Criminal Law
Guide to Penal Law
What is Criminal Law?
Criminal law involves a system of legal rules designed to keep the public safe and deter wrongful conduct. Those who violate the law face incarceration, fines, and other penalties. The American criminal justice system is both complex, and adversarial in nature. With the exception of minor traffic violations, accused individuals will require the assistance of an attorney.
Specific crimes and the consequences for violating them are found in penal codes enacted by legislators at the local, state, and federal levels. Less serious crimes are classified as misdemeanors. These typically carry a maximum of up to one year in the county jail. Examples include petty theft, possession of small amounts of controlled substances, and first-offense drunk driving.
Crimes of a more serious nature are classified as felonies. These carry punishments of a year or more in state or federal prison. Felonies include violent crimes like murder, burglary, and rape, as well as white collar crimes like embezzlement and money laundering.
When questions arise as to how criminal statutes should be interpreted, judges and lawyers turn to previously issued court opinions dealing with the same issues. This principal is known as "stare decisis." It means that once a court issues a decision involving a given set of circumstances, that ruling is binding precedent for similar disputes that come before the court on a later date.
Law enforcement agencies have the responsibility of investigating alleged crimes. Procedural rules are in place to ensure police officers respect the constitutional rights of the citizens they investigate. When a defense attorney challenges the legality of a criminal prosecution, most times the dispute is a result of procedural violations by the police.
Protecting Your Rights.
Each stage of a criminal prosecution presents traps for defendants who are not familiar with the court system. Criminal defense attorneys are trained to prevent their clients from doing or saying things that will increase the likelihood of conviction. But when legal counsel has not been hired or appointed, accused individuals can unknowingly waive their rights and harm their own interests.
For example, following an arrest, law enforcement will question a suspect in regards to the crime. The officers will inform the suspect of his or her "Miranda rights" (right to remain silent, right to an attorney), and then attempt to elicit a confession. Without a lawyer present, defendants can make incriminating statements that will later be used against them in court.
In both misdemeanors and felonies, an arraignment will be held in open court. The judge will explain the nature of the charges to the defendant and ask for a plea. Without the assistance of an attorney, defendants will often plead guilty at this initial stage. By doing so, they are giving up important rights, as well as the opportunity to negotiate the terms of their sentence beforehand.
Discovery proceedings are another critical stage in a criminal case. This is when the defendant can demand that the prosecutor turn over copies of all of the evidence gathered by law enforcement. In DUI and DWI cases especially, the police reports, lab results, video recordings, and other items will likely determine whether the case settles or continues on to trial. To make informed decisions, the defendant must obtain these materials.
If the state fails to offer a plea bargain the defendant is willing to accept, the case will proceed to trial. This is the time to question witnesses and present argument to the jury. Conducting a trial is not for the layperson to attempt. Legal training is needed to perform effective cross-examination, comply with the rules of evidence, and so forth. After all, the outcome may determine whether the defendant walks free, or goes to jail.

- Are 3D Printed Plastic Guns Legal?
The arrival of 3D printing technology has led to some amazing new possibilities for things like replicating broken parts, creating amazing works of 3D art, and manufacturing entire items from patters found online. But, as is usually the case with any new technology, someone finds a way to use it for something sinister. Several creators invented 3D printed plastic guns and made plans available online. But, are these 3D printed plastic guns legal?
- How Do You Get Out of Jail After an Arrest?
Generally, one can get out of jail by posting bail. Bail is usually cash or a piece of property pledged to the court as part of a promise that the defendant (the person who has been arrested) will return to court when ordered to do so.
- How Much Can You Legally Get Away With Saying to a Cop?
First, a word of warning: doing anything to aggravate a police officer is a really bad idea. Not only are these hard working men and women who likely want to make the world a better place through their work, but they are trained bad asses with guns, handcuffs, and nightsticks and they can really make your life unpleasant.
- How to Get a Criminal Record Expunged
Expungement refers to the process of sealing arrest and conviction records. Virtually every state has enacted laws that allow people to expunge arrests and convictions from their records, but the details will vary from state to state.
- Is a Polygraph Test Admissible as Evidence?
Have you ever wondered why, in a system of justice that relies so heavily upon people telling the truth, every witness is not strapped to a polygraph machine (i.e., a lie detector)? It is a logical question that leads to others about how interrogations and investigations are conducted when polygraphs are used. So, is a polygraph test admissible as evidence?
- Saying No to Police Searches
Police are trained to believe in their authority and trained to perform their interactions with private citizens with confidence and strength.
- Victimized by the Law: Weird Examples of Penalties Against Crime Victims
For example, we have all heard the stories about the burglar who breaks into a home and injures himself then suing the homeowner.
- What Happens if I Am Not Read My Rights?
While many believe that if they are not "read their rights" they will escape punishment for criminal acts, it is not quite so clear cut. Instead, if one is not read their rights, then any evidence obtained from the suspect prior to being advised of their Miranda Rights may be inadmissible as evidence at trial.
- What is an Alibi and How Does it Work?
In simplest terms, an alibi is merely evidence that demonstrates a defendant in a criminal case was somewhere other than the scene of a crime at the time that the crime occurred.
- What is the Difference Between Jail and Prison?
At the most basic level, the fundamental difference between jail and prison is the length of stay for inmates.
- What Kinds of Defenses Can I Use in a Criminal Case?
All people accused of a crime are presumed innocent until proven guilty, either in a trial or as a result of pleading guilty.
- When Should You Accept a Plea Bargain in your Criminal Case?
Under that kind of stress, it can be very tempting to accept the first plea offer made to you by the prosecutor.

