I do not suggest anyone with warranty or without electronics knowledge to open up and attempt your own repairs. By doing so, Sling will void your warranty. In the event if you troubleshoot wrongly, you'll lose your opportunity for RMA. Sling had not publicly acknowledge bad caps as the cause of freezing as of the time this article is bring published, but they've started to RMA boxes they deemed are faulty even when they are out of warranty. It is at your own risk if you decided not to wait for Sling's announcement and conduct your own repairs.
Many people have reported success in reviving their boxes, but did not leave any documentations to convince others, especially the engineers and technical support over at Sling this could be the cause for majority of the users. I am not the first to discover the solution, but decided to open up my out-of-warrenty box after reading feedbacks from other users. Indeed, 2 of the capacitors have bulged in my set.
Tools and components needed
Phillips screwdriver
Pen-knife (you don't have to tear off the entire label underneath the box, just slice across will do)
2 x 470uF 16V capacitors
Soldering Iron
Solder strip
Suction pump
As promised that I'll document the repair of my Slingbox Solo. Since I'm banned from posting in the Sling's support forums, the details will be posted here for all to see. *shame* on Sling for not acknowledging the capacitors possibilities despite so many user's successful repair story and banning users they deem as hitting the right note.
Before starting off, these are the 3 images posted by me in Sling's forum and removed by their moderators.
The only good capacitor for now – 220uF 16V.
On inspection, there are 2 bulging capacitors manufactured by G.Luxon rated 470uF 16V. The other capacitor rated 220uf 16V does not show any signs of bulging yet. But this does not mean it may not bulge later. I'll replace these 2 capacitors first while the other can wait.
Another find – There is a gap between the base of the 2 bulging capacitors and the PCB. Although this does not have any effect on the caps operations, the question remains why is it on these 2 caps again? The extra gap created to allow these 2 capacitors to bulge? The other 220uF capacitor is fully seated on the PCB. Anyone observant enough to see the bulging at the bottom as well.
The 220uF capacitor is well seated on the PCB.
Now, these are the 2 replacement capacitors that will be replacing the original bulging ones. Cost of the 2 components – Singapore Dollars $1.80 (~USD $1.30). Much cheaper than paying for shipping to RMA back to US. Question : Will Sling be supporting RMA if the users are not located in countries they're operating in?
Before removing the caps, I've marked them and their location for any referencing if needed later.
(I need to borrow a multimeter that is able to read capacitance).
And 10 minutes later … the new caps are on the PCB, ready to perform their functions later.
Another bad caps assumption will be proven in minutes to come.
Now, from side view, all the capacitors are no longer bulging and fully seated on the PCB.
Does anyone knows that besides the normal 3 LEDs that lights up when the box is in operation, the board still have 4 LEDs lighting up at the sides? The white box under the naked Solo (PCB only) is the Hava Titanium.
And these are the 2 extracted bad caps from Sling … a prized possession or trash?
I'll try to borrow a multimeter capable of measuring capacitance and read off the values of these 2 failed components. See how far off they're away from their rated values.
Viewing the pictures alone does not tell much about the success or failure of the repair job.
This video shows the frustration and number of attempts to force the box to work before repair is carried out. If anyone encounters the same thing, look no further, very likely the capacitors are the cause. ISP throttling or corrupted/buggyfirmware, firewall, anti-virus are not the likely cause if your unit had been functioning well before. Feel free to get Sling's technical support team to view this thread and site. (Perhaps we can help train Sling's technical support team too. We provide the video clips.)
Now after repairs. A single click and the box streams flawlessly. My box is back to life, how about yours?
Note: Screen capture is done using Windows Media Encoder which did not render the colours properly and this is also a documentary using old archived film, resulting in poor picture quality. Video quality is the same as before. If anyone have any doubts, I can always do another capture with my video cam.
To prevent copyright violation, only 4:36 minutes of the stream is captured. This should be enough to show the success of the repairs if you compare the 2 clips. Finally, no more frustrations.
I'll put my box through 48 hours of streaming burn-in test. If the caps or functions does not fail by then, I'll consider the repair a success. Hope you guys benefit from reading this.
My next planned mod after the burn-in test.
The box runs hot while in operation. The angled design of the box makes it great for adding in 2 5V fans at the sides. Power can be tapped from the unused USB portto pump in and extract the hot air out of the box. an on/off switch is also an option. Some drilling and cutting will be required. Not recommended if you do not have the know how. (Sling's product does need some improvements after all.)
Some other users have also reported their power adapter failing. Power adapters do have capacitors in them as well. I am not sure for now if these failing adapters are related to bad caps. When mine fails, I'll open up and do another report if necessary.
I seriously need help, can someone help post the link of this thread to Sling's support forum so that the community there is able to benefit from this.

What is in this article?:
- Cotton acreage responds to price
- Good crops in 2010
- Beltwide increase likely
More About:
Tennessee cotton farmers could add as many as 100,000 acres and could hit a half-million planted in 2011 said University of Tennessee cotton specialist Chris Main.
Darren Dodds, Mississippi State University Extension cotton specialist, anticipates acreage to top 500,000, possibly to 550,000 in 2011. Most expansion will come from north of highway 82, Dodds said. Southern Mississippi has put a lot of acres into corn.
"Last year was very good for cotton," he said.
Charlie Burmeister, Auburn University, said Alabama had a less than ideal cotton year, however. "For some farmers, it was the best year ever; for others it was the worst. Average state yield will be about 600 pounds. So for 2011, it depends on who you talk to as to how enthusiastic they are about cotton acreage."
He said corn had a good year in 2010 and will compete for acreage. "But we've seen interest in cotton pickers in North Alabama. So we still have folks excited about cotton."
Burmeister said farmers are concerned about Palmer pigweed. "We're beginning to see it come in."
Dale Monks, also an Auburn Extension cotton specialist, anticipates 350,000 planted acres for 2011.
Kansas cotton farmers likely will add acres in 2011, said Extension agronomist Stu Duncan. "Acres could range from 50,000 to 100,000," Duncan said, "but I expect it to be nearer 100,000."
He said 2010 was a good year for Kansas cotton, "the second highest average yield on record with some irrigated cotton making 3 to 3.5 bales per acre and netting more than $1,000 per acre."
Area of concern may be dryland acreage in Southwest Kansas, he said. "Some of that area had the driest season ever."

