The cheapest domestic air fares have hit a record low price as weak demand forces carriers to offer discounts to fill cabins.
The cheapest fares on domestic routes fell 18.5 per cent in April, and are down 28 per cent from a high in September last year, according to figures from the Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics.
The BITRE Domestic Airfare Index, which does not give fares but expresses them as an index, now stands at 50.8 for cheapest domestic fares, its lowest point since records began in 1992.
Prices of business-class air fares also fell significantly, down 8 per cent from the previous month, with economy fares nudging 1 per cent lower.
Deutsche Bank chief economist Tony Meer said while the price of standard economy-class fares was stabilising, carriers were still discounting heavily in an attempt to fill planes.
"If you want to maximise your profit on a flight and you're selling more tickets at full economy but still have 20 seats in cattle class you haven't sold, you might drop them down to maximise your return," Mr Meer said.
He said an early Easter this year also probably contributed to the fare price tumble by pulling seasonal holiday traffic into March and pressuring carriers to drop April fares.
Virgin Blue reported weaker than expected demand in April and said bookings for the rest of the year are slower than expected. The carrier has revised down its profit forecast to the lower end of its $80 million to $100 million range as a result.
Webjet managing director
Aviation analysts said falling prices for business-class fares were bad news for Qantas and Virgin Blue, which relied heavily on the corporate market.
Globally, 2009 was a horror year for the aviation sector, with passenger demand sagging 3.5 per cent and freight loads dropping 10 per cent, according to the International Air Transport Association. Australia managed to attract about 5.6 million international visitors – just 1700 fewer than 2008 – but airlines were forced to discount heavily to maintain demand.
Specialist corporate travel management company TravelCorp said many firms had not increased travel budgets this year after slashing them in the downturn, despite the turnaround in the economy.
Chief executive Helen Logas said the firm did not expect business travel to reach pre-global financial crisis levels until 2012.
The Tourism and Transport Forum said the strong Australian dollar was damaging the domestic market by luring locals overseas. National manager, aviation, Caroline Wilkie, said she hoped a new push by Tourism Australia would "encourage Australians to explore their own back yard".

Strange to see the market falling alongside a continued of positive reads from various global data pools, huh? It shouldn't be a shocker given this from Monday. But, in case you did miss that here are three things to get the mind straight:
- The Russell 2000 has underperformed the Dow and Nasdaw since November 4 by a full percentage or so.
- Stocks are reacting negatively to favorable data, and the probability of a non-farm employment report that satisfies Fed qualifications for less liquidity. You can also see this in the reduced upward velocity in 2013's leading stocks, for example Starbucks (SBUX). Here comes the early pricing in of the 2014 taper, baby!
- Mobile spending this holiday season has been robust, physical stores the opposite. That divergence says the economy is in such a position that the consumer is unable, or unwilling, to double spend. Double spending usually involves a credit card. An economy not double spending is one that surprises investors negatively in 2014 as more focus is paid to the actions of business and people and less on artificial stimulus.
No reason to panic yet but be mindful of the new messages the market is sending.
J.C. Penney LOL
"Have I lost my usual amazing touch on analyzing retailers", I wondered while watching the J.C. Penney (JCP) sales numbers hit the wires on Tuesday evening. Wow, +10.1% comp. That was likely so far above Macy's (M) it's not even funny. The shares popped instantly. A couple bottom lines.
- J.C. Penney shares are trading off its directional sales numbers; this is a company still poised to show a fourth quarter 2013 loss despite positive sales.
- J.C. Penney is cycling its easiest comp compare of 2013 in the fourth quarter.
- J.C. Penney's "stellar" comp is a byproduct of more clearance items and 50% off signage. In that regard, and considering the comparisons, J.C. Penney's November comp should have been higher.
As I said recently, if you are a trader, by all means do the dance on J.C. Penney. However, I simply want to see more for my clients before anointing J.C. Penney the "Comeback Kid Award of 2014." The sane department store play remains Macy's, or a top vendor selling into both companies, such as Nike (NKE).
Tech Observation
I was sitting in a greenroom Tuesday (for this personal finance segment: ) chatting with the head of mobile for LG, who was there to provide color on one of three, new curved glass "G-Flex" phones from his company in all of North America. What I was trying to ascertain, unbeknown to him, was if the device was an iPhone killer or just a gimmick-offer in the same manner as most of the new smart watches. Apple (AAPL), I think LG is onto something here.
- Scratches heal themselves (yes, for real) and you could literally bend down on the phone (I placed it on a table and pressed down with decent force, without the division head even breaking a sweat). It's a bionic phone, and great for the clumsy!
- There is a silent wow factor to the larger screen size; it doesn't feel burdensome in your hand.
- The curved glass creates a bright looking screen (think throwback TV in terms of curve).
- There was a feel that this was a true computer in your hand, it had presence, not a device housing apps and facetime abilities.

THAT which is left undone will tie you up in knots.
Leominster Town were due to play Stone last Saturday, but Stone didn't want to play that day.
So Town sat Saturday out while St Martins, the side that (inexplicably) beat them 5-3 at Briarwood the previous Saturday lost 1-10 at their own home to Penncroft now just one place above them – on goal difference.
Town are scraping their boots this Saturday too. Wem wanted to make the journey down from north Shropshire on the Wednesday instead.
Bello di notte – as they say in Serie A.
Wem will arrive on a run few saw coming, topping the table after a 0-2 win over Salopian rivals Haughmond having taken out title pacesetters Wyrley 2-3 away the previous Saturday.
The Saturday that Town should have been playing Stone who beat Wyrley 1-0 on the following Wednesday.
Town, though, needed the breather. Talk at Briarwood pre-season was of a top three finish, results so far have cheapened that talk.
The opening game at home to Shenstone was thrown away, but a 2-2 draw at least earned Town their only point. They made the best of a Tuesday night at Wyrley but went down 5-1 – to six shots on goal.
Smethwick went one better, beating Town 6-1 with the Briarwood Boys broken by two goals either side of half-time.
Town then traded goals with St Martins in that 3-5 game but got the rough end of the deal, their inability to contain a lead costing them dear.
So, four games in, Town are on a single point with 18 goals against.
The question to be asked of Town, then, is not whether they can play at this level – they can. It's how they adapt to playing at this level. Together, the Briarwood Boys pulled themselves out of a tailspin that could have sent them down last season. Just four games into the new season and lying 15th in an 18 strong league they've got to do it all over again.
Right now though, they just want to get a game - their game - on.
See where this is going…