Q: P420 After New catalytic changed on 1998 Mazda 626
I have p400 code for about 2 years. This Feburary i changed catalytic because it got rust damaged. After that i got 3 times P303 which all happend on i starting drive on raining day. Recently i found there comes a new code p420. What are the possible reason can make these problems? I am going to change ignition coil. Is that gonna help?
P0400 is an EGR failure code. There's something wrong with your EGR system. P0303 means that you have a misfire on cylinder #3. That it happens in the rain suggests that the sparkplug wire or insulator boots are leaky and shorting to the engine in the wet. Check for arcing sparkplug wires. P0420 indicates that the catalytic converter efficiency is below specification. Sounds like 3 separate problems to me. Address them one by one. Probably it's not an ign coil... http://repairpal.com/directory?address=16820&car_brand_names=Mazdahttp://repairpal.com/estimator?car_type_id=2421

Miami FL – July 21, 2005 – Jcx.Software today announced the immediate availability
of VS.Php version 1.3. This release extends the Php editor for Visual Studio
.Net by supporting inline html editing. The editor provides intellisense support
for Html 4.0 tags as well as html attributes and events.
VS.Php 1.3 also improves intellisense support with two new features, auto suggest
and intellisense filtering. Auto-suggest feature provides suggestions while
typing code. Intellisense filtering lets the user narrow the content of the
intellisense combo box based on what has been typed so far. This helps the developer
finding the entry of interest quicker. As the user types, the list will narrow
down. If the user deletes characters, the list grows back to match the remaining
selected text.
Jcx.Software founder, J. Rivera explains: "In this release we focused
on improving the productivity of the developer. We introduced a group of key
features to make development faster and more enjoyable. The auto-suggest feature
speeds up development by reducing the number of keystrokes the user has to type.
Html intellisense for Php files helps users build scripts that generate complex
html pages. All tags, attributes and events have useful tool tips to help the
developer. VS.Php is a powerful tool for serious Php developers."
This release also lets users deploy individual files at any time. This is useful
while debugging in which the developer make changes to Php scripts. With 1.3,
the developer can simply select the file changed and deploy it to the server
without stopping the debug session. This speeds up the development process for
the developer.
A demonstration of the new capabilities can be found here:
Founded in 2001, Jcx.Software Corp. has been a leader in providing Php development
tools and solutions. Jcx.Software is a Microsoft Visual Studio Integration Partner.

A powerful winter storm has hit the East Coast with freezing rain, snow and Arctic cold.
About 2,250 flights were cancelled, Washington's airports were shut down, and schools and local governments were closed. The storm was the latest of a series of weather systems to pummel the US.
The storm was expected to blanket the US capital with up to 9 inches of snow as it swept from the Mississippi Valley to the Carolinas and Mid-Atlantic states, the National Weather Service said.
Brian Hurley, a weather service meteorologist, said temperatures would be about 15 degrees Celsius below normal as a cold front gripped from the Great Plains to the Atlantic coast.
Although the snow is expected to bypass northern cities including New York and Boston, by early on Monday New York's temperature had already peaked at -5 C, he said.
"This is yet another in a series of arctic outbreaks all winter," Hurley said.
Freeze warnings were in place from the Canadian border into Texas. The main electric grid operator for most of Texas issued a conservation alert due to expected higher power demand.
The storm shrouded the Capitol in snow and prompted the US government to shutter its Washington area offices, keeping hundreds of thousands of federal workers at home. Congress put off scheduled votes because of the bad weather.
The governors of New Jersey, Delaware, Mississippi and Tennessee declared states of emergency, and schools and local governments throughout the area closed. Maryland state offices shut down and West Virginia state workers were on a delayed schedule.
In Philadelphia's downtown Gallery mall, Juanita Thomas, 57, was waiting to go to her local bank, which planned to open two hours late due to the storm. She had no complaints about the repeated snowstorms that have clogged the city's streets and shut down schools.
"I wish it would have snowed on Christmas for my grandkids," Thomas said. "God's giving it all to us now."

