Congrats Dorkstar!
Welcome to the winner's circle!
Thanks HotHardware and our very giving sponsors, for another great contest.
Dogs are great judges of character, and if your dog doesn't like somebody being around, you shouldn't trust them.
Congratulations man!!
Woooooooo! I've had enough heart attacks the past few days with my e-mail notifying me of a reply, that this time I wasn't even expecting it. Don't get me wrong, I just walked over to my wife and woke her up from a nap to tell her about it, she rolled over, grunted and went back to sleep. She's not as excited unfortunately...
Not only did I win a computer raging beast, but I felt like I've found a good place to settle down and share my opinions with other people with similar interest as myself. Every person here that I've conversed with, has been something I can only describe as a "good dude" (This applies to Manduh and any other females as well, lol). I can't wait to be here when someone else gets their big win!
Merry Christmas to all, and a big thanks to everyone at HotHardware for making this place what it is. A place like no other.
Congrats man! You did it! Glad to hear you're going to stick around. See ya in the threads!

Seems like you're pretty excited, but are you HAPPY HAPPY LUCKY?!
Congrats! If there was a HH pool of who'd win, I would've picked you. Enjoy this monster, I think you certainly earned it. This place could use a little more Dorkstar and a little less "Good inf, is good game!" and "GREAT PRIZE".

Well, the Holiday festivities are finally coming to a closing. After opening all my presents this morning, my best friend and I spent the next few hours going over every detail of this build. Needless to say, I'm even more excited about it now.
Thanks everyone for the congratulations. I'll be here to pass it on to one of you the next go around. ; )
Did I miss the build video for this puppy?
I'm not sure if it's been posted yet.
Marco shot me a e-mail last Thursday saying that he was still waiting on parts to come in from Thermaltake. So, hopefully it should be up soon!
Some things are definitely worth waiting for,.....and Marco never disappoints in his builds.
Nope, I was employed with a company that was selling workstations for use in 3d heart valve replacement, but the company had issues getting off the ground, so I got 3 week left there until they lay me off.
However, with the impending layoff I've been exploring other options, and have started dabbling in my own hardware review/technology news blog. I don't expect it to be profitable, and I've really been focused on getting some things done around the house since they gave me a week off. I've also been working with a few friends who do home theater automation and installation. We've been working with a CPA to file for an LLC, and have an official business going. Unfortunately were having some difficulty getting any work, so I may back out and let them two get it up and going while I figure out where I'm going now.
I've spent the past 9 years in healthcare equipment related jobs, everything from repairing equipment, buying parts, to my most recent employment of running everything from the home office with the intention of managing a field service team for various products relate to minimally invasive heart valve replacement and 3d mapping of veins throughout the body. Unfortunately, I only made it out of the office to a site one time, and the money maker of the 2 products didn't launch when expected. So I'm looking into going back to school to finish my degree, grab a few more certifications (mainly cisco and microsoft), and get back into what I love, IT. Right now i'm planning on network security, it seems like a nice niche field, where I work without being bothered.

