The Cento1 Air is new to Wilier's 2014 line up and is a combination of their Cento1 SR - with its smooth balanced ride characterises, and the sophisticated aerodynamics features of the TwinBlade. The Cento1 Air is based around a 60 ton carbon fibre monocoque frame and forks and features some unique design elements to enhance you riding comfort.
Straight away you can see that the seat post is aero and full carbon. This is manufactured by Ritchey and matches perfectly the aerodynamics of the seat tube. The locking mechanism (2 systems) is simple and clever at the same time, still being aero and incredible safe. All the cables (except brake) run inside the down tube and enter via the adjuster plate located at the top of the down tube. This provides a clean and tidy look to the frame. Another noticeable feature of the Cento1 Air are the aero rear seat stays. These have been inspired by the TwinBlade and feature lower down the down tube which means more aero performance. It does look stunning also. Other frame enhancements include, 386 EVO bottom bracket, asymmetric rear stays, an internal routing plate (under the BB), tapered head tube (1 1/8" to 1 1/4"), and a integrated aero carbon fork.
The Cento1 Air also comes fitted with Campagnolo's Athena 11 speed groupset and provides top class performance giving superior shifting and excellent brake modulation. Being 11 speed, means you have 22 gears at your disposal. This should provide you with the gearing you require to tackle the most demanding of hills, enabling you to hurtle down your favourite piece of straight/flat road all whilst out on a long endurance ride (sportive event) or perhaps during a competition event. Eitherway, the Cento1 Air delivers performance.
Coupled with the stunning frame, the superior Athena groupset, you also get a pair of Fulcrum Red Wind deep section wheels (50mm). These roll effortlessly along the tarmac propelling you forward with every pedal stroke. They also come wrapped with a pair of Michelin Lithion2 700 x 23c tyres and give great grip even when cornering at speed.
Finally, the finishing kit on this machine is from Ritchey and in the shape of their Pro range, Curve handlebar and a 4-Axis stem. The saddle, Wilier custom design, sits on top of the carbon aero seat post with Wilier also being present as regards the bar tape (black).
Everything about this bike is aero. Aero seat post, aero wheels, aero forks and frame - cheating the wind and getting you to ride as fast as you can is written all over this bike. If you take you cycling seriously, want the best and are prepared to pay for it, then take this Cento1 Air into consideration. It's a bike that is worthy of riding with the best within the pro peloton with components equally as matched.
Each Wilier is fully built, tested and tuned by Wiggle's team of qualified bike mechanics to ensure you're bike arrives in perfect condition. To find out which size fits you use the size chart below.
Wiggle has a comprehensive range of road bikes to suit all types of cycling. Including racing bikes and triathlon racing bikes, along with a comprehensive range of ladies road bikes and mens road bikes for competitive racing or leisure cycling. Wiggle's range of road racing bikes are lighter and faster than other styles of bikes making them the ideal choice for many different cycling activities.

Wilier was born in 1906 thanks to the brilliant idea of a trader from Bassano, Pietro Dal Molin, of building bicycles on his own account. His forge or "Steel horses" rose as a small workshop along the banks of the river Brenta, at Bassano del Grappa, and it became more and more successful by keeping up with the increasing demand for bicycles.
Size Matters
At Wiggle we measure each of our bikes to build accurate size charts. When you place an order for a bike, we ask for your height and inside leg measurements. Our team of qualified mechanics will check your measurements against the size chart to make sure that the size you choose will fit you correctly.

From next week on Friday, June 29th, retailer GAME will be peddling a new PlayStation 3 SKU that's exclusive to them. What's special about this new fancy bundle from Sony Corp? Well it's white, packs a 320GB HDD and comes with two white DualShock controllers and a 90 day subscription to PlayStation Plus. All that for the sum of £240 on the isle of Blighty. It's available to pre-order right now from the GAME website. Previously the white slim PS3 had been promised to just GameStop but that deal has lapsed, said Sony.

"Here in the UK from July 6th, Game will be selling the White PS3 including the two white Dualshock controllers and a free three months of PlayStation Plus. They are selling a different value bundle and are the current UK exclusive partner for Classic White PlayStation 3." Check out the GAME product page for more information. |