Can't use World Wind Java into a maven project because of dependencies
I a am trying to use World Wind Java into a Maven project.
First method would be to take their SDK here and all dependencies in build path.
But I want to make it more maven compliant.
First dependency : jogl-all.jar. SDK v2.0.0 seems to use v2.1.5 of JOGL (from manifest).
Hence I put this in my pom file:
Here is my issue : two jar files are very different in size, and moreover, with JOGL jar from SDK, I can import
com.jogamp.opengl.awt.GLCanvas, while with maven retrieved JAR, I can't.
I don't understand how I can get two different behaviors/JARs while using exact same version.
Any clue ? Any other experience using World Wind Java within Maven project ?
Thank you for your help,
2 Answers
If you want to use a library in Maven you should add the dependency to your project, there is no need to hunt for all transitive dependencies (unless the docs say otherwise). For the world wind I found the dependency on this site: http://maven-repository.com/artifact/gov.nasa/worldwind/2.0.0-986
It should work.
One of the advantages of using Maven is that there is no need to know every jar needed to use every library, Maven will manage this. In this case, the World Wind Maven dependency has it's own POM that declares all needed dependencies. Maven will scan all POMs from all dependencies and will download all required JARs when needed.
There is no technical restriction having two files with the same name on different locations with different content. Though I'd not recommended this - especially with library artifacts. This confuses people, like you, and drive them crazy sooner or later.
Why WorldWind Java team did that? Ask Responsible NASA Official: Patrick Hogan.

From Basic Water Treatment, Third Edition
The 1998 European Drinking Water Directive includes an arsenic standard of 10 ?g/l, reduced from 50 ?g/l in the 1980 Directive. This has meant that arsenic-removal plants are having to be considered for some British water sources. Some arsenic removal may occur in treatment plants using ion exchange, activated carbon adsorption or coagulation and filtration for iron-removal plants, but it has not been necessary in the past to design plants for arsenic removal.
The processes that can be used for arsenic removal are either adsorption onto a suitable media or reverse osmosis. Unless there are other water-quality issues that require reverse osmosis treatment, adsorption will normally be preferred. The process involves passing water through a bed of adsorbent media. Possible adsorbents include:
granular ferric hydroxide;
activated alumina; and
bone char.
Ion-exchange resins and activated carbon may also be used.
Activated alumina and granular ferric hydroxide are considered to be the most likely adsorbents for a dedicated arsenic-removal plant. The design issues that need to be considered are the same as for other adsorptive processes: contact time; hydraulic loading rate, absorptive capacity; and backwashing/regeneration. The quality of the feed water needs to be high, with low turbidity and solids so adsorption is appropriate only for high-quality groundwater or treated surface waters. EBCT is normally a minimum of around 5 min. The permissible hydraulic loading rate depends on the particular media used, maxima of 10 20 m/h are appropriate. However in practice the acceptable hydraulic loading rate may be...

"Oh please, please keep these cool and original ideas for white tee shirts coming! I love these. The Tulip cannon paint technique/kit seems like the coolest thing since sliced bread. I am new to paint and stencils for clothing items, so if I seem overly excited that would explain it. I'd like to make a shirt exactly as shown. The orange and the pink are so very trendy."

"It has been my long term goal to be able to jazz up an existing top and make it my own by adding a lace inset such as this. Really! I always have all these great ideas in my head but seeing as how I am not a seamstress, I never know how to go about it. So, thank you very much for this simple to execute lace inset design with instructions. I like that it uses washable glue!"
"After reading this super fast and easy DIY, so many uses come to mind for this spray paint tie dye technique! Wouldn't it look so cool on a 100% cotton white sheet set? Flat, fitted, and the pillow cases, too! Oh my gosh, for your student's dorm room! Also, buy your shirts and cotton shorts from Michaels craft stores when they're on sale. How about using more than one color spray paint? Make stripes. Actually, that would be pretty difficult and painstaking to do because you'd have to alternately cover the accordion folds and be real careful not to get fly away paint to land where you don't want it to. In any case, I love this craft!"
"The pinwheel quilt pattern is one of my favorites! I made pinwheel baby quilt many years ago when my son was a newborn. I especially love this pillow, because it allows quilters to learn how to make the pattern on a much smaller scale than it would be with a quilt. This pillow would make a great gift for just about anyone!"

Question about Dell Inspiron 6000 Notebook
Unfortunately my laptop is not reading any audio cd nor any softwares cd. however it is working fine with DVD ..could you please help what i should do...reminding in mind it is both a cd and dvd player
Posted by vansuri1 on
The majority of the time when the drives stops reading either CD's or DVD's, it's a failed reader board in the drive. The drive has two reader boards in it, one for CD's, and one for DVD's, one can go out and the other will work fine because they are two separate boards or reading systems. It's common for the CD board to go out and leave the DVD intact, simply because the CD board has 10 times more use. Most likely you will have to replace the drive, however, there are a couple of other things that can cause it to do this, they are rare, but still occur occasionally. Start by uninstalling the drivers for the CD/DVD drive from the device manager, then reboot. The machine will find the drive automatically, and reinstall the drivers. If it's a glitch, this will cure it. You can also try a lens cleaning kit. You can get one at Walmart or Bestbuy for around $10. It's extremely rare that a dirty lens would cause this, but it won't hurt to rule it out. If these don't work, then unfortunately, your only option is to replace the drive.