CGI.pm is old and venerable. But it has a lot of cruft (HTML generation, etc).
Apache::Request is all about requesty things like GET/POST params, cookies, etc.
It is therefore much, much smaller memory wise. It's also much faster. So why
doesn't everyone use it? Well like you said, CGI is a standard Perl module. It's
everywhere that Perl is. Apache::Request needs to installed separately. And for
most applications the speed that A::R gives you won't really make that much
difference. Parameter parsing is almost never a bottleneck in a real application.

Jigokudani is a home of the world-famous "snow monkeys". 200 or so Japanese Macaque monkeys inhabit the area and despite the harsh conditions (snow-covered for one-third of the year) and the rough cliffs and hot springs bursting from the ground, the area is paradise for the monkeys. The reason is that hot spring water collects in pools that the monkeys enjoy bathing in. This provides an opportunity for us humans to watch the Macaque up close and observe their fascinating behavior.

We used this to cover the walls in the school gym for our VBS program. It held paint well and was easy to hang with packing tape.
Sturdy paper, covered large items that could be moved well.
Best Uses
I made large mirror frames 4'X 6'(with the turquoise flat paper),also sprayed with glitter, put mylar(silver) paper in center and a big letter "D" in the center of the "mirror"(these go along a hallway).
I also, made big "D" letters,(in fancy writing), with the turquoise paper(I lined the back of the letter with clear tape first then cutout) and sprayed them with glitter spray. They look amazing, I am placing these letters in 6 different niches. Yes it was tedious work but well worth the effort:)
Best Uses

Interview Tips: Asking What The Next Step Is
|Email Print
So you've just finished up the whirlwind day(s) or hour(s) of interviews and you're chatting with the HR person and they've asked you if you had any questions. Chances are you don't because you've asked all the ones you've had about a company during the other interviews, but the one question you must always ask the HR person is "what is the next step?" This is the best question in the world to ask because it asks several things at once.
1. It should address when the prospective employer will respond with an offer or a polite rejection letter. If they ask you when you need to hear by, tell them within a week.
2. If they need another round of interviews, this should come up as well. If there is any sort of process that should take place between when you leave and when you get a letter, it should be answered by this question.
3. It's better than having no question at all.
When you walk out the door, you better get an idea of when you can expect to hear something. If you don't, you've messed up.{ 0 comments, please add your thoughts now! }

Westchester County, which lies directly north of New York City, is well known for its many classic suburban communities where cars line up at train stations at 6 p.m. each day to pick up returning executives and money managers. Through the first half of this decade, it was difficult to find homes for less than $1 million in such Westchester towns as Rye, Larchmont, Scarsdale, Chappaqua and Bedford.

Syracuse, NY -- The financially-strapped Boys & Girls Clubs of Syracuse is getting back on its feet with help from The Salvation Army.
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Syracuse has been struggling for the past few years because of loss of grants and a significant decrease in donations. In an effort to reduce costs, the organization has restructured their administrative staff. They are now receiving administrative assistance from The Salvation Army.
"We've restructured and made some cuts," said Dave Hazelton, chair of the board for the Boys & Girls Clubs. "We've reduced our administrative costs and we are stronger than we've been in years."
The Salvation Army is volunteering their assistance with administration duties in the areas of human resources and finance.
Hazelton said the clubs have been working on a 90-day plan since October and are making several positive changes.
At the four clubs' sites – East Fayette Street, Hamilton Street, Shonnard Street and Central Village, a total of 285 youth are served every day. In the clubs' school-based programs, 1,070 youth are served.
"The key component here is that we continue to provide our services to the youth in the community," Hazelton said.
For information on volunteering or donating, visit www.bgcsyracuse.org.

COLONY — The Colony Knights ran away with a victory over the Soldotna Stars, literally. After escaping with a three-point victory earlier in the season, the Knights defeated the Stars 45-24 on Friday night at Colony High School.
Julie Litchfield led the Stars in scoring with eight points, and teammate Heidi Westerman chipped in five. Mary Klapperich led the Knights in scoring with 23 points.
Klapperich's counterpart, SoHi senior Kaillee Skjold, would not enjoy the kind of offensive freedom as Klapperich. Skjold was held scoreless by a tireless Colony defense.

