More Guides from the Unofficial Team
More Walt Disney World Unofficial Guides
As thorough as we try to make The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World - the "Big Book" - there isn't sufficient space for all the tips and valuable information that may be important and useful to certain readers. Thus, we've developed additional Disney World guides, each designed to work in conjunction with the Big Book. All provide information tailored to specific Disney World visitors.
The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World Color Companion, 2nd edition
A full color visual feast that proves that a picture is worth 1,000 words. You can read everything you need to know about Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort in the Big Book (even learn the best rooms to request), but in the Color Companion you can see the guest rooms, the pool, and the magnificent lobby.
What is The Color Companion? How is it different from The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World?
1. It Really Is a Companion While there's some information that's better communicated in prose, other information is best presented photographically. For example, photos of rooms or the pool at a Disney hotel are better than verbal descriptions. Our 900-plus-page Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World is the most comprehensive guidebook in print to Disney's Orlando empire. However, when it comes to visualizing something, there's just no substitute for a good photo. So, to cover all the bases, we offer this companion guide. There's more than enough information here to plan your entire Disney vacation, but if you want to dig deeper, using the Color Companion in conjunction with The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World gives you the whole enchilada.
2. This Guide Has a Sense of Humor There is a plentiful assortment of dry, plodding travel guides for readers who would prefer to know how many rivets there are in a flying elephant than to have a good chuckle. As for us, we're all about providing excellent information and having some fun. No useful information was sacrificed to make room for humor in the Companion. We nailed down the essential content first and then added artistic and humorous elements to make the Companion a zippier and more enjoyable read. So, if you can tolerate a little irreverence, parody, and general wackiness, the Color Companion will serve you well.
3. Sometimes We'll Pull Your Leg We might describe a fantasy resort that's 100 feet underground with rock-chiseled furniture and an occasional mole in the guestrooms, or an octopus sandwich with tentacles everywhere and malevolent eyes peeking from between the buns. We're pretty good at this, and sometimes we might fool you for a minute, but to make sure you don't call Disney reservations and attempt to book a room, or try to order the octopus sandwich at the theme park, we've included this little icon to signal that we've taken a brief break from reality.
4. It's in the Genes The humor in this guide is totally consistent with the humor in The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World. In fact, most of the humorous elements in Color Companion originally appeared in the Big Book, though not in photographic form.
The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World with Kids 2016
by Bob Sehlinger and Liliane J. Opsomer with Len Testa presents planning and touring tips for a family vacation, along with more than 20 special touring plans for families that are not published anywhere else.
What Makes the Kids Guide Different from the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World?
Beyond Disney: The Unofficial Guide to Universal Orlando, SeaWorld & The Best of Central Florida
Includes comprehensive coverage on the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Both Universal Orlando and SeaWorld remain in the top theme parks to visit in the United States - each with attendance of almost 5 million per year.
There's Another World Out There
If you think that central Florida consists only of Walt Disney World, you're wrong. What's more, you're passing up some great fun and amazing sights. Admittedly, it's taken a while, but Walt Disney World now has plenty of competition that measures up toe-to-toe. And though it may sound blasphemous to suggest a whole vacation in central Florida without setting foot on Disney property, it's not only possible but also in many ways a fresh and appealing idea.
The big four non-Disney theme parks are Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, SeaWorld, and Busch Gardens. Each is unique. Universal Studios Florida, a longtime rival of Disney's Hollywood Studios, draws its inspiration from movies and television and is every bit the equal of the Disney movie-themed park. Universal Islands of Adventure is arguably the most modern, high-tech theme park in the United States, featuring an all-star lineup of thrill rides that make it the best park in Florida for older kids and young-at-heart adults.
SeaWorld provides an incomparable glimpse into the world of marine mammals and fish, served up in a way that (for the most part) eliminates those never-ending lines. Finally, Busch Gardens, with its shows, zoological exhibits, and knockout coasters, offers the most eclectic entertainment mix of any theme park we know.
All four parks approximate, equal, or exceed the Disney standard without imitating Disney, successfully blending distinctive presentations and personalities into every attraction.
Mini-Mickey: The Pocket-Sized Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World
Mini-Mickey: The Pocket-Sized Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World is the condensed version of the Unofficial team's comprehensive Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World. Though its format is slightly larger than true pocket-sized, this is an indispensable take-along guidebook. Straightforward, tightly organized, and well indexed, Mini-Mickey is the perfect resource when you want the most important information fast.
For readers on a short or impromptu trip to Walt Disney World the contents of Mini-Mickey can easily be digested on the flight or drive down, or at the hotel the night before visiting the parks. Scientifically created touring plans for each park will save four or more hours of standing in line.
For those who do not have time to plan their Disney trip in depth, Mini-Mickey takes the guesswork out of visiting the parks and ensure that the reader sees as much as possible with the least amount of stress and effort. This book provides expert authority on how to make the most efficient and most practical use of any family's time.
Because every minute and every dollar counts, Mini Mickey: The Pocket-Sized Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World provides the information needed to tour Walt Disney like a pro.