Sometimes the truth is hard to take. Other times it's just plain hard to find. Although I may not agree with everything at the sites I list, I believe there is truth to be found in each one. It is up to the reader to reach his or her own conclusions on the veracity of anything found at these sites. Most of the materials in the video and photo sections are my own. Those which originated elsewhere are identified. Documents have come from many sources. Some of the material here is not directly related to the JFK assassination, but applies to other forms of government corruption.
There are certain things which show up in every version of the film I have studied, from the Warren Commission's 1964 still-frames to the MPI videotape version released in 1998, and these things are in the same places and of the same type in each version. Some have changed over time and appear slightly differently in some versions. Furthermore, additional items of the same type have been introduced into the MPI (video) version which could not have been present in any film version since they are outside the frame area of the film. They were introduced into the "black" borders around the film frames as the video was being produced.
Everyone I have shown this evidence can see it quite easily. Once these tricks are exposed, anyone can find them. This is not the only evidence of fakery that exists but it is probably the most easily understood by people who are not familiar with the physics of photography and more specifically the physics of motion picture photography.
I am no longer calling this "alteration" because there seems to be no good evidence suggesting that what is called "The Zapruder Film" was ever materially different than what is shown today nor is there good evidence that Mr. Zapruder was the maker of the film. In other words, this film almost certainly started out as a fake and has only undergone minor changes (which can certainly be called alterations) through the years. Mr. Zapruder could not even testify with any confidence that the film bearing his name was actually the film he made. See his testimony to the Warren Commission for greater understanding. When he indicated confusion about the images he was shown and about why certain objects appeared in the locations they did, there was an abrupt change in the course of his questioning (or portions of his testimony were deleted). His confusion was not resolved.
Another reason for avoiding calling these things "alterations" is that people sometimes get the wrong ideas in their heads when they hear that word and say things like "I think frames may be missing or there may have been editing, but I don't think the film was altered." Do these people realize what they're saying? If frames are missing and there was editing, then what is left if not an altered film? People who are normally intelligent have said many silly, illogical things on this issue.
What I know about this film and what I've found in it and its many versions goes far beyond what is at the link below. The rest is simply harder for most people to understand.
Click here to learn more about this discovery.
Also see the videos listed below.
These movies are playable on Macs and Windows PCs with either RealPlayer 8 (and later versions) or Quicktime 4, Quicktime 3 (and possibly even with Quicktime 2). Use the proper player as appropriate for each file. If you don't have Quicktime, download it from Apple Computer or TUCOWS. If you don't have RealPlayer, download it from RealNetworks.
The following panoramas are from the viewpoints of several of the people who took movies in Dealey Plaza on 11/22/63. They may not be perfect, but will still give an indication of what can be seen from each position. (The footage for the Arnold panorama was not taken with a panorama in mind, thus it shows quite a bit of distortion.)

Please Help
I am trying to install OpenFOAM-1.5 on my desktop on Ubuntu 9.04.
I followed the installation instructions but I keep getting hung up on the last step.
I try to source the bashrc file first, but it gives me this output.
rockey@ubuntu:~$ source $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc
Warning in /home/sumontro/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/settings.sh
Cannot find /home/sumontro/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/gcc-4.3.1/platforms/linux installation.
Please install this compiler version or if you wish to use the system compiler,
change the WM_COMPILER_INST setting to 'System' in this file
bash: ./home/sumontro/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc: No such file or directory
then I change the compiler to system and this is what I get
rockey@ubuntu:~$ source $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc
bash: ./home/sumontro/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc
No such file or directory
I am a new user to Linux and I have very little programming experience.
However, I need to get OpenFOAM working. I would really appreciate the help.
There are a couple of details that you run into setting up OpenFOAM - check out the instructions here:
...and let me know if it works. The installation comes with everything you need (including openmpi), but changing the lines in your /home/<yourname>/.bashrc file to reference it all is a little tricky.
And you have to remove the lines if you want to compile other software besides OpenFOAM.

