Description"Individually hand-crafted with the finest materials,
Silverstein Works™ presents the last ligature you will ever need."
Silverstein Works understands the journey shared by all musicians and what perfection means to them. A musician by nature is a perfectionist, always reaching for that which will always remain out of reach. Therein lies the true artistry and conflict of the musician who gives an instrument its voice. The right sound, the right pitch, the right inflection, tone, breath, response – the desire to always improve and perfect the sound, your sound, is a never-ending journey. In this journey the right instrument is like an extension of your own body; it should respond in exactly the way you want it to. You train it; you explore it and allow it to take part in the sound's artistry.
Our goal is not to make a simple product but to help create that experience, unrestrained by anything other than your own desire. The creators and contributors of our products understand what it takes to shape instruments and accessories that can help unlock your full potential while staying out of your way.
Silverstein Works and the Silverstein Ligature were born not out of the need to be perfect, but to enjoy and relish the pursuit of perfection.

Fripp Island is a beautiful private island located 19 miles from
downtown Beaufort and a world away from crowds, traffic, and stress.
The entire island is a Wildlife Sanctuary. Our natural treasures
include loggerhead turtles which steal ashore at night from May to
August to nest. Dolphins often can be sighted from the Fripp bridge
and the 18th hole of Ocean Point Golf Links. Deer, gulls, osprey,
egrets, storks, kingfishers, and herons abound on the island and you
may even spot an occasional bald eagle (in Spring) and an alligator
resting by a pond. The Audubon Club maintains a trail to view
wildlife, plants, and birds.
Trade your car in for a bicycle or golf cart and enjoy a slower pace
of life. Fripp island is only three and a half miles long and one
mile wide, so it never takes long to get anywhere. Captain John
Fripp Villa 101 is located oceanfront in the heart of the Island on the best beach area.
Amenity cards may be purchased at time of booking which allow access to two island golf
courses, ten tennis courts, swimming pools, restaurants, a
fitness center, recreation activities (fishing, crabbing, and
shrimping), Island excursions (sunset boat trips, shelling, dolphin
watch, and other cruises), and rentals of boats, bicycles, kayaks,
scooters, and golf carts, and several shops. Camp Fripp for ages 3-
12, includes daily activities like crabbing, shelling, crafts and
all kinds of educational programs to help the children learn more
about nature.
For the avid golfer, Fripp offers two exceptionally beautiful and
challenging golf courses. One was designed by George Cobb and
features spectacular oceanfront views (the 18th hole is located just
steps away), while the other was designed by PGA champion Davis Love
III. Fripp Island has an extensive leisure trail system that winds
through the property. These trails are ideal for bicycling, jogging,
walking, and roller blading.
Fripp Island is located off the coast of Beaufort, South Carolina,
the site of many historic homes. Famous movies such as "The Big
Chill," "The Great Santini," "The Prince of Tides," "Forrest Gump,"
and "The Jungle Book" have had scenes filmed in Beaufort and on
Fripp. The author, Pat Conroy owns a home on Fripp. Fine and casual
dining can be found in Beaufort.
Shopping is available in many specialty boutiques on and off the
waterfront. Festivals include the Spring Garden Walk, Soft Shell
Craft Festival in April, A Taste of Beaufort in early May, Gullah
Festival during Memorial Day weekend, Independence Day on July 4,
Water Festival in July, the Shrimp Festival in October, the Fall
Festival of Houses & History, Heritage Days in November, Holiday
events in December, Black History Month in February, and Great Chefs
of the South in late February. See Beaufort South Carolina website
for more information.
Fripp Island is just 1.25 hours north of Savannah, Georgia and two
hours south of Charleston, South Carolina. Hunting Island State Park
is just across the Fripp Island bridge with bike trails, nature
walks, miles of beach, and the Hunting Island Lighthouse. Our family
has vacationed and lived in Fripp for more than 30 years. We have
fallen in love with Fripp Island, and we know you will too.

Authorities said a 35-year-old Napa County man was killed Sunday afternoon after he apparently parachuted off Mount St. Helena and crashed.
Walden Grindle traveled the world in pursuit of his love of BASE jumping and since 2002 was manager of geographical information systems at Jack Neal & Son Vineyard Management.
Authorities Sunday said it was unclear what the St. Helena man, who recently was married, was doing prior to his death, other than he apparently hiked up a fire trail to the top of the mountain, where he jumped with some type of parachute.
The Napa County Sheriff's Office, which initially reported it as a paragliding accident, later said Grindle was found with a "speed parachute."
Grindle called someone on a cellphone after he apparently crashed to report that he was injured and that he had possibly broken his hip, Sheriff's Sgt. Doug Pace said.
He said Grindle also activated an emergency beacon that notified the GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center, which in turn contacted sheriff's emergency dispatch at about 12:40 p.m.
Grindle was found at about 1:10 p.m. A crew member aboard the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office helicopter was sent down on a long line to help the injured man, but he already was dead.
Mark Neal, president of Jack Neal & Son, Sunday praised Grindle as an outstanding employee. "You asked for it and it was done," he said.
Grindle earned dual degrees from the University of California at Davis in electrical and computer engineering, according to the company's website. His Linkedin profile stated that he also was president of the university's Ski or Snowboard Club.
Neal said Grindle was an avid thrill-seeker who spanned the globe pursuing his love of BASE jumping, which entails leaping from fixed objects while using a parachute to break the fall. The acronym stands for "Buildings, Antennas, Spans and Earth."
A 2009 YouTube video appears to show Grindle doing a back flip off a bridge in Idaho, his parachute deploying just in time for landing. He dubbed the maneuver "Walden's Awesome Reverse Deployment."

