At higher mileages, an anti-lock brake system wheel speed sensor may wear out and illuminate the ABS warning light. It is recommended to replace the sensor with a factory part and be sure to clean all rust and debris from the mounting area because the mounting distance is critical. Failure to do so may result in the new sensor setting false trouble codes. Be sure to check the condition and runout of the front wheel bearings on the 2WD and 4WD vehicles and the CV joints on the 4WD vehicles since worn wheel bearings and/or CV joints can cause the ABS trigger rings to rub against the ABS sensors and damage them.
Problems for specific Toyota Camry years:

Repairpal verified 1996 Toyota Camry problems
Check Engine Light With Code P0770 and/or P0773
The Check Engine Light may illuminate with code P0770 and/or P0773 stored. This would indicate a fault with the 3-way lock-up solenoid which could be defective and may need replacement.
Burning Smell Due to Valve Cover Gasket Leak
The valve cover gaskets have a tendency to leak oil, especially the one near the firewall.
Check Engine Light Due to Restricted EGR System
The EGR System tends to get restricted or blocked with carbon after 100,000- 125,000 miles which will cause an emissions test failure for NOX. If the EGR system is equipped with an EGR temperature sensor it will trigger a Check Engine Light for improper EGR flow. The repair is to clean out the EGR passages and the EGR Temperature sensor. Our technicians tell this repair is pretty straight forward and takes about 1-1.5 hours. It is also wise to verify the EGR system components i.e. the Transducer, EGR Valve and VSV Solenoid at this time.
Check Engine Light Due to Failed Oxygen Sensor
The Check Engine Light may illuminate because a component of the oxygen sensor stops working. As a result the engine computer is unable to determine the proper ratio of air to fuel for the engine. Replacing the failed oxygen sensor should correct this concern.
Hesitation on Acceleration
Cars equipped with an automatic transmission might experience a hesitation when accelerating. Revised software for the on board computer is available which may correct this problem. Software revisions are commonly most helpful on newer vehicles. once the mileage builds up a worn component could cause similar problems. Whenever major transmission work in performed, the transmission software should be updated as necessary.
Check Engine Light on Due to EVAP Vapor Canister Fault
The Evaporative system may have problems with the vapor canister releasing charcoal pellets that plug the vent valve. Typically a Code P0441, P0442 and P0446 will be set. The key code is the P0446 which is a vent valve electrical failure. The proper repair is to replace the entire canister with all the valves as a unit. This is located on top of the fuel tank and is expensive. Our Technicians tell us that for awhile Toyota was covering these problems, but this may have changed. It would not hurt to call the dealer if this problem occurs to see if Toyota is still helping with these repairs.
Engine Won't Crank Due To Starter
If the vehicle will not crank over, the most common problem is the starter, which tend to fail at about 100,00-125,000 miles. Sometimes it is only the starter solenoid contacts, but often the complete starter (including solenoid) needs to be replaced.
Worn Shift Bushings Will Cause Manual Transmission to Pop Out of Gear
On vehicles with a manual transmission, worn shift bushings can cause the transmission to pop out of gear, especially when coasting down in 1st or 2nd gear. Replacing all the shift linkage bushings is pretty straight forward and not expensive and will commonly correct this concern.
"No start" Due to Pickup Coil Failure Inside Distributor
The pickup coil inside the distributor can fail and cause a no-start condition. There have also been some failures of the radio noise suppressors inside the distributor which can short out. It is recommended to replace the whole distributor with a complete genuine Toyota distributor if any of its components fail.
Loss of Power at Freeway Speeds
A loss of power on the freeway may due to an internally leaking fuel pulsation dampener. This commonly occurs on higher mileage vehicles.
Hesitation or No Start Due to Internal Distributor Fault
The ignition coil inside the distributor may fail. Our technicians tell us this may result in a hesitation on acceleration, especially when the vehicle is warming up on cold, rainy days. The pickup coils inside the distributor can also fail and cause a no-start condition. There have also been some failures of the radio noise suppressors inside the distributors, which can short out. Our technicians recommend replacing the whole distributor with a complete, genuine Toyota distributor if any of its components fail.
Replace knock sensor harness when replacing head gasket
The head gaskets are prone to leaks in as little as 60,000 miles. When the head gasket is replaced, the knock sensor harness should be replaced as well, as it can be damaged by leaky head gaskets, resulting in a serious decrease in fuel efficiency or in long term engine damage.
Brake Master Cylinder May Need Replacing at 125,000 Miles
At 125,000-150,000 miles, the Brake Master Cylinder may need replacing. When replacing the master cylinder, it is critical to adjust the brake pedal to master cylinder pushrod clearance or the brakes can drag and overheat.
Improperly Adjusted Valves May Cause Emissions Failure/Rough Idle
A rough idle and even an emissions inspection failure for high HC and CO can be caused by improperly adjusted valves. Also, exhaust valves may become to tight which can lead to valve failures. Our technicians tell us that regular valve adjustment inspections are a must.

Black Blade: Will this B.S. be required in Wyoming? And how will they prove the private sale wasn't before the law was enacted?
I believe Wyoming passed a bill saying they will not be adhering to any gun control laws passed by the fed... Since they did not enumerate the power to make that decision to the Fed as covered by the 10th Amendment. We will see how that plays out. It would be awesome.

I'm not at all surprised, they are politicians after all...
And all Politicians are lying crooks, keep this in mind at all times!
Keep in mind, in 84' the repubs folded.
In 94' they folded.
What they say & what they do are rarely the same.
Tens of thousands of FFL gun transfers a day, they cannot keep up with..
The NICS will have to hire a hundred thousand people to take the calls.
Another thing. You call, you go in their little black book, so does the purchaser.
"Registration." Get F#$Ked... I aint calling nobody.. Just be careful, if it passes, at the fun shows. That is where the commies will nail yah..
Their trying every trick in the book to get the guns out of peoples hands, before the collapse.. $$$

"Man needs but two things to survive alone in the woods. A blow up female doll and his trusty old AK-47" - Thomas Jefferson 1781
I am hearing that the "Universal Background Check" is a done deal. This means even if you want to pass a family hierloom to your kids or grandkids it will have to be registered through a FFL so the Feral Government can track it. Effectively this means "gun registration" regardless of what they say otherwise.

