Buyers avoided the weekend property auctions, and the latest clearance rates were weak as the market shows signs of slowing.
In Sydney, the clearance rate was stronger than last weekend but still well down on the same weekend last year, according to Australian Property Monitors figures.
On Saturday, 61.3 per cent of properties auctioned sold, up from the 12-month low 56 per cent the weekend before but down from 73.7 per cent one year earlier. However, the number of properties put to auction rose. There were 384 under the hammer this weekend, compared with 344 one week earlier and 227 one year before.
In Melbourne, conditions were soft. The clearance rate on Saturday was 60.8 per cent, down from 67.3 per cent one week earlier and down from 79.1 per cent one year earlier, APM figures show.
Melbourne also posted a rise in the number of properties put to auction – 555 went under the hammer on Saturday, compared with 499 the weekend before and 485 on the same weekend in 2009.
Real Estate Institute of Victoria figures showed a clearance rate of 68 per cent for Melbourne, up from 66 per cent the weekend before.
REIV spokesman Robert Larocca said clearance rates had been consistent throughout winter. There was already evidence that a higher volume of properties would start to go to auction after the federal election, heading into spring.
Mr Larocca said that, looking back over past federal elections, there was evidence that many vendors preferred to push their auctions back until after the poll.
The market had shown "a level of remarkable consistency since the start of winter", he said.
There have only been two weekends in excess of 70 per cent. I don't think anything will change until after the election when volumes will start to increase."
David Morrell, of Melbourne buyers' advocates Morrell & Koren, agreed that buyers seemed to be "treading water" and looking for direction in terms of pricing.
He said there was a sense of gloom in the Melbourne market
"We're limping into spring," he said. "At the top end of the market, the light switch has been turned off."
Mr Morrell said vendor expectations on sale prices did not generally reflect the weakening that had taken place in the market. However, good quality properties which were well priced continued to sell, he said.
A $3.7 million four-bedroom home on Olola Avenue in the eastern suburb of Vaucluse was the most expensive property to sell at auction in Sydney on Saturday. At the other end of the scale, a two-bedroom apartment in Warwick Farm sold for $199,000.
In Melbourne, the highest price paid at auction was for a four-bedroom property in Wattletree Road, Malvern East, for $3.45 million. The cheapest property sold at auction was a four-bedroom home in Melton South for $231,400.

An full-page advertisement set to run in several Texas newspapers on Tuesday labels Gov. Rick Perry (R-Texas) a "coward" for refusing to debate his Democratic opponent and not meeting with editorial boards.
"We think it speaks for itself," said Cliff Walker, the PAC Director for Back To Basics, the group running the ad. "We know it's bold language."

Chef Vic Introna and Kim Miljoen, son of owners Rod and Tammy
I'm trying to remember the last time I spent $110 on lunch while an eight-year-old told jokes. Can't, but what the hell. I'm laughing and the other diners are chuckling and clapping too. Angus could teach Rove McManus a thing or two. And then he's off, back down to the wharf to catch jellyfish.
Welcome to Peats Bite, a weekend lunch restaurant in a nook of the Hawkesbury River. There's no road, a diesel generator splutters power and the water's from a tank. It's a 6km boat trip from Brooklyn but better-dressed diners arrive by seaplane from Rose Bay. It's so relaxed and sociable it feels as if everyone's gathered for a picnic. Dogs run around. Kids chase the dogs or fish while others are locked in mortal combat over a giant chess set. Adults stretch their legs on the lawn between courses or chat with strangers at other tables.
Tammy, hostess of this bushland paradise for the past 25 years, sings: easy listening favourites, the occasional sea shanty and happy birthday when a victim is dobbed in by friends. It's a magical place that makes it all possible and plausible.
The al fresco dining room is a series of large varnished picnic tables with cushion-covered bench seats under a corrugated iron roof. It has the feeling of an '80s island resort. Upstream, Berowra Waters Inn was a blazing comet that enraptured for an all-too-brief period; Peats Bite is a quiet stayer.
The view is beautiful, looking north across the water to the angophora-covered, honeycombed sandstone cliffs of the surrounding national park.
As I stand, marvelling at the surrounds, a waiter picks me as thirsty. Grosset Watervale riesling ($50) sounds good. Scotchmans Hill pinot noir ($50) comes later. Without fresh glasses. Like I give a stuff.
One hundred and ten dollars seems like a lot for lunch. It is and, while the food doesn't exactly soar, there are some solid moments, plenty of crowd pleasers and, ultimately, lunching here is unique.
We score dips as we settle in: a gleefully good hummus sweetened by honey and basil; another with sun-dried tomatoes, white beans and dill that overcomes my prejudices; and extra virgin olive oil with a pistachio-heavy, spice-light dukkah. Need more crusty ciabatta bread? No probs.
Chef Vic Introna doesn't have a flash CV; he's knocked around a few Sydney cafes, is largely self-taught but he understands the basics better than most and isn't afraid of a little adventure. The menu is ambitiously elaborate, given the logistics, beginning with two set antipasti-style entree plates for the table. You choose a main and dessert.
What the seafood plate lacks in quantity it offsets in quality. There's a curly strip of Balmain bug meat, lightly dusted with rice flour and spicy with chilli and black pepper without overpowering the shellfish. Then there's a quarter of tempura soft shell crab with zesty citrus notes, plus a classic garlic prawn. In the middle is a beaut, subtle tartare with dill and roasted shallots. The only problem is the seafood trio doesn't need it.
The taste plate's quartet of vegetarian treats is even smarter: bruschetta laden with balsamic-infused roasted capsicum and capers; a demitasse of fragrant and lightly creamy lemongrass and sweetcorn soup; a polenta square sharpened by Manchego, the ewe's milk cheese of Don Quixote country, smeared with an Indian-style chilli jam and thatched with deep-fried basil; and finally, a baked pumpkin ricotta with tapenade. It all looks remarkably dainty and pretty.
The mains turn blokey. They took a while but we didn't mind slowing to the bucolic rhythm of our surrounds.
A mound of marinated pork ribs smeared with plum sauce is finger-licking fun. The osso buco is gloriously tender in its tomato-rich stew with roasted chats and lifted by a generous sprinkling of lemony gremolata.
The snapper exhausted, ocean perch takes its place, draped over a mound of fried vegetable and black-bean fried rice that pungently evoke memories of regrettable country town Chinese takeaways. A trio of over-cooked scallops sits on top, hidden under a slice of lime. The sins multiply in a puddle of thick brown masterstock. Cinnamon clod-hops through it, destroying any subtlety and wailing in contradiction to its companions.
Vegetarian shepherds pie is packed with root vegies, lentils and beans in a satisfying red wine gravy, capped with a goat's cheese-flavoured mash. Squiggles of parsnip chips and deep-fried rocket cap this fine dish.
A wickedly good chocolate and rum cheesecake, a fine trio of cheeses with caramelised fresh fig and a spectacular plum and berry strudel with mascarpone hint we are soon to awake from this dream.
The sun is starting to flag. The seaplane pilot is impatient and keen to beat the sunset. Still enjoying themselves, his passengers are in no hurry. Tammy offers a hint by breaking into her specially modified version of a John Denver classic.
"Cause I'm leaving on a seaplane," she sings. And between the knowing groans and giggles, we join her for the chorus.