The Mad Max trilogy is one of the most beloved franchises in Hollywood. Or is it? Mad Max (1979) is a quiet burn with not a tremendous amount going on. The 1985 film Mad Max Beyond the Thunderdome proved that Tina Turner's song saying "We Don't Need Another Hero," was right. Right? But then there was the 1982 movie Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. It sits at… Continue reading Film Face-off: 'The Road Warrior' vs. 'Mad Max: Fury Road'

Aliens and robots have overrun the city of Johannesburg, South Africa. First it was the aliens (District 9) and now it's the robots (Chappie). Depending on how you look at it, we have one man and one muse to thank and/or blame. Neill Blomkamp is the writer/director of both films, and his main man is Sharlto Copley. And if you've never seen Blomkamp's work, Copley is the man… Continue reading Film Face-off: 'District 9' vs. 'Chappie'
Film Face-off: 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' vs. 'The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies'
It is over. With six films, and approximately 8,754 minutes (if you count the extended editions), Peter Jackson is all done with Middle-earth. First came The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and now The Hobbit trilogy. How do we feel, where do we go from here, and what will become of New Zealand now that the hobbits are moving out of the shire? These are all good questions… Continue reading Film Face-off: 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' vs. 'The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies'
Matthew McConaughey has boldly gone where he has been before: a dramatic space movie. In Christopher Nolan's new film Interstellar, McConaughey plays a slightly futuristic pilot, who will hopefully save humanity. In Contact, McConaughey is a Christian philosopher. All right, all right, all right, you might be thinking, "How dare you guys compare a Nolan film to a Robert Zemeckis movie," but there are plenty of comparisons besides McConaughey (one pre-McConaissance, one post-McConaissance).

No one gets Jake Gyllenhaal and Daniel Radcliffe confused. One is Maggie's brother, and the other is Harry. This past weekend both actors had new films hit theaters. Gyllenhaal has Nightcrawler and Radcliffe has Horns. Neither movie is a superhero film, which might confuse and disorientate you just a bit, especially considering Nightcrawler is part of the X-Men universe (just not in this case).
So is it enough to do a Film Face-off just… Continue reading Film Face-off: Jake Gyllenhaal vs. Daniel Radcliffe

Are You Famous? Touring America With Alaska's Fiddling Poetby Ken Waldman
Ken Waldman has toured throughout North America as Alaska's Fiddling Poet since 1995. He is the author of six poetry collections and has released seven CDs. This, his first book of prose, is part memoir, part travel notes, and part artist how-to. A Blue Highways for 2009. "Ken's story is all our stories, collected and distilled by a roving poet/musician possessed of a clear eye and a big heart. Waldman is clearly in the tradition of Walt Whitman, Woody Guthrie, John Steinbeck, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Ken Kesey." --Jim Clark, author of Handiwork, Dancing on Canaan's Ruins, and Notions: A Jim Clark Miscellany and Jordan Professor of Southern Literature and Writer in Residence, Barton College, Wilson NC. "A great read. For those who've wondered what it's like to live a life on the road in pursuit of one's passion, here's your book. Those who already know what it's like can point and say, 'It's like this.' From the harrowing plane crash in Alaska all the way to the appearance at Kennedy Center stage, we feel like we're there." --Jeff Talmadge, CoraZong Records recording artist, internationally touring singer/songwriter.

Former Senate race candidate endorses Cassidy
Published: Tuesday, July 22, 2014 at 8:52 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 22, 2014 at 8:52 a.m.
BATON ROUGE — Republican U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy has picked up support for his U.S. Senate campaign from a former GOP competitor.
Rep. Paul Hollis, the St. Tammany Parish state lawmaker who recently dropped out of the race, announced Monday that he is endorsing Cassidy in the Nov. 4 election, instead of tea party favorite Rob Maness.
Hollis issued a statement saying Cassidy will "represent our conservative Louisiana values" in the Senate.
Cassidy and Maness are trying to unseat Democrat incumbent Mary Landrieu, who is seeking a fourth term in office. Cassidy is running with support of the GOP establishment.
If no candidate gets more than 50 percent of the vote in November, the top two vote-getters advance to a Dec. 6 runoff.

christian louboutin boot
christian louboutin rollerboy spikesThis last side project is the reason we're in town: the launch of the third and final (for now) drop of his superb Nike + RT line, which will arrive in shops across the globe on 16 October - a selection of four styles (low-top, mid-top, high-top and gladiator boot) that in contrast to its neon-infused white and black forebears , this time comes in a more subdued beige version with greyscale detailing. I used to play basketball when I was young, like 16, and was obsessed with sports culture.Maharam calls it restrained luxury." At $250 a pair (at selected Nike stores), these shoes are better suited for boardrooms than locker rooms. Combining fashion and fitness in shoes isn't completely new then - however, Armani's translation could be the most sports-focused yet. With all the Pro Basketball teams you can listen to hundreds of basketball games this season and next season.,christian louboutin tsar pumpsThe British designer Alexander McQueen , once the enfant terrible of fashion, has established himself as one of the pre-eminent designers in the world today with a breathtaking new collection. A French girl in a black down jacket and red ballet flats, who'd been through this before when H&M collaborated with Viktor & Rolf,?had already pre-shopped and priced her wish list online.? And during our entire vigil,?a chain-smoking Belgian in head-to-toe Chanel, obviously part of an eBay gang, called friends in line in other European cities to compare conditions and fine-tune her buying strategy. We watch a lot of romantic movies together and he brings me to basketball games.?Five Days, Five Looks, One GirlMaybe it's the shoes or maybe it's the missed twelve-foot jumper, but someone in the sparse crowd screams Telfair sucks!" early in the game between the Blazers and the Spurs. During the promotion, which premiered for the first time during Good Morning America yesterday, the players discuss nutrition as Obama photobombs away in the background eating apples, drinking water, and even dunking a small basketball.

