To all South Carolina residents: Now is the time to contact your state representatives to let them know we do not want to increase daily tonnage of trash and garbage that can be incinerated in our state.
This could open the door for a great deal more trash to be imported from other states, both near and far.
There is a reason we limited garbage that can be burned in our state, but Sen. Creighton Coleman is about to introduce legislation that will increase it from 600 tons to 1,600 tons a day, and he is doing it in the name of green energy.
Indian Land Middle School has been in the limelight a lot lately. The school stepped into the national spotlight last month when it was named a National School to Watch, an honor given to high-performing middle schools.
ILMS is one of two schools in the state to win the honor this year and one of just six in the state to ever receive it.
Fewer than 350 schools in the nation have received the designation since its inception in 1999.
My husband has been in the hospital four times since December. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Springs Memorial Hospital for going the extra mile to make sure he had the best of care.
First, we would like to thank Lancaster County EMS for its prompt and wonderful service. We would like to thank the doctors for the knowledge and their extra effort to diagnose and treat my husband.
Editor's note: The following is See Lancaster's response to Gil Small's Feb. 24 letter, "Santa Train event was a disappointment."
Dear Gil, Nancy and Anne:
On behalf of the Santa Express and the city of Lancaster, I want to thank you for your letter and comments. Please note that we work hard each year to provide an exciting and memorable experience for our fine city and community.
Winning a state championship is special. Winning two state championships is extra special.
That's just what happened at the Class A-AA state wrestling tournament in Rock Hill late last month.
Buford High School senior 130-pounder Rashad Cunningham capped a 46-1 mat season, winning the state title in his weight class.
Indian Land's Trevor Jones, in the 140-pound weight class, did the same as he captured the state crown.
Both wrestlers achieved the ultimate goal for a high school wrestler in exciting fashion.
A local developer got his way with the city of Lancaster last week. Just as area residents of Arrowood Estates were in an uproar about the annexation of four neighboring properties and the slim reality of their own annexation, a very real deal was quietly completed for a property across town.
Jobs. Jobs. Jobs. That's the hot topic of discussion. Over the past 10 years, we have lost close to 10,000 jobs with the closing of Springs Industries. This has caused great hardship on the local citizens as they scramble to find a replacement for their lost income.
The Lancaster County Economic Development Corp., Lancaster County Council, the city of Lancaster and all of the employment agencies have been working overtime to attract new industries to our county. This is not an easy task, but we continue to go after all those that show an interest in moving here.
A recent front page article said teachers are going to have take one day off with no pay. It is wrong to furlough school teachers for even one day. School teachers have committed their working careers to teaching in public schools. Many of them could have gone into better-paying jobs, but they have chosen to teach the young people in our schools.

Sex and Politics, à la Caesar and Cleopatra
By ANTHONY TOMMASINI [NY Times, 9 April 2007]
The Metropolitan Opera has a big impediment to producing Handel operas: its enormous auditorium. Both "Rodelinda," which the Met first mounted in 2004 starring Renée Fleming, and "Giulio Cesare," which opened on Friday in a revival of a staging by John Copley introduced in 1988, were originally presented by Handel in the King's Theater in London, which seated just 850. In principle the Met's 3,700-seat house is way too big for early-18th-century opera. Some of the most ravishing moments in "Giulio Cesare" are pensively lyrical arias accompanied by only a small complement of continuo instruments.

A major thoroughfare for commerce and transportation arrived in Mount Jackson in 1830. The Valley Turnpike, also known as Route 11, formed the historic base for today's Interstate 81. Today local, national and international businesses call Mount Jackson home.
These highways have brought business and traffic and people through Mount Jackson for decades. Residents built churches, homes and businesses that now showcase striking examples of early American architectural styles: Victorian, Gothic, American Foursquare, Colonial Revival and more. The National Register of Historic Places added the Town of Mount Jackson Historic District to its register in 1993, thanks to hours of research and effort by Mrs. Betty Burke and the Garden Club.

