It seems that there is a much larger range of caps etc. available to the US market than from our suppliers here - even colours are more limited here.
Is this just based on target audience sales numbers or are the US and UK suppliers different?
Hi Duncan,
We look at our headwear range based on the needs of our market and the feedback we have from retail partners is that we have the number of stock keeping units (SKUs), or lines, about right.
That said, for 2013 our headwear range will expand somewhat. We will offer a second SKU for the Tour Sports Mesh which will feature four new 'fashion' colours (Red / Blue / Lime / Orange). We will also split the ball marker cap into two SKUs meaning there will be 20 colour options available in that cap next year. There's also a new Ladies Pink Ribbon cap and Junior Sports Mesh option.
We continue to review the demand for Titleist headwear and give due consideration to the introduction of additional SKUs, and I will certainly pass on your comments to the product development team.
It's possible that it's the new range for 2013 which I was viewing on the .com site. Looking forward to the 2013 range with the arrival of the 913s and new accessories!
Hi Neil,
Do you know when the 2013 range of bags etc. will be available in golf shops?
It will be next January.
Will yous be bring out a fitted hat without the mesh at the back like the ones the pro's wear on tour a like the look of them thanks Alan
Hi Alan,
We will be continuing with the Sports Mesh as our fitted option next year in Europe - with a few more colourways and size variations.
will this include the Titleist Bucket & Aussie hats?
What about the Vokey Grips (Golf Pride Multicompound Grips) as shown on page 23 of the USA 2012 Accessories Catalog?
On page 113 of Gold Monthly they show the Titliest Dri-Hood towel, which up to now was only available in the USA. I checked with my regular golf shop and was told it will only be available till February 2013.
The information (not to mention missing prices) on the new 913 series has not been the best. 913F/Fd and 913H won´t be available till February 2013?
best regards
Hi Barry,
There are no Aussie or Bucket hats planned for next year, as we haven't really seen significant demand for them - although there is a waterproof bucket hat in the FJ range.
The Vokey grips are available, with a surcharge, on custom SM4 orders - or you can have them returned to us for re-gripping.
The Dri-hood Towel will be in stores from January 2013.
Could you give some more detail in terms of the information on 913 not being the best? The pricing is set by the retailers, so we cannot publish those prices. Fittings at our National Fitting Centres for 913 fairways and hybrids begins on 14 January and the "in-store" date is 8 February.
Hope this helps.
Good afternoon Neil, many thanks for your reply. as with a lot of Titleist fans, I will get someone to buy Bucket Hat for me in USA. I asked my golf store if they could get the Vokey Grips for me and was informed that they were not available in Europe. I don´t understand the different signals. Concerning info on 913. Via the website and golf mags we were led to believe that the 913 series would be available from 01 November. Now we know that this only applied to the Drivers. All Titleist websites show pricing, with the exception of the 913 series, which has nothing to do with the Retailers. best regards Barry
Hi Barry - apologies re: the grips, I was given some duff information. The Vokey grips should be available from December 1 for custom orders and for returns for re-gripping - we currently have a very limited supply in stock for WedgeWorks repairs.
You are right about SRP being on the site for other categories, but this rarely bares much resemblance to retail pricing in the UK, which is the preserve of retailers. I am, however, looking into whether we can update the web pages to include it.
We have tried to be very clear on our sites, when talking about the 913 series, that the 913 drivers would launch w/c 5 November and that 913 fairways and hybrids would follow in February. Similarly, when we briefed all of the European media in August, this was the information that they received (and, looking at the media coverage reports, how they reported it - with the exception of one trade magazine).
Best regards
I think I have done the same mistake, I have been looking at the .com site and looking the at some stuff for next year and thought it was a large collection. Then I tried again, looked on the .co.uk site and the stuff was missing. Went back to .com site and everything there. Would people/customers be able to order stuff for over here. I know I might sound a snob, but I insist on everything been Titleist etc.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Hi Michael,
The only way to purchase those items that are not in the UK / Europe line of accessories would be to order them via a US retailer.
Thanks again, no sign of them coming to the UK then? Is it something Titleist do every year? Ie certain items only for U.S and then some from the range for the U.K?

MANTECA — Sonora senior Ryan Puou walked off the field Friday night and wasn't angry after a 49-21 Valley Oak League-opening loss to Manteca. Or not like he was after each of the Wildcats first three football games.
"I feel a lot better with this loss," Puou said. "The others I was real mad. Right now, I'm feeling real good about this team. I think we got better today and we're gonna have a good year."
Puou spearheaded the Wildcats rushing attack, which had been plagued in its first three games by turnovers, against the Buffaloes. The co-captain broke out for 129 yards and two touchdowns on just 10 carries.
"Ryan was just killing it tonight, he's so fast," said Wildcat Zach Atwood, who made his first varsity start at quarterback. "He gets outside and he's just gone."
Puou's first touchdown tied the score after Wildcat linebacker Billy Kiriluk intercepted a tipped pass at the Manteca 47.
"I read pass, I saw him throw it and it got tipped up right to me," Kiriluk said.
Puou rushed for 21 yards and was horse-collared down setting up Sonora deep in Buffalo territory. Puou finished the drive with a 12-yard run causing a raucous sideline celebration.
"I got a great block by Kade (Barajas) and I just cut it up, ran straight for the front orange pylon," Puou said. "I couldn't believe it. At that point, I felt like we were in the game and there was no way they were gonna stop us now."
That happiness lasted until Manteca's Alex Laurel grabbed the ensuing kickoff. Laurel, gifted with explosive speed, raced 97 yards for a touchdown and a 14-7 lead.
Laurel was the Buffalo offense Friday, rushing for 180 of the team's 232 yards and four total touchdowns.
After Laurel scored his second TD to make it 21-7, Sonora put together one of its best drives of the season.
The Wildcats marched 80 yards on 13 plays, took 5:59 off the clock, and Atwood capped the drive with a 6-yard keeper. Barajas rushed for 25 yards and Puou 15.
Sonora was within striking distance at 21-14 with 5:43 left in the first half.
"Zach did really well," said Wildcat head coach Bryan Craig. "He made a couple mistakes in there as a junior but he really managed the offense well. He kept his nerves under wraps, and had none of the ball handling things that have happened in the past few games. I'm really proud of what he did for us tonight."
Manteca, well, Laurel, scored again just before the half to build a 28-14 lead going into the break.
The Buffaloes (3-1, 1-0 Valley Oak League) added to their lead with a third-quarter touchdown and then another at 8:16 in the fourth to take a 42-14 advantage.
Puou then electrified the Cats' sideline and fans with a 67-yard burst down the left sideline to make 42-21 with 7:54 left.
"We played our hearts out," Puou said. "I gotta give all my props to our line and our receivers, they kept all those big boys off me. From here, we need to learn from our mistakes but the main thing is to keep our heads up."
"We finally came together as a team," Atwood said. "With exception of a couple mistakes, giving the ball away, I think we beat them up front all night on offense. We were moving the ball, but we gave it up a couple of times. They're big, they hit hard and they are quick, but I still think we could've had them."
Sonora (0-4, 0-1 VOL), will return home on Friday after three consecutive road games. The Sierra Timberwolves come to Dunlavy Field and games in the past have been explosive offensively.
"Although the scoreboard doesn't indicate it, we got better today," Craig said. "I really feel that way. We know that team (Manteca) is a very good football team and they showed tonight, they're big and fast, just what we anticipated. What I was proud of tonight was our effort. Our kids went in there, they knocked heads, they tried and worked their butts off. And that's all we can ask of them. We're gonna build off this game rather than go back to the drawing board. My coaching staff and I all stood on the sideline as time ticked away and said, 'We got better tonight. We got something to build off of here.' We ran the ball pretty well against a really good football team. We were in it there but we made a few mistakes in the second half that let them get away."

