Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Our take on the Clarion CCA691 iPod® Cable by Ken Nail Why would I need an iPod® adapter? An iPod adapter allows you to connect your iPod to your car stereo, then access your playlists with your stereo's controls - a great idea for several reasons. One, you can scroll through your song titles on your stereo's larger display, instead of squinting down at your iPod. Two, you can route the adapter cable to your glove compartment or center console, so your iPod stays safely out of sight. Three, the iPod adapter keeps your iPod fully charged, so it's ready to rock when you leave your car. And last of all, some adapters bypass your iPod's internal digital-to-analog converter, using your stereo's superior DAC to turn your files back into music. Clarion's CCA691 cable connects your iPod to their VRX375USB, VRX575USB, and VRX585USB DVD receivers. The cable allows you to listen to your iPod music files while driving and view your iPod video files when you're parked, while keeping your iPod charged. You'll enjoy touchscreen control from your receiver over your iPod's music playback, while the receiver displays the title, genre, and artist information stored on your iPod. Video functions must be accessed from your iPod's controls. Warranty: 1 year. Compatibility Note: Be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this iPod adapter.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This school should do something about the high turnover rate. It says a lot about the environment when good teachers leave.
My son is now in 4th grade and is thriving academically and socially. The workload is heavy and expectations are high. Every teacher he has had, from grade teachers, to music, to Spanish, to art, has been amazing, dedicated, kind and caring. The school is ethnically and socio-economically diverse, and that diversity is celebrated. Mr. Ferguson is a wonderful school leader who makes the children's needs a priority. There is great communication between the administration and the Parent Teachers Organization. The PTO is very active.
My son has an IEP, I am so great full to the Own Charter School they were able to make me understand that my child is not at all different,. He just needed a different way of learning certain things. I am so happy that my son is part of a program that can help where he gets a teacher to come in to the class room as well as he gets pulled out. He is able to understand things that come easy for us and difficult. Ms. Greco and Ms. Lornigan were able to get him the resources he needed and they fought for every little bit. His teachers from Ms. Stephanides, Ms. Sullivan, Ms. Rossello and Ms. Sischler they also are able to apply what they teach in their daily routine to benefit him as well as other students who may struggle. The DOE was good at making sure that he was able to get these services and ready for him for when school started every year. The difference about this Charter School is I believe there is no expense for a child learning. They work hard to make sure that every child needs are met when it comes to learning. Money is spent wisely My child is better because of Ms. Greco, Ms. Larnigan, Ms. Stephanides, Ms. Sullivan, Ms. Rosello, Ms. Sischler. and all teachers.
This school thrives because of wonderful, motivated teachers who go the extra mile and parents who are very involved and engaged in the learning process. The workload is heavier, since the introduction of common core, but this is the case across the board these days.
OWNCS is a great environment for children to play, learn and excel. My daughter has blossomed while attending and I'm excited for many more years at OWNCS.
We have been most impressed with this school. Some data: *Ranked #11 by The Observer for Best Middle School in New York City in 2012; *Ranked a "Notable School" by InsideSchools; *over 3 consecutive years, 90%+ of OWNCS parents reported "high satisfaction" with the school according to DOE surveys; *the majority of students go on to their first choice high school; *the school has implemented a comprehensive plan to assist special needs children; *and over four consecutive years the school has had over a 500 student waitlist. There is strong parent-teacher coordination, and real sense that this a community. The administration has a strong strategic vision that embraces diversity and demanding academics. Sports like tennis, soccer, and basketball are all offered, along with salsa and African drumming. A big league school with high expectations of its staff and students, and a record to match.
MY CHILD WENT TO THIS SCHOOL. TEACHERS SEND THEIR KIDS TO THIS SCHOOL. DEFINITELY FOR SMART KIDS. NOT GOOD IF YOUR KIDS HAVE IEPs. THE SCHOOL HAS THE WORST STAFF BUT GREAT TEACHERS. IT IS A MIRACLE THE PLACE STAYS OPEN. PHONE NEVER ANSWERED. NO CALLS/E,MAILS RETURNED UNLESS IT IS TO THEIR BENEFIT. FUN PLACE TO WORK, KIDS NOT FIRST PRORITY. PARENTS GET IN THEIR WAY. IF YOU WORK A LOT AND HAVE A SMART KID THIS IS A GREAT SCHOOL. WARNING THE BOARD IS THE PRINCIPAL'S BEST FRIENDS. AGAIN GREAT TEACHERS!!!!!
Strong leadership. ELA and Social studies curriculum outstanding. Math program has shown amazing improvement. Science curriculum is nearly non-existent with inefficient teaching.. And administration is beginning to look like nepotism central. A very good school that I still recommend to others, but it needs to expand administration to include a representative sample of the community. In this economy, it seems laughable that the ONLY people hired are relatives or friends of administration. This needs to be addressed by the boar before it affects the good reputation the school has as a diverse community.
One of the best schools in Queens. Strong leadership by the principal, diverse school, a lot of parent involvement. Strong academics , small classes and caring teachers who are determined to have the students succeed.
