ALAIEDON TWP - A local deputy made an intoxicating discovery Monday. The Ingham County deputy discovered 100 pounds of marijuana inside a car during a traffic stop.
At around 10:30a.m. Monday Deputy Scott Macomber pulled the car over along I-96 near the 127 interchange in Alaiedon Township for failing to signal during a lane change. After running the license plate, the deputy discovered the driver had a warrant out for failing to appear on a drunk driving charge.
During the traffic stop Deputy Macomber noticed a strong smell of marijuana, along with other indicators of possible drug activity. The driver denied having any marijuana, but a search of the car revealed two black trash bags. The bags contained 6 bricks of marijuana, weighing approximately 100 pounds all together. The deputy also confiscated $1,500 in cash and the car.
The driver was arrested for possession with intent to deliver marijuana. He is a 35-year-old Muskegon Heights man. His name is not being released until the arraignment, which is expected to be Tuesday afternoon.

BSOD after updating to 304.48 and trying to enable SLI with Evga 580's
So my pc was working fine until I did a clean install of the latest nvidia beta driver 304.48.
I did a clean install from 301.42 and it did initially crash then I rebooted and tried it again. I have since tried multiple times going back and forth between both drives using revo unintaller pro, and ccleaner to clean things up.
But, now neither driver allows me to activate SLI. The PC just crashes instantly.

Crashes are being caused by your Intel graphics driver: igdkmd64.sys
It may be related to the missing Intel device driver mentioned above. Install all Intel drivers from your motherboard support site, especially the Intel Smart Connect driver ver:2.0.1083.0 listed there. I would also suggest disabling the Intel graphics driver in Device Manager if you are using the NVIDIA graphics cards.
Also, use the following steps for re-installing display card drivers or swapping the drivers/software:

It's a complicated -- but worthwhile -- weekend at the Tempe Improv. First of all, it's truly improvisational: Sketch comedian Wayne Brady appears Thursday, November 9; Friday, November 10; and Sunday, November 12, at the Tempe Improv Comedy Theater.
Brady has emerged as the most acclaimed of the performers on ABC's Whose Line Is It Anyway?, in which suggestions from the audience or from moderator Drew Carey are turned into improv sketch comedy or, in Brady's case, sometimes impromptu songs. The series has become such a showcase for Brady that he is soon to get a show of his own on that same network. Those who saw his performance in Tempe earlier this year say it was phenomenally hilarious.
Arsenio Hall is scheduled to perform at 8 and 10 p.m. Saturday, November 11. Tickets are $25. For details call 480-921-9877.
Brady, however, takes Saturday, November 11, off to make room for Arsenio Hall. The good-natured host of Fox's The Arsenio Hall Show -- the first late-night gab fest to threaten Carson -- and co-star of the Eddie Murphy films Coming to America and Harlem Nights, Hall looked poised for superstardom during the early '90s. That didn't happen, but he's never been out of work, either. In recent years, he's been a regular on the TV series Martial Law, and he's had a steady gig as the "Save a buck or two" guy in those phone-company commercials. Wonder if Brady will spend his night off whoop-whooping with Arsenio?

got a proxy link in browser, didn't ask for it, possible threat ?
I recently noticed that when I surf to amazon my address url quickly flashes
then to the normal amazon.com address. I can surf elsewhere and it does not do that, only when I go to amazon. And only on win 7 x86 and x64.
I removed all my bookmarks from Firefox as I thought it was hijacking that bookmark, I do not remember history in FF and I started opening to a blank page all to no avail.
What is this ? Is it a threat ? and how do I get rid of it ?
I use Comodo Firewall, Superantispyware and Malwarebytes
did a scan and nothing.
Emailed amazon and they say it's not theirs but that may be a canned response from someone low down in the chain that are clueless.
What is this ? Is it a threat ? and how do I get rid of it ?
It's really bugging me as amazon stores info on their server's.

It looks like something to do with coupons/cash back rebates... "RewardFinds". It does have something to do with Amazon, but you may have been caught up in a javascript.
Lets clean out all Temporary files: download TFC by Old Timer TFC - Temp File Cleaner by OldTimer - Geeks to Go Forums and save it to your desktop.

Double-click on TFC.exe to run it. If you are using Vista/Windows 7 right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator.
Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process and let it run uninterrupted to completion.
Important! If TFC prompts you to reboot, please do so immediately. If not prompted, manually reboot the machine anyway to ensure a complete clean.
After you've done that, make sure proxy settings are disabled:
1) Under Tools in the browser tool bar select Internet Options.
2) In the Internet Options window that pops up, click the Connections tab at the top.
3) Click LAN Settings near the bottom of the Connections section.
4) If the Proxy server checkbox is marked with a check, click it to deselect/uncheck it.
5) Click Ok to close the Local Area Network (LAN) Settings window.