I've made this pie a few times already and my family really likes it. It's easy to make, holds up well, and has a nice taste. I add an extra teaspoon of vanilla extract because I love anything vanilla. I've served this pie topped with fresh sliced strawberries, but it's delicious all by itself, too!

Hi: 21° Lo:9°
By Harriet Ernstsons Friday 07 March 2014 Updated: 07/03 10:43
DOWN to earth comedian Rob Beckett has been delighting fans around the country and beyond with his tales of life with a middle class girlfriend.
Now the comic turned presenter is going back on the road and will be stopping off in Redditch during his latest tour.
Standard reporter Harriet Ernstsons caught up with him to find out what audiences can expect.
ROB BECKETT began his career by gigging everywhere and anywhere, soon being picked up to appear in panel shows including 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Mock The Week and Celebrity Juice before trying his hand at presenting on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here Now.
But now he is returning to gigging live, which he says is his 'favourite bit of the job' as it enables us to meet everyone who comes along to see him, something he says he finds amazing.
His inspiration to become a comedian came when he saw a man at a comedy club doing really badly who had not been booed off.
"I thought I can't be that bad so I would give it a go. I was but I got better. It's basically a hobby that's got well out of hand. I did a few gigs and all of a sudden I'm doing all kinds of stuff."
Despite finding himself shooting to fame with a whirlwind of gigs and television appearances, Rob says the highlight of his career has been being able to pay for his parents to fly out to Australia during his stint on I'm A Celebrity's spin off show.
"They were so good to me bringing me up so it was great to be able to treat them and bring them out.
"My comedy is stories and observations about me and my family and my girlfriend. It's funny and silly, I'm not ranting, I'm not mean about anyone.
"It's something you can bring your nan to or your nieces and nephews. The main aim is you should leave smiling and happier than when you arrived."
After the tour Rob, who said gigging with Alan Davis - one of his favourite comedians growing up - was 'weird' at first, will be focusing on writing and putting all his ideas down on paper.
"When you're on tour you're busy running around all over the place, so I'll be taking some time to do some writing."
And his advice for comedians starting out? "It's good to gig as much as possible - any gig, anywhere, any time. For a couple of years I had no life as I was constantly doing it.
"If you had a new job and just did five minutes on a Monday morning it would take you ages to get good at it so do it as much as you can."
* Tickets for the 8pm show at the Palace Theatre on Tuesday, April 22, are available at www.redditchpalacetheatre.co.uk or from the box office on 01527 65203. Visit www.robbeckettcomedy.com for more information.

Summer is definitely over but Crystal Springs Baptist Camp in Medina is bustling with hard workers.
Stephanie Scheurer has the story.
"It's actually a bread dough is what your outside is and then with a custard filling with fruit," says Melissa Mahin, Kuchen Event Organizer.
This, is Kuchen.
One thousand seven hundred and sixty three to be exact.
"We needed 485 dozen eggs, 340 quarts of cream, 725 pounds of sugar.
Nearly 30 volunteers -- form an assembly line of working hands.
All of this Kuchen is pre-sold and the proceeds will go to help a family in need.
"This is unreal how everybody come together and give of their time and money to do this for me but I'm so very thankful for each one that's doing this," says Marlowe Schlecht.
Marlowe experienced a severe brain bleed and his mother in law, Verna, has gone through treatment for lymphoma and colon cancer - all within the year.
"It's a close family deal with both of these incidents being that close together so it's, but it's trying, but with the way everything goes and the way God works that's just the way things happen a lot of times and you work through it," says Luke Pfaff, Son of Verna.
"Our church has come together to do this over the years and help people in need and until it's you, until you're the recipient, you know we were just blown away. Even though we do it for other people all the time, it's just a blessing to be the recipient and we're thankful for everyone's involvement," says Rochelle Bosche, Daughter of Marlowe.
With everything but the kitchen sink needed to pull off this colossal, Kuchen event --
"It was very, very overwhelming because the most that I have organized is 859 so this was double that so it was very overwhelming but we're pulling it off," says Mahin.
The most special ingredient, is love.
In Medina for KX News, I'm Stephanie Scheurer.
As you can see, making Kuchen is quite the process.
Mahin says two volunteers needed to be their at 2:30 in the morning to get the dough started.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>

