Severe weather conditions, accidents and numerous unpredictable situations can create power outages.
Rocky Mountain Power encourages Carbon County residents to prepare for potential disruptions of electrical services.
"Just as our crews are prepared to respond to outages, we ask our customers to be prepared as well to help ensure the safety and well-being of their families," said Mike Felice, Rocky Mountain Power safety director.
The company urges residents to assemble emergency preparedness kits. Recommended items include flashlights, non-perishable foods, manual can openers, bottled water, blankets, battery-operated radios and clocks along with extra batteries.
If a household member is on life support, people should have a backup system and plan of action for an outage, said Felice.
During a power outage, the company advises residents to:
Check fuses and circuit breakers. If the power failure is not caused inside the home or business, customers should report the outage by calling toll free at 1-877-548-3768.
Refrain from opening refrigerators and freezers as much as possible. The appliances will keep food and perishables inside cold for a longer period of time if not opened.
Preserve body heat by wearing multiple layers of clothing. Add hats and blankets. Placing blankets or towels around windows and doors will help keep heat inside.
Never use kerosene or propane heaters without proper ventilation. The heaters create dangerous fumes.
Never use charcoal inside houses or garages.
Properly wire generators for the home or business. Never connect a generator directly to the main fuse box or circuit panel. It can create a dangerous backfeed hazard for line crews.
Properly ventilate a portable generator. Gasoline-powered generators produce carbon monoxide.
Protect pipes during freezing weather by wrapping with insulation. Leave faucets dripping so water will not freeze.
Turn on the porch lights when power is back in service. After crews complete repairs, they patrol the area of the power failure to see if lights are on.
Power lines carry high voltage electricity that can cause serious injury or death if you get too close. Storms and accidents occasionally cause downed lines, presenting potentially dangerous situations.
"Staying away from downed power lines, acting quickly to keep others out of the area and immediately notifying Rocky Mountain Power or emergency responders can prevent serious injury and save lives," said Felice.
All downed lines should be reported to the company toll-free at 1-888-221-7070.
In addition, local residents should:
Stay away from all downed power and utility lines. Even if the lines are not sparking, they could still be electrified and extremely dangerous.
Never touch a person or object that is touching a power line. Call 911 immediately if someone is in contact with a live power line or has been injured by electrical contact.
Never drive over downed power lines.
If a power line falls across an occupied vehicle, drivers and passengers should stay inside and wait for emergency personnel to cut the power.
People should warn others to stay away from the vehicle.
If the car or truck catches on fire and people must exit the vehicle, they should jump with feet together and land as far away from the vehicle as possible. They should hop with both feet touching for at least 30 feet. People should never touch the car and the ground at the same time.

Vic Bondi gave us a heads up on some YouTube videos featuring the Articles of Faith songs he played with members of Pegboy in Chicago on 11/15. Vic's current band Report Suspicious Activity played a few shows last weekend, including a show in Chicago that featured a special set of AOF songs. We're embedding their performance of "What We Want is Free." You can find more videos from that show here (courtesy of user ShackIeMeNot).

If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still questions Jello Biafra's ability to bring about change to this country, today is your answer.
In his 1979 San Francisco mayoral campaign, Jello pledged to make businessmen wear clown suits within city limits. Right about now might be a good time to reconsider his proposal. Watch out, Hank Paulson! Gird your loins, Wall Street! Treasury Secretary Jello Biafra has a nice ring to it, no?
Well, actually, the clowns in the photo are not businessmen. They're real clowns from the Big Apple Circus invited to ring the opening bell at NYSE. Read about it here in the NY Post. But yes we can believe that Jello had the right idea, dammit.
Just a heads up that there's a merch clearance sale over at VoteNader.org. We bring this to your attention because one of the items they carry is a DVD of their August 2008 rally in Denver, CO. It features our own Jello Biafra as one of the many speakers (others include Cindy Sheehan and Sean Penn) as well as live sets by Rage Against the Machine, etc.
P.S.- Also elected, some dude named Barack Obama.
Check out the interview with Vic Bondi of Articles of Faith and Report Suspicious Activity on Newsvine. RSA will play three shows next weekend in Baltimore, DC, and Chicago. The Chicago show will feature a short set of AOF songs with Vic Bondi and members of Pegboy. Be there!

