Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

Maintenance Assessment Districts
A Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) is a legal mechanism by which property owners can vote to assess themselves to receive enhanced maintenance, landscaping, and lighting services. These services are above and beyond the City's baseline general services. Self-managed MADs differ from the City's Park & Recreation Department managed MADs in that district property owners select, by ballot, a nonprofit corporation to contract for the provision of enhanced goods and services. The San Diego Municipal Code allows non-profit corporations to administer MADs when property owners support the selection of a particular non-profit corporation for their district. It is the City's responsibility to oversee the corporation's administration of the MADs to ensure compliance with local and State statutes.
Property and Business Improvement District
A Property and Business Improvement District (PBID) is a tool available to property and business owners to improve a downtown or other commercial area. It is a partnership between the public and private sector, organized for the improvement of a specific geographic area. In California, PBIDs are formed pursuant to the Property and Business Improvement District Law of 1994. A PBID is a special benefit assessment district designed to raise funds within a specific geographic area. Funds may be raised through a special assessment on real property, businesses, or a combination of both, and are used to provide supplemental services beyond those provided by the city.
Property and Business Improvement District Renewal
The existing Downtown Property & Business Improvement District (PBID), which was last renewed in 2005, will end on June 30, 2015. In response to a petition from Downtown property owners, the City is currently conducting proceedings regarding renewal of the PBID for 10 years starting July 1, 2015.
See these documents for more information: Management District Plan + Appendices 1-8 ; Appendix 9 - Roll ; Appendix 10 ? Map Book ; Map ; Resolution Of Intention R-309520 ; Ballot Guidelines ; Request To Withdraw Ballot / Request For Replacement Ballot ; and Sample Ballot and Notice .
The City Council meeting scheduled for Monday, May 11, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. will include an item for the required Public Hearing on this proposed Renewal and the public is invited to attend and to provide testimony. The meeting location is Council Chambers in the City Administration Building, 202 C St., 12th Floor, San Diego, CA 92101. For questions on the above, please contact City staff member Elizabeth Studebaker at (619) 533-4561 or via email at [email protected].

Today's guest post is written by Andy Crestodina.
Social proof, also known as informational social influence, is a psychological phenomenon where people assume the actions of others to reflect correct behavior for a given situation…The effects of social influence can be seen in the tendency of large groups to conform to choices which may be either correct or mistaken; a phenomenon sometimes referred to as herd behavior (source: Wikipedia).
We're all affected by the actions of people around us, especially when we have little information to go on.
This is called "social proof" and Twitter is a great example of this kind of psychology at work.
When you see an account with a large following, it looks like a big third-party endorsement. There is not much other information but a tiny image and the 140-character tweets. So we quickly assume the person must be influential.
But are they? Not always…
Auto Follow, Follow Back, Auto Follow, Auto Unfollow…yawn
TweetAdder is a tool that can grow a following quickly. It finds people who meet certain criteria, then follows them by the hundreds or even thousands per day. Typically around 40 percent of these accounts follow back and thus, the following grows quickly.
Some people run these auto-follow tools at such high levels, following so many people so quickly, they actually exceed the maximum number of allowed calls to Twitter per hour, "maxing out the API." And if hundreds of those accounts don't follow back? No worries. TweetAdder will automatically unfollow those in a few days or weeks. This keeps the following/follower ratio looking good and the "social proof" high.
This technique is often used to push followings to ridiculous heights, even to tens of thousands of "followers." At this point, the numbers lose their meaning and social proof breaks down.
Loved! …by robots
These accounts are easy to spot. They have huge followings, close follower/following ratios, and either tens of thousands of tweets or sometimes very few. The followers are often phony or irrelevant accounts, some in foreign languages, some without bios or profile pictures. Just pick one of these social media "superstars" and scroll through their list of followers. Do you see accounts like this?
Or this guy?
Or someone like this?
How could your neighborhood social media expert possibly have a connection with this Japanese student? They don't. It's just a robot talking to another robot. Nothing could be less interesting or less social. It's almost anti-social media. I get bored and sleepy just thinking about it.
If you've been on Twitter for long, you may have asked yourself: Why is this British accountant following me? Who is this German DJ and how did they find me? They didn't. It's likely an automated tool like TweetAdder. Congratulations. A robot is now following you and can't wait for your next tweet!
Social Proof or Social Spoof?
Before you develop an opinion, look at the followers. Lots of completely irrelevant crap? See if they are really talking to people. No real conversation? Then don't be too impressed. Social proof and large followings often really don't mean as much as you'd think. Other indicators of influence are also easy to fake, such as a high Klout score or high "listed" numbers on Twitter.
On the other hand, if you're a social media professional, it's your job to help build up your clients' networks. I believe that TweetAdder is a perfectly legitimate way to jump start things at the beginning and get the client up to a basic level of credibility quickly. Yes, this approach is artificial, but it's a legitimate time saver. There is a fine line between automation and spamming.
What matters is real connections to real people who are really interested.
Klaatu Barada Nikto
This was the phrase from the end of the classic 1951 movie The Day The Earth Stood Still. I think it translates to "Klaatu calls of the robots" because when Gort, the killer robot, heard the phrase, he stopped destroying the planet. It would be nice to hear "Twitter barada nikto" but sadly, there is no sign of these auto-following twitterbots slowing down.