I'm certainly guilty of this. If you or someone you know cannot pass by your local cheese shop without making outrageous purchases of artisanal and European cheeses and believe cheese is an acceptable meal at least once a day, then consider yourself a cheese addict. We're here to help by providing you with 12 gift ideas, all cheese-related, so you can get more cheese in your life. America's Cheese History What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Have you ever wondered how American cheese styles came to be? Kirstin Jackson uncovers them in her recently released book It's Not You, It's Brie: Unwrapping America's Unique Culture of Cheese ($19). The book covers 50 types of American cheese, so you'll learn more about everything from Mexican-style queso to Vermont double-cream. 1 / 12 A Vermont Cheesemonger What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Vermont is all about the cheddar, and one cheesemaker to check out is Cellars at Jasper Hill. Try the Cheesemongers Table ($85) package, which gives you five pieces of cheese, including their signature Cabot Clothbound Cheddar. 2 / 12 Cheese Packaging What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Most people don't know that wrapping cheese in plastic wrap or plastic bags reduces the shelf life. Cheese needs special breathable paper so it doesn't grow the bad kind of mold. Properly wrap any fancy cheese with this special cheese packaging ($15). 3 / 12 Guide to Making Artisanal Cheeses What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you're ready to move on from enjoying fine cheese to actually making them, you'll need a trustworthy guide like Mary Karlin's Artisan Cheese Making at Home: Techniques & Recipes For Mastering World-Class Cheeses ($30). Yes, it's ambitious, and yes, it will take hours to do, but your passion for cheese and the comprehensive instructions will see you through. 4 / 12 Cheese Planes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sometimes the easiest way to get a thin slice of cheese is by using a cheese plane. These Chancellor Cheese Planes ($40 for a set of three) helps you slice the desired thickness. 6 / 12 Slate Cheese Board What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A slate cheese serving board ($45) is a rustic way to present cheeses. The board comes with soapstone, so you can write the name of each cheese on the board itself. 6 / 12 Homemade Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Some homemade cheese kits can go for upwards of $50, but this mini DIY Farmers' Cheese Kit ($9) provides all the basic ingredients and tools you need to make homemade cheese, while being affordable and good for beginners. 7 / 12 Cowgirl Creamery Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 One of California's best cheese makers, Cowgirl Creamery offers a Cowgirl Deluxe Collection ($115), which includes all of their organic cheeses in a wooden cheese box with cheese papers and olive-oil-and-sea-salt crackers. The company is most famous for Mt. Tam, its aged triple-cream, and Wagon Wheel, a semisoft cheese. 8 / 12 Cheese Markers What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Stuff stockings with these porcelain cheese markers ($13 for a set of four). The handy reusable markers help guests distinguish the varieties of cheeses on the plate. 9 / 12 Cheese Connoisseurship What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Take your refined palate to the next level by studying Mastering Cheese: Lessons For Connoisseurship from a Maître Fromager ($40) by Max McCalman. Find the answers to questions like, why are the stinkiest cheeses some of the best-tasting ones, too? 11 / 12 Fancy Cheese Serving Set What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For sit-down dinners, set up your cheese like restaurants do with a Dempsey Cheese Serve Set ($119). The glass dome is both beautiful and keeps the stinky fumes from percolating through the dining room. 11 / 12 Cheese Knives What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 While butter knives will do, nothing cuts through cheese better than knives intended to do the job. This Zwilling J.A. Henckels cheese knife set ($80) features ergonomic handles and different blades for everything from soft to hard cheeses. 12 / 12 4 28 12 0 0 Read More Holiday LivingFood ShoppingGift GuideCheeseHoliday Holiday 100+ of the Best DIY Gifts Ever 5 days ago Make Your Coffee Table Gorgeous With These Beauty Books 1 week ago 40+ Life-Changing Books to Read This Summer 7/22 How to Assemble a Pinterest-Worthy Cheese Plate 7/08 101 Memoirs Penned by Famous Females 6/29 40 Killer Vegetarian Appetizers 6/24 gift guide Make Your Coffee Table Gorgeous With These Beauty Books 1 week ago 101 Memoirs Penned by Famous Females 6/29 Double Tap! 15 Cool Things to Do With All Your Instagram Photos 6/17 What to Gift the Dad Who Lives For the Great Outdoors 6/15 15 Stylish Father's Day Gifts That Will Make Dad Proud 6/14 Foodie Father's Day Gifts For Every Type of Dad 6/10 Holiday Living 40 Killer Vegetarian Appetizers 6/24 This Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball Is a Triple Threat 5/15 Toast the Mom-to-Be With These Tasty Mocktails 4/17 Never Pay For a Peppermint Mocha Again 1/03 Homemade Cinnamon Apple Chips: Your Go-To Sweet Snack 1/02 9 Things People Are Having to Get Over Hangovers Right Now 1/01 Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

We've compiled a photo comparison of the F20 1-series 5-door hatchback versus its closest predecessor model – the E87 1-series 5-door hatchback model (non M-sport and facelifted). For your reference, compared to the E87, the F20 body is 85 millimeters (3.35 inches) longer, wheelbase 30 millimeters (1.18 inches) longer, front track 51 millimeters (2 inches) wider, and rear track 72 millimeters (2.83 inches) wider.
Full tech specs for the 116i, 116d, 118i, 118d, and 120d, as well as a slew of additional studio processed wallpaper images have been updated to the official F20 info thread. See inside.
Here is the first video of the F20 1-series 5-door hatchback. It's a short one, but it's the first live motion clip of the next generation BMW 1-series, and first live comparison to its predecessor, the E87 hatchback. As you watch the video, keep in mind however that the E87 is an M-sport model, so the comparison isn't exactly apples-to-apples so to speak.

Seen here are "Sport Line" and "Urban Line" models. Compared to the outgoing 1-series hatchback, the F20 has grown by 8.5 centimeters to 4.32 meters in length. Wheelbase grows by 1 inch. It retains its 50:50 weight distribution.
Base engine in the BMW 116i with a newly developed 1.6-liter turbo gasoline engine that makes 100 kW/136 hp. For the same displacement, the 118i gets 125 … CONTINUED
Even clearer updated photos of the F20 1-series M Sport front fascia. The different angles show us just how aggressive the M sport bumper actually is. Check out the new set inside….
We bring you the very first look at the upcoming F20 1-series M-sport front end on a 135i hatchback, and it's undoubtedly the most aggressive M-sport front bumper we've ever seen from BMW, owing to the integration of air curtain bodywork and deeply inset air inlets to direct more airflow to the air curtains.
The rest of the M-sport package has not yet been affixed on this car, but expect the usual set of M-sport wheels, rear bumper, sideskirts, and of course interior M-sport bits.
Besides the current … CONTINUED
Autoweek has posted a spy video of the upcoming F20 1-series hatchback running hotlaps at the Nurburgring. The new 1-series three and five door models will debut next year at the 2011 Frankfurt IAA in September.

