Skyfire 2.2 for Android Released
No operating system, be it a desktop one or for a handheld device, can be complete without a good web browser. Recently, the Beta version of the browser SkyFire 2.2 was released Google's Android operating system. The version number to be exact is 22.214.171.12494; the new version brings several improvements to its predecessor SkyFire 2.1.
SkyFire 2.2 supports GeoLocation, therefore enabling pages like Google Maps, which use the GeoLocation feature will be fully working with SkyFire 2.2. The search system for SkyDrive is also enhanced with results from multiple engines like Google, Twitter, Amazon are displayed. More search engines will be added in the near future. Also, SkyFire will be set as the default browser for Android version 1.5 to 2.1, with Android 2.2 not included in that list. The browser also contains support for Flash 10.1 and the user interface (UI) is improved to provide a sleeker and smoother browsing interface on Android 2.2. The video zoom features have been enhanced; especially for the HTC devices and also fixes some crash related issues and bug fixes.
Being a Beta release, there are some issues with SkyFire 2.2, with the major ones being popular video streaming service Hulu not working on SkyFire 2.2. However, rather than a technical issue, this is somewhat of a platform problem since Hulu says, "Hulu does not have the rights to support content for mobile devices and thus is blocking Skyfire.†Other issues include finding videos and getting stuck on 25%.
However, things are bound to improve when the final version of SkyFire 2.2 is released in the near future. Meanwhile, the Beta can be downloaded from the Android Market.

A Clinton man will serve at least two years in prison for drug trafficking and his wife placed on probation following guilty pleas entered in Sampson County Superior Court.
Robbie Harrison Warren, 50, and Michelle Mason Warren, 47, both of 404 Carolina Ave., Clinton, each pleaded guilty on March 29 in the drug case.
They were arrested on drug trafficking charges following a multi-agency investigation by Sampson County Sheriff's Special Investigation Division, whose agents seized two separate 10-pound packages of marijuana from Clinton residences Oct. 22, 2015 to go along with another 6 pounds and nearly $70,000 in cash from the couple's home.
As part of the plea agreements, Robbie Warren pleaded guilty to trafficking in marijuana and Michelle Warren pleaded to maintaining a vehicle, dwelling or place for a controlled substance, both felony convictions. Robbie Warren received an active sentence of 25-39 months in the N.C. Department of Corrections. Michelle Warren was given a suspended sentence and placed on 6-17 months probation.
Assistant District Attorney Arneatha Gillis prosecuted the case for the state. She cited the "level of culpability" for the reason why Robbie Warren's sentence was a lengthier, active punishment.
According to information released at the time of their arrests, SID agents were informed of a package at an address on Barker Road and stopped Robbie Warren's vehicle at about 1 p.m. that day as he pulled away from the home, the 10-pound marijuana package subsequently found in his possession, authorities said.
Investigation led agents to another home on Rowan Road, reportedly Warren's next stop. There, another 10-pound package was seized. A resident of the home was subsequently charged with simple possession of marijuana.
Ultimately, a search warrant was obtained for the Warrens' Carolina Avenue home, where $68,000 in cash was seized along with 6 more pounds of marijuana, bringing the total to 26 pounds seized.
"He's been on our radar," the SID head stated at the time of Robbie Warren's arrest. "Anyone who's in possession of 26 pounds of marijuana is a supplier. That's a lot of drugs that's not hitting the streets."

President Obama claimed Thursday that without his economic stimulus package the poverty rate would have been much worse.
The Census Bureau reported Thursday that 4 million people fell below the poverty line last year, bringing the total to 44 million Americans. That boosted the poverty rate to 14.3 percent, which is the highest it's been since 1994.
Obama said the increase "illustrates just how tough 2009 was" and noted that "because of the Recovery Act and many other programs providing tax relief and income support to a majority of working families — and especially those most in need — millions of Americans were kept out of poverty last year."
The GOP claims the $787 billion stimulus package actually hurt the economy. Only three Republicans voted for its passage.
The slow economic recovery has become a campaign issue as Democrats try to retain control of Congress. The White House tried to promote the success of its economic strategy and the stimulus projects through its six-week "recovery summer" program.
The president noted the report showed that the number of Americans without health insurance climbed to 16.7 percent, but he said the expansion of the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) "helped inoculate our children from the economic distress experienced by their parents."
"The Affordable Care Act will build on that success by expanding health insurance coverage to more families," Obama said.
Obama said that income levels for the middle class, which did not go up in 2009, were already too high before the recession.
"Even before the recession hit, middle-class incomes had been stagnant and the number of people living in poverty in America was unacceptably high, and today's numbers make it clear that our work is just beginning," Obama said. "Our task now is to continue working together to improve our schools, build the skills of our workers and invest in our nation's critical infrastructure."
Despite the bad news, Obama said he is encouraged by the optimism of American workers and is "confident that we will emerge from this storm with a stronger economy."

text: There was repeated discussion of this last fall if you look through the V8 archives on Audifans.com. Basically, your approach will depend upon your circumstances and anatomy, I guess. I'm short and have rather heavy limbs, so I couldn't reach down from the top with all the intake air assembly removed like some suggested, and it was very difficult for me to get both a tool and a hand in between the exhaust piping. What worked best for me was a (I THINK) 10 mm open end wrench taped to a longer 11 mm box end wrench. Now that I've added a few gearwrench tools to my supply, I think I'd try a 10 mm gearwrench taped to the longer wrench. You still have to take off all the air stuff so that you can get to the connectors for the wiring from the sensors. This was such a PITA job, especially lying on your back with the car on jackstands, that I decided to replace both sensors.

