I've found "Sundroid" to be simple and useful for both sun and moon times/phase/tracking. It actually has "Golden hours," "Sunrise and Sunset," "Moonrise and moonset," Moon phase, rise and set times for the other planets, and much more in a graphic interface. You can download the free version or get the Pro version for $2.95, I think.

I would now like to introduce Bruce Byots, Vice President, Corporate and Investor Relations. Please proceed.
Bruce Byots
Good morning and thank you for joining us. On the call this morning is Dusty McCoy, Brunswick's Chairman and CEO; and Peter Hamilton, our CFO.
Before we begin with our prepared remarks, I would like to remind everyone that during this call, our comments will include certain forward-looking statements about future results. Please keep in mind that our actual results could differ materially from these expectations. For the details on the factors to consider, please refer to our recent SEC filings and today's press release. All of these documents are available on our website at brunswick.com. Also during our presentation today, we are using certain non-GAAP financial information. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are provided in this presentation as well as in the Supplemental Information Section of the consolidated financial statements of company's today's release.
I would now like to turn the call over to Dusty McCoy.
Dusty McCoy
Thanks, Bruce, good morning, everyone. I am going to start with an overview of our third quarter results. As you are aware earlier this month we announced a series of restructuring and impairment actions in our Boat segment which represented third quarter charges that we estimated to be in the range of $25 million to $32 million pretax.
As Peter will explain the amount actually booked in the quarter is approximately $28 million. Because this amount is significant, we will be describing many of our financial metrics for the quarter on an adjusted basis which excludes restructuring and impairment charges, losses on debt retirement and any special tax item.
We believe that this adjusted comparison provides the necessary important perspective on the company's operating performance, in addition to GAAP comparisons and will improve comparability versus past periods. In addition, we expect further restructuring charges related to previously announced actions in the fourth quarter this year, as well as further debt extinguishment expenses and so we will be referring to adjusted financial metrics in Q4 and for the full year as well.
Our third quarter results demonstrated continued success of our business strategy. Short-term financial performance continues to improve even as we make increased investments for long-term organic growth. Gross profit, as well as adjusted operating earnings and net earnings per diluted share, each increased by double digit percentages versus prior year.
Our Engine segment experienced strong revenue growth during the quarter, but was partially offset by lower sales in our Boat, Fitness and Bowling and Billiards segments. We experienced lower sales in Europe in all four of our segments. For the total company, excluding Sealine, revenues declined about 15% in this region. If we include 2011 Sealine sales, European sales declined 19%. Revenue generated from our U.S. and rest of world customers increased by 4%.
We continue to make excellent progress in reducing our debt balances. Debt outstanding at end of the quarter was $598 million; the lowest level since June 1997.
Sales increased by 1% in the third quarter. Sales of our ongoing European businesses declined by approximately $17 million. Additionally, revenues from the Sealine and Boat brand, which we divested in the third quarter of 2011 were approximately $5 billion in the third quarter of 2011.
I will comment in a few moments about some of the other major factors that affected our topline during the quarter. Year-to-date, our sales have decreased by 1%. Sales of our ongoing European businesses declined by about $80 million or 17% during the first nine months. Sealine sales during 2011 were approximately $37 million; U.S. and rest of world revenues increased 3% year-to-date.
Operating earnings excluding restructuring, exit and impairment charges were $66 million for the quarter, a 35% increase compared to 2011. Operating margins ex-charges, increased by 180 basis points to 7.4%. The increase in operating earnings reflect strong gross margin improvements, partially offset by increases in operating expenses.
Operating earnings excluding restructuring, exit and impairment charges were $249 million for the nine months, an increase of 9% compared to 2011. This reflects an increase in all of our operating segments. Operating margins ex-charges increased by about 80 basis points to 8.5%.
Net earnings for the quarter were $0.02 per share including $0.31 of charges for restructuring, $0.08 of losses on debt retirements and $0.02 of losses from special tax items. Excluding these items, our diluted earnings per share were $0.43 per share. This compares to net earnings of $0.05 per share in the prior year which included $0.14 of charges for restructuring, $0.13 of losses on debt retirements and a penny of losses from special tax items. Again, excluding these items, 2011 earnings per share were $0.33. In summary, our adjusted EPS increased by $0.10 or30%.

Pretty Little Liars
Diego Boneta Shooting Mean Girls 2
Diego Boneta (Alex) is making a career out of playing the boy toys to high school queen bees. He's going from the mean girls of Pretty Little Liars to — well, Mean Girls 2.
Diego is currently filming the 2011 TV movie in Atlanta. He tweets: Just finished shooting Mean Girls 2 for the day with @ettejnahgaem. Its hot & humid in Atlanta! :) It's a pleasure to be a part of such a cool production like Mean Girls 2! Its been lots of fun and each day it gets better & better!
We're not sure how we feel about a non-Tina Fey Mean Girls installment, but Diego's presence means we'll at least give it a shot.

Flash memory and the LogFS filesystem
Flash is now an everyday part of the Linux environment. The new LogFS filesystem will help you contend with the problems of flash memory.
Flash memory was once reserved for embedded applications. Over the course of the past few years, however, prices have fallen drastically for flash in the form of USB sticks, as well as the memory cards used in cameras, PDAs, cellphones, solid state drives, and MP3 players. Users increasingly need to access flash memory devices with ordinary Linux systems, and the Linux community is responding with better tools for addressing the challenges of flash.