Every morning I take an hour-long walk through the streets of the Shaker Heights neighborhood where I was raised. The Onaway neighborhood, thank you very much, merely the home to the best elementary school in the world. I went there, so I know.
I walk down the streets, canopied by great oak and maple trees, past all the houses dating from the 1910s and '20s — handsome stock built in variations of French, Georgian, English, Colonial and Tudor. These have mostly three or four bedrooms (not forgetting the third-floor teen suite!) and each emanates its own unique warmth. I know them all intimately, because I've walked these same streets every single day for 25 years.
Sounds boring, doesn't it? Monotonous. Yet I haven't been bored once on my walks, not a single time. On my strolls I ponder things great and small, personal and universal, and these peaceful homes and trees and lawns keep my mind settled when, during rough times, it wants to leap up and out. When I'm all over the place, these streets keep me at home, in every sense.
They take me back to myself as a kid of the 1960s and early 1970s. A child of the ultimate affluent Midwestern suburb, a place cultivated and forward thinking, with its reputation for fine schools and history of early, successful integration.
Growing up in Shaker, though, I didn't think much about that. Like any kid, I was wrapped up in my own small world, made up of roads named Chadbourne, Huntington, Warrington, Onaway, Woodbury, Aldersyde. The street I lived on was Van Aken Boulevard, across from the rapid transit tracks that led east to the Shaker border, and west past Shaker Square, to downtown Cleveland's Terminal Tower.
Forty years later I retake the route from home to school. Back in the '60s, though, I'd cut through our next-door neighbor's back yard through yet another back yard — the fabled "shortcut" that shaved a good five minutes off the time it took to get to school — to my friend Albie's house. Albie lived in the kind of home where the furniture is covered in plastic and a mess is not allowed. His dad would be lying in front of their snazzy Zenith color television, changing channels with a then-unfathomable remote control. In the spotless kitchen, I'd wait for Albie to finish his jam and toast and off we'd go.
Chadbourne ran into Onaway Road, and we followed it all the way to school, crunching leaves in the fall, throwing snowballs in the winter along the way, crossing the intersections at Warrington and Huntington, until we got to Woodbury Road. There, Bill the policeman cheerily supervised the busy crosswalk action in front of the school.
I loved Onaway. I thrived in the stability of a single teacher and the familiar faces of my friends. All of them lived within a few blocks of me: Albie and Bill and Pete and Mike and Steve.
We saw each other every day in school, then played together afterward. On my afternoon walks today, I don't see kids playing after school unless it's organized; we played pickup football and softball games on the Onaway fields until dinner. I can't think of a better thing to do when you're 10 or 11 — playing outside with your friends by the school, riding your Schwinn to and from your house, carrying a football to the game or looping your mitt on the handlebars.
This idyllic life ended in the seventh grade with my entrance into Woodbury Junior High School, a stone's throw from Onaway, but miles away experientially. Students from five other Shaker elementary schools poured into Woodbury. On the first day of the school year, in September 1967, we were given printed schedules divided into "modules" — what? — that were absolutely flabbergasting to kids used to being in one room all day.
So I shuffled in large, sometimes hostile groups of kids from one class to another, in such bewilderment that I couldn't adjust, and my grades went from sixth-grade straight A's to seventh-grade C's and D's. This was my first encounter with those cold, metal hallway lockers, too, rather than my own neat little grade-school desk. (To this day I have bad dreams about fumbling with the Master Lock, trying desperately to remember the combination.)
As Shaker was a pioneer of community integration, African-American kids from other schools in the district came to Woodbury. Another culture shock. These kids talked differently, seemed tougher, harder, more disdainful of authority. Of course they weren't; they were as terrified as the rest of us. But they frightened and intimidated me, and it took me a few years to get over it. I walk down Southington Road today and stop on the spot where Fred pounded my chest and laughed at my fear, which my frantic wisecracking couldn't hide. At all.
The world outside, too, was headed for a scary new place with riots and violent antiwar protests. In early April 1968, the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot, some black students went through the school halls, angrily jeering at and punching white ones.
Even the new music disconcerted me. I was used to the pre-psychedelic Beatles, Young Rascals, Motown, Beach Boys, Lovin' Spoonful, the Mamas and the Papas. Then I started hearing strange, disquieting stuff from Jimi Hendrix, Cream, The Doors. It was nasty. Music, which used to be fun, had turned sour, like school.
My refuge from all this was our home on Van Aken Boulevard. I walk by it now at least three times a week, sometimes stopping in front of it, just remembering. A large Tudor revival built in 1926, it still, to me, looks like the most beautiful home in Shaker Heights. My parents moved out of it in 1975, and I haven't set foot in it since. I want to recall it as it was, roomy and elegant, the shiny tiles in the spacious front hall still the same triangular design. We had the best yard, too, big enough for baseball and football games.
In the summer, my father would sit out on the outdoor patio drinking a Stroh's, listening to Bob Neal and Herb Score announce the Indians games on the radio. In the fall my brothers and I kicked and threw the football around in the big front yard, particularly on Sunday afternoons after Browns victories, frequent back then.
I stand today in front of our house, mildly irritated over how the "new" owners — who bought it from my parents 30-plus years ago — have ruined our football field with their shrubbery and plantings. The buckeye tree in the front yard is gone now, but I remember exactly where it was. My buddies and I chucked the nuts with their spiky green shells at each other, then opened them to find the buckeye inside, with its perfect shiny brownness and tan cap.
A rapid train goes by behind me, making the same sound I grew up with, that familiar clackclackclack I'd hear every night lying in bed. On its way west to downtown, the train will make a stop at Shaker Square, a unique shopping center built in the 1920s and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, now reborn with great shops, restaurants and a classic movie theater.
Maybe I ought to be embarrassed that, apart from college, I never left Shaker to live somewhere new, a place completely different from it. I'm just not. Happy here.

Irving injured in Cavs' loss to Raptors
TORONTO -- Amir Johnson scored 17 points and matched his career high with 16 rebounds, Alan Anderson scored 10 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter and the Toronto Raptors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 100-96 Sunday night.
Star guard Kyrie Irving was knocked out by an apparent shoulder injury late in the third quarter as Cleveland lost for the fourth time in five games.
Irving was hurt when he collided with Toronto rookie Jonas Valanciunas on a baseline drive with 2 minutes, 4 seconds left in the third. He shot the resulting free throws one-handed. Irving made the first but missed the second before walking off and heading to the locker room. He finished with 12 points.
- Heat 105, Pacers 91: At Miami, Mario Chalmers scored 26 points, Chris Bosh added 24 and the Heat won their 18th straight game, easily topping Indiana.
The 18-game streak ties the seventh-longest in NBA history, and is the league's best since the Boston Celtics won 19 straight during the 2008-09 season. Miami will try for No. 19 when it hosts Atlanta on Tuesday night.
- Lakers 90, Bulls 81: At Los Angeles, Dwight Howard scored 16 points and grabbed 21 rebounds, Kobe Bryant chipped in with 19 points, nine assists and seven rebounds, and the Lakers beat Chicago.
The Lakers moved one-half game ahead of the Utah Jazz and into sole possession of the No. 8 and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
- Thunder 91, Celtics 79: At Oklahoma City, Kevin Durant had 23 points and 10 rebounds, Russell Westbrook scored 15 points and the Thunder beat Boston to stretch their winning streak to five games.
- Magic 99, 76ers 91: At Orlando, Fla., Jameer Nelson had 24 points and 10 assists, and Nik Vucevic added 14 points and 17 rebounds as the Magic held off Philadelphia.

