The White House Press Office just sent out the transcript of President Obama's speech today.
For Immediate Release
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. (Applause.) Please have a seat. Well, good afternoon, and thank you to Dean Singleton and the board of the Associated Press for inviting me here today. It is a pleasure to speak to all of you -- and to have a microphone that I can see. (Laughter.) Feel free to transmit any of this to Vladimir if you see him. (Laughter.)
Clearly, we're already in the beginning months of another long, lively election year. There will be gaffes and minor controversies, be hot mics and Etch-a-Sketch moments. You will cover every word that we say, and we will complain vociferously about the unflattering words that you write -- unless, of course, you're writing about the other guy -- in which case, good job. (Laughter.)
But there are also big, fundamental issues at stake right now -- issues that deserve serious debate among every candidate, and serious coverage among every reporter. Whoever he may be, the next President will inherit an economy that is recovering, but not yet recovered, from the worst economic calamity since the Great Depression. Too many Americans will still be looking for a job that pays enough to cover their bills or their mortgage. Too many citizens will still lack the sort of financial security that started slipping away years before this recession hit. A debt that has grown over the last decade, primarily as a result of two wars, two massive tax cuts, and an unprecedented financial crisis, will have to be paid down.
In the face of all these challenges, we're going to have to answer a central question as a nation: What, if anything, can we do to restore a sense of security for people who are willing to work hard and act responsibly in this country? Can we succeed as a country where a shrinking number of people do exceedingly well, while a growing number struggle to get by? Or are we better off when everyone gets a fair shot, and everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same rules?
This is not just another run-of-the-mill political debate. I've said it's the defining issue of our time, and I believe it. It's why I ran in 2008. It's what my presidency has been about. It's why I'm running again. I believe this is a make-or-break moment for the middle class, and I can't remember a time when the choice between competing visions of our future has been so unambiguously clear.
Keep in mind, I have never been somebody who believes that government can or should try to solve every problem. Some of you know my first job in Chicago was working with a group of Catholic churches that often did more good for the people in their communities than any government program could. In those same communities I saw that no education policy, however well crafted, can take the place of a parent's love and attention.
As President, I've eliminated dozens of programs that weren't working, and announced over 500 regulatory reforms that will save businesses and taxpayers billions, and put annual domestic spending on a path to become the smallest share of the economy since Dwight Eisenhower held this office -- since before I was born. I know that the true engine of job creation in this country is the private sector, not Washington, which is why I've cut taxes for small business owners 17 times over the last three years.
So I believe deeply that the free market is the greatest force for economic progress in human history. My mother and the grandparents who raised me instilled the values of self-reliance and personal responsibility that remain the cornerstone of the American idea. But I also share the belief of our first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln -- a belief that, through government, we should do together what we cannot do as well for ourselves.
That belief is the reason this country has been able to build a strong military to keep us safe, and public schools to educate our children. That belief is why we've been able to lay down railroads and highways to facilitate travel and commerce. That belief is why we've been able to support the work of scientists and researchers whose discoveries have saved lives, and unleashed repeated technological revolutions, and led to countless new jobs and entire industries.
That belief is also why we've sought to ensure that every citizen can count on some basic measure of security. We do this because we recognize that no matter how responsibly we live our lives, any one of us, at any moment, might face hard times, might face bad luck, might face a crippling illness or a layoff. And so we contribute to programs like Medicare and Social Security, which guarantee health care and a source of income after a lifetime of hard work. We provide unemployment insurance, which protects us against unexpected job loss and facilitates the labor mobility that makes our economy so dynamic. We provide for Medicaid, which makes sure that millions of seniors in nursing homes and children with disabilities are getting the care that they need.
For generations, nearly all of these investments -- from transportation to education to retirement programs -- have been supported by people in both parties. As much as we might associate the G.I. Bill with Franklin Roosevelt, or Medicare with Lyndon Johnson, it was a Republican, Lincoln, who launched the Transcontinental Railroad, the National Academy of Sciences, land grant colleges. It was Eisenhower who launched the Interstate Highway System and new investment in scientific research. It was Richard Nixon who created the Environmental Protection Agency, Ronald Reagan who worked with Democrats to save Social Security. It was George W. Bush who added prescription drug coverage to Medicare.
