The Dell XPS 13 Late 2016 (9360) is the fourth-generation model of the XPS 13 line. The laptop is available since October (pre-2017 model) in both a standard edition with Windows installed as well as both a pre-2017 model and a 2017 model (with insignificant hardware differences) Developer Edition with Ubuntu 16.04 "SP1" installed, featuring kernel 4.8 as of now. There is only minor hardware differences between them, mostly in regards to the mainboard microchip manufacturers. Just like the older versions (9333, 9343 and 9350) it is available in different hardware configurations as well. These fourth gen models includes Intel's Kaby Lake CPUs and advertised with up to 16GB LPDDR 1866 MHz RAM and a 1TB PCI SSD. It will now also be available in Rose Gold. Prior to previous information and current specifications available provided by Dell (at least to regular customers), it is not available with the 2133 MHz RAM speed. However, some models, including those available to employees and possibly Dell partners (and/or business customers), memory speed is indeed available up to 2133 Mhz LPDDR3 (non-upgradable). The same mentioned models are also available with the Intel Core i7-7660U (aswell as i7-7560U) with the Intel 640 Iris Plus onboard graphics. Respective clock frequencies are 2.5 Ghz (up to 4GHz in Turbo-mode) and 2,4 Ghz (up to 3.8 Ghz), respectively.
The installation process for Arch on the XPS 13 does not differ from any other PC. For installation help, please see the Installation guide and UEFI. This page covers the current status of hardware support on Arch, as well as post-installation recommendations.
As of kernel 4.5, the Intel Kaby Lake architecture is supported.

