It appears as if somebody forgot to tell Amazon the launch date for AMD's upcoming Radeon HD 4850 graphics card.
Amazon has gone ahead and listed Diamond's ATI Radeon 4850PE3512 PCIE 512MB GDDR3 graphics card for $199.99 USD with shipping expected in one to two months. Amazon states that the card has PCI Express 2.0 support, 512MB of 256-bit GDDR3 memory, Support for Microsoft Direct X 10.1 / Shader Model 4.1, OpenGL 2.0 and Built-in HDMI support (even though the provided pictures don't show a HDMI port).
We actually started testing this graphics card today and while we are bound by NDA, we think this is going to be a very good product for AMD - that's about all we can say on the matter and we have probably already said too much.
If you are interested in getting in on the HD 4850 early, you can head on over to Amazon at this website and preorder now or until AMD makes them pull down the page.

Margaret was very pleasant with us she insists that we are comfortable in his al appartement.La close to antique shops is a must for those who love antiquing.
Margaret a ete tres agreable avec nous elle a insiste pour que nous soyons a l aise dans son appartement.La proximite de boutiques d antiquaires est un plus pour ceux qui aiment chiner.
We stayed with Margaret in Camperdown for eleven days over Christmas and the New Year. We were made very welcome and felt 'at home' very quickly. We had an en suite room with an outside patio on the top floor of a small residential block. We had use of the kitchen and could use the lounge if we wished. We tended to eat breakfast at the apartment and then were out in the daytime as there was so much to do. We mainly ate out in the evening. The apartment was centrally located giving us easy access to Sydney by public transport. Even though all her bedrooms were occupied by guests we never got in each others way.
Everything was perfect in the house. The owner Margaret is a very helpfull person. The house is situated in a very nice area and very near to the center. We'll come back for sure.
- House close to city center, bus stop right on the road against - many restaurants nearby - quiet area - Margaret gives tips on demand - mold on bathroom ceiling - ants in the bathroom - great spots on room carpet - room not lockable - living room and kitchen (see photos) are shared by Margaret, her mother and a nurse - the three sleep between kitchen and living room, so you have to always pass them to get to the kitchen - Mother is maintained there, washed, etc. - mother makes at night loud, the man in the room - to 20 usable kitchen clock - laundry washing facilities once a week - use the dryer is not allowed - in the house, another roommate lives on the top floor of the second shared bathroom - very slow internet, Wifi often not available - there is no dining table - garlic odor in the house - Margaret is a heavy smoker and smokes in the house - towels are changed weekly and smell unfortunately smoke - Linen with spots - refrigerator can be shared (we found there moldy lemons) I tried the points as objectively as possible write down. After that, anyone can form an opinion. :) Subjective: Like the lady in front of me, I would recommend the place to stay if you can do without one or two days and need an accommodation to kitchen and living room. We were there for two weeks. I would not recommend. Margaret told us that they do not like to receive Long Term Stayer.
- Haus nah zum Stadtzentrum, Bushaltestelle direkt an der Straße gegenüber
- viele Restaurants in der Nähe
- ruhige Gegend
- Margaret gibt Tipps auf Nachfrage
- Schimmel an Decke im Bad
- Ameisen im Bad
- große Flecken auf Zimmerteppich
- Zimmer nicht abschließbar
- Wohnzimmer und Küche (siehe Fotos) werden von Margaret, ihrer Mutter und einer Pflegerin mitbenutzt
- die Drei schlafen zwischen Küche und Wohnzimmer, man muss also immer an ihnen vorbei, um in die Küche zu gelangen
- Mutter wird dort gepflegt, gewaschen etc.
- Mutter macht nachts Laute, die man in den Zimmern
- Küche bis 20 Uhr benutzbar
- Wäsche waschen ein Mal in der Woche möglich
- benutzen des Trockners nicht erlaubt
- im Haus wohnt ein weiterer Mitbewohner im obersten Stock, der das zweite Bad mitbenutzt
- Internet sehr langsam, Wifi oft nicht vorhanden
- kein Essenstisch vorhanden
- Knoblauchgeruch im Haus
- Margaret ist starke Raucherin und raucht im Haus
- Handtücher werden wöchentlich ausgetauscht und riechen leider nach Qualm
- Bettwäsche mit Flecken
- Kühlschrank kann mitbenutzt werden (wir haben dort schimmlige Zitronen vorgefunden)
Ich habe versucht die Punkte so objektiv wie möglich aufzuschreiben. Danach kann sich jeder seine Meinung bilden. :)
Wie bei der Dame vor mir, würde ich die Unterkunft empfehlen, wenn man ein, zwei Tage eine Unterkunft braucht und auf Küche und Wohnzimmer verzichten kann. Wir waren zwei Wochen dort. Würde ich nicht empfehlen. Margaret hat uns mitgeteilt, dass sie nicht gerne Longterm Stayer aufnimmt.
Margarents townhouse is modern over three levels and it located down a laneway off the road. My room was very spacious, quiet with a leafy view and a very comfortable bed. Margaret lives with her elderly Mum, sister and long-term tenant, but because the townhouse is large and over three levels it never seemed crowded. The city centre was only 15 minutes by bus and the bus stop was right outside. Margaret is a friendly and helpful host.
Not quite what we expected but price was right,room was clean and comfortable and host good,we would stay again.
The room was clean & nice, and the bed was very comfortable for my wife and I. It's located close to restaurants, and in a pretty convenient location for getting into the city proper (15 min). Good WiFi. Margaret is helpful and friendly. I would stay here again.
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

