Customer Reviews of Kingston 16GB DataTraveler 100 Generation 2 (G2) USB Flash Drive
Good price6/27/2012
Good product & price
Great deal!3/18/2012
This Kingston flash drive works well with all computers I have used. Its size is good for VDO file or other works with a large file size. Great deal for its price!
Dont Pass it up!10/12/2011
Plug that baby in, and its ready! Never had a problem with it.
Great item. Works with XBOX 360 among other devices. Very fast and reliable.
Great item!!!8/22/2011
Love it! Fast delivery!
The flash drive performs well. My only complaint is about the physical size. The protective sleeve is thick enough that the adjacent USB ports are inaccessible to other devices. This drive needs too much clearance.
Great Value7/7/2011
Good and relatively cheap handy drive. No software on the drive. Works well with Windows 7. Been using for nearly two months without any issues so far. This doesn't have a cap if that is what you are looking for. Buy.com shipping was fast and price here was better than any place on the web.
16gb Kingston5/24/2011
Nice drive for the money. No cap to lose. Easy to use. No extra features so it is just plug and play. No crapwear.3 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Great product5/17/2011
Tons of storage at a good price. Simple capless design, no more losing the cap. Fast transfers, much faster than other flash drives I've had. Rugged case that should stand up to abuse and the slider mechanism seems very sturdy. Easy to eliminate pre-installed software so it doesn't auto launch every time you plug it in. At this price, I bought two just in case I lose one.1 Helpful | 1 Not Helpful
I ordered 2 of this in sale for me and my girlfriend. Her pendrive works OK, but when I started to copy some files with the other, was freeze and never more was detected by my computer and laptop. I'll send to warranty next week. Buy this if is in sale, otherwise, switch to another brand2 Helpful | 1 Not Helpful
So far, So good1/9/2011
Not much used to date (review on receipt: not so smart!) But so far, so good. I like the design -- it could be a bit more robust. Then, most USB drives aren't & the price was nice. Good so far.
Just what I wanted1/9/2011
I ordered this thumb drive because it was at a great price. The Kingston name & reliability is icing on the cake. Works great, fast shipping.Before I purchase an item from other places, I now look at Buy.com first for the best price and fast delivery.
Great product1/8/2011
This is a great product and is well built. Love the retractable feature.
Fast Transfer.....1/5/2011
My Car Stereo MP3 player reads this jump drive faster than my old jump drive. Not all jump drive are created equal.
Great Device1/5/2011
At first I was skeptical of this USB drive due to its low price ($27), but it is awesome. Quality construction and very fast transfer speeds. More than 2x as fast as my 8GB Sandisk Cruzers. Liked it so much I went back and bought another... if the price lowers again, I may go for the trifecta. I have found no issues with the slider as previous comments say... it stays where it is supposed to.
Works Great ... for a while12/24/2010
I used mine for a couple of months, mostly transferring files between computers. Then I tried to copy a few gigabytes of data and it froze up. My computer tells me there's data there, but I can't delete it or even format the drive. I'm waiting for a RMA to return it.2 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Fast Shipping, Fast transfer rate....12/21/2010
I'm using this as my car USB mp3 storage. My 2010 Scion Xb Pioneer Player reads the mp3 files faster than my old jump drive. Scanning folders and mp3z are quicker with no lag....worth the price and purchase.
Value purchase12/21/2010
$20 is a great price. No annoying software. When plugged in , it is detected and ready to use immediately unlike the SanDisk drives which take a lot of time to load and to be able to access the files. Casing is not of the greatest quality though it looks very sturdy. It has a minor design flaw (in the slider cover - not a big deal though) which I have learned to ignore. Do not let this problem stop you from buying this thumb drive if you get it for a decent price. Very satisfied with the device.
Kingston 16 Gig thumb drive11/30/2010
Overall I am real happy with this purchase. The drive works great and is big enough for videos. The only drop back is how it slides open and shut. Sometimes it slides when you don't want it to -a design flaw.
Decent Value11/10/2010
As others have already indicated this device is pretty standard performance. I bought it for the extra space and convenience of 16GB in my pocket. The only complaint I really have is that the slider cover really doesn't stay put in the "closed" position. I was hoping that it might have been spring-actuated and would lock nicely into position to cover the actual connector. But the one I got slides "open" at the slightest of touches. Over all decent value.
100% Compatible with Xbox 360 (after reformat)11/1/2010
Works great and looks pretty sleek. If you catch it on sale I say go for it.
Good fast drive for the price10/31/2010
I picked this up on sale at a great price, but I was a lit worried about the speed because I have seen some drive that are pretty slow and the specs of this drive sounded slow. After receiving this, I compared it to my 8Gig Sandisk that I am replacing. To my delight, this drive is much faster at writing and only slightly slower at reading. So overall, it is a lot faster. The only thing I don't care for is the way it slides open and closed. But after using it for a few weeks, I am getting used to it.
Good value, but not made for rough duty10/31/2010
Bought it for $22 w/free shipping. Pretty good deal on a 16GB drive. Plug & play on WinXP. Performs as expected. Data transfer seems quite fast. Mixed feelings on the retractable plug design -- no cap to lose, but the sliding sleeve leaves the hole in the end of the plug exposed, which could allow foreign matter to enter and gum things up. Housing is made of a rather lightweight plastic. If you carry it, be sure to protect it from crushing as well as from dirt, lint, etc.
Pretty good value for the money.10/30/2010
Picked this up for $20. For a 16GB, $20 isn't too bad. The performance of this is pretty standard. File transfers are pretty good; not too fast and not too slow. Still acceptable though. Only real complaint with this is that the USB key slides open easily. You can click this thing open/shut but during transit in my back pack, the USB usually is open which is kind of annoying. The locking mechanism for this should have been a little better so hopefully it'll hold up down the road.
Dead after 2 weeks10/30/2010
I stored 10GB of files onto it and was extremely happy about a 16GM drive at such low price. However, after about 2 weeks, I can't retrieve any files (on multiple PC/laptops). I inserted the drive and OS would recognize and displays its content. However, if I touch any of the files, the PC would freeze and return with error after long enough. I couldn't format the drive either. Tried multiple low-lever format programs.
This drive is very fast for the buck. AJA disk test has this drive rated at 10.9 MB/s writes and 21.2 reads for 128 MB files which is very impressive. You can't get better writes but you can get 30 MB/s reads with Patriot Xporters. Gen one DT 100 was slightly faster!!! But those costed more, had a difficult slider thumb switch, and now maybe extinct. More pros: the slider locks well into place and there is a loop that sticks out to make adding a lanyard or keyring easier. I wouldn't recommend a large Keyring with might put too much torque and break the loop. I like the styling too. Cons: Large girth and length. The slider has a hollow plastic feel to it and the case doesn't seem as durable as say the datatraveler 101. Overall, I would say that this generation of DT 100 is arguably an improvement over the previous one. Good price and performance.
good memory, so-so case10/30/2010
Flash drive seems to preform well. I was a little disappointed with the case - seems a little flimsy and cover simply slides back once you put it in your pocket, making it pretty much useless. If you're looking for one that might get banged around some, might want to get one with a rubber case.
good price fast delivery10/30/2010
Good price - fast delivery. Could not ask for more. Oh product works fine too!

