PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Antivirus 2010
PC Tools has its work cut out with Spyware Doctor and Antivirus these days, and with a range of low-priced rival suites available it's left to those who are happy with the Windows firewall or have a dedicated alternative handy to consider a purchase. It has been rather slow in evolving however, and the latest version for 2010 doesn't offer any particularly radical new features or a new look, instead opting to refine existing tools to better handle new emerging threats.
The interface hasn't really changed at all over the last few versions and there's nothing radically different here. From the main screen it's possible to scan a computer and switch key tools on or off as well as viewing status reports of recent scans and updates. The IntelliGuard tool suite is still here and itemises the various guards available for individual control, though we still can't see too many occasions when this would be required. A typical collection of more advanced settings do offer decent control over the software's behaviour, but in truth this is still a very basic set of tools.
New features include automatic webpage scanning for Internet Explorer and a range of new "state awareness" modes that include a game mode to disable alerts when running full-screen applications (including movies and other content), a power-saving mode to disable scheduled tasks when running on battery power and an idle mode that performs scans when the PC is not in use to improve subsequent scan times.
The software does seem to do a good job at detecting and eliminating threats during this process, and along with the West Coast Labs Checkmark certification it has a 100% on-demand detection and clean rate of WildList Malware and a 99.46% clean rate of full test malware sample according to AV-Test.org.
Scans do take quite a while and though there's little impact on general computer use while they are running, we were expecting improvement here. Rivals such as Norton 360 took just 10 seconds to perform a quick scan that takes PC Tools six and a half minutes on the same test system, though this did drop to around 4 minutes on subsequent scans.
There are other niggling issues such as the fact that many of the updates we performed required a restart and the fact that you're not given a lot of information on threats, but our biggest concern has to be the price.
£39.99 for an "AV-only" suite seems overpriced, particularly when you consider that all-singing, all-dancing solutions such as BitDefender Total Security are available for a similar price or less, if you shop around online. For this reason it's difficult to offer Spyware Doctor with Antivirus a recommendation, even if its core task of protecting you from threats is handled very well.
Despite performing well in detecting and cleaning the latest threats, a lack of ambition in terms of introducing new tools or performing any radical improvements lets Spyware Doctor down, but not nearly as much as the high price.

Friday Finds 06.28.13
Fresh from the epic weekend fair Dwell on Design (aka America's largest modern design event), our editors have riled up their favorite finds from the week for your viewing pleasure. Happy weekend!

Kickstarter of the Week: EarthBaked Footware
Call us green and groovy, but we were charmed by industrial designer Steve Boynton's idea for this lasts-a-mere-90-days bit of footwear. Made from wool and rubber, EarthBaked shoes are intended to last just a single season before you bury them in the yard or pitch them into the compost bin. He counts the idea as part of a "return-to-sender design philosophy," one that makes use of natural materials and takes into account the full life cycle of the object. More slippers than proper shoes, EarthBaked footware is ideal for hacking around the house, and insofar as they're intended to wear out after just one season, make sure you get yours for summer.

Alexander McQueen and the Meaning of Life
I did not attend "Savage Beauty," the Alexander McQueen exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, thinking that I would fall to my knees and weep at the recognition of some finite and indefinable quality (genius?). With the awareness of fashion of an underfunded graduate student, I expected luxurious fabrics and clothing that spoke of wealth and extravagance.

Camping Bag by Best Made Co.
Sturdy waxed canvas, brass grommets, and a woven lanyard make for one mighty fine ditty bag by Best Made Co., a modern-day retailer in the manner of dry goods stores from the past. We dig the simple construction, the fact that the bag can easily be slung over a tree branch (camping season is upon us), and that it's versatile enough to use as a day pack—just be sure to reserve this for Great Outdoors lest you want to fall into the "urban woodsman" fashion-victim trap. For more product ideas, see our green gift guide.

