Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
We used this product for everything! We spend a lot of time at the fairgrounds during summer time and it was perfect at going through gravel, mud, dirt, on asphalt, whatever terrain! This is why we were so drawn to it. It's super comfortable for my son and he even was able to take naps in it comfortably. The only downfall is that if I did not have an SUV this would not fit into the trunk of a car because of how bulky it is. It is very lightweight and easy to set up and take down however. If you're looking for something to last you a long time this is the stroller!

Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
This stroller was by far the best purchase I ever made! Easy to set up, use all over, through trails.. to all my son's games. Best stroller product out there
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
This stroller's basket is awesome! It holds 3 gallons of milk, 4 boxes of cereal and much more. I have had this stroller several years and it shows very little wear. Love the kid steering wheel. Great for entertaining the little one when mommy needs to shop or work out.
I wish the parent cup holders were bigger only big enough to fit small dippy cups.
This stroller is sturdy. If you are on an incline the stroller can tip over.
Child Comfort
This stroller could have more cushion on top of the Pyle wood.
This stroller pushes very well. Love the locking of swivel whelel.
This stroller is very durable. I have had it almost 7 years. Other than a little fading it looks barely used.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
I love this stroller. We were looking to upgrade from the travel system stroller we got at our baby shower that included the car seat and stroller. I really like my Chicco travel system but this stroller is far better. The really nice thing I found is that our current car seat is compatible with this stroller, which is good news with an upcoming addition. For now we use it for our two-year-old daughter and she loves it. She gets so excited when I ask her if she wants to go for a walk. The steering wheel attachment for the child section is very handy in keeping her entertained. It makes car noises and also plays music. It attaches to the tray which swivels and also has a snack/cup holders which are still usable when the car toy is attached which is very convenient. For the parents this stroller has two deep cup holders and an amazing entertainment option called the iBaby system. This system allows you to plug your MP3 player, iPod, or iPhone into it and play your music through the stroller. The wheels are large and sturdy and handle rocky and muddy terrain with ease. We usually take this stroller through rough areas such as rocks and grass to find open spaces where we can take our dog to run. Rarely are these paths paved. The seat has multiple reclining positions for your child's comfort and an adjustable five point harness. I am able fold it up and unfold it quickly with one hand and it also stands upright when folded which is nice.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
This stroller is probably not the prettiest on the market but it is durable and serves a purpose. We used it as a 2nd stroller in the city and on trails because it is not very portable because even folded up it is still quite large so putting it in the car was a bit of a challenge.
There are better looking jogging strollers on the market but this work well for the money paid.
The stroller is extremely sturdy with little chance of it tipping over.
Child Comfort
The stroller appeared to be very comfortable with no complaints from my daughter. It is not for an infant but once tehy get to toddler stage it is perfect.
I used it in the city and it could be a little bit of a pain on city streets. It is quite large so that was also an issue. However, it was great to jog with on trails.
This stroller got a ton of use across many terrains and held up well for about 3 years. When we were done with it, it was not one we could pass along to another family but it the job I bought it for.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
I received this stroller as a gift from a family member at my baby shower. At first I wasn't sure how much I'd actually use it. Being a first time mom I figured a jogging stroller had to be super uncomfortable for little children. I was wrong, my husband and I got it out to look at it, the seat is really padded and the straps aren't too hard feeling or rough. I decided to keep it and try it out when warmer weather came. My daughter was about 5 months old and she would sleep in this thing! I was so surprised, I could go out and get my exercise while she was napping. It was a win win situation. This "Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain jogger stroller" is a must for any momma who wants to stay fit and still bring your child along with you. I actually have a few different strollers at my house and this is the one we use the most. The only thing that I dislike about this stroller is how unbelievably HEAVY it is. I have never felt such a heavy awkward stroller, it makes it hard for me to take up and down our steps. Other than that, no complaints. Its a wonderful item and I am so glad we decided to keep it.
The design for this stroller is pretty nice. The thing that I liked the most about it was that it can be considered as "neutral" so it can be used for a baby boy or girl.
I have had no issues or concerns with this stroller. It is very safe for babies of all ages.
Child Comfort
My daughter was very comfortable in this stroller, most of the time my jogs would put her to sleep.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
My husband and I received the Jeep Liberty Jogging Stroller as a baby shower gift prior to having our first child. We did also have a travel system stroller that we could put the car seat in and out of, but this one is soooo much better than the travel system strollers when it comes to the quality of wheels and ability to maneuver it down a bumpy road. Travel system strollers seem to be meant for malls or places with really smooth surfaces to ride on, where this Jeep Liberty stroller can handle any kind of terrain with ease. We absolutely love it. The wheels are big and heavy-duty, you could almost compare them to a smaller bike tire.
Also, the stroller has cup and snack holders for both mom and baby, and baby even has a built in dash board with a steering wheel/gear shifter/working horn that honks and plays music. Our kids both absolutely LOVED that feature of this stroller, making walks and outings extra fun for them - they had a built-in toy. I cannot say enough great things about this stroller. It is well-built, looks nice and is easy to collapse down. It is big though, so it does take up a lot of space in a trunk or back of a vehicle, but, it's worth it!
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
Best of both world in one. This stroller is great not only for the mom who loves to run or jog, but great for the kids as well. While you are enjoying your run, there is the steering wheel with a horn that can entertain the child. Has a great turning radius. This stroller is also great for every day use as well. You can cruise thru the shopping malls in style. There is also a nice side pouch on the bottom to store diaper bag, or shopping bags. I have personally used this stroller is all types of terrain, from pavement, to trails, gravel and thru the dirt at an outdoor flea market. Worked well in all conditions. Took once on vacation, is not as easy to travel with as some of the more standard 4 wheel strollers, but can use if an additional stroller is not available. Great value for the money. Seat pad can be removed for easy ability to wash. Comfort grips on the handle makes for no sore hands after a longer run. would reccomend this stroller most for moms who are most wanting to use this stroller for outdoor activities, such as walking, jogging or running.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
We bought this stroller for our daughter before she was born and still use it to this day (she is now 14 months) Overall we like it. Some of the best features of this stroller is the amount of storage space it has. It has a large, deep basket on the bottom in the back that is great for storing the diaper bag, or your purse, or whatever you need. It also has a nice sized storage compartment in the front on the bottom. I do love how the tires are actual tires and can be inflated or deflated if needed. So far we have only had it go flat once, but luckily it was only do to needing a little more air. We also like that it has a shock system to absorb rougher terrain. Which is a great feature especially since we live out in a little more rural type area. It has multiple cup holders for mom and dad as well as baby. We also love the fact that you can remove the baby cup holder bar if need be. It is also compatible with most infant carriers so you can use it from newborn on up. Some features I am not so impressed with are the back rest does adjust forward, but it does not adjust forward all the way so my daughter is still sitting back quite a bit, and she likes to sit up more. The back wheels are a bit wide, so it can be really difficult maneuvering it around stores whose isles are a bit tight and some doors. It is pretty bulky, but does fold down ok and can be transported fairy easy. I was even able to fit it in my tiny car's trunk. We have enjoyed this stroller and don't intend on buying another one, however sometimes I wish we had purchased a bit of a smaller sized one due to the maneuvering issues. But for the money its a really nice stroller.
Comments about Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Jogger Stroller:
We love our Jeep stroller and have used it with 3 children in 6 years. It handles our country gravel roads, sidewalks, curbs and grass with ease. My husband loves the mp3 player hook up and speakers. I love the large basket below. It's easy to collapse and to set up. Not too heavy.
We have had trouble in the last two years with the front wheel shaking when it should be smooth. You can lock it, but then doing anything but going straight is almost impossible.
It is light weight, easy to collapse and set up, has a large storage basket and a fun toy bar for the kids. I wish the front wheel wouldn't wobble.