Just a quick note for those of you in the US who are voting on election day. We're sure you've been hearing about voter suppression efforts and cranky voting machines that are plaguing the process already.
Before you go to your polling place (here's a Google Maps mashup if you need to find your location), double check your state's ID requirements and make sure to bring proper documents. Just in case, program this number into your cell: 866-687-8683 (866-OUR-VOTE). That's the hotline number for Election Protection, a non-partisan coalition who provides voter info and advice as well as collect data on irregularities.

LOWVILLE So many north country students wanted to attend this years Medical Academy for Science and Health Camp that the Fort Drum Regional Health Planning Organization had to put the overflow on a waiting list for next years program.
Yvette D. Pearson, FDRHPOs pipeline outreach coordinator, said she received 72 applications for 68 spots among Lewis County General Hospital; River Hospital, Alexandria Bay; Carthage Area Hospital; Samaritan Medical Center, Watertown; and Jefferson Community College, Watertown. Only about 50 people participated last year, when it was run by the former Northern New York Rural Healthcare Alliance.
The program is for students entering grades eight to 12 who want to experience and explore health careers.
Meghan M. Schulz, a participant in this weeks MASH Camp at Lewis County General Hospital, said she signed up for the program to learn more about different medical careers. The 17-year-old will be a senior at Lowville Academy and Central School this fall.
Ive been thinking somewhat about being an EMT but wanted to take a full glance at a hospital, she said, as she and five fellow participants worked through a forensics exercise Thursday at the hospital.
The forensics activity, which was organized partially by former MASH Camp participant Corrie A. Schell, had students think about DNA testing, footprints, smells, fingerprints, stains and various tests and clues. Miss Schell said she attended the program from 2006 to 2008, when it was known as Camp Med. While on summer break from studying for her bachelors degree in nursing at Roberts Wesleyan College, Rochester, Miss Schell specifically came back to Lewis County General to volunteer for MASH Camp.
Its a great opportunity if youre interested in a medical field and can see all aspects of a hospital, especially a rural hospital, she said.
Kathy M. Millard, the hospitals staff development coordinator, said the forensics activity usually is the most popular because students often watch crime shows on television. During this weeks MASH Camp at Lewis County General, students also visited the emergency, nursing, X-ray, physical therapy and laboratory departments and the dementia/Alzheimers unit.
Its kids with character who want to do good things, Mrs. Millard said. They want to solve the worlds problems and help people get better.
MASH Camps will be held at other participating hospitals later this summer.

USMNT U-18 midfielder trains with Crew First Team
OBETZ, Ohio - Gregg Berhalter's youth movement in Columbus showed its first signs of getting even younger Monday, when the new Crew boss invited Crew Soccer Academy and USMNT youth product Ben Swanson to train with the first team.
The 16-year-old midfielder participated in full 8-v-8 drills in Crew training, and Berhalter says he was impressed with Swanson's play.
"It's exciting to have our academy keep producing guys we can take a look at," Berhalter told reporters after training Monday. "If you watched today, he did fine, he did good. So it's nice to see."
Berhalter said that he likes having access to the academy players and being able to bring them in to get time with the first team. He said he expects big things from Swanson.
"We like to keep the connection," he said. "Obviously [Swanson] is a national team player, and we want to bring him around and expose him to our level of training because we think he has a bright future with us."
Swanson turns 17 in July, and has played for the USMNT youth at the U-17 and U-18 level, and was most recently called up to the Copa del Atlantico in Spain, where he was one of just eight players born in 1997 on the roster.
Is it possible that Swanson could be contributing for the club as early as 2014?
"If he's good enough to play, why not?" Berhalter said. "We want guys that can play, and if he's good enough, no problem."
The Crew have signed eight Homegrown players in their history, seven of which are still on the roster. And after adding two more Homegrowns in the offseason, Berhalter has no plans of stopping the flow of talent from the Crew Soccer Academy.
"They have a number of guys we're keeping an eye on," he said. "He's one of them. Obviously he's probably the most highly-touted, being with the U-18s and doing well there. But the academy is doing a good job of getting guys prepared for our level. So it's nice that they can come out and train and not look out of place."

