Just ordered 2 McSnowies. Just the Rebel, some AOTC wave and a few R2-B1s and I'll be pretty set for the year.
Wave 7 now up on HTS, including McSolo.
[FONT=Arial Narrow]
Not sure if it's the same for the whole wave, but McSolo and the Ewoks are limited to 1 each.
But there's that handy free shipping/20%-off code (two, really!) so place a couple orders to get what you want. I just got 2 each of McSolo & the Ewoks. Hadn't seen the Ewoks in stores yet, and extra McSolos are great! So I'll have 3 boxes of 2 figures each coming in the next few weeks.
Maybe the AOTC wave will pop up again, or the repaints, so I can finish off everything today
FIGRIN: I snaggle-toothed the Ewoks with free shipping. So I won't need them now, as probably no one here will with this HTS opportunity if they log on and check the forums while they're still in stock.
Darn thing doesn't have the last remaining figures I need:
4 Training Clones with snap-on armor
1 Jango from his apartment on Kamino
2 red Naboo trooper guys
And if they ever get the Leia Starkillers in before Figrin sends me the 2 he got me, I'll be able to avoid shipping and get a discount. But it looks like Waves 6 & 7 are going up. I don't know if we'll see more of Wave 5, 7.5, or Wave 8.
BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
I hope 7.5 and 8 go up soon. Still need some of those figs.

Was all of 7.5 up? I only see the Underarm Stain Trooper.

My 10 month old pup has been running the full Mini-T now for about 6 days without any cast refusals or mess ups, which I am happy with! But she has also started to lose drive when being sent from the side heel postion to the back pile. I am not getting any no-go's, just her momentum, and drive has went down the last few days.
I realize this is a product of the boring yard work, and can still get her motivated by forcing to pile, and a few fun bumpers, and praise will perk her up for a few sends too. BUT I have backed off the pressure mainly due to me not needing to add it for anything, due to her complining to all her casts, and whistle sits.
With her running Mini-T well for several days now, Should I move on to a Single-T or Double-T in a diffrent location to hopefully spark her drive and intrest back up ?
I have been running Marks in the morning, with birds being in the mix atleast 2 days a week, and running T-Work in the afternoons in the back yard!
Is it time to move on ??? I feel that it is, and have recevied advice already to move on ! Just looking for other opinions.
Don't want to rush it, But want to keep her moving along, and learning.

Exhibition examines the magnitude of loss and recovery
Jan. 4-Feb. 13, 2014 · Bernstein Gallery
Posted January 7, 2014; 12:05 p.m.
"R&R(…&R)," an exhibition by Susanne Slavic, the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Art at Carnegie Mellon University, is on view through Feb. 13 in the Bernstein Gallery, Robertson Hall. The exhibition examines the magnitude of loss and recovery through "found" photographs on the Internet depicting war-torn regions, to which Slavic has added culturally specific "restorative" elements. For example, in "Stretch," Islamic angels instead of mechanics tend to a charred car.

|Health specialist Lori Shemek (who also knows a thing or two about dieting) has shared some foods beyond the orange that will help keep your immune system at its strongest and the flu away.
Just like with carrots, pumpkins get their orange color from beta-carotene, which is a great source of vitamin A, says Shemek. A good supply of vitamin A helps with cellular communication within your immune system, making sure it's alert and ready for when the flu virus strikes.

| While most of us already know that oranges are a great way to fight off colds and the flu, Shemek tells us that other citrus fruits should not be overlooked as well. The more vitamin C the better, she says, because it helps with the body's production of white blood cells to help prevent infection.
This light and healthy Grapefruit, Fennel, and Feta Salad is an easy and delicious way to get your dose of Vitamin C.

| Tomatoes contain an antioxidant called lycopene, which aids the body's natural defenses against harmful free radicals, says Shemek. And, even better for us, cooking tomatoes is the best way to get the most lycopene out of them.
This Slow-Roasted Tomatoes recipe is perfect to make and have on hand whenever you're looking for a dose of lycopene.

| Along with other types of protein, dark turkey meat is the best type you can consume because it contains more health-boosting vitamins and minerals than any other cut. As turkey is a good source of zinc and selenium, which boost your body's defense system and increase production of white blood cells, eating the dark meat will ensure you get the most of these virus-fighting vitamins.
The turkey legs in this Red Wine Roasted Turkey Legs recipe have the perfect crispy skin from roasting, and did you know red wine is considered an antioxidant too?

| Like all cold-water fish, wild salmon is a great source of omega-3 fats, says Shemek. These are highly effective with the immune system because they increase the activity of macrophages — white blood cells that annihilate bacteria in your body.

| Kefir, or fermented milk, helps create healthy gut microbes in your body, which make up a large part of your body's defense system. "In fact, your digestive system is 80 percent of your immune system," says Shemek, so the consumption of kefir not only improves immune-cell function but builds a fortress in your intestinal tract against bugs.

Thread: Ever used one of these filters?
Yes, I have used an air driven hang on tank exterior filter.
In the days that unit was in service it was powered by an air pump that supplied air to the riser tube which created a solid lift column of water driven by the air trying to displace past it. The units air supply needed an accurate air valve which could be calibrated to make the lifting of the water efficient.
You would use layers of filter floss and layers of chunk coal or carbon to filter the water and remove solids and use the coal to absorb odors and some chemicals.
To start the unit you would fill it full of water with a cup and turn on the air.
The secret to using this unit was in how you serviced it. If you tossed all of the filter floss and carbon you killed the biological that was in it. The trick was to wash lightly in tank water in a container 50% of the floss and reuse it.
It would then reseed the bio and life would be great.
With the new tech stuff such as better carbon, zeolites and purse type bags for media which can be layered in efficiently you can actually get excellent performance from a little unit such as this. These are very low maintenance, inexpensive, the bags and media can be designed to be inexpensive and they are cheap to operate.
I'd like to have about 75 of those.
You know at least those filters where built solid. You know if you think about it the principal on the Eheim Classic is the same when it comes to no baskets yes a much updated motor but the way you load it is similiar.
I was joking on a forum when they where talking about the old filters the Surpreme which ran off a Dodge 225 Slant six and was almost the size of the tank. And air pumps that ran forever but you could hear them two houses up the road. I wish I could remember the model where you used your hand you work to get the siphon started then you would loose the siphon and would have to mess with it to get it started again. I ran across a website that had the patterns listed for these old filters I will try to look it up?
I know this is an extremely old thread but I had come across it while researching air powered external filters....
Back around 1970 I recall my dad using the old siphon tube style that's been mentioned.
I bought a couple of these longlifes, from- judging from the photo at the start of the thread- the same merchant the OP was corresponding with.
They were made in the USA by Hartz Mountain, they were new enough to have UPCs on the boxes so that places these particular examples no earlier than middle to late 70s. Unfortunately there were no copyright dates or patent numbers to go by.
I'm using one in a tank along with a corner filter... I have a fascination with air powered filtration, obviously. It's fun to watch in operation, if you like that kinda thing.
According to the packaging it should get up to 40gph... they may be a little generous with that but it actually does better than I expected. As Indian Woods posted it could probably be fine tuned with an air valve for the most efficiency- I just have mine wide open but I actually think it could do a little better with the air turned down a tiny bit, I don't have a spare right now to see but I noticed when I cut the power and tested it with my little bait bucket battery air pump it seemed to do as well or better than the main air pump (which is one side of a dual outlet Walmart job). Meh.
Anyway I've had fun playing with it, I think it's pretty neat.