Have you noticed the lax references on TV?
Lacrosse is great to see on TV. And I am not just talking about games but lacrosse in TV shows. I have been watching my TV a bit more closely to find this anomaly. Before lacrosse was able to get a major role on TV it had a nice role in a great film.
Everyone who has ever played lacrosse and likes teen films knows Stiffler from "American Pie". He is the loud mouth no one cares for but ladies are still intrigued by him, probably because he plays lacrosse.
But besides Stiffler and "American Pie", where else can we find lacrosse on TV? Well I have been keeping my eyes peeled looking for the best examples of lacrosse on TV for well over a month now, and I have found some pretty revealing stuff!
One of the first cameos for a lacrosse stick came in the first season of "Modern Family". It slips my mind what episode, but it was early on in the season. It was great to see a lacrosse stick getting some face time in a major comedy show such as "Modern Family".
Lacrosse is growing fast, and why shouldn't it reach more TV shows? Well maybe it has. Two shows on prime time TV have their main characters with Lacrosse backgrounds. One could be a favorite show of mine right now, the other is a bit different but has some very strong reasons to watch.
The lacrosse in "Perfect Couples" comes upon us in the middle of the season episode five. Right off the bat, the Lacrosse stick makes its cameo in a power position (grant it, it was a woman's stick, its still a lacrosse stick) being used as a weapon of defense. The former lacrosse player in the show is Rex. Rex is what every lacrosse player is, awesome. He has the hardest job, car salesman but not just normal cars, Bentleys and Aston Martins. Try selling something like that, its got to be hard. He also has the best looking wife on the show, Olivia Munn, and if you do not like the show and its humor that's fine because you will watch it just for her.
Back to the lacrosse. Rex in the episode talks about his high school lacrosse throughout the entire episode. He was first team all conference as an attackman. We know this from some home video he shows everyone. It is obvious, being a successful luxury car salesman, that he has brought his attackman mentality to the work place.
Hopefully this is first of many more lacrosse cameos for this show. Rex is an awesome character and it's not hard to imagine it's mostly because he played lacrosse.
This is on my list of favorite shows ever. The characters a great and the plots are out of control fun. Sterling Archer is a secret agent, and the best at that. And by the way, yeah he played lacrosse. He also lets everyone know he played lacrosse, he mentions it .67 times an episode, its math I averaged it out.
Now Archer never gives us any of his high school highlight tape, so with his personality I have come to the conclusion of what position he played and how he played it. After watching every single episode, it is obvious that Archer scores a lot… with women. This can only mean one thing, he scored a lot on the fields, he must have played attack. He is also very pompous and full of himself, perfect fit. He also attributes his spy abilities to his lacrosse career. One of my favorite quotes, when asked if he had learned how to be a spy at spy camp he responds with "I went to lacrosse camp every summer, its pretty much the same thing." I would agree with that.
Lacrosse has been making great characters for TV shows all TV season long. Hopefully this trend continues and bring lacrosse even more mainstream, because we all know it deserves to be.
Last weekend was full of lax, and I am sure it's going to be written about all week by both coach and all of the other writers of LRA. I will leave it to them so you can get on with your day.
We now get the analytics (we see how many people check out the site). Send your friends our way so we can feel good about ourselves.

