How to Sew a Baby Hat:
- Use the diagram to draw your pattern on paper. The hat should be 7 inches wide with a length of 5 inches or more to the rounded top of the hat. You can make the rabbit ears as long as you wish. Cut the pattern out
- Fold your knit fabric in two. Place the pattern on the fabric and pin both together. Do not place the pattern on the fold. Cut two pieces
- Take the pins out and remove the pattern from the cut pieces. Place the pieces together, right sides facing, and pin
- Tack the pieces and remove the pins. Sew the sides, top and ears of the hat with a permanent stitch, using a sewing machine or a needle and thread. Remove the temporary tacking stitches
- Fold the hem of the hat up about ½ inch and then fold another ½ inch. Pin the folds down and then tack. Take the pins out and then sew the hem with a permanent stitch
- Cut off any loose threads and then turn the finished hat right side out
How to Knit Baby Hats:
- Figure out the circumference of the child's head. If possible, measure it. Generally, premature babies are 12 inches in circumference, small newborns are 13 inches in circumference, and large newborns are 14 inches in circumference, while a 1 year old baby has an average head circumference of 17 inches
- Cast on using your yarn and needles. Make a slipknot around one needle, and keep making backwards loops. Continue looping until you have slightly less than the approximate measurement, in inches, of the hat you've chosen to make when the stitches are slightly stretched on the needle
- Begin to knit by inserting needle 1 through the back of the first loop on needle 2. Wrap the yarn counter clockwise around needle 1, creating a new loop. Keep this new loop on needle 1 using tension, and slide needle 1 out from beneath the old loop. Slide the old loop off of needle 2, letting it fall. Do not transfer it to needle 1
- Continue the motions of Step 3 until you reach the end of a row. Turn needle 1 around, and begin the process again
- Continue knitting each row until the hat is the approximate height needed to cover the baby's head. This should be about 5 inches
- Cut the thread, leaving a long tail. Thread this tail of yarn through a tapestry needle
- Thread the tapestry needle and yarn through the stitches at the top of the hat. Pull tightly on the threaded needle, and pull the stitches off of the knitting needle
- Sew a seam down the back of the hat, and secure any loose yarn ends with the tapestry needle
Package Included:
- 1 x Lovely Rabbit Cotton Earflap Baby Hat

03-05-2011- Other Thoughts: This is a great hat. It is very wide and shades her entire face and even most of her shoulders. I but this on her when we were in the pool in her floaty seat and she was almost entirely shaded. Baby is 5 months old & 18 lbs, I got the larger size and it fit her fine with just adjusting the cord.

Coolant Temp Sensor vs. Temperature Switch
I was just looking at some parts on AutoZone and saw that there is a Coolant Temp. Sensor and a Temperatrue Switch. They look similar with slight differences and different part numbers. I know what the Coolant Temperature Sensor does but what does the Temperature Switch do?
02-23-2010, 02:43 PM #2The Coolant Temp Sensor feeds temp readings to the PCM. The temp sensor either lights an idiot light or provides signal to the dash mounted temperature gage.
See Wells ignition article on the CTS: Wells
The CTS is the one located near the t-stat housing and the TS is in the block on the drivers side towards the front of the engine.There is no way to happiness....happiness is the way.:yipi:

The definitively violent Mortal Kombat fighting game series is re-invented on high-definition consoles in its ninth full production, a plainly titled release that both moves the supernatural combat action forward and returns it to its roots. Rendered in full 3D, the hand-to-hand battles play out strictly on a 2D plane, as in the original Mortal Kombat games for 16-bit consoles, emphasizing keenly timed blocks, counter-moves, and ranged attacks. More so than in any recent Mortal Kombat game, the fighting action is designed for true hardcore players, with each character presenting a deep system of special attacks to master and relative weaknesses to overcome. Each character can also execute a full-fledged fatality move, in classic MK form. Leaving aside the inter-dimensional diversions of the most recent Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, the game's unusually involving single-player story begins after the events of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, but then returns to the events of the first three games to revisit the series' original lore. Gaining a trans-temporal awareness, the enigmatic thunder-god Raiden is central to the plot, but gamers take the roles of several different combatants as they progress through the campaign. In all, over two-dozen characters are playable in this edition of Mortal Kombat, each uniquely modeled and individually animated. Multiplayer fighting is thoroughly supported, in both same-console and online options, with a selection of competitive and cooperative modes. The Best Buy exclusive includes a code to download the classic Sub-Zero character skin and classic Sub-Zero fatality move. | |