New York sues tanning salons over safety issues
Total Tan, with Albany locations, named in Schneiderman lawsuit
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is suing two tanning salon franchises, one of which operates Albany area locations, over alleged false advertising that downplays the health risks associated with indoor tanning.
The suit filed Thursday claims Portofino Spas LLC and Total Tan Inc., an upstate franchise with five locations in the Capital Region, minimized scientific evidence linking tanning to increased cancer risk, promoted indoor tanning as a safe way to reap health benefits and highlighted the safety of indoor tanning compared to outdoor tanning.
"Make no mistake about it: There is nothing safe about indoor tanning," Schneiderman said in a statement. "The use of ultraviolet devices increases exposure to cancer-causing radiation and puts millions of Americans in serious danger -— young adults, in particular. ... Advertising and marketing cannot be used as a tool to confuse and endanger New York consumers."
In a statement issued Wednesday, Total Tan's owners slammed Schneiderman's claims, and included statements made by Siena College business and marketing professor Michael Pepe as part of a sworn affidavit stating that the company's advertising complies with federal and state law.
"The attorney general's claim that Total Tan produced misleading advertising is not true," the owners said. "We are a small, upstate, family-owned business that refuses to be intimidated by Mr. Schneiderman, who is trying to impose his own view of the world on our industry and the citizens of upstate New York."
Total Tan also sent around a 2013 complaint filed with the Joint Commission on Public Ethics claiming that a former investigator for the attorney general's office who looked into Total Tan is the wife of a former company vice president whose employment was terminated.
Schneiderman's office declined comment on the JCOPE filing. A source with knowledge of the inquiry said investigative materials from the former investigator were not used in the lawsuit.
The attorney general's office also sent notices of intent to sue to Beach Bum Tanning Salons and Planet Fitness. Schneiderman alleges Beach Bum made misleading statements and misrepresented the healthfulness of indoor tanning.
The attorney general claims Planet Fitness exerted little oversight over customers'' tanning bed access and violated disclosure and safety requirements required by state law.
In a statement, Planet fitness spokeswoman McCall Gosselin said the company has been working with five franchisees found to have allegedly violated tanning laws "to emphasize the importance of following all applicable state laws."