As others have pointed out here, on SA, and on CF the conditions don't SEEM to have been sufficiently harsh to result in the kind of damage being reported but we don't know and probably won't. Data collection is generally acknowledged as under reporting conditions, and individuals--particularly those with less experience--grossly over report conditions. We'll never really know.
There is still the opportunity to learn by exploring. Judging our colleagues (well the colleagues of those of us who sail offshore) doesn't contribute to that, even if part of the learning is by considering human failure.
The more I hear, the more I'm inclined to believe that at least some of those boats out there saw conditions well in excess of what has been reported...
There have been some communications relayed over on CSBB from Tom Brownell on DISTANT STAR, a very experienced sailor on a Hylas 54 who left with the earliest of the Salty Dawg departures... Beyond the Stream, they experienced very squally conditions for a couple more days, with gusts to 50 knots...
This blog post from the Najad 460 SERAFINA, and another pretty experienced crew:
Well firstly the good news which is that it is now Saturday and things have
finally settled down, we have just shaken three of the four reefs out of the
mainsail and are sailing at 6 to 7 knots almost directly towards the BVI's.
That is a real first on this trip as we spent most of the last day or so
either heading for Florida or Bermuda depending on which tack we were on.
Yesterday we were congratulating ourselves on coming out of the storm intact
and in fair shape and with the wind forecast to drop to around 20 knots we
felt the worst was behind us, but we should perhpas have paid a litle more
attention to the mountainous waves that kept threatening to engulf us. We
have experienced Atlantic rollers before, but these monsters where
vertiginous and with massive breaking crests - then there were the odd rogue
ones running at an angle to the main sweep and these pounded us and broke
hard against the hull sending tons of water over the decks and of course
whoever was sat in the cockit at the time! But it was fine and heavily
reefed still we made good speed although mostly heading directly towards
Bermuda. The first hint that it was not all over was at sunset and we saw
another big formation of clouds bearing down on us that had all the signs of
being another front. The air temperature plummetted and once again we were
hit by winds over 40 knots. The minor disaster occured just as I went
off-watch and was stood at the foot of the companionway stairs speaking up
to Sarah in the cockpit. In the dark she never saw it coming, but heard it
all just a bit too late and two huge rogue waves slammed into our side
engulfing us in water, a significant part of which entered the cockpit and
streamed straight down inside the boat leaving a trail of devestation in
terms of wet bedding, clothing, chart table and me just as I was about to
jump into the sea berth for a deserved attempt at sleep!
But in a sense that was the worst of it all and although we had the
washboards in for the rest of the night, the wind did abate and the seas
gradually eased until we reached the happier situation today.
On Thursday night Sarah had listened to some drama on the VHF as she could
hear a US Coastguard cutter co-ordinating what sounded like two major
situations, one involving a dismasting and the routing of a tanker to effect
a resue of the crew. But we have heard nothing more and the only two boats
we have been in contact with since know nothing more than us.
So the forecast has this weather staying much the same now for a few days
and then we may face a southely wind for several days (we are trying to go
south which is a pain, but cést la vie.)
Clearing flying fish off the decks regularily now and if it gets a bit
flatter, we will start fishing, but not just yet.
Very many thanks to all of you who have been cheering us up with emails
(only send to rob {CHANGE TO AT} rhbell {DOT} com please)
Sarah stopped being sick finally yesterday and we are begiing to feel a bit
better about life and might yet even enjoy the last part of the trip!