What leaders in both parties have traditionally understood is that these investments aren't part of some scheme to redistribute wealth from one group to another. They are expressions of the fact that we are one nation. These investments benefit us all. They contribute to genuine, durable economic growth.
Show me a business leader who wouldn't profit if more Americans could afford to get the skills and education that today's jobs require. Ask any company where they'd rather locate and hire workers –- a country with crumbling roads and bridges, or one that's committed to high-speed Internet and high-speed railroads and high-tech research and development?
It doesn't make us weaker when we guarantee basic security for the elderly or the sick or those who are actively looking for work. What makes us weaker is when fewer and fewer people can afford to buy the goods and services our businesses sell, or when entrepreneurs don't have the financial security to take a chance and start a new business. What drags down our entire economy is when there's an ever-widening chasm between the ultra-rich and everybody else.
In this country, broad-based prosperity has never trickled down from the success of a wealthy few. It has always come from the success of a strong and growing middle class. That's how a generation who went to college on the G.I. Bill, including my grandfather, helped build the most prosperous economy the world has ever known. That's why a CEO like Henry Ford made it his mission to pay his workers enough so they could buy the cars that they made. That's why research has shown that countries with less inequality tend to have stronger and steadier economic growth over the long run.
And yet, for much of the last century, we have been having the same argument with folks who keep peddling some version of trickle-down economics. They keep telling us that if we'd convert more of our investments in education and research and health care into tax cuts -- especially for the wealthy -- our economy will grow stronger. They keep telling us that if we'd just strip away more regulations, and let businesses pollute more and treat workers and consumers with impunity, that somehow we'd all be better off. We're told that when the wealthy become even wealthier, and corporations are allowed to maximize their profits by whatever means necessary, it's good for America, and that their success will automatically translate into more jobs and prosperity for everybody else. That's the theory.
Now, the problem for advocates of this theory is that we've tried their approach -- on a massive scale. The results of their experiment are there for all to see. At the beginning of the last decade, the wealthiest Americans received a huge tax cut in 2001 and another huge tax cut in 2003. We were promised that these tax cuts would lead to faster job growth. They did not. The wealthy got wealthier -- we would expect that. The income of the top 1 percent has grown by more than 275 percent over the last few decades, to an average of $1.3 million a year. But prosperity sure didn't trickle down.
Instead, during the last decade, we had the slowest job growth in half a century. And the typical American family actually saw their incomes fall by about 6 percent, even as the economy was growing.
It was a period when insurance companies and mortgage lenders and financial institutions didn't have to abide by strong enough regulations, or they found their ways around them. And what was the result? Profits for many of these companies soared. But so did people's health insurance premiums. Patients were routinely denied care, often when they needed it most. Families were enticed, and sometimes just plain tricked, into buying homes they couldn't afford. Huge, reckless bets were made with other people's money on the line. And our entire financial system was nearly destroyed.
So we tried this theory out. And you would think that after the results of this experiment in trickle-down economics, after the results were made painfully clear, that the proponents of this theory might show some humility, might moderate their views a bit. You'd think they'd say, you know what, maybe some rules and regulations are necessary to protect the economy and prevent people from being taken advantage of by insurance companies or credit card companies or mortgage lenders. Maybe, just maybe, at a time of growing debt and widening inequality, we should hold off on giving the wealthiest Americans another round of big tax cuts. Maybe when we know that most of today's middle-class jobs require more than a high school degree, we shouldn't gut education, or lay off thousands of teachers, or raise interest rates on college loans, or take away people's financial aid.
But that's exactly the opposite of what they've done. Instead of moderating their views even slightly, the Republicans running Congress right now have doubled down, and proposed a budget so far to the right it makes the Contract with America look like the New Deal. (Laughter.) In fact, that renowned liberal, Newt Gingrich, first called the original version of the budget "radical" and said it would contribute to "right-wing social engineering." This is coming from Newt Gingrich.