They just delivered four boxes, one of which was Liam's bike "from Santa" that was shipped in its original box, making it super obvious what it was. Instead of just dropping it at the door for me to deal with getting it past the kids, they rang the doorbell and let me know what they had before they took it off the truck. Then they put it around back for me so I can sneak it in later while the boys are distracted. That kind of stuff makes me feel somewhat positive about humanity. [/h] Good job. Underneath her comment were many more kudos to UPS drivers, all very positive. Some from New Hampshire, Vermont and more from Tn. I thanked them all for the compliments and suggested that the drivers would love Holiday cookies for thanks (many brought up "appropriate tip.")

[EN: This review was written by guest journalist, Aaron Nicewonger (email@example.com).]
Title: The Crow: Wicked Prayer
Director: Lance Mungia
Writers: Norman Partridge and Lance Mungia
Distributed By: Dimension Films
Starring: Edward Furlong, David Boreanez, Tara Reid, Dennis Hopper, Danny Trejo
Release Date: June 3, 2005
MPAA: Rated R
Jimmy Cuervo (Edward Furlong) is an ex-con living in Lake Ravasu on the Raven Aztec reservation. He was imprisoned for killing a would-be rapist in a fight. Jimmy plans to start a new life with his girlfriend, Lily Ignites The Dawn (Emmanuelle Chriqui), and leave the town for good. Lily's priest father, Harold (Danny Trejo), and brother, local cop Tanner (Dave L. Ortiz), both hate Jimmy. Tanner isn't really important to the plot, but Harold is near the end; if you actually plan on watching, I'll save the spoiler.
The town is home to a group of Satanists led by escaped convict Luc "Death" Crash (David Boreanaz) and his fiancée Lola Byrne (Tara Reid). Along with their three confederates "Pestilence," "Famine," and "War," Luc and Lola murder Lily and Jimmy in a brutal ritual that will cause Satan to manifest through Luc's body. As usual, the mystical Crow resurrects Jimmy and sends him on a quest to avenge his and Lily's death.
Let me start by saying that the original comic, The Crow, has spawned a lot of spin-offs: from movies, TV shows, a game, more comics, and even novels. One such novel was the basis for this film. So, what we have here is essentially a movie, based on a book, inspired by a comic, which inspired a film, to which this particular film serves as a sequel to. Did you follow all that? Basically, we have a spin-off of a spin-off of a spin-off. You know when you make a copy of a copy of a copy, eventually you get a drop in quality?
This movie represents that drop in quality.
If Wicked Prayer had had twice the budget, and twice the talent, it could have been a lot better. The only actor here not hamming up the place is Edward Furlong, but with performances from Terminator 2, American Heart, A Home of Our Own, and American History X, it's clear to see he performs well more often than not. In fact, Furlong delivers my favorite line of this film. During his first encounter with one of the cult members, Jimmy (Furlong) is about to give in to his new urges and kill the man, but stops himself. He tells the guy to warn the others that, "I'm afraid of what I've become. You tell 'em, they should be too."
Unfortunately, the twerp taunts Jimmy, and gets himself killed anyway.
The worst performance of the bunch comes surprisingly from Dennis Hopper, who plays the leader of a Satanic Cult, and dresses like a pimp. This is both shocking and sad, considering Tara Reid is in this movie. It's so over the top and cheesy. I'm talking Waterworld levels of bad, people. I'd cite specific examples, but really I can't. It's his whole performance, which thankfully is mercifully short-lived.
Speaking of Tara Reid, the only good thing I can say about her performance is that she gives Mr. Hopper a run for his money. Seriously folks, she's almost as bad as he is, but the difference here is clear. Dennis Hopper seems to know he's in a bad movie, so he's hamming it up all over the place, whereas Tara is dull and wooden and boring. It seems as if she was going for somber or some sort of subdued sexy, but she comes off as lobotomized.
This is really sad, because anyone that's seen her performance in "Scrubs" or "Van Wilder" knows she can actually do SOMETHING when it comes to acting.
Like the film before it (The Crow: Salvation), this film tries to offer a unique spin on the typical revenge plot, by adding in a satanic rite, and a possible Hell on Earth scenario. But for the most part, it's the same old tired "go from one kill to the next" plot with little to no innovation.
This movie also does, however, manage to offer a cool and unique explanation for how THIS new Crow gets his expected "Crow" look. His black clothes, coat, and make-up are part of a celebration called "Raven Fest," which he was going to attend with Lily.
For the most part, this film is a stereotypical revenge flick with too many clichés from the other films, and not enough of their good qualities.
One thing this movie does differently from ALL of the previous films, is the music. A wonderfully moving score was created by Jamie Christopherson. Scores were written for the other films, but they relied heavily on pre-existing songs for a standard soundtrack. Now, don't get me wrong, those soundtracks were pretty good, but there's just something classy and emotionally stimulating about the use of an original musical score, and a touch of class is something this movie definitely needed.
The Crow: Wicked Prayer is not a terrible movie, but it's certainly not good, either. I give it a 4.5 out of 10.

THE introduction of the meningitis C vaccine has rapidly and substantially reduced outbreaks of the brain dis-ease in young people and was cost effective, experts said yesterday.
In 1999 the Department of Health incorporated the jab into routine infant immunisation across the UK and launched a campaign offering the vaccine to everyone under 18 years old.
A study published yesterday in the British Medical Journal assessed the cost effectiveness of the vaccination campaign - which was the first of its type in the world - among people aged 0-17 years.
Immediately before the introduction of the vaccine, the burden of meningitis C was considerable, with an estimated 1,137 cases in people aged 0-17 years and at least 72 deaths annually.
Researchers at the Public Health Laboratory Service in London found the campaign is estimated to have cost between £126m and £241m.
The cost per life year saved is estimated to be £6,259, they said.
School-based vaccination was more cost effective than routine vaccination of infants, because delivery costs are lower and fewer doses are required, the study concluded.
It said, "The vaccination programme should substantially reduce the future burden of disease and associated costs. It is estimated to prevent 7,880 cases and 845 deaths, resulting in nearly 23,000 discounted life years saved."
Meningitis is an inflammation of the brain's membranes and is usually either a bacterial or viral condition. The viral form is relatively mild but bacterial meningitis is life threatening and requires prompt treatment.
Keith Cartwright, medical director of the Meningitis Trust, welcomed yesterday's "positive news" but warned, "We need to be aware that there are other bacteria that cause meningitis and if in doubt, seek medical advice."