This school has encouraged my child to be their very best. Teachers and staff are great. Middle School academically excellent.
I have two children at OWN and have been very happy with the atmosphere in the school and the quality of the education. The kids are engaged intellectually, and happy socially. The school has some physical obstacles -- for instance a space shortage, including lack of a gym or playground in the elementary school. However, this is the kind of school that promotes respect for others and a love of learning, but has to make do with using the gym at a local health club (NOT too shabby a solution, if you ask me!) I have concerns about the middle school, but we still have a couple of years, and I understand there have been improvements such that there is more continuity between the elementary and middle school experiences. So far, my family is very pleased with OWN and would recommend it whole-heartedly.
My child has thrived at this school since First Grade and will be graduating this year. It has had growing pains and struggling with the demands the NYC DOE puts on it as well as funding but my child has excelled academically. This school is very academic oriented and encourage my child to be their absolute best. Great teachers (bad ones don't last long) and high standards. The only thing I wish is that the school had an expulsion policy. There are a handful of kids who don't really belong here - when there is a waiting list of eager students to get in.
It has been an amazing experience. The teachers and administrators work so hard to make sure our children get the best education. They take the time out to support all their needs.
As a parent of a middle school child I am not at all pleased the way the school is being run. I find that some of the staff singles out certain students & are quick to issue detentions or punishments without having all of the facts. They are quick to believe certain students while others are not given the benefit of the doubt. I also find that when I as a parent request to have a meeting with a staff member I should be accommodated. Instead there is never a response to my request. The senior trip that is planned for the students is not a fun type of trip - I feel it's more educational. Not even a prom is being offered - while many public schools do have that option. From my experience I wouldn't send my 2nd child to this school.
If we were talking about the elementary school, I would have given 4 stars... great atmosphere, excellent academics, fantastic teachers. Always room for improvement...high teacher turnover!! When your child goes from 5th grade onto the middle school years, as a parent one must look to competing in the wider world of high school and beyond. 7 years ago, there were promises made of a focus on getting our school K-8 under one roof, with a proper gym, lunchroom, music room, science lab etc. So far, our leadership has failed in that regard. Our middleschoolers are still 'doing without' and that is sad. We have a music program with no musical instruments!! The up-side is the small community feel of the school. The teachers work very hard with 'what they have'.
I am a student in the Our World Neighborhood Charter School Middle School and I was new in that school.I started that school in September and I loved it.A lot of the teachers arenice and treat children with respect over there.For anybody who wants to go to that schoolit's a great school ith great education.
I am a student at the middle school in OWN. The teachers are very nice(most of the time), but I'm extremely bored. I get 4s on my standardized tests and 100s on tests in school. I finish all my work long before the bell rings. Another thing: they punish everybody. They take away the whole grades priveleges, even if its only 5 people misbehaving. They say the students are responsible for other students behavior. I do what I'm supposed to do and do my work. I do not enjoy getting yelled at. I dont enjoy having silent lunch. I want to get into another school for 7th grade. I hope I make it into that school.
I have been sending my children to this school since opening day, September 30, 2002. I have, until this year, been absolutely thrilled with the school. However, I do not like the direction the school is going rgarding testing. When the school was founded, the idea was to put as little emphasis on testing as possible. In this NCLB world, I know some test-stressing was necessary, however, I find that my children are now being taught to the test. A letter was sent home today by the assistant principal stating that test scores will be directly related to promotions. While this is not an issue for my children, the pressure being placed on the state tests is becoming onersous, and I am seriously reconsidering my own commitment to the school.
I have 3 children attending OWNCS, my oldest being there from the start in 2002. The school got off to a slow start, starting from scratch, and has progressively moved forward to be a top performing school in the district. The testing is necessary for the school to remain open according to the rules set forth in the original awarding of the charter by SUNY in 2001 and in the 5 year renewal of the charter earlier this year. There is homework every night with teachers encouraging parents to get involved with their children's education. The principal is doing a very good job, always looking for ways to improve the school.
My children have been attending OWNCS since it started. I am very pleased with the school in general. The children feel very comfortable and interested in school. There is absolutely no pressure on testing and students are motivated at all times. I particularly like the fact the there is so much cultural diversity (even more than the rest of NYC schools) and the acceptance children get by being 'different'. My children are part of a minority group and receive special education. The principal is excellent.

