I'm home today with a sick daughter, and the wife is out. 99% of the time I'm not home at this time, and either the wife is home alone, my daughter may be home alone, or they are home together. My wife has a bad habit of slinging the door open to find out who is knocking, even though I've warned her of the danger involved.
To counteract that, I've been researching a secure storm/screen door to install that will allow the front door to be opened, yet still provide security. I haven't been successful yet. I did install an intercom system, which will help IF she will use it. Haven't had occasion to test her on that yet as far as I know. Sometimes she'll ignore a knock, sometimes she'll sling the door wide open. It depends on her mood. Not smart, I know, but you can't force other people to make good decisions, even life-saving decisions, if they refuse to acknowledge any danger.
I also installed a city-approved "No Solicitors" sign by our front door that CAN'T be missed. Note: it's a "no solicitors" sign, not just a "no sales" sign. "Solicitors" to me covers anybody except city officials and LEO. IMO it also covers any religious folks knocking for any reason.
So I hear a knock. Not the doorbell, which works fine. Just a light knock. (I have no intention of answering the door--all our friends, coworkers, and friendly neighbors have our phone numbers and know to call first rather than just showing up--and I'm curious to see what might happen on a normal day when I'm not home.) I slip upstairs and go to a front bedroom where I can look outside. I can't see who is at the door because we have a little inset covered area. I do have a front-door peep-hole, but if I walk up to it, the guys outside will probably hear the floor creaking. So I wait. After a minute or two, another light knock. I just wait. Daughter is in bed sick, so she's not moving around. Note: no strange cars are parked out front, nor did I hear any cars or car doors previous to the knock.
I have heard of burglars who will knock to see if anyone is home, and if not, sometimes circle around back to gain entry. That's what I was watching for. I was wearing bottom sweats, a hoody sweatshirt, and socks. But since I'm ALWAYS armed at home, I already had what I needed on me. If I'm not in pants, I wear a dual-holster SmartCarry with a .45 and a .357 snubby in it. So I had my .45 in my hand in case the front door got kicked in.
Something else I've learned from this forum is to always carry my cell phone on me or have it close by at night. I think I learned this initially from Janq, but I've heard others mention it since. So I had my phone in one hand and my .45 in the other, just waiting.
Eventually I see 2 adult males come from my porch area. One is a white male, 30's, with a 3/4 trench coat on, and carrying a soft, thin case of something. The other is an African-American male, 40's, with a 3/4 trench coat on, a broad-brimmed hat on (something we rarely see in this neighborhood), and also carrying a soft, thin case.
In the 13 years we've lived here, we've had a few Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses knock, usually once every year or two. None have ever been as old as these guys. And I've never seen an African-American Mormon or JW around here. Yeh, they probably exist... just saying I haven't seen any.
So these guys walk in my front yard and disappear out of my sight. (Remind me to cut down that evergreen tree so I can see the corner of our house better.) I'm not sure if they are circling my house, so I wait and watch for awhile. Eventually I'm convinced they went on down the block.
Here's my point. 99% of the time I wouldn't be home at 11 a.m. on a weekday. The wife, or the daughter, or both would be. That's the same with most houses in my neighborhood. We're mostly all working-class, with a few retirees thrown in. If someone is selling something, what woman in her right mind would open the door to two strange men, much less invite them in? (It's about 40 degrees out now, so opening the door very long will cool the house down quickly.)
And the same point for any religious folks: is it proper to send two males out to a neighborhood that is predominantly female at the time?
For either salemen or religious folks, I don't think it's ethical. No matter their purpose, if they want to talk to the most people possible, they should come in the early evening.
So the longer I thought about it, the angrier I got about them ignoring my "No Solicitors" sign. So I called the non-emergency number of our local police. I first ask if the "No Solicitors" sign means anything (is it enforceable). "Yes," she said, "it does mean something."
Me: Well, I've got the sign on my door, and two guys just ignored it.
Her: What do they look like?
Me: One white male, one African-American male, 30's-40's, 3/4 length trench coats, one with a broad-brimmed hat.
Her: What color are their clothes?
Me: I don't know. They had coats on.
Her: Where are they now?
Me: They walked west of my house.
Her: What color clothes do they have on?
Me: I DON"T KNOW, I couldn't see their clothes because of the trench coats. There THE ONLY TWO GUYS walking around the neighborhood right now. You can't miss them.
Her: What are they wearing?
Me: TRENCH COATS.
Her: What color?
Me: I DON'T KNOW...........(long pause because apparently she's GOT TO HAVE a color :rolleyes:)... neutral colors, colors that don't stand out.
Her: What is your address?
Me: They're in the X-hundred block of XXXXX.
Her: Do you want to speak to an officer when he arrives?
Me: No. I'd just like these guys checked out, and reminded of "No Solicitors" sign.
