In a clash of heroes,the kingdom is born. At the end of the ninth century, King Alfred of Wessex is in ill health; his heir, an untested youth. His enemy, the Danes, having failed to conquer Wessex, now see their chance for victory. Led by the sword of savage warrior Harald Bloodhair, the Viking hordes attack. But Uhtred, Alfred's reluctant warlord, proves his worth, outwitting Harald and handing the Vikings one of their greatest defeats. For Uhtred, the sweetness of victory is soon overshadowed by tragedy.
Breaking with Alfred, he joins the Vikings, swearing never again to serve the Saxon king. Instead, he will reclaim his ancestral fortress on the Northumbrian coast. Allied with his old friend Ragnar--and his old foe Haesten--he aims to invade and conquer Wessex itself. Yet fate has different plans. The Danes of East Anglia and the Vikings of Northumbria are plotting the conquest of all Britain. When Alfred's daughter pleads with Uhtred for help, he cannot refuse her request. in a desperate gamble, he takes command of a demoralized Mercian army, leading them in an unforgettable battle on a blood-soaked field beside the Thames.
In The Burning Land, Bernard Cornwell, "The reigning king of historical fiction" (USA Today), delivers a rousing saga of Anglo-Saxon England--an irresistible new chapter in his thrilling Saxon Tales, the epic story of the birth of England and the legendary king who made it possible.
I was REALLY disappointed with this book. The narrator is SO different than the ones that came before that I found it distracting. His pronunciation of the place names, and people, are so different that it makes it seem like a completely different story instead of one in a series.

the story is as good as the rest, but the narrator is not nearly as good as john keeble.

I have enjoyed this series so much that I have even bought the books directly from England and had them shipped to me so I wouldn't have to wait for the next installment! Uhtred of Bebbanburg is a wonderful, rough and rowdy character to view these tales through. These books have also drawn me to research the history that they are based on. I must say, I'm impressed with the quality of the historical accuracy and the overall texture of the stories.
Trust me, if you like history in the slightest you will be engrossed in the writings of Bernard Cornwell. This books is yet another spectacular example of his fine skills as a storyteller.

I love all of these books! This is a great continuation of the story of Uthred. I do miss the previous narrator. It was hard to get used to the different style of reading. Once I got used to the new narrator I was able to enjoy the story. Overall I loved it!

I have waited a long time to get this book and it was excellent. This series is quite addictive as I now have my wife reading them. This book kept me on the edge the entire time! However there was a narrator change between the last two and some of the names are pronounced differently but the story itself is wonderful and I cant wait to read/listen to the next one!

Historical novels stand of fall on detail. Cornwell writes as if he has been to the 9th century Wessex. Each of his battles poses different tactical questions and different answers. His accounts of the fire and slaughter, and of Viking methods of extorting money, would seem gruesomely exaggerated if they weren't so often based on old legends or confirmed by archaeology. "Saxon Tale's series is about the battle for supremacy between the Saxon and the Danes in 9th century Britain. Uhtred of Bebbanburg, a fictional character is the star of the series and battles for Alfred the Great of Wessex to unify Britain. The book is written in Uhtred's voice as he looks back on an exciting life. Historically Cornwell's, major contribution is to tell the story of Ethelflaed, an actual heroine forgotten by most scholars. She is the daughter of Alfred married to the leader of Mercia. She became known as "Lady of the Mercian's." Cornwell is adept at enveloping his fictional character into British history. His use of geography, instruments of battle, strategy and ancient vocabulary is faultless. Cornwell is the master of battle scenes. Bernard Cornwell is probably the best historical novelist writing today. This series is about the battle to unify Britain by the Saxons. This is a great way to learn some British history. I greatly enjoyed the great baritone voice of John Lee, who did an excellent job narrating the story.

I am addicted to audio books, and have listened to hundreds of them. Cornwell is one of the very best writers of historical fiction. This book is full of action, with vivid descriptions of battles, a solid story line, and well-developed characters. I was entertained throughout the entire book. Narration was excellent. Cornwell has the ability to make me feel like i'm back in time. He has a unique way of helping the reader understand everyday life, in the 800's, in the context of action and intrigue. It never drags. This book, like AGINCOURT, is an excellent book, and the narration is so good that I would recommend the audible version over print. I highly recommend this book.

The Burning Land is another episode in the life of Uhtred from the Saxon Chronicles, in my personal opinion I much prefer the narration by John Lee than that of Jamie Glover who narrated the 4 books of the Saxon Chronicle. His accents are very good and he manages to convey the right sense of occasion in his delivery. As always Bernard Cornwell's descriptive writing style makes it so easy to imagine the scene as it is described, all in all a compelling read with good pace and a reasonable plot.

Would you listen to The Burning Land again? Why?
Yes - I enjoyed the story and the narrator was ok.
What did you like best about this story?
It is very descriptive just like the earlier books of the series. There was an allusion to something I never expected - if it is indeed true, then I am stunned and disappointed in the element of the storyline, but everything else was great.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
No. The narrator's dynamics (in particular, his emotion) was not up to snuff. There was an event in this story which would have crushed Uhtred's heart (1st person narrative) - you never felt the anguish that should have been there.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Any additional comments?
Audio publishers - if you have a great narrator, commit the series to them. They know the books, the characters, and have established the listener's expectations. It's like book publishers changing the author of a long running series (Fleming, Ludlum, Clancy) - readers lose interest because it just isn't the same.

Horrible narrator... I ended up asking for a refund and skipping this book. I have no idea why Lee was chosen but may Odin show mercy.

The musings and meanderings of a mixed media artist and yarn junkie who loves to knit,spin, crochet, make elemental figures, write and enjoy life. I try to follow the wheel of the year and enjoy each day of it. My art reflects that spiritual journey.
September 27, 2009
I promised you knitting.
The autumn greenery jacket is finished. Here you see it taking a little early evening sun with the very berry elsewhere jacket.
I really love the colours in this despite them not being what I set out to dye. I had it in mind to dye autumn greenery as a more faded and darker green. Seemed the dyeing fairy had other ideas. That notwithstanding I love it and the fit is perfect.
The colours blend yet don't which is just what I wanted. Why have matching sleeves and fronts if you don't have to?
This was going to be Autumn greenery Elsewhere jacket as I said but the goddess had other ideas as I dyed the yarn.
What was going to be faded greens going darker and more fragile became spring greens. The beauty of the trees awakening and unfurling their leaves. No two trees have the same shades of green so my jacket reflects all the green spectrum.
Sometimes the Goddess takes a hand. Autumn's glory has within it Spring's awakening.
It comes from there via the nurturing touch of winter's earth.
Could be her way of reminding me once more that the wheel is always turning.
We live on a spiral so we are always moving onwards and outwards.
From the faded ideas and completed projects can grow new plans, new dreams and new hopes.
The trick is to move with the energy not at right angles to it.
To be open to growth at the right time and to know when to be quiet and let the seeds germinate.
Sometimes I feel I miss the messages. My ears aren't tuned in or I hear and don't decipher the words.
Awareness can be lost in the day to day things if I am not in the now.
I did mention I wanted to knit another Elsewhere jacket. This will be my Winter Blues jacket.
Dyed in honour of the winter Solstice and the dark velvet nights of that portion of the wheel.
What do you think? Have I captured it do you think? This time I was listening.
Then I was out of dyed aran to start another so had to have something on the needles.
Here you see the sunny day socks. These are for me to wear of an evening while sitting reading, knitting or the like. I have very bad circulation and always feel cold so these will be ideal for winter. The yarn is some double knit alpaca merino I dyed some months back.
Very speedy knit as it is double knit yarn. Very warm also.
There has also been spinning and here you see the latest yarn off the bobbins
Fibre was from limegreenjelly and spun beautifully for this newbie. Didn't half leech a lot of colour when the yarn was set though. The water was vivid green:(
I'm very pleased with this, it is still thick and thin but it is getting better I think.