Blackers, Carmen and Fitzi celebrate the station jumping to first place for the second time in a year. Photo: 96FM
There's a lot of celebrating going on in radio land this morning, but not in the usual places.
96FM general manager Martin Boylen has promised to pop the champagne corks after the rock 'n' rollers knocked radio juggernaut Mix 94.5 from its number one spot and locked away a significant lead.
And Nova is celebrating having the largest audience in Perth of 470,000 – its best ever result - and the first time its Nathan, Nat & Shaun breakfast show has come up trumps over Mix 94.5's The Bunch for two consecutive surveys.
720 ABC's Eoin Cameron has held onto his number one spot in breakfast, while the station sits in fifth place overall. Photo: 720 ABC
Eoin Cameron's breakfast offering at 720 ABC has maintained the overall number one breakfast show ranking.
With 96FM in the lead, Mix 94.5 fell into second place and the rest remained the same with Nova third, triple j fourth, 720 ABC fifth, 92.9 sixth, 6PR seventh and 6IX eighth.
Mix has long dominated the radio market in Perth and it's only the second time since the end of 1999 that they've been delegated to second place – 96FM momentarily jumped to number one at this time last year.

But this time, 96FM certain of holding onto the lead.
"I think we're planning on staying there as long as possible," Mr Boylen said.
"It's a much more competitive market, there's Mix and Nova have also improved.
The Bunch jumped 0.6 per cent and remained in third place.
"Anything could happen."
The station had won a throng of loyal listeners – while they only have the fourth largest audience, their audience is sticking around for longer.
"It's the result of a lot of hard work that we started 18 months ago," 96FM general manager Martin Boylen said, referring to the station's significant rebranding strategy.
"Its consistency - we've stayed on the path of 'keeping real music alive' and we havent deviated."
2. Mix 94.5 – 12.3
3. Nova 93.7 – 12.2
4. triple j – 10.8
6. 92.9 – 9.0
The station is in the unusual place of being number one overall, but having its breakfast show sitting in the number four spot.
"We're working with our breakfast team, they've had three rises in a row so they're certainly trending in the right direction," Mr Boylen said.
"I think it's our daytime listening that is just so strong.
"We're number one in the workday."
At 6PR the search continued for a drive replacement for shock jock Howard Sattler, following his high-profile sacking.
Sattler's former slot remained static in sixth place.
Mix 94.5, however, is certain of the same comeback they achieved last year.
"For us, the stigma of being number one for 90 million surveys left us last year so that was the monkey off our back," Guy Dobson, Southern Cross Austereo chief content officer, said.
"We bounced back last year and we're confident we'll do it again,"
The station sustained significant losses across the workday and into the evening – up to 2.5 per cent – and Mr Dobson said there were changes to be made.
"We certainly have a lot of work to do across the day with the music product," he said.
Sister station 92.9 failed to claw back any lead that has slowly been slipping away, falling into sixth place overall and seventh in breakfast.
Mr Dobson said it was difficult to tackle the large cash giveaways used by 92.9's main competitor Nova 93.7.
"We don't want to get dragged into cash wars and marketing wars," Mr Dobson said.
"Our marketing budget, our firepower, is way less than what it has been in the past.
"In terms of massive cash giveaways, we haven't been investing in that.
"Our opposition loves to throw cash around so we'll have to reassess."
The results for 92.9 were "disappointing".
"It's a work in progress," Mr Dobson said.
"We put it down to experimenting with the day part for a few years and also, the opposition has done a great job."
96FM and 6PR are owned by Fairfax, also the publisher of this website.

A judge set bond at $500,000 for Michael Byerrum, the man Grand Junction Police say snatched a little girl on Saturday.
Officers say around 8:30pm Saturday Byerrum kidnapped a little girl from in front of her home and threw her in his trunk.
According to the arrest affidavit, 40–year–old Byerrum pulled up to where the 10–year–old was playing with friends, got out of his car and asked the little girl to help him find his lost kitten.
Court documents say when she got close enough to the car, he picked her up, put her in his trunk, and drove off.
The little girl told Police Byerrum took her out of the trunk a little while later, threatened to cut her throat and tried to put a bandana over her face, but that's when she bit his nose and he threw her to the ground and drove off.
Officers found her wandering in the dark near the Department of Energy.
The 10–year–old girl then idetified Byerrum in a line-up.
Police arrested him just after midnight Sunday on charges of kidnapping, child abuse and menacing.
The little girl's mother tells 11 News despite what's happened, she's doing well.
Byerrum will be back in court next week for formal filing of charges.
Police sat Byerrum has quite the lengthy criminal history including three prior felony convictions. A judge convicted him for kidnapping in 1994 and he was still on probation for that case. Byerrum has more than a dozen other arrests in Colorado and Texas for burglary, assault, drugs and escape.

As a user, I've never understood the attraction of the T model, because it feels like a step down from a Rolleiflex Automat. But sometimes logic doesn't drive the market.
By the way, you got a great deal in the swap. Any Rolleiflex will always be memorable. A DSLR is forgettable as soon as the next model is released. Most digital cameras depreciate faster than a new car that's been driven off of the dealer's lot.