As I watched the movie with my children, there were the usual suspects: a cute little girl, a dog and a father who didn't know he had a daughter but was about to get his chance at redemption. Throw in some Elvis Presley tunes and competitive professional sports for dramatic effect, and you've got one of those feel-good movies that tugs at your heartstrings while tickling your funny bone.
Throughout the movie, the main character kept saying, "the power of the father." What started out as a phrase to help him stay focused in his newly discovered role became something more: the belief that a father has the power to give his children something that no one else can. And while this film was no Old Yeller or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, it did manage to successfully ask, "Do children really need a father?" Even in the midst of Hollywood dips and turns, the answer was clear: Yes, there really is a power that only a father brings to his children.
Any time I see a film that even remotely acknowledges such a truth, I'm thankful. Much of our media do not believe a father to be necessarily beneficial, and those that include dads in a script often portray him as an absolute idiot. It's sad, really. Actually, it's a disgrace.
The pattern established in the beginning was this:
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Gen 2:24)
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Gen 2:24)
A man would leave his father and mother and take a wife. They would be fruitful and multiply. The children would benefit from both parents, as each one would bring different and necessary facets to the child's life. This was the pattern, the divine design.
I realize the phrase power of the father might stir up less-than-desirable reactions from some. Power is a word that can be used for good or evil. But just because some have and will abuse the reality behind the word, there's no need to write it off. God's Word clearly indicates that men — fathers — bring power to the parenting relationship. The woman brings life; the father brings strength. There will be days when a mother brings strength to things and there will be days when a man brings life. But the abiding pattern, the divine design, gives power to the father. The question, as always, is, "How will the power be used?"
I hope this series will cause you to stop and ponder a little — or maybe a lot. A father's presence means something to a child. The permission a father gives differs from that a mother offers. It's not necessarily nice to point, but a father had better set nice aside from time to time and point out a few things along the way. If he doesn't, then who will?
As a father, you may read these articles and think, My father never did those things for or with me! As a result, these words may bring pain to the surface. Please remember that if we don't seek to transform our pain, we'll just transfer it to others — often our sons and daughters.
The love of our heavenly Father can redeem any pain and transform it into something strong, solid and powerful. Fathers, we all get a second chance — maybe many chances — at redemption. There may not be canned laughter or the dramatic lighting of a Hollywood movie, but a redeemed father's power might just make the difference in a little girl or boy's life.
"Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant…" – Philippians 2:5-7 (NASB)
I recently found myself in an uncomfortable situation. I was definitely out of my comfort zone, in way over my head. The reason for my anxiety? The Nintendo Wii. My son turned eleven and scored a Wii for his birthday and it was time for dad to take a turn. I was given the controller and in no time at all lost all my "lives" and allowed the virtual galaxy to run amuck. For some reason (age possibly?), I just couldn't get it.
My son was quite gracious in the moment. Dad, it's o.k. Just sit with me and watch and you'll get it. I know you will. And so I did. I sat and watched and sat and watched and sat and watched. I still don't entirely understand how to maneuver somebody called Mario, but I'm only forty-one; I've still got time.
Another moment like this occurred back in December. Not a lot of anxiety in this one, but I had to sit down. My daughter asked me to look through a catalog with her. Just sit with me, dad. This'll only take a minute. She had circled a sweater that caught her eye and wanted to make sure it was on my holiday radar. And so I did. We sat and looked at every page until we came to the reason for our sit-down. The correct size and color were emphasized, followed by a hug around the neck, a kiss on the cheek, and something like you're the greatest dad ever! These daughters. Smart, huh?
So, one afternoon after work, I journeyed like a magi to the appropriate store and rattled off the correct item number, size, and color to someone who looked every bit of twelve. The girl-clerk seemed impressed at my vast knowledge of this particular item of clothing. Wow! How do you know so much about this? I told her it came from sitting and listening and flipping pages and stuff. She said cool.
Moments like this seem to be popping up all over my fathering landscape. Moments where I'm reminded of something called the power of presence. Maybe you prefer "stopping to smell the roses" or "being there." Potato, potatoe; same thing. Now, lest you think I'm the greatest dad ever, rest assured that for every moment when I've stopped to smell the roses with my children, there have been twice as many moments where the roses had to take a back seat to my own, "more important" little world.
But kids are gracious and I'm learning. I'm learning how utterly vital it is to them that I, the father, set aside my adult privileges and sit for awhile and humble myself and enter their world. I don't have to get the high score or even like hoodies; I just have to be there, with them, my presence passing along something to them that may be real close to that word L-O-V-E.
Incarnational fathering. An intentional setting aside of the me in order to enter into the them. And in that moment or moments, it's not necessarily what I say or do, but that I'm there. Now we all know there are moments of action and trailblazing and preparedness that children desperately need from their father. However, I believe there are just as many moments when they long for a power from us that comes primarily from our presence; humbling ourselves, like Christ our example, and entering their worlds. You could call it "fathering in the image of God" – the greatest Dad ever.
Sometimes, doing something for my kids and getting it over with (quickly) so I can get back to what I want to do is nothing more than a broad road to ruin. The narrow road, the one that leads to life, it's not doing anything but being there, physically present, and resting in the promise that the Father up above is looking down in love and He's got the whole world in his hands.
Fathers, don't overlook the power of your presence. Power via humility. It doesn't make a lick of worldly sense. But it may just make an eternal difference in the lives of our sons and daughters.
Just sit with me dad. It'll only take a minute…
"As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy." – James 5:11 (NIV)
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines perseverance as "persisting in a state, enterprise, or undertaking in spite of counterinfluences, opposition, or discouragement." Whew! Some days that sounds awfully close to my definition of fatherhood. There is a subtly dangerous idea floating around out there that sees real fatherhood as a succession of victories; crossing the fathering finish line as some Olympic Athlete to be presented with the gold medal of DAD. That idea not only sets up all earthly fathers for a fall, but it also shoots the truth of the heavenly Father's providence right in the foot.
What if real fathering looks like crossing the finish line more akin to a Velveteen Rabbit instead of an Olympic Athlete?
