Tightening bolts on the base of a toilet is the one thing about toilet installation that has me the most nervous. They say not to over-tighten, but how tight is too tight before the porcelain is subject to cracking? Do I tighten until I can't tighten anymore? Do I tighten it just before I think it's at its tightest?
I start by hand tightening as much as I can, then I tighten a little on each side and check if the toilet moves. If it does then I tighten a bit more, check and repeat until there's no movement. You're trying to avoid bowl movement, so that it doesn't shift or fall over, not to hold the floor up by the toilet bolts.
As tight as you can go will probably snap the porcelain (with a good socket you can torque a nut onto a bolt quite a bit). Until you think it's about to snap is just guessing.
Snug. No movement. Enjoy.
"Too tight" is a sixteenth of a turn past where the porcelain snaps :-)
One thing that will help prevent the porcelain cracking is to use a rubber or plastic washer between the head of the bolt and the bowl.
This will take some of the "excess" force by deforming slightly, and by checking for the washer deforming as you tighten you'll have an extra visual check that you've applied enough force.
My grandfather was a master plumber for more than 50 years. I asked him one time how tight to make a sink faucet shutoff valve connection. His answer is a classic ... "Tight enough so it don't leak". There is a lot of wisdom in this. The answer for the toilet is the same thing, not too tight but tight enough.
Whatever length wrench you're using, choke up on the handle all the way.
"Too tight" begins once you start deforming the washer.
Once you do start to deform the washer, you have to toss the, "hand tighten, then 1/4 turn with a wrench," out the window (not that I've ever found that sentiment to be satisfactory). I've never cracked a toilet by over tightening its bolts. The washers that come with a bolt kit are intentionally flimsy.
If there's a word for the day, it's : snug (for which you either need years of experience, or one cracked toilet, to know when to say when).
My preferred finishing touch is, once it's sung, grout it in place (keeps hair from getting stuck in the grove, and other yuckiness) and then I guarantee, it will not rock. My preferred tool, is my little six inch adjustable wrench. I don't choke up on it, but I know when to say when.

Mental Arithmetic Test19 September 2003
It's a Friday, so here's a quick test. Answer each question as fast as possible and say your answers out loud. Then scroll down the page. Ready? Here goes…
1) What's 2 + 3?
2) What's 4 + 5?
3) What's 5 – 2?
4) What's 6 + 5?
5) Name a vegetable.
[scroll down…]
What was your answer for question 5? Was it 'carrot'? It probably was. Apparently up to 90 % of people will answer 'carrot'
No-one knows why though a medic friend says it's because the part of the brain that processes mental arithmetic is the same (or closely linked to) the part that recognises the colour orange.
But – and here's the interesting bit – carrots in the wild are actually purple. The only reason why carrots are orange, according to the World Carrot Museum (my new favourite site), is that Dutch farmers bred a mutant orange version in a patriotic commemoration of the Dutch royal house.
So there you go. A dinner party trick and some interesting info in one handy blog-sized portion. What more could you want?

TAMPA, Fla. - The Republican National Convention is finally in full-throated roar, cheering presidential nominee Mitt Romney's name at every turn in a long-sought show of unity and mocking the man he is out to defeat in November.
TAMPA, Fla. - For the thousands of Republican convention-goers who've been cooling their heels in Tampa, the party is finally on.
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Mitt Romney's Republican National Convention was sputtering to life Monday with the lonely banging of a gavel in a mostly empty hall. It will hit full speed on Tuesday, just as forecasters say Tropical Storm Isaac could reach hurricane strength and make landfall somewhere between Mississippi and New Orleans.
TAMPA, Fla. — Mitt Romney's Republican National Convention sputters to life with the lonely banging of a gavel in a mostly empty hall, hardly the opening splash intended for the nation. With a sprawling and strengthening storm bearing down on the region, the party hastily rewrote the convention script to present the extravaganza's prime rituals and headline speakers later in the week — Tropical Storm Isaac willing.

"I like the top part of this design where I typed my nephew's and niece's nicknames, it becomes the focal part of the sticker. I ordered two labels, one pink for my niece and one blue for my nephew. The colors stand out and I wasn't disappointed with it. I like the shade of each and the simplicity of the font. Also, the delivery is fast! It was scheduled to arrive on 05/28 but I got it today, 05/22. Awesome!"
"I picked this design for a winter shower because of the brown. It's almost like a rustic brown (not grey) in color as described for some reason. The fun colors in the baby girl are all the colors being used in the shower. Can't wait for Savannah's arrival!"
"We used our pet picture with this design. We used the Sephia setting. It came out like a professional photo. Quality is great for the price. We bought other designs with picture to go with the upcoming holidays. We will be a returning customer."
"If you are getting the matching card, DO get these return address labels. We found a cute picture of our baby girl sleeping and it fit perfectly in the bubble. Such a nice way to complete your invites/cards and gives it that extra final touch. I'm so glad we spent a bit more on the labels.... everyone commented on them!"
"Well, this was the only one I didn't get in the mail. I calle customer service and they were incredibly kind and said the would reprint and send to me. I think they even sent this thing fed ex to me ! The other lables that were similar were beautiful so I expect thus to be the same."

