Staff at GCHQ, the government's electronic eavesdropping centre, mislaid
35 laptops and it was not known whether the computers contained top
secret information because of the agency's "haphazard" monitoring
system, it emerged today.
The computer disappearances were revealed in the latest report by the
parliamentary intelligence security committee (ISC), which also
expressed concern about GCHQ's failure to meet the growing threat of
cyber attacks, both state-sponsored and by Islamist terrorists.
Referring to the mislaid laptops, the report described GCHQ's attitude
towards valuable and sensitive assets as "cavalier" and "unacceptable".
A GCHQ spokesperson today said there was no evidence that any of the
material on the laptops had "got into wrong hands", but admitted: "Given
the state of the records, there is no way of confirming that".

Canaries miss out out on Mackail-Smith
Norwich have failed in a bid to sign Peterborough striker Craig Mackail-Smith.The 27-year-old, who has scored 26 goals in all competitions this season, was the subject of interest from Blackpool during the January transfer window and is wanted by several clubs.Norwich, who moved into the second automatic promotion spot behind Championship leaders QPR with a 3-1 home win over Bristol City on Monday night, are the latest club to try to sign Mackail-Smith. However, Peterborough are in no mood to let the forward leave."I have had talks with Norwich City but I have also had discussions with our chairman Darragh MacAnthony and our manager Darren Ferguson and we have rejected the proposal," Posh director of football Barry Fry told the club's official website."There is always a lot of speculation about Craig because he is the leading goalscorer in League One and has an impressive goal-to-game ratio, but Norwich are the sixth different club to make a bid and we have rejected them all after talking it over with the chairman."Craig Mackail-Smith will be in our squad for tonight's (Tuesday`s) game with Sheffield Wednesday, which is a vital game."

NYC Marathon Recap

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Hope you guys are enjoying the frigid temperatures that we are experiencing right now. Take from a girl who was in Florida 3 days ago, this cold is for the birds.
I have wanted to get around to typing up this post for the last 2 weeks, but with all the travelling, it has been put on the back burner. I finally made it, today is the day.
On Sunday, November 2nd I ran the New York City marathon! I had been looking forward to it for about 8 months, since I found out I got in way back in March. The NYC marathon is set up as a lottery, so you put your name in and you find out if you were accepted months later. There are a lot of people who don't get in and try for years and years, so when I managed to…

While I was there I had the opportunity to travel to a small coastal town called Farsund to run a half marathon. The original plan was to run the Rock and Roll half in Oslo, but it was cancelled, so I was happy to find that I had another opportunity much closer to where I was staying in Egersund, Norway.
I have run 3 marathons including Marshall and Chicago (twice! Love that city!) and I am happy to say that I have been accepted into the 2014 New York marathon, and I'm running the Disney marathon…

So You Want To Be A Writer…
It's funny how we can affect people we didn't even know… Thanks, Terry Anne and good luck with your book!
Originally posted on notesonaboardingpass:
I have to admit, being announced as a writer at the recent #FIGT conference was a proud moment. It had long been a dream of mine and my eventual epiphany was inspired by a borrowed book. That book would eventually lead me to a writing retreat in Tuscany, led by Jo Parfitt. At the risk of sounding over-dramatic, it changed my life.
I've always been envious of people who are diligently committed to their writing, as opposed to simply proclaiming their wish to be a writer, as I had done for years. Having lived and travelled for twenty-three years in countries strung across the globe, I have nevertheless written every step of the way. Though up until now, those experiences have languished in my journals, begging to be released. They attest to adventures such as safari by camel in Rajasthan, truffle hunting in the Arabian desert, and trekking in Nepal…

Oh this shiny new computer…
There just isn't nothing cuter.
It knows everything the world ever knew.
And with this great computer
I don't need a writing tutor,
'Cause there ain't a single thing that it can't do.
It can sort and it can spell,
It can punctuate as well.
It can find and file, underline and type.
It can edit and select,
It can copy and correct.

France is always a good idea
I've been following a blog called My French Heaven for quite a while, it's written by a Frenchman named Stéphane. Stéphane lives and runs a Chateau (B&B) in a small town outside Bordeaux. All of his posts are written in both French and English. I can't remember how I came across the blog but what attracted me most, were the photos. Stéphane takes the most beautiful photos of people, scenery and food! Pictures that draw you in, and make you want to get on the next plane to France.
That's why when recently planning a trip with friends, I suggested we fly to Bordeaux, drive out into the French countryside and stay at Stéphane's Chateau. After showing my friends his photos, they were in total agreement. All info about the Chateau and surrounding area can be found on his blog.
Tucked between vineyards and not far from Saint Emilion, the Chateau was the perfect place to stay. It was especially nice to finally meet one of my many blogging buddies (I wish I could meet you all). Stéphane was a friendly and very helpful host.
Although I'm not quite the photographer Stéphane is, here are some photos from our trip…
Chateau St. Jaques Calon
A trip to the Farmers Market in Libourne
The charming city of St-Emilion
A tour and wine tasting at Chateau Cardinal-Villemaurine

Today's member did not lose any impressive amount of weight (I honestly don't think that he could if he tried), but he did reach not only a "fitness goal", but somewhat of a milestone in his young life. Five year old Henrik Muth is September's Member Spotlight because he has learned how to swim thanks to our swim instructors, specifically Carissa.

