Japanese Sound-Symbolism Facilitates Word Learning in English-Speaking Children

Sound-symbolism is the nonarbitrary link between the sound and meaning of a word. Japanese-speaking children performed better in a verb generalization task when they were taught novel sound-symbolic verbs, created based on existing Japanese sound-symbolic words, than novel nonsound-symbolic verbs (Imai, Kita, Nagumo, & Okada, 2008). A question remained as to whether the Japanese children had picked up regularities in the Japanese sound-symbolic lexicon or were sensitive to universal sound-symbolism. The present study aimed to provide support for the latter. In a verb generalization task, English-speaking 3-year-olds were taught novel sound-symbolic verbs, created based on Japanese sound-symbolism, or novel nonsound-symbolic verbs. English-speaking children performed better with the sound-symbolic verbs, just like Japanese-speaking children. We concluded that children are sensitive to universal sound-symbolism and can utilize it in word learning and generalization, regardless of their native language.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana's Reggie Miller became the 13th
player in NBA history to score 25,000 points Wednesday night in the
Pacers 100-93 victory over San Antonio.
Miller, who is retiring after the season, entered the game
against San Antonio needing eight points to join the exclusive
club. It didn't take him long.
He scored six points in the first 5:13, then reached the
milestone, appropriately, by making two free throws with 2:08 left
in the first quarter. When the achievement was announced, fans
began chanting "Reg-gie, Reg-gie."
Miller, 39, finished with a game-high 21 points and now has
25,013 for his career. Jerry West is 12th on the all-time scoring
list with 25,192.
In 18 seasons with Indiana, Miller is the NBA's all-time leader
in 3-pointers (2,533) and is one of six players to log more than
47,000 minutes. He and Utah's John Stockton are the only players to record 47,000 minutes with one team.

Phoenix Suns
Suns' Lindsey Hunter pleased with growth on defense
In their last four losses, the Phoenix Suns had allowed their opponents to average 110 points per game — a difficult total to overcome for a team that is challenged to score points as well.
Interim head coach Lindsey Hunter talked about establishing a defensive mentality for the team when he took over for Alvin Gentry last month, and Tuesday night, it looked like the Suns had done just that.
Phoenix clamped down on the Memphis Grizzlies, especially in the second half, during a 96-90 win at FedEx Forum Tuesday night. The Suns held Memphis to just 44% shooting from the field and limited them to 38 points after halftime in only their fifth road win of the season.
"It's just more of what we're trying to do and become, it's solidifying our in-the-paint defense stopping guys from getting layups and challenging jump shots," Hunter told Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 620 Wednesday. "It's going to take us some time to get there, but when we practice I think we can reinforce a lot of things we're trying to incorporate.
"We solidified a lot of it — not to the point where it's instinctive but I think awareness is the beginning of instinctively doing things and we've created the awareness that this is how we're going to play and this how we want to play. Defensively, we were much more aware (Tuesday) night than we were."
The Suns will try to continue their defensive improvement on the road Wednesday night against the New Orleans Hornets.

Worth the money if you're a serious gardener,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
If you're just starting off with gardening you don't need to spend the money on these. You'll do fine with a $5 pair of shears from Home Depot, and that way if you end up not doing much pruning you haven't wasted any money. However, if you're a serious gardener who does a lot of pruning you'll want a serious set of shears and these are the best. The action is smooth and tight and the blade is fantastic. I bought the F9 because I'm left-handed, but if you're like most lefties and you're already used to using regular right-handed shears, you may not see any big advantage to these.

