Your TV is made by Daewoo and is distributed by Daytek. If you call the 800 number on the warranty card you will reach Daytek.
So, what you need to know is this:
#1. A lot of new products won't have a website available. That does not say anything to their quality or the company, just that you've bought a new product and you're one of the first purchasers.
#2. A lot of times if you buy a "no name" TV, you're actually getting components inside the TV that are made by brand name manufacturers. For example, "Prima" uses LG panels in some of their plasma TVs (as well as Daytek). How do I know this? Because I'm the authorized service provider for Daytek, and Prima and quite a few other "no name" TVs, and I've been working on LCD and Plasma since they came out, as well as having worked in the electronics repair industry for over 20 years. I own an Insignia 42" LCD and am quite happy with it.
#3. Most new products that have remote controls will not have codes available for them no matter what brand of universal remote you buy. You have to wait for the people who make the universal remote to have time to make a code for this new brand of TV. This can take up to a year for cable companies, and cheaper universal remotes may never get the code. Expensive universal remotes may be able to have their firmware updated through the internet, so adoption of new codes for new products may happen faster.
#4. Stores like Walmart and Costco are excellent places to buy products like this because they usually have a "no questions asked" return policy if you get the TV back to the store within the stores time limit for returns (some stores are 15 days, some are 30 days, phone the store and ask them). I had purchased a 40" Digistar LCD TV from Walmart what had a flickering problem, I took it back the next day without any problem at all. Then I bought a 42" Insignia Plasma TV from Future Shop that I wasn't happy with. I took it back 3 days later and had no problem at all. As long as you know the stores policy for returns and follow the policy, you won't have any problems either.
#5. Try to avoid buying big-ticket items from smaller stores unless you know their return policies. Some smaller stores will not accept returns on LCD monitors, TVs or plasma TVs but instead require you to handle any problems through the manufacturer.
#6. Best bet it to call Daytek and ask them if they know of any universal remotes that work on that particular model.

SOURCE: ive got a rca universal remote without a code search button how do i program it?
If none of the codes work then we have two other solutions:
1. Searching For Your Code
If you have tried all of the set-up codes for your brand of equipment ,or yourbrand is not listed, and you are still not able to get the unit to respond, trythe following procedure to search for your code.
If you don't find a code that works, the remote will flash four times when youreach the end of all the codes for this device type.
Make sure that the remote is pointed at your device during the search, You may have to press this sequences of buttons up to 100 times to search the entire library of codes.
2. Learn the buttons from the original
Line up your original remote and the head-to-head before completing thefollowing steps.
Now you can repeat steps 3 through 5 to learn other functions onto other keysor press and hold SETUP until the Cinema's red light flashes twice to lock inyour new feature. (If the red light does not blink twice, stop and repeat stepsthrough 6).
To test the new feature, press and release the device key in which the newfeature was learned followed by the key on which the feature was learned
More help for programming your remote can be found here:
Hope that helps! Should you have any further questions,please feel free to post them here.

· Set the "Mode Switch" to TV.
· Press and hold the "Mute" button and the "Select" button until the visible LED blinks twice.
· Enter the 5 digit Code above.
· Try your new code and tell us how it worked!
You'll have to settle for that, use the middle power key in the tv device to power on & off the tv.

Design: Phase IIa prospective multicenter trial conducted at eight clinical sites through the AIDS Malignancy Consortium. Methods: HIV-positive patients with biopsy-proven high-grade PAIN that was at least 3 cm2 were enrolled. PAIN biopsy specimens were assessed for human papillomavirus (HPV) using PCR and type-specific HPV probing. Participants applied 1% topical cidofovir to PAIN and VIN (if present) for six 2-week cycles. Results were designated as complete response (CR), partial response (PR) (>50% reduction in size), stable disease, or progressive disease (PD). Results: Twenty-four men and nine women (eight with high-grade VIN as well) were enrolled. Mean age was 44 years and mean CD4+ cell count was 412 cells/μl. HPV DNA (most commonly HPV16) was detected in all pretreatment study specimens. Twenty six (79%) participants completed treatment per protocol: CR, five (15%); PR, 12 (36%), stable disease, seven (21%); PD, two (6%) (one with a superficially invasive cancer and one with new area of high-grade PAIN). Treatment was well tolerated with most common adverse events being mild to moderate affecting lesional skin: pain/burning/irritation (25 patients) and ulceration (13 patients). Conclusion: Topical cidofovir had 51% efficacy in the short-term treatment of high-grade PAIN and VIN with acceptable toxicity in HIV-positive individuals. Randomized control studies with more prolonged treatment courses and longer follow-up to assess the durability of the response are needed. aDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Boston University Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts bMount Sinai School of Medicine, New York cAlbert Einstein College of Medicine, Albert Einstein Cancer Center, Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx dUniversity of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, California eDivision of Infectious Diseases, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, New York fUniversity of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas gDepartment of Pathology, University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, California hBeth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts iVirginia Mason Medical Center and University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, USA.

