RV Vacation Idea: Petrified Forest National Park
Everyone knows of the Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, but Arizona is also home to a lesser known but equally intriguing national park called the Petrified Forest.
The Petrified Forest holds one of the world's largest and most colorful concentrations of petrified wood. For science buffs, it holds some amazing treasures - an incredible Down Payment of petrified logs, fossils of over 200 types of plants, and fossils from a wide range of animals. Don't be surprised if you find a dinosaur track along your hike. Keep your eyes open for the large variety of living animals too!
If you're interested in geology, you'll be in awe of the Painted Desert. Carved out over millions of years, it has a fascinating display of colors. Much of the Painted Desert is located in the Navajo Nation, whose people have lived in the area for at least 500 years.
Although there is no camping in the park, there are a number of campgrounds within easy driving distances. Check out this
to get information on campsites and other useful information.

A Rogue's Life
€ 14,49
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
September 2006
BeschreibungA delightful tale of thwarted ambition and forbidden love, "A Rogue's Life" follows the fortunes of an endearing young man. Proffering his own take on picaresque storytelling--and with many a grain of truth for twenty-somethings today--this is Wilkie Collins at his entertaining best. Propelled into society by his ever-hopeful father, Frank Softly is introduced to a variety of professions in order to make his fortune. Not industrious by nature, however, Frank finds working life a challenge, and by his 25th birthday, he has failed medicine, portrait-painting, caricaturing, and even forgery. Disenchanted with life, he despairs of ever finding something to commit to--until he meets Alicia Dulcifer and her inexplicably wealthy father. The author of "The Woman in White "and "The Moonstone, " Wilkie Collins is widely regarded as the originator of the detective novel.

why would anyone rape a child? i'll never ever understand, and i don't buy this criminal's motive no matter what.
the rapist is pakistani this time and he was arrested by police for raping not 11 children as previously thought, but more than 30 boys in jleeb al-shuyoukh & farwaniya, reports al-jareeda daily.
acting to reports the suspect was arrested after several parents complained that the man took his victims to the roof of a building and raped them after threatening to stab them with a knife.
the suspect is said to have admitted to committing the crime and also showed police the knife with which he threatened his victims – he picked his victims from distant and deserted fields where boys played football, he would bribe them with money, a mobile phone or simply threaten them with his knife – the rapist also mentioned that he wore gloves and condoms to make sure not to leave a trace and often changed the crime location.
his motive? apparently he was raped several times as child and this affected him so deeply he feels the urge to rape a child every time he meets one – correct me if i'm wrong, but if someone was raped as a child he would do anything in his power to stop people from doing the same to other children, no?

Volcano Eruption Update on Hawaii Island
The exciting volcanic activity continues to evolve on Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. On March 5, 2011 several miles downslope from the summit, a new fissure erupted with a curtain of fire that rose up to eighty feet high. This eruptive phase cannot be accessed by the public, however the rangers at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park visitors center are sharing the latest videos and photographs from this site and others around the park.
Meanwhile, a short drive from the park visitors center, the glow at the summit crater, Halemaumau continues to grow and send up voluptuous clouds of steam. Many are awaiting to see if a subterranean pond of lava will soon spill out onto the crater floor.
Dramatic steam and gas has been pluming from a vent in the crater wall since March 11, 2008, representing the first eruption in Halemaumau since 1982. In its early stages, there were three small explosions – the first ones at the summit since 1924 – and the plume changed from fluffy white to dusky brown, indicating that ash had sifted into the plume. Then it returned to a snowy white, rising up to a mile above the crater.
But beginning in early September 2008, there were more small explosions and increased tremors and the vent grew from about 90 feet across to three times that size by May 2009, spreading onto the crater floor. As the levels of ash in the plume have changed, its color shifted a number of times from cottony white to various shades of grey, brown and even pink. At night, the dramatic glow from the vent kept visitors mesmerized. (The park is open 24 hours.) One night in early September 2008, lucky visitors saw blue flames shooting from the vent, though no molten lava spilled onto the crater floor.
Intrepid HVO geologists who regularly venture to the crater rim just above the vent are finding lava rocks thrown onto the crater floor and over the top of the rim. At the crater's lip just above the vent, geologists have also found "Pele's hair" (thin strands of solidified lava), and "Pele's tears" (droplets of lava rock) above the crater rim.
The first March explosions damaged the crater rim viewing platform, but that area had already been closed to visitors because of this danger, and the plume's heavy content of sulfur dioxide. Prolonged exposure to high levels of SO2 can be dangerous, especially to anyone with respiratory conditions. But as long as the customary trade winds are blowing, visitors to the rest of the park are safe. If conditions should change, park rangers will alert visitors.
Excellent viewing is still possible most days from the Thomas A. Jaggar Museum overlook. The small museum has informative volcanology exhibits and an excellent bookstore with DVDs, posters, maps, t-shirts and more — all of it contributing to our understanding of volcanoes in this extraordinary national park.
The excellent overlook at the Jaggar Museum is open, and will remain so as long as conditions permit, although the downwind stretch of Crater Rim Drive is closed off for now. Visitors can also still get stunning views of the heavy plume of steam and gas from the Volcano House hotel and along the adjacent trail.

http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/cams/KIcam/ - For a live view of Halemaumau Crater
Coastal Viewing
Meanwhile, 25 miles down to the coast at the end of Chain of Craters Road you can hike to an area where lava from Kilauea Volcano was at one time flowing into the sea. In July 2008, there were especially dramatic explosions as fiery lava burst into the sea, and from spectacular outbreaks of molten lava in remote upslope locations.
The show is currently northeast of the park on the coast at Kalapana, located at the end of Highway 130 in the Puna District. Thousands of visitors every week hike to this site to watch lava ooze across the coastal plain, then roll into the sea leaving huge clouds of steam and sprays of molten rock in its wake. The viewing area is open daily from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., with the last car permitted into the parking area at 8 p.m.
Note that volcano activity is unpredictable and can change at any time. For the very latest eruption viewing and health info, visit the U.S. Geological survey's daily update page at http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/activity/kilaueastatus.php. The local Civil Defense recorded hotline at 808-961-8093 is updated once a day. Or call the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park recorded message at 808-985-6000.