Congratulations! You have graduated from college and are now the proud owner of a diploma, along with a pile of student loan bills. The transition to adulthood can be quite jarring, especially if you have never really had to worry about your own finances before. You might be confused about your options, unsure about what to do, or afraid that you won't be able to make your payments.

It is never a good idea to try to hide, run away, or ignore your student loans completely. You used them to achieve your goal; now it is time to pay the bill. If you don't know what to do, the first step is to do some research and gather all the information you can. Not surprisingly, the federal government has a vested interest in making sure you repay your federal student loans. As such, they provide a wealth of information to help recent college graduates come to terms with their student loan responsibilities. In fact, they have eight student loan payment suggestions that should be of help.

8 Suggestions for Student Loan Repayment

Take action now: Don't ignore those student loans all summer while you have fun, and then work yourself into a frenzy when the payment notices start arriving. There are actions you can take now that will make your life much simpler in the fall. Learn about the available student loan repayment plans so you can find something that fits your post-college financial situation. You might be able to pay nothing for a specified period of time, but you need to talk to your loan servicer to determine if you qualify.

Get a budgeting mindset: If your parents kept you on a tight budget in college, you are already a step ahead. You will need those skills to get you through your student loan repayment years. Put together a budget for your estimated income and living expenses to estimate how much you have left to earmark for these payments.

Learn your options: If you do nothing, you will be entered into the Standard Repayment Plan, which allows you to repay your student loans over ten years. While this is usually the fastest way to repay that debt, the monthly payments might be a stretch for some students. Check out available repayment plans which could extend the term of your loan, or adjust the payments based on the income you earn.

Your loan might be forgiven: In some specific situations, the government may forgive part of your loan or even provide money to help you repay it, depending on your post-college plans. Don't make any repayment decisions without first learning whether you are eligible for loan forgiveness.

Start a direct pay relationship: Most students today are already familiar with online banking, which can come in very handy for making student loan payments. Ask your loan servicer how to sign up for automatic debit so your payments will be automatically taken from your bank account each month. You'll also get a 0.25% interest rate deduction when you enroll.

Make extra payments: Once you become employed, you might find that you are actually earning more money than your expenses. Great for you! That might not be true if you decide to get married or buy a home of your own, so it makes sense to use any extra money you might have now to pay down your student loans. Inform your loan servicer that any extra amount is not to be put toward future payments. If you have not consolidated your loans, you'll also need to tell them to apply any additional amount to the loan with the highest interest rate.

Think twice about postponing payments: Although you might be able to participate in a deferment or forbearance option, think twice before you take advantage of this opportunity. In most cases, interest will continue to build.

Get help: Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. Your loan servicer provides help at no charge. Do not pay outside companies which say they can help, but charge a fee.

From being on Nigerian forums, I have increased my knowledge of Nigerian artists 1000 fold. One DJ in Chicago, Dee Money, would release some gbedus (mixes?) as he used to call them for us to download and they were really great (I originally typed "off the chain", but I feel like such a fraud because I'd probably never say that in person).
The thing with mixes though is you don't always recognize the artist who is playing. So, my solution is to try and get some exposure to as many Nigerian artists as I can, so that recognition of artists will be easier.
Artists that I am familiar with (meaning that at least 50% of the time I'd guess the artist correctly):
- 2 Face
- 9ice
- Asa
- D'banj
- P Square
- Styl Plus
- Wande Coal
(I'm not including the classics that I grew up listening to: Obey, Sunny Ade, and Sunny Okosun, and though I haven't heard any of their songs used in a gbedu yet, I wouldn't be surprised to hear some of them sampled in future songs.)
Artists I'd recognize only if they play specific songs (indicated in brackets):
- Marvelous Benjy (Just a Little)
- Mad Melon and Mountain Black (Danfo Driver)
- Olu Maintain (Yahooze)
- Sunny Nneji (Oruka)
- Tosin Martins (Olo mi)
Your turn: What Nigerian artists' work do you admire? Is there new talent that the rest of us need to know about?
(If you want to listen to a bunch of music by Nigerian artists, the place to go is Dudu Radio (must open using Internet Explorer). It has an amazing collection of music by many artists (but look how many of them there are! This is why I turned to you.)
2014 Update: there are now a ton of different websites to learn about the latest music. A regular in past Nigerian Blog Awards nominations in the Best Music Blog category is Not Just Ok.

First "Clean" means that the vine does not carry disabling diseases at the time of planting. That means vines are free from viruses, fungal and bacterial pathogens that cannot be cured once the vine is infected. The fungal and bacterial pathogens can be controlled by growing the vines in the proper climate, using sterile nursery protocols, and taking preventative measures to keep them healthy. Sunridge Nursery is located in the Southern San Joaquin Valley, which has a dry desert climate conducive to growing without as much risk of these organisms infecting their grapevines. The virus issue is a bigger challenge, because the health of the stock material is critical to preventing the spread of a virus. That is why the best vine you can possibly plant is a California Certified vine with a pedigree that is traceable back to a known mother vine.
California Certification refers to a Clean Stock Program that was set up with the cooperation of nurseries, the California University system, the California Dept. of Food and Ag., (CDFA), and the grapevine industry.
This program has written rules, is administered by CDFA, and the site of all grapevine source mother vines and all program activities are at Foundation Plant Services, (FPS), at U.C. Davis. The source vines are submitted to FPS, tested for at least two years, and once they are deemed "clean" two vines are planted in their Foundation Block. Nurseries are required to have CDFA do a site survey to gain site approval before acquiring the FPS foundation vines to start a Registered and Certified Increase Block. Only first generation cuttings from a nurseries' registered increase block can be called "Certified." Both the rootstock and the budwood must be sourced from a registered block to qualify as certified.
"Clean" is commitment that we have made to our customers and the industry. Sunridge Nurseries has replaced older increase blocks with the latest, most extensively tested material available, which FPS has dubbed as the "Protocol 2010" grapevine stock material. It has been shoot-tip cultured at FPS and verified that it is virus free and Crown Gall free using both RT-PCR and TaqMan qPCR methods to screen for viruses. FPS has also compared this material with original clones, to verify that they have not been altered during the treatments, before releasing them to nurseries.