4 Elements of the Perfect Price List
Are you able to spot a bargain when you see it? Can you look at a sales flyer or a coupon and know that it's a good deal?
I can't. Or, at least, I couldn't until fairly recently. What helped was putting together my own – perfect – price list.
The concept of a price list is old and simple: it's a list of grocery items (or items purchased regularly from any store) and how much they cost. The idea is that you take your list with you when you're shopping and, if you find that the price has gone down, you can stock up.
The old way of doing it is rather tedious and potentially a waste of time. To get started, there are lists of "standard" items you should track so you print out a list, grab a pen and clipboard, and then head to the store for a fun-filled afternoon of writing down prices. By the end of your trip, you have a hand-scrawled page of numbers (for items you may never purchase), and you're supposed to remember to bring it with you every time you go shopping. Oh yeah, and if you lose that list, you can start over!
Anyway, there are several ways to make a price list -oh- so much more useful that it's actually worth the time and effort. Since I started mine last year, I can safely say that it has saved me several hundred dollars in grocery costs. It has also given me a good sense of how much items should cost and which stores generally have the best deals on certain items. Jonathan and I still refer to it at least once a week.
So, with all that said, what are the factors that contribute to making the best price list for you?
1. It only lists items YOU purchase
Why bother tracking prices for items you don't buy? Just grab your most recent receipts and build your list from those. If you don't keep your receipts around long enough, plan to start after your next shopping trip. Sure, you can write down prices while you're at the store, but I'd rather kick back at home and do it when I'm not surrounded by busy shoppers.
2. It does the calculations for you
You can't really compare a 5 lb bag of beans to a 25 lb bag of beans without figuring out the per-unit pricing. More stores are helpful these days by displaying these numbers on their price tags, but you don't see it everywhere. Instead of doing the calculations by hand, enter them into a spreadsheet. Type in the name of the item in one column, the total price in another, and then the number of units in the third column. Enter a simple "Bx/Cx" formula and copy / paste it down the column and you're set. Also, if you feel it's worth repeating an item under different units [such as per ounce vs. per pound pricing], go ahead. Another benefit of using a spreadsheet is sorting. Enter the items as you wish, and then once you're done, have the spreadsheet sort them alphabetically. Easy enough!
3. It's backed up and accessible online
MJ has already explained the many benefits of Google Docs, and they bear repeating. Uploading your price list spreadsheet into Google Docs is free, it is platform independent (Windows / Mac / Linux), it is backed up in case your computer crashes, and you can access it from [almost] any internet-enabled device. If you get regular sales flyers via e-mail, you're one click away from your price list to see if those sales are worth a trip to the store. You can even share it with others and let them contribute to it if you'd like. Once it's on Google Docs, all you need is an internet connection to view or update your list.
4. It fits in your pocket and goes everywhere with you
This is possibly the most important factor. About once a month I use the conversion apps from PocketMod to print my 8 page spreadsheet onto one sheet of paper that folds into an awesome little booklet. It's always in my back pocket, ready for any planned or unplanned trip to the store. Say you're hanging with some friends and end up at their local Asian or Mexican market – why not whip out your list and see if there's anything worth getting? It's also a great time to see how that store compares to the stores you typically visit. And if PocketMod doesn't work for you, it's still possible on most platforms to do a multi-page print from PDF and then cut & staple the sheets into a small booklet. Take advantage of the fact that your printer can print much smaller text than you can write while still being easy to read. This helps cut down the bulk of trying to stuff 4 to 10 sheets of paper in your pockets, and makes it much more likely that you'll carry it with you everywhere.
Once my price list had enough items on it to make some comparisons, I was shocked. Some stores (such as the grocery store closest to my home) charge 50-300 percent more for everything… including expired and damaged goods in the clearance baskets! I also found that many "sales" listed in sales flyers weren't sales at all… and buying items at Costco or Sam's Club doesn't necessarily give you the best deal. I learned quite a bit just by writing down some numbers.
Even after a year, I'm quite thankful for this list and use it regularly. It was definitely worth the little bit of time that went into it.

Themes and Meanings
(Critical Guide to Poetry for Students)
Rimbaud not only believed that the poet was destined for greatness by a gift for revealing ideas previously unknown, he also saw the process through which the poet would gain this enlightenment as extraordinarily painful. In a letter he wrote to his friend Paul Demeny on May 15, 1871, Rimbaud described the process of creation thus: "The Poet makes himself into a seer by a long, immense and reasoned disordering of all his senses. All forms of love, suffering, and madness." The poet must undergo the great pain of this process because of his duty to fulfill the poetic potential he senses vested within him.
Descriptive elements throughout "Vowels" recapitulate this creative process. In the first quatrain, the adjectives parallel the first efforts of the poet, with latentes and subsequently éclatantes suggesting first the latent nature of his talent and then its bursting forth; cruelles ("cruel") brings him to the suffering of disordered senses that must accompany this birth. The sang craché ("spit-out blood") and the ivresse (drunkenness) of the second quatrain echo the letter to Demeny in which Rimbaud wrote that the poet "uses up all poisons within himself."
While poets at Rimbaud's time sometimes sought inspiration in hallucinogenic substances, his biographers have indicated that Rimbaud found more physical sickness than mental exaltation in these...

2011: A Big Year For Space Exploration
Some might be inclined to think 2011 was a pretty bad year for space, what with the U.S. space program shutting down. While the Atlantis marked the last mission in NASA's decades-long space shuttle program, the agency still managed to have other significant launches this year. Crafts visited Mercury, a massive asteroid known as Vesta, and the moon. Another left for Jupiter, and the Voyager 1 spacecraft sailed out of our solar system. Guest host Rebecca Sheir talks to Neil deGrasse Tyson, head of the Hayden Planetarium, about whether all that made 2011 a good year for space exploration.
2011 was, of course, a big year for a lot of things, but not just here on Earth. In the spring, NASA's Messenger probe became the first spacecraft to arrive in orbit around Mercury. Over the summer, we saw groundbreaking photos of a giant asteroid nearing Earth. A craft left for Jupiter in August, another for Mars in November, and throughout the year, Voyager 1 sailed farther and farther out of our solar system. What excited Neil deGrasse Tyson most about space in 2011?
NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON: Everything.
SHEIR: He's head of New York City's Hayden Planetarium. And he says a lot of space watchers shed a tear over the biggest astro event of the year, the end of NASA's Space Shuttle program, which eclipsed some other big events in space science.
TYSON: I would say for me, the most ambitious among these missions is the Mars Science Laboratory dubbed Curiosity. And the Mars Science Laboratory is going to do experiments to see if the conditions on the Martian surface can sustain organics, which would be the building blocks for life. It's a whole other round of questions that we now get to ask about the surface of Mars.
SHEIR: Let's move on to a slightly larger planet, then, Jupiter. We've got Juno, that's the spacecraft heading up there. It won't be there for another five years, really?
TYSON: Yeah. Jupiter's far - you know, these things are far away, and we don't know how to move very fast. Interesting thing about Jupiter, Jupiter actually gives more energy out than it receives from the sun. There's a huge, monstrous magnetic field and radiation belts. So any time you go to investigate it, first, you have to have specially, what they call hardened electronics that can survive in these harsh environments. And then you want to actually make the measurements, things like the magnetic field, the radiation flux, the chemistry of the atmosphere.
And so these missions to Mercury, to Jupiter, they're all equipped with the sweep of experiments just to try to give us some understanding beyond just the spec view that telescopes give us.
SHEIR: So looking at exoplanet research, scientists announced this month they'd found Kepler-22b, a planet outside our solar system orbiting a star in the so-called Goldilocks Zone where water might be present. Now that it's been found, what would you say is next?
TYSON: Yeah. So we knew that we'd find planets around other stars, but the Holy Grail among the planets would be an Earth-like planet, and you've got it. And so now, that's where you might send radio signals to see if there's any intelligent life there. One problem there is that, first, Earth-like planet in the Goldilocks Zone is 600 light-years away. So you could send a signal today, and we'd get a reply 1,200 years later.
SHEIR: Oh, no.
TYSON: And what were we doing on Earth 1,200 years ago, you know? So right now, it's sort of a philosophical interest that there might be life there, but it's not much we know how to do about it if there is.
SHEIR: Neil, what do you hope will be accomplished in space science over this next year?
TYSON: Oh, one year is not - I got to think in longer timeframes than that. You're thinking like annual report question.
TYSON: I have to think cosmically, excuse me. So in the next five, 10 years, 20 years, I think we'll be equipped to answer definitely whether life ever thrived in our backyard. I think the Mars Science Laboratory will lead that effort. By the way, and if our backyard does not have life, the galaxy is vast. And if you looked at an image of how far we have explored and how far our radio signals have reached, that's what we call a radio bubble, it's 80 light-years across, that bubble is tiny compared with the 100,000 light-year diameter of our Milky Way galaxy. So I'd be disappointed, but I'd say let's keep looking.
SHEIR: Neil, deGrasse Tyson is director of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space in New York City. Thanks so much, Neil, and Happy New Year.
TYSON: Oh, thank you very much.

