reading the manual from my wife's 2011 M37, apparently BMW skipped a step in the programming instructions, all Homelinks operate the same, it is helpful with another person as you have to push the learn button on the garage opener and run back to the car and push the coressponding button 3 times within 30 seconds, if you do it yourself it is great exercise , climbing the step ladder to push the button and running back to the car, in fact I didn't have to go to the gym that day as I must have run back and forth at least twenty times!

I've been away from the boards for a while, so I thought I should post an update on my Holiday Special Boba Fett. I've completed the upper body gear for the most part, just a few loose ends to tie up. I still need my scalps, but I think I have someone working on them right now. Then I also have to attach one more hose to the backplate (Pre-Pro style), but that hose is not pictured here.
The major thing I'm having trouble deciding right now is if the jet pack is too low. Do you guys think it is?
The collar armor is just bolted in place with whatever bolts I had around, I'll be making my collar studs soon.
Next major project is to get a helmet. I think I've decided on one, but I just have to save up the money for it. Next minor thing is the gun belt, but I want to get a pistol first so I can make the holster around it. I want to get an ESB pistol. Any leads on a B-grade ESB pistol? I don't mind doing work on it because I'm probably not going to use it much, it'll just be a holster warmer. :P
I'm making a mold right now for my knees, and I'll be casting them up in fiberglass for myself.

About Me
Hi, I'm Ayla. I'm glad you've shown interest in my portfolio! Modeling brings me confidence and joy. I've done a few small photoshoots and runway shows, however I do not pursue modeling professionally.
I currently work in a salon as a full-time hairstylist and make-up artist. Modeling is a hobby for me, working in a salon is how I make money $$!!! My career takes priority over modeling, therefore, my work schedule is hectic and traveling IS an issue:
I DO NOT travel outside of the San Jose/Santa Clara area for photoshoots!!
Sundays and Mondays work best with my availability.
I am able to do my own hair and make-up for shoots, but am also interested in showcasing the work of other's. I have NO plans in becoming a hairstylist or make-up artist for photoshoots. I work in-salon, so please, don't ask.
For my safety, I always have a friend or family member accompany me to photoshoots. I DO NOT work with photographers who don't have already have networks, friends or photos. I expect professionalism at all times. I'm looking to speak with local photographers and clothing designers that are building their portfolios.
I have 7 earrings and 4 tattoos.
Tattoo #1 - Back of neck: 3 Stars, Rainbow, & Aries symbol.
Tattoo #2 - Inner left foot: Japanese symbol for Spirit/Soul

Culture Jammers to Film Fest: Apartheid Divides Us
Frameline, the SF LGBT Film Festival, has once again ignored community voices and partnered with the Israeli government. Culture jammers used a Frameline poster in a San Francisco BART station to bring their message of justice to the festival and the public.
For six years, Bay Area activists have been pressuring Frameline, the oldest and largest LGBT film festival in the world, to end its partnership with the Israeli government. Although Frameline publicly claimed that they are "neutral," last year, a packet of documents was leaked (our very own Wikileak!) documenting Frameline's close collaboration with the consulate and Zionist organizations to suppress progressive queer voices.
Five years ago, Frameline staff met with activists and queer Palestinians and seemed to distance itself from the consulate. But three years ago, under new leadership and increased pressure from the consulate, they renewed the relationship. Since then, they have refused to meet with activists on the issue.
This year writers Angela Davis and Alice Walker and filmmakers Susan Stryker, Barbara Hammer, Roya Rastegar and Kim Klausner joined many others in calling on Frameline to drop Israeli sponsorship. And for the first time, filmmakers declined to show their work at the festival over the issue. But Frameline once again chose to ignore our cry for justice and partner with apartheid.
Activists will gather outside the opening night gala for a rousing and rowdy protest. Frameline: Stop Pinkwashing Apartheid.

I don't usually use powder foundations (and only picked this up in a clearance bin for super cheap to use as pressed powder), but I love the colour of this - the greyish yellow is weird but disappears into my skin. The colour reminds me of my long lamented L'Oreal Hydra Perfecte in Bare Beige (oh how I miss thee). A lot of yellow toned foundations are too fake a shade for my skin, and it takes a lot of testing to find something that suits me, so when I find something I stick to it, hence me using just 2 foundations long-term for most of my makeup-using experience. I use this when I just need to even out my skin a little without using my regular foundation, especially when I'm a bit tanned and don't need extra colour. I don't like to use it as pressed powder, it's way too pigmented.

I've finally found my HG foundation. I used Zhen's Light Diffusing Foundation for six years, but I prefer the Dual Powder Foundation because it doesn't feel heavy on my skin. I can finally wear foundation in hot weather without worrying about it melting off of my face. The coverage is light, although you can probably build it up to medium coverage. It didn't feel cakey to me. I use this in both wet and dry form. This is great for travel, since you don't have to worry about it leaking.

This is my first time using loose powder on my face, I usually use pressed. I really like the way this product covers and stays on. I wish it came with a brush though.
I'm not asian so I bought it Bamboo. The color fits nicely with my skin tone. I would buy this again.

the powder foundation color that I tried is Almond and I found that it is overall too brown and grey for me. the light colors from Zhen are too pink even if it was stated that it was for yellow toned people. The foundation powder does not do well with oily people. During the summer I notice it started to slide down my face and T-zone. Overall the coverage is light but building or applying more does not cover much. If I have to compare Zhen powder foundation to the cosmetic found in Asia I would say Asia's cosmetics foundation is better due to better colors and the powders in Asian are better made (better R&D which is not fair because Zhen is a family business but they can hired or outsource a guy do make it better). Zhen dual powder foundation looks like concrete in the compact and the sponge looks cheap, for the price they are charging.

The dual powder foundation is my staple. I use "Cream" and it blends with my skin softly and smoothly. Afterward, for a more 3-dimensional look, I use the Stila Illuminating Powder in 20 Watts to highlight cheekbones, just under the brows, chin and jawline. Consistency is smooth and coverage is relativey light, though buildable to medium. I've never used wet so can't comment on that. What I don't like is the cheesy gold lame cover. Generally, Zhen has a lot of potential as a company geared toward Asians, but their line is very limited and consists of many glittery and coppery formulations, which end up making me look like I'm ill. As a cool-toned asian with light skin there is no way I can wear most of them. I need blue-based colors for shadows, blushes, and lip color and in this area there's hardly any. This is the only item I use from the company.

This it doesn't seem to cover oiliness well, but then again it's not a blotting powder. I have this in almond, and it matches my skin perfectly. The packaging looks kind of cheap (your basic black rectangular compact with zhen logo in gold.) I think the coverage is minimal, but very natural. I put it one once and didn't see much of a difference, but my friend swore my skintone was evened out. Okay stuff. I'm on the fence about this one.

The color (Sand) matches my skin tone but the foundation is as dry as pressed powder. I like the texture of Stila's and Laura Mercier's powder foundation, but neither has a color that suits my complexion.