What's a Nashbar? Any thoughts on this brand?
All bike frames are made from a handful of factories in China (Trek used to tout: Proudly Made in the USA, but they don't any more). Bike parts the same, so it does not matter what you buy, just what brand name you care to show off.
^ False. Just like anywhere else, there are better and worse quality items coming from China, though with bike frames you generally have some idea based on metal type (or carbon fiber), weight, etc. Walmart bikes are also made in china so are their $100 specials as good as a $1000 brand name?
dave_c, you're like the only wise one that calls that out. Very true. Some of the best and worse products are made in China. It's the brand and product that made it good or bad not the factories.
There are no weights that I can find on this bike and it's really hard to see the welding points on this picture to see. How am I to know this is not one of those names that uses the cheaper manufactured stuff and just sells it at a higher price?
I guess buying bikes from a website is about as good as good an idea as buying medium end people from a website.
^ Though I was speaking about frames, on a whole bike you look at the major components like suspension, shifters, derailleurs, etc. Not just the brand but the tier within that brand... but, I'd guess the whole thing weighs around 30 lb.
From what I can see in the picture, the welds look pretty typical for an aluminum frame.
This isn't really a $500 bike except as the MSRP, but not bad at all for $238, at which price point you usually won't get disc brakes at all, and with a decent selection of frame sizes. Edit: I'm wrong about the disc brakes, it seems more entry level bikes now have disc brakes.
The front suspension is a bit on the small side, so better for trail riding than mountains, but on a discount bike like this you can put the money you saved into any upgrades you decide on later.
have been thinking about this bike. what size do you suggest for a 5'9" dude at 160lbs?
^ You're right on the border between a 17" and 19" frame. Considering it's a MTB I'd go with the 17" unless you have an unusually long inseam for your height, it's easier to control a MTB that's a little undersized vs a little oversized, and people just tend to raise the seat.
One thing that might help is to take a picture of it to a local bike shop and compare the frame geometry to what they have there, then sit on a 17" and 19".
Here's a rough frame size calculator.
Nashbar does not cover return shipping. The cost of returning this bike from California would be more than the price of the bike so be sure you will be happy with your purchase because it can't be returned. Use Amazon instead of Nashbar is my advice. Also their sale prices are bogus. Watch the regular price of this bike suddenly become way cheaper right after this sale expires (like about $249) and it will probably feature free shipping.
thanks davc good info for my specific need.
thanks Superman. a crucial info.

Craig, who will speak in the Tulsa area next weekend, in recent years has debated the so-called "four horsemen of the new atheism" - Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and the late Christopher Hitchens.
"In each case," he said, "they were not able to effectively argue for the truth of their view, nor were they able to respond to criticisms of their position. ... They've been surprisingly weak in responding to criticism."
Errr... I'm pretty sure he hasn't debated Dan Dennett (who, being a philosopher by trade, would probably make a formidable opponent). And he hasn't directly debated Dawkins. But anyway, I gotta love how self-congratulatory he is. According to himself, he's soundly defeated every atheist he's debated. Did any of his opponents admit defeat, or even to a specific weak argument? Is there a lick of evidence that his debates have effectively persuaded a significant number of atheists to switch sides?
Craig said the rash of books, debates and programs about atheism is a recent phenomenon that is accurately called the "new atheism."We do? That's news to me. Although I suppose it depends on what you mean... if you mean we want to persuade people to think critically and reject religion voluntarily, yes! If you mean we want to stop other people from acting on their religious freedom, no! In fact it's atheists, far more than Christians, who have been busy defending egalitarian religious liberty against Christian privilege in this country. (NY mosque debate, anyone?)
"One of the differences is that the new atheism wants to eliminate religious belief, not merely from the public square, but even from the private lives of citizens," he said.
He said students may give lip service to moral relativism, but very few actually believe it and none of them live it.
"Students are deeply committed to moral values and moral absolutes.
Objective morality does not exist (and nobody believes in it anyway)
Self-congratulatory grin ENGAGE |
I may go to this, just for the sake of seeing this quasi-celebrity continually try to break his record for "most bullshit spoken in the least amount of time."

James Blake & Bon Iver: Fall Creek Boys Choir
Posted onYes, it's here. This track is the product of a chance meeting of Justin Vernon and James Blake at SXSW in March. The collaboration from these two artists brings together the slow building, dub-influenced, layered production of Blake with the soulful, emotionally raw vocals from Vernon, resulting in a stunning composition that seems to push beyond the sonic comfort zones featured on their most recent albums. We're hoping for some sort of release entitled "Enough Thunder" from these two sometime this October.