The Best of the Worst: Family Childcare Edition (Triggers -especially pg 14 onward)
But, my mom has a few parenting fails. Trigger for sexual and physical abuse.
For most of my childhood, she worked nights and slept all day. If I was hungry, she would tell me to eat a bag of chips or some bread. The youngest I remember this happening was 5 or 6.
When I was 8, she let my grandparents watch me. Long story short, my grandfather touched me innapropriately, and I told my mom.
Turns out, she knew he was a pedophile and molested many of her friends. And she let me be alone with him because he wouldn't "mess in his own nest."
Anyway, there was another babysitter, I think I was 9ish, and she would bring her boyfriend over. They would wrestle me, give me wedgies that made my ass bleed, and would tickle me until I peed. I remember putting on multiple pairs of underwear so that I could slip out of that current wedgie and run away to my bedroom. My mom thought they were just playing, and I was being a drama queen. But for some reason, they didn't watch me again.
A little while after that, she married stepdad #5. He would use a switch on me and one time I couldn't walk. The way my mom recalls the story is that he threatened me, and I ran out of the room. I remember not feeling my legs and CRAWLING from the room as he switched my back more. My sister didn't have it much easier, and she had to have been 3 or 4. He would grab her by her hair or hold her up by her arms and switch her repeatedly, and leave her outside crying. Then he would switch me for not trying to stop him. He also molested me, but I didn't even tell my mom about that because she probably wouldn't give a crap because it was ten-ish years ago...
Anyway, she also left me with a woman she met online. She and her husband would make me sleep in their bed with them, even though they had bunk beds in another room. I don't remember why, but one night the woman asked me who I wanted to sleep next to, and I said the husband. He confronted me, asking why I told his wife I wanted to sleep with him. I was young, and didn't realize that sleeping with someone could also refer to sex. It was so awkward, having to explain that I wanted to sleep NEXT TO him, rather than his wife. Ugh.
They would also make me take baths in front of them and they would wash my hair for me. >_<
Yeah, my mom is on low contact, and will never be left alone or in charge of my DD. And most of these memories, she swears up and down that I'm just a drama queen or I was being too sensitive.
^^ Sorry PP, but LOW contact?? You still talk to that monster?! She knowingly let you be abused! What do you have to gain from continuing such a relationship?? (probably a topic for a different thread so as not to hijack, but seriously... CO the bitch!!)
Little Bug on 9/24/2012
6lbs, 4oz. 18.5 inches long
We made it 26 months of breastfeeding!
This thread is why my son is over two years old and I still won't hire a babysitter for a date night out. You just can't trust people.
Anyone who is considering letting family watch their LO, and has any inkling of a doubt about it, should read this entire thread.
Our Little Space Cadet 2010. MC 5/2015. Caught a rainbow! Space cadet #2 born 3/7/16.
Cripes, let me think of some funny crazy-grandma stories to lighten the mood.
Wow, Ohiime-sama , your story just about had me reduced to tears in my office. Please cut off all contact with the Egg Donor you refer to as "mom". No good mother would EVER do you to, or allow anyone to do to you, what you went through. Please tell me you are in counseling.
You are only venting if you do nothing to solve the problem. -dkjay279
My husband says we will have a date when LO can talk...but we want another kid...so never? He works at aprison and the shit he has read and the guys he has met in there have scared him shitless that NO ONE is a safe person and some of them seem "normal" on the surface.
I've never posted for advice, just read and learned, but my MIL's treatment of her own kids has ensured that she has only met LO twice just by being at a large family event. no direct contact.
My SIL once came home and her toddler dropped off of a bookshelf into her arms when she walked in the door . MIL was sleeping on the couch instead of watching her.
I've mentioned that to a few people when I was trying ot defend my "MIL will not be around my future DF clone-babies" stance and they all said there was nothing wrong with napping while babysitting, especially if you live with the kids you're watching.
Really? How about inviting someone over and getting drunk while babysitting? Apparently she can do whatever she wants in her own home.
I need more female friends. The guys just aren't seeing it.
I have Asperger's syndrome so PLEASE let me know if I misunderstand or say something that seems off. It'll really help me IRL.

Remain vigilant and protect what matters by owning this dependable surveillance solution ideal for your home or business. The MPX1612 contains our exclusive 16-channel DV700 HD DVR. It also comes with with twelve weatherproof 1080p night vision security cameras. Space for four additional security cameras is there for when your monitoring needs evolve.
1080P DVR can support up to 16 cameras
12 HD 1080p security cameras
Maximum night vision
Maximum capacity 1 x 4TB hard drive
Video footage in 1080p quality leaves nothing to question. It can be the difference in identifying faces or license plate numbers. Video recorded at 30 frames-per-second (in 720p mode) ensures smooth on-screen movement, so you don't miss a single moment. Receive extensive video coverage from each of the LBV2711B HD security cameras thanks to their wide 75° angle lenses.
RG59 siamese BNC cabling provides video and power transmission, making for an easy and clutter-free connection between security camera, power and DVR. The range of analog HD security cameras like the LBV2711B can be extended up to 800 feet away from the DVR. This makes them an ideal solution for monitoring large properties (see documentation for complete details). The 16-channel DVR is also backwards-compatible, which means older compatible BNC cameras can still be used to expand your security coverage without purchasing additional cameras.
The FLIR Cloud™ app makes your MPX1612 security system accessible from your mobile device or personal computer. See what your cameras see no matter where you are in the world. With iOS®, Android™ and PC options your security system will always be at your fingertips. Customizable features such as push notifications and instant email alerts for motion-triggered events will always keep you up-to-date on what is occurring around your property.
Lorex security cameras will never leave you in the dark with superior night vision technology. Cutting edge infrared (IR) LEDs deliver outstanding night vision, allowing you see in the dark up to 150ft / 46m in ambient lighting (and up to 100ft / 31m in total darkness). The LBV2711B HD security cameras also feature SmartIR technology that helps with close up recognition of objects in the dark. ClearNight imaging delivers superior low light operation (and recording efficiency).
Residential and business friendly compact design allows you to place the LBV2711B security cameras where you need them most - indoors and outdoors. Rated IP66, they can persevere through the most unforgiving climates - they will even continue to operate in extreme temperatures as low as -22°F (-30°C). Lightweight (yet durable) polycarbonate housing makes these HD security cameras a reliable choice for year-round security monitoring that never stops working.
The 3TB security certified hard drive in the MPX168's DVR is engineered precisely for security monitoring. It can be in constant operation and can continue recording even while you review footage. Adjust your DVR to record at a lower resolution or program scheduled recording times to increase storage space. The motion-triggered recording option can also save storage space by only starting to record when movement is detected.

