|This book is the perfect size and the perfect depth for getting up to speed quickly with building Windows 8 Store Applications.
The book starts by introducing WinRT. This introduction includes a really nice history of how Microsoft got to where they are now. It starts with a look back at MS-DOS, MS-DOS Executive, the Win32 API, COM, and.NET. The introduction leads us up to NUI (Natural User Interface) and the Windows Store Application Design Principles.
The first chapter ends with a look at the Windows 8 tool that are available to developers and designers. They include, Blend for Visual Studio, C++ and XAML, HTML5 and JavaScript, and VB/C# and XAML.
I have listed all the chapters below.
1. The New Windows Runtime
2. Getting Started
3. Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML)
4. Windows 8 Applications
5. Application Lifecycle
6. Data
7. Tiles and Toasts
8. Giving Your Application Charm
9. MVVM and Testing
10. Packaging and Deploying
The Getting Started chapter covers setting up your environment, which includes Windows 8, Visual Studio 2012, and expression blend for Visual Studio. It also covers the details of all the available project templates that come in the Windows Store category of Visual Studio's project templates.
The book then continues on with a nice overview of XAML. The author does a good job of covering a lot of topics as well as going in-depth enough to give you a thorough understanding of the topics that he chose to cover. XAML is a big topic, but the author did a great job of covering the essentials needed to get started.
Chapter 4, Windows 8 Applications, starts out with a nice overview of the Windows 8 simulator that comes with the development environment. The chapter continues on covering the application view states, semantic zoom, how to handle user input, mouse support, keyboard support, sensors, the application bar, and much more.
The one thing that the book really brought to light was a big flaw with the Windows Store Applications design. Not so much by explicitly pointing it, but rather by having nothing to say about it. That flaw being, a complete lack of capability for the applications to be run off-line with any sizable local data store. There really is no large data storage available to the Windows Store Applications beyond application state persistence. That raised a big red flag.
In searching the web, I found a lot of people having big issues with that. It looks like SQLite has come up with a solution they say will make it through the Windows Store approval process.
The chapter Giving Your Application Charm covers contracts and Windows 8 Extensions which allow for application information sharing handled at an operating system level. This is one of the coolest features built into Windows 8.
The book ends with a short chapter on MVVM and unit testing, and a short chapter on packaging and deploying.
The author has all the examples used in the book available for download. They're very well organized and usable. All of the examples ran without needing any modification.
Overall I found this book an enjoyable read. I thought the author's writing style made the book very easy to read from cover to cover. I will also be keeping it by on my side to use as a reference.
If you are planning on building Windows 8 Applications with C# and XAML, I recommend you start with this book. It will give you a great foundation on which to build your experience.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Basic, safe, clean, location in old town near fortress (at some distance from the train station - oh and map is still not right), but also not very comfortable matress, lack of curtain + very strong street (courtyard) light outside, door buzzing occationally throughout the night. Overall an ok place.

The Cincinnati Bengals are coming off back-to-back playoff appearances, led by youngsters A.J. Green and Andy Dalton. Make no mistake -- A.J. Green is safe in Cincinnati for as long as he wants to be.
However, there is a lot of buzz around Cincinnati about whether or not Dalton, the team's quarterback, is on thin ice.
Let's look at the facts. In 32 starts with the Bengals, Dalton has thrown 47 touchdowns to only 29 interceptions. That's a positive.
He's also thrown for over 7,000 yards over those two seasons. Another decent number. So why the speculation?
For one, he has been abysmal in both of his postseason games against Houston. Those two games have seen Dalton throw four interceptions and not even one touchdown. Additionally, this past January, he was only able to muster 127 yards while completing under 50 percent of his passes. Thus, here comes the criticism.
While at TCU, Dalton was a much more mobile quarterback than he is in the NFL, which I'm in favor of. What that means, however, is that Dalton has to rely on his arm more often. After two seasons, Bengals' fans have seen what all the criticism about Dalton's arm was about.
He can't throw the deep ball. He's able to get it downfield which is great—but Green can't chase down all of those passes. Usually, the deep ball out of Dalton's cannon is overthrown or somehow, simply off the mark.
Hence, the Bengals selected Notre Dame tight end Tyler Eifert in the Draft. Dalton is more likely to be successful with passes over the middle of the field for 7-11 yards, not the deep ball for 25+ yards. By adding Eifert, the Bengals' front office has supplied their third-year quarterback with another tool equipped properly for him.
Let's give Dalton a little bit of a break though—he really hasn't had any sort of run game since he came out of TCU. He was originally stuck with an aging Cedric Benson, and last season with BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who is no doubt talented, but not a guy who can carry the full load. With the addition of Giovani Bernard, it would seem Dalton is going to get more help from the running game.
Still, there are those who believe the Bengals will never amount to anything with Andy Dalton in control of the reins. Some believe there's too much wrong with his game and that he's not a franchise leader.
As of now, I find that criticism to be harsh. The Bengals weren't supposed to be worth anything in 2011, and Dalton led the team to a 9-7 season. In 2012, he upped the game and got to 10-6.
They always say the third time's a charm—does it need to be for Dalton?