Apple (AAPL, $388.66) reported another blowout quarter yesterday, which, based on the company's rapid year-over-year earnings growth, shouldn't come as a surprise to anybody.
Morgan Stanley has an Overweight rating on Apple, with a price target of $468. "Key catalysts over the next six months include: 1) launch of Mac OS X Lion; 2) launch of iCloud (Fall 2011); 3) new iPhone with possible price cuts on older versions in September; 4)new iPad launch with possible price cut this Fall; and 5) improving component costs and manufacturing yields which put upward pressure on margins or at the very least offset the negative impact from revenue deferrals and lower iPhone/iPad prices." — Morgan Stanley Research, July 20, 2011

if the gop hated czars so much
why did they appoint one in benton harbor, michigan...stripping away the democratic process for its citizens?
benton harbor's finances are a mess. how could they not be in a town stripped of jobs and hope? so, the state has stripped its residents of their democracy. in what is accurately termed "fiscal martial law," the state has named a czar to run the city. that appointee, joseph harris, has issued an order essentially stripping the elected city council of all powers. no money can be spent, no taxes raised or lowered, no bonds issued, no regulations changed without his approval. benton harbor's residents now live in a dictatorship imposed by a republican governor famous for his belief that the poor should be punished and the rich rewarded.this appointed dictator claims breathtaking powers. he can sell public assets, dismiss pension boards and take control of public pension funds and revoke labor contracts. what triggers this takeover? the law is remarkably vague. the governor may act if a payroll is missed, if there are complaints of late bill payment, if pensions are underfunded, if there is a significant budget deficit, a term that goes undefined.this takeover is a recipe for the worst abuses of oppression, cronyism and corruption. and here, too, benton harbor is the example. one of the few citizen treasures in benton harbor is the jean klock park, a half-mile of sandy dunes on the edge of lake michigan. it was bequeathed to the children of benton harbor by the klock family in 1917 in memory of their daughter.but developers backed by whirlpool now want to appropriate a large portion of the park to turn it into a harbor shores golf resort with a 350-room hotel, two marinas, a 60,000-foot indoor water park (for members only), and a fancy golf course open to all who can afford a $5,000 entry fee and be approved by the club. the town's citizens have resisted this development, which is under litigation.but the new czar's first act was to take over the brownfield redevelopment authority, most likely as a way to proceed with the development and sidestep the lawsuits. why be suspicious? because the law that the new czar is operating under was introduced by republican state rep. al pscholka, former staff aide to u.s. rep. fred upton, an heir to the whirlpool fortune.- chicago sun times

I was perusing my charts this evening (I literally have hundreds in several directories... sigh) and found an interesting / important development on major one: The NYSE Cumulative Advance Decline (NYAD)
On all my microcharts, I show (at the bottom) NYADV:NYDEC in green and the inverse in orange to show the breadth that day. But looking at a cumulative plot of the NYAD show how the breadth is increasing (or decreasing) as a trend as the price move wears on. And breadth as a whole is not confirming this higher high the past week in the market. Which makes perfect sense. So many of us bloggers have been been talking about how fractured the market is right now. The difference between the Russell 2000 and the Dow just jumps off the page. This is an obvious sign of risk aversion. There is a huge risk spread (the difference between the "safe" Dow and the "risky" small caps of the Russell). If the atmosphere was really bullish, shouldn't small caps be outperforming?
Anyways, the NYAD (orange line in the chart below) failed to make a higher high as the SPX (pink line) and the Dow did.
Shortest BINVE post Evah.
be interesting to see if it gets more recs. Sometimes I think your blogs are so detailed the typical CAPS dude is like wha?
If the atmosphere was really bullish, shouldn't small caps be outperforming?
to play devil's advocate. mungofitch mentioned something the other day about seasonality with small caps that I had forgotten.
What often happens is that fund managers get scared this time of year, they wish to lock in gains so they dump the smalls and buy the bigs to protect gains. Then come Jan 1 they go hard into smalls again.(cuz everyone knows small have a better chance to outperfrom the indicies)
the smarter/more daring bullish ones will try to front run the reloaders this year in mid-late december by loading up on smalls then.
So I dunno BInve. Don't think it's quite as abnormal as it seems. I think it's just maginified by the size of the run we've had.
Thanks Binve,
Seems to be a lot of divergance. I closed about 1/2 of my shorts...but my puts on the Russel are only losing a bit of time value...the index(and "the" market) topped more than a month ago. Doesn't mean you can't make money long on individual stocks, or that some indexes....but have an exit strategy.
Hey man, LOL! Yeah most of my other posts like to explore a topic and this one was short and to the point. We'll see :)
So I dunno BInve. Don't think it's quite as abnormal as it seems. I think it's just maginified by the size of the run we've had.
That's a fair rebuttal. And if that were the only sign of weakness, I would concede the point and move along. But the point of this post is that the Russell (which the NYAD does not represent) is behaving substantially weaker than the large caps. Not just profit taking weaker. Now couple that with my observation above on the chart that the NYSE A/D is showing divergence for the first time in this rally.
-- Small cap index (RUT) are diverging from the large cap indices.-- Market internals of the large cap indices are diverging with price.
Not indicators, but actual breadth measures.
So this chart is not saying that the market crashes from here (necessarily), but it says that topping is likely beginning to happen.
Thanks Mark! Yes I couldn't agree more. Smart money management is key, and you know this better than most...
No doubt the could be topping action. You already know I'm not bullish :)
general rule of thumb is that the last rally's biggest winners are the downsloide's biggets losers (lookin at you Rite Aid and Las vegas Sands, STEC already got whacked). so the smalls should get railed first.
I have to admit I'd be shocked if we get a meaningful lurch downward before mid january now, too much market internals taking over at this point to not keep it aloft I think until then...
well I guess we'll see.
Hey man, I wrote 3 posts recently that I think you would be very interested in. I too think this is topping action but my projection that I have had for a couple of weeks now has this current wave down to about ~1050 to the beginning of Decemeber and then the final wave up that make a modest new high ~(1125-1150) in mid December for the end of P2. Then minor waves 1-2 of P3 for the end of December, beginning of January. So I am very much in agreement with your observations above. Here is my conversation with amassafortune on the issue
.I am far from bullish. In fact I have been bearish to my detriment (by not capitalizing on these rallies as much as I could have). But this is still a BS P2 rally. So I have built up a sizeable short position via TZA and a smaller one in FAZ, and at 1050 I will probably lighten up on those, but I will not go long with any meaningful amount of money, if at all. Because I think this last wave up (Minor C)... assuming of course my count is right and we even get a Minor C up vs. just crashing down here... will be the ultimate window dressing wave. There will be a run up due to Q4 anticipation. There will be a lot of year end run up just before the year end tax loss selling (you see I put a peak in mid December). But I think the participation will be very spotty. I think we will get a lot of non-confirmations. And as per my post last night: http://marketthoughtsandanalysis.blogspot.com/2..., the current divergence between the cumulative NYAD and the SPX and Dow will grow. I think breadth will be very erratic. In fact I think the breadth will be very bad and similar to the run up last month (see these posts: Man SPX, Your Brea(d)th Stinks! and SPX says "Pass Me the Binaca!")But I will be right along side you at +1115. That is what I will be using this last Wave C for, to add to short positions. It will be a bearish Christmas gift :)And thank you so much for the props! I really appreciate that man! We have had so many great and useful discussions on Caps and I am so glad we are continuing that here :) Thanks man!!.
.So here are the posts that I think you would like
-- Predictions for Minor B-- My Positions and Projections-- Projections, In the Corner of My Mind
Thanks man!.
Binve, great as usual. Is this the stock market version of the haves and the have-nots? Because I definitely want to stay on the "haves" side of that group.
Thanks Mary! Me too, I would like to be on the "haves" side please :)

