3:30 am
contractor's jurisdiction and a local officer at a local roadblock does not always know or understand the necessity to get that kind of equipment in there to restore the grid, the water system, for the telecom it is something we are still struggling with and we are working with on a daily basis. >> thank you, mr. brig. >> every exercise i've been involved with, managing information and communication is easily no. 1 or 2 on the list. in the heat of an event, information is flowing in, there's usually no shortage of information rtion it's translating that to something credible that is the challenge. usually 50 percent of that information is wrong and untimely. before a unified command is established and you have various city departments or regional groups that are working together before the unified command has been established, coordinating field work in 4 counties is usually awkward. until that central
3:31 am
message gets pushed down and all the groups are rowing together, the field, when you are dealing with the geegraphy we are dealing with in the bay area, that field coordination is always difficult in the first few hours. >> thank you. mr. angelus. >> verizon wireless, every time we get involved with emergency situations we did a post meeting to analyze what we did and how we can make things better. it also pushes down to the processes and the preparedness and how we can make things better from checking our equipment to our staffing levels and it depends, really, on the situation but we always get something good out of these situations that makes our processes better. >> thank you. i'd like to thank the panel members for taking time out to discuss about lifelines. i want to point out that all of these organizations are members of the san francisco lifelines
3:32 am
council along with many members in the audience, and rest assured we have been working with the fire chief and the police chief with pg&e and the san francisco public utilities commission to make sure we can get them to their emergencies in a timely fashion during rush hour traffic and would like to thank both chiefs who are here today. so thank you. (applause). >> for closing remarks, want to bring up secretary of state george schultz. if you could help on this end. >> that was a great panel. thank you all.
3:33 am
>> well, we've had quite a display. we've had a lot of area planning, filled with op exercises. we had the ocean beach yesterday. the military made something difficult look easy. it was a display of competence. and it gives us confidence that not only is the military going to help us if we have a problem here, but the military is able to do its job of protecting our national security with confidence. it's wonderful to see confidence on display. i was asking myself as i listened to the panel today and i'm working with mike and leslie on the program, what kind of words would describe what we're doing? well, certainly impressive is
3:34 am
one. reassuring is one, that we see what's going on, the planning, the capabilities. i think another is to underline the importance and then this panel in particular they underline t the importance of looking on this as a building operation. each year has been a little better than the year before or different. if that's been iterative or a plus [speaker not understood]. somebody asked if we could keep this going. may i remind you it's been going for 31 years. we've had this last two years that have been the most impressive iteration, but it's been going for a long while. let me try to sort of summarize it by using an image. how many of you have looked closely at the great seal of our republic?
3:35 am
if you look closely you'll see that the center piece is an eagle. the eagle holds an olive branch to show that united states will always seek peace. let me say not only peace, but the united states will always seek solutions to problems. we're a pragmatic people that like to have a problem [speaker not understood] and do something about it. and the other talon the eagle holds arrows to show that the united states understands that if you're going to be successful and effective in seeking peace, you must be strong. and i would say strong, and i'll use that word a little bit more loosely and say competent. you must be able to do things.
3:36 am
so, if you take that image and you have objectives on the one talon and capability on the other, and you marry them together, that's what we in the united states have been doing, particularly since the end of world war ii. then there we were having propelled the three worlds to victory. the other of us having seen we had an aggressive adversary on our hands and looking back what a horrible last century or so, we had to do better. and we did it by this iteration of objectives and capabilities. and we put together what has amounted to a global economic and security commons from which we all have benefited and continue to benefit.
3:37 am
[speaker not understood]. so, we have to keep working at it. and i think the things that have been talked about here are very much in the line of keeping [speaker not understood]. niche a was mentioned this morning. that was a fantastic piece of work by the navy. it turned around the attitudes of niche a toward the united states. it was a the kind of building block we look for in an economic and security commons. just as when we in san francisco see not only what the military can bring to the party and help us with, not only how we can interact with the
3:38 am
military, but also we say to ourselves, it's also up to us to do everything we can for ourselves. we're not kind of an outfit, it's easier for them to collaborate with us. so, all of these things are important to us as we have these exercises. so, i say this is a very worthwhile enterprise that will keep going. i tip my hat to my friend mike who really has been leading us in these efforts. and now i say as also the slogan, i guess you call it this morning, maybe it's what the navy says. i think it's a very good phrase. a global force for good. that's what we've been practicing, a global force for good. thank you. (applause) >> thank you, sir. thank you.
3:39 am
thank you very much, sir. (applause) >> and for all of you, tomorrow we're going to have the former secretary defense william perry speak. and the final speaker tomorrow will be the commander of north com, it will be the first time the northern command... >> ladies and gentlemen, welcome to day two of the senior leader seminar for san francisco fleet week 2012.
3:40 am
we had a great day yesterday and we're going to have an even greater day today. we've got a number of people that i would like to bring up to welcome you all. while this senior leader seminar is going on, there's a number of other activities that are going on at the same time. and a very important activity is some training that's taking place on treasure island. it's training by the san francisco fire department and it's become a huge hit with the marines and the sailors that are able to get this training. with that, i'd like to have our police chief -- fire chief from san francisco, chief hayes white, come forth and talk to you about some of these events and the fire department's role. thank you. >> thank you, thank you very much. thank you, general. good morning, everyone.
3:41 am
welcome to san francisco. this is day two of the senior leaders seminar. i had the opportunity to sit through most of the seminar yesterday. i found it very informative, and would certainly like to again echo our thanks and appreciation to admiral beaman and captain pringle on the beautiful uss macon island. if we could give applause to all the men and women serving on this ship, thank you for your hospitality. (applause) >> this is a week where we highlight and celebrate all the sacrifices that military personnel make. in the san francisco fire department, we work 24/7 shifts. we're considered para military, but we recognize in the military the great sacrifices that you make each and every day to protect our freedom while being away from your homes and your family. so, thank you very much. it's an honor to welcome you to
3:42 am
san francisco. (applause) >> i'd also like to acknowledge the presence of two people that i consider honored to call friends, and they continue to be treasures to san francisco, to our city, to our state, and to our nation. and i was so impressed yesterday that both of them intently sat here yesterday taking it all in. and it was the highlight really i think of the seminar to have the evening closing remarks capped off by former secretary of state george schultz. so, thank you very much, sir, for being here. (applause) >> it is a wonderful partnership that he shares with his wife who is chief of protocol for our city and our state, charlotte schultz. so, thank you very much. (applause) >> certainly this partnership couldn't take place without all of the heavy lifting and hard work done by the san francisco fleet week association. so, thank you to general myatt
3:43 am
for your vision. this is your three of not only the celebration events, but what you spoke to earlier. also the executive director of the fleet week association lewis lubin. thank you very much. (applause) >> i've had the pleasure of serving in the san francisco fire department for 22 years. it will benign years in nine since i stepped up and took the role of chief of the department. i continue to be proud of that. and i can say which i said earlier in the week, the coordination and the collaboration only gets better each year that we do this. and i'd also like to acknowledge the department of emergency management and all of her staff for coordinating so seamlessly with the fleet week association in addition to all of the other events that we have that's going on this week. so, thank you to our department of emergency management. (applause) >> as we discussed, it is so important to not only build relationships, but to strengthen them. and that is exactly what we're
3:44 am
doing here this week. i'm also very proud that the fleet week association has once again included our community partners. as you know, in 1989 there was the loma prieto earthquake. we had many show up and go to work. we realized we were quickly overwhelmed and had limited resources. after loma-prieta was an educational piece to partner with our community. and the fleet week association has invite and had there are so many of them here, i'm very proud of our neighborhood emergency response team training folks that are here today. my hat is off to you because we couldn't do it without your dead gaytion -- dedication and volunteerism. so, thank you to our nert members here today. (applause) >> and i'm so proud to continue to be partnering with our military personnel when it comes to humantarian assistance and disaster relief. i was literally in awe on
3:45 am
wednesday on ocean beach with the landing of the lcac and also to take a look at the capabilities and the resources that we would have available to us in the event of a large-scale emergency. my hat is off to all of you with just how well you've planned, your multitude capabilities, and as secretary schultz said i'll take a note from his confidence of display. to see how you set up in an hour a field hospital to take care of patients, not run of the mill patients, but critically wounded patients. we were so impressed. i think a couple other words the secretary used were impressive and reassuring. that's what it's about, forming partnerships. so, i'm very proud to be not only to be honoring and celebrating our military, but to be partnering once again in cross training. happy to report that a little later today aboard the uss
3:46 am
