SpendingPulse is a division of MasterCard Advisors that tracks total sales paid for by credit card, checks and cash.
Crude has given up 70% of its value since July, and this month alone it has fallen by more than $17 per barrel, a 30% decline.
Tom Kloza said he'll know that crude prices are poised for a sustained rebound when global demand matches last year's levels for several weeks in a row.
"Before you turn the corner, you need to get to the corner," Kloza said. "And right now we're seeing gasoline demand running about 3 to 5% behind year-ago levels.
Investors eyed more evidence that plummeting consumer demand from the U.S. and Europe is undermining growth in export-dependent Asia, as production at major Japanese manufacturers fell by its largest margin ever in November.
Japanese industrial production fell 8.1% in November from a month earlier, the largest drop since the government began measuring such data in 1953, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said Friday.
The decline followed a 3.1% drop in October, and the government expects another 8% plunge in December.
"These are pretty ugly figures that show the recession deepened in Japan," said Christoffer Moltke-Leth, head of sales trading for Saxo Capital Markets in Singapore. "I don't see any catalyst to bring crude higher. We'll likely test $30."
Many companies will likely report dismal earnings for the fourth quarter and may use the lowered expectations to include massive write-downs or one-time charges, Moltke-Leth said.
"I think a lot of CEOs want to put everything bad into the fourth quarter because the market expects it to be bad so why not put everything you can in there," he said. "There's going to be a lot of bad corporate news during the next few weeks, and that's going to reinforce the demand destruction theme for crude."
In other Nymex trading, gasoline futures rose 5.17 cents to settle at 88.4 cents a gallon. Heating oil gained 4.67 cents to settle at $1.245 a gallon while natural gas for January delivery fell 8.4 cents to settle at $5.826 per 1,000 cubic feet.

Get a pro, unless you know how to build the programmer for the Lite. It's not too difficult to build, but for only $13 difference I'd save myself some time and get the PRO.

Fred Net Worth: Fred is a Brazilian professional footballer (soccer player) who has a net worth of $12 million. Frederico Chaves Guedes (aka Fred) was born October 3, 1983 in Teofilo Otoni, Mias Gerais, Brazil. He is currently a striker for Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Fluminense and also played for the Brazil national team. Best known by his nickname, Fred, he is known for scoring the fastest goal in professional football history during his time at America Mineiro against Vila Nova, a goal that took no more than 3.17 seconds after the sound of the whistle, marking the start of the game. Fred signed with Atletico Mineiro at the early age of 5, playing at every age level for the club and eventually breaking into the senior side at the age of 19. He played there for four seasons, making 29 appearances and scoring 9 goals. In 2004, he then moved to Brazilian Powerhouse Cruzeiro, where his goal-scoring continued as he managed 40 goals in 43 appearances. In 2005, defending Ligue 1 Champions, Lyon came knocking on his door with a transfer fee of a reported $20 million. After playing 15 out of a possible 20 games in the 2008-09 campaign for Lyon and managing only 2 goals, Fred requested the club release him. The club agreed and Fred was released of his contract in February of 2009. He then went back to Fluminese, proving to be an immediate asset. Fred made his international debut in April 2005 and proceeded to be named as part of the 2006 World Cup in Germany. He was also a part of the team that won the Copa America in 2007. Fred helped Brazil earn the Confederations Cup in 2013, scoring an impressive 5 goals throughout the tournament.