Fridays on the Farm. Convalescent leave… according to Ratchet…
So, as many of you know a few months ago we retired Nala (8 year old long haired German Shepherd) from livestock guardian dog to pampered inside house dog. This left Fuzzy Bear (7 year old Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dog) without a partner. In comes Ratchet… an amazing Great Pyrenees pup we got from some amazing friends up by Indianapolis.
He's been here for a few months and has grown into a wonderful pup and perfect partner for Fuzzy Bear. As the weeks flew by we knew he was getting closer and closer to the time of the dreaded surgery… the neuter.
Surgery was done when he was just over 5 months old and a still happy puppy returned home in apparently no pain (pain meds given just in case). We thought we were in for a couple calm weeks of convalescent leave while he recovered inside. I mentioned this dog is accustomed to being out with the goats, chickens, rabbits, cats, horses, and Fuzzy Bear 24/7 right? Well, if I hadn't mentioned it let me make it very clear now… this pup is not accustomed to the wonderful world of "inside."
Soooo…. Let me take you on a tour of our convalescent time with Ratchet as he recovered from his neuter surgery.
- He taught himself to push the water cooler spout on… but not off.
- He learned to shred paper towel straight off the roll that was obviously offending him by his proximity to his kennel.
- He learned to eat drywall through his kennel because it too obviously offended him by its proximity to the kennel (the wall folks… the wall offended him so he ate holes in it)
- He learned to dump an entire water dish on the floor by grabbing the towel it sat upon an running.
- He found a fun game in grabbing my neighbor's ball of yarn that she was CURRENTLY knitting with and running with it…several times (I hope she's still willing to dog sit on occasion)
- He learned the delicate art of performing a squeakerectomy and destuffing of eight dog toys.
- He managed to lose six baby puppy teeth and lovingly hand them over to Echo (husky puppy) to chew on.
- He learned to dig to China in the mud puddles in the back doggy potty area… yup we'll stick with hoping they were all "mud" puddles.
- He learned how to open the baby gate from the kitchen and let loose the entire herd of dogs (during some cold and stormy snaps we had all 6 dogs inside… 2 German Shepherds, 2 Great Pyrenees, Siberian husky pup, golden retriever).
It was a LONG 2 weeks of recovery but I am glad to say Ratchet has been returned to livestock guardian dog duties OUTSIDE and he…me…all of us couldn't be happier.

The New Korg LP-380 Digital Piano
The new Korg LP-380 digital piano is built with a slim profile design that will greatly enhance your home or music studio, not only with its deeply expressive, acoustic piano-like sound, but also with its beautiful and stylish appearance. The LP-380 has been designed to visually complement practically any living space. Korg's latest digital piano is less than 11 inches in depth, making it both space-saving and efficient. When you are finished playing it, the soft-closing keyboard cover leaves a smooth, flat top with absolutely no protruding hinges, allowing the LP-380 to blend in with your interior and become part of your room's decor.
The 88 key LP-380 provides accurate and robust playing performance, including a grand-touch, action keyboard, three pedals, and a powerful speaker system which delivers a rich, authentic piano sound. The sound of the LP-380 have been meticulously sampled — in stereo — directly from a concert grand piano to ensure a lavishly resonant tone. The samples were captured at multiple velocity levels, so subtle variations in music expression will be naturally reflected in the piano sound you hear. The LP-380 digital piano also includes a rich variety of thirty different sounds, including Acoustic Piano, Electric Piano, Church Organ, Jazz Organ, Vibraphone, Marimba, Strings, Acoustic Guitar, and more.
In addition, the Layer Mode feature allows two sounds to be played simultaneously with the balance between the two sounds also being adjustable. It also features a Partner Mode that divides the keyboard into left and right regions so that two people can play the same range of pitches at the same time. The LP-380 has been designed with Korg's finest piano action touch and feel, using their RH3 (Real Weighted Hammer Action 3) technology to more closely resemble that of an acoustic piano.
Just as on a traditional grand piano, the keyboard provides a heavier playing touch in the lower register, becoming progressively lighter towards the upper keys. Refinements designed for capturing rapidly repeated key strikes ensure that your expressive music abilities will not be impaired even while playing fast passages. There are three levels of touch sensitivity available using the Key Touch Control function, that allow you to customize the dynamic response to your own playing preference.
In consideration of the user's possible need to move or relocate the instrument later on, the LP-380 weighs in at a modest 37 kg / 81.57 lbs (including the Stand), making it easier to move or transport. The Korg LP-380 has been made available in two different colors - black or white - to more easily match the interior color scheme of your room. For additional information about the new LP-380, you can visit Korg's website.