macon, we're learning the best. firefighting below the deck, members on the flight deck learning about aircraft rescue, firefighting. similarly, and i won't be able to stay the whole day today because soon i'll be headed over to treasure island, a former navy firefighting school, we'll have that facility about 14 years and we'll be welcoming 40 members from the u.s. marine corps, 20 members from the u.s. navy, 10 members the u.s. coast guard, where we will then partner with them and cross train them and use our techniques, reaching technical rescue and high and low rescue being demonstrated in display. we will also be having some of our u.s. navy personnel on ride-alongs with members on our ambulances, fire engines and trucks to continue with our cross training. so, it gives me great pride to be here to continue to serve as the fire chief, to welcome the military, and to say thank you to all of you.
3:47 am
here's to an enjoyable fun-filled busy weekend. all the best, and thank you for your service. (applause) >> i wanted chief to tell you about that training. we first did it in 2010, search and rescue which we knew was a problem in haiti in the earth wake in the recovery. and like they say in san francisco, the fire department, we know how to do it, but when the big earthquake hits, we're all going to be victims and we want to make sure that anybody that potentially could come in to help dig us out knows how to do it. well, we trained some marines and petty officers in 2010 and as fortune would have it, i think u.s. s. reagan was in japan after their earthquake, there were a couple petty officers who had undergone that training were sent ashore in
3:48 am
japan to assist in some of the urban search and rescue training. so, it was real world application. before i bring the next welcomer up, i have some administrative remarks. there are rest rooms here. and today i want to make sure you know it's back behind those screens for people that weren't here yesterday. and, of course, there's coffee there. this is a busy week and a busy weekend, and it's a core i -- choreography with all the ship movements. i can't let it go further without thanking monique moyer for what she and her folks have done to make this such a wonderful fleet week. (applause) >> our next welcomer, and this has really been exciting for me because i didn't think it would happen, but it came last year and he's become a great supporter and he happens to be the supervisor where most of
3:49 am
the activities are taking place in the city. but he's also the president of the board of supervisors. i'd like you to welcome david chiu. (applause) >> glad to have you here. >> glad to be here. good morning. on behalf of the san francisco legislative body, our board of supervisors, i want to welcome you to our city of san francisco. and i first want to also echo what our fire chief just said as far as welcoming all of you who have been serving our country and the world in uniform. i want to thank those of you who helped to run our first responder departments around the bay area. i want to thank those of you who are our volunteers, our note programs here. and of course want to thank and welcome our san francisco secretary of state and the woman who manages and orders around that secretary of state,
3:50 am
charles m. charlotte schultz. (applause) >> now, this week as you know, there is a lot going on here. and in addition to welcoming you here at the scenier leader seminar, i want to tell you we were so excited that the sls would be here that we decided this weekend to also require the americas cup to celebrate -- to require the san francisco giants to have a play off game, the 49ers to play this weekend, the blue grass festival to be here, the parade, as well as the castro sea fair to coincide and welcome you in style. but i wanted to say a few words about the one thing that keeps me up as the head of the legislative body here in san francisco. the reason why i sit with many of our first responders on our city's disaster council, the reason why a few years ago chief white and i led almost a half a billion dollar bond
3:51 am
campaign to rebuild the water, fire, and police infrastructure. about every six months i literally wake up in the middle of the night thinking about what would happen if a disaster struck our city. and i think about this and i think i have these nightmares really for three reasons. one, everyone who lives in san francisco knows that in 1906 we were hit not just by an earthquake, but by an earthquake that led to a fire that burned down literally every single neighborhood in the district that i currently represent in the northeast part of san francisco. another reason why i wake up in the middle of the night, though, has to do with an experience i had 7 years ago in 2005, which i think i might have shared with some of you here on this ship today. in november of 2005 i was asked when i was running a technology company before i joined the board of supervisors to show up at the city of the site of a client.
3:52 am
that city was new orleans. this was a few weeks after hurricane katrina, which we all know will be probably the greatest civil engineering set of blunders that our country has made in our country's history. and what we all learn from hurricane katrina is what happens when we don't have a community that is prepared and a set of relationships that is ready to be hit by the big one. which leads me to the third reason why i wake up at night. the neighborhoods that i represent in the northeast not only represent the oldest neighborhoods in our city, but some of the most vulnerable. we have some of the poorest residents. half of my district are recent immigrants who are mono lingual. i have hundreds of constituents who live in buildings that contain them where they live three, four, five people in a
3:53 am
room that might be no larger than 10 by 15 feet, in buildings that are absolutely prone to earthquake, fire, and the next major disaster. and, so, i was asked to just mention if i had three things that i want you to tell us as your civilian leaders. the first has to do with how to deal with community shock. two nights ago as a couple of you commented, you may be wondering why i have a bandage on my hand and i look like i got into a fight at a bar. i happened to spend a couple hours in one of our city's finest emergency rooms after a minor bike accident. and it is minor, no broken bones, i'm fine. but what is interesting to me in my experience of getting knocked off my bike was that for about an hour or two after the accident, my body was shaking uncontrollably. i was experiencing what i later learned on wikipedia was the phenomenon known as shock. and we know as a community that
3:54 am
when the next disaster hits us, not if, but when, our community will go into shock. in fact, we market this in our local efforts as the 72 hours. the 72 hours that hits any community, when we know that disaster responders are still getting together their infrastructure. and what i want all of you to tell us is what are those best practices that you have been studying and you have been talking about that can help us not just in that first hour, but in that first 72 hours, what is it that i need to be educating our community on during that time period? the second thing i want to ask you is, how our military can better work with our first responders and our civilians. again, not just in that 72 hours, but in the weeks and the months ahead. i participate in many drills with our civilians, with our volunteers and our police and fire departments and our department of emergency management in how to be prepared.
3:55 am
but obviously because of the work that the military does every day, saving the rest of the world, we don't work with you quite so regularly. in a conversation that i had with general maya in recent years is how can we best put to use the thousands of returning veterans that we have here in our midst who already have the training and the experience to take care of the world? how did we put our veterans best to use in taking care of us in a future disaster? the third thing i want to ask of you is to help us think about lessons around recovery. in the wake of new orleans, our city government started looking at how we prepare our self. and one thing we discovered was, as you all know, the relationships that exist on the ground between civilians and between our first responders, really will help to dictate our success in tackling not just our response, but our recovery.
3:56 am
and this is why last year in my district, in the heart of north beach which i hope many of you will have a chance to visit, we set up a coordinating council, and this is a council made up of local residents, neighborhood associations, merchant groups, churches, nonprofit organizations, city officials, and first responders. the task of this local coordinating council was to figure out how do we deal with that first 72 hours and how do we recover? and we've learned an awful lot as we've developed these relationships and how do we avoid the mistakes that were made after hurricane katrina? but what we've also found is that by simply convening these groups, we are preparing ourselves not just for what happens after a disaster, but we are literally building our community today. with this coordinating council, we're figuring out how to fix the potholes, how to deal with the literally million people who are going to descend on our
3:57 am
neighborhood this weekend, how to take care of the needs that we have, not just in the future after the big one, but today in 2012. and by bringing us together today, by tackling and talking about the problems we'll deal with tomorrow, we're actually achieving many things here at this moment in october. and, so, i want to ask you to think about how it is that you can help us to build these infrastructures, how you can help us to build community so that we're keeping ourselves safe today, this month, this year, and for many, many years to come. so, with that, again, i want to thank you for being here. and we as a civilian leadership of the city and county of san francisco look forward to hosting hopefully many seminars like this into the future so we can all work together to keep our city, our state, our country, and our world much safer. thank you for being here. (applause)
3:58 am
>> thank you, supervisor chiu. on wednesday we had an lcac or big hover craft land across ocean beach. that would have not been possible without the cooperation of the park service. i would like to introduce frank dean, he's the general superintendent of the golden gate recreational area and these going to talk for a few minutes about these marvelous parks that we have in the area that much of what is being occupied by fleet week. mr. dean. (applause) >> thank you, appreciate it. well, good morning. i'm so pleased to see fleet week continue to expand and evolve and include leadership seminars such as this and the opportunity to network with our colleagues and each other on search and rescue and public safety.
3:59 am
it's just a great addition to the already exciting opportunity to see the navy and our armed forces at work. some of you may be wondering exactly why am i here, what's a ranger doing up here during fleet week. i'll try to explain that a little bit. this is our 40th anniversary of having a national park in san francisco. so, those strikev lands at the golden gate hills right behind that helicopter there are now part of the golden gate national parks. and that happened 40 years ago when the army decided that those lands were no longer necessary for national defense. so, that strategic entrance to this harbor was the last land that our troops and sailors and marines and soldiers would see if they departed for the pacific theater in world war ii and korea and vietnam, and also the first thing they would see upon returning back to the bay area.