I Found A Winner
Just purchased a ProStyle MacBook sleeve for my 15" laptop, and I LOVE it! After much shopping around, I found a winner in your product. Thank you for creating a great MacBook sleeve.
Beautifully Made
I bought the Brenthaven ProStyle Sleeve for my MacBook Air based on other online reviews, and it is a very nice piece. The quality of materials and workmanship appear to be excellent throughout -- definitely a cut above cases found in office supply stores. One should understand that this sleeve is a simple product to protect your computer. The pocket for a cell phone is sufficient for that purpose, but trying to use it for anything bulkier like a portable mouse, is pushing it. (Whenever I need the mouse, charger, and documents, I use another case with shoulder straps and pockets.) Brenthaven's product video on YouTube is an honest representation of this case. I'm VERY pleased with it. If I ever need any type of case I will definitely check with Brenthaven. Nice job...
Get this!
I have never felt some thing so good. It is like a tempurpedic bed for your mac. Not only does it keep it safe, it is very water resistant. When i take my Macbook out of the MacBook sleeve, it seems to clean the out side every time.I LOVE IT<3 It would be perfect if the charger could fit some how. But everything else makes up for it. Mine also came with a screen cleaner cloth which I use daily. Men and women can use it. The yellow accents make it POP. :) If you want a sleeve for MacBook that is stylish and safe then get this!
Pretty Awesome
I must say, this MacBook sleeve is pretty awesome. It's a great way to keep your laptop on the go.
Love it!
Had this MacBook sleeve for a month so far and it has exceeded my expectations. I love how the sleeve fits my MacBook Air so perfectly; its not too tight but its not too loose. I also love that iPhone pocket, but I don't use it for my phone, I just use it to carry my USB drives. I was thrilled when I found out it came with a free screen cleaning cloth. It looks good and its comfortable to carry. The handle on the back was weird to use at first, but now I like it and use it often. Thanks!
Well Done
Have tried other MacBook cases/sleeves, and have finally found the 'right one' -- it's a smooth fit, provides good protection, is light, and it fits well in my briefcase. I don't use the handle very often, but it is there if I need it. Good quality material, including the zipper. The MacBook sleeve looks professional. Well done.
Thank You for Inventing This Design
The MacBook sleeve that I bought (Prostyle sleeve) is very convenient and very soft to touch. Also, the fact that the MacBook sleeve is impermeable to water allows me to bring my computer to places that I did not dare to go before. What's more, the EZ-grip handle on it just makes me want to bring the MacBook sleeve everywhere with me, even before bringing my friends anywhere :). Thank you for inventing this design.

