You're in need of an affordable hearing aid. The search for this – with newspaper ads, phone calls, referrals, and Internet surfing – has been an arduous one. Or has it?
Probably not, thanks to e-commerce creating a new industrial order.
Today, it is difficult to detach "commerce", the act of buying and selling, from its prefixed "e" with 2012 online sales totaling $820 billion (up 15% from the year before). Ten years ago, the process of purchasing something might involve a pile of print ads and, unbelievably, actually going to a store. But what if your ideal product didn't advertise? What if the store was out of stock? What if no one else in your life could give you a tip or a deal or a review?
This is the issue e-commerce aims to solve; it is a consumer-centric industry aimed at helping people find exactly what they want to buy. The Internet is a single hub for searching, finding, comparing, advertising, and, most importantly, purchasing. The result? It comes right to your door.
Though once a brick-and-mortar industry controlled exclusively by audiologists, the hearing aid market is now also going online. There is no longer a need for retail markups. Advertising costs are reduced with the facility of search. Overall, online industry brings down consumer hearing aid prices and increases customer potential from select to global, allowing e-commerce sites like Embrace Hearing to enter and change the market.
With hearing aid prices starting at $399, wouldn't you agree?

I'm impressed, I need to say. Actually rarely do I encounter a weblog that's both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head. Your concept is outstanding; the concern is some thing that not sufficient many people are speaking intelligently about. I am pretty happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this.

Peppermint Ice ReviewJul 20, 2010, 07:34 (0 Talkback[s])
(Other stories by Jim Lynch)
[ Thanks to Jim Lynch for this link. ]
"Peppermint OS One made quite a splash when I reviewed it. Many people had never heard of it, and there was a lot of curiosity about a web-oriented remaster of Ubuntu. Some time has passed and there's a related version that has been released. This new distro is called Peppermint Ice. Why is it called Ice? Well read on to find out. Please note that development of Peppermint OS One will continue. Peppermint Ice is a separate distro and the Peppermint developers will be supporting both versions. The developers got a lot of requests from the Peppermint OS One community to do a version with Chromium as the browser and thus Peppermint Ice was born.

This is a blog to chronicle this portion of the life of Staff Sgt. Jason Ross, my son, as he mends, after an I.E.D. explosion, on March 7, 2011, while serving his country in Afghanistan.
Tuesday, June 12, 2012
June 12, 2012
It was a great time for us to get to know Anthony a little better, and for him to get to know us more. I liked him before dinner, and even more after. The girls will be brought over to the house early in the morning tomorrow, about 06:30, and then spending the next few days will us completely. We would have rather they be left with us tonight, but that didn't work out, so they'll have to be gotten up early tomorrow. Otherwise, it looks like there really isn't much else to cover right now, and we'll just have to wait to see what happens with the Jason recovery show tomorrow. Thank you, for continuing to show all the support you've been giving and for all the prayer support that we have been feeling.

We may not comment here all the time but we are reading everything. Jason has our prayers for him and his family and our thoughts - many times almost every day. He is never far from our thoughts.ReplyDelete
Praying hard that Jason will be back home quickly and can start up the new treatment!ReplyDelete
Psalms 46:7, 10-11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.(10-11) Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

Relieved to know that the infection is down. I'd love to see it down and OUT, but I'll take the progress. Anthony Neto is very inspiring. I'm glad Jason has such a good bud. Hope Jason can get out of the hospital pretty soon, at least in time for Dad's Day. Give the kiddos a hug from me.ReplyDelete
Go Giants!
All our best,

Livermore Friends
I learned about Jason just today for the first time through Job Connections. I am so grateful for all he has done for us through his service, and I am now making a personal request to God to grace Jason, and all those whose lives he has touched, with his complete recovery. I am praying for your continued strength to support him.ReplyDelete
Hi Ross family,Thank you for the daily updates. I'm happy to see that Stacy and Jackie look happy and seeing Jason play golf and working on the lathe. These things seemed so distant over a year ago. You mentioned Hugh and Julie Keener... if they are the same couple, I see them at my dental office. Small world. Continued prayersReplyDelete
This is really good news! I am glad that Jason is much better and hope that he will be able to go for the hyperbaric chamber treatment which will definite help him. Will continue to pray for all of you. Take care and God bless.ReplyDelete

What Your Body Needs:
When you think of your bones, you often visualize something that is solid, inflexible; an unseen scaffolding that supports your muscles, organs and tissues.
What you don't see, is the efficient process of repairing and rebuilding that occurs inside your amazing bone matrix. There are blood vessels, nerves, and even collagen fiber, which help your bones remain flexible. Yes, your bones need to be flexible in order to withstand a lifetime of impact.
All that life happening inside your 206 bones requires nutritional support which can be difficult to obtain from diet alone.
- 100% of the daily requirement of Calcium
- Vitamins K1 and K2, along with 1000 IU Vitamin D3 for peak bone density and nutrient absorption*
- Magnesium, Vitamin C, Silica and Boron, the nutrients responsible for a healthy bone matrix*
Univera Advantage:
Peak bone health can only be provided by a spectrum of quality ingredients at effective levels. That's why we created 206 Complete. This innovative formula was designed to support bone density, strength and flexibility.*

Maintain Your Framework
Every second of every day, your body is performing hundreds of complex functions to keep you moving, breathing, thinking, fighting off infection…you get the point. One of these life-sustaining tasks is the constant break down and rebuilding process of your bones. Like a snake shedding its skin, your body strips away old bone matter and replaces it with new material through a process called remodeling.
Think of it as a road crew. One group of workers, known as osteoclasts, excavate, or absorb, old bone cells, while another group of workers called osteoblasts build new bone in its place. Like filling in potholes on a busy street, this amazing maintenance process keeps your foundation strong, pliable and performing at its peak.
When you're young, the osteoblasts (builders) outnumber the osteoclasts (excavators), resulting in bone gain and growth.
When you age, the situation reverses. The osteoblasts can't keep up even as the osteoclasts continue to efficiently excavate the old bone. Think of those road crew workers you see sitting around while a few other guys do all the work – they're the osteoblasts.
The result? A loss of bone mass. The solution? 206 Complete.
And did you know…
The reduced activity of osteoblasts is partially a result of the natural decline of DHEA, the most comprehensive repair signal in the body. Since DHEA triggers osteoblast activity, Univera PRIME can further support the repair process of your bones as well as other functions in your body.