Toby Hamilton
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Toby Ferdinand Hamilton (May 17, 2001-November 25, 2007) is was a famous American biologist, botanist, oceanographer, and adventurer.
edit Early Life
Toby Hamilton was born into a middle class family on May 17th 2001 in Hebron, Nebraska. Hamilton was reportedly very interested in bugs, and in particular bug torture at a very early age. By the age of two, squishing the guts out of stinkbugs had become his favorite hobby, but Toby comments that that wasn't enough to quell his budding sadistic urges. In September 2003 he performed his first real experiment when he poured bubble soap on a fat green caterpillar to see what would happen. The experiment did not go as planned, however, as rather than transforming the caterpillar into a bubble and floating away into the sky as he hypothesized, the ugly green bug simply died and turned a whitish pale color because of the bleach. Hamilton, a staunch enviromentalist, is good to the environment and always recycles; Hamilton fed the body of the caterpillar to fireants in another experiment.
edit Butterfly Butter Project
While it was not his first experiment, the famed butterfly butter project became Hamiltons first claim to fame. On April 12th 2004 Hamilton conducted the experiment that would change his life. Hamilton said this on the famous experiment: "I had this butterfly in my net and I thought, what if a butterfly couldn't fly? Would it become butter? That was my hippopotamus. But when I finished the research it didn't turn into butter. It was just a little stick that rolled around when I blew on it. It was funny."
edit Books
Toby was a distinguished author, writing often about his work and life; all of this despite the handicap of being totally illiterate.
- My life with Jake Lloyd (On his sensual relationship with the actor of Star Wars fame.)
- Butterfly: The Toby Hamilton Story.
- How to abort bug fetuses (College Treatise on bug-abortions.)
edit Government Funding
Toby Hamilton became a household name when on July 5th 2007 he became the youngest scientist to ever receive government funding. Hamilton received $20,000 in subsidies for his continuing research in the field of insect torture. The money came as a result of a request written on the back of a page from a Pokemon coloring book sent by Hamilton himself to the state government of Nebraska in Lincoln. This was originally sent back to Hamilton with a note saying "Your submitted documents require your mommy's signature within." His request was finally granted in full after sending in the signed version.
edit Criticism
One of Hamiltons most vocal critics had been his own father. Toby Hamilton's father Stephen said this after being asked if he is proud of his child by a reporter: "I was hoping for Toby to get into sports and play little league so I could live my life vigorously through him. But at this rate he's just going to go off and turn into a serial killer - just like his older brother."
edit Death
On November 25, 2007, Toby Hamilton shot himself when he thought he was pregnant with his imaginary friend Herschel, who had been helping him with various state funded projects such as How to Leave Every Every Child Behind. He reportedly shot himself in the mouth with a Civil War era musket. His mommy buried him in a cornfield not far from Lincoln, Nebraska. The current location of Hamilton's body is unknown.

Russians In California
An Imperial colony on our West Coast was their aim; Fort Ross was their military outpost; and the stakes—higher than they realized
April 1960 | Volume 11, Issue 3
To advance as quickly as possible to California and to remain there, Baranov depended on the assistance of his friends the Americans, who even before Rezanov's visit helped the Russians to poach furs along the California coast. As early as 1803 he entered into a profit-sharing agreement with Captain Joseph ("Honest Joe") O'Cain, who commanded a ship bearing his own name, the O'Cain out of Boston. The partnership admirably suited the needs of both parties. The Russians were faced with the depletion of the Alaskan hunting grounds, but had no seaworthy vessels. The New Englanders, on the other hand, could cruise almost at will in Spanish waters, but lacked the skill and equipment to take pelts. For this purpose the Aleuts, whom the Russians ruled absolutely, were incomparable. They were the finest seal and sea otter hunters in the world. In their light bidarkas, two-man skin canoes, they pursued the animals into rocky inlets and among dangerous shoals, harpooning them with deadly accuracy. On this first joint operation Baranov provided the O'Cain with twenty bidarkas, forty Aleuts, and two Russian officers to supervise them. When they returned north in June, 1804, after a hunt that extended below San Diego, they had caught eleven hundred otters.
Other Americans saw the advantages of collaboration with the Russians. The skippers of the Mercury, the Derby and the Peacock also signed contracts with Baranov, and started operating off California. At the same time, Baranov gathered information concerning California from his officers who accompanied the Aleuts; and in 1807 Vasily Tarakanov came back aboard the Peacock with the news his chief wanted: an excellent site for a base had been found.
Scarcely fifty miles above the Golden Gate, but virtually inaccessible to the land-bound Spaniards, who would have to make the enormous circuit of San Francisco Bay to get there, was Bodega Bay. Today this sheltered anchorage is sanded up, but then it could receive good-sized sailing ships. The surrounding territory seemed fertile. There was a plentiful supply of fresh water and timber. The climate was foggy, but mild. The local Indians, who hated the Spaniards, were friendly to other Europeans. Most important, the Spanish claim to the harbor and region, made in 1775, was doubtful. Drake had been there two centuries earlier. If the Russians chose, they could regard the land as part of New Albion. Conceivably, they could maintain that it belonged to the natives. Baranov, who finally had received two ships from Russia, decided the time was ripe to dispatch expeditionary forces. One was wrecked off the Columbia late in 1808, but the Kodiak arrived safely at Bodega for the New Year of 1809.
Forty Russians and one hundred and fifty Aleuts, twenty of them women, brought the Czar's flag ashore, and stayed eight months. The party was led by Ivan Kuskov, a former clerk in the company, who for years had been Baranov's trusted assistant. Far from appearing the intrepid leader of a hazardous expedition, Kuskov was a picture of mildness. He wore spectacles, and sometimes, at Sitka, drunken naval officers used to beat him, as if he were a character in a Gogol story. But a promotion recommended by Rezanov had given him new status, and he was to display unexpected strength and resourcefulness in a position of command.
On this preliminary visit to Bodega, which he named Fort Rumiantsev in honor of the powerful minister, Kuskov erected a few temporary buildings, inspected the neighboring countryside, and—like Tarakanov before him—sent his hunters into the forbidden waters of San Francisco Bay. This time, rather than risk an entrance through the Gate (where on one occasion a shot from the fort had destroyed two of Tarakanov's bidarkas ), the Aleuts made a portage overland across modern Marin County. It was open provocation of the Spaniards, but the catch in furs was worth the risk. For the "precious sea otter … almost unheeded, was swimming about the Bay in great numbers." The Aleuts began killing otters on Angel Island, within sight of the presidio, and then rashly descended to the southern arm of the bay. Late in March a company of soldiers surprised them ashore, and four of the intruders were killed and two wounded. But sporadic Spanish resistance never deterred the poachers. The Kodiak stayed five months longer at Bodega, leaving with two thousand skins.
Eighteen months later, in February, 1811, Kuskov was back on a new ship, the Chirikov , to make extensive preparations for the founding of a permanent settlement the following year. The Russians were acting slowly, but with considerable thoroughness and skill. That spring and summer they conducted what was actually a trial run of their colonial plans. Fur hunting continued unabated. A post was set up at the Farallon Islands, a favorite haunt of the fur seal, just off the Golden Gate; and during a four-month period three thousand of the animals were killed. Additional buildings were erected at Bodega, and a crop of wheat was sown, harvested, and carried to Sitka. Counting the Aleuts aboard the half dozen American ships that were present, the Russians had a formidable force of five hundred men on the coast: the total garrison of Spanish California was not much larger.