2003 Cabo Rico 42 Sail Boat For Sale - www.yachtworld.com
Great day today, departed Coinjock at 0500... Sporty crossing of Abemarle sound, there was just enough W in the breeze to sail across, fetching the Alligator River entrance... Ours were the only sails unfurled/hoisted I saw today...
South of the Alligator bridge, we were passed by a brand new Beneteau Oceanis 45, under power, like we were standing still... At that point a couple of miles south of the bridge where the channel bends to the SE, we had the most beautiful sail imaginable, close reaching in about 15-18 knots in flat water... About as good as it ever gets, too bad that reach doesn't continue forever...
the couple on that Beneteau, inside their full cockpit enclosure, couldn't even be bothered to unfurl a jib, or their in-mast main...
Further evidence, that East coast snowbirds just don't sail... :-)

Mouse brain activity monitored on video in real time
One of the test mice, and a live video feed of its fluorescing neurons
Article Summary
What's that mouse thinking about? Scientists at California's Stanford University can now tell you – to a limited extent. They recently had success in imaging the neural activity of mice, in real time. While the ability to "read a mouse's mind" may not fire many peoples' imaginations, the technology could prove very useful in researching diseases like Alzheimer's.

Over the past 25 years there have been a number of major transitions that have changed everything when it comes to IT. Today, it's the cloud.
Microsoft's chief information security officer, Bret Arsenault, has been around for it all. While Bret is a leader at Microsoft, he shares a familiar perspective with Microsoft's customers in managing risk across line-of-business applications and IT.
Bret says one thing has remained constant as the IT world has evolved: the need for information security. Regardless of the IT model du jour, companies still must ensure confidentiality, integrity and availability of data in order to do business.
Get Bret's perspective on how the cloud changes the equation for IT teams:
What takes a mindset adjustment is the notion that with the cloud, operational elements such as servers and hardware are moved out of the company's purview. That doesn't mean operational upkeep stops happening, however. Updating applications and servers occurs automatically with cloud computing. Business continuity and disaster recovery can be built into the cloud services agreement rather than requiring a large investment in network and storage space.
In other words, cloud services take care of much of the work that companies formerly had to do themselves.

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-148 or ACA) is constitutional with modifications to the Medicaid expansion provisions. In a 5-4 opinion, the Court upheld the individual mandate under Congress's taxing power, while holding that the mandate is not a constitutional exercise of Congress's power under the Commerce Clause or the Necessary and Proper Clause. With respect to the ACA's expansion of Medicaid to cover new populations (with enhanced federal funding), the Supreme Court held that the provision is constitutional as long as states do not lose their existing Medicaid funding.
A repeal effort is expected; however, implementation of the ACA will continue, with the prospect of a full repeal increasing in difficulty and complexity as the implementation process continues to move forward.