Havee fun with it. I'm personally glad we've moved on since then to affordable internal cartridge filters.My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
Oh it's not as convenient. Usually I'm all about the convenience but rockin' it old skool this time around, for a while, anyway.

| We've rounded up our favorite summer hairstyles—that will work in any weather—and we're giving you the how-to firsthand from the star stylists that created the looks!
Scarlett Johansson's Halo Braid When going for a thick braid like Scarlett Johansson's, keep the direction of the plait in mind, and be sure to use a mousse beforehand to give the style extra hold. "The braid is shaped on the outside—it's important to know where to start so you'll know where to finish," said her hairstylist Alain Pichon. "On Scarlett, I started behind her right ear and worked down across the nape of her neck so the front would be thicker, and so I could seamlessly tuck the rest of the length into her style."

| Short crops like Ginnifer Goodwin's are ideal for staying cool in the summer heat. After blow-drying, run a styling wax or thick molding mud through random pieces of hair to bring out the texture and create light separation, particularly in the bangs, to keep the style from appearing too blunt.

| The trick to a perfect bun like Lauren Conrad's? A foam hair insert like the one from ASOS ($9; asos.com). They take the guesswork out of forming an ample updo—all you have to do is roll them into place. Conrad's hairstylist Kristin Ess split her hair into three sections, then rolled a straight-line hair foundation into the back to create her bun. "Drape the two side sections over your bun, and if you need to, wrap them around a curling iron first so they blend seamlessly," Ess said. And don't skimp on the bobby pins; since the foundation adds weight to the style, use more hair pins for extra support.

| For a style that requires no heat tools at all, wear your hair in its natural texture like Solange Knowles. Incorporate a hydrating shampoo and deep conditioner like the Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla Hair Smoothie ($20; carolsdaughter.com) into your routine to keep the summer elements from drying out your strands, and avoid putting your hair into styles that pull on it to keep breakage to a minimum. "Before I shampoo, I comb out my hair with a wide-tooth comb," Knowles told InStyle. "The wider the teeth, the less strain and breakage you're going to have."

| Loose, tousled waves like Emmanuelle Chriqui's are a summer essential. Humidity actually works with the style to create a carefree feel—meaning hairspray is optional. Allow your hair to air-dry to bring out your natural waves, then loosely wrap sections around a medium-barrel curling iron. Rake your fingers through the ringlets after they have cooled to rough up the texture.

| Charlize Theron gave the side pony a twist by rolling it up across the back, and keeping it low. "This is a very minimalist look that is still appropriate for events," said her hairstylist Enzo Angileri. "I wanted to eject some glamour into the look, but wanted to keep it simple as well." Angileri started on one side of the star's head, twisting her strands upward and working from the left to the right. After a ponytail was created, he secured the style with bobby pins and finished with a spritz of Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine ($26;moroccanoil.com for locations). "I didn't use hairspray because I wanted the look to be completely natural and loose," he added.

| Extra volume is an easy way to add a Brigitte Bardot-esque flair to the traditional ponytail. For a style like Eva Longoria's, start with clean, blown-out hair, and tease your top layer at the crown using a fine-tooth comb. Sweep a layer of un-teased hair over to cover the backcombing, then fasten into a high ponytail.

| We love the high-fashion feel created by Gwyneth Paltrow's ultra-smooth bun, and how her perfect center part makes the style graphic. A little shine serum goes a long way when recreating this look, so smooth a dime-sized drop through before securing the style. While wispy pulled-out layers work with other summer styles, Paltrow's look is all about the sleek texture, so keep a flyaway tamer on hand to maintain the streamlined appearance.

| Although Woodley's style sits high on her head, it's a far cry from a stiff cheerleader ponytail. "We decided that a high ponytail would be appropriate as we didn't want to overdo it," said her hairstylist Jamal Hammadi. "She's such a beautiful young woman, and I wanted to celebrate that." Hammadi applied a shine serum before blowing out hair, then sprayed on the Hamadi Shea Spray ($19; hamadibeauty.com) to add extra shine. After a quick pass with a straightening iron, he gathered her strands into a high ponytail, keeping her center part to maintain a modern look.

| Don't stress over salt-soaked hair. Try Mary-Kate Olsen's textured 'do if you hit the shore, but don't have time to re-style. Olsen's hairstylist Charley Brown separated her hair into four sections, and after adding texturizer and sea salt spray, he shook out her strands and twisted each section into a piecey bun. "Rub the silhouette of the hairline to bring out the baby hairs and intentional flyaways," Brown said. "This gives the style a romantic, undone feel."

| Instead of fighting the elements, Jennifer Lopez worked with them and wore her hair in a curly half-updo. This style is ideal for those humid days where your strands just can't be tamed. Take the two top sections of your hair and pin them back with bobby pins, but allow tendrils and flyaways to frame your face. The perfectly disheveled ringlets are part of the appeal.

| "The low deep side part gives it a sexy look," said hairstylist Lona Vigi who created Cameron Diaz's tousled bob. "Blow dry only the bangs, pulling them forward first, then overextending to the other side to create the sweep." To create the windblown texture, Vigi added clips to Diaz's damp hair and let it air-dry for the most organic texture.