Her: Okay, we'll send someone over.
In about 5 minutes a cruiser rolled by my house headed in the direction of the guys. About 5 minutes later, a different police vehicle rolled by in the same direction.
Good response time for a non-emergency, IMO. No complaints there. I called the police station later and thanked them for responding, and asked what they had found. She said they were unable to locate the subjects. :frown:
I'm really annoyed at these guys for ignoring my sign, and knocking on my door at a time when I'm almost never home. Here's a thought that popped in my head as I was waiting for the police to arrive. I wonder if it would have been better in some ways to answer the door with a gun on my hip (and one in hand behind my back :ticking:) and ask them why they didn't read and follow the sign. I realize that would have marked my house as one with at least one gun, but it also might have marked my house as one to avoid if they were looking to rob an empty house, or if they were trying to avoid the male of the family. (Note: our vehicles are always inside the garage, so no one can tell whether we are home or not by the vehicles outside.) I thought about opening the door, letting the pre-alarm ding, and tell them they have 20 seconds before the police are automatically summoned, now WHAT DO YOU WANT, and WHY DIDN'T YOU READ THE SIGN?
Being always armed saves time. I didn't have to go looking for a weapon. If the guys had kicked in the door instead of knocking, there would have been a delay in me getting a weapon if I didn't have it (them) on me already. My guns are either on me or locked up, so it would have taken a few seconds to get to them and unlock them. Any guns upstairs would not have been accessible without going through any intruders due to the storage location at the other end of the house. Any guns downstairs would have been accessible only after I unlocked the storage item. The guys also would have been much closer to my daughter than I was at the time.
Having a phone on me was a good thing. I didn't have to go searching for it at the other end of the house.
I didn't have the police numbers programmed into my phone. While I could always have dialed 911, I might get a little faster response time by calling the dispatcher myself. I don't know, that's just a guess.
I don't normally carry a spare mag when I'm in exercise pants. Perhaps I had enough ammo for a home invasion: 14 .45's and a snub. I know, I know... shot placement.
My stinkin' shotgun hasn't come in yet. It's been on order for months. Maybe I should forget the 590 and just go buy a 500 or an 870.
Note to police: thanks for responding.
Note to door knockers, whoever you are: READ THE DAMN SIGN, and STAY OFF MY PROPERTY. I don't need your religion, if that's what you were here for. I attend church fairly regularly (in spite of my sometimes bad language :embarassed:), I probably have more Bible versions that most of you solicitors. (I know, I know: it's not what you have or read, it's what you apply.) In closing, STAY AWAY FROM MY FAMILY, especially when I'm not around.
Some of you will think I'm paranoid. I'm good with that. In fact, if no one thinks I'm paranoid, then I'm not being careful enough. :smile:
Any comments?
Oh, and if you're going to visit, call first. :smile:

We just knew (ok, we hoped and prayed!) that when the news broke that celebrity makeup artist Sam Fine would be joining Fashion Fair as its Creative Makeup Director, that a line of cosmetics created by the beauty guru would soon follow.
Lucky for us, that day has finally arrived! Given Sam Fine's status as the authority on brown girl beauty (see my posts here and here) and Fashion's Fair iconic legacy of creating beauty products for women of color, a collaboration was a no-brainer. Of all the changes, updates and product releases of Fashion Fair's recent overhaul, this collection was the most highly anticipated! I recently made my way to a Fashion Fair counter to check out the collection. Let's take a look!
These gorgeous Sam Fine Supreme Color Lipsticks, $22 each. As you can see from the photo, each shade is equally rich and pigmented and has a lovely sheen. This collection of lipsticks is so perfectly and thoughtfully edited, there isn't a shade here that isn't wearable. On the left from top to bottom are Champagne Toast, African Violet, Whispering Rose and Deep Suede. On the right from top to bottom are Cognac, Pink Parfait, Dynasty Red and Moroccan Spice. Love, love, love! With these eight shades you have the perfect red, brights, nudes, pinks and vampy shades for every brown girl. You can't go wrong with any of these!
Can we pause for a moment so I can share with you the foolery of my experience at Macy's? Ok, thanks. So, a sales associate from a different counter had to come over to help me and it was like pulling teeth, y'all. The sales lady first told me to just look at the lipsticks through the plexiglass case and tell her which ones I wanted to buy. *blank stare* On what planet does a person buy cosmetics in a department store without getting to try it on first? Upon my insistence she found some testers behind the counter. In her campaign to be as extra as possible, she would only bring out one shade at a time and I had to give it back before I could see another. *sigh*
When I asked if she could disinfect one of the shades so I could try it on, she whipped out a Q-tip, swiped it across the lipstick and handed me that dusty little stick like I was really supposed to do something with it. I inquired if that was how customers tested lipsticks at her counter, to which she responded "No". Of course not. I decided then and there to purchase my items elsewhere. I mean, have you ever heard of such? Ok, rant over. Back to the beauty!
