Re: Nintendo Virtual Boy repairs
Expand Messages
- Update: After negotiating a partial rebate from the seller, I decided to hang on to the Virtual Boy. I bought a lot of three untested Virtual Boys on eBay, hopefully I'll get at least one good right display cable out of them, but if not I'll have some spares to attempt the repair on.
Since Nintendo decided for some reason to glue the ribbon cable together rather than solder it, the repairs involve heating the cable (in an oven) to soften the glue so it re-adheres, which is not a permanent fix, or using drain cleaner to remove the glue, then doing the delicate soldering on each trace for a permanent fix.
I'll keep y'all posted on my efforts, and again if anyone has any experience or other input on this, I'd love to hear from you. - Bob

Well, it looks immaculate, but it's got the typical glitchy display problem in the right display. I disassembled it, and it's definitely the adhesive on the cable. I do have the option of sending it back to the seller, but thought I'd check with you guys first to see if anyone's had experience repairing these? Better yet would be if someone had a working cable for the right display for sale? If I can reliably get it fixed for $X, I might go with a partial rebate from the seller, but I'd need to know I could get it fixed and the approximate cost.

It's that time again.....
It's a cold Sunday, so that is the perfect time to turn on the DVR and watch the Housewives I've been recording. It is spring on the calendar, but not outside my window today. We have a winter storm warning. WHAT !!!! I know there was a mild winter, but I am ready for some nice weather so I can be outside!
This past month was so crazy busy for me I have not been to my spinning classes. I hope to get back into it as soon as these grad classes are done!
At school, I have major spring fever now that my observations are done. The next two weeks are state testing weeks, then two months left in the school year.
I hope everyone is having an enjoyable day!

Very easy and versatile dressing - pretty much fat free and packed with antioxidants and vitamin C.
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 2 medium shallots, finely minced
- 3 c. raspberries, frozen or fresh (if frozen, not in syrup)
- 1 c. balsamic vinegar
- 2 TB honey
- 1/2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
- salt and pepper to taste
- Heat oil in large heavy bottomed pot over medium heat. Add shallots, and stir until fragrant. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a slow boil. Turn down to a simmer and reduce by 1/3. Check flavor (sweetness, s&p, etc.) and adjust if needed. Let cool to just above room temperature, and puree in small batches in blender. Pour into storage container and let sit for a few hours for flavors to meld.