A firefighter was injured after he slipped on ice while battling a house fire in west suburban Friday in the frigid temperatures Friday.
Firefighters responded at around 5:30 p.m. Friday to 332 Evergreen Drive, where they found fire in the crawl space and smoke on the first floor of a home, the Beacon News reports.
One person at home at the time of the fire evacuated safely from the one-story house located on the city's west side off of Main Street.
Firemen prevented the blaze from spreading through the floors and walls. The firefighter injured on the scene suffered a lower back strain when he fell on ice. He was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment and released.
Fire officials said the fire caused $15,000 in damage to the structure and $1,000 damage to contents. The structural damage was primarily to the floor joists, flooring and walls.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, but fire officials are looking at the boiler heating system as a possible source.

Pinal County Sheriff's received a 911 call from an elderly gentleman who reported a shooting at his residence in the 38000 block of South Apache Peak Drive, Saddlebrooke.
According to Pinal County's Tim Gaffney, deputies arrived on scene and spoke to the 68-year-old man. The man told deputies he fell asleep in the main house and when he woke up, his wife was not in bed.
He then proceeded to go into their small guest house where he found his wife, age 63, in bed with Stephen Trevor Chapman, 22.
The reporting party has Parkinson's disease and uses a cane and sometimes a walker to get around. The man used his cane to "poke" at Chapman to wake him up and to tell him to get out of his house.
Chapman became verbally abusive towards the man and began to yell profanities. Chapman refused to leave the residence despite being told to.
When the man told Chapman he was going to call the Sheriff for help, Chapman came charging at him in a threatening manner.
The elderly man, who grabbed his gun for protection, fired a "warning shot" at Chapman. The round struck a nearby wall and Chapman received a minor injury.
"This was an unusual call for our deputies in an active senior community," said Sheriff Paul Babeu. "Clearly, this young man should have heeded the warnings of the home owner to leave his residence and to stop sleeping with his wife. The young man is lucky he only got poked with a cane and hit with a stray pellet from the shot gun."
Chapman refused medical treatment for his hand and is booked into the Pinal County Jail for one count of Disorderly Conduct.

Don't play any Superman games with Gigabyte's new mouse
Subject: General Tech | August 31, 2012 - 04:01 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: aviva, gigabyte, krypton, gaming mouse
The newest gaming mouse from Gigabyte is the Aviva Krypton, relatively small and perfect for either hand. Along with removable weights of different sizes you also get two different types of feet so you really can adjust this mouse to fit your exact needs. Hardware Secrets were quite impressed with the software as well as the 32KB of memory onboard the mouse, not only can you reprogram the buttons and sensitivity there is good macro support as well. If your mouse isn't comfortable or is starting to age, you could do much worse than Gigabyte's Aviva line.
... and actually, just don't play Superman games.
"Who would have thought that Krypton, the home planet of Superman, would be reduced to the tiny size of a gaming-grade mouse? Well, that's the name of the new model from Gigabyte's Aivia line. It features an innovation right out of the mind of Jor-El, the scientist father of the Man of Steel: two interchangeable under plates, each one with a different set of feet (Teflon and ceramic) that delivers a different sliding control. We'll talk about this characteristic and other features after we describe the product."

