mutual feelings on the GUIQuote:
Yes, I'd agree with that, but I do like how they assign firewall rules by MAC address rather than IP.
As for the firmware, I think its a bit hit or miss on whether you find it or not, but speedtouch.co.uk is probably a good start!
They do need to sort their nasty GUI out as well, I find it ever so annoying having to 'Details', and 'Configure' sections as opposed to clicking and just doing!
Still, it holds my sync at 8128 on adslmax better than the dlink did at 6.5mbit.

Full Clip: Salt-N-Pepa Runs Down Their Entire Catalogue
Salt: With the Very Necessary album we wanted to have even more independence. There were things we wanted to do and express as women. We fully separated ourselves from Hurby. Like I said, there was a personal relationship going on and I broke up with him for obvious reasons which you can see in a film like Dreamgirls [laughs]. The first single was 'Shoop,' which Pepa and I did together. In the past, Hurby brought so much to the table, but we wanted 'Shoop' to be the first single. But the label was like, 'Oh no…we have to do a Hurby cut.' The record company and Hurby were fighting us on it. They finally gave in which was great because 'Shoop' pushed Very Necessary over the top. Very Necessary sold millions of copies and became our biggest record. As a woman in the music industry, it's hard to prove yourself. You always have to do extra. This is when we started really writing and producing our songs. We were going hard in the paint."
Pepa: "When we made 'Whatta Man' with En Vougue, oh my God, that was amazing! We all sat around thinking, 'Who can we get to sing this hook?' And we all said En Vogue. We weren't even sure that they would do it. But it was nothing to it but making a call. The girls were so excited about the idea. They loved the song and they loved us. It's one of our biggest hits to this day."
Salt: "For me personally, I always felt like Salt-N-Pepa was going to be huge. So I was never surprised when Very Necessary sold millions. I don't mean that to sound arrogant, but that's just a spiritual thing. But the pinnacle moment for me was winning a Grammy. We had been nominated a couple of times, but hadn't won. I wasn't really expecting for us to be recognized as pioneers in hip-hop especially us being females. At that point hip-hop music at the Grammy's was not that significant. So it was an incredible surprise when we won. That's when I realized that we had come to the point that we were actually being recognized and respected in this genre of music."

Even though I have no idea what it means, but:"TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives."
I by far have actually noticed the difference myself, yes…its that prominent.
Here's a list of features of TeraCopy:
- Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives.
- Pause and resume file transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click.
- Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skip the file, not terminating the entire transfer.
- Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files.
- Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual.
- Full Unicode support.
- Windows 7 x64 support.
And my favorite feature(5th from the top) is that i don't have to fire up the software every time i want to cut/copy/paste a file. I can do it from my normal I-Click Menu and shortcut keys.
You can get Teracopy from here.
Hope you enjoy this software
And it also has a portable version available here.

Sheffield United manager Nigel Clough has not ruled out the possibility of strengthening his squad in January.
Loading Market ...
Football Betting
Bet £5 Get £20 Free
The Blades have collected 11 points from seven games since Clough took charge and the former Derby boss is keen to maintain his side's momentum as they bid to climb the table.
But any possible signing will have to match the former Derby boss' high standards before he will consider adding them to his squad.
"The biggest thing for me is always a player's character," Clough told the club's official website.
"That's something I like to find out a lot about, a major factor when we are looking to sign a player.
"We always endeavour to watch every single player we want to sign and if all of us, as a staff, give them a tick, then the answer is usually a 'yes'.
"January is a funny transfer window. I find you get better value for money in the summer, but we will see what happens."

France, 1999 (MIFF 1999, Documentaries)
Director: Michel Daëron
Bach in Auschwitz is a sobering account of the experience of 40 women who survived the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp of World War II by belonging to a group known to both prisoners and Nazis alike as 'the ladies of the orchestra', The women were from all over Europe. One thing kept them bound together and out of the hands of their potential executioners: their musical talents.
Knowing that their deaths could follow the finale of any single performance, the women nevertheless played with total conviction. Perversely, in a place where the very idea of music stood in stark contrast to an all-pervading atmosphere of death and hatred, they were revered by both their fellow Jewish prisoners and the German soldiers who enforced their imprisonment. Their mere existence gave physical meaning to the definition of the 'grey zone' by world renowned holocaust author Primo Levi: "The network of human relationships within the camps are impossible to sum up as two groups, the victims and perpetrators. The enemy was all around but also within; the 'we' lost its borders."
In examining this tender, difficult issue, skilled documentary filmmaker Michel Daeron conducted probing interviews with the 12 surviving members of the Auschwitz-Birkenau orchestra. For many of them this is the first time they have been interviewed on the subject. Daeron's documentary is powerful and tragic, an account of triumphant spirit in the face of systematic violence, hopelessness and despair.

Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
After months of teaser images, Sony has finally released the first official trailer for 'The Equalizer,' starring Denzel Washington as a brooding protagonist who's gonna kick some down and dirty mafia ass and save a wayward young girl. So basically, yes, it's definitely a Denzel Washington movie.
Warner Bros. and Legendary are doing a great job stirring up excitement for 'Godzilla,' and today brings the first official clip from the film, which features the set-up for quite an impressive monstrous showdown -- it also informs us that Godzilla might not be the big baddie of this film after all.
In the grand tradition of 'The Godfather,' 'Star Wars' and 'Back to the Future,' Syfy ordered a 'Sharknado 3' because you just can't do an epic proper justice unless you make it into a trilogy, thus cementing (or forcefully trying to demand by default) its proper place in classic cinema.
With production on the new 'Terminator' reboot set to begin this April and original Terminator Arnold Schwarzenegger set to make his return, we've been anxious to hear more details -- and while we still don't know any specifics, we know this: Schwarzenegger himself has seen the script for the film, and he definitely approves.
A pleasant surprise for your weekend: 20th Century Fox has unleashed a ton of new images from 'X-Men: Days of Future Past,' including a few behind the scenes photos from the upcoming sequel to 'First Class.' There's over 20 new pics featuring Wolverine, Mystique, Xavier, and a couple more looks at Quicksilver from the exciting latest installment in the franchise to get you even more stoked for the impending release.
Finally, after months of development, J.J. Abrams has confirmed that he's ready to move on to the next stage: this weekend at the Television Critics Association, the director confirmed that the script has been completed for 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' and that the production is now in "deep prep" on the upcoming film, which is scheduled for a December, 2015 release. Well that's a relief.
It didn't take very long for things to get downright nutty at tonight's Golden Globe awards. Following a hilarious opening from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and a super awkward but totally endearing acceptance speech from Jennifer Lawrence, veteran actress Jacqueline Bisset took the stage to accept an award for Best Supporting Actress for a mini-series or TV movie for her performance in 'Dancing on the Edge.' And then things got pretty crazy.
Here's some pretty big news for Golden Globes weekend: Quentin Tarantino has apparently finished the script for his upcoming western film, which is reportedly titled 'The Hateful Eight,' and, if the rumors are true, he's already eyeing actors for two of the lead roles: Christoph Waltz (which would make sense), and Bruce Dern (which would make us so, so happy).
We're gearing up for the release of the (very) shiny new version of 'RoboCop' next month, and today brings a brand new international poster, which we've gotta say we're digging much more than the domestic posters we've seen so far -- but that's usually how these things go. As an added bonus, we've got a brand new photo from the film to go along with it, and to keep your interest piqued for the film's February release.
Leave it to Vin Diesel to bring us all the breaking news this weekend. Yesterday, the actor posted a photo on Facebook of himself with a statue of Groot from 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' confirming what we already pretty much knew about his part in the film. Tonight, the actor brings us official word on the anticipated release date switch of 'Fast and Furious 7,' which has now sped into a 2015 slot.