Palm Springs Modernism Week: The Cocktail Hour with Dwell
Mid-century modernism is a way of life in Palm Springs, California, and the community continually celebrates the look, feel, and style of the era. So when the Paul Kaplan Group and Dwell invited Modernism Week attendees to celebrate The Cocktail Hour last night, a crowd clad in mid-century garb showed up at The Fontenell. Completely restored to its mid-century glory, the estate was a family vacation home for the Max Factor family in the 1950s. Its courtyard and pool provide the perfect setting for a party. Cocktail in hand, party goers were treated to a fashion show hosted by Bill Miller of Palm Spring's vintage clothing destination Dejà Vu Vintage Finery. Models took to the stage dressed in cocktail attire of the '50s and elicited audible cries of dress envy. After the show, conversations centered on Modernism Week festivities: lectures attended, the upcoming 'it' parties, and which house tours are not to be missed.

H&M Debuts line of Bike-Friendly Clothes
Swedish clothing mega brand H&M just announced a new apparel line tailored to cyclists. Designed in collaboration with London's Brick Lane Bikes, the collection includes jackets, pants, t-shirts, blazers, button-downs, and shorts. Pieces are tailored to fit the needs of cyclists—meaning longer jackets, taped seams, and vents—and feature water-repellent and breathable materials. The line will be available in stores an online beginning March 7. It's great to see a mass-market retailer catering to the cyclists and hopefully more people will be encouraged to leave the car at home and hop on a bike instead—we only wish that women's pieces made it into the collection. Catch a video preview below and for more cycling gear, read our Dwell reports story on bikes and accessories here.

Product Description
Product Description
Johnny Guitar [Blu-ray]
"I've never seen a woman who was more like a man," a character observes of Vienna (Joan Crawford), who has just opened a saloon that hasn't exactly endeared itself to the local townspeople. Emma (Mercedes McCambridge), the local sexually repressed, lynch-happy harpy, is particularly displeased. Vienna is wooed both by the Dancin' Kid (Scott Brady) and by Johnny Guitar (Sterling Hayden), a peripatetic tough guy-turned-troubadour with whom she has a past.
When the Kid's gang (which includes Ernest Borgnine) decides to knock over the bank before heading to California, Emma wants just about everyone in sight on the business end of a rope. Nicolas Ray's 1954 epic was considered one of the downright strangest Westerns of all time--the women were far tougher than the men (Johnny watches on laconically during the bank robbery, not bothering with heroics), and some saw in the film a bizarre allegory for the McCarthy Red scare. A half-century later, it's still a curious, intriguing piece of moral ambiguity from a time when such a thing ostensibly didn't exist. Hayden is an enigmatic presence, and Crawford's commanding star turn is what you'd expect. --David Kronke --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