(Let's not all talk at once!)
I have two views on these twitterbots. I haven't used them (as my profile shows) but I can see myself offering them to a client — for a short time. A bot can help build just enough 'bulk' to give an impression of authenticity and then let the client build on top of that layer.
(even as I type that, I'm kind of shaking my head — an impression of authenticity? yikes!)
@BethKSchmitz I think you're right to ponder on this. Here's something else I wonder… when we follow the Twitter "recommended" users, isn't it still just a robot…
@BethKSchmitz @manamica and the same goes for Klout! but don't get me started. 🙂 just goes to show you have to dig deeper than the numbers.
I agree, most on twitter use social proof to boost their perceived celebrity status. In some cases I guess it works, in others, definitely not.
@DanielMWood Would it be legitimate to "Report as Spam" any account that has 10,000 followers and no tweets? Unfair?
@crestodina @DanielMWood I think only if their actions are "spamified." If it isn't affecting anything, I don't knoww that I would.
@Lisa Gerber@crestodina@DanielMWood I don't think auto-follow is necessarily spam. However, both Facebook and Google+ try to clean up their account base by blocking "fake" accounts. So maybe Twitter needs a "report robot" button. And if they come up with a really cute icon for it we'll see lots of fun Halloween costumes next year :).
@manamica what a cool idea!!
Bots blow.
@BradShorr But how do you really feel?
@BradShorr In the case of Blade Runner's Rachael and Battlestar Galactica's Number Six and Star Trek Voyager's Seven of Nine, your imagery of bots blowing is kind of nice.
@Ari Herzog@BradShorr (That's nasty!)
@BethKSchmitz What's nasty about women with guns blowing things up? @BradShorr
@Ari Herzog@BradShorr You're right — what /was/ I thinking! 😉
@ginidietrich @orbiteers That's where I'm passing time!
Pick your favorite local Twitter celebrity, be impressed at the size of their massive following, then go look at who those followers are. Still impressed?
So does following size matter at all? Maybe not so much…
@crestodina that's the other problem with the "social collection" reasoning – you can actually "follow" someone on Twitter without following them. I extensively use lists and sometimes I add someone on a list and forget to follow them. I read what they post, I retweet their posts. With an open space like Twitter is actual following (as in, pressing the "follow" button) even needed to have conversations?
If you want to see real social proof helping to launch a local restaurant it is detailed here: http://spirocks.com/social-proof-helps-launch-a-restaurant/
Very true. It's all very easy to fake. I understand the idea that no one wants to go to a party they don't think anyone is attending – so I get the *impulse* to fake some of this. But the actual concerted effort to look like you have more of an audience than you do is a relic from the age of traditional marketing. Wasn't that long ago that this was taught as the basics of marketing – there needs to be an unlearning stage between that world and social media.
@ginidietrich Did you know you have a famous twin out there: http://t.co/4sCQhk9k (This isn't spam) Looks just like you!
@schedulicity LOL! Do you know I start my presentations with a photo of her and one of me and show that I'm NOT her
@ginidietrich By the way, hope you're well!!!
People who fake social identity would get bored of their non-existing influence sooner or later.

