Your Cox Services
Maximizing Your Cox High Speed Internet
What is Speed?
Simply put, speed is how much capacity your connection provides - the greater the capacity, the less congestion and faster the speed. It's like driving on a highway with more lanes.
Want to know why we're so excited about increasing our speeds on our most popular packages? Take a moment and read what 50 Mbps can do:
- Download 5 MP3 songs in 3 seconds
- Upload 30 vacation photos in 20 seconds
- Upload a video clip up to 35 MB in less than 30 seconds
- Download a full length movie in about 2 minutes
In addition to saving time, you'll be able to stream videos and music without interruption, game faster and power more devices on your in-home WiFi. With the fastest Internet provider in town, you've got the speed you need to get things done.
Based on your usage needs, the Cox Speed Advisor can help you find your ideal speed.
Package Speed Usage
Starter Up to 5 Mbps Light surfing
Essential Up to 15 Mbps Email and web surfing
Preferred Up to 50 Mbps Music, photos, banking and shopping
Premier Up to 100 Mbps Gaming, movies and video
Ultimate Up to 150 Mbps Multiple connections and gaming
Speed and Equipment
What you do online is not the lone factor affecting your Internet speed. Your wireless connection and your equipment can also impact your online experience.
Going Wireless: In-Home WiFi
With in-home WiFi, take your laptop, tablet or smartphone anywhere in your home and continue to stream movies, videos, music and more. You won't miss a scene or a note. And you can save money because you won't be using any of your smartphone data allowance. Some other great benefits with in-home WiFi:
- Share your Internet connection - Multiple users in your household can access the Internet at once and share photos, music, or important files.
- Connect anywhere in the home - Break free from the wires and connect wirelessly while on the couch, by the pool or almost anywhere in your home.
- Home Network Manager - Monitor and manage your devices on your in-home WiFi more easily with free software included with Cox purchased or rented WiFi modems.
- Save Money - Pay for only one Internet connection. Also, share one printer – no need to buy one for each device in your home.
Making Your In-Home WiFi as Seamless as Your Connection
Ensure your in-home WiFi operates at peak performance. These tips can help you get the most out of your wireless connection:
- Use WPA2-PKS to ensure your network is safe and free from unwelcome users that can slow down your connection.
- Enable Cox Security Suite so your Internet usage is protected.
- Choose a WiFi modem or router with dual band capability to provide more bandwidth for multiple users.
- Install your WiFi modem in a centralized location to maximize wireless coverage for all your devices. Placing it in an elevated location also may improve coverage.
Picking the Right Equipment
The latest equipment helps you get the most from your online experience. Cox requires using a DOCSIS 3.0 modem on Preferred and higher and recommends it overall because it best supports the faster speeds.
Cox wants to equip you with the right devices, technology and know-how to achieve the best online experience. Know more, do more.

Read: Don Fehr's Goal Is To Make A Point
In the LA Times, Bill Shaikin writes about NHLPA Executive Director Donald Fehr and how he came out of retirement to take the job of running the NHLPA.
He writes that while some owners won't admit that they find Fehr to be an engaging fellow, the majority of owners just remember Fehr for all the fights in the boardroom during his tenure as head of the MLBPA.
Shaikin writes that the perception of of Michael Weiner, who replaced Don Fehr, is that he wants to make a deal. The perception of Fehr is that "he wants to make a point."
He adds "He breathes fire at the suggestion he is not acting in the best interests of hockey. His working life has been devoted to challenging owners who claim the best interests of a sport preclude players from negotiating with the team with which they want to play, for whatever salary that team might want to pay."