The color was not the problem for me, it was dry cake-y feel this product left. I even tried applying a little moisturizer under the powder, but it didn't help much. This also felt heavy and thick by mid day. Too bad...

Other than the foundation colors not matching my yellow/olive skin tone at all this did not do anything for me. Didn't have any coverage at all for me. I think I would get more out of regular loose or pressed powder than I would with this.

Etch Primer
Hey guys,
This might seem like a stupid question, but I'm new to this kind of primer. From what I have gathered though I do not have to take the paint down to the bare metal. Do I only need to knock the clear coat off to spray a layer?
Thanks for any info,
Hi Bobby
The title of your thread is "Etch Primer" and your saying that your new to this kind of primer. To be honest with you, the questions are a little confusing, but stupid....not at all, stupid is not asking any questions.
I will try my best to explain Etch Primer to you. Etch Primers and Epoxy Primers are primers that inhibit rust from forming on metal underneath your new paint. When a vehicle is being sanded or prepped for paint, very often the person preparing the vehicle will sand through the paint right down to the metal. When this happens the person preparing the vehicle should apply a light coat of Etch primer over the bare metal followed by a 2 part primer (2K primer) or the person could apply a coat of a sandable Epoxy primer. A sandable Epoxy primer is a good choice to apply over bare metal as well, this would eliminate the need for applying an Etch Primer and a 2 part Primer over top of the Etch Primer, as a sandable Epoxy Primer has properties that minimize the chance of rust appearing on bare metal.
Etch Primers are mostly used today for small burn through's and not used very often on a complete bare metal restoration. On larger areas of bare metal and complete bare metal restorations an Epoxy Primer is the Primer of choice.
To determine if a vehicle needs to be taken down to bare metal there are several factors that need to be taken into consideration.
If the existing paint is peeling (many cars that I'm sure you've seen have the clear coat coming off of the color coat or base coat, when this happens it means that the substrate is weak and the car needs to be taken down to bare metal, re-primed and painted).
Old and faded paint (if paint on a vehicle is just old or faded that may mean that the strength of the existing paint would be in question to use as a solid substrate to apply new paint over top and needs to be removed down to bare metal).
Checked or cracked paint (very common on old lacquer paint from the mid 70's and older, also paint can crack due to improper substrates being used or the top coat not being catalyzed properly or the paint underneath is too thick).
To many previous paint jobs (if the vehicle has had several paint jobs prior to the paint you want to apply, it's a good idea to remove the existing paint and start a new foundation by applying the proper primers and top coats. Two previous paint jobs would be the maximum I would apply new paint over top of the old, if you have more than two, the paint will be thick and more prone to chipping and or cracking).
Or if the vehicle is getting a complete restoration, (starting from bare metal is a must. When you start from bare metal, you know what you have underneath your paint and how durable your substrate is).
If your painting a vehicle where the paint is fairly new or even if it's a little older but in good condition, just a little weathered, you can sand the vehicle and paint over top of the existing paint and not have any issues at all. You don't want to "knock the clear off". You want to use the clear coat as a substrate, the same way you would use a primer as a substrate. If your painting the vehicle in a base coat/clear coat type of paint, sand or prep the vehicle with a 400 grit dry or 600 grit wet sand paper. Try not to sand through the clear coat and or the base coat, any areas that you do, you will need to prime with either an Etch Primer, followed with a 2 Part primer, or a sandable Epoxy Primer. If you use a sandable Epoxy Primer, there isn't any need to apply a 2 part Primer over top, unless your needing more build than the Epoxy Primer gives you.
I hope this explains all of your questions, I know it can be confusing and if it is, let me know and I'll try and make things more clear.
Do not waste your time or money on etch primer, it is old school and a poor to bad choice when compared to today's epoxies.
Bare metal or over sound paint epoxy adhesion is second to none,and it will accept any topcoat as well as provide great surface protection.
I would recommend you buy some SPI epoxy and use it as SPI epoxy is easy to use, sand-able,build-able,cost effective, simply the best epoxy primer you can use.
Check them out at SPI Website, then give them a call and order your materials. Best customer service you will Ever encounter and shipping to your door step is FREE.
Be sure to read The Perfect Paint Job
I wish I owned stock in SPI, but it is privately owned by one of the greatest guys on the 3rd rock from the sun

3-Run 8th Lifts Tribe Over Mud Hens 5-4
Indians Battle Back To Earn Third Straight Victory
By IndyIndians.com | April 15, 2013 7:13 PM ET
TOLEDO, Ohio -- The Indianapolis Indians (8-4) plated three runs in the eighth inning on a two-run Toledo error and RBI base hit from right fielder Jerry Sands to battle back and beat the Toledo Mud Hens (3-9) 5-4 for their third straight victory on Monday night at Fifth Third Field.
Just one day after trailing 5-2 heading into the 7th inning against Columbus, the Indians found themselves in familiar territory down 4-2 moving into the eighth frame on Monday. However, just like Sunday when the Indians rallied for nine runs in the seventh inning on their way to a 12-7 victory, the Tribe again rallied with three runs in the eighth on their way to earning a 5-4 win on Monday.
SS Jordy Mercer led off the eighth inning rally with a base hit to center, before moving up to second when the defending International League batter of the week, Brett Carroll, roped a base hit of his own one batter later. CF Felix Pie then followed Carroll's base knock with a base-on-balls to load the bases and force a pitching change by the Mud Hens.
Into the game came the hard-throwing Bruce Rondon, whose fastball sits in the high 90s, and who entering the contest had given up just one hit over four scoreless innings of relief on the season. 1B Matt Hague stepped in to face Rondon and rolled a ball to usually sure handed 3B Argenis Diaz, who made a key misplay that allowed both Mercer and Carroll to speed home and tie the score at 4-4.
RF Jerry Sands, who after a slow start had collected hits in six of his last seven contests, then came to the plate and came through in the clutch, lining a single to center to plate Pie for what proved to be the game-winning score. The base knock for Sands was also his second base hit of the contest to give him his first multi-hit performance in an Indianapolis uniform.
The Indians' eighth frame rally was made possible thanks to the continued dominating work by the Tribe bullpen as relievers Duke Welker (2.2 IP, 1 H, 2 SO) and RHP Vic Black (1.0 IP, 2 SO) combined for 3.2 scoreless innings of relief. Welker surrendered just a single hit on his way to earning his second victory of the season, while Black pitched a perfect ninth to notch his second save. Overall, this season the Indianapolis bullpen has posted a stellar 1.78 ERA (10 ER in 50.2 IP) with 52 strikeouts and only 13 walks over 50.2 innings pitched.
Indianapolis was able to jump out to an early advantage with a single score in the first inning sparked by the recently returned 2B Josh Harrison, who led off the game with a single to left. Mercer then moved up Harrison with a groundout before the former beloved Toledo Mud Hen Brandon Inge stepped in and ripped a double to left to give the Tribe a 1-0 lead.
Harrison was not finished, however, as the multidimensional infielder also drove in the Tribe's second run on a fielder's choice in the top of the fifth on his way to finishing the night with a game-high three hits. C Tony Sanchez scored on Harrison's fifth frame fielder's choice after leading off the inning with a double to center, moving to third on a groundout and using a nifty slide on Harrison's hit to beat the tag at the plate.
Despite Harrison's heroics, the Indians found themselves down 4-2 thanks to a three-run third and single score sixth by Toledo. RF Ben Guez played a part in all four of the Mud Hens scores, first coming through with a bases loaded double that plated Diaz, 2B Kevin Russo and DH Jordan Lennerton in the third, before singling to lead-off the sixth and later scoring on a base hit by C Bryan Holaday.
Indianapolis, however, mounted the comeback off the Toledo bullpen, pinning the loss on reliever Evan Reed (0.1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 1 SO), who was charged with all three of the Tribe's late frame scores.
In his Triple-A debut Indians' starter Brandon Cumpton (5.1 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 2 SO) allowed four runs on six hits and three walks over 5.1 innings and did not figure in the final decision. Toledo starter Pat Misch (5.2 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 4 SO) also did not figure in the final decision, after allowing two scores on five hits over 5.2 frames of work.
Indianapolis and Toledo will now continue their three-game set with a 6:30 p.m. contest on Tuesday night. RHP Gerrit Cole is expected to take the mound for the Indians, while the Mud Hens are scheduled to counter with LHP Casey Crosby.
The game will be carried on WNDE 1260 AM, WNDE.com and via iheartradio, a mobile application for iPhone, Blackberry and Android phones with Howard Kellman and Will Flemming on the call. The pre-game show begins at 6:10 p.m.
Post-game quotes -- RF Jerry Sands
(on the comeback win)
"Resiliency has been something these first few weeks that we have obviously grown accustomed to, because we have kind of put ourselves in the hole a little bit. But I think we have a good enough team and good enough bullpen that when we finally do strike, we can put it away from there."
(on feeling more comfortable as of late at the plate)
"I have just been working. Trying to adjust to a different club, being with these guys and what they expect and how they do things around here. And adjust to a new league, I was in the PCL the last couple years, so just seeing some arms and what they like to do over here. And obviously just figuring myself out. I have gotten alot more comfortable these last few games and hopefully just keep carrying it over."
(on the dominating Indianapolis bullpen)
"Our starters have been throwing the ball well too, but our bullpen comes in there and does a great job. Hopefully, they will keep doing it."