Content Adaptive Brightness Control
In the XPS 13 the display panels (both FHD and QHD+) come with Content Adaptive Brightness Control (usually referred to as CABC or DBC) embedded in the panel firmware - it adjusts the screen brightness depending on the content displayed on the screen. While it saves a bit of power, it is generally undesirable, especially for Linux users who are likely to be switching between dark and light screen content. Dell has issued a fix for this, however it is only available to run in Windows. The fix is available directly from Dell.
To test if your XPS 13 is affected by the CABC, go to this test page. It is possible to apply Dell's firmware update using a portable Windows 10 on a USB device:
- Install (for example) woeusb-gitAUR
- Download a Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft's website
- Create a portable Windows 10 installation using woeusb
- Boot the XPS 13 from your Windows 10 USB device (F12)
- In Windows, download and install the latest driver for the Intel Graphics controller
- Then download and install this tool to update the panel firmware. The tool gives you the option to disable CABC
- Reboot (from USB)
- Reboot to Arch Linux and rerun the test
NVM Express SSD Power Saving
For some devices it might be necessary to set a higher value for the
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us parameter to enable all power saving states. This parameter has to be set on the kernel command line.
For the Toshiba 512GB SSD used in some models of the XPS 13 the value to enable all states is 170000 (the combined latency of entering and leaving the highest power state, add
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=170000 to your kernel command line). For the 1TB SSD this valued should be increased to 180000 instead. To check if all states are enabled you can use the nvme-cliAUR package, which provides the
nvme-cli command:
# nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0 get-feature:0xc (Autonomous Power State Transition), Current value:0x000001 Autonomous Power State Transition Enable (APSTE): Enabled Auto PST Entries ................. Entry[ 0] ................. Idle Time Prior to Transition (ITPT): 1500 ms Idle Transition Power State (ITPS): 3 ................. Entry[ 1] ................. Idle Time Prior to Transition (ITPT): 1500 ms Idle Transition Power State (ITPS): 3 ................. Entry[ 2] ................. Idle Time Prior to Transition (ITPT): 1500 ms Idle Transition Power State (ITPS): 3 ................. Entry[ 3] ................. Idle Time Prior to Transition (ITPT): 8500 ms Idle Transition Power State (ITPS): 4 .................
If the power states are enabled there should be values for ITPT and ITPS in the first entries. Also the ITPS-value of the last filled entry should be the highest power saving-state of the SSD (which can be viewed using
smartctl -a /dev/nvme0 or
nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0).
The video should work with the
i915 driver of the current linux kernel. Consult Intel graphics for a detailed installation and configuration guide as well as for Intel graphics#Troubleshooting.
If you have the QHD+ (3200x1800) model, also check out HiDPI for UI scaling configurations.
But there might be video issues left for this model. Please help by contributing any feedback about similar issues you might have experience(d) to this bugreport (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100671).
Module-based Powersaving Options
For the HD 620 graphics card the following modules are working: (see Intel graphics#Module-based Powersaving Options)
modeset=1 enable_fbc=1
The first argument is to enable modesetting if it's not set by default. The second argument is needed to activate framebuffer compression power savings. These values should work well!
This argument is used to enable GuC updates. GuC is a small proprietary binary blob released by intel to update the GuC binary in faster intervals than the kernel release does. It is used for graphics workload scheduling on the various graphics parallel engines. More details at (https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/firmware). The GuC binary for kaby lake is included since firmware release linux-firmware 20170217 in the official repository. HuC is also a binary blob from intel. It's designed to offload some of the media functions from the CPU to GPU. As of kernel 4.12, HuC is loaded if GuC is enabled. One can check with 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_huc_load_status' and 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_guc_load_status'.
Panel Self Refresh (PSR) is working for eDP 1.3 and up and does stop the creation of new frames when the screen content is static to save energy. If you experience problems with PSR try to set 'disable_power_well=0' or disable otherwise.
enable_psr=1 may need to add the
modconf hook to your Mkinitcpio to avoid a hang after resume. The xf86-video-intel-gitAUR package was required to solve the bug for me as well, even though I was using Wayland.
NOT WORKING: semaphores=1
The semaphore option is NOT working for kaby lake CPUs and won't enable even if you set the option to 1.
Blank screen issue after booting
If using "late start" KMS (the default) and the screen goes blank when loading modules, it may help to add
i915 and
intel_agp to the initramfs or using a special kernel parameter. Consult Intel graphics#Blank screen during boot, when "Loading modules" for more information about the kernel parameter way and have a look at Kernel mode setting#Early KMS start for a guide on how to setup the modules for the initramfs.
The Killer 1535 Wirless Adapter is functional and the ath10k firmware is included in recent linux kernel versions. The connection speed reported by iw is limited to 1-6Mbits/s. However this is just the output being wrong. The real connection speed is not limited to this value.
Some users are experiencing issues, where the connection is dropped under heavy load but reconnects within a brief moment. This might not be noticed during browsing at all but becomes apparent in online games. There is a firmware update proposed by DELL to fix the issue, but it might not fix all the issues. In at least one case the new firmware did not fix the connection loss / low connection speed problem. Signs of this problem seems to be two kinds of messages in dmesg:
pcieport 0000:00:1c.4: AER: Corrected error received: id=00e4 pcieport 0000:00:1c.4: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, id=00e4(Transmitter ID) pcieport 0000:00:1c.4: device [8086:9d14] error status/mask=00001000/00002000 pcieport 0000:00:1c.4: [12] Replay Timer Timeout
And also:
CPU: 3 PID: 1410 Comm: irq/133-ath10k_ Not tainted Hardware name: Dell Inc. XPS 13 9360/0839Y6, BIOS 2.1.0 08/02/2017 Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack+0x63/0x82 __warn+0xcb/0xf0 warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20 net_rx_action+0x274/0x3a0 ? irq_finalize_oneshot.part.35+0xe0/0xe0
As of February 2018, Dell support suggests to update the firmware of the network adapter in the following way:
- Confirm that you have QCA6174 checking the output of
sudo lspci
- Download the latest firmware and extract the contents from git
- Substitute the
QCA6174folder in
/lib/firmware/ath10k/with the one downloaded
- Inside the new folder, rename
- Reboot and test the new Killer Wi-Fi firmware
Update: Internet connection dropped even with the firmware from the above fix. Using the newer firmware
firmware-6.bin_WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00102-QCARMSWP-1 by downloading that file from https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/blob/master/QCA6174/hw3.0/4.4.1.c1/firmware-6.bin_RM.4.4.1.c1-00042-QCARMSWP-1, copying it to
/usr/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ and renaming it to
firmware-6.bin fixes this.
Reboot and verify that this newer firmware is used by verifying that
dmesg | grep ath outputs:
ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware ver RM.4.4.1.c1-00042-QCARMSWP-1 api 6 features wowlan,ignore-otp crc32 40fb7bdd
After following the instructions given at Bluetooth tethering of internet connections via phone works immediately.
Thunderbolt 3 / USB 3.1
The USB-C port supports Thunderbolt 3, Displayport-over-USB-C and USB power delivery as well as USB 3.1.
Ethernet repeatedly disconnects/reconnects with Dell USB-C adapter (DA200)
Use of a power management package (such as TLP) may cause the ethernet adapter to repeatedly disconnect and reconnect. If this happens, disable/blacklist USB autosuspend for the ethernet adapter. (On my laptop, this is the device Bus 004 Device 007: ID 0bda:8153 Realtek Semiconductor Corp in the output of lsusb.)
Also disabling or reducing power of wifi may help: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-internet-wireless/f/3324/t/19995423
USB-C Compatibility Chart
Thunderbolt Firmware updates
The thunderbolt controller in the laptop has an embedded firmware. The laptop ships with firmware version NVM 18, and the most recent available version from Dell's website is NVM 26. If encountering compatibility problems with Thunderbolt accessories (such as the DA-200), the firmware may need to be updated. If you have fwupd (see: #Firmware Updates) set up then you should receive this update automatically. Otherwise, you can install it manually as follows.
Dell maintained a github repository with the firmware, but abandoned it now that the firmware is on LVFS. The current version is available as
0x075B_secure.bin (or 0x082A for newer model, see instructions below) inside the Windows package. This can be extracted with p7zip.
Here is a short list of steps to update the Thunderbolt-Firmware on linux 4.13+ (use at your own risk):
- Force enable the thunderbolt controller (or plug in a device to enable it)
# echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/wmi/devices/86CCFD48-205E-4A77-9C48-2021CBEDE341/force_power
- Check your model ID. If it's 0x082A, use the 0x082A firmware instead of the 0x075B one.
# cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/device
- Flash the 9360 firmware from the thunderbolt-nvm-linux repository to a non active NVME memory spot
# dd if=payloads/0x075B.bin of=/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_non_active0/nvmem
- Trigger the update process
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_authenticate
- At this point, your screen should flickr a couple of time. Verify that the update is done by checking that authenticate returns 0
# cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_authenticate
- Verify the new nvme version (it should return 26.1)
# cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_version
- Put the controller back in normal mode
# echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/bus/wmi/devices/86CCFD48-205E-4A77-9C48-2021CBEDE341/force_power
SATA controller
When the SATA-controller is set to
RAID On in Bios, the SSD is not recognized. Set to
AHCI before attempting to install Arch.
The touchpad has no explicit buttons. The buttons are built into the pads surface. There is a small line printed on the pad separating left from right click button. The pad has a middle button built in! (works with libinput without any configuration): To issue a middle click, simply press on the middle area right between the virtual left and click buttons - so on the small printed separator line.
Remove psmouse errors from dmesg
dmesg | grep -i psmouse returns an error, but your touchpad still works, then it might be a good idea to disable
psmouse. First create a config file:
# nano /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf blacklist psmouse
Then add this file to
... FILES=(/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf) ...
Rebuild your initial ramdisk image (see Mkinitcpio#Image creation and activation).
The touchscreen works without additional configuration. The bug resulting in a disabled touchscreen after resume was fixed with kernel 4.8.5.
Refer to libinput#Gestures for information about the current development state and available methods.
Scrolling in Firefox
See Firefox/Tweaks#Pixel-perfect trackpad scrolling. This enables both touchscreen scrolling and high-res trackpad scrolling.
Keyboard Backlight
By default, the keyboard backlight turns off after 10 seconds of inactivity. Some users might find this too short and annoying. The delay can be increased (or decreased) by editing this file:
You can also change the brightness (0-2) by editing the following file. This is identical to pressing F10 on your keyboard:
Hidden Keyboard Keys
There are additional Fn+<Key> (sequences) that are not marked at all on the keyboard but underlying hardware generates them anyway. Here they are (if you find more add them to the table below):
|Resulting key (sequence)
|Fn+A / D / E / F / G / T / Q / W
Unobtrusive mode
If enabled in BIOS, pressing Fn+F7 will disable sound, keyboard and screen backlight, the charging LED and the LED on the power button. Unfortunately there seems to be no way to disable just the LEDs- some users recommend black electrical tape. The output of `smbios-token-ctl -d` only list changes related to screen, keyboard and sound when unobtrusive mode is active.
Firmware Updates
Dell provides firmware updates via fwupd. See Flashing BIOS from Linux#fwupd. Please note if you have used a bind mount partition for /boot, you will not be able to use the fwupd utility; Instead format a USB as FAT32 and put the bios update .exe on. Reboot into the one-time-boot menu and update the BIOS flash through there.
Alternatively, the BIOS update can be downloaded from the Dell website, and placed in a location accessible to the firmware. This could be the '/boot' folder, or a FAT32 formatted USB stick. Then restart your laptop and hit F12 while starting. In the boot menu choose firmware update and select the new file!
EFISTUB does not boot
The BIOS does not pass any boot parameters to the kernel. Use a UEFI boot loader instead.
Not waking from suspend
Update the BIOS to 1.0.7 to patch this issue.
Power Drain after waking from standby
Some users recognised ~2W more power consumption after waking up from standby. Go to the UEFI Firmware Settings (tap the F2 key when the Dell logo appears) and uncheck the 'Enable Thunderbolt Boot Support'. You may use powertop or powerstat-gitAUR to reproduce and check this behaviour yourself.
Popping sound on headphones/external speakers
Power saving being enabled on the audio chip will cause the hissing and popping to appear.
Have a look at ALSA troubleshooting#Pops when starting and stopping playback and ALSA troubleshooting#Popping sound after resuming from suspension.
If you are using tlp, it will activate power saving by default when on battery. Edit
/etc/default/tlp and disable it.
Crackling sound with screen changes
Some users experienced a weird crackling, white noise sound when the display is changing its contents after waking the computer from S3 sleep..
This issue should be patched as of the 4.14.15 kernel.
If you're still encountering this issue, try manually applying this patch[1]. Adding the kernel parameter
i915 enable_guc=1 as described in Intel graphics might also help, however multiple people have reported that this does not fix the problem completely.
Coil Whine
Unfortunately Dell still did not fix this issue and the sound for my model was very loud. The issue seems to be connected to the graphic card. For some users, it is possible to reduce it a lot by activating frame buffer compression "enable_fbc=1" Intel graphics#Module-based Powersaving Options. The coil whine will then start again under heavy graphic load. For the touchscreen model, this may be very often, due to the high resolution screen. In a similar vein, the display can be run at a lower resolution, again reducing the load on the graphics card.
Freezing after waking from suspend
Installing xf86-video-intel-gitAUR is reported to fix this.
Continuous hissing sound with headphones
Open alsamixer and set "Headphone Mic Boost" gain to 10 dB (See discussion on reddit). Note that this does reduce the volume slightly.
You may also run the equivalent command:
$ amixer -c PCH cset 'name=Headphone Mic Boost Volume' 1
PulseAudio will rewrite these ALSA settings. So if you use PulseAudio you should change its config to make them permanent:
[Element Headphone Mic Boost] required-any = any switch = select # Replace "volume = merge" by: volume = 1 override-map.1 = all override-map.2 = all-left,all-right
[Element Headphone Mic Boost] switch = off # Replace "volume = off" by: volume = 1
Fingerprint sensor
Dell officially does not support fingerprint reader functionality [2], however an effort on reverse engineering the protocol of Validity 138a:0090, 138a:0094, 138a:0097 fingerprint readers can be found at github [3].