All Land, Sea and Air applications need maximum system voltage to function efficiently. For this to take place, the battery (the heart of the system) must be clean and healthy on the inside. A sulphated battery causes the system voltage to be depressed placing stress on every electrical system component.
Sulphation is the leading cause of sick batteries causing low system voltage. Sulphation build up is a dense insulating barrier which forms on battery plates reducing the battery's ability to accept and give off power. Ultimately it causes premature failure of the battery and key electrical system components.
Installing our patented Pulse Technology will ensure batteries work like new, providing maximum system voltage resulting in maximum fuel economy, maximum reliability, minimum emissions, reduced downtime, increased service life of onboard components and fewer battery replacements.

The request for more information was tempered with a warning
from Crs Richard Thomson and Chris Staynes that the policy
should be the start of long-term incremental changes, because
trying to implement health promotion measures too fast
usually backfired.
Cr Staynes said he wanted to find out what it might cost to
implement some of the measures proposed, as he agreed with
comments made by health promoters in a public forum before
yesterday's meeting of the council's community development
committee that the policy might be toothless if it had to
rely on changes being made within existing budgets.
The policy sets out the council's commitment to smoke-free
goals and outlines some measures it could consider taking,
such as promoting the smoke-free message on signs or other
communication in public places or at council-run or sponsored
events; negotiating smoke-free environments with lessees and
council-owned organisations and promoting the messages to
council staff.
The council would not enforce the measures, just use them to
promote a message it supported.
Health promoters said they were largely happy with the
council's policy, but were concerned it did not having any
funding attached and directed the council to ''consider''
measures rather than definitely put them in place.
Penelope Scott, from the Cancer Society, said that could lead
to the policy being interpreted as a licence to do nothing.
Smoke-free public places were no longer a whacky idea, they
were mainstream and supported by most people, she said.
But council staff said that gave them the ability to decide
on what and when to act based on council priorities.
Staff are to report to councillors with an implementation
plan in time for annual plan discussion in May.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.
The freedom of an individual to choose to smoke is not
absolute. When that choice causes harm to others, impinges on
the freedoms of others, or causes a burden to the rest of
society then it stands to be regulated or banned. The most
prestigious medical journal in the world, The Lancet,
just published an article (last week) showing dramatic
declines in pre-term births and asthma-related
hospitalisations of children in places where public smoking
bans come into effect. The effect is immediate: a 10% decline
in both pre-term births and asthma hospitalisations within
one year of a public smoking ban.
The wowsers are really trying to take over the world. No more
personal freedom. No more individual choice. We are right and
you are wrong. If you dont fit get out - that's what an
inclusive society does. We all know banning things works like
a charm. Ban hot air and all the wowsers would have to leave
town instead.
Crs Staynes and Thomson are on the right track by suggesting
incremental change concerning making Dunedin a smoke free
city. The last thing we want is some kind of confrontational,
fag police unit, stamping out peoples' fags.
By increasing the tax on smokes and restricting public places
for smoking, the problem gets sorted to a more manageable

Drawbacks? The only two I can find are the fan which makes the tiniest amount of noise and the streaming functionality. While it sounds great it requires a UPnP server. You can only pull music from the server with the 95. You can't "push" files from your server to the 95. So when you're playing bands like Pink Floyd there's a gap of time between tracks which is not at all how the band intended their work to be heard. So for those titles I just spin the disc.Read more ›
My main purpose in buying this player was for hi-res audio; I don't even own a hi-def television. I was hoping to find a relatively inexpensive player (by high end standards) that would make hi-res music sound better than cd's currently do on my cd front end. It's replacing a Pioneer DV-578A that was great for the price, but was of lower sonic quality than the rest of my system.
I'm now at around 5 weeks of the unit being powered up for burn in. I'm using the Shunyata Venom power cord, & a 90's Tara (unbalanced RCA) "Analog Standard" interconnect.
While very sensitive to the mastering quality of what it's playing, on hi res this puppy is STAGGERING. I am stunned that this level of musicality is available at this price point. The only better front end I have ever owned was an entry level (around 2k in early 90's dollars) Well Tempered Record Player with a Blue Point standard; & that is based on a very OLD memory as I had to sell the TT in 1995.
2 tips for new owners:
1. People have told me it needs 100-500 hours of burn in before it sounds it's best. That has been my experience also. While it actually sounds quite good right out of the box, at 5 weeks it's still getting better & better.
2. If you plan to play iso's, make sure you have firmware dated no later than 12/11 (P9x-61-1219). Oppo has been forced to remove this capability starting with the 1/12 firmware release. One person states that Oppo's don't allow flashing to older firmware; so for some people this may be an important issue.Read more ›
First, the unit is very substantial and generally looks and feels like a very high quality unit, one that would be right at home in an audiophile's collection. Initially, I was a little disappointed once I had it hooked up to my amp and speakers. I tried a collection of my CDs to test out the players performance and one of my limited SACD collection. The sound quality was definitely better than my old player, but only to a minor degree and the bright, somewhat harsh sound I've come to associate with CDs was still present.
As I came to discover, out of the box, this unit is not very well optimized for two channel stereo. I suppose many people will use this unit in a surround sound system, so Oppo seems to pre-configure it for this kind of setup.Read more ›