Sydney assistant coach Leigh Tudor made a presentation to the Essendon board on Monday in an indication that he is considered a serious candidate to coach the club next season.
Tudor, who worked under Mark Thompson at Geelong and is one of John Longmire's main lieutenants, made his presentation to the full board as the Bombers weigh up the candidates for the senior coaching position during James Hird's 12-month suspension.
The Bombers' decision on the interim coach for 2014 is imminent, with an announcement expected by Wednesday. If an outsider, such as Tudor, is appointed rather than internal candidates Thompson and Simon Goodwin, that person would be expected to be offered a continuing senior role in the coaching panel once Hird returns.
Tudor has already been offered an assistant coaching position at North Melbourne.
While Thompson's credentials as a two-time premiership coach speak for themselves - and he has recently indicated a willingness to fill the breach during Hird's exile - the club is determined to run a rigorous process and canvass different options before making an appointment.
When he left Geelong, Thompson ruled out taking on another role as senior coach and has publicly expressed reluctance to fill in for Hird. But his most recent public comment suggested he had had a change of heart.
''I said that I'd help in any way,'' he said on AFL 360 last week. ''If they want me to coach, I'd seriously consider it. I'm just worried about the club. Have I got my hunger back? I don't know. We'll find out.''
Hird had indicated that Thompson, who was fined $30,000 for his role in the Essendon supplements scandal, would be the ideal person to fill in.
Mark Harvey, an external candidate with a close connection to the club, has been touted as a possible replacement and is also understood to have spoken with the Bombers. He recently left his position as an assistant at the Brisbane Lions.
Goodwin filled in for Hird for the final match of the year and assumed some of the post-season duties of a senior coach.
Former Melbourne stand-in coach Neil Craig has also spoken with the Bombers, but sources believe he is more likely to be a candidate for a football department role. The Bombers also have to replace Sean Wellman, who has opted out of football.
Essendon is taking a similar process-driven approach to the appointment of a chief executive, with Ray Gunston acting as interim boss since Ian Robson stood down in May following the Ziggy Switkowski report into the supplements scandal.
The club board is believed to be canvassing other candidates in addition to Gunston, who has won points for his steadiness in a difficult and tumultuous period for the club.
Thompson and Goodwin are involved in the club's trade period dealings, which are being largely handled by list manager Adrian Dodoro.
The Bombers' coaching subcommittee is headed by board director Chris Heffernan and Gunston.
AFL Coaches Association chief executive Danny Frawley had initially been part of the selection process, helping to determine a job description and a list of candidates, but he has not been part of the interviewing process because it would conflict with his AFLCA.
Former Western Bulldogs and Richmond coach Terry Wallace helped to interview the candidates, before making a recommendation to the subcommittee and stepping aside.

After 800 years, Magna Carta auctioned for $24m
Talisman of liberty
the sold copy of the Magna Carta.
Photo: AP
NEW YORK: One of only 17 existing copies of the Magna Carta, the 800-year-old English royal manuscript setting out the rights of people, has sold at auction at Sotheby's for $US21.3 million ($24.8 million).
Arguably the most important document ever auctioned, the vellum manuscript was bought by a telephone bidder on Tuesday, selling for the lower range of its estimate of $US20-$30 million.
Most of the 17 copies belong to Britain's national archives, cathedrals or universities, while the only other copy outside Britain belongs to Australia (displayed at Parliament House in Canberra and subject to the indignity last year of a $25 million writedown to $15 million).
The manuscript enshrined the rule of law in England at a time of disagreements between King John and the English barons. It was issued in 1215 and confirmed as English law in 1297.
The Sotheby's vice-chairman and the auctioneer, David Redden, described the document, which required the king to accept that he was bound by law in the same way as his subjects, as "the first rung on the ladder to freedom" and "a talisman of liberty".
As well as enshrining the concept that no person is above the law, the document also establishes the right to a speedy trial by a jury of one's peers.
"It's actually amazing that this has come to auction; it's quite remarkable. It's the only time Magna Carta has ever been sold at auction and it's quite possibly the only time it ever will be," Mr Redden said.
He said while other documents could rival Magna Carta for historical significance, none were ever likely to be sold.
"There are other extraordinary documents, the draft of the Declaration of Independence in Thomas Jefferson's hand comes to mind, but that will never come to auction."
Mr Redden said he hoped whoever acquired the manuscript would make it available to the public. The copy had been on display at the US National Archives in Washington for 23 years.
"I do think this is one of the great inspirational documents of our civilisation and therefore it really doesn't do its work unless it's out in the open where people can see it."

Nathan Yoo has written dozens of science lesson plans, both for his high school peers and for fifth-graders at his former elementary school.
But he doesn't want to be a scientist or engineer or doctor – he simply loves science and wants to find better ways to share it and make it accessible to all.
"We just want to show them that science is super cool, and then explain it in a way they can understand it," said Yoo, 18, development co-director for the student-run network Imagiscience.
Since joining the Irvine-based program two years ago, Yoo quickly rose to become its chief content officer, a volunteer job that requires him to research and design simple scientific demonstrations that are used weekly by Imagiscience high school clubs across the state.
He's also expanded the students-teaching-students concept to his former elementary school, where he designed a four-week after-school science curriculum for fifth-graders. His lesson plans include soda bottle rockets, water-filtration systems and examining one's own skin cells under a microscope.
Despite his intensive focus on science, Yoo will be studying psychology, creative writing and a program called values and public life when he heads to Princeton University this fall.
The myriad science lessons he's written and delivered to students, he said, are mere training grounds for his ultimate goal – to study human motivation and how to influence it to effect positive change.
"I don't know how successful I could be as an engineer," Yoo said. "I've found myself to be a more people-oriented person. I want to understand the mechanisms about how people think and how to get them more motivated, more involved and interested in activities."
His career goal is to become either a senior college administrator or to work in youth leadership development.
Yoo also has demonstrated his leadership prowess with the Red Cross' Orange County chapter in Santa Ana. He's the sole youth to serve on its board of directors, and also serves as chairman of its all-volunteer youth-services division, which puts him in charge of more than 100 teen volunteers from across the region who work on projects like toy drives and disaster preparedness.
Yoo said he's driven by an intrinsic desire to share his gifts and talents with others. While this motivation can't be forced, he said, anyone can choose to focus on becoming this type of person.
"Teenagers are always trying to find their identity in high school, so why not make the person you want to be someone you like and are proud of," he said.

From work centers to prep tables, there are a variety of countertop prep and work areas available in a multitude of sizes and styles to fit any commercial need. Whether you're looking to add more room for more employees to prepare items or you're in need of some extra dish drying space, there's a table, workstation, or countertop for you.
Large pieces of equipment or bulk foods that aren't meant to be placed directly onto the floor will need a stand, but even floor model units can sometimes benefit from a movable stand to make cleaning the floor space underneath easier. Lift items off the floor for easy rearrangement and better floor access to ensure that your kitchen is kept clean.
One cannot understate the importance of kitchen storage. Bulk products, overflow items, and extra products can be safely and securely stored in back-of-house operation with the addition of well-placed shelving units. These units are also beneficial in the kitchen and prep areas where dishes, towels, and other daily-use items can be stored in bulk.
Undercounter units can only truly retain their usefulness with the installation of countertops. These extra table spaces can be used for presentation or preparation purposes, while beverage counters and tables achieve the same purpose but with specificity towards undercounter beverage storage in mind.
While your kitchen may do most of the food preparation, your waitstaff and hosts/hostesses are responsible for managing the happiness of your guests as soon as they step foot in your restaurant. Add stations and stands throughout your restaurant to keep workstations organized and to help retain restaurant flow for both employees and customers alike.
There are three primary types of shelving units, but keep in mind that accessory shelving (like undercounter shelving storage areas for stainless steel tables, for instance) are also available as an accessory to the primary product.
The gauge of your stainless steel basically describes the thickness and, thus, durability of the steel itself; the lower the gauge, the thicker the steel!
Like decorating a house, table settings enhance the aesthetics of the location while serving a pragmatic purpose.
Read More
Restaurant aesthetics should be both attractive and pragmatic. In fact, a well-designed restaurant will take both of these aspects into consideration. While many look at 'the bigger picture', every small detail contributes to the overall aesthetics of the restaurant. Tabletops are just one of the smaller details that need to be considered, as they'll see a lot of 'wear and tear', and your customers will be looking right at them for the duration of their meal.
Read More
Your kitchen setup truly isn't complete until you've invested some effort into well-placed and carefully-selected shelving units.