Today's bring-your-own-device (BYOD) employee isn't yesterday's road warrior, so it's time for businesses to put in place the structured support systems — policy, management, and application access — that align the expectations of the new corporate work style with its business priorities.
With more than half of employees paying for their mobile devices (and all or some of their data plans), and the lion's share opting for their device of choice rather than IT's device of choice, the traditional notion of imposing operations based on standards and stability flies out the window.
The great influx of a diversity of mobile devices driven by the user is driving IT toward a more conditional approach to support — with IT retaining the right to control cost and security while developing a new set of policies that allows some freedom.
Consumerization is akin to the fashion business; in both, change is constant. Therefore, it makes sense that companies need to respond by being agile and adaptable, even to unprecedented events. "Businesses have to establish best practices that transition as the market transitions," says Ken Dulaney, vice president for mobile computing research at Gartner.

Tuesday's New York Times obituary on the life and work of American director Jules Dassin, "filmaker on blacklist," shows that anti-anti-Communism will never die. Times writer Richard Severo unfurls the usual flag in paragraph nine:
By the time he wrote and directed "Never on Sunday," a comedy about a good-hearted prostitute (Ms. Mercouri), the anti-Communist witch hunt in the United States had been discredited, and he had been accepted again.
This "witch hunt" language is offered despite the first paragraph acknowleged Dassin's membership in the Communist Party in the 1930s, as filmmaker Edward Dmytryk testified to Congress. The "witch hunt" found witches, but it was still "discredited."
Clearly, to the liberal media elite, Communist Party members are in no way witchy or evil. They may have bigger hearts and deeper consciences. As Dassin explained his Communist period:
He joined the Communist Party in 1930s, a decision he recalled in 2002 in an interview with The Guardian in London. "You grow up in Harlem where there's trouble getting fed and keeping families warm, and live very close to Fifth Avenue, which is elegant," he told the newspaper. "You fret, you get ideas, seeing a lot of poverty around you, and it's a very natural process."
Apparently, it's morally superior to have complete equality in squalor, as was the promise behind the Iron Curtain. But even there, the hypocritical rulers knew how to pamper themselves.
In the Los Angeles Times, Claudia Luther quotes from the communist-sympathetic book Tender Comrades by Paul Buhle and Patrick McGilligan, adding:
Of the blacklist period, Dassin often said that he was one of the lucky ones: He found work again after five years.
"I'm not bitter," the upbeat Dassin told L.A. Weekly when he was 90. "But there's an unhappiness for so many lives destroyed and for the effect it had on movies that were made, for a long time."
The liberal papers never tire of the sob story about "lives destroyed." I've often wondered about how crusading media liberals never attempt to explore the thorny paradox at the heart of this historical topic: wouldn't America be weakened by granting every freedom to those who served lawless tyrannies who sought to crush that freedom?
Aside from the total avoidance of objectivity, a better question is this: How morally obtuse is a liberal newspaper writer that mocks the starvation of the Ukraine, the victims of the Gulag Archipelago, and the mind-numbing story of mass murder that tumbled out of the Soviet archives, by finding heinous evil in the fate of a film director who had to make movies in France and Greece?

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hi nuo....,
Thank you for using Just Answer.
The problem that you are describing is more common than it used to be.
We only recommend using powder type dishwasher soap.
They dissolve better and generally give a better wash.
The newer soaps have been formulated differently than those from a couple of years ago.
We have also seen better results with the wash by adding a 1/2 cup of vinegar (especially if you have hard water).
When you use the powder trying using less than you think you need.
Using too much of the dishwasher soap a very common cause of problems also. The pre-defined balls don't let you adjust the amount of soap that is used.
There are dishwasher cleaners that you should use before trying the above remedies. The dishwasher likely has accumulated too much soap everywhere within the machine (inside parts that are not visible).
Please let me know if you would like more information and/or clarification.
Do you recommend any specific dishwasher cleaners? Also, are the liquid soaps as good or better than the powders?
The liquids tend to gum up more. We really don't like them because of that.
As for the dishwasher cleaner, there are a number of different brands now on the market. We can't say that one has been reported to be better than another. They seem to work well. Believe it or not years ago we used "Tang" to clean them! That was before there were any. One I've seen do well was called "Bartender Friend" or something like that.
Thanks for your help. We hope this works!