Wonderful combination of flavors, my whole family loved this dish. However, my butternut squash cubes did not cook in 6 minutes, and I cut them a bit smaller than dice size. Could be because I had a larger squash and a lot of squash. I just kept adding time and kept checking it. I didn't want it to be too soft since I knew the continued cooking and stirring after I added the rice would continue to break it down. I also added more Parmesan cheese. Several family members had seconds, and were very complimentary about this dish. Will definitely make it again!
This is one of our favorite recipes. If I don't have hazelnuts around, I substitute chopped almonds. I also add chopped portobello mushrooms, sauteeing them just before I add the rice. Wonderful!
Fabulous. We used walnuts instead of hazelnuts. Tasted great but this took about an hour to prep and cook. Next time, I'll make sure to have everything ready before we start cooking.
Had no sage or hazelnuts so substituted with thyme and pine nuts which seemed to work well (although obviously original recipe may be better!) Very tasty and no cream, which is what I wanted. Cheers for getting me back into risottos.
Saw this being reviewed for PAC Spring 2008 and just had to give it a try as I love both risotto and squash!! Having never made risotto before I found it incredibly easy (just time consuming is all...but very easy). Super creamy texture with the rice part and adding crunch and textural change with the nuts and squash. Quite nice! I was looking for some stronger flavor though which is only reason I rated a 4 and not a 5...flavor was a bit mild. But this has deffinately turned me on to trying risotto again!!
Excellent risotto! Next time I'd love to try it with some added chopped bacon or ham. Thanks ElmerDog! Made for PAC Spring 2008.
I love risotto and I love butternut, what a combination! A good risotto with well-balanced flavours, plenty of taste without being overwhelming, equally good the next day! I might add a splash of lemon juice next time, but excellent as is. Thanks for a great recipe, made for PAC Spring 2008

US, Canadian Envoys Storm Out of IAEA After Iran Criticizes Israel
Reportedly Accused Israel of 'Genocide' During Closed-Door Meeting
After railing against Iran's "commitment to deception and defiance" of US demands, newly appointed US Ambassador to the IAEA Joseph Macmanus stormed out of the meeting in anger, along with Canadian and Australian counterparts, during Iranian envoy Ali Soltanieh's comments.
The record of the closed-door meeting was not made public, but Soltanieh reported referred to an Israeli policy of "genocide" during his comments, at which time the envoys got up and left in unison.
In comments after the meeting, Soltanieh reiterated Iran's opposition to IAEA demands for access to military sites without any relation to their nuclear program, and complained that the bureaucrats in Vienna have been trying to micromanage the IAEA's operations in Iran, instead of letting the inspectors and negotiators on the ground actually have the authority to make deals.
Last week Iran engaged in talks with the P5+1, including the United States, on their nuclear program. Everyone involved, excluding the United States, has agreed considerable progress was made in those talks, while the US has made daily comments condemning Iran since the meeting ended.

The gobbly#$%$ issued by the company today isn't worth the effort it took to produce it. We are to believe the company absorbed more than 4 million shares from major sellers without benefitting financially from it. How about some simple English to explain what happened to cause the stock to plummet suddenly.
The company isn't absorbing anything. The 4 million shares are held by private equity firms right now, meaning the shares already exist and are owned by someone. After the secondary offering the shares will still exist, and still be owned by someone.
4 million shares is roughly 10% of all shares, which is significant. These shares were previously NOT being traded, but they will be now. This has all sorts of implications, but it is not a negative for the company itself. If you liked the stock at 45, you should like it at 42, or 40, or wherever. The drop is frustrating, but it is not necessarily permanent.

From an announcement:

Legal Scholarship Conference 2014
Hosted by the University of Baltimore School of Law