Authorities: Man said he was headed to kill Nancy Grace
PHOENIX (AP) -- A New York man indicted in Arizona on charges that he made Twitter death threats against two national TV commentators over their coverage of Jodi Arias, whom he claims to be in love with, told detectives he was on his way to kill one of them, authorities said Thursday.
Maricopa County sheriff's officers transported David Lee Simpson, 48, of Bath, N.Y., to Phoenix, where he was booked into jail Wednesday evening.
Bing: Nancy Grace confused with nanny in MJ trial
An Arizona grand jury indicted him July 18 on three felony counts of computer tampering and two counts of stalking.
According to a probable cause statement from the Sheriff's Office, Simpson began his tweets June 11 claiming he was responsible for the killing of Arias' boyfriend.
The threats against Nancy Grace and Jane Velez-Mitchell, both hosts of shows on Turner Broadcasting's HLN network, grew more serious June 12, the same day Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery said he planned to try again to secure the death penalty for Arias.
County authorities said Simpson told them late Wednesday "he was on his way to Georgia to kill Nancy Grace."
The man also indicated he had placed several pipe bombs in rural northern Pennsylvania, sheriff's spokesman Brandon Jones said.
Bath police investigator Heather Barry said Thursday investigators think Simpson's story of planting bombs is credible.
"Based on the specific details he's provided, we believe we're going to turn something up," Barry said.
She wouldn't elaborate because she didn't want to cause panic but said "they are not in a location where we think anybody is in immediate danger." Barry is working with police in Pennsylvania to locate the devices, which Simpson said he made in Bath then took over the state line about 30 miles to the south.
Jones said authorities are unaware of any connection between the death threats and the pipe bombs.
A jury convicted Arias of first-degree murder May 8 in the June 2008 death of boyfriend Travis Alexander at his suburban Phoenix home. The same panel later failed to reach a unanimous decision on whether to sentence her to life in prison or death.
Prosecutors now have the option of pursuing a new penalty phase aiming for the ultimate punishment, or avoiding it and leaving Arias with a life sentence.
Grace and Velez-Mitchell both regularly covered the nearly five-month trial. They focused heavily on Arias' guilt, which apparently angered Simpson, according to court records.
Simpson does not yet have an attorney.
Turner Broadcasting indicated both TV personalities wanted to pursue charges against the man, according to the probable cause filing. The network also increased its security and told authorities Grace and Velez-Mitchell were concerned for their safety, the filing states.
The court records indicate Simpson also used Twitter to threaten a Phoenix woman, who "stated she was scared to death."
Among the threatening Tweets was one aimed at Velez-Mitchell stating, "I will be waiting for you and Nancy" when Arias' retrial begins.
In the same string of Tweets, Simpson indicated he was in Arizona and threatened to "slit Nancy Grace's throat." Investigators found he was actually still in New York at the time of his tweets.
Maricopa County Sheriff's Office investigators tracked the Twitter account to Simpson and flew to New York to interview him June 25, but Simpson had not yet been placed under arrest.
"He provided a full confession and stated he posted everything on Twitter because he was in love with Jodi Arias and he wanted a life with her," according to the probable cause statement.
As the investigation continued, detectives received an email from Turner Broadcasting on July 15 that said Grace and Velez-Mitchell were again receiving threats from a person they believed to be Simpson.
"Can't wait see you in Arizona I'm excited," he wrote in one, according to the records.
Neither Grace nor Velez-Mitchell apparently responded to Simpson on Twitter, and Turner Broadcasting officials declined to comment.
Two days later, the records state, authorities in New York took Simpson into custody after co-workers at a garage where he worked told police he "had a loaded handgun, and stated he was going to kill Nancy Grace."
Barry said she had been searching for Simpson to charge him with aggravated harassment just to get him into custody. She said she then got a worried call from the garage owner.
"He said he (Simpson) was throwing stuff out, loading up the car, and he's got a gun," Barry said Thursday. "I flew over there before he left town and grabbed him. It was getting crazy."
She said she'll recommend dropping the misdemeanor harassment count, given the Arizona indictment. But she noted the New York investigation is ongoing.
On July 20, Bath and Maricopa County authorities searched a travel camper and car belonging to Simpson. They said they found two guns, a pair of handcuffs, several knives, binoculars, shotgun ammunition, a police scanner and receipts for purchases of two shotguns and a rifle.
Simpson was subsequently arrested. He is awaiting arraignment in Arizona set for Aug. 1.
Montgomery, the Maricopa County attorney, said Arizona has jurisdiction in the case because the threats were against "individuals for conduct that was occurring" in the state, meaning it stemmed from coverage of the Arias case by Grace and Velez-Mitchell, who both were at times in the county.

Has anyone used Letter It/ I am looking for some affordable software that will allow me to combined and merge individual letters into 3 letter monograms. I've looked at Embird but I think I would need to purchase the Embrid software plus the Font plug-in to do this which would be more expensive that Letter It. Was wondering if anyone had used it.
I'm a garment sewer who embroiders names and monograms on baby blankets for gifts and use Mongogram Works by Designers Gallery and love it. It has over 40 fonts and is super easy to use and manipulate around. Can't remember what I paid for it, but I know it was under $200. The website is designersgallerysoftware.com Tried to link it, but it wasn't working. I'm sure there are many good ones out there, but I've been completely satisfied with this. Good luck!
Just checked the website to be sure it is still being offered. I have the one called Monogram Works and it's $169.99
Agree. DG are very good products. This is the direct link.

Amazing designs also has a program "Monogram It". It allows you to make one through four letter monograms. I have been very pleased with it.
I also use the Amazing Design's Monogram It. I have Embird, PE-Design Next and all the Amazing Design software, but the Monogram It is by far the easiest to use.

I have the Letter It program and I have really enjoyed it. My boss bought it for me so I could do curved lettering for the back of a baseball cap. I really enjoy the Multi-Line text feature. It is very easy to use and it comes with some great fonts.

Introducing Alexander Pope. Broadway costume constructor. Project Runway Season 12 designer. And an elimination this season that came far too soon. Read on for our behind-the-scenes chat about the show, New York Fashion Week, and his upcoming mini collection.
Rue La La: Tell us about being on the show. What was the workroom actually like? Which designers did you enjoy working with?
Alexander Pope: Well, first off, the workroom was smaller than I thought it would be. But other than that, it's just a workroom, but not as stocked as it should be… just the basics for us. I enjoyed most of the designers, but I think Jeremy and I bounced ideas off of each other quite well – I tend to bond with the Brits more often, ha!
RLL: What was the best piece of advice you received from the judges?
AP: Nothing.
RLL: Okay then. The worst?
AP: Well it wasn't advice, per se, but once they found out I work on Broadway, I kept hearing the descriptor "costumey" a lot. Even when I'm looking at my design, completely confused about their comments because I made a twill gown or a silk bustier dress – clothing, in my eyes.
RLL: Speaking of Broadway – when you started on the show, were you afraid of being called out as a costume designer?
AP: That's exactly what I was afraid of. I had a feeling I was going to be pigeonholed as "just a costumer," and unfortunately I feel that happened. I've always known it's hard for designers to truly "go there" with their designs. I fortunately get to "go there" for a living, so I figured I'd be able to cut back and make it more wearable and commercial. I feel I did a good job with that. I mean, it's always easier to take a step back than take a step forward. I, my dear, have been stepping forward for decades, so it was a challenge for me to edit and simplify.
RLL: We saw you showed your gothic collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. What was that like?
AP: It was a blast! I was so nervous, and, honestly, sewing up to the eleventh hour! I knew I was going far and beyond what any of the other designers were doing, but that's what I do. I wanted to give them a show. Because, let's face it, 90% of what's on the runway isn't what's on the racks. But then, if you break down my collection, it's a couple of pairs of nice slacks, great shirts, a couple of gorgeous dresses, and a pair of shorts. It's wearable.
RLL: What do you think about your collection's reception – especially the idea that you "could be the next Alexander McQueen"?
AP: I could never be as talented as McQueen. He is untouchable. I wish for just an iota of his talent. I am flattered those words were flown around, but I find them incomprehensible.
RLL: Have you remained friends with judges, models, or fellow designers since filming ended?
AP: I've seen a couple of the models out and about, but I think I can say I've made good friends with some of the other designers on the show this season. I do talk to Jeremy, Sue, and Justin a lot. And I keep in touch with Helen, Dom, Kate, and Angela.
RLL: What's next? (And, just as important, is there anywhere we can purchase your designs?)
AP: Next is focusing on my collection and the future. As of right now, I am building an online shopping cart on my website AlexanderAPope.com for consumption, soon to feature a brand-new mini collection. But don't blink an eyelash, I shall be on racks soon enough…
We're counting on it.

1. Having a rather massive raspberry patch in our backyard. It is so fulfilling to, at the end of a day in the cement jungle, to walk into our yard and pick sun-sweetened rubies.
2. Flickers of light from fireflies as they float around me.
3. Finding Zoey's damn shoe after over an hour of searching ev.er.y.where. I am most grateful for this today. And also for not losing my shit when I was looking for the friggin' thing.