In the latest twist in the abuse of communications technology, consumers are receiving illegal marketing calls coming from what appears to be their own telephone number.
Across the country, Better Business Bureau is being inundated with calls from harried consumers who are confused and annoyed by the calls, which are often dialed by computerized calling centers.
Here is how the scam works: Your phone rings, the number looks familiar. You answer, and a computerized voice claims to have methods to lower your credit card interest rates, which of course, means they require a credit card number. In some cases, consumers are offered the opportunity to supposedly opt-out of future calls by pressing "1." That is almost a guarantee that they will receive more such calls.
The practice of faking the number of an incoming telephone call is known as "spoofing," and its use is growing among criminals who also use the technique to pretend they are calling from a well-known company or government agency.
By hijacking the names and phone numbers of companies with which you are familiar, the callers attempt to gain your trust in hopes they can trick you into handing over important financial information.
Before responding to unsolicited phone calls, BBB advises:
Never give out any financial information - If you did not initiate the call, do not provide bank account, credit card or Social Security numbers over the phone unless you have thoroughly done your research and verified the caller.
Don't rely on caller ID - Scammers can use technology to make it appear as though their calls are coming from legitimate businesses or organizations.
Trust your instincts - If something doesn't seem right to you, end the call.
If you receive one of these scam calls, hang up. Best advice? If you receive a call from your own telephone number or anyone else whose number you don't recognize, allow the call to go to voice mail.