President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society and Beyond:
The Historical and Contemporary Implications of Progressive Action and Human Fulfillment
Honoring and Critiquing the 50th Anniversary of Johnson's Vision
In May 1964, President Lyndon Baines Johnson unveiled his revolutionary plans for the Great Society. As he explained it, Americans "have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the Great Society. . . . The Great Society rests on abundance and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice."
According to Doris Kearns Goodwin, who wrote Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream, Johnson's Great Society would be based on "progressive action" and the "possibilities for human fulfillment." This action and fulfillment meant that regaining control of our society required us to end policies that threatened and degraded humanity.
Johnson's Great Society reforms, included the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Medicare, Medicaid, Equal Opportunity Act, Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Social Security expansion, the Earned Income Tax Credit, the Higher Education Act, Head Start, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, and the Open Housing Act of 1968. These laws extended and expanded the Bill of Rights and continued and expanded the programs initiated in Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930s and Truman's Fair Deal in the late 1940s and early 1050s. As a result of LBJ's programs, America's official poverty rate declined throughout the 1960s, reaching a low of 11.2 percent in 1974, down from 19 percent in 1964, and most recently settling at 15.1 percent in 2010. According to Dylan Matthews, who wrote Poverty in the 50 Years Since 'The Other America,' in Five Charts, Johnson's Great Society programs, which included the War on Poverty, "made a real and lasting difference." Moreover, according to Demos, an estimated 40 million Americans avoided official poverty due to such programs as food stamps and Medicaid.
Unfortunately, what is also true is that the Vietnam War, which Johnson escalated and only at the end of his administration moved to end, crippled his domestic economic policies and undermined his goals for true racial equality. Despite the War on Poverty and dramatic changes in Civil Rights, racially concentrated poverty remains with us. Since the Johnson years, America has weathered the recessions of the 1980s and early 1990s, the late '90s dot com bubble, our current recession, the national security encroachment on civil liberties, the rise and fall of the Occupy Movement, the waning of the Arab Spring, and two middle east wars since 9-11.
It is clear that Johnson's Great Society programs have saved millions of Americans from the depth of official poverty. It also true that Johnson's vision, to which he was truly committed, staggered and failed when the civil rights movement dovetailed with political marginalization, economic inequality, pervasive racial discrimination, and imperialist policies. The Moynihan Report, the Watts Riots and urban unrests, and the emotional and financial suck of Vietnam prevented Johnson from deeply redressing America's lingering poverty.
At MAPOC 2014, we intend to explore the furthest implications of President Johnson's domestic and foreign policies, especially the impact of these policies on progressive action and human fulfillment, as we collectively explore and analyze the contemporary implications of Johnson's Great Society. From these implications, the conference planning committee is seeking papers and panel proposals on the following substantive but not exhaustive subjects:
-- A Hand Up: The Meaningful Tension Between Formal Equality and Substantive Outcomes under the Civil Rights Act of 1964
-- Beyond Legislative Bogs and Dangerous Political Animals: President Obama's Legislative Agenda and the Limits of Second-Term Progressivism
-- Endangered Citizens?: Rights and Remedies after State v. Zimmerman
-- Equality, Choice, and Happiness: the Rise and Fall of DOMA
-- Guns or Butter: Social Welfare Programs, Modern Problems of Central Banks, Debt Slavery, and Foreign Policies
-- Medicare, Healthcare, and Welfare: the Poor, the Elderly, and the Needy
-- Moynihan and the Contemporary (In)Stability of the Black Family
-- Racial (Dis)Harmony Then and Today
-- Voting Rights: Shelby County v. Holder and the Promise of One Citizen, One Vote
Paper submissions must include a working title, bios, abstract, and contact information.
Panel proposals must also include the foregoing information for each of the panel's participants, and the organizer's contact information, all of which must be submitted together only by the organizer.
Submit Papers and Panel Proposals by September 30, 2013 to: Reginald Leamon Robinson, Howard University, Conference Chair and Founder, MAPOC 2014: firstname.lastname@example.com.

What The Best Law Teachers Do: Conference June 2014
The Institute for Law Teaching and Learning's Summer Conference hosted by Northwestern University School of Law, "What the Best Law Teachers Do," will be held June 25 - 27, 2014, in Chicago.
The conference flows from the book What the Best Law Teachers Do , published by Harvard University Press, that introduces readers to twenty-six professors from law schools across the United States, featuring close-to-the ground accounts of exceptional educators in action. The Conference will feature interaction with these instructors and learning more about their passion and creativity in the classroom and beyond.
Confirmed presenters at this conference include Rory Bahadur (Washburn University School of Law), Cary Bricker (University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law), Roberto Corrada (University of Denver, Sturm College of Law), Meredith Duncan (University of Houston Law Center), Paula Franzese (Seton Hall University School of Law), Heather Gerken (Yale Law School), Nancy Knauer (Temple University, James E. Beasely School of Law), Andrew Leipold (University of Illinois College of Law), Julie Nice (University of San Francisco School of Law), Ruthann Robson (CUNY School of Law), Tina Stark (retired, formerly Boston University School of Law), and Andy Taslitz (American University Washington College of Law).
They teach a wide variety of courses across the curriculum including constitutional law.
The co-authors of What the Best Law Teachers Do, Sophie Sparrow, Gerry Hess, and Michael Hunter Schwartz, will provide a framework for the presentations and a global sense of the takeaway lessons from their study.

