Last chance to vote early today, gay marriage case proceeds, streetcar workshops this month
With Election Day tomorrow, today is the last chance to vote early. Find your voting location here. Normal voting hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., although some days are extended. If you don't vote early, you can still vote on Election Day (Nov. 5). Check out CityBeat's coverage and endorsements for the 2013 election here. Judge Timothy Black ruled to continue with a lawsuit that will decide whether same-sex marriages conducted in other states should be acknowledged on Ohio's death certificates. The lawsuit originally appeared to matter only to a Cincinnati gay couple, but it's been expanded to potentially reflect on the rights of all gay couples in the state. Black is expected to give his final ruling on the lawsuit in December. If Black rules in favor of same-sex couples, it could be the latest step forward in an ongoing line of progress for LGBT rights. Although same-sex marriage remains illegal in Ohio, gay couples can now jointly file for federal taxes. Local officials plan to host two workshops to show business owners how the streetcar could benefit them. The workshops are set for Nov. 14 at 10 a.m. and Nov. 18 at 6 p.m. Both will be held on the third floor of the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County at 800 Vine Street, downtown Cincinnati. Anyone interested can sign up here. Attorney General Mike DeWine announced the Bureau of Criminal Investigation tested 2,093 sexual assault kits through October, resulting in 688 DNA matches. Each kit represents a sexual assault case in which DNA was taken but not previously submitted for testing. The initiative is meant to speed up the process through which sexual assault kits from around the state are tested. A teacher with close ties to Gov. John Kasich was promoted to senior policy adviser, a top position, at the Ohio Department of Education. With financial incentives from the state attached, the film industry is working more and creating jobs in Cincinnati and around Ohio. A new study, conducted in part by Cincinnati researchers, found obesity contributes to early puberty in girls. Ohio gas prices slightly increased from one week ago.

Election Issue hits stands, ballot restrictions move forward, Cranley helped move jobs
CityBeat's full Election Issue is in stands now. Check out our feature stories on three remarkable City Council challengers: Mike Moroski, Michelle Dillingham and Greg Landsman. Find the rest of our election coverage, along with our endorsements, here. The Ohio legislature is working through a bill that would limit ballot access for minor parties, which argue the petitioning and voting requirements are meant to help Gov. John Kasich's chances of re-election in 2014. The Ohio House narrowly passed the bill yesterday with looser restrictions than those set by the Ohio Senate earlier in the month, but a legislative error in the House means neither chamber will hammer out the final details until they reconvene next week. Republicans say the bill is necessary to set some basic standards for who can get on the ballot. Democrats have joined with minor parties in calling the bill the "John Kasich Re-election Protection Act" because it would supposedly protect Kasich from tea party and other third-party challengers after his support for the federally funded Medicaid expansion turned members of his conservative base against him. As an attorney and lobbyist at Keating, Muething & Klekamp (KMK), mayoral candidate John Cranley helped payroll company Paycor finalize plans to move its headquarters — and 450 to 500 jobs with it — from Queensgate in Cincinnati to Norwood, Ohio. Specifically, KMK and several of its employees, including Cranley, helped Paycor and Norwood set up a tax credit deal to incentivize the company's relocation. The Cranley campaign says he was just doing his job after Paycor went to KMK, not the other way around. But supporters of Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, Cranley's opponent in the mayoral race, say he shouldn't be helping companies leave the city he wants to lead. Paycor's move in 2014 means the city will have to take back some of the money it gave the company, through two tax deals that Cranley approved while on City Council, to encourage it to stay in Cincinnati through 2015. Cranley received a $1,100 campaign contribution from Paycor CEO Bob Coughlin on Aug. 20. Opinion:• "Which Came First, the Chicken or the Streetcar?"• "The Folly of Privatization." The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) board travels widely and often dines at public expense, according to an investigation from The Cincinnati Enquirer. Among other findings, The Enquirer found the CVG board, which is considered a governmental agency, has a much more lenient travel expense policy for itself than it does for staff members, and it sometimes uses airport funds to pay for liquor. On Twitter, Hamilton County Commissioner Greg Hartman called the findings outrageous and demanded resignations. Northside property crime is on the rise, and police and residents are taking notice. Business leaders in the neighborhood are concerned the negative stigma surrounding the crime will hurt their businesses. With federal stimulus funding expiring in November, 1.8 million Ohioans will get less food assistance starting tomorrow. The news comes after 18,000 in Hamilton County were hit by additional restrictions this month, as CityBeat covered in further detail here. Hamilton County commissioners yesterday agreed to pay $883,000 to cover legal fees for Judge Tracie Hunter and her legal team. The Hamilton County Board of Elections racked up the bill for the county by repeatedly appealing Hunter's demands that the board count more than one-third of previously discarded provisional ballots, which were enough to turn the juvenile court election in Hunter's favor. Hunter's opponent, John Williams, later won a separate appointment and election to get on the juvenile court. Metro, Cincinnati's local bus service, announced it's relaxing time limits on transfer tickets, which should make it easier to catch a bus without sprinting to the stop. Cincinnati-based Fifth Third Bancorp laid off nearly 500 employees in the past six months, with some of the layoffs hitting Cincinnati. The bank blames the job cuts on slowdowns in the mortgage business. A new study finds cheaters are more likely to strike in the afternoon. Early voting is now underway. Find your voting location here. Normal voting hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., although some days are extended. If you don't vote early, you can still vote on Election Day (Nov. 5).