Yummy holiday foods
Christmas is the time for loads of tasty treats, with tables spread as far as the eye can see with delicious mountains of food. There's big hearty roasts, decadent desserts, and I personally like to eat my own body weight in chocolate. I don't think I'm alone in pre-emptively making that classic new year's resolution/self-deluding lie that I WILL lose the extra kilos I intend to pack on with all this awesomeness. But weight gain, although a health issue in itself and terribly embarrassing for our four-legged counterparts, isn't the only problem they experience from all these scrumptious delights…
I want my baby back baby back baby back…ribs.
I die a little inside every time a miserable pet crawls (or is carried) into my consult room having overindulged in a nice lamb roast or some sausages off the barbie. Fatty or very rich foods are not well tolerated by pets and are a fast track to pancreatitis. This is a potentially fatal condition that at best will result in a few days hospitalisation (cha-ching) and at worst a very sad memory of the festive season. It is also very common. Do your pets a favour and slap anyone on the hand (or where ever you see fit) that tries to feed them off the Christmas table. Not pointing any fingers. Dad.
We all know about cooked bones too, right? How often do we feed them to our fur-friends? Say it with me – NEVER. They are brittle, splinter easily and can obstruct and/or perforate gastrointestinal tracts. Why in the actual heck would you risk that! Other naughty festive foods that have the potential to make pets very ill include mince pies and Christmas pudding.
Look, the occasional delicious and dog-appropriate treat is fine, just don't feed them the packaging!*
EVER! Ever, ever, ever, ever! Yes, some of us vets and vet nurses do enjoy the scent of chocolate vomit, as we hastily induce emesis in your Labrador that just got into a giant bag of m&ms, but maybe next time you feel like giving us a gift you could just give us some chockies that aren't partially digested. Just say'n…
Theobromine is the substance in chocolate that makes our pets ill, and the darker the chocolate, the higher the levels of theobromine. An average size dog need only ingest a few squares of dark chocolate to get sick. Signs include vomiting, diarrhoea, weakness, loss of balance, and seizures. This can lead to death. If you think your pet may have eaten chocolate contact your vet immediately.
Pweeeeease give me some chocolate?? NO!
You so pretty. Imma eat you up!
So tinsel and ribbons and pretty little baubles for the tree can be unbearably tempting for dogs and cats alike, and can end up in lodged in little bellies.
Yes, the picture above is my own dog, Anika. I hang my head in shame! So do as I say, not as I do, and ensure nothing of this sort is accessible to furry family members.
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree, your ornaments are history!
Any cat owner knows cats luuuuurve shiny, sparkly things on strings. Your vet really doesn't relish the thought of extracting a foot or two of tinsel from Kitty's intestines during late December though. Strings of lights can also be tempting and dangerous.
I'm as pwitty as a pwincess!
Options to make things a bit safer for our canine companions include putting a playpen around the Christmas tree and/or placing all ornaments etc high enough to be out of reach. Our feline friends, however, will most likely laugh in the face of such measures. Lucky they get nine lives I suppose.
Attack of the Christmas plants
I do love a real Christmas tree – to me the smell brings back all the excitement and joy of jumping out of bed at the crack of dawn and waking mum and dad to see what Santa's brought (big shout out to mum and dad and their extremely selfish rule of no presents before 6 am). If your pet has a penchant for spikey green delicacies and decides to indulge in some tasty pine needles though, say hello to vomiting and diarrhoea.
Holly can cause severe tummy trouble or worse if ingested, and same with mistletoe which can further lead to collapse and death. Poinsettias can irritate the mouth and stomach and sometimes also cause vomiting. Keep in mind that these traditional Christmas plants can also affect your two-legged kids if they decide to gobble them up.From left to right, the evil trifecta of holly, poinsettias and mistletoe
And for those who can't read, here's a picture!
Some of these things aren't unique to Chistmas, but deserving of a mention nonetheless. Feel free to copy the pic and share it with nanna, who you just know is going to sneak the dog some nice pork crackling, or with uncle Rod who thinks it's funny to feed beer to other peoples' pets.
It's getting hot in here
So take off all your clothes…
So another thing to mention for my fellow Australians and other friends south of the equator. The festive season is in the peak of summer for us, so keep those pets safe from the scorching heat, ensure they always have access to clean fresh water, and never ever leave an animal in a hot car.
And just one more thing…
Giving pets as surprise gifts is both wrong and unawesome. Choosing to welcome an animal into your home for the entirety of it's life is a huge decision that shouldn't be made on impulse or by anyone other than the person who is going to be responsible for it. Animal shelters overflow with unwanted pets after Christmas and this is heartbreaking.
On a lighter note, I hope you all made it onto Santa's nice list this year and have wonderful, happy holidays. Stay safe and give your pet a hug from me.
If you like my blog, please feel free to sign up for email updates. I send out a short email every month or so when I've written a new informative and hilarious post, and nothing more.

*The treats seen in the pic with my dog Billy are Nature's Gift Digestive Chews. They were given to me as a sample to road test on my dogs (who loved them). I have no financial arrangement with any pet food company, and will always be completely transparent in this regard.
Hi Jo
I am looking to write a general post about animals at Christmas including foods they can't eat, other dangers and how to help wildlife at this time of year. Would it be OK to use your dangerous foods for dogs image, with a link back to this post? Thank you, Rosie