"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby."
What do you do when you raise up a daughter in the fear and admonition of the Lord and then one day during her 15th year, she whispers through tears, "Daddy, I'm pregnant"? I mean really, what do you do? If your fathering model is the Olympic Athlete, then you've just been disqualified from the race. I mean, what kind of father allows his daughter to get pregnant? But if you see fathering in a Velveteen Rabbit kind of way, then you persist in that undertaking in spite of opposition or discouragement; also known as perseverance. As disappointing and confusing and heart-wrenching as that moment is, you hold her close and whisper through tears, "I love you, my daughter. God will carry us through this." And because God is full of something called compassion, then that child she's carrying may bless generations to come, like Moses, or that child may just bless your heart beyond your wildest imaginations and you'll wonder what you'd do without that child in your life.
What do you do when your youngest son asks for his inheritance early and sets off to a distant land, turning his back on you and all you hold dear, which is essentially saying, "You might as well be dead, Dad; I don't need you"? I mean really, what do you do? If victorious fathering is your benchmark, then you might as well leave the keys with the older brother and go off under a tree and wait for the vultures to start circling.
But if Real fathering is the desire, then you persist in the enterprise in spite of counterinfluences; also known as perseverance. As lonely as that moment feels, you turn around and take out the trash or pay the mortgage or feed the sheep or sweep out the barn. And while you keep doing what fathers do, you stay aware that perseverance must finish its work in you so that you will be mature and complete, not lacking anything (James 5:3,4). And if you keep entrusting yourself to the Good Father, then there's a chance, always a hope, that one of these days, when you least expect it, there will be a knock at the door that you'd know anywhere. And you drop the trash or trust the sheep to find some grass for the time being, and you run willy-nilly-velveteen-rabbity through the house and out the door and fall to your knees in the grass you've persisted to mow because that's what fathers do, and you whisper through tears, "My son who was lost has now been found; he was dead, but now he lives."
I realize that may sound too good to be true, but if we fathers persevere, then no telling what the Lord may bring about. Don't forget, the Lord is full of something called mercy, which endures forever, and forever can persevere beyond young prodigals or jealous older brothers or pregnant-too-soon-daughters, death or life, angels or demons, the present or the future, or any powers, height or depth, or anything else in all creation.
Gentlemen, being faithful in persevering as a father can find you standing before the Father one day, with hair loved off and droopy eyes and shabby joints. You'll hear Him whisper through tears of pride a phrase that's worth more than gold: "Well done. Enter into your rest."
Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6.4 (NIV)
Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6.4 (NIV)
"Don't run!"
"No, you cannot have an iPhone!"
"There's no way you're having a sleepover!"
"No! You're not going outside wearing that!"
There's nothing wrong with saying "no" to things. Sometimes, there is no way she's going outside wearing that, and no, he doesn't need an iPhone. On the other hand, permissive parenting always says "yes" even when it's not appropriate. Instead, your kids need to see you as a father with the power to withhold permission in their lives. At times, "withholding" has the power to exasperate.
I was looking through our family photo albums one day and noticed something striking in our kids' baby pictures. In pictures where their mom was holding them, she always held them "in" – in other words, their body would be turned toward her. Always. However, photos where I held them, I always had their bodies turned "out" so that they would be facing the world at large. Always.
I'm not a psychologist, but it seems that there's a reason for the difference in the way men and women hold their children. A mother keeps the child close, sheltering and protecting. A father keeps the child close as well, but he gives permission to step, run, fall or stumble headlong into the great big world. I believe you dads are the primary permission givers. You're the one who has the power to say, "Yes, I believe you can!" or "Well, I don't know, but why don't you give it a try?" This isn't to say that mothers can't give permission as effectively. But when it comes from a father, it's different. It just is.
Here are two examples, one with my son and one with my daughter. I gave my son permission to wear shorts this spring. Now, we live in Colorado, where April is sometimes very similar to December. If the decision had been up to his mother, she would not have let him wear the shorts, choosing to parent out of a desire to shelter and protect. As his mother, to not feel that desire would deny who God made her to be. But I decided to let him wear the shorts, thinking, Well, son of mine, it's only going to be maybe fifty degrees in that big old world out there, but why don't you give it a try? If you freeze your brains out, then you'll probably learn a valuable lesson, so go for it.
My son is in the early throes of puberty, and he needs his father to give him permission at appropriate times to step, run, fall, stumble headlong or freeze his brains off in this great big world. It's a very powerful piece of the puzzle he's putting together in these years of growing into manhood. I was giving him permission to do something that was powerfully connected to the man he hopes to one day be.
I am also called to do that for my daughters as they grow into womanhood. A couple of months ago, I gave my daughter permission to cry. She experienced a loss, and being the middle child she was, well, she was caught in the middle. She didn't want to do the first-born-be-mature-tough-it-out thing and she didn't want to lose-it-completely-like-my-baby-sister-does either. What's a middle girl to do? I sat beside her and held her and said, "It's o.k. to just cry about it." And with my permission, she did. I chose to hold her "out" to face the world while still holding her close, and drew from my fatherly repository of country music lyrics: [How can I help you to say goodbye? It's o.k. to hurt, it's o.k. to cry. Come let me hold you and I will try.] Daughter of mine, it's hard being in the middle and it probably always will be, but I understand that, probably more than you know, and sometimes when things or people on either side squeeze you, the you in the middle, then it's best to just let the tears fall, so go for it. It's o.k.
I was giving her permission to do something that was powerfully connected to the woman she hopes to one day be, although sometimes it's hard to hope that from the middle. My "yes" was permission to not be conformed (Romans 12:2) to what this world holds for women (where vulnerability means weakness) and instead to see how a vulnerable heart is an essential part of becoming an Eve, a life-giver, one who shelters and protects as God intended. Her mother could have done that just as effectively as I did, but coming from her father, it was different. It just was. I cried with her, and then she asked if it was too cold to wear shorts in February in Colorado.
I said go for it.
Men, you can give permission without being permissive. There's a powerful difference between the two. There just is.
Train a child in the way he should go,and when he is old he will not turn from it.Proverbs 22.6 (NIV)