Collagen is our body's key structural protein involved in creating strong and healthy nails, hair, tendons, bones, muscle, and keeping our skin smooth. During our youth collagen helps prevent wrinkles from forming, gives skin elasticity, helps create strong and thicker hair. In our early 20's collagen diminishes by about 1% per year. By the age of 30, the signs of collagen reduction have started to become visible. The reduction in bones and joints began to be felt. Collagen 1 & 3 are the main collagen types in connective tissue. Recent research has shown that the skin reacts particularly well to certain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that nourish the skin, making it appear youthful and healthy. This formula has been fortified with the top vitamins and minerals with high antioxidant values to aid the fight against free radical damage which consume collagen and elastin and can cause signs of premature aging.*

Today's social connectedness, mobile devices and instant interaction, "any time, any place†are changing the way your customers live and work. To remain competitive, your business needs to adapt to the new reality.
Connect People Inside and Outside of the Organization
Traditional business management applications are passive, backward-looking systems that report on the results of past activity. That's no longer enough for businesses that want to actively engage with employees and customers. Systems need to connect information to provide insight into performance, as well as the interactions between people.
Business management systems of the future need to incorporate communication with transactions, helping customers to make the right decisions. Collaboration must be linked to production to coordinate workers who are not in the same room. Reporting has to evolve from tracking past results to visualizing future opportunities.
Unified Business Management
From email to voice to video, from presence to social – business management solutions, including ERP and CRM, should help connected organizations to:
- Leverage the exploding number of channels to connect with customers, at the time and place of their choosing.
- Create an inclusive, listening organization by extending collaboration scenarios that exist internally to include customers.
- Evolve from an organization that engages with individual customers, to one that leverages the crowd to benefit the brand.
Connected organizations remove impediments that separate information from the people who need it. They foster internal and external connections that inspire innovation and improve productivity. Unified business management systems support connected businesses by providing insight that people need to make better, more informed decisions.
Microsoft has just released a white paper entitled "Dynamic Business: From Aspiration to Reality†to share the vision of how businesses can adapt to the new social realities. Download the white paper and let's talk about how business solutions built to support innovation could help you build a connected organization.

We stayed here overnight. Management was awesome. Apparently the previous management did not keep the park up. It now looks great flowers and greenery everywhere.

The feel here was very "gated community" with a lot of rules but I think if I was an owner I might want it that way as well. I think if you're a golfer this is a great place. Though we received a "discount" since we didn't golf. The club is an easy walk and the restaurant was fine. The lake is really a pond but still it was lovely to sit outside there. The pool area is very nice with a grill you can use. We stayed a week here because we were using it as a home base for day trips. Both Yosemite and Monterey we a couple hours drive away. I wouldn't stay a week again. 4 full days would probably have been perfect for us. If you get a back-in site on the "lake" beware. We were told we would fit and did not. Parking is in a different area. They do pick up your trash every morning. It took me days to get the laundry finished because you are limited to using only one washer and dryer. - Nini03
Apr 2016 - $50.00
We stayed a couple of nights passing through the area. This was our second stay here. Apparently we didn't rate the first stay.
The park is a short drive from HWY 99 (Exit 170) along paved, 2 lane roads. The park has gated access so you're given a remote to open the gate.
The sites are a mixture of back-ins and pull-throughs. There seemed to be the extended stay sites. There is significant bump to transition from the road to the pad similar to driving over a curb. Several of the parking pads are experiencing broken concrete. The parking pads are narrow. This park understands the simple concept of the importance of a flat, level site as the sites were level and flat. Distance or hedge rows establishes privacy between the sites. There are manicured grass lawns with the sites and throughout the park. Curbside garbage pickup.
There are a few trees scattered around the park so satellite reception would be dependent upon site assignment and your dish configuration. The park brochure didn't show any cable or broadcast channels. Didn't try to get any broadcast channels.
The park provided WiFi was excellent but occupancy was low. Our Verizon WiFi hotspot worked well. Didn't try the NET10 phone so don't know about the reception.
The designated fenced pet area was in a corner. It had a grass surface. There was a bag dispenser and waste collection station in the fenced pet area for waste. There was sufficient area to walk dogs along the park roads. But there weren't any bag dispensers and waste collection stations around the park for waste.
The clubhouse, pool & hot tub amenities and park's appearance made this a pleasant stop over. We would stay here again if the need arose while traveling through the area. Don't believe we would want to make it an extended stay site due to the limited shopping nearby and the complimentary round of golf for 2 per site per night. - bsb814

Great place to stay when visiting Yosemite. Beautiful site across from a lovely fountain; incredibly well kept park. Gated and secure. Lots of shrubs between sites made for more privacy. We'd been through some dirt and mud on the way there and the manager recommended someone to come to the site and clean our RV. He did a great job! - Betty2016

Stayed here for a week visiting family. RV sites are in rear of mobile home park, visually might not be the best. Lived here for most of my life and maybe understand the area more. Very quiet, no safety concerns. The couple that runs office are very nice. Price reflects weekly rate of $185. This is a cash only place, and office does smell like smoke. Be aware that restroom facility is older, maybe clean not appealing. Used shower in rv. All said nice stay, would use again because of its proximity to Madera. - Randoni