Horse-Drawn Sled Rides at Leonard's Mills + Molasses Cookie Recipe
It's shaping up to be a great winter for outdoor activities. Plenty of snow for whatever you want to do, including the horse-drawn sled rides at Leonard's Mills in Bradley. It's a great way to tour the Maine Forest and Logging Museum's historic compound, and it's a fun and scenic way to pass a winter day!
The rides at Leonard's Mills are a little different than most because they use an authentic sled designed to haul wood

Ok, so last night I kept waking up breathing out of my mouth. I would go to sleep breathing through my nose, but when I woke up the air was rushing in my nose and out of my mouth. I suspect this defeats the purpose of the CPAP if you are essentially releasing the pressure through your mouth.
I have the swift nasal pillows. When I got them I asked the RT about mouth breathing, and she told me that a lot of people are able to train themselves to breath from there nose instead of mouth.
So does anyone have any good pointers on how to "train" yourself to breath through your nose?
When i am conscious, I do it no problem, but how to I teach my unconscious self to keep my mouth shut?

The Helix Planetary Nebula
Image: Blanco Telescope and HST: C.R.O'Dell and ESA, NASA.A planetary nebula is the remnant of stars similar in mass to our Sun. The core of the stars has collapsed down to about the size of the Earth and is called a 'White Dwarf'. The outer parts of the star have blown off into space including the elements such as carbon and oxygen which were created in the star as it went through its red giant phase. The Helix nebula lies in the constellation Aquarius at a distance of 700 light years and is the nearest planetary nebula to the Earth. It spans 3 light years across.

Updated: April 17, 2013 6:11AM
Boeing CEO James McNerney got a 20 percent pay raise in 2012, to $27.5 million, due largely to a boost in his performance-based bonus calculated before regulators grounded the Chicago-based company's full fleet of 787 Dreamliners because of battery problems, according to the company's proxy statement filed Friday.
McNerney's base salary remained the same, at $1.93 million; his yearly bonus also stayed the same, at $4.4 million, and his three-year, long-term cash award jumped nearly 50 percent, to $6.38 million from $4.265 million in 2011. He also received $7.53 million in stock and option awards.
The long-term award is based on exceeding profit targets over a cumulative three-year period, starting in 2010.
Boeing reported in January its $81.7 billion in 2012 revenue set a record for a single year and was up 19 percent from the prior year.
The Dreamliner battery debacle led to the grounding on Jan. 16.

Flu shot may lower risk of heart attack
Published On: Oct 23 2013 07:53:18 AM EDT
There may be an added benefit to getting the flu vaccine.
According to Toronto researchers, the flu shot may also help lower your risk of a heart attack.
Researchers at the Women's College of Hospital and University of Toronto studied a total of 3,227 patients.
Researchers found among patients with coronary artery disease, those who received the vaccine were half as likely to develop a major heart event compared to those who did not get the vaccine.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, roughly 600,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year.

Ms Jelena's product review of FITme Bronzer by Maybelline New YorkView Ms Jelena's profile

Another review for glosscars
As I said, this bronzer is not bad and now that I have less tan, I find it a lot nicer and more flattering on my skin. This bronzer isn't very pigmented, so when tanned, it's barely noticeable when it's applied. It gives a nice glowy look though and I will probably repurchase it. I think it might be a good product for contouring!
Love the packaging, it's nice and compact and the price is also very reasonable!

Well, Hello There, Nick Jonas' Abs
Nick Jonas posted a shirtless selfie to Instagram Tuesday afternoon and we can hardly describe our response to seeing his crazy fit figure. Perhaps Joey Lawrence can help?
The 20-year-old JoBro flaunted his hunky new physique, writing, "I never do this but... Healthy living and fitness update. Post workout picture. #diabeticinshape #2.0."
Healthy living and fitness, indeed.
The buff "Who I Am" singer has been busy touring with The Jonas Brothers, who are set to release their fifth studio album, V, later this year.
He clearly has had some time to work on his fitness, too. Keep doing what you're doing, Nick.