Gomez injured in collision with wall
Leaves game vs. Cincinnati
MILWAUKEE - Brewers All-Star center fielder Carlos Gomez was injured while making a leaping catch at the center field wall and was removed from the game against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday night.
Gomez robbed Brandon Phillips of a likely extra-base hit, and crashed awkwardly to the ground with his right knee bent under his body and his right hip hitting the base of the wall in the fourth inning.
He immediately grabbed his right rear hip area. He jogged lightly while being watched by trainers but was replaced by Logan Schafer and walked slowly off the field.
Gomez is batting .288 with 18 home runs and 55 RBI in 114 games. He was selected to his first All-Star game this season.

And the genius behind this clever interplay? Day & Age was helmed by Stuart Price, a British producer and electronic musician famous for producing Madonna's megahit 2005 album Confessions on a Dancefloor, as well as for his own take on French house under the moniker Les Rythmes Digitales. For the Killers, Price "has become a fifth member of the band," says drummer Ronnie Vannucci, speaking to me during a rare respite from rehearsals for their impending tour (which hits Agganis Arena on Monday). "He really understands us, he has the same sensitivities as us, similar sensibilities. And he definitely added an interesting dance feel on some songs, especially 'Human.' When [Killers vocalist] Brandon [Flowers] came up with that, it was almost like a little folk song, and Stuart just kind of helped with giving it a different feel, a modern twist — and he gave it a strong dance influence. He took this simple folk song and took it in this very obvious dance direction and brought out this almost timeless-sounding feel. It's this really strange dichotomy."
The Killers have never been strangers to the dance floor, having blown up out of their home town of Las Vegas when two singles from their 2004 debut, Hot Fuss ("Mr. Brightside" and "Somebody Told Me"), went Top 10 and became massive international hits — in large part because of their rock-concert/dance-floor compatibility. With Day & Age, and the choice of Price as the fifth Killer steering them in a groove-shaking direction, they seem to be zagging from the zig of 2006's sophomore effort, Sam's Town, which saw them eschew dance-floor mayhem for a more earnest vibe full of Southwestern desert mythology — as well as flamboyant show tunes like the title track and "This River Is Wild." "With Sam's Town," Vannucci explains, "the songs we were coming out with were much more introspective and fictional than what we were bringing across before in the lyrics. But you know, we spent two years out on the road, seeing the world, and we grew up! After you're gone for a long time and you come back home, it kind of makes a man out of you. You see how different you are, and you realize how different the place you come from is."

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted in 1948, articulates the idea that it is wrong to exclude any member of the human species from the circle of moral concern. This enlightened vision was a tremendous advance over earlier, more restricted views about who matters morally; yet it still excludes a far larger number of beings who can both enjoy life and suffer: nonhuman animals. They, or at least those capable of feeling pain, which at a minimum includes all vertebrates, are also entitled to concern. Pain is pain, irrespective of the species of the being that experiences it.

Acoustic trauma is injury to the hearing mechanisms in the inner ear due to very loud noise.
Injury - inner ear; Trauma - inner ear; Ear injury
Acoustic trauma is a common cause of sensory hearing loss. Damage to the hearing mechanisms within the inner ear may be caused by:
The health care provider will usually suspect acoustic trauma if hearing loss occurs after noise exposure. Audiometry may determine how much hearing has been lost.
The hearing loss may not be treatable. The goal of treatment is to protect the ear from further damage. Eardrum repair may be needed.
A hearing aid may help you communicate. You can learn coping skills, such as lip reading.
Hearing loss may be permanent in the affected ear. Ear protection may prevent the hearing loss from getting worse.
Progressive hearing loss is the main complication of acoustic trauma.
Tinnitus (ear ringing) can also occur.

Jadwin Gym, or more formally the "L. Stockwell Jadwin '28 Gymnasium," is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. It hosted its first athletic event on Jan. 25, 1969, and has been the site of many other activities. The building is named for Leander Stockwell Jadwin, who graduated in 1928 after competing as a hurdler.

Jadwin Gym -- built 40 years ago for basketball and more
Posted January 28, 2009; 04:11 p.m.
Jadwin Gymnasium celebrates its 40th anniversary this year. The building, which is home to eight varsity teams, hosted its first athletic event, a men's basketball game against the University of Pennsylvania, on Jan. 25, 1969. Princeton defeated Penn 74-62.
Jadwin is home to Princeton men's and women's basketball, men's and women's indoor track and field, men's and women's squash, and men's and women's fencing. It also has hosted many other events, including a one-man show by comedian Eddie Murphy, a speech by former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and an exhibition match with the trailblazing African American tennis star Arthur Ashe.
Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice delivered the keynote address to open a year of celebrations marking the 75th anniversary of the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Jadwin Gym on Sept. 30, 2005. (Photos: Princeton Office of Communications/John Jameson)
Jadwin is the fifth home for men's basketball. The team played in Bonner-Marquand Gymnasium (where Campbell Hall now stands) from 1900 to 1902; in University Gym from 1903 until a fire destroyed the building in 1944; in Baker Rink from 1944 until Dillon Gymnasium opened in 1947; and in Dillon from 1947 until Jadwin's construction.
The game floor will be named for Pete Carril, who coached men's basketball for 29 years, in a ceremony on Saturday, Feb. 21. (Photo: Courtesy of Princeton Athletic Communications)
On Saturday, Feb. 21, the game floor at Jadwin will be named "Carril Court" in honor of Pete Carril, the Hall-of-Fame men's basketball coach who won 514 games and 13 Ivy League championships in his 29 years at Princeton. The ceremony will take place during the Princeton vs. Dartmouth game, which begins at 6 p.m. Carril coached the Tigers from the 1967-68 season until the 1995-96 season.
In honor of Jadwin's 40th anniversary, Princeton's Department of Athletics has compiled a group of facts about the building into "The Top 40 Moments in Jadwin Gym History." Here are some highlights:
• On Nov. 13, 1971, the Beach Boys played the first concert at Jadwin. Among the songs the group played were "Good Vibrations," "Surfin' U.S.A." and "California Girls." Other performers who have given shows at Jadwin include Bruce Springsteen and the group Boston.
• On Oct. 7, 1987, shortly before the start of basketball practice, a circus came to Jadwin Gym. The weight of the elephants damaged the floor and the beams underneath, forcing a scramble to fix the problem in time for the basketball season.

• On Feb. 23, 1990, Sandi Bittler (right) set an Ivy League basketball record that still stands by making 10 three-point shots in a game against Dartmouth.