UFO Petition- Chief John Podesta on UFO disclosure
- Uploaded by Hibernate1908 on Nov 14, 2011
- Views: 14
Allow 200+ official witnesses (ex government, military and NASA) to stand before congress and prove ET's are real.
For the past 50+ years, president after president have lied to the American people and the world about the truth regarding an E.T presence. The Disclosure Project has some 200+ witnesses that have worked for NASA, The Government, Military and Black Operations who all have evidence to show that YOU THE GOVERNMENT are telling lies!
SO WE THE PEOPLE demand that all witnesses are allowed to stand before Congress and present their evidence to the country so that a full investigation can be carried out.
To refuse this is to only call these people liars. Including one of them is Dr Edgar Mitchell a former Astronaught who has been to the Moon! and the former Governor of Arizona. Are these people really liars?
The time has come to lay all cards on the table and finally end the Truth Embargo!

what makes me angry is that there are things that kill more people in this world than fireworks, yet that's what they're concerned about. i swear this country is ONLY about gettn' rid of what they don't like. they aren't doing it for anything noble like "the children" or "the people" but rather because THEY can't stand the noise... well, i got news for them.. i CANNOT stand loud cars comming by my house...
and to top it all off they have to be blaring something that isn't music out there speakers (i speak of rap, hip-hop and r&b) i HATE that. so, should they have to get rid of everything that can be added onto a car to make it louder? IMO if fireworks can't be so loud then vehicles shouldn't be, either... nor should speakers, etc.
there are plenty of more dangerous things out there than fireworks. (such as guns, drugs and alcohol) and the fact is they kill thousands whil fireworks kill how man (anyone have stats on it?)
usually it's stupid people gettn' killed or people who are too young to have them... so what should we do about this? IMO punnish paretns for neglagently STORING fireworks where their kids could get them.. and if someone gets killed by fireworks because of a stupid mistake, say "well that's their fault" i got it (and i'm being deadly serious about this) LETS BAND STUPID PEOPLE..
this one guy i knew wanted parents to take a TEST to see if they were smart enough to have a child.. maybe we should start doing this. and if they fail. their child should be given to a family who is smart enough to take care of a child. may seem cruel, but i've seen too many things happen becuase of irresponcible and stupid people.
*end rant*
ahhhhhhh, i feel a little better now.
Instead of trying to make PA change their laws, wouldn't it just be simpler for NJ to change their laws to be more fireworks friendly. Then they wouldn't have to deal with people crossing the border to get fireworks. And they might even have firework stores pop up in NJ. Just think of the tax revenue they would get if NJ people bought fireworks in NJ instead of PA.

As much as I dislike newsday I will give them credit this is the first time I can remember where they actually mentioned (however briefly) the permits pa citizens can get to shoot. Usually the ny media states that it is illegal for pa citizens to buy implying hypocrisy.
If you see me running, try to keep up!!
I personally would love it if PA's response the New Jerseys complaint was to legalize all Fireworks in PA...then New Jersey couldn't lean on the reasoning that PA won't allow sales to it's own residents. May not happen but I could see that happening before PA would let another State dictate and bully them into making law changes.
N.J. should pass the same type law as Pa., allow out of state people to purchase. Then all the Pa. folks can purchase in N.J.
Or both states could just grow up and allow sales to everyone!
Loud cars, speakers, etc. Do not pose a threat to them although, many politicians that are older do not like loud noises either so they have made it their pet peeve to go after those items of interest as well. They try to ban loudspeakers and different mufflers etc.
As far as the item that are far more dangerous than fireworks. All of the mentioned items (guns, alcohol, and drugs) are not any more or less dangerous than fireworks when used in an appropriate manner. Guns in fact have a far better record than alcohol simply because people cannot control themselves. Should we ban alcohol? I do not think so.
Should we make parents responsible for their children? Sure. Parent's of today do not discipline their children like our parents did and their parents did before that. Once again, politicians have to stick their nose into that as well, they created laws stating that you cannot hit your children and have created child protective services, not to mention the CPSC, both of which are a total waste of our tax dollars.
As far as the banning of stupid people, I would say that natural selection would take care of them eventually. Testing people to see if they are smarter than others are just seems like a bad idea.
As free American's we used to enjoy many more liberties than we do today. The amount of government interaction in our daily lives has increased dramatically over the past fifty years with the birth of new technologies such as video surveillance and wireless communication. The more items that the politicians get laws to govern over the more they feel safe to do whatever may be next on their agenda. If this kind of action continues, this country will eventually turn into a socialist dictatorship.
As far as this subject goes, I belive that fireworks should be legal everywhere and that both of the states need to change their laws to become more firework friendly.

why dont we just ban driving & walking down the street while we are at it....sickening!
Your very concept was also put forth by one of the show hosts. In general the theme was a refreshing one to actually hear voiced in such a grand forum. Basically summing up how stupid it was for NJ to get into PA's business. The point was also made about how tax hungry NJ could clean up if they just allowed sales in state.
I had hoped to call into the show to inject some pro-fireworks facts but alas was too late, Some informative callers did make it through though. I don't recall hearing one anti-fireworks person.
Just curious, was it the Jersey Guys? They seem to do a good job at tackling issues that are not politically correct. Whoever they are, I am grateful that they are starting a public discussion about this.

Welcome to New Jersey Where Fun Comes to Die!
Jersey's problem, and NY as well, is not Pennsylvania. PA has been selling fireworks legally for YEARS, way before the out of state companies came in. The firework enthusiast from those states have traveled not just to PA for their 'works but also to Ohio, and New Hampshire, and of course down south. Pennsylvania had a window open for out of staters, now the doors are open.
Years ago Missouri had tents on the borders of states like Kansas, because fireworks WERE illegal to those residents. Kansas is now a fireworks friendly state.
Getting to the article written: Journalist have an obligation to report the truth, not just one side. 5 states currently ban fireworks, not 14 as mentioned in the article. And Pennsylvanians can purchase fireworks, fountains and novelties with out any hassle, and the "good ones" with a permit.
NJ should start looking in their own backyard. There are companies in NJ right now selling to out of state residents with an out of state drivers license including NY residents.
I already spoke at lenght in the laws & politics section on this very subject a few days ago. I fired off an email to rep baroni who was doing alot of the talking in the article I read. I point out several Factual errors commited by the newspaper and himself in the article. Still waiting for a reply.
"Should we ban alcohol? I do not think so."
i think we should ban it... i don't believe a majority of americans are responcible enough to handle it. from what i see on TV and in my personal life leads me to think this. and the penalty for drinking it, selling it and making it should be 15 lashings.... i'm just so sick of people who don't drink/arne't drinking paying the price for others' mistakes/irresponcibility.
Kellners, North East, Phantom in Warfordburg, Us at Kneppy's, Lotus near Harrisburg, Mess's and others has done legal sales to non residents for years! Probably Kellners is the oldest in Pa.
But the wording "shipped out of state" has always been a controversial issue. Now that the law says in plain English, black and white that non-residents can now buy fireworks when they provide proof of non-residency and they "take it out of state" now everyone wants a piece of the action! Us older companies who did this in the past before new law of 2004 did this for nothing as far as paying high license fees etc.
So why has NY and NJ lurking in these honest business folks parking lots and busting everyones chops?? They always have done spot checks across GW bridge and other main highways!
Still makes me mad - if i had a business on the Jersey border, i would be spitting nails!
PS - there i had my rant for the day.