From here:
Throughout the '90s, France and Russia badgered the United States and Britain to increase Iraqi oil production. President Bill Clinton and Prime Minister Tony Blair fought them at each step, but then reluctantly gave way. First Iraq was allowed to sell 500,000 barrels daily. Then, on Franco-Russian insistence, it was raised to 1 million, then to 2 million and, finally, to 3 million barrels a day.
Each time, America and Britain — the nations now accused of coveting Iraqi oil — resisted the increases in Iraqi production and urged tighter controls over the program. Each time, the French and the Russians prattled on about the rights of Iraqi sovereignty and the need to feed the children.
Now we know why the French and Russians were so insistent. Iraqi government documents (leaked to the Baghdad newspaper Al Mada) list at least 270 individuals and entities who got vouchers allowing them to sell Iraqi oil — and to keep much of the money. These vouchers, and the promise of instant great wealth they carried with them, bought vital support in the United Nations to let Saddam stay in power.
The list of those receiving these bribes includes France's former French Interior Minister Charles Pasqua (who's a leader of Chirac's party) and Patrick Maugein, the head of the French Oil firm Soco International. France's former UN ambassador, Jean-Bernard Merimee, got vouchers to sell 11 million barrels.
From here:
One of the next big chapters in the United Nations oil-for-food scandal will involve the family of the secretary-general, Kofi Annan, whose son turns out to have been receiving payments as recently as early this year from a key contractor in the oil-for-food program.
The secretary-general's son, Kojo Annan, was previously reported to have worked for a Swiss-based company called Cotecna Inspection Services SA, which from 1998-2003 held a lucrative contract with the U.N. to monitor goods arriving in Saddam Hussein's Iraq under the oil-for-food program. But investigators are now looking into new information suggesting that the younger Annan received far more money over a much longer period, even after his compensation from Cotecna had reportedly ended.
The importance of this story involves not only undisclosed conflicts of interest, but the question of the role of the secretary-general himself, at a time when talk is starting to be heard around the U.N. that it is time for him to resign, and the staff labor union is in open rebellion against "senior management."[…]
The younger Annan stopped working for Cotecna in late 1998, but it now turns out that he continued to receive money from Cotecna not only through 1999, as recently reported, but right up until February of this year. The timing coincides with the entire duration of Cotecna's work for the U.N. oil-for-food program. It now appears the payments to the younger Annan ended three months after the U.N., in November, 2003, closed out its role in oil-for-food and handed over the remains of the program to the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad.[…]
Labeled as compensation for Kojo Annan's agreeing not to compete with Cotecna's business in West Africa, the post-employment payments were in the amount of $2,500 per month, according to another source with access to the documents. If the payments were continuous over the slightly more than five-year period involved, that would have totaled more than $150,000.[…]
The pattern in this scandal has been that Secretary-General Annan, until confronted by the press, has either failed to spot or failed to disclose timely information about Cotecna's paychecks for his son. The first bout came back in early 1999, two years into Kofi Annan's watch as secretary-general. Cotecna had just won the U.N. oil-for-food contract, replacing a British firm, Lloyd's Register. News broke January 24, 1999, in the Sunday Telegraph, that Kojo Annan had worked for Cotecna. The U.N. produced an internal report, shown this year to the New York Times, but never publicly released, which found no wrongdoing, but evidently failed to note that Kojo Annan was still receiving payments from Cotecna.
About that same time, in February 1999, a U.N. spokesman, John Mills, told the press that Secretary-General Annan had had no knowledge of Cotecna being hired by the U.N., that Cotecna's bid for the job was the lowest "by a significant margin," and that, "This contract was treated at every stage as a routine commercial matter and in line with the rules and regulations of the United Nations" – a statement later contradicted by one of the U.N.'s own secret internal audits, which leaked this past spring.
In March of this year, with the U.N. oil-for-food scandal by then on the boil, the U.N. was questioned again by the press about Kojo Annan's relations with Cotecna. The answer at that stage from the secretary-general's office was that the younger Annan had worked on Cotecna's staff from December 1995 through February 1998, and a few weeks later became a consultant for Cotecna, resigning in early December of 1998, about three weeks before Cotecna won the U.N. contract. This was offered by Secretary-General Annan's office as evidence that the younger Annan had severed his ties with Cotecna before the company got the U.N. job. A source familiar with the documents now says that Kojo's consultancy with Cotecna expired the same day the company got the U.N. contract, December 31, 1998.
Outside investigations in recent months have added to the timeline, raising yet more questions. In September of this year, The Wall Street Journal reported that even after Kojo Annan's Cotecna consultancy ended in 1998,he continued to receive payments from Cotecna through the end of 1999, as well as having use over that same period of a company credit card. This report is confirmed by a letter, seen by this reporter, written January 11, 1999, by Cotecna CEO Robert Massey, beginning "Dear Mr. Annan" and outlining the terms of a $2,500 per month "compensatory indemnity" in return for Kojo Annan's agreement to "refrain from any similar consultancy or employment."
Now comes this latest information that Kojo Annan continued to receive payments until February 26 of this year – more than five years longer than the U.N. initially implied, four years longer than the U.N. confirmed to the press this September, and for the entire duration of Cotecna's U.N. oil-for-food contracts.
So far, the secretary-general has refused requests from Congress for inter views with U.N. staff, or access to the U.N.'s 55 internal audits of the oil-for food program. One of those internal audits, which leaked this past May, noted serious irregularities with the U.N.'s handling of the Cotecna contract, including an "inappropriate" upward revision of Cotecna's lowball $4.87 million bid, just four days after Cotecna and the U.N. signed the deal.
At every turn, the saga of the secretary-general's family ties to Cotecna raises questions about Kofi Annan's handling of potential conflicts of interest. Even if Mr. Annan cannot be held responsible for the decisions of his son, his job does entail responsibility for the actions of the U.N. Secretariat. As the oil-for-food scandal has unfolded, it has become clear that U.N. secrecy and lack of accountability evolved, in effect, into complicity with Saddam's scams and influence-buying. By now, between congressional and other investigations, there are allegations that Saddam, on Mr. Annan's watch, under U.N. sanctions and oil-for-food supervision, scammed and smuggled some $17.3 billion in oil money meant for relief, using some of that money to fund terrorism, import weapons, and buy influence with Security Council members France, Russia, and China.
From here:
Russia is refusing to provide witnesses or information to the independent investigation into alleged corruption in the multibillion-dollar U.N. oil-for-food program in Iraq, an official close to the investigation said Wednesday.[…]
The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Russian diplomats "dug in their heels" during a meeting in Moscow this week with members of the independent inquiry.
Under the program, Russian companies were major recipients of contracts from Saddam Hussein's government for the sale of Iraqi oil and the supply of humanitarian goods to Iraq.
Launched in December 1996 to help Iraqis cope with U.N. sanctions imposed after Saddam's 1990 invasion of Kuwait, the program allowed the former Iraqi regime to sell unlimited quantities of oil provided the money went primarily to buy humanitarian goods and pay reparations to victims of the 1991 Gulf War. Saddam's government decided on the goods it wanted, who should provide them, and who could buy Iraqi oil – but the U.N. committee overseeing sanctions monitored the contracts.[…]
A report by top U.S. arms inspector Charles Duelfer, released last month, alleged that Saddam issued secret vouchers for purchase of oil to an array of officials and political figures from various countries, dominated by Russia, France and China. That oil could then be resold at a profit.
Saddam allegedly issued the vouchers with the aim of currying favor among U.N. Security Council members.
U.S. Congressional investigators on Monday estimated that Saddam had raised more than $21.3 billion in illegal revenue, using the oil-for-food program and other schemes, like the illegal smuggling of oil.
In Russia, the recipients allegedly included the presidential administration's office, top oil companies Yukos and Lukoil, and ultranationalist lawmaker Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the report said.
At a news conference last month, Volcker said his investigators had received good cooperation from the U.S. and Iraqi governments, and a promise of cooperation from France.
But he said there had been "a little resistance here and there," citing the French bank BNP Paribas, where the oil-for-food program had its account, and the American accounting firm Ernst & Young which was hired by the Iraqi Board of Supreme Audit to review more than 20,000 files from Saddam's regime related to the oil-for-food program.
From here:
China illegally supplied Saddam Hussein's regime with missile technology and other weaponry and was a major beneficiary of the U.N. oil-for-food program, according to a CIA report.
The report by the Iraq Survey Group also stated that China, along with France and Russia, was bribed by Saddam with oil sales and weapons deals into working to end U.N. sanctions.
One sale took place in 2001 and involved an intelligence officer in Beijing, Abd al-Wahab, who bought 10 to 20 gyroscopes and 20 accelerometers from a Chinese firm that was not identified by name. The equipment was to be used in Iraq's Al-Samud missile program, said a former high-ranking official of Iraq's Military Industrialization Commission, which was in charge of arms procurement.
China was the third-largest recipient of oil vouchers from Saddam's regime, the report said. Russia and France were the two largest.
The Iraqi government used the voucher system to siphon off $11 billion through contracting kickbacks and other corruption in the $64 billion humanitarian program, which operated from 1996 to 2003. The program was designed to get food and medicine to the Iraqi people, despite international sanctions.
China also supplied rocket guidance software to the Iraqi Atomic Energy Commission in 2002 that was labeled "children's software" to mask its military nature, the report said.[…]
Iraq also was in the process of buying chemicals and materials for liquid-fuel missiles from Chinese and Indian companies. The sale may have been stopped by the U.S. military action that began in March 2003, the report said.
In light of all the disgusting details of corruption now coming out about the UN, as well as UNSC veto-holding nations like France, Russia, and Red China, does anyone seriously have any faith in this international institution anymore?
The American taxpayer provides something like 30% of the funding for the United Nations. This is, by far, the largest single "fee" any country is charged for membership in the UN.
And what do we get out of our investment of untold billions of dollars? We get bribery, corruption, and rampant anti-Americanism.
It would probably too provocative a move to simply "unilaterally" leave the UN. But this option should not be left off the table.
Even the threat of leaving might get these arrogant, sneering diplomats to clean up their act. Maybe.
And if nothing else does the trick, it could be worth the try…
Desperate times call for desperate measures. The US played a vital role in creating the UN. And we can play a major role in destroying it as well, if need be…Powered by Sidelines