Schlumberger Ltd. announces layoffs
Schlumberger Ltd., the world's largest oil field services company, with facilities in Graham, announced a 5 percent reduction of its North American work force Friday, according to spokesman Stephen Harris.
Harris said the company hasn't announced a breakdown of job cuts by location.
"We don't have any specifics in terms of location by location," said Harris, who explained the company only released detailed numbers on jobs to be cut from their North American headquarters in Houston, their largest center of employees in the region.
The Associated Press reported that the Schlumberger cuts, which began this week, will eliminate up to 1,000 of the company's 19,000 North American employees. These will include up to 100 of its 5,000 jobs in the Houston area.
Among the jobs being cut are administrative support positions, field operations personnel and contract workers, he said.
The company, with headquarters in Houston and Paris, is also cutting employees in other parts of the world, but details about those reductions were not yet available, Harris said.
Schlumberger employs about 80 workers in their two oil services facilities in Graham.
Oil field services companies staffed up in recent years as the price of crude rose toward record levels, approaching $150 a barrel just last summer.
However, the industry is being hit with a recent drastic drop in business and the ongoing global economic crisis
Halliburton, the world's second-largest oil services company, and Houston-based Baker Hughes, the third-largest services firm, have not announced cuts.
In December, Schlumberger hinted at trouble when it warned 2008 profits will be below analysts' expectations.
"We have been consistent in our view that our results would be affected in the event of a severe global economic downturn, which we are now facing," Chairman and Chief Executive Andrew Gould said then.
"However, we still maintain that in the longer term, the fundamentals of our industry are sound." The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Election presents a long, dizzying ballot with momentous choices
CORPUS CHRISTI - It's hard enough to get voters to the polls for any election, but this year brings a double-whammy as Coastal Bend residents will see some of the longest ballots they've ever had, raising the likelihood of another bane of the democratic process: voter fatigue.
A voter in Corpus Christi could have 37 choices on up to 13 electronic pages.
So the election — combining for the first time in many cities the municipal, county, school, state and federal ballots into one — already has a built-in deterrent for busy folks who might be tempted to mark an 'X' for Mitt Romney or Barack Obama and then break for the door.
Yet the stakes could not be higher all the way down the ballot.
The future — of national health care, local roads, school buildings, education funding, city parks, and the people who will make decisions about all of this and more — gets decided in the next 16 days.
Bob Bezdek, a political scientist who for years has collected reams of data on Coastal Bend elections, said even he sympathizes with the overwhelmed voter.
"What do I even know?" he confessed. "I don't know who to vote for in those Supreme Court places or Court of Criminal Appeals places."
One of the great dangers, Bezdek said, is that the long ballot will tempt hurried voters into marking straight Democratic or Republican tickets and then submitting the ballot, not realizing this means they won't cast a vote in the nonpartisan city and school elections.
In Corpus Christi, those voters will miss out on deciding the mayoral race and $90 million in bond elections for city facilities, the bulk of which, $55 million, would rebuild heavily traveled roads in the oldest areas of town.
In Gregory-Portland and Robstown school districts, straight-ticket voters would miss a chance to decide on funds for school construction.
Nueces County poll workers will have sample ballots for people waiting in line, giving them a chance to review all of the choices during what could be a much longer wait than usual.
"We're really pushing early voting," said Rochelle Limón, county election manager.
Sample ballots tailored to each voting precinct are available for download on the county's website so voters can see exactly what their ballot will look like ahead of time.
Corpus Christi voters have seven contested city council races plus the mayor to choose. In any given council district, a voter could choose the council member for that district, plus three at-large council members and the mayor.
This comes at a pivotal juncture for the city as it embarks on what will likely be a 22-year, nearly $1 billion program to restore streets neglected for decades, and as the city formulates new policies to perform regular maintenance and prevent streets and buildings from ever getting that bad again.
"It keeps me awake at night because I don't know how to fix it yet and it is so big," City Manager Ron Olson said. "It's like if this were the federal government, we'd be looking at $16 trillion in debt."
Yet, for many local voters, the presidential election will remain the largest draw, even though Texas has been left behind on the campaign trail. Four years ago, Obama, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy each made stops in the Coastal Bend in a hotly contested Democratic primary. This year, the candidates have concentrated on a handful of swing states.
To some extent, it will be a referendum on national health care.
"That will probably be the largest policy implication of the electors' choice," said Joseph Jozwiak, professor of political science at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi.
While voters could get overwhelmed this year, there are arguments in favor of the combined federal, state and local elections. It can save cash-strapped governments — especially small towns — a big expense on staff time, equipment and supplies. And pairing small local races with a big presidential election could entice voters who might not otherwise show up just for a school board or city council race.
"I hope they vote on the city races," Bezdek said. "I hope they vote on everything. We keep piling different elections onto the general election. As a political analyst we don't know what the impact of that is. At some point, we've just got too much on the ballot."
The predicament is a vestige of post-Reconstruction changes in the structure of Texas government, Bezdek said. While the nation votes for a commander-in-chief who then selects a cabinet and periodically appoints judges, Texans vote on multiple "cabinet" positions — comptroller, railroad commissioners, agriculture commissioner, attorney general — plus the judiciary and more. Though not all are on this November's ballot, it is still one of the longest ballots in Nueces County history, if not the longest, Bezdek said.
"A lot of people are going to say, 'Wow, I voted on enough races. This is it. I'm outta here,'" he said. "Because I suspect we're going to have long lines."

26C3: WikiLeaks to Conquer Iceland
The whistleblower project, protected by a cascade of tor servers, over the last months has made public a series of explosive documents. Now it wants to take a step further and plans a technical data model state in the north Atlantic.
The WikiLeaks project has assembled the secret toll collect contracts, the so-called field reports from Kunduz covering the controversial bombardment of the tanker convey in Afghanistan, the volatile plan of the European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) and the comprehensive collection of pager messages before and after the tragic events of September 11, 2001. It wants to publicize documents and events that would normally not get much attention because it might make it legally or politically difficult to publicize them. WikiLeaks provides technical and legal assistance for just these purposes. The project is working on a handbook "to peruse" and plans to send it to parliamentarians, for example.
Julian Assange and Daniel Schmitt, who represented WikiLeaks at the 26th Chaos Communication Congress (26C3) in Berlin, announced a series of new offerings. Says Assange, "Many of the public documents are too long or complicated to be picked up by the media. That's why we're providing journalists with a few documents exclusively for a limited time to give them more value."
However, the project wants to go one step further. "After many Iceland banks went bankrupt, we can present a document that lists insiders that could have brought their sheep to the fold in time," explains Schmitt. "Suddenly many Icelanders began to listen." As a result, the WikiLeaks team developed the plan to introduce a few bills into the Iceland parliament to make Iceland into a model technical data state, "a kind of Swiss for bits." This would best occur before Iceland joined the European Union, which it plans to do sometime in the future. In this way the activists want to gather "the best data protection, journalistic rights and freedom guarantees into law."