FALLBROOK: Tips on McStay disappearance grow scarce
Still no trace of missing family, authorities say
"There is no indication that they were running away from something. I try to keep my mind open to foul play, but also to prove if they left on their own. I can't get a hit either way."
DuGal said the mystery is so puzzling, it is a rare day when someone, usually his colleagues, doesn't stop him to ask him about it.
One promising tip led investigators to a waiter in Mexico who was convinced he saw the family, and remembered the youngest child's large birthmark on his forehead. The waiter even turned over to investigators a map the family left behind after their meal.
Fingerprints on the map, it turned out, did not belong to the McStays, DuGal said.
DuGal said he has done sit-down interviews in recent months with television crews for upcoming episodes about the family.
In one instance, a crew with the Discovery Channel show "Disappeared" was in North County in September to tape an episode about the family. Mike McStay said he believes the show will air Jan. 4.
Details were still vague with regard to the airing of a second possible show.
Moving forward
As the search continues, relatives from both sides of the missing family work together. In August, Mike McStay met up with his brother's in-laws at the Fallbrook home to salvage what they could of the missing family's lives before the home fell into foreclosure, since house payments hadn't been made since February.
Records, however, indicate that the bank had not started foreclosure proceedings as of mid-December.
Mike McStay makes sure to stay in touch with his brother's 14-year-old son from a previous marriage, attending the Oceanside teenager's piano recitals and making plans to see him at Christmas.
While doing a fire-sprinkler installation job last week, Mike McStay said he ran into a woman he knew from his youth. The encounter flooded his mind with thoughts of his missing older brother.
Born three years apart, the pair hunted and fished together as children in Texas, and turned to surfing when they moved to California. They started a company together, designing and building indoor water fountains.
Mike McStay said his family remains distraught, but has tried to return to life as normal. His mother, he said, has gone back to work. He and his wife, who have three daughters, are readying their Orange County home for the pending adoption of two orphans from Ghana.
But thoughts are never far from the missing family.
"My girls pray every night for them," Mike McStay said. "My littlest one, she will always say, 'And God, I know you are going to bring Joey home soon.'"
Mike McStay has chronicled the search for the family on his website: www.mcstayfamily.com .

Worships on the Sabbath Day
Gods Church observes the 7th day Sabbath and the Seven annual Holy Days. Lev: 23
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Our Mission:
The Mission of ManifestedGlory is to fulfill the great commission given by Jesus, to go into all the earth and make disciples of men.
Manifested Glory desires to, through the preached word of God, restore the lives of men and women who has been disillusioned that they also experience productive lives executing the plan and purpose of God.
Manifested Glory is committed to establishing good character and responsible behavior in all of it's members in order to represent Christ to a dying world, that others may come to know that there is hope even in the darkest of times.
Manifested Glory is motivated to train and develop it's members to exercise there natural and spiritual gifts, that they too may go forth accomplishing the works of Christ in the earth.
Learning and Excepting The Truth:
My Question for today is that can we still remain family, friends or even acquaintances if are views and beliefs are different ? I say in most cases absolutely not! because as individuals we do not respect the value and the liberty of another persons critical thinking skills...
Through prayer and spending years, months and numerous hours in the word of God and with God, and not connecting to what I were seeing in church on Sundays, I came to the conclusion that every thing that I was taught about traditional Christianity was wrong on so many levels and every holiday that I celebrated as a child up until a few years ago were pagan and had absolutely nothing to do with Jesus (Yeshua). Matthew 15: 1-3 said Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, 2 "Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!" 3 Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
So with that said, can we still remain, family, friends or acquaintances now that I know longer worship on Sunday, celebrated Easter, Christmas, Halloween, Good Friday, Lent or support the Pre- raptured theory. I believe every thing that we were all taught was wrong concerning The Gospel of Yeshua. In Revelation 12:9 The bible said that Satan has deceived the whole world. Satan had blinded millions about the truth and because most believers are to lazy to seek yea first the kingdom of God and all his righteous they play right into The Last day of Great Deception..
We as believers have to search the scriptures out for ourselves, seek the holy spirit for truth because through satan man has deceived the whole world..
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
Revelation 22: 18-19 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

