Has anyone tried the autolumination cree 5w bulbs ?
Wide angle or spotlight , what do you recommend ?
Glad to hear some of these LED's are working without throwing any codes, I drive a GLI and I know these to be more sensitive to LED's for whatever reason. I am curious if anybody knows why the DRL's work fine with LED's but they wont work for the license plate?? And is everyone running these without any mods with the vagcom?
Has anyone tried these bulbs from autolumination ?
No, I don't buy cheap.
That half of what I am looking to pay.
37.00 shipped for the pair coupon code hl10
540 lumens, which is ridiculously bright
Way too bright.
120 is perfect to me. I want the DRls to glow, not project.
Do up a DIY while you're at it.
I guaranty someone will ask how you did it...
came in today
step one unscrew cap
step two turn counter clockwise to remove DRL
step three remove old bulb and install new LED ( small hands or long fingers work best to inscrew and take the socket out)
and your done
And with them off for comparison
This was during the day 12:00 with clear sky and sun beaming directly into the housing.
Were they what you expected?
They look clean... but it seems a little greenish, or maybe that's just the way it in the sunlight.
Can you let me know if they flicker or code on you? Maybe some pics during later in the day to see the true color of how it lights up during the dawn? lol...

Paul you said it all in this statement:
"The truth is that we all pay for shipboard entertainment - it is built in to the cruise fare."
And this should actually be the case of all the food on board too. That is one reason we won't go to any of the extra pay resturants on any ship.
The fact is who ever is truely responsible for the design of the Epic really screwed up with making the entertainment rooms so small that the passengers can not see the shows.
NCL "Freestyle" is really anything but since if you want to eat anyplace other than the MDR you need a reservation and that is not freestyle in my book that is more regeminented than having a set dining time, as you can always not go to the main dining room but rather the buffet and eat just as good.
We have yet to ever consider booking a themed cruise because of the higher price so it would really have to be something for us to do that. And from all that we have seen a lot of the group cruises are also more expensive and what do you get for the extra, a obc that you are really paying for and a party that you are paying for.
These things go hand in hand for us. We don't have a big budget for cruising so we have to make sure we get all we can for our money. We will pay for excursions otherwise we would not be able to see much of wherever we are cruising to. And that to us is more important than paying for shows or dining.

Three North Carolina student-athletes were among the 29 inductees announced Friday as UNC's Order of the Golden Fleece tapped its newest members. Jonathan Cooper (football), Krista Gross (women's basketball) and Meghan Lyons (field hockey), all seniors, were chosen for induction into the University's oldest honorary society.
Members are selected based upon service to Carolina, as reflected in scholarship, motivation, creativity, loyalty, and leadership in academic and extracurricular pursuits. Founded in 1904 to unite student leaders at UNC, inductees are generally seniors but juniors, graduate students, faculty and alumni also eligible for membership.
Cooper, a communication studies major from Wilmington, N.C. leaves UNC as one of the most decorated offensive linemen in school history. A team captain as a senior, he won the 2012 ACC Jacobs Blocking Trophy, became Carolina's first Outland Trophy finalist, and will have his jersey honored in Kenan Stadium.
Gross, a biology major from Charlotte, leads UNC in rebounding this season. She is a team captain for the Tar Heels, who currently are competing in the NCAA Tournament.
Lyons, a business journalism major from Wilmington, Del., helped UNC to four NCAA Championship games and a title in 2009. She also was part of two Atlantic Coast Conference Championships. She serves as president of UNC's Student-Athlete Advisory Council and has been very involved in campus life during her four years at UNC.
Lyons is the fourth Tar Heel field hockey player in the past six years to earn induction into the University's oldest honorary society, following field hockey alums Katelyn Falgowski (2012), Danielle Forword (2010) and Rachel Dawson (2008). Cindy Werley was inducted in 1998 after having been named National Player of the Year in back-to-back years. Coach Karen Shelton also is a member, having been inducted in 2002 for her achievements as the UNC coach.
"Meghan's level of campus involvement during her time at UNC has been extraordinary," Shelton said. "I've never had a member of our team become more ingrained in campus life than Meghan has, and I'm really proud of her for doing that. She represents our team so well, and she has made UNC a better place. I'm thrilled that she has been inducted into the Order of the Golden Fleece - it's a great honor, and Meghan is as deserving of it as any student I've known.
Following are the citations read at the induction for Cooper, Gross and Lyons.
For his leadership of the football team and exceptional service to children in the Chapel Hill community. On the field, Jonathan is one of the most talented offensive linemen in recent memory. He was named a consensus All-American, first-team All-ACC, and voted best offensive lineman on the team. A captain of the team, Jonathan started 43 games in his career, the most of any active offensive lineman in the ACC, and will have his jersey honored in Kenan Stadium. Jonathan, affectionately called "Coop" by his teammates, is widely known to be an exceptional athlete. But friends and coaches attest that he is as humble as he is talented, as kind and gregarious off the field as he is tenacious on the gridiron. With a passion for mentoring children, Jonathan spent every Friday before home games volunteering at the Children's Hospital. He was often found at multiple community elementary and middle schools reading Dr. Seuss to children, working with football teams, playing at field days, speaking to students about Black History Month, or mentoring a group of boys, discussing leadership, scholarship, and service in a group he calls "The Man Cave." For this, and many other reasons, the Order of the Golden Fleece proudly taps Jonathan Cooper
For her dedication to and outstanding leadership of the UNC Women's Basketball team both on and off the court. Krista Gross has served as a captain of the Women's basketball team for the last three years. Known for her toughness, exceptional leadership, and resiliency, she is one of the few remaining members of her recruitment class, serving as a thread of continuity for the team during several seasons of transition and loss of key players. Her gifts on the basketball court have earned her opportunities of representing UNC in several games of NCAA tournament play, playing for the Finland national team over the summer, and making appearances at the EuroBasket Tournament and World University Games. Furthermore, Krista is a model student-athlete, finding joy inexcelling in difficult courses leading her to a career as a physician. Highly regarded by her teammates, classmates, and coaches, she is an outstanding scholar and athlete who has made lasting contributions on the basketball court, community, and the classroom. For these and other accomplishments, the Order of the Golden Fleece proudly taps Krista Gross
For her leadership and contagious passion within Carolina Athletics and the greater university community. As a four-year member of the varsity field hockey team and two-time national champion, Meghan has served as a strong leader and ambassador for athletics during her time at Carolina. She served as the two-year president of the Student-Athlete Advisory Council, in which she engaged with policy and decision-making related to UNC student-athletics.
Meghan currently serves as the only student member of the Carolina Strategic Plan Advisory Committee, representing thousands of student athletes in crafting and authoring a strategic plan for Carolina Athletics. While her accomplishments in the athletic realm are beyond impressive, her commitment to the greater good of the university and the community is far-reaching as well. Meghan has worked tirelessly as President of Carolina Dreams, an organization that connects children in treatment at the NC Children's Hospital with UNC student-athletes. Additionally, she founded the Sun Safety Project to increase awareness of sun safety and skin cancer risks while collecting and providing sunscreen to the local homeless population. A true scholar-athlete, Meghan's character, genuine leadership, and humility have earned the respect of fellow student-athletes, coaches, and administrators. For these and other accomplishments, the Order of the Golden Fleece proudly taps Meghan Lyons.