ATT.net here support some dial in with CHAP but only people from Boston area can varify it.
Please forgive me if this is a commonly asked question; I didn't have any luck searching or browsing the forum.
I will soon be moving to the Boston area, and dropping my current (local) ISP. I am running a Win95 (!) computer dual booting with Mandrake 7 Linux, and my local ISP is easy to use with Linux.
I am contemplating going with a 'major brand' ISP (for dialup service) after moving, e.g. MSN or att.net. Are these services compatible with dialup from Linux? Neither seems to support Linux with software, but that's okay -- as long as I can set ppp settings and connect, I'm happy. Is it easy, difficult, or impossible to connect a Linux machine to these big name services? Or do I need to use a local ISP company?
If it helps, I'll be living in Beverly. Thanks very much for any advice, and for your patience if this is an unusually dumb question.
ATT.net here support some dial in with CHAP but only people from Boston area can varify it.
As far as I know, it should work fine as long as you don't need any special software to dial in.
Well, you can always change your ISP later if you found it not be compartible with Linux. Also, stay away from MSN since it will be a very M$ centric network.

ok, guess no one else know either. I saw it posted in another site that it would install under wine, but I wasnt sure about the quality of people there. I will let you all know if I find something.
Has anyone gotten Outcast to run in wine or is there some binaries out there like quake to make it work? Just wondering. ;D
ok, guess no one else know either. I saw it posted in another site that it would install under wine, but I wasnt sure about the quality of people there. I will let you all know if I find something.
Yeah, I saw some people having trouble with it, but according to codeweaver's db, it should work with wine/winex. I would just love a native version though...
Yeah a truly native linux version would be mondo sweet. I could free up my windows partition (9Gb) for more linux stuff then. I tried to get it to install under wine and it did not work at all. Kept trying to find the windows/fonts folder. I guess it would work alot better if I had windows installed at the time. I got it installed now(windows on the same hd), just have to have time to try it.
i had purchased winex from Transgaming www.transgaming.com and i was very pleased with there work its worth the 3 month membership if you are really hardcore about linux gaming. I ran half life, rtcw, counter-strike and worms just fine. But i'd say save your self the headache and leave the gaming to M$. Now i read on there forums that Jk2 ran well on there current release (this was months ago) so maybe if you fanagled with there free binaries you could have better luck, they seem to be the most advanced with wine when it comes to catering to the 3d community.
I've had great luck with the CVS of winex. I got it just after winex 2.1 had been released. Warcraft 3 runs fine, max payne works fine, I had a little problem with Halflife, but I didn't really care that much. If a program uses directx 8.* get the latest CVS and see how you go. I only have windows installed so I can do my math assignments now. I have 2 programs which I can't quite get working, but as far as games go, wine is great. One thing I would have to say, is don't let it detect your actual windows partition. Set it up with a fake windows c. It made things work straight away for me.
CP -- you hit the target. Dont use a real windows partition. Anything that relies on the registry wont see it. Wine uses a fake registry to hold the settings. Thats why MS-Office will not work uner anything but a wine full-install. Alot of games are similar. I had about zero luck with wine+windows partition. Dont waste your time. Just try the install. Some games have know workarounds for getting a windows installed game to run on wine, and I reccomend checking the winehq DB to see what the spiel is before doing anything.

Perhaps everyone who has been married long enough to face an inexplicable argument has been in the position of provocateur, yet the experience can feel like the spouse is the one who's doing the attacking. We unconsciously provoke our spouse and then hope for a certain response, which would allegedly satisfy an internal need or desire.
Of course social psychologists have had a hard time conceptualizing the mechanisms that cause us to behave in this way. While social psychological research on emotions has picked up in the last 30 years, most using a social constructivist approach, only a limited number of articles have tried to deal with the experience for the individual.
In the New York Times Magazine, Elizabeth Weil describes her frustrating experience of seeking therapy for her "happy" marriage. Not surprisingly, a host of therapy sessions were meant to unearth tension between her and her husband, in hopes of building intimacy by discussing and eventually accepting the other's feelings and emotions. "Marital therapy," Weil recounts, "seemed akin to chemo: helpful but toxic."
To know why we sometimes act spiteful when we want our spouse to show their love is something social psychologists may never know. Yet the experience of emotion and the way we end up behaving during the tense times is unforgettable.