Its a shame these fools in DC rather than face the real problems of economics in America play with the gun control smoke screen...

John 3:16
The more they talk about guns, keeping them front page. The less we hear of the fiscal cliff we are rapidly falling over..$$
When we hit bottom of that cliff, coming soon. Then the food riots start..
D.C. don't give a damn if we all kill each other.. Their worried about their own necks...
Guns got to go before the crash.. Their trying, it is not working..
"Man needs but two things to survive alone in the woods. A blow up female doll and his trusty old AK-47" - Thomas Jefferson 1781
The food riots might start anyway. Another dry year here and there will not be any cattle coming out of Nebraska or any of the heartland states. I saw this on the news about a week ago. We may have to fry up all the politicians in the country until the draught is over. So what if cannabilism is illegal, everything the politicians do is too.
Count on Joe Biteme to be in there to threaten any Dems leaning pro-gun. Run primary candidates against them or have BO campaign for their reelection.

This morning, I was walking my children down the driveway for their very last day of the school year. My Son went to the mailbox and handed me a stack of envelopes. On the very top was the news letter for the Preeclampsia foundation. I had wondered at first if it were only a coinincidence, perhaps this news letter was sent to all women, or perhaps I was meant to receive it today. Because only moments before my Son handed me the mail, I looked at my little girl, proud, that today would be her last day of Kindergarten, and I looked up to the sky with a grateful smile, because I remember the very day I almost lost her.
On October 22, 2005, I was rushed to the hospital in the back of an ambulance. I was seven and half months pregnant with my third child. I had been a reading a story on the couch with my little boy around 1 pm, I was getting him ready to take a nap. As his little eyes started to close, I gently slid off the couch not to bother him, and as I quietly stood to my feet, I felt a cush of blood start to flow. I paused for a moment with a frigtened feeling, and put my hands inside of my pants, hoping that there would be no blood, but there was and it kept flowing. That is when I called my husband at work, shaking, telling him something was wrong. I then called 911. An ambulance arrived about 15 minutes later. My Home being way out in the country was a long ride for an emergency response, unfortunatly.
I could tell even the paramedics were nervous, they had never had an experience like me. I was immediatly loaded into the back of the ambulance. I could hear the conversation going on over the radio with the hospital, the paramedics telling them my blood pressure was 210/180, I was beginning to have contractions and was in horrible pain. I stared out the back window as I heard the sirens on the ambulance, I was begging, "Please God, do not take my baby" and I repeated it over and over the entire fourty five minute ride to the nearest hospital. I could not feel any movement inside of my stomach. I was continuing to bleed, and I could see the outline of my baby girl through my shrunken stomach.
When we finally arrived at the hospital, i was told that I had lost my Baby, and that i would need to be rushed into emergency surgery because I had lost a lot of blood, and now they were going to try and save my life. I was still pleadng with "God" to save my baby, as I felt my eyes go to sleep. When I awoke, the first words out of my mouth were, "Where is my Baby, is she alive?"
The nurse told me my baby was alive, and that she is with the Doctor as she layed me back down on the pillow. That was all I needed to hear, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes again.
A month prior to the birth, I had been having a few complications in my pregancy that I had reported to my doctor. My left arm would go numb quite often, and I had been more swollen than I had with my other Children, Some days I would find myself being lightheaded and dizzy, even seeing spots in my eyes. My blood pressure had even been higer than usual. I was 140/90, which was pretty high for me, because my average was usually 120/70. I was told by my doctor that it was not too unusual for a pregant women to have higher blood pressure, and that I should not be worried. he said all of my symptoms were normal. I felt like something was wrong, but I also felt relieved and trusted my doctor. I wanted to be that glowing pregnant woman, a strong woman that could easily handle a normal pregnancy. I still to this day find myself being regrettful for not being more persistent, because I knew something was not right.
Two days had passed in the hospital and I was unable to see my Baby, she was in an incubator and I could barely move, or keep my eyes open. I was very weak from all of the blood I had lost, but inbetween my coherency i would hear doctors coming into the room, talking to my family about me and and my Baby Girl. She was having a lot seizures and they were not sure she would survive, and that she would be brain damaged because of her time without any oxegen. I remeber laying there not feeling worried, I knew she was alive, after what her and I had been through, I did not feel worried anymore. I could hear my family sobbing in the room, for both her and I, worried that they could loose us both. But I never felt worried, not anymore.
As the days passed, I was given a blood transfusion, and i slowly I began to regain some strength. I was finally taken to the room, to meet my little girl. She was tiny, with tubes hooked all around her in her incubator. I was not allowed to touch her, but I could open a small window and whisper in her ear. She was different looking than my other children. We are tan with dark hair and dark eyes, and there layed this little girl with a hint of reddish hair and pale skin, small and precious, evven with her eyes closed, I knew she was a strong little girl, fighting for her life, because she wanted to be here.
I was told that my baby girl was born stillborn, she was not breathing. And by law, cpr was performed on her for four minutes, on the fourth minute a young new nurse was told to quit trying to resuscitate my baby girl, But the nurse being young and new, did not want to give up, and Josephine took her first breath on the seventh minute.
I was also told later by the Doctors that I had preeclampsia, and because it went untreated I had an abruption. And that my daughter and I were both very lucky to be alive, that the survival rate was less than 5% for Mother and Child. I had no doubt that her and I were lucky to be alive, and I am grateful for it everyday, and I have often wondered why her and I were the lucky ones.
I was told that baby Josephine, would be brain damaged, and may never walk or learn to eat on her own, as the years went by she continued to have seizures, and still to this day has some odd illnesses that appear once a month, almost exactly to the day, but she still is determined to be here, and she is still a little fighter, and everyday she impresses me more and more.
She did learn to eat on her own, and now she is walking, and today she is completing her last day of school as a Kindergartner. She may not know her whole alphabet yet, but she can draw the most beautiful picture of a Butterfly I have ever seen, and she will sit and sing her own sweet songs all day long. Josephine is precious and everyday i am grateful for her. And here today, i receive this news letter, and it appears to be the perfect day to finally share her story.