Kahne Doing Double Duty In Scotts Turf Builder 300, Food City 500; Edwards And Keselowski Also Competing In Both Races
Kasey Kahne looks forward to what he knows will be two tough days of racing at Bristol Motor Speedway when he competes in the Scotts Turf Builder 300 March 20 and the Food City 500 March 21.
The way Kahne sees it, making 800 circuits around the World's Fastest Half-Mile just gives him twice the chance to stand in one of the most unique Victory Lane's in the sport.
"There's nothing like it," said Kahne. "Any time you win a race at Bristol, it's special because that place is so tough. But when you win, you get to drive into Victory Lane up on top of a building and you've got all the fans all around you... it's just really special.
"I've been able to do that in a Nationwide race (in August, 2007) and it was pretty special. But I haven't done it in a Cup race yet and that would be even more special. I'd really like to be able to be on top of that building celebrating on Saturday and Sunday."
Kahne has come close to making that goal a reality as he has come through with three top 10 showings over the past six races at BMS. Last March he finished fifth, preceded by a seventh-place effort in 2008 and in the August event of 2007, Kahne was runner-up, after starting from the pole.
"I feel like we're ready to win a Cup race at Bristol," he said. "I really like racing there and I feel like I've got a good feel for that track now. It would be something else if we could go in there and win both races. That would be a great, great weekend."
Among the other Sprint Cup drivers included in the Scotts Turf Builder 300 field are defending champion Kevin Harvick, Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch and Brad Keselowski. All are former Nationwide Series winners at BMS.
Over the last decade of Nationwide racing at Bristol Motor Speedway, there have been 15 different winners in 20 events. The only repeat winners during that time span are Kevin Harvick with five victories and Matt Kenseth with two. Harvick's five wins makes him the all-time leading winner at BMS in the Nationwide Series.
Additional Nationwide Series notes: Only two drivers have won from the pole in the March event - Rick Wilson (1989) and Jason Keller (1999); In 56 races contested at BMS, only seven have been won from the pole position; Richard Childress leads all car owners with six Nationwide wins at BMS; Morgan Shepherd and Keller both have three poles to lead all drivers; No driver has ever won at BMS starting from the 14th or 15th position; Kenny Wallace's 18 top 10s is tops among all drivers; Harvick's 12 top-five finishes leads all drivers; Chevrolet leads the way among manufacturers with 29 victories; The closest finish in BMS history in a Nationwide race came in August of 2004 when Dale Earnhardt Jr. beat Matt Kenseth by 0.100 second.
The Scotts Turf Builder 300 takes the green flag at 2:30 Saturday, March 20. The Scotts EZ Seed Showdown, featuring NASCAR legends David Pearson, Cale Yarborough, Harry Gant and Dave Marcis, follows at 6 p.m.
Tickets for the doubleheader are available at www.bristoltix.com or fans may call the ticket office at 423 BRISTOL (274-7865). Ticket prices start at just $45.

Rocket Engine, Liquid Fuel, Super Sprite, Cut Away
This is the Super Sprite, a British liquid propellant JATO (Jet-Assisted-Take-Off) rocket motor, or known to the British as a RATO (Rocket Assisted-Take-Off). It was designed by the De Havilland Engine Company to be either permanently or temporarily fixed on to a military or civilian aircraft for short bursts of extra power. The engine was good for 50 firings.
The Super Sprite had a maximum thrust of 4,200 pounds for 40 seconds, but both the thrust and duration could be adjusted to fit different mission needs. The unit was first used on the Vickers Valliant bomber. In 1955, it also became the first British rocket motor to receive approval for mass production. This engine was donated to the Smithsonian in 1970 by Rolls-Royce Ltd.

I was trying to free up some space on my Windows 7 machine and was directed to a utility called msizap.exe from Microsoft which removes orphaned msi's from the c:\windows\installer directory. My Installer directory is 12Gb on a 1 year old installation.
When I run "msizap.exe g" as an administrator it quickly returns the following. " Removing orphaned cached files No product/patch data was found "
Nothing seems to have been removed from installer.
Is it possible I have no orphan files or am I doing something wrong?