2012-09-13 - In the second of eight installments, ENSLAVED bassist/vocalist/lyricist Grutle Kjellson and rhythm guitarist/songwriter/lyricist Ivar Bjørnson offer song commentaries on their trademarked Norwegian strain of progressive extreme metal that will be unveiled with their twelfth studio album, RIITIIR, due out on September 28th .
Kjellson on "Death In The Eyes Of Dawn":
"It is impossible for a band like ENSLAVED not to be inspired by Bathory! And we somehow always end up paying a little tribute to Quorthon on each album. Bathory is our musical roots, maybe more than any other band. On Axioma Ethica Odini, the song 'Singular' became 'the Bathory song,' and this time it was 'Death In The Eyes Of Dawn' that got that honor! The song changed a whole lot from the first sketches, partly because of mine and Herbrand's vocal arrangements and partly because of co-producer Iver Sandøy´s crazy idea that the second theme in the song sounded very Beatles-like and thus we had to develop that theme in a more Beatles-like direction! We did so, and ended up sounding nothing like the Beatles whatsoever! Maybe the bass guitar does, but I doubt that Macca [McCartney] ever sounded like I do vocally… not even on the demos for Magical Mystery Tour. The lyrics are inspired by the idea of self-destruction and the final judgment (Ragnarok in the Norse Mythology). You can find in several of the different mythologies around the globe: the mutual fear of the 'dark' forces in cosmos."
Bjørnson on "Death In The Eyes Of Dawn":
"A great thing with writing music for ENSLAVED is how solid the core identity of the band is: there's room for allowing quite 'direct' inspirations and references into the music, and it still comes out and across as ENSLAVED's interpretations of the music we're inspired by, rather than us trying to be someone else. The main theme of the song is a humble tribute to 'Viking-era' Bathory (Hammerheart and Twilight Of The Gods) without being anything else than pure ENSLAVED in my ears. The two singers are doing such a formidable job on this track, and I've got to say that Ice's lead before the mid-break is my favorite lead of his on this album... perhaps even among his entire body of work: simple, elegant and saturated with emotion and atmosphere. It is also necessary to emphasize co-producer Iver Sandøy's invaluable participation in both the arrangement and production of the song; he played a large role in the song's dynamics and final arrangement. It also has to be mentioned how brilliant Grutle's title for the song is. Discussing the lyrics with him, I learned that my own understanding of them took a different path from his - all you could wish from lyrics!"

Bulldozers overhaul Luxor, city of pashas and pharaohs
By Alexander Dziadosz
LUXOR, Egypt (Reuters) - In the dusty streets behind the pasha's grand villa, bulldozers and forklifts are tearing into the city where Agatha Christie found inspiration and Howard Carter unearthed Tutankhamun.
Egypt has already cleared out Luxor's old bazaar, demolished thousands of homes and dozens of Belle Epoque buildings in a push to transform the site of the ancient capital Thebes into a huge open-air museum.
Officials say the project will preserve temples and draw more tourists, but the work has outraged archaeologists and architects who say it has gutted Luxor's more recent heritage.
"They basically want to tear the whole thing down," said one foreigner who lives in Luxor part of the year, agreeing to speak only if his name was not used.
"They want it to be all asphalt and strip malls and shopping centres. That's their idea of modern and progressive."
He pointed to the destruction of the 19th-century house of French archaeologist Georges Legrain, demolished to make way for a plaza outside Karnak temple, and plans to knock down the 150-year-old Pasha Andraos villa on the Nile boardwalk.
While known mostly for temples and tombs, Luxor's Victorian-era buildings and dusty alleyways have drawn Egyptologists, statesmen and writers for decades.
Samir Farag, a former Egyptian general who now heads the billion-dollar plan to reinvent Luxor, dismisses the criticism. Improvements to the city had reduced traffic and brought top-notch education and healthcare. Continued...

I have a stock HU which features FM radio,cd, and cassette tape- I don't use the last two . I'm currently feeding the signal from my mp3 player to the FM radio using a small plug-in FM transmitter (there's no brand on it, but IIRC it's from Monster). However, the radio picks up intermittent static regardless of which of the 8 transmit frequencies I choose and the sound is degraded somewhat (even more than using the compressed mp3 format). For instance, radio reception cuts off somewhere around 15.5-16.5kHz, if I remember right.
Is there some way short of buying a new head unit to clean up, improve or otherwise hard-wire a signal source into the stock head unit? I considered the "cassette" option, but understand that aligning the cassette with the tape head is iffy.
On another note, I have one of the underseat subwoofers. Does this feed more power to the 4 door speakers than the HU alone, or does the amp inside the subwoofer only power the subwoofer speaker?
Thanks for any ideas,

