Overview Reviews Details Articles & Videos by Ralph Graves Imagine walking into your home after a long day, pulling your iPhone® out of your pocket, selecting your favorite song, and hearing it fill the room. It's possible with the Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air powered speaker system. The G-17's Apple AirPlay compatibility makes it an important part of your home wireless network. It can wirelessly connect with any Wi-Fi®-enabled device that uses iTunes® such as an iPod touch, laptop, or iPhone. And because AirPlay can support multiple speaker systems simultaneously, you can have two or more G-17 Airs in different rooms all playing music from your computer, for example. In iTunes, you can choose songs and playlists, select your speakers and adjust each speaker system's volume independently. You can pick your songs from your iPod touch as you walk through your home and have your choices play in every room. Or watch a movie on your iPad with the soundtrack cranking through the G-17. Breath-taking sound from a very small system The compact G-17 Air delivers a full-bodied sound that belies its small size. Klipsch build amazingly efficient and highly responsive speakers that reproduce sound with minimal distortion. The built-in speakers include a pair of 3/4" aluminum tweeters with Klipsch's famous Tractrix® horn technology for highs that are clear, detailed, and dynamic. Two 2-1/2" long-throw woofers provide solid mids and surprisingly punchy bass, thanks in part to a precisely tuned, flared port. Each driver is powered by its own amp, so the sound stays crisp and clean when you crank it up and you'll want to, once you hear this system in action. A sophisticated look to match the sound Go ahead show off your speakers. The G-17's wafer-thin grille is attached magnetically, so its easy to remove and there's nothing but smooth surface underneath. The injection-molded polymer cabinet presents a sleek profile and has a handsome high-gloss black finish. You can place the G-17 on its tinted, tempered glass base. Or mount it on the wall the cabinet has keyhole slots in the back. From the review Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air: Slim profile, big sound and AirPlay to boot! "Horn-loaded speakers have a characteristic sound, and it's one I like. I'm impressed that the G-17 Air could deliver highly detailed sound from speakers contained in a cabinet so small. Most of my iTunes library is made up of lossless files, and there seemed to be nothing lost in the transmission from computer (or smartphone) to speaker. The Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air wireless speaker system is a great choice for someone with limited space, but who doesn't want to compromise with audio quality."

Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air is Exceptionally Good Written By Wayne, Pittsburgh, PA on Thursday, February 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This product is outstanding. Superior sound quality, easy to use, attractive styling. It very easily fills a large room with full sound at modest volume. Treble, mid range and bass are each excellent. Pros: Outstanding sound quality. Extraordinary bass for its design and form factor, without overwhelming or obscuring pure mid range and treble sound. Great appearance. Very easy to set up and use. Cons: None 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Speaker Written By DKL, Buffalo NY on Sunday, December 30, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a great speaker. The sound is strong but not house-shaking (which is what we wanted). Setup took less than 10 minutes and was as easy as advertised, both for our main laptop but also for an iPhone and an iPad. Pros: Setup, ease of operation and quality of sound. Cons: None that I can think of! 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Some Troubles Written By Librarian, Atlanta, GA on Monday, December 10, 2012 The sound is good of course, but (as with every other electronic device I own and use -- what else is new?) it is unpredictable. In this case it drops a great song and replaces it with silence for several interminable seconds, then starts again. Perhaps I need to ask my service for a more powerful wireless signal. But I am pretty resigned to the gaps. It is better than the Sonos 5 it replaces; that one would not agree with my wireless signal at all, even with consultation [spell-checker just suggested "consolation"] from Crutchfield (no resolution) and Sonos itself (technician roamed around my desktop trying everything he could, though nothing worked). That device stole several hours from my life. The two lessons for purchasers of any device of this kind are simple: it will be difficult to set up, and don't count on it working. I miss my old speakers. I miss my wires in the crawlspace. I even miss my KLH from forty-five years ago, but I think that may have nothing to do with anything other than a wish for a simpler time and fewer choices. Pros: Sleek looking, small, good sound when not inexplicably silent Cons: Sometimes inexplicably silent, less than easy to set up 2 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Love This Unit Written By Ron E, Missoula, MT on Wednesday, August 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my first experience with any product from Klipsch. The G-17 is outstanding, everything I could have hoped for. I use the G-17 outdoors on my very, very, large deck and the sound is superb. I am completely satisfied with this unit. Pros: Compact, easy to move around. Great sound! Easy to set-up with my airport extreme. Cons: None. Was this review helpful? Yes No Klipsch® Gallery G-17 Air Written By Michael, Wa on Monday, August 06, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Amazing sound for such a little system! Would be great if AirPlay on the system worked like appletv. In other words, even better/more connectivity beyond iTunes. Pros: Easy to setup Great sound Cons: Remote control is cheap! Surface is a dust magnet. LCD would be nice for interface. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Unique Product. Great Sound Written By PTC, Knoxville, TN on Wednesday, February 01, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound. Plug it in. Run through the setup, which is straightforward and fairly simple...and enjoy. Works great with airplay, which is how i usually play music through the speaker. The only problem is that the Klipsch remote does not always work the controls (volume, next, pause, etc...) for iTunes on my computer. It works when I airplay from my iPad or iPod...go figure? Pros: Looks cool. Sounds great. Is cool! Cons: control of iTunes using remote is not consistent. 6 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Looks Good / Sounds Average Written By Mario, Indiana on Wednesday, January 04, 2012 I had high hopes for this, I couldn't wait to unwrap it and place it on the wall in my new office. The power block kinda took the wind out of my sails, then the weird base glitch, maybe a Q/A issue. I am by no means an overly picky audiophile, but just to throw this out here, the pair of Logitech Z10 USB speakers I have been using for the past years sadly blew the G-17 out of the water. Shocking really. Disappointing. My G-17 went back to Crutchfield today, for that price I expected solid sound not just a pretty technology spiced gadget. Sound appeared to be better at levels too loud to listen to while working, so maybe this would be a hit at a party. Try for yourself and see if it suits you better than it did me! Pros: Airplay support built in. Design is amazing and very contemporary. Setup is a breeze. Cons: Stand base was misaligned to front of speaker, looked faulty and cheap, plus it's not adjustable at all. External power block (maybe mentioned in the description), basically ruins mounting the unit on the wall directly in front of an outlet. Sound is, sadly, neither a room filling audio experience, neither feels much stereophonic. In fact it felt like I was hearing more music with my left ear and the highs were not really there at all. 12 out of 14 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No excellent overall Written By markstout, New York on Sunday, December 25, 2011 Great sound. Great utility. Pros: this is a gorgeous speaker with superb sound and the simple and flexible wifi system set up i was seeking. I set it up last night to stream some christmas music from my ipad. I was able to use both accuradio (airplay enabled) and pandora. For some reason i can only get pandora to stream to the g-17 after i have set the output to the unit from accuradio. Weird but i dont see an airplay icon in the pandora app. Cons: I have had a few instances of dropping signal for a sec. And today it droped altogether oncebwhile streaming pandora. I think the intermittent dropping was due to wifi net work load. Not cool. 2 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The Klipsch G-17 Air provides audio streaming from your iTunes account on your computer or Apple iOS device via your home's wireless WiFi network.Other options to connect an audio device include a USB input for direct digital connection charging of most 30-pin Apple devices and a 3.5 mm analog input that can accept almost any music player available.The G-17 Air employs Klipsch's famous horn-loaded technology for incredible detail and clarity. The Klipsch G-17 Air features a sleek, minimalist cabinet design with a high-gloss piano black finish and can be wall-mounted or table-top mounted. Note: AirPlay requires your PC or Mac computer to be running iTunes 10.1 or later and iPod touch (2nd/3rd/4th gen), iPhone (3GS/4/4S), iPad (1/2) with iOS 4.2 or later. The G-17 Air and your AirPlay audio source must be connected to the same wireless network via a WiFi (802.11b/g) router or hub. Speaker Technology 4 Klipsch Principles: Klipsch believed four principles to be the foundation for great sound. Together, these four design principles (high efficiency with low distortion, controlled directivity, flat frequency response, and wide dynamic range) have and always will be the foundation for Klipsch stunningly powerful and precise sound. Bi-Amplified Power: The G-17 Air is powered by separate, high-quality, digital amplifiers for each driver - 10 watts x 2 channel for high frequencies and 20 watts x 2 channel for low frequencies. Stereo Tractrix Horns Mated to Titanium Compression Tweeters: The G17 Air provides legendary Klipsch dynamic sound from proprietary Tractrix Horn technology that reproduces amazing, lifelike sound from a compact speaker system. The Klipsch G17 Air is fitted with two 0.75" aluminum diaphragm compressions drivers (tweeters) mated to 90º x 90º square Tractrix Horns. The dual 0.75" solid-formed, very lightweight, aluminum diaphragms work in conjunction with precise phasing plugs at the horn throats to create highly efficient drivers with excellent transient response and lack of distortion. Long-Throw Injection Molded Graphite Woofers: The Klipsch G-17 Air employs dual 2.5" long-throw IMG woofers with light, yet very stiff diaphragms matched with large motor structures, designed for maximum controlled excursion that combine with a precisely tuned port to reproduce tight and balanced bass. Enclosure Design Decor Friendly Design: The Klipsch G-17 Air's elegant, injection molded polymer cabinet has a front baffle that curves on both sides to create both an attractive design and a solid, low-resonance structure. The unique, twelve-step cabinet finishing process achieves a sleek, high-quality, piano black high gloss luster that blends well with almost any decor. Bass Reflex Enclosure: The Klipsch G-17 Air features a bass reflex enclosure with a side-firing port for deeper bass and higher efficiency. The side-firing port is perfectly matched with the cabinet and woofers, precisely flared to minimize turbulence and distortion, and positioned to be fully functional wherever the speaker system is placed or mounted. Frameless, Acoustically Invisible Grille: With the thinnest grille ever to come from Klipsch (1/2" the thickness of a credit card), the sound from the G-17 Air is equally detailed, and the look equally elegant, with the grille on or off. With it off the high gloss appearance and fine lines of the speaker are preserved due to the lack of visible fasteners on the speaker baffle made capable by a unique magnetic grille rod attachment. Audio Sources AirPlay Compatible: AirPlay lets you use your home's wireless Wi-Fi network (802.11 b/g), to easily stream music in high quality Apple Lossless sound directly from your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad capable of running iOS 4.2 to the G-17 Air without wires or having to dock your device. You can also stream your iTunes music from your Mac or PC to one, or even multiple, G-17 Air units in your home, taking advantage of a simple and efficient new method of creating a whole house audio system. iTunes Streaming: The Klipsch G-17 Air is able to play audio from your computer's iTunes account wirelessly (WiFi) using AirPlay streaming technology. When connected to the same network as a computer running iTunes, the G-17 Air can appear as an output option in the pop-up menu at the bottom of the iTunes window. You can then browse your iTunes collection on your computer and stream music to the G-17 Air. To use this feature you need a Mac or Windows-based PC running iTunes (10.1 or later) connected to the same wireless (WiFi) network. Apple Device Streaming: AirPlay also lets you wirelessly stream music and music apps stored on your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad to the G-17 Air. So there's no need to dock your Apple device, unless you want to charge it. You will need to download the Klipsch Air app from the Apple app store. This feature works with iPod touch (2nd/3rd/4th gen), iPhone (3GS/4/4S), and iPad (1/2) with iOS 4.2 or later - connected to the same wireless network. Note: The G-17 Air and your AirPlay audio source must be connected to the same wireless network via a WiFi (802.11b/g) router or hub. USB Port: The Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air will also charge and play your Apple iPod, iPhone, or iPad through the unit's USB (type-A) port at the rear of the unit, using the USB/iPod dock connector cable that came with your Apple device. The unit's USB port supports audio playback, basic remote control, and charging of your connected iPod, iPhone, or iPad.