Internet Service Competition in Danger
As hard as it is there is actually competition between internet service providers, just not a lot of it. Comcast wants to see what little there is disappear. Read this great internet providers guide and see how even now ISPs are merging into one giant internet thing! Remember how much long distance calls cost when Ma Bell was still one company? Yeah long distance used to cost money, BECAUSE THEY COULD GET AWAY WITH IT!
Call your congressman and waste a little of your time complaining about this, then wait for John Oliver to fix it with comedy.
Satellite Internet Sucks, Elon Musk Can Fix It
Elon has built an electric car that doesn't suck, space ships that can go into space without bankrupting a nation, and made internet purchases safe…mostly. So when this great man says he can make satellite internet services that don't suck it is wise to pay attention.
Musk plans to create a global communications system that could provide low-cost service to everyone that doesn't already have it. That number is in the billions. Musk says the speed will be on par with fiber optic service and although this sounds crazy, everything that this man has done up to this point has sounded crazy so we should probably just go with it and figure it will work out.
And why does Musk think this will work? Because "The speed of light is 40% faster in the vacuum of space than it is for fiber". Of course it is Elon, we all knew that. Now go make your thing and save the world. While you are at it fix the Wireless Internet as well. It's slow as hell in the U.S.

This is a discussion on Detailed today WRX WR Blue Mica within the Detailing Forum forums, part of the Tech & Modifying & General Repairs category; Here is a couple of shots of my detailed WRX. Haven't been clean for a few weeks so I got ...
Not a fan of the exhaust, but the car overall looks great!
2011 WRX DGM Sedan
Garage full of crap huh? Makes sense, $30,000 car outside, crap inside.
Stage 1 WRX=Fun car.
2001 Dodge Stratus R/T=Driving to work car.
Invidia street exhaust\AEM Intake\Cobb access port flashed to stage 1 +AEM intake. Estimated 294hp/353ft lbs of torque
Looks good!
I finally busted out most of my detailing kit last night since I am working evenings today and could sleep in. ONR, (skipped the clay since it was fairly smooth), Menzerna Final Polish, and some BlackFire Wet Diamond. That sealant is just amazing.
Even if there aren't any raised deposits you can feel, it's still a good idea to use a mild clay to help remove previous buildup of wax, grime, etc.
Better yet, to avoid dragging a clay bar across the surface that might introduce swirls, use Prepsol before applying a sealant or wax. It's what body shops use before they paint, to remove oils, contaminants, wax buildup, road grime, etc. It promotes adhesion with either a sealant or wax and provides longer lasting protection.
I will look into the Prepsol stuff. I am imagine it would be better to use after the polish, not before. The polish doesn't much care what's under it as long as its fairly clean, correct?
Yeah, Menzerna Final Polish actually has fine abrasives that help reduce swirls, but very difficult to do so by hand. A machine polisher would be the way to go down the road.
Prepsol is perfect after any abrasive polish, because the polish generally contains oils (even water based like Menzerna FP) that will make it difficult or impossible to which a sealant or wax can adhere. You can find it in the auto body section rather than the car wash/wax detailing section of your local auto parts store. It comes in a lot of names, such as Prep-All, etc. Ultimately it is just a weak solvent that is safe on plastic trim that you wipe on and immediately wipe off. If you let it sit and air dry, all you did was dissolve the oils/wax/etc and then let them dry in a fine film over the paint.
Been doing a lot of reading on Autopia. Some good resources over there as far as detailing goes. Nice, low key crowd as well.
I need to go through our basement. With my luck we have something I can use as a polisher. I have a feeling I only need to get a couple pads. If so, going to pick up a mid strength polish and do up my mother's saab/trailblazer for mothers day. Espeically considering I keep snatching her garage do my car =P.
If I run that prepsol over my car after a wash when I get back, could I just go straight on to applying a coat or two of the sealant? I would like to get another coat on there.
I dont really use the clay at all should I start using it and what brand should I buy. I watched some videos online on how to do it. And I just washed and waxed her that day. It rained the past few days so I had the car cover on. Any who what does the polisher do I was looking into buying some of that too and whats a good brand.
Stage 1 WRX=Fun car.
2001 Dodge Stratus R/T=Driving to work car.
Invidia street exhaust\AEM Intake\Cobb access port flashed to stage 1 +AEM intake. Estimated 294hp/353ft lbs of torque
If you Prepsol the car now, you'll remove the layer of sealant you already applied, but will certainly prepare a better base for adhesion for the new layers. If you already have a layer on, I'd just go on with a second layer and try Prepsol next time. (Probably mid summer)
Unless you're about to polish, you want a very fine clay like Sonus Green. PM me and I might be able to get you a discount.
Some great machine polishers out there like the UDM or Flex but Rotary polishers are a lot more powerful and will get the job done faster. Just need to learn the technique and practice before working on your car. Look for Youtube videos of "System One" and you'll see people trying rotary polishers for the first time with great success.