Interview on Persuasion Architecture, Personas and ROI
Posted By Holly Buchanan On April 17, 2008 @ 11:19 am In Interviews,Personas,Persuasion Architecture | 8 Comments
In case you weren't able to join me today at the King Conversion: Websites that Sell [1] conference in Erie, PA — put on by the fabulous folks at eBizITPA [2] — I at least wanted to share a recent interview on personas and persuasive planning.
I had a chance to sit down with Cathy von Birgelen to talk about what's on the mind of Pennsylvania business owners, and what they want to know about improving their websites and other online marketing efforts. You probably have a lot of the same questions and I think I may have some answers for you.
You can either download the interview (by right-clicking here [3]) or just listen to it streaming below:
Click here for Holly's interview
Need to bookmark this for the next time you've got a few minutes? No problem. I'll be going into more detail in the actual presentation, but…
Here's what's covered in the interview:
• How to start a meaningful relationship with Customers. (Hint: don't ask them to marry you on the first date [4].)
• The four buying modes — Spontaneous, Competitive, Humanistic and Methodical [5] — and how to increase conversion based on understanding what information each type wants and how they want that information presented. (There's no such thing as an average customer.)
• How to use personas to create persuasive messages that speak to people in their language about what they care about. (Because it can't always be about you.)
• The real purpose of your homepage and how to reduce those nasty battles over that prime real estate. (I know, I've seen the scars and bruises.)
• Common conversion mistakes and how to make simple changes that can have a big impact on your bottom line. (Seriously, you'll be smacking your head and going, "duh" — here's how Amazon does it [6].)
• Content for search engines vs. content for customers (Who said you had to choose?)
• What analytics to focus on that can actually tell you something about your site and where it's most broken. (Hey, if you want to go ahead and read those 20 page analytics reports,knock yourself out. But if you want to know 5 specific metrics to look at, let's talk [7].)

Need new recipe ideas to brighten up broccoli? Or looking for a classic cauliflower cheese? From sweet potato wedges to stuffed marrow - we have loads of great recipes for delicious vegetable side dishes.
These roasties are lovely and crispy, perfect for all roast dinners. The tumeric gives a nice colour, but it isn't important for the taste.
Recipe by: MARLENE28
Looks similar to colcannon, but champ is native to the North of Ireland. It's made by blending spring onions with creamy mashed potatoes. Great on its own, served steaming hot with extra butter which will melt through it. But it's also the perfect side dish for good quality sausages.
Recipe by: Ita
Packed with vitamins and dietary fibre, these are a healthy and tasty alternative to regular chips. Best eaten at room temperature.
Recipe by: Christine L.
Brussels are delicious when fried with bacon or pancetta. When you're busy in the kitchen at Christmas, this quick and flavourful side dish is a welcome time-saver.
Recipe by: MARNZ01
Parsnips are tossed with olive oil, garlic and honey, then roasted until crispy on the outside, but sweet and mellow on the inside. They are then tossed with fresh mint and sage. Serve as a side dish.

Wednesday night, third baseman Chone Figgins threw away a potential double-play ball in the sixth inning, allowing the Royals to wipe out a 3-1 deficit and proceed to a 4-3 win over the Angels. Figgins, who made three errors in 56 games at third base last season, has already made seven errors in half that number of games at the hot corner this year.
The Angels, a team without a lot of power at the plate, pride themselves on having above-average pitching and defense. But in large part because of the disappointing defense, the Angels are in last place in the AL West and are only 2-4 on the current homestand playing the Mariners and Royals.
The news isn't any better in the Angels' minor leagues where only low-A Cedar Rapids ranks in the top half of its league for team fielding percentage. Triple-A Salt Lake is 12th among the 16 members of the Pacific Coast League.