PULLMAN, Wash. - Josh Hawkinson, Ikenna `Ike' Iroegbu and Tanner Lancona have each signed a National Letter of Intent to play for the Washington State University men's basketball team next season, head coach Ken Bone announced Wednesday.
"I'm excited about this signing class not just on the court, but off the court as well," Bone said. "All three of these signees are great guys and work hard in the classroom. That's important to our program, to bring in kids that work hard on the court, but also value academics. I look forward to having all three of these young men in Cougar uniforms next season."
Josh Hawkinson (6-9, 220, PF, Shoreline, Wash./Shorewood HS) averaged 18.0 points per game during the 2011-12 season at Shorewood HS for the Thunderbirds. Hawkinson was named to the 3A All-Western Conference First Team as a junior as he led the team to a 17-6 overall record and a 13-3 league finish.
"Josh will be a great asset to the team," Bone said. "He is an extremely skilled passer that has the ability to shoot from the perimeter. In addition, he's a tremendous student and we look forward to helping him continue to develop."
Ikenna `Ike' Iroegbu (6-2, 190, G, Elk Grove, Calif./Oak Hill Academy) joined Oak Hill Academy and 2012 Naismith Coach of the Year, Steve Smith, at the start of his junior year. That year Iroegbu helped the Warriors to a 44-0 record, No. 1 national ranking, and a national championship. Prior to playing at Oak Hill, Iroegbu played at Franklin High School in Elk Grove, Calif., where he averaged 4.5 points, 3.8 assists, and 3.1 rebounds per game as a sophomore. During the 2010-11 season, the Wildcats went 10-0 in the Delta Valley League, while Iroegbu averaged 7.8 points in the final four games of the season, including a 12-point performance, going 5-of-8 from the field in the final game.
"Ike is a very athletic and quick combo guard who we hope can make an immediate impact here at WSU," Bone said. "He's a good shooter and scorer and great in transition. We enjoyed having his older brother, Chuks, here as a walk-on last season and know he's a great young man from an outstanding family."
Tanner Lancona (6-8, 225, PF, Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif./Tesoro HS) played for coach Steve Garrett and the Titans during his junior season, leading the team to a 16-13 record after averaging 14.2 points per game. During the 2011-12 season, Lancona averaged 15.5 points per game over the final four games including a season-high 29 points against El Toro High School in a 66-51 win. As a sophomore, Lancona was named to the South Coast League Second Team and was named an All-Southern Section selection after his junior campaign.
"Tanner will be another good addition to our frontcourt as a stretch-four," Bone said. "At 6-8 he can shoot the three, but he is also skilled in the paint. His ability to pass the ball shows what good of a feel he has for the game."
The Cougars host Utah Valley tonight at 7 p.m. at Beasley Coliseum.

The overall impact of arthritis might also depend on whether other health problems are present, says Furner. Researchers found that people with arthritis were more likely to rate their health as poor or fair if they were obese, or had diabetes or high blood pressure, and people with arthritis who were physically active were 50 percent less likely to rate their health as fair or poor than those who said they didn't get much exercise. This suggests that people with arthritis might be able to improve their quality of life by getting exercise and maintaining a healthy weight, for example. "These are modifiable risk factors, and that's an encouraging note," says Furner.
The authors also found that people with arthritis who admitted to frequent heavy drinking were less likely than non-drinkers to rate their health as fair or poor, and reported fewer physically unhealthy days. This doesn't suggest that such drinking is healthy, however: In the later years of the survey, people answered questions about emotional support, and Furner and her colleagues saw higher levels among people with arthritis who drank more alcohol. Emotional support, specifically in the form of a strong social network, may help protect against the negative effects of a chronic condition, she says.
Financial considerations also appeared to play a role. People with arthritis who were out of work, unable to work or who said cost was a barrier to proper care were more likely to report poor or fair health than those who were employed and could afford appropriate health care.
The results are interesting, but more research is needed to elucidate cause and effect in some cases, says Edward Yelin, PhD, professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. For example, he adds, "People may stay physically active because they don't have arthritis or don't have it as severely – or are people who are more active less likely to get it?"
Some factors associated with quality of life in arthritis make particular sense, such as the added burden of other diseases like diabetes, notes Patience White, MD, a professor of Medicine and Pediatrics at George Washington University School of Medicine. "The more chronic illness you have, the tougher it is for you to do anything," she says.
Overall, the study "has some lessons for all of us to learn in how people with arthritis can improve their quality of life," says Dr. White, who is also vice president of public health at the Arthritis Foundation.
This large study helps provide very "reliable estimates" of some of the challenges people with arthritis face, says Yelin. "There's nothing all that surprising about it. But it does give us some notion, with this sample from all 50 states, of how severe these impacts can be."

Only 0.001 per cent of the world's population own a brown

true colours with today's deal: $39 for four hand car washes with wax, full detailing