With a strong commitment to development and individual responsibility, the Office of Career Services is dedicated to assisting students and alumni in cultivating the life-long skills needed to successfully navigate their educational and career journeys.
Career Services assists students & alumni with major and career exploration, internship strategizing, career planning, and graduate school preparation. Throughout the academic year, we offer a variety of career workshops and events as well as career fairs designed to connect students with prospective employers. In addition, the office maintains a range of online career resources including REDHAWKjobs.com, Southeast's online job search service. We believe that career development is a process, and advise students to begin early and take ownership of their career decisions.
The role of Career Services is not to act as an employment or placement agency. We provide students with the tools, resources and opportunities to identify part and full-time jobs, internships, and appropriate graduate schools. Ultimately, students are responsible for their placement or outcome.
At the Office of Career Services, we occasionally receive requests from parents or family members concerning their student's participation in our services, visits to our office, or content of career counseling sessions. With being an office at a postsecondary institution, we follow strict guidelines concerning the release of student information, as outlined in the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Click the button below for more information regarding FERPA, as outlined by the U.S. Department of Education.
Services are provided primarily in-person and are appointment based, with the exception of identified walk-in services. If an in-person appointment is not a feasible option, services may be provided through alternative means (Phone, Skype, Email).
To schedule an appointment, students may stop by or contact the Office of Career Services:
Academic Hall 057
Phone: 573-651-2583
E-mail: email@example.com
Office Hours: 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. (Monday - Friday)
*Spring Break/Summer Hours: 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
REDHAWKjobs.com is an on-line resource which connects current students/alumni with employers, from
all over the United States and world, who are providing employment opportunities.
After setting up their profile, students/alumni are able to search position postings,
develop and save application materials, and much more!
While primarily utilized for full-time opportunities, REDHAWKjobs.com can be utilized to post part-time time positions as well. Students are encouraged to contact the Office of Career Services for assistance with setting up their profile and with any questions.
Our office encourages students to "begin with the end in mind" and students should be actively engaged with their career development starting their first year in college. In addition to homework for class, students should also be doing homework on themselves to define what they would like to do after college. Then, develop a plan which will aid them in maximizing their college experience and set them up for success post-graduation. Our office can assist your student with both of these items and more!
First, this is okay and there are more students who enter college without knowing their major then you may think. Second, in addition to working with their academic advisor, we would encourage your student to schedule an appointment to meet with one of our career counselors. Our counselors will assist your student in their career exploration process and provide insight and resources which will place your student in the best position possible to make an informed decision on their post-graduation path. If your student would like to begin the exploration process on their own, they can review our office's Career Decision Making Model by clicking "Choose a Major/Career" within the Student Resources section of our website.
An internship is an opportunity provided by an employer for an individual, usually an undergraduate student, to work for that employer for a fixed period of time. Internships may be paid and/or may incorporate course credit but not all of them will. The emphasis, and true benefit to the student, should be placed on skill development and the educational experience they receive. This is why internships are important because they have the potential to provide students with additional skill sets, work experience, and networking connections. When observing internship opportunities, students are encouraged to pursue internships which align closest to their major and career goals.
Some academic programs at SEMO require an internship but not all of them. Your student will first want to consult with their academic advisor to verify if their program does require an internship and if so, what resources are available to assist in finding an internship. All students, regardless of major, have the Office of Career Services as a resource. Your student can schedule an appointment to meet with a member of our staff, for search assistance and advising, and/or utilize REDHAWKjobs.com to review posted internship opportunities from employers.
For either direction, it is never too early for a student to begin setting their post-graduation goals and formulating/implementing a plan to reach them. For graduate/professional school, a student should begin to examine this option for themselves and be moving toward a decision by the end of their second year. This will place them in a position to start examining potential programs and getting their application materials ready during their third year. For more assistance, your student can schedule an appointment with a member of our staff and/or review our "Graduate School Preparation" resources by going to the Student Resources section of our website.
If a student is looking to acquire employment following graduation, they should start their search no later than two semesters prior to graduation. In the current job market, a lot of positions are acquired through strategic networking. With this, students should begin building and utilizing their network of contacts at the same time they begin reviewing on-line job boards and potential employer websites. For additional assistance with their job search, your student can schedule an appointment with a member of our staff and/or utilize our office's on-line resources (REDHAWKjobs.com & Student Resources).

Senior Amanda Makoid matched a career-high with four goals as the American University women's lacrosse team defeated Old Dominion, 12-10, on Saturday afternoon at Jacobs Field. The Eagles scored eight of the game's final 11 goals to earn the come-from-behind victory.
Old Dominion (0-1) took an early 2-0 lead over American (2-4) before an unassisted Emily Stankiewicz goal got the Eagles on the board six-plus minutes into the game. The Monarchs regained a two-goal advantage, 3-1, until back-to-back AU strikes evened the game at three. Makoid knocked home the first and Lisa Schaaf scored the second off a Lauren Schoenberger feed.
The Monarchs responded with four of the game's next five goals to take a 7-4 lead with 3:17 to go in the first half. Maeve Koch recorded American's lone goal during the stretch off a free position shot.
From that point on, AU began to assume control of the contest, beginning with an unassisted goal by Emily Burton late in the first half to cut the halftime deficit to two, 7-5. The Eagles started the second half with three straight goals to take an 8-7 advantage with 21:37 to play, their first lead of the game. Makoid, Chiara Speziale and Bernadette Maher registered American's goals during the run.
After an Old Dominion conversion tied the game at eight, the Eagles again knocked home three straight goals over a six-plus minute stretch to take an 11-8 lead. Makoid converted the first two of the goals for American and Paige Lin recorded the final goal during the run, which came at the 9:34 mark of the second half. Schaaf later added an insurance goal for the Eagles as they came away with the 12-10 home victory.
Makoid's four goals match her career-high, which she previous set last season at George Mason. Schaaf also added two goals, which also ties her previous career-best. Schoenberger recorded a game-high two assists for the Eagles as well.
Ashley Kellogg and Nicole McMahon scored three goals apiece to lead Old Dominion.
Emma Larkin paced the Eagles with four groundballs, while Koch and Stankiewicz each had a team-high four draw controls for AU. Goalkeeper Kaska Komokinski registered five saves for the Eagles in picking up her second victory of the season.
The Eagles will return to action next Saturday, March 13 when they host Colgate in both squads' Patriot League opener. Game time is scheduled for 1 p.m.