Country Living is a decent park conveniently located off 99 for an overnight stop. The price is $30, cash only. The smell of cigarettes is pretty strong in the office so if you're sensitive, you might want to send someone else in. The sites are well laid out and easy to get in and out of. The park was quiet and we'd stay again. - Travelfish

This is a beautiful park indeed IF you want to get away from the city and enjoy the great outdoors. Facilities were spotless. All hookups were fine. The price is great. Dump station is easy to use. There is plenty of hiking, walking and fishing to keep you busy. Be prepared for: rough roads going out to the park, no wifi, very sketchy wireless service and active rattlesnakes. Just be prepared. We stayed here for 8 days and enjoyed everyday knowing that you must be vigilant and watch the trail or road in front of you. This campground would be a 10 if the roads were a bit better getting there. Its worth the trip!! - Beech35p
Mar 2015 - $15.00
This is a beautiful campground atop a hill overlooking the lake. The area is rolling hills full of wildflowers and falcon nests. Antenna is good, Wi-Fi is good when it works. AT&T and Verizon signals fluctuate, hotspots are not reliable. There is absolutely no traffic noise. Wildlife abounds with howling coyotes, turkeys, falcons, gophers, bunnies, and tons of birds. The only disruption are the weekenders that descend on the campground and party all night until they leave on Sunday. - LifeRidingShotgun
Oct 2013 - $15.00
This was a very pleasant campground, but trees and location meant no view of the lake. Had no trouble getting satellite reception, but no cell service at all. I had a full hookup site for the price shown with a senior federal pass. I only spent one night because of the lack of cell service, but would come back again. - judy_online

This was our favorite campsite so far. Hiking trails, beautiful campsites, kind camp hosts, a lake, fishing, swimming, super dog friendly, a disc golf park, beautiful area....so good we can't wait to return. - Two_Huschels
Jan 2016 - $15.00
This is still one of my favorite places in California if you want a super-quiet place, in a very pretty area, and slightly out of the way. Yes, it is probably not the best choice for a really big rig, but my 32' Class C fits in most spaces very well and sites are nicely spread out. Verizon service is best from one of the higher sites. During the week off-season, it is mostly empty, but there is always a camp host. And the dump station is often locked off-season during the week because local people tend to sneak in and use it without authorization. All I had to do was stop at the camp host, and he drove down and unlocked it for me. Lake level was up 8' from early December, which is nice but still not good enough for anything but kayaking, but the rolling hills coming in were green instead of brown for a change, with views of snow in the distant mountains. Very pretty place. - judy_online
Apr 2015 - $10.00
We paid the senior pass rate. Lake levels were very low but still good for fishing and kayaking. Campground is built on a hill so it was not very easy to find a site that was level enough for a difficult 40' MH. Large pull-thrus and back ins, some with electricity and water available around the loops. Verizon 4G was OK and 3G for phone was OK. Very well taken care of. Easy dump station access. Slow during the week, a little busier on weekends. Site 40 was very level and very long with a good view of the water. - rhianna

Jim Cramer sorts through the rubble of retail to survey what stores can survive the strength of Amazon. » Read More
Discount and dollar stores are back in fashion and back in the black. Just about everyone else has his back to the wall.
Not only are shoppers hitting the mall less frequently, they're also hitting the computer less frequently this holiday season and that has e-tailers pulling out all the stops — before the turkey even hits the oven.
The Dow staged a late afternoon comeback on Tuesday after a positive outlook from Hewlett-Packard offset fears of more losses at Citigroup and other banks.
You know it's been a bad Wall Street session when Cramer starts off his "Stop Trading" segment with the blunt comment, "This is a horrible market." He goes on to list the various factors: insurers, banks, retail and minerals (he didn't even mention the autos!).
Another harrowing week on Wall Street has drawn to a close. Find out how the traders are playing it. Also check out our interview with celebrated strategist Ed Yardeni.
Holiday advertising from a lengthening list of retailers will reflect the cautious mood among consumers as data indicate spending is slowing and store revenue is falling, the New York Times reports.
The job losses in this downturn are hitting workers across all income levels and job categories, and the cuts are swifter and broader than in past recessions.
The job losses in this downturn are hitting workers across all income levels and job categories, and the cuts are swifter and broader than in past recessions.
Facing the weakest holiday season in nearly two decades, retailers and the vendors who keep their shelves stocked are walking a fine line between helping each other stay afloat and protecting their profits.
Take off that Sarah Palin mask and get your shop on because retailers are desperate this year and they've rolled out some hefty sales before the first little pirate or princess even hits the doorbell.
Stocks bounced higher on Tuesday, with the Dow surging almost 11 percent to close back above 9,000...
With more shoppers opting for paper over plastic - cash over credit cards, that is - Kmart is reminding consumers that it offers layaway service.
As of about midday on Tuesday, the markets have swung between being positive, negative and flat for the day. Which companies are withstanding the volatility and sustaining their gains since Friday's close?
For many of the nation's retailers, this is shaping up to be the most critical holiday season since the recession of the early 1980s. Chains that fare poorly could end up as ghosts of Christmases past, says the New York Times.
Plus, Cramer explains where the money goes after a sell-off and more.
Cramer makes the call on viewers' favorite stocks.
Don't let volatility scare you out of this market. There are opportunities to be had.
Following are the week's biggest winners and losers. Find out why shares of Campbell's and Amgen popped while Buffalo Wild Wings and GameStop dropped.
Despite all the trouble in financials right now, the sector as a whole has been outperforming since July.
Plus, Cramer opines on a retail resurgence and ConAgra.

