Gaspé. After arriving in Québec City, I will be going somewhere for several days, with no possiblity of taking my bicycle with me. When I return to Québec City five or six days later, I will begin my tour. During my absence, I will need a safe place to store my bicycle.
Where do people store their bicycles when away from home? Will a hotel or a B+B keep a bicycle under these conditions? I suppose I could arrange to stay in a hotel both nights. What other options are there?

I treated with this doctor for a back problem for years. He could not diagnose a simple problem, and continued to "treat" me, charge me, and medicate me, rather than give me the obvious solution. When I consulted with a UCLA doctor, he readily agreed with that doctor, and acted as though it was his opinion too. This doctor should be ashamed of himself.

Overview. Back In 2007⋅⋅⋅ In 2007, supported by five of the most prominent textbook publishers in higher education, CourseSmart started out with the simple goal of providing instructors in college and higher education a better textbook evaluation service.
We knew that for instructors, getting textbooks for evaluation was a tedious and time consuming task. They'd contact the publisher directly, then wait days for a book to ship or wait for the publisher sales representative to deliver it in person. And go through the same process again for each book they wanted to review. For publishers, it was just as difficult, spending millions of dollars each year to give away thousands of sample textbooks to faculty across the country, without knowing if an instructor would eventually assign the book for their course.
Millions Of Users, Millions In Savings By 2008, students were telling us they wanted a digital option for textbooks too. And we couldn't stop there. Live Video Learning at eduFire. Study Guides and Strategies. Edutopia. Find information about our now out-of-print magazine for educators.

Re: iPhone 4s keyboard shortcuts disappeared but still work ? in response to Jodeli
Here is my post from another thread:
The same thing happened to me and the Genius bar did a reset yesterday. The problem appear fixed... Until today. Back to the Genius bar this afternoon. I'm not going to let them do another reset this time if that's the only thing they have to offer.
Trial 2:
The Apple store tried all different things without success, so they gave me a new iPhone. They restored everything back via iCloud onto the new phone. Checked the shortcuts--the problem still exists! Blank.
Now I'm supposed to go back for a full hour appt so they can manually install everything onto my phone from my saved laptop. I may not do that and just live without the shortcuts until an update is available.
They said they've never encountered this problem before, but will submit it as a case to Apple.
My suggestion is that everyone having this issue to report it to a Genius Bar and make sure they submit it to Apple. Hopefully then Apple will fix this glitch on the next software update.

Re: iPhone 4s keyboard shortcuts disappeared but still work ? in response to Jodeli
I'm almost 100% certain that this bug is caused when you have entered a shortcut which contains a single quote in it. I managed to half get my shortcuts back by entering a new shortcut with a single quote, but now it's broken again. I don't think there is much more that can be done until apple fixes this.
See my thread for more info:

Re: iPhone 4s keyboard shortcuts disappeared but still work ? in response to Jodeli
Just letting you know that I just updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1 (which was released a few days ago) and all my shortcuts are back. It wasn't mentioned in the list of changes for the update, but it seems to be working now. Hopefully the update will fix it for you too.

Picking up on innuendo and social cues is a central component of engaging in conversation, but people with autism often struggle to determine another person's intentions in a social interaction. New research from Carnegie Mellon University sheds light on the neural mechanisms that are responsible for such social difficulties in autism, and on the workings of these social brain mechanisms in all of us.
According to the study, which is available on the Web site of the journal Social Neuroscience, inefficient pathways for transmitting information between certain brain regions are to blame. The research implicates abnormalities in the brain's inter-regional communication system, which connects the gray matter's computing centers.
"The communication between the frontal and posterior areas of the social brain network is impaired in autism, making it difficult to understand the intentions of others" said the study's senior author, Marcel Just, the D.O. Hebb Professor of Psychology at Carnegie Mellon.
The study is the first to measure the synchronization between the brain areas that make up the Theory of Mind (ToM) network, which is responsible for processing the intentions and thoughts of others. It is the first to provide such concrete evidence of faulty social network connections.
To measure the ToM network's effectiveness, the researchers asked 12 high-functioning autistic adults and 12 control participants to view animations of interacting geometric figures, an example of which can be viewed at www.ccbi.cmu.edu/reprints/reprints.htm.
Participants then were asked to select the word from several choices that best described the interaction. For example, a large triangle would nudge a small triangle to move outside its enclosure, and the correct word choice would be "persuading." The control subjects were consistently better at inferring the intention from the action than the participants with autism were.<