And yet, this isn't a budget supported by some small rump group in the Republican Party. This is now the party's governing platform. This is what they're running on. One of my potential opponents, Governor Romney, has said that he hoped a similar version of this plan from last year would be introduced as a bill on day one of his presidency. He said that he's "very supportive" of this new budget, and he even called it "marvelous" -- which is a word you don't often hear when it comes to describing a budget. (Laughter.) It's a word you don't often hear generally. (Laughter.)
So here's what this "marvelous" budget does. Back in the summer, I came to an agreement with Republicans in Congress to cut roughly $1 trillion in annual spending. Some of these cuts were about getting rid of waste; others were about programs that we support but just can't afford given our deficits and our debt. And part of the agreement was a guarantee of another trillion in savings, for a total of about $2 trillion in deficit reduction.
This new House Republican budget, however, breaks our bipartisan agreement and proposes massive new cuts in annual domestic spending –- exactly the area where we've already cut the most. And I want to actually go through what it would mean for our country if these cuts were to be spread out evenly. So bear with me. I want to go through this -- because I don't think people fully appreciate the nature of this budget.
The year after next, nearly 10 million college students would see their financial aid cut by an average of more than $1,000 each. There would be 1,600 fewer medical grants, research grants for things like Alzheimer's and cancer and AIDS. There would be 4,000 fewer scientific research grants, eliminating support for 48,000 researchers, students, and teachers. Investments in clean energy technologies that are helping us reduce our dependence on foreign oil would be cut by nearly a fifth.
If this budget becomes law and the cuts were applied evenly, starting in 2014, over 200,000 children would lose their chance to get an early education in the Head Start program. Two million mothers and young children would be cut from a program that gives them access to healthy food. There would be 4,500 fewer federal grants at the Department of Justice and the FBI to combat violent crime, financial crime, and help secure our borders. Hundreds of national parks would be forced to close for part or all of the year. We wouldn't have the capacity to enforce the laws that protect the air we breathe, the water we drink, or the food that we eat.
Cuts to the FAA would likely result in more flight cancellations, delays, and the complete elimination of air traffic control services in parts of the country. Over time, our weather forecasts would become less accurate because we wouldn't be able to afford to launch new satellites. And that means governors and mayors would have to wait longer to order evacuations in the event of a hurricane.
This is not conjecture. I am not exaggerating. These are facts. And these are just the cuts that would happen the year after next.
If this budget became law, by the middle of the century, funding for the kinds of things I just mentioned would have to be cut by about 95 percent. Let me repeat that. Those categories I just mentioned we would have to cut by 95 percent. As a practical matter, the federal budget would basically amount to whatever is left in entitlements, defense spending, and interest on the national debt -- period. Money for these investments that have traditionally been supported on a bipartisan basis would be practically eliminated.
And the same is true for other priorities like transportation, and homeland security, and veterans programs for the men and women who have risked their lives for this country. This is not an exaggeration. Check it out yourself.
And this is to say nothing about what the budget does to health care. We're told that Medicaid would simply be handed over to the states -- that's the pitch: Let's get it out of the central bureaucracy. The states can experiment. They'll be able to run the programs a lot better. But here's the deal the states would be getting. They would have to be running these programs in the face of the largest cut to Medicaid that has ever been proposed -- a cut that, according to one nonpartisan group, would take away health care for about 19 million Americans -- 19 million.
Who are these Americans? Many are someone's grandparents who, without Medicaid, won't be able to afford nursing home care without Medicaid. Many are poor children. Some are middle-class families who have children with autism or Down's Syndrome. Some are kids with disabilities so severe that they require 24-hour care. These are the people who count on Medicaid.
Then there's Medicare. Because health care costs keep rising and the Baby Boom generation is retiring, Medicare, we all know, is one of the biggest drivers of our long-term deficit. That's a challenge we have to meet by bringing down the cost of health care overall so that seniors and taxpayers can share in the savings.
But here's the solution proposed by the Republicans in Washington, and embraced by most of their candidates for president: Instead of being enrolled in Medicare when they turn 65, seniors who retire a decade from now would get a voucher that equals the cost of the second cheapest health care plan in their area. If Medicare is more expensive than that private plan, they'll have to pay more if they want to enroll in traditional Medicare. If health care costs rise faster than the amount of the voucher -- as, by the way, they've been doing for decades -- that's too bad. Seniors bear the risk. If the voucher isn't enough to buy a private plan with the specific doctors and care that you need, that's too bad.