Winter Walking & Snow Clearing
To help improve public safety and mobility, the Sidewalk Clearing Bylaw #8463 requires residential sidewalks to be clear of snow and ice within 48 hours of a snowfall, and sidewalks in certain commercial and suburban areas to be cleared within 24 hours of a snowfall. If the City receives a report of an uncleared sidewalk, the site will be checked, and if necessary, the owner/occupant will be asked to clear it.
Residents are asked not to throw or shovel snow on the road because it can affect drainage and the safety of pedestrians or drivers. Cleared snow must be placed on your property or removed, and not placed on the roadway. There are exceptions for properties with no space for snow storage, such as businesses with parking meters along the sidewalk space
To report a bylaw violation, please contact our Customer Service Centre at 306-975-2476. Residents who are not able to clear their own sidewalks of snow could consider asking younger family members or neighbours for help, or perhaps the person who cuts their grass. Snow clearing services are also available online, in the phonebook, or in the newspaper.
Be a Snow Angel
If your neighbour is elderly, has health concerns or mobility restrictions, lend a hand by clearing their sidewalk.
If you receive help from a neighbour/relative – nominate them as a Snow Angel below or mail in their name and phone number to City of Saskatoon, 222 – 3rd Avenue North, Saskatoon SK S7K 0J5. Tell us how your Snow Angel has brightened your day. Once nominated, we'll send you're Snow Angel a thank you and enter them in a prize draw!
When clearing sidewalks, please exercise caution and care, especially during extremely cold weather.

Lucknow: The ashes of an the young student who died after being gang-raped were scattered in the Ganga river on Tuesday as reports of more attacks stoked a growing national debate on violence against women.
The death of the 23-year-old woman, who has not been named, prompted street protests across India, international outrage and promises from the government of tougher punishments for offenders.
Police on Tuesday confirmed they would push for the death penalty for her attackers—the force can recommend prosecutors pursue particular punishments in Indian trials.
The physiotherapy student was raped and tortured on 16 December by a group of men armed with a metal bar on a private bus in New Delhi. She died from her injuries on Saturday in a Singapore hospital.
Relatives scattered the woman's remains in India's largest river, which is sacred to the Hindu religion, during a small ceremony in the district of Ballia, Uttar Pradesh, where she was born, a senior local official told Reuters.
"The immersion of the ashes was a private affair, a family affair," said R.M. Srivastava, home secretary of Uttar Pradesh, the state where the ceremony took place.
'New year, new attacks'
Indian media reported a string of new attacks on Tuesday, including a woman set on fire, allegedly by a stalker, in Uttar Pradesh and another woman stabbed to death in a busy market district of eastern Delhi.
In a debate titled "New Year, New Attacks, New Rapes" on television network NDTV, lawyers and politicians from several parties promised fast action to tighten laws.
"Keep up the social pressure, socially ostracize these people," said Renuka Chowdhury, a senior member of the ruling Congress party.
Protesters braved chilly weather in New Delhi to hold candlelight vigils and small rallies on New Year's Day.
"I'm going to stand here until the government actually decides to give women some safety," one young woman told journalists. Other protesters brandished placards that read "First of January is a black day."
The attack revealed deep fissures in Indian society, where staunchly chauvinist views clash with a fast-modernising urban culture in which women play a growing role in public life.
The case also cast a spotlight on an epidemic of violence against women in India, where a rape is reported on average every 20 minutes. Media coverage of such crimes has intensified in the wake of the outcry over the Delhi attack.
Charges expected
Five men and a teenager have been detained over the attack and police sources on Tuesday said charges would likely be filed on Wednesday or Thursday.
Police are seeking death penalty against four of the accused, one senior police officer told Reuters.
They will also likely be charged with gang rape, abduction and destruction of evidence, he said. The juvenile can not be executed under Indian law, although the victim's brother has called for all the accused to be hanged.
Anger at the brutality of the assault and the slow-footed response from authorities spilled into the streets before Christmas, with police and protesters fighting running battles near the heart of government in Delhi.
The Indian Medical Association has questioned the decision to move the victim, who was suffering a massive blood infection and organ injuries, to Singapore, where she died.
On Tuesday police said they arrested a man who attempted to plant a low intensity explosive device near the house of one of the accused. The device was safely detonated, the force said. REUTERS

SJ Mercury/Reuters: Napster legal scrap could backfire on record IndustryJul 30, 2000, 19:09 (0 Talkback[s])
(Other stories by Michael Kahn)
[ Thanks to George Mitchell for this link. ]
"The decision to take on song-swap giant Napster Inc. could end up backfiring on the recording industry by stoking the already frenzied pace of trading music on the Internet, industry experts said on Saturday."
"A failure to negotiate with Napster may come back to haunt the industry because working with the Silicon Valley firm may be the best way to grab a piece of the online music pie, analysts add...."
"The lawsuit against Napster has probably contributed to most of that growth," said Bruce Fries, author of a book on the technology that allows users to trade music via the Internet. "Napster would never have existed if the major labels had fulfilled the demand for downloadable songs by major artists."

Nautical Flags: A Windows Screen Saver
- Nautical Flags: A Windows Screen Saver
- Nautical Flags: Download It Here
Inside Nautical Flags
Nautical Flags was written with Visual Basic 5.0. The code is organized in one Basic module and three form objects. The Basic module, Scrnsavr.bas, contains the routines common to all screen savers and is designed to be reused. The form object Display.frm contains the code for creating the screen saver images, including the hidden credits screen. The form object Config.frm contains the code for configuring the options in Nautical Flags. The last form object, About.frm, displays the copyright message that is displayed when the user clicks the About button in the Options dialog.
The biggest challenge in writing Nautical Flags was getting the many elements of a Windows-standard screen saver to work using Visual Basic 5.0 as the programming language. VB5 doesn't include detailed documentation on how screen savers function, so I studied the Windows API and did a lot of experimentation. I will pass on what I learned in the pages that follow.

As part of the evaluation of your disability claim, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will consider whether your medical findings and symptoms meet or "medically equal" findings and symptoms found in the Listing of Impairments. The Listing is a set of Social Security regulations organized by the systems of the body (e.g., musculoskeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive) and then by impairments (diseases) of those systems. For example, the Respiratory Listing covers impairments such as asthma, cystic fibrosis, lung transplant, and sleep related breathing disorders, to mention a few.
The Listing for a particular impairment provides specific medical findings and symptoms caused by that impairment. If you meet the Listing (i.e., your medical evidence shows that you have those medical findings and symptoms), you will be found disabled.
Even if your impairment does not meet the Listing of Impairments, you may be disabled if your impairment is medically equivalent to impairment in the Listing. For example, you may have multiple impairments, none of which meet a Listing, but cumulatively they are as severe as a Listing. Or you may have an impairment that is not included in the Listing, but is just as severe as a similar impairment that does appear in the Listing. An opinion from a medical expert hired by the SSA is necessary to determine if your impairment medically equals a listed impairment.
If your impairment does not meet or medically equal a Listing, you may still be found disabled if the SSA determines that you cannot do "past relevant work" and that you cannot adjust to other work because of your impairment.
For more information about Social Security disability claims, order a FREE copy of my book, Unofficial Guide to Social Security Disability Claims, and look through the rest of this website. If you need help with your disability claim, contact my office today at 410-823-8200.