Furthermore, I think the big raid was a terrible tactical move. The government has played right into the FLDS's fortress mentality rhetoric. They have been exactly the bad guys coming to lay siege to the people of God that the FLDS (and the LDS) have been afraid of since the Utah War, Nauvoo, and back to Jackson County and Kirtland. the FLDS have been expecting this and fearing this, and the government does exactly this. All it will ultimately do is steel the FLDS nerve, reinforce in an incredibly major way that the outside world is coming to get them.
I also find myself feeling a lot more sympathy for the FLDS than I would have thought. I mean, sure, I think Mormonism is a steaming pile of crap, but I was raised Mormon, and it's a deeply embedded part of my identity that doesn't just go away. I may be fully aware that the versions of Missouri and Nauvoo I learned are heavily biased, but they still punch emotional buttons, and this is just a kind of extension of that.
Don't get me wrong–I'm definitely against coercive sexual relationships of any kind. But setting that aside, the idea of a government raid against what are essentially Mormon people sends chills down my spine and leaves me feeling pretty mixed up.]]>
More than likely most of the kids will be returned their mothers and CPS will monitor the situation for the next couple of years. If the kids are not returned it's because there is strong evidence of physical and sexual abuse AND their moms refuse to keep them away from the abusers.]]>
My first gut reaction to all this stuff was, isnt this just the first in an eventual chain of people doing w/e they want and calling it a religious freedom?
It's not that people should be able to commit crimes and call it "religious freedom." It's that the state has to follow certain rules of fairness and evidence — outlined in the Bill of Rights — before taking action against people, even those suspected of serious crimes. The FLDS aren't necessarily virtuous or innocent (in fact they probably are far from it). The point is that it's not only the FLDS who need to obey the law: the law-enforcement authorities need to obey the law too.]]>
A representative of the ACLU of Texas is in San Angelo observing the custody hearings currently underway concerning the children of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints (FDLS), in front of Judge Barbara Walthers of the 51st District Court. The hearings are part of a standard fourteen-day process mandated by the Texas Family Code, at the conclusion of which the court must return a removed child to the custody of his or her parents unless the government provides sufficient evidence that the child's physical health or safety is in danger and, despite the government's reasonable efforts to enable the child to return home, there is substantial risk of continuing danger if the child is returned.
Although the custody hearing is continuing, based on the testimony we have heard, we believe the government's efforts to protect the children of the FLDS in Eldorado and the continuing proceedings raise serious and difficult issues regarding the sometimes competing rights of children and their parents.
ACLU of Texas Observing FLDS Custody Hearings in San Angelo]]>
The fact that this is a dangerous precedent — taking all of the children from a community with some accusations of abuse — should be obvious. And it's a precedent that would be impossible to apply fairly, if only for logistical reasons…]]>
I viewed the video exposing the Texas Foster Care system as drug-riddled horror at:

"Been here all week. Conditions are decent in the morning and slushy by the afternoon. It's not too bad if you stay off the main mountain, though some of the runs are kind of rutted. They are doing a good job of grooming and spreading the snow out, but it's definitely warm spring skiing. Resort is pretty empty."
"Hey does anyone have a recent honest report I am thinking of going skiing but not sure if I should "
"Rode in a sweatshirt today, definitely hasn't snowed in a month- but the groomed runs are still fun! Had the whole mountain, lodge & parking lot to ourselves- worth a trip if you don't mind spring snow!"