It is perhaps Crawford's best role, she bites into her lines before spitting them out, never blinks and each close-up is so heavily filtered that she is a goddess. How close it is to her actual persona depends on how factual you believe Mommie Dearest to be. When she fiddles with her scarf while the men strut trying futilely to draw her attention away from a mirror, or leaks a tragic tear, it is sheer camp diva bliss.
Panned on release in 1955 - except in France where it was declared a masterpiece and Francois Truffaut called it, "the Beauty and the Beast of westerns" - it has grown in stature over the years to become a revered cult camp classic. Roger Ebert summed it up best when proclaiming Johnny Guitar one of the all time "great movies,"
Full review of Johnny Guitar at: http://drewrowsome.blogspot.ca/2015/05/johnny-guitar-when-camp-becomes-art.html
...This BR release is fine and I received it quickly and well packaged.
this film. But lovers of true cult should have their heads examined
for not having this film in thier collection. Ground breaking in so
many ways. This film not only predicted the feminist movement by a
mile it also plays on the communist themed witch-hunt if you really
want to read into it. Dispite it's title, Joan Crawford plays lead
it this stagebrush saga of two desparate women trying to hold on to
the only man who meant something in their lives. And what a cast of
stars! Sterling Hayden as Johnny, Ward Bond, Ernest Borgnine, Scott
Brady and of course Mercedes McCambridge as the "other woman" and I must say Technicolor never looked better in a western,I counted
at least six shades of red in Crawford's lipstick alone. I'm not
talking "The searchers" or anyhthing but its just a great obcure
film to sit back and relax with. So where's the DVD already?
On the surface you have title character "Johnny Guitar"---onetime ace gunfighter, now laconic loner and wanderer who has renounced his violent past and refuses to wear his guns. He looks up an old saloon-girl love (Joan Crawford as "Vienna") only to discover a town in turmoil---both his gal and the General Good need defending...
You might think you see what's coming: Johnny, after agonized moral deliberation, straps on his guns again and rights the prevalent wrongs, possibly with the help of his lady-friend, who's ambivalent about his violent past... A la "High Noon", et al.
But NO... Which is what makes this movie such an interesting, important milestone in the Western genre. Johnny G's role in the proceedings is almost immediately negligible; he hangs around the saloon and watches his past amour Vienna first boss around her employees, then confront the angry lynch-mob that stomps in, then placate the bunch of alleged outlaws who drunkenly seek refuge from a sandstorm and proceed to tussle with the already-assembled law folk... Vienna vanquishes all foes, with Johnny making smart remarks, but doing little else, throughout. Even after the law leaves and Johnny brawls with a gang-member, all of his action is off-camera---while we see Vienna parry verbally with one outlaw inside the saloon, we hear the sounds of scuffling outside, then witness the defeated bad guy come stumbling through the swinging doors. (Now WHEN has a Western EVER deprived us of a good old-fashioned street-brawl?? Aside from gunfights, that's the next best excuse for action.)
Johnny and Vienna DO kiss and make up, of course.Read more ›
JOHNNY GUITAR certainly represents one of the most important Hollywood westerns, recognised at the time of its initial release by critics throughout Europe.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
A menacing cloud hangs over the eighth adventure of 19th-century archeologists Amelia Peabody and her husband, Radcliffe Emerson (seen before in The Snake, the Crocodile and the Dog). Unfortunately, the cloud rains suspense only in the book's final quarter, long after the warning of a dire threat has paled. In Cairo, Amelia and Emerson are visited by a mysterious man who shows them a scarab ring and claims that it is the symbol of the High Priest of Queen Tetisheri, whom he has sworn to protect. He offers to lead them to her tomb, thereby passing his "sacred duty" onto Emerson. But after the man acts as if he's poisoned and then vanishes, the couple dismiss his words. They are soon reminded of his visit when a notorious antiquities dealer, whom they liken to a hippopotamus because of his girth, warns them to watch whom they trust. With their preteen son, Ramses, and their ward, Nefret, the family travels to western Thebes in search of Tetisheri's tomb. There, after a series of minor mishaps, Ramses is abducted, requiring Amelia and Emerson to begin what seems a nearly impossible task to get him back. The melodramatic 19th-century writing style studded with Amelia's sly wit makes this series unique to the subgenre of historical mysteries. Major ad/promo.

From Library Journal
A masked stranger pinpoints the location of an Egyptian queen's lost tomb for Amelia and husband Emerson and then disappears. The pair set off in search of queen Tetisheri's tomb, encountering all the usual amusing situations, disguises, villains, and murderers. A necessary purchase.