Corsair Acquires Raptor Gaming
Subject: General Tech | August 15, 2012 - 12:44 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: raptor gaming, mechanical keyboard, gaming mouse, corsair
We haven't heard much about Raptor Gaming on PC Perspective, mostly because their products are sold in Europe and only infrequently seen in North America. That hasn't stopped Corsair from acquiring the company and their intellectual property which will extend Corsair's peripheral business worldwide. Raptor also holds patents pertaining to gaming keyboards, mice and other peripherals which should allow new innovations to start to appear in Corsair's next refresh of their gaming mice and keyboards.
Cologne, Germany — August 15, 2012 — Corsair®, a worldwide designer and supplier of high-performance components to the PC gaming hardware market, today announced the acquisition of certain assets of Raptor Gaming, a maker of high-performance PC gaming peripherals headquartered in Heinsberg, Germany. Established in 2004, Raptor Gaming has a strong retail presence in Germany, the largest market for video gaming in Europe, with products widely available in major chains including Media Markt, Saturn, Real, Kaufland, and Conrad.
As part of this transaction, Corsair receives Raptor Gaming's full product portfolio of keyboards, mice, headsets, and accessories, which will form a new series of gaming products alongside Corsair's existing award-winning line of Vengeance® PC gaming products. Raptor Gaming executives CEO Dirk Schunk and COO Heinz-Dieter Ludwig will remain engaged with Corsair to facilitate a smooth transition.
"Corsair and Raptor share the same goal, bringing best-in-class PC hardware to gamers around the world," said Andy Paul, President and CEO of Corsair. "Raptor Gaming's strong retail presence will allow us to offer a wider range of PC hardware to gamers across Germany."
"As gamers ourselves, we formed the Raptor Gaming business to create high-performance PC gear to give gamers the absolute best gaming experience," said Dirk Schunk, CEO of Raptor Gaming. "Corsair's strong global brand and worldwide distribution will open up Raptor Gaming products to a wider audience of gamers around the world."
Thermaltake Shows Off Black Element Cyclone Edition Mouse With Bundled Fan
Subject: General Tech | August 1, 2012 - 12:57 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: thermaltake, laser mouse, gaming mouse, fan mouse, black element cyclone edition
There has been quite a bit of mouse news this week. Jeremy posted some information on Corsair's Vengeance mice, Microsoft announced new touch-sensitive mice, Razer launched its high-end Ouroboros gaming mouse, and now it is HSF and peripheral manufacturer Thermaltake's turn. The company is launching a new Black Element Cyclone Edition under its eSports brand that should be available later this month.
Packing a laser and a 6,200dpi sensor, the Thermaltake Black Element Cyclone Edition resembles most gaming mice, with LED lighting, dedicated DPI buttons, side buttons, scroll wheel (also LED-lit), and left and right mouse buttons. The LED lights can be changed between one of five colors, and up to five individual 4.5 gram weights can be added to the base to adjust the weight–and feel–of the mouse. It further has 128kb of onboard memory storage for up to 45 macro keys in 5 game profiles.
All standard stuff there, as far as gaming mice go.
Where the Thermaltake mouse stands out is a micro USB port on the front right side of the mouse and its accompanying peripheral. A small fan attachment plugs into the mouse to cool your hand during long gaming sessions. The 30mm (30x30x10mm) fan sports a claimed 2.7 CFM at 6,000 RPM. According to the specifications, it is not very loud at 21.7 dB. For those that get sweaty palms during long work hours or gaming sessions, this looks like an interesting design. The fan is removable as well, making it portable and the mouse is suitable for use without the fan.
According to UK site Bit-Tech, the Thermaltake Cyclone Edition mouse will be available later this month for $80 in the US. Would you find the fan useful, or do you think it's just a gimmick? You can find more photos and information on the mouse over at the Thermaltake
Razer Launches $129 Ouroboros Gaming Mouse
Subject: General Tech | July 31, 2012 - 04:54 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: razer ouroboros, razer, mouse, gaming mouse
Gaming peripheral company Razer recently released a new high-end gaming mouse called the Razer Ouroboros. Named after an ancient symbol of a serpent or dragon, the Ouroboros is by no means using outdated technology. For $129 USD or €129.99 in Europe, the Ouroboros offers up wired or wireless connectivity, and a 12 hour battery life in an ambidextrous design. Users can adjust the length of the mouse as well as the angle of the back arch. Additionally, the Ouroboros mouse comes with one of two side panels for each side (four total) that can be switched out to make it right or left handed.
The new Razer mouse comes from the company's Mamba pedigree. Specifically, it is packing an improved version of the 4G Dual Sensor technology that boasts up to 8,200dpi resolution. In the wireless mode, the Ouroboros features a 1ms response time and a claimed 1000 Hz polling rate. It is powered by a single AA battery that can provide up to 12 hours of use on a single charge for long gaming sessions (general desktop use and standby time should extend the battery life much more). The Ouroboros also includes LED lighting, left and right mouse buttons, a scroll wheel, and dedicated DPI switching buttons. The company's Synapse 2.0 software is also compatible with Razer's new mouse.
The Ouroboros will be available some time in Q4 2012 for $129.99. Razer has set up a website for more information and photos of the new gaming mouse which you can find at razerzone.com/ouroboros. As a long-time user of the original (pre-dual sensor tech) Mamba, the new Ouroboros looks to be a promising gaming mouse. Just about the only feature it doesn't seem to have is adjustable weights, which always seemed like a neat feature to have.
Is it worth $129? It's hard to say without getting my hands on it in person, but it certainly looks good! What do you think?
Checking the breadth of Corsair's Vengeance
Subject: General Tech | July 30, 2012 - 04:05 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: input, corsair, gaming mouse, keyboard, vengeance, cherry mx red, k60, k90, m60, m90
LAN OC have been busily working their way through Corsair's Vengeance series of gaming peripherals, both the line of keyboards and mice. They start off with the K60 and K90, both mechanical keyboards using Cherry MX Red switches and sporting customizable red rubber WASD buttons with a slant on them to make your fingers more comfortable for long nights of FPS action. Only the K90 sports a three rows of six programmable buttons on the left hand side for use in MMOs, the K60 is more regularly sized.
From there they move to the gaming mice, specifically the Vengeance M60 and M90 which bear many similarities. The software suite which accompanies both mice gives you impressive control over the button programming and sensitivity of the mice and goes further with tools such as one that lets you rate the performance of the surface you are mousing on. Read on to see the physical differences between these two mice.
"Every once in a while you find a company that is able to take a normal product that everyone has and change it in a way that makes everyone wonder why it was never done before. As much as it pains me to say this, Apple was one of those companies. In the pc components business there are a few as well, but the company that stands out the most to me would be Corsair. Every time corsair enters a new market, I find myself impressed with what they have to offer. Even though it seems like they are always jumping into random markets, they take their time and research what everyone has to offer and what people would really want to see. This week we are going to take a look at their new Vengeance lineup of mice and keyboards to see if they have done the same in these new markets. Today we are going to start with their new keyboards, let's dig in and see what they are all about."

"Today Neoseeker will be taking a look at the CM Storm Sentinel Advance II gaming mouse and the CM Storm Speed-RXL gaming mouse pad from Cooler Master.

A baker's dozen of mice, all still in possession of their tails

Tagged: input, gaming mouse, logitech, saitek, razer, roccat, corsair, epicgear
A sampler of gaming mice from a wide variety of companies is now available at Hardware.Info, which can be a handy tool for those looking for a new mouse. No longer is it choice between Logitech and Microsoft, the list of companies supplying the mice includes A4 Tech, Corsair, Epicgear, Razer, Saitek and more. If you want a large heavy mouse, one designed for macro button programming or a mouse you can adjust into a variety of shapes to ensure the most comfortable fit for your hand then this roundup has you covered. There is no winner, as everyone wants a little something different from their own mouse but if you'd like an idea of what is out there then they have you covered.
"To many computer users the mouse is just a necessary little tool for operating their computer. As long as it has two buttons and a wheel and the cursor goes where it's supposed to, most people are satisfied. Gamers are more demanding, however, in terms of comfort, performance, and features. We reviewed 13 gaming mice to find out what's currently out there.
A decent mouse is crucial for the serious gamer, that is why we are in the habit of regularly doing a round-up of the latest gaming mice. The 13 mice in this comparison test vary quite a bit in price, from £45 to £69. It's a pretty big difference, which should mean that the performance and features should differ significantly as well. The only way of finding this out for sure is by a thorough test. And that's exactly what we did."