Looks like it could be Colonial Cream. I see lots of variations in granite called Colonial Cream, but many of the slabs look similar to that one. |
Maybe Kashmir Cream or Kashmir Gold? But stone yards sometimes have different names anyway. It's easier to just go the yards and see what they have in creamy toned granite. Like chicagoans said, there's lots of variation among slabs. |
It looks like Shivakashi granite ~it looks like there is a lot of salmon color in it on my monitor? |

need an "add to wishlist" function
I'm looking for someone to help me add an "add to wishlist" function to a 3dcart shopping site. It's asp-based.
basically, you'd need to grab the catalogID from a button, then pass that to the customer table (or a new table associated with the customer's userid). Then, the information stored there would need to be displayed in the user's account page (or in a separate wishlist page, but I suspect putting it into the existing myaccount page would work best, since the user is logged in when viewing that).
That page would display the item's id and name and link to its detail page (a listing page to which you pass the catalogID).
The user would also need to be able to remove items from the wishlist from their account (or wishlist) page.
The database is access. The cart is 3dcart. My timeline is quick.
Open to discussing fee. Please contact me offline at syncbox AT gmail DOT com or call me at 707.824.2840...

PACK A.D.: Drummer Maya Miller and Guitarist-Vocalist Becky Black Make Up Pack A.D., Named Vancouver's Best New Band of 2007.
By Joe Stumpe, The Wichita Eagle, Kan.
Jul. 4–Pack A.D. is a two-woman band from Canada. But don't go hear them expecting anything like Alanis Morissette or Celine Dion, to name two famous female warblers from up north.
More like the White Stripes meets Howling Wolf meets Janis Joplin.
"We're really loud, for one thing," drummer Maya Miller said. "Usually we end up playing last and everybody's got their drink on. It turns into a party."
The approach got the grunge blues duo named Vancouver's best new band of 2007 by Canadian rock magazine Nerve. They play Saturday at Barleycorn's.
In a phone interview from Cottage Grove, Ore., the second stop on a 35-city tour, Miller said Pack A.D. evolved a little differently from most bands, stripping away members until it was just her and guitarist-vocalist Becky Black.
That cuts down on the inevitable band drama since "you have only one person to discuss things with," Miller said.
And it's freed them up musically. Black and Miller both write songs, usually building them around a guitar or drum riff.
"We tend to come up with a lot of songs really quickly," Miller said. "We abandon a lot of them, too."
Bigger bands often get committed to playing songs long after members are tired of them, just because they've spent so much time learning them, she said.
Favorite song topics include animals, partying ("I Like to Drink") and snow.
"We both really like snow," Miller said. "Not that we get any snow in Vancouver. Just rain."
Another song, called "This Terror," includes the lines: "This terror tastes like coffee/Can I have another coffee?"
The two-person approach and Pack A.D.' s sound invite inevitable comparisons to the White Stripes, although that band is not among the extensive influences listed on their MySpace page. Instead, the list includes a host of old electric blues performers, as well as such cryptic entries as "the American Civil War" and "George Romero and all his Dead movies."
But like the Stripes, Miller seemed to enjoy being a little mysterious about her and Black's background. She did say that both quit their day jobs to tour full time this year.
"I worked in a bookstore and Becky worked in a gas station," Miller said. "Pretty exciting stuff. Becky does art, and I write."
Miller can't quite explain the band's quick rise in Vancouver, other than to cite its chemistry and Black's "killer pipes." A reviewer for Nerve called the latter "the greatest vocal discovery this town's ever known."
This will be the band's second appearance in Kansas, having played the Kathouse Lounge in Manhattan last March.
"We're looking forward to it," Miller said. "We're playing with (opening act) Black Gasoline, and we've heard a lot of good things about them. We're just out there taking it one show at a time."
If you go
What: Grunge blues duo from Canada, performing with opening act Black Gasoline
Where: Barleycorn's, 579 W. Douglas
When: 9 p.m. Saturday
How much: $5 cover