This is a follow up on a thread I started about reduced recoil 00 pellets having the same energy as many .380 loads and I wanted to just add some awareness about reduced recoil loads. I'm in no way saying they shouldn't be used - that's entirely up to you. All I want to accomplish here is to make sure we are accurately aware of what low recoil loads actually are.
I think before going on, I'd like to address a trend I see all over the internet. The vast majority of posters that refer to the effectiveness of a particular load only concern themselves with the pattern the load produces. That's all - the effectiveness of the round as a man stopper is based on pattern alone.
The assumption is that if the pattern is good, the energy will be there. However, there is some reason to question the validity of that assumption. Low or reduced power rounds, advantageously marketed as low recoil, may not hold up energy-wise at 25 yards that most pattern-only based evaluators set for 00 buck. Sure, the pattern can look really good, but does it deliver the energy/momentum required for adequate penetration you are assuming it will?
Actually, none of the following matters if street results show reduced power loads effective at the ranges we are considering. However, reports from the street do raise doubt. We have seen two reports of failures of Federal 132 00 reduced power loads from the street in real-world shootings.
One report was posted in my other thread by a police officer that has seen numerous failures on large dogs and people.
Another report revealed that at 40 yards, and I agree that's stretching the range a bit, but that same load wouldn't even penetrate a 'cheap leather jacket'. Again, 40 yards does push the range, but that was those officers' reality. They were loaded with low power and it didn't do the job. If they had had full power loads we might have seen an entirely different result. Plus, many a deer has been taken with full power 00 at about the 40 yard range and apparently the full power penetrated the deer's leather jacket.
Again, it is not my intent to condemn low power loads, but to explain exactly what they are, how they work, and why the effective range may need to be adjusted back from the generally accepted range of 25 yards to 19 yards.
Low recoil is actually low power loads - nothing more. So why are they called low recoil? Who would want to shoot a reduced power load if they could shoot a reduced recoil load? Unfortunately, there are no shortcuts or magic to reducing recoil produced by rounds. There are only three ways to reduce recoil via the round itself, reduce the mass, reduce the velocity, or both. Here's a comparison to clarify that:
A 12 ga full power load launches 9 00 pellets from the muzzle at 1325 fps. That produces an energy of 1890 ft-lbs. A popular reduced power load is Federal LE or PD 132 00 which also consists of 9 00 pellets, but they reduce the muzzle velocity to 1145 fps which yields a muzzle energy of 1415 ft-lbs. That's a difference of 479 ft-lbs. How much of a difference is that?
Well, 1890 ft-lbs is 34% more muzzle energy than 1415 ft-lbs. IOW, the muzzle energy of a reduced power load is 75% of the full power load. In fractions, a reduced power load has 3/4 the energy, at the muzzle, of a full power load. But, there's nothing wrong with shooting a load that's 3/4 of a full power load as long as we keep it within its effective range.
There are three characteristics to be aware of: Energy delivered, pattern, and penetration. When I discussed this in the other thread, I lost some folks and it took a long time to get everything clarified and I want to avoid that this time, so I'm gonna use two examples to illustrate the principles involved.
I'm going to take patterning as a given and assume the pattern is fine. We have to understand why individual pellet energy is significant and that in one case the pellets' energy that strikes a target adds and in another case they act totally as stand alone projectiles. This is where I lost some people in the other thread; they could not see the significance or relevance individual pellet energy. Let's start with the additive effect of pellets on a target.
Let's say we set a steel plate to fall with a 9mm, 115 gn, 1150 fps bullet striking the upper half of the plate. So we tune our adjustment screw and shoot iteratively until it's adjusted properly. Now what would happen if we shot the plate with a bullet that weighted 54 gns, less than half of the 115 gn 9mm, with a velocity of 1145 fps - would it knock the plate over? No, it's not up to a 9mm 115 gn bullet ballistics the plate is adjusted to. But a single 00 pellet is exactly 54 gns at approximately the same velocity. Now to illustrate the additive effect.
Next we consider two 54 gn pellets hitting the plate, will that knock the plate over? Yes, because the combined weight, velocity, and hence energy of two pellets nearly matches the ballistics of one 9mm the plate is tuned to.
So what do we deduce from this? Well, it takes two low power 00 pellets to equal the energy and momentum of a single 115 gn 9mm bullet. That's for impact or shock, but what about penetration? Let's look at that next.
Energy and mass of the bullet is what drives it into the medium, regardless of what the medium is. In the case of the steel plate, penetration was not an issue at all. That example really illustrates the conservation of momentum and that the energy and momentum of the pellets are additive in that case. Now we will replace the plate with ballistic gel. In this case we will be looking at penetration and the stand alone implications of the energy of the individual pellet.
Let's start slow. Will a 54 gn, 00 pellet penetrate as deeply as one 115 gn, 9mm round with the same velocity? No, it won't, theoretically, since it has half the mass, it has half the momentum and energy, it should penetrate about half as far as the 9mm.
Let's say we hit the gel with two 00 pellets and they are separated by 2 inches. That's just an arbitrary distance, it's only used to help with the visualization. It simply eliminates any stacking effect. That's justified because at 25 yards there is little chance of stacking. The question is will these two pellets penetrate deeper than the single pellet in the previous example? No, they won't, why? Because the only thing driving the pellet is the energy and momentum of the pellet itself - it gets no help from the other pellet.
Now we jump - what if 9 pellets hit the gel and there is no stacking? Do all of them some how magically penetrate deeper? No, there's no way any of the pellets can help each other. There can be some path intersections, but is that something we want to bet our lives on?
However, what is the total energy delivered to the target? It is the sum of the individual pellet energies. So we have additive impact, but stand alone penetration effects.
What this all boils down to is we can have a lot of energy delivered due to the additive effect. But even with all that energy delivered, we can still have poor penetration due to the stand alone effect of individual pellets.
I guess the bottom line is, understand what reduced recoil really is. Reduced recoil is not produced, low power is produced and it results in reduced recoil. Reduced recoil is a side effect of reduced power, not the other way around.
And, think about this. If full power 00 is effective to 25 yards, what should a load that is 3/4 of a full power load be effective to? How about 3/4 of the range? Or, 19 yards.
Just be careful you're not expecting full power load performance from reduced power loads. If it's enough for your purposes, then fine. But if you're pushing it to full power expectations it would be prudent to consider a full power load instead of the low power.
Or if you are expecting effective barrier penetration, keep in mind that full power isn't all that great of a barrier penetrator to start with, depending on what the barrier actually is. It was a cheap leather jacket in one instance.
To illustrate the relevance of such considerations, I'll leave you with this problem: If you have a choice of two loads, and they both have the same muzzle velocity and one load is 8 00 pellets and one is 9 00 pellets, which would produce the most recoil and by how much, and which would have more penetration capability?