A 15-year-old boy shot dead in the 9th Ward on Sunday has been identified. Corey Martin, of New Orleans, died on the scene, said John Gagliano, chief investigator for the Orleans Parish coroner's office.
Martin was killed around 7:15 p.m. in the 1400 block of Bartholomew Street, near Claiborne Avenue, authorities said.
New Orleans police said officers responded to a call of a "male down" in the alleyway of a house, and found Martin suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the body.
NOPD has not named any suspects or provided a possible motive.
The homicide came after another teenager was wounded in gunfire earlier in the evening. A boy, 17, was struck by bullets while at a playground in the 1800 block of St. Roch Avenue.
Police are searching for a suspect and motive in the homicide. Officers ask anyone with information on this shooting to call NOPD Detective Gregory Hamilton at 504.658.5300 or Crimestoppers at 504.822.1111.
NOTE: This story has been updated since it was first published with the correct location of the shooting, which was 1400 block of Bartholomew, not the 2200 block of Bartholomew, which was erroneously reported by police.

Americans for Prosperity (AFP) Foundation-Arizona with Arizona School Choice Trust will host a town hall, Restoring American Exceptionalism – Arizona Townhall, January 22 at Radisson Phoenix-Chandler from 6-8 p.m. as part of National School Choice Week. The purpose of the townhall is to promote school choice as an avenue to improve the performance of American students. According to the event website they want to support successful schools and hold failing schools accountable.
"It's time to put children and parents first in the education policy debate, not the bureaucrats and not the unions," Tom Jenney, director of AFP Foundation-Arizona, said in a press release. "Governments in Arizona spend over $9,000 a year on the average child in the public district schools, and yet 71 percent of eighth graders are not proficient in math and 73 percent are no proficient in reading."
There will be a simulcast event with Fox News contributor Juan Williams and Hugh Hewitt that will also be aired live on the internet at www.PutKidsFirst.com. Tom Jenney, Education Policy Director Jonathan Butcher and Arizona School Choice Trust Executive Director Liz Moser Dreckman will hold a Q&A session on education policy reform.
This is one of almost 50 events taking place nationwide between January 22 and 28. Free tickets are available.

Original sessions produced by Albert Marx
Produced for CD release by Jordi Pujol
"Med Flory has enjoyed both a profitable music career and successful stints as a television and film writer and actor. His alto sax and clarinet work are deeply influenced by the classic bebop sound, notably the playing of Charlie Parker. Though he doesn't directly emulate Parker, Flory's sound, phrasing and approach reflect his reverence for his music. He played clarinet and alto with Claude Thornhill in the '50s, and tenor with Woody Herman. Flory formed his own New York band in 1954, then moved to the West Coast two years later. He organized a big band that performed at the inaugural Monterey concert in 1958. Flory played with Terry Gibbs' nonet and orchestra in the late '50s and early '60s, recording with both units and also cutting sessions with Art Pepper and Herman on baritone. Flory's acting career blossomed in the '60s, as he began appearing on many television shows and in films. He also wrote screenplays and trimmed his playing dates. During Flory's sessions with Pepper, the sax section played arrangements of Parker improvisations. Flory and Joe Maini began transcribing the solos, but after Maini's death in 1964 Flory stopped the process. When Buddy Clark showed interest, Flory not only began transcribing again, he co-formed a band with Clark to play the material. Supersax began in 1972 and won a Grammy for its debut recording the next year. Flory became the sole leader when Clark departed in 1975, and maintained its operation into the '80s. He also continued to juggle writing and acting. Flory has recorded as a leader for Jubille and World Pacific as a session leader, and for Capitol, MPS and Columbia with Supersax."

Today will officially mark the end of this story as it doesn't involve a crazy conservative white guy. On the contrary, it's a black liberal kook who's apparently part of the absurd "Raise the Wage' movement thats's big in lefty circles. So now the story will be buried. Just a good thing this nutcase didn't hurt anyone.
The man who drew a gun at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center on Monday previously called himself a "prophet of God" and said he didn't obey man's law.
U.S. Capitol Police said Larry Russell Dawson of Antioch, Tennessee, has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon and assault on a police officer while armed. Dawson, 66, was shot by a U.S. Capitol Police officer and is hospitalized in stable but critical condition, police said.
At a press conference outside the Capitol on Monday evening, U.S. Capitol Police Chief Matthew Verderosa said that at approximately 2:40 p.m. Dawson "drew what appeared to be a weapon and pointed it at officers" during a routine screening at the Visitor Center. One officer fired and struck Dawson.
The police officer was not injured, contrary to previous reports. A female bystander sustained a non-life-threatening injury during the incident, police said.
Dawson, the pastor of St. Luke's Church outside Nashville, previously wrote on his church's website that he was leading a "movement" to urge Congress to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour.
Nothing like a narrative being demolished in record time. Oddly, we don't hear any caterwauling about gun control from the usual suspects now. Weird, huh?

Quick Reference
One of the two main branches of Śaivism described in the Śaiva Āgamas or Tantras (the other being the mantramārga, or 'path of mantras'). The atimārga, which is entered on solely in order to attain liberation, is open only to ascetics. It has two divisions, the Pāśupata, and the Lākula, itself a development from within the Pāśupata tradition; both are concerned with Śiva in his wild and terrible form of Rudra.

Faculty of Science, University of Auckland was established in 1883, as Auckland University College as a part of the University of New Zealand. A disused courthouse and jail served as premises for the 95 students and 4 teaching staff. The roll increased slowly but steadily during the remainder of the 19th century; by 1901 it had risen to 156 students. Most students were enrolled part-time, training as teachers or law clerks, although after 1905 the number of commerce students rose markedly.
During this time, the University focused on teaching: research was not expected, and was rarely performed by teaching staff. Nevertheless, some students carried out impressive early research, most notably in chemistry.