November 8, 1986
HUBERT A. VAUGHAN, Petitioner,
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent
Petitioner seeks the appointment of counsel, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3006 A(g) (1982), together with a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1982) asserting various violations of the Constitution.
Petitioner was arrested on April 6, 1969 for conspiring to rob a bank and for committing the robbery there while using a firearm. Petitioner was convicted before Judge Cannella on all counts and on December 17, 1969 was sentenced to a maximum term of 25 years; Judge Cannella on April 20, 1970 reduced this term to a maximum of 15 years.
Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3568 (1982) petitioner was credited through the office of the U.S. Attorney General with 225 "Jail Credit Days" served prior to the imposition of the sentence. (Sentence Computation Records, Petitioner's Exhibits A, B)
The Second Circuit on April 19, 1971 reversed petitioner's conviction and remanded for a new trial. United States v. Vaughan, 443 F.2d 92 (2d Cir. 1971). Petitioner, in a jury trial before us was again convicted of all charges and was sentenced on August 5, 1971 to 15 years; said conviction affirmed in open court by the Second Circuit on November 8, 1972.
The decision of whether to appoint counsel includes factors such as
the likelihood of success on the merits, the complexity of the legal issues raised by the complaint and the ability of the indigent (here, petitioner) to investigate and present the case. Weygandt v. Look, 718 F.2d 952 (9th Cir. 1983); Wilson v. Duckworth, 716 F.2d 415 (7th Cir. 1983).
Shaird v. Scully, 610 F. Supp. 442, 444 (S.D.N.Y. 1985).
It is clear that the legal issues raised in the instant proceeding are not complicated, do not require involved inquiry and have little to no likelihood of success.
Accordingly, under 18 U.S.C. § 3006A (g) (1982) we hold that the interests of justice in this case do not require appointment of counsel for petitioner.
Petitioner, by the instant application, asserts entitlement to relief on the following grounds: violation of the double jeopardy clause, denial of due process and ineffective assistance of counsel.
A. Double Jeopardy
Petitioner asserts that this Court's reimposition of the fifteen year sentence did not fully account for time previously served and good time credit earned thereon, thus placing him twice in jeopardy for the same offense.
Petitioner correctly maintains that:
the constitutional guarantee against multiple punishment for the same offense absolutely requires that punishment already exacted must be fully "credited" in imposing sentence upon a new conviction for the same offense.
North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. 711, 718-19, 23 L. Ed. 2d 656, 89 S. Ct. 2072 (1969).
Petitioner, however, incorrectly asserts that it is presently the function of this Court to determine whether he has received full credit. 18 U.S.C. § 3568 (1982) expressly provides that such determination shall be made by the Attorney General -- not by the federal courts:
[t]he sentence of imprisonment of any person convicted of an offense shall commence to run from the date on which such person is received at the penitentiary, reformatory or jail for service of such sentence. The Attorney General shall give any such person credit toward service of his sentence for any days spent in custody in connection with the offense or acts for which sentence is imposed.
Other courts construing § 3568 are in accord. For example, in United States v. Clayton, 588 F.2d 1288, 1292 (9th Cir. 1979) (construing § 3568) the court stated:
[i]t is the administrative responsibility of the Attorney General ... to compute sentences and apply credit where it is due. It is not the province of the sentencing court.
See also United States v. Mathis, 689 F.2d 1364, 1365 (11th Cir. 1982); Soyka v. Alldredge, 481 F.2d 303, 305 (3d Cir. 1973).
Decisions regarding good time credits (a 10 day reduction in sentence for every 30 days well served) must likewise be presented first to the Attorney General. 18 U.S.C. § 4166 (1982).
Thus, before petitioner is entitled to relief by writ of habeas corpus, he must first demonstrate that the Attorney General has refused to grant him credit he legally deserves. United States v. Morgan, 425 F.2d 1388 (5th Cir. 1970). Of course, "[a]fter the decision by the Attorney General, a dissatisfied petitioner may seek review of that administrative action." Mathis, 689 F.2d at 1365. In any event, we lack jurisdiction at this time to consider the merits of petitioner's claim because he has failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. Id. To hold otherwise would undermine the express will of Congress.
We note petitioner's argument that in North Carolina v. Pearce, supra, the Court addressed the issue of crediting time served without requiring the claim to be presented first to the Attorney General. Pearce, however, applied 18 U.S.C. § 3568 in its pre-1966 amendment form. At that time, the statute did not specifically provide for redress before the Attorney General as it now does. Therefore, petitioner's reliance on Pearce is inappropriate in light of the amendment in 1966.
Accordingly, we reject petitioner's double jeopardy claim.
B. Due Process
Petitioner contends that this Court's remarks at re-sentencing evidence a vindictiveness that resulted in a heavier sentence than that imposed by Judge Cannella. Petitioner reasons that the second sentence imposed was harsher because the Court did not credit him for time previously served.
Due process prohibits the imposition of a more severe sentence upon a defendant who successfully appealed his first conviction. North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. at 723-25. It is clear that in re-sentencing the Court abided by this well-settled rule. Indeed, as we stated:
[w]hether I am inclined to or not, the law makes it mandatory, according to U.S.A. against Coke, a case with which I dealt a year or two ago, that the Court impose no larger sentence than that imposed in the first instance.... Accordingly, the total sentence here will be the same as that meted out by Judge Cannella -- 15 years.
(Sentencing Transcript, August 5, 1971 at 567)
Despite the foregoing, petitioner nevertheless maintains that his due process rights were violated because the Court allegedly did not give full credit for time previously served. As stated above in the context of petitioner's double jeopardy claim, it is not the province of this Court to compute sentences and apply credit. In order for petitioner "to secure credit for pretrial custody, he must pursue his administrative remedies through the office of the Attorney General -- specifically, through the Federal Prison System, which is under the Attorney General's supervision." Mathis, 689 F.2d at 1365.
Accordingly, we look to the sentence meted out by the Court -- not the sentence as recomputed by the Attorney General. This Court in 1971 imposed a sentence identical to that meted out by Judge Cannella in 1970. Hence we find no denial of petitioner's due process rights.
C. Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Petitioner claims that he did not receive effective assistance of counsel at his retrial. Specifically, he asserts that his attorney failed to present the government's burden of proof as to the issue of petitioner's sanity.
This argument is wholly without merit. As the jury charge demonstrates, the burden upon the government was clear:
[t]he law presumes that the defendant was sane when the acts charged were committed. However, this presumption is rebuttable, and when the defendant offers evidence which raises a substantial challenge to the presumption of his sanity, as was done here, then the burden is upon the government to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant at the time of the acts in question was legally sane.
(Transcript of Retrial at 509-10, 519)
Furthermore, the Supreme Court has established a stringent two-part test for evaluating an allegation of ineffective assistance of counsel:
[f]irst the defendant must show that counsel's performance was deficient. This requires showing that counsel made errors so serious that counsel was not functioning as the "counsel" guaranteed the defendant by the sixth amendment. Second, the defendant must show that the deficient performance prejudiced the defense. This requires showing that counsel's errors were so serious as to deprive the defendant of a fair trial, a trial whose result is reliable.... A convicted defendant making a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel must identify the acts or omission of counsel that are alleged not to have been the result of a reasonable professional.
Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 690, 80 L. Ed. 2d 674, 104 S. Ct. 2052 (1984). Clearly petitioner was not demonstrated that counsel made errors so egregious as to satisfy either prong of the Strickland test. He presents only his incorrect allegation of failure to instruct on the issue of burden of proof.
"[R]ecogniz[ing] that counsel is strongly presumed to have rendered adequate assistance and made all significant decisions in the exercise of reasonable Professional judgment," we find that petitioner was not denied effective assistance of counsel. Strickland, 466 U.S. at 690.
In view of the foregoing, we hold each of petitioner's applications without merit in every respect. Accordingly, we are constrained to, and do, deny petitioner's writ of habeas corpus.