Swedish authorities pull plug on female Elvis
it's obvious
The parents are obviously *nix users and fall on the "vi" side of the vi vs. emacs divide.
They couldn't name their daughter vi, or nvi, or vim, or vile, but chose elvis as the vi "flavor" to name their daughter after and indicate their preferred text editor..
Mine's the one with the colon print and the <esc> keys in the pocket.
KDE 4.1 beta 1 released
desktop effects
Yeah, I run Fedora and have played with the desktop effects. I have more than enough poop (256 MB nVidia 7300 GS on my main desktop) on my systems to run them, but other than to occasionally show off to someone who's never seen them before, usually just leave them off.
Maybe I'm too old, or maybe just used Gnome and Linux too long to really care all that much for that kind of glitz. While the desktop switcher applet, and of course virtual terminals, may not look as cool as spinning cubes, they work just as well.
Nothing against the new stuff, but I usually just leave it turned off.
International copyright talks seek BitTorrent-killer laws
maybe it's about time...
I haven't downloaded any copyrighted materials, yet. I use bittorrent to get .isos of new Linux releases, and so far, that's about all.
But I can't play my legally purchased DVD's on my laptop, evidently because I don't use an "approved" operating system. I find this to be quite annoying.
Recently, my daughter, who has fewer personal inhibitions regarding downloading of copyrighted materials than I showed me how the same materials that I paid good money for and which did not play on my equipment and OS could be obtained at no cost and would work just fine.
I'm not certain how "fair use" would apply, but it would seem to me that if I can't use media I purchased on my equipment, I should be entitled to download functional versions at no cost and with no violation of any law.
Taken a step further, why the heck should I pay for defective, i.e., DRM crippled, media in the first place.
As I stated earlier, I haven't gone there yet, and so far all audio CD's I've purchased work fine on whatever equipment I choose to play it on, so that's not an issue for me. But I can certainly sympathize with and support anyone who downloads materials when he is unable to purchase functional versions of it legally.
Microsoft spits out final XP service pack, beta version
Just bought a new laptop
Just bought a new laptop last week. It's a Centrino Dual Core with 2 GB RAM. The OS had been "downgraded" to XP with Vista Basic available for activation in a hidden partition.
I booted it with my Fedora 8 DVD and eliminated all existing partitions, formatted the HD to ext3 and 20 minutes later it was running beautifully. Never had a chance to see what XP or Vista would do.
The last version of MSWindows I tried to run was Win98, but it had issues with my hardware and kept blue screening and freezing. RedHat 6.2 fixed those problems and since then computing has been a breeze.
Dell moves 40,000 Ubuntu PCs
I'm one of the 130,000
But not, yet anyway, one of the 40,000 who have already purchased one of Dell's Linux computers. I am writing this (at work) from a Dell desktop running SLED 10 and at my other job, have Fedora installed on another Dell desktop. Both work great. At home I have two other computers, one a home built and the other an HP, both of which run Linux. I don't own, or even have ready access to a MSWindows computer. Not even sure if I would know how to do anything with one if I had to.
I am in the market for a Linux laptop and am giving serious consideration to the Dell offering, but am hesitating for two reasons. First, the hardware does seem to be a bit low end, and secondly, since Dell has not yet moved to Ubuntu 7.10, I'm not certain that they intend to continue supporting these units.
While Linux can be installed with relative confidence on almost any desktop unit, laptops can present challenges with wireless, hibernate and suspend modes, and possibly a few other areas not relevant to desktop installs. For those reasons, before I drop $1000 or so on a machine, I would like to know that everything will work. And to me knowing that it will work means that it will work with Linux.
I intend to make a decision soon since I get paid quarterly on one of my jobs and I will be getting a large check on January 1, a portion of which will be going towards the purchase of a laptop. Whether I buy a Dell Ubuntu machine or take my chances on getting one and blowing Windows away is yet to be decided. If Dell were to expand their offerings and provide me with a bit more confidence that they were really interested in supporting Linux offerings, they would be assured of at least one more sale.

November 26, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Legal experts say the case of a Somali refugee who is facing years in prison for refusing to testify against members of an alleged child sex-trafficking ring is extraordinary because prosecutors usually don't come down so hard on their own witnesses.
A federal jury in Nashville convicted Abdullahi Farah of contempt and obstruction of a child sex-trafficking case in April. Prosecutors say the 24-year-old will face up to life in prison when he is sentenced at a yet to be determined date.
Farah says he is afraid to testify because he was attacked twice and his family has been threatened. Prosecutors doubt Farah's attacks and threats.
So far, every defendant who has gone to trial has either been acquitted or had their conviction thrown out.

League of Legends CCG RulesLeague of Legends CCG (Competitive Card Game)
Goal: To bring the gameplay of League of Legends into an analog format, simplifying the game mechanics as needed.
Each player chooses five different champions and builds a deck around them. A deck consists of [QWE Skills], [Items], and [Summoner Spells].
Win Conditions:
Objective - Attack the Nexus (a rule-based objective) for 100 points of damage. The Nexus can be attacked after a successful Teamfight by any surviving members, or by Champions that remain in an unopposed lane during a Teamfight (Ally or Enemy!), but most skills and items don't work.
Snowball - Have 20 or more kills over your opponent.
Surrender - Opponent forfeits.
Champion Breakdown:
A champion card (referred to as a Champ in game) has the following mechanics:
[Name] - The champ's name. Important in this case as a Champ can use any of their named Skil
Bliss Stage RPCG: The OathBy morning, we may fight and die,
By evening, we try to survive,
For in the twilight we prove ourselves.
For my family, blissful in eternal sleep,
For my friends, dead at the enemy's feet.
For you, my one and only, I will fight.
To keep humanity from the dark
I will light the way to our future.
Love Is My Weapon.
With you at my side, I will not fail.
Bliss Stage RPCG Beta RulesBliss Stage RPCG Rules Pre-Production (Beta v1.2)
Rules are not final, and may change at any time.
My Goal: To re-create the Bliss Stage RP game into a card form that can be enjoyed by persons 13 and older (as opposed to the original RP which was 18 and older) while still keeping the unsettling nature of the game. An even amount of players (minimum 2) start in a situation that rapidly spirals out of control, against a threat they barely comprehend, while still trying to build interpersonal relationships.
Of Note: I am now working with cooperation from TsundereLightning. The game is now considered Legitimate.
What you will need to play:
At least two players
(3) Anchor cards, each unique (unless stated on the card)
(1) Pilot card
(1) Stage card
(1) Deck consisting of exactly 60 Events and/or Threats, and a minimum of 10 for both types present within the deck.
(3) D6 of one color
(1+) Other D6 to roll for Threats
(2) d10 (counting to 95) --or--
(1) d12 and one d10 (counting to 1