A table of contents featuring our coverage from the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con.
A report from Comic-Con 2016 on the various ways to celebrate the 50th anniversary of "Star Trek."
To begin with a story: Our grandson Taylor was deeply immersed in a video game on his laptop. I began to watch "The Thief of Bagdad" on DVD. At first he ignored it. Then I saw him glancing at the screen. Then he closed the laptop and watched full time. During the spider sequence, only his eyes were visible above the neck of his T-shirt. "That was a good movie!" he told me. "What did Taylor say when he found out it was almost 70 years old?" his mother, Sonia, asked me. "I didn't tell him," I said.
This 1940 movie is one of the great entertainments. It lifts up the heart. An early Technicolor movie, it employs colors gladly and with boldness, using costumes to introduce a rainbow. It has adventure, romance, song, a Miklos Rozsa score that one critic said is "a symphony accompanied by a movie." It had several directors; as producer, Alexander Korda leaped from one horse to another in midstream. But it maintains a consistent spirit, and that spirit is one of headlong joy in storytelling.
The story is loosely borrowed from Douglas Fairbanks Sr.'s "The Thief of Bagdad" (1924), itself a great film. Fairbanks Jr. told me it was his father's favorite. One major change is crucial: In the silent film, the thief and the romantic lead were one and the same, played by Fairbanks. In the 1940 film, they are made into two characters. The thief, Abu, is played by the Indian child star Sabu, then about 15. The king, Ahmad, is played by John Justin with a Fairbanksian mustache. This is an invaluable change, for both dramatic purposes and practical ones: The silent character needs no one to talk to. The 1940 characters become allies drawn from the top and bottom of society, making Sabu essentially the star of the film, although he doesn't receive top billing. The most compelling character, as he should be, is the villain Jaffar, played by the German emigre Conrad Veidt with hypnotic eyes and a cruel laugh. The beautiful, passive heroine, a princess desired by both men, is played by June Duprez.
The story in my mind moves from one spectacular special-effects sequence to another: the Sultan's mechanical toy collection. The flying horse. The storm at sea. The goddess with six arms. The towering genie released from a bottle. Abu's assault on the temple that contains the All-Seeing Eye. His climb up a mountainous statue. The battle with the gigantic spider. The flying carpet.
Half of the shots in "Citizen Kane" used special effects, according to Robert Carringer, who wrote a book on the film. There is rarely a shot in "The Thief of Bagdad" without them. The film was a breakthrough in technique and vision, influential in shaping the entire genre. There are few effects in "Star Wars" (1977) that cannot be found in "Thief." Some of them, such as blue screen, were still being perfected. Other effects, such as matte paintings, had been in use for years.
The Criterion DVD offers interviews with three effects experts, including Ray Harryhausen, who discuss the film's techniques. It is especially eye-opening to see stills revealing the "hanging matte" technique, which creates a background or completes a composition by suspending a matte painting in front of the camera. The camera's 2-D eye is fooled by the painting into making us see foreground as background. Other techniques are simplicity itself: The genie is made to tower over Abu by using an optical printer to combine a shot of the genie (Rex Ingram) close to the camera, and Abu hundreds of feet away. Both are filmed from a static camera on the same beach.
The use of blue screen may seem primitive compared to today's computer-generated animation, but it has the advantage of using real-world subjects. The flying horse, for example, is a real horse, with a real actor mounted on it. The flying carpet is a real carpet, with Abu standing on it. Both the genie and the thief seem real in all of their shots, because they are.
The point here is that all of the effects, supervised by the wizard Lawrence W. Butler, are used to further and deepen the story. Consider the remarkable beauty of several scenes showing magnificent cities climbing hills in the background. The cities may be tinted peach or blue, which makes them all the more fantastical. They are all mattes.
Once on a visit to the Disney Studios, I met the famous matte artist Peter Ellenshaw, who was a young assistant artist on "Thief." He told me how his paintings used not only a forced perspective , but such devices as deliberate blurring to create the illusion of depth. When two lovers are standing in a balcony in front of a matte cityscape, it would be a mistake to make the painting in a photo-realistic style. Its indistinct qualities make it seem farther away.
Korda, a Hungarian emigre who had earlier run Britain's Denham Studios, was now an independent, powerful in the Mayer, Selznick or Goldwyn mode. He used his brother Vincent as his art director, his brother Zoltan as a director. The already legendary art director William Cameron Menzies also worked on the film, and is said to have directed some scenes. Together they made a film of breathtaking beauty. It is done so well that it does not date. Never mind that today similar vistas could be painted with CGI. These are so gorgeous that we cannot imagine them being improved.
Korda often employed others from overseas. Veidt (1893-1943) was a famous German silent actor who fled Hitler in 1933, became a British citizen, worked in Hollywood, was a major star. Sabu (1924-63) was born in Mysore, India, and as a boy was a servant for a maharajah. In 1937, he was cast by Robert Flaherty in the title role of the quasi-documentary "Elephant Boy," an international hit. He was signed by Korda, for whom he made "The Drum" (1938), "Thief" and the great success "Jungle Book" (1942). Rex Ingram (1895-1969), the genie, was a well-known African-American stage and screen actor who graduated from Northwestern University. He achieved fame in films like "Green Pastures" and "Cabin in the Sky."
The energy centers on the film are clearly supplied by Sabu and Veidt, as a boy bubbling with enthusiasm and innocent guile and a man steeped in bitterness and cruelty. Both performances are perfectly pitched to the needs of the screenplay. The romance between Duprez and Justin, as the princess and Ahmad, is rather bloodless, centering on abstract vows; their greatest passion is shown in the scene where they're bound to opposite walls, and under sentence of death. The same low-flame romance was mirrored in Disney's "Aladdin" (1992), greatly influenced by both versions of the "Thief," combining Abu and Ahmad as "Aladdin."
Although the film had so many directors (including Michael Powell, two Kordas and Menzies), it seems the work of one vision and that must have been Korda's. It remains one of the greatest of fantasy films, on a level with "The Wizard of Oz." To see either film is to see the cinema incorporating every technical art learned in the 1930s and employing them to create enchanting visions. Today, when dizzying CGI effects, the Queasy-Cam and a frantic editing pace seem to move films closer to video games, witness the beauty of "Thief of Bagdad" and mourn.