Nothing like Indiana Jones had ever been done before. Years later, he was able to make a ride that combines complex vehicles with elaborate scenes. It remains his favorite.
"It's storytelling, but it's also out of control," Baxter said, standing outside the entrance. "This was a breakthrough, a real breakthrough."
Baxter is also proud of smaller designs.
Before Splash Mountain was constructed on the west side of the park, Disneyland planners intended to remove planters in New Orleans Square to make more room to walk. Baxter was horrified.
He deployed lessons learned in college studying freeway design. Crews installed a cloverleaf-style line going into Pirates of the Caribbean below a new pedestrian bridge – more paths without removing any trees.
In his last years at Disney, Baxter mentored young colleagues such as Michel Den Dulk, who had heard about Baxter while growing up in the Netherlands. "If you work for the theme park industry, as a designer, sooner or later the name Tony Baxter comes up," Den Dulk said.
Baxter knew of Den Dulk, too, from his work in Europe. In 2008, Baxter sent an email with the subject line, "What great things are you doing?" Baxter successfully recruited Den Dulk for Disney.
"He loves to talk about Disney and everything related to Disney," said Den Dulk, 33. "Although there's an age gap, of course, that's not visible in any way when you work with Tony, at least from my experience. Tony is all about the work and the quality and the ideas and Disney, and that's what it's about."
Colleague Kim Irvine, who has worked alongside Baxter since the 1970s, said Baxter deeply understands Disneyland.
"Tony has always been to me the quintessential Disneyland fan and he understands our demographic so well," said Irvine, the art director of Disneyland. "He understands the Disneyland fans, because he is one."
His imprint on Disney is so great that Disney fans often recognize him.
During a September walk through Disneyland with a reporter, two men followed Baxter, pretending to take pictures of other things but were after shots of him. Another visitor shouted to Baxter at Splash Mountain.
"Thank you so much for everything," Bryant McVey of Dallas said.
When approached by the reporter, McVey explained: "He's one of my heroes."

Review: 'Community' - 'Intro to Political Science': Pop-pop vs. pbbt-pbbt
A review of last night's "Community" coming up just as soon as I know the distinction between Duck and Goose...
Because of the show's pop culture blender style, most episodes of "Community" feel familiar in some way, but "Intro to Political Science" felt a little too familiar - both to the outside culture and to the show itself. Some funny moments here and there, and a wonderful Abed subplot, but not one of the season's strongest overall.
The series hasn't dabbled in satirizing politics and/or political coverage yet, but I kept feeling like it had, in part because so many beats of the Jeff/Annie story echoed many similar plots involving those two, in part because so many of the specific ways in which it satirized the election and its coverage have been done in plenty of other shows and movies. Jeff trying to prove that voters just want to be pandered to by a charming guy who strokes everyone's ego, for instance, is a pretty old insight, on top of too closely echoing his opening statement from the debate episode.
The ways in which this was specifically a "Community" political satire were fun, like Magnitude and Leonard's final debate, Troy referring to himself as Troy "Butt Soup" Barnes on the closed-circuit show, or anything involving Dean Pelton wearing the Uncle Sam costume that belongs to his "sister," but overall the main story seemed a bit flat.
(And it also continued the Evil Pierce thing, albeit in a minor running joke as opposed to building another episode around it. Given the "South Park" punchline to the election, it's hard to resist those who've wanted to label Pierce as the Cartman of this show.)
But there were enough laughs in the debate storyline - including Jeff's humiliating "Real World" audition tape - to allow the episode to carry the sweet, unexpected, chaste romance between Abed and Secret Service Agent Vohlers, played by Eliza Coupe from the last two seasons of "Scrubs." The show sometimes has an elastic sense of just how much Abed understands other people's behavior, as well as his own, but here it worked because he and Vohlers were so obviously on each other's wavelength - and because the nature of her job, and the off-center personalities on-hand, meant that whatever kind of relationship they're going to have could be anything but typical. I know Coupe's now a regular on ABC's upcoming "Happy Endings," but hopefully there will be room in her schedule to allow her to come back again, because she and Danny Pudi were fantastic together.
What did everybody else think?

Deaths feared as landslide hits Papua New Guinea
More News from Agence France-Presse
SYDNEY—Rescue workers were Wednesday attempting to reach a remote part of Papua New Guinea after a massive landslide which Australian reports said may have left dozens of people buried.
The landslide struck near a huge ExxonMobil liquefied natural gas project in the country's rugged southern highlands on Tuesday, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation said, leaving a trail of destruction.
It cited a local villager as saying about 40 people were missing, although this could not be confirmed. Other reports said only a handful of homes were lost.
An aerial shot of the disaster showed mud and other debris extending for about one kilometer (0.62 miles) across a forested area.
A spokeswoman for ExxonMobil said all its personnel were accounted for.
"We have been in contact with the Natural Disaster and Response Office. We have closed down work in the surrounding area," she said.
ExxonMobil's Aus$16 billion LNG project is due to begin production in 2014 and will see PNG's natural gas sold across Asia for the next 30 years.
ABC said the main road in the area had been cut in half, hindering rescue workers' attempts to reach the scene, but they were expected to arrive later Wednesday when a fuller picture should emerge.