Are you holding back your own business? If so, here's the solution
Integrators are about making the visionary's vision a reality. They are tactical thinkers and focus on executing the business plan that will make the big picture happen. They excel at leading, managing and holding people accountable. They are clear communicators who get a charge out of designing and documenting processes, coaching people, filling the company with the right people and solving sticky problems. They are the glue that holds everything together.
The problem
Problems arise in growing companies when the founding entrepreneur, who is usually a visionary, also tries to be the integrator. Most visionaries simply are not good at day-to-day management and accountability. Some visionaries know they aren't integrators, but many of them don't. Some fancy themselves good at several jobs, so they attempt to lead the company, lead sales, have a say in operations and maybe even oversee finance. These folks find themselves stretched paper-thin, often micromanaging line employees and not truly excelling at anything.
When this happens, many entrepreneurs find themselves in a special kind of hell – they are visionaries to the core, and secretly (or openly) detest functioning as an integrator. This also puts the rest of the employees in a special kind of hell – serving under the leadership of a person who is unable to lead in a way they can latch on and relate to.
The irony is that when a visionary works himself to a frazzle because he feels the company's success depends on his intimate involvement in every detail, he actually becomes an obstacle to greater success. To be effective, a visionary must stay fully engaged, but migrate into a clearly defined set of roles suited to his big-picture abilities and delegate things that fall outside this area to someone who excels there.

Regional media on Friday aired clippings of women students returning from a party, painting them as "drunk" and "half-naked", accompanied by moralistic commentaries on pub culture
News reports on Friday by vernacular media channels depicting a few women students returning from a party as "drunk" and "half-naked" have evoked strong protests from the latter. The students are mulling the option of filing cases against channels and reporters citing defamation, criminal intimidation and sexual harassment.
Speaking to The Hindu, the students from Nalsar Law University said they had been stalked, harassed and videographed by persons from the channels on Thursday night, when they were returning from a farewell party thrown by their juniors.
The footage went viral on Friday, with many channels repeatedly playing the clip, accompanied by critical commentary about pub culture. The news also appeared in a few vernacular newspapers, with observations about women getting drunk and creating ruckus on roads.
The students contend that they were just a bunch of partygoers, whom the media targeted and videographed without permission, and caused slander by circulating the footage.
"We were filing out of the pub by 11 p.m.ting into the cabs, when we noticed a person videographing us girls on a mobile phone. ple around including bouncers from the pub, so We objected and asked him to delete the footage. He refused to do so. When we demanded that he hand over the mobile phone, he gave us another one that didn't have any footage. After getting into the cab and going a little further, we decided to return as many of our friends were still near the pubturn the mobile. Upon returning, we noticed that a huge crowd had gathered, along with a media person and camera," Adwitiya Kareng Das, a student from the group, said.
Information reached the cops who arrived at the place. Before the situation could be explained to them, the cameraman began to shoot the women.
'Relentless harassment'
"The media persons were relentlessly chasing us, and even after getting into the cab, and hiding my face, they harassed me by pursuing with their cameras. They never let us explain what had happened before they arrived," Sravanthi (name changed), a final year student of law said. Later, the footage was edited to resemble a violent face-off.
On Friday, the students were shocked to see story playing out on TV. ries portraying them as drunk, and indecently dressed. Some footage even partly blurred the girls' images creating the misconception that they were moving about topless. The incident was wrongly reported by media as past midnight, they alleged.
"The whole episode was misrepresented and made to look like a moral issue. They tried to engineer social opinion against using the footage," Sravanthi says.
Repeated calls to the channels seeking to stop the telecast of footage did not yield any results, Adwitiya says.