|The most helpful favorable review
|The most helpful critical review
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
By Evan from USA on 2009-09-29 11:03:44Things I liked:The gun is made with alot of plastic but that makes it easier to hold for longer periods of time. The scope that came with the rifle is perfect for semi close shooting but obviously won't be great for anything longer distance. Great for beginners like me!
Things I would have changed:I'm not exactly the smallest guy out there but this gun takes quite a bit of force to pump especially when nearing the 10 pump maximum! I'm also assuming that things are a bit stiffer because the rifle is so new but after reading other reviews its sounds like this rifle in general takes alot of force to pump.
What others should know:For the price this rifle was the best deal I could find that suited my minimum requirements. Things like a higher FPS over 700, and a scope that came with the rifle and also having a brand that I trust. Overall this gun is well enough made to withstand some serious shooting over the years and I look forward to my next target practice day!

By Denise from USA on 2009-07-19 22:58:04Things I liked:Weight,price and Pyramyd Air! Trigger is pretty sensitive.The gun is very quiet.
Things I would have changed:Pellets are hard to get in properly, trigger gaurd is plastic.The gun gets hard to pump as you near ten pumps.
What others should know:Don't bother getting the scope,the power is too low to get the range needed for any advantage over open sights.Performs well for $70 but not well for $150. Hard to clean, try to not use lead pellets much.

nice tool, but constantly recharging the batteries
makes for slow progress in getting the job done.
i suppose it is poss. that i got some batteries that are not up to par and thats the problem. also the power scissors that fit the electric version of this tool do not fit the cordless tool.seems to a quality tool overall except for the batteries don't run the tool very long, while working.about 4 to 7 minutes, maybe under a load.
i think the tool designers were too conscious about the hazards of lithium batteries over heating.i have 10.8 volt lithium batts by makita that blow these batteries away.better luck next time rockwell-i am going back to makita.
Best Uses
This is the perfect 'touch up' tool to have at your side during all repairs and construction. Good power, fast cutting. I just wish it had quick blade change capabilities. Batteries seem good so far (2 weeks), but it does just stop if you attempt to cut too fast - then needs to be turned off and back on.
Best Uses
I was surprised to see how powerful,easy,and compact it was great tool

All who get "DVD Read Error (324)" go to step 5
How It works:: Well the Wii System Menu currently runs on IOS30 (for all those who understand IOS). Homebrew runs on IOS35, and basically what you are going to do today is to install a Custom IOS36 into IOS249 (Won't effect your wii)
This is a Sequel to this guide here.
NOTE: Only follow this guide if you own a copy of the game. My copy of Super Mario Sluggers got stepped on so i got it from a bay of pirates, which, again, is perfectly legal if you own the game. If you get a game without owning it first it is called PIRACY and is ILLEGAL. I am not responsible for your Illegal actions and hold NO LIABILITY.
Okay, lets begin.
You need:
Homebrew Channel
SD Card
Computer With DVD-R Burner
DVD-Rs (The higher quality the better)
Wii (Duh)
Step 1: Getting the Files
1. Get all of the files here
2. Copy the CONTENTS of the folder Copy the CONTENTS to ROOT to the ROOT of the SD Card
3. There is an ImgBurn Installer there if you want it
Step 2: Install cIOS36 Rev7
Step 1: Open the Homebrew Channel
Step 2: Click on the App labeled "Apps/cIOS Rev7/boot.dol" and then click Load
Step 3: Read the Disclaimer and Agree or Disagree
Step 4: Select WAD INSTALL
Step 5: Once it is done, select the option to restart your Wii
Step 6: You're done!
Step 3: Install DVDx
Step 1: Open The Homebrew Channel
Step 2: Select the app labeled "Apps/DVDx/boot.dol", and hit load
2a. Select "Advanced Install"
2b. For IOS, select 249 (IOS249) (You have to use the D-Pad to select 249)
2c. Hit Install
Your Done Installing DVDx
Anyone know where I can get the "SD Card Files" now that Rapidshare is shut down?
does this work on the newer wiis, (black/red/blue/newer white) because i heard an update for every wii after the first ones made it impossible to load backups from a cd, and i don't want to use sd or usb because its way too slow
And you will probably want to know where to get the backups. But get only the back ups of the games you already own otherwise it is illegal! This is the link http://adf.ly/E8nHz
please help!
here's the link:
I did this back in 2009 and I was wondering if there is an updated file or a new version. i do have some games that won't work and assume it needs to be updated.
Thank You.
Installing DVD Stub with ISO249...
Loading DVD Stub...
Fixing up TMD Signature...
Installing DVD Stub ticket...

Anyone here like Clive Barker? I liked his hellraiser movies but never read his stuff.