Gateway, Plum test their mettle at early-season invitational
Heat, humidity and hills all added up to an early-season test for more than 15 high school cross country teams, as the Gateway Invitational marked its 24th year.
Boyce Park provided the setting, as runners attacked the hilly course that's been used since 2007.
Gateway and Plum are regulars at the race, and the Gators and Mustangs fared well and were able to see where they stood against some challenging competition from throughout the WPIAL and elsewhere in western Pennsylvania.
On the varsity boys' side, Gateway and Plum each placed a runner in the top 20, as Gators' senior Tyler Palenchak finished seventh with a time of 18:25, and Mustangs junior Alan Yocca took 20th in a time of 18:53.
Both of their place finishes and times were improvements from last year, as Palenchak was 12th (18:42) in 2011, and Yocca was 38th (20:06).
A Plum and a Gateway runner were not too far behind Yocca, as Plum senior Luke Jennings took 22nd in 18:59 and Gateway freshman Liam Connelly was 23rd (19:00).
Fox Chapel's Ethan Mar- tin set a fast pace, and he was not challenged coming down the stretch to the finish line.
His first-place time of 17:20 was 33 seconds faster than Hempfield's Jon Faye.
Last year, Martin took third with a time of 18:01, and he was looking up at Baldwin graduate Andrew Kuchta, who set a course record with a time of 16:53.
Faye was sixth in the 2011 running of the Gateway Invite.
Baldwin won its fifth boys team title in the past seven seasons. The Highlanders' top two runners placed fourth and fifth, a third runner took 17th and a fourth runner placed 21st.
Plum finished in the sixth spot in the team standings, while Gateway was one behind in seventh.
The girls varsity race saw a senior lead the Plum contingent, and a freshman paced the Gateway team.
Mustangs veteran runner Gina Valotta placed 26th overall in a time of 23:45, and she knocked 1:35 off her 47th-place finish at last year's invitational.
Gators first-year runner Katie Heasley turned in a 29th-place finish in a time of 23:48.
Morgan Ansell put her stamp on another Gateway Invitational title, as the Hempfield sophomore claimed her second victory in as many seasons.
She bested the field with a time of 20:37, four seconds faster than runner-up Mary Humphrey of Fox Chapel.
With Ansell's first-place finish leading the way, Hempfield captured its second straight girls team title.
The Spartans edged out second-place Laurel Highlands by three points.
Gateway placed eighth, while Plum took 10th.
Both Plum and Gateway will be in action Saturday at the annual Red, White and Blue Invitational at Pittsburgh's Schenley Park.
The popular early-season race features dozens of teams in both Class AAA and AA, and a who's who of top WPIAL teams and squads from throughout western Pennsylvania are schedule to compete.

Companies Wary of Affordable Care Act Plans for Small Businesses
Small businesses who offer insurance appear to be sticking with what they have rather than venture out into the Affordable Care Act marketplace.
"There's just tremendous insecurity as to how those programs will work," said Nancy Fennelly, who along with her husband, runs NAI Fennelly, a corporate real estate company in Princeton, N.J.
The Fennellys' health insurance plan just went up 29 percent this year. While they are concerned, they're considering sticking with the higher plans instead of considering the Small Business Health Options Program — or SHOP — a set of plans offered to small businesses under the Affordable Care Act.
"We're sort of in a state of flux right now where we just are probably going to be sitting the next 12 months waiting to see which way this all washes out," she said.
Over in Trenton, at the Home Rubber Company, owner Rich Balka is considering the SHOP but is leaning towards his current plan for his 40 employees, despite being a "huge fan of the Affordable Care Act from the beginning."
"I don't think anybody really knows yet how this is going to shake out," he said.

Khronos Releases Streamlined OpenGL 3.1 Specification
Rapid nine month development cycle since OpenGL 3.0; Adds cutting edge GPU functionality and streamlines API; Accelerates convergence with OpenGL ES
24th March, 2009 – GDC, San Francisco, CA – The Khronos™ Group announced today it has publicly released the OpenGL® 3.1 specification that modernizes and streamlines the cross-platform, royalty-free API for 3D graphics. OpenGL 3.1 includes GLSL™ 1.40, a new version of the OpenGL shading language, and provides enhanced access to the latest generation of programmable graphics hardware through improved programmability, more efficient vertex processing, expanded texturing functionality and increased buffer management flexibility. OpenGL 3.1 implementations are expected shortly from multiple vendors. The new OpenGL 3.1 specification and more details are available at www.khronos.org/opengl.
OpenGL 3.1 leverages the evolutionary model introduced in OpenGL 3.0 to dramatically streamline the API for simpler and more efficient software development, and accelerates the ongoing convergence with the widely available OpenGL ES mobile and embedded 3D API to unify application development. The OpenGL 3.1 specification enables developers to leverage state-of-the-art graphics hardware available on a significant number of installed GPUs across all desktop operating systems. According to Dr. Jon Peddie of Jon Peddie Research, a leading graphics market analyst in California, the installed base of graphics hardware that will support OpenGL 3.1 exceeds 100 million units. OpenGL 3.0 drivers are already shipping on AMD, NVIDIA and S3 GPUs.
Concurrently with the release of the OpenGL 3.1 specification, the OpenGL ARB has released an optional compatibility extension that enables application developers to access the OpenGL 1.X/2.X functionality removed in OpenGL 3.1, ensuring full backwards compatibility for applications that require it.
"The rapid nine month development of OpenGL 3.1 demonstrates the schedule-driven approach to the standard that is enabling and inspiring cutting edge, cross-platform GPU functionality," said Barthold Lichtenbelt, chair of the OpenGL ARB working group at Khronos. "OpenGL 3.1 answers the requests from the developer community to streamline and modernize the OpenGL API. The OpenGL ARB will continue to leverage the unique evolutionary model introduced in OpenGL 3.0 to drive the ongoing revolution in OpenGL while ensuring backwards compatibility where it is needed."
OpenGL 3.1 introduces a broad range of significant new features including:
- Texture Buffer Objects - a new texture type that holds a one-dimensional array of texels of a specified format, enabling extremely large arrays to be accessed by a shader, vital for a wide variety of GPU compute applications;
- Signed Normalized Textures – new integer texture formats that represent a value in the range [-1.0,1.0];
- Uniform Buffer Objects - enables rapid swapping of blocks of uniforms for flexible pipeline control, rapid updating of uniform values and sharing of uniform values across program objects;
- More samplers – now at least 16 texture image units must be accessible to vertex shaders in addition to the 16 already guaranteed to be accessible to fragment shaders;
- Primitive Restart – to easily restart an executing primitive, useful for efficiently drawing a mesh with many triangle strips, for example;
- Instancing - the ability to draw objects multiple times by re-using vertex data to reduce duplicated data and number of API calls;
- CopyBuffer API – accelerated copies from one buffer object to another, useful for many applications including those that share buffers with OpenCL™ 1.0 for advanced visual computing applications.
Member Quotes
"AMD will support OpenGL 3.1 in the upcoming driver release for the Radeon and FirePro products, and is fully supportive of the OpenGL API," said Suki Samra, director of OpenGL at AMD.
"NVIDIA is committed to the rapid adoption of OpenGL 3.1 and we are proud to release our beta drivers on the same day as the specification itself," said Dan Vivoli, vice president of marketing at NVIDIA. "OpenGL 3.1 marks over 15 years of tradition in advancing the state-of-the-art for graphics developers."
About OpenGL
The OpenGL specification enables developers to incorporate a broad set of programmable 3D and 2D graphics rendering and visualization functions, and provides unfettered access to graphics hardware acceleration. Since its introduction by SGI in 1992, OpenGL has become the industry's most widely used and supported programming interface and is available on all major computer platforms, including Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. Overseen by the Khronos Group since 2006, and with broad industry support, OpenGL is a vendor-neutral, multiplatform graphics standard that is uniquely positioned to leverage and drive the continuing evolution of graphics hardware.