All too often the phrase "in the way he should go" has been interpreted to mean the ways of godliness or righteousness. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that emphasis; however, that's not what this proverb is aiming for. An error in perception, or the way we see this verse, ends up causing an error in the way this verse is applied.
The words "in the way he should go" are taken from a Hebrew phrase that literally reads "according to the tenor of his ways." Here's what it looks like:
Train up the child according to the tenor of his way, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
Here's how this plays out. The temptation is to use a "one size fits all" approach to parenting; in other words, everybody is treated the same. Resisting that temptation allows for each child to be perceived, or seen, for the ways in which God created them. An awareness of their disposition or individual character then guides you in how teaching and correction are approached. It helps you to know how best to help them become who God created them to be.
My wife and I have been blessed with three children; a son and two daughters. And believe you me, each one of our three is d-i-f-f-e-r-e-n-t. But they all have a common request of their father: Dad, look at me. The power of perception. Dads, when we look, what do we see?
There are the obvious differences between boys and girls. The book of Genesis clearly speaks into this: He [God] created them male and female. The literature is abundant these days on the differences between the two. Miss seeing that first important distinction and you'll miss much about your children and they may quite possibly miss much about themselves.
There are also the telling differences that show up as a result of birth order. It's silly to straight-jacket your kids into some behavior due to their birth order, but it's just as silly to dismiss it outright. Those birth order books sell because there's something that rings true in them. Think about the birth order examples in scripture: Jacob the trickster and hairy, firstborn Esau; Joseph the dreamer and his jealous brothers; Mary who wanted nothing more than to "be" while Martha was always compelled to "do."
And then there are those subtle differences that take a sharp eye to spot; they're what the Hebrews referred to as "the tenor of his ways." This is where it takes courage to be a father to your son or daughter, for I'm talking about looking and listening and noticing, otherwise known as "paying attention." And like the first word of that phrase (paying), it'll cost you something. Not being willing to pay that price may be what Paul was warning about when he wrote, "Fathers, do not exasperate your children" (Eph. 6.4). How many times have you heard an exasperated adult voice bemoan, "My father never really saw me?" Yeah, a bunch.
Do you remember the story of Adam, the first man? One of his duties was to see each created animal and then name them. There was a power inherent in his naming of each one. That same power is available for fathers today. We're not naming rhinos or beagles, but we do have the opportunity to really look into the lives of our children and name what we see.
Does your daughter have artistic gifts? How about buying her a Georgia O'Keeffe book and reading together about that southwestern saint? Or maybe your son loves to sing. You're not sure where that came from but the point is he loves it and furthermore, he's pretty good. Do you have the courage to name what you see? Can you encourage him and support his efforts to develop that gift? Or maybe your daughter adores animals. Is there anything truly wrong with having a pet turtle, a beta fish, a dog, and maybe even a rabbit? Truly looking into her life may reveal a heart that is gentle towards God's creatures and you, Dad, may see it when no one else does. She desperately needs you to wield your God-given power and help her grow into who she is. Who else is going to do that?
Gentlemen, remember what they want and need: "Dad, look at me."
"It's not nice to point."- Mama
"It's not nice to point."- Mama
It's important for a father to draw his children's attention to things outside themselves. That's why, with all due respect to Mama, it's OK to point. I think she'll understand.
The lines that follow are from Wendell Berry's The Hidden Wound. First, Berry is describing Aunt Georgie, an influential figure from his childhood:
She was always showing you something: a plant, a bloom, a tomato, an egg, an herb, a sprig of greens. Suddenly you saw it as she saw it – vivid, useful, free of all the chances against it, a blessing – and it entered shadowless into your mind.1
She was always showing you something: a plant, a bloom, a tomato, an egg, an herb, a sprig of greens. Suddenly you saw it as she saw it – vivid, useful, free of all the chances against it, a blessing – and it entered shadowless into your mind.1
Berry talks also about his grandfather, pointing out hired hand Nick Watkins:
He admired him…and was always pointing him out to me as an example: "Look a yonder how old Nick sets up to drive his mules. Look how he takes hold of the lines. Remember that, and you'll know something."2
He admired him…and was always pointing him out to me as an example: "Look a yonder how old Nick sets up to drive his mules. Look how he takes hold of the lines. Remember that, and you'll know something."2
Berry was graced to have grown up in a world populated by phrases like "Look a yonder" and "Look how" and "Do you see that tomato?" He lived a life in the present that was sculpted by the power of pointing to the past. There are many who describe Wendell Berry and his writings with one word: wise.
Fathers, the power to point is accessible to us in two ways. We've got to look first and then have the presence of mind to point it out to those entrusted to us. This doesn't happen overnight; it's a gradual learning, especially if you did not have an Aunt Georgie or Grandfather Berry in your life. But just because something is gradual doesn't mean it's impractical or unattainable.
So first we've got to be looking ourselves. Are you aware of your surroundings? Do you pay attention to things outside of yourself? Are those railroad crossing instructions – Stop. Look. Listen. – a routine part of your day? Living this kind of a life involves slowing down. There's no way around it. Now if you're like me, you've already got lots of people telling you to slow down and savor life. Most days that seems utterly impossible; there is so much good to do for those we love. But if you're like me, then you also know the truth of the saying that "good is often the enemy of great."
Fathers, we'll blink and they'll be graduating from college, walking down aisles and stepping into marriage, welcoming their own children home from the maternity wing. Sunrise, sunset. It goes so fast. The lyrics to Harry Chapin's Cat's in the Cradle should haunt us all; our children might grow up to be "just like me." If you're going to slow down, then carpe diem; today's the day to begin. Don't run yellow lights. Turn off e-mail on the weekends. Whatever you need to do, do it.
I firmly believe the last thing a father needs these days is another voice yelling, "You're not doing enough!" Some days we don't have time; some weeks we're gone on business trips; some moments we miss things right in front of our noses. What's a father to do?
If you noticed, the showing/pointing people in Berry's life were not always his father. Berry's grandfather filled that role at times, as did his Aunt Georgie. I, in no way, want to diminish the power that you have as a dad in pointing out people and places to your children. I hope you won't diminish it either. At the same time, I want to encourage you to make certain that your children spend time in the presence of others you know that possess the power of pointing. I'm not sure it always takes a village, but there are days when a Grandfather Berry or an Aunt Georgie are indispensable to our children remembering and learning and knowing.
Gentlemen, you don't always have to do it yourself. I just want to point that out.