Bruges is a very interesting historical city with UNESCO status. Dine in the local bars and drink a variety of Belgian beers
The city of Bruges is quaint with cobbled squares and numerous museums and places of interest. The styles of architecture is a thing to see and the ornate buildings around the main Market Square look like something from a fairy tale with their castle-like frontages. There are numerous interesting things hidden away in the side streets such as quaint souvenir shops for presents, also a homemade biscuit shop where you can mix and match your choice! Obtain a city guide and do a bit of exploring on foot. Climb to the top of The Belfry to enjoy views across Bruges. Wednesday mornings is Market Day in the main Market Square, browse a selection of stalls selling fruit and vegetables, hot chicken and local cheeses, also many of the locals take advantage of this market which offers a good choice of fresh produce.
Places of Interest
Visit the Basilica of the Holy Blood and see the treasures on show within which includes a cask with precious stones which must be priceless. Also very interesting was the Chocolate Museum,Choco-Story Wijnzakstraat 2 (Sint-Jansplein) 8000 Bruges Tel : 050/61.22.37 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com where you can learn about the story of the discovery of chocolate through the centuries through to the present day. Don't miss the giant egg on display in the staircase as you go up the floors in the Museum. Don't miss the demonstration at the end of the museum of the way praline chocolates are made and get free sample to taste. Browse in the museum shop to buy presents for the people back home. Visit the last remaining working brewery in Bruges and Brewery Tour at Huisbrouwerij De Halve Maan Walplein 26 B - 8000 Bruges Phone +32 50 44 42 22 e-mail email@example.com and sample the Zot Belgian Beer!! Very interesting was the Tour of the Brewery and detailed explanation of how the local beer is made. There is also a nice Cafe within the Brewery building where you can have some lunch.
There is also a Windmill Museum in Bruges, Sint Janshuysmolen Mill built in 1770, along the canal path, but it is only open May to September each year but it is worth a visit just to get a photograph or two if you are visiting out of season. Canal boat rides are also available in the Summer season as Bruges is also known as "The Venice of the North", and this is a good opportunity to get more photographs of the sights from different angles as you travel around on the canal boats.
Bars, Local Food and Souvenirs
Bierbrasserie Cambrinus Philipstockstraat 19, 8000 Brugge Tel: 050/33 23 28 e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com is a very good bar and restaurant with a huge selection of Belgian Beers with a menu like a telephone directory to choose from! The food is also very good, you get loads for your money try the spaghetti bolognaise you get huge plateful and very cheap at £8 per dish, the and the atmosphere is very friendly at this bar, we stayed most of the evening and enjoyed sampling the endless supply of Belgian beers.
Off the main Market Square there are plenty of side street shops that sell delicious Belgian waffles with various toppings for you to sample if you require a snack. Very popular are the numerous lace shops in Bruges, where you can buy anything from lace tablecloths and napkins to lace-finished aprons and cushion covers, these are a nice hand-made souvenir to remind you of your visit to Bruges.
Hotel Accommodation
A very good hotel where we stayed is the Hotel ter Reien (Langestraat 1, B-8000 Bruges) where we were given a canal-side room and very good continental breakfast was provided every morning in the Breakfast Room at the rear of the hotel. There are numerous restaurants in walking distance to the hotel, so you have a good selection in the immediate local area for your evening meal as we had Bed and Breakfast only at the hotel. If you go to this hotel don't forget to ask for your Discount Voucher because you get 10% off your next visit and it can also be used by family and friends.
Getting There
Bruges is easily reached by Eurostar from London to Brussels, then by a connecting fast train to Bruges. Eurostar tickets are valid on all Belgian stations. Eurostar services run regularly from London St. Pancras and you can connect with train services from the North of England which terminate at St. Pancras station. I advise booking your tickets for UK trains well in advance to take full advantage of any discounts which may be available.
Getting Around
It is very easy to get around the city on the local bus service and this connects with the trains as the Bus Station is next to the Rail Station, and many cars and vans are allowed only in certain parking zones in the old part of the city, so you could hire a horse and carriage and go for a scenic drive around the old city to take things at a slower pace. The horses are very well looked after and even have a way of keeping the mess from going on the streets as they go along!! Another of the special Belgian delicacies are the potato fries from the kiosks in the main Market Square and they have a variety of sauces such as tomato ketchup and mayonnaise, also very popular are moule (Mussels) and chips which is a local dish to try at most restaurants in the city.
Would love to return soon!

Ah, yes... Jason Isaacs. One of the hottest men to mostly play bad guys alive today...
Just caught the first ep of his new series "Case Histories" where he plays a detective. There were a couple nice shots of him shirtless. Very nice form. So here are a couple of caps for your delectation.
I've had a lust-on for Jason Isaacs for some years now. Having both him and Heath Ledger in one movie nearly gave me a coronary ("Patriot", btw, if you're curious). He also played Captain Hook/Dad in the mid-'90's version of "Peter Pan".
When I first saw "The Patriot" in theatres, I fell madly in love with Isaacs. He played the nasiest of nasties in that, and people thought I was insane to be obssessed with him, but god did I adore him. Gorgeous man, especially as a villain. And ya know, it didnt occur to me til just now how much Jon Hamm resembles him...
Mr. Isaacs is going to be in a mid-season series on US television this fall. I don't remember the title, but he plays a guy who seems to be living simultaneously in two different parallel realities - one in which his wife died in a car wreck, and one in which his son did. Preliminary previews are at least semi-promising in the "unclothed" department.
Series title is "Awake"

Just ok
Pros: Nothing stuck out,
Cons: The description said airport pickup, but it was off airport, which was extremely disappointing. When I got to the location there were 20 people in line and only 2 people working. From the time we took the shuttle to driving out the lot it took over an hour. If I would have known it was off airport I would have chose a different company even if the price was a little higher.