The yarns are beautiful. On the cards eventually for me is making another skirt and dyeing it

The last yarn you spun is so very soft and nice looking, there are lots of patterns out there for thick/thin yarn too. Your merino & alpaca socks look so warm and cozy, it is still so very hot in Southern California, wish I could send a little of the warmth through your blog.

Wow, Amber, your elsewhere jackets are stunning! I must take a look at that pattern!
Your freshly dyed yarn really captures the spirit of winter, those rich,deep blues and purples are beautiful.
Many thanks again for passing on my s.o.s!!
Take care x

Wonderful colours as always. Love the greens. I'm rather stuck in that palette myself at the moment. I wonder why?

It's knitting porn! The colours are just beautiful. What always strikes me al the time about your colours is how deliciously soft they are. They're so lush.

One night in Mannat
The balmy gale that was lashing at me, trying to throw me, became a full-blown storm now. Motorcycling toward Delhi along the NH1, I was the only one on the road. Everyone else seemed to have scuttled to the safety of dhabas, parked beneath juddering awnings, huddled inside maybe over chole bhatura and lassi waiting it out.
There was no way I could have seen it coming. Nor heard. There was nary a whistle nor a rustle. There was no dry duff flying around. But for that you need some vegetation. Like pine trees which make wind howl. There was hardly a spindly shrub along this terrain I was traversing – being the peak of summer the fields had become swathes of pewter-fine soil which now rose, wan blankets over the horizon like a billowy ghost tarp. Because of the hanging, pervading opaque-ness, switching on my headlamps didn't add to visibility; I just hoped to be visible to incoming traffic. (Many come the wrong way having missed an eatery or a petrol pump; I barely missed one who was coming in reverse.)
My night riding goggles fought a losing battle and soon enough I was bleary-eyed with sand. I pumped some out through squeeze-shut tears and rode on. I felt like a hero, you know, one of those valiant knights who ride through hell and highwater because a lot depended on them reaching the other side of hell and highwater. The only thing that depended on I reaching was, well, nothing I could think of then. Nothing I can think of now either. I rode on because I didn't want to stop. I guess it was that simple.
The 'tap-tap' of a newly installed tappet that crept up from the cylinder of my motorcycle now and then had become faintly insistent now. I knew it wasn't good. Then sometimes you want to cover max ground when the going is not good; you build up anticipation of the eventual collapse because you are really miffed at yourself for missing something which was obviously cooping in from all around you. It was ominous and on your face, still you chose to turn a blind eye toward it. Now you want to pay the price. So, hoick it so up that you don't forget you fucked up. Or maybe you hope the self-punishment will make all the shit go away. Shit seldom goes away on its own.
Tap-tap. Tap-tap. Tap-tap.
My motorcycle lost throttle and the engine idled to a stop. I sat impassive letting the cycle roll as much as it would go on its own. It was not the thought of pushing all the dead kerb weight that made me coast on the clutch any more than relishing what lay in store. Pushing my big, fat, Royal Enfield Bullet, a Standard 500, along the dark highway, in the midst of a raging sandstorm. I even decided by then – as the free ride came to a stop – that I would keep the helmet on because:
- It held my goggles in place.
- That way I would prevent the sand from getting into my hair and soiling the helmet.
- Being on a dark highway, I could be sitting duck for someone who didn't want to stop. Somebody like me.
I might have pushed for a kilometre, maybe two, I don't know as my mind was blank. All I could see shit. Strangely I felt calm, at peace with myself. It wasn't because I felt like I was squaring the circle but could have been the self-punishment thing I spoke of earlier. Even then I wasn't sure – there was no sense of achievement. Nor victory. Impassion, I realised, is the face when one is shorn of options and there is no dearth of difficulties. My hair became drenched in sweat and trickled into my eyes fogging up my goggles. Just like fortunes change as you are about to give up, three guys came on a motorcycle. Under the circumstances from an earlier lifetime – when I blazed across highways in a two-litre Chevy Optra – these guys would be drunken thugs out to mischief and I would watch them from the corner of my eyes till I passed them:
- Will they swerve to make me veer out of control?
- Will they scatter nails so I will pull over ahead?
- Was one of them whipping out a country-made pistol?
This fear was borne out of an experience when I was driving through Bihar where I was accosted by two armed guys on a motorcycle asking me to stop the car. My then wife slept peacefully next to me, seat low and music and air conditioning jacked up.
They were still drunk but thugs they weren't. After the primary curiosity-settling questions like where I was coming from and headed to and what happened – at least my version of it – they began their own set of inquisition.
Is there petrol? Yes? Enough petrol? Are you sure? Do you want to open the tank and see? Do you need money to buy some petrol? No? Don't be embarrassed to ask for money, alright? We all land in trouble and tomorrow it might be you helping me out, right?
One guy sat on my pillion seat while the other two pushed my motorcycle from behind – all the way to Mannat, a well-lit dhaba in Samalkha. Delhi was still far – by about 50 km. They bid their goodbyes and the one who sat behind me even tried to slip a rupee note into my pocket asking me to 'eat something.' I used to believe that those who didn't drink weren't good people. It turns out that I was right about some things. I did not park on the main lot but along an unpaved interstice between the dhaba and an open field. I knew I wasn't going anywhere anytime soon.
The goodness continued with Ranjan, a waiter at Mannat, who talked a good game about motorcycles. Though I told him it was the tappet, he came with a pair of pliers and loosened the spark plug whose head was crumbling soot. Aha! Things are going to be alright. These little interludes of relief and hope, however hopeless, are important, especially when you know they are short-lived and the main issue shall continue. Three kids in pinafores were brought from the kitchen who pushed the motorcycle to start it on gear. They retired only after I announced that I was staying put the night and would arrange for a mechanic tomorrow.
'Who'll stay in Mannat – or anywhere in Samalkha, for that matter – when, as Chandra Bose said, Dilli noor nahin? (Delhi is not far?)' Ranjan chuckled when I queried about room availability. I remember being too tired even to express surprise but just gawking at him in groggy admiration. Did he know that it wasn't Bose who said it first? The next morning I remember waking up deciding to ask where he picked his history from. That night I was shown into a backroom of sorts with a much-needed swirling fan that sounded like ricocheting gunfire, stacked up with DVDs, spare furniture and some hookahs. There was a bed on which two others were already sleeping.
Ranjan moved one pair of legs and made just about enough space for me. He bade me 'good night' and went out back to work. Mannat was open 24 hours and he was on night watch this week.
"Have a chai with me if you wake up before I go," he called out before shutting the door behind him.
There was only one pillow which was taken by the guy on the other side. I entertained half a mind to slide it from under him – after all, he must have had his share of comfortable sleep. As if sensing my evil design, he opened his eyes and peered closely at me. What would have been eerie under any other circumstance didn't strike me as such as I was too exhausted and ready to drop. I looked around and saw a pair of pyjamas lying on the floor. The chap snoring loudly next to me was under a fleece blanket, I didn't know if there was a connection. Anyway I bunched it up and used it for pillow for what must have been the soundest sleep I had in a long time.
Next morning was Sunday and I woke to the roar of superbikes from Delhi making their weekly Panipat run. (These machines are largely owned by doctors and other highly paid people who plod hard the rest of the week. Maybe why I have mine.) Vehicles trickled in – those who started early from Chandigarh or Shimla late last night. Families sat around tables watching gleefully as the toddler son threw cutlery around after licking them. Ranjan patiently picked each one up as he took some impossibly torturous orders.
I forgot to ask him where he read history, instead made the following note:
- Smile when they repeat the order, don't sit morose and motionless – after all nothing said it wouldn't be you taking the order.
- Slip a tip. Trust me, these kids need every extra rupee they get.
- For god sake take that kid off the table – and not just because it's bad table manners.