Choose Your Helicopter Tour
If you decide to have a Grand Canyon tour from Las Vegas, have in mind that there are two options you can choose – aerial and landing helicopter tours. Aerial are those that do not land at the canyon and the landing are those that do. Both have their advantages, and we will help you decide which one to choose.
Grand Celebration Tour
This is the helicopter tour that stands out as the glorious gem stone of the helicopter tours.
Grand Canyon Sunset
All other competition is being upstaged by the Grand Celebration Sunset Tour as you fly over the Lake Mead, Hoover Dam and the nature's wonder – Grand Canyon.
Grand Canyon Skywalk and Boat
The Skywalk Getaway with Helicopter and Boat pairs together three of the most popular tour activities in the western part of Grand Canyon.
Grand Celebration with Las Vegas Strip Tour
Your Grand Celebration with Vegas Strip tour begins when a limousine picks you up from your hotel and takes you to the Atlantic Airport, where you'll relax in our executive helicopter terminal.
Sunset Grand Celebration with Las Vegas Strip
If the Grand Celebration is the crowning jewel in our helicopter tour collection, then there's simply no surpassing our Sunset Grand Celebration with Las Vegas Strip tour.
Grand Celebration with Eldorado Canyon
From your Las Vegas hotel, embark on an adventure that encompasses both natural beauty and historical significance. Your tour starts when we pick you up and transport you to the airport.
Las Vegas helicopter tours to Grand Canyon with landing
The leader in the Las Vegas helicopter tours – Papillon, provides a great opportunity to access one of the most beautiful areas of the world, through its Grand Canyon helicopter tours with landing. Thanks to them, you will enjoy the breathtaking grandeur of the Grand Canyon and you will have the privilege to descend 4000 feet, and land at its bottom alongside the Colorado River.
Anyone who chooses Las Vegas helicopter tours to the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam has the opportunity to take great pictures. The wonderful geographical rock formations carved over the years, the erosion in bright colors and hues can be used as a background. Meanwhile, a light lunch is served under an authentic Indian Ramada.
And before you fly away back to your hotel, a bottle of champagne is opened to celebrate the amazing day.
The Grand Celebration is a jewel in the crown of the Papillon helicopter tours to Grand Canyon and generally the most popular. It offers amazing aerial views not only of the canyon but Hoover Dam and Lake Mead as well. Above all if you choose the Grand Celebration tour, you will have the opportunity to land at the bottom of the canyon next to the Colorado River and have lunch in the middle of this incredible beauty.
There are different variation of the tour allowing guests to enjoy the Grand Canyon at sunset and to fly over the Las Vegas Strip during the day or again at sunset.
One of the best helicopter tours is the Grand Celebration Skywalk and Boat tour. It pairs 3 of the most preferred tour activities in the western part of Grand Canyon at the same time.
The tour starts in Las Vegas by flying over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and then straight to the bottom of Grand Canyon. There each of the guests can take a ride on the mighty Colorado River on a pontoon boat. And this is the place where people can view the canyon from a really stunning perspective.
After the boat tour on Colorado River, the guests are re-boarded on the helicopter to enjoy an amazing aerial tour to the world famous Grand Canyon Skywalk bridge. We guarantee that you will have a thrilling experience for a life time and of course you can take pictures, so you can show them to your friends and family after that.
The Golden Eagle Air Tour is perfect for Las Vegas guests who are pressed on time and desire to see as much of the Grand Canyon as possible.
Aerial Grand Canyon helicopter tours from Las Vegas
If you do not have enough time for landing, but you still want to see Grand Canyon, there are several other helicopter tours from Las Vegas that will allow you to see the amazing creation of mother's nature.
Mostly the aerial tour is a 3 hour adventure which offers you a thrilling experience flying over the South Rim and West Rim landmarks of the canyon. And don't forget that there is also Las Vegas Strip helicopter tour which includes a trip to the canyon.
We do not want to reveal the whole magic of the tours. However, on your ride you will hear a recorded multilingual narration that tells the fun facts and amazing history about the area and the Canyon's points of interest. You will learn more about the Boulder city, the amazing engineering wonder Hoover Dam, the Lake Mead, and the Colorado River.
If you are in Las Vegas, pressed on time, but want to see as much as possible the Golden Eagle Air Tour is perfect for you! Departing from Papillon's private heliport near the city, you will see amazing aerial views of the Lake Mead, Hoover Dam and of course the spectacular Grand Canyon. This is the most extensive helicopter tour from Las Vegas.
Flying like a bird into the mysterious depths of the Grand Canyon, and being safe is possible with the most comfortable-tourism based helicopter in the world – the EcoStar EC130.
What else can we offer you?
And this is not the only tour we can offer you. Here are other helicopter aerial tours:
- Vegas Strip Tour – Aerial Tour over Vegas Strip & Downtown. This is quick and easy way for everybody who wants to try out the helicopter tours while enjoying the views over Downtown and Las Vegas Strip.
- Golden Eagle and Vegas Strip – with these tour your can enjoy both Grand Canyon and Las Vegas Strip
- Hoover Dam Helicopter Air Tour – here is your chance to see the engineering wonder, built by people who gave their lifes for it.
Starting points
The helicopter tours take off from one of two places: Las Vegas, Nevada or Grand Canyon National Park Airport (Tusayan, Arizona).
Note: The helicopter tours to Grand Canyon fly only to the West Rim. And the flights out of Tusayan only go to the South Rim. At a distance of 277 miles from Las Vegas, the South Rim is too far for helicopters. There are no air tours between the South and West Rim.
So now you know the starting locations of the helicopter tours to Grand Canyon. But which one to choose – the South Rim or the West Rim? If you want to see the Grand Canyon Skywalk and have thrilling helicopter flight 3,500 feet down to the canyon floor, then we recommend you The West Rim. In case that you are mainly looking for aerial views of the spectacular natural charm, then we recommend you the Grand Canyon South Rim.
How far is Grand Canyon from Las Vegas? By car/bus it can take up to 5 to 6 hours (roughly 300-360 miles away). By helicopter it will take around 45 minutes to 1 hour to the West Rim (around 120 miles away).