Alright, I will try weighing form now on but...most of my stuff has only given me measurements. Should I just then get a scale and go off of a cup is 8 oz so if I need 3/4 a cup weight to 6 oz? Also heat may have been an issue, I came home one day to our air conditioning being off and the whole house being 81 degrees.
For how you described the lack of head retention, yes perfectly. It appears lasts for like 30 seconds and is gone. As for the secondary fermentation, everyone has told me that its super important to do. Should I really not bother with it? If so, what styles of beer should I secondary ferment with as opposed to which ones I shouldn't? As for the temperature, my beer got warm during the second week.
Well I am brewing stout again, so do you recommend that I just ditch the secondary this time? Also the temp I pitched at was 64 degrees (62 for my current batch).

I thought it would be fun to make a sugar cookie version of this fatherly symbol~on a stick of course! This way dad can "wear" a tie without any discomfort and then enjoy munching on it afterward:)
So, is your dad more brains than brawn, or is it a TIE? I couldn't resist:)
FYI: Necktie cookie was made using a cutter purchased from Copper Gifts and my favorite sugar cookie/ royal icing recipe. Insert stick into cookie before baking. I used orange and sky blue Wilton gel for the icing colors.

Healthy Skin and Coat on the Outside Healthy Dog on the Inside
As dog lovers and experienced dog owners ourselves, we know that the condition of a dog's skin and coat is frequently a reflection of overall health. Poor skin health can sometimes be traced to dietary insufficiencies or imbalances. Problems with the skin and coat are never just cosmetic. Symptoms such as hair loss, thinning coat, dullness, dry flaky skin, excessive scratching, thickened skin, infections, and odors can often be traced back to either a shortage or an excess of a specific nutrient. In fact, there is no more visible indicator of problems with your dog's overall health than problems with the skin and coat. The right nutrients in the right proportions are indispensable to keeping your dog healthy.