The Mac OS is one of the most secure computer operating systems around. By default, the OS is installed so that it's nigh even impossible for someone to break into your computer over a network or the internet. But if they actually have your computer in their sneaky little hands, that's a different story. The Security & Privacy system preferences help you maintain your Mac's security when someone is using it. You can additionally configure what internet services you will and won't allow as well as control applications that ask for your Mac's location. Let's take a look now.
Go to System Preferences and Security & Privacy. now by default this system preference is locked and for a good reason, because well, it controls your security preferences. So you need to click on it and then enter an administrator's name and password, and click unlock. So this General tab is for protecting your Mac from people who have physical access to it, those who can sit down at your computer when you're not there and do things. Now here are the important ones. You can require a password immediately after the computer goes to sleep or you've had a screensaver kick in.
I referred to this when I was talking about screensavers. That can be Immediate, 5 seconds, a minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, an hour or 4 hours for example. This can be useful if you've set up a hot corner for a screensaver, so you drag your cursor down to the corner, the screensaver kicks in, and then you can walk away from your computer. If somebody else were to sit down at your computer and try to get into it, the screensaver would be on, they try to get in, and then they would be queued for a password to get into the computer. I'm going to turn that off for now.
Another important feature is Disable automatic login. Let's suppose that you have this unchecked. Now, I've a laptop here. I'll leave it alone. Somebody comes in and they lift up that lid and the computer comes on, then they can automatically log in if I have that option set in Users and Groups. That's not such a great idea if your Mac is out there in the public. So it's a good idea to leave this on, so that if you've logged out, nobody can automatically get into your computer without having a password to do that.
You notice at the very beginning of this, I had to click this lock icon and enter an administrator's password and that's what this option is here, Require an administrator password to access system preferences with lock icons. This system preference is different in that by default it asks for that, but other system preferences, if you turn this on, they will all ask you to enter a password. You can log out after a certain number of minutes. So again, step away from your computer and five minutes after, it will log you out and as long as you can't automatically log back in, a person needs to know the password.
You can show a message when the screen is locked, letting people know that you're very serious about security. This last option, Automatically update safe downloads list, there are very, very few problems with viruses and malware and Trojan horses on the Mac. However, recently there have been a few Trojan horses that have appeared. These are files that you download from the Internet that appear to be okay, you run them, and then they perform in some way that you don't expect and some of that is often bad where it will even steal a password for example.
Apple keeps a list of websites and files that can be harmful, and it will automatically update that list. This is a good option to keep enabled so that when you go to a website that has some of this stuff, you'll be warned about it. FileVault is a way of encrypting the data that's on your Mac. This could be a really good idea for a laptop because you're traveling somewhere, you've left your laptop in the bus station, somebody picks it up. If they can get into your computer, they can also get into your data. However, if you turn on FileVault, all your stuff is encrypted, so you have to have a couple of passwords to get in there.
You can't get to it in some other way because this stuff has been turned into a format that can't be easily read. Firewall is off by default. What the Firewall does is it prevents certain ports from being open on your Mac, and a port is an avenue to the internet. So by default common ports are open so that you can get onto the World Wide Web for example through your browser. But there are other ports that are closed. You can also turn on the Firewall and when you do that then you can configure certain applications.
As we see from this dialog, we can deny that connection, or we can allow it. I'm going to turn this off, so I don't keep getting these things. Worth noting is that Lion's Firewall is really broad. There is not a lot that you can tweak here. If you want to do more tweaking, you can using a third-party tool. One that I use is called NoobProof and this is from Hanynet. It's a free tool. What it does is it gives you a long list of the ports that you can open and close. It's called NoobProof for newbie because it really is fairly easy to operate.
If you're really concerned about using a firewall with your Mac, I suggest that you install this and give it a try. Then there is the Privacy tab. On the left side, it says, You can help Apple improve its product and user support by having your Mac automatically send Apple information. If you want to do this, if you want to be a good person, go ahead and enable this checkbox and every so often when you do something on your Mac it may send some anonymized information to Apple that will help them. Generally, I'm kind of a private person, so I don't enable options like this.
I figured the company can figure it out on its own without my help, so I leave this unchecked. On the right side you're going to see an option about location services. There are certain applications that will ask permission to use your location in their operation. So for example, maybe in a maps application of some kind, if you're looking for directions or a local services application. It will ask if it can use your location data. When it does so, it will add the application to this list of applications here.
At that point, you can select one and you can turn that off. So after a while, you say, yes, it's perfectly fine for this restaurant application to tell me where I can find local restaurants but I don't want to have that location data sent to that website any longer, and you can turn it off. And as it tells you at the bottom, these are applications that have asked for your location in the last 24 hours. This is another feature that's been added with Lion. And that's Security & Privacy on the Mac.