Anyone here like Clive Barker? I liked his hellraiser movies but never read his stuff.
I was really into his books back when he first started being published here in the states. I love his Books Of Blood collections. I stopped reading him after he went more towards the fantasy stuff. 'The Damnation Game' novel is an excellant start. His short story 'In The Hills, The Cities' is one I'll never forget! He definately took the horror genre to a whole 'nuther level! Pretty graphic stuff!
Big fan of his, although my interest has dropped off since the late 90's, and his publishing has slowed down too.
Start with "The Books of Blood" if you can find copies, then read "The Hellbound Heart" and "The Damnation Game". Then move on to "Cabal", "Weaveworld" and "The Great and Secret Show", and "Imajica".
I haven't read his more recent "Abarat" books which are aimed at the young adult market. I quite enjoyed the more recent "Mister. B. Gone", which was very interesting and fun.
I have a copy of Weaveworld, but I've never read it.
...his is a strange flavor on the old mental tongue, but I read everything he wrote-up to about the same point that FF did...then lost interest...his early stuff though is necessary reading as far as I'm concerned....
Awesome! I'll grab a copy of hellbound heart the first chance i get.
For some reason, I just can't make the leap to reading his stuff. I would love to read the Books of Blood though. The rest, just not real interested...

Alright so my computer is 64-bit and I only want to use Linux to install Steam, play Team Fortress 2 and get that penguin item but It's not working out for me. The version of Ubuntu I installed was the "Wubi.exe" which let's me use it along with Windows. But when I get it up and download the Steam .deb file, it tells me "Wrong Architecture 'i386'". What do I have to do to run Ubuntu alongside windows without using a CD/USB stick?
Open the terminal and type:

Toban finished the seven events of the men's pentathlon with 5,061 points which is just 26 points off his career-best in the event. Toban's best score of the meet came in the first event as he won the 60 meters in a time of 6.97 to earn 893 points. He then added 847 points in the long jump, 565 in the shot put and 696 in the high jump to complete day one with 3,001 points which was good for second.
Saturday's final day also saw the senior start fast as he finished fourth in the 60 meter hurdles (8.41) to pick up 881 points. He finished the meet with 431 points in the pole vault and 748 points in the 1,000 meters to earn a total of 5,061 points, 528 behind Oregon's Dakotah Keys.
Derrick Harris also competed for the Matadors and finished 14th with 4,190 points. Harris' best event of the meet was also the 60 meters as he finished second to Toban in 7.01 to earn 879 points. He then fouled on his attempts in the long jump and earned zero points which all but took him out of the running.
In the pentathlon, Hicks finished 21st with a total of 3,198 with Jealinda Mills taking 24th with 3,132 points. Shawnta Barnes also competed but did not complete all five events.

Traveling with my iPhone has been fantastic, so good in fact that I no longer feel the need to have a laptop with me every time i step onto an airplane. Over xmas and new years the wife and I traveled to the UAE and Paris. I called up ATT before the trip to make sure we both still had international service and I set up with them so that I would have data while we were in Paris. We used the phones to call friends at home a few times and we used google maps a lot in Paris. All in all the bill was only about $40 more than usual and we got a ton of use out of them from a communications standpoint. Of course the biggest benefit was having entertainment for our flights. Now, I knew battery life would be an issue seeing as how we were flying cattle class and wouldn't have in-seat power so I invested in this little gadget and was able to keep both of our iPhones in operation and only using 4 AA batteries.
Trippin' With My iPhone - Wait-a-Thon
It doesn't have 3G. It doesn't have true GPS. It doesn't have instant messaging or 3rd party apps or even cut and paste. With all it's current shortcomings, the iPhone is still a worthy "Swiss Army Knife" of smartphones that you can confidently take with you through airport security, on a plane, and throughout your trip as an excellent traveling companion. In fact, I'll boldly exclaim that the iPhone is all that I could ask for in my travels and I really put it through it's paces on a recent trip.
Read on about my trippin' with my iPhone!
Starting the Trip
Last Friday I caught a late afternoon flight from Salt Lake City to LAX. A quick check on Flightstats on my iPhone (http://mobile.flightstats.com/go/Mobile/), a neat little web app, allowed me to check on my flight status and learn my flight was running on time. The weather app confirmed that L.A. is like the movie "Groundhog Day" --- 73 degrees and sunny now and forever. Hmmmm.... I've always wanted the weather icon on my iPhone to display the current temperature instead of the perpetual 73 degrees, but if you live in L.A., the point is moot.
Sitting on the plane, I made a call home, sent a couple text messages, checked email, and buckled up for my flight. Heeding the warnings about electronic devices singlehandedly downing commercial aircraft, I activated "Airplane Mode" and tucked my iPhone away until we had reached the magical "safe altitude" where everyone can power-up their electronics without fear of aerial armageddon. Plugging in my earphones, I turned my iPhone sideways and immediately immersed myself in a gritty movie, "The Departed." Nothing like some Jack Nicholson with an ensemble of other talented actors to pass the time as I flew toward Hollywood.
Hitting the Town
Arriving at LAX, I called my friend to let him know I was at curbside and ready to roll. He picked me up and let me know he had tickets for a night of comedy at "The Comedy Store," a well-known hole-in-the-wall kind of club with big-name comics strutting their stuff and trying out new acts for the small crowd before taking their game to prime-time. Not having been there before, we used Google Maps on my iPhone to map our route and we got their just in time for the show. Fourteen comics and an excellent ab workout later, we called it a night (by the way, did you know the iPhone makes for an excellent flashlight when trying to find the bathroom in the dark?).
The next day, with my iPhone freshly charged, we hit the road and headed for the Griffith Observatory. Again, Google Maps was handy. After seeing a stellar (pun intended) show narrated by an enthusiastic-to-the-point-of-creepy volunteer, we walked around to look at all things spacey, including a moon rock (it's gray and can not be mistaken for cheese).
In keeping with the theme of space (you know how those Hollywood types are "out there"), we killed some time with our own version of "star tours" -- my iPhone was less helpful here due to no "Star Maps" available on Google Maps, but we saw some insanely-enormous houses (estates?) and did our best to satisfy our curiosity at how the "other half" lives.
We left the mansions behind and headed to the newly-renovated Graumans Egyptian Theater for a one-night showing of Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" [ed. note: RIP Arthur C. Clarke]. Although my iPhone lacks the all-seeing red eye and pleasantly hypnotic Valium-esque voice of the HAL 9000, Google Maps once again performed admirably in giving us the best route to the theater. Watching the movie, I couldn't help but be amused by the gigantic plastic push-buttons on all of the spacecraft --- man's best attempt in the 60's to envision what our interaction with machines would be like in the year 2001. I suspect the iPhone's touchscreen with all it's "pinching" and "stretching" would seem like witchcraft.
The next day, my friend and I were talking about the movie. I couldn't help but liken the monoliths to the iPhone (if you've seen the movie, you know what I mean), but apart from that, we were trying to decide if it was possible for a human, sans helmet and gloves for his space suit, could withstand zero pressure and extremely cold temperatures for even an instant. This was important, of course, because this happens in the movie and, the geeks that we are, we wanted to know if it was possible or if Stanley Kubrick was full of you-know-what. Again, my iPhone was helpful. I opened Safari and we Googled until we learned that the temperature in space is 2.725 degrees Kelvin. Hmmm... sounds kinda cold. But what does that mean to us? Try -454.765 degrees Fahrenheit (yes, that's roughly 422 degrees below freezing). We both concluded that this was the temperature where Hell must surely freeze over.
The last notable part of my trip was our visit to Amoeba Records. Wow, what a store! You can find just about ANY music CD, cassette tape, vinyl, DVD movies, even laser disc. Again, Google Maps pointed the way and, as you can see here, the iPhone makes a suitable camera in a pinch. If you are in the L.A. area and have a list of media that you can't find anywhere else, Amoeba Records may just be the place for you.
Workin' It
During my stay in L.A., I had to mix business with pleasure. I attended a work-related conference for a couple days and utilized my iPhone often during the less interesting portions of the conference: text messaging, browsing the internet with Safari, and email. The iPhone is an excellent back-up when a laptop is simply too conspicuous.
I wrapped up my trip with a flight out of John Wayne Airport for my journey home to Salt Lake. Again, Flightstats confirmed my flight was running on time. In fact, we ended up pulling away from the gate fifteen minutes EARLY. Can that happen?? I'd like to give my iPhone credit for that one, but we know it can't do everything (yet). I also checked the weather in Salt Lake City before leaving L.A. so I would know how to dress; no surprise that dressing warmer was prudent.
Flying home, I used my iPhone to listen to Phone different's Podcast 14 (nothing like Dieter's soothing voice to get you through the turbulence). I arrived in Salt Lake, listened to iTunes while I made the long walk to baggage claim, and called my wife to let her know I was at number 7 on the curb for pickup. Home in one piece -- mission accomplished.
Besides learning how cold space really is, where to get a few laughs, and my flight status, what did I really take away from this trip? Well, I learned that even without the much-anticipated 3rd party apps, true GPS, 3G and multimedia messaging, my iPhone is an exceptional traveling companion when only using the built-in apps and the available web apps that are out there. I can think of no other complete package that slips so easily into your pocket that provides as much information, functionality, and entertainment than an iPhone. I'm looking forward to the next time I can go trippin' with my iPhone.