Nice building. Nothing to add more. Easy to buy tickets. We managed to buy cheapest tickets to bangkok 44 bath in train with no seats. Tickets need to same day when leaving with that train. Now we are waiting till tomorow.
This is a good stop for maximum15 minutes. Not much to do...the place is pretty and vintagey. Some food stalls but definitely not for a proper meal.
The railway station is worth a visit, both to see the life at a station today, and to get the feeling of the good old railway days.
We got the train from Bangkok to Hua Hin. It was a chaotic time as the King had just died but still it was relatively easy. The Train from BKK to Hua Hin was a recliner seated carriage with a free orange cordial, cake and blanket. The conductor told us when it was time to get off. It cost 480Bht...
If you like train station, this is a good place to visit. It is a nice place to take picture and learn about the history of the station. Nearby there is a library on a disused train....reminded me of The book Totto-chan - The little girl at the window.
Beautiful working station on the main line from Bangkok. Looks very much to be modelled on a Victorian design plus some Thai flair.
If you arrived by transport other than the train this station is a must for a visit/photo opportunity.
Built in 1910, rebuilt in 1926 and relocated to it's present position in 1967. Noted for it's Royal waiting...
If you are staying in the area, a quick visit to the Hua Hin railway station is definitely something to do.
Built in 1923. Still very much functional.
Picturesque. Charming. Dainty teak structured. Amazing.
There is a platform, waiting area specifically mean't for Thai Royalty. Fascinating. For those exalted ones.
The common platform is exactly that... for commoners.
Great eye candy. Worth a visit.
It makes a change to go to an old railway station and see that it has been restored to how it was in the past, also next to the station is the building the Royals used when they visited Hua Hin, this building has also been restored to how it was when the Royals came to visit.
On the opposite...
the railway station is very nice. you have the normal one for people and beside it is the railway station of the royal family. really beautiful.