Developer- and Publisher-specific Articles: Hitman: Absolution
Worlds collide with Deus Ex-themed DLC for Hitman: Absolution
Agent 47 is getting in touch with his conspiratorial side today with the launch of Deus Ex-themed DLC for Hitman: Absolution. Not only will Agent 47 be able to sport some futuristic duds with the Deus Ex Suit download, but he will also be able to pack Jensen's favorite pistol with the Zenith Gun pack. Alas, the good Agent still won't be able to hack into turrets.
Agent 47 is back on the hunt, Hitman: Absolution on store shelves
It's not easy being an assassin, even a very good assassin. Agent 47 has found that out the hard way, and now players can help him get back at those who double crossed him in Hitman: Absolution. Wanted by the police and finding himself in the middle of a conspiracy, Agent 47 must use whatever disguises and weapons he has at his disposal to see his mission through. Apparently, that barcode tattoo isn't nearly as telling a sign as I had assumed.
New video details Hitman: Absolution's dynamic world
Square Enix has released "Introducing the Living, Breathing World of Hitman: Absolution," a new video demonstrating the interconnected world that awaits players in IO Interactive's upcoming action title. Absolution will feature a more involved world than previous entries, populated with characters, both those crucial to the story and those simply living in the cities, going about their everyday life. The capabilities of IO's Glacier 2 engine, the new tech powering the series, is also highlighted.
Hitman: Absolution's Contracts Mode detailed in playthrough video
It's not easy being a virtual assassin—alliances shift, guns jam, people run. So to help everyone get up to speed on what's in store in Hitman: Absolution, Square Enix and I/O have released a new 18-minute playthrough video, with developer commentary, of the new Contracts Mode. In Contracts, players create their own custom hits by tweaking level, rules, and targets, and then share them online for others to try.
Hitman: Absolution gets Sniper Challenge, other pre-order extras
A few new pre-order items have been announced for Square Enix and IO Interactive's Hitman: Absolution. Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart are offering a suit and weapon combo, detailed below, while GameStop has thrown down the gauntlet with a standalone minigame: Sniper Challenge. Developed by IO Interactive, Hitman: Sniper Challenge will be available on May 15 on Live and PSN (August 1 on PC via Steam), months before Absolution's November 20 launch. As an added bonus, all unlocked items and upgrades in Sniper Challenge will carry over to Absolution.
Hitman: Absolution Professional Edition, pre-order info announced
Square Enix has announced a Professional Edition as well as several pre-order programs for Hitman: Absolution. The premium edition runs $79.99 and includes a clamshell box, hardcover art book, making-of development footage, and several in-game items: the Agency HX UMP submachine gun, Agency Jagd P22G pistol, and Agency SPS 12 semi-auto shotgun. Both the standard and premium versions are available for pre-order, and Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and Walmart are all running programs. Currently, the offers consist of the Bartoli Custom Pistol at Amazon, Bronson 1928M SMG at Best Buy, Sniper Rifle: Agency Kazo TRG at GameStop, and Krugermeier 2-2 Pistol at Walmart. Additional pre-order extras will be announced in the near future.

Lance Franklin is not considered a certain starter to face Hawthorn and Kurt Tippett is edging closer to a return but it's the injury to Mike Pyke which threatens to be Sydney's biggest concern before Friday night's blockbuster.
Pyke is in extreme doubt after straining his hamstring against Brisbane but the prognosis is more optimistic with Tippett and Franklin. Swans captain Jarrad McVeigh expected both Franklin and Tippett to be fit but conceded the glamour pair still had to train well to guarantee selection.
"At this point I'm not too sure, Bud's trying to recover as well as he can over the last two weeks and Tippo's a day-to-day thing through training," McVeigh said.
"Hopefully they'll both be right, then it comes to selection and the mix we want for the game. We'll wait and see."
It is shaping as an emotional Friday night for Franklin should he be passed fit to face his old club for the first time since his controversial defection to Sydney last year.
Franklin was a crowd favourite at Hawthorn, where he won two premierships, two Coleman Medals and four All Australian jumpers.
He will be hoping for a better time than Dale Thomas, who flopped for Carlton against Collingwood last week.
Given the number of Swans who started at other clubs, Franklin should have no shortage of teammates to seek out for advice on how to handle the occasion however they did not have to handle such a high-profile build-up.
"The pressure on him has been fairly high the whole year, I don't think it'll get much higher," McVeigh said.
"He'll be ready to go, raring to play no doubt. He wouldn't want to miss out, you always want to play well against your old team.
"It'll be no different, but everyone's watching."
Tippett's chances of playing his first senior game this season rose after a strong training session on Saturday.
Although recruited primarily as a forward, Tippett may be required in the ruck after Pyke's injury.
The Canadian big man will have scans on Monday to determine the seriousness of the hamstring injury which forced him to be subbed out in the second quarter of the Swans' victory over Brisbane.
His absence would leave the Swans very thin in an area which had been a major strength for the club before Franklin's recruitment forced Shane Mumford out the door.
Should Pyke be ruled out this week, as is expected, it will leave the Swans relying heavily on unproven big man Tom Derickx against Hawthorn's seasoned ruck pair of Ben McEvoy and David Hale.
Lewis Roberts-Thomson and uncapped teenager Toby Nankervis are in contention to play as a support to Derickx, who was recruited from Richmond last year.
Tippett played as a second ruckman in Adelaide but former Swan Jude Bolton was unsure on whether the Swans hierarchy would use the forward in such a role given his history of knee injuries.
"I doubt you'd risk him in the ruck, having had a dodgy knee," Bolton said on Channel Seven's AFL Game Day.
"It's an interesting thing. Have the Swans left themselves exposed in that sense?"
McVeigh, whose team has broken into the eight for the first time this year, regards the Hawks, along with Geelong, as one of the benchmarks of the competition.
"They continually play well. It doesn't matter what opposition they play against, they step up, they play at their level, a high consistent level every week," McVeigh said.
"That's what the great teams do and that's what they're doing at the moment.
"We have to bring high level pressure, then bring our work rate and good ball use and skills and hopefully it'll be a good contest."
McVeigh said the Swans' increased intensity at training had been reflected in each of their past three wins.
"We did it last night, now you step it up another level again and produce it against the best teams," McVeigh said.

