Devcon problem in Windows 7 : [Solved]
If you are using "devcon", which is a small command-line utility for managing device drivers in Windows OS, you're in bad luck if you're working on Windows 7. Though most people tend to use '"Device Manager" graphical utility to update, install or remove the drivers in their Windows OS, sometimes it becomes a necessary to use the command-line utitlity "devcon", to fix certain problems. Some examples of these problems are like when you use scripting and when Windows Server installed on Server core option etc.
Features of Devcon:
1. All the device driver functionality that comes with "Device Manager" graphical utility including advanced functionality such as,
a. disable device.
b. select one specific driver for specific device etc.
Cons of Devcon
1. It is simply not available as a out-of-box tool. You cannot find the tool very easily.
2. The complexity of the syntax is hard to understand.
Download the current Version of "Devcon"
OK. These are some of the features and introduction of devcon. Let's see, how it works in Windows 7. On googling devcon, I found a forum post, which says found problem working with devcon in Windows 7.
1. Download the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) 7.1.0 from Microsoft. Download here. It's an ISO image of hundreds of MB size.
2. Use Universal Extractor 6.1, to extract the ISO to a temporary file on your hard disk.
3. Using Universal Extractor again, extract the windows installer file ""WDK\setuptools_x64fre.msi"" to a temp directory. If it's a 32 bit version, the file name may be little different.
4. In the temp installer file, you will find "WinDDK\7600.16385.win7_wdk.100208-1538\tools\devcon\amd64\devcon.exe". This devcon works fine, under W7x64 Pro.

shower repair
leaking hot water faucet in shower/tub (3 handles hot, cold & shower). used allen wrench to remove the handle and removed decorative cover. turned off the water, removed the stem and it has a porcelain back. I take it to the local Home Depot an Lowes and they have no clue as to what the brand it is. They ask me who made the fixture and I can't find any marking on this thing (handle, cover and spout), drain and shower head has Kohler marked on it but these are noticable different products. Photos will be posted at a later date.
How can I identify who the manfacturer of this product is?
Try going ta a plumbig supply house. Lowes and HD can only help with common items if at all:whistling2:
I went to this ma and pa shop in my community and was able to identify the maker through some pictures that I gave him (Artistic Brass). he says the it will take a couple of days to order.

Quick birdhouse makeover
Hey there! I know I haven't posted anything in over a week, and that's because summer vacation is rapidly nearing it's end, and I have been enjoying every.last.second of it with my kiddos! I do have a number of finished projects waiting for their turn to shine in a blog post, but the fact is, it takes me awhile to create a post! This project, however, was really quick and hopefully the post will be too!
A few weeks ago, I picked up this lovely bench at the flea market.
It looks so sweet at the end of the dining room! I set an old box with some random lovelies in it on top of the bench.
I wanted to add some more goodies to the bench, but I was looking for just the right piece. Then a friend gave me this FANTASTIC birdhouse!
I thought it would look great on the bench, but it seemed a bit dark. What do you think?
Well, I guess it doesn't matter what you think, because I painted it! ;) I sprayed the birdhouse with one, VERY LIGHT coat of Ocean Blue from Krylon. Once it was dry, I sanded it a bit to make it look worn.
Now I think it looks much better! How about you? Seriously, this time. What do you think?
Okay. That was pretty quick! We are off to enjoy the Son and the sun today!