Adults are conveying their personal experience with serious disease online in ever-increasing numbers, but do such chronicles help the authors or their audience? In the first known study of its kind, UCLA researchers have discovered that for women diagnosed with breast cancer, creating a personal website to chronicle the experience and communicate with the author's interpersonal circle can reduce depressive symptoms, increase positive mood and enhance appreciation for life.
Published online ahead of print today in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, the study was led by Dr. Annette Stanton, member of the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center and professor of psychology and psychiatry/biobehavioral sciences.
"From our own and others' previous research, we know that expressing emotions surrounding the cancer experience and gaining social support can be helpful for people diagnosed with the disease, and we know that interpersonal interventions can be useful," Stanton said. "Our goal in this research was to provide a platform on which breast cancer survivors could reflect on their experiences, as well as communicate with and leverage support from their existing social networks, especially friends and family."
Stanton launched Project Connect Online (PCO), a randomized trial conducted with 88 breast cancer survivors. She and her colleagues led three-hour workshops in which women created personal websites. Women randomly assigned to the control group were offered the workshop six months later. All participants completed standard measures of psychological status before being assigned to their respective groups and six months after selection.
In the PCO workshops conducted with small groups, participants learned about potential uses for the websites, such as expressing emotions related to cancer, providing medical status updates and letting others know what would be helpful. The women also proactively considered common concerns of website authors, including the pressure to be positive or eloquent. They then engaged in hands-on website creation and at the end of the three-hour sessions had created their websites and authored their first posts.
"We worked closely with a website developer so participants had several choices for how their sites looked, but all sites had the same functions," Stanton said. "It was inspiring to see women of so wide an age range (28 to 76 years old) and of such varied computer experience develop their websites in just a few hours."
The women also found their websites were particularly valuable for telling the stories of their cancer experiences, expressing emotions and reducing how much information they had to repeat for family and friends. Visitors to the websites found them useful for providing updates on the authors' health and for helping visitors feel emotionally close to authors.
Participants also demonstrated statistically significant improvement in depressive symptoms, positive mood and life appreciation. The effects were particularly strong for women in active medical treatment, most of whom had advanced (metastatic) disease. Women are more often motivated to tell their stories, express cancer-related emotions, garner support and keep others informed during active medical treatment than those who have completed their medical treatments for cancer.
"We are encouraged by these positive findings, especially for cancer survivors with the most need, and those in active medical treatment or with more advanced disease," Stanton added. "Our next step is to gain support for a larger test of Project Connect Online."
This research was supported by the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and the National Institutes of Health.
UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center has more than 240 researchers and clinicians engaged in disease research, prevention, detection, control, treatment and education. One of the nation's largest comprehensive cancer centers, the Jonsson center is dedicated to promoting research and translating basic science into leading-edge clinical studies. In July 2013, the Jonsson Cancer Center was named among the top 12 cancer centers nationwide by U.S. News & World Report, a ranking it has held for 14 consecutive years.

Comments about Denis Wick Trumpet Mouthpiece in Silver:
Used to play horn in college, but I unfortunately do not have anywhere to play now, so it's been a while. Still an active musician on the side. Used a Dennis Wick 3C all through high school, and when I played for about 2 years in college. I was really mad when my trumpet teacher tried to get me to switch from the Wick to a Bach mouthpiece. It was never quite the same. Fair warning - their sizes are a little bit deeper than the Bach sizing. Nice and heavy, so it won't wiggle around in the leadpipe. You'll pay a little more than for a bach or other brand, but the quality on these is far better - worth the extra money. When I start playing again, I'm definitely going to get a new one of these to replace my chiped Wick. No question, my favorite mouthpiece I used.