" Address: Lima 11 / Ciudad de Buenos Aires / Buenos Aires C1073AAA / Argentina "
Lime House is a popular hostel on Calle Lima near the intersection of 9 de Julio and 25 de Mayo in the centre of Buenos Aires. I recently stayed here for around a month-although i don't mean to imply that the relatively long stay in one hostel means it was fantastic, i was just too lazy to move!
The hostel is in a great location for sightseeing as Plaza de Mayo is a 10 minute walk away and there is access to the other main tourist areas via the metro (subway) which stops just outisde. There are also bus routes across the city from the street the hostel lies on. Around the hostel itself there are plenty of restuarants and a couple of supermarkets. The one downside is that the main pubbing and clubbing area is in Palermo, quite far from the Lime house, and as the subway stops at around midnight the taxis to get to and from going out can become a hefty cost if you party out a lot.
First arriving in the hostel there is a fairly large common room with a reception/bar. The area can be a little dark as it has no windows but is welcoming and there are often other backpackers wandering around. Off this room is a pool (billiards, not swimming!) room and a enclave for computers. Continuing through there is a kitchen, eating area, TV room with cable and up a rather narrow set of stairs what is called a roof 'terrace'. A travel agency is also in the hostel and can arrange trips, flights and buses.
Rooms are available in doubles, singles and dorm rooms that range from 4-12 people. All the rooms are clean but some can feel as if they have been bashed around and a quick coat of paint sometimes wouldn't go amiss. Also many of the rooms don't have windows or access to natural light and can be a little dark and depressing. The bathrooms are kept clean, have hot water and there are plenty for the number of people who stay in the hostel. Two of them even have great pressure which I find a miracle!
The room costs are as follows for the high season (low season has a discount and long stays can also sometimes negotiate a further discount):
12 bed dorm: 35
6 bed dorm:45
4 bed dorm:50
Double queen:60
Double queen w/ private bathroom:80
Single w/ private bathroom:150
All prices in argentinian pesos, currently around 6 pesos to £1
These prices are on the low side of average for the city and include breakfast and sheets/towels. Internet access is also free but I have to point out that the internet was sporadically not working for at least half the time I was there.
The breakfast itself is quite good, self-service, with medialunas (croissants), cornflakes, oranges and apples and tea/coffee available. However, on busy days there often wasn't quite enough particularly of the popular medialunas-I found out that they only provide one per person which seems a little stingy. The other problem is that breakfast is only available from 8-10am-which may not seem so terrible but this is a city where you don't start heading out to a club until 2am and so 10 am is very early. it did seem designed so that they could guarantee a certain percentage missing breakfast each day-when the 'one croissant per person' issue was discovered one of the staff even said there was no way the majority of the hostel made it to breakfast each day.
Another few downsides I found in the hostel were the fact that the couches in the common area and the TV room were the least comfortable things I have ever sat on. Not exactly inviting to sit around and chat on. Also the bar area played really loud music until late at night particularly at the weekends even though usually there weren't many people trying to party. For the rooms which border onto the bar (and there are a few) this could be very annoying. The hostel also officially bans bringing in alcohol so that you must buy from their bar. The prices are cheap compared to a pub or club but still 3 times more than the shop just outside and I find it a little irritating and too money-focused when hostels do this.
When I first arrived smoking seemed to be allowed everywhere including in the bedrooms and kitchen which I found quite disgusting but to be fair this was really stamped out and I think it may have been some rule-breakers who started smoking wherever they liked regardless of the others and it just became a trend.
The upsides of the hostel are that it is relatively cheap and i found both the staff and the guests very friendly. The roof terrace is also a huge bonus as it is massive and a great place to sunbathe, sit out and watch the city at night or chill during the day. i would point out though the terrace part is a little misleading-it is more just of a big open roof with a few chairs thrown around but that gives it some charm for me and doesn't stop it being a good place to hang out.
One other thing I did really like about the hostel was the good mix of people who stay there. There was a wide range of nationalities from latin America, north America, all across Europe, Israel and Australia. It never felt that one group was dominating the hostel too much. Aside from nationalities the people themselves also varied in age, lifestyle and attitude towards life which made the place interesting and ensured that there was usually someone to be friends with in the hostel for anyone who turned up.
The hostel as a whole has a very slight run down feel to it but is extremely up beat and friendly. I think that a few relatively minor changes could make this an excellent hostel but for now I have to rate it as middle of the road..

Bradley Cooper: Leading "Indiana Jones" Reboot?
He's always up for a challenge, and Bradley Cooper is rumored to be the new lead in a forthcoming resurrection of the "Indiana Jones" franchise.
The "American Hustle" hunk is said to be the favorite of Disney's honchos, given his universal appeal and physical prowess.
Unfortunately, studio chairman Alan Horn told press, "We haven't done anything. We don't have a story. We need a story," when asked about the fate of Indy back in December.
However, Frank Darabont is developing an idea currently, and we could be making an official announcement by this summer!

