Cabinets in scrambling for the right UCL
One trip to the lighting store and I realize that I should have included them in my plans! Cabs are in and romex pulled to each under cab. Any thoughts appreciated on whether to consider a low voltage system (he has WAC brand ribbon LED system) or utilize the voltage already pulled to the cabs. Any brand reccos appreciated! (antique white cabs and medura gold granite with reddish hue) Thanks and regards.
Use the direct wire. The following thread has more info.
Here is a link that might be useful: Led Ucl continuation
I picked up an 11" powercore profile this AM to try out. If we are happy w/ em we will go for it. I cant find the answer to this question.. when i get to a corner where 2 cabinets meet, should i go to the corner with one fixture and place the adjacent one near it (making a T) or should I place them with their corners meeting making a 90 degree angle? Thanks.. jp
Thanks all and esp you DT.. Just placed the order for these with Platt electrical in Oregon. Good prices and I will let you know re how they arrive. Here in nyc, most lighting stores i shopped stocked WAC. Looked ok but bulky compared to the phillips profile. Happy Holidays and thanks for the help!!

I got it back a week last Saturday,after so many lies eg telling me it had been on the ramps on the Tuesday then come Thursday it hadn't been on the ramps and was yet to be looked at constantly ringing the afters ales team for two whole afternoons to them not even picking up the phone speaking to fowlers (about 8 different people all promising me a call back) but that never happened in the end I demanded to speak to the manager and surprisingly my car was delivered back two days later.they were soon on the phone telling me my account was in arrears it's common sense if I have no car I have no income and if I have no car due to them not fixing it why would they even expect me to pay.

I currently have a astra from them which I bought in sept 2014 since day one I've had endless problems. First being that one of the rear doors will not open at all, and still doesn't to this day. Secondly the car was sold to me with no v5 document meaning I was unable to tax the car so it was parked up from end of sept till middle of november . after constant emails etc the finally resolved the v5 issue and they taxed the car somehow without the v5. I finally received from dvla in Jan 15. However I'm now in arrears of £106 yes £106. I have been told that the car is not being repossessed .they have not once sent me a letter to confirm arrears or even issued a default notice. However over the phone they state they had on the 13th Jan 15. But have no proof of this. So even the I'm still paying my weekly payments the car is gonna be taken at some point. I keep being promised calls back from them but no one ever does. If the take it back I'm gonna try claim all my monies back and £500 deposit. On the grounds they sold me car unfit for purpose plus they ain't served me right paperwork to repossess car back.

Shocking after sales team are a total nightmare very rude and just hang up phone on me just can't believe they can treat people like this and get away with it.

I am still getting continuous faults with my car, my clutch went a 2 weeks ago, now my gearbox has gone. The garage have told me the input shaft has bent (which is near impossible unless the car had been in a serious accident) wondering if these cars are Cat C write offs and fowlers just repair and send out???
I will let everyone know that this company are dodgy and to NEVER EVER use them. Fowlers have had enough of my mind and the new manager does not even respond to emails.. what a joke.

Hi, i had the same issue - brought the car and after 8 days the car broke down on the M25 as it had been over-heating and the head gasket blew. They took my car for 2 WHOLE WEEKS, only to send it back without fixing the orignial problem - the radiator which had a HUGE crack in it. I then got them to fix the radiator.. it came back and my heating was working again (only to stop a week later), turns out they had sent the car back without doing ANY of the original work they had said they'd do - i STILL had a huge crack in the radiator.

Hi, first of all I would like to apologise for the time you were left waiting. This isn't something that happens all of the time, so please accept my apologies on that one. If you could send me an e-mail (I will have e-mailed this comment to you personally as well Sir) I can arrange to have a truck sent out to collect your car at the earliest convenience and ensure you are provided with a courtesy car while that is being repaired. I look forward to hearing from you.