Finally, woodworkers can enjoy adding bamboo to their woodworking projects with these solid boards of real bamboo plywood. Bamboo is lauded as a highly sustainable natural product that's durable and resilient, making it fantastic in many fine woodworking projects. Cutting boards, table tops, shelves, and picture frames are just some of the many uses for bamboo.
Fast growing, bamboo is actually a tall grass not a tree. The grass shoots are processed into flat strips then laminated together to form the solid boards. The material we stock here is known as 1-ply, a full 3/4'' thick and laminated into 12'' wide boards.
Woodworkers Source Responds
From time to time the bamboo boards in our inventory will split right on the lamination joint. So, fortunately it's dead straight. To fix them, we rip the board right on the split and re-glue it together. You should be able to do the same, but if not we're happy to help you out with a replacement. firstname.lastname@example.com

excellent mount Review by vicnicgen
I had no problems installing this mount,of course that you have to hammer it a little bit but otherwise it woudnt be of any good ,it will come loose with the shooting if it didnt fit tight. (Posted on 4/13/10)
Not So Great... Review by Ken Gunnett
I spent over 2 hours plus getting this mount to fit my rifle. Now, I discover that the quick release mounts on my scopes will not close all the way. The mount comes without any instructions or Allen wrench for the set screws.
After a lot of trial and error, I came up with a solution. You need to place a double rubber headed hammer against the rear of the mount and hit the other end of the hammer with a steel hammer. A block of wood will not work, and beating the mount with rubber hammer alone only destroys your hammer. The last 1/4 was the worse!!! I had to take a file to the dovetails. You could see by the marks that they were not wide enough. The mounts was dragging on the top of my rifles receiver, so I had to take a file to the bottom of the mount to get some clearance.
Given the fax that I ruined a new hammer, some wood blocks, marred the finish on my rifle and the scope rings don't fit, I would advise against ordering this product. I would have returned this product to the Company, had I not had to beat on it so much to get it on and off my rifle. I should have spent the money on a new magazine. Unless your installing night vison, stay with your factory scope rings. (Posted on 12/5/09)

On Tuesday the prosecution offered Kim a plea deal which included suspending a 14 day jail sentence and community service. But Kim insists he's innocent and turned down the offer, asking for a jury trial. His trial is scheduled for May 21st.

The mother of a 16-year-old tipped 9NEWS Now reporter, Andrea McCarren, off to Town Square Market after she learned her daughter had been buying beer and vodka there, every week.
MORE: Mother Confronts Store Owner
For weeks 9NEWS NOW cameras captured video ofunderage teens allegedly buying alcohol from Town Square Market. One 18-year-old told us at the time, "It is very easy and we've been buying here almost two years."
When 9NEWS Now asked the young woman, in the past two years, had she ever been asked for id at the store she said, "Like once."
When 9NEWS Now spoke with Mr. Kim about our video he steadfastly denied selling to minors. "No. No, sir! No children, no sale."
After Mr. Kim's first court appearance in March on the underaged alcohol sale charge, Kim told 9NEWS NOW reporter, Andrea McCarren, he was filled with remorse and regret.