OfficeMenu is the ActiveX control for VB that creates instant Microsoft Office XP, Office 2003, and .NET style menus. No coding is required, and a more polished user interface can be achieved in just minutes.
OfficeMenu lets you quickly provide a modern and professional appearance for your applications, and looks just like the menus found in many Microsoft programs. The menu's colors automatically change to match Office's colors exactly for any given windows theme or visual style. No other menu component provides a more authentic emulation of the Office XP and Office 2003 style menus.
OfficeMenu supports the widest variety of image formats of any custom menu control. You can use 32-bit alpha channel icons and PNG images, even on older versions of Windows. Now, you can add icons (up to 48x48 in size) to your menus with stunning translucency and alpha-blended shadows. It also supports GIF, JPG, and bitmaps. Icons can be assigned to all menu items, even those on the menu bar.
Our easy to use icon selection tool lets you quickly assign your icon images to menu items, providing you with a complete preview of what your menu will look like. If you don't want to use the property window to assign the icons at design time, you can load them from disk, or assign them from an StdPicture object at runtime. This makes integration with an ImageList quick and easy.
You have complete control over the appearance of your menus. Our unique font-tagging system lets you apply different styles and colors to individual menu items. You can even create several types of color pickers in your menus. OfficeMenu also supports Unicode text, so you can now include international characters in your menus. Right to left reading support is provided for Arabic, Hebrew, etc...

Hi, I've customised the module to do nearly everything I need but when I went to try it out at my main site it doesn't work properly.
The WP install is in a subdirectory of my site called http://www.mysite.com/events/
This page works fine but the permalinks to the actual events don't. They just take me to the large Calendar page (which works as intended). This goes for event permalinks on the front end, the calendar and also the 'View' button in the admin.
The permalinks have the structure of 'http://www.mysite.com/events/event/johns-event/'.
And my settings are
Events URL slug = 'calendar'
Single Event URL slug = 'event'
Permalink Custom Structure = '/%postname%/'
PHP v5.2.4
WP v3.3.1
The Events Calendar v(2.0.3 / 2.1 - beta from Rob)
And just to note that normal permalinks didn't work either http://www.mysite.com/events/?tribe_events=johns-event
Any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks!

(VENICE, CA) -- In the world of lesbian superstars, few names inspire the kind of reaction that Jesse Capelli elicits. Most commonly compared to Angelina Jolie, the stunning sapphic heartbreaker earned a powerful reputation as the number one lesbian in all of porn that started with her unparalleled work as a Perfect 10 Girl.
She further grew as one of the most popular Penthouse Pets ever shot, and culminated in her rise to being the first contract girl for Jenna Jameson's company Club Jennanot to mention the only ''girls only'' contract performer in that company.
Along the way she captured the hearts of adoring fans, both men and women alike, and was featured in virtually every adult magazine known to man.
In addition to her work in the adult entertainment industry, Jesse Capelli had a recurring role on the television series Battle Dome and appeared mainstream feature films such as Van Wilder and not Another Teen Movie. Then, without warning, the ineffable beauty simply vanished.
This week Rising Star PR proudly announces the official return of the most coveted lesbian performer in the history of adult entertainment. Jesse Capelli has returned, signing with both LA Direct Models this week as well as the fastest growing publicity firm Rising Star PR.
''Jesse and I have been close personal friends for years,'' explains Rising Star founder Devan Cypher. ''I am glad to see her return to doing what she loves after some time off and proud that she chose Acme and I to help her ease back into the spotlight.''
Rising Star Publicist Acme Andersson expresses comparable sentiments at signing such a huge name star.
''Jesse is as articulate and professional as she is captivating,'' offers Acme. ''Very rarely do you meet a girl who is the total package. Jesse is the exception to the rule and we couldn't be prouder to be working with her.''
As for Capelli herself the sexy lesbian pin-up princess couldn't be happier to be returning to the job she loves most.
''I took some time off for school, but I missed it,'' Capelli confesses. ''There are so many beautiful women out there I can't wait to work with. I'm grateful to have Rising Star PR to help guide me back in.''
Jesse Capelli can be found online at her official website http://jessecapelli.com.
She is represented by LA Direct Models. For booking info visit; http://ladirectmodels.com/view.php?ID=365&gender=female
Rising Star PR currently represents Lisa Ann, Adam & Eve contract star Kayden Kross, Vivid Girl Nikki Jayne, Kagney Linn Karter, CJ Wright, Bryn Tyler, Dane Cross, Janet Mason, Kylie Ireland and more. For more info on Rising Star PR or for interviews and representation visit http://risingstarpr.com.
About Rising Star PR:
Founded in 2008, Rising Star PR focuses primarily on creating comprehensive marketing solutions for adult industry stars to reach total media saturation.