The Naval Academy football team has become a hot postseason ticket, so much so that a handful of bowls — including the Insight — are seeking to reach tie-in agreements with the Midshipmen.
Insight Bowl president John Junker said Tuesday the bowl has had discussions with Navy officials and hopes a deal can be announced by the end of April.
"When you have a military academy with a winning team, it's a wonderful part of college football," Junker said. "With the nation at war, we think it's neat to reward those players who, in a year or two, will be serving all of us. There's a lot of things we like about it.
"The Navy program has been at a distinguished level lately."
Last week, the Midshipmen physically dominated Colorado State en route to a 51-30 victory in the inaugural Poinsettia Bowl in San Diego. It was the second straight bowl win for Navy.
What's more, the program easily went through its allotment of 20,000 tickets. Navy sold 17,000 seats for last year's Emerald Bowl and 25,000 for the 2003 Houston Bowl.
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), a Navy veteran, has spoken with academy officials on the Insight's behalf. The Big Ten and Big 12, who have tie-ins with the bowl beginning next year, also need to be consulted.
"We're still trying to figure out how that would work," Junker said of the conference affiliations. "We think there are a lot of positives (with Navy), but we're not ready to announce anything officially. But I'm hopeful."
Arizona State spent the entire second half against Rutgers on Tuesday without middle linebacker Dale Robinson, the Pac-10 co-defensive player of the year, and defensive end Kyle Caldwell, who left with injuries.
Robinson practiced little heading into the Insight Bowl while recovering physically from the regular season. Caldwell has had knee, quadriceps and shoulder pain this year.
Right tackle Andrew Carnahan re-aggravated the broken foot he suffered
earlier this season, but he remained in the game.
Starting linebacker Robert James did not play at all due to an undisclosed injury. Receiver Terry Richardson, who had been suffering from the flu, missed the Sun Devils' first few offensive possessions, though he did play on special teams.
With the season over, ASU coach Dirk Koetter does not even get time off to watch the bowl season culminate. Off-campus contacts with recruits are permitted from Monday through Jan. 7.
A potentially awkward situation: Koetter visiting a recruit while a school competing with ASU for the player's commitment is on television, playing in a Bowl Championship Series game.
"I hate how the (recruiting) calendar is this year," Koetter said. "I'd like to be on my couch watching games, but if you don't hit it next week, you will go four weeks without seeing your kids.
"During those (bowl) matchups, a lot of guys have to be in at-home visits, including me."
On his third-quarter touchdown pass to Richardson, ASU quarterback Rudy Carpenter broke the school record for passing yardage by a freshman. Ryan Kealy previously held the mark, throwing for 2,137 yards in 1997. . .
The 52-yard field goal by Rutgers' Jeremy Ito in the third quarter is the longest in Insight Bowl history. . .
Taking the final snap to kneel down with the ball on Tuesday was senior Chad Christensen, a Desert Mountain High graduate who came to ASU as a quarterback but ended up playing multiple positions, including tailback, receiver and on special teams.

IATA's CEO talks fuel safety, supply reliability
Tony Tyler, director general and CEO of the International Air Transport Association, talked about fuel safety and other topics with the Aviation Fuel Forum in Berlin.
On average, fuel accounts for a third of an airline's cost structure. The annual bill in 2013 is expected to be $209 billion.
"Safety is our most important priority," Tyler said.
After fuel contamination issues, the International Civil Aviation Organization published a manual for best practices for jet fuel supply.
Tyler also talked about fuel supply reliability.
"Refinery closures in key markets and a lack of timely investments in supply logistics have resulted in longer and more complicated supply chains," he said. "In line with this, we are seeing a corresponding impact on the potential for contamination, while the frequency and length of disruptions appear to be growing."
IATA and airlines have been working with governments to address areas with persistent supply disruption problems. As a result, there is now construction of a new storage tank on the island of St. Maarten by a major fuel supplier, engagement with the Kenyan government to ease restrictions on the uplift of fuel for transport to neighboring Uganda and industry efforts at London Heathrow, Nice, Manchester and Miami.
Tyler said the fuel industry must also become more efficient for the environment. Aviation represents 2 percent of global manmade carbon emissions. The industry has embraced the agenda that includes improving fuel efficiency by 1.5 percent annually until 2020, achieving carbon-neutral growth starting in 2020 and cutting its net emissions in half by 2050 compared to 2005 levels.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Marco!
Facts about Marco
- Breed: Pug/Beagle Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With Black
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Marco's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Marco came to our shelter because of the owners bought him and the wife had an allergic reaction to the dog. He was bought as a Christmas present and was bought only a few days after Christmas. He is a wonderful dog- full of energy. Loves cats, dogs, and is not mean with cats of any sort. Does not chase cats that is. He plays with toys, is leash trained, and is working on potty training. He is not fixed as he is too young, and will need to be fixed after 6 months of age. His adoption fee is $125.00
Other Pets at All Animal Florida Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Marco, a Lakeland Pug/Beagle puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pug/Beagle for sale in Lakeland, or seeking a Pug/Beagle puppy from a breeder in Lakeland.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Lakeland already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Lakeland breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pug/Beagle breeders who help with Pug/Beagle rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Lakeland paves the way for another one to be saved.