Snowplowing service a hot topic in Edmore
EDMORE — Cold weather is rapidly approaching, but the issue of snowplowing is a heated one in this village.
The Edmore Village Council was at odds at Monday night's meeting over which company to hire for snowplowing services this winter, as well as lawn mowing services next spring and summer.
Village Manager Neil Rankin recommended the council award a contract to Johnsons Seasonal Care in Edmore to snowplow the village parking lots outside of Lucky's bar and Phenix bar. Moore's Landscaping in Edmore also submitted a bid with a similar price.
Village President Chet Guild wanted to accept Moore's bid instead, noting Moore's has done the village's snowplowing for years.
"The one issue we've had with Moore's Landscaping in the past was when we (the village) did not plow, but John Moore and Moore's Landscaping had plowed," Rankin said. "Either he was plowing when we weren't plowing or not plowing when it had to be plowed.
"You know why he did that? Because nobody's ever told him that you don't plow unless there's 2 inches (of snow)," said Councilman Chuck Burr. "If you don't tell him … you gotta tell these guys that."
"He should have known that," Rankin responded. "The other thing is, we've had an issue trying to get a hold of Moore's Landscaping in the past. On his statements, he doesn't have a phone number. When Johnsons has done lawnmowing for us, they have always given us accurate billing and they always provide us with a certificate of liability so we know they are an insured business."
"What are you saying, that Moore's doesn't have liability insurance?" Guild asked.
"I'm not sure, I never got a copy of it," Rankin replied.
"Was he ever asked for a copy?" Guild asked.
"He should provide a copy as a business," Rankin replied.
"Well, like Chuck said, if you don't explain what you expect out of them, how are they gonna know?" Guild retorted.
Finance Director Tracy Clark noted that Moore's was also asked to plow in front of the village police department's garage door in the past, but failed to do so.
A motion to award the contract to Johnsons failed 3-3 with Bonnie Ashbaugh, Jerry Rasmussen and Art Schuitema voting "yes" and Ed Adams, Burr and Guild voting "no."
Councilwoman Karen Deja abstained from voting, saying she wanted more information.
"I would like to see what Mr. Moore has available and whether things are spelled out in a contract and I would also like to see if he has liability," Deja said.
"So the contract goes to Moore?" asked Guild after the motion to award the contract to Johnsons died.
Rankin informed him no, the issue will be discussed again at next month's meeting.
A related item on the table was whether to award a bid to Johnsons for mowing the lawns at Curtis Park, the Curtis Building, the ballfields and the Sunrise property. Johnsons was the lone company to submit a bid. Guild made a motion to table the issue until next spring so more bids could be submitted.
The motion to table the item was approved 4-3 with Adams, Burr, Guild and Rasmussen voting "yes" and Ashbaugh, Deja and Schuitma voting "no."
Another related item on the table was whether to award a bid to Johnsons for mowing the lawn at the old bag factory/farmers market. The Downtown Development Authority (DDA) recommended the council award the bid to Johnsons.
"Personally, again, I think we should take some bids on that too," Guild said. "We pay the bill."
Guild was informed the DDA pays the bill, not the council.
"Then why do they even come to us?" Guild asked.
Guild was informed that by law the council has to vote on DDA recommendations.
A motion to award the DDA lawnmowing bid to Johnsons was approved 4-3, with Ashbaugh, Deja, Rasmussen and Schuitema voting "yes" and Adams, Burr and Guild voting "no."
At Monday's meeting, the village council also:
• Approved offering Averyville Acres two loan payment options to repay a loan over 15 years. Rankin will write a letter to Averyville Acres with the details.
• Heard Rankin report the village will host a planning workshop from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today (Saturday).
• Approved sending $150 to the Road Commission for Montcalm County to move forward with a street in the Sunrise development. Construction will probably start next summer.
• Set trick or treating hours from 5 to 7 p.m. Oct. 31.
• Tabled a proposed $1 wage increase for Department of Public Works employee Andrew Anderson and referred the proposal to the Personnel Committee. Schuitema voted "no."
• Approved decomissioning and selling a village police car to Aaron Evans of Casair for $1,400. The Kelly Blue Book value is $2,000 to $2,300, but Rankin noted the car has 54,000 miles on it, there are holes in the plastic seat and there are electrical problems in the car.
• Approved activating a gas card account at both the Admiral and The Depot.