Breaking Gridlock
Republicans, Democrats, and Independents- we are not each other's enemies. Our enemies are high employment rates, the sky rocketing cost of prescription drugs, and the high school dropout rates. I am running for Congress because I want to help revive the American Dream for the middle class families and seniors.
- Washington is broken, and partisan gridlock is the reason why. As an Emergency Room physician, I'm trained to focus on solving problems and getting things done. When a patient is in the emergency room, it doesn't matter whether they're a Democrat or Republican, or who gets credit for solving the problem; all that matters is fixing the problem. That's the approach I'll bring to Congress. Washington is facing an emergency, and we need people willing and able to fix it.

Britain must harness marine energy: Panel
REUTERS LONDON BRITAIN must not lose its lead in the development of marine energy like it did with wind power, and should focus on reducing costs and setting ambitious deployment targets beyond 2020, a report by a parliamentary committee said on Sunday.
Seven out of the eight largescale prototype wave and tidal devices installed worldwide are in the UK but are not expected to make a large contribution to its energy mix before 2020.
"Britannia really could rule the waves when it comes to marine renewable energy," said Tim Yeo, chairman of the energy and climate change committee which produced the report.
"In the eighties the UK squandered the lead it had in wind power development and now Denmark has a large share of the worldwide market in turbine manufacturing.
"It should be a priority for the government to ensure that the UK remains at the cutting edge of developments in this technology and does not allow our lead to slip," he added.
Marine renewables are seen providing 20 percent of current UK electricity demand and the government is targeting 200 to 300 megawatts (MW) of marine capacity by 2020, 1-2 gigawatts (GW) less than its forecasts in 2010.
The government revised its figures based on what it said was realistically obtainable by industry but RenewableUK, the voice of the marine and wind industry, said 300 MW is achievable by 2017 and utility SSE alone expects to commission 200 MW of projects around 2020.
Being overly cautious could negatively impact market confidence about the long-term future of the industry in the UK and allow other countries to steal the lead, the report warned.
It said the government should not rule out setting an ambitious deployment target for marine renewables beyond 2020 if cost reductions until 2020 remain on track.
Several firms are exploring marine energy's potential.
Alstom and SSE Renewables formed a joint venture to develop a wave energy installation in Scotland and other demonstration projects are gaining momentum.
But marine technologies are still in the early stages and are a costly way to make electricity compared to other sources.

Afghan Jihad (2007): A look back at the mujahiddin who fought the Soviet-backed government of Afghanistan with US support, and who then fought against the NATO forces who invaded in 2001
In 1979 the mujahiddin of Afghanistan rebelled against an Soviet-backed central government. The US threw its financial and technological resources behind the rebel movement, offering support in any way it could. We travel into the remote Kumar Valley and find that back in 1979 the US was arming the likes Gulbuddin Hekmatyar and his organisation Hizb-e-Islamia - the very group now waging a vicious counter insurgency against Allied forces.