Vintage Advantage in a Diamond Ring
New lower price!!! Down from $595! Post war prosperity meant a shift back to the opulence of gems and precious metals. Here we see an example of the jeweler's art using an estimated .15 carat brilliant cut diamond (I-J color; VS2-SI1 clarity) and two single cut diamonds with a total diamond weight of .03 carats set in 14k white gold to create the visual of diamonds larger than the actual weight. The white gold set diamonds are against a lovely pierced and open work mount of 14k yellow gold decorated with nicely appointed designs.
Date: Circa 1950.
Measurements: 3/8 of an inch (0.9 cm) in length north to south on the hand and rises 3/16 of an inch (0.5 cm) height off the finger. Weight of 3.2 grams (2.0 dwt).
Ring Size: US 6-1/4 (UK M; Int. Dia. 16.75; Euro 53 mm; Japan 12) and easily can be sized to fit most. Ring sizing information.
Hallmarks: "14k"; "AK".
Condition: Excellent.
Origin: American.
Note: Diamonds have not been removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. All diamond weights have been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights. Grading has been done in situ and also may vary if stones are removed.

- Too heavy

I love the look, craftsmanship and idea, but this is far too heavy for a female to carry books in to school. I tried, but it is a bear. Add the large and bulky straps and it feels like you're carrying a tent to class. Sorry~

Love it. I have the Serengeti !
Use your imagination guys to those with quibbles - padding; put small rolled towel at base/ straps take 5 minutes to break in - try twisting and bending them - it works ! Great bag...

- Beautiful bag, but large
- Rating
I bought this bag to use as my daypack on an urban backpacking trip around Central and South America. My criteria for a backpack were: 1) Small and light weight, as it needed to fit inside my larger travel pack. 2) Rugged, so it could last 1-2 years on the road, 3) It must provide good protection for my laptop. 4) It should look stylish, and not make me look like a high school or college student.
This bag succeeded on all counts, except #1. Although it was light "enough" (coming in at 3.0 lbs--the standard laptop daypack is only 2.6lbs, FYI), it was too large and bulky, taking up a nearly a full half of my daypack's contents.
For this reason, I reluctantly returned this bag, which I loved in every other respect, for a smaller bag made by another company.
I didn't use the product long enough to determine how durable it is, but by all appearances, it's probably the most durable back pack I've ever seen, not counting my much larger MEI travel pack, with which it is probably a tie.
I think calling this a "daypack" is a bit of a misnomer, and instead would call it a "small backpack". But to be fair, any bag large enough to carry a laptop is going to be on the large-side of the "daypack" genre, in my opinion.
I would give it 5 stars if not for the fact that it didn't work for my needs.

- Great bag, side pocket?
- Rating
I've been using this bag for a little over a month now. It fits all my books, pens and, of course, my laptop. Everything is very sturdy and I have a very strong belief that this will be the last backpack (of this size) I'll ever buy.
I have only one issue with the bag and that is its lack of a side pocket or two. I'd like a place to be able to store an umbrella or water bottle. HOWEVER, for how durable this bag seems to be I can easily forget about this.

- Good, but could use a few tweaks
- Rating
I LOVE this backpack. I am able to fit everything I need in it (I have to carry a lot!!) It's durable and will certainly last a while. The one thing that concerns me is the laptop sleeve- there is no padding on the bottom so the laptop is prone in that area to dents/scratches if you are not careful. I tried putting some foam on the bottom, but it did not work.