Translators' House Wales
Translators' House Wales is a programme of activity which seeks to raise the profile of literary translation as an art in Wales. It was founded when Wales Literature Exchange formed a partnership with Tŷ Newydd: National Writers' Centre for Wales (now part of Literature Wales) to encourage more opportunities for writers and translators from abroad to spend time researching, writing and connecting with the literary scene in Wales.
Translators' House also enables writers, translators, publishers and audiences in Wales to discover other literary worlds on their own doorstep. As well as residencies and workshops, annual projects include the Translation Challenge, the winner of which is awarded an especially commissioned Bardic Staff at the National Eisteddfod.

I have a feeling the social justice warrior crew is going to have a field day with Bravo after this one!
Apparently, Real Housewives of Orange County star, Shannon Beador, is being body shamed by Bravo producers, as they told her that she is becoming obese.
Shannon has made it known on the show that she's noticed her weight gain, and she's doing what she can to combat the situation, but a source close to production has come forward and said that Bravo producers actually stepped in and warned her about the whole situation:
Producers have approached Shannon about her weight gain. They told her that she is becoming obese, and that she needs to lose the weight.
Shannon made it clear early on in the season that she was working on losing the excess weight, and even hosted a Facebook live event, in an attempt at gaining some weight loss inspiration.
Unfortunately, broadcasting her training sessions with her trainer didn't pan out for too long, and she then took to complaining on social media about her new figure.
Home eating less, exercising each day and still gaining weight! ? @TamraBarney called Dr. Lee for me today. #knowitshormones #hategettingold
— Shannon Beador (@ShannonBeador) October 16, 2016
@wandamill61 I'm at a pound every couple days. Unbelievable…
— Shannon Beador (@ShannonBeador) October 16, 2016
Another source close to Shannon opened up about the weight gain, saying that they believe they know the reason behind the recent weight gain:
Those close to Shannon believe that she is stress eating — due to all of the abuse allegations about David coming to the surface. She needs to bring her emotional eating under control, because production is watching.
What do you think about Bravo calling Shannon out on her weight gain?
Sound off in the comments below!

As with a lot of things, I find the regular price of these to be a little high, but there are often coupons available for them and they are also often on sale. When they are on sale I stock up for a week or two. I can't get my teenagers to eat breakfast on the way out the door in the morning, but they will grab one of these and drink them on the way to the bus. I also like grabbing one and being able to drink it in the car on my commute. I love the taste, and the consistency is just right for a drinkable yogurt.
These were superb. I bought them a couple of weeks ago for 93 cents for a four pack. It was a steal. The taste was great. It was very creamy and smooth at the same time. I am a yoghurt kind of gal and haven't tried too many of drinkable kinds, but this was very good.
just love it. taste amazing and very creamy. very nice as a snack just right filling. my daughter has one of these yogourts every morning. I definately recommend this.
This product tastes really good! It is a great start to your morning! The flavour tastes very natural, almost like a smoothie.
Fantastic product. I love the flavor, tastes very natural. Amazing size for snack time or breakfast substitute. Love it!

First things first: If you're out on Twitter, I want to know why you haven't come by to see me yet. Hanging out in the Twitterverse has sparked some great conversations with fellow printers, including this one about what it's like to be a woman in printing and where the biggest challenge lies.
When I gave a shout-out to my printing ladies in the Twitterverse last week, asking them to tell me what they thought was the hardest part of being a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry, I was surprised by the answers I got. I figured at least one of them would have something to say about banging their head against the typical glass-ceiling, boy's club environment. That wasn't the case. Most of them were concerned about trying to balance their home and work lives without feeling like they were being a horrible wife or mother for putting their career first.
When I read through their responses (and they were plentiful), I had to smile. Because it doesn't matter what industry you're in, if you've got a family, whether it's husband, child, father, mother, sister or second cousin twice removed, at some point you're going to have to make a choice. Who do you spend time with? How dead are you going to be if you skip a family dinner because you have a HUGE deadline Monday morning and you need to get a head start on Sunday night? (If your family's anything like mine, the answer to that is pretty darn dead. Make that decision very, very carefully.)
So how do our printing ladies do it? Several had been known to take their kids to work on their days off, and invite their husbands along on their business trips. Working at all hours of the night to have their days free wasn't unusual, and many of them recommended working from home as often as possible. And all of them agreed that unless something major popped up, like a deadline that was going to blow up in their face if they didn't jump on it, like, yesterday, work hours were work hours and family time was family time, and ne'er the twain shall meet.
The struggle to balance work and family life certainly isn't exclusive to our ladies of the press. How do you balance work and family?