Gary Oldman Reveals He Was Approached for 'Star Wars Episode 7'
Gary Oldman is eyed for "Star Wars Episode 7", and the news came from the "Lawless" actor himself. In an interview with Sky Movies in an effort to promote his soon-to-be-released movie "RoboCop", he spills that he did get approached for a role in the J.J. Abrams film.
"They've called. You know, I'm more cynical about it now. I'll believe it when I'm on the plane home. The deal isn't done, but yeah, they've inquired," he reveals, before pointing out that he's no stranger to big franchises, "I mean 'Planet of the Apes', 'Harry Potter', 'Batman', and 'Star Wars'... bloody hell!"
Years ago when George Lucas developed "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith", Oldman was linked to voice General Grievous. He, however, dropped out of the project to avoid violating Screen Actors Guild's rules because the movie was made outside of the union of which he's a member.
"Gary was excited and looking forward to working on the film. The snag is that the movie is being made without members of the Screen Actor's Guild," his rep said back then. "It means Gary would have been working illegally overseas. Out of respect and solidarity with the other members, he could not and would not consider violating the rules of his union."
Zac Efron, Michael B. Jordan, and Saoirse Ronan also said they were eying for roles in the much-anticipated film, but Ronan later said she didn't get the part. Eventually, "Breaking Bad" actor Jesse Plemons is hotly tipped to join the franchise, but nothing has officially been set in stone.
"Episode 7" is slated to hit theatres on December 18, 2015. Two sequels are set to follow for 2017 and 2019 releases respectively. No official cast members have been announced, but Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher are expected to reprise their roles as the classic "Star Wars" trio, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Princess Leia.