b. The wholesale market complex
- On May 31, 2012, Tel Aviv Lev Towers Ltd. (the "Residential company") and the Tel Aviv City Mall Ltd. (the "Purchasers") in which BSRE held to that date indirectly 50% together with Gindi Investments 1 Ltd and a corporation controlled by Moshe and Yigal Gindi, ("Gindi"), completed the purchase of lease rights for the period ended on August 31, 2099 for a part of the wholesale market complex in Tel Aviv. The Purchasers paid the Sellers the balance of the consideration, according to the agreements, in the aggregate amount of approximately NIS 730 million (BSRE share - NIS 365 million) plus VAT. The sellers may be entitled to an additional consideration that shall be derived from the sale price of the apartments in the project. As of the date of this report, the sellers are not entitled to additional consideration. In order to pay the Balance of Consideration, the Purchasers received loans of NIS 730 million ( NIS 487 million to Tel Aviv Lev Towers Ltd and NIS 243 million to Tel Aviv City Mall Ltd.) from a bank. The Loans were extended for 18 months where the principal shall be paid in one payment at the end of the period and the interest payments of Prime + 2% are payable quarterly. The loan may be repaid early. To secure the loans, BSRE recorded a charge in favor of the Bank on the rights in the land and BSRE committed to provide unlimited guarantee in the amount of 50% of the purchasers' debts in addition to other collaterals and commitments. On December 31, 2012, the bank's consent to provide an additional loan to Tel Aviv City Mall Ltd. was received, provided that certain conditions are met, at the original loan repayment date and at the loan principal amount ( NIS 243 million) attributed to Tel Aviv City Mall Ltd. The additional loan shall be repaid in one payment until January 15, 2014. The loan agreement determines that the bank may call the loan for immediate repayment.
- During the quarter, the excavation and reinforcement works in the project were completed and the performance of skeleton work has commenced. On July 3, 2012, the purchasers signed an agreement with a performing contractor (the contractor) to perform all skeleton work of the parking lots, the commercial part, public structures and other finishing work. The purchasers shall pay the contractor for the work an estimated amount of NIS 286 million (BSRE portion amounts to NIS 143 million). The agreement sets forth schedules and milestones for performing this work where the contractor committed to complete the work in 19 months from receiving the work commencement order. Under the agreement, the contractor committed to provide the purchasers with guarantees and the agreement further determines agreed compensation in the event of material breach by the contractor. In addition, the agreement set forth a mechanism to calculate a bonus or penalties should the contractor performs the work earlier than the schedules or deviate from the schedules. The work commencement order was delivered to the contractor on July 4, 2012.
- On June 29, 2011, BSRE and Gindi entered into an agreement constituting an appendix (the Appendix) to the Memorandum of Understandings dated April 15, 2010, (MOU) that regulates the relations between the Company and Gindi in all that concerns the wholesale market complex in Tel Aviv. According to the Appendix, Tel Aviv Lev Towers allocated to Gindi one additional share of NIS 1 par value for NIS 300 thousand such that after the allocation, Gindi holds (by chaining) 50.5% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Tel Aviv Lev Towers and BSRE (by chaining) holds 49.5% of the issued and outstanding share capital. On June 29, 2012, the parties completed the above allocation. The residential company ceased to exist under joint control at the end of the second quarter of 2012 and therefore the investment in Tel Aviv Lev Towers Ltd. was recorded on equity method of accounting. BSRE recorded in the statements of income, under other income (expenses), a gain of NIS 19.6 million representing the difference between the fair value of the Company's investment in the residential company upon losing control, and the investment balance as included in the books at this time.
- In 2012, BSRE recorded a gain of NIS 87.6 million from appreciation before taxes stemming from revaluation of real estate in the Tel Aviv City Mall Company.
- In December 2012, building permits were received for 652 apartments in the project and for two parking levels. BSRE estimates that building permits for the remaining 70 apartments, commercial space and parking shall be received in 2013.
- As of the date of this report, the residential company signed 619 sale agreements for the sale of apartments in a total amount of NIS 1,239 million out of which, NIS 603 million were received as of the date of the report.

Bodywork of the car remains still remains unclear though shots like the one above to reveal a few key points. In particular, the front quarter panel in this shot from above seems to confirm a box flare style of widened fender consistent with the
As the new MQB-based Audi A3 moves toward its Geneva Motor Show debut, miles are still be ing logged on A3 test mules. This particular one, practically undisguised with the exception of some masking around the lighting elements, was caught driving down public roads in Spain. Thanks Kiky for the eagle eye, snapping a quick photo and sharing it with us. Expect full coverage of the Geneva Auto Show debut of the new A3 in early March.
Following our report this week from the Audi Exchange about North American launch details surrounding the new Audi allroad, we were flooded with questions about the mention of monochromatic trim. Apparently there are also rumors out there that matte paint would clad the monochromatic cars. With a lack of clarity and a surplus of rumors, we decided to chase down an answer from Audi of America directly for a final word.
Just after we'd announced the winner this of our RS 4 Render Contest , well-known render artist Jon Sibal stepped up with a very interesting shot... similar to his version 2 above and the only artist to add in the box-style flares of the RS 5. Alas, Jon was too late to get in on the competition for the prize, but we think everyone would agree his work is top notch and win-worthy. Then Jon sent us a curve ball, a different

As most Audi fans are aware, a new generation of A3 will debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March. Those in the know also probably know that the A3 and other Audi models with transverse engines like the TT and eventually the A1 will move to a new modular transverse matrix dubbed MQB.
If MQB sounds similar to Audi's already employed MLB (modular longitudinal matrix) that underpins or will underpin nearly every
Earlier today we posted a story about leaked Audi Geneva Motor Show plans though that story had the RS 4 in the headline. Another notable model from the leaked document that confirmed this news (seen below) also confirms information about the expected launch of the new A3 (seen in spy photos above).
With news breaking just today about the RS 4's confirmation for Geneva, it's not a surprise that there's renewed interest in developing renders of the new car. The profile shots in our previous story are great and all, but they were done about two years ago and well ahead of the facelifted A4's arrival. We've just found this fantastic render over on AutoEvolution (news story and
We've just run across an apparent leaked document that outlines Audi's plans for the Geneva Motor Show. Written in French but also appearing in Audi's official font, the document appears to be authentic and perhaps part of an internal briefing on the Geneva show. The document confirms the A3, A6 allroad

On This Day in Music...June 23rd
Monday isn't good, unless you're talking about what happened On This Day in Music for June 23rd, because this is much better than work or thinking about next weekend!
We'll begin in Boston on June 23rd, 1975. Today Bob Marley and The Wailers began a 7 day residency at Paul's Mall. Residencies were big back then but this one was really special because they performed two shows each night! Bob and the band took the stage at 8:30 and then at 10:30 to play their full sets. They had to be exhausted after that!
There aren't many good recordings from the residency, but this one is solid. Listen to "Kinky Reggae"!
It's a shame there aren't better recordings of this or video. While seeing everyone on phones at shows now can be annoying, at least nothing is lost.
We'll move up to 2004 and discuss our friends The Beastie Boys. They released their album To The 5 Buroughs and it was today put on top of the charts! Number one baby!!! It wasn't well received by all the critics but it's the fans that did the talking on this one.
They did the song on Letterman in June 2004, half in the streets, half in the studio! Leave it to the Beasties to break the norm, as always!
They are the best.
Getting tossed into the deep end is the quickest way to learn how to do something, and Oasis had their first live show on June 23rd, 1995, with their new drummer Allen White. It's not just any show though, as they were one of the headliners of Glastonbury!
You learn quick in front of that many people! "Slide Away" was in the set (with Liam and his tambourine necklace)!
Why don't we talk birthdays too, and we'll keep the drummer talk going with our first.
Steve Shelley was born today in Michigan in 1962. Steve was the drummer for Sonic Youth for many years, leaving the band in 2012.
Many times over the years Sonic Youth appeared on Later With Jools Holland and they played "Teenage Riot" in 2009!
Another birth today was with former Oasis guitarist Paul Arthurs, aka Bonehead. He came to us on June 23rd, 1965, and was with Oasis from 1991 - 1999. He is still friends with everyone in the band and DJs at clubs all through Europe, but he said if the original Oasis lineup would reform he would do it in a heartbeat.
The Oasis debut on The Tonight Show was in January 1998 with "Don't Go Away"!
One more birthday for today to discuss and it's a man who wasn't on stage much but is better known for his work behind the scenes. It is the birthday of Brendan O'Brien, born June 23rd, 1960.
What has Brendan done in his career? How about producing for Pearl Jam, Incubus, Rage Against the Machine, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Matthew Sweet, Limp Bizkit, The Offspring, Audioslave, Danzig, Anberlin, The Wallflowers and Bruce Springsteen, just to name a few!
I think that's a birthday certainly worth celebrating! Enjoy your June 23rd! Skip out of work early, fake being sick. Don't waste your time working so hard!!!