They spent nearly two decades since it first appeared in Mortal Kombat. In an era where "xylikia" with cartoon heroes gave and took, while Capcom's Street Fighter conquer the Midway dared to offer something different that nobody had thought. With realistic graphics, portrayed different types of fighters but were immediately known, while the game was singled out for harsh violence produced by the Fatalities.
The sequel that followed had a positive response, but then was not the same. In Mortal Kombat III absent main characters and one version each year, the whole stage reminded ... squeezed. From 2004 until today, Midway has turned to 3D, releasing three next-gen versions. This year, three years after its last issue, we have a reboot of the franchise, as all good old characters reappear and once again becomes the gameplay 2D. So to see whether it gives the new formula, which takes care of the newly NetherRealm Studios, many of which the staff previously worked for Midway.
Cult movie
In Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe we first development plot and the feature back and Mortal Kombat. Known to all our heroes talking to each other, sometimes throwing and no xyliki and the whole scene refers to a film cult. We did not expect any huge script, just to humor there, the way events unfold is quite curious.
The Story Mode is divided into chapters. Each chapter undertakes a specific character. But the poor quality of dialogue and that battle again and again with them and nobody is killed, it becomes somewhat xeneroto. Fatalities in the Story Mode there (are found in everything else). Lacking even the action sequences of MK vs DC, where it falls on deaf ears at the time of the battle and had to press the buttons in the correct order. Your interest is maintained simply by 'dry' battles and the simple curiosity of what will happen afterwards.
The overall experience gained from the Story Mode took around 4 hours, with no possibility to skip the cutscenes, which to most would seem tedious. Save and Load does not exist, so when you Quit simply continue from where you left off and even watching it again last videos played.
This year's roster consists of all known fighters who knew from the Mortal Kombat I and II, by adding more memorable than the next that followed. All veterans are here. The Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Johnny Cage, Raiden, Sonya, Kano and Reptile from the first part. The Baraka, Jax, Kitana, Mileena and Kung Lao from the second part. So the most memorable from the third party, as well and the Shang Tsung, longer eligible. We say a roster of 27 characters. However, some of them are unlocked only after you quit the game.
On the issue of choice status, choose the one you used before, after review of the best known. The balancing is not achieved the ultimate degree, as we meet once privileged persons, such as Scorpion and Sub-Zero, mainly because of the powerful attacks of covering every possible scenario.
The Playstation 3 is available and the Kratos, which blends perfectly with the climate. It uses the blades to be identified quickly perform combos with them and has some impressive special moves like lightning-fast run in flames. The Fatality of it is the most bloody and cuts in both the victim with the use of blades.
For those interested, two other new characters, Kenshi and Scarlet, are available to purchase via DLC. In short, we have a total of 29 characters on the Xbox 360 version and 30
Mortal Kombat has been a series that is most notable for its gore and hilarious use of overly-violent fighting. It had a humble beginning as a series that eventually exploded in popularity with Mortal Kombat 2 and Mortal Kombat 3. After that, the series began to taper off, and the quality began to falter greatly with the jump to 3D. So much so that the series was eventually sold off.
Naturally, I was a little skeptical of this release of Mortal Kombat, as the previous installments have been less than stellar. I was able to get the game used for cheaper than expected, so I took a chance and honestly? It was well worth it.
The game returns to its roots. Even though it's a 3D game, it plays like a classic 2D fighter. And the developers focused more on quality than quantity, which was a huge plaguing issue for Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. Each character has distinct fighting styles, moves, and characteristics. However, as everyone still has overall the same basic moveset (down + punch = uppercut; back + kick = sweep; etc.), the characters themselves are all relatively similar. Though this is also positive considering that it's easily approachable by newcomers.
The game itself plays very smoothly, even though the game does seem to cheat at times (seriously- the AI seems a little too good at times and Shao Kahn (the final boss) does a tremendous amount of damage in a very little amount of time). Additional modes are welcomed, such as tag-team co-op to play online and through the arcade mode. Old favorites such as Test Your Might return as well. There's also a very detailed story mode, but it can be a bit awkward at times, and even at the end you may be left scratching your head, especially since it hints heavily at another installment of Mortal Kombat coming soon. After you finish the story, you'll understand what I mean when I say that it's a little confusing to continue the series considering.
With that in mind, the game itself still feels relatively sparse. You can collect koins and such currency to use in the Krypt which has returned. However, unless you care a lot about the game's music and art, there's not much to be found in exchange for coins. If you don't care about collecting the art and music, you'll likely end up like me and end up with a stockpile of koins with nothing to spend them on. There are also only two characters that you can unlock in the game: Quan Chi and Cyber Sub Zero. The boss characters are locked throughout the game, which is kind of disappointing, but also very understandable as they could easily break the game.
And finally, there is a noticeable gap between character tiers. Some characters really are just better than others. If you don't believe me, you can consult Bradygames' guide and see the tiers. Some characters are difficult to deal with because of their special moves, and in the AI's hands, some characters use the special moves to disturbing efficiency. Though this idea isn't anything new, as even popular games like Marvel VS Capcom 2 have notable tiers, it can kind of take away from the game when the difficulty suddenly spikes.
The bottom line though comes to whether or not the game is fun, and it is. I'm not sure I would recommend it at full price, but the game is very enjoyable for a fighting game. Compared to the previous installments, it's a fun breath of fresh air with fun modes, but not a lot of substance.
What can I say. Its Komabt Time !!! If your a fan of the old mortal komabt, and you remember the best of the series.., then this game will blow your mind.