Sarcoidosis |
Treatment options06/08/2007 |
I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis approximately 3 1/2 years ago. Prednisone did seem to help but my physican hesitates to leave me on it. I have done regimens of Imuran, Plaquenil, Methotrexate and am currently on 2000 mg of Cellcept with 20 mg of Prednisone (have been on it since early May). I recently completed a hallwalk where I barely came in over 88% level. My physician cannot prescribe me oxygen (and I don`t know if it would be of any help)since my level wasn`t below 88. Is there anything else or any other resource I can go to for assistance? I am worried about additional scar tissue forming and losing even more lung volume.
Dear Sir/Madam-The steroid-sparing drugs that you have been treated with are reasonable approaches. If one drug treatment (e.g., methotrexate) is not effective, it is sometimes effective to try two non-steroid drugs together. I hesitate to suggest a medication change without knowing the details of your medical history. You have to be monitored closely since most of these drugs, including prednisone, have potentially serious side-effects.
I hope some day in the not so distant future we will have better treatments for sarcoidosis. However, more research is needed.

WASHINGTON (AP) — It started with allegations of hangman's nooses, graffiti and racist comments targeting a handful of black workers at a trucking company warehouse in Chicago Ridge, Ill.
Four years later, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission had turned the case into a major class action lawsuit alleging more than 170 employees of Yellow Transportation Inc. were victims of a racially hostile work environment.
When the company agreed in June to settle the case for $11 million, it became the EEOC's latest victory in a systemic strategy to bring more large-scale bias cases against prominent companies — all in the name of cracking down on discrimination in the workplace.
Instead of filing a lawsuit on behalf of one worker at a time, the commission is increasingly trying to super-size cases. Investigators look for patterns of discrimination against dozens or even hundreds of workers at a single company in areas such as hiring, pay, promotion or termination.
The EEOC, which enforces the nation's workplace antidiscrimination laws, hopes that larger settlements that generate widespread publicity will send a strong message to employers about complying with the law.
While the tactic has won praise for deterring discrimination, business groups complain the EEOC is overreaching, driving up their legal bills and making their investments riskier. Federal courts also have rapped the commission, saying in particular cases that it overstepped its bounds.
Many corporate targets, like Yellow Transportation — now YRC Worldwide Inc. — often decide it's cheaper to settle without admitting guilt than to endure years of costly litigation against the government.
"They've gotten every employer's attention," said Chicago lawyer Gerald Maatman, who represents companies sued by the EEOC. "It's a commission that, under the Obama administration, has dramatically expanded its enforcement efforts to send a message to corporate America."
The systemic effort has surged from less than 50 active investigations in 2006 to nearly 600 last year. In 2011, more than 40 companies — from Denny's restaurants to United Airlines to Verizon — paid out more than $60 million in settlements or unfavorable court judgments after the EEOC brought systemic discrimination cases.
The surge in bigger cases comes as Republicans and business groups accuse the Obama administration of hampering business growth with burdensome regulations and policies.
The Supreme Court's decision in Dukes v. Walmart last year, which made it harder for individuals to bring large-scale bias claims, could encourage the EEOC to file more such cases on its own. The EEOC is not bound by the same rules as private citizens for establishing class certification.
"We're not a rich agency, so we're trying to have the most impact that we can with the resources that we have," EEOC general counsel P. David Lopez told The Associated Press.
Last year, for example, the commission reached a $20 million settlement with Verizon Inc. after alleging the company unfairly fired or disciplined hundreds of disabled workers for missing work. Technology firm 3M paid $3 million to settle age discrimination charges after the company laid off hundreds of workers over the age of 45. And Pepsi Beverages Co. paid $3.1 million to settle allegations it used background checks to screen out more than 300 black job applicants.
"They're searching to make a lawsuit as large as they can make it to have the biggest impact possible, so they're trying to find victims, rather than handling claims of victims that come to them," Maatman said.
Lopez says that's part of the commission's duty.
"We are a law enforcement agency," he said. "What we are trying to do is enforce the law, and part of that means we need to identify any victims of discriminatory practices."
Harry Glasper, one of the early plaintiffs in the Yellow Transportation case, said he wasn't sure anything would ever be done to improve conditions at work before the EEOC got involved. When he complained about a noose that was hung from his forklift, he said, his boss told him it was "just guys having fun" and that he should throw it away and get back to work.