Publisher's Description
Emphasizing the historical distance between the New Testament and our contemporary culture, The Sermon on the Mount by Scot McKnight, part of the new The Story of God Bible Commentary series, offers helpful contextual insights for those seeking to discern how to live out the Bible in todays world. Perfect for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and lay people alike, this highly anticipated series provides a clear and compelling exposition of the text in the context of the Bibles overarching story. The authors move away from application language, which has been criticized as being too simplistic, encouraging instead a wider perspective and discussion of how the biblical story can be lived today.
Offering a new type of application commentary for todays context, the Story of God Bible Commentary series explains and illuminates Scripture as Gods Story, with each New Testament text examined as embedded in its canonical and historical setting, in order to foster discernment in living the story faithfully and creatively with and for the Church in the 21st Century.

High-limit room to open at Erie casino
A spin on one of the slot machines will cost $100.
The betting on the two blackjack tables will start at $50 and $100.
Presque Isle Downs & Casino will roll out its high-limit room for high rollers tonight, and it's not for the penny pinchers -- or the penny slot players.
The 2,050-square-foot room, in the southwest corner of the casino's main floor, features 31 slot machines -- with denominations from $1 to $100 -- and the two blackjack tables.
The room will be previewed for gamblers and the media from 7 to 9 p.m., after which it will open to the public, said casino spokeswoman Jennifer See.

My wife and I have been travelling in South East Asia every winter for the past 30ish years. Snow birds of a different plumage if you will.
Years ago we were in Cambodia trying to find a situation where we could volunteer for a couple of months. Both of us worked in the telecommunications industry so we thought we might have some skills to offer. We ran into road-block after road-block. The situation was... in the past there have been so many problems with the wrong people having access to the young people, all the NGOs are very nervous about expats. The vetting time takes quite a while with lots of red tape and the opening are for 6 month minimum.
So we thought that we could build websites for struggling entrepreneurs at no charge for domains or hosting. Every winter we are finding new situations. It's a way we can give back, pay it forward. Small businesses all over Asia can benefit from internet visibility. Tourism is such a huge part of the economy and the modern travelers are using the internet more and more to make choices for travel.
A website conveys legitimacy. We try to help!

