Areas of Assessment
Updated Test Structure
The WMS-IV has had significant changes to the overall test structure. Based on feedback from customers, we are introducing four new subtests and modifying three existing subtests.
4 subtests were added:
- Spatial Addition
- Symbol Span
- Design Memory
- General Cognitive Screener
3 subtests retained with modifications:
- Logical Memory
Although the stories remain the same as seen in WMS-III for ages 16-69 years old, the repetition trial for Story B has been dropped to increase the consistency with previous editions. For the older age range of 65-90 years old, a new story was developed with content more relevant. The story is shorter and repeated once to enable adequate floor through age 90. You can obtain immediate versus delay and recognition versus delay contrast scores.
- Verbal Paired Associates
It now includes a combination of difficult and easy items. For the younger age group (16-69 years) there are 14 items of which 10 are hard. For the older age group (65-90 years), there are 10 items of which six are hard. Delayed Free Recall Trial has been added while Recognition Trial has increased its level of difficulty. You can obtain immediate versus delay and recognition versus delay contrast scores.
- Visual Reproduction
While following the same structure and format as seen in WMS-III, there have been a few changes to the subtest. Recognition Trial has been shortened and scoring has been improved. Based on Munro Cullum's research, scoring is easier and faster than previously experienced and emphasizes recall with less focus on drawing accuracy. You can obtain immediate versus delay and recognition versus delay contrast scores.
8 subtests were eliminated:
- Information & Orientation
- Spatial Span
- Mental Control
- Faces
- Digit Span
- Family Pictures
- Letter Number
- Word List (CVLT-II can be entered into Index)
What's New
Spatial Addition
Based on "N-Back Paradigm", Spatial Addition requires minimal motor function as the client must:
- Remember location of dots on two separate pages
- Add or subtract locations
- Hold and manipulate visual spatial information
Symbol Span
A "Visual analog to Digit Span", clients are asked to remember the design and the left to right sequence of the design. The clients are then asked to select the correct design from foils and choose them in the correct sequence.
No more motor requirements
Design Memory
Containing four items of increasing difficulty, Design Memory evaluates immediate and delayed recall as well as delayed recognition. It does not include drawing and reduces the opportunity to guess the correct response. You can obtain scores for spatial, details, and correct content in the correct location as well as contrast scores for spatial versus detail, immediate versus delayed, and recognition versus delayed.
Obtain scores for spatial, details, and correct content in the correct location.
Cognitive Screener
This new screener can be used to quickly evaluate significant cognitive impairment. You can assess:
- Temporal orientation
- Mental control
- Clock drawing
- Memory
- Inhibitory control
- Verbal productivity
Also available are classification tables that translate total scores into Average, Low, Moderately low, and Very low.
WMS–IV Flexible Approach
For use with the WMS-IV kit, new materials and data are now available that enable more flexible assessment based on individual client needs and examiner preferences.
- New record form and corresponding normative data allow brief administration and generation of alternative memory indexes.
- Additional new record form and corresponding normative data enable administration of new supplemental subtests (Logos and Names). The subtests provide an alternative memory index that eliminates motor demands on clients.
- Applicable normative information is available for all current WMS–IV users at no charge via a software update for scoring and reporting software users or via an electronic norms disk for non-software users.
Read the WMS–IV Flexible Approach Information Sheet
The WMS-IV offers a number of subtest configurations that yield Immediate, Delayed, Visual and Auditory Memory Index scores. The combinations of subtests reflect the desire to reduce administration time and to address specific clinical situations (e.g., limited motor ability).
The Standard WMS-IV: This consists of the 7 primary subtests that comprise the full WMS-IV battery and provide coverage for all the memory indexes.
The OAA* Battery: The OAA battery was developed in the standard WMS-IV as a shorter battery for use with older adults ages 65 to 90. This battery configuration was made available for examinees ages 16 through 69 in the WMS-IV Flex. The OAA battery uses LM, VR, and Verbal Paired Associates (VPA) to derive Immediate, Delayed, Auditory, and Visual Indexes.
The LMVR and LMDE* Batteries:
Two shorter alternative batteries were developed: LMVR, consisting of Logical Memory (LM) and Visual Reproduction (VR), and LMDE, consisting of Logical Memory and Designs (DE). LM and VR are the most frequently used subtests in the previous editions of the WMS and provide coverage for all the memory indexes. The second configuration of LM and DE retains the
content coverage with reduced motor demands.
The VRLO and LONA Batteries:
The last set of alternate batteries focuses on using supplemental subtests for assessing visual memory, which is a difficult construct to measure. During the development of the WMS-IV, two additional memory subtests were created: Logos (LO) and Names (NA). These two subtests provide optional measures of visual memory with the understanding that auditory memory functioning will also affect performance on these tests.
*LMDE and OAA batteries can be collected using standard WMS-IV record forms and an accompanying worksheet provided in the WMS-IV Flexible Manual.

Overview of the WMS-IV: Flexible Approach
Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD
The WMS®–IV Flexible Approach uses core and supplemental memory measures to expand the usability and utility of the Wechsler Memory Scale®–Fourth Edition (WMS–IV; Wechsler, 2009). The WMS®–IV Flexible Approach enables clinicians to identify memory difficulties by using alternate indexes derived from new subtest configurations. These alternate indexes and supplemental subtests were designed to create shorter or alternate memory assessments for use with the standard WMS–IV kit. The WMS–IV Flexible Approach allows the examiner to complete a survey of memory functions when a comprehensive evaluation of memory functioning is not required or cannot be completed.
During this one hour webinar, the presenter will describe the WMS®–IV Flexible Approach Batteries. The focus will be on the available subtest combinations clinicians can use to derive Index scores for Immediate, Delayed, Visual, and Auditory Memory.