Needed: Storied NBA Rivalry
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Fri, 05/04/07, 03:25pm:
There are basically two legitimate rivalries in sports today – the Red Sox and Yankees in MLB, and the Patriots and Indianapolis in the NFL. Both have the power to command attention from casual fans and manic zeal from hardened ones. These days, I don't know that I watch more than five regular season NFL games a year, but I make an appointment to watch the annual Manning-Brady Bowl. And though I'm an Extra Innings subscriber, nothing gets me amped [confession: not even a Dodgers-Giants series] more than a weekend of Red Sox-Yankees baseball. These games, no matter what the outcome, matter. They're chapters of a longer, compelling narrative.
Right now, the NBA doesn't have one of these. Historically, you've got the storied Celtics-Lakers rivalry, but that hasn't been relevant for many, many years. Every few seasons, a couple of teams develop something organically: The Pistons-Celtics, then the Bulls-Pistons in the late 80s/early 90s. Reggie Miller managed to single-handedly cultivate a Knicks-Pacers rivalry in the 90s. New Yorkers will nominate the Heat-Knicks, but the truth is that nobody outside of New York cared because the Knicks were more unwatchable than present-day Sportscenter. Sacramento-Lakers was the most interesting inter-squad storyline of recent memory, but that dissolved with the departure of O'Neal and Webber. Dallas-PHX had the makings of a new rivalry, particularly with that classic in March, but any potential to canonize the rivalry ended last night. See, that's the thing with parity: Egalitarianism is good for league-wide optimism...but dynasties are better for titanic rivalries.
That's why the Chicago-Detroit series is good for the NBA. It pits the most controlled offense in the NBA [Detroit at 86.1 possessions per game] against one of the league's fastest teams [Chicago at 92.2], and a veteran team that's drank from the trophy against a potential-laden Baby Bulls squad. We get the Ben Wallace spiel and a great, great defense-offense through line with Tayshaun Prince taking on Luol Deng. And between Scott Skiles and 'Sheed, there's an official homicide watch. It may not be as good a series as San Antonio-PHX, but for dramatic tension, it's got everything you could hope for in a Conference Semifinal.

The following is required to obtain an Arizona title, registration and license plate for a vehicle previously titled or registered in another state. This is general information only. Any title and registration action may present special requirements. For additional information, see our Vehicle Services FAQ.
Lienholders hold the title until the lien is satisfied. The vehicle owner must hold a valid registration.
All title transactions, including new, transfer, duplicate and corrected, that indicate a lien are processed in the usual manner. However, after the transaction is recorded by MVD, the lienholder is responsible for maintaining the title.
The current regulations for title liens began Jan. 1, 2003, and were updated May 31, 2010, pursuant to Laws 2009, Chapter 70. An electronic lien and title (ELT) is an electronic method by which MVD and authorized lienholders exchange essential vehicle, lien and title information. Lienholders are required to perfect or release liens using the current ELT process through an approved ELT Service Provider. This process eliminates the need for printing and mailing individual paper titles.Once the lien has been satisfied, a lienholder sends an electronic message releasing the lien. MVD then forwards the title to the vehicle owner or to the next lienholder of record. This method results in faster service to vehicle owners.
A lien is satisfied once a lienholder receives payment in full. Full satisfaction of a lien is met under these conditions:
Penalties may be assessed to any lienholder who does not surrender a certificate of title (electronic or paper) upon the request of the legal vehicle owner. The title must be delivered within 15 business days of full satisfaction of the lien.
Lienholders found in violation may receive penalties that range from $50 to a maximum of $500 per title.
For more information, please see our Vehicle FAQs.

MASSENA - The Massena Valley Garden Club met for its October meeting at Feeleys Tree Farm. John Feeley, proprietor of the tree farm, demonstrated how he trims the evergreens to shape the trees to grow into Christmas trees.
He told the club members which soil the trees grow in, the need to control weeds, proper fertilization and care. He identified different types of evergreens, and he said that it takes six to eight years to grow the ideal Christmas tree.
The clubs members have been busy this week planting daffodil bulbs in various locations around Massena. They continued the planting on Thursday. It is part of the beautification of Massena project the group has been working on. This was a pleasant break for those doing the planting.
This walk in the woods to the tree farm was followed by a meeting hosted by the Feeleys. John gave the members a chance to purchase a tree for the holiday time and tag it until closer to the season. John also holds this open to the public. You may call him at 315-769-8854 to make an appointment.
Anyone with a program the club may be interested in is asked to call Jane Portolese, club president, at 315-769-7383.