garage Elevator Man lift project
Willy yes thanks for the PM/apology!
I also apologize for any "rudeness"
I am trying to learn; in professional forums such as this one where there is a wealth of knowledge!
You assume I will "small size MIG" stick everything together...
I know for structural it should and will be welded by stick 7014/7018; yes I do have a stick welder AC/DC 225/150 and although not CWB certified I have built many trailers, repaired equipment without failures. I tend to overbuild things.
Anyway thanks for the helpful replies so far!

To help or not to help
It is easy to understand why guys making a living out of welding are reluctant about elevators.
Not having enough of murphy's law, newton's law plus human factor have to be added when elevators are the topic.
Add to that building codes, safety, insurances etc... you have the perfect thing to stay away from.
However we all seen one somewhere and it is possible to make one , make a lot of research and have the proper electrical and mechanical protections good design and some more stupid proofing combined with over load/travel protection and...ahhhhh get a hoist ;o)

The HELIOS ENDO Hospital in Hamburg is Europe's largest specialist centre for bone, joint and spinal surgery. Every year the HELIOS ENDO medical staff help restore mobility to more than 6,700 people. All these patients, many of whom come from abroad, are happy to put their trust in the hospital's team of highly skilled doctors and nurses. Senior consultant Professor Thorsten Gehrke is a specialist in single-stage prosthesis replacements, a form of treatment recommended for cases of artifi cial joint infection.
Patients who need a hand or shoulder operation, have injured their spine or require surgery on their foot or knee will find specialists for every limb and spinal disorder – many of whom are internationally recognised experts – in the Centre for Musculoskeletal Surgery at the Vivantes Humboldt Hospital, Berlin. Doctors even use grafting techniques to rebuild nerves damaged in complicated injuries.
The Vivantes Hospital for Internal Medicine-Cardiology and Conservative Intensive Care specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease and lung disease. Furthermore, patients suffering from a range of internal conditions can be monitored, diagnosed and treated at its conservative intensive care unit. Every year, the department treats more than 5,500 patients in its medical wards and around 1,600 patients in its intensive care unit.
For Dr Roberto Spierer precision is everything – and it has to be. He does, after all, perform operations as a plastic surgeon and hand surgeon, often working with a microscope. In the following interview he talks about how he restores damaged nerves and how plastic surgery can help victims of accidents to achieve a better quality of life. In the Department for Hand, Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery at the Vivantes Auguste-Viktoria Hospital, operations are performed both on German and international patients.
The Department of Special Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology at the Vivantes Auguste-Viktoria Hospital, Centre for Endoprosthetics, is a nationally and internationally renowned department for the replacement of artificial joints, in particular for the hip and knee.
Ulm University Hospital is both an innovator and a partner in the healthcare field, offering specialist departments, institutes, central services, numerous interdisciplinary centres and a total of around 1,130 beds. As a university hospital, it provides patients with top-level, cross-departmental medical care that brings treatment and research together.
Heart attacks and diabetes are common conditions in Germany. However, few people are aware of the close connection between cardiac problems and diabetes mellitus type 2.

Dalai Lama says Tibetans who commit suicide are not crazy
Examiner.com: There has been a great deal of sadness among Buddhists over the continued wave of self-immolations by Tibetans protesting repressive Chinese rule. China has blamed these self-immolations on the Dalai Lama whom Beijing claims is a trouble maker. His Holiness the Dalai Lama says this is not true, but that he is concerned about the real reasons behind the self-immolations. On April 12, 2013, the Tibet Sun reported, Tibetans who commit suicide 'not crazy': Dalai Lama.
During a visit to Italy this week the Dalai Lama said that Tibetans who have committed suicide in recent weeks were "not crazy" but were taking desperate…

Big thanks to Tim Anderson for taking the action shots.
Step 1: Cut Your Stencil
The low-tech version would be to print out the design in reverse, tape it to cardboard, and go nuts with a box cutter or Xacto blade. But that's another story for another Instructable and you're smart and clever enough to figure it all out, right?
After you've made your cuts, put all the pieces back together. This is how you're sure the placement is right.
If you want, you can cut thinner cardboard or even card stock. Cereal boxes work pretty well and who doesn't want to dig through the extra massive bag of Cheerios?
I forgot to mention it in the instructable, but another use for this is to help secure long peninsulas. Spray enough times and the cardboard or card can get a bit soggy and droop a bit. Wires provide the extra support until you can afford to get a stencil custom cut from masonite. These guys can cut a piece for you. Costs money, but if it's out of the hardboard it should last forever. Cutting the same design over and over on flimsy stock gets old.
hey. my first post as a new member.if you use plastic cardboard (available after any locol election,ask first ,the people with them in thier yards will let you have them for free)insted of paper and your stencil will last long enough for you to get tired of painting things.i love this site,you guys are increadable.but i think some of you have waaaay too much time on your hands,lol.