Working on developing the five senses with your child may sound like homework, but it's actually something you do every day without even trying. You and your child use your senses every day to decide what to eat, what the weather is like and what kind of games you want to play. If you are already working on sensory development, you might as well take it up a notch and work on developing each sense a little more.
Sight is the easiest sense to stimulate. As long as your child's eyes are open, he's sensing things. Right from birth you can play things like peek-a-boo or "Where's baby?" with a mirror. You'll always get that cute baby smile as you come back into sight. As he gets older, you can look for items around the house or on your walk. Peek-a-boo will transition into hide-and-seek and you can look at things that are farther away. A toddler can watch the wind blow the leaves in the tree or look for airplanes in the sky. Talk about the colors that you see or how things look, compared to how they feel. You can mix two kinds of paint together to see what new colors you can find. This makes the activity more tactile by finger painting.
Talk to your child at any age. You don't need a scripted dialogue. He won't remember if you tell him the grocery list or who you are going to vote for in the next election. As long as you are engaging, he'll learn from you. He learns the sound of your voice right from birth and can tell the difference between you and other voices. You can add plenty of new sounds to his world by pouring water or sitting next to a stream. Give him musical instruments to play. When he is a baby, he'll probably only shake rattles before they end up in his mouth. As he becomes a toddler and 2-year-old, he'll move onto more instruments like drums and recorders. Try recording sounds for him and playing them back. Kids love animal sounds so play barnyard sounds and guess what they are. This works really well after a trip to the petting zoo so the association is fresh.
Touch is a fun sensory to work out. It's easy to be creative about what your child can touch. As an infant, he'll like stroking the cat or dog -- careful, he'll grab a fistful of hair! You can also help him feel the tactile pages of a board book. You'll find nearly limitless types of sensory toys you can buy, including water and sand tables. But these are easily made with a bin of water, sand or rice. Mix it up by using beans or corn starch and water in the bin. Whatever you use, make sure it's non-toxic and your toddler can't choke on it. You'll need to be careful if you have a toddler or 2-year-old that still puts everything in his mouth. Homemade play dough is pretty safe for toddlers that still stuff their mouths with everything they can get their hands on. It's made out of kitchen ingredients and you can store it safely in your fridge so it stays fresh.
Taste is sometimes forgotten in sensory development. If your child doesn't like something, you'll know about it. It will end up on your clothes, in your hair and down your shirt. It seems obvious that he doesn't need this sense further developed. However, you can help him by giving him new food to try and also the vocabulary to describe it. This sense is closely linked to smell so you will be working on both of them at the same time. At first, your infant may only develop his sense of taste by trying pureed peas or peas mixed with carrots, but as he gets older, he'll try all kinds of foods. Don't be afraid to try something a little different, like strong cheese, because you never know what he might like. As he turns into a toddler, his stomach will be more developed and you can branch out even further.
Smell is another sense that is often left off the sensory list. Young children, especially babies, don't have a broad range when it comes to smells. They know what they like, breast milk and their mom's skin, but not much else. Toddlers and 2-year-olds get a stronger sense of smells. They will come running if they smell fresh cookies! But, they are still limited in their sense of "bad" smells. Most toddlers don't mind at all if they smell poopy. They may even try to help you change them regardless of the odor. So, you might not get them to understand that poo smells bad, but you can start giving them the vocabulary. In the meantime, work on favorable smells like flowers, pine trees, campfire smoke and all the different kinds of food you eat. Smell the food first and then see if it tastes the same as how it smells. Walk outside and say "the air is very fresh today." You can also help them identify new smells by putting pungent fragrances on cotton balls and sealing them in clean baby food jars. As he opens each one, he can guess what the smell is. Shampoo, vinegar, cinnamon and vanilla are easy to find and easily recognized.

Whether you have an MBA or a GED, startup accelerators are often the biggest push that startups need to go from idea, or earliest MVP, to actual startup and company. Startup accelerators come in all sizes and shapes from YCombinator, 500 Startups, and Techstars to The Fort, The Brandery, and Seed Hatchery. In our Accelerating in the Fast Lane stories we'll feature an interview with a startup currently going through an accelerator.
Nebraska is filled with startups and entrepreneurs. Warren Buffet hails from Nebraska, as does the Silicon Prairie News and their Big Series of award-winning conferences. On a recent trip to Nebraska, we got to hang out with Eric Moyer the co-founder and CMO of a startup that went into Lincoln, Nebraksa's NMotion accelerator as Fiscal Circles and has since taken on the name, HipPocket.
HipPocket helps connect consumers to loan products in a more efficient and transparent way. Find out how in our interview with Moyer below.
What is the name of your start-up?
The name of our start-up has long been a loaded question. I am however happy to report, Fiscal Circles, Inc. is now doing business as HipPocket.
What problem are you solving?
We provide insight into consumer finance which until now has lacked any form of transparency. Consumers hoping to improve their financial situation have been forced to call around or 'take a chance' on a loan offer that may not be in their best interest through websites like lowermybills.com, quickenloans, etc.
Why now?
Consumer adoption of online banking and more specifically, personal financial management (PFM) sites like Mint.com is trending up. Further, interest rates are poised to increase markedly in the near term. We predict that timing is right for a vast number of consumers who have been on the fence about optimizing their finances will be motivated by a changing rate environment.
Who are your competitors?
The biggest competitor in the PFM space is mint.com, but we've also been diligently researching other providers in the space. We've seen some companies doing limited comparisons of budget or FICO score but none appear to be leveraging market and peer comparison data in a significant manner. We also have a secret sauce that we're hoping you ask us about…
What's your secret sauce?
Our proprietary process for taking users through the comparison process is our secret sauce. We help them build a complete financial picture and provide the clearest possible explanation of where they stand now and an easy-to-understand path to a better future. This process emphasizes simplicity and fairness. Instead of utilizing persistent reminders, info-graphics and a myriad of other tactics to change consumer behavior, we've chosen to concentrate on saving people money on the things they already buy.
By concentrating on making refinancing or finding a new mortgage easy and providing unbiased loan recommendations, we give the consumer a fair shot at getting the best deal.
Where are you/were you based before NMotion?
Prior to NMotion, our team split time among coffee shops, Turbine Flats (a co-working space) and of course, the founder's homes.
Why NMotion?
We applied to NMotion to gain access to resources and best practices in an effort to improve our chances for success. Plus, NMotion is dedicated to developing the start-up community of Lincoln, Nebraska. We recognize that for our venture to succeed, the area needs to be seen as a viable place for new companies to gain a foothold. Brian Ardinger and his staff at NMotion have given participating teams every opportunity to develop and successfully launch compelling products and services.
What's one lesson you've learned since the NMotion session has started.
One lesson we've learned is that the time spent validating assumptions might be worth more than what you're building.
Where can people find out more?
You can find us on Facebook, Twitter and now, YourHipPocket.com.
Stay tuned for more stories from accelerators everywhere else.
Startups from everywhere else attend the huge everywhereelse.co The Startup Conference.