"As many fighting games, Mortal Kombat series has always had a apparent spot in the fighting game genre. Its most up to date personification is not much different, pushing away the love to the extreme with over the top attack moves that see you ripping your enemies in pieces, impaling them on spikes, and stomping on their chests while their organs wobble around like moving tetherballs.
Each fight you have is marked, taking you on a wonderful journey that bring up the narrative from the very first three Mortal Kombat games. The story starts where Mortal Kombat: Armageddon left off, with Thunder God Raiden under attack from Shao Kahn, an evil emperor hell-bent on merging Outworld with Earth Realm – an insane process that threatens to end all life on the planet. Raiden sends a message to his past self in order to prevent that outcome, which manifests itself as a series of visions. Though he's not really sure what the visions mean, Raiden begins to help the people of Earth Realm compete in the Mortal Kombat tournament, which decides the fate of the two worlds. By using the time travel mechanic, the story mode does a great job of introducing new players to the awesome series. If you're not a fan of cut scenes you can't skip them, even if you've already watched them when you resume a game. You also cannot choose to replay different sections of Story mode, even after you've completed it.
You take the role of the actor Johnny Cage, who has a chesty personality. You play as different fighters as you progress through the story, most of them made an appearance in the first three series. They include classic fighters such as Scorpion, Sub Zero, and Liu Kang, and later series. You're also taken through a lot of environments, which look fantastic, they are full of detail. PlayStation 3 users have the very option of playing in 3D. Each time you change characters in Story mode you learn about their origins for joining the tournament. Each character is voiced very well, and because there's some motivation for the fighters, there's more than just gameplay to keep you interested until the end of the five hour narrative.
Not to say the gameplay isn't enough to keep you entertained, very far from it. Your main objective is to knock out your enemy using a variety of kicks, punches, and special attacks. Pulling off tricky moves is difficult, there are four primary attack buttons, but rather than creating high and low attacks, each button now corresponds to a limb.
With all that said, Mortal Kombat is one of the most complete fighting games on the market. The come back to the 2D fighting genre has made Mortal Kombat better content for new players. Also, not any fighting game allows you to attack your enemies in the groin area!"
|As I can only say..., THIS GAME KICKS SERIOUS EFFIN ARSE !!!!
IF you got ps3 or 360.., GET THIS GAME !!! You wont be dissappointed !!|
If you grew up playing arcade games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter 2 in the arcades, this is an excellent game that brings Mortal Kombat back to its more competitive roots. While the 3D games were kind of fun, they lacked the mortal kombat feel and the fighting was slow and shallow. Specials mid combo were highly limited and being unable to cancel from normals into special moves really hampered the already shallow fighting mechanics. And though the characters had different fighting styles, they largely remained the same due to the limitations of the fighting engine. They were fun games, but they could have been so much better. When the PS3 and 360 were released, MK vs DC came out and though it was largely considered not to be a tournament worthy fighter and made no pretences to be such, it had the best mechanics in a 3D mortal kombat game. As specials were again at the forefront of the mechanics, and not just simple projectiles that can easily be avoided, it helped set the characters apart even more. Despite not having the extreme levels of blood and gore found in previous Mortal Kombat games, the gameplay had a fair bit of depth whilest being very accessible to gamers,and a step in the right direction. Had they simply made a more refined MK vs DC for a new MK game, I would have been content as I didn't really care for the franchise being a tournament worthy game. Now comes Mortal Kombat 9. While still more accessible than street fighter 4, though I will say I believe the difference is largely due to the strict rules for linking normal attacks to make combos is SF4 which made it difficult for many people, MK9 is a more competitive, tournament worthy and balanced game compared to previous entries. The fighting is faster and I dare say smoother than SSF4, but a lot slower than Marvel vs Capcom 3.
The game played well. My son felt a rating of 1 thru 5 it would be a 2. He states that the game is very boring with only 4 levels. The game was very easy to master. Had he known this he would not have asked for the game as a gift but something more exciting and challenging. He felt that maybe if the games had more levels with a bit more excitment it might have been worth the money that was paid for it. My son intends on selling the game hopefully someone else will find in more fun than he did.