Shawn Camp plays everything from bluegrass to hardcore country, while rockabilly cat Billy Burnette spent almost 10 years with Fleetwood Mac and currently tours with John Fogerty. Their idea of doing Elvis bluegrass-style is a natural, considering Presley got his start with a rockabilly version of Bill Monroe's "Blue Moon of Kentucky." With the backing of six stellar pickers, the duo romps through 12 tunes, most from the early years of The King. "Hound Dog" is a good example of their approach, a blend of blues, rock, and bluegrass with Aubry Haynie's fiddle adding shimmering filigrees and Camp singing the lyrics in a style that recalls Presley's slurring delivery and Big Mama Thornton's grittier, bluesier version. "All Shook Up" is pure bluegrass taken at a sizzling tempo and featuring a tandem vocal from Camp and Burnette with pyrotechnic playing from Chris Henry on mandolin, Scott Vestal on banjo, and Haynie on fiddle. "A Big Hunk o' Love" is more playful than Elvis' dark, sexy version, and Burnette's lighthearted singing is complemented by Vestal's inventive, bluesy banjo picking. This isn't a reinvention Presley reinvented bluegrass and country music himself but an extension of the original impulse to erase boundaries in an effort to serve the music.

Keith Urban is coming back to American Idol.
Fox chairman Kevin Reilly on Thursday confirmed the return of the country music star, settling the fate of the only judge left from last season on the talent competition.
He did a really good job last year, Reilly said to a gathering of the Television Critics Association. The fans really like him.
But Reilly was mum on who would sit beside Urban at the judges' table next season, which begins in January. Reilly said there have been discussions with Jennifer Lopez, a former judge, but there is no deal with her or with anyone else.
Out of hospital
Country music star Randy Travis is out of the hospital three weeks after he was admitted with congestive heart failure and later suffered a stroke.
A statement Wednesday says Travis has been discharged from The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano near Dallas, where he'd been admitted July 7 and has been moved to a physical therapy center for further treatment.
The 54-year-old singer developed the heart failure due to a viral illness.
More therapy
Lindsay Lohan has completed her court-ordered stay in rehab and must continue therapy into late next year, a judge said Wednesday.
The Liz & Dick star must meet with a therapist at least three times a week until November 2014, Superior Court Judge James R. Dabney said. That follows the treatment recommendation of Richard Taite, founder and CEO of Cliffside Malibu, the rehab facility where Lohan was recently residing.
Taite wrote Dabney a letter stating the need for Lohan to remain in therapy.
Lowe, Jones exiting
NBC's Parks and Recreation is losing two of its cast members.
Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones will leave the series after the 13th episode of the upcoming sixth season.
They play characters Chris Traeger and Ann Perkins.
Jones has been on the series since its first episode. Lowe joined the show in Season 2.
This isn't the first time Lowe has left a TV series before it went off the air. He left NBC's The West Wing and ABC's Brothers and Sisters after four seasons.
Happy birthday
Among celebrity birthdays today: Actor Peter O'Toole is 81. Director Wes Craven is 74. Singer Kathy Lennon is 70. Actor Max Wright is 70. Actor Butch Patrick is 60. Singer Mojo Nixon is 56. Actress Cynthia Stevenson is 51. Actress Mary-Louise Parker is 49. Director-actor Kevin Smith is 43. Actor Sam Worthington is 37. Actor Edward Furlong is 36.