So most experts will tell you the way this voucher plan encourages savings is not through better care at cheaper cost. The way these private insurance companies save money is by designing and marketing plans to attract the youngest and healthiest seniors -- cherry-picking -- leaving the older and sicker seniors in traditional Medicare, where they have access to a wide range of doctors and guaranteed care. But that, of course, makes the traditional Medicare program even more expensive, and raise premiums even further.
The net result is that our country will end up spending more on health care, and the only reason the government will save any money -- it won't be on our books -- is because we've shifted it to seniors. They'll bear more of the costs themselves. It's a bad idea, and it will ultimately end Medicare as we know it.
Now, the proponents of this budget will tell us we have to make all these draconian cuts because our deficit is so large; this is an existential crisis, we have to think about future generations, so on and so on. And that argument might have a shred of credibility were it not for their proposal to also spend $4.6 trillion over the next decade on lower tax rates.
We're told that these tax cuts will supposedly be paid for by closing loopholes and eliminating wasteful deductions. But the Republicans in Congress refuse to list a single tax loophole they are willing to close. Not one. And by the way, there is no way to get even close to $4.6 trillion in savings without dramatically reducing all kinds of tax breaks that go to middle-class families -- tax breaks for health care, tax breaks for retirement, tax breaks for homeownership.
Meanwhile, these proposed tax breaks would come on top of more than a trillion dollars in tax giveaways for people making more than $250,000 a year. That's an average of at least $150,000 for every millionaire in this country -- $150,000.
Let's just step back for a second and look at what $150,000 pays for: A year's worth of prescription drug coverage for a senior citizen. Plus a new school computer lab. Plus a year of medical care for a returning veteran. Plus a medical research grant for a chronic disease. Plus a year's salary for a firefighter or police officer. Plus a tax credit to make a year of college more affordable. Plus a year's worth of financial aid. One hundred fifty thousand dollars could pay for all of these things combined -- investments in education and research that are essential to economic growth that benefits all of us. For $150,000, that would be going to each millionaire and billionaire in this country. This budget says we'd be better off as a country if that's how we spend it.
This is supposed to be about paying down our deficit? It's laughable.
The bipartisan Simpson-Bowles commission that I created -- which the Republicans originally were for until I was for it -- that was about paying down the deficit. And I didn't agree with all the details. I proposed about $600 billion more in revenue and $600 billion -- I'm sorry -- it proposed about $600 billion more in revenue and about $600 billion more in defense cuts than I proposed in my own budget. But Bowles-Simpson was a serious, honest, balanced effort between Democrats and Republicans to bring down the deficit. That's why, although it differs in some ways, my budget takes a similarly balanced approach: Cuts in discretionary spending, cuts in mandatory spending, increased revenue.

2009 Cadillac Escalade Hybrid
Cadillac announced the world premiere of the Escalade Hybrid, the world's first fuel-saving hybrid applied to a large luxury SUV. Powered by an innovative, fuel-saving 2-Mode Hybrid system, Escalade Hybrid will deliver more than a 50-percent improvement in fuel economy in city driving - all while delivering the same distinctive style, segment-leading features and full-size capability that have made the Escalade an icon.
" Escalade, already the sales and style leader among large luxury SUVs, now adds the desirability of a fuel-saving, technically advanced hybrid system," said Jim Taylor, Cadillac general manager. "The arrival of Escalade Hybrid means that consumers can now use less fossil fuel, reduce emissions and still enjoy the benefits of a full-size luxury SUV."
The Hybrid goes on sale in the summer of 2008 and is the newest example of Escalade's technology leadership.
"No other manufacturer offers a hybrid than can seat eight luxuriously while simultaneously carrying or trailering lots of cargo comfortably," Taylor said. "And no hybrid delivers the dramatic presence that is synonymous with Escalade."
Escalade Hybrid is available in 2WD and 4WD configurations. It delivers up to 6,000 pounds (2,721 kg) of usable towing capacity on 2WD models and 5,700 pounds (2,585 kg) on 4WD models. All of Escalade's standard comfort and convenience features are included. This includes an eight-inch, touch-screen navigation system that displays performance readouts of the 2-Mode Hybrid system on the screen.