• On Jan. 13, 2006, women's basketball star Meagan Cowher (left) scored 35 points against Cornell University, one night after scoring 31 points against Columbia University, giving her the highest Ivy League weekend point total by a men's or women's player in Jadwin history.
• On Feb. 24, 2008, Princeton defeated Penn 6-3 after dropping two of the first three matches to win the women's national squash championship for the second straight year. The win gave Princeton a national champion team or individual for the 22nd straight year.
• On Oct. 24, 2008, Princeton retired the No. 42 across all sports in honor of football's Dick Kazmaier and basketball's Bill Bradley, arguably two of the greatest athletes in school history, in a ceremony in Jadwin Gym. Kazmaier, a 1952 alumnus, won the 1951 Heisman Trophy for the nation's top collegiate football player. Bradley was awarded the Sullivan Award as the outstanding U.S. amateur athlete in 1965, the year he graduated.
Kazmaier (left) turned down an opportunity to play professional football and instead attended Harvard Business School. He spent three years as a Naval officer and then embarked on a long career in business and philanthropy. Bradley (right) delayed his NBA career to study at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. He returned to become an Air Force reserve officer, a member of two NBA championship teams with the New York Knicks and a three-term U.S. senator from New Jersey.

Obama's targeted drone strikes--even on Americans--aren't illegal, writes Jack Goldsmith for Foreign Policy. In fact, he writes, there's a solid legal foundation and a number of checks and balances upholding his right to take out terrorists.
Instead of convincing critics, Attorney General Holder's defense of the Obama administration's targeted killing policy earlier this month seems to have emboldened them. "The idea that the executive branch can be judge, jury, and executioner … totally undoes the system of checks and balances," charged American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Executive Director Anthony Romero after Holder's talk at Northwestern University's law school. Romero and others have been especially scathing about the lawlessness of last fall's drone killing in Yemen of U.S. citizen and al Qaeda affiliate leader Anwar al-Awlaki.
In this new age of drone warfare, probing the constitutional legitimacy of targeted killings has never been more vital. The Obama administration has carried out well over 200 drone strikes in its first three years, and the practice promises to ramp up even more in the next few years as the United States decreases its footprint in Afghanistan and relies even more heavily on special operations and covert actions centered around the use of drones. There are contested legal issues surrounding drone strikes, and -- in contrast to issues like military detention and military commissions -- courts have not pushed back against the presidency on this issue. But judicial review is not the only constitutional check on the presidency, especially during war. Awlaki's killing and others like it have solid legal support and are embedded in an unprecedentedly robust system of legal and political accountability that includes courts but also includes other institutions and actors as well.
When the Obama administration made the decision to kill Awlaki, it did not rely on the president's constitutional authority as commander in chief. Rather, it relied on authority that Congress gave it, and on guidance from the courts. In September 2001, Congress authorized the president "to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines" were responsible for 9/11. Whatever else the term "force" may mean, it clearly includes authorization from Congress to kill enemy soldiers who fall within the statute. Unlike some prior authorizations of force in American history, the 2001 authorization contains no geographical limitation. Moreover, the Supreme Court, in the detention context, has ruled that the "force" authorized by Congress in the 2001 law could be applied against a U.S. citizen. Lower courts have interpreted the same law to include within its scope co-belligerent enemy forces "associated" with al Qaeda who are "engaged in hostilities against the United States."

Since its beginning, Magis has crossed boundaries through their partnerships with leading designers and novel twists on contemporary furniture design. Founded in 1976, Italian designer Eugenio Perazza began the first steps towards building an international design laboratory. In Latin, Magis means "more than" and that is exactly what Magis delivers while focusing on using less materials and energy. Always perched on the cutting edge, Perazza was named as "one of ten who will change the way we live."
In 1984, Magis experienced enormous success with their product Step. This ladder was snubbed upon initial release because it was not an item considered "worthy" of the furniture store circuit. However, the product met with tremendous success, especially in furniture stores, and Magis' fire was lit.
In 2004, Magis introduced their venture into the realm of children. Inspired by his granddaughter's propensity for drawing and a lack of appropriate children's desks, Eugenio Perazza conceived the Me Too Collection. He began by searching out designers who could think like a child and all the products in the collection earned Perazza's granddaugter's approval before going into production. The Me Too Collection features bright and innovative pieces that stimulate and engage children's perceptions. Me Too is about: "I'm here too and I deserve my place in the world."
By embracing the creativity of leading global designers and incorporating leading technology into the mass production of unique objects and furniture, Magis has garnered many awards and their Bottle project has earned a place in the permanent collections of many contemporary art museums. Offering product choices that range from indoor, outdoor and children's rooms, Magis changes the way we live.

While acting as a design consultant to major Japanese companies, he also held design workshops - the without thought workshops - with young designers. During the first workshop, he came up with the design for the wall-mounted CD player, selected by MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in New York for its permanent collection in 2004. As of 2005, he began concurrently acting as a professor at Musashino Art University, a visiting professor at Tama Art University and a special lecturer of interdisciplinary information studies at Tokyo University Graduate School.

Review Details
Transit 2 Jacket
- Product Review (submitted on January 20, 2010):
I have had the Transit Suit a short time and have not ridden in the rain, so cannot comment on how it works in rain.
The pants are comfortable and I like the ease of putting on and taking off boots with the long zippers.
The jacket is the stiffest and least comfortable of five I have owned. It is hot and the collar chafes, but the cuffs are the worst. Even after clamping them as suggested they are so huge that I have to struggle to get my gauntlets over them, the zippers won't stay zipped and the bunched up leather hurt my wrists. I'll probably have to get them altered to fit.
I hope the jacket loosens up with use, but there is no hope for the cuffs.