On August 3rd, 1916, Roger Casement was executed for his part in the 1916 Rising. See After The Rising for more information. Born in 1864 in Dublin, Roger Casement received a knighthood for his services to the British consulate, having campaigned tirelessly to expose the cruelty inflicted on native workers in the Belgian Congo in 1904, and again in Brazil from 1911-1912. Casement had become a member of the Gaelic League in 1904, and began to write nationalist articles under the pseudonym 'Seán Bhean Bhocht'. He retired from the British consular service in 1913, joining the Irish Volunteers. Based on...

Duke Miguel of Braganza
Life Path Number 9
Duke Miguel of Braganza is a male celebrity.
He was born on Monday September 19th 1853, in Unknown.
Duke Miguel of Braganza is the philanthropist, humanitarian, socially conscious, and is deeply concerned about the state of the world, for which he has great compassion and idealism. Duke is a utopian, and will spend his life trying to realize some aspect of his utopian dream, sacrificing money, time, and energy for a better world. It is in giving that Braganza finds much satisfaction.
Duke Miguel of Braganza has a broad outlook on life. He tends to see the big picture, rather than the minute details. Duke naturally attracts people from all walks of life who can fit into his larger plans and take over the areas he finds uninteresting. The person with a 9 Life Path is rarely prejudiced or accepts social biases of people. Instead, they evaluate people on the basis of what they can do for the larger cause. They are the true egalitarian.
Duke is imaginative and creative, especially at harmoniously arranging the beauty already potential in the environment. These abilities can lead Braganza into such fields as interior decorating, landscape art, and photography. But because of his strong social consciousness, Duke Miguel of Braganza can be an effective politician, lawyer, judge, minister, teacher, healer, and environmentalist. Vocations that require self-sacrifice and have a clear social impact are common among 9s.
He is often disappointed by the realities of life: the shortcomings of others, or of his own self's. Somehow, Duke Miguel of Braganza does not want to accept the imperfections of the world, a feeling that drives him constantly to try to improve upon it. But rather than be satisfied with his efforts, and those of others, Duke relentlessly pushes on, striving for greater accomplishments. He is often unsatisfied with the results. In short, Braganza lacks the perspective that would otherwise make it possible for him to enjoy life more fully, and accept its natural limitations.
Duke Miguel of Braganza has a controlled enthusiasm and the ability to finish what he starts.
A key to Duke's personality is the necessity of sacrifice. Duke has to learn to let go of material possessions and relationships, the inherent lesson being that holding on too tightly to anything causes pain.
Money comes to Duke Miguel of Braganza through mysterious or unexpected ways: inheritance; the benevolence of someone who was inspired by Braganza's work; or a lucky investment. Conversely, if Duke pursues money for its own sake, after giving up on his larger dreams, he is likely to find himself empty handed.
The most successful and satisfying road for a nine is giving; sharing and sacrificing for a larger goal, without expecting anything in return. Duke's greatest chance at success is to tie his personal fortunes to an endeavor that makes the world a better place for others. Very often, this turns into a highly successful and lucrative enterprise, providing amply for Duke Miguel of Braganza and his family. His life rests on the axiom that the more he gives, the bigger his reward.
Duke Miguel of Braganza is romantic, but his love is more impersonal. He tends to be focused on his dreams instead.
When Duke is not in harmony with his true nature, he can fall to moodiness, or become aloof, and withdrawn. He can become timid, uncertain, and ungrateful, putting the blame for his troubles on others or the world. Braganza has a gift for examining his life objectively, and at some distance. He has to be honest with himself. By openly facing his shortcomings, as well as his strengths, he develops equilibrium. Duke Miguel of Braganza is thus able to love and better understand himself and all of life.
You and Duke
About Duke's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Duke Miguel of Braganza's birth. In that instant, Duke stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life. The most critical number in Braganza's numerology chart is based on the date of his birth - the moment when the curtain went up in Duke Miguel of Braganza's life.

I mentioned we went on a road trip to Boston, MA and I promised to share a few highlights. I found a pamphlet for the New Hampshire Telephone Museum when we were actually en route to Boston from Ottawa. We had, only days earlier, watched Yes Man (for the 100th time), and I had just been thinking: "I wish I could go on a spontaneous trip and see a telephone museum". Not in a sarcastic way, but in a gal-who-relished-the-science-fair-in-school kind of way.
A "working" operator's switchboard:
Except for one. CANADA'S!
Canadians: we need to find a more chic Canadian-made phone to donate to the museum. We need to represent.
Readers are always asking for more photos of me. Why? I have no idea. But I thought in a telephone museum, with my purdy new turquoise necklace ($5.00 at an antique shop) and actual wearing of non-yoga clothes (free from paint stains), I could channel just a little bit of Zooey Deschanel's quirky chic? Maybe look a little cool?
|Don't mind my slept-in-the-car hair. It needed a good brush. But I was so excited to see the phones! The phones!!
We learned so many things, I'm trying really hard not to just bombard you with facts. But for every commenter who says "hey, nice phones" I'll share a fun phone fact! How's that for geeky?
P.S. Here's the clip from Yes Man I'm talking about. Haven't seen the movie? What are doing at work? Take a sick day and rent it!