Hey, I'm Barry!
Portland, Oregon, United States · Member since September 2010
I'm a kid's cartoonist for a living, best know for my graphic novel "Hereville," about an 11-year-old Orthodox Jewish girl who wants to fight monsters. Usually when I travel, it's related to Hereville - I'm either giving school talks (so much fun!) or appearing at comic book conventions.
As a guest, I think I'm fairly low-maintenance. I do like having a friendly chat in the morning or evening, if you're up for it, but I'm also happy to just go to my room and read a book. I don't drink alcohol and I don't smoke (although it's fine with me if you do).

I thought being concerned about the poor and wanting to help those less fortunate was a good thing. But Sarah Palin criticized the Pontiff for being "kind of liberal" (which she views as a really bad thing) though she didn't specify the offending words and later apologized. And Rush Limbaugh even labeled the Pope's words about capitalism, income inequality and urging world leaders to combat poverty as being "pure Marxism." I guess the lesson for the Pope is don't actually preach what's in the Bible or else some on the right will call you names.
Pope Francis tops fortune magazine's list of the world's 50 greatest leaders.
Noticeably absent from that list, President Barack Obama.
The magazine gave the pope the top spot for electrifying the Catholic Church.

Opioid overdoses are an important public health concern. Concerns about police involvement at overdose events may decrease calls to 911 for emergency medical care thereby increasing the chances than an overdose becomes fatal. To address this concern, Washington State passed a law that provides immunity from drug possession charges and facilitates the availability of take-home-naloxone (the opioid overdose antidote) to bystanders in 2010. To examine the knowledge and opinions regarding opioid overdoses and this new law, police (n = 251) and paramedics (n = 28) in Seattle, WA were surveyed. The majority of police (64 %) and paramedics (89 %) had been at an opioid overdose in the prior year. Few officers (16 %) or paramedics (7 %) were aware of the new law. While arrests at overdose scenes were rare, drugs or paraphernalia were confiscated at 25 % of the most recent overdoses police responded to. Three quarters of officers felt it was important they were at the scene of an overdose to protect medical personnel, and a minority, 34 %, indicated it was important they were present for the purpose of enforcing laws. Police opinions about the immunity and naloxone provisions of the law were split, and we present a summary of the reasons for their opinions. The results of this survey were utilized in public health efforts by the police department which developed a roll call training video shown to all patrol officers. Knowledge of the law was low, and opinions of it were mixed; however, police were concerned about the issue of opioid overdose and willing to implement agency-wide training.

I have revised the patch to add documentation strings to the proposed new interface function ENQUEUE-ANNOTATION and the various helper functions; see below. I am also sending a file that illustrates how to use ENQUEUE-ANNOTATION to send terminal escape sequences through pretty printing without disturbing the layout of the pretty printer. It also contains a simple test that could be useful for the test suite. > (This is normally the kind of thing that I would suggest would live in > a contrib package, which have slightly less rigorous barriers of entry > than core extensions, which have either history or well-established > practice on their side: is that possible in this case?) The support for annotations is based on changes to the four internal pretty printer functions MAYBE-OUTPUT, OUTPUT-LINE, OUTPUT-PARTIAL-LINE, and FORCE-PRETTY-OUTPUT. If the annotations support were put into a contrib package, these four functions would need to be duplicated there, and also the PRETTY-STREAM defstruct would need to be overridden. Basically it would be the same situation as if SLIME used the code to patch the SBCL pretty printer. Because in both cases the code could easily go out of sync with the definitions in the SBCL core, this would be a rather non-robust solution in my opinion.