American Idol Judges: The First Promotional Photo!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Forget The Avengers. The new American Idol judging team is now officially assembled.
A day after Fox confirmed Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban as the show's new panelists - joining already-announced Mariah Carey and Randy Jackson - the network has released the first official promotional photo of this quartet and host Ryan Seacrest.
Looks like The Dawg is in his usual seat...
American Idol heads in to Season 12 with a number of questions, following its lowest rated run of episodes in years.
With this new unit change the show's fortunes, appealing to fans of country, pop and rap as the series clearly hopes? Will Carey and Minaj clash on set? And does Fox secretly hopes that's the case?
We'll find out more in January. For now, simply sound off: Are you satisfied with the new set of judges?
I love the show, can't stand the judges , Minaj is hard to watch. I liked Randy. But if the same judges came back,
Me and My Sister will not be watching. She lives in Tenn. and I live in Indiana. We talk to each other during the whole show.
I honestly cannot believe they got Nicki Minaj, aka musics biggest joke. She performed on AI last season, and she didn't even sing the singing parts, she just did the rapping, now she's gonna judge singers??!!! Sorry Nicki, there are no rappers on AI, and you certainly don't know how to judge singing! I used to be obsessed with AI, especially last season, but now it just seems like such a joke, and so disrespectful to singing itself. The only good thing about this panel is Mariah.
Well. This should be interesting.
They like old drug addicts on their show it's like they are in rehab Paula, Steve, and Keith .I want to get drug addicted sing some songs go on the wagon and then make some good money as a judge on American idol.
Nicki, Mariah, No! NO! IM GONE!!
the sick attention grabber, named mary carey, required so.
When is American Idol going to realize they are losing viewer due to allowing people to vote a millions times. The other successful shows limit the votes per method, eliminating someone winning because someone cast a zillions votes. I used to watch and was disgusted at people being kept on or being voted off due to people having unlimited voting. I love watching the xfactor and the voice as the votes are limited and the person who wins is genuine.

iDigital Big2 Alarm Clock HD
*** This is the Biggest Digital Display Time available anywhere for iPad/iPhone - UNIVERSAL APP - Download it once and use it on all apple devices ***
Do you have a hard time looking at time at night? Don't you just wish display time would be as big as the iPAD screen itself?
This is the BIGGEST DIGITAL DISPLAY of TIME available anywhere in the app store.
Now with beautiful 6 colors for display and 4 day weather forecast
See what some of the users are saying about this app.
Thank God for Big Clock (USA)
Thank God for this app! I had been struggling to make out the time in the morning when I first wake up. The iPhone's time at the top of the screen is just too tiny for my old eyes. But then Big Clock came to the rescue. And I like the color settings, my favorite is blue.
You wont miss this clock. (UK)
You won't miss this clock app as it takes up the whole screen on an iPad. It's very simple but very effective.
Nice alarm clock (USA)
This is a nice huge clock for my night stand, it is so good I bought 2 more iPads solely to use this amazing app
Nice & Big (USA)
Exactly what I was looking for, except it asked me to review it about every ten minutes. I guess it worked 'cause here I am. I just needed a large format clock my wife could see at night from a distance. Haven't played much with the alarms and other features, assuming there are some. Good for what I needed and I didn't see any others that were as big. I love that it gets larger in Landscape than when it's in portrait mode. Others didn't do that either. Well done!
Mr. J (USA)
Love this app on my iPad. I carry it with me every where and use it in hotels since most hotel clocks are too small.

***NOTE: when app is off or in the background we run the default alarm sound. If you keep the app running then you will hear the alarm sound that you selected
***NOTE: Also red light color has the longest wave length. What that means is, if you want to see the clock clearly from as far away as possible then select RED color.

Family Guy is most definitely a love it or hate it kind of show. The devoted fans that bought DVDs in droves actually brought it back from cancellation, something thats basically unheard of for network TV. But there are plenty of detractorsincluding he guys behind South Park , who dedicated a two-part episode to criticizing itthat say its offensive, poorly animated and that the jokes come way too easily, from random pop-culture references instead of being earned through character or plot development. Seth MacFarlane, the creator of Family Guy and the voice of Peter, Stewie, Brian, Quagmire and more, will be in Long Beach to talk about behind-the-scenes details of the show (how do they pick which 80s cartoon to reference?) and probably do some of those (mostly) beloved characters.

My proof that the universe hates me is I just found out my younger brother's wife (who luckily I really like) got pregnant on her first try with IUi and injectibles. I'm just dreading the holidays now!
ARGH!!! At least my family is sensitive to my issues and my brtoher knows better than to complain his meds weren't covered 100% by insurance!
Thinking of you,

Oh Izzy--that is awful. I'm so sorry......I have to tell you after all the times we tried I came up with every theory I could as to why God didn't let it work. Why 4 m/c, why 2 ectopics---it was more than one person should have to put up with. I'm so sorry that this happened to you and I'm glad you're looking at SG...Give Amanda Seagal a call and she'll set you up.

Gov. Hassan's Attorney General: Why Joe Foster?
Foster is a successful and well-respected attorney for the McLane law firm, which bills itself as the state's largest (and best-connected) firm. But the resume that would open many doors for Foster should he seek employment at a bigger firm out of state poses some problems for him as an attorney general nominee.
Most obviously, Foster has no experience as a criminal prosecutor. His career specialty is bankruptcy law. That would be pretty good experience for the governor these days. But the attorney general is the state's top law enforcement officer. As such, he is in charge of investigating police shootings and prosecuting all homicides. Gov. Hassan wants to entrust all state homicide prosecutions to an attorney who has never prosecuted a pickpocket.
And as a business lawyer with numerous high-profile clients, who comes from a huge law firm with many more high-profile clients, Foster is likely to have to recuse himself from many, many cases to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest.
None of this is to suggest that Foster is not a highly capable attorney. It is just that his selection makes one wonder whether Gov. Hassan is after the best possible attorney general or the closest political ally.