Trippin' With My iPhone - Wait-a-Thon
Great comment, AnteL0pe. I guess it depends on the length of your flight, but I found that my shorter flight meant little impact on my iPhone battery and I made it through more than half of my movie before I was forced to shut down. :) The link for the little gadget you used isn't working, but from the sound of it, it must have fit the bill!
I was always a WM guy and and never even dreamed of getting a iPhone until 2 months ago. I can honestly say I never enjoyed using any WM device half as much as I do using my iPhone. It's got me thinking about picking up a Mac to go along with my PC... something I also said I would never do.
Now if only I could record video... great for impromptu moments.
And again I hate on the greedy, short-sighted b@stards who run the telcos in Canada and charge so much for data, I don't dare ever use my revolutionary internet device off Wi-Fi...
I'm not yet sure if the I-phone is for me. I am a bit concerned that they keep moving forward so fast that these features may have too many bugs in them.
Traveling with an I-Phone would be convenient though. It seems like these days I have to carry too many separate techno-gadgets. The I-Phone could help in that department.
If only I could get a phone that makes half my flights run 15 minutes early, and the other half on time!
And only if it truly had "the much-anticipated 3rd party apps, true GPS, 3G and multimedia messaging"
LA is a "stellar" city.
I love traveling with my iPhone. I've taken it to Europe, to South America, from coast-to-coast in the U.S. Now that iTunes has movie rentals it's even better: I can put a couple rental movies on the phone and watch those during the flights. I'm careful to top up the charge using whatever electrical outlet I can find in the terminal when changing flights, but honestly it's better than I thought. While in airplane mode there's no GSM, WiFi, or BT to burn through your battery so that helps compensate for the video use. Also love reading books using Readdle's offline feature (save as bookmarks).
The iPhone came in way handy for my trip to palm springs last month. Not only did I use the video for the plane trip to catch up on some episodes of Burn notice but I also was able to use it while on the elliptical trainer in the gym I got to use everyday time sure does fly by when you get to watch your favorite TV shows. But I was a little disappointed to not be able to play any games while on the plane.
Back in October I had a series of interview in different states, must of them were overnight stays and I decided not to carry my laptop and use the iPhone. It really fit the bill, I saved on GPS on the car rentals thanks to Google maps, keep up with email, and surf the web while listening to my music. And that was before movie rentals. Now if my trip is for a few days I don't carry my laptop. The main reason I carry my laptop is to download the pics from my camera and my sick attachment to the laptop.
love taking my phone everywhere! Hate the wired headset. Wish I could hear music etc... Through my Bluetooth headset.
The link for the little gadget you used isn't working, but from the sound of it, it must have fit the bill!
Odd, the link works from the forums, but not from the front page.
I'm not yet sure if the I-phone is for me. I am a bit concerned that they keep moving forward so fast that these features may have too many bugs in them.
Huh? What new features have been buggy? The speed of OS updates for the iPhone has been fantastic IMHO. It's been far better than either WinMo or Palm OS, both of which are horrible at releasing OS updates. It is also very telling as to how Apple thinks about updates for this device. Putting out smaller more frequent updates smacks of a well thought out plan of keeping their cats in the bag until they're fully baked and constantly giving the users something new.
PS I don't condone baking cats
PPS Except those mean ones or the ones that just hide under a bed all the time. Those cats suck.
Oh, you just had to bring up cats. I'm a dog-man with two cats in the house. Ugh. One of them has taken to projectile vomiting 3 days straight. I think he's got everything worked out now (literally and metaphorically).
I haven't noticed too much in the way of bugs with my iPhone, but if it starts projectile vomiting, I'll let you know.
The iPhone is the perfect travel tool, I agree. Having the ability to check-in at will as well as change seats. Won't be long before the iPhone will be your boarding pass. By the way, I got a coupon for a Barnes and Noble book discount, I forgot to print it up and the clerk accepted the coupon from the phone. Yesssss!
... a well thought out plan of keeping their cats in the bag until they're fully baked ...
Is the Wait-a-Thon a mixed metaphor competition now? :)
My iPhone is an indispensable tool while traveling. I've never before been able to use one device for so many task before. My pockets have become much lighter because of it.
I was wondering what neat "little gadget" Antelope was referring to... (the link just brought this page up again!) I have an iTouch which is nice for long flights, but the battery doesn't last too long!
I have kind of a random question for those of you with iPhones- has anyone used their iPhone at high altitudes? I saw on Apple's website that its maximum operating altitude is 10,000 feet (3000 meters). We were thinking of getting one for a big hike we're planning that would take us to high altitudes, and was wondering if anyone had any problems with it.
Thanks :)
This is one of those cases where I wish I had an iPhone. I don't even have an MP3 play at the moment, and it makes the morning commute seem like a trip around the world.
topolina, I reposted the link a few posts above yours.
Is the Wait-a-Thon a mixed metaphor competition now? :)
Sure! Maybe we can all get an extra entry for the every metaphor you can string together in a single sentence :P
I just gave my iPhone to my wife; I may take it back when the apps are released!
Thanks Antelope! Sorry I missed your second post... not enough sleep... :)
What are the "hidden costs" as in "roaming" charges for countries like Argentina, and Singapore? Are there any tips that anyone can offer on how not to wind up with a ridiculous phone bill. Turning off internet or automatic roaming.. any tips appreciated!
Just back from Argentina. Used my iPhone.. turned off "roaming" and "3G" until I made a call. I still wound up with a $300+ phone bill in addition to my regular phone charges for the month. The mistake I made? Make sure after your call that you hang up .. double check. For some reason the call hangs on.. make sure you disconnect. My phone stayed on even after I hit "end call".. My charges went accordingly. AT&T scam or ? Whatever, it did cost me even after all the precautions so beware.
Hello there, just doing some browsing for my Salt Lake City 4g website. Amazing the amount of information on the web. Wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but interesting page. Take care.