Mum had her birthday on the weekend and part of her present was a trashy novel cover made by Cravings Frocks.
I had seen her science cover at the markets and asked her to do a custom cover for me with the theme of History, as mum likes to read historial romance novels involving slaves .... I think she did a delightful job of creating a book cover that would hide the identify of her novel. And what novel did we buy to go in it? Devil of the Highlands of course (Mum being scottish ...).

This invention relates to helmet attachment mechanisms used with mounting assemblies for night vision devices, and more particularly to a shroud plate which may act as an interface between a helmet and the helmet mount for a night vision device.
Night vision devices are commonly used by military personnel for conducting operations in low light or night conditions. The night vision devices used by the military typically include image intensifier tubes and associated optics that convert infrared and near infrared light into viewable images. A common night vision device currently being used in the U.S. Army is the PVS7 night vision goggle, manufactured by ITT Corporation of Roanoke, Va.
Assemblies for mounting night vision devices to a helmet are well-known in the art. These mounting assemblies allow a user's hands to remain free while viewing a scene through the night vision device. It is also desirable for these mounting assemblies to be removable from the helmet so that they do not interfere with a user's actions when they are not needed, such as during the daytime or when a user parachutes from an airplane.
A night vision device may be attached to a helmet through a helmet attachment mechanism which acts as an interface between a helmet mount and the helmet. In previous designs, helmet attachment mechanisms have been attached to a helmet by a strap secured around the helmet. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,472,776 to Soto et al. However, in such mechanisms, the strap and helmet attachment mechanism is not permanently attached to the helmet, and may be susceptible to being lost during a maneuver or simply being misplaced. Alternatively, fasteners have been used to secure attachment mechanisms directly to the helmet. Yet, previous helmet attachment mechanisms have comprised sharp edges and/or hooked shaped portions which may interfere with or even seriously injure a user. For instance, a hook portion may catch the shroud line of an opening parachute, cutting the line or violently jerking the user's head and neck. In order to prevent a shroud line from snagging on a helmet attachment mechanism, paratroopers have placed tape or a similar material over the mechanism before jumping and engaging their parachute. However, this is not desirable because it then requires removal of the tape before the night vision mount can be attached and a new piece of protection is required for each use of the helmet mount. Moreover, a suitable material may not always be available.
These and other problems exist with the helmet attachment mechanisms for night vision devices disclosed in the prior art. Consequently a need exists for an improved helmet attachment mechanism.
The present invention, therefore, provides for a shroud plate to act as an interface between a helmet mount and a helmet. More particularly, the shroud plate of the present invention allows a helmet mount for a night vision device to be easily attached and removed from a helmet. Further, when the night vision device is not attached to the helmet, the shroud plate has no sharp edges or hook portions or any other type of crevice or opening on which an opening parachute shroud line may snag.
The present invention provides for a shroud plate for headgear comprising a shell, an insert, a lock and a release mechanism wherein the shell extends around at least a portion of the insert has a smooth surface with rounded edges and corners and is shaped to match the contour of the headgear. Further, the insert is adapted to receive a lock plate, the lock is adapted to secure the lock plate to the insert, and the release mechanism allows for removal of the lock plate from the insert.