A police chief in Florida is now saying Tiger Woods' wife used a golf club to smash out the back window to help get him out of the car.
Windermere Police Chief Daniel Saylor told the AP that Elin Nordegren told officers she was in the house when she heard the accident and rushed outside. Saylor says officers found Woods laying in the street with his wife hovering over him.
Saylor says Woods was in and out of consciousness when his officers arrived -- he had cuts on his lips and blood in his mouth.
She was probably the one BEATING him with the golf club and they both changed their story when the cops got there because apparently he's been cheating on her.
She probably read the Enquirer about his unfaithfulness, there was a blowup, he stormed out and wrecked the car. She came out with a golf club to finish the job.
#9 Why is it that white men with no money are jealous of Black men? Worry about your own love life (or lack thereof) and let rich men who cheat on their wives worry about theirs.
She could have chased him out of the house with a golf club and smashed his window- thus explaining his exit at 230 in the MORNING- and he drove to escape her, hit the hydrant then the tree, knocked his head, and she pulled him out while she thought of an excuse. It is ALL so fishy!
Wow, that's smart. Move him right after an accident without emergency personnel. Brilliant play, there, wifey.
HAPPY HOLIDAY'S Elin and Tiger! The holiday's are a time to enjoy our families and be thankful for what we have. In your case, however, they are a time of misery and pain. I guess money really doesn't buy happiness. Hope the tail on the side was worth it Tiger because you are going to be paying for it for the rest of your life. Elin, call me.
Was he crying like a baby after his wife through his ass out of the house for cheating? Were his tear-filled eyes, the reason he veered onto the sidewalk? Or, was this a sad attempt at attention? You read it here first. A faked suicide.

Two whole dollars. Two hundred extra pennies you could use in any wishing fountain you like, because this is America, and you are free to do so.
Seriously though, this will be a great show. Joining The Twilight Sad on the bill are fellow Scots Errors, and Landing, out of New Haven. You can also mosey across the parking lot over to The Outer Space during the show to watch the election, if you'd like.