TOYOTA SA has launched the third installment of its Hybrid Synergy Drive (HSD) range in the form of the Yaris HSD, which follows the Prius and Auris HSD models. With manufacturers bent on reducing their carbon footprint, hybrid models are closing the gap towards the ultimate objective of zero emissions.
While full electric vehicles are very much a possibility, our local infrastructure must improve in order to make the technology more feasible. Until then, hybrid technology will be a key player in the realms of greener motoring.
According to Faeez Barnes, product planner at Toyota, more than 4-million hybrids have been sold worldwide, with the US and China accounting for the bulk of that figure, making the company the biggest manufacturer of hybrid vehicles.
So what sets the Yaris HSD model apart from its siblings? Well, for starters you have a much deeper airdam, LED daytime driving lights and rear brake lights, blue hued badging, and hybrid badging on the front flanks and boot. The interior carries on the blue theme with the instrument cluster needles, stitching on the steering wheel and the gear knob all finished in a blue hue. Then you get the touchscreen interface with features that include Bluetooth connectivity and hybrid specific eco functions.
Two trim levels are available in the form of the XS and XR, both kitted out with 15-inch alloy wheels. The XR also features keyless entry and start, a reverse camera and cruise control. Based on the second generation Prius, the 1,5l engine (55kW and 111Nm) with Atkinson's cycle is allied to a more compact electric motor (45kW and 169Nm) that is said to not impede on either the passenger or boot space.
Being the smallest hybrid model in the range, the company says the new compact electric motor sees a 6% reduction in the weight of the hybrid transaxle and an overall weight reduction of 11% over the Auris HSD's system. Combined power is 74kW with fuel consumption claimed at 3,8l /100km while carbon emissions are pegged at only 88g/km.
Driving the front wheels through a CVT (continuously variable transmission), I found the gearbox a lot smoother than some of those available in its counterparts, and with less of the dreaded droning characteristics.
In order to ascertain how economical the vehicle is, we embarked on a 130km economy run where we managed 1,64l /100km (verified by Richard Carstens of Motorsport SA) - is less than half the claimed figure.
Granted, that the figure was achieved with much bleating as it meant constant feathering of the throttle and coasting on the odd downhill, and keeping the engine within the eco mode band. While the number is mighty impressive, it is not a true reflection of its consumption in real world conditions, and I will stick my neck out and say that you are likely to achieve between 4l /100km and 5l /100km, which is still thrifty in anyone's books.
A while back we drove the Honda Jazz Hybrid and found that the average fuel consumption achieved was similar to what we achieved in our then long-term Jazz 1.5 EX, which in my books simply discounted the model from being an alternative to its petrol driven models, which are much cheaper. In contrast, the Yaris HSD achieves what it says on the box, but the cost still means that the technology will remain a preserve for a select few.
There are similarly economical diesel models in the form of the VW Polo 1.6 TDI, which while it may emit a slightly higher carbon emission of 113g/km over the Yaris, it still remains exempt from the 120g/km threshold. In fact, the Polo 1.2 TDI Bluemotion emits 89g/km, which is only 1g higher than the Yaris HSD, and it costs R185300. Also, the fact that the government does not subsidise vehicles that are below the emission threshold, means that hybrids remain relatively more expensive than their equivalent diesel models. Should the government become proactive and advocate for vehicles with the least impact on the environment and have in place the necessary rebates for such, then I feel that more people would buy the hybrids.
Nevertheless, the Yaris HSD certainly ticks all the right boxes as far as fuel and carbon emission standards are concerned and I commend the manufacturer for doing its bit to counter the effects of global warming
Pricing: Yaris HSD XS R223800 Yaris HSD XR R246900

TJC science center to host star party Sept. 22
Published Wednesday, 12th September 2012
The Center for Earth & Space Science Education at Tyler Junior College will host a star party Saturday, Sept. 22.
This free, public event is held in partnership with the Astronomical Society of East Texas and the TJC Society of Physics Students/American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers."We will have telescopes set up outside starting at dusk, and the show will go on no matter the weather," said center director Dr. Tom Hooten.
Hooten said the center will be open to the public for free during the star party, and the live night sky will be projected in the dome theater.
Suited for Space, a traveling Smithsonian exhibit on the development of space suits, is on display through Sunday, Nov. 18.
The center reopened last year after a yearlong renovation that doubled the size of the building and added an 85-seat theater equipped with a 40-foot, tilted dome and Digistar 4, which offers the latest in digital projection technology.

JAKRATA, Indonesia -- The gubernatorial elections in Indonesia on Sept. 20 is getting a lot of attention because of its candidates.
Christian politician Basuki Purnama is running as vice governor in Jakarta, a surprising ticket since Indonesia is the largest Muslim country in the world.
As the election draws closer, reports have emerged that campaigns are intimidating voters to cast their ballots along ethnic and religious lines.
Clerics in many mosques are using their loudspeakers to tell people to vote only for Muslims. And a famous singer campaigning for the incumbent told crowds gathered in a mosque for Ramadan prayers that it was their duty to vote only for Muslims.
The singer, Rhoma, said he did nothing wrong because he was merely quoting a verse from the Koran that says, "Muslims should never choose an infidel to lead them, otherwise they would incur God's wrath."
Purnama is not only Christian, but also ethnic Chinese. He's running for a very important post that can be a stepping stone to the presidency.
Purnama's supporters also appreciate his clean record of local governance, giving free education and health care to the poor.
"I am disappointed with our present leaders because they promised to build roads and made other promises, but when they rule nothing happened," Chinese businessman Franz Winardi said. "I believe Purnama can bring a fresh change."
But it is not only the Chinese who are supporting Purnama. Other political parties whose members are highly educated Muslims convinced him to run in the capital.
Purnama's determination to change people's lives has won him a seat in the House of Representatives. Throughout his political career, he's been known for his honesty and leading the fight against corruption.
"So I become the eye, ear, mouth, and hand of the people," Purnama said. "All things that I know, I write it down. Even receipts, my salary, every expense that I had in or out of town, I always made the report. So the people understand that I'm their employee."
One recent survey claims Indonesia is the most corrupt country in the Asia Pacific. Many Indonesians believe Purnama can change all that.
He said it is his faith in God that molds his convictions.
"The most important thing is what God says. Every human being may fall in sin. The thing is how do you get up?" Purnama said. "We need to speak to our conscience, our conscience is being purified by the word of God."
"My God is Jesus, so I must speak to Him ... speak face to face like a friend to Him," he continued. "I have this kind of mindset: 'Please check my heart.' There's no perfect human ... I am here because of God's grace, not because of my qualities, but because God chose me."
And to the Indonesian people he hopes to serve, Purnama advises them to "love the Lord and then love your neighbor as yourself."
"If you fully understand those laws," he explained, "you'll be a person who loves people and the country."