A Monroeville man was killed and his brother was injured during an accident that ripped a car in half early this morning on Ridge Road.
The passenger, Michael D. Brant, 29, of 2612 Ohio 162, was pronounced dead at the scene by Huron County Coroner Dr. Jeffrey Harwood. It's unknown if he was wearing a seat belt because of the damage to the right side of the vehicle.
Norwalk Fire Capt. William Knadler estimated Brant was thrown about 50 or 60 feet from the 1993 Dodge Intrepid driven by Timothy A. Brant, 26, of 330 Peru Center Road, Monroeville.
Knadler was one of 11 firefighters who assisted North Central EMS and established a landing zone for the medical helicopter which took Timothy Brant, who was wearing his seat belt, to St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center in Toledo. There was no further information from the hospital or the state Highway Patrol on his condition this morning.
Sgt. Mary Mack said Timothy Brant sustained what may have been internal injuries to his chest area.
Knadler said the back half of the Intrepid looked like it was torn through the passenger area and the front section had part of the passenger side ripped off.
"The car was so torn up, it was kind of hard to tell," he said, adding that it appeared the vehicle probably hit a bridge abutment at an angle on the passenger side.
Timothy Brant was heading south on Ridge Road near South Norwalk Road about 2:15 a.m. today when he failed to negotiate a curve. He went off the right side of the road and hit a guardrail and bridge, which ripped the Intrepid in half from front to back and ejected the passenger, troopers said.
Mack said both halves of the vehicle were about 100 feet apart on the same side of the road where the driver left Ridge Road. No charges have been filed in the ongoing investigation.

Ron Paul is under fire for a tweet sent from his twitter account regarding the untimely death of Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle, who was allegedly murdered by another veteran whom he was supposedly trying to help deal with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Paul's tweet read: "Chris Kyle's death seems to confirm that 'he who lives by the sword dies by the sword.' Treating PTSD at a firing range doesn't make sense."
Paul is a veteran himself. After he became the subject of criticism, he extended his condolences to Kyle's family and assured his critics that it is not Kyle himself to whom he referred, but "the unconstitutional and unnecessary wars" in which the late SEAL participated.
"Unconstitutional and unnecessary wars have endless unintended consequences," Paul said. "A policy of non-violence, as Christ preached, would have prevented this and similar tragedies."
Some comments are in order here.
First, anyone who knows anything at all about Paul knows that his most recent remarks are not an attempt at backpedaling on his part; Paul is nothing if not a stalwart opponent of what he routinely calls "the Warfare State." As far as he is concerned, there really is no end to the evil that America's incessant warring abroad promises to visit upon all affected by it — including and particularly those who engage in it.
Still, Chris Kyle chose to become a member of the United States military. He chose to become a Navy SEAL. And he chose to distinguish himself as the biggest killer in the annals of American military history.
These are not criticisms. They are facts. They are facts that neither a believer in individual liberty, like Paul, nor Kyle, the proud author of American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History — would think to deny. Paul comes dangerously close to playing the "Society made him do it" card when he shifts the focus of his tweet from Kyle to the government.

HOLLIS, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- State Police say a man and a woman were killed in a two-vehicle collision along Route 117 in Hollis this afternoon.
Troopers say the road was covered in slush at the time and weather was a factor in the crash.
The names of the dead are being withheld as family members are being notified.
State Police Trooper Robin Parker says a 17-year-old driver of a van lost control and it crossed the center line into the path of a pickup truck. The teenager survived the crash, which killed his two passengers. Parker said the crash took place on a straight stretch of the road.
The occupants of the pickup truck both sustained multiple injuries but are expected to survive. They are being treated at Maine Medical hospitals in Biddeford and Portland.
The teenager driving the van also sustained multiple injuries and also is expected to survive. He is being treated at Maine Medical.
A team of six State Troopers went to the crash site to assist in the investigation.
Officials say parts of Cape Road, also known as Route 117, are still closed.