In the above photo is a swatch of the Sam Fine Supreme Lip Gloss in Canary Diamond, $20. It's a pretty, sheer gloss with a fine golden shimmer. You could easily wear it alone, but I think it would make a great layering shade over any of the lipsticks for added shine and dimension.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to try either of the Sam Fine Supreme Eyeshadow Quads, $38, thanks to the Tester Police. Which was particularly disappointing since I was looking forward to getting my hands on Amalfi Coast. As you can (sort of) see in the photo, Amalfi Coast contains warm, earth tone shades while Tunisian Nights contains cooler, jewel toned shades. For now, you'll have to do as I did and admire these quads through the plexiglass case, lol.
Of the items I was able to try, I fell instantly in love. I have zero sense of moderation, so naturally I wanted to take them all home, lol. What I loved most was how thoughtfully created the collection was. There were no random, one-off shades to be found. Mr. Fine's collection is an entire color wardrobe, with the essential shades you'd need to create any beauty look. Congrats Sam on such a beautiful collection! The collection is officially on my birthday wish list, so friends and family, take note! LOL!
You can purchase the Sam Fine Fashion Fair Collection now on FashionFair.com. Be sure to follow Sam on Twitter @SamFineBeauty where he regularly drops beauty gems and behind the scenes peeks into his glamorous work. Have you seen or tried any of the items in the Sam Fine Fashion Fair collection? If so, please share in the comments!

Preparation and hydrogenation characteristics of Mg–30 wt.% Ti37.5V25Cr37.5 composite
Hu, Y.Q., Yan, Cheng, Zhang, H.F., Ye, Lin, & Hu, Z.Q. (2004) Preparation and hydrogenation characteristics of Mg–30 wt.% Ti37.5V25Cr37.5 composite. Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 375(1-2), pp. 265-269.
|PDF (691kB)
AMg–30 wt.% Ti37.5V25Cr37.5 hydrogen storage compositewas successfully synthesized by reactive mechanical milling of a mixture of magnesium and Ti37.5V25Cr37.5 powder in a hydrogen atmosphere. The structural evolution during milling and after hydrogen absorption/desorption cycling was analyzed using XRD. The absorption/desorption rates and storage capacity at different temperatures were evaluated. By analysing the variation of the Avrami exponent, the hydrogenation mechanisms during milling process were also estimated. A large hydrogen storage capacity and excellent absorption/desorption kinetics were achieved in this composite.

SMG Shudder in 1st Gear
Hi all,
I have done quite a bit of searching on this but not found a definite answer. I own a 2003.5 M3 SMG and when accelerating from a dead stop i occasionally get a shudder and a quiet thunk seeming to come from the drivers side wheel well around 800-1000 rpm. Using sport mode seems to make this a bit better (probably because the rpms raise quicker).
I wondered if any other local M3 SMG owners can comment on this as solutions on the forums seem to range from SMG resets, new clutches/flywheels to its normal, deal with it.
I'm not sure what the "thunk" is, yet I get a ~500 rpm drop from idle when accelerating in 1st gear. Its not consistent, and there's a million posts on M3Forums with various suggestions yet no definitive answer. Do your RPMs suddenly drop?
I don't think is smg related, more the suspension play noise?
Thanks for the replies guys. I havent noticed any RPM drops. Is the only way to check the suspension to put it up on a lift? The PO had a set of Bilstein Coilovers installed before I bought it. I dont know if that would make a difference.
lift the wheels and shake 3 and 9 position for steering, 12 and 6 for the bearings
see turnin wheels in the air makes that noise
thanks i poked around under there with a flash light but couldnt see anything obvious. i guess the next step is to lift er up and try that out. ill let u know what i find this weekend since i dont have at jack at my place here ill head out to my dads.
on a side note i got my first speeding ticket on my way back from the ferries testing it out in west van...ghost car w/lazer detector :(
what do you drive in mostly S1-S6?
I have that shudder once in a while, drive the car rough for a bit in S5/S6 and it should go away
if not, can always try a SMG reset (via holding down both paddle shifts at ~40mph+) so the computer can re-calibrate to the amount of life your clutch has
I am mostly in S3-S4. I'll give the higher settings a try and try out the SMG reset too. Thanks all for your suggestions.
I get the same shudder in first gear occasionally. Ive had it since I bought the car a few years ago. No idea what it is.
I tried the SMG reset and it seems to have cured the shudder. Still getting the noise from my front driver suspension starting from a standstill so I'm going to take it and get looked at. Doesnt seem bad but better safe than sorry I guess.
I did the SMG reset by holding both paddles going over 40MPH and it seems to have completely cured the shudder. That was easy :)
Ok quick update. Took it into Nixon and they say the popping noise is the aftermarket brake pad moving around a bit in the caliper as its not quite the right size. Anyone ever heard of this?