"I was just so in awe of the EEOC and the actual research they had done," said Glasper, 57, of Park Forest, Ill. "They had pulled all of the atrocities together. They were able to document this stuff and get the proof. I had gotten to the point where I never thought anything would be done about it."
Lopez, who was named by President Barack Obama in 2009, is the first career EEOC attorney to be named general counsel; the job typically goes to people from outside the government. He made his mark helping the agency develop large, high-impact cases against companies like Walmart, UPS and AutoZone.
The commission decided in 2006 to make systemic cases a priority but was hamstrung by major budget cuts during the Bush administration. EEOC staffing levels were trimmed by nearly 25 percent. Funding was restored once Obama took office, and the agency has hired hundreds of new investigators and experts to tackle the cases.
"If you are just resolving one person's complaint, and it's a policy affecting many people, you're not making an impact," said Julie Schmid, acting director of the EEOC's Minneapolis office, which negotiated the Pepsi settlement. "You're not doing the best you can."
At the same time, the commission is facing growing resentment in the business community, and some courts are questioning its tactics.
"Unfortunately, we have seen that the EEOC can sometimes be too quick on the trigger in bringing these kinds of cases against employers without adequate foundation and plunging ahead to force an employer into a settlement," said Randel Johnson, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's vice president of labor issues.
In three recent cases, federal judges said the commission had no basis to bring class action lawsuits and ordered the EEOC to pay the attorney fees and costs of corporate defendants. Last year, a judge awarded $2.6 million in fees to Ohio-based uniform maker Cintas Corp., finding the EEOC failed to show the company discriminated against women applying for service sales representative positions.
Another judge awarded $750,000 to Peoplemark Inc., a Kentucky-based temporary staffing company, saying the commission could not support its claim that using criminal convictions to screen job applicants resulted in a disparate impact on minorities. The EEOC is appealing both decisions.
In a third case, a judge's award of about $4.5 million to Iowa-based CRST Van Expedited Inc. was later thrown out by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The appeals court still found the EEOC was premature in filing a lawsuit on behalf of more than 100 women who claimed they were sexually harassed by male truck drivers at the company.
"I think the agency's gotten scuffed up a bit in some of these recent decisions," said Ron Cooper, who served as EEOC general counsel during the Bush administration. "The agency needs to have its ducks in a row when it files the lawsuit, and not just have a general thought that there's a problem and hope to discover support in the course of litigation."
Lopez defended his tactics.
"Our litigation success rate is 90 percent, better than the private bar," he said. "We want to bring solid cases."

So long SRT8
After several issues with my 2012 SRT 8 i have let it go. Front bumper popping out, vibration and shake in the front right wheel, exhaust noise (not mds) brakes squealing, trans mis shifting, ventillated seats not working properly, radio issues etc.... it was hard to do but the dealer not stepping up to the plate to address the issues was the last straw. They said it was all normal???? Extremely displeased with Jeep. Will never buy another chrysler product again.
Re: So long SRT8
So I guess your first post will be your last. :rolleyes:
--- |
Re: So long SRT8
sorry you had such a bad experience, never had any major issues with any of my chrysler products and will continue to support them....now finding a great dealership (they are out there, i am extremely happy with mine) is a whole other topic....
Re: So long SRT8
Re: So long SRT8
The one thing that I can say was a very good experience was the Garage forum. Always good information and good people on here. I will continue to remain on the forum due to me still owning a 2002 Grand Cherokee and 2002 Liberty (Which I have not had any problems with!!). Thank you to all on here that gave me advice as I always appreciate it.
Re: So long SRT8
I guess I am just a sucker though. I am soon going to get a 2012 and try it again. I said the same thing as you back in 2008 when I got rid of mine. I can only hope that my experience will be better. I guess I have come to expect that the service experience will be bad and the quality will not be as good. The only thing calling me back is the raw acceleration and the fact that I dont have to drive it every day. I honestly wish there was something better offered in my price range. But nobody else is making anything quite like the jeep srt which has most of what I want. Either way, what did you replace it with? |
Re: So long SRT8
You're not the only one. Jeep owners are as loyal as they come and I too tried to put up with the laundry list of issues my '12 had also. I would rather be driving a Jeep than anything else, but after 9 months and I had to cut mine loose too. I think in the 14's have a little better track record and I hope the next couple of models they come out with will only get better.