What speakers are good???
Hey guys, Im planning to change my speakers with tweeters. I wanna get high quality sound. I need help to choose that fit perfectly, 2003 530I sport, seems like I have 6 tweeters and for speakers. Theres a huge discussion about that some speakers dont match with factory units, decibels, ohms, watts etc. I dont wanna mess my factory, coz I have factory navigation, changer, cassette and stuff, I really wanna keep it in good condition. Any suggestions? Please give me all info that I need. BTW, I will Install them by myself. Thanks
Look at MB Quart. Many have been satisfied with them.
1 Attachment(s)
BavarianSoundworks has some highly regarded component speakers but they are a bit pricey. Your front door woofers are 5.25" You can replace the woofer and the tweeters with any reputable (Infinity, Boston Acoustics, etc.) 5.25" component set (~$200). Leave the midranges. The DIY is on YouTube. Search e39 speaker installation. This is a fairly significant noticeable improvement in clarity and definition.
The rear deck speakers (assuming you do not have the DSP) are basic 5.25". I found that replacing the rear deck speakers with higher quality coaxials made little noticeable difference in sound quality. I would guess the same goes for the rear doors although I haven't tried that yet. Note: the rear deck also has a depth limitation, limiting your speaker choice.
A subwoofer is really needed to round out the low end. However, most subs (Basslink et al) require a good amount of trunk space, which compromises cargo capacity (for golf clubs). You may also need to port into the main cabin to get maximum effect. I installed an rear armrest subwoofer (Blaupunkt Thb-200A) because I don't need thumping bass, wanted something hidden & removeable and didn't want to modify the car. About $200 installed. It hides behind the flap. Works fine for this old Deadhead. My DIY:
basically your sound system settup can be as nice as much as your willing to spend on it.
basically if you know what your doing u can make a sound system play and sound nice with out having to hit your pocked to hard.. you got to think about who are you intending to play music for, are you going to listen to this music for your self while your driving or you are planing to show off with a decibel drag settup.. if you are looking for competition speakers thats a completely different settup from somewhat audiophile touch.
if you decided that you dont want to add to much weight to your car and you just want to have a nice quality sound system then you might need the following.
you want to buy a component speakers to replace the existing factory drivers and tweeters, with the following brands:
- boston acustics ( very high quality / high price )
- focal audio ( very high quality / high price )
- zapco ( some crazy quality sh!t )
- MB Quarts ( high quality / high price )
- cervin vega ( good quality for a good price )
im sure there is plenty more but these would be my top best picks.
now if you want a subwoofer you can buy this nice subwoofer kit from BSW, but what i plan on doing is to build my own sub enclosure and put one of the following drivers in there:
- RE audio - ( i specifically to buy the slim sub they make to save on weight and size, but i have installed in the past a 12" XXX which was powered by a 3000 watt RMS amp and that was extremely loud with awesome quality.. )
- Adire audio bramah ( i seen this sub brake the door hinge of cars from the base)
- zapco ( good sh!t )
there is plenty of good not so mainstream brands that make good subwoofers but i guess thats for u to explore
now to power all these speakers u need a amp, i plan on using the factory amp for the component speakers, but u might decide to run these from a seperate amp then u will need a 4 channel amp, as for the subwoofer your looking to find a mono channel amp,
brands that i have had experience with and i know they make good amps:
- zapco
- HiFonics
- sound stream
- phenix gold
- orion
and if you are looking to run a high power system u might need additional power source so your light don't dim out the best solution for this is to get a Batcap model 400 made by Xtatic,
regular cylindric type capacitors are just expensive and in-efficient with the power storage.
good luck with your system if you do decide to do some crazy sh!t make sure all your hardware is secured and u might want to consider sound proofing the car using dynomat.
Thanks guys, now I know some nice brands speakers, coz of you. I thought that Alpine is good, I was gonna go for it. I just wanna specify what I want, I just want to increase loudness a little, and really increase quality of the sound, but only by changing speakers and tweeters. Is that possible? Should I match Ohms, decibels, watts with factory stereo so it wont sound creepy ??????? Or...?! I just dont know.
If you keep your existing head unit and amp and simply replace the stock speakers with more efficient, higher quality component front door speakers, you will increase overall volume, clarity and definition. You won't get much improvement in the low end as the 5.25" speaker are just too small to produce the lower end of the audio spectrum. If you add any kind of subwoofer, it should be powered as there is not enough power in the OEM amp. As the previous poster said, it all depends on how much you are willing to spend. The sky is the limit when it comes to audio.
From a technical perspective, ohms is a measure of resistance (impedance for speakers). If you replace an 8 ohm speaker with a 4 ohm speaker, it will be more efficient, typically generating a greater volume (sound pressure level, SPL) at the same level of power (watts) applied. So if you want louder sound without changing your amp, go with a speaker with lower resistance (ohms). Decibels is a measure of the loudness and is the units of SPL. Comparing SPL of different speakers is tough because those levels are often given for different power levels and are measured at different distances. Be sure to compare apples to apples. Watts is the measure of power output from your amp. If you increase your power, you can increase your loudness, assuming your speaker can translate that additional power into greater loudness without distortion. Some can't. Higher quality ones can.
Unless you have deep pockets or are a serious audiophile, you are probably more inclined to do incremental improvements vs. a complete system upgrade. I would recommend you first replace the front door speakers with higher quality, more efficient (lower impedance) component speakers. Once you've done that, listen and determine if you want more bass. Then consider the various options for a subwoofer.
what ever you do dont go with audio bann speakers..... the sound aint like i thought it would be for the price..... just had them changed last week to memphis audio components WOW what a sound, nice and clear..
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but aren't dual coil speakers required if you want to add the Bluetooth retrofit or if you already have it and want to retain it?
I was looking for the front door speakers as well. Crutchfield have a good variety and some speakers are 2-way and 3-way. Which ones should I get 2-way or 3 way? non DSP stereo
Crutchfield = overpriced .
also 2-way and 3-way speakers are not that good,.. i have worked with a few, and seen couple cars with them,.. they are honestly way over rated and trully suck.... you should go with component speakers that comes with a driver / twitter / crossover set
i found a couple good deals on ebay stores, amazon, onlinecarstereo.com,
http://www.sonicelectronix.com has good deals.
You might also want to check out these guys: http://www.woofersetc.com/
I got some CDT components for the front doors of my 540i that made a significant difference immediately at a very reasonable price. Good luck no matter what you select.
I have Diamond Audio components in the front and Diamond Audio coax in the rear. I also have 2 JL Audio W6 subs all powered by a JL Audio 300/4 and 500/1 amps. I've had this setup on my car since October 2003, one month after getting my car new in September 2003. It still sound excellent to me after all these years.

Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has an on-line decision tool for lung screening. The tool incorporates information from occupational exposures such as asbestos. Exposure to asbestos is a known factor that enhances the risk of lung cancer.
The Task Force is providing an opportunity for public comment on this draft recommendation statement until August 26. All public comments will be considered as the Task Force develops its final recommendation.
Based on the available evidence, the Task Force recommends screening people who are at high risk for lung cancer with annual low-dose CT scans, which can prevent a substantial number of lung cancer related deaths. This is a grade B draft recommendation.
Smoking is the biggest risk factor for developing lung cancer, resulting in about 85 percent of lung cancers in the United States. The risk for developing lung cancer also increases with age, with most lung cancers occurring in people age 55 or older.
"The more you smoke over time, the more at risk you are for lung cancer. When deciding who should be screened, clinicians will need to assess the person's age, overall health, how much the person has smoked, and whether the person is still smoking or how many years it has been since the person quit," says Task Force co-vice chair Michael LeFevre, M.D., M.S.P.H. "This evaluation will help clinicians decide whether it may be beneficial to screen a given person."
After reviewing the evidence, the Task Force determined that you can reach a reasonable balance of benefits and harms by screening people who are 55 to 80 years old and have a 30 pack year or greater history of smoking, who are either current smokers or have quit in the past fifteen years. A "pack year" means that someone has smoked an average of one pack of cigarettes per day for a year.
For example, a person reaches 30 pack years of smoking history by smoking a pack a day for 30 years or two packs a day for 15 years.
"Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States and a devastating diagnosis for more than two hundred thousand people each year," says Task Force chair Virginia Moyer, M.D., M.P.H. "Sadly, nearly 90 percent of people who develop lung cancer die from the disease, in part because it often is not found until it is at an advanced stage. By screening those at high risk, we can find lung cancer at earlier stages when it is more likely to be treatable."
Dr. LeFevre also cautions, "It's important to remember that helping smokers stop smoking and protecting non-smokers from exposure to tobacco smoke are the most effective ways to decrease the sickness and death associated with lung cancer. In addition, people who quit smoking will continue to see their risk go down over time. Screening for lung cancer is beneficial, but it is not an alternative to quitting smoking."
The Task Force's draft recommendation statement has been posted for public comment on the Task Force Web site at www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org. Comments can be submitted from July 30 to August 26 at www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/tfcomment.htm. The Task Force is an independent, volunteer panel of national experts in prevention and evidence based medicine that works to improve the health of all Americans by making evidence-based recommendations about clinical preventive services such as screenings, counseling services, and preventive medications.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
Some people in these offices snidely refer to NorthPark as the rich, white people's mall. We have a lot of class anger here at the Observer. You might have noticed. Obviously, some of our broke-ass, reverse-snobbish staff haven't been to NorthPark in awhile, because a trip there is a like a world tour in air-conditioned comfort, with no TSA and more familiar food. Walk NorthPark's long, art-filled halls, and we promise you'll hear more languages and see more saris, hijabs, stylish sagging and straight-up high and avant-garde fashion than anywhere this side of Manhattan. Goth girls and punks, hip-hoppers and models rub shoulders with hoi polloi, the rich and the in-between here, making for the best people-watching in Dallas, inspiring us to quote Willy Shakes: "O, wonder! How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in't!" Fancy, eh? And, ya know, the shopping is pretty freakin' awesome too. Think NorthPark is uniformly out of your price range? Well, yes, it can be, but when you're done watching people, take a look at what's in the shops. You'll be surprised at what you can walk away with, feeling fancy without going broke.
Beverage Depot is the size of a grocery store, but the food groups here are "vodka," "whiskey" and "Scotch." Checkout lines are long and aisles crowded on Friday nights as customers load up on bargain booze from the well organized selection of wines, beers and spirits. Imported wines at low prices are a specialty. Looking for a fine Australian vintage? They have more than 25. We'll drink to that, mate.
Occupying prime retail space in Deep Ellum, Epocha boutique and art gallery specializes in men's hard-to-find sneakers. Rare editions of Pumas and Asics are there, along with lesser-known brands. Steps from the colorful shoe rack hang a large selection of men's vintage coats. Shop here for unique streetwear and hip-hop looks and quality goods from the recent past. Epocha sometimes hosts events, serving drinks to Dallas' most fashionably offbeat folk. If you can't afford the footwear, you can at least enjoy the free people-watching.
Oliver Peck is the local ink star who founded the Friday the 13th tattoo marathons. On those nights on the calendar, Peck and his coworkers at Elm Street Tattoo put on a show. With lines snaking out the door, people wait to get a tattoo for just $13 — on the condition that it must have the number "13" somewhere in the design. (The store also asks for a $7 tip, so it's a $20 deal). The bargain night has become a rite of passage for body art enthusiasts. Peck's the top talent but his assistants are masters, too. You're lucky to get ink from any of them.
One Saturday a month, the back room of the independently owned Pet Supplies Plus on Lower Greenville offers discount vaccines, drawing lots of dog owners and yapping, furry friends who sense that something's up. Be assured that the vets here work with sensitivity, patience and care. This store is open every day of the week and often holds adoption events.
Jewel Ybarra is a Dallas cyclist who taught herself to sew. She is the creator of Ellum Bag Works, selling handmade, locally sourced gear and apparel to local bike shops and from her Etsy page. Her specialty is cycling caps — light, breezy caps that absorb the sweat under a helmet. No corporate logos on these, just Ybarra's unique fabrics (batiks, tweeds, moleskins) and designs that appeal to all sorts of riders.

Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) said in a statement Wednesday that he expects the public safety first responder network will be included in the congressional deal to extend the payroll tax holiday.
"We've made great progress and are very close to a historic milestone—creation of a new nationwide communications network for our first responders," Rockefeller said in a statement Tuesday.
"My expectation is that we will be able to include this legislative language in the compromise payroll deal that is close to being finalized. Although we continue to hash out some of the finer points of the legislation, the end result should be the same: a new communications network that will save lives and generate economic growth."
Congressional negotiators tentatively agreed late Tuesday to extend the payroll tax holiday, unemployment benefits and Medicare payment rates for doctors.
Rockefeller has been a strong supporter for creation of the network, which would reallocate the D Block of spectrum for use by public safety officials across the country.
In an analyst note, Paul Gallant of the Washington Research Group said that the bill will "almost certainly" authorize the Federal Communications Commission to auction broadcast TV and government spectrum to pay for the network. This move, he said, will not include limits on bidding by large operators, helping wireless carriers such as AT&T and Verizon strengthen their spectrum portfolios.
Gallant also said that he believes the final bill will be a "hybrid" of the Republican recommendation that the network be governed at the state level and the Democratic plan, which calls for a federal body to oversee the network's creation and operation.
The auctions are included to help pay for the payroll tax holiday extension package. The network is an added incentive, since it was a key recommendation of the 9/11 commission.