Initially, my new system worked flawlessly. Setup was simple too. Unfortunately, the DVR failed within a few months. I was able to get a warranty replacement after spending a lot of time on hold waiting for a person to provide me an RMA. Soon after the replacement DVR was installed, it too failed, worse than the first one. I have tried to use the online ticket system to get this repaired too but it doesn't work. So, I continue to wait and wait and wait on hold for someone to handle my calls. My buying experience with Lorex is a snap. After that Tech support and Customer Service is lame.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any difficulty or inconvenience you have experienced. If you require further assistance, please call us at 1-888-425-6739 or reply to our email.

Excellent Video Quality
Location: Mesa, AZ
Took longer than expected for shipping. Was told it had to do with holiday orders. When the box arrived, it only had ten cameras and not twelve. Had to call and request the other two. The rep said it was in the same box which it was not. Set up the system just fine. Image quality is good not super. The DVR is louder than my previous unit but bearable. Two cameras have fuzzy horizontal lines but only noticeable at night. Hopefully the camera isn't defective? Overall a great system.

The fan on the unit is extremely loud. We read the reviews and many people said they were loud and it is actually true.

This is the second Lorex system I bought. I was replacing a older system. This was much easier to install and remote viewing with the Flir Cloud was so much easier then the last system.
I would highly recommend this system.

The MPX1610W system I purchased was shipped very quickly and arrived in perfect condition...I installed the DVR and 2 cameras the first day and had no problems getting the system up-and-running...I routed a network cable to it the next day and got the FLIR Cloud working on two mobile devices very easily...I plan to add the other cameras one by one as my free time allows...overall the quality of the system seems to be very good and the camera images are very clear day and night...I have not had much time to "play" with the recording options and other features...will comment back when I do...

We bought this system to replace an old Lorex unit. Installation was easy and the cameras are okay. Lorex provided us with DDNS link that does not work at all.
Location: Tenn
My third Lorex system and by far the best. HD makes a significant difference on viewing. Flair setup is easy with the QBR scan bar. The only thing to watch is the wire to the camera is much shorter than other models I've had. Shipping was fast for me so different than other comments I saw. Highly recommend for the money.

We bought the 1080p HD 12 camera system at Costco and we are pleased so far. The cables were not long enough for a couple of the cameras but they make longer so no big deal. The only thing that I am having trouble with is remote viewing. I have a Windows Phone (by choice) and there is no app from FLIR for it. They only make apps for Android and iPhone. I have set up the DDNS system but I cannot remote view it yet. I have followed all instructions and nothing. Tech support is ok at best (via e-mail), so I guess I will call them later and see if someone can help me. I will say that the cameras have performed flawlessly and are crystal clear.

I have to say that I am not very impressed with LOREX at this point. I ordered my system 9/21 and it was suppose to be delivered 9/29. I call them today and I am told it was back ordered and I will not receive the system until 10/5 or 10/6. They have my email address, why not send me an email with this information. I asked the representative if it was back ordered when I made the purchase 9/21. His response was no. My question is simple, how can it be back ordered now. Not a happy customer. Searching the web now for an alternative just to be safe.
Thank you for your feedback. Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

I bought this system from Costco to replace my old 16ch PC DVR, I highly recommend this bundle.
Location: Indiana
I would like to place my system in my closet and run an HDMI to my tv in the bedroom. Will the remote for this DVR go through walls or can I program it into my Logitech remote. I am going to give this four stars based on what I have read thus far.
Location: New Jersey
I can't write nothing about the system yet since I'm yet to get it past processing after placing my order. Contacting customer service department and speaking to someone who is not from the U.S. is a disaster. I could tell that technical support is totally different and very responsive. Hopefully I can get someone who know's what they are doing in their end and push it past processing otherwise canceling order for this unit I read good reviews about.
We apologize for the delay in shipping your order. We are happy you have now received it. Should you ever have any questions or concerns, please contact our customer service department at 1-888-425-6739 and they will be happy to assist.

This is my third Lorex system and so far it's the best by far. The Cloud network was extremely easy to set up (much easier than port forwarding). The image quality is very good however all that resolution does slow the network down. It's a good tradeoff though! I have multiple retail locations and my other store was professionally set up. This system was 1/2 the cost and so far performs much better.
Location: Saint Louis
I purchased this system for my home. I was very surprised at how clear the resolution was on the hd cameras. The resolution is comparable to an ip camera. The ability to set up the remote viewing on my Android phone was a piece of cake. The night viewing is very clear even in the pitch dark. The only con is the DVR is a little loud from the fan noise. I only gave this DVR 4 stars because of the fan noise. The noise is the equivalent of a computer tower fan.

Great product for the $,DVR runs hot and makes a lot of noise but most do,Clear video and great night vision,Shipment was missing a few things but Lorex quickly sent missing idem's

I got this one to replace my aging lorex analog dvr. This is a very nice dvr for the price. My BNC Cables stayed in my walls and all I had to do is replace the Cameras and plug it in. I had a little issue connecting remotely but I was glad to hear a solid english speaking tech support folks. The Tech support is by far much improved now that Flir owns lorex..Unfortunetly after 4 days my Dvr crapped out so they are sending me a new one. I'll update my review once I get the replacement finished. The video quality is awesome and it shoots in true 720p. This is a very nice system for 1k.
Location: Encino, CA
I bought the Lorex 720p, 12 camera unit at Costco. I had this unit installed a week ago and my wife and I can't believe the clear images on our monitor (I dedicated an unused computer monitor to the system). At night, the IR shows all that I need to see. In fact, I'm soon going to add two more cameras.
I especially like the sequential and the motion only features of the DVR. I hope that the 2TB drive will hold the information for a long time using this setting.
This is my first time using a security system and I had many questions about the unit and its operation. The support staff at Lorex was outstanding and VERY patient. I've already recommended this system to friends.