Whenever the plot of "The Hippopotamus Pool" showed signs of picking up, things would go flat again. The Emersons are contacted by a mysterious stranger . . . and nothing happens. They travel to Luxor . . . and nothing happens. They discover the tomb . . . and nothing happens. Between her (I think increasingly odd) determination to have no discovery made by the Emersons impact on the real history of Egyptology and her desire to flesh out what is less and less a mystery series than a family saga, Peters in this book loses the sense of direction and fun that characterised previous books in this series. And as for the ending . . . No-one could possibly have figured it out, and that violates the unofficial contract between mystery writer and mystery reader.
So why the two stars? The journey did have its good points. It wasn't till I'd finished that I realised I felt cheated by this book.
And what...is the Hippopotamus Pool anyway? Am I missing something?
Finally we find out that lil Ramses is not perfect and gets himself captured by a very obese villian. This book introduces David, Abdullah's grandson, an abused artist working for a man who sells fake antiquities.
Amelia and Emerson are their usual self, with witty repartee, romance and love for egypt. One of my favorite parts of the book was when Emerson asks Amelia to dance. and if y'all are as devoted as i am to the series, then u know how much he sacrificed to dance!
Kevin O'Connell shows his little jurnalistic face, again. YIPPEE! i just love that red-haired Irishman...
Nefret is showing promise as a member of the Emersons. She and Ramses seem to never get along, but Amelia and I can see how much they love each other, in more than a brother-sister way.
if u havent read any of the books before hippopotamus pool, i suggest u do, or else u dont get that joy of growing up w/ Ramses... or, heck, Amelia and Radcliffe!
I can't wait for "Seeing a Large Cat"... i hear Ramses is 16 and "to die for"
Blessed Be!
In this mystery Amelia, husband Radcliffe, Ramses, and Nefret make their annual sojourn to Egypt for the archaeological season. Once in Luxor their archaeological plans and the machinations of the tomb-robbers and thieves of Egypt collide at the newly discovered tomb of Queen Tetisheri. The Emersons' excavation of Tetisheri's tomb is strikingly similar to real-life archaeologist Howard Carter's discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, but of course that is not the point. The point is who will get to the royal coffin first: the Emersons? or the criminal world of Egypt?

Why on earth would someone want to bike around the bomb? Wouldn't that be depressing? And dangerous?
Actually our nuclear industry is the dangerous event and it has been operating for over 70 years. Bravo to Global Zero for raising awareness with the younger set. The gray haired activists, hibakusha, downwinders and Marshallese were beginning to feel as if we would all die off before we could eliminate nukes.
There is value in creating a way to experience the scope of absolute destruction that would occur in YOUR city if a relatively small nuclear warhead were to be dropped on it. Bike Around the Bomb held its fifth annual event on the anniversary of the bombing of Nagasaki. Eugene hosted one of 26 events in five countries – its first annual.
How does an event that occurred 70 years ago in Japan relate to Eugene? Let me count the ways:
- The plutonium that was used in the Nagasaki bomb was created in the Pacific Northwest at Hanford Nuclear Site on the banks of the Columbia in Washington.
- Eugene, much like Nagasaki, is surrounded by mountains. The mountains of Nagasaki limited the total area of destruction causing the force to bounce back on the city.
- Eugene, much like Nagasaki, has rivers running through it. Those who survived the initial blast and were able, dragged themselves to the river trying to cool the horrific burns.
- Eugene, and most all cities, has churches, schools, markets, playgrounds, businesses, homes and many, many people. Just like Nagasaki.
- Eugene has a mayor who is a member of Mayors for Peace, just like Hiroshima and Nagasaki where the organization was founded on the belief that cities should not be targets.
It is time to retire the world's arsenal of more than 17,000 nuclear warheads. Seventy years is long enough to hold the world hostage to nuclear threat.