@orbiteers BTW, I like how you've "structured" your blog. Looking to do something similar with a group I'm working with, as it were.
@iamadamgreen thanks for the compliment. I like that we have our faces up there. Makes it more personal 🙂 ^ag
If there was a tool that automatically removed robot accounts from your following, would you use it? What if it cost you a ton of your followers?
I cringe when I get a new follower and it's obvious from their profile that they are a bot/spammer. I immediately block those accounts.
The other thing I hate is when I get a tweet like "KyleAkerman have you seen this (link)" from a complete stranger. It is blatant spam that just detracts from the positive social aspect of Twitter.

Says Charlie Crist "stood there, over 3 African-American prisoners in chains, on their knees, on the side of the road. Saying that it was a great sight. Saying we needed to bring it to Florida.

In 1937 Cedric Morris and his partner Arthur Lett-Haines opened their own private art school at Dedham in Essex, which they called The East Anglian School of Painting and Drawing. The school provided its students with an atmosphere of freedom, dedication and enthusiasm. David Carr and Barbara Gilligan were both students at this art school when they sat for this joint portrait. They married later. David Carr was a painter and sculptor and Barbara was a painter. Morris has presented these two friends in an unusual composition and has enjoyed painting the textures of their woollen jumpers.

During the American Revolution and the border conflicts that followed, Simon Girty's name struck terror into the hearts of U.S. settlers in the Ohio Valley and the territory of Kentucky. Girty (1741-1818) had lived with the Natives most of his life. Scorned by his fellow white frontiersmen as an "Indian lover," Girty became an Indian agent for the British. He accompanied Native raids against Americans, spied deep into enemy territory, and was influential in convincing the tribes to fight for the British.
The Americans declared Girty an outlaw. In U.S. history books he is a villain even worse than Benedict Arnold. Yet in Canada, Girty is regarded as a Loyalist hero, and a historic plaque marks the site of his homestead on the Ontario side of the Detroit River.
In Native history, Girty stands out as one of the few white men who championed their cause against American expansion. But was he truly the "White Savage" of legend, or a hero whose story was twisted by his foes?

"Politicians. Businessmen. Nobody's watching them anymore."
As newsrooms disappear, veteran reporters are being forced from the profession. They dedicated their lives to telling other people's stories. What happens when no one wants to print their words anymore?
The Times They Are a-Changin'
In 1962, fifty years ago this month, striking union printers shut down four New York City newspapers in resistance to computerized, automated technologies that were being introduced in newsrooms across the country. Five other area papers shut down voluntarily. The strike lasted 114 days and sounded the death knell for four newspapers. For a brief period, New York was a laboratory that demonstrated what can happen when newspapers vanish. Today, new technology is again shaking American newspapers as the Internet drains away more and more advertising revenue. Is this The Long Good Bye? [more inside]

End Times?
Virtually all the predictions about the death of old media have assumed a comfortingly long time frame for the end of print—the moment when, amid a panoply of flashing lights, press conferences, and elegiac reminiscences, the newspaper presses stop rolling and news goes entirely digital. Most of these scenarios assume a gradual crossing-over, almost like the migration of dunes, as behaviors change, paradigms shift, and the digital future heaves fully into view. But what if the old media dies much more quickly? What if a hurricane comes along and obliterates the dunes entirely? Specifically, what if The New York Times goes out of business—like, this May?

The taste was good but the texture odd. When it was first baked the crust was so hard, it was hard to cut through. The part on top of the crust was fairly moist so after it had sat for about 1 1/2 days it was finely easy to cut through the crust due to the moisture from the top part softening it and then it was easier to eat. My guys didn't like it when it was fresh since they said the crust was too hard but once it softened they said it was fine. I know I didn't bake it too long since I baked only 25 minutes in my oven. Not sure what happened. I wondered about the flour sugar ration since 1 to 1 is high so I am guessing that for some reason the botton crust carmelized a bit during baking. So when fresh we didn't enjoy. After it had ripened it was much better. So I only give it 3 stars since it seemed to behave oddly.
These definitely lived up to what I have come to except from Kitten. I was a little worried about the crust and was temped to add additional butter but fought the urge. The recipe was reduced by half and I decided to line the pan with foil to facilitate removal and clean-up. The moisture from the wet ingredients was plenty and the crust was deliciously tender. The brown sugar was Splenda Brown Sugar Blend and plain yogurt took the place of the sour cream. I did use the full amount of cinnamon. These were lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar before serving.