Great Value! 5/14/2015
Product working better than expected. Definitely exceeding my expectations! Thank you!
Faulty 5/6/2015Katy from Boston, MA
While the product looked like it was in good condition and would receive/send signals, it was never able to connect to the internet.
Refurbished Motorola modem 5/5/2015
Item arrived as described with power supply and ethernet cable. Seems to be working fine; haven't had it very long...hope it continues to operate properly and well. Bought modem to stop paying monthly fee for modem provided by ISP.
Keep up the belief. 5/1/2015S A P C from San Diego, CA
Works. No issue seen.
Not working 8/28/2013
The modem doesn't function at all! My friend's modem with the same model works perfectly fine with my cable.
A must for cable internet users 2/7/2009Mike from Sugar Land, Texas
I bought this to replace my ISP supplied modem which was poorly made (cheap), slow and often lost connectivity. The Motorola SB5101 made my webpages load at lightening speed and I have not dropped a connection yet. This is by far better than anything the ISP has provided and will save me $3 per month on modem rental fees to boot! Highly recommended.
Great Product 8/16/2008Ken Vidrine from Lafayette, LA
Plug and play, what more can you ask for, very fast modem.
Good Product 8/12/2008
I used this modem to replace an older Motorola modem. Easy to install but I did have to call my ISP to reset. That was a pain, but everything works well now.
Great Modem 7/28/2008K.C. from Miami, FL
I've had this modem for about a week now and I'm very pleased with it. I switched from AT&T (formerly Bellsouth) to Comcast and my connection is much faster. I'm getting close to 6Mb/s download speed and 1.2 Mb/s upload speed.
Good value 7/7/2008Sai N from Monmouth Junction, NJ
I just bought this modem because it was on the approved list for Comcast. It works flawlessly. The technician came in , connected the modem and it has been working perfectly ever since. I am not certain about longevity - but it is certainly better than leasing (renting) a modem from Comcast.
Works great 6/26/2008teela95 from Philadelphia, PA
I change from SB5100 to SB5101 and the speed doubled for download and upload. I could not believed that it would make that much different. I have Comcast as my internet provider and I had to call them to setup the SB5101. It took about 1 hour, but most of that time was waiting. I very happy with this product
Great Value 6/8/2008
This Motorola Surfboard modem works great. Very easy set up. Sure beats renting from my cable company.
You will not be disappointed 6/4/2008Brian from Massachusetts
Between rental fees from the cable company and my wife's complaints about losing the Internet connection, I decided to replace the piece of junk the cable company provided with the Surfboard. Installation was easy - once I figured out that I had to turn off my wireless router first. Have never lost the connection since setting it up (about 2 weeks), and the speed is far better than the old modem. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.
Just received my Item & I am pleased 5/31/2008E.R La France from Sebring Fl.
I recently purchased a cagle modem from Buy Com.
& I am pleased with the way they reveied my order & set it
to me.
Usual high Motorola quality 5/26/2008CortxVortx from Indiana
I had to replace my previous modem due to a bad ethernet port. So I came right to Buy.com.
Of the recommended modems, the Motorola had a reduced price, while the other had a mail-in rebate. I HATE mail-in rebates, so the decision was easier.
Love the upright design, and it is very stable, even with the ethernet cable snaking over to the router. I've had it for two weeks now, with no problems.
Great Item 5/12/2008
Great performance booster, cable modem at home was 6 years old.
Did some research with ISP this was one of the cable modems on the compatible list, easy to setup and connect, just a easy phone call to ISP to register MAC address, performance is better than ever great product at a great price!
Best Cable Modem 4/7/2008Jim from St. Louis, MO
I bought one of these modems over 3 years ago on the advise from a broadband tech that when he does service calls, the modem is never the problem when it is a Motorola modem. It still does an excellent job. The modems I bought previously from the cable company went bad after 2 years. Why rent the modem from your cable company when you can buy one and it will pay for itself in 1.5 years?
Great Deal 2/26/2008allen from Wheeling, IL
The item was as described and arrived promptly. Of question is that according to Motorola, the Surfboard 5101 is new than the Surfboard 5120 yet the 5101 is $3 less expensive that the 5120 on the Buy.Com site. Explain?
have one for my other computer 2/23/2008
I know this is the correct one the cable system uses, this is the main reason I ordered this one. Cheaper than renting or buying from cable system.
Excellent Product 2/16/2008Regina B. from Independence, KY
#1 Great Modem at an excellent price and also free shipping! Researched this modem prior to purchase and it is everything it states it is! Ease of installation and excellent connectivity!
Thank you to Buy.com for their terrific prices and great selections. Anyone who does not shop here is simply wasting their money!!!!!!! I am now going to purchase speaker wire that would cost twice as much in any retail store and I still get the great quality I require.
Super Product and Service 2/13/2008
Excellent performance and ease of installation. It was extremely easy to set up. On sale at a remarkable savings so was delighted that I could find such a great deal on it. The delivery time(free shipping) was excellent also. I would recommend this product to anyone in need of a new one.
Worth replacing your old cable modem! 2/1/2008Bill from Louisville, KY
This was my first experience with BUY.COM. I bought this cable modem to replace my 6 year old shark fin modem and im very pleased with my decision. My download speed has doubled. For sure worth the money and with the free shipping I got and the great service, I will do future business with buy.com.
Good Stuff 1/23/2008
Excellent product. Used with Comcast Cable High Speed Internet. You have to call tech support to provide the MAC address, then they can reach the modem and copy the configuration file into it. Spend about 10 minutes with the technician. Don't pay the lease, get one yourself and Buy.com has the best price on the Internet.
Excellent Product 1/7/2008
The SB5101 was easy to install and works great. Certainly a recommended product!
Easy to use, but tips easily 12/31/2007
This modem is extremely easy to use, and since it is vertical it has the small footprint I was looking for. My one complaint is that it is so lightweight that it tips over easily. Any stray cable dragging across the desktop will tip it over. So far, this hasn't resulted in accidentally pushing the "Standby" button, which is located on the top, but sooner or later I'm sure it will happen.
Why rent? 12/25/2007
I have rented a cable modem for too long. The modem was set up and registered in less than 5 minutes. It appears just a good as the one it replaced and I have had no issues with it.
Great Value 12/21/2007
I got this at almost half the price of retailers. Was easy to set up and works fine so far.
gonga 12/20/2007
you can not beat this price anywhere for a top rated modem
Good price; Free shipping 11/30/2007
I bought this cable modem to replace my aging one. I thought the price was reasonable, and you can't beat the free shipping. Installing this product was a breeze, much easier than to get the cable company to register it on their network. GOOD DEAL, GOOD PRODUCT.
Slick to Install 11/30/2007Warr from Oceanside, Ca
Very simple and easy to install. Plug it in, register the MAC & Customer Serial number and it is done.
Very good product, I received it very fast from Buy.com. Thank you!
Simple to use, good value, just works! 11/29/2007
I bought this modem so I could switch from DSL to Cable internet, and found that buy.com had the best pricing.
After ordering, I received the shipment very quickly, and everything worked right out of the box without any hassles! I am not sure how this modem stacks up against other cable modems, but I have been very happy so far (we have been using it for about 1 month now).
Great Cable Modem 8/20/2007
I needed to replace rental unit and this one is much quicker. Good value, easy to use, and reliable.
Works as advertised 8/14/2007
Not sure if my download speeds have increased but I know that they haven't decreased. I especially like the fact that I don't have to send an additional $5 to Comcast for renting a modem. I figure I'll break even after a year.
Good cable modem. 8/12/2007PP from Chandler, AZ
I have been using this modem for a month. It has been working very well. I recommended buying this product 'Motorola Surfboard SB5101 Cable Modem'. I got the best price from Buy.com.
I only encountered a minor installation problem. By the time when I was trying to switch my USB cable to use the Ethernet cable. I must remove USB driver first, otherwise it won't allow me to see the modem.
Buying at Buy.com is easy and safe 8/11/2007Ben M. Susan from Boca Raton, Fl 33428
I am a computer teacher at a high school technical academy and have told many of the teachers and administrative people that if they want to purchase electronics or computer related items to definitely go to buy.com and check out the prices.
I am very saisfied with all my purchases at buy.com and have even used their Mastercard that I obtained from them.
Motorola Surfboard SB5101 Cable Modem 6/4/2007rborczak from Surprise AZ
I have used Cox Cable Broadband since it was available and purchased their cable modem. It had worked fine until recently when Cox upped their speed. After upgrading to Vista Home Premium, I started to get dropped internet connections where I received message I had to reconnect. This bacame frustrating and I contacted Cox who advised that my early cable modem was too old. I purchased the above modem from Buy.com and it corrected all my dropped connections, but more then that, it stopped all previous frozen screens and slow window changes. Terrific, and it was just a matter of reconnecting the new cable box and away we go. Oruce is great! But more important, I ordered the item on 6-20-07 at 6:28 PM and received it on 6-21-07 early afternoon. I was amazed. OK, so it was in the same city area. But you cannot beat that kind of service by Buy.com. My favorite store.
Worked fine out of the box. 5/31/2007
This modem worked fine out of the box, as soon as I cleared it's MAC address with my cable internet provider. It was an upgrade to the same brand modem I bought 5 years ago, and is a lot faster. I would highly recommend it.
Easy to use 4/18/2007
The surfboard is light, the directions are clear, and it was installed in no time at all. I liked the price, the super fast delivery, and the way it works. I am very very pleased.
motorola surf board cable modem 4/10/2007
Item arrived promptly with no defects. I would definitely recommend buy.com
Great Service 4/7/2007Mr.G from Brooklyn, NY