This university was raised by the people of Newfoundland as a memorial to the fallen in the great wars, 1914-1918, 1939-1945, that in freedom of learning, their cause and sacrifice might not be forgotten." Memorial University Commemorative Statement
The founders of Memorial University had a desire to create a unique memorial as a tribute to those who served in war and made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of freedom. No simple monument would do. The university itself--its buildings and its grounds--would be, in perpetuity, a living memorial. Today, we, the employees of Facilities Management, embrace this responsibility with pride and accept their trust for maintaining, protecting, and further developing this living memorial for the rest of the university community and for the people of this province.
The Department of Facilities Management is committed to the pursuit of excellence in the delivery of its services and in the fulfillment of all aspects of its organizational mission.

Outside of WIPO, some countries are involved in secretive negotiations on a new Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). KEI asks WIPO to adopt a resolution calling for an end to the secrecy of this negotiation. Global norms for the enforcement of IP should be transparent and benefit from comments from the public before decisions are made on substantive provisions.

The governments of the United States, the European Commission, Japan, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Canada, and Mexico are negotiating a trade agreement named the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). Despite the name, the agreement is designed to address not only counterfeiting, but a wide range of intellectual property enforcement issues.

Condenser Fan Running Backwards!
It's a high-efficiency builder's grade unit about 10 years old and has been running perfectly until today. House got very hot this afternoon and I went out to check the unit and realized the condenser fan was running backwards - drawing air in at the top and blowing it out through the coils. The unit is working - kind of - but this obviously indicates a problem.
Any ideas?
if it is the oringinal motor (not reversable) and it is single phase (not three phase most often found in commercial), it is the capacitor most likely. Capacitor starts the motor and starts it in the right direction.
Thanks. I looked at the wiring (after pulling the disconnect, of course). Thought I might see some signs of a bad cap (case swelling, etc.). Nothing obvious. But when I plugged in the disconnect, the compressor started but the fan didn't. However, I could take a stick and manually get the blades started in the right direction, whereupon the fan slowly spun up and is now operating normally. Of course the next cycle will likely blow that to smithereens...
(And yes, it is a residential single phase unit.)
Change the cap.
I second that change the capacitior...:yes:

Diaz dethrones Ao: Report/Gallery
By Joe Koizumi
Photos: Naoki Fukuda
Mexican veteran Gamaliel Diaz (37-9-2, 17 KOs), 130, captured the WBC super-featherweight belt as he scored with long rights to bloodied defending champ Takahiro Ao (23-3-1. 10 KOs), 130, with better precision to win a close but unanimous decision over twelve gory rounds on Saturday in Tokyo, Japan.
Anek Hongtongkam (Thailand) and Glen Rick Crocker (US) both saw the give-and-take affair 114-112, and Steve Morrow (US) had it 115-111, all in favor of the Mexican challenger. The referee was Ian John-Lewis (UK), who penalized a point twice from Diaz in the third and fifth.
It was unfortunate that Ao, three years his junior at 28, sustained a gash over the left eyebrow caused by an accidental butt, which kept streaming more blood as the contest progressed. His vision deteriorating, Ao tried to be aggressive in the close quarter, pressing the action toe-to-toe with the taller opponent. Probably Ao lost his composure, while Diaz occasionally caught him with long direct rights to the onrushing southpaw. Strange enough, Ao had his well-reputed defensive skills gone only to absorb Diaz's sickle-like rights to the face.
Ao and Diaz shared the first two rounds since each scored with a few solid shots to the face. An unintentional butt happened midway in round three, when the third man had a point deducted from the taller Mexican due to the WBC eye-cut rule. Diaz was in command with a positive display of his long rights in the fourth.
After the fourth, the WBC open scoring system indicated Diaz leading on points: 38-37 and 39-36 for the challenger, and 38-37 for the champ.
The fifth round saw the referee again penalize a point from Diaz for his repeated low blows by far under the belt. Ao, still bleeding from the forehead, displayed good southpaw jabs followed by solid lefts and right hooks in the sixth. But the Japanese southpaw regrettably forgot to throw right jabs from then on. Diaz wasn't faster than Ao, but a little more accurate than the champ who probably felt too anxious to overwhelm the Mexican with stronger shots since he had been a prohibitive favorite over Diaz.
After the eighth, all the judges tallied 76-74: two for Diaz and one for Ao, which still showed it was a hairline contest up to that point.
In the last four sessions both looked fading and slowing down. Ao attempted to have the upper hand with one-two combinations, which were neither accurate nor effective against the still flexible Mexican. Diaz scored with occasional rights to the champ's face with red ribbon, which made the Mexican dominate at least three rounds down the stretch.
In retrospect, Ao might have had a wrong strategy. He might have been too eager to win convincingly, so became a bit too tense, too stiff and too monotonous. We know Ao has had a tendency of fluctuating in every fight—sometimes tremendously sharp and sometimes dull. Even with an understandable reason of bad bleeding that hampered his vision, Ao couldn't show his best performance but one of his poorest. He failed to display his trademark—fast and shifty footwork, sharp counter-punching and quick combinations out of his potential armaments. He looked only a one-dimensional fighter without revealing his boxing skills.
Gamaliel Diaz, 31, might have already passed his peak, but the Mexican veteran displayed his best from the spiritual—if not technical—viewpoint. His punches lacked snap, sharpness and power, but had better judgment of distance against the willing mixer. He often caught Ao's face with long rights that weren't strong but effective enough to impress the judges.
Diaz said, "I'll come back to Japan to defend my belt." For him, this country may be a lucky place where he thus registered three victories in as many bouts. As this is a voluntary defense for the dethroned champ Ao, there must be an option agreement that may oblige the new champ Diaz to fight Ao or some other challenger that the promoter will designate.
Third time does the trick. For Gamaliel, this was his third crack at the world throne. For him, this was his third visit to Japan. Probably many people hadn't expected the old Mexican hombre to win the belt abroad, but Goddess of victory smiled for the old soldier whose nickname was "Platano (banana)." The difference of a newly crowned world champion and an unsuccessful challenger is big enough. The difference is as big as to possess a plantation of banana and to buy only a bunch of bananas. It's a night for Gamaliel, not for Takahiro. Ao should remember and regain his technical excellence (with which he had gained six amateur championships after his 76-3 mark with 27 stoppages), which may be the AO (Army Order) next time.
WBA#9 ranked Japanese bantam champ Ryosuke Iwasa (13-1, 9 KOs), 118.75, swept all rounds to pound out a shutout decision (all 100-90) over David De La Mora (24-3, 17 KOs), 118.75, over ten. Iwasa, a tall southpaw, once had a grueling fight with the current WBC 118-pound champ Shinsuke Yamanaka despite his TKO defeat in the tenth and final round in March of the previous year. De La Mora once visited Japan and lost a hairline verdict to Koki Kameda in his bid for the WBA bantam throne thirteen months ago. Iwasa often pinned the moving target to the ropes or to the corner with a flurry of punches, but failed to finish him and bring home the bacon early.
In a sensational encounter of ex-national champions, WBA#9 lightweight Takashi Miura (24-2-2, 18 KOs), 135, scored a very quick stoppage of Ryuji Migaki (17-4, 13 KOs), 135, at only 97 seconds into the opening session of a scheduled ten. Miura's southpaw left exploded at the button early in the session with Migaki badly hitting the deck. He wobblingly stood up to resume fighting, but Miura's furious follow-up prompted the referee to intervene to save the loser from further punishment.