We've finally set off! After a last minute outfit change from Michael who leaned against a wet window ledge, we were set!
First we took a flight 7 hour flight from Dublin to the very extravagant Dubai for a 3 hour stop over and then onward to Bangkok. The first flight went very smoothly, we managed to get seats with an extra bit of leg room which made the flight very comfy, not as comfy as these premium seats we walked by though!
The second flight was a 6 hour flight from Dubai to Bangkok on a double decker A380, our seats were near the front with little room to even wiggle toes! With no chance of getting some sleep, I resorted to watching pocahontas for in flight entertainment (choices weren't the best). It seemed like an extra long flight before we got to Bangkok, but thankfully, we landed safely. When we got off the plane we were greeted by a film crew who are making a documentary about Bangkok airport. They did a quick interview with us and then they put mics on us and followed us through the process of locating bags and finding our way to our accommodation. At that stage, we traveled about 15 hours with about 3 hours sleep, god only knows what we said! Eventually, we found our shuttle bus to our airport accommodation to the night and made it to Floral Shire Hotel and packed it in for the evening.
The next morning, we headed to Chaing Mai, north Thailand, the last bit of travelling before we could start exploring Thailand. We headed to Suvarnabhumi Airport airport where we got a free shuttle bus to the smaller Don Muang airport, this is where we found Nemo, our plane to Chaing Mai.
Although it was only a 1 hour flight to Chiang Mai, it was also the most nerve racking. Its hard to trust a plane that looks like a fish from a childrens cartoon!
When we reached Chaing Mai airport, we got a taxi to the Aoi garden hostel, so let the adventures in Chaing Mai begin! :)

'Liar, liar, pants on fire'. . .the great courtside heckles of our timeGiles Smith
Prince Harry delivered the message on behalf of millions of Britons as Lewis Hamilton joined the greatest British drivers of all-time by becoming the 2014 Formula One world champion. It was a day for history marked by congratulations from the man who is fourth in line to the British throne. Prince Harry borrowed a radio from the Mercedes pitwall team to tell the new champion and winner of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix: "You are an absolute legend." He is, too: Hamilton becomes the first Mercedes world champion since the great Juan Manuel Fangio in 1955. Hamilton also makes up an elite quartet of British drivers who have won double championships, alongside Sir Jackie Stewart, Jim Clark and Graham Hill. There were hugs and smiles, not least among Hamilton's family who turned up at the last minute as a surprise. He was not expecting Anthony and Linda, his p
A week that began with Roger Federer seemingly at war with his principal team-mate and so badly incapacitated that he was rated doubtful to play ended with Switzerland celebrating their first Davis Cup triumph yesterday. Federer, the 17-time grand-slam singles champion, claimed the only leading trophy missing from his collection by beating Richard Gasquet in the first reverse singles in Lille, his 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 victory giving the Swiss an unassailable 3-1 lead over France. It was after Federer had withdrawn from the final of the ATP World Tour Finals in London last Sunday because of a back injury that stories started circulating of a fallout with Stan Wawrinka, his compatriot, apparently caused by comments made by Mirka, Federer's wife. However, in the wake of yesterday's triumph, Federer, 33, had nothing but praise for his younger team-mate. "I'm happy I
Stephen Myler praised Northampton Saints for their clinical edge after a win that took them back to the top of the Aviva Premiership. The England fly half kicked 16 of his side's points and pressed his claims for another international opportunity with a cool and composed performance at a rain-soaked Allianz Park. Luther Burrell limped out of the action three minutes from the end with a slight ankle injury, but the Northampton and England centre, hoping to play his way back into Stuart Lancaster's side for the international against Australia on Saturday, shrugged it off as "a minor strain and nothing to worry about" as he sat down to watch the end of the action. Burrell missed England's matches against South Africa and Samoa after damaging a hand against New Zealand and did enough while on the field yesterday to press his claims of a recall. James Wilson

recovery failed, both on recovery hard drive portion and recovery disks. What I'm doing now is wiping C drive clean and factory settings. Nothing to lose. If it's still f***ed up, it's Acer's problem, shit shouldn't be happening on a 3 month old laptop, even if it is my fault I got a virus if the factory reset is screwed that's Acer's fault, as it's sole purpose of recovery and restore is to fix problems like I got.
|My System Specs
|29 Mar 2011
Little update: rebooting from factory settings failed from recovery disks. I am trying from the recovery portion. If something is wrong with it, the laptop is completely f***ed up. Including the recovery portion. And it's not my fault. If the virus somehow managed to corrupt the recovery portion partition, then at least the disks should've worked. If both fail, the laptop was f***ed from the start.