Black's Law Dictionary is considered definitive on the meaning of legal terms. The Dictionary defines "privilege" as "a special legal right, exemption, or immunity granted to a person or class of persons; an exception to a duty." It usually refers to the legal right to withhold information from authorities or to refuse to participate in judicial proceedings.
Western courts recognize "privilege" in specific cases and to varying degrees. For example, such strong privilege attaches to attorney-client communication that it is considered a prerequisite of justice itself. In R v. Derby Magistrates' Court (1996), the court found,
The client must be sure that what he tells his lawyer in confidence will never be revealed without his consent. Legal profession privilege is thus much more than an ordinary rule of evidence, limited in its application to the facts of a particular case. It is a fundamental condition on which the administration of justice as a whole rests.
Utterances made to the clergy, especially during confession or spiritual counseling, enjoy similarly strong protection as part of the separation of church and state. Doctor-patient privilege exists to a lesser degree because of recent requirements for doctors to report any suspicion of crimes such as domestic violence. A journalist's First Amendment 'right' to protect the identity of sources has been under concerted attack for decades.
One of the most famous types of privilege is 'spousal immunity' that, in America, includes two separate legal rights: a communications privilege and a testimonial privilege. The specifics, including exclusions, vary from state to state and in the federal courts. In general, however, the communications privilege protects confidential communications made during a marriage. The testimonial privilege protects one spouse from being forced to testify against the other on the basis of observations; for example, if a spouse accused of embezzlement kept large sums of cash in a shoebox. The purpose of spousal immunity is to draw a line between the private and public sector across which the state cannot step and, so, interfere with marital harmony.
But the idea of legal privileges for any individual or class creates tension within American law. The phrase "equal justice under law" is engraved on the front of the U.S. Supreme Court building, and equal justice presupposes the equal application of law. In short, the American ideal of justice runs counter to legal privilege.
Legal privilege has been part of the common law tradition for centuries; common law refers to the part of the English law that derives from custom and court precedent,not from statutes. Consider spousal privilege. Lord Edward Coke – the foremost jurist of the Elizabethan period – penned what is widely viewed as the first statement of spousal privilege in his book The First Part of the Institutes of the Lawes of England (1628),
it hath beene resolved by the Justices that a wife cannot be produced either against or for her husband, quia sunt duae animae in carne una [for they are two souls in one flesh], and it might be a cause of implacable discord and dissention betweene the husband and the wife, and a meane of great inconvenience.
No one knows the precise genesis of this privilege but it probably had Biblical roots similar to that of many other marital laws. For example, the Bible quotes Jesus as stating, "Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." (King James Bible, Mark X:9.) This had been interpreted as an advisement for the law to avoid turning spouses against each other. By the late 17th century, the spousal privilege was well established.
Coke's interpretation of common law was particularly important to the American colonies because it coincided with the drafting of their charters. The colonies in America adopted something of a patchwork approach to the law but, overall, they tended toward the common law tradition. In reviewing the book The Common Law in Colonial America: Volume I: The Chesapeake and New England, 1607-1660 by William E. Nelson, George W. Liebmann explained,
New England law [1650] was founded on views resembling the Protestant approach to the Bible…while the Catholic minority in Maryland consciously adopted English common law to provide a fixed standard to shield a religious minority from future majority oppression. Virginia ultimately turned toward the English common law to provide assurance to providers of capital and because the colony could no longer be governed on a military command system.
Thus the Founding Fathers, most of whom were of English extraction, were familiar with English common law and tended to incorporate aspects of it that seemed to make society and the courts work well. Of Coke, Thomas Jefferson once wrote to James Madison, "a sounder whig never wrote, nor of profounder learning in the orthodox doctrines of the British constitution, or in what were called English liberties."
Legal scholars Robert Catz and Jill Lange explained the tension caused by adopting English common law, however. They wrote,
"Framers of the American legal system quite naturally looked to England as a foundation for establishing legal doctrine." Nevertheless, the idea of legal privilege was closely associated with royalty and a class structure. Thus, it was "met with some ambivalence….The Framers wanted an egalitarian system….Many viewed privilege as a type of title/class obstacle to the search for truth and as an impediment to the right to a fair and just trial."
Other forms of legal privilege to silence share a similar history. For example, the attorney-client privilege harks back to ancient Rome and, in 1577, it became the first such privilege recognized within common law. The American colonies adopted the practice, with Delaware codifying it in its 1776 constitution.
The legal privilege of remaining silent is usually discussed in connection with special classes of people, like journalists or spouses, whom the law treats differently due to their profession or their personal relationship to an accused. When that privilege is questioned, it is generally done in the name of 'the public good' or 'the public's right to know'.
When phrased in this manner, the debate usually concludes by removing or eroding any right to silence. For example, a recent news headline in ACLA (Australian Corporate Lawyer Association) read, "The Demise of Spousal Privilege in Australian law." The article chronicled the High Court case Australian Crime Commission v Stoddart (2011) in which the court was asked to determine if spousal privilege was, indeed, part of common law. The High Court "held that the common law did not provide a sufficient basis for the conclusion that spousal privilege exists in the modern context." Increasingly, the debate veers in this direction.
It is a false debate, however. The right to remain silent and not divulge what you know is not a class privilege. It is an integral, inseparable aspect of everyone's right to freedom of speech. Whether you base this right upon a Constitution, natural law or God's will, it is inalienable. That is, the right can neither be stripped away nor augmented because of someone's profession or his relationship to another person who is accused of a crime. Thus, the question of whether a journalist or priest should be able to remain silent misses the point. The issue is "why isn't everyone able to exercise this inalienable aspect of free speech?"
In other words, there should be no privilege under the law or in its application. This does not mean abandoning the legal right of spouses, attorneys, clergies and other currently 'privileged groups' to remain silent. It means the 'privilege' of privacy and freedom of speech should be universalized; it should be extended to all individuals so that no one is compelled by government to disclose information or to testify in court.
In his book The Ethics of Liberty, libertarian theorist Murray Rothbard wrote,
The solution to the problem of the newsman's sources [or any alleged 'privilege' to not divulge information]…rests in the right of the knower — any knower — to keep silent, to not disseminate knowledge if he so desires. Hence, not only newsmen and physicians, but everyone should have the right to protect their sources, or to be silent, in court or anywhere else. And this, indeed, is the other side of the coin of our previous strictures against the compulsory subpoena power. No one should be forced to testify at all, not only against himself (as in the Fifth Amendment) but against or for anyone else. Compulsory testimony itself is the central evil in this entire problem.
A solid case can be made for using social pressure and other peaceful inducements in order to persuade people to speak and to testify. But, if peaceful inducements fail, then it is not within the proper jurisdiction of government to force people to provide it with information. Courts must not violate rights in the name of protecting them.