- Fantastic

Pretty much my favorite backpack I've ever owned. I read some of the criticisms here and I disagree with some of them. My arms used to feel uncomfortable with the leather straps but after a few days, I got used to them and they feel very sturdy.
Secondly, the lack of water bottle holder is a good thing. Any added pockets on the outside would ruin the look of the bag.
The laptop sleeve is extremely convenient and there is a thin pocket behind it which is perfect for any documents/books. Overall, the ideal bag for the Indiana Jones on campus/in the city.

- Great pack
- Rating
I have thought about ordering one of these for years. I found myself in Duluth for work and decided to pull the trigger. I hemmed and hawed about the various bags and packs for an hour and a half. I travel extensively and have gone through a lot of laptop bags. This one is great- except for the fit- I'm a big guy (6-2 250) and it fits differently loaded. The straps bother my arm pits. This has never happened before. I am hoping that once the leather breaks in the problem will go away. A little longer strap would be great for larger torso folks. For that one reason it is a 4 and not the 5 I had hoped for.

My husband bought this bag for work and travel. He was able to use it once on a trip before the kids and I stole it for a day care bag. It holds everything they need and more. The front pocket holds all their small stuff(diaper cream,benadryl,socks etc) Our bag is five years old and still looks great. Dad will have to by his own bag, we are not giving it up!

- Great backpack but 2 minor flaws
- Rating
I love this backpack. It is an awesome bag to use for college and trips. The lifetime warranty is a huge plus and was part of the deciding factor when I made this purchase. There are a few things that I would have liked changed though. Firstly, I am worried about the bottom of the bag. It is double lined with canvas but my friend's bag got holes after 2 years of use. Duluth Pack fixed it but she had to use a different bag while that was happening. To solve this, someone suggested I line the bottom with duck tape to make it more durable and to help it support the heavy book load I carry around daily. Secondly, there is no water bottle holder. I don't want to just attach my Nalgene by a caribeaner because then it would bounce around and hit me. I also don't want to put it in the extra pocket because the condensation or if it leaked would get my pencils, calculator, phone, ect. wet. I am thinking of asking Duluth Pack if they can add a canvas pocket to the side if it won't void the lifetime warranty. The awesome things about this backpack are already listed by msv so you can read hers.

- Fantastic Product!!!!!
- Rating
I rated this product a 5 because that's as high as I could go. This laptop backpack deserves a TEN out of five!! It is really fantastic. 1. It is super strong. 2. The laptop sleeve is extremely effective--nicely lined so it is VERY easy to get the laptop in and out. 3. There is a very useful, almost-hidden area behind the sleeve where you can stash a slim travel wallet and not have it easily visible to someone who opens the pack. 4. The classic leather straps and the leather trim give the pack a very attractive look. 5. The zippers are just about the best I have ever seen on any bag anywhere (except other Duluth bags) 6. The main compartment is spacious and the accessory pocket is useful. A simple design that WORKS. GREAT WORK, Duluth!

Having come from the Dacron/Stone age, I'd commented on here how wonderful I thought Martin's 'Hammerhead' strings were; well, they are in comparison to the Dacron Age, I guess. They seemed so stable, I decided a while back to go with a tubeless peep; a peep with NO tube to line it up!? Can't work. Well, the peep is great! But, the string - with probably a thousand shots on it total, three hundred with new peep - has now let the peep turn almost a full half turn. The string loop pulls it about perfectly, though, and, yes, I'll turn the peep around when I get around to it. But, a full strand has broke at the slide and the string is fuzzing at the strangest places; the center serving looks to be shooting loose but not at the nocking point; couple inches below that. 'Fuzzing'; between the peep, through the center serving and to where the STS serving starts, and a couple, three inches up each half of where the cable Y's. The most understandable, and most worrisome, is that the cable slide has evidently worn a strand of the string into. I assume the string can get in a lot worse shape before it's any real worry - the rest all looks brand new - but just reporting on a bit of disappointment.
G5 Meta peep, 1/4 and all what I've read of having a circle within a circle - centering the round sight guard within the peep - works! Kewl, something else new. I don't know why I didn't buy a Fletcher peep; either better in your opinions, cause I need another one? I loved my old Fletcher Hunter rope release, three finger type release, wish I could still use it, so got Fletch Hook upon restarting this hobby. Like it too!
Guess I'd better get a new string set, just to be on the safe side. Can anyone recommend a decent string builder that won't break the bank? {:>)

Hi there, I am looking to upgrade my lens for my Canon EOS 450D to a better model and am interested in either:
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM
Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM*
Now I am willing to spend the money on the lenses but am not sure it's worth it for the 450D model considering the small size frame sensor. I use this camera mainly when travelling for shooting 90% of the time during daylight, dawn or dusk. So I am looking for a decent lens I don't have to take off.
My current lens is the:
Tamron macro AF 18-200 F/3.5-6.3XR Di
This has served me really well, however I have found I don't really need all that zoom and the image quality is not great at the higher zoom.
Anyone have any thoughts. Thanks

We offer two ways to locate information:
Our Robert Mondavi Winery 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon has deep, expressive aromas and flavors of berry and black currant with nuances of mocha, violets and spice. The fruit envelops an elegant structure with firm, velvety tannins and excellent length. The wine's personality comes from the soils and climates of vineyards located in the geographic center of Napa Valley. Fermentation with both native and cultured yeast strains gives layers of nuance to the wine, and extended skin contact intensifies varietal complexity and softens tannins. We aged the wine in French oak château barrels and bottled it without filtration to capture the full flavor profile and lush texture.
We selected the majority of the grapes from the center of Napa Valley, a region well known for producing intensely flavored Cabernet family grape varieties. The balance of sunny days and cool, foggy nights here is perfect for developing rich, complex flavors and velvety tannins in Cabernet Sauvignon. A range of deep, alluvial soils to lean volcanic ones contributes to the diverse flavors in this wine,. We chose 40% of the grapes from the Oakville American Viticultural Area (AVA) including 24% from Robert Mondavi's historic To Kalon Vineyard. We sourced the balance of the grapes primarily from vineyards in Rutherford and Stags Leap District AVAs.
For more than 40 years, Robert Mondavi Winery has been the symbol of Napa Valley. Founded in 1966, it was the first major winery built in Napa Valley in the three decades following the repeal of Prohibition (1933), and went on to establish the foundation for modern California winemaking. Robert Mondavi Winery's mission-styled architecture, with the expansive archway and bell...Read More About Robert Mondavi
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard...Read More About Napa Valley
(cab-uhr-NAY sow-veeh-yawn) King of Red Many refer to Cabernet Sauvignon as the king of red grapes. Perhaps that title is due to its ability to grow worldwide in a number of climates, or to the fact that it produces wine with such character yet such diversity. Either way, this grape is responsible, as a whole or a partner, for some of the greatest wines in the world. In Bordeaux,...Read More About Cabernet Sauvignon