Escalade Hybrid extends Cadillac's leadership in the large luxury SUV category. Escalade sales have grown in the face of changing sales trends and increased competition. In fact, Escalade sales increased 22 percent in September over year-ago sales. Other models in the Escalade lineup include the extended-length Escalade ESV and the versatile Escalade EXT luxury-utility truck. The Hybrid model is available with the standard Escalade body style.
Patented 2-Mode Hybrid technologyThe Escalade's 2-Mode Hybrid system allows it to return exceptional fuel economy in both city and highway while delivering the capabilities of a true luxury SUV. In city driving, this advanced hybrid power system enables Escalade to launch and drive low speeds on electricity alone. As additional power is demanded, the system blends output from the battery and gas engine smoothly.
GM's patented 2-Mode Hybrid system consists of an advanced electrically variable transmission (EVT) and 300-volt nickel-metal hydride Energy Storage System (ESS). These systems work in concert with the standard 6.0L V-8 Gen IV gasoline engine with Active Fuel Management (AFM) and late-intake valve closing (LIVC) technology. AFM enables the V-8 engine to seamlessly shut off half of its cylinders when less power is needed, such as during highway cruising. This new hybrid system not only enables the Escalade Hybrid to drive low speeds on electricity alone, it also allows the 6.0L V-8 engine to operate in its more economical four-cylinder mode for longer periods.
The key to Escalade's 2-Mode hybrid system is that the electric power used to propel the vehicle is generated by the hybrid system itself. When the brakes are applied or the vehicle is coasting, the electric motors within the hybrid system create electricity that is stored in the 300-volt battery. This stored energy is used to move the vehicle and the regenerative braking cycle is renewed.
The 2-Mode Hybrid system provides seamless, dependable power on demand in an efficient package. In fact, its electric motor is less than half the size of those in single-mode hybrid systems. This technology was developed and is still used in fleets of hybrid transit buses on the streets today in dozens of major North American cities. Scaled-down for use in full-size SUVs, the 2-Mode system delivers fuel savings where it is needed most - in large vehicles with high levels of capability. It is a core part of GM's energy diversity efforts, which are centered on reducing dependence on petroleum, improving fuel economy, reducing emissions and minimizing the automobile's impact on the environment.
Cadillac's smooth and quiet powerAcoustic details specific to the Hybrid model ensure it delivers the superior luxury that has been an Escalade hallmark since its inception. The details include:
• A new exhaust system and resonator specially tuned for the 6.0L LIVC engine's Active Fuel Management operation. It ensures comfortable interior acoustics and a pleasant exhaust note during both V-4 and V-8 operation
• An electrically driven, 300-volt air conditioning compressor reduces vibration and allows the HVAC system to cool the passenger compartment even when the gasoline engine is shut off. It includes the standard tri-zone climate system
• An electrically driven, 42-volt variable-assist power steering reduces vibration and provides up to a 0.5-mpg fuel economy improvement by reducing parasitic losses common in belt-driven hydraulic systems
• The Energy Storage System cooling system's internal fan is tuned to be quiet at low vehicle speeds, when the fan could more easily be heard by the occupants.