A new era in science has made it possible for people who are not quite ready for cosmetic surgery to embark into the world of cosmetic injections. Although they do not have the same effects as surgical intervention, the improvements can be quite significant.
Over time, sun exposure without a solar defense can promote premature skin damage. And in San Diego, this can be an ongoing challenge.
If sunscreen isn't applied regularly, skin structure will become compromised. Collagen production may begin to slow down, and with this, fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear. The facial aging process typically originates with wrinkles around the eyes, frown lines along the forehead, loss of volume in the cheeks, and lines around the mouth.
The good news is that different types of cosmetic injections, otherwise considered liquid facelifts, can address these areas to help defy the aging process.
And San Diego plastic surgeons have really perfected the art of these injections to help smooth out wrinkles and add volume for a boost of youth.
Beginning at the forehead, the one product which continues to offer exceptional results to remove wrinkles for the upper half of the face including the forehead and around the eyes is Botox®. Botulinum toxin, the main ingredient in Botox®, encourages muscles not to contract, which helps erase wrinkles for up to a few months. Some patients note how the results last longer.
In regards to fillers, it's recommended for patients to only consider re-absorbable fillers to temporarily treat moderate to severe lines. It's highly suggested and urged to stay away from permanent fillers.
Very new to the market to treat the mid portion of the face is the first hyaluronic acid re-absorbable filler which has been FDA approved, JUVÉDERM Voluma™. This injectable gel adds subtle volume to the cheek area. Voluma™ acts as a longer acting hyaluronic acid product and offers immediate results.
As people age, their cheeks collapse and drift down towards the jowl area. By augmenting the cheek, from an oblique view, there is a nice convexity after a Voluma™ treatment. Additionally, it may also improve nasolabial folds. Typically, the results from Voluma™ cosmetic injections will last up to two years.
For those only wanting to treat nasolabial folds, once again, a hyaluronic acid re-absorbable filler is highly suggested, such as JUVÉDERM™. This treatment, which lasts up to a year, plumps out the lines located around the nose and mouth.
Cosmetic injections play an important role in facial rejuvenation. While it is minimally invasive, it unveils more aesthetic goals with little to no downtime.

Jim graduated from Oakley (Kan.) High School, where he earned letters in football, basketball and track. He qualified for the state track-meet his senior year and was a member of two team conference championships.
He followed his father and sister in the tradition of attending Baker. After winning three events in intramural competition as a freshman, he was convinced by Coach Jim Irick (HOF-1982) to participate at the varsity level his final three years. He lettered all three of those years as a high jumper and long jumper. In the long jump, he finished second at the conference meet one year and was conference champion the other two years. In the process, he broke a 34-year-old school record with a leap of 22' 11 ½". Over the course of the next two years he went on to break his own record three more times. His best jump at 23' 5 1/2" remains the fourth longest in Baker school history. That jump was the 11th best in the nation among NAIA schools in 1963. He finished fourth and sixth in the high jump two years at the conference meet. On campus, he was a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and was a member and president of the "B" club.
After graduation he joined the U.S. Army Reserve and later spent two years as a district scout executive in Douglas and Wyandotte counties in Kansas. In 1967, he joined Baker's admissions staff, where he began a lifelong career in education. He went on to hold director of admissions positions with two colleges in Colorado and Tennessee that eventually led him to co-found and become CEO of Career Communications Inc. of Overland Park, Kan. Career Communications has provided career and technical educational opportunities to millions of students and parents in all 50 states since the company's founding in 1990.
Also following graduation he continued to compete as an amateur athlete. In 1974 and 1975 he went undefeated in his age group in the long jump, high jump and triple jump while competing for the Denver Track Club. In 1976 he finished sixth in the state of Colorado in the decathlon at a seniors meet held at the University of Colorado.
Jim has remained active at Baker through the years and was a member and president of the Alumni Association Board of Directors and served as a member of the Presidential Search Committee in 1986. He has served on numerous other volunteer boards and has received several awards for his service and professional accomplishments. He has twin daughters, Kim and Kelly.

Support 101 - Where do I begin?
Finding support for your product can seem daunting. However, we've simplified this process by putting together a list of first steps to get you on your way.
- Determine what product you have by finding your Product Code/Number.
- Find your Product Code/Number on the Support Main Menu Page, then go to your Product's Support Page.
- View or download files. Look at our example Support page below, it points out locations on the page for files and offers quick explanations for file types available.
Let's get started!
1. Find your product code. We can help by having you choose your category:
| External Modems/ISDN
Internal Modems/ISDN
| External Broadband/Networking
Internal Networking
Note: product codes, product IDs, and model numbers are all very similar.
Product codes typically include "USR", 2 number country code, 4 number model number, and 1 letter revision version.
Product IDs include 2 number country code, 4 number model number, and 2 number revision version.
Model numbers are 4 numbers and do not include revision version.
You have chosen External Modems/ISDN.
Your Product Code is printed on a label attached to the bottom of your product.
All new (manufactured after 2000) USR modem product codes start with a "USR" and are followed with a series of numbers and possibly a letter (for example, USR5686E). Some labels list the product number instead of the product code (for example, 005686-04). If you don't see a USR#### then look for a series of numbers that look like this ######-## (6 digits - dash - 2 digits). The older modems may follow a different format and may have a 3C, 3CP, 00 (for US as shown above), or a 32 or 26 (for CA) preceding the numbers.
If you have a product code of USR + 6 numbers (for example, USR015633) OR you did not purchase your product in the U.S. or Canada then you most likely need to go to another support section. Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific have different support. Go to www.usr.com/support and select your region.
If you still cannot find your product code, refer to the Modem Identification Wizard. Prodict ID is also the product number. The last 2 numbers are the revision version (01=A, 02=B). It may not work with all products.
NOTE: Be sure to look at the label closely, sometimes the FCC model number matches your Product Code, but as shown in the example above, it does not match. Also note that some of the older products may now be out of warranty and may not be listed on our support pages.
2. On the main support page, use one of these two ways to select your product:
Use the boxes at the top of page to select your product by categories and then select Drivers, Firmware, Docs and FAQs
Select your product from the lists below the boxes.
Note: If you found your Product Code/Number and do not see your product in the lists, it is either no longer supported or it is manufactured for distribution in another region. There are regional links at the top of the main support page.
Not able to determine your product code: E-mail a technician.
3. After you have found your product's support page, you will have a variety of different files available. Here is a quick description of what may be available. The image on the right shows where they are located on the support page.
- Documents - User Guides (Manuals), Installation Guides, Reference Guides
- FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions including topics and issues related to the product; i.e., troubleshooting, wireless performance range, product support announcements, V.92 information, etc.
- Drivers - Files used to make your product work with Windows or other operating systems; typically an .inf file or embedded in an .exe file. For example, if you update your Windows from 98 to XP, you will most likely need a new driver.
- Firmware - Software that is permanently stored in the product's memory. For example, a V.92 update stores new information in the product after installation.