"Per conversations with most concerned, the problem of too modern hairstyles on male actors in Star Trek regulars as well as both SAG and SEG, has been resolved. Rather than requesting altering of the basic contour favoured by the actor, a simple and easily adjustable change is being made into the sideburns, ie. pointing the bottom of them rather than wearing them square across.
For those doing single jobs on our show, it is easily adjustable via hair growth in a few days, or touching with a makeup pencil, actual shaving unnecessary. Where possible, however, even on such extras, we would prefer the proper job.
This is mandatory for all actors appearing in our show."
—Gene Roddenberry on Star Trek hairstyles.
"Regarding Deforest Kelley's haircut for the 'Star Trek' series, I would prefer that it be the same style that he had in the 'Police Story' pilot, with the additional specification that the sideburns come to a point. Can you come up with a couple of photos from 'Police Story' pilot which show Dee's hair style clearly so his barber will be able to recreate it? Thank you."
—Gene Roddenberry on Dr. McCoy's hairstyle.
Source: Star Trek Aliens & Artifacts [Michael Westmore et al.] 2000
Mod note: I didn't even notice this until I read the quote. The pointed sideburn is present in almost every single male character from TOS right through to VOY (with a few obvious exception like those with long hair or who are bald and so on). Pointed sideburns are a staple of Star Trek along with a distinct lack of pockets on all clothing (another rigid Star Trek rule). However, neither of these rules applies to Enterprise, most likely due to it being set a century before TOS.

No where in any of the Warcraft RTS do you find space goats. Get over it. This is where WoW came from and frankly to the first players the only source of Lore. The wiki article was 'madeup' lore to satisfy once again 'even teams'. Lore is always made up to satisfy changes in the WoW story line that do not make sense to people who actually played the first games. Bye bye scrub.

This app force closes 9 times out of 10, the link to the detailed weather doesn't work on android, and it doesn't display the current conditions. On Mac products it is okay, but pretty worthless for android devices. Seems like there is enough negative fee

McAfee Knob Hike
I hiked up to McAfee Knob yesterday with Laura. Before we could even set off on our hike though, David Tate from ABC 13 interviewed us in the parking lot where the Appalachian Trail crosses Route 311. David was doing a story on the Department of Agriculture's warning to people using the National Forest System to watch out for marijuana grows. We didn't make the story but you can watch the news clip here http://bit.ly/leyulX on ABC 13's website. The hike took about two hours to get to McAfee Knob, which is one of the most photographed spots on the Appalachian Trail. At the top we met some hippies named Rainbow and Firestarter who were hiking the entire trail to Maine. It was a great hike with perfect weather, but we definitely should have brought some water because we were struggling towards the end of the day.

U.S. payroll employment rose by 175,000 in February, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in its monthly jobs report. Temporary help services added 24,400 jobs in February. The U.S. temporary penetration rate now stands at 2.03%.
Background and Analysis
In February, the economic sectors that drove employment growth included Professional Services (excluding temporary help) (+54,600), Leisure and Hospitality (+25,000), and Temporary Help Services (+24,400). The information sector (which is primarily composed of media jobs) was the only sector to experience significant job losses (-16,000).
On a year-over-year basis, U.S. payroll employment was up 1.6% in February, and monthly job gains have averaged 180,000 over the past twelve months. Temporary help employment is up 8.8% on the year, and monthly job gains in Temporary Help Services have averaged 19,000 over the past twelve months.
According to the BLS Household Survey, the national unemployment rate increased from 6.6% in January to 6.7% in February.
Staffing Industry Analysts' Perspective
February job gains mark an improvement from the weak job gains of the previous two months. The economy added 175,000 jobs, which is very close to average job gains over the past twelve months. While February job gains are not spectacular, they are a welcome change from the dismal results of January and December.
The 24,400 jobs gained in temporary help services represents another strong showing for the industry. Year-over-year employment growth remains strong, at nearly 9% - nearly six times faster than the rate of job creation for the overall economy. We maintain a positive outlook for the temporary staffing industry, especially as the economy is forecast to grow faster in 2014 than it did in 2013.
National job gains in January were revised upwards, from 113,000 to 129,000 jobs. Job gains in December were also revised upwards, from 75,000 to 84,000 jobs. However, January temporary help jobs were revised downwards, from 8,100 to only 2,100 jobs.