Now i signed agreement you dont want to know and you wonder why i sent a messege on fowlers site. You hang up my calls and soon as we do speak to ya you say you rong back and you simply dont bother. 20 times ive phoned in 1 week and got no where. I'm gatthering all evidence and im handing my self into the police station as you grassed me up. Ive screen shot everything and seeing what i can do about it and going to watchdog aswell. You are gambling peoples lives just for your benefit. You clearly put a bent mot on my car also by reading comments that you done it to other people. Its illeagal to pass a car with air bag lights on, ABs warning light. One costomer found out you cut brake sensors off. You are very dangerous and wish i done research b4 buying from you. I make sure you sieze trading but i suppose you will just trade again under different name. Also i going to put car in for mot to make sure you aint done anything dangerous to my car ie cutting brake sensors etc. How do you sleep at night.

First of all I am sorry to hear about the problems you have experienced and have looked into the matter for you as a matter of urgency. From what I can see on my system here you picked the car up on the 20th August 2014 from our Hemel Hempstead branch and on the 15th you called up to report glo plugs and the fact it was struggling to get into 1st and 2nd gear. We advised you to get a quote. On the 16th September we had a quote off Dan Cuff motor engineers to replace glo plugs control unit and clutch kit. On the 18th September, this quote was authorised, the work was done, invoice complete and cheque sent.
If that is the case with service received from aftersales, I can only apologise and I will look into this to make sure it doesn't happen again to both yourself or any other future customers. Mick Rawlingson is a salesman and in a different office, so in his defence an aftersales issue is not his job. He would have simply passed on a message.
Hopefully all of your issues are now sorted but if there is anything I can help you with then please e-mail me.
Thank you

First of all I am sorry to hear about the problems you have experienced and have looked into the matter for you as a matter of urgency. From what I can see on my system here, your car was ready for you on 31/07/2014 and you asked The Car Finance Company to re-negotiate the price of the vehicle stating the contract was void due to the faults coming so close to the purchase date. As a dealership we have an opportunity to fix matters and rectify any issues within a reasonable amount of time. After fixing all issues and problems, I can see that you rejected the vehicle and exercised your right to cancel the finance within the 14 day cooling off period instead. I have spoken to the Car Finance Company, who have confirmed that the deal has been unwound/cancelled and the letter sent to yourself was an error on their part. The vehicle, now fully repaired, has since been re-financed to another one of our customers without any mechanical issues reported. Finally, if you do wish to take out finance with us again then we would happily re-finance yourself.
Thank you.

In response to your post, only some agreements are Bills of Sale. 75% of sales are Hire Purchase Agreements. Bills of Sale, however, DO become your car but only once the last payment has been made.
Only a few clients get offered this type of agreement when other sub-prime finance lenders have said no to funding them initially.
We have NEVER retained an interested in any car of a customer who has settled their agreement.
If there is anything else you need to know I would be happy to help.

First of all I am sorry to hear about the problems you have experienced and have looked into the matter for you as a matter of urgency. From what I can see on my system here, you took the first vehicle, a Vauxhall Corsa from ourselves on the 5th November 2013. On the 11th November 2013, we agreed to change the vehicle for you, a Vauxhall Astra which you drove off site on the 13th November 2013. You then rang us up 5 months later on the 18/04 and reported your car wouldn't start so we advised you to take that into a local garage and get a quote. 4 days later on the 22nd April 2014 we received a quote from AMS Tuning to supply and fit an alternator which we authorised the same day. On the 24th April 2014 we received the invoice and confirmation the work had been carried out.
On 28th April 2014 you called us to report the car was struggling to start again. We again advised you to get a quote. A month later on the 29th May 2014 we received a quote from a different garage, Wilson + Co who advised an ECU change – which again we authorised. We received the invoice and confirmation of work done on 3rd June 2014. On the 19th June 2014 we received a quote to repair an Instrument Cluster, which we refused as you were outside your warranty.
It starts to become an issue when you changed the garage you originally nominated to fix the original start issue when you start having the same problem again. They have a duty of care to the work they have done on your behalf.
We currently do not have a trading standards or a financial ombudsman complaint for you or your car on our systems. Could you contact me by a matter of urgency if there is something that you are currently not happy with.
We have no call logs, paperwork or any quotes from yourself or any garages for £700 for Pistons behind the dashboard or a service at a cost of £150. If, like you say, you have proof of these that you have paid for, dated within your warranty, please send them to us and we will look into reimbursing the cost for you.
Thank you.