With the Region 8 football season rapidly drawing to an end, the Carbon High Dinos struggle to capture a regular season victory. With only two weeks left until the region tournament begins, the Dinos battle for a much needed win.
This win did not come to the Dinos this past week after the team fell to the Lehi Pioneers 42-6.
"We stunk. We weren't ready to play," coach Jeff Jorgensen explained.
Lehi opened up strong against the struggling Carbon team as the Pioneers chalked up 14 quick points in the first quarter.
The second quarter played out much like the first as the Pioneers scored 14 more points to bring the halftime score to 28-0.
Following the half, Carbon stepped out on to the field ready to launch a second half rally. The Dinos did score a touchdown in the third quarter as Jan Jorgensen ran eight yards for the score.
One of the biggest weaknesses for the Dinos this year has been their kicking game. Similar to games played earlier this season, the extra point kick was no good, thus leaving the Dinos trailing Lehi 28-6.
The Pioneers answered the Dinos offensive rally with a 40 yard pass from quarterback Rylee Worthen to a receiver who scored for the Pioneers. Entering the fourth quarter, the Dinos trailed 35-6.
The Dinos continued to struggle until the final whistle. After all was said and done, the Dinos had lost to the Pioneers 42-6.
"They just didn't play well. The mental game wasn't there and when your head isn't in the game, then the physical game falls too. They just need to focus and come and play Dino football," explained coach Jorgensen.
With only two games remaining this season on the Dinos schedule, it is important that the team finishes the season strong. The Dinos will host their final home game of the year Thursday evening at 7 p.m.
"We play Ogden this week and they're a beatable team. We just need to come out and play hard. If the kids keep their minds on the game, we can beat Ogden," coach Jorgensen stated.
After losing to Lehi this past week, the Dinos should be fired up to launch a comeback later this week.
With their current record standing at 0-3 in Region 8 match ups and 1-6 in the overall standings, it is extremely important for the Dinos to add to the win column in each standings bracket.

Gov. Olene Walker has issued an agricultural drought declaration for the state of Utah.
The declaration follows six consecutive years of below average rainfall and a projected $133 million negative impact on Utah's agricultural economy din 2004.
The governor is also calling for the United States Department of Agriculture to declare a national agricultural disaster for the qualifying counties in the state.
"Utah remains one of the hardest hit states by this prolonged drought and I am asking for immediate assistance from our federal government," pointed out Walker.
"Utah's farmers and ranchers are experiencing some of the driest conditions on record, and help is desperately needed," continued the governor
In a letter written to U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Ann Veneman, Walker requested the federal government's assistance to provide relief for the hundreds of farmers and ranchers who face substantial crop loss due to drought along with the record cricket and grasshopper infestation.
The estimated financial loss of crop and forage value to Utah farmers and ranchers totals $133 million.
The projected financial losses represent approximately 30 percent of the historic value of the agricultural commodities produced at locations in the Castle Valley region and throughout the state.
Utah commissioner of agriculture and food Cary Peterson reports that extreme drought conditions exist in 21 of the state's 29 counties.
In addition, irrigation reservoir levels statewide are significantly below normal. And some of the reservoirs are experiencing levels that are virtually non-existent.
The drought conditions have qualified the state for livestock feed assistance in the form of the non-fat dry milk program offered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The Utah FSA damage report estimates that agrigultural producers in Carbon County have suffered $1,240,000 in damages as a direct result of the drought conditions.
In addition to Carbon, the Utah counties qualifying for primary drought disaster designation include:
Beaver, $2,087,000.
Box Elder, $20,151,000
Cache, $26,128,000.
Emery, $3,607,000
Garfield, $3,891,000
Grand, $523,000
Iron, $5,202,000
Juab, $3,224,000
Kane, $1,765,000
Millard, $18,188,000
Piute, $2,632,000
Rich, $5,193,000
Salt Lake, $524,000
San Juan, $1,061,000
Sanpete, $11,497,000
Sevier, $7,282,000
Summit, $7,725,00
Tooele, $3,999,000
Washington, $2,385,000
Wayne, $3,877,000
The remaining eight counties also suffer from drought conditions and are worthy of inclusion in a disaster declaration, the report concluded.