I won't shop until I drop, says Erin O'Connor
If you want to follow the very latest fashion trends then who better to model yourself on than the jet-setting Erin O'Connor?
The supermodel was at London's Somerset House yesterday to launch a new personal shopping service at Heathrow. Passengers will get a free stylist and access to more than 300 outlets. As O'Connor put it: "The personal shoppers at Heathrow have incredible fashion and beauty insight, which means they can pull a selection for me before I even arrive. I can make the most of my time before I board and know I will have everything I want for my trip."

A player can't continue to play if you break his arm. I thought I made that clear. Nobody is out to seriously injure anybody, but that doesn't mean you can't inflict some pain and make him think twice about getting into the lane again.
You sound like the 30 year grown man beating up on a 12 year old. Trying to equate a regular foul with intentionally hurting someone is absurd.
You can hand someone a hard foul without putting their life in danger. And yes, I do mean in danger.
TJ Ford could have easily become paralyzed or even died with the falls he has taken. But those are all good since he had the abilty to get back up. What a joke.
Yeah, because there are so many 12 year olds in the NBA!
And besides, one play can result in someone popping right back up or it can result in a broken neck. How do you protect players from the broken neck if you encourage putting them on the floor?
Should we also ban tackling in football because players run the risk of spinal injury?
You sound like an overprotective mother cringing every time her little boy takes a fall.
[QUOTE=Kstat;1282536]You tell them to not play basketball for a living. It's a contact spot. There's a certain amount of risk that comes with the game. You can blow out your knee without even touching someone./QUOTE]
I understand that. That doesn't justify adding MORE risk to the situation.
Notice that they have the ability to judge between a "good" hit and a "bad" one. It's not a field day on how you want to hit people.
Knocking someone to the ground every now and then is fine, as long as you aren't up-ending people. Hardwood floors are pretty forgiving.
As I said before, nobody ever got seriously injured against the bad boys due to their physical play. Never happened. They wrote the book on good, hard fouls. I don't need to make the argument about added risk, because it's already been made for me.
As many hundreds of times as they punished people at the rim, nothing serious ever resulted. That makes a better case than anything I can say.
Notice the NBA has the same thing. It's called the flagrant foul.Quote:
Notice that they have the ability to judge between a "good" hit and a "bad" one. It's not a field day on how you want to hit people.
As someone who deals with chronic lower back pain every single day, I can tell you exactly how unforgiving they actually are.
I've landed on plenty of hardwood floors and plenty of solid concrete. Give me the former any day of the week.
Odds don't stack up against each other. They're independent.
Just because you were hit and didn't get hurt doesn't mean you're never going to get hurt. But that is the argument you tried making.
Because the Bad Boys didn't seriously injure anyone doesn't mean that using their tactics will never injure someone.

Rays strike balance on second day of MLB Draft
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays made eight picks in the second session of the MLB draft Friday. Their choices included balance: Four high school players and four college prospects were taken; in addition, four picks were pitchers and four were position players.
R.J. Harrison, Tampa Bay's director of scouting, spent some time during the Rays' game against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday night at Tropicana Field to offer insight into each second-day selection. Here is what he had to say.
Thomas Milone, CF, Masuk (Conn.) High School (third round, 97th overall)
Harrison: "He's an athletic, above-average runner. A strong kid. … I think that we should see improvement by leaps and bounds. But he's got good athletic skills. … He's a strong kid. We watched him up there. We worked him out up there this spring. He's got good pull power."
Kean Wong, 2B, Waiakea (Hawaii) High School (fourth round, 128th overall)
Harrison: "A lot of characteristics of Kolten (brother, a St. Louis Cardinals prospect). He's a little bigger and stronger. Probably not quite the runner Kolten was or is. But (he's) a guy that we think really doesn't have any real holes. He's a good hard-lined drive guy. Average runner. He has played all over the field. We like him best at second base, and that's what we're going to do with him."
Johnny Field, 2B, Arizona (fifth round, 158th overall)
Harrison: "He played center field at the University of Arizona. Another kid that we have a lot of history with. He's a Las Vegas kid. … He was one of the leaders of that team that won a national championship last year at U of A. tough kid. … He has played a little bit of second base. We're going to do some work with him at second base this summer."
Stephen Woods, RHP, Half Hollow Hills East (N.Y.) High School (sixth round, 188th overall)
Harrison: "A right-handed pitcher from Long Island. I haven't seen this kid. We had about three guys in the room who saw him. … We think this kid is a good high school starting pitching prospect. Fastball now averages up to 93 mph on the top end, and (he has) an above-average curveball."
Tyler Young, 3B, Louisville (seventh round, 218th overall)
Harrison: "An above-average runner. We like his bat. We like his legs. He'll play third base. We'll probably move him around and give him some work at second base. He's a good athlete and a good college bat."
Roel Ramirez, RHP, United South (Texas) High School (eighth round, 248th overall)
Harrison: "I've just seen him in a workout. He's from down on the border in Laredo. (Scout) Pat Murphy, our area guy there, started talking about him last year. He ran into him. He was scouting the eligible guys from last year's draft. He's excited about him. He has down a lot of work on him. He has driven a lot of miles and spent a lot of time down along the border seeing this kid. … He's a sinker, slider-type starting pitching prospect."
Austin Pruitt, RHP, Houston (ninth round, 278th overall)
Harrison: "An above-average curveball. The curveball is an out pitch."
Aaron Griffin, RHP, Loyola Marymount (10th round, 308th overall)
Harrison: "A Friday starter at LMU. He has had a good college career. Likely, a starter early in his career in the minor leagues, and we'll see what happens from there. He's a tall, rangy guy who creates a pretty tough angle on right-handed hitters."