PING G30 Driver 15 15
Easy to use Have tried several drivers with no success in trying to cut down my slice. This driver is so easy to hit. Most of my drives are either straight are with a baby draw. Ping always makes quality products. November 13, 2014
Long and Straight Usually play K 15 driver (off-set) and rarely miss fairway. Played G 30 today and very pleased with increased distance while staying in fairway. It's a keeper! October 28, 2014
Solid and Forgiving This review is for the g30 sftec driver which is the draw biased model. While this driver isn't longer than my previous driver (Tour Edge xcg7 beta) it is definitely more forgiving than that driver and probably any driver that I've hit. I'm not sure if these turbulators work or not but at the very least they are not as noticeable at address as you might think. Ball sounds really nice at impact and flight is high but doesn't balloon on you. It's real strong suit is its accuracy, this club all but eliminated the right side of the golf course, everything was straight down the middle or had a slight draw that still ended up in the fairway. I definitely recommend trying before buying, trusting someone else's review is only worth so much especially when it comes to golf clubs. The club has to suit not only your eye but your swing as well. Ping has always made quality clubs that hold their value well so you will have to pay as they don't drop in price very fast or by very much,but if you can swing it it's worth the investment. October 7, 2014
G30 HEAD- BEST ON CURRENT MARKET! Been playing a G-30 DEMO the past 3 rounds & PING has hit a winner here with this solid hot face. Misses are very playable & vary very little with one that was flushed. Just a matter of getting THAT shaft that works for you & maxes out what this club has the capabilities to do. Whether you go with one of the stock shafts PING offers or I suggest do it right & get fitted by the Shaft guru in your area based on your club/ball speed/spin rate . September 12, 2014
Powerful and straighter shots!!! I have a tendency like many to hit a driver great, or absolutely horrendous based upon the golf course. I tested this driver at Dick's and hit it further (according to the screen) than any driver I ever hit. Hence, bought it once it came in. Took it to my favorite course and hit drives 15-20 yards further than my normal best drives on that same course. Mishits somehow went straighter as well. Wow is all I can say.... September 4, 2014
Extreme Distance This driver is truly the next step in the distance category. I went to a driver fitting and when I hit it I automatically gained 16 yards with an extremely consistent ball flight. What a Driver!!!! August 16, 2014
Wow I normally hit a 265 yard drive with my TaylorMade SLDR. When I used this in a simulator I was getting 10+ yards further carry. Ping really brought out a great new club that all players need in their bag. Well worth the hefty price tag. August 16, 2014
good I have a ping g25 and added 2" to it with a stiff shaft I tried a new ping G30 sinore shaft I could note beleave it I hit it stright and 25 yd more. I ordered one.right away. August 15, 2014
Great club best driver ever Your employees are great to deal with ,100 percent better that Golfsmith The trade in was great and even thou you didn't have on the floor your employee looked on line and I purchased the g30 August 14, 2014
Fantastic driver I believe this driver is well worth the $350. I traded in my G25 and noticed an immediate improvement in dispersion. It has added approximately 5-7 yards to carry for me as well. It does feel much more solid at impact than the G25. It also has a more slightly muted sound on impact. I played 27 holes with this driver on my first outing with it and only hit one bad drive; a slight push. I'm a 10 handicap with a 270 (now easy 275) average carry. I truly believe this is a huge improvement over the G25 and is well worth the money. Ping is exceptionally reasonable, considering they have not added any markup to its latest G-driver innovations. You won't be disappointed! August 6, 2014