How To Master Inventory Management Of DME
Issue Number:
Case Example: How To Implement EOQC Suppose a large tertiary podiatry clinic performs a good deal of surgery and uses 10,000 self-absorbing bone fixation pins every year. Historically, it is known that the cost per pin is $200, and the annual inventory carrying cost per pin is $10. According to the above formula, the EOQC is 632, as follows: 2 (10,000)($200)/$10 = $400,000 Square root of $400,000 = 632 In other words, there are 16 orders per year (10,000/632 EOQC). The time between each order is 3.3 weeks (52 weeks/16 orders). Therefore, the vital economic questions of when and how much DME to order have been answered. Prior to final implementation, one must run the EOQC numbers using samples that are representative of the office's DME inventory base. This will help determine the overall short-term and long-term effects the calculation will have on office warehouse space, cash flows and business operations. Keep in mind that dramatic increases in inventory levels may not be immediately feasible. If this is the case, you may temporarily adjust the formula until you can make arrangements to handle the additional storage requirements and compensate for the effects on office cash flow. If the projection shows a decreasing inventory level and increasing order frequency, you may need to evaluate staffing, equipment and process changes to handle the increased activity. Finally, one should evaluate the values for order costs and carrying costs at least once per year, taking into account any changes in interest rates, storage costs and operational costs. What About Potential Drawbacks? EOQC may be a useful technique if there is an opportunity to change the current DME ordering policy of a medical practice or if the current policy is inadequate. Though it may appear that this equation would solidify purchase quantity, there are still other factors to consider. For example, a medical practice still needs to review the likelihood of a stock shortage, the length-of-time DME is kept on hand, quantity discounts that vendors may offer and product volume within the practice. Moreover, practice goals and strategies may sometimes conflict with EOQC methodology. Measuring DME performance solely by inventory turnover is a mistake. Some practices have achieved aggressive goals in increasing inventory turns only to find their bottom line has shrunk due to increased operational costs. While EOQC may not apply to every DME inventory situation, some practices will find it beneficial in at least some aspect of their operations. Whenever there is repetitive purchasing of DME, one should consider the proper use of EOQC. Though EOQC is generally recommended in practices where DME demand is relatively steady, one can apply the EOQC model to items with seasonal demand variability by going to shorter time periods for the EOQC calculation. One can simply divide the year into the increments in which annualized sales are relatively constant (i.e., summer, spring, fall and winter). Then apply the EOQC model separately to each period. During the transition between seasons, DME inventories would either be run down or built up with special seasonal orders. Just ensure that usage and carrying costs are based on the same time period. Final Thoughts EOQC is not a panacea that solves all DME inventory cost problems or easily adds to bottom line profits. There is much to consider before adopting an EOQC policy for all DME across an entire medical business enterprise. However, it is a good SCIM tool to consider when determining the best ordering policy to use for a DME intensive medical organization.

Posted in accentsColourDesignfocal pointInterior DesignTrends | Tags : 2013, colour, emerald, pantone
This year's colour is Emerald Green; lively, bold and radiant … it's a colour which is elegant and beautiful. Pantone 17-5641 provides a sense of balance and harmony and I believe this to be true in any of it's applications. This year, we'll see Emerald as a prominent colour in fashion, design, decor and home interior trends. I believe it is, without doubt, a perfectly colour to provide calm, serenity and balance in any home or interior design.
Eatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone color institute® says: 'the most abundant hue in nature, the human eye sees more green than any other color in the spectrum…as it has throughout history, multifaceted emerald continues to sparkle and fascinate. symbolically, emerald brings a sense of clarity, renewal and rejuvenation, which is so important in today's complex world. this powerful and universally-appealing tone translates easily to both fashion and home interiors.'
These are just a few beautiful home interiors I've found which are dominated by the colour emerald …
Even if you don't want to use a lot of emerald in your interior you could always look to touch your space with a few small accents …

I used Crossbreed clips because they are my favorite of the ones Ive tried. I combined several makers ideas, Crossbreed, Mtac and Tucker to get the combination of features I liked.

Watch a video Watch our product demo video Front Back Remote Photos (7) Video View larger Soundstream VR-931NB DVD receiver Item #: 530VR931NB 8 Reviews This item is no longer available. Original Price: $349.99 Shop all In-dash Video Receivers Need help? 1.888.955.6000 Email Chat Ask an expert advisor No pressure, no commission — just lots of good advice from our highly trained staff.