How many mechanical switches before a mouse starts becoming a keybaord?
Subject: General Tech | April 23, 2012 - 04:20 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: input, mouse, gaming mouse, razer, Naga Hex Expert, mechanical keyboard
Not content with simply having 11 programmable buttons, the 6 removable thumb buttons on the Razer Naga Hex Expert gaming mouse use mechanical switches. That is not just a marketing ploy however, this will allow very quick response from the buttons as well as giving them a longer life than less rugged choices. Also included with this mouse is support for Synapse 2.0, the updated Razer mouse driver which Mad Shrimps found quite easy to use.
If you prefer your mechanical keys on a keyboard then check out what Scott has been up to.
"The new mouse from the Naga family is Hex and Razer has built it for MOBA and Action RPGs; it comes with 6 extra buttons on the thumb side and 3 different rubber thumb rests are also provided, to suit our needs. The customization of the mouse functions can be realized by using the powerful Razer Synapse 2.0 software, which can be downloaded freely from the manufacturers' website."

Optical or laser, EpicGear's Meduza can do one or both at once
Subject: General Tech | April 2, 2012 - 02:31 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: meduza, input, gaming mouse, epicgear
If you can't decide if you prefer an optical sensor or a laser sensor better then EpicGear's new mouse is a great find. It sports laser, optical and the blended HDST mode which combines them both and offers better sensitivity than the optical sensor though not quite as much as in laser only mode. They also offer a hybrid mouse pad designed to be used with the mouse, which OC3D also tried out. The software for programming macros is also worth a mention, not only does it properly record pauses between button presses but is easily editable after you've recorded them, just in case you didn't time it perfectly.
"Epic Gear are willing to throw their hat into the gaming mouse ring with the innovative Meduza mouse."

Well, just about everything we thought we knew about the Big 12 last week has been scrapped by week seven's action.
Here's what we knew coming into the weekend: West Virginia had a signature win over Texas and was the favorite to win the league. Kansas State had a nice win for itself, beating an Oklahoma team earlier in the season that seemed to be overrated. TCU's offense had become pretty bad with the loss of Casey Pachall, and Baylor wasn't missing Robert Griffin quite as much as we had expected.
Forget about all of that.
Texas Tech (5-1, 2-1) was coming off an embarrassing home loss to Oklahoma, but the Red Raiders had a chance at redemption when West Virginia (5-1, 2-1) strolled into Lubbock. Getting the upset over a top five team would be huge. Well, the offense got off to a quick start, and it never really slowed down. The difference this week was that the West Virginia offense wasn't able to bail out the defense.
The Red Raiders, who had a terrible defense last season, did a better job of slowing down the Mountaineers than anyone else this season. That, combined with Seth Doege's 499 yards and six touchdowns, turned the game into a 49-14 rout. Now, Texas Tech looks like more of a player in the conference, and there are many more questions surrounding West Virginia. Geno Smith was held to just a 52 percent completion rate and a touchdown.
But what about that big win in Austin on Saturday? Well, it appears that Texas (4-2, 1-2) isn't the team we originally thought, either. The Longhorns were looking to bounce back from that loss in a big way with a win over Oklahoma (4-1, 2-1) in the Red River Rivalry. Instead, the Sooners destroyed Texas and proved that they were still among the favorites to win this conference.
By halftime, Oklahoma had a 36-2 lead and had all but put the game away. Landry Jones threw for 321 yards on the day, while Blake Bell had four rushing touchdowns on just eleven carries. When the game finally ended, the Sooners held a 677-289 advantage in total yards and had earned a 63-21 win. If someone can knock off Kansas State, Oklahoma is clearly back in the conference title hunt. This looked like the national championship contender everyone thought it would be coming into the season. The Sooners should be able to avoid the letdown, too, because they welcome lowly Kansas next weekend.
As for Texas, the Longhorns need to get a win against Baylor next week to get back on track. Less than two weeks ago, this was a team creeping toward the top ten. Now, it's given up 111 points in the last two games.
Yet, Baylor (3-2, 0-2) didn't look very good this past week, either. After putting up 63 points but coming away with a loss against West Virginia, the Bears got an extra week of rest before hosting TCU (5-1, 2-1). The Horned Frogs, of course, were without Pachall and were coming off a loss to Iowa State. This looked like a good situation for Baylor. Instead, TCU came away with a convincing win.
Trevone Boykin looked much better in his second game as the starter, throwing four touchdowns without an interception. The six turnovers forced by the Horned Frog defense was the difference, though. The margin in yards gained was not that great, but when a team loses the turnover battle by six, it is very rarely going to win. That's the big reason Baylor lost, 49-21.
No matter why they lost, the Bears have to play Texas next, and one of these two teams is going to have three conference losses after week eight. That didn't seem likely at all a few weeks ago, but this is a must-win for both teams.
Even Lawrence, Kansas provided more drama than it was supposed to on Saturday. Kansas (1-5, 0-3) has been awful so far this season, and with Oklahoma State (3-2, 1-1) coming to town, another ugly loss appeared imminent. A late Jayhawk rally almost changed those plans.
The Cowboys took a 20-0 lead early in the fourth quarter, but two Kansas touchdowns within two minutes of each other closed the margin quickly and gave the Jayhawks an opportunity to get the win. But that wouldn't happen. Oklahoma State held on for the 20-14 win and got their record back above .500. It's going to take a better effort to keep it there, because Iowa State comes to Stillwater next week.
Really, the only game that went almost exactly as planned was between Iowa State (4-2, 1-2) and Kansas State (6-0, 3-0). The Wildcats were supposed to win the game, but many had placed them on "upset alert." The Cyclones certainly gave Kansas State a scare, but Collin Klein ran for three more touchdowns and led his team to the 27-21 win.
That leaves Kansas State as the only undefeated team left in the conference. We know the Wildcats are good. On Saturday, we may find out just how good. West Virginia was embarrassed on Saturday and that offense will be looking to bounce back with a win over the conference's top dog. That game will teach us just as much about the Mountaineers as it will the Wildcats.
Of course, the conference was supposed to have already taken shape by now. Saturday completely rearranged the Big 12's layout in terms of who the true favorites are.
Will week eight clear some of this up? Maybe, maybe not. There will be some important games, though, and there will be opportunities for some of these teams to get right back into the picture.