Beautiful well equipped gite , in a stunning countryside setting.
As a family of 8, with children ranging from 6 to 16 this holiday excided all our requirements .
From the beautiful open plan living space to the gorgeous private pool and shaded areas that surround the property we truly needed for nothing in our 2 week stay .
All our children were completely content and very relax , which is a tall order with 5 girls.
Kass, Tim and Co couldn't of been more welcoming and extremely helpful . Always pointed us in the right direction whenever we needed info on local events, restaurants and general French life.
We feel like not only did we find a beautiful spot in rural Charente but also made great friends for life .
La belle lavendre is just perfect and we will most defiantly be returning soon.
Once again we can't thank Kass & Tim enough for the perfect stay .

Chic rural stay
What a weeks stay! We will defiantly return. Chic rural retreat surrounded by countryside and villages. Spotlessly clean. Comfortable beds and 2 en suites perfect for groups.
Plenty of highlights like the horse ride in the river. Wonderful pool and gardens and made to feel so welcome. Thank you
Superb retreat.
'In hours of weariness, sensations sweet,
Felt in the blood, and felt along the heart,
And passing even into my purer mind
With tranquil restoration'
To quote Wordsworth as cannot explain the beauty and calm of La Belle Lavande.Hosts extremely warm,hospitable and helpful. We were aparty ranging from 5 years old to 63 and everyone wanted to stay longer. Will one day be back.
Gold standard gite in a beautiful and peaceful area
The owners were extremely welcoming and helpful, offering suggestions about where to go and good places to eat. The property was equipped and presented to an extremely high standard with a fantastic, spotlessly clean pool, top quality linens and furnishings and many little extras such as candles and matches and barbecue charcoal. We were greeted with a complimentary selection of vegetables from the garden and provisions in the fridge including a welcome bottle of wine. I highly recommend this gite, it was excellent value for money and we all would have liked to stay longer. My teenage daughters especially loved the pool and their beautiful rooms, and the garden was gorgeous with a huge shaded area to eat outside and another fabulous shady pergola next to the pool. We all really enjoyed kayaking down the Charente river and the area had lots to do if you could drag yourself away from the pool.
Luxurious gite, great pool
We chose La Belle Lavande for our first family holiday with our three-month-old baby. The in-laws and our 3-year-old nephew joined us for one week and we all agreed it was a fantastic base for a group holiday. The welcome hamper was generous with the Nutella going down a treat.
The gite is very stylishly decorated with great touches such as the baguette basket. The outside space is stunning and we really enjoyed eating outside (when the weather allowed). The pool is huge and the covered seating area provides respite from the heat. The outside power source is a great touch if you like to listen to music.
Kass is a great host, friendly, unobtrusive but there if needed. We'd definitely return as this is a perfect base from which to explore the region.
Beautiful gite in beautiful location!
After a long drive with young children we finally arrived and were not disappointed, the gite was beautiful!!!! Very tastefully decorated in a modern but French style. Bedrooms were all a good size with lovely bedding and very comfortable. The garden and pool were lovely and the photos don't do it justice. The kids (ages 3 to 7) absolutely loved it here - the freedom, the pool, the dogs, the chickens, the goats but especially the horses! Having a ride on Melody was definitely Poppy's holiday highlight!!! Thank you Kass, Ottie and family for a great holiday in a very pretty part of France x
P.s hope we didn't completely fill up the village bottle bank :)