Originally written on Start 'N' Park Blog | Last updated 8/31/14
The NASCAR season is back upon us and it is time to get you caught up with everything that happened in the offseason. Start 'N' Park Blog will be going through their list of drivers running the full schedule in 2013 and telling you what you can expect from those drivers in the new year. Today's entry is the driver of the #55 Aaron's Toyota, Mark Martin. Driver: Mark Martin #55 Sponsor(s): Aaron's Make: Toyota Team: Michael Waltrip Racing Crew Chief: Rodney Childers 2012 Finish: 26th What's new for 2013: No changes for this team, running races between Martin (24), Michael Waltrip (3), and Brian Vickers (9). Mike's Rank: 26th Mike's Take: I'd take Martin in 24 races versus a handful of drivers running the full season. I'm still leaning towards last year was a fluke for MWR, but would not be surprised if Martin gets win before the year is out. Jason's Rank: 28th Jason's Take: Martin will win a race or two and have some great finishes in the select races he competes in the No.55 car. Brandon's Rank: 23rd Brandon's Take: Martin has had some solid runs in the #55 car during his run in 2012. Can he and Brian Vickers continue to provide MWR will solid finished in the #55? Brittany's Rank: 33rd Brittany's Take: The ageless wonder will not race the full season, so I can't rank him any higher.

You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
So highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
To see my sin upon that cross
Chorus (repeat three times)
Your peace it floods my soul
It's supernatural
Your amazing love is unconditional
Your joy it overflows
It's supernatural
And Your love for me is unconditional
Sweet assurance
Your grace will always endure
Whatever becomes of this
Your will will be done on earth
Lord I trust You
To move in miraculous ways
Now I feel Your arms around me
And I worship You all my days
And give You praise
I feel your arms around me
I feel your peace inside me
Amazing love, I surrender, I surrender
You alone are God (2x)
The morning star is shining through
And every eye is watching You
Revealed by nature and miracles
You are beautiful (2x)
I feel like I've gone astray
Kinda like a runaway
From the grip of your love
It's not that I wanted to
It's not like I tried to do it that way
I didn't want to go that way
I found there's no distance too far
That could change who you are
That would turn you away
Your love comes rushing in
And pouring over me
I know when I come running, you run for me
There's no way that I
Could never be free
Without being captive in your arms, reaching for me
When doubts and fears are starting to begin
That's when your love, your love comes rushing in
I know it's just a matter of
I could never be good enough
To earn your love
I gotta take you for what you say
Trust in you and know your grace
Is more than enough
There's no mountain to tall
So great any fall
That could ever take me from you
You took all I was
And gave all that you have
I traded my life for one I never had
All creation cries to you
Worshipping in Spirit and in truth
Glory to the Faithful one
Jesus Christ God's Son
All creation gives You praise
You alone are truly great
You alone are God who reigns
For eternity
God is great and His grace
Fills the earth
Fills the heavens
And Your name will be praised
Through all the world
God is great
Sing His praise
All the earth
All the heavens
'Cause we're living for the
Glory of Your name
Glory of Your name
Glory of Your name
All to You O God we bring
And Jesus teach us how to live
Let Your fire burn in us
That all may hear and all may see
Holy is the Lord
The whole earth sings
The whole earth sings
(Repeat twice)
I will exalt the One who lifted me
Out of the miry clay to heights of eagle's wings
Words cannot express
All I know is this
You changed me, You changed me
I can remember how I used to be
I was so bound but now I am free
I will exalt the One who lifted me
I've never known
A Father like You
A love that is strong, gentle and true
You draw me close
Just like a child
Safe in Your arms there is no doubt
This is my place
This is the way
Repeat Chorus
I will seek You
Till I find You
Just to touch You
Is what I'm living for
Let Your glory flood my life
Let Your beauty fill my sight
Come and carry me away
Only then will I be satisfied
Only then will I be satisfied
To lay aside the things I love
My throne, my crown, my sin
Abandon all to touch Your heart
Is my desire again
Chorus (twice)
I will seek You
Chorus (twice)
Only then will I be satisfied
Lead me on Lord towards the cross
I give myself to You
You're the love of my life
You're the arms open wide
I know Your presence is here in this place
Lord I surrender all that I am
To the love of my life
Knowing my heart would fail
You made a way for me
You died to set this captive free
In this You've shown Your love
Within my darkest hour
That's why my prayer will always be
Lead me on Lord towards the cross
I give myself to You that I may know You more
Chorus (repeat twice)
Love of my life (repeat three times)
You are my cup
You are my bread
You're the spotless lamb
The Great I Am
You are my King
You are my peace
You're the air I breathe
You're everything to me
Am I standing only ankle deep
Or do I fear the crashing waves
Afraid that I might sink
Draw me to the deepest place
That I might worship You
With empty hands I come
A beggars song I sing to You
Chorus (repeat three times)
I will give You everything
I will, I will
Make my life an offering
I will, I will
My Savior, I'll never
Forget what you've done
You carried the weight of my sin
To the cross, the victory's won!
You make my heart brand new
Now there's nothing I won't do
Lord I surrender all I am to You, to You
So when I lose my life, I save it, I save it
And by Your grace I'm saved
I know it, I know it
When You were on the cross
You gave it, You gave it all
I will give You everything
I will, I will
Make my life an offering
I will, I will
Let my heart be torn in two
I will, I will
Broken and poured out for You
I will, I will
No price I pay, will ever be too great for me
O rest alone, in the love You've shown
I'm free
You took the stripes
You took the pain for me
So now I sing a song of hope
I'm free
So now I sing, hallelujah
I'm free