21 U.S. Code § 350a - Infant formulas
(a) Adulteration
An infant formula, including an infant formula powder, shall be deemed to be adulterated if—
(2) such infant formula does not meet the quality factor requirements prescribed by the Secretary under subsection (b)(1) of this section, or
(b) Requirements for quality factors, good manufacturing practices, and retention of records
(1) The Secretary shall by regulation establish requirements for quality factors for infant formulas to the extent possible consistent with current scientific knowledge, including quality factor requirements for the nutrients required by subsection (i) of this section.
(A) The Secretary shall by regulation establish good manufacturing practices for infant formulas, including quality control procedures that the Secretary determines are necessary to assure that an infant formula provides nutrients in accordance with this subsection and subsection (i) of this section and is manufactured in a manner designed to prevent adulteration of the infant formula.
(B) The good manufacturing practices and quality control procedures prescribed by the Secretary under subparagraph (A) shall include requirements for—
(i) the testing, in accordance with paragraph (3) and by the manufacturer of an infant formula or an agent of such manufacturer, of each batch of infant formula for each nutrient required by subsection (i) of this section before the distribution of such batch,
(ii) regularly scheduled testing, by the manufacturer of an infant formula or an agent of such manufacturer, of samples of infant formulas during the shelf life of such formulas to ensure that such formulas are in compliance with this section,
(iii) in-process controls including, where necessary, testing required by good manufacturing practices designed to prevent adulteration of each batch of infant formula, and
(iv) the conduct by the manufacturer of an infant formula or an agent of such manufacturer of regularly scheduled audits to determine that such manufacturer has complied with the regulations prescribed under subparagraph (A).
In prescribing requirements for audits under clause (iv), the Secretary shall provide that such audits be conducted by appropriately trained individuals who do not have any direct responsibility for the manufacture or production of infant formula.
(A) At the final product stage, each batch of infant formula shall be tested for vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin C, and vitamin E to ensure that such infant formula is in compliance with the requirements of this subsection and subsection (i) of this section relating to such vitamins.
(B) Each nutrient premix used in the manufacture of an infant formula shall be tested for each relied upon nutrient required by subsection (i) of this section which is contained in such premix to ensure that such premix is in compliance with its specifications or certifications by a premix supplier.
(C) During the manufacturing process or at the final product stage and before distribution of an infant formula, an infant formula shall be tested for all nutrients required to be included in such formula by subsection (i) of this section for which testing has not been conducted pursuant to subparagraph (A) or (B). Testing under this subparagraph shall be conducted to—
(i) ensure that each batch of such infant formula is in compliance with the requirements of subsection (i) of this section relating to such nutrients, and
(D) If the Secretary adds a nutrient to the list of nutrients in the table in subsection (i) of this section, the Secretary shall by regulation require that the manufacturer of an infant formula test each batch of such formula for such new nutrient in accordance with subparagraph (A), (B), or (C).
(A) The Secretary shall by regulation establish requirements respecting the retention of records. Such requirements shall provide for—
(i) the retention of all records necessary to demonstrate compliance with the good manufacturing practices and quality control procedures prescribed by the Secretary under paragraph (2), including records containing the results of all testing required under paragraph (2)(B),
(iii) the retention by a premix supplier of all records necessary to confirm the accuracy of all premix certifications and guarantees of analysis,
(iv) the retention of—
(I) all records pertaining to the microbiological quality and purity of raw materials used in infant formula powder and in finished infant formula, and
(v) the retention of all records of the results of regularly scheduled audits conducted pursuant to the requirements prescribed by the Secretary under paragraph (2)(B)(iv), and
(i) Records required under subparagraph (A) with respect to an infant formula shall be retained for at least one year after the expiration of the shelf life of such infant formula.