I wish he could get the ear of NJ legislators, but as a person who was censured by the NJ legislature, among other things, they'd be the last to listen to his ideas. That is unless there was more obvious pro-fireworks support from the average voting Jerseyan.
NJ targets fireworks sold in Pa... yea but then why is there a huge billboard sign on the NJ turnpike right past the EZ Pass toll on the southbound side by exit 16 I believe. By the way, the sign is for SKYKING FIREWORKS!!! (1st exit off rt 78 into Pa)

Just an update I thought intesting - Baroni is no longer rep. He is now Sen. elect -
This was from an emial I received this week form one of our Harrisburg contacts.Assemblyman Bill Baroni won in his bid for the Senate seat that opened up because of the retirement of Senator Peter Inverson. Baroni won by 11,000 plus votes.

Being inducted into the Wisconsin Track Coaches Association Hall of Fame is meaningful to Pat Prochnow for endless reasons.
In short, it represents a life's work of coaching at a school Prochnow adored. A 35-year run at Green Bay Preble that consisted of 10 individual state championships, 23 conference titles and 25 regional titles, including 20 consecutive prior to his retirement after the 2010-11 school year.
The foundation of the program was built on the relationship between coaches and athletes, and no friendship meant more to Prochnow than his bond with fellow coach and mentor Jack ...

As most readers know, I love to travel and I've had the good fortune to do so fairly extensively; however, northern Europe was never high on my travel bucket list. I seem to have preferred repeat visits to Mediterranean countries or warm weather climes … countries where the language was familiar to my ear, where I knew the food would tickle my palate and the wines would go down easy. But this trip changed my mind … forever. Continue Reading
Perhaps its because I lived most of my life in NYC, but when I visit now I seem to have a penchant for eating at restaurants that are either new, trendy, ethnic and/or funky-fun. Most of them seem to be in lower Manhattan which suits me well because that's where I usually am. Continue Reading
Now that I've whined about my travel experience on my recent trip to Quebec City, I feel better so I'm happy to share some of the highlights; most importantly, a reunion of my travel gal pals.
Quebec is a lovely and picturesque city to visit but, with all due respect, there is a reason you don't find Canadian restaurants in every corner of the world … Continue Reading
Barcelona is a fabulous city with much to offer the visitor. See how nice they are? They named a restaurant on their popular pedestrian La Rambla for me.
The city is, in fact, a wonderful mosaic of art, history, language, architecture, old/new, city/beach, culture and gastronomy. So what better way to present my most recent trip than in photo mosaics (besides I couldn't choose between all my photos).
While returning to Montecatini from a trip to Pisa, I had time to reflect on my travels in Italy. I realized that over the years I've visited close to 25 cities — and about three-quarters of them more than once (Florence 3x, Rome 3x, Venice 2x, Montecatini 2x, Pisa 2x, Lucca 2x, etc.) You get the idea. Amazing, isn't it?
And, while I probably won't go back again next year, I am in no way done with Italy. Continue Reading

Tuna Tartare on Crispy Rice with Chipotle Mayo
Vacationing in a tropical place like Puerto Rico offers distinct and varied dining opportunities. I've written before about eating and mixing it up with the locals on their beautiful beaches or in the mountainous countryside and quaint towns…so I thought it was time to showcase the high-end resort side of dining in Puerto Rico, compliments of Chef Wilo Benet who has not one, but two, restaurants in the Conrad Condado Plaza Resort. I had the pleasure of enjoying tasting menus at each.
There are many things that set this Chef apart. He's genuinely nice, almost renaissance-like in all his artistic endeavors, and he's a top-notch chef who presents creative contemporary dishes with native roots. You'll see what I mean. Continue Reading
Puerto Rico, La Isla del Encanto (the island of enchantment), has had me under its spell my entire adult life. Although, like life, the trajectory of 'our' relationship has peaked and ebbed and taken a variety of turns over the years.

Food -or- Travel. I don't know which I love more. Probably 'travel' because you still get to eat and often it's exotic or, at the very least, different. Even when I worked full-time in the canyons of corporate America, I found a way to travel 3-4X a year. Now that I don't have to clear scheduling with anyone but myself…
Travel List for first 6 months of 2011:
February, Puerto Rico √
April, Orlando for blogging conference √
May, New York √
June, family vacation cruise to Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama √
I'm leaving a couple of tasty tidbits for readers, but may otherwise be incommunicado until I return. Hope the next week is smooth sailing for all of us!

Denny Forst was a great husband, father and American veteran - my veteran - and I miss him very much.
He was in the U.S. Navy for 10 years and was very proud of these years. We were married after his first year and lived in five naval ports. He would be gone anywhere from five to seven months at a time. He was a very good father to our son and daughter, but knew he was missing out on a lot of their life and decided to leave the Navy.
When he served in both the Korean and Vietnam wars, life was different from now, as we had no cellphones or Internet, so we would go months with no contact, just our letters. Still, they ...

'The Rise Guys' Mark Kreidler and Whitey Gleason Return
The "Rise Guys" are back—well at least two-thirds of them.
Mark Kreidler and Whitey Gleason are set to begin hosting an afternoon show on ESPN 1320 AM in Sacramento starting on July 28. The show will be on the air from 2pm to 6pm.
Brian Lopez, the program director at ESPN 1320 is certainly excited to have the veterans in the fold, as he explained via the Sacramento Bee.
"We're so thrilled to have The Rise Guys. It's a perfect show for what we're trying to accomplish. On the local level, they're like Mike & Mike in the Morning, where they give each other barbs, are informative and entertaining. It fits our brand."
The move has apparently been in the works for some time.
"We've waited a long time exploring ideas, waiting for a good opportunity, and this gives us a very strong lineup."
Kreidler and Gleason, who previously hosted The Rise Guys on 95.7 FM The Game with Dan Dibley, were inexplicably axed from the station's lineup back in March. Like 95.7 The Game, ESPN 1320 is owned by Entercom Communications. There is currently no online streaming option for the show, but ESPN 1320 tweeted, "We're on it."
Both Kreidler and Gleason sound ready to be back on the airwaves, via their Twitter accounts.
Thank you all!! So happy to be #RiseGuysBackInSac RT @TrendsSacto: Mark @markkreidler is now trending in #Sacramento http://t.co/Ag37dO3wi7 — Mark Kreidler (@MarkKreidler) July 8, 2014
Very excited to be coming back to Sac with @MarkKreidler @ESPN1320 but if Rise Guys are in afternoon drive, shouldn't we be Rides Guys? — Whitey Gleason (@whiteygleason) July 8, 2014
Kreidler also weighed in on his new gig in an audio announcement posted on the ESPN 1320 website.
"I think in the end we both got what we really wanted, which is a chance to be back in a place that we've both called home for such a long time. And honestly, feel pretty lucky to be doing this. So, it's going to be a great, great, fun ride."
There's still no news on where Dibley will end up.by