Chainsaw safety
Submitted by The Federal Fire and Aviation Safety Team
Chainsaw safety is the job of every saw operator, and proper PPE should always be used when handling or working around chainsaws.
These include:
- Eye protection- approved goggles or safety glasses (no sunglasses).
- Chainsaw Chaps — proper size and length.
- Proper-sized gloves.
- Long sleeve shirt.
- Leather boots — no loose boot laces.
Take the time to inspect the chainsaw before operating the saw.
- Check the chain and bar — sharpness of chain, bar seated correctly.
- Check the bolts and screws all around the saw — no missing screws or bolts.
- Check the casing of the saw — no cracked or missing plastic.
Make sure you're aware of your surroundings while operating the chainsaw.
- Look for people working in your area — advise all personnel you're operating the saw.
- Look for any snags or hazards in your area — look up for power lines, widow makers, etc.
- Make sure you always have a spotter or swamper to use for communications.
- Always watch your footing while operating the saw — loose, rocky, steep terrain can cause you to slip while the chainsaw is running.
Always make sure you are comfortable doing the task at hand.
- Proper training for personnel running saws.
- While falling trees, know your escape route.
- If you are not comfortable falling the tree, walk away. Notify your supervisor and mitigate the safety issues or turn down the assignment.

My summer staycation outdoor speaker project. Part 1 -- Picking the gear
Ken Nail has written about car audio for Crutchfield since 2003, after four years as Crutchfield Sales Advisor, and 10 years as a music teacher. He's an avid music listener, whose favorites are classical and film music. When not chained to a desk, Ken spends most of his time training for triathlons and marathons, and likes getting outside for backpacking, downhill skiing, and bicycle touring. He attended West Virginia University, where he received a Master's Degree in Music Performance and a Bachelor's Degree in History.
More from Ken Nail
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
With money tight for many of us this year, the "staycation" is in vogue this summer. Rather than spend hard-earned cash on a dream vacation, many are opting for shorter trips and more quality time around the house. I don't have any big vacation plans this summer, so it seems a perfect time to invest a little money in improving the entertainment value of my house's deck.
Our deck is a shady respite, perfect for lazing away a sunny afternoon or relaxing with a favorite beverage on a warm summer evening. What could complement these idyllic times better than some music? But there's the rub — tunes on my deck are pretty limited. I've had to make do over the years with a worn-out boombox or a poorly performing wireless speaker. Both have disadvantages.
To use the boom box, I've got to lug out handfuls of CDs, and then gather them back up and take them inside when I'm done. The wireless speaker is a little better, but it's prone to outbursts of static and the sound quality really isn't that good.
What's the solution? It's obvious to me — outdoor speakers. With speakers connected to my stereo I'll get excellent sound quality, and all my media can stay inside, by the stereo. But installing outdoor speakers will take a little planning if I want to do the job right. I've got to figure out what gear I'll need, how to route the wires, where to mount the speakers -- there's a lot to consider.
But every journey starts with a single step. To begin my project I browsed crutchfield.com to pick out the gear I'll need. Here's a list, with links and explanations of what I'm getting and why:
Speakers — Polk Atrium 45 Indoor/outdoor speakers. I'm a fan of Polk Audio speakers, and I like the size and color of these speakers. They're designed for outdoor use, so they'll hold up to the elements.
Speaker wire — AudioQuest FLX-16/4 in-wall speaker wire. This high-quality wire carries four conductors, so I'll only need to run one wire. It's rated for direct burial, too, which is important, since I'll have to route the wire outside of the house.
Wall plate — Niles Audio 8-post wall plate. I'll install this wall plate behind the stereo so I can connect the "B" speakers of my stereo into the new wiring going to the outdoor speakers. Much cleaner than simply running the wires into the wall.
Volume control — Niles weatherproof stereo volume control. Who wants to run inside every time the volume needs adjusted? Not me. With this weatherproof volume control, I'll be able to adjust the volume while I'm on the deck.
There are the parts I'll need. In my next post, I'll sketch out my plan for the installation.