Oh, sorry for not getting back to you this weekend. Started drinking then forgot :)
No idea on pads brand. The PO had them put in. If I were to order these, can i just change on set or will I have to do all four sides? Hahaha no worries, as we all know alcohol is the cause of and solution to all life's problems ;)
Yup thats what I meant. Chris checked the pads and rotors, almost brand new. I'll see how much this bothers me and look into those pads. He recommended OEM pads as they give the best braking power Said the play in the pad wasn't causing any issues so no need to change em unless the sound is bugging me.
See my other post just do a full smg reset using carsoft or gt1 works wonders !!!
bad gear changes
when am slowing down to junctions my m3 comes down the gears am sometimes getting a clunking noise and the car kangaroos a bit
can anyone advise ????
Merry Christmas, Gents.

Today, Microsoft Office 2010 goes on sale. Every new version of Office brings with it a raft of new features, so many that it's difficult to keep track of what's new and what's not. Therefore, before you delve into our Microsoft Office 2010 full review, here are 15 reasons why Office 2010 might be worth considering, even if you currently use one of our current 5 Best Free Office 2010 Alternatives. In no particularly order, we start with…
1. Backstage View in All Applications
Backstage View permeates the entirety of Office 2010, replacing the File tab from Office 2003 and earlier and the Office Button – itself a reworking of the File tab – from Office 2007.
It brings together many common functions that exist between applications, particularly printing options. In Backstage View you can now change print settings, page settings and preview the impact of your changes all within one screen. This is also where you control where you save your documents, allowing you to save not only to local folders but also to SharePoint servers or the Windows Live SkyDrive; as well as where you can view all the statistics concerning your document.
It's the streamlined printing screen that will seduce most users, though, and it alone makes Backstage View a resounding success.
2. Paste Preview in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Publisher
Paste Preview gives you a live preview of how pasting material from external sources will impact your document. Ultimately this means you needn't swear inwardly as text pasted from websites ruins the formatting in your document, as you can retain the formatting of your destination without a great deal of fuss. It's also very handy in Excel, where you can control how data behaves when it is pasted from different cells.
3. Screenshot Capturing
How often do you do this?
Print Screen > open image editor > paste into image editor > crop > save > open word processor > insert picture > select image > insert > re-size
Chances are quite often, but even if it's only occasionally, all this just to insert a capture or snippet of your screen is a pain in the royal behind. Enter the Screenshot Capture feature, which will quickly insert a copy of any active window, or allow you to capture a snippet of your desktop just like you would using Windows' Snipping Tool.
It's a small thing, but a great thing.

Frank Sterling May Get Settlement From Monroe County
Rochester N.Y.- A man who spent years in prison for a murder he did not commit may be getting more than $7 million in a settlement with Monroe County.
Frank Sterling sued the county for his arrest and conviction in the 1988 murder of 74-year-old Viola Manville of Hilton. She was killed by Mark Christie. The same man who kidnapped and killed Kali Ann Poulton.
He was exonerated by DNA evidence in 2010. Monroe County Executive Maggie Brooks has asked county legislators to approve $7.5 million to settle the lawsuit.
The money she say will come from the risk management fund and will not affect the county's budget.

Is it just us or is Google slowly morphing into Yahoo?
YouTube launched a money channel today, Your Money, which is pitched as an opportunity for viewers to "learn more about borrowing, investing, and saving, along with Financial News and Analysis." The channel will carry videos from Bloomberg, Reuters, Wall Street Journal, among others.
Google sure has come a long way. Not too long ago, maybe four years, the company said in its mission statement that it doesn't do "horoscopes, financial advice or chat."
Now we're waiting for a horoscope channel.
UPDATE: Our previous link to a Bloomberg story up above was a big goof – we meant to link to the actual channel. Sorry for the confusion. Seems YouTube has taken down Your Money and the blog post announcing the channel, but we're waiting for comment/confirmation.

Bournemouth 3-1 Notts County
- From the section Football
Bournemouth kept up the pressure on leaders Doncaster after coming from behind to beat Notts County.
Jeff Hughes opened the scoring for County with a header from inside the six-yard box after only two minutes.
Matt Ritchie equalised from the edge of the area before Brett Pitman netted for the sixth successive game with a strike from outside the box.
County's Andre Boucaud was sent off for two bookable offences before Ritchie added a third with a neat finish.
The result means the Cherries, who have three games remaining, stay two points behind Doncaster - who themselves have a game in hand.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe speaking to BBC Radio Solent:
"It was a really disappointing start for us when it's such a big game and such big expectancy to go 1-0 down within a couple of minutes.
"I think it was a real test for us and it was a good challenge and to see how we responded. We haven't done very well when we've conceded at home the first goal - it was really pleasing to see us come through from that. I think that in itself pleases me probably more than anything today.