"Racial Entitlement": Professor Scalia, then and now
Justice Antonin Scalia's remark during the oral arguments in Shelby County v. Holder last week characterizing the preclearance provision of the Voting Rights Act as a "racial entitlement" has garnered much attention, including "gasps" in the Supreme Court chambers itself.
Of course, the ability of Scalia's comments to provoke is not new: his statements in last year's oral arguments in Arizona v. United States regarding the constitutionality of SB1070 drew particular attention.
In the Shelby argument, Scalia described the Voting Rights Act provision and its reenactments as
a phenomenon that is called perpetuation of racial entitlement. It's been written about. Whenever a society adopts racial entitlements, it is very difficult to get out of them through the normal political processes.
To what writings does Justice Scalia refer? ConLawProf Chad Flanders, in a news commentary that is itself garnering attention, suggests that Justice Scalia might be referencing Professor Scalia's own writings. Flanders points to Scalia's article, The Disease as Cure: "In Order to Get Beyond Racism, We Must First Take Account of Race," 1979 Wash. U. L. Rev. 147, available here.
Scalia's writing is not an article but rather published as a "Commentary" and obviously taken from his remarks on a panel at a Symposium entitled "The Quest for Equality." Scalia describes himself as the "anti-hero" of the panel: the other commentator was Herma Hill Kay and the main paper was by Harry T. Edwards. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg delivered the main paper on the next panel.) His subtitle is derived from Justice Blackmun's dissenting and concurring opinion in Regents of University of California v. Bakke, 438 U.S. 265, 407 (1978).
Scalia indeed does use the term "racial entitlement" in his remarks:
The affirmative action system now in place will produce the latter result because it is based upon concepts of racial indebtedness and racial entitlement rather than individual worth and individual need; that is to say, because it is racist.
But of course, his rejection of "racial indebtedness" was clear in his 1995 concurring opinion in Adarand Constructors, Inc. v. Pena, 515 U.S. 200, in which the Court held an affirmative action policy unconstitutional. Scalia wrote then:

ConLaw at AALS: Looking Towards Fisher
If you're at AALS, don't miss today's double panel on affirmative action in education, starting at 2pm:
In 1973, the Court held in Rodriguez that there was no fundamental right to education. Plaintiffs alleged that substantial disparities in educational opportunity violated the Constitution. The Court found the Texas elementary and secondary school finance system constitutional because it was rationally related to advancing local control of education; the Court hesitated to second guess the Texas legislature in light of federalism principles and concerns about judicial competency to deal with school finance systems.
The first panel will focus on the legacy of Rodriguez and how the law can address educational disparities in elementary and secondary education. Panelists also will discuss the effect of limits on use of race-conscious programs under the 2007 Parents Involved decision, and will consider the implications of the grant of review in Fisher.In 1978, a deeply fractured Court decided Bakke. Only one paragraph of Justice Powell's pivotal opinion was joined by four other justices; it held that a "properly devised admissions program" that took race into account could be constitutional. He envisioned a flexible, individualized program that would provide the educational benefits of a diverse class. In 2003, the Court in Grutter held that diversity could be a compelling interest; the Court upheld Michigan Law School's program, even as it held (in Gratz) that Michigan's more mechanical undergraduate affirmative action program violated equal protectio
The second panel will consider the legacy of Bakke and discuss how the Court should decide Fisher. Is racial diversity a compelling interest? What is the role of empirical evidence? What do the empirical studies tell us about the benefits or harms of affirmative action? Diversity may provide better learning outcomes for all students (or for certain students), better preparation of students for a diverse world, and better social results due to formation of a diverse group of leaders. Which potential benefits "count"? How can a program be narrowly tailored to advance the interest in educational diversity?

CFP: Civil Gideon
The deadline is imminent - - November 15 at 11.59 pm - - - to submit proposals and papers for the University of District of Columbia School of Law's March Symposium
"Expanding the Civil Right to Counsel: 50 Years After Gideon."
The University of the District of Columbia David A. Clarke School of Law seeks submissions for its 2013 Law Review Symposium on the topic of expanding the civil right to counsel. This symposium seeks to explore the legal and societal implications of creating a civil right to counsel. Submissions may also address the approaches to providing counsel to civil litigants that have been adopted in U.S. and international jurisdictions, and the impact on litigation outcomes in those jurisdictions.
Symposium submissions may examine the relative merits of creating a right to counsel in civil cases legislatively, through court rules, or pursuant to state constitutions. Participants in the symposium will address the challenges to creation and implementation of a civil right to counsel through these mechanisms, as well as creation of a civil right to counsel through the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. The Law Review also seeks articles discussing the history of Lassiter v. Dept. of Social Services and the prospects for a civil right to counsel under the U.S. Constitution. Panels may address discrete issues ranging from creation and implementation challenges to jurisdictional comparisons to constitutional construction of the right to counsel.
More information and submission details here.