The State of Conference Part V: Equipping Our Workers
Today, our State of the Conference Series continues with the third of the 7 E's-Equipping Our Workers.
The most important assets in our conference, or, any other conference, are the constituents and the workers. Without constituents and workers, there is no conference.
It is true that the President's job is to set a direction and communicate that direction and report on where the conference is going, relative to that direction. But it is the constituents and the workers who are primarily responsible for doing the things that the President communicates and reports.
The next two articles in this series will deal with the things that we are trying to do to equip our workers to provide better service for you. The focus is going to primarily be on the Pastors and the office staff.
There are basically four kinds of workers in the conference: Pastors, Educators, Office Staff and Literature Evangelist. Our discussion will focus on Pastors and the Office Staff – not because the other two are not important – they are.
It is just that my office deals primarily with the hiring and equipping of Pastors and Office Staff. The Office of Education addressing the training of our teachers. For me to talk about the training of our educational personnel would be to assume an expertise that I do not have.
The Publishing Director, or the FHES Director (Family Home Education Service), Elder Java D. Mattison, is responsible for the recruitment of literature evangelist. If you are an old Adventist like me; you remember when we used to call them "colporteurs".
As I have said previously, there are certain things that are a dead giveaway that you are an old Adventist, like me: Knowing what a colporteur is. Remembering when […]

Other than that there's nothing inherently wrong with a monorail, although you might have problems if it doesn't collapse well.

Apple's entry-level phone offers something unique. But is it too old?
Looking for phones? CNET editors' reviews of the best phones include product photos, video, and user reviews.
At $120, Sprint's bare-bones WeGo phone has parental notification, and lets kids call and text a limited number of preset contacts.
While the Sprint Vital is ZTE's best handset to date, the HTC One outshines it by miles for the same price.
With its already spotty camera and call quality, the Sprint Force can't outpace the number of other Sprint handsets that are just as inexpensive.
With the 12-megapixel Sprint Flash, ZTE attempts to break new ground in features, but the Flash is a poor choice both as a phone and as a camera.
Sprint executives say the company has enough wireless spectrum without taking part in next year's much anticipated auction. How wise a move is that?
Or buy a compatible phone for just $50. Either way, you'll score a surprising amount of minutes, text messages and data. So what's the catch?
The wireless carrier is looking to slash expenses to make sure its business is sustainable for the long term. It says some jobs will probably be affected.
Free with a new contract, this flip phone from Samsung is only about making calls.
Sprint and T-Mobile each announce what look like incredibly cheap pricing for the new iPhone 6S and 6S Plus. What's the catch?

I would also like to see a return to the older "everyone moves independently" way of doing things, with proper stars, et cetera.
I'd also like the mini-games to return to more "Mario" mechanics, with running jumping, karting, tennis..ing.. being the order of things. The stuff that you had to do in other Mario games I suppose.
That said.. it's pre-ordered, so clearly I can't listen to myself.

Rear License Plate Light 1967-1970 is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Londont5 from Modification required. The mounting holes to not line up with the holes in the bumper but it is easy to bend one of the tabs. It does not sit completely flush but it can't be seen & is better than drilling a new hole in the bumper.

Product Questions
What are the modifications required to fit a 1969 model? Also do I need to order light bulbs separately? Thanks.
Got mine a month ago. It looks like the hole spacing of the bracket is about an inch wider than the holes in my repop bumper on my '69 FB. Going to have to drill another hole in the bumper. And the bulb is included. I looked at the light on Kentucky Mustang and it appears to be exactly the same as this one but they show it as '71 through '73. Dallas Mustang has this exact one listed for '67-'68 and a different one for '65-'66. Good luck.