Skip to comments.Request for advice from Freepers that moved to Texas, fellow FReeper considering it.
Posted on 02/09/2010 1:10:32 PM PST by erod
Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could give a fellow conservative some advice on moving to Texas. I am currently living in Chicago, and I am fed up with the taxes, cold weather, Democratic culture and bad economy here. I am seriously considering a move to Texas, I am fairly young, 26, and I am almost done with my degree in marketing, although I currently posses a B.A. in journalism. I think Texas sounds really cool and I just wanted to get advice from fellow FReepers who have either made the move from other states to Texas or FReepers who currently live there.
Some of my questions are: 1. Do you like Texas better than your former state or why do you think Texas is second to none? 2. Out of the two cities there: Dallas and Houston, which one is the better one to live in? (Basically I want the city that least resembles Chicago, but is fun to live in and doesnt end up costing me an arm and a leg in rent and taxes) 3. Hows the economic climate in Texas? I know were in the midst of a recession but whats the unemployment rate etc.
Those are just some sample questions feel free to tell me about your move or whatever other advice you can give if you can. Thanks for responding to my thread, God Bless. -Eric
Padner... we're gonna need to see some ID and your voting record before you get any big ideas of moseying down to the Republic of Texas.
I'm in the same boat, thanks for posting this...BTTT!
Vote Medina
Other than the Houston livestock and Rodeo the city is a waste of land.
Austin and San Antonio, New Braunfuls, are wonderful.
El Paso is also a pit.
I do not live there but have been to both cities. I prefer Dallas area. If you drive a few miles to Fort Worth, the people there do not think people in Dallas are real Texans.
Make sure to vote 8 times before you move...
Nonsense. We have the coast, boating, sailing and beaches. Don't make me whoop ya one!
Climate is good, and people are fabulous.
if you can afford to live in the better parts of either city you should do it. That said the bad part of Houston is worse than the bad part of Dallas. There are more "ok" areas around dallas that you could commute to work from.
I hope you are bigger than an erod. Things are big in Texas.
Lived here all my life, apart from 20 months and 3 days in Los Angeles, and got back as soon as I could. Yes, I love it here and wouldn't live anywhere else.
Lived in both Houston and Dallas. Depends on what you think is fun. Houston has it all over Dallas in cultural and performing arts. Dallas is a sports town. But you'll find the yee-haw/dancing/club stuff in both cities.
Have you looked into Austin or San Antonio? You're young enough to get a kick out of Austin, and we need Freepers there.
I now live in the suburbs between Dallas and Ft. Worth. As long as you stay out of Dallas proper or south Dallas, you'll probably be fine. There are lots of great little suburbs and small towns close enough to DFW to enjoy the city's amenities without actually having to deal with the corrupt morons who run Dallas. If you're looking to go where the jobs and money are, look just north of Dallas, to the Richardson-Plano-McKinney area.
I agree, if you are not a conservative voter, stay away!!!lol. I was born and raised in Texas. Born in Lubbock, lived in Denton and moved to Frisco, Texas where we raise our boys. Love it here!!!!!! There is no better place than Texas. I guarantee you will love it here.
1. Best business climate in the US
2. See number one
You would deny a new Texas resident the thrill of a hurricane evacuation?
Houston = humid as all get out, isn't it?
I do not live in Texas but have been there many times for training with the Air Force. I am a big fan of San Antonio, the riverwalk is beautiful. I also have been to Fort Worth a few times and have to say that I would probably move there if I were going to move to Texas. Downtown Fort Worth is very clean and there are many things to do. TCU is close so it is young and vibrant. Fort Worth also has the Stockyard area where you can eat a steak, drink some beer and watch cattle as they are driven through the street.( only in Texas)
I've been offered the opportunity to transfer out of Texas many times (ironically, one of the places was just outside of Chicago- Schaumburg) but I can't leave Texas. Not only is it not cost effective (I was offered over 50% increase in pay to move to Schaumburg and I still feel I would not have broken even with the higher cost of living, house prices, and taxes).
Depending on where you live, the cost of living can be much lower. Most of Texas the economic climate is great, we haven't really been hit by the recession very hard.
Regarding taxes, we have the second lowest per-capita tax rate in the country (that includes property tax) so that is a big plus.
I would vote for Dallas to live in myself, but I'm sure many others would disagree. The people are nicer and the traffic is much better.
I love Texas much more than my birth state. Once you get Texas on you you can't get rid of it. It becomes part of your soul....DALLAS DALLAS DALLAS hands down, DALLAS. The weather in H-town is horrid, and the politics is much wose than Dallas. Our economy has be fairly stable with slight impact to housing prices, but more so to the job market. You can't go wrong moving to Dallas, or the DFW area...
Can't believe you fell for the Paultard amateur.
While I don't quite fit your profile (I'm a native Texan), I urge you to consider Austin. Dallas and Houston are just too big and fast, while Austin enjoys a more convivial culture than either of those two.
Full disclosure, I was born and raised in Ft. Worth (possibly too podunk for you, but they have surprisingly good museums) and I did live in Plano, which you can hardly distinguish from N. Dallas anymore. Also, I lived in San Diego for 9 years and loved it; now reside outside of Austin.
All I know is that unemployment is presently less bad in Texas than most other places.
I can't believe you think an amateur could do any worse than the two RINO idiots. I'd take the average drunk form the county jail over another flip flopping RINO
Don't tell him about the mosquitoes.
The three big cities in Texas are blue: Austin, Dallas, Houston. The suburbs are red, so Plano/Richardson for Dallas, Woodlands/Sugarland for Houston.
Austin needs to be nuked.
El Paso is a liberal dump in a New Mexico sort of way, as I should know, being a New Mexican.