CONVENTIONAL WISDOM says wireless LAN access to an enterprise adds enormous risk because the broken security model at the heart of Wi-Fi networking allows crackers to break encryption, snoop traffic, insert packets, and associate at will. WLAN access points must be outside the firewall, with VPN connections tunneling through. No exceptions.
Enter the Wi-Fi Alliance, with members that include Microsoft, Intel, Cisco, and Apple. Seeking to quell consumer and enterprise concerns about Wi-Fi security holes, the group has essentially lifted the construction engineer's drawings for the work-in-progress IEEE 802.11i security draft and started to pour and smooth the macadam that leads to the golden city on the hill: full 802.11i completion and ratification. This ad hoc engineering project comes with member approval; the move isn't as radical as it seems.
The alliance's new WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) standard uses most of the current 802.11i draft to repair problems in WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), the first line of defense for Wi-Fi networks. WEP's goal was to encrypt packets in transit at the data link layer to deter unauthorized network access.
WEP failed in its attempt, however, through several cryptographic flaws that resulted in rapid key reuse. These flaws leave the link layer unprotected by Wi-Fi, and thus banished it outside the firewall where protection is provided at higher network layers by VPN, SSH, or other tunneled encryption methods.
WPA solves the problem by abandoning WEP in favor of 802.11i's vastly improved TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol). WPA ensures that TKIP keys vary for each packet through key mixing. WPA also increases part of the keyspace and adds encrypted packet integrity to reject inserted packets. Current Wi-Fi puts weak integrity outside the encrypted payload.
WPA includes full support for server-based authentication using the 802.1x protocol and EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol), both part of the interim 802.11i draft.
802.1x defines the roles of a client (called the supplicant), the authentication pass-through component of an access point (the authenticator), and a back-end authentication server. EAP is a generic architecture for passing messages among parties that don't necessarily need to understand the contents; in this case, the authenticator passes through some messages and interprets others.
A wireless supplicant first associates with an access point that has an integral authenticator or a connection via a LAN to a Radius-like system. The authenticator only allows access to itself via a single port; the supplicant has no access to the rest of the network. The authenticator challenges the supplicant for credentials, which could be a digital certificate or a username and password, and passes this information to an authentication server.
If access is approved, the authenticator hands over a unique per-supplicant master key from which the supplicant's network adapter derives the TKIP key, the packet integrity key, and other cryptographic necessities. After a user has been authenticated, EAP is used to frequently refresh the master key, reducing the window of opportunity for intercepting packets for cracking. This rekeying process cleverly has perhaps more to do with the cryptographic future than the present.
Although EAP lacks a built-in encryption method -- it's merely a generic messaging method -- three overlays that embed EAP inside an encrypted tunnel have emerged to solve different parts of the problem.
An early version, EAP-TLS (Transport Layer Security), required a client-side public-key certificate to be preinstalled before the first wireless session. Although this was the method that Microsoft uses for its campuswide WLAN, EAP-TLS is complicated because an enterprise must establish a PKI.
Instead, vendors are focusing on two methods: EAP-TTLS (Tunneled TLS) and PEAP (Protected EAP), both of which build a tunnel within a tunnel. The outer tunnel is entirely anonymous, allowing a second tunneled session to begin inside it, which itself encapsulates EAP or other protocols. This approach avoids client certificates but still allows for them.
Microsoft and Cisco have backed PEAP. Although virtually identical in principle to EAP-TTLS, PEAP handles only EAP and MS-CHAP V2. Microsoft has offered PEAP clients for Windows XP and 2000 for free and plans a full Win32 rollout for Windows 98, NT 4, and Me.
Neither company representatives nor industry observers can explain the necessity for both EAP-TTLS and PEAP, the main difference between the two being the latter's lack of legacy authentication support. It's easy to assume that Microsoft and Cisco's agenda was to push enterprises to upgrade to newer authentication servers, but PEAP could wind up as widely available as EAP-TTLS.
Both EAP-TTLS and PEAP are passing through the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) process toward hopeful reconciliation or at least standardization. During this process, two man-in-the-middle attacks have been theorized that must be addressed before the standards can be deployed with absolute security.
One attack relies on supplicants performing authentication in the clear when asked to do so; the other attack lies in a lack of cryptographic binding between network layers, which allows a man-in-the-middle to spoof a network identity without detection.
All current support for 802.1x/EAP, tunneled or not, still relies on WEP as the link encryption method, which means that a VPN is still required for definitive link security until WPA with TKIP starts appearing in access points and clients.
As we survey the road ahead, it's clear that the arrival of WPA and eventually 802.11i will reduce the administrative burden of WLANs, integrating them with existing authentication mechanisms and making the security issue disappear.

http://www.viewwave.com/ Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) is the 28-year-old son of James Reid (Tom Wilkinson), publisher of the Los Angeles newspaper The Daily Sentinel. Britt is an irresponsible playboy who throws wild parties to embarrass his father, a stern disciplinarian who has always been disappointed in him. However, his attitude changes when James is found dead from an allergic reaction to a bee sting. After the funeral, Britt fires the staff aside from his maid and Kato (Jay Chou), James' mechanic and a skilled martial artist. Britt and Kato get drunk together and, upon agreeing that they both hated James, visit the graveyard to cut the head off James' memorial statue as payback. After they succeed, they see a couple being mugged, and rescue them. Britt and Kato are themselves mistaken by police for criminals and chased through the streets, but Kato evades them and he and Britt return to the mansion. Britt convinces Kato they should become crime-fighters who pose as criminals in order to infiltrate the criminal underworld, and also to prevent their enemies from using innocents against them. Kato agrees, and develops a car outfitted with several gadgets and weapons, which they call the Black Beauty. Britt plans to capture Benjamin Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz), a Russian mobster who is uniting the criminal families of Los Angeles under his command, and whom his father was trying to expose. To get Chudnofsky's attention, Britt uses the Daily Sentinel as a vehicle to publish articles about a "high-profile criminal" — the Green Hornet. Britt hires Lenore Case (Cameron Diaz), who has a degree in criminology, as his assistant and researcher, and uses her unwitting advice to raise the Green Hornet's profile. Britt and Kato blow up several of Chudnofsky's meth labs, leaving calling cards so Chudnofsky can contact them. Throughout all this, Daily Sentinel managing editor Mike Axford (Edward James Olmos) fears this single-minded coverage will endanger Britt's life, and District Attorney Frank Scanlon (David Harbour) frets over public perception that he cannot stop the Green Hornet. Britt asks Lenore out, but she rebuffs him and instead invites Kato to dinner, making Britt jealous. Kato learns from her that mobsters often offer a peace summit to rivals in order to get close enough to kill them; Britt then tells Kato that Chudnofsky has offered them such a meeting. Kato tries dissuading him, but Britt, feeling overshadowed, follows his instincts. Chudnofsky tries to kill them, but they survive thanks to Kato's quick thinking. Barely escaping to the mansion, Britt and Kato argue and fight, and Britt fires both Kato and Lenore, whom he believes are in a relationship. Kato receives an email from Chudnofsky on the Hornet's calling-card email address, offering $1 million dollars and half of Los Angeles if he kills Britt. Meanwhile, Britt discovers Scanlon is corrupt, learning that he tried to bribe James into downplaying the level of crime in the city in order to help his career. Scanlon invites Britt to meet in a restaurant, where he reveals he murdered Britt's father. Kato arrives, and instead of killing Britt, he attacks Chudnofsky's men, allowing him and Britt — whom Chudnofsky deduces is the real Green Hornet — to escape. They head to the Daily Sentinel, where Britt intends to upload a recording of Scanlon's confession onto the Web — and belatedly discovers he did not manage to record it. Chudnofsky and his men follow the duo there, where a firefight ensues. Kato ultimately stabs Chudnofsky in the eyes in self-defense and Britt guns him down. A SWAT team appears and fires at the Green Hornet and Kato, while they use the remains of their nearly demolished Black Beauty to run Scanlon out the 10th-floor window, killing him. The Green Hornet and Kato flee to Lenore's house, where she learns their secret identities and that she has been the accidental mastermind behind the Green Hornet's plots. She is furious, but nevertheless helps them hide from the police and tends to Britt's shoulder gunshot wound. The next morning, Britt promotes Axford to editor-in-chief and stages being shot in the shoulder by Kato, further establishing the Green Hornet as a threat (and allowing Britt to get treated by professionals in a hospital). Later, the two weld James' stolen bust back onto his memorial statue. Now with Lenore to aid them, Britt and Kato vow to continue protecting the law by breaking it. « less