Planting Instructions
Step 1:
Unpack all of your plants right away! Look for the perfect location. Make sure you are planting in the correct light conditions.
Step 2:
Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball. Position your plant in the hole. Make sure the top of the root ball is slightly higher than the original grade of the bed. Also check to make sure it is straight from all sides.
Step 3:
Fill up hole with water before placing new plant in hole in order to saturate the surrounding soil. Once the water is absorbed place your plant in the hole and water thoroughly.
Step 4:
Mix the potting soil and the soil removed from the hole. Start by backfilling soil around the root ball. Carefully pack in the soil to remove any air pockets. Water plant thoroughly again until the soil will not hold any more water. This will ensure that your new plant will be a success.
Step 5:
Fertilize around your plant with the amount recommended on the package. Our special Fertilizer contains all of the nutrients to keep your plants growing and healthy. Repeat every 3 months.
Step 6:
Finish up by mulching around your new plant. Apply 2 - 3 inches of mulch around the plant and plant bed. Mulch will help keep the soil moist and keep weeds out.
Step 7:
Keep watered with a hose every 2-3 days for 2 weeks. This is critical for plant survival. In the third week, begin to water as needed depending on the weather. Always check by placing your finger under the mulch to see if the soil is moist.

International Commercial Arbitration and the Arbitrator's Contract (Routledge Research in International Commercial Law v. 2)By: Emilia Onyema (author)Hardback
Only 1 in stock
DescriptionThis book examines the formation, nature and effect of the arbitrators' contract, addressing topics such as the appointment, challenge, removal and duties and rights of arbitrators, disputing parties and arbitration institutions. The arguments made in the book are based on a semi-autonomous theory of the juridical nature of international arbitration and a contractual theory of the legal nature of these relationships. From these premises, the book analyses the formation of the arbitrator's contract in both ad hoc and institutional references. It also examines the institution's contract with the disputing parties and its effect on the arbitrator's contract under institutional references. The book draws from national arbitration laws and institutional rules in various jurisdictions to give a global view of the issues examined in it. The arbitrator's contract is analysed from a global perspective of arbitral law and practice with insights from various jurisdictions in Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America. The primary focus of the book is an analysis of the formation of the arbitrator's contract and the terms of this contract and the institution's contract. The primary question of the consequences (if any) of the breaches of the terms of these contracts and its impact on the exclusion or limitation of liability of arbitrators and institutions is also analysed with the conclusion that since these transactions are contractual and the terms can be categorised as in any normal contract, then normal contractual remedies can be applied to the breaches of these terms. International Commercial Arbitration and the Arbitrator's Contract will be of great value to arbitration practitioners and researchers in arbitration. It will also be very useful to students of arbitration on the topics of arbitrators and arbitration institution.