A piece of computer code capable of repeatedly guessing a password has been determined as a likely tool used in the high profile cyber-attack that exposed intimate photographs of tens of celebrities.
The malware, discovered on software website GitHub targets Apple's Find My iPhone application with a brute force attack, trying to get hold of the password without being locked out or detected by the user. If successful, the attacker can use the password to access related Apple services protected by an identical password, including iCloud, from where the sensitive images of tens of world famous actresses and models have reportedly been stolen
Technology site The Next Web, who discovered the code said that although there was no direct evidence, the timing of the discovery and the attack suggest the two could be linked.
"The Python script found on GitHub appears to have allowed a malicious user to repeatedly guess passwords on Apple's 'Find my iPhone' service without alerting the user or locking out the attacker," said The Next Web's Owen Williams.
"Given enough patience and the apparent hole being open long enough, the attacker could use password dictionaries to guess common passwords rapidly. Many users use simple passwords that are the same across services so it's entirely possible to guess passwords using a tool like this."
The Next Web tested the code but found it was no longer working, locking the attackers out after about five wrong attempts to enter the password. This suggests Apple has already issued a patch. A comment on the GitHub website below the original post with the malware code said: "The end of the fun, Apple has just patched." However, Apple has not yet commented on the breach.
The malware reportedly used a list of 500 most common passwords as approved by Apple to perform the attack on Find my iPhone.
Stars including actress Jennifer Lawrence and model Kate Upton saw intimate photos posted on forum site 4chan on Sunday evening.
Experts have pointed to the weakness of many internet users' passwords, and basic security knowledge as being the cause for the widespread leak.
iCloud is Apple's own cloud service, a wireless storage facility that can be used to access files remotely. Other notable services include Dropbox and Google Drive, which enable users to keep more of their files close to hand without taking up huge amounts of memory on their devices.
"Cyber security is not just a technology problem, humans are very much key to its success. In our day-to-day work we see too many cases of employees divulging sensitive information without first verifying the legitimacy of the request," said Rob Cotton, CEO at web security experts NCC Group
"People often point the finger at technology when they've been the victim of a cyber-attack, but poor password choices or naivety in the face of a seemingly innocent email is regularly to blame."
Human error, in a variety of ways, said Mr Cotton, often played a part.
"Last year NCC Group successfully compromised the iCloud account of a journalist as part of an authorised demonstration using a mixture of social engineering techniques and subterfuge - and the amount of information we were able to access was shocking," he said.
Separately, Wired reporter Mat Honan had his iCloud account breached and his devices wiped after hackers used a mixture of public information and social engineering when contacting Apple technical support, in order to gain access.
Stefano Ortolani, security researcher at online experts Kaspersky Lab said: "In order to make your private data more secure, you should cherry-pick the data you store in the cloud and know, and control when the data is set to automatically leave your device.
"For instance, in iCloud there is a feature called "My Photo Stream" which uploads new photos to the cloud as soon as the device is connected to Wi-Fi; this is to keep photos synchronised across all your devices. Disabling this option might be a good starting point to be a bit more in control."
While the security of the cloud will now come under increased scrutiny, Ortolani points out that some element of risk has always existed.
"The security of a cloud service depends on its provider," he said. "However, it's important to consider that as soon as you hand over any data including photos to a third-party service, you need to be aware that you automatically lose some control of it. This is also the case for when you upload something online."

Participating in web forums is a fun diversion, and mobile technology makes forums even more accessible. Even with the best mobile browsers, though, the rendering can be, well, interesting on tablets and smartphones.
Tapatalk promises to streamline associated forums into a tight, streamlined package.
For the uninitiated, Tapatalk comes in two pieces: a forum plug-in, used by the forum administrator, and the application, which is procured by forum users. I found that forums that did have plugin installed did work quite well on my mobile device.
Most of my favorite forums were supported, which, for me, was the most important test of potential value. With the Tapatalk ID feature, I was able to create a settings-saving profile that followed me from device to device. Next, I was able to check through the long list of forums that work with Tapatalk. Upon finding the one that I wanted, it was as simple as entering in my forum credentials, and I was online. I was able to replicate the process with other forums as well.
The user interface is Tapatalk's true strength. The developers somehow figured out how to pack in a good degree of functionality into an attractive minimalist appearance that feels custom-made for mobile devices. Having access to 6 of my "regular" forums, all with a similar look and feel, was pretty nice. Tapatalk also allowed me to tweak the appearance; I could change the color and font, and there were themes to purchase as well. I found that I could create a signature, and could also adjust things from loading behavior to the number of posts that appeared per page.
Posting and viewing were close to fantastic. Each forum was split into three tabs each: Unread, All and Participated. I liked that the "Thank/Like" post functionality of some forums was reflected in the app, as well as support for BB Code. I was able to set notifications for PMs and was even able to make adjustments to my forum Profile from within the app. I could also share threads, mark favorites, subscribe to threads and more.
Now, I actually found that for several forums, I actually preferred using Tapatalk to using/viewing the forum on mobile browser or even on a full-fledged computer. It is just easier and more streamlined. When you toss in the support provided by the developer, it becomes an even better value.
I did find the subscribe feature to be a bit wonky, and it is probably selfish to wish most themes were not a premium feature, but I did find it easy to forgive the developers, as Tapatalk did manage to bring forums alive, and even make them more fun to use. That isn't an easy task.