CFP: Corporations and Children's Rights
ConLawProfs doing work on privatization might be interested in this CFP for a Vulnerability and Feminism Legal Theory Workshop.
From the organizers:
This workshop considers the growing trend in some countries to subordinate and often sacrifice children's interests (indeed all of our interests) to corporate interests claimed in the name of efficiency. This trend is represented by the proliferation of for-profit schools, hospitals, and prisons, and in corporate rights exemplified by the reach of commercial advertising into public schools -- from buses to corridors to cafeterias. Particularly in the U.S., the corporation reigns supreme. Politicians and policy makers increasingly accept markets as adequate mechanisms to allocate health, education, public safety, criminal justice, environmental protection, recreation, procreation, and other social goods, and they tend to consider "business" models as the superior means to do so. Corporate legal personhood protects as "speech" the allocation of corporate wealth to political and social causes that aggressively work against protective regulations of corporate activities. Advertising and social media driven by corporate interests create consumer demand for unhealthy and unnecessary products and use the mantra of parental "choice" as a subterfuge for gross profit-seeking. Corporate practices and "values" are adopted as relevant and beneficial to assessing the worth and success of public services, such as education and health care. What is the balance struck in other countries? Is it possible within a liberal legal order to challenge the assumptions that underlie privatization and the "corporatization" of society? Is it impossible to reorient and "humanize" the corporation by holding it legally responsible beyond shareholders and the market, using law to encourage responsiveness to the interests of children and other human beings?
The deadline for submissions is July 25, 2012. More info, including submission details, here.

CFP: AALS ConLaw Section
Section on Constitutional Law
Call for Papers for January 2013 AALS Annual Meeting Program:
"Forty Years after Rodriguez, 35 Years after Bakke:
Education, Equality and Fundamental Rights"
The Section on Constitutional Law and the Section on Education Law will be holding a joint program at the January 2013 AALS annual meeting. The program topic is "Forty Years after Rodriguez, 35 Years after Bakke: Education, Equality and Fundamental Rights." The program will be held on Friday, January 4, from 2:00-5:00pm.
The panel organized by the Education Law Section will emphasize school financing, forty years after the Supreme Court held in Rodriguez that there is no fundamental right to education under the U.S. Constitution and that public school funding disparities are not subject to close scrutiny.
The Section on Constitutional Law panel will deal primarily with the constitutionality of racial affirmative action in higher education admissions. Among other matters, it will consider the implications of the Court's grant of review in Fisher v. University of Texas, involving an undergraduate affirmative-action admissions program.
The Section on Constitutional Law invites submission of abstracts (of no more than five pages) for purposes of choosing one speaker for this panel. The speaker who is chosen will be expected to produce a paper that can be posted on the AALS web site prior to the annual meeting and that will be published in the Loyola Law Review.
Deadline Date for Submission: August 1, 2012
For more information and submission of abstracts, contact Professor Mark S. Scarberry, Pepperdine University School of Law, mark.scarberry AT pepperdine.edu.

|Reviews for Powerpuff Girls: PSHAW!
| Runecutter chapter 15 . 12/12/2015
Nope, absolutely not that...
but then i had already weird thoughts about how the flesh review mags might be what makes chemical X so powerful and he had a way to collect that stuff from young men when they left that phase of their lives behind because they grew up... or their girlfriends, aspiring to become wifes, made them give it up :D and it would turn out to be harmless like all the imagination about perfect women flowing into the process of making PPG and whatnot...
After all you can't claim the girls are all innocent and clean... beating up bad guys until the stuffing comes out does not strike me as the most girlish thing to do in the world and it would not leave you sweet and cute if you do it in an almost professional way day after day ;)
| oddhack chapter 15 . 11/25/2015
Did chapter 16 get pulled? I saw an an email announcement of it on 11/20 but doesn't seem to be there now.