Financial ombudsman do not deal with fowlers there going threw the finance company .. As a matter of fact it should all be on your system as I spoke to a member of fowlers finance after sales . And even after wilson and co sent emails and emails you still refused to pay . the car is faulty and not fit for purchase when bought its was April I sent emails (I have the emails saved ) a financial ombudsman investigator if now dealing with this for me . If you contact the car finance company you will see This . The corsa was faulty I asked to change which they really didn't want to do. I was lied to by the staff at fowlers as they said I had 3 month warranty but then signing my paperwork I'm told by someone else it's 6 months . I was ringing every day to deal with the problem I have all the logs and financial oblisman have all the details . If I didn't have a case they wouldn't of taken my case on.

This is it the replacement you made us have is now being taken back by First Response Finance who we were passed onto by Fowlers to get car finance for it, and who Fowlers would not pay back the money to for the first car so we had to have another one, even though the first was taken back to Fowler Bristol. We still have to pay the balance on this 2nd car. What a joke, no car and still having to pay the balance for it once it is given to some other poor person. Never get a car from Fowlers.

I was looking for credit for ages, I got declined by my bank, I put my details into Fowlers they came back to me the same day, and got an approval within 1 hours! I picked a car, which was sold but they had another 2 or 3 Astra's to choose from. I came and signed and drove away. No issues with car as other reviews sent, took out their extra warranty so i knew I would be covered no matter what. Can't fault their service. … Read Full Review

First of all I am sorry to hear about the problems you have experienced and have looked into the matter for you as a matter of urgency. From what I can see on my system here, you called us on the 28th June 2014 informing us that the battery needed to be replaced and you were advised to get a quote. You bought the battery yourself, sent us the receipt and we refunded your account the same day.
On the 9th July 2014 you called us informing us that the indicator was not working and the engine management light was on. We advised you to get a quote for this, and one was never received from yourself.
On the 23rd July 2014, you called us with headlight issues. You got a quote for this which was authorised by ourselves.
On the 12th August 2014, you called us with steering issues, headlight issues, enginge management light and indicators not working, all issues that could have been repaired by now for you had you gotten us a quote.
After this, we have made numerous attempts to contact you to resolve this issue and fix your vehicle. We have done everything in our power to resolve this issue for you, but you have not co-operated with us.
The finance company repossessed the vehicle on 26th August 2014 as you did not make a payment, and the turnaround for repairs was very swift, ensuring you were not off the road for an extensive period of time.
You informed the finance company that the car did not drive when they called you. We have now seen the report from the repossession company which states the car was in good order when it was collected and taken to a compound.
There is no current trading standards or ombudsman service complaint outstanding.
Thank you.

After purchasing a car from fowlers in May it developed engine problems to the point we had to stop using it 32 days later. Not what you expect from a vauxhall astra 07 plate with only 38000 mile on clock. I contacted fowlers straight away to which it took them 14 days to agree for it to be taken to a garage recommended by them for a diagnostics. Garage find big faults and £1000 of work that needs to be done. Fowlers took a further 7 days tnot to agree for work to be carried out but to offer… Read Full Review

I had this problem. I reported them to both Trading Standards and the Financial Ombudsman. I paid £150 to begin court action against them too. After months of being totally ignored they agreed to take the car back.....rescind my finance and reimburse my £500 deposit. I got no compensation from them despite their promises but at least now I've cut all ties with them. I wish you good luck with your action x

Wyoming wins Mountain West title over San Diego State
in Sports
Wyoming tops San Diego State to win its first Mountain West basketball title on Saturday afternoon. The Cowboys were led by Larry Nance, Jr. who had 14 points, with 12 in the first half. San Diego State had to play catch up after trailing 17-5 but they were able to comeback to make this a game.
The game came down to a San Diego State taking an ill-advised three-point shot by Aqell Quinn with seven seconds left, and it missed giving Wyoming their first ever Mountain West basketball title.
Tournament MVP was Josh Adams of Wyoming and he hit a clutch three to put Wyoming up by two points late in the game.