The television work but it shut off buy itself within 20 minutes . Vizio customer service stated it is the motherboard and it is expensive to have repaired. It would be cheaper to just by another television. Customer service was saying that is not there problem. Basically to bad.
I bought my Vizio 47 inch television, because my father and brother both had bought the 55-inch Vizio and had great experiences with them and I found their picture quality to be outstanding. My 47-inch Vizio has been nothing but a dream. It worked immediately. Was easy to set up. You have Netflicks, Amazon, and the Internet as soon as you hook it up to your wireless. I connected it with an ethernet cable but you can set it up with wireless also. The picture quality is top of the line with this television. It is so crisp and sharp that it takes getting used to. The HD picture is incredible. The remote is one of the better remotes I've had and works great. The sound is very good and we've had no problems what-so-ever. I could not recommend a television more than this one. We ordered it site-to-store online and saved an addtional $50.00 from the sale price, so be sure to check the online price verses the store, especially when it goes on sale. It might save you some more money.
I purchased this largely due to the fact, that my entire family has purchased this brand & hasn't had any problems whatsoever to speak of as this posting! However, I see some folks, have not been so lucky?
I've had mine for probably 2-3 months now & I haven't had any issues at all. I guess only time will tell? As with any HDTV, if you want killer sound, get a sound system. If you don't care so much & aren't too picky, you can get nice sound from the same brand soundbar they sell.
The LED-LCD combo lighting provides a great-picture & the 240-Hz, is great for the action & sci-fi movies.
If you can afford it, get yourself the HDMI-Cables for all of your components, that you plan to hook up to your HDMI TV & you won't be disappointed! I went all in & purchased this TV, a Vizio Soundbar & Vizio BluRay Player too, so far no issues at all to speak of, with any of their products! Knock on Wood!
Lastly, as with anything electronic, get yourself an extended warranty if you can, on all of these components! It will at least give you the peace of mind, if something does go wrong.
I did a lot of research before I purchased this TV and I still believe it is worth the price for the way it performs. I purchased it less than a week ago but then it began to turn off on its own...
There seems to be some sort of glitch with Vizio's software updates that causes so many of their TVs to turn off on their own that a support supervisor for the company called the problem "normal." Now I understand that things go wrong and need to be updated, but even though this seemed to be a pervasive problem with their product line they could give me no timeline for when it will be remedied, and seemed to think I was demanding for wanting one.
When I stated to the support person I was talking with that the whole situation seemed strange and very not "normal," I was told "Sorry" and then disconnected.
So basically...
Maybe the TV is worth the price, but with the way their support staff treated my issue I'm not even sure what they told me is wrong with my TV is legitimate. When you're paying a thousand-plus dollars for something you want to know there's help waiting if anything goes wrong with it...unfortunately, that's not what you get with Vizio.
If you don't mind putting up with lousy support, this TV definitely has a pretty picture!
The picture quality is very good along with the Internet ready features. Many reviews rated this TV high and normally I would agree, However, there is a software or hardware design problem with this TV. The TV will lock up when the program transitions to or from a commercial or to from the credits of a movie. This usually occurs when switching from HD to non-HD signals. The only way to restore operations this is to remove power and depress the on/off button for 30 seconds.
This may be an isolated problem, but several other reviews indicate that this is a much larger proble, Aside from the TV locking up several times a day it is not a bad unit.
I originally bought the 42 inch identical t.v. and within a week took it back to buy the 47 inch one. I love it. Sound is great. Picture is absolutely beautiful. Once it was out of the box and on t.v. entertainment w/swivel I had it up and running in about 20 minutes. Had all cables plugged and hooked up. My dvd hooked up with Vizio remote. Internet Apps are awesome. Love the free apps. Easy to pick and choose. I picked Pandora and another radio app. Sounds awesome with the t.v. speakers. Wished it had youtube app. Perhaps later if enough people complain. I believe the only way for the t.v. to be fully like a computer is for you to plug your computer into your tv. I haven't done this yet. I have a lap top and a router so this will be very easy for me to do. Remote is awesome and easy to use. Only wished buttons were a little bigger/spaced further apart. But love the remote for the 47 inch tv much better then the 42 inch one. The 42 inch tv remote has buttons that are way to small and close together.
What sold me on this tv was all the high specks. In the long run you will have a much better television.
I haven't played with everything yet on my new 47 inch tv but so far what I'm seeing and using I am loving. I only wished I bought the 55 inch Vizio now. Don't know if I should take this one back now and exchange for the bigger one. The 42 inch was small. This 47 inch is great. The 55 inch would be massive.
So far this TV has performed exceptionally well! This is my first HDTV and i am extremely pleased with this purchase. The internet conectivity is impressive, It found an open wireless network and connected in a snap! I am able to use fb, E-bay, and Netflix with ease right on my screen while still being able to view whatever program i am watching. We have this TV in a room that gets alot of late day sunlight and glare has not been a problem. Fot the price they are selling this you cannot go wrong. I think its a steal for under $1K.
We bought this tv online and waited 10 days for site to store pick up. We waited patiently and were excited to finally get to use it. The very first day, the tv kept turning off. It wouldn't stay on no longer than a couple seconds then just turned off on it's own. DO NOT BUY THIS TV! I don't even understand why Vizio still tries to sell this model. In my opinion, it should be taken off the market for good!
I bought this tv for my mom 3 years ago and it stopped working. The screen started to get lines across the screen until it filled the screen. I went on blog sites and noticed that this is a common problem with this model and there were many complaints of this happening. I also bought a Vizio Bluray player for my mom last year so she can watch Netflix and something happened that it wouldn't connect to Netflix but it connected to everything else. I called customer support and trouble shooted it and we could not fix it. I asked them to replace or repair it because it was still under warranty and they told me because only netflix was the only problem they would not honor the warranty. I know that my family will never buy a Vizio product ever again. My mom only used netflix and the player and far as I'm concerned it was half broke. I would recommend not buying Vizio because they don't last and they don't honor there warranty.
This is an excellent TV, especially for the low price at Walmart.
As others have mentioned here, there is one caveat. The TV powers off by itself, seemingly when switching between different programs. The latest firmware update doesn't solve the problem.
Hopefully Vizio has a reasonable solution for this problem.
So far the tv is good. The tv has turned it's self off twice. I am looking into seeing if was due to settings on the tv.
We just purchased this TV this summer. After the first month we love it. The picture is beautiful and the clearest we have ever seen even thou we only have antenna for a connection. Walmart price could not be beat anywhere and I bought the two year service plan. We have NOT encountered the problem of the TV turning off and on as some have suggested. We were told that comes from a low internet signal. We would strongly recommend this TV.
I bought this TV with Wifi capability and internet apps mainly for the Netflix app. Got everything set up and Netflix wouldn't work though everything else did. I spent many hours over 2 days talking to Vizio and Netflix support trying to get my problem fixed but they just kept blaming one another so I finally got frustrated and returned it. Otherwise, nice TV and features for the price. Remote with full keyboard is handy.
.......The picture quality is so good, it is just unbelievable! It has decent sound, was quick and intuitive to set up with Direct TV and has given us zero problems. -Have not used any internet apps and we mostly watch HD sports. The realism of the picture is just crazy good. -Highly recommended to anyone who wants a big TV with the best picture at a fair price. I also like the TV remote that cloned all the satellite remote functions in a snap. -Too cool!
I bought a vizio t.v. just over a year ago and had problems connecting to internet last night through my apps. After contacting my dsl service provider, I figured out they were not the problem. So, I contacted Vizio and they figured out it was the television that needed to be repaired. Since I have had the tv just over a year, it would not be covered under warranty. Vizio said the work would cost 301.00 to repair the t.v. I paid almost 1600.00 when I bought my tv brand new. Save yourself the money and trouble, and buy a tv from respected brand that has been around for a while. You may read other reviews where people say they love their vizio. Unfortunately, they probably have just purchased their televisions and have not had them the time I have.
Nice picture, lots of extra features. Sound, both quality and loudness, are less than I expected after having purchased a similar 55" Vizio TV previously.
We have been very impressed with the picture and sound of this TV. Picture feels almost life like and we don't even have the HD yet. Haven't had the problem with shut-off like some have mentioned but we did have a little trouble with set up only due to our ineptness. But we figured it out on our own. No negatives so far.
The system is less than 90 days old and has been working great. However, last weekend when I turned it on there was a notice of a firmware update accomplished and after that update it began turning off when it goes to a commercial on some channels. Seems on the major networks it doesn't have the problem. I called support and they brought me through some things saying it would help correct the problem. Within minutes of getting off the phone it happened again. Called back and they said they would sent out a tech to fix it. Received a call yesterday from the tech saying they have ordered the parts needed and would call to set up an appointment when the parts came in. Funny thing is they asked if I knew the model number, but I was at work and didn't have it with me. Not sure if they could order parts if they don't know the model or why they would ask if it didn't matter. Anyway, hopefully they will be able to fix the problem. Frustrating when you are at the end of a program and cuts off right at the last commercial before the end and by the time you get it back on it is over. I would recommend to a friend once the turning off issue is corrected.
The only issue I had was when I was setting up the network. Started with a older model router then replaced with a Vizio unit. In between the switching the set would turn off by itself. Called Vizio customer service (which is useless) and was about ready to return when I gave it one more day. Two months later have not had an issue. Going from 60 to 240 took some getting use to but the set is amazing. I'm using an Onkyo receiver with Klipsch speakers so I cant comment on sound quality from TV.
If it wasn't for the sound on this TV, we would have given 5 stars. Had this TV for 2 weeks..the sound kept shutting off. We had to change channels and then the sound came back on. The TV has a beautiful picture. Very easy set-up. We took it back to our local WM this morning. Customer service and the girl in electronics were wonderful and helpful. After looking at TV's for about an hour, we bought a 55" Vizio. We loved the one we took back except for the sound. Hope it was just a lemon and this one will be fine.