I'm being serious, do you know what the purpose of it is or are you going to beat around the bush some more? Do you really have an Evo too?
This is a discussion on Hi every one within the New Member Hangout forums, part of the Community - Meet other Enthusiasts category; I'm being serious, do you know what the purpose of it is or are you going to beat around the ...
I'm being serious, do you know what the purpose of it is or are you going to beat around the bush some more? Do you really have an Evo too?
NO, I don't know what the purpose is and I don't have an evo.
Then tell me that its useless and if u think so then ur a tator.
So what kind of car do you really have?
You got me I drive a honda
why don't you go look up what a friggen BPV does and get back to us all.
if you drive a honda why do you come here?
BPV is a vertigo which is often induced while a patient turns over in bed, or gets in and out of bed. There hows that?
haha ladies ladies theres no need to fuss.
Brian if we want BOV's just for the noise than who cares? You can keep your stock one... and later when we do push more boost, than we will need them anyways, might as well have the cool noise for now.. it's personal preferrence. Also somoene on here told me that the stock one leaks even with the stock turbo... I think lol
Good thing your here Josh, lol. Plus I should get the uppipe this week and the downpipe is on backorder for about 4-5 weeks.
Hey chill out, Brian has had his fare share of WRXs. An aftermarket blow off valve is cool, go ahead and keep it. It could possibly weaken your cat in your up pipe and send metal particles thru your turbo and destroy it...STILL COOL? I had an HKS SSQV. It got annoying I sold it. An Intake will do nothing for your car, the stock box Ive heard is good for close to 400 crank horsepower. The factory BY PASS VALVE is good for 20 Psi. You will need to replace your turbo with a better one long before your BY PASS VALVE leaks.
Brian has an Evo.
DO you really have a WRX? dont be a ****.
Lead Wrench @ WTF Tuning, LLC
not if he is getting a COBB up-pipe it won't send metal into his turbo... Yeah so the intake is worthless... who cars?Originally Posted by LPPTundWRX
hey it's your money or your parents money, throw it away as you see fit.
I just noticed that bit about "someone told me the stock bov leaks with the stock turbo"
Someone told me an mbc set to 21 psi on the stock turbo should be my first mod!
It might be your parents money but we buy everything on our own. We all have our own opinions so let's forget it all.
sorry for attempting to help you spend your money intelligently.

Over the next two years, 58% of small physician practices plan to roll out electronic health records. And by 2014, the federal government wants more than half of all healthcare facilities to use EHRs.
To date, however, less than 20% of hospitals and 25% of physician practices have deployed EHR systems, and most of them would not meet the federal government's criteria for "meaningful use" of those systems, according to Karen Bell, chairwoman of the Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT), nonprofit organization whose mission is to accelerate the adoption of healthcare IT systems.
Perhaps the biggest obstacles for physicians and hospitals are the magnitude of many healthcare IT projects and the need to meet those "meaningful use" requirements from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. To help providers overcome those obstacles, public and private financing is available for EHR rollouts. Moreover, there are cost-effective ways of deploying the technology, and it may not even be necessary to rebuild an existing IT infrastructure to accommodate an EHR system. One option is to share the data center of another local healthcare facility that has a large IT support staff.
Nonetheless, even with financing and alternative deployment strategies at their disposal, hospitals and other providers that haven't started using EHR technology might want to wait.
"I know there are incentives out there... but the $44,000 or $65,000 you can get comes over a five-year period," Bell said. "If you haven't gone through the readiness process, gotten your staff ready and gotten everyone on board with what this will entail and put a project plan in place, then you'd probably do better to wait -- maybe even until 2013, when a whole new set of criteria comes out."
By waiting, clinics or physician practices would not only be able to meet more of the criteria for meaningful use of EHR systems, but they would also be able to deploy systems that meet their own criteria for patient care and administrative automation.
The ONC uses the CCHIT to test and certify EHRs. To date, the CCHIT has certified 66 EHR products, many of which have varying levels of sophistication.
The CCHIT also has the authority to certify homegrown EHRs. If a hospital builds out its own infrastructure and pieces the software modules together, the organization can remotely access servers and work with administrators to offer a certification specifically for that system, Bell said.
There's no question that EHR technology can benefit both healthcare providers and patients, experts agree. EHRs allow physicians to share test results, radiological images and other clinical information in near real time with patients and other physicians. They can also reduce administrative tasks associated with paper-based systems, and they will eventually help ensure that caregivers adhere to so-called evidence-based medicine, or the use of best practices for treatment.
At the same time, physicians who employ EHR systems will be able to more easily use wireless devices, such as tablet PCs and smartphones, at the bedside and from remote locations.
The most basic in-house EHR systems cost about $250,000, but depending on the size of the organization and the capabilities of the technology, the price tag can quickly grow into the millions for larger hospitals, according to Judy Hanover, an analyst at research firm IDC's Health Insights unit.
Under the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) of 2009, physicians who implement EHR systems and demonstrate that they are engaged in meaningful use of such systems can receive reimbursements of up to $44,000 under Medicare and up to $65,000 under Medicaid.
Physicians and hospitals that don't roll out EHR technology or don't prove that they are making meaningful use of it by 2015 face penalties in the form of reduced Medicare reimbursements.
There are three stages of meaningful use, as defined by federal officials. Doctors and hospitals now implementing EHRs do so under Stage 1 guidelines released this past summer. Stage 2 and Stage 3 guidelines are set to take effect in 2013 and 2015, respectively, with the final rules coming out about a year before they go into effect.
The criteria for Stage 1 focus on improving the quality, safety, efficiency and coordination of care, and on reducing health disparities. They also call for adequate privacy and security protections for patient health information.
There are about 25 Stage 1 meaningful use objectives that must be met. Among other things, a computerized physician order entry (CPOE) system must be used for at least 80% of all physician orders and 10% of hospital orders, real-time electronic drug and allergy alerts must be enabled, and at least 75% of all prescriptions written by a clinician must be transmitted electronically to a pharmacy.
Wait on it...
Most people think of software when they think of electronic health records, but the systems also require hardware, operational and technical support, broadband networks and wireless connectivity, Bell said. A successful EHR deployment also requires staff buy-in. "Believe it or not, there are still a lot of people who are not comfortable with typing," she said.
Dr. Tom Handler, a radiologist who's now a healthcare analyst at research firm Gartner Inc., said one of the greatest challenges in rolling out an EHR system is establishing what's called clinical governance, or guidelines for how physicians in a practice or in different departments in a hospital need to use the electronic data systems.
"How should you get the system up and running in a practice? Or, if it's a multichain hospital, how do you roll it out to all [your] hospitals ... and ensure all the pieces and parts are rolled out in right order," Handler said. "So in some ways it's less about the technology and the hardware and the software and more about the culture and the governance and the management."
The CCHIT offers two EHR certifications. One is the CCHIT 2011 Ambulatory Certification, which goes to EHR systems with state-of-the-art security features, integrated components and the most robust patient care capabilities. The other certification, the ONC-ATCB, only verifies that an EHR system is capable of helping caregivers meet the meaningful use requirements.
Systems with the latter certification will help physicians and hospitals get federal incentive funds, but they may not offer a full set of features for patient interaction. And more than likely those systems' modules -- for billing, patient scheduling, image archiving and other tasks -- won't talk to each other, meaning they would have to be managed through separate interfaces.
Bell recommends choosing an EHR system with dual certification, which guarantees it will be state-of-the-art for patient care, practice management and meaningful use. Of the 66 EHR systems the CCHIT has certified as meeting meaningful use criteria, 30 have dual certification, Bell said.
"A certified product gives you all the functionality, interoperability [and] state-of-art security... for patient care," she said. "But ... you need to teach all your staff in the process. It can't just be a physician decision.
Which EHRs to use
One way to defer the cost an EHR rollout is to choose the software-as-a-service (SaaS) option, where a vendor runs the applications in its own data center while offering caregivers the EHR functionality over secure networks.
Handler said physicians and hospitals need to have a clear understanding of what they're buying if they go the SaaS route. Most vendors that say they have SaaS offerings actually sell hosted services. The difference? In the SaaS model, software resides on servers in a vendor's data center that is shared by multiple customers. It's most often not customizable, but rather a one-size-fits-all product. A hosted service means the vendor sets up a physical infrastructure with customized services for your environment.
Of the eight major enterprise-class EHR vendors that Gartner covers in its research-- Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Cerner, Epic Systems, GE Healthcare, McKesson, MEDITECH and Siemens -- none uses a true SaaS model. All offer hosted services.
Other EHR SaaS vendors include, eClinicalWorks, Ingenix, AthenaHealth, Greenway and NextGen Healthcare.
Typically, providers that choose a SaaS-based EHR system pay an upfront start-up charge followed by a per-physician monthly subscription fee. According to Handler, a good rule of thumb is an organization should not pay more than $500 per physician for a hosted EHR system. And depending on how badly a vendor wants your business, you could end up paying much less.
"The larger vendors offer more in terms of financing options than others," said IDC's Hanover.
For example, GE Healthcare can leverage its $50 billion sister division, GE Capital, to offer financing packages. A smaller vendor, such as Greenway Medical Technologies, might be able to offer more personalized service, but it uses a third-party leasing partner for its financing.
Jim Corrigan, vice president and general manager of GE Healthcare IT, said his company charges on a per-physician basis, with the fee varying depending on the terms of the service level agreement, which covers things such as practice management, connectivity to labs, insurance payments and billing systems. The bottom line is that GE Healthcare IT charges $3,000 and $6,000 per doctor in upfront costs and $300 and $600 per physician each month.
"We're also going to experiment on our SaaS model by upping the monthly fee and reducing the upfront fee," Corrigan said.
Like other large EHR vendors, GE Healthcare also offers a number of financing programs, such as a zero-down, zero-payments-until-2012 option. The benefit of that financing option, which GE calls the Stimulus Simplicity plan, is that a clinic can deploy an EHR now and then get qualified for meaningful use reimbursements before paying out of pocket.
Alternatives to vendor SaaS
While the SaaS model is attractive because it offers lower start-up, operational and maintenance costs, it does often involve vendor lock-in.
"There's no portability to [a SaaS-based EHR system]," said Bell. "If a company goes out of business, or if you decide to move your records from one EHR and go to another, there most likely will be issues with getting the data out of where it's residing and moving it to somewhere else."
Bell also points out that there are hidden upfront costs many users forget to consider with a SaaS EHR setup. They include, for example, the costs of installing the proper networks and ensuring that the new software will work with your existing practice management system.
"These are all things that have to be considered," she said.
For Columbia Memorial Hospital in Hudson, N.Y., unexpected costs came from the need to upgrade remote physician practices from Windows 2000 to Windows XP servers, and from the need to get wireless and broadband networks installed. The hospital is located in a rural area, so getting adequate bandwidth is difficult. Most of the remote clinics were running fractional T1 lines or DSL virtual private networks with 1.5KB/sec. download and 512KB/sec. upload speeds. The hospital needed 768KB/sec. bidirectional capacity to handle the additional data traffic that came with an EHR system.
At one clinic with four physician practices, the hospital was forced to run a 10Gbit/sec. fiber optic line. The project required the use of "several carriers," said Michael LaForge, Columbia Memorial's network administrator .
LaForge said his hospital considered using a SaaS offering for itself, but the board decided it wanted control over the information, hardware and software. Having control can be costly, though. Without putting an exact price on the project, LaForge said it cost millions of dollars.
"I think in the end, we were a little surprised what the costs were. Not only was it expensive to get in, but then you have the ongoing costs. You figure in 26 practices and remote sites, and it adds up fast," he said.
LaForge said hospitals not only have to figure in monthly license fees, but also have to pay for maintenance and support for things like tablet PCs, laptops, smartphones, scanners and even fax lines, which some physicians insisted on even though they could fax documents electronically.
Columbia Memorial's CIO, Cathy Crowley, was able to secure a significant amount of state grant money to help defray the cost of the EHR rollout by offering to share the hospital's data center with physician practices that aren't affiliated with Columbia Memorial.
Under the state's HEAL New York grant program, the 190-bed hospital was able to afford a virtualized cloud computing network that serves 200 clinicians at 26 clinics, laboratories and group practices in the Hudson River Valley.
The hospital set an aggressive six-month timetable for implementing the EHR system because it had to meet grant deadlines. "Normally, I'd advise you to spread it out some, because we didn't have time to learn from one or two implementations before we moved on to the next one," Crowley said.