Two men in a runoff election for District Attorney in the 25th district are complaining that their opponents made disparaging comments against them.
Incumbent James (Jay) Gaither is running against David Learner.
Gaither emailed a complaint to the board of elections office over a comment Lerner made in an op-ed in the local paper. Read Gaither's comments here.
Learner responded to the complaint saying his statement was an honest mistake. He said Gaither has also made disparaging comments in the race. Read Learner's response here.
Joshua Lawson with the North Carolina Board of Elections office says there's no guarantee that this will be resolved before the runoff election.
The board of elections can only do investigations. It cannot file charges. That means if the complaint were to hold merit, the investigation would be referred to the DA's office.
According to Lawson, in an election year like this, the state board of elections receives about 80-100 complaints.
In the republican primary in May, Gaither got 31.09% of the vote. Lerner got 39.39%. The runoff will be held in July.
The 25th district DA's office represents Catawba, Burke, and Caldwell counties.

DURHAM — The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to take up the case of three former Duke lacrosse players who played on the 2006 team but who did not face the false criminal accusations that resulted in international headlines and several books.
In a brief, two-sentence summary published Tuesday, the nations highest court announced the decision in the case brought by Ryan McFadyen, Matthew Wilson and Breck Archer.
The players sued Duke University; Durham police investigators and city officials; Mike Nifong, the former Durham district attorney disbarred for his misconduct in the criminal case; and nurses who examined Crystal Mangum, the woman who made the false rape allegations.
As the case wound its way through the federal courts since it was filed in December 2007, the trios complaint was sharply narrowed by judicial rulings.
McFadyen, Wilson and Archer filed an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court, challenging the constitutionality of a North Carolina law under which a judge ordered all but one member of the 2006 team to be swabbed for DNA. In March 2006, Durham police had 46 members of the Duke lacrosse team DNA-tested as part of the investigation into the false accusations.
Last week, the justices discussed the case behind closed doors but did not elaborate on what was said or how they reached the decision released Tuesday.
Associate Justice Samuel Alito Jr., a visiting professor this semester at the Duke law school, took no part in the consideration or decision of the petition, according to the order.
In October, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to consider another lawsuit related to the Duke lacrosse case.
Reade Seligmann, Collin Finnerty and David Evans, the three falsely accused players, filed suit in 2007 seeking to hold the City of Durham, the police department and Nifong accountable for pursuing criminal charges against them despite the many inconsistencies in Mangums allegations.
Mangum, who is on trial for murder in Durham County Superior Court in an unrelated case, claimed in March 2006 that she had been sexually assaulted at a team party in an off-campus house.
The three who were criminally charged and later declared innocent by the state attorney general filed a federal civil rights claim.
The city has fought the accusations.
In December 2012, the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the city on the federal claims but allowed some of the other claims to proceed at the state level.
The three wrongly accused players reached an undisclosed settlement with Duke University in 2007. In February, 38 members of that team also settled with Duke out of court.

Do I have a voltage Regulator Problem?

Do I have a voltage Regulator Problem?
Folks, I noticed the 3 caps on my battery (on the Farmall A) were bubbling while the tractor was running. The ampmeter should that it was really charging. I checked the fluid levels and I was really surprised to see how low they were. I added Distilled H2O and ran the tractor again. The meter was charging at the same rate and soon the caps were bubbling again. I ran it for a few minutes longer and when I shut it off, the caps bubbled for another minute. Is my voltage regulator bad? AND, did I just create a new problem by adding water rather than acid? I live in NW Wisconsin.
do NOT add acid unless it has been spilled. If a battery is lwo form use, only water is needed. bubbling when charging heavy is normal. teo tell if ovltage reuglator is bad you need a a voltmeter to check chargin voltage. Are you sure it has a regualtor rather than a cutout? If light switch has L, H, D, B settings, set it to the L position (low charge rate).
"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government
to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the
government lest it come to dominate our lives and interests." Patrick Henry
Well, I'd swear I posted a response to this last night but I can't find it anywhere.
Anyway, as John said, add only water unless there is a spill. Only the water evaporates and needs replenishing. However, since you noticed the bubbling while running and the electrolyte level was low, it is very possible that your battery is over-charging. If you have a 3 brush generator, you can slow the charge rate by moving the third brush. Otherwise, your suspicions may be correct on the regulator. If you have a voltmeter, check to see what the voltage at the battery terminals is when the system is charging.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!