Ice Cream Around the World
While ice cream is an iconic American summer treat, variations of it are enjoyed around the globe. From India's Kulfi to Italy's gelato, get a taste of the world's finest frozen delights.
Japan: Mochi Ice Cream
Japan: Mochi Ice CreamThis frozen treat fuses "the most American of treats (ice cream) and the most Japanese of desserts (mochi)" into an international taste sensation. The frozen sweet consists of golf-ball-sized mochi (sticky rice pounded into a soft texture) with an ice-cream filling in flavors like green tea and red bean. This popular Asian-American fusion dessert can be found in grocery stores all over the world. 960 1280
Vermont: Ben and Jerry's
Vermont: Ben and Jerry'sYou can't pass a ice-cream aisle without seeing this iconic American ice-cream brand staring you down, tempting you to try its latest concoction. It is the American ice dream -- two college grads, Ben and Jerry, open their first ice-cream shop in Burlington, VT, in 1978 and then take over the world ... one scoop of "Chunky Monkey" at a time. 960 1280
Italy: Gelato
Italy: GelatoIf you want to piss off an Italian, call gelato "ice cream." While the two are quite similar in their deliciousness, gelato is typically denser and milkier than traditional ice cream. And the good news? Gelato contains less fat than ice cream, since it uses more milk than cream. And less fat means more room for flavor, like our favorites -- nocciola (hazelnut) and fragola (strawberry). 960 1280
Israel: Halva Ice Cream
Israel: Halva Ice CreamIsrael's take on ice cream? Halva ice cream. Halva, a sweet candy-like treat made from sesame seeds mashed into a sugar-and-honey paste, is common in many Israeli dishes. On a hot day in Tel Aviv, cooling off with Halva ice cream is a popular pastime. 960 1280
France: Foie Gras Ice Cream
France: Foie Gras Ice CreamLeave it to the French to turn their ice cream into a delicacy. While the world continues to debate the cruelty of making foie gras -- overfattened duck liver -- we think everyone can be in agreement that ice cream doesn't need to include over-the-top ingredients to taste gourmet. You had us at vanilla. 960 1280
Turkey: Dondurma
Turkey: DondurmaStretchy ice cream? While it sounds unusual, Turkish ice cream, dondurma, has a similar pliability to taffy. The dondurma street vendors in Istanbul have fun with its pliable texture, wowing passerby with its ability to not fall off a stick or melt. It's thickened with salep, a flour made from orchids, which only adds to its exotic appeal. 960 1280
Germany: Spaghetties
Germany: SpaghettiesWhile it might resemble pasta, Germany's spaghettieis is vanilla ice cream drawn through a pastamaker and then topped with a strawberry topping (to look like tomato sauce). This playful play on pasta was created by an Italian in Germany in the 1960s and has been a popular dessert with kids and adults alike ever since. 960 1280
Alaska: Akutaq
Alaska: AkutaqIn a place with freezing temperatures, it's hard to imagine a need for a cool-down dessert, but "Eskimo ice cream" is a popular local treat in Alaska. Traditionally, this native dish includes meat and fat from animals like seals, moose and caribou, although nowadays Crisco is a common substitute for animal fat. But seasonal ingredients like salmonberries and blueberries are still used in the modern version. 960 1280
India: Kulfi
India: KulfiA mix of condensed milk, sugar and exotic flavors like saffron and cardamom, this popular Indian frozen dessert has a dense texture more similar to custard than ice cream. Traditionally, this cool treat was only found in India's street markets, kept frozen in earthenware pots of ice and salt. Now its popularity is so widespread, you can find it in Whole Foods' frozen-food aisles. 960 1280
U.S. Wide: Frozen Yogurt
U.S. Wide: Frozen YogurtAfter Americans had one too many Ben and Jerry's pints, they dreamed of a way to satisfy their love for cold, creamy desserts … while maintaining their waistline. Thus, frozen yogurt was born in the late 1970s and took off in the 1980s all over the United States as a low-fat alternative to ice cream. America's craving for lower fat varieties didn't stop Ben and Jerry, though … those brilliant guys now even offer Greek frozen yogurt, the latest healthy frozen indulgence. 960 1280