Gonorrhoea is caused by a type of bacteria which loves to live in warm, moist areas of the body like the vagina, cervix, urethra, rectum and the throat.
Through having vaginal, anal or oral sex without using a condom. Or sharing sex toys if you don't wash them or cover them with a condom each time they're used.
What are the symptoms?
In women:
· An unusual vaginal discharge which may be thin or watery, yellow or greenish
· Pain when urinating
· Infection in the rectum or the eyes
· Infection in the throat – you might not even know you have it!
· Lower abdominal pain or tenderness
· Bleeding between periods or heavier periods
In men:
· White, green or yellow discharge from the penis that may stain your underwear
· Infection in the rectum or the eyes
· Infection in the throat – you might not even know you have it!
· Pain or tenderness in the testicles
· Sometimes inflammation of the foreskin
How can you get rid of it?
The STI clinic will carry out a few painless tests and give treatment. Early gonorrhoea can be cured with a course of antibiotics. Your partner should also be treated to avoid re-infection.
To help avoid getting one at all – use a condom!

I believe this is one of those you either like it or hate it recipes. I made this a couple weeks ago as directed however I left the salsa out because of my picky son. We all liked it! My husband and I added crushed tortilla chips, salsa, and extra sour cream on top. We both took leftovers to work the next day and it heated up great! I am going to remake this tonight but increase the amount of meat to 1.5-2 lbs. I'm also going to add onion to the meat when cooking and throw in some black beans.

A true classic for any football fan! This spectacular poster features one of the most memorable and beautiful works of art ever commissioned by the NFL. This is the official commemorative design of the 75th Anniversary of the league, painted by the legendary Merv Corning (1926-2006), who was the NFL's official artist of the era. With a vintage-style background and a weathered league logo, the design gives you a look at the style of ball-carrying offensive players from the earliest days of the NFL, and from the contemporary period of the 1990s. With the official 75th Anniversary logo, and the title "Seventy Five Years Strong", this is both a spectacular work of sports art for your wall, and a rare collector's item for the future! Published by the short-lived football art firm Front Row Collectibles, very few of these posters made it into fans' hands, and nearly the entire print run sat untouched in a Bay-Area warehouse for more than a decade before we acquired them for our customers. The perfect way to add a unique touch to your home, office, bar, or clubhouse!

Collaboration between science centers, schools and industry are vital to filling the STEM pipeline with a comprehensive approach from cradle to career.

|Let's Talk...But Not About Turkey!
Let's talk turkey…. Just kidding, let's talk anything but turkey. By now you are overwhelmed by turkey day leftovers, which find their way into just about every dish this time of year. There's turkey chili, turkey tacos, turkey tamales. I'm waiting for someone to develop a recipe for turkey pancakes. So, let's get off the turkey trot and dance to another tune. I'm talking BBQ. I know its winter for most of us, there's snow on the ground for some and few leaves left on the trees. That's why I am suggesting we bring a bit of BBQ into the kitchen to brighten up these shorter days and longer nights.
During the winter months we tend to stew and braise; and there's nothing wrong with that. I love a great beef stew with chunks of beef chuck or slow braised lamb shanks whose fat melts into the sauce and the meat luxuriously falls off the bone. But it's during these cold winter days ahead that a touch of summer can enliven our kitchen and our mood. No need to ignore some great cuts of meat that we generally grill or slather in BBQ sauce, just because the grill is covered and the basting brush is hibernating. Here are a couple of my favorite indoor BBQ dishes; feel free to slip on a pair of flip flops, pour a glass of lemonade and get your grill on.
Brisket is everyone's favorite holiday dish evoking memories of grandma, glazed carrots and Lipton onion soup. Well, I like to take brisket to another level and bring out its natural juiciness by bathing it in a spicy barbecue sauce. This is a perfect dish for a game day Sunday for a large crowd, as the brisket can be pulled apart and served up sloppy joe style on soft rolls. I've taken the shredded meat and used it to stuff dumplings, or tossed it with pasta for a barbecue brisket ragu. It starts off the night before with a gentle rub and then slow cooks all day long. It's the perfect antidote to typical braised brisket without losing any of the wonderful texture and flavor that we look to brisket for. I'm a 2nd cut fan, in love with the fatty cap that helps lubricate the meat while it slowly cooks, but you can certainly buy first cut if lean is your thing. You sacrifice a little moistness, but it's your call.