The shallow-water component of the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Model Package emphasizes the regions of the system inside the 2-m depth contour. The model of these regions is unified with the systemwide model but places emphasis on locally significant components and processes, notably submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), sediment resuspension, and their interaction with light attenuation (Ke). The SAV model is found to be most suited for computing the equilibrium distribution of perennial species. Addition of plant structure and propagation are recommended to improve representation of observed trends in SAV area. Two approaches are taken to examining shallow-water Ke. The first compares observed and computed differences between deep- and shallow-water Ke. No consistent difference in observations is noted. In the preponderance of regions examined, computed shallow-water Ke exceeds computed deep-water Ke. The second approach directly compares Ke measured in shallow water with modeled results. Model values are primarily lower than observed, in contrast to results in deep water where model values exceed observed. The shortfall in computed Ke mirrors a similar shortfall in computed suspended solids. Improved model representation of Ke requires process-based investigations into suspended solids dynamics as well as increased model resolution in shallow-water regions.Download

Jeff Beahen, the former Elk River chief of police, is one of two finalists for the job of Rogers police chief.
The other is Lt. Ross Gullickson of Three Rivers Parks District.
A hiring decision is expected after the Rogers City Council interviews both candidates.
The Rogers City Council discussed their final steps in choosing their new police chief at their regular meeting May 8.
Five candidates were interviewed for the position by a group of 14 individuals, composed of city staff, local police chiefs and others. Of the 14 interviewers, 13 chose one individual, Jeff Beahen, as their top choice.
Bill Joynes, a consultant hired by Rogers to help select the new chief, recommended that the council take the unique step of advancing only Beahen to the final round of interviews.
"While in Elk River, he spent a tremendous amount of time in the community," Joynes said. "He's a great communicator. He fits the position to a T. Our level of comfort with him is much more than the other candidates."
Council Member Rob Bell was hesitant to change the selection process that had been carefully established to select the new chief.
"I think we would be committing a grave error in omitting the process and just narrowing it down to one," Bell said. "I have very little doubt that the outcome won't be the same, but I think it will be a significant challenge in the future for us to have skipped that part of the process.
"Six months from now, people will remember that the Rogers council cut corners and didn't go through the process. Let's honor what's been done so far and just complete it."
Bell's argument persuaded the council to proceed with more candidates. Joynes informed them that interviewing and performing background checks on more candidates will cost several thousand dollars more and the council decided to mitigate these costs by proceeding with only two candidates, Beahen and Gullickson.
Gullickson's significant credentials include his current position with the Three Rivers Park District, as well as several other local law enforcement agencies, and attendance at the FBI Academy.
The council plans to hold a public forum for the candidates in upcoming weeks and expects to have the new chief in place no later than the beginning of July.

How where/did it all begin?
I started Electric Ibiza in the beginning of 2010, after only graduating in 2009 with a first class honours degree in Contour Fashion at De Montfort University in Leicester. After graduating I moved to Ibiza, a small Balearic island off the coast of Spain. With my knowledge and passion for swimwear and lingerie, I decided to open a small boutique selling my lingerie and body wear designs and also making extravagant costumes for some of the dancers in Ibiza too. People started to love my work and Electric has just gone from strength to strength.
How would you describe your Style?
Eclectic yet sophisticated!
Do you have a Muse?
I love Aygness Deyn her style is amazing.
What Fabrics do you use and why?
The label has a high fashion feel, trying to push the boundaries of lingerie. I try to be different when choosing fabrics using unconventional lingerie fabrics such as wool, chiffon, leather and chains. Electric always opts for high quality fabrics. I use these fabrics to make each garment unique and make them wearable as underwear and outerwear pieces.
Travels-where have you been, where would you like to go and why?
I have been to India and Thailand- these places were so inspirational. Next on my list of travels is Las Vegas, LA and San Francisco.
Where do you draw your inspiration from?
Living in Ibiza is where I get most of my inspiration from. It is such an amazing place which brings together so many different people and so many different styles from around the world.

The following comment has been made on This week we discover more about the super hip, ultra hot new label Electric Ibiza- This collection seriously Rocks!

The tragedy in Connecticut has demonstrated to us in the most-horrific manner how vulnerable the children in our schools are to evil people bent on dying and taking as many innocents with them as they can. Shock value seems to count with these monsters, so children are high-value targets. How can we protect them without making our schools into prisons?
The knee-jerk reaction of some politicians is to call for more-stringent gun control laws. This would do nothing to make our children safe, but would score points for the aforementioned politicians with certain parts of their voting constituency. We have a Second Amendment, millions of guns are owned by law-abiding citizens and America would have to become Soviet Union II to confiscate all the guns and make us all "safe."
Neither should we station uniformed police alone in our schools. Any maniac bent on destruction would target these very visible officers first before the real mayhem starts.
What we should do is what we did for the airline industry.
We should have plain-clothes marshals in every school. He should not be stationed under some obvious "security" sign but blend in with faculty and staff. Teachers and administrative staff who are willing to submit to background checks and receive training should be allowed and even encouraged to arm themselves and carry concealed weapons, as many pilots have done. The school marshal would be aware of these and meet with them occasionally to discuss possible security scenarios and offer advice and continued training.
Do you know what the "gun free zone" signs posted all around our schools say to potential mass murderers? They say, "easy pickings." They won't any longer, if this plan is implemented.
I am not a teacher, but if I were I would feel responsible for the safety of my charges. Any murderer would have to go through me to get to "my" kids. I would like a fighting chance to defend them.

Matthias Bollmus '02 is an example of a young alumnus carrying out Carrolls mission of lifelong learning. He attributes Carroll for much of his accomplishments providing a diverse climate that continuously challenged him, and reawakened his desire for continuous learning.
Bollmus is a native of Germany who came to the U.S. following the fulfillment of his mandatory civil service. He arrived in Denver, Colorado studying in the international exchange program, Up With People. This international education organization works with youth in pursuit of their own global education and personal growth goals through service, music and travel. Following his youth experience with Up With People, he stayed on as a staff member for three more years. During that period he traveled to 16 countries and over 40 of the U.S. states. He recalls that period as a formative time in his life gaining an invaluable experience to leave home at a young age, live out of a suitcase, and stay with host families for four years.
Due to the amazing recruitment skills of Greet Provost '98, Director of International Student Admission, Matthias decided on Carroll for his undergraduate degree indicating it just felt right. Matthias enjoyed learning from many of the professors at Carrollbut the one that had the most profound impact on his life was Merlene Moody. She was not only was an exceptional advisor, but provided life lessons that Matthias carries on to this day. She was skilled at relating to the struggles of a non-traditional international student, and his own words, "kept me honest by calling me out when I was flat out wrong."
Moody was also instrumental in helping Bollmus find his first job. His last class at Carroll was an internship with the Milwaukee Brewers. He had long wanted a career in the professional sports field, but he quickly learned he had to go to "plan B" because of the limited pay and mobility options. Moody connected Matthias to alumnus, Jeff Cummisford '73, who owned a mortgage company. Bollmus called him up, sent him his resumè, had an interview the next day, and was hired the day after. Bollmus worked in the mortgage industry for 5 years as the Secondary Market Manager and Director of Wholesale Services. In 2007, Bollmus was looking for a change and applied for a part time position at Carroll where he ended up being offered a full-time position.
In the classroom, Bollmus is known as a strict but fair teacher always encouraging of students to take advantage of the small class sizes and the accessibility to their professors for help. He believes being a successful student is only half of the equation indicating you also need to build a strong network of people who can help you along the way. His favorite quote is "Hope is not a strategy." He emphasizes that you have to have a plan A, B, and Cand continuously work toward those goals. One cannot hope that things will work out or that things will fall into place; you need to take charge of your life.
Currently, Bollmus is an instructor in the business department. In addition to his professional and collegiate connection, he is also married to Carroll alumna, Kay (Wright) Bollmus '02. They live in Waukesha and have three children.