Purchased from: Daddy's Junky Music
Ease of Use: I bought this pedal last week at Daddy's Junky Music, here in Warwick, R.I. for the measley sum of $14.99. Forget about the manual, you don't need it. This pedal isn't exactly rocket science to operate. It only took me about 5 minutes of figiting with it to get a great sound. I am very pleased with this lil' monster. // 9
Sound: I am using a 2006 MIM Fender Sunburst Strat and a 1997 American made, Crate GX-65 combo with this pedal, and I must say, this is the 1st pedal that actually sounds good through this amp. I was using a DigiTech RP50 before, but it wouldn't sound good through this amp, so I sold it, and decided to just get this and next, a Fab Chorus. That's all I need. // 9
Reliability & Durability: I realize that this is made of plastic, but I'm also a firm believer in taking care of your equipment, so I don't see why this shouldn't last me for a few years or so. If not, I can always go and get another one. I could and have used this on a gig without backup, and let me say one thing. If you are going to get one of these, make sure that you buy the Danelectro adaptor, because this thing eats batteries alive. // 8
Overall Impression: I have been playing for over 35 years and I play mostly classic rock with some blues on the side. Why Danelectro didn't come out with these earlier, I don't know, but I'm glad they did. For those of us on a low budget, these are great pedals. I intend to get the Chorus one next, and then I'm going to see about getting the Fish & Chips compressor, then that'll be it. // 9
Price paid: $ 15
Purchased from: Guitar Center
Ease of Use: All very straight forward, virtually no 'instruction' more of a pamphlet, but it isn't needed. Plug in, tweak and go. // 9
Sound: The sound doesn't seem to have a nice sine curve at all. It seems to be stuck in 'up' and then at regular times, swoop down and then straight back up again, no spacey gradual roundness, just up, down-up. I can't really get too many great usable sounds out of it other than sheer experimentations, it's difficult to get the sound of someone else (they probably arent using a 15 buck flange though). Seems to like flanging my Hiss rather than my guitar. Not a noisy pedal though, which is an unexpected plus at 15 bucks. 6 because it is damned hard to mimic another sound with it, but still a fun cheap toy. You get what you pay for in this case. // 6
Reliability & Durability: Plastic housing is decent, if I were to gig with it it wouldn't be an issue because I wouldn't be stomping the crap out of it, but it would be vulnerable to drops. I wouldn't bother with a backup. But I would bring a different flange. Battery anomaly, if you tighten the bottom too tight it wont turn on, but just ease up on the thumbscrew a bit and then no problems. Sucks battery. Went through 2 full 9 volts in a few days before I figured it out. Unplug the Input always when not in use. 8 because it sucks the life out of batteries very fast, and there are probably other quirks that could come up unexpectedly if one were to gig with it. // 8
Overall Impression: I play mostly some sort of alt rock, but this is more suited for sounds. It sounds like no other flanger, good thing and a bad thing. I should've tried it more extensively, but hey, for 15 bucks it gets you a sound close enough to some things to use. If it were stolen/lost I would be annoyed but not that long as I plan to buy a different one when I can, this is a cheap substitute till then. Some cool things about it is if you max the Regen it has a weird Zipping sound to it, and with other effeccts you can shape that into something fun. But as stated before, for experimentation. My biggest complaint is the non-smooth sweep it has. That's probably the single biggest reason it is hard to mimic other sounds, it's almost transparent until it drasticly super-sweeps. 7, many complaints, but it is pretty solid and a fun noisemaker for 15 bucks. // 7
Price paid: $ 23.7
Purchased from: Movies and Music
Ease of Use: I personally can't see a pedal getting much easier to use in ragards to the controls. Only three control nobs, so its not complicated. // 10
Sound: I am using a very cheap beginner Typhoon guitar, and a Custom 16 watt amp. Pretty cheap equipment, I had it since I started (planning on upgrading this summer) with a Fab Chorus and metal. This pedal overall wasn't that noisy. Anthou when the regen control is turned out to the max it do give a lot of feedback caused by the "swooshing" sound that this pedal makes when the buttons are maxed. I found that quite annoying. But I found the sounds were neat. It's a great pedal when playing for fun. It's a good, and the sound is pretty good. The only thing I hated about this pedal was that somtimes it took a while to get a sensible non swooshing sound from it. But it was a good buy. // 8
Reliability & Durability: So far I can totally depend on this pedal, it looks and feels great with regards to it durability. Although I wouldn't go crazy and stamp on it everytime I want to turn it on while playing. I would take this to a gig and probably use this one for backup. If I was interested in playing in from of crowds and making money I would probably buy and more expensive pedal than this one. But saying that this pedal sounds pretty darn good. // 7
Overall Impression: I like to play music that consists of alot of chorus effect. So the flange was a good choice for the type of music I like to play. I also use a Danelectro Fab Metal pedal regularly and it sounds great with that pedal also. If this pedal were stolen I would defiantly buy it again. I love the "tube" sound this thing gives off. But I don't like the heavy swooshing sound that it give off when the pedal is maxed. I don't see the point of suck a sound on the guitar. // 8
Ease of Use: Very easy to use, three knobs "regen", "speed", and "depth". I bought it mainly because I don't like the flanger on my Vox AD50VT. The manual is superfluous and you might as well just throw it out. If you have an IQ higher than gravel you'll be able to figure it out on your own. // 8
Sound: I'm using this with my Saga kit Strat (with Fender Tex-Mex pickups) for the most part. It's doesn't give too much hissing, which is good for a $15 pedal. The biggest beef I have with this pedal is that it only sounds good if one or more of the knobs is maxed out. It's hard to get a good mild flange going. When all three knobs are maxed out it sounds like a tremolo + flange. It has a very experimental/psychedelic sound to it. // 6
Reliability & Durability: It seems sturdy enough for a plastic-cased pedal, but I wouldn't jump around on it. In the unlikely even that I would use it for a gig I wouldn't worry about having a backup because I don't destroy my pedals. The Switch doesn't click, which caught me off-guard. There is an LED, so it's not impossible to tell when the effect is on. // 7
Overall Impression: I play a lot of progressive rock and the flanger is an important effect for the genre. Unfortunately this flanger is not completely up to snuff in terms of versatility. If you want a gentle flange sweeping in the background while you're wailing on a solo, this is not the pedal for you. Buy this pedal only if you like experimental-sounding effects. // 7
Price paid: $ 20
Purchased from: Local Shop
Ease of Use: It's a pretty easy product to use. A regain, speed, and depth knob is it. It came with a manual, but I'm one of those people who think they can do it mostly by themselves and most of the time can get it right. The only thing that I don't like is that the button that you stomp or press overtime gets somewhat sticky and it might take a couple touches to get it on/off. // 9
Sound: I use this with my Peavey Raptor EXP or my Gibson Les Paul 100. And for an amp I use my little Peavey Backstage 11x11 practice amp. You can pretty easily get a lot regain and that gets a good amount of noise. Basically keep it around 12 o'clock for all of them [the knobs] and you should get a great sound out of it. You can get the sound of Rush pretty easily. It gets the nice glow of a twelve string... if you have the right settings. It can also get almost like a tremolo (like most flangers) with the speed all of the way up. // 9
Reliability & Durability: It has lasted me for about a year now with pretty constant use. I don't really stomp on it with the full force of my leg though. I just recently made myself a good pedalboard, and before I had just been stuffing it in the back of my amp. That probably wasn't the best idea. But nonetheless, it lasted me this long, pretty good for a plastic pedal. Not even a crack. But it does get smear marks like crazy. // 9
Overall Impression: I really wish that it had a different design. Not so rounded with a metal button that you stomp. Also, the knobs could be at the top so you didn't have to strain your neck to see the settings. And if they kept the knobs, make the little dashes white instead of red. Another thing with the design is that the input/output jacks could maybe go on the side instead of the back. I mainly chose this one because at the time I had hardly any money, I needed some effects, and this was at the check out counter and I figured that twenty bucks wouldn't hurt. And go figure. It surprised me a lot. It was a pretty decent buy. If it were stolen/lost I might buy it again if I were on a budget but if not, I would probably buy a Behringer because they are designed better. But overall, if you're on a budget, get this. // 9