The PRS Custom 24 Electric Guitar is based on the original classic PRS guitars. The perfect combination of woods " maple top, mahogany back and neck, plus rosewood fretboard " meets the perfect electronics " HFS bridge and Vintage Bass neck pickups. Super-tight neck joint adds sustain and quality feel. 10" radius fretboard on a wide, thin neck grants very speedy freedom on the 24 fat frets. 5-way rotary pickup selector delivers precision tonal options. All crafted by master luthiers. You can't lose. Includes hardshell case.
5-Position Rotary Pickup Selector
This PRS feature allows great tonal versatility using two PRS humbucking pickups. The switch combines the coils of each pickup to produce all of the "PRS tones".
Rotary Positions (numbers on the control knob):
¢ Position 10: Treble pickup - powerful with plenty of definition - traditional humbucker tone
¢ Position 9: Outside coils in parallel - deep and clear sound
¢ Position 8: Series single-coils - warm version of in-between the treble and middle pickups.
¢ Position 7: Parallel single-coils - crisp version of in-between the treble and middle pickups
¢ Position 6: Bass pickup - warm with tons of character - traditional humbucker tone
Reviewed by 5 customers
This guitar plays like a dream, and considering it's price it just may be the best guitar available. This is a beautiful guitar with amazing hardware which looks much much better in person than any photos of it online. It has excellent tone definition and a great crisp sound. The pick-ups give you an excellent sharp sounding tone which is perfect for playing styles like rock, blues, or metal. This guitar is just amazing and you cant get the full experience just by reading reviews, do yourself a favor and play this guitar, you will buy it without thinking twice.
Ive seen a bunch of guitars in magazines and on line and PRS guitars are the only ones that consistently look better in person. My custom 24 I had custom ordered in whale blue quilted. It is the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen. The two guitars I had played most before getting this one were the strat and Les Paul. My deal was I thought the Les Paul was too heavy and didnt feel good when you played it sitting down, the strats shape felt good but lets face it you cant really play metal on a strat. The custom 24 is the perfect blend of these two, a light guitar that sits well but instead of the strats country tone you get the most versatile guitar on earth that can melt your face, blow the roof off your house or put you to sleep before you can even start counting sheep. Play it and fall in love.
I think, simply put, that PRS guitars are quite possibly the best guitars made (well... short of buying a custom built Anderson or Suhr or Zion). Judging by mine, that's certainly the case. Mine is a 20th anniversary PRS Custom 24 in blue quilt which i purchased new for a pitance as it was on sale. The only differences between it and the model listed on this website are the bird inlays are the 20th anniversary inlays and it has a 3 way versus a 5 way switch. Regardless, the guitar sounds like you would expect an instrument of this price to sound. The pickups are well vioced and have character (unlike Gibson LP pickups which in my opinion sound very common and get lost in the mix when playing with others). The sustain is also absolutly awesome. I'm used to an American Strat, no poor man's guitar, and even versus the A.S it's a huge improvement. The guitar was well worth the price. I'd easily pay twice as much for a guitar this good.
This guitar is simply flawless. It sings, it sustains, the tonal variety is mind boggling, it stays in tune, it is consistant throughout the fretboard, the trem bridge is great, it looks spectacular. I wish I hadn't waited so long to buy one. It is the only guitar in which I have ever used the tone knob. The case is beautiful. I want another one !!!
WOW!!! This is a really great guitar! I've played just about every PRS guitar, but this one really stands out. Its sound is absolutely crystal clear; its been awhile since i've seen a guitar with this good sound quality. I absolutely recommend this guitar to any musician...that is, if you can afford the hefty price tag...if you're just starting out, you might wanna get a cheaper guitar, but that's up to you.