by Ken Nail Installation Note: Soundstream's VR-931NB requires adequate clearance for its oversized display when mounted in your vehicle's dashboard. Please call us at 1-888-955-6000 if you require assistance in determining if it will work in your vehicle. Think outside the box Soundstream's VR-931NB DVD receiver isn't cut from the same cloth as most in-dash multimedia units. Most are built to be installed in a double-DIN (4" tall) dash opening, so the screen size is by necessity limited to about 7" max. Soundstream's built the chassis of the VR-931NB so it fits into a single-DIN (2" tall) opening, and they've placed a detachable 9.3" screen onto the front. This receiver isn't for every car, or every installation, but if you've got some imagination it could be a real show-stopper in your dash, or a cool addition to an RV. And since the screen is detachable, it can serve double duty as a desktop media player when paired up with Soundstream's KS-1 dock. Touchscreen controls make it easy to select sources Bluetooth® is built in The VR-931NB supports the latest in Bluetooth connectivity technology for quick data transfer, meaning crystal-clear hands-free phone calls and great-sounding audio streaming. Your phone book info transfers in moments, so it's easy to make calls and identify incoming callers. And you'll be able to control your streaming music without having to use your phone or other device to change tracks. Media variety and options With Soundstream's IC-3 cable (not included), you can connect your iPod® or iPhone® to this receiver, and control your music with the touchscreen. Soundstream has also equipped this receiver with a USB port and SD™ card slot for plugging in storage devices with up to 32 GB of capacity, so you should never be at a loss for music. And of course it plays CDs and DVDs, along with recordable discs loaded with MP3, WMA, and AAC files. If you've got a gaming console or other A/V sources, plug them into the front A/V input. When you're ready for some video entertainment, set the brake and enjoy video from DVDs, USB, or SD cards. Add GPS guidance You can add Soundstream's NAVIBOX-2 module to this receiver, and view maps of the U.S. and Canada on your receiver's big screen. The module also gives you access to over 12 millions points of interest, so you'll be able to find the restaurant, hotel, or shop you want quickly. Your receiver will anounce street names as you approach a turn, and you can even select a 2D or 3D map view. Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls? In most vehicles, you can use a special adapter to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and this receiver, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls. Note: Bluetooth compatibility of this device may vary, depending on your phone and service provider. Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver. Installation Tip: This receiver's faceplate is 5-1/2" tall. To determine if this receiver will fit in your vehicle, check the area 6" straight down from the very top of your factory radio. If you don't encounter any obstructions, gauges, or important vents, you should be able to install this Soundstream. You may have to improvise a little, but it will be worth it to get this cool-looking receiver in your dash. Product Highlights:General features:DVD/CD receiver with AM/FM tunerbuilt-in internal amp (14 watts RMS/45 watts peak x 4 channels)9.3" detachable motorized touchscreen display (9-1/8"W x 5-9/16"H x 7/8"D)face also serves as a desktop media player with optional dock (padded carrying case included)built-in Bluetooth for hands-free calling and audio streamingfits single-DIN dash openingsAudio/video features:plays CDs, DVDs, USB memory devices, and SD cards (see Details for full capabilities)bass and treble controls with 5 preset EQ curvesbass boostlow-pass filtersubwoofer controlsExpandability:iPod control: Soundstream IC-3 cable required for iPod and iPhone controlinputs: front USB input, front A/V input, rear-view camera inputoutputs: A/V output, 6-channel preamp outputs (2-volt front, rear, subwoofer)compatible with Soundstream Navibox-2 GPS navigation moduleOther information:compatible with most factory steering wheel audio controls (adapter required)warranty: 1 yearOur 60-day money-back guarantee DVD receivers: They're not just for movies DVD receivers add a new level of entertainment to your vehicle. You can watch a movie on the screen when you're parked on a Saturday night, or play a DVD through your rear seat video setup on the road. Touchscreen receivers allow you to breeze through menus with the tip of your finger. Most DVD receivers feature a USB input for audio from your iPod, and the ability to add an adapter that allows video to display on the screen. Some receivers even offer connections for a center speaker and a subwoofer, so you can build a full-fledged theater in your car, just like at home.