Crisis Management Guide
Convention Services Manager
If you're a planner, you've probably seen this introductory line quite a few times. In fact, you may have already seen it today.
As your internal team works to calculate expenses and prepare for your next big meeting, keeping those spreadsheets updated might seem like the most direct path to success.
At last week's PCMA Technology Think Tank, attendees took a closer look at how all those document versions are creating a road full of inefficiencies. Rather than relying on everyone within your team to save those "working" documents, new event technologies give planners the power to organize and analyze all of their data in a convenient and cost-effective way.
Look Up It starts in the cloud. If you're unfamiliar with this above-the-earth technology, the cloud is revolutionizing the way people listen to music, watch movies and now, it's changing the meeting planning game. Cloud-based project management tools replace the need to be at your specific computer with the ability to access, edit and save documents via any computer with Internet connectivity.
Rather than storing all of those floor plans, PPT decks and expense lists on your server or in your email, the cloud puts every piece of your project in one easy-to-use online log. Tom Brandt, Founder and President, Etech Events, gave attendees a view of Etech's Summit client portal. Summit delivers valuable tools such as the ability to give different users access to specific files and real-time project updates that keep your entire team current with changes.
How Much Does It Cost to Send An Email? In the first session of the day, Brandt posed this question to attendees, highlighting just how expensive it can be to send and receive emails. Brandt operates on what he calls "The $10 Rule." While your email service may be free, Brandt's perspective is that electronic mail can be a very costly interruption.
"CCing emails is a great example," Brandt says. "With too many people involved, there can just be too many distractions. Once someone receives an email, it can take a long time to refocus their attention to whatever they were doing first."
Rather than continue to crowd inboxes with more bolded messages, a cloud-based system makes that next update immediately visible without having to carbon copy your entire group. By eliminating some of those interruptions, Brandt says that your team members can stop wasting time answering emails to perform administrative tasks and start focusing on more productive work.
Be On Top of Your Budget Instead of entering that unexpected F & B expense in a spreadsheet, renaming it "Annual Meeting Meals Version 7.xlsx" and saving it in the correct folder, cloud-based budget management lets you track your spending in real time. You'll know exactly where you stand with your spending - anytime, anywhere.
"Forget reconciling your budget all the time," Brandt says. "Managing your expenses in the cloud can save valuable time so that you always know where you stand with your expenses."
Change Is Challenging Integrating new technology sounds appealing, but putting new tools to work isn't that simple. In any organization, there are plenty of obstacles to motivating change among your internal team members.
"Some people may not be able to see the immediate benefits of converting to new technology," Brandt says.
You may have to force them to recognize those benefits. Keith Johnston, publisher, PlannerWire, says that he's had to tell colleagues and clients that he cannot accept their documents via email.
"The hardest part is to shift people away from sending those documents via email," Johnston says.
Johnston adds that that shift can take a long time, because many people may be uncomfortable with new approaches to project management. While some people may be resistant to change, it's crucial to your future. Here are three reasons why:
1) Enhanced accountability. Cloud-based project management systems can help everyone see who is responsible for making edits to documents. By putting work under the microscope, your new system can help make your team members increase their sense of personal responsibility.
2) Employee burnout. Crunching all of those numbers and dealing with email overload can drag your team members down. By simplifying the planning process, you can take a big step toward increasing employee happiness - - and employee retention.
3) Vendor communication. From catering to AV providers to show floor exhibitors, a wide range of companies impact your meeting's success. By streamlining your communications, you'll reduce the chance for errors.
Be sure to check back next week for more coverage of what you missed at the PCMA Technology Think Tank. Thank you to our sponsor, Visit Houston, head over to Facebook and give them a Like.

BIG Old Headphones
Pros: Huge soundstage, great bass.
Cons: Heavy, colored midrange.
I bought these headphones on ebay back in 2008. These are the biggest headphones I've ever seen. I love the huge soundstage these headphones are capable of producing. The bass is awesome as well. It's like a pair of subwoofers strapped to your skull! Overall, I do like the sound of these headphones although they have a pretty annoying peak around 2kHz, but they smooth out with a little bit of EQ. If you're into vintage headphones, this would be a cool pair to own.