Korean Kalbi Ribs. Nothing says summer like ribs, whether you choose those mammoth ribs from the standing rib roast section of the animal, or meaty flanken (short ribs). Here's a quick rib recipe, which brightens up a cold winter's day. Bring a touch of Asian spice to the table with a cabbage slaw, or hot bowl of miso soup. If you have a ribbed grill pan or indoor grill, that's great, if not, your broiler will do just fine.
The trick to getting these just right is having your butcher cut the ribs very thin. You'll want to choose flanken from the chuck and have them cut 1/2-1/4-inch thick.

Since it's owned I say go ahead and try to copy the drive and see if that fixes it. If not then just get the DVR replaced since you'll be losing the recordings anyway.
The computer wouldn't recognize the drive. Called DTV. They are sending a receiver.
If you get it replaced, make sure it is listed as "owned". I usually call the Access Card folks a couple days after I activate an owned HR and, most of the time, I have to argue about my ownership of that HR. If I activate it thru the Access Card team, it usually is listed as owned. If a Tech (we actually have a couple of Techs in our area) activates it, it usually comes up as "leased".
Here's the direct number for the Access Card department: 877-887-7994.
Awesome. Thanks for the direct number.

Since the beginning of industrialization there has been the post office. Few decades later, then came the telephone. Before that there was Wire services with ITT. Seems like yesterday, when I was a young professional. Even then with the urshering of the digital age, I wondered why the Post Office and ITT did not lead this age with ATT. Since, it is an unstated view that the Federal Government with the Army and private support from inventors and states, seems to me like you would have taken your money upfront and ran like the fastest Olympian with all that cash you could be hauling.
You see, everybody with an eye or two that can see, and a ear or two that can hear would make the normal leap of faith that you just merely had to state your sponsorship of the Internet with FCC and the electronics industry you could be hauling maybe up to one third of all disposable dollars.
Dispite what the smartest lawyers would do, you need the special kind; the attorney to get your loot stuffing everybody's pocket right about now.
Think about it. The ach is a wire transfer or whatever.... never mind do not get into this debate. Just bill them in the form of a lawsuit. Each and every internet carrier or whomever has taken an unlawful slice of the pie.
Now, I pay my bills electronically; but for two hundred even three hundred years I paid my bills via the mail. Note, everybody even left you a calling card. Get em for infringement on the post office. Make up your own e-mail software, and clock the stuff like it was your only form of income. Meter the stuff, add some do-dads, make a pretty little screen, and I meet you at the cash register with all the loot I know I have been squandering waiting for you guys to get the stuff in gear. The internet is major commerce. I must have spent at least 500 a year for years just fooling around on Ebay.
Enforce those no-compete contracts, give UPS the boot where you can, and get your dough upfront. (Note: To impressionable people - do not use my tone or vernacular and take it slow do your research and shot to kill (pink slip, demotions, the whole gamut is ready to be taken down it could fall within 48 hours if you do it right; oh yeah- you'll need your own home grown product just link your software to the mail - whatever (now I'm getting into something I never thought about, you figure it out) any nay-sayers right up front: stonewall take no prisoners until you get your income tell congress how much loot the bad guys took over 30 years and look forelorn, I've got my money right here waiting for you to come to your senses and demand your money.)
Now, I do not speak in these terms even vaugely as a real person. When I use this diction it is to spot light that if you do not get your income corrected, then it's the kind of body that will walk around unfortunately with your income, unearned, and unjustified. So, now I have many mail boxes, I just want one; the one with your Trademark on it. I do not want anybody to touch my stuff, and I want to pay you to keep it for me. Then, I want you to do your studies and tell me how much the service costs. Then I want all my stuff, that you say I can, under your email identifier for all kinds of wonder full statistics and studies. I want all the federal protections you got on my E-mail, and for you to monitor thieves with those protections. I want you to have my stuff, with or without my knowledge to prosecute any and all illegal activities in-state, interstate, and foreign.
But,I want Federal protection on my name and the other contents unless it can be used to show whatever where eve; These are the terms. And, best of all I want you to charge stamp fees when I send messages for business intent, e.g. to pay a bill, to send money, to buy stuff on the internet.
You (USPS) and the Federal Government will probably have enough money left over to fully fund "Feeding America" a favorite charity of mine and pay retiree benefits. What are you waiting for, only money grubbers not from the USA/Canada will jump you. Heh, heh, you should do this for all those stock transactions for individuals also; everybody needs to pay into this one. You could replace Verizon's email client and leave all that other stuff alone, for instance, phone products, and get it rolling. Grab AOL and few others, and all the trollers will stop spending money that is not theirs.
That should stop all those damn virus people flat on their kisters. You'll save the country and need Congress and States to buy in. But, uh, if you can, send a bill that shoyuld get everybody in the mood, if they think someone has their money like they took it from the treasury it does. Oh, yikes, I forgot to tell you my nickname "Troubles" not as in "Bubbles".
"The most significant hurdle to further eCommerce growth is online payment. Fearing identity theft, consumers are reluctant to share personal financial information on the web."
I proposed using the 7-11 Japan model, oh eleven years ago in an ideas program...
I hope this gets more interest now, due to the revenue shortfalls...
How can the usps look to the future when they are shackled to such inefficient procedures in the present? For instance, how much money does the usps waste each year printing zero cost labels and receipts for pre-paid international priority packages? While I applaud the effort to make sure people are paying the proper postage, its utterly stupid to burn 2 $0.00 cost postage labels and a foot long receipt to justify the clerks time doing the work the customer already did. Until the USPS learns how to escape the present the future is nothing more than a pipe dream.
What are you people thinking? Dude, we move physical mail. Keep it at that. Don't sell stuffed bunnies, chocolate bars, or try to be an internet service. The USPS OIG needs to go catch crooks. We will always be needed as long as we don't screw it up! That's it. Back to basics. Keep it simple.
Guy Nohrenberg