I bought the 12 camera system on (mod LHD182C6, order #L338846) 3/26/2015 and, finally, connected the 12th camera on 4/30/2015. All of my outdoor cameras are mounted 16 feet above ground level and underneath the roof overhang. This location keeps them out of the rain and reduces the possibility of tampering. Every single thing worked perfectly, right out of the box. The software is simple and intuitive to operate and I had no difficulty with downloading/installing the latest version on line. I am 72 years old and I am still learning to use all of the features of the software but, so far, it has been absolutly great. I like being able to look in at my home from a remoted location with my I-pad.

I bought this system from Costco to replace a 3 year old 600tvl Lorex system. The cameras are much better and the DVR offers a larger number of features not available on the older system. The security is greatly improved and multiple accounts with assignable access are now available.
But we didn't get there without a certain amount of pain. While both system use the BNC caBLE. The new cameras are not nearly as sturdy as the older cameras and their leads are only 1 foot long versus 3 feet. So you have to readjust your wiring to connect them in the eaves instead of in the attic. The mounting base is smaller so only one screw hole is reusable.
By the time I got the Lorex DDNS connection set up (No luck with the FLIR Cloud) four of the video ports had failed. Rebooting and cycling camera power had no affect. An email to tech support resulted in a "Sorry about that, Call us, Ticket closed". Expecting the worse, I called Tech Support, but after only a few minutes, Sarah answered the call, she was very knowledgeable, professional and courteous, She worked me through the troubleshooting until it was determined I needed to do a "factory reset". It was a nuisance to reset everything, but he system has been working fine for the last three days. We'll see how low it lasts, but the old system worked well for three and half yeares

This system is pretty slick, well designed and easy to use with practice and using the manual.
The connection between the wire and the connector piece is fragile if the wire must be fished through walls.
The marketing materials should include more information in the photos to illustrate what the cameras will see. This would help with planning camera locations. Perhaps a few graphics that show the viewing angles would be beneficial.

Purchased this system about a month ago. Got it installed and up and running. Set up was a breeze. For the price the quality is good once you get in there and tweek the camera settings to get picture quality. The DVR is a bit noisy, not sure if it's the fan or the hard drive making the noise. All in all good system. Definitely better price than purchasing a 1080p digital system. I wish the camera housings were steel instead of plastic, may not stand up to the Texas heat and sun. I do like the fact that you can remove the cameras from the mounting base and thread them into any 1/2" NPT fitting, making for a variety of mounting optoins. I mounted the cameras to water tight boxes and made all the connections inside that box so if cameras do fail I won't have to fish wire out of the eve's to get to the connection.

I purchased the 12 camera LHD182C6 to replace an old system from another manufacturer. I liked that this system had 720P video over analog lines - which is what I had already run for my old system (making the new Lorex system nearly plug and play). Quality and resolution is great. The DVR software is a huge improvement over my old system, allowing me to record continuously, but also be able to search for motion. The DVR cooling fan is a bit noisy, so best to place it somewhere where it doesn't annoy. The camera housings and mounts are slightly lower quality than expected (white plastic), so we will see if they can hold up to the sun/weather. I wish the mounts had ball sockets for adjustments, but I guess once they are adjusted it is no big deal. I setup remote viewing the "old fashioned way" rather than using the QR barcode (set a static IP/reserve the IP on the router, port forward 80 and 35000 to said IP, and used the FLIR app on my android), and it works great. Note that only Lorex cameras work with this DVR (yes, I tried). Overall this seems to be a great system for the price.

I haven't had a chance to install system because of a remodel but, I've been a customer for a couple of years and am happy to continue using lorex products. I bought this new system about 2 months ago and played around with it a couple of days ago. To set up all you need to do is Port forward the required ports on you're router and follow the quick start manual. I was remotely viewing the system within 10 minutes of playing with it.
Thank you Lorex!

Ordered Product on Black Friday direct from Lorex and saved myself some money. The system is easy to install. The hardest thing for me, was where to install the recorder. You want to find a centralized location to make it easy for the 60' cables to reach. Other than that the HD cameras and the recorder are great, and the peace of mind is invaluable. I highly recommend this bundle.
Location: New Jersey
The 720p cameras and 2TB DVR works great. I connected the DVR to my 1080p HDTV and the clarity in both the day and night vision views were fantastic. I received several different box shipments and did all of the installation. The instruction and manuals are great but you need some skills in wiring maybe not for a novice. I installed my wiring in the walls and ceilings. I would recommend this system as being affordable with great features and capabilities.

Very pleased with the system, it is nice to check your home when you are on vacation or at anytime!!! Highly recommend the 1080p HD cameras, I wouldn't go any less. The cameras are easy to mount and adjust.

I had an older surveillance system at my house and I wanted to upgrade to HD. As the house was already wired with Siamese cable, the HD-SDI system was a very cost effective way to upgrade to HD, no need for any new cables. Switching out the cameras and the DVR was very easy. Once I turned the system on, I had it up and running on my phone and ipad in less than 3 minutes with the Stratus feature, which I was familiar with and had used in the past. The camera quality when viewing on an HD monitor is excellent, much better than even the 960H unit I had previously. The ability to zoom in is great and provided very good image quality. Also, the HD-SDI cameras have a better field of view, giving more coverage, but you don't lose anything as the zoom allows close up of anything on the screen. As expected due to bandwidth, the quality on the phone and ipad is just OK. You definitely do not have the same clarity as on the monitor, but that is to be expected. Bottom line, I would highly recommend buying the HD system as it is significantly better image quality than other systems. If you already have the Siamese cables run, buy this. For a new install, I would go with the POE system as Cat 5 cables are an easier and cleaner install. Both systems will give the same quality image, and are well worth the slightly higher price than the non HD systems.