Cranley Helped Paycor Move 450 to 500 Jobs out of Cincinnati
Mayoral candidate represented company as it moved headquarters to Norwood
As an attorney and lobbyist at Keating, Muething & Klekamp (KMK), mayoral candidate John Cranley helped payroll company Paycor finalize plans to move its headquarters — and 450 to 500 jobs with it — from Queensgate in Cincinnati to Norwood, Ohio. Specifically, KMK helped Paycor and Norwood set up a tax credit deal to incentivize the company's relocation. Throughout the process, the law firm called on several of its employees, including Cranley, to help with the negotiations. For Paycor, the move comes after more than two decades in Cincinnati. The company originally looked in Cincinnati for bigger headquarters with better parking options, but ultimately couldn't find a location to its liking, according to a May 2012 memo from the city manager. So when Paycor found a location outside city limits and worked out a tax incentive package with Norwood and Ohio, it decided to move. Cities and states often deploy incentive packages, ranging from property tax abatements to deductions on income taxes, to attract and retain companies. Pure Romance, a $100-million-plus "relationship enhancement" company, recently agreed to move from Loveland, Ohio, to downtown Cincinnati after securing such a tax deal with the city. Paycor broke ground on its new headquarters in December and plans to move there next spring. The transition will pull 450 to 500 employees out of Cincinnati, and the company plans to add another 250 to 300 employees over time at its new facilities. Cranley campaign manager Jay Kincaid says Cranley and KMK won't comment on the details of their work with Paycor or other clients for ethical reasons. But Kincaid says Cranley was just doing his job after Paycor went to KMK, not the other way around. "In the legal profession you're asked to represent clients, and you do it to the best of your ability," Kincaid says. "At the time I don't think (Cranley) was even running for office. The firm came to him and said, 'Hey, we have a job that we need you to work on.' And he did the work, just like anyone else would at their job." Norwood City Council approved the deal with Paycor on Oct. 23, 2012. Cranley announced his mayoral campaign three weeks later, on Nov. 14. Cranley's critics argue that a mayoral candidate shouldn't be helping companies leave the city he wants to lead. "It is disappointing that John (Cranley) helped Paycor leave the city with its over 450 tax-paying jobs. His efforts undercut the city's efforts to retain jobs and businesses," said Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, who is running against Cranley, in an emailed statement. The move comes despite Cincinnati's various attempts to hang on to Paycor, including previous tax deals. In 2001, then-Councilman Cranley and the rest of City Council approved tax incentives to keep the company in Cincinnati, retain its 142 jobs at the time and create another 25. The city administration estimated the deal would cost the city $225,750 and generate $546,000 in net tax revenue over five years.In 2006, Cranley and seven council members approved another incentive package to further secure Paycor's stay in Cincinnati. But the deals also required Paycor to remain in Cincinnati through 2015. Since Paycor's move violates the agreement, the city administration says it plans to claw back some of the tax benefits given to the company. In other words, Cranley in 2001 and 2006 approved tax deals with Paycor that the company, with his help, is now set to break. City spokesperson Meg Olberding says the clawback process will begin after Paycor moves to Norwood in 2014. So if Cranley is elected by voters on Nov. 5, he would be mayor as the city is taking back some of the money it gave away. Although the city is taking a hit, Cranley's relations with the payroll company appear unscathed. Paycor CEO Bob Coughlin contributed $1,100 to Cranley's campaign on Aug. 20, according to campaign finance reports.Updated with more details about the tax deals between Cincinnati and Paycor.