SPENCERVILLE — For Tony, it is difficult to remember life without diabetes.
"I'm legally blind, so I don't drive and I'm on disability, because I've been diabetic for 31 years, and I'll be 38 soon," he said. "Now it's gotten to the point since I've had it for so long that it's taken a toll on my body and I'm in need of a kidney and pancreas transplant. I now have stage 4 kidney disease."
Tony and his fiancee, Mary, live together with Mary's three children, Jill, 17, Logan, 12, and Daniel, 8. Tony was able to work until this past year, when the damage to his kidneys and eyes became too severe to keep working.
"The worse off his kidneys get, there are new symptoms that crop up," she said. "He had basically taken care of the house and the kids while I went to work, but it's hard to be a mom with that, and I'm sure he'd rather be working outside the house. It seems like my paycheck is just never enough."
The strain of trying to support her children as well as her fiance has forced Christmas to go on the backburner for Mary.
"Normally I have everything planned out, the decorations are up and the kids are taken care of," she said. "This year, it's just so hard because I'm either at work or taking him to the doctor's office."
Even with Mary's wages, gifts will be hard to come by this year. Mary noted that the kids could use some clothing. Jill wears a women's large shirt and women's size 13-14 pants. Logan wears a young men's medium shirt and he enjoys wearing men's medium exercise pants. Daniel wears a boys medium shirt and boys size 8-10 pants. Mary and Tony are also hoping that they will be able to get some board games or card games for the kids.
"We're trying to get them away from the television," Mary said.
The family could also use gas cards, as they will be looking at upcoming trips to Cincinnati, where Tony's transplant team is based.
"We're in the process of trying to get the kidney transplant done, because I really don't want to be on dialysis," Tony said.
For Mary, she is hoping that whatever else happens, the kids have a good Christmas, giving them a break from the circumstances the family is facing.
"I think the kids are suffering because they see him not the way he used to be, and Mom's tired and stressed and grumpy," she said. "It's killing me that I can't do for them like I want to."

When I first received the product, it sounded great. The sound quality for these earphones at that price is always a good thing. Unfortunately, the next day, one of the earbuds decided to not work, and the sound has been going in and out ever since. They're now useless.

clear sound, fits perfectly, definitely would buy again
Great Earbuds4/23/2013

sound great4/19/2013
These sound quite good. I've been picking up quite a few earbuds/headphoenes..seem to lose them easily. Some sound horrible..these have a nice sound to them. The red makes them easy to spot.
Very good product.4/12/2013
This earphone set is really good and it arrived quickly and safely.
These Work Well4/8/2013
These were a good value and are comparable to the Skullcandy brand of ear buds. They have a nice tonal quality and, hopefully, a better build than SC ones, which tended to fail quite frequently at the jack.
For the price they awesomee!4/14/2011

Trustee-area voting to start in Escondido
Five school board hopefuls will compete for 2 seats in 2 sections
ESCONDIDO Five Escondido residents are vying for two open seats on the city's K-8 school board in the first election using the by-trustee area voting system.
The election guarantees two new trustees for the Escondido Union School District board. Marv Gilbert is not seeking re-election, and Zoe Carpenter stepped down in August.
The district agreed last fall to change its elections from an at-large, citywide system to voting by trustee area. California school districts have faced lawsuits alleging minority voters are underrepresented.
The district has five trustee areas. Only residents in Areas 1 and 3 will vote on the candidates. Area 1 is in central Escondido, roughly between Interstate 15 and east to Midway Drive. Area 3 is generally the southeast area, south of downtown and east of Interstate 15.
The district, led by Superintendent Jennifer Walters, serves nearly 18,000 students at 23 schools and a preschool program. It employs more than 1,800 people. According to the 2011 state Academic Performance Index report, the district has a "numerically significant" number of socio-economically disadvantaged students and English-language learners.
The district has wrestled for several years with state cuts to education funding. Teacher layoffs were avoided this school year when trustees approved a district staff recommendation to use reserves to balance the budget amid the uncertainty of state funding that's based on November tax initiatives.
The district is well-regarded for its use of technology in the classroom to enhance learning and boost student achievement.
Joe Bologna, Area 1
Bologna, 56, a Harrah's Rincon Casino & Resort games table dealer, has lived in Area 1 since moving to Escondido more than 30 years ago. He was the longtime owner of a bread distribution company.
As the father of three grown children who attended Escondido public schools, Bologna said, he has long been interested in education. "Education is the foundation for shaping the future leaders of our community."
He said the district's biggest challenge is the state economic crisis. He said he understands the difficulties of reduced budgets and the importance of financial stability. "Having managed budgets at home, Little League, and in business, I know the importance of learning to live within or below your means."
He said he would like to eliminate any waste in the education system so that more money can be directed to classrooms. "We need to focus on continuing to bring each child to the highest level of their ability."
Bologna said the district is strong in several areas, including showing progress for English-language learners and the integration of technology in the classroom.
Bologna is chairman of the city's Community Services Commission. He served on the board of directors for Escondido American Little League for seven years. In 2010, he ran for mayor.
Jose Fragozo, Area 1
Fragozo, 47, a senior electronics technician for the County Water Authority, has lived in Escondido for 10 years. He said he moved two months ago from Hidden Meadows in north Escondido to a small apartment in Area 1. Hidden Meadows is in Area 5.