Yeah honestly, the aftermarket and reproduction world is a world I don't want to be a part of anyway. So it wouldn't bother me in the least. There is way too much you can do the old school ways.
Yes your truck much like my 48 Chevy were the bastard step child of hot rodding for years. There was a time when NO ONE was rodding these trucks. So it has taken a long time for them to be "accepted" at all, they were THAT much of a outcast. But to tell you the truth, I have always loved them because of that. They aren't a good rig to restore and sell or something like that, but for your own personal use and enjoyment they are so cool because there aren't as many as other cars. My Chevy has grown so much it is super common place though. My brother use to joke literally had jokes about repro parts for my truck joking about someone making fiberglass fenders for them. Hell, they have complete STEEL cabs for them now! Repro frames, beds, it is mind blowing what is available for these trucks.
Yours still hasn't caught on that much, and that's a good thing, you won't see 22 of them at the next meet! It's fun having something a little different.
Have fun with it and rod on!

Welcome to the DeVault (and variants) DNA website!
This project began as a way of researching DeVault lines but it quickly became apparent that the surname is interconnected with other similar sounding surnames. Some may be related to my line of DeVaults but many are not. Sometimes the surname that our ancestors had prior to coming to America, became lost in translation once their language became English. For many of the project members on this project - that would mean French or German, and possibly other languages as well. This has become a project page for all these surnames to connect via the YDNA test results that project members submit.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask me or David Dewalt (project administrators).

Australia saidIt happened to me once, lost video game music I was just about finished with, and had to redo everything from scratch. I paid $400 just to have a recovery house evaluate the drive, they said it was unrecoverable. If I could have, i would have gladly paid the $2000 to recover my files but it wasn't an option. The client wasn't very happy and neither was I. Needless to say, I'm much better about backing up data after that experience!:)
Lost everything on my harddrive
It transpired when I went to pick up the machine, from Apple tech ( different guy ) he gave me back my old harddrive no quibble.
I said, the other teh guy said I am not allowed it back. He said that is because ( between you and I ) that as techs we get $10 commission for each part we recover when swapping out parts. I was pissed !!
That dick gave me all that grief over a $10 buck commission ! So now we will try and recover data from the HD and hey ho.
My biggest issue now, is having re set up Sublime and Transmit. I download file using transmit, andit saves to downloads folder and not opens in Sublime. So now I have to locate the file, open with sublime, save then drag file from downloads to transmit.
Fark if I only I could remember how to set everything up
Australia said
joshhunsaker saidWelcome to Australia ! lol Everything costs twice as much. Plus APPLE AU have a policy you cannot have your old HD back, they flatly refuse.
That's a pretty ridiculous amount for a 1tb hard drive!!!
I remember that the Adobe's products have way much higher prices than US and Europe, that sucks.
There are some HD recovery software which can restore data from damaged hd.
Sorry to hear that happened. I'm going to double check my backups now just in case
WebSmacker said
Sorry to hear that happened. I'm going to double check my backups now just in case
You know, I am still more in shock at the fact I hadnt backed up anything. Lets hope no one else is like me ( a tit ) lol
You're not the only one. My brother's hard drive crashed 6 months ago and I couldn't recover the data. It's pricey to send it to a lab to recover. He lost 5 years worth of pictures and videos of his 2 kids – really sucked.
I think it'd be a wise thing to back up your most valued files both online and offline. That way, you can use one source to cover the other in case something happens. Also try and back up your irreplaceable files in more than one source, both online and offline so that you won't have to rely on the services of a company that for all intents and purposes sees you as an open wallet. Where I shop for electronics, you can get a 1 TB HD for about $120. Get 3 of them and you're well equipped to deal with a computer casualty, provided you back up your data that is.
Also, I've noticed a trend in many of the larger corporations such as Apple, Adobe, Microsoft, etc, to put profits first and the needs of the customer second, if not somewhere far below. Perhaps it's time we as customers began to explore other, smaller, friendlier, more helpful companies which do an excellent job in whatever they specialize in. I think one major reason why larger companies, generally speaking, tend to put the needs of the company above the needs of the customer, is because they've grown so comfortable where they are that they don't feel it's necessary to tend to the customer's needs anymore.
If you're making record profits, what need is there to put forth the effort to make the customer happy? They can just make a cop-out suggestion along the lines of "we don't do repairs, you'll just have to buy a new one" as if what they're selling has no real value to them. Common sense would tell you to stuff Mr. Customer Service Agent and take the thing that needs a repair to someone who actually does offer repairs if the first person or company you talk to doesn't. Come to think of it, if they don't even value their own products enough to provide decent repairs for them when they break, should people reward them for their indifference by going with their suggestion and buying a new one? People invest their time, money and their lives into their electronics and losing something like that can be painful and frustrating to say the very least.
In a world filled with substandard service from some of the largest corporations in the world, people have a marvelous opportunity to start their own business and excel in it by learning from the mistakes of those who tend to take their customers for granted and restoring some order to a world full of monkey business. To conduct their business so that not only the company makes a profit, but all the customers as well through what they're getting for their money.
Damn… just starting a better backup plan myself after reading this.
I mean, I do backup some small stuff to dropbox from time to time.. at least work in progress.
But this unlimited online backup solutions are interesting. Might be worth for the videos/pictures/etc.. because I already had some external HD die on me also…
Hope you recover fast from that 'Australia! I know it's not easy…
Australia said
... and then it stopped
HD on my mac has just committed suicide. The doctor at Apple Mac center, said [ FAILED ] ...
Prognosis, new 1tb hd for $327.00Kicking myself I didnt back anything up that will bloody teach me
lol 2 weeks ago same problem here, just ordered a ssd, problem solved