... I actually thought you were making a reference to that scene in Dexter where the boy genius was checking out the centerfold of a tools magazine.
But yours was better, by far.
| Quathis chapter 14 . 11/19/2015
Yes, Jack, run. Use it as an endurance exercise for the girls. Until next time.
| VFR6 chapter 15 . 11/19/2015
The key to any super secret super weapon program, is that there are always back up. Looked at Death Star, the Emperor made it prudent to have a back up in Death Star 2. What the girls didn't see was the secret lever beneath the white boxes. That opens up to the real deal. A matchbox hammer space where all Evil Sexy stuff was stored.
| VFR6 chapter 14 . 11/19/2015
No, Jack dont run, you ran and she will catch you. The thrill is in the hunt, if you remember. This is no mere Cougar, those who hunted young men, no this is Elder Cougar, all prey must be in equal to her. Jack, you need to find another time portal.
| Sage of Wind Dragons chapter 14 . 11/19/2015
oh dear. Robin... I am waiting for the day when Uncle Scooby and them show up! it be great.
and ridiculious.
Scooby Do is in the same universe as the powerpuff girls, I mean I know there more into faux horror but... still.
and yes trauma!

In a service-oriented grid environment, how to discover the desired service easily and well is a prime concern since the service providers are selfish and owned by different organization. In this paper, we suggest a reputation based mechanism to implement service selection in the service-oriented grid. The working model and functionality offered by the proposed reputation service are discussed. We design a service contexts related reputation function and show how the reputation values can be calculated and updated. Finally we conduct an evaluation of our solution, which shows satisfying enough results in an experiment grid.

How many on this board have been called by NCT this past week? I have 3 phone calls, 2 emails, and a couple of snail mail letters urging me to vote as soon as possible and especially to vote for the 3 recommended issues on the ballot. In 30 years of investing in the stock market I have never had this much attention to vote my proxy. I'm not sure if there is anything to be drawn from this type activity, it's just never happened to me before.
Meaningless - don't read into it.
I've had a few calls from AGNC and another company I own so it's not too unusual. Had them in the past too. They usually want me to vote due to my sizable holdings :~)
I wondered about that, sounds like we are in the same boat. My first buy was 1000 shares in 2006 and then started averaging down around $10 all the way to 50 cents. Then started averaging up till about $4, as you might imagine I have a lot of shares. This is my largest holding in terms of shares. So you may be right about why they are calling. Hopefully it will be my largest holding in terms of value in the next couple of months.
Timely, just got the call from NCT proxy rep co. to vote my shares. Already voted some but these were from other accounts.