Saw this thread while investigating what sounds like the same problem with my jeep. The check gauge light came on and my battery gauge bottomed out. But weird thing is, it ran fine. I drove it a few miles home, and turned it off, then started it again and the same thing happened real quick. What should I approach first since it's running ok. I do have some rust damage underneath. This jeep came from Detroit so its been in salt and snow for a long time, I just bought it and this is the first time its done anything weird. I could have a corroded connection or should I go right at Alternator being the culprit. Thanks in advance for any advice,this is my first Jeep

Yes, your alternator is the culprit as the engine is running on battery power. Before you purchase a new one, though, take it to your local Autozone, Pepboys, Checker, or the like and have them test it. They will do it for free. I take it since you didn't say the steering became hard, that the serpentine belt is still running correctly. If it was difficult to steer, this would be the issue.

Magazine of the painting blogosphere.
Anne Russinof posts a photo blog of a visit the exhibition Peter Acheson: Rusted Giacometti at Novella, New York, curated by JJ Manford and Peter Acheson, on view through November 17, 2013.
Co-curator JJ Manford writes in the press release: "Peter paints with a lexicon of linear marks, and archaic symbols which are sometimes arranged in ways that push and vibrate the plain outward, but this does not account for the paintings' expansiveness. It is because they are emphatically not predetermined that they do not imply any ideas about wholeness or completeness, just presence.
It is in Peter's insistently unselfconscious approach to painting where he seems to be fighting against recognition, in order to flirt with the abyss. When too much thinking gets in the way, Peter takes action and thrusts us back into the realm of perception. This is not about understanding, but looking and being."
Maria Calandra visits the studio of painter JJ Manford.
Calandra writes that she finds "elements of [JJ's] new paintings reading like a fantastical projection of what you might see happening inside the artists' mind or behind their eyes. I suppose this could be visual, intellectual or scientific. It is almost as though he has arrived at the work by painting what he sees when he closes his eyes just after looking at a bright light, with his marks that make up noisy circular flashes and strings of electric color. Maybe he is giving the synapses (those rapid transfers of signals that happen in the brain from one cell to the next) a pictorial description. I liked thinking that the figures that he has begun to use, which act somewhat autobiographically, form a narrative of his past experiences. The figures appear quite appropriately with the abstracted synapses — as they play a major role in the formation of our memory."