I have 2 leaking GPR dampers - is it possible to service them myself?
Anyone else done this and was it successful?
I don't think there is a rebuild kit for the GPR's i.e. seals but they are all plain O rings.
Sending both of them off is a bit $$$ (£££) for some-one else to replace the orings.
Both of the dampers are a few yesrs old but I'm a bit miffed they are both leaking.
Mate had one leaking - he contacted them, not sure of the exact details but I am pretty sure they replaced it with a new one.
I've rebuilt my GPR damper a couple of times. They are pretty simple and straight forward. Just find the right size o-ring and you're good to go. Refilling the unit with oil is the most time consuming part. Add oil slowly and move the lever back and forth to work all the air bubbles out.
Also, changing oil viscosity just a little lighter or heavier makes a big difference in performance!
Don't GPR's have a lifetime warranty?
I only owned one but I thought it did. ( I don't use any stabalizers anymore )
Yeah we get screwed over here (UK) a service is £55 ($80-90) in the US it's $25.
I've never seen any mention of a first service free so I don't think we get that either.
Better get the O ring kit out - I've tried once to repair one damper but it's still leakign though may be from the adjuster shaft - i did not replace the O rings on that i did not think it would leak there.
It was a pain to get all the air out - I was going to try and submerge the unit in oil and re-assemble it should hopefully be easier.
possible DIY unless too late
My GPR is leaking yet again, after two free redos by GPR after I paid for service (with me paying the shipping so not really free). Unit lasted two years before it leaked. Now it leaks on day one of riding after getting it back. Each
Here are two items that may help anyone else that comes across this thread.
Picture of a GPR disassembled and barebones instructions. I'm less nervous about trying the service myself. I figured I would open the top and have springs flying everywhere ...
GPR refill and bleeding instructions that they used to have on their site. I saved a copy way back when and now it isn't posted anymore. So here is my copy of their document:
Thanks Malsin for the useful instructions. It looks fairly simple. Anybody found a good source for the o-rings?
Anyone that's done this know what the size of all the little allen screws is? I am in need of re-oringing mine, but none of my metric or sae allen wrenches fit.
Any help is appreciated.
I will have to try again - I'll try to take some pics and let you know O ring sizes etc.
Re the allen bolts all I know is it's a U.S size and was standard in a small set of allen heads I got in the UK so should be very easy to find in the U.S. Also re the O rings a $10 O ring kit with say 20-30 different sizes should have all you need.
Regarding the re-filling and getting air out all I do is fill as much as possible and re-assemble then turn the unit upside down, remove the 2 small silver cross head screws and pour a bit of oil in each then move the damper arm slowly left to right adding oil at each screwhead for 20min and all teh air should be out. Check by setting the damping to max and moving the arm by hand left to right - you should feel no free play in the arm around the centre.
did mail gpr directly
Okay, it is easy diy but they don't sell the o ring kit, just measure the seize with a calipher,
all standard seize, fill oil with a syringe, good examples on you tube how to do it
got mine gpr 4v dirt 2 years and start leakingwill take it apart and post the seize

Unlike other star sons, Arjun Kapoor bagged his first film 'Ishaqzaade' via social networkRead More »from How Arjun Kapoor bagged 'Ishaqzaade'
Being a star kid, you are bound to get attention and a proper launchpad in Bollywood. But for Arjun Kapoor, his filmi connections and being Boney Kapoor's son didn't come handy. Infact, Arjun bagged his debut film like most debutants nowadays- through social network.
It is surprising that the young actor didn't use his filmy connection to bag a role or ask his director father to launch him in a film. It was Yash Chopra's casting director Shanoo Sharma who came across Arjun's profile on Facebook and immediately short listed him. "Shanoo had no idea that he was Boney Kapoor's son. After meeting Arjun, they were very sure that Arjun can very well fit into the part of a rustic and rebellious youth. After seeing his audition tapes, everyone at YashRaj was convinced that he fitted the part to the T," says a source.

Why was Kiran Rao miffed?By Sayoni Sinha | Yahoo India Movies – Mon 9 Apr, 2012 2:28 PM IST
Kiran Rao was upset when she came to know about 'behind the scenes' shoot at her house but later relented when Aamir intervened
Being a private person, Kiran Rao wasn't very kicked with the idea of letting the crew of Aamir Khan's debut TV showcase her house. Being a hands-on father Aamir has been working out of home, ever since his son Azad was born. So, all his pre-production work and research meetings have been happening at his residence.
Like every show, the crew wanted to make a video of behind the scenes and shoot at his house. They wanted to show Aamir working on the show and discussing concepts. Since Aamir has put all his future projects on hold so that he can fully concentrate on the show, the crew decided to record those moments. But when Kiran Rao came to know of this, she was very peeved. "Kiran is a very private person and doesn't want to show her house on national TV," says a source