Real-time video surveillance has long been used in stationary environments with proven success. Real-time video surveillance on public transport has not been very successful, however, mainly because of technological limitations. The Centre for Communications Engineering Research at ECU's School of Engineering has been working in collaboration with the WA Public Transport Authority on a project to develop new strategies to improve the throughput in mobile wireless communications. This means a centrally monitored real-time video surveillance system can be facilitated on public transport.
In such a system, real-time video data from the mobile transports will be transmitted to wireless base stations that are connected to a high-speed wide area network. Base stations will send video data to a central control room where security experts will monitor and interpret video contents. The amount of throughput provided by the existing wireless technologies is not sufficient to support a centrally monitored video surveillance system on public transport.
The potential outcomes from this project will bring valuable social and economic benefits to Australia. With the increasing fuel prices and concerns about environmental impacts, it is expected that take up of public transport in Australia will increase.
The safety of the passengers is an issue of supreme interest for transport authorities. Video surveillance will aid the transport authority to improve public safety and security.
Professor Daryoush Habibi, Dr Ifekhar Ahmad.

For more than five decades, the Missouri State Fair Fire Department has provided emergency services to the multitudes of visitors and while actual fires are rare, the organization runs hundreds of calls, facing many unique challenges.
The department was founded in 1962 in an old Army tent near the Beef House. At that time, the firefighters were just there to provide information on fire prevention. Several years later, they were actually charged with protecting the grounds and an emergency medical service component was added.
"We have come a long way," said Public Information Officer Lt. Joe Jennings. "We started in 1962 just to provide information on the fire service and progressed to where we are at."
While they are only there for 11 days out of the year, a day in the life of a State Fair Firefighter is very similar to that of a firefighter in any other department. Mornings begin with station cleaning, truck cleaning, equipment checks and a daily briefing.
"Mornings start with a daily briefing of what is going on around the fairgrounds, after that every day we do some sort of training," Jennings said. "We bring in 40 different agencies and do training as one, so that they can bring some of that training back to their department."
Sometimes that training becomes one of the most attended events of the Fair. Firefighters conduct live vehicle fires, accident rescue simulations and display some of the amazing equipment that people's lives depend upon on a daily basis.
"We are always doing something out in front of the station. We are always handing out coloring books, little sticker badges, and we have a little stress reliever fire hydrant this year we are handing out. We're giving tours of the fire trucks, it's amazing how kids love getting in there," Jennings said.
The most common incidents at the fair are usually medical calls, such as falls, heat-related illness and diabetic emergencies.
"We had a pregnancy call this year where a woman almost went into labor. Luckily, we got her off the grounds before that happened," Jennings said.
Regardless, the department is prepared to respond to any type of emergency.
"We have four ambulances here on the grounds and four engines," Jennings said. "The ambulances provide advanced life support medical services so you are going to get the same treatment in our ambulance as you are as soon as you step off the fairgrounds. We are ready to go at anything that's thrown at us."
An enormous challenge in the face of thousands of visitors walking the grounds at any given time is just getting to the scene.
"It is an absolute challenge to get an ambulance and firetrucks through the big crowds," Jennings said. "We don't run our sirens on the fairgrounds for the sake of all the different animals that are on the grounds. We do run the lights. All the captains on the engines have their own techniques. They use the intercoms on the trucks and scrape the microphone so there is some sort of noise."
This year has been relatively quiet. The department is averaging 10 calls per day — 22 of those were on Saturday — but years past have tested the department on several fronts.
"A race car careened into the grandstand in 1965. We don't have a lot of information on that, but we know it happened and there were several injuries," Jennings said. "Back in the '80s, a stuffed animal trailer caught on fire on the midway. That's probably the biggest fire we have had on the grounds. We have been very fortunate not to have had any major fires."
Firefighters come from all across the state to volunteer at the Fair. Every firefighter that works the Fair is a member of the Firefighters Association of Missouri, an organization that offers them several benefits and acts as the voice of firefighters to the legislature.
"We've got people from the northwest to as far as down in the Bootheel. We have about 40 departments represented and average about 40 to 50 personnel a day," Jennings said.
The Missouri State Fair Fire Department is the only operational fire department in the United States that operates for only 11 days a year. The Department is staffed with volunteers 24 hours per day throughout the State Fair and can be found on Facebook by searching for Missouri State Fair Fire Department.