The Eagles have a problem at safety and his name is Jaiquawn Jarrett.
The team's second-round pick out of Temple a year ago, Jarrett simply doesn't look like an NFL player, let alone one who can step up and start if necessary. I drew up a frame-by-frame analysis of the Steelers fourth-and-one conversion, in which Jarrett had a starring role, but unfortunately it was lost into the interwebs.
We'll have to move on under the assumption that you already know exactly how bad he's been.
With Jarrett looking like a liability in every facet of the game, keeping him on the 53-man roster -- once a forgone conclusion -- becomes close to impossible. Unless you're still invested in the sunk cost of the second-round pick (get over it) or you expect him to improve quickly (don't count on it), any roster spot he takes up is a waste.
The Eagles really only need a maximum of four safeties. Nate Allen and Kurt Coleman are your default starters. I'm not excited about either player and in fact have concerns about their abilities, but after watching Jarrett be the sole cause of destruction last week, I'm willing to accept some level of risk on that front. There's certainly some upside where those two are involved.
After the starters, you need one solid backup to dress on gamedays. This player needs to be able to step up in case of injury or simply to replace an underperforming starter (see above). We're not talking spectacular here, or even average -- just someone who isn't going to embarrass himself. That counts out Jarrett and leaves only one real option: free-agent find O.J. Atogwe.
That's three safeties. Doesn't the team normally keep four, you say? Couldn't Jarrett be stashed there until we're sure he's hopeless? Yes, that's possible. However, it prevents two more attractive roster options. The first is keeping a fourth safety who can be the special teams maven for Bobby April. Last year that was Colt Anderson, and reports say he's close to returning from injury. Even if the team decides to place Anderson on PUP for six weeks, they have a similar player in Tom Nelson. There's some evidence to suggest that April has sway over the final roster spots. It seems likely he'll use that influence to keep a player like Nelson or Anderson.
The second option is that (at least until Anderson returns from injury) the Eagles go with only three safeties and use the extra roster spot to load up on one of their more talent-laden positions. After all, why stretch to accomodate a poor backup at safety when you would rather keep a fifth defensive tackle or sixth cornerback. Depending on the progress of their rehabbing special teams ace, that's the road I see the Eagles taking right now.
In any scenario, you can say goodbye to Jarrett.

Yogyakarta (Indonesia)
Yogyakarta, an Indonesian city of 398,000 in 1987, 6,000,000 in 2003, is the capital of a special region in south Central Java designated as a sultanate of Yogyakarta. This special city recalls the days in the precolonial era when Java was under the rule of a succession of independent kingdoms. As one of the two key centers of Javanese culture, Yogyakarta still exhibits much of the heritage of those ancient kingdoms. That cultural heritage contributes greatly to the creativity of the present-day cultural and artistic world of Yogyakarta, as does the memory of its role as capital of Indonesia during the revolution.
The ecumenical Duta Wacana Theological Seminary, also a university, is located in Yogyakarta. The seminary has enjoyed the strong involvement of both of the Mennonite conferences of Indonesia at the student, faculty and trustee level. A congregation of the Persatuan Gereja-Gereja Kristen Muria Indonesia (the Muria Christian Church of Indonesia) has also been established in Yogyakarta.

Round two goes to the San Juan Bronco boys basketball team after a hard-fought 49-40 victory over the Monticello Buckaroos on January 4 in Blanding.
San Juan rode the wave of the home court to the rebound win after Monticello took the opener in December in Monticello.
The game boiled down to fundamentals, with the Broncos playing much more aggressively offensively, earning 20 shots at the foul line (making 12) while the Bucks managed 10 foul shots (making 7).
The Bucks also turned the ball over 16 times, with 10 for the Broncos. In a closely contested game, the final margin was the biggest lead of the game for either team.
Barkley Christensen scored on a backdoor cut just seconds into the game, setting the tone for the Bronco offense. Collin Hatch countered with a three, giving the Bucks their only lead through the third quarter.
It was punch, counter punch, as the Broncos maintaining a two to six point lead until the Bucks tied the game, 34-34, to close the third quarter.
Monticello actually took the lead early in the fourth when Jake Duncan scored to give the Bucks a 36-34 advantage. The lead was short-lived however, when Christensen canned a three to give the lead back to the Broncos.
Monticello managed only four points the rest of the game and the Broncos slowly pulled away. After two Logan Meyer steals (he had five on the night) and a Christensen old-fashioned three point play, the Broncos had a 44-40 lead with 2:20 to play and milked the clock to the end.
Christensen was the game high scorer with 17, including six of seven from the free throw line. Meyer contributed 14 points and six rebounds to go along with his five steals.
Austin Maloy led the Bucks in scoring with 11 points and eight rebounds. Duncan tossed in 10 points.
Region play begins this week for the Bronco boys and girls. The Buckaroo boys and girls have one region win under their belts with Saturday wins at Navajo Mountain.
The Bronco girls enter region with a 5-4 record and begin play against the top-ranked 2A team, Richfield, in Richfield.
Richfield is San Juan's toughest region opponent. They boast 2A's leading scorer in Megan Bean (also the 2A volleyball MVP) as well as the leader in 2A assists and steals, point guard Sloane Roundy. The Wildcats are 11-2 thus far and boast a win over 5A Skyline and six wins over 3A schools.
The Lady Broncos counter with three players averaging in double figures, Sam Giddings (13.4 ppg), Brooke Lyman (12.7), and Tatianna SueSue (12.1).
Giddings leads 2A in rebounding with 9.3 per game. SueSue (7.9) is fourth and Lyman (5.7) seventh in rebounding, giving the Lady Broncos a strong inside game. Lyman is fifth in assists (1.9) and sixth in steals (1.7).
San Juan boys open play in region at Richfield on Friday and then play at South Sevier on Saturday.
South Sevier is ranked second in 2A behind Wasatch Academy and are on a basketball run for the ages, having lost only three games the last three years (a loss to SJ their only loss in 2011) while winning 72 times.
In the past seven years, the Rams have three state titles, one second and three thirds. Even though the Rams have the state's leading scorer in Race Parsons (26.1 ppg), they have lost three times already, but appear ready to challenge again in 2A.
San Juan counters with Christensen and Meyer. The senior guards tie for third in 2A scoring. Christensen is eighth in three pointers, while Meyer is a leader in rebounding (seventh), assists (sixth) and steals (fourth).
Monticello, after their region-opening win at Navajo Mountain, is poised to lead Region 19.
The 8-2 Pinnacle Canyon Academy Panthers are led by the all-around play of 5-11 Jake Hardy, who is sixth in 1A in scoring, 1st in steals, 2nd in assists, and 9th in rebounding.
They also boast four players averaging double figures. Dalton Rudman leads 1A in three point shooting, averaging 4.2 per game. They average 75 points per game as a team, tops in entire state.
The 6-2 Buckaroos are led thus far by the trio of Jake Duncan, Gunnar Hollingsworth, and Austin Maloy, all of whom are averaging 12 points a game. The Bucks, ranked #4 in 1A, play nine or ten guys every game and have a balanced attack.
Even though the 4-5 Lady Bucks have had a hard time finding the bucket this year, averaging only 29 points per game, they get balanced scoring and have been tough defensively.
They've lost three games by a total of 11 points, so they are always in games because of their defense.
Sophomore Zoe Chadwick leads the Bucks in scoring at 7.8 ppg. Senior Brittany Keith and sophomore Shania DeAnda average five points a game.
Sophomore Mary Beh averages 3.4 ppg and Aapree Sharon, 3.6. Senior Kaitlyn Clark has the only trey for the Lady Bucks this season.
Region 19 is headlined by the highest scoring girls team in the state (66 ppg), the 6-3 Monument Valley Cougars and their number one scorer in 1A, Heidi Nelson (21.9 ppg). Nelson also leads 1A in treys, averaging 2.6 per game.
Both Buckaroo teams play at Monument Valley on January 11.