Great! More things we can't afford to do that won't make enough money to cover the jobs that it creates for people to make spreadsheets to send to post offices to show how bad they are NOT making their goals--show middle managers can be further harrassed about MORE things. Can we just get rid of the things that don't work already? What is the purpose of EXFC measurement and paying testers to drop mail if offices are required to transport a 44 cent letter hundreds of miles "just in case" it "might be" a test letter? Why pay for VOE surveys if managers fear retribution for low scores and the scores do nothing to change the work environment? The s#!@ always runs down hill. Any new program you implement, someone will make it appear as if it is the greatest ever, but at what cost?
I feel like not enough marketing is going to the core clients/business customers of the USPS and if the USPS would market these areas then the market for business and shipping would grow. The USPS has to take the in your face approach when it comes to training their city carriers on how to "sell" their products to their customers and must train their staff in how to address and communicate these options for the customers they communicate with.
USPS cannot expect to even stay in business if they do not improve their delivery and customer service. I have had numerous packages lost and/or delayed in delivery. Some of the mail carriers/package delivers are functionally illiterate and incompetent. They are unable to read the names and information on an address label or get their work done appropriately.
USPS needs to really step it up when it comes to delivering the product. If not, they will surely go out of business. The digital question is MOOT in my opinion, until the work staff is efficient and competent.
This proposal assumes the public wants a govt email address tied to their physical address - WRONG!
This proposal assumes all have access to computers & skills needed for emailing - WRONG!
This proposal refers to serving "unbanked" members of the public - these people don't have a bank account, it is also likely that they also are not computer literate!
Bad idea & reeks of "big brother". The proposal isn't UNIVERSAL SERVICE, it is elite service to those who have computers & computer skills. What about the poor, the elderly, those who aren't tech savvy?
I believe NIST, National Institute Standards and Technology, another federal agency, would be an excellent resource and great partner for the development of eMAILBOX --- which I think should be one of the core strategies for the Postal Service to carry out its Universal Mail Service obligation moving forward. Has anyone from the Postal Service or your office reached out to with Have any one from your office? If not, perhaps you could recommend that the USPS should at least explore that option with best of the best technology and information security experts rather than put the idea on a backburner as "defensive" strategy.
I do see a need for "electronic cash." Online businesses that offer "prepaid cards" wouldn't be doing so if the costs of making and distributing the cards wasn't cheaper than Visa/MasterCard processing fees. To me, it seems they need an alternative so badly that they're willing to pay for and implement one themselves.
And I do see an opportunity for the USPS to leverage having a storefront in every town to be able to push this.
But I'm personally not sure the USPS could pull it off. I still remember the quiet death of Pay@Delivery.
I don't think that the USPS could ever successfully implement an e-mail system. Why would people pay to send e-mails when they could send them for free at Hotmail or Yahoo etc. Adopting advertising would corrupt the integrity of the USPS because now citizen's security would be compromised. The USPS would be under the mercy of its commercial supporters, and not the consumers.
There is also a large degree of distrust between the American people and its government right now. Corruption, lies, cover-ups. Every law enforcement body, without warrant or merit, would be accessing and reading people's mail secretly and without notice. As such is the climate in America today.People aren't afraid because of them breaking any laws, but because they're being publicly ostracized for their non-conformist thinking and views. Because there exists a possibility, that a non-identifiable person with access could use private information to black mail citizens, steal ideas, or marketable concepts. Because they could and it would be hard to prove.
How will you protect citizens from ID theft? Have them scan birth certificates, Driver's licenses, or Social Security Cards? Now you just created an online target filled with those sensitive documents for theives. What if ID thieves create these accounts using stolen credentials before the actual citizens sign up for them? How will a citizen then be able to lay claim to that name and address? Months of paperwork and expensive court litigation to prove you're Jhon Smith and should have that mail address. Because I assume it won't be long before the credit bureaus have unprecidented access to these databases of citizens in order to cut down on Identity theft and this will make the accounts both necessary and a target. I consider it a severe security risk. Credit Bureaus are the number one biggest leakers of personal information. Anyone can get a report on anyone. Now they have access to whatever documents or security tokens you will require in order to sign up and use your e-mail system. That information clerk making minimum wage at Experian can now secretly sell that to whoever they choose. And the USPS doesn't have any control over it.
Sure I'm speculating. But if its possible, its a problem. Because that means someone will try and take advantage of the system down the road and many people will suffer for it.
I would like to know why in Chicago if there are new opening for employment,for clerk, mailhandler, etc and u have already pass the postal test why do u have to take it again. If there are opening in these areas why not pull people who already pass the test so they can be hired. It doesn't make since to take the same test again when u have people in line waiting for these jobs and u are telling them they must take the test all over again because the is something new. So what hire US, we been on the waiting list two years or more now because it something new we have to take the test again and that's fair. Can somebody look into this.
These are all good ideas. I've been pitching them for three years. People before me have pitched them as far back as 1981 when USPS invented e-mail but was blocked from entering the business commercially.
If you want to see what USPS is capable of, let the company operate like a real company and give it some flexibility to decide products and services on their own as well as prices. We have the integrity to help small and medium businesses succeed and be an enabler and not a monopoly in every opportunity.
Have regulatory oversight but limit what the PRC can do. Right now, our hands are tied. We have plenty of good ideas on the table but no authority or approval to execute them. Let us calculate our own risks. We're the nation's second largest company. I think we could be trusted to make smart decisions.
Yes, I think that the Postal Service has a role in the digital age. I think I'll use these applications. In my opinion it is very important to use it in work.
Good article, thanks.