Strauss-Kahn, hotel worker settle suit over alleged attackBy RUSS BUETTNER
The New York Times | December 11,2012AP PHOTO
Nafissatou Diallo, center, who claims she was sexually assaulted by former International Monetary Fund leader Dominique Strauss-Kahn, exits a Bronx courthouse after the case was settled Monday in New York.NEW YORK The former French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn and the hotel housekeeper who accused him of sexually assaulting her last year have agreed to settle her lawsuit stemming from their sexual encounter, a judge said on Monday.
The settlement, whose terms were not disclosed, was announced at a hearing in State Supreme Court in the Bronx, eight long miles from the headline-grabbing cases genesis: a 28th-floor suite at the Sofitel hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
Justice Douglas E. McKeon entered the courtroom at 2:15 p.m., and said a deal had been finalized in his presence about 10 minutes earlier. Both sides agreed that the settlement would be confidential.
The housekeeper, Nafissatou Diallo, who was at the hearing and went public with her identity last year, said afterward: I thank everyone all over the world and everyone at the court. God bless you all.
Strauss-Kahn, who was not in court, was arrested in May 2011 after Diallo told detectives that he had sexually assaulted her in his suite. Strauss-Kahn was indicted on charges including attempted rape, sexual abuse, criminal sexual act, unlawful imprisonment and forcible touching.
The arrest threw Strauss-Kahns career in turmoil: He resigned his post as head of the International Monetary Fund in disgrace and his rumored candidacy for the French presidency was abandoned before it could begin. He was first held in jail without bail, and won his release to house arrest only under extraordinary conditions.
But the criminal case began to crumble when questions of Diallos credibility convinced the Manhattan district attorneys office that it could not reasonably persuade a jury to trust her account. The case was dismissed in August 2011; court papers at the time described Diallo, an immigrant from Guinea, as having been persistently, and at times inexplicably, untruthful in describing matters of both great and small significance.
But by then, Diallo had filed her civil suit in the Bronx, where she lives.
Strauss-Kahn has said the sex with Diallo was consensual, though in a French television interview after the criminal case was dismissed, he acknowledged that the encounter was an error and a moral failure that he would forever regret.MORE IN Wire NewsTORONTO Full StoryCENTENNIAL, Colo.