I found what I believe to be a rare R2D2 Episode II figure. Instead of the legs having "circle bolts", they have "star bolts" instead. I found many with the circle buy only this one with the star bolts. Has anybody else found this as well?
Also, when will the new figures like Palpitine, Jango Final, Bespin figures be available in Canada.
Lastly, I got everyone but no Mace Windu, where can I get my hands on one of those. I've got 3 Yodas, which has been a scarce find in my area (Niagara Region) however no Windus at all.

Robert J. Samuelson asks if energy independence is possible, and what it would look like politically.
Call it Richard Nixon's revenge.
Amid election-year furor over high gasoline prices, something significant has happened to America's energy outlook. We are steadily reducing our dependence on imported oil -- a long-ago Nixon goal. In 1973, he proposed being free of imports by 1980. It didn't happen, and although politicians of both parties frequently echoed Nixon's popular call for "energy independence," most experts considered it a joke.
Production from mature U.S. fields was declining, while Americans' energy thirst increased. Oil imports went from 35 percent of use in 1973 to 60 percent in 2005. As for natural gas, companies prepared to import LNG (liquefied natural gas).
No more. The LNG isn't needed; the United States is approaching self-sufficiency in gas. And in 2011, oil imports fell to 45 percent of consumption, the sixth year of decline. Behind these developments lies a new reality: America's oil and gas reserves are far larger than previously thought.
The real issue -- for the election and victor -- is how aggressively we exploit these reserves. President Obama is right about today's gasoline prices. They're set in world markets subject to upsets (for example, erratic production from Libya and Sudan) over which we have little control. But the longer term is different. By encouraging production, we can enhance our energy security and help stabilize global markets -- and prices -- through greater supply.

AXA Private Equity announced this week the opening of its first China office in the country's capital, Beijing. This continues the firm's expansion in Asia having opened its first office in Singapore in 2005.
It has since deployed USD1.3billion of capital across the region. AXA Private Equity said the Beijing office would allow it to strengthen relationships with "key private equity market players". It sees attractive partnership opportunities between Chinese and European companies, and, by leveraging its global reach and diverse European portfolio, AXA Private Equity intends to play a key role in enhancing these potential synergies.
Jenhao Han, Managing Director and Head of AXA Private Equity Asia, is to head up the office and will be supported by Won Ha, Jason Yao and Colin Wang, all of whom previously worked out of the Singapore office. Han commented that by having a China presence it would allow the firm to "further develop our relationships with our Asian counterparties", adding: "A physical presence in China will enable the team to identify synergies between European and Asian portfolios."
Dominique Senequier, CEO, AXA Private Equity, said: "Despite the ongoing economic uncertainty, we continue to look to the future with our new Beijing office. Our increasing global visibility and ability to attract new investors…ideally positions us to further capitalise on the significant opportunities for our investors and portfolio companies in China."
Hedge fund veteran Julian Robertson is to seed a new investment partnership that will focus its strategy on Asian equities reported Bloomberg this week. Tiger Pacific Capital LP will be headed up by Run Ye, Junji Takegami and Hoyon Hwang, all of whom were senior members of Tiger Asia Management LLC, Bill Hwang's New York-based hedge fund which shuttered earlier this year. It's not clear how much seed money is being allocated. Former Tiger Management portfolio managers and analysts who have gone solo to set up their own firms are referred to as "Tiger Cubs" and include the likes of Chase Coleman's Tiger Global and Viking Global Investors, one of the most successful firms established by Andreas Halvorsen. Earlier this year Adam Leitzes, who helped assess investments for Tiger Management out of Shanghai, established Karst Peak Capital Ltd in Hong Kong.
Tokyo hedge fund Japan Advisory has been hit with a second penalty for insider trading with Japan's securities watchdog recommending a USD1,500 fine reported Reuters. The firm is believed to have traded on information gleaned from a research report produced by Nomura Holdings Inc, specifically with respect to a planned fundraising exercise by chipmaker Elpida Memory in July 2011.
The Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission (SESC) is clamping down on insider trading activity although it is not calling for Nomura to be fined. Apparently, one of Nomura's employees inadvertently tipped off the hedge fund, something that the firm discovered of its own accord through a voluntary internal investigation.
As the Wall Street Journal reported, Nomura admitted in a statement that there was a "strong possibility" that it was connected to the incident, the brokerage adding: "Nomura continues to fully cooperate with the commission in its investigation".
Basically, because Elpida's name had been left out of a sector report – part of an internal rule policy that removes names from research reports of companies due to announce a share offering – Japan Advisory put two and two together and drew the obvious conclusion. It is believed that the brokerage has since implemented improvement measures that include allowing the names of companies preparing a share offering to be included in any such research report.
US pension funds are some of the most aggressive in terms of allocating new capital to global macro strategies, and preference seems to be for home-grown macro managers in Asia reported AsianInvestor this week. Kier Boley, head of equity hedge investments for GAM's multi-manager business, said that the reason people like them "has been that one of the legs of their trade will be in the region", noting that some managers had done well through China exposure. Boley said that local managers had been able to capture interest rate movements quicker than, say, US-based macro managers. "In short, local Asian managers have caught the rate-cut trend earlier than others," Boley was quoted as saying.