Most students buy the laptop that the school provides. The wireless internet is really fast when it's working.
You need a laptop but there is a school package available.
Every student is required to have a laptop. Most buy one through the school's discount program. Wifi access across campus is great.
It's a tech school. It's kind of what we do. So the networks and computers you can buy here are only the best. And the computer help is amazing. The computer science majors here will fix all your problems at the help desk. However every one here has a computer so there are no labs.
Since we are provided a laptop, as a mandatory thing out of our own pocket, we have to make use of it. The warranty on them makes them seem like a great deal, assuming you can be clumsy and would expect to somehow harm your laptop unintentionally.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
The network is fast, and there are plenty of places to plug your laptop in-including a wireless network in some buildings on campus. Rensselaer has a reputation of being one of the most "wired" campuses in the country, and it is a reputation well earned. The high-speed network provides instant access to the Web and also to the RPI server, both of which are invaluable tools for students.
Some classes will require a lot of online coursework, while in others, you won't touch your computer at all. One thing to remember is to check your e-mail regularly, though. The majority of outside communication between students, professors, and TAs occurs through e-mail, and if you miss an important one, you could miss a deadline or schedule change. It's a lot easier than going to a professor's office, though, so take advantage. The laptop requirement-though it can be cumbersome, awkward, and expensive at first-is really a great tool for students. Using computers to your advantage becomes second nature before Thanksgiving break of your freshman year.

5 stars Like others have said, you really don't feel like 6000 people are on this ship, except at muster time. our ship was 100% full too. We are experienced cruisers and this was our best cruise yet.
Great food - We ate in the MDR 6 of the 7 nights and at Johnny Rockets once. For breakfast we ate in the solarium every day. Very peaceful!
The ships water was fantastic - don't spend $$ on bottled water or bring it onboard.
Ship was clean...everywhere we turned someone was cleaning something.
There is so much to do every day. Entertainment was great. I only got to see 1 show due to there being so much else to do but that was great - Aquatheater!
Cabin - excellent - see my review below.
Fitness facilities were great. We used every day and lost weight on the cruise.
Did not use spa facilities.
Casino - Great. Slots had nice payouts, same as land casinos
Staff - Great
There were always plenty of deck chairs in the sun and in the shade. Deck patrol was frequent and moved towels that were just placed after 30 minutes.
Don't hesitate to cruise this ship!
One word of caution - before you get caught up in those sales on the promenade....they are counting on you not to price double check. We purchased a nice watch discounted from $250 to $135. I got home and checked amazon and it's $87.00 there. Because there is no easy internet available that would have been good to know. Buyer beware ! ;-)

I am using Toshiba Satellite L300. I just used it for 2 years already.The problem is when I connected to the power supply my laptop suddenly restart or the laptop gets stuck(cant do anything, even switch off the laptop),but when I connect to the battery only without using power supply, my laptop working perfectly. I try remove the battery and used only power supply but the same problem occur. I am also change the adapter. The problem still happen. I can used the laptop only using battery.
I am running WIndows 7 but I have tried it using windows xp and got the smae result. Can anyone help?
Hope this helps it is a post of mine from here http://laptopforums.toshiba.com/t5/Batteries-and-P
Re: Laptop will only run on battery, freezes when the AC is plugged in.
I have had this problem for some time now on my Toshiba Satellite a205-s4607. I first had some random shutdowns here & there a about five months back. I cleaned the dust out of my laptop & did some virus scans. I had been seeing programs unresponsive as well as it was starting to shutdown or freeze when I walked away (This was NOT hibernation or Sleep mode).
I then noticed when I had NOD32 scanning my Hard Drive, Defragging, or Burning something it wouldn't freeze or shut down. So, I usually just kept NOD32 scanning at all times & was good until a month ago. Then it started freezing anytime it was plugged in (Very Annoying!!) It still charged my battery, but that was it. Next I did a fresh reinstall of the OS on battery power. Then I checked my original power cord & it is putting out the correct voltage. My DC Jack was a little loose & I noticed if I held it in a certain position while it started up it seemed ok for a bit. So, I bought a new jack & installed it for $5 & I checked the voltage on the CMOS battery which was fine at around 3volts.. The problem was still there when I put it back together. Then I started reading a lot of forums & found this one.
Chrischungs suggestion of
In SafeMode Goto control panel--> device manager---> goto processor----> disable one of the two processors --> reboot normally. This FIXED the problem, but 1processor is not really a great fix; more of a work around.
Well I decided now that I had a fully charged battery & running on the power cord for Around an hour; that I would RE-Enable the processor that I had previously disabled & Now it is WORKING LIKE it should with the power cord & both Processors.
The only thing is; keep your laptop in the sleep, hibernate state or just leave it on; otherwise you will have to In SafeMode Goto control panel--> device manager---> goto processor----> disable one of the two processors --> reboot normally. You can also go into bios & disable your processor there instead of SafeMode.
There are a lot of people with this issue I have found & with many different Brands of laptops, I am guessing that most if not all people have Core 2 Duo processors or multi core. I am happy for having this fix I just hope it lasts, I have been running on the power cord for 5 days with No FREEZES & both Processors. Give it a try & see if it works for you!!
I was updating Windows & it required a restart; I was still running on 2 processors & power cord, so I disconnected the power cord & restarted on battery. I then let all programs load & about 15 min later used the power cord with both processors. A bit later it Froze on me. I had to go through the process again of disabling the processor & all.
So, I recommend if you are installing software or doing Microsoft updates & all it is good to only run on the 1 processor or you will have to repeat the process & wait about an hour or more before enabling the 2nd one.
Hope this helps & someone finds a REAL fix.
hey thanks..