Frequently asked questions follow. Click on a question to see the response.
On the Brief Cognitive Status Exam, Item 11 (Inhibition), the examiner is supposed to administer the sample item, and then tell the examinee to do the same thing for the actual item. After I demonstrate the entire row and tell them I want them to do the "same thing," should the examinee redo the first row that I just showed them and continue on, or should they begin with Line 2 (and continue from where I left off)?
The examinee begins back at the first item of the first row. The maximum number of points for this item is 24, reflecting the 24 shapes in the item.
The verbal load on many of the Visual Memory and Visual Working Memory subtest instructions seems substantial. We are concerned that the difficulties a client may experience in understanding the directions may cloud the results of these Visual Memory subtests.
Working memory is presented for a visual modality in WMS–IV as the Visual Working Memory Index. This index is derived from the sum of scaled scores for Spatial Addition and Symbol Span. Construction of stimuli used for these subtests purposely minimized the degree to which the stimuli could be verbalized and, subsequently, invoking the verbal working memory system. VWMI correlates at .53 with Verbal Comprehension, similar to the correlation with Processing Speed (r = .51), but less than Perceptual Reasoning (r = .67) and Working Memory (r = .62). There is no evidence of a negative impact to VWMI relative to other skill areas in the clinical samples with significant language deficits. If you have a concern about a specific client not understanding the instructions, it is allowable to repeat the examples and directions until they understand the task.
Please explain why the Designs task is better than the Faces task. Besides the fact that it is more difficult to verbally mediate the Designs task, and that there may be other confounds on a face memory task, it seems that there are significant executive functioning demands with Designs and it appears to be an incredibly difficult task! (i.e., there are lots of distracters that have many similarities to the target stimuli; consequently, establishing relevant from irrelevant may be difficult).
Face memory is a specific type of memory function that is often impaired in clinical groups with known social perception deficits (e.g., Schizophrenia, Autism) and is sometimes sensitive to right–left differences in temporal lobe epilepsy. The WMS–III Faces subtest has a relatively high guess rate that lowers its reliability relative to other memory tasks. Faces generally has low communality with other memory measures. The Faces subtest is useful for specific types of memory evaluations, but results may not operate as expected as a general indicator of visual memory. The Designs subtest was developed specifically to measure spatial and detail segments of memory functioning, as well as the integration of these in recall. This follows the segmentation of the visual system that has a dorsal stream, which processes primarily visual-spatial aspects of memory and the ventral stream that processes visual details with the purpose of attaching verbal labels where possible. Most visual memory measures do not enable the examiner to differentiate the nature of the visual memory problem and, therefore, makes interpretation more difficult. As far as executive functioning or attention to detail is concerned, the Designs subtest is comparable to most visual memory measures in this respect. For example, in the Faces subtest, the distracter faces are similar to one of the target faces. Family Pictures (WMS–III) and Picture Memory (WRAML–II) require attention to details, as well as visual scanning and search abilities. Tests such as the Rey-Complex Figure are used to measure executive functioning (see Bernstein & Waber, 1996) and visual memory. The Designs subtest requires fewer demands on executive functioning than other commonly used visual memory measures.
What are Contrast Scores and how do I use them?
Contrast scores enable you to partition overlapping variance between related abilities or a precursor ability of the construct of interest. In the contrast score name, the first score is the control variable and the second score is the dependent measure. For example, in the Logical Memory Immediate Recall vs. Delayed Recall contrast scaled score, the Logical Memory I scaled score is the control variable and the Logical Memory II scaled score is the dependent measure.
Contrast scaled scores are scaled on a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3, but should not be considered a replacement for the standard age-adjusted scaled scores. Contrast scores supplement standard age-adjusted scores and answer specific questions regarding an examinee's performance. They should not be reported or interpreted as being the examinee's performance relative to same-age peers.
Continuing with the Logical Memory example, the standard age-adjusted scaled score answers the question, "Is the examinee's Logical Memory Delayed Recall impaired?" while the contrast score answers the question, "Is the examinee's Logical Memory Delayed Recall impaired given their initial encoding of the stories during Immediate Recall?" This contrast score reflects the examinee's performance during delayed recall controlling for performance during immediate recall. In other words, the Logical Memory II scaled score is being adjusted for the Logical Memory I scaled score.
Using the contrast score to supplement the information provided by the standard age-adjusted score, the interpretation of the two scores may be, "Client A's Logical Memory Delayed Recall is in the Borderline range of functioning in comparison to same age peers. However, given the amount of material initially encoded during Immediate Recall, Client A's performance is within the Low Average range of functioning."
Contrast scores between 8 and 12 indicate that performance on the control and dependent variables is not significantly different. For example, the examinee's delayed recall is what you would expect given their initial encoding of the stories. Contrast scores greater than 12 suggest, for example, that delayed recall is better than expected given their initial encoding of the stories. Contrast scores less than 8 suggest delayed recall is worse than expected given the examinee's initial encoding of the stories. For further case studies using Contrast scores, see the Contrast Scaled Scores presentation on the WMS–IV website.
Which medications were listed as acceptable and how did you decide they were? What medications were examinees taking, e.g., Aricept for Alzheimer's?
The exclusion and inclusion criteria in the WMS–IV Technical and Interpretive Manual Table 2.1 and Appendix D, respectively, list medication guidelines used in the normative sample and special groups. Medications were designated as acceptable, provisionally acceptable, or excluded during standardization case collection. A key factor in deciding the acceptability of a medication was its impact on the examinee's functioning during test administration. The Neppe Psychological Symptom Questionnaire (NPSQ) and NPSQ Acceptance Criteria Checklist were used in the initial screening to gather information on medication type, reason for taking it, dosage/frequency, and any side effects/symptoms within 2 days prior to testing. Cases that involved excluded medications or did not meet NPSQ criteria were excluded from the study. The WMS–IV development team made decisions on a case-by-case basis if medications were not included on one of the three lists or were excluded for other reasons (e.g., off-label medication use). A variety of medications were being taken by individuals in the normative and clinical groups. In all circumstances, allowed medications were not suspected of interfering with an examinee's test performance. Examiners reported on whether they felt medication use affected examinee test performance.
Do you have more information about the clinical groups reported in the WMS–IV (e.g., TBI, ALZ)?
The WMS–IV Technical and Interpretive Manual lists the Exclusion criteria (Table 2.1) and the general and special group-specific inclusion criteria (Appendix D) reported. Where appropriate, DSM-IV-TR criteria and other well-established guidelines for diagnostic purposes were followed. When possible, information regarding premorbid functioning was gathered.
Where can I get training on administering the WMS–IV?
A brief training video has been produced by Pearson and will be available to all WMS–IV users. You may also contact our customer service line for specific questions about the WMS–IV, including requests for webinars or site training sessions.
In the past, the Wechsler Memory Test came with a cardboard easel so that the instruction panels are not visible to the examinee. The WMS–IV does not. What did the developers consider when they changed the format of the stimulus books?
We received many customer complaints about the durability of the WMS–III Stimulus Books. Using a flat Stimulus Book should improve the lifespan of the materials and improve administration. It's easier to administer Symbol Span, Designs Recognition, and Visual Reproduction with a flat Stimulus Book because the examinee is required to point to a response. The flat presentation also reduces the likelihood that the examiner will need to ask the examinee for a verbal response. For the Spatial Addition and Designs tasks, a flat Stimulus Book presents the same visual plane as the examinee's responses, reducing the confounding spatial resolution issues between the presentation and response mode. The WMS–IV was normed using a flat Stimulus Book. If you prop up the book, it is considered a nonstandardized administration and would possibly invalidate test results. To facilitate the flat orientation, all correct responses have been moved to the Record Forms.
My office just changed our operating system from XP to VistA. We were told by a Pearson representative that there is no upgrade for the CVLT–II. Is that true?
CVLT–II was recently certified to work on Vista operating systems, both 32 bit and 64 bit OS, so there should be no issue. An update is not required to work with WMS–IV.
Why is there no opportunity to repeat the Joe Garcia story? Many clinicians like to evaluate if repeating the story benefits the examinee and if there is a difference in narrative recall for immediate and delayed recall for each of the stories.
The repetition of Joe Garcia was dropped because there is already a learning task on Verbal Paired Associates. If you repeat the Joe Garcia story, you cannot compare how well someone performs on delayed recall when they have the repetition versus when they do not. It was necessary to repeat a story for the older age group because there would be insufficient floor if it was not repeated.
Why is the WMS–IV devoid of human figures?
The decision was made to omit the Faces subtest from WMS–IV and include it in the Advanced Clinical Solutions for WAIS-IV and WMS–IV Social Cognition battery. The Faces subtest measures a very specific memory process that is not necessarily the best measure for routine neuropsychological evaluations. If you are assessing individuals with Schizophrenia or an Autism Spectrum disorder, you may find the ACS Social Perception subtest very beneficial. The subtest provides valuable information about facial processing without the memory component If you prefer to use Family Pictures or Faces, you may continue to use the WMS–III version. Remember that the norms only get softer, so if an individual is mildly impaired, the older norms may not detect the more subtle memory impairment.
The Spatial Addition task seems as if it would be too confusing for impaired or elderly patients. If you are testing patients with Alzheimer's disease, can they understand the task and get a scoreable response?
The Spatial Addition task is for examinees, ages 16–69 years, who are taking the Adult Battery. Many of the examinees classified as Probable Dementia in the Alzheimer's Type group were administered the Older Adult Battery and did not have the opportunity to take Spatial Addition. The Mild Cognitive Impairment group did not have difficulty understanding the task and producing scoreable responses. If an examinee is younger than age 65 and has difficulty understanding the task due to severe dementia, they most likely will have difficulty throughout much of the evaluation. In the moderate and mild intellectually disabled groups, the VWMI, which Spatial Addition contributes to, was consistent with their overall working memory abilities and General Ability.
Why was Digit Span dropped from WMS–IV?
One of the WMS–IV development goals was to eliminate content that overlaps with the WAIS–IV, which affected a few subtests. Dropping Digit Span ensured that the same construct (i.e., working memory) was not measured in the same modality in both instruments and ensured that disparate working memory scores between the two batteries would not occur. WMS–III and WAIS–III had disparate working memory scores because different subtests contributed to the Working Memory Indexes. WAIS-III and WMS–III Indexes included Letter-Number Sequencing, but Spatial Span was the second contributing subtest in WMS–III with Digit Span considered only as an optional subtest. By dropping Digit Span, the WMS–IV has a strong focus on components of visual working memory and the WAIS-IV focuses on auditory working memory.
Why was Letter-Number Sequencing dropped from WMS–IV?
The elimination of Letter-Number Sequencing ensured that the same construct (i.e., working memory) was not measured in the same modality in both instruments. Both WAIS-III and WMS–III included Letter-Number Sequencing in the Working Memory Index. The elimination of Letter-Number Sequencing strengthens the focus of WMS–IV on components of visual working memory, while WAIS–IV focuses on auditory working memory.
Why were the Mental Control, Information, and Orientation subtests dropped from WMS–IV?
These subtests were moved from the WMS–IV to the Brief Cognitive Status Exam (BCSE). Their usefulness in providing sensitivity and differentiation between normal and clinical performance and as a brief screening of an individual's level of cognitive functioning was proven during standardization. The BCSE yielded similar or better information than the MMSE and AQT. Each of these subtests was optional in the WMS–III and customer surveys revealed that they were rarely administered.
Why was Faces dropped from WMS–IV?
The Faces subtest was revised and is part of the Advanced Clinical Solutions for WAIS-IV and WMS–IV. Faces is a specific memory process that does not correlate well with other memory functions and has limited sensitivity as a general visual memory tool. An examinee's performance on the Faces subtest provides important information about social cognition, because it measures face discrimination as well as recognition.
Why was Family Pictures dropped?
Family Pictures was dropped because it is not a true visual memory task, it is primarily a visual-verbal association task. For the most part, Family Pictures is a verbal measure resulting in the WMS–III Visual Memory Index not holding well together. The WMS–IV Visual Memory Index is a more pure visual memory measure than the WMS–III. The Family Pictures subtest could be failed for a number of reasons including, naming difficulties, spatial memory problems, difficulties remembering visual details, impairments in visual-verbal association memory etc. The WMS–IV visual memory subtests help differentiate performance on some aspects of these while minimizing the impact of verbal encoding.
Why was Spatial Span dropped?
Examiners expressed concerns about tracking and recording of examinee responses which contributed to the decision to drop Spatial Span from the WMS–IV. One of the development goals for WMS–IV was to develop visual working memory tasks that require mental manipulation of visual information which Spatial Span does not since neither the backward nor forward condition require the examinee to operate on the information that have been shown.
Why was Word List dropped?
The Word List subtest was optional in WMS–III. The elimination of this subtest shortened the overall administration of the WMS–IV while the ability to substitute the CVLT-II scores for the Auditory, Immediate and Delayed Indexes was added to give examiners flexibility in the measures they wish to use including a type of word list task.
Why does WMS–IV focus on Visual Working Memory with out Verbal Working Memory?
A development goal for the WMS–IV was to avoid overlapping modalities and constructs with the WAIS-IV. The working memory tasks in the WAIS-IV require greater verbal demand thus the WMS–IV working memory focuses on a visual modality.
I often use Demographically Adjusted Norms, will those be available and if so, when?
These types of adjusted norms will be available through the ACS software late 2009.
I test low functioning individuals who appear to have difficulty completing the WMS–IV tasks. Is the WMS–IV appropriate for this population?
The WMS–IV showed good clinical utility, reliability, and concurrent validity during standardization, particularly in clinical groups. Although individuals express difficulty with these subtests, even moderately impaired individuals were able to complete some of the items, particularly on Designs. The Designs subtest is perceived by many individuals to be difficult specifically because the stimuli are difficult to verbalize. The language centers of the brain naturally want to name objects to ease encoding and thus invoke verbal memory processes to aid visual memory functioning. The Designs subtest has multiple items of varying difficulty subsequently it is not difficult for examinees to get some points. The examinee may need to be encouraged to try even though it seems difficult. Interestingly, the intellectually disabled (mild and moderate) had some of their best scores on the Designs subtest. On Spatial Addition we did not see very many 0 scores during standardization so even very impaired people were completing the task correctly on early items, they just tended to discontinue earlier.