Pleasant service, even during the Eclipse rush

Thank you Tatiana
Pros: Tatiana the service rep in Portland who helped me found a great deal and a great car from my road trip. Originally I was told driving from the US to Canada would be expensive as I am picking up and dropping off in another country. She was able to make it a smooth and easy process and upgraded me to a hybrid to use for the long road trip. Tatiana was great.
Cons: When I returned the car in Calgary the budget staff there overcharged me. I had to explain that I had returned the car early and needed to be credited for those dates. I had to do the math for them to show that I was being overcharged before they finally agreed and adjusted my total bill.

Pros: Good price for an early booking, plus a new car. But..........read on.
Cons: I booked on Budget, not knowing they transferred me over to "Payless". Got on the Budget airport shuttle, stood in line for 20 minutes only to be told I was at the wrong location. I was told that, if I rented from this new location, price would be 3 times as much!! Back to airport, etc. I was livid. Returned the car 2 days early and wanted to request a credit. They were closed! Key drop off only. Horrible.

Pros: Brand new Subaru Outback was a great car to drive.
Cons: Waited in line for more than a half an hour even though we had reserved online. The only other complaint is that a Ford Escape was advertised, but it was a Subaru Outback or Crosstrek that was available. The Subarus just function more like cars than SUVs, and it didn't seem equivalent as advertised.

Unsure if I will rent from them again....
Pros: The unlimited mileage, the price, and that's about it.
Cons: The service: they did not say that they had no shuttle service to/from the airport. I could've rented from one that had shuttle service. Ended up having to take Uber to go back to the airport (unnecessary added expense for the trip). Upon arriving, the guy at the counter said they did not have any of the type of car that I had reserved and offered me a tiny smart car. This is the first time I've been offered something smaller instead of an upgrade for them not having the car I reserved. When he did offer an upgrade, it was going to be for a extra fee. I also didn't appreciate having to do a self-inspection of the car for any damage. That's something the employee should do, or at least accompany the renter and do the inspection together (like at most other rental companies). I will not rent from that location when I visit the area again and definitely will not recommend them.

Budget Car Rental, get experience!
Pros: My car was ready, clean, gassed up, drove like a dream, never had a mechanical issue and was super comfy. The people at Budget were unclear about where I could drop off the car at return but they teamed up, came through in the end and couldn't have been more genuinely concerned about my issue. I originally picked the car up in Downtown Portland. OR. At the end of my rental period, 9 days, i called Budget and asked if I could return at the airport, they said "sure". What they didn't say was that there were several locations they used near the airport and they didn't tell me which location would be best. So, I was driving from on location to the other using "maps" and one location was for trucks, one for repairs and maintenance, one for washing etc. Finally i said to one Budget employee that I was really getting late for my flight because of the drop off situation. He stopped what he was doing, called his boss who said to let me drop off the car right on the spot and that they'd get my receipt ready in seconds so i could leave. They did and it worked out well. No up charge. The location I dropped off the car at was not set up for returns but they made it happen and made it happen with joy. Nice folks!

$300 for a 24 hour rental. Not happy
Pros: I had reserved my rental prior to our vacation to Oregon for the Holidays. I needed to pick a car up in Portland and return in Eugene Oregon which ended up being a little pricier than I hoped for one day but I was willing to pay $128 for the convenience of the rental. I was shocked when I saw Budget had charged me almost $300 instead of what I was quoted!!
Cons: For some reason I ended up being charged almost $300 when the original amount was only supposed to be $128. What a rip off! I will never rent from budget ever again.