In today's Whiteboard Wednesday, Jay Leader, Rapid7's VP of IT and CIO will talk about the five questions you need to know the answer to before pitching security solutions to CIO's. If you struggle with finding the best way to communicate with your CIO/CISO about why a security solution is worth the money and implementation effort, this video is for you!
You will hear directly from Rapid7's CIO, the answers you need to explain your security solution recommendation effectively.
Read Video Transcript
Hi, everybody. My name is Jay Leader; I'm the Vice President of Information Technology and the Chief Information Officer at Rapid7. Today, I'd like to help see if I can answer a question that's commonly asked among IT and security professionals, which is: How do I get my proposals sold through my own CIO?
It's an interesting topic. A lot of times we focus on the fight for 'which product should I buy, and how do I make that selection?' only to be disappointed at the end when we find that it's almost harder to sell it to my management than it is to sell it to my partners. I'd like to share with you, from a CIO's perspective, some of the things that I look for in proposals. Hopefully, this will be helpful to you as you bring your ideas forward.
One of the things that I always think about is when you're bringing me this proposal what problem are you trying to solve, and why is it important? In IT, there are lots of problems every day, and in security, there are a lot of problems. There's lots of ways that we can solve them and a lot of things that we can work on, but with our limited resources, be they people or money, why is this the one that I want to work on now? I always want to hear that story almost as a first step, because if we can't answer that question, then the rest of it really doesn't matter. Be prepared to tell me why of all the sea of problems that we could be solving, why is this one, one that we want to take on? I think that's really important.
Then tell me how your process was, in terms of what you thought about, in terms of the solutions; things that you were looking for and the factors that you considered when you arrived at the conclusion that this particular proposal was the one. Part of what I always like to understand is what else did you look at, and why did you look at them? Then what were the factors that you used to rule out the things that you chose not to select, and there therefore, led you to select this.
The reason that I want to know that is because I want to make sure we're in alignment, in terms of what we think is important and what we think we're trying to achieve. If we center around the problem, that's good; we agree that it's a problem and it's an important one. Then the next thing I want to make sure that we're in alignment on is are you thinking about solving that problem the same way that I am; and more importantly, the same way that the business is?
Once we have that alignment, then I want to understand 'what's the complexity is and cost to actually implementing this?' Especially in IT products, lots of times it fails at this juncture. It is solving a real problem that I think is important, and it's a solution that will actually solve the problem, but when we get into the softer details, in terms of how many people do I need to be able to do this? How much time? How much cooperation do I need, and input and support to I need from people outside the organization, because that's often where the projects fail? The IT resources are aligned and teed up to work on it, but the business resources aren't. They either don't understand their responsibility, they don't have the time, or they don't put the seriousness into it. I want to understand if I've bought software that never gets implemented, then that's going to be a problem. I want to understand how we're thinking about implementation and what we think the challenges are.
Then the last thing that I think about is what are the risks? Because every technology project involves some level of risk. What are those risks in this particular case, be it in our company and/or this particular tool? Then what are you going to do to mitigate them? Do you have a plan, and have you thought through who you need and the things that could derail us? All of this leading up to, do I have the confidence that we could execute this plan with this tool to solve this problem at this time?
Then at the end, the uber question that I'm always concerned about is, how am I going to know that we got what we wanted? What's the measurable outcome? How do I know that it was a real problem, it was a good tool, we implemented it well; how do I know that at the end? At the end of the day, this is the ultimate return on investment question that I'll be asked by my management, and that the business will want to know, which is, "I gave you this much money to solve this problem. Did it work, and should I feel good about that?"
I think these are the things that most CIOs will be interested in understanding. I think if you can think through these things and bring me a case and a story that addresses these components to my satisfaction, then I think you up your chances of getting approval for your proposal. I think you'll find that in most of your environments, because most CIOs are thinking about these same things.
I hope this has been helpful for all of you. Thank you for your time. We look forward to speaking with you again

West Bloomfield school briefly locked down after assault
Updated On: Jun 05 2014 12:04:06 PM EDT
Sheiko Elementary in West Bloomfield Township was briefly put on lockdown Thursday morning while authorities investigated an assault.
West Bloomfield Schools Superintendent Gerald Hill said a female custodian was assaulted by her boyfriend just after 6 a.m. at the school.
The assault took place inside of the building. Students were not yet at the school. Alerts were sent out to parents. Students were taken by bus to the neighboring high school during the lock down.
"I got the alert on my phone and told my kids I am just keeping you home until we get the clear," said Andrea Griffen. "We have a great working relationship in our community with the schools and police but no matter how good of a job they do it still makes me feel uneasy."
Chief Michael Patton of West Bloomfield police described the assault as minor. Some items in the building were damaged and knocked over. The chief said no weapons were involved and sources say the suspect bit the female employee. She did not need immediate medical help.
The boyfriend is in custody.