State job numbers mislead, Cranley didn't repay $75,000 loan, county to vote on budget
Many jobs the state government claims it's creating don't actually exist, according to The Toledo Blade. The Ohio Development Services Agency claims it improved its process for tracking the effects of taxpayer-financed loans, grants and subsidies, but The Blade found errors led to more than 11,000 claimed jobs that likely don't exist. Part of the problem is that the state relies on companies to self-report job numbers; although the Ohio Development Services Agency is supposed to authenticate the reports, officials almost never visit businesses that get tax incentives. The discrepancy between claimed job creation and reality raises more questions about the efforts of JobsOhio, the privatized development agency established by Gov. John Kasich and Republican legislators that recommends many of the tax subsidies going to Ohio businesses. CityBeat covered JobsOhio in further detail here. Mayoral candidate John Cranley didn't repay a $75,000 loan for his Incline Village Project in East Price Hill that was meant to go to a medical office and 77 apartments that never came to fruition. Kathy Schwab of Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), which loaned the money to Cranley's former development company, told The Cincinnati Enquirer that they worked out terms to repay the loan after the news broke yesterday. Supporters of Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls' mayoral campaign say the news casts doubt on whether Cranley is as fiscally responsible as he's led on while stumping on the campaign trail. As The Enquirer notes, Cranley is very proud of the Incline Project and often touts it to show off his experience building a successful project in the private sector.Hamilton County commissioners are expected to vote on a budget on Nov. 6. This year's budget is the first time in six years that the county won't need to make major cuts to close a gap. But the commissioners also told WVXU that it's unlikely they'll take up the county coroner's plan for a new crime lab, which county officials say is a dire need. A lawsuit filed on Oct. 23 asks the Hamilton County Court of Appeals to compel the Hamilton County Board of Elections to scrub UrbanCincy.com owner Randy Simes off the voter rolls, less than two weeks after the board of elections ruled Simes is eligible to vote in Cincinnati. The case has been mired in politics since it was first filed to the board of elections. Simes' supporters claim the legal actions are meant to suppress Simes' support for the streetcar project and Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls' mayoral campaign. Proponents of the lawsuit, who are backed by the attorney that regularly supports the anti-streetcar, anti-Qualls Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes (COAST), argue they're just trying to uphold the integrity of voting. The dispute hinges on whether Simes' registered residence for voting — a condo owned by his friend and business colleague, Travis Estell — is a place where he truly lived or just visited throughout 2013. Currently, no hearing or judge is set for the lawsuit. Pure Romance officially signed a lease for new headquarters in downtown Cincinnati, which means the $100-million-plus company is now set to move from its Loveland, Ohio, location starting in January 2014. Pure Romance originally considered moving to Kentucky after Ohio reneged on a tax deal, but council ultimately upped its offer to bring the company to Cincinnati. As part of its deal with the city, Pure Romance will get $854,000 in tax breaks over the next 10 years, but it will need to stay in Cincinnati for 20 years. The city administration estimates the deal will generate $2.6 million in net tax revenue over two decades and at least 126 high-paying jobs over three years. One in six Ohioans lived in poverty in 2012, putting the state poverty rate above pre-recession levels, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Two Butler County students were arrested yesterday after they allegedly threatened to go on a shooting spree on Facebook. Rachel Maddow accused Ky. Sen. Rand Paul of plagiarizing his speech off Wikipedia. The Taste of Belgium's next location: Rookwood Exchange. Pollinating bees could deliver pesticides in the future. Early voting is now underway.