Seeming as I'm ahead of most of you, I figured I'd make a start on day two (that and it's day two for me now).
So, this was rather difficult but I did manage to narrow it down to two stunning Hartnell serials, The Dalek Invasion of Earth and The Daleks (Can you pick my favourite villain yet?) I'll stick to dot-points as I don't want this to go on for forever, too.
The Dalek Invasion of Earth
This serial is magnificent for many reasons but there are two which stand out above all others. The first, is the scene where Barbara Wright, kidnapped historian and school teacher, is running across the middle of London with Jenny and wheelchair bound Dortman, while Daleks patrol the streets. It's an epic scene, considering the budget at the time. In an interview I read, Jacqueline Hill (Barbara) stated that they had to be up and on set at 5am on a Sunday morning so that they wouldn't get the crowds. It was completely unheard of to be up and about before Church on a Sunday morning for that generation, so that too adds to its epicness.
Recently, there was a reenactment of one scene, where Daleks are going over Westminster Bridge.
(source - I LoveLoveLove that Daleks from different eras are used in these shots :D (chronological order, too :DDDD))
And the second is of course, Susan's goodbye. Though Hartnell plays a grumpy, cantankerous Doctor, we start to see his gentle, loving side begin to trickle into his decisions from the first few episodes but his goodbye to his beloved granddaughter hits home just how loving, genuine and humble he can really be. It's beautiful. (Hereif you want/need to watch it)
The Daleks
The main and absolute reason this serial sticks out is the effects that were achieved with such a small budget - they were all aimed to be psychological rather than outwardly shocking. I mean, even if they had a multibillion dollar budget, the 1960s most top rated special effects were still rather dismal by today's standards. This is the very first serial the Daleks appeared in and the second serial ever. Now, while egg whisks and plungers might not be terrifying any more, the way in which they're slowly revealed through camera angles, cut shots and blood curdling screams resonates in the very depths of my own mind, years after first having seen it.
(Source - terrifying, isn't it?)
Pretend for just a moment that you've never seen a Dalek, never heard a Dalek and certainly have no idea who or what Davros is. You're only just grasping the concept that yes, you can travel through time and yes, you can indeed travel through space as well. Now, you're stuck on a foreign planet and the leader of your party has dragged you into what seems to be an abandoned city, laid out like a maze that keeps changing its mind. You begin to panic and run sporadically through the corridors to get back to your friends until suddenly, this seemingly mechanical creature comes at you, while you're still all alone and scared, with long things aimed at you from the darkness.
That is a Dalek. That is why they're terrifying.
Susan's goodbye is heartbreaking. And awesome. At the same time. I think.

Would you stay home or go to a remote location to telework if it was an executive order from the Governor? Apparently that is exactly what Virginia Governor Timothy Kaine is asking of us.
On June 10, 2009, Virginia Governor Timothy Kaine issued an Executive Order to "green" Virginia – calling for reductions in energy consumption and efficiency in state government operations as well as a statewide Telework Day to save the energy of commuting.
I went on the pledge site, and sure enough, there are already organizations that have pledged to allow their telework eligible employees to do so along with pledges from individuals.
Telework to me is all about trust. The organization has to trust that their employees will be productive when they are working away from the office. Employees understand that they aren't going to get credit for simply "showing up". It's a newer way of thinking about work and where one has to be to get things done. It's all about choices. However, it is also very important for an organization offering telework to document what their telework program is by providing policies, agreements and program details to their employees. There is nothing like the feeling of unfairness in an office atmosphere to get the blood boiling at the water cooler.
So what are you waiting for? Go to the site and pledge to Telework. If you need help setting up a telework program at your organization contact Arlington Transportation Partners about how to get started.

LucasArts and IGN have released the debut gameplay trailer for the upcoming Star Wars 1313 video game. Although we are big fans of first-person shooters, sometimes games of the third-person variety offer a nice break and Star Wars titles tend to be rather fun. Anyway, peep the trailer above. It's looking like an action packed game for sure.