Comments: John ( & Josie) Johnson (Nee: unknown) | Grand Rapids MI United States | 1851-1900 | Comments: John Joanson (Johan Johansson), a twin of Charles Johnson (Carl Johansson), was b. 23 June 1856, in Alster Parish, Varmland, Sweden. He and his non-identical twin brother emigrated about 1886 to Grand Rapids, Kent, MI. They Americanized their names. John Johnson married Josie, probably in MI and had several children. Family oral history says that authorities removed three children from the home because the parents were heavy drinkers. When the parents could not get the children back, they were said to have moved to CA. No further contact known. See Carl Johansson / Charles Johnson (twin)photo. I'd love to find out what happened to John Johnson and wife Josie. Anyone recogize the photo?

This is really close to how we make clam dip, except for I don't use sour cream and just use the cream cheese. Also, I use a tad bit of lemon juice to keep it fresh. Other than that, it's a recipe that we've used for years and love. Thanks for posting!

Kim Jong Il dead
What a shame hey
bin laden gone
Gaddaffi gone
Hussein gone
Jong gone
nice little pattern forming there
So Saddam, Bin laden, Gadafi and now dear leader. Does that mean we can have some real super villans like Lex Luther or Dr Evil?
So who said good guys finish last?
What sort of bike was he riding?
Why does the song 'Highway to hell' come in mind reading/hearing of this guy's illustrious history ?
I still believe he was riding a 0.0000001 cc scooter with pink ribbons as bar ends and a specially made (read 'invisible dildo') seat...
There are some who the masses will mourn over. For others...
Some other ****, like his son, will just replace him.
So Kim Jong Il is now Kim Jong Dead .
It will be interesting to see how his successor turns out. I gather, from speculation a couple of years ago when KJI was first known to have cancer that he may be a little more outward looking.
One can hope, anyway.
glorious leader can not die this is western propaganda by countries that are envious of North Korea great might, economy and culture
his son will be even worse
and will no doubt need to assert that
and soon
...he was great in Team America...
...so ronery...
If you let good be synonymous with nice, Greenday.
mini jong
A tribute to the 'great' man....
Depending on who you talk to he's been dead for various amounts of time already.
I doubt he's been running things for a while at any rate.
As for his son, one can only hope things will improve for the North Korean people but I doubt it somehow - Kim Jong-Un doesn't know any different does he?
And with China's growing economic power there's no real reason for the country to change.
One thought I've just now had though: Junior must be the first leader born after the ceasefire was called - I wonder if that means anything at all?
His son does not have the backing of the military like his dad did.
And his son will want to make his own imprint on the world.
North Korea is starving with all the money dad spent on the military to keep their backing.
South Korea is one of the most prosperous countries going at the moment.
Troubled times ahead I feel.
Nice timing Obamah.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the back room political manoeuvrings, his 3rd son Kim Jong Un was believed to be the one groomed for power. He is a guy in his mid twenties. The real power behind the thrown is likely to be Vice Marshal Ri Yong-ho and he is ex military old guard so I don't think a lot will change.