Hospedar Miguel e seus amigos foi tranquilo . Eles deixaram a casa ótima . Recomendo!
Miguel is ALWAYS welcome to come to stay in our home no matter where we reside. He is a gem as an AirBnB house guest -- a kind, polite, and professional young man with a heart of gold and a warm smile. We give him our highest recommendation absolutely.
Miguel is a delightful house guest! We were so pleased to be able to welcome him to our home in Charleston. When he let go of his apartment lease in preparation for a move, we were so glad he wrote us to inquire if he could spend extra time with us when his company asked him to stay on past his expected date of leave. Not only was he relaxed, courteous, and professional at all times -- he made sure we were kept apprised of his plans so we knew exactly when he would be coming and going. As such -- for a long-stay guest, he made our lives incredibly easy! Our only regret was not being able to spend much time with him socially -- as we really think he was a fun person. As such, we hope he and his girlfriend will consider staying with us again in the future if he ever gets an opportunity to bring her down from up north for a vacation. We are happy to give our highest recommendation to the AirBNB community for him at any time, absolutely.

Netflix is the primary choice for subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) subscribers, but more consumers are trying alternatives.
PORT WASHINGTON, NEW YORK, June 4, 2013 – According to The NPD Group, a global information company, growth in watching television programming is driving subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) viewership, and Netflix continues to clearly dominate the category. According to NPD's VideoWatch VOD report, in the first quarter (Q1) of 2013 the number of viewers watching television shows using SVOD services increased 34 percent, compared to the same quarter year-ago. NPD's VideoWatch Digital tracking shows Netflix dominating the sector, with a 90 percent share of video-streaming units during Q1 2013, which was 4 percentage points lower than last year.
In the TV category alone, which accounts for 80 percent of streams, Netflix holds an 89 percent share. HuluPlus showed healthy growth in 2013, with 10 percent of TV streams in Q1, while Amazon Prime accounts for just 2 percent of the overall TV units streamed.
Source: The NPD Group, Inc. VideoWatch Digital
"There's no doubt that Netflix is driving the growth in SVOD, particularly with increased attention to television programming," said Russ Crupnick, senior vice president of industry analysis at NPD. "We are also seeing good gains in the streaming numbers from Hulu Plus and Amazon Prime, and while neither pose an immediate threat to Netflix it is interesting to see which services later adopters will try."
In Q1 2012, 76 percent of SVOD subscribers streamed only from Netflix. In Q1 2013 that figure fell to 67 percent, while 10 percent of SVOD streamers used both Netflix and Amazon Prime, and 8 percent used both Netflix and Hulu.
"Since its launch, Netflix Watch Instantly has enjoyed a virtual monopoly on the SVOD market, and the company still has a quite comfortable market-share lead," Crupnick said. "While Hulu Plus and Amazon both still have a long way to go before they come close to catching Netflix, we are beginning to see increasing trial of these services, even among some Netflix users."
Data note: Information in this press release was derived from NPD's "VideoWatch VOD" report and the "VideoWatch Digital," consumer tracker, which is based on completed surveys from 46,403 SVOD subscribers. Data was weighted to represent U.S. population of Internet users (age 13 and older).

Seraphim angels, crazed by divine sovereignty, make their mark with other outsiders such as the Jackal Warrior Anubisian, and the Kami—Spirit Beings of majestic natural power; the Kami of the Sacred Gate and Kami of the Temperate Woods. The fey known as selkies, and a new monstrous race of merfolk, the Octimerrae, make the waters dangerous to travel. The Sedim, intelligent magical beasts capable of extraplanar travel, round up the roster—however, new equipment such as the harpoon and khopesh are included, as well as deity information for Anubis (Pharaonic Pantheon).
Like our other digital documents, there is a full-color and print-friendly version of the material, and there is also a PDF portfolio of Feedback Forms, and examples of each of them filled out by our helpful friends, Joe and Mary.