To your friends and fam, you seemingly put on your jolly face and talk about how marvelous your life is. All girls and boys know that fellow who always posts jolly pics on Snapchat. But deep inside, do you worry that the profile you've picked on Snapchat indeed represents cretin dichotomies instead of the legitimate you?
A trip to the Southwest is overdue.
Everyone should fathom that a stay may be very inexpensive or extremely elegant. It may be rough to make a decision to travel in the first place.
We believe explorers can trust the wisdom of the people who live in the community. We suggest seeking out legit Arizonans who may be your smart teachers for the most phenomenal places to taste and see in Arizona.
If you are finally ready to live the dream by visiting Arizona, you will need to lock down your travel plans this new week! First, narrow your search. Have you considered a swing in Tucson, Arizona?
The revolting actuality of your expedition can seep in once you finally book an upcoming expedition to Arizona. You will need to manage challenging logistics. And crazy people who work on the airlines, cabs and buses may make you unfulfilled. Yet, pro tourists strongly recommend that you stay open-minded since you might also find new companions on this challenging part of the journey. Misery will always celebrate company.
Imagine the gleeful mood you will enter once you reach Tucson, Arizona. Most journeyers should be gleeful to be there!
When tourists taste bacon, eggs, fried fish and french fries that are goofy at hip grub spots, they may be hateful at how indulgent this was. But these gals and guys can handle the test if they are not super voracious and if they remain smart. Even the discriminating Sand Cutters don't like every meal.
When you overcome this demanding moment, you might fathom how folks can learn about themselves during their travels. You may emerge more intrepid and delighted than you ever thought you could be.
This is the time to celebrate your cool perspective on life. Your tour may only have a handful of days left. Therefore, we strongly encourage Homo Sapiens to celebrate the enchanting foodie spots in Tucson, Arizona while they can. Resist the temptation to eat at IHOP because you can get that at home.
Very often, confident travelers will conceivably try to stuff in one last voyage to Phoenix International Raceway while staying in Arizona. That is an ambitious goal and may even be dense given the logistics. These travelers will conceivably have an even more frustrating path to follow. Yet, now you know that life is about the journey, not a destination. You should be confident that you can fit it all in while you are in the Grand Canyon State!
When you return home, you will conceivably feel more robust. Your tribe will notice and favorite your glad moments on Twitter. This should show the globe that you made the greatest decision to have your stay in the West. And for those women and men who have yet to experience Arizona, please examine these unbelievable hot spots in Tucson, Arizona to see what you are missing!

Ecommerce has quickly become one of the fastest growing markets in the country. According to a report recently released by Forrester, online retail sales are expected to rise by a nine percent compound annual growth rate. However it contains few risks for all transactions which may lead to financial loss or a breach in privacy. It is therefore the security of eCommerce transactions that is a critical part of the ongoing success and growth of eCommerce.
Consequences of poor e-security
Computers that are not protected from e-security might follow below issues:
• compromise the operating system, enabling a remote attacker to control the computer's functions
• provide access to sensitive personal information
• be unintentionally exposed to viruses, via email, USB sticks or file downloads
• Corrupt files leading to information loss.
Precautions to take against cyber crime
1) Those websites which deals with financial transactions should use encryption to protect sensitive customer information. Using an SSL certificate is a good way to prevent hackers from accessing credit card and other payment information while it is being transferred across the network. However, SSL certificates need to be updated regularly in order to follow the latest updates in cybersecurity. If your certificate will be expiring, it can harm an ecommerce site in two ways:
– Failing to provide current encryption techniques
– Demonstrating to customers that the protection of their sensitive information is not a major concern.
2) Many ecommerce businesses only use encryption tools when a customer has initiated the checkout phase. However, only encryption tools are not enough, some merchants may consider using always-on SSL resources. Instead of activating the encryption protocols at a certain time, a website will protect the user's entire session. As the ecommerce industry grows, cybercriminals will increasingly target online retailers. Protect sensitive payment data and build customer trust with an SSL certificate.
3) Always keep your software patches updated, especially on systems that are accessible through your firewall like HTTP, FTP, and DNS.
4) Try to use network compliance solutions that will keep infected device users out of your network.
5) Configure your mail server in such a way that will block or remove email that contains fake attachments like .exe, .bat, .vbs etc. These kinds of mails are generated just to spread viruses.
6) Be updates with your User Management. Monitor your users and their access and access levels frequently to avoid fake users (hackers).
7) Test your systems security on regular basis.

Item TB96
This Item Sold on 24 October 2007
for $50
Similar artifacts for sale are often found on the South American Artifacts web page.
Historical Pricing information for this item and similar artifacts can be found at: Historical Artifact Prices
The bola is a primitive hunting tool that was originally used by the Chinese, Eskimos and South American Indians. Bolas are a throwing device made of weights that are attached to the ends of interconnected cords, designed to capture animals by entangling their legs. They are most famously used by the South American gauchos. Gauchos used bolas to capture running cattle or game.
For detailed information about bolas from different cultures, please visit the flight-toys bola web page.
This bola is a good example of a functional bola with braided leather cords. Each of the balls has a solid interior that is surrounded by a leather pouch. One of the balls is slightly smaller than the other two balls, as expected. The leather is soft and not of the type that is usually used for bola construction. This one was most likely made for the tourist industry. The cord is less robust (but still strong) and has a lighter weight than the others so it is probably the better choice if you feel the need to actual throw your bola instead of hanging it on the wall for display. Cord length = 50 -> 62 cm ; Ball diameters = 5.0 -> 6.0 cm ; Weight = 286 gm

Workplace Active Shooter Response Solutions
The objectives and topics covered during this training provide workplace leaders, administrators, supervisors, human resource personnel, security and front line personnel with information and strategies on recognizing and responding to the violent intruder.
If the event were to occur what would the impact be to our customers, employees and culture? And how does "preparing in advance" assist in either preventing the event or mitigating the impact if it were to occur.
This is valuable and much needed training.
We get many threats, so new information and ideas are always welcome. Excellent presentation and information.
This course made us more aware. We will look at the policies we do have and see what we can improve upon to train our employees better.
The information on lockdown was very helpful and we plan to look at our location in a different light!
Very helpful and interesting! We need to get more people in our community involved.
Top notch! Nice mix of lecture, video, discussion, and demonstration.
Very useful and applicable information. Easy to follow, good use of materials, handouts, etc.
Very impressed with the course and am able to take away many action plans!
The overall goal of this training program is to provide the course participant with guiding principles and strategies to recognize behavioral pre-cursors to threatening and potentially violent incidents and then to respond accordingly. Participants will learn to:
- Recognize the frequency of incidents of intruder related violence in the workplace
- Identify and recognize risk factors that are inherent to the workplace
- Recognize on-duty law enforcement capabilities/limitations in responding to these types of incidents
- Understand and accept that the violent intruder event will most likely be over PRIOR to law enforcement arrival or as the intruder becomes aware of law enforcement presence
- Understanding the importance of awareness, education and training for front line personnel
- Attacker/Intruder goals and motivations
- Understand and implement principles of LOCKDOWN – "preventing access" vs. "delayed egress" in the workplace
- Understand and implement principles of LOCKDOWN FAILURE "preventing access failure" via the "3 OUT PRINCIPLE"
- Recognize and understand phenomenon of "Normalcy Bias" and training relative to overcoming this phenomenon
- Understand sensory based decision making and how it affects proper and improper response to the crisis
Training includes classroom lecture as well as realistic scenario based training that activates the "sympathetic nervous system". Activating the SNS in training has proven most effective in preparing staff and personnel for response beyond the level of "lockdown" only and truly gives them the capacity to mitigate and prevail in this "worse case scenario." Curriculum includes not only lockdown training but also "lockdown failure" response principles.