While plenty of consumers and investors ponder both the value and future of bitcoin, one U.S. state securities regulator is warning about dealing with exchanges that handle trading in the virtual currency.
Joseph Borg, the state securities administrator in Alabama and a past president of the North American State Securities Administrators Association, told MarketWatch he planned to issue a consumer alert early Tuesday — ultimately releasing that statement late Monday just as the drama surrounding bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox escalated sharply — a suggesting that if consumers and investors have trouble redeeming bitcoins or cashing out of their accounts, they stop trading — or adding to their holdings on account — until issues are resolved.
Borg has been involved in a wide range of high-profile cases in his 20 years on the Alabama Securities Commission, perhaps most notably pushing for the formation of the multistate task force that ultimately shut down Stratton Oakmont, the investment firm that became the basis for the recent movie "The Wolf of Wall Street."
That's particularly bad news for Mt. Gox, the largest bitcoin exchange, as Borg said his move was prompted by seeing a string of correspondence showing the frustrations some Gox customers have faced in trying to get their money out.
After exchanging emails or chatting with about 60 cryptocurrency traders (some have already moved away from BTC), it's clear to me that issues related to making withdrawals from one's accounts are all too common, with some characterizing the money as being held in "Mt. Gox jail."
'If it was an investment we were talking about, we'd be moving to shut somebody down or to make them step up and take care of business properly.'
Investors describe repeatedly being asked to provide information that any reputable financial company should not have had to request, such as linked bank-account numbers, amounts on account with the exchange—both in bitcoin and in dollars—and more. Expedited requests—where customers were willing to pay fees of 5% to have withdrawals processed "manually"—wound up taking weeks and were going unfilled; Borg noted that, in this day and age, any suggestion that "manual processing" is faster is alarming.
Borg told MarketWatch he planned to cite recent reports from a survey by CoinDesk, a leading bitcoin news and information site, showing that nearly two-thirds of Mt. Gox users were still awaiting funds; some had waited as long as three months. He mentioned numerous examples—again, in some cases after looking at emails Mt. Gox users shared with MarketWatch—in saying, "If it was an investment we were talking about, we'd be moving to shut somebody down or to make them step up and take care of business properly. … If it took you a month or two or three to get your money out of a brand-name brokerage firm, you'd be worried that something bad is going on, and that's with a firm where you really aren't worried that your money is gone. …Their experiences, honestly, look very bad."
More than a dozen regulators I spoke with for this column said they saw issues exactly in line with Borg's concerns but felt that bitcoin exchanges were out of their purview, even if the customers—the theoretical victims if an exchange were to collapse—were in their state or region. It's largely out of the regulators' purview because most of the operators are located offshore.
"Dealing with these exchanges should be no different than dealing with your bank or your financial institution," Borg said, "and we would tell you that you never do business with a bank that does not know you have money on account, or that is asking for your passwords or that doesn't seem to remember the account links you established when you started the account. Now we are saying that you should never do business with a bitcoin exchange that has the same problems, or that has to ask you how much bitcoin you've got."
Mt. Gox halts bitcoin withdrawals
Bitcoin prices are falling sharply after Mt. Gox, the major exchange's virtual currency, said it was forced to halt withdrawals for customers.
Borg noted that the visible issues some investors have had with certain exchanges might have investors wondering if the entire cryptocurrency world is a rip-off. But he stopped far short of that kind of warning, saying it's entirely possible that investors' experiences could vary entirely based on how they trade bitcoin, in the same manner in which stock investors would have different experiences using a respected brokerage firm and a boiler-room shop. Gox is arguably the biggest name, but it's clear from my discussions with traders that it is also the operation that gets the least respect, particularly among veteran traders. Mt. Gox did not respond to a request for comment.
Borg did say—and suggest that his published warning would state—that the validity of any cryptocurrency "is a matter of perception."
The big issue is not the value of the currency so much as "execution" and "settlement" of transactions.