The Forex world is constantly evolving and during its weekly trading hours there is a wealth of news a trader must keep on top of if they want to make the most money possible. Indeed, because the market can be affected by a number of dynamics, it is essential they know exactly what's happening at all times in order to avoid any unprofitable deals.
For example, let's assume the US Dollar is trading well against the Great British Pound during the first half of the week. This would be a good time to invest some money and reap the benefits of a positive market condition. However, by Wednesday a series of negative news stories emerge from the UK and affect the country's economic performance. These dynamics then adversely affects how well the two currencies are trading. At this point it's important to know what's just happened because it will influence whether or not someone should cease trading this currency pair for a while or continue.
Knowing the value of each currency based on various internal and external factors is crucial and the reason why FXBrokerSearch.com's Forex news centre is a vital resource. Drawing on a number of resources, our information section provides the latest information and data from which users can refine their trading activity.
Beyond shifts in the currency market itself, FXBrokerSearch.com's new section has been designed to give traders an insight into the best offers and promotions. By monitoring each of our 200+ Forex brokers we're able to quickly tell users about the latest updates and bonuses.

Indeed, thanks to our dedicated team of analysts and experts, users can find out the latest market developments as well as the best deals in the industry. Putting all this together should help everyone gain a better understanding of the market, which in turn should give them the ability to make even more money.

It's nearly impossible to stay on top of all the important developments in the mobile industry that are impacting your company, your bottom line, and even your career.
In the exploding world of mobile technology, not a day goes by without another development that could change everything you currently know on the topic.
Getting the right idea from the right research at the right time can give you the edge over your competitors and allow you to adjust your strategies quickly.
If you want to succeed at ANY aspect of the mobile experience, you've simply got to know what's happening all around you. But it's easily a full-time job just to follow the news...and an even bigger job to try to make sense of it.
So don't. Let us do it for you.
No one else attends the conferences, digs into technical journals, analyzes the reports, and brings it all to you in a simple, easy-to-understand format like our Apps and Platforms Briefing, the daily newsletter from Business Insider Intelligence.
With our Apps and Platforms Briefing, you'll know the newest technologies, the hottest new apps, the breaking deals, the important trends and the shifting landscape.
More importantly, you'll know what to do with this knowledge.
Too many other tech information sources just take press releases and news articles and slap a different headline on them.
Our Apps and Platforms Briefing gives you the context around critical developments in mobile apps and platforms technology so that you can run your business more efficiently, more profitably and more successfully.
And we have no shortage of insights to share, because...
It doesn't matter if your industry is telecommunications, apps, advertising, e-commerce, finance, entertainment, or any combination or permutation — our Apps and Platforms Briefing helps you stay ahead of the curve and get ahead of the competition.
The mobile marketplace is revolutionizing industries and changing the face of our world.
To take just one example, PayPal is focused like a laser on mobile commerce because it is the fastest-growing commerce channel. Mobile commerce gross sales volume (GSV) rose 48% YoY in Q2 2014 — three times faster than the growth in desktop-based e-commerce. Although mobile commerce is still a small share of e-commerce volume —13% in Q4 2014 according to our estimates —it's poised to dominate commerce in the long run.
It's the same all over — mobile is the cutting edge and where you need the most help in staying on top of all the fast-moving developments.
Our Apps and Platforms Briefing gives you the news and insights you need in clear, no-BS format. If we ever use industry jargon, it's because it's necessary.
Our Apps and Platforms Briefing has no agenda beyond helping you understand the digital world better. We don't do sponsored research or "pay to play" deals like some of our competitors. We're not trying to sell you a product, pitch you a stock or make you a true believer of any worldview.
What we are trying to do is simple:
When you read our Apps and Platforms Briefing, you know the most important news and events that happened in the world of apps and platforms in the last 24 hours. Not just news about deals, but data-driven insights that provide context and explain why things are happening now... and what's going to happen next.
But no matter how great we tell you our Apps and Platforms Briefing is, the only way for you to see for yourself how valuable it can be is to try it.
That's why we'd like to offer you...
We know that there's a lot of hype in the world of emerging technology, and you may be disposed to be wary of buying something that disappoints you, so we back up our promise about the benefits of our Apps and Platforms Briefing with our satisfaction guarantee.
Just try our Apps and Platforms Briefing for 14 days to see if it is as good as we say it is.
At any time during those 14 days, you can get 100% of your subscription fee back if you don't find yourself immediately more informed and better prepared.
Anytime. For any reason. Or even no reason at all.
Keep everything you've received — all the issues, all the intelligence — with our thanks for giving our Apps and Platforms Briefing a try.
And if that's not enough...
Business Insider Intelligence examines where the wireless industry stands as a result of the price war and uptick in data demand from consumers. We also look at how technological advancements and the adoption of new product lines could incentivize the next wave of revenue growth for telecoms. Finally, we explore potential barriers to carriers' growth, and examine which of the Big Four carriers are poised to lead the pack.
Business Insider Intelligence explores the pros and cons of how the three biggest players in the Western mobile market are working to navigate the changing app landscape and how their respective initiatives best position them to come out on top. We will also lay out barriers standing in the way of adoption of the new technology. And we demonstrate the necessity for businesses to take heed of the evolving app market, and show where the best opportunity lies.
Apps & plats isn't slowing down — it's speeding up.
P.S. Remember, you risk nothing by giving our Apps and Platforms Briefing a risk-free try. You receive a full refund if you cancel in the first 14 days. With nothing to lose and so much to gain, sign up today!