I'm so mad/depressed, I need help.
Hello all, I just joined the forum today trying to get any help I never speak or share my problems with anyone in this world even my wife.. I always deal with everything by my own but now I feel like I lost my control and I'm so depressed.
First of all, I have a weak English but I will try my best to explain my issue so please tell me if I am not clear with my explanation.
let me talk about my marriage in a few words.. I've been married since 2008, I have a 2 years old boy.. my wife loves me so much but she hates many things in me, we live a very simple life and we both try our best to live and have fun all the time.. like traveling, cooking, going out for shopping or movies..etc
We have some traditional things and we both got used to it, like she goes to her parents house every weekend and sleep there the whole weekend and I also take a break from marriage live and be with my friends and play games or whatever I do.. we both like this so we meet after the weekend so fresh... but sometimes she break this rule and call me just when I am in the middle of this like going out with my friends or when I invite my friends in the house.. she calls me and say: Come pick me up lets go out and I was like WAHT!! I have my friends you know.. I can't kick them out and say that I'm sorry my friends I have to go now m wife want to hangout with me..
Anyway.. each time she does it.. I ignore her until she get mad at me and start insulting me and say something that I hate so much.. like we are not a good husband or are you a man enough? .. I ****ing hate you and so sad that I met you !!!!!!!!!!!!
I know she just say this because she is so mad.. so I never take this for real.. but when she comes back from her parents house with my son.. she is like nothing happened and she didn't say anything !!! .. ok I still mad and hated those words.. sometimes I let it pass to avoid making problems.
this happened like 100 times or more like 2 times a month.
recently which is last night.. same script again.. she called me on the weekend and said come pick me up let go out.. when I told her that I am with my brothers and friends and you know that right? .. she got mad and started saying the same ****ing words like you are not a true husband and not a man.. I got mad and closed the phone on her face and switched it to silent..
She said something hurts me so bad.. she said that I wish I never get married from a guy like you!!
the next day.. she called me and told me that she is
!!! I was so happy and everything... but I felt like very mad and happy at the same time... because she hurts me with her ugly words and the next day she brings that cool news.
So she came home and dressed up cool for me and she was trying to hug me but I couldn't accept her hug.. she said whats wrong? and I said why you act like nothing happened ? I am not a good husband right? you want another man who is better than me??? just go away!! I took my son and I was walking to the door to go out for fresh air.. she said: if you leave now from this door.. I will leave the house for ever !! and said do whatever you like and I ignored her and went out for 30 mins .. then when I went back to my house she took her bags "mini bags" and my son and left the house to her parents house.
now I don't feel like talking to her or anything..
I don't know what is the next action..
I ignored my wife for some reason, she insulted me, then I got some good news that she is pregnant .. I felt so happy but I couldn't show her my happiness on this.. so she got mad and left the house to her mother's house.
So please if anyone here can help or advice me I will be appreciated.
Thanks for reading. (sorry for the bad English)

Essentials of Sports Betting- What Are We Up Against?
Friend of the show Todd Fuhrman of Don Best Sports is always dropping valuable information to help our listeners and sports betting fans maximize there profit and educate themselves on the art of handicapping.
In Todd's most recent article he explains how sports betting is a marathon and not a sprint and the small percentage number that separates the sharp bettors from an average one.
"If you go 10-10 for every 20 wagers (50%), you will be a lifetime loser betting on sports. However, if you go 11-9 for every 20 wagers (55%), you will be a lifetime winner, rubbing shoulders with the sharpest of the sharp."
As you can see in sports betting it is about mitigating losses and preparing for a marathon, because even the sharpest of bettors strive to win at a 60% mark.
CLICK HERE to read the entire article from Todd Fuhrman, and don't forget that signing up for the Don Best Advantage will get you this valuable information plus much more for under $8 a month.

BDS 6'' Front, 4'' Rear, Long Arm Lift for 08 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 4wd Diesel (4 1/8'' Axle)
- Maintains a Quality Ride
- Provides 6'' Front, 4'' Rear Lift
- High Quality Materials
- Industry Best Lifetime Warranty
BDS Suspension 6" Long Arm Kit for the 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 3/4 Ton and 1 Ton 4WD Pickup- Gas & Diesel
This suspension system includes 6" Pro-Ride Coil Springs and heavy duty, long upper and lower control arms. The long arm lift kit includes solid upper long arms and tubular lowers to reduce caster change through wheel travel creating a more controlled feeling in the steering wheel both on and off road. This 4-Link long arm system retains the factory triangulation of the arms as well which adds to the stability of the suspension system. What does this mean Basically it drives great both on and off road. All four control arms are greaseable for long term performance. A dropped forged pitman arm is included to maintain the factory steering angles. A track bar relocation bracket properly centers the axle under the vehicle. Extended bump stops and sway bar links maintain the OE characteristics. The rear of the Dodge Ram is lifted via a 4" block kit or optional Glide-Ride Leaf Springs. Not only is the kit designed to last, but so is the finish. Every bracket is powder coated twice with a base grey color and then a clear coat over the top to ensure long term performance of our finish.