Lawsuit Filed to Scrub Blogger Off Voter Rolls
COAST attorney files lawsuit following board of elections ruling
A lawsuit filed on Oct. 23 asks the Hamilton County Court of Appeals to compel the Hamilton County Board of Elections to scrub UrbanCincy.com owner Randy Simes off the local voter rolls. The lawsuit was filed less than two weeks after the board of elections ruled that Simes is eligible to vote in Cincinnati. The case has been mired in politics since it was first filed to the board of elections. Simes' supporters claim the legal actions are meant to suppress Simes' support for the streetcar project and Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls' mayoral campaign. Proponents of the lawsuit argue they're just trying to uphold the integrity of voting. Attorney Curt Hartman is spearheading the lawsuit. He regularly represents the Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes (COAST), a conservative group that opposes the streetcar project and Qualls. The lawsuit claims Simes isn't legally able to vote in Cincinnati because he currently resides in South Korea and lived in Chicago prior to the move overseas.Ohio election law requires a place of residency to vote, but someone can remain on the voter rolls if he or she intends to return to the city or state while in another part of the country or overseas. Simes' supporters, who the board of elections sided with on Oct. 14, claim Simes has every intention of returning to Cincinnati when he's done with his work in South Korea. Simes' contract with his employer, Parsons Brinckerhoff, states he'll return to Cincinnati in two years. Until then, Simes is registered to vote at a condominium owned by his friend and business colleague, Travis Estell. According to Estell's testimony to the board of election, Simes kept a key and sometimes stayed for a week when he came and went from the residence throughout the spring and summer. Simes also has credit card and bank mail sent to the address, and he attempted to change his registered driver's license address to match the residence, Estell said.But Hartman says the evidence, which was gathered largely through Simes' social media activities, shows Simes was a visitor, not a resident. He cites Estell's testimony that Simes lived out of a suitcase and didn't pay rent when he stayed in Cincinnati.Tim Burke, chairman of the board of elections and Hamilton County Democratic Party, says there's a reason three out of four members of the board, including one Republican, agreed Simes should remain on the voter rolls. "The facts that were presented didn't rise to the legal standard of clear and convincing evidence to justify depriving the voter of his right to vote," Burke says. Burke likens the arrangement to a Procter & Gamble employee who spends a year or two overseas but still keeps the right to vote in Cincinnati. Burke says someone could even sell his home in Cincinnati and keep his right to vote from the sold residence.Hartman says the comparison doesn't work because a Procter & Gamble employee would live in and keep ties to Cincinnati prior to moving overseas. He claims Simes' decision to register to vote from Chicago in 2012 effectively broke his electoral ties with Cincinnati and Ohio.But the argument could be rendered moot. Burke, who is named as one of the defendants in the lawsuit, says the legal challenge might not make it to court because two different people filed the lawsuit to the court of appeals and complaint to the board of elections. That could render the lawsuit procedurally defective and lead to a dismissal, according to Burke.The lawsuit currently has no scheduled hearing or judge, but Hartman says he hopes to expedite hearings in time for the Nov. 5 election.