In the next week to 10 days members of the Class of 2013 will take a final stroll across their high school campuses. And then, in one final short stroll across a stage to receiver their diploma and with a flip of the tassel they will be high school graduates.
It is a scene that is repeated hundreds of thousands of times each year and lifelong friends and teammates go their separate ways.
I graduated from high school on May 29, 1976, which was 37 years ago today and I still recall those feelings of youthful excitement and, yes, fear.
I believe each of us want to leave a legacy of some sort at our different stops along the way. The unspoken desire to have that legacy is what drives some students in sports, others in the arts and many to be the best they can academically.
The best of the best of those students excel in multiple areas as they shine on in academics and athletics while still finding time to reach out and mentor elementary and middle school students through their church or some civic organization. It's hard not to admire these young men and women that do so many things well.
For other students just being a part of the team is their greatest legacy. Let's face it, some of us aren't designed for what the world considers greatness in sports, the arts or academics.
But just because a student can't be the leading man in the school play doesn't mean his part in helping build the sets is any less important to the play.
My own high school athletic experience was one of being a part of the team. I was a third-teamer on the Gulf Breeze High School football team and one of the worst 2-milers in the state the one year I ran track. But even as I struggled athletically I was a part of something that was bigger than myself.
I still remember the games we won, and even more the games we lost. I can't tell you the scores of most of those games, but I still remember the high of winning and the low of coming up short.
Being a high school athlete taught me how to push myself in ways I never imagined. And those lessons I learned so many years ago continue to guide me and will do so until the day I die.
It is easy to see the greatness in the star athletes and performers, but often the grace and courage of the third-team player is overlooked or forgotten.
I wish I could get to know every athlete I cover and tell every story. I'm sure there are a lot of young men and women that, as I did, played simply for the joy of being a part of the team and the love of the game.
My wish for all of those young men and women is that the friendships forged in practice and competition, and the lesson learned as a high school athlete will continue to push and inspire you the rest of your lives.
Congratulations to the Class of 2013 for a job well done.

- The effects of local randomness in the adversarial queueing model (2008)
- We study the effect of randomness in the adversarial queueing model. All proofs of instability for deterministic queueing strategies exploit a finespun strategy of insertions by an adversary. If the local queueing decisions in the network are subject to randomness, it is far from obvious, that an adversary can still trick the network into instability. We show that uniform queueing is unstable even against an oblivious adversary. Consequently, randomizing the queueing decisions made to operate a network is not in itself a suitable fix for poor network performances due to packet pileups.

Matt Riddle headed to Bellator MMA after Legacy FC contract buyout - MMAmania.com
nstead of Legacy Fighting Championship, recent UFC fighter Matthew Riddle instead will be heading to Bellator MMA.
Legacy FC promoter Mick Maynard confirmed the news with MMAjunkie.com (UFC blog for UFC news, UFC rumors, fighter interviews and event previews/recaps) following an initial report from AXS TV's "Inside MMA" on Friday.
"It was a deal I couldn't refuse, and it suited our long-term plans better, to be honest," Maynard told MMAjunkie.com.
Bellator hasn't made a formal announcement.
Riddle (7-3) was scheduled to fight July 19 fight at Legacy FC 21, where he was slated to fight fellow welterweight Artenas Young (9-5). There's no word on a possible replacement.
Riddle most recently fought in February, where he earned a split-decision win over Che Mills at UFC on FUEL TV 7. Afterward, Riddle (who is a licensed medical marijuana user in Nevada) tested positive for marijuana metabolites. It was his second such result, and the UFC elected to release him from his contract.
Riddle has spent his entire pro career with the UFC following a stint on "The Ultimate Fighter 7." Riddle came to the show with no professional experience but ultimately fought 12 times in the octagon and had won four consecutive fights before his release, though two were overturned to no-contests following the failed drug tests

Latino bashers, I introduce you to Carlos Arredondo
An emergency responder and volunteers, including Carlos Arredondo in the cowboy hat, push Jeff Bauman in a wheel chair after he was injured in an explosion near the finish line of the Boston Marathon Monday, April 15, 2013 in Boston. At least three people were killed, including an 8-year-old boy, and more than 170 were wounded when two bombs blew up seconds apart. (AP Photo/Charles Krupa)
Hey, white Anglo guy.
Not all of you. Just the one who keeps sending comments to my computer about anything negative done by anyone with a Latino name.
I'm sure you must have seen them. If there's a news story about a drive-by shooting and there's a suspect named Guillermo, this guy writes a response like "What do you expect from them?" He, of course, ignores the fact that the victim's name is Ricardo.
It doesn't matter what the story is, either -- crime, a foreclosure, a traffic accident -- he calls attention that some person with a Latino name has failed.
Well, white Anglo guy, here's one of those names I'd like you to remember. In fact, I'd like you to find him on the Internet. His name is Carlos Arredondo.
He's fairly easy to find among the street interviews from Boston on Monday. He's the one covered in the blood of the casualties he tried to save. The American flag he's holding is bloody too. Carlos had to use it as a tourniquet working for the Red Cross.
I don't know whether Carlos Arredondo is an American citizen, but I do know he's a "h�roe." That's Spanish for hero!
I'm Pat McMahon.

Rated 5 out of 5�by southernbele Adorable on and off the court! I love this dress! It runs on the large side, so if you're on the fence about which size to order go smaller. Originally I ordered a small, but had to return it for the XS. I'm so happy with this dress and received many compliments when I wore it. The price can't be beat!! July 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by danilmnop One Hot Number! I originally bought the other pink leopard print dress in a size L & I love it but it's a little shapeless so when I ordered this dress I ordered a Medium & WOW!

Facebook's busted, taking the web down with it
Looks like Facebook Connect has gone a crapper, and sadly it seems to be taking a lot of the internet down with it. If you're having trouble getting to where you want to go, logging out of Facebook seems to sort things out again. Not much else is known at this point, other than maybe being dependent on single-point-of-failure networks isn't a great idea. Hopefully they fix this up quickly.
Meanwhile, let us know if you're having trouble, and when/if things start working again.

Facebook's busted, taking the web down with it
No kidding! Facebook Connect, along with other such services, are a horrible idea. They are practically teaching people to become victims of phishing attacks.
Security rule #1: NEVER log into anything, other than by going directly to it yourself (not via a link or popup).
Yet, forums and sites all over the Net are collecting Facebook and Twitter login credentials. Bad idea.