ACC Releasing Video on CVA
By Editorial Staff
The Association of Chiropractic Colleges (ACC) is releasing a DVD titled "Cervical Spine Adjusting and Vertebral Artery Issues." The culmination of three years of work by the ACC to summarize research and clinical experiences on the topic, the 105-minute lecture is delivered by Dr.Gerard Clum, president of Life Chiropractic College West and member of the ACC board of directors.
The DVD presentation is designed to accomplish several specific things, according to the ACC. It will "increase the ability of the chiropractor to better recognize a patient in the process of an arterial dissection upon presentation. In addition, the information presented in this lecture will provide the chiropractor with current information about the demographics and incidence data of Vertebral Artery Dissection (VAD) in general and as it relates to the practicing chiropractor. Finally, this lecture will provide up-to-date information on the proper management of a patient who is experiencing a VAD to minimize morbidity, mortality and related issues of professional liability."
The DVD was first conceptualized at the ACC's annual meeting in March 2004. The association set a goal of providing all chiropractors with the latest information on the relationship, if any, between cervical spine adjusting and injuries to the vertebral artery (cerebrovertebral accidents - CVA). To accomplish this, an ad-hoc committee, known as the ACC CVA Committee, was formed, with Dr. Clum as chair.
The committee began the process of developing a presentation regarding concerns and issues related to the subject.
"Members of the ACC felt a presentation offered on behalf of the entire academic community would almost immediately result in a change in the standard of practice in chiropractic," said then-ACC president Dr. Jean Moss, president of Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. "The ready accessibility of the latest data provides chiropractors with greater confidence in the delivery of care. Patients' clinical presentation will be better understood and potential complications can be avoided."
After a two-year development period, representatives of the ACC's member institutions reviewed a draft of the presentation and provided feedback. A revised version was then submitted to the clinic deans/directors of the association's member institutions and programs. Following their feedback and input from other interested parties within the chiropractic profession, a final version of the lecture was presented in May 2006 at the annual meeting of the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards.
According to the ACC, while excellent printed publications and online courses address the subject of cervical spinal manipulation, the vertebral artery and CVA, a coordinated effort on the part of the chiropractic educational community was necessary to bring this information to the field. It was important that to maximize the value of the DVD to chiropractors, it present the most current clinical and research information and concurrently hit the right pragmatic balance. The reality that a presentation offered on behalf of the entire academic community of the profession would almost immediately result in a change in chiropractic standards of practice also conveyed the need to work diligently to bring this information to the practitioner.
"It is very clear that procedures once thought to be helpful no longer provide clinically relevant value, and it is equally clear that the issue associated with chiropractic care has shifted from one of perceived causation to one of evaluation and recognition" commented Dr. Clum. "Every chiropractor, regardless of when they graduated, the school or college they graduated from, the technique used or the type of patient population served, needs to review and understand this information."
A consensus was reached that to increase the chances of the information reaching all practicing chiropractic clinicians, it be made accessible in every possible format. To that end, plans are underway for the lecture to be available online in the form of either a "Webinar" or as streaming video. The content will be available for viewing at no cost, but will not be available for download. Various colleges also are offering live presentations of the lecture.
"We knew from the beginning that this effort needed to be presented in lecture format in person, on DVD and online," said Dr. Clum. "It wasn't going to be enough to publish a book or to develop an online course. We felt the need to be creative and meet the needs of today's diverse learning styles, and to offer the lecture in various formats, to increase the potential for complete exposure."
To order the DVD online, visit www.chirocolleges.org/cva_ordering.html. A $10 shipping and handling charge applies. As of press time, more than 50,000 advance orders have been placed for the soon-to-be-released DVD. The majority of the orders are from chiropractic colleges and programs planning to make the information available to their alumni, faculty and students.
The ACC thanks Drs. Alan Terrett, John Triano, Scott Haldeman and Greg Kawchuk for their work on this project. The association also acknowledges the National Chiropractic Mutual Insurance Company (NCMIC) for its most recent 2006 publication, Current Concepts in Spinal Manipulation and Cervical Arterial Incidents, related to this subject; and for seed funding for the initiation of the project.
"The response of the educational community of the profession as well as the practicing community to this effort is quite gratifying," said Dr. Clum. "This is truly a win-win opportunity. Chiropractors armed with this new data can proceed with greater confidence when providing chiropractic care. Patients' clinical presentations will be better understood with the new research findings and therefore, potential complications can be avoided."

Is LightSwitch Useless?
Is LightSwitch Useless?
I have used it to create a GUI to my SQL AZURE database, but there is no generated C# code go look at. Without this, I cannot easily customize what I want to do.
If you look at the Solution Explorer, you will not find any code to step into. So I do not know how customization can work.
@complete: I looked into Lightswitch briefly when it first showed up -- you can access preset events on the objects by writing C# or VB code but i don't know how pervasive they are -- I would start here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff852038.aspx.
Looks to me like Lightswitch is good for about 80% of LOB applications and I never got round to figuring out how to customise it for the other 20% (although I do know you can create custom controls which might be what is required).
Let us know how you get on in your investigations.
@complete:If you open one of the entities or screens in your solution you will find there is a "Write Code" button at the top right of the entity or screen editor [Ctrl+Shift+W] whose menu changes according to what you currently have selected (the entity, an attribute, the screen, a field on the screen etc) and this leads you to all the events that happen during the execution of your application.
You can also right-click on an item in the solution explorer and choose "View Table Code" or "View Screen Code" for a more "traditional" route into the code editor.
You can customise LightSwitch applications extensively, not only in the look and feel by using different themes and shells but also in the behaviour of the application by writing code or using Custom Controls.
Behind the scenes LightSwitch uses MVVM and EntityFramework so you can use just about any coding methods applicable to those situations.The front-end is Silverlight (or HTML/JavsScript for the new "mobile" clients currently in beta) so you are restricted to that for the most part but server-side application code can be written using the full power of the .NET environment.
The short answer is "yes". Lightswitch is useless. Why use 1/8th the power when you can use another tool with all the toys? I would say it is more than useless, it is pointless.
I would have to disagree. It is just about the fastest deveopment tool available for making "forms over data" applications for businesses. A big, all-singing, all-dancing development environment it is not - making it much faster and a lot easier to use PROVIDED you use it for what it was intended.
If you think it is pointless then you either haven't tried it or you aren't in its target market.
Once you've got to know it you can produce good looking, functional applications in minutes or hours that would take days or weeks with more traditional tools. The applications come with lots of standard features such as "dirty data detection", complex validation and optimistic concurrency resolution with no effort and you can convert from 2-tier to 3-tier or move from in-house to cloud services by ticking one box.

I would have to disagree. LightSwitch is built on the now dead product that is Silverlight. I had to make a choice a little while back and went with ASP.NET because of this. That it is being migrated to HTML 5 means that it is already a dead technology, as HTML 5 is unproven, incomplete and nowhere near finalised.
There are a lot of system architects (myself included) that have egg on their faces for suggesting customers use a technology like Silverlight, so you won't find people waxing lyrical about LightSwitch that don't work for Microsoft.
@vesuvius: Oh, heck, Silverlight isn't dead yet...
LightSwitch has HTML Client option as well as Silverlight.
It has a sweet spot for usage for things like putting a quick GUI over data and allowing you to customize portions by coding around events.
Let's say I write a new website for my companies clients, and the enrollment and features of each client are driven by a database. I can code a backoffice application for boarding and maintaining those customers, or I can quickly stand up a GUI in a tool like Lightswitch or Wavemaker, and spend the saved time making the client experience better, rather than investing it in boilerplate maintenance code.
Is it for everything no. But neither is XAML, HTML, DirectX, MVC, etc. Choose the right tool for the right job. Currently for some data driven LOB applications LightSwitch is one of many tools that can be effective.