Central. Clean. Spacious.
the apartment was super delicious and is located in a lovely area with local shopping option and close to the city center. it is not the last time I rent from there. I give it four stars out of what we got for the price, the only negative experience was that there were only linen, duvets and pillows for 4 people and not the 5 that were commissioned.
lejligheden var super lækker og ligger i et dejligt område med lokale indkøbs mulighed og tæt på bymidten. det er ikke sidste gang jeg lejer derfra.
jeg giver den fire stjerner ud fra hvad vi fik for prisen, den eneste negative oplevelse var at der kun var sengetøj, dyner og hovedepuder til 4 personer og ikke de 5 som der var bestilt til.
TV went every 3 min. from! No one is there to help. No air conditioning. Simply too expensive for service ... 0 Location is OK
TV ging alle 3 min. aus!
Niemand der da ist, um zu helfen.
Keine Klimaanlage.
Einfach zu teuer für 0 Service...
Lage ist OK
Beautiful apartment located in an area but work in very noisy day. When we arrived on a Sunday, lacked toilet paper .... (closed) ... and kitchen towels. Apartment for 6 people, but there were only 5 water glasses and nothing to put his business in the bathroom lit by a single 25 watt bulb .. For delivery in Germany, the service is not up to our expectations. Take the example of Switzerland ....
Bel appartement bien situé mais dans un secteur en travaux donc très bruyant la journée.
A notre arrivée un dimanche, manquait le papier toilette....(magasins fermés)... et les torchons de cuisine.
Appartement pour 6 personnes, mais il n'y avait que 5 verres à eau et rien pour poser ses affaires dans la salle de bain éclairée par une seule ampoule de 25 watts..
Pour une prestation en Allemagne, la prestation n'est pas à la hauteur de notre attente. Prendre exemple sur la Suisse....
Very nice apartment in a very nice part of Berlin. Spacy and clean, with a nice little terrace. A few minor details could be better, but overall a very pleasent stay.
Great place. Clean and bright and excellent location right next to Hallesches Tor station and just down the road to Checkpoint Charlie. Mehringdam Platz is not the most exciting place but other cooler places are very easy to get to (I recommend Krezueberg for uber fantastisch nightlife). Toilet cistern made a constant, annoying dripping sound but this is a very minor gripe. I vote yes!
We had an amazing time staying in the apartment! The views from the balcony were great and the location was ideal for travelling around the city. Couldn't of stayed in a better place and we will definitely be booking again!!
Nice apartment, clean and functional, well located for public transport (metro station just outside) and not far (by metro) of the main attractions of the city. But not good if you want to party.
Chouette appartement, propre et fonctionnel, bien situé par rapport aux transports en commun (station metro juste devant) et pas loin (en metro) des principaux sites à visiter de la ville. Mais pas bien situé si vous voulez faire la fête.
Thanks for some great days in Berlin. It was a very good apartment, with a lovely location. It was bright and with a lot of space. The beds were very good, and comfy, but the shower was very low. There where lots of opportunities with places to eat, places to shop and tourist attractions, and good possibilities for public transport. We liked the WI-FI and the TV. It would have been better thuough if there were some international channels. The apartment was clean, and with good space in the closets. The kitchen was okay, but there wasn´t so many tools. Overall it where a nice place to stay, when you are visiting Berlin.Troels Bergholt-and students
Very well planned and functional apartment. Clean and fresh and well equipped. Friendly and helpful front desk function belongs to the apartment. Small minus: a bit far from the subway but good bus links. Arbitrary function on TV
Mycket välplanerad och funktionell lägenhet. Rent och fräscht och bra utrustad. Trevlig och hjälpsam receptionsfunktion hör till lägenheten.
Små minus: lite långt till T-banan men bra bussförbindelser. Opålitlig funktion på TV:n.

Apple's Jony Ive, Craig Federighi Say it's Quality Over Quantity When it Comes to iPhone 5S/5C Specs

The hardware/software team is more worried about perfecting features rather than rolling out several new ones
When people think about
products like the iPhone or iPad, the face they normally place behind the success is usually the top dogs like
CEO Tim Cook
or even co-founder and Apple legend Steve Jobs. But behind the public faces are two men who have worked quietly, yet obsessively to make Apple products what they are today: Jony Ive and Craig Federighi.
Sir Jonathan Paul Ive (who prefers to go by "Jony"), senior vice president of design at Apple Inc., recently sat down with
USA Today
for an interview before the launch of the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C. Ive was joined by Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of software engineering.
Ive joined Apple's design team in 1992 while Federighi was employed at Jobs' NeXT venture in 1994, but went to Apple when it acquired NeXT. He left in 1999 but returned a decade later.
The two are a solid team working behind the scenes on each Apple device, marrying hardware and software in a new way never seen before at Apple until iOS 7.
During the
USA Today
interview, Ive and Federighi talked a lot about
the new iPhones
(which are being released today), but made one point real clear: they're not out to release "new"; they're out to release "better," and they're not worried about what the competition is doing.
According to Ive and Federighi, many competitors are trying to release the next big thing with a spec sheet full of new features packed into one device. But
Apple's super team that is Ive and Federighi
feel it's more important to perfect certain features rather than roll out a ton of half-brewed ones.
"Look at the camera space, companies are chasing megapixels but the pictures often look horrible because of their tiny sensors," said Federighi. "My family cares about taking a good picture, not a megapixel count. We carry that through to all the decisions we make about our phone. What experience is it going to deliver? Not what number will it allow us to put on a spec sheet."
Ive agreed.
"That is exactly it," said Ive. "It's just easier to talk about product attributes that you can measure with a number. Focus on price, screen size, that's easy. But there's a more difficult path, and that's to make better products, ones where maybe you can't measure their value empirically.
"This is terribly important and at the heart of what we do. We care about how to design the inside of something you'll never see, because we think it's the right thing to do."
Ive and Federighi say Apple sells more than just devices with the latest specs, but also a philosophy that each and every detail will be carefully examined. Take the iPhone 5S' new fingerprint scanner, for example.
"This right here is what I love about Apple, this incredibly sophisticated powerful technology that you're almost not aware of, it absolutely blows me away," said Ive. "You can't get this without working cross-functionally."
Ive also made it clear that Apple isn't worried about what the competition is up to.
"We, and the people who buy our products, steer us," said Ive. "It's certainly not other corporations at all, and we've shown that for a long time.
"I would love, love, love to show you what we are working on now, but I'd lose my job."
One major complaint against Apple is that it isn't innovating the way it did when Jobs was around. Instead of introducing the next big thing, like the iPhone was in 2007 and the iPad was in 2010, there are concerns surrounding the fact that Apple has only tweaked its pre-existing devices since the death of Jobs in 2011.
"I've been here for years, and the way we're working is the same," said Ive. "Nothing's changed in terms of that. We're trying to solve problems in terms of future products that are incredibly complex, whose resolutions have no precedent. And then sometimes there are a lot of people who talk about stuff who aren't at Apple anymore, so that's a self-selecting group."
"People come here for the values that are evident in every product we build," added Federighi. "When we make decisions, it's not a battle of people trying to break us out of our value system. We all want to double down on these values, whose aim is to make things simpler, more focused. Those are spoken and unspoken mantras in all the discussions we have. You can call that Steve's legacy, but it's Apple