Any suggestions for good value monk strap shoes? I am looking for a brown pair of monk straps for work. Thanks everyone.
Any suggestions for good value monk strap shoes? I am looking for a brown pair of monk straps for work. Thanks everyone.
I believe that this is a subjective question. Personally, i want a pair of the Cobbler Union double monks in museum congac, but not sure what your price range is. They are absolutely gorgeous in person and with a coat of polish the color pattern becomes slightly more muted which i love. Im wearing a pair of their museum congac boots right now (Renoir). I think they are the best value in shoes i have ever experienced but again i dont know what your price range really is. I currently own 4 pairs and would own many more if my wallet allowed LOL! I have the monks and a pair of suede wholecuts on my radar right now.
Assuming looking for the right mix of longevity to price. My DSW Ashton Gray double monks are about 4 years old (maybe even older) see the rotation usually weekly and are holding up well. I dont walk to work in them or anything but not bad for under 100. I think with coupons they were 79. Thought Id try out the style then buy nicer ones. Well theyve held up well.
@neminat those are gorgeous but they sadly won't work with my non-D width it seems. semper sadface.
I got a pair of Meermin that I love. They took a little longer than my AE's to break in, but they are wonderful now. Goodyear Welted at under $200. Shipping is $15, unless you're in NY.
I suggest you consider checking out Herring Shoes. They have a large selection starting at about $140 and going up to over $600--several different brands. Many are Goodyear welted--even the ones for $140 (but they are made in India with corrected/polished leather).
I love my Herring Philip II monk shoes--I got them on sale for about $330. You can get a nice pair of Loake double monk straps in calf leather for about $250 (unless you're in the US).
Also, I am a fan of my Jack Erwin Chelsea boots and you might like their monk strap model at $225:
And my final suggestion for now is take a look at Nordstrom Rack online--they have quite a selection in the $100-$200 range by Mezlan, Magnanni, Gordon Rush, and Cole Hahn--okay, you're not getting the best shoes--but they look pretty sharp, are mostly leather, and the price is not too high.

Looking lovely Imogen!ReplyDelete
That jumper of yours is absolutely adorable. The fluffiness and soft peachy color make it seem so innocent and sweet. I think it looks really cool paired with your new high-waisted jeans.
Speaking of those jeans, the three button closure is really cool. It's a nice little differentiation from the typical one-button jeans that everyone wears.
Like Rosie, I think your hair looks absolutely gorgeous!
I remember seeing a tutorial you posted a long time ago on doing your hair like that...I'll have to find it and test the hairdo out on my own hair one of these days :)
I hope you're having a lovely weekend! <3

Creative Writing6 02 2012
Some students in Ms. Olen's class were given a creative challenge in writing. They had to choose a picture from Chris Van Allsburg's Mysteries of Harris Burdick.
Robynn and Damian worked together on creating a story. They chose the picture titled The Seven Chairs
You can read what Robynn and Damian have written so far below…
The Beginning of the End
By: Robynn & Damian
Chapter 1, Then it happened!
"Are they coming.", Derek said. "We need to get to the roof.". 'NO!"said Ashley."what sis!", said Derek.Then Derek looked back. He saw his sister running.They finally got to the roof and saw their friend Alex. He had a huge camping bag, then he pointed at the city.They heard people screaming."We better get going", said Derek.
"AAHH", said Ashley as she fell to the floor with excruciating pain.There were muscular men in suits,the suits looked the ones bee keepers use.But still it scared us.Oh sorry I didn't say my name,my names Derek Ursula.So any way they caught up with us.Then Alex fell, I was still up and running then I got to the end of the roof. I thought either end life now or suffer for the rest of my life. Then I turned around and surrendered.
Chapter 2 The Facility
When Derek first saw them he was in shock and then the men took his hands so he couldn't get away. Then Ashley pointed. Derek and both the men looked then Ashley ran towards them and pulled Derek away from the two men. Then Derek had a vision. There was a lady in mid-air and she was sitting in a chair just floating there.
To be continued…
Robynn and Damian have also created a quiz to see if you were comprehending what you read. Take the following test!
Did you enjoy Robynn and Damian's story?
How could they improve as writers?
Do you have any suggestions for how they might continue their story?
Categories : Damian, Robynn