Originally posted on MetsZilla | Last updated 3/5/13
According to Adam Rubin of ESPN New York, New York Mets first baseman Ike Davis "is among multiple candidates being considered to be added to Team USA for the World Baseball Classic." "At this point I think there are a lot of names being considered, including Ike," the source said, according to Rubin. Photo by Michael G. Baron A spot on the clubs roster opened up after Mark Teixeira injured his right forearm while swinging in the batting cage before Tuesday's exhibition game versus the Chicago White Sox, forcing him to miss the World Baseball Classic. I'm not one to care about World Baseball Classic rosters, but I think this would be pretty cool if Ike is selected and accepts. This is a big year for Davis. Most Mets fans — including myself — are excited to see what he can do healthy, for a full season. Earlier in the spring he admitted to being very fatigued in 2012. I had to limit a lot of things last year as far as workload. I didn't have a beer all of spring training last year. I went home and laid on the couch. And I usually fish for another six hours every day [after Mets workouts]. I didn't say anything to anybody, besides maybe the trainers. …I didn't feel like myself. I wasn't the same guy on the field. Obviously, you could tell. I didn't do anything. When I play, I have the potential to make an impact. I just wasn't doing anything to help." Speaking of Team USA, David Wright drilled an RBI triple and finished the contest 1-for-2 with a walk. Team USA will play one more exhibition game before tournament play begins, Friday, March 8th when they face Mexico at Chase Field.

Hello everyone, i have a little dilema here
i was just wondering if you guys know of a place that can dyno tune? I have a Mk4 2.0T with a C2 software that isn't working at its best in other words i've had plenty of issues since the first time they flashed it. i'm still having issues as of right now and they want me to send the ECU back for another flash (third time) but now they want me to pay for shipping back and forth, which doesn't seem right since they are the ones that messed up. but is there any place around the seattle area that dyno tunes or maybe a place where they know VWs and they can dyno the car and send the logs to C2 so they can flash it with the information that i get from the dyno?
Thanks for all your help, and because we all like pictures here's one

How do you start to narrow your choices when you are looking for the right customer service solution for your group. Start by asking whether your team is large or small, and whether your needs are primarily phone based, or whether you support your customers over a variety of voice, digital and social communication channels.
Posted by Kate Leggett on April 7, 2014
During the past five years, the customer service capabilities leading vendors has matured as vendors have focused on solidifying the foundational building blocks of customer support capabilities. Vendors have folded new technologies such as social capabilities, business process management, decisioning, business intelligence, and mobility into their solutions to allow organizations to offer more-personalized customer service experiences. Vendors have also focused on different buyers – those that have to support enterprise-size teams who respond to inquiries primarily over the phone channel, and those that have to support small to mid size teams who support multichannel operations.
This maturation makes it, in a way, increasingly challenging to be confident of your technology choice. In The Forrester Wave: Customer Service Solutions For Enterprise Organizations, Q2 2014, we pinpoint the strengths of 11 leading vendors that offer solutions suitable for large and very large customer service agent teams. Here are some of our key findings:

In 2007, The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission revised the state deer management plan. The 2007 plan was the first including a focused effort to include members of the public in the decision-making process of deer management goals in Arkansas. Public meetings and focus groups provided excellent feedback about hot topics in deer management, and much of that feedback is reflected in the final plan.
Deer Management Advisory Groups
Deer management in Arkansas is a broad topic that generates a lot of passion among the deer hunting community. To address the issues involved in deer management, the AGFC formed three statewide deer management advisory groups to match the major physiographic regions of the state.
The groups represent diverse interests and backgrounds. They were a critical component in the 2007 Strategic Deer Management Plan and continue to be an excellent sounding board for management decisions based on the goals in that plan.

During the summer months instructional services librarians are involved in extensive activities which include revision and updating of teaching and class materials, computer and software upgrades and installation, testing and setup of computers and new software and databases, and other activities which support the teaching and curricular mission of the College in preparation for the academic year. These activities have priority.
Conference attendees have the use of the stand-up computer station dedicated to accessing the Snowden Library book collection. Other computers in the library may be used only if an instructional services librarian feels it is appropriate for a specific reference need and directs the user to a the community borrower sign-in at the circulation desk, where he or she can receive a temporary login and password. Computer stations are not available for non-academic information research functions such as chat rooms, general surfing of the web, or for entertainment purposes.
Computer lab use and their support is restricted to Lycoming College personnel and students unless other arrangements are made with Information Technology Services (ITS) at (570) 321-4150 for their rental, pending availability.

Student lab monitors must be present during open lab hours. They are not normally hired during the summer. Support for the computer facilities is not available from full-time staff during these months while they are working on various projects to prepare for the next academic year. This includes the shutdown, installation, rebuilding, and upgrading of lab and network equipment and software.

And so, late one evening, the Catbat became stuck in time. Once mythical–both lynx and bat, philosopher and shapeshifter–now ashes of a gnostic tarot card.
— Written for Catbat Shop by Kelley Deane McKinney
A mix between a blazer and a blanket, the Catbat cape could very well be a talisman for our uncertain times. Kat Shuford, the designer behind Catbat Shop, believes that "people of all genders and sizes should feel magical every day," and that a gorgeous wool, mohair or cashmere cape, sustainably sourced from reclaimed and recylced fabrics, and locally made in Greenpoint, has the power to conjure a charmed existence.
Less than two years ago, Shuford, an artist and website designer came up with the idea for a line of capes, and with basic sewing skills and a DIY attitude, she cobbled together a pattern and searched out a family-run fabric business based in New York. "I didn't know how to begin," she says. "But it was just, sit down and do it anyway." Her web experience allowed her to wear many hats, designing her own site and maintaining her online store. With a little luck and a lot of drive, Shuford found other people to help her along the way and came up with the prototype–one pattern that fits every body type regardless of height or gender. "I kind of did this on a self challenge," she admits. (more…)