A few months ago, it was pointed out to me that I have handed out more "Recommended" awards than any of the other section editors on TrustedReviews. As I explained at the time, the reason for this is simply that there are very few genuinely bad digital cameras around these days. Looking back through the past couple of months' worth of reviews, I find that since the start of October I've only given two cameras overall scores of less than 5/10, but I stand by those scores. There are a lot of very good cameras available at the moment. Unfortunately however, the new Nikon CoolPix L14 isn't one of them, and should go some way towards lowering my score average.
I've reviewed a number of models from Nikon's budget-priced L-series, and I've found them to a mixed bunch. Some, such as the L11 are great little cameras, a bit short on features but terrific value for money. Others, such as the L5 were something of a disappointment, with poor design, sluggish performance and lousy image quality. Nikon is capable of producing some outstanding cameras, and of course its SLRs are legendary, but it does seem to be having some problems with its cheaper compact cameras lately.
The CoolPix L14 is one of those cheaper ones, although not quite the cheapest. It currently retails at just under £100, which is slightly more than the 6-megapixel L11 to which it bears a close resemblance. For your money you get a plastic-bodied 7.1 megapixel compact camera with a 38-114mm-equivalent 3x optical zoom lens and a 2.4-inch 115k pixel LCD monitor. It is available in silver or the admittedly fairly attractive dark blue of my review model. Like the L11 it has an incredibly basic specification, which might make it easy to use for the technologically illiterate, but is massively frustrating for anyone who might actually want to take a decent photo once in a while.

American auto giant General Motors (NYSE:GM) is stepping up its commitment to electric vehicles.
Speaking at an energy industry conference on Wednesday, GM CEO Dan Akerson predicted that major advances in battery technology were coming soon. He noted that GM was developing electric cars that could drive ranges of 100 miles and 200 miles on a charge, Bloomberg noted.
Akerson also said that GM planned to introduce an electric version of its Chevrolet Spark with a battery range of between 75 miles and 80 miles by the end of this year. In addition, the company will unveil a diesel version of the Chevrolet Cruze.
GM expects to have roughly 500,000 at least partially electric vehicles in the hands of American consumers by 2017.
The company's current electric car, the Chevy Volt, has so far failed to live up to sales expectations. In January, a GM executive said the Volt's price would fall significantly as it switched to a new specially-designed body platform.
Shares of General Motors slipped fractionally in Thursday morning trading.

By now, companies that extract natural gas in Pennsylvania by fracking are used to protests. They've got talking points to answer those who complain that fracking fouls drinking water and makes people sick. They've devised ways to deflect critics who say they've invested millions of dollars in lobbying and political contributions to neutralize state and local regulators.
But on Wednesday, when the oil and gas company EQT holds its shareholders' meeting in Pittsburgh, the company and its spin doctors will face a different kind of challenge -- from their stockholders. The agenda includes a resolution that asks whether pay-to-play politics is a sustainable way to run a business and calls on EQT to "assess the financial risks of refraining from political expenditures."
The resolution brings to EQT's investors -- the company's real owners -- a debate that has raged in the streets of Pittsburgh, in the halls of the state capitol and in hundreds of towns across Pennsylvania.
Shareholders debating this resolution will be looking at the long-term profitability of their company, not just short-term spikes. If they conclude that generous campaign contributions and other political expenditures are necessary for success, what does that say about the merits of the industry's case against taxes, regulations and significant fines for violations of environmental laws?
But if investments in 30-second ads, glossy mailers and thousands of rubber-chicken dinners are not critical to the company's success, why has EQT given $328,000 to Pennsylvania political candidates since 2001? Why should it continue to do so?
From 2001 through 2012, the natural gas industry gave $8 million to political candidates in Pennsylvania and more than $20 million to the state's members of Congress. The industry put another $750 million into lobbying Congress during this period but no one knows how much they spent during those years on lobbying in Pennsylvania, which from 2004 to 2007 was the only state in the country that did not have a lobbyist registration law. Since 2007, the industry has spent more than $15 million lobbying in Pennsylvania.
Opponents of fracking have long documented the state's reluctance to step in and demand greater transparency and accountability around issues like disclosure of the chemicals used in fracked wells or more comprehensive studies of ground-water quality before and after an area has been fracked. And while opponents can't compete with the industry when it comes to gifts like the Super Bowl tickets Consol Energy provided to state Senate President Joe Scarnati or the $1.8 million the industry donated to help elect Gov. Tom Corbett, environmentalists and the industry do have one thing in common. Whatever you think about fracking, you want to have confidence in the process Pennsylvania is using to pass laws and regulate this still relatively-new technology.
As the resolution to be introduced by EQT shareholders states, "Without regulatory reform that is accepted as trustworthy and fair by the public, operators will continue to encounter community concerns and challenges that create instability for shareholders ... [and] the greater extent to which the industry is perceived to be trying to buy influence, the longer it will take for regulators and politicians to establish reforms that are accepted by all."
It's not just EQT's shareholders who are starting to ask hard questions about politics and transparency. This spring, shareholders at ExxonMobil and Chevron will again introduce resolutions calling on those companies to release more information on their efforts to mitigate environmental damage caused by fracking. And investors in banks that hold mortgages on fracked properties are beginning to ask questions about the long-term value of those properties, and the potential for long-term liability issues with land that is no longer being fracked but still contains injection wells full of fracking wastewater.
At EQT, shareholders will be asking a similar question about the company's political expenditures -- what happens to all that money after we write the check, and is it worth the risk?