- The AstroSolar filter material is mounted onto a plastic ring where the plastic ring itself works as stabilizing element for the filter cell. This still plastic ring is mounted onto the aluminum front frame. The thermal expansion coefficient of the plastic and the film are similar.
- Clear white IR-rejecting front ring with reinforcing raised edges along the outer and inner circumference, designed to protect the solar filter material from contact with any sharp metal edge.
- Includes 3 injection molded centering-bolts with threaded brass inserts to center the filter-cell in front of the tube opening (13mm diameter; 24mm length). This fastening system keeps the filter snugly in place and centers the filter. Each bolt features injection molded rubber grip-faces, shaped to easily slide onto any telescope tube but hard to come off.
- No tool mounting and adjustment of the centering bolts to fit a wide variety of mechanical tube diameters. Bolts are made to contact the outside of the optical instrument tube for most applications.
- For some optical items (such as refractor and Newtonian reflector telescopes), you may be able to attach the bolts on the inside of the instrument tube. However, this requires a clear depth of about 20mm on the inside for adequate engagement of the centering bolts which many instruments (like binoculars, camera lenses, and SCT/Mak-Cass telescopes) do not have.
- Includes non-rotating sliding fasteners made from aluminum that hold the centering bolts.
- Additional Phillips screws are integrated into the sliding fasteners so that the centering bolts can be firmly fastened with a screw driver if preferred by the user.
- Index scale provided beside each adjustment slot - adjacent to each sliding fastener - for fast and repeatable adjustment of the filter cell onto different telescope tubes.
- Black sliding washers supplied to securely cover the full length of the adjustment slots in the aluminum frame – for blocking sunlight from passing trough the filter cell beside the filter area.
- Three security straps included to secure the position of the filter cell with Velcro-adhesive pads. A safety feature to absolutely ensure a secure fit in front of the telescope under virtually all circumstances.
- Securely packed in a cardboard box with stiff cardboard inlay for safely shipping the filter; Instruction booklet included.
About Baader AstroSolar Film and Solar Filters
The world's finest objective solar filter material - Baader Planetarium's AstroSolar Safety Film - is now available in a complete range of high-quality mounted Baader Solar Filters. Their innovative design and construction enables each filter to fit a wide range of instruments - from high end telescopes, to spotting scopes, camera lenses, and even special versions to fit binoculars. Each filter is precisely mounted at Baader onto special cells, guaranteeing a stress-free mounting that preserves the full optical quality of the AstroSolar film.
Baader Solar Filters provide a professional and secure solution to observe and image the Sun using AstroSolar Safety Film. Many ready-made filters stretch the filter material like a drumhead in order to make it look like a piece of glass. However, this absolutely destroys the image quality, rendering the film useless for high magnification work. AstroSolar is mounted entirely stress free onto Baader's filters in order to perform like a high precision plane-optical window. Even though it may seem counterintuitive, Baader AstroSolar film must show slight ripples! When the film is put under stress by an improper cell mount, its optical quality is degraded and it performs just like a common coated glass-filter made of untreated float glass.
In its September 2000 issue, Sky & Telescope magazine proclaimed Baader Planetarium's AstroSolar Safety Film to be "the new standard in solar filters." AstroSolar Safety Film delivers white light views of the Sun that are unmatched by any other objective solar filter or material. The views through AstroSolar display fine solar details, including fine penumbral detail, solar granulation, and lighter colored faculae. The disk is set against a dark background, free of the haze and scatter that is common in typical 'mylar' films or inexpensive glass filters. The performance of Astro Solar Filter Film is even more remarkable when considering its very low cost.
What is even more important - with AstroSolar Film the Sun appears in its real color - neutral white (with only a slight bluish tinge). Other films and glass filters produce a blurry bluish or reddish/orange/yellow Solar image, thereby cutting part of the spectrum. Especially with an orange sun, it is very hard to see faculae regions which are visible predominantly in the blue portion of the spectrum.
Due to its neutral color balance, AstroSolar Film enables the use of various color (or interference) filters which allows the observer to concentrate on certain spectral passbands for investigations of different layers within the solar "atmosphere". It is also possible to further improve the stability and sharpness of the solar image through the use of the Baader Solar Continuum Filter (sold separately). Views of granulation and faculae are particularly enhanced through the use of this continuum filter, in combination with AstroSolar film.
Please note that you cannot see solar prominences with white light solar filters such as this - that requires the use of sophisticated and significantly more expensive narrowband solar filters or telescopes. Solar filters made with AstroSolar Film with a neutral density (ND) of 5.0 can be used for visual and photographic, imaging and video applications.
Note: Occasionally, the product you receive might have a slightly different cosmetic appearance or labeling than what is shown. This can often change from batch to batch according to the whims of the manufacturer. However, you will always receive a brand new, original product as described above.

When it comes to homeschooling, expensive is a relative term. While the average cost is roughly $500 a year per child, this goes down a bit in families with more children, since resources can be shared, membership costs are not multiplied, etc. If your children have been in private school for $4,000–10,000 a year per child, you're probably planning a vacation with your homeschooling savings and are only reading this article to kill some time! But if they've been in a conventional school setting or are just beginning school, it's prudent of you to count the cost, to be prepared. You'll want to invest in your core curriculum materials first, then add other items as your budget allows. (See sidebar for more ideas.)
It is possible to homeschool with just a Bible and a library card, but most of us will add a bit. I was able to homeschool seven children at a time for less than $100 in a year, once I had accumulated a few non-consumable resources. (Our family was without a full-time income for four years during that time, with eight children at home.)
In the next few newsletters, we'll highlight some activities for the basic subject areas on a shoestring budget. Since election season is coming up, let's begin with social studies!
How to Save on Textbooks and Other Curricular Materials
Use Multi-Level Curriculum
Use grade-specific materials for each child for skills subjects such as math and language arts, then use multi-level materials for content-area subjects such as science, social studies, character/Bible, art, health, etc, working with all of your children together, to economize on time and money! Here are a few suggestions for materials that are designed for or easily adapted for multi-level use:
And many others.
Everyday Activities
The most effective learning often takes place in the context of everyday living or family activities, and many are free or very inexpensive:

Focus on Getting the Deal Done
Fund: Draper Fisher Jurvetson
Posted by generalist on 2008-06-14
We have recently received a term sheet from DFJ. The term sheet was extremely clean, and focused on preparinf the company for success. No BS, no irrational preference, cleaned the previous investors' awful terms and pratically restructured the company in a way that made everyone focused on a large success.
During the negotiations they were very open, and agreed to many requests as long as they did not create a conflict of interest on the big items.
I look forward to get a closing. I will post another comment upon closing to describe that experience.

How to Grill the Perfect Corn
There is much confusion and debate on the subject of grilling corn. Some say you have to parboil the shucked cobs prior to throwing it on the grill. Others preach that it is critical to soak before grilling. Another popular method is wrapping corn in aluminum foil. These are only a few examples of the best ways to enjoy this summer delight.
So which method is the best? Well, that's going to come down to personal preference. All of these techniques have their own advantages and disadvantages, but if you're like me and always looking for the least intimidating way to cook, then you will love my simple approach to grilling corn.
The first thing you should always do is make sure to buy the freshest local corn you can find (and yes, this makes a difference in flavor). Check out your local farmers markets to see what nearby farms are growing. After you have acquired the best-looking corn in town, there is minimal prep work to be done.
All you have to do to get the corn ready is remove the silk, but keep the husk intact. To do this, just peel back the corn husk, remove as much silk as possible - whatever is left behind will most likely burn off anyway - and then fold the husk back in place so it covers the corn again.
When your grill is preheated to medium, place the prepped ears directly on the grill and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally. The beauty in this process is that the corn actually steams and roasts in its own husk, yielding an extra corny taste. The husk also acts as a natural shield, protecting the kernals from burning, achieving just the right amount of char.
Once the kernels seem tender when pierced with a paring knife, remove it from the grill. And just as you should with a nice piece of meat, let the corn rest for about 5 minutes, allowing the residual heat to gently finish cooking it.
When you're ready to serve, simply pull back the husk to use as a handle, slather the corn with butter, add a light sprinkle of salt, and enjoy. You will be pleasantly surprised how juicy and smoky this stress-free corn turns out. Keep this in mind next time you are looking for some grilled sides perfect for steak.