RE: Funny excuses for releasing a mediocre device
Yes, for me Android is open source. I can download the source code of the currently released Android version, modify the way I like, compile and release it and further develop it. I can do with it whatever I want, without any restrictions! (see CyanogenMod, MIUI, all the other modifications built by Samsung, HTC, Sony, ...)
The development of the next version is private and not open, but this doesn't change the fact, that the source code is open and free!
The Google apps are closed source, but those have nothing to do with Android, because they are seperate and you're independet of them. You can use other markets, maps apps, etc. If you don't like Google, you can avoid them, but still use Android.
And btw. 'closed open source' is nonsense.
I haven't said that Apple is the only one with marketing words. But those two here in the interview said that they don't really care about them.
So I just said that Apple likes and uses specs as much as Samsung or others to illustrate the superiority of their latest device and it's nonsense what those two are talking with the Quality vs. Quantity.
Apple is the one who constantly bragged with how much they sold, how much faster it is, ...
They know exactly that the current device is not what customers and investors wanted/expected, and to avoid to admit it (clearly they can't admit such a thing) they start inventing such random nonsense to justify the poor specs (tiny display, huge borders) of the iPhone 5S.
RE: Funny excuses for releasing a mediocre device
Google releases their source code only after they've released their device and does not commit their updates before hand - closed point 1. Sometimes, as with what happened with Honeycomb, they don't even release the source code for some time - closed point 2. Finally, you can't even claim it's "Android" unless your device meets their specs - closed point 3 - only, to meet their specs, you generally need some proprietary piece of hardware. Why do you need hardware to use the "open source" software name?
Yes, Apple does play into investors and the media with its numbers, but it has always touted quality vs quantity. That was the whole essence of what Jobs wanted to begin with - taking the bulky computer and making a household masterpiece and not something you put in the basement, but something you could show off. Apple wasn't selling more Macs then MS devices, they sold Macs at a huge premium and hardly had any market share before the iPod, but the computers they sold were solid - personally, I didn't care because at the time I was a Microsoft/Linux shop. Regardless, quality and design were the two main focuses.
Your last point may be true, who knows. Aside for the screen size, which may be the main focus because it's easy to see initially, I think they put out a device that is really nice. The camera was a great step - finally, a larger pixel sensor - the fingerprint reader can be useful, but the big thing, I think, is what most people won't really talk about - the 64bit processor. They've loaded more registers to make it potentially awesome. While these devices (4S/5) may not be able to handle it, in the iOS beta they had a panoramic wallpaper that changed with your position - that is a neat effect that we'll see in the devices to come. The 64b processing will help in keeping the battery cost low.
Apple's biggest challenge is keeping up with (ahead of) the other manufacturers. When you're one company competing against many and only coming up with one product a year, you have to be ahead of the curve. Apple is sitting on a phone that's a smaller screen size that Apple-minded consumers have to
deal with
for a whole other year, but the fingerprint, camera, and processor may give them enough edge for at least half a year.
"It looks like the iPhone 4 might be their Vista, and I'm okay with that." -- Microsoft COO Kevin Turner