How To Verify a State Record Catch
Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Mallows Bay
This has been a year of first fish for me: first blueline tilefish, first blackbelly rosefish, first chain pickerel, first tidal largemouth bass, first northern snakehead and the first blue catfish that I caught early this week at Mallows Bay on the Potomac.
The blue cats taste great. Even the channel cats from the Potomac don't have the muddy flavor that channel cats in the Patuxent are tainted with. And, the Potomac cats get much bigger!
This afternoon, I caught 14 channel cats, 1 blue cat, and a white cat on the incoming tide plus plenty of white perch and about a dozen fiesty under 18" channel bass.
Remember that this is the first year that white cats will be documented by DNR for record status. They don't grow super big. The Virginia record is just over 7 lbs. If you catch a big headed catfish with a moderately forked tail and white lower chin barbels, you likely have a white catfish. If it is over 5 lbs., you could have this year's record. I caught a 4+ pounder in August but the record keeping did not start till Sept. 4.
Questions to DNR Staff: What is the largest white catfish presently logged in? What is the process to officially verify species of potential record fish?
DNR Response: Sounds like youve had quite a year on the water! The tidal Potomac has some great opportunities for catfish. Our latest rules for state record consideration are as follows:
- Entries must be submitted within two (2) weeks of the date the catch was made. If the Citation Center you visit does not have a certified scale; it is strongly suggested that every effort is made as soon as possible to obtain an accurate certified weight; since dead fish will lose weight quickly. Local deli meat stores, U.P.S or similar mailing and shipping stores are good locations to look for a scale that is certified by Maryland Department of Agricultures "Weights and Measures". A copy of the certified weight with the scale operators witness signature and date are required.
- Fish must be a species commonly fished for with rod and reel and caught by legal methods during a legally open season.
- The fish must be considered "trophy sized" if a new species category is to be opened for recognition.
- The catch must be weighed on certified scales and inspected in person by a designated biologist from the Department of Natural Resources.*
- It is the responsibility of the angler to fill out completely and accurately the official Maryland Sport Fishing Tournament entry blank. A side view photograph of the catch must accompany the entry and the actual tackle used must be exhibited to the agent of the citation center if requested.
- Fish which are caught from pay to fish areas are not eligible for record consideration.
- Citation centers and anglers should immediately notify the Maryland Sport Fishing Tournament Office of a potential State Record fish as soon as possible.
- Tournament Manager: Keith Lockwood
- Direct: 410-226-0078 Fax: 410-226-0120
- Late day or weekend catches should be immersed in ice water until the tournament office is notified.
*Although citations are awarded based on length only, all fish being considered for State Records must be weighed. This is because existing records have been maintained by weight.
Sorry but we do not keep records of fish not of state record consideration, no one has yet to submit a record white catfish (7lb min).

Small, But Tasty Snakehead
Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Mallows Bay Cove
I caught my first snakehead in Mallows Bay Cove while fishing a Chesapeake rigged Sneaky Snake on top of the Hydrilla. No, it's not a big one but it is a beginning.
Good fun and great eating!

WESH - Look at this surveillance video from the back lot of the puff and stuff catering warehouse.
Police say Alonzo Heard attempted to rob Stephen Yakima.
Staring down the barrel of a loaded shotgun, Steve said he had to spring into action.
"I don't feel like I was fighting for my life, I Just wanted to do what was right. I'm not going to put up with it," said Stephen Yakima.
On the video, you can see Steve struggle with Heard. He says the gun even fired a shot.
Hearing the screams for help from the nearby loading dock, his coworker and former member of the U.S. Army, Rodney delivered the blows that turned this struggle into an arrest.
"I heard the screams for help. I came around the corner and seen them 'scruffling.' Only thing I wanted to do was get my boss man loose," said Rodney Billingsley.
Detectives say earlier in the evening, Heard actually pointed his weapon at a woman who allegedly owed him $2.
Police say they found marijuana and cocaine on Heard. Right now he is sitting behind bars.

Nights in Rodanthe
Drama, Romance
Adrienne Willis, a woman with her life in chaos, retreats to the tiny coastal town of Rodanthe, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, to tend to a friend's inn for the weekend. Here she hopes to find the tranquility she so desperately needs to rethink the conflicts surrounding her--a wayward husband who has asked to come home and a teenaged daughter who resents her every decision. Almost as soon as Adrienne gets to Rodanthe, a major storm is forecast and Dr. Paul Flanner arrives. The only guest at the inn, Flanner is not on a weekend escape but rather is there to face his own crisis of conscience. Now, with the storm closing in, the two turn to each other for comfort and, in one magical weekend, set in motion a life-changing romance that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives.

I am considering enlisting in the Army National Guard under the OCS enlistment option. I am wondering if there is anyone out there who has gone through the Colorado OCS process, and if they may be able to provide some insight on what the process is like. It is my understanding that one has to apply to OCS, and be accepted or rejected from OCS. Also, in Colorado does one go to BCT before applying to OCS or after. Thank you.