To keep up on all things ChromeSkull, you can follow production updates on Twitter via @LaidToRestMovie, "like" ChromeSkull: Laid to Rest 2 on Facebook, or check out the official Laid to Rest 2 website!
Question: Tell us about your role.
Mimi Michaels: I play Jess. She's sort of just your happy-go-lucky young 20's gal, and basically she gets shell-shocked when ChromeSkull has chosen her as one of his targets, and he shows up in her home and all the craziness ensues from there. To add insult to injury, she has early stages of glaucoma. So while this maniacal bastard is chasing her down, everything is very blurry. She doesn't know what's going on, and she can't see. It's just craziness.
Question: How does he target you, though?
Mimi Michaels: That's the thing. For my character, she never knows why he decides to pick her – this whole crazy journey of confusion and of not knowing or understanding why she is one of his victims. Yeah, I guess you will have to ask Chromey that. But the whole time, she's like 'Why me? What the hell is going on?', and she is very puzzled the whole time.
Question: And the glaucoma thing is just, 'tough shit?'
Mimi Michaels: 'Yep. You're going to have to deal with that too.' But it's been cool because I've never had to play blind or 'going blind', and it's hard, especially with all of the emotions of being chased down by this crazy man. Like I also have to create this world where I can't really see, and it's difficult.
Question: Did you draw upon any other actor's performances for things like that, like Jessica Alba in The Eye?
Mimi Michaels: Actually (I drew from) my mom, who's been dealing with eye issues recently. I was talking to her, and it's a lot of things dealing with your periphery. I unfortunately have 20/20. But yeah, just dealing with that and walking around with my eyes shut or bleary eyed. I've been using stuff to put in my eyes to make them blurry for myself so it's more realistic for me.
Question: I can imagine. That's rough. So, talk about working with Nick (Principle, aka ChromeSkull), who has quite the height on you now.
Mimi Michaels: He's what, 6'7"? He's huge. Actually the other day, we were filming a scene where he just throws me over his shoulder and throws me into a coffin. I felt like a feather. And he's kinda, 'Meh.' It's just so easy being so big. Nick is amazing, which is so funny because when I first met him, he's very intimidating. I mean, he's a big guy, playing ChromeSkull. And it was nice to feel a little bit nervous because of the health of my character. But he's such a nice guy. And it's been really cool, the scenes that I've had with him – with the mask on, he's so menacing and intimidating, and it really helps me get into character so easily. He's really great. In the film, in one of his attacks, he gashes my leg, and Nick gave me some advice to put some pebbles in my shoe, which helped with the walk (post-gash) because it's actually really painful. But it was a nice suggestion on his part. He's really great to work with.
Question: Besides the knee dagger, were you privy to any other kills? Were you exposed to any of that kind of stuff?
Mimi Michaels: She sees some stuff go down. I don't want to give too much away. In her blurry vision, she does get to see some things that I don't think she'd forget too soon.
Question: So you want to work with these crazy guys again?
Mimi Michaels: It's been such an awesome experience. Everyone is so cool, so great. Rob is so amazing. It's such a good feeling on the set. There's this kind of camaraderie and everyone loves this kind of genre.
Question: And you, too?
Mimi Michaels: Yeah, I love it! I just find it so much fun. I just love watching all of the stuff they do with prosthetics. I like the gore and the blood. I just find it exciting. It's exhausting though, for my character. I'm running around, screaming and crying and being bloody a lot. But I enjoy it.
Question: Who else do you get to work with besides Nick?
Mimi Michaels: Well, Brian Austin Green is right now getting his bald cap put on. So it might be his big death scene today … or not. I don't know. That should be an interesting scene to watch. He's great, working with him. He plays a disciple of ChromeSkull, and he's really good at playing this evil character.
Question: We saw a little clip. He looks really menacing.
Mimi Michaels: Totally. And we had a couple of scenes where I believed because he was really scaring the shit out of me. Yeah, everyone I've worked with – actors, crew, everyone – are really just so cool.