Mark Teixeira was the latest victim, albeit a happy one, of a whipped cream pie from A.J. Burnett after a walkoff home run.
- Filed Under
NEW YORK - When Derek Jeter was asked for his thoughts on the Los Angeles Angels, the Yankees' shortstop just shrugged. "You could sit here all day and talk about the things they do," he said as he ticked off the qualities: Hitting, pitching, running, fielding, managing.
"Where else can I go?" he said. "They've (also) got that monkey."
Truth is, for as much as the Yankees and Red Sox may be the biggest rivalry in sports, it is the Angels - and that Rally Monkey - that have been the Yankees' toughest opponent in recent years. The Angels were the only team to have a winning record against the Yankees during the Joe Torre era, and they knocked the Yankees out of the playoffs in the division series in 2002 and 2005. After the Angels won seven of 10 games between the teams a year ago, the Yankees managed a split of the 10 this season.
Now, as they get set for the ALCS that begins Friday in the Bronx, the questions about whether the Angels have some kind of hex over the Yankees are running rampant. Even Mark Teixeira, who played the final two months of last season with the Angels, admitted that there is an incredible confidence in the Angels' clubhouse when it comes to the Yankees.
"I think maybe they just thought they had the Yankees' number," Teixeira said Wednesday.
You can understand why. While some of the names have changed on the Angels over the years - no more Francisco Rodriguez or Garret Anderson - the philosophy of manager Mike Scioscia's teams has stayed constant ... and constantly effective against the Yankees.
What is that style? A.J. Burnett called it an "action" approach, one where base runners are "always playing havoc" with the pitcher and catcher. The Angels sacrifice; take extra bases; steal; hit-and-run; stay in motion. They scored the second-most runs in the AL (behind the Yankees) this season, and did it despite hitting 71 fewer homers. Their 148 stolen bases was third-most in the league.
Chone Figgins is the proverbial pest. Vladimir Guerrero can still hit any pitch out. Bobby Abreu, the former Yankee, has added a touch of patience to the lineup. And the bullpen, even with K-Rod gone and Scot Shields injured, is still a weapon. Brian Fuentes had the most saves in the AL this season, and he's set up by a cast that includes Kevin Jepsen and Darren Oliver, both of whom were effective in the division series. Even more, the Angels do it all intelligently. While the Yankees were clearly the better team in the division series, they also benefited from some terrible mental mistakes that the Twins made, including costly base-running errors in back-to-back games. With the Angels, the Yankees can't count on their opponents doing much to help them.
"As long as I can remember when we've played Anaheim," Jeter said, "they don't beat themselves."
The Yankees can look to some recent success against the Angels for motivation. They won two of three at Angel Stadium in September, and pitching coach Dave Eiland said the pre-series meetings this week will resemble the ones the pitching staff had before that series. Much of it is just a review of fundamentals, things like quickening the delivery to the plate to give the catcher as much time as possible to throw out would-be base stealers. "We just did it not that long ago and we did it well," Eiland said. "We'll talk about it all again, but when push comes to shove, the focus has to be on making your pitch to the hitter."
Burnett stressed the same concept, saying that "it's not funny, but it's kind of funny because I have runners on base all the time since I have a lot of walks. You do what you can to help the catchers, but the biggest thing we can do as pitchers is keep the guys off base in the first place."
Inevitably, though, runners will get on, and the Yankees' catchers are preparing. After batting practice concluded Wednesday, Jose Molina - who figures to catch Burnett in Game 2 - went behind the plate and practiced throws to second and third, honing his quick release.
"You've got to pay close attention to what they do," Jorge Posada said. "They are always doing something."
At the very least, the Yankees know what to expect. The Angels have been in their way for years, it seems, and this time, this team seems as ready as any to get a different October result.
The Red Sox will always be the Yankees' biggest rival. Always. This is something different. Starting Friday, the Yankees will get the chance to knock off their most formidable nemesis.