Grae's Rating:
Perhaps the only thing more tiring than movie vampires without bite is rehashing Civil War drama. So on paper, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is a jet of air aimed directly in your nostrils so you can't breathe for a second--but the actual execution of the movie forces me to omit the word "fresh." It owes a great deal of thanks to the geniuses who invented wire work, the Wachowski brothers for Bullet Time, Bram Stoker, and Seth Grahame-Smith for coming up with a great initial idea, but it owes audiences an apology for never being better than the sum of its parts.
Just to be clear: I am not surprised that this is a dumb movie that just aims to be fun and ridiculous (hereafter referred to as "fundiculous"). I didn't see the trailer and think, "Oh, this should be enlightening and teach me something about myself and others." I was just hoping for it to be as imaginative as its title. Grahame-Smith hits the same Lincoln plot points you learned in grade school, like Abe growing up in Indiana, hating slavery, and being a stealthy axeman. Mary Todd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) even goes so far as to comment on how honest he is (Get it? Get it?). Of course artistic license must be taken, like his mother being killed by a vampire. But how do I know, I haven't seen the coroner's report.
When Abe learns more about the vamps from Henry Sturgess (Dominic Cooper), he takes to hiding in plain sight as a lowly clerk in a general store, so he can chop the local ghoulies into little tiny pieces without anyone noticing. He slays the bad guys in the manner one would expect, with entrepreneurs (Jimmi Simpson) and African-American friends (Anthony Mackie) by his side. Soon he stops slaying vampires and becomes the most powerful man in America, but the vampires still want to inaugurate him as the Dead-ident of the United States.
Director Timur Bekmambetov's films, such as Wanted and Night Watch, are always good for action and intense CG that seems too ambitious and cutting-edge to be pulled off properly. And although visually noteworthy, I always have trouble with their stories. They have plenty of super cool spinning bullet shots but are about assassins that like to weave fabric. They just miss the mark. Lincoln is by far the most coherent, but it relies solely on the gimmick that it's funny to have an ex-President using a silver-coated axe to fight mythical creatures. There's nothing else there. Combined with chase scenes on top of horses (not riding them, mind you, but on top of them) and tons of slowed-down flips and spins, it just feels like a more-interesting-than-usual effects reel for a digital effects company. However, to note: slow-mo stove pipe hat shots are always good for a laugh, I must admit.
I think the most fun thing to come out of this film is the game my Movies.com co-critic Dave White and our friend Casual Gary were inspired to play afterwards. In order to figure out what the sequel to this film will be, take any figure from history (bonus points for using obscure US presidents), put a colon after the name, and add a strange hobby or job. The best of the lot includes Benjamin Franklin: Amusement Park Exorcist, Thomas Jefferson: Junior Lifeguard, James A. Garfield: Kind of a Sassmouth, and Jimmy Carter: Skateboard Trickster. You're welcome.