Price listed on Kayak website radically different
Pros: Great car. Nissan Ultima. However, was never able to enable BlueTooth.
Cons: Kayak price listed was not accurate AT ALL. Agent couldn't even find my reservation when I first checked in, even with the confirmation number I was sent from Kayak. Addition of "insurance" listed on Kayak site was $9, but was $50 at the rental agency. Very confusing. Ended up paying roughly $80-$100 more than expected.

Terrible service in portland
Pros: Nothing
Cons: The guy in charge wasn't in the office. He tried to have me sign without inspecting the car (I found numerous scratches and dents that weren't marked). To top it off I asked if I could modify reservation to pick up/drop off earlier. He said it would be no problem, as long as I dropped it off before 24 hours was up. Ended up being charged double what the quote was, and having to argue with the manager at another location (where I dropped off) and calling in to customer service to get things fixed. Despicable dude in 330 Washington in Portland. Highly recommend to not use this company

Long wait for a car
Pros: Got a great deal for an SUV.
Cons: When booking said it was at the airport but had to take a shuttle to get the car then waited in line for about an hour. Kept trying to up sell us on a different cars because only had a few ready. Chose an SUV for a bit more money but was a good deal. Car was not very clean even though it looked like they just ran it through the wash.

Didn't honor terms once train was late

I was told that, if arriving after 6:30pm (which we did), to go to the airport Budget instead of the original place. They would have the car we ordered (the guy checked). So we did exactly that. Oops. Did not have the car we ordered. And wanted 2x as much for the cars there. We said 'Adios' and took a Lyft to Enterprise where we found a great car of the type we wanted for $50 less than the original Budget quote. Next time? We'll go straight to Enterprise.

POOR timing & secondary location
Pros: Primary location agents saved me a lot of unnecessary trouble & expense.
Cons: Rental location was ID'd by address but no mention of location not being served by by airport shuttle since it was not their primary location. More importantly, the ID'd rental location apparently closes on Saturday at 2:00 but hours were not given in my advance rental info. I only found out about the need for a taxi to the secondary Budget location & their closing time when I arrived at the primary Budget location which is open 24/7.

Budget should be more flexible when they know they
Pros: Price
Cons: I thought I was renting at an airport location. I arrived and was told that I made my reservation at a downtown location and would cost at least twice as much to rent from the airport location. I took a cab downtown with my luggage, carseat, wife and child. Once there they let me know I would be unable to pick it up until my reserved time of noon (although I am fairly certain I made my reservation time at 10:30am, but had no proof of that). There were three staff people and a little wait at 10:30am. I returned at 11:45 and two gentleman were in a similar situation as me, hoping to get their car ASAP but would have to wait until noon. Since it was a hot tiny room I went for a walk instead of waiting and when I returned at 5 to noon the room was full and there was no order among those who have waited. Also, once the clock struck noon the computers all reset. It was after 1 pm before my car was rented. I could see a printout on the desk of the planned reservations. They knew the would get slammed at noon, why didn't they have more staff or just allow people who got there a little bit early to get their car sooner? The staff was helpful and patient considering what they were up against but the company was pretty terrible to allow this to occur. I thought Budget was a national company but I have rented from some hole in the wall type places that were more organized than this.

Okay, not Good
Pros: Drop off lot easy to find.
Cons: Pick up slow. Drop of people disinterested in helping getting us out of there. Chevy Equinox, which we had for a month, has poor visibility and turning ratio, making it clumsy (if not risky) to drive.