I've decided to sell my Trailstar since I'm now using a Cricket for the vast majority of my outdoor adventures. The Trailstar has been used approximately 10-12 nights. It's in excellent condition. It has been seam sealed. It was purchased in May 2012. SOLD.
@stephen-mLocale: Way up North
Hi folks,
I recently purchased a Trailstar inner from Kevin and he me helped out by taking loads of photos, measurements and answering many questions.
Stephen, I actually decided to put the TS up for sale since I sold you the inner. I figured that it would be better to see it in the hands of someone that will take advantage of it's great features.
As for pix, I figured that everyone knows what a Trailstar looks like. If you need some, let me know.
@stephen-mLocale: Way up North
I hear you Kevin, it definitely make sense to pass it on to someone who will use it.
Best of luck with the sale :-)

A children's charity has joined angry parents in accusing Elizabeth Hurley's children's swimwear line of sexualising young girls.
"It is very disturbing to see some inappropriate items in this swimwear range," Claude Knight, the director of child protection charity Kidscape, told media in the UK.
Hurley's range for eight to 13 year old girls includes the Cheetah Cha Cha, a leopard print string bikini, and the Tweeny Polly Bikini, a ruffled two-piece. The under-8 range also includes two pieces and bikinis.
The blurring of lines between kids' and adult fashion is an issue of increasing concern to parents.
Related: Top 10 holiday activities for kids
Last month angry parents accused Australian retailer Target of selling 'trampy' clothes for young girls.
The fracas started when Ana Amini, a mother of an eight-year-old girl, complained on Target's Facebook page that she was fed up with what she considered 'age-inappropriate' clothes on offer in its stores.
Her comment has received nearly 80000 likes, and led to more parents voicing their alarm over 'tween' fashion.
Related: Celebs who have adopted
Concerned father David Clark observed that the 7+ range at Target was "awful", calling it "too adult".
"Little girls need normal gear too, they also run about, ride bikes and do the same active stuff boys do and you can't do all that in a 'little hooker' line of clothes," he commented.
Hurley launched Elizabeth Hurley Beach in 2005, determined to design a range of swimwear inspired by "sunny places like St. Tropez and St. Barth's".
As well as modelling and fashion designing, Hurley is also the owner of a 400 acre organic farm. According to her website, the 47 year old mother-of-one sells rare breed meat to top London restaurants and at her local farmer's markets.