Even tho I only had this phone for 3 days I already know I love it! This phone has everything you need for a really good price! The camera takes BEAUTIFUL clear pix & you can zoom in up to 4xs! The camcorder is great too it takes nices videos! I love that its a 3G phone & it comes with wifi so it make browsing the web super fast! I love everything about this phone its def. a good deal you can do sooo much on here & trust me im a really hard person to please when it comes to cell phones so if I like it than it must be good :)
I bought this phone for my wife for when she goes out of town, I have been playing with it and learning how
to use it for a few weeks and I LOVE it ! This is our first Android phone and it so much better than I expected.
I got it from Walmart online , I went to the Cricket store here and they wanted $ 20 more for it.
I paid $ 69 dollars for it so I didn't expect too much for the price . . . A friend at work has one of those $ 500
phones with 2 yr contract .. For $ 69 Dollars and NO contract , this phone has almost everything my friends $ 500 phone has .
It was $ 55 for a month with unlimited everything . . .
The only problem with it is CRICKET does not get a good phone signal at my home, but that's ok , it's really just
going to be used when traveling away from here . Everything else works great , texting / internet . .
I also have wi-fi in my home so I can use that for my phone and it's faster !! One other thing , the battery only last for about 5 hrs with constant use, and my friend with the $ 500 phone
says his only last about 2 hrs , another friend with an I-phone says his only last about 2 hrs ...
So I think this one does pretty good ... So I keep the phone plugged in as much as I can, I also have a charger outlet that plugs into the
cig-lighter in the car, which I had for my laptop, and I can plug the phone in to keep it charged. It also has a GPS which really blows me away how well it works, it zooms right in on my house, surrounded by a bunch of other houses . . . I think this is a GREAT phone , and for $ 69 it's an outstanding deal !!! One more thing , I did NOT buy thin Phone for the Music , But I played with the MUVE MUSIC app on the phone
and it will download about any song you like for FREE ... pretty co0L
You can also add FREE apps from the GOOGLE PLAY store FREE...FREE ...FREE I LOVE THE PHONE
Aside from the fact that if used constantly it dies pretty quick. This is an awesome phone. I would recommend getting a really hard case to protect your phone because I accidentally knocked mine off the counter while it was charging and now the screen is completely messed up. And of course I didn't get the protection plan... =( Also if you need unlimited minutes, get the phone from the mycricket website. This is just paygo where the only option you have is the plan right on the outside of the box. The price is the same if purchased online. Waiting for tax return money so I can get a new one. :) Can't wait! So if you're hesitating to buy it, just get it! You won't regret it!!
This phone was a very good price, it comes with earphones and free minutes if u want to do pre paid. you cant get unlimited minutes, the plan for this phone is 1000 min,unlimited text,data and web for $55, u cant get unlimited minutes
I recently bought this phone, and so far it is a great value overall, and use it all the time.My only complaints are the activation system, and the keyboard. The activation was a horrible THREE HOURS. The system was confusing, and long.I have had previous phones wich only took about 15 min. to activate,and was WAY less confusing.The keyboard is okay, once you get used to it.The buttons are kinda too small, for your fingers.It can be agrivating, because you cant use your nail on the screen to press the buttons.If you hold the phone horizontaly, it will become easier to use.For my opinion, I realy do love this phone and is the best one I have had yet.
I love, love, love this phone! Well, your probably wondering why I only gave it 4 stars, because I had first got this phone a week or 2 before christmas and I thought it was the best thing for the price, good camera and video, its an andriod, and a touch screen! You can aslo download apps. It almost reminded me of my friends iPhone! But then came the problems, I switched to wi-fi the one day and BAM!- I couldn't get it back to 3G!- which would have been okay, but that ment I could NOT get into my Muve music, which is were you can download lots of songs for free, and that stinked cause I love listening to music on the go. Then the next problemo was, I could NOT send long texts or pictures or videos through Text, I could send them to facebook, but not text! I was so mad because I am always sending pictures to my friends! I called them and they seemed to fix the wi-fi problem but not the rest. So I called the cricket company again, and let me tell you, there communication with each other is terrible! First I got sent to someone then they said I was in the wrong department then they sent me to another person and once again it was the wrong department then finally I talk to someone, tell them my issues i was having with the phone and BAM!- "Oh we are sorry, but I cannot help you. You must talk to someone else." D:< I was so mad! Then i got transfered again and the lady said that they would call me back in 2-3 days with an answer!! WOW.!!!! and that was about a month ago and I still have no call back, I will be calling them again TOMORROW. But other wise the phone is pretty nice, sleek, not to heavy, not to light, takes nice pics, recordes video good, sends texts fast, muve music is pretty cool. It's a great phone for the price, but some problems as well, I would reccomend this phone to anyone, because don't think that just because I have this problem does not mean you will to. ~Alicia
Spec says: "Memory expansion via microSD card slot with support for optional cards up to 32 GB (4 GB card included)." First, ZTE's tech support claims expandable to 16GB. When I tried putting in 8 and 16GB cards, the phone did not recognize them. And when I tried to format them, will only format as 2GB. Cricket tech support claims that a special dual-partitioned card is required since this phone was made specifically for their "MUVE MUSIC" service, but can't even find me a Cricket Corporate Store where I can buy one, and neither is this special card listed for sale on their website.
Even tho I only had this phone for 1 month I already know I love it! This phone has everything you need for a really good price! The camera takes BEAUTIFUL clear pix & you can zoom in up to 4xs! The camcorder is great too it takes nices videos! I love that its a 3G phone & it comes with wifi so it make browsing the web super fast! I love everything about this phone its def. a good deal you can do sooo much on here & trust me im a really hard person to please when it comes to cell phones so if I like it than it must be good :)
Before buying this cell phone I entered my zip code - 32401. it said I would get good reception here but I do not. One bar some of the time, no bars most of the time. The CRICKET service in this zip code is almost non-existent. I will cancel service. The phone seems fine - except battery life is bad. I have tore-charge every day - even thought I have been unable to use the phone very much - only when near a wire-less router. Customer service is a joke. They have no answer for the issues of bad coverage in this area code.
I got this phone for my teenager. The phone itself is great, the customer service is awful. I paid her monthly prepaid bill, and they charged me twice. They would not refund the money, even though it was their mistake. We live paycheck to paycheck, and I couldn't afford this hit. If you can, then it is a great phone for your teen. If not, beware!
I would not recommend cricket at all!!! First I had a $55.00 plan that was supposed to be unlimited talk and text but in the middle of the moth they decided to change their plans and cut my phone off now all I can do is text. The phone is OK but you can get a phone through straight talk that is almost identical to this one and their plan is only $45.00 unlimited talk and text and it supports their android phone so I would greatly recommend straight talk, also cricket drops calls in alot of areas here where I live that straight talk don't and I can travel with straight talk and it works. Their android is a little bit more money but it's worth it.
Ordered this for my son....he is very happy with performance. Thinking about getting one for me!!
seriously i've had this phone a little over a month the absolute worst phone i've ever head first off the battery only lasts two hours at the most and it cracked after my cat knocked it off my bed which is just a mattress on the floor it takes forever to receive texts and takes almost three days to send a picture or video and the call quality is severe you could make a better call on a banana if you're thinking of getting the phone save your gas it's not worth a gallon of it
I had the phone for 3 months. it started off excellent worked great but after 3rd week phone wiped everything clean. I had to redo everything. after that it was fine for a few days then it happened again. I had to redo everything again. worked great again then a month later it shut off on its own and wouldn't turn back on. I plugged it up to the charger and nothing happened I replaced the battery and it still wouldn't turn on. I treated the phone like a baby and it broke for no reason. Also battery only lasts 2 hours.
it is EXCELLENT
It looks nice, but thats about it. You must have 3+ bars in order to even use any app or get online, which means you can't use the muve app or whatever, only had this phone for 1 full day, and hate it. Will be switching to straight talk! I DO NOT recomend this phone.
This phone was easy enough for my mamaw to use. lol. It takes amazing photos, good vids, good weight (not to heavy not to light), its sleek, and has good sound quality. It was my first android phone and i would NOT trade it for any phone..except maybe an iphone. haha. I am hard to please when it comes to anything..and i absolutely LOVE this phone. Had it for a month and a half.
Sorry it did not work for me it doesnt have service in my area i had to return it i hope theres another device i can use in my area thanks anyways
This phone is overall a good phone.You can set it to lock and no one can open it except you. The down side is i can't seem to recieve any text messages.