Bradley Handwerger / WWLTV.com Sports Reporter
Email: email@example.com | Twitter: @wwltvsports
METAIRIE, La. Darren Sproles turned to head up the field, wide open space the only thing in between the New Orleans Saints running back and the end zone.
Only, he did it the same time the ball arrived at his fingers from quarterback Drew Brees.
The end result?
A rare drop from the consistently clutch running back, a mistake that he went over in mind against and again and one that played a part in the Saints losing at Green Bay this past Sunday.
'I lost some sleep over that play, but I made a point to go out after practice just to catch a little bit to get my confidence up but I'm fine now,' Sproles said Wednesday. 'It killed me, but it's in the past now. I've just got to go out and make another play.'
Indeed, Brees and Sproles spent time after practice running the same play over and over. The quarterback made sure to add that each time they ran it, the pass was completed.
He took the play personally.
'Oh yeah, especially when I feel like I let my team down,' Sproles said. 'That messed with me though, you know what I'm saying, so I spent a little time after practice getting it right. ... It was a game-changer. If I would have just caught it, we had the first down and then we could have run a little more time out of it.'
One player who expects Sproles to bounce back is Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, who played with the running back before he came to New Orleans.
And Rivers was effusive in his praise of Sproles.
'He's going to bounce back huge,' Rivers said. 'One thing about Darren is he cares as much or more than anybody in that locker room. He's so dependable. Anytime he was to have a negative play when he was here, which is very rare and I'm sure it has been there, he's the kind of guy that's on to the next play. As strong as tough as he is physically, he is the same way mentally.'
Sproles was all but bottled up against the Packers, finishing with just 64 total yards on offense and 95 yards on kick returns. He had a critical fumble on a kick return, one that was recovered by Green Bay but he was wrongly ruled down by contact and the Packers couldn't challenge.
In other words, Sunday wasn't one of his better days as a Saints player.
Still, Brees isn't concerned with any of that.
'He's a go-to guy in all situations, especially critical situations,' Brees said. 'It doesn't change my opinion about him one bit, but just to you know about the type of guy he is, he cares a lot and he wants to be that guy and he is that guy.'

The attorney for the Army psychiatrist accused of going on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood said Monday he wants his client's mental evaluation delayed citing a potential conflict of interest with the exam panel. A three-member board of military mental health professionals will determine whether Maj. Nidal Hasan is competent to stand trial which left 13 dead and dozens wounded last year Hasan's attorney John Galligan says one panel member taught at the medical school Hasan attended

Shooting at Ft. Hood
Medical source information suggests that Army Major Nidal Malik Hassan, who was shot after opening fire at Ft.Hood in Killeen, Texas on Thursday, is a psychiatrist who worked at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington until leaving for Ft. Hood. According to the Virginia Board of Medicine, he finished his residency at Walter Reed in 2007 and then did a Fellowship in "Disaster and Preventive Psychiatry" in 2009. He has a number of board certifications. Texas Senator Kay bailey Hutchinson says she was told Hasan was upset about being deployed to Iraq and the military has released a statement saying they're not sure about the motive, but they don't believe political terrorism was involved.

The Hunt: Ft. Hood - Why is more important than where
Military leaders at Ft. Hood are beginning their investigation into the Nov. 5 massacre that killed 13 people. And observers want to know where Maj. Nidal Hasan was radicalized. National Security Correspondent J.J. Green speaks with Paul R. Pillar, former deputy chief of the CIA's Counterterrorism Center, who says finding out where Hasan was radicalized is not the key question.

If so,this harkens back to the old days when Fuji ran the massive lab that processed all Blacks film business in the GTA. Will check out my nearby Costco and see what's really up with this.