NEW YORK -- The Detroit Red Wings could have their captain back for Saturday's home game against Carolina.
They certainly need him.
Nicklas Lidstrom will miss his 11th straight game Wednesday when the slumping Red Wings play the Rangers at Madison Square Garden (7:30 p.m. ET, NBCSN, TSN2). He's been out while dealing with the pain of a bone bruise in his right ankle, but Lidstrom skated for the third straight day Wednesday and said he feels he finally has turned the corner in his frustratingly long recovery.
"I can pivot better today, skate and push a little bit more," Lidstrom said. "A week ago out in L.A., when I skated out there, it was too sharp of a pain -- just that stabbing pain where I couldn't walk with my skate. That's a lot better. It still hurts turning and pivoting, when I put pressure on that point, but that sharp pain is not there like it was a week ago."
Defense - DET
"It's always hard sitting on the sidelines, and when the team is not playing well you want to be there to help the team, be a part of the team, be in the locker room," Lidstrom said. "It's frustrating when you can't be a part of that."
Lidstrom is just the biggest name on the Red Wings' new MASH unit. They also will be without goalie Jimmy Howard (groin), backup goalie Joey MacDonald (back), center Darren Helm (knee), right wing Johan Franzen (back), defenseman Jonathan Ericsson (wrist) and defenseman Jakub Kindl (upper body) against the Rangers.
Ty Conklin, who was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids and cleared waivers at noon ET on Wednesday, will start Wednesday, while Jordan Pearce will serve as his backup. Conklin did not skate Wednesday morning.
Ericsson will miss his 11th straight game and Kindl his eighth, but both were on the ice with Lidstrom and Pearce for Detroit's optional morning skate at the Garden. Ericsson, who fractured his wrist Feb. 25 against Colorado, said he finally was able to put a little power into his shots, and that next Wednesday's game at Columbus is a realistic target date for his return.
"I don't want to say too much because the trainers and doctors have to have their say, too," Ericsson said, "but from what I'm feeling and the progress we've had, I feel so."
Franzen, who has missed the last two games, was getting treatment for his back Wednesday morning and said he is not targeting any return date yet. Helm is out for at least the rest of the regular season after hurting his knee last week at San Jose. Howard is dealing with a flare-up of his groin problems, which forced him to miss three games earlier this month. MacDonald has sciatic pain down his left leg.
"A week ago out in L.A., when I skated out there, it was too sharp of a pain -- just that stabbing pain where I couldn't walk with my skate. That's a lot better. It still hurts turning and pivoting, when I put pressure on that point, but that sharp pain is not there like it was a week ago." -- Nicklas Lidstrom
Detroit's medical staff has been in constant contact with him, basically monitoring his every move. Lidstrom said the trainers are concerned that if he plays too soon he could suffer a setback, but it's a double-edged sword because the only way he can tell if he's ready to go is if he at least pushes himself in practice, which is what he's been doing.
"They want me to be careful with it, not gamble with it," he said. "I still want to push myself and see how hard I can skate out there."
Most important to Lidstrom is getting back in a groove before the playoffs begin. Time, of course, is running out as the Red Wings will have eight games left after playing the Rangers on Wednesday.
"You want to get some games in before the playoffs start to get back to game tempo and game situations," Lidstrom said. "On the other side, you don't want to get hurt again and take a couple steps backward. You want to be careful with it, but you have to test it out, try it, see how it feels."

This morning when I checked the news about the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, I saw many people on Twitter reporting that the Indian police or government had asked Twitter users to please stop reporting on police and military operations related to the attacks.
That struck me as odd. I've heard police and military make similar requests of news organizations (especially live TV) during crisis situations — but asking social media users for this sort of self-censorship? It seemed not merely futile, but perhaps a bit draconian.
It also occurred to me that such an official request might be a milestone in the evolving power dance of the police/military, professional press, and the public. What precedent could this set for future police/public interactions during other kinds of events — like political demonstrations, natural disasters, or food riots?
So I dug into this, and I'm blogging what I'm learning. So far, it's still unknown whether India's government, military, or police specifically included Twitter or other social media in this kind of request.
However, this has proved to be a "teachable moment" in the current state of media literacy. It shows which kinds of skills news organizations might help impart to internet users — and learn from them.
1. Check the source BEFORE you share info. Twitter users especially are fond of "retweeting" (copying and redistributing) news and interesting tidbits posted by others. This is often done with lightning speed, and sometimes not much thought. If you see someone post something that sounds "retweet-able" on Twitter, first check to see if they cite a source — and even more usefully, a link. (This includes links to individual Twitter posts. Every public tweet gets a permalink.) If not, send an @reply to ask about the source. You may get a fast response.
But if your source request gets no response (or a vague one), be careful! If you think this news is so time-sensitive and possibly crucial that it must be shared immediately, take care to say that it's an unconfirmed report.
This is even more important if you're a news organization reporting what you just heard on Twitter. The BBC update timeline on the Mumbai attacks included this entry: "1108 [GMT] Indian government asks for live Twitter updates from Mumbai to cease immediately. 'ALL LIVE UPDATES – PLEASE STOP TWEETING about #Mumbai police and military operations,' a tweet says."
…So far, BBC has not clarified or elaborated this point — perhaps leaving the impression that this is reliable information.
2. Include key hashtags when making queries or corrections. This will allow all Twitter users following the hashtag to see that you're raising questions or correcting outdated or incorrect reports. Otherwise, your efforts might only be visible to the people who already follow you. Especially if you're trying to point out that a popular rumor is unsubstantiated, use the hashtag. (As I reported yesterday, the most popular hashtag for this unfolding story is #mumbai.)
3. Encourage people spreading a rumor to correct or update. On Twitter, one good way to do this is to monitor the hashtag stream for new occurrences of the rumor. Then, send those people an @reply to let them know there's new information. If you have a blog, put up a quick post that explains why the information in question is unfounded, inaccurate, or outdated, and include a link to that blog post in your tweet. Since Twitter is very much an in-the-moment medium, it's usually more effective to correct fresh repetitions of a rumor than older ones. More people will notice, and that can dampen the ripple effect (or start newer, more accurate ripples).
4. Accept that not everyone thinks like a journalist — or wants to. It's probably counterproductive to denigrate or chastise social media users who unthinkingly spread rumors. Just accept that they are playing a growing role in the media landscape, and help them to be responsible. With guidance and good examples, nonjournalists can learn to be more discerning and useful. Social media users who get known for checking out reports and not spreading misinformation tend to become more influential, so there are ripple effects to consider here, too. Investing a little time to "mentor via tweet" can build relationships that help everyone.

FatCat Records Podcast #87 - Les Inrockuptibles
JD from Les Inrockuptibles has put together this mix for us.
"I started on cassettes, went on to mini-disc, then CD-R, then USB keys, then streaming playlists.
As far as I remember, I have always made compilations, with passion & love. I have sent mixtapes that said more about me and my feelings that the longest love letters. Songs have have always spoken more elequently than me - I leave them to do the talking.
When we started Les Inrocks magazine some 26 years ago, the idea was to put faces on these tracks : each month, we interviewed the musicians we loved, put these interviews together and turned our mixtape into a mag! This mixtape is what I would have taken for a boat trip from Brighton beach.
There is no logic, no hierarchy, no connections : just a starting point and then a trip into my record collection.
Oh dear, it sounds melancholic, again!"