If you wiped the HD, you'll not have a Recovery partition to restore from.
You'll need to try to run the Recovery Disks again.
Then you can either find a Windows 7 installer for your version to clean reinstall without the Acer factory bloatware: Reinstalling Windows 7 - Windows 7 Forums
Or call Acer tech support which is included in your Warranty for the first year. Tell them you have tried to run Factory Recovery from the partition and the disks, in that order, and that neither will work. Don't disclose anything else - they can get jiggy about wiping HD's or clean reinstalling. Just dont' tell them that.
Let them walk you through whatever troubleshooting they do nowadays (don't expect much) to see if they have a fix for a known issue. If not, they will likely want to send you a new Recovery Disk set. You can accept that, then while waiting for the disks try the clean reinstall.
Or you can insist that they RMA the machine. Be polite but firm, never lose your temper or whine. Your purpose is to see if they have a fix for a known issue, discover your options. If I don't like the way an agent is handling it, I politely say I have to go, then call back to try another.

It's going back to factory, I already contacted Acer. But tell me if I I got conned out of 100 bucks: The laptop was 1000 dollars, but they charged me an extra 100 bucks for some preloaded fee, like putting on windows 7 and making recovery disks. But, there was a hard drive partition on the Acer for recovery! Can a store make a hard drive partition for recovery on the hard drive? Or is it the factory that did it? Cause if the factory did it, all the store made was some useless recovery disks without installing the OS (I did not get an original pure Windows 7 CD form the store), with the disks being the exact same thing as the recovery portion, and therefore useless. That would mean the factory already preloaded everything!!!F*** Staples, they may flaunt a nice deal in front of your eyes, but they just f*** you in the end anyway.
|My System Specs
|30 Mar 2011
Did Windows 7 come with the PC? Do you have a COA sticker with Product Key on the machine? If so then they charged you $100 to make your Recovery Disks.
Tips to Clean up factory bloatware
|My System Specs
|30 Mar 2011
Yeah, I got scammed. Windows 7 sticker came on the laptop. The store did no work. They said they had to install the OS which takes 5 hours, and make recovery disks, but I have a recovery portion on the laptop. They charged me 100 bucks for 5 f***ing disks. I'm going to Staple tomorrow, even though its been 4 months, this is a scam. They said they had to put work into installing the OS, which they didn't. They basically stole the money. The recovery disks they made were not working anyway.
|My System Specs
|30 Mar 2011
It will be interesting to hear why they had to install the OS on factory preinstalled Windows 7.
Maybe you can at least bargain to get a Windows 7 installation DVD for your licensed version.. There's value in getting one.

Volvo rolls out exclusive C30 Black Design for Italy... does it look better? [w/poll]
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Apr 7th, 2011 at 6:40PM
2011 Volvo C30 Black Design – Click above for high-res image gallery The Volvo C30 is a bit of a divisive design. Some love the radical P1800ES-inspired hatch, while others find it awkward. But maybe the brand's latest special edition can help. Called the C30 Black Design, it's limited exclusively to the Italian market and to just 600 examples. What sets it apart is the application of a 3M carbon-look film to the roof, pillars, grille surround and wing mirrors. There's also 17-inch matte black wheels (upgradable to 18-inchers) and a specially trimmed interior with individualized... Read More

Indiana State Law Summary
Posted on January 2, 2012
Last updated December 9, 2013
In our publication 2013 State Scorecard: Why Gun Laws Matter, the Law Center ranked each state based on a review of state laws in 30 different firearms-related policy areas. Indiana ranked 24th out of 50 – having few gun violence prevention laws.
In 2013, the Indiana legislature enacted new laws that relate to firearms. These new laws are described below.
Laws that Weaken Gun Regulation
|Adds knowing and intentional element to crime of an unlicensed person selling a handgun, crimes involving machine guns, and possessing a firearm while boarding an aircraft or while on the grounds of a school or on a school bus.
|Allows firearms to be carried at K-12 schools by a person who has been authorized to do so by the school board.
Among other things, Indiana:
- Requires retail handgun dealers to obtain a state license; and
- Prohibits domestic violence misdemeanants from purchasing or possessing firearms.
Indiana does not, however:
- Require a background check prior to the transfer of a firearm between private parties;
- Prohibit the transfer or possession of assault weapons, 50 caliber rifles or large capacity ammunition magazines;
- License firearm owners;
- Require the registration of firearms;
- Limit the number of firearms that may be purchased at one time;
- Impose a waiting period on firearm purchases; or
- Regulate unsafe handguns.
Local governments in Indiana generally lack authority to regulate firearms or ammunition, and the state requires local law enforcement to issue a concealed handgun license to any applicant who meets certain basic qualifications.
In 2010, Indiana had the 25th highest number of gun deaths per capita among the states. Based on data published by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Indiana supplied the 8th highest number of crime guns to other states per capita in 2009. Indiana supplies crime guns to other states at a rate that is more than double the national average. Indiana exports more than three times as many crime guns as it imports.