"I didn't think we particularly played well 11 v 10, but it's difficult. I thought Notts County defended very well, they had a game plan, half time helped them - they could regroup - they stuck everybody behind the ball as we thought they would and it shows how difficult it is to break down when you do it right."
On Brett Pitman: "He could have had more again today, but it's a superb finish for his goal and from that range and in those areas on his right foot he's deadly."
On the five-point gap: "I think we're still in a position where we're not masters of our own destiny at the moment. If they (the chasing pack) win those games in hand then they go above us so no, not comfortable. I'd still say they're favourites to go up at this stage."

And if you want to read a very, very long document, you have the option of pivoting the screen into a portrait orientation. There is even pivoting software bundled in the box, although most graphics drivers will do this for you these days.
There's also an integrated USB hub, with two ports on the left hand side and one directly on top of the screen. The latter is there to take advantage of BenQ's USB webcam that just slots straight in, with no need for messy trailing cables. The webcam is an optional extra, but BenQ couldn't tell me how much it will be at the time of writing.
BenQ hasn't been too stingy with the extras either. In the box you'll find a DVI cable (it says optional in the manual, but the website says it's included and I had one in the box), a D-SUB cable, a USB cable, a quick start guide and a full user manual on disc. There's no HDMI cable provided, but to be fair to BenQ, I'd expect to get one of these with a source device, as I did with my Sky HD box.
As I mentioned at the beginning of this review, the FP241W makes my previous favourite monitor look decidedly expensive – although £835 was a bargain for the Samsung back in March, you're still going to pay around £740 for it now. BenQ on the other hand has been incredibly aggressive with the pricing for the FP241W, and it's already available for a truly staggering £646 including VAT! And with that in mind, it's impossible not to recommend this screen.
I've looked at a few BenQ monitors over the years, but the FP241W completely rewrites the script. Not only does it have the widest array of inputs that I've ever seen in a desktop monitor, but the image quality is equally impressive, while the price is truly incredible. Even the design and build quality of this screen are both first rate. When you throw the HDCP compliant HDMI port into the equation, BenQ really does have every single base covered with this screen. Put simply, if you're after a 24in widescreen monitor, this is the one to buy.
Ok Its 2008 now... Is this still the best 24" monitor around? Really?? I read the review about the Dell 2408WFP, it seems to have some small (?) afflictions. I can not find this monitor on Benq´s homepage. Is the FP241WZ an update of this one, with the same excellent performance? Please answer this question pleeeeeeeeeeeaaase!!!!
Yes, it's the same model but with the improved 'black frame insertion' motion smear reducing model. so technically better. LCD tech suffers from persistence in pixel switching - ie - they can't quite change colour fast enough and so there's a faint ghosting left behind. Inserting a black frame (faster than the human eye can really detect) is meant to kill this light residue off a fair bit so fast moving action doesn't display ghost artifacts. I'm using the original but am a lot less than 100% impressed with it. It does however have very good colour reproduction, contrast, black level support and is mighty bright. I personally don't have any problem with the above ghosting described though it does affect some more than others, however for standard definition material (I view tv on the monitor at times too) it can suck big time, especially for sports. Watching the football is not do-able which is pretty disappointing for a 'perfect' monitor really.
I don't think BenQ's technical support division is up to much though. The first monitor I had had significant banding and in attempting to sort this (relatively minor) issue out, they sent me two duds (DOAs) and then a screen that's even worse than the one I started out with. On top of the colour banding I now have a nice under-the-screen dirt mark permanently smeared so it can't be cleaned off plus regular intermittent monitor black outs, which is a very disconcerting effect when you're busy playing an online game and people are trying their best to kill you.
The 10/10 score needs to be taken into context by the offerings of more recent models, and particularly by other manufacturers as I don't think BenQ have even matched this level of performance let alone beaten it. The new Dell's with a very wide colour gamut range look good (the higher price usually signifies greater specification).
I'm not completely unhappy about this monitor (who could be?) but BenQ really need to sort their technical repair sub-contractors out to get the credibility of a reliable company. I've fallen into melancholy since I'm aghast and now apathetic with their defective support department. Giving up is easier.
Thanks Azro!
"The 10/10 score needs to be taken into context by the offerings of more recent models, and particularly by other manufacturers as I don't think BenQ have even matched this level of performance let alone beaten it."