My dad called me back because he's worried about us....
...word is getting back to the siblings now and they are
very upset. My "aunt" swears that she told the man
(company rep, whatever)
to discuss everything with my dad in person before she made a final decision, and that he came by my parents' house a couple of times, but no one was home.
We think that actually DID happen because he described to my "aunt" what their vehicles looked like, etc. She swears she tried to call my dad many times about this, but could "never get through". I'm like
"WTF number were you calling?"
My parents have had the same telephone number since I was born 40 years ago.
My dad came home from work one day and there was a chaos of logging trucks, busily cutting down all the trees. I can't imagine the shock he must have felt.
He says he is going to look into the whole land issue over the next few weeks and see what he can find out. I wish the family could all get together and purchase it, just so it would be out of her hands for good.

Make Way for Bison
Painting, demolition, electrical installation, construction: It's all happening in the anticipation of native bison's return to Nachusa Grasslands in fall 2014. In addition to the cosmetic changes you may notice in and around the prairie, there is also some behind-the-scenes work taking place that is every bit as critical to the success of this project as the tear-down of the old barn and the installation of the new bison corral.
This summer, scientists from the Conservancy, Northern Illinois University, Southern Illinois University, and the Illinois Natural History Survey joined forces to conduct extensive scientific sampling on the prairie. From stream structure to turtle tracking to insect collection, measurements of all shapes and sizes were taken to establish a baseline for the state of the prairie today, before bison are free to roam at Nachusa.
In order to understand exactly how that story unfolds, Conservancy staff need to measure and document the prairie in its current condition. To achieve that goal, several teams fanned out across the prairie in early July to collect data on every aspect of this complex habitat. The "Stream Team" spent time in Wade Creek, measuring how the water flows through Nachusa's prairies, how deep and wide the creek is, and what kind of insects and other animals are present. Meanwhile, one team of scientists from Southern Illinois University tracked ornate box turtles by radio transmitter while researchers from Northern Illinois University collected comprehensive samples of prairie insects. All of their measurements will be recorded and compared against similar measurements taken after the bison have spent time in their new home at Nachusa. When compared side by side, this data will help the team understand exactly what effects bison will have had on the prairie.
"Once bison are reintroduced, we expect to see changes on the prairie, from which animals and insects flourish to which plant populations decline," said Bill Kleiman, preserve manager. "But if we don't take samples now, we will have no way of measuring what effect bison are having on the prairie."
These changes will be welcomed at Nachusa. Without bison or other grazing animals on site, certain grasses begin to overtake native plants and flowers. The end result is a decrease in the insects, birds and animals that rely on those plants as a food source. Bison's natural grazing behavior keeps the grasses in check, tilting the competitive advantage in favor of native wildflowers, which in turn attracts different species of insects, birds, and other animals back to Nachusa. In this way, bison help sustain the biodiversity of remnant and restored prairies over the long term.
"We know that bison will be good for the prairie. This is a unique opportunity to understand exactly how they influence the natural habitat. It's a chance to study and learn, and from there, we can share those results with grassland restoration projects around the world," said Jeff Walk, director of science in Illinois.

|Mouth-Watering Mangoes for Mass-Marketing
The perfect mango melts in your mouth. But many aren't perfect because this tropical fruit is susceptible to injury during cold storage. At temperatures below 50 °F, mango's skin becomes pitted and discolored and its flesh darkens and becomes susceptible to decay.
ARS and Mexican scientists recently discovered that methyl jasmonate prevents such chilling injury. This sweet-smelling compound derived from the essential oils of plants—especially jasmine and honeysuckle—is safe and relatively inexpensive. Fifty dollars' worth could treat truckloads of fruit.
Studies showed how to use methyl jasmonate to prevent chilling injury and dramatically improve overall fruit quality. The treatment worked on mangoes at various stages of maturity and didn't alter normal ripening and softening processes or increase water loss.
The researchers also learned to preserve fresh-cut mangoes by treating slices with a combination of hexylresorcinol, isoascorbic acid, and potassium sorbate—all food-safe compounds derived from natural products—and storing the slices in plastic containers to prevent drying.
Mangoes could be an attractive addition to the growing market for fresh-cut produce, but browning and drying have prevented such marketing. In 1998, the U.S. population consumed 412 million pounds of mangoes—an increase of 77 percent from 1993.