|Next Time, Take Out Some Earthquake Insurance!
The first episode occurred when a small group of women wearing identical "Can'tOrWon't" tee shirts entered one of his district offices for an appointment. Cantor was a no-show. While they were trying to get him on the office phone, the cops showed up, saying they were responding to a complaint of a disturbance. The women left and the officers made sure they did. Check out the video. You tell me if this group posed a terrorist threat. Of course, the way they insist on calling him "Can't-or" probably does nothing to endear them to the sensitive Eric.
Later on, when another group of constituents showed up for a private town hall at a Richmond Holiday Inn, Cantor had hired bouncers already on hand for this Tea Party invitation-only affair to eject the crashers. Here they are, demonstrating in the parking lot. (Think Progress has more. The progressives had actually booked space in the hotel and were later asked to leave by the Holiday Inn. Now there is talk of a national boycott against Holiday Inn.)
Last year, there was the beating of a Democratic constituent by a Cantor thug bearing a striking resemblance to a character from "The Hills Have Eyes."
What a way to end a summer of Cantor love. His trifecta of heartless rebuffs in the name of some phoney fiscal ideology to victims of a tornado, an earthquake and a tropical storm all in the space of just a few months not only alienated every decent person on the planet, it even made New Jersey Governor Chris Christie mad. One of the nastiest GOP governors who ever lived thinks Cantor is way beyond mean and nasty. All this, on top of his temper tantrum success at dominating Debt Ceiling Crisis Theater and not holding a single public town hall for his whole August vacation. He brings a whole new meaning to the term "Recess Bully".
Young Gun Eric has been shooting some major blanks. He appears to be suffering from the hubristic and usually fatal disease of Republican Overreach. Never having won an election with less than 59 percent of the vote, his confidence knows no bounds. As one blogger put it, Cantor is best understood when you view him as a lobbyist posing as a legislator. He is all about the money.... for himself and for his oligarchic compatriots and for his fellow reps. He got where he is today, and his party tolerates his repulsive whining and demands, because he knows how to get money. Piles and piles and piles of it.
He was a protege of former House Speaker and convicted felon Tom DeLay, and was one of his most ardent supporters until it no longer served his own interests. He slavishly called DeLay "Boss". And then there was the star-crossed friendship with lobbyist and convicted felon Jack Abramoff, who once named one of his famous deli sandwiches after Eric Cantor. Eric joked about it at the time, bragging about how he changed it from a tuna stacker to a roast beef on challah because that "exuded Jewish power." Then Abramoff was indicted -- and suddenly Eric denied even knowing anything about the alleged sandwich. (Larry David used the sandwich saga as the basis of an episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm", even though, Cantor-style, he has always denied the connection). Just to make sure people believed him, Cantor achingly announced he was giving all his Abramoff cash to charity.
We all complain about the stenographic mainstream media dutifully parroting the wit and wisdom of the nefarious politicians, but Cantor more than has them in the bag. His state's "paper of record", the Richmond Times-Dispatch, is owned by a media conglomerate directed by Cantor's very own wife Diana, a former Goldman Sachs vice president. Every time the newspaper runs an article (usually favorable) about the congressman, it adds a caveat at the bottom, revealing the relationship and at the same time denying any conflict of interest. All in the name of being fair and balanced, naturally.
Some of the stories are truly hilarious, and they usually fall into the category of Eric or his staff excusing the latest gaffe, explaining the latest lie, or waxing indignant that someone even dared to call Wonder Boy a hypocrite. My favorite is when Cantor tried to weasel his way out of explaining how his wife accepted a TARP bailout for a bank she also runs. Her taking the money was purely accidental and a con game perpetrated on her by the government! They fooled the poor woman, by golly. A staffer called it "a freak coincidence" that Mrs. Cantor's bank received a $267 million bailout from legislation her husband helped push through. She said she had no idea where the money came from, and certainly never lobbied for it.
But once in awhile, there's a slip-up and Diana Cantor's paper prints the truth. Somehow, "Politifact Virginia" managed to hack into the paper's website (or so Eric might have us believe) last October and award him with their top "Pants on Fire" liar rating when he said that "in the past two years the Democrats have spent more money than this country spent in the last 200 years combined."
And Politifact was duly aghast, writing: "That's wrong no matter how you slice it! And it's not just wrong -- it's ridiculously wrong. We rate the claim Pants on Fire."
The AP awarded Cantor its "hypocrite of the week" honors when he became majority leader this year and promptly increased spending on his own staff by 16 percent, at the same time he was positioning himself as a deficit hawk. All told, Cantor has raised staff salaries by a total of 81 percent since he was elected to Congress.
Another memorable headline in Cantor hypocrisy says it all: "Stimulus Dollars Have Not Produced Jobs, Cantor Says, While Hosting a Jobs Fair With Companies That Received $52 Million to Create Jobs." (ThinkProgress).
Feeling depressed, angry, bored by all of this? Take heart. Out of the miasma of the Virginia swamps arises one E. Wayne Powell, a former military intelligence officer and progressive Democrat who is mounting a serious challenge to our favorite crooked politician. Nobody has ever seriously challenged Cantor before. The man is entrenched in the corrupt system. But Powell is starting early, has tons of support and is raising money. And he doesn't look like a Spineless Democrat! He looks like he could easily take on Cantor's hired thugs. I eagerly anticipate the debates Eric will cancel out of his customary cowardice, and his inevitable McCarthyesque downfall, and a reprieve from more egregious nastiness to come out of one politician in 10 years than in more than 200 years of the entire history of American politics.

In the icy, monster-plagued world of the Frost, one wrong move and a person could end up dead—and Lia Weaver knows this better than anyone. After monsters kill her parents, she must keep the family farm running despite the freezing cold and threat of monster attacks or risk losing her siblings to reassignment by the village Elders. With dangers on all sides and failure just one wrong step away, she can't afford to let her emotions lead her astray. So when her sister finds a fugitive bleeding to death in the forest—a young stranger named Gabe—Lia surprises herself and does the unthinkable.
She saves his life.
Giving shelter to the fugitive could get her in trouble. The Elders have always described the advanced society of people beyond the Frost, the "Farthers," as ruthless and cruel. But Lia is startled to find that Gabe is empathetic and intelligent…and handsome. She might even be falling in love with him.
But time is running out. The monsters from the forest circle the farm at night. The village leader is starting to ask questions. Farther soldiers are searching for Gabe. Lia must locate a secret organization called the Thorns to help Gabe escape to safety, but every move she makes puts her in more danger.
Is compassion—and love—worth the risk?

My Thoughts on Frost:
This young adult book is an overall interesting read. I greatly enjoyed the journey into the land of Frost, but feel as though I've left a seriously awesome buffet yet still just a bit hungry. The concept of a separate race, those living on the cold, barren outskirts called the Frost, and the mysterious modern society, the Farthers, who lived in their own country beyond, appealed to me. My curiosity was piqued from the beginning concerning the shadowy Farthers. The two races never mix and the Frost people live in fear of these Farthers. The lives of Lia Weaver and her village are further controlled by the danger presented by the Watchers, creatures of the night, who are considered to both protect the village and endanger its people at the same time.
I'm not one to be drawn to first person narrative, but Kate Avery Ellison makes it work. Lia, the heroine of the story, makes the fear and self consciousness she feels every moment come alive as she lives and works to survive after her parents were brutally attacked and killed by Watchers .The lack of Lia's knowledge about the Watchers and the Farthers left many questions that hopefully will be answered in the next book in this series. I also have high hopes that there will be more to the budding romance between Lia and the young Farther she rescued.
While I felt I knew Lia's story, I was not as familiar with her brother and sister. I felt as though these characters were two dimensional. They were there, but there just wasn't enough substance to truly bring them to life. I also never could get a clear picture of Lia's home environment. The descriptions were somewhat vague. I enjoy a complete picture of characters' surroundings and I like to become familiar with the environment in which they live. I felt a bit cheated.
Now, the ending was excellent! Even though it was a somewhat rushed, it was full of surprises and a great deal of mystery. Being introduced to new concepts and ideas at the very end of the book left me hungry for more. What a great way to make sure your readers buy the next book! I certainly will be looking for it !My only hope is that I don't feel as rushed reading book two. I enjoy books that are on slow simmer instead of rapid boil. It makes for a delicious, savory meal that leaves one totally satisfied.
Overall, Frost is an excellent read with enough mystery and surprise to definitely make me eager for the next serving. If you want The Hunger Games meets The Maze Runner, get your copy and dig in!