What Our Customers are Saying
From: Kelly M.
Cole Electric was a joy to deal with from start to finish. We emailed Scott, the owner through Angie's list who immediately called us back to set up a time to give us an estimate on the electrical work that we needed to have accomplished in our home. They showed up five minutes early with four guys, dressed neatly in matching Cole Electric uniforms. They walked around our house and fixed little things: like a cracked electrical outlet and a switch that needed to be changed for an electrical outlet. We estimated that they did about $150 worth of work and did not charge us! They gave us a detailed written estimate of the work to be done and what it would cost us.
My husband and I talked about it for two days and then we called them back to schedule our appointment for Friday, 01/25/13. Once again Cole Electric showed up early and neatly dressed. They began the job at 8 a.m. and put protective canvas coverings over all of our furniture. There were about six guys and what they call a "runner" who runs for different supplies. Turns out that the runner was Scott Cole's son. Everyone was respectful and kind to me, my husband and our two dogs. Our house was built in 1950 so to say our electrical was antiquated is an understatement. They changed out our electrical panel, put in three new outlets. About 3/4 through the job Mike, the guy in charge on our project, arranged for the inspector to come out and inspect our new electrical. It passed with flying colors!
When Cole Electric finished the job, two of our new light fixtures had not arrived yet. Mike told us to call Scott and let him know when the new fixtures arrived and they would come back and install the new lights in our bathroom. Two days later the lights arrived and I called Scott. Within an hour, Mike & another one of the Cole Electric guys came in and 15 minutes later they were finished. They took all the garbage out to our garbage cans and cleaned up neatly.
Scott Cole and his employees, embody the word: "Professionalism." Saying they are electricians doesn't quite fit. Artisans, Craftsmen & Electrical Concierges would all more accurately capture who they are as a company. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with them. They are AMAZING. The depths of our gratitude to Cole Electric far exceeds words.
Dear Mr. Cole,
I would like to let you know how pleased I am with the work that your company did on upgrading my electrical needs. The work was done in a very professional and timely manner. The workers were very pleasant and courteous at all times. It was a pleasure to watch them do their work.
I was very pleased in how they cleaned up and removed all of the waste materials that was left from removing old wire and hardware. The place was left as if no work had been done.
I will keep you in mind if there is anyone that needs electrical work done. I know you will be reasonable and honest in your dealings with them. To me that is more important than getting a cheaper price. As the old saying goes "you get what you pay for".
William D.
Dear Sir/Ma'am;
Today I called your company and arranged to have some electricians come out to do some diagnostics and possibly repair within my home. A 6:00 appointment was arranged.
The two gentlemen who came by were prompt. I understand that in the kind of business that you do, it is not always possible to be right on time, due to working with the needs of other customers. But I was impressed nonetheless.
Not only were the two gentlemen prompt, they were also nice, friendly and professional. You may feel it is their job to be that way however I've had many contractors in my house and you'd be surprised at how unprofessional and down right scary some of them can be!
I plan on recommending you to anyone who has a need for electrical repair.

Rogers users have a new option in the stable in the form of the Samsung Galaxy Spica. Unfortunately those that do hop on board will be commiserating with the Motorola Backflip crowd running Android 1.5 in an Android 2.1 world.
As we reported last month, there is a leaked Android 2.1 ROM for this device floating around out there already, so you can probably anticipate being brought up-to-date real soon. However, I will caution you that "real soon" doesn't always mean what you think it means.
OS version concerns aside this device is a bit of a study in contrasts as it has some nice features while definitely falling short in other areas, but at only $80 it is hard to complain too much. It also benefits from its close proximity to the Backflip release as this thing shines by comparison (This one comes with Google Apps!).
The processor weighs in at 800 Mhz, making it one of the faster (on paper anyway) Android devices on the market. The capacitive 3.2 inch screen at 320×480 is fine, but an AMOLED or preferably Samsung's new "Super AMOLED" would have been particularly nice to see. Internal memory is pegged at only 150 MB which is definitely going to fill up really quick on you. DivX support is still fairly unique and welcome, although HTC will be bringing it soon as well.
According to Rogers it does not support their 7.2 Mbps 3.5G so you will be capped at 3.6 Mbps download which during the latter period of your 3 year contract is going to feel pretty pokey. Returning to the positive at 12.9mm it is the thinnest Android device presently available on Rogers, so if you typically find yourself in some slim fit jeans this is probably the way to go for you.
Looking through Rogers available Android handsets they have built a portfolio of very similar devices and could really use a higher end device to stand apart from the rest; this is definitely not that device.
Any Rogers owners out there taking the plunge with this one or are waiting on the Acer Liquid E or holding out hope for one of HTC or Motorola's latest and greatest to find their way to Rogers?
On another note, let us know if there are any commercials running for the new Samsung. After their Behold II campaign sprung up months after the release of the device it would be interesting to know if they are taking a different approach with this one.