|Clearing the Air With Biodiesel
Buses and other diesel-burning vehicles will run cleaner if they mix soy-based biodiesel with their regular diesel fuel. To test the feasibility of switching to this fuel blend, ARS began a year-long demonstration at the Beltsville (Maryland) Agricultural Research Center in January. BARC has 65 vehicles operating on "B20," a 20-percent biodiesel/80-percent diesel mix.
|This test is part of a federal effort to reduce reliance on petroleum and create new markets for U.S. crops. There is interest in permanently switching as many federal government vehicles as possible nationwide to alternative diesel fuels, using biodiesel from soybean and other seed oils or animal fat.
One goal is to increase the federal purchases of biobased fuel and other products by 10 percent each year for the next 5 years.
The demonstration may help encourage local governments and the private sector to do the same—especially in areas where air quality is an issue. Crop-based diesel burns cleaner and produces less soot, and vehicles don't need modification before being switched to the fuel.
Recent changes in the Energy Policy Act of 1992 allow for credits for biodiesel usage in existing vehicles, reducing the number of alternative fuel vehicles that must be purchased.
Future changes could also affect large municipal vehicle fleets, such as buses and public works vehicles.

Processing Alfalfa and Soybeans—on the Spot
New products and increased markets for alfalfa and soybeans may be on the horizon for Midwest farmers, thanks to innovative research by ARS and University of Wisconsin scientists in Madison. Following a concept long used by the petroleum industry—the separating, or fractionating, of crude oil into a variety of products of increasing value—researchers have tested the fieldside processing of harvested crops.
Until now, wet fractionation of alfalfa and soybeans has been performed at a central processing facility. But that necessitates transporting the herbage, containing about 80 percent water, from the field to the facility and then dehydrating the plant material and transporting the waste liquid back to the field as liquid fertilizer.
Last summer, under a cooperative research and development agreement with industry, a group of machines was used in the first fieldside demonstration of wet fractionation of soybean herbage. Commercially available machines, plus a modified hammermill—normally used to pulverize grain by forcing it through screens—were used to rupture the herbage without reducing fiber size.
Demonstrating the feasibility of the concept was the first step toward further development of a mobile field processor. Working like a combine, it would cut and wet-fractionate the crop while juice was being processed at the edge of the field.
Products such as cattle feed, chemical feedstocks, mats for filtering pollutants from water, enzymes derived by growing fungi on the fiber, and building materials can be made from the fiber portion. Products from the juice fraction might include food- and feed-grade protein concentrates, carotenoids, antioxidants, and industrially valuable enzymes.

Yes, there does feel like there is a bit of a ring ridge, but this could be due to build up of residue in the part of the cylinder wall rather than wear, as the cylinder, to my untrained eye looks to have very little wear at all. I'll soon have access to the type of micrometer that you would measure all the specs on the various engine components. This will give me a better indication of how much wear has occurred.
At the moment the engine is completely pulled completely to individual pieces. Crankshaft out etc. I took one of the compression rings and put in down into the bore of its cylinder to see the gap at the ring join. It was about 0.5 mm. This surprised me how much this was. Either the cylinder wall or the rings have had significant wear. Hopefully it's just the rings.
As far as the engine life is concerned, I have no idea. I found the engine is the world's filthiest shed that had about a hundred different BMW and Mercedes engines scattered amongst an equal number of every other bit of the same cars. Suspension components and drive trains were stacked up to the ceiling. The men who worked there spoke no english, and therefore I had no idea of the engine's age. I suspect it's an early 00's engine. Some of the date stamps on the components are late 2000.
Where I live is a little easy going with the way they fix cars. Across the road from the place I bought this engine, was another BMW parts place. They had half a 7 series body there for sale. Obviously it had been in an accident. They got an angle grinder, cut it in half, and were selling the good half. Find another half, get it welded together, and hey presto, new 7 series body. As you might guess, there are a lot of bent cars driving around here.
In a nutshell, they would have no idea of the engine's history.

He might well be very good but in failing to provide such basic facts he's only serving to undermine his own credibility.