The San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers each released their seven-man inactive reports, and there are a mild surprise on Green Bay's side. The big news for the Packers is that free safety Morgan Burnett is inactive. Burnett practiced Wednesday and Thursday, but had to sit out Friday's practice after aggravating a hamstring issue. He will join cornerback Casey Hayward on the sideline, which leaves the Packers a bit short-handed in their secondary. It will be interesting to see how the 49ers attack the Green Bay secondary.
Nnamdi Asomugha is active, which means he should be good to go as the 49ers third cornerback. The 49ers will deactivate LaMichael James, as he recovers from his MCL sprain. Chris Harper and Jon Baldwin are both inactive as they continue to get acclimated to the 49ers offense. The 49ers acquired Baldwin in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs two weeks ago. They signed Harper off the Seattle Seahawks practice squad earlier this week.
49ers: RB LaMichael James, WR Chris Harper, DT Will Tukuafu, QB B.J. Daniels, WR Jon Baldwiin, G Joe Looney, LB Nate Stupar.
Packers: CB Casey Hayward, S Morgan Burnett, LB Nate Palmer, LB Sam Barrington, G Lane Taylor, TE Brandon Bostick, DE Josh Boyd

Cedar Rapids Weather
Iowa Stuns Michigan State In Double Overtime, 19-16By Marc Morehouse, Reporter
EAST LANSING, Mich. — When the world ends and planet earth is a frozen cue ball in space, there will be cockroaches and there will be Hawkeyes.
Iowa had it when it needed it in a 19-16 double-overtime victory Saturday before 70,211 fans at Spartan Stadium. Michigan State (4-3, 1-2 Big Ten) controlled tempo behind monster running back Le'Veon Bell. The Spartans defense kept Iowa's offense crumpled most of the day, allowing just 12 yards on 13 carries in the first half. On the road, against the Big Ten's best defense, in the rain, into a decent southerly wind, after sputter city for 3 1/2 quarters, facing a first-and-24 after a clipping penalty and trailing 13-6, the Hawkeyes (4-2, 2-0) found it when they needed it, when they hadn't had it all day. Running back Mark Weisman's left ankle ended up in a walking boot in the postgame, but he scored a 5-yard TD to tie the game 13-13 with 55 seconds left. Mike Meyer's 42-yard field goal in the second overtime ended up winning it. "Everything went right," said Meyer, who went 4-for-4 in a game where every point mattered. "It was a great snap and a great hold." It took 60 minutes and two OTs, but everything did finally go right for Iowa. The Hawkeyes found it when the offense faced a first-and-24 from its own 18, needing a TD to tie the game. They found it on a second-and-26 during the drive. They found it in the end, when defensive tackle Louis Trinca-Pasat stuck his left hand in the air and just flicked an Andrew Maxwell pass that went through Keith Mumphery's hands and into Iowa cornerback Greg Castillo's arms. "I didn't know what to do at first," said Castillo, a fifth-year senior who started because junior B.J. Lowery didn't make the trip. "It took a second for it to sink in." Take a second, let this one sink in. Hawkeyes sprinted onto the field. Hawkeyes skipped over to the corner of Spartan Stadium to celebrate with fans who made the trip. Hawkeyes rattled the rafters of a cramped lockerroom with a fast and furious rendition of the school fight song. Iowa quarterback James Vandenberg threw an interception on the game's first possession. Bell, who rushed 29 times for 140 yards, tromped in from the 14. Dan Conroy kicked a 24-yard field goal and the Spartans led 10-0 early in the second quarter. Meyer kicked field goals of 23 and 28 yards to keep the Hawkeyes alive. And then finally — in the fourth quarter, after eight Iowa punts and seven three-and-outs — a shear of light. First-and-24, second-and-26, they found it. Vandenberg completed a 35-yard pass to wide receiver Keenan Davis for a first down on the second-and-26 play. Vandenberg finished with 134 passing yards, so 26 percent of his total yardage came on this play. "I felt it turn when it was first-and-25," Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said about the set up to the final drive. "Oh boy, that's not good. Huge play, and we didn't make many big plays today, but huge play by James and Keenan." You know how quarterbacks and receivers always talk about "windows" to describe the moment when a receiver breaks open. This wasn't a window as much as it was a mail slot. "It wasn't really a big window, but it was a window we had to get through," said Davis, who caught six passes for 65 yards. "It was a play we had to make, something we had to do." Then, on third-and-6 from Michigan State's 45, Iowa offensive coordinator Greg Davis went all the way back to week 1 and called a zone run to the left. Weisman broke through for a 37-yard gain to MSU's 8. Then, he suffered an ankle injury on his 5-yard TD run on third down that tied it. "Maybe it caught them off guard," Weisman, who finished with 26 carries for 116 yards, said about the 37-yarder on third down. "Maybe not . . . I think it was the offensive line. They set the edge out there. They make it easy." If the Davis completion and Weisman runs were shears of light, the rest of it for Iowa was a series of low percussions. Iowa won the overtime toss and forced MSU into a field goal on its possession in the first OT. Iowa settled for Meyer's 27-yarder when Vandenberg threw incomplete to running back Greg Garmon on third down, making it 16-16. Iowa gained one yard in the second OT possession. Meyer saved the Hawkeyes with his 42-yarder. "I think the greatest piece of advice I've gotten was when Nate Kaeding [former all-American kicker at Iowa now with the San Diego Chargers] told me to treat every kick like it was a Super Bowl-winning kick," said Meyer, who's made 14 of 15 this season. "I take that mentality into everything." Trinca-Pasat's left hand, probably a fingertip, was the final low percussion. It led to the end of Michigan State's world. "I think we have to look at where we are as a program right now and what's the next step for us," MSU coach Mark Dantonio said. Iowa danced with its fans in the corner of Spartan Stadium. The Hawkeyes were the survivors on this cold, wet cue ball. Conversation GuidelinesBe KindDon't use abusive, offensive, threatening, racist, vulgar or sexually-oriented language.