Can one argue that really great sex proves the existence of God? Can a play in which a woman verbally counts out her simulated, onstage orgasms still be described as wholesome and old-fashioned? Is actor Jeff Daniels' "Apartment 3A," the comedy triggering these questions, really funny?

The birth of Utley Brothers Printing is a classic Made-in-Detroit story which actually has it's beginning in western Kansas when the older of two brothers sold his clarinet to purchase a mail order table top printing press. Much to his mother's dismay, Wheeler Utley, decided as a high school student he would rather make money than make music and turned his focus towards his new hobby.
1933 was not a good year for Wheeler Utley to start a printing business. After all it was in the midst of the Great Depression. Wheeler pushed ahead through high school, gaining printing experience with his mail order press. The hobby turned into a passion at about the time the Utley family moved to Detroit, Michigan. The boys' father, L.C. Utley, was a preacher and wrote religious tracts. He needed someone to print his publications so he encouraged Wheeler to become a "real" printer. They bought an old hand-fed press that had been stored for years in a chicken coop. Wheeler took the press home, cleaned it up and set up shop in the basement of the family home. Wheeler adopted the name Globe Print Shop for the new business. Small-yet-steady progress eventually led the young entrepreneur to open a "real" print shop on Manchester Street in Detroit, Michigan.
In 1945, World War II was ending and younger brother Bob returned from service with the Marines in the Pacific. Bob joined Wheeler in the business and they formally established Utley Brothers Printing on March 18, 1945. After years of war the country began to shift its focus and Detroit transitioned from being the Arsenal of Democracy to becoming the Motor City. So on a cold winter night in 1952, Bob and Wheeler visited a local car dealer to see the new car models. The cars were beautiful but the business cards they received were awful...really drab-looking!
The brothers went back to their printing shop, designed some colorful cards and set samples to a selected list of car dealers. The first year they sold 300 orders of cards. Wow! They were sure they had found their niche. For the next 29 years the two brothers worked as a team to build the family printing business.

Pooled human plasma, untreated, has been a frequent cause of serum hepatitis. Blood from one donor carrying the virus can make a whole pool infectious. Obviously the likelihood of plasma being infected varies with the number of donors making up the pool. Plasma from a large pool is more frequently infected than plasma from a small pool. The probability of contracting serum hepatitis from a whole blood transfusion is extremely small. Paine and Janeway1 have analyzed reports on this subject.
Exposing plasma to ultraviolet light seemed to obviate this hazard. Known icterogenic serum so treated has been given in small quantities to volunteers without causing hepatitis.2 MacCallum,3 on the other hand, used a different technique of irradiation that failed to prevent the transmission of hepatitis. Irradiation of plasma has been required by the National Institutes of Health since April, 1949, as a prerequisite to licensing manufacturers.

Should Philadelphia be allowed to buy up property in Tinicum Township to expand the airport and relieve congestions and delays?
On Tuesday, a three-judge panel for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit heard oral arguments from lawyers representing Delaware County and Tinicum Township, where two-thirds of the airport is located and which oppose the expansion, and the city of Philadelphia. No decision was expected immediately.
In August, a lower court ruled that the city could buy land in Tinicum Township for the airport's expansion.

Perhaps they could throw on a 92fs type safety to satisfy the military's safety requirement and wamo a 21st century .45 auto for our GI's. Discuss amongst yourselves. :D