great product Written By 434rew, charlottesville on Sunday, June 09, 2013 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value the best deck ive had for the money.. nothing out there in this price range can compare
Soundstream Written By CriaCriaaa38, Buford, GA on Tuesday, April 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value The 9" Soundstream VR-931NB has a really great look. I was able to put a 9" touchscreen in my 1 /1/2 DIN dash. The "coolness" factor is there. Although it covered up my truck's temperature controls (I drive a 2001 GMC Sierra truck). It also would hit my gear shifter everytime I needed to eject something or get to my temperature controls. This deck has a lot of options when it comes to sound control. There were a lot of cons for me. In addition to the ones already listed; I also had issues with the iPod/bluetooth thing they have going on with this thing. I like to use the bluetooth on my phone to stream music. If you do this you will not be able to see any of the song information or even the current time on the display. i always had to look down at my phone for this information. Stupid. If you want to see this information you can plug your phone in to the deck. Even then things are really confusing. They made it really hard to navigate through songs, artists, and albums. I don't like the bubbly display icons either. It makes it seem like a little kids toy or something. I also was not able to see any album art. I wasn't able upload any pictures from my phone. This thing is not very iPhone friendly. I think I've gotten that point across. I believe it would work better with an iPod. I was really disapointed because I really wanted a touchscreen in my 1 1/2 DIN dash. I am going to exchange it for the Parrot - Asteroid 55W x 4 Apple® iPod®-Ready In-Dash Deck with 3.2" Screen.

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Was easy to install and operate. I like the expansion possibilities,and the free kit and antenna adapter.thanks crutchfield. Pros: Great appearance
A Good Product Written By Chris, Monroe, LA on Monday, January 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I really only have one (to me major)complaint with this unit and that is the IPOD Software interface. I am using the unit with an IPOD Classic 160 GB. Say you are listening to The Eagles and you want to go to The Rolling Stones. When you press the menu button and select the artist category you must start with "a" every time instead of it going to the last selected artist (in this example the Eagles). If you have a large library this is somewhat tedious to always have to start at "a". I will say that there were a couple of times that it seemed to "menu up" the way I feel that it should but this was not consistent. The up/down selection of artists, songs is rather sloooooow too. The other wasted feature is the direct entry number option. Who can remember which song is number 12,345? To me, this feature would be better as an alphabetical selector. The unit does have a lot of features and sounds pretty good. It is much better than my poor old factory unit. The other thing I'd love to see in future versions is a HD radio tuner. IPOD Album art display would be cool too. Also I'm still waiting for the NAV module to be back in stock. Certainly a usuable unit. Pros: Easy to install, good display, good sound, graphics are easy to read, tons of features Cons: IPOD User Interface

Watch Out!: Social Media Can Lead to Offline Crime
What are the odds that you will be the victim of a home robbery in your lifetime?
As more and more individuals use social media for shopping, socializing, and keeping in touch with friends and family, they can expose themselves to a dangerous element: criminals. Unfortunately for many homeowners and renters, one post or image too many on social media can lead to a robbery, or worse.
In 2011, according to the Pew Research Center, 65 percent of adults using the Internet claim they turn to social networking sites, with nine percent having opted into the Facebook and Twitter functions that label their posts with a location. In the meantime, a report from British-based insurance firm Legal & General, notes that 38 percent of social media users post status information regarding vacation plans, while 33 percent go to social networking sites to report they are gone for a weekend.
In the event you are a frequent user of social media, there are some precautions you can take to lessen the chances that you will end up victimized.
* Protect your privacy: While it may be fun and exciting to let the social media world know you are away for a weekend or longer, use your head. Even though many individuals you trust may be reading such details or seeing your vacation pictures online, it just takes that one criminal to ruin it all. Wait until you return from your trip to post images on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and other such sites. If you are out of town for the day or longer, wait until you return home to share or tweet about it. If you stop and think about it, most people don't really care that you are traveling, so why put yourself and your possessions in a vulnerable position to begin with?
* Hide your location: It's not just your home or apartment -- you could be placing your life in jeopardy, too. For women especially, don't share or tweet that you are on your way home from an event, especially when the location is involved. Criminals do monitor social networking sites such as Foursquare, Facebook and Twitter, looking for exactly such information.
* Don't place possessions in peril: Don't use social media to brag about that large coin or doll collection you have at home, even with a home security system in place. Especially if you post images on social media of the items and where in the residence they are located, it just makes it easier for the thief to strike, and quickly at that. If you want to share such photos online, don't make it obvious where they are in the residence, do not give out your neighborhood, and never share or tweet that you will be going on vacation.
While there is much to enjoy and learn from social media, don't put yourself or your residence/possessions in line to be the next statistic.