Now there's always the option to enlist under some other MOS, go to AIT, then try to apply to OCS later. That's entirely different though.
Re: CO Colorado OCS
I expressed my desire to be an officer to my recruiter when I first met him. He told me that OCS really wasn't happening right now and I'd have a better chance going enlisted first and then applying. I told him I would wait and see what the officer track looked like in a couple months. Well, a couple months passed and he called me saying that he was in some meetings and could possibly get me a slot in the federal OCS track. I was more than thrilled, and I honestly didnt have to do much more. He did all the work on his end and reserved me a slot in 2014.
I have experience with officer boards and the 'packet' process as I applied to active duty Air Force OTS about 3 years ago. From what I have experienced, the two application processes are completly different. With the ARNG, I did not put together anything related to a packet (LOR's, personal statement, or even have an interview) that I had to do with AFOTS. The only 'extra step' that I was even aware of was applying for the appropriate security clearance required of officers, versus enlisted. (And checking the box for [X] Commission at MEPS. (on a side note I when to MEPS when I was considering the enlisted side and did not have this box checked, and my recruiter was able to make the appropriate adjustments w/out me going back for an identical physical)
Sorry for the long-winded response. In sum, as it was said previously, you enlist as "09S" -an officer candidate- and attend BCT first. (assuming you have your 4yr degree you are techincally an E4 max at BCT) then its off to what ever OCS track (Accelerated, Federal, or Traditional). Lastly, you attend your Branch Training (BOLC).Last edited by Hawks; March 22nd, 2013, 02:29 AM. Reason: typo

Glad to see it worked out, though.
Re: CO Colorado OCS
Originally posted by Lance13A View PostThat translates to "you're the first guy that's asked about OCS, and I really don't know how to do it. Why don't you try this other thing that you don't really want, but I know how to do."
Glad to see it worked out, though.
Exactly. I discovered that he normally works with highschoolers and pre-college age individuals. He even told me that he 'wasnt sure how the process worked exactly' which I took as he had not really-if at all- had an applicant that joined as an 09S. But I too am glad that all is finally coming to a close. I sign contract next week.

Lindsay Lohan had a surprise run-in with a face from her past last night: One of her "Mean Girls" costars!
The 27-year-old actress sat front row at Style Fashion Week's EuArt Presents Art Hearts show on Wednesday night at L.A. Live Event Deck, where she saw designs from R. Michel'le, Marco Marco, Kami Shade, M The Movement, Donna Mizani and Mr. Triple X.
But it wasn't just the clothes on the runway that caught her eye!
toofab's Anna Kachikyan was there as Lindsay reunited with her 2004 costar, Daniel Franzese, who played Damian in the classic flick.
The two were seen catching up and exchanging phone numbers at the show, where they were coincidentally seated just four people apart from each other.
With the 10 year anniversary of the movie coming up next year, we'd love to see Cady Heron, Regina George, Gretchen Wieners, Karen, Damien and Janis Ian at their high school reunion ... wouldn't you?
Come on Hollywood, make this happen!
Check out the gallery above to find out what the rest of the cast has been up to lately, plus see how much they've changed since 2004!

With school districts throughout Florida facing millions of dollars in cuts, lawmakers are once again trying to clear the way to allow advertisements on school buses.
A bill was recently filed in the state House that would allow local districts to give the green light for commercial advertising on buses.
Similar bills have been filed in the past, but have never made it to the governor's desk.
According to the bill, the ads would have some restrictions, preventing certain products, such as alcohol or cigarettes, from being displayed.
Monies generated from the ads would be used for transportation costs.

On original installation I set my display for 800x600 but have since found that when I view web pages everything looks like its at 1024x768 very small text. I think you do it in Sax2 but that looked very scary and it was asking to change keyboard and mouse settings.. I just want to simply change the display not go through a complet install.
I'm a Linux user. I've used SUSE since January, 1999. You can't get around the options SaX2 presents to you to reconfigure the mouse, and keyboard. When SaX2 initially starts up it asks you whether you want it to read in the current configuration or generate a default one. If your keyboard and mouse are working just fine, ask it to read your current config.
When Sax2 starts up, and it presents you with the option to change your mouse and keyboard configuration, just hit the "OK" or "NEXT" button (I can't remember what it is). When you get to the monitor configuration, then do what you need to do. Hope this helps.