Could any users give some more info regarding how long the 2T of memory lasts before it is written over at highest resolution? Does the system allow some cameras to be action activated and some others to record at full 1080 res?
I'll rate this as five stars if it is at least a month of recordings.
Location: Arlington, TX
I got this system over a month ago. Test it and it works great. Live views are truly 1080p unlike the Swann system I bought. It's able to records, playback whenever needed. Most importantly, I can remote in to view about my house from anywhere.
Location: PA
Received the cameras/DVR -- everything was packaged perfectly and in total working order. It is important to really follow all directions, but it was cumbersome to have to read the instructions on-line versus a paper manual. It was fairly easy to set up. It does have a GREAT picture quality and the night vision is really good as well. Glad we went with the 1080P on this one. Cable length was long enough as well. Overall, very happy with the product so far and am glad we purchased a Lorex w/6 cameras.

This is my first camera security system, I purchased it in July of 2013, after carefully studying the manual I easily installed it and had it up and running without requiring assistance from tech support, except to use the iPhone app. Tech support was very helpful, there was hardly any wait to talk to someone and the system has run flawlessly for seven months now. Both the laptop control panel and iphone app have worked as hoped as well. I could not be happier with the system, its ease of set-up or the quality of the picture I get through the cameras.

I purchased this system on behalf of our Mobile Home Park. We have an exit gate and are concerned that at times someone is forcing it open. This camera system seemed like a great solution. While we haven't installed it yet, we have tested it and are very happy with the results. However the start up procedure could be better explained. For example nothing is mentioned about using the mouse. When we entered the user name and tried to go to password we couldn't figure out what to do. We had to phone Tech. Support. A simple mention of using the mouse would have saved a lot of time and frustration. We were following directions. What is delaying our installation right now relates to what distance we can go. We would like to set up the DVR in our office. The distance is about 500 feet. We are looking into this. One thing that would have been nice is a zoom lens on the cameras. In fact while the picture is beautiful, it would have been nice to focus in more on a narrower view. At this time I would give it a rating of 4. Hopefully Tech. support can answer phones more quickly. I am paying by the minute on my Cell.

PRO: This is the third Lorex system I have purchased, one for my self with four HD cameras, one wireless one with two SD cameras for a customer, then one more for my self with six HD cameras, but that can handle eight. I needed more cameras, and the four ones I have will work with this system. I am very impress with the over all system. CON: Setting the zones is a great idea, so I can detect when a car pulls into my driveway, and have it send me an email with a picture. BUT it is too sensitive, even leaves blowing across my driveway will trigger it, and a squirrel. They need to provide an update to the firmware that would allow an entire block to be full (Due to a car, truck, etc) before triggering.

Great system, originally purchased an analog system(from a different mfr.)and could not make out any detail. We decided to give this system a chance with HD. So far so good with great clarity. The only drawback is the dvr cooling fan is loud, as long as it's not installed in your bedroom, this is a great system.

I've been using Lorex security systems now for 3 years. One of my night vision cameras in my first purchase started to fail - in that it stayed in night vision mode consistently. A quick call to Lorex, and a replacement was shipped. Their customer service is great! Keep up the good work.

I bought this system to watch the house while away and deter vandals in the neighborhood. Installation was pretty easy for the most part. I have still not figured out how to hook up the DDNS server so I can access from work. The software is a little cumbersome since you have to use a mouse to type on a virtual keyboard. I have the LHD200 series DVR which is the newer system. I am still plying with camera views and settings. Thought I had a broken channel until I realized I had set a "Covert" setting that blacks out the live view. Overall I am happy with the system so far for the price I paid and the quality of the cameras. Customer Service is a little slow but they do make contact and help when I have reached out to them. I would recommend this to anyone interested in a good system that is relatively easy to set up.

I origanaly gave this product a 5 star rating, but that was when it was new and I was promissed an additional 1 year warrenty for writing it. After having this unit for one year, I have had to replace every camera at some time and still was shipped 2 bad cameras. Even though I had it for 1 year, Costco took it back and gave me a full refund. Costco must know something about Lorex.

I have purchased a few other systems without much success due to quality of picture. This system was very easy to install and has a great picture when using a hdmi cable directly connected to the dvr. The Android app is a piece of garbage. it crashes all the time, and is really useless. The web interface from a computer degrades the picture quality so much that it can't be the primary interface. But the rest of the system I thought was going to be a lot better and I would have given it 5 stars, but 3 cameras have died in less then a month due to weather. The cameras are protected by a roof line and have no wires exposed, but for some reason they have stopped working. I Really wish I went with a different product. Complete waste of a lot of money. As for customer support. They were nice, but they told me I had to send in an email. They wouldn't handle my warranty issue over the phone.

The Lorex wireless caemra system is limited in it's ability to give sharp video images day or night (you cannot read a car's license plate). The most disappointing of the features is the very limited distance range that the caemras are able to connect to the DVR. At best, I was only able to be about 40 feet apart. I had to have the inside antennas on a windowsill in line of sight of the caemras. My home is a wood frame structure. The software is somewhat cumbersome in that when you access the List of videoed events, you cannot erase the entire previous day of numerous tapings. You have to constantly use a toolbar at the bottom of the screen. You select the event you want to view from the List then move the cursor to the tool bar to watch the event or erase the event. Then you have to go back to the List to select another event. I may have 400 plus events a night to review. If you want a wireless video security caemra system that is easy to install in a very small area, this product may work for you.

After a little delay on the delivery process, the system arrived well packaged and installation guides were easy to follow. Images from the HD-SDI cameras were excellent along with a good FPS. Backing up and capturing was good. Only thing I wished on the backup directly from the DVR if you could switch the format from .rms to .avi or other formats instead of using the network interface to do the same. The cooling fan was a little loud but most DVR systems I have dealt with were around the same db. Other nice feature was the ability to add additional storage if you need it. All in all, I thought this is a good system and would recommend it to anyone setting up in a home environment to small business.