Jacksonville lands another Patriot: Jaguars awarded DT Kyle Love off waivers from Pats
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Jaguars have added another defensive lineman from New England, landing fourth-year tackle Kyle Love off waivers from the Patriots.
The Jaguars claimed defensive end Brandon Deaderick off waivers from the Pats earlier this week.
The Patriots released Love on Wednesday after he was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Love had lost about 20 pounds before receiving the diagnosis about two weeks ago. He has since gained about half of it back.
Love started the first 11 games last season next to Vince Wilfork. Deaderick started the last five.
Love joined the Patriots as a rookie free agent out of Mississippi State in 2010 and started 25 of the 41 regular-season games in which he played. He had 80 tackles and 5½ sacks.

No-Drawback Jeep Wrangler Roll CagePosted in How To on October 1, 2011
You never plan on rolling your Jeep, but it does happen. Most factory roll cages in '76-newer CJs and Wranglers are okay. But when your safety is on the line, okay doesn't always cut the mustard. We had been planning on replacing the factory cage in our '89 Wrangler for some time. Ours had the fastback-style rear downtubes and lap belts that didn't offer much peace of mind when the author had his young children in it. In 1992 the factory did away with the fastback rear cage design of the '76-'91 CJs and Wranglers and added three-point seatbelts and an inverted L-shaped rear bar that extended over rear passengers' heads. It was a better design, but even though the rear passengers were better protected, the CJs used only the rear four-point rollbar and Wrangler cages tie a pair of front runners only to the windshield. There are no downtubes to the floor. In the event of a rollover, the windshield glass smashes and the windshield frame distorts, increasing the possibility of head injury to the front occupants. Adding downbars to the front runners of the Wrangler cage is a quick way to bolster safety, but most home-built and aftermarket options limit foot room up front and can interfere with the E-brake pedal and release.
So to make a long intro short, we had been eyeballing aftermarket cage options for our Wrangler when GenRight Off Road introduced its new Full Cage Kit for CJ-7s, YJs, and TJs. We liked a lot of elements offered in the GenRight cage kit, but most-specifically we dug the front laser-cut stanchions that don't impede front foot room or interfere with the E-brake function. The 3⁄16-inch stanchions hug the side of the tub and bolt to the lower door hinge, increasing tub strength and stiffness. The tubes are all 1¾-inch, 0.120-wall DOM cut and coped for assembly. Furthermore, you can add options to the Full Cage Kit like extra grab handles, X-braces, windshield V-bars, and more. But best of all for us is the fact that the cage greatly increases protection for rear occupants and includes weld-in bungs for use with three-point shoulder belts. We went with the standard Full Cage Kit, which can be shipped to your door in three boxes. Once it arrived, we gutted our Wrangler's interior, installed the 3⁄16-inch floor plates and stanchions, and burned it all together with our Lincoln Electric Power Mig Dual welder. Now we have full protection for our front passengers and don't have to suffer that look from the wife when we load up the kids in the back.

Sold worldwide under various names, the Chevrolet Aveo5 offers good gas mileage and a decent ride for as cheap as the car is. Its bright colors, sporty look, and reasonable price made it a popular choice for first time buyers looking for an affordable car.
The Chevrolet Aveo5 was introduced in 2004 as a competitor in the subcompact market. Originally built by Daewoo, which was purchased by GM, it was redesigned for the American market in mind. It was been a surprising success for Chevrolet.The Aveo5 was the five-door hatchback available in the Aveo line. The model was discontinued for the 2011 model year when the Aveo was redesigned and renamed Sonic for 2012.Options for the Aveo5 were targeted to please younger drivers.
Due to clever design and spritely colors, the Chevrolet Aveo5's exterior looked bigger than it is. Equipped with standard 14-inch steel wheels and sporting GM's Ecotec 1.6-liter, 108 horsepower engine, it came with a standard five-speed manual transmission. It can go from zero to 60 mph in 10.7 seconds.
Fuel economy estimates for the Chevrolet Aveo5 are 27/35 mpg city/highway with the manual transmission. Automatic transmission gas mileage is 25/34 mpg city/highway. This is not as good as some of the Aveo5's competitors.
The Aveo5 offers MacPherson strut front independent suspension and torsion beam rear suspension. Additional features included a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, 12V front power outlet(s), power steering, Bluetooth hands-free calling, roadside assistance, destination guidance, and destination download. Chevy provided OnStar for six months at no charge, but a subscription is required for continued use.
The LS trim package includes air-conditioning, cruise control, keyless entry, a CD/MP3 player, sunroof, anti-lock brakes, power windows, 15-inch steel wheels, and carpeted floor mats.
The Aveo5 offers ample head room due to its height. The 60/40 split folding rear seat increases room for cargo. The trunk provides 12.4 cubic feet of storage space. It was otherwise largely considered basic transportation without much other reason to purchase than cost of operation.
Renamed the Aveo5 in 2007, Chevy offers the Aveo hatchback in two versions, the SVM (Special Value Model) and LS. Beginning with the 2007 model year, the Aveo SVM is only offered in the hatchback style. Despite the model's new name, the car maintained the styling and features of previous years.
The Aveo5 seats five and comes standard with front airbags. (Curtain side airbags are not offered on any of the Aveo models.) As with other Aveos, the Aveo5 has front wheel drive, and a five-speed manual transmission comes standard. However, a four-speed automatic is offered as an option.
The 2007 models run on a 103 horsepower, four-cylinder engine and 14-inch wheels.The 2009 model of the Aveo5 came standard with OnStar assistance and boasted a restyled interior and exterior. In 2010, the entire Chevy Aveo line received an extra two horsepower before making way for the (much-improved) Chevrolet Sonic, which is still sold in much of the world as the Aveo.
2011 Chevrolet Aveo5
Compact, Hatchback
The 2011 Chevrolet Aveo5 is best described as economical, a good performer, and spacious.
2010 Chevrolet Aveo5
2009 Chevrolet Aveo5
The 2009 Chevrolet Aveo5 is the hatchback model of Chevrolet's smallest and most affordable car.

A winner was selected from 84 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
Wired 2 Sound. website: http://www.wired2sound.com.au
We are a weekend master class that tours the country ( Australia) teaching students singing, song writing, styling tips, performance, movement and about photo shoots with special guest performers and speakers who are all at the top of their chosen music industry field. We have 2 classes one for 10-15 year olds and one for 16+ . Whe started these classes so it would teach the beginner or the professional performer tips and tricks about the industry they usually wouldnt be able to get access to and that money usually couldnt buy. Its a jam packed class with high profile teachers who have already had success like myself and what to give back to up and coming singers who have goals and dreams of being a star. Its about individuality, x factor and standing out. But above all its a bout being the artist they want to be.
We are targeting young 10-17 year olds who love music, singing and dancing but we also have older students so it cant be too cutesy. The main target is girls but we also have boys so it cant be too girly. Its a new brand and a new market that we are targeting. Our potential clients are fun, creative and up with all the trends inmusic. They are cool without trying and have talent to boot. They are from all different music backgrounds from pop to hip hop to country music.
The logo needs to be modern and fresh and . It needs to be landscape to fit the logo area that is already on the website http://www.wired2sound.com.au in the top left hand corner where it says wired 2 sound. Above all the logo needs to be recognisable when people look at it . Above all it's a music school for singers and performers who want to be stars but the logo doesnt need to have a star in it.
Goodluck and i cant wait to see what creative ideas the designers have.