Every year a big game of musical chairs breaks out in the Formula One paddock, as some drivers try to hold on to their seats, some try to grab new ones and others are left without a seat for the following season. McLaren has been extremely reluctant to announce who would be sitting in its carbon-fiber seats next season, but it's finally spilled the beans.
15Jenson Button and his pit crew start a car wash

It's no secret that the average Formula One pit crew present a master class in precision and speed. Of course, those talents are only really on display during pit stops, when they're basically just changing tires or making tiny adjustments. Considering this, it's fair to wonder how they'd do in something a bit more... soapy.

UPDATE: Red Bull Racing's Daniel Ricciardo has been disqualified by race officials for breaking Article 5.1.4 of the Formula 1 Technical Regulations. Put more simply, his car consumed too much fuel over the course of the race. Red Bull has appealed the decision, claiming that readings from the fuel flow meters used in the first race of the 2014 F1 season were inconsistent. The text of this report has been changed to reflect this information.

With the departure of Mark Webber from the Formula One grid, Jenson Button now ranks as one of the oldest drivers in the series. Turning 34 this month, he's mere months younger than Kimi Raikkonen, but has spent more seasons racing in F1 than the elder Finn. As such, Button is nearing the end of his viable time in the sport – but just when will he retire, and what will he do next?

Formula One fans and commentators have spent the three weeks since the Malaysian Grand Prix discussing two things more than any other: that pass, and tires. Sebastian Vettel spent days giving his tongue an Olympic workout on the verbal gymnastics parallel bars before finally admitting he passed his Infiniti Red Bull teammate Mark Webber on purpose partly for reasons of payback, partly out of a desire to win – he doesn't apologize for it and he would do it again.

McLaren F1 hasn't gone into much detail on the changes included in its brand new MP4-28, which might cause a double-take since it has the same lines and paint job as last year's car. We're told, however, that under the skin it is a new beast, team managing director Jonathan Neale saying that instead of evolving last year's race-winning car it made more sense to be more ambitious and provide a more open-ended development track.

The track between the lakes, the Circuit d'Interlagos in Sao Paulo, Brazil, yet again served up a fitting finale to the Formula One season. There were all kinds of ways for the two Driver's Championship contenders – Sebastian Vettel in the Red Bull and Fernando Alonso in the Ferrari – to win and lose during the 71 laps of the Brazilian Grand Prix, and that was before the rain, before the yellow flags and safety car periods, and before the accidents.

The UK's BBC and Sky TV channels have split the broadcasting of Formula 1 races.

Federer was too busy not thinking about yesterday
― Matt, Monday, 3 March 2008 22:05 (eight years ago) Permalink
i was only referring to his disinclination to play davis cup.
and i was kidding about that anyway - i care no more about it than he does.
still, 'unpatriotic' was probably a poor choice of word. well done young man!
― Upt0eleven, Monday, 3 March 2008 22:35 (eight years ago) Permalink
It was more the "little shit" that you coupled it with, to be fair.
Anyway, yes, two out of three won against Federer now.
― ailsa, Monday, 3 March 2008 22:37 (eight years ago) Permalink
God knows why he'd want to play the Davis Cup. Who else is going to be on the team? I wouldn't want to be winning matches and carrying a team full of useless people in a tournament that has long since lost its cachet and relevance except in the eyes of really, really old tennis commentators.

x-post take umbrage wherever you like it was all meant in jest, apart from the congratulatory bit. internet does not do deadpan.
But I genuinely like Murray. I also agree with the above post. I can't be arsed to even watch Davis Cup so I can't blame him if he's rather not play in it.

― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 3 August 2008 21:45 (eight years ago) Permalink
this is his third title of 2008 alone. by far the biggest though! wish i could've seen it, sounds like a fantastic match, and it's good to see him encroaching on THE TRIVALRY even if i do like nole more (lol the way fed's playing, nadal/djokovic/murray is the real trivalry).
on the WTA, dinara safina has won two big titles in a row! she is the only woman out there who is stepping up to fill the void at the top. jankovic is going to be world no 1 next week, that is embarrassing. the WTA is probably in the worst shape i've ever witnessed.

Oh I know he's won stuff before but not a big tourney. It was a good match. He looks so much fitter and stronger than he was a year or 2 ago.

Nadal will be #1 on 18/8. Can't quite believe Fed's slump post-SW19; loss to Simon, near-loss to Ginepri, loss to Karlovic. Thought he might have at least made a fight of the #1 ranking (his form was fine for 18 of 19 matches in Paris, Halle and London); I had this romantic notion of the baton being passed as Fed beat Nadal at Flushing Meadow (Nadal's points surge taking him past the repeating champ despite the loss). Fed will be lucky to get out of the sixteens in NYC. Does Beijing have any ranking points?
― Michael Jones, Monday, 4 August 2008 00:04 (eight years ago) Permalink
yeah, it does. i think a few less than a masters event for the dudes, a few more than a tier ii for the chicas.
GOD that feels ridiculous looking at it! thinking about how much the olympics mean to, like, track&fielders and rowers and the like, and in tennis it's like...a TIER II.
anyway in other news, THIS is the 15-year-old saviour of the WTA who in the past month has taken sets from both serena and sweta, michelle larcher de brito: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kxaLo1riGo&feature=related
she makes sharapova sound like a trappist. seriously i can't believe she hasn't been asked to stop that bullshit yet, or like MURDERED ON COURT by a deafened opponent. that's not a grunt, that's a scream with a sustain pedal on. i'm not sure i'm going to be able to actually watch any of her matches.

Well done Andy!
― ailsa, Sunday, 14 June 2009 15:02 (seven years ago) Permalink
Bit of a dull game lit up by a few stunning forehands. Shoddy line calls all day, none of which helped Blake. Well done to Murray on being the first Brit in yonks to win Queen's, which I'm sure won't lead to even more Wimbledon hype.
― SB "A Good Story" (onimo), Sunday, 14 June 2009 15:08 (seven years ago) Permalink
I predict Murray will cave under the pressure and be out by round 3.
― ailsa, Sunday, 14 June 2009 15:09 (seven years ago) Permalink
he doesn't seem to be the sort to cave under pressure. but a friendly first-week draw would certainly be nice...
didn't watch the Queen's, but watched the Edgbaston SFs (Li d. Sharapova and Rybarikova d. Mirza) and a bit of the final today - Magdalena Rybarikova is a real discovery, such a classic grass-court game! Slices and volleys and good serving! she looks weirdly like Samantha Morton, too. i remember seeing a photo of her from her junior days when she lost some random final - she was posing w/the trophy and seriously looked like she was about to go bowling for columbine. so it was lucky for Edgbaston that she won today!
Haas beat Djokovic in the Halle final this week too.

The weird transatlantification of Murray's pan loaf accent has meant I can't actually hear what he's saying - it's just a series of droning noises that makes my ears stop working.

pan loaf accent
is that how you talk with your mouth full of bread?
― Beth Parker, Sunday, 14 June 2009 16:17 (seven years ago) Permalink
It was once more expensive and regarded as more fashionable than the then more common plain loaf. Hence, to speak with a pan loafy voice is to speak in a posh or affected manner.
― SB "A Good Story" (onimo), Sunday, 14 June 2009 16:19 (seven years ago) Permalink
How on earth does Murray speak with an affected accent?! He just mumbles.
I found that picture of Rybarikova looking like she's ready to go bowling for Columbine after losing the Wimbledon juniors final!
Fortunately today was more to her liking.

wtf federer?! 5-2 up in the final set, somehow fails to serve it out twice and then DFs on match point in the tie-break to give Tsonga the win.
all credit to Jo-W for stepping it up right at the end, but still... that was some breakdown.
― Roz, Friday, 14 August 2009 21:25 (seven years ago) Permalink
5-1 up in the third! :o
at the same time I was watching Flavia Pennetta try to choke away her match - she beat Venus in the last round, and winning this would mean a top 10 debut. 6 match points came and went, double faults on at least two of them, but her opponent was Hantuchova so it was OK in the end.
btw, Serena's post-Wimbledon record = QF loss in Stanford to Stosur and 3R loss in Cincinnati to Bammer, who now owns a 2-0 record over her. The Real Number 1!
am endeavouring to pretend the horrific Clijsters comeback isn't happening. never liked her.

he's only played two or three proper matches so yeah still rusty/cautious but he seems to be getting better everyday.
gonna be a great USO - with Murray at number 2, it's likely that Nadal will end up on the same half of the draw as Fed which is just weird to think abt. they've both been at the top for *ages*.

I'm the biggest Sharapova fan around but as I said when this thing first rolled out obviously some blame should be placed on her. The celebratory mood over a punishment that is still being executed and still will affect next season is a bit much. I think the CAS marks a solid line between negligence and intentional 'doping' - while maintaining that negligence is still the player's responsibility. Even though the ITF is rightly criticized for _their mangling of the whole process.
A final ruling is good to have, anyway, and I hope for some more years of tennis.

I was just coming in here to mention that Mischa Zverev is outstripping his kid brother for once! Older Zverev took out Granollers too and now plays Novak in the QF - only his second ever last-eight appearance at this level (Rome, 2009 being the other), and as a qualifier ranked 130-odd.
Younger Zverev lost to Tsonga 7-5 in the 3rd, last 16.
I do wonder just when Mischa started losing regularly to Sascha on the practice court. Maybe only in the last year or so.