I am very pleased with my Lorex 6 camera security system. The unit was very easy to install. The manual was well layed out and provided all the necessary information.

Pros: These cameras have an excellent daytime picture and good nightime picture with good range in infrared coverage. They are easy to connect and the DVR software is well evolved and feature rich for easy review of recorded events.Computer and smartphone access is also respectable and shows very nice video. The ability to filter certain portions of the screen from motion detection is very nice. Cons: The DVR hard drive is a bit noisy making a continuous whirring sound. The smartphone app could use some additional features such as Smart Search and frame capture and email.

This product has been a pain in the a$$ for me .... I ordered the product and paid for it waited to receive my cameras... Anxiously waiting I schedule an appointment with my local installer to have system installed three days from tracking delivery date. Package arrived as scheduled only to find DVR was not in. I promptly contacted lorex and they said it was back ordered for another month. I had my cameras sitting there for another month until I got the DVR. Finally when the DVR reached my home I installed system to find that the system looked good. Two weeks after professional installation. Waited a four days and never got a call back. I called back waited another hour and a half to be told that cameras were bad. Overall I think he video quality is almost great , the equipment made in Korea . I'm hoping that they last but doubt the equipment will that's mainly the reason I'm writing this review because you get an additional year of warranty not to b!tch

Cameras work very well, but I have had nothing but problems. I have had 3 months. 1) One of my initial cameras was defective. 2) Technical support was not knowledgeable about the product. It took multiple attempts to get remote setup. 3) The hard drive failed

I am very pleased with the clarity of the picture, both live and recorded. The night vision is impressive and provides a very clear picture in low light and complete darkness. My only complaint is that Lorex tech support has limited hours and is not available on weekends.

Very nice set with excellent quality recording. The video is crystal clear. Nice digital zoom feature. It has a wide viewing angle so you can see a large area in one camera. everything is easy to use. thought this system had the cameras with dual BNC outputs, guess not. Remote viewing took a while to figure out but i eventually figured it out. The cameras are fairly large but the build quality makes up for it. The iphone/ipad app is not so great. Very poor UI, slow and buggy. Crashes a lot. The playback feature is not even usable. I would like to see a better app. I might save the other two channels open, incase they come out with an HD PTZ camera. This i probably the best system you can buy along with their HD IP camera set.

This review has nothing to do with the product, simply because I have not received it. I ordered the 6 camera HD LHD182C6 on April 21, 2013. It seemed to be a good deal and the Lorex website promised "fast shipping." Nothing on the website indicated a delay in shipping. On May 22, 2013, I received an automated response advising my order had shipped, "standard shipping." So I called Lorex who told me that the automated response was wrong. My order was shipped expedited and then he offered to check the tracking number. "Your order will arrive on May 29, 2013." Huh! So much for expediting. We'll see if it arrives. So far I am not impressed with Lorex customer service. Perhaps it would be less of a sting if they had charged my credit card at time of shipping or maybe sent me an e-mail notifying me of the back order.

DVR showed up with bad hard drive. Shipped back DVR to Lorex they sent a new one immediately. I paid return postage but did not get reimbursed. A little disappointed. However image quality is very good and images on iphone and ipad are good. Easy to set up.

Very clear surveillance recording and excellent at night time mode too. I like the fact that you are able to check up on your property anywhere in the world with the lorex app that works with this system. easy set up with good technical assistance to set up ddns address. however i don't like the fact that the lorex assistance is not 24hrs for technical support only monday to friday, and have to wait long periods of time to get assistance for technical support i was waiting 30-40 mins for support and the app doesnt allow you to check recordings or zoom in as you would like as its slow and crashes, but on a pc it works seemlessly. one major drawback is the dvr's fan is very noisy and is annoying so beware of the hd dvrs noise

Electrical Questions? Ask an Electrician Online.
Welcome. I would be glad to assist.Below is a diagram of an overhead service complete to the panel inside.The neutral is connected to the meter can, there is a bar specifically for them.I have never heard of an electric company having the authority not to allow theconductors within a premade service cable.I suggest you contact the local permitting inspections department , they have the local authority.The utility company is most likely speaking of the main grounding conductor to your needed ground rods perhaps.That is required to be copper.Just reply if more info is needed.
Service Company says that the Nuetral must pass solidly through the meter socket. I must install a disconnect below the meter socket, since I have moved the service. Since this is residential, do I have to use a ground rod outside, or can I simply tie the ground cable to the water pipes? I have installed a ground rod, but the ground conductor that came with the cable is aluminum and I must replace it...Gary
Thanks.The information I have posted is per the National Electric Code 2011, which is the latest code cycle.If you are going to pass the neutral straight through the meter socket, you will have to pipe the overhead in conduit, the cable cannot be used with a separate neutral wire per code.My diagram shows a meter/disconnect combination which is th emost commonly used item today.Most installations do not have a meter and disconnect anymore.If you wish to do so, you will have to pipe from the meter base to the disconnect as well.Then pass the neutral through the meter base from the weatherhead to the disconnect.You will have the single conductors in the pipe 4/0 for hots, 4/0 for neutral.There is no ground in the overhead portion, it is picked up at the main disconnect outside.Yes, you can run the ground to the cold water piping if it is definitely steel/copper pipe and extends outdoors in the ground.I believe you will find locally though, that the ground rod is also required in addition to the cold water piping.Your local authority has the say on that part and it is up to them for inspection purposes.
For clarification:
The bare wire in the cable to the overhead section is the neutral wire.
You have 3 conductors from the meter to the overhead connection.
You install 4 wires from the main outside to the panel inside as per the diagram.