More Fashion Inspirations – Hats
Last week I shared with you some of my favorite summer hats. Here are more of my favorite shapes and colors.
Once I ran across this striking orange hat at Talbots. I just couldn't say No. I actually wear it a lot, in spite of its being a difficult color: orange. With imagination you can do anything. It looks fabulous with chartreuse green. And if you don't own a pair of chartreuse (or lime) summer flats, then hurry out and buy some. They make life exciting! Magenta pink flats and this orange hat are great together, too.
Likewise my love of this unusual green hat. It is lime green, or chartreuse, depending upon what you like to call it. In summer, lime green is a natural. You'd be surprised how many things you have in your closet that look smashing with a topper of lime green. (Of course, I am afraid of nothing.)
My absolute favorite "classic" hat is a Peter Beaton, which I purchased in Nantucket, and they steamed it to fit my head. If you are a hat aficionada, you can tell the fineness of the material, the fineness of the weave, the absolute wonderfulness of the scale of this hat. There is black trim at the edge of the brim, and a black band and bow. Perfect!
Here is another black and white charmer. This time there is the mixture of black and white AND I get a broad brim. Sometimes it is hard to choose what to wear. Oh, such problems.
If you don't have a royal blue hat in your wardrobe, then what? I just fell in love with this blue hat with the perky polka dot blue and white bow! I found a silk dress that was the exact color of this blue, and I remember wearing it to a presentation to a board of directors. They approved the presentation, so they must not have been able to get over the hat!
This exhuberant polks dot bow just will not quit! If you buy a plain hat, you can add a bow like this. Try it.
Remember the old saying, "The hat makes the man." ? Well, let me tell you, a woman in a hat turns heads! Go for it.

Lately, I've been giving up vices. Cheese, weeknight partying, and gambling have all been easily removed from my day to day life. These were easy. I'd say the most difficult vice to give up has been speeding. Of all the changes I've gone through while growing up, this is probably the least expected.
I haven't become such a prudent driver for safety or legal reasons. I'm skeptical about speed being a danger per se, and I've got no warrants out to keep me from risking an encounter with the FiveOh. I'm just worried that I use too much gasoline. I like to try to be more environmentally friendly than your average Ohioan. I reuse rags instead of paper towels, I reuse the same Styrofoam coffee cup religiously every morning with no intent of ever tossing it, and I cringe for every dollar I spend on gas. Unfortunately, I have to drive to work these days. I've really had to look for ways to reduce my dependence on foreign oil, and the result is that I've been driving 25 miles an hour when that is the posted speed limit, even when everybody else is getting angry. I counted 34 cars passed me with an angry look this past week. There's a sick satisfaction that comes from knowing you've bothered someone who is very clearly hurting the environment by blowing past your car at 35 over the speed limit. Sorry kids, you're ruining Bambi's forest when you drive 90.
While bothering the drivers of Northeast Ohio, it has occurred to me that speed limits are an interesting breed of laws. The main argument against speed limits is that they are totally arbitrary. This is a really great point if you ask me. Roads where I am from in Ohio often don't have speed limit signs, so the applicable law is the state maximum of 65 miles per hour. Many of these roads look like they have been scud bombed, and if there is room for two cars to pass each other, you're lucky. Putting a blanket speed limit on these roads is a great idea if you want to keep people from driving 90 over gravel on turns, but permitting them to drive at 65 on such a death trap is flat out irresponsible. Any law imposing a flat speed limit will have a total lack of attention to specific road conditions at the heart of its passage, at least in Ohio. So why do we have speed limits if they can so problematically miss the point? It seems that the answer is something like "because we do."
There is still hope that we might find a good reason for a specific speed limit! Senator John Warner of Virginia had it spot on last summer when he asked Energy Secretary Sam Bodman to look into a speed at which better efficiency could be expected from the current technology on the road. It wouldn't be the first time that america slows down out of energy concerns either. In 1973, Congress enacted a national speed limit of 55 miles per hour so that the little oil available would go a longer way. This was, at minimum, a real reason to slow down for once. Now that the political climate (and the actual climate for that matter) has changed, You should drive slow for the practical purpose of polluting less.
So if you're an Ohio driver and you're stuck behind some guy driving 35 in a 45 zone, just remember that I'm mostly doing it for Bambi, and only a little bit because you get angry.

Short-sellers tend to cash in their chips when their target stocks plunge downward. Why risk large losses when you have a solid profit on the table, right in front of you? But the most heavily shorted stocks on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) today also happen to be some of its worst recent performers. What gives?
The single most shorted Dow stock right now is aluminum producer Alcoa (NYSE: AA ) , according to the latest short-sales report. 8.9% of its shares have been borrowed and shorted, a 7.5% increase in two weeks.
The second and third names on this unfortunate list are Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT ) and Intel (NASDAQ: INTC ) , with just over and under 4.7% of their float sold short, respectively.
All three of these stocks have lagged their Dow peers significantly over the last year:
That's three of the four worst Dow performers in 12 months. Only Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ ) and its never-ending turnaround attempts squeezes in among them with a 6.5% 52-week drop. And you know what? That's the fourth-most shorted Dow stock anyhow. So the market is consistently betting against the renowned "dogs of the Dow."
Intel and HP are suffering from death-of-the-PC-itis. Both companies play a heavy hand in that fading market. But Intel also runs the table in back-end server systems, not to mention that it hasn't given up on mobile computing quite yet. HP is nonexistent in the tablet, smartphone, and mobile gadgetry scene, and also carries a heavy load of management failures on its shoulders. If anything, I would argue that HP and Intel should switch places on the short-sales list -- and then some. In fact, I like Intel's chances so much that I own the stock nowadays.
Caterpillar and Alcoa have become proxies for the global economy. Their share prices swing wildly with every bit of news that might affect infrastructure projects worldwide, whether it's in America, China, or even Cyprus. A bet against these construction-centric companies is a bet on continued economic weakness. There seems to be plenty of negative sentiment to go around, even as the 2008 crash fades in our rearview mirrors.
So this pairing of high short interest and low stock performance actually seems to be based on the prospects of each individual stock -- not a reverse "dogs of the Dow" strategy. The bets may be misplaced in at least one instance, but somebody out there really believes that these underperforming Dow stocks have a bit further to fall.
When it comes to dominating markets, it doesn't get much better than Intel's position in the PC microprocessor arena. However, that market is maturing, and Intel finds itself in a precarious situation longer term if it doesn't find new avenues for growth. In this premium research report on Intel, a Motley Fool analyst runs through all of the key topics investors should understand about the chip giant. Click here now to learn more.