Answering the call to arms

Marcel Caux, 105
World War I (1914-18)
After putting his age up to enlist after the Anzacs evacuated Gallipoli in December 1915, 17-year-old Marcel Caux fought in the Somme with 20th Battalion as an infantry private.
He was wounded in the left ankle at the bloody 1916 battle of Pozieres fighting "huge Prussian guards, all six-foot, 20-stone giants and very frightening for a little boy like me".
He was patched up, then wounded in the rightelbow at Hangard Wood .
After more repairs, he was so badly wounded in the left knee at the 1918 battle of Villers-Bretonneux that he was never able to bend his leg again.
Today, at 105, the Chatswood veteran is the world's last known survivor of Pozieres, one of the worst battles of World War I.
Caux was refused an invalid pension because the welfare officer said that if he could still stand he did not need one. So, at 19, he tore up all the photographs and records of his fighting and went bush.
He taught himself carpentry, and for the next 80 years kept his World War I experiences a secret, telling his family wife Doris and son Marcus that his leg had been damaged in World War II.
But in 1998, after Doris's death, the French Government awarded him the Legion of Honour. Since then he has joined Anzac Day ceremonies.
Caux is opposed to Australia fighting foreign wars such as Iraq; the 61,720 Australians killed in World War I taught him that.
"We learnt at Gallipoli what a mistake it was to fight other people's wars on foreign shores. We paid a terrible price there and in the Somme. We should only defend our own shores."

San Francisco • Isaac Barnett took a bold step last year: He told teachers and classmates at his Kansas high school that the student they had known as a girl now wanted to be accepted as a boy.
His close childhood friend, who also identified as transgender, was ready to reveal his secret, too.
With the administration's blessing, a segment featuring the two friends talking about their transitions aired in the school's classrooms, alongside a basketball team promotion and a feature on the importance of the arts.
"I didn't get any questions or hate or put-downs or anything like that," said Barnett, now 18, adding that they called him Isaac immediately — a drama-free coming-out that would have been extraordinary in schools a decade ago.

Hey guys.
I'm looking for some help. I recently installed my invidia divorced wastegate catted downpipe with my Q300 exhaust. I loaded my stage 2 map with my cobb accessport and went for a drive. I have been driving for about two weeks with no problems until today. As I was driving, my check engine light turned on, along with the traction control light illuminating and the cruise control blinking. My boost levels seemed appropriate for the map that I was running (Cobb OTS Stage 2 93). Once I got home, I checked the faults and got P0141 and P0037. I reset the ECU via the accessport and also tried reflashing the same map for the hell of it. I went for a drive, varying my driving style to see if the fault would reappear but it hasn't yet. I'm assuming because I reset the ECU that the light may just not kick in for a little while. I know it could be plausible to have had a o2 sensor go bad.... but at 26000 miles?? Has anyone had this happen to them? What was your fix? Anybody have any advice? I'm gonna lift the car up tomorrow to check the wire and clip for the o2 sensor but until then any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance guys.

Sarah Mangold: 'Writing, Moving, Practicing'
Things were astounding enough/the passenger ferry/the steeple/enough to make you die of astonishment
—Sarah Mangold, from "I meant to be Transparent"
To be transparent, if it is a material, is to let light pass through so objects behind are made visible. To be transparent is also to transmit heat without altering bodies. To be transparent in computing is, (I imagine), a world where computers are so present and so invisible that the individual is not aware how problems have been solved. Transparent is "shining through" from the Latin transparere. It is to "appear."
The appearance or disappearance is shot through with motion. Invisible or visible is a movement that may alter perception or position. What is a poem whose borders are meticulously redrawn, a poem that is self-consciously a process of processing what it is not seeing? A poem that keeps an eye on the periphery might require a form of astonishment or stillness, or a doubled vision, to catch the fleeing or the fleeting in its particulars.
In her post last month on National Poetry Month (NPM) Daily, Sarah Mangold wrote, "For the last five years, I head in to work an hour early and spend that hour in a nearby coffee shop writing. Everyday. Even if I'm not in the middle of some spectacular idea, I'm writing, moving, practicing."
These sentences have lingered in me for the last few weeks. They lead me to her work. I read her poems in fragments on a computer screen because that is how I move through poems these days, five minutes here or two minutes there. This form of reading does not follow the kind of intention that Sarah Mangold maintains in "writing, moving, practicing" but it makes me think about the appearance and disappearance of "things" in poems. I'm trying to think about the perceptive eye, the roving body, and the intention that is practiced as I look to versions of the world around. My eyes are crossed in peripheral terms, peripheral times, if that makes sense.
One speaks of transparency and perhaps the images that arise signal, in time, to silhouettes, traces, and refraction. The truth of transparency is also the untruth in what falls to the sidelines, and what remains in the shadows.
magistrate building/sitting neatly as adults/the body as message writes Sarah Mangold in the same poem.
One must, in reading these lines, develop a slow-motion tactic, so that one floats with the edges guiding the eye. The static is an illusion or is it a frame of reference to something else? There is very little distance between body and the bodies. I have already admitted to reading with a fragmented eye. What is revealed is astonishingly moving, and as clear as language permits, as clear as one can be when things appear or are brought out of the shadows of illuminated bodies.
An emphasis falls on silhouettes/trenches lilies/substituting for an original body and voice.
—Sarah Mangold, from "I meant to be transparent"

Meeting friends for dinner is the best way to kick off a night on the town, and the easiest way to determine which ones exist only in your head. See if anyone talks to Fred the astronaut with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $20 for $40 worth of Italian cuisine for dinner for two
- $39 for $80 worth of Italian cuisine for dinner for four or more
The bistro's menu explores continental-fusion cuisine and classic Italian dishes such as linguine with prawns ($18.95), grilled lamb chops ($25.95), and prosciutto-stuffed chicken breast ($17.95).
Stelle Bistro
The scent of basil and oregano wafts through the air at Stelle Bistro as waiters bustle about, delivering steaming plates of spaghetti bolognese and fettuccine. The cuisine celebrates classic Italian dishes with a distinct focus on fresh fish and gourmet ingredients such as truffle oil and prosciutto. Amid a culinary playground of hardwood and warm hues, spinach salads or the creamy mozzarella and crisp tomatoes of a caprese salad raise the curtain on dinners. Next, the manicotti di zucca takes the stage, wrapping a blend of butternut squash, walnuts, and brown butter in cannelloni, whereas the braised veal steak simmers in a red-wine sauce. The bistro's marine fare, meanwhile, represents the breadth of oceanic life with salmon, sole, mussels, and vegetables harvested from the gardens of Atlantis.

Me, Patty and BenG took him out in February. We wrapped his body in a carpet and threw him over the docks into the ocean. But, first we covered his body in DE and Grape seed oil, and I think he smothered or something. I can't remember exactly. Since then, we have not heard from him.<quoted text>
Vann why haven't you posted anything since Feb 2010??? Where are you I would like some advice are you still there??? No updates, that doesn't seem good to me, maybe I should take an alternate route. Please respond.
His solution would probably work for the vanilla variety of human scabies. And, also, if you are young enough with a good immunity, but, for us long time sufferers.... well, we just had to do it. Sorry.

GOP Debate Tourney
Now that college football finally had a tournament, it's time the GOP presidential primary debates follow suit. Think how much more compelling it would be to watch these candidates go head-to-to-head in a winner-take-all system than watching way too many people on stage talking over one another for just a few more seconds of face time. Imagine the possible combinations of candidates on stage going at it!
This current debate would come out looking something like this (I used the Real Clear Politics poll averages).
Sorry the image came out grainy. Here are the names from top to bottom:
8 Kasich vs 9 Paul, winner would face 1 Trump
5 Bush vs 5 Gilmore, winner would face 4 Carson
7 Fiorina vs 10 Huckabee, winner would face 2 Cruz
6 Christie vs 11 Santorum, winner would face 3 Rubio
No candidates will be able to gripe about not getting on stage (though perhaps Paul would still skip if he knew Trump were waiting on the other side).
There would, of course, have to be predefined rules for how each round will be scored. Perhaps different topics will be covered each round. Each match-up would only have about 5-10 minutes, depending on how long they want the debate to go. And at the end, we would actually have a declared winner (though it will always be disputed).
Would you watch the GOP Debate Tourney? What would you implement in the tournament?