Hopefully i can help..
The engine malfunction warning usually means the ecu has picked up on a fault/problem with the engine and or emissions system - in all such cases with fualts like this - the car most definalty needs to be hooked to a proper and capable diagnostic machine or via the Main ford dealer if prefered who will be able look into the fualt more deeper/qucker to help actually find out exactly where the fault is and what the ecu has stored in regards to fault codes - this will then give a much better idea as to where to investigate further..So if this hasn't been as of yet then this would be the next step to take and take it from there based on the result of that..If its just a glitch so to speak then they can clear the memory - drive the car a few miles and then see if the warning comes back - if it is as mentioned above a glitch then the light won't come back on - if it does then they need to re-scan and see if its the same code - if it is then they need to trace the sensor/wiring/component that causing the problem...
are you just saying take it back to the dealer?
Was the light on before you had taken it in?
And did they carry out any tests on it ie:- plugging it into there diagnostic machine?
What was the results of the test if they did carry out the above?
the light was on before the service but the car was running perfectly with no loss of power or anything unusual happening.
no diagnostics on a halfords intermediate service.
the mechanic noted the warning light and recommended take it back to dealer, but found nothing at fault as far as he could see.
maybe this is a common fault as i have seen that others have the same problem whilst i have been online?
It can be a common fault "but" not necessarily all the same type fualt as you may of seen online - the EML can cover a huge area of possible faults with hundreds of possible fault code definitions - If its definitely displaying engine malfunction - then as above i feel that there is an engine management fault rather than it needing a service so to speak - if that was the case then it would come up with the service indicator which as you'll know to reset is done usually by pressing the brake and throttle together and keep pressed, turn your ignition on and wait approximately 15 seconds roughly until the dash displays that the service reset is complete. Turn the ignition off ..If the Halfords mechanic has definitely checked / and inspected carefully around the engine bay as such and as much as he could "visually" just incase something has become loose or leaking ie: injectors etc..then the only way forward is to have the car diagnosed/scanned next - Taking it to a Ford dealer is one possible option and is usually the prefered method seeing as their scan tool will be that more upto date and be able to get into the fault alot deeper than alot of other aftermarket tools - But it might be worth anyway trying any local reputable garages with the right equipment or even a good mobile diagnostic technician and see if they can actually retrive/scan the system for faults further instead - least then you'll have a better idea or understanding what is actually causing the warning to flag up and what if anything needs investigated further or replaced - they will need to use the same tool to turn the light out or clear the fualt memory...
it seems take it back to the dealer is the only answer.
i dont think that is worth 22 pound to me though as it solves absolutely nothing.
thank you all the same.
i will have the money refunded if you please.
"solves absolutely nothing" i fully disagree with that unfortunalty - once the test has been done then it may most likly solve the issue anyway once we/garage know whats causing it to come on and why.. / in all such cases like this that is the only alternative and only way forward to solve the problem you have or at least get a overall idea as to why you have the problem in the first place and i'm sure you would of noted that to on some of the online sites you visited previously - any garage in the UK would do the above and say the same thing..I'm sorry if this advice hasn't helped but thats what this site is all about - to point you in the right direction without to much added cost..thank you for using justanswer and hope you get your problem solved.

Morgan Spurlock to Direct 3D One Direction Concert Movie; Also, World Has Gone Totally Mad
In Development By Kate Erbland on November 13, 2012 | Be the First To CommentThe news flicks by without raising any bells – of course Sony is making a concert film to showcase the world's (current) biggest boy band, One Direction. Of course this film will be in 3D and of course it will open on a holiday weekend (on August 30, 2013, just in time for Labor Day, as it were). And of course this film will be directed by Morgan Spurlock. Wait, what? Yet, as insane as this news might be at first blush (and, we'll admit, we stared at its announcing press release slack-jawed for at least ten minutes), it's hard to deny that Spurlock's Super-Size Me and Where in the World is Osama bin Laden? days are long over. Spurlock's work has rarely been close to truly "hard-hitting" (who among us has not eaten McDonald's for weeks at a time? let you cast the first stone), but his films have steadily been declining in terms of seriousness and and wide-ranging import for quite some time, shrinking his audience to nothing short of niche levels (Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope didn't even break the bank for either Comic-Con or Star Wars fans). Why not direct something guaranteed to bring out screaming, poster-shaking teenagers eager to spend their almighty dollars? In short, why not direct a One Direction 3D concert film?