I have had a satellite A665-S6050 for about a year and a half now. Recently I noticed that if I used the laptop on battery I would not get the battery life expected. I realize this may be due to the fact that the battery could be coming to an end in it's life. However, after this decrease in life began I started noticing other issues. My computer would unexpectedly just shut off. I would not be able to turn the laptop back on without the AC adapter. These episodes got more and more frequent until I could no longer use the battery at all. I then puchased a new battery, charged it about 8hrs, and began using it. It worked correctly for about a day. ThenI began having issues where the battery life would only last about 10 to 15 minutes then unexpectedly shut off. I could not turn the computer back on unless I used the AC adapter. THe battery would show about 96% charge and would charge to 100% in about 5 minutes. That in itself seemed odd. But I still tried to use the bettery. Much to my dismay it still had issues with unexpected shut down. Intermittently I could get the battery to turn on without the AC adapter, but when I did so it would crackle and shut off. I discovered after some research I did not have the correct model battery, and returned it. I then purchased another battery of the correct model thinking this would solve my issues. Ureka, I was working normal. Or so I thought, until about 2 days after charging and using the battery llike normal, my issues were back. Randomly the computer will shut down unexpectedly on battery power. Sometimes it will turn back on with the battery and sometime it wont. Sometimes it will fully boot and sometimes it wont. Sometimes it will allow me to use the battery for about 5 minutes and sometimes it shuts off as soon as the AC adapter is unplugged. All of this is random. I have tried the following solutions:
1. powering off, unplugging everything, taking out the battery, holding the power key 30 sec, putting it all back together, starting on AC power, flashing the BIOS, and booting. This did not work. As soon as the AC adapter was removed it either worked 5 minutes and shut off or just shut off.
2. Updating the BIOS with no real results.
3. Removing the battery for about 30 minutes, replacing and trying to charge and use. This made no change to the issues.
4. Cleaning the contacts, blowing out the fan, and trying to boot with battery or AC adapte with no changes.
The only thing I have not tried yet is a cooling pad. My computer says I have a fully charged battery. It shows the blue LED that indicated a full charge and battery present. However, when I unplug the AC adapter I do not get an LED light. The LED is orange when it is charging, but I have not used enough of the battery lately for even this to happen. I am on a satellite A665-S6050 running windows 7 home premium 64 bit version. I have even gone so far as to reload the system to factory settings to see if I was missing anything in the memory , BIOS, and other settings I would not touch with a 10 foot pole. This did not seem to make any difference. I am so fed up with this issue I am about to take this laptop for a long walk off a short pier. I travel alot with my computer and need the battery to work correctly. I have contacted support, but since out of warrenty they will not touch it. They tell me to contact a service center of which there is none within 2 plus hours from me. Could you please advise me on how to solve this issue before I spend needless money on more batteries and other hardware I may not need because I do not know what my issue really is. I am frustrated and seriously disappointed with my laptop and customer service. Please help me solve my issues before I go insane.
Update on my battery issues. As time wears on htings are getting worse. My computer is intermittently not recognizing my battery. It shows up as an unknown device in device manager. I have to uninstall and scan for hardware changes to get it back. If I reboot then I lose the battery icon in the system tray and it comes up unknown device in the device manager. Also I can no longer get the battery to do anything when unplugged. I opened the back of the computer and blew out a bunch of dust and dog hair recently and since doing this my battery does nothing, and the issues mentioned above have started. Please please someone help me.
I am having the exact problem with my A505-S6980. My original battery was not holding a charge and I got an error saying battery needed to be replaced. After nearly 3 years of faithful service I could not complain. I could only use laptop on AC. So I bought a 12-cell battery and it worked great. I could unplug the computer and get about 6 or so hours of battery life.
I let the battery drain down before recharging several times.
New Battery is nearing three weeks of age. When I unplug it at full charge, I have power for about 5 mintues then the computer shuts off completely. Not sleep or hibernate but a rough shut down. I have to plug back in and I get the bios message saying I didn't shut down directly.
Please advise.
I am having this exact same issue with my A665-s6050 running Windows 7. I thought it was the original battery causing the issue so I bought a new one but the random rebooting still occurred. The only way I found to work around the random reboot is to take the battery out and run on AC power only.
I updated the BIOS to 2.30 last night and thought the issue was fixed because the battery started charging and the laptop didn't reboot for several minutes. I checked this morning though and the problem is still happening.
Has anyone had any success in resolving this?