[10-26, 08:58] <Abunja> hello, commander`A. when did i last heard your name? yosuga no sora?
[10-26, 08:33] <fibre> If negative criticism persists, I can imagine Crunchy's PR department putting out a few more, though.
[10-26, 07:42] <fibre> Only 1-3 were planned to be released in an uncensored format via Crunchyroll until (presumably) the end of the season
[10-26, 06:54] <twonline> holy-shit... I thought commander`A dieded long ago.....
[10-26, 06:46] <itachi_1s_alive> here is my isp motto: download as you much as you can, we don't give shit about what, when, where you download. just pay us our monthly shit.
[10-26, 06:37] <shaddrag> Artemix, 4 and 5 weren't as censored apparently, and give CR a couple weeks, at least they're coming through for us, maybe they will release them in 3's.
[10-26, 06:36] <shaddrag> Is that Batman?
[10-26, 06:36] <Artemix> Terra Formas 1-2-3 uncensored are out, how about 4-5-X?
[10-26, 06:17] <commander`A> Knock knock.
[10-26, 05:36] <hazardous> only if unneeded shit isn't attached to it
[10-26, 05:11] <KayP> Google fiber will save us.
[10-26, 04:23] <Robert Franklin> those are the best subs for sao
[10-26, 04:21] <AianSuu> @Robert Franklin, ?
[10-26, 04:20] <Robert Franklin> or pico to chico
[10-26, 04:20] <Robert Franklin> pico
[10-26, 04:20] <Robert Franklin> no
[10-26, 04:20] <Robert Franklin> boku
[10-26, 04:19] <AianSuu> What's the best subs for SAO guys ? :D
[10-26, 04:18] <AianSuu> Hello there :)
[10-26, 04:18] <AianSuu> Hello there :)
[10-26, 04:14] <penguin-fever> chuckk confirmed a FILTHY NORMA. Commencing the destruction of reproductive apparatus.
[10-26, 04:01] <Tysonblast> chuckk a ded
[10-26, 02:58] <penguin-fever> Well guess what ISP I'M on? That's right, Sprint. Yes, it can sustain torrent speeds around 5MB/sec (40mbps)
[10-26, 02:43] <chuckk> ayy
[10-26, 02:35] <Artemix> One lunatic one ice pick... yeah.
[10-26, 02:01] <dilworks> move outside of the USA-- oh wait, all other countries suck too.
[10-26, 01:56] <greatsuplex> >dsl
[10-26, 01:52] <Robert Franklin> or at&t are your choices in 75% of the US
[10-26, 01:24] <Senfu> >Comcast
[10-26, 01:10] <Rin2K> nuke when?
[10-26, 01:01] <MisterDonut> either get a vpn, a seedbox or your own server. ramnode in NL should be enough.
[10-26, 00:55] <sarachikorita> They sell subscriptions.
[10-26, 00:53] <greatsuplex> I mean, that's implying they can do anything after a sixth strike. I'm still pissed that crunchy has the ability to claim when they don't sell.
[10-26, 00:51] <greatsuplex> It's Charter or Comcast in my area. I have the former.
[10-26, 00:50] <cyatek> 'murica
[10-26, 00:50] <MisterDonut> change to an ISP that isnt shit
[10-26, 00:32] <greatsuplex> I received a letter from my isp for torrenting kami nomi s3. Claim was from crunchy. HOW
[10-26, 00:11] <shaddrag> Ya know, they said 6PM PDT, it is NOT 6PM PDT yet, 48 minutes to go.
[10-25, 23:36] <boredatwork> already forgot Jinsei even existed...
[10-25, 22:36] <haseo> its worth to finish watching it
[10-25, 22:32] <ravenleaf182> there are, it's just FFF in my opinion are a rather good group, I quite like their translations and will often wait for them. Again, that particular series just wasn't worth it
[10-25, 22:32] <fibre> Is anyone else able to get Terra Formars uncensored on cruncyroll? The newspost claims it has been up for the last 30 minutes now, but nothing has been released so far.
[10-25, 22:29] <haseo> ah I see, just checked it
[10-25, 22:26] <haseo> are there no subs besides FFF for Jinsei ?
[10-25, 22:26] <ravenleaf182> V in rhetrospect, yes. I just kept thinking it was nice how this guy was in a potential harem like situation but didn't actually do that, and actually seemed to pursue one girl. It was kinda refreshing. Not A+ material, but it was a bit warm hearted compared to other stuff
[10-25, 22:19] <Prazision> Good choice, you probably should've dropped it sooner.
[10-25, 22:10] <ravenleaf182> there is a choice. it was wait or drop, I just dropped it. its not like I dislike them or anything, its just after a month, jinsei itself wasn't that stellar of a series to wait for
[10-25, 22:06] <Prazision> FFF did not drop Jinsei though, they're just late. Be patient, they'll be released eventually.
[10-25, 22:02] <herkz> you say that like you have any choice. there are no other subs.
[10-25, 21:41] <ravenleaf182> Jinsei is like the new mariaholic. I dropped the show, it wasn't worth keeping to wait for FFF. They do good work, but this is the second thing they just dropped that I liked...
[10-25, 21:31] <paulo27ms> herkz, why did you destroy UTW's l@m@s movie? :( y
[10-25, 20:54] <herkz> i have no idea
[10-25, 20:50] <Waifu-Chan> @herkz, Can we expect this episode of Psycho-Pass 2 to be released faster than the last? Thanks.
[10-25, 20:42] <cyatek> why can't i find niconico/gyao stream of terra formars uncesored anywhere? hasn't it been out for a while?
[10-25, 20:34] <ZeroAT> k. :o
[10-25, 20:33] <herkz> nothing
[10-25, 20:32] <ZeroAT> I dont watch Jinsei, but what happened to FFF? o.0
[10-25, 20:19] <NoobSubs> Ohhhh. I was.
[10-25, 20:10] <pky> @Artemix in about 5 hours by CR... Don't know if anyone will rip it, though. HS should, but they haven't stated it officially (or at least I haven't heard about it), so yeah...
[10-25, 20:07] <Artemix> So, Terra Formars's uncensored episodes are going to be released when/by whom?.
[10-25, 20:04] <boredatwork> last time i looked it was like 00:30 - unless you talk about CR
[10-25, 19:54] <NoobSubs> It airs at 9:30. It's not that late.
[10-25, 19:47] <hazardous> a good protection would be to password/pin code tv channel if it offers that feature
[10-25, 19:45] <hazardous> not to mention 6 year old could develop weird fetishes and may turn psychopath when he grows up
[10-25, 19:44] <boredatwork> those kind of shows air at late night in japan. if a 6yr old watches such stuff, then there's something terribly wrong with the family.
[10-25, 19:43] <hazardous> Terraformars can get your hue considerably clouded if you got weak mind.
[10-25, 19:34] <shaddrag> Used to Facebook and like it, most of the time... Could never get into Twitter, I would say why I don't like it but I would run out of characte
[10-25, 19:27] <Robert Franklin> It can't be the responsibility of the artist to stop children from consuming their work and they shouldn't compromise their work because of irresponsible parents.
[10-25, 19:24] <Robert Franklin> You're going to have to do better than the protagonist eating some raw meat if you want to make me blanch.
[10-25, 19:24] <NoobSubs> For that show, it's understandable. I don't think you'd want a 6 year old watching a show with frequent decapitations and brutal killings.
[10-25, 19:23] <Robert Franklin> The new shock anime are fucking nothing anyway. Kite? Genocyber? MD Geist?
[10-25, 19:23] <[TRVE]> Whoa, I just realized I actually missed dilworks with his childish misspelling of the word "government".
[10-25, 19:23] <nitekatt> Japan has its age of consent set to 13. You can screw lolis, legally. God bless that country!
[10-25, 19:19] <SneakiestNEG> I ditched FB for Telegram. Messaging apps are much better than social media.
[10-25, 19:17] <Robert Franklin> Japanese censorship seems to be more about policing the morality of adult consumers.
[10-25, 19:17] <HerbalNekoTea> Twitter's better because you need to be clear and short with 140 caracter, it was a big challenge for me.
[10-25, 19:15] <haseo> still don't understand the point of using twitter or how is it any different than other previous socializing crap
[10-25, 19:12] <SneakiestNEG> Kids shouldn't be watching it anyway. But I know that a lot kf kids have absent parents who just want their children to shut up.
[10-25, 19:10] <SneakiestNEG> Censorship is stupid. Can't handle it? Don't watch it. Simple. You can change channels.
[10-25, 19:07] <Robert Franklin> That's a good idea.
[10-25, 19:05] <dilworks> I hope I'm not the only one who has an actual router-level block for Facebook at home (I did it before $GUBMINT started to fuck up with the censorship down here). Not because of data mining or privacy concerns, but I can't just stand Failbook at all. (Twitter is on the verge - it's marginally useful, but barely)
[10-25, 19:05] <Robert Franklin> I won't speak for anyone else, but I thought Attack on Io was stupid.
[10-25, 19:03] <hazardous> we are anti-social and proud.
[10-25, 19:01] <boredatwork> i bet if they'd have titans instead of cockroaches everyone would talk about how awesome Terra Formars is
[10-25, 18:58] <dilworks> nice, social networking is a cancer anyway.
[10-25, 18:58] <dilworks> > no social network accounts for NT
[10-25, 18:49] <haseo> the only thing that deserves being uncensored is....pantsu desu
[10-25, 18:45] <Robert Franklin> While I agree, crazyivan, it's understandable that people are excited; the show is pointless without the guro.
[10-25, 18:39] <shaddrag> CR has confirmed they're showing it tonight/tomorrow.
[10-25, 18:38] <OneCrazyRussian> Uncensored Terra Formars doesn't matter because it sucks balls
[10-25, 18:07] <HerbalNekoTea> And we still wait for more news about why Naisho got a delay to do episode 15 of PriPara.
[10-25, 18:04] <Jabberwok> Wow, yeah, apparently CR is def getting uncens'd Terra... but seems they can't say when yet.
[10-25, 17:43] <shaddrag> Still 7 more hours until 6PM PDT
[10-25, 17:34] <hazardous> are episodes of Terra Formars uncen now? wasn't CR going to rid censors for 24 hr?
[10-25, 16:52] <haseo> I was wron, PriPara ep 17 is today :D look up
[10-25, 16:42] <paulo27ms> mœ
[10-25, 16:35] <MisterDonut> bad
[10-25, 16:11] <haseo> @Lunarfang7789 prolly tomorrow