Clean rides but beware short supplies
Pros: I liked how the staff I was able to assist me fairly quickly when picking up my reservation. I believe I had the same treatment as the other customers despite being under 25 myself. They were patient with any questions on renting conditions I had before I signed anything. Before I left the lot, they did a thorough overview of any exterior damage on the vehicle with me and reviewed how to avoid additional extra charges upon my drop off (i.e. late return, return with less fuel than a initially provided, cleaning of interior).The car I was given had a clean and comfortable interior. Mileage in the car was low and ran pretty well with no issues while I was on the road. The return pamphlet was easy to read (clear language and normal-sized font), easy to fill out, it really streamlined my drop off visit.
Cons: I'm really glad I was able to walk out with my reservation. The facility had a shortage of cars my day of pickup, but thankfully it was I was able to arrive early before the economy size cars had run out about the time I was schedule for my pickup. This half an hour early pick up of course threw off my intended drop off time to incorporate my early pickup time but reflected upon my estimated fees. My vacation plans were not thrown off and I was able to return the vehicle a few minutes before the exact to two-day mark. I believe others who had reservations the same day as me but later on did not have as much luck, the staff was able to clarify that reservations with second parties aren't necessarily guaranteed because of demand. I believe an additional follow up from Kayak with the renting facility and an email of warning would have been very helpful for these individuals who were unlucky enough to unfulfill their reservation.

Pros: Employees were extremely friendly and kind.
Cons: Printer was suuuper old and slow. Took 45 mins to get checked out, even with only 1 person ahead of us in line. Not the employees' fault though; the computer systems and printer were ancient, a lot of it has to be done by hand, etc. Get with the times, Budget!

Pros: They took $15 dollars off of my $45 dollar rental.

3.6 Mediocre

Kayak insurance is not Budget insurance
Pros: We got the car we wanted, worked out well overall.
Cons: Budget rep explained that our online insurance purchase was third party... Should have save the money and purchased at pickup Budget rep explained we would be driving through a storm and offered a choice of two different SUVs at an additional charge because of 4wd. Upon further inspection every available SUV on the lot was FWD. We don't appreciate the dishonesty.

Pros: Representatives did respond to my request to be charged the agreed amount, and refunded the erroneous extra charges.
Cons: Upon returning, the representatives at Budget tried several times to get me to drop off the keys and leave without a receipt, saying they would email it. I insisted upon receiving a paper invoice with the total charges. I had the rental agreement papers that i had signed upon pickup with me and put them on the counter, the representative took them off the counter and threw them away without asking me if she could even see them, and then proceeded to charge me $91 more than my quoted price and rental agreement. The money was refunded after my rental agreement was retrieved from the trash can, but I question the integrity of Budget car rentals due to the representative's actions of trying to get me to leave without seeing the charged amount and get rid of the papers with the correct prices.
5.6 Okay
2 Nov 2015
Pros: Small drop off location, easy to deal with.
Cons: When I made the reservation, there was no mention of extra mileage charges, which were revealed to me upon the return of the car. I am unimpressed with the way Budget advertised they're deals online without revealing all charges up front.

IUC Monday Morning: Angie Chickenpox???; Lilo in London; Scientology Detox???; IUC 2014 Hotel of Year: Kempinski Hotel Corvinus
Angie has chickenpox – misses premiere!
Creed's Scott Stapp sad downward spiral
Lilo says she'll never move back to L.A.
Travolta's Scientology Sauna Detox program get U.S. government funding
IUC Travel: Budapest is Europe's hidden gem. It encompasses the chic culture of Paris and the incredible gastronomy of Italy – cleaner and safer than any city I've been to. If you visit Budapest it is imperative to stay at Kempinski Hotel Corvinus – a knockout from first glance with a modern design like a dreamy luxurious mirage providing a palatial spa retreat, smack in the middle of Europe's most up and coming, vibrant city. Rooms are decked out with warm decor, cool art, extremely comfortable bedding and first class bathrooms. The spa on the second floor is stellar – designed to invoke the feelings of an incredible holistic experience, with various steam, sauna and massage rooms. You can lounge out after in the decadent infinity pool, a welcome respite from the cold winter weather outside. Sample the best sushi and asian fusion food on the planet at Nobu Budapest, located on the hotel's ground floor. I've been to several Nobu's around the world, but have never enjoyed the Nobu experience as much as I did in Budapest. Kempinski is a top notch luxury hotel that pampers its guests with class every which way. For example, on Sunday it offers a special Breakfast at Tiffany's that perhaps is the most unique breakfast experience I've had in years – featuring a fashion show, the most tasty breakfast you can dream of and of course the classic Audrey Hepburn film running throughout. With its refined international food and incredible amenities I hereby award Kempinski Hotel Corvinus the IUC 2014 Award as Hotel Of The Year. Bravo Kempinski!!!!