Rochelle's fears for hen night
Rochelle Wiseman has revealed her worries about her upcoming hen do.
The 23-year-old Saturdays singer, who is engaged to JLS' Marvin Humes, is having a joint bash with bandmate Una Healy this weekend, but has no idea of what is in store.
"I'm terrified of what the girls are planning for my hen do. They won't tell me anything. But God knows what they have in mind. I'm frightened," she told the Daily Star.
Frankie Sandford hinted that it could be as epic as Marvin's eight-day stag do in Las Vegas, where he was seen being handcuffed to a dwarf, riding on a helicopter and wearing a bikini.
"We're gonna have a crazy one and try to give the boys a run for their money," she teased.
"We've planned lots of fun stuff with the maids of honour. It should be exciting. We're not going to let them off lightly. There's a lot of us going so it will be interesting," she added.
Both Rochelle and Una - whose fiance is England rugby player Ben Foden - are set to get married this summer.

Are you in a legal jam? Find a Lawyer, Bail Bondsman or Private Investigator on JammedUp.
By STEPHANIE SIEK
NEW YORK (AP) — One person was killed and three others wounded in a shooting inside a concert venue in New York City, where hip-hop artist T.I. was scheduled to perform, police said.
It happened around 10:15 p.m. Wednesday in a third-floor green room area at Irving Plaza, near Manhattan's Union Square. It was not immediately known who had access to that area.
Police said a 33-year-old man was shot in the stomach. He was taken to a hospital, where he died a short time later. A 34-year-old man was shot in the chest. He was listed in critical condition. A 26-year-old woman and a 30-year-old man were both shot in the leg. They were expected to survive.
Elijah Rodriguez was attending the concert with his sister and they were in the VIP area by the stage. He said T.I. was supposed to go on stage at 9 or 9:30 p.m. but "he never showed up." At or around 10 p.m. he said the venue started playing music again, and at about 10:15 p.m., he saw a line of people coming out from where the performers were coming onstage.
"All the sudden I heard someone saying that there was a shot, that someone got shot," Rodriguez said.
Rodriguez didn't actually hear the shots himself, but heard people saying that someone had gotten shot.
"It was scary to deal with. When I got outside, like literally across the street, there were a few girls having, like, panic attacks. One girl thought she saw someone get shot in front of her," Rodriguez said, adding that T.I was not onstage when the shots were fired.
Video shot inside the venue showed a chaotic scene as concertgoers rushed to the sides trying to leave the area as a group of people tended to a person on the floor.
Representatives for T.I., whose real name is Clifford Joseph Harris Jr., said they were referring all questions about the shooting to police.
No arrests were made. No other information was immediately available.
Irving Plaza is a 1,025-person ballroom-style music venue.

Many website owners wish to connect to customers in a specific area. A local hair salon, for example, is best optimized for local towns. With an optimized website, a local restaurant can trump the local competition. In the past, hair salons and restaurants relied on newspaper or magazine ads to attract attention. Today, however, the Internet is the best venue for advertising a local business.
However, the true advantage of promoting your product of service online is the global nature of the Internet. If you have the capability to sell globally, the simple addition of a well-optimized website can dramatically increase your customer base.
And even if you operate locally, it's a good idea to think globally. With website optimization, you can advertise a new product or service around the world instantly.
In the past, the barriers to global marketing seemed insurmountable; and even in the Internet age, questions of shipping and logistics have stymied many businesses. And yet, today more then ever, these barriers seem to be crumbling.
With the recent purchase of Quest Visual, which makes the nifty translation app, Word Lens, Google has seemingly set its sights on tackling perhaps the biggest barrier to global marketing: language.
The Word Lens app, available now on Android and iOS phones as well as Google Glass, translates printed words with a device's camera. Users simply point the device at some foreign text, say on a map or menu, and the app translates the text instantly.
|The writer, Gary Shteyngart, explored Google Glass for the New Yorker
World Lens is fast and accurate. We hope that Google can quickly integrate the technology into its existing Google Translate--already available to any Google user.
So what does this mean for your website? Google Translate is not the best translation app, yet the purchase of Word Lens seems to portend great things for those who wish to participate in the global marketplace. In the near-future, you will hopefully be able to reach a great majority of the global marketplace with a simple, streamlined, and well-optimized web site that can be easily translated, word for word, into any language by Google itself.
In the meantime, however, if you wish to get a jump on the competition, you would do well to offer several languages on your website. The Organic SEO Blog's sponsor, Stepmans PC, routinely creates websites in multiple languages, including English, Russian, and Ukrainian, to name a few.
Any good website development firm should be able to translate your site into multiple languages. The best firms, like Stepmans PC, employ professional copywriters to create unique language-specific text. Yet, any website development firm should offer the option of a translated website. After all, Google itself offers this ability with Google Translate. Even a simply-translated site can prove beneficial.
Do you sell a global product? If so, how to promote the product to different countries and languages?

How was socialism linked to men working outside the home during the Industrial Revolution?
- print Print
- list Cite
Before the Industrial Revolution, men tended to work in their own homes. This was the system in which (for example) shoes would be made by a skilled cobbler working in a shop that was part of his own home. He might do his work with the help of apprentices and assistants who lived there as well. This was a very small-scale and personal kind of work with personal ties between master craftsmen and their assistants. The assistants would become masters in their own rights.
With the Industrial Revolution, this changed. Now, shoes would be made in factories by relatively unskilled workers who had no close relationship with the bosses and who would not progress to become master craftsmen. This caused a great deal of tension between employers and employees. It was a new sort of relationship. These tensions led to the rise of socialism.