But I don't understand why the reviewers of this site keep referring back to this display as the one the other brands can not beat (see the recent review of the Dell 2408 for example)? Does not the newer offerings bring more to the table (wide gamut, new technology..) that puts this Benq display in the shade? I would like the reviewers comment on this as well. Two years in technology development is like normal millennium
Best place to ask is in the TR forum, Jesper G. You can read through the (long) BenQ FP241W thread and weight the pros and cons yourself. I doubt you'd be unhappy with the monitor if you bought it, but that would rather depend on the price you paid.
http://www.tftcentral.co.uk... TFT Central is a good place to go if you wish to get updated info on any popular TFT (LCD) monitor. Here I've linked you the Dell TR reviewed and note Dell have since issued two or more firmware revisions, updating the monitor's internal software and thus dealing with some of the issues the monitor was purported to display (pun slightly intended). The BenQ FP241W series were NOT problem free and pretty much had a million people griping about some issue (however significant) or other. There's a magnum opus of a thread over at the http://www.hardocp.com/ forums all about this monitor. I've recounted my own problems with it and you should not expect absolute perfection from a monitor unless you really go very high end indeed with an Eizo or similar with proper colour calibration built in.
It all depends on what you want your monitor for, a general do it all monitor like the Dell or BenQ or absolute colour accuracy as with NEC, Eizo et al's professional range. Scout about.
I have bought this monitor after reading the reviews here and it was a real dissapointment.
First it is so slow you can't really use it for gaming. I haven't had the chance to compare it with another LCD but as first impression, it's just too slow for gaming.
Second, as it comes out of the box, the contrast and brightness are so high, the picture is distorted. I had to put both brightness and contrast to 0 (zero) before I could start using it.
Third, it can not make a true red color. The red on this monitor is orange. So for graphics sucks.
And YES I have benn trying all kind of calibrations. It's just not it. I wouldn't give it more than 6 on a 1 to 10 scale.
Control buttons, are on a side so if you need to do adjustments on it you need to turn the screen so you can see the labels on the buttons. It's really inconvenient.
I am selling it and will go for a dell ultrabright. My laptop is a dell with ultrabright screen and it's a dream. If they made the 24" screens as good as the screen on my laptop, I'll be more than happy.
About two years ago I bought this monitor. I cannot afford to upgrade my PC so am going to get a PS3 / X-Box 360. As the monitor has no speakers, does anyone know how I can connect the screen (via HDMI) and my Logitec X-530 to, for example, a PS3; I have read about a Logitech games consol adapter which I do not have - would that still work as it was meant for the PS2?
A PS3 can be set to output sound on a "regular" sound cable while still outputting video through HDMI. Video and sound settings are separate, so there would be no problem for you to get the sound through a regular PC sound system or similar.
I'm looking at getting a 24" widescreen with HDMI so that I can attach an Xbox 360 Elite as well as my PC to it. I was wondering how you reckon the BenQ FP241W shapes up against the NEC MultiSync 24WMGX3, and if there are any other alternative 24" monitors with HDMI.
I got BenQ FP241WZ - a bit newer model. As a photographer I can give 9 for image quality. I don't like tones in-between black and white and sometimes in-between some colour and white. On white side it's giving to you a some kind yellow tone. I'm not black and white photographer so it's not a big problem to me. I think for designers that ghostly yellow can be annoying too...
Full HD movies and games looks just stunning.
When I bought a monitor I paid 𧼮 and it's came faulty with some spot on the screen. I called to BENQ and it was changed in few days (15 days policy after purchasing).
I'm using monitor 8 - 12 hours a day and after almost 3 years I got on the screen some ghostly lines. There is a few some kind lines or liny mark on 2x5 inch area that you can see sometimes and very hardly. I see it maybe a few times a month when I'm working with pictures. I don't know causality of this failure but because it's almost not troubling me I'm don't bother about it.

Manaview brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 354 Designs von 101 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
We just awarded the winner for Nub2Pro website design contest and now we need a logo that will go well with the design!
Above is the awarded design.
Nub2Pro is a new Gaming Website that will cover all the latest Gaming News and provide articles and guides for our visitors.
- I honestly don't know what I want exactly. Nub2Pro doesn't really give me a picture of a physical object in my mind. I just picture a nub, meaning a beginner, and a pro, meaning a professional. But I don't think that will make a good logo :P
- A Lot of other popular gaming websites create a symbol or a object that doesn't really have anything to do with their name and it seems to workout fine. I like http://www.curse.com/ .
- I may use this for banner advertisements. Or watermark it into videos. So it needs to be something good for Branding purposes.
- The header and colors of the website can be changed to match your logo. If you want you can design a matching header for me, if not I will have the awarded designer make it .

Last night was a meaningless game against a team everyone in the Big East should beat by 30 in an atmosphere that felt more like the glorified practice it was than the first game at Fifth Third Arena.
And I loved it.
I've always been a college basketball guy. There are few sports that perk me up more than the excitement and athleticism of college basketball.
Last night was like a breath of fresh air. And not just because of the recent struggles of the football team, but watching the development of players and physical skills of a guy like Yancy Gates is fun to watch -- I don't care who you are.
Let's talk about it...
--- Here is the box score, the game recap and some quotes.