Celebrity tattoo artist Amy Nicoletto figures that a good portion of those who attend this weekend's Ink Life Tattoo and Music Festival won't actually be inked themselves.
The festival, opening Friday in the Amarillo Civic Center North Exhibit Hall, tends to attract "all walks of life, actually," Nicoletto said.
"Even people who don't have tattoos, who are scared to get them or what other people will think," she said.
Nicoletto understands. She didn't get her first tattoo until age 18, and then it took another 15 years for her to get a second.
"I never was one to give into peer pressure as a kid," she said. "I don't drink, don't do drugs, never have. But all my friends were at a tattoo shop, and I guess I got the itch."
Now, she doesn't even know how many tats she has, though "honestly, it's not that many for a tattoo artist."
Ragen St. Peter, one of the festival's organizers, probably has more, though he said he's "extremely selective of who tattoos me."
"I've got a lot under my shirt," he said. "I've always been the guy who had to be in the suit.
"Now I'm to the age and to a point where, you know what, I've paid my dues, and if I want a visible tattoo, I'll do a visible tattoo, and if you don't like it, you don't have to do business with me."
Personally, I have no tattoos, and while I don't quite get the draw, I can't deny that my perception of those who do get inked has changed considerably over time.
When I was a kid, tattoos were what old Navy vets like my uncle had. And it took a while to get past that initial perception, to see the artistry and to get over the idea that visible tattoos were somehow worth scorning.
St. Peter attributed that kind of change in attitude to the way tattooing "really has gone mainstream."
"It's a lot more acceptable for people with tasteful tattoos to operate in the world than it used to be," he said. "It really has come a long way."
Nicoletto sees that too, giving credit to shows like the one she used to star on, "LA Ink."
And that acceptance, she said, may lead those non-inked attendees at the festival to bite the bullet themselves.
"They see it's becoming more accepted, so maybe it'll end up with them just going and checking things out, and then maybe even getting a tattoo," she said. "It's the fear of the unknown, but at the same time, if they're really into these TV shows and (people find tattoos) a heck of a lot more acceptable than it was."
Songwriter contest seeks new talent
Amateur songwriters hoping for their break have until Wednesday to enter a new contest in Amarillo.
Tarpley Music will host one of more than 30 contests in six states for The Songwriters, a company looking for new word-slingers around the country.
A local winner will have the chance to advance to a national competition to vie for a grand prize that includes a professionally mastered recording, an offer to sign with a management company and a recording contract.
"You just never know where that genius is," Tarpley store manager Donnie Parker said. "There's lots of great music in this town, lots of great musicians, lots of great bands."
Grammy Award-winning songwriter Brad Davis, a member of The Boxmasters, will pre-screen entries, and his 10 favorites will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 29 at Tarpley, 3800 W. Interstate 40.
Entrants must perform their own songs with no more than two instruments, but Parker said the words are what matter, not the voice.
"This is about the song, not the singer's talent," he said.