Taipei (AFP) May 29, 2014
Taiwan's Acer on Thursday unveiled its cloud service centre as the struggling computer maker seeks to revive its fortunes by diversifying away from the low-margin hardware business.
Stan Shih, chairman and company founder, revealed further details about its software service programme called "Build Your Own Cloud" (BYOC), which he initiated late last year after returning to the helm of the company to launch a series of reforms.
"I'm not saying we don't want hardware any more, it's still crucial, but in the future, Acer will set its sights on both hardware and software services," the 69-year-old said at a press conference.
He said Acer needed to get away from the traditional business model that had once made it the world's number two personal computer maker, as stiff competition from rivals such as Apple in recent years had caused fortunes to slide.
"We need a new mindset. Me-too is not my style," he said.
Acer is pushing BYOC as the future of cloud computing, where individuals can access information saved in their personal cloud storage, on multiple devices.
Users can store the information on their personal computer and the cloud storage feature enables them to connect to it remotely on other devices. This means consumers can potentially access their information anywhere, anytime.
Acer have said that firms joining the BYOC open platform, will be able to provide services to individual clients through apps.
During the press conference, Studio X-Gene Co, a Taiwan-based car designer which is one of 18 firms to have so far joined the platform, demonstrated how a prototype of their new electric car would work with BYOC.
A panel inside the car, for example, would measure the car's speed, electricity consumption and transmit the data via the internet to users' personal cloud storage, and the information can be accessed on any device.
If consumers download the company's app, then it will alert when fuel is running low and provide directions to the nearest charging station.
Shih has said that he plans to retire as the chairman in June, six months after he returned to launch a series of reforms. He said he expected Acer to "return to glory" by 2017.
Last November, Shih replaced chairman and CEO J.T. Wang and corporate president Jim Wong, who resigned after the company reported a net third-quarter loss of Tw$13.1 billion ($442.2 million).
Then in December Shih relinquished his position of CEO and president to Jason Chen, a senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, the world's leading contract microchip maker.
Senior executives have taken voluntary salary cuts of 30 percent since January as the company struggles financially.
Shih founded Acer in 1976 and built it into the world's second largest PC maker in its heyday, and one of the best known Taiwanese brands internationally, before retiring in 2004.