VIIBRE - The Teaching of Innovation
Undergraduate Research
At VIIBRE we are deeply engaged in innovative education by combining undergraduate students' natural thirst for practical knowledge with opportunities to participate in cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research as part of the Systems Biology and Bioengineering Undergraduate Research Experience (SyBBURE) , a year-round, multiyear program funded by Vanderbilt alumnus Gideon Searle. Through SyBBURE, a select group of Vanderbilt undergraduates has the distinctive opportunity to explore science at one of its most promising and exciting frontiers – the intersection of systems biology and bioengineering – where the traditional lines of disciplines and fields blur and the work of transinstitutional, interdisciplinary collaboration and discovery takes place. The Searle gift was made with the aim of providing undergraduate students with mentored experiences in advanced scientific investigation with some of the University's leading research and teaching faculty, an objective that dovetails with the teaching mission of VIIBRE: to enhance the role of the biophysical and biochemical sciences and bioengineering in educational programs in biology and medicine at all levels.
SyB BURE students become adept at a wide assortment of skills important for systems biology, including methods of making BioMEMS devices; computational modeling of flow, diffusion, and heat transfer with MATLAB and COMSOL; the basics of cell culture; microscopy and image processing; and most important, effective communication of their results to the broader scientific community. Much of the technical training has been incorporated at the request of the students, who realize as they approach their research projects that certain quantitative tools are needed, so while some aspects of the training are dictated by the mentors, the students have an active say in what things are important to learn and know. The students are also active participants in scientific meetings, including BMES, EMBS, microTAS, and q-bio, and have helped to organize and run workshops at many meetings. To date, twelve papers published in peer-reviewed journals and four patents and patent applications include SyBBURE students as co-authors and co-inventors.
In its broadest sense, SyBBURE gives students a larger view of the needs and consequences of interdisciplinary science and the thrill of innovation. The program involves the students in the immediacy and relevance of systems biology and bioengineering – highly quantitative, analytical fields that together are enabled by tools, techniques, and theories from across the biological, medical, mathematical, engineering, and physical science disciplines – and it gives them the experience of working in teams and mentoring each other, of formulating problem-driven questions, and of developing new technology.
New Undergraduate and Graduate Courses
Since its inception, VIIBRE has worked to improve the undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral research experience through classroom and laboratory training and research. In support of these efforts, and in his role as the Gordon A. Cain University Professor, John Wikswo has offered two interdisciplinary classes designed to bring the School of Engineering, the College of Arts and Science, and the Medical School closer together: What is Life? , an Honors seminar that has been offered multiple times to both A&S and Engineering Honors students since its introduction in 2001, and a graduate course cross-listed in Biomedical Engineering, Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, and Physics, Physical Measurements in Biological Systems .
As part of the Whitaker Foundation/VIIBRE project ("Instrumenting and Controlling the Single Cell: An Educational Program in Biomedical Engineering"), the undergraduate BME curriculum was revised to create a track in Cellular Bioengineering and new classes in Biomaterials, Bioelectricity, and BioMEMS were implemented. Franz Baudenbacher built upon a seminar developed by John Wikswo to create a new course in BioMEMS: Principles and Applications of BioMicroElectroMechanical Systems , which provides hands-on microfabrication experience, and revised an existing course and laboratory in Biomedical Instrumentation . Baudenbacher and Wikswo have alternated the teaching of Bioelectricity and Biophysical Electrodynamics for the departments of Biomedical Engineering and Physics, respectively.
John Wikswo has offered a variety of special topics seminars, including Biophysics of Cellular Signaling and Control , Instrumentation for Automated Biology , Theoretical and Experimental Systems Biology , Systems Biology of Organs-on-Chip , and a new Honors seminar, Why is Biology Complex? .

A stoppage time goal from substitute Farid El Alagui put Brentford through to the second round of the Capital One Cup and consigned Dagenham and Redbridge to their seventh straight first-round defeat in the competition.
El Alagui came off the bench to score twice for the home side, who regularly looked below-par against Wayne Burnett's League Two outfit.
Brentford manager Uwe Rosler made 10 changes to the side that drew 1-1 with Port Vale on Saturday, including three debutants, but the unfamiliar eleven looked lost in the first half.
Dagenham, among the favourites in League Two to be relegated come May, soaked up Brentford's early pressure.
They led on 18 minutes after Josh Scott's low cross was diverted into his own net by on-loan Cardiff City defender Ben Nugent.
Nugent, voted Cardiff's young player of the season last term, looked nervous on his Bees debut, while Dagenham left-back Femi Ilesanmi had 37-year-old Javi Venta, a player with Champions League experience, figured out in the first half.
Brentford goalkeeper Jack Bonham, still reeling from his horror show on the last day of the season for Watford against Leeds United, was caught in no man's land from Gavin Hoyte's cross, and watched on as Scott's header crashed off the crossbar.
Brentford soon improved. El Alagui scrambled home the equaliser from six yards after Chris Lewington in the Dagenham goal had kept out two Brentford efforts.
And they were ahead just three minutes later, Martin Fillo tucking home low from just inside the area after gaps finally appeared in the Dagenham defence.
Dagenham's equaliser came from another goalkeeping error, with Bonham this time caught clinging to his near post for substitute Brian Woodall to head square to Scott, who slid home from six yards.
To the relief of the home crowd, Brentford won it after El Alagui's close-range header from Scott Barron's deep free-kick beat the scrambling Lewington.
Brentford (4-3-3): Bonham; Venta, O'Connor (Craig, HT), Nugent, Barron; Saunders, Reeves, Oyeleke (El Alagui, 59); Dallas, Hayes, Fillo
Subs not used: Button, Pierre, Adams, Clarke, Norris.
Goals: El Alagui 60, 90+2, Fillo 63
Dagenham and Redbridge (4-3-3): Lewington; Hoyte, Doe, Saah, Ilesanmi; Elito (Woodall, 72), Ogogo, Howell; Murphy, Scott, Reed
Subs not used: Connors, Seabright, Bingham, Obafemi, Dennis, Shields.

327 in my 50 chevy truck?
OK guys...
I'm thinking about putting a 327 together for my hotrod; I can get the engine for free (and it would have some sendimental value). I'm thinking dart iron eagle heads with a comp cam extreme energy roller cam with roller rockers, and an edelbrock performer RPM electric choke carb with vac. secondaries.
would this engine get decent MPG? my dyno numbers;
RPM's HP Torque
2000 147 385
2500 189 397
3000 276 413
4000 317 415
4500 352 410
5000 375 393
5500 380 363
6000 368 322
With a stock rearend, trans, your mileage would be pretty miserable, i would guess 12-15 mpg. Myself, budget minded, I'd go 70s Nova auto rearend, turbo 350 trans, tallest wheels and tires I could find for a decent price. Unsprung weight- tires, wheels, tire width would all be a factor. A Nova or Camaro subframe or Mustang 2 front suspension will lighten up the front and give more stopping power. Your truck is about as aerodynmic as a brick, you can't expect miracles but would definetely be a cool ride. Maybe around 18 mpg with something like this. good luck.
I ran a 327 in my vette and got around 12mpg had 355s in back with 275/60 tires, auto trans no a/c a lunati cam 650 holley and factory alum mid rise intake(1966)also used headders and 2.5 exhaust with zip mufflers now if I happened to be going down a long hill I might have gotten as much as 18mpg... but the biggest problem with mpg is ,and you will probably find also, is that my right foot is atleast 4 and a half sizes larger than the left foot...so my suggestion is install the gas pedal on the left and mpgs will rise
LOL - yea I kinda have a problem with that right foot thing too! :eek: actually if I could get around 15 MPG with this thing I'd be very happy (that is when I was driving it go get good milage).
I am building a 50 Chevy Panel truck in which I plan on using this combination, 327 with 350. I have already installed a Mustang front suspension and plan on using a GM 10 bolt rear, I have one so why not use it. Where did you come up with those dino figures? Sounds like the performance figures I am looking for. What cfm carb and what pistons did you use? Thanks, Jack
used desktop dyno 2000 - let me know what scenario's you want to try, and I will try it for you. send me an email.
Is the 327 a small journal crank or large journal?
I actually prefer the earlier 327 small journal crank engines, they have forged crankshafts while later 327's had large journal cranks that are cast. The cylinder casting #'s are important too. You might have a diamond in the rough with the right casting numbers. I think you will find that the 327 will surprise you with the power output. They have a better stroke / to rod ratio than a 350. 327's have a 4.00 inch bore by 3.25 inch stroke. If it is a small journal engine make sure you replace the rod bolts. The factory small rod bolts were weak for higher power ratings. Sounds like it's going to be a nice rod!
I'll have to check it out - I've been trying to get the casting # if the front, but I just can't read it good enough. I've got a few things I'm going to try to get it, and otherwise I will have to get it off the back of the engine after I pull it.
truck is a 66, and I'm sure the engine is original.