EFSA finds study insufficient for review of risk assessment
Singapore: The European Food Safety Authority has concluded that a recent paper raising concerns about the potential toxicity of genetically modified (GM) maize NK603 and of a herbicide containing glyphosate is of insufficient scientific quality to be considered as valid for risk assessment.
The study, published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology in September, was led by a French Professor Gilles-Eric Séralini. The study raised questions on the safety of NK603 manufactured for use in both the US and Europe by biotech giant Monsanto. EFSA set up a multi-disciplinary task force in response to an urgent request from the European Commission to evaluate a paper to assess whether its findings could lead the authority to reconsider its previous opinion on maize NK603.
A press release issued by the EFSA says initial review by the authority found that the design, reporting and analysis of the study, as outlined in the paper, are inadequate. To enable the fullest understanding of the study, the authority has invited authors Séralini et al to share key additional information.
Such shortcomings mean that the EFSA will not presently take the authors' conclusions as scientifically sound. The numerous issues relating to the design and methodology of the study as described in the paper mean that no conclusions can be made about the occurrence of tumors in the rats tested.
Therefore, based on the information published by the authors, the EFSA does not see a need to re-examine its previous safety evaluation of maize NK603 nor to consider these findings in the ongoing assessment of glyphosate.

Keeping the wight off - weighed in at 180 yesterday, a sight better then 240 back in 2003.
Just loaded the top-secret eval version of Project David from SpecOps Labs in the Philippines. This thing is going to scare the shit out of Microsoft - it even had me looking over my shoulders. To start with, it runs Office XP Professional at least 60% faster then when I'm booted into XP itself. I mean, it was like BAM! It's up. There wasn't a single app I tried - IE 6.0, Powerpoint, Photoshop and games that the thing didn't run incredibly well. Actually, I wouldn't mind being able to throttle it back a bit. What amazed me more then anything was it's ability to run Microsoft Windows Server backoffice stuff like MS SQL Server. I'm convinced that their "Alpha" code designation means you can't print with it - cause that and USB devices were the only things I couldn't get working. It still needs some serious polishing - however, they do deliver on the ability to simply insert any Windows app CD, install and run it right off the Linux desktop. Much easier to use then straight-up Wine (there is some Wine in it) and much better integrated then the other Win on Lin offerings.
I'll be in Boston at Linuxworld hanging around the Linuxcare (Levanta) booth. I'd welcome the opportunity to see old friends if you're at the show. We'll even be running a Sputnik AP in the booth - levanta levanta... ;)
Lastly, thinking a lot about the LSB lately. I'd love to hear your opinions on 2.0, the upcoming 3.0 and ways the LSB could be more effective. I'm just diving into it - so feel free to educate me (kindly please).

U.S. official discusses prospects for peace in Sudan, April 7
Posted March 30, 2005; 04:25 p.m.
A State Department official will speak on "The Sudan Comprehensive Peace Agreement: A Framework for Eventual Peace and Reconciliation for All Sudanese" at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, April 7, in 16 Robertson Hall.
Charles Snyder, special representative for Darfur at the U.S. State Department, is expected to discuss prospects for peace, including the recent U.N. Security Council resolution establishing a 10,000-member peacekeeping force. The force is charged with reinforcing a peace agreement to end a 21-year civil war in the south of the country and lending assistance in the conflicted Darfur region in the west, where thousands of people have died in a separate conflict.
The lecture is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, the Global Issues Forum and the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies.

I started digital scrapbooking using Creative Memories Storybook. I now upload to shutterfly to print. Am curious about other programs. Storybook does have it limitations when buying products. Do I need photoshop?
If so which version. Trying to learn more.
Thanks for reading.

Welcome to Scrap Girls! If you aren't ready to jump to Photoshop, you could try Photoshop Elements first. There are free trials on Adobe's web site. There was an interesting article in yesterday's newsletter about GIMP and Elements. You can find that in the Newsletter. (I got the link from the homepage). Good Luck deciding!
Posted 10 January 2013 - 03:22 PM
Costco often has a reduced price on Photoshop elements. I tried a lot of different programs at first, but they all missed "something." There's so many tutorials for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements that you need to get started. I love PSE.
Posted 11 January 2013 - 02:04 AM
Welcome to Scrap Girls.
PSE is a great programme to use and is fairly easy to learn.

Hi Debbie - welcome to Scrap Girls! Like some of the others, I LOVE Photoshop Elements!
Posted 17 March 2013 - 12:25 AM
Hi, I am new to the forum but not new to ScrapGirls. I love the site...I use Photoshop Elements 9 and have 11 but haven't installed it yet. My name is Shirl and I create cards and scrapbooking pages to sell under the name bbuttcreations. I use both digital and traditional paper methods when I scrap and sometimes have fun with both on the same page. I strive for "unique" cards and pages - things that make people smile, even if they don't buy! Digital scrapping has opened up a whole new avenue of creativity and many thanks to ScrapGirls for all the inspiration.

At least inadvertently...
Gov. Walker Informed That Bill Targeting Unions May Cost State $46 Million In Federal Funds
WASHINGTON -- Budget referees and transportation officials in Wisconsin have informed Gov. Scott Walker (R) that if he were to pass his controversial anti-union legislation into law, he could be forfeiting tens of millions of dollars in federal funds for transportation.
Under an obscure provision of federal labor law, states risk losing federal funds should they eliminate "collective bargaining rights" that existed at the time when federal assistance was first granted. The provision, known as "protective arrangements" or "Section 13C arrangements," is meant as a means of cushioning union (and even some non-union) members who, while working on local projects, are affected by federal grants.
It also could potentially hamstring governors like Walker who want dramatic changes to labor laws in their states. Wisconsin received $74 million in federal transit funds this fiscal year. Of that, $46.6 million would be put at risk should the collective-bargaining bill come to pass -- in the process creating an even more difficult fiscal situation than the one that, ostensibly, compelled Walker to push the legislation in the first place.