San Antonio is liberal, but in a Hispanic sort of way with good surrounding towns.
For a city of any size that is conservative, it would be Ft. Worth, then Midland, then Abiliene (the last two being smallish, but rich).
The economy is fine (about 5% unemployment) in Midland.
You will get about 500% more house in Texas (anywhere but Austin or University Park/Highland Park in Dallas or River Oaks in Houston) than Chicago.
Coming from NY state thats a no brainer. Been here in DFW area since '83. Although hot here in summers I like it here. Was able to allocate a lot more toward retirement savings than if living back in NY where the taxes and overpriced cost of living would have taken more and left me with less.
You also have a lesbian mayor in Houston pushing a socialist agenda worthy of San Fransico.
But whatever you do, stay out of Garland. Nothing good can ever come from you entering that city.
I don't live in Texas, but I travel to Texas a lot. I agree with GoCards about Frisco. It is a heck of a fast growing area, just about the perfect distance from DFW.
If you are a cyclist, one of the best velodromes in the country is in Frisco.
I have been in Texas over 30 years, since moving here from Michigan, where I was born, grew up, and went to college. I would as soon stay in Texas the rest of my life.
As to Houston vs. Dallas, I now live in the Houston area, but spent abvout 8 years in the vicinity of the DFW Metroplex. My preference is Houston, but DFW is a fine place to live, too. It's about six of one vs. half-a-dozen of the other. If you are into boating choose Houston.
Property values are generally a push, too. However, Houston *may* have an edge — if you have a steady job already lined up. Why? Because JSC, in SE Houston is set to lay off about 10,000 people — mostly engineers and professionals — thanks to the cancellation of the Shuttle and Constellation programs. That means houses in the Clear Lake area will be cheap, as many will relocate. OTOH, if you plan to come down and look around for a job, you will soon be competing with 10,000 rocket scientists. Hungry rocket scientists. YMMV.
10 years ago we moved from the San Francisco Bay Area to Arlington, TX. Within 3 months I knew more people in my neighborhood than I did in 10 years in the Bay Area. I am retired, my wife retired last year and we set down and talked about, "ok, what now?" We decided to stay here because we couldn't come up with someplace that we would rather live. The cost of living is such that we do pretty good on our retirement income plus it was easy to put down roots and make friends. All in all we really like it here.
Did I mention that the TX Constitution prohibits a state income tax and that we reserve the right to split into 5 states at the slightest provocation?
I would move to the San Antonio area.
Do you have to remind me!!!!!
If you have to move to Houston, look at The Woodlands.
If you have to move to Texas, check around Grapevine and Lewisville.
I've been told the people in Houston think they're Southerners, while the folks in Dallas call themselves Westerners. Maybe that says something.
lol I'm 6'4, 220 and erod is short for my name Eric Rodriguez. ;)
Don't worry I'm a dyed in the wool conservative, no Chicago politics here. ;)
President Sam Houston's last words say it all, "Texas. Texas, Margaret."
Dude, what you said. I got a house inside the loop in Ho-town for the price of a parking spot in my native N. CA.
President Sam Houston's last words say it all, "Texas. Texas, Margaret."
Well, to be fair, here in East Texas we saw snow this year before Chicago did (by one day).
My main problem with Perry, and it is a big one, is if he wins, he will run for Prez in 2012, adding one more well funded RINO for the conservative candidates(s) to overcome.
Mark my words.
I moved from New Orleans to Dallas...best move I ever made.
. Do you like Texas better than your former state or why do you think Texas is second to none?
I left New Orleans BEFORE Katrina and it was still a pile of steaming stool living there..but its a nice place to visit. In Texas the schools are better, economy, jobs, housing is cheaper, people are happier....and the sun shines brighter.
2. Out of the two cities there: Dallas and Houston, which one is the better one to live in?
Dallas has major sports teams and a ton of things to do...lots of places to eat. You are not going to find the old rustic city in big "D"...it's a shimmering jewel of a city. Houston...really depends on where you live...
3. Hows the economic climate in Texas? I know were in the midst of a recession but whats the unemployment rate etc.
Texas has created more jobs during this recession than any other state by far. When I moved from New Orleans to Dallas, I got a $20k increase in pay but my living expenses went down. Property tax was the one bill that was dramatically higher...but the schools are much better so I figure my money is being better spent.
Since you are so young, you may want to check out Addison which is where all the young piss ants go to have fun. In my opinion, Dallas has more to offer than does Houston which is why I picked it...however....I have a family with teens...a much different demographic than you.
I would avoid San Antonio unless you like traffic. It's a beautiful city...you just can't get anywhere any time soon.
My wife is from Lubbock...if you like dirt, you'll love it there...
Katy, a burb of houston is pretty sweet...
But to me, there is no place like Dallas (Actually Plano, Frisco, Carrollton, Addison). Those are the burbs to the north. Plano has the highest income per capita in the nation.
Lastly....Cowboys, Mavericks, Rangers, Stars, and a soccer team that plays somewhere around here....lol.
I live in Houston, which is the 4th largest city in the U.S., after Chicago. One thing you might like about Houston is its proximity to other places. Galveston and other beach cities are a short drive away. you can even hop over to New Orleans if you're of a mind.
Texas is a huge-ass state, and Dallas is a long way off. It's 4 or more hours between the two cities. Neither city is particularly like Chicago. Austin is one of the most liberal cities in the state.
3. The economic climate in Texas is better than much of the country, but still not great.
You will find differing opinions but I would never live in or near Austin, or San Antonio. I have found Dallas/Fort Worth to be much more to my liking, and actually a little east of Dallas. The weather is little better as well.