No Secrets: Edwardian Rock Crystal Locket
Lockets have always held a special place in the annals of jewelry. Held close to the body, it embraces within a tiny memento of a special event, a photograph of a beloved, a sprig of the hair of a child that is hidden from view or as in this example, for the entire world to see. Captivating when worn, this Edwardian jewel is crafted from clear rock crystal that slightly magnifies whatever it embraces within its two polished cabochon orbs. Yellow gold gilt metal frames the perimeters of each side with one side enhanced with a twisted metal border. Hinged, the locket opens with a push of a clasp and closes securely. Although this style of antique locket was popular from the late 19th century and into the early 20th, its modern design fits in with the look of today.
Condition: Very good; light wear overall as expected with age and use; very light wear to rock crystal itself.
Measurements: 1-1/4 inches (3.0 cm) in length including extra top "O" fitting and 1-1/8 inches (2.6 cm) in length with small top "O" fitting by ¾ of an inch (1.8 cm) in depth.
Date: Circa 1900

I hope they catch them, either a inside job or a very well planned out move. They must know where are the cameras are and such. Could they look at the past tapes to see any suspicious people scouting the area?
Looked like the door was pretty easy for them to open.
I hope they catch them as well. Time to go look on craigs list....lol

Wow it seems like they should have all the serial numbers on file and would be able to track them if activated but I'm not sure if it works like that. These thieves must have been casing the place for a while or it was an inside job.
It has to be an inside job, their is no way the knew where all the camera's were. If they are smart they will get rid of them to another country, or they had a buyer lined up even before they took it.
Definitely an inside job. I agree BB will have all the serial number on file and I am sure Apple can set something in their database to find them when they are plugged into iTunes.
I hate thievery, and I hope that they're caught and prosecuted.
Best Buy should release about 5 huge Pissed-Off dogs inside the store every night.
Dogs are great judges of character, and if your dog doesn't like somebody being around, you shouldn't trust them.
Kind of reminds me of something that happened in 2009 also involving Apple products. Shame, hope those people get caught, but that seems ever so increasingly unlikely.
"The future starts with you; now start posting more!"
The thing about all this is the retail locations are generally cookie cutter setups, and believe me I have wired an opening location for BB, Lowes, BJ's, Costco, Circuit city, Walmart, Sams's, Dollar tree, Dollar General, Target and on and on. I don't really do it anymore but know exactly how they work on large brick and mortar location specifically there are 2-3-5 setups on almost every store. It does not matter though as all you would have to do is either not look up as you know where there going to be in general or wear a hood. The thing with this though was the time. Whoever did it is most likely a professional criminal or it is an inside job by one individual with some professional criminals. The big thing is though as Taylor say's " that seems ever so increasingly unlikely" as it would most likely cost more than the items are worth to catch them and prosecute them.
I'm sure Apple could use the MAC addresses too.
Sounds like an inside job. While it may take more money to catch and prosecute them it still will send out a message that they or future criminals aren't above the law.
At least no one was shot for them. You guys are right that they probably won't catch them and this is just another reason why companies have insurance.
inside job?

or just look for which entire family got iPads this christmas
That's crazy, something like that happened locally where I live at a Best Buy as well with Apple Products.
On a stormy night (as cliche sounding as it is) during hurricane season there was a small tropical storm passing through the city where I live (It's called McAllen on the southernmost tip of Texas an hour away from the the gulf of mexico) the wind and rain and elements of the weather caused a power outage and there was about 200 iPods and Apple products stolen from a Best Buy near my house in a similar fashion to this and the video posted by Taylor Karras.
Although that was more of an opportunistic theft in my opinion, I have to agree with everyone else that this was an inside job or done by professionals who had been scouting out the place for a while
Best Article yet..sound like "The IPad Job"..get it..like The Bank Job..LOL
That sucks. I'm pretty sure Best Buy has insurance for theft cases like this one.
Never stop learning... until you're dead.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Sound like an inside tracked job with a well planned getaway .. I do hope they catch and prosecute them too , but something tells me that the 'loot' was already fenced and sold at this time.Too hot to handle & also not sure if any tracking info from serial numbers will assist with the apprehension of the crooks.
"Don't Panic ! 'cause HH got's your back!"
The real bummer is that stores employ's prob wont get a bonus because of the loss of merchandise.
i wonder if ipads are half off on ebay this week? ;)
Haha - those thieving numnuts (and their 'customers') are sure to get busted once those 125 iPads start connecting to the Internet! "Whatdya mean my new $100 iPad is stolen?!!!"
SPAM-posters beware! ®
This is shocking that the thief could do their job so effectively, but this should serve as a warning to all retailers that 125 of your favorite products might disappear if they are not properly protected. few will forget how they lost over five thousand dollars in merchandise in a only a few hours. It is sad to think that they would steal these items but we look forward to justice and try to trust our tired legal system.
check craigslist or Ebay, lol.
I forgot, but don't Apple devices have a certain ID which Apple is able to lockdown in case it is reported as stolen?
Dang crooks. Get a job!
Reminds me of the heist at an Apple store a while back - carefully planned as well. Craigslist buyers beware - if an offer seems to be too good to be true, it probably is.
I agree check Ebay.
I hope they catch these guys
Why would they keep that many on hand? Seems silly. I work retail, we never keep near that amount on hand of anything valuable... headphones and other small things, but tablets? Maybe a dozen of each and we get more every week :/
If Kojak was alive today he'd probably would've said: "You can't corrupt it. And you know why? Because to corrupt it, you've got to show how corrupt you really are". I guess what he meant was to just send the "Mac" address of the stolen products to the manufacturer in "Californy or China" and disable them remotely. They can also use the GPS to locate the devices, or simply activate the cameras and take a snap shot or video of the people using the stolen iPads and put them on some TV show.
MayhemMatthew, I'm sure Best Buy would sell more than a dozen of each model iPad every week. It's still the most popular tablet, and they probably ended up ordering more stock as the Christmas rush began. When buying gifts, people don't like to hear "we're sold out."
I dont think i would go to jail for an ipad or 125 of them. Now a 125 Transformer primes now thats something to risk years in jail or possibly prison. (jk)
Why can't people just stop stealing??
a smarter thief would have waited a month before doing a heist. most retail security DVRs keep data for up to a month before deleting and recycling. some older tape systems would actually reuse takes after two weeks. most would ask how they did it, i only want to know why? who would want to steal an ipad, they're junk anyway.

Be careful what you write when you're young and idealistic.
In 2003, David Wolfe, a lawyer who works alongside Cherie Blair at top London human rights shop Matrix Chambers, decided he was unhappy with the way the British legal hierarchy works. So he co-signed an open letter criticising the Queen's Counsel (QC) system –- a process that sees a handful of barristers (British trial lawyers) promoted to the elite QC rank each year, enabling them to charge clients more money. "The QC system cannot be justified as being in the public interest or promoting competition," the letter stated.
Nine years on, and last week Wolfe found himself made up to QC — an honour which, despite the name, involves no input from the Queen or her family members. He didn't decline. Indeed, all QCs have to actively apply in order to gain the title. Unfortunately for Wolfe, someone mentioned his youthful letter to RollOnFriday, a widely read U.K. legal blog.
When contacted about the letter, Wolfe responded….

Graduating from high school and pursuing a productive adulthood is one of the more significant transitions faced by adolescents. Indicator 14, also known as the the post school outcomes data collection, provides an opportunity for States and public education agencies (PEAs) to determine if youth with disabilities are positively engaged (i.e., enrolled in postsecondary education/training or employed) once they leave high school.