GOLD 1ST WAVE BEAR COMPLETED 0 commentsJun 11, 2012 2:41 PM | about stocks: GLD
On March 19th I indicated the GOLD bull run was over for now.
The following chart showing a bearish reversal, with a bear wedge and downside EW1 target of $1500 was posted.
We technically chart GOLD on year over year, week over week. Doing it this way will pull out some recurring patterns.
A 21 week Fib sequence chart, June/July 2011 to June/July 2012 shows significant highs at Fib weeks 5, 8, 13. Expect Fib week 21, the next Fib week in the sequence, to also bring in a significant HIGH, not a low; consistent with the previous week cycles. (Notice I have marked the EW counts in Roman numerals, showing the completion of EW1)
Slow stochastic at the 50% and 80% levels marked previous FIB week highs. We will watch for this to line up with FIB week 21; along with calculated retrace prices between $1590 and $1680.
Once these targets are hit, EW wave 2 will be completed and impulse EW3 down will begin. I will provide downside targets at that time.
The put/call ratio backs up our bear market in GOLD thesis. As the price has moved lower, the put to call ratio has gotten more BULLISH; which is the opposite of what brings about bottoms.
This extreme bullishness in GOLD will help end EW2 and usher in a EW3 sell off.
Put/Call ratio suggest GOLD has much more room to fall.
Our EW1 low projections from March came in near the exact price. Now we are awaiting EW2 to work off some oversold conditions before a major EW3 impulse down move takes GOLD substantially lower.

The proposed TA supports the PRC government's strategy for delinking the economic growth and increased greenhouse gas emissions and increasing the utilization of renewable energy. The proposed TA is also a timely response to address the urban air pollution in Northern PRC which is partly attributed to coal fired heating plants located in urban areas and supports the recently issued regulations by National Energy Administration to increase non-polluting energy sources for heat supply. ADB's PRC: Country Partnership Strategy 2011 2015 also prioritized ADB support for innovative technologies and institutional arrangements to mitigate climate change, urban environment and private sector participation in delivery of public services. The proposed TA will enhance the capacity of provincial government agencies to utilize distributed renewable energy sources for heat supply in urban areas by assessing the feasibility of geothermal energy and wind power as a potential heat source in the context of Hebei Province.