In 1877, Lord Acton delivered two addresses to a room of scholars and religious leaders, entitled History of Freedom in Antiquity and History of Freedom in Christianity. These speeches typify his life's work a as champion of liberty. In them, Acton traces the history of freedom through ancient cultures to the Christianity of the Middle Ages. In doing so, he references the turning point for liberty in Athens, "Government by consent superseded government by compulsion, and the pyramid which had stood on a point was made to stand upon its base." The 1877 Legacy Society represents the base of this "pyramid of liberty." It is comprised of those individuals that wish to support the ideas of freedom and virtue and are committed to preserving them for the future.

HIEs Essential in Fee-for-Value Era
"As we roll toward ACOs, we're going to see more providers having to contract with some sort of entity, and there's a financial risk involved. The better the performance you have and can show proof of, the better rewarded providers will be financially," says Snell. "Over 2,500 primary care providers in Central Indiana receive reports through IHIE's Quality Health First program and they can see how they compare with their peers on prevention and chronic disease management. That also ties to the financial incentives that hospitals and payers have with providers—if they hit their quality marks, that can add up to significant dollars. And that's beginning to help us see significant improvements in the quality indicators for those participating providers. Now we have the whole medical community moving toward pay-for-value and away from
pay-for-service," explains Snell.
Snell says that Indiana has come a long way from when it started its HIE and now has five, noting that the issue of working with competitors was a very real one when it began.
"You have to work with your competitors because patients are going to expect providers to be able to access their clinical information wherever they happen to be, and not being able to do so will become a competitive disadvantage," says Snell.
With the majority of HIE organizations, governance is coming from the participants, [so] it's unlikely that the "wrong" information will get shared, Snell says. "HIE isn't a Wild West–type of business; health information is tightly regulated through HIPAA and state laws, and maintaining business security and confidentiality of that information is paramount for our participants," says John Kansky, vice president of strategy and planning for IHIE. "We have very detailed data usage agreements that reference the powers of our governance body. If we come up with an idea for how to use data, the governance body has to approve it before we can pursue it."
Though regional HIE networks are the first step for many healthcare organizations, the future of HIEs lies in eventually linking all HIE networks nationwide. But before healthcare can achieve this goal healthcare leaders must make a clinical and financial leap of faith by working with competitors, says Gravell.
"For CHP, HIE is something we are looking at for every community we're involved in," he says. "We feel strongly that from both a financial and IT perspective using HIE is a more cost-effective way to move information, and having access to that information in real-time is the right thing to do for our patients."