Great posting Ian. For you to nominate that hotel as best one in 2014 it must be spectacular because you travel so much. I am going to Europe in March and will definitely book a few nights there. I could use a good few days at its spa. Thank u so much for letting us know about this paradise. Happy holidays to you and yoursReply

Angie I think is faking ill because she didn't get nominations she thought she'd get. Great article Ian on Kempinski Hotel. I have stayed at other Kempinski Hotels and had a good experience. But this one sounds like its the best. Can't wait to go to Budapest and stay there. I think I'll go in May when it warms up.Reply

Back in the day this A list political figure had sex with Audrey Hepburn when she was doing work for the UN and he thought he was the king of the world. To relive his glory days he has been making his B+ list reality host from an A+ list cable reality franchise that you can watch and not feel slimy watching, wear her hair up. He wants her to cut it but she is refusing. She never wears her hair up and is suddenly doing it almost every day for him. She must be getting a lot of money.

I think HH is saying that AJ is "ill" (not chicken pox, obviously), that she is crazy and/or she is somehow connected to some weird crap (a la Scott Stapp), that she should or will leave the country, and that she is in detox right now.
Ian doesn't link articles for no reason.Reply
said on December 15th, 2014 at 3:18 pm
And OMG!!!! I watched the Director's Roundtable and about DIED of embarrassment for AJ. She was so out of her league there. The older guy (Lee, I think) and Nolan both could barely contain themselves. Lee DID pick on her, but then said he was "encouraging" her. LOL. Nolan had to cover his mouth to keep from laughing. After she went off on one of her rants, Lee asked her "Besides all that, are you a good director?" LOL. Sad, sad, sad. If it were anyone else I would feel sorry for them. But she sits there at that table with her superior smug face on, her flirty eyes and her "I'm so beautiful" attitude. OMG. I wanted to slap her. So out of place and awkward … amongst professional, REAL directors.Reply
said on December 15th, 2014 at 4:54 pm
Yes film-making is so tough that there is no way these seasoned, battle-hardened, relentlessly focused directors would ever listen to an actress' guff without cutting through it. She didn't make any decisions on that movie, you can tell, because she would be able to tell you about them in detail – she would have had to agonise over them at length. She would also know exactly how many days they were shooting for (not "I don't know was it 46 or 47). If you're a Producer or a Director you would have set up, scripted and budgeted for those days in infinitesimal detail, every minute counts and can make the difference between getting an essential element of the story or the programme and not getting it at all thereby totally effing up the whole production and having to do costly re-shoots (sometimes you literally can't re-shoot things because of certain circumstances). It is mega-stressful and believe me no-one has time when shooting to go home and play board games with their children – when you'e not actually filming you are prepping for the next day. I think she tries to say very little in this discussion because she knows whatever she says will catch her out. She had obviously been prepped for the favourite film bit but then gave herself away when she had never heard of his other work. Angelina Jolie is the ultimate imposter!Reply
said on December 15th, 2014 at 4:59 pm
Oh yes and may I add you really cannot "learn as you go along" – unless you have someone there directing it for you!Reply
said on December 15th, 2014 at 6:00 pm
Meant to say those directors must have been pissed that the acclaimed female director who was worthy of sharing their discussion was bumped in favour of this pretender – just shows how much power you can wield if you have your PR controlling the world.
I have to say Angelina is becoming increasingly hilarious these days what with the honorary damehood and showing up at a Director's round table – she is literally turning in to Forrest Gump!Reply