You're not the type to tinker and expand your PC--you want something you can plug in and start using, and you're more likely to replace it someday rather than upgrade it. If this description fits you, the Gateway Essential 933 is your kind of computer. Out of the box, the Essential 933 includes a reasonable set of basic capabilities for its price tag. Along with a 933MHz Pentium III and 64MB of RAM, you get a 17-inch monitor, a DVD-ROM drive, and a nice set of speakers. In addition, this PC is very novice friendly. With a detailed instruction sheet, even newbies will have it up and running in minutes. Connections are color coded, and Gateway doesn't skimp on details like a phone cord and microphone. The manual is a generic book that covers all of Gateway's PCs, but it's thorough, well organized, and very accessible. If you're looking for a computer for typical word processing, Web browsing, small-business accounting, and other basic applications, the Essential 933 will do the job, although rather slowly. Though the system sports a 933MHz Pentium III CPU, the processor better serves to provide a nice big number for Gateway's marketing department than as a real indicator of performance. In fact, a number of PCs running at a mere 800MHz bested the Essential 933 in our performance tests. (And we tested with 128MB RAM for benchmark consistency--this configuration is only available with 64MB. With less memory, expect performance to degrade even further.) The lackluster performance is a result of a combination of factors. The Essential has no dedicated video card, instead using the video capabilities built into its Intel chipset. This provides enough power for typical productivity applications, but gamers and other power users will definitely be disappointed. Also, this model uses slower 100MHz memory; the pricier 933plus model uses faster PC133 RAM. Finally, the small Quantum Fireball hard drive is rather pokey.
As a DVD player, it performs admirably, although you'll have to drop the screen resolution to 800 by 600 or the DVD player shows only a black screen. The monitor has a 15.9-inch viewable area and looks good at 1,024-by-768 resolution; a low refresh rate at its top resolution of 1,280 by 1,024 makes viewing uncomfortable. The bundled Boston Acoustics BA265 speakers are better than you'd expect, providing surprisingly rich audio. The compact case can be configured for either tower or desktop use. In tower mode, the CD-ROM (or, in our case, the optional DVD-ROM) drive is vertical, which forces you to set retaining clips every time you swap discs. The tool-free case is extremely easy to open. Inside, you'll find one available memory slot and two open PCI slots; all three drive bays are already filled. The PCI slots have very little room around them, and we couldn't even squeeze a half-sized SCSI card in the cramped case--the back of the case obstructed the card's bracket. There are five USB ports, two of which are used by the keyboard and mouse. Ports are otherwise limited to parallel and SVGA, with a serial port conspicuously absent. Among the useful titles included in the software bundle are Microsoft Works Suite 2001 (which includes Word and Money), Quicken, and Norton Antivirus. The warranty only lasts a year. Of course, if you're looking for expansion potential, Gateway has plenty of traditional full-sized models. But if you're looking for a basic system for productivity and family use, and price is more of a factor than performance, the Gateway Essential 933 fits the bill.
When I thought that the Pentium III from Intel at 1GhZ was the best you could get, boy was I wrong. I decided to purchase a new computer for my mother's work, and she needed the best there was. So after having a good experience with my Gateway G6-350 and Astro, I decided to purchase one of these new systems from Gateway. After using it numerous times, here's what I found with it: Price: The price for this system was £2500. It actually is a great price! It came with a monsterous 60 gigabyte hard drive, DVD player (high-end), 2 frontal USBs, VX900 monitor, and much more! Plus, you also get the great service and customer support from Gateway country! I found the price to be just incredible! The Gateway Performance 1500xl is well worth it. Gateway has great prices and warranties for their PCs. Customer Support: Gateway country has very friendly service. I find their customer support to be the best there is. Everyone that I talked to helped me out with any of my problems, and they went out of their ways just to help me out. Gateway simply has the best customer support there is. Installation: Installation is very easy. There is a very detailed instruction manual on installing the Gateway Performance 1500xl. A great feature that I noticed about it is that there are 2 frontal USB ports. That makes hooking up scanners or printers very easy. Installing the computer for me was quite simple, but if you have trouble installing computers, then you should call a proffesional to install it for you. Durability: The Gateway Performance 1500xl is built tough. It will not break for a long time. I have never had a bad problem with a Gateway DESKTOP computer. They are built very strong, you can hit em', and nothing will happen =) It will proudly last you for many years to come. Software: The Gateway Performance 1500xl came with a lot of software that was perfect. It 1st came pre-installed with Windows Millenium
Edition. Then it also included Microsoft Small Buisiness 2000, which is an exceelent program that in stores is also quite pricy. Then there was Kodak Picture It, Intuit Quicken 2000, and other programs that were similar to those. Processor and Speed: The Gateway Performance 1500xl came with a Pentium 4 processor which is brand new! I just heard of it after I saw it online. The speed was just incredible! I haven't seen anything as fast as the Gateway Performance 1500xl in my life! A clock speed of 1.5GhZ which is an equivelent to 1500MhZ, that's just purely incredible. This is the fastest computer on the market that I have currently seen. Ease of Use: The Gateway Performance 1500xl uses Windows ME (Millenium Edition). It is very simple to use. The 2 frontal USB ports make using external devices easy. Installation along with the customer support make it even easier to get started. This is a win win situation, you can't go wrong here. The Gateway Performance 1500xl is as easy to use as any PC on the market. Sound: I got a Boston Acoustics BA635 system with my Gateway Performance 1500xl. I personally love those speakers! They are very low priced, and you get superior sound from them. The Gateway Performance 1500xl is a pure music machine, I downloaded Winamp for it, and the sound that I get is incredible! Video: I purchased a Gateway VX900 monitor for it. The video effects are great! The colors are very bright, and the pixels are well mixed. The video effects on the Gateway Performance 1500xl are great! The movies load very fast, and they run very smoothly. I was amazed with the video effects with this computer. Hard Drive Space: The Gateway Performance 1500xl comes with a monsterous 60GB hard drive! That's huge! The hard drive on my Gateway G6-350 is only 9.7GB. You can fit very many things on this computer, from MP3s to .PDF files! You can fit it all! The Gateway Performance 1500xl has so
much hard drive space in it, it feels like it will never run out! Memory and Ram: 128MB of RAM is very good. That will keep your system running very fast and all. The Gateway Performance 1500xl wont be lagging for a very long time, it will keep chugging at very high speeds for a very long time. The Gateway Performance 1500xl is loaded with huge amounts of internal power. It's like putting a 400HP diesel onto a VW Beetle, that's truly how powerful this PC is. The Verdict: The Gateway Performance 1500xl is probably the best PC ever built! I'm glad to own one, not very many people actually know that the Pentium 4 exists. The Gateway Performance 1500xl is loaded with massive amounts of power, it will last for a very long time. This computer will put you into the fast lane, and its quality is incredible. Gateway is a very trusted company, that's customer support is probably the best that I have ever seen. It comes loaded with quality software, and loaded with a huge hard drive. The DVD-ROM is also a great feature, you'll be able to watch DVDs on this computer. I have done so, and the DVD quality was great becuase of the Gateway Performance 1500xl's video performance. £2500 is a great price for such a computer, if you need a computer from heaven, then this baby is for you.