Any PC enthusiast is quite familiar with the name PC Power & Cooling. Ever since the company's inception in 1985, the name has been synonymous with quiet computing and shortly thereafter high-quality power supplies. Since then, the company has been a leader in the PSU industry producing many firsts such as the first redundant power system, first NVIDIA certified SLI PSU, 1000W PSU, and first power supply to ship with its own certified test report. They are clearly a company dedicated to providing the best product available to their customers.
In early 2007, OCZ announced that they were purchasing PC Power & Cooling. Many feared what was to come of PC Power & Cooling and were relieved to find that OCZ left the company mostly intact, turning the PC Power & Cooling brand into OCZ's premium line of power supplies. The unit that we are looking at today is a testament that OCZ has done just that. The PC Power & Cooling Silencer 760 is the latest entry in the Silencer line of power supplies available between 500W and 910W.
The PC Power & Cooling Silencer 760 is meant to deliver high quality power and with sufficient power output to drive the latest graphic cards on the market. PC Power & Cooling packs the Silencer 760 with features, connections, and a great warranty. The Silencer power supplies have always been known for their excellent performance and reliability, so read on as we put the PPCS760 through our testing methodology and find out if this new PSU is worthy of the Silencer title.
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
The PPCS760 utilizes a single 12V rail that is rated for 62A of continuous power at full load. This should provide enough power for any system with a single GPU and will support almost any configuration of dual-GPU's out there. For power hungry systems with lots of drives and high end motherboard/CPU configurations, the PPCS760 also features heavy 3.3V and 5V rails that provide 24A and 30A respectively. Total continuous power of the Silencer 760W is 760W. PC Power & Cooling also lists the Silencer 760W as being capable to output 835W at its peak.
As we take a look at the feature summary we can see that PC Power & Cooling has a lot going on with the Silencer 760W. All the protections that you would expect from a top tier manufacturer are there with the exception of modular cabling. For those that are familiar with PC Power & Cooling, you probably already know that they don't offer any power supplies with modular connections. They don't believe that it is a good idea to use modular connections as it increases resistance and lowers the available output of the power supply. For those interested in the full explanation, you can read the full interview between PC Power & Cooling's President Doug Dodson and Computer Power User.
Availability for the PC Power & Cooling 760W power supply is great. It can be found at many different online stores and retails for $144.99. A quick search will yield numerous places that have the PSU below MSRP and Newegg lists it for $129.99. PC Power & Cooling power supplies always come with great warranties and the Silencer 760W is no exception. Should you ever need to return the unit because it has stopped functioning, PC Power & Cooling backs it with an impressive 7-year warranty.

Toyota Camry Fuse and Electrical Questions
kiawah Posts: 3,666The circuit basically is comprised of a drivers door switch which handles all four windows, a switch on the other three doors that works in parrallel to the drivers swich, wire in the door jamb that flexs back and forth, and a motor/regulator in each door.
Open up a door, check your voltages, figure out whether the problem is the motor (getting the voltage but not moving)....or is some problem upstream (not getting the voltage to the motor), and work your way back to the drivers switch. -
rego Posts: 3Hi,
I am trying to do a DIY wiring in my Camry 03. I have run the wires and connected one wire to the fusebox, to one of the fuses with add-a-circuit. I need to connect the other wire to an earth.
I tried looking inside or around the fusebox under the steering, but could not locate any nut that I can tie the earth wire terminal to. Can someone suggest if there is a nut or screw around the fusebox that I can use?
Thanks. -
rego Posts: 3Thanks for the quick response. I will try looking there. Do you know if the fasteners are inches or metric? This might seem dumb, but this is my first DIY in the 4+ years of owning the Camry.

jsandstrom Posts: 2I have a 1998 Camry and seem to have blown the fuse for the secondary cigarette lighter. The main one still works fine, but I have no idea which fuse controls the secondary power outlet. can you help? I'm hoping to use it to keep my GPS unit powered. I'm one of those people who doesn't know much about cars, but should.
Can anyone help?

aojoca1 Posts: 1I need help identifying the fuse for the backup light on the fuse box. When my car is in drive D, the R lights up as well on the board. Both backup lights fail to light up when I put the car in reverse. I have changed the two backup bulbs, still no luck.
will someone kindly send me a schematic of the fusebox? thanks -