I always believe that the hotel and recommendations are part of Ian's clues but harder to determine. Breakfast at Tiffany's…Holly Golightly is arrested for association with a drug smuggling ring at the end of the movie. Hmmm…Reply

Simplify Your Life4
I recently returned from a 3 week vacation in Ireland and Scotland. During that time, I changed the ordinary flow of my days. I felt like I had taken charge of my life again. Simplify, Simplify, Simplify were the words that kept ringing in my head. I checked email only once a week in order to follow an important project I'm involved in. I ignored clocks and ate when I was hungry and slept when I was tired. The result? I came back rested, calm and a few pounds lighter (despite the daily Guinness and whiskey!).
What does simply simplifying mean to you? How can you focus on what you actually want and need to be happy and secure. I've always wanted to live in a small town where I could walk to get most of the services I need -and now I am here and loving it. I walk to get groceries, to the farmers market, to my hairdresser and dentist and to several great restaurants. I combine car trips so I'm rarely on the road more than 1 day every 2-3 weeks.
Sometimes small changes in the way you spend your time and money are enough to simplify your life to your greatest satisfaction. Other times, it requires a bigger move like relocating.
To simplify your life, you'll probably need to take a look at your thoughts about money. I'm all for having plenty to do the things that delight your heart along with enough to save and share with your spiritual community and/or charities. But exactly how much is enough for you? It's going to vary a lot depending on what part of the country you live in, what your hobbies are, how many children you have….well you get the picture.
When I took stock of what I really needed to be happy while living a simplified life, I was pleasantly surprised. It's quite doable and I've been able to create work that supports a lifestyle I love. What is of high value to me is time to pay attention to my "inner life" because I firmly believe that our inner life creates our outer life. Without quiet time, my life feels chaotic. Other high values for me are spending time with people I love and enjoy, reading, learning, and traveling. That's about all I need!
So take some time today to list out what would make you happiest. What would an immensely satisfying life look like for you? Chances are you'll be wanting to simplify, simplify, simplify too!
Would love to read your thoughts on this blog so go ahead and leave a comment here about how you plan to simplify your life or how you've already done so.

The important to understand and implement SPSS is according to how good that you are at researching and understanding the underlying results. Nonetheless, you'll need to understand as to how you'll be able to calculate the outcomes working with this software. This is not tough too as there are numerous online SPSS instruction courses available currently to help you within this regard.
So what do you precisely need to know ahead of studying data analysis employing SPSS? You will find just three basic ideas. Very first, the ability to distinguish among independent and dependent variable second revolves about measuring the variables involved as well as the third will be the kind of study design and style you might be using.
In terms of understanding independent and dependent variables, there is only 1 issue that desires to be kept in thoughts. Independent variable may be the 1 that may be below your handle. One example is if you are researching about the types of Tv programmes becoming watches inside the 8-9 slot by 5 men and women then the five men and women are your independent variables while their responses are dependent variables.
The following point which you must take care is exactly how you might be measuring the variables involved. In this case you have three alternatives, Nominal, Ordinal and also the Continuous. In nominal you've just the numbers involved, in the Ordinal you can also rank the numbers when by means of the Continuous solution you not merely rank the numbers, but could also define the distance between the measured points. A general SPSS coaching will help you get a hold of it.
The last thing would be the idea of study design. Right here frequently two designs are employed. A single is in between the participants model and also the other will be the with out participants model. Within the initial approach, the researcher compares two separate or unrelated groups of design when within the second one, very same participants are used for comparing unique issues.
I hope you may have got hold from the fundamental ideas and now can pursue any online or classroom SPSS education course to understand this statistical software program improved. It can be only applying statistical ideas to take data evaluation related decisions, whilst pressing a couple of buttons by way of your pc.