I bought my Performance 600 system 14 months ago after considerable research into prices/quality from published sources. The sales team ( Irish ) were charming and helpful, but not easy to get hold of to discuss optional upgrades to basic systems. However, we finally settled for the required specs and waited 2 weeks for delivery as promised. The system ws easy to connect with good basic instructions and worked without hitch immediately. Within a couple of months, we started getting problems with Windows error message ' this application has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down ' with a load of hex addresses shown, which were meaningless to us. Gateways tech help attempted to help, but with little success, and suggested a 'Snapshot' restore. We did this without any improvement, and have lived with this problem since. We don't know if it's a Windows 98 S.E. problem or not. 13 months after purchase, the monitor lost picture after some kind of 'crackling' noise from inside the case and refused to work thereafter. Despite only being a month over warranty, Gateway refused to even contemplate any 'Goodwill gesture' towards replacement, and referred me to a repairer they recommended in Essex who told me the repair cost would be almost as much as a replacement ( £150 )...I declined !! I would endorse the opinion elsewhere in this forum, that the monitors are poor grade for the price charged.
Is this a good quality PC or is it just too expensive to what it actually offers? Well let me tell you. I have a Gateway 2000 P5-120. It's only 120MHz and only 16mb of Ram with a 1.5GB hard drive. My father bought it 6 years ago for the whole family to use and at that time this was a high spec pc. But if you compare that to todays PC's then it's just plain trash. Well todays PC crash too many times and freeze up too many times. Take TIME for instance. My friend has had to change his TIME computer 3 times now because it keeps on breaking down. It's either the motherboard breaking or the power supply. It's a new story everytime that repeats itself on different victims. But take Gateway for example. Our PC cost £1600 with 3 years warranty. And up to now it hasn't broken down once. It may be a bit slow but that's not the point. A PC has to be reliable and out of all the PC's i've used, i have found Gateway to be most reliable. You may see ads on TV with low price PC's and a free digital camera with a free printer and scanner running on a fast pentium 3 with 20gb hard drive all for a low price of £699.99 and you may think "wow that's cheap" and your most probably going to buy that PC or a similar CHEAP PC. Well think about it. Why is it cheap? Ask the sales person. Ask him "why a Gateway PC running at 900MHz with 10GB hard drive and 64MB ram is more expensive than a TINy, TIME etc. computer that offers 1.5GHz with a 40GB hard drive and 128MB ram with a printer, scanner and digital camera?" He'll most probably say "don't know" or might say that Gatewat are ripping you off only because of the commission he will get by selling that PC to you. He would never say "It's because Gateway have a high reputation in offering great quality PC's with a high quality customer support". If your going to get a PC and your on a budget then do yourself a fa
vour and save money to buy a more expensive PC that offers maybe lower quality performance but a high quality service. Once my computer was infected by 7 viruses which I had under control until something went wrong, and I was only testing a software I made on them. My Desktop disappeared. The start button and evrything else disappeared and everytime I entered my password to log on, an error message came up (after logging on) saying that I have to reinstall Windows. Well with important documents and over 500 telephone numbers stored their was no chance of me doing that before they were saved. I managed to back up all by myself by getting pressing the windows button on my keyboard instead of logging on to access all my files and use my computer in a weird twisted way. Anyway after backing up i had no clue on formatting the computer and installing drivers and a hell of a lot of other things. Anyway for 5 straight long hours i was on the phone with Gateway technical support in america but it was a free phone number so i wasn't bothered. They talked be through everything. And when I had to wait for something long to load etc. we basically had a normal conversation about computers. They were very friendly, funny and most importantly helful. My computer is now running better than before. That's what you call technical support. Anyway to end this opinion, what I'm trying to say is that don't be fooled by companies trying tricking you into buying cheap computers that can't tell the difference from RAM and ROM...use your commen sense and buy a descent computer from one of the bigger and more powerful companies like Gateway that focus on the customer and not money. Gateway website: www.gw2k.co.uk (You can build your own PC their as well). Hope this has been useful
Having not bought a PC for 3 years, I decided it was time to move on to bigger and faster things. We really didn't research any of the other computer company's out there, just went ahead and bought a gateway. We really never heard anything bad about them. We are very pleased with our new computer and the speed compared to my old 200 Mhz, 2.6 Gb is beyond compare! I am also very pleased with the Boston Accoustic speakers. They sound really good. It has a superb graphics card, well capable for any of my kids games, so they are happy as well. The space is more than adequate, and I doubt we will ever fill the hard drive. That was the main problem with my old computer, where I was constantly deleting stuff to save space. Overall, the 600 MHz by Gateway is a superb computer, and has helped to improve my view of Gateway, particularly by their superb customer help when purchasing and then when I ran into a few problems later on. Overall, Gateway is superb so buy your computers from them!!!
I would like to introduce a new member to my growing computer family. This is the Gateway Performance-933. I already own a Gateway GP- 350mhz Intel Pentium 2, and a custom built AMD K-6 350mhz. Both computers are comparable in speed and stability. I decided to add this computer because my small home office is growing, and my computer needs are increasing. Why did I go with Gateway? I went with Gateway because of the past performance of my old computer. It has been almost rock solid, and when I did have a problem Gateway Tech Support was very helpful, courteous, and knowledgeable. I have learned a lot from them. I placed my order with Gateway, and received my new computer within 4 days. Gateway has really surprised me with this computer. It is everything the salesman said and more. I have had this computer now for about 1 month. It is fast, stable, and reliable. Set-up was easy, and on startup everything went smoothly. I did however have to turn the floppy drive on. All the basic software was pre-installed. They even included a poster of the computer with simple to understand color-coded instructions. So what does it come with? The Gateway performance-933 comes with: Windows ME (Millennium edition) This is Microsoft?s new home operating system. There are some new features with this OS. They include Auto Update, Enhanced Digital Media Features, Digital video with Movie Maker, Digital music with Windows Media Player 7.0, Internet Explorer 5.5, Home Networking Wizard, Internet Connection Sharing, System Restore, System File Protection. This system runs smoothly, with no lock ups. On boot up you are into Win ME in about 5 to 10 seconds. Windows ME still looks like Win 98, about the only real visible difference is the boot up Window, and the Start programs button instead of getting a list of all the programs, it has a list of the most recently accessed programs. There are some disadvantages. First it is not desig