Training for the Balkins at CMTC
by Major Kathleen A. Phillips
Since 1993, the Combat Maneuver Training Center (CMTC) at Hohenfels, Germany, has trained U.S. and Allied units for stability and support operations (SASO). With the declaration of U.S. participation in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) mission in the Former Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY)--Operations JOINT ENDEAVOR and JOINT GUARD--the CMTC has focused SASO training specifically on requirements for the Balkan region. The intelligence community in Europe has helped CMTC to develop the proper operational environment and training scenarios. CMTC conducts two types of training on a regular basis: individual replacement training (IRT) and unit mission rehearsals, known as Mountain Eagle exercises.Individual Replacement Training
IRT began as a commander in chief-directed, theater-specific training program for every individual--every soldier, sailor, airman, marine, and civilian deploying to the FRY. CMTC looked at the implicit hazards in the mission and developed a three-day training program to prepare individuals for the environment into which they will deploy. The terrain and weather at CMTC, located in southern Bavaria, are very much like what they will experience in Bosnia, Hungary, or Croatia. Additionally, all students wear body armor, Kevlar, and load-bearing equipment and carry weapons during training to prepare them for the highest force protection posture they will experience. Finally, the training exposes students to the hazards--environmental and hostile forces--associated with the mission and gives them the fieldcraft and force protection skills necessary to counter those hazards.
Each training cycle begins with a mine detonation to get the students' attention. As they watch the mine catapult a vehicle into the air, they quickly gain an appreciation for the violently destructive capability of mines they may face. The training continues with two days of classroom instruction to introduce the students to the theater, explain the potential hazards, and demonstrate the skills with as much hands-on training as possible. The classes include the blocks of instruction shown in Figure 1.
The last day of IRT consists of two situational training exercises that allow students to apply their classroom training as they--
- Deal with reporters.
- Search vehicles and personnel at a checkpoint.
- Provide local security.
- Encounter mines or booby traps.
- React to snipers, ambushes, or artillery.
The situations students encounter are similar to those that some individuals serving in Bosnia have experienced. Or they are the situations representing worse-case scenarios that the students must be prepared to face.
CMTC has trained more than 26,000 students since the fall of 1995. Individuals do not become experts in SASO or the Balkan region as a result of their training at CMTC. However, IRT students depart CMTC situationally aware of the risks associated with Operation JOINT GUARD and trained to minimize those risks.
Mission Rehearsals

While the focus of IRT is on the individual, Mountain Eagle exercises focus on training units for the operations they will conduct as part of the NATO mission in the FRY. CMTC conducted the first Mountain Eagle mission rehearsal in the summer of 1995 and has conducted four more since, each building on the experiences and lessons learned from units that have served in Bosnia, Croatia, and Hungary.
CMTC replicates the operational environment into which a unit will deploy by defining its area of operations and by providing a similar laydown in the CMTC maneuver box. CMTC has two base camps and five towns in the box to help create a realistic model environment. Additionally, units have transformed sections of Camp Albertshof--where training units typically set up administrative operations during their rotations--into models of the base camps in and around the Tuzla Valley. CMTC creates the interentity boundary line, zone of separation, and mine threat that the unit is likely to experience. Additionally, CMTC's opposing force (OPFOR, 1-4 Infantry) and professional "civilians on the battlefield" (COBs) play the roles of--
- Officers of the entities' armed forces.
- Mayors and residents of various towns around U.S. base camps.
- Representatives of international organizations working in Bosnia.
- International media.
All of this sets the conditions for a successful rehearsal of a unit's operational tempo and contingency missions.
The heart of a Mountain Eagle is the rehearsing of the various missions that a unit will conduct, including those that represent worst-case events. Units conduct a transition of authority (TOA) with role players representing the departing unit to gain a full understanding of their sector and the issues involved. The OPFOR and COB help surface local issues as soon as a unit occupies its base camp. The unit then conducts routine peace support operations, such as patrols and inspections of weapons storage sites, to reinforce application of the Rules of Engagement, standard operating procedures, and Task Force Eagle (TFE) policies and procedures. Soldiers practice patience and refine their negotiation and problem-solving skills. Finally, CMTC presents the unit with certain problem sets that force soldiers to rehearse contingency plans and combat skills. These problem sets are drawn from events that have actually happened in Bosnia or from those that TFE leaders believe could happen as a result of resettlement problems, increased ethnic tensions, challenges at a weapons storage site, or detention of an indicted war criminal.Conclusion
CMTC continues to maintain contact with G2s and S2s who have experience in Operations JOINT ENDEAVOR and JOINT GUARD to stay abreast of the operational environment and threat assessments. CMTC also sends its observer/controllers to visit units in Bosnia and bring back lessons learned, updated assessments, specific TFE products, and recommendations to improve both the individual and the unit training.