^^ this. It's not for making 'websites', especially since Silverlight blows on mobile (if it'll run at all) and the HTML Client (still in preview, mind you) doesn't look like it will make up that deficiency. You can jerry-rig it to behave like you want but if you are going to be writing 100's of lines of code, you might as well stick with Forms or MVC or some other non-RAD tooling.
But for simple data-entry (like Simon said, "Forms over Data"), it's an incredible framework. It's a bit of a learning curve due to the application architecture and UI in Visual Studio, but once you get past that, you'll find that Lightswitch has it's niche and isn't dead by any means.
But definitely keep an eye on the HTML Client. Depending on how well the M$ Team builds it out, you might be finding that Lightswitch's little niche market might explode into the 'actual website' sphere.
Now personally, I've developed a few websites with Lightswitch but I've restricted it's usage for 'back-office' and 'web admin panel' functionality only. I then use MVC for the front-end (better UI customization and browser compatibility) and query the Lightswitch tables for anything data-driven. That architecture has worked well for me and I never have to touch SQL since Lightswitch generates the database schema and handles CRUD operations (Think of it as Entity Framework on Easy-Mode). You'll also find that customers like the clean, easy-to-comprehend Lightswitch UI. And when they come back with customizations or new data requirements, you'll see why Lightswitch isn't dead.

Thank you for your interest in Presbyterian Day School. We believe PDS is more than just a place to send your child to school; it is a place that nurtures both your child and your family.
We believe the environment of love and learning at PDS sets us apart. Our curriculum and activities build a strong academic and Christian foundation for each student. We are always looking for new ways to make learning fun, yet purposeful here at PDS. The teachers are dedicated to meeting each child where he or she is and developing them to their full potential.
My desire, as the principal, is to work with your family and provide a quality education that will prepare each student to shape the future for the world in which they will live. Whether they are having trouble with self-control, feelings, or friendships, I enjoy showing how God's word applies to every part of my students' lives.
It is my privilege to make sure these children are getting the best education possible. We never want learning to be static. The teachers and I are always looking for successful practices that we can incorporate into our curriculum and extra activities to make learning fun!
Loving your children,
If you're considering sending your child to PDS, you may be wondering, "What's most important at this school – faith or learning?" The answer is yes!
Please let me explain. PDS does have an unwavering commitment to the Bible as the inerrant Word of God and to the historic gospel as it's been understood and proclaimed across the years by the Protestant branches of the Church – the good news that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in the finished work of Christ alone.
That said, we're convinced that this primary commitment, rather than distracting from our educational mission, actually strengthens it. Here's why:
First, the Christian faith strengthens learning because it teaches us that education's actually more important than we think. When the bell rings and class begins here, our aim is not simply to give our students the opportunity to earn good grades, develop self-control, or learn a set of facts (though these are all important goals). The goal of our teaching is to bring them to know the world God has made and how he's designed it to work. Why's that significant? Because, just as we can learn about a great artist by studying his works, so we also learn about God – the ultimate Artist – by studying his creation. As the Bible puts it, "The heavens declare the glory of God" (Psalm 19:1)! And, we might add, so do reading, writing, arithmetic, and all the other subjects we tackle here. We're convinced that as we learn more about his world, we're learning about the glory of the Creator himself. And since life's about knowing him personally, that's the most valuable education we could ever hope to impart. Faith and learning really do go hand in hand.
Second, the Christian faith strengthens learning because it inspires us always to give our very best. As we come to know God personally through his Son Jesus, we become his children and his servants. This makes a huge difference in the way we see and live our lives, because it means there's really no such thing as the "mundane." Everything we do gets transformed into an avenue of worship and service to the Lord! That's why, as we begin each day at PDS, we remind each other that we're not here to serve ourselves. We're actually serving the King as we teach and learn – and that calls for our very best! As the Bible says in Colossians 3:23-24, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Doing what we do with all our hearts for him is a goal we consciously and consistently strive for here. And we believe the result is better performance and greater results for teachers and students alike.
Thanks so much for your interest in PDS! I cordially invite you to come and experience the "happy marriage" of faith and learning that has been the hallmark of our service to children and families for nearly fifty years.

What is Experience Christmas?
Experience Christmas: Preparing Your Heart for the Manger Through the Stories and Songs of the Season is a twenty-five day Advent devotional. It seeks to create a multi-dimensional daily experience for readers who want more than the status quo this December.
The hustle and bustle and commercial distractions that often accompany this season make it possible to arrive at Christmas celebrations on the 25th filled to the full of good things, while still missing the very best thing of all. Experience Christmas is one way to change that this year.
Daily devotions are formatted to engage the reader through Scripture, reflection, and prayer, and also include the title of a specific Christmas song meant to complement the day's reading. Sprinkled throughout the book are fictionalized vignettes highlighting some of the major players of the Christmas story, encouraging the reader to consider the humanity that can be found within the Biblical narrative.
The entire devotional emphasizes the value of making space during an incredibly busy season to slow down in anticipation of Christmas, pointing the reader toward personal engagement with the Christ-Child of the manger.
Who is it For?
Formatted for individual or group study, Experience Christmas is an incredible tool for both believer and seeker to engage the Biblical narrative in a new way.
Here are a few specific groups of readers I think would benefit from Experience Christmas this Advent:
Individual Believers & Seekers
Faith is a personal journey and our response to faith is as well. By no means is Experience Christmas meant only for believers or those who have a working knowledge of Christianity.
I believe anyone at any point of their faith journey who is:
- curious about Christianity and faith
- interested in better understanding the meaning of Christmas and Christ's birth
- looking to make a concerted effort to prepare themselves for Christmas through Advent
- wanting to deepen their relationship with Christ this Christmas
can benefit from the inspiration and insight of this book.
Ministers & Ministry Leaders
Christmas tends to be one of the busiest seasons of the Church calendar. Ministers and ministry leaders spend long hours preparing for Christmas celebrations with their congregants, and can arrive at the final service tired and spent from their labor. Experience Christmas is a great way to invest back into their personal relationship with the Lord during an often taxing and stressful season.
Small Groups, Special Interest Groups, & Communities of Friends
A special trip or vacation is always more memorable when shared with someone you care about. Spiritual journeys are very similar. Reading and discussing Experience Christmas within a traditional Church small group or special interest group setting (like MOPS, Supper Club, playgroup) initiates a different level of engagement and introduces a measure of accountability to keep-at-it until the end. Even picking the book up to read with one other person – a friend or a spouse – can deepen understanding and meaning of the devotional.
Online Communities
Sometimes it's just impossible to meet with someone (or a group of someone's) face-to-face for regular discussion of anything. I completely get it – with a brand new baby and my husband pursuing his masters, this currently is where we live.
Find an online friend or group who will commit to reading the book alongside of you or join me during the month of December on Facebook where we'll be chatting about each day's reading.
I know there are still several calendar pages between now and December, but I want to encourage you to take a moment to consider how you want to approach Advent this year, and who you might want to invite on the journey with you.

On Monday May 9, it's time to drop everything and remind yourself that whatever crap you've got going on, you're still a part of a giant, unknowable Solar System filled with mysterious neighbours like our potential new home, Mars, and whatever the hell Planet Nine actually is. Because for the first time in a decade, we're about to witness Mercury make its rare transit across the enormous face of the Sun.
In an event that only happens 13 times every century, Mercury's orbit will bring it in range of one of the best backdrops of the Universe, and we're not going to see anything like this again until 2019, and after that, not until 2032. The best part about this particular transit of Mercury is that it will be viewable in most places on Earth, and unlike many cosmic phenomena that are both fleeting and difficult to locate in the sky, you've got a good 7-8 hours to watch this event, and it's not exactly hard to figure out where to look.