London Olympics faces "perfect traffic storm", report warns
LONDON (Reuters) - The opening weekend of the London Olympics in July has all the ingredients to whip up a 'perfect traffic storm', a report analyzing expected summer congestion levels in the capital warned on Wednesday.
The report by real-time traffic information providers INRIX predicted that Londoners faced a 33 percent rise in congestion levels while traffic on core network routes would slow to speeds of around 12 miles per hour.
The opening ceremony at the Olympic Stadium on Friday July 27 coincides with the end of school terms and start of one of the busiest holiday periods of the British summer.
The men's cycling road race, with Briton Mark Cavendish an early favorite to take the first home gold, follows on the Saturday on public roads through southwest London and into surrounding counties.
"One of the busiest holiday getaway weekends, the Olympic opening ceremony and the men's road cycling race is the perfect traffic storm," said the report's author Greg Hallsworth.
"Nearly 100,000 ticket-holders are expected at the opening ceremony, with tens of thousands of visitors anticipated at the live sites at Hyde Park and Victoria Park.
"This, combined with thousands of closed roads for the men's road cycling event will undeniably create huge stress on the UK's road networks."
INRIX predicted that journeys with an average travel time of an hour would take at least 12 minutes longer throughout Greater London for the duration of the Games. There would be even longer delays through known traffic hotspots.
"People travelling on the Core Games Network should plan for at least 20 minutes more for their journey," it added. Continued...

Report/gallery: Santa Cruz vs. Cota
Ringside by Francisco Salazar
Photography by "Big" Joe Miranda
Before he stepped inside the ring against unbeaten super bantamweight Leo Santa Cruz on Thursday night, Jose Angel Cota was announced with a record of 20-4, with 17 knockouts by the ring announcer. The bout sheet listed him as 15-4, with 11 knockouts, although Boxrec.com listed him as 8-4, with six knockouts.
Whatever record Cota had, did not make a difference, as Santa Cruz slowly broke him down in earning a third round stoppage victory before an almost-sellout crowd at the Commerce Casino in Commerce, Calif. . . . Click here for more

In Rio de Janeiro: Terras e Águas de Guanabara, published in 1945, Afrânio Peixoto said of Copacabana: "It is a singular mixture of city and beach, of skyscrapers and sand, of hotel palaces and casinos, of nude goddesses and naked Apollos, who bathe or drink cocktails…" In this walking tour you'll see that nothing is new under the sun.
Start your tour at (1) Hotel Copacabana Palace (Avenida Atlântica 1702; www.copacabanapalace.com.br), inspired by luxury hotels on the French Riviera and inaugurated in 1923. Rooms range from $575 (Deluxe City View) to $3,200 (Penthouse Suite, ocean view) and the guest book boasts such names as Albert Einstein, Carmen Miranda, Orson Welles, Princess Diana, and Bill Clinton. The Rolling Stones stayed here in 2006, performing a free concert for over one million fans on the beach out front. Visit the pool area, then leave the hotel and walk around back, where you'll see large black and white images of Copacabana in the 1920s and '30s mounted on the wall. Return to Avenida Atlântica and cross to (2) Copacabana Beach. Here you'll encounter "a democratic mix of apartment and favela dwellers, and tourists."—Madson Araújo, tour guide, www.tourguiderio.com
Turn right on the wave-patterned promenade and follow the beach. When you reach Rua Figueiredo Magalhães, turn right and walk three blocks to Rua Barata Ribeiro. Turn left and look for number 502, where you'll find (3) Modern Sound (Rua Barata Ribeiro 502; www.modernsound.com.br), Copacabana's best-known music store, founded in 1966. There, listen to new Brazilian releases and drink a cappuccino at the Allegro bistro. Then follow Rua Santa Clara back to the beach. Stroll along the promenade until you reach the end of the beach and see a bench with a (4) life-size bronze statue of Carlos Drummond de Andrade (Avenida Atlântica). This influential Brazilian poet lived in Rio, and often visited this stretch of Copacabana. At nearby Posto 6 you'll find (5) Bar dos Pescadores (Avenida Atlântica), a market where fishermen sell their catch after a night at sea.
Walk to the gated entrance of (6) Forte de Copacabana (Praça Coronel Eugênio Franco; www.fortedecopacabana.com). A chapel once stood on this point, housing a statue of Our Lady of Copacabana (from the Bolivian town on Lake Titicaca). The chapel was torn down in 1908 to build the fort, but the name still identifies the beach. Inside the fort (fee) visit the (7) Museu Histórico do Exército, which traces Brazilian military campaigns since the Empire, and have a snack at (8) Confeitaria Colombo, a branch of the famous pastry shop downtown. Finish your tour at the (9) Krupp cannons on the promontory. The largest has a range of 14 miles (23 kilometers) and is aimed at the Hotel Copacabana Palace. "This is one of our best views of Copacabana. You might as well be in a boat."— Madson Araújo.

Before a record-crowd of 92,020 at Sanford Stadium on Saturday, the Bulldogs (2-0) earned 25 first downs thanks a strong mix of the running and passing games, saw a possible breakout game from freshman tailback Michael Cooper and didn't turn the ball over once.
There were also some negatives that will have Georgia coach Mark Richt and his staff working overtime to correct before the Bulldogs' SEC opener this Saturday against South Carolina.
The most notable is the injury to junior flanker Fred Gibson, who pulled a hamstring while returning a kick with 2:09 left in the game.
Richt took the blame for Gibson's injury.
"The biggest disappointment for me was Fred Gibson being in there returning kicks when we're up 29-10 and there's only a few minutes left," Richt said. "I knew Fred was in the game. I could kick myself. It should not have happened. You can beat me on that; I deserve it."
Gibson fielded a short kickoff and appeared to pull up lame before he was touched by Blue Raiders (0-2) defenders.
Richt said he didn't think Gibson (five catches for 81 yards) would be available this week for South Carolina.
The only consolation for the Bulldogs is that Georgia has other quality targets to throw the ball to. Reggie Brown finished the day with seven catches for 88 yards, while Damien Gary added five catches for 61 yards.
Richt also wasn't happy with Georgia's poor discipline on the field.
The Bulldogs committed 13 penalties in the first half alone en route to a school-record 18 for the game.
"I will say it was a good win," he said. "I wasn't real happy with the way we played the first half, especially the penalties. It's not a good sign of a disciplined football team. I do think we came back in the second half and played a better half of football."
"It was a mess," said quarterback David Greene. "That's the best way to put."
Georgia jumped ahead 3-0 on Billy Bennett's 35-yard field goal on the opening drive, but the Blue Raiders were able to tie the score, thanks to an effective ground game and penalties on the Bulldogs' defense before Brian Kelly tied the game with a 41-yard kick.
The Bulldogs looked more scattered on its second series. At one point, Georgia faced a third-and-32 on its own 37 thanks to a combination of penalties and good MTSU defense before punting it away.
But Georgia settled down somewhat after that as Cooper stepped into the forefront after starting tailback Tony Milton left the game in the second quarter with a bruised leg.
Greene (21-of-28, 267 yards) led the Bulldogs across 81 yards in 2:42 before Cooper scampered into the end zone from 8 yards out off a quarterback draw to give Georgia a 10-3 lead with 7:48 left in the first half.
Cooper finished the day with 12 carries for 90 yards and drew praise from his teammates.
"Cooper did a great job of hitting the holes," said Greene. "When Tony hurt (his leg), Cooper stepped in and did really well."
When Georgia moved to the MTSU 7 in the third quarter, the fans were calling for him to get the ball. Ultimately he did, scoring on a 3-yard run with 4:29 to go in the period, giving the Dogs a 20-3 lead.
"When you score like that, and there's perfect blocking on the play, it feels real good," said Cooper, who has been battling sickle cell anemia.
"I'm glad I got the offense rolling a little bit. It was a big game for the whole team. ... Today was a bit of a kick-start. It's a feeling I really can't describe."
Richt said he would have to see what Milton's condition was before deciding if Cooper would start against South Carolina. Cooper didn't hurt his case for more carries.
"He did a great job," Richt said. "We'll have to look at the film to see if he did as good a job with his blocking. I hope he did stick his head in on the right guy."
Ronnie Powell added seven carries for 31 yards and a touchdown in relief of Cooper.
The Bulldogs settled down on both sides of the ball in the second half. In addition to making fewer mistakes on offense, they held the Blue Raiders to just three first downs after halftime.
MTSU's lone big play in the second half was a 71-yard touchdown pass from Andrico Hines to Kerry Wright with 2:09 left in the contest after most of Georgia's starters had been pulled.
"We didn't make any adjustments," said junior defense end David Pollack. "We just executed. We had a lot of mental mistakes in the first half. We had to get back to fundamentals.
"We played all right, but it was far from great. We had too many missed assignments and too many mental errors. That does not take any thing away (from MTSU). They were a good football team."
Things now get more competitive for the Bulldogs with the start of SEC play.
"We haven't scored (an offensive touchdown) touchdown against (South Carolina) the last two years," Greene said. "We've got our work cut out for us."