OnAir USB HDTV-GT
Posted by: Brann Mitchell on: 02/24/2008 03:00 PM [ 0 comment(s) ]
OnAir Solution's USB HDTV-GT is a moderately priced, but full-featured HDTV adapter for your PC. It doesn't have the couch potato appeal that a real TV has, but this probably works better than your TV. With the GT you'll be able to record or pause your shows at up to 1080i resolutions, pulling from cable (QAM, unencrypted) or over the air. It will even do analog, while it lasts. Best reception of OTA signals does take a little fiddling with the antenna, but just a nudge can make all the difference. Highly recommended. Read article

Cancer deaths on the decline
By Jessica Bloustein
Albany, NY – The American Cancer Society says the number of cancer deaths in the United States is showing a history-making decline for the first time in 70 years. The organization predicts 565,000 cancer deaths in the country this year--a number anti-smoking and cancer prevention awareness campaigns are helping to lower. In New York's Capital Region those campaigns are going strong, with signs of getting stronger.
WAMC's Capital District Bureau Chief Jessica Bloustein reports.

New York made sweeping changes this week to the way prisons use solitary confinement.

We all know love matters, but today, positive emotions expert Barbara Fredrickson joins Faith to show us just how much. Even more than happiness and optimism, love holds the key to improving our mental and physical health as well as lengthening our lives. Using research from her own lab, Fredrickson redefines love not as a stable behemoth, but as micro-moments of connection between people—even strangers. She demonstrates that our capacity for experiencing love can be measured and strengthened in ways that improve our health and longevity. Finally, she introduces us to informal and formal practices to unlock love in our lives, generate compassion, and even self-soothe.

Alonso: Ferrari needs perfect weekend
|By Jonathan Noble and Pablo Elizalde
|Friday, July 23rd 2010, 14:54 GMT
Fernando Alonso says he is hoping for a perfect German Grand Prix weekend to bounce back from the disappointment of the previous two races.
"The target is to finally have a perfect weekend," said Alonso, who has scored just four points in Valencia and Silverstone, after practice.
"We have done some good Fridays before, but we need to do a perfect Saturday and a perfect Sunday.
"If it is behind the Red Bull and we are not quick enough to challenge them then okay, but if we can be in front of them then even better," added the Spaniard, who finished on top of the times in Friday's second practice session.
Despite his quickest time, and despite Red Bull rivals saying Ferrari is looking very strong, Alonso downplayed his performance.
"Friday is not very representative of the times, and perhaps this Friday was even more strange because of the track conditions, which changed constantly," he told Spanish reporters.
"But we tested everything we wanted to test. Now we have to analyse all the data we have, but it was a positive Friday.
"But we won't know how competitive we are until tomorrow and the grid will not have changed radically from Silverstone to here and so McLaren, Red Bull and us will be up there."
Alonso is currently 47 points behind championship leader Lewis Hamilton, and the Spaniard says the main goal right now is to finish ahead of the Briton.
"You have to try to finish ahead of the leader so the gap doesn't increase," he said. "Right now it's a McLaren so we have to try to finish ahead of them to be less than 47 points away in the next race.
"If in the next race it's a Red Bull, then we'll have to try to finish ahead of that Red Bull and so on.
"Especially we need to have a better second half of the season, with more podiums."