Pyracantha Yellow Berries
Pyracantha is a dense, spiny evergreen shrub so ideal as an intruder deterrent but this variety is also
chosen for its profuse, long lasting orange berries in autumn but we also love it for its highly scented
creamy flowers in May. It is a tough, hardy plant which grows quite quickly (approx 50cm p.a.) and
should be pruned after flowering to expose the berries to sunlight. It's very easy to grow in most soils
and sun or partial shade but is not suitable for seaside gardens, very dense shade, or very windy sites.

IMPHAL, Aug 29 : The general strike as well as the blockade imposed by the SHDDC on the National Highways is set to continue as the first public meeting held today has decided on going ahead with the stir.
After taking the opinion of the people, the meeting resolved to carry on the agitation until the demand for upgrading Sadar Hills to a full fledged district is achieved.
The meeting held today at Kanglatongbi IB deliberated for several hours on the appeals of the Union Home Minister and the Chief Minister to end the highway blockade.
The meeting was also attended by SHDDC leaders, ex-Ministers, ex-MLAs, sitting MLAs, ADC Members and leaders of various civil organisations.
At the meeting, the leaders proposed lifting the blockade in line with the appeal from the Union Home Ministerand the Chief Minister.
However the proposal of the leaders was outrightly rejected by the people.
They contended that the 40 years old demand for a separate Deputy Commissioner and Superintendent of Police for Sadar Hills is not about breaking up Manipur.
"We should carry on the agitation even if we have to pay with our lives. Even if the Government send all its police forces, we will never call off the agitation", they asserted.
Asserting that the the assurance to upgrade Sadar Hills to the status of a full fledged district has been there since the last 40 years or so, members of the public said that this time they want something more than just verbal assurance.
The re-organisation of district boundary is welcome, they averred but added that first a Sadar Hills district should be announced. Only after Sadar Hills is upgraded to the status of a district, should the re-organisation exercise be taken up, they announced.
Similar meetings would be held at Kangpokpi tomorrow and Saikul on August 31 to seek people's opinion on whether the agitation should be suspended or not.
Sadar Hills : Public for stir continuation
IMPHAL, Aug 29 : The general strike as well as the blockade imposed by the SHDDC on the National Highways is set to continue as the first public meeting held today has decided on going ahead with the stir.

We've been reading a lot about vicious attacks on people's wives and women on Tony's Kansas City…
Some of those kind of comments used to appear on KC Confidential before Hearne got tough on them and cleaned up the site.
In fact just this week a commenter on KCC threatened me with firearms. I'll admit that some time ago after I got pummeled with family and personal threats, put downs and lies, I reached the point where I wasn't going to take those things anymore. And I said I would be willing to meet anyone spewing that garbage wherever and whenever they wanted. It culminated with a commenter by the name of smartman challenging me to a fight in Westport.
I showed up, he didn't.
I even proved I was there with photos – although I didn't know who smartman was – and that was that.
Attacking people online by threatening violence is just wrong. And yes, me calling people out for attacking my character (among other things) was wrong too.
More than almost anyone else I know who writes online locally, I lived for decades in a very violent world. From prisons to gunfights, with much of it documented. So I have nothing to prove.
As for writers like Paul Wilson, Hearne or Tony, they are generally stating their opinion about people, places or things which doesn't call for attacks on their families, wives or children. You can simply disagree with them, explain why and move on with your life.
The reality's this, while thousands of people read these websites daily, there are probably less than 50 regular commenters and most of them are negative. And that's why they comment.
As for some of the filthy comments Hearne has talked about in recent days, I think those are wrong. And in my opinion those kind of comments should be killed. As mad as I've been at people, I've never written anything like that, let alone use language like that.
There are three main reasons those kind of comments shouldn't be allowed.
One, there's no reality in what's being said. It's just someone being hateful and denigrating real people, even though we don't know who they are because they use fake names.
Second, they have nothing to do with the story. It's perfectly fine to call me an idiot – I mean, they're wrong – but I think it's wrong to use that kind of language period. It's just crude, lewd and rude for no reason.
And three, generally the people leaving those kind of comments don't even know the person or what they're talking about. It's just pure meanness.