Stable films containing CdS quantum dots of mean size 3.4 nm embedded in a solid host matrix are prepared using a room temperature chemical route of synthesis. CdS/synthetic glue nanocomposites are characterized using high resolution transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. Significant blue shift from the bulk absorption edge is observed in optical absorption as well as photoacoustic spectra indicating strong quantum confinement. The exciton transitions are better resolved in photoacoustic spectroscopy compared to optical absorption spectroscopy. We assign the first four bands observed in photoacoustic spectroscopy to 1s e –1s h , 1p e –1p h , 1d e –1d h and 2p e –2p h transitions using a non interacting particle model. Nonlinear absorption studies are done using z-scan technique with nanosecond pulses in the off resonant regime. The origin of optical limiting is predominantly two photon absorption mechanism.

Sprint rolling out LTE to 21 new markets on April 12, according to leak
According to a document obtained by PhoneArena, Sprint will be rolling out LTE to 21 new markets tomorrow, April 12. Sprint has said that the roll out in Los Angeles will be more of a soft roll out as they continue to test bits and pieces much like the San Francisco roll out has taken place.
The markets below are said to be receiving LTE tomorrow:
- California: Los Angeles, Contra Costa County
- Florida: Palm Bay, Port St. Lucie, West Palm Beach
- Indiana: Bloomington and Lafayette
- Illinois: Rochelle
- Minnesota: Mankato-North Mankato
- Missouri: Joplin
- North Carolina: Charlotte, Shelby, Albemarle, Sailsbury, Lincolnton
- Tennessee: Memphis, Greenville, Tullahoma
- Texas: Denison, Kerrville
- Virginia: Norfolk-Virginia Beach-Newport News
The document says that users will be able to enjoy download speeds of 6-8 Mbps down and 2-3 Mbps up. Of course, to use LTE, you'll need an LTE compatible Sprint device such as the LG Optimus G, Samsung Galaxy S III, Samsung Galaxy Note II, or Apple iPhone 5. I'm still waiting for LTE to come to a city near me.
Verizon CEO takes credit for LTE-capable iPhone, states that video streaming accounts for 50% of their traffic
Verizon's chief executive has come out swinging, saying that video streaming now accounts for 50% of Verizon's traffic. Verizon CEO, Lowell McAdam, was speaking at the National Association of Broadcasters, when he said that his company's investment in their LTE network has benefited their customers, making high-quality streaming video possible.
He also said that with 3G you could only watch small video clips that require heaps of buffering, but with 4G LTE there are endless possibilities. The network believes that streaming video will continue to be popular with customers, and that by 2017 it could consume two-thirds of all traffic on the Verizon network.
Google Fiber rollout has cost $100 million so far
Google's rollout of their gigabit broadband Internet service, Google Fiber, has cost the Mountain View-based company around $100 million so far. We've now got Carlos Kirjner and Ram Parameswaran of Bernstein Research estimating that the gigabit Internet rollout has cost Google $94 million total so far.
The estimate that Google have spent $42 million in Kansas and $52 million in Missouri. The analysts have the idea that the Austin rollout will cost around the same amount as the Kansas City, but they have remained skeptical on a nationwide build out. They added:
We remain skeptical that Google will find a scalable and economically feasible model to extend its build out to a large portion of the US, as costs would be substantial, regulatory and competitive barriers material, and in the end the effort would have limited impact on the global trajectory of the business.
Intel debuts next-gen Thunderbolt capable of 20Gbps throughput, 4K video
Engadget is at NAB in Las Vegas, Nevada checking out the latest technology from Intel. Intel debuted an upgraded Thunderbolt technology capable of 20 Gbps in both directions. This is double that of the previous Thunderbolt iteration, which was only capable of 10 Gbps.
Intel stated that they currently have around 200 licensees and added that more Thunderbolt devices should be coming in the upcoming months. Intel also added that thinner Thunderbolt cables are in the works. The upcoming controller is code-named Redwood Ridge and Intel added that it will be built into some of Intel's upcoming Haswell processors.
Falcon Ridge, the next-gen Thunderbolt technology, will enable 4K video file transfer and display. This will be in addition to being capable of 20 Gbps transfer. The technology will be backwards compatible with previous cables and connectors.
ConfirmedTT: Austin, TX getting Google Fiber, roll out date unknown at this time
It has been confirmed that Austin, Texas will be getting the elusive Google Fiber. Austin, TX will be just the second city to get access to Google's super-fast 1Gbps fiber internet connection and TV service. Kansas City, Kansas and Missouri is the other city to have access to Google's fiber ISP.
Gig.U congratulates Google and the City of Austin for their initiative to bring a world-leading network to one of the world's great research university communities. This effort will pay enormous dividends for the country, as it will help develop the human capital America needs to lead a global economy that increasingly creates value with big data and big bandwidth. The Austin project, as well as the recent response to the North Carolina Next Generation Network project demonstrates that university communities are increasingly recognized as attractive partners for next generation network deployments because of the innovative spirit and demand profiles of their residents. We look forward to watching and learning from the exciting growth and innovation to come from the Google Fiber projects, and accelerating such efforts in Gig.U communities throughout the country.
It's probably not enough to draw most people to move to Austin, but it could certainly help the start-up scene. Austin, Texas is already home to the South by Southwest conference and start-ups wouldn't have to travel if they were already based in Austin.