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Hi I'm just wondering about a few things, I have been going to a psykiatrist now for 2 weeks and its the first time I have done this, probably because its the first time I have been forced to deal with issues. (just got married) And I feal that I have felt this depressive state many times before along with short periods were I do way more stuff that I normally never would do. I have a tendensy to lie alot to ''close'' friends and family just to get away and be alone (in happy and bad days) It seems to me that I have a problem of finishing ideas or thoughts on a dayly basis. Sometimes when I look back at my life I wonder why I am where I am now and how many different personalitys I've had to fit social settings so I can ''outlive it''. I can right now say that there are things that I would want to do in life, but tomorrow I dont know if I have the energy to actually finish. I have alot of questions but I should just start with this.
Sorry to keep you waiting. Are you available for a live chat?
Thank you for your post. You have taken a big step in seeking out help for the "issues" you refer to. Congratulations on that and on getting married. It takes courage to seek out help for personal issues.
Hello, thank you for joining me!
I have been searching in my thoughts and habits and after doing this i fear I have the bipolar 2 disorder.
Sorry for my bad english, I am norwegian
Getting married can motivate you to get better!! It can be scary realizing a diagnosis- I can understand you perfectly
What do you fear?
I fear it isnt something wrong with me and that I'm just like this.
Mood disorders are treatable, but do need to follow dr. recommendations and medications. You are dealing with a mood disorder, it does not have to define you.
Many people are dealing, coping with a mood disorder.
There is nothing "wrong" with you, it's more about you are struggling right now- it is not "who" you are.
Ok, my brother and mother are both bipolar does that make it more likely that I have some sort of biologic
Once you know what you are dealing with, you can get the help you need, and deserve- to make your future better for you and your new wife/family. The first and most important step is defining the problem so you can seek a solution and treatment. Yes it would make you more vulnerable for the same.
It's difficult realizing this may be the case- similar to your brother and mother?
I know i am not bipolar 1 because I have seen this full blown, but I have many simularites with both of them but not exactly the same
It can be genetic, yes, similar to other illnesses. You did not ask for this nor create this, but now have to take a close look at what you are dealing with, get the treatment you need, and that is typically medication. Right, you may just have traits not full blown.
If you address and treat this early you will have a better outcome- to avoid "full blown".
Ok what could be the alternative diagnoses? Is it that I am just lazy or distre by nature?
The doctor will treat your symptoms specifically. It's a big first step to see a psychiatrist. You said you were forced to go? You have more on the line and want to be healthy in your marriage.
What are your symptoms?
I am quickly sad, get angry when pressured, shy away from people. I am in a state were I cant remember when I was outgoing but when I am I am always in the middle of everything talking alot, i feel like im almost narcicistic
Some of what you describe, like lying can be a learned behavior, or a coping mechanism- something you learned to get through life. Some of those coping mechanisms we develop when young we do not need anymore- but we continue them, such as the lying. This is all part of the first step- identify specifically the problems.
Do you have trouble concentrating, organizing yourself, focusing?
My mom and dad thought in a early age that i maybe had adhd
That's what I was wondering.
Often to be diagnosed with adult adhd there needs to be a history when younger.
They took a test and i wasnt diagnosed when I was a child
Your doctor may want you to tested for adhd, and other symptoms
Sometimes it can be a mild form as a child
Your parents had the most contact with you- It's hard sometimes pin pointing a specific diagnosis- more important to report those symptoms and get treatment for the symptoms.
You took a big first step in seeing the dr.
You are headed in the right direction
Thank you
You are welcome!
Be really specific with your dr. about your symptoms- write them down as you remember and experience them.
Ok but I have difficulties remembering states I recall are abit ''hi''. What does that tell you? If anything
You are not alone in what you describe- there is good treatment out there. High energy, manic?
Certainly that can be a trait of adhd or mood disorder.
I thought I was very energetic before and now It only comes and goes mostly downs
It may be a good idea to take someone with you to the dr. another person who observes you. It is hard identifying those yourself sometimes.
My wife was with me the second time I visited the doctor
Good, keep her involved
Did the dr. give you medication?
remeron anti depressives
15 mg
Medication can be a trial and error- do not despair if the first med does not work- takes a couple sometimes to get it right.
Stick with the med- it can take time to work.
Ok thanks for everything
You are welcome- you sound motivated- that will help you lots.
Let me know if I can help again.
will do
Best wishes on your journey and in your marriage!!
Please rate my answer okay or higher so I can get credit. Much appreciated!!

I can't remember the name of the app we use, I'll let you know tomorrow when I'm in the office, but for now give this a spin:
it's free, so it won't hurt to try.
Jul 15, 2009 at 6:27 UTC
Or, the second hit you get when you type that exact question into google
Jul 15, 2009 at 6:32 UTC
Right, Timmy, I am not an idiot. I can google and did. What I was asking for was personal experience with the product and references.
If you have used and like HelloPDF, then please say so. Otherwise don't assume I am not smart enough to do my job. I have read the "Why I don't post" thread as well.

I have used primopdf and it's pretty good, small install and kinda fast.
EDIT: Sorry should have said Nitro.
there is also a Microsoft save as pdf, whihc might be better suited for you as it keeps the flavours to a minimum.

I'm back in the office, so I've got the name now.
We use Able2Extract. Personnally I've not used it much for convertion into word (once I think and that was ages ago), I use it mainly for excel convertions and that works very-very reliably. Though it's not free. You can trial it, but I think in trial mode it only converts the first three pages or something like that.

@GPB & @ DBeer:
It is good to know that there are still some people in the forums that actually read the questions and formulate a good answer before posting.
I will continue to investigate along the options given me.
Thanks again.

I am not sure if you have tried this application yet or not, but I have found it useful: http:/

This is a request I get from time to time from our Sales Department. The 'free pdf to word converter' file mentioned has never worked for me. For example, a 14MB pdf from GSA turned into a 684MB(!!!) Word document. The process took forever, and when it finally finished, the document would not open. This was probably due to the fact that this may have been a scanned pdf document.
If you should encounter something like this, here is the solution:
Download and install the open source pdfcreator software. Open the pdf in question. Print the file with pdfcreator and save it in TIFF format. Open the .tif file with Microsoft Document Imaging. There is a button on a toolbar (you may have to tell it to show the toolbar) that runs the file through OCR and opens it in Word. Not the simplest or most elegant solution, but it works OK.
Jul 22, 2009 at 11:33 UTC
I use zamzar.com. It's free. It's online so I don't have to waste the time to find a working convertor and install it. It's not perfect, the formatting gets messed up sometimes, but for the most part it gives me the file in .doc format so that I can edit and fix the formatting errors. Occasionally it gives me .doc file with an image of the text in it instead of the actual text, I never really thought about it but I guess that could be due to the scanned pdf problem that the others mentioned.
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