Ask Mac Questions and Get Answers from Experts ASAP
Welcome to JustAnswer.com, I would be happy to help!
thanks a lot
Are you in front of the computer at the moment?
As you power it on, I want you told down the Command and S buttons together...
You should see a lot of text appear on the screen
Whatever it stops on, I would like you to read that to me...
i get nothing but a white screen, no text
Ok... Try the same thing, Command and V key instead...
ok, one sec
same, absolutely nothing
just a white screen
You need to hold the keys down for around 10 -20 seconds
oh ok
i'll try that
Both together
You can let go when you see some text
would you like for me to try the command + s again?
or command v
No thanks, XXXXX XXXXX is fine
Hmmmm that is very strange...
Does the computer make any sort of beeping noises at all?
yeah, i thought so
Does it make the chime noise that it would usually make when you turn it on?
it makes the usual make sound when it boots
yes, that chime noise
oops "mac" sound when it boots
have you got another keyboard we can try on the Mac? Was that one working ok last time you checked?
I left for a few hours earlier and when i returned my computer was completely off
the command option p-r works
It re-chimes?
but still shows the white screen
Ok, so your keyboard is working...
when i hold down option, i get the cursor but no options for hdds
My suspicion is you have a failed hard drive
But I just wanted Verbose Mode (Command V) to verify that for me
Generally when you get stuck on the white screen, it's a failed hard drive...
yeah, that did nothing
Unless you have just installed an Update of some sort, then it may be a software corruption
I bet that's a hard task with this imac
Which iMac do you have?
24" aluminum
2.4 ghz c2d
2 years old?
Yeah... Those are near impossible to repair yourself
You have to remove the glass panel, and remove most of the insides, before you get to the hard drive
And then get the glass on, without leaving any fingerprints or dust particles behind on the underside,
haha.... yeah, i don't see that happening
It shouldn't be too expensive to have replaced at an Apple Store
Around $200 max I would say
is it possible to opt for a ssd drive?
even if this one is sata
Not at the Apple store...
But at the moment, it probably wouldn't be worth it for an SSD
yeah, very expensive
They make more sense in a portable machine
Can you try Command V one more time...
Just hold it down for almost aminute
a minute
If the hard drive has mechanically failed, Migration Assistant wont do anything
so, i can't retrieve my data?
NOTHING is impossible
But it can be VERY expensive
well, i do have time machine
so that's good
i'll try command v now
Ok... So if you have backed up, you are good to go, once they install a new drive
Sorry to ask you to try again, but its very unusual for that NOT to work...
its no problem.... ill do anything at this point
Can you see the Apple logo?
Does that come up?
it never makes it to the logo
Does your computer usually boot in to your desktop, or do you need to enter a password?
no password
A login password
now that you ask that
shoot, i can't remember
Is the computer on at the moment?
If it is, please turn it off and turn it on again and let it sit there for a minute
No Command V or Command anything
thanks for trying to help me
No problem
I was about read to drop kick this thing
That sometimes helps ;)
Ok... Would you say the computer has been on for a minute now?
Can you press volume buttons on your keyboard up/down and tell me if you hear anything?
i don't hear anything
You have pressed the Volume up button a number of times yeah? And you don't have the computer connected to any speakers?
that's correct
Well it was a long shot
I thought it might be that your SCREEN was the problem
haha, thank god it's not
That's what was all white... If you can hear the volume buttons up/down then it means your computer was working, but we just couldnt see it!
But it looks like its a plain old Hard Drive failure
You can book an appointment at your nearest Apple Store from this weblink: http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
that sucks... glad it happened after the semester ended
thanks a lot, man
No probs
Merry Xmas

Hopkinsville Vacation Packages
Visiting just one town or city, regardless of its popularity, usually only offers you a glimpse into the wider cultural and natural fabric of a region. So try to allow a few days to discover Western Kentucky's other cultural and natural attractions. Roughly 14 miles (23 kilometers) away you'll find Oak Grove. Head here to visit the War Memorial Park and Fort Campbell.
Bowling Green, is another interesting spot to explore. It is approximately 60 miles (97 kilometers) from Hopkinsville and offers a number of interesting tourist attractions, such as Beech Bend Park, Sloan Convention Center and CrossWinds Golf Course. Lost River Cave, Riverview at Hobson Grove and Carroll Knicely Conference Center are a number of other visitor attractions worth checking out for those who have more time on their hands.
The Western Kentucky area provides visitors a wide range of laid-back pastimes, such as shore fishing and wildlife watching.
When it's finally time to bid goodbye to Hopkinsville, head to the nearest major airport located in Nashville, 70 miles (113 kilometers) away.

Live will not learn a specific MIDI control from my MIDI device
- Live Versions: All
- Operating System: All
Some MIDI controllers, such as some touch-sensitive motorized faders, can send complex MIDI messages. The control may be sending a MIDI message when it is first touched or moved and another message when the control is released. Live may not assign the control correctly because it is learning the last MIDI message that it receives. Below is a solution for controls that have this behavior:
- Turn on MIDI Map Mode in Live.
- Select the parameter you want to control.
- Touch and hold the control on the MIDI device.
- Turn off MIDI Map Mode.
- Release the control on the MIDI device.

When picking out an ensemble, us Fashionistas like to start from scratch—maybe we're sure we want to wear that new pair of booties or work a collar around a new bib necklace. But give a girl from NYU a pair of pieces she knows will be worn by a few of her friends, and she will style an outfit that screams her own name.
So when Juicy Couture sent over a tulle skirt and a "Couture is Here" shirt comfortable enough to live in, our stylish senses were sparked in a New York minute. The nine of us NYU Fashionistas flaunted the fads we're crazy about in a way that reveals, at the very least, the legitimacy of our reputation for diversity.
Since the Juicy Couture x College Fashionista campaign's aim was to divulge each of our distinctive flairs, I'd deem our shoots a success. But which one of our getups galvanized you the most—which look gets your vote?
Check out the exclusive CollegeFashionista X Juicy Couture Facebook app to like and comment on your favorite Fashionista's look.
How do you couture your look?
Sarah Wasilak, Sophomore: By adding a tweed green blazer with black embellished studs, leopard print wedges and a cuff, a thin headband and a single, gold chain.
Danielle Shpaner, Sophomore: By throwing on a vintage tribal print blazer, a metal floral cuff, turquoise jewelry, and brown slingback open-toed clogs. I also use my beaded bracelet as a headband to polish off a top knot bun.
Claire Glassford, Sophomore: With a western flair by slipping on my favorite cowboy boots, a silver and turquoise accented belt, and a pair of dangling earrings. And what's western without a bit of denim?
Juliet Menz, Sophomore: With an abundance of gold jewelry and neutral colored beaded bracelets. With a green cargo jacket and a pair of combat boots, my style is military-esque chic.
Dani Rait, Sophomore: With a bohemian vibe. I wear braided black flatforms, a twisted turban, and a long, floral knit vest. For extra funk, I knot my tee, throw on a pendant chain, and bundle a bunch of beads around my wrists.
Carolyn Amurao, Junior: By gathering some of my vintage pieces: elastic belt, printed scarf, embellished cuff watch, to create a dainty, feminine look.
Ariana Marsh, Junior: To couture my look, I went with a modern twist on the retro 80's prom look. The poofy tulle skirt was definitely my inspiration to draw from past fashions, and so with it I paired a high bun complete with an oversized black bow and a shock of color a la fuchsia stilettos.
Molly Henning, Junior: I "couture-d" my look by playing with the drama of the tutu. Each of the pieces I chose to accessorize with have their own drama that complement the skirt. I usually try to wear one statement piece, be it a hat, cat-eye glasses, or a cropped blazer with accentuated shoulders so my outfit isn't competing with itself. That tutu has enough personality in it to hold its own against all of those accessories, so I decided to wear them all and create a look that was a little outrageous, but totally me.
Tanya Chen, Junior: I like to contrast simple pieces with vibrant accents then I paired it off with some leopard oxfords to keep it fun 'cause I AM wearing a theatrical tulle Juicy skirt.