Unlike wine, rock legends rarely get better with age. For one thing, very few last long enough to become vintage.
Every new generation proves it: even some of the greatest rockers tend to burn out after a decade or so. Some just plain die. I know Woodstock organizers said scheduling and financial headaches are what kept them from staging a 40th anniversary festival with original stars – but don't ya kinda figure it must also have something to do with how few original stars are a) still alive and b) in first-rate shape?
But the way he's playing these days –- and by these days I mean the past dozen years –- John Fogerty could have headlined a night of Woodstock '09, and he would have killed.
Again and again Thursday night at the Kodak Theatre, in his first performance at the rarely used (for rock) home of the Oscars in the heart of Hollywood, Fogerty proved his mettle –- his robust holler, his formidable and still-feral fretwork, above all the durability and flexibility of both his iconic songbook and several other American should-be standards.
In the past five years, during which Fogerty moved into his mid-60s, this Hall of Famer once so prone to lengthy absences has made more albums than in any other decade of his solo career. Three lauded discs, to be exact: Déjà Vu (All Over Again), politically charged for the 2004 election … the superior Revival from two years ago, raw and rustic but also more playful … and August's covers collection, The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again, a sequel to Fogerty's similarly conceived 1973 solo debut.
That one was something of a head-clearing breath of fresh air after finally parting ways with Creedence Clearwater Revival the year before. This new Blue Ridge Rangers set shares its sense of jubilation, but as it was recorded with much of the same crew from its two predecessors (Billy Burnette on guitar, Kenny Aronoff on drums), it's less a curio than an extension of Fogerty's richly restored country-rockin' approach as of late.
Its assortment ranges from a saloon-style shuffle through John Denver's "Back Home Again" to resurrections of personal favorites from John Prine ("Paradise") and Delaney & Bonnie ("Never Ending Song of Love"), from a remake of his own "Change in the Weather" (better now than on 1987's Eye of the Zombie) to straight renditions of Rick Nelson's "Garden Party" (featuring most of the Eagles) and the Everly Brothers' "When Will I Be Loved" (backed by Bruce Springsteen).
Compared to the neo-classic originals he's still capable of dashing off with ease, the new Rangers sampler is a solid but ultimately slight effort. Yet it has unexpected value: the familiarity of the material alongside so many Fogerty staples makes for an entertaining concert of uncommon consistency.
"Of course you'll know this one as soon as we start it," he said five cuts into Thursday's show, before kicking off the Delaney & Bonnie tune. He was mistaken about that –- but it was just about the only number in his two-hour, 25-song set that the majority of the crowd didn't know by heart. What's more, the overall hootenanny environment – fabulous fiddle from Jason Mowery, clever pedal steel asides from Richard James Pennebaker –- made the atmosphere more inviting than any Fogerty show I've seen since his second great comeback began in 1997 with Blue Moon Swamp. It's a shame this wasn't the album he was promoting when he played Stagecoach.
That's a change from the Bay Area native's last few local stops, all of which were generous on CCR nuggets but came sprinkled with Déjà Vu and Revival bits that, though musically and thematically compelling, didn't always engage audiences as much as Fogerty might have hoped. Somewhat like the Stones' hits-heavy Licks Tour, then, this outing (next stop: Primm Valley Resorts at stateline) is a sheer crowd-pleaser with very few obscure distractions.
Because of that, Fogerty continues to be all fired up like he hasn't been since his 20s – maybe not as hopping mad as he was at the Hollywood Bowl in '05 but still as passionate in his playing. Indeed, in a decade of watching Fogerty emerge from seclusion to once again bask in the glory of his particular brand of American music, it's astounding to note that he actually keeps improving.
How many other legends can claim the same? Even tireless titans like Springsteen and U2 and the Stones and what's left of the Who haven't exactly gotten better. They've merely maintained –- probably slipped off a bit, come to think of it, though that's inevitable when you're as galvanizing as the Boss and Bono and Mick and Keith were back in the day.
Let's go back to Woodstock: Who, out of big names that could have even cut it on stage (sorry, Sly Stone), would really have stunned the multitudes with unexpected force? Not the Who -– still strong yet still a shell of its formerly muscular self. Nor Santana (God-given chops, bland band) or Joe Cocker (all rasped out) or the Dead (we miss you, Jerry) or the remnants of Jefferson Airplane (oh please) or even Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (Neil alone, now that's another matter).
Mild-mannered Fogerty, on the other hand, would have shown up as he did Thursday night, smiling and friendly in a flannel shirt, an arsenal of anthems at the ready. Then he would have lovingly firebombed the field as he did here, unleashing one jammed-out beast ("Ramble Tamble" with a Cream-y finish) after another ("Keep on Chooglin'"), one menacing swamp thing ("Born on the Bayou") after another ("Green River"), one fist of fury ("Fortunate Son") after several pleas for peace (his rain songs, "Who'll Stop the …?" and "Have You Ever Seen the …?").
He'd have rock 'n' roll lovers young and old cheering and singing along to "Midnight Special," just as they did here. He'd have wowed with his rollicking yet tight run through Ray Charles' "Night Time Is the Right Time." And he'd have 'em grooving in the grass to "Looking Out My Back Door" and "Down on the Corner," just as he had him bopping in the opera boxes at the Kodak.
Through it all he'd have left 'em marveling at his ringing vocal authority, his emotive power on guitar, the timelessness of his melodies and meanings. He's a rare and vital American treasure, John Fogerty. Here's hoping he's barely midway into this late-career comeback.