Meet the TIME Invention of the Year: The iPhone
Jason Mick
November 6, 2007 11:02 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
TIME has picked its winner for the most revolutionary invention of the year and its not a cancer drug, its the iPhone.
Every year,
magazine picks a person of the year and an invention of the year. This year it went for a democratic process for the
invention of the year
via web-based voting.
The results will likely be controversial. The invention of the year is the...iPhone. While 2007, may be known to many
DailyTech readers
as the year of iBrick,
writer Lev Grossman glosses over the negatives and lavishes praise upon the iPhone.
"Yes, there's been a lot of hype written about the iPhone, and a lot of guff too. So much so that it seems weird to add more, after Danny Fanboy and Bobby McBlogger have had their day. But when that day is over, Apple's iPhone is still the best thing invented this year," states Grossman.
Grossman is eager to overlook Apple's less favorable press, which is not even explicitly mentioned in his article --
environmental concerns
, and
class action lawsuits
. Instead he focuses on why he thinks the iPhone is the most revolutionary thing invented in 2007.
His first reason is that "It is pretty". That is literally his first reason, no you did not read wrong. Grossman argues that beauty is something that is frequently lost in the field of electronics. He describes the iPhones functions saying, "An example: look at what happens when you put the iPhone into 'airplane' mode (i.e., no cell service, WiFi, etc.). A tiny little orange airplane zooms into the menu bar! Cute, you might say. But cute little touches like that are part of what makes the iPhone usable in a world of useless gadgets."
The second reason Grossman gives is because it is "touchy-feely." Grossman states that Apple did not invent or even reinvent the touch screen, but rather knew what to do with it. To some extent few can argue this point with him -- even Apple's harshest critics would mostly agree the fully touch driven interface is at least somewhat original.
Grossman goes on to state that the iPhone will make other phones better. It will do so by encouraging phones to adopt AT&T/Apple-esque contracts. Grossman skips over any negatives to the consumer and enthusiastically hails these contracts as providing the hardware developer (in this case Apple) with unprecedented freedom, which he feels leads to great products (like the iPhone).
Grossman also argues that it is a platform that will be built upon. He points to the applications already running on it, such as Google Maps. He also points out that third party applications will be coming in 2008,
as reported
. He fails to mention, though, that if you currently try to fill your iPhone with third party applications and you update your firmware update, you will be the owner of a new iBrick.
Finally Grossman points out that the iPhone is only the first of many phones to come. The iPhone, having sold 1.4 million units during Apple's
recent quarter
, has had sufficient success to warrant hardware refreshes akin to the iPod. Grossman points out, accurately, how far the iPod has evolved from its early clunky ancestors.
So there you have it -- your
invention of the year is neither a new medical treatment nor a new space engine or plane -- the invention of the year is Apple's controversial iPhone. Will the public agree with
's pick? Will Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs be
's man of the year? Will they even care? The answers are still up in the air. However the real debate lies among the technophiles and the consumers, who ultimately decide whether the iPhone is the most revolutionary invention of 2008, or just a closed-system replete with draconian restraints. The future success of the iPhone rests on their decision.
(For those interested, one of the cooler runners-up was WowWee's remote control
FlyTech Dragonfly
, weighing it at about 1 oz. and as the world's first commercially available ornithopter. It is available for only a scant $50 USD and features a flight time of 6 minutes on a 20 min charge)
"There's no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share. No chance." -- Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer

I JUST came here to post about my experience in replacing the hub/bearing assembly. It took me only 2 hours in my driveway with a minimal amount of tools. FYI I have an 04 with 55k miles but I live in a relatively dry area so there wasn't too much corrosion.
First off I ordered the part from AutoPartsWarehouse. I actually ordered a generic hub/bearing that cost only $99! Unfortunately it looks like it's no longer on the site, so the closest is the Timken brand one that's received plenty of good reviews. Came in about a week and it's was ready to be put on the car (ie already lubed up).
I'll do my own step by step that will hopefully help you out.
1. Go to auto store and buy/rent the following (you might have some of this stuff, but I needed them):
a. 32mm axle nut socket (I tried to rent but they were all out so I bought it for ~$15)
b. Replacement cotter pins (I didn't know what size so I just bought a pack that had assorted sizes ~$5)
c. CRC/Freeze out or any sort of rust/corrosion loosener. There is a whole shelf of them, I chose the cheapest. ~$4
2. Other tools you will need: A mechanics set with all of your socket sizes. The sensor is a 10mm, the brake calipers are 17mm I believe, and the 4 bolts for the bearing are something else smaller than the 17mm. Make sure you have some long bolts and an extender. You'll also need some sort of hammer, I used 2lb rubber mallet/hammer type thing, as well as a regular metal claw hammer.
3. Loosen up lug nuts, jack up car, and remove wheel. Once complete, I sprayed all visible bolts with that penetrating liquid. I waited just a couple minutes, sprayed a bit more, the went on to the following step. (2 bolts brake caliper, 4 bolts hub assembly, 1 bolt wheel sensor, and the axle nut)
4. Take the two bolts off from behind and remove the brake caliper from the rotor. I used a small bucket and sat the caliper on top of that. You don't want to let it dangle as it won't reach the ground. Push it as far as you can to the inside of the car to give you room.
5. At this point, nothing is actually holding the brake rotor on the wheel hub assembly. Some light pounding with my rubber hammer got it loose and I slid it right off.
6. Remove cotter pin with a pair of pliers.
7. Remove axle nut. It's nice to have a breaker bar on top of your ratchet to give you more leverage.
8. Remove the ABS wheel sensor from the back of the hub. If you look behind, you'll see the small wire and the 10mm nut. Luckily mine slid right out after removing the bolt. Hopefully you don't run into the corrosion issues like others.
9. Remove the 4 bolts holding the assembly in place. Even with the long extension sockets, I had to turn the wheels left and right to be able to access the top nuts because teh CV boots get in the way. No biggie though.
10. At this point there is nothing hold the assembly in place. You do have to pull it out towards you though as it's teeth are still locked into the axle. It took me about 25 minutes to finally get it out. The techniques I used were banging it from all sides with the rubber hammer. The one that worked the best is hitting it from behind on the right side (passenger side) or left side (driver side). Whatever side is closer to the front of the car because the dust shield on that side isn't in the way and there seems to be more room to swing a hammer. You do bang up the dust shield a bit but don't worry about it. Eventually you'll see it start to separate from the dust shield and just keep pounding away. Like someone else said, you won't be reusing the hub so just go for broke. I hit it so hard one of the lug bolts actually came out. SEriously, I can't stress enough, just keep pounding it, you're breaking all the corrosion and dirt away. I doubt you'll be able to break anything, except the dust shield maybe. You can also try pounding in sideways in a circle, it won't actually spin though because the car is in park, but it should loosen it up that way as well.
11. Once it's out, just slide the new part right back in it's place, line up the holes and put everything back in the order you took it out. Don't forget to put the brake rotor back on I almost forgot. I didn't bother using a torque wrench and everything seems to be fine.
The minute I started driving it was SOOOOOO much more quiet. I'd been driving for about 2 months with that horrible vibration from the front and it's soo smooth now. My car feels brand new. I saved over $200 doing it myself and I highly recommend everyone do it. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for write ups.
I did driver side yesterday, broke the sensor (damn!). BUT, my bigger worry is this:
With the old hub, the axel nut was on 1 thread past the hole where the cotter pin goes. I've replaced it with a Timken, and now my axel nut is on the shaft about a 1/4" past the hole for the cotter pin. Does that make sense?? Anyone experience that? Seems to drive fine, but don't understand it?? THanks in advance.

Maybe the old hub wasn't torqued down properly or became looser over the years, and when you tighten down the new hub it is sitting properly now. You did use a torque wrench to install the new hub, right?
Well, when I took the old one off, it was on pretty tight (needed the impact gun). I did torque the new one to about 100 lbs, and on closer review, it's more like 1/8" rather than 1/4", so I think I'm OK.
After replacing the driver side, I hardly noticed a difference in the noise (although my wife says she does). Hopefully when I do the passenger side there's a BIG improvement... I can feel the grind/vibration it in the gas pedal! It's really hard to tell which bearing is the culprit (at least for me). If after replacing the passenger side, and breaking that ABS sensor (sure to happen!), the noise is still there, I'll be out about 5 bills, and likely take it to my mechanic assuming it's the CV joint.
Thanks for all advice/replies... this is fun!
I hope you will good after the passenger side is done. P.S. the old hub bolts could have been hard to get off due to corrosion, but not torque down to specs. Because it is hard to remove do not mean that it was installed properly from the start. I believe that nothing have been done right 100% unless I do it myself.

AP 1131 as office extend w/local ssid?
I have an 1131ag AP attached to our 5508 as an OEAP over the Internet. Everything with the corporate SSIDs is working correctly, so no issue there. I was wondering if a local ssid can be configured on the AP, similar to what can be done with the OEAP600, in order to provide wireless access to the Internet only? On the WLC, on the H_REAP tab, there is a button labeled "Reset Personal SSID", so I am guessing that there must be a way to do it-I just can't seem to find out how. TIA.
You would set a username/password on the AP from the WLC AP GUI. Once this is set provide that to the end user, they will then browse the AP using HTTP via the IP of the AP from the local DHCP server. They can then login and create their personal SSID.