Judge Upholds Commission's Actions On Casino
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) - An Iowa judge has upheld actions of the state's gaming commission over its decision to issue a casino license last year to a new developer in Sioux City.
Polk County District Court Judge Eliza Ovrom's ruling Friday upholds actions by the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission that led to a Hard Rock-themed casino and hotel.
Belle of Sioux City, operators of the former Argosy Sioux City riverboat casino, had sued to force the commission to reinstate its license and rescind the new one to the Hard Rock developer.
Ovrom dismissed claims the commission's actions were unreasonable and violated state law, among other arguments.
Belle of Sioux City is a subsidiary of Penn National Gaming. A message left for Penn was not immediately returned Friday.
ACLU Suing State Over Felon Voting Rights
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - The American Civil Liberties Union is challenging Iowa's tough policies that bar felons from voting.
A lawsuit filed Friday seeks to restore voting rights to thousands of former offenders before the 2016 presidential election. It also seeks to end confusion over the rules for ex-felons that followed a 2011 policy change by Gov. Terry Branstad.
Iowa is one of three states where felons cannot vote after completing their sentences until their rights are restored by the governor.
ACLU attorney Rita Bettis says the widespread denial of voting rights based on felony convictions "is the single biggest denial of civil rights in Iowa." She says it disenfranchises thousands of people and wants a court to limit the number of felony offenses that trigger the loss of voting rights.
Man Was Stabbed While Visiting House Of Murder
VILLISCA, Iowa (AP) - Authorities say a man staying overnight at a southern Iowa house where several brutal murders took place in 1912 has been hospitalized following a self-inflicted stab wound.
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office says Robert Laursen Jr., of Rhinelander, Wisconsin, was found early Friday inside the Villisca Axe Murder House with a stab wound. Investigators determined it was self-inflicted.
Laursen was eventually airlifted to an Omaha hospital. A hospital spokeswoman declined to provide details on his condition.
The Villisca Axe Murder House is the location of eight unsolved murders in 1912. The house and affiliated museum are popular with tourists who believe the structure is haunted. Owner Martha Linn says Laursen was part of a family group of paranormal investigators staying overnight.
Nurse To Surrender License
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - An ex-nurse at a Des Moines veteran's hospital has agreed to surrender his license after admitting to turning off equipment that would have alerted staff to a patient's low blood-oxygen level.
65-year-old Michael Deal died last March at the Department of Veterans Affairs hospital after oxygen levels in his blood dropped.
Nurse Bernard Nesbit was fired following the incident and had sought unemployment benefits, which were later denied. He said he turned off the alarms because they went off even if patients weren't in distress.
Iowa Board of Nursing records show Nesbit agreed to give up his state license for at least a year to settle an ethics charge. Nesbit has declined to comment.
Teen Found Not Guilty Of Murder By Reason Of Insanity
LOGAN, Iowa (AP) - An Iowa teenager who claimed he killed his 5-year-old foster brother because he thought the child was a goblin has been found not guilty by reason of insanity.
Harrison County District Court Judge Kathleen Kilnoski issued her ruling Friday in the bench trial of Cody Metzker-Madsen, who was charged with first-degree murder in the August 2013 death of Dominic Elkins.
Authorities say Metzker-Madsen killed Dominic while the two played outside of their home in western Iowa. Metzker-Madsen was 17 when the boy's body was found at the bottom of a ravine.
Metzker-Madsen told the judge during the trial that he believed he was in a fantasy world and thought he was killing a goblin instead of Dominic.
Branstad Open To Idea Of Raising Gas Tax For Roads
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Gov. Terry Branstad says providing more funding to fix Iowa's crumbling roads is a top priority and that he is keeping an open mind to all options, including raising the state's fuel tax.
Branstad said in an interview Thursday that he wants to get input from lawmakers in advance of the next legislative session, with hopes of reaching bipartisan consensus. Branstad did not back any specific plan. The Legislature has failed to find compromise on this issue in recent years.
The Republican governor, who just won re-election to a sixth non-consecutive term, said the timing was good to start this conversation because gas prices have "dropped significantly." But Branstad stressed he would like to find a new funding approach that is "not just the old gas tax."

I was thinking perhaps willow bark tea, but that's not something I keep, or can use easily. I can't take Tylenol at all, and so most common over the counter stuff (like Midol) is pretty much out of the question. Which got me started wondering what the ladies USED to do to resolve such things and if there was something that could be easily added to an herbal carry along basket for events.

See, our band's kinda moving towards this new sound where... we suck, so... practice. _______________________________________________ Herbalist mailing list Herbalist at ansteorra.org http://www.ansteorra.org/mailman/listinfo/herbalist

Hal Ashby
David Carradine, Ronny Cox, Melinda Dillon, Gail Strickland, John Lehne
About this title: Adapted by Robert Getchell from Woody Guthrie's autobiography, Hal Ashby's biopic portrays a few pivotal years in the life of the celebrated folk singer and social activist. In the Depression 1930s, Midwesterner Guthrie (David Carradine) plays music locally but cannot make enough as a sign painter to support his wife (Melinda Dillon) and children. With only his paintbrushes, Woody joins the migration westward from the Dust Bowl to supposedly greener California pastures via boxcar and hitchhiking. When penniless Woody is ...