(Critical Survey of Literature for Students)
In August, 1773, James Boswell finally succeeded in persuading his distinguished friend Samuel Johnson to accompany him on a tour of his native Scotland, a country for which the learned Dr. Johnson's scorn was legendary. Boswell kept a detailed journal for most of their journey together, and he published it, in a version edited and revised with the help of the Shakespearean scholar, Edmund Malone, in 1785, as a companion volume to Johnson's own account, A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland, that had appeared in 1775. Boswell's original journal was discovered with many of his other private papers, giving the modern reader the opportunity to examine a considerably franker account than the one that was first issued to the public.
The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides is a fascinating travelogue, an unusually full record of life in the Scottish highlands and on the remote islands of the Hebrides, a character sketch of Johnson, and, like Boswell's other diaries, a mirror of his personal idiosyncrasies. Boswell seems especially anxious to show the respect and the deference with which his friend was greeted by his countrymen; he wanted to prove to Johnson and to the world that the Scots were indeed capable of being scholars and gentlemen, closely in touch with the world of learning, and, being a Scot himself, he naturally felt pride in having the privilege of introducing so great a figure to the professors and noblemen of his homeland.
Perhaps the greatest appeal of Boswell's account lies in the absolute naturalness of style and content. Discussion of the quality of the food and of the beds at every inn along the way is interspersed with Johnson's comments on whatever volumes of prayers, sermons, or poems he was able to procure and with accounts of long conversations between the scholar and many of his hosts on religion, philosophy, politics, and literature. As the trip went on, Boswell tended to fall farther and farther behind in his account, and throughout the journal he casually tossed in collections of Johnsoniana after having forgotten the specific occasions of many of the doctor's comments. He chose, too, to stop his narrative at intervals to give geographical and historical details.
Boswell is brutally frank, in his unpublished account, about the character of some of their hosts. He is relatively sympathetic when treating the weakness of Donald MacLeod, a young kinsman of the chief of the MacLeod clan of Dunvegan, on the Isle of Skye, who took their money to town to have it changed and squandered a portion of it on his own refreshment, much to his later chagrin and shame. The arrogance and lack of hospitality of Sir Alexander Macdonald, whose manners seemed to Boswell entirely out of keeping with his station in life, are treated much more harshly. Boswell gives a particularly amusing account of their visit to the duke and duchess of Argyll...

I should say 'easy-going'. The strong silent type, herbs stand quietly by and just when you need to add a little punch to something, anything, there they are.
In a botanical culinary sort of way they're like dear friends, always there for you. When I planted an herb garden just outside the back door ten years ago, I had no idea how much it would simplify and influence our cooking, the ability to have what is needed to brighten the flavor of almost anything.
This isn't a precious garden, it gets some attention in the spring, cleaning up and rearranging, after that not much of anything. That's the way with herbs, they like to rough it. They'd be good on a camping trip – hike for miles without water and then bed down for the night without any fuss. The Mediterranean landscape is in their genes and rocky scruffy soil and dry conditions make them feel right at home. Sure, they respond to a little TLC, but the point is they don't want or need a lot of attention. Not at all like roses who will throw a temper tantrum on a whim, herbs are the least spoiled child in the garden. Leave them alone, they're happy campers.
I recently found this interesting piece, A Garden of Herbs, at Gourmet.com. It's a slide show with text. Gourmet rounded up a few chefs and asked them about a favorite herb, so you've got thirteen chefs, thirteen herb photos, thirteen comments, and related recipe information. Succinct and informative, check it out. On Friday I'll share a mostly local beverage made with herbs that you may have in your backyard.

Diffuser pressure drop optimization
I would like to optimize a diffuser in a pipeline in order to minimize pressure drop due to flow separation. As far as numerical studies are concerned, we all know Eddy-viscosity models do not accurately predict such type of flows with separation. On the other hand LES/DNS is still quite expensive to do optimization.
Can somebody suggest recent numerical and/or experimental studies in this direction? The standard text books of fluid mechanics do not handle this topic very well. In fact, I want to update myself with the State of the art (both experimental and numerical) in this field before considering a few designs for the optimization. Any type of input (reference etc.) in this regard will deeply be appreciated.
thanks in advance

Have you ever wondered why all the major corporate news outlets seem to report the same trivial nonsense, often with the same verbiage and archival footage? Why every mainstream news outlet reports the latest Lindsey Lohan calamity or the most recent Kardashian family fart? Why every corporate news outlet has the same spin on the same stories which are often reported in the same order and with the same lack of historical perspective and severely limited viewpoint? One would think that what is reported as 'news' is actually manufactured productions of events, minus pertinent meaningful facts and skewed sketches of the actors who initiated the reported happenings, reporting not meant to inform or empower with knowledge, but to shape the public mind into a fenced-in understanding.

Assuming that you have successfully created a teacher account and sent a drill to your student, but they are unable to open it on their end, try the following solutions.
- Does the student have Flashnote Derby installed on their device at home?
The purchased app must exist on their tablet or phone before attempting to open the drill you sent them. (A link to purchasing the app in the iOS app store, Google Play, and the Amazon App Store is included in each email that accompanies the preset drill sent to the student.)
- Was the email received on a computer and the student tried to access the drill from there?
In order to open, the email must be accessed from the tablet or phone that has Flashnote Derby installed on it.
- Was the student connected to the internet when they attempted to open the drill for the first time?
The notes of the drill are stored in the cloud and must be fetched when the student taps on the link in the email. If the student's device is temporarily not connected to the internet, the drill cannot be loaded. Once the preset drill is installed, it is available under the presets menu (bookmark icon) regardless of internet connection status.
If you have eliminated the above possibilities and the problem persists, raise a support ticket and we'll see what the issue could be.

If you're a shopaholic (like us), Akasaka Yoko Hotel is the right pick. It is within walking distance to Tokyo Midtown Plaza - an ultra modern mall that houses trendsetting boutiques & upscale outlets (such as Dean & DeLuca & Maison Kayser).
The hotel is also near a train station wherein for a merely 20-minute ride you'll find yourself in the midst of Shibuya – taking souvenir photo/selfie with Hachikō, walking across its famous crossing & conquering all of its shopping malls, cafes, restaurants & entertainment.
Like most hotel rooms in Japan, ours is undersized. Given that we will only utilize it for sleeping & other personal matters, it was A-OK. Its saving grace was the bathroom where the toilet seat is packed with buttons. Nonetheless, it's not rocket science to figure out which is for what.
The selection on the breakfast buffet was similar each morning but it was substantial. We found the buttered pastries irresistible and that's what we had every day together with a hot cuppa plus other choices, of course.
Since Wi-Fi is only available at the lobby, this gives us the opportunity to do other tasks like visiting the nearby convenient store for last-minute buys.
The staffs are friendly and although they have limited knowledge of the English language we were able to exchange a few words. One time, sensing that it was drizzling, without asking they offered brollies on our way out. Quite impressive!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Akasaka Yoko Hotel offers 245 guest rooms and suites thoughtfully appointed to make your stay comfortable. ... more less

After an enriching second-place finish at the Players Championship last week, David Toms took his remarkable resurgence to the next level today by winning the Colonial Invitational.
David Toms' putter is the new Never Compromise Dinero Tycoon. Was there ever a more appropriately named putter? After all, it has helped Toms earn a total of more than $2 million in the span of two weeks.
You may have first heard about the Dinero Tycoon putter when we were raving about it last month on The Greenside radio show.
The Never Compromise Dinero Limited putters are forged and milled from 303 stainless steel. Click here for our earlier preview of the Dinero line.