Jamaica to continue sprint dominationComment on this story
London – Jamaica's sprint kings will enter the home stretch of their golden Olympic campaign on Friday after Usain Bolt's historic defence of his 100m and 200m crowns.
A day after Bolt sprinted into the pantheon of Olympic legends by becoming the first man to win back-to-back 100m and 200m titles at consecutive Games, Jamaica's men return to the track for the 4x100 relay.
Bolt, who led a Jamaican 1-2-3 in Thursday's 200m final, may be rested for the opening round of the relay, although the Caribbean islanders should qualify for the final with ease given their awesome strength in depth.
With the pressure off after completing his "double-double", Bolt is targeting more glory in the relay, aiming to sign off with a world record.
"I think there's a possibility," Bolt said, when asked if the existing best mark of 37.10sec could be under threat.
"But you can never really say it, because it's a relay and there's a baton. You never know. But for me, we're going to go out, enjoy ourselves, run as fast as possible. It would be a good way to close the show again."
Jamaica's women's 4x100m relay squad meanwhile are determined to atone for their disastrous performance in the 2008 final, where a bungled changeover almost certainly cost them a gold medal.
The Jamaican quartet – anchored by 100m winner Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce – qualified fourth fastest for the final, where they will battle powerful teams from the United States and Russia.
In other athletics action on Friday, the United States one-lap specialists will aim to extend their astounding record in the 4x400m relay, where they remain unbeaten on the track since 1984.
Other medals to be decided in the Olympic Stadium on Friday include the women's 5,000m final, where Ethiopian distance legend Tirunesh Dibaba seeks to defend her crown, and the men's pole-vault, where reigning champion Steve Hooker of Australia is favourite.
In men's basketball, the United States and Russia could set up a dream final of the former Cold War rivals with semi-final wins over Argentina and Spain respectively.
Women's hockey sees Argentina take on the Netherlands in the gold medal match on a day when 17 medals will be decided.
The first gold medals of the day came in swimming and sailing.
Tunisia's Oussama Mellouli survived a late surge from his rivals to claim the men's 10km swimming marathon, becoming the first person to win Olympic titles in both pool and open water races following his 1,500m win in Beijing.
Australians Mathew Belcher and Malcolm Page won the men's 470 Olympic sailing gold with New Zealand's Jo Aleh and Olivia Powrie taking the women's 470 title.
Meanwhile, the Games was hit by another drugs test failure when French 5,000m runner Hassan Hirt was reported to have tested positive for the banned blood booster EPO.
A source told AFP that Hirt, who was eliminated in the heats of the event, failed a drugs test on August 3 and had been suspended. – Sapa-AFP

|Symmetric band structures and asymmetric ultrafast electron and hole relaxations in silicon and germanium quantum dots: time-domain ab initio simulation.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 19904435 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE
|State-of-the-art time domain density functional theory and non-adiabatic (NA) molecular dynamic simulations are used to study phonon-induced relaxation of photoexcited electrons and holes in Ge and Si quantum dots (QDs). The relaxation competes with productive processes and causes energy and voltage losses in QD solar cells. The ab initio calculations show that quantum confinement makes the electron and hole density of states (DOS) more symmetric in Si and Ge QDs compared to bulk. Surprisingly, in spite of the symmetric DOS, the electron and hole relaxations are quite asymmetric: the electrons decay faster than the holes. The asymmetry arises due to stronger NA coupling in the conduction band (CB) than in the valence band (VB). The stronger NA coupling of the electrons compared to the holes is rationalized by the larger contribution of the high-frequency Ge-H and Si-H surface passivating bonds to the CB relative to the VB. Linear relationships between the electron and hole relaxation rates and the CB and VB DOS are found in agreement with Fermi's golden rule. The faster relaxation of the electrons compared to the holes in the Ge and Si QDs is unexpected and is in contrast with the corresponding dynamics in the majority of binary QDs, such as CdSe. It suggests that Auger processes will transfer energy from holes to electrons rather than in the opposite direction as in CdSe, and that a larger fraction of the photoexcitation energy will be transferred to phonons coupled with electrons rather than holes. The difference in the phonon-induced electron and hole decay rates is larger in Ge than Si, indicating that the Auger processes should be particularly important in Ge QDs. The simulations provide direct evidence that the high-frequency ligand modes on the QD surface play a pivotal role in the electron-phonon relaxation dynamics of semiconductor QDs.

Small amounts of compounds such as methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and water have also been detected. It is the mixture of these chemical compounds and elements that have contributed to the colorful layers of clouds as seen from earthbound telescopes.
Clouds of ammonia, which are visible on the planet's surface, form a collection of parallel bands. Dark bands called belts alternate with the light-colored ones, which are known as zones. It is the zones that are believed to be made of ammonia. It is not known what causes the the dark bands though.
You may have noticed dots and circles within these bands; the largest of which being the Great Red Spot. These circles are vortices and storms that continue to rage in the Jupiter's highly unstable atmosphere. The vortices can be either cyclonic or anticyclonic. Cyclonic vortices typically have centers that have lower pressures than their surroundings. Anticyclonic ones, on the other hand, have centers with higher pressures than their surroundings.
The Great Red Spot is of the anticyclonic type and since we have been seeing it even in the earliest images of Jupiter, continues to persist through time. It is so huge that it can be observed even from earthbound telescopes. Scientists have yet to discover what causes its reddish color.
Another large red spot, which was first seen in 2000, is steadily increasing. Like the Great Red Spot (GRS), it is also reddish and anticyclonic. Because of its similarities with GRS, this red spot (which bears the official name Oval BA) is often called "Red Spot Jr", "Red Jr", or "The Little Red Spot".
Unlike the vortices, which persist for longer durations, storms are more short-lived. Many of them can exist for months but, on the average, they can only last for about 4 days. The occurrence of storms in the atmosphere of jupiter have been observed to reach a climax every 15-17 years. That means, the storms are strongest at the end of these periods.
These storms are accompanied by lightnings, much like here on Earth. Interestingly, like here on Earth too, Jupiter also exhibits polar lightning, i.e., lightnings that strike at the poles. No other planet is known to have this characteristic.
We have some articles in Universe Today that are related to Jupiter's atmosphere. Here are two of them:

Xbox 360 Repair Guide – The Original 3 Red Light Fix Guide!
- Are you are looking for Xbox 360 Repair Guide which really works?
- Do you want a easy solution to fix your Xbox 360 because you are not very techincal?
- Are you tired of using s0 called tips and looking for real solution to repair Xbox 360?
- Do you want to save money by repairing your xbox360 by yourself?
- Are you looking for guaranteed results?
If You Said "Yes" to anyone of the above question, then You're in the Right Place! KEEP READING!!
There are a lot of common problems that a lot of people tend to face with their Xbox 360. A lot of people want to repair these problems all by themselves but the problem is that they are unable to find a good Xbox 360 Repair Guide.
Why should you repair your Xbox 360 by yourself?
You have an option to send it back to Microsoft to get it repaired for you, but it will cost you too much. But if your Xbox 360 is under warranty, and you are willing to pay the shipping charges of %140, then you can opt this choice. Keep in mind that you will have to wait for weeks and may be for months to get it back refurbished. Even if the Xbox is under warranty, you still have to pay for the return shipping charges which will at least cost you twenty five dollars. You have a great headache, thinking of how you should pack it safely and secure it for the long journey.
You find that the green light has just turned to red and you assume that now your good days of playing the Xbox games are over unless you find someone to repair the Xbox 360 console for you.
In this situation, you must be looking for some quick fix for the Xbox console to get rid of that frustrating red light problem.
So What is a solution or Option for you?
If you are just left with no option, the final option that you are left with is to disassemble the console yourself and fix it fast, at your own. It is nothing new that you are going to do. Since the Xbox 360 first came out, gamers have been doing this at their own. I know what you are thinking right now?
You have no clue how to do it and you don't want screw it up. I totally agree with you but its not that hard either. Just in case if you have missed that video, here it is again:
Was that really hard to open the console? Its dam to easy, right?
Just imagine, if you will get a complete guide like this to guide you step by step through every process to fix your xbox 360, wont you be able to do it easily by yourself?
Are you rich enough to pay $140 to Microsoft for this repair?. Well, I know what you are thinking right now that cost would be very high if you will send it to Microsoft.
Well, i was in the similar situation few months back when i got 3 RED light issue in my XBOX 360 and i was like
DON'T RUIN MY GAMING EXPERIENCE!!!! For God sake!!!
I found a solution in the form of James Dean's XBOX 360 Repair Guide. I know some of you might be thinking that ok here go, this is just another product to sell some crappy guide which never works for anyone. To be very honest, this is what i was thinking too when i first saw it.
But you know what really pushed me to give it a try? Guess what!
IT OFFER 60 DAYS MONEY BACK GUARANTEE and if you get it now it will just cost you just $29.95.
Just imagine, if you would send to Microsoft, you would pay $140 plus shipping and handling charges and here you are not paying even one third of it and getting a 60 days money back guarantee. If you will not be satisfied with it, you can return it and get your money back but I am sure it will work for you because it has worked for me and this has encouraged me to write about it to help everyone around me.
Give it a try – you have money pack guarantee, you will never lose your money.
Well it has helped lots of people, if you are still not satisfied and want to see how it works, have a look at this following image tutorial:
Now you have got a clue about what you will get after purchasing this product, let me quote exactly what Jame Dean says about money back guarantee. Just to make you clear that I am not just saying it to sell this product.
After using this XBOX 360 repair guide, here is one of my friend who created this video testimonials for James Dean. I am sure after using this guide, you will create a testimonial for me too