Westerly market has 25 years of defying the odds
Family-run Dunns Corners Market thrives despite nearby chains
Westerly - Tony Spino still remembers the doubters.
"People told us we would not make it," the owner of the Dunns Corners Market recalled.
"They told us the big stores would swallow us up," added his wife, Cheryl Spino. "But here we are, 25 years later, still doing what we do," she said.
From May 2-4, the Spinos will celebrate the quarter-century anniversary of their independent, family-run grocery store at 5 Langworthy Road in the Dunns Corners section of town.
To mark the milestone, the market will offer specials such as littleneck clams for a quarter each, Virginia baked ham at $2.50 a pound, and gourmet potato salad for $2.50 a quart. There also will be promotional deals, tastings, raffles and giveaways.
A portion of the store's sales on May 3 will be donated to the local Family Housing Support project and the Dream Ride/Special Olympics.
It's a celebration for the Spinos and their employees, who have weathered the infusion of big-box stores (a Wal-Mart Supercenter just across the street and Super Stop & Shop just down the road) and the Great Recession of 2007.
They have adapted with the times, adding more healthy and nutritious products as customers have requested them, and expanding about a decade ago to include a kitchen where ready-to-go meals like meatloaf, shepherd's pie and liver and onions are prepared daily. They also do a big lunchtime business, with contractors and other workers stopping by for sandwiches, salads and hot dishes.
The Spinos attribute their longevity and success to the personal service they provide, the high quality of their products, and the ease of shopping at their store.
The market is known for its butcher shop - where meat is trimmed and cut on request and the hamburger is freshly ground five or six times a day.
"We have a tray of hamburg and we cut and grind more when it's gone. We're cutting and filling all day long," Tony Spino said.
There's always a butcher on duty at the Dunns Corners Market, and shoppers routinely ask what kind of roast or cut they should buy, how much they will need and how it should be prepared.
The meatball mix is a big seller, as well as the cheddar and bacon stuffed hamburgers, marinated skirt steak and store-made hot and sweet sausage.
There's a full-service supermarket - albeit a small one - where all the typical supermarket items can be found, including produce, seafood, a deli and bakery. And every day, artisan breads are delivered from a bakery in the Bronx.
Today, Tony and Cheryl's son, Chris, works alongside his parents, primarily handling technology issues including ordering and pricing. His father runs the front of the house - the market and butcher shop - and his mother tends to the books and human resources issues. All told, the business employs 28 full- and part-time employees in the market and another dozen in its catering division, which can service any function up to 400 people.
Cheryl Spino said it seems like only yesterday when the couple opened the doors of their business on May 5, 1989.
Both had been employees at the old Chickadee Farms in Dunns Corners, and when that business closed, they were persuaded by faithful customers who wanted to see a small, independent grocery store continue in the neighborhood. Two of the customers even offered to finance the business, but the Spinos partnered with Broad View Garden Center and together built the plaza that includes both businesses with financing from Washington Trust.
Both the market and garden center continue to thrive.
"We just keep doing what we do best, and customers have been loyal," Cheryl Spino said.
And the Spinos have been loyal to the community. They are active in Chamber of Commerce initiatives and have stepped in to provide food and beverages to emergency responders and volunteers who helped to clean up after last year's major storms.
But they are grateful for their business and their ability to grow and change it with the times. Memorial Day is almost here, and that means the busy summer season for the Dunns Corners Market.
"We'll be busy now," Cheryl Spino said. "But in the off season, we will find some time to get away and relax."

Commercial and consumer drones are coming and they're coming fast.
In Marketwatch's Revolution Investing Newsletter, I've been highlighting companies that will benefit from the many applications and markets that are about to be created as drones become mainstream over the next few years. Like it or not.
See, the most obvious applications for drones are agricultural, law enforcement and search and rescue missions. But drones (and to a further extent, robots) will also be patrolling campuses, driving buses, delivering packages and who knows what else. The cost of the components, technologies as well as the platforms that drones and robots run on are dropping to price points that make mainstream adoption inevitable.
I personally have had many hours of enjoyment as well as incredible high definition video footage from the DJI Phantom 2 quadcopter drone I recently purchased from Amazon.
A friend of mine asked me about other possible applications for drones so I reminded him of the times we felt lost in the wilderness in upstate New York while camping and hiking. Will lost hikers become mostly be a thing of the past? In a few years, campers and hikers will throw a drone up in the air to get a visual on their surroundings and routes. The cost will be less than $100 for a cheap aerial hiking drone that takes snapshots and you'll be able to get a really advanced one from Garmin and others in a few years for $1,000 or more if you want all the features they'll have by then.
So without any further ado, here are three publicly-traded companies that will directly benefit from the burgeoning drone revolution.
1. First up is IXYS Corp. /quotes/zigman/75667/delayed /quotes/nls/ixys IXYS . We're talking about a company that supplies power controllers and other power chipsets that every robot, drone and wearable sold will need. The common denominator of all electronic devices, drones and robots is that they need power. Controlling that power efficiently is obviously going to be a huge factor in making drones, robots and wearables cheap enough to operate in a power-starved world. Solar-powered units that don't need recharging still need power chips.
The company's growing its top line at 15% a year and earnings growth will be much bigger than that if management executes. IXYS is currently valued at less than 1x sales and is seeing huge demand from industrial power and communications markets. With $3 per share in net cash as well as zero debt, there's some financial flexibility here. The company should report at least a $1 per share in earnings next year, giving it a 10x forward price-to-earnings ratio.
If the company's management delivers on margins and topline growth, we're looking at up to $2 per share in earnings in two to three years.
I first highlighted IXYS a couple years ago when I turned from long-time alternative-energy bear to bull as the market finally bottomed. This was about the same time I published my book "100 Stocks for the Clean Tech Revolution" and I recently started buying some for myself.
2. Next up is Ambarella /quotes/zigman/12221594/delayed /quotes/nls/amba AMBA makes chipsets and software that record and transmit/upload HD video. The company's system-on-a-chip designs integrated HD video, image, and audio processing onto a single chip for delivering video and image quality, differentiated functionality, features, etc.
AMBA is trading at 4x sales and at at 25x forward P/E. With topline growth of 20%-30% a year for the last few and for the next few years. Investors are paying up a bit for this name as video capture and sharing is likely to become a bigger part of just about every connected device we use and own. The company does have nearly $7 a share in net cash, which gives management some financial flexibility. To be clear though, it's a long way down to "cheap" if the company doesn't deliver more topline growth in coming years.
3. The last name I'm highlighting for you today is InvenSense /quotes/zigman/6170982/delayed /quotes/nls/invn INVN , which, makes and sells micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) gyroscopes for motion tracking devices for all kinds of applications including smartphones, tablets … and drones. Drone growth, again, will be huge over the next five to 10 years and this is a company that is likely to have a component or two in many of the drones that will be sold and developed.
The company's got a $1.9 billion market cap, which gives a lot of potential upside from there, but with $150 million cash along with $125 million in long-term debt, this stock isn't as clean as the prior two picks. On the other hand, I'm looking at long-term revenue growth of at least 30% a year and potentially $3 earnings a share by 2017.
If you'd like to see other Drone Revolution stock picks, be sure to sign up for Revolution Investing and check out my recent newsletters about the topic. Likewise, I'd love to hear from any of you about other potential drone stock picks in the comments below or join the ongoing discussion here.