Nic, South Africa. 26 September 2012
The only media player you need.
Rean, South Africa. 16 May 2012
Loses SMB shares on a regular basis, and the WiFi streaming is beyond slow (even on small SD video files).
Kirsten, South Africa. 31 May 2012
Great little box, haven't had a problem with in and have had it 3 months.
Rich, South Africa. 29 June 2012
Amazing little player, loses signal occasionally though on streamed radio stations through wi-fi, has to reset manually.
Otherwise best small player i've come across
Hedley, South Africa. 22 October 2012
It is small, unobtrusive and a cheap way to stream content to your second TV. If you use it as a primary media centre you will be disappointed.
Pros: great remote control, wide format support, wifi below R1000.
Cons: sluggish UI, can mount underneath a TV that is already mounted on a wall.
Kevin, South Africa. 13 March 2013
Bought this player few months back.
Awesome. Value for money. Played everything I could throw at it. Looks amazing. Bit slow on menu browsing but its good trade-off for being able to play just about any video file
Philip, South Africa. 28 December 2012
Superb media player. Small, efficient, affordable and it handles all the latest media formats with ease.
Rudi, South Africa. 26 March 2013
After evaluating allot of options for my home network I've found that this little gadget does everything.
Craig, South Africa. 29 April 2013
I bought this product after reading many positive reviews. Unfortunately, it is probably the only media player on the market without volume control. One would assume that the arrow buttons would allow volume control during playback, but they do not - it seems that adjusting the subtitle position is more important to WD than volume. There are numerous complaints on the Western Digital forums about this issue, but no firmware fix.
Jonathan, South Africa. 2 July 2013
Bought to be used in connection with the WD live HDD. Connects fast and plays most formats. Gets a tad slow on youtube and sometimes takes awhile to load if you're skipping ahead. Worth it for the price.
Bradley, South Africa. 4 August 2013
awesome media player.
Patrick, South Africa. 9 November 2013
This is undoubtedly the best Streaming Media Player in my house, It was so easy (after firm ware updates) to get working
My only prob;lem is the home network needs a bit of attention from me as I am running Windows 7 and Vista and this is causing the slightest glitches
Wesley, South Africa. 3 February 2014
Awesome device - it's small, light, links to our home wifi and plays HD movies perfectly!
Ruan, South Africa. 12 February 2014
Extremely slow and sluggish. Takes about 1min to switch on and 15-30mins to compile library on an external hard drive. Supports most formats as stated on the box, except for some mkv's. It loses the external hard drive when the box is switched off and I disconnect the HDD and connect it again. I have to start the box, unplug the HDD and replug it then it has to connect to the USB device which takes a while and then rebuild the media library.
Apps are just as slow and sluggish.
Andrei, South Africa. 9 April 2014
If you want a device that can read pretty much any media type - this is the one. I've yet to find a file type that WD TV Live couldn't play. There're a few kinks to this however and hence the 4 stars - compiling media library took almost 3 days for my network attached 2Tb drive, which is way too long for my liking. Switching the device on after it's being switched off doesn't always work from the remote - you have to resort to unplugging the power cable and plugging it back in. The interface itself is very intuitive and works well, however going from item to item takes a few seconds at a time - a little better response would be welcome. WD TV Remote for Android works very well with the device, however for the life of me I can't figure out how to get a numeric keypad up when I want to skip to a specific time in a movie or show.
William, South Africa. 15 April 2014
Quick and easy setup.
Suggest not using the media library as I just use folder view which makes more sense to me.
Links to my WDTV Live Hub easily and accesses 4TB NAS in seconds.
Full HD Bluray plays best over cable, but wireless ok for most peoples needs.
Good product / Good value for money.
Adam, South Africa. 12 May 2014
This is a great media player. I still have a box CRT TV and was limited to a player with AV outputs. The WD players were my only option. I first bought the WD TV Play and had issues with certain MP4's as well as the fact that it doesn't play MKV with DTS audio which is becoming more prevalent.The WD TV Live plays pretty much anything you can throw at it. There is some reports that it's GUI is slow but I have not experienced this. You should rather buy this player than the WD TV Play as it plays all formats and has more online apps. The one issue I have is that I cannot get the Android remote to work which helps with text input when searching Netflix and other apps. 2 USB ports is a bonus if you have a hard drive with media on as well as a Flash disk.
Michael, South Africa. 15 May 2014
User friendly interface, and great build quality.
David, South Africa. 26 May 2014
Great device, upgraded from the 2010 edition of this device. The content info feature is great and another useful feature is the lip-sync adjustment feature - great for when the audio is out of sync.
Nigel, South Africa. 30 May 2014
Nice and compact. Very easy to set up and use. Seems to play all the modern formats. Wireless link makes firmware updates very easy.I made a good choice.
David, South Africa. 8 June 2014
Product works as expected. No major problems with installation, and there is no need for a hard drive as you can plug your own into the device. It is small, compact and power consumption is excellent. Only problems were with getting device to be recognised on my home network which is quite secure. Would have been nice if the device had a "Information" windows where MAC addresses are displayed. Secondly device's firmware was quite out of date, so downloading and upgrading took 45 minutes. But overall well worth the money.
Avinash, South Africa. 11 June 2014
I love this media player. It is awesome. Plays every format. Supports subtitles, etc. Is High Definition. What more do you need.
Ben, South Africa. 12 June 2014
A compact media-center device that is plug and play ready. Easy setup for WiFi and your Network share devices. This little box is packed with Good Media management features,good price range, quick learning curve, once connected to the Internet, it will find and update this little box with the latest firmware update and allows finding and adding missing movie covers, categorizing, moving, deleting and renaming your media files straight from your couch and is ideal for those scared of technology and those who are not computer literate. Excellent BUY and highly recommended.
Adam, South Africa. 20 June 2014
Great product - Streams everything I have thrown at it from a network share, even over wifi.
Problems automatically picking up the information from TV shows, and some movies, although performing a manual search always finds the info.
Would be great if there was a separate TV tab on the home screen, instead of the current situation where all movies and TV shows are lumped into the Videos tab (Although you can filter to only show TV shows).
Radio streaming works great. The other streaming TV services work ok, although content is pretty rubbish. As a dedicated box to watch your own collection of TV shows and movies on, it does its job very well.
Spiros, South Africa. 24 June 2014
The WD TV Live is the king of local media. It reads just about everything.
The trade-off unfortunately is that you're purchasing a streaming device that's extremely buggy. For example one of the Youtube apps causes the system to re-boot itself. As well you'll find other instances where the device randomly crashes. The user interface response is also on the laggy side. The apps also load slowly. Netflix for example take it's sweet time to load up.
If you can live with these issues then the WD TV Live should suit you fine.
To summarize:
Hard power recycles are par for the course with the WD TV Live. It's the price you have to pay for the unparalleled handling of local/LAN-based content.
Other than that a device like the Roku 3 blows this thing out of the water in terms of overall stability, ultra responsive interface and channel selection.
Nathaniel, South Africa. 26 June 2014
While i like the fact that the device supports many different file types and codecs i'm not to happy with its performance. The User interface is sluggish and sometimes i'm not even sure if the WDTVLive console received the command from the remote.
I have been a fan of the WD TV Live for a while and have owned the V1 and V2 models which worked much better than this model, the good thing is that i can use the other remotes on this model too which saves me having to rush buy another remote if ever i break or loose the one that comes with this model.
I currently use it along side a 3TB WD MyBook which works really well together.
TIP: if you are using an external Hard drive make sure to only place media files on the hard drive, the unit struggles to read and compile the media library if you have documents/games/executable files on the same drive. It displays a message "Compiling media library" and if you have anything else on the drive besides media files it will continue to do this for hours.
Other than the sluggish UI and response its a good model and plays all file types i have, i'm relatively happy with it.
Jason, South Africa. 26 June 2014
Excellent media player and not too bad on the streaming side of things
Phillip, South Africa. 18 July 2014
I use it with my Marantz surround sound amp and quality is great (source file dependent of course). The WD TV live works very well and have played all the formats of files I have. 3D movie files get played as is but my TV creates the 3D picture by itself so I am happy with that setup. Menu is easy to work, setting up the network connection is easy, selecting a media server or file share is just as easy.
I would highly recommend this media player to anyone
Brett, South Africa. 20 July 2014
Love this product.
This is my second, bought for use in a second TV environment, and I love the way it can play virtually every video format out there. The built-in wireless connection makes it a breeze to play videos from shared folders on the network.
One word of warning though, do not let it update its firmware beyond the 1.16 version if you will be using network shares on Windows as the version 2.0 firmware tends to disconnect from those shares quite randomly.
Irene, South Africa. 23 July 2014
An absolutely perfect product!