US Cellular offers customers to sample their network without signing a contract
US Cellular is trying something new for their would-be customers, where they're offering up some play-before-you-pay trials saving customers from signing a two-year agreement, to only be disappointed with US Cellular's network performance.
The offer is for just selected markets, starting off with Eureka, CA, Klamath Falls, OR and Knoxville, TN. Some carriers already offer this, but what happens here is that you don't need to actually sign a contrat in order to get any of the equipment to test their network out. US Cellular will instead offer a loan device, with three on offer: Motorola's Electrify M, Samsung Chrono 2 or Samsung Galaxy Metrix, which can be used for eight days with 500 minutes, 500 texts and 1GB of data included.
This is a great way to test out their network, to see if it's worth a dive into a two-year contract on a new device.
Skype now connects users for a total of 2 billion minutes every day
Microsoft has announced a major milestone for the video and instant messaging platform Skype. They say that Skype users now use the service for a total of two billion minutes every day. To celebrate and explain just how large two billion minutes is, Microsoft provided the following infographic:
Two billion minutes is a testament to our users who are making Skype the everyday communications hub that brings people together. This massive amount of connection - enough time to watch 1.6 million movies - is also a testament to the hard work of our product teams who have enabled these great experiences. Whether making a voice or video call, sending an instant message, sharing a file or connecting with a group of friends, now more than ever before, Skype brings people together whenever they are apart
AT&T to support HD Voice technology later this year
AT&T has said that it will support the iPhone 5's HD Voice technology sometime later this year. The technology will roll out along with AT&T's switching over to routing voice over LTE. "HD Voice is part of our voice over LTE strategy," AT&T senior VP Kris Rinne said.
T-Mobile, on the other hand, will support the iPhone 5's HD Voice technology right from the start. When the device launches, T-Mobile users will be able to experience the higher quality audio that some have called a noticeable improvement. Sprint is also considering implementing HD Voice technology.
T-Mobile launches its 4G LTE network in 7 US cities
T-Mobile has announced at today's Uncarrier event that its 4G LTE network is now live in seven US cities across the nation. T-Mobile customers in Baltimore, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Jose, and Washington DC will be able to surf at speeds faster than many home DSL connections.
T-Mobile expects to bring its 4G LTE network to 100 million Americans by the middle of this year and to 200 million Americans by the end of 2013. It's currently in last place in the LTE roll out race, though Sprint isn't too far ahead. Verizon and AT&T continue to be the front runners, but T-Mobile is trying to catch up quickly.

T-Mobile have just debuted a new contract-free, unlimited talk and text plan which comes with an included 500MB of tetherable data - the cost? Just $50 per month. The best part of this is that the US telco has effectively gone contract-free, with phone subsidies pretty much gone.
This also means that T-Mobile customers will be paying retail price for a new smartphone, but they'll have the option of spreading the cost of the phone over two years of monthly payments. T-Mobile's new $50 per month plan with payments for a high-end smartphone over two years still manages to compete against contract-based carriers such as AT&T and Verizon.
The new $50 plan includes 500MB of data, but users won't be capped for bursting through their monthly data allowance, but rather slowed down to "2G speeds." If 500MB of data per month isn't enough for you, for just $10 more you can expand that up to 2GB. This is a perfect option for those using lots of data, or for those who are always tethering their smartphone to a notebook or tablet for some Internet access.