What matters: The Ravens are catching a break not having to play against QB Ben Roethlisberger this week. Roethlisberger's ability to extend plays with his feet has given the Ravens' defense fits over the years. Baltimore will instead have to prepare for backup Byron Leftwich, who has one of the stronger arms in the NFL, though he's prone to mistakes and is as immobile as they come. If Baltimore's front seven can generate any kind of pressure on Leftwich, the Ravens should be in good position when the fourth quarter rolls around.
Who matters: Though Leftwich hasn't started a game since 2009, he still has some speedy receivers in Mike Wallace and Emmanuel Sanders, and potentially Antonio Brown (ankle) if he can play, though that's not likely. The Ravens need cornerbacks Corey Graham and Chykie Brown to step up for the fallen Jimmy Smith (sports hernia surgery), who's out indefinitely. If Baltimore's secondary can force Leftwich to hold the ball in the pocket, then its defensive front will have some chances to rattle the 32-year-old veteran.
Key matchups: Baltimore's OL vs. Pittsburgh's front seven. The Steelers were surprisingly easy to run on for Kansas City this past Monday, with the Chiefs accounting for 142 rushing yards and a touchdown. Look for this game to be a throwback of sorts, with Ravens RBs Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce getting plenty of carries to try and wear Pittsburgh down. If Baltimore's offensive line can win the battle up front, then it could dictate how this game goes. ... Leftwich vs. Ravens S Ed Reed. In the past, Leftwich has taken his share of shots down the middle of the field. Reed, who's dealing with a plethora of injuries, still is one of the best football minds against the pass. If Reed can force Leftwich into some turnovers early, then momentum could quickly turn in Baltimore's favor.
Injuries of note: CB Smith will not play due to his aforementioned sports hernia surgery. DT Haloti Ngata has practiced all week and will be expected to play after sitting out during last week's game against Oakland. DE Pernell McPhee (thigh/knee) and NT Terrence Cody (arm) will be the most questionable for Sunday.
Inside stuff: A week ago, the Ravens opened up the offense and attacked the Raiders all game long. Look for a more conservative approach this week going against the No. 1 ranked defense on the road. Baltimore's success will depend on how Rice and Pierce perform.
Connections: Steelers LB James Harrison spent time on Baltimore's practice squad early in his career. He also played under Ravens DC Dean Pees in college, when Pees was the head coach at Kent State. ... Ravens LT Michael Oher and Steelers WR Wallace played college football together at Ole Miss from 2005-2008.
Stats you should know: Despite the yards allowed, the Ravens defense has came up with seven turnovers (five interceptions and two fumble recoveries) on third downs. This ties for second most in the NFL. ... Baltimore's defense ranks first in red-zone defense, allowing just 13 touchdowns inside the 20-yard line in 36 possessions.
Looking ahead: After Sunday night's game against Pittsburgh, the Ravens will travel to San Diego before hosting the Steelers.
Follow Ravens reporter Jason Butt on Twitter @CBSRavens and @JasonButtCBS.
If the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to take control of the AFC North on Sunday night at Heinz Field, they must do something they haven't accomplished since Ben Roethlisbergerjoined the NFL: beat the Baltimore Ravens without him.
That might be far from the only team Pittsburgh has to defeat without Roethlisberger in order to win the division. The Steelers' four-game win streak has brought them within a game of the North-leading Ravens. It will be Byron Leftwich trying to move them into a first-place tie because Roethlisberger has been ruled out. Pittsburgh is 0-4 against the Ravens without him since the star quarterback's 2004 rookie season.
However, the Steelers are 4-0 at home this year after a 16-13 overtime win over Kansas City on Monday, when Roethlisberger suffered a sprained shoulder after taking a hit in the third quarter. He underwent extensive testing Tuesday, and the following day it was revealed Roethlisberger also has a dislocated rib that is a bigger concern going forward because it could cut into his aorta.
"I can move (the arm) around, that's not the issue," he said. "Sometimes when I do move it the rib will kind of pop out of place again, which is pretty painful. I just try to keep it as still as I can for the most part."
There is no timetable for his return, but Roethlisberger doesn't believe the injuries will end his season even though he said Wednesday the pain level is "nine on a scale of 1-10."
That leaves Pittsburgh relying on a quarterback who hasn't made a start since 2009 with Tampa Bay and hasn't won one since Oct. 6, 2006, while with Jacksonville. Leftwich has since gone 0-6 as a starter.
"I try to prepare as if I am the starter every week," Leftwich said. "Nothing will change. I wish Ben the best. I hope he is healthy. Other than that I will be ready to go."
Leftwich came on in relief last week for his first regular-season action in nearly two years, going 7 of 14 for 73 yards. He led the Steelers on a touchdown drive, but they needed an interception in overtime to set up Shaun Suisham's game-winning field goal. Leftwich admitted to experiencing some rust.
"I'll trust his assessment if that's his assessment," coach Mike Tomlin said. "But I'm not overly concerned about it. We got a lot of ball in front of us this week. If he is the guy, he'll get a great opportunity to prepare and we'll expect him to play winning football." Leftwich will likely have Rashard Mendenhall in the backfield with him to help with the running game.
Mendenhall, who rushed for 1,273 yards two years ago, has missed the last four games because of an Achilles injury, but had no setbacks after a full week of practice. He will likely split time with Isaac Redman and Jonathan Dwyer, who each had 100-yard rushing games while Mendenhall was out.
The Ravens (7-2), meanwhile, are coming off their easiest win of the season. Baltimore set a club record for points in a 55-20 home win over Oakland last week. It was a welcome departure for a Baltimore team which had been making a living with close wins. The Ravens' previous five victories were by an average of 4.6 points.
Joe Flacco threw for 341 yards and three touchdowns for Baltimore, which scored on six of its first seven possessions and recorded two special teams TDs. "I think confidence is borne of success," coach John Harbaugh said. "When you do things well, it's a positive thing. It doesn't guarantee anything, just like if you're struggling the week before it doesn't guarantee that you can't do something. Every week does stand on its own, but playing well is a good thing. We'd like to build on that."
Baltimore's uncharacteristically poor defense could make it a little easier for Leftwich to settle in. The Ravens rank 27th in the league in yards allowed (390.2), including 26th against the pass (258.2), though their 10 interceptions rank sixth. They could get some help this week with defensive tackle Haloti Ngata (shoulder) and cornerback Jimmy Smith(groin) expected to return after sitting out against the Raiders.
The Steelers are hopeful their rushing attack can bounce back after Dwyer and Redman were held to a combined 77 yards on 27 carries last week. The ground game had at least 140 yards and 4.5 per carry in each of the previous three games.
The defense continues to play well and leads the NFL, allowing 265.7 yards a game. The dominance has mostly come without safety Troy Polamalu (calf), who has only played two games and is doubtful for Sunday. Safety Ryan Clark suffered his second concussion in three games against Kansas City, but Tomlin said he is fine. Against Pittsburgh's No. 1 pass defense (171.1 yards per game), Baltimore could look to getRay Rice a little more involved. Rice has 657 rushing yards and 7 TDs on the year but has carried the ball 47 times for 175 yards in the Ravens' last three games.
Baltimore has won 11 straight AFC North games, though its last divisional loss came to Pittsburgh on Dec. 5, 2010. The Ravens completed a season sweep of the Steelers last year with a 23-20 victory at Pittsburgh on Flacco's 26-yard touchdown pass to Torrey Smith with eight seconds to play.