Dead issue at this point.
Big Army decided to keep the M9 for the time being.
USASOC dropped the new .45 program as well. This means a lot of units (read: anyone who can get away with it) are using a real grab bag of Beretta alternatives, both in 9mm and .45 ACP. Haven't heard about anyone from within USASOC going downrange with XD 45s or XD 9s, but would not surprise me if it had happened or will happen soon -- lots of HKs and some Glocks already getting workouts.
September 18, 2006, 07:38 PM
it lacks a hammer and I don't like it (for military service) as its not an American gun.
September 18, 2006, 07:42 PM
it lacks a hammer and I don't like it (for military service) as its not an American gun.
I'd rather have the best gun than an American gun, if the two are not the same thing (not saying the XD is the "best" necessarily). I figure I'm already doing my part for flag waving and such by wearing the uniform, getting stuck with an inferior weapon because it was invented hereabouts just seems over the top. :)
September 18, 2006, 07:47 PM
and why couldn't an American company produce a gun capable of serving in our military? I'll bet Colt or Smith & Wesson could tool up a great design that would work fantastically. In fact, a S&W autoloader would do very well if there were a new pistol trial. They've been serving in LEO capacity for many years. I believe there are still some countries using the S&W Model 39 in a police capacity.
September 18, 2006, 08:56 PM
The range I frequent has seen XD's break on a semi regular basis. I know from these boards that this isn't typical but to see that many catastrophic malfs just isn't good :scrutiny:
September 18, 2006, 08:58 PM
10-Ring, could you be more specific about what broke on the XD's. The only reports I am hearing are trigger breakege.
September 18, 2006, 09:01 PM
Yes and all Glocks explode...
But seriously, given that all handguns ever made all seem to be complete pieces of junk, I just don't see the XD being picked up by the US Military. I mean yeah it would work, I just don't see it ever catching on.
One thing that really kills the XD for use as a service weapon is there's not really a lot of support in the way of armorers. I can find Sig and Glock armorers within 100 miles of me.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, in an email to 10 million names in its database Thursday, highlighted the league's safety programs and new emphasis on safety in youth football.
The letter came a day after two excerpts from a new book -- "League of Denial: The NFL, Concussions and the Battle for Truth" -- detailed what authors Mark Fainaru-Wada and Steve Fainaru claim was the NFL using its power and resources to downplay the effects of concussions on NFL players.
In his letter, Goodell said the NFL is committed "to deliver the game that the fans love and the safety that players deserve." He also wrote that "we will continue to find ways to protect players so they can enjoy longer careers on the field and healthier lives off the field."
The 1,000-plus-word letter comes on the heels of excerpts of "League of Denial," which ran on ESPN.com and in Sports Illustrated. The book claims that the NFL used its power and resources to discredit independent scientists and their work, that the league cited research data that minimized the dangers of concussions while emphasizing the league's flawed research and that league executives employed an aggressive public relations strategy designed to keep the public unaware of what league executives really knew about the effects of playing the game.
It says the NFL's stance on concussions began under former commissioner Paul Tagliabue, who left office in 2006, but continued under Goodell, his successor. The book claims that the NFL underplayed concussions despite paying out $2 million in disability benefits in 1999.
The health of former players and the league's previous scientific exploration formed the basis of a lawsuit filed against the NFL by more than 4,500 former players. The players charged that the league's Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Committee conducted fraudulent research to hide the connection between football and brain damage. On Aug. 29, the NFL and the former players settled the lawsuit for $765 million.
In the letter, Goodell wrote that "there have been numerous safety-related rules changes going back decades: from the 1970s when we eliminated the head slap, to the 80s when we eliminated clubbing, to the 90s when we increased protection for defenseless players, to the 2000s when the horse collar tackle was made illegal. When we identify dangerous techniques, we adopt rules to eliminate them."
He added: "Our commitment goes beyond the NFL. We know that our actions influence college, high school, and youth football. It is part of a shared responsibility to protect the future of our game. We are especially proud of our partnership with USA Football this year to successfully launch 'Heads Up Football,' a program designed to ensure that coaches are trained and certified in proper tackling techniques as well as concussion and hydration education."
He concluded by writing that "Football will remain the hard-hitting, physical sport that you love. And we will continue to be vigilant in seeking ways to make the game even better and safer. The future of football is brighter, bigger, better, and more exciting than ever" and thanking fans for their support.
"League of Denial" will be released Tuesday by Crown Archetype.

"When money is plentiful, this is a man's world. When money is scarce, it is a woman's world." Unearthed in a 1932 issue of Ladies Home Journal, this quote is the call to arms that begins Peace and Plenty, Sarah Ban Breathnach's answer to the world's - and her own personal -financial crisis. As only Ban Breathnach can, she culls together this compendium of advice, deeply personal anecdotes, and excerpts from magazines, books, and newspapers - particularly those of the Great Depression - to inspire listeners who are mired in today's financial difficulties.
Focusing on her own personal path, Sarah Ban Breathnach will relate never-before revealed details about how she fell from the financial top to the bottom. Readers will immediately see how deeply she understands the plight of those trying to maintain a happy and comfortable home while at the same time not even knowing if they will be able to make the mortgage to keep that home.
Sarah has proven to be the voice of comfort for years to women who are spiritually bankrupt, and now she will reach out to those who are financially strapped, showing them how to pull themselves out of their psychic and fiscal crises while providing deep comfort and reassurance throughout.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Sarah Ban Breathnach has done it again! Just when I thought no book could beat her Simple Abundance, here is another beautiful book about finding the spiritual in the everyday; and building a rich relationship with, life, money, yourself and the Divine. Brava Sarah!