School violence
Jessica Lewis
School violence has been an area of concern for several years, but recent events are once again moving the topic to the front burner. How safe are our schools, and why are some kids so messed up?
In the headlines recently were two stories. The first was about a Canadian student who took three guns and went on a shooting rampage on a Montreal College Campus. The gunmen left one woman dead and 19 others wounded before taking his own life.
A second story told of a Columbine-like plot that was caught before it was too late. Police in Green Bay, WI took two seventeen year old boys into custody. They found stock piles of guns and said that the boys had learned how to make bombs on the internet.
With stories like these in the news, it is a scary time to be a parent, or a school aged child. I think that schools have taken several steps to become safer for our children, and the fact that the plot in WI was stopped is a sign of that. I guess the bigger question is what is causing children to behave this way. There have always been school bullies and outcasts among school populations. That will never change, so why are kids striking out in such violent ways? We need to address these issues before more tragedies occur.

(Has no effect other than providing Energy.) Damage done to your opponent's Pokémon by the Pokémon Double Rainbow Energy is attached to is reduced by 10 (before applying Weakness and Resistance).

Release information
This card was released in the EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua expansion, first originating from the Japanese Magma VS Aqua: Two Ambitions expansion, with artwork by Takumi Akabane. It was later reprinted in the English EX Emerald expansion with the same artwork.

My friend, why are you allowing yourself to be so worked up over these trivial matters in the coffee industry? Instead of spreading the word about the mucked up practices and thinking, why not divert those energies towards celebrating the good stuff that's going on in coffee?
Truly, there are lots of places across America that deserve applause for their groundbreaking work. Instead too many people in our circles expend their energies getting upset over what people like Carmichael et al have to say. - 9:32 AM

Last night on "The Daily Show," Wyatt Cenac interviewed a PETA representative about a lawsuit the organization filed against Sea World for "enslaving" the killer whales they use in their shows. As you'd expect from a "TDS" field piece, Cenac skewered the lawsuit by not only talking to opponents and carefully editing jokes made while interviewing the main subject, but they followed their recent "gotcha" trend and hoisted the subject on her own petard.
Cenac found a picture of spokesman Lisa Lange with her dog on the web and said that she should be sued for enslaving her pet. As she tried to defend the difference between domesticated animals and killer whales, he also says PETA will be served because they use animals on their calendars. She couldn't argue with that. Luckily, the whale lawsuit was dismissed, so we won't have to test those boundaries. "TDS" needs to keep doing this kind of "gotcha" fake journalism, because a) it's funny and b) no one's doing it in the world of real journalism anymore.

The Way They Were: Shocking Celebrity Breakups
By Barbara Card Atkinson
Can't celeb couples just get along? With Valentine's Day fast approaching, it got us thinking about which famous couples threw in the chocolate and called it quits. Click through for a look at the most shocking recent celebrity breakups.
Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins (1986-2009)
Oh, this one hurt. It was like your mom and dad breaking up, if your folks were politically outspoken, New York edgy, and considered still doable by most of your friends. Happily unmarried for some 23 years, the couple had two sons together and then -- bam! They announced their breakup amid rumors that Sarandon had fallen for a 31-year-old pingpong entrepreneur; weeks later, she was spotted onstage with the band Of Montreal, dressed as a school marm and spanking a man (who was wearing a pig mask at the time) with a ruler. "I won't marry because I am too afraid of taking him for granted or him taking me for granted," Sarandon once said. "Maybe it will be a good excuse for a party when I am 80." It seems the party has started early. Here's hoping that Robbins doesn't show up onstage somewhere soon wearing lederhosen and wielding a rubber chicken.

Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan v. The Shield (Seth Rollins & Roman Reigns)
Everyone in this match is crazy over with the fans. Daniel Bryan gets the biggest pop of the night. It goes back and forth a bunch with each guy looking good at various points. After The Shield lays in on Randy hard, he eventually tags in Bryan who cleans house! At one point, he gets on the top turnbuckle and dropkicks Rollins and Reigns at the same time each with a different foot. The crowd goes batsh-t and then he does alternating "Yes!" kicks to each guy. He does all of his signature moves including the backflip, flying head-butt and dive outside the ring. I can't even begin to describe how match he ignites the crowd. Bryan goes for the win on Rollins. Reigns runs in and gets an RKO. Bryan accidentally nails Randy. Bryan puts Rollins in the No-Lock. Ambrose comes out from the crowd and interferes causing a DQ.