Unless things really change, I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with you. The reason behind this can be summed up on one short story. I swear it's true...this is not a contrived example.
I have two friends who are seeing each other. They're both in my program, which is computer engineering so needless to say they're both geeks. Both of them have lived with Windows for their entire life. He has EXTENSIVE experience in Windows. This man knows his stuff. He's had many co-op terms based on troubleshooting windows systems and windows systems analysis. He's also high up on the ladder at the local IST company that manages most of the campus networks. My knowledge of windows could never hold a candle to his, and I've always considered myself a "power user." By contrast, she doesn't know her ass from her elbow about computers without the aid of a team of scientists (NOTE: you do NOT need to know shit about computers to be a computer engineer! We're all finishing up our second year and we have not and will not touch on desktop systems and how to use them). The poor girl has been using WinME since it came out and has sworn by it. Of course, as is typical of ME, it's been slowly eating itself up. Well it finally ate the foundation out from under itself because there was a spectacular crash in which she lost everything. She asked her boyfriend (windows pro) to install XP cause she heard it was stable. So over he came, popped in the CD, and within 15 minutes she was up and running. Very stable, very easy. She's barely done a thing to her system since it was set up because all her needs are met. She's experienced no confusion and is quite happy with her new system. This is from someone who gives you a confused look when you say the word "Registry." I've had similar reports from my Mom, who recently bought a new computer. She's just a typical user who uses the computer for web, email, office, and her design program (she owns a kitchen design company). Every now and then she marvels at how easy things are.
Back to my other friend. The windows pro. He's been talking about installing Linux lately and learning a little bit because it's "the thing to do lately." So off he goes to grab Mandrake 9: one of the most commonly recommended newbie distros. Later that night I am assaulted by a plethora of questions. He has NO idea what to do. He finished installing, and things seemed fine and dandy. He was able to surf the web and look up some documentation. Then he went to test out office suites. He was greeted with a landslide of choices. Our conversation went something along these lines:
Him: "Which is the best office suite?"
Me: "They all have strengths and weaknesses. KOffice integrates well with KDE, Gnome office suite with Gnome, and OpenOffice.org is more of a stand-alone product."
Him: "Well which is the standard?"
Me: "There's no real standard."
Him: "Fuck."
Him: "Ok...I found out where to get my ATI drivers (damn things weren't installed with the OS). How do I install them?"
Me: "Well you're using Mandy 9, so you have 3 options: rpm, tar.gz, and more recently .deb has been added."
Him: "So which is the best."
Me: "They all have strengths and weaknesses. It's up to you to try them all and decide which you like best."
Him: "Fuck."
This is a man who REALLY knows his shit about computers. He's a windows specialist and he knows more than I could ever dream of in hardware, but Linux really has him on the ropes. He's really doing well and trying to pick up as much as he can, but his patience is wearing VERY thin (we're in a demanding program...we DON'T have free time!). Every day he comes up to me with another Linux problem and all too often I'm forced to answer "there's no standard" or "it's kinda something you have to learn" or "ummm...that needs a kernel recompile." He asks questions like "why doesn't a program appear on the KMenu when I install it" and "there isn't any sort of uniform installer for linux like there is in windows is there? All I want is to double-click and have it installed!" and "why doesn't my video card work off the bat?" and "what are dependency issues?" That last one almost broke my heart. I'm afraid he's losing faith fast. I'm doing my best to help him out as much as possible, and pointing him to all the right places, but so far there's been nothing that linux can offer him that windows can't. Still not convinced? Try to find someone who knows nothing about either linux or windows. Tell them how to install a program in windows. Tell them how to install a program in linux. You see the difference, yes? When was the last time a command prompt was NEEDED in windows? I believe it was sometime before 1995.
So there you have it. Computer illiterates VERY happy with WinXP, computer pros struggling to learn Linux. Unless some standards are developed for linux and things are made A LOT easier for those just making the transition, the linux desktop markets are going to stay right where they are: carved out in their tiny little niche.