Santa Claus came to town
Santa took a break from his busy schedule to visit Woodbury on Saturday for the annual "Breakfast with Santa" event at Central Park.
The event is sponsored by the Woodbury Recreation Department.
"Santa Rob," whose real name is Rob Mathewson, has been donning the "Santa suit" for 13 seasons now. During the off-season, "Santa Rob" is a Catholic school teacher at Epiphany in Coon Rapids.
In between his busy schedule, "Santa Rob" sat down last week with the Woodbury Bulletin for a short chat about life as Father Christmas.
Woodbury Bulletin: How did you first get started being Santa Claus?
Santa Rob: The first time I did it, I worked at Davanni's Pizza and we decided to have a promotion and they needed a Santa Claus of course for Christmas. So, I volunteered. I got hooked ever since. There's just so much excitement - I enjoy the joy from the kids.
WB: What are some of your favorite things about playing Santa Claus?
SR: First of all, I don't play. Most of us who do Santa, we look at it as a calling because making people happy. Bringing the joy is what I look for. It's what makes me so happy. Watching the kids jump up and down with joy, having their pictures taken, getting kids to remember what the reason is for the season and being able to celebrate it with everyone else - that's what keeps me going. I could have a bad day at my job and put my Santa Claus outfit on, go out and see the kids smile - that can make such joy in my heart.
WB: What do you enjoy most about "Breakfast with Santa?"
SR: Just all the kids together. It's great. I get to go in while they're just about ready to finish up with breakfast, I go around to all the tables and say hi to the kids. When the kids try to decide whether they want a picture with Santa or they want to finish their sausage - it's funny to see what they choose.
WB: What is the most common gift request Santa Claus receives?
SR: This year so far it's been one of the i Pods. That's a big thing nowadays because there's so much that even the kids can do. Otherwise in the past it varies from dolls or some sort of toys. The electronic ones are real popular now.
WB: How does Santa decide on his naughty or nice list?
SR: Well, for the most part I truly believe that kids are overall nice. There are a couple things that they do because they're kids. But kids are always nice.
WB: Do you ever get the children who are afraid of Santa?
SR: Oh yeah, lots of those. You just do the best you can. I try not to push it with anybody. If a mom really wants a photo with Santa and their kid is screaming, I'll do it, that's not a problem, but I just don't want to make the children feel uncomfortable.
What does Santa Claus want for Christmas?
I want a new sleigh.
WB: What does the rest of Santa Claus' year consist of?
SR: I'm a motorcycle rider. I enjoy going out and riding. It's beautiful out on two wheels. One of the let downs though after Christmas is that Santa gets put out the door. We kind of get blue.
WB: What's your favorite thing about Christmas?
SR: Being with family and sharing the joy. I am Catholic, so I believe in keeping Christ and Christmas and that feeling all year long. I try to spread that love and cheer all year - that's my favorite part. Whether it's December 25 or June 25, it should be the same.

I am trying to set up a Cron Job. When I run it says that it is inserted. However when I enter my database nothing is in there.
Does each part column of a cron need to be correct for it all to work. For example if I have the code for column corrrect but one wrong will it now work at all?
However, when I manually enter information into the database I can echo it. But I cant Cron Job it in there.
what command are you trying to put into cron?

Drag the line on the map to calculate the driving distance for a different route.
If you want to verify these driving directions
or look for another possible route, you can try
Google Maps, Bing Maps, or MapQuest.
The total driving distance from Hartford, CT to Boston, MA is 102 miles or 164 kilometers.
Your trip begins in Hartford, Connecticut. It ends in Boston, Massachusetts.
If you are planning a road trip, you might also want to calculate the total driving time from Hartford, CT to Boston, MA so you can see when you'll arrive at your destination.
You can also calculate the cost of driving from Hartford, CT to Boston, MA based on current local fuel prices and an estimate of your car's best gas mileage.

I thought of something that might be fun to watch as the web site grows...a hit counter (I'm sure there's technical name, but I don't know what it is).
I noticed you can tell when there is a spike in activity. It might be kind of cool to see how many hits your site gets over time.

Mobile operators must not neglect enterprises' mobility solution needs or they will be marginalised, according to a new report, Seizing the Opportunities from Enterprise Mobility, published by Analysys.
Enterprises account for a large proportion of total mobile service revenue, their share reaching 37% in Western Europe and 39% in the USA in 2006. However, mobile operators put most of their effort into the mass market, where they can sell the same set of services to a very large number of consumers.
"Neglecting the enterprise market is a risky strategy", says report co-author, Dr Alastair Brydon. "Mobile operators in developed markets are finding it increasingly difficult to boost their revenues from consumer services, despite the advent of 3G services and handsets.
Furthermore, in the absence of comprehensive enterprise mobility solutions from the cellular industry, the IT community is exploiting the increasing adoption of WLAN, particularly in North America. This threatens to cannibalise cellular revenue."
Key findings from the new report include:
* Mobile services and applications can bring major benefits to enterprises, including cost savings, productivity gains and strategic advantages. However, the take-up of enterprise mobility solutions is still relatively restricted, being limited to, for example, senior executives and mobile workers that are critically dependent on mobile communications.
* A battle to seize control of critical parts of the enterprise mobility market has developed between cellular and WLAN communities.
* A number of technological breakthroughs - such as indoor base stations (picocells and femtocells) and IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) - will enable mobile operators to substantially improve their enterprise mobility solutions.