text: Ebix One software player that's rapidly moving within range of triggering a big breakout trade is Ebix ( EBIX), which provides a series of application software products for the insurance industry ranging from carrier systems, agency systems and exchanges to custom software development for all entities involved in the insurance and financial industries. This stock has been slammed hard by the bears so far in 2013, with shares off by 28%. >>5 Stocks the Hedge Funds Love This Fall If you look at the chart for Ebix, you'll notice that this stock has been uptrending for the last month, with shares moving higher from its low of $9.25 to its intraday high of $11.65 a share. During that uptrend, shares of EBIX have been consistently making higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish technical price action. That move is quickly pushing shares of EBIX within range of trigger a major breakout trade that could push the stock into a massive gap down zone from last June. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in EBIX if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $11.74 to $12 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1.06 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then EBIX will set up to re-fill some of its previous gap down zone from June that started near $20 a share. Some possible upside targets if EBIX gets into that gap with volume are $14 to $16 a share. Traders can look to buy EBIX off any weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below its 50-day at $10.87 a share or around more near-term support at $10.39 a share. One can also buy EBIX off strength once it takes out those breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits a comfortable percentage from your entry point. Prev 3 of 6 Next

Written by a team of eminent historians, these essays explore how ten twentieth-century intellectuals and social reformers sought to adapt such familiar Victorian values as 'civilisation', 'domesticity', 'conscience' and 'improvement' to modern conditions of democracy, feminism and mass culture. Covering such figures as J.M. Keynes, E.M. Forster and Lord Reith of the BBC, these interdisciplinary studies scrutinize the children of the Victorians at a time when their private assumptions and public positions were under increasing strain in a rapidly changing world. After the Victorians is written in honour of the late Professor John Clive of Harvard, and uses, as he did, the method of biography to connnect the public and private lives of the generations who came after the Victorians.