text: News from the Heights If you need more information, call Le Moyne's Office of Communications at 315-445-4555 or contact via email Joe Della Posta or Molly McCarthy. Read past issues of the magazine Le Moyne College Names Dr. Martha Grabowski as McDevitt Endowed Chair in Information SystemsSYRACUSE, N.Y. (For Immediate Release) … Le Moyne College has named Martha Grabowski, Ph.D., to the inaugural McDevitt Chair in Information Systems. Prior to her appointment as McDevitt chair, Dr. Grabowski served as professor and chair of the business administration department and director of the information systems program at Le Moyne. "Dr. Grabowski's experience, expertise and drive is simply extraordinary," said Le Moyne Provost Linda LeMura, Ph.D. "The institution and our students will benefit immensely through her work and the research she will conduct as McDevitt chair. We are thrilled that Dr. Grabowski will take on this vital role at the College." As chair, Dr. Grabowski's research will focuses on some of the newest frontiers of large-scale system research, from infrastructure challenges in the Arctic, to the use of social media in extreme warning systems such as tsunamis and hurricanes, to the development of predictive models for disaster prevention and response systems, financial cybersecurity, and global marine transportation safety. The chair that Dr. Grabowski holds is made possible through a $50 million endowment that was bestowed upon Le Moyne in 2008 through the estate of Bob and Kay McDevitt, longtime friends of the College. The endowment also will support chairs in computer science, religious philosophy and physics, and will endow professorships, as well as fund related staff, research, technology and overhead costs. In addition, it will support the new McDevitt Center for Creativity and Innovation. Grabowski will serve as chair of a National Academies policy study assessing needs and requirements for oil spill response in the Arctic, and is serving on another National Academies planning committee for a workshop in October 2012 that is addressing ship navigation challenges in the Arctic. Much of Grabowski's research centers on developing understandings of how large-scale high reliability systems of people, organizations and technology behave, particularly those that are complex and geographically distributed. Examples include studying how social media can mobilize large masses of people in harm's way in very short time periods during a tsunami, as well as during longer warning events, such as hurricanes; and modeling large-scale systems to prevent disruptions in disaster prevention and response settings, in global logistics and supply chains, and in financial cybersecurity systems. Grabowski holds a doctoral degree in management/information systems, a master's degree in business administration and a master's degree in industrial engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; she earned a bachelor's degree in marine transportation from the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. She is a former licensed deck officer in the U.S. merchant marine and a retired lieutenant commander in the U.S. Naval Reserve. #####posted on: 9/18/2012

Heritage Foundation President Jim DeMint Thinks 57 Percent Of Americans Are Un-American
Randa Morris o9/03/2013
Addicting Info
In a town hall meeting on August 28, 2013, Jim DeMint told his audience that he could not think of anything more un-American than national healthcare.
DeMint is a former US senator from South Carolina, who resigned his position to become President of the Heritage Foundation. According to Sourcewatch, the Heritage Foundation is a well funded right wing think tank, which is currently spearheading the effort to push Congress into defunding Obamacare (otherwise known as Affordable Care Act).
If taking care of our own citizens is un-American, as DeMint suggests, maybe being un-American isnt such a bad thing. Chinese food is un-American right? Plenty of Americans enjoy it just the same with egg rolls, too.
How dare they?
The whole idea of claiming that the Affordable Healthcare Act is un-American or anti-American is just as absurd as claiming that if you enjoy eating egg rolls or chicken chop suey, its somehow a betrayal of hot dogs and apple pie.
That brings me to the question of what it is exactly, that makes something American as opposed to un-American or anti-American. How did baseball or hot dogs or apple pie become synonymous with American life? More importantly, were Jim DeMint and the Heritage Foundation around to OK it before hand?
Things become American when a majority of American citizens like them and decide to adopt them as part of their lifestyle. Its never been up to a politician or some right-wing think tank to determine what will or wont become a part of the American way of life. The people of the United States determine what they like, what they dont like, what they want and what they dont want. Thats a big part of what makes this country great. America is a melting pot of people, of cultures, of lifestyles and ideas. We make our own rules. We decide for ourselves what will and wont be a part of the greater society we call the United States.
At one time a majority of American citizens decided that they liked baseball, hot dogs and apple pie. At other times the majority decided that they liked Medicare and Medicaid, Social Security, Disability, the SNAP program, caring for the poor
All of those things became a part of the American way of life, in spite of the fact that Republicans called them (and continue to call them) un-American and anti-American and Socialist and Communist and whatever other words they can think of, meant to try to convince us that those things are bad for the country.
And so it goes with the Affordable Care Act. The majority of Americans have already said that they like the provisions in Obamacare. Looking at in that light, Obamacare already is as American as baseball, hot dogs and apple pie. It became that way the moment a majority of American citizens said that they like it, and again when they made it clear that they do not want to defund it.
Now, it seems to me that anti-American policies are those that contradict what the American people like and want, since the American people are what makes up America. Those would be the kinds of policies DeMint and his cohorts at the Heritage Foundation are trying to force upon an unwilling public. At this point, trying to defund Obamacare is about as American as trying to outlaw baseball or hot dogs or apple pie. To be certain not everyone likes those things, but a majority of people do. 57 percent of the American people oppose defunding Obamacare. So is DeMint saying that nearly 60 percent of Americans are un-American now?
According to his logic, the Affordable Care Act, a program that has the support of the American public, is anti-American. On the other hand, his idea of defunding it, which is clearly in opposition to what the American people like or want, is all-American. I think the right wing has gone so far off the deep end that theyve even succeeded in confusing themselves.
While DeMint and his Republican colleagues continue to try to prevent the ACA from taking its rightful place in American society, the majority of American voters strongly believe that some things truly are un-American. Most believe that un-American is sabotaging a program that they approve of, for your own selfish purposes. Also that un-American is plotting against the President of the United States. Certainly that un-American is refusing to cooperate with the leader of the country, during a time of national crisis.
The majority of Americans think that whats un-American is turning your back on children, on the poor, on the sick and the elderly. Those are not things that Americans have ever done or that the majority has ever expressed a desire to do. Its why they consistently vote for programs that help people in hard times. Its why they support education, public food and housing assistance programs, medicare, medicaid and many other programs that demonstrate that what is American is to have concern for your fellow citizens and to do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Maybe more than anything, the people believe that whats un-American is undermining United States elections and working to overthrow our system of representative democracy. But Americans have seen this kind of thing before and theyve overcome it before. Voting is one thing that certainly is American. Its during elections that the people of the United States send a message to their representatives about what is and what is not going to be accepted as American. The Heritage Foundation consistently backs candidates that oppose the will of the American people. Even as the current Congress has earned the reputation of being the worst Congress in US history, right-wing think tanks continue to promote more candidates that will push policies that Americans do not like or want. In 2014 the people will certainly rise up to send a message about what being an American means to them.