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1. The shroud plate 10 is shown attached to a standard U.S. Army Kevlar composite helmet 12. The helmet is based on U.S. Design Pat. No. 449,411 to Largeot and is manufactured by CGF Helmets, Inc. of Akron, Ohio. In an exemplary embodiment, the shroud plate 10 may be attached to the helmet 12 by stainless steel screws 14 inserted into openings in the helmet 12 and shell 13. Flanged threaded inserts 15 may be driven into holes machined into shell 13. Threaded inserts 15 may also comprise a knurled outer surface in order to more securely attach them to the shell 13 when they are inserted into the machined hole. The threaded portion of the insert may also comprise two opposite halves attached to a flange at one end of the insert with a small gap separating the halves on their longitudinal axis. This separation allows the inserts to expand slightly when screws are threaded into them, tightly securing them to the shell 13. However, the shroud plate 10 may also be attached to the helmet 12 in any manner sufficient to secure a helmet attachment mechanism to the helmet 12 and support the accompanying helmet mount and night vision device. In the present invention, a shroud plate 10 may be retrofitted to any suitable helmet or other headgear, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the invention is not restricted to the helmet shown.
FIG. 2 shows a front side view of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The shroud plate 10 comprises a shell 13 which may be manufactured to fit the contour of a helmet. In one exemplary embodiment, the shell 13 may be machined from a block of nylon 6/6. However, the shell 13 may be manufactured from any suitable material sufficient to sustain the forces subjected to it during operation. The shell 13 may alternatively be injection molded from nylon 6/6 or a suitable polymer. When the shell 13 is injection molded, its walls are about {fraction (80/1000)} inch on all sides and the back side of the shell may comprise indented sections separated by support ridges. The indented sections allow the shell 13 to be a minimum weight while still providing a suitably sturdy base for the shroud plate 10. In addition to fitting the shell 13 to the contour of the helmet 12, the top surface of the shell 13 may be smooth with rounded edges and corners. Fitting the shell 13 to the shape of the helmet 12 and having a smooth surface with rounded edges and corners on the shell 13 ensures that there are no unnecessary edges on which another object, such as a shroud line of a parachute or a dangling tree branch in heavy foliage, may catch. The screws 14 which secure the plate 10 to the helmet 12 may be inserted from the inside of the helmet so that the heads of the screws are not exposed on the external surface. The length of the screws is such that the bodies of the screws 14 do not protrude beyond the external surface of the shell 13. The screws 14, however, should be long enough to securely attach the shell 13 to the helmet 12.
An exemplary embodiment of the present invention further comprises an aluminum insert or receiving plate 16. The insert 16 could also be made of titanium or other suitable materials. The insert 16 is designed as a bay for a lock plate or adapter plate 17 (see FIG. 9) and functions as the interface between a helmet mount and a helmet 12. The shroud plate 10 may comprise an insert 16 that is integral with a shell 13 essentially making the plate one piece. The shroud plate 10 may comprise two integrally related pieces, the shell 13 and the insert 16, to optimize weight and durability. A lightweight shell minimizes the weight a user must bear while a durable lock plate ensures a sturdy interface between a helmet mount and a helmet. However, it is also possible that the shroud plate 10 may be one piece made from one material, for example all nylon or all aluminum.
In order to secure the lock plate 17, the base of the insert 16 may be indented from the top surface of the plate. Further, the insert 16 may comprise a hollowed indentation 19 on a side wall to fit a corresponding edge of the lock plate 17. The insert 16 may also comprise an opening in a side wall designed to accommodate a lock 18 which is slidably coupled to the insert 16.
As shown in FIG. 6, the sides 20 of the lock 18 may be tapered into a dovetail shape in order to secure the lock 18 to the insert 16 at the opening in the side wall, which opening has a mating dovetail shape. In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the top surface 22 of the lock 18 is contoured to match that of the shell 13 in order to ensure a smooth surface. Also, in a further preferred embodiment, the rear of the lock 18 may comprise a tapered overhanging ledge 24 which serves to further secure the lock plate 17 when it is introduced into the insert 16. With further reference to FIG. 7, a protrusion 34 may extend from the bottom surface of the lock 18. Protrusion 34 allows for the lock 18 to be connected to release button 26 by a link plate 28 as shown in FIG. 4. Protrusion 34 may be attached to lock 18 by a threaded insert or by any other suitable means. Lock 18 may be connected to link plate 28 by a rivet, bolt, screw or any other appropriate means for attachment. In a preferred embodiment, the lock 18 may be machined from titanium. However, the lock 18 may also be manufactured from any other suitable material.
FIG. 4 shows a back side view of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Release button 26 may be attached to link plate 28 by a rivet, a bolt or a screw 30, or by any other means sufficient to secure them together. Release button 26 and link plate 28 may be machined from aluminum and titanium respectively in a preferred embodiment or any other suitable material. Link plate 28 may have drilled openings at either end to accommodate means for attaching release button 26 and lock 18 to it. The back surface of insert 16 may be contoured to the shape of the helmet 12, but may also contain a flat center channel which houses the link plate 28 and allows it to slide on a smooth surface. In a presently preferred embodiment, two springs 33 may be placed between the release button 26 and the rear of the insert 16 on opposite sides of the link plate 28. Springs 33 bias lock 18 to secure the lock plate 17 until release button 26 is pressed, thereby counteracting the bias of the springs 33, moving the lock 18 out of the way and allowing the night vision device to be removed. In an alternate embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a spring 32 may be placed between protrusion 34 on the lock 18 and a wall formed by the shell 13 where it meets the insert 16.
In operation, a user may attach a night vision device to the shroud plate 10 by fitting one edge of the lock plate 17 into the hollowed indentation 19 of the insert 16. In order to introduce the lock plate 17 to the insert 16, the user may press the lock plate 17 against the lock 18, forcing the lock 18 to displace enough to allow the lock plate 17 to become flush with the insert 16, a snap-lock action. A rounded front edge on the ledge 24 allows the lock plate 17 to displace the lock 18 upon insertion by a user. Tapered sides interface between the insert 16 and the lock plate 17 and also between the lock plate 17 and the lock 18. These tapered sides create a secure fit between the components. Further, the tapered top surface of the lock plate 17 matching the tapered ledge 24 should provide for automatic adjustment to normal wear between the mating surfaces. The user also may depress and hold the release button 26 which will move the overhanging ledge 24 of the lock 18 to allow insertion of the lock plate 17. Once the lock plate 17 is flush with the insert 16, the user may let go of the release button 26. Springs 33 will then cause the lock 18 and release button 26 to return to their original position, with the ledge 24 of the lock 18 securing the lock plate 17 to the insert 16. The tapered interface of ledge 24 prevents casual separation of the lock plate 17 from the insert 16 without displacement of the lock 18.
In order to release the night vision device from the insert 16, the user may depress and hold the release button 26. The ledge 24 of the lock 18 will again slide upward, allowing removal of the lock plate 17.
As shown in FIG. 3, the release button 26 is centrally located at the bottom of the shell 13, which allows the user to reach up in a natural motion and have their thumb in position to depress the release button 26 and thereby disengage the night vision device from the insert 16. Having a centrally located release button 26 further allows a right-handed or left-handed person the same ease of release. The release button 26 may also have rounded edges and a bottom edge contoured to match the rounded bottom edge of the shell 13. The lock 18 and release button 26 may be positioned opposite one another at different sides of the insert 16. Further, alternate arrangements of the lock 18 and release button 26 are possible. For instance, the release button 26 may be located adjacent to the lock 18.
While various embodiments of this invention have been shown and described, it would be apparent to those skilled in the art that many more modifications are possible without departing from the inventive concept herein. It is, therefore, to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, this invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.