Auroran faces at least 20 years in two Labor Day shootings
BY ERIKA WURST email@example.com November 15, 2012 11:38AM
Alejandro Rodriguez faces up to 20 years in prison in an Aurora shooting.
Updated: November 17, 2012 8:02PM
A 21-year-old Aurora man will be sent to prison for at least 20 years for his involvement in two gang-related shootings over the Labor Day weekend in 2011.
On Thursday, a Kane County jury convicted Alejandro Rodriguez, of the 1300 block of Indian Avenue, of armed violence, aggravated discharge of a firearm within 1,000 feet of a school, aggravated discharge of a firearm and unlawful possession of a firearm by a street gang member, all felonies.
Rodriguez faces a sentence of 20 to 60 years in prison.
According to prosecutors, Rodriguez, a street gang member, was the passenger in a vehicle on Aurora's near East Side on the afternoon of Sept. 3, 2011. Police said as they approached State and Kane streets, they came upon a man they believed to be a rival gang member. Prosecutors said Rodriguez began to argue with the man, and then pulled out a revolver, firing three shots.
The shots missed the victim, but hit a nearby house and vehicle.
A short time later, Rodriguez and his fellow gang member approached Beach Street and Columbia Street, where they came upon a second man they believed to be a rival gang member. Prosecutors said Rodriguez fired another three shots at the second victim, missing him, and again striking a nearby house and car.
A witness of the second shooting called 911. After a brief search of the neighborhood, police found Rodriguez with five rounds of ammunition for the Smith & Wesson revolver used in the shootings. During a subsequent search of his home, police said they found more than 300 rounds ammunition for the Smith & Wesson.
"These were brazen acts of gang violence carried out in broad daylight on a holiday weekend that put the safety of the public in grave danger," Kane County State's Attorney Joe McMahon said.

About the program
St. Catherine University's associate of science in nursing program is now joined with the university's bachelor's degree-completion in nursing in the new Dual Degree in Nursing option.
Until now, St. Kate's students pursued these two options separately. They completed associate degrees and left the university to start working as registered nurses. Then, at a later date, they enrolled again in St. Kate's accelerated RN-BS Degree Completion option to finish upper-level courses for the bachelor of science degree with a nursing major.
Now, through the Dual Degree in Nursing, students will be able to move seamlessly and continuously through both options. Most students will be awarded associate degrees in nursing after 2-3 years, pass the NCLEX exam and become eligible to start working as registered nurses and then, without pause, continue on for another 1-2 years to complete their bachelor's degrees in nursing.
Why the Dual Degree?
The nursing profession is undergoing a transformation. The profession has become more complex, requiring advanced clinical, critical thinking and communication skills. Now, to be hired into some positions or advance in others, many nurses must hold bachelor's degrees — or demonstrate that they are on the way to completing their bachelor's. This transformation is driven by the need to improve patient outcomes and is in line with recommendations from the Institute of Medicine (IOM).
With the Dual Degree in Nursing, St. Kate's offers you an opportunity to get a head start on courses that will count toward your bachelor's degree before completing your associate degrees, and for moving seamlessly from one step on your educational pathway to the next.
As the only university in the region offering all levels of nursing education — associate, bachelor's, master's and doctoral — St. Kate's is able to offer a streamlined pathway through your nursing education. Throughout all Dual Degree in Nursing courses, St. Kate's has threaded the American Association of Colleges of Nursing's Essentials of Baccalaureate Education.
Who are Dual Degree in Nursing students?
St. Catherine University offers three options for students seeking to become registered nurses. Each option serves different students requiring different pathways into the profession: (1) The "Day" bachelor's option is a traditional pathway to a nursing bachelor's degree for full-time, weekday students in St. Kate's College for Women; (2) the Master of Science in Nursing: Entry-Level, a highly competitive program with limited enrollment, for women and men who have already earned bachelor's degrees (without nursing majors); and (3) the Dual Degree in Nursing> The Dual degree may be right for you if you are:
- An adult student seeking a program that offers a more flexible pathway into nursing.
- Seeking a program that allows you to earn an associate degree, and start working as a nurse, before completing your bachelor's degree.
- An adult with prior college experience — we'll recognize your prior college credits, and offer you a program of study that gets you where you need to go.
- Seeking a program that meets on a "nontraditional" class schedule, with more options for evening, weekend and online study.
- A student with a previous bachelor's degree, seeking an alternative to the M.S. in Nursing: Entry-Level (for which enrollment is limited, and admissions are highly competitive).
Dual Degree in Nursing enrollment is open to women and men, from diverse backgrounds and a wide variety of faith traditions. Some students are in their 20's, others are mid-life career changers. Some students have little or college experience, while others have previous undergraduate or graduate degrees.
Essential abilities: Is nursing right for you?
Nursing is a rewarding profession with promising long-term career prospects. It is also highly demanding. Before considering a nursing career, and taking on the time and expense of a nursing degree program, consider carefully the physical, emotional, scheduling and other demands of nursing. Read closely our statement of essential abilities for nursing students. And, consider that there are many different ways to work in healthcare. St. Kate's also offers other programs for students interested in preparing for health careers. Contact your admission counselor for help exploring your options.
The St. Kate's advantage: quality, values, liberal arts, leadership
Why St. Kate's? As a Dual Degree in Nursing student, you'll get an educational experience that moves well beyond basic technical education standards. Employers recognize St. Kate's nurses for superior communication skills, critical thinking, ethics, compassion, and caring. Clinical excellence and academic rigor are the foundation for your experience, grounded in the university's Catholic and liberal arts traditions. With a St. Kate's nursing degree, you'll be prepared for leadership in nursing.