'Philosophers- Kings and Stoic Stages: Epictetus' Account of the "Starting Points" (aphormai) of Virtue'
Abstract: It has long been noticed that, while Plato in the Republic explains why justice makes an individual happy, he does not provide a clear account of why justice and virtue in general can motivate an individual to help others and engage in other regarding behavior. Stoic ethics seems to raise a similar problem: while the Stoics maintain that the possession of virtue makes a human being happy, it is not clear why, on their account, virtue should motivate a human being to act in other-regarding ways. By reconstructing Epictetus' account of the so-called starting points to virtue, I will try to show that he explains both the development of virtue and that of other-regarding behavior by appealing to a set of pre-reflective moral dispositions for which he finds inspiration precisely in Plato's Republic.

"Anatomy and Aporia in Galen's
On the Construction of Fetuses"
Friday, November 20, 2015, 3:30 p.m.
Room 206 Cathedral of Learning
Abstract: Galen was well known for his insistence on scientific precision in the practice of medicine, and his own claims to authority often rested on his assertions that other medical writers (contemporary and historical) did not properly understand logical inference or empirical demonstration. One area of inquiry, however, that remained impenetrable even by scientific methods was the nature of the soul, particularly questions about its materiality, ontology, intentionality and teleology. Galen famously concedes his aporia about the soul at various points in his writings, and affirms the intractability of the problem in his late work. This frustration was particularly evident in his treatise On the Formation of the Embryo, where a focus on the origins and development of a new human being revives the large questions about how bodies are formed and animated by a soul from the moment of conception. This presentation will examine how Galen approaches these questions with the specific concerns of embryology in mind. It will discuss in particular the tension in this work between Galen's desire for accuracy and analytical completeness, and the limits of scientific expertise that a subject such as this entails. Aspects of Galen's scientific methodology will be considered as they relate to Galen's struggle in On the Formation of the Embryo to account for the most fundamental questions of corporeal existence and development.

"Calcidius on Matter"
Abstract: Calcidius, the 4th c. AD Latin commentator on Plato's Timaeus,
provides one of the most intricate analyses of the principle 'matter'
available to us from Antiquity, which includes material from Aristotle
and the Stoics (among others). In this paper, I will focus on how the
view he ends up endorsing amounts to a very distinctive and interesting
form of minimal dualism.

"Receptivity, Spontaneity, and Basic Perceptual Discrimination in Aristotle"
This is a paper about Aristotle's account of basic sensory discrimination (krinein) and the reception of perceptual qualities without their matter in the De Anima II.11 and 12: Aristotle's philosophy of nature makes qualities objective features of physical objects. The challenge he faces in accounting for their perception (aisthêsis) is therefore less dramatic than in philosophers with a different attitude towards nature and qualities: on the most basic level, it consists in explaining the separation of qualities from their matter and their consequent reception by the perceiver. Based on Aristotle's views about animal receptivity and spontaneity and their relation to the perceptual soul, the paper offers an interpretation of sensory discrimination as the separation of qualities from their matter, on which he can meet the challenge and explain the perception of basic qualities. I end with a brief discussion of higher forms of perceptual discrimination.

Being, Nature, and Life In Aristotle
by James G. Lennox (Editor), Robert Bolton (Editor)
This volume of essays explores major connected themes in Aristotle's metaphysics, philosophy of nature, and ethics, especially themes related to essence, definition, teleology, activity, potentiality, and the highest good. The volume is united by the belief that all aspects of Aristotle's work need to be studied together if any one of the areas of thought is to be fully understood. Many of the papers were contributions to a conference at the University of Pittsburgh entitled 'Being, Nature, and Life in Aristotle', to honor Professor Allan Gotthelf's many contributions to the field of ancient philosophy; a few are contributions from those who were invited but could not attend. The contributors, all longstanding friends of Professor Gotthelf, are among the most accomplished scholars in the field of ancient philosophy today.