It's one of those days that you want to remember.
Do you remember where you were the day of the Shuttle Challenger disaster? January 28th 1986. I was laid up in the hospital at Ft. Greely, Alaska with a broken knee.
Do you remember the falling of the Berlin wall? November 9th, 1989. I vividly can remember watching the news coverage of the wall be ripped apart and joyous Berliners scaling the wall in celebration.
Do you remember where you were and what you were doing on September 11th 2001?
The gut wrenching feeling that I get every time I see those towers falling. I was in Germany on a major training exercise with the Army. The news broke that we had been attacked. I thought to myself we are going to war.
2 years later I was in Baghdad.
There are many moments in our lives that are worth remembering. For whatever reason, Historical, memorable, or those days that are etched in our memories of good and bad times.
Today is one of those days. Good or bad, like of dislike, agree or disagree. Today Barack Obama is the President of the United States of America. The first African American man to hold this office. Freely elected and a participant in a smooth transition of power in the seat of the most visible office in the world.
Today is a day to remember.
We as Americans and people of the world will look on this as an historical day. And one day say, I remember where I was the day the 44th President of the United States entered office.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

|Film begins
|Q and A
A series of free screenings, plus art workshops and exhibitions, centered on this inspiring and lovely documentary, made by Academy Award-nominated filmmakers, about a homeless teen finding hope through creativity.
Presented by Rooftop Films and The Fledgling Fund
In honor of Inocente's triumphs through art, Rooftop Films, the Fledgling Fund, DreamYard Project, and Shine Global are hosting a free arts workshop for youth starting at 3pm. Anyone may attend the workshops for free. RSVP to firstname.lastname@example.com is recommended but not required.
Caine's Arcade (Nirvan Mullick | USA | 11 min.)
9 year old Caine Monroy spent his summer building an elaborate cardboard arcade inside his dad's used auto parts store, and invited the world to play.
Burt Talks to the Bees (Isabella Rossellini | USA | 2 min.)
Meet the bees—the queen, the workers and the drones—in this wonderfully fantastic and wildly educational series of short films created by Isabella Rossellini, actress, director and uncanny Burt impersonator. Once you meet them, you'll want to save them too. Visit www.wildforbees.com to see how.
Inocente (Sean Fine, Andrea Nix Fine | USA | 40 min.)
Life as a teenager can be stressful: conflicts with your parents, pressure from your peers, constant self-doubt and soul searching. You're trying to figure out who you are in the world, and the more you learn, the more confusing and overwhelming life may seem. Making art can be a powerful remedy for daily tension, a liberating way to express your feelings and ideas.
For Inocente, a homeless teen in San Diego, making art provides a home base, a point of stability in an otherwise unsettled existence. As the child of a single, immigrant mother, Inocente has faced hardship her whole life. At the lowest point, her mother, desperately uncomprehending how to survive, almost sacrificed the entire family. Inocente, rather than folding under the pressure, has flourished.
She's never lacked for canvas, except perhaps at home. Struggling to fit in at an unsympathetic school, a place where the other kids always seem to have more than she does, wearing her art every day gives her the confidence she needs to face the world. Her brilliant use of color and her florid designs are enlivened by this elegant documentary, revealing the beautiful depth of her work and her personality. In the film, Inocente's daily struggles are documented with a calm nobility, while her art-making is vividly brought to life with close-ups so dynamic you can almost smell the paint. You certainly feel her passion and joy, and see it in her wide smile and bright eyes.
Inocente's ability to find a creative outlet has helped her define herself and achieve practical successes which will help her for a lifetime. Rooftop Films, the Fledgling Fund, Inocente and the filmmakers would like to share this inspiration with New York City youth (ages 8-18), by hosting a series of free screenings and art-making workshops. The afternoon workshops will begin with a screening of the film and a discussion on the creative process. We will then provide a variety of free art materials and instruction, so every student can create original works that express their own personalities. In the evening, students will have dinner (provided by Rooftop), while a free, outdoor public screening takes place. After the screening, student work will be displayed for the public and the creators can discuss their work. This stimulating and engaging event will be a pleasure for young people and adults alike.

El Medio
El Medio is the solo project of Leonardo Balasques (Oscilador 4, Balún). Since 2004, Balasques has used this outlet to release very personal songs about life, friendships and love. Using his bedroom (and subsequently his living room) as a recording studio, Leo has crafted an expansive discography that experiments with the confrontation of synths and traditional instruments to create a folk/pop hybrid that warms the heart and stimulates the brain. El Medio has just released the album No Le Tengas Miedo Al Amor, on which you'll find Hasta Caer, featuring strings by Balún's Angélica Negrón and an unexpected, yet much welcomed, dose of blistering guitar noise and distortion.

The slow U.S. economic recovery and persistently high unemployment rate have made the economy the central issue in the 2012 presidential campaign. With job creation the top priority for most U.S. voters, President Barack Obama and GOP contender Mitt Romney have outlined competing policy proposals they say would stimulate the economy and boost hiring.
In September 2011, Obama proposed a $447 billion stimulus bill to create new jobs through public investment in infrastructure and education, along with payroll tax cuts for the middle class. At the same time, Obama has called for raising income taxes on the top 2 percent of earners, while extending the Bush-era tax cuts for the rest of the population--a plan passed by the Senate in July 2012.
Meanwhile, Romney and many other Republicans have advocated extending the Bush tax cuts for all Americans as a way to stimulate the economy and facilitate job creation. The Romney economic plan is largely centered on cutting taxes at the corporate and personal levels, while balancing the budget through federal spending and entitlement cuts. Romney has vowed to repeal the two signature pieces of legislation from Obama's term--the health-care and financial reforms laws of 2010--which he argues hurts the United States economically. In the summer of 2012, the Obama and Romney campaigns battled over the role of entitlements and other federal programs, with both sides accusing the other of seeking to destroy Medicare.
At the Republican National Convention on August 28-30, the GOP outlined a platform for using "free market policies"--including deregulation, lower taxes, and increased free trade--to "boost employment and create job growth and economic prosperity," while criticizing Obama's handling of the economic crisis.