2015 Nissan Titan Prices Paid
Highroller - I was confused on your post. What was the MSRP (manuf. suggested retail price) total and what was the agreed price you paid (before tax, tag, and title)? It is hard to judge a differential without knowing how much the added warantee, etc was.
Sorry for the confusion..
Actually looking back to my receipt for the vehicle i didnt really state how i got to $31,079.68 to be exact.
Ok, here's the extended in-depth hopefully easier to understand breakdown of the total price of my 4x2 06 SE Crew Cab Titan w/ only 5 miles at the time.
Sale sticker said $30,040.00 but they were selling cash price of the vehicle for = 28055.85
Manufacture rebate = $1000.00
So actually the MSRP(without all the fees, all the taxes, and other charges like warranties and plans) was= $27055.85
The total for fees and taxes (but not warranties and other plans that i bought optional) was = $1890.32(sales tax alone was $1690.99)
The total for optional plans, warranties, and the documentation fee was = $2133.51 (I had the 5yr/75k warranty and 2yr/30k maintenance plan)
Total charges,fees,taxes = $4023.83
Amount financed or total MSRP with optionals and fees, etc. is = $31079.68
i got a good deal for the APR(annual percentage rate) at 5.94% The finance charge was $4919.72
After downpayment, the total of payments(amount i will have paid after i have made all payments as scheduled) will be = $35999.40.
Again, here's the accessories i have in detail:
Step-rails were installed for free
wheel locks and bedliner
SE Popular Package includes the following only:
rear sonar system(watch out for the kids behind!)
homelink universal transcevier
auto-dim rear view mirror
steering wheel audio control
extended overhead console with compass and outside temperature display
Floor mats
Here is the standard equipment that is available for crew cab models:
Tow mode switch
18' wheels alloy
dual power heated outside mirrors
rail caps for bedside
mp3/am/fm cd audio system with 8(not 6) speakers and 6disc in dash cd changer
all power controls
remote keyless entry
cruise control
dual 12 volt dc power outlets
electronic brake force distribution
tire pressure monitoring system!!
LATCH system(lower anchors and tethers for Children)
vehicle security and immobilizer system
Rear privacy glass
Power sliding captain's chair
all windows tinted
let me know what you think
The only problem i have had with the truck is that the gas cap cover is easily accessible to any gas thieves. I dont know if all brands of pickup trucks are designed this way but im looking into buying/installing a lock. Nissan wont do it becuase they said that people who installed them kept gettin check engine light and therefore showed the egr system being malfunctioned on the computer.
dmarkh Posts: 8Highroller:
So in the end it looks like you got $2985 off the MSRP which is about 9.9%.
I recommend that you go to CARMAX site (www.carmax.com)and look at MSRP and No Haggle price on similar model to yours for comparison. I think you will find they are discounting in the range of 13-14% on 06's.
You did OK but could have done better and I have no idea what the warrentee's are valued at.??
Looking at their website, it doesn't have any 06 titan in all the cities in Texas. It only had the 04's. My question is that does carmax include any warranty or plans that go along with the MSRP total amount? My total MSRP was only $31079. I dont care about how much people are saving, i just know that i got the truck with the above amount when i walked out of the dealership including all the warranties and plans. It seems like i got a really good deal. And, im not trying to beat up on you dmarkh, but optional plans and warranties are very important along with the MSRP
For the warranty: its 5yr/75k bumber to bumper warranty.
Maintenance plan is 2yr/30k that includes free oil changes, replace incabin filter,fuel filter,free tire rotation/balance, air filters, and free roadside assistance. At 30k, will replace the major service like timing belts, transmission, etc.
I also got the GAP insurance policy, if my car is stolen or destroyed within that 5yrs, itll pay up to 25,000 (without being charged for anything else) to replace a new one.
I have 52,000 on the '04 Titan LE King Cab, the brakes are no longer a problem with the latest fix (3 sets of front rotors,1 set of rears), the dash squeaks have diminished but not gone away. I just had a leaky axle seal replaced with a new bearing and seal on the left rear axle and new tires at 40K. mi. Now I am thinking about trading in for the '06 or should I opt for a fire sale on an '05, anyone know if there are any significant changes between the 2 years? I did notice that the '06 has dual zone heat and AC. One more thing, thanks to the loaners I used when my truck was being worked on, Ford, Dodge and last week an '06 Silverado, I could not buy anything but the Nissan, the ride, engine, transmission response, fit and finish is superior by far. I did like the lightness of the Ford tailgate. Any one heard about a New larger Toyota Tundra for '06? What value should I get for my 4x4 LE King Cab Titan with 52K and a few minor bruises?
I test drove the 06 and the tailgate is solid (heavy) as you know from your 04, but they added a hydraulic assist for both opening and closing. It is easy to open and shut with one hand - even the middle aged saleswoman that was showing me the truck had no problem doing it with one hand. I think the 05 has this feature also - but I wasn't looking at 05s so I don't know for sure.
splash Posts: 9I have a 2005 SE CC, build date April, 2005. Now has 5K miles. Have had no mechanical problems, no squeaks. My only complaint is that the arm rest of the captain seat has sagged. Haven't tried getting it fixed, yet. 2005 vs 2006 - it would depend on just how much you're saving. For me, saving $3K would be worth it and less than that wouldn't be. Good luck.
I agree with dmarkh. The only thing an outsider can begin to give you decent info on is msrp, invoice, and rebates. In that regard, I do think that if you look at similar MSRPs and discounts at carmax (or other such site), you CAN make fairly valid comparisons. Of course I can only speak for the carmax in my area, and I believe carmax in Maryland is the only new nissan dealership in their company. They have an 06 at 4200 off msrp.
This aftermarket stuff you've opted for -- there's no way for us to know what a good price is for that in your area. Personally, I'm not a big fan of these warranties -- seems to me that most of that is covered by the factory anyway, up to 3 yrs/36K, no? Gap ins, ok. Did you price all this after-market stuff elsewhere outside of where you bought, or did you check your credit union? If you MUST have these items, you can definitely shop around for them before you buy to see if the dealer is competitive in his prices. These topics are covered elsewhere ad nauseum in the Town Hall; just search around and you'll find them.
But, too, it doesn't really matter what we think, does it? You sound extremely happy with your purchase and that's all that matters.
Yes i agree with you, as long as people are happy. I would like to buy the 06 at carmax because it does seem to have a good deal on the msrp. But unfortunately in TX carmax dont have the 06 here. As for the warranties, plans, apr rates, etc, i also agree that its difficult to compare. Some people need the opts and some dont.
Overall, i would say i got a good deal but not the best. So, i regret saying i got the best deal or what not... =)
If we're just comparing msrp, i would say that people who got their 06 at carmax or other places which are cheaper, they are really getting a good deal. For the people who needs the piece of mind of getting opts, than i must say that i would like to see some comparisons PLEASE.
bsimcox Posts: 4The Nissan dealers in my area seem to have a surplus of '05 Titans sitting around. Has anyone had any luck getting a really great deal on one of these '05 models? I just can't help wondering why there are so many left. Are the dealers holding out for some reason? Should I hold out until first of the new year? Thanks for the help! -Bill
idahoff516 Posts: 1I am new to this board, but I was hoping that some of you have some advice for me.
I am looking for a '04 or '05 Titan with low to no miles on it. I am curious about when to buy, the dealers seem to be having good deals on the 05's trying to get them out the door right now. But should I wait until after the new year? Is there an advantage to this?
Anyway, just wondering when the best time to buy would be. Thanks.
I always try to buy near the end of the year, the dealers want to move out the old inventory. I would recommend looking at Carmax website, White Marsh, MD is a Carmax with a Nissan Franchise. The price of their trucks is posted and not negotiable any further. I just copied their price of the truck I wanted to buy and let my local dealers match it or not, then I let them match or beat the trade value. Fortunately for me my local dealer did match the Carmax price then beat the trade value. There is a $2,000 rebate on the '06, there was a $3000. rebate on the '05 before Dec. 1, I don't know what it is now. This is a great way to cut the bull out of the dealing. (One of the dealers I worked with could not match the Carmax price,$1,300 higher, so I know it is darn close to as good of a deal available at the time that I was going to get). So far I am very pleased with the improvements of the '06 LE 4x4 Titan over the '04 Titan that I traded. I especially love the new hydraulic assisted tailgate.
tboston Posts: 1Did you get a good deal on a leftover '05 Titan? I'm looking at picking up an '05 Titan Crew SE and hoping to get a great deal. I don't NEED it but would love to get one and trade in my '01 Pathfinder if I can get the right deal. Thanks - Tom
bill_viverette Posts: 2I've gotten 4 quotes for a 2006 SE King Cab with Tow and Traction Package (and the ubiquitous SE "Popular" Package). They range from 19.3% to 22.6% off MSRP. Basically invoice to invoice-$300 less current rebate of $2750.
Houston, TX
FWIW, last Sept. I got my 05 KC LE for around $85xx off msrp, which I thought was a very generous deal at the time. Good 'ol non-negotiable CARMAX was only offering around $7200 off MSRP at the time, and no other Nissan dealer would get close to that price for this truck. Maybe I got lucky. Who knows? I don't have the numbers in front of me, and I'm old, so I can't exactly recall what they were, but if memory serves, that was very close to 23-24% off MSRP. I think the MSRP was $36xxx, give or take.. So I would say that I think you're getting a pretty good deal with what you already have....but
Know what I'd do for grins if I were in your shoes? Since I love playing "the game", I'd take your best deal and take it to another dealer and ask for some additional silly amount off -- say an extra $500 or so. That's what I did and I was amazed that I got a bite. Don't be "pushy"; rather, just ask! Of course, it depends on all those other car buying 'factors' but it never hurts to ask.
Good luck. It would be great to hear how your hunt turns out. I'm not a dealer or anything, just a curious Titan lover. Thanks! dave
Thanks to everyone who provided great information. I just bought a 2006 Titan crew cab SE 4x2 silver/graphite.