About Dorcas Hoar
Dorcas (Galley) Hoar, a widow from Beverly, Massachusetts, was accused of witchcraft during the Salem witch trials of 1692, found guilty and condemned to hang, but then confessed and with the support of several ministers, was given a temporary reprieve.
"Dorcas Hoar was reprieved, even though she had been dabbling in the occult for years by telling fortunes in Beverly. She was said to have predicted her husband, William Hoar's death."
During her examination by the court Dorcas was challenged with the spectral evidence:
- * Dorcas: Oh! you are liars, & God will stop the mouth of liars.
- * Court: You are not to speak after this manner in the Court.
- * Dorcas: I will speak the Truth as long as I live.
From Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England, 1620-33 John Galley
"A lengthy series of documents produced at Salem Court on 25 June 1678 portray Dorcas (Galley) Hoare as a precursor of Dickens's Fagin, apparently organizing her own daughters and a neighboring maidservant, Margaret Lord, into a burglary ring[EQC 7:42-55]. This situation may underlie the terms of the bequest to William Hoare in the will of John Galley."
from Wikipedia:
While imprisoned awaiting trial, Dorcas Hoar confessed to acts of witchcraft to Jonathan Lovett, son of Jonathan and Bethia (Rootes) Lovett. Jonathan was visiting his grandmother Susannah Rootes, also accused of the act of witchcraft and awaiting trial. Jonathan then testified to this confession in the 1692 trial of Dorcas Hoar where she was found guilty.
Rev. Deodat Lawson wrote of her,
"only one Woman Condemned, after the Death Warrant was signed, freely Confessed, which occasioned her Reprieval for sometime; and it was observable, This Woman had one Lock of Hair, of a very great length, viz. Four Foot and Seven Inches long, by measure, this Lock was of a different colour from all the rest, (which was short and grey) it grew on the hinder part of her Head, and was matted together like an Elf-Lock; the Court ordered it to be cut off, to which she was very unwilling, and said, she was told if it were cut off, she should Dye, or be Sick, yet the Court ordered it so to be."[1]
from: [http://epluribus.me/2011/12/11/blacksheep-sunday-grandma-dorcas-part-i-–-burglary-ring/ December Blacksheep Sunday: Grandma Dorcas, Part I – Burglary Ring]
Dorcas Galley was my 8th-Great Grandmother on the Crosby side. She was born in late 1635 or early 1636 in the town of Beverly, Essex County of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, America. Her parents, John and Florence Galley most likely arrived in America shortly before her birth.
Dorcas, although an odd name by today's standards, was not so uncommon a name in early New England. Dorcas, an alternate form of Tabitha, is a New Testament name of the Bible (Tabitha being the Aramaic form) and associated with being charitable.[1]
Around 1655, Dorcas Galley married William Hoar, also of Beverly. The date of marriage is calculated based on the birth year of their oldest known child, Samuel. Together, William and Dorcas had a second son, William (my 7th-Great Grandfather) and four daughters: Mary, Elizabeth, Annice and Tabitha. The birthdates of the children have yet to be found, but it is known that by 1678 all the children, with the exception of Annice, were married.
In Spring 1678, John Hale of Beverly made a formal complaint to authorities in which he was the victim of several thefts. Fortunately, the records of the Quarterly Court of Essex County, in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, still exist. ... An Arrest Warrant was issued on May 31, 1678, charging Dorcas Hoar and three of her daughters with receiving stolen goods. The contraband included flour, malt and oatmeal that were received from Margret Lord.
Robert Hale testified that Margret called Dorcas "Mother" and referred to Dorcas' daughters as her sisters and all were involved in the thievery.
Roger Conant testified that some six to eight years before, Mary and Elizabeth Hoar came to his house to buy apples. While in the cellar fetching the apples a large bolt of canvass was stolen from his house.
Much of the remaining testimony was similar to Conant's; the allegation often happening years before their testimony, and many times the testimony was hearsay. Sixteen (16) others would also testified, either in-court or through deposition, concerning the Hoars stealing. There were also claims that Dorcas and Margret Lord violated the Sabbath and on some occasions were seen dancing in the woods on the Lord's Day.
Killicrist and Mary Ross testified that Mary and Elizabeth Hoar lived with them for a time and they knew them to be trustworthy and faithful. Tabitha, however, they said, "was such a lying creature that they could not believe a word she said and could keep her no longer." Mary was Dorcas' sister.
'The legal standards of the 1600s were much different than today's. Hearsay was permitted and the court appears to have been the sole Trier – there was no prosecutor or defense, just the body of the court. Based on the facts, the likelihood of acquittal appears slim. I have sent out queries seeking to learn the disposition of the case, but I am not too confident of success. Searches of the other 8 volumes in the series of court records have not given any clues either. Hopefully one day the outcome will be learned.'
There are no loose ends to her next case: the outcome is known.
From http://epluribus.me/2011/12/30/black-sheep-sunday-grandma-dorcas-part-2-capital-crime/
In the spring of 1692 Dorcas Hoar was living in the town of Beverly, Massachusetts. She was recently widowed after her husband William died suddenly, and some thought suspiciously, during the previous winter. On April 30, 1692 Jonathan Walcott and Thomas Putnam swore out a formal complaint with the court detailing allegations of witchcraft committed by Dorcas and two others.
Dorcas was ordered to be held until her trial for "High Suspicion of Sundry Acts of Witchcraft" and was committed to the jail in Boston. The trial of Dorcas Hoar was held September 6, 1692 in the village of Salem. The testimony of 18 people, all for the prosecution, was received by the court. There is no mention of testimony being presented in the defense of Dorcas.
After the sheriff had done his part in the affair, Rev. Nicholas Noyes, of Salem, turned toward the suspended bodies of the condemned, and said: "What a sad thing it is to see eight firebrands of hell hanging there." — September 22, 1692.
On September 22, 1692 eight people — 6 women and 2 men — were hanged in Salem; all were convicted of witchcraft. Four of those executed were condemned on September 9th. However, Dorcas was not among those hanged.
The day before her scheduled execution, Dorcas confessed to being a witch and asked for a one-month stay of execution so that she may pray for redemption of her soul. On September 21, 1692 a petition signed by Rev. John Hale, Rev. Nicholas Noyes, Daniel Epps and John Emerson was sent to the court asking for a temporary reprieve for Dorcas, for the sake of redeeming her soul.
What became of Dorcas after her release from jail is unknown. No other records pertaining to her, while living, have been found. On September 13, 1710 Annas King, Dorcas' daughter, requested that restitution be made for the property seized from Dorcas upon her conviction. The inventory of property seized included two cows, a mare, a bed, bedding, curtains and other household items. The grand total of property seized was 21 pounds 17 shillings.
On December 17, 1711 Dorcas was compensated the full amount of 21 pounds 17 shillings. By this time, however, Dorcas had died so several of her children shared the payment. No record of Dorcas' death has been found.

Ole's Cross Country Center features easy skiing right out the door. We pack down the snow on 30 miles of ski trails to let your skis glide smoothly. Half of our trails are in open fields and half are in the forest. Open trails near the ski center are relatively flat, so great mountain views are within a short and easy ski. Many skiers also enjoy the magical winter quiet on our snowy forest trails.
Families and friends often ski together on our modern rental gear, then return to the ski center for lunch at Ole's deli. The ski-center lounge is a great place to relax or use the wireless access. After lunch, swap your skis for snowshoes and check out some of the 10 miles of trails just for snowshoeing (all for one rental fee).
Cross country skiing is terrific exercise because it uses many muscle groups, but is low impact. Choose your own pace, but at any pace, this exercise is truly invigorating. Cross country skiing regularly will incinerate extra winter calories.
This is a sport that can be done from age 5 to age 85 and beyond. You will notice a wide range of ages on the trails at Ole's. And cross country skiing is an affordable sport, even for large families.
If you are a new skier, or have not skied for a while, schedule a lesson. You will be amazed how much fun taking a lesson can be. You will learn to turn and stop your skis. Our instructors love to teach skiing and all train with the Professional Ski Instructors of America to keep up-to-date on the latest teaching and skiing trends.
See you at Ole's!