ned to run Business Applications, and Microsoft is apparently trying to do away with DOS. I did however find the MS DOS Comand prompt hidden in the accessories folder. I am still debating whether to continue running this operating system or install the Win 98 SE OS. Gateway 5 Bay mid tower case, 3 of the bays are full size 5.25?, and the other two are 3.5?, and it has 3 internal 3.5? bays. It has a power button with no reset. 200 watt power supply with a switchable 120VAC and 240VAC operation, and a fan. The dimensions of the case are 18.82"H x 7.32"W x 17.24?D. Two PS2, One Serial, One VGA, One Parallel, and Two USB ports 5 PCI and 1 AGP Expansion Slots Modem 56k V.90, Win/Fax Modem This modem functions fairly well, with the system. I have yet to have a dropped connection, and seem to communicate well with the servers. I have not had any modem driver problems so far. Hard Drive 40GB 7200RPM Ultra ATA100 hard drive (actually 38GB are available. It came with 2 GB already used.) Integrated Ultra ATA Controller Intel Pentium III Processor 933MHz with Advanced Transfer Cache This is a real nice speedy processor. I am not sure what the Advanced Transfer Cache means, and I have not been able to find what size cache it has in the system information. But it must have at least 512K if not 1 cache. The processor is an Intel 815e with ICH2. Memory 256MB 133MHz SDRAM (2-128 modules) This is a $200.00 upgrade The base system in this category comes with 128MB SDRAM and is upgradeable to 512MB. Network Card 3COM 10/100 Ethernet 3COM PCI 10/100 Twisted Pair Ethernet Card features a single slot 32-bit half card measuring 3.375? height x 4.75? length. This card has 10 or 100 Mbps network operation with auto selection, three status LEDs, remote wake up and PCI interface with automatic configuration. Supports the Desktop Management Interface (DMI). The card also supports Novell, Win
95-98 and windows for work groups. Mitsubishi Diamondtron Color VX920 19" (18" viewable) Monitor This was a £150 upgrade The quality of the images displayed on this monitor is crisp and clear. This is a real nice step up from the Gateway EV 17? monitor. The colors are much nicer, and higher detailed. This monitor is capable of 640 x 480 resolutions, unlimited colors, and refresh rates of 50 to 140Hz. Sound Blaster Live! With Digital Audio Output sound system. Speakers Boston Acoustics BA735 Digital Speakers w/Subwoofer This is a nice sound combination. The speakers have a tremendous sound compared to their size. Application Software, Microsoft Works Suite 2000 with Microsoft Word and Encarta, A Cd-rom of Win ME. Gateway system restoration disk, which contains back up of Nortons Anitvirus, phone software, modem, video, sound, mouse and keyboard drivers, etc. Video 32MB ATI RADEON AGP Graphics with TV-Out and DVI, This is a really nice video setup, my sons games don?t lock up, also windows and graphic display quickly. Multi-function Keyboard, This Keyboard is basically Gateways standard keyboard, the keys have a nice feel, the added features to the keyboard are the Cd player controls, volume, mute, and messages, phone, TV and Radio, and sleep buttons. The only thing I have noticed different from my other Gateway keyboard is a Help button. Microsoft Intellimouse and Gateway Mouse Pad, This mouse is exactly the same as the mouse they send me with my other Gateway. It has the right and left buttons, and scroll wheel. Each of these can be easily configured through the software. Norton Anti-Virus Software I have to say I am glad that gateway is now using Norton?s antivirus software. I did not like the McAffee antivirus that came on the other Gateway, I found it next to impossible to update the .DAT files. Norton?s is much easier and the server seems to be more stable.
3.5" 1.44MB diskette drive floppy drive This is a drive I use very rarely but on the occasions I have, it performs like any other floppy drive I have ever had any experience with. What can I say it is a floppy drive. DVD 16X/40X DVD-ROM Drive This was a screw up at Gateway. I had ordered a 20X/48X CD-ROM. I called Customer support and they were very puzzled at first but they are sending out the CD-ROM I had originally ordered and will have a tech come and install it for me. I can tell you though the DVD drive does play DVD movies very nicely, the software is very user friendly, and it is a fairly fast drive. I do plan to add a new Plextor Plexwriter 12/10/32 CD-RW in the near future. IOMEGA 250MB Internal zip drive and 1 zip disk This is a £50 upgrade. I have an internal Iomega 100 MB zip drive in the other gateway, and I have always been very happy with it. The 250MB-zip drive is really nice. The added disk space is welcome, since I fill up the 100MB disks rather quickly. This computer comes with a 3 Year Limited Warranty and 1 Year On-Site Service. Limited Hardware & Software Tech Support as long as you own your system. In Conclusion This computer has just about every feature anyone would ever want in a home computer. The speed really amazes me compared to the 350mhz pent11, which it runs circles around. The 32MB graphics hold up well to all of my sons memory hungry games. I never have to sit and wait for anything to open. High resolution scans seem to be processed quickly. The 19? inch monitor is absolutely wonderful, I now have plenty of space to do my graphics work. The OS is rock solid so far. Knock on wood, I have yet to have an illegal operation, but of course I haven?t put some of my other software on this system yet, such as Corel, Photoshop, since I am unsure of how compatible they will be. I have also yet to network the computers together since I am not sure WIN ME and WIN 98 are going to work
together. I am really pleased with this computer. The £1500 purchase price is reasonable when you think about all that you get in this great package. Now please call the 999 this baby is on fire because its so fast!
I bought a Gateway Performance 500 about a year ago, when a 500MHz processor was pretty impressive. Of course, clock speeds have gone up by a factor of 2 since then (as they always do). However, my computer is still perfectly up to the job. I had always been impressed by the range of options offered by Gateway, and since they have a good reputation, I decided in advance to go for a Gateway. I was able to choose the system I wanted through their website, tailoring it to fit my needs. As an added bonus, ordering it through their website saved me around £35 on delivery charges. One year on, the PC is still going strong, I haven't had any major problems with it at all. Performance is still perfectly adequate for what I need, and as I chose a 20GB hard drive (before they became commonplace), I still have masses of storage space to play about with. One thing to consider when you're buying a new PC is the sound setup. Most people will simply opt for the standard speakers, but it's worth spending a little more to get a really top-class setup. I spent about an extra £30 to upgrade to a Boston Acoustics speaker set, with 2 satellite speakers and a subwoofer. This is extremely impressive, and makes listening to CDs, MP3s and DVDs a pleasurable experience, instead of the tinny speakers commonly used for most PCs. Never having needed to call on Gateway's customer services, I cannot comment on how good they are in that respect. However, I can say I would certainly go for another Gateway computer, maybe in a couple of years time when clock speeds are hitting the 4GHz mark...
The gateway machines that I've had experience of in the past have been none too shabby at all. The only real problem I've had is that the quality/price ratio leaves a little to be desired. What I've found is that you end up with cheap onboard components or out-of-date chipsets driving poor quality peripherals. Cheap monitors and dodgy printers. There's nothig wrong with all of this at all. Some people can only afford the cheaper stuff which is just dandy. But when you're paying premium prices for it it's a different matter. It'd also be acceptible IF you were getting great support free of charge. But to say the support is good would be like saying the whipped cream has enough body to prop up a car. Nonsence basically. Final comment? Not worth the money you pay for them!
Just bought the Gateway 850, all in all a good machine. Delivery was OK although they will only deliver to the address on the credit card you are paying with, good for security bad for convenience in some cases. The screen is great with easy to operate controls, keyboard and mouse good quality. The pre-installed software is configured well, but it would have been better for me to have office pro installed rather than buying it later as PowerPoint and Microsoft Access is not included. The tower version is massive. Good for expansion but it does take up lots of space under the desk. I bought the CD-R as an option and (got it added at an incremental £40 not £150 ish they wanted to charge) I stepped up from a 233 running win 95 to windows and office 2000. The computer does feel a little crisper and the increased performance in terms of graphics is considerable. In terms of the everyday tasks like e-mail, excel and word not really much difference. The thing that does disappoint me with such a powerful processor is the hardisk seek time, which slows the machine up considerably. I was using a pretty fast SCSI on my old machine and I think I will be moving this drive over to my new PC.