wikiHow to Whiten Yellow Hair
Four Methods:Using TonerUsing Purple ShampooUsing Gentian VioletLightening Hair with LemonCommunity Q&A
Bleaching your own hair is cheap and fun, but it rarely ends up platinum blonde. If you have yellow, orange, or brassy tones after bleaching, cover them up with these whitening treatments.
Using Toner
1Use a toner after bleaching. Dark hair often ends up with orange or yellow tones after bleaching. The right toner will cancel out these brassy tones and makes your hair closer to white or platinum blonde.
2Find purple toner in a drugstore. Just about any pharmacy should carry toner, and you might even find it in the hair product aisle of a supermarket. Pick a purple or violet toner to remove yellow tones.
3Mix it with red gold corrector (optional). If you also have undesired reddish tones in your hair, buy red gold corrector from a salon or online. Mix this with the toner according to label instructions.
- Green or blue toner will cancel out reddish or orange tones without the need for a corrector, but will leave your hair yellow, not white.
4Mix with a creme developer. Choose a developer with 30 volume or less. High volume developers may make bleached hair weak or even cause it to fall out.
5Apply according to label instructions. Check the toner label to find out how long you need to leave it on your hair. Leaving it in too long can make your hair purple, so don't overdo it.
- Alternatively, a very easy option is to simply book an appointment with a hairdresser for a toner to be put in. It takes less than half an hour, and can be as cheap as about $20.
Using Purple Shampoo
1Select a purple shampoo for regular upkeep. A purple color-correcting shampoo will counteract the yellow tones and make your hair appear brighter and blonder. This is not as strong as toner, since it is intended for regular use. Here are a few examples of purple or violet shampoos:
- Tressa Watercolors Violet Washe Shampoo
- John Frieda Sheer Blonde Color Renew Tone-Correcting
- Clairol Shimmer Lights
- Pravana Pure Light Brightening Shampoo for Blonde, Silver, or Highlighted Hair
- Any shampoo with "D&C Violet" or "Extract Violet" in the ingredients list
2Wash your hair with purple shampoo. Apply the purple shampoo instead of normal shampoo, then rinse out and follow it with conditioner.
3Repeat every two or three washes. Too much purple shampoo will leave your hair with a light purple reflection. Apply every two or three washes, or even less often once the brassy tones have gone.
Using Gentian Violet
1Buy gentian violet at a pharmacy. Find a tiny bottle of this dark purple liquid, at low concentrations (preferably 2%). It will usually be in the same aisle as bandages and antiseptics.
2Mix two drops in a basin of cold water. Don't add any more, or you may end up with purple hair! The water should be a violet color, not dark purple.
- Careful — gentian violet will stain anything it touches. You may want to try this outside instead of in your sink.
3Dip all of your hair in the basin. Leave your hair underwater for 30–60 seconds. This should lighten your hair color and reduce yellow or brassy tones.
4Dry your hair. Keep in mind that your towel may be stained purple.
5Repeat weekly. Repeat the process once a week for continuous color.
Lightening Hair with Lemon
1Treat your hair with lemon juice. Squeeze out some lemon juice and rub it against the yellow areas of your hair. You can also apply it along with your shampoo for a more mild effect.
2Spend time in the sun (optional). Heat and sunlight will help the lemon juice lighten your hair.[1]
3Condition your hair. Leaving lemon juice in your hair too long can cause damage from the acid. Conditioning your hair or using alkali products will help prevent this.
Community Q&A
Do I rinse out the gentian or leave it in?wikiHow ContributorIt depends. If you use it mixed with water, then you don't need to rinse it out. You can also mix gentian with conditioner (as long as it's not yellow) or hair mask, in which case you will need to wash it out. Another benefit of using conditioneriwith the gentian is obviously less hair damage, as gentian does dry out your hair a little.
Can I use straight developer to get the yellow out?wikiHow ContributorNo it just stays yellow. You need to use a toner. Gentian violet works well and it's the cheapest. Just only use about a drop or two.
How can I get the purple out of my hair? I used too much gentian violet and now I'm stuck with purple hair!wikiHow ContributorDye your hair a normal color and try again with it or use bleach again. Best of all, take a visit to the hairdressers, especially if that remedy doesn't work.
How effective is lemon juice for this?wikiHow ContributorIts known to be quite effective if you use it out in the sun long enough, but not too long to damage your hair. Lemon juice is probably the most popular method for hair lightening.
How many drops of violet would I need to put in my conditioner? Does it stain your fingers?wikiHow ContributorIt stains everything, but once it's mixed with the conditioner, it can be washed off rather easily. (Still, I highly recommend using latex gloves and some kind of hair dye applicator such as a brush). I usually use three drops per quarter cup of conditioner, but I usually end up with slightly purple hair (which I like) so you might want to add less. But either way, the purple color can be washed out and you do NOT need to bleach your hair again.