Alarmists have been quick to blame weather extremes of all kinds on global warming. The claim that "climate change" is responsible for extreme weather events has been repeated countless times. But what can the alarmists make of the fact that weather, here in the U.S., at least, is the least extreme in history?
Currently, there are fewer tornadoes in the U.S. than ever. This chart, created by Harold Brooks of NOAA and reproduced by Anthony Watts, shows tornado frequency at the lowest level since 1950:
The same is true of hurricanes. How many times have alarmists tried to tell us that global warming is causing increased hurricane activity? In fact, however, we currently are experiencing the longest stretch without a major hurricane hitting the United States in recorded history. This chart shows the occurrence of category 3 hurricanes from 1900 to the present. Currently, it has been a record 7 1/2 years since a category 3 hurricane landfall:
What is an alarmist to do? I suppose they could tell us that increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere are responsible for the extraordinary mildness of our current climate, but that probably wouldn't be a successful fundraising technique.

A degree in psychology & behavioral sciences at the graduate level explores the social, emotional and cognitive aspects of human behavior. Master's degrees within this major include, but are not limited to, psycholinguistics, counseling, and clinical, cognitive, developmental, child and experimental psychology. Depending on the degree, individuals in these programs may work in laboratory or research settings. Individuals holding a graduate degree in psychology can go on to assume careers as psychologists, counselors or educators with additional specializations. These programs typically take between one and three years to complete, though it depends on the nature of the degree.

An appeal against the decision to reject plans for a strip joint in Doncaster town centre has been launched.
It comes despite continued opposition from business owners and a nearby women's centre.
The planning application requested permission to change the Loaded pub on Printing Office Street into a lap dancing club, was rejected in December, following concerns about the possible side effects on the sensitive work carried out by women's charity Changing Lives.
But Enterprise Inns Plc have submitted an appeal against the refusal to Doncaster council, which is currently in progress.
Opponents to the scheme include Changing Lives, based opposite the proposed site on Cleveland Street.
Manager at the women's centre Diane Derbyshire has called the plans to overturn the planning refusal 'completely unnacceptable'.
She added: "We totally object to the location of a lap dancing club being situated anywhere near our premises."
"Changing Lives exists to support people wanting to leave the sex trade.
"A lap dancing club, which by association is linked to the sex industry, is not appropriate."
The women's centre provides support for vulnerable and disadvataged women who are experiencing violence, abuse, homelessness poverty as well as drug misuse and mental health difficulties.
Business owner Beverley Georgiou who runs the Four Seasons family restaurant on Printing Office Street has also spoken out in opposition to the appeal.
She continued: "A lap dancing club is not needed nor wanted in the town centre and does not contribute to building a positive image for Doncaster."

Acer AC700-1099 Chromebook Review: Cut to the Bone
Introduction and Design
We have our heads in the clouds. Once a dream, cloud computing is now common and used to support everything from file sharing to email. Here at PC Perspective, for example, we often make use of Dropbox. Storing certain files "in the cloud" is much easier than directly emailing them to and fro.
Google is one of the cloud's most ardent supporters. The Internet seems to be Google's answer to everything from emails to file sharing to document editing. All these tasks can be accomplished online through a browser with a Google utility.
When Google announced that it was going to develop an entire OS based off its Chrome web browser there was much shock, speculation and excitement. In hindsight, however, this development was probably inevitable given the company's love of everything online. Now, Google Chrome OS is a retail product. Let's find out if a cloud OS can compete with more traditional options.
Read on for our full review of the Acer AC700-1099 Chromebook!
The system we'll be using to provide us with a look at Google Chrome OS is the Acer AC700-1099, one of just two Chromebooks currently available. Though it has similar specs to the more well known Samsung Series 5, it's far less expensive at just $349.99.
Acer's Chromebook is essentially a large netbook, and its specifications are average when compared to other products of similar size with a similar price. Indeed, the reliance on Atom could prove a weakness now that AMD's Fusion processors are so prevalent.
Unlike previous reviews, performance will not be heavily weighted here. Instead, I want to provide readers with an understanding of the full Chromebook experience including both the hardware and the operating system. With that said, let's dive in to the Acer AC700.
While Samsung's Series 5 netbook proudly wears it Chromium roots on its lid, Acer's AC700 seems shy about what it's running. The only branding to be found on the tiny laptop is the Acer logo, laid in chrome plastic along the upper right hand corner. You might expect to see Google branding on the inside, at the very least, but it is again absent. The only label is a tiny Intel Atom logo below the left CTRL key.
The entire laptop seems afraid to attract attention. The only color available is a simple matte black which, although likely to earn the approval of fingerprint-phobes, won't catch anyone's eye. There aren't even any hints of chrome or colored accents, the previously mentioned Acer logo aside. It seems as if Acer management sat down its team of engineers and ordered them to make the company's first Chromebook as boring as possible.
Bashfulness is particularly disappointing in such an exciting new product. Buying a laptop with Google's new operating system is the kind of thing that gives geeks reason to jump for joy - yet this bland little Chromebook doesn't wish to share its exclusivity with the rest of the world.
Video News
Can I just install Chrome OS (since its open source) and gain the battery life benefits on my Windows Laptop?
There would probably be some battery performance benefits as the hardware would not be getting used as much as a Windows OS used it.
I don't think there would be any battery life benefit. This laptop is equipped the same as any Windows netbook, and battery life was about the same.
In theory there would be an increase in battery life due to Chrome OS - being a lighter system - using less resources and CPU cycles than Windows. However if the open source version of Chrome OS (called Chromium OS) does not support the energy saving CPU throttling software for your specific hardware that both OEM preloaded Chromebooks and Windows do, then you may not get a power saving.
Chrome OS is not open source.
The open source version of Chrome OS is called Chromium OS.
A fairly balanced review here but yet again so called "expert" reviewers are being too critical of Google. I have had a Samsung Chromebook for about two weeks and consider its build quality and useability far better than a netbook. Comparing everything against a traditional Windows platform laptop is wrong both from a hardware and software o/s perspective. (Just think of what we thought of Bill Gates after he hammered us with Vista o/s? In the early days of Microsoft just think of the over-the-top charges we all had to pay. Forgotten? I haven't.
Give Google a chance in this marketplace. Cloud computing is a new concept for many computer users but we are only just scratching the surface experiencing this different computer concept.
I do believe as an early adoptee I have probably paid a premium buying a new Chomebook. However I still use a Windows based desktop and laptop, so consider my Chromebook as an experiment. But the experiment has not failed and it is far too soon for reviewers to declare that it will. For instance, if we were to compare an Apple Air book with a Chromebook (either Acer or Samsung) we'd find a vast difference in price. Though the Air book could be considered as a much better feature option, its about three times the price of a Chromebook. On the other hand cloud computing could be far more productive and work out cheaper in the long run.
I say give Google a fair crack of the whip, figuratively speaking, and don't necessarily back Microsoft all the time. Last point to all you critics out there - keep your eye on the number of Chromebooks Amazon are managing to sell at the moment (August 2011), I think you'll be surprised.
Anyway that's my two pennies worth of comment from here in the United Kingdom.
what do you mean by "too critical of Google"? the review is well written, factual, and objective. it's very reasonable to compare the chromium netbooks (chromebooks) to netbooks (Win7starter/home basic), while it's the same segment of consumer usage scenarios.
It's apparent, that the chromium OS platform needs few months/years to develop to usable stage.
Disagree. Chromebook is not made for power users, in fact, look at the audience that Google is targeting in their ads on TV. Chromebook is made for "always on the go" internet junkies that like to tweet and cruise facebook. I think the issue is whether the infrastructure of the cell networks in the U.S. are ready to handle a forward thinking device (thinking that involves high-speed wireless no matter how remote you are). This is a small-end notebook that runs a web browser. OF COURSE you can't compare it to small-end notebooks that run an OS with native applications and have a file manager, etc. Maybe it will catch on when a user can write their midterm paper on the bus to the university while offline and sync back up when they hit campus.