New Ventures 2/17/12
This will likely be my last post from MB Wealth as I have chose to close my brokerage. I am in the final stages of a new employment contract with a large Commodity firm in Chicago. This is goodbye temporarily but I will be back in the coming weeks. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me via email or telephone if you want to continue to have access to my comments. Crude is approaching the $104 level as forecast in recent posts. We've advised clients to start liquidating longs after an $8 run in the last two weeks I think all the activity in Iran has taken Crude too high too quick...just my opinion. The fact that the distillates are not trading higher alongside Crude also supports my thesis that prices may be over stretched. Natural gas has picked up steam the last two sessions poised to trade above the 40 day MA for the first time in 5 months. A trade above $2.85 in March that holds would convince me a bottom is in and longs are trade able. Until then I have no interest. Stocks are trading near four year highs but probing to pick a top was non eventful this week as a false break down was exactly that false. I am uncomfortable advising longs and will not try calling a top again. Stand clear until we see consecutive settlements below the 9 day MA. In the Dow at 12835 and in the S&P at 1348. After five positive weeks gold had closed lower the last two weeks. I remain in the camp that prices come lower...as I said yesterday a settlement over $1740 would signal higher ground and to cut losses on bearish trade. Silver has traded lower seven out of the last eight sessions even though prices are only $1/ounce off their recent highs I see more downside. Next support in March is seen at $31.50 followed by $29.75. Copper was lower everyday this week losing nearly 7% in that time frame. I'm expecting a additional 4-6% correction which would complete a 50% Fibonacci retracement on the move in the last five months...trade accordingly. Finally a positive showing in coffee after seven straight losers. DO not expect much more than a bounce before the onslaught resumes. Live cattle continues to march higher...unfortunately without my clients on board. We have been bullish for months but jumped off this train but premature. Clients wait for a pullback to get long. Lean hogs also were slight gainers running into resistance at the same level that capped further upside weeks ago. On a trade back near 88.00 cents in April we suggest probing longs. Buyers are emerging in grains but until prices correct I am a spectator with clients. The Yen should continue lower but all other crosses appear to be consolidating so I see no long or short opportunities at the moment...move to the sidelines. Looking at longer term (weekly and monthly) charts in the Yen this could just be the beginning.

I read a story that a hypnotherapist convinced a client that she had a gastric band, which curbed her appetite, inducing weight loss. Is this true, and what are the dangers?
A colleague who uses hypnosis in her practice tells me this case hasn't been reported in medical journals, which makes it hard to judge, but in theory it is possible. Bear in mind, though, that we vary widely in our reaction to hypnosis, from the unsusceptible to the highly responsive. And there are drawbacks. For example, strange as it may seem, you could develop the unwanted symptoms produced by gastric banding, and even suffer some of the complications, despite not having a band in place. The brain isn't simple in its responses to hypnosis, which is why my colleague recommends that no one should undertake this lightly, and that you should use only a fully qualified clinical hypnotherapist. For more information about hypnosis, get in touch with the National Office of the British Society for Clinical and Academic Hypnosis (0844 884 3116).
I'm 16 and for about a month I've had problems with my neck. It began with a crackling sound around the ear when I turned my head to the left. My GP looked inside my ear and said it was fine, but my neck still creaks. What can I do?
Please stop worrying. Most necks creak when their "owners" turn their heads. This is just a noise that's made as the top two vertebrae (spinal bones) in the neck move relative to the base of the skull above and to the vertebrae below them. You are simply more sensitive to the noises since you noticed them for the first time. As you get used to them, you will notice them less and less. Anxiety about them makes you more aware of them. They are not related to arthritis or to degeneration. As proof of that, many years ago radiologists tried to relate creaky necks to x-ray appearances of disease of the vertebral joints – they couldn't. There were people with noisy necks and no sign of disease, and others with a lot of disease and silent necks. Try to look upon your creaks as similar to cracking knuckles, and then forget all about them.

An event hosted by the New America Foundation on Friday delved into some of the new ways being proposed to ameliorate the thorny problem of student-loan debt. Miguel Palacios, assistant professor of finance, participated in a panel discussing problems in the current system of federally backed loans and the challenges of using private capital to help the nation reach its goal of increasing college-completion rates. The panel was also covered by Diverse.