If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.
- You can also mix one drop of Gentian Violet with your bottle of conditioner or shampoo for maximum whitening. Don't put more than one drop in a 500ml bottle. Mix it in a bowl and then put back in the bottle, making sure that all of the shampoo or conditioner is one color.
- You can add light brown dye over bleached yellow hair to give it a natural blonde look.
- Leaving bleach in longer can help prevent yellow or brassy tones, which are left over when the bleach picks up the darker pigments. Use a lower volume developer so you can leave the bleach in longer without damage. Lower volume developers are also recommended near the crown, since the body heat here can speed up bleaching A strand test can help you figure out how to achieve the desired color.

Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 9 platform preview 3, the latest pre-release version of the company's next web browser.
Curious developers running Windows can download platform preview 3 starting Wednesday afternoon. This version of IE9 features expanded support for specific HTML5 elements that can take advantage of the browser's new hardware-acceleration abilities.
"Most computing tasks on the web only take up 10 percent of the PC's capabilities," Microsoft's Ryan Gavin said at a press event Wednesday. "We want to unlock that other 90 percent."
The new IE9 platform preview has expanded support for HTML5's native video and audio capabilities, as well as expanded support for the Canvas element.
"Showing how well we handle these HTML5 elements is the point of this release," says Microsoft's Rob Mauceri.
Microsoft has taken a fair bit of heat in the browser world for being slow to adopt HTML5. Though not yet finalized, the emerging specification is already widely supported by Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari. Microsoft's current version of Internet Explorer, IE8, is woefully behind these other browsers when it comes to support for HTML5 and other standards like CSS 3.
With IE9, due around the end of the year, the company hopes to get back on the right path.
Microsoft has engineered this version of the browser to take advantage of the latest multicore processors and GPU chips shipping in the newest hardware. Several of Microsoft's hardware partners — AMD, Asus, NVidia and Dell — were on hand with their newest, fastest machines at the press event to show the browser preview running through some Microsoft-built demos.
The company first showed off a hardware-accelerated preview of IE9 at a developer event last year, and then upped those capabilities with the second platform preview in May. But Wednesday's release of IE9 has some updated code to access the hardware and an updated JavaScript engine to make scripted animations smoother.
Microsoft's hardware acceleration tools, which rely on Direct2D and DirectWrite, are built into Windows 7, and the company is making them available to Windows Vista users (but not XP).
The frame-per-second rates in the new IE9 preview release were impressive. We saw animations, as well as some native video playback (H.264 video — IE will support open source WebM video if the user has the correct codecs installed on Windows). From the looks of the demos, IE9 is shaping up to be one fast browser. It easily smoked Firefox and fared quite well against Chrome. Microsoft's demos don't contain any vendor-specific HTML code and they don't block other browsers, so you can run your own tests in several different browsers. Microsoft is using vendor-specific prefixes on its CSS 3 demos, however.
It's admirable that Internet Explorer is supporting so much of HTML5 in the next release ("We're all in on HTML5," Mauceri says) but Microsoft is taking their level of commitment up a whole extra notch by building a hardware-accelerated browser that can access the GPU for native animations and native media playback.
"Canvas, audio and video are the perfect match for hardware acceleration," says Mauceri.
It's a growing trend. Mozilla is adding hardware acceleration to Firefox 4, and Google is building it into Chrome.
Apple's Safari browser already uses hardware acceleration for some animations, but Microsoft is confident the new IE9 still performs better. Earlier this month, Brandon LeBlanc from the IE team posted a video of Safari 5 and IE9 running side by side. The video shows IE outperforming Safari.
A bonus for designers — the new IE9 includes support for the new Web Open Font Format (WOFF) for displaying fancy fonts on webpages.

"Good hall but their in house DJ service has Horrible customer service. Stay away from this vendor. They have a very unethical way of doing business, and will try and force you into a contract you do not want. Shame on Paradise banquet hall for associating themselves with such a horrible company. Basically, if you want to book Paradise you will be forced to work with Good or "BAD" Vibrations."