We haven't seen the faptastic Emma Watson in some time now, so quite the uplifting surprise to see Hermione looking rather stellar in white on the red carpet for the New York premiere of Gravity. Lots of Emma Watson oglers were outraged a couple years ago now when Emma chopped off her long locks and made a play for being too important to be a classic big screen sex symbol, but she's managed somehow to make it all work.
As we've said many times, you can't cage the sextastic, it's not something that can be bottled or contained, it finds its way out, as it did last night with Emma in New York. She can look so damn amazing, even if she doesn't want to. I suppose there's something poetic in that. Enjoy.

In R v Soul (1980) 70 Cr. App. R. 295 a group who agreed to secure the unlawful release of a restricted Broadmoor patient was convicted of conspiracy to effect a public nuisance. The court seems to have assumed that the public would have been exposed to danger had the plan been put into effect. That the Crown had failed to prove any actual danger or common injury was not considered (see the critical commentary at (1980) Crim. LR 234 suggesting that the courts were improperly reintroducing "public mischief" into the law despite the ruling by the House of Lords in R v Withers (1975) AC 842). Similarly, in R v Millward (1986) 8 Cr. App R(S) 209 the defendant made hundreds of telephone calls (636 in a single day) to a young woman police officer with whom he had become infatuated, at the police station where she worked. As to the requirement of common injury, Glidewell LJ, said:
The second argument raised by the defence was that the law lacked the certainty to be valid under Article 7 European Convention on Human Rights.

Rep Power:
I can't add anything here that hasn't already been said. The price paid with steel is eternal vigilance. The payoff is when you kedge off that uncharted coral reef with only some time with a rubber mallet and yet more paint in the next boat yard down the line.
We haven't seen salt in our steel cruiser, but I suspect I will find some interesting things behind the water tanks that are coming out, to judge by the interesting things we've found under the headliner and insulation in the aft cabin. It's not much, but it's been there for years and will require the requisite grind 'n' prime and two-part shuffle.
But I will say again what I've posted before: When idiots do this to your steel boat:
and the only damage is this:
...you'll be happy to do all that painting. Steel can save you from a long trip in a small raft in a way that 90% of most fibreglass or wooden boats simply can't...although the Tayana 45 beside me in the yard this winter looked like the most brutally overbuilt 18-tonne chunk of plastic I'd ever seen up close.

I was glad to see Kendel Grove lose. He is one of those fighters i hate because he is a cocky/arrogant bastered who thinks he is the best and he is far from it. I just hate fighters that have no respect for anyone (diego sanchez for example). Way to go patrick cote for shutting him up.
BTW, did you see that shot the provided of diego sanchez when the GSP/Koschek fight? He looked like he was badly constipated!! I felt like slapping that look off of his face.

Harry Crocker
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the Australian rugby league footballer, see Harold Crocker.
Harry Crocker (July 2, 1893 – May 23, 1958) was an American actor of the 1920s. He appeared in Charlie Chaplin's The Circus in 1928. He was a Los Angeles Examiner newsman.[1]
Crocker was born on July 2, 1893. His grand uncle was Charles Crocker (1822–1888) who had been a builder of the Central Pacific Railroad[citation needed] and his distant cousin was the philanthropist William Henry Crocker, president of Crocker National Bank.
Crocker married Elizabeth Jenns[2] in late 1936.[3]
He was Chaplin's personal assistant until he was fired during the making of Chaplin's City Lights in 1930. He later reconciled with Chaplin and maintained a friendship until the comedian left America in 1952.
He died on May 23, 1958.[1][4]