Back OT.. North Korea is really an amazing country. No other regime has so completely and totally brainwashed the population as well as they have. Take a look at this documentary and you'll see what I mean. They've been completely isolated from the rest of the world from the 50's. Entire generations have existed without any outside contact whatsoever. Imagine living in such a vacuum, how would you know the rest of the world had it so much better? Why would you revolt and overthrow the leader who you've been told repeatedly throughout your entire life how he's so great? They don't even know how bad the country is because there's nothing else to compare themselves with.
There is a lot of original genuine propaganda footage which really must be seen to be not-believed.
There are more parts 4 and 5 as well but find them yourselves

I made these for a bachelorette party and then some more the next day for my family. Everyone loved 'em, loved 'em, loved 'em. My sister (a picky eater) said I should become a caterer!! The lettuce leaves were difficult for me to work with. I ended up cutting as many 2.5"X1" pieces off each leaf (discarded the ribs of the leaf)and then cutting pieces of cheese and ham just slightly smaller than the lettuce pieces. And I was liberal with the sour cream mixture. The rolls held themselves well, but next time I will add toothpicks if I need them. I ended up with a bunch of 1.5X pieces that were perfectly bite size. I didn't need as much cheese and ham called for by the recipe as I made my roll-ups smaller than a full size of a piece of lettuce. SO YUMMY! The lettuce, cheese, ham, and mixture go so well together. Thanks!! :)
Excellent appetizer! Highly addictive. Love the sauce mixture. Low carb never tasted so good!
Everyone went back for seconds! I made these appetizers for a barbecue along with jalopeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese. And also cut melons cubes. They complimented each other. Made up a pretty platter as well. Thanks again Kittencal!!

Chelsea Clinton Daughter

Another skeleton in Hillary's closet is coming back to haunt her. It appears Chelsea Clinton's real father is Webster (Webb)Hubbell, the former Mayor of Little Rock, Arkansas and law partner of Killary. This helps explain Chelsea's unfortunate looks.
Photograph of President William (Bill) Jefferson Clinton and Chelsea Clinton in the Study of the Chappaqua Residence in Chappaqua, New York, 11/07/2000
Chelsea Victoria Clinton (born February 27, 1980) is the only child of former U.S. President Bill Clinton and former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. She is a special correspondent for NBC News, and works with the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative. Only Daughter of 42nd #President of the United States 44th #FirstLady

Did Webb Hubble Just Inadvertently Admit to Being Chelsea Clinton's Real Dad? He was Hillary's Law partner in Arkansas. Both Webb and Killary make references to each other in their respective books. Webb also states that looking at Chelsea makes him feel successful. Can anyone see the resemblance in the lips and nose? Hmm. Maybe Killary isn't a lesbian afterall. Or asking for a 2nd opinion.