210delray Posts: 4,722If you have the owner's manual, it will tell you (toward the back). Otherwise, you'll have to remove the trim inside the trunk to access the bulbs. There should be a kind of "trap door" for the outer bulbs (the ones not mounted on the trunk). Remove the door or trim, then twist the appropriate bulb socket one quarter turn counterclockwise, then pull straight out.
Then to remove the bulb itself, either twist slightly counterclockwise while pressing inward on the bulb, then pull straight out OR just pull straight out (I'm not sure what kind of socket the '96 model uses). Installation is the reverse. Try not to touch the new bulb with your bare hands -- use a cloth or tissue. -
slynn701 Posts: 103 Camry...While rewinding tape, suddenly system "froze". word "tape" shows on screen. No buttons work, not even on/off switch. System remains "on" even with engine turned off, dial remains lit showing "tape".
Went to dealer who had no time to diagnose but removed and replaced SAME fuse and everything worked normally once again.
Later tonight, I was fast forwarding and exact same thing has happened. I have not removed fuse.
Any ideas? Is it electrical? Is it the unit? Should I take it to the dealer? Should I take it to a radio shop?
Appreciate any advice, Thanks -
krruss Posts: 1The right rear electric window went out on my 2006 Camry CE. I was going to try the obvious things like checking the fuse. Unfortunately, I can't make sense out of what the owners manual indicates for fuses. To make sure I had the right fuse, I pulled the fuse that said it was for the window on the left door. With the fuse out, that window still operates. I realize this is unrelated to my original problem, but it is hard to troubleshoot when you can't rely on the information you have. Anybody have a vowel I can buy?

Mr_Shiftright CaliforniaPosts: 46,213Must be the switch in the door/door jamb. If you can pry it out you can pull off the two wires and touch them together and see if the lights then work. That would by-pass the switch.
How did you test the fuse and the bulb? Visually is not good enough. You should use an ohm meter to test for continuity through the fuse or through the bulb.MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
rviles Posts: 1I have read all the previous posts regarding this particular problem. However, I believe mine is a bit more unique. I have replaced the fuse, and as soon as I turn the ignition switch to accessory, or on, I can watch the pink 30A fuse glow red, and then fail. Takes about 2 seconds. Further research, shows approx 12 volts on the 3 volt fuse when power is applied. I feel there is a short in the system, or a window that is stuck in the up position, but not sure how to begin troubleshooting the issue without taking off all the door panels and disconnecting the window motors on all 4 doors.
Any ideas? :sick: -
kiawah Posts: 3,666Which 30Amp fuse are you blowing, AM2?
If so, then AM2 feeds the keyswitch, and then feeds 2 downstream fused circuits:
- a 5 amp fuse for ignition coils
- a 5 amp fuse for starting circuit, feeds first a clutch switch, then starter relay, then starter primary.
If this AM2 fuse is blowing immediately, try pulling the two downstream 5 amp fuses (they are in the circuit AFTER the ignition switch). If it still immediately blows (which undoubtedly it will since the fuses downstream are only 5 amp each and would have blown), your ignition key switch is probably bad. -
ralphwiggum1 Posts: 31i recently replaced my battery, but my car still won't start. i'm sure it was a battery issue because the car started when my last battery was jumped. i think the factory alarm/ignition kill is preventing the car from starting--the horn sounds when i open the door, the alarm light is on, and i hear the alarm clicking. i don't have the remote and i haven't figured out how to bypass the alarm. would taking the alarm fuse out bypass the system? if so, where is the fuse for the alarm? any ideas would be appreciated.
rsd61 Posts: 1I need too require help identifying fuses however for the Rear Driving/Running Lights and Interrior Dome & Dash Lights Only. All forward lights, Backup and Rear Directionals all work but NOT the Rear Driving/Running nor Dash & Dome Lights.
She has no Owners Manual for mt to look at. Does anyone know where to find a wiring schematic of the lights / fusebox? I have been told that there is a "Modular" that could be the issue. Where / what - I don't know. All the fuses look good.
Please post reply here and email me directly @ firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll post findings/results here for all.
Thanks Again :confuse: firstname.lastname@example.com -
kiawah Posts: 3,666- The dome light is fused with a 7.5A fuse called 'dome', which is up in the engine compartment junction block#2, on the inside of the left front wheel well. The dome fuse is in the lower left quadrant of the block.
- The rear taillight problem could be either the taillight relay, or the 10A fuse called 'tail'. The fuse is on one side of the junction block by your left knee behind the ashtray, the relay is on the backside of that block. There is a row of three relays going across the middle of the block, and the tail relay is the one on the far right while looking at the relays. Can you verify that your license plate light is also not working...thanks
Good luck. -
salsaqueen Posts: 9Hello! Both turning signals and the emergency lights quit working on my 01 Camry. We checked the fuses and bulbs and both are good. I was told I need to replace the relay flasher. Can anyone tell me where that is located? And is it complicated to replace?
Thanks! Any advise you can offer is greatly appreciated.