Tire Balancing Service
Balancing your tires is a cost effective way to promote safety, reduce tire wear and increase fuel efficiency. Protect your investment with our Lifetime Tire Balancing Service Package.
Tire Balancing Service Packages
Pep Boys Lifetime Tire Balancing Service Package
Properly balanced tires and wheels can improve driver safety, reduce tire wear, increase fuel efficiency and minimize steering wheel vibration leading to a smoother, more comfortable ride. If you are experiencing a vibration in your steering wheel and/or through your seat, or if your tires have an irregular wear pattern, your tires may be out-of-balance. The tire professionals at Pep Boys will help protect your tire investment by maintaining the balance for the lifetime of the tire.
The Pep Boys Lifetime Tire Balancing Service includes:
- Mounting each wheel on a state-of-the-art dynamic computer-controlled spin balancing machine
- Establishing optimal balance of the tire/wheel assembly by correcting any type of imbalance
- Check and set tire pressure to your vehicle's specification
- Service includes balancing for the life of the tire
- Courtesy Vehicle Inspection
- An out-of-balance tire and wheel will typically create a vibration or shake that becomes progressively worse as the vehicle's speed increases. The speed at which the vibration first becomes apparent will vary depending on the size and weight of the tires and wheels, the size and weight of the vehicle, the sensitivity of the steering and suspension, and the amount of imbalance. The vibration or shake usually starts in at 40 to 50 mph and becomes more intense as your speed increases.

We learn early in the school that energy cannot be destroyed but only transform. Despite that we focus a lot of saving energy rather than focusing on energy efficient system. The solar power station will provide the mankind with energy and it is only of matter of harnessing this energy in the most cost efficient way.
On Thursday night, September 18, I was sitting at my computer waiting for Hurricane Isabel to strike Northern Virginia. I wanted to see what it would do to our current system of power supply.
On August 14, 2003, approximately a dozen nuclear power stations were rudely dropped from the transmission grid by the 2K3 Blackout. The emergency power systems at these sites promptly fired up, and reenergized nuclear safety systems necessary to complete the shutdown and cooldown the nuclear cores.
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is the strategy and tactics deployed to maximize the lifetime value of the customer asset - customer equity. CRM is defined by Elizabeth Roche at META Group as "an ecosystem that must drive bottom-line revenue by applying the right CRM treatments, to the right customer segment, at the right time."
I decided to write this article after watching an early morning news show concerning homeland security during which a congressman stated that the Federal government must urgently fund new scientific research projects at our leading universities.
Reducing Risk with Enterprise Energy Management: Observations After the Biggest Blackout in US HistoryMajor blackouts like the one in North America on August 14 illustrate how much we depend on electricity to support a stable, diverse, and growing economy. It also highlights the need for energy consumers and suppliers to manage risk before major disruptions happen.
No matter how loud people scream about a troublesome intersection, those protests typically fall on deaf ears until a tragedy occurs. Once there is a fatal crash, a traffic light or some other appropriate signage is usually erected within days so as to prevent another accident.
The transmission grid that serves the eastern US and Ontario is congested by large power transfers from neighboring regions (to allow for open competition) and is vulnerable to disturbances. Although there is a tendency to point at a "single" event triggering cascading outages, major blackouts are typically caused by multiple contingencies with complex interactions.
In 1964, the first astronaut who performed a space walk reported that as soon as he went outside his orbiting spacecraft, he noticed that the canopy of stars around him seemed to form a sphere, and no matter where he turned his head, he had the distinct, unshakable sense that he was at the center of the universe.
To paraphrase an infamous Woody Allen quip about casual sex, economics is a social science, but as social sciences go, it's gotta be one of the best. Consider "negawatts" - a term coined by soft energy path guru Amory Lovins in the 1970's. Its economic logic is difficult to refute.

About ten percent of Americans are unemployed. To help job seekers avoid some common pitfalls, Forbes has released a list of the top five mistakes people make during a job search.
1. Going Out of Your League
It's nice when you feel confident in your abilities, and most employers will applaud any self-assured applicant over someone who needs continual coaching to perform. By applying for a job that you are seriously not competent to do, however, you waste your and the time of the hiring manager. Keep your job searches to just those you are actually competent to handle, and keep your resume out of the shredding machine.
2. Running from the Past
If you called up a past employer and anonymously asked what they thought of your performance, what would she say? Unfortunately, it just takes one historical error (or perceived lack of performance) to taint the perception of all future employers. Your best bet is to make sure that you leave your jobs on good terms, but if that isn't possible, find out what they are saying about you before you continue the job search.
3. Ignoring Your Weaknesses
No one is perfect, so forget about trying to pass yourself off as faultless at your next interview. In fact, the traditional advice of "make a strength seem like a weakness" may backfire, as many hiring managers have heard one too many claims of workaholic tendencies and trying too hard at a career. Instead of playing the same game, it may be best to present your case honestly, and explain how a past weakness has actually been resolved in your life. For example, you used to be slightly unorganized, but a change in processes has allowed you to be more productive at your past job and even enriched your home life.
4. Failing to Find Out about the Company
Doing a little research about the job you'll be applying for isn't just smart, it's essential. When finding data to present in an interview or on an application, however, avoid reciting useless facts and one-liners from the latest press releases. Instead, seek to answer questions such as: What kind of charity groups is the company aligned with? Will there be any new projects in the coming months that could specifically benefit from your expertise? By giving your demonstrated knowledge of the company a personal touch, the hiring manager will be forced to see that you can do more than memorize quotes for their website; they will realize that you are willing to understand the vision for their business.
5. Not Following Directions
Last, but certainly not least, is the most avoidable of all mistakes, and it involves a skill that should have been learned in Kindergarten: do what the application process tells you. While we would like to think that there is some secret code to getting your application to the top of the pile, it more than likely involves timing, a little luck and following directions to the letter. If the employer explicitly states "no phone calls, please" - by all means, don't call! Failing to follow directions does more than send your application to the trash bin; it demonstrates your inability to complete a basic task - something a future employer will not take lightly.