|Researchers report that they've been able to block the decay process that causes cut Christmas trees to shed their needles. Writing in the journal Trees, a team of researchers at at Université Laval and Nova Scotia Agricultural College report that by blocking ethylene from reaching receptors in the balsam fir, they can keep trees green, tender, and fresh-looking long after untreated trees have lost their needles. We'll talk about the work, and other tips for keeping a cut evergreen looking its best.

For a woman like my grandmother who was hampered by blindness and arthritis but who also embraced all technology that improved her quality of life and kept her as independent as possible, Clarity's upcoming product, the Fortissimo speakerphone would have been a hit. So, right out the gate I would like to say that I love the functionality and purpose of this product.
Recent reports note that it is to be brought to market by Clarity sometime this Spring. A comprehensive solution that is geared towards the mobility-challenged and for those with other disabilities, the implications for communication, enhanced enjoyment of media, and leveling the playing field make this a winner out the gate. It features massively loud 95dB speakers, huge buttons, Planttronics 'Vocalyst' technology, DECT connectivity and Bluethooth capability... making wireless earpieces and headsets great accessories to make the most of such a great gadget. The combination of these technologies and design can make the world of difference for those who are limited by hearing, seeing, and mobility challenges.
The Fortissimo features Plantronics' Vocalyst technology that takes the physical design considerations to the next level by pushing social network updates, send messages, and push emails. This capability helps connect those who are more easily isolated to the world and could have safety implications as well.
To ensure that customers aren't left in the dark if things go awry, there is a dedicated button on the device that will automatically call the Clarity support center. From there, a rep can remotely program the phone which will offer a huge sigh of relief for those who are not so tech savvy.
With a projected launch of April or May, the device is said to retail for $500 and will undoubtedly be a worthwhile investment.

Soldano is a company that firmly believes there's no better way than to build amplifiers and effects than by hand. It's a philosophy that they follow through on with every amp they make, and they've got the confidence to describe their products as the "best guitar amplifiers in the world." When you try a Soldano amp yourself, you'll probably have to agree with them: the combination of unmatched tube tone, manual build quality and high-tech design delivers an amplifier that's nothing short of incredible.
Looking to build up a towering stack of tone? If so, consider starting with the Soldano Avenger Amplifier Head. Single-channel with no effects loop, its barebones design makes things really straightforward. The result is pure tone, pushing the legendary overdrive of the SLO 100 through a set of 5881/6L6 power tubes. When you want an amp that's no frills and all bite, the Avenger absolutely delivers - and it works with 4, 8 and 16-ohm speaker cabinets, so you can make this beast howl through any drivers you like.
Of course, if you do want an amp with more features, the original SLO 100 can't be beat. This is one of the most sought-after amplifiers anywhere, and it's been put through its paces by guitarists like Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Eddie Van Halen and Lou Reed. The overdrive channel is just the beginning of what this classic has to offer: its sustain, jumps and tone (supported by four 12AX7 tubes) are all equally unbelievable. If you want to rock out on an amp that literally changed the industry, this is your chance.
Maybe you're searching for something a bit more low-key than a full stack. In that case, Soldano's combo amps are the way to go. Take the 44 1x12 Tube Guitar Amp for example; this compact screamer features a 12" Eminence Legend driver backed up by five (count 'em: five!) JJ12AX7 tubes. Blues City Music's Lynn Burke had a hand in the design of the Soldano 44, and the collaboration definitely created a winner.
The Avenger, SLO 100 and Soldano 44 are only a few highlights from the amazing lineup of amps and cabinets you'll find here, so go ahead and take a look at all that Soldano has to offer. Just try not to get any drool on your screen (though nobody will blame you if you do).