The British deputy prime minister, Nick Clegg, has used his first major foreign policy speech since the bruising House of Commons vote against military action in Syria to make an impassioned plea for ongoing western engagement with the world in the face of growing forces of isolationism.
In his address to the UN general assembly in New York, Clegg argued that the mood of the world community had swung in recent times towards a more insular position. That mood was evident in last month's parliamentary vote which cost Clegg personally when only 30 of his 56 Liberal Democrat MPs backed him in supporting US-led military strikes against the Syrian Assad regime in response to the use of chemical weapons.
"We must be honest: the forces of insularity and isolationism have gained momentum in recent years. Discrediting democracy feels easier," Clegg told gathered world leaders in the UN chamber.
He went on: "Authoritarian states point enthusiastically at the ongoing fallout of the 2008 financial crisis. Proof, they say, of a broken, western model. They feel vindicated … and at the same time, in many states affected by the financial crash, austerity has given rise to a period of introspection. The impulse is to turn in rather than face out."
Clegg made no reference to the Commons vote on 29 August in which the combined muscle of David Cameron and Clegg failed to persuade MPs to put aside their scepticism in the wake of the Iraq invasion and back another round of US military intervention. But he did commit the UK to standing beside those who support political freedom and economic empowerment.
"There will be no pulling up of the drawbridge from us; no heading into retreat. We will resist any impulse to turn our back on the world."
The UK is expected later today to use its vote as one of the five permanent members of the UN security council behind a new compromise resolution to require Syria to give up its chemical weapons. The resolution, which prompted President Obama to back off from airstrikes against Assad forces, makes it legally binding on Syria that it must give up its large chemical weapons arsenal – though at the request of Russia it contains no automatic punishment should the regime fail to comply.
Clegg told the UN in unequivocal terms that the Syrian government was responsible for a war crime on 21 August when it launched sarin nerve gas into opposition-held areas of suburban Damascus. He called it the first attack "on this scale for 25 years – 88 years after such weapons were universally banned."
"The international community must react, and react in unison," he said.
Clegg ran through other British priorities in his speech, many echoing those given by Obama in his opening address to the general assembly on Tuesday. The deputy prime minister welcomed the sense of detente in relations with Iran following the UN debut of the new Iranian president Hassan Rouhani and the restarting of negotiations on Tehran's nuclear programme in October.
He enthused too about the restarting of direct talks between Israel and Palestine over a two-state agreement to the Middle East crisis. On world poverty, he pledged the UK to continue meeting its target to spend 0.7% of gross national income on global development – the only country in the G20 group of nations to do so.
On climate change, Clegg urged the world to "listen to the science, act now and act together." But he did not go into details about how the UK would meet that challenge.
The overriding theme of the speech was that western democracies must resist the temptation to withdraw from their global commitments. That was a further echo with Obama, who in his address said that disengagement would be a "mistake" that would create "a vacuum of leadership" in the world.
"Now more than ever," Clegg told the UN, "we must fend off the forces of insularity and isolationism, stand up for our values and look out to the world. This is what the UK will do."

We'll see how this all plays out.
What I've heard from people I know out on the rock is Machacek has been disappointing so far this season. Playing more like a guy who feels he's entitled to a spot in the NHL than a guy that's still fighting for his place in the NHL.
I haven't seen him play, at all, but the people I've heard that from are reasonably credible in my eyes. You can take what you want from it.
But either way, I think the point is just that the last time most of us saw Machacek on a regular basis was over 9 months ago. The Jets organization, on the other hand, has been following him closely the entire time, on and off the ice. Whatever their opinion of him is, I'm inclined to just roll with it.