You can't compare Windows 7 netbooks with Chromebooks based on looking at the hardware specs. Chromebooks run a lot faster than netbooks running on equivalent hardware, and they have much longer battery life for the same usage.
There are two very simple reasons for this. The first is that Chromebooks have a minimal OS running only a web browser, whereas Windows 7 netbooks have to run a fat Windows OS, and applications locally. Chromebooks on the other hand only run a minimal OS and a browser, and the applications run on a server in the cloud. That takes up much less memory and CPU time, and requires much less swapping from memory to disk than a Windows netbook. Less CPU time also means less power consumption and longer battery life out of the same hardware.
The second reason is that Chromebooks use a 16GB SSD hard drive which is super fast but super expensive if you want a large drive. Windows needs a large drive because it stores data and apps locally. Chromebooks don't because all it stores locally is the OS which includes the browser - everything else - your data and applications are in the cloud.
The main reason why you can't compare Chromebooks and Windows 7 netbooks is that they are completely different concepts doing completely different things. Despite similar appearance and similar hardware, Chromebooks are more different to Windows 7 than Android is to Windows 7 because of the way they are tied to the cloud. Not only is what you can do with it, and how it operates very different, but the user groups that would be interested in it are very different.
Chromebooks biggest advantage over Windows is that they require zero maintenance. With Windows the user is required to do OS configuration, maintenance and upgrades, driver installation and troubleshooting, app installation and upgrades, anti-virus installation and upgrades, defragging of the disk, reinstallation of the OS and apps from time to time when they become corrupted or unstable, and to learn how to do all this. Chromebooks just work - they do all this automatically without the user doing anything - and this is possible only with an integrated small footprint OS which come from one source and which doesn't permit user modification or user installation of drivers or applications.
Chromebooks zero maintenance is a big deal for non-techie home users who just want to use a computer for Internet access and not much more, and for businesses that have a server based IT infrastructure. As any IT manager managing Windows desktops will know, Windows desktops have a very high maintenance overhead, and while hardware costs are relatively cheap, labour costs required for maintaining Windows are not.
Windows netbooks are fine for cash strapped computer hobbyists who can't cough up the $150 in cash for a better laptop and who don't mind spending time maintaining Windows for free - indeed most computer hobbyists will see this as a labour of love. However if you run a business, you actually have to pay somebody to provision, update, secure and maintain the desktops, and that is not cheap. This works out to be several times the hardware and software cost of the desktops in most businesses. Businesses can save a lot of money on desktop maintenance by replacing Windows desktops/laptops with Chromebooks for those who do not need high end graphical desktops or who do not work out of the office most of the time, and use virtual Windows desktops running on servers accessed through their Chromebooks for those people who need Windows applications. Running applications and virtual desktops on servers makes management much easier to automate and therefore a lot cheaper.
Actually, it's very reasonable to compare the two. I think what you're missing is the fact that Windows and ChromeOS offer two different SOLUTIONS. I suppose next you'll tell me that comparing OSX to Win7 is wrong because zomg they have different focuses.
Comparing two different solutions for single usage scenario is perfectly valid. Nobody's going to complain about someone comparing a sedan with a sports car when they're trying to evaluate the relative value.
It does have to be compared to something. Even the Air, by your argument, is not a similar enough product to give Google a fair comparison.
We don't have to compare the Chromebook to the Air or anything so extravagant. Instead we can compare it to the netbook. After all, most of the hardware is the same.
Compared to a netbook, this Chromebook offers worse battery life, far less functionality, and so-so build quality. All at a price that's at best on par with a netbook.
Even this Acer, at $349.99, isn't competitive. The $429.99 Samsung Chromebook is ludicrous.
That does not mean that Chrome will go away. But if it remains, it will remain because Google is a gigantic company with billions of dollars that can be used to support it. Based on its current merits, Chrome OS and the Chromebooks are poor choices, and will need some time to mature into a compelling product.
The hardware quality is a lot better, and you are getting an SSD drive, and you are getting the best battery life available on any laptop device bar none, so you can't compare it with a typical high end netbook but apart from that, yes Samsung's price has scope for downward revision. I doubt if price is the reason people would buy a Chromebook instead of a netbook though - they may look similar and may usr similar hardware, but they are just too different in every other way.
Google fanboy much?
You give Google every allowance, while dismissing Microsoft out of hand. I understand ChromeOS is new, but that doesn't meant it gets a handicap bonus. If you're going to play with the big boys, you gotta play.
If ChromeOS is truly an alternative to a traditional OS, it should provide relevant functionality at a minimum. However, it fails to do that, as detailed in the review. Lots of functions aren't there out of the box and installing them can be difficult. How does that "just work"? Also, one USB port is unforgivable. Two is absolutely mandatory -- mouse and thumbdrive or external HDD. The battery life is on par with other netbooks running a full OS.
It's an alternative, sure, but if it wants to be a successful alternative, it needs to replace the relevant functionality AND do it better.
If you need something portable, it looks like a tablet or smartphone is still a better option. Potential for ChromeOS is there, but that doesn't make it an appropriate solution right now.
Agree mostly. I just ordered my ac700 . But I would appreciate if Dell can make chromebook the way we, in US, layout our keyboard. The problem of letting a Taiwanese person layout the keyboard is that they never had to write much and edit all day. I will not be surprised if the person that layout the keyboard had ever need to key in Ctrl-Shift-6. I am a CCIE, and Cisco's equipment use Ctrl-Alt-6 as escape key. That layout is not done by someone with computer science background and uses escape keys a lot. If you are an ultra geek, you need large Ctrl key, not large arrow keys. I have even seen another Taiwanese netbook that skipped the right Ctrl key.
I fail to see why Google couldn't have marketed Chromebook using Ubuntu (or other Linux) that just happen to start Chrome browser instead of desktop.
For intended "basic" user, those who are only interested in access to web, the browser would have been all they used/saw. However, having access to Linux underneath would have provided flexibility and fill holes that are part-and-parcel of being reliant only on Web.
This would change the Chromebook concept completely. Linux is a fat client like Windows 7, and although more stable than Windows, is still high a high maintenance OS.
Chromebooks run Chrome OS and is conceptually a zero maintenance thin client OS.
I would like to see a 15" ChromeBook. My netbook is a good PC but the screen just isn't big enough. I never got used to it.
There are lots of low end 15" laptops on the market so it can't be that much of risk realising one.
The problem I see with cloud in some ways we give up control of our content.Not digging the idea. Kinda like outsourcing. Not for me!
I kept the Acer in mind because I kept seeing, now and then, their tablet with a stylus. The screen flipped and laid down flat on the keyboard and the laptop became a sketchpad. Pity the new google Cromia doesn't allow for scribbled notes or artists.
Ola galera boa tarde, gostaria de saber se e possivel instalar o windows 7 no chromebook acer ac700?
I wish to know whether Chromebooks support Reticence net connect in India in Kerala state with dongle for accessing the Internet as we do not have WiFi in the place of work Dr.T.V.Rao Professor of Microbiology
No matter if some one searches for his essential thing, so he/she needs to be available that in detail, thus that thing is
maintained over here.
Acer is one of the best company in the computer technology. You can use the acer technology without the heat and connectivity issue. You will find that the battery life and portability is the efficient thing. You can hold the time for rushe ssays and take the service from this area.