By joe gorman
Workers at Animal Charity on Friday were trying to come up with a name for a pit bull/terrier mix found Thursday, abandoned with no food or water for six weeks, in an East Side home.
How about Miracle?
The dog, a female, looked spry Friday as she got some exercise, but the effects of six weeks with no food or water were apparent as her bones stuck out and she favored one of her legs because her ligaments were weak from going so long without nourishment.
Humane Agent Chris Flak said the case is one that rankles him.
"I have to keep an even head," Flak said. "Being in law enforcement for 26 years, this one left me mad. Why would you do that? You just left that dog to die."
Flak was called to a home at 88 Eliot Lane on Thursday by a landlord, who suspected that previous tenants had left the dog behind. They found the dog in a room filled with its own feces.
Flak said he has four suspects in the case and has interviewed some people. One of the owners of the dog has been in the Mahoning County jail in recent weeks and was not there when the other three people — two men and a woman — moved and left the dog there.
If charges are filed, they will be misdemeanors unless the suspects have previous animal-cruelty convictions on their records.
The charges then will be upgraded to felonies, Flak said.
Flak is looking for anyone who may have information on the case. If so, they are asked to call 330-788-1064, ext. 17.
Flak said despite the starvation conditions the dog had endured, she could be a lot worse.
"I'm shocked the dog is as well as it was for not having any water," Flak said.
Flak said he had a hard time getting the dog to come to him because she was so lethargic and also was scared.
He has had a lot of cases of animals being abandoned but not too many as extreme as this one, Flak said. The dog has fleas and worms and will be getting treatments for both, Flak said.
He said the dog is not more than 3 years old and weighs just slightly over 29 pounds. She should weigh 50 pounds, Flak said.
The case was similar to that of another pit-bull mix Flak rescued earlier this fall at a home on the South Side that had its mouth taped shut with duct tape.
That dog has thrived at the shelter and has put his weight back on, Flak said.
The dog has seemed to taken a shine to Flak and was very affectionate to him Friday.
He came up with a name for her, too: Sweetie.
The proper punishment is to lock these people in a cell with no toilet facilities no food or water for the same amount of time. See if you can't understand the words actions will speak louder!!!!
Mr.Flak you sound like a good guy and someone who cares deeply about protecting our animal friends.
I have no idea what kind of a sick despicable sub human would purposely harm a trusting defenseless animal and I hope you're able to press felony charges in these cases.
You have to think if somebody would do such a terrible and cruel thing to any animal what other evil acts are they capable of and when will a human being such as a small child be their next victim
These knuckle draggers are dangerous and need to be caged and off our streets for good !

Regarding the column by AGN Media Director of Commentary Dave Henry (Henry: No Chance? Scouting a home doesn't seem too much to ask, April 12, amarillo.com), I was so disappointed to learn that Brandy Waugh was not allowed to adopt Chance from the Amarillo SPCA simply because he would not be living in a normal home.
I just wonder what Chance's life was like before and what caused him to live at the SPCA shelter? The SPCA sure is getting picky in choosing homes to the thousands of abandoned cats and dogs that need a place to live.

Come on, Amarillo SPCA. Give Chance a chance at a happy life.

"Colt Single Action brings out the feeling of sitting on your back porch, listening to professional players kicking back and picking out country classics, and rock standards.....and their originals really hit you hard! After every song, I feel like I can hear frogs croaking and dogs barking in the distance. I love the way you can just close your eyes, and take a trip back home. This is what music has been missing. Great act to get the crowd going and the alcohol flowing. Must see to appreciate! "