Customer Reviews
If I could give this app 100 stars, it still wouldn't be enough.
I've written dozens of reviews for iPhone apps over the years, mainly to let the developer and any potential users that there are serious problems with it.
I waited for 3 years to review this one, because honestly? It worked perfectly immediately! What are the chances? This app was so awesome I wanted to wait until I had thoroughly put it through its paces first.... and here it is: THIS APP IS INCREDIBLE! ABSOLUTELY THE BEST, MUST HAVE APP IN THE APP STORE !
Nothing to think about... Just get it and you'll never look back!
Perfect for a HTPC
Using this with my Mac mini hooked up to my TV and receiver, absolutely perfect for that. Haven't had a single problem connecting, even with a few restarts that dropped/lost the real Bluetooth keyboard I no longer need. Love that as I type it shows up on the iPhone screen which is easier to read than the tiny type on the tv. No lag either, works exactly as you'd expect it to. Highly recommended for anyone running a Mac in a HTPC setup that wants an easy solution for controlling it.
My favorite version of a universal remote.
Fantastic mouse app. I have used this thing since college. It's good for everything from playing pranks on your roommates to general laziness when operating your computer from your bed. I was really impressed with the quick links window on the app. I'm very happy with this purchase and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Berea >
Shopping >Shoppe
138 Front St, Berea, OH | Directions 4401741.369045 -81.853101
Historical – Lest not foget, The Shoppe has been around for many years. I remember when you had to meander a narrow, wooden stairway, the vinyl record albums and not to be forgotten, but The Shoppe used to carry smoking paraphernalia. One of a very few locations carrying this line of inventory. It's still a great place to shop for something unusual, just like the old days.
In this neo-hippie gift shop, there's a flurry of hand-made and unusual finds. – The Scene
Be sure to browse through the neatly displayed garden and household ornaments and wide assortment of glass and ceramic figurines, which include some beautiful hand-blown perfume bottles. Check out the collection of cards and stationery, and don't miss the new and "gently used" music and posters; the selection and prices are average. The large, looming wooden facade may seem daunting from the street, so take advantage of the parking lot and homier entrance 'round back.
The Goods
Seeking your own sense of style? The Shoppe carries some of Northeast Ohio's most unusual clothes, featuring ornamental beading, Eastern-influenced silk patterns and a whole slew of leather. Prices can be steep, but tend to be worth the investment. Jewelry (especially silver)is also a specialty: From simple hoops to ornate, one-of-a-kind gemstone creations by local artists--all possess that funky free-love feel.