Did you ever have a really amazing break-up?
I didn't think so. Most break-ups are preceded by weeks (if not months) of agony over "What's wrong with my relationship?" and second guessing yourself and your partner.
But I was inspired to stop and think if maybe there wasn't one clean, smooth move after I read The Vancouverites Change of Heart post, where she describes being newly encouraged by the dating scene in Vancouver due to a particularly pleasant break-up.
I know, weird.
Yet three great break-ups* from my past popped into my head, all for different reasons:
The Confidence Builder
After a particularly ill-suited long-term relationship went south, I was incredibly anxious about making the same major mistake again. After dating Sam for a little while it was beyond exciting to give him the boot once I realized I was repeating a bad pattern. I considered myself cured of unhealthy dating choices.
On the Same Page
Jared and I seemed perfectly matched. We were both wildly interested in music, theater, and hanging out downtown. He was a good-looking guy and I was in a particularly physically self-confident phase. But we both knew after giving it a shot that neither one of us wanted this to be for the long haul. It was almost as if we shook hands after a tie game and walked away.
The Cheater
Another rebound guy, I was in the perfect head space to fall for an attached man. Even though it came as a surprise that Tom had a girlfriend, I'm positive my "no commitment here" vibe attracted him like a bee to honey. It felt like taking a hot shower after disengaging from something that wasn't good for anyone.
Did you ever have a great break-up?
*Names have been changed to protect the dumped/dumper.

For me, I didn't realize they were great until a few weeks after. Even if I was the dumper, it took me a little to feel okay about it.
Are those really great break ups or just break ups you both felt were necessary? I had dated an ex from my early 20s when I got divorced back in 2005. He was going through a divorce and I was going through a divorce and after a few months we both decided we weren't ready for relationships - it was amicable. It was a very easy break up to go through - I remember finding out that he went back to his ex-wife and I was mad, but just because I knew he was being dumb and it wasn't going to last. I had another relationship 2 summers ago with a guy I call my Sweet July & August & September. It was a great summer relationship, but he was going through a divorce and got a little weird after about a month and a half. We stopped talking for a week and then started talking again - started dating again and then the same thing happened in September. We decided he wasn't ready to date just yet and we became friends. It was an amicable break up. What I would say is a great break up is when you realize that the person you are with is a loser - you have wasted more than enough time on trying to change his loser qualities - and you say good bye forever and you never look back. That is a great break up... having the courage and strength to move forward without hesitation.
Hey there! Thanks for the shout out on my blog post!! Glad to have provided some inspiration. Just a note to clarify - it wasn't really a break up ;) We dated a little, stayed friends, and then it was too difficult for me to maintain the friendship because I had some left-over feelings so I decided to do what's best and take a break. It felt like a breakup of sorts, we were getting to be amazing friends! Unfortunately, I'm not in a place in my life where I desire yet another amazing platonic male friend. All in all it still was an amicable "letting go" of one another and I'm glad that you found this as positive as I did.

NewDotNet may be installed on your system with or without your knowledge. A few years ago, a company called NewDotNet decided to start selling nonstandard Toplevel Domain names. At the time, the only valid domain names were .com, .org, .edu, .gov, .mil, and .net. NewNet decided to make up it's own domain names including things like .law, .club, .tech, .xxx and so on. You could pay to register a domain name through New.Net. The catch is that nobody would see your domain unless they had the NewDotNet plugin installed on their computer. For that reason, it became important for NewNet to get their software installed on as many computers as possible. They did this in several ways. Now that many new toplevel domain names have been approved by InterNIC, this new.net functionality is even less useful.
NewDotNet is good example of what's being referred to as Foistware. Foistware is software that adds hidden components to your computer. Usually it's done without your knowledge when you install some other program that would be useful to you.
This program is has been known to be installed along with KaZAa, Earthlink, @Home (ComCast), Juno, Webshots, NetZero, AudioGalaxy, Bearshare and a host of other programs.
The DLL component is a plugin to your Internet Explorer Browser. It adds some internet functionality but nothing of real use. It's sneaky in how it gets on your system and it will also update itself without letting you know. It's unknown what new updated versions may do on your system. It has also been known to cause crashes so we recommend removing it from your system.
You can disable this DLL using WinPatrol but it's recommended you also use Add/Remove programs to remove the entire application. This DLL ties closely into the WinSock communication so if you just delete the DLL you'll screw up your system. You can use this utility to repair a damanged winsock.dll file:

If you have come to this page for advice on a military discharge upgrade, please contact us with the information below. Without this basic information we can't begin to give you an idea of your case.
As a way to help reduce the costs to you, we have developed a self-help pamphlet which you can follow to submit your own petition, or as the basic building block for us in helping you prepare a petition. The pamphlet is available by using the payment option below. We then offer a reduced fee for a full consultation to review and advise on your completed pamphlet, before submission. If we review your package and we can help improve the package, we can discuss additional fees for representation before the Discharge Review Board.
Note. Except for the Air Force, changes to re-enlistment codes go through a board for correction of military records.
Note. DRB petitions must be submitted within 15 years from the date of discharge on the DD214. There are no waivers of this deadline.
Note. BCMR petitions must be submitted within three years from the date of discharge on the DD214. There are some discretionary waivers of this deadline, but only "for good cause." In an extraordinary and very meritorious situation the BCMR might consider a discharge upgrade that is submitted after the 15 years deadline.
Note. The DRB's will not usually hold a personal appearance hearing on a first application. Typically they will do a records review first. The exceptions to the policy appear to be: you are close to the 15 year deadline, so this will likely be your last opportunity to petition; or you have a stand-out case which really gets their interest.
Note. There are a number of factors that seem to improve the chances for success. Here is a non-exclusive list of what we find to have been most helpful.
a. Community service. If you have a long and good history of community service since leaving the military, you have a positive factor toward upgrade. (I include law enforcement or fire department service in this category.)
b. Pristine life. No traffic tickets or law enforcement related incidents, excellent work history, evidence of maturity. Included here are such factors as attending AA or NA if the reason for discharge was substance abuse related.
IT IS A MYTH - a lie, there are NO automatic upgrades after six months. Regrettably I still hear of people being told this, oftentimes by people who should know better.
Please contact us with the information below. Without this basic information we can't begin to give you an idea of your case.

decomposition in the case of amines. Physical solvent absorbents also degrade for similar reasons and suffer loss due to evaporation. There is need for new, low-cost sorbent materials that have enhanced stability, are less volatile and less viscous, have higher CO2 capacity per unit of mass, are more environmentally friendly, and require less energy consumption for operation.
Potential candidate materials include but are not limited to the following: molten metal oxides, medium-temperature eutectics, ionic liquids, biphasic materials, and CO2 transfer agents that reversibly form compounds with CO2 (e.g., alkyl carbonate). Some of these materials offer the potential advantages of being stable above 300 °C, are nonvolatile, and have tunable properties. Hybrid materials that possess synergistic effects may offer additional advantages of being multifunctional. Recent developments in experimental methods and computational techniques, such as density-functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamic methods, provide new tools for designing and synthesizing tailored molecules with unique properties.
Sorbents are used to remove CO2 from a gas stream typically at higher temperatures than those used for absorbents, up to 700 °C or 800 °C in a combustion process. The common sorbents are metal oxides, such as calcium oxide (CaO). These materials chemically react with the carbon dioxide, in the case of CaO by forming carbonates. In most cases, the sorption capacity is limited to about 30 percent—that is, only about 30 percent of the CaO is converted to carbonate. The capacity can be improved by better engineering of the pore structure of the CaO in which case close to 100 percent capacity can be achieved. However, significant improvements in the operational characteristics of the sorbent would make this approach much more attractive. A desirable sorbent should have high CO2 capacity (up to 100 percent of theoretical capacity), function in the presence of water vapor in the gas stream, and have fast reaction and regeneration kinetics, high durability, and the ability to be regenerated with minimal energy consumption. Sorbents that can operate at high temperatures (600 °C to 700 °C) could eliminate the need to cool the gas. The ability to remove other pollutants also is desirable.
High-temperature sorbents can also be applied to the production of hydrogen from fossil fuels. Natural gas or coal can be gasified to a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (CO/H2). Increased hydrogen production is traditionally achieved by employing the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction. However, the equilibrium of the WGS reaction requires a low reaction temperature in order to achieve high hydrogen concentration. Research is under way to separate hydrogen from high-temperature gas mixtures by means of high-temperature hydrogen separation membranes to shift the equilibrium toward hydrogen formation. Similar results can be achieved by removing CO2 from a high-temperature gas mixture by the reaction of CO2 with high-temperature sorbents, leading to the production of pure hydrogen. Metal oxides can also be effective for multifunctional pollution control. For example, calcium-based sorbents can react with sulfur oxides, hydrogen sulfide, and chlorine to a high extent as well, thus reducing their concentration in effluent streams to parts per million (ppm) levels.
New oxide compositions (e.g., multicomponent oxides, supported oxides) and/or oxides of engineered porosity are candidate materials. Completely novel sorbents, such as a