Lady Coyotes stay cool
BURKBURNETT — Wichita Falls High School won the very first Cool In Boomtown volleyball tournament in 2004 in Stephanie Dorsey's first year as head coach.
So it was probably only fitting that the Lady Coyotes won it again on Saturday in the year the tournament was dedicated to the memory of former WFHS assistant coach Jerry Allen.
The Lady Coyotes (3-2) went 3-0 on Saturday after winning their pool on Friday. Old High defeated Holliday, avenging a loss from Tuesday, in the final by a 25-18, 25-22 margin.
"I was proud of the girls," WFHS coach Stephanie Dorsey said. "The last three or four days they stepped up. They were talking and communicating. It took every single one of them. Every single kid on the bench played, and they were all part of the win."
As a team, the Lady Coyotes had 64 kills, 89 digs and 10 stuff-blocks in six games.
"I figured we'd go in and build confidence and have some success, but this was definitely a surprise," Dorsey said. "The girls are the ones that came together and pulled it through. I'm very proud of them."
Allen died in December. The longtime volleyball player, coach and friend in this community had served at Wichita Christian as head coach last season.
He was at Old High when today's seniors were freshmen and had worked with many more in club volleyball.
The 8th Annual Sign on Signs Cool In Boomtown tournament was dedicated to Allen and Becky Schreiber of Windthorst.
"A lot of where Wichita Falls High School volleyball is at is a credit to him," Dorsey said. "He added a lot of our program over the year.
"It was good to see Rita (Allen's wife) here and it was great to win in honor of him. We have a handful of kids who have played for him."
Schreiber started the program at Windthorst in 1978 and also later began volleyball at Archer City. She also died within the past year.
Both Allen and Schreiber had volunteered at Red River Volleyball Club, when it was formed in 1991.
Old High, which was missing one of its top defensive players, didn't need any excuses on this day as it won six straight games. The Lady Coyotes defeated Petrolia 25-6, 25-10 and then toppled Borger 25-20, 25-14 in the semifinals.
Holliday advanced to the final by defeating Levelland (25-14, 25-21), Whitesboro (25-18, 25-17) and Kennedale (27-25, 26-28, 25-17).
Rider dropped its morning match to Borger 21-25, 25-21, 25-15, but rallied to beat Petrolia and Henrietta to take the Gold Bracket consolation title.
Burkburnett defeated Iowa Park 21-25, 25-18, 27-25 and then fell in two to Kennedale, which finished third. Burk took fifth.
Vernon defeated Notre Dame in the Silver Bracket final 25-22, 26-24, while Hirschi won consolation in the Silver by beating Electra and Childress.
Ashley Washington had a big day for the Lady Huskies (3-2).
Henrietta won the 6th Annual Tony Silva sportsmanship award. It was the second time the Lady Bearcats earned that honor.
Henrietta went 2-2 on the court in a solid showing, losing only to Kennedale and Rider.

iPT 2G, no sound after water damage? Faulty jack?
I have an iPod Touch 2G which had water damage a few months ago and I was unable to fix it at the time for whatever reason. I'm an electronics engineer by the way so know my way around electronics. I decided tonight to break it up for spares but tried powering it up while out of the enclosure and lo and behold it started working!
Unfortunately I broke the digitiser taking it apart (rookie mistake I know...) so I've ordered a new digitiser and frame which should be here in a couple of weeks.
However, although it all appeared to be in good shape when I ordered the new digitiser, I have now discovered that the sound isn't working. Whether I use the onboard speakers or the headphones I get nothing. Also, in the iPod app, when I click the play icon it changes briefly to become a pause icon and then goes back to play again. No sound is emitted. I don't get any key clicks or any other system sounds either.
My thoughts are that it might be the headphone jack because I know it has some extra switches in there to sense the click switch in the headphone lead for skipping tracks and pausing/resuming music etc. Has anyone come across this sort of fault?
I've tried doing a factory reset and upgrade from 3.1.3 to 4.1.0 software but no difference.
Any advice would be most welcome - I'm so close to bringing this little machine back to life again it is frustrating to hit this problem. I don't really want to spend any more money on it though unless I have good reason to expect a new headphone jack to fix my issue.
Many thanks,
Update: Just tried it in an iPod speaker dock and I can't get any sound there either. Again it just shuts off playing before any sound has started to play. The icon goes to pause and then back to play again if you know what I mean. Grr...