Former county commissioner begins deputy secretary position Aug. 21
By AMANDA SCOTT
Staff writer
Former Calvert County commissioner Wilson Parran will be taking a new role at the state level Aug. 21 as the Maryland Department of Transportation deputy secretary of administration and operations.
On Wednesday, MDOT Secretary James T. Smith Jr. appointed Parran to the deputy secretary position.
Currently, Parran serves as the Maryland Department of Natural Resources assistant secretary for mission support, where he oversees human resources, fair practices, licensing and registration, finance and administrative service, audits and information technology. He has been in that position since 2011, he said.
"I'm really looking forward to this," Parran said Thursday morning of the transition, adding that he looks forward to working with Smith.
DNR Secretary Joe Gill said in a release to DNR employees Wednesday afternoon, "Wilson's contributions to DNR have been great, both as a leader of our mission support programs for the past two and a half years, and in his previous service as our Information Technology chief. While this will be a huge loss for our agency, we all wish Wilson much success in his new position."
As one of two deputy secretaries for MDOT, Parran will oversee the assistant secretary of administration and reporting offices, human resources, procurement, transportation technology services, and finance, according to an announcement about Parran's appointment from Smith to MDOT employees.
Parran said that in addition to his duties, he is looking forward to "leveraging" the new transportation revenues from the Transportation Infrastructure Investment Act of 2013 for Maryland citizens.
Smith said in his announcement that Parran will be "crucial to the implementation of our new expanded vision for Maryland's Transportation Network."
"Having worked closely with Wilson for many years through the Maryland Association of Counties, I can assure you that we are lucky to have him," Smith said in his announcement. "He is a great team builder with experience in the public and private sectors."
Parran served as Calvert County commissioner for eight years from 2002 to 2010, four of those years as the board's president. He has also served as president of the Maryland Association of Boards of Education, president of the Maryland State Board of Education and president of the Maryland Association of Counties.
He worked as vice president of corporate systems at Bell Atlantic and president and chief information officer of Frontier Information Technologies.
Parran will be joining Leif A. Dormsjo, who will begin Aug. 21 as deputy secretary of planning and project management, according to Smith's announcement.

The Families series of shorts is a beloved franchise with many proud, vital installments. Some other favorites: Families: Food and Failure, Families: Lies & Videotape, and perhaps most popular of all, Families: Dead and Loving It. But true connoisseurs, those with the complete Criterion Collection set and no friends to speak of, know that Families: Food and Eating was the creative pinnacle; if you ask them about it at a party they will not leave you alone until you agree. Then they'll awkwardly inquire if your younger sister is single and you'll leave the party so quickly you forget your jacket.
The film presents, in vivid detail, what a "Family" might do with some "Food" (no spoilers here). Shockingly, it seems there was a time when family eating consisted of more than choosing individual Hungry Man dinners to devour in front of separate bedroom televisions. We've come so far! Further, people in faraway countries like Japan, Mexico and "San Francisco" eat dinner in very different ways. Do you feel guilty about the ease with which you procure fine foods at your local supermarket? No? Well you should. Try to remember that next time you spend five minutes crafting a Facebook post about how irritating it is when Facebook doesn't load your Farmville statistics immediately, won't you?
Mike, Kevin and Bill will take away that stupid PlayStation if you don't come down here RIGHT NOW for some Families: Food and Eating!