Have a large book of receipts over the years even previous
Let me ask you what dictates its worth? Is a evo ,sti,mercedes,e92 ,Ferrari,ect a better car than the e30 m3? Do those car have a higher dtm racing record? We're any those cars built buy the racing devision of there company souly as a race car to race in a specific series ? What is cost of those cars 30-200 k . What makes them worth it over the e30 m3? Let me tell you one the reasons why becuase most people don't even know what it is,what it has done.most people never owned one or has driven one.the people who have gave it a rating of 5th best car ever built in history. Writers who have wrote probably more articles on it more reviews comparing to even modern cars of today and it still wins as favorite car.only reason people think its worth less becuase some salvaged title or engine swaped car sold for 18-25 k. some rust bucket perverted turd sold for cheap. Is a 1974 turbo a better car than e30 m3? Does it handle better is it faster did it rule dtm racing? No what do they sell for 60 -100k.why ? Becuase some one wants it and is willing to pay that for it! Until e30 m3 owners sell there cars for what they are worth we are JUst givng them away to idiots who will bastardized them . So do I think my e30 m3 with the parts it has and the rarity of it is worth 60k ? Hell yes! Do I think its worth 100 k hell yes ,well thats me probably half the other owners that are true enthusiasts feel that way. until I get closer to its true value It will stay with me even if that is till my death.
I posted my car forsale recently
Let me say first I love this car and even if I had millions to recreate it again it would take a lot of time to acquire the parts and add the parts on .
If it sells for close to its value vrs other values of cars I will sell it.
If some one thinks its worth allot less my guess is the dont own one .
I'm interested to read what do owners of e30 m3 think the true value of there car is and if it is higher than non owners why are we giving them away for so cheap?
This has to be Christian
Moved to the appropriate forum.
Yup I really don't want sell it.i really don't need sell it.
If i could get high enough price it would force me too sell it.one thing lame about wa barley any bmw car meets.i need a ricer now if I want go to meets jk.
What is your opinion on value of our cars ?
I guess I just remove from ebay until m3 owners start holding out like me for there worth.
I just don't get how a honda ,Toyota can be worth the same.
Our cars sold for 35,000 new shouldnt they be worth more now that over years we found out they could not build anything better?
funny thing is I'm trying force my self to sell it when I can't let it go.
I have 4 cars becuase the washington rain it sits in garage so much more i just feel guilty its there.
I removed the ebay auction lol
Funny i don't think I could ever sell it just feeling pressure to sell it from family .
Might explain why I was asking high price

These cars are truly priceless. This is coming from a guy who sold his E30 M3 like a fool at the tender age of 22 not knowing that he would eventually regret that decision nearly everyday of his life. Im 100% serious. I loved that car fully and you cant put a price tag on that. I whole heartedley agree with OP. E30 M3 nearly impossible to beat. Regretfully signing off...

In 1988 I was driving a 1985 Nissan 300ZX Turbo with an intercooler and about twice the factory boost. Although I loved the car and the incredible acceleration, I had accumulated a lot of miles on it and was looking to replace it. Nissan had not refreshed the 300ZX (my logical replacement choice) and I was trying to decide what to buy. By chance, I was driving by the local BMW dealer and there it was, a bright red 1988 E30 M3. It was love at first sight. Within three weeks a brand new bright red, white leather interior, E30 M30 with 9 miles on the odometer was delivered to my townhouse on a flatbed. This was my first BMW.
Except for my 2002 Z3 (that I still have with 145K miles - not making the same mistake twice) I never had a car I liked as much as my M3. The E30 just had a feel and sound, not to mention the great looks, that made it a great car. I remember late one night doing nothing more than driving 80 mph on the Florida Turnpike and feeling the car in the seat of my pants and just thinking what a great vehicle it is. In my opinion it was the best of all the M3's because it was lean and relatively light and not plumped out like later M3s with too much stuff that is really only appropriate in a SUV like my X3.
After four years as my primary driver, and about 140K miles, I just perceived the car was at end of life with respect to reliable and dependable operation and sold it. I have regretted this decision for the past twenty or so years. In reality it was in excellent mechanical condition and one could eat off the engine. It needed a little body work, the front air dam needed replacement, probably needed repainting, the leather was a little worn, and it still had the original clutch - but that was it. It would have been relatively inexpensive to restore it.
BMW e30 m3 owners what is true value of your car?
As someone pointed out earlier about houses, your car is worth what you sell it for, not what you think it should be worth. $60-100K for your E30 when you can find clean ones from 30-40K? Why? Mods don't increase value, if anything, they decrease it.
People want pure, untouched E30s.

Some say that chocolate is a fruit since it comes from a cacao tree in the tropics. Some also insist that anything covered in chocolate has to be good for you.
Chocolate is a very popular food that is often misunderstood. It is part taste and part memory. When the world comes crashing down around you this divinely delicious candy is cheaper than therapy. It is a warm fuzzy for the belly and pure ecstasy from the ancient gods of Montezuma. Chocolate is to food what silk is to clothing.
There is a blend of over 500 flavors in chocolate. This is more than 2 1/2 times more flavors found in any other foods. Its sensory properties are unmatched by anything else we eat. Since it is such a unique plant product, its taste and popularity cannot be compared. Chocolate is in a class by itself.
Throughout history chocolate has been linked to many health claims. Recent medical studies reveal that chocolate has nothing to do with acne; hormones are the culprits. Dentists currently agree that compared to other sugary treats, chocolate is actually part of a preventative dental program. Cocoa butter in the chocolate coats the teeth and prevents tooth decay. It can also kill the harmful streptococcal bacteria that lead to plaque on your teeth.
Consciously avoiding chocolate can cause a craving. Although experts report there is no such thing as a chocolate addiction, many people become compulsive choco-lovers. They crave and are hooked on the smooth, rich, flavorful delicacy.
Moderation is the key when eating chocolate. It is considered a low in nutrient density food, meaning there is more fat and sugar than healthy benefits. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans states the greater the consumption of foods or beverages that are low in nutrient density, the more difficult it is to consume enough nutrients without gaining weight, especially for sedentary individuals.
Mindfully savoring chocolate is the ideal way to enjoy it. Mindlessly swallowing multiple handfuls of M&Ms is why the company made them into small bits. The little crunchy morsels of chocolately sweetness satisfy the senses. Allowing a single piece melt in the mouth is a healthier way to enjoy chocolate.
Let the chocolate essence cover your teeth and slowly slide down your throat. If you are just chewing and swallowing chocolate, you are not appreciating the full bouquet of flavor that this indulgence allows. Make it last because moderation is the key.
As far as identifying chocolate as a fruit, that is a far stretch of the truth. The less sugar and fat, the healthier it will be. The amount of smooth goodness on the palate will also determine the value to the body.
Bathing in chocolate can get sticky. Swallowing small amounts will enhance health. Anything surrounded in chocolate is worth a try. Some cultures mix it with cinnamon and hot peppers. Mix it with raisins, nuts or coconut for a true treat.