15 June 2012
The Shadow Equalities Minister Kate Green today commended Stonewall for its work on employment policy, hailing a 'ground-breaking transformation in social attitudes' towards lesbian, gay and bisexual staff. Ms Green was speaking at Stonewall's Workplace Conference in Manchester, where the charity launched its 2013 Workplace Equality Index. The Index, which is now online and is free to enter for all employers, forms the basis of the annual list of Britain's Top 100 gay-friendly employers.
During her opening speech Ms Green said: 'The pipeline to employment – schools – is a huge challenge and I commend Stonewall for all their work here.' Ms Green added that employers would benefit from embracing diversity. 'The moral case is also the business case,' she said. 'Employers who put themselves out as open to all talent will perform best.'
The Stonewall Workplace Conference, supported by Barclays, gave 120 delegates from every sector of Britain's economy a chance to hear from speakers including the Shadow Equalities Minister, University of Salford's Vice Chancellor Professor Martin Hall, and Barclays Global Head of Equity Operations Richard Seeley.
Stonewall Director of Workplace Colleen Humphrey said: 'Diversity is vital for businesses to succeed, particularly when the economic climate is tough. Britain's 1.7 million lesbian, gay and bisexual staff look for employers who do more than just "tolerate" them. Organisations attending today's Workplace Conference send a clear message to gay staff and potential recruits that they respect their contribution and talent.'
Stonewall works with over 600 employers throughout Britain, who have 10 million staff worldwide, through its Diversity Champions programme.
During office hours please call: 020 7593 1856 or outside office hours on 07985 439 660.

a man from somewhere
I can only imagine that Douthat is here buying into his own reputation a little too much. You'll have read many, many times how smart and nice Douthat is. He can't hold a candle to the master, of course, but it's a truism that he is smart and nice and reasonable and whatever else fellow. I'm sure he is, too. It's just that this has nothing to do with partisanship, or with being correct on any particular issue, although that fact is always lost in this context, I'm afraid.
I'm never a big fan of when people play politics by pretending not to play.

'showily independent' is right. i got the bodily shivers reading some of his recent posts -- even though i think ww's prose style is luminous --- the smugness you could put a value to with a geiger counter, the rationalist's abstention from anything humanly material in the name of its invisibility to his logic
- March 3, 2011 at 2:03 PM
Similarities between the Tea Party and union protests are seen by "showily independent libertarians" too, not just partisans: http://www.willwilkinson.net/flybottle/2011/02/23/tea-party-local-3624/

That's what I'm referring to-- I expect false equivalences from Wilkinson, but he at least has some credibility to be seen as coming from outside of partisanship. Douthat is a partisan Republican.
- March 4, 2011 at 9:28 AM
I see what you mean. I think it's more likely that Douthat sees himself as strengthening his bipartisan credibility here. If you see the bipartisan take on this as equivalence (although I think exact equivalence is too high a bar to set for useful comparisons, but I'll use you're language here for the sake of argument) then one is showing bipartisanship by taking that stance. If one sees the bipartisan position as non-equivalence, then you need to have established bipartisanship cred to make such a claim.
- March 4, 2011 at 9:53 AM
I'd also add that what you'd expect a partisan Republican to say is that the Tea Party was legitimate/peaceful/grass roots, and the union protesters are violent/staged/or something else bad.
I haven't caught Fox News since these protests, but I'd venture that is a very popular position there.

Hmm true, maybe I am operating under the media bubble mentality here.

Students complete career readiness programBy LISA RATHKE
The Associated Press | March 28,2013MONTPELIER — At just 15, Shaylee Martin knows she wants to become a preschool teacher. Taylor Beaudet, 16, is interested in graphic design. And Dylan Martin, 17, a senior, plans to be a truck driver after high school.
They are among 11 Williamstown High School students who have completed a 15-week pilot program run by their school and the Community College of Vermont to get them ready for work or college after high school. The school was among six in Vermont that were awarded grants in the fall of 2011 to engage in innovative learning.
During the fall and winter, the Williamstown students learned how to put together resumes and an online portfolio of themselves and worked on computer, speaking and collaboration skills. They took tests to assess their achievements in reading and math. And they did some of that outside of school, at Community College on Vermont.
"We weren't just stuck in the classroom five days a week," Martin said. "We actually got to go to CCV and try different things."
On Thursday, Gov. Peter Shumlin presented them with the Governor's Career Ready Certificates at the Statehouse. Later they met with legislators to talk about what they've learned.
Beadet said she and some other students impressed perspective employers at a technology job fair in Winooski when they handed out their resumes for possible summer internships.
"They were impressed with the resumes because they hadn't seen many kids actually had resumes with them," she said. She doesn't have job experience to list but can tell potential employers what she's interested in and good at.
The program is part of a move to find different ways to engage kids in their learning, said Williamstown High School Principal Scott Lang.
"We're a rural, pretty poor community with not a lot of families who are educated. So for many of our kids it's a first experience," he said.
The Legislature is considering a bill that would combine and expand secondary school programs including dual enrollment and early college to increase the number of students completing school and help prepare them for life after high school.
"It offers a lot of different choices for kids. It keeps them engaged," said Johannah Donovan, chairwoman of the House Education Committee. "Oftentimes it gets these kids working toward a future and they actually have concrete plans."MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

Jenna Dewan-Tatum Reveals Her Growing Baby Bump in a Bikini
Soon after their romantic stroll on the beach, parents-to-be Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum did away with their cover-ups for some fun in the sun in St. Barts!
After the couple announced on Dec. 17 that they're expecting their first child, Jenna showed off her growing baby bump for the first time on Dec. 29 while on vacation, wearing in an adorable peach-colored bikini top with a shirt tied around her waist. Next to her is, of course, the Sexiest Man Alive. Talk about having some hot parents.
We're ranking this photo as our second favorite of the expecting couple, second only to the adorable photo Channing tweeted out on Christmas Day, where he's seen cradling his baby-to-be. He's a DILF if we've ever seen one!