Early October visit: Had a great stay in this studio. It was the perfect size for me, well appointed with what a person needs, and the location could not have been more perfect. 9th Street et al was the area of choice for dinner almost every night and was very accessible from this studio. I loved having the door to the garden open in the morning and evening to let the fresh cool air come in. So so good - so good. If I had one comment, and a simple thing really, it would be to have filtered water or filtered pitcher - and that isn't really a complaint at all. LOVED THIS PLACE AND WILL STAY AGAIN. Highly recommended for a single person or couple. On a side note, thanks for taking the time to chat with me a couple of times Matt. It was nice to know the owner of who I was 'kinda' living with :) Thank you Matt, very much and I hope I left the place as perfect as I found it. See you again soon I hope!
This studio worked wonderfully for me and my two teenaged boys. The owner was very responsive by email, and the place was clean and comfortable. My older son used the air matress while my younger son and I shared the bed. Because the studio is at the back of the first floor of the owner's house, it's super quiet and has a lovely garden just outside the room which gave the studio a greater feeling of spaciousness. My only complaint about the studio was that the kitchenette is really quite small and hard to cook in due to very limited counter space. You really shouldn't count on eating in too much. But that's o.k. because there are so many great little restaurants right in the neighborhood. Inner Sunset has the feeling of a homey community with small shops, cafes, a farmers market, and all kinds of people just going about their lives. The neighborhood is full of lovely Victorian and Arts-and-Crafts style houses. We did a lot of wandering around, enjoying the Botanical Gardens at Golden Gate Park as well as walking to other neighborhoods (though the street cars are an easy way to get around, too). I would certainly recommend the studio to friends or family.
My boyfriend and I came to SF for a fun run at Golden Gate Park and were lucky enough to secure this adorable studio nearby. We came late at night and checking in was a breeze - all the instructions we were given were very easy to follow. The neighborhood was lovely, we felt comfortable walking around at all times of day or night. The studio was close to several restaurants, bars, shopping. It was the perfect area, especially if you're going to GGPark (walkable!). The studio itself was well maintained and very clean. The garden was a peaceful area to relax in, drink your morning coffee. Studio was very cozy and cute, perfect for 2 people. I didn't have a chance to meet the owners but that's okay because that means there were absolutely no problems! We will definitely be back!
On the plus side - Great central location! Also, the studio is quiet. Negatives - the studio is rather small and rustic. If you are a clean freak - look elsewhere. We killed 3 moths, and our toddler son couldn't get over rust in the tub. Also, still waiting for my cleaning deposit to be refunded. I contacted the owners 3 times without a response.
Perfect place in SF. Great location next to AMAZING restaurants. Getting to public transportation is a cinch . The amenities were fairly inclusive. I would definitely stay here again.
This studio is in a great location for public transportation to anywhere in SF. The N-Judah rail line, 6 bus and 7 bus are 1-2 blocks away.
Staying here would be a good fit for those who want to be near Golden Gate Park/explore the Inner Sunset/need to be near UCSF. The Inner Sunset neighborhood is fantastic to stay in, period, since it's not only very walkable and full of unique restaurants/shops like you'll want to visit while you're in San Francisco, but it's just far enough away from bustling downtown SF to be relaxing. The frequent trademark SF fog and park in this neighborhood are absolutely gorgeous.
The studio is very private, gets great natural light, and the garden is lovely. The space is perfect for 1-2 people, the bed cozy and warm. There are heaters in the studio you can turn on at night (or whenever) that work very well if you get a little chilly. The kitchenette is a good size, too. You have all you need in here. Would stay here again anytime!

Scan code P0171 for 1999 Lexus RX 300
My wife drives the 1999 Lexus RX 300. The check engine light came on recently. We
diagnosed with code P0171 for too lean bank 1. We did clean the MAF sensor but the
problem is still there. We also smell too much gas. I believe it does burn all gas.
However, the engine run strong and smooth. No rough idle or crap. I don't know what
to do next. Any of your advices are very much appreciated.
6 Answers
I mean the engine does not burn all gas
spray wd 40 or carb.cleaner around the intake gasket or pour a little water while the engine is running. if it makes a difference in the way it's running you may have a vacumn leak. you can do this with all your vacumn hoses and connections also.
Thanks for response. I will do it to find out if there is vacuum leak. If so, I should fix the leak and it will take care the problem, right?
just starting with whats the easiest and a likely source of problem. hopefully you'll find a simple leak and it will stop your problem.
Thanks a lot again.
I pull o2 sensor off and see how much the convetor is clogged start it up and see if the sensor hole has a lot of pressure if clear it won't be coming out very much but if a lot is coming out the convetor is clogged also needs replacing fix right away if not the converter melts it does not take long,

Ayni Education international supports girls education in Afghanistan by engaging local communities in Seattle and in Afghanistan. They are culturally aware and realistic about the situation in Afghanistan. All the money is dedicated toward serving the needs of the girls in Afghanistan. They build computer centers, schools, and teacher training centers in north eastern Afghanistan. They have impacted the lives of thousands of students. This is remarkable because they are such a small organization.
Working as a volunteer intern enabled me to truly contribute to the process. I was able to help with fundraising and spreading the news about Ayni's work in Afghanistan. I feel a deep connection to the women in Afghanistan after working for this organization. I continue to help out the organization however I can even though I no longer live in Seattle.

Nikki O'Hare has been the BEST consultant that I have ever dealt with! I have been involved myself in travel professionally for over 30 years.... Your agents on the ground in Zimbabwe 'Wild Horizons' were just excellent! Professional and efficient. A pleasure to deal with. All the arrangements that were made by you were correct, and we were met everywhere as promised. The whole trip went like clockwork!Read full trip review

A well planned itinerary that suited us down to the ground. The level of luxury seemed to increase with each new lodge or hotel that we stayed at and completing our trip at the Victoria Falls Hotel where we could relax and unwind certainly worked for us.Read full trip review