*Some Little Spoilers Flittered Though Out, So You Have Been Warned! *
Alexa Mayfair is about to be just another high-school graduate when a tornado strikes her hometown of Fortraven, almost killing her. This one incident changes everything Alexa has ever thought, felt or know & she struggles to grasp this new & baffling world.
Saved my an Angel, Doomed by a Devil & in Love with The Fallen Alexa must Must Push the boundaries of Common Sense & fall whole heartedly into love if she's to survive.
Carol really brought back the feelings of first love which will emerge young & old, while avoiding being condescending & playing into too much teenage angst.
"The sun broke through the clouds & appeared to burn them away in a matter of seconds. Warmth returned to the chilled air but my body still felt cold & numb. Droplets turned to diamonds on each blade of grass. I closed my eyes in an effort to change what was in front of me but when I opened them again the scene remained the same - an empty space where he had stood"
It's the kind of book to read while lounging in a hammock sipping ice tea on holidays.........I would label it as "put-down-able" but that doesn't make it a bad book in ways sort of the opposite it was quite a refreshing read that I could brisk through in my luxurious spare time through out the day. The pocket size chapters just added to the appeal.
The Writing styles flows nicely & is easy to read, while still being engaging, tho the ending did tend to drag on...But the ending was juicy enough to want more!
Alexa is a delightful, kind hearted & amicable recluse. I personally found her to be one of the most realistic & relatable female leads that I've read in YA in some time.....l.She's by no means perfect but that's part of the charm I guess.

Aventurine Heart by Carole Wood – Book Review
Carole Wood's début novel, Aventurine Heart is a treat for lovers of young adult fiction. Packed full with Angels, Demons, and a first love. What more could you ask for? This is a story of a young girl named Alexa who falls in love. She is then introduced to a whole new world of supernatural beings that tries her sanity and will power.
Carole Wood writes with a strong attention to detail and uses vivid imagery to pull the reader into the story. Wood paints vibrant settings and makes us care about the characters while we watch them grow.
At times, I found that there were drifting tangents that narrated unnecessary details which slowed the pacing a touch more than needed.
Even so, this is a must read book. There are many five star moments and I look forward to picking up her next tale. Wood is definitely an Author to watch for and I cannot wait until her next book comes out.

It was Cash Wednesday for a winter resident who won $140,000 in the largest Seminole Bingo jackpot ever.
Bud Ward, a spokesman for the Hollywood area bingo hall, said the woman preferred not to be identified.
After 19 numbers were called, her eight selections were read aloud in front of a cheering capacity crowd. Most couldn`t believe the giant prize had eluded them.
Starting at $10,000, the jackpot grew by $4,000 each night. Players choose eight numbers. If the numbers are among the first 20 called, an instant celebrity is born.
About a dozen spectators watched from outside the front door, unable to get a seat in the smoky, 1,400-seat hall.
Floor clerk Kim Fisher said that once the ``Do It Yourself`` super jackpot game starts, the world stops for anyone holding a bingo card.
``These people are out for blood,`` she said of the competitors hoping for B- 2 or G-55. ``You can hear a pin drop in there. The doors are locked and no one comes in or out until the game is over.``
In the eight years that the Seminole bingo hall has been open, the previous high jackpot was $110,000.
Many people were leaving the State Road 7 bingo hall late on Wednesday night after the jackpot was won. Suddenly, the $500 prize in the next game didn`t seem worth waiting around for.
Members of the bingo faithful began lining up as early as 8 a.m. hoping to get their lucky spot for the jackpot game. But the bingo bonanza also brought out some non-believers, fortune hunters who come to play only after the jackpot rises past the $100,000 mark.
One self-confessed jackpot-chaser was North Miami Beach doctor Richard Steinberg. After winning $167 during his first visit to Seminole Bingo on Sunday, he caught jackpot-fever.

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL — The holiday season is picking up steam which means plans are already coming together for the 2014 Carnival festivities, with the official dates of February 28th to March 4th this year. The major samba schools have announced their Enredo (Theme) as well as named their Rainha de Bateria (Queen of the Drums), and music and costume design has long been underway for Brazil's biggest party of the year.
The Carnival weekend schedule at the Sambódromo has the Grupo de Acesso (Access Group) parading on Friday, February 28th and Saturday, March 1st, while the premier-class Grupo Especial (Special Group) will perform on Sunday, March 2nd and Monday, March 3rd.
The ever important Bloco (street parties) schedule has not been announced yet and is expected to be made public in mid-January. Last year the city authorized permits for 492 blocos, adding 67 more than in 2012, however moving more out of Zona Sul (South Zone) in an effort to spread the celebrations across the city more evenly.
For the Special Group samba school competition, last year's champions Vila Isabel will have television personality Sabrina Sato lead the way again as the Rainha de Bateria, with the theme, "Retratos de um Brasil Plural" (Portraits of Biodiversity in Brazil).
The other Rainhas de Bateria showcasing the rhythm of their samba schools are Viviane Araújo dancing for the second time for Salgueiro; Christiane Torloni for Grande Rio, a finalist in last year's competition; Ana Paula Evangelista for Mocidade Independente de Padre Miguel; Cris Vianna for Imperatriz Leopoldinense.
Also the enchanting actress Juliana Alves will lead Unidos da Tijuca; Laynara Teles for Império da Tijuca; Raphaela Gomes for São Clemente; Evelin, for Mangueira; Rayssa Oliveira for Beija-Flor, 2013's runner up; Bruna Bruno for União da Ilha do Governador and finally Patricia Nery for Portela.
Carnival 2011 champions, Beija-Flor, one of the most popular samba schools in Rio, will honor the former director general of TV Globo José Bonifacio Sobrinho, "the Boni," as well as the history of Brazilian television.
Also Grande Rio, a finalist in last year's festivities with their semi-controversial theme examining Brazil's oil industry, chose this year to showcase the history of Maricá, a city outside Rio.
The "Rei Momo e Rainha," or King Momo and Carnival Queen, have been chosen, and the key to the Cidade de Samba (Samba City) will be given to Rei Momo Wilson Dias da Costa on February 28th, marking the beginning of Carnival festivities followed by parades from the Grupo Acesso division.
On March 4th, Fat Tuesday, the parade for Escolas de Samba Mirins, the next generation of the Grupo Especial, and the Banda de Ipanema bloco group will take place at the Sambódromo. The finalists will have one last chance to show off their floats and sambas at the Desfile das Campeãs (Champions Parade), which will take place on Saturday March 8th.