Ratings & Reviews
Fantastic for use as AirPlay jambox
I have been waiting for this product for months as I saw it at CES and thought it would be a good fit for my needs. The setup usin I have been waiting for this product for months as I saw it at CES and thought it would be a good fit for my needs. The setup using an iPhone/iPod was super easy and the QuickStart guide does an adequate job of guiding the user through it. The only potential issue for a lot of people will be the IP address that Philips instructs the user to use as it's commonly used by a number of devices and if they are not turned off (modems, etc.), the setup link will not come up.
The sound is as to be expected for such a small unit. Not bad at all and light years beyond what was possible a decade ago but still, "there's no replacement for displacement" we always used to say.
I'm just thrilled to have a rechargeable, portable, Airplayable solution that doesn't look like a dogs breakfast. Bravo Philips for the whole Fidelio line. …

I initially liked it because it was more difficult for a guest to plug in their iphone without me realizing it and start playing their music instead of mine. Fell in love with it, when I heard the beautiful sound and power that comes out from this little ring speaker! So clear, so powerful, and double-sided so I can direction the music into two adjacent rooms- FANTASTIC!!!
I have noticed that after a while it will stop playing music, but that's either because a- we ran out the battery on it and needed to plug it in to charge it up, or b- the device sending the music wirelessly has gone into deep sleep mode.
When I connect it with my laptop to play music, it is seamless, when using my iPhone or iPad, I recommend downloading the Philps Sound Dock App, because that will keep the music playing for longer. Don't worry, the app is free to download and use.
Overall FANTASTIC speaker! Everyone that's been to our house and heard it want one for themselves! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! …

Can you airplay simultaneously to multiple speakers from iPhone, or is this only possible through iTunes on an actual computer?
- Asked by Mohammad A from North Bethesda
- Jun 20, 2013
This is not a good "PA" (Public Address) device for several reasons.
The electronic audio world This is not a good "PA" (Public Address) device for several reasons.
The electronic audio world has two common signal levels. Think of it as two radically different "volume" levels. "Mic level" signals come out of microphones. "Line level" signals are used to pass among devices like this. An "Aux in" port expects a line level signal. Plug a microphone into it and it won't be loud enough. It won't be NEARLY loud enough.
You could use a "mic preamp" to bring the signal level up to line level and fix this problem, but then the port is stereo and the mic is probably mono, and this is a 12 watt home stereo device when you really need a 150 watt PA system, like a Mackey SRM 150. PA systems are rugged and are not damaged by occasional feedback that fries home stereo speakers.
You don't need high fidelity, delicate stereo. You need loud, clear, rugged mono. The Mackey takes up to two mic level or line level microphones, (XLR or 1/4" TS or 1/4" TRS -- the three types of plugs PA microphones use) plus RCA stereo input (like a home stereo) line level and gives you knobs to adjust the volume for each of these inputs. It weighs 7 pounds and is slightly smaller than a bowling ball.
Use the Sound Ring for wireless music on your wireless network at home. Use the SRM 150 in your conference room. …

Gigabyte has recalled their new X79 motherboards because of overheating problems when overclocking. A new BIOS update was released to alleviate the overheating problem.
See http://www.gigabyte.tw/press-center/news-page.aspx?nid=1077

Interesting. I tried to build a new system based on their X79-UD5 motherboard, and for the life of me I couldn't get it to POST into its BIOS setup. No amount of keyboard pressing (or smashing) would get me past the opening screen. I tried even swapped the motherboard with a new one (along with the 3930k chip, if you believe that).
That was the first system I ventured away from my usual stand-by of Asus. I thought Gigabyte had a good name, but it left a fairly bad taste in my mouth.
Thanks Harm. I have the same X79-UD5 which was still on F3 (the latest firmware is F7). The update lost my boot sequence btw.
Toms Hardware now has an item about the issue complete with a picture of a toasted X79-UD3: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Gigabyte-MOSFET-G1.Assassin-2-GA-X79- UD3-GA-X79-UD5,14374.html
Thanks for this. I was going to build a new rig with the Gigabyte X79-UD7, but decided to go with ADK instead. Now that I think about it, I better call Eric Bowen at ADK to explain what I meant when I asked him to build me a smokin' machine! I'd hate for him to misunderstand and use one of the affected moboards in order to grant my request!
Thanks for the tip Harm! I've got a GA-X79-UD5 at the moment and it's been rock steady through all my stress testing so far (Only RAM OC'd). It's quite scary though - I chopped the heatpipe off the VRM sink to install a waterblock on the X79. I just hope heat was flowing from X79 to VRM sink, and not the other way round! Otherwise, perhaps I'm in for a nasty shock... No warranties now that my heatsink is cut in half
Looks like Gigabyte are only recalling the BIOS though, not admitting a hardware fault.