HTC gave up on a big-screen Windows Phone for the lack of Full HD display support
33 Comments
1. wendygarett (unregistered)
I personally think the aspect ratio on L920 is better, but the wp8x is nice too...
To me, 4.5 inch on lumia 920 is the optimal size I can operate on one hand lol
2. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Agree...There's so much you can do without a full HD display...
That's what phones have been doing before the DNA.
3. wendygarett (unregistered)
Off topic : do you own lumia 920? If so how does it feels? Coz I thinking of wanna own one as my 1st wp8... Is it good?
7. Vater2451 (Posts: 7; Member since: 06 Aug 2012)
dont own either but heavily debated the 920 and 8x before I got my nexus 4.
The 920 is nothing special in the hand.... honestly its chunky feeling. But I seriously almost bought an 8x just because of how great it felt in my hand but a WP thats not a Nokia isnt as competitive.....
9. redmd (Posts: 1269; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
prepare to be thumbed down lol but seriously the 8X feels better in the hand than 920.
11. wendygarett (unregistered)
I also consider of getting wp8x because of the price... HTC know how to attract new user from outside Windows tho...
But now this Nathan guy starts to convey me, when he keeps sayin that L920 is way better than 8x... I trust him, but I need more feedback...
14. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Lol, i'm convincing you??? Really??? Haha...well that's some news!
Yes, L920 is better than 8X in terms of the features inside it! But note this, i never said that it fells better in the hand than the 8X or any other phone!
16. dampv (Posts: 5; Member since: 06 Oct 2012)
I agreed with you, no matter how a phone is better in hand, what matters most for majority of consumer is features and specs.
18. wendygarett (unregistered)
You haven't answered my question... Did you own one? Lol... Coz I wanna your feedback tho :)
13. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Nope, don't have one in my hand Wendy, but i'm not talking about L920 here, i'm talking about displays.
20. wendygarett (unregistered)
Oops sorry about my previous comment lol...
Guess I have to find another feedback...
Sigh... I trusted you, but your avatar is a lie :(
22. ahhxd717 (Posts: 332; Member since: 08 Dec 2011)
Well my bf has had a Lumia 920 for a few weeks so ive used it a bit and its really not that bad in the hand. Maybe its more my taste; I like slightly heavier phones because I like the feeling substance but I can see how it might be too heavy/bulky for some when compared to lighter phones. But overall I think it fits nicely and is easy to handle. Definitely a fast phone, and is very enjoyable to use. However, my phone is a GNex on 4.2.1 so some of the customizations/power features are lacking but I'm not too much into all that. Im really liking WP8. Definitely a good phone and I'd seriously think of getting it, especially if coming from an iPhone, like my bf.
23. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
What??? And you have a Pokemon???? Tell me your avatar is not lying!!
24. danny_a2005 (Posts: 165; Member since: 06 Oct 2011)
you, gurl, are so funny
21. Vinayakn73 (Posts: 191; Member since: 05 Oct 2011)
if nokias 920 has android instead of box os (windows Phone) that sure gonna be my next phone. but with that wp a big no no
4. No_Nonsense (Posts: 826; Member since: 17 Aug 2012)
PA, goes up to 720 horizontal pixels is theoretically incorrect. It supports 768 horizontal pixels.
5. bayhuy (Posts: 320; Member since: 23 Jun 2011)
Stupid Microsoft...they will add 1080p support, but too late. They missed their chance to be the first...always playing catch-up
17. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Yo, when was 720p never enough for your eyes to distinguish texts????
25. wassup (Posts: 565; Member since: 23 Jun 2011)
it was, but more pixels= better details.. soo yeah, i would prefer the 1080p screen, maybe after 2 years we'll have 4K screen on the SVI, we'll see.
26. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
I'm not against 1080p displays, but talking down resolutions below it is not so wise either.
The phone is not 5 inch so 720p is quite enough...that's what i'm saying!
27. wassup (Posts: 565; Member since: 23 Jun 2011)
i know, my S3 is 720p and i like it more than any other screen I've seen, I'm just saying that MS should have foreseen this and should have added HD support to WP8
29. dicemoney (Posts: 58; Member since: 28 Mar 2011)
Enough is not enough in technology world if everybody was thinking like you we would be still using flip phone with no camera because that was enough then.
33. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3792; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Again, i'm talking about displays BELOW 5 inch...in case you missed it.
6. jove39 (Posts: 1859; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
MS may add support for full HD displays in upcoming service pack update...for now...just have to live with 720p.
8. Vater2451 (Posts: 7; Member since: 06 Aug 2012)
disapointed..... had a titan 2 for a while and was really looking forward to a titan 3..... 1080 screens are over rated...... Id take a bigger battery over higher resolution any day... OEM's should listen to their customers more and the competition less

12. Thephonegeek (Posts: 118; Member since: 22 Nov 2012)
This makes me made. People buys phones judging by it's specs and hardware. If you can do better you will win. If manufacturers made Quad core, 2GB Ram, 13mp camera windows phones they would've sold well. I know wp performs well with a dual core chip and 1GB Ram but this doesn't attract people. That's why they choose Droid DNA and Note 2. And more capable hardware also make phones futureproof.
And Nokia's stupidity relying on a single closed source operating system is definitely getting them out of the business. Nokia is dying because of MS and elop. Unless they will switch to android they will be dying slowly and slowly.
15. uneedhelp (Posts: 19; Member since: 04 Nov 2012)
8x and 920 are two of the best phones out
19. uneedhelp (Posts: 19; Member since: 04 Nov 2012)
There is only 1 phone currently in the u.s supporting 1080p (DNA) so at this time most of ur argument is irrelevant.
28. lubba (Posts: 1313; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
That's too bad. I supported HTC and their WP efforts but stuff like this makes me wanna say its time for MS to invest heavily in Nokia and their surface phone and leave HTC to struggle with Android. If I could I would ask HTC, what is the resolution on the Gnote 2?
30. MorePhonesThanNeeded (Posts: 645; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
Did you read the article? HTC wanted to use the DNA chassis for a WP but MS dropped the ball and WP8 only goes up to 720p, so what's the point of using the 1080p screen for WP8 if it's wasted and never does 1080p? They have to use their investments wisely and WP sporting a 1080p screen would have been a waste of resources that could be used on an OS that takes advantage of 1080p capability of the screen. HTC will have to make new orders of 720p 5" screens for WP8 which is probably what they didn't want to do.
Means new deals and more talks and more money that they might not get back because WP8 isn't actually flying off shelves like Android devices are and the DNA is enjoying some success being the first 1080p Android device on a major network.
Classic case of MS not thinking forward, why would you build WP8 without thinking about 1080p as a supportable resolution? This shows that they build too many OS's. Windows RT, Windows PRO, WP8, Windows 8...goodness do any of these OS share any kind of unity? This is what makes Google's Android a better OS, it's scalability. Support for low resolution and high resolution and fits on phones, smartphones, tablets and I can bet they are aiming for desktops. I am about to actually try out the chrome book because I really want to try out the OS and see if it has any legs at all. But my smartphone is much better device than my desktop PC, searches are quick and easy and you can find relevant information because of the way Google built the search, so many options to help make the search easier. Anyone who has used search on a Windows desktop can tell you how crazy things can get. I'm itching for Android on a desktop, the search and the ease of use have me sold. Here's hoping that Google at least gives it a shot, tired of just having Windows to look at and that stuff works as long as they want it to, then it starts having issues for no reason when a new version is on it's way out. XP and Vista user here, screw anything newer just seem to come with too many issues and eats up too much HD space for what it does. RAM hog.