The Situation of Birthers' Belief
Posted by The Situationist Staff on August 11, 2009
Scientific American has an interesting, "60-Second Podcast" by Steve Mirsky about research by Situationist Contributor Mahzarin Banaji and San Diego State's Thierry Devos finding that white Americans inherently regard white Europeans as somehow more "American" than Asian- or African-Americans. Here are some excerpts from the podcast, which you can link to here.
* * *
The so-called birthers can't accept that President Obama is really a natural-born American citizen. Part of what's behind this seemingly irrational belief may lie in what's called implicit social cognition—the deep-rooted assumptions we all carry around, and may act on without realizing it.
Harvard's Mahzarin Banaji studies such implicit cognition. Last fall she talked to journalists at the annual conference of the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing about research into bias against Asian-Americans. "So we thought, what if we picked Asians who are very well known to be American. What about Connie Chung? Are they going to be seen as less American than, let's say, Hugh Grant? And so we thought this was a bizarre study to do but we did it anyway."
Amazingly, white Americans did see a white European like Hugh Grant as being somehow more American than the Asian-American Connie Chung. And similar research in 2008 found that whites thought of ex-British Prime Minister Tony Blair as somehow more American than Obama. So the mental framework to believe that Obama is foreign probably was, to use a health care term, a preexisting condition.
* * *
To read a closely related Situationist post, see "The Situation of Being '(un)American'."
For some posts examining the the role of implicit associations in elections, see "Patricia Devine on Resisting Implicit Associations," "The Interior Situation of Undecided Voters," "On Being a Mindful Voter," "Lopez-Torres, Justice Scalia, and the Situation of Elections," "Your Brain on Politics," "Implicit Associations in the 2008 Presidential Election," "The Situation of Political Animals," "Political Psychology in 2008," "Perceptions of Racial Divide,The Psychology of Barack Obama as the Antichrist," and "The Interior Situation of Undecided Voters."

You like cars, I like cars! Unlike most folks, I've been lucky enough to review them for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel since 1989. Each Saturday my column is teased in the paper's main section and then appears at www.jsonline.com. That's where you'll find my most current review. Here I post my reviews before they were edited for the newspaper website, which means these sometimes are longer than those you'll see on jsonline. And … because I can, I also include several additional photos with each review here to help shoppers get a better idea of what to expect inside and out.
How do I review cars? I get one weekly from two delivery services that handle all the brands and usually drive a car for a full week. I aim to deliver honest reviews that reflect what the average driver, or buyer, would see and expect in a vehicle. I drive the cars like you would, on city streets, to and from work, the grocery store, etc. I put a high value on ease of use, especially the car's interior, quality and on styling for the exterior. Plus I have my quirks. I'm a shorter driver at 5-5, and as one of my buddies points out, I LOVE sun visors that slide or have extenders. Read on! … Oh, and if you have a new car question, send it to me at facebook/savageonwheels. I'll try to answer it ASAP, but realize I DO have a life! Thanks for reading me here or at jsonline.

GENEVA — During World Breastfeeding Week, celebrated from 1 to 7 August in more than 170 countries, WHO reiterates its call on health facilities and health workers to implement ten steps to help mothers breastfeed successfully and improve their babies' health and chances of survival.
Breast milk is the ideal food for newborns and infants. It is safe, gives babies the nutrients they need for healthy development and contains antibodies that help protect infants from common childhood illnesses. While exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life is on the rise in many countries, further improvement of breastfeeding rates is critical to improve the nutrition and the health of infants and children. For a variety of reasons, including the lack of breastfeeding counselling, still too many mothers stop exclusive breastfeeding within a few weeks after delivery.
Breastfeeding can save lives
"It is estimated that around 35% of infants aged 0 to 6 months are exclusively breastfed in the world today," says Dr Elizabeth Mason, Director of WHO's Department of Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health and Development. "But if all babies and young children were breastfed exclusively for their first six months of life and then given nutritious complementary food with continued breastfeeding up to two years of age, the lives of an additional 1.5 million children under five would be saved every year."
Ten steps to successful breastfeeding
The "Ten steps to successful breastfeeding" were developed by WHO and UNICEF to ensure maternity services are providing the right start for every infant and the necessary support for mothers to breastfeed. Today this check-list is used by hospitals in more than 150 countries.
The ten steps for health facilities to take towards ensuring successful breastfeeding are as follows:
- Have a written breastfeeding policy that is routinely communicated to all health care staff.
- Train all health care staff in the skills necessary to implement this policy.
- Inform all pregnant women about the benefits and management of breastfeeding.
- Help mothers initiate breastfeeding within half an hour of birth.
- Show mothers how to breastfeed and how to maintain lactation even if they should be separated from their infants.
- Give newborn infants no food or drink other than breast milk unless medically indicated.
- Practise "rooming in" – allowing mothers and infants to remain together – 24 hours a day.
- Encourage breastfeeding on demand – whenever the baby is hungry.
- Give no artificial teats or pacifiers (also called dummies or soothers) to breastfeeding infants.
- Foster the establishment of breastfeeding support groups and refer mothers to them on discharge from the hospital or clinic.
Risk of malnutrition
Malnutrition is responsible for one-third of the 8.8 million deaths annually among children under five. It can be a direct cause of death but is also the most important single risk factor for disease in young children. Over two thirds of these deaths, which are often associated with inappropriate feeding practices such as bottle-feeding or untimely and inadequate complementary foods, occur during the first months of life.
"Increasing breastfeeding rates is a key component of the plan to improve infant and young child nutrition," says Randa Saadeh, Coordinator of the Nutrition in the Life Course unit at WHO. "A renewed effort to make more hospitals 'baby friendly' has the potential to give millions more babies a healthy start in life."