Pickering, ON L1V 5R2
Be the first Weblocal.ca user to add photos or videos of Cielito Lindo Inc
Popped by for a quick dinner yesterday.
Ordered a glass of red wine sangria which was good.
The guacamole was very good! It tasted very fresh.
I got the appetizer portion of the shrimp in garlic and wine sauce. I got it with bread instead of rice. It was good too.
I live in the west end of the city and am rarely in Pickering but I highly recommend this place!
Found this little gem about 3 years a go and been going ever since. The Decor is very simple some tacky decorations and Spanish music witch is a nice touch. But don't let the decorations fool you this a awesome little restaurant. I usually start with a shrimp appetizer witch comes with toasted bread for dipping. Next I get a shrimp burrito witch comes with beans rice and a salad. Have also that... more
Great atmosphere and food was good. Nice fresh chips and salsa. I had the steak, nice spicy touch and the price was fair. Will be returning

Pet Owner in Kansas City
We recently moved to Kansas City, Missouri, and don't plan to do anyt travel soon. However, we had a pet sitter where we previously lived and found her to be a wonderful addition to our family. We did some overnight travel but mostly went on long day trips that would leave Wrigley without care too long. She is a poodle mix, small and adorable! At 13 she is remarkably peppy on walks and sleeps when inside most of the day. She had a mild form of epilepsy and gets a small pill morning and night plus one pill in the morning for her joints. She is fed in the morning and again around 4:30 with a treat each time we return from a walk; walks take place in the morning, mid-day, and evening. Sometimes we walk her more than that but don't require much more from a sitter. Our sitter came in the early morning, around --..., and again around 8:30-9. Each visit was 30 minutes, $15.00, and always involved a walk and some play. Tammy left us a report of each visit tht reminded us of when our kids were little since she reported on each pee and poop plus Wrigley's activities and mood.

A tale of two women: Paris set to get first female mayor
Latest update : 2014-03-19
As France prepares to go to the polls this weekend in nationwide local elections, the outcome for Paris in at least one respect is a dead cert – the French capital is set to have its first woman mayor.
In the lead – by less than three points – is Anne Hidalgo, a member of the ruling Socialist Party (PS). Her popularity is in stark contrast to the country's Socialist President François Hollande, who is languishing in the polls as he struggles to turn around France's ailing economy.
Just behind her is Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, 40, known in France by her initials NKM, who was a minister under former right-wing president Nicolas Sarkozy and is openly ambitious for a shot at the presidency.
While Hollande struggles to recover from record unpopularity, any lack of confidence in PS policies was markedly absent in the capital's 14th arrondissement (district) on Tuesday night. It was here that Hidalgo addressed an enthusiastic crowd in support of fellow Socialist Carine Petit, who is running to lead the 14th's town hall.
Hidalgo, 54, born in Spain and naturalised French as a child, has spent the last 13 years at the heart of the French capital's political machine as deputy to retiring Socialist mayor Bertrand Delanoë.
13 years of innovation
And she is confident. Rarely talking about herself in the first person, Hidalgo vaunted 13 years of achievements under Delanoë, focusing particularly on the transformation of Paris's public transport system, which has profoundly changed many Parisians' daily lives.
The runaway success of the city's flagship Vélib' bike-sharing and Autolib' electric car-sharing schemes, as well as massive investment in new tramways across the city, have been hugely popular with Parisians and will certainly pay her political dividends.
"Our policies have been a gamble on the future of clean transport in a major capital city," she told the cheering audience in the city-owned Rosa Parks sports hall. "We have won this gamble."
Speaking after Hidalgo, Delanoë said these achievements, as well as providing tens of thousands of Parisians access to social housing "in the face of rampant property speculation", had been achieved despite "persistent and systematic opposition by the [conservative] right".
NKM's frenetic energy
Hidalgo's rival NKM is a firmly established member of that conservative stable. Her open ambition and high-energy campaigning contrasts sharply with Hidalgo's low-key confidence in the run-up to Sunday's vote.
The difference is so marked that French daily L'Express described the race as "the tortoise and the hare", confidently predicting a positive outcome for Hidalgo and disappointment for NKM, who has campaigned with frenetic energy.
As well as being confident that her 13-year record under Delanoë will play well with Parisians, Hidalgo will also benefit from the city's indirect voting system, in which the mayor is chosen by the 163 members of the Paris City Council.
These members represent the capital's 20 "arrondissements". Socialist support is higher in those districts with the largest populations, and so more councillors tend to be Socialist.
Sunday's vote is a first round. According to all recent polls, a second round is inevitable as neither candidate enjoys majority support among members or the city council. French daily Le Parisien puts Hidalgo's Socialists on 38 percent and NKM's conservatives lagging slightly behind, with 35.5 percent.
Whatever the outcome, the final result on Sunday March 30 will be historic.
A woman is set to take the helm in Paris, winning France's most coveted political position, for the first time.