From the July 15 Hannity & Colmes program:
HANNITY: They found three massive underground tanks, each 60 feet long, 10 feet high, each with about 100 marijuana plants growing inside. The university's plumbing and electric lines had been tapped into the water to heat the plants, and the tanks were accessible by a homemade hatch door and a ladder that the culprits used to climb down into their secret liberal lab.
COLMES: Liberal?
Media Matters for America: Hannity called marijuana lab "liberal"
Har-har-har! Good one, Sean! It's a joke, right? Heheh.

The Anglican's Angle
Murchison, William, The Human Life Review
Why this from a member of a culture and faith that once was readier to view the "pope of Rome" as dastardly usurper than as hero of the common faith? What's the nature of present Anglican fascination-and more than fascination-concerning the late John Paul II?
A first-order consideration is that this particular "pope of Rome" was not just any pope, sitting (as a certain kind of fossilized Protestant would once have gibed) beneath his canopy waiting with ring extended for kissing. Here instead was a pope whom, on his death, the archbishop of Canterbury would praise as "a leader of manifest holiness and a faithful and prayerful friend of the Anglican Church."
"Friend"! How would those oldtime Protestant scorners have liked them apples? Not much, it strikes me. For that matter, starchier Roman pontiffs-Leo XIII, who declared Anglican orders invalid, comes to mind-might not have relished the insinuation of likeness between such unlike Christian camps. Yet just a few days later here came the archbishop himself-Dr. Rowan Williams-as the first of his line, while still in office, to attend a papal funeral; to sit among the scarlet magnificence of the mourners and affirm the essential connectedness of Christians everywhere.
Karol Wojtyla's gift of ecclesiastical hospitality was certainly extraordinary: more so, perhaps, with regard to Anglicanism than to most other Christian communions and fellowships.
There is after all, when you scratch below the surface, less that divides Anglicans from Romans than Romans from many other Christian bodies, including the Eastern Orthodox. Anglican priests wear the Rome collar, generally prefer being called "Father," observe many of the same liturgical feasts and uses as Romans, even employ the same lectionary at Mass (as more catholic Anglicans call the eucharist). Many Anglicans yearn audibly for reunion with Rome, ruing the political circumstances and human follies that let Henry VIII consummate his theft of church headship and property in the 16th century.
What keeps apart the two flocks? Oh, a few long-familiar items: papal primacy; some of the Marian doctrines; old habits and cultural distinctions of one kind and another.
And conflicts over gay rights; conflicts over women priests; the afflictions of a world uncertain as to the proper locus of authority. The older quarrels have lost some of their purchase on modern minds; the newer ones have atomic capability. They could blow apart Christianity as presently organized.
That John Paul trod so deftly, and to so much applause, along the border between the two rival camps attests to something more than mere personality and charm; something more like-we could start with "integrity" and see where that takes us.
The late pope cared for, among much else, the integrity of the Christian commitment to fellow Christians. He desired unity insofar as unity could be obtained. There was another side to the matter, all the same. Unity at the cost of Christian truth was unity without-that word again, integrity. The pope would have none of that. His refusal to have any of it made him look, to many Anglicans, like a back number. A word about these folk.
Since World War II, Anglicanism has fallen into theological disrepair. Starting in the 1960s, Anglicans in the various Western churches that make up the communion (England, Canada, the United States, etc.) revised their prayer books, placing greater emphasis on joy than on sin and remorse. Joy gets the appetites working and the juices flowing. More! More!
Soon, joyful American Episcopalians decided to start ordaining women as priests, contrary to ancient and biblical understandings of priesthood. Other Anglican chapters quickly followed suit. Women priests-a few generally orthodox, the greater number quite "progressive" in politics and theology-have become as ordinary in Anglican churches as velvet-covered kneelers.

Eat Less, Get Hungry
Telling an obese person simply to eat less rarely succeeds. Is it because they are weak-willed individuals or is there something more complex going on?

Bellevue-based aerospace supplier Esterline has agreed to a $20 million civil penalty after a federal investigation found its lax controls led to unauthorized exports of "defense articles and technical information."
Investigations by several agencies found that Esterline "demonstrated inadequate corporate oversight and failed to establish an adequate arms export control compliance program," the State Department said in a statement Friday.
The document outlining proposed charges against Esterline says "many of the violating transactions likely would have been approved" by export regulators had Esterline properly submitted licensing requests. It also notes "the absence of disclosure of sensitive technologies … or harm to national security."
It also says two criminal investigations involving some of the transactions, including some at Korry Electronics in Everett, were referred to the U.S. Attorney's Office but did not result in prosecutions.

The Homeland Security Department's investigations unit, which participated in the inquiry, said one of the violations at Korry involved transferring to a contractor in Lichtenstein sensitive technical data relating to manufacturing night-vision components used by the U.S. military.
The statement of proposed charges by the State Department's Office of Defense Trade Controls Compliance cited Esterline's rapid acquisition of numerous defense contractors as a factor contributing to its lack of adequate oversight.
The consent decree says Esterline will pay a $10 million penalty over several years, and the other $10 million will be suspended as long as the company applies that money toward improving its monitoring and compliance with arms-export controls.
Esterline President and CEO Curtis Reusser said in a statement that the company accepts responsibility for the actions leading to the penalties, and it has already spent more than $5 million to improve its procedures.
"We do not expect any disruption to our operations as a result of this agreement," Reusser said.

I just watched Princess Mononoke for the first time tonight. It was really beautiful and a joy to watch.
It reminds me I need to try and watch more Studio Ghibli films. The film that introduced me to Studio Ghibli was Spirited Away. (Then after that I watched Kiki's Delivery Service and The Cat Returns....so Princess Mononoke is my fourth studio ghibli film)
I think I'll check out My Neighbour Totoro next.