I also went to the Zu ebay store looking for headphone cables, ipod LOD or other cables, didn't see either there
The discovery thread.! NEW kjk1281's take JVC XX HA-FR100X Elation iem Page 1944!! - Page 909
Gear mentioned in this thread:
I sent them a message that they should sell more of these cables. I can't find these cables on their site either. So I should get a reply.. I hope they do sell more of these. A discovery isn't a discovery unless we can share in the goodness..
Can you still help me discover an angled adapter so I can use a different cable with my SE Mad Dog?
OK, I have these 3 in my "saved for later" section of the Amazon cart (where they could sit a long time, of course): T-Peos H-200, KEF M200, and Onkyo IE HF300 (from most to least expensive). Anyone know all 3 and is able to compare/rate?
Hmmm? I fear we my have shot ourselves in the foot unintentionally. I don't think the Zu creators meant for these cables to be used for the X1 as we are using them. Their website seems to suggest building a special cable for headphones by contacting them. I don't think it was drbluenewmexico's intention, but by contacting the owner and telling him how we were using them he might have felt he was uncutting himself for a service of reterminating headphones. Going to him directly forces someone to pay a higher price for more service. Again, I hope I'm wrong, but that seems to be the only option since a few days ago there were plenty of these cables in various colors, and I'm sure that no one other than myself. DannyBai, Dsnuts, and probably waynes world bought these cable from head-fi. If I'm right, hopefully this guy will change his mind with some persuasion. If he doesn't, I guess a few of us lucked up in getting this fantastic cable and here's hoping it outlast the headphone.
Ya life expectancy is 100+ years or so it says on the paperwork with the cables. Lol.
I hope this is not the case. That is lame if they do. How can they pull these off the shelves as all these sales of these cables will do is make believers of their products. Maybe they created something a bit too good. In any case I hope they got a good explanation. Something ain't right about them all being gone all of a sudden.
I have written the owner too. So we will see what happens.
A rediscovery, not equipment but music. Strapped on my dog walking gear (Senn 650's, iPod touch, Continental amp...generally use iem's home, over or on ears out on the pooch trip), put on something off the beaten track (it is jazz, which is already off the beaten track, but an oddball record even for Jazz fans, all 10 of us). Sun Ra's Arkestra (who actually may have had as big a following in the rock world as the jazz world, often playing in small Rock venues) recording of Jazz In Silhouette, from 1958, is a fabulous recording (musically, sonically it is a bit lean), leaning to bop and some swing feel, with a tiny bit of "space" feel here and there. Sun Ra's recordings are wildly variable, ranging from 1920's big band swing to screaming free jazz and chants of "space is the place". He did come from Jupiter, you know (at least that's what he told everyone). This is a fine and safe place to start if one has any interest, he must have 50+ other recordings out there.

I don't understand the reasoning behind not selling them. They definitely pulled them from ebay..Who cares if people use them for headphones instead of ipods and mp3 players. In fact all those sales are gonna do is just get us to purchase more Zu cables for our other gears get some more name recognition and such among people that are willing to spend a little more on cables. Isn't the whole purpose in selling your cables is so your name goes out to the audio world? I don't get it.
I am eager to hear what their explanation is. That is a lame duck excuse to pull an item which they had plenty of this morning.
As a brand coming into the Audiophile market, I hope they make a splash, it's not so often you find a company that does things right the first time(Onkyo or KEF are old-hands trying new things, so not the same) and I hope they keep up with these amazing cables.

If you're getting into headphone cables from them, you are looking at $179 for the cheapest model.
Unfortunately I think this is the reason why these guys pulled the cables. They probably realized these "ipod cables" come really close to what they offer for actual headphone cables. Well It ain't like there aren't others that make silver coated cables that will sound nice using your X1. I think we might have found a nice alternative. Maybe even nicer.
This might be the very first time I have to take away my trophy. How lame. I hope you Zu fellas read this thread. You all lost out on a golden opportunity is all I have to say about that. Stay tuned I have a feeling we might find out some more info..
If those Zu fellas stay silent then we are probably right in what is happening if not they have some explaining to do.
Edited by Dsnuts - 9/1/13 at 10:29pm
I'll check back regularly to see what's up. I know they have to make a living but pulling a product simply because someone found it to be good for another function is kinda lame. Kicking myself not getting a pair early now.

Our Readers' Favorite Food Discoveries of 2011
When we asked our readers to share the best ingredients they discovered in 2011, their answers ranged far and wide: Some were simple, like trying dried beans for the first time. Others were less familiar and even exotic. (Prickly ash! Sweet potato leaves! Fancy hot sauce!) And then there was one luxurious ingredient that got an extra amount of love, clocking in with more mentions than anything else — can you guess what it is? (We put it at the top of the list below.)
As we head into the holidays, it is always exciting to discover new ingredients and foods, whether for gift-giving or for the sake of trying something new. Come take a look at our readers' food discoveries from 2011.