Dragon Age 2 - Interview @ Kitty's Pride
Alrik sends in an interview from NY ComicCon with David Gaider and Michael Laidlaw at Kitty's Pryde. It's a faily innocuous article, so here's a snip on the not-yet-officially-announced Dragon Age 3:
But Bioware haven't managed exploration in any of the games I've played. They can do locations but not exploration in the sense of Skyrim, Gothic or even Two Worlds. (Unless you go back to the 2d games.) Their technology just doesn't support that. The Witcher developed that engine hugely to produce their slightly open second game, but the Dragon Ages are much more a series of stages for the plot & character stories to play out. Which seems fine to me, and where I think they should continue to focus.
Yeah, that "whoa" moment he mentions has never been part of Bioware games in my experience. Clicking a map icon and then going "whoa" when you see the new area maybe, but never exploration "whoa."
With Fallout NV and Skyrim, Bethesda has sort of set the standard for what I want out of an RPG. Dragon Age 3/BioWare has their work cut out for them. DA2 was just too lazy.
I agree with DoctorNarrative. Exploration has never been the strong point of Bioware games. Even with adding highlight button in Baldur's Gate 2 they saved us from pixel hunting. But overall, their statements about Dragon Age 3 so far show they're on the right path. Dragon Age 2 is indeed a waste of potential. It really features interesting characters, plot and side stories, but terrible repetitive of places and corridor feeling really it's huge flaw. I don't know whether it stems from their laziness or short development time but I'm now at the end of Act 3, I'm going to puke at screen because of seeing same places over and over again. At least playing DLCs reduces this feeling. Only reason I'm still playing the game is the story.
It seems Bioware developers learned something from Witcher 2 and Skyrim. For they aim meaningful choices&consequences (Witcher 2) and much exploration (Skyrim). If they can also provide different, interesting locations as well as protecting their strong story telling aspect, I'm sure they can win back their old fans.
I have hope for Dragon Age 3. Game companies may take their lessons from their mistakes, like Bethesda did from Oblivion's mistakes.
It's not BioWare I distrust, it's EA.
If all they improve from DA2 is add a bit more free exploration, a lot more side quests and have your choices result in more impact on the ending, I would be pleased.
(I'm referring to quests where you actually need to speak with an NPC first, rather than simply finding something in a chest and then getting gold from a random stranger.)
It would also be nice to see a more complex implementation of joinable factions and a crafting system that is actually fun and worthwhile, but I'm not going to hold my breath for either of those to happen.

Keep Eye on AIG
Trading this week has been somewhat uncharacteristic of late August trading, with action and volatilty coming into the market. The trade that has stood out this week has been AIG. Although we talked about a possible short earlier in the week, if you were listening on the radio, we never entered the position after the stock once again looked strong. Each time AIG has broken a level, it has exploded and not looked back. Keep your eye on it for further upside action, but especially look for clues for when the reversal will come, because it will provide a good measured trade for us.

Can you have both speakers going at the same time from either your mobile or laptop? I have paired both speakers to mobile and laptop. But when I try to play music through one speaker and then I select the other, I get a message saying to disconnect one before I can use the other. How do I get both speakers to play?
so what less expensive bluetooth speaker would you recommend? I don't need it to look good, I just want some decent Loud sounding speaker. any recommendations?
download the ue boom app from the app store. that will solve your problem.
I have two. One sounds ok, but coupled in stereo, they sound great! Ok, if you prefer a powerful bass and music styles that need them, look elsewhere, but coupled in stereo there is a whole new dimension with these in listening to "mobile" music. Of course it all depends on how you value portability, but these are now my only speakers at home, which I can easily take anywhere in the house or garden, on training sessions, cycling, on trips to the beach, small parties, ... you get the picture.
Hi Andrew Williams, you and your team are always on point with it's review and recommendation. But I am in need of your advice or your tap into FaceBook followers! I purchased both a Bose Sound-link Mini & UE Boom, to test the sound quality & size in my home. I fell in love with both of them in the sound quality & size. This is exactly what I'm looking for in my day to day use 100%. However sadly had to return both the Bose Sound-link Mini and UE Boom because non removable battery, plus Bose has no speaker phone capabilities like the UE Boom.
Logitech told me the UE Boom is built with non replacement part including battery. I want a device with the Sound quality & suitcase portability size like the Bose Sound-link Mini and UE Boom plus speakerphone with built in mic. A device that I can have for more than 5-8 years and not have to wonder how I can get a battery replacement to continue with my listening pleasure. What can you recommend that you have tested that would fit my needs.
I'm I the only one with these concern about the non removable or replacement issue on these BlueTooth speakers?
Thanks for any advice and have a great day.
Yes. Make something I won't have to replace in 2-3 years. PLEASE!
Of the two which gave the better sound quality? Is the Bose sound link mini stereo?
The UE Boom sounded sharper, the Bose Mini sounder buttery. Both great sound, but not worth the price for speakers that will no longer be portable after two years.
Soundlink mini does have a removable battery when you remove the rubber underneath
I just purchased this speaker for a Christmas gift tested all day yesterday love it and so will my boyfriend that the gift is for....but mine did not come with the waterproof plug for the usb port holes....can u tell me how to get this plug.? ty
Right with you. I'm waiting for a quality bluetooth speaker with removeable battery. My iPal is a paperweight and I won't make that mistake again. Shame on the industry.
This review is very inaccurate. And some things have changed. The BOOM now comes with solidly fitting rubber plugs on the bottom for the line-in and USB sockets, so water resistance is maintained. Also, each unit, without double up, does play stereo sound, not mono. The two 1.5" drivers deliver the left and right channels. With such a small size, the stereo separation isn't obviously fantastic, but you can be creative with placement and get better stereo separation from one unit. Considering the competition, it's not expensive. It's more durable, portable, protective against the elements, and sounds the best in most people's opinions than even the Bose and other offerings. A fantastic, well thought out product.
Cons: It doesn't have aptX bluetooth codec, only A2DP.
Except that when the Lithium battery within the Boom eventually degrades and breaks down (within 2 to 3 years) you won't be able to replace the battery- there by making an honestly awesome, durable, and attractive Bluetooth speaker just an expensive paper weight. If I'm spending $200 on a speaker, I don't want to be required to buy a new one every few years just because Logitec didn't think to make the battery replaceable.
I grabbed one of these near the start of summer to throw in my
job bag, and use when I needed music to listen to on down times. The range is great on that
little guy. Very powerful and things like vocals and instruments sound really
nice. A lot like a more expensive Sonos speaker. I originally had read about it
on Poc's Tech Blog (source:
), which is what led me to give it a try. Now that I am looking at their site,
it looks like they also featured it in their Xmas ("holiday") gift
guide. I say, if you want something portable that is both loud enough for a
large room but also warm enough to enjoy the nicer genres of music, give the
Boom a chance. You will be surprised what it can accomplish with its size.

At Mariposa at Bay Colony "We have a new lease on an active adult lifestyle."
Bonner Carrington,
Building The Culture of Community
Bonner Carrington designs, develops, constructs, and manages apartment homes that are both of high quality and ascribe dignity to anyone who would call them home. Our favorite holding period is forever which is why we operate with a long-term perspective.
We maintain, own, and operate using what we call Highly Intentional Management where average, even above average, is not acceptable. Instead, we intend to be extraordinary, managing and maintaining these communities throughout their useful lives to keep them in good and proper condition so that people feel grounded in homes, apartment homes, as long as this serves them.
How can a lifestyle like this be affordable?
The financing for Mariposa Apartment Homes and other similar communities around the country is structured through a unique Federal program.