FLAVIA CAESARIENSISFLAVIA CAESARIENSIS mentioned in the Notitia as being a division of Britain under the superintendence of a praeses; the notice being as follows:-- Sub dispositions viri spectabilis, vicarii Britanniarum. Consulares Maximae Caesariensis;
Britanniae Primae;
Britanniae Secundae;
Flaviae Caesariensis.
The other notice (for there are only two) is in Rufus Festus (Breviarium, 100.3): "Sunt in Gallia cum Aquitania et Britanniis decem et octo provinciae . . . in Britannia, Maxima Caesariensis, Flavia, Britannia Prima, Britannia Secunda." In the Map of the Monumenta Britannica, the province of Flavia Caesariensis is bounded by the (a) Thames, (b) Wales, (c) the Mersey, Don, and Humber, (d) the German Ocean; so that it comprises the midland and eastern counties and Lincolnshire. The authority for these lines of demarcation is unsatisfactory. It is only probable, first, that the name was taken from the conquests made by Flavius Vespasianus; and secondly, that the area thus named was as aforesaid. [R.G.L]

Re: One more request
Hi again,
If I do a search from the command-line by type '/' and my regular expression, the cursor is positioned to the location of the first occurrence found. Nice! If I then press 'ESC' to quit the search, though, the cursor returns the location it occupied before the search. Could you create a viEmu preference that we can use to choose whether 'ESC' returns the previous location or stays at the latest occurrence? In almost any vi editor I have used in the past, ESC usually stays at the last occurrence and that is my preferred behaviour.
Thank you,

Click to viewThe little-person James Bond movie, For Y'ur Height Only, has plenty of flaws — actually, the movie is pretty much 90 minutes of non-stop flaw — but it does have this awesome jetpack scene. Weng, otherwise known as Agent 00, uses the jetpack to zoom over to the hidden island of Mr. Giant, which involves climbing a very small hill. It's a good thing the actual James Bond jetpack moment, in Thunderball, lowered the bar to the point where this looks pretty good by comparison.
In addition to fantastic dialog (Weng: "Shall we get it on?" Irma: "Yes, my darling, bare your bod!") the movie features some truly epic character acting, as you'll see from our second clip, of a conversation between the evil Mr. Giant and his captured scientist, Dr. Von Koehler, who refuses to hand over the N-bomb.

The Police Log is a digest of reports filed by the Warwick Police.
A Providence woman was charged with stealing $933.10 worth of merchandise from the Target store in the Warwick Mall on May 29. Officer William Castaldi reported that security at the store told him they watched the woman on closed circuit television as she made three trips around the store, loading up with electronics, clothing and home goods before she started walking back and forth between the door and the service department before finally walking out of the store without paying for the goods. She was led back into the store and held for police. Dana M. McKinnon, 18, of 99 Rugby St. was charged with shoplifting and later released from headquarters with a summons for District Court.
Officer Eric Lima reported arresting a Warwick man at Macy's in the Warwick Mall on May 29 after loss prevention at the store told him they saw him select two pairs of shorts and six tank tops and then went into the fitting room with the goods. They said he emerged with only the shorts and a visibly fuller shopping bag. They told Lima they inspected the fitting room and found two shirts and a pair of khakis and several empty hangers. They said he returned to the fitting room with more items and came out again. They said they looked in the fitting room again and saw the khakis were missing. They said he then made a purchase and left the store and was stopped outside. They said they recovered four tanks tops and the pair of khakis from Benjamin H. Lippitt, 19, of 318 Brookline Dr., that were not paid for. Lippitt was charged with stealing $104.49 worth of merchandise. Lima said he took Lippitt to headquarters where he learned he had been arrested previously and was out on bail. He was held for the bail commissioner and later released on $1,000 surety bail.
On May 28, loss prevention at the JC Penney store in the Warwick Mall told Officer Gary Driscoll they saw Imaobong Ikpe, 28, of 60 Joseph St. in Providence take three tops and a blouse and conceal them before leaving the store without paying for them. She was later released with a summons for District Court.
Daniel L. Campos, 52, of 344 Washington St. in Providence was charged with felony shoplifting at Macy's in the Warwick Mall on May 27 after Officer Gary Driscoll took custody of him after two loss prevention officers from the Warwick Mall caught up with him in the backyard of a house at the corner of Greenwich Avenue and Route 5. Driscoll said he put handcuffs on Campos and then frisked him for weapons and contraband before putting him in the back seat of his cruiser. A loss prevention agent from Macy's said Campos had stolen expensive sunglasses from Macy's and the Sunglass Hut. She said she saw Campos select about six pairs of Oakley sunglasses worth a total of $850 and conceal them in a cloth shopping bag. The manager of the Sunglass Hut told Driscoll three pairs of Coach and two pairs of Prada sunglasses worth $1,139 were taken from the hut, along with his own pair of Prada prescription glasses that cost $850. Macy's loss prevention said they chased Campos after he ran when they attempted to detain him in the mall. She said they were detaining him in the yard when Driscoll arrived. Driscoll said a check of Campos' BCI record revealed three prior convictions for felony shoplifting and two priors for felony receiving stolen goods. He was charged as a habitual offender and a probation violator. He was assessed $5,000 surety bail on the latest charge and then remanded to the ACI.
Officer Gary Driscoll reported he was on patrol around 1:45 p.m. on May 26 when he got a call about a larceny in progress on Graystone Street. The reporting party told dispatch there was a truck to the rear of the Droitcour Company being loaded with scrap metal without the permission of the owners. Driscoll said he pulled up behind the building and saw two men beside the truck. He said the younger of the two men fled toward the power lines behind the building near Service Road and the older man started to flee and then hesitated and stopped. Driscoll said he called in for backup and arrested the older man. The caller told police he was checking out the property after hours because there had been a number of thefts of scrap from them recently and came upon the men in the process. Paulo B. Travassos, 46, of 103 Sand Pond Rd. in Warwick was taken to headquarters where he would not tell Driscoll the last name of his accomplice. Driscoll said he asked Travassos if this was the first time he had taken scrap from that property and he said it was the first and only time. Driscoll said he then informed Travassos that the owner already told police he had video of the prior thefts and that he would face further charges if it turned out to be him on the video, he would be arrested and charged again. Driscoll said he also learned that Travassos was out on bail for a prior felony larceny charge from March and he was later remanded to the ACI as a bail violator, with an additional $5,000 surety bail assessed for the latest charge.
Office Matthew Moretti reported he was dispatched to the area of Centerville and Toll Gate Roads for a possible drunk driver around 6:15 p.m. on May 22. Moretti said he located the vehicle near Apponaug Four Corners and saw it weave in and out of lanes twice before he pulled it over near Prospect Street and Post Road. He said the driver appeared to be intoxicated and smelled of alcohol. He said the driver told him he had one shot and two beers to drink earlier. He said he had the driver get out of his car for a field sobriety test and saw he was unsteady on his feet and failed the test. He said he then asked the driver to take a preliminary breath test on the portable analyzer and he replied that he had two shots of vodka and three beers and probably shouldn't. He said he arrested the driver and the driver asked him if there was something they could do to help him out. "Paul Wisnieski stated to me …'I can give your wife a diamond.' I told Paul Wisnieski that he was being transported to HQ, and there was nothing that would change that."
Moretti said Wisnieski refused a breath test at headquarters and was charged with DUI, second offense; refusal, second offense; laned roadway violations; and presence of alcohol, for the open bottle of vodka found in Wisnieski's vehicle.
Moretti said Wisnieski was about to be released to a sober friend when he asked Moretti if they found the bottle of vodka in his vehicle and if it was being held as evidence. Moretti said he told him, yes, they found it and, yes, it was being held as evidence and Wisnieski's response was, "[Expletive], that was my last bottle."