I really wanted to like it, people. I really did. Cover girl makes really good lipsticks, but this one just doesn't do it for me for one reason and one reason only.
the stinkin frosty finish. Like I don't give a flying flip who you are, frosty lip shades don't look good. They accentuate wrinkles and dry patches on the lips, and they just look unnatural and weird. THIS LIPSTICK CONTAINS SO MUCH FROST YOUR LIPS MIGHT AS WELL BE A CAKE. DID THAT METAPHOR EVEN MAKE SENSE I DON'T EVEN KNOW I'M JUST MAD.
Can we just banish frosty lipsticks. For the love of all things good. Please?
Definitely do not recommend.
More reviews by shannonrenee94
I love this lipstick. It glides on smoothly. This shade is really nice and it goes well with many skin colors. It's quite bright. Anyways, I recommend it, I love their lip perfection lipsticks.
Probably My least favorite of all of the Lip Perfection Line. I Was Able To Make This Look Work For Me Only By Toning Down The Frost With A Nude Liner. I Wanted To Love This Lipstick So Badly. But Unfortunately I Couldn't; It Was A Huge Let Down Not To Have The Color Presented At The Bottom Of The Tube.
I LOVE this color! It is the only one I like so far from the new Lip Perfection line.
Like others, I thought the color was too light; however, when you mix it with your favorite lip liner, it is gorgeous! I use it with MAC Soar lip liner and I absolutely love it! It also looks fabulous with MAC Whirl. It would also mix nicely with a nude lip liner or even a coral lip liner for a multitude of looks.......all from one lipstick ~ WOW! BTW ~ Feline is pretty also. It is a vivid pink.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Frost city! I like the formula and the color would be nice, but it is sooooo frosty. Makes me look like a 1980's porn star. So sad, because the pink is pretty and without all of that silver shimmer, it could be a great buy.
I am a BzzAgent and received this to review. I have also tried Lip Perfection in "Spellbound" and "Heavenly" which are both lovely shades, but "Sweetheart" is just awful in my opinion. Frost, frost, and more frost. However, if that's what you like, this is otherwise a good lipstick. It has a creamy, moisturizing formula, is long-lasting. Underneath all that frost is a nice, natural-looking pink shade.

I have yet to play either and am curious as to which is considered better.
Your opinions please :)
This topic is locked from further discussion.
For me personally, I prefer Amalur. It's more fun to play and watch. For me. My brother has played both and I honestly don't think he has a preference. They both do certain things very well.
Kingdoms of Amalur for the sole fact that it doesn't get repetitive gameplay wise. Every other aspect though I'd say Skyrim is better.
I only have the Amalur demo to compare Skyrim to, so it's not really fair...but I can't see myself racking up the 105 hours I've put on Skyrim.
Its repetitive. I liked Amalur more cuz it just feels more like a fantasy game. Skyrim is great though.Kingdoms of Amalur for the sole fact that it doesn't get repetitive gameplay wise. Every other aspect though I'd say Skyrim is better.
Skyrim--freedom/choice/exploration/unfocused/poor combat
KOA--story driven/motivated/fun combat/limited exploration/limited freedom
Depends on what you want if you are thinking of buying one or both of them.
Me, I prefer Skyrim.
Just get both. You probably will in the end.
I think Amulur is the better game, but I am far more addicted to Skycrack. I really can't explain why. Subliminal messages, maybe?
I've been enjoying KoA more then Skyrim. The combat is very refreshing and I like the colorful, fantasy feel to the world. Though I have Skyrim for my PC and I'm sure once more fun mods come out, I may be back into Skyrim once again. For now though, KoA is just more fun for myself.
KoA has better combat but the game suffers from some bad repetition. Skyrim is just bigger, more immersive, and far more varied. Skyrim is the better game.
Kingdoms of Amalur is actually playable on PS3, so KOA.
I prefer Skyrim, but that's because I haven't really played Kingdoms yet.
I've heard the combat in Kingdoms is great. The combat in Skryim, for the most part, is pretty bad.
Lol true, I have KoA, but might pick up Skyrim after I've completed KoA, like this good sir has said, just get both games.Just get both. You probably will in the end.
I think Amulur is the better game, but I am far more addicted to Skycrack. I really can't explain why. Subliminal messages, maybe?
Both are worth owning and compliment each other. When you get tired of one, you'll want to play the other.
Skyrim pros:
Massive open world to explore
No 2 playtrhoughs will be the same
Instresting NPC's and a few memorable ones
Different ways and options to play out quests amd interact with NPC's
Random cool s*** will happen like finding out you have a contract on you for some book you stole for someone's house 10 hours ago.
Watching enemies like giants, dragons and necromancers fight each other
Skyrim cons:
Gets repetitive after 20 hours in
Easily become over encumbered with pointless fetch quests
No way to reset perk points. You will probably spend 40 hours your 1st play, realizing your character sucks and will have to start all over so don't overwrite your 1st save. Visit www.skyrimcalculator.com and plan your character
Clunky combat
Companion AI gets annoying and can become a chore dealing with them. They're useful when you need extra hands to carry loot from dungeons but they get in your way and will senselessly walk over traps in dungeons if you don't talk to them and tell them to wait in a certain spot.
Amalur pros:
Combat kicks ass
You don't have to wait until level 30 to do cool s***
You can reset your XP points by visiting a Fateweaver and change your character build on the fly
Side quests will keep you busy and make forget there is a main quest line to complete.
Vivid, colorful world
Amalur cons:
Dull and skippable dialog from mostly unintresting NPC's except for the Fae
Story starts out intersting but quickly dwindles downhill
Even on the hardest difficulty, you'll only die a handful of times
Camera angles could be better