The Milwaukee Chamber Orchestra and Bel Canto Chorus are pleased to announce the second annual free commemorative tribute concert to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on Sunday, Jan. 20 at 5 p.m. at Holy Redeemer Institutional Church of God in Christ.
"This second annual tribute concert to the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., at once celebrates the man and his achievements, while providing an artistic forum for building understanding and connection between Milwaukee's diverse communities," said Richard Hynson, Music Director of both the MCO and Bel Canto Chorus. "By commemorating this great man we acknowledge a history that is still painful, while embracing his ideals for peaceful reconciliation, not only here in America, but throughout the world."
The program will include historic words from a letter to Gene Patterson by Dr. King, Robert Kennedy's Speech Announcing King's Assassination, and Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech..
In addition to the concert, the David Barnett Gallery will be exhibiting Inspiration II by Reginald K. Gee before and after the concert. The piece which was exhibited at the Smithsonian Museum in 1999 as part of the a collection honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.., along with a giclée print and small collection of his religious-themed artwork will be on display. Gee, of both African and Native American descent, explores the theme of inspiration using Dr. King's own words.

Milwaukee, WI 53209

I noticed a difference the first time. And yes, a little goes a long way. This is a MUST buy! A little pricey, but we are worth it right?!
Really like this product. Smells good and goes on light. Had not heard of it before and would consider buying it.
My eyes tend to get puffy and dark circles below my eyes. I like the way this product makes my skin feel and look. A little goes a long way.
This may seem expensive, but it takes a tiny amount of product per application. It has a great texture, so it goes on smoothly. I can already tell a difference in the skin under my eyes.
Long before I became "middle aged" I had problems with under-eye circles (or darkness or excess luggage) Here is a product that actually works. It's on my favorite list now with plans to purchase in the future. It's most definitely worth the money.
I absolutely loved the way that this product made my skin look and feel! it is a very good product :)
So because of the long hours of studying , and what not , I needed this in my life, my dark circles are so annoying and this really makes a difference.
I got a face wash and toner instead of the eye cream. The face wash cleaned my face and makeup but it didn't feel like anything special.
I really liked the texture of this product and after using for a few weeks, I really feel like I saw a difference in the wrinkles under my eyes. A definite must!
I like this product. I am not sure if it is better than other products but it did feel nice on my skin. I am not sure if the price is worth the purchase.

Posted 26 March 2006 - 05:57 PM
CRIMINAL MINDS revolves around an elite team of FBI profilers who analyze the country's most twisted criminal minds, anticipating their next moves before they strike again. Special Agent Jason Gideon (Mandy Patinkin) is the FBI's top behavioral analyst and he joins the Behavioral Analysis Unit lead by Special Agent Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson), a family man who is able to gain people's trust and unlock their secrets. Also on the team are Elle Greenaway (Lola Glaudini), an agent with a background in sexual offenses; Special Agent Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore), an expert on obsessional crimes; Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler), a classically misunderstood genius whose social IQ is as low as his intellectual IQ is high; and Jennifer "JJ" Jareau, (AJ Cook), a confident young agent who acts as the unit liaison for the team. Each member brings his or her own area of expertise to the table as they pinpoint predators' motivations and identify their emotional triggers in the attempt to stop them.