The People Who Don't Know I'll Name Them Today
It's late and I'm feeling reckless so I'm going to do something I never do--throw down an unedited blog post. This decision makes me want to toss back a couple shots of bourbon with a little xanax because I am the worst sort of hyper-editing perfectionist freak. I feel like that phrase YOLO was invented for way better stuff than this, but here goes.
Later today we will make our way over to the house of our friends Anne and Bob for dinner. About a million years ago when there were five children who were 9 and under, we moved to New Jersey and Anne's parents invited us to their home with their other five grown but not yet married children, cousins, aunts, grandmas and stray clergy members. For four years we did this and they were the most magical Thanksgivings you can imagine with wild soccer games and 4th grade musical performances and 20-somethings who played endless games of Tetris. I remember thinking that this gigantic celebration was exactly why I'd always wanted a big family. Drs. John and Yvonne Driscoll head up that clan and live in such a way that you always know there is an open seat at their table--smart and funny, kind but very real, these two raised Anne, John, Billy, Margaret, Kevin and Michael to be extraordinary human beings. For the years in which they made us feel that we were part of their clan and for the fact that I now serve Aunt Sheila's green beans every year, I am so very grateful.
Grandview High School gave me many things - love of Funk, a newspaper that got me writing, and not insignificant street cred decades later. It also gave me friends like H. Clayton Thomas and Roger Denney, two of the finest men I know. Both were stalwart individualists in high school. One went East, the other South and neither returned, but the magic of the internet gave them back to us and every time I see their names, I relent a little on the grudge I have toward Facebook. They love their wives and it is evident, even from a distance that they have raised their children with care. They share their politics softly and their rock and roll loud and when they speak of old friends it is with the sort of encouragement that lets us know the thread which unspooled them, still connects. Both celebrated birthdays in the past week. My gratitude for their presence on this earth is as solid as they are.
Tonight Yessie and the girls came over for dinner. It's been three months since we met and two since Polo was deported and in that time we've become real friends. The story of her life is one that reads like a novel and yet she does not see herself as extraordinary. She just finished her GED, is working nights and raising daughters who are smart and sassy and so much fun, and every time we are together she wears her strength and peace like armor. Knowing her and getting to be a part of her life is the sort of privilege for which I feel severely unqualified.
Last month I traveled to the City of Brotherly Love and spent a week with the tribe that is Quintessence Theatre Group. The ten Brothellos, their fearless leader Alex Burns, Ellen & Al Brown and my sister wives Lisa and Mara Burns, received me with the openest of open arms and gave me a sense of belonging the likes of which I will carry with me for a long time. Would that they were here and I could feed them one and all today.
There are more, of course, whose lives move through the collective unconscious every day and who, tomorrow, will be in my heart as well. If you've ever told me you read this blog, you're on that list. The encouragement I've gotten from you has given me a voice, freed me up to tell the truth and made me want to be a writer. Your generosity is a gift.
Happy Thanksgiving.

The Basics of State Social Media Laws
Posted by mypayrollhr
0 comments
Featured, HR Noteworthy
Social media privacy laws are trending across the country. At present 21 states have enacted legislation restricting employer access to the personal social media accounts of employees and applicants, and this trend is likely to continue. While the laws vary in their wording and their specific regulations they cover mostly the same ground.
Here are their common restrictions:
- The laws generally prohibit employers from requiring or requesting that employees or applicants disclose their login credentials, user names, or passwords.
- The laws say that employers cannot require or request that an employee or applicant access their personal social media account in their presence or add employees to their contacts. If an account is private employers should not try to gain access to it.
- The law prohibits retaliation from employers. For example, if an employer were to discipline an employee for refusing to disclose what is on their social media timeline or not hire an applicant who refused to do the same, they could get in trouble.
While the main purpose of these laws are to protect employee privacy, they do have clauses pertaining to employer's rights and responsibilities.
- Employers still maintain control over any professional social media accounts held by their business. An employer owns the accounts and have the right to access them. Ideally they should always have the current credentials to access company social media even if they assign someone to oversee the accounts.
- An employer may request access to an employee's personal social media if they are conducting an investigation into that employee's alleged misconduct, and have reasonable belief that the employee's personal social media activity is relevant to the investigation.
In conclusion, if you as an employer have employees working in any of the states with social media privacy laws, it would be a good idea to examine the specific laws to make sure that you are not in violation. Even if your state has no social media privacy laws, we recommend as a best practice that you create a policy that respects the privacy of employees and applicants, while also giving you the option of request access if it is relevant to an investigation.