Scioscia not worried about offense
Angels have faltered with runners in scoring position, but manager remains patient
ANAHEIM -- It's in there somewhere, they insist.
Buried in this Los Angeles Angels lineup is the heart of a lion, they think. So, why is it beating as faintly as a mouse's right now?
Maybe it's the cycles of a season, just a short stretch of games signifying little. Maybe some guys had aberrant seasons in 2009 and they're bound to fall back to earth this year. Maybe it's somewhere in between.
The next course of action, apparently, is to do nothing. At least that was manager Mike Scioscia's feeling after watching another listless game from his team against a pitcher, Kevin Slowey, who certainly doesn't intimidate.
The Angels were 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position Thursday in a 10-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins. That, piled on top of a 2-for-7 night with RISP Wednesday and a 1-for-7 outing Tuesday, makes for a grand total of 3-for-23 (.130) in the last three games of the series.
Solution: Just sit back and wait?
Scioscia's only tinkering with his lineup has been his choice of catcher and third baseman. Mike Napoli and Maicer Izturis each have started one game. Otherwise, it has been the same nine guys each time out.
The lineup looked great one game and rather hapless the other three.
Scioscia said he doesn't plan on making any drastic changes after a 1-3 start caused mostly by an anemic offense.
"When you look at a lineup with Howie Kendrick hitting seventh, you've got the potential to be a pretty deep lineup. I don't think it's the personnel that's making the difference right now and I don't think it's any kind of order in the way we're going to line up," Scioscia said. "I just think some guys need to get comfortable and get into the flow of the season."
Seems reasonable enough, not getting jittery after 2 percent of your season has gone by.
"During the span of a season, these things are going to happen," Hideki Matsui said through an interpreter. "You just have to hang tight and grind it out."
Thursday was a molar-grinding evening for Angels hitters, pretty much from the first pitch. They had two on with one out in the first and didn't score. They had two on and none out in the second and scored only once.
The at-bat that stands out from that sequence was Jeff Mathis' foul pop-up with one out that stranded Kendrick at third. If he lifts the ball to an outfielder, the Angels figure to take a 2-0 lead and the night might have gone differently.
Lost in the shuffle
Joel Pineiro had a solid Angels debut, his crisp pace and his diving sinker left the Angels with no excuses other than the sputtering offense.
Angels Blog
Mark Saxon and the rest of the ESPNLosAngeles.com crew have you covered on all things Angels.
Angels blog »
Pineiro got a polite smattering of applause as he walked off the field in the seventh inning, after Scioscia replaced him with Kevin Jepsen. For a while Thursday, the Twins just beat balls into the ground, one after the next. It looked as if they were hitting fungos.
Starting with J.J. Hardy's double-play ball in the second, Pineiro got seven straight ground-ball outs. The trend was interrupted by a loud fifth inning. Backup infielder Brendan Harris smashed a high fastball over the left-field wall for a two-run homer, the big moment in a three-run inning.
In all, 13 of Pineiro's 18 outs came on the ground.
"That one mistake kind of hurt big," Pineiro said. "I felt fine. I felt good, so just keep on throwing it."
A guy seated in the 13th row behind home plate chanted, "Over-rated!" when reigning AL MVP Joe Mauer batted in the seventh inning.
Pineiro is one of many who wasn't buying that argument for a second. Coming into Thursday night, Mauer was 13-for-18 (.722) against the Angels right-hander. Only one other matchup in the major leagues has been as one-sided for the hitter (minimum 15 at-bats): Magglio Ordonez is 12-for-15 (.800) against Chad Durbin.
Mauer's first at-bat was a slicing double to left-center. He also walked and hit a grounder to first against Pineiro.
So, now he's hitting a lowly .700 off him.
The perfection of the Angels' bullpen went crashing into the right-field stands. Then, it went crashing into the left-field stands.
Jim Thome clubbed a three-run home run off Brian Stokes in the eighth inning, ending a streak of 11 scoreless innings from Angels relievers to start the season. Stokes is the pitcher the Angels got from the New York Mets in exchange for reserve outfielder Gary Matthews Jr.
Fernando Rodney, the ink on his two-year, $11 million contract still a tad damp, got knocked around in the ninth. Delmon Young hammered the first pitch he saw from Rodney into the Angels' bullpen for a three-run homer.
Quote of the day
"I don't know if I'd say it's fun at this point. I'm still conscious of my knees out there. Hopefully as the season progresses, it will start to be fun again." -- Matsui on his first start in the outfield since June 2008. Matsui did not have a putout. He picked up two singles and watched two home runs sail over his head.
Look ahead
Matt Palmer was the caulk of the Angels' pitching staff last year. He filled in gaps to keep leaks from forming. It looks as if he'll serve a similar purpose in 2010. Palmer pitched two innings of scoreless relief Tuesday and he'll come right back and make a spot start for Scott Kazmir on Friday night against the Oakland Athletics. Palmer's reward for his diligence could be a ticket to Salt Lake City. When Kazmir comes back, the Angels will need a roster spot and Palmer has an option.
The Seattle Mariners got all the buzz in the division for their offseason moves, but the young A's just beat them three times in four games. The Angels know not to take Oakland lightly. The A's usually don't stay down for long.