Innovation isn't always easy to come by in certain video game genres, and the JRPG realm is often considered to be hindered by the concept just as often as it is helped by it. That stated, developer Idea Factory decided to take a less-is-more approach with the strategy JRPG Generation of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection and the result is fresh and surprisingly interesting.
The game takes place in a magical land where dark clouds blanket the withered skies and block out the sun; cracked earth and choking fog rule the land. This colorless world, showing no signs of life, is known as Hades. The land is barren; blasted by chilling winds that cut to the bone. It's too bad that, outside of the birds-eye-view players get during battles, you don't actually get to see any of it (more on this later). This game's main heroes (Yuri, a young girl cursed with a disease draining her life away; and Claude, her protective older brother who will stop at nothing to save her) travel in search of a cure and find themselves embroiled in a conflict that will determine the fate of not just the siblings, but of the world itself.
While the game's writers mostly play it safe (there are few, if any, surprises to be had), the story really drives this game forward and dialogue-heavy sequences take place of pretty graphics and CG sequences. It's importance is further thrust upon the player after finishing each of the game's chapters as the game recaps all of the major events of that chapter -- something that's nice in case it's been a while since the player had fired up the game and may have forgotten some of the why's, what's, and who's of it all.
When it comes down to actual gameplay, Generation of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection features an active-time battle system, in which players can move and position their units in real-time across sweeping battlefields. The player and the I.A. both have units (a finite maximum number of which can be deployed at any one time) and those units are given orders by their controller as far as where to go. Are there strategic points on the battlefield that need to be captured and/or held? Well, you'd best get your unit there before opposing units get to it first. There are different unit types as well as different terrain types, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. While it can get a bit convoluted at times, the system as a whole works so long as the player is paying well enough attention to it all.
Once actual combat ensues, things change greatly as far as what one might expect from any sort of RPG (JRPG or otherwise). While fights are turn-based, they're not done in the way that players are used to. Rather than choosing commands ("Fight", "Magic", "Item", etc.), the player chooses one of that unit's equipped weapons with which to attack the enemy as different weapons hold advantages over others and visa-versa. Then, actions turn into a semi-quick-time event with the player needing to press "X" at just the right time in the right pattern as shown on the screen. A good, strong attack could lead to the player's other units joining in on the fray by providing additional bonus attacks of their own. It's a different and novel approach and, due to the way the game's set up presentation-wise, actually works fairly well.
There are also summons that the player will eventually have access to. Summons are done directly from the battlefield itself rather than during combat. The different summons, of course, do different things with some healing units, others damaging enemies, and others still doing temporary status effects such as briefly disabling all of the enemies on the field of play. Like combat itself, how Generations of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection handles summon mechanics is different; yet seems to work satisfactorily.
Alchemy is another major (and we do mean major) part of this game, though it's not like the alchemy that gamers will find in Level-5's Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch or Gust's Atelier games. Rather, players accumulate alchemy" points" through battles in addition to traditional experience points. Alchemy points can then be used to give characters additional experience points towards their next level, upgrading equipment, healing injured characters, and so on. Players who find themselves a little light on available A.P. shouldn't worry, as there is always the option to grind out some extra credit by doing a "free battle".
Presentation is where Idea Factory's less-is-more approach becomes the most apparent. Simply put, there are no towns to explore, no overland map to traverse, and nothing really in the way of CG sequences or animations. Rather, everything is done through dialogue screens that feature nicely-done anime-style character art and text bubbles. It might sound boring, but it works better than you might think; and older, more mature gamers will likely appreciate it better this way. Still, it would be nice to have some sort of animated sequence play here and there to break up all of the voiced text forced upon the player.
Generation of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection is, at its core, an nontraditional take upon a traditional JRPG game. While it's not something one would want to see in the majority of JRPGs, Idea Factory's semi-minimalistic approach seems to work this time around. As a title that should fit well into people's budgets (it retails on the PlayStation Store for $19.99), there is plenty of value to be had in this better-than-expected title.
Version tested: PS Vita (also available on PSP)

Posted in: Rock by Daniel Shaw on June 5th, 2008 | 1 Comment
A countdown spanning five decades and paying homage to the best players of the bass guitar in the wide tradition that is rock "n" roll.
An iconic bass intro for a song that loses little of its iconic status even on the record, where it is bereft of violin-bow antics. Jones later immaculately holds together Page's solo sequence.
Simple, and often obscured by the most persistent of Page riffs and Plant's best sequence of wailed innuendos, but this simplicity is its genius.
Never mind the fact that it isn't an original part, it walks at the perfect times for this song.
The first complex line on the list; Lee harmonises with Lifeson's guitar with the crispest of bass sounds.
With a sound thick enough for wallowing, as one would in mud, the Wobster provides both solidity and melody in a Krautrock-new wavey sort of way.
As melodic as it is fast, the bass intro kickstarts the song that arguably started Muse's rise to their current status – a band that can and will sell out Wembley Stadium.
Keyboards shimmer and the guitar provides a simple, if unusual, sort of melody, but the driving bass gives a sense that the song is constantly moving forward – at speed, but also under complete control.
Following the rhythm of Marr's superb guitar part, Rourke pounds out a bass melody that inspired a decade of musicians, and walks superbly as Morrissey explains that "he knows so much about these things…."
During the verses and chorus Entwhistle's bass is insistent and has enough power to keep West London lit up for a great many years. During his solo sequence, it is flash and funky, before the power returns. Classic.
Rarely does Omar Rodriguez-Lopez indulge in simple rhythms, but Flea finds a (relatively) simple path between the latinesque drums, fusion guitar and Cedric's self-testing of the peaks of his vocal range.
The song is notable for all four parts, but the bass is constantly moving, and continues as such even when Marr's part becomes more complex. The bass also provides half of the sound for the classic intro.
Where's "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac? Billie Jean by Michael Jackson? Love Buzz by Shocking Blue? Money by Pink Floyd?