--- I wrote last night about the three newcomers who made a big splash. Sean Kilpatrick, Justin Jackson and....the new Dion Dixon.
I'm counting him as a newcomer because he looks like a different guy out there. He was confident, decisive and focused. Granted, this was only one game against a team he should be able to run circles around, but his play struck me as the most encouraging sign of the night.
Selfishly, one of the best stories in all of sports is one of overcoming adversity. I love telling those stories. Regardless of whether or not that is the most points Dion Dixon scores in a game all season, he's already overcome what happened last year -- in particular in Madison Square Garden -- by his response to the failure. Across the board he's recognized as a player who worked as hard as anybody on this team and his development was apparent on Monday.
"It's not a fluke," Mick Cronin said.
It's hard not to root for Dixon.
--- Bill Koch delved into the Dixon topic as well during his game story.
--- So, Justin Jackson scared me. That guy plays with a fire and energy this program hasn't seen in a long time. It sparked the UC defense on a run that pulled away from Carleton last night.
He tipped passes, rebounded and supplied relentless energy that helped wear down the Ravens. Of course, he did nearly take a man's head off at one point.
"He's got to stop fouling," Cronin said. "Justin is going to have a great career here as soon as he learns college basketball is a lot different than high school basketball."
Cronin also pointed out the most underappreciated part of his game last night.
"Rarely will you find a big guy who passes as well as him," Cronin said. "He's only credited with one assist, but most of his passes resulted in guys who got fouled. He's not getting credit for the assists but he's getting guys layups."
--- I said multiple times the biggest story line to watch on Monday would be the first viewing of the new Gates. After an early foul and missing a few easy shots in the lane, we saw what we hoped for.
Again, this disclaimer should accompany every note here like a Surgeon General's warning, but this was Carleton not Connecticut. Still, Gates ran the floor well and was rewarded with some big finishes. The guy had 23 points and 5 boards in 25 minutes. Hard to complain.
--- The guys at BearcatLair were talking about how the Bearcats played tough defense from the opening tip to the final whistle. Considering this was a nothing exhibition, that was a sign of the maturity Cronin has been talking about with this team.
"We just focused on working hard,' Gates said. "Whether we are working hard in practice or its time to play, we just still got kind of the same mindset. Just worried about working hard and executing. By working hard this summer and in practice it kind of carries over to the game."
--- Last year, when I was with CNati I sort of made up a stat that UC had the one of the worst shot selection percentages in college basketball if you looked at the number of 3-pointers taken relative to the percentage of 3-pointers made.
Forcing shots for Deonta Vaughn and Lance Stephenson played a major role in the stagnant offense.
Addressing shot selection was at the top of Cronin's list this offseason and we saw the fruits of that labor on Monday -- the same as we saw it in Canada earlier this fall.
Rarely were the Bearcats settling for bad shots and the players say they feel a difference in the way the offense is run. Some of it is philosophy, but I one of the more interesting elements is that it's probably more a reflection of maturity.
"That's the biggest difference on offense," Gates said. "We were young so coming out of high school we all were the main guy scoring on our team. Coming to college it seemed like plays were kind of being ran this way or this way. Young and immature, you don't know how to really accept that. Now, we are older with this offense. Now, it doesn't matter who scores. The open guy is going to score. It doesn't matter if we take a shot, we just want to take good shots as a team, that is how we feel we are going to put the ball in the hole."
--- Cronin was open to some self-evaluation as well this preseason as he said he brought in a couple big-time college coaches to evaluate his practices -- how he runs practice and the players on his team. He said former Wake Forest head coach Dino Gaudio was one of them and the other was "under the radar."
It helped to develop some of the defensive chemistry and the improved communication on defense.
"I had a couple coaches come in during the preseason and evaluate our team -- big time college coaches that are sitting out this year," Cronin said. "They gave me some good advice. It is always good to have people come in and they are high on our team. This happens a lot, sometimes coaches do too much talking in practice, so you have to go silent to let the players practice talking. That's just committment, talking on defense may be a little corny, but I would rather be corny and win with corny."
-- Stat of the night: UC knocked down 13 of 13 free throws in the first half. We'll work on finding out in the record books if that is the most consecutive free throws knocked down in a meaningless exhibition game against a Canadian team.
--- Quote of the night: UC coach Mick Cronin on how many more games his team would have won last year if they shot free throws at the 72.5-percent clip he did last night as opposed to 63 percent they finished with from the line: "I get approached by some extremely loyal fans who I appreciate that have stats on that. They all equate, I have heard anywhere from 4 to 6."

Yesterday, around 5:30 p.m., there was a bald eagle perched on top of a very tall, thin tree in my neighbor's back yard. It was just looking around at his surroundings. I lived in Southeast Alaska for 5 years so very familiar with what they look like...I am in southwest Florida across the bridge from St. Pete Beach.