"Amsterdam, The Netherlands" Amsterdam by leafmcgowan
Amsterdam Travel Guide: 10,684 reviews and 22,666 photos
The largest city in Holland (The Netherlands) and its capital, is world-famous "Amsterdam". It is the financial and cultural capital of the Netherlands. It is also the headquarters for most Dutch institutions and 7 of the world's top 500 countries including Philips and ING. Amsterdam is located in North Holland in the western portion of the country. Amsterdam boasts over a million people (2008) and merged with the northern part of the Randstad, is the 6th largest metropolitan area of Europe at over 6.7 million in population. Amsterdam is most popular for its historic canals, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank House, its red light district, and its many cannabis coffee shops all of which draw over 4.2 million visitors a year. Amsterdam is named after a dam in the river "Amstel" where the Dam Square resides today. It started as a small fishing village in the late 12th century later becoming one of the most important port cities in the world during the Dutch Golden Age due to its innovative developments in trade. At this time it became a leading center for finance and diamonds. It was named as such when the inhabitants of the area built a bridge with a dam across the Amstel had been exempted from paying a bridge toll by Count Floris and had to bound together as a city. By 1327 it was well known as "Amsterdam". Amsterdam was granted city rights by 1306.
From the 14th century onwards it flourished due to trade with the Hanseatic League. By 1345 an alleged Eucharistic miracle in the Kalverstraat rendered the city an important place of pilgrimage until altered by the Protestant faith. In the 16th century the Dutch rebelled against Philip II of Spain and his successors to fight the new taxes, the tenth penny, and the religious persecution of Protestantism by the Spanish Inquisition. The revolt turned into the 80 Year's war which led to Dutch Independence. Strongly pushed by the Dutch Revolt leader William the Silent, the Dutch Republic became known for its relative religious tolerance. Jews, Huguenots, prosperous merchants, printers, economic and religious refugees flocked to the area. Because of all the Flemish printers and the city's intellectual tolerance, Amsterdam became a center for the European free press. By the 17th century, Amsterdam reached its Golden Age and became the wealthiest city in the world. Ships sailed from Amsterdam to the Baltic Sea, North American, Africa, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, and Brazil forming the basis of a worldwide trading network. Amsterdam's merchants had the largest share in both the VOC (Dutch East India Company) and the WIC (Dutch West India Company). Amsterdam became Europe's most important port for the shipment of goods and leading financial center. By 1602 the world's first stock exchange was established here by trading its own shares. From 1623-1625 Amsterdam lost 10% of its population to the plague and again in 1635-1636 as well as 1655 and 1664. Regardless its population rose in the 17th century from 50,000 to over 200,000. The city's prosperity declined during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wars of the Dutch Republic with England and France. During the Napoleonic Wars, Amsterdam's significance reached its lowest point when Holland was absorbed into the French Empire. With the establishment of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands in 1815 Amsterdam was back to a rise in popularity. It expanded the greatest during the 19th and 20th centuries. Amsterdam hit its 2nd Golden Age at the end of the 19th century with the construction of new museums, a train station, and the Industrial Revolution. The Amsterdam-Rhine Canal was dug to give a direct connection to the Rhine and the North Sea Canal dug for a shorter connection to the North Sea. Both projects dramatically improved commerce with the rest of Europe and the world. By 1906 Joseph Conrad was describing Amsterdam as being seen from the seaside in the Mirror of the Sea. With World War I, the city expanded and new suburbs built followed by a food and fuel shortage sparking riots called the Aardappeloproer (Potato Rebellion) killing several people, causing looting for food.
By 1940 Germany invaded the Netherlands and took control of the country, installing their Nazi civilian government in Amsterdam leading to prosecution of the Jews. While many citizens sheltered the Jews - more than 100,000 Dutch Jews were deported to concentration camps with only 5,000 surviving the war. By the End of WWII, communication broke down and food/fuel became scarce again causing rioting, looting, and foraging where citizens ate dogs, cats, raw sugar beets, and cooked tulip bulbs to survive. Most of the trees in the area were demolished for fuel as well as the wood in the Jewish quarter. After the war, over 120,000 Dutch were prosecuted for their collaboration with the Nazis. New suburbs were developed such as Osdorp, Slotervaart, Slotermeer, and Geuzenveld that contained many public parks, open spaces, and new buildings to improve the city. After the war and the tragedies that befell Amsterdam in the 20th century, the entire city center fell into disrepair and had to be redesigned. With a new necessity of office buildings, roads, and businesses - the metro started in 1977 from Bijlmer to Amsterdam, a new highway was designed to sit above to metro was designed to connect the central station and city center with other parts of the city. Large scale demolitions began in the Jewish Neighbourhoods with smaller streets like the Jodenbreestraat being widened. During the reconstructions and demolitions, the Nieuwmarktrellen (Nieuwmarkt riots) broke out with citizens angry about what was taking place, putting the demolitions to a standstill and the highway was never built, only seeing completion to the metro thereby only widening a few streets. The buildings that were destroyed, were replaced by controversial modern designs that Amsterdam citizens love and hate. Today the primary form of transportation and getting around (just as it is in most of Holland) by bicycle.

Meridian, Miss After a full day spent cleaning up a portion of the Wechsler School, the doors opened Friday for tours so everyone could have a chance to see the historical building.
People came and went throughout the day, but early on a bus tour group stopped by. The bus was filled with Meridianites in town for the annual picnic, some of whom were able to find their high school pictures among the artifacts.
Doris J. Brown, who graduated from Wechsler in 1947 says, "It feels good to be home. Some of the places I can recognize and some of the places I cannot. They've changed the names of the streets; they've made one-way streets and some other things have changed. But I try to come back every year in order to see the changes."
The school isn't just a major historical building for both Mississippians and African Americans, but something more personal than that. The building was once a symbol for the community for generations of students. Many want to see it restored to greatness.
Melba Clark of the Wechsler Community Arts board says, "It's the last African American building in Meridian with some history and this is why it's so important to be reserved, and not only preserved, but used for good purposes."
Restoration efforts have been underway since the 1980s, but only recently have they intensified.
"We've had spells of inactivity, but now we are working on it again and this time I think it's really going to succeed because we realize the historical significance of Wechsler," says Clark.