It seems as though there is a bit of a bidding war developing for the Arsenal defender and club captain Thomas Vermaelen. But Arsene Wenger and the Gunners hierarchy have a decision to make as to whether to simply accept the highest offer, assuming we agree to sell in the first place that is.

Idiotic Anti-Arsenal article blames Wilshere for his injury?!?
I am used to seeing stupid and misinformed stuff about Arsenal in the media, but today seemed to hit a new low. A spectacularly blinkered and idiotic article in the Metro lays the blame for the injury Jack Wilshere suffered in the England game against Denmark, not at the feet of Daniel Agger who made the tackle, not at the England physios for failing to discover the injury or bring the midfielder off, but at the feet of the Arsenal player himself.
Arsenal have a great chance to exploit Liverpool's problems!!
What are Liverpool's weaknesses? by KJ
It's still a couple of days away but there's a massive game coming up on Saturday and Arsenal will need to start a winning run against some of the bigger teams for the next 6 weeks if we are to stay in the title race. But the same was being said back in November and Liverpool were flying high then and could have taken top spot had they beaten us.
Arsenal poised to snap up Swiss defender in January?
Arsenal in for Schar by AT
If media reports are to be believed, the Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is pondering over a January swoop for the highly rated FC Basel centre-half Fabian Schar. Apparently Wenger has been scouting the youngster for quite some time now and will be ready to make his move when the transfer window re-opens in January.
The 4 players Arsenal need to complete the jigsaw
Who to go for in January by Ben
Arsenal captain on Barcelona's transfer list- Lucky he's injured
It seems strange to be glad about an Arsenal player having an injury, but that is the situation I find myself in. Actually, the same was true last year when Kieran Gibbs got injured, luckily enough just before the January window closed. That meant that Arsene Wenger rushed through the transfer of Nacho Monreal from Malaga, meaning that we never had to see that grinning buffoon Andre Santos in an Arsenal shirt anymore.
Should Arsenal consider selling Vermaelen to Barcelona?
Arsenal have had some highly publicised defensive problems recently, with captain and central defender Thomas Vermaelen coming under fire from various directions. Officials at Barcelona have not been paying attention, though, because they are preparing to table an offer of around £15 million for the Belgian international in the summer. The Spanish giants are also looking at Liverpool's Daniel Agger, but the fact that Arsenal and Barcelona play similar systems could make Vermaelen the preferred option, according to the Guardian.
Why Arsenal MUST play Giroud against Liverpool
If Arsene Wenger was thinking of doing a bit of tinkering with the Arsenal team, that is obviously his perogative (not Bobby Brown's). The one change that he should not even consider, however, is the inclusion of Olivier Giroud. With the Frenchman having scored two goals in each of his last two games, this probably will not seem like a radical idea, but that is not the only reason why Wenger must have him in the starting line up tomorrow.

Dr. Roof is a full service roofing company with our headquarters in Roswell, Georgia. Dr. Roof has been serving the Metropolitan Atlanta area since 1988. Our mission is excellence in roofing and our aim is to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing excellent workmanship and customer service. More
GuildQuality customer satisfaction surveys enable homeowners to rate their contractor on a scale of zero to four (with zero being the worst and four being the best) in all sorts of categories. Our members can publish a summary of those answers here on their profile page, displaying a bar for as many or as few questions as they like. The score for each category indicates the percentage of survey respondents who answered a three or four to that particular question.
Roof (925)
Roof repair (925)
James Hardie (61)
Siding (61)
We display two types of written homeowner feedback on GuildQuality member profile pages: Comments and Reviews.
In response to our customer satisfaction surveys, homeowners share lots of comments about construction quality, communication, or any other question asked in the survey. Guildmembers can selectively publish these comments here on their profile page.
Reviews are different than comments. These are star ratings that homeowners ask us to publish, and they come with a written description of the type of experience they had working with their contractor. We publish all of the reviews we receive: positive and negative alike.
The roof and foundation of my house needs to be fixed. If I get the roof done first because it is leaking, will it be affected when the foundation is fixed?
We suggest addressing your foundation issues first. Everything rests on your foundation. Even the slightest movement may affect everything above. Before you invest in a new roof, be sure your foundation is corrected.
As a GuildQuality Guildmember, Dr. Roof relies on our customer surveying to help them deliver an exceptional customer experience.
We have surveyed customers on behalf of Dr. Roof in Marietta, GA; Roswell, GA; Atlanta, GA; Alpharetta, GA; Cumming, GA; Johns Creek, GA; Lawrenceville, GA; Sandy Springs, GA; Suwanee, GA; Duluth, GA; and 40 other cities in Georgia and New Jersey.
In this report, Dr. Roof has published a summary of the customer feedback they've received since they joined GuildQuality in October 2011. In that time, 731 out of 1,285 customers (57%) responded to a GuildQuality satisfaction survey, with the most recent response in May 2016.
Dr. Roof surveys all of their customers shortly after the completion of work, and their feedback appears in the summary on this page.
If you are a Dr. Roof customer, and if Dr. Roof completed work for you after October of 2011 but you haven't yet received a survey, please let us know.