I'd been working with the sales rep since back in November 05. I was relocating to AZ so I told him i'd give him last chance to beat any offers once I got to Phoenix.
Anyways, we agreed on a 06 Titan Crew Cab 4x2 in Majestic Blue with bench seats, bedliner, and mats only for $23,000.00
I got to the dealership and they didn't have that vehicle. (Funny thing was on my way there, a different sales rep from another dealer called to say his best offer was $23,458 for an XE with preferred pkg. I told him about the $23k offer for an SE and he laughed and said they would do a switch when I got there.)
Both the first sales rep and his manager showed on their computer how the vehicle was still available but they could not find it on the lot.
Well long story short, they asked if we could find another vehicle. Sure it took me an extra hour to locate a similarly optioned vehicle. There was one in Smoke but since i'm down here in the valley of the sun, I figured i'd go with a lighter color and opted for the silver with additional options of bed extender, underseat storage. We never even discussed the tint and clearcoat paint protection until AFTER the vehicle had been detailed for drive off.
We settled for $23,200.00 which still seemed a pretty good deal. I had to go to IKEA while they did a dealer exchange with another dealer but I got my truck out the door with 25miles only!
Sale Price $25,450.00 ///($23,200.00)// w/ rebate.
Tax $1,879.20
Tire Tax $5.00
Doc Fees $369.00
License Fee $444.00
Title Fee $4.00
Down (incl Rebate) $12,250.00
Finance $15,901.20 @ 5.99%
If you are in the Phoenix area and would like a great deal, I will be more than glad to refer to sales person and dealership. Mine was $7,323.00 off MSRP or 24% discount!
BTW, the silver color was my main color choice until recently so I can't complain about the color. Driving this one which has the captain's chairs is awesome. I'm glad I didn't get the Blue with bench seats now.

Props to Power Nissan here in Tempe, AZ. Southeast of Phoenix off I-10 on Auto row. (Seriously, there are like 16 different car make dealerships on this little loop.) :shades:
bushey Posts: 3The reason you are seeing lots of '05 Titans around in comparison to the '06 models is b/c of the similarity in incentives. I think it's only a $250 dollar difference between models. Who wouldn't go with the newer at that point
iceman_69_00 Posts: 3Hello,
I am wondering if it is a good idea to buy/lease a 06 titan? Has Nissan fixed any of the problems from 03-05 models? I would really like to get some feed back.
nvbrohoe Posts: 2HELL NO...!!!
I have an 06 titan - SE 4x4 - worst vehicle i have ever owned...horrible gas mileage - about 10-12 mpg at best - crappy interior materials - basic features for a not basic price - depending on how much you drive, gas can cost you a ton - i'm using about $180 PER WEEK - OUTRAGEOUS...!!!
I will never again buy another Nissan anything - their vehicles are just cheap in quality and overpriced in comparison to Honda & Toyota. I'm heading to the Toyota dealership next...
good luck :mad:
brads1 Posts: 7Well, I must say that I have an 05 LE Crew Cab and I LOVE it! It is loaded. After researching this site and all the previous post before purchasing mine, I found that "Supposedly" all the Brake problems were resolved. I specifically looked for an 05 that was built "Later" in the year to ensure the kinks were resolved. As of now, I have 5700 miles on it and "knock on wood" I have had no problems. I get around 14-16 miles a gallon depending on what type of driving I am doing but I remember reading a post on this site prior to purchsing my vehicle and it just hit to the bone. It read something like "Well we all know that a big full size truck either this one or another model is going to burn gas prior to puchasing it, so there is no reason to complain about it after the fact like its a big surpise" That's what trucks do and we should expect it. I use mine mostly for weekend cruising and just plain "Looking Good " Now, if you plan to use it as a truck to go back and fourth to work and you work 20 miles or so one way or its your primary "do everything" vehicle..Well, expect to spend a lot for gas. I can only speak for myself and my experience thus far and it mine has been very pleasant. I bought mine, by the way, becuase I don't really buy new vehicles every other year. I will probably keep this one forever and if after 10 years or so I plan to get another I would just give this one to my Dad. Good Luck! Hopes this helps some.
giraldo Posts: 16I worked on a deal for a 06 Titan SE 4x4, no extras. Sticker is like 29,500. i can get it for 24,000 even. Is it a pretty good deal, it's not exactly the color i wanted but i can compromise.
dustman Posts: 3Only option on this baby was some floor mats. I figured I could add a lot of stuff as after market parts (if I need them). I mainly just wanted a basic pick up truck. Previously I had looked at the Toyota Tacoma, Nissan Frontier, Pontiac Vibe, and even the Honda Element. I couldn't pass up the all around package on the Titan though, plus to get a v-8 at this price level is amazing. Speaking of price I got the XE with the floor mats for $18062 +TTL. That is over $6000 off the sticker price with the destination charge included. I bought at Continental Nissan in Coutryside, IL (just outside of Chicago). The experience was wonderful plus they have a car wash on site and offer lifetime free car washes. Not too bad IMO, not I'm going to add a Line-x spray on bed liner as my first aftermarket add on.

I'm looking for the same truck. Where in Phoenix did you get your deal?
Bob Lindgren
auburnjld Posts: 4I've been offered a price on a 06 Titan SE (Popular, Trac, Tow Pkgs) for about $2000 below invoice, including rebates. I'm pretty sure I can get that price much lower. There are several dealerships that have very similar vehicles in stock so I should be able to get into an apples-to-apples bidding competition. Having said that, I wanted to wait until the 2007 models come out and then make a purchase on a 2006. Would I be able to get a significantly better deal waiting until the end of summer or am I only looking at a couple of hundred dollars difference and limited inventory at that time?
Thanks for your help.
rvrider Posts: 1It all depends on what you need to accomplish with a truck. For towing, you can't beat it for the price. It's great for hauling a family of five. It's fun to drive and gets a lot of compliments for its' appearance.
As any intelligent consumer would know, the Titan's fuel consumption is high - as it will be for any heavy-hauler. You can't get a lot of power without paying for it. If you don't need power and/or room, consider a smaller (wind cross-section), lighter, weaker (6-banger) truck. That said, the Titan fits my needs perfectly! I'm happy because it does what I want, it's fun to drive, and I can afford to fill the tank.
Comments about the interior quality not being good are subjective and silly from my perspective. Our other car is a loaded Volvo XC. These two vehicles should not be compared. From my perspective, trucks shouldn't be luxurious. If that's what you want, you should ask yourself why you're buying a truck. Trucks are meant for utility, to be kicked around. I considered the $40K to $50K trucks with the fancy interiors, but I couldn't shake the feeling that it was for the ego-trip types or contractors who live in their trucks and can pay for it with pre-tax income.

let me know what u guys think
FWIW, Carmax will take $6,500 off MSRP for a truck that is comparable to yours. I checked another "no haggle low price" dealer in my area and they offered $5,700 off MSRP on their web site. Last Sept. when I bought my 05 KC LE, I was able to get a fantastic deal, but I think CCs are not discounted as much as KCs are, but I don't know that for a fact. Another low price dealer here lists a truck similar to yours for around $29,282, or about $5,650 off MSRP. CarsDirect.com indicates that, in this area, $29,245 or about $5,680 off MSRP, is a reasonable price. So you gotta believe that if Carmax will quote their price with no haggling, the others would obviously match it pretty easily.
These prices are, of course, plus TTL and fees.
When I bought last year I found dealers willing to go a good bit below what they advertised in the paper or on the net. I was convinced there were hidden incentives for them to move the 05 models to clear the way for the 06s (in some cases, pretty hefty incentives). For example, my truck MSRP'ed for just over 36, and I was OTD for 28,5. Go figure.
Good luck. These are great trucks. I'm still on my honeymoon.