The medical device tax that was created to help pay for Obamacare is also a job-killing tax, and because of the outcry of the medical device industry there is bipartisan support against it. Here is what Politico wrote about the tax last month (h/t: Hotair):
Medical innovation is key to providing cutting-edge, lifesaving technologies to patients. Between 1980 and 2000, new diagnostic and treatment tools helped increase life expectancy by more than three years. But the new tax will take money from our research and development pipelines, reducing our ability to discover and develop lifesaving medical devices such as heart valves, molecular diagnostic tests and MRI machines. …
Many of the novel, cutting-edge medical technology innovations come from small companies with very few employees. Unfortunately, the medical device tax will hit these small companies and startups hardest, because it will be applied on sales, regardless of whether a company is making any profit. Small businesses often suffer losses in the early years of operation when they are investing in research and development on new products. Paying a sizable new tax while incurring traditional startup-driven losses will be more than many small businesses can bear. …
This innovation tax also targets an American manufacturing sector created by companies choosing to locate in the United States even as markets grow beyond our borders. … The U.S. accounts for 40 percent of the global medical technology market. We have a $5.4 billion trade surplus because American workers create high-tech, top-quality medical devices…
And yet, this tax threatens these gains. At least three studies have estimated the tax will cost tens of thousands of jobs — by one estimate as many as 43,000 jobs.
Despite all of this, Obama refuses to delay it saying that these companies will get tons of new customers so it's all good:

►An explosives detection dog discovered explosives on a truck during a routine check at the southwestern Ringhals atomic power station in Sweden. The driver of the truck was unaware of the explosives and police suspect sabotage. The explosives had no detonator so there was no chance of an explosion, bomb technicians said.
►The operator of Japan's Fukushima Daiichi power plant admitted Wednesday that it was not fully prepared for the nuclear disaster. "All who were related to the nuclear plant could not predict an occurrence of the event which was far beyond our expectation. We did not have enough measures to prevent the accident," said Masao Yamazaki, executive vice president of Tokyo Electric Power Co. Read more from CNN's coverage of Yamazaki's Wednesday press conference.
►The Department of Health and Human Services has awarded contracts to start work on three new biodefense centers. The contracts total about $400 million and include expansion of Emergent BioSolutions facilities in Maryland and Novartis facilities in North Carolina, and lab improvements and a new center dedicated to pandemic flu research at Texas A&M. "On an everyday basis these centres are going to be helping other developers of medical counter-measures for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats, on the same hand if there's an emergency then we've got to be able to respond to things like pandemic influenza or other threats," said HHS Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority Director, Robin Robinson. "HHS projects that the centres will be able to produce 25 percent of the country's pandemic flu vaccine supply within four months of an outbreak," Nature reports.
►In other news, reports are mixed on the health condition of former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak. One news agency reported that he was clinically dead on Tuesday. A defense official says he isn't dead, but his health is quickly deteriorating. Another source said he should make a full recovery in three days. ♦ The United Nations is encouraging talks between Sudan and South Sudan to reduce violence on their shared border and clashes over the disputed Abyei area. ♦ And so far, Bit9 is the only company to report that it can prevent Flame from successfully executing an attack. "During an eight-month custom persistent attack on one of its customers Bit9's technology prevented Flame from running and executing on the customer's endpoints, laptops, and servers," according says a release from Bit9.

Officer accused of embezzling $7,000 obtained fundraising for disabled deputy
By Richard Winton, Times Staff Writer
Imelda Zambrano, 28, of South Gate was allegedly videotaped last month receiving a check for the relief fund from a restaurant owner; prosecutors say she deposited the check into her own bank account.
"She'd been doing this kind of thing for about a year," Deputy Dist. Atty. Thomas Krag said. "What she didn't know this time was, it was a sting operation."