Why do hard Drives Fail?
Since hard drives are mechanical devices, they will all eventually fail. While some may not fail prematurely, many hard drives simply fail because of worn out parts.
Heat, Vibration, Static Electricity, Dust, Power Surges, Friction of Internal Parts, Dropping the PC/Laptop are all culprits behind hard drive failures.
How can you tell when a Hard Drive is Failing?
Here are a few reasons for a failing hard drive:
# You may start to notice intermittent read/write failures
# The hard drive LED light never goes off
# Unexplained crashes of your operating system
# Running CHKDSK shows bad sectors
# The hard drive takes a long time to come up
# Accessing, opening, or saving files are taking an awfully long time
At this point you will want to:
# Make sure you have a BACKUP of your data!
# Perform a test on your hard drive to check for possible failure
I talk about performing backups elsewhere in this website, so let's look at checking your hard drive for errors….
Checking your Hard Drive
The first point to make here is that NOT ALL odd occurrences mean your hard drive is failing. It could be a virus, file corruption, damaged boot area, hardware conflict or even a power lead coming loose!
The second point is, unless you know what you are doing NEVER remove the hard drive from the computer…
What we are going to do is simply run a small utility to run a "diagnostic" on the physical drive so see if there are any issues you need to be warned about.
You can do this one of 2 ways:
#1 – Use the manufacturers hard drive diagnostic utility
I find these very useful if the hard drive is causing problems loading the operating system and/or keeps crashing after a few minutes of use, as they do not require Windows to be running. (They usually run in DOS and boot from a Floppy or CD Drive.)
You will need to know the manufacturer of your hard drive and download the files needed from their website.
Samsung Hard Drive Diagnostic Utility
#2 – Use a 3rd Party Diagnostic Utility
If you are only at the stage of suspecting that you have a possible issue with your hard drive, and windows is stable enough. Then I suggest using a 3rd party utility to inspect your hard drive. This is also the best option for the non-technical user.
There are a few applications on the market. My favourite is HD Tune
There are 2 versions available
HD Tune (The basic version free for personal use.)
HD Tune Pro (The fully featured version with a 15 day trial.)
They are available from:
I suggest you download the Pro version as it has more diagnostics and you get a full 15 days to trial the utility.
Don't get bogged down in all the tests and results. There is an excellent manual that is in the folder where the utility gets installed (Program Files > HD Tune Pro > hdtunepro.pdf).
I suggest running the following:
Error Scan: scans the surface for physical errors, should be ALL green!
File Benchmark: measures the file performance on your hard drive.
In general the "write" values are going to be higher than the "read" times. If you see any widley varying results then this may be an indicator of potential problems.
Extra Tests: includes several quick tests to show the most important performance parameters (read/write).
The results I would pay attention to are: Sequential read outer / Sequential read middle / Sequential read inner
The "inner" time should be the higher figure. Again if the results vary widley then there may be a potential problem.
You do need to use your judgement when interpreting the results. However if there is any sign of odd results make sure your data is fully backed up and consult a professional PC repair person.

LINK: Rakim interview on Pitchfork
In a new interview with Rakim Allah on Pitchfork, the God speaks on his successful tour, recording his next album and why hip-hop needs to come together to save itself.
"When they created jazz years ago it was the best thing to happen since fried ice cream. But then you look at it now– it's not so popular as far as [being] universal. The jazz lovers still support their music, but when you look at it on the wide span it went from being the only thing to one of the many. The same thing can happen in hip-hop if we take it for granted and don't cherish it."

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I was in a minor fender bender over a month ago, and just had a personal injury claim filed against me. Can they do that that much later?
One month? I'm surprised it's that fast. No, really.
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in PA is two years. Typically, sometime after the accident a claim is filed with insurance, who then (most of the time) pays it. The cases that don't get paid out right away linger, sometimes right up until the two year mark. THEN a case is filed.
So, yeah. A month is really quick.Ask a similar question
Yes. As long as the claim is filed within the statute of limitation in your jurisdiction (Pennsylvania). It would be prudent to contact your insurance carrier as soon as possible to alert them of the claim (if they are not already aware) and they will handle the claim and assign an attorney in the event that the injured party files a lawsuit.
This advice should not be construed as forming an attorney-client relationship.Ask a similar question
A suit may be brought up to 2 years after the date of the accident, so a month later is within the legal period. If you are insured, notify your insurance company now; and send them a copy of the lawsuit. If you are not insured, you would be best advised to hire a local attorney who specialized in auto accident defense to represent you.
Yes. In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations is 2 years for car accident cases.

Personally, I HATE getting advice on this stuff from the Internet because it seems that everyone uses different codes to achieve whatever they're after. To help you in a way I would have liked to have been helped, I was creating a three-column Table. In the first column, I wanted CSS to close up some writing within a graphic box. The tactic is deceptively difficult if you're not using a template.
Note what a serious disaster this is. Anyone visiting will think you're on crack. The Borders specified in the CSS go WAY outside the width specified in BOTH the CSS where the Width, you can see, is 144px, and HTML table where the width is only 150.
It takes these three #CSS elements to create a nice, graphic capped object on the page. Since I didn't change the TOP or BOTTOM, we're ignoring these later. The BACKGROUND is RED so you can see what's happening. It turns out that there are TWO solutions to our explosive problem.
Eliminating the WIDTH attribute from CSS and adding MARGIN-LEFT and MARGIN-RIGHT to AUTO was actually the surprise solution because I thought we had to also get rid of the PADDING which I know Firefox/Flock/Mozilla hate. In the next example, you see that AUTO Margins become 3px (150px MINUS 144px is 6 divided by two [for centering]) and PADDING disappears shrinking the height of the graphic boxes but allowing the letters to go end to end.
What we learn is that when CSS is an element INSIDE a table, let the TABLE control the overall width. When removing the "Width:144px" from the CSS, everything worked out pretty well. Margin-left/right: AUTO is nice but better set to 3px in this example because the math is so strict anyway. Where PADDING used to give me a headache, it's nice to see in the second example that it is renderable perfectly in Flock and keeps the words off of the sides.
So, again, if you have a TABLE where CSS will tightly control an element similar to what's pictured, let the TABLE control the WIDTH and accurate MARGINS controlled in CSS are my best advice.

How Can a Sewer Line Camera Inspection Benefit My Grayson Home?
Drain and sewer camera inspections have been modernized in recent years. These advanced systems are capable of providing clear imaging at impressive resolutions. They can pan and be positioned at different angles, providing a complete view of the condition of the system. These systems are capable of detecting hairline cracks, pipe damage, intrusion and other issues that may result in costly repairs if not identified quickly. In being able to pinpoint specific problem areas, property owners are able to improve safety and avoid potential daily interruptions, which could result from major damages.
Here are a few plumbing problems we see on a weekly basis:
Jammed garbage disposals are less damaging than other plumbing issues but are no less urgent. An inefficient garbage disposal can actually cause drain clogs, as food items are not broken down properly. Our technicians will inspect your garbage disposal and determine if a repair or complete replacement is more appropriate.
Pipe problems, including burst pipes, are challenging because they can often go unnoticed for a period of time. Your pipes can deteriorate due to old age, mineral deposit buildup, corrosion, an error in construction, and other factors. For damaged pipes due to corrosion, we will perform repiping services to replace your old pipes with newer, more durable material. Severely damaged sewer pipes will need to be repaired using trench/trenchless methods or pipe relining. Ask us about our professional sewer line repairs.
Running toilets are also common problems that are often caused by worn fill valves, a broken flapper, or a leaky flush valve. These are simple repairs that our technicians can accomplish in a matter of minutes.
We can repair these and more. Click here for information on plumbers in Lawrenceville.

Green Glowing Object Connecticut
April 13, 2012 by staff
Green Glowing Object Connecticut, Connecticut authorities said they did not find anything after a state trooper and another witness saw a "whale-sized" object falling from the sky. A person driving through Connecticut's northwest reportedly called authorities around 2 a.m. on Tuesday. The object was huge, the size of whale, and glowed a bright green as it fell from the sky into Bantam Lake, reported the Republican-American of Waterbury.
At the same, a state trooper 10 miles away in Warren reported to dispatchers that something was falling out of the sky near Bantam or Morris. He was unable to specify the location, reported the Daily Mail.
Emergency crews traveled up and down Bantam Lake from the air and water, searching for debris. But they did not find any signs of a crash or the mysterious flying object.
Jon Nowinski of the Smoking Gun said there have been several reports in the area of glowing objects falling to the sky, which were believed to meteors. But no one has reported any of the objects to be so big.