Longer charge cable
Anyone have any recommendations where to get a longer charge cable like around 6ft long
Sent from my GT-N8013 using Android Central Forums - 12-27-2012, 07:31 AM #2
Re: Longer charge cable
In my experience, definitely from some internet outlet. If price is an issue, don't go to your local carrier store or the phone equipment section of a warehouse store. I found a net dealer who offered a usb extension cable, 3 m long, for what equals to app. 2 us dollars plus shipping.
To me it doesn't matter that it's an extension cable, i.e. it doesn't have a micro usb plug that goes directly in the phone. Instead I plug it in between the charger and the short, bundled cable. - 12-27-2012, 07:37 AM Thread Author #3
Re: Longer charge cable
An extension would work fine where did you buy from

Re: Longer charge cable

Re: Longer charge cable
I just got this one: Amazon.com: Aduro Samsung Galaxy Tablet Extra Long USB Charge & Sync Data Cable (6.5 feet) USB to 30 Pin, Galaxy Tab 7-Inch, 8.9-Inch,10.1-Inch: Computers & Accessories
Big improvement over the stock cable. - 12-27-2012, 11:06 AM Thread Author #7
Re: Longer charge cable
nice, I'm looking at something in the 10-15 foot range so probably going to go with an extender just need to know if it matters if its 2.0 or 3.0 USB

Homework Help
Better Students Ask More Questions.
5/6·1/2+2/3÷4/3 How do I solve this problem?
4 Answers | add yours
You would set this problem up as an order of operations problem.
First you eliminate parentheses
Second you eliminate exponents
Third you multiply and divide in order from left to right
Fourth you add and subtract in order from left to right.
Here is a sentence to help you remember what to do first.
Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally.
(parentheses) exponents multiply and divide add and subtract
reorder terms (when dividing fractions use the reciprocal of the second fraction and multiply them)
multiply fractions (you could cross multiply)
add fractions (be sure that the denominator for both fractions is the same, and add the numerators)
11/12 answer
Posted by marilynn07 on September 22, 2009 at 10:01 AM (Answer #1)
5/6.1/2+2/3 '/. 4/3
Reading: 5 diveded by 6multiplied by1 plus divided by 2 divided by3 divideb4 divided by 3.
The operation / or '/. are dividing operation.
The operation . is multiplication.
The operation + is addtion.
Procedure: In this case, division and multplication are of equal priority. So do them in first come first serve basis.The addition is last.
In 5/6*1/2+2/3'/.4/3, we take 5/6*1/2 first
5/6*1/2=5/12 + (1).
Now we take 2/3'/.4/3:
The result (1/6) divided by 3=(1/6)/3=1/18 (2)
Now do the addtion + between the result flagged at (1) and (2):
5/12+1/18. make them equivalent fractions with a common denominator 36:
5/12=5*3/(12*3) =15/36
So.5/12+1/18=15/36+2/36 =17/36=0.47222....
If you still have doubt check this with a scientific calculator, or a Ms exel and feed the data in the same fashion you posed here and check the result. They are programmed and order of operations are taken care of in them.
Most people may confuse with second term after plus + here while simplification:
2/3'/.4/3 is equivalent to 2divided by 3divided by4divided by3
Successive divisions are here. No parantesis. / and '/. are the same operations and no priority arises as they look in different shape. There is no freedom to pick any two successive numbers in the middle or last. So you have to effect the divsion from left only , 'On first come first serve basis'.
Therefore 2/3'/.4/3=2/3/4/3 does not give us the freedom to choose the last 4/3 first. So,2/3'/.4/3= 2/3/4/3 = 2/3 first and the result/4. Then divide by3. So,2/3'/.4/3=0.666.../4/3=0.166666/3=0.05555...... or
Hope this helps.

ONONDAGA COUNTY, N.Y. – There are some major changes coming in the look of Onondaga County government, both on the executive and legislative sides. A number of key appointments have been made by Onondaga County Executive Joanie Mahoney.
Long time republican County Legislator William Meyer is being appointed to a newly created post of Deputy Veterans Affairs Director.
In the meantime, the democratic floor leader of the legislature, Mark Stanczyk, will be leaving to take another new job, Deputy Commissioner of Community Services.
The County Executive's chief spokesman, Marty Skahen, is being named to a vacancy of Deputy County Parks Commissioner. Also, Ben Dublin, a former Mahoney aide who was caught up in a battle over an appointment to a legislative vacancy three years ago, is returning to county government as Mahoney's Chief of Staff.
The County Executive is responsible for appointing replacements for Meyer and Stanczyk on the legislature. There is no timeline being mentioned for those appointments.