We saw two Bald Eagles soaring overhead yesterday in Delray Beach, Fl. They glided down to take a closer look at us and then off again and away in seconds. Amazing!!!! What a gift to experience them in our own yard!!! We were able to get a picture of them.

Changing a triangle into a circle: educating the new information professional
Hallam, Gillian C. & Partridge, Helen L. (2003) Changing a triangle into a circle: educating the new information professional. In International Conference (Asia-Pacific) on Challenges and Opportunities for Libraries and Information Professionals in Knowledge Management and the Digital Age, 20-22 March 2003, Chiang Mai, Thailand. (Unpublished)
|PDF (139kB)
The capstone unit in the Graduate Diploma of Library and Information Studies course at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is ITN339 Professional Practice. While the overarching goal of this unit is to prepare graduates for their new career as an information professional, the traditional classroom environment presents a number of challenges for teaching staff in terms of how to encourage students to truly engage in professional issues. Innovative teaching and learning approaches have been introduced with the aim of supporting the graduate's transition from university into the workplace. The teaching and learning process is viewed as a tri-partite relationship between students, academic staff and members of the profession, all working together to develop a well-rounded, competent and confident new professional. The curriculum therefore covers not only discipline-specific issues, but also the development of the individual personal and interpersonal attributes which are required by students to be successful as they enter the workforce. This paper outlines the teaching and learning approaches used in the unit: student-run colloquia, fieldwork and a professional portfolio represent the assessment tasks which enable students to demonstrate the multiple dimensions of their learning. Extension activities are provided through a mentoring program and through their involvement in publishing an electronic newsletter. This unit has become an example of content and process coming together. The professional networking required to establish the program reflects the essence of the program itself – encouraging reciprocal professional development. Both new and established professionals become aware of the productive ties between members of the profession and that beyond the professional interaction, real friendships can evolve, so that professional development is interwoven with personal self-development.

Always be on the alert for potentially fraudulent job postings online - never send money to a potential employer.
DescriptionLiving NY is a full service Real Estate brokerage and investment firm with a property management division named Livingston Management.
Livingston Management manages over fifty buildings throughout the five boroughs. We are aggressively pursuing new investment opportunities, therefore seeking 3-4 candidates who are highly capable of helping us acquire new residential and commercial buildings.
Since we are brokers and not just Principles/Investors, our goal is also to connect buyers and sellers using our proprietary Investor Database, which has over 70,000 investors and includes all of their phone numbers and email addresses. By connecting the two parties, we earn a very hefty commission check.
LivingNY not only buys buildings, but sometimes sell them as well. In this case we retain the exclusive listing, market the property, and procure a buyer. LivingNY then pays our commission.
This year alone, we have already acquired four buildings, and sold two. All 6 transactions have been in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Living NY differentiates itself from other brokerages in various ways. One of which is our proprietary database of investors which allow us to call, meet, sell, and buy buildings EXTREMELY efficiently. Otherwise, you will be spending 20 minutes just to find one owners phone number and therefore can only make a very limited amount of phone calls per day.
Also, LivingNY's main focus is on residential rentals. This is great because the investment team can gain a tremendous amount of knowledge regarding the real estate market and rental prices, which ultimately determine a building's value. Collaboration within our office is a huge factor to our success. Our company's foundation is built upon determination, self-motivation and professionalism.
After learning and understanding the market which takes about 3-6 months, you should expect to earn over $200,000 in your first year alone. However, in order to succeed, you MUST be extremely determined and resilient enough to push through rejection and adversity.
Our Investment team will mentor and guide you throughout the entire process of closing an investment deal from start to finish, allowing you to close deals at a quicker pace.
Bottom Line:
Your main priority will be seeking new potential investment acquisitions for LivingNY, as well as brokering third party deals that exclude LivingNY. The main idea is to call and find owners that either want to buy or sell investment properties and ultimately servicing them.
The purpose of the phone call is to obtain meetings. You will be trained on what to say over the phone to get these meetings. After a week of pounding the phones, you will become a pro using our process. Once you obtain a meeting, that particular owner is now YOUR client, in which YOU will get the credit for. Better yet, a Senior Investment Associate will attend and control the meetings while you listen and sharpen your skills.
ResponsibilitiesCandidate must make roughly 80-100 phone calls per day using our investor list (very easy) and obtain meetings with these property owners. You will be coached and mentored on what to say on the phone and in meetings
Candidate may be asked to create Setup sheets which highlight everything about a particular property including the building's revenue, expenses, pictures, and descriptions.
1) Self-Motivation
2) Determination
3) Resilience
4) Courage
- You will be rejected often. But you must be able to put it behind you and move on immediately!
SkillsRequired - Self Motivated, Strong Business Acumen
Preferred - Sales, Marketing, Accounting, Finance, Motivated