It is getting better and better for Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose and AC/DC as another music icon is all praises for the band's performance with Rose.
KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons has applauded the team up of Rose and the Australian band. "I think it's great. I think Axl being with AC/DC — best thing that can happen to both bands," he said in an interview with radio station 105.7 The Eagle in Montana.
AC/DC has invited the Guns N' Roses rockstar to fill in for Brian Johnson after he took time off because of hearing loss.
Blabbermouth wrote that AC/DC bassist Cliff Williams recently revealed that he will retire from recording and performing after they finish the band's current Rock or Bust" tour.
In 2014, co-founder and guitarist Malcolm Young left AC/DC after he was diagnosed with dementia. Meanwhile, drummer Phil Rudd was sentenced to house arrest last year after he was found guilty on a drug charge.
If Williams left the band, Angus Young will be the only one remaining member from the lineup that recorded the classic albums Highway To Hell, Back In Black and For Those About To Rock…We Salute You.
Meawhile, Guns N' Roses was detained at the Canadian border recently for having a gun on board.
Axl Rose made the revelation during the band's sold-out concert at Toronto's Rogers Centre over the weekend. Rose said the customs officers were very nice and understanding, but also stressed that the gun was not his.
According to Billboard, a GNR representative confirmed Axl Rose's story and said it happened last Friday when they were crossing the border from their stop in Philadelphia. The band's rep added that the gun did not belong to any member of Guns N' Roses.
The band recently reunited with its long-estranged drummer Steve Adler after more than 25 years. He was fired in 1990 due to drug abuse.
Guns N' Roses is currently on their Not In This Lifetime tour. Once it concludes on August 22 in San Diego at Qualcomm Stadium, Rose will join AC/DC once again for the continuation of the Rock or Bust tour.

The root should have a different icon to the left of the text, and no
+/- symbols (although they could be present if necessary, normally a
click would expand/contract the root.) When I look at a YUI tree with
a single depth 1 node, the dotted line extending above the + gives the
impression we are using a workaround. It just doesn't look right.
It may be that my expectations are at fault and that such precision is
not the norm in web application development. I would hope that is not
the case.
Thanks for your reply and any other light you can shed on these fine

text: My extended-Step Mom...LOL was asking how things were going with K and wanted to give us encouragement not to give up, she related this story about her daughter who was 15 at the time. I thought it was interesting and had never heard of this. Here is part of her e-mail to me: Sounds like progress. Slow, but in the right direction. A good doctor that listens and asks all the questions is so very crucial. Did I tell you about Cxxxxxx being diagnosed with Lupus when she was 15? We went to 6 or 7 doctors and got at least that many diagnoses and medications. They were saying chronic fatigue, depression, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, cytomegalovirus, liver disease, etc. They told us that it could affect her ever having children, might shorten her life, was incurable, etc. The last doctor (after about 9 months of horrible symptoms), a wonderful woman, took two weeks to figure it out. And it turned out she had drug-induced lupus from an antibiotic her dermatologist had her on. When she stopped the antibiotic, the symptoms started going away. It's not the same as your situation, but I do understand having frustration and anger at the medical system! I thought this might help someone??? Maybe you all know about it already??? But I had never heard of it?

The likely demise of the Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.-Gennady Golovkin fight comes down to what Chavez manager Billy Keane said was Top Rank's "far beneath market value" offer to Chavez.
Middleweight titlist Golovkin was supposed to move up to super middleweight and face Chavez on July 19 in an HBO PPV main event at the Forum in Inglewood, California, but earlier this week Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com the fight was likely off because he was unable to come to terms with Chavez. Golovkin signed for the fight weeks ago.
Keane told ESPN.com Wednesday night that the reason Chavez-Golovkin "is thus far not happening is that we were offered a deal for the July fight that we felt was far beneath market value. Chavez immediately accepted the fight terms because this is the fight that he wants and this is the fight the fans want. But what Julio didn't accept was the extensions that Top Rank wanted in the contract."
At first, Top Rank offered Chavez a deal for the fight that was contingent upon an agreement to extend his promotional agreement with the company. Arum said Chavez's deal runs through October 2015. Keane would not confirm or deny the length of the agreement.
Chavez (48-1-1, 32 KOs), however, did not want to sign an extension and, eventually, Top Rank also put an offer for the Golovkin fight on the table that did not include an extension, but was for far less guaranteed money than if the company got an extension.
Keane said Top Rank was asking for a two-fight extension beyond the fight with Golovkin (29-0, 26 KOs), which Chavez did not want to sign.
"We agreed on the purse [offered in the deal with the extension], the venue, the weight, the opponent. We agreed on everything except the two-fight extension," Keane said. "Top Rank was not willing to honor that deal without the extension. Subsequently, they offered a stand-alone fight without the extension but the basic terms included a guarantee for what Julio made for [the first Bryan Vera fight], the same guarantee that Golovkin was getting and less than one-third of the original offer with the extensions, which is obviously far below what is fair for pay-per-view fights of this stature."
According to the California State Athletic Commission, Chavez's official purse for the first fight with Vera in September was $2.5 million (six figures of which was forfeited when Chavez failed to make weight).
Earlier in the week, Arum told ESPN.com of the talks with Chavez, "But what Chavez wants is the bigger purse without the futures. Why would we take a risk losing money on the fight with Golovkin and then we lose the kid as well? If we can make money and then he wants to go on his way, OK. But he can't have it both ways."
As it related to the Chavez offer for Golovkin, Keane added that "the so-called upside on the pay-per-view did not even kick in until Top Rank made multiple millions of dollars, more than Chavez and likely more than both fighters combined. This is why the fight is no longer happening. It's completely disturbing and completely unfair how these negotiations were."
Keane also said that for Chavez's recent fights, Top Rank has tried to get Chavez to sign contract extensions, but that the fighter does not want any extension to be part of a fight negotiation.