Who do I contact about a suspiciously high credit card fee? Sadly, I set up our credit card processing 10 years ago, and cannot even remember who I went through to get it going.
You should find contact information on your monthly Credit Card Settlement Summary report.
Well, that is a bit confusing. I did find my file of where I set up our credit card processing. Previously, I went to www.surepaymanager.com to find my statements. That website now takes me somewhere else, and my old logon info doesn't work. Any ideas?
As un update- I emailed the last company which had a site I could access for this information. This is what I was told:
Please be advised all Peachtree Merchants were migrated to Verus payment gateway since 01/28/2008. Store number XXX is closed since the migration. Please contact Verus at 877-407-4001 for inquiries about reporting website that is similar.
That phone number has been disconnected....
Call Sage Payment Services at call 1-866-267-4402.
Were you able to get this resolved? We are in a similar situation. We setup processing in 2002 through Peachtree, and seemed to have been dropped through the cracks. I've posted about it on here before. I've talked to Peachtree, BofA, and First Data, and no one can find our account, even with the merchant account numbers directly from them. It's crazy, and unprofessional, that I can not find out any information on how to issue a credit card refund. I have login information from yourpay.com, which is now FirstData. It doesn't work, and like I said no one seems to be able to help.
Fortunately our transactions are business to business, and I have only had one situation in which I needed to issue a refund. We do not process credit cards very often, maybe a couple times a week, but it sure feels uncomfortable not knowing, and not being able to find out, the information when I needed it.
*** e-mail I received from Sage Payment Solutions yesterday. There is an 800 # at the bottom. It is the same number that I have to call for help on the virtual terminal. As far as I know, all Peachtree credit card processing has gone through Sage Payment Solutions for a couple of years now. ***
As part of our commitment to our principles of agility and simplicity, Sage Payment Solutions is excited to launch our new Sage Virtual Terminal that will allow you to manage MOTO as well as card present transactions and much more! Beginning February 21, 2011, you can take advantage of all of the new features* including, but not limited to:
Swipe capabilities
Quick Actions section on Home Page which allows inputting a transaction with just customer name and credit card info
Quick Actions section on Home Page which also allows for quick search by name, account number, order number, amount, reference or approval code during a specified period
Customizable receipts using pre-defined templates
More graphical and detailed overview of transaction history and payment type
Your URL for the new Virtual Terminal is https://www.sagepayments.net/sagevirtualterminal. Your ID and Password are the same ID and Password that you use for your existing Virtual Terminal. Your existing database, including recurring groups and schedules, will automatically transfer to your new Virtual Terminal. You currently can access both your existing Virtual Terminal as well as the new Virtual Terminal through April 20, 2011; beginning April 21, 2011, you will only have access to your new Virtual Terminal.
We are working to ensure a smooth transition and a better, faster, more robust processing experience for you. If you have questions or need additional information, please contact Virtual Support at email@example.com or 877-470-4001.
Thank you.
I was trying to integrate Peachtree with credit card processing option and it is very disappointing with the customer service I am getting and I was told not to call in the future.
We are are multimillion $ company wanting to start a new small company. We allready have a credit card processing company and I was asking our current credit card company for a fee quote for our new company and I was telling them we use Peachtree for the new company for now and whether we could integrate the S/W with our old credit card processing. The sales rep who was working with our company called Peachtree credit card processing when I was on line and asking questions whether we could use a third party to integrate with Peachtree. The representative who answered the call Richard started to explain the process and gave me a fee quote. I said the lady who called you who was on line has given me a fee quote and Richard wanted me to fax him the fee quote to match it. I faxed the information and Richard send me an e-mail reply. Then I called and asked him whether he could give me a written fee quote since I knew there were more fees than what was listed on the e-mail. When I called I was treated with disrespect saying I used another competitor at the same time on phone and did not want to listen to me. When I called the main line to make a complain I was told we know the story and please do not call us in the future. Is this the way company does business I am a CPA and a professional I will never recommend your services to any one in the industry. I cannot speak to a manager or a supervisor? Is this the way you treat your customers?
Hi Shiamal,
You cannot use a third party unless they are a Sage Payment Solution ISO. SAGE PAYMENT SOLUTIONS IS THE ONLY CREDIT CARD PROCESSING SERVICE THAT WILL WORK WITH PEACHTREE. Many credit card processors will tell you different but they are just wrong. Ask them for a remote demo to show you how it works with Peachtree and you will never hear from them again!
It sounds like you are looking for a written quote. Is this correct? If so, to get the quote you need to start with an application. From there, your company will be denied or approved credit card services. If approved, then they will offer you rates.
Best Business Strategies is an ISO for Sage Payment Solutions. I don't know your issues exactly but if you want to contact us, we MAY be able to help you.
I am a reseller of Sage Payment Solutions and cannot speak for Sage but I am sorry you feel you were not treated in a business like manner.
Shirley (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Same problem here. I have used yourpay.com, mymerchantview, and more recently myclientline.net. I no longer receive statements with credit card fee information, and no longer have a valid login with any of these services. The Peachtree website does not have fee information as far as can tell. I have reapplied to myclientline again and will see if I hear from them. I must say that American Express merchant services does have a very good website with fee information, but most of our customers use Visa or MC.
I will take your credit card application and submit it to Sage for processing. I will need copies of three prior months statements and some other information. I will discuss this on the phone when you call.
My goal is to try to get you a better rate than what you already have. I hate paying for credit card service too; however, if you are going to grow your business, it is a necessary evil.
By using Sage Payment Solutions Credit Card Services, you will be able to accept payments using your Peachtree software. All credit card numbers are locked in a "Trustwave" vault protecting you from Credit Card fraud and making you PCI compliant. The next time the customer calls, you just "PROCESS" the order because you have the information on file in the Trustwave vault! This allows you to process sales faster and safer. Your customers will love the ease of the payment system.
Here is a link to our website. http://bestbusinessstrategies.net/credit-card-solutions-ezp-27.html

A Steam Bath Generator Delivers the Steam To your Shower
http://steamspa.com/ Today steam tub showers are actually understood as something that can highly enhance the beauty within your home-décor, besides delivering you having a great fun-filled journey to a stress-free bath. A hot shower soothes just about every aspect of one's entire body so you would experience like there exists nothing at all a lot more comfy than possessing a sauna bath and possibly, you'll not would like to get out of the shower enclosure. But all of this is not really possible with no generator that's the core portion of a steam shower.
Which has a acceptable generator you can entirely makeover your current shower installations by changing it right into a steam shower. Whichever product continues to be useful for the development of the shower enclosure, a generator is always required to make the h2o vapour. The generator is usually mounted outside the house or close by the shower, but hardly ever within the device alone. For proper set up of a device you must join a offer of water into the steam generator's consumption portal in addition to a stream pipe or vent from the generator to your shower by itself. Apart from, you may be considered a require an electrical link to run the steam tub generator.
The placement from the generator, for a few, according to their creating or residence structure, will not be an easy process. The unit might be set up within the basement, from the attic, inside a vanity cabinet or other this kind of locations. But whatsoever be the area, it should have an appropriate drainage procedure in addition to accessibility as within a service doorway and space all around it for servicing. There may be a vapour head or heads which might be set up in just the shower enclosure, with which the unit is linked. This head(s) serves the aim of spreading out the steam in to the shower enclosure. The area where the vapour generator is set up need to be an insulated place if in the cold climate as this could assist with it is price tag effectiveness.
But ahead of the installation with the generator, you will need to acquire this vital component to start with. For buy, you might must know the specs on the generator and match that to the necessities. You'll want to understand about your shower enclosure or place dimension. What exactly are definitely the compatibility things that ought to be looked after?
o Dimension of the shower enclosure.
o The enclosure materials, with which it's crafted from.
o Expense components (assistance time period, capacity, added options).
Aside from the above mentioned typical variables there are certain situation particular elements like, an iron tub, mud wall tile, whether the top is 8 feet or bigger on the shower region, selection and dimensions with the glass panels and outside walls. There are steam tub generators which have only fundamental or important functions that value under a device that has some added features similar to a timer for switching it on or off at a preset time, design aspects, gizmos (radio, stereo, cellphone, and so forth). The associated fee can be impacted in the event you receive the time saving unit, one with an vehicle flush process that routinely drain out the water following each individual session.

News about problems with the Obamacare website apparently is passé. After having a field day with the issue for a few months in 2013, the media by and large moved on. But problems with the website are far from over, as illustrated by an astonishing report from the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services.
The report focuses on the administration's inability to resolve 2.6 million of the 2.9 million "inconsistencies" flagged in applications for insurance coverage on Obamacare exchanges between October and December of 2013. In other words, 89 percent of the applications contained personal information that didn't square with other government records.
Worse, of the 330,000 inconsistencies for which there apparently is an explanation, the government has only resolved about 10,000 of them - fewer than 1 percent.
The inconsistencies involved information such as income, immigration status and whether a person is lawfully in the country, according to a story in The Washington Examiner. That information, when entered as part of the application process, is supposed to be checked against a massive federal database known as the "hub", which consolidates data from numerous federal agencies.
The fact that applicants' information doesn't match up with information in other government databases - or in some cases doesn't exist at all in those databases - raises all sorts of red flags. Fraud is of course the primary concern. The inconsistencies suggest some applicants may be receiving subsidies and/or coverage for which they do not qualify. A broader concern is that others are receiving subsidies in the wrong amounts, both too high and too low.
And there is also concern that the inconsistencies could wreak havoc in the 2015 tax filing season. Some people who belatedly learn they did not qualify for insurance and are not covered would be subject to fines under the individual mandate provision of the Affordable Care Act. Others could find themselves required to pay back subsidies that they did not qualify for.
Beyond those problems, there's the fact that the federal exchange software still just does not work very well in general. In one anecdote, the inspector general's report notes, "one marketplace cited situations in which infants and young children included on applications were erroneously identified as incarcerated."
There are similar problems in the state exchanges, the Examiner reports (no word if that includes Kentucky's). The inspector general said it received reports from 11 states disclosing 1.2 million inconsistencies as those states define them.
Technically the government is supposed to resolve inconsistencies within 90 days by requesting other documentation from the applicants and applicants are allowed to receive benefits during that period. However, a provision of Obamacare allows the 90 day resolution window to be waived by the government in 2014 and it appears that is what is happening in millions of cases.
The inspector general is pressing the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to create and make public a plan stating how and by what date it will resolve the inconsistencies, and to bolster its oversight of the state exchanges on the same front.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. If the launch of the website was any indication, the outcome is likely to be mass chaos later this year and early next. The media's decision to leave this story behind seems likely to prove premature.