HTC wanted to do a 1080 screen for a WP; MS, WP doesnt support it yet.
Blame MS, WP.....not HTC.
31. Sailingmaster (Posts: 24; Member since: 26 Feb 2012)
I don't blame HTC at all. They've been making Windows phones for a long time. And despite Microsoft's claims to the contrary, HTC is definitely getting the short end of the stick when it comes to support from Microsoft.
With all the privileged support and money that Microsoft has been funneling into Nokia, and looking at the WP sales numbers, I think the only reason that Microsoft didn't just buy out Nokia and rename it something exciting like Microsoft Mobility, was to hopefully capitalize on European brand loyalty to Nokia.

What If the Government Just Prints Money?
Scott T. Fullwiler
Wartburg College; Bard College - The Levy Economics Institute
November 20, 2009
This post considers whether a given deficit resulting in more reserves in circulation and fewer bonds held by the non-government sector raises the likelihood of spiraling inflation, as most interpretations of the government budget constraint (GBC) assume. The approach here recognizes the importance of understanding the balance sheet implications of both of these options that are central to MMT. While most economists typically assume a supply and demand relationship, as in the hypothesized loanable funds market, and then build models accordingly, such an approach can miss important relationships in the real world. In particular, any transaction in a capitalist economy results in changes in the agents' financial statements; if the hypothesized supply and demand relations are not consistent with the actual changes occurring within the financial statements of the relevant agents, then the hypothesized model is irrelevant. In a modern money regime such as ours in which there is a sovereign currency issuer operating under flexible exchange rates, "monetization" versus "financing" as characterized both in the GBC and in the hypothesized loanable funds market fall into this category.

Protests and pot banging against Cristina Fernandez administration in Buenos Aires
Protesters gathered around Buenos Aires obelisk and other neighbourhoods of Buenos Aires City to participate in a new protest against the administration of Argentine president Cristina Fernández, forty eight hours ahead of primary elections.
"An end to corruption", "enough of lies and insecurity" were some of the banners carried by protestors who also shouted out names of President Cristina Fernandez administration officials allegedly involved in rampant corruption cases.
For the occasion, civil and political groups installed a big screen in front of the Colon Theatre in downtown Buenos Aires, while carrying signs criticizing Vice President Amado Boudou and Fernández de Kirchner son, Máximo, head of a youth militants group 'La Campora' allegedly financed by the government.
The concentration was not as numerous as that of last 18 April when hundreds of thousands turned out in Argentina's main cities and towns for a similar protest.
This time however there was some controversy because of the two day mourning decreed to honour the victims of a building that collapsed, following a major gas leak, killing at least 13 and injuring dozens, while special rescue teams search among the rubble for the missing.
But organizers of '8A' said they would go ahead anyway, because it's a couple of days ahead of Sunday's primary mandatory elections to decide on candidates for the coming October mid-term elections when half the lower house (127) and a third of the Senate seats (24) will be renewed.
As in previous occasions the concentration with banners and pot-banging were organized spontaneously through the social networks with no intervention of political parties and with a very clear instruction: strictly a-political.
Mariana Torres who identified herself as one of the organizers admitted the march attracted less people than in previous occasions, but "the complaints are the same from other protests: corruption, insecurity, lies and inflation".
When asked about the possibility of cancelling the marches, after the Rosario tragedy where 13 people died, she said: "We decided to continue because the Government tried to make a political use of the tragedy, and even people from Rosario told us to carry on".
But most political parties and movements that are participating on Sunday's primaries decided to suspend their campaign closing rallies on Thursday evening to abide the national mourning.
Nevertheless it must be added that contrary to last April when people by the thousands turned out in major cities and towns, this time it was concentrated in Buenos Aires City and some metropolitan areas. Buenos Aires City traditionally has been a stronghold of the opposition to the hegemonic Peronist movement that has dominated Argentine politics for the last six decades.

Ben Boone
Ben Boone '07 M.Ed. '09 was the "Toasted By Admission" award recipient for July 2011.
Boone, who works for the dean of students office, specifically focusing on transfer-student initiatives, has liaised with the admission office for a number of years.
Boone was nominated by Associate Dean of Admission Kim Van Deusen, and selected by a vote of the undergraduate admission staff. In her nomination of Boone, Van Deusen told the admission staff, "Ben Boone has been a tremendous asset to the Office of Admission and to transfer students this year. In tandem with our office, he has helped William & Mary create a smooth transition for entering spring and fall transfers. Ben helped with our five prospective transfer days throughout the year by moderating the student/faculty panel and being available for questions from prospective students and families."
"In addition, Ben assisted with our day for admitted transfer students which is a day-long program held on a Saturday. Ben's presence didn't just help me and my sanity during these programs, but it allowed transfer students to meet Ben early in the process so they already had a point of contact at the college when they joined the Tribe. With Ben's help, I was able to create a warm, welcoming vibe for the prospective and enrolling transfer students. Thanks, Ben. You rock!"
To celebrate Boone's achievement and contributions to the admission office, he was treated by its staff to an after-work gathering at Berrett's in late July. There he was awarded the traditional honorary admission and complimentary admit pack that is bestowed upon all "Toasted by Admission" winner (it mirrors the acceptance letter and mailing sent to all newly admitted students).
Boone is the first Toasted by Admission nominee to have been granted both actual and honorary admission (first as a early decision applicant in 2002, again as an M.Ed. candidate in 2007 and finally as the "Toasted by Admission" winner in July 2011 ), so he is the first to receive both actual and honorary admission to the College (Jesse Windley '97 received the "Toasted by Admission" award in March 2011 before the honorary admission status was conferred with the award).