"My daughters and I did a ride trip and Seattle was our final destination. When we arrived, the owner, Kathy greeted us and was so welcoming and kind. She showed us the place and it was like paradise, just magical. We were in awe of the beauty, the lake and the gorgeous flowers that Kathy does herself. The pictures do no justice, it is breath taking in person. The house has everything you can possibly need, from TV, kitchen utensils, towels, etc. Kathy and Todd are so awesome and I truly enjoyed our conversations. Thank you Kathy and Todd for opening up your home and being so kind to me and my daughters. We had amazing lovely vacation. This place is a Gem."Guest: Elaine b.

"Close enough to downtown Seattle and the airport but you never feel that close! It was perfect for my husband and I."Guest: Denise M. Date of Stay: July 2016 Review Submitted: July 18, 2016View listing
"Eight of us stayed for four nights in June. We greatly enjoyed the open floor plan kitchen/dining/living rooms. Works so well for a large group. We also greatly enjoyed the covered deck when it inevitably rained. We bought fresh fish, steaks and chicken and grilled it up on the large grill on the deck and loved it, tho we had to clean the grates first. The owner was easy to work with and communicate with and VERY promptly refunded the damage deposit. The owner provided great directions for the semi-hard to find street access. The parking spots were very ample for our three cars, but if you want to park four cars, they better be real small cars. One warning: there are a lot of stairs in the house, due to its hillside location -- not suitable for toddlers or elderly. And, one suggestion: we suggest the owner supply some new coffee cups. With a large group, it's actually nice to have mis-matched cups so everyone knows their cup. But there were not enough cups for eight people. We will probably be back in two years for the next nephew's graduation."Guest: st Date of Stay: June 2016 Review Submitted: June 27, 2016View listing
"This is the first vacation home rental we've ever done, and we lucked out. We were looking for a comfortable place to stay with easy access to downtown Seattle. This is in a perfect location - a three minute walk to the light rail station, with free parking for your car as an added bonus. The place is beautifully decorated and maintained, and is very clean. You even get your cleaning fee back for doing a few simple things before checking out. The owner is very friendly and communicates very promptly. She even invited us to a party she was having upstairs during our stay (it ended up that we couldn't make it, but what a nice gesture!)."Guest: Paul K.