Court rejects Chandra's plea for modification of order
The court, while dismissing Chandra's plea, said that December 20, 2012 was "neither a regular bail order nor an anticipatory bail order".
New Delhi: A Delhi court has dismissed a plea of Zee Group Chairman Subhash Chandra for modifying a court's order directing him to take its prior permission before going abroad in a case of alleged Rs 100 crore extortion bid from MP Naveen Jindal's firm by the two editors of the news channel.
Additional Sessions Judge Daya Prakash said this condition was imposed on Chandra for the purpose of facilitating the pending investigation in the case of alleged extortion bid by Zee News Editor Sudhir Chaudhary and Zee Business Editor Samir Ahluwalia.
The court, after hearing the arguments, dismissed the plea saying, "it is informed that applicant Subhash Chandra is not cooperating with investigation agencies and is also not giving clear and unambiguous answers put by the investigation agency."
"The application filed by the applicant/accused Subhash Chandra for modification in the order dated December 20, 2012 is dismissed," the judge said. Chandra had approached the court for modification of order passed on December 20, 2012 in which Delhi Police was told to give 10 working days time to Chandra and his son
if it wanted to arrest them in connection with the case and had also imposed a condition on Zee Group chairman that he will not leave the country without its prior permission.
Seeking waiver of the condition imposed on him, Chandra's counsel argued that his client was implicated in the case merely because he is the head of the company and filing of such applications for going abroad has wasted "precious time" of the court as well as the advocates.
He also told the court that after December 20, 2012 order, Chandra has joined the probe and has gone abroad five times after taking permission of the court. The lawyer argued that the order should be modified with condition that Chandra will only inform the court about his foreign trips.
The police had opposed Chandra's plea saying the condition cannot be modified as it was not a bail order. The court, while dismissing the plea, said that December 20 last year order was "neither a regular bail order nor an anticipatory bail order".
"Hence, it is not a bail order at all rather it is an order with respect to giving 10 days notice in the event of arrest. In such situation, the condition was imposed as there was investigation pending," it said. The judge also observed that,"the condition was for the purpose of facilitating the pending investigation against the accused as there was allegation that accused Subhash Chandra is ultimately beneficiary to illegal demand of Rs 100 crore from the complainant which condition cannot be changed or removed."
The court on December 20, 2012 had passed the order while disposing of the anticipatory bail plea of Chandra and his son, Puneet Goenka, managing director at Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd.
The Delhi Police had earlier told the court that Chaudhary and Ahluwalia have not acted alone and the whole episode was planned in collusion with seniors of Zee Group in a conspiracy hatched to extort Rs 100 crore for their channel. Both Chaudhary and Ahluwalia, who were arrested by Delhi Police on November 27, were granted bail on December 17.
They have been booked under section 384 (extortion), 420 (cheating), 120 B (criminal conspiracy) and 511 (punishment for attempting to commit offences punishable with life or other imprisonment) of the IPC.
